MARIO GEAR SOLID 
 
 ORIGINAL SCRIPT 
 
 BY HIDEO KOJIMA 
 
 *The scene opens with lightning crashing overhead as a grimacing, red-clad figure leaps upon a crumbling brick ledge with the help of his cybernetically enhanced boots. He lands perfectly on the head of a Koopa Troopa, crushing it in a burst of thick blood that stains the camera. * 
 
 MARIO: Kept you a-waiting, eh? 
 
 LUIGI, OVER COMMUNICATOR: Solid Koop, are you in-a position? 
 
 MARIO: Yes. The area seems to be secure. 
 
 LUIGI: Good. We have-a supplied you with a dead drop. It contains a prototype weapon we've been working on. Get over there and retrieve it. 
 
 *After some gameplay, MARIO retrieves the weapon: a large, minigun-like device with a tank of red flower buds in the back* 
 
 LUIGI: Good you have retrieved it. It harnesses the properties of an incendiary plant native to the area to essentially launch fireballs at a high rate of fire. They should burn through anything, even flesh. I'll brief you on your target. 
 
 *the HUD displays an image of BOWSER* 
 
 LUIGI: Bowser, AKA `` King Koopa'', is a bioterrorist who has abducted the crown princess of the land and twisted it into a `` mushroom kingdom'' with an army of fungally-controlled thralls. He's holed up in a castle nearby. Get in, kill him, and extract the princess. Luigi out. 
 
 *MARIO hefts his new weapon and grins at the camera* 
 
 MARIO: Heheheheheh....let's a-go..... 
 
 *After some gameplay, MARIO encounters BOWSER in some old ruins* 
 
 BOWSER: Kill me and she dies! *he motions to the Goomba thralls holding guns to the princess's head* 
 
 MARIO: Why do this, Bowser? 
 
 BOWSER: Why? Because this woman brought about peace for this nation! Peace that is harming the economy! Peace that came from giving in to our enemies! Well, no more! The Mushroom Kingdom does not negotiate with our enemies at our own expense! We crush them! It has always been our way, why try to distance ourself from it? My new, glorious Mushroom Empire will return us to those roots! 
 
 But you would n't understand. You're just another Italian soldier, killing men who stood up for what they believe! Well, you may have taken the rest of Europe! You may have taken China and Japan and the U.S and Russia, but NOT US! 
 
 *BOWSER destroys your way out and flees with the princess. The player fights off his troops and flees through a window as the building collapses, ending the prologue* 
 
 *This is obviously just a sample of what I have so far. There is much more underway, it just needs polishing. But do n't worry, I will write you gentlemen at Nintendo an epic like you've never seen before! Soon, Mario will be right at the top of sales charts! 
 
 Thank you for putting your faith in me! 
 
 Sincerely, 
 
 Hideo Kojima
