Tari x Reader

In the Final (Part 3)

(This is a refrence to the song that plays in the back of the fight.)

When you all crash into the hall you're stoped by the reanimated faceless Mario bodies.

"What the hell is this?" Luigi asks.

"Well this is unnerving." You mutter.

"Everyone out!" The yellow one orders. Bob goes first and gets stuck and everyone pushes on him.

"Stupid hitboxes." You say getting a running start and popping him out like a cork and all of you pick yourselves off the floor. As the two shrimps go to stop Zero they are blocked. They start to move but Melony shows just why you shouldn't piss her off.

Luigi nods at Saiko and gears up to a very familiar looking maneuver to Tari. The shrimps run up as you and the crew keep the path as clear as possible.

You see Axol get overwhelmed to be saved by his crush. And she hugged him!

"Aww... Baby steps." You say smiling and without looking backhand a clone.

From bob to bowser you all used very interesting ways to take on the horde.

If you had to rank the most creative, bowser hands down. He spun on his back and bowled through hundreds.
The cutest? Tari, duh.
The most painful? Boopkins somehow... set fire to a clone using the dakimakura he had earlier yelling "The power of christ compels you!"
The most lethal? Shroomy, don't ever get caught in his sights.
The most out of the blue? Bob and Boopkins with beatboxing skills, rap would be pushing it. And while the duo were doing their thing you gave the shrimps a bit of a boost to get the added momentum to land a clean shot against Zero but not before they dropped a bombshell on the whole crew.

"I'm SMG1!" The blue one said

"And I'm SMG2!" The yellow one said.

"WHAT?! YOU CAN'T JUST DROP A BOMB LIKE THAT!?" You and SMG4 yell as they fly towards Zero. They tell you to find their guardian pod as the final blow was hit.

And it worked with explosive effects, at least until it slowed down. Your eyes widened as you realized it was gonna implode. You ran and thankfully grabbed the altar of the sacrifices but in an unexpected turn you were hit with a piece of the rafters and knocked unconscious. When everyone was sounding off after having checked on Mario Tari noticed you weren't with them.

"Where's Y/n?!" She asked hysterically until she spotted you under the beam. She rushed over and pushed the beam off by herself causing everyone to freeze again. Tari looked you over and tried to shake you awake and when that didn't seem to work she broke down and cried.

"Y/n! I love you please don't leave me!" She cried out then into your chest as she felt your heartbeat pick back up.

"Ugh, anyone get the number on the truck that hit me?" You groan out as you look at the distraught Tari. You kiss her and it takes a few seconds but she kissed back with a few tears streaming down her face.

"You finally said it aloud." You say cupping her cheek. She looked confused.

"Huh?" She asked you not really keeping track of what she said.

"You said you loved me louder than a whisper in public." You say softly wiping a few leftover tears. Her eyes widened then she looked down.

"I-I love you, I love you. I LOVE YOU Y/n!" She said normally then with a bit of giddiness then she proclaimed it to the world while hugging you.

"The gangs all here!" Boopkins announced once everyone was accounted for.

Meanwhile in Pourt Aroura:

In Auris house Meggy and Fr/n look around the room.

"Huh I feel like I'm being left out of something." They both say.

Back in the dark web

You all couldn't celebrate long as the pod glowed. You did feel uneasy but it went away when the recolors were properly reanimated. Soon everyone was in the recolors village making sure that they had a proper headcount while you Mario and SMG4 were talking with X and FM.

"Well that was some 10 year anniversary party you threw there old friend." They said.

"Well I think we can-" you begin before getting cut off by Saiko about the corrupted memes.

"Hey X FM you wanna help me out for old times sake?" SMG4 asked to which they smiled and nodded.

As you head back to the castle you watch the magic of the Meme Machine™. Then you see the uncorrupted memes head back to the internet graveyard with their "dad" SMG3 complimenting SMG4.

Once the sun starts to set you're all on the roof of the castle Tari cuddling up to you as you all talk about what happened and what will happen in the coming adventures. And SMG4 gets all sentimental at a wall, again.

"He's really gotta stop that, there's no camera that way." Tari whispered.

"I mean he should but it's turning into a awkward running gag at this point." You say resting your head on hers making her flush a bit.

Heavy squid laughs and says his catchphrase as things seem well.
