Rainbow Mario

Power-ups are what Mario needs to defeat Bowser and his minions. From throwing fireballs with the Fire Flower, to skating on ice with the Ice Flower, Mario needs them whenever evil strikes.

One day, Mario was reading his favorite book when suddenly, he saw a floating star waiting outside. Mario smiled to himself and said, "Wow! There is a star floating outside. I wonder which power-up I'll be receiving when I touch it. Well, let's go outside."

So Mario ran outside to see this amazing item.

When he got there, he saw a star with many colors. This is the Rainbow Star. Mario smiled to himself and said, "Wow! It's a Rainbow Star. I love this power-up and if I touch it, I'll grant my new power. Well, time to power up and transform. Rainbow Star, grant me your power!"

With the words shouted, Mario touched the Rainbow Star and then, it absorbed its energy as the star vanished. Mario closed his eyes as the star finished absorbing its energy and then the light surrounded him, signaling his transformation.

After a few seconds, the transformation is now finished. Mario opened his eyes and then, he is covered in a rainbow of colors. Mario has powered up to his new form, Rainbow Mario.

"Wow! I'm Rainbow Mario!" Mario said in delight, "This is my new power that the Rainbow Star gave me and with this new power, I can defeat Bowser and not only that, I'm also invincible! Time to test it out. Let's run!"

So Mario decided to run on his favorite racing track Mario Circuit and then, he took off, leaving a rainbow trail on the track. Mario ran as fast as he could as the Rainbow Star theme began to play. After forty seconds, the effect starts to wear off. Mario looked at himself and said, "My power is almost gone but, I can still run. Just a few more steps."

And then, the Rainbow Star's power has worn off, reverting Mario back to his normal form. Mario looked at his red and blue overalls and said, "Well, that was fun. My Rainbow Star's time is already up and I'm back to normal. I guess this power-up is very helpful whenever I need it the most but for now, let's go get some lunch."

So Mario walked all the way back to Toad Town for a nice lunch.

After a great lunch, Mario heard the cry for help. He saw Peach being captured by Bowser as Mario said, "That's Peach and she's in trouble! Looks like Bowser is up to no good again and this time, he's going down! Time to defeat him! Rainbow Star, grant me the power to transform to Rainbow Mario!"

And then, the Rainbow Star came to him and Mario powered up once again to Rainbow Mario. Mario smiled with determination and said, "Let's go!"

And then, he went off again.
