Summary/disclaimer: Time for another chapter of Disclaimer. Enjoy the 800-word chapter. I don't own Mario; Nintendo and few others do.

(Bowsette's flagship.)

There were only 2 things that Bowsette feared… Or that bothered the Queen of the Repilxians… Or that caught her interest entirely.

The first was Rosealina, the protector of the Cosmos had stalled her forces… And had been one of the 2 people to give her an even fight.

She had no idea where she had retreated to… And her generals needed to find her… She was one of the only things standing between her… And control of the galaxy which she desired.

The other was Miles… As much as it amused her to fight the Knight which she could easily kill, the prince… Who was the last royal not captured in his race during her invasion.

He was the only other being able to fight her… As much it amused her… But he was still a thorn in her side… Back and forth between them…

She would see it end though… All things had to at some point… And her patience wasn't limited… But it wasn't infinite.

When he was brought to her… They would talk… And he would bow to her… Showing the entire galaxy that no one could stand against her…

"Though… That would become boring… Maybe I could let him loose sooner or later after I capture him… And then I could haunt him down a few times… Miles is the only knight I've seen amuse me for more than a few minutes… Besides Rosalina…But she will be defeated by me… As soon as I find that blasted brat…. But first things first…"

Bowsette muttered as more of her troopers walked in, she had to talk to her soldiers, her generals were still reporting to her fleet… Which meant she'd probably have to wait longer.

"Your majesty… Why don't we just destroy the kingdom from here… And from there, just bring him aboard?"

The trooper asked as Bowsette sighed and put her head in her palm, her soldiers were great at killing and conquering, that was something she would admit entirely.

But they had a problem with understanding orders if they weren't drilled into the heads on their shoulders.

"Ugh…"

Bowsette muttered as she leveled her head to look at the troopers. The soldier wasn't scared, but confused, Bowsette could understand that.

"Because if we did that, it would scare Miles…. And doing that means he would run, leading to more chasing, which would lead to more battles… I want him alive... And the more alive he is… The greater the trophy…. Get that?"

Bowsette asked as her heels clicked on the floor, the trooper nodded, Bowsette cracked her neck, she was a queen… But she was also a warrior… She had conquered entire kingdoms on her own… When her army easy conquering other sites.

She wanted to fight Miles, the last time she had fought the Knight, she remembered her claws cutting through his crystal armor, nearly squeezing the life from him…

And then she remembered the one claw mark, so small it barely left a scratch on her, it made her blink long enough for Miles to fly away.

It made her grin, while the knight was many things, brave was one of those things.

"And to think he fled… That toothpick of a sword wasn't a fine weapon… But it hurt… And he should be proud of that…"

Bowsette muttered to herself, her troops looked at her as she rose from her throne, her troops looked at her as she walked to the window, they would be there soon... And she would have her prize.

"Start the invasion… But as soon as you find the boy… Miles… I will handle him… The trooper who hurts him will suffer my wrath… I want to show him what happens to those who harm my empire…"

Bowsette muttered as her men filed out of the room, this would be over soon… And they would be dealt with soon enough… But she had one final fight would have to dealt with… And something would have to be done first… She would have to find Miles.

But she already had an idea where the Knight would go… And after that, it was only a matter of time….

Mario wouldn't save Miles… Nor would the princess…

And neither would anyone else… This ended now.
