These are untold stories of Lost Love, the Missing, Fugitives, and Murder. Hello, my name is Smeags. And this is Unsolved Mysteries.
MISSING
SYNOPSIS: It all began in the winter of 1990. Mario Mario was once again saving the world from the clutches of evil King Bowser. This time, however, things were a little different than before. The mustached plumber faced a new nemesis: The Koopalings. Questions ensued: Who were these new adversaries, and where did they come from? Our research shows that these Koopalings are in fact the legitimate children of King Bowser himself. The mother, however, has yet to be identified. Why Bowser would not reveal his seven children until that point in time has not yet been confirmed.
However, Super Mario Bros. 3 wasn’t the last time we would see these mischievous children. Insiders have informed us that Larry, Wendy O., Ludwig Von, Morton Jr., Iggy, Lemmy, and Roy were seen around Dinosaur Land in the Summer of 1991, on a Safari in 1993, at Bowser’s Antarctic Castle in the Summer of 1994, and residing at Hotel Mario sometime in 1994. This, ladies and gentlemen, is where the mystery really begins.
The Koopalings during happier times.
1995 started out like any other year would, but something was different. The Koopalings were surprisingly absent from their usual duties of villainy. Not much was thought of it, as they had been on vacation three years prior, according to trusted witnesses. However, 1996 went by with no sign of the children, as did ’97 and ’98. Many were worried, what had happened to the Bowser’s Children? When asked for questioning, King Bowser declined, telling us that he had nothing to say about the subject. The absence grew as the millennium approached. In fact, it will be a full 9 years until we will see them again.
The summer of 2002 was similar to the past 8 years in that the Koopalings had yet to be seen. Yet something happened that year that would turn this mystery from a minor conundrum into a full-fledged enigma. 2002 was the appearance of Bowser Jr., the newest revealed son of King Bowser (Blood samples confirm this assumption to be correct). It was quickly announced by Bowser Jr. himself that Princess Peach was the mother. Headlines ensued, but in the end King Bowser himself revealed that she was not the legitimate mother. The search for the real mother continues to this day.
Later that year, while Mario was having his 4th annual party with friends, the party goers came across those who called themselves the Koopa Kids. Later during the party, Bowser confirmed that they were, indeed, his sons, and then proceeded to wreck the celebration. From these set of events one question remained: why was King Bowser trying to start up this new family?
The newest additions to the family.
In the fall of 2003, The Mario Bros. took on a new enemy, Cackletta, in the land of the BeanBean Kingdom. As the brothers cornered the fiend to the very ends of the land, they came upon a familiar sight in the dungeons of Bowser’s Castle: the Koopalings. It had been 9 years since their last confrontation, and so many questions needed to be asked. Where had they been? Why show up now? Who were they really working for? However, the confrontation ended as quickly as it had begun, and as The Mario Bros. once again saved the day the Koopalings disappeared into the darkness.
It has been five years since their most recent appearance. After all of the evidence was scrutinized, the only connection to Bowser’s new family and the missing Koopalings is Cackletta, the former evil sorceress of the BeanBean kingdom. Since her last defeat by the Mario Bros., we traveled to find her subordinate, Fawful. When we questioned him about the relationship between the two parties all we got was a reply about mustard, doom, and rage dressing on the salad of evil. This is where the trail ends Ladies and Gentlemen. This is where we meet our dead end. To this day, the fate of the Koopalings remains an Unsolved Mystery.
