Mario And Meggy's Dream Adventure

Mario And The Lullaby

It was a quiet night, with everyone sleeping in peace except Meggy. Meggy's screams can be heard all over the castle.

Meggy was inside her room, tossing and turning roughly all huddled up in her covers like a kitten as horrible memories of what happened a couple of months ago appeared in her mind.

The memories played as Meggy screamed and shaked. Including memories of her getting put in the "Ink Zuccer 3000" and Desti getting stabbed through her chest.

Desti's haunting and chilling final words echoing in Meggy's subconscious.

(In dream Desti): You better win Splatfest for me, okay?

Meggy: DESTI!!!!!!! NO!!!!!!!

Meggy was twisting and thrashing about, alerting the others. As they heard Meggy's thrashing and screaming from the walls.

Meggy's cries are heard by Tari, Tari rushes into Meggy's room and sees her trembling and shaking.

Meggy: NO! PLEASE! HELP!

Tari rushes up and shakes her gently of course to no avail.

Tari: Meggy... You're ok.... You're not back there anymore...

She rushes to the others who are watching a movie and was about to tell them but Meggy's scream spoke for her and everyone rushes to her room.

Smg4 and the others come in, and Mario is suddenly shocked by the trembling girl in front of him.

Smg4: Dear God! Meggy?!

Mario: Oh my God! Meggy!

Mario runs up to Meggy places a hand on her side to gently wake her.

Mario: Meggy darling... It's ok...
You're just dreaming... It's not real...

Tari says she's already tried, but Smg4 comments that Tari was just too quiet.

Meggy flinches and tenses up at him, Mario questions why she tensed up on him but finds out his answer.

As Meggy mumbles that Francis was touching her, as she was telling Mario (or who she thought was Francis) to get their hands off of her.

Meggy: No! Get your hands off of me you bastard!

Mario: What the?!

Mario was scared, so he gently reassured Meggy that he wasn't the evil lizard bitch. Refraining from using his name.

Smg4 walks up to Meggy and tells her the same thing, but she only screams louder as she shakes more violently.

Cause in her dream she's getting sucked of her ink as the pain comes back, the stabbing, electrocuting, sickening pain that she relives returns to haunt her.

Meggy: MARIO! TARI! ANYBODY! HELP!!!!!!!!!!!!!
AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!

Mario pets Meggy's hair and rushes away, Luigi wondering what's going on. Thinking that Mario abandoned them. Meanwhile Saiko was trying to calm her but to no avail.

Saiko: You're ok Meggy... It's just a dream... You're not back on Anime Island... You're not in the Ink Zuccer 3000... You're safe with us in the Mushroom Kingdom.

Mario rushes back in with a music box his mom gave when they were little, he remembers him and Luigi as babies with the music box.

Mario fades back at Meggy's scream and winds the music box, revealing a tiny piranha plant in a pipe that goes up and down.

Mario climbs into bed with Meggy as she flinches, Mario puts his hand on Meggy's cheek and strokes it.
Meggy leans into his touch, then backs away frightened.
