Disclaimer - I own no Nintendo characters. If I did, I would be richer than
Hiroshi Yamauchi, but I'm not. So, on with the story.
Mario: City of Dreams
Interlude: Enter Luigi
Ludwig: O.K. hand me the Time Negative. Morton does so. Ludwig: Just a few more bits and bobs. 15 minutes later. Ludwig: That should it! You should now be able to go into the realm that Mario is in, in his mind. Bowser steps forth, but Luigi punches him back. Luigi: Oh no you don't. If you can do anything you'll backstab us if you're in there. But here are your 5 blue coins. Luigi hands over 5 blue coins. Bowser does his traditional evil laugh, and Luigi jumps in, falling down the exact same tunnel Mario did until he lands in some strange city. Luigi: Well, no time to waste, I'd better go find Mario before he gets himself killed.
Now.to the actual story.
Chapter 6: The Sea of Knowledge
Mario gets thrown around inside the warp pipe's tunnel. It's kind of like a huge slide in a cylindrical shape. Suddenly, after riding around a bit, Mario slams into a wall. Mario: Ouch-a! Mario looks. There are apparently four gateways, but only one of them is open. Behind him is a doorway back to the Warp Zone. The open door is marked 'The Sea of Knowledge'. Mario shrugs and jumps in, falls, and starts another wacky slide. In the Sea of Knowledge, a Warp Pipe appears and Mario comes shooting out of it. Mario: WA-HOO! Mario, upon realising that he is about to fall into the water, puts on a diving position.only to land in a ferry (headfirst!) Mario: .Ouch. Mario pulls himself up, to think about what's happening. Mario: I guess this is the ferry to the mainland.but if this is the Sea of Knowledge.we probably will be experiencing some barriers. Sooner or later a barrier comes up Captain: What is this?
Vice-Cap: It appears to be an invisible barrier, sir, but a question is forming. Mario: That's my cue! Mario jumps up and looks at the barrier. A question starts to form on the barrier. The question asks 'How many games has Mario been in? A 24. B 26. C 28.' Mario thinks for the answer and then concocts the correct answer in his mind. The barrier disappears, and the ferry continues through. Sooner or later, another invisible barrier with a question appears. Captain: Whose fault is this? Vice-Cap: I don't know sir, but there appears to be a Mario on there. Captain: Take him to the hull when you catch him. Meanwhile, outside. The question asks 'How many games has Luigi starred in? A 1. B 2. C 3. Mario thinks for a while, and just before it seems like the barrier will stay there, he answers the question. It is correct. Sooner or later, two security guards come on the scene, ready to take Mario in cuffs. Mario: What the. Mario turns around, and notices two security guards come on the scene, ready to take Mario in cuffs. Mario: Bummer. Mario starts darting around the ship. The security guards split up and chase after Mario two different ways. Mario: I know what to do here. Just as the two goons are about to catch him, he side somersaults onto a higher ledge on the ship. You can guess what happens. Mario sees the mainland, and hears a guy shout Lookout: LAND HO! Just then, another invisible barrier appears. The question asks 'How many games has Wario been in?' It doesn't give any choices. Mario: Oh boy.now let me see. Mario thinks about it, and soon thinks the question. It is correct, and the ship sails promptly to the mainland without any problems. Mario hops off at the.mainland? It looks like a tiny piece of island in reality. There isn't any way off except to.jump! Mario: Oh no. Mario, although extremely reluctant, jumps. Before he goes in a diving position, he lands on a step, and so forth steps down on the island. Mario takes a closer look a the island. Mario: Oh my. He was wondering why the island looked black from the ferry. Then he realised billions of people were jamming in to go to the portal. Man #1: I have the power so I'll go in! Man #2: No, you're a weakling compared to me! Man #3: Compared to me, you're both useless! I'm going in! But Mario has had enough of these yells. He runs, jumps straight over the bickering men, and into the portal Man #1: Hey! That guy went in! But.isn't he Mario?
Man #2: Hooray! Mario's come to save us! Man #3: No matter what, I should still have gone in? The bickering begins again. **Sorry for that brief interruption, NOW we'll go back to the real story. ** Mario falls down the huge well. Mario: Huh? Where's this big huge monster that should be here? In answer to his question, a huge splashing sound is heard from behind Mario. Mario turns around to have a look at whom it is. There, standing as large as life, is.
******Boss: Glooper Blooper! ******
Mario: It's Glooper Blooper! Well, this guy's no problem, I'll just take out FLUDD and. Mario reaches for FLUDD. Good luck, it isn't there! Mario: Well that's just wonderful. The huge octopus-like creature raises its arms in an attempt to smash Mario. Mario quickly jumps back, and the tentacles hit solid ground. Mario quickly jumps on the tentacles, but only reaches one. Mario pulls it back, and it snaps. Mario: Yeah! This is easy. Just then, the tentacle reattaches itself. Mario: WHAT?! Mario jumps back, and the tentacles only just miss Mario. Mario: How did the tentacles reattach themselves? Unless. Mario jumps over and punches the Glooper Blooper straight in the face. Instead of reacting instantly, the huge Blooper seems dazed. Mario: Idea! Mario then jumps on a tentacle, and pulls it back. His idea works, but before it reattaches, he takes it out with a few fireballs. The arm burns to shreds. Mario then repeats the process twice, taking out the other two arms. (A/N: It saves me from writing out heaps of lines on the same thing.) Mario punches Glooper Blooper in the face and jumps, however, his timing was off, and Glooper Blooper was only dazed for a few seconds. Before Mario can jump on the tentacle, it hoists him into the air. The huge octopus has Mario trapped very well, and Mario cannot move a muscle. Mario writhes around inside the tentacle, but cannot move. Then, the tentacle starts to crush him Mario: .Gulp! HACK!!
Mario is being choked to death on the spot. The Glooper Blooper looks at its prey.almost as if it were smiling. Mario: Choke! Cough! Hack! .Help. Zero Hour is coming soon for Mario. It looks this is the end.or is it? Suddenly, Mario drops to the ground, pretty much out of the match. He manages to get a half-second glimpse of who saved him Mario: .Luigi. Then Mario drops, out cold. Meanwhile, Luigi takes out the remaining tentacle, and takes out Glooper Blooper. The huge Blooper puffs up, and shoots off into the air. It lands in the water, and explodes. Luigi: I did it! Woo-hoo! Luigi grabs Mario and drags him into the Warp Pipe, which shot up from out of nowhere, and jumps in. Luigi: Whee! The slide takes our two heroes all the way back to the Warp Zone WarpMaster: I am surprised, that you somehow managed to make it through to your brother. Luigi: We're the Super Mario Bros! We can do anything! WarpMaster: Well, you'd better take your brother to the local hospital; they can fix him up there! Luigi: Thanks! Luigi slings Mario over his shoulder and walks into the warp, brave as he can be.
