Well, Bowser has lost it. Giga Bowser is the ultimate incarnate now. Will Toadstool defeat this creature, or will another famous Mario character be born in his death?

G.I.R.'s shadow: You know what? That actually sounds like a good idea! I'll give it a try!

Sailor Taichichi Vegeta: Well, at least that's what I hear in forums and stuff. For all I know,Bowser and giga Bowsercould be the same. I mean, that just makes more sense.

Well, here we go...

It was as if he lost complete control. He was locked away in the back of the small, yet power-driven mind of Giga Bowser. Toadstool starred in complete horror as the beast continued walking, ever so slowly, toward him.

Giga Bowser: It was an abomination of power and strength. It was a source so unbelievably mighty that even the Lord God himself would think twice about challenging it. It was a god in itself: a dark lord of might, power, and evilness.

And Toadstool was in its way.

The King wasn't going to go down without a fight, but there was no more competition between them than between men and ants. So, though he punched and kicked, Giga didn't feel a thing. He swiped his enormous claws at Toadstool, who evaded them miraculously. He gave a slight grin. This beast was powerful, but he was faster.

He jumped up fast, sprinted across the crumbling roof, and slammed himself up against the door. Locked. How could it be locked!

He spun around to see Giga Bowser approaching. The monster opened its enormous mouth and spewed out fire, blue and purple in hue. The flames could be felt from miles around as the roof caught on fire. Screaming in terror, Toadstool struggled to open the door, though his efforts were in vain.

Finally, the roof caved in, forcing the two fighters to collapse into the main lobby of the castle. Wood and concrete itself burned with the intensity of a sun. Toadstool slowly got up and staggered against a wall. To his complete dismay, he saw Giga Bowser, rising up from the rubble, like Satan rising from the gates of Hell. This picture made Toadstool stare, simple in fear, and not move.

Giga Bowser approached him, grinning wildly, evilly, as he readied his huge and incredibly sharp claws. The small, defenseless Human finally snapped out of his panic and ran as fast as his legs could possibly carry him to a door. A wooden door, not painted, that had a secret being held behind it.

'The only possible thing that can defeat this thing.' Toadstool thought.

Giga Bowser began to laugh insanely as he saw the King go into the room. It had him trapped now. There was no escape for him now. He burst down the wall as if it were made of tissue and darted its eyes around, searching for its meal.

"I'm right here, you monstrosity!" Toadstool cried as he jumped out from behind some rubble, his greatest weapon firmly in hand. The beast stopped, widened its eyes, and screeched out in fear and pain.

Toadstool held a Star.

Giga didn't think. It couldn't think. It had one purpose: to kill. But how could it kill with a weapon more powerful than it is before itself. It didn't know the word 'sacrifice.' It didn't know the word 'suicide'. It knew no words actually. It only knew its purpose.

So Giga Bowser ran strait for the King. Within a matter of seconds, though, it was on the ground, twitching and churning in pain. The King slowly began to regain his confidence, until he was standing on top of the creature, laughing hysterically.

"Do you see?" he shouted. "DO YOU SEE! You cannot defeat me, no matter how much you try! You know why?"

Giga Bowser continued screeching.

"It is because YOU ARE A KOOPA!" he cried out, triumphantly grasping the Star in his hand. "AND KOOPAS ARE MADE TO SERVE ME!"

"NO!"

Toadstool looked up in the air to see Kamilia Koopa, soaring down on her broomstick, waving her wand, a burst of light exploding from its tip. Now it was Toadstool's turn to be filled to the brim with hurt. His bones began to crackle and snap. His skin started to shrink and deteriorate. His very body was changing…shrinking. He exploded with light and, when it cleared, all that was left of the great King Toadstool was his robe and crown, ripped and cracked, lying on the ground.

Kammy landed softly on the hard ground and ran over to Giga Bowser. He had taken a lot of damage and wasn't designed for a loss. She ran over to his side and realized that…Giga Bowser was no more.

Bowser had returned, though he had changed. Some of the Giga remained in his body. His jaw was still bigger, his muscles were still pretty large, and his claws were still bigger than a normal Koopas. But he was alive, and Kammy was overjoyed.

Bowser awoke with a start, twitching and stuttering. "Wha-Wha…what…ha-happened?" he asked, jittery. Kammy held him tight.

"Bowser, some of the Giga may still be inside you, but Toadstool is gone. You have nothing to fear or worry about anymore."

Bowser pushed her away, his eyes still glowing slightly. "You killed him?" he cried. "How could you do that to me? I had him! I could've killed him!"

Kammy cringed. His voice had changed. It wasn't soothing and gentle anymore. It was now loud and coarse…like a constant roar. He growled.

"You never let me do anything on my own!" he shouted as he began to, slowly now, walk out the giant crack in the wall of the castle. Kammy knew what was going on. It was the side-effect of the Giga Potion. Some of his mind was still consumed by Giga, which made him act coldly and aggressively for a moment or two. She knew it would be best to leave him alone for the time being, though it hurt her so. She climbed back on her broomstick and flew away.

As she did so, a small Toad climbed out from under the pile of Toadstool's remaining clothes. He had brown spots on his large mushroom-like head and a small brown mustache.

King Toadstool starred in horror. He had become a Toad himself! Now nobody could possibly stop Bowser from taking over the Mushroom Kingdom. Nobody except…

"Peachie…"

He needed to contact his daughter, now 15, who was visiting a friend in a faraway land called "Italy." He needed to warn her somehow…but he couldn't let her know that he had transformed into a Toad. He sighed and stood up.

'I will follow her wherever she goes.' He decided. 'I will keep my true identity a secret, but will make sure she stays safe…' he picked up an old cane that was blown in during the battle.

'As Sir Toadsworth.'

Bowser continued walking, passed the battlefield, passed the borders of Mushroom Kingdom Square, until he got back to his cave at Keep Canyon. Lava had flowed over his cottage. He felt a few tears growing as he saw the remains of his home being burnt to the ground, but then thought nothing of it as he continued onward.

"So, even your family home means nothing to you anymore?"

Bowser spun around, roaring, claws clenched into a fist. His eyes widened slightly as he saw who it was that was talking to him.

A tall, built Koopa, much older than he, but still as strong. From his belt swung a War Hammer, much like his…fathers? On his back, a blue shell with spikes on it, much like his. He knew who it was who had come to confront him.

"Hello again, Brank."

dun dun DUNNNN! (Oh, and in case you didn't guess, Kamilia stole Brank's original green shell and gave it to Bowser. That's why, this time around, he's got a blue spikey shell.)
