Mario & Crash Bandicoot: Worlds Unite (1)
It was dark, stormy night. Most of N. Sanity Island was covered in darkness, with only the occasional clap of thunder bringing some light. And on this island, some villains were having a meeting, hosted by a floating mask.
"None have failed the great Uka Uka even once," The mask said, his voice booming. "But you fools have failed me… TWELVE TIMES!"
"Great Uka Uka, it's not our fault. Crash is to blame. You have to believe us. I have scars to prove it!" One of the scientists with yellow skin, caused after an experiment, and the letter N on his forehead, whined.
"As much as I despise Cortex, he does have a point. We are trying our hardest," the scientist who had blue skin and was dressed in armour explained.
"SILENCE!" Uka Uka's yelled, his voice now deafening. "I can't believe that a group of scientists can't even destroy a simple marsupial!"
"Well, why doesn't N. Tropy just go back in time?" the scientist with bolts in head said.
"I can't. My Time Twister, my only way of officially time travelling, was powered by time crystals which are all destroyed," Tropy explained.
"ENOUGH!" Uka Uka screamed. "I have figured out that a portal is linking our dimension into another. There we will team up with a king and his army. And this time…" Uka Uka's scowl turned into a devious grin. "This time… the great Uka Uka will make sure that you do it right!" Uka Uka disappeared.
"So… coffee?" N. Gin asked. The rest nodded and walked away, unaware of what was to come.
The very next morning…
Mario woke up with a jolt. Toadsworth was running around and screaming. He woke up Luigi and the two ran outside and ran over to the Toad.
"A giant portal has opened and a bunch of things are falling!" Toadsworth yelled. Mario and Luigi ran over to the portal in the sky. Suddenly, something began to fall to the ground and crashed into a tree. The Mario Bros. walked over to the thing. It was a bandicoot with big shoes, fingerless gloves and blue jeans who had passed out. He opened his eyes and scratched his head.
"What the heck?" Mario mumbled.
