Mario was reading some of his many game magazines, one ironically being about Mario Kart Wii. As he read, the ground around him began to shake a bit. Putting the magazine down briefly, Mario turned around, and scratched his head. Shrugging, he resumed reading the magazine, muttering to himself as he looked at the tier listings of the characters and vehicles. Reading past the tiers and looking at the tips for several of the Wii courses, the house shook again. Putting down the magazine briefly again, Mario's left eye twitched as he remained skeptic.
"What keeps shaking the place...?" Mario muttered quietly to himself as he tried to read, until the doo bursted down, causing him to look up. Much to the red-capped Italian American plumber's horror, it was something he did not expect and wished never to exist...
...
The winged spiny Blue Shell.
"No.... no no no no no no! NOOOOOO!!!!" Mario screamed in horror as he chucked the magazine away and ran for his life, only to be blasted by the Blue Shell, causing his entire house to explode and collapse on itself as he was knocked unconscious. Nearby, sinister laughter could be heard within the bushes that were to the left of what remained left of Mario's house.
