Chapter 17: Doctor Eggman's Boomsday Machine
(Doctor Eggman's Galaxy Fortress)
Mario, Luigi, Yoshi, Kirby, Sonic, and Ty arrived at the front entrance, but there looked to be no way of entering through the front. Even stranger was there were the Toad Brigade quivering in fear under the wreckage of the Megahammer.
Mario- Hey guys. Mind if I ask what you're doing?
Blue Toad- This…robot thing looks like it could reactivate at any second! YIKES!
Then they saw Captain Toad standing next to what was left of its cannons.
Captain Toad- It's okay. See, it's broken.
Captain Toad spoke too soon, because the cannon he was standing next to suddenly launched a Bullet Bill. Sonic managed to get Captain Toad to safety before the Bullet Bill could hit him.
Sonic- You were saying?
Captain Toad- Sorry.
Mario and Luigi saw a cannon underneath a glass case on the other side of the platform they were on.
Mario- Luigi, I think we can use that cannon to go above the entrance gate.
Luigi- But it has that thick glass case. How are we going to break it?
Suddenly, Robobot stepped out from behind a bush, scanned the wreckage of the Megahammer's cannon, and turned into Bomb Robobot. Then Bomb Robobot threw a bomb at the glass and shattered it.
Kirby- You brought Robobot with you?
Yellow Toad- ZZZ…Robobot…protect us…ZZZ…
Mail Toad- Yellow Toad is right. We thought Robobot would make a good bodyguard.
Blue Toad- However, he's still malfunctioning a bit from when he tried to move as fast as Sonic.
Ty- Well maybe it's a good thing he's here. Robobot did shatter the glass blocking the cannon.
Kirby- Ok, but I don't want to risk anything happening to him again. Robobot, you stay here and make sure the Toad Brigade doesn't get into trouble. Can you do that for me?
The Robobot nodded its head at Kirby.
Sonic- Hope you know how to aim this thing or we could end up lost in the void of space.
Luigi- Mario and I have used cannons like this before.
(On top of the entrance)
Orbot and Cubot were acting as look-outs while two Boomerang Bros. were carrying a large billboard with Eggman's logo on it.
Orbot- I wonder why the doctor needs to have that plastered above the main gate of the Galaxy Fortress.
Cubot- You once told me it's best not to question the boss' motives. And he's still mad about us taking his Egg Roller for a joyride and then losing a Power Star to Sonic.
Orbot- I suppose you're right for once, Cubot.
Cubot- Hey, I think I see a group of Toads down there.
Orbot- Where?
Cubot- Over there next to that big robot that almost looks like Kirby.
Orbot- Oh shit…
Before Orbot and Cubot could do anything else, Mario, Luigi, Yoshi, Kirby, Sonic, and Ty fired themselves out of the cannon and crashed into the billboard.
Kirby- …ow…
Sonic- Luigi…I think you need to work on your aim…
Then the six of them fell off the billboard and onto the floor of the gate they tried to fly over.
Orbot- God damn it! It's Sonic!
Cubot- And the Mario Brothers' Team!
As Mario and the others were getting themselves back up, they noticed Orbot and Cubot.
Sonic- I see you got off the Boulder Bowl Galaxy.
Orbot- You two Boomerang Bros.! Deal with these intruders!
Cubot- In the meantime, we'll run for our lives…
Orbot slapped Cubot in the face.
Cubot- …I mean, warn the boss!
Then Orbot and Cubot dashed away like crazy. The two Boomerang Bros. threw their boomerangs at them, but Kirby inhaled them and turned into Cutter Kirby.
Cutter Kirby- POYO!
Then Cutter Kirby threw his blade at the two Boomerang Bros. and knocked them out.
Luigi- Almost thought you would turn into Boomerang Kirby.
Cutter Kirby- I don't have a boomerang Copy Ability, Luigi.
(In another part of the Galaxy Fortress)
Mario, Luigi, Yoshi, Cutter Kirby, Sonic, and Ty landed on this floating platform after launching themselves on the star pad. However, once they landed, they noticed a tall machine that almost looked like a castle tower standing in the middle of the platform. And standing on the top of it was none other than Doctor Eggman.
Eggman- Hohohoho! If it isn't my favorite little pincushion, Sonic. And I see you brought along some of the other Mario stodges with you.
Sonic- Listen up, Bauldy McNosehair! Just hand over the Mystic Talisman, Chaos Emerald, and Grand Power Star and we won't kick your ass!
Eggman- No can do, Sonic. You see, Bowser will be very pissed at me if I let you retards take them from me. But since you're all here, allow me to show you my latest invention. I'm afraid it's Boomsday for you all! Hohohoho!
Then the cockpit hatch closes and the Boomsday machine activated. On the ground, it produced three large and long flame bars that began rotating around the Boomsday machine. And those flame bars stretched almost completely across the platform, so Mario and the others had to constantly jump over them every few seconds. And on the upper part of its body was a cannon shooting electric balls at Mario and the others.
Ty- Mario, we're getting nowhere, fast!
Mario- If only we had one of my power-up items!
Then Tails called on the communicator.
Tails- Ask and you shale receive. Sending you some cloud flowers. Hope those will help.
Then a few cloud flowers appeared and Mario, Luigi, Sonic, and Ty turned into Cloud Mario, Cloud Luigi, Cloud Sonic, and Cloud Ty.
Eggman- I can't believe I'm saying this, but you look even more ridicules in that cloud costume, Sonic!
Yoshi- Mario's, one problem.
Cutter Kirby- Your power-up items don't work on me and Yoshi.
Cloud Luigi- Well, you have your Cutter ability.
Cloud Mario- Besides, I have a plan. If we can get above Eggman, we might be able to attack him.
Cloud Sonic- Think you can keep old egghead busy for us?
Yoshi- Yoshi do!
Eggman was laughing at Mario and the others when an egg hit the windshield of the cockpit.
Eggman- What the?
After Eggman removed the egg from the windshield, he saw Yoshi and Cutter Kirby sticking their butts at him.
Eggman- Think you can make a fool of me, do you?!
Then Eggman began firing more of those electric balls at Yoshi and Cutter Kirby. Little did he notice, Cloud Mario, Cloud Luigi, Cloud Sonic, and Cloud Ty riding a cloud using one of the fans in the corner of the platform to go higher above and behind Eggman. Once they were high enough, they jumped off the cloud and stomped on the glass covering the cockpit Eggman was in, causing it to crack.
Eggman- No! What have you fools done?!
The Boomsday machine began to spark a bit and it acted like it took a lot of damage.
Eggman- Oh, you're all playing with fire now! You think I wouldn't one last surprise to show you?
Then the Doomsday machine rose the rest of its body out of the ground, revealing a set of spiked treds which also made it mobile.
Cloud Mario- This could complicate things a bit.
The Boomsday machine tried to run them over, but Mario and the others managed to dodge. Cloud Luigi and Cloud Ty tried to create another cloud over one of the fans behind Doctor Eggman. However, Eggman drove the Boomsday machine right at them. Cloud Luigi and Cloud Ty jumped off the cloud before Eggman could run it over, but now they were back on the ground.
Eggman- Thought your little trick could work again? Well you thought wrong! I've thought of everything this time, Sonic! I'm way too high up for you to attack me! And not only is this baby armed to the teeth, it's mobile! Hohohoho!
Then Eggman kept firing. But he was so focused on shooting more of those electric balls, he didn't notice the computer trying to warn him that a Chaos Emerald got loose from the system after that last attack it took. The cannons kept firing until something was jamming it.
Eggman- Come on you hunk of junk! I said FIRE!
Eggman pushed the fire button again, but out of the cannon came the white Chaos Emerald.
Eggman- Is that the…
Cloud Sonic- The Chaos Emerald!
Then Cloud Sonic quickly dashed over and grabbed it before Eggman could.
Eggman- You think just because you have the emerald that you can stop me?
Cloud Sonic- I don't think. I know I can! You see, I brought along the other six with me!
Then the other six Chaos Emeralds appeared and orbited around Cloud Sonic. Then Cloud Sonic was engulfed by a bright light and he turned into Super Sonic.
Eggman- Oh no! This can't be happening!
Then Super Sonic dashed through the glass covering the cockpit and pretty much through the entire Boomsday machine, causing it to blow up. After the explosion, Eggman was in his hover craft with Orbot and Cubot riding with him. Super Sonic was now holding the Mystic Talisman that had a picture of a lizard on it and the Grand Power Star.
Eggman- **** you, Sonic!
Super Sonic- You've lost this battle, Eggman.
Eggman- Maybe, but the Galaxy Generator is almost fully charged. Once it is, it will create an explosion so great, it will cause the universe to start all over again! And we'll recreate it in our own image! Let's go you two idiots.
Cubot- But won't Bowser be…
Then Eggman punched Cubot in the face and knocked him out before he could finish that sentence.
Orbot- Oh dear…
Then Eggman flies away in his hover craft.
(At Bowser's Galaxy Generator)
Bowser was still inside that machine Eggman put him in earlier and Eggman, King DeDeDe, and Boss Cass were standing outside of it.
Boss Cass- And you lost to them?
Eggman- Yes…
King DeDeDe- And now they have your Grand Power Star, all the Chaos Emeralds, and all the Mystic Talismans?
Eggman- …yes…
Boss Cass- Shit! Bowser will probably be really pissed when comes out of there.
Then King DeDeDe looked at the computer and there was a warning that said overload.
King DeDeDe- Eggman, what does this mean?
Eggman- Oh ****! We have to get him out of there or…
Suddenly, the machine began shaking like crazy and eventually, a giant Bowser busted from the machine.
Bowser- (ROAR) I feel incredible!
Eggman- Bowser, you took way more Star Power than you were supposed to take.
Bowser- So what? Now I have all the power I need to crush Mario even if he comes at me with another surprise! I also know you ****ing failed me like Boss Cass and DeDeDe have. No matter. So what if they have all seven Chaos Emeralds and all five Mystic Talismans! My plan is nearly complete and there will be nothing Mario can do to stop me!
(Back on the Luma Starship)
Mario, Luigi, Yoshi, Kirby, Sonic, and Ty returned with the Grand Power Star.
Lubba- That's the fifth Grand Power Star! I knew you all could do it! And you've gathered all of your emeralds and talismans back too.
Then Tails and Sly ran up to them.
Tails- You got our Chaos Emeralds back?!
Sonic- Sure did, Tails! Turned Super Sonic and sent Eggman flying!
Sly- Guess we should tell Nandu Gili we got the Talismans back.
Ty- Not just yet. I feel we might need their power for Bowser.
Lubba- Good idea, because this is the last warp jump before we finally reach where the Bowser monster took your special one.
Kirby- Did Robobot make it back yet?
Tails- Yes, Kirby. Robobot and the Toad Brigade arrived shortly before you did.
Kirby- That's good to hear.
Mario- Alright everyone, Let-a-GOOOO!
Then the Luma Starship dashed into the vortex.
