"Welcome back to the eighth annual Mario Kart Grand Prix!" Lakitu exclaimed. "So far, Viridi is in first, Pit's in second and Natsu is in third place!"

"Yes, and Shy Guy's in fourth, followed by Gray, Mario, Luigi, Rosalina, Zelda, Bowser, Sora, Peach, Donkey Kong, Toad, Reimu, Marisa, Daisy, Roxas, Samus, Sonic and finally...Yoshi." Palutena said.

"Good LORD, that was one hell of a start of the Grand Prix!" Lakitu said. "I mean, it was INTENSE!"

"No kidding, and I predict it's going to get more epic from here!" Palutena smiled.

"Indeed! And here we are in the Water Park! Sonic is going to have the advantage, considering his car can turn into a boat while everyone else is going to drive underwater." Lakitu said.

"Wait, driving underwater? I have a feeling a certain witch is going to have a horrible time considering her luck with water." Plautena said.

"Oh, I remember those moments. Does anyone have a video of her battling Kingfin?" He asked, as the screen above the Water Park showed Marisa's battle with Kingfin. "Ah...she was struggling...and look, there she is trying to get their air bubble but Kingfin threw a missile at it!"

It then showed Nitori battling Kingfin and then destroying him, then saving Marisa. "HAHAHAHA! I'll never get tired of that." Lakitu smiled.

At the starting line, Marisa had a tick mark on her forehead while Bowser was just laughing at her. "HAHAHAHA! OH THAT'S PRICELESS!"

"Reimu, remind me to kill Lakitu when this Grand Prix is over." Marisa said.

"Got it." Reimu nodded.

"I'd show more of her mishaps under water, but I have this feeling I'm going to get a Master Spark to the face." Lakitu said. "Anyways, let's start the race!"

Everyone revved up their engines, gripping their steering wheels. "GO!" A Lakitu ordered.

"And their off!" Lakitu exclaimed.

Rosalina ran through an item box and held out a Blue Shell. "So soon?" She wondered before shrugging and then throwing it at Viridi, but the blue shell hit Gray, Sonic and Sora first.

"Hey!" Sora exclaimed.

Viridi had a Super Horn out and looked at the Blue Shell. "I don't think so." She smirked and used it, not only destroying the blue shell, but knocking Pit and Natsu away.

"Why I oughta..." Natsu said as they both chased after her.

"Oh no..." Marisa said, looking at the water in horror.

Reimu was driving next to Marisa. "You can hold your breath for that long, can't you?"

"I hope so..." Marisa muttered as they all landed in the water.

Bowser looked up in the water to see Sonic speeding by, his car transformed into the boat form. "Later!" Sonic waved to them as he made his way to first place.

"I DON'T THINK SO, HEDGEHOG!" Gray yelled, throwing a red shell after he got out of the water.

Sonic noticed this and as soon as he hit an item box, the red shell hit him. "Ow!" He exclaimed and a banana peel appeared in his hand. "Oh, I'll get you for this." He said.

Marisa looked at the other watery part of the course, as her eye twitched. "Ugh, again?" She sighed.

Zelda sweatdropped at this. "I hope these metal horses won't rust." She said as they all went underwater again...and Sonic speeding past them.

"Here's a little present for you." Sonic said, dropping the banana peel in the water...and it landed right in front of Marisa.

Marisa's eyes widened as she slipped on it and lost control, slamming into a wall.

"Oh! That's gotta hurt!" Palutena exclaimed.

"She doesn't have much time left...she's running out of air and I'm pretty sure slamming into the wall used up a lot." Lakitu said.

Marisa was in last place as she struggled to get out of there, eventually, she got out of there and was way behind. "Damnit..." She said and drove off, picking up a Bullet Bill and taking off.

"Everyone is in their second lap, with Marisa struggling to catch up. She was at the wrong place at the wrong time." Lakitu said.

"Sonic can be very sneaky sometimes." Palutena said.

"Yep." Lakitu nodded.

Sonic was currently in the lead while Gray was in second place and Sora was in third. Pit ran through an item box and was holding a lightning bolt. "Sweet." He said and used it, as the trio...and Roxas and Reimu in front of him got hit with lightning.

"WHAT THE HECK?!" Roxas yelled as Pit and the other racers sped right past them, and then he grew back to normal and seeing Marisa behind him. "Oh...she's struggling..."

Reimu raised an eyebrow and noticed. "Oh dear...I think it was that banana peel." She said.

Marisa came out of the water again. "I hate this." She muttered.

Zelda held a blue shell, as she aimed it at Sonic. "Let's see how Blue Boy thinks of this." She said and threw it before she she made contact in the water.

Sonic looked behind, as the Blue Shell went right towards him. "Just my luck..." he muttered. BOOM! Everyone sped past him.

Marisa went underwater again and then picked up an item box, as it was a lightning bolt, she smirked and used it.

"OOOOOW!" Sonic yelled, as he looked down and saw Marisa speeding past everyone. "Well played..." He said as he grew back up and chased after her.

"Everyone is in their Final Lap! It's getting exciting but why the hell is Zelda slowing down?" Palutena asked.

"What the heck..." Zelda wondered as the metal horses stopped, and her chariot came to a halt. "Huh?" She wondered as everyone sped past her. She got out of the chariot and looked at it. There was rust everywhere, as she sweatdropped. "Oh boy..."

"Oh, looks like Zelda is in a situation, tough luck considering she was doing so well." Lakitu said. "She might need some oil for this."

A Fly Guy came flying down and gave Zelda oil. "Thanks." She said and began pouring it on all the rusty spots.

Marisa was currently in the lead, but Sonic was catching up to her, thanks to his car changing into a boat, as Marisa noticed this when she got out of the water. "I don't think so, hedgehog." She said.

"I'd love to see you try first place, Marisa." Sonic told her as they got in the water again.

Suddenly, Sora was catching up to them with a Golden Mushroom. "What?!" Sonic exclaimed in shock.

Sora looked up at Sonic, waving at him and speeding past both him and Marisa, and then he launched out of the water, and glided his way towards the finish line, the glider happened to be an Oathkeeper glider.

"This is looking close, folks! Sora, Marisa and Sonic are fighting for first place and I am pleasantly shocked to see Marisa making a huge comeback!" Lakitu exclaimed.

"Will it be Sora? Marisa? Or Sonic? This is INTENSE folks!" Palutena exclaimed.

Sora went over the finish line first, then Sonic and then Marisa. "SORA WON THIS RACE!" Palutena yelled excitedly.

"In fourth place, we have Reimu, then in fifth we got Roxas, Viridi in sixth, Pit in seventh, Natsu is eighth, Donkey Kong in ninth, Mario in tenth, Bowser in eleventh, Luigi in twelfth, Yoshi in thirteenth, Shy Guy in fourteenth, Gray in fifteenth, Peach in sixteenth, Rosalina in seventeeth, Daisy in eighteenth, Toad in nineteenth, Samus in twentieth and Zelda in last place." Lakitu said.

"This has been quite the race, never thought Marisa would make one hell of a comeback." Palutena said.

"Indeed, I'm still shocked by that." Lakitu nodded. "Anyways, we'll see you next time in Sweet Sweet Canyon!"
