Chapter 19: Return of the Original Team
The light surrounding the strange man began to fade and his image became more clear. Both Ultra Mario and Perfect Tabuu went wide eyed at the sight of this man. He had a face similar to Mario's, had a mustache just like Mario's, and wore red clothes. However, he was dressed like a knight instead of a plumber.
Perfect Tabuu- I-it can't be…Marco Mario…
Ultra Mario- What?!
Marco- I told you I had one final trump card waiting to be used against Tabuu at the right moment.
Poke'mon Hunter J and Dimentio helped Perfect Tabuu stand back up.
Dimentio- Master Tabuu…are you being serious?! Is that actually Marco Mario standing before us?!
Perfect Tabuu- I'd never forget that face! That is him without a doubt!
Marco- Been a long time, Tabuu. Not long enough in my opinion.
Then Marco extended his hand and offered to help Ultra Mario back up. Ultra Mario took Marco's hand and got back to his feet.
Marco- You're not hurt, are you?
Ultra Mario- I'm fine, but how…
Marco- Like I said, I set up this surprise for this very moment and that help would come when you needed it the most.
Super Sonic- Unreal!
Ty- Mario's ancestor…right here and back from the dead…
Fawful- So what if leader of old team come back from other side! It change nothing!
Then Dimentio and Fawful tried to charge at Marco, but Marco dodged both Dimentio and Fawful. But then Marco quickly jabbed his right knee into Dimentio's stomach and made him cringe in pain. Before Dimentio could do anything about it, Marco pulled out a red star of his own, turned into Ultra Marco, used a white fireball to power up his sword, and knocked Dimentio into the wall with a flaming swing of his sword. Fawful launched the mouth of his headgear to try and swallow Ultra Marco from behind, but Ultra Marco grabbed the cord and spun it and Fawful, who was still wearing the headgear, over his head like a lasso before hurling Fawful into the wall like Dimentio.
Perfect Tabuu- I see you're just as strong as ever, Marco. I don't know how you managed to pull this little rescue for your replacement, but do you think you returning from the Overthere alone will make a difference?
Ultra Marco- HA! Who said anything about me coming alone?
Suddenly, a bright light was coming out of Ultra Luigi's body.
Ultra Luigi- Hey…what's…
Before Luigi could finish, the light engulfed him for a moment. When it faded, another man appeared before Luigi. This man looked similar to Luigi just as Marco resembled Mario.
Loewy- He's right, Tabuu! After all, my bro didn't defeat you alone!
Perfect Tabuu- Loewy Mario?!
Ultra Marco- Hey Loewy, glad you could make it!
Loewy- Any time, Marco!
Suddenly a bright light was coming out of Yoshi and Donkey Kong's body.
Yoshi- Light from Yoshi too?!
Donkey Kong- What's happening?!
When the light faded, a Yoshi who looked similar to Yoshi appeared in front of Yoshi. A gorilla who looked similar to Donkey Kong only he was twice Donkey Kong's size appeared in front of Donkey Kong.
Ihsoy- Ihsoy not part of fight on Shooting Star Summit, but Ihsoy part of Mario's just like rest! Mario Brothers Ihsoy's friend and Ihsoy help friends beat meanie Tabuu!
King Kong- King Kong help too! King Kong no let Tabuu hurt friends!
Then the light was coming out of Link and Grand Hammer Kirby's body.
Link- This light…
Grand Hammer Kirby- POYO?!
When the light faded, a swordsman with a face similar to Link's appeared only he was wearing the pelt of a gray wolf to cover most of his body. And there was a female Star Warrior who looked similar to Kirby, only she was a lighter shade of pink, a red bow on the side of her head, and had a bit of makeup on her face.
Wolf- (HOWL)
Kimberly- POYA!
Then the light shined through Ash's body.
Pikachu- Pika Pi?!
Ho-Oh- Master Ash…?
When the light faded, a young man dressed like a prince and a face similar to Ash's appeared. This prince also appeared to have a Pikachu placed on his shoulder.
Ho-Oh- M-M-Master…Calmly…
Prince Calmly- Good to see you again, Ho-Oh. I trust your new master has been treating you right?
Calmly's Pikachu- Pika!
Then the light was coming from Super Sonic's body.
Super Sonic- What now?!
When the light faded, a hedgehog with a face similar to Sonic's stood before him. Only this hedgehog's fur was as white as snow and he had a cyan blue scarf wrapped around his neck.
Chaos- Sonic! Good to see you again!
Super Sonic- You…know me…?
Chaos- I guess that incident with the Time Eater monster James and that egghead hasn't happened yet in your time. Still, it's great to see you again!
Then the light was coming from Ty's body.
Ty- What's happening?!
When the light faded, a gray Tasmanian tiger with a scar over one eye and a boomerang as large as his body appeared in front of Ty.
Simba- G'day mate!
Ty- Simba…hold on! How do I know you're really Simba and not the Quinking in Simba's form, mate?
Then a red aura surrounded Simba's body as he activated the Sacred Bunyip power like Ty has.
Simba- I don't think the Quinking can copy this. I'm the real deal, mate!
Then the light was coming from Pit's body.
Pit- Lady Palutena…why am I feeling…
Before Pit could finish the light shined. When it faded, another angel stood in front of Pit.
Palutena (telepathically to Icarus)- I-I-ICARUS!
Icarus- Happy to hear you still remember me, Lady Palutena! Brings a tear to my eye.
Pit- You mean…this is…
Then the light shined through Shantae's body.
Shantae- This light…could it be…
When the light faded, a genie who looked like an older version of Shantae appeared in front of her. However, Shantae went wide eyed when she saw this genie, like she recognized her instantly.
Azra- Oh…hi there…
Shantae- MOTHER!
Shantae immediately ran up to Azra and wrapped her arms around her.
Pit- Mother?
Kimberly- So Azra, this was the child you always talked about wanting to have?
Azra- Yes. Shantae is my little girl.
Shantae- Wait…does that mean…
Azra- Yes, I was part of the Super Mario Brothers' Team that Marco Mario put together. Guess the secret is out. I'm very sorry you had to get involved with fighting Tabuu.
Shantae- Mother…there's nothing to apologize for. I actually chose to be part of the Super Mario Brothers' Team, just like you chose back then. I've always been following in your footsteps and proud to be a Guardian Genie just like my mother. I am your daughter after all.
A tear went down Azra's cheek as she wrapped her arms around Shantae as well.
Azra- I guess you're right. And I am so proud of the genie my little girl grew into! But now it's mommy's turn to help you, Shantae.
Loewy- In fact, we're all here to help you.
Luigi- What?!
Pit- Help us?
Icarus- Why else would the entire original Super Mario Brothers' Team return?
Wolf- The fight with Tabuu is still far from over.
Kimberly- And we still have a part to play in stopping this evil god.
Chaos- Even though our time has past long ago, we're all still willing to fight to keep your worlds safe from Tabuu.
Marco- After all…we're Mario Brothers too.
Then Perfect Tabuu's body was surrounded by that black aura again as more of his power was lashing out from his body.
Perfect Tabuu- Mario…Marco…Luigi…Loewy…or whoever the **** I have to fight…if makes no difference! I'll still crush all of you!
Hades- Hey, don't forget us, Tabuu. We're still in your corner.
Fawful- Mario's of the past or future…Fawful see no difference. They all die the same.
Poke'mon Hunter J- Don't think you've won just because there are twice as many of you than before!
Dimentio- I agree with Fawful. I don't see much of a difference between the new and the old team!
Perfect Tabuu- Still, this is the perfect way to get my revenge on you, Marco! Today…I will end the Super Mario Brothers' Team of the past and future once and for all! (ROOOOOOAAAAAARRR)!
Ultra Mario placed his hand on Ultra Marco's should and Ultra Marco turned his head to face Ultra Mario.
Ultra Mario- You remember that I promised I would find a way to defeat Tabuu for good? Would you mind lending me a hand in fulfilling that promise, Marco?
Ultra Marco- Mario…I thought you'd never ask!
Then Ultra Mario and Ultra Marco turn around to face both of their teams.
Ultra Marco- We're all in this too, right?
Then Loewy pulls out a red star to turn into Ultra Loewy.
Ultra Luigi and Ultra Loewy (at the same time)- Right behind you, bro!
Yoshi- Yoshi do his part!
Ihsoy- As will Ihsoy!
Donkey Kong- You bet! I'm ready to bust some head!
King Kong- King Kong help friends defeat Tabuu once…King Kong happy do again!
Link- We're friends and I would never turn my back on you guys!
Wolf- A wolf always sticks with its pack!
Kirby- Our bond of friendship is tighter than family!
Kimberly- And like a real family, we'll always be there when you need us!
Ash- Like a Poke'mon battle, we all fight together as one!
Prince Calmly- And we'll win as one, just like we did 1,000 years ago at Shooting Star Summit!
Both Pikachu's (at the same time)- Pi Pikachu!
Super Sonic- Let's blast through them at Super Sonic speed!
Chaos- Marco, I still owe you so much for what you did for me the day we met…
Then Chaos used the Chaos Emeralds to transform into Super Chaos.
Super Chaos- I'm willing to fight with you to the bitter end back then and I still am today!
Ty and Simba (at the same time)- All the way, mates!
Pit and Icarus (at the same time)- In the name of Palutena, Tabuu's evil will be put to an end!
Azra- I'm Ret-2-Go!
Shantae- Ret-2-Go…I knew I picked up that phrase from somewhere!
Ultra Marco- We all got your back, Mario. Now let's show Tabuu the true power of the Super Mario Brothers!
Ultra Mario- Thank you, Marco. And it looks like history is going to repeat itself in the worst possible way for you, Tabuu! Like before, you'll be defeated at the hands of the Super Mario Brothers' Team! Let's-a-go!
