Hi guys. I'm finally able to work on this chapter. I hope you all enjoy it.

Disclaimer: I only own my FC!

Mario, Luigi, and Jasmine made it to an underwater cave after leaving the fortress. They had to dodge more enemies like Stone Spikes and Bulbers. The light from the Jellybeams helped them see in the dark, but the three did their best not to touch them. Luigi was almost hit by a Stone Spike's spiked ball, but he swam out of the way in time. Jasmine accidentally touched a Jellybeam, losing her fire powers. As they swam, Luigi found some more blocks. He hit them and one had a fire flower inside. Jasmine grabbed the flower and got her fire powers back.

After leaving the underwater cave, the three made it to another area with lava. They had to get across by using a Tilt Lift. They almost fell off a couple times, but they made it across to the next area. This time, they were inside of a volcano with rising lava. Jasmine was a little nervous about the lava, but Mario and Luigi reassured her that everything would be alright. Jasmine took a deep breath and followed them through the volcano.

The three made it out of the volcano and made it to another area with some Spine Coasters. They tried not to fall off them as the Spine Coasters went faster. Mario and Luigi breathed a sigh of relief after making it onto the ground. Jasmine was cheering as she jumped on to the ground.

"Whoo! That was amazing!" She cheered as she jumped into the air.

"L-Let's keep going..." Luigi said, shaking a little.

"Yeah. We're even closer to Bowser now." Mario added.

"Alright." Jasmine said and followed Mario and Luigi.

As the three continued walking through Bowser's Kingdom, they saw an airship up ahead.

"I guess we have to deal with Bowser Jr again." Luigi said. He and Jasmine followed Mario inside of the airship.

They made it onto the airship and immediately saw some crates and a screw. Mario jumped on top of the screw and began to spin, making the screwtop platforms move. They made it across before the platforms could block the path again. Two Mechakoopas fell from the smaller platform. Mario and Luigi jumped on them and the three made it to the other side. They began to dodge cannonballs that were nearby. Then, giant cannonballs began to shoot out as they continued through the airship.

"Mario! Look out!" Luigi yelled.

"Huh?" Mario wasn't paying attention and was hit by a giant cannonball. Mario fell to the ground and lost his fire powers. Luigi and Jasmine ran over to him and helped Mario stand up.

"Are you alright bro?" Luigi asked.

"Yeah, I think so." Mario said. As they continued, they found more crates and began to break them. A propeller mushroom flew out of one and Mario grabbed it, changing into his propeller suit.

The three dodged more cannons and Mechakoopas along the way. Luigi was hit by a cannonball, but he found an ice flower as they were making it to the end. Then, they finally made it to Bowser Jr. He laughed as he jumped inside of Bowser's Clown Car. Bowser Jr then used the Clown Car to shoot out a spiked bomb.

"What do we do?" Jasmine asked Mario.

"This!" Mario watched as the spiked ball and Jr got near him. He jumped up and did a ground pound, making the platform throw the spiked bomb into the air and hit Jr.

Jr screamed and began to spit fire balls onto the platform. The three dodged the fire balls as he continued spitting them out. Soon Bowser Jr shot out another spiked bomb. Luigi did a ground pound and hit Jr with the spiked bomb. Bowser Jr spit out some more fire balls. Mario was almost hit by a fire ball, but ran and flew into the air before it could touch him.

Bowser Jr stopped spitting fire balls and shot out a giant spiked bomb. This time it began to roll towards Jasmine. She jumped into the air and tried to do a ground pound. As Jasmine landed onto the platform, the spiked bomb hit Bowser Jr, finally defeating him.

"We did it!" The three cheered.

"Wait, does this mean we can finally go to Bowser's Castle?" Jasmine asked.

"Haha yep! We're almost finished." Mario replied.

"I think we still have enough items just in case." Luigi said.

"Well alright. Let's go!" Jasmine replied and the three made their way to Bowser's Castle.
