A short. Mainly based on that Mario Movie trailer.
Not sure if I'll be able to make a Halloween story but I'll see what I can do.
Enjoy.
It was a dark night, one that was starry but dark.
Ya know, how like I lot of my stories start.
And sitting on the roof of the Smash Mansion was the Koopa King himself, Bowser.
Sitting alone while drinking an iced tea, which he had barely touched as it was almost full and on the table he was sitting at.
He looked down, unmotivated and uninspired. Which wasn't what you'd exactly see from the Koopa King.
So what had him down?
Well, he felt that he'd become soft. That he's lost his edge and is less of a villain than he was back in the day.
He fears that he's not as evil as he could be.
He failed to take down Cocytus the first time the when Ainz attacked the mansion, and now he was gonna come back at some point.
He had to be ready, but that showdown really killed his spirits.
What would cheer him up?
"*Sigh*. What am I gonna do?" Bowser asked as he put his hands on his chin. "I'm just not the same."
That's when a door was opened, the Koopa King didn't bat an eye to see who it was.
But the person who opened it was Mr. Nintendo himself, Bowser's archenemy.
Mario, the mascot of Nintendo. Had come to check on him.
"Hey a Bowser." Said the plumber as he put his hand on Bowser's shell. "Why are you a out here by a yourself?"
"Mario." Bowser turned to the plumber, before looking out at the moon again. "I just, man. I don't feel the same."
The plumber raised an eyebrow. It wasn't like Bowser to be this down, he was always roaring to cause some trouble or do something evil.
"Why?" Mario asked.
"Because…ugh. Because I lost that fight!" The Koopa King shook his head. "To an ice cold insect with an axe! We barely survived that fight and I'm only alive because that skeleton guy left. I've lost so much edge."
The plumber nodded, sitting next to Bowser and showing sympathy. "That a wasn't your a fault Bowser, we were a unprepared."
"BUT I'M BOWSER!" Bowser roared into the night sky, sparks coming out of his mouth. "I'm the Koopa King! I have a whole army and whole kingdom! I've captured princesses and planets! A bunch of other things and I lost! I'm supposed to be the greatest villain….."
That's when he was slapped across the face, with Mario giving him a stern look.
"Then a prove it! Prove that you're a the greatest villain! The real Bowser wouldn't be a sitting here moaning and a crying!" Mario through his hands up. "You know what he's be a doing? He'd be a plotting the next time he kidnaps the princess! The next a time he plans to take over a the Mushroom Kingdom! The next time he faces a with me!"
Bowser perked up and looked at Mario.
"He'd be a strong! Fierce, terrifying, powerful! You a name it! You're a everything that a villain should a be!" The plumber grit his teeth and pointed right at Bowser's face.
The Koopa King looked at his hands, and then at the moon, and then at his hands again.
He tightened his hands, turning them into fists while he got up from his chair.
"Yeah! You're right Mario! I can't keep being down like this! I've got so much left to do! I'm supposed to be evil dammit!"
But then he looked down again.
"But I don't feel motivated enough." Bowser said. "What's gonna get me back to my roots?"
The plumber put his finger to his mouth, trying to think of a way to cheer Bowser up.
That's when a lightbulb sparked above his head, with Mario taking out his phone and opening YouTube.
"I a know!" He smiled, clicking on a video and handing it to the turtle dragon. "Guess a what was revealed on a Thursday? My a new movie!"
"What? That movie's gonna be a train wreck." Bowser shook his head, holding Mario's phone while the trailer for the Super Mario Bros movie was playing. "I mean Jack Black playing me and Chris Pratt playing you? And it's made by Illumination? How good could this movie possibly b-"
One Mario Movie Trailer later…..
Bowser stared at the phone in absolute amazement, his eyes were wide and his jaw dropped.
The trailer just ended.
"That……that was me, and Jack Black voicing me." Bowser managed to say, dropping the phone right on the balcony floor. "It….it sounded good."
"Yup. Hey a wait! Why'd you drop a my phone?!" Mario asked as he scrambled to the ground and grabbed his phone.
"I sounded awesome. I destroyed that ice castle, those penguins didn't do anything to me." Bowser stared off into the stars, still recapping what he watched. "It sounded, evil!"
Mario looked up at the Koopa King, who was now rubbing his hands together and laughing maniacally.
"Yes, YES! This feeling, my mind, my heart. It's racing with excitement!" Bowser laughed and laughed, putting his foot up on the table. "I'm supposed to be evil, I was born this way!! Mwahahahaha, MWAHAHAHA!!! GAAAARRRRHHH!"
He let out a huge roar, before pulling out his phone and opening up his contacts.
He felt adrenaline all through his body, he hadn't felt like this in quite a while. He was feeling like his old self again.
Bowser put the phone to his ear. "Kamek! Bring the airship to the Smash Mansion! I'm coming home!!!"
Mario's eyes widened. "Wait a what?! I a thought that was just gonna motivate you! You're a leaving?!"
"For now! I'm going back to my roots for a while! Maybe conquer a few kingdoms, find some stars, I'm back!" Bowser answered the plumber as he put his phone away.
That's when a huge purple portal opened up out of nowhere, with purple magic shapes moving around.
Then suddenly, this gigantic airship came out of the portal, it had the head of Bowser himself at the front, with propellers all on it.
On the deck of the ship was an army of Goombas and Koopas, as well as Kamek.
Many blocks were conjured up out of thin air, being made into stairs from the balcony to the airship.
All the enemies saluted them both, with Kamek bowing in respect.
"Sire, it is great to see you again!" Said the wizard, with Bowser walking up the stairs.
"Thanks Kamek, hope you've been keeping my castle under control." Bowser grinned as he took out a pair of sunglasses and put them on.
"Wait!" Mario put his hand out as Bowser took out a remote control. "You can't a just leave Bowser! What about a Ainz?! Aren't you a gonna settle the score?!"
"Hah! I'll be back before that skeleton even lays one of his boney fingers on the mansion! I'm off to find myself again!"
He pressed a button on the remote, with some speakers on the ship blasting "Crazy in Love" by Beyoncé and Jay-Z.
Sorry, that beat slaps.
"OFF WE GO!!" Bowser pointed forward as the airship flew away, with the portal disappearing shortly after. "Mwahahahahahahaha!!"
In a house near the mansion…
"And so the little sun descended, with the little moon rising for the night. As the sun waited for the morning to rise up again."
Smiled Lucina as she was sitting in a rocking chair, ready a book to her baby. Soleil.
She closed the book and held Soleil, bringing her over to her crib and kissing her on the head.
"Goodnight my baby." The princess stated. "Mother and father love you deeply."
"MWAHAHAHAHA!"
That spooked Lucina, as she looked out to the window. Seeing Bowser laugh maniacally on his airship.
"No one's gonna stop me now!" He called out. "You here me?! NO ONE!"
Unfortunately his loud voice had caused baby Soleil to wake up, with her crying and throwing hit balled up fists around.
Lucina picked up her daughter in response, rocking her quickly.
"There There Soleil, don't cry honey."
"Ya hear that guys? It sounds like papa finally found himself."
Said Bowser Jr as he was in his room with the rest of the Koopalings, all resting on their beds.
"Now who's gonna stop me?!"
Goodnight everybody.
