It didn't take long for max to slowly walk down the stairs with the present marx gave him in his hands, which to him, hardly felt as if it was gonna be anything cumbersome. "Well, i uh..got it." Max says as he walks to the living room. "That's what marx gave you?" Larry wondered. "Hardly looks like it'll be anything threatening." Roy mutters while max sat on the couch. "Well...here goes..." Max says, who began to open it while bowser and Kamek watched closely, while the koopalings, junior and mike gathered around to watch.

-Bowser pov-

This better not be one of those weird ass trinkets...then again, marx went to the trouble of actually wrapping whatever's inside this box...

-Kamek pov-

Whatever game marx is playing right now, it's definitely involving max...it's strange how a teddy bear like being can have a interest in someone...perhaps there's more going on than even i am seeing?

-Max pov-

I have no idea what to expect...for me, this is basically the moment of truth for me. It hardly took long for me to rip it open, but once i saw what was inside, i immediately got annoyed.

The moment max opens the box, became the moment he sees this.

"SERIOUSLY?!" Max yells, whose sudden yell made everyone jump

"SERIOUSLY?!" Max yells, whose sudden yell made everyone jump. "What? What is it? Morton asks, "Yeah! What could it possibly be?" Lemmy asks, only to get his answer when max picks it up. "IS THAT A NERF GUN?!" Junior yells out, while bowser looked baffled and annoyed, ludwig facepalms, roy and morton looked agitated, wendy rolls her eyes, larry snickers, lemmy became very curious, and mike chuckles. "Guys, marx is a..teddy bear..thing. What did you expect?" Mike asks them. "I was expecting..-" Max began to say, before he sees a letter in box. "Huh..there's a letter in here." Max says before picking it up. "What could marx possibly have to say about this? Ludwig asks. "Well, i guess we're about to find out." Morton replies as max began to read it.

-Bowser pov-

A NERF GUN?! Just what game is marx playing? Then again, he did leave a letter inside the box, so it better be good..especially since it looks like it has been colored in a completely weird way.

"To max:

Don't be fooled by the fact that this is a $5 nerf gun with a scope attached to it. It's actually your most deadly weapon. You see, in your hands, it is a weapon made to use your aura as bullets. In fact, if you really want to use bulets, just get yourself some nerf darts! Obviously, it can hold six at a time, and by pulling back the hammer thing you see on the back of it, watch it fly...a half mile. Nerf darts in your hands become mini rockets that can bring an explosive surprise, which by the way, even without the darts, each shot can go the same distance while using the scope.
