Mario's Final Fight: A Game Boy-Inspired Battle for Daisy's Freedom

(🎧 Audio Version) Mario's Final Fight: A Game Boy-Inspired Battle for Daisy's Freedom

[📖 Prefer reading? Here's the story in script format.] ⬇

(Scene: YOU, Mario, land your airplane outside TATANGA’s castle, staring at the massive gate ahead.)

You: Two ❤️ left… just two. And Tatanga’s fireballs never miss. One mistake, and it’s over. For me… for Daisy.

(You glance at the dashboard, where your coin counter reads 99. Regret twists your face.)

You: One coin short of 100. One coin short of another ❤️. If I hadn’t rushed when the music sped up, I could’ve grabbed it. But no… I panicked. I wasn’t ready for this.

(You tighten your grip, frustration bubbling up.)

You: And I didn’t grab a single 🍄 before landing. No power-ups, no second chances. What was I thinking?

(Memories of past levels flash through your mind.)

You: I shouldn’t even be alive. The boulders, the tombs, the zombies… Somehow, I’ve survived. I wonder… is there a God in this Sarasaland? Or was I just lucky?

(You flip a few switches on the control panel, checking the system one last time and readying your airplane for battle.)

You: Luck or not, I’ve made it this far. Now it’s time to finish this—one way or another.

(You take a deep breath, but a booming voice interrupts.)

Tatanga: Well, well, well. Mario. I was wondering when you’d show up.

(Tatanga’s massive spacecraft descends, weapons glowing. He grins from his cockpit.)

Tatanga: Two ❤️ left? That’s all? You should’ve stayed home. You don’t stand a chance against me!

(Your gaze shifts briefly from Tatanga to a small picture taped to the control panel—a picture of your twin brother Luigi, who died at Tatanga’s hands.)

You: We’ll see about that, Tatanga. Daisy’s waiting for me, and I’m not leaving without her!

(Tatanga laughs and fires a barrage of fireballs. You narrowly dodge them.)

Tatanga: Let’s see how long you last, plumber-boy!

(You lock your eyes on Tatanga’s spacecraft. With determination, you charge forward, ready to face the final fight.)
