Postponed Chapter 2

As Bowser hung up his own phone while sitting on his throne, his youngest son Junior came running in with the Koopalings following behind. The young Bowser lookalike jumped into his father's lap.

"So Dad, are we going over to Mama Peach's place today?" Even after the Isle Delfino incident, Bowser Jr. hasn't stopped referring to her as Mama Peach. Bowser shook his head at his youngest kid.

"No, not today Junior," He said with a resigned expression. "She's got some business to deal with and the Mario Bros are out of town."

"That sounds like it's the perfect time for another raid. Why even bother asking her if we can do it when we've done it before without informing her?" Ludwig, Bowser's oldest son; a koopa with a blue spiked shell and big, poofy blue hair, spoke up.

Bowser gave him a sharp glare that caused him to take a step back, but then it turned back to resigned as he answered.

"Because I'm getting tired of it. Peach loves Mario and I can't change that. The war Peach, Mario, Luigi and I waged against the Chaos Heart and its makers showed me that we can't be together like I want to or else the entire multiverse would be destroyed. Plus, all of you should know how well trying to make a place where I could be with her worked out. Mario's just gotten too darn strong for me to defeat and that's not even taking his brother or even Peach herself into account. Honestly, the only things making my life worth much anymore is the fact that I still get invitations to Mario and Peach's sporting events and that I have you kids."

Wendy, Bowser's only daughter; a koopa with a pink skiped shell and a bow instead of hair, then frowned as she said, "Dad, you're thinking too much. You're big! You're bad! You are the King of ALL KOOPAS!"

It'd take a moment, but Bowser would suddenly grin and agree, "And I wouldn't have it any other way!"

Suddenly leaping off his throne, he'd roar, "Come, my children! We shall lay siege to Wario's castle and mess with him for awhile!"


Several hours later, Bowser's massive Airship fleet was approaching the land that Wario had set his castle on. About that time, a very tall and lanky man in a violet shirt and hat with black overalls spotted the approach and ran off to warn Wario. He'd bust into the throne room, spotting the squat man in yellow versions of his clothes on the seat at the end of the room.

"Wario, we've got incoming!" Waluigi shouted as he ran. The sitting man only grinned.

"I know. Bowser called ahead in greeting. He plans on sieging this place and asked me to 'make it fun'. I've been feeling rather bored lately, so how could I refuse someone who pays like the king he is?"

That caused his lanky counterpart to pause before grinning himself, "So, he'll pay a king's ransom to alleviate his own boredom? Then what are we waiting for? Let's get everything set up!"

With matching greedy smiles on their faces, Wario and Waluigi sped off to prepare for the fight.


Author's Note: For this story, I follow the idea that the Koopalings are Bowser's children. Now, I had originally just planned this story as a one shot, but I got some people who wanted me to continue it, so here's the next chapter. Sorry for the long wait, everyone. I've been having some muse issues.
