Chapter 3: The Situation

Meggy: SMG4?! Tari?!

SMG4: *wakes up* H- Huh?

Tari: *wakes up* Aw... my head...

Meggy: Guys?! Are you OK?!

Tari: M- Meggy?!

SMG4: Oh God! Where's your clothes?!

Meggy: Me and Mario got a bit kinky, last night...

...

SMG4: Thanks for the image...

Tari: Where are we???

Meggy: I don't know... but what I do know is that... we some-how ended up in some sort of rooms full of swimming pools.

SMG4: Christ... we went into our bedroom, then this thing came out of nowhere and knocked us out... and now, we've ended up here.

Tari: Is this a dream?!

SMG4: Let's explore this weird Liminal space.

Meggy: BTW, if we're gonna explore... you'll have to walk through pools because most of this place is flooded.

SMG4: Ah...

Meggy: You might wanna take your shoes off...

Later...

Tari: Anybody here?! Hello?!

SMG4: I have this strange feeling that we're being followed.

Meggy: I've been exploring this weird place by myself for a good... 2 hours. And, I didn't feel like I'm being followed.

SMG4: And, I feel like we're lost... I get scared, very easily!!!

SMG4: AHH!!! CAVE SOUND!!!

*SMACK*

SMG4: Ow...

Meggy: Calm down! These sounds have been playing when I was exploring.

Tari: This place feels like a endless maze...

Then...

???: HELLO?!?!?! ANYBODY HERE?!?!?!

Tari: *gasp* People!!!

Meggy: HELLO?!?!?! IS SOMEONE THERE?!?!?!

???: HELLO?!?!?! WE'RE OVER HERE!!!

SMG4: WHERE-ABOUTS?!?!?! WE'LL COME TO YOU!!!

???: UM... LET'S DO MARCO POLO!!!

SMG4: MARCO!!!

???: POLO!!!

SMG4's group searched for the mysterious voice.

SMG4: MARCO!!!

???: POLO!!!

Tari: I think we're getting close!

Meggy: *gasp* Over there!!! I see them!!!

The group found... Saiko and Kaizo!

Meggy: Saiko?!

Saiko: Guys?! Oh, thank god you're all safe!

Kaizo: Where's that Orange Girl's clothes?!

...

SMG4: Do you know how you got here?!

Kaizo: We were just driving back home and some-how... this creepy face just appeared out of nowhere and got knocked out. And then, when we woke up... we ended up here.

Tari: The same thing happened to us! But, by entering our bedroom.

Saiko: Something weird is happening... we've wondering around this place and I feel like we're exploring a flooded IKEA.

Kaizo: And I feel like my new car is totalled...

Meggy: I wonder where Mario is... I hope my kids are OK!!!

Meanwhile...

Mario: OK Bowser, you need to start spitting facts! If you know why these PNG images are chasing us... then, what the hell are they doing out there?!

Bowser: Come with me, and I'll explain!

Mario: Eh?

Bowser: Just follow me!

Mario: Okay?

Later...

Luigi: What the hell?

Bowser: Welcome to our secret underground bunker. We should be safe in here.

SML Junior: Hey, Mario!

Mario: Hey, everyone.

Luigi: Right! Spill the beans about what's going on!

Bowser: Okie-dokie... The town is being invaded by these PNG's called... Nextbots.

Luigi: Nextbots?

Mario: AHH!!! MICROSOFT IS INVADING THE TOWN WITH XBOX CONSOLES!!!!! 😱😱😱😱😱

*SMACK*

Mario: Ow...

Bowser: As I was saying... about 3 months ago... there was this trend on G-MOD about these bots that chase after you while you're playing G-MOD in the Backrooms. It was fun and scary, at the same time.

Mario: People get scared of PNG images?

Luigi: What kind of Nextbots?

Bowser: These bots include; President Obunga, Angry Munci, Yoshie and Quandale Dingle.

Luigi: How did this trend start?

Bowser: Observe! 👇

https://youtu.be/qDYbcEm6aoM

Luigi: That... is... terrifying!

Bowser: Imagine getting chased by that in the Backrooms...

Luigi: What happens when they get you?

Bowser: In the game, you just die. But, in real-life... you vanish.

SML Junior: They captured my Dad! And, he vanished.

Bowser: At the moment... we just need to figure how these Nextbots manage to get into the real world...

Luigi: This is gonna be one of those days, isn't it?

Bowser: Yep! We're gonna do a risky, rescue mission. And, I need your help! Are you with me?

Luigi: Well... I suppose. Those bots have got our friends!

Bowser: What about you, Mario?

...

Luigi: Mario? Are you even paying attention?

Mario: Sorry! I was distracted by Cody... he's too busy watching that 'Industry Baby' video from Lil Nas X.

Cody: I wish I were dancing in that Shower room.

Joseph: Stop being gay, Cody!!!

...

Mario: What were we talking about?

Luigi: We're gonna save our friends and family!

Mario: But, it's dangerous out there!!!

Bowser: Do you wanna become a Widower?!

Mario: No?

Bowser: Then, let's save our friends!

Mario: Right! Let's go!

Bowser: Hang on! We need to find out where these bots have been taking our friends.

???: BOWSER!!! I GOT AN UPDATE ABOUT THE NEXTBOTS!!!

Bowser: Follow me!

Mario: Okay?

Bowser: What have we got, Goomba 55?

Goomba: I was on a call with Goomba 32 and he just got captured by one of the Nextbots!

Bowser: Okay?

Mario: Hang on! How can you tell that's a 55th Goomba?

Bowser: They have their numbers tattooed on their backs.

Goomba: Anyways, I just recorded the call on my work phone and you need to listen to this.

Goomba played the audio recording.

G. 55: Good morning, you're speaking to Goomba 55. How can I help?

G. 32: Hi, 55! This is 32.

G. 55: Oh! Hi-ya, 32! How are you doing?

G. 32: Listen, can you tell Bowser that I'm gonna be late? There's a flipped over car in the middle of the junction I'm on and it's causing a huge traffic jam.

G. 55: Wait... how come your driving, if you don't have arms?

G. 32: Hang on! There's a weird looking face on the road.

...

G. 32: What the... GET AWAY FROM ME!!! AHH!!!

G. 55: 32?! Are you alright?!

???: *HEAVY BREATHING*

G. 55: I don't know who you are, I don't know what you want! But what I do have... are a very particular set of skills. I will not pursue you, but if you don't, I will look for you, I will find you and I will kill you.

???: Terminal 4.

[HANG UP]

Goomba: I was being Liam Neeson from 'Taken'.

...

Mario: How are you working on a Saturday?

Bowser: Hmm... what does it mean by... Terminal 4?

Luigi: Terminal 4? Could it be... an Airport? Airports have Terminals!

Bowser: That could be a clue! If it is, then... what's so special about a Terminal 4?

Mario: Hang on a minute! Google search to the rescue!

Luigi: What are you doing?

Mario: Saving our family's skins, that's what I'm doing!

Mario googled Terminal 4.

Mario: Hmm... Looks like the 1st thing that came up is... Heathrow Terminal 4.

Bowser: But, the big question is... what's so special about London Heathrow Airport?

Mario: Maybe, they're on their way to the Qatar World Cup!

Luigi: What's the World Cup gotta do with this situation?

Mario: We're departing from Heathrow Airport to Qatar in November! As an Italian myself, I want Football to come home!

That's gonna be a future episode, BTW! 👆

Luigi: Just focus on the mission!

Bowser: What if... that's where the Nextbots base is at?

Luigi: How are we gonna get there? It's gonna be a dangerous journey!

Bowser: Not if we take my Clown car!

Mario: Right! It's agreed! We're off to London Heathrow... 2 months before the World Cup starts!

Bowser: COME ON, ENGLAND!!! IT'S COMING HOME!!!

Luigi: Don't count your Chickens!

*SMACK*

Luigi: Ow!

Mario: Don't upset him! They believe in what they believe!!!

Meanwhile...

Saiko: This is ridiculous... we've been wondering around for like... 15 minutes...

Kaizo: I think we're going round in circles...

Saiko: Nothing but water, everywhere...

SMG4: You know what? My feel are killing, my clothes are wet... let's rest here for a bit.

Meggy: It would be a miracle if we found the whole gang! I bet they might be having a pool party, right about now!

Then...

???: WOO-HOO!!! POOL PARTY!!!

Tari: You were saying?

Meggy: Where is that coming from?

SMG4: Let's follow that voice!

After some-time... SMG4's group found the whole gang... having a pool party?!

Boopkins: SMG4!!! YOU'RE HERE!!!

Everyone: *CHEERING* WOO-HOO!!!

SMG4: What the hell?

Meggy: Bloody hell... thank god that I'm not the only one wearing just a bikini...

Melony: Well, most of us is wearing swim-suits.

...

Saiko: Is that Whimpu over there wearing a swim-suit?! Because if it is... I'm gonna vomit!!!

Whimpu: HELLO, MY QUEEN!!!

Saiko: *sigh*

Whimpu: I'M ABOUT TO DIVE INTO THIS POOL!!!

Saiko: NO ONE CARES!!!

Whimpu: READY?!?!?!

Whimpu jumped.

Whimpu: OUCH!!! THIS MUST BE... THE SHALLOW... END...!!!

Kaizo: Pussy...
