Author's note
Hey folks, JusSonic here ready to do a prequel of shorts which takes place before "Sonic's Cars II". Time to have some fun!
------------
As our short begins, we see a familiar shack with a logo on it.
"Sonic's Cars Toons: Mario's Tall Tales"
A horn honked from out of nowhere as the door fell. Mario came out, smirking as he spoke, "If I-a lying, I-a crying!"
Mario the Greatrio
It was a fine day outside of Daisy's café. Sonic, Emerl, Luigi and Yoshi were drinking having fun. But then, they yelped as they saw Mario in his tow truck flying from the ramp, screaming. He hit some oil cans nearby, safe and sound.
"Mario! Are you all right?" Sonic exclaims as he and Emerl rushes over to see if he's all right.
"What were you thinking?" Emerl ask Mario as the plumber got out of his vehicle, knocking some cans down while doing so. "That was nuts!"
"Awww, that-a was nothing!" Mario chuckles as he fixes his hat. "I-a used to be a daredevil!"
"Wait, you?" Sonic ask Mario skeptically.
"That's-a right! Folks want to-a come all over to-a see my stunts."
"Stunts?" Emerl ask, giving a concerned look to Mario. "Mario, no offense, but I don't think I recall hearing about your events. And I doubt you were good enough for them."
"You-a were too busy to notice." Mario said, not offended by his friends' skeptic looks. "And I-a don't need-a be good for anything! Why, I-a remember like it was yesterday!"
---------------
In some sort of stadium in one of Mario's flashbacks, we see a stadium. A blimp flew high in the sky as folks sat in their seats, chanting eagerly, "Mario! Mario!"
"Ladies and gentlemen...here he is!" A voice exclaims excitedly. "Mario the Greatrio!"
A billboard with Mario's name mentioned is seen as Mario jumps through it in daredevil clothes, riding a motorcycle. Reporters didn't waste time in snapping photos of the daredevil as he stopped right near the ramp, giving a proud look.
Mario winks to Tessa and Vanessa James, wearing daredevil clothes of their own as well as fake mustaches, cheering, "Yahoo!!!"
"All right, get your Mario merchandise! Two mustaches for a set!" A vendor exclaims, selling off Mario merchandise to the excited fans.
Mario comment, "It would be SO easy to just use a Super Leaf or Cape Feather and then build up my speed enough to fly far enough to guarantee this stunt is successful. Unfortunately, it would ALSO be an unfair advantage. So let's just get this done on sheer skill and nerve."
Mario glance at a long row of old cars lined up from one ramp to the other. Men are inside them, shivering a bit. The daredevil narrows his eyes as he backs away. The crowd watch anxiously, one of the girls' jaws dropped, making her mustache fall off. Will he make it?
"Wow..." Tessa comments as she put her mustache back on.
Mario backs away towards the edge as a voice calls out, "Yeah! You're the man, man!"
Mario yelps as his bike bumps into the edge of the bumpers. Two of the officials motions him to "go ahead". The plumber nods as he made his tires screech...then zooms off towards the ramp.
"There he goes!" The announcer booms as Mario passed by folks behind cones, sending the said cones to the ground. As the audience watches on, Mario begins to speed up the ramp in slow motion, much to the anticipation of the crowd and the girls. Mario...
...then plopped down onto a car, making a man hit his head on the tires. Mario didn't waste time in zooming a bit, hopping as he apologizes, "Sorry. Excuse me. Coming-a through! Good-a to see you. My bag. Oh, hey Toad! How's the kids? Watch your head!"
Mario soon made it to the other ramp. The announcer booms out, "Yeah, he did it!"
The crowd cheers wildly, the girls squealed in delight while the officials high-five one another. Although it seems rather lame, Mario has done it!
"Yeah! That guy is greatrio!" A reporter exclaims eagerly to another one.
"You're the man, Mario!" A fan calls out excitedly to Mario.
---------------
As the logo shows up, we see Mario enters a canon as his present self narrates these scenes, "Mama mia. I-a did all-a kinds of stunts."
The cannon was aimed carefully at the target as one of the boys set fire to a ring that the daredevil must land into. Mario smirks as he exclaims, "Fire!!!"
Mario was fired right to the ring...except the rope that is on the daredevil made him twirl, yelps a bit before falling down. The crowd cringes as a flame burst appears where he was followed by a flame cloud. Luckily, Mario survived although he is blacken and coughing.
One of the officials quickly rushes over to put the flames out on the extinguisher as he groans out, "Mama mia! Hokey-smokes!"
-----------
Mario was trying out another stunt, whopping as he sat in a plane before flown, "YEE-HAW!" The plumber chuckles as the pilot twirled his plane around. Mario would've fell out, but the rope held him as the laughing daredevil was able to do that stunt with no problem!
"I-a almost broke every part in my-a body!"
Sonic's voice begins to spoke awkwardly, "Uh..."
Mario's voice adds, "Seriously, I-a did. Thank goodness for-a 1-Ups!"
The officers held a tub of water as they carefully put it on the X mark for Mario's next stunt. The spotlights shined on Mario who is wearing a swimsuit and snorkel. What crazy stunt is he gonna do now?
Mario prepares himself as he looks down then dives off the board. The daredevil yelps as he crashes into the water...causing it to break and send water spilling out all over. Mario, surviving once more, spits/coughs out water as the folks cheers for the daredevil wildly.
----------
And now for Mario's biggest stunt which involves him wearing a rocket, glancing at a long ramp near a canyon. This will be the biggest stunt ever attempted by man!
"But my-a biggest stunt that Mario the Greatrio has ever-a done was jumping the Grand Canyon!"
Mario glances at the big chasm and the ramp on the other side. If one messes this up...
"What?!" Sonic's voice interrupted the story in disbelief.
----------------
"Jumping the Grand Canyon?! That's crazy!" Sonic protests to Mario in disbelief. There's no way that the plumber could survive that!
"Well, yes, don't-a you remember?" Mario ask his best friend with a nod. "You-a was there too!"
"Huh, what?" Emerl ask in confusion upon hearing that. "When did that take place?"
"Allow-a me to tell you!"
--------------
Sure enough, we see Sonic in his car with rockets attached to it, the hedgehog is wearing a daredevil costume and fake mustache of his own. Mario smirks to his best friend as he ask, "You-a ready, buddy?"
"Ready?" Sonic ask confused. How did he end up in this story?! What's more shocking is that the rockets that he's wearing begin to be lit.
"Okie dokie! Get her done!"
Sonic suddenly yelps as the rockets pushed him down the ramp, zooming through while screaming like mad. The fake mustache fell off of him as everyone else watches him goes zooming into the air, flying in slow motion. Will he make it?
----------
"So what happened?" Sonic ask Mario in the present in disbelief.
"Sadly, you-a didn't make it." Mario said to Sonic in disappointment.
"Awwww." Some of the folks listening said in disappointment.
"Err, Mario? If Sonic didn't make it, how could he be here now?" Emerl ask awkwardly as he points out one flaw in Mario's story: Sonic is here and alive!
"Oh, I-a didn't say he died. He-a crashed and was-a in the hospital for two weeks." Mario said, pointing out how Sonic is still alive: he crashed and have to be in the hospital for 2 weeks!
"Oh, well, that makes sense."
"Give me a break!" Sonic exclaims with a frown. No way can Mario's daredevil story be real!
"Well, see ya you two later!" Mario exclaims as he hops back into his tow truck. "Hey-a guys! Let's-a go!"
Mario quickly drove backward, heading back to the way he went. The two racers look surprised as two familiar officials arrive, picking up the cameras for a moment. One of them looks at Sonic for a moment then heads off with his colleague.
"Why do I have a feeling that these stories may be true?" Emerl ask as Sonic looks more confused by that.
----------
We now see Mario, the officials, and the girls in daredevil posing with the daredevil grinning eagerly. Of course, they hear Sonic screaming, causing the plumber to back off as the hedgehog zooms by the group, crashing off off-scream, as seen by a tire rolling off. As an ambulance heads to help Sonic, Mario shrugs as he goes back to posing.
The End
Author's note
Wow, how crazy! Next chapter, Mario the Rescue Squad hero! Read, review and suggest!
Rescue Squad Mario
As our short begins, we see a familiar shack with a logo on it.
"Sonic's Cars Toons: Mario's Tall Tales"
We hear an alarm sound from out of nowhere as the door fell. Mario came out, looking serious as he spoke, "If I-a lying, I-a crying!" The plumber zooms off as if going to an emergency.
Rescue Squad Mario
It was an afternoon in Ancient Springs. Jessica was watering her plants as three familiar friends walk passed her. Sonic calls out, "Hey there, Jessica."
"Wow, Jessica is well dedicated to her job." Emerl comments as the trio walks by her place.
"Yep." Mario said with a sigh. "Mama mia. I-a used to be a fire fighter."
"Wait, what?" Sonic ask Mario, puzzled by what his best friend just said.
"That's-a right!"
"Hang on. If you were a fire fighter, how come your truck doesn't have a hose?" Emerl ask doubtfully, pointing out that Mario's truck doesn't even have a hose.
"Well, allow me to-a tell you the story so you-a will find out!" Mario insists as he goes into another one of his tall tales.
------------
The story begins as a building is on afire. Folks panicked like mad as someone screams out, "Fire, there's fire! Someone called Rescue Squad Mario!!!"
And sure enough, a firetruck with the logo is shown with details on the fire truck. In an office, Mario is in fire fighter clothes, listening to the radio while sitting in his chair. The fire fighter chuckles as he takes a look at his truck nearby.
Suddenly the alarms went off, almost making him fell out of his chair. Mario got back up and rushes to his truck. A voice calls out, "All units! All units! Respond! There's a fire in progress at the 1-2-0-niner Toad Michael Way!"
"Mama mia! That's-a the old Gasoline and Match Factory!" Mario exclaims in shock. If that place goes up, then the whole city goes.
"You got it! Get going, Mario!"
As Mario hops into his truck, his fire alarm went off as the fire fighter drove it backward. It took a few minutes as Mario and his crew, a Bob-Omb named Bombette, a Paratroopa named Parakarry, and a Koopa Troopa named Kooper, zooms down the street to where the fire is. They must get there in a hurry!
Parakarry spots Mario from a chopper arriving with more helicopters, police cars, ambulance trucks and fire fighters following him. He spoke through his radio, "Chopper on en route!"
"Trooper responding. Where's Mario?" Kooper ask, wondering where Mario's at.
"Right-a behind you!" Mario calls out. His truck zoomed up the tall hill, knocking down a few cones and a spare extinguisher to boot. The fire fighter zoomed and follow the emergency, giving a serious look as he said, "Mario 1, en route!"
The cops motions the crowd away from the burning building, with one of them ordering, "Okay, back up, folks."
"Put it in reverse, pal!" Another officer instructs a man in his car. "Make room for Mario and crew!"
The truck came to a stop as Mario got out and removes the host. A voice on the radio spoke, "Be advised! This is an explosive situation! Rescue Squad Mario, everyone is depending on you!"
As water was splashed around, Mario quickly calls out, "10-4, we're on it!" The plumber smirks as he winks to two familiar girls dressed in firefighter outfits with hats on themselves.
"Bow wow!" Tessa and Vanessa James squeals at the sight of Mario.
Mario comment, "What I wouldn't give for an Ice Flower about now." The fire fighters splashes a lot of water around like mad. This could be tricky!
----------------
"Mario, give me a break!" Sonic scowls at Mario's story back in reality. "No way you could be a firefighter with a fire truck!"
"Well, some-a folks volunteered to do-a all these kind of dangerous stuff all-a the time." Mario said to the skeptic hedgehog of this.
"So are you seriously a fire fighter?" Emerl ask Mario skeptically.
"Yep! Sonic, you-a remember, for Nintendo's sake. You-a was there, too!"
"What?!" Sonic yells out in shock and confusion. He is in this tall tale too?!
----------------
Sure enough, in the fantasy, Sonic screams out in a panic while getting trapped in the burning building, "Help! Hey, I need some help here!"
"Remain calm!" Mario exclaims as he didn't waste time in shooting out water...which ended up splashing right onto Sonic like mad.
As Sonic coughs out, a ladder extended up so that a firefighter is able to get to the hedgehog and grabs him, saying, "We gotcha!"
"Look out!' The same man on the ground yelps in horror. "It's gonna blow!!!"
The two pulled away and in the nick of time too as the building blew up. That was a close one! Sonic groans as he is put onto an emergency bed to be taken to the local hospital.
"Get-a him to the hospital! Stat!" Mario calls out quickly.
"On my way!" An ambulance worker said as she got into the ambulance and drove off. Mario meanwhile chose this time to smirk to the locals. The girls laughs as the crowd takes photos of the hero.
"All right, yeah!" A reporter laughs while taking pictures of Mario.
------------
Sonic woke up in the hospital a while later as he yelped while being forced through a lot of doors in a wheelchair. The hedgehog yelps each time he hits a door. The madness came to an end as Sonic was send dropping onto the floor of an emergency room.
"Paging Dr. Mario. Dr. Mario to the ER." A voice is heard over the speaker while some Chanseys helped Sonic to the operating table. To Sonic's surprise and confusion, the door opens up and there's Mario, in a doctor outfit, coming into the ER.
"Ha ha! What's going on, ladies?" Mario calls out to the girls and Vicky Vale, in nurse outfits, giggling a bit. The doctor got to work as he put his mask on. "Okie dokie. Let'-s have a good look see!"
"Mario, wait. You're a doctor too?" Sonic ask his best friend confused. Mario is a doctor as well.
"Yep, buddy! I-a got my MD, Ph.D., SUV, STP, BLT, Kenny G, and my GTO nurse." Mario explains as he points to his diploma for "MD, another for "Ph.D", an SUV which is parked outside, a roll of toilet parker marked "M" on it, a BLT on a plate, a figure named Kenny G, and a nurse in gold nurse clothes named Nurse Joy coming into the room.
"Ready, doctor." Nurse Joy said to Mario with a smile.
"Wait, how..." Sonic begins to say in confusion. How did Mario became a doctor anyway?!
Mario comment, "Good thing I DO have some doctoring experience." As the ER doors are closed, the doctor is heard getting to work. "Clear!"
Sonic is heard screaming in pain as those doctors got to work on him. That hedgehog is going to be worked on tonight!
--------
"So what happened?" Sonic ask Mario skeptically. So how did this new story ended anyway?
"I-a saved your life." Mario announced proudly to Sonic, much to his disbelief.
"Wow; that sounds amazing." Emerl said to Mario, much to Sonic's annoyance that the robot actually believed in this story.
"What? Emerl, don't get suckered into it!" Sonic exclaims to the robot in irritation. “He didn't save my life."
"Did so!" Mario insists to the skeptic Sonic of his claim.
"Did not."
"Did so."
"No way, Mario..." Sonic said, getting annoyed by this.
"Yeah, I-a did. Yep." Mario said with a nod of insistence. The plumber is obvious sticking to his story.
"Will you cut that out, Mario?!"
"Did so!"
"Not, did not!" Sonic snaps in irritation to the plumber. No way that he saved his life. Otherwise, the hedgehog would've recalled that!
"Did so times infinity!" Mario insists, sticking his tongue out much to Sonic's irritation.
"Did not times infinity plus 1! And I would like to see you prove it!'
Just them, the trio spots Nurse Joy driving by them in her GTO, much to the shock of Luigi and Yoshi. The woman calls out to Mario, "Hey, Doctor Mario."
Everyone watches Nurse Joy leave as Sonic's jaw dropped in shock. Wait, that story is true too?!
"You were saying?" Emerl ask the shocked Sonic with a smirk.
"Did so." Marip said to Sonic with a smirk of his own as if proving his point. With that, the plumber went off after the nurse for a chat.
"What in the world?" Sonic ask stunned while shaking his head in disbelief.
--------
We see Mario and his allies posing while an explosion occurred behind the group. The firefighter/doctor smirks to the camera as he did a wink.
The End
Author's note
Another story proven? Maybe. In the next story, Mario is a monster wrestler, fighting off various opponents. Read, review and suggest.
Bombette, Parakarry and Kooper are allies of Mario in "Paper Mario".
This story reference one of the newer power-ups in the later Super Mario games and the Doctor Mario game.
Monster Wrestling Mario
As our short begins, we see a familiar shack with a logo on it.
"Sonic's Cars: Mario's Tall Tales"
As a familiar horn is heard, the door fell down. Mario smirks as she came out, exclaiming, "Don't-a lie, don't-a cry! Wrestle!"
Monster Wrestling Mario
As usual, the gang are hanging at the café. Emerl was watching My Little Heroines: Friendship is Magic Season 2...the episode was 'Valentine's Day'...
"So, Annie...you excited for Valentine's Day at school?" Ryan ask his honorary nephew curiously.
"Well....kind of, Uncle Ryan." Annie said meekly. Ryan notices him shuffling his feet. Interesting.
"Uh...kind of? What do you mean by 'kind of', Annie?"
"I've never been anyone's Valentine before...what if I screw up?"
"Oh...that makes a lot of sense." Ryan said, now understanding why Annie is upset. "You see, it happens a lot to many kids your age. Have you got someone on your mind as your Valentine? Hmm?"
Annie notices a smirk on Ryan's face, making him uncomfortable. He said, "Uncle Ryan...please don't give me that look."
"What look?"
"You know...that crazy grinning look that you get when you're being mischievous."
"Oh, that one. Sorry, Annie...I'm just curious." Ryan said to Annie with a lightful chuckle. He then ask, "Who is she? Is she...someone that I know?"
Annie hesitates as he begins to answer, "It's..."
"Wait, wait. Don't tell me. It's Padme, right?"
"Well, I--."
"You lucky boy." Ryan laughs as he pats Annie on the back, making sure not to do so too hard. "I'm happy for you...I mean...I barely see you without a smile on your face whenever you see Padme."
"Is that love, Uncle Ryan? Is that how you feel whenever you're around someone you really care for and love?" Annie ask Ryan hopefully and anxiously.
"Annie...Annie my boy, that's not the only thing that makes love what it is; love is about putting someone else's needs above your own. Love is about showing someone how much you care about them and them showing you how much they care about you back."
"Really?"
"Yeah...that's what love really means. But my question is...does Padme love you back?" Ryan ask Annie curiously. "I know that you two...ahem...'accidentally' kissed under the mistletoe at Christmas, but was it a real kiss, or just showing respect for the tradition?"
"I'll probably ask her that later." Annie said, blushing a bit.
"Good luck, Annie...see you later when you come back...and please tell me her answer."
The gang then spots a big guy in a monster truck passing by. Sonic exclaims eagerly, "Wow! Way past! Check out the size of that monster as well as the guy driving it."
"Awww, that's-a nothing." Mario said with a light chuckle.
"I supposed you got another story about that?" Emerl ask Mario skeptically.
"Yep! I-a used to wrestle-a guys bigger than that."
"What?" Sonic ask Mario in disbelief. His best friend was a wrestler now?
"Yep! I was a Monster Wrestler!"" Mario exclaims as he goes into another one of his tall tales.
--------------
Mario's next tall tale begins at a building where a wrestling show is beginning, as shown on a sign marked "Tuesday Nite Wrestling Challenge Sign Up." The crowd cheers on wildly as they wait for the wrestlers to appear.
"And now, ladies and gentlemen...introducing the Scary-o Scary-o the Terror!" An announcer booms out.
A light flickers as Mario is shown with a badly made wrestling outfit. And as per every wannabe, the crowd booed at him.
"Excuse a-me, its Mario Mario the Plumber!" Mario protest to the announcer for making that mistake.
"Does it matter?" The voice ask arrogantly. Mario hears a badly version of "Pop Goes the Weasel" from an ice cream truck. "Who wants some ice cream?!" The spotlight turns right to the door as it was slammed opened, showing a monster truck ice cream truck with someone inside. "Here he is, Zeebad the I-Streamer!!!"
The crowd, including a man named Brent McHale, cheers wildly as Zeebad, a spring like blue figure, zoomed up then hopped out of the truck.
"I am ready to make you scream, fatso!" Zeebad exclaims to Mario quickly, causing him to yelp.
Mario comment, "Too bad I can't use my power-ups in a sanctioned wrestling match without it being considered cheating."
Once the bell rings, the wrestler roars but Mario yelps and darts away in the nick of time, much to his opponent's confusion. As he scratches his head, he ask while looking around the area angrily, "Huh? Now where..."
"Excuse, me, mister?" A boy voice ask funnily. Zeebad turns and saw Mario...except the plumber disguises himself as a kid with a beanie hat on, preventing his opponent from recognizing him. "All right if-a I have one double dipstick sundae please?"
"What? Oh, right. Coming right up! That must be a popular flavor." Zeebad said with a nod, thinking that this is a customer. The wrestler turns around to get some ice cream but Mario then grabs him by the spring bottom, sending him tossing away. "Huh? WHOA!"
"HA HA!"
Zeebad hits the mat hard, unable to get back up. The referee Mills Lane rushes in and slaps the ground, quickly calling out, "1, 2, 3," Soon the bell rings, causing Mills to point to Mario. "And the winner is...Scary-o Scary-o the Terror!"
Mario, back in his normal outfit, didn't waste time in grabbing an extinguisher and splashing Zeebad with it. After tossing the empty item away, the defeated humiliated wrestler now looks like an ice cream sundae.
"Now that's a sundae, sundae, sundae," The voice exclaims eagerly at this victory.
---------------------------
Mario became a celebrity big time. The next week shows a poster of him as Scary-o Scary-o the Terror fighting a military wrestler named Prison Warden, some sort of stern looking fish prison warden.
In the ring, the Prison Warden glares as he snaps to Mario, "Drop and give me 20!"
Mario is in better wrestling clothes this time. The plumber, smirks, back himself to the ropes, exclaiming, "How-a about I-a give you three?!"
Mario was about to bounce from the wrings and toppled onto the Prison Warden, trapping him. Mills calls out, "1, 2, 3!" The bell rings, allowing the referee to announce. "The winner!"
---------
Soon another wrestler appears on the view screen: Denzel Crocker AKA Dr. Crocktopus. The villain is using his metal arm to trap Mario who is struggling to get free.
"Wow! Dr. Crocktopus has Scary-o Scary-o the Terror in his signature dreaded arms hold!" The voice exclaims in concern.
While Marioy and his opponent continue fighting, a familiar song, "Eye of the Tiger", plays in the background. Then, Homestar Runnert gets up to the mike as he starts singing along with the song.
Homestar: Rising up
Back on the street
Did my time
Took my chances
Then Strong Bad came up on the stage and pushed Homestar out of the way, scowling, "Oh, get outta here, Dumbstar."
"Yeah, alright," Homestar snaps in annoyance while being pushed off the stage.
"Looks like I got you, fatso! All my arms got you!" Dr. Crocktopus exclaims madly as if he's winning.
However, Mario grab one of his opponent's nipples, then twist it, making the opponent scream in pain. The wrestler then twirled and tumbled, breaking Dr. Crocktopus's arms right off before the villain is send tumbling to the ground.
"1, 2, 3!" Mills exclaims before pointing to Mario. "The winner!"
"Ha ha! Looks-a like I got your-a arms now!" Mario laughs as he points to the defeated Crocktopus with all of his enemy's arms.
The fans, especially Brent who is wearing Scary-o Scary-o the Terror franchise on himself, shouts out to Mario now, "Yeah, you-a sure-a do!"
---------------------
"Ooh, it's Orin Scrivello, D.D.S!" The announcer exclaims as we see a poster marked "Scary-o Scary-o the Terror vs. Orin Scrivello, D.D.S."
In the ring, a dentist by the name of Orin Scrivello, D.D.S. prepares himself while exclaiming, "When I'm done, your next stop will be a dentist's chair!"
However Orin couldn't make do on his threat at Mario pulled him towards the bungee. He exclaims, "Well, don't-a worry...I-a will bring you some flowers!"
It didn't take long for Orin to be send flying right out of the stadium. The voice booms out, "Wow! That's gotta hurt!" The dentist crashes through a window of the hospital next door, landing in pain right in the ER. "And just wait until he gets the bill!"
Mills quickly came up as he makes the count, "1, 2, 3!"
"You-a are out!" Mario is heard laughing in triumph.
---------
Mario is in another fight, facing off against a Scottish man named MacFroogle who is about to use cement in hopes to take his opponent down.
"MacFroogle is gonna lay down some cement!" The same voice exclaims eagerly.
"Time for a fresh pour, laddie!" MacFroogle exclaims sternly to Mario.
"Pour-a it on!" Mario exclaims in determination. The hero didn't waste time in tripping MacFroggle. The Scottish wrestler screams as he fell down into the cement, getting himself covered as a result.
"Ooh, wow! He got paved!" The voice exclaims in amazement at this defeat.
In the referee stand, two kid announces named Nick and Chip was watching the action. Nick exclaims, "Dang!"
"Well, that's what I called a patio-daddy-o!" Chip exclaims with a smirk as if making some sort of joke here.
Mario down below eagerly stood proud on top of the cemented MacFroogle as Mills counts, "1, 2, 3!"
"Yahoo! You rock, woo-hoo!" Brent cheers out wildly for Mario.
------------------
Soon everyone gathered at a huge stadium where the logo "Monster Wrestling" is shown. The crowd chants wildly as it's time for the fight to be crowned a new champion!
"And now, get ready as the moment we've all been waiting for her has arrived! Here he is: the mustached wonder of the world, the master of disaster..." Nick calls out as the TV inside the stadium shows Mario in his expensive looking wrestling outfit waving to everyone, "...Scary-o Scary-o the Terror!!!"
Rock music plays as flame shots out from both sides of the aisle. Mario removes his cape, twirling it around before tossing the thing. The plumber slid down the ramp in his vehicle and whoops before hopping out, hitting the ring hard.
"Go get them, Scary-o Scary-o the Terror, yahoo," Brent cheers out wildly to Mario in delight.
"Ha ha! I am-a ready!" Mario exclaims as he prepares himself for the world championship belt.
"Fighting him is word champion Dr. Gene Splicer!" Nick's voice calls out.
Sure enough, a mad scientist named Dr. Gene Splicer came out laughing madly despite the crowd booing at him. Mario couldn't help but smirks at this. This guy is his opponent?
"Piece-a pie." Mario chuckle with a smirk. He will take Splicer down in no time!
"And his monster...Melvin!" Nick exclaims suddenly.
Some walls burst down as a large, hairy monster that has the head of a bulldog, the horns of a bull, the body of an orangutan, the wings of a bat, the legs of a pig and the tail of an alligator named Melvin comes in wearing a brainwashing helmet, roaring loudly as sparkes came out of him. The crowd looks stunned and horrified.
"It's alive!" Chip exclaims as he and Nick watches this in amazement and horror.
"Mama mia!" Mario exclaims in worried as Melvin jumps into the ring.
---------
"So what did you do?!" Sonic ask worried to Mario back in the reality. Even he is buying this story.
"Awww, don't ya remember anything?" Mario ask Sonic with a disappointed frown. "We was a tag team as you-a was there too!"
"WHAT?!"
-----------
And sure enough, Sonic finds himself in wrestling clothes looking stunned as his best friend. As the bell rang, Mario quickly tags him, exclaiming, "Tag! You're-a it!"
"What?!" Sonic ask confused.
"Get them, buddy!"
Mario rushes off as Melvin slammed his fist down. Sonic screams in a panic as he dodges the monster's attacks. The hedgehog is a race car driver, not a wrestler!
"Whoa, hey!" Sonic exclaims as he kept on running to dodge the brainwashed Melvin. "Come on, back off, ugly! Back off!!!"
As Melvin kept on chasing Sonic who is running around screaming in fear, Mario is outside the ring, smiling to Tessa and Vanessa James, in plumber outfit, and posing for them.
"Yep-a, ladies! They-a are real. Wanna feel them?" Mario ask the girls. They didn't waste time in touching the wrestler's bicep as they "oooohed". They loved it!
"Mario, quick!" Sonic exclaims as he peeked out of the ring in fright. "Tag me, quickly, tag me!!!" The wrestler just tagged him without looking.
"Tag." Mario remarks. Melvin almost caught Sonic but ends up hitting the ring rope, getting caught as a result. The wrestlers, noticing, grabs the rings with a smirk. "Gotcha!" Mario grunts as he pulls at the ropes that Melvin's arm is tied up in. As Melvin growls, Mario pays him no mind as he looks at the giggling girls. "Watch-a this!"
Mario didn't waste time in pulling quickly...and the whole ring is turned upside down, along with Gene Splicer and Melvin. The two yelled as they crash underneath with everything else crashing right on top of them! Ouch!
"1, 2, 3!" Mills exclaims as he made the usual countdown. The bell rings as the referee announces, "The winners are Scary-o Scary-o the Terror and...what is your name again, hedgehog?"
"Sonic "Lightning" Hedgehog." Sonic sighs, relieved that mess is over.
"And Maniac the Death-hog!"
"Wait, what?!"
Fireworks blew up in the sky as the crowd cheers on. Mario smiles though Sonic looks more confused. What just happened?
----------
"'Maniac the Death-hog'. Ugh, come on!" Sonic groans back in reality as he roll his eyes at the story.
"Well, I don't know, it fits ya." Emerl said to Sonic with a grin, making him annoyed.
But then a familiar fan appears, looking delighted as he exclaims to Mario, "Whoa! I cannot believe it! It's Scary-o Scary-o the Terror!!! He rushes up to Mario anxiously. "Say, I'm your biggest fan, man! All right if I get your autograph?!"
"Sure-a thing." Mario chuckles as he put a hand print onto Brent's shirt, getting it dirty but making an autograph to boot.
"Wow, I will never wash this shirt again."
"Well, another story come true." Emerl said, shaking his head in amazement.
As Brent prepares to leave, an anxious Sonic follows, asking, "Hey, don't you want Maniac the Death-hog's autograph?"
"No tanks." Brent said to Sonic, refusing the hedgehog.
"Come on, seriously."
"I'm okay, really."
"I will do it real quick." Sonic said to Brent eagerly, making the fan winces a bit.
"Come on, you're making me uncomfortable." Brent said uncomfortable to Sonic. Emerl laughs a bit, his friend can't get all the luck!
--------------
We see Mario and Sonic tagging one another in wrestler outfits.
"Tag, you're it." Mario said to Sonic with a smirk.
"Tag, you're it." Sonic said, tagging the plumber right back.
"Tag.'
"Tag!"
"Tag." Mario said, beginning very silly and mischievous in this.
"Tag!" The two best friends exclaims as they tag each other.
"Tag, you're it." Sonic insists as he tags his best friend once more.
"Tag!"

UFP: Unidentified Flying Plumber
It was nighttime at a familiar shack. The light flickers off as we see a familiar logo.
"Sonic's Cars Toons: Mario's Tall Tales"
As something glows above in the sky, the door to the shack fell. A shivering Mario spoke out, "If I-a am lying, I-a crying."
UFP: Unidentified Flying Plumber
Yoshi was working at his tire stand, struggling with a hub cap of someone's car with Luigi watching.
"Yoshi, Yoshi!" Yoshi exclaims in frustration. He finally got the hub cup off, sending it flying from the store. "Yoshi!"
As it zooms past Mario's group, the plumber gasps, "Mama mia! It's-a UFO!"
"Mario, it's just a hub cap." Sonic said, rolling his eyes at the plumber's mistake.
"Right, everyone knows UFOs aren't real." Emerl said in agreement with the hedgehog.
"No, it-a was a UFO!" Mario insists as he patted his belly thoughtfully. "I-a should know. I've saw one-a once!"
"What?" Sonic ask Mario in disbelief. His best friend, saw a UFO?
"Yep! I-a even saw a purple weird-a guy called a Boov too!"
"Is this another story you're going to tell us?" Emerl ask, knowing that Mario is about to go into another one of his crazy stories.
"Yep! It-a was a crystal clear night." Mario nodded as he goes into another story of his.
--------------
It was a crystal clear night as Mario was driving his truck near the railroad tracks as a storm cloud loomed over him. Just then the train track signal turns around. For some reason, the dinging is going faster while the cloud flew over the plumber.
"Huh." Mario said puzzled as he looks around. "That's-a weird!"
Mario begins to narrate, "There I-a was...looking for trains. Can't-a remembered why. That-a cloud was acting funny. The-a dinging is faster and..."
"Get on with it!" Sonic and Emerl's voices are heard snapping impatiently.
Mario yelps as he saw someone: a purple weird alien in a blue sweater with a purple button called a Boov riding a small spacecraft. The plumber yelps, and as the train signals died down, he whimpered a bit. What does this alien want?
Mario blinks...and the alien did the same thing. The plumber confused asked, "What...what in the...?" Mario then blinks twice...and the alien did the same thing! The plumber smiles. "Well, hello-a there! Welcome-a to Earth! My name-a is Mario Mario!"
"Hi! I'm Oh!" The alien exclaims with a smile. "I am called that because my friends say that whenever I show up! Can't imagine why!"
"Oh! An alien-a named name Oh? Well, mama mia! Shall I take ya to my-a liter?"
"Your liter."
"All-a right then!" Mario exclaims with a smile. Looks like he made a new friend!
------------
"This-a is it!" Mario exclaims to Oh as he shows the alien his liter...a pile of liters that is. "My-a liters!"
"Yum!" Oh exclaims, licking his lips. That stuff looks good.
Mario is now seen drinking his cup, smiling to Oh who is drinking his own liter. The plumber narrates, "Yeah, that-a guy could put it-a away."
Oh gulped down the entire big liter then crushes the can before belching out loudly. This made Mario laughs, "Mama mia!"
"Mama mia!" Oh exclaims, causing Mario to jump in surprise. The two friends smiles and laughs together. That was fun!
"We-a did all my-a favorite things."
Mario begins teaching his favorite things to Oh. As the two enters a field where the Koopa Troopas were sleeping, the plumber uses his trunk horn, honking so loudly that all the said turtles topple over. The mischievous Oh uses his own alien horn. This made symbols to appear in the ground and making all the Koopa Troops yelp upon awakening up then tips over. The two friends laughs in glee.
During that evening, Mario begins driving backwards to teach another trick to his alien friend.
"I-a taught him how to drive backwards."
Sure enough, Oh begins driving backwards, zooming passed the plumber. He is getting the hang of this!
A bit later, Oh tinkers with his new friend's truck to teach him a new trick.
"And Oh taught-a me how to fly...well, my-a truck at least."
Once the work is done, Oh then glows as did the truck, much to Mario's who is sitting in it, amazement. His truck could fly now!
"Cool." Mario said with a smile as the two friends begin to fly off. "Wait up!"
Now during this time, Bobinsky was watching the yellow lights lazily while Mel was nearby sleeping. Suddenly, the Russian notices the lights all flickering a bit, making him shocked as he exclaims, "Whoa!"
To Bobinsky's further shock, there's Oh and Mario flying by. The plumber grins as he waves to his friend, saying, "Hey-a Bobinsky!"
As the two flying ones left, Bobinsky gave an odd look at his drink then pushed it away warily. He has had enough for one night!
-------------------------
The two friends laughs as they flew around the countryside in the sky. Mario laughs happily, "Wow! We-a going to be-a best friends forever!" At least Mario thought so until spotlights appears, surrounding Oh, much to his worry. "Wha?"
Suddenly Oh yelps as he and his aircraft got snatched by a magnet being attached to a plane. The pilot, Wolf O'Donnell, smirks as he spoke into his headset, "Got him!"
"No!"
"Return to base." A voice on Wolf's radio said to the pilot. The wolf nodded as he flew off with the prize in his clutches.
"Oh! I-a will save you!" Mario exclaims in determination. He isn't going to let some military jerks kidnapped his little friend.
Mario shifted gears, only for his vehicle to crash into a wall. The plumber yelps as he and his tow truck, tumbling down to the ground, hitting it hard. Mario groans and frowns a bit.
"Dumb reverse!" Mario scowls as he quickly shifted the gears right away then heads off. "I-a will come to get you, Oh!"
-------------
Nearby is a military based called Area 51. How do I know that? From a sign that said "Area 51, Top Secret. Look Away". The plumber lands on a hill and glances at the facility. So this place does exist!
Mario gasps as he saw a glow in a building. The plumber mumbles, "Oh no. Oh!"
Mario didn't waste time as he begins sneaking into the facility, using his truck to hover over the fence. A voice spoke on the speakers, "Maintenance to the loading dock at this time."
Mario manages to hide himself behind a cylinder, glancing at the soldiers marching away. One soldier calls out, "We will meet you there, private. Come on!"
Mario snuck by various soldiers who doesn't notice him. One of them calls out, "I need 10 men here, on the double!"
"Private Duck!" An admiral named Grimmitz calls out. "Get over here now!"
Mario arrives at the hangar where he saw the glow came from earlier. A voice calls out over the speaker, "Dr. Howard, Dr. Fine; Dr. Howard? Report to Hangar 10."
Mario hovers his truck and looks inside. Inside the lab, he saw many aliens and creatures kept in some jars. One included a small alien with an eyeball for a head, he was known as Wesley the Watchdog.
In three other jars were three monsters who the scientists thought were aliens. They were known as Ickis, Oblina, and Krumm. They didn't look pleased to be held captive there.
Then Mario saw two scientists talk to each other about some matter. One of them ask his colleague, "Hey, you know that red saber-toothed squirrel we captured last month?"
"Yeah, what about her?" The other scientist asked right back.
"Are we really going to go through with increasing her intelligence?"
"Of course, it's for a good cause. You saw what happened in the past era she came from originally through our memory scanner. We can't risk having a dangerous, loose cannon like her in our times, it's fortunate enough that the other squirrel she fought with didn't end up here."
"It still seems a bit unfair to the little critter." The first scientist said in concern for the squirrel.
"Trust me, it's what's best, not only for her, but for humanity." The other scientist insists calmly.
"Ah, probably not-a worth intervening over, but I-a know Oh is." Mario whispers as he begins looking around. "Now where is he?"
Mario gasps as he saw him: Oh shivering as a bunch of scientists are gathered around him. One of them said in precaution, "All right, try not to get too close."
"Everyone, say "Cheese"." One scientist said, making everyone turns to pose for a picture.
"Cheese!" The scientists exclaims as the camera took a picture of everyone, including Oh who blinks a bit in confusion.
"Mama mia!" Oh exclaims. This made few of the scientists gasped in surprise.
"Mama mia? He, he's trying to communicate!" A scientist exclaims in amazement. "Where are Dr. Howard, Dr. Fine or Dr. Howard?"
"It's-a me!" A voice exclaims as the scientists saw Mario coming in in a lab coat and glasses to disguise himself. "Right here, right ladies?"
Sure enough, the girls Tessa and Vanessa James, in army gear, are there, giggling a bit to the doctor.
"So doctor...what does "mama mia" mean?" The same scientist ask the disguised Mario anxiously.
"That's-a mean for "mama mia"...is...TIME WE-A GET ON OUT OF HERE!"
Before the scientists knew it, Mario grabbed the release on the lever for the table, releasing Oh who realizes who the "doctor" really is. He laughs, "Mama mia!"
Mario didn't waste time in ditching the disguise before jumping in. The scientists gasp as the hero grabs Oh and rushes off with him, yelling, "Oh, follow me!"
Mario manages to hop into his truck and flew off with Oh following, the alien looks back for a moment before sticking his tongue out at his former captors. The two friends barely got through the doors that are trying to close on them.
Alarms went off like mad as the military begins chasing the two, smashing through the facility and the gate after them. Mario and Oh needs luck to get out of this one in one piece!
-------------
"Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, hang on!" Sonic interrupts Mario back in reality. As he frowns, the hedgehog ask, "Do you expect me to believe that, seriously?"
"Well, I-a don't expect you not to...pause for dramatic effect...5, 4, 3, 2, 1...you-a were there too!" Mario exclaims as he "reminds" Sonic of his involvement as well.
------------
Sure enough, the story shows the two flying with Sonic accompanying them...the hedgehog yelps due to the turbulence. And it didn't help that Sonic hits a few trees in the way, making him yelp in pain each time.
The group came to a stop and gasps as they see a huge ship in the way...and with more creatures like Oh inside. The trio looks amazed, Oh's people, the Boov, must've come to save him!
"Wow, its way past cool!" Sonic exclaims in amazement at the shop.
"I-a know, right?" Mario remarks to Sonic with a smile.
Sure enough, the trio are beamed right in the ship before the Boovs flew off, making the get away from the pursuing military. Everyone exclaims in amazement at their escape, "Mama mia!"
The ship flew around in space, making the grand escape. Mario is heard asking, "Thanks-a for saving us, alien guys. You-a think you could-a drop us off at home?"
It was dawn as the aircraft managed to stop near the top of Mario's shack, dropping the plumber and his best friend off. They caused the whole shack to fall apart, breaking it into pieces. But at least they will live.
As the spaceship took its departure, Mario groans out, "Thank-a you."
--------
"Wow..." Emerl said in amazement in reality. A UFO story!
"Ugh, sorry, Mario, but that didn't happen." Sonic said, shaking his head in disbelief. His best friend never met an alien and he never can fly in his tow truck!
"Oh, yeah? How come I-a can do this?" Mario snaps as he shifts his gears to his car on in hopes to challenge the plumber. All it did was make bad noises, much to Sonic's alarm and disgust.
"Augh, no, Mario, stop, please!"
Mario rushes off, not wanting to see any more of Mario "making noises". Emerl stay around and, to his amazement watch as the truck begins hovering and flew off. Bobinsky was watching as Mel was waking up.
"Far out." Bobinsky said in amazement, seeing Mario flying again.
"Okay, now I know there is life out there." Emerl said in amazement, shaking his head at what he just saw.
-------------
We see Mario and Oh in space, the plumber winks to the alien as they warp speed away into space.

Weasel.
El Marioador
As our short begins, we see a familiar shack with a logo on it.
"Sonic's Cars Toons: Mario's Tall Tales"
As a familiar horn is heard honking, the shack door fell down. Mario came out with a sly seductive pose, saying. "If I'm-a lying, I'm-a crying. Roar!"
El Marioador
Out day starts out with Mario, Emerl and Mario walked down the path, checking out the blue like creatures known as Bullies.
"Wow, check out those Bullies." Sonic said impressed.
"Mama mia! They're-a just like the Bullies I-a used to fight." Mario said with an amazed smile.
"What?"
"Are you telling us another story now?" Emerl ask Mario, suspecting that the plumber got another story about his so-called past.
"Yep! That-s'a right." Mario said with a nod to his friend. "I-a was a famous Bully fighter in all of Mexico!"
-------------
We see a map of the country along with pictures of a Bully and a Hispanic person. Mario narrates like he did with his other stories, "They-a called me El Marioador!"
Sure enough, in a bull ring, a poster is marked "El Marioador: Bully Fighter". It shows Mario in matador clothes right on it. Right on it, the plumber waves to the crowd who cheers for him.
In fact, in the top balcony, Tessa and Vanessa James, as Hispania ladies, smiles as she exclaims in amazed, "Senor Marioador!" Mario smile as he winks to the girls, making them gasp and giggle as they wave fans in front of themselves.
Mario prepares himself as he turns to the Bully door as it opens, showing a Bully named Big Bully glaring, growling.
Big Bully then charges at Mario who took out his red caped. It was about to charge at Mario's cape, only to hit the anvil directly behind it, knocking the Bully back hard.
"Ole!" Mario exclaims with a laugh of triumph.
"OLE!" The crowd cheers on wildly for the plumber.
Big Bully turns, glaring at Mario who is dancing tauntingly then charges at him. The plumber manages to dodge as it passes the cape instead.
"Ole." Mario said with a smile to the charging Big Bully.
"OLE!" The crowd cheers on wildly for El Marioador.
Mario chuckles then waves the cape to Big Bully who scratches the ground a bit. The plumber mocks as he made kissy notions. Big Bully glares and charges once more. Mario manages to twirl around, causing the mad Big Bully to fall to the ground instead.
"OLE!" The crowd cheers on wildly.
"Ole!" Mario exclaims with a smile. Some roses are thrown to the matador who takes one and sniffs the flower. "Ah. Me public."
Mario bows to the public...but was interrupted by Big Bully who head butts the heroic matador, sending him crashing through a wall.
"Ai yai yai!" The girls exclaims in worry. Mario came out of the wall, groaning in annoyance. Mario comment, "Now I know how Bugs Bunny felt in that one classic cartoon."
Big Bully bowed to the crowd cheering for him, despite the fact that he's the bad guy. Suddenly, the Bully spots Mario wearing a sombrero and in his Raccoon Mario form, courtesy of a Super Leaf, dancing a bit towards him...then slapped the plumber with his tail a few times before rushing off.
Big Bully growls as he follows Mario. Upon getting closer, the matador slapped him with his tail once more. Mario turns and dances away for a bit before rushing back, slapping him once more with his tail.
As Mario darts off, Big Bully growls, blowing steam from its nostrils as he follows but stops and looks around confused. Where is that matador? Big Bully felt someone tapping him, causing him to turn back to be slapped by Mario's tail.
As Mario dances away, the Bully furiously charges at Mario. The matador twirled a bit and danced before ducking, hiding under the sombrero. Big Bully stops and glares while taking a peek...but growls as the matador reaches out and honks him by the nose.
"I-a got that-a Bully riled up than a snake-a in a big mouse field!"
"Ole!!!" The crowd cheers on wildly.
Big Bully spots Mario in another area then manages to knock him down, shoving the matador to the ground. It took a few moments but it looks like our hero was buried, with the billboard broken in pieces above him like a cemetery headstone, cape on the ground.
As the bell rang, the crowd looks horrified as a baby is heard crying. Up above, a monk named Ignacio and his friend Chancho held a lantern while the former speaks Latin in sadness, as if wishing Mario to the alter-life.
"NOOOOOO!!!!" Tessa and Vanessa cried out in sorrow. Looks like this is it, Mairo is gone!
At least, that's what they thought. But everyone looks shocked as a familiar arm came out of the pile, taking the red cape. The crowd cheers as Mario came out, tattered but alive and well.
"He's alive!" A voice exclaims as Mario spits at the ground sternly.
"El Marioador!" The girls exclaims with smiles on their faces. The matador is alive!
Mario saw his hat and jacket torn, forcing him to discarded the broken items. He growled at Big Bully, no more mister nice guy! The two goes around in a circle, giving a death glares at one another. Mario made a growling noise as he barks a bit. Don't ask why.
After a moment, Big Bully slammed a foot to the ground...and, to Mario's shock, two more doors opened up showing two Bullies coming out, glaring.
"Uh oh." Mario exclaims in worry. Looks like Big Bully has called in reinforcements.
The Bullies charged quickly. Mario holds his cape and uses it on one of them, causing that Bully to crash into a wall.
"OLE!" The crowd cheers on wildly. The matador then flung his cape to make another Bully tip over. "Ole!" Soon the hero made Big Bully hit the bullseye hard. "Ole!"
Mario spots three more Bullies charging up at him. The hero was quick to hop up, causing them to collide into one another hard. The matador lands on top of the creatures, saying proudly, "Ole!"
"OLE!"
As Mario hops to the crowd, the Bullies groans and fell unconscious. The girls tossed roses happily as the matador caught one. They cheer, "Ole! Bravo, Senor Mario!"
Mario put the rose into his mouth, smirking as he posed a bit. Looks like he's the winner...but then he felt someone tapping his shoulder, causing him to turn back around and yelp. Big Bully and his pals has woken up and got more Bullies to surround the plumber.
"Yipes!" Mario exclaims in alarm. This could not be good.
A few of the Bullies could take shotguns and start using them against Mario, though he uses a Starman to shield himself from the bullets until the Bullies run out of ammunition. After the Bullies run out of ammo, one of them go back for a few boxes of "elephant bullets with explosive heads". When the Bullies try to start shooting again, the new bullets cause the shotguns to blow up in the Bullies' faces.
Mario even load up a giant slingshot and shoot at some of the Bullies with boulders, knocking most of them out. But they kept on coming, the plumber looks at the Bullies glaring at their enemy.
"So, there-a I was, surrounded. Those Bullies are-a all around me."
-------
"Whoa!" Sonic exclaims in worried back to Mario. "What did you do?"
"How did you even survive?" Emerl ask Mario in concern.
"What...how..." Mario spoke up, looking disbelieved by this. He turns to Sonic, saying, "Sonic! Don't you-a remembered? You-a were there too!"
----------
"What?!" Sonic yells out in shock as he is now in the story.
"Wow, they-a sure like your red outfit." Mario said in amazement. Sure enough, Sonic is now wearing a matador outfit...which is red.
"Oh, not good!"
Mario screams as he runs off with the Bullies chasing him madly. The crowd cheers on, "Ole!" The hedgehog runs off some more. "Ole!"
As the crowd continues watching the chase, even Tessa and Vanessa cheers, "Ole!"
Sonic frantically use his super-speed to set up a ramp, axel grease, glue, sandpaper and dynamite trap for one of the Bullies, sending it flying and making a trap to blow the creature up before sending him crashing right into a wall. Sonic use his super-speed to rapidly replace the sandpaper, match and dynamite multiple times until every Bully ends up getting blown up and knocked out from crashing into a wall).
The crowd cheers as Sonic groans and fell to the ground, fainted away.
-------
"Mario, come on!" Sonic groans back in reality as he slapped his forehead in disbelief. "That didn't happen."
"Oh, try-a telling it to-a those Bullies." Mario whispered to Sonic in concern.
"Uh oh. They aren't happy." Emerl said in concern. Sonic turns to see the Bullies nearby, snorting at the hedgehog. He looks down and saw that he's wearing a red shirt...which the hedgehog had forgotten about until now!
"Gah! Why did I wear red today of all days?!" Sonic screams as he makes a run for it with the mad Bullies pursuing him.
As Sonic is chased off by the Bullies, Emerl shakes his head as he saw Tessa and Vanessa, still in Mexican garb, going up to Mario, giggling, "Senor Mario!"
Mario smirks as he takes his usual hat off, putting his matador hat while saying, "Senoritas!" The matador laughs as he grabbed the girls under his arms. "Ole!"
-------------
The short comes to an end as Mario did a pose, unaware of Sonic screaming as he runs off with the Bullies still chasing him.
The End
Author's note
Wow, poor Sonic. He is having a bad Bully day. In the next short, Mario goes into space to help Peter Quill AKA Star Lord. Read, review and suggest.
Big Bully and the Bullies are enemies in the Mario games, starting with Super Mario 64.
Ignacio and Chancho are from "El Nacho".
This short has references to the Bugs Bunny short "Bully for Bugs".
Moon Mario
As our short begins, we see a familiar shack with a logo on it.
"Sonic's Cars Toons: Mario's Tall Tales"
As a familiar horn is heard honking, the shack door fell down. Mario is speaking into a microphone, saying, "Houston, if I'm-a lying, I'm-a crying."
Moon Mario
Nighttime has fell over Ancient Springs. Our familiar group of friends are at the edge of town, looking at the big moon shining in the sky.
"Wow. Check out that moon." Sonic said to his friends in approval.
"I know, isn't it awesome?" Emerl ask with a smile on his robotic face.
"Yup." Mario said, nodding in agreement.
"Ever think of going up there, guys?"
"Yeah, of course, that would be stranger than the strangest stories Mario always tell that got me in them somehow." Sonic said with a light chuckle, recalling his best friend's stories.
"'strangest stories'?" Mario laughs happily at what Sonic just said. "Mama mia. that's-a nothing! I-a been to the moon myself! Now, that's-a strange!"
"What?" Sonic and Emerl ask Mario in confusion. Did their friend just claim that he's been to the moon himself?
"Yep! I-a been up there!"
"Come on. No you didn't." Sonic said to Mario with a frown of disbelief.
"Oh, it's-a pretty." Mario said with a sigh as he begins going to one of his stories. "It-a all started when I-a was towing this-a guy in his car to-a Florida."
----------------
The story begins with Florida in the daytime. Mario was towing a car like he said to the state as we hear him narrate, "And-a suddenly, Houston has a problem!"
Sure enough, in Mission Control, a crowd of scientists look at a screen and are worried. An astronaut named Peter Quill AKA Star Lord is stranded on the moon!
"Hey Houston? I have a problem." Star Lord said to Mission Control in concern and worry.
"Uh oh! It's Star Lord on Guardian XIII!" One of the scientists exclaims in worry over this.
"He's stuck on the moon!" Another scietnst said with a quick nod.
"He needs a tow and fast!" A third scientist exclaims frantically. "We need some help and fast!"
"But where on Earth are we gonna get a tow?" Another scientist ask in concern. Where can Ground Control find someone who can tow Star Lord back to Earth?
"Wait, how about that guy?" Yet another scientist gasps as he points to someone. It's Mario towing the car, arriving as he drop the car off. The figure wince, making the plumber grin sheepishly.
"But he's a tow truck driver!"
"He's the best we could do! Come on!"
------------
And so, Ground Control put Mario to training. They put him in a device in the training room, zooming him around quickly.
"And-a so, after a little bit-a of training, I became a genuine astro-nut!"
A crowd later took photos of Mario as he came out of a van in astronaut clothing. The plumber smiles to Tessa and Vanessa James watching from nearby.
"What's-a going on, ladies?" Mario ask one of the ladies eagerly.
"Good luck, Mario." Tessa said to Mario as she giggles.
"The world is counting on you!" Vanessa exclaims as she nods in agreement.
Mario hops into the truck as he goes to inside the rocket. He comment, "Well, I suppose it's a good thing I DO have some experience with space-faring heroics." The two men who found Mario in the first place looks at each other in worry. They hope for his sake that he survived!
Once Mario got into the rocket, he is greeted by the pilot named Captain Charles T. Baker who waved to him. He spoke, "Hey, Mario! Welcome aboard! My name is Baker. Charles T. Baker."
"Hi-a there, Charles!"
Inside Mission Control, the crowd hurried to make the final preparations. A scientist spoke into the microphone, "Get ready for takeoff."
Once the elevator is removed, Charles takes the control as he and Mario put their helmets on, ready for takeoff. The pilot spoke, "Oh yeah! Let's burn this candle!"
"T-minus ten, nine...main engine start." One scientist spoke as he begins the countdown. "7, 6..."
"Mama mia! I-a never been to-a moon before, Charles!" Mario exclaims excitedly to Charles.
"5..."
"Oh, you will love it. It's real nice." Charles said to Mario with a light chuckle. He can tell that the plumber will love being on the moon once he gets there.
"...4, 3, 2, 1. Booster ignition!" The scientist exclaims. Soon the rocket begins to blast off, heading right into the sky. "And we all have lift of Baker Shuttle on brother on Guardian XIII rescue mission." Mario wishes that he could share his friend's excitement: he's screaming in fear!
"We have cleared the tower."
The folks at Mission Control cheers happily. The first scientist sighs in concern, "Now, it should be up to Mario to save Star Lord now."
-----------
Soon the shuttle ended up in space as the boosters disengaged.
"Booster rockets 1 and 2, disengaged." Charles said into his mic to Mission Control that the booster rockets are now off.
"Roger, Charles. You are clear to burn." The first scientist's voice advised as the rocket zoomed away from the Earth.
Mario stares out the window and gets a full view of the planet Earth and all the stars circling around in space.
"Cosmic!" Mario exclaims in amazement. "See-a ya later, Earth!"
Charles then looked at Mario as he spoke, "It's gonna be a long ride, Plumber Boy. So break out the tunes!"
Suddenly, Mario then pulled out a tape.
"Let's rock!" Mario laughs eagerly.
He placed the tape in a cassette player of some sort in the rocket, and it started playing conga music. They started dancing around like fools, but were unaware that a small TV just turned on with a scientist speaking.
"This is ground control. Come in, men." The first scientist spoke out clearly.
However, the two didn't hear as they were too busy dancing to the conga music, while Mario shook maracas that he had found somewhere. Back on Earth, the scientists looked confused at why the two were dancing the conga at a time like this. In the shuttle, Mario shook his maracas and exclaimed merrily.
"Mamma-mia! Everbody-a conga!" Mario laughs then he begins scatting. "Bum-bum-bum-bum-bum-ba!"
Back on Earth, the scientists couldn't help but give in to the beat of the music being played, as they all started dancing around happily in a conga line, all around the room. Of course, one scientist was struggling to fight the urge to join in the conga, while drawing a shape on a paper.
"Must...fight...urge...conga...not an option!" The first scientist mumbles, trying to fight the conga. He finished drawing, before hurrying to the screen and speaking through the communicator. During this time, the two astronauts kept dancing until they heard the scientist's voice shout. "Stop!"
The two stopped, as did the music and they turned to see the scientist holding up the paper that had a "Stop" sign on it.
Mario, mimicking De Niro, ask, "Are they talking to us?"
"Well, we are the only ones here, so...yeah." Charles said with a nod.
"Okay, you are on approach to the moon." The second scientist sighs as both men got back to their seats.
"Right, thanks, Houston." Charles said as he prepares for landing.
"Wait, what if-a I have to go?" Mario ask worried, concerned about..."going".
"Go in your spacesuit, that's what they're for!" Charles exclaims, pointing out what the spacesuits are for. "Let's see...which buttons go where..."
Mario glances at his own controls, tapping a few. Eventually, beeps and sounds are heard, similar to the "Axel F" song. The plumber then plays them to the beat.
On Earth, most of the scientists were confused at what Mario's doing now, but some of them begin dancing along, shaking their groove themselves as well.
Back on the shuttle, Charles gasps, stopping Mario as he exclaims, "There's the moon!"
"Prepare for moon landing." The second scientist said as the shuttle is preparing to land on the moon itself.
"Open cargo bay doors." The third scientist said as he pushes a button.
"Roger!" Charles's voice is heard over the radio in determination.
The space shuttle opens up in space as Mario is in his space gear, riding his tow truck. It's time to help Star Lord!
"Operation: Tow Plumber is a-go." The fourth scientist said as Mario was lifted away, heading towards the waiting moon.
"Okie dokie!" Mario exclaims in determination.
"Well, good luck, Mario, see you back on Earth." Charles said to Mario over the comlink. The pilot hopes that the new astronaut can find Star Lord and brings him home safely. The plumber meanwhile looks amazed at the moon, arriving on the dark side.
"Mama mia!" Mario exclaims in amazement. The astronaut check the details then uses his boosters to land safely. "The Moon Mario has landed."
Mario hops a bit in his vehicle and soon found Star Lord, struggling to get his aircraft to work. Upon spotting the hero, he exclaims, "Mario! Thank goodness you're here! I was told you were coming. Quick. Get your rescue apparatus to the frontal structural component of the line axel assembly. Pronto!"
"Mama mia! Too-a complicated! How-a about I give you a tow?"
"Okay, that works too." Star Lord remarks with a shrug. Mario got to work and hooked the machine up to the shuttle, then heads out to tow the stranded astronaut and the pilot still inside the shuttle out of the moon. "All right, mission accomplished. Now take us home."
"Okie dokie! But don't ya wanna get dropped off-a at the space station before I-a head back to-a Ancient Springs?" Mario ask, misunderstanding what Star Lord is telling him.
"That's what I meant. Rotate thrusters!"
"Got it!"
Mario got to work, doing as Star Lord said as he continues, "Prime ignition."
"Check." Mario said with a nod.
"Pivot bolster columns."
"What?"
"Disengage inertial dampener." Star Lord said the next part of the check. Of course, this left Mario more confused as he has no idea what he's talking about.
"Huh?" Mario ask, confused some more.
"Ignite propulsion system."
"Blast off!"
Charles and Star Lord hold onto their butts, yelping as the trio begins zooming off. The astronaut screams as he is being towed the wrong way, with everyone making their approach to Earth very fast.
"Well, there-a I was, doing 17,000 miles an hour."
------------------
"17,000 miles an hour, really?" Sonic ask in disbelief by this. He chuckles. "No way!"
"Oh, yes-a way." Mario said to Sonic with a smirk, giving the hedgehog an uncomfortable feeling. "It-a was nothing compared-a to you!'
"Let me guess: Sonic is in this story?" Emerl ask Mario, though he doesn't really need to guess.
"Yep! He-a was there too!"
-------------
And there's Sonic, wearing space gear zooming forward, screaming like mad in his car attached to a rocket. The hedgehog looks around then smirks excitedly.
"Oh yeah! This is way past awesome!" Sonic exclaims excitedly. "YAHOO!"
Sonic speeds past the two, though he ended up twirling Star Lord in the process, causing the hero to groan as he recovers from the experience he has gone through.
"Watch-a out for the re-entry!" Mario calls out to Sonic as the four are zooming towards the planet very fast.
"Wait, what?!" Sonic asks in shock and horror. The hedgehog begins zooming downward as his rocket begins burning up. Sonic yelps in pain like mad, "Ouch! Hot, hot, hot, hot, hot!!!"
All four of the group headed back to Earth...where the screaming Sonic splashes right into the ocean, his parachute was activated before landing right into the water. Mario and Star Lord, in parachutes of their own, landed safely right into a raft that ended up below them.
As the aircraft carrier sails over while a helicopter controlled flies on over, Sonic resurfaces, getting out of the rocket as he coughs out water. Mario smirks as he grabs his best friend pulling his best friend out of the water.
"I-a gotcha." Mario said to Sonic with a light chuckle. The hedgehog groans a bit as he spits out more water. That was crazy!
--------------
A photo of Mario, Sonic and Star Lord is taken as the trio ends up on a newspaper which has the words "Mario Saves the Day! Guardian XIII Crew Rescue by Moon Mario" and "Mayor Declares Moon Mario Day". A parade was given with the astronaut heroes in it, cheering and waving to the crowd.
"Yep! We was a couple-a of bona fide heroes."
On a talk show, Mario and his pals were being interviewed by a talk show host who smiles while asking, "So Mario, when does an astronaut eat?"
"At launch time." Mario smirks while making a joke, which everyone laughs at.
Yes, sir, the heroes even made magazine, which shows Mario's rescue efforts. They are indeed big time heroes!
-----------
Sonic however shakes his head as he remarks, "Come on, that never happen."
"Well, suit-a yourself." Mario remarks with a shrug. If Sonic refuses to believe that story, who is the plumber to change his mind?
Without warning, a familiar rocket appears, much to Sonic and Emerl's surprise. A familiar astronaut peeks out while calling, "Mario! Houston has another problem!"
"Roger!" Mario laughs as he hopped right into the ship. Looks like the plumber has another job to do!
"Let's burn this candle!" Charles laughs in determination as the two in the rocket zooms right off. "Oh yeah!"
"Well, still refused to believe it?" Emerl ask Sonic in amusement, causing the hedgehog to slap himself on the forehead in disbelief. When is he ever going to learn?
----------
We see Mario and Sonic flying in space wearing rockets, smiling to the camera then zooms on off.
The End
Author's note
Far out space adventure! In the next chapter, it's Mario as a rock star! Oh yeah! Read, review and suggest.
This chapter references the Super Mario Galaxy games and the crossover episode of the Mask Animated Series and Ace Ventura: Pet Detective Animated Series.
Heavy Metal Mario
At a familiar shack at night, a logo is shown on top of the place with lights glowing behind it. A crowd is heard cheering as if waiting for someone to come out of the shack.
"Sonic's Cars Toons: Mario's Tall Tales"
Indeed, as we hear a familiar horn honking as the door fell down. Mario came out, shouting, "IF I'M-A LYING, I'M-A CRYING!"
Heavy Metal Mario
The crowd is at the local cafe, watching Yoshi singing the Camptown Races in his own language to a Karaoke video. Although they can't understand a lick of what he's saying, they enjoyed it.
Sonic's group is watching as the hedgehog ask Mario, "Say, Mario? How come you don't get up there and sing?"
"Yeah, I bet you got one cool voice." Emerl said in agreement.
"Awww, mama mia." Mario said, rubbing his hair in embarrassment. "I-a don't wanna upstage Yoshi of-a course."
"Wait, upstage?" Sonic ask Mario puzzled. What is his best friend talking about?
"Well, I-a was a big rock star once."
"Wait, you a rock star?" Emerl ask Mario surprised though Sonic just glares at his best friend in disbelief.
"Yep! I-a started out in a garage band." Mario admits proudly as he gets into another one of his stories.
----------
In a house in the story, Mario was singing on the mic as his band played behind him. The drums played behind him with the drums having the words "Mario and the Miis" taped right on it.
Mario: Mama mia, mama mia, mama mia, maaaama mia
Mama mia, mama mia, mama maia, mama mia, mama mia
Maaama mia
Once the song is over, Mario smiles eagerly as he spoke, "We-a sing pretty good. Say, let's-a get a gig."
--------
And sure enough, the band got their gig at a truck stop. A crowd watched them performs a bit.
Mama mia, mama mia, mama mia, maaaama mia
Mama mia, mama mia, mama mia, mama mia, mama mia
A ma-mama,ma-ma,a-ma-Maaama mia
Okay, granted, it's just Mario saying "mama mia" over and over, but the crowd loves it!
Once the song is done, Mario calls out eagerly, "Don't-a forget to-a tip your waitresses."
There's Tessa and Vanessa James serving drinks to the guests. Tessa giggles, "Wow, that so rocked!"
"Yeah, I know" Vanessa admits with a playful giggle.
The girls giggled a bit as they ask Mario, "So, you guys got a record?"
"Uh..." Mario said as he looks at his band. One of them shakes his head, they had to get a record apparently. "Be-a right back!"
-------------
And so, Mario and his band performs and record a song at a local recording studio to get their record.
Mama mia, mama mia., mama mia,maaaama mia
Mama mia, mama mia, mama mia, mama mia, mama mia
The musicians work to ensure the pitch was right on the music. No need to makes it worst. Of course, during the song, a drummer named Mii Brawler kept playing but notices a flying landing on his eyes. Annoyed, he tries to floosh and spit it away, but got to the point that he tries to hit it with his drumsticks like mad.
During the madness, Mii Brawler didn't notice the rapid music he's playing as he screams, "Hold still!"
"What the...?" Mario ask confused as the rest of the band saw Mii Brawler playing rapidly. The one on guitar, Mii Swordsman, became impressed and plays loudly as the one on bass, Mii Gunner, follows suit. The musicians soon notice and excitedly turn the pitch up high. "Oh yeah! YEE OOOOH!!!"
The group plays their instrument loudly and more metalish. Now this is more better!
Mama mia, mama mia!
Roooooah! Mama mia, mama mia!
The folks outside the studio listen to the noise, looking amazed as one of them ask, "Wow, what's that sound?'
Now at this time, a talent agent named Nigel came out of his car, smiling at the music. He said, "Sounds like angels printing money!"
Inside the music, Mario was finishing up his loud song as he shouts at the top of his lungs.
MAMA MIIIIIIA!!! YEOW!!
Once the song is over, Mario kicks his mic away as Mii Brawler twirls his drumsticks like a pro. That was awesome!
The band hears applauding as Nigel came into the room, speaking, "You boys are good! I like it. Now what you need is a new name."
"The Mario Mario Experience!"Mii Swordsmans suggested thoughtfully.
"No, that name is taken!"
"A new name? A new name?" Mario ask thoughtfully as he ponders on what name to use.
"The Mario Mario Project." Mii Gunner said with a smile on his face, suggesting a name.
Nigel however scoffs, dismissing the idea as he said, "Too underrated."
"Oh, I get it! The Mario Weirdoes!" Mii Brawler exclaims, suggesting another name to try.
"No, you boys aren't even trying! You need a name that spells awesome!"
Just then a delivery man came in with a package, calling out, "Delivery! So where do you want this heavy metal, Mario?"
"That's-a it!" Mario exclaims excitedly. And thus, the new band "Heavy Metal Mario" was born!
-----------
The new band begins their journey into stardom; as rock music was heard, a record was spinning with the cover showing the name of the band "Heavy Metal Mario". It has an exaggerated artwork of Mario as monster in chains. Go fig.
Anyway, at a rock concert, the crowd cheers on as the spotlights shine on the band, playing their music and singing very loudly.
Mama mia! Mama mia! Mama mia!
The band played wildly and loudly as their main singer kept on singing like mad.
Mama mia! Mama mia! Mama mia!
Mario laughs as he hops right near the mic.
MAMA MIIIIIA!!
Mario made his tongue flicker a bit like an actual rock star. He shouts out, "I-a wanna hear you! MAMA MIA!"
"MAMA MIA!" The girls in Heavy Metal gears shouts out excitedly in the crowd.
"MAMA MIA!"
"MAMA MIA!!" The crowd shouted out excitedly now.
"MAMA MIIIIIIIA!!!" Mario shouts out eagerly as a huge balloon version of him came out with wings coming out. The lights flicks as the crowd cheers wildly.
---------
"You were Heavy Metal Mario?" Sonic ask Mario skeptically back in reality.
"Nope! We-a was Heavy Metal Mario." Mario explains with a smirk, making Sonic groan. Why did he even ask?
-----------
Back in the story, the fireworks died down at the stage. There's Sonic, in heavy metal clothes like the band, shouting excitedly to the crowd, "Oh yeah! Are you all ready to rock?!"
"Yeah!" Everyone cheers out excitedly for the new addition (so to speak).
"Oh, yeah! Way past cool!"
Sonic hops over to Mario near the mic. The two friends play the two keyboards as they sing.
Sonic: Mama mia!
Mario: Mama mia!
Sonic: Mama mia!
Mario: Mama mia!
Sonic: Mama mia!
"MAMA MIA!" Mario shouts out excitedly to the crowd eagerly.
"MAMA MIA!" Sonic shouts out even loudly as his best friend.
As the Miis Gunner and Brawler plays a bit loudly, Mii Swordsman hops and slid near the stage as he plays his guitar loudly. As the song came to an end, the band did a pose with flames blowing up behind them, much to the excitement of the crowd who cheers wildly, mainly for Mario and Sonic.
----------------
"Sorry, Mario, that didn't happen." Sonic in reality chuckles in disbelief. The hedgehog doesn't even recalled even being a rock star.
"Suit-a yourself," Mario remarks with a shrug as he looks up to the sky as if saying "better look up".
Emerl turns and looks up and exclaims, "Whoa!"
Sonic turns and looks up in shock. There it is, the giant scary Mario balloon floating above everyone. How long was it even up there?!
"Okay, I need a chili dog, bad." Sonic remarks with a groan of disbelief as he shakes his head at the balloon.
---------
As rock music plays, Mario is sparkling with bat wings up as he appears to end this short.
"WHOA!" Mario cheers wildly, flying upward to the sky and heads to Saturn, much to the disbelief of Sonic who glances at him. "MAMA MIIIIA!"
The End
Author's note
Yahoo! It's Mario the rock star, folks! In the next chapter, Mario is a private detective, working to help Tessa find her missing sister and tangling with the evil frog criminal Constantine. Read, review and suggest.
The Mii characters appeared in the new Super Smash Bros. game.
Nigel is a music talent agent who appears in an episode of "The Simpsons" when Homer was in a barbershop like band.
The first two names suggested reference the bands, The Jimi Hendrix Experience and The Allan Parsons' Project.
Mario Mario: Private Eye
The story starts at a familiar hack at night. The scene looks deliberately monochrome as the logo is shown.
"Sonic's Cars Toons: Mario's Tall Tales"
The usual horn honking is heard as the door fell once more Mario came out, looking noir like as he spoke like Edward G. Robinson, "If I'm-a lying, I'm-a crying, see?"
Mario Mario: Private Eye
It was afternoon in Ancient Springs. Sonic and Emerl drove their vehicles up to Daisy as the hedgehog spoke, "Morning, Daisy. All right if I can get some air? My tires are going flat."
Suddenly without warning, Mario jumps near the two friends, causing them to jump in alarm. Emerl yells out, "Gah! Hey, don't do that!"
"Oh, sorry. Did I-a save you two?" Mario ask his pals sheepishly.
"Yeah, you did." Sonic said with a sigh as Mario pulls out an Ipod to watch Blazing Scales. "So what do you want?"
"Flat-a Tires, you say? I-a believed I-a solved that crime."
"Wait, what?"
The clip shows Twilight giving out some papers to Spike. In concern, the unicorn spoke, "Sheriff, while you were - out - we got this writ demanding Big Mac's release."
"Really?" Spike ask as she looks at it. "Yeah. Signed by the Flim Flams themselves. Though why high rollers like the Flim Flam Brothers would be interested in Big Mac - no offense, Applejack."
"None taken, Sheriff." Applejack said, assuring Spike that no offense is given here.
"Anyway, why THEY would be interested in him is beyond me. Still," Splash then takes a bucket of water, comes over and splashes a chained up Big Mac, "wake up, big guy. I just got this writ demanding your release."
Big Mac manages to remove himself from his chains: as he yawns. The stallion spoke, "Nope. I'm staying here. You, Mister Maregillian and Miss Fluttershy beat me fair and square and your other deputies rescued my sisters. I have developed WAY too much respect AND gratitude to bail on you."
"I hope you don't plan on cheating on Miss Cheerilee, Mac." Applejack said to Big Macintosh, concerned for his relationship with Cheerilee.
"Heck no. I wouldn't do that, AJ."
As Big Macintosh sat down in a chair, stretching, Spike curiously spoke, "Well, could you give us a clue as to why the Flim Flams are interested in you. No offense intended."
"None taken. Anyway, I don't know. I know they gang I was forced to work for until recently worked for the railroad, but I don't know how the Flim Flams are involved." Big Macintosh said with a big frown on his face. "After all, I'm just a pawn in the game of life."
"Well, time for us to do some snooping. Twilight, you and I will head for the railroad workers camp. Pinkie and Rainbow, you two are the fastest among us. You two head for the state capitol and find out what you can over there. The rest of you keep the peace around here, just in case."
Mario, the one watching the clip, spoke, "You know. This clip is reminding me about my days as a detective."
"You, a private eye?" Emerl ask Mario in surprise, not realizing what he was on about earlier.
"No way!" Sonic exclaims in disbelief.
"Yes-a way!" Mario exclaims with a chuckle. "It was 7:1 on a Friday Night..."
----------
Our story begins at some sort of motel. Inside is an office with a window that has the logo "M.M. Private Eye on it. Mario narrates, "I-a was working downtown doing mostly-a small jobs. But this-a time, I was onto something-a big. It was all right there-a in black and white."
Sonic's voice ask confused, "So wait, why is it in black and white?'
"Because colors wasn't-a invented yet of course!" Mario's voice explains snappishly to his best friend.
Inside the office, Mario is in Sam Spade like clothing as the detective checks out papers which has these articles "Accidents Caused by Bad Tires", "Blowouts Everywhere" and "Counterfeit Tire Ring". He frowns while slapping the stuff onto the ground.
"There-a was blowouts all over. There-a was some kind of counterfeit tire ring involved..."
Mario glances at something in interest, sort of: a small ad on the bottom.
"As well-a as wee a sale on trailer hitches down-a at Rusty Rod's."
Mario grabs a cigar, preparing to smoke a bit as he ponders.
"I-a was preparing to-a hit the bricks...when she came in..."
Mario spots someone coming into the officer, a girl named Tessa James and she looks sad and upset.
"She-a was wearing some whitewall-a rings...that ones that-a would've drive me-a crazy."
"Hey Mario." Tessa said to Mario in concern.
"Tessa? What-a you doing here and-a without your sister?" Mario ask Tessa in concern as he knows of her sister, Vanessa, whom she is never without.
"I missed you."
"Like-a how you-a missed your last smog check!" Mario snaps sternly as he heads to window to smoke hbis cigar.
"Come on, you don't have to play poker with me. I'm too good for that." Tessa said with a hopeful sly grin to Mario.
"Well, no surprise since-a you were the wild card. So what-a you want?"
"I need your help to find my sister. She has been...kidnapped!" Tessa begins to say as she cry a bit, apparently worried over what happened to her sister Vanessa.
"Awww, no-a more waterworks. So where-a did you last saw her?" Mario ask Tessa with an annoyed frown on his face. Perhaps he could help her, just so she can stop crying!
"She was working for Constantine."
Thunder flashed the room a bit, making Mario ponders. He knows of Constantine, the most dangerous criminal in the city. No one has ever caught him as he avoids evaded capture. If Constantine is indeed up to something, then time for Mario to finally catch him and put him behind bars.
"Constantine, did-a you say?" Mario ask puzzled as he takes a whiff of his cigar...then coughs like mad. "Ugh! Gotta cut back!"
Tessa didn't waste time in tossing a paper to the desk. It shows an article with a green frog with a mole on his face under the words "Constantine Opens Night Club". The girl explains, "My sister worked at his club, the "Cococabana".
--------------
Mario didn't waste time in heading down to the nighttime, preparing for some answers. Inside the place, a Mariachi Band with three kids named Manny Rivera, Frida Suárez, and Davi Roccco were performing instruments while a Brazilian woman named Aurora who is singing to the crowd.
Mario is in the crowd watching he performance. As the "cha cha cha" words were heard, the song came to an end. The crowd cheers to the crowd as Aurora calls out, "Oooh! Mucho gracia! Ha ha!" Aurora hops the stage as she spots Mario was watching. As she came over, the woman ask, "You wanted to see me, senor?"
"Yes. I-a am looking for Vanessa James. You seen her?" Mario ask Aurora curiously.
"Aurora, that ragtop. Can't remember."
"Perhaps, this-a will help you remember."
Mario slams an item onto the place which Aurora looks at carefully. She hums, "Hmmm...maybe..." The detective sighs as he put the rest of the valuables right onto the table, making her gasp, "Ooooh! Oh yes. I remember now. Heh heh." The woman leans to Mario as she continues, "I saw her a couple of days ago with Constantine."
"Any-a chance you can tell me where-a they go?" Mario ask Aurora anxiously.
"Not sure and don't care. But she does smell salty...like the ocean."
"Hey!" An annoyed voice exclaims as the two turns to see a man glaring. "This bum bugging ya?
"Nope, but a girl can hope." Aurora said to the man, giving a sly grin to Mario, much to his discomfort. He didn't come here, looking for a date!
Suddenly a monster named Sweetums appears, growling at Mario, "Well, he's bugging me, the nosy fatso!"
Without warning, Mario was tossed right out of the building, hitting a weasel. Sweetums came up and snatches the plumber up, making him snaps, "Whoa! Hello, Sweetums. Still doing-a underling jobs?"
"You're being a very nosy guy, aren't ya?"
"So what-a if I am?"
"Do you know who happened to bums who sticks their noises into the wrong places?" Sweetums ask Mario with a growl. "Wanna guess, place?"
"I-a don't know." Mario said, blinking and not sure if he will like where this is going. "A mudbath?"
"They lose this!"
Mario yelps as Sweetums pulls his hat off and grabs his hair hard. The detective screams as the monster pulls part of it right off. That gotta hurt!
"Next time, it will be the mustache, got it?!" Sweetums snaps as he tosses Mario to the ground, heading off.
"I-a was down to bits of-a my hair. But I still-a continue just fine."
Mario came down the alley, fixing his hair a bit. He looks around and spots a moleman named Harry operating a dump struck as he's putting trash in it.
"Hey-a Harry. What's-a the word on the street?" Mario ask Harry hopefully. If anyone got any information on certain criminal activities, it should be this moleman.
"I don't know." Harry remarks with a shrug.
"Don't know?"
"Nope! They got me working the alleys, dumping all these blowout tires."
"Blowouts, you-a say?" Mario ask, pondering on what Harry just said.
"Right, very odd if you ask me." Harry remarks with a shrug, getting Mario's attention.
"Odd? How-a so?"
"They got this weird smell."
"Smell?"
"They-a smell salty." Harry remarks, sniffing the tires and gagging a bit.
"Salty?" Mario ask in surprise upon hearing that. Just like Vanessa from how Aurora described her back at the club! Interesting.
"Right, like the ocean."
"Ocean?"
"Yep. Haven't smelled that since I worked down at the docks." Harry remarks, recalling the last time he smells something from the ocean which is salty.
"Rocks?" Mario ask, misunderstanding what Harry said at first.
"No, no. Docks!"
"Ducks?"
"No, no, Docks!" Harry exclaims impatiently to Mario.
"Right, docks! Thanks-a, Harry!" Mario exclaims as he quickly heads off. Looks like Constantine is up to something at the docks, the tires and Vanessa are connected!
"No problem. Not sure what I did, but oh well."
-----------
Mario arrives at the docks where a few Muppet workers were working the operation. Mario was peeking behind his hiding place then gagged upon seeing a familiar girl tied up and gagged.
"Vanessa!" Mario gasps quickly. He put some boxes onto himself as he begins heading off, going past some men who were working and unaware of his presence.
"Hey, come on! Put a little hustle into it!" A voice exclaims quickly.
A noise is heard, getting the attention of the villains who are playing cards. As they look around and spotted something, one of them whistles to a villain named Angel Marie working the crane.
"Huh?" Angel Marie growls then he quickly works on using the hook to grab something that his pals just spotted...a certain box disguise which was pulled off of Mario!
"Huh? Uh oh." Mario yelps as he saw the crowd surrounding Mario. Not good, he has been exposed. The detective looks at the worried gagged Vanessa...then up came a familiar frog with a mole on his face. "Mama mia! It's-a Constantine! Wait until I tell-a the DA!"
"You aren't telling anything, detective." Constantine spoke sternly. Suddenly, without warning Mario was snatched by the crane, causing him to yelp as Angel Marie pulls him upward.
"Mama mia! What?! I-a being shanghaied!"
"No, stop!" A familiar voice exclaims in horror. Mario saw Tessa rushing onto the scene in shock. Of course, it makes sense now!
"Tessa! You-a double-crossing double-crosser!" Mario exclaims angrily to Tessa. The girl has set him up to be killed by Constantine!
"I'm sorry, I didn't have a choice! It was the only way to save my sister."
"Well, you-a always did the right thing. Too-a bad it was just the wrong way."
Angel Marie turns his crane around, preparing to make a big killing onto Mario. Tessa gasps in horror, "No!" She didn't wanted this to happen, especially when the hero is being taken towards the ocean.
One drop and it's all over!
---------
"Whoa!" Sonic exclaims in surprise and amazement back in reality. "So what did you do?"
Mario comment, "Don't you remember, Lieutenant Hedgehog? I mean, not only did you save my bacon with the help of the police, but Doc Garrick was there as the Flash with some of his Justice Society teammates."
-----------------
The flashback shows Sonic arriving with several cops, the Flash, the Alan Scott Green Lantern, the Al Pratt Atom, Wildcat, Doctor Mid-Nite, Hourman and Hawkman. The hedgehog, in Eddie Valiant type clothing, snaps in determination, "Looks like we got you this time, Constantine!"
The villains turns to see the newcomers, much to Constantine's shock as he yells out, "What?! Hedgehog?! How did that blasted rodent found out?!'
"First off, I'm a hedgehog, not a rodent. Second, Mario's GPS signal before coming here, that's how!"
"Ugh, stupid men! Why did I worked with losers?!' Constantine groans out as the heroes rushes over to the ship. "Get them!"
The villains didn't waste time in working to attack, tossing barrels at the heroes who yelped and dodged. Sonic exclaims, "Whoa!"
"Mario!" Tessa exclaims as she quickly got to work on the controls that Angel Marie has overlooked which are on the bottom. The girl taps the reverse, which send Mario crashing to the ground, hard but safe.
"Whoa!" Mario exclaims. As he recovers, he looks at the edge of the crane and smirks, having an idea. The detectives grabs some ropes, somehow tied the crane with it and run, amazingly strong enough to twirl it and Angel Marie Around. "YAHOO!!!"
Constantine didn't have time to dodge as the crane hook with the box broke right off, sending it crashing right onto the villainous frog. He groans, knocked out and defeated.
Some boxes opens up during the struggle, causing Mario to take a look. In a smirk of triumph, he spoke, "Aha! I-a thought so! Counterfeit tires. This-a proves that Constantine is-a behind the blowouts!"
As Sonic and the heroes came over, the hedgehog smiles as he said, "You led us right to him, Mario. All right, guys, take him away."
As the police and heroes drove off with the prisoners to take them to prisoner, Mario glares at the one who got him into this mess: Tessa peeking from an alley, obviously feeling bad that he almost got killed.
"Well, it-a was a fine mess you-a got me into, Tessa." Mario said sternly to Vanessa.
"Aww, I am not bad, Mario. I am just born that way." Tessa said as she prepares to leave. "So, how about this: we can pick up where we left off?"
But when Tessa turns back around, she gasps as Mario is nowhere in sight. Looks like the detective has left, a job well done.
---------
Back in reality, Emerl comments in amazement, "Wow, did that really happen?"
Sonic comment, "Hey. Come on, I wasn't even BORN in the 1940s, much less a police lieutenant. That's the dumbest thing I've ever heard so far."
Suddenly as noise is heard as the trio turns to see three familiar kids playing their instruments. Aurora, leading a conga line, spoke up, "Come on, Mario! Everyone, conga!"
"All right-a, right behind you!" Mario exclaims with a smirk to the woman.
Mario rushes off to join the conga line. Emerl smirks as he follows, much to Mario's further shock as the two heads off to the conga line. What in the world?
---------
We see the trio, Aurora and the El Tigre kids chanting and posing as they sing, "Cha cha cha."
