After the victory over the Lumpkins clan, the Mario Brothers and Powerpuff Girls went to the warp pipe which takes them to the desert: an extremely hot desert compared to the Sahara Desert. As soon as they set foot, the sun starts shining down on them. Reminds me so much of the angry sun I encountered ages ago, Mario thought.
"What... is this place...?" Buttercup asked.
"This is a desert," the red plumber says, "a desert filled with fire bros and fire snakes."
"Ugh... god, this is worse than the time Bubbles and I tried to destroy a meteor when Blossom was constantly using her ice breath when she first discovered it."
Mario had to agree with the lime clad there. It was so hot, he could just...
"RUN!" Luigi exclaims, pointing at something.
"Wha?" The heroes all turn around to see the angry sun looming over them. It has a murderous look on its face and is about the same size as Luigi and Mario. The angry sun starts to get closer. And closer. And CLOSER. They start running for their lives and a moment later, the girls start pushing the brothers with their crazy super speed until they reach a pyramid. Can the girls really fly and run that fast? Like Sonic? Luigi questioned thoughtfully.
When they reach the inside of the pyramid, the heroes catch their breaths after running away from that angry sun.
"What... was... that...?" Bubbles asked, panting.
"That was... the angry sun," Luigi answered. "This sun will chase you everywhere in the desert you go. However, the sun doesn't appear very often so we shouldn't really worry."
"And there shouldn't be anything in this pyramid we should really be wary of," Mario add.
"Yeah that's great and all," Blossom begins, "but should we be worrying about... THOSE?" She points to a hoard of Pokeys. I look behind me and these Pokeys look like they're ready to kill us and tear us into shreds.
"RUN! AGAIN!" Luigi exclaims.
They all run for dear life once again, attacking the fire snakes and fire brothers along the way. Bubbles gets stuck in the quick sand but the four heroes get her out in time to get out of the pyramid. And then there is a question mark block when they get to the desert.
After they get out of the pyramid full of savage Pokeys, there is a question mark block awaiting to be smashed. The girls looked at it in curiosity.
"Is that a question mark block?" Bubbles asked.
"Yes it is," Luigi said. "There are a lot of mysterious things, like mushrooms, fire flowers, even ice flowers, et cetera..."
"But what's in this block?"
"I don't know, why don't one of you girls find out?"
"Yeah, you never know what could be in it. It could be a mushroom, a fire flower, maybe a mega mushroom," Mario mentions.
The girls look at each other for a moment, with the two sisters shrugging their shoulders and Buttercup mouthing, "Just smash it Bloss, what's the problem?"
The pink clad smashes it with her fist and out comes a gigantic orangeish mushroom with red spots. She picks it up and observes said mushroom.
"I'm guessing this is the mega mushroom?" Blossom asked.
"Yeah," Mario says.
"Huh, I wonder what it does," Buttercup said while Blossom eats the mushroom.
Moments later Blossom opens her eyes to see that she's larger than her sisters, the Mario Bros, and even the desert itself. She looks down to see the four of them shocked to the mega mushroom's side effects, especially Luigi with his jaw dropped to the ground.
"I'M LARGER?!" she exclaims in disbelief.
"...Oh, so that's what it does," Buttercup says nonchalantly and totally "not" surprised.
"Yep," Mario says. "This mushroom will make you larger for about... thirty seconds. So, try not to panic Blossom."
"Too late." Buttercup points to Blossom.
The pink clad starts running around in circles panicking for at least 10 seconds but accidentally knocks Luigi over into the quicksand. He starts screaming for help and she pulls him out with her gigantic hands. Thank goodness he's okay, Blossom thought.
"Man, thanks for saving me," Luigi says in relief, getting the quick sand off of his clothes. "I know this feels weird since it's your first time but you'll get used to it. Besides, you'll get to attack every enemy with that. And smash every block."
"Is that a good thing?" Blossom asked.
"Yes!" Mario, Luigi, Bubbles and Buttercup exclaim.
So during the next twenty seconds, Blossom attacks all the enemies in existence of this desert one by one and destroy some blocks while the four of them stay by her side. After a minute, she starts to shrink back to the same size as her two sisters.
"Aww, and it was just starting to get good!" Buttercup exclaims.
"Hey, it's no big deal," Blossom said, "maybe we'll run into more of these mega mushrooms."
After they finished their conversation, they run into a mysterious giant pyramid. They walk in the dark pyramid, not really knowing what weird things they will see.
A/N: And now here we have the beginning of Level 2. Pack some sunscreen and drink plenty of water because this is one hot desert the heroes will be exploring XD What awaits in the dark and mysterious pyramid? Mummies? Cursed objects? Random stuff? Who knows? Stay tuned for the next chapter and don't forget to read and review :P
