I'm so excited, the last chapter! DUN DUN DUN! XD

Mario and Luigi were about halfway to Silia when they saw a strange ship coming their way. It looked familiar, but the brothers knew it wasn't. Upon further inspection the two brothers saw two Koopas, a father and son, but these weren't just any koopas... it was Bowser!

"Oh, they're going to get it!" Luigi balled up his hands into fists and shook it.

Mario turned around once more and followed the trail of the koopa's until he realized something. Turning around he asked his brother, "Hey, do you think they're heading for the Mushroom Kingdom?"

Luigi looked surprised, "Wow, they are! I wonder what they're up too?"

The two brothers saw a world up ahead, and a very familiar one at that, it was the Mushroom Kingdom.

Bowser rolled is eyes, "Yes, I know they're following us!" He wanted to yell at his son, but he knew things could get messy if he did.

"Aw, but they're right there!" Bowser Jr. whined, "I want to mess with them!"

One of Bowser's minions came up to him, and reported shakily, "We are boarding into the Mushroom Kingdom."

Bowser nodded and yelled, "I can see it right in front of me!"

The goomba shuddered and retreated.

Bowser's ship came into the orbit of the planet and suddenly it looked as though they would hit the ground of the oh so beloved Kingdom. Bowser stopped, and his ship came up to a complete rest, and fortunately, for him, it rested right were the Comet Observatory had parked.

Rosalina gasped and looked up into the air, a strange ship was flying right above them, and in an instant it had stopped on the ground a few feet from them.

Jenette shook her fist as the King of the Koopas emerged from the aircraft, and Peach stuck out her tongue. Immediately the two stopped upon realizing that he was carrying a very dear friend to them... Daisy.

A sound emitted from the skies once more and the group looked up to see the starship the Mario brothers occupied land on the opposite side of the Observatory.

Claire sighed in relief, and then clapped as the brothers ran out and pounced and Bowser, "Give me back Daisy!" Luigi yelled.

Bowser laughed, "Ah, she'll be fine. If I get what I want. Jr..." The Koopa pointed his hand toward the group and Bowser Jr. nodded. Taking out his trusty brush he waved it into the air. Within a few seconds a paint wall protected the Koopas, only something powerful would be able to break it, but while in this bubble the Koopas could do anything without even the slightest hindrance. Daisy was left behind them, and she sat weakly against their ship.

Bowser walked right past the two brothers, and the shield knocked them down.

"Oh, no..." Peach put her hand to her mouth and gasped, suddenly she yelled at Bowser, "What are you planning on doing, you big galoot!"

Bowser laughed at the princess, "You know, you're very foolish." Still walking forward the Koopa advanced toward the Comet Observatory.

Rosalina went in his way, and to her surprise she seemed to stick to the bubble instead of bounce off like the brothers. At first, she looked at this as a good thing, it had stopped the Koopas from advancing, but in a few moments she began to feel herself getting weaker, and she started to moan in agony.

Jennette pointed a finger at Bowser, "Hey, stop!" She ran at him, and high heel in the ready, smacked the bubble they were safely standing in, but all she did was fly backward, "Woah!" She caught her balance and glared.

As if out a nowhere a small yellow orb began to form above Rosalina, and Claire choked up, "They're sucking away her energy!" She jogged to the poor girl and tried to pull her from the painted mass, but it was no use.

Rosalina dropped onto the ground and inhaled big gasps of air. "W-w-what... W-w-." She fainted.

Now a medium sized orb of energy floated inside the protected bubble of Bowser, reaching out to touch it he sighed, "You know, that was easier than I thought..." He had made it to the Comet Observatory, and he held out his hands. The energy crackled and then, as he pushed his hands outward, it shot toward the ship.

Crying out, Claire jumped in the way of the lightning, and then lay on the floor, completely silent.

"Claire!" Mario, Luigi, Peach, and Jennette all said at once. Daisy lips formed the words, but she was still to weak to actually say them. Rosalina was just getting up, and her face was a mix of hurt and sadness.

Jennette, Peach, and the brothers rolled up their sleeves as Bowser threw an outrageous fit, "WHY DID SHE GET IN THE WAY! YOU JUST RUINED EVERYTHING!" The King pointed a finger at the collapsed lady.

The gang was ready to burst that bubble, it didn't matter if they failed anymore, they just had to try.

A gasp was suddenly heard and the group turned to see Claire, she was having a coughing fit, and her aura around her seemed strong and powerful. Her eyes glowed yellow as she sat up, and then she began to float in the air. Screaming from pain and tears streaming down her face she out the energy she had held inside, and it all rushed to Bowser.

Bowser yelled as his bubble popped and he fell to the ground.

"Papa!" Bowser Jr. had been watching with a smirk, but what had just happened left the little king silent.

"RETREAT!" A shy guy in charge eyed the good guys, "We'll be back, we will win!" A group of baddies carried their King to their own Air Craft and they were off, never to be seen in the Mushroom Kingdom for quite some time.

The place surrounding the group was in ruins, and sadness tore at their hearts.

With the little strength she had Rosalina ran to her mother and collapsed on the ground next to her, "Mother, oh mother! Why did you do that?"

Claire lifted a weak hand to Rosalina's chin and smiled, "Because I care about you, and what's important to you is very important to me."

"But you're important to me!" Tears rolled down her cheeks and her mother wiped them for her.

"I'll be leaving you soon, but please know I will always be watching you...-" Claire was cut off by Rosalina.

"From the stars..." Rosalina shuddered and cried again, "Please, please don't go."

Claire nodded, "I know this is hard for you Rosalina, but promise me you will look for me in the sky."

Rosalina choked on her own words, "Don't worry, I know you'll shine brighter than the rest." She smiled weakly as tears began to stream down her face.

Claire suddenly stopped breathing, and in a few seconds she had completely lost a pulse.

"Mom...mom," Rosalina knew the inevitable had come, but it hurt. She buried her face in her mothers chest and cried once more.

Mario looked very somber, a tear or two had slipped down his cheeks, and he took off his hat in respect. Luigi followed his brothers example, but he was next to Daisy and was making sure she got everything she needed.

Peach was full out crying and ran up to hug Rosalina, but deciding it wasn't a good tome she turned to hug Jennette, "Oh this is so awful."

Jennette hugged Peach back, "I know, but we need to be strong." The two broke their embrace and saw Rosalina's head poke up.

Peach softly whispered, "Are you ready?"

Rosalina silently nodded and the brothers lifted Claire's body from the ground and took it with them in their spaceship, they had to deliver it to the Funeral Arrangement.

The three girls, helping Daisy boarded the Comet Observatory.

"Mama!" About a million lumas rushed Rosalina all at once, and seemed to make her a little happier. She smiled, "Thanks."

Around nightfall the funeral was spectacular, and afterward Rosalina felt much better. Looking up at the sky she saw the brightest shining star and whispered, "I love you mom."

After the funeral the group had decided to wish Rosalina off.

"Bye! Remember we're here anytime!" The Mario brothers waved goodbye.

"Good luck Rosalina, come back soon, please?" Peach and Daisy winked at her and they all joined into a group hug.

Jennette waved at Rosalina, "Come visit me anytime, Ok? Best Wishes!"

Rosalina got into her ship and she looked at the sky once more, turning to reply to her friends she said, "Don't worry, my mom is watching me, and she'll keep me safe."
