Disclaimer: I don't own SM: RPG.

A/N: Officially at 10:19 on December 9, Monday, 2002 I beat Super Mario RPG: Legend of the seven stars. In addition, I'd like to thank everyone who reviewed my story. I can't believe I kept this going too an 11th chapter...must just be bored... Oh and Luigi Mario: KOG, I just call it Star summit because I've never really played Paper Mario and I was just told that "Star summit" is the real name. It might just be a knick name my friends gave it or something. Anyway, your not going to see anymore of it...I think...I dunno...most likely it won't have any more big parts but if it does, I'm just gonna call it Stat summit.

Super Mario RPG 3?

Chapter 11: Return of Metal Android #4

The group looked on as the red light began to dim down. "What just happened there?" Ask Mario.

Geno turned and looked at them. "Well, the gate stone just opened a portal to 'world', and an hour eclipse has taken place." He said, pointing towards the sky. The sky was still crimson, but slowly lightning up to a pink-ish color. "The moon and sun overlapping each other means that our world is inline with two other worlds, creating a semi-stable portal. We have one hour to get through the portal before it closes and we have to wait until a new gate stone arrives."

"How long would that be, dare I ask?" Ask Toadason.

Geno closed his eyes for a second and thought. "About One thousand years for the stone to be made and one hundred years to get here so one thousand and one hundred years, give or take a hundred." He finished, re-opening his eyes.

There was a long silence. "I don't think I wanna wait that long..." Peach said, breaking the silence.

Nods of agreement went along with Peach's statement. "Then we should make haste and enter the portal." Geno told them and he stepped towards a floating rip in the time-space continuum.

"AAAHHH!" Yelled Twink, who was in the back of the line. The others turned around in time to see Twink begin pulled away by a golden net and the net withdrawing towards a giant laser gun.

Bowser, Toad, and Mario knew all too quickly what it was. "It's the Koopa- Blasta 700 Alpha-Omega!" Exclaimed Bowser and he pointed a claw towards the machine.

Mallow, Peach, Geno, Toadason, and Toadstone looked at each other before exclaiming all at once, "The what?"

Mario quickly ran off while saying, "Explain later! Get into the world NOW!"

"I'll come too!" Exclaimed Bowser as he rolled down the hill after Mario. "If you die down there I'll never forgive myself! I have to be the one to kill you!"

`-`-`-`-`-`-`

The net retracted into a section of the giant laser. Twink tried to yell, but the mysterious golden net muffled them. Soon after Twink was inside the machine, a metal Koopa slammed a door onto the hole, covering it. "Sir, the star kid is in the Koopa-Blasta 700 Alpha thing".

There was a laugh from behind the Koopa-Blasta 700 Alpha-Omega. Out stepped from behind it, the toad known as Metal Android #4. "Good. Just two left to go! I should inform Natsurakru...ah well...it can wait. HAHA!" Exclaimed the android as he hopped into the chair of the laser gun. He pressed a button and tons of green beams began to shoot out from every which way and began destroying what little buildings and killing what little survivors the Mushroom Kingdom had left to afford.

"Um...sir..." Came the voice of a girl behind Metal Android #4.

Metal Android turned around to see a young girl with blonde hair, which was in a ponytail and had sapphire eyes. She wore a red dress with an apron over it. On the left side of the apron it read, in bold letters, 'Proud member of the Metal Android #4 division of the Natsurakru army.' "Emily, what brings you here?" Android #4 commanded.

"Sorry to bother you sir, but the life signal from Rukiu has completely disappeared."

Metal Android #4 quickly jumped out of the cockpit of the Koopa-Blasta and ran to a near computer. "Wha- WHAT?!?! RUKIU!? HE'S DEAD???"

Emily walked behind Metal Android #4 and nodded solemnly. "Yes, he is."

Metal Android #4 was now clicking through files. "What about Hannah. If she's not okay then I'll be-"

"We haven't been able to pick up her life force either."

Metal Android turned around and began to loom over Emily with an angry face. "You better find her life force. I know she's still alive or else the other star children would die out."

Emily nodded and walked back to her station in the makeshift base that has been created. She sat and looked at the screen. Rukiu's' life force rating was growing rapidly. "Oh Rukiu...you better stay dead until this war is over. Then we can life happily forever."

#4 turned with a whip of his cape and walked back towards the machine. He hopped back into the seat and was about to press a button when a foot came colliding with his face, sending him flying off the seat. He skidded across the ground creating a long ditch. "Who did that?!?" He exclaimed looking around. Upon turning his eyes back to the Koopa-Blasta he saw the one who kicked him. Mario. "Oh, it's you again." He said, standing up.

"Yeah it's me." Mario said, jumping off the machine. "What did you do with Twink!?"

Metal Android #4 laughed. "That's for me to know." #4 ran towards Mario with a punch ready, however, Mario quickly grabbed his hand and swung around him and elbowed him in the back. #4 fell to the ground with a thud.

Mario quickly picked up the metal monster and brought him to his face. "Now where did you put Twink?" He asked again.

Metal Android didn't responded. Instead he head butted Mario, causing him to left go. Once landing, he launched a quick kick into Mario's gut, causing Mario to double over. #4 then jumped upward and came down on Mario, both of his feet planted deep in Mario's spine. This action pushed Mario into the ground and a small crater around him. "Now Mario...I'm not going to tell you where I hid Twink..."

"You better if you know what's good for ya!" Yelled a voice from behind the two. #4 turned around only to see a claw be slammed into his face.

"You!" #4 said, his voice breaking up.

"Yeah, it's me..." Bowser said squeezing his hand shut. Once done, Metal Android's head exploded in a giant ball of flames. Bowser withdrew his hand as the metal body fell to the ground with a flop. "That'll teach you for stealing my ray gun..."

"Oh really?" Came a voice. The voice was wispy and cold and it suddenly felt as if the entire world around Bowser and Mario had frozen up which was impossible because of all the fires surrounding him. Soon after, a dark fog covered the duo.

"What was that?" Mario asked, stepping out of the crater. "Where's Metal?"

"Metal is dead...I think..."

`-`-`-`-`-`-`

Geno paced back and forth. "They've been gone too long...something has happened, I can sense it." Geno walked over to the other five. "You must listen to me. Get into world now."

"But aren't we gonna wait for Mario and Bowser?" Peach asked.

"They've been gone too long. It's been a half hour; the portal will close in 30 minutes. If we don't get through now...well you know."

"But I'm not leaving without Mario." Said Peach stepping up to Geno.

Geno looked down slightly. "Forgive me for this then." He whispered as he pushed the princess.

"AAAAAAAA!" Peach yelled as she yelled into the void.

Geno turned and began walking away. "I suggest you go now so you'll land around the same area." Toadason looked at Geno with an angry look before he grabbed Toad and Toadstone and jumped in as well. "Mallow..."

Mallow turned to Geno. "Yes?"

"If we don't make it in, it'll be up to you to protect the princess." Mallow was about to protest, but upon a quick rethinking, he nodded slightly and jumped into the void.

After watching the cloud hop into the portal, Geno turned and began to dash down the hill. Within a few minutes, the figures of the Koopa-Blasta, Bowser, and Mario came into view. The scene angered Geno. "Why the hell are they just standing around!" He yelled to no one. Geno was about to continue his descent down the summit, when he noticed a fourth figure. It was a small boy, almost a midget. He was standing with both his hands out and a black fog emitting from them. This fog was covering Mario and Bowser. Geno stopped in his tracks and looked at the boy. He was wearing a green shirt but the rest of him wasn't visible. "No he can't be...not this soon!" Geno said. "Why would Natsurakru attack now!"

`-`-`-`-`-`

With only 25 minutes left, will Geno be able to get Mario, Bowser, and Twink into world? And is this little child really Natsurakru? And what about Rukiu and Hannah? And the mystery behind this Emily. Most of this and more will be answered next time...

To be continued...
