I am the Sergeant, and I am extremely angry and confused.
I'm walking several steps away from the pack, and everyone's doing their best to stay on my thinning good side. The Lucky Star. The last time I saw it, Mario had defeated Bowser with a monstrous power I had never seen before. The only way that old man could have gotten hold of it is if Mario had come to him personally. That… meant that Mario already foresaw this operation before we even set foot on ground. He couldn't invade the castle just yet, I not yet ready to face him till the operation is complete. I look at the medallion in my hand, and ball it up in my fist to the point where you could hear stress cracks in it, then shoved it into my pocket to see if it would be of any use later.
While one of my men gets the boat ready, I look over toward the castle. That's when I noticed a flag in front of the entrance. The Mushroom Kingdom flag. I am having an extremely bad day, so I wait to control myself before announcing, "Troops! Get onboard as quickly as you can! Mario is at the base!" The men, within seconds, go absolutely insane and push and shove off each other for their salvation. Suddenly, a bang goes off and I hear screams of agony behind me. I look up and see the cause of their agony. Somehow, someway, Mario had gotten hold of Bullet Bill missiles!
It takes us seven minutes to hit shore, and I run to the battle like one freshly reawakened from the dead. I get into the main square, and come across an impressive scene. Mario awaits me, strapped with a strong mallet and standing on the scorched remains of the hanging area in front of the castle entrance, thankfully, still securely closed. With him stands Princess Peach, and she still withholds her radiance, even though she's showing signs of her impregnation 7 months ago. Her stomach was hatching the young new prince to arrive in their family as she stood there.
Mario approaches me before anyone else. Before attacking me, he has one of his comrades, a female Goomba, spurt out "Name: Sergeant. HP: 60. Weaknesses--". I cut her off before she finishes-literally. I'm not about to let her read me like a book. Mario jumps at me, with his hammer ready to fire. But before he plunges, I grab his hammer in midstrike and stop it, then kick him clear in the stomach, kicking him off the hammer and striking him into the water.
I use the hammer to knock on the entryway and yell "Kammy! Open the gate! While we still have time!" The gate slides down and all the troops enter the castle swiftly. But before I go in, I look at Peach… and then I get a terrible idea. Yes, I know she's pregnant, but it's not like Boswer's ever raised a cruel hand to her anyway. I shut the door quickly enough to save the castle from further endangerment and we're ready for takeoff.
