Disclaimer: I don't own Mario or Sonic.


Mario glared at Sonic.

Sonic frowned at Mario.

The Italian Plumber folded his arms.

The supersonic hedgehog tapped his foot.

Both rivals were gazing at each other with intense dislike. Neither of them were keeping their mutual hatred of one another secret. Never had they managed to get along, not that they even bother to try.

"I no understand why ev'rybody a-loves you, Sonic!" Mario huffed.

"I don't see why the world loves you either, Mario." Sonic muttered.

"I'm a-clearly better than you!"

"No, I'm better than you! What's so great about being a plumber?"

"What so great about being plumber?!" Mario's gloved hand clenched into a fist. "Why, I get to travel from one place to another - by descending a-down pipes!"

"Is that all?" Sonic rolled his eyes, impressed. "Being a plumber ain't that cool!"

"Oh no?!" Mario's face was turning as red as his hat. "And being hedgehog is?"

"It is when you're a hedgehog who can go faster than the speed of light." Sonic's own face was turning bluer than usual. "Who wants to go anywhere by sinking down pipes - when you can run there?!"

"If you so fast, dodge this!"

Without warning, Mario hurled a green Koopa Shell in Sonic's direction. It rolled along the ground towards the blue hedgehog, who jumped out of the way in time.

"Ha!" Sonic sneered. "Ya see, Mario, I'm too quick for ya! There's no way you can keep up with the world's fastest hedge-WHOA!"

Sonic was cut off by the Koopa Shell, which had bounced off a wall and rolled up behind his back. It threw the hedgehog off his feet, bringing a startled cry out of him as he was flung forward to crash into Mario.

The two rivals groaned as they lay in a heap on the ground. All their arguing and bickering over who was the better of them had caused them both to get hurt.

"So no cool!" Mario muttered, letting out a phrase similar to what the supersonic hedgehog would say.

"Mamma Mia…" Sonic slurred, stealing the Italian Plumber's catchphrase.


The end.
