Mario was doing his usual jogging around the small, peaceful village of Great mariotain, whistling his own theme as he past by Birdo's house. He stopped in his tracks, however, sniffing the air, and licking his lips together with glee. He could sense the delicious syrup nearby. It was only one thing that the red-capped Italian plumber could describe that was crunchy and soft, and he knew EXACTLY what it was...

...

Waffles. Loads of them.

"Oh boy, oh boy, oh boy!" Mario clamored with glee, rushing over to where the scent of the waffles were. Interestingly enough, they were coming from the lab of Dr. Hoshi, who was making himself a rather large breakfast.

Smacking is lips together and thinking with his stomach rather than his head, Mario grabbed out his POW Hammer and smashed the door down, tossing the hammer away and rushing into the kitchen, grabbing Dr. Hoshi and laughing maniacally. Dr. Hoshi sweatdropped, inching away from mario as much as he could as he managed to get out of his grip.

"Uhhh, Mario, are you... feeling okay...?" Dr. Hoshi hesitantly asked, noticing the look of hunger in Mario's eyes.

Mario nodded, saliva dripping from his mouth onto the floor. "Where... where are they? The waffles... THE WAFFLES!!" He started laughing maniacally again as thunder boomed loudly, white lightning suddenly zapping in the background.

Dr. Hoshi slapped his forehead, and sighed. "He's in one of his moods again..." Sighing, Dr. Hoshi grabbed an empty plate and placed several golden waffles on it, topping them with delicious, sweet maple syrup. handing it to Mario, Dr. Hoshi pointed at the door in the hallway and shouted, "All right, here's your waffles. Now please leave my laboratory and precious home..."

Slamming the door on the red-capped Italian plumber's face, Dr. Hoshi sighed as he wiped his forehead, muttering to himself, "Sheesh, that was close. Now, where was it..."

BAM!! The door slammed open, and there was Mario, smiling with a daze look in his eyes. Dr. Hoshi moaned as he shook his head, his hand over his face. Sighing, he turned around to face Mario, asking why he came back all of a sudden. Mario merely smiled, letting out a little chuckle as he meekly muttered quietly...

"More."

Dr. Hoshi narrowed his eyes, pushing the red-capped Italian plumber away from his home. "Mario, you already had enough waffles. Go back to your-"

"MMMMMMMOOOOOORRRRRREEEEEEEE!!" Mario roared as he grabbed Dr. Hoshi and started shaking him, smashing him into the floor as he ran into the kitchen, gobbling down as much waffles as he could, drinking down lots and lots of maple syrup, laughing his head off maniacally as he had a bizarre look in his eyes, his mind being polluted by the tons of sugar entering in. Dr. Hoshi moaned weakly as his left foot twitched, barely able to get back up.
