Mario had come so far, just an average plumber risking his life for the woman he loved. Or should have loved, as Mario looked into Peach's scared eyes he knew he'd lied to her, and to himself. But he had to save her now, didn't he? She held the iron bars of her cage and continued to stare at him, her eyes flitting back between Mario and the lever. The lever. He had to pull the lever, killing the only man he'd ever truly loved to save the woman he had to love. He'd tried to ignore it, but the man who was supposed to be his worst enemy made Mario's cheeks heat up with those smirks he flashed. And he was killing him now, leaving the truth behind for the lies of Peach's love. Mario's gloved hand wrapped around the lever, Bowser behind him, rage twisting his handsome face. His hands felt detached from his mind, as they pulled the lever down with force. The ground disappeared from under Bowser. His love, tumbling into the lava, the shock registering on his beautiful face as he stared into Mario's eyes. Mario had never seen Bowser scared before, but in that moment his expression changed to despair, and a tear fell from his wide green eyes. He didn't want to die, and Mario didn't want to kill him either. He knew what he had to do, and he gulped in the dry castle air and ran towards the edge of the cliff. Looking down into the lava, his mind swam with possibilities but he pushed them aside. He could make it. He could save Bowser. "M-m-m-mario? What are you doing?" Bowser's cheekbones were more defined in the orange glow of the lava and he outstretched his hand towards the surface. The tired plumber reached towards his true love, and their hands intertwined. "You're safe. Itsa me, Mario."
