The Ultimate Fitness Studio, placed in the relative cheap plot of land that is the Black Market the building stood small but proud. However there did not appear to be many people here at this spot. Whether it was unpopular or not could be brought into question but Seriri knew one thing for certain, if Jr. was put in a predicament and she could do nothing to help him she'd be... She sighed, letting the thought wash out of her as she looked up at the doors into the building. There was a tension like no other, could she really be of any help if they did do something to Jr? Well there was few ways to know for certain but to move on. Iggy said he'd send two people to help her out which was nice of him but she had to wonder why he didn't come himself, it was his brother afterall...

"... I hope you are alright, Jr," she said quietly through clasped hands and her eyes closed. Alright, now that she has calmed herself she reached to the door handles... Before retracting her hand. Perhaps she should wait for the other two to get here. Wouldn't do if something happened to both of them, she'd only get in the way then. She looked up at the blue neon sign with the words "Ultimate Fitness Dojo". Something about the way the lights and colors went was almost memorizing...

Meanwhile, in a secret backroom in the facility was two people. One might be familiar to Jr, the other not so much. The room was dark for the moment, hard to see anything for sure, however there seemed to be a moderately heavy weight on his ankle. "You remember the plan, right?" the voice with a trace of german in it's accent said, the figure known as Dieter stood next to a short but stout man with pink hair and a headset. "Yep, yep! Of course I remember what I must do! I will make sure the Prince is fit in no time at all!" he declared with a triumphant clenched fist.

"... Right. Just remember, when the goal is reached, do what you must. We paid a lot of coins so don't mess this up," Dieter advised before a door of light entered the room and closed as the figure left. "Of course! Best fitness manager money can buy! You will not be disappointed!" he called cheerfully. How long has the prince been out? What happened to get here might be foggy at best but it does not appear that at the moment they are too aware of him being awake.

Ready?

Set?

GO!

Madotsuki decided to try out missions for the Life Sphere. She might as well do something while her console was charging. She had heard about some heir being kidnapped, she shrugged. Jr should of known the risks of going to a fitness studio alone when he's the heir of something important. His life was in danger the moment his dad made him the heir of whatever kingdom he lived in.

Plus, Madotsuki really should go out some more. There was nothing for her to do in her new apartment other then write in her dream journal, play any games related to the NASU franchise or sleep, and after her dream ordeal she wasn't going to be sleeping for awhile.

The shows in this Life Sphere sucked as well, so she couldn't watch TV, so missions was the only thing she can do right now that involves her... Going outside.

She had heard that the Black Market was dangerous, but Madotsuki didn't seem to mind as she walked down the shady market and towards the fitness studio. She briefly stopped when she saw one of her partners for this mission was reaching towards the door knob.

She stood there, not saying anything. She almost wanted to see if she would get into trouble before Madotsuki had to step in and help her, when she pulled away, Madotsuki approached her.

"I'm here to help you save the turtle kid that may or not have already lost a finger." Madotsuki knows that in every kidnapping situation like this is that the kidnappers would never ever kill whoever important they have captured, they would often cut off their fingers first and send them to their family members so they can pressure them to do whatever they want.

[heirtothemonado]

Jr woke up to a blurry haze. He wasn't sure where he was, or how he even got here. All he could tell was he was in a dark room and....was that a shackle on his foot? Hey, no fair! He was the kidnapper, not the kidnappee! He had to get out of here! Which would have been a good plan if it weren't for the pounding headache he had. Geez, what happened? Jr wracked his brain for an answer, but that only made his headache worse. 

Voices soon rang out close by, talking about...fitness training? That rang a bell to Jr. He remembered going to a fitness studio, but what did that have to do with anything now? One of those voices sounded familiar too...but no. Jr's head was pounding too much for him to think straight. He squinted into the darkness, making out the shape of short, squat-looking man. Should he try asking him something? 

...No. He wasn't in a position to talk to anyone at the moment, and besides, it didn't look like this guy knew he was conscious yet. Probably would be a better idea if he were to keep it that way for as long as possible. Someone was bound to have noticed he was gone by now. Someone's probably trying to get to him now. Hopefully....

“They’d be hard pressed to find a knife suited best to cut it off~.” A monstrously eloquent voice spoke up, making its way across the street. “We Koopas have skin tough enough to shrug lava off.” It was one of Bowser Jr.’s fathers most loyal and competent subjects, Ludwig Von Koopa himself. No doubt he was here to save the prince as well.
“These Brainless Fitness Fools have some nerve setting up shop in My neighborhood.” Ludwig growled up at the garish neon sign.

“So, I am to assume you are the other two who signed up for what should have been a… family affair.” He coughed into his hand. Surely things haven’t gotten so bad that the crown prince of the Koopas was in such distress he needed damsels to rescue him.
“Surely, if you know of Prince Junior enough to be here, you’re well aware who I am as well~?” He polished his knuckles on his chest. “Though seeing as you’re not quite intimidated enough, allow me to introduce myself: I am known far and wide as the Pompous Prodigy. You may call me the great, Ludwig Von Koopa!” He announced his name as if expecting fanfare or a thunder bolt or something.
“And as leader of the Koopalings and the highest-ranking authority here by far, I shall be accepting my position as leader of this mission now.” He asserted this dominance without leaving it up to so much as a vote.

“Now I’ve been doing reconnaissance on this establishment for quite some time now.” He pointed his thumb at a conspicuously cleaned trash can across the street. “The Koopa Troop has dealt with the BFF before. They’re no push-overs, but no worries, they’re nothing we can’t handle.” He briefed with a twinge of doubt on the we part.

“Even less worries I already have a plan, and it is quite fool-proof if I do say so myself.” He chuckled dastardly to himself. “Surely enough they have some method of defense waiting behind the entrance for the likes of us. Well step one of my plan involves showing them we’re not the least bit afraid of them: We’re tackling this the way those pesky plumbers always do: By walking straight through the front door.”

[Coolshaymin]

The fitness instructor looked back to Bowser Junior for a moment. Why was it so dark in here? Is that why he was still asleep? They said he'd wake up right about now. "Well, I guess he just needs help getting up from bed! Wakey wakey, it's fitness time~!" the man called out as he pulled out a remote control looking device and hit a button on it... Which would cause a buzz from his ankle and a sudden shock to begin to course through Junior!

(Bowser Jr, there is a sudden shock on your body. This is unavoidable but the shock is not too bad right now. You could probably tolerate it with a CON roll of 6 or higher or take 5% damage. Bubble Shield can be used to auto-block the shocks, but only until it breaks.)

The lights then turned on, revealing Jr to be sitting on some conveyor belt device. The room was huge and contained main things covered in a cloth to hide them from sight, including something at the end of the conveyor belt. "So, are you ready for your fitness routine? We'll make sure you shed all that excess weight away, yay~!" the man posed with a flourish. Now that the room was lit up, Jr. might be able to notice an electronic device with a red light currently off on his head. "I will be your instructor, Max Flexer!"

Meanwhile with the Rescue Team

"L-lost his finger?! Why would his finger be missing?!" And on arrival of help, Seriri was already freaking out. Thankfully Ludwig was here to ease her concerns- "They are dunking him in lava too?!"... or not. "Oh um, yes. Iggy asked me to help since... Well Jr. really seems to like me a lot and he thinks me being there would cheer him up..." Seriri explained... implying Iggy was aware of something she wasn't... Somehow. She decided to leave out the part where he said, plus you beat him in a fight so clearly you are more qualified to handle what he can't.

"Oh, so you're Ludwig!" Seriri said in revelation... "I don't think he mentioned, you sorry. Or anyone I've met..." she admitted apologetically.  "And um, Iggy kind of told me I was leader... sorry!" she says in the most unleaderlike fashion humanly possible. "Oh, g-good plan! I'm not afraid at all..." She was shaking a bit. "We'll do that!" She declared opening the doors to reveal... an ordinary looking room if not for the lot of empty space. In fact there was nothing aside from the walls and a big guy. "Welcome to the Ultimate Fitness-" The big guy began before noticing who it was. "... YOU AGAIN?! I'LL CRUSH YOU!" he called in anger, remembering all the mean tricks Ludwig used against him and his peers, and with a quick step and rush, he aimed to punch out the pompous prodigy.

(Ludwig! Beef is attacking you with an introduction punch. Roll a 14 or higher to evade it with DEX or take 10% damage. The hit is accurate but lacks the force he normally has.)

"H-hydro Storm!" Seriri cried in fright and... involuntarily reaction to the big brute, suddenly firing a giant stream of water at him which manages to blast him back with it's power, right into the wall of the room. He didn't seem as phased by it as the usual foe though... In fact he just seemed madder. "Eep... Um, Scald!" She declared, releasing a blast of hot water which he dodged, sweating a bit afterwards though.

Madotsuki remained quiet so she can leave it up to Seriri's imagination as to what she meant by when she said that Jr.'s kidnappers might have chopped off his fingers. I mean she did state why they would of done such a thing, but she was supposedly debunked by Ludwig. She remained quiet as she followed Seriri and Ludwig into the fitness studio to begin their rescue for Jr.

However as she followed the two into the studio they soon faced their first enemy, Beef, who attacked Ludwig first, giving Madotsuki time to use her own attacks on the enemy as her head soon transformed into a giant hand palm with an eye in the center which she aimed at Beef before firing three shots towards him.

egCWqYHYp_1d20 (Jr's Resistance of the electric shock: Success!)

Jr flinched as the electric shock coursed through his body, but it didn't really hurt him. He was made of sterner stuff then that, and besides, he didn't want to show weakness this early on. Although this guy's voice was grating on him. Sounded way too cheerful for this situation.

Then the lights went on, and once Jr's eyes adjusted to the sudden brightness, he started to take in his surroundings, seeing no point to pretending to be asleep anymore. Namely, the various machines covered in cloth, the conveyer belt he was currently sitting on, and the strange contraption on his head. To say Jr was confused would be a bit of an understatement.

"...Fitness routine? Well, that's what I came here for, but...what's with all this?" Jr asked, gesturing around at everything in the room. It seemed a little excessive for a simple workout. "Why am I chained down? And what the heck is this for?" Jr placed a hand to the contraption on his head. "What's going on? This is clearly more then just an exercise regime. What do you want?" Perhaps if Jr could get this "Max Flexer" person to talk a little, he could stall...whatever this was long enough for someone to come find him.....People were looking for him, right?

[TartoonHand94]

Seriri’s explanation of her presence did not pass unnoticed by Ludwig. ‘Like her a lot’, did he? They grow up so fast~. Prince Junior was always known to have luxurious and expensive tastes, so would one rightfully assume a half-fish is trendier than a whole woman now? She had better be the princess of some vast undersea kingdom sitting below the trade routes between several nations or this potential probably Queen of the Koopas may be the even greater of two disappointments!

Being told that Seriri hadn’t heard of him cracked his smile like glass and it shattered when she told him his brother appointed her the leader. Why that two-bit four-eyed Lakitu dropping...
“…Is that right?” Ludwig curved his brow, grinding his nails together as if to file them and hold bag a larger display of frustration. “Well I dread to be the one to have to tell you this, dear, but as Leader of the Koopalings, which includes Iggy, I. Out. Rank. Him. It’s My word above his and My word says I’m the leader!” He prodded his newly sharpened thumb nail into his chest. “Any objections can be taken back to him. But be warned, this mission shall already be over by the time you return.”

So, follow Ludwig’s plan and open the front doors they did. Much to Ludwig’s disappointment, this sprung no traps. No spikes rising up from the floor, no Thwomps crashing down from the ceiling, no Spiky Thwomps crashing up from the floor. Just an empty room with a fat pink blob waiting for them.
Now hold on a second, where had Ludwig seen this fellow before? Could it be? It was Ludwig’s old acquaintance, Beef. This might be fun after all~.

“Did you miss me~?” Ludwig taunted in satisfaction that Beef had so obviously not forgotten last time.

(IaRlob4wp_1d20+1 Ludwig's Dodge of Introduction Punch. Failurel; Takes 10% Damage.)

“...So you didn't. Almost hurts my feelings.” He grunted, taking the Beefy fist.
“I won’t miss you either.” He promised before taking a deep breath and blowing fire into Beef’s face.

"Chained down? Oh no no no! That'd be wildly impractical for training... for now. That there is a special training accessory set! You try to break the training regiment and I get to do a punishment to discourage you, isn't that fun~?" the man cheerfully said as he walked closer... Apparently unafraid of a small turtle dragon for whatever reason. "As for what I want? Nothing~! Everything I do is for my employers! I work for a group of specialist monsters to suit our client's every need afterall! As for the rest of the questions... Well, I think talking time is cutting into exercise time~! Let's see if you can walk and talk!" he declared, shouting into his headset, to which the conveyor belt started whirring to life, a mechanical claw removed the cloth at the end, revealing a bed of rotating spikes.

"Now let's get to it~! Ask what you want but be careful not to run out of breath! We can't afford to take this slow!" he declared before running alongside the conveyor belt.

"O-oh. Right, of course Ludwig sir! So sorry!... Wait, you're the leader? I thought Jr was the next in line?" Seriri relented. Ludwig getting decked like that did not really help her much either. Meanwhile Beefy was under heat asthe fire breath hit him, causing him to sweat a bit from the heat before feeling something land on his head. It seemed to not make him flinch at all as he raised an arm up to grab Ludwig and slam him into the ground and toss him away with an unamused look.

(Ludwig! Beef is going for the grab and slam on you! Roll a 12 or higher or take 25% damage with a 50% chance of paralysis)

"Mission's over already? Dang I thought I would get here just in time for some fun too!" a familiar voice of a mad koopa introduced, drawing Beef's attention as Iggy blasted through the doors on top of a large Bullet Bill, blasting Beef with a ton of force, nearly toppling him in the process to which Iggy jumped backwards off the explosion onto his feet and causing Seriri to flinch at the unexpected arrival and explosion. "Woo! I always wanted to try that! Okay you guys, take five!" he called out to some Monty Moles carrying a large Bullet Bill Blaster who just pulled out some coffee and newspapers. "Oh, and Ludwig, don't tell Roy I was taking from his unit again. Riding a bullet Bill into battle just seemed like too much fun to not do!"

(Beef takes 30% damage from Iggy's ambush bill technique)

"What are you doing here, Iggy? I thought you were staying behind?" Seriri asked after recovering from the initial shock. "Oh, well yes but I guess I got bored and I really wanted an excuse to ride a bullet bill," he explained... rather matter of factly. "... Okay?"

"WHAT IS WITH ALL THE NOISE IN HERE BEEF?! We are not suppose to even be having guests-" a flying figure flown into the room from a secret door on the left side that closed after her before noticing the group. "You two? That stupid mercenary took way too long to setup. WILL YOU JUST LEAVE?!" Kaley called out with a powerful screech.

(Everyone, roll a 12 or higher in INT to resist Kaley's screech or take 10% damage)

"Ow, do you really need to be so loud? I just recovered from the first boom!" Iggy called out. Seriri also seems to be in a bit of pain... But she had to keep fighting. It was more certain Ludwig was here now afterall. With this in mind she gave a screech of her own... Or rather extremely terrible singing taught to her by Harpy.

p_1d20+4(Harpy's Song on Beef and Kaley. Deals 18% damage and a 50% chance to Mind Melt)

Beef and Iggy both hold their ears at the dreadful song, although Kaley seemed less bothered. "My entrance may of been a mistake. My head is ringing with all this noise..." he said, although Beef and Kaley actually looked hurt by the bad song. In fact they almost seemed dizzied by it. "Oh, sorry, let me try another song then," she then attempted the Siren's Song, the polar opposite of the other one, being rather beautiful, Beef and Kaley seemed paticularly entranced by it. "Could your friend please keep down so we can find our friend?" she asked Beef. Kaley looked like she was about to retort before getting side punched by Beef. "What are you doing?!"

"Punishment? What kind of- Whoa!" Jr started to question until he felt the conveyer belt beneath him start moving. It didn't really register until he looked behind him toward where this conveyer was headed. "WHOA, hey! What's the big idea?" Jr started yelling, before moving to book it in the other direction. 

1wx1lE8Pp_1d20+1 (Jr's attempt to jog: Success!)

Now moving at a brisk pace, Jr jogged at the speed of the conveyer belt, trying his hardest not to trip, and faced Max Flexer again. This guy's cheering was going to give him a headache right quick. Perhaps he would stop if Jr asked him something. trying to space his questions between gasps for air. Jr didn't exercise much in the first place, so being forced to do something like this so quickly would take a bit to get used to.

"You said everything you did was for your employer. Who hired you?" Jr asked, pausing to breathe as he continued jogging. At least he was getting a workout, right? "And what do they want from me, or my family?" There had to be a reason behind all this effort. If they just wanted to give Jr a workout, why all the deadly parts? They seemed....very unnecessary as a motivational tool.

“Wer ist… Iggy?!” Ludwig did a take upon popping his head back out of his shell. “Well look who decided to be useful after all.” He rolled his eyes as he delivered his backhanded complimented. “It’s about time you came to play~.”

Ludwig cocked an eyebrow not at Seriri’s singing which was muffled by his fingers, but by its effects on Kaley and Beef. She might prove to be of use to him after all...

"Come on, move those stubby legs to start trimming that fit! Left, Right, Left, Right, Left, Right! In no time you will start to feel slim!" he declared, jumping up and down as he cheered Jr on. Despite being the one that put him in this predicament to begin with. "Who hired me... hm?" He stopped to ponder Jr's question for a bit before shrugging. "Not sure I should be giving my employer's out that freely. As for what they want..." He raised an arm to his chin and tapped it for a second before nodding.

"Okay, sure, what's the harm~! They really don't seem to like what you and your family did to them on your last encounter so I am here to help with revenge.

"Like I'd miss a party like this if I could help it~. You know me better than that!" Iggy replies cheerfully... even though his earholes were still ringing. Seriri honestly was just glad to have the help even if it seemed a little... strange. Regardless Iggy stepped forward.

A green fireball flung itself at the disoriented hunk of meat before Beef sidestepped it. Not ready for the followup, however, Iggy ran forward, swinging his wand up to cause a magic eruption to burst from the ground, burning the lug in more ways than one. "Alright, you're up fishgirl!

She asked the criminal who blinked before giving a flustered "Are you stupid or something?! No!"

MMm2Zi16p_1d20+1 (Jr's Running Check: Success!)

As the treadmill started to speed up, Jr started to pick up the pace. As much as he didn't want to listen to this quack, there were a number of very sharp implements at the end of this treadmill, and he'd rather not get impaled! He managed to keep up with the treadmill for now, but he didn't know how long he could keep this up. Trying to distract himself, Jr listened more to what Flexer had to say.

"A revenge plot?" Jr started mentally going over people he had a bad relationship with. He wasn't coming up with much, since everyone he could think of was in the Life Sphere already. No one would dare go after him if it meant upsetting Papa. Still, he felt like there was an important person that he was forgetting about. Probably wasn't important. Besides, it's not like he could think all to hard right now with spinning spikes of doom threatening to chop the spikes off his shell.

Things got even more confusing when Flexer told him the first part of his employers plan. It barely even made sense! "What kind of plan is that supposed to be? I mean I know I've been trying to lose weight for a while, but what kind of revenge plot starts with giving me something I want?"

“Knowing you better, I’d anticipate you to crash it.” Ludwig snickered at Iggy’s misplaced heroism. “And who authorized you to give orders?” He growled to deaf ears as Seriri already did what Iggy said. How did she obey Him with so much less resistance? This wasn’t fair!

“What you mistake to be resolve and loyalty to your mission, we shall prove to be stupidity and hubris soon enough!” Ludwig dismissed at Kale’s refusal to disclose the prince’s location.
Strategically retreating into his shell, Ludwig rolled out of the way of Kale's spherical sound projectiles.

(RqY2XDA1p_1d20+2 Ludwig's Dodge of Awe Screamer. Success!)

But even inside the shell, one of such highly trained ears as Ludwig needed to brace his razor sharp mind as well against Kale’s disruptive discord.

(p_1d20+2 Ludwig's Resistance of Discord. Success!)
Using the momentum built up in his previous evasion, Ludwig barreled his whirling fortress toward Kale in a bid to to pin her down into an optimal target zone at which he could aim upon popping out of his shell and slamming back down onto her.

“We have ways of making you…sing.” Ludwig sneered sinister as he drew his wand. “A lullaby said you, Iggy?” He tapped it to his chin before activating it with a wave in the air and lowering it. From the very ether itself mysterious music began to play.

♪“You need another story
Something to get off your chest
Your life gets kind of boring
Need something that you can confess”♪
Ludwig began to sing, his voice magically augmented into a dreamy rock star octave as his eyes began to swirl hypnotically.

♪“Till all your sleeves are stained red
From all the truth that you've said
Come by it honestly you swear
Thought I saw you wink, no, you've been on the brink, so”♪

(p_1d20 Ludwig's Koopa Symphony @ Kaley; inflicts Infatuation status.)

♪“Tell you what I want to hear
Something that'll like those ears
Sick of all the insincere
So you're gonna give all your secrets away
This time
Don't need another perfect lie
Don't care if critics never jump in line
You’re Gonna give all my secrets away”♪

Once his seductive spell was properly cast, hopelessly fallen for him, Kale shall do as he commands and reveal Bowser Jr.’s location to them.

[Seriri]

The fitness instructor pulled out a board and pen as he looked down a list of people he was supposed to help in ridiculous revenge plots. "... Oh, of course, silly me. It's time for the next step. Come on, it's time to get that back a moving too!" the man declared as he pulled the sheet off a device that looked like a giant jar with a metal covering. A hand would suddenly drop from the ceiling to scoop Jr up and off the treadmill before dropping him into the jar. It looked nearly impossible to jump out and it was heavier and sturdier than it looked.

"You see, this fitness plan is to die for! I make you work a sweat and the energy you help generate is being added to the boss's secret weapon! So keep those outputs a coming! The longer you survive the more power we'll have! Yeah yeah yeah!" he declares as he jumps up and down. He then pressed another button and the metal covering above Jr shut before it would start descending upon him. "Let's see how many measures of force it takes to crack a Koopa Shell! Better get lifting~!" he declares as the pressure was not too bad yet.

(Jr! Max Flexer has initiated the Lifting Chamber of Doom! Roll a STR check of 12 or higher, failure will result in 15% damage)

Meanwhile, Kaley got whacked by a shell before she evaded Ludwig's bomber... However she was unable to resist the grapple. She was pulled towards Ludwig and held with a glare at him as he... sang her a song. She raised a brow at his performance. She seemed.. more flustered and upset than infatuated with his voice.

(Since Kaley is still infatuated to Seriri... Ludwig's song fails)

"Like I'd tell you ANYTHING!" She gave a deafening scream to Ludwig's Face in an attempt to make him let go.

(Ludwig! Kaley is using her Super Sonic Scream on you! Roll a 14 or higher in INT to resist or take 20 damage, 5 damage reduced due to Seriri's Infatuation)

"Please tell us! Jr doesn't deserve whatever is going on in there..." Seriri pleaded to which Kaley gave her a... hesitant look. Before she nodded. "Fine, I'll take you there... You're at least better than this pompous airbag," she retorted before moving to enter a password into the wall, it beginning to slide open to.... reveal a room full of exercise themed death traps... with a man looking to Jr. "Huh, guess she thinks the mermaid is more a looker than you, eh, Ludwig?" Iggy nudged Ludwig as he went to follow Seriri.

"Jr!" she called before she got smacked by an explosive object to the face, falling down. "Kaley! Beef! Why did you just let them in here like that?!" A man named Dieter would walk out from the corner. "Well, Well, well, if it isn't Ludwig Von Koopa and Iggy Koopa. Been a while, hasn't it?" he asked. "Yep, sure has! Now, if you'll give us your secret recipe and the prince, we'll beat you up and be on our way," the Koopa Mad Scientist stated as Seriri recovered.

"... How about instead I say... auf wiedersehen. Dieter, Beef! It is time for the new and improved Malatone X!" he declared before Beef and Kaley would make a break for Dieter and fuse together in the Bestest Fitness Friend. The monstroisity giving a cry as a shadow of Bowser Jr would manifest. The copy of Jr would give a scream at Ludwig, attempting to make him small... somehow. Meanwhile Iggy would suddenly make a bolt for the other side of the room. "You guys handle this one, I got something to take care of!" he declared before he ran towards Jr and Max Flexer.

(Ludwig! Shadow Jr is using his Sonic Roar at you! Roll a 12 or higher in DEX to avoid getting Mini Status)
