Alright, well…you know the usual. Let's begin.
Bowser Jr. and the Koopalings had not been given the time to plan out something to cheer their father up, since they had been informed by Kammy and Kamek that he had gone off to the Mushroom Kingdom.
"Is he going to kidnap Mama Peach?" Lemmy asked, "I thought he said he'd stop!"
"Well, actually, he has gained the ability to become human, and he has decided to pay a visit to the Princess." Kammy said.
"What?" Bowser Jr. said, "He can change into a human? How?"
Kamek cleared his throat, "He used an ancient relic to alter his DNA, while the mystic power it has embedded in him has kept his original DNA as a "memory" genetic code."
Ludwig rubbed his chin, "Um…what?"
Kammy sighed, "He used a magical stone to change into a human, and he can also change back at will."
The Koopalings' eyes widened, "Really?" they all said.
Kammy nodded, "Yes, this power is really something…unusual, and interesting." She said, "We figured it would be of benefit to him…and to the Dark Lands."
"So, what you're saying…" Larry began, "…is that Papa is going to try to get Mama Peach to be his queen?"
"I believe so." Kammy said, "And if she is to agree, she cannot easily call off the marriage after the King reveals his identity. This, I believe, is quite a good custom; the Dark Lands prohibits no-fault divorce."
"Hmm…" Bowser nodded in agreement, "…as a kid, I know I shouldn't care, but I'm glad we can cover more land!"

Bowser, Peach, and Mario all got tickets to see the highly atrocious Super Mario Bros. The Movie, simply out of tradition of the infamous "Bad Movie Tuesday".
Mario thought that this parody of him was quite insulting, but neither Bowser nor Peach appeared to mind too much, as they believed that it was ambitious to try to take a different approach in an alternate universe.
"I think-a this movie is-a horrible!" Mario complained.
"Think you better shut your ass!" Bowser said, turning his head in Mario's direction without looking away from the screen.
Peach glanced over at Mario, "…Yes, Mario, please be quiet in the theater." She said.
Suddenly, Bowser felt someone sit in the chair next to him, opposite side to Peach.
"Hey, Richter! Hope you don't mind." She said, smiling.
"Carmilla?" Bowser asked, "What are you doing here?"
Carmilla snickered, "Watchin' a movie, duh! I saw you sitting up here, and figured I'd join. Is that okay?" she asked, smiling creepily.
"Uh…sure?" Bowser responded.
"Good!" she said, returning her attention to the movie. Bowser did the same.
Bowser reached into the popcorn at the same time as Peach, making their hands meet. They both quickly pulled back, blushed, and laughed awkwardly. Carmilla glared at the two.
Just you wait, Richter Valentine… Carmilla thought, …I will have you soon enough!
("Billie Jean" by Michael Jackson begins)
After leaving the theater, Peach and Bowser requested Mario to give them some time alone, to which he reluctantly agreed. Meanwhile, Carmilla began to follow them to the Kart-races.
She was more like a beauty queen from a movie scene.
I said don't mind, but what do you mean, I am the one?
Who will dance on the floor in the round?
She said I am the one, who will dance on the floor in the round?
During the race, Peach and Bowser were at neck-and-neck with each other, both laughing in joy as they looked at each other, having the time of their lives…up until Peach was hit with a green Koopa shell that must have taken great accuracy to hit her with, and it was launched by none other than…Carmilla, who pulled up to Bowser's side, smiling again. Bowser just narrowed his eyes at her and sped on.
She told me her name was Billie Jean, as she caused a scene,
Then every head turned with eyes that dreamed of being the one.
Who will dance on the floor in the round?
After the Kart-races, Peach and Bowser both decided to compete in a Party board game. Bowser was trying to let Peach win, out of his sympathy for her. But, this quickly backfired when Carmilla, who was in last, ended up taking some stars and coins from her during the fifth-from-last turn (which, everyone knows, is the rules for this game). She was quite grateful for getting some form of justification.
People always told me be careful of what you do;
And don't go around breaking young girls' hearts.
And mother always told me be careful of who you love,
And be careful of what you do 'cause the lie becomes the truth.
During the minigames of the Party game, Carmilla would always try to make Peach her priority target in the general categories of minigame. But, whenever she would get the "1" spot in the "1 vs. 3" game layout, that was when things would get interesting; she would, depending on the case, avoid Peach, even if it meant getting caught by Bowser, or getting Peach first, as well as the Toad competing, and throw Bowser a bone by sparing him.
Billie Jean is not my lover;
She's just a girl who claims that I am the one,
But the kid is not my son.
She says I am the one, but the kid is not my son.
For forty days and forty nights,
The law was on her side,
But who can stand when she's in demand;
Her schemes and plans.
'Cause we danced on the floor in the round.
So take my strong advice, just remember to always think twice.
(Do think twice)
Do think twice.
It was then that the "Prince" and Princess decided to head to the massive arcade and play the traditional Mario Bros. arcade game, which was made as a tribute to Mario and Luigi's plumbing skills. Peach decided to be Mario, as Bowser did not want to play as his true enemy, so he decided to be Luigi. They were playing quite well, up until Carmilla came out of nowhere, shoved Peach out of the way ("Step aside, Pinkie!"), and took the controls. Bowser, in his monstrous form, would have found this amusing, but his human nature told him that what Carmilla did was not nice or funny at all.
She told my baby we'd danced till three, then she looked at me,
Then showed a photo my baby cried his eyes were like mine (oh, no!).
'Cause we danced on the floor in the round, baby.
People always told me be careful of what you do,
And don't go around breaking young girls' hearts.
She came and stood right by me;
Just the smell of sweet perfume.
This happened much too soon.
She called me to her room.
Later, Peach and Bowser took a walk through a massive flower garden. Bowser thought flowers were sissy stuff, but after taking a second to get a hint of their aroma ("Mmm…best smell ever…"), he slowly began to reconsider. While Bowser was distracted by the smell of the flora, Peach decided to sit on the rim of the garden's fountain with a comb, and fix her hair. Unfortunately, Carmilla snuck up behind her, and shoved her into the fountain. Laughing quite hard, Carmilla quickly ran and hid in a thick tree before Peach would get up and see. Peach emerged from the water with an angry shriek, and Bowser rushed over to help her out.
Billie Jean is not my lover;
She's just a girl who claims that I am the one,
But the kid is not my son.

After getting some dry clothes on, Peach met up with Bowser again to join the dinner party. The buffets were filled with some of the most delectable, succulent, mouth-watering royal dishes. Bowser was the first to make his selections (he would have hated vegetables in his Koopa form, but as a human, they didn't taste too bad), and Peach was about to join him, when…of course…Carmilla sat in the spot Peach was about to sit in, like Peach wasn't even coming. Irritated, Bowser stood and decided to take Peach to another spot to sit, leaving a completely bewildered Carmilla.
Billie Jean is not my lover;
She's just a girl who claims that I am the one,
But the kid is not my son.
She says I am the one, but the kid is not my son.
She says I am the one,
You know what you did!
(She says he is my son)
Breaking my heart babe!
She says I am the one.
After dinner, the two decided to watch the fireworks explode over the castle. The array of shapes, colors, patterns, and text in the sky was amazing and dazzling. Once again, while enjoying the performance, Carmilla suddenly appeared next to Bowser again, and wrapped her arms around him. Shocked and with a contorted face, Bowser pried his arms loose from her grip and shoved her away with a lot of force.
Billie Jean is not my lover.
Billie Jean is not my lover.
Billie Jean is not my lover.
Billie Jean is not my lover.
(Don't, Billie Jean).
Billie Jean is not my lover.
Billie Jean is not my lover.
Bowser was surprised how everything was going with Peach. For the first time ever, she was actually grateful to be with him (well, not him-him, but…you get the idea). The only thing bothering him was that Carmilla girl. She has been really annoying, trying to get the first shot with him when he didn't want her. Maybe if he were to just brush her off, she would leave him alone.
Anyways, there was still one thing Bowser was looking forward to that he was sure would make this trip worthwhile; the ball.
Yeah, I know I have a tendency to go overboard with songfic, but this one I really felt I couldn't pass up. I even listen to the songs as I am writing, just for empathy. May you Rest in Peace, Michael. Your legacy as the King of Pop will live in our hearts forever. That covers another chapter, so another will be on its way soon! Keep holding on…
