Reimu hummed to herself as she was sweeping the grounds of the shrine before she put it up. "There we go." She said and then walked inside the Shrine to make herself some tea and then walked out, sitting on the porch and took a deep breath and took a sip, enjoying the peace and quiet…
"Hey Reimu!"
…That lasted about five seconds.

Reimu opened her eyes. "Hello, Suika."
"How come you went on a grand adventure without me?"
"What, did you get jealous?"
"And bored."
Reimu laughed a little. "So, I was planning on heading over to the Mushroom Kingdom. Want to come with?"
"Heck yeah!" Suika grinned as Reimu finished her tea.
"Let's go." She said as they walked to the Warp Pipe and hopped in, while Marisa came flying by.
"I was planning on heading there anyway!" Marisa said and then flew in.

BGN: Toad Town (Mario and Luigi: Bowser's Inside Story)
Reimu and Suika popped out of the Warp Pipe. "Whoa!" Suika exclaimed and then looked around. "Are we in the Mushroom Kingdom?"
"Yes. We're not in Gensokyo anymore."
"Awesome!" Suika said and then darted off.
"Suika, wait!" Reimu exclaimed before sighing. "Oh, that girl." She said, shaking her head with a chuckle, then heard the sound of the Warp Pipe being used as she turned to see Marisa sitting on the edge of the pipe.
"Fancy meeting you here." Marisa said.
"You saw us go in, didn't you?"
"Yup." Marisa chuckled and then hopped off. "So, where's Suika heading off to?"
"No idea." Reimu replied and then saw something in the corner of her eye. "Oh, there she goes."
"This place is so cool! I can't believe that random pipe leads to an awesome place like this!" Aya exclaimed, taking pictures of everything. "Front page scoop! Eat your heart out, Hatate!"
"Eh, ignore her. She's in her own world." Marisa said as they walked around Toad Town, looking into the sights such as Coconut Mall, Boomerang Bro Hair Salon, Ice Bro's Soft Served Ice Cream, Koopa Kronicle, Shy Guy Buffet, Gadd Science Incorporated, Town Square, just to name a few locations in the town.
"Man, the business district is amazing." Reimu said as they walked past a movie theater.
"Lakitu's Home Movie Theater." Marisa read. "Now playing: Smash Bros: Endgame, Shazam starring Count Cannoli, Scuttle Bug-Man: Far From Home, Detective Pikachu, The Dino King, Toads in Black, and… Sonic the Hedgehog."
"Interesting movie titles… but wait, what's this?" Reimu pointed to a window.
"Coming this Thursday, an Iwata Documentary." Marisa read. "…What's an Iwata? Is that a fancy name for ice cream?"
"Must be a well-known actor." Reimu shrugged. "Though, this Sonic guy could definitely use a makeover."
"Eh, I think it's fine. Not like anyone's going rabid on this guy or anything." Marisa said.
"I suppose you're right." She said as they kept going when they heard a commotion nearby. "Huh?"
"HELP! HEEEEELP! CRAZY WOMAN IS IN THE RESTAURANT!" A Shy Guy yelled, as they turned their attention to the Shy Guy Buffet, and Youmu was desperately trying to drag Yuyuko out.
"Save… some… for the rest of them!" Youmu grunted, trying to drag her out.
"But it's All You Can Eat!" Yuyuko argued as Myon tried to push her out, but to no avail.
"They don't mean that literally! Nnngh! Myon, put your back into it!"
Marisa and Reimu sweatdropped before walking away from the scene. "So, you think Peach is in the castle?" Marisa asked.
"Maybe. Thought I'd check the sites, ya know?"
"Fair enough."
"Hey! Nice of you to drop by!" A voice caught their attention as they turned to the Bros walking over to them.
"Hey guys!" Marisa waved. "We're just checking in… whatever this place is called."
"It's called Toad Town." Mario replied.
"Oh, thank you."
"So, what are you guys doing?" Marisa asked.
"Oh, we were heading on over to the Smash Mansion. Peach is already there. Want to come?" Luigi asked. "Visitors are always welcome."
"…The Smash what now?" Reimu asked.
"Oh, you mean, Smash Bros: Endgame?" Marisa asked.
"No no no, that's a movie, this is different." Mario chuckled and saw Luigi fuming. "Bro, Tabuu's dead. It's all over." Mario said.
"I know… I still hate what they did to Palutena." He grumbled.
"What's with him?" Marisa asked.
"He's a fan of the Nintendo Cinematic Universe." Mario whispered.
"Ah… I have no idea what that is."
Luigi took a deep breath, and then putting up a smile. "Come on, we'll show ya!" He grinned and then they guided them to the Smash Mansion, hopping into a Warp Pipe for fast travel.

When they popped out of the Warp Pipe, Reimu and Marisa looked on to see a huge mansion in front of them. "Oh. My. Goodness." Marisa said in awe.
BGM: Menu (Super Smash Bros Ultimate)
"Come on!" Mario called to them as they walked to the Mansion as the girls followed, seeing statues of various Smashers and then Master Hand and Crazy Hand, then they walked in and saw a huge living room.
"Whoa…" Reimu said as they walked around.
"This is where we sometimes hang out, but there are different areas in the mansion we also hang out in." Luigi informed as they walked around. "This here is the game room, where we play air hockey, billiards, foosball, board games, card games and even video games." He said and then they went to a different area. "This here's the infirmary in case if you get injured during training."
During the tour, they showed off the grand hallways, a home movie theater, a large cafeteria and kitchen, an indoor pool, the backyard was humongous and had an outdoor pool, a basketball court and a lot of other neat things in the backyard area.
"So, what's that lake out in the distance?" Reimu asked.
"Lake?" Luigi asked before it hit them. "Oh… that lake. I recommend not swimming in it."
"What's wrong?" Marisa asked.
"Let's just say there's a creature in there that doesn't take kindly to people entering its territory." Mario explained.
"Ah, there you two are!" A voice caught their attention as they turned to see Master Hand approaching them.
"WHAT THE HELL?!" Marisa and Reimu yelled.
"Who might these two be?" Master Hand asked.
"This is Reimu and Marisa." Luigi replied.
"Ah! So these are the girls that Peach was going on about." Master Hand mused. "Come on, right this way." He said and then they followed him into a lounging area where some of the Smashers were at, consisting of Peach chatting things up with Zelda and Daisy over tea, Link was snoring and Young and Toon Link were attempting to pull a prank on him, Pit was eating Floor Ice Cream while chatting with Palutena and Lucina on some bean bag chairs, Dark Pit was leaning against a wall, Bayonetta was reading a book, Sonic was happily munching on a chili dog, Yoshi was napping on a bean bag chair and Akira was striking up a conversation with the Phantom Thieves.
"Oh hey guys!" Peach waved them over as Reimu and Marisa joined them while the Mario Bros walked over somewhere else. "Reimu, Marisa, this is Princess Zelda of Hyrule and Princess Daisy of Sarasaland. Two of my best friends. Zelda, Daisy, these are the two I was talking about."
"Oh, so you're the badass witch I've heard so much about!" Daisy grinned.
Zelda giggled cutely. "It's a pleasure to meet you both."
"You too." Reimu smiled.
"So, what's Gensokyo like?" Zelda asked.
"Well, you see, Gensokyo is-"
Peach's phone went off. "Oh, excuse me for a second." She said and then answered it. "Hello? Uh-huh… WHAT?!" She yelled rather loudly, getting the attention of everyone in the room. "Okay, I'll be right there, Toadsworth!"
End BGM
"What's up?" Palutena asked.
"It's Bowser… he's attacking the castle again, but… it's different this time. Toadsworth said it looks like Bowser ate two Mega Mushrooms… and it looks like he's not alone this time!"
"WHAT?!" The Bros, Reimu and Marisa yelled.
"I can send you guys over there in a flash." Palutena said.
"You can do that?" Reimu asked.
"Of course." She nodded. "Just stand right next to me."
"Okay." Reimu nodded as Palutena summoned her staff and then raised it up to teleport the small group in a heavenly light and transported them to the Mushroom Kingdom.
BGM: Bowser Jr's Airship Armada (Super Mario Galaxy)
"Oh my goodness!" Peach exclaimed.
"BWAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!" Bowser laughed. "Surprised?! I'm HUUUUUUGE!"
"What the heck are you doing?!" Marisa asked.
"I'm plotting on taking over the universe once more!" Bowser laughed. "And I'm not doing it alone!"
"What, Kamek got huge too?" Mario asked.
"OHOHOHOHO! He means me!" A voice said as Eggman showed up in his Eggmobile.

BGM: E.G.G.M.A.N. (Sonic Adventure 2)
"Dr. Eggman?!" Palutena exclaimed in shock.
"Ohohoho! Surprised to see me?"
"Are you actually going to take over the universe… with Bowser?" Palutena asked.
"Yes indeed!" Eggman chuckled. "We are going to take over the universe together, and none of you are going to get in our way!"
"You won't get away with this!" Peach exclaimed. …I can't believe I actually said that cliche. She thought.
Palutena clenched her fists. "I'll be right back." She said, teleporting back to the Mansion.
"I'll knock you down, big guy!" Marisa exclaimed, flying over to Bowser with a yell, only for Bowser to back hand her, sending her back and hitting the ground hard enough to go through the ground and slide a few feet.
"Marisa!" Reimu exclaimed and then clenching her fists. "You son of a…"
"Ohohohoho! Like a witch like you could take on a giant Koopa King!" Eggman scoffed.
"EGGMAN!" A voice yelled as Eggman turned to see Sonic running to him.
"Ah, Sonic the Hedgehog. I was expecting you." He said, pressing a button as a tractor beam of sorts put Sonic in his place.
"Nnngh!"
"So why are you telling us this?" Mario asked.
"It's what bad guys do, duh!" Bowser roared. "Thought we'd give you a heads up before all of you are enslaved from the both of us!" He laughed. "With the Grand Stars on our side, we'll be unstoppable!" He exclaimed.
"Take care!" Eggman exclaimed and then they were carried away in another ship.
"Nnngh, another Egg Carrier…?!" Sonic asked in surprise as they flew off.
End BGM
"We have to stop them. Now!" Mario said.
"Right." Peach nodded. "…On the bright side, at least I'm not kidnapped for once. Wonder if Eggman talked him out of it?" She wondered.
Reimu went over to Marisa, who was still dazed. "Are you okay?"
"Mmph… got the wind knocked out of me, but I should be okay…" Marisa groaned as she got back up, cracking her back. "What was that all about?"
"I think it means we're going back into space, if Bowser is using the Grand Stars." Mario said.
"And with Egghead involved, that's not good." Sonic said and then folded his arms. "I say we put a stop to them."
"But how do we do that?" Reimu asked. "All the Lumas sacrificed themselves in that black hole and Rosalina's nowhere to be found."
"Perhaps we need to go on a flying vessel." A voice said as they turned to see Youmu rolling a ball shaped Yuyuko to them, who was rubbing her belly happily.
"Hmm, I could get Tails to fire up the Blue Typhoon…" Sonic mused.
"I have a better idea!" A voice caught their attention as they saw a Luma flying over to them. "One of us can transform into a Launch Star and launch you back into space!"
"You guys again!" Marisa said.
"Were you here the whole time?" Mario asked.
"Mama felt that something bad was going on here in the Kingdom, so she sent a few of us to come check, and lo and behold, Bowser's at it again!"
"And now the whole universe is in trouble again… not for long!" Another Luma said and then transformed into a Launch Star. "Hop in!"
"…Oh, now they can talk as a Launch Star." Reimu said. "That makes sense, I guess."
"Well, what are we waiting for? Let's go!" Marisa said.
"Right behind you!" Mario grinned as the bros, Marisa, Reimu, Peach and Sonic launched off.
"Waaaaait!" Suika ran after and got in the Launch Star. "Wait for meeeee!"
"I'm going too! This is a front page scoop!" Aya exclaimed and launched after them.
"Mmmph! Wait up!" Youmu said, rolling the Yuyuko ball. "…This would've been a lot easier if you didn't eat everything!"
"But it was so gooooood." Yuyuko smiled.
Palutena rubbed her chin in thought. "I think I should bring in the cavalry." She said and then disappeared in a heavenly light, while Yukari watched all of this.
"Hmm, perhaps I should send in a few of the Youkai that went before." She mused. "Hmm, perhaps they will do."
In space…
"I don't recognize this area!" Marisa said as they were reaching toward a new Galaxy.
"You don't?" Reimu asked.
"Yeah… because that's not Good Egg Galaxy!" Marisa said as they landed on the ground.
BGM: Sky Station Galaxy 1 (Super Mario Galaxy 2)
"Where are we?" Luigi wondered.
"Beats me." Sonic replied.
"Welcome to Sky Station Galaxy!" A Luma greeted.
"That answers that question." Reimu chuckled, then noticing Suika and Aya landing.
"Whoa! This is so cool!" Suika said.
"Oooh, Hatate doesn't know what she's missing!" Aya exclaimed.
"Is that all you can think of?" Reimu asked.
"Uh… eheheh, sorry." Aya sheepishly rubbed her cheek. "I got a little too excited." She admitted. "So where are we?"
"Sky Station Galaxy, apparently." Marisa said.
"Oh! I almost forgot. That big strong monster along with a fellow with a really bushy mustache stole all the Power Stars in the galaxies!" The Luma said.
"They've been busy." Reimu said.
"Come on! The Power Stars aren't going to save themselves!" Peach grinned and walked off.
"Whoa, hang on!" Mario exclaimed and then took after her.
"Well now, let's get this party started!" Marisa said as they ran off, knocking out a few Mini Goombas and going into the Warp Pipe to go through the other half of the planet, and then they saw a huge crystal in the middle of the planet.
"I got it!" Mario said and then attempted a spin attack, but hurt his hand. "YOWCH! …Oh right, I forgot…"
"That's right… we don't have the Lumas anymore." Luigi said.
"I'll take it down!" Suika said and then with a mighty punch, she broke it. "Ta dah!"
"…Whoa." Sonic whispered as they hopped down and they were now on the top of the building on the other side of the planet.
"Hey! Over here!" The Luma exclaimed. "My friends told me you would be coming. I'll just transform and get you to the next planet!" He said and transformed, with all of them flying off to the Green Hill planet.
"Follow me!" Another Luma said. "Be careful of the Octoombas!"
"Those things? Please." Sonic charged up a spin dash and slammed into them before jumping up on a higher platform.
"…Man, he's fast!" Marisa said and then Mario explained who Sonic was. "Really? Fastest thing alive? I believe it."
"Oh, so I wasn't seeing things in my drunken stupor. Okay!" Suika giggled as they walked ahead with Sonic clearing the way and was on the tower.
"What took you guys so long?" Sonic teased as they finally got up.
"We're not as fast as you." Luigi told him.
"Yeah, I know." Sonic chuckled as they launched off in a Launch Star to some miniature planets and then launched off to a cylindrical planet after finding nothing interesting on the other planets as Sonic ran off, knocking out the Paragoombas, the Gensokyoans flew off, Peach floated to the Launch Star while the plumbers did some platforming, grabbing a Comet Medal in the process.
"What's this?" Mario wondered.
"Looks like a fancy coin or something." Sonic shrugged as they went into a Launch Star after a Luma caught up to them and flew off to a Sided Planet where they got rid of a few Octoombas and freed a Launch Star thanks to Suika punching it and then launched off, all of them landing on an egg.

"Uh, is this Dino Piranha?" Marisa wondered, but instead, Peewee Piranha popped out instead, roaring angrily.
BGM: Rowdy Rumble (Kingdom Hearts II)
"Nope, it's a baby!" Luigi exclaimed.
"This feels wrong." Reimu said as they dodged its attacks.
"Well, we gotta knock it out regardless!" Marisa said. "…Hope Viridi doesn't try to kill us." She said and then dodged Peewee Piranha running into them as Sonic had an idea and ran around the planet and then spin dashed into his egg, exposing his butt.
"Oh I see, we need to give it a good spanking!" Sonic said as Aya quickly flew over and kicked Peewee Piranha's egg, shattering it and Peewee Piranha ran away, screaming in terror as Peach got ready and smacked it with her frying pan to send it flying… and then Peewee Piranha got back up, his egg shell regenerating and screamed loudly, jumping toward them.
"Watch out!" Mario exclaimed but Suika grabbed the baby.
"Hello! Up you go!" She said and flew up, and then piledrived Peewee Piranha on the ground, shattering his egg shell and dazing it, which Mario and Luigi used their Ultra Hammers, then Marisa used Milky Way and Reimu fired Yin Yang Orbs all at the same time to destroy it, releasing a Power Star.
End BGM
"I kinda feel bad for it." Peach said.
"It had to be done, unfortunately." Reimu sighed as they took the Power Star.
"Alright!" Sonic exclaimed, before the Power Star picked them all up with a gravity bubble and flew off, taking them all to its destination.
Back at the Mushroom Kingdom…
"Thanks for that." Youmu said as Yuyuko was back to normal.
"No prob." Yukari said and then turned her head to see the Scarlet Devil Mansion team, Cirno, Daiyousei, Nitori and Mokou. "Alright, you ready?"
"Ready!" Mokou said.
"We're going too!" Palutena said, as they turned to see Palutena, Pit, Dark Pit, the Phantom Thieves, Bayonetta, the three Links, Zelda, Yoshi, Daisy, Samus, the Metroid, Pikachu and Pichu.
"Alright, in you go." Yukari said as they all took off in the Launch Star.
"Eh… I dunno…! I'm not exactly sure this is a good idea." Ryuji said.
"Oh, just get in!" Ann said, pushing Ryuji in and watching him launch off.
"AAAAAAAAH!"
"That was rude." Haru said as they all took off right after while Yukari watched them leave.
"That should do it." Yukari said and disappeared into a gap, unaware of Kaguya, Reisen, Tewi and Eirin watching them fly off.
"Mokou's going, hmm? I'm going too." Kaguya said and flew off.
"Hey, wait up!" Reisen exclaimed and the three of them chased after her.
I was originally gonna have a fun reference to Dumbo and Aladdin at the movie theater, but I couldn't really think of anything, unfortunately.
Anyway, Super Mario Maker 2 Direct tomorrow! It's gonna be fun!
EDIT: I was planning on adding Daisy into the roster, and I spaced out on her. Whoops. Fixed it!
