Chapter Fourty-Two: Beyond The Void

Mario watched as the large, wooden door opened in front of him. Red eyes shone from inside it and dark claws lept at him, pulling him inside. He felt the darkness consume his body as he entered this demonic place. Mario felt his eyes open slowly, and gasped. The sun shone in front of his eyes. He looked down and saw grass beneath his feet, which were bare. He looked up into the caring eyes of Yoshi. The green reptile picked him up and put Mario on his back. Mario looked down at his hands in surprise and saw that they were only one-fourth the size they had been previously. He looked down into a puddle and saw his own reflection. He was a baby. No thick hairs came from his upper lip, and his eyes were large and knowing.

They looked curious. Curious baby eyes, all ready to find out about the world, searching for some purpose. Mario yawned as his little tongue stretched out of his mouth. He must have dreamed it all. All his worries? All his fears? Just a simple dream. He smiled as he nodded at the simplicity of this.

The Yoshi smiled as he craned his head to look at the baby. "Hello, Mario. You ready to go fast?" the Yoshi asked calmly.

"WIDE! WIDE!" Mario shouted in his baby voice, giggling and smiling as the Yoster started off. He rushed down the open meadows as Mario grinned, feeling the wind in his cuticles rush down his back. The green Yoster flew across the plains as Mario laughed with childly glee. The Yoshi entered the thick forest and leaped above a tall branch. He landed on it and jumped to another branch. Mario leaped off, and jumped to the next branch before crouching and jumping again. He had been taught well by the Yoshis, and was very acrobatic. Mario motioned for the dino to follow the child, and he did. Mario jumped onto a leaf and bounced high into the air before landing in the canopy bellow.

Yoshi fell down with the boy and the two bounced before coming to a stop. Yoshi nuzzled the boy's face as Mario chuckled, petting the Yoster's rough yet smooth head. Yoshi reached out his long tongue and licked the boy as he giggled. Mario's hat fell to the canopy bed as they stopped frolicking. Yoshi must have sensed something as he began to growl. The air picked up slightly. It blew in Mario's face and he felt uneasy. This wasn't the same gentle wind he had felt oh so many times before. This wind was menacing, and it sent daggers at his face. It also grew deathly cold. Mario could see his own breath as shivers traveled up and down his spine.

The wind grew vicious, rocking the canopy that they rested upon. The sky grew dark as it turned red. Lightning flashed from above as a shadow enveloped them. They looked up to see a massive object looming over them like death. It was a large, metal structure. It had two twin turbines jutting out from behind it and flame expelling from the back. The metal was coated in blue spikes that twinkled, with hints of red. The top was completely red with a large window and on the side there were two cannon-like objects that were obviously weapons. There was a look of horror upon Yoshi's face as he looked at the insignia. It was a massive shape that was a large green orb with red hair, and horns that gleamed.

Mario picked up Yoshi's expression and tears ran down his eyes. He started to bawl as Yoshi clenched his teeth. He picked Mario up, and put him on his back. Yoshi bounced high into the air, and started to run like mad back towards Mario's house. The green dino jumped from branch to branch in pursuit of Mario's house. The Yoshi made it out of the forest. Yoshi's Island was in flames. Everywhere the orange and red fire coated the land in a destructive grasp. From high above a large creature fell from the sky. It was a large, armored thing, a Koopa in heavy metal armor. He held a large spear over his shoulder and pointed at them.

Yoshi growled and bashed his head into the warrior's chest plate. It fell to the ground and Yoshi leaped over it. The dinosaur outran the beast before it could catch them. Yoshi searched desperately for Mario's house inside the constant wall of flames. Explosions sounded all around the two. A tall tree from above cracked apart and fell to the ground. Yoshi jumped out of the way just in time, keeping himself and Mario still intact. The fire roared behind them, and they finally found Mario's house. Flames poured from the open windows. Mario's father was grimacing as he stood to protect his wife.

"Get away from here, you monsters...." Mario's father said, growling.

"Heheheheheheheh... Very amusing... So you think you can actually stand up to me?" a figure said, stepping from the darkness.

"WHO ARE YOU?!" Yoshi roared.

"Allow me to introduce myself....I am the advisor to King Morton," he said with a grin.

"Leave this place! Don't come back!" Yoshi said with fury inside him.

"I'm afraid I cannot. For I am Kamek," Kamek said.

Kamek rose his wand to the sky and shot a blast of shapes at Yoshi. He jumped into the air over it and produced an egg. He threw it with great force at the Magikoopa, and yolk splattered on the sorcerer. Kamek growled and a sphere of darkness appeared at the tip of his wand. Yoshi was hit with great force, and Mario fell to the ground. Kamek walked past Mario and stood over the Yoster.

"I'm much more powerful then you remember, fool," Kamek said.

The evil Magikoopa laughed and grabbed Yoshi by the neck. Yoshi punched him in the face and Kamek fell to the ground. Mario's mother ran out while Kamek was distracted and picked up her baby. Mario cried as his mother whispered soothing words to him. She wrapped him tight in a bundle and opened up a warp pipe in the ground. She kissed him on the forehead.

"I love you, Mario... please be safe," she said before letting the boy drop into the pipe. He screamed as he fell through the vast darkness coming up on all sides of him. Mario cried to himself as thoughts rushed by in his tiny mind. This wasn't real...

Mario's eyes opened. He looked around him and found rough ground below him. He looked at his reflection in some water. He was an adult again. It was all an illusion. An illusion of terrible atrocities that he only wished to forget.

He looked up into the sky of this place where he was. The sky was red, like that fateful day. Pillars of fire rocketed up from the ground. He was in a demonic plane, this was obvious to him, but he did not know where. The ground was cracked and a large bridge spread out in front of him over a seemingly endless abyss. Mario looked into the sky as blue lightning flashed above.

He walked forwards, intent on continuing his journey, wherever it might take him.

Chapter Fourty-Three: Lord of the Shade

A rush of purple fire spouted out from all sides of the chamber. The creature staggered out and glared at the others with a demonic fury. His long, red mane of fire trailed from behind his head. His twisted horns glinted and looked as if they could slice through steel like butter. Instead of his two fins, he had long hooks that curved slightly. His tail was long and made of fire and magma. Long, red scars decorated his belly as his long tongue slithered out. At the end of it was a large, jagged blade that hung down menacingly.

His eyes burned with fury and hatred. His red hair flowed faster and he turned towards Slimer and Mewtwo90. The two of them looked at each other nervously. The room radiated with power as the Boo in the chair laughed. His glasses slightly drooped to the right as he grinned, showing his razor sharp fangs in approval of this creature that had just been reborn. His long, black robe flapped in the created breeze and his glasses glinted. He stuck out his long tongue into the air, as If tasting victory.

"MWAHAHAHAHA!!! I AM LORD OF THE SHADE!!!" The Demonic Boo's roar filled the air with a terrible rippling. Down from the darkness bellow, a blue lightning bolt crashed to the ground and another figure appeared. It was a green Boo. He had one black eye and one red eye. He had a golden fang next to his plain, ordinary fang. He wore a long, black robe just like the Boo in the chair. Franze turned to the new figure.

"Ahhh... So good of you to come, Xtharue..." Franze said, grinning.

"And so good to be here," Xtharue replied. He smiled, showing his fangs.

"Now, Venom. Kill these interlopers!" Franze bellowed.

"With pleasure, my followers," Venom said snarling.

Venom rushed at the two idiotic heroes. Slimer was taken by surprise as two long fangs just grazed his shoulder as he jumped out of the way. Slimer whipped out his PBB and smiled.

"If It's a fight you want, so be it," Slimer said.

"MWAHAHAHA!!! You fools think you have a chance against me?" Venom asked.

"Well, we're going to try for DAD's sake," Slimer replied. With that he fired his PBB at the large Boo, the explosions rocking the demon's body and sending him into the wall.

"Wretch," Venom murmured. The Boo stabbed his two hook claws into one another, releasing demon blood across the ground. A circle of magic energy appeared in the air and it fired at Slimer. Slimer screamed in pain as the symbol's energy surged up and down his body. Slimer puked blood before collapsing to the ground. He growled and got up into a sitting position. He pulled out his sword of light energy and rushed forward, stabbing Venom. The Boo cried as the light energy pierced his demonic hide. Slimer retracted his sword and again stabbed him in the head. The Boo swung one of his hooks forward, just missing the Koopa. A green blur attracted his eye and he growled as a tail blade sunk deep into his shoulder.

Mewtwo90 pushed the demon backwards with his mind into the wall. The Boo got up slowly, and his eyes turned red. The alien tried to take control of Venom again, but a scorching pain flew throughout his entire body, and he was slammed into the ground. Slimer leaped forward and stuck his Magma Cannon into the center of the Boo's chest. He pulled the trigger and white hot magma erupted from the barrel of the gun. It seared right through the demon's body and out the other side, taking demon blood with it.

The Boo slammed its head forward and Slimer was pushed into the ground roughly. The shockwaves traveled all throughout his body as the Koopa gasped for breath. Venom's eyes twinkled purple, and a ray of dark energy pierced Slimer's back. He cried in pain, trying to get up.

"Now stay down. Normally I would kill you know, but I'm feeling generous today, so I will wait until I rule Plit. This way you will have a couple more hours to live," Venom said, cackling. He smashed Slimer over the head once more with his hook, to give the Koopa the message. The Boo crossed his hooks and the Koopa and alien disappeared. They reappeared on a cliff, overlooking Toad Town. They sighed, wondering how Bow was doing...

~

Bow crept slowly into the room. She saw the queen brushing her hair with an ornate comb. She was faced towards her mirror, so Bow assumed she couldn't see anything. She was in Queen Alexandria's palace and was getting ready to fight if she had to. Bow leaped upon the queen, sword raised. The queen had known she was there and tumbled on top of her. They wrestled and fell to the sand. They were in a large open arena.

"So... I guess this is it," Bow said, breathing heavily.

"Yes. So you are the new Heroine of Time? Interesting... Let's see how skilled you are." Alexandria drew her sword and pointed it at Bow. Bow cringed, yet drew her sword as well. The two rushed forwards, and blades met. Bow pushed forwards, trying to loosen the queen's grip. The queen unexpectantly pulled away and slashed at Bow. She shrieked as the blade tore away at her, and blood dripped from the wound. The sky above grew dark and lightning tore down from the sky. The queen looked up with great interest.

"Aaaah... So he breathes Plit's air once more..." Alexandria said distastefully.

"Who?" Bow asked angrily.

The queen laughed. "You are so uninformed, child..." she said. Bow rushed at the queen again, with malice. Alexandria slashed across with her blade, blocking Bow's strike. The princess jumped over and stabbed from the back. The queen was quick and blocked it. Then she jumped back and a long, green whip shot out from her sword, twisting toward Bow. The princess leaped out of the way as the green light collided with the ground, making a miniature explosion. Bow jumped into the air and brought her sword down. Alexandria countered and threw the princess off.

Bow gasped for breath as she tried to think of a way to penetrate the queen's defenses. Bow moved forward and slashed downward. Alexandria blocked it. Bow twirled away and slashed at her face. Blood trickled down the queen's face and she growled angrily. She stabbed forward towards Bow's stomach, but she jumped over and slashed from behind. She brought her blade back and blocked her back. Alexandria opened her mouth and flames billowed out and Bow slashed them away.

Bow moved forward, making short but powerful thrusts. The queen slashed each thrust away, grinning. She jumped into the air and produced another sword from seemingly nowhere and brought both of them down on the Boo princess in a cross formation. Boo rolled away and thrust forward but the queen blocked again. Bow backed the queen into a corner. The queen jumped high into the air and landed on a platform hanging from a wall. Bow followed steadily. They walked backwards while clashing blades.

They made it to the end of a plank of wood and Bow knocked the queen's sword away. Alexandria gasped as Bow's sword thrust forward and impaled her. Bow turned away, and pulled her sword from the corpse. Alexandria collapsed to the ground. The Boos that had been working looked up and saw their savior. They cheered for the heroine. The fang on her neck glowed and she disappeared. She landed on the ground and she felt dirt touch her face.

She got up and looked at her friends around her. Slimer and Mewtwo90 yelled wildly outside the house of the Mushroomers. Lights turned on.

"EVERYONE HAS TO EVACUATE! NOW!!!" Slimer called. A rock was tossed out the window that hit Slimer in the head. Slimer groaned as he stood up.

"SHUT UP, YOU LUNATICS!!! WE'RE TRYING TO SLEEP!!!" voices called. Slimer sighed.

"What's happening?" Bow asked.

"No time. We have to act fast," Slimer said, gritting his teeth.

~

Grodus sat upon his throne of steel, his eyes gleaming maliciously. His robes trailed down his back and his mighty scepter rested at his side. Lord Crump ran in front of him. His cape flowed behind him in the breeze.

"My lord. Should we send out the troops?" Crump asked.

"Yes. It is indeed time for war. SEND THEM NOW!!! LET ALL IN OUR PATH TREMBLE!!!" Grodus roared.

"And I will lead them with my Magnus X-terminator," Crump said.

With that the large drawbridge on the front of the ship opened up, revealing thousands of X-Nauts. They were everywhere, in different forms, shapes and sizes. And at the lead, was crump in Magnus. The chest plate was large with a big, black X on it. It was a red color, and had spikes jutting out of it. With a motion from Crump's robotic hand, the troops rushed out into Toad Town.

~

A Koopa sat on the ground. He was garbed in a long, black dress with intricate patterns on it. Large, blue flames were lit in every corner of the room, which illuminated him. It was the Shadow Queen. She had taken over the body of a young Koopa named Nick. His eyes were deathly black and glared into your soul. Three figures came from beneath the ground.

"Go now... kill them all," the queen said.

Behind the three Shadow Sirens, thousands of demons crawled out of the ground, fangs dripping blood. They burst from the old, abondoned site and out to ravish Toad Town.

~

The Shroob Princess sat upon her throne looking out at Toad Town. She laughed evilly as she drank from her goblet.

"COME NOW!!!" she roared.

Her army poured into the room. Shroobs covered the hall.

"NOW!!! GO!!! KILL THEM ALL!!!" the Shroob Princess yelled. Her army went out to Toad Town to start there rampage.

~

Slimer stared out at the destruction that was about to unfold with horror. The X-Nauts rushed forwards. The Shroobs came from the other side of town with a very powerful-looking Elder Shrooboid leading them. The inhabitants of Toad Town apparently finally believed Slimer and fled from their homes. A bolt of lightning crashed into the mix of alien creatures, blowing the group apart from each other. A rush of fire came and burned several. Ice came and froze troops in their places. The Shadow Sirens came from the ground, smug looks on their faces except Vivian. She looked strangely miserable. From behind them, demons of all shapes and sizes stampeded.

An Elite X-Naut rushed over to a tall creature with long tentacles and blue skin. One tentacle wrapped around the masked alien's body and tightened, until the bones snapped and the body exploded. Several X-Nauts growled and turned towards the demons. Crump jumped into the air and fired a cannon of immense power at the demons. The Shadow Sirens ducked underground, but others were not so lucky. They were torn apart by massive beams. The Shroob saucers hovered above the X-Nauts and fired beams of pink plasma down on their heads. The X-Nauts scattered. From their robes, they took out small potions and drank them. Almost immediately, they doubled or even tripled in size, strength, and speed.

One X-Naut barreled into a Doctor Shroob. Several moments later the enlarged Shroobs knocked the X-Nauts off of them, they had also grown with potions of their own. Several Shroob Rexes ran forward, bellowing insanely with great power. One Rex bit an X-Naut's head off. A demon from behind stabbed the alien dinosaur, and it fell to the ground. A wave of green fire came from behind, and a Boo was seen. He was wearing a long, black robe, and his hair was spiky and green. "HAHAHAHAHA!!!! FEAR XTHARUE!!!" the Boo said with a smile. Another wave of green fire cut across the battlefield slaying countless. Slimer and his friends watched from across the way.

"What can we do?" Slimer asked.

"Nothing for the time being. We just have to stay safe for now..." Bow replied.

~

Steam poured out from a crack in the mechanical device. Grodus's head plate was drawn back, and a small microchip was taken out. Above was a large, hulking machine. It kind of looked like Grodus. It had long, metal wings, a long, glowing staff, a long dagger tipped tail, and many other dangerous mechanisms waiting inside. Oh, and it was several stories tall. One X-Naut climbed up a ladder to the head of the machine. He pressed a button, and the giant head plate descended like a drawbridge. The X-Naut placed the computer chip in a small containment mechanism. The eyes of the giant machine glowed and Grodus's voice emanated from it.

"OH YEAH, BABY! GRODUS IS IN THE HOUSE!!! AND HE'S GONNA ROCK YOUR WORLD!!!" Grodus said, sitting up and leaving the large spaceship...

~

The Shadow Queen peered out the window at the chaos going on. She frowned with disgust.

"This is pointless. It will get me nowhere. I must strike. Now. But first, I will leave this mortal body..." She snarled. There was a flash of purple, and a swirling vortex appeared which surrounded her entire being. The roof of the building crashed off and the gigantic demon rose into the air in her true form...

~

Wind whipped across the Shroob Princess's face and she smiled.

"Now I will be invincible with the power of my quartz gem. Those fools won't know what hit them," she said. With a laugh, she touched the gem with her claw, and a swirling pink fog surrounded her. Seconds later, she was much larger, with several tentacles and larger fangs. She resembled much of what her twin sister had looked like at one time. She leaped out into the night, bloodthirst on her mind...

~

The large, demonic Boo called for his servant.

"Excellent. I will strike now, while the time is ripe. Now, let me absorb you, so that my full power will be revealed," Venom said.

"Of course, my lord... It would be an honor..." Xtharue said. The long, spiked tongue snaked out of Venom's mouth and wrapped around his servant, then pulled him in. Venom grew much larger and he cackled into the night.

"MWAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!! I AM A GOD NOW, AND NO POWER WILL EVER AMOUNT TO MINE!!! THE INNOCENT SHALL DIE TONIGHT!!!"

The giant Boo went forward to claim his prize.....

~

All four monsters rushed forward, destroying everything in their wake. They met up with each other and a great cry rung out.

"WHAT ARE YOU DOING HERE?!" all four cried. The four creatures of immense power tensed and got into fighting positions. It was on!

Chapter Fourty-Four: Childhood

A young Ludwig Koopa looked up into the sky, into the great blue, and the fluffy white clouds above. He looked around and saw his siblings besides him. Lemmy happily played with his ball, rolling it back and forth. Ludwig looked around and around again. Had he imagined all the past events? Was it all just a dream? His tiny brain reeled with questions that he could not answer. He walked into Castle Koopa, into the misty dank abode that was his home.

His footsteps echoed off the large, stone walls, and a cold, chilling wind blew past him. He continued on, watching for signs of anything suspicious. The cold nipped at his body, and froze him down to the bone. Yet, he was compelled to move closer to it. His body turned to face its direction, and he slowly walked forwards. The smells and sounds of Castle Koopa were slowly disappearing from Ludwig's senses as he stepped into a bright light. And then, he was falling...

~

Karma awoke to the sounds of yelling. She looked around and yawned to see where she was. She found it dark all around her, the moon blocked out by thick, dark clouds. She saw bright red and orange and saw flames behind her. She could feel grass poke up in between her toes. Somehow, she was on Yoshi's Island. How was this possible? What happened to before? Was it an illusion? As all these thoughts pounded inside her brain, a smell of smoke alerted her back to the strange lights. Several Yosters stood behind her, brandishing torches menacingly at her. "FREAK!!!" one of them called angrily.

Karma screamed into the night, piercing the sky. Birds were awakened and flew off. Sweat dripped down the hybrid's face, and she turned and began to run. Her heart pounded in her chest as she could feel her face burning. She ran deep into the forest, past the old trees, and deeper still. Creatures of the night called to her and she sweat more profusely, terrified. She finally felt her legs give in, and she collapsed, unconscious...

~

Bowser looked around himself, and found there was a sea of lava all below him. He was on a large, rocky platform hovering above it, and facing him was Mario, a look of fury upon his face.

"BOWSER!!! I WILL BRING YOU DOWN!!! I WILL SAVE PEACH!!!" the enraged plumber roared at the reptilian tyrant.

"What are you talking about?" Bowser asked, utterly confused. Mario paid no attention to the confused Bowser, and rushed forward. Mario jumped into the air and punched the large Koopa in his face, sending him flying backwards. Bowser got up, rubbing his sore head, only to find that Mario had charged a colossus of a fireball and shot it straight towards Bowser. He leapt out of the way and sweat came down his face as he realized where he was. He was in the fire sea, on the day that he had kidnapped the princess and imprisoned her in the castle walls. What was he doing here? How did he get here? He had no time to think, as another large fireball sailed over his head.

Bowser rushed forward, claws slashing the air every which way. Mario backflipped and smashed his hammer into the side of Bowser's head. The Koopa fell to the ground again. He growled. What was he scared of? He would teach this troublemaking plumber once and for all. He was King of the Koopas!!! Bowser ran forward, fire building in his throat...

~

Ludwig was falling. Through what he didn't know, but he landed with a plop. He felt cold all around him and he shivered, not knowing where he was. He could see only white in front of him, but could not see what it was. He struggled to his feet, every muscle in his body aching with pain. He gasped to see snow all around him, it covered his feet and made him shiver. An icy wind cut through him like a dagger, and he fell to the ground again. The icy snow enveloped him again, and he screamed in desperation.

He stood on his feet, fighting and raging as much as he could. In the end however it was hopeless. Ludwig wasn't giving up though. No, not by a long shot. He ran forwards, forwards, forwards. Where? He had no idea, but nevertheless, he kept running, from some unseen phantom. He tripped and stumbled, then he was rolling down a large hill, the bottom nowhere in sight. He cried out in pain as he hit a large rock, his body enveloping in pain. He got up again, and by this time, the snow was red with blood, as the rock had cut him deeply. Icicles hung from his mouth and snout. His breath was a mist of icy fog that poured out in billowing steam.

He slowly walked forwards, weaker than before. He coughed deeply, and his throat panged with great pain. His eyelids began to droop, and they too were becoming frozen over. He kept moving, never giving up, but then, his breath slowed. Everything got darker, and his heartbeat slowed... until it was no more and he collapsed on the ground...

~

A bolt of black energy flew past Kamek's face. Kamek glared daggers into the eyes of Vermik. The dark sorcerer only grinned evily and took off into the air again on his broom. Kamek shot bolts of magical energy at the Magikoopa, but Vermik dodged and dipped, avoiding each blast. Kamek cursed annoyed at everything that was going on. Vermik flew high into the air and swooped down, knocking into Kamek, pushing him back several feet and off balance slightly. Kamek growled and flew after the Magikoopa.

Vermik circled in the air before firing more dark magic at the Magikoopa in blue. Kamek spun high into the air before swooping down and following Vermik. Kamek crashed into Vermik and the latter cursed and flew downwards a bit, then fired more magic blasts at Kamek. Kamek dodged, then flew upwards in the air, before knocking into Vermik again, and the black-robed Magikoopa glared angrily at the blue-robed one. Vermik raised his wand into the air and shouted at the top of his lungs.

"SECTUMSEMPRA!!!" he roared, and Kamek's flesh was torn apart by invisible claws. The surprised Magikoopa fell off his broom and into the cold, unforgiving sea, as Vermik laughed evilly...

~

Karma awoke to smoke and burning wood. She was deep within the forest, and her head was pounding intensely. The villagers were getting closer, and she had to keep running. So she did. She ran over logs, and twigs, and rocks. She tripped on a branch and fell to the rough ground. Bruises and cuts covered her, and she clutched at herself, shaking in fear and cold. She got up and ran, finding an old shack at the end of the woods. She ran inside and closed the door to find nothing inside.

She looked in a mirror at her face, and she cried. Tears rolled down her eyes as she looked at her own battered face and body. Then she gasped as the mirror started splitting. Great cracks appeared in it and shards fell to the ground. When two red eyes stared into her soul, she screamed.....

~

Somehow, Ludwig's eyes opened. He saw light, and felt warmth. Fire was all around him, billowing from his open maw. Ludwig poured on the gusto and admired his handy work. Then, the ice around him started to crack. He ran, in terror, but to no avail. He ran, sweat pouring down his face. The ice split wider until the cracks were all around him. He cried out as the ice split. He started sliding towards the gaping hole, until he was dangling from the edge of it, and then fell in. Fell into the gaping blackness...

~

Bowser groaned as a kick to the stomach knocked out all his breath. He wheezed as Mario punched him in the face. He was not in the best shape. He ducked inside his shell and shot forward, but Mario jumped over, and when Bowser came out, Mario grabbed the Koopa's tail. Bowser roared as he fell to the ground. With great strength, the plumber-clad hero spun the giant Terrapin around at astounding speeds, before letting go. Bowser soared towards one of the large spiked bomb, and he screamed, feeling the force of the steel stab into his flesh...

~

Kamek felt cold water all around him, and bubbles came out of his mouth. Then a figure dove into the water after him. Kamek kicked at the fiend, but was punched in the jaw by a fierce punch. Vermik closed in and strangled the blue-robed Magikoopa. Kamek gasped as a large amount of bubbles came from his mouth, and he began to lose consciousness...

And then they all woke up. They opened their eyes and looked around. Clawdia was sitting on the ground, a strange look on her face. Bowser rubbed his head.

"What in the world happened?" Bowser asked.

"It seems to be some hallucinogen-caused nightmare. And I don't think we're in Kansas anymore. Toto..." Ludwig replied.

"What?" Bowser asked. Ludwig shook his head and dismissed it. But then, Mario was seen, coming from a large, rope bridge. Multicolored lightning rained down from above as the Koopa clan looked at this demonic world they had entered. Bowser turned towards Mario.

"HEY MARIO! I'M GONNA CLOBBER YA!!!" Bowser roared, as Mario looked and groaned at the source of the sound.

"I don't have time for this... Let's just get it over with," Mario replied, annoyed. The two combatants readied, and began to fight...
