Me: It's me again! Let me say again that I don't own Sonic and Mario characters. Those are rightfully owned by Nintendo and Sega….Max where did you get that picture of Sonic and Mario?
Max: I took a trip through the Nexus Tower and went into Anthony Bault's world after I read his review. Some dude named T-Bone was kind enough to give me a copy of this.
Me: Cool! Can I see it?
Max: Not now! I'm gonna impress Ann like hell when I show her this! Where is she?
Me: I think she and Lance are making out in the park.
Max: WHAT?! (Dashes in sonic speed and drops the photo, and I grab it)
Me: Finders Keepers. Hey Link and Mega Man are in this too! While I put this in my computer JPEG file collection, why don't you read the next chapter?
Sonic and Mario
(Play: It doesn't matter, SA2 version)
I'm Sonic! Sonic the Hedgehog! Eggman was up to his old tricks, again. He once again stolen the Master Emerald and used it for a new Chaos Cannon. As me and the gang followed his Egg Carrier, we saw him firing the cannon at a Star-Post and opened a huge portal to a world filled with walking mushrooms. We crashed and got separated in a forest where I ran into a little girl mushroom, who helped me out, and two plumber dweebs and a smelly monkey. Well I have to hand it to them: they put up a good fight for Tails, Knuckles, and I. Luckily, we joined forces after we creamed Zero and a bunch of turtles with hammers. Now that Mario and I tagged teamed, is off to Toad Town!
(End song)
Chapter 9- The coming of the Eggman to Toad Town.
In the town at the foot of Princess Peach Toadstool's castle, called Toad Town, a small cotton puff boy with a pink swirl for hair, little eyes, blue and white paints with a belt with his name written in it, short legs, and pink boots walked toward the front gate of the castle, where he was stopped by two mushroom guards.
"Halt there, Nimbus citizen! State your business!" one of the guards said.
"I'm Prince Mallow Nimbus of Nimbus Land. I come to see Mario and the princess!"
"I remember you! You're the kid that helped Mario defeat Smithy!" the other guard said. "The princess is here, but Mario ran off to chase some terrorists that ran havoc around the town. I'm sure he'll be here shortly."
"Okay. Can you please let me in?"
"No problem. Just got to……!" the guard looked up in the sky with blank face. "….oh…..my…!"
"What? What's wrong?" the other guard asked.
The frightened guard pointed to where he was looking at. As the guard looked up to where he was looking, he too was stood stiff in a frightened look. Mallow joined in, but his mouth shook like a leaf as he saw what he couldn't believe.
"By the Great Sprits of the Ancestors of the Nimbus rulers, what is that?" Mallow shouted as he witnessed a huge, futuristic ship approaching the kingdom.
"My god! Koopa went all out!" one of the guards said.
***********
Meanwhile in Mushroom Way Forest, Mario, Luigi, and Donkey Kong led the Mobians to Toad Town. They had a rough day after Mario and Sonic fought each other after a misunderstanding, then they fought some Hammer Bros. and the chase master, Zero. The Mobians forgiven Mario, and his friends for the mistake, and now Mario were leading his new friends to meet Princess Toadstool.
As strolled through the forest, Mighty and Donkey Kong helped carry the damaged Tornado 3 for Tails while Donkey Kong and Knuckles chatted about their sacred duty. Luigi and Tails discuss about each other's world, while Sonic, Sally, and Mario discussed about the events that happened today.
"So you guard a Crystal Coconut, huh? I have the same duty with the Master Emerald. So what is the purpose of the crystal?"
"Well its power is a mystery, but whoever holds the crystal and guards it is destined to be the ruler of Congo Bongo Island."
"Interesting… I'm not sure the Master Emerald has that purpose, but it keeps my island afloat above the clouds."
"Whoa! Cool!"
You could imagine how Rouge who has no one to talk to feels when forced to listen to their conversation. ~sigh~ Listening to these sacred idiots babble about guardian this and that is so annoying. I don't know why I'm sticking around here with Knuckle-Head?
Rouge got out of her thought and looked at Knuckles from his side. Her face blushed pink when she stared at him, then shook off the feeling when Gombaria said: "You like that red mole, huh?"
"What? No! I….just was feeling hot from the hot weather!" Rouge said as she blushed.
"Okay! I believe you! NOT!"
"So what kind of inventions have you tried to create?" Tails asked Luigi.
"Well, I just started to invent things last week, after that mansion thing. So far I made an electric plunger. Boy was that a mistake, heh, heh. So how those flowers give you guys a flame shield instead of shooting fireballs?"
"In our world, we have Fire Shield power-ups! I guess those flowers reacted to the leftover effect. I'm really amazed of this planet's resources! No wonder Eggman is interested in this world!"
"Who..?"
"The guy that send that robot!"
Luigi became pale, then. "Oh…crud!"
"..When Robotnik opened a portal to your world, we followed him, but he shot us down!" Sally said to Mario.
"Eggman probably send my robotic faker, Metal Sonic, to wreck havoc in your town to frame me!"
"Does this Metal Sonic look something like that?" Mario asked as he pointed to Metal's damaged corpse in the middle of the road. The group rushed to the body as Sally took out her hand held computer, Nicole.
"There's the bastard that framed me!" Sonic said as he kicked Metal's head.
"Sonic, stop! Let me bypass his memory banks!" Sally said as she connected wires from Nicole to Metal's head. "Nicole! Download Metal's memory to your hard-drive!"
"One moment, Sally……………..Download, complete! 50% of memory, recovered."
"Guess most of his memory was destroyed. Darn! I was hoping we could use him to find out what Robotnik was up to!" Sally sighed.
"That's one nifty gadget! Must be thousand times better then Compaq© !" Luigi said.
"Looks like nothing Bill Gates can make!" Mario said.
Within seconds, Nicole showed a hologram of data programs that only Sally and Tails can understand, and maybe Luigi (A/N: I know that Luigi isn't a inventor, or a semi computer wiz, but this is my fic, and Luigi need something to rival Tails by.). It also showed some kind of video clip of Metal heading toward Toad Town, but then got cut off line.
"From the looks of that, Metal never made it to Toad Town. It also showed that he didn't see who or what attacked him." Sally said as she shut down Nicole.
It doesn't make sense. Mario dug through his head, trying to think of a logical explanation without blaming the blue rodent. "Well somebody attacked the town, and it wasn't Sonic. Donkey, are you sure you didn't get a good look at the attacker, beside the hair?"
The gorilla scratched his head. "Well…I couldn't see the rest of him. He was moving in a black blur!"
Now Espio was into thought. "Metal Sonic is blue! And Eggman couldn't make a black Metal Sonic that would attack this Metal!"
"Maybe…..What if it was that black hedgehog?" Ray asked.
Rouge gasped, as if memory kicked in her fears. "You don't mean Shadow, do you?"
"No way! Shadow is dead!" Sonic snapped, startling the others. "…And he would never do anything like this to frame me
"Uh…then how would you explain your run-in with GUN?" Sally asked, coolly.
Sonic shot a look at the princess. "That was before! You saw how he sacrificed himself to save Mobius did you, Tails…Knuckles?" The two gave an unsure shrug
"Hang on, guys! I see Yoshi, coming!" Mario said.
From ahead of the group, Yoshi ran to Mario with a feared face. He started saying his name over and over like a Pokemon, and hopping up and down in a nervous break.
"Yoshi, calm down! What is wrong?" Mario asked.
"YOSHI! YOSHI! YOSHI!" he yelled.
Charmy's mind began to spin from all this…name talk. "What…did he say?"
"He said that the kingdom is under attack by the Koopas and robots, and there is a huge ship above the kingdom!" Mario translated.
"EGGMAN!!" Sonic yelled, making some of the Mobians, and especially Luigi jump. "That egg shaped bastard!"
"And who is are these Koopas?" Amy asked.
"They're those turtles you faced. Their leader is a creep named King Bowser Koopa." Luigi said.
Sally grimed, putting together the conclusion. "No doubt Robotnik and Bowser joined forces." She then motioned to the Mobians. "All right, crew. Let's move out to Toad Town, on the double!"
"YES, MA'AM!!" all the Mobians, except Amy, saluted.
"All right then..." Mario said as he adjusted his hat. "LETS-A-GO!!"

Chapter 10 – The return of the RPG duo.
(Play Egg Carrier theme.)
Meanwhile, in Toad Town, the citizens ran for their lives as the ship above the town known as the Egg Carrier dropped an army of Koopas down to the town. Most of the Koopa Troopas as equipped with fire breathing Piranha Plants and laser blasters, curtsey of Dr. Robotnik. There were also Para Koopas and Gombas and the whole Koopa force you can think of, dropping down as they wreck havoc on the town.
Mallow hid behind some bushes from the Koopa horde. Even after the adventure he had with Mario when Smithy took over, he still was still a chicken.
"Man, there's too many of those Koopas, and only one of me!"
The Mushroom Kingdom guards were no match the forces of the Koopas and their new weapons, as Princess Peach Toadstool witnessed from her window, inside her room. She was also in fear of the huge flying ship that was slowly heading toward the castle.
"W…What...is that thing? Is that Bowser's?" Peach asked Toad.
"I doubt it! You know how cheep Bowser is! And there is no way his genius Koopa Kid can make something like that!"
"Has Mario come back? We need him right now!"
"No, he's still chasing that guy who attacked Donkey Kong, earlier. Yoshi is already searching for him."
In the meantime, Peach felt helpless. This strange battleship looks more dangerous than Bowser's Doom Ships he once had years ago. She needed a way to overcome this, before this ship destroys the kingdom. She hates to feel so helpless. Being a damsel in distress more than 24/7 can reach its toll, and Peach passed it long ago. She just wishes she can do something…but for now, she needs Mario.
"I hope he get here soon. Right now we need a miracle!"
Meanwhile, Mallow watch and trembled over the forces of the Koopas as they destroyed, burned everything in sight.
"I gotta do something! If I helped Mario defeat Smithy, then by god, I can beat these Koopas!" Mallow said in a new determination, with the fear leaving his heart.
"Then, my friend, shall we defeat these tyrants together?" a voice from behind said.
Mallow turned around and was in shock to see a huge walking wooden doll with orange hair, a blue hat and cape. Not only that, he was someone Mallow recognized.
"GENO!!" Mallow shouted with joy. "Long time no see! I'm glad that you're here!"
"The feeling is mutual, but we'll settle the hellos, later." Geno said as he set his arm gun. "Right now, we have a kingdom to save!"
"YEAH! LET'S GO!!" Mallow said as he took out his Sonic Cymbals ran rushed to a near by group of Koopas. Now with his old friend, Mallow regained his confidents back and was ready to defend the kingdom.
As Mallow stood in front of the Koopa Troopas, they set their laser guns, but Mallow slammed his cymbals together, spread them to release a sonic shockwave that is loud enough to hurt someone's ears, which it did to the Koopas. Geno came forward and raised his arm gun straight at the Koopas. Mallow noticed something different about Geno.
"Hey your arm looks pretty big. Did you work out?" Mallow asked.
"Not really. Gaz, who owned this toy, made some improvements." Geno said as he pointed to his arm that was bigger than before, which it looked like Mega Man's arm blaster, except it was made out of wood. Geno returned to what he was doing and charged his blaster and shouted: "GENO BEAM!!"
Geno shot a huge beam of star energy, and blasted the Koopas away.
"Nice work, Geno!" Mallow said.
"There is much work to be done, my friend. That ship up there looks nothing like Bowser's creations." Geno said.
"Maybe this could work!" Mallow said.
Mallow's eyes stared to glow blue as electricity surged through them, as that happened, the skies turned dark gray over the Egg Carrier, then it started to bring lighting and thunder over the ship. As Mallow surged pure electricity, he shouted: "SHOCKER!!"
A huge lightning bolt emerged from the clouds and caused huge damage to the top of the Egg Carrier.
"Looks like we caused some damage on that thing, but we better save our energy for the army. I don't think that thing can be destroyed so easily." Geno said.
Peach watched the whole thing from her castle. The whole effects looked awfully familiar to her.
"Mallow! Thank god he's here!" she said.
Toad gazed with worry at the hell sight. "You think he can take down this army alone?"
"Trust me; if he helped us beat that devil, Smithy, then surely he can deal with this…I hope."
Back in the Egg Carrier, the ship shook after the lightning bolt hit the ship. Robotnik nearly fell off his chair in the control room, after that blast.
"What the devil was that?" Robotnik asked, gripping onto the chair's arms.
"I know that attack. It's from that puff ball, the Prince of Nimbus Land!" Bowser said.
"Interesting power! Computer, have the Badnik machine create something that can withstand his power!"
~Acknowledged~

Chapter 11- Sonic & Mario Kart
Miles from the kingdom, Sonic, Mario and the group look over a cliff, where they just seen the Egg Carrier get hit by a lightning bolt.
"MAMA MIA!! LOOK AT THE SIZE OF THAT THING!!" Luigi shouted as he awed the Egg Carrier.
This just perfect…Eggman's now attacking the kingdom, according to Tails' eyes. But he was curious on what hit that ship. "What caused that lightning bolt to strike the Egg Carrier?"
Mario can easily answer that. "Mallow! That's who. Good ol' reliable Mallow! He bought us some more time!"
"Yeah, but do you think he gave enough? That castle of yours looks miles away." Said Espio. "Sonic might make it in time, but us…now way!"
"You're right…" said Sally, pondering at the sight. "We need some transportation."
"Hey looks like a race track, down there!" Amy said as she pointed to it that was at the foot of the cliff.
"That is Peach's Raceway! It'll lead us straight to the kingdom." Mario said.
"Is there a faster way to the kingdom?" Sally asked.
"Well there is this pipe!" someone said as he popped out of it. "But it's destroyed by the Koopas. I just got through before they did."
"Gombario! I'm glad that you're all right!" Gombaria said.
"Yeah, but you guys gotta stop those Koopas, quick. Going through this pipe is now out of the question!"
"All right... You see that garage there?" Mario said as he pointed to it. "There are plenty of go-carts in there. We can use them to quickly get to the kingdom."
"Is there a repair shop in this race track?" Tails asked as Mario nodded. "Does it have enough supplies to help fix my Tornado?"
"Well it is enough to fix five go-carts at once, so I guess."
"Great! DK, Mighty! Help me get the Tornado in there! I'll meet you guys later."
Sonic raised a brow at his little friend. "But Tails, are you sure you can fix this thing on time?"
"Don't worry. The Tornado isn't that damaged, thanks to me landing it as careful as I can, so I can fix this thing in a sonic second!"
Grinning, Sonic gave a thumbs-up. "Okay... All right, crew, get those go-carts ready and let's get going!"
As DK, Mighty, and Tails put the Tornado in the shop, Mario opened the garage and revealed many go-carts of different colors. Everyone got in a go-cart, except Sonic, Knuckles, Charmy, Ray, Rouge and Tails because they don't need a go-cart and Tails is too busy fixing his plane.
The gang drove through the raceway with Sonic in the lead. Mario just remembered to ask if they knew how to drive, but looking back, they seem to be handling the carts just fine. Little did he know was that most of the Sonic crew had a little go-kart race of their own: Sonic Drift. Sonic R was more of a foot race, but Amy and Robotnik were the only ones who had to use vehicles.
"How much longer till we get to the kingdom?" Sally asked.
"It's not that far." Gombario said on Luigi's head as he passed her by. "We just need to go over the river with the speed ramp and….!" Gombario eyes went bugged wide as he spotted some Para Koopas and Buzz Bombers, straight ahead. "Guys, there is some Para Koopas and bee robots heading toward us!"
Sonic took a look ahead. Indeed, a couple of flying Badniks, plus turtles on wings were heading their way. "Buzz Bombers! No prob! I'll handle them!"
"Save some for me, Sonic!" Knuckles said as he guided through the winds.
Sonic jumped and used his Homing Spin on most of the Para Koopas and Buzz Bombers, while Knuckles glided through the rest by raising his fist and smashing them out of the sky. Mario and Luigi shot some fireballs from their hands, blastinf the bots and Koopas out of the air
"Adios, losers!" Amy said as she waved the falling baddies with a yellow cape, as they fell into the hills.
"Don't celebrate, yet! Here come some more!" Espio said as more came.
The badnik bees fired a beam of lasers from their stingers. The drivers barely steered their way around the shots. Amy twists and turned, praying that she wouldn't get hit and that Sonic will protect her. Mighty maneuvered the shots as well, but relied on his shell to defect the blasts.
The Para Koopas closed in as the Buzz Bombers pulled off to make room. The turtles dropped little bombs with wind-up keys on their backs, which these bombs are called: Ba-Bombs. They exploded when they hit the ground, making those like Sally, Luigi, and Vector spin out of control.
Vector gained more control and calmed his cart down, but Sally and Luigi were spinning against their will straight towards the river. Sonic came to the rescue, grabbed Sally's cart, between her and the river, and used his Figure Eight Dash to fight the spin, while Rouge merely kicked Luigi's cart away from the river.
As Sally's kart began to regain control, Sonic gave a little push to keep it on track. "You alright, Sal?"
The princess was over flattered and relived, her face blushed red. "Uh…I am now…course I could've handle it myself."
"Quit bragging, Sal; that's my job."
Amy though was close enough to witness this sickening display, she was on the verge to leap out of the car and throttle that furry princess.
"YOSHI!!" the dino screamed from behind.
Amy wondered what was eating him until she saw him pointing at something above her. A Para Koopa just dropped a bomb straight at her, making her see her doom.
"SONIC!! HELP!!!"
With the swiftness of time, Sonic leaped back above Amy and gave an axel kick to the Ba-Bomb, ricocheting it right back at its thrower and blowing him right in the water.
Sonic landed before Amy and picked up the speed. He glanced back to his best friend. "You okay, Amy?"
He read this coming; Amy's eyes sparkled like a beautiful crystal Christmas ornament. Soon, she stepped the gas pedal down to the floor and revved after Sonic.
"OH SONIC, I KNEW YOU'LL SAVE ME! I KNEW IT! I KNEW YOU LIKE ME!!"
As the hedgehog poor the juice in his speed, he figured that maybe he should've let that bomb blow her to kingdom…nah, that'll be so cruel.
"Not now, Amy! We still got trouble!" With that, Sonic dashed past the other racers to intercept the in-coming baddies.
Amy snarled; once again, Sonic ditched her. "SONIC!! YOU BRAT!!"
Sally rolled her eyes after turning back to the road. She then gasped at more of the baddies coming at them as they reached to the bridge. "Mario, isn't there a way to…?"
"Yo, plumber dude! What are those colored blocks?" Vector shouted.
Sally looked ahead and found some colored blocks layed in there way. The mind warned to maybe move out of the way, but then Luigi then warned…
"They're like the question blocks! Just run through them!"
Most of the Mobians hestitated, but they obeyed and raced to the blocks. The racers ran right through the blocks. A random item appeared on most of the racers' laps.
"Yo' I got a banana peel! Crud!" Vector said, unsatisfied.
"I got a star!" Amy said.
"A green shell?" Sally said.
"A spiked shell! Cool!" Mighty said. "What do we do with them?"
"No problem guys! Sally, that shell is just something to throw, same with the banana peel!" Mario said.
Sally and Vector tossed the shell and peel at a Buzz Bomber and Para Koopa. The banana peel hit and blinded the Koopas' face and caused him to crash, while the shell destroyed the robot.
"That was great…" Sally said, glaring at more of the baddies in the sky. "…But there's still more of coming."
"Well here comes Mr. Shell-Mama!" Mighty shouted with joy as he reeled his arm to throw the spike-shell.
"NO! WAIT…!!" Mario screamed.
Too late. Mighty tossed the shell with all of his super strength, but instead of flying towards the baddies, it attracted to the road and skid through the road, which some of the racers barely drove away from, and rocketed towards the lead racer: Sonic.
"The spike-shell automatically goes for the lead racer, and you've just gave you friend more trouble!" Mario shouted at Mighty.
"Uh…opps!"
"SONIC!!" the hedgehog heard Sally and Amy cry. When he looked back to see what's wrong, he double taked when he saw a deadly spiked shell chasing straight at him. Surely he should take advantage of the speed and avoid the danger.
But danger is Sonic's middle name.
Sonic revved in a Spin Dash, waiting for the shell to come, then BAM!! He delivered a fierce axel kick, smacking the shell like a soccer ball to the fliers.
"Knuckles! Rouge! IN-COMING!!"
Rouge took notice of the spike shell soaring their way. "Heads up, ant-breath!" Rouge attacked the shell with a powerful soccer kick, deflecting it towards Knuckles.
But Knuckles took the name calling too seriously. "Ant-breath? Watch your mouth, Bat-Girl!" As if his fist had a mind of their own, Knuckles used them to smack the shell back towards Rouge, which they slammed through some baddies along the way.
"Jerk!" Rouge spat, kicking the shell and smashing more baddies.
"Thief!" Another serve from Knuckles, when he chased after the shell, busting more Buzz Bombers.
Rouge moved around, like she was playing soccer to kick the shell, but she was more in focus for fighting with Knuckles. "Country-bum!" another kick to the shell was made, punishing more baddies.
"City-Witch!"
"Baka!"
"Air-Head!"
"Banana-nose!"
"Big-chested slut!"
Ooo, that done it. Rouge was mad now. As the shell came back to her, Rouge span like a Sonic Spin, preparing to smack the shell with the force of god and hoping that Knuckles will eat this straight in his mouth.
"JACK-ASS!!!" BAM!! She slammed her foot right on the shell making it fly like a rocket to Knuckles.
That's all he could stand, and he can't stand no more. Growling with the rage of a pissed of lion, Knuckles glowed like fire, emitting the energies from his body. Soon, his fist burned with inferno energy.
"HOW DARE YOU?!!? MAXIMUM HEAT KNUCKLE!!" BAM!! Right after Knuckles gave the shell an earth shattering punch, thinking that was Rouge, the shell plowed back, coated in orange energy.
Rouge zipped away from the shell and watched it twirl in the air, out of control. The army of baddies that was heading for the drivers screamed for their lives as the shell shot towards them.
BOOM!! Soon, the racers gazed at a powerful explosion that blew near the baddies; releasing beautiful orange sparkles down at them.
"Wow…they did it!" cheered Amy.
Although Sally felt uneasy about their…effort. "Yeah…in their bizarre, twisted kind of way."
Mario cupped his hand over his eyes, gazing ahead towards the bridge ramp. "All right, there is the ramp! That yellow road will give us extra boost to make this jump over the river, so hang on!" I
____________________________
Chapter 12- Havoc in the Mushroom Kingdom
"GENO BEAM!!"
"THUNDER-BOLT!!"
Geno once again blast a group of Koopas, while Mallow summoned small lightning bolts at some more Koopas. Dust geysers roamed throughout the town, with roars of power. As the dust cleared, Koopas lied unconscious around the road with Geno and Mallow standing victorious.
"This is easy! We'll clean out these bums in no time!" Mallow said, dusting off his hands.
"I don't think it'll be easy for now, my Nimbus friend. Look!" Geno warned
The Egg Carrier dropped a horde of robots with long robotic legs and dome shaped heads, and armed with deadly guns in their arms. Geno and Mallow were now surrounded by a group of E-100 robots.
"By the Star Road, what are these monsters?" Geno asked.
"Robots, Duhh!" Mallow said "But I thought they exist in comics?"
Calmly, Geno closed his eyes. "It would appear that these are defiantly not Bowser's creations."
"Doesn't matter, cause' it's time to get cracking!"
"Right. STAR GUN!!" Geno yelled as he shot a wave of little stars at one of the robots, but all it did was giving them huge dents. "Not powerful enough. Very well, GENO BEAM!!" Geno fired his beam once again, and finished off the robot. "They seem to be stronger than the Koopas. Their armor is quite impervious"
"Jeez! How did Bowser get the money for this?" Mallow asked.
"We must halt this conversation. They are preparing their weapons." Geno said as the E-100 robots locked on to the duo.
"THUNDER-BOLT!!" Mallow shouted.
His attack easily destroyed the rest of the robots. As Mallow cheered, a huge robot that stood about Luigi's height appeared from the sky. It looks like a Coconuts [A/N: From Sonic the Hedgehog 2] but has Crawl's [A/N: Also from Sonic 2] armor and shield, and a arm gun, which looks like something from Mega Man, and his tail looks like Pikachu's.
"From the looks of this thing, he must be the strongest." Geno said. "We shall destroy this one, first! GENO BEAM!!" Geno shot his energy beam at the new badnik, but it blocked it with his shield, and absorbed the energy.
"Much thanks for your energy! Let me put your gift to good use!" the badnik said as he brought the energy to his blaster. "NEO BEAM!!" he shouted as he shot a huge blast.
Mallow and Geno jumped out of the way before the blast hit them. Mallow countered with a Shocker attack, but the robot stood his ground while raising his tail as the thunder blast struck him.
"ALL RIGHT!! I GOT HIM!!" Mallow shouted.
But as the smoke was clearing, the robot slowly walked out, unharmed, but was surging with pure electricity.
"NO WAY!!" Mallow yelled, not believing what he is seeing. "He's a regular lighting rod!"
"You got that right, cotton swab!" the robot said. "Now feel the pain of the one, Neo-Ape!" Neo-Ape's shield was surging with the electric energy that he absorbed. "GIGA WAVE!!" The shield released an electric shockwave that cover a wide range before him, and electrocuted the two heroes, unconscious.
"Pathetic fools!"
****************
Meanwhile at the castle, Peach and Toad watched the battle from the Peach's room with binoculars. Both sweated as they watched their only defense defeated and lay motionless on the ground.
"Aw crud! There go our two saviors!" Toad said. "Now what are we gonna do?"
"I just hope Mario shows up! We desperately need a miracle!" Peach said.
"But, princess, I hate to say this, but I don't think Mario can stand up to these new guys by himself!"
*************
Back at the half demolished town, the Koopas and Badniks, led by Neo-Ape and Kammy, gathered around near the exit out of Toad Town. The robots and monsters chatted while Neo-Ape stood in front of the group with his arms crossed and staring them, menacingly. Then one of those bot cameras from the SatAM series shows up and showed a hologram of Robotnik before Neo-Ape.
"Report?" Robotnik said.
"We are unable to locate the emerald in the area. I suspect that it is in the castle."
"Very well. Begin search in the castle and…..WHAT ARE YOU DOING YOU…ARGH!!" Robotnik yelled as Bowser grabbed him and threw him away.
"And while you're at it, Koopas, capture the princess as well! Over." Bowser said as the hologram faded.
"What? Again?" one of the Koopas said.
"I take it this isn't the first time he ordered for a kidnap, huh?" Neo-Ape asked Kammy.
"Believe me, you have no idea!" she sighed.
"SIR!! SIR!!" A Koopa Troopa cried as he ran to his commanders. "Mario has approached! And he is accompanied by those things from that other world!"
At that moment, a fireball hit and surprised the foes. As they looked up, they found Sonic and Mario standing on top of a house, staring at them.
"You throw a town party bash and forgot to invite us?" Sonic joked. "Shame, shame."
"And now we had to crash it!" Mario said as he threw another fireball, which Neo-Ape blocked it with his shield.
"DESTROY THEM!!" he shouted.
As the monsters and robots charged at them, Luigi, DK, Gombario, the Freedom Fighters and Chaotix came out of nowhere and attacked.
Mighty took out a heap of monsters and robots by using his super strength to create a earthquake that split the earth beneath them.
Charmy and Ray flew circles around a small group while Espio confused them by camouflaging in his surroundings, leaving DK to take them out with his super punch.
Sally easily took out a group with a fire flower she pick up earlier ago, while Amy used her hammer and smacked the Koopas like she was playing golf.
Vector headed for the fountain that was full of aquatic robots and monster and pumped the volume in his walk man to max and put the headphones in the water to let the powerful sound-wave blow the foes out of the water.
Luigi, Gombario, and Rouge faced against Kammy as she flew around on her broom.
"You dare face against me? You must be incredibly dense!" Kammy said.
"What are you gonna do? Throw a block at us?" Gombario asked.
"HA! Watch this! FIRE SPHERE!!" Kammy shouted as she shot a huge fire orb from her wand.
Luigi threw many fireballs to stop the big one, leaving it as a small fireball, but it did hit and burned Luigi.
"Nice work, Luigi!" Gombario said.
"OuCh!!@@#$^&" Luigi yelled in pain.
As Rouge jumped and flew toward the Kammy, the witch created two huge icicles with her magic then shouted: "ICE SHOT!!" The icicles flew toward Rouge like missiles, but Rouge dodged one, and jumped on the other to give her extra boost to let her fly over Kammy. While that was happening, Gombario was charging energy. As Rouge shouted: "HEEL DRILL" and dived straight at Kammy, Gombario jumped toward Kammy with blue energy coated around his body while shouting: "SUPER HEADBUTT!!" Kammy felt the full blow of both attacks. As Rouge and Gombario ended, they high fived each other (High footed for Gombario's case, since he doesn't have any hands.)
"Guys the Egg Carrier is heading to that castle!" Amy said as she pointed to it.
"Okay! Come on, guys! Let's move!" Mario said, but was stopped in his tracks by Neo-Ape.
"Well I'll be! A Coconuts- Crawl mixed robot!" Sonic said.
"Strange, it also has Pikachu's tail!" Mario said, remembering one of his opponents at the Super Smash Bros. tournament.
"Who?"
"Tell you later." Mario threw two fireballs, but Neo-Ape absorbed them with his shield.
"Behold my power, plumber! HELL FIRE!!" he shouted as he fired a fire beam of a shape of a dragon, which Sonic and Mario dodged.
"That shield of his looks like it can absorb energy." Mario said.
"No duh, Sherlock, but 'how to stop it' is what I'm asking." Sonic said.
As Sonic expected, Sally was already using her computer, Nicole, to download files from Robotnik's computer files to find out about the new robot. A hologram of Neo-Ape popped out like it was a Digimon Analyzer from Digimon season 3.
"His name is Neo-Ape. It's originally designed to stand up to that cloud boy electric summoning powers by using that tail like a rod to absorb his powers along with the shield, and use the power against his opponents. His shield can also absorb other kinds of energy, but it has its limits. His armor is also as tough as a tank."
"So busting him head on is out of the question?" Sonic asked as he dodged the incoming fire.
"Yes!"
"Well this pasta headed plumber has got a plan!" Mario said. "Luigi let's give him more power!"
The Mario Bros. charged fire from their hands as they shouted: "SUPER FLAME!!" As they fired bigger fireballs, Neo-Ape absorbed them all, which made his shield glow in an intense red glow. Although, they could throw more, but they were out of power.
"Opps! That's all folks!" Luigi said.
"Is that all you got? I'm disappointed!" Neo-Ape said. "Now you will see the true power of the Hell Fire!"
"We need a little bit more to overload him!" Sally said.
"Just wait a minute!" Amy said as she took out a few rings from her bag. "STORMING HEARTS!!" she shouted as the rings in her hands glowed. All of a sudden, a small pink tornado with energy shaped like hearts stormed on Neo-Ape's shield. As it did, the shield glowed so intense as the sun, it shook uncontrollably for Neo-Ape to handle. The energy flowed through his body, and destroyed everything it flowed through.
"TOO…MUCH…POWER!!! DAMN YOU PINK HEDGEHOG!!!!" he yelled before he went off line.
Amy danced around, while holding a yellow cape as she said: "See! I could do this!" But Sally stopped her by grabbing the cape.
"Where did you get this cape, and those rings?" she asked.
"I found them!" Amy said.
"But how could you find rings in this world…?"
She was interrupted when the robot exploded. The blast threw Sally up in the sky while she held the yellow cape.
"SALLY!!" Sonic cried.
But with luck, the cape wrapped its corners around her ankles, and had its other ends go into her hands. The cape spread like a parachute, and let her soar high into the sky.
"What the? A cape-a-chute? What a concept!" Sally said.
The Mobians watched her fly with the cape in awe, until Sonic cried: "AMY!! Where did you get that cape?"
"I found this feather in a block, and when I grabbed it, it turned into that cape!"
Mario took the time to recap some of his adventures. "Those are one of the power-ups that allow you to fly, just like the Wing Cap, and the Raccoon Tail."
"We better save her! From the looks of it, she can't steer that thing, and she's heading for the castle, the Egg Carrier too!" Knuckles said.
***************
As Sally flies uncontrollably to the castle, two dark, mysterious figures watch her from a distance in the woods, both with mystery and evil.
"This is the princess of Mobius?"
"Correct. And as order from the masters, they wish to see all the counterparts battle each other in a death combat."
"So we already had the heroes, the sidekicks, the guardians, and the villains pit the hell against each other. So who is next?"
"I say the princesses."
"Yes. Perhaps you should save her bacon from the Koopas. They already entered the castle, and you have the ability to play rescue."
"Very well."
***************
Inside the castle, Peach and Candy are surrounded by horde of Koopas and Badniks, led by four Koopas in mask called the Ninja Koopas [From Paper Mario], and three commander Badniks, Scratch, Grounder, and Coconuts [From AoStH].
"Okay, since when did Bowser decide to use robots?" Peach asked.
"…Since he partnered with our master, Dr. Robotnik!" Scratch said.
"Grab them!" Coconuts shouted.
Just when the group reacted, a voice shouted: "CHAOS CONTROL!!"
In blink of an eye, Peach disappeared in the green flash.
"Where did she go?" Candy asked.
************
Outside the front of the castle, Peach appeared. She looked around her surroundings, surprised she was outside after being surrounded by monsters and robots.
"Huh? How did I get here?" she asked herself.
At that moment, she heard someone screaming. She looked up to find the screamer diving to the ground with a cape. The person was none other than Sally Acorn.
"Ouch! Gotta work on that landing, girl." She said.
"Ah, what perfect timing! She has arrived with pinko!"
"I already did my job. It's your turn now."
As Peach moved to Sally's aid, a black orb flew from no where, and struck Sally.
"Where did that come from?" she asked as she stood in front of Sally. "Are you all right?"
At first, Sally's head hung, but then as she faced Peach, her eyes gave a horrifying look, with red glowing eyes, that surprised Peach. She then slapped her on the face.
"Why did you do that?" Peach shouted as she rubbed her cheek.
"……..Must…KILL!!" Sally said in a dreaded voice.
"Excellent work, my friend."
"Could you expect less from the great Wario?"
"Not likely, considering you are with the ultimate life form, Shadow the Hedgehog!"
End of part 4……
Max: Whoa, Shadow and Wario working with a mysterious force? And now the two princesses are gonna tear each other up? Why is Shadow joined with the dark side, again? Will Sally and Peach live through this? Don't miss the cat fight on the next chapter on Sonic & Mario!
Me: Now its time to thank all of Chapter 3 reviews:
L.M.C., the matrix, One Winged Kuja- thanks for the reviews. I'll defiantly try to make this story interesting all out.
Anthony Bault- Thanks, once again, Gamemaster! Oh, as you already heard, Max already got the picture. Too bad it's in my possession.
Max: That's right! GIVE IT BACK!
Me: Finders Keepers, Losers Weepers!
Max: Do you know how hard it is to get through the Nexus Tower area just to get that photo in Bault's world?
Me: Oh, look! Ann here!
Max: I'm not gonna fall for that, again!
(Ann enters)
Ann: Hi guys! Max said he had a …..!
Max: Yello, gorgeous! You want to go to the movies with yours truly?
(Ann performs that shoulder press to put him to sleep)
Me: Thanks!
Ann: Don't mention it!
Me: Oh let me shed some light about Sally for a review that asked who she is:
Princess Sally Acorn is a character in the Sonic Archie comics, and the infamous Sonic cartoon that appeared in ABC. She never appeared in any Sonic game, except in Sonic Spinball as a character to rescue in the bonus stage. She is the princess of Mobotropolis, Sonic's childhood friend, and sort of his girlfriend. When Robotnik took over her kingdom and banished her father to the Void, Sally formed and led the freedom fighters to rebel against Robotnik for freedom. She has a hand-held computer named Nicole, that is far advanced then any other computer.
In my version, Sally is a princess of Knothole Island. She was sick of the royal life and urged for adventure. She ran away and fled to Station Square to live with her old friend, Bunnie Rabbot. Her story is explained more in my Sonic Adventure 1 story. She act a little like Sonic more then the real one, but she still acts like she does in the comic and cartoon.
And also, Neo-Ape is owned by me. Well that's all folks, and remember: Go easy on the flames!
