This Koopa ran over to a tree. Under this tree two hooded figures stepped out of the shadows. ?- Warlock?... Isss that you? Jr.K Warlock- YES! ??- Have you done what we wanted? Jr.K Warlock- Yes! Yes already! Toad Town is flooded with piranha plants! Do you have what I want? One of the figures reaches in his cloak and pulls out a beaker of liquid. The glint of an axe can be seen under the cloak. Jr.K Warlock- Give it to me! Warlock eagerly grabs the beaker and his grin grows even bigger. Jr.K Warlock- Yes! ??- Now be gone with you! Jr.K Warlock runs off into the forest. ?- Do you think giving thissss to him was a good idea? ??- Ha! He will probably blow himself up trying to use it! All we have to worry about now is if the piranha plant invasion attracts any axems. ?- I sssure hope it will, or all thissss will have been a wassste. /\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\ Earlier that day... Near Bowser's Castle A few Koopa patrols were bugging a stubborn old Toad. Koopa Patrol 1- You better pay. Koopa Patrol 2- Every one has to pay the toll to pass. Koopa Patrol 3- Yah! Plus we get part of it for a tip. Toad- NEVER! 100 coins just to pass? No way! Koopa Patrol 1- Why not? Koopa Patrol 2- It's a very good cause. Koopa Patrol 3- What he said. Toad- I won't pay! I'll just find another way to get were I'm going. I earned this money, unlike you three. Goodbye! The toad turns to leave. The Koopas look at each other. Koopa Patrol 1- We can't let you do that. Koopa Patrol 2- I'm afraid it's against the rules. Koopa Patrol 3- Yeah! How am I gonna buy a pizza tonight without my tip? Toad- What!? That's illegal! You're robbing me! So you have better leave me alone or I will report you to the police. Koopa Patrol 1- Illegal? Koopa Patrol 2- Bowser makes the rules. Koopa Patrol 3- Bowsers my hero... ???- I'm sorry, I agree with the Toad. That sounds pretty illegal to me. An axem walks up to the Koopa Patrols. This axem is seemingly made out of fire. This axem is Axem Inferno. Koopa Patrol 1- Is that an... axem? Koopa Patrol 2- I've never seen one, but it might be. Koopa Patrol 3- Umm... you have to pay too... I think... Inferno- I have to pay, huh? Inferno opened the hand he wasn't using to hold his axe. A sword made out of flame appeared in it. The Koopa Patrols stared at him, terrified. Inferno- BOO! Koopa Patrol 1&2&3- AHH! The Koopa's ran off, tripping over each other. Toad- Do I have to pay YOU? Inferno laughed. Inferno- No, you're free to go. /\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\ BOWSER'S CASTLE Bowser- WHAT? WHERE IS THE TOLL MONEY! Koopa Patrol 1- Um... there was a problem. Koopa Patrol 2- A obstacle of a sort. Koopa Patrol 3- Eep. Bowser- WHAT kind of obstacle?! Koopa Patrol 1- One with an axe. Koopa Patrol 2- An axem, I think. Koopa Patrol 3- A scary one made out of flame. Bowser- That's the second time in the last 3 days! A axem ruining my fun! Koopa Patrol 1- You could go after it. Koopa Patrol 2- Smash it to bits. Koopa Patrol 3- I wanna be a Axem... Bowser- That would take too long, there are more than one... He snapped his fingers. Bowser- I've got it! /\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\ TOAD TOWN PATH Blue runs down the path, slashing piranha plant's as he goes. He dodges seeds fired at him as he struggles to get to what seems to be the source of the problem: Toad Town. The parade of plants gets thicker and thicker the closer he gets. Soon he can barely walk through them all. He jumps up in the tree tops, running along branches. The going is still not easy. Piranha plant seeds fired liked bullets ricochet above and below him. Then, from not far up ahead, he hears a scream. /\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\E/\/D\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\ |
