"W-Where am I?" Wario looked about. "Ah! He's finally awake!" a tall woman said. "I am Captain Sugar of the Brown Sugar Pirates!" she said triumphantly. "What's going on?" Wario asked. "Why my crew rescued you! I saw you about the water, only someone amazing could have survived that storm..." she picked him up. "I see you've met my daughter Syrup." "Is he the one momma?" Syrup asked. Sugar nodded. Still confused, Wario struggled free from Sugar's arms. He ran scared, with thoughts of the villagers in his mind. He then stopped realizing where he was. He was on deck aboard a great ship sailing the seas. Wario sat down where he was. "I sense terror, in you and I see hate in your eyes." Sugar approached him. "The storm wasn't the worst part of your venture here, was it?"
Inside the cabins of the ship, a duck gossips with a spear guy. "So she thinks he's the one!" the duck quacked. "Aye, I can't blame 'er. After all, 'e was found the night of that storm. Iz just 'ike ole Brown told 'er." the spear guy responded. "I was skeptical at first, but it was the very same storm that appeared that night when... you know..." "Boy of the Sea..." the duck interupted. "Aye" the spear guy nodded.
"That's what happened..." Wario explained to Sugar. He was inside the captain quarters, filled with old maps and books wrinkled from being wet. Wario told his story and waited nervously for an answer. "Wario, whatever you did doesn't matter here. That Mario you spoke of is a fool! Trust me, it was all his fault." she told him. "I realize how much you envy his life... I know you desire more than what you have. I can give that to you Wario. You're Mario's shadow now, but when I'm through with you, Mario will be in your shadow." she looked expectingly. "Yes... Yesss... Yes! Mario will be the nobody! I'll show him, I'll be better at whatever he does!" Wario snickered. Sugar smiled an evil grin... "Soon I will be with you again my love... soon..."
The ship rejoiced when they heard that Wario excepted to be in the crew. Wario was a bit curious as to why everyone was so happy to see him, but his anger towards Mario kept him from any suspicion on the true meaning of his presence.
"To become greater than one, you must have more power than one." Sugar lectured Wario. "How do I obtain this power, Master Sugar?" Wario asked anxiously. "Money, Wario! Money!" she pulled out a gold coin and waved it in front of Wario. "Gold, diamonds, pearls, the works! With these, all the power can be yours!" she said Wario was dazzled by the coin she held. The shimmer, the color, everything about it Wario liked. "How much? How much do I need?" he asked. "Hm-hm... Wario, there's never enough... only MORE!" she laughed. Wario looked deeply into her eyes. "Your, pirates... you steal power. Doesn't that mean some people lose power." Wario asked. She smiled. "Those with too much power don't know what to do with it. Unlike us Wario. We know exactly how to use this." she replied. "What will you do with your money?" Wario Played with his fingers. She grew silent. A frown rose to her face. "My... My captain. He had a dream. Can you imagine a world without suffering? A world where everyone is equal?" she circled around Wario. "He was so close to achieving this..." she paused. "Enough about that. Come, there is much to learn." she said Wario looked puzzled. He thought about that dream she spoke of. But he wondered why she wished for him to achieve more power, when she wished for a world with equality.
Wario spent his years on the Brown Sugar. Attacking cities, and stealing everything. Wario watched and learned to be a great thief. And as Wario grew up he became more determined, and the daughter Syrup grew closer to Wario. Syrup was quite impressed with Wario's strength. Often saving her from various things. And Cpt. Sugar grew worried about her daughter.
One night Wario was looking at the stars on deck. "Oh, great and powerful stars... Who am I?" he prayed to them. Just then he heard Syrup crying in her room. "What's the matter Syrup? Too ugly you made yourself cry?" he joked. Syrup looked at Wario. "Go away... my mamma doesn't want me to be near you..." she sobbed. "What kind of coo-coo crazy thing are you talking about?" Wario snorted. "She said that I shouldn't grow too attached to you... It would be too hurtful when the time comes..." she whimpered. "When the time comes?" Wario repeated. "What the heck does that mean?" he mumbled. He push everyone aside as he marched to the Cpt. Room. "Hey, lady!" he yelled in disgust. "What's dis about you no want'n your daughter hanging around me, eh?" Wario jumped on her desk. "You no like'n me anymore?" he snorted. 'Wario, I'd be very happy if you'd get off MY DESK!" Sugar raged. "Heh. And I'd be very happy if you didn't yell at my glory!" he taunted. A duck entered the room, a newcomer nicknamed Dangerous. He waddled quickly over. "Captain, please. Let me settle this with a fine Shroom Steak. How'bout it Wario?" the duck politely said "Consider yourself lucky!" Wario growled. As he followed Dangerous out of the room. "Grr.. Easy now. It's almost time." Sugar whispered.
Wario was much different now. Being spoiled by the pirates, always called special, and learning manners from thieves didn't help. He was free to do whatever he felt and fattened up with stolen delicacies. He could insult anyone without them getting mad, everyone complimented him on everything he did. Wario learned not to question these things and thought they were all true to him. But Wario was unaware that Cpt. Sugar had given direct orders to the crew to be kind to him. Even so, the crew was growing impatient with Wario, and plots to rid of him began to develop.
"Shroom Steak eh?" Wario yawned, completely forgetting his previous conversation. "Well this time it better not be lousy, like your FACE! Wahaha!" he laughed. Dangerous guided Wario to an under storage on the ship. "Hey beak for brains! What is this! You bringing me here, and not to my steak?" he questioned. "Wario! Enough is enough!" a Spearguy said from behind. "We're tired of taking orders from you!" he snapped. "Well I'm tired of taking ODORS from you!" Wario snapped back. Many angry crewmates appeared from the shadows. Wario looked around and laughed. "What's so funny?" Dangerous shouted. "Heeheeheheh! So... You think you can take the great Wario, eh?" Wario chuckled. "Quit your laughing!" said another Spearguy, pulling out a sword. "Your ego is great, but it won't save you!" Hoards of angry pirates charged at Wario with knives and daggers. Jumping on top of him, covering his body in a great pile. Just then, the pile exploded as Wario punched his way out. The pirates went flying as Wario smacked them. Dangerous tried to sneak up from behind, but Wario grabbed him and swung him over his shoulder, causing him to thrust like a missal towards the head Spearguy. The two collided together, busting various crates. Wario pounded the inside walls of the ship, making it spin around on the water. The crew flew around the interiors and flew out of the hull onto the main deck. Cpt. Sugar saw the pile of unconscious men before her. "Well men... What have we learned?" she smiled.
