Part 10:
Mario is walking, the sun’s heat is torturing him and his legs feel limp.
Mario: I… am… tired. Need… rest… or… I… will… not… be… able to… go… on…
FLUDD: Mario! Don’t fall asleep! Remember the princess!
Mario: I… must… not… fall… ZZzzzzzzzzz…
FLUDD: Mario? MARIO!
Mario: ZZzzzzzzzzz…
FLUDD: *sigh* Oh well. At least he’ll be rested.
The ground under Mario opens up. He falls through it and lands on a platform that is floating on top of lava. Shadow Mario emerges from the lava.
Mario: Shadow Mario!
Mario tries to spray Shadow Mario but he can’t. He looks on his back and sees that FLUDD is gone! Shadow Mario turns around to show that FLUDD is now on his back!
FLUDD: Ha ha ha! Stupid plumber!
Mario: FLUDD! NO!
FLUDD turns into Shadow FLUDD. Shadow Mario sprays Mario with Shadow FLUDD and Mario falls into the lava. Mario opens his eyes. He looks around and sees that he’s still in Delfino Plaza. He looks on his back and sees FLUDD. Everything was a dream! What a relief.
Mario: *sigh* That was a bad dream! Where’s our next place to go to, FLUDD?
FLUDD: Uh…
They see somebody watching TV. They see a D.E.B.S Alert on the TV.
D.E.B.S Alert: It has been reported that Pianta Village is in danger! There is a Chain Chomp that is devouring the entire village! The only defense at the village is a lone Yoshi.
Mario: Mamamia! To Pianta Village!
FLUDD: But where is it?
A Pianta walks up to Mario.
Pianta: There’s a warp pipe on top of the Shine Gate. It’ll get you there.
Mario: Then let’s go!
Mario runs to the Shine Gate and uses the Rocket Nozzle to shoot to the top. He lands in the warp pipe. He lands gracefully at the beginning of the bridge that leads to the village.
FLUDD: Is this Pianta Village?
Mario reads a sign.
Mario: “Ch…eese Village” Cheese Village! Darn! That man told us to go to the wrong place!
FLUDD reads the sign.
FLUDD: “Pianta Village”, MARIO! This is Pianta Village!
Mario: Oh.
???: RRAAARRRR!!!
Yoshi: You better leave village alone! Help!
Mario runs over to the village and sees a Chain Chomp with a circle of goop painted around his eye.
Mario: I think that if I spray that goop on his eye off, that it will-
Mario is hit by a Bullet Bill. Mario crashes into a wall. He looks to his right and sees General Koop.
Mario: General Koop? You’re against me now?
General Koop: Well of course, fool! I’ve always been against you! This trap that was set for you is the best ever! Now, go. Go and save everybody! (If you can. Ha ha ha!)
Mario runs off to the Chain Chomp but is shot from behind by another Bullet Bill. He falls down. He gets back up and continues his way to the Chain Chomp. He is shot down by another Bullet Bill. Mario tries to get up but he just falls back down. He has been KO’d.
Yoshi: NNOOO!!!
Chain Chomp: BARK BARK! (Is he a friend of yours?)
Yoshi: Huh? What you mean? Yoshi saying no because fruit prices went up at newly opened fruit store in village.
Chain Chomp: BARK BAARRRKKKK!!! (What?! NNOOO!!!)
General Koopa and his men go up to Mario and aim at him with a Banzai cannon.
General Koop: I hope you enjoyed the last piece of cheese you ate! Because you’re not eating any ever again! FIRE!
Yoshi: Yoshi feel like he should help fat man.
The Banzai cannon fires a Banzai Bill at Mario. Yoshi eats it when it’s just about to hit Mario! Yoshi turns the Banzai Bill into a really big egg.
General Koop: O.O You stupid dinosaur! Give us our Banzai Bill back right now!
Yoshi: NEVER!
Yoshi throws the egg at the Chain Chomp. The egg does lots of damage to the Chain Chomp and the Chain Chomp dies.
General Koop: AHH! Our trap! Ruined by a dumb animal!
Yoshi: Yoshi not dumb!
Yoshi shoots his tongue into the Banzai cannon and turns a few Banzai Bbills into eggs. Yoshi throws the eggs at the troops and they die.
General Koop: NNNOOOO!!!
Mario wakes up.
Mario: Huh? What happened?
Yoshi: Yoshi save day!
General Koop: Oh no you didn’t.
General Koop pulls a red potion out of his shell.
General Koop: Behold! The strength increaser! It makes whoever drinks it 10 times stronger! Courtesy of Ludwig von Koopa.
General Koop drinks the potion and his arms become as big as two Yoshis stacked on top of each other. The same thing happens to his legs.
General Koop: NOW FACE MY WRATH!
Mario: AAAHHHH!!!
Yoshi: Yoshi must help fat man and beat mean man!
Yoshi throws Mario in the air with his tongue. Mario lands on Yoshi’s back.
Yoshi: Hang on, fat man!
Mario: It’s Mario.
Yoshi: Oh. Yoshi sorry. Hang on, fat Mario!
Yoshi charges at General Koop. General Koop grabs Yoshi by the throat. He throws Yoshi and Mario against a wall. Yoshi gets up. Mario sprays General Koop.
General Koop: AHH! Hey! Stop that! That’s annoying!
Mario stops spraying. General Koop sees Yoshi charging at him again. Yoshi collides with General Koop but General Koop is not moved.
General Koop: Grr… No more kid stuff! This is a real fight!
Mario: Then let’s do it!
Yoshi: YOSHI!
Life Check: General Koop: 70 HP. Mario: 40 HP. Yoshi: 20 HP.
General Koop punches the ground. His fist goes inside the ground. He takes it out and has a giant boulder. He throws it at Mario.
Mario: Ouch!
Mario falls off of Yoshi’s back. He gets back up and gets back on Yoshi.
Mario: Thirsty? Have a drink!
Mario sprays General Koop. He then brings out the Shine Sprites and they go over to General Koop and hover over his head. The water on General Koop starts to become boiling hot.
General Koop: OUCH! HOT HOT HOT HOT HOT HOT HOT HOT HOT!!!
Yoshi: *sniff* Ooh… that smell delicious.
Life Check: General Koop: 65 HP. Mario: 30 HP. Yoshi: 20 HP.
General Koop: You’re gonna pay for that, plumber!
General Koop stomps on the ground. The ground underneath Mario and Yoshi shoots up. Mario and Yoshi go flying in the air. General Koop stomps on the ground again and the ground that was underneath Mario and Yoshi goes back down. Mario and Yoshi land on their faces. They get up. Mario sprays General Koop and uses the Shine Sprites to make the water on him hot again.
General Koop:
OUCH! HOT HOT HOT HOT HOT HOT HOT HOT HOT!!! WILL YOU STOP
THAT?!
Yoshi: *sniff* That smell soooo good!
Life Check: General Koop: 60 HP. Mario: 15 HP. Yoshi: 5 HP.
General Koop: This next move will wipe you out!
General Koop grabs
the Chain Chomp and throws it at Mario. Mario does the attack he’s done
for the last two turns.
General Koop:
OUCH! HOT HOT HOT HOT HOT HOT HOT HOT HOT!!! WILL YOU STOP THAT?! OUCH
OUCH OUCH! IT REALLY HURTS!
Yoshi: *big sniff* YOSHI CAN’T RESIST!
Yoshi shoots his tongue out at General Koop. Yoshi brings his tongue back and General Koop is now in his mouth
Yoshi: *munch crunch munch* Eewww!!!
Yoshi spits General Koop out. General Koop goes flying out of Yoshi’s mouth and lands in the sea.
General Koop: Aahhh… this is relaxing. But wait… Mario beat me! Dang it! Oh well, at least things can’t get worse.
A Cheep Cheep eats General Koop.
Back at Pianta Village…
Yoshi: Thank you, fat Mario!
Mario: My name is just Mario!
Yoshi: Gee, sorry fat Mario.
Mario: *sigh*
Yoshi: Yoshi have tummy-ache. Errg… BLAGH!
Yoshi spits out a Shine Sprite.
Mario: A Shine Sprite! Yay!
Mario grabs the Shine Sprite and is teleported back to Isle Delfino.
In the castle in the sky…
A Koopa walks into Bowser’s throne room. Bowser is sitting at a table with Peach while they eat.
Bowser: So then I told the Koopa (biting food, swallowing food) “YOU CAN’T-
Koopa: Your Highness!
Bowser: WHAT IS IT?
Peach: *swallow* Yes Koopa, what is it?
Koop: Um *gulp* Mario has just collected his seventh Shine Sprite.
Bowser: … Mwa… mwa ha… Mwa ha ha ha! Ha ha ha ha! Ah ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha!
Peach and Koopa: O_O
Bowser: That’s great!
Bowser pulls a walkie-talkie out of his shell. He starts speaking into it.
Bowser: Yo! Junior! It’s time for you-know-what!
Junior: Time to destroy you-know-who?
Bowser: You-got-it! Ha ha!
Peach: (Uh oh.) Uh… I have to go to the bathroom.
Bowser: Ok then.
Peach leaves the room.
Bowser: <_<
Peach heads to Ludwig’s lab. She goes to the computer.
Computer: Password, please.
Peach: I hate Mario.
Bowser: And so do I.
Peach looks behind her and sees Bowser!
Bowser: So Peach, this is what you’ve been doing? Sneaking off to my son’s lab, so you can contact your idiotic plumber boyfriend?
Peach: I- I- I-
Bowser: Well… I’m sorry I have to do this.
Bowser calls his Koopa Kids. He asks Lemmy for his Freeze Gun. Lemmy hands it to him. Bowser freezes all of Peach except for her head.
Bowser: Ok, kids! It’s time to go and prepare the wedding!
Peach: NO! MMAAARRRRIIIIIOOOOOO!!!
Will Mario be able to save Peach? Will he be able to move the sun out of the way of the moon and let Isle Delfino get some good night sleep? And why am I asking you these questions if I’m the author? Find out in Super Mario Moonlight Part 11: Shadow Showdown!
