Mario & Luigi: Bowser's Inside Story

Story

After the Mushroom Kingdom's citizens begin to fall victim to the mysterious "blorbs," Princess Peach calls a meeting, which is attended by Mario, Luigi some Toads, and new character, Starlow, have discovered the cause of the disease. As Peach is giving a meeting on its effects, Bowser breaks into the meeting. He is quickly defeated by Mario. Peach and Starlow use their powers to send him to Dimble Wood, and the meeting continues. Meanwhile, Bowser gets an item called a "Lucky Mushroom". In realty though, it is actually a "Vacuum Mushroom", which is a trap set by Fawful, who is also behind the blorb epidemic. It allows him to control Bowser's actions[5], and gives Bowser the ability to inhale everything. Bowser goes to Peach's meeting and inhales everyone there. While gloating about his victory, he mysteriously falls unconscious, and Fawful appears to take him away.

Mario reawakens alone inside Bowser's body. Now, he is microscopic along with the others,he also finds protective cells trying to clean Bowser's body of anything alien or inpure. Nearby, he finds Luigi and Starlow. The three of them set out to reawaken Bowser.

Mario and Luigi fighting in the Trash Pit.They come across an exposed nerve, and attack it, which rouses Bowser. He discovers that he has somehow come to Cavi Cape Cave. He sets out north, towards his castle. As he is leaving Cavi Cape Cave for Plack Beach, he is confronted by a mysterious voice explaining the concept of Chakroads to him. A Chakroad is a portal that allows him to quickly traverse the Mushroom Kingdom.
At Plack Beach, Bowser hears a voice calling to him from a small island. He sees the famous block collector, Broque. Initially reluctant to help, Bowser is convinced when Broque offers him the Vacuum Block, an object that gives its user the capacity to use a powerful suction attack. After rescuing Broque, Bowser must fight his missing pet, Broggy. At the north end of the Beach, Bowser comes across the Sea Pipe Statue. Because it is dedicated to an ancient hero, Bowser begins to vandalize it. Unbeknown to to Bowser, Fawful's cronies have imbued it with the power of self defense, and it attacks him. After Bowser deactivates it, a stream of water flows from the statue. Drinking from it, Bowser inadvertently opens a path allowing the Mario Brothers to reactivate his fire breath, which is being blocked by the parasite Scutlet. He uses this rediscovered skill to continue northward, back to Dimble Wood.

In the forest, Bowser runs across some of his old troops. Fawful has trapped an army of still loyal Goombas in a cage. When Bowser frees them, they accompany him for the remainder of his time as a leader-in-exile, allowing him to use the attack Goomba Storm. He also meets up with Sergeant Guy, Corporal Paraplonk, and Private Goomp, three former troops from his army. They are attempting to retake the castle using a Banzai Bill cannon, but they don't have any ammunition. Bowser heads to a garden maintained by a Wiggler clan. Bowser finds a huge carrot, which he thinks may make a suitable replacement, but a local Wiggler is infuriated when he removes it. The Wiggler demands that he eat the carrot and battle him. Afterwards, it turns out that the Wiggler happened to have a Banzai Bill at home. Bowser takes this and returns to the clearing where his troops are setting up the cannon. On the way, he is stricken with a horrible pain. The Mario Bros. discover that the source of this pain is the hornworm-like Durmite, who is running rampant inside Bowser. After Durmite is defeated, she shrinks down to the size of Mario's foot and scuttles off. Exploring their current location, the Marios find Toadbert and unlock the Sliding Punch.

Bowser returns to the Banzai Bill cannon and fires his newly acquired ammo at his castle. Midbus, a minion of Fawful who has been put in charge of the castle, is none too pleased with this. He lifts the entire castle up on rockets and flies it to Dimble Wood. He sets it down directly on top of Bowser, who is thoroughly unprepared for having a castle land on his head. The Marios travel to his Adrenal glands, and there cause a spike in Bowser's hormones. This causes Bowser to grow to almost the size of the castle itself. He engages it in battle, and is able to damage it significantly enough to force Midbus into retreat. Bowser then returns to his normal size, and discovers that a path has been cleared through the forest during the fight. He continues north to the castle.

At the castle, he discovers that his subjects have been brainwashed by Fawful, who is hosting some kind of theater event in the castle later that day. When he arrives at the theater, he's informed that there is a special reserved seat for him. As the event goes on Fawful announces that they have a very special guest. Bowser's chair suddenly goes flying towards the stage, where he lands in a heap. Fawful tells the crowd that there's going to be a fight to the death between Bowser and Midbus. A cage lowers, and they begin battling. After Bowser wins, a group of Boos escorts him to the winner's feast. Here, at the insistence of the boos, Bowser eats so much that he breaks through the floor with his weight.

While attempting to find a solution, the Mario Bros. discover Princess Peach. However, she is kidnapped almost immediately by Alpha Kretin. The Marios chase it to a dead end and rescue Peach. Peach informs them of Fawful's plan to steal the Dark Star, an ancient artifact held beneath Toad Town. However, Fawful uses an unknown machine to kidnap Peach. After using a treadmill and (literally) burning off some calories, Bowser sees a Bob-omb. He attacks it with his fire, but it quickly walks over to a much larger group of Bob-ombs and explodes, setting off a chain reaction that catapults Bowser to an Underground Tunnel beneath Cavi Cape Cave.

Here, Bowser meets a clan of Monty Moles, who are digging a connecting tunnel to the Toad Town underground. When Bowser arrives there, however, he activates a trap and is knocked unconscious. The shock of the trap has knocked something loose inside Bowser, and the Mario Bros. discover the Pipe Yard, a network of warp pipes out of their ally. They end up somewhere in the Toad Town underground, and begin looking for the Dark Star in hopes of securing it against Fawful. However, they are too late.

Destroyed machine that protected the Dark Star.Fawful takes it and heads for Peach's castle. Chasing after him, they are stopped at the castle gates by the Dark Star's power. They go to the local clinic to see how Doctor Toadley's research on the blorbs is going.

At the Toadley Clinic.However, while talking in Doctor Toadley's office, Bowser barges in and engages the Mario Bros. in battle. After Bowser is defeated, Doctor Toadley tells the Marios that the three Star Cures are the cure for the blorbs. He explains that the first is held by Durmite, of Dimble Wood. However, Mario remembers that Durmite is no longer at Dimble Wood, so the heroes set off in search of Durmite.

As soon as the Marios re-enter Bowser, they spot Durmite and begin to chase her. However, they are stopped when she runs behind a mysterious wall of green Boo Blocks. Meanwhile, Bowser is headed to Durmite's last known location, Dimble Wood. On the way, however, a large mechanized tower attacks Bowser. As earlier, Bowser grows to the size of the tower to fight it. After defeating it, Bowser enters the now-docile tower and climbs to its summit. Here he meets the ghost of Yikk, the deceased owner of the tower.


Yikk presents the Boo-Ray Machine.Yikk explains the Boo-ray Machine, a device he designed that can have various effects on Boos. By shining this light at Bowser's body, the Mario Bros. are able to resume their chase of Durmite. When they catch up to her, she engages them in battle, revealing her true form as Wisdurm. After her defeat, she gives the first Star Cure to the Marios.



Bowser meets up with Private Goomp, who reminds him that there's something like a Star Cure in the Bowser's Castle vaults. Heading there, Bowser is shocked to find that a railroad has been installed in the vault, and is used by the Fawful Express. The Monty Moles from earlier explain to Bowser how he requested for the tunnel to be built, however Bowser has no remembering of this.

Bowser encounters the Fawful Express.The Fawful Express prepares to leave Bowser's Castle, whilst Bowser is on the tracks, and in an attempt to stop the train, Bowser is crushed by it instead. Thinking quickly, the Marios once again journey to Bowser's adrenal glands. The now-giant Koopa King quickly takes revenge on the train. Returning to the vaults, he discovers the safe that the Star Cure is stored in. However, he can't remember the combination for the safe. The Marios journey to his memory to search for the missing information. There, a strange creature scans the Mario Bros. and creates doubles to battle them. After the Marios defeat their counterparts, the blue creature reveals that it is the guardian of the second Star Cure. It shows the Marios that the memory of the safe's combination has been damaged. After the Marios repair it, Bowser abruptly remembers the combination as a short poem. When he opens the safe, however, Private Goomp, Sergeant Guy, and Corporal Paraplonk shove him inside and lock the safe, stating that Bowser's reign is over, and that Fawful promised them extra rations for their work. Bowser, angry that this cure got him into this mess, eats the second star cure. The Marios take it from his stomach and escape through the pipe to Toad Town.

Doctor Toadley tells the Marios that the third Star Cure is hidden somewhere at Plack Beach. Journeying there, they discover a new area of the beach that they had never visited before. There they meet Chakron, the owner of the Chakroads that Bowser uses to travel. He tells them that he is the third Star Cure's guardian, and that he would give the bros the last star cure, but he been in that position for so long, that he needs help knocking him over. They engage him in battle, but they can't do anything to knock him over. After Chakron hints that there is a special attack that can help, they go to Dimble Wood, where they search for the Attack Parts for Sweet Basket. After they find six of them, Mario is kidnapped by a Sockop. Luigi gives chase, and in a scene reminiscent of Super Mario Bros. 3, Luigi is trapped inside a Sockop and must use it to traverse a field of thorns to rescue Mario. In the process, Luigi collects the remaining Attack Parts and completes Sweet Basket. Heading back to Chakron, the Marios use this new move to knock him over, and receive the third Star Cure for freeing him and for giving him a new pose.

Mario and Luigi return to Doctor Toadley at the clinic. Taking the three Star Cures in hand, the doctor creates the Miracle Cure, the cure for the blorbs. Toadley yells at it to cure all the toads,and instantly goes flying around the city and curing all those who are ill. Once it is finished, Mario and Luigi take it to the gates of Peach's Castle, where it destroys the barriers put up by the Dark Star.

After wandering the castle gardens for a while, the heroes come upon a huge mound of garbage. As Starlow wonders why it was left there, Midbus comes in and activates a switch, causing the garbage to come to life and form the robotic Junker. After being dealt enough damage by the Mario Bros., it begins to malfunction, running around wildly and freeing Bowser in the process. However, Bowser's long stay in the safe has caused him to have a horrible back pain, so the Marios set about to heal him. Heading through a nearby pipe, the Marios find themselves once more within the Koopa King. After a bit of searching, they come across Toadsworth inside Bowser's shell. He explains that from the shell, another latent ability of Bowser's can be activated. The shock of this is enough to loosen Bowser from his back pain, and he sets off in search of Fawful and the Dark Star.

Bowser finds Fawful and Midbus watching a machine in which Peach and the Dark Star have been restrained. Fawful quickly grants Midbus an ice-based powerup, sending him to attack Bowser. Midbus' defeat causes his entire body to freeze, with cold air slowly being exhaled through his nose. Fawful absorbs the power of the Dark Star and escapes, while the Dark Star itself invades Bowser's Body. Mario and Luigi head to the only remaining unexplored sector of the body to find Dark Star. They catch up to it several times to find it absorbing Bowser's DNA. When it finally reaches a dead end, it confronts the Marios in battle. Although they win, the Dark Star reveals that the DNA it absorbed has allowed it to recreate most of Bowser's body and power for itself. It escapes from Bowser and from the room he's trapped in, which also gives the real Bowser the opportunity to escape.

Bowser finds Fawful in the conference room where he fought Mario earlier. The shadow power absorbed from Dark Star has caused Fawful to transform into Dark Fawful. Bowser fights Dark Fawful and destroys his body, but he survives as a ball of shadow energy. Dark Fawful escapes, but is absorbed by Dark Star. With Fawful's power that he stole, Dark Star completes its transformation into Dark Bowser and escapes through a hidden door.

Bowser finds Dark Bowser on a platform high above Peach's Castle, a knocked out princess at his side. Dark Bowser states his intent to rule the Mushroom Kingdom with an age of darkness, but Bowser replies that the Mushroom Kingdom is his country, and that Dark Bowser can't have it. They begin battling, and Bowser defeats Dark Bowser with ease. However, Dark Fawful revives Dark Bowser, fully healing him and powering him up. Bowser attacks Dark Bowser's Stomach, causing Dark Fawful to be ejected. Bowser quickly inhales Dark Fawful, and a battle begins in his stomach. In a battle somewhat reminiscent of that that they had with his old mistress, the Marios are forced to defeat the individual parts of Fawful's body before attacking his weak point, the Dark Star Core. After a difficult battle, Fawful is defeated, causing Dark Bowser to become unstable. Mocking him all the while, Bowser punches Dark Bowser until he can't take it any more and explodes, freeing the Mushroom Kingdom from the Dark Star's influence forever.

Within Bowser's belly, Fawful speaks to the Mario Bros. and Starlow. The Marios are shocked that he has somehow survived, but without a body or the power of Dark Star to sustain him, Fawful soon is no more, exploding in a cloud of black smoke. The force of the explosion causes Mario, Luigi, and the Toads to be ejected from Bowser's body. The now-conscious Peach, along with various toads, move to congratulate the Marios on a job well done. Bowser is angered, finding out that the Mario Bros. were inside his guts. When Starlow tries to tell Bowser to forget about the past, Bowser recognizes Starlow's voice as Chippy's. Starlow comfirms this, and from this fact, Bowser begins raging at the trio. As they begin what promises to be another epic battle, the credits roll.


Afterwards, Bowser is seen lying in bed at his castle, nursing injuries apparently given to him by Mario and Luigi. Private Goomp, Sergeant Guy, and Corporal Paraplonk are there, apologizing for their treason and asking to rejoin the Koopa Troop. Before Bowser can answer, a messenger from Peach's Castle comes in, delivering a wrapped gift. Out pops Starlow, who was afraid Bowser would attack Peach's Castle again. Bowser says that he wants to finish fixing his castle before doing more evil. Bowser then yells at Starlow, still angry from the truth, making Starlow fly off back to Peach's Castle. Seeing that the three former members of his army are still there, Bowser angrily asks why they aren't helping as well. The three are almost speechless, as this means they're back in the Koopa Troop. They run off, shouting their thanks back to their king. Looking inside Peach's present, Bowser finds it to be a cake with himself, Mario, Luigi, and Peach on it.

In my opinion This is funny I was shocked to see Fawful was back and I thought it was weird that Mario & Luigi were In Boswers Boady most of the time
