The Yoshi Cavalry Unit By Regulus777 Chapter IV Clash with Toad

Disclaimer-Ha ha ha crud... I forgot to add this to the last 2 chapters but its not that big a deal. Mario and related stuff is all owned by Nintendo, and we all know Nintendo rocks! Anyways this disclaimer goes for the last 2 chapters as well.

Koopz and Mario began talking about what they should do when they attack the fortress. They could end up severely outnumbered too. Mario came up with a plan. "Listen Koopz let me take 5 men and the 4 shy guys." He said. Koopz argued "Why do you want them?" Mario reasoned "Listen the shy guys can tell them they captured me and the others. We will get into the castle and then right when they are letting us in, we begin our attack! Then while the gate is open you bring in the rest of the soldiers quick." Koopz then amazed replied "What a good plan Mario.. You are a very good strategist." They prepared their forces and told them about the plan. The shy guys agreed to it. Then Mario who had concealed himself with his men with daggers and throwing knives hidden on them and without there yoshis (except for the shy guys) were being brought toward the fortress. One of the shy guys yelled up the wall "Hello! We have prisoners we'd like to bring in." A mysterious fully armored knight with a head quite large compared to his body appeared at the top of the walls with a few koopas. The knight yelled down to them "Okay we will open the gate for you. A few koopas opened the gate with a few elite koopas in full armor behind them standing in formation. They got on the bridge and the prisoners ripped off their clocks and started throwing their knives. The koopas started dropping like flies at this surprise attack. The gate keeper ran for the gate controls and Mario threw his last knife carefully and got the koopa in the back of the head. The koopa dropped only a few feet away from the gate controls. The knight jumped down and pulled out a sword. He looked Mario in the eye. He ran at Mario noticing nothing else but him. The blade came down with tremendous force. Mario ducked to the side and the blade hit the dirt. Mario then kicked the knight in the gut. He lost grip[ of his sword and fell to the ground. Mario was about to pick up the sword when the blade was shot by a bullet and flung a few yards away. Mario turned and saw the knight had pulled out a revolver. The knight pointed it at Mario and pulled the trigger. Mario's left shoulder thudded backwards. A quick spatter of blood shot out of him. Mario fell to the ground and tried to grasp his shoulder. The knight walked up to him and pointed the gun down to Mario's head. "This ends now." he said just loud enough for Mario to hear. Then a foot came right into the side of the knight's face and he was whacked to the ground and his helmet flung off from the hard hit. The knight was revealed to be Toad! Luigi then jumped over to Mario "Darn I wasn't fast enough, Can you get up Mario?" he asked. Mario replied "I think so but I can't use this arm good though." "Okay then. Let me handle this one!" Luigi finished. Toad had gotten up and he picked his revolver back up. Toad laughed "I killed both of the Mario brothers in one night." He lifted his arm but Luigi pulled out a sword and threw it with all his strength. The bullet fired. The sword went into Toad's stomach from the spot where two pieces of armor connected. They had been undone from the fall Toad took from Luigi's kick. The bullet flew behind Luigi over his shoulder but it had still got someone. One of the shy guys grunted and fell to the ground lifeless. Luigi walked up to Toad. "Why, what did you achieve by doing this Toad?" he said in disbelief. Toad then looked at him. "Well it is not the best reason but I'll tell you. I was sick of you and Mario getting to fight all the time but I didn't get to do anything. I always had to stay at the castle. I just wanted a little action in my life. Well I thought fighting you might've been interesting. I did pay for my mistakes." He lifted up his revolver, but to Luigi's surprise he lifted it by the barrel. He then said with his last breath, "Here Luigi take my revolver so you can remember our fight. Good bye Luigi..." Toad then closed his eyes and turned over.

Koopz had pushed the last of Toad's men into a small room in the fortress where they had been locked in. Koopz yelled out to his men "Victory!" All the soldiers cheered. Koopz and a few others went outside. Koopz saw Luigi helping out Mario. "What happened?" Koopz asked. Luigi replied "Mario took a bad hit to the shoulder. I don't think he is in any good condition to help us for awhile." "I see, men take Mario inside and get him a bed!" He yelled. A few soldiers then picked up Mario carefully and did as they were told. Koopz tehn grabbed Luigi's shoulder "I know how you feel but we should continue to advance before Bowser makes his defenses stronger." Luigi said surprisingly "Yes Koopz you are right. Bowser is going down!" Koopz then called to his soldiers "Okay listen up guys! I want a few of you to stay here to watch over Mario and the prisoners. The rest of you come with me. We are moving out!"
