Description
CrystalPhoenixBlader here, bringing in another chapter to the fanfic! The Glamour arc is going off well, but now that Wendy O. Koopa has arrived in a rage, the battle with her cannot be avoided! Also, if anyone has any ideas for any more Mario-based locales to use for future arcs before the planned finale, I open to any suggestions! Oh, and anything from Yoshi, WarioWare, and Donkey Kong will be included. Otherwise, I will just think up another arc on my own! Anyways, I don’t own any of the Mario characters or the iDOLMASTER characters; the Mario characters belong to Nintendo and the iDOLMASTER charcters belong to Namco Bandai! So with that aside, let’s get the spotlight back on the action!
**Mario & iDOLMASTER Party**
Chapter 14
Koopa Dance off! Haruka and Chihaya vs. Wendy!
*Mushroom City ~ Glamour Street ~ Central Plaza*
*Insert Theme: “Koopaling Battle” (New Super Mario Bros. Wii)*
The eyes of everybody present at Glamour Street were frozen into the very spot where Wendy O. Koopa stood, all except for Bowser Jr., who, out of exhaustion from trying to catch up with the female Koopaling, decided to take a short nap, though unbekonowest to the Koopa Prince did Takane take a slight interest in him, much to Hibiki’s dismay.
“My, my, this little turtle sure knows how to sleep peacefully..” The Silver Queen was looking at the snoozing Koopa, who clearly has a visible snot bubble as he snored the day away.
“Hey, wait a minute, Takane!! What do you think you’re doing?! Won’t the turtle kid’s father be upset at what your’e doing?!” Hibiki pleaded, remembering Bowser snapping at Takane on the way to Peach’s Castle before.
“Don’t you worry, Hibiki..I planning to do anything to Bowser Jr….yet..” Takane smiled a bit too calmly, to which the Okinawan Idol sighed in disdain and the Koopa Prince somehow found less of an urge to wake up.
“I noticed how much you girls are SO popular with your flashy outfits and your spirited dancing, and you know what.. IT REALLY TICKS ME OFF!!” Wendy shouted out in a jealous rage. Before anyone else could say a word or react in some way, Iori walked over toward Wendy in an angered fit.
“Hey, we all work really hard to get where we are in the celebrity world! What does that even make you??”
Angered even further by Iori’s remark, Wendy rushed over to strike her. Yoshi rushed in front of Iori, green spotted Egg in hand, ready to defend her, but then, all of a sudden, Rawk Hawk swooped down and grabbed her by the leg.
“What.. HEY!!! Put me down! Put me down this instant!!!” Wendy demanded while trying to squirm away from the Glitz Pit champion’s firm grip, to no avail..
“Chill out, little one! There’s no way I’m gonna let THIS part of the party get wrecked by troublemakers! I know I’m not supposed to hit little kids, but that jealous temper tantrum is way too much! Rawk Hawk countered, with Wendy flailing about.
“Rawk-a Hawk, what-a should we do? I know for a fact dat Bowsa has command over da Koopalings, so he’ll likely go on da attack if we knock her!” Mario quickly iasked his former rival.
“Hmm…good point, Gonzales. Let me think…” Rawk Hawk began to scratch his chin for a bit, but then an idea popped up, complete with a visible light bulb over the champ’s head for a bit!” “I got it! Why not we have a dance-off for the battle?”
“A dance off??” Everyone asked in unison, curious as to what the champ’s planning.
“Yep! A dance off, just like the one earlier, but this time, it’ll be oriented on overtaking one other team!” Rawk Hawk answered diligently.
“I see…then..Junior, wake up!!” Wendy ran to the snoozing Bowser Jr.
“Wha..HEY!!! I was in a middle of a nap after your crazy running!!” Bowser Jr. groaned after being so rudely woken up.
“Never mind that! I need you against those sissies!” Wendy grabbed the sulking Koopa Prince’s against his will, much to Takane’s dismay before she got the chance!
“Oh jeez! ..Ugh..whatever…” Bowser Jr. frowned, unbeknowest to him, Bowser just happens to be watching the newest event from back at his castle!
*End Theme*
*Bowser’s Castle ~ Throne Room*
*Insert Theme: “Bowser’s Theme” (Mario Party 2)*
The Koopa King turned on the wide video screen of his T.V., interested in the events involving Glamour Street and was shocked to see Wendy and Bowser Jr. up against the Idols.. on their own turf of challenge!
“Whoa, I expected Wendy to want to take part of this.. but Junior?? This I did NOT see coming!” Bowser reacted In shock, almost ready to choke on his own flames.
“Indeed, this is unforeseen, My Shockedness! This stood as a unique method for Young Lord bowser Junior to attempt, even though it seems to be Wendy’s idea..” Namek pointed out needlessly.
“So it was WENDY’S idea, eh?? Let’s see how this turns out!” Bowser calmly rested on his throne in anticipation, the other Koopalings all waiting eagerly what their sister could do.
*Mushroom City ~ Glamour Street ~ Diamond Stage*
*Insert Theme: “Good Luck!” (Mario Party 3)*
It was decided that the duel between Wendy and Bowser Jr. would be decided in a dance off! However, since they just finished the grueling Dance Battle against Mario, Luigi, and Peach, Haruka and Chihaya were not really in a good condition to dance at the moment!
“Whew, couldn’t we at least take a bit of a breaker? The last dance earlier sure tired me out!” Haruka groaned, sweat pretty much visible from her forehead.
“Nice try, but no! I want to prove what sissies you are, and there’s no way you’re backing off!” Wendy snorted, blowing a raspberry, while Bowser Jr. stayed quiet, knowing that his plan can’t get to fruition like this, but then he stared at Iori and decided to reaffirm his resolve. Iori was clueless as to why the Koopa Prince stared at her, but Yoshi began to notice and quietly glare, knowing the young Koopa was up to something..
“What’ll we do Haruka? I am not liking where this is going..” Chihaya began to worry; she was hoping for some singing and ended up with more than she could chew!
“Haruka! Chihaya! Catch!” Mario rushed over to the two Idols and threw two small red Mushrooms into their mouths.
“What de…Mario-san??” Chihaya choked up a mouthful.
“Just-a eat dem! It’ll give-a you da energy to-a get through dis!” The heroic plumber shouted out, and, sure enough, Haruka and Chihaya chewed the Mushrooms and swallowed. The taste somehow felt like honey, and somehow the two were revitalized, like they went through a three-second-fast sauna!”
“Wow! I feel like I’m full of energy now!” Haruka beamed happily.
“Yes..somehow, these fungi allowed to regain ourselves. It’s like we were never fatigued in the first place.” Chihaya stood in wonder at the Mushrooms’ feel-great effect.
With a glint of confidence in her eyes, Haruka turned to her friend, So, are we ready to clinch this?”
“Yes..perhaps I’ll have a chance to sing after all!” Chihaya smiled, confidence calmly brewing within her.
“Aghhh!!!! Darn you, Mario!!” Wendy growled angrily, pouting at the lovable plumber for helping the Idols out!
“Hey-a, all’s-a fair in da love and war, Wendy!” Mario happily retorted, heading back to the sidelines.
In a rare moment, Bowser Jr. decided to back up Mario’s claim. “I may not like that meanie Mario, but what he did WAS fair, to be honest. You kinda challenged the Idols when they were tired from their last dance, and he decided to even the chances.”
Back at Bowser’s Castle, Bowser also backed up the claim, scratching his head in the process. “Son’s right. The plumb-scum’s made the right choice. I DO want to kidnap the Idols in prime condition, you know…”
Back at Glamour Street, Wendy frowned, knowing her plan to challenge the Idols at their weakest was blown up in her face, and had no choice but to accept the evened terms. “..Fine let’s get this over with!”
“Insert Theme: “Bowser’s Theme” (Dance Dance Revolution)*
(Narrator: Say, uh Bowser-san? Is it okay if we use your theme as a dance song right now?)
(Bowser: ..Whatever, knock yourself out! I’m watching the thing either way!)
(Narrator: Okay..just wanted your say-so to use this!)
The special Dance Battle started against Wendy and Bowser Jr. Quickly, Haruka and Chihaya got into the beat of the song. While the dance continued, a missile suddenly appeared! Ritsuko and the Producer panic, thinking it might detonate upon impact, but against all expectations the missile got itself buried without any explosion and a hammer popped out of the missile and smashed Bowser Jr. into a round pancake.
“Wha-WHAT THE?!?! THIS DOESN’T MAKE ANY SENSE!!!” Ritsuko threw her arms in complete shock over the ridiculous mishap.
“Welcome to my world…this whole party has been full of weird happenings.” Touma deadpanned to the intelligent Idol.
“Oomphh!! I guess this is what Poppa felt during a Dance Battle he had with Mario before…” The young koopa Prince reinflated himself and struggled to get back to the beat.
“C’mon, Junior! Step up to the beat would you?!” Wendy nagged angrily.
“Geez, I’m trying!!” Bowser Jr. frowned, trying to catch his breath. From the sidelines, Ami and Mami watch at the hapless Koopa duo with mischievous smiles on their faces.
“Geez, their teamwork is awful!” Ami shrugged, looking at her twin sister.
“You said it! Even Yoshi-chan and Iorin can do much better!” Mami agreed, then looking at the mentioned two.
“Yeah, since they’re getting pretty chummy! Heehee!” Ami giggled, enough for Iori and Yoshi to realize what the twins are talking about!
*Insert Sound Effect: “Bouncing Spring”*
“Y..YOU TWO!!! We’re..we’re just good friends, r..right Yoshi-chan!” Iori blurted out, while blushing up a storm!
“Y…Yeah, that’s right! We’re just good friends, okay? So don’t start spreading rumors like that!” Yoshi yelped, agreeing with the beloved tsundere, unfortunately, his face was blushing a bright vivid pink!
Ami and Mami turned toward each other and mischievously whispered, “Mmm-mm-mm! Keep denying while you two still can!”, while Yayoi was clueless as to what the conversation was all about.
Sure enough, Bowser Jr. and Wendy, because of pretty shoddy teamwork, kept losing momentum to the song and kept getting smashed by the hammer that came out of the missile. Haruka and Chihaya were bopped by the hammer a few times, but kept rhythm. Even Chihaya had the urge to sing a few notes of one of the songs she practiced in her free time, which annoyed Wendy and made her lose even more tension.
“Darn you, Blue willow! I’m not going to let it end like this!!” Wendy snarled and tried to throw a punch at the songstress, to which she kept rhythm and dodged.
“Wendy, you idiot! You’re not supposed to…eh?? Oh no…don’t tell me…” The young mischievous Koopa Prince began to scold the spoiled Koopaling, but then the hammer readied itself and knocked the two Koopas into the air!
“WAAAAHHHH!!!! I’M TELLING POPPA BOWSER!!!!” Wendy cried as she was sent flying to the stars and literally became one.
“Ughh…looks like Wendy’s blasting off again…” Bowser Jr. commented, but as quickly as he was going up in the air, he began to.. “ ..and I’M GOING DOWN!!!!”
Ai, Eri, Ryou, and Birdo, notice the plummeting Koopa Prince falling right onto them.
“Dears, it’s pretty much time to leave this table!” The bow-wearing dinosaur alerted, with the Dearly Stars looking up and scrambling in random directions to get away!
*THUD!!!!!!!!!*
*End Theme*
*Mushroom City ~ Glamour Street ~ Central Plaza*
“Is the dance over?” Peach quietly asked as Team Mario and the Idols now look at the hole where the table the 876 Pro Trio members were sitting earlier was at, bearing the shape of the very Koopa who made the hole.
“I, uh..think-a so…Wendy was-a sent packing…dat only leaves-a Bowsa Junia…” Mario contemplated as he went to take a closer look at the hole.
“Ughh..well serves her right for being a spoiled brat in front of the Idols!” Bowser Jr. grumbled as he struggled out of the hole, but as he exited, the young Koopa Prince ended up seeing all of Team Mario, the Idols, Producer-san, Rawk Hawk, King K., Yoshi Kid, and the Jupiter trio, all with unimpressed gazes at the little party crasher.
“Ugh, just because you got Wendy beat doesn’t mean the battle is over!” Bowser Jr. pointed at the group, only for the threat to fall on shallow ears.
“Geez, look pipsqueak! You’re heavily outnumbered here, myself and Gonzales included! So why you make yourself scarce before you get RAWWWKKKED by ALL of us!” Rawk Hawk countered Bowser Jr.’s threat with a threat of his own,
The young Koopa, knowing full that the tables has turned, reached inside his shell and pulled out the remote control for his Koopa Klown Kar and quickly pressed it, which allowed the vehicle to hover out of the hiding location in the outskirts. Somehow, the Koopa Klown Kar had extra attachments come form afar, remote controlled to join in with the vehicle, combining to make a medium-sized Koopa Klown Mech!
“Wow, Ludwig really outdid himself when I asked him to install some new features to the Klown Kar…” Bowser Jr. was awed at the vehicle’s newest functions, then hit a button, “And let’s see about having an Idol to go!” A large arm formt eh mech went and grabbed Iori without hesitation.
*Insert Theme: “Bowser Jr.’s Mad!” (Mario Party 9)*
“H..HEY!!! LET ME GO!!” Iori struggled to free herself, but the grip of the hand was too much for her.
“IORI!!!” Everyone cried out as the Koopa Klown Mech tries to leave, only to end up tripping and falling over and injuring the arm. And the cause? Rawk Hawk let his instincts as a professional fighter kick in and grabbed ahold of one of the legs, making the whole machine lose balance and fall over. Yoshi then seized his chance to throw an egg and knock one of the fingers aside and free Iori.
“Whew…thanks, Yoshi-chan! You sure were quick!” Iori sighed a breath of relief as she hung on to the green bipedal.
“Heh, told you I’d help this time!” Yoshi winked as he got out of the way of the mech’s attack and back to the group.
“Iori!! Are you okay?” Producer-san ran to Iori as she got off of Yoshi.
“Like YOU’VE been any help, baka Producer!!!” Iori glared at the hjapless Producer, while Yoshi turned and shrugged.
“Grrrrr, darn you stupid dinosaur!!! I was supposed to have Iori’s attention, not you!!!” Bowser Jr. angrily pouted, but then Mario stepped forward to challenge the Koopa Prince.
“What?! First Mama Peach, now the Idols?! Must you always get in the way, Mario?!” Bowser Jr. yelled out angrily at the red plumber.
“I’ll-a make-a sure you don’t-a take-a Peachy or da Idols!” Mario declared as he pointed at the Koopa Prince. Little did the plumber know, Haruka and Chihaya, a little miffed from the failed kidnapping, decided to back up the Mushroom Kingdom hero to knock back Bowser Jr. to where he came from.
“Mario-san, is it okay if we join you in this battle? If we let him sit around, he might attempt to take Iori again, and I for one will not sit still for that!” Chihaya turned to Mario with a serious expression.
“I would, but can-a either of-a you fight?” Mario quietly questioned the blue-haired Idol.
“Don’t worry! We’ll think of something!” Haruka kindly responded with a wink.
Realizing the perseverance in their eyes, Mario calmed down and reached into his pocket and pulled out two different flowers with eyeballs, the first one a bright red and yellow flower, the other one bearing a blue and cyan color.
*End Theme*
“At least-a take-a da Fire Flower and da Ice Flower! They’ll-a help-a you two out!” Mario handed the flowers to the two Idols.
*Insert Temporary Theme: “Fire Mario” (Super Mario Galaxy 2)*
Within a few moments, when Haruka held the Fire Flower, she felt a fiery aura around her quickly altering her appearance, her pink attire changing into white and fiery red with flame symbols all over. To top it off, heat began to emante from her hair. Fire Haruka stood in amazement in her newfound power.
*End Theme, Insert Temporary Theme: “Ice Mario” (Super Mario Galaxy)*
Chihaya was no different as the Ice Flower took its effect in altering her appearance as well. Her pink attire changed into one of snowy white and a frigid light blue. To top it off her blue hair changed to that of a lighter hue and a very cold gale emanated from her being. Ice Chihaya stood amazed at the flower’s effects flowing within her.
*End Theme, Insert Theme: “Fight Against An Armed Boss” (Super Mario RPG)*
“Wha…WHAT THE??? What happened to Haruka and Chihaya??” Ritsuko stood aghast at the new forms Haruka and Chihaya were in and wondered if her glasses were somehow fogged up.
“It’s-a no surprise, Ritsuko. Bro and I used items like these two flowers in our battles against Bowser. They’ve surely helped out in the past, and they are surely helping out now!” Luigi explained in a confident tone.
“I’d like to see more flowers like these!” Yukiho exclaimed cheerfully, stars pretty much in her eyes.
“With Fire Flowers and Ice Flowers abundant right now, this won’t be a problem!” Daisy cheerfully responded.
“Well, that’s flower power for you!” Shouta winked, only to badly annoy Touma, “Ugh, that pun was just bad!”
“Yeah, RAWK THAT PIPSQUEAK HARD, GONZALES! YOU TWO IDOLS AS WELL!” Rawk Hawk cheered as he easily held the mech’s leg in place.
Mario then wasted no time in pulling out what looks like an orange and white feather, but then wasted no time in touching it. As the feather disappeared, a billowing yellow cape appeared on Mario’s back. Cape Mario stood ready for battle.
“Grr. Just because you powered yourself AND the Idols doesn’t mean you’ll win so easily, Mario!” Bowser Jr. scoffed as he managed to shake off Rawk Hawk and get the Koopa Klown Mech ready for battle.
“Bring it on!” Cape Mario declared as he, Fire Haruka, and Ice Chihaya brace themselves against this mechanical titan, with everyone watching from the sidelines!
*End Theme*
Well, that’s the end of another chapter! Yep, I ended one boss attack to begin another right off the bat! And yep, I decided to give Haruka and Chihaya unique forms for the powerful flowers used. It can’t be just the Mario Bros. who will use the items to help now, can we now? Also, despite lack of requests, I’ve been thinking of another arc after the Glamour Arc to go with after this, and I thought of Creepy Steeple from “Paper Mario: The Thousand Year Door” as the backdrop! So yep if anyone wants to see the Idols in the outfits for “Kyun! Vampire Girl”, stay tuned, ‘cause I might just do that! The epic battle against Bowser Jr. begins next chapter!

*Insert Theme: “Bowser Jr.’s Mad!” (Mario Party 9)*
“H..HEY!!! LET ME GO!!” Iori struggled to free herself, but the grip of the hand was too much for her.
“IORI!!!” Everyone cried out as the Koopa Klown Mech tries to leave, only to end up tripping and falling over and injuring the arm. And the cause? Rawk Hawk let his instincts as a professional fighter kick in and grabbed ahold of one of the legs, making the whole machine lose balance and fall over. Yoshi then seized his chance to throw an egg and knock one of the fingers aside and free Iori.
“Whew…thanks, Yoshi-chan! You sure were quick!” Iori sighed a breath of relief as she hung on to the green bipedal.
“Heh, told you I’d help this time!” Yoshi winked as he got out of the way of the mech’s attack and back to the group.
“Iori!! Are you okay?” Producer-san ran to Iori as she got off of Yoshi.
“Like YOU’VE been any help, baka Producer!!!” Iori glared at the hjapless Producer, while Yoshi turned and shrugged.
“Grrrrr, darn you stupid dinosaur!!! I was supposed to have Iori’s attention, not you!!!” Bowser Jr. angrily pouted, but then Mario stepped forward to challenge the Koopa Prince.
“What?! First Mama Peach, now the Idols?! Must you always get in the way, Mario?!” Bowser Jr. yelled out angrily at the red plumber.
“I’ll-a make-a sure you don’t-a take-a Peachy or da Idols!” Mario declared as he pointed at the Koopa Prince. Little did the plumber know, Haruka and Chihaya, a little miffed from the failed kidnapping, decided to back up the Mushroom Kingdom hero to knock back Bowser Jr. to where he came from.
“Mario-san, is it okay if we join you in this battle? If we let him sit around, he might attempt to take Iori again, and I for one will not sit still for that!” Chihaya turned to Mario with a serious expression.
“I would, but can-a either of-a you fight?” Mario quietly questioned the blue-haired Idol.
“Don’t worry! We’ll think of something!” Haruka kindly responded with a wink.
Realizing the perseverance in their eyes, Mario calmed down and reached into his pocket and pulled out two different flowers with eyeballs, the first one a bright red and yellow flower, the other one bearing a blue and cyan color.
*End Theme*
“At least-a take-a da Fire Flower and da Ice Flower! They’ll-a help-a you two out!” Mario handed the flowers to the two Idols.
*Insert Temporary Theme: “Fire Mario” (Super Mario Galaxy 2)*
Within a few moments, when Haruka held the Fire Flower, she felt a fiery aura around her quickly altering her appearance, her pink attire changing into white and fiery red with flame symbols all over. To top it off, heat began to emante from her hair. Fire Haruka stood in amazement in her newfound power.
*End Theme, Insert Temporary Theme: “Ice Mario” (Super Mario Galaxy)*
Chihaya was no different as the Ice Flower took its effect in altering her appearance as well. Her pink attire changed into one of snowy white and a frigid light blue. To top it off her blue hair changed to that of a lighter hue and a very cold gale emanated from her being. Ice Chihaya stood amazed at the flower’s effects flowing within her.
*End Theme, Insert Theme: “Fight Against An Armed Boss” (Super Mario RPG)*
“Wha…WHAT THE??? What happened to Haruka and Chihaya??” Ritsuko stood aghast at the new forms Haruka and Chihaya were in and wondered if her glasses were somehow fogged up.
“It’s-a no surprise, Ritsuko. Bro and I used items like these two flowers in our battles against Bowser. They’ve surely helped out in the past, and they are surely helping out now!” Luigi explained in a confident tone.
“I’d like to see more flowers like these!” Yukiho exclaimed cheerfully, stars pretty much in her eyes.
“With Fire Flowers and Ice Flowers abundant right now, this won’t be a problem!” Daisy cheerfully responded.
“Well, that’s flower power for you!” Shouta winked, only to badly annoy Touma, “Ugh, that pun was just bad!”
“Yeah, RAWK THAT PIPSQUEAK HARD, GONZALES! YOU TWO IDOLS AS WELL!” Rawk Hawk cheered as he easily held the mech’s leg in place.
Mario then wasted no time in pulling out what looks like an orange and white feather, but then wasted no time in touching it. As the feather disappeared, a billowing yellow cape appeared on Mario’s back. Cape Mario stood ready for battle.
“Grr. Just because you powered yourself AND the Idols doesn’t mean you’ll win so easily, Mario!” Bowser Jr. scoffed as he managed to shake off Rawk Hawk and get the Koopa Klown Mech ready for battle.
“Bring it on!” Cape Mario declared as he, Fire Haruka, and Ice Chihaya brace themselves against this mechanical titan, with everyone watching from the sidelines!
*End Theme*
Well, that’s the end of another chapter! Yep, I ended one boss attack to begin another right off the bat! And yep, I decided to give Haruka and Chihaya unique forms for the powerful flowers used. It can’t be just the Mario Bros. who will use the items to help now, can we now? Also, despite lack of requests, I’ve been thinking of another arc after the Glamour Arc to go with after this, and I thought of Creepy Steeple from “Paper Mario: The Thousand Year Door” as the backdrop! So yep if anyone wants to see the Idols in the outfits for “Kyun! Vampire Girl”, stay tuned, ‘cause I might just do that! The epic battle against Bowser Jr. begins next chapter!
