Super Mario Bros. 2 - Across the Galaxy

Chapter 15: So You Think You Can Pivonka?

Captain Syrup walked over to the heroes and chortled. "You have some nerve coming to face me!" her Irish accent was getting on Daisy's nerves. "You like the place? I built it after my pops left his treasure in his will."

"What are you doing on a cold planet?" Peach asked.

"I needed to go somewhere different from the warm weather of Starshine Beach Galaxy, so why not an ice galaxy?" Syrup then looked at Atlas. "I mean, Rosie here broke up with me so she could take care of her little brat over there."

"Hey!" Rosalina said. "My children are blessings."

"Oh, yeah, I keep forgetting about all your little Lumas. How are they?"

"Good."

Syrup then scowled. "So, what are ya doin' here, Rosie?"

Rosalina sighed and put away her wand. "Look, Maple, we're looking for the Chaos Emeralds and we have almost all of them. We need directions to find the turquoise Emerald. We need your father's map."

The pirate scoffed and walked to the stage of the building. "You ain't getting my pop's map, since I don't trust you anymore. 

"Please, Maple..."

"I never told you what I did for this place, did I? I'm a bartender, manager, and also the stage singer of this here establishment." a man gave Syrup a red cloak and she turned to Rosalina. "So, sit back, and figure out what THIS song's about."

(Stronger Than I Ever Was by Mary J. Blige)

Syrup then put on the hood of the cloak and walked to the mansion stage. She then took off the cloak to reveal her boxing gloves. She then sneered at Rosalina and sang,

Do I look like I need ya?

Super deluxe, new improved

Better shape, better off

Stronger than I ever was

Whispers tell a lie

Starts a rumor, makes you cry

It's out there poster-sized

It's no secret you're no prize

I'd never ever take you back

I'd walk on fire and broken glass

Is this the time?

I'm here to stay

I never really liked you

I never really liked you anyway

No, no, never

No, no, never

Just remember, little lady

The best I had are finally staying

You're so down, I'm so up

Stronger than I ever was

I turn you on, I turn your off

Let's get nothing I don't love?

You got nothing that I need

Losing you has set me free, yeah

I'd never ever take your back

I'd walk on fire and broken glass

This is the time, I'm here to stay
