Morton is looking out the window. He
watches as Ludwig and Karma leave for a date.
Morton: I wonder if Ludwig and Karma
will get married…
Morton walks away and sees Larry and
Wendy arguing.
Morton: I wonder if they will ever
stop arguing with each other…
Morton continues and tries to get in
his room, but his door is broken.
Morton: I wonder if this castle will
ever be fixed.
He gets into his room and lies on his
bed.
Morton: I wonder what the future is
like.
Morton sighs as he rolls over and falls
asleep.
???: Morton… Morton…
Morton: Huh…huh?
Morton notices he is no longer in bed.
Now he is in…nothing. He is in the midst of nothingness.
Morton: Who…are you?
???: You can’t know yet… I have something
to tell you…
Morton: Yes?
???: Your family needs your help…
Morton: What can I do?
???: Wait and see…
A big white flash appears as Morton
is sent flying…
Morton wakes up in his bed again. But
it’s different. His bed seems to be in a closet and torn up.
Morton: What’s going on here?
Morton crawls out of the closet to
find himself in an old-looking Kastle Koopa. He enters the throne room
to see Ludwig on the throne. Beside him, where Clawdia usually is, Karma
is standing.
Morton: Huh?
A Koopatrol bows to Ludwig.
Koopatrol: Your Majesty…
Morton: What happened?!
Ludwig hears him.
Ludwig: Morton, why are you so young
again? Did you use my machine?
Morton: …? Ludwig, what’s going on?
Ludwig: Morton, don’t you remember?
I’m king of the Koopa Kingdom now. Dad died.
Morton: Poor King Dad…
Ludwig: King Dad? Ha! I haven’t heard
Dad being called that in 50 years!
Morton: F-f-f-f-fifty years?! Ludwig,
what year is this?!
Ludwig: 2061…
Morton: I…I…I was just in 2011…
Ludwig: …Excuse me?
Morton: I was in 2011, and now I’m
in 2061!!!
Ludwig: …So you aren’t the same Morton
as the Morton who lives in this day and time?
Morton: I guess not.
Karma: Ok then. Allow me to recap,
so you will know what happened…
It zooms to around 2020. Bowser
is coughing and wheezing, even though he is only 55.
Ludwig: King Dad, are you ok?
Kamek: Your father is very sick,
Ludwig.
Bowser: Ludwig…I need…you to take…over
the kingdom…
Bowser falls over and dies.
Kamek: Ludwig…you are the only one
with a queen who is old enough to takeover. Please, we need you to rule
over us.
Ludwig: I accept.
Ludwig informs his siblings and
Karma.
Morton: So that’s why Ludwig is king
now. But…is anyone else married?
Karma: Lemmy married Lizzy. Iggy moved
away, Roy died a year ago in a horrible accident, and Wendy and Larry disappeared.
Morton: What about me?
Karma: You have gotten over your talking
habits and are the host of the famous radio show Koopas and You.
Morton: Ooh! I love that radio show!
Karma: Want me to cancel it until you
get back to the past?
Morton: Sure.
Karma informs the radio people of this.
Morton: Ludwig, where are Lemmy and
Lizzy?
Ludwig: Currently on their honeymoon.
They’ll be back next week.
Morton: Where did Iggy move?
Ludwig: He said he was heading to Sarasaland.
Daisy quit ruling there so she could marry Luigi, after all.
Morton: Are Mario and Peach married?
Ludwig: No, Peach died in an accident
with the castle last week.
Morton: Oh. Who’s ruling the Mushroom
Kingdom?
Ludwig: They’re trying to decide between
Daisy and Mario.
Morton: Oh. When did you last hear
from Iggy?
Ludwig: Before he moved.
Morton: Wendy and Larry?
Ludwig: I heard them making plans to
get away a year ago.
Morton: Oh.
Ludwig: You can stay in the guest room
for now.
Morton: Ok.
Morton begins to walk off, but then…
Morton: What about Susan, Nick, Jon,
and Wart? Oh yeah, and Kamek?
Ludwig: Susan ran away when she heard
Larry had disappeared, Nick is now ruling over Sub-con, Jon’s spending
his life playing video games, and Wart died.
Morton: And Kamek…?
Ludwig: Kamek went with Iggy.
Morton: Oh.
Morton goes to the guest room and falls
asleep.
???: Morton…Morton…
Morton: Stop bothering me!!!
???: You need to go to Sarasaland…
Morton: Why?!
???: It’s for your future…
Morton sighs…
The next morning he wakes up and gets
on an airship and flies to Sarasaland. But on his way, he sees a crashed
airship. He lands on the water and looks at the ruins.
Morton: No…It’s…
It’s what?
Morton: (sniffle) Iggy’s airship.
Morton dives under and looks inside.
He sees a dead crew, including Iggy and Kamek.
Morton: No…
???: You can prevent this…
Morton: How?
Morton finds himself in the ocean by
Sarasaland, but this time Iggy’s airship is still in the sky.
Morton: Ok. Now what?
Morton notices Moltz flying through
the sky. Moltz is going to hit the airship! Morton uses his wand and teleports
Moltz past the airship.
???: Very good…
Morton is now in his bed again. He
hears Ludwig on the phone.
Ludwig: Glad to know you made it safely,
Bro... I’ll inform Lemmy ASAP. All right, keep in contact. K. Bye.
Morton: Who was that?
Ludwig: Iggy. He just arrived in Sarasaland.
Morton: Oh.
???: Now…head to Mushroom Castle.
Morton: ?
???: *sigh* Peach’s Castle.
Morton: Oh.
Morton jumps in his airship the next
morning and flies to Toad Town. He sees the castle is being rebuilt.
Morton: What happened here?
???: Look down below.
Morton sees pieces of an airship.
Morton: Huh…
He flies down and looks at it.
Morton: It’s Lemmy’s…Lemmy and Lizzy
must be dead.
???: That is correct…
Morton: Can I prevent this?
Morton finds himself on Lemmy’s airship.
He notices the gas gauge is low.
Morton: Lemmy, we’d better land. The
gas gauge is low.
Lemmy: Oh, thank you, Goomba.
Morton cringes at being called a Goomba.
Lemmy: We might’ve crashed if you hadn’t
informed me.
Lemmy lands the ship.
???: Good…
Morton is at the castle again. Ludwig
is once again on the phone.
Morton: Who is it now?
Ludwig: Lemmy and Lizzy. Lemmy was
informing me that one of his Goombas saved his life.
Morton nods happily, then goes back
to sleep.
???: Now…
Morton finds himself on a mountaintop.
He notices a strand of blue hair.
Morton: Blue…hair?
Suddenly, a DNA tester appears in his
hands. He tests the blue hair.
Morton: Why must all my siblings die?
It’s Larry’s.
???: Exactly.
Morton: Now what?
Morton finds himself standing next
to Larry. Larry is sobbing and is about to jump off the cliff.
Morton: Larry! No!!!
Larry jumps and a rope appears around
his waist. Morton grabs this rope and almost falls off as well, but catches
Larry just in time.
Morton: Larry!!!
Larry: …Morton?
Morton: What’s wrong with you?! Jumping
off a cliff?! You know better than that, it’s crazy to…
Hours later…
You know, that’s the first time Morton
was talkative. Anyway…
Morton: …and that’s how the classic
sneaker was invented.
???: …How did he get from jumping off
a cliff to how the sneaker was invented?
Larry: Don’t ask. Anyway, Morton, pull
me up?
Morton: Oh. Right.
Morton pulls Larry up.
Larry: Wait…How are you young again?
Morton: Um…um… Time machine.
Larry: Oh.
Morton: Anyway, why did you jump off
the cliff?
Larry: It’s a long story…
Flashback
Bowser is on his throne. Larry enters.
Larry: Dad, since Roy is dead, shouldn’t
I become king?
Bowser: WHAT?! I don’t want a weak
son as ruler of my kingdom! And besides, why do I need a replacement?!
I’m invincible! I’LL NEVER DIE!!!
Larry: But…weak?!
Bowser: You heard me! You’re weaker
than Iggy! Now get out of my throne room!
Larry runs away sobbing.
End Flashback
Morton: But…where’s Wendy?
Larry: Well…
Flashback
Larry and Wendy are talking.
Wendy: Called you weaker then Iggy?
(snicker)
Larry: Hey!
Wendy: Sorry, sorry. Anyway, he
wouldn’t give me 500,000,000,000 dollars to buy a new pair of shoes!!!
Wendy begins sobbing. Ludwig peeks
around a corner.
Larry: …500,000,000,000 dollars?!
Wendy: That’s not the point. Anyway,
I wanna run too!
Larry: All right. Tomorrow, we’ll
get on my airship and leave.
Larry hears Ludwig running and whirls
around.
Larry: Um…Let’s wait awhile longer.
Wendy: ?
Different Flashback
Larry and Wendy are on Larry’s airship.
Wendy is looking over the side.
Wendy: Are we there yet?
Larry: No…
They hit some turbulence. Wendy
is still looking over the side.
Larry: Sis, watch ou-
The airship bumps and Wendy falls
over. She grabs onto the side.
Larry: Sis!!!
Larry runs to help her, but before
he gets there they bump again and Wendy falls.
Larry: No!!!
Larry cries.
End Flashback
Morton: So…Wendy’s dead?
Larry: Yes…
Morton: Well, I’ll take you back to
the castle. I’m sure Ludwig will let you be at least vice-king.
Larry: Thanks, Bro.
Morton and Larry walk over to the other
side of the mountain and ??? makes Morton’s airship appear. The two fly
back to the castle. Ludwig comes out to meet them.
Ludwig: Hi, Morton! Hi… LARRY?!
Larry: Yeah, it’s me.
Ludwig: Where have you been?! You know
better than to…
Hours later…
Ludwig: …and that’s why you shouldn’t
jump off cliffs.
???: At least his made sense.
Morton: (grumble)
Ludwig: Anyway, where’s Wendy?
Larry: Um…That’s the thing.
One explanation later…
Ludwig: …Oh.
Ludwig and Larry go inside. Morton’s
airship disappears again.
Morton: How can I save Wendy?
???: Wait and see…
Morton is teleported to Soda Lake.
Up above he sees several clouds and can barely see Larry’s airship.
Morton: She’s about to fall! Um…um…
He sees a Blooper and grabs it, using
it as a sheet. Wendy falls and lands on the Blooper.
Wendy: EW! What is this?!
Blooper: BLOO! Bloop bloo bloop?! (OW!
What was that?!)
Morton: Um…
Wendy: Morton? Why are you young?
Morton: Long story. Come on, I…uh…invented
a teleporter!
??? warps Morton and Wendy to the castle.
Ludwig and Larry come out to meet them.
Ludwig and Larry: WENDY?!
Morton warps away.
Wendy: Yeah.
Larry: But…you fell off the airship!
Wendy: I landed on a Blooper and Mort-
Wendy notices Morton is nowhere in
sight.
Wendy: …Maybe I was imagining Morton.
Morton finds himself in the nothingness.
This time, however, he can see the silhouette of ???. He looks like this:
Morton: Wait, what about Roy?
???: Rescuing Roy will ruin your family,
not save it, due to the fact that Roy will murder Ludwig and steal the
throne.
Morton: Oh. Now, can I see who you
are?
???: Of course.
??? appears. He is…
Morton: *gasp*
