Chapter Nine: Meet the Kongs!

Our heroes had just arrived at Donkey Kong Island, home of the Kongs. Toon Link parked the Gangplank Galleon at a nice spot next to a treehouse.
"Okay, everyone! We've arrived at Donkey Kong Island, home of the species of vicious ape-gorilla that attacks all invaders to its territory; also known as the Kong!" Toon Link educated. Dimmington nudged Toon Link.
"Ahem, but that's my job, to educate everyone. This is MY tour, after all."
"Oh, right." Everyone jumped off the deck. Meanwhile, King K. Rool, General Kerozene, and Janitor Klump jumped into the water and swam over to the island.
"Bah! I'm all wet!" King K. Rool yelled out.
"But King K. Rool! Isn't that what swimming makes you?" General Kerozene asked.
"Why, thank you for that smart remark! You're demoted to Janitor again!" Then he turned to Klump. "Klump! You're promoted to General!"
"Yay!" General Klump yelled out.
"Grrrr..." Janitor Kerozene muttered. The trio carefully watched as Mario and his friends walked over to the treehouse.
Mario yelled out, "Anybody home?" No one answered.
"Oh well. I guess we can just help ourselves to the fridge!" Luigi said, licking his lips. "Boy, could I use some lasagna!"
"Wait!" King Boo stopped Luigi. "What if there's no fridge? You know how primitive ape-gorillas can be."
"Ape-gorillas?! Who are you calling ape-gorillas?! I'm a monkey, ya big weirdos!" Everyone looked up and gasped. A monkey with a Nintendo hat and a red T-shirt with stars on it jumped down and slid down a wooden slide. "Who are you?" he asked. Everyone introduced themselves. "What?! No way! YOU'RE the Mario that ol' Cranky Kong's always yapping about?"
"Cranky Kong?!" Mario asked. "But it was a Donkey Kong I fought! After all, the game's called Donkey Kong!"
"He changed his name, see?" Diddy Kong argued. "But anyways, what are all of you doing here?" Dimmington went forward.
"We are here to take the Ultimate Amulet, as we must keep it out of evil hands...aka king K. Rool."
"Oh! That pendant thingy? You want that? Well, you can have it! ...But you should ask Tiny Kong about it, she knows all about fashionable items."
"Oh. Then where is this 'Tiny Kong' you speak of?" Ganondorf asked the monkey.
"She's probably deeper in the jungle. Maybe she's at Cranky Kong's Lab. Oh, don't ask me. I'm a-go return to my treehouse. Bye-bye!" Then, Diddy Kong climbed back up the ladder of his treehouse and entered it.
"So much for help FINDING the lab..." Wario muttered angrily.

Luckily, within 5 minutes, our heroes found Cranky Kong's Lab, with the Kremlings trailing behind them...

"So, this must be it," Waluigi said.
"Yes... This HAS to be it, fools. It says so on the sign!" King Boo pointed to the sign that read 'Cranky Kong's Lab'.
"WOW!!! Stupid salami were we!" Fawful added. Then, the door opened up. Out came a slim ape-gorilla with a beanie and two pigtails. She had jumbo earrings and white fur wristbands. She wore a spaghetti-string top, sweatpants, and some sandals.
"Who are you weirdo-peopleo?" she asked them.
"Never mind that!" Dimmington shot a beam at her, and she caught on fire!
"AAAH!!!!" Tiny Kong ran around in circles before she disintegrated... But that wasn't all! Underneath was the original Tiny Kong, on stilts! "Bah! How did you guys discover that I never grew up?! GRRRR!!!!" Then, Tiny Kong jumped into the water and swam to shore.
"Okaaay..." Luigi said. Then, Mario opened the door to Cranky Kong's Lab.
"Who be you?" Cranky Kong asked. Then, his eyes widened and he got up from his rocking chair. "MARIO!!! It's been years. How dare you treat me like a circus animal! I'm a vicious ape-gorilla, after all!"
"You know, it's hard to be intimidated by a 'vicious ape-gorilla' that uses a stick to walk and has a beard.
"Well, you know... Aging... But anyways, what's your business here? State it!" Cranky Kong pointed his stick at Mario.
"You see, we're looking for the Ultimate Amulet. We're trying to keep it out of evil hands, including King K. Rool's," Mario explained.
"A-ha! Well, don't ask me. Go to the Angry Aztec, get to the main treasure chamber, and talk to Swanky Kong about it. Good night! It's time for my nap." Cranky Kong went back to his rocking chair, sat on it, and fell asleep almost immediately.
"Wow. He snores as heavy as how heavy a watermelon can be!" Fawful said. So, the crew (plus the Kremling Krew spying on them) crossed treachorous rivers, jungles, hijinxs, and canyons before finally reaching the Angry Aztec.
"Well, here it is," Wario said. Then, they entered the ancient ruins.

Traps: Rolling boulder, arrows being shot out of the walls, trapdoors, spikes in the ground, Swoopers, Swanky Kong's Quizzes, Chuck Quizmo's Quizzes, Thwomps, Whomps in the walls, Bullet Bills, quick-closing walls, fast-rising water, etc...

Eventually, everyone made it to the main treasure chamber of the Angry Aztec. They looked down and saw a weird ape-gorilla with a shiny smile, an afro, golden rings, and a blue coat. He also had a hunchback. Then, he looked up at our heroes.
"Hey! Welcome to my humble quiz abode! The name's Swanky Kong! You're the first ones to get here!" Swanky Kong introduced. "Are you here for this shiny pendant I'm wearing?" Everyone jumped down. They looked at his pendant.
"There it is, everyone," Dimmington whispered. "That's the Ultimate Amulet." Everyone gasped.
"So! You're here for it, aren't you? Then you'll have to beat me at my quizzes!" Swanky Kong gestured for the Kremling Krew to be the judges, since they equally hated both Swanky Kong and our heroes.
"What?! You've been following us?!" Ganondorf was shocked.
"Let the quiz begin! ...After you pick your quiz contestant!" Swanky Kong said. "Perhaps it's 'Mr. Video Game' himself, Mario? Or will it be the cowardly mansioneer, Luigi? Maybe it will be the informational tour guide, Mr. D. Dimmington? Or will it be super cool Baron Brrr? Maybe it's the Hero of Time, aptly named Toon Link? The King of Darkness, Ganondorf? Mini-Game designer Wario? Super cheater Waluigi? Mutated Piranha Plant named Petey Piranha? King of the Boos, King Boo? Beanish guy who's the assistant to the late Cackletta, Fawful? Readers, you decide!"
 
Chapter Eleven: Enter, Koopa Troop and Yoda!

"Not be so rude, but just give us the Ultimate Amulet!" Dimmington yelled out.
"Oh, all right. Here. I'm a-going to go nap in my quiz cave," Swanky Kong yawned. "Nighty night!" Then, the Kong walked out of the Angry Aztec but to his Quiz Cave.
At last, I have the Ultimate Amulet! Destroying the world will be a snap! Mua ha ha ha! Dimmington thought to himself. Then, Dimmington used the power of the Ultimate Amulet to make time go so fast that it became nighttime.
"Wow, it sure is late now, huh, Mario?" Luigi nudged his older twin.
"Yup," Mario replied. Suddenly, the wall burst down! "What in the Mushroom World?" Mario asked. Our heroes saw Bowser in his Koopa Clown Car among his elite minions.
"Hello, Marios, all other not-so-important characters, including rival kings K. Rool and Ganon. It is me, the great Koopa King Bowser!" Bowser laughed. "Now, elite minions! Grab that Ultimate Amulet from the purple clown-jester and hand it to me!" Bowser commanded.
"Yes, sir!" Captain Koopa, Idiot Goomba, Lieutenant Paratroopa, Weirdo Paragoomba, Hammer Bro., and Kamek saluted.
"Hey! You minions over there!" Bowser pointed at Petey Piranha and King Boo. "Come back here, you lackeys!" The duo nodded and switched to Bowser's side. "Bwa ha ha ha! Soon, my elite minions and lackeys will grab the Ultimate Amulet from that purple guy who looks oh-so-familiar!" The evil gleamed in Bowser's eyes.
"Oh no! Taking the Ultimate Amulet are they!" Someone said in the shadow of the corner.
"Who dat?" Wario asked.
"He's green, so he must know Fawful," Waluigi replied.
"Know? Fawful does not know! Green? Does he lack a hair-less face? He can not be the green moustache Fawful hates so!" Fawful replied.
"Then who is it?!" Baron Brrr asked. The character stepped forward.
"Yoda, am I. Keeper and protector of the Ultimate Amulet have I been, yes. 256 years has it been, mm-hmm, yes, indeed," Yoda informed everyone. "But let you have the Ultimate Amulet I can not. Great evil, in the heart of Dimmington, does it lie. So, use the Force must I to return it to me, yes, mm-hmm, correct." Then, Yoda used the Force to take the Ultimate Amulet out of Dimmington's hands.
"T-the Ultimate Amulet! Why, you old coot! It's mine!" Dimmington yelled out angrily.
"No, it's mine, ya old weirdo! Mine! King Bowser Koopa Sr.'s!" Bowser turned to his elite minions and lackeys. "Get it here!"
"Right, sir!" Then, the Koopa Troop ran towards Yoda. But, Yoda used the Force to push the troop back at Bowser and they flew all the way back to Dark Land. But, while Yoda was busy Forcing Bowser and his troop back to Dark Land, he did not notice Dimmington using his magic abilities to take the Ultimate Amulet.
"Grah! Ultimate Amulet, gone, it is!" Then, Yoda glared at Dimmington. "Have it, does the clown-jester."
"Tour members, I have an announcement," Mr. D. Dimmington said as he floated upwards. Mario, Luigi, Baron Brrr, Toon Link, Ganondorf, Wario, Waluigi, Fawful, King K. Rool, General Klump, Janitor Kerozene, Master Yoda, Diddy Kong, and Swanky Kong (whom had just returned from his Quiz Cave with Diddy) looked at him. "As you all know, my name is Mr. D. Dimmington. However, that is not my full name. As I've told most of you, I like to keep my first name classified. And here is my full name: Dimmington, Dimentio. But now that I have the Ultimate Amulet, I will destroy the universe!" Everyone gasped.

"Wait a second!" Mario said. "So, you were evil all along, and you wanted to use us as pawns to help you get the Ultimate Amulet!" Then, Luigi noticed something.
"Mario! Take a second to think. Remember everything that happened? When we arrived at the border a little early, he wasn't there! He teleported there when we weren't looking! And then, at the Gap of Ga-Hooligan, he used his magic to push us off the cliff! He also led us to the Gap of Ga-Hooligan because he wanted the Ga-Hooligans to eat us alive! Fortunately, we're renowned heroes of the Mushroom Kingdom, so we were spared. Then, at Ice Land, I bet he was thinking about using that gigantic ice cube we saw on our way out to crush us! Then, at Rogueport, he was the one who teleported us out of the inn!"
"You're right, Luigi! And don't forget about what happened in Super Paper Mario! After we destroyed his plan to destroy all worlds by using The Void... He wanted revenge, especially after we killed him!" Mario added.
"Quite correct, everyone. You're all smart," Dimentio clapped for our heroes. "Unfortunately, it is too late. Now that I am in possession of the Ultimate Amulet...I will use it to destroy the universe, one sixth of it at a time! Mua ha ha ha! Instead of a quick, painless death from being eaten by The Void, everyone in the universe will die slowly by being beamed to death! You see, this Ultimate Amulet shoots beams!"
"Noo! Not the Freezeflame Galaxy!" Baron Brrr cried out. "Please spare the Freezeflame Galaxy!"
"Thank you for your futile remarks, Baron," Dimentio said. "But now, thanks to you, I will destroy it first!"
"NOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!" he cried out some more. Then, Dimentio used his magic to keep everyone in place, disallowing them from warning anyone else.
"That's right, you're now immobile. And now, hope for the universe has been depleted! Mua ha ha!" Then, Dimentio shot a beam from his finger at Yoda, causing him to turn to stone. "Of course, I wouldn't let the other character here with magic powers be able to see and whatnot!" Mario glared at Dimentio.
"Will this be the end for our heroes?" Swanky Kong asked. "Find out in Chapter Twelve! Be there or be squa--" Dimentio turned Swanky into stone.
"Quiet, monkey-mouth!"
 
Chapter Twelve: The End

Everyone was immobile. Yoda and Swanky Kong were turned to stone. Everyone watched as Dimentio used the power of the Ultimate Amulet to shoot a beam in the direction of the Freezeflame Galaxy and its surrounding areas.
"Toodle-oo," Dimentio said before shooting the beam. Tears started bursting out of Baron Brrr's eyes.
Not the Freezeflame Galaxy! Baron Brrr thought to himself. Then, Dimentio turned him to stone.
"I just can't stand it when people cry," Dimentio said, shaking his head. He ever-so-slowly moved the beam to the left, as if he moved too fast parts of the universe would be missed and would not get destroyed.
I've gotta think of a plan, Mario thought, or the whole universe would be destroyed! So, Mario thought and thought while Dimentio destroyed and destroyed. But after 5 minutes of thinking, Mario still could not think of anything. By then, Dimentio had destroyed many, many galaxies. Maybe, Mario thought, the universe was supposed to be destroyed? Maybe we were all doomed from the beginning? Mario got sad and stopped thinking. Suddenly, Tiny Kong ran in and twirled her ponytails so she flew to Dimentio. Her hair knocked the Ultimate Amulet out of Dimentio's possession, but at the same time, slightly vaporizing Tiny Kong's ponytails.
"Noo! Not my favourite ponytails ever!" Tiny Kong cried out, clutching her hair.
"How dare you interrupt my destroying of the universe!" Dimentio yelled, shooting a beam at Tiny Kong that turned her to stone. Dimentio then looked around for his precious artifact. Once he noticed it, he tried to use his magic to make it come back to him, but someone else took it before him; also using magic. "Show yourself, you magical coward!" Dimentio yelled, looking around. Then, somebody in a blue robe with a pointed hat and a magic wand shot a beam at Dimentio; turning the crazy clown-jester into a statue. The robed character used the Ultimate Amulet to restore the universe back to its state before Dimentio even learned of the Ultimate Amulet; of course, the character made sure that Dimentio was still a statue at that time. The robed character then used magic to shoot the indescrutible artifact somewhere far away before disappearing without a trace.

"Hey Luigi, do you remember that time we found the Ultimate Amulet?" Mario asked Luigi.
"Uh, jaaaa! That was just yesterday!" Luigi said.
"Oh, right. Anyways, let's a-go visit Peach at her castle and tell them about our adventure!" Mario suggested.
"Great idea!" Luigi agreed. But before the two could leave their house, they decided to read a letter that had just arrived.

Dear Mario Bros.,
It's me, Toon Link! I'm going to tell you about what happened to everyone after the adventure. Baron Brrr returned to rule Ice Land, and he even decided to run for the spot of King of Freezeflame! About Wario, Waluigi, and Fawful, I heard they were going to open up a rip-off store in The Desert that Always Seemed to Be World 2. They'll sell common items for high places, but considering their location in the middle of nowhere...I bet they'd make billions! Anywho, Tiny Kong, Diddy Kong, and Swanky Kong returned to their regular life on Donkey Kong Island. Yoda decided to aid the Kongs on their various quests, too. I wonder how? Oh yeah! Me, Ganondorf, King K. Rool, General Klump, and Janitor Kerozene are going to sail the Gangplank Galleon around the 7 Salty Seas to not only search for my precious Zelda, but also to search for valuable treasure! But anyways, I should be done explaining about what happened to everyone. I hope to see y'all again someday!
The Great Green Sailor, Toon Link

Mario and Luigi nodded at each other, put the letter on the table, and headed to Peach's Castle...which was being attacked!

Meanwhile, in Dark Land...

"Oh, darn it all, Kammy Koopa! I heard that some character from another video game series made the Ultimate Amulet, like, disappear into thin air! Now how am I going to rule the world?"
"Oh, don't worry, Lord Bowser! I'm sure we'll think of a way!"
"You better be right about this, blargh!"
"Don't worry, I almost always am!"
"If you're not, you'll regret it, Kammy Koopa!"

Meanwhile, in a tent store that rips off its customers...

"Hey, Boss! You'd better come take a look at this thingy!"
"What is it now, Blooper?! Can't you see I'm busy?"
"Yeah, but this thingy here looks real valuable! Think we should sell it?"
"Hey now, that's the best idea you've ever made before, Blooper! It looks so expensive, we could sell it for at least 50,000,000 coins!"
"Yeah, Boss! Who knew that amulet-pendant thingies could be sold for so much?"

Stay tuned for the next installment in the Mario & Luigi story series: Mario & Luigi: Attack of the Beans!
