Chapter 2:

Kata Energy!

The Basics of Shadow and Luminate!

A massive floating Island with waterfalls flowing from each side of the large rocky mass that a large castle sat upon sat far above the clouds over the center of the entire Pangea Kingdom. Inside this castle were the 5 leaders of Pangea, Mario, and Peach of the Mushroom Kingdom, Luigi and Daisy of the Sarasaland Kingdom, T. of the Yoshi Kingdom, Donkey Kong of the Kongo Bongo Kingdom, and Bowser Jr. representing the King of the Koopa Kingdom. The leaders were all sitting around a round table with a holographic screen in the middle showing a map of the entire kingdom. The room they were in was large and had white detailed pillars on each side of the room which was dimly lit. Mario began the meeting,

"First and Foremost I'd like to thank you all for coming, as you know Bowser has been in sensory-deprived solitary confinement for the last two decades or so, and while the prison he's held in at the heart of Pangea is still going strong, there are some speculations going around about how Bowser may be planning an escape, as of now there doesn't seem to be any possibility of this but since we've had twenty years of solid peace it doesn't feel unnecessary to take precautions." Mario explained in a calm and fashioned tone.

"Precautions? Just what sort of precautions are you recommending Mario?" Donkey Kong asked, almost interrogating Mario. The others sat still in silence, all of them having keen ideas of what Mario was soon to propose.

"We dispose of Bowser," Mario said powerfully. Both D.K's and Jr.'s eyes widened in shock. However, Luigi and T. kept cool composure. "Jr, I understand if you don't want to-" Mario was interrupted by Jr.

"No, I second the motion...He needs to die after what he's done." Despite Jr.'s apparent resolve he still felt conflicted, he was Jr.'s father after all.

"You should've suggested such a motion sooner Mario, that you've waited this long shows your lack of responsibility as a leader, and even more so as a father. Bringing a child into this world right upon the soil above that monster's head." T. said crudely.

"You speak so powerfully yet as it stands you've done the least as a leader and a protector, isn't that right T. Yoshisaur?" Donkey Kond interjected. T. Scoffed and grunted at D.K's words.

"You know nothing you Arrogant ape!"

"Enough!" Mario exclaimed, slamming his fist upon the table. "T. it's not as simple as killing Bowser, he still has followers and we've yet to see any sign of Kamek whom we know is capable of bringing the dead back to life," Mario exclaimed calming himself down. "And even besides that, Bowser is still a dangerous being, who knows what could happen if we release the sensory deprivation seal on him to kill him," Luigi added. Daisy scoffed before saying,

"This whole meeting is futile, Killing bowser's pointless no matter how you look at it, if he escapes, we lock him back up, easy as that." She explained.

"Daisy don't be so foolish," Peach responded in as determined of a tone as she could muster with her light voice.

"She's right Honey." Luigi said, "Allowing even the slightest possibility of Bowser being released can have cataclysmic results."

"If I may." Suddenly, the sound of a cane stomping upon the marble floor of the kingdom as an old toad with a semi-long white beard walked into the room having full clearance by the two toad soldiers standing watch at the door.

"Toadsworth, you're late," Mario said. The old toad took a seat next to T. and Luigi.

"Now, There are positives and negatives to all of your ideas, and that seems to be obvious in the current situation but If I may suggest that instead of killing, releasing, or leaving Bowser the way he is, why not add some more protection to his seal, that or transfer him to a more secure area, but as it stands now I doubt there is such a place," Toadworth suggested.
