I watched my brothers body lay limp in Bowsers arms. I saw tears streaming down his face, his shallow breathing seemed to be going at an increased rate. I cannot even begin to imagine how frustrated he must be. To be rendered completely useless. Only to be able to watch and listen from the sidelines. Not to mention he went to go after Peach.... I wonder if she attacked him as well breaking his heart and letting that monster snatch his soul. Or, is Peach also held against her will by this creature. Whoever he is, he seems to be pulling all the Royal strings. All except for the Koopas, I guess he thought spoiling the reputation of this kingdom would be enough to where he did not need to implement control. Or maybe he's just scared of a powerful magic user like Kamek being able to defeat him alongside the brute strength of Bowser and even Breaths skill and combat prowess. No wonder he tried to split them all up.
"Hurry, open the door his breathing is only getting faster." Bowser calls out to Sable and Cane who quickly obliged. "He should still be able to hear you. You need to try your best to calm him down !" I nod following him into my room and watch him gently lay Mario's Body down. I can't help it, I start crying thinking about everything again. I didn't even bother looking up at him.
"D...do you think I can have time alone with my brother. I'll try and come find you when I'm done." I try my best to maintain the strength in my voice so he doesn't find out about my tears. I could really use a hug right now but I don't even know if I want one from him. Besides, I honestly don't know if seeing any display of affection between Bowser and I will cause a negative reaction to Mario in this state.
"Yeah, I'll leave you too it then. If you need me, just call for Sable. He'll come get me for you." I think he also got the hint to not touch me right now, either he can read me well or he's a bit nervous in-front of my big brother. Even if he can't move at the moment.
"Thank you." And with that he gave me one last worried glance between closing the door and slowly leaving. I take a deep breath before turning over to Mario. "Hey Bub..... I've missed you a lot while you were away." I mutter out softly. I climb onto the bed laying next to him staring at the ceiling. Already, with me laying next to him he seems to have calmed down a bit. His once rapid heart seemed to slow as it felt my presence. Even his breathing.... they were so fast and shallow. Just now I saw him take a solid deep breath. That makes me feel a lot better. "I was so worried. I wanted to go after you myself but nobody would allow it. I'm just so glad Breath was able to get you back safely." I say looking up at the roof listening to his breathing. It gets a bit shaky, I look over to see tears streaming down his face. So he can hear me ! Mario, I can only imagine your frustration right now. I turn to my side and give him a hug. It's the only thing I could think to do. I'm trying my best to stay strong for him. He was always strong for me when I couldn't be. Now look at me, holding back tears as I try my best to comfort him. Stay strong, you have to stay strong for him. "Don't worry, I promise I'll fix this."
