Mushroom City was full of activity as Wiggler and Petey Piranha were flying high above the metropolis, with Wiggler riding in Petey's red pouch.

"Wow, it looks great up here!" Wiggler shouted as she looked all over. "Petey, we have to do this more often!"

Petey nodded in agreement as he flapped his leaves about like wings, only for Petey to be knocked out of the sky by a cannonball. Petey and Wiggler screamed as they went crashing into the rooftop of a skyscraper, with a giant, yellow colored wooden airship looming overhead.

"Ugh! What was that?" Wiggler asked as she crawled out of Petey's pouch, rubbing her head with her upper right hand.

They then looked up, to see the giant wooden airship coming towards them. Petey and Wiggler exchanged worried looks as they pondered what to do.


The traffic on the bridge was more than anticipated as it was rush hour, with the regular green shelled Lakitu who served as the announcer for the race watched, seeing more trucks than usual.

"Sheesh, this traffic is getting heavy." Lakitu commented as he folded his arms together, shaking his head. "Good thing no one here is racing."

He then winced, to see Birdo and Toad riding in the orange colored Bloom Coach, barely squeezing through the tight traffic as Lakitu shook his head in disbelief, taking a deep breath as he was relieved to see the girls get through the traffic, only to get hit by a speeding truck towards the eastern direction as he lowered his cloud too low. He opened his eyes, seeing the vehicles run him over as he squinted to see a giant wooden airship high in the night, neon lit sky going across the city, groaning in pain as he was too weakened to get back up.


"Baby, I'd totally let you ride my giant wooden airship," A drunk, green Hammer Bro stated to a female, pink colored Bob-omb Bob-omb, both of them inside a bar inside one of the Mushroom City's many skyscrapers.

The pink Bob-omb Buddy, rather annoyed by the Hammer Bro's gesture, scoffed as she turned her head away. "Please. You're drunk, bro."

"B-but babe, I can w-work something out!" The Hammer Bro stated.

It was then that a wooden airship collided with the skyscraper, causing it to tumble down as everyone ran away and screamed.


Bowser Junior was patrolling the Mushroom City in his Koopa Klown Kar as he looked down at the metropolis below, noticing the people running away in fear.

"Man, what is wrong with these people?" Bowser Jr. remarked as he moved his hands about. "There's nothing out here to fear! Why are they acting like scared guppies!?"

A large shadow loomed over Bowser Jr., making him glance up to see several giant wooden airships flying above him, noticing that none of them belonged to his father.

"...Oh." Bowser Jr. stated as he screamed, activating his shield for the Koopa Klown Kar as the airships began opening fire on him and the city.


Dry Bowser watched from a hotel room on the northern border of the Mushroom City as various giant wooden airships came cruising through the city, with the skeletal reptile noticing several differences about them.

"Hmmm. Either Bowser upped his airship designs, or these do not belong to him at all." Dry Bowser remarked as he sipped his grape wine, sitting on his giant regal bed as he shook his head. "Knowing that bull headed idiot, it likely is the latter case."


"I heard that they recently opened Toad City." Toadette stated as she was driving through one of the Mushroom City's many congested highways in a Cheep Charger kart alongside a female, yellow shelled Koopa Troopa, who was riding in a downgraded Blooper kart.

"Oh really?" The female Koopa responded as she faced Toadette.

Toadette nodded as she opened her eyes, the two lightweight drivers squeezing through the trucks and buses amongst them. "Yeah. It has that newfangled Mario Kart TV Headquarters there."

The Koopa huffed as she smirked. "You mean the place for all those stupid videos for Mario Kart 8?"

"Yep!" Toadette exclaimed as she smiled.

The Koopa sighed as she rolled her eyes, moving her right hand side to side. "I'll never understand the appeal of watching dumb races like Mario Kart."

As they continued driving amongst the traffic towards the eastern direction on the highway through the city, they glanced up to see several giant airships above them, not knowing what to make of it as the airships were heading westward towards the heart of the metropolis.


Silver The Hedgehog sighed as he was going through the streets of the Mushroom City, trying not to drop the several different cardboard boxes of pizzas in his hands as various different Mario enemies went right past him, as well as pushing him to the side.

"Hey! Watch it!" Silver exclaimed as he growled, glaring down at the boxes of pizzas. "Ugh, I should have left Sonic to do this. He knows the Marioverse more than me..."

It was then that the number of people walking on the sidewalks severely decreased, as everyone began running and screaming, the giant wooden airships unleashing fire onto the city. Silver screamed as he used his green psychic power to hover away, trying not to get himself or the pizzas blasted.

"Ack! I always preferred hovering, but not like this!" Silver exclaimed as he got blasted a few times on his quills, trying to find a good place to hide from the attacking airships.
