Koopas in the Amazon
 
By Yellow Yoshi

One day at Dark Land Middle School (DMS), the students are asked to do a project.

Goomba/ Teacher: Ok class, today we start our Latin America Unit.

Class: Yay!

Goomba: Our first start is to label all the countries on this map of South America.

Class: Aww.

Goomba: But you get to color them! Huh? ANY favs?

(Silence)

Goomba: Ok class, let's get to work.

Class: *mumble*

Later that class...

Goomba: Ok class, is everyone done.

Class: Yeah.

Goomba: Now for the fun part.

Class: Huh?

Goomba: You guys have an assigned project on South America.

Jerry Koopa: What kind of project?

Goomba: Anything you want. Due in one week.

Samantha/Sam Koopa: That seems cool.

Wendy: Yeah.

(Rrrrrrrrrrriiiiiiiinnnnnnngggggg)

Goomba: Ok, class dismissed.

(They leave the classroom.)

Iggy: Ah! I know what I want to do.

Roy: What?

Iggy: The Amazon River.

Ludwig: Ooooooh! I want to be your partner!

Iggy: I was actually hoping we could all do the project together.

Others: Huh?

Iggy: Ya see, no Koopa has been to the Amazon yet. So if we go, we'll be famous! And seriously get an A+.

Lemmy: I'm down.

Larry: Let's go.

Wendy: We should.

Ludwig: Yeah.

Roy: I would, but that's too much work. We could just fish up some info on the Web.

(Chris Koopa walks by.)

Chris: Hey guys. What y'all doin’ for your project?

Iggy: We’re going to the Amazon.

Chris: Really?! Oh, that would be awesome! I wish I could make history.

Lemmy: So what are you doin’?

Chris: I might just cook up something that'll get me a B or higher.

Others: K.

(Chris walks away.)

At the castle...

Iggy: So can we? Huh? Huh? Can we?

Bowser: Sure Iggy, But since it was your idea, you have to navigate.

Ludwig: I'll be your second-in-command!

Larry: What is it about science that makes you two so uppity?

Both: I don't know.

Bowser: I'm coming with you guys to make sure nothing goes wrong.

Others: K.

An hour later...

Iggy: So we got everything?

(Others say yep while Roy says no.)

Iggy: No?

Roy: We got entertainment?

Iggy: Why that?

Roy: Besides being a bully, I gotta have some sort of game.

Iggy: But there are no power sockets in water.

Roy: I'll bring a portable.

Iggy: But what if you run out of batteries?

Roy: We have a boat charger.

Wendy: Can we go now?

Iggy: Let's roll.

Koopalings: Woo Hoo!

Bowser: What have I gotten myself into?

Meanwhile...

Chris: Mom! We got any Tortillos?

Mom: I don't think so!

Chris: Aw man...

Back to the Koopas...

Iggy: Onward! To- achoo! *sniff* Onward! To- achoo! *sniff* Onward! T- achoo! *sniff* Onward! Achoo! *sniff* On- achoo! *sniff* Achoo! Achoo! Achoooooooooooooooooooooo!!!

Bowser: Are you done?

Iggy: *sniff* I guess so.

Ludwig: To South America!

So the Koopas warp to the Atlantic Ocean. Wendy gets seasick (which is weird considering Water land is hers), a dolphin jumps out and snatches Roy's burger, the boat charger electrocutes and the games run out of battery, and Larry nags about the possibility of dieing until they crash into the Andes Mountains.

Bowser: Ow! What the-

Ludwig: Oh great! We crashlanded in the Andes Mountains!

Roy: That's good! We can take some pics! And write down stuff! And I brought a pipe so we can get our info and get the cheese outta here!

Lemmy: Now what do we do?

Roy: I just said it!

Ludwig: No! We came here to explore the Amazon! So we shall do so!

Bowser: (Well excuse me.)

Meanwhile...

Chris: Soft tacos!

Mom: We don't have those either.

Chris: Aw man!

Back to Peru...

Iggy: So, where are we?

Ludwig: Peru.

Wendy: Ooooh! Where's the mall?

Ludwig: Not here! Not now!

Wendy: *hissing*

Bowser: How far do we have to go?

Iggy: Hey look!

Roy: Oh cool!

Larry: What? The motorcycles?

Iggy: Yeah!

Roy: Let's take em'!

...

(motorcycles running)

Roy: Woo!

Lemmy: This is awesome!

Bowser: Wait, dead end? Entering Brazil Rain forest?

Larry: Hmm, wonder what that means-

(crash)

Bowser: Ow!

Wendy: What the?

Larry: I think my leg is broken!

Ludwig: Wow!

Bowser: Wow? Wow? Wow?! Wow??!! Wow???!!! Wow??????? WOW????????????????????????????????????????

Ludwig: ... Um.

Bowser: We're stuck in Brazil in the middle of the rain forest without transportation, and all you have to say is WOW?!

Ludwig: The rain forest is pret-

Bowser: I don't care if the rain forest looks like a meadow of peanut butter and jelly sandwiches! We need vehicles! Then we can frolic!

Meanwhile...

Chris: Do we have tomatoes?

Mom: No.

Chris: Man!

Back to... Brazil...

Morton: Well, my bike in some way is still running much more like my mouth but you guys tell me to shut up or shuddap or some form of saying be quiet in a harmful way but you guys can’t say shut up or shuddap to a bike because bikes can't say or do anything after that so-

Koopas: Shut up!

Morton: See! See!

Bowser: I don't know how we are going to all cram on one bike. And we don't have a boat anymore-

Lemmy: We do, we just left it at the harbor.

Bowser: What?!

At the harbor...

Guy: Haclria! meya smoctro jeronno boat screlacto mensami keys felordia steal!

(boat engine runs)

Guy: Adios Amigos!

Back to the rain forest...

Wendy: Water! Water!

Lemmy: Which of these rivers is the Amazon?

Roy: Hey look!

Iggy: A light!

Bowser: That must be the Amazon! Come on!

(The Koopas run to the light and find a guy holding up a very, very bright lamp.)

Bowser: Wha?! Man, what are you doing?!

Guy: I can't see at all, young one! Got a problem with it?!

Wendy: That exaggerates it a bit, don't you think?

Bowser: Can you tell us where the Amazon is?

Guy: Duhurhurhur! It's that big one over there!

Iggy: Well let’s-

Lemmy: Go!

Meanwhile...

Chris: No tortillas! No soft shell! No tomatoes! Do we have beans?!

Mom: No.

Chris: Gah!

(Back to the Amazon.)

Larry: We don't have a boat!

Iggy: Hey look! A raft!

Larry: That small thing?! With Dad's fat we won't all fit on that thing!

Bowser: Hey!

Larry: Whadda you gonna do, old man?

(toss)

Larry: AAAAAHHHHHHHHHH!!! *splash*

Koopas: Woo! Woo woo hoo!

Larry: Fine! I'll swim!

Bowser: Get back here, boy!

Roy: Well wadda ya gonna do then?

(warp)

Chris: NO BEANS???????????? YOU HAVE TO BE KIDDING ME!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Oh, hey guys.

Lemmy: … What are you doing here?!

Chris: I must've kicked the warp switch.

Koopas: Noo! Noo! Wait!

(warp)

Larry: And there goes our only transportation!

Bowser: Stop nagging! We'll catch a plane!

Wendy: Aren't we supposed to be writing stuff down?

...

(sketchpad noises)

Iggy: Well some of us are just gonna have to tag on to the side! And since it was MY idea to go on this trip, it's not me!

Ludwig: I'm second in command!

Bowser: I'm captain of this ship!

Lemmy: I'm with Iggy. I can't swim anyway.

Larry: That water is full of dangerous animals! I call boat!

Wendy: Oh, you know I won't be in the water!

Roy: Since I'm a MAN, I'll take the water.

Bowser: Zank you. Now we need a water. Morton!

Morton: What am I getting to ride in the boat because the water is dangerous like naggy said but I think the seats are uncomfortable and unsafe with chance of splinters but yeah the boat is better so-

Bowser: You are in the water!

Morton: Kaykay!

Ludwig: So childish!

Iggy: Onward! To- achoo! *sniff* Onward! To- achoo! *sniff* Onward! T- achoo! *sniff* Onward! Achoo! *sniff* On- achoo! *sniff* Achoo! Achoo! Achoooooooooooooooooooooo!!!

Bowser: Iggy!

The Koopas start kayaking down the Amazon. Meanwhile...

Chris: Bananas!

Mom: Nooooo.

Chris: Aaahh!!!

Back to the Amazon...

Ludwig: Wendy! Stop slacking!

Wendy: I don't want to! I'm on vacation!

Iggy: This is a social studies project! Not summer!

Bowser: Wendyyyyyyyyy, you contribute to this project as much as your brothers do.

Wendy: Women don't work!

Larry: *snicker* Women. Yeah right.

(smack)

Larry: Ow! Oww!! Owwwwwwa!!! AAAAAAHHHHHH!!!

Bowser: Larry, hush up before the Brazilian cops report us!

Larry: But she hit me!

Bowser: So?! Roy: *pant, pant* Can I take a break now?

Bowser: No!

Ludwig: The air is thick here.

(sketchpad noises)

Lemmy: Duckies! Iggy: Wow! Wait! Lemmy! Duck!

Lemmy: Where?! Where?!

(hard whack)

Lemmy: Oh!

(splash)

Bowser: Stop the boat!

Ludwig: What now?!

(If you don't know what happened, Lemmy got struck by a tree branch and fell in the river.)

Morton: Is there wedding cake involved?

Koopas: No!

Lemmy: Help! I can't swim!

Wendy: Why don't we just leave him?

Larry: You smell like feet!

Wendy: D:< That's it!

(shove)

Larry: Waauuuggghhh!!!

(splash)

(Wendy starts rowing but doesn't get far.)

Larry: Oh no! You're not leaving without me!

Lemmy: *gurgling*

Iggy: I'm coming for ya, Lemmy!

(Iggy dives into the water to rescue Lemmy.)

Larry: Get back here!

Bowser: Guys, stop! Right now!

Ludwig: Nice flowers...

(Larry dives at the boat and grabs the back. Once he gets his other hand aboard, he tips the boat and the Koopas fall in the water.

Koopas: Aah!!!

Meanwhile in the Mushroom Kingdom...

Chris: Gimme all the food in the Mexican aisle!

Checkout Toad: Sorry, man, we just got robbed.

(Chris falls to the floor.)

Chris: (muffled) I'm doomed.

Back to the Amazon...

(The Koopas are fighting.)

Bowser: STOOOOOOOOOOOOPPPPPP!!!

Iggy: Aw man! You guys tore up the raft!

Ludwig: Great. Good. That's good. Good @#$(*&^ woops! I waste my time telling you guys facts and you tear up the raft!!!

Bowser: Watch your mouth!

Ludwig: This stinks. This is *&^%$ in tiny *****.

Wendy: I'm all wet thanks to little balls!

Lemmy: What did I do?!

Wendy: If you had ducked, we wouldn't be in this mess!

Lemmy: Well if you hada- ohhhhh. Dat wat Hop meant.

Iggy: Duh!

Roy: Relax! I'm sure Chris will just pop up again and we can ride him home.

(warp)

Chris: NO MINUTE RICE????? AAAHHH- woah! Wo- ah! *splash*

(warp)

Larry: And there goes our only transportation!

Iggy: The Amazon flows to the Atlantic Ocean. We are just gonna have to tread while the Amazon carries us out.

Larry: And how are we gonna get to the warp pipe, genius?!

Iggy: You'll see.

(So after hours of treading and writing notes on wet sketchpads, the Koopas finally reach Ecuador.)

Wendy: Um, where exactly is this?

Bowser: Looks like Peru.

Ludwig: Actually it's Ecuador.

Lemmy: The Amazon flows here?

Ludwig: Technologically, no. As a matter of fact we're not even IN the Amazon anymore.

Koopas: WHAT?!

Ludwig: Yeah! Don't you remember when we switched over to the right an hour ago? When Wendy bumped her head on that rock?

Iggy: *snap* Oh yeah, yeah!

Bowser: Well why didn't you say something?!

Ludwig: I was confused myself!

Lemmy: Then how do you know this isn't the Amazon?

Ludwig: This river is much smaller.

Koopas: *groaning*

Larry: Great! Great! Now we're stuck in South America, MILES away from home!

Bowser: Stop nagging!

Larry: Nag! Nag! Nag!

Iggy: What about our project?

Ludwig: Well there's no reason for going back now! We need to find a way home!

Roy: Hello! We're in a city! We can jack a dude's car and catch a warp train!

Bowser: Well there's no use in just sitting around! Come on!

(The Koopas rush over to a bar and take a limo.)

Wendy: Yes! Yes! This is vacation!

Lemmy: Well now we can arrive in style!

Bowser: Where are we going?

Ludwig: The Atlantic Warp Lines is only about 30 minutes away from here.

30 minutes layta...

Larry: Phew! We're saved!

Meanwhile...

Chris: This is not happening. One day left to cook food, and I don't have anything to cook!

Mom: Well, since cooking is down, what about a report?

Chris: I can't just type up something all willy-nilly! *snap* I know! I'll tag on with the Koopas!

Back to the AWL...

Loud Speaker: Mushroom Kingdom leaving in 5 minutes.

Iggy: That must be us.

Bowser: Even though it didn't go as you planned, you still made history! I mean, who can say they were the first to do something?

Lemmy: Yeah!

Iggy: Maybe, but what about the report part?

Ludwig: I wrote facts down but they got wet when we fell.

Lemmy: I put some facts as well but I placed them in my ball compartment.

Koopas: WHAT?!

Larry: You had a ball compartment all this time, AND YOU DIDN'T EVEN TELL US?!

Lemmy: ...

Bowser: Relax! We're almost home.

Meanwhile...

Chris: Man, this is gonna be weird! This is gonna be so weird! Where are they?!

Mom: Patience, Chris.

Brolo: Hey Chris, wanna play?

Chris: Go away!

Brolo: Just chill!

Chris: I need to write something!

(Back to- Oh wait, they're at the castle.)

Lemmy: Woo! It's good to be home!

Wendy: Now I can carry my right glover!

Iggy: If only we had stayed longer to learn about the Amazon.

Larry: I took some pics but only of animals and plants n' shoop.

Ze next day...

Mr. Goomba: Well, I hope you all spent the weekend working hard, because now is presenting day. Who wants to go first?

Morton: We do!

Koopalings: Morton!

Mr. Goomba: Koopa Kids, you're up.

Wendy: Thanks a lot, Moron!

Iggy: It's not all that bad...

Chris: Oh shoot!

(Chris runs up to the front.)

Lemmy: Chris? What are you doing?

Chris: I-uh I was with you guys! Remember?

Ludwig: No.

Mr. Goomba: Ready when you are.

Iggy: (whispering) Did you forget to do your project?!

Chris: (whispering) No, I couldn't! There was no ethnic food anywhere in sight!

Larry: (whispering) Too bad! We need an A!

Mr. Goomba: Are you guys presenting or not?

Morton: (whispering) I have an idea!

Mr. Goomba: This is ridiculous. Either you present or sit-

Morton: There we were! In the Amazon! But as easy as it seems our journey started in the vary hallways of this school! We were associating with our intern Chris over here, when we decided to be the FIRST to sail the Amazon! So we run home and plague our daddy! Then we set out for the Atlantic Ocean! We battled sickness and dolphins! Plus the War for Boredom! ‘Til we struck the Andes, and set out on foot! Now you would think we'd just quit and go home, but no! We found a way! We got bikes from some random place, and rode the wind all the way to the rain forest of Brazil! But we crashed, and surprisingly my bike was still running! We didn't choose that. We tread the forest, and found a guy! Smart guy, smart yes. He led us to the Amazon, and a raft, all alone, wooden and crusty, we rode. Two of us made sacrifices! I was one! It was a long, harsh journey of note-taking and picturing as shown in this slide show! All of the wild animals and plants! An adventure! We then suffered an argument delay, and hit the river! Raft torn into pieces! We spent hours and hours flowing the river, until we were spotted in Ecuador! We were saddened by our failure but it wasn't over yet! YET! We resided in a fine limo! And rode the warp lines home... Then relaxed, for our adventure was over! And we had made history.

Mr. Goomba: Well, you do get an A because it was a nice presentation, but the whole "being the first" thing kinda dragged a little.

Koopas: What?!

Mr. Goomba: Yeah, um-

Karma: I colonized Venezuela!

Yoshi: Yoshi create art and art hang in Museum!

Jeronimo: I saved a town in Chile and got a memorial.

Sam: I created the Declaration of Independence in Urgay.

Little Boo: Rah rah rah rah rah rah.

Koopas: D:

(wamp wamp waaaaaaa)

Iggy: So... now what do we do?

Mr. Goomba: You go home.

Class: Woo!!!

(The class rushes out the classroom as the Koopalings collapse.)
