Super Mario: Warper Genesis
[Recap] [This takes after the events of the Three Tales of the Rickspark, specifically the Plus One chapter.]
During the events of A Fourth Shot of Rick and Morty and A Blackthorn's Rhapsody (which, you should read both of them to get the storyline either way), Elite Council Katsumi Blackthorn the Second and her cousin, Genevieve the Second, escaped the wrath of Pinkamena alongside fellow Elite Councilmember, Jeremy Kris, and the new allies of Dimenito and his friends. With Gilda von Gyra now in the Elite Council, Jeremy's plan to get through all this with his balls intact was slowly in motion. Now, our "heroes" on their way to Dimenito's home dimension, the mysterious version of the ever-famed Super Mario World, SM-U256. Now, we bring you Super Mario: Warper Genesis.
Dimentio growled over his comm and video unit with Zone-Tan and Katsumi, as he said "Why the FUCK is there a 9th Level Warper in the form of Pinkamena!?", his amber-yellow eye turning an icy blue, with an icy blue flame coming from it, as the eye of his mask turned black, with a ring of gray showing, with an even smaller ring of white showing in the ring of gray, acting as his eye's pupil.
Zone-Tan and Katsumi stepped back slightly, surprised by this, before Zone-Tan said "How the fuck are we supposed to know!? We know just as much as you do, Dimentio!", with Katsumi nodding in agreement, but, that didn't do anything to calm Dimentio down.
Dimentio's body became icy, as if he were made of ice, the area around him freezing over slightly, before he noticed what he was doing and stopped, taking deep breaths, recollecting himself, but, his right eye was still an icy blue, with the flame still there, but not as much.
He then sighed and said "Zone-Tan, can you get in touch with Darkris, maybe ask him to lend a few of his ships to act as scouts to keep an eye out for Pinkamena, Dimensio, and Evil Morty?", making Zone-Tan nod and say "I'll see what I can do. Zone, out.", before she got off the comm and video unit, leaving Dimentio and Katsumi.
Dimentio sighed and said "I need to make a call with a friend of mine...", only for Katsumi to say "Not yet. You still have a lot to explain if we're to work together, Dimentio."
Dimentio rolled his eyes and said "And what do you want to know?", making Katsumi say "Your alignment seems to be the biggest thing I want to know. I know you're not evil, but whether you are neutral or good is another thing entirely. And also if you plan to follow the rules."
Dimentio smirked and said "I'd say I'm a Chaotic Good... but, I'd like to make something clear, Katsumi.", making her raise an eyebrow, to which he continued, saying "I will NOT follow the Order's Law of Neutrality, nor will I be following any of its rules... except for the rule about the 34 Universe. I think we can both agree on that. But anyway, almost all the rules of the Order just limit what I can do. You want me to fight and help you track down Dimensio and Black Rose, that's fine. But there's not a snowball's chance in hell that I'll be following the Order's Rules. Same goes for Jeremy, Katsumi."
He then sighed and said, pinching the bridge of his nose, "Besides, the Law of Neutrality can no longer work. The Order was broken into by my brother and his partners. They have plans to bring back Elvin as a robot based on T.M.S.'s own body. Hell, Rebecca came back from the dead as a robot! If this is happening, there cannot be any more neutrality. We both need to act, fast."
Jeremy seemed to get some nerve and glared at Dimentio much to his surprise.
"If you want to blame anyone for this mess, blame me. The Order is not the problem, it's the people that ran it. It's my fault for being aloof and letting Rebecca run wild. She convinced me that spying on the Power clan was a good idea, but it backfired. I let her slap unfair bounties! She put an automatic million dollar bounty on every single Blackthorn child born to Akira and Kaneda, and I was too stuck up my own ass to see how messed up that was. She even murdered most of my old team behind my back and ruined the lives of two of them! Their blood on my hands...so if you want to bash anyone, let it be me!" Jeremy said in a tirade.
Dimentio glared back, but Jeremy returned it full force.
"But know this, I will not make the same mistake twice. Not with Rebecca and not with you. You will follow the rules because not doing so will only lead to going down that slippery slope. It is time, I rightly upheld by job and make the multiverse a better, but neutral place." Jeremy said standing firm.
Dimentio could see the fire and determination in the councilman's eyes almost like he grew a second head. Dimentio could only sigh and begrudgingly say yes.
Katsumi sighed, after Dimentio was done, and said "We'll be merging our ships in due time.", to which Dimentio nods and says "Thank you. Dimentio, out.", as he got off the comm and video unit, before walking off...
Katsumi had walked over to the controls for her ship, the Edge of Spirit. The ship was a compact sized vessel taking elements from the likes of Futurama's Planet Express Ship albeit with a new black coloring. It used to be white, but Katsumi had it repainted to signal her return to her clan. Genevieve II (who will be referred to an Evie from now on) and Jeremy were keeping an eye on the ship's spirit.
"I can't believe you elected Gilda for the Elite Council to justify you staying with us." Katsumi said sharply to Jeremy. "While she is well qualified to aid us, I still think it was cheap of you to do."
Jeremy said nothing not wanting to speak.
"With Merch out of the game for a bit, we'll have to use our BlackTabs more for supplies." Evie said concerned.
"Still, I'm more scared at the fact of Merch training. I've only heard rumors…that he was horrifying strong when he fought with your family." Jeremy remarked.
"And they're true. Uncle Merch can and could fight just as hard, but he's not a blood knight like most others." Katsumi said. "He is vicious in battle if you dare harm the people he cares about."
"Everyone is." Jeremy said with a sigh.
"We're entering the area of space Dimentio said was his home. From what the Blackthorn and ship's supercomputers are gathering, place has a few warpers there. All pretty strong. To compare on average, on par with my older brother's Crystal Squadron. And they are all unregistered." Evie said as Katsumi growled.
"Damn it, Dimentio! If the public finds out about that, they'll think I'm hiding some kind of army!" Katsumi said frantic.
Jeremy was admittingly mulling over the irony that when Rebecca tried to pull wool over warper's eyes that she was able to lie better. Katsumi decided to go for a bit of plan setting her ship's supercomputer and her BlackTab to gather the necessary information and form a file and bounty post haste. It was at the moment, that her and Zone-Tan's ship docks at the Frostbite to allow her to gather in the hall of the Frostbite.
"Dimentio, when were you going to tell me you had warpers on your world?" Katsumi said with a steeled glare.
Dimentio frowned, but Katsumi told her she will be gathering the needed information for them either way.
"Alright, Katsumi, if we're going to work together and stay the fuck away from Pinkamena, we're going to need to find someplace to work together and hide from Pinkamena. Thankfully, I know just the place."
"And I see, you've kept yourself hidden for so long." Katsumi said. "I'll commend you for it. Few warpers can accomplish that. Hell, Ace is up there on warpers few can find."
Eventually, the Frostbite stopped, making Zone-Tan, Katsumi, Evie, and Jeremy stop, before Dimentio said "Katsumi, welcome to my home."... in front of them was a massive universe, a Mario Universe... however, before they could enter, a voice suddenly appeared from the comm unit, being loud and deep, obviously male, as the voice said, "Stop right there!"
Suddenly, a large ship slowly came into view... the ship was a ghostly, ice blue, and looked very similar to that of a pirate ship, with its snow white sails. The ship slowly came towards them, before stopping. The voice then spoke again, saying "What's the password?"
Dimentio smirked and said "September 20th, 3:40 PM, Sunny, Few Clouds", making the voice sigh in relief and say "Thank god it's you, Dimentio. I assume the extra ship and Zone-Tan are with you?"
"Yeah. The other ship is Katsumi Blackthorn the Second's. She's from the Kaneda side." Dimentio said, making the voice say "Kaneda? Dear Grambi... alright, head on in."
"I get my father was a piece of shit, but I'm right here. Either way, pleased to meet you, Bowser." Katsumi said with her sharp wit.
Dimentio then smiled and said "That was the plan. I'll see you on the ground, Bowser.", as the voice, Bowser, then said "Same to you.", before he left the comm unit. Dimentio then spoke again and said "Katsumi, Zone-Tan, get ready. We're entering my Universe."
The two nodded, before Dimentio flew the Frostbite into the Universe. SM-U256 reminded Jeremy a lot of a version where the Powers family made their home. The Mushroom World's setup was similar to the Mushroom World that the Powers clan had dominated. SM-U256 was more of a mix-mash of Nintendo worlds with the Mushroom World as base.
"Incredible." Jeremy remarked looking down on the planet. "Looks close to the Powers family' version yet so different. There's even a displaced kingdom in Sea Side just like Tempus."
"I'm taking us down to Toad Town…well at this point, might as well be called Toadopolis." Dimentio said directing Frostbite downwards. "I trust you, Katsumi, but not enough to take you to my front doorstep."
"Fair enough." Katsumi said with crossed arms. "You're not helping to consider the fact that you have unregistered warper allies you did not inform me of. I won't be chiding you for it because I'm already working to fix that."
Dimentio rolled his eyes and everyone went to their respective rooms on their vessels. Zone-Tan, T.M.S, Katsumi, Evie, and Jeremy were cleaning themselves up and changing.
Jeremy donned his rarely used battle wear that he kept from his old Time Patrol days that he had modified over time. The outfit consisted of a white and golden armor held up by two straps, under the armor was a black turtleneck, gi-styled pants that are light gray, gold bracelets styled after the Bracelets of Submission, and white boots. There was also a white cape pinned to the shoulder guards with the insignia for the Order of Reality. Jeremy slipped on his white gloves and looked into the mirror. His once spiked blood red hair was a faded carmine. His light gray eyes look weary.
"Let's hope I do get out of this intact." Jeremy said before leaving to get his weapons.
Evie had chosen to wear one of her personal favorite as it was a replica of her what her mother would wear on occasions with some slight differences. A black blazer had a blue flame pattern along the bottom and on the edge of the right sleeve, a blue karate gi top with no sleeves, baggy black pants with an obi tied around it, and blue boots. Evie had worn her black hair down to her shoulders. Like her mother, she gained the ability to shift her eye color to whatever she desired. In a sense, her brothers had done so at birth but as they got became toddlers, they unknowingly settled on a color for good. She ultimately decided to go for having silver eyes like her father and uncle. The eye color always did scream warrior. She applied a light side of rose lipstick.
"It's time to dive into another edge of the 'verse." Evie said clipping her BlackTab to her right side.
Katsumi looked into the mirror with her dark brown spheres reflecting in the glass. Much to her continued mixed feeling, she resembled her mother having her blonde hair. She chuckled as her mother's hair used to be dark until she merely used Warper Edit to alter her color to blonde shortly after Ryo's birth. So, Katsumi inherited her blonde hair later down the line. Katsumi sighed at the thought of her as she really was not really someone she could call her. To describe Katsumi the First, think Jessie Maye, except if she was married, more of a slacker, and Japanese. Katsumi did not completely hate her mother unlike her oldest brother, but she did dislike her for not really raising them. She was there, but only to push her brothers to become as independent as quickly as possible.
"Enough mulling over her." Katsumi thought before getting dressed.
She got on her own outfit which consisted of a black and purple Supreme Kai-style coat, a dark purple long-sleeved turtleneck undershirt, a light purple blue sash, dark purple baggy pants, and black boots. On her right side of chest, was the Blackthorn family crest with the Nazo symbol intermixed with it. Like Jeremy, there was a white cape pinned to the shoulders with the Order of Reality's symbol on it. She slipped on her green and white Potara earrings that were ironically a gift from her mother. She looked to the stick of blue colored lipstick that Evie gave her and decided to apply some around her lips. She could remember when her mother taught how to put on makeup. Her mother always did care for her slightly better than her brothers wanting to make a mini her which was why she was named after her. If anything, Katsumi the Second wanted to be anything other than her mother.
"Time to do my duty." Katsumi said clipping her BlackTab to her left side.
Turbo Mecha Sonic had ended up wearing an armor spawned by Katsumi consisted a grey jumpsuit with black and gold samurai style armor plating around the torso that was made of Nth metal.
"Katsumi, you got style." T.M.S. said posing in the armor.
It even had with a samurai helmet and boots.
Zone-Tan had put on a pair of black shorts and matching tank top under a purple track jacket with her skull insignia on the back. Putting the skull hairclip in hair, she quickly got a pair of purple ninja sandals.
"Hope the kingdom hasn't changed much." Zone-Tan said
As the ships came down landing on the port for spacecrafts outside of Toad Town right near Pleasant Path. Dimentio had changed into a semi-formal three-piece suit with weighted boots with his usual mask. Mimi followed his example with a skirt suit with leggings under the skirt and weighted boots. Wander was hurriedly making himself presentable to Hater's annoyance. Peppers and Sylvia were secretly betting Hater was going to screw something up. As the ships' hatches opened, the eleven (twice counting Shadoo) came down from them.
"Whoa, that's some fancy duds you got, Katsumi." Wander said with his usual glee.
"Thanks. It's actually a new outfit I've been wanting to put together for some time. It's what I want to wear while I'm on duty. The robes I feel are more for diplomacy events." Katsumi said as the cape flowing.
"I see someone agrees." Jeremy said respectfully.
"Well, I think you look fearsome." Zone-Tan said as Mushroom Guards.
Katsumi and Evie noted they were still Toads, but unlike the games, they are well-more equipped. It's obvious that their Bowser would probably have a higher time getting to the princess. Leading the charge was Princess Peach alongside her beloved husband, Mario.
"I see you are pulling the welcome wagon, Peach-hime." Jeremy said as the Guard took aim.
"Enough of this." Katsumi said calmly. "I doubt you'll want to shoot down a member of the Elite Council for the Order."
The guards put down their weapons as a subtle wave for Katsumi's will seeped out. Mario and Peach took their glances on her.
"So, I'm curious why are two of the illustrious Elite Council is doing here on my kingdom?" Peach said sternly and sarcastically. "I didn't think I asked for spoiled filth."
"Peach, don't insult the 10th level warper. Secondly, the Council had a change in membership." Dimentio said coming up to whisper about the events of what happens to so forth.
Once hearing the explanation, her expression did a 180 considering Katsumi. She got a warm welcome from Peach, but Jeremy still got a blank and cold stare.
"I'm sorry for insulting you, Miss Blackthorn." Peach said earnestly.
"It's no big deal. I'm trying to do better than Rebecca did, and Jeremy is as well." Katsumi said trying to save Jeremy's reputation.
"Yeesh, the warper energy off those Blackthorns are like the rumors say they are, huge." Mario remarked.
"I suppose I should introduce myself, Genevieve V. Blackthorn II, call me Evie." Evie said warmly.
"So, let me get straight, you are essentially under employ of the Order." Peach said turning her attention to Dimentio.
"Legally, yes, but my tie is to Katsumi. She has a decent head on her shoulders and wants to work on dealing with the incoming threats aside from Dimensio." Dimentio explained.
"We need to call a meeting to explain the situation, right now. It's a long story." Mimi urged.
Princess Peach was weary over the Order's Councilmembers being here, but swallowed that thought down. A meeting was declared as they had work to do.
(A/N: Thank Discplacer for this too. He had written the opening scene and omake which I incorporated, altered, and edited to make this pilot. This story unlike most others will be a bit more exploration on recapping past events, planning, and development. You'll really have to do your reading for past series. This serves as my final gift to you all in the form of a new project.)
