Chapter 5:
Jr. Resigns!
A Battle Between Siblings!
In the Mushroom Castle, the throne room, Mario sat in one of the two thrones holding his hands, collapsed, brushing up against his mouth and mustache.
"I'm sure you understand, I'm simply not cut out for the whole teacher thing. It was fun while it lasted but it's just not for me." Jr. said standing before Mario.
"*Sigh* It's sad to hear Jr. The students all think of you as a positive role model. But I suppose if that's what you truly desire I suppose there is someone I can replace you with." Mario responded. Jr. Bowed in respect.
"Thank you, King Mario." He said before beginning to walk out of the room.
"But wait Jr." Mario stopped him.
"This doesn't have anything to do with what happened ten years ago does it? Because I can assure you you're not him." He said. Jr. hesitated.
"No...It's got nothing to do with that." He responded before leaving the room.
At Mushroom Academy U. M.J sat in a classroom with his fellow students as the teacher was speaking. He was fidgeting with a pencil and was leaning his head on his fist.
"Come ooooon. When is the fun class gonna start? I wanna try to fight Jr. Again." M.J complained.
"Didn't you hear?" Rose said, "Apparently Jr. Resigned." M.J's eyes widened.
"What!?" He exclaimed loudly in the silent class causing the entire class to turn around and stare at him. Even the teacher stopped speaking and stared.
"Uhh hehe...sorry." He said slouching in his chair to appear smaller.
"Rose, are you sure? Where did you hear that from anyways?" Kyoshi whispered.
"I heard my mom and dad talking about it last night." She spoke.
"But why would he?" Kyoshi thought.
"Doesn't matter. As soon as this class is over I'm rushing over to him and beating the crap outta that quitter!" M.J exclaimed.
"M.J if you could please quiet down until class ends-" DDDDDING! DDDDDDING! The Bell rang, interrupting the teacher as the students wasted no time pouring out of the door to leave the room. M.J immediately dashed for the Exit.
Meanwhile, Jr. was walking down the street.
"Oahh, everything is such a bore. I can't even get a decent job nowadays. Too bad bein' a hero doesn't pay too much."
"JR!" M.J yelled dashing down the street towards Jr.
"Eh!?" Jr. exclaimed.
"Fire Technique: Fireball!" M.J yelled as a blast of flames formed in his hand, He chucked the ball of flames at Jr. who stood still and unfazed by the attack. The fireball somehow disappeared when it got close to Jr.
"Tch! Huaaaaah!" M.J exclaimed, dashing at Jr. and jumping in the air with his fist ready to punch Jr. He thrust his fist at Jr. who burst into flames as soon as M.J made contact. He stumbled on the ground before hopping right back up to his feet, looking around for Jr. who was nowhere to be found. Suddenly, Jr. appeared before M.J and used his leg to sweep M.J off his feet and then stomp on his chest as he looked down on him with his hands in his pockets.
"Fire Technique: Flameport. It allows me to take the form of fire, disappear, and reappear wherever and whenever I choose. Every element has a similar technique but it's pretty complicated to figure out." Jr. explained.
