Author's Note: Well, here's a new one for ya. This is sort of a parody of the hit show 24, but this will not follow the plot line of the show at all. There might be a few things here and there, but this totally revolves around all Mario Brother Characters in a high octane thrill ride that will leave you guessing every minute. Also, the setting is more modern, so Mushroom Kingdom is more like New York or Chicago. Also, I'm aware that this is supost to take place in some kind of real time, the only thing with this story there is no flash backs and no jumping too far ahead. I'll try to make this as acurate as I can. Here we go...
For anyone who's too literal out there, here's how the time system works
(hour : minute : second)
Disclaimer: I do not own nor did I create Mario or any Mario character mentioned in this fan fiction, NINTENDO did, has, and always will. This is just a harmless fanfic made out of fan appreciation for the franchise
SUPER MARIO 24
This chapter takes place between 12:00 AM and 1:00 AM on the day
the King of the Mushroom Kingdom will hand over his power to Princess Peach...
Mushroom Kingdom - Mario's Pipe House 12:00:00 AM
Mario's asleep in his house when suddenly, his cell phone rings. He starts to wake up and throws his alarm against the wall. Of course, he realizes it's his cell phone and pick's it up.
Mario: Mama meya... (Answers Phone) Hello?
Toad: Mario. Sorry to wake you up this late, but we have a situation at the Mushroom Kingdom Castle.
Mario: What seems to be the problem?
Toad: Well, as you know the king is going to retire today and hand his kingdom over to Princess Peach.
Mario: Right. I'll be there.
Toad: Well, we have reason to believe Bowser might get involved.
Mario: What makes you say that?
Toad: A Lakitu Cloud is missing from our M.K.D.U (Mushroom Kingdom Defense Unit) hanger. If Bowser has one of those, it could mean trouble.
Mario: Tell you what, I'll head down there right now. Kay.
Toad: Okay.
Mario: Be there in 10 minutes
Slipping on his overalls and putting on his red cap, he heads out the door. When getting into his pick up, the cell phone rings again.
Daisy: Hi Mario.
Mario: Daisy? How's it going?
Daisy: Is Luigi with you?
Mario: No, he left two hours ago to meet up with you.
Daisy: Well, I have been waiting at the bar for about 2 hours and he still hasn't shown up.
Mario: Maybe he got lost along the way. I'd like to help, but I have some place I need to be. Talk to you later.
Daisy: Okay...
Mario drives off and get on to Toad's Turn Pike towards the Mushroom Kingdom Castle

Mushroom Kingdom Castle 12:08:15 AM
The King is sitting on his throne looking at the picture of Peach when she was a kid. Suddenly, the King's advisor walks in.
Advisor: King, what are you doing up this late. You should get to bed, you have a big day tomorrow.
King: I couldn't sleep. I guess I'm just worried. I'm too old to be King and I just worry that my daughter is not up to the challange.
Advisor: She's said herself that she is ready.
King: Where did the time go? She used to be my little girl, and now she's all grown up...
The king stares at the picture a little bit longer and then sets it down on his table.
King: Just hope things go well. Good night Advisor, I'm going back to bed
Advisor: Very good sir
12:16:03 AM
The king goes back to his bedroom. As he rests his head, a shadow goes past the window. On the outside ledge, seven koopa troopa in black shells and wearing masks are carefully walking towards Princess Peach's bedroom window. The lead one put's his hand to his ear as he listen to the main man's instructions
Voice: The Lakitu Cloud is coming this way, you have one minute to get the princess ready for transport.
KT: Right...
The lead koopa troopa signals to the others as they line up in front of the window. Without warning, they bust through the window as princess wakes up screaming and covering herself with her blankets. Three Troopas rush to the door just as the guards burst in. Though, the Troopas took them down with a hail of fire balls. The other four run over and point their fire flowers at them
KT: Freeze princess! You're coming with us!
Peach: Someone help me!
KT: Shut up!
The Troopa backhands Peach with the Fire Flower and she is KOed. He then throws her over his shoulder and carry her to the window. The sound of the Lakitu Cloud is in range. Though, as one Koopa Troopa turns around, he drops a disk

Off ramp of Toad's Turnpike -12:17:42 AM
As Mario is driving off the off ramp and heading towards the castle.
Mario: Mama meya! What's going on!
As he looks beyond his windshield, he sees the Lakitu Cloud. Quickly stopping at the bridge, he hops out the door with a fire flower and starts firing into the sky. Not a single hit makes it as the could starts flying off.
Mario: Mama meya...
He quickly runs inside to see what happened. Without thinking, he immediately goes to Peach's bedroom where the king is standing.
Mario: What happened...
King: The princess has been kidnapped.
Mario: Who did it?
One of the Guards struggles to talk
Guard: Koopa... Troopas...
Mario: Bowser
Mario starts marching off towards the entrance
King: Mario. Where are you going?
Mario: Where else, Bowser's Castle
King: Be careful
He hops into his car and starts driving west towards the outskirts of the Mushroom Kingdom
***
Lakitu Cloud -12:24:31 AM
Two shadowed figure are looking forward as they head west.
Figure1: (Grumbling Voice) Everything went according to plan, eh?
Figure2: (Italian/German Accent) It sure did. We'll be controlling the Mushroom Kingdom in no time.
They come out of the shadow's, and there stand Bowser and Wario
Wario: You know though, Mario will be coming after us.
Bowser: I don't think so. For you see, if I kidnap the princess of course Mario is going to risk life and limb to rescue her. But this time, I also captured someone else.
Bowser pulls a sheet and there's Luigi, unconscious and hog tied
Wario: Oh Bowser, you are sick
Bowser: I know. Ha ha ha ha ha.
Bowser walks to the pilot.
Bowser: Turn right here.
Pilot: Right sir!
Wario: Why are we going this way?
Bowser: My castle would be a dumb place to retreat to, so I arranged a hide out in the forest maze. I'm sure Mario will go my castle first, where I have left him a surprise.
Wario: Wow, you just keep getting more sadistic...
The cloud turns right and headed for the forest maze.
***
Bowser's Castle - 12:37:09 PM
As the truck drives up, Mario steps out and looks up at the castle
Mario: This brings back memories
Suddenly, a police car drives up and four guards of the Mushroom Kingdom walk out
Mario: What are you guys doing here?
Guard: With the way Bowser attacked the castle, we have reason to believe Mario is not fooling around. You may need some help.
Mario: Thanks
The five walk up to the door and slowly open it revealing the gigantic entrance hallway. As they walked, the door shut behind them and Bowser's laughter echoed through the hallway.
Bowser: Welcome Mario, glad you could make it.
Mario: Where's the princess!
Bowser: First, let me say that this is a recording. I've taken the princess someplace where you will never find her. And never will...
Guard: What does he mean by that?
Bowser: Good bye forever...
Suddenly, the celling opens up and hundreds of BaBombs fall to the ground and are ready to explode.
Mario: RUN!
The team runs from the main hall into another room just as the Babombs go off. But, the walls open up revealing more. They continued running from room to room staying one step ahead of total destruction. The chase had soon sent them to the middle of the castle in a dark room.
Guard1: I think we're safe here...
Guard2: Could someone please turn on a light
Mario: Just a second
Mario lights up a fire flower and puts it forward to reveal a gigantic babomb standing in the middle of the room. It starts up and the fuse goes quickly.
Guard: We're all doomed...
Mario: Wait!
***
Forest Maze - 12:42:37 AM
The Lakitu Cloud lands at a small castle in the middle of the forest maze. In the distance, there's a huge explosion lighting up the dark sky followed by smoke and fire.
Wario: Mama meya! What the hell was that!
Bowser: The surprise I left for Mario
Wario: Arnt you the least bit sad for destroying your castle
Bowser: No way! At 10 o'clock today, we'll be living in the Mushroom Kingdom Castle
Wario: Oh ya!
Bowser and Wario start carrying Peach and Luigi into the small castle.
***
Mushroom Kingdom Castle - 12:44:13 AM
The King and Toad are standing on a balcony looking at the fire down at Bowser's Castle
King: What the hell was that?
Toad: That was the location of Bowser's Castle
King: (Gasp) Mario...
Toad: Oh man
King: If Mario is gone, we need every force we can to get Peach back. Call everyone you can. Mallow, the Yoshis, anyone!
Toad: Got you sir
King: Also, send some emergency Lakitu clouds to Bowser's location. If Mario is alive I want him found
Toad: Yes sir
***
Yoshi Island - 12:49:14 AM
(7:49:14 AM in the time zone yoshi island is in)
On a table in one of the huts, there's a coconut phone. It rings and a Red Yoshi picks it up
Red Yoshi: Yoshi! *Hello*
Toad: High, I need to talk to Green Yoshi.
Yoshi: Yoshi Yoshi *Just a second*
Red runs out the door and green walks in
Yoshi: Hello
Toad: Hi Yoshi, it's me toad
Yoshi: You sound like your worried about something
Toad: Something big is going down here in Mushroom Kingdom. The princess has been kidnapped and Mario might me dead
Yoshi: WHAAAAAA?!
Toad: We'll need your assistance
Yoshi: I'll be right there!
Toad: Bring your friends too!
Yoshi: Right! We'll be there in a hour or so!
Yoshi runs outside
Yoshi: YOSHI YOSHI YOSHI!!! *The Mushroom Kingdom is in trouble, we have to help*
Blue Yoshi: Yoshi yoshi! *We'll be glad to help*
Yoshi: Yoshi. Yoshi yoshi. *Let's Go. We can use my boat*
***
Bowser's Castle - 12:57:33 AM
There's nothing but rubble after the castle was destroyed in that explosion. Suddenly, some of the rubble starts collapsing and there stands Mario and the four guards safe and sound in some sort of electric shield. One of the guards uncovers himself
Guard1: Are we dead?
Guard2: What happened?
They look up to Mario who is holding a used Invincible Star
Mario: What, it's always good to keep one handy just in case
The guards smile at his string of good luck. The emergency Lakitu clouds come it one of the pilots runs out to Mario
Pilot: Are you okay!
Mario: Yes!
Pilot: Good! Let's get back to the Mushroom Kingdom!
Mario: Great idea!
Everyone gets into the chopper and flies east towards the Mushroom Kingdom
1:00:00 AM - TO BE CONTINUED....
Par two should be ready in a few days or so, until then...
