Luigi and Yoshi burst into the room where Bowser and Mario were sparring. The room looked like a giant cave with the bottom covered by a pool of lava. There was a rock bridge that led to the giant battle arena that Mario and Bowser were sparring on. Luigi looked up to see Peach dangling from the ceiling, a chain wrapped around her chest, her arms were at her side. Her mouth was once again tapped shut so she couldn't scream.
"Well if it isn't Yoshi and Luigi." Mario said, noticing that they were in the room.
Yoshi and Luigi made their way down the rock bridge to the battlefield. As soon as they stepped onto the arena the bridge collapsed behind them. Bowser and Mario were on the side of the arena opposite Luigi and Yoshi.
"How did you fools make it all the way here?" Bowser asked.
"It's not like your castle is heavily guarded, we just walked around until we found you." Luigi answered. He was mad at Bowser for what he did to Mario and intended to make him pay.
"Just turn Mario back to normal so we can go home." Yoshi said.
"Never, he's my second in command." Bowser said, he wasn't about to make one of the only people who could kill good again.
"I have an idea." Mario said.
"What's that?" Luigi asked.
"We'll have a little tournament, Me vs. Luigi and Bowser vs. Yoshi. The winners of those two fights will fight each other. If Luigi or Yoshi win, I'll turn good again. If Bowser or me win, I stay bad and you two and the princess die." Mario explained, he began to smirk a little.
"Well what if you and Bowser or me and Yoshi make it to the finals?" Luigi asked, not thinking that Mario would have an answer.
"Then that team will automatically win." Mario explained.
"Ok, let's just get this over with Mario." Bowser said, not liking the idea.
Suddenly a new platform rose out of the lava behind the arena, on the other side of the room away from the door. A new bridge also rose from the lava to the platform to arena. Mario pulled out a controller and pushed a button on it, which dropped Peach into his arms and he put her down.
"Now if Yoshi, Bowser and the princess would be so kind as to step onto the new platform." Mario commanded. Bowser picked up the princess, who was still chained up, and he and Yoshi walked to the new platform.
"Well Luigi, this is going to be a special fight." Mario said, still smirking.
"How do you figure?" Luigi asked, knowing Mario was up to something.
"Since we are the best handlers of hammers in the entire kingdom, I thought we would fight with hammers too." Mario said. He pressed another button on the controller and two hammers fell from the ceiling into each of their hands.
"Ok, I guess that's fair." Luigi said, swinging the hammer around to get the feel of it.
"Well now it's time to fight." Mario said, raising the hammer above his head.
"One second." Luigi said.
"What?" Mario said irritated. He lowered his hammer again.
"How do you win a fight?"
"You either say you give up or are knocked out."
"Well how do I know you won't knock me into the lava?"
"Like this." Mario replied. He pushed yet another button on the controller that made bars come up on the sides of the arena so no one could fall out.
"Ok, now lets start the fight." Luigi said, preparing himself.
"About time." Mario said, once again raising his hammer.
"GO!" They both yelled at the same time and began to run at each other.
Mario hit Luigi in the side with his hammer and knocked him to the ground. Luigi jumped up quickly and struck Mario in the exact same place, but Mario didn't fall. Mario smacked Luigi in the head, which knocked him into the bars on the outside of the arena. On the sidelines, Peach closed her eyes. Bowser began to laugh as Mario threw Luigi into the middle of the arena.
"Come on Luigi!" Yoshi yelled.
"Don't waste your breath Yoshi, Mario was supped up by that mushroom I gave him." Bowser said, still laughing.
Mario approached Luigi while he was on the ground and lifted the hammer above his head. He swung the hammer at Luigi, buy Luigi blocked it with his own hammer. Luigi then tripped Mario, which made him drop his hammer. Luigi ran over and grabbed Mario's hammer before Mario could crawl over and get it himself.
"Now who's got both the hammers?" Luigi asked braggingly.
"I may be down, but I'm not out." Mario said, getting back on his feet.
"Well it sure does look that way." Luigi said smiling.
"I guess I'll have to prove it then." Mario said, begging to smirk again.
Mario ran at Luigi and tackled him, knocking both hammers out of his hands. Luigi was able to grab his but couldn't get Mario's before he did. Mario began to hit Luigi in the back constantly with his hammer. He was about to get him again when Luigi grabbed the handle of Mario's hammer. Mario began to shake the hammer violently until Luigi's hand was shaken lose from the hammer.
Luigi smacked Mario in the knee with his hammer, knocking him down again. As he fell he hit Luigi in the stomach with his hammer as hard as he could. Luigi began to cough uncontrollably, giving Mario the opportunity to get up again. Luigi stopped coughing and also got back on his feet.
"You've fought well so far Luigi." Mario complimented, catching his breath.
"You too bro." Luigi replied.
"Well it seems that this is going to be the home stretch of the fight, so may the best man win." Mario said.
"Looks like you're begging to show your true colors Mario." Luigi said smiling.
"Shut up and let's just finish this." Mario said.
"Let's finish this without the hammers Mario." Luigi said, dropping his hammer.
"I don't see why not." Mario replied. He too dropped his hammer.
"Now let's finish this." Luigi said.
"Ok, let's go." Mario answered.
The two of them prepared themselves and raised their fists. They both knew the end of the fight was near but neither knew who would win…
"This is getting exiting." Bowser said. He somehow produced a bag of popcorn while the brothers were fighting.
"Where'd you get that?" Yoshi asked.
"I ain't telling." Bowser answered.
Meanwhile…
"You ready Mario?" Luigi asked.
"Ready as I'll ever be." Mario said.
And the end of the ultimate battle began…
