Toad The Bastard


Bowser's Castle

Mario, our illustrious hero of the Mushroom Kingdom, has braved the many dangerous lands in search for the kidnapped Princess Peach.

His journey was now finally coming to a close as he approached Bowser's eighth and final fortress.

Before Mario could get in through the front door, Toad zips out of nowhere and blocks his path.

"Outta my way, Toad, I'm going to save-a the Princess!" Mario says to the little mushroom dude.

"But Mario, the Princess is in another castle!" Toad informs him.

Mario's eyes glower upon Toad. "Yeah-a right! That's what you said-a in the seven other castles I broke through looking for her! Without a doubt she has to-a be in this one!" Mario tells Toad.

"Wait! My intelligence was incorrect on the others, but I'm one hundred percent sure she's not inside!" Toad insisted upon the plumber.

"Oh really? Prove it!" Mario says sternly to Toad.

As if on cue, Bowser appears from behind Toad and confronts Mario.

"Get off my property, plumber-butt, I don't have your precious Princess…yet," Bowser growls before turning and disappearing back into his fortress.

Toad looks up at Mario with a cheesy smile on his face. "See? Told ya!" Toad says.

A now frustrated Mario picks up Toad and holds him at eye-level. "Well? Tell me where-a she is already!" Mario demands.

Several Hours Later

Some time later, Mario wanders through a very dark and creepy land he's never visited before. Upon reaching the top of a large hill, he sees an old sign.

"Welcome To Castlevania," it read.

Just past the sign was an extremely large and foreboding castle in the backdrop. Gulping with a bit of apprehension, Mario gains his confidence and proceeds to the castle's entrance, opening the tall doors and stepping inside the pitch-black lobby.

"Hello? Anybody here?" Mario calls out.

Mario's call was soon silenced as a very tall and pale vampire appears behind him.

"Vell…this is all those blasted Belmonts could come up vith to take me out? Pathetic. I vill feast upon your blood, fat man!" said Alucard, son of Dracula, as he proceeds to drag the now helpless Mario into the depths of his castle as the plumber cried for help along the way, his voice echoing until it faded into nothingness.

The Mushroom Kingdom

A while later, Toad is sitting on the throne of the Mushroom Kingdom wearing royal garbs and even a crown. Next to him stood his new chancellor: Bowser.

"Haha, now we control the Mushroom Kingdom. Isn't that right, King Toad?" Bowser growls at his new leader.

"Ah, its good to be the king, glad I thought of this joint takeover plot! I wonder how Mario is faring…ah who cares," Toad says in a cheeky tone. "Now, jester, bring out my concubine!" Toad commands.

Seconds later, Court Jester Luigi brings in the shackled Princess Peach, who wore dancers garbs, looking pretty pissed at the acts Toad committed against her and her kingdom.
