Oh hey sorry for bumbling into you

“It’s cool.”

*voices in his head are surrounding them both*

“What the f*ck is that-

Jacob: Sorry . . . my bad . . . . . ( He was very quiet and talked slow )

Echo: -Mumbles the word "Sorry" quietly-

(Mario was walking with his head down, a shadow over his eyes. There were tears flowing out of his eyes.)

“So is that a yes, or-?”

(Brb- gonna go take a n a p)

Mario: Uh, yeah.
(gn, I'm gonna go offline for a while in a bit)

“Alright then. Do i need to explain?”

Mario: Explain what?

“How the river works.”

Mario: Yeah.

“Alright- when a soul is in between dying and going to heaven or hell, they’re washin in the River Styx. When the sink to the bottom, the shadow hands grab em and take em down where they’re then transported- here’s the catch:
If they’re still in the river and not to deep, i can snag em with my special machine.”

“Hey- you alright, kid?”

Mario: *sniff* He's g-gone...

“Oooooh- that’s rough buddy. Mayhaps i could help?” She takes a puff of her cigarette and exhales a cloud of green glowing smoke

Mario: That's a n-nice offer, but death is inevitable... There's n-nothing you can do about it... *sniff*

“That, my friend, is where you’re wrong.” He recognizes the smoke she’s blowing.

Mario: ...?

“You look like you’re remembering something- what is it?”

Mario: That green smoke... It's familiar...

A voice echos in his head-

‘tight bars, little man.’

Mario: Are you related to him?

She raises an eyebrow- “what do you mean?”

(Mario shows her a picture of Garcello.)
Mario: Are you related to this guy?

“Ah- my pops. You knew him?”

Mario: Yeah...

“I was only 11 when I witnessed him cough up his soul- wasn’t a pretty sight.”

Mario: I'm sorry you had to see that...

“It’s cool.” -puff- “I’m on the same path, anyways.” -cough-

“So- what can i help you with?”

Mario: You said you could help me with Luigi.

“Ah, right- have you heard of the River Styx?”

Mario: *Super Paper Mario flashbacks*

Chase: oh- sorry

(. . . Have you played Smoke Em Out Struggle?)

( no )

(Then shush- you dont know who her dad was-)

(ok nvm
Jeremy: so, you want the tires fixed up?

“Yup.”

"alright ill get that done"

“Thanks.”

"aight all done, that'll be 50$"

-pays-

(Lmao tires are WAY more expensive- but whatevs lol)

"i'm giving you a discount just cuz"

“. . .”

my dad didn't really die from smoking...

“I don’t care.”

Ok, sorry
he walks away and you hear him start to cry

-she can’t do anything, so she doesnt give a shit-

on her way home she is stoped by a gang

“What the-“ she stays in her car

Get out of the car

“Absolutely not.”

( there are 5 gang member)
All 5 of them pull out guns

“Uh- nevermind.”

Chase: Tell me

“No.”

Why not

“Then i would be to busy.”

What do you mean

“Nunya.”

Chase cocks a gun
Chase: tell me

“No.”

He puts his gun away
CHase: sorry

“Aw, thanks.”

"no problemo"
he winks
"have a good day"

“Thanks.” She gets in her car and drives off

a few days later you the car shop you go to got bombed

Eh- she hated Jeremy anyway.

the next day you see chase walking in your alley

-smoking-

“It’s cool.’

Chase: U-um who are you?

“Kemuri.” She takes a puff of her cigarette

Chase coughs
Chase: you shouldn't be smoking, it's really bad for humans

“Oh, i know- that’s how my pops died. But it looks cool, doesnt it?” She blows another cloud

Chase: Yeah, my dad died from it too

“Welp- that’s to ba- wait, how recently?”

CHase: last week

“Oooooh- to late buddy.”

Chase: what?

Kemuri rolls her eyes

The men start firing at the tires so now you cant drive off

She drives without her tires, and runs one of them over with no remorse

the men fall over dead

She then drives off to get new tires- and also go to a car wash to get the blood off of her car

The man at the tire store: Back again?

“I keep getting ganged-“

"it's a shame your pop's not alive anymore. all the gangs would leave you alone if he was

“I severely doubt that- also c’mon Jeremy, that is SO sexist-“

"no, that's not what I mean, Your dad was one of the biggest gang leaders when he was your age"
