Darkness-Aura:
Well this certainly not only surprises me, but it also might surprise some of you. I have not written anything for almost a year now, being famous for my incredibly random humor and the way I like to bend characters into goofy little doofuses because I like to play with them like that. Well, I'm back, and from a year's time, (or less) I am inspired to write about Paper Mario! Except this won't be a rushed story, so I will be grabbing many of you in order to keep fans, isn't the way all stories should be written? Till you grab the audience by the necks….perfect really. Anyway….this story will consist of Paper Mario 2 characters, including some baddies. I believe the way the developers transformed things for Paper Mario 2, truly robust the Mario world.
The story begins with our favorite Shadow Siren, and as most of you already know her name is Vivian, a Siren who is in Love with Mario. If any of you realize this or not….I played the game, and as she had stated in the end (Spoilers, so skip this paragraph if you didn't beat the GAME!), she was about to tell Mario she loved him, but decided not to because she believed Mario loves Peach….well…that might be true, might not. As anyone would know, Mario is a Plumber, Peach, a princess….if Mario is not royalty; then the chances are slim, even though there are stories of royalty marrying commoners or heroes. As you might have also guessed Goombella also suggested that she has feelings for Mario, but because of the thoughts on Peach, she also drew back from telling Mario she loves him.
The story basically features how Vivian, Goombella, Peach, and maybe Flurrie, fight over the famed little plumber, of course, this story will not be a random deviation of humor, it will have a plot. Humor however, will try to be at its best anyway.
Sorry for such a long introduction, if any of you decide to read any of that, which I do recommend to know my story more, except the spoiler, I guess I will just start the story now, eh? Enjoy!
Chapter One: Of Love and chases to the End.
The creepy town of Twilight Town simply is a wonderful place for the shadow sirens, Vivian being one of them should know this just as much as her sisters have. Even though memories of the past still ran through her mind, especially visions of the Plumber, Mario, the sights of this pleasantly creepy town still wouldn't be dulled to her.
The moon, how it sank somehow never moving in the sky, never leaving, constantly watching over the souls that seem to be tortured by depression from time to time, it beautifully watched over them and the town as if it were the intentional guardian of this particular scrape of land, even though it could be seen everywhere else at night.
Vivian was perched atop the tree where the crows usually liked to speak to each other. She found from eavesdropping on them once that the birds are actually very intelligent, and seem to be living secret lives apart from the human and magical world; they seem to be somewhat of technological experts. She thought so because she heard a bird squawking about his hard drive trying to steal his soul yesterday, because he had made a bet with it and lost.
Vivian didn't quite understand how this was possible, but from what she heard about the super computer TEC, this was probably true. Sighing as the wind blew through her hair, she tipped her hat ever so slightly, in order to protect her face from the cold world. The reason shadow Sirens cover their faces is because the eyes of a Siren could enchant a man into a sub-consciously mad driven love toward the Siren, this wouldn't be true love of course….just control. Vivian, fortunately, had gotten such a curse ridden from her, once the Shadow Queen was killed, this time for good.
"Maybe this time, hopefully I can win Mario's heart…. Maybe this time I won't have to hide my face." Completing the sentence to herself, she slowly removed her hat, revealing large innocent eyes, colored with hues of red and purple for her Iris, and a shine within them that could make even the strongest man coo with a "Oh, she is so very cute!" comment. "Too bad, my hair is kind of disobedient…" She mumbled to herself remembering how sometimes she could get a serious case of hat hair.
"Oh well, I think I will be visiting Mario this time….instead of he visiting me…maybe I will be lucky enough to be together with him someday." With such a remark, Vivian sunk into the trees trunk, disappearing from her perch, and then soon reappearing in the home of the Sirens.
The home was as any other home anyone could have, a few windows with drapery of purple and black covered the windows, a TV sat in one of the corners, should it rain one day and have the Sirens stuck inside, and furniture like chairs, a couch and some other little necessities, even a kitchen. So typically, it was a normal house, with a touch of Siren Ambience.
Beldam her older and more elderly sister looked up from her paper and smiled from the couch, this time with a surprisingly warm greeting, other times, it would be just a smile.
"Ah, Hello Vivian! How are you? Can I do anything for you?" Beldam asked, putting down the paper on the coffee table in front of her.
Shaking her head, Vivian smiled back to her sister, "No Beldam, not right now, thanks for asking." Looking around, Vivian notices that her Sister Marilyn isn't around. She decides to ask Beldam about where she might be. "Where is Marilyn, Beldam?"
"Oh….hmmm…I think she is out on a date with some man from Twilight town….she didn't exactly speak English, but from the handsome young man I seen her leave with, I suppose it was probably what she was trying to tell me she was doing." Beldam answered.
"Oh, well I suppose that's good…" Vivian frowned, she began wondering what she might be doing wrong, She takes far longer to muster the strength to talk to a man, especially Mario, but now she finds that her sister has already a boyfriend she's never heard about, not that she could though anyway, Marilyn was born with a mental disability, thus keeping her from speaking to them properly or in an understandable fashion, but that didn't stop her from exercising and becoming beautiful for herself. Vivian didn't know what inspired her to become that healthy, she was almost in better shape than she was, but then again, Vivian only gotten that way from travels with Mario.
Marilyn looked the same as always, except this time, her hair was much more healthy looking, and her body was no longer so…round, more like toned now. Vivian guessed that was alright, after all, it was really not big problem. It was her life after all.
Beldam looked up from the paper again, deciding it wasn't good to read in dim light, she could see Vivian's distress as she sat on the chair. Before, Beldam couldn't have cared any less, but that was only because she was so focused on reviving the Evil Shadow queen, she lost her mind…and she now regretted her past ways with every fiber of her being, but even so, Beldam decided she should change her ways, to better herself, because now that the one thing that made her lose her sane mind is gone, she could now make up for her cruelty in the past, and repent for the things she has done to others and herself. She was the cause of Vivian's problems, even her Inferiority Complex, but now it was up to her to nurture her sisters and make things right again, now was the time and has always been since that day, to change. Before she would have to leave this world again someday, and not get the chance to be different.
Canceling her long thought train, Beldam spoke up, grabbing the startled attention of Vivian. "Vivian, is there something bothering you?"
Looking up, Vivian answered shyly. "Um….well, I'm not so sure it's really that important." Vivian squirmed, trying not to lie.
"Please don't hide, you're not inferior to me Vivian, the things that matter to you matter to me just as much now, you can tell me."
"Well…alright…" Biting on her gloved hands, Vivian sighed and began to tell Beldam about her problems with her love for Mario and how she need's help getting him to notice her in a different kind of way.

We now Join Goombella as she continues her research, and her life of archaeology. Rougeport being a very nice town after recent events, it was plain to see, of know that with the new atmosphere she was living with, she was indeed very happy with herself and her life. Although she was still missing the man she thought she couldn't have. The man that saved the world from utter destruction, the one man, with their help, who succeeded in destroying the world's greatest evil; a man called Mario. She still could feel happy, knowing that she could still have a chance with him soon enough.
Goombella knew that Peach had liked Mario, but from what she has analyzed, thanks to her now father trained archaic mind, Peach was making absolutely no advances to Mario, and vise versa. Unless you consider her making him do so many things for her as a move, which is highly unconceivable. Besides all this, it only meant inconclusively that she could have a chance with the plumber. Knowing this from her deductions, she knew that there was truly only one thing she would have to do. Get Mario!
Jumping on the only limbs she had, thus shaking the little house Professor Frankly had, she shouted for joy, completely forgetting the fact that Professor, Frankly had just told her he was messing with a highly explosive chemical, and if any kind of loud noise or sudden movements of a large caliber, could set it off in a large explosion of annoying gooey badness.
"No Goombella! No!" Frankly began shouting as the chemical bubbled, and then exploded in a mass amount of purple fizz.
"Ah! My legs! I cannot feel them anymore!" Goombella screamed as the fizz filled the entire house, creating a large commotion outside as the windows had fizz oozing out from the cracks.
"Oh my lord, someone probably died in there!" Shouts someone from outside,
"Quickly, to the Fire Department!" Shouting another voice,
"Is it Edible?" Asked another,
"Don't touch it you fool! 'Twillt steal thy souulllsss!" Shouted a dark sounding voice,
"You don't have legs!" Frankly, shouted annoyed under the fizz,
"Oh! Silly me!" Goombella replied.
Pulling out a cell phone from his pocket Professor Frankly began calling his chiropractor. Hoping that he might help him feel better after all the work he would have to put into cleaning up this mess.
"Goombella, we will have to spend the next week or so cleaning this place up, so the things I want you to do first is get me out of here, then we can….Goombella? Are you there?" At this question, the door was heard being closed as though someone was leaving, and then silence.
"Ah, come on man! I have to clean this mess up by myself again?"
"At least tell me how you got out man!" Prof. Frankly pleaded once more.
………………………………………………………………………………………….
Princess Peach had always wondered whether Mario truly loved her or not. She thought he did, but it would seem that she has been the one that was making any movements towards him at all, being a hero and all, Peach guessed Mario wasn't taught how to get a 'clue' and thus, making it hard to know whether he liked her back or not.
Sighing as she gazed over the meadows of Mushroom Kingdom, she wondered if she would ever get the innocent, but strong Mario as her partner one day, together they could rule over the kingdom! ….Or maybe Mario doesn't want that. Maybe he wants to live a normal life….a life without any of those troubles that she is always handing to him forcefully.
Thinking about this topic more, she realizes that maybe she is being selfish….after all, has she ever tried to care for Mario's feelings? Maybe not hers feelings instead, for once? Maybe this was a mistake she should have corrected a long, long time ago. Gazing father into the grass as the sun shone brightly and brilliantly in the sky, Peach decided that maybe it was time to stop being so selfish, maybe it was time to stop making him do things for her and giving him things she thinks might compensate, maybe it was time to grow up…after all, a life in ignorance may hurt those who care for you…Mario being the example of her selfish ignorance's.
"Peach, are thou ok?" Asked a soldier that has been watching over Peach, it was her trusted friend, Benedict, and he has always been the number one soldier, who actually decided to act like a person, a strong one at that, and not some robotic soldier following orders.
"I'm alright Benedict; I'm just thinking about some subjects that I think needed a few reality checks."
"Ah, care to confide Peach? As a Goomba, 'tis my duty to serve you!" Benedict replied saluting with all five fingers.
"Nah, I think I resolved some things for now, but I would like to visit Mario again…can we go by tomorrow?"
"Sure Milady, I'll get the preparations set immediately!" With the last comment, the trusted friend left Peach once again, to herself.
"Mmm…maybe this time…I can finally tell Mario I love him so." With another sigh, Peach rested her head on the railings and closed her eyes, so she could day dream for awhile about her life with Mario, and how great it would be, hoping Mario shared her feelings.

Flurrie wasn't going to stop at any cost what so ever, as every actress should know, she needs to have as much health are her finger tips as she can, in order to be the best she can be. Exercising and dieting is exactly what she needs right now. She began to notice just how nice her body has been getting, so instead of a chubby fat cloud, she was now a delicate and pretty flower. Maybe now she could grab that delectable morsel of a man Mario!
"Oh yes, now that I have finally gotten up off my lazy tush and exercised, I believe I will have an even better life! No more getting tired after walking for only three minutes!" Flurrie exclaimed happily. Whistling, she walked over to a nearby mirror and smiled at the cloud that stared back at her. Her house was full of mirrors, so her reflection was no big deal to her, but now, she didn't break some of them for some unexpected reason, it's a good thing a reality check hit her later after the last of her mirrors broke, obviously, the mirrors were dieing from the intensity of her obesity! Such rudeness…
She now had long flowing hair, a normal small soft face, with large blue and azul colored eyes, along with a strong toned body, that she had worked for about 4 months, although she still couldn't understand why she didn't get this way from her travels, but she guessed it really didn't matter, now that she stopped eating so much, her fans loved her even more, and she was sure Mario would like her too.
"Well, that doesn't look too good…." Flurrie commented looking at all the make-up on her face. "This make up is actually messing things up!" with this new fact in place, she flew over to the sink, and washed her face from the mascara and lipstick. Then one more time, looked in the Mirror.
"Well, that certainly looks better! Natural beauty is the best beauty I guess!" With a wink, she flew over to the phone on the wall of her kitchen, and began to dial some numbers; she decided it was time to visit Mario, instead of Mario visiting her, she guessed she would surprise him now with her new look, and not later.
"Hello? Manager?" Flurrie asked into the phone, having pressed the direct dial number to his office.
"Yes?" answered her manager's voice.
"I am going to take my vacation now…is this alright?"
"Sure! I wasn't planning anything important anyway! Just be sure to stay in good health, alright?"
"Sure Joe, I will! See you in a month!"
"I'm sure I will, see ya later then!"
"Yep!" hanging up the phone, Flurrie left the kitchen, and began preparing for her visit to Mario, but unbeknownst to her, she was going to have some serious competition.
Vivian, having heard some Advice from Beldam recently, is now even more determined to have Mario's heart than ever, and she won't be easily stepped over if she is pushed a little.
Goombella, with science within her mind and a fresh new goal in her heart, being Mario's heart of course, will also be very hard to keep away as well, because she can be very cunning when pushed.
Princess Peach has known Mario for years, and even now, if she reaches him enough, she may just succeed with the knowledge she has gained from him, with her happy go lucky attitude along with some stubbornness, she won't be easily pushed over either.
The four of them are going to meet at his house tomorrow, and what will happen when they all find out the others motives? How will they act? Will they fight fair? Dirty? Who knows? You'll have to find out in Chapter two! The Fight for the Hero Begins!
Review please!
Chapter End.
