Description: in Victorian-like Mushroom Kingdom, when Mario gets 'kidnapped' by pirates, SMG4 and Luigi must embarc on a life changing adventure, unknown to the fact that their quest is going to change the world as well.

PROLOGUE

He had NO IDEA how he got himself wrapped up in a situation like this.

He was just a screenplay writer, trying to live his life and get by with his work.

And now, there he was, on top of a sinking ship, freezing waters crashing against and passing through the vessel, rain from a restless storm pouring down on him, and facing down a gigantic beast a hundred times his size.

His hand, a death grip on the mast, was almost slipping away because of the incessant water on him- or was it because of fear?

Trembling, he could hear through the constant ringing in his ears an all too familiar voice shouting at him, one he’s been hearing incessantly these last few days, and yet, he just about decided he wanted to hear it for the rest of his life.

An obscured limb raised up against him- against them all- ready to swing down on them, keen on obliterating everything on its path.

In the face of certain death, those past few months of his life flashed before him, leaving him breathless at the sheer amount of events that brought him there.

------------------------------------------------------------------------------

People believed that living in the Mushroom Kingdom was all sunshine and rainbows, when in fact it was the complete opposite.

Trying to maintain a normal lifestyle was arduous in a kingdom that seemed to always evolve and never stop, and SMG4 knew that first hand.

Despite being a gentleman from noble origins, the struggle he lived with everyday with founding new ideas for his plays was becoming more and more stressful.

The fact that he wanted to focus on comedy instead of the more wanted drama and romantic themes kinda dragged down his own chances at becoming more popular.

He would spend lots of afternoons roaming the busy streets of the kingdom, searching for inspiration.

Watching humans and toads alike going about their hard lives, trying to get by.

He would shake his head, frustration running through his veins and flaring up his nerves.

He believed the Mushroom Kingdom, with its continuous changes, to be the perfect place to start off his career, but EVERYONE here was so CLOSED OFF STILL.

How could he get through to them? How could he let his talent shine, attracting them to see his plays?

Speaking of people, he noticed some commotion as he strolled around the plaza.

A crowd of some sort had formed around a corner; they were cheering, laughing at something- or someone- that he couldn't really see, due to the amount of people present.

As he approached the cheering citizens, his eyes lit up at what he witnessed.

A pair of men, two brothers he believed, were performing acts of comedy and telling jokes, keeping the audience they had gathered captivated.

They were foreign, he could tell, as the thick accent reverb in their joyful voices. Their clothes dirty and broken in places, but the glint in their eyes lightning up whatever state their physical form were at the moment.

SMG4 remained astonished: he could smell talent a mile away, and he believed he had just stepped a mine full of gold with these two.

Maybe that’s what he needed! A new pair of actors! The realization hit him like a bolt of lightning, excitement at the possibilities that these two would bring to his career.

After everyone had scattered, he approached, and while they remained wary, he simply clapped cheerfully.

"Bravo! You boys put on quite the show! I'm really impressed!"

The two men simply glanced at each other, unsure at how to respond to him.

He WAS a stranger after all, albeit way more younger than them.

The man in green smiled gracefully, while remaining nervous: “Thank you, signore! It’s-a so nice to see people enjoy our little play- despite making only so much money out of it.”

He glanced down at the hat placed for coins, only half full despite all the people that came to see them previously.

The red man clapped the taller one rather strongly, as the other yelped and staggered: “Don’t-a worry, Luigi! This is enough to get ourselves plenty of spaghetti!”

Luigi deadpanned in dismay at his compatriot’s antics: “We have to worry about something else other than spaghetti, Mario! We still don’t have a place to sleep!”

Mario bonked him to the head, clearly displeased and angry: “Don’t you ever-a say that again about my precious spaghetti! You get me those plates right now!”

Weirded out by this odd display, SMG4 silently just stared at them, before snapping out of it, an idea forming in his head.

He bowed down, a gleam in his eye: “My name is SMG4, and I’d like to offer you both an opportunity. How would you fine gentlemen like a better stage than the dirty streets of the Mushroom Kingdom?”

------------------------------------------------------------------------------

After meeting the Mario Brothers, SMG4’s career stirred towards a rather interesting and promising path.

Figuring out how to place them in his plays through observing their personalities and behaviors was easy, actually.

Mario seemed rather stupid and slow, only caring about food at ALL times. He also seemed to have a charm for attracting odd crowds to him.

He didn’t know HOW he did it, but for some reason one day when they were hanging out together to figure out the next script, a rather disturbing magical creature had approached them, scaring Four and Luigi out of their minds, while Mario simply waved cheerily and talked to it like it was NOTHING.

He had revealed to have met and made friends with many of them, despite the fact that it was BANNED to by the laws of the kingdom.

For the sake of his career, Four decided to keep that for himself.

After all, Mario was the face man of the duo.

Luigi, on the other hand, had served a role more or less like a voice of reason. His calm and sometimes cowardly nature had decided it as such, in sheer contrast to his brother’s loud personality.

Both of them, especially Mario, would try talk to him on how to do some parts of the scripts, and while he listened and was glad for it, sometimes it got to his nerves.

It didn’t help that they were ALWAYS attached to his hip. It made him mad, especially because of Mario’s stupidity and incessant blabbering and Luigi’s nerves always being on edge- dude couldn’t take a STEP and he would jump at every single sound he heard.

However, the pros greatly outweighed the cons, as his popularity had slowly started to grow once he introduced them to the theater world.

The crowds would start off small, but in time that quickly changed, to the point that nobles and the Princess herself would show up to come watch his plays.

Oh, he was ecstatic! He couldn’t believe his luck when she first came! With her present, it was certain he was going to reach levels he couldn’t possibly imagine before!

If only everything went smoothly-

But life apparently wanted to kick him one more time, as during the main scene, an enormous hole opened up on the ceiling of the theater, as debris came down crashing on everyone.

And along that, something else.

Pandemonium erupted as a beast stood up, spiny shell and big crown rested on its head.

A booming voice echoed through the room: “Princess Peach! Ruler of the Mushroom Kingdom! I, Lord Bowser, ruler of all magical creatures beyond the borders, came to demand your hand in marriage!”

The blonde woman stood up, snaring at him with cold eyes: “How many times do I have to refuse your request, you ignorant brute?! I would NEVER marry a magical creature, ESPECIALLY not one that looks like you!”

The koopa tried to hold back his tears once again at behind rejected- apparently it wasn’t the first time, go figure- as he pleaded once again: “My sweet, please be reasonable! Think of how powerful our kingdoms would become if we just joined in out union-”

“Hey!”

The voice startled everyone, including the two fighting monarchs, out of their stupor.

The main actor, Mario, was standing near the pile of rubble where the king was, puffing his cheeks out in annoyance.

“Bowser! You could-a chosen any other day to do this! Why are you doing it NOW?!”

The beast reeled back, surprised: “Mario?”

Four sputtered flabbergasted at this information: “YOU KNOW THE KING OF KOOPAS?!”

The Italian man just rolled his eyes: “Beh, si. We’ve hanged around a lot when me and my bro came in through the borders. He is a fine fellow-” and then returned his icy glare back to him; “-when he’s not trying to stop me from working AND EARNING MY FAIR SHARE OF SPAGHETTI!”

Bowser grunted, a bit embarrassed: “Oh, hehe… sorry friend. I didn’t think I would disturb you. I’ll- take my leave now”

He then pointed at the princess, letting out a roar in determination: “This isn’t over!” and promptly left, as everyone stood shell-shocked at the scene that just played before them.

The most shocked out of all of them was certainly Peach, who regathered herself and huffed reverently. After thinking about it and coming up with a decision, he pointed down to the three men on the stage.

“You! Down there! You said your name was Mario, right?”

The mustached man crossed his arms: “Yep. That’s-a me. What’s it to you?”

“You seem rather… acquainted with the Lord of Koopas. Care to explain to me why?” she continued, a sneer on her lips.

He blinked owlishly: “I already said, we’ve been friends before crossing the border”

“And you DO know that interacting with magical creatures is STRICTLY PROHIBITED HERE, RIGHT?”

“I don’t-a see the problem” he simply remarked, without blinking.

“MARIO!” both Luigi and SMG4 whispered loudly in reprimand, one full of fear and one out of frustration.

Peach hummed, her fan closing shut with a snap: “I have decided. Mario, I would make your crimes against the laws of the Mushroom Kingdom fall IF you accept to become my bodyguard and ‘messenger’ to all magical creatures outside the border” she smirked winningly; “if you don’t want to lose your job and end up banned from the kingdom alongside your brother, THIS is an offer you can’t decline.”

The Italian man, alongside the other two, could only look astonished at such a turn of events.

“Mama-fucker.”

------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Despite the way everything happened so fast, SMG4 did nothing but continue to make his plays with the Mario Bros.

The only issue was, now Mario always had to follow around the princess at ALL TIMES, making it difficult for him to program when to make his plays.

A good thing to this was the amount of publicity it had gotten.

Despite making less plays, the crowds would be enormous.

Four was so busy with everything, that he didn’t even notice the way Mario was acting.

Always pissed off, and sometimes downright depressed.

Luigi had caught his vacant stares sometimes, that would only fade once he placed a plate of spaghetti in front of him, but only shortly.

He tried to confront him about it, only for him to just turn away and leave.

The man in green decided it was time to face his screenplay writer about it, given that, despite his behavior, he had slowly started to become more friends with his bro, before this whole situation.

But SMG4 was having none of it.

“Look, I don’t care if he’s not feeling up for it! Once he’s returned from the castle, tell him to come here immediately, because we have rehearsals in an hour!”

Luigi backed up, feeling shocked and really offended at how both of them were treated: “SMG4, please! We can’t keep going like this! Mario DIDN’T WANT SOMETHING LIKE THIS WHEN HE CAME HERE IN THE KINGDOM! We just wanted to get by with our talent, not be part of the royal life!”

“WELL, I DIDN’T CHOSE THAT EITHER!” Four yelled, slamming down his journal; “Look, our trio was meant to be just that, and to focus on making it big on the theater scene! And we have it now, despite the princess being a PAIN IN OUR ARSE. He’s not the only one struggling with this novelty, so PLEASE JUST TELL HIM TO ACT MATURE FOR ONCE AND OWN UP TO HIS DUTIES.”

He stood up, and walked away in search for a glass of water.

Luigi deflated and exited the room.

Had he been swifter, he would have noticed a red jacket disappearing behind the halls.

Had he noticed, he would have probably done something to prevent the insane chain of events that lead up to a world changing catastrophy.

Smg6, what type of cool stuff do you do in this circus? And also ready for a joke?

Ehem..

What do you get when you cross a clown and a goat?

A SILLY BILLY!

Hehe :3

-🕹🎭

BLOOD WARNING!!

We have all kinds of things! Like rides, Food.. And! Mini Games!

Ohh! The mini games were some of my favorites! I more watched however..

You want to explain my mini game Sia?

Yeah. That got your attention didn't it.

Don't tell me you forgot?

Well?

I haven't forgotten I just don't like to think about it

You don't like to think about it?! I WENT THROUGH IT! I HAVE THE SCARS!

You may have the scars but.. YOU DIDN'T WATCH AS THE WORLD GLITCHED MAKING YOU WATCH IT OVER AND OVER.

>said event:

Lore:

Six had been experiencing the day as normal, or as normal as the circus can be. Then, it was time for the mini game to happen.

Bowser had come up offering to go against everyone to see who the strongest was, because clearly no one was stronger than him.

Everyone had done a challenge before getting to the main event. The two that made it to the end were Meggy and Smg3. They both had to challenge Bowser in an arm wrestling match at the same time. First to beat Bowser wins.

Meggy had won. Smg3, he lost and something.. Glitched. Browsers eyes had changed to a hot pink, the sky glitching out as if a program was failing. Then Bowser attacked Three, pinning him to the ground.

Three had tried to fight against Bowser "Hey! Come on man! We're friends what the hell!"

It wasn't a long fight as Bowser had clawed at Three's arms, and even bit his stomach. Three was losing too much blood to fight back at this point. Eventually.. Three had died. Bowser then gained control of himself afterwards.

Six watched it all, frozen in fear as the one he adored died. He knew this wasn't real.. He knew it was bound to happen

But it was different. He didn't plan this one. And when he decided to run up to Three after he died everything froze. He woke up again. The day had restarted.

Six was confused but tried to stop what happened. The first time he interfered, it restarted. He went through the day maybe 20 times...? He had lost count. His emotions had been building up until one last time he went through the day and just.. Exploded. A green light coming from him, spiralling around him, and those close to him, but especially around Puzzles who was standing next to him.

The world froze again, but this time, Puzzles and Six could talk.

"Starlight..? What just happened?" Puzzles had kneeled down to be at the same level as Six, since Six was on the ground.

Six spoke through his sobs, "I- I don't know! I- the magic it just-"

"Magic?! Don't tell me you used the magic I gave you for this! I told you, you need a source for it! Or things like this could happen!"

"I know I'm sorry! I forgot! And I know, it's not something I should've forgotten.. It's just.. I thought if you could make Puzzlevision I could make my thing without risk of... Brainwashing everyone..."

"Six... It's ok, I mean it's not ok clearly because something happened for the world to freeze like this and you to be sobbing.. But you know what I mean.."

"Polaris I-"

Then the day had reset. Six let everything play out for the final time. He tried to act as everything was fine, saying the same things as the first time. Everything was fine now.. Except Three was still... Dead in a way.. He'd come back after the event was complete but for now? His mind was saying he was dead
