Dimentio's Hideout

Dimentio had to admit, he rather liked the power - the fear he was creating in other souls. Shadow Mario and Shadow John were feared by everyone and he hadn't even killed Peach or Toadsworth yet. He was planning to but Luigi, Pete, and Doc arrived to free his prisoners.

Dimentio stated, "They only delayed the inevitable. I can always recapture my prisoners and then kill them. Especially if those three are in the time stream."

Just then, video phone rang. Dimentio answered it and on the screen was Fawful.

"Ah Fawful, calling to congratulate me on taking over Mushroom Kingdom," Dimentio commented, smirking evilly.

Fawful didn't like that Dimentio beat him of taking over the kingdom, especially since he had put so much effort into his plan.

"How dare you steal my chortles," Fawful hissed.

"Well, you were asking for it," Dimentio stated.

"I will find the Dark Star and destroy you," Fawful threatened.

Dimentio replied, smirking evilly, "You don't have the Dark Star, yet I have Shadow Mario and Shadow John. You can't really threaten me."

It was Fawful's turn to smirk evilly and Dimentio turned white as a ghost.

Fawful showed the Dark Star to Dimentio and commented, "When the De Lorean was being attacked by your minions, I took advantage of the confusion and took it. Now your chortles and the kingdom will be mine!"

With that, Fawful hung up. Dimentio was scared to be sure. Now that Fawful had the Dark Star, he could take over the kingdom and the shadow brothers. As for him, he probably would be killed for all he did.

"But that doesn't mean that I'm not going to give up a fight," Dimentio stated, to no one.

Just then, three sonic booms caught his attention and saw the De Lorean appearing in front of him. Luigi, Pete, and Doc got out.

Dimentio commented, "Well, if it isn't the brothers of the prophecy."

Doc stated, "Yes and we have come to defeat you."

"Defeat me, the ruler of Mushroom Kingdom," Dimentio replied, "You will not, Doctor Brown. For I, Dimentio, will not allow it."

Luigi and Pete stood strong at the threat.

Luigi responded, "You don't deserve to be the ruler of Mushroom Kingdom."

Pete added, "And we shall free the world from your evil."

Dimentio got mad and made a fist.

He commanded, "Shadow Mario, Shadow John. Get them!"

Shadow Mario and Shadow John advanced, ready for battle.

Luigi turned to Doc and stated, "We'll deal with our brothers. You get the stone of light."

"Right," Doc replied.

With that, Shadow Mario and Luigi battled in hand-to-hand combat. Shadow John and Pete did the same, proving that they were even in power levels. Luigi quickly cartwheeled back when Shadow Mario was about to overpower him. Luigi was choking back tears. He didn't want this to happen.

He knew that him and Mario would eventually have a fight but not one like this. 'This is must be what Mario felt when I was Mr. L,' Luigi thought.

Mr. L heard this thought and stated, "M was able to stop me. You can do the same, junior."

Luigi smiled, he always knew that Mr. L was slightly good. Luigi gathered his green electricity and fired it at Shadow Mario. Shadow Mario hadn't had a chance as the green electricity wiped him out. Luigi stood in surprise. Mario was fainted in front of him, stunned.

Pete saw this and whispered, "That is awesome."

Shadow John tried to attack Pete when he was distracted but Pete cartwheeled away from him. Pete knew that he had to do something. Like Luigi, this wasn't the battle that he thought he would have with his brother. 'This is must be what John felt like I was Mr. P,' Pete thought.

Mr. P heard this thought and stated, "J was able to stop me like M was with Mr. L."

"We are the same," Pete asked.

Mr. P answered, "We are the same, you can do this."

"Sure can, junior," Mr. L added, hearing Mr. P.

Pete was surprised on how well linked he and Luigi were. So, he gathered all of his electricity and fired a Shock Wave at Shadow John. Shadow John hadn't had a chance either as the Shock Wave wiped him out. Pete stood in surprise. John was fainted in front of him, stunned.

Dimentio started to yell, "You failures..."

Doc took the stone of light and said, "I'll take this."

"Hey," Dimentio yelled.

Luigi grabbed Mario as Pete grabbed John.

Doc ran towards them and yelled, "Into the De Lorean!"

"Right," Luigi and Pete replied, dragging their brothers into the car.

Doc got in as they took off before Dimentio could react.

Dimentio swore, "God damn it, they defeated me!"

Mimbus, who saw the whole thing, smirked evilly. He had been sent here to kill Dimentio by Fawful's orders.

"They defeated the shadow brothers but I believe that you are due for death," Mimbus stated.

Dimentio didn't even bother to turn around, he knew it was over for him. Mimbus charged at him, tossing him around, punching him. Dimentio didn't even put up a fight as he started to bleed heavily. Mimbus gave the final crushing blow as Dimentio bled out, dying on the cold marble floor. Mimbus left, not even bothering with anything else. His job was done.


Time stream

"Malleo?"

"..."

"Mario?"

"..."

"Please, Mario, wake up!"

"..."

"God damn it, Malleo, don't leave me!"

Mario eyes open slowly as he saw Luigi hovering over him. The green clad hero looked worried beyond belief and the red clad hero remembered everything. He looked around and saw that he was in a strange vehicle of sorts.

"Luigi," he asked, groaning a bit.

"I'm here, Mario," Luigi answered, reassuring his older brother.

"I remember what happened," Mario breathed. He looked at his younger brother and placed his hand on his shoulder. "You saved us," he said.

"We saved you," Pete corrected, helping John stand.

Mario was laying down as they were all in the backseat of the De Lorean.

"And I have the stone of light," Doc commented.

"I think we should hang onto that if we are going to battle Fawful next," Luigi stated.

"I happen to agree, he needs to go down now," Pete added.

John asked, remembering something else, "Fawful...?"

"Weege, he has the Dark Star," Mario commented, remembering the same thing.

"Damn it," Luigi swore.

"Now what do we do, Doc," Pete asked.

"We go forth and defeat Fawful, you two didn't use the power stars against Mario and John," Doc answered.

"Yeah but they'll only last us thirty seconds," Luigi stated.

John saw the power stars as well as the supplies. Mario saw the same thing and was surprised that they were able to get all of those things if most of the kingdom was on fire.

Mario asked, "How the hell did you get all of this?"

"Now's not the time, Mario," Doc stated.

"How'd you know my name," Mario questioned.

"This is Doctor Brown, he's been helping us out," Luigi explained.

"Yeah, we've been trying to stop those two ever since we learned that they were up to no good," Pete added.

"What I don't get why this long scheme to get the Dark Star," John asked.

Pete answered, "I'll answer that one. Fawful knew that with everyone in the castle, he couldn't get the Dark Star."

"And he decided to get everyone out of the castle by casing all sort of friction between you and your brother," Luigi added.

"And you and Mario," Pete stated.

"Enough to get the castle empty at least and get the Dark Star," Doc finished.

Mario replied, placing his hand to his chin, "And by the time any of us picked up on it, Fawful would have Peach's Wish Power and the Dark Star."

John responded, "All of this time it was in front of our faces and we couldn't see it..."

Doc picked up and knew that John was now starting to question himself. Doc looked into Mario's eyes and saw that he was questioning the same thing. Luigi and Pete sensed this as they both exchanged nods.

Doc saw this as he stated, "Well, let's get to where Fawful is hiding to help the others. Then we're going to take Fawful down."

"Hopefully we aren't too late," Luigi replied.

"Hopefully," Pete responded.

But Mario and John said nothing as Doc continued to drive.


AK1028: Well, what do you guys think? I hope this is starting to end nicely for this is the last story in the trilogy. I am still stuck on Paranormal Chaos in Luigi's Mansion: Dark Moon. I have driving lessons now and no driving test on the thirteenth of this month. So I might not be able to see TimPrime1 this summer. *sighs, depressed* That brings me down... I really hoping to at least see him for a bit, I really miss him. I can't really depend on my own family to help me with this, don't ask. So I'm stuck in Buffalo for a while... *tears* I hate this... And I got to stop ranting... Please read and review. And always think outside of the box.
