This is chapter is the Lost Impact chapter. So I've decided to knock the enemy count from 35 to 20. If I did thirty five, I would have been irritated.

Part 5A: Wario's Realization

Area: The rocket heading towards Clockwork Castle

The rocket, property of the scientist, E.Gadd, Wario was on was heading towards Clockwork Castle. Clockwork Castle has been around for hundred of years. Even though, the Star Spirits managed to update the castle according to year and process of the planet. Wario, however, had more immediate matters at hand. The object that was powering the rocket was the aqua Magical Orb.

"A Magical Orb?" Wario said happily. "You guys must be poor comedians. This is like taking candy from baby. Of which I do that too!"

However when Wario broke open the case containing the Magical Orb, the began to rumble and the emergency lights flashed and the warning siren sounds.

"Opps."

"Wario! Help me!" a sweet, female voice cried inside Wario's head.

It wasn't long when Wario had a flashback of him at the age of fifteen. He suddenly found himself at Clockwork Castle, fifteen years ago. He saw the dark skinned girl with red braided hair walk up to him.

"Laura?" Young Wario asked.

"Please, Wario! I need your help!" she said as she grabbed Wario's hand. "Your father's experiments. Something's gone terribly wrong!"

"What?"

"The research lab…it's going to be destroyed. Something must be done! Please, Wario I beg of you! Help your father and those aboard the castle! Please!"

Wario knew what to do.

"I'll be there, Laura. No matter what, I'll rescue my dad and Clockwork Castle."

Wario followed Laura to where she was talking about.

"Wario, this way," she said. "The experimental monsters are out of control. They're on a rampage. Please, you must protect the castle!"

Wario went and saw the monster Laura was talking about. It was purple and transparent. It had a tail it walked on instead of feet. It also had long hands. And its appearance made seem it was female.

"The shadowy experiments are a by-product based off a demon queen of an ancient culture." Laura explained.

Wario shuttered "Hate to wonder what would happen if that queen was released."

The experiment stretched out its arms at Wario but Wario dodged and gave a the creature a good hurting. Soon enough, the beast fell.

"Thank you! There are still more out there in the castle."

Wario and Laura went through another hallway and entered another room. They saw P.U.N. soldiers fighting another experiment. The experiment took down the soldiers with ease. Wario managed to defeat the creature.

"Man," Wario said. "Poor guys."

Wario and Laura saw an elevator and the two hopped on it went up two stories. Wario saw an experiment and another elevator. Wario defeated the experiment.

"The research experiments….their eyes seem so sad," Laura sadly said.

"Yeah," Wario agreed.

Wario and Laura went up to the third story and headed inside another room. In the room was dynamite. The next room contained an experiment. Wario used the dynamite to blow up the monster.

"I knew I could on you, Wario. I'm so sorry this all had to happen."

Wario felt happy. Someone said she could count on him. Wario and Laura went back to the elevator and went down to the first floor. They found themselves going through a long hallway. Wario saw two more research experiments and defeated them. When Wario exited the hallway, he was in another room that had two experiments. He managed to defeat both of them.

"Good job!" Laura rewarded.

They went through another long hallway where they saw three experiments. Wario defeated all three of them. When he was done, he saw the beauty of the castle.

"Such a magnificent place," he thought. "I can't believe I once lived here."

Wario exited the hallway and saw another elevator and experiment. He defeated the experiment and went up the elevator.

"The research experiments are supposed to for the better of all kinds," Laura explained. But then see added. "Why are these awful monsters here?"

"I don't know," Wario said. "But they're going down!"

Wario saw and experiment above him and a pole before him. He climbed up the pole to defeat it. He went back down the pole and went to another elevator. He went up to the third floor and found two more experiments. He defeated them. He went back down to the first floor after he saw that P.U.N. soldiers had the area defended pretty well. They entered another door and saw a fork in the hallway.

"Which way should we go?" Laura wondered.

Wario suggested right. They entered a room with an experiment. Wario defeated it. He also found a Bullet Bill launcher to use. They went back to the fork and headed to the left. They saw soldiers trying ambush an experiment on the other side of a wall that had a hole in it.

"All these brave people!" Laura simply said.

Wario went through the hole and defeated the experiment.

"Good job, Wario!" the Toad soldier said.

"Yeah," his Koopa partner agreed. "You're a good kid. Never change."

Wario felt proud. Maybe he realized helping people without any way to profit was a good thing. Wario and Laura headed right. They entered a hallway that branched to two directions. Wario and Laura went left, since right leads to a dead end. Wario saw more soldiers trying take down an experiment. Wario used his Bullet Bill launcher to defeat the experiment.

"Wario are you alright? There are only two of them left."

Wario felt giddy. They went right and entered another room. They saw the last two near dynamite. Wario shot at the dynamite. Its explosion caused the experiments to be destroyed. Laura was happy beyond belief.

"Oh, Wario thank you!" She cried happily.

"Glad I can be of help," he said. "I'll always be here for you."

Wario then began to have another flashback. This time young Wario was in some sort of escape pod. As for Laura…. She was falling down as if she was dying. And she was.

"Laura?" Wario said from inside the pod.

Unfortunately, Laura wasn't able to make it to the pod. She was dying but she remained happy. She crawled toward the pod Wario was in and spoke to him.

"Wario," she said. "You have to go. The fate of everyone depends on….you."

Those were her last words.

"LAURA!" Wario shouted as his escape pod made a course towards the planet.

Wario flashed out of his flashback.

"Laura," he sadly muttered.

Adult Wario managed to find himself with Mario. They were both running through one outer area of Clockwork Castle. Mario noticed something in the black, starry sky.

"Wario, look up there."

Wario did so and saw a black comet that passing by.

"What's that?" Wario asked.

"Every thirty years, that black comet passes by this planet." Mario answered. Then he realized something. "Hey, do you think that those black aliens are connected to that comet somehow?"

"Black…Comet?" Wario said. He collapsed on the floor holding his head with his hand. Mario looked concerned.

"Wario, are you alright?"

Wario was alright but he had thought. "I think you're right. I can somehow sense that their up there."

Wario stood back up. "That is where the answers are. I'm going to that comet."

Mario thought it was good idea to go up there too. So Wario headed for the comet to find his true destiny.
