Sparkster flies after the clown car.

"Stop! Don't make me destroy you!"

Sparkster was joined by Mario, who was flying with a cape.

"Bowser! Get back-a here!"

Sparkster was then struck in the arm by a sword.

"Ah!"

Sparkster held his shoulder in pain, and looked on to find who his attacker was.

"Axel Gear!"

"Who?"

Axel Gear snickered and flew beside Bowser's clown car.

"Axel Gear is my arch-rival! He and I have been enemies for over sixteen years!"

"Bowser and I have been enemies for over two-and-a-half decades!"

"Well, I guess they've created an alliance!"

Sparkster slashed his sword and shot a projectile at Axel Gear. The attack had hit him in the chest, not damaging him too much, but it still hurt.

"Ouch! Dammit Sparkster!"

Axel Gear flew toward Sparkster with his sword in front of him. Sparkster swung his sword and knocked Axel Gear to the side. Sparkster and Axel Gear had an in-air duel while Mario shot fireballs at Bowser's clown car.

"Mario! Stop Bower! I'll hold off Axel!"

Mario nodded and flew faster toward Bowser. Mario landed in the clown car.

"Bowser! You and your days of-a wreaking havoc are over-a!"

"No! You will die, Mario! I will rule!"

Bowser punched Mario in the face, knocking him out of the clown car. Mario regained strength and flew toward the car again.

Meanwhile, Sparkster was dueling Axel Gear.

"I will finish you off, Sparkster! I will marry the princess and become king of Zephyrus!"

"I won't let that happen! You will never become king! Even if you do, the people will revolt and many will try to assassinate you!"

"Oh, Sparkster. Have you forgotten that I am a rocket knight too?"

Axel Gear spun Sparkster around and stabbed his rocket pack. The damage made Sparkster's rocket pack give out, and he plummeted to the surface. Mario managed to throw a star at Sparkster's rocket pack, closing the hole and giving the rocket pack power again.

Sparkster started to tangle with Axel Gear, and their fight landed on a passing plane. On the wing, Axel and Sparkster are having a sword duel.

Axel had been hitting Sparkster more, and Parkster grew tired of this.

"It's time to finish this, Axel!"

Sparkster slashed at Axle, and struck his right shoulder with his sword.

"Ah! My shoulder!"

"It's over Axel! You can't fight!"

"Don't think you've seen the last of me, Sparkster!"

Axel jumped off of the plane. Sparkster, in shock of his action, ran to see what Axel was doing, but Axel had disappeared.

Over to the fight with Bowser and Mario, Bowser has gained the upper-hand. Bowser was shooting fireballs out of his mouth and at Mario. Sparkster flew in to aide Mario. Sparkster shot an energy projectile at the clown car, damaging the copter. It started to gradually descend before Bowser did something.

"It's time to show you what I can do with these!"

Bowser held up the star keys, and they shined brightly.

"I thought those were only to unlock the secrets of the Mushroom Kingdom!"

"You thought wrong, opossum knight. These don't unlock the secrets to the Mushroom Kingdom! They are the secrets of the Mushroom Kingdom!"

Bowser had transformed himself and the clown car into more menacing appearances.

"Now! Know My true power!"

Sparkster and Mario looked at eachother.

"Sparkster, are you ready?"

"More than I'll ever be!"

Something then struck them both. A figure cloaked in black, resembling much to a mushroom, had joined Bowser in his clown car!

"Master! What-a are you-a doing?"

"You shouldn't have come here, Sparkster. Mario would have never noticed us if you haden't come along..."

Mario and Sparkster look at eachother.

"Mario! I'll take mister 'Master'. You take Bowser!"

Mario nodded and they flew forward to begin the final battle!

Next up, the final battle!
