==Act 1==
===Scene 1: I Just Haven't Met You Yet===
The story begins with black, before fading into a beautiful view of the cosmos, with stars spread out to complete the perspective.
Narrator: Space... a spectacular sight to see.
We get a few shots of comets, asteroids, and planets as the unnamed narrator continues his introductory monologue.
Narrator: Stars, glistening in the cosmic depths between worlds, giving light and warmth to what would otherwise be a cold and dark void of nothingness... as planets dance around them in an almost infinite waltz, with no two being exactly alike... that is the beauty of the universe. And the best part is... we might not be alone.
Starships and space stations can be seen soaring through the stars, each looking wildly different from the last.
Narrator: No one truly knows how the universe began, or how it will end. But what we do know... is that it is constantly growing and changing. We never know what else could be out there... and what if I told you... that our universe may not be the only one?
Suddenly, a burst of light can be seen in the distance, as beams of energy flash past the starships towards some other realm.
Narrator: Beyond the universe we know and love, there could be hundreds of thousands, even millions of others... parallel timelines... alternate dimensions... even other realms entirely, worlds that are vastly different from our own. How could the laws of physics, gravity, and time be different in those realms? Does everything we say, do, or think spawn another possibility? Just what exactly are these worlds like?
As the narrator goes on, we are suddenly pulled through what appears to be the space-time continuum, with countless realms and timelines passing by...
Narrator: This story, and several others that will come after it, is about exploring those possibilities... to peek into our wildest dreams and worst nightmares, to dive deep into our desires, hopes, and interests... to show you just how much the people of these expansive realities might have in common, without even realizing it...
We zoom in on a familiar world, almost mushroomy in appearance.
Narrator: And it all begins right here!
The shot quickly jumps to the ringing of an alarm clock in the shape of a red mushroom, with its innocent elliptical eyes lighting up as the ringing continues.
8 AM.
A man pushes down on the mushroom's cap, deactivating the alarm. He swiftly jumps out of bed -- quite literally. After all, for a man with the nickname "Jumpman", what else can he do in his early morning excitement?
Mario: WAHOO!! It's-a vacation time!
Cue song: "Haven't Met You Yet", by Michael Buble.
Mario puts on his classic red shirt and blue overalls, shining his boots and putting on his trademark cap for the finishing touch, with the bright red "M" sticking out so his fans will recognize him right away.
His green-clad younger brother, Luigi, is shown packing their suitcases.
Mario: You're packing your Poltergust?
Luigi: Yes, sir! Ghosts could be anywhere! We've gotta be ready!
Mario: Are you sure we NEED it?
Luigi: Ey, what can I say? When there's a will, there's a wisp!
Mario: That's... not how that saying goes--
Luigi: Ah, don't worry about it, bro. I know we're supposed to be goin' on a vacation! I won't take it TOO seriously... at least I hope so...
They bring their luggage out to their personal go-kart with dual seats, and Mario starts the engine so they can head out to Peach's Castle.
Mario: Hopefully the princess ain't in much trouble with Bowser again.
Luigi: Bro, you do remember Bowser ended up stuck in space last time you battled him, right?
Mario: Yeah, I guess you're right... when was that again? We've had so many adventures I can't-a put my finger on just one...
Luigi: Relax, Mario! The princess'll be fine! Look, see? There she is outside!
They pull up in front of the castle, with princesses Peach and Daisy waiting for them in their own kart.
Peach: Hey, Mario! Wanna race to the airport?
Mario: You bet! Let's-a go!
Daisy: You better hope that kart doesn't run out of gas!
Luigi: Ah, no, honey! We've been keepin' this baby loaded up since the Double Dash tournament!
Daisy: What happened to your bikes, then?
Luigi: Still in the garage!
Daisy: Collecting dust? (chuckles as she and Peach pull ahead)
Mario: Hey, nobody said you could start yet!
Peach: Sorry, Mario! No Lakitu, no countdown!
Daisy: Keep up, shroomy boys!
Mario hits the gas with a smile, and the Mario Bros.' kart boosts forward at full speed to catch up to the princesses.
Luigi: H-how did you know when to start for the quick boost??
Mario: Sometimes you just gotta visualize the 2, y'know?
Luigi: Good thinking!
As they proceed through their race, a lone Star Sprite watches them laugh and have fun, with a Bonneter and a female Goomba hanging out with her.
Starlow: I think I see a wild journey ahead of them...
Cappy: Should we join 'em?
Goombella: ...definitely.
They follow the Mario Bros. and the princesses towards Sunshine Airport, where their plane will lift off for their vacation spot...
Eventually, as the background song ends, the brothers and their friends have all gotten together on their plane.
Pilot: Hello there, everyone! I hope you're all having a safe and comfortable ride to our destination, Sarasaland!
Peach: This'll be fun, I won't deny it, but... why Sarasaland?
Mario: Well, things didn't go as planned when we went to Dinosaur Land and Isle Delfino because Bowser was causing trouble there...
Daisy: You're STILL worried about Bowser? He could be in another dimension for all we know! Just relax!
Mario: Well, I know that, but I still think something COULD go wrong... perhaps a teeny tiny bit disastrous...?
Luigi: Could be worse! It's not like an old rival is gonna come up to us and ask for some spare cash--
Sonic: Hey, can I get some spare cash?
They stare in shock as the Blue Blur himself, Sonic the Hedgehog, stands beside them with his blue messenger bag strapped across his arm.
Daisy: Well, this is awkward...
Sonic: Look, I spent a lot of money just to get here and I'm hungry. I wanna get a chili dog or something.
Starlow: Aren't chili dogs made from the meat of pigs--?
Sonic: A VEGETARIAN chili dog. Geez, way to assume I eat animals... I don't break animals out of robotic shells just to eat 'em.
Mario: Why are you here?
Sonic: Can I just get some coins already??
Peach: OK, here. (she hands him a set of Mushroom Kingdom coins) That should be enough to hold you for the rest of the ride.
Sonic: Uh... kinda heavy, but it'll do. (he walks back to his seat, struggling to balance the stack of coins)
Daisy: Don't throw 'em at anybody!
Mario: What if someone attacks him? Or what if he gets a little too crazy and HE attacks someone?
Luigi: Bro, just calm down...
Mario: Sorry, but I just can't entirely trust him... what if he brought someone else?
An orange animal in blue shorts comes out, inspecting a common red berry fed to Yoshis. He puts it into his mouth whole, but immediately spits it out, dissatisfied by its unfamiliar taste.
Crash Bandicoot: Woah...
Mario: (facepalming, sighs) Oh boy...
Peach: That's strange... why are they BOTH here?
Daisy: First Sonic, then that other guy.
Luigi: Y'mean Crash? Yeah, he's a rowdy one... but not the kinda guy who would compete in the Olympics.
Goombella: Wasn't he just chillin' out for a while? We haven't heard much about him in what feels like years.
Mario: What I want to know is why they're on this plane when we're just-a trying to get to Sarasaland for our vacation...
Peach: It might just be personal matters. Don't think about it too much.
Cappy: Personal matters like chili dogs and fruit...?
Daisy: Maybe they're coming for the cuisine! Trust me, Sarasaland isn't ALL sand and pyramids. We've got some really good berries over there, too!
Peach: Yeah! I remember doing research and finding out Double Cherries were first grown there.
Daisy: Nah, that's just a rumor. They were imported from the Sprixie Kingdom.
Mario: But what would Sonic and Crash, of all people, want with Double Cherries?
Goombella: Well, Sonic's gotta do his time attack somehow, right? He's always trying to beat his own records.
Cappy: And that Crash guy is... probably doing it just because he wants to. I mean, look at him. He's looking around at everything like a Chain Chomp.
Even as they keep debating, Starlow is staring out the window...
Starlow: Um, guys? You should probably see this...
Mario: What is it?
Mario and his friends lean closer to the window, trying to get a good look. They are devastated to see the sight of not only Bowser's massive airship, but a large fleet of metallic battleships led by one with egg-shaped engines, and a menacing superweapon tipped with a megalaser that could potentially do some serious damage...
Mario: Oh, no...
