Chapter 6
Flying high in the air, circling the Palace of Power, was Metroid, the
brain-shaped ship of the evil Mother Brain.
Mother Brain was a huge brain connected to an ugly pink face. She was
encased inside a protective glass jar, and had two tentacles.
Mother Brain and her two servants, King Hippo from the strange world of
Punch-Out, and the Eggplant Wizard from Mount Icarus, were in Mother Brain's
layer deep within Metroid, watching the viewscreen with great interest.
Mother Brain's troops were winning.
King Hippo turned to Eggplant Wizard and laughed. "Ha, ha, we're too
strong for 'em!"
Eggy nodded in agreement.
Mother Brain extended her left tentacle from her glass jar, curled it
around King Hippo's right leg, and lifted him off the floor.
The blue hippo yelled.
Mother Brain brought him close to her, so that he was staring at her
upside-down.
"Who's too strong for them, King Hippo?!" Mother Brain asked.
"Uh, uh - you! You're to strong for 'em, Mother Brain!" King Hippo
stuttered.
Mother Brain smiled evilly.
The Eggplant Wizard laughed to himself.
But Mother Brain heard him. "What's so funny, Eggplant Wizard?!"
Eggy was startled. He looked around, then at Mother Brain, and pointed at
himself. "Uh, who - me?" He asked nervously, stuttering.
Eggy looked up. King Hippo yelled as Mother Brain dropped him. Eggy tried
to run away, vegetables popping out of him, but the heavy hippo landed on
him.
Eggy raised his head from the floor. "Nothing, Mother Brain, uh,
nothing's funny at all!"
Mother Brain smiled. "That's right! Especially for those poor souls in
the Palace of Power! It won't be long before I, beautiful goddess that I am,
become Queen of Videoland!"
She then let out a long, evil laugh. Eggy joined in quietly.
As Metroid was flying past the front of the Palace of Power, Princess
Lana had gathered in the Throne Room with three warriors that she had
summoned to help Videoland in the war against Mother Brain.
They were Simon Belmont, the vampire hunter from Castlevania, Mega Man,
the robot creation of Dr. Right from Mega Land, and Kid Icarus, the winged
archer from Mount Icarus.
Lana expected them all to be dead within an hour.
Lana was sitting on her throne - her father's throne.
The sad Princess was wearing her usual clothes: a white and pink skirt,
a pink sleeveless shirt with white shoulders, blue boots with a yellow
stripe on each, a gold crown on her head, a green and gold necklace around
her neck, and gold earrings.
Her long, beautiful, brown hair was hanging down. It was straight, not
curly. Some of it was standing up in the back, held by a small blue band. It
was her personal style. She had always liked her hair like that.
Tears were about to come pouring out of her beautiful green eyes.
Mega Man was standing to her right.
Standing in back of Mega Man was Simon.
To Lana's left flew Kid Icarus.
