CHAPTER 3: PIRANHA FIELDS
Larry rode on the Piranha Plant's back as it ate more and more. The Piranha Plant became huge until it hit a piece of hard stone and gave up.
Larry: Thanks anyway. Here, take 100 coins.
The Piranha Plant took the coins and slid down a warp pipe and came back up in another one.
Larry: Now how will I get down there?
Larry decided to try using his earth-moving powers. Larry held out his hands and pretended to lift up a rock. It didn't work. Larry tried again, but he had no luck. Larry sat down and kept banging at the rock.
Larry: Why won't it move?!
Larry kept banging it until he was too tired to even move. Larry lay on his back on the verge of crying. When he closed his eyes, he felt like he was floating. After Larry had been crying for a while, he found that he was floating on the rock in the air. Larry saw a small, lighted tunnel going through the ground. Larry wondered why the rock had moved and saw his tears soaked into the piece of earth.
Larry: WATER!
Larry jumped off the rock and fell into the hole. He landed in a tunnel and made a torch. Larry walked for a couple hours until he saw a red and orange- colored door, like in Yoshi's Island.
Larry: This must be a crazy dream.
Larry walked through the door and a giant, purple Piranha Plant snapped at him. Larry looked up and saw his siblings hanging unconscious from its tentacles.
Larry: Let them go!
Larry tried to use his magic on the plant, but it didn't work and the Piranha Plant tried to eat him. Larry remembered playing Lemmy's Yoshi's Island DS game, and threw rocks at the Piranha Plant's mouth, breaking its teeth. The Koopalings slipped out of the Piranha Plant's tentacles and fwll on the ground. The plant died and rotted away.
Larry: I... I sense something. I feel all tingly inside.
Larry saw something glowing in the distance, and ran over to it.
Larry: It's...
COMMERCIAL BREAK!!!
Guy: Did you buy Rock 'em Sock 'em Roy yet? No!? BUY NOW!!! BUY NOW!!! BUY NOW OR I'LL EAT YOUR SPLEEN!!!
Goomba: You said that in the beginning of this story.
Guy: Oh shut up!
COMMERCIAL END!!!
Larry: It's... THE WAND!!!
Larry picked up the wand and there was a great flash.
Larry: I... I... feel... stronger!
Larry looked at his siblings and noticed that Morton was starting to come to.
Larry: Morton! Are you all right?
Morton: You're welcome.
Larry: Wha?
Morton: I moved the earth for you before I passed out.
Larry: Thank you.
A while later, the Koopalings were all awake.
Lemmy: How did you beat that Piranha Plant?
Larry: I threw rocks in his mouth, which broke his teeth and somehow killed him.
Ludwig: Good thing we got the wand!
Wendy: We wouldn't have been down here if Bowser Jr. didn't pass out!
Bowser Jr: Did we find the wand? YES! What are you angry at me for?
Wendy: Whatever.
In some cool hideout place that has no water...
Shadow Mario was sitting at a table thinking about what Kamek had said about magic.
Shadow Mario: I could use the wands, but Kamek and Kammy have really powerful magic. I-
Bowser walked through the door.
Bowser: I never got that free cookie!
Shadow Mario: Shut up, will ya?!
Bowser: Why did you turn on us? We're your creators.
Shadow Mario: I can't tell you why.
Bowser: Why did you turn on Bowser Jr? I thought he didn't recreate you yet anyway. He was making you in the beginning of the story. Unless you were the creation he made that ran away.
Shadow Mario: FINE!!! I'll tell you. When we lost on Island Delfino, Bowser Jr. couldn't transform into me. He decided to recreate me for a playmate, but I didn't want to play. Instead, I wanted to destroy you and your army and family! Sure, I was happy about my independence, but it was Bowser Jr's fault that we lost the battle. Of course you must draw the plans, and I thought that the Koopas' are stupid things that shouldn't live on Plit. I found some of your enemies: Mario, Toad, Shroobs, and even Goombas! We decided to get together and destroy you all! The only reason I asked you to join was so I could kill you myself.
Shadow Mario pulled out a laser sword and ran towards Bowser.
Bowser: NOOOOOOO!!! HELP!!!
Right before Shadow Mario hit Bowser, the Shadow Queen walked through the door.
Shadow Queen: I brought milk and cookies!
Shadow Mario: Honey! I'm busy trying to kill Bowser!
Shadow Queen got really angry and a fire started around her.
Shadow Queen: YOU WILL EAT THOSE COOKIES THAT I MADE FOR YOU RIGHT NOW OR I'LL BREAK UP WITH YOU!!!
Shadow Mario: *gulp* Yes, my pretty, cute, and beautiful girlfriend that has the ability to make me do anything she wants by making threats.
Shadow Mario slowly took a cookie and ate it.
Shadow Queen: I'll be trying to get our army awake. I want those cookies gone by the time I get back!
Shadow Queen left.
Shadow Mario: I'll kill you later. I will get my revenge!
Bowser gulped and left the room. Shadow Mario threw the plate of cookies out the window of his hideout.
KASTLE KOOPA...
Kamek and Kammy were putting up the castle's defense system. Kammy sat down and closed her eyes.
Kammy: They've found the wand of Grass Land.
Kamek: Do you know where they are going?
Kammy: No. They're sleeping at a hotel in a small town.
Kamek: I'll teleport this to them.
Kamek held up a small object that looked like a phone.
Kamek: They could find this useful as a map system so they can get to the lands, and it'll store all their items and coins.
Kamek created a warp hole and threw the thing down the hole.
HOO'S WOODS HOTEL...
The Koopalings were fast asleep in the snug, warm beds. Larry had fallen asleep with the wand in his arms. Ludwig had carried him halfway through Hoo's Woods until they saw the old hotel they were staying in now.
CRASH!
The Koopalings woke up and saw the thing Kamek had sent. Iggy got out of bed and picked it up. The thing began to flash and make a soft beeping sound.
Thing: Hello! My name is R.U.S.T.
Iggy: What does R.U.S.T. stand for?
R.U.S.T: It stands for Really Useful Shiny Thing. Just call me Rust. With out the .'s in it.
Iggy: Hi Rust! Where did you come from?
Wendy: And so early too!
Rust: I was sent by Masters Kamek and Kammy. I was told to assist the eight of you.
Ludwig: Wow. Did Kamek and Kammy make you themselves?
Rust: Yup.
Lemmy: *yawn* Let's go back to sleep. *yawn*
The Koopalings went back to sleep. Rust shut down and landed on the nightstand next to Iggy's bed.
SHADOW MARIO'S HIDEOUT...
Shadow Mario: I have an idea on how to beat those Koopas!
The Shadow Queen walked in with another plate of cookies.
Shadow Queen: I made you some more cookies. I haven't got the army awake yet, though.
Shadow Mario: Is Bowser still here?
Shadow Queen: Yes. He's staying until he gets that free cookie. Even if he dies before he gets it.
Shadow Mario: Don't give him a cookie. He'll quit after he gets it.
Shadow Queen: How about I make a poison cookie for him? It'll kill him for sure!
Shadow Mario: Not yet. I'll wait until I defeat Kamek and Kammy. Then, he won't be revived by them.
Shadow Queen: Excellent plan! I'll keep trying to revive the army.
Shadow Queen left and Shadow Mario took out an old magic book. He threw the new plate of cookies out the window.
Will the Koopalings find the wands? Will Shadow Queen find out that Shadow Mario is throwing her cookies out the window? Will Rust really help them? Can Kamek and Kammy defend the castle when the army comes to? Will the army come to? Can Shadow Mario defeat Kamek and Kammy so he can kill Bowser?
