"PAULINE!" shouted Mario "PAULINE! ARE YOU OKAY!" The only thing he could heard were his girlfriend's loud screams. "Where's the police?" asked Luigi "shouldn't they be here?" "We have to do something!" said a panicking Mario. "Didn't you hear the radio?" said Luigi "that monkey will crush you as soon as you get near it!" "I don't care!" yelled Mario "I have to save her!" And then he ran towards the construction site.
Donkey Kong, having a frightened female by his side, noticed Mario coming. He picked up a very heavy barrel and rolled it down the girders he slanted from his stomping earlier. Then he rolled another, and another, and another, and kept rolling down barrels. As Mario got at the first floor of the site, he instantly saw a barrel roll at him. Fear took him, he knew he couldn't run away from the barrel, so he had to think of something. Just as the barrel was about to squash him, he jumped, higher than any man with his weight. The man was surprised for a second, then remember about his girlfriend's predicament and continued to reach for her. Nobody noticed the barrel going into another barrel, making it bursting into flames releasing a strange fireball with eyes.
He climbed a ladder on the right side of the girder, since the other one was broken. Mario jumped over a few more barrels, then saw a hammer lying around. It was pretty large, the size of the worker's head. He picked it up, and saw another barrel coming by. With all his might, he crushed the barrel flat, and soon started going on a hammering rage. He crushed another, then another, and the fireball that seemed to follow him. With all the strength he was using, the hammer broke! Calming down a bit, he continued climbing up. After a few more stories, he got close enough to Pauline, Donkey Kong grabbed her and went higher of the unfinished building. During the climbing, Pauline dropped some her stuff, like her purse and umbrella. Mario followed Donkey Kong, but the gorilla went up with his hostage whenever the Italian was near. But Mario would never give up on his quest and went after them.
Soon enough, Donkey Kong ended up at the top of the under construction building, and had nowhere else to go. But it was Mario who was worried, since he couldn't go near the monkey without getting pummeled down. And what was with those blue flames? The construction worker took a step back, and stepped on a rusty piece of a girder. It broke off and fell below, nearly taking Mario if he didn't react quickly. "What the heck?" Mario said to himself "that moron George, he forgot to replace these girders! Now all of them will break off and send the top floor…into….pieces." Mario just had an idea. It would risky, but it may work.
Down below, Luigi was watching the whole thing, as were many construction workers and civilians. "What is the man doing?" asked a woman. "I think he's going to break the girders!" a worker said. "He's going to be killed!" shouted a man. Luigi only kept staring at Mario.
Mario, ignoring everybody down below, was walking over the rusted girders. He stepped on a yellow center of a blue girder, jumped as the center broke off, then jumped over a blue fireball, and continued to the next girder. He could already feel the place wobble, having the lack of metal to hold itself straight. The gorilla was confused, his hostage cried in fear. Mario only had one more girder to go. Sweat was pouring on his forehead, and his mind said to stop this daredevil stunt. But he continued moving. Mario quickly stomped on the last yellow part of the girder, jumped to safety, and waited.
Nothing happened at first, but then the metal made a loud screeching noise. And in the three seconds, the top part of the construction building collapsed. Everyone down below gasped. "no…." whispered Luigi, who then fell on his knees crying. People lowered their heads in respect. It was suddenly quiet, despite being a noisy city. Just then, someone shouted "hey, they're still alive!" That caused many people, especially Luigi, to look back up again. Sure enough, there was Mario, holding tightly to Pauline, who had fainted from near-death. Donkey Kong was near them, laying on his back in a dazed. All the viewers of this event clapped and cheered, knowing that one man pulled of such an act and lived to tell about it.
The only one who wasn't please, was Foreman Spike.
