Chapter Three: Memories of the Legends
Five years prior to the War of the Two Kingdoms, a great disaster befell an uncharted territory off the coast of Dry Dry Desert. A fishing boat vanished and exploded, because the unwary Hoohooligans on board had unwittingly discovered…
Kolorado Koopa, the famed explorer, archaeologist, marine biologist, scuba diver, and safari hunter, decided at once to investigate the site of the explosion because he always liked investigating strange occurrences all the time.
Bringing along his closest friends and colleagues, because the mission was too dangerous for his family, Kolorado flew his bi-plane to the uncharted site of the explosion and discovered the ancient sunken city of Kehk'Kulla. He decided to go check it out.
"This city is very ancient!" Russ T. observed, noticing that the ruins were very old and not new. Dr. The Angry Sun agreed, because he was very well educated and a doctor. Kooper was also there.
"Look! I have found something!" Kolorado announced, and pointed to the Swirling Vortex in the middle of the room.
"Ahhhh!" Everyone gasped in surprise.
"It is the Swirling Vortex that the ancient scrolls said would be here! How will this affect The Prophecy?!" Dr. The Angry Sun said in horror.
"Don't look into it!" Kolorado shrieked, "It is filled with a lot of evil!"
"But what is inside of the Vortex?" Kooper asked, curiously.
"DON'T LOOK INSIDE IT!"
Kooper looked inside the Vortex, and then gasped.
"I can see Fawful! He's alive! I have to save him!"
"NO, KOOPER!" Russ T. seized him by the shoulder, "Fawful died in the fire! You have to let go of the past! It's a trick!"
But it was too late, Kooper wanted to be reunited with Fawful so badly that he wrestled against Kolorado and Russ T. He leaped inside the Swirling Vortex and shrieked in excruciating and painful agony.
The Vortex turned bright black and Kooper fell from the darkness.
"We have to get him to a hospital!" Kolorado yelled, weeping.
Dr. The Angry Sun took his pulse. "IT'S TOO LATE! HE'S ALREADY EVIL!" he shouted.
"NO!!!"
Raising from the floor floating and covered in darkness, Kooper glared wickedly with evil eyes and a cigar in his mouth. He summoned the Vortex Scythe and it appeared suddenly in his hands.
"I can see everything now, and the war must begin again," Kooper said with a demonic voice, and raising his scythe, he killed Russ T. with thirteen attacks.

As their katanas clashed, the two combatants leapt across a large gorge. Luigi knocked his sensei's blade back and did a triple backflip. Sensei then pulled out three katanas attached to a chain and swung them with awesome skill.
Clang! Clang! Clang! Clang! Clang! Clang! Clang! Clang! Clang! Clang! Clang! Luigi blocked twelve blows with his katana.
"Your moves are too slow," Tubba Blubba scolded. "Make them fast and not slow."
"I am sorry, Sensei," the green plumber
apologized. "I will train harder. That way, I can be faster."
"Let us rest beneath the cherry blossoms,"
Tubba Blubba said, "and meditate and stuff."
The two sipped their apple juice in peace. Tubba Blubba took the crazy bendy straw out of his mouth in order to give some sage advice.
"Luigi, this world… is changing."
"What do you mean, Sensei?"
"I feel that the world is changing… into chaos."
"Chaos?"
"Yes. The Prophecy says so."
"What is the Prophecy, Sensei?" Luigi asked curiously.
"Hold on, grasshopper," Tubba Blubba said. "I need more apple juice. Hold on." He reached over towards the pink thermos and began pouring himself another glass.
Sixty-eight arrows immediately hit the thermos, blowing it to bits. Tubba Blubba leapt to his feet and grabbed his katana chain. "Who's out there?!"
"It is I, LAKILESTER!"
"You again? I thought you were killed when you tried to steal the Inferno Gauntlet!"
"I managed to get away and not be killed."
"Well, now you'll be killed," Tubba Blubba hissed, "by ME."
"Sensei!"
"Run, Luigi!" Tubba Blubba shouted. "Run and tell the other Cherry Blossom Senseis! Tell them that the Dark Minions of the Chaos Door have returned!"
"Wait, who?"
"The Dark Minions of the Chaos Door!"
"The Chaos Door?!"
"Yes!"
"Okay."
Luigi began to run for it, but Lakilester was right in front of him. He pulled out his crossbow and prepared to fire his fire arrows. Luigi was about to pull out his katana, but Tubba Blubba charged in the middle.
"You'll pay for what you did to Jimmy T!"
"He didn't want to be part of the Dark Minions. And you know what the Dark Minions of the Chaos Door do to people who don't want to be Dark Minions? THEY KILL THEM!"
"YOU FIEND!"
"Sensei!"
"LUIGI, WHY HAVEN'T YOU RUN AWAY YET?!"
"It's been fun," Lakilester snickered as he pulled out a dark saber, "but playtime is OVER."
Lakilester shot a dark beam of dark energy at Tubba Blubba. The former gentle sensei screamed as he became consumed by the darkness. As black flames surrounded his body, his eyes opened. They were blood-red. Evil blood-red.
"SENSEI!" Luigi screamed.
"GLORY TO THE DOOR!" Tubba Blubba roared as he pulled out eight katanas. There were five on one hand, and three on the other hand. He swung the three in one hand first, but Luigi dodged those.
"SENSEI!"
"GLORY TO THE DOOR!"
"Sensei, snap out of it. Please."
"It's no use," Lakilester cackled. "He's evil now! Like me!"
There was only one thing Luigi could do. Tearfully, he grabbed the crazy bendy straws and jabbed them in Tubba Blubba's eyes. His former sensei screamed in pain and staggered around. Tripping on the remains of the pink thermos, Tubba Blubba tumbled down the gorge. There were sharp rocks at the bottom, and he died.
"FATHER!" Luigi sobbed.
"Father? He's not your father!" Lakilester laughed.
"He was like a father to me."
"Dude, that stinks."
Luigi, enraged, picked up his sensei's katana chain and threw it at Lakilester. Lakilester dodged it because he could fly in his cloud.
"You'll never escape the Chaos Door!" Lakilester threatened as he flew away. "It will be opened!"
Luigi fell to his knees in sadness. "I killed my own father…" He clutched his stomach in pain and wept bitterly. As he cried some more, he looked in the broken thermos and saw a key.
"What… What is this?"
But then he knew. It was one of the keys to the Chaos Door. Attached to the key was a small note. Luigi picked it up and read it carefully. His eyes widened in horror.
Then he screamed into the night, screaming the name of the person who was responsible for everything that had just happened. The name was on the note.
"KOOPER!!!"

There once was a little-known cavern beneath the waters of Butter Bridge, guarded by ancient shark demons and caught in a perpetual hurricane. Inside it was said to be a connection to the Darkness Realm and an item of unspeakable power.
A small sailing vessel floated on the choppy, unstable waters outside of this mysterious cave. Inside, four penguins were on an expedition to find out once and for all what secrets the place guarded.
“This way, boys!" the eldest announced, pointing his torch down a very straight corridor. "Not much further now, I can feel it!"
Pennington, Mayor Penguin, and Tuxie followed behind Penbert, the father of the former. Pennington was observing the nine hundred and forty seven purple crystals sticking out of the walls, radiating dark energies.
"This place is most peculiar!" he said, rubbing his chin. "These purple crystals appear to be radiating a dark energy!"
Tuxie looked aside, not able to think of anything to say. He was shy.
"My god!" Penbert yelled, nearly dropping his torch. "Look at THAT!"
There was an orb on the ground. It was swirling with evil radiation not fit for modern civilization. Penbert laughed, running up to the object and observing it.
"Most peculiar!" Pennington announced. "I believe this is, what they call… the Dark Influence!"
Tuxie gasped.
"This is it, boys!" Penbert cackled loudly. "THIS IS WHAT WE’VE COME FOR!"
"We should put it inside of our museum," Pennington suggested.
Penbert glanced backwards at his son. "The… museum?" He turned towards Pennington. "Oh yes, indeed, we’ll put it in the museum." He lifted it up. "But… not on display!"
Immediately the cavern exploded with dark electricity. Pennington and Tuxie fell backwards as Penbert was engulfed in the darkness. The walls fell apart, revealing portals into the Darkness Realm. The penguins could see sixty-seven demons reaching out for them from behind the portals.
"NO!" Mayor Penguin bellowed, charging towards Penbert.
"Destroy him, Penbertus!" a voice commanded from the portal.
Penbert launched a dark missile at Mayor Penguin. He was engulfed in dark fire. With his last breath, he screamed something loud and incoherent. Mayor Penguin was dead.
"Just as the prophecy said…" Penbert laughed. "The power is MINE! And of course, I’ll need minions…"
Tuxie was zapped with dark electricity. He screamed in utter agony as his spirit was transformed into darkness. Pennington jumped in front of the stream and took some of it for his friend, but it was too late. Tuxie’s eyes were glowing a neon purple color.
"Come, my boy," Penbert said, reaching an arm out to his injured son. "We have a job to do!"
Pennington assessed the situation, and thought about resisting, but something in his head wanted to go with his father… something dark…
The voice rang out again. "Go now, Followers of the Darkness, and carry out the Prophecy before it’s too late!"
Tuxie and Penbert laughed, exiting the cave and leaving the ashes of Mayor Penguin behind. Pennington fought his inner demons, but eventually, the inner demons won, and he went with them.

Their dark black cloaks fluttered sinisterly in the darkness. Around a long table were seventeen chairs. Seventeen figures in dark black cloaks sat in the chairs, while two stood up because there weren't enough chairs.
"A new era is rising," the leader whispered. It was impossible to see his face because it was dark. Also, he was wearing a mask.
"What?" someone asked.
"I said, a new era is rising. The dark era. The dark era of Organization Seventeen."
There was much discussion amongst the members of Organization Seventeen. Finally, one of the members stood up and slammed her fists on the table.
"SILENCE!"
Everyone stopped talking and became silent.
"Now," Tayce T. began, "now that everyone is silent, I can talk. I have recently heard news that the Crystal King is planning on interfering with our plans. He must be taken care of."
"How so?" one member asked.
"With DEATH."
"Okay."
"Be seated, Tayce T," the leader ordered. Tayce T. sat down grudgingly and began picking lint off her dark black cloak. The leader then turned around. He then turned around again to face the members.
"Now is not the time to worry about such meaningless and dumb matters. We must focus our efforts on claiming the Seventeen Arch-Angels of the Prophecy."
"But in order to complete that, we must kill all who stand in our way!" Tayce T. cried.
"I agree!"
"So do I!"
"Yeah!"
One of the members took off her hood to reveal herself as none other than Watt. "I'll kill Crystal King, like how I killed Flurrie!"
"ENOUGH!"
All of the members turned to face one of the members that wasn't with them. The member took off his hood to reveal himself as none other than E. Gadd.
"I've had enough of these rascally schemes!" E. Gadd shrieked as he pulled out a grenade launcher. "I was never really a member at all! My allegiances lie with Organization Enigma! I'm betraying you guys, did you know that?!"
Gasps could be heard amongst Organization Seventeen.
"You would betray us," the leader hissed, "for Organization ENIGMA?!"
"Yeah."
"Well, your life ends here," Tayce T. snarled as she pulled out a gatling gun, "because I'm going to shoot you and you're going to die."
"Not if I have anything to say about it!"
The ceiling exploded and Merlon leapt down from the ceiling. Clutching two chain guns, he fired them recklessly into the eighteen Organization Seventeen members. Seven of them got hit, but didn't die, and eleven of them didn't get hit and also didn't die.
"You want more?!" Merlon bellowed at the members.
"No!" one of the members cried.
"Well, too bad, because I'm going to shoot more bullets at you!"
"Merlon, we have to get out of here!" E. Gadd pleaded.
"No, Elvin," Merlon sighed. "You get out of here. I'll distract them with the bullets I'm shooting from my chainguns."
"But they outnumber you eighteen guys to one guy, which is you!"
"It's okay, Elvin. It's okay."
"But-"
"RUN!" Merlon ordered. "RUN REALLY FAST AWAY FROM HERE!"
E. Gadd wiped the tears from his eyes and put on his mechano pants. He then ran away, refusing to look back because he didn't want to see Merlon die.
The leader sneered, but no one could see him sneer because it was so dark and he was still wearing a mask. "So Merlon, what will you do now? We outnumber you eighteen guys to one guy."
"This…"
"This what?"
"THIS IS FOR WHAT YOU DID TO TATANGA!"
Merlon took out three more chainguns and fired them really fast. As the members of Organization Seventeen dodged all the bullets and swarmed in on him with their dark blades, Merlon whispered his last words.
"The Chaos Door…"
Chapter Four: Forbidden Nightmare of Destruction
"Just tell us the launch codes and this can all be over," Tutankoopa whispered icily through the cellphone. "We don't have to play these games."
A trickle of sweat ran down Mallow’s brow. He wiped it away and glanced down the many corridors of the Labyrinth of Madness. "You're not going to get anything out of me, BUSTER," he squeaked fearfully.
The lights flickered ominous, and there came a booming, horrific snarl from beyond the walls. Mallow repressed a shriek.
"We will get them with or without you. It’s your choice whether to throw away your life. We've already captured Grass Land AND the crimson chalice, Mallow. There's nothing you can do about it. Stop delaying the inevitable." Tutankoopa hissed.
"I..." Mallow hesitated. He didn't really want to trust his greatest enemy. He wondered if he should.
"I’ll let you think about it." There was a click, and the phone went dead and then exploded in Mallow’s face and then he fell down.
There was a sliding groan of steel on stone and the creaking of cog wheels. An immense gate slid open, and the room began slowly filling with liquid hot lava and angry crocodiles.
The PA system crackled to life. Tutankoopa's sinister laughter rang out through it. "Starting to get a little scared?" chortled the garbled voice of the ancient Koopa pharaoh, "Good. I spent seven hundred and eleven years crafting this labyrinth. Centuries of effort have been poured into making this the deadliest and most inescapable dungeon ever. I have waited so long for a victim. Of course, you could always spoil my fun by telling us the launch code. Or..."
With a clank, spikes protruded from the ceiling and began descending rapidly. Mallow inched away from the encroaching lava. The crocodiles snapped at Mallow furiously. They were upset about the lava and spiky ceiling.
"You can join your precious Merlow in THE AFTER LIFE."
"Back off!" Mallow demanded, and lashed at the crocodiles with his plasma whip. This made them even angrier, and then they attacked!
Leaping out of the way, Mallow latched his whip onto a rail over a bottomless chasm and swung across. The crocodiles tried jumping across too, but none of them had plasma whips so they fell down the pit instead.
Mallow, wanting to get away from the descending ceiling of death, quickly entered a door labeled Exit.
He entered a round room with an immense bejeweled throne, where MIPS the rabbit sat holding the Nightmare Scepter.
MIPS glowered and flicked his ears menacingly. "You're late, for this very important date. You should know that the only thing I respect is punctuality."
Mallow backed away, but the door was suddenly locked behind him. "What are you DOING here?"
"I am the new leader of the Brotherhood of Nightmares, Mallow. I killed Raphael the Raven myself. I will personally see to it that The Prophecy is STOPPED."
"IMPOSSIBLE!" Mallow shouted, unable to control his rage. "The Prophecy MUST be fulfilled."
"The Prophecy is a conspiracy, a veil over the eyes of the people. If I don't put an end to this, they will find out what The Prophecy truly means for us." MIPS looked entreatingly at Mallow. "Please, young prince, give us the launch codes so that we can put a stop to this. There are lives at stake. Seaside Town may be next."
Mallow stopped, and considered this. Was The Prophecy wrong? It could be. He hadn't thought of that. Maybe it was. He didn't know. But what if the prophecy was RIGHT? That was also possible. He wondered if he could trust the Brotherhood of Nightmares.
"Please, Mallow. You're our only hope."
Mallow’s plasma whip deactivated and fell to the floor. Tears were streaming down his eyes.
"The password is Koopasta12345"
*\\~//*//~\\*\\~//*-*\\~//*//~\\*\\~//*
"How could this happen to meeee?" Green sobbed as he lay on the cold, stone floor. Blood spilled from his nose where he had gotten punched by a fist.
"You made your mistakes."
Green looked up to find himself face to face with Beldam. She kicked the Ninjakoopa viciously in his side, causing him to roll over in pain. Beldam then pulled out her chain-scythe.
"Now tell me. Who knows the Dark Sonata?"
"I don't know."
"Don't you lie to me, you liar. Kylie Koopa paid for lying to me with her life."
"But I don't know anything!"
"Lies! Liar, liar, pants on fire!"
As Beldam screeched these words, she appropriately froze Greens legs to the floor with an ice blast. She then grabbed the Ninjakoopa by the neck and attempted to lift him, but didn't get very far because his legs were frozen to the floor.
"How many of you Ninjakoopas do I have to kill before I get all of the Dark Secrets of the Forgotten?"
"I don't know what you're talking about!"
"Well, maybe THIS will refresh your memory!"
Beldam pulled a big, red lever and a big, blue door opened. Toadette could be seen tied to a chair and surrounded by seven spikes. Green gasped in horror.
"Spikes!"
"Yes, and also your girlfriend, Toadette!"
"Toadette!"
"Now prepare yourself," Beldam cackled as she brought out her robot laser claw hand, "for your time to DIE!"
Beldam shot fourteen lasers at Green. The nimble Ninjakoopa leapt over three of them, ducked under four of them, and dodged the rest. Green attempted to run over to Toadette, but those spikes were in the way.
"Save yourself, Green!"
"Not until I save you!"
"Run, Green! And don't let her have the Dark Sonata! Who knows what would happen if she got the Dark Sonata?! She already killed Burt the Bashful for the Tome of Ages!"
Lasers rained from above. Beldam cackled maniacally as robot spider legs sprang from her torso. Green managed to run over to his trident and grabbed it ferociously.
"Got nowhere to run!" Beldam screeched.
"The night goes on, Beldam!"
Green jumped ten feet into the air and threw his golden trident dramatically. It pierced through the Siren’s spidery body and pinned her against the far wall. The robot legs and laser claw hand dissolved into goo.
"As I’m fading away…"
Beldam’s body slowly began dissolving as well. She lifted one hand toward Green weakly. Green rushed over to her side.
"Beldam, Beldam, no…"
"Green, you must live."
"Beldam!"
"Keep the Dark Sonata away from the two kingdoms. It will only lead them to ruin."
"Beldam!"
"And Green, Red isn't dead. He joined… the Organization. Organization Enigma. He joined it."
"Beldam!"
"And the Crown of Twilight. The Prophecy says you must find it…"
"Beldam!"
"… I’m sick of this life. I just wanna scream."
"BELDAM!!!"
"How could this happen to meee…"
Green sobbed as Beldam dissolved in his arms. His former lover was gone. As he glanced into the stars, he swore that he would never forgive Belome. Ever.
*\\~//*//~\\*\\~//*-*\\~//*//~\\*\\~//*
"Sire," announced a Hammer Brother clad in samurai armor, "I have a message, from our allies at Cookie Mountain.
A large Nokobon sat in his glorious throne before him. He had a scar across his left eye, golden shoulder pads, a crown upon his head, and a golden, diamond-encrusted katana at his side. In his lap rested his pet Dino Torch, who was exhaling flames as he snored.
"Very well," he announced. "Stewards, read his message. And behead this man!"
A pair of Clubbas grabbed the scroll out of the messenger’s hands, and he was dragged away by a Mr. I.
One of the Clubbas opened the scroll and began reading.
My Dear Friend,
Dark times are upon us. As you know, the world is in great peril. There is but one hope if we wish to conserve life as we know it. A way to seal away the evil for at least 2,000 years. And…
"W..e .p!"
…the demon lords… magic crystals…
"Wa..ig., ge. Up!"
…Prophecy…
"It is time to accept your fate, Waluigi!"
Waluigi began to stir from his strange dream. The world around him slowly came into view as blurs of red, gray, and purple began forming objects. He noticed that his hands had been tied behind his back, and the wind was very hot.
As Waluigi came to see the world around him, utter shock coursed through his entire body. He was tied to a pole on a large, stone altar floating high in the sky, and all around him, Bub-ulbs and Swoopers were locked in fierce combat. The sky was red, with a ring of blackened clouds floating above them. There were mountains in the distance that appeared to be set aflame.
"Do not worry about the chaos, Waluigi," boomed a mysterious voice.
Waluigi looked ahead and saw a massive, shadowy figure surrounded by a magical barrier.
"I have you exactly where I want you," the voice said.
"Curse you, vile fiend!" yelled a voice from the other side of the pole. "I’ll never succumb to your evil!"
"Oh, I’ve forgotten to introduce you to my friend," the voice announced. "Waluigi, meet your co-prisoner, Flavio!"
"What have you done?!" Waluigi shouted at the mysterious figure. "What madness is this?!"
"It’s all as the Prophecy has predicted, is it not, Waluigi?" the voice asked.
Waluigi looked aside. "This… this isn't right…" He looked up towards the massive beast. "I know that voice…" he began, "and there's only one man twisted enough to do all this… Wise Wisterwood!"
The gigantic tree turned around and faced the anti-plumber, cackling heartily. The door embedded in his roots had an evil rune crafted in it and was glowing mysteriously. "You're more clever than I thought, Waluigi!"
"What's going on?" Flavio demanded. "What do you want with us?!"
"All will become clear in due time, my dear Flavio!" the tree chuckled. "For now, I want you to see what has become of your precious kingdom!"
Waluigi struggled to escape from the rope that bound him, but to no avail. It was probably knotted ten times, and was very tight!
Flavio looked at the rope, and suddenly an idea popped in his head. He wiggled the dagger in his pocket into the rope, slowly cutting it. Eventually, after thirty-two strokes, they were cut free!
Waluigi quickly reached for his lightsaber and pointed it towards the sinister tree.
"Thinking about resisting, are you?" Wisterwood laughed. "I wouldn't try it. Larry Koopa tried, and… well, let’s say he didn't have the best of luck!"
Flavio and Waluigi could only watch in awe as the darkness-fused Koopa rose from the ground, radiating a dark energy. His eyes glowed with a neon yellow light.
Wisterwood smiled. "Let the games… begin!"
*\\~//*//~\\*\\~//*-*\\~//*//~\\*\\~//*
The night was glowing with the starry lights as a rainbow light flashed with intense rays of magical shines and stars as the guardian of the cosmos descended from the majestic heavens to take form in his powered doll form. Yes, it was Geno, the star warrior of the Smithy wars. The blue-caped wonder stepped down on the frosting of the gigantic birthday cake. As Geno fully took form, the lights died down and all that could be seen were from the glow of the candles placed inside Peach's Birthday Cake. A large noise like a vacuum sounded in the dark.
"I was expecting to find you here," Geno said.
Gourmet Guy lifted his face from the pile of icing and slurped all the remains from his face with his Scooby Doo-sized tongue. "Geno, my old friend, it has been too long."
The Star Warrior smiled and winked. "I told you our paths would cross again." Geno's face turned from happy to very serious and sad. "But I come with dreadful news."
Gourmet Guy burped. "What on earth is it?"
Geno lowered his voice to but a whisper, "The time of prophecy draws nigh." After noticing his companion completely oblivious to the nature of said Prophecy, Geno continued further. "The Chaos Door is to be opened… and the War of the Two Kingdoms will begin."
Gourmet Guy ate another piece of cake. "Is this that thing you told me about?"
"Yes, my truest comrade." Geno looked over his shoulder and embraced the fat Shy Guy. "I must insist you take shelter, these plains will no longer be safe in little time. In fact… it might be too late."
Gourmet Guy shriveled. "Where will I go?"
"Lavalava Island. It is the only safe haven… there you will be protected by the Sphinx Boomerang Brother," Geno explained.
Gourmet Guy finished hugging the little, wooden man. "I will go there. But what will you do?"
Geno closes his eyes, obviously emotional. "I have something very important to do, I have to unlock the Crystal D-"
"AHHHH OWWWCH!" Gourmet Guy cried.
Geno opened his eyes suddenly and was shocked to see Gourmet Guy cut in half in front of him. "What?! NO! WHO DID THIS?!"
SMACK! Geno fell into the delicious cakey ground as a dark figure glided across the giant pastry and stopped suddenly before the downed Star Warrior.
"Geno… Look out… for… yourself…" Gourmet Guy muttered in his final breath.
Geno looked up with fiery eyes that evaporated the tears he was crying over his dead friend. He got a good look at the fiend who killed the Shy Guy… and screamed! For the fiend looked just like him, except with a dark red and black hat and evil, yellow eyes. He also carried a star-powered scythe with him that looked awesome as well as fearsome.
"YOU!" Geno cried.
"That's right, ME! Chaos Geno!" Chaos Geno introduced himself.
"BUT HOW! The Chaos Door isn't-" Geno shouted.
Chaos Geno slapped Geno into the torso of his big, fat, dead friend. "I don't need to follow any rules! Hya!" The blunt end of the scythe smashed into Geno's face and he began bleeding at the lips. "Now say goodnight, palllllllzy!"
Geno reacted quickly and shoved his hand forward, opening the arm cannon safely tucked away in his body. "Goodnight." With a brilliant flash of blue and white, Chaos Geno was thrown into the dark night, not dead but defeated. The Star Warrior’s hand reconstructed itself as he slowly got up and tended to his wounds. His eyes turned to the deceased masked Shy Guy beneath him, and a single tear went down his wooden face.
The candlelight on Peach's celestial birthday cake dwindled while Geno buried his lifelong friend in the buttercreme soil. Before he left, Geno moved an icing rose over the grave of the demised Gourmet Guy, and then rose into the stars. Meanwhile, the dark sunglasses and fedora-wearing Goomba, Agent Smithoshi, watched on for a single moment before disappearing into the void of green lines.
