(Mario and Luigi Superstar Saga + Bowser's Minions ost - Bowser's Castle)

"Alright, let's-a go." Mario said as they ran inside the castle, and were immediately greeted by a several monsters all surrounding them, complete with the possessed Koopa Troop.

"Oh my..." Hanneman gulped

"We're surrounded," Laura stated as she and everyone got out their weapons

"Our foes is certainly expecting us." Hubert said.

"We'll have to fight our way through." Edelgard said.

"That's how we typically do things, no?" Claude smirked.

"You're definitely right on that." Dimitri nodded.

"Ugh, I'm gonna get sweaty from this." Hilda groaned.

"Hilda, stop complaining." Lysithea said.

"But are we able to get through?" Marianne asked.

"Just like how we always do. We'll give it everything we got!" Caspar smirked. "This is just like the Battle Between the Eagle and Lion!"

"Sure... except this is no mock battle." Linhardt sighed.

"Ahaha ha ha ha! And you shouldn't!" A voice said as Fawful flew over to them. "Time for the sleepiness~!" He said, firing at the large group with a sleeping gas.

"U-ugh…" Mario groaned as one by one, they all fell to the ground.

"Huh! That was easy." Fawful said. "Send these fink-rats to the slammer!"

A few moments later...

"Ugh… what happened…?" Luigi wondered as they started to come around.

"I'm surprised to see you here." A voice asked as Luigi turned to see Roy leaning on a wall.

(Legend of Zelda Ocarina of Time ost - Fire Temple)

"Roy?!" Luigi said.

"What are we, chopped liver?" Larry asked as they all looked to see the rest of the Koopalings and the Goomba Squad all in there.

"The Koopalings? And Bowser's minions?" Byleth look surprised and confused. "Why are you all in the cell with us?"

"The same reason you're all here. Stopping Cackletta and Fawful." Ludwig answered while leaning on the way and crossing his arm.

"Ugh... Fantastic, this brings back memories of Bareahard!" Machias complained.

"Why is a Goomba, A Shy Guy, A Koopa and... um..." Hilda looking at Captain Boo.

"A Boo."

"Wait, you're a Boo? What the heck is a Boo? Also why such a... well... a name to surprise someone?"

"Boo are ghost species." Emma explain.

"Gah! They're ghost?! That explains why they're floating! Don't come near me, please!" Ashe begged as he covered himself.

"That makes two of us!" Lysithea exclaimed

"What's with them? Are they scared of ghosts?" Captain Boo asked.

"Yep. Although it's not just them who's afraid of ghosts." Claude answered

"Ah. Relax you guys. I'm not gonna scare you. I may be a Boo and it's within our nature, but I'm a good Boo. I'm not going to scare you even if we Boo find it funny to see you scared."

"You're... not gonna scare us?" Ashe asked as he look at him.

"Nope. Like I said. I'm a friendly ghost. But don't compare me to the others."

"Well... if you say so..."

"Okay, back to the topic. Why do the four of you have flags on your heads?" Hilda asked

"Because the flags over our heads shows everyone we are captains." Shy Guys answered.

"Ah... I see..."

"Well considering Bowser has a military, it make sense." Jusis cross his arm. "Not to mention you all look the same."

"Do we really look the same?" Captain Goomba asked.

"Compare to us humans, yes." Sylvain nodded.

"In any event. If you guys were also against Bowletta and Fawful, how come we never heard of what transpired with you?" Lysithea asked.

"Well, a lot has happened ever since the Kooper Cruiser exploded." Ludwig said. "Fawful use some gas and brainwashed the troops Lord Bowser brought. Including the Koopalings. I didn't because I was holding my breath. I went undercover to figure out a plan to defeat them. But unfortunately, I been fought out and been place in here."

"So the fiend even brainwashed Bowser's troops... dastards..." Dimitri muttered.

"Oh wait! I got an idea! Roy, Morton why don't you combine your strength to break the bars apart?" Caspar suggested.

"You don't think we tried that? Those danged bars are stronger than they look." Roy said.

"And if we can't I'm sure you can't either." Morton added

"Aww seriously!? Damn, I thought I came up with a good plan..." Caspar muttered

"Oh! Oh! I got it!" Iggy exclaimed. "We can use my Mechakoopas to destroy the bars!"

"You have Blasta Mechakoopas and you have Zappa Mechakoopas, they don't sound like they can break open the bars." Ludwig said.

"Oh, what do you know! They can destroy ice blocks and Brick Blocks!"

"Only if you give them a Super Mushroom, which I doubt machinery can even use." Wendy said. "Come on, people, think! There has to be a way out of here."

"Oh!" Ashe gasped.

"What is it Ashe?" Avery asked.

"I want to see if I can by lockpicking." Ashe said as he approach the cell door and begin to tinkle with it.

(BGM ended)

"Lockpick? We already tried that! The lock is so-" Wendys said and somehow Ashe lock pickings skills open the cell with Avery, Sylvain and Lemmy. "-Complicated... WHAT?!"

"It opened!"

"You did it, Ashe!" Avery hug Ashe from behind

"Ashe, your lock picking skills is amazing as always." Byleth complicated.

"Your skills once again saved the day, Ashe." Dimitri praised.

"Aww shucks..." Ashe light blushed as he rub his hair. "Hang on, Let me get you guys out of there."

"Bwahahaha! Teach me your lock licking skills!" Iggy requested as Ashe begin to lockpick the next door and the next until he unlock everyone.

"You sir, have a gift of lockpicking." Ludwig said. "Now then…" He pulled out his wand. "Let us destroy Fawful!"

"Yeah!" Levi nodded.

"So you guys got a plan?" Captain Boo asked.

"Oh, we typically storm our way when we got here." Rean said.

"That's what we typically do too." Captain Goomba said. "Kind of a Goomba Squad thing."

"Alright, so we know what to do… question is… should we?" Larry asked.

"I say we go for it! Bahahaha!" Iggy laughed.

"It's worth a shot. The sooner we get to Fawful and Bowletta, the better." Sara said and aimed her sword and gun.

(Fire Emblem Warriors Three Hopes ost - Between Heaven and Earth)

"Yeah." Rean nodded and then he and everyone pulled out their weapons. "All right everyone. Up ahead are Bowletta and Fawful, our two greatest foes yet. With them are some of Bowser's brainwashed troops and monsters. But take heart everyone. They may have numbers at their side, but we have the strength and the will to carry on. And together, we can overcome anything. We will overcome our foes and we will reach Bowletta and Fawful together! Everyone, advance!" Rean pointed his tachi at the door.

"YEAH!" Everyone respond and as they ran back to the main lobby where they had seen some monsters approaching them.

"Take this!" Manuela yelled, as she cast White Magic sphere and Hanneman cast Thoron and launched them at the Monsters. Join with Hubert's Mire, Avery's Blizzard, Dorothea's Thoron spell, Lysithea's Dark Spike and Annette's Cutting Gale, they launched a huge explosion by the monsters and many of them disappeared as they press onward. Mona launch out a sl\plash of her magic while Fischl and Oz use their lighting arrows and magic. While Aether leap into the air and then cast a tornado on the monsters. A Minos Demon approached the group but then Levi's Piercing Toss and then forward was Caspar as he leap in the air strike the monsters and defeat it with one blow. Five Surtr approach as they let out a fiery breath. But then Marianne, along with her Vanillite who use avalanche, use Blizzard and douce the flames while Edelgard, Dimitri, Dedue, Byleth, Sara and Gaius launch forwards and then struck the Surtr with rapid slashes and trust, with Sara with her purple lighting strikes, causing them to vanish.

Meanwhile, the others who were taking care of some other monsters as the Sky Guys throw turnips and mages with their magic. Archers with their bows and strike the enemies until no more are around. Soon Ramon, Obsidian Garmr, Rup Kamuy, Thunder Hydra, Steel Golem and several Lunar Bee with Brainwashed Parakoopas, Paragoombas charge towards the group. Ashe, Bernedetta, Claude, Ignatz, Alisa, Machias, Crow, Wendy, Iggy, and Lugwig launch their attacks with arrows, guns, and magic.

"I gotta say Rean, you certainly know how to motivate everyone here." Claude chuckled as he shot an arrow at the Lunar Bee.

"Are you the House Leader of Class VII? You certainly do look the part." Dimitri asked as he launch swift trust attack at the Steel Golem.

"House Leader? No, I don't think I'm the leader, just another student, that's all." Rean said as he use his Craft: Arc Slash on the Thunder Snake and Obsidian Garmr.

"No need to be modest. You certainly have the qualities of a leader." Edelagard said as she backflip and then powerful swing attack on the Rup Lamuy.

"You certainly got that right." Sara chuckled.

While Mercedes cast her white magic orbs towards the Lunar Bees. Linhardt casted his Cutting edge towards the Ramon and Raphael launch his fist towards the Rup Kamuy, with Leonie who land some trust attacks. Hilda toss her Hand Axe towards the Steel Golem when Ferdinand and Petra charge at it with swift slashes and trust. The Steel Golem launch his's fist towards them but they dodge and counterattack. Roy and Morton charge at the Steel Golem with their fists. Then the Thunder snakes launch their bite attack towards Annette but then Elliot protected her with his music magic called Melody Shield. Annette counter the Thunder Snakes with Cutting Gale and then Laura and Felix swift slash through them monsters.

"I must say, I'm surprised Fawful must have control the monsters with that gas of his." Levi said as he stuck down a Lunar Bee.

"Yeah. Imagine what he will do to was able to bend the monsters to his will." Rean nodded as he strike down a Thunder Snake.

"It will cause quite the scandle." Lysithea answered as she dodge the Steel Golem's attack and counter it with Luna and destroy it.

"Let's go!" Ludwig said after he and Alisa took care of the Lunar Bees as they took off before they came across a split path, one that lead downstairs and another leading up.

"A fork in the road!" Alisa groaned.

"The Goomba Squad will go downstairs and see what we find, the rest of you go up!" Captain Goomba said.

"All right, but be careful!" Rean nodded as they split up, going in different directions.

(BGM ended)


Upstairs...

The group soon walk on the steel bridge and then lead to a large open area where Fawful is standing in the middle under a platform. And he's wearing a new costume. He wearing a pink outfit with a wing-like cloth under his arms and a large V-neck, with a large antenna replacing his hair.

(Mario and Luigi Bowser's Inside Story ost - Fawful is there)

"Fawful admit. Fawful surprised. You fink-rats made it all the way here. It makes me furious! But the bright side for Fawful is that it's this time he will destroy you all!" Fawful said with a grinned.

"You, a scrawny little guy think he can take all of us? Your chances are zero you know. Espcually with those muscles." Rapahel said.

"Muscles?" Fawful title his head. "What does muscles do with this? No matter. Perhaps the biggest boon here is that Princess Peach is here. You all make things easier for Fawful."

"I don't think so." Peach smirked.

"Give it up, little guy." Crow said. "There's like a lot of us and only you!"

"Yes, I know that. A ridiculously sized group and only one me. Just thinking about being ganged up on makes me red with fury! What should I do with all of you? Why, I know!" Fawful smirked, pressing a button as lasers rained down on top of them, leaving only the Mario Bros, Class VII, Edelgard, Dimitri, Byleth and Claude preventing the others from escaping with a plasma barrier.

"Confounded barrier!" Hubert growled. "It seems we have no choice but to watch..."

Ferdinand turned his head. "Not for long we won't!" He said as they turned to see some Mechawfuls on standby along with some Og-Jior, Judge Pillar, Steel Golem, and Surtr.

"Uh oh... We might be in for a pickle here!" Annette exclaimed.

"Hmph. These monsters and machines does help us grow stronger regardless." Felix smirked as he draw out his Tachi.

"Well, I'll leave the fighting to you guys-" "Ooh, no. You're helping, either you like it or not." Lysithea said.

"Aww..." Hilda sighed.

"Very well..." Hubert said as everyone take out their weapons. "Let us turn these monsters to pile of ashes and the machines into scraps."

"Agreed Hubert. March onward!" Ferdinand agreed as they charged at the monsters.

"I HAVE CHORTLES! They will not last long." Fawful said.

"You clearly underestimate us shrimp." Sara smirked.

(BGM ended)

(Mario and Luigi: Superstar Saga + Bowser's Minions ost Fawful and Cackletta)

"Fawful isn't shrimp! Fawful is Fawful! And Fawful will deep-dry you fink-rats!" Fawful smirked.

Cackletta's Pupil - Fawful

Fawful enter his hatch and then the "eyes" shoot out laser beams towards everyone and they begin to split up and charge at Fawful's catch. But then Fawful's hatch begin to move and spin around like a pinball and ram Elliot and Dimitri who block with his Silver Lance blocked. Edelgard block the attack as well. But then it stop and Fawful fire another laser attack towards Levi who dodge as he backflip and warp towards Fawfu's hatch and strike it.

"Rat-flink! Have as many hitting of me as you wish-" Fawful then fire a laser at Levi and push him back. "The resulting will be the same!"

"Tch... Annoying little-" Levi glared before Fawful shoot out more lasers and then spin around as everyone dodge and then trike at the hatch. Fawful's hatch then slide back and then shoot out energy balls at several areas and then exploded to those who are near it and catch them off guard, then ram them. Sara along with Luigi got caught into that trap.

Fawful open the hatch and then shoot out several bolts from his antenna and then close the catch in time before Alisa can fire at him. Much to Alisa frustration. The sparks landed an attack as Claude, Emma, Mario, Crow, Millum and Gaius dodge the sparks. Then Fawful's hatch begin to spin rapidly and then charge at them. Millium summoned Airgetlam and formed a shield, the next ram into Emma, Claude, Gaius and Edelgard. While Dimitri throw his Silver Lance at Fawful but it missed and the Silver Lance reappeared in his hand. Then Fawful's hatch stop, turn to Dimitri and then fire a laser at him and crash him to the wall.

"Dimitri!" Claude exclaimed.

"I HAVE CHORTLES! Fink-rats will never defeat me!" Fawful mocked the group as they keep attacking the hatch but their attacks is useless at this pointed. Even the orbal Arts aren't doing a thing.

"Ugh! What is that thing even made off?!" Alisa shout out her frustration as she fires an arrow at it but it just bounces off as Fawful just attempted to ram her.

"Our attacks aren't even putting a scratch on it." Laura muttered as she zoom and launch some powerful slashe but it still didn't do a thing. And she get it's with a laser. "Dwah!"

"At this rate, we won't be able to defeat him if he's stays in that hatch. We have to draw him out somehow." Edelgard muttered.

Mario then think for a moment then got an idea. "Oh! I got an idea. Luigi! Help me out!"

"Okay!" Luigi nodded and approached him. Mario then whisper into his ear and then Luigi nodded. "Oh yeah! That might work!"

"What might work?" Sara asked as she dodge a laser beam and shoot back.

"If i'm right, this will be out chance." Mario said as he begin to conjure a fireball. Then toss it into the air and then Luigi jump up and then slam it and the large begin a rain of fireball and strike at Fawful's hatch.

"Gah! Annoying persistence!" Fawful said in the inside.

"Emma or any one of you who can use fire Arts or magic. Attack it!" Mario said.

"Got it!" Rean nodded as he zoom at Fawfuls' hatch and then Flame Impact Fawful's hatch, then join by Emma's Fire Craft along with Alisa fire magic and Elliot's music magic and making music noises.

"You all have annoying persistence! And now you eat this!" Fawful's said as his hatch begin to spin around, shooting more laser bolts. Then everyone dodge it and then they continue using any fire-related attacks.

"Ponyta, let's go!" Gaius said as his Ponyta came out.

"You as well Ponyta!" Jusis summoned his Ponyta.

"Use Flamethrower!" Both command and both ponyta open their mouth and use Flamethrower at Fawful's catch.

Inside's Fawful's catch is getting heated. In other words, too much hot.

"Ouch! HOTNESS!" Fawful shout as he came out of his finally came out of his hatch.

"He's out! Now!" Levi shout and then everyone charge at him.

Fie then took Fawful by surprise and then launch swift slashes and then a kick in the face while Laura launch swift powerful swing of her sword. Fawful roll over and then got back up. Pulled out a laser gut and then shoot at them but they dodge. Levi charges and launch swift slashes at Fawful but he dodge them but then Rean use his new craft and launches several phantom slashes at Fawful and Levi follow up with a swirl slash of his Glaive.

"Fink-rats!" Fawful shout as he shoot out energy bolts form his antenna and rain it on the battlefield. Dimitri toss his Silver Lance at him. But at his dodge. Lighting strikes at him. "Owowow!"

The Mario bros perform the Super Chopper Bros on Fawful as Luigi toss Mario into the air and then Mario rapidly bash Fawful's face and then an upper bash on Fawful's chin. Luigi follow up and hammer bash Fawful towards Jusis who then warp towards Fawful and strike at several areas with trust attacks and then his sword imblue with Ice magic and then wide slash, frozen Fawful then shatter it and caused Fawful to scream in agony as he rolled over.

"I HAVE FURY! Fawful shall not lose to you!" Fawful roared and then he rapidly spin around to strike at someone. Then he chose Edelgard. But Byleth reappeared in front of Edelgard and then reserve group Fawful, to catch him off guard. Then Edelgard launch a swift axe strike at Fawful and a powerful swing. Then Claude launches a powerful arrow shot at Fawful. And now Machias and Crow combined their gun magic and then shoot powerful multiple bullets and exploded on Fawful. "Gah!"

"It's over now Fawful!" Byleth said as his unleash a rapided Sword of the Creator swing whip attack at him and then one final spin slash and Fawful scream in agony and roll ont he floor. Fawful slowly got up.

"Urgh…" Fawful groaned. "I can still win this!"

"I think not." Jusis said.

"Ponyta use Flamewheel!" Both Jusis and Gaius command and then both Ponyta charge at Fawful and use Flame Wheel.

"Fawful think so!" Fawful pulled a laser and shoot electricity at the Ponytas but they dodge and once too close to Fawful. "Oh cra-" Then explode on him. "AIYEEEEEEE!" Fawful screamed rolling over to the ground to knock him down in defeat.

(BGM ended)

"Yeah, that's what I'm talking about!" Crow grinned.

"Well done Ponyta." Jusis said as his and Gaius's ponyta returned to their partner as they petted and neigh.

"Ugh…" Fawful groaned as he got back up. "I HAVE FURY! I will win this for Bowletta! You will have the destruction of your doom! I-"

CRASH!

"Huh?" Fawful turned around… only to get backhanded by a Peasley as he was launched to a wall and made a Fawful-shaped hole in the wall. "AAAAAAH! I WILL BE BAAAAAAAAAACK!" He screamed before his screams faded away.

"Ahahaha!" Peasley came flying over to them. "Looks like the final battle is just up ahead. There's somewhere I need to be. So, farewell." He said as he took off. And right on time as the plasma barrier disappeared. Many monsters and Fawful's robots were destroyed by their allies.

"Well, that was a fine exercise for the final battle." Hubert dark chuckled as he and the team approached.

"We all have Bowletta left. You guys ready?" Byleth asked as they all nodded.

"Let's go." Rean said as they all walked off to Bowletta's throne room.


And the final battle awaits us! Also, why do I get the feeling I keep saying the final battle thing over again? Well, stay tuned for the final battle! Okay, WHY DO I KEEP SAYING THAT?!
