Chapter 5: The Mirror Army

Mario was witnessing the mirror army come to the real world.

He watched hundreds of mirror Koopas, Goombas, and many other Bowser underlings come into the real world. Mario tried to phase everything out of his mind. He sat and tried to think of a plan.

"Mario," a voice said. "Can you hear me?"

"Who is this?" whispered Mario.

"This is Mr. Mason," Mr. Mason said.

"How can I hear you?" Mario asked.

"You remember when I washed your hat?"

"Ummm... no."

"Oh, that's right. You were still drowsy. Well, when you fell down the hole with the button, your hat was dirty. But when I washed it, I used special microphone soap for clothing that allows communication with another microphone. The BAG uses it."

"Wow, that's so cool!!! But remember me?"

"What about you?"

"I'M IN A CAGE AND THE MIRROR ARMY'S COMING OUT!!!"

Everyone stared at Mario.

Kamek said, "Maybe we should check up on him."

"Nah, he's a idiot. He's so big and fat and he doesn't have a good-looking face!" said Bowser.

Kamek snickered. "Like you do?"

"Uh... Mr. Mason? Are you still there?"  whispered Mario.

"Half-deaf from your last comment, but I'm still here. Anyway, about your escape, is the cage made out of magic?"

"Yes."

"Then the Anti-Jammin' Jelly I gave you should disable the magic. But please tell me you and the cage are levitated."

"Are you a mind-reader or something?"

"No comment. Anyway, is everyone under you?"

"Well, not Bowser and Kamek, but most of the army."

"Good. When you put the Anti-Jammin' Jelly on the cage, the cage should fall and crush them. Correct?"

"I guess."

"Good, now do it. Oh, and one more thing, the microphone soap is only temp-"

"Mr. Mason?"

Mario sighed. He was on his own again. Mario quickly put the Anti-Jammin' Jelly on the cage. The cage fell
and crushed everyone just as Mr. Mason had predicted. Mario heard mirrors shattering. Of course! Mirrors shatter! Mario ran as fast as his legs could carry him. He ran out of the castle for help. He ran home, where he found Luigi taking a nap.

"Luigi! Luigi! Wake up! An evil mirror army is taking over Plit!"

"I know, Bro, I know. Isn't it wonderful?"

"Wonderful?! Luigi, wake up!"

"I AM woken up, Brother. The mirror army is wonderful because I am part of it!"

Dark clouds shrouded Luigi. When the clouds cleared, they revealed Mirror Luigi.

"All right, Bro, are you ready to face extreme judgement?!"

Mirror Luigi jumped and smashed Mario to the ground.

"Luigi, have you forgotten I am better than you?"

Mario punched Luigi but missed.

"Not anymore."

Mario tried to shatter Mirror Luigi, but was still unsuccessful. Mario ran. He ran to Princess Peach's castle, but it was surrounded by the mirror army. Mario took out his cape and flew over it. He ran to Peach's room, where he saw Peach and Mirror Mario.

"Peach!" Mario cried.

"Mario!" Peach hugged him.

"Now let's defeat this impostor. Peach, you hit him in the back, I'll take the front."

"Okay."

Peach furiously started smacking Mirror Mario with golf clubs, tennis rackets, and frying pans. Mario started jumping on him and hitting him with his hammer. At one moment, when Mario smashed Mirror Mario with his hammer and Peach hit him with her frying pan, their foe shattered.

"Okay. We're finished," Peach said.

"No, we still have to take down the rest of the mirror army and stop Kamek and Bowser," Mario corrected.

"Well, if you're gonna be pessimistic..."

"Peach, do you have any jewels, and frying pans?"

"Uh, for what?"

"We need to make a giant frying hammer."

"Frying hammer?"

"Combination of frying pan and hammer. Remember? That's how we shattered Mirror Mario."

"Right. I'll get the jewels, you get the pans."

On Mario's way to the kitchen, he looked out the window. Bowser, Kamek, and the rest of the army was
outside.

When Mario met Peach again, he shouted, "Peach! Bowser's army is outside! We've got to hurry. Tell
your finest blacksmith to make hammers out of those jewels. And also tell him to make the pans harder."

"All right!"

Mario waited. By the time Peach came back with the pans and hammers, the mirror army had broken through the door.

"Now, Peach! Throw everything you've got!"

Peach and Mario started throwing their hammer-shaped pans. They heard loud screeching shattering. When
Mario threw one of his hammers at Kamek, Kamek took hold of the Sacred Mirror of Crystal Palace and held in it front his face, where the sacred mirror soon shattered. When it did, you could hear the vicious cries of
every mirror person. Every mirror person was sucked back into the mirror. Even Bowser and Kamek were gone. And since the mirror had shattered, none of them could ever come back.

"It's over, Peach. Let's eat some of your delicious cake."

"Sure."
 

Chapter 6: The End

Bowser shouted, "WHY, KAMEK?! WHY ARE YOU ALWAYS FAILING ME?!" Bowser started crushing Kamek and blowing fire on him.

"Oh... Lord Bowser..." Kamek moaned.

"Lord Bowser NOTHING!!! You are never returning to the Koopa Clan EVER AGAIN!!!"

"Oh... all right, Bowser... I'll just teleport out of here..."

"NO!!!"

Kamek vanished.

"Well, once again, Mario, you saved the day," sighed Peach.

"You helped, too!" Mario said.

"Well..." Peach blushed.

"Sorry, Princess, but I gotta go! See you soon!"

"Bye!"

Mario walked home. When he got there, he saw Luigi watching TV.

"Hey, Bro!" Mario greeted.

"Hey! The mirror army is awesome!" Luigi replied.

Mario was stunned. "What?!"

"Oh, you haven't heard about it? It's a new reality television show."

"Oh, I know about that. Let's watch."
