Heat Death/Chapter 1
From Mwuserpedia
Chapter One: A Tale of Two Planets
The universe: a swirling mass of all things assorted. There's no limit at all to the contents of this great, great thing. Lands like Popstar, Hyrule, Raccoon City; they're all housed in our universe. But there's one place... One forgotten place... In the center of it all...
Earth. Once a thriving, bustling, beautiful planet. Once filled with blue waters, soft clouds, and light green grass. Once home to complex humans, industrious ants, and other beautiful creatures. Maybe once. But not now.
Long, long, long ago, Earth supported life. The ignorant, oblivious life it supported was even duped into thinking that they were alone; the only forms of life in our universe. They ignored their neighbors: the Pac-People, the Mobians, the Toads... They thought they were better. They were all fools...
Except for the members of a secret organization known as the MarioWiki. They knew little of other places, but all of them had enough pride to say that they were aware, very aware, of the Mushroom Planet. The MarioWikiers were the only Earthling followers of the graceful planet, and at least they knew what to do when it happened...
Perhaps you've heard of the theory of heat death. The sun is burning out, yes. One day it will be no more, and we will all freeze, they say. Part of a natural plan, no? Yes. This terrible belief of heat death troubled little of the ignoramuses on the planet Earth; and not necessarily due to their foolishness. They planned to come from the dust and go to the snow. They could hardly care of the dastardly provement of the second law of thermodynamics that is heat death.
But the MarioWikiers cared. They cared greatly about their planet and its inhabitants... And they knew just what to do. Retreat.
"Earth is the only planet that can support life," blabbed the scientists. "You'll never be able to find another place. Turn back."
The MarioWikiers didn't listen, and their remaining members are proud of that to this day. They continued to proclaim their belief of an escape from heat death; they told the others that the Mushroom Planet would be an ideal place of residence, but no one cared. They decided to stick with the common beliefs that such an escape was impossible; that no planet could serve life except for their dying one. But the MarioWikiers didn't give up. They tried to convince others to live 'till the very last minute... To no prevail. On that last day...
"Move, move, MOVE!" Porplemontage, leader of the MarioWikiers, commanded his underlings.
"Yes, we must hurry!" stated Wayoshi, the organization's vice president.
They had tried. They tried hard. Very hard... But it didn't work. No one, no one but the MarioWikiers and a few of their parents, had listened. Now they were all climbing on board a ramshackle space pod, one by one. This was surely the last day. The day heat death would be fulfilled. They had tried...
"NO!" cried a voice from the middle of the line. "No, no, NOOOO!" This voice belonged to Koopa lover, a young follower of the ways of MarioWiki.
"What do you mean 'no'?" Porple questioned.
"I.. just... can't leave!" yelled a teary-eyed Koopa lover. "I've lived here all of my life, and... I just can't go! I can't leave and abandoned my friends and family! I--"
"They had their chance," interrupted an all-business Wayoshi. "They chose to stay and freeze; they will stay and freeze."
"Now don't be so cold," said Steve, "not to be perceiving any kind of joke. Let the wikier speak."
"I... I..." Koopa lover didn't quite know what to say. "I suppose you're right. I'll go..."
"Good," said Porplemontage. "Excellent."
"Yes, very good," said Wayoshi. "The users should all be loaded in a few minutes..."
And they were. Soon, even Wayoshi had boarded the escape pod to the Mushroom Planet.
"Come on, Porple," he told, "that's all of them. You can come in now."
Porplemontage had been waiting outside of the pod for quite some time now, hoping that he hadn't forgotten any of his beloved users. "Are you sure?"
"Yes, every MarioWikier's here," Wayoshi said. "I'm your Bureaucrat. You can trust me."
"You're right about that," replied Steve. "Okay then, it looks like I can come on board now!"
"Yes, everyone's here."
With that assurance, Porplemontage began to step up to the boarding slope. At least, be began to, when...
"You forgot me..."
Porplemontage stopped dead in his tracks when he heard this mysterious voice.
"Porple?" Wayoshi asked, worried for his leader.
"You forgot me..." repeated the voice. By now, Porplemontage decided to turn back.
"STEVE!" Wayoshi screamed, "WHAT ARE YOU DOING?! HEAT DEATH IS ABOUT TO BEGIN!!!"
"Where are you?" Steve calmly asked the mysterious voice.
"YOU FORGOT ME!" the voice screamed once again, resulting in the appearance of a mysterious, cloaked figure.
"What are you doing, Porple?!" a concerned Wayoshi, who seemed to be unable to see the "forgotten one", yelled to his leader.
"Um..." Porplemontage was beginning to think that the creature he was after wasn't worth saving.
"Get on board!" Wayoshi, beginning to step off of the pod, commanded.
"Oka--" Steve was cut off by the cloaked figure pulling out a huge dagger.
"Don't forget me..." it almost sang.
Porplemontage was frozen with fear. He didn't know who the cloaked one was. It could've been a MarioWikier, but it was certainly a very cruel and sadistic one. "Who... are you?"
Steve's question was answered with the creature's action of pulling the hood of his cloak off. "NO!" Steve screamed, "NOT YOU! NOT YO--"
He was interrupted by the character throwing his dagger directly at him. Steve managed to avoid it, but not without being pinned to the ground by the figure himself.
"What's going on?!" a confused Wayoshi screamed.
"FORGET ABOUT ME!" Steve commanded. "JUST GET THE POD OUT OF HERE! BEGIN THE COLONY... and..."
"What? What?"
"...remember me..."
