Mush! (Total Mario Island Episode 6)
"Hi, I'm Swanky Kong and this is Total Mario Island! Let's go to the camps, starting with: Big Bad Brawlers!"
Wendy and Roy were sat in the hot-tub, having a discussion about something. Dry Bowser nodded at Waluigi, and the pair clambered into the tub, next to them. "I've been thinking...Do you two want to form an alliance with me and Waluigi? It's just that we all seem to share the same opinions about who to eliminate," began Dry Bowser.
"Well, I probably wouldn't...It depends on how annoying everyone else in the team is," answered Wendy.
"Well I'd like to form an alliance with you! Who are we voting out next?...Err, I mean, if we lose, that is!" Roy plastered on a smile, not wanting them to think he was the one making them lose.
"We're thinking Bowser Jr.," replied Waluigi. "Look at the state he's in! He's not going to help us now his dad's gone!" Bowser Jr. was curled up in a little ball, in the doorway of his tent, sniffling and sobbing. "I'll join then!" Wendy agreed.
"You can join, but only if your loyal; don't want you backing out do we?" said Dry Bowser, sternly.
Dry Bones bumped into King Boo, behind the tents. "Oh, err... Hi!" bumbled Dry Bones. "Oh, Hi," replied King Boo. "I've been thinking," he carried on. "I've been thinking for a while now, could we be in an alliance?"
"Sure, but we'd need someone else. Not Koopa or Paratroopa. They just stick together like glue,"
"How about Lemmy?"
"Yeah! He's just by the food stash, I'll go ask him," Dry Bones pottered over to Lemmy. "Hey, Lemmy. Me and King Boo were wondering, if you'd be in an alliance with us?"
"Sure! Oh, it's breakfast, better go," Dry Bones followed Lemmy to the food tent, bringing along a bird they had found, already dead, to eat.
"Alright campers! Today you're doing...Dog sledding! You get dogs, based on how well you did in the last challenge! Big Bad Brawlers get Chihuahuas, Kong Power get Yorkshire Terriers, In-Casts get Golden Retrievers, The Frutti-Tutti Bunch get German Shepherds and Team Royale get Huskies!"
"Where are we sledding? Not on this island obviously..." began Daisy.
"I'm getting to it! You'll be teleported to Alaska, where you will race to the finish. Don't worry, you won't get lost! Each team get a map! Let's go!"
When the contestants arrived in Alaska, they all felt slightly hazy. "GO!" yelled Swanky. The teams dashed over to their sleds. "Mush!" instructed Mario. Team Royale zoomed off, at top speed. The Frutti-Tutti Bunch were doing quite well, too! In-casts were going rather slowly, but that didn't matter; they were moving, after all! Unlike Kong Power and Big Bad Brawlers. "I know!" cried Chunky Kong.
"What?" queried Candy.
"Strap me into the sled!" As soon as Chunky was strapped in, and the rest of the team were positioned on the sled, Kong Power were off! They zoomed past In-casts, leaving them well behind. The Frutti-Tutti Bunch, Team Royale and Kong Power, were battling for first place. "Where's the finish?" asked Daisy. Luigi got out the map, only for it to blow off in the wind! "Luigi!" cried Mario.
In-casts were losing speed. "We've got to speed up!" called Larry, to the rest of the crew. "I can be strapped in, like Chunky was...Except I'll be flying!" contributed Paratroopa. "Great idea!" agreed Larry. In-casts had to stop the sled, giving the Golden Retrievers a well earned rest, to strap Paratroopa in. When they set off again, though, they were going pretty fast!
"How are we going to get it working?" boomed Dry Bowser.
"Oh no! If we don't get it moving, then we'll lose! Arrgh!" yelled Roy.
"What? LOSE? Oh no! Waa!" squealed Bowser Jr.
"Now look what you've done! You've got him going!" sighed Dry Bowser.
Team Royale were winning the fight for first place. The Frutti-Tutti Bunch were lagging behind though. Chunky Kong and the Yorkshire Terriers looked like they were tiring, but they wouldn't stop. The Yorkshire Terriers legs were pulling, and pulling. Amazing strength for such tiny dogs. "Where's the finish?" asked Tiny. Candy got the map out, but kept a strong grip over it. "To the left!" she called. Chunky began to turn the sled left. "I mean the other left!" yelled Candy.
"Hey, look!" called Peach. "Kong Power are going right, and they have a map, Luigi, let's follow them!"
"Good idea Peach! Gee!" he called at the dogs, making them turn right. He then made a kissing noise, which made the dogs speed up. "On by!" he yelled. Team Royale overtook Kong Power. After a few minutes, the finish line came into sight. "Look! The finish line!" cried Daisy.
Back at the start, Wendy had an idea. "If we dangled dog-treats in front of them, maybe they'd get moving!"
"Great!" agreed Dry Bowser. "But where are we going to get the equipment from?"
"It's on the sled. Dog treats, for after the dogs have finished, and a stick and some rope...Actually, I'm not sure why we have that, but still!" After the dog-treat dangler had been made, and Big Bad Brawlers were all on the sled, they were ready to try Wendy's invention out. Dry Bowser lowered the stick, and within seconds got a response; the dogs were off! Faster than any other sled ever! Soon they could see the other teams! "We're not going to lose!" exclaimed Bowser Jr., who soon after fell from the sled, because he threw his hands in the air, and he was holding onto Roy's back, who was holding onto the sled.
Swanky was waiting at the finish. "Here come the teams! Team Royale claim first! Then it's...In-casts?! Err, I mean, In-casts! Then Kong Power, and fourth place goes to... The Frutti-Tutti Bunch! Big Bad Brawlers! Your third elimination! Second in a row! You wouldn't have survived elimination even if you crossed the line before The Frutti-Tutti Bunch...Which you didn't. Bowser Jr. fell off!" He pointed to a figure, lay on the snow. "Someone's leadership really didn't pay off in your team!" Everyone's head swung towards Dry Bowser. Except Bowser Jr., who was trying to get off his back, so had better things to do. "Team Royale, your prize is... Messages from home! Yes, you get letters, and video messages from your family and friends! Big Bad Brawlers, you will have to see me at the elimination ceremony," With that, everyone was teleported back to Camp Mario.
"So. Big Bad Brawlers. I will read out the votes, one by one. First vote goes to: Bowser Jr. The second vote goes to: Dry Bowser. The third vote goes to: Bowser Jr. The fourth vote goes to: Dry Bowser. The next two votes will be done together. And the next person eliminated from Total Mario Island is... Bowser Jr.! Goodbye!"
"Aww!" Bowser Jr. walked over to the Boat Of Losers, only for good old dad, Bowser to jump out! "Dad!" exclaimed Bowser Jr. The Boat Of losers sailed off, across the sea, many losers have crossed before.
