Kamek closed the book he was reading from. "And that's the end of the story," he said, "Larry, could you get that batch of Dry Bones from Dry Bowser?"
"Sure thing!" Larry replied, and went on his way to Dry Bowser's castle ruins.
"Kamek," Lemmy nudged Kamek, "What if Rexebris comes back?"
"That's ridiculous!" Kamek laughed, "Rexebris is longdead! He'll never come back and it'll never, ever, EVER happen again."
"Are you suurrrrrrre?" Lemmy questioned.
"Of course I'm sure!" Kamek snapped back.
Dry Bowser sat in a seat located not too far from the front door of his former castle. A few Dry Bones lumbered around while the skeletal giant thought. There was once a time when he was king. A mighty king. But he and his army were destroyed, even with the power they had gained. He shook his head to clear the thoughts, almost making it fall off.
"That was agesago!" He told himself. The memories of those days hadn't come around for a long time, so why were they coming now? The bell that he had placed above the door rang as it opened, and one of Bowser's children walked in.
"Hey Uncle Dry!" Larry greeted as he entered the crumbling castle.
"Hello." Dry Bowser replied, his bones rattling as he spoke.
Dry Bowser and Bowser weren't directly related, but their blood probably met up somewhere, so his kids just called him 'Uncle Dry'.
"So, is the batch of Dry Bones ready?" Larry asked.
"Yes, they're just over there." Dry Bowser said, pointing to a group of Dry Bones playing Snap to pass the time while they waited.
Larry walked over to the Dry Bones and picked them up... sort of. Dry Bowser tossed him a sack that fell on his face. Larry took the bag off his face, picked up the Dry Bones bones and put them in the bag.
"Thanks Uncle Dry." Larry said, smiling.
Dry Bowser couldn't help but smile back as he said, "Anytime, lil' one. See ya later."
Larry walked out of the door with the Dry Bones, and the bell rang once again.
'All that once was of my former army... is going to the former enemy,' Dry Bowser thought. He shook his head clear of the thoughts again. 'No! Stop thinking that, you bony skull bag!'
But the thoughts continued, no matter how hard he tried.
'How could I let myself let it go...
'How could I let myself let go what he did to me...
'One day...
My army will rise again...'
Red was wandering the Observatory from sheer boredom. Most of the Lumas were babbling on about the storybook, and those who weren't were playing some stupid game. Apart from Polari, of course. Red sighed angrily.
"Why is there nothingto doaround here?!" He asked no-one in particular.
Suddenly, he felt a tickling sensation in his tummy. The sensation got stronger, and started to feel more like something was being boiled inside of him. Quickly, he flew over to the Red Star, an item that he had protected for a long time, and something he had let an annoying red-clad plumber use. He held it very tightly, unable to let go of it once. It would be far too dangerous if he did. He started to glow bright red, and the more the boiling sensation strengthened, the more he glowed. Eventually, his whole body was glowing.
"Are you sure that you're sure that you're sure that you're sure that you're sure that you're sure that you're sure that you're sure that you're sure that you're sure?" Lemmy questioned for what seemed like the a millionth time.
Kamek sighed angrily. "OF COURSEI'M SURE THAT I'M SURE THAT I'M SURE THAT I'M-"
Suddenly, a wave of red energy flew through the sky, shaking the earth. The earthquake caused by the wave lasted for a minute before fading.
"What... What was that about?" Lemmy asked.
"SUPERNATURAL!" Iggy screamed.
"Now now, don't go rushing to conclusions." Kamek said, "It was probably just a normal earthquake."
Bowser ran into the room and said, "Did you guys feel that earthquake just then?"
"Well what do you think." Kamek said bluntly.
"Um... yes?" Bowser asked.
Kamek nodded.
"Yayyyy I got right!" Bowser said happily.
Kamek had managed to successfully read to the kids without Lemmy disrupting him once. Kamek 1, Day 0.
