I'm glad all of you love the final battle! The story isn't over yet. Read on!
Chapter 83: The End of the Battle! Light Returns to the World!
Mario lets the Fire Rod retracts back to him and then he lets out a loud cry, "YAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!"
The other Smashers watch with awe and wide-open mouths from below. "Incredible… Mario did it…" gasps Yoshi.
"Something I would never expect!" exclaims Bowser.
"And what a majestic way too!" adds Peach.
Mario falls towards below, but is immediately caught by Master Hand and Crazy Hand. "That was the greatest thing I've ever seen in my life!" says CH. "You made a Hand proud!"
"That was a great job, Mario!" says MH.
"Yeah… I just had to do eet…" says Mario.
With a large hole on the Dark Reactor, it begins to give off a bright flash. All the Darkling down below begin to run and scream like wild. Little by little, their body begins to disintegrate until they disappear. The screaming and wailing kept on going until the last of the Darkling disappears from the face of the world, forever…
Smoke begins to churn out from every part of the Black Wing. The powerful blow destroyed all its main engines and computers. The entire airship begins tilting and descending towards the sea below.
The Smashers look at the giant airship falling down. Kirby points out to something small falling next to the airship. "Hey! What's that?"
"It's Naraku!" points out Roy.
Naraku falls alongside the Black Wing and plummets into the sea first, but his body floats on the water surface. The giant airship slowly comes down on top of him, pushing him underwater. Like a submarine submerging into the water, the Black Wing disappears into the watery depth, never to be heard of or seen again…

MH and CH put Mario down onto the ground, where he is immediately surrounded by all his friends. "You did great!" Link says to him.
"Looks like I taught you well!" says Falco.
Bowser pats Mario hard on the head and says, "Ha! You're one surprising guy! You make me jealous!"
Luigi runs up to Mario and hugs him tightly. "Mario! You're alive! Thanks goodness!"
Peach walks up to him and happily says, "It's good that you're alive, Mario. I was so worried about you."
"Don't-a worry! I will never die!" says Mario proudly.
"I know you will never die. But even though we have brought an end to the Darkling, we were too late to stop the destruction of the world." Peach looks up and observe the destruction all over the place.
"That's not a problem!" says MH, and then he turns to Dr. Mario. "Doc! Your time to use your 2nd Level weapon is now! Use it!"
"Why?" asks Dr. Mario.
"The Heal Staff is made to mend things. If it can cure all kinds of sicknesses and revive the dead, then surely its 2nd form can do even better!"
"If that's the case, I'll give it a try." Dr. Mario takes out a needle and pricks his finger, and then grasps the handle of the Heal Staff and says, "Power of the Royal Hand Families, you have lent us your power, so now we shall repay you! We give you our sacred blood in exchange for even more power, the power I have in myself! Unlock my true power! Let the holy one bring down the darkness!" After saying this, the Heal Staff changes into a more beautiful-looking form.
"Now lift it up and behold its power!"
Dr. Mario raises the Heal Staff and it lets out a holy aura. Everyone feels warmth and comfort when the aura covers them. "What a feeling!" says Popo.
"I feel so warm and relaxed," says Yoshi.
"My wounds are all healed too!" adds Marth.
The aura spreads farther and farther until the entire of Onett is covered in a ball of light. Finally, the aura dies out and to everyone's surprise, everything is rebuilt and back to normal! The sky is now bright as the morning and flowers and trees are back to life, with birds and butterflies dancing around happily!
"Wow! Am I'm dreaming?" wonders Zelda in amazement.
"You're not dreaming!" MH tells her. "This is the power of the Heal Staff!"
"But why is blood required to activate the second form?" asks Mewtwo.
"That is because to show that you are able to protect yourself," answers MH. "You see, using the Holy Weapon means you are requesting the help of the Royal Hand Family. Using it is just like letting them protect you. Now that you have offered blood to them, it means you are now capable of protecting yourself; so therefore, you get rewarded for being able to do so. And that reward is the 2nd Level Weapon."
"It sure makes some sense."
"Hey, a crowd is coming towards us," points out Yoshi.
Indeed, several people are coming towards them from afar, and in the lead is none of other than the mayor of Onett, Mayor Pirkle. The mayor approaches them and says, "You have done well to save the city and the whole world! I come to thank you all in behalf of the town!"
"Yes! It was because of my guidance that all of this can happen!" says Falco proudly.
"Looks like we did something great!" says Roy happily.
"No wonder you're my favorite man," Lilina says to him as she places her head close to his shoulder. Roy blushes with delight at this.
Pokey goes up to Ness and says, "Ness! You're such a hero! I was wrong about you all along! After seeing all that you've done, I'm so proud of you! You're my role model now!"
"Yeah, yeah, whatever…" says Ness, but in his mind, he is actually thinking. "You're gonna go back to hating me after a while…"
Mayor Pirkle turns to the crowd behind him and announces, "I officially claim this day as a special day that the Smashers saved the world! It will be a special holiday!"
"YAY!" cheer the crowds.
"Cool! A holiday dedicated to us!" says G&W excitedly.
"Today is sure a great day!" says Pichu joyfully.
"I want to sing happy song!" says Jigglypuff. Suddenly, they all hear a happy song that is coming closer and closer to them. They turn around see Barney skipping happily towards them!
"My friends! How have you been?" asks Barney cheerfully. With each step he takes, there is a slight tremor on the ground.
"AHHHHH! THE TRUE INCARNATION OF EVIL!" screams Luigi.
"Away with you, evil spirit! Flare Blade!" Roy swings his sword at Barney and sends him flying into the air.
"Weeeeeeeeeeeee! I'm flying!" shouts Barney as he disappears over the horizon.
