No Time to Think! (Kingdom Hearts)

Everyone ran down the stairs, leaving behind the KO'd Bowser, Ansem and Kammy. "I have a bad feeling about this!" Goombella exclaimed.

"Yeah well...we have to keep moving." Sora said as they kept running down the stairs and ran through the door.

Organization XIII (Kingdom Hearts II)

"You're too late." Grodus said, as he pointed to the chest. "That there is where the demon lives." He said as Kairi and Peach were right there.

"Sora..." Kairi said.

"Don't worry Kairi, we'll save you." Sora said, taking out his Ultima.

"Alright, let's open up this chest." Grodus said as he walked to it, but then he was suddenly impaled by Xemnas' Etheral Blades, as everyone's eyes widened in shock.

"ARGH...Xemnas...wh-what is the MEANING of this?!" Grodus exclaimed.

"I only teamed up with you, so I can have the chest all to myself." Xemnas told him.

"I knew it." Kairi said.

"Y-you traitor..." Grodus said as Xemnas removed the blade, as he fell to the ground, dead.

"Now that loser is out of the way." Xemnas said as he walked past Peach and Kairi, he opened up the chest.

Darkness shot out of the chest. "This is it, the moment we have been waiting for." Xemnas said as everyone else looked at it in shock.

Meanwhile...

Toadsworth was walking around Rogueport when suddenly, the sky turned dark, alarming everybody. "I say, what is the meaning of this?" He asked.

Petalburg

"Uh, what's with that shadow in the sky?" Koopie Koo asked as the darkness passed him.

"Is it nap time already?" Kroop asked.

The Great Tree

"It's sure a beautiful day out here." The Elder said, and then the darkness passed them. "What just happened?"

"Punio...hold me." Petuni said as Punio nodded.

Glitzville

Rawk Hawk was on a lawn chair, getting a tan. "Once I find that turtle guy, I'll rawk him." He said, and then...it got dark. "Alright, what's the big idea?"

"This is odd..." Jolene said

Back with them...

A hand came out of the chest and then another, as a demon came out of the chest. "Who awakens me?" She asked.

"Oh great Shadow Queen, I have provided two girls for you to possess." Xemnas said.

"Hmm, the blonde one looks good." She said as she lowered to Peach.

"N-no! WAIT! NOOOOOOOOOOO!" Peach yelled.

"PEACH!" Mario yelled, and then a sudden great earthquake happened.

Twilight Town

"WE'RE GONNA DIE!" A Twilighter exclaimed.

"I KNEW I SHOULDN'T HAVE EATEN THAT PIECE OF BACON!" Another yelled.

Keelhaul Key

"PA-PATCH! HOLD ME!" A Toad yelled.

"I DON'T HAVE HANDS, YOU IDIOT!" Pa-Patch exclaimed.

Poshley Heights

"WHOOOOOA!" Bub exclaimed.

"This may look like the end..." Goldbob said.

Fahr Outpost

The earthquake slowed down and then stopped. "Well what the heck was THAT about?" A Bob-omb asked.

"I have NO clue." The mayor said.

The OTHER Twilight Town

"What the heck was that all about?" Roxas asked as they were getting another Sea-Salt Ice Cream.

"No idea." Lea said.

"GUYS!" Xion yelled, seeing tons of Heartless popping up.

"Oh great..." Roxas muttered, as they took out their weapons.

Back in the Palace of Shadow...

"What was that earthquake?" Frankly asked, and this his eyes widened. "Oh no...don't tell me..." He said.

"Well well, I do look rather interesting." Peach said, admiring her new look.

"Now, Shadow Queen. Let's take over the world...together." Xemnas said.

"I'm sorry, but are you ordering me?" Peach asked.

"Yeah, I am." Xemnas said.

"Um, no...I do NOT appreciate you ordering me around." Peach said.

"Don't make me put you back in that chest." Xemnas said, taking out his Etheral Blades.

"Not a chance." Peach said, as she suddenly fired electricity, as he yelled in pain. Peach stopped firing electricity as Xemnas faded away from it.

"Whoa...that happened." Yoshi said.

"P-Peach?" Kairi asked.

"I'm not the Peach you know. She's gone forever." She told her, as Kairi's eyes widened.

"Shadow Queen!" A voice said as Beldam and Marilyn popped up from underground while Doopliss walked through the door and was next to Beldam. "You look lovelier than ever, my queen." Beldam said.

"Why thank you." Peach smiled as she looked at Kairi. "You know, I COULD have a minion." She smirked as she put her hand right on Kairi's shoulder.

Suddenly, a bright light shone bright, as Peach yelped in pain and she pulled her hand back. "I don't believe it, that idiot gave me a Princess of Pure Heart? Not even MY darkness could pierce through her!" She exclaimed as Kairi ran off and back to Sora, as the two embraced.

"Shadow Queen, release her RIGHT now." Mario ordered.

"You kidding? This body is freaking incredible." Peach said.

"Then you leave us no choice." Mario said, taking out his Ultra Hammer.

"Try as you like, but you won't defeat me." Peach smirked.

Shadow Queen Phase 1 (Paper Mario: The Thousand Year Door)

Sora ran over to Peach and slashed her, but Peach quickly dodged. "Ah, a Keyblade." She said, avoiding a Firaga from him.

Kairi shed a tear, as she took out her Destiny's Embrace. "Peach...forgive me..." She said as she raised her Keyblade. "THUNDER!" She yelled, as Thundaga struck down on Peach.

"Hmph, lucky hit." Peach said as she raised her finger and fired a lightning bolt at Kairi, but she quickly dodged the attack...and then it hit Goombella.

"OH COME ON!" Goombella yelled as Koops spun in his shell and launched to Peach.

Peach held out her leg and then kicked Koops back. "Nice try." She said as she noticed Lightning running to her and slashed her, but she dodged. "So close." She said, as she kicked Lightning in the back.

Mario ran over to Peach with his Ultra Hammer as he swung his hammer, but stopped, the hammer inches from her face, a tear running down his cheek. "Oh?" Peach raised her eyebrow as she took the Ultra Hammer and swung at Mario, blasting him several feet and then tossing it to the side.

"What was THAT about?!" Yoshi asked.

"I couldn't do it..." Mario said. "Not after when we dated for a such a long time."

"Dude, Peach is LONG gone! This is the only way to get her back." He said.

Vivian used Fiery Jinx on Peach and then put her hand on Mario's shoulder. "I know it's hard...but we have no choice right now." She said.

Sora used Strike Raid, but Peach matrix dodged it as she got up. "That the best you can do?" She asked, but the Keyblade came back and struck her from behind. "You clever sneak." She said, as she fired lightning bolts at him, as he was blasted in the air.

"SORA!" Kairi yelled as she used Curaga on him and she slashed Peach, but Peach grabbed the Destiny's Embrace.

"Nice try." She said as she kicked Kairi down and tossed the Keyblade to the side as she walked to her.

"Don't even think about it!" Donald exclaimed, using Firaga on her, but Peach held her hand out, as the fireball hit her hand.

"Hmph." Peach said as she continued walking to Kairi. "Now, time to end you." She said.

"I DON'T THINK SO!" A voice yelled as Peach was suddenly launched in the air, as Peach looked to see Lightning right above her with the Destiny's Embrace, as she finished the Aerial Slam.

"OOOF!" Peach yelled as Lightning landed, giving Kairi back the Keyblade.

"Thanks..." Kairi said, wondering who she was.

"Lightning." She said as Kairi nodded.

Peach got up, glaring at Lightning. "You...MESSED WITH THE WRONG QUEEN!" She yelled as she suddenly glowed, as the Shadow Queen came out of Peach's body. "Let's see what your attacks do NOW!" She smirked.

"FREEZE!" Sora yelled, using Blizzaga, but once it hit Shadow Queen, it did nothing.

"Oh? Did you attack?" Shadow Queen asked. "You gotta try harder."

"Why you..." Sora said.

Yoshi picked up Bobbery as he ran towards her and threw him, as Bobbery exploded in front of Shadow Queen's face. "HAHAHA! IS THAT THE BEST YOU CAN DO?!" She exclaimed as she charged up.

"That didn't do it?!" Bobbery exclaimed.

Mario picked up the Ultra Hammer as he ran straight to her and then hammered Shadow Queen, but that didn't do a thing.

"Hmph, now it's my turn." Shadow Queen said. "DARK WAVE!" She yelled, as a humongous shockwave hit everyone, blasting them away.

"It's...no good..." Sora said.

"Do you understand my power now?" Shadow Queen asked with a smirk. "Now, it's time to end you once and for all." She said, but suddenly, she stopped moving. "What?! What is the meaning of this?!" She exclaimed, as the Crystal Stars suddenly appeared. "Oh no..."

"The...Crystal Stars...?" Mario asked as the Crystal Stars flew off.

In Rogueport, a bright light surrounded a small execution thing as the Crystal Stars appeared and surrounded it, and then they all flew off.

The Crystal Stars (Paper Mario: The Thousand Year Door)

The first Crystal Star flew over to Petalburg, which caught their attention. "What's the Crystal Star doing here?" Koopie Koo asked.

"Wait a darn second, is that Murphy and friends taking on a weird demon thing?" Kroop asked.

"Hey! Koops! Give that demon thing a piece of my mind!" Koopley ordered.

The second Crystal Star landed in front of the punis.

"YIKES! That's a scary thing!" Punio exclaimed.

"That Marty-O and Sarah are fighting that thing? Well let's root for them!" The Elder ordered.

"FLURRIE! KICK THAT THING'S BUTT!" Petuni yelled.

The third one landed at Glitzville. "GONZALES! RAWK THAT DEMON! NO ONE IS ALLOWED TO RAWK YOU AFTER WHAT YOU DID TO ME IN THE RING!" Rawk Hawk ordered.

"Don't lose this fight, Mario!" Jolene exclaimed.

The fourth one landed at Twilight Town. "GO GO GO! KICK THAT DEMON'S BUTT INTO THE NEXT CENTURY!" A Twilighter exclaimed.

"I'm rooting for Vivian! She's the cutest one and I do NOT want her to die!" A Twilighter said.

The fifth one went all the way to Keelhaul Key. "BOBBERY! I may not be captain, but I am ORDERING YOU TO NOT LOSE TO HER!" Pa-Patch exclaimed.

"GO LIGHTNING!" A Toad exclaimed.

The sixth one landed at Poshley Heights. "Oh dear, Mario and Sora...they're in trouble!" Toodles exclaimed.

"The Great Gonzales and The Keyblade Mastermind NEVER lose!" Goldbob exclaimed.

"Mario and Sora? Great Gonzales and Keyblade Mastermind? NOT Luigi and Roxas?" Pennington asked in confusion.

The mayor of Fahr Outpost looked at the dark sky. "MAYOR! We're all set up." A Bob-omb said.

"Good." The Mayor said as they walked to the area.

"Alright, on three!" General White ordered. "One...two...THREE!"

"YOU CAN DO IT GUYS!" All the Bob-ombs yelled at the same time right in front of the last Crystal Star.

"What is going ON?!" Shadow Queen exclaimed.

"This is weird..." Doopliss said.

"They're rooting for us..." Sora said, smiling a tear escaped from his eye.

"This is beautiful..." Yoshi said.

"Mario..." A voice said as Peach suddenly appeared in front of the Shadow Queen. "I am giving you guys the last of my strength." She said, as the Crystal Stars reappeared as they surrounded the group.

Peach held out her hand ahile the Crystal Stars glowed, as they all fully healed and their energy was back up and running. "Good...bye..." Peach said as she disappeared.

"YOU MEDDLESOME PRINCESS!" Shadow Queen yelled as the Crystal Stars surrounded Shadow Queen as they shone bright, and then she screamed in pain as they went back inside Mario's pocket.

"This ends here, Shadow Queen." Sora said.

Shadow Queen Phase 2 (Paper Mario: The Thousand Year Door)

Shadow Queen glared at them as she charged up. "This will finish you."

"That's what you think..." Sora said. "GIVE ME STRENGTH!" He yelled as he changed his final form as he flew over straight to her and slashed her.

"No...HOW IS IT THAT YOU CAN HURT ME?! ...Of course...THOSE CRYSTAL STARS!" Shadow Queen yelled.

"Now we're talking!" Yoshi said as he picked up Bobbery and threw him to Shadow Queen, as he exploded.

"ARGH...ALRIGHT..." Shadow Queen said. "DARK WAVE!" She yelled.

They all quickly dodged the attacks as Kairi jumped up and used Strike Raid while Lightning used Firaga on her.

Mario ran over to Shadow Queen and hammered her really hard as Vivian used Fiery Jinx right on her.

"DON'T UNDERESTIMATE ME!" Shadow Queen yelled as two hands suddenly appeared as they went over and attempted to slap Mario and Vivian, but Vivian sunk underground while Mario backflipped.

Vivian reappeared behind Shadow Queen and punched her from behind.

Kairi and Lightning both had the same idea as they both used Blizzaga on the ground, which made Mario take out an Ice Flower, as he started ice skating.

Goofy threw his shield to the ice as Kairi landed on the shield as she started turning the shield and then hit Shadow Queen with her Keyblade out while Sora used Ragnarock.

"No...NO...I will...NOT LOSE...TO YOU!" Shadow Queen yelled.

"Shall we finish her off?" Mario asked, turning back to normal.

"Oh yeah, way ahead of you." Sora said.

Mario's Ice Flower powerup went away as he closed his eyes. "CRYSTAL STAR: SUPERNOVA!" He yelled as the Crystal Star came flying out while he started to glow.

Sora land as he pointed his Metal Chocobo Keyblade as Kairi was next to him and pointed her Destiny's Embrace at Shadow Queen while Lightning ran over with her Gunblade out.

"MARIO FINALE!" Mario yelled.

"GIVE ME STRENGTH!" They both yelled as they both used Ragnarock at the same time.

"TAKE THIS!" Lightning yelled as she slashed through using Zantetsuken.

"AAAAAAAAAAAH! HOW CAN THIS HAPPEN TO ME?!" Shadow Queen yelled as the two Ragnarock's and Mario's Final Smash hit her...and then the Crystal Star was done, as the Supernova finished her off.

"AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAARGH!" Shadow Queen yelled, as her whole body started to disappear, as Peach was starting to turn back to normal, and then she fell to the ground.

"Peach!" Mario exclaimed as he ran over to her.

Dearly Beloved (Kingdom Hearts)

Sora turned back to normal as he and Kairi went over to Peach.

"Peach?" Mario said, looking at her.

Peach suddenly coughed as she opened her eyes. "Mario...?" She asked.

"I'm here." Mario smiled.

Peach smiled as she got up and kissed Mario and then hugged him, while STILL having their lips locked.

"Sora..." Kairi said.

"Huh?" Sora turned to Kairi as she hugged him, and then pressed her lips against his.

"Awww..." Goofy said as he and Donald started to chuckle at this.

"Well how about that?" Lightning smiled as Frankly walked in.

"Oh good, you managed to beat the demon!" Frankly smiled.

"It was...one heck of a battle. But it's all over now." Goombella said.

"Well come on, let's go back to my place." Frankly said as they all started to walk back to his place.

"Um...Vivian..." Beldam said.

Vivian turned her head to Beldam, giving her a serious death glare. "Hmph." She said as she went off with the others.

"...Awkward..." Doopliss said.

This WOULD be the final chapter...but what about Luigi?
