A Dark Warrior
Chapter 4: A Dark Motive
He stared at her picture longingly. Even though it was just a portrait, Princess Peach still appeared to be looking down at him. Her appearance was beautiful, her heart was pure, she was a perfect example of an angel. Bowser sighed, however, no matter what; to her he would always be Bowser, the King of all Koopas, and the scourge of the Mushroom Kingdom.
He let out another sigh. Didn't she understand that he would give up everything just to be by her side? He would give up all he had just to have her. However then there was Mario… His fist tightened at the mere thought of him. It wasn't fair, both he and the princess were of noble blood; he was just a plumber. Bowser and Peach were meant to be together, even if she didn't see it yet.
The door behind him slowly opened. Bowser quickly whispered the word, "Diablo," and the picture changed from the beautiful portrait of Peach into the snarling appearance of Morton Koopa Sr., the last King of all Koopas. He turned around to see what fool dared disturb him. "Kammy, what's the big idea? How dare you enter my chambers without notifying me!"
Kammy let out a sigh. She saw no point in leaving him alone since all he would do is admire Princess Peach's picture all day. Indeed, all citizens of the Dark World knew of Bowser's obsession with the princess of the Mushroom Kingdom. Many soldiers of the Koopa Troop were cracking jokes about it. However, Kammy found it anything but funny. Already, soldiers were beginning to lose faith in their leader, and such thoughts could lead to rebellion. Kammy had been serving the Royal Family for to long to see it fall.
"My up most apologies your evilness. But this message is very important. Our spies in the Mushroom Kingdom have important news. It concerns Mario-."
Bowser looked at Kammy, irritated. "Just what have I told you Kammy. I don't care about Mario. His business is his business."
"But sire, this is important. The Toad Town Mailkoopa, Parakarry, was flying to Mario's house when he saw a nearby tree had fallen. So he went to investigate and lying right underneath it was Mario himself."
Bowser looked at Kammy with an odd expression on his face. "Is he… dead?"
"No your rottenness, he is alive but his spinal cord has snapped so he is currently paralyzed. Toad Town doctors are currently treating him."
"Why did you give me this message? If he is alive why should I care?" Bowser asked.
Kammy looked up at Bowser with a devilish grin. "Because your Excellency, the fool's brother Luigi is on a trip to Sarasland. With Mario paralyzed and Luigi gone the Mushroom Kingdom will be easy to conquer."
Bowser looked at her and soon the same grin crossed his face. "Finally! Some good is happening to me. With the Mario Bros gone, the Mushroom Kingdom will be mine to control." An even wider grin crossed his face. "But first, let's have a trip to the Toad Town hospital. I have an appointment there."
