Super Mario RPG: Legend of the Seven Stars
XI - Koopa Troops
(Mario and Mallow continue their journey by going to Rose Town first. On their way, they see Bowser and his troops assembled just before reaching the town. The two conceal themselves in a bush to avoid commotion.)
Bowser: All right people! Form ranks!
Attention, Shelled warriors!
(All three units arrange themselves according to their formation. The Terrapin unit leader shows his fighting stance.)
Bowser: ...Hooded sorcerers...
(The Magikoopa unit leader conjures a fireball.)
Bowser: And last, but not least, groundling Goombas!
(The Goomba unit leader concentrates and unleashes his aura.)
Bowser: This is our finest moment! The Koopa Troop is invincible! We shall be victorious! The bridge is down, but we'll find a way to get back in! Move out, on the double!
(Bowser and his Koopa Troops march proudly to the exit.)
Mallow: Bowser and his troops must be on their way to Bowser's Keep. Come on! Rose Town is just up ahead.
XII - Famous Visitor
(Upon arriving in Rose Town, Mario and Mallow are constantly bombarded by arrows thrown somewhere from the town’s outskirts. Those who were hit by these arrows were temporarily paralyzed. The two seek shelter and finally find a refuge in Rose Town’s inn. Inside, the son of the innkeeper is playing his action figures.)
Gaz: Toadstool Doll: Mario, HELP!!
Bowser Doll: Mwa ha ha...hey Mario! I'll be taking care of Princess Toadstool now.
Mario Doll: Boing, boing... SUPER JUMP ATTACK!!
(The Mario doll use his Super Jump but Bowser doll repels his attack and throw him out.)
Bowser Doll: Guwa ha! You think you can hurt me with your childish pranks?!
Attention, Toadstool! You're comin' with ME! Zip your lip!
Toadstool Doll: HELP!!! HAAALP!!! Somebody, please HELP me!!! HAAAAL......
(The kid notices that the real Mario is watching him. To his surprise he calls his mother’s attention.)
Gaz: Oh my gosh! It's......Ma...Ma......
Mom! Mom, look, we have a... GUEST!
Mom: Yes, dear, I hear you... Hello th...ere... Why...aren't you Mario!
(Mario nods assent.)
Gaz: For real?!
Well, you have the hat... AND the funky 'stache...! Are you really Mario?!
Mario: You betcha!
How do I know it's you? You might just be pulling my leg! Show me! PROVE IT!
XII.A- Wrong Guy Kid
Mario: Wrong number!
Gaz: Awwww, you're a fake. Well, you'll have to do... Let's play my... "Geno" game!
XII.B - It’s the Real Me
(Mario uses his Super Jump.)
Gaz: All right!!
Hey Mario, wanna play with me? I'm playing "Save the world!"
Mom: Now, Gaz...! Mario might be a little tired, dear.
Gaz: Awwww, come on, mom! YOU never play with me!... It's no fun playing alone.
Mom: Oh dear...Mario, I hate to ask, but... Could you play with Gaz for a little while?
(Mario accepts the request of Gaz’s mother.)
Gaz: YES!! "Mario" just bought the farm, so um... you can be "Bowser"...
I'll be "Geno," okay?
Ready? Let's play from where I left off!
All set?
(A story battle starts.)
Gaz: Ooh, scary! But just watch ME!
(Gaz brings out his Geno doll.)
Gaz: Geno Doll: Better watch out, Bowser, cause Geno's gonna blow you away! TAKE THIS!
(Geno doll attacks Browser doll.)
Gaz: Geno Doll: Your turn, Bowser!
(Bowser doll makes his attack.)
Gaz: Geno Doll: Owwww...Oh no, if he keeps this up, I'm finished! All right, you
asked for it!
The super duper... Custom, patented, one and only... SHOOTING STAR SHOT!!
Geno doll shoots a bullet which Browser doll easily evaded and ended on Mario doll.
Gaz: Oops... I...uh...I think I...missed.
Mom: Oh dear, oh my! Mario, are you all right?
(Mario was very tired and suddenly passed out. Later that night, a flash of star enters the Geno doll owned by Gaz. The next day…)
Gaz: Mom! You'll never believe what I just saw...
It was amazing, mom! I just saw Geno walk into the forest! Neat, huh?
Mom: Yes, dear. That's nice, dear... And isn't Geno the one who broke my lamp the other day?
Gaz: Awww, ma, that was just, well, you know... Now THIS WAS REAL! I SWEAR, Mom, REALLY! It's true! I SAW HIM outside!
Mom: All right, Gaz, let's hear it! What are you trying to get out of this time, hmmm?
Gaz: Mom, I didn't DO anything. I really, TRULY saw Geno walking into the forest!
(Mario heard the conversation and heads out to investigate the matter himself.)
XIII - Sentient Doll
(Mario and Mallow follow the tracks of the mysterious figure in Forest of Maze. They delve deeper in the forest passing through a labyrinth of crossroads and stumps that lead to underground caverns. Later, they cope up with the guy, who seems to be fighting with one of Smithy’s henchmen and its minions.)
Bowyer: 997! 998! 999! 1000! Nya ha ha! 1000 arrows!
For cover they run, nya! FUN this is, yes. Nya! Another 1000 will I shoot!
(Mario and Mallow hid themselves not far from them.)
Mallow: Mario, who IS that guy? He must be the one shooting arrows at Rose Town!
Bowyer: Happy I am, nya! Look... LOOK at their expressions when freeze they do!
Flunkies: Woo hoo! They're standing like statues!
Bowyer: Nya! More practice do I need!
Mallow: Oh no! He's not stopping! We've got to do something!
(Mario is about to approach the enemy but...)
Mallow: Who do you think you are, Bruce Lee? You can't just go in there with your fists flying!
There're too many of 'em. We'll be creamed!
Oh no, someone's coming! Let's hide and see if we can learn anything.
(They cover themselves behind the stump. Another minion arrives having the green Star Piece.)
Aero: Look what I found, Bowyer!
Bowyer: What? WHAT? Disturb me you must not! Practicing, I am.
More arrows must I shoot! More statues must I make, nya!
???: Stop!
Hold it right there! You don't know what you're doing. RETURN that star to me!
Bowyer: Gnya, NYA!? A stranger you are... and strange looking at that!
Teach you, we must, who's in charge!
(The battle starts.)
Bowyer: Nya?! And who might you be?
???: I serve...a higher authority...
That Star Piece belongs to everyone. You can't keep it.
Bowyer: Nya! NYA! Angry I am!
Nya! A lesson I will teach you!
(Bowyer fires arrows once more.)
???: Hey! Chill out!
(Mario and Mallow hold their grounds, watching how things will turn out.)
Mallow: Mario! It's dangerous out there!
You're gonna help, huh? Whack that weirdo... Save the guy in blue... Me too! I will do what I can! But...from over here!
(Although they’re trying not to be conspicuous, Mario and Mallow’s luck suddenly turned bad. Arrows from Bowyer showers on them from above. They run to avoid from getting hit.)
Mallow: I'm NOT afraid. And I'm NOT gonna cry!
Yeouch!
(One of the arrows hit Mallow, thus he stumbles and flip. Mario keeps running toward Bowyer and the mysterious guy.)
???: Stop it! That's enough.
(The mysterious guy unleashes an uppercut on Bowyer.)
Bowyer: Gunya! Nya!!
Strong you are. But stronger am I! Hurt you, I will!
So long, nya!! Part, now, we must!
Nya nya NYA!!
(Bowyer fires an arrow on the mysterious guy, which Mario deflected in time.)
???: Thanks for the help! But... who are you?
(Mallow catches up with them.)
Mallow: Mario! You just... DITCHED me back there!
Huh? Don't I know you? You look... familiar!
???: So! You're THE Mario! WE know about you!
Bowyer: Knock knock! Nya! Insulted, I am!
(Mario and Mallow helps the mysterious guy in battle.)
Bowyer: NYAAA!! Now 3 against one! Nyat FAIR! Fix it, I will, nya! Shoot an arrow, I shall. When a target it hits, that Button... LOCKED!
(After exchanging blows from both sides, Mario’s party wins.)
???: Thanks for the help. You really got me out of a jam.
Why are you staring at me? You know I'm more than just a doll, don't you?
Have you guessed the truth? I'm a visitor from above, and this is a form I'm borrowing briefly.
Mallow: You mean, like, from the sky or something?
???: Higher than that, I'm afraid! Do you two know anything about the "Star Road"?
(Both Mario and Mallow have no idea.)
Completely in the dark, eh? Well, it's a big mess up there right now, and it concerns you too!
Let me explain...
You've heard of wishing upon a shooting star?
At the "Star Road", your wish is transformed into a star. When it's granted, it then turns into a shooting star and falls down to earth.
So you see, the Star Road plays an integral role in granting wishes. But ever since a sword destroyed the "Star Road", everything's come to a halt. No stars have been made since. The way things stand, yours is a world where wishes can't come true anymore.
Mallow: Are you saying THIS star is a part of your "Starway"?
???: That's "STAR ROAD", my fluffy little friend ...
Yes, that star is a broken piece of the Star Road.
I'm here to find them all, and repair the Star Road.
The broken Star Pieces... There are 7 altogether.
For peace to return... we must get rid of Smithy, find the Star Pieces, and repair the Star Road...
I'm "[heart][note]!?", but it's hard to pronounce so... Call me "Geno", after the doll.
I chose him because he looked the strongest out of all the dolls.
Now grab the star, Mario!
(Mario obtained the second Star Piece.)
Geno: Come on! Let's get this show on the road.
Narration: "Geno", who is searching for the pieces of the Star Road, joins Mario and Mallow. Things are definitely looking up!
(Behind one of the stump not far from the party is an eavesdropper.)
Aero: Ooh, I heard everything! Who would have known that star was so important?
I've got to inform Smithy!
Narration; The secret to the shooting stars has been unraveled. Find the Star Pieces, and bring peace back to Mario's world.
(Mario’s party returns to Rose Town Inn.)
Gaz: Geno! You came back! Mommy!
SEE, Mom? THIS is the Geno I was talking about!
Mom: My, my, what a fabulous costume! It must be kind of hot for the person wearing it, though.
Gaz: Awww, forget it, mom. All right, Geno, let's play!
Geno: How I wish I could! But Mario and I must leave now to find...
... the missing Star Pieces ...
Gaz: Star Pieces? You mean like shooting stars? What for?
Geno: Well... How can I explain this...
Well Gaz,... it's like this...
(They demonstrate the whole story to them.)
This is how it used to be, but now...it's like... THIS! Do you get it?
Gaz: Uh uh... NOPE! You lost me.
Geno: Well, let's just say that if things stay the way they are, your wishes will never come true.
Gaz: WHAT?! So you mean even if I grow up, I won't ever be strong and cool like you?!
Geno: No one's wishes will come true until the Star Pieces are found and the Star Road repaired. Which is why I have chosen to join these two in order to find the missing Star Pieces.
Gaz: So that's it......! Well, Mario needs all the help he can get!
Geno, I have a lot of dreams! Please, go fix the Star Road and make sure they all come true!
Geno: That's a promise!
Gaz: COOL!!
Oh, wait! Wait a minute! This is yours, Geno, so take it along with you.
(Gaz handed to Geno the Finger Shot.)
Geno: Thanks for being such a good sport, Gaz. I'll see you when I get back.
XIV - Delving the Mines
(Mario’s party arrives in Moleville Town. At the back of the town, Bowser and his Koopa Troops assemble for their preemptive attack.)
Goomba: Bowser, most of our allies have run off! What will we do?
Magikoopa: We've only had experience fighting Mario. These new guys are too much!
Bowser: Shut up, all of you!
I'm the biggest, baddest brute around, and don't you forget it. But if Mario hears that I've been kicked out of my own castle...
My reputation will be ruined! Even I have an image to keep up you know! Let's show 'em who's the boss around here.
(Bowser and his Koopa Troops take their leave. Meanwhile, Mario’s party enters the Moleville Mines.)
Ma'Mole: Oh dear! I sure hope the kids are OK...
Miner B: "I know how you're feelin' but mopin' 'round here ain't gonna help a thing!"
(Ma'Mole leaves the place.)
Miner 2: That's what I TOLD her, but I don't know if I'd be feelin' any different if I was her!
Miner A: We're gettin' nowhere FAST! We'll never reach the kids at this rate!
Miner B: See that up there? That's the old entrance to the mines...
Miner A: ... But we can't reach it anymore!
Miner B: If only that fellow...uh... Mario were here! He could reach that in a heart beat!
Miner A: What..?! Well speak o' the devil!
Miner B: Well, I'll be a Goomba's uncle!! If it ain't HIM in the flesh! Mario, you're a life saver!
Miners: Mario, have you heard the news?
Mario: News? What news?
Miner A: Well, Dyna took her l'il brother into the mines so they could play...
And then, a HUGE star crashed into the mountain causing a big cave-in! Now they're trapped inside.
And now, their daddy, who went lookin' for 'em, is trapped, too!
Mario, will you help rescue them?
Mario: Of course.
Thanks, Mario! Well, there's the entrance up there! Here, hop on our shoulders!
(Mario’s party starts their search. After passing some areas, they found a trampoline and jump on it. It toss them so high but they bump up on a ceiling, causing them to fall down on the ground. Suddenly, a familiar face grabs the opportunity to strike while Mario’s party was knocked down.)
Croco: Coins...Beautiful COINS! Grab the COINS!
Listen up! Let's leave dis half-wit Mario here and SPLIT! Anyone got
a beef wit' that?!
(The party chases Croco, running to and fro in the mines. Finally, they cornered the thieving reptile on a wall.)
Croco: Hoo boy! Looks like a dead end, here. But not to worry...
Heh, heh...I've got a bomb...! Never leave home without 'em.
(Croco detonates a Bob-omb on the wall. The explosion leaves a hole to pass through. He seize the opportunity and makes his escape. Mario’s party, on the other hand, continues their chase until they catch up with him.)
Croco: You want them back? You've got to take me down first!
(Croco fight his way out but Mario’s party proves to be a force to reckoned with. Later on, Croco gives up.)
Croco: Yeouch! Enough already! Here's your junk. I'm outta here!
(Croco handed all the stolen items to Mario’s party. All the coins are recovered and they picked up a Bob-omb too. After delving much deeper inside the mines, the party finds Pa’mole in the area blocked with boulders. They give him the Bob-omb.)
Pa'Mole: Seems like you found something mighty useful!
My kids, Dyna & Mite are trapped back there. Let's blast through and find 'em!
(Mario nods.)
Pa’Mole: Gwo ho! Thanks, Mario! Now, stand back and let me get things going...
(Pa'Mole detonates the Bob-omb. The explosion breaks the boulders asunder and opens the blocked passage way.)
Pa’Mole: Let's follow the tracks to the end.
What? The star? It's probably in the back. Thanks a million, Mario!
Let's mosey along now.
(Mario disagrees with Pa’Mole.)
Pa’Mole: Oh...guess you're right. I'd just be a burden on you fellas... Well then, I'm countin' on ya to find the kids, you hear?
(Mario nods.)
Pa’Mole: Well, thanks a lot, Mario! Guess I'll be goin' back to tell Ma' bout everything'...
(Pa'Mole makes his leave while Mario’s party continue their search for the children. Near the exit, the party meets Punchinello who seems to be the culprit of all the ruckus in the mines.)
Punchinello: Good day. The name's Nello...PUNCHINELLO!
Mallow: Punchinello...? Never heard of ya.
Punchinello: They say I'm a hot head, but I'll show them! You... YOU will make
me famous! So long!
(Punchinello brings out his weaker bombs, the Microbombs. Mario’s party just destroys them effortlessly.)
Punchinello: Not bad. Not bad! Now let's up the ante!
(Punchinello brings out his slightly strong bombs, the Bob-ombs. Again, the party destroys them, which makes Punchinello mad.)
Punchinello: Grrrrr... All right! It's CLOBBERING TIME!
(Punchinello brings out his powerful bombs, the Mezzo Bombs. But the party manages to destroy them all too.)
Punchinello: Arghhh!! I must be dreaming! I'm ruined! I didn't want to do this,
but now, I have NO CHOICE!!
Mallow: I think he's bluffing.
Punchinello: Simmer down, fluffy! I'm not gonna waste this on YOU. Who knows
what might happen!
Geno: Take your best shot!
(Mario nods.)
Punchinello: Enough! I've got my pride. Now you're in for it!
(Punchinello stomps the ground to release his ultimate weapon but…)
Punchinello: Huh? What the hay? Why isn't it working?
(Punchinello stomps more but nothing seems to work.)
Punchinello: Argh!!
(Suddenly, a King Bomb drops from above and squeezes him down to the ground.)
Mallow: Mario!!! If this thing explodes, we're history!!
Geno: This is a fine mess!
Mallow: Let's scram! NOW!
(Something falls on the humungous bomb that ignites it. It’s only a matter of seconds before it explodes.)
Mario’s Party: Owww!
Geno: It's gonna blow!!
Mallow: NO!!
(The King bomb explodes and the whole party is covered with ashes.)
Mallow: What on earth ...WAS THAT?!
Geno: Well, we won the battle. Now I hope we don't lose the war. Where are Dyna and the star?
(The party finds the orange Star Piece on the ground.)
Geno: I guess my question's just been answered...
Mallow: Come on Mario, let's GO!
(The Star Piece cleans them all from dirt. Mario’s party has now the third Star Piece.)
Geno: Come on! Let's get this show on the road.
(In the next room, the party finds Dyna who carries baby Mite on her back.)
Dyna: Urgh...! This...won't...budge...arghhh! I hate this stupid thing!
Help me, here! Give the mine car a push!
Yeah! A mine car ride! Yippie! This is gonna be FUN!
(Mario’s party, Dyna and Mite ride the mine cart. They pass through a maze of railways until they reached the exit. They shoot off out of the mountain towards Moleville Town. Meanwhile, Pa’Mole and Ma’Mole are waiting eagerly in their house.)
Ma'Mole: I wonder how those kids're doing? Sure wish they'd hurry home!
Pa'Mole: Settle down, woman! I asked Mario to help us out, so I reckon he'll bring 'em back when he's good 'n ready!
Ma'Mole: I just have this odd feeling that they'll be dropping in on us any
minute now...
Pa'Mole: They still gotta use the door like everyone else, Ma. Now settle down!
(The mine cart crashes on the roof of the house.)
Dyna: We're home!
Ma'Mole: Gracious! They really DID drop in on us!
Oh, my poor babies! Are you okay? Little Mite, are you hurt?!
Dyna: Naw, we're okay Ma. Isn't that right, Mite? We had FUN!
Mite: Ma-ma! Pa-pa!
Ma'Mole: He's been knocked senseless! You poor baby, you're safe now.
Dyna! Haven't I told you often enough, to never go into the mines by yourself?!
Pa'Mole: That's enough, Ma. Just be happy to have 'em back! We haven't thanked Mario proper, either.
Ma'Mole: I'm so embarrassed! Mario, we can't thank you enough for everythin'.
(Mario apologizes about what they’ve done to the roof.)
Ma’Mole: What's that? The roof, you say? Naw, that don't matter none, right Pa?
Pa'Mole: It ain't nothing at all! You just leave any repairs to me. Give me a holler if you ever need a hand with your place!
Thanks again for bringing our babies back to us.
Narration: You've found Dyna, Mite, and a Star Piece... But where is Toadstool?
XV - Damsel in Distress
(Just as Mario’s party leaves the house, they find three Snifits chasing a beetle.)
Snifit 1: Come back Mr. Beetle! Don't you want to come to Booster's and play?
Snifit 2: Yeah, don't run away! We just want to play! We'll take good care of you...
Snifit 3: Uh...like... what they said, okay, Mr. Beetle?
(The beetle flies over them and lands on Mario’s cap.)
Snifit 1: Don't you DARE touch that beetle! It's a present for Booster.
Snifit 2: That's right! Just hand it over, nice and easy.
Snifit 3: Uh... Yeah...like they said... Or we won't be your friend.
Snifit 1: Booster really, really, REALLY likes beetles! But he can't catch his own.
Snifit 2: That's right, he's busy keeping the princess from the sky entertained.
Snifit 3: So we're catching beetles for him.
Snifit 1: So hand it over!
Snifit 2: That's right!
Snifit 3: Uh... ......Pretty please?
(The beetle takes off and leaves them behind.)
Snifit 1: Oh no! It's getting away!
Snifit 2: Quick, catch it!
Snifit 3: CATCH IT!
(The Snifits take their leave. Mario’s party heads to Booster’s Tower to continue their search for the princess. At the entrance, they find Bowser enviously looking to the tower while reminiscing.)
Bowser: Booster has such a nice place... I miss my fortress...
I miss the good old days... Toadstool screaming in terror, Mario rushing in to save her...
(Bowser turns around and was surprised to see Mario eavesdropping and watching him from behind.)
Bowser: Oh geez, it's Mario!
Oops.. Okay, okay.. Calm down! Don't let him see you like this!
"Hey, how have you been?"
NO! Not like that, dummy! Wrong tone! It needs more... confidence!
(Bowser change his tone of voice from a desperate crybaby to a villainous sinister. Pretending to be tough in front of Mario’s party.)
Bowser: YOU!! What're YOU doing HERE?!
If... Toadstool were at my castle waiting to be rescued... She'd be crying like a baby!
(Meanwhile, Toadstool is held captive at the top of the tower. She is crying until she heard a familiar voice…)
Toadstool: Oh? Did I just hear some voices? It couldn't be...!
(She looks down below and finds her knight in the shining armor.)
Toadstool: I can't believe it! It's...Mario!
Mario-!!! I'm up here!
Bowser: ... That voice! It's Toadstool!
I thought she got away, but she's been stuck HERE... Mwa, ha, ha!
Well... I guess I'll be returning to my castle now.
Outta my way, shortie!
(Mario tries to open the door to the tower’s entrance but to no avail.)
Bowser: What!? You're STILL here?
That look on your face... Mwa, ha, ha! I get it now!
(Bowser, who is about to leave offers his help to Mario. He bumps the door with his spiky Koopa shell.)
Bowser: Yeah... I'm a piece of work, ain't I?!
All this power, AND looks too! I know, I know, You're thinking, "A big strong guy like him would be great to have along!" right? I'm gonna do something I may regret later...!
I'll let you join the "Koopa Troop". You can thank me later...
Narration: Mario and his friends have joined the "Koopa Troop"! (Or so they're pretending)
(Bowser joins Mario’s party.)
(Mario’s party starts to climb the tower until they meet Booster riding on a toy train.)
Booster: What's the big rush?
I'm Booster and this is my famous tower of amusement. Normally I welcome visitors to play with me and my Snifits. However, a girl fell out of the sky and into my lap, recently. Since then, I've been busy keeping her happy and entertained. I no longer have the time to play. So please enjoy yourself... At your own risk, that is!
(Booster leaves. Mario’s party continue their way up and once again Booster shows up.)
Booster: Chug-a-chug-a! Hoouuuooo! Chugga, chugga...hoooonk! This is my personal railway.
Eh...? My! It's you again! I'm amazed you made it this far. Yes, quite amazing you are! Since you're here, maybe you could clear up something for me. My bride-to-be is chanting, "MARIOHELPMEMARIOHELPME". Is she showing her happiness? Hey, wait a second! Maybe "MARIO" is another guy! What if you're this "Mario" she keeps talking about? Trying to take my bride away? Why don't you take THIS, instead!
(Booster throws bombs but the party evaded them.)
Booster: That didn't do it? Grrrr...I ran out of bombs. Well, so long!
(Mario’s party leaves the room.)
Booster: HE'S GONE?! That's not fair! I'm so hurt... I only wanted to play with him. Now, ....what expression should I be wearing at a time like this?!
(Booster cries and leaves.)
Booster: Now I remember! I should look like... THIS!
(Finally, the party reaches the tower where the princess is held captive. Mario peeks through the door.)
Toadstool: Mario! You DID come to rescue me. I was so frightened and lonely.
But now that you're here...
(Mario tries to open the door but to no avail.)
Princess: The door won't open?
I think we need Booster's spell to undo the lock on it. Oh, what should we do?
(Suddenly, a voice is heard, which is getting closer to their place.)
Booster: A...ha!
Toadstool: What should we do?!
Booster is returning, isn't he? I know! Hide somewhere and wait until he opens the door.
(Mario’s party hides in the curtains just left of the door.)
(Booster and the Snifits trio from before enter the room.)
Snifit 1: Boss, shouldn't we be concentrating on the girl?
Booster: Right! Now, about the girl in my life, who thinks I should marry her?
Well? Speak up!
Snifit 2: A wedding ceremony would make a great PARTY!
Booster: Ah, a party! We haven't had one of those.
It could be fun! So...what is a party?
Snifit 3: Well, you drink punch and eat CAKE! ...I think.
Booster: Hmmm... Drink punch...eat cake...? It sounds...complicated.
I don't know if I can muster the energy to do it... Let's walk through it once! It's wedding rehearsal time!
(They begin the wedding rehearsal. Booster assumes his role as the groom, the Snifits take the other position. One of them becomes the priest, the second as the director and the last one as Bowser’s bride.)
Snifit 1: We will now begin the ceremony. Walk down the aisle with the... (hey someone make her smile!) beautiful bride-to-be.
Booster: Wait! Mario always shows up about now to ruin the fun.
We've got to take that into consideration, you know. Someone go and get the Mario doll.
(A Snifit searches the curtain where Mario’s party is hiding.)
Snifits Trio: It isn't here.
Booster: Of course it's here! You lazy slobs couldn't find water if you were fish!
It's behind those curtains! Number one, you go and look.
XV.A - If Caught
(Mario is trying to evade being caught by the Snifits. If he is caught.)
Booster: Hey everybody! Did you see someone behind the curtains, or was it just me? How creepy! It's a pain, but I think we should check one more time.
(If Mario is caught once again.)
Booster: Well? I really think someone's behind those curtains! I think one more peek is necessary.
(If Mario is caught for the last time.)
Booster: G'na!!! It's Mario!
That's impossible! He made it past all my traps... But we're gonna trip him up!
(The battle begins.)
Booster: H...huh?!! That MUST be Mario! Let's make sure. You! Check it out!
(Booster sends in his Sniffits but they’re all beaten.)
Booster: Harumph! Just as I thought! It IS Mario. Let's...wind him up!
(Mario’s party wins.)
Booster: I'd love to stay and chat, but I've a schedule to keep. Move aside so I can open that door.
XV.B - If Not Caught
(If Mario successfully evaded the first guy.)
Snifit 1: Nope, it isn't here.
Booster: I wouldn't go and lose my Mario doll, you idiots!
Argh!! Number two, YOU look, too!
(If Mario successfully evaded both Sniffits.)
Snifit 1 & 2: Nope, it isn't here.
Booster: We can't give up! It's gotta be here somewhere.
Number 3! It's your turn!
(If Mario successfully evaded the Snifit trio.)
Booster: Wait a minute! This is better than a party! Look out, 'cause here I come!
(Booster opens the curtain where Mario is hiding.)
Booster: Wait a second!
It's right up there. I found the Mario doll! But we'll NEVER be able to reach it up there. Oh! The sorrow! What AM I gonna do...? I'm about to lose it...sniffle...
(Mario jumps and reaches the doll above the ledge. He gives it to Booster.)
Booster: Goodness! You're so kind! Thank you for getting my doll.
I'd like to reward you. Here, take this.
(Booster handed Mario the Amulet.)
Booster: May happiness follow you, wherever you go.
All right! Enough is enough... Cancel the rehearsal, we're going on with the show!
(Booster heads to the door.)
Booster: Here's the password!
(Booster inserts his password and unlocks the door that leads to Princess Toadstool. He and the Snifits leave by jumping out of the tower while carrying the princess. Mario’s party is about to chase them but two of Booster’s henchmen block their way.)
Knife Guy: Wait! You took all the trouble to come here, so... stick around!
(The battle begins.)
Knife Guy: Come on, brother! Let's thrash 'em!
Grate Guy: Whoopdy do!
(Knife Guy jumps over the top of Grate Guy to perform their special duo stance. The battle continues until the enemies give up.)
Knife Guy & Grate Guy: Yikes! They're pretty tough!
(Mario’s party jumps down to continue their chase on Booster.)
XVI - The Chase
(Booster carries Princess Toadstool who is tied on his back. He and the Snifits trio make their way to Booster Hill to runaway from Mario’s party.)
Toadstool: Please, let me go! Won't you...please? Pretty please?
Booster: Eh? Hey, where's my bride-to-be? I wanna play hide and seek, too!
Toadstool: Yuck, I don't want to play ANYTHING with you!
Booster: What a poor sport! Well, we really should hurry along. A yummy cake is waiting for us after we climb this hill! Let's GO!
Toadstool: NO! I don't want to marry you. Please let me go!
(Mario’s party arrives.)
Toadstool: Help! Mario! Please help meeeeeeee!
Booster: Uh oh! It's Mario! We didn't plan on this.
Mario, you aren't invited to our wedding! Besides, we still have to have the rehearsal!
I'll be happy to race you to the wedding hall, but...... you'd better not get in my way.
Ready?
(The chase begins. Mario tries to reach Booster and rescue the princess but the Snifits get on his way. The race continues until they end up in Marrymore.)
Raz & Raini: Haaaaaaalp!!
(Raz and Raini, a lovely couple from Mushroom Kingdom was kicked out of their wedding ceremony. Booster locked up the cathedral’s entrance in preparation to his wedding with the Princess.)
Snifit 1: Booster's wedding is in progress.
We've barricaded the door, so don't even bother trying to sneak inside. I’m not letting you in here! And you can forget about the back entrance. It's locked. (At least I THINK it is...)
(Mario’s party heads to the back door, which was left unlocked. They make their way to the entrance hall but one of the Snifit sees them.)
Snifit 1: Halt! Who goes there?
You LOOK like Mario, but the door's shut tight. Listen, Mustache, you and your overgrown turtle-friend can take a hike! Go! Scat! Make like Mario and jump outta here! GET LOST!
(Mario jumps.)
Snifit 1: Oops... We've got a problem... I'd better go tell Booster.
(The Snifit rushes through the door and bumps on it.)
Snifit 1: It won't budge.
Say, wanna help me bust this door down?!
(He ask for a help, which Mario didn’t turned down.)
On the count of 3, we'll run TOGETHER! Timing's the key!
Ready? Here we go!...
(Snifit 1 and Mario charges to the door and bring it down. However, Snifit 1 flips and stumbles on another Snifit inside the wedding hall.)
Snifit 1 & 2: Booster, Sir! Mario's here!
Booster: You clowns! You DON'T break a door down when entering a room! Shut it! SHUT IT NOW! Move it, MOVE IT!!!!
Toadstool: Mario! Is that you, Mario?! I'm in here!! Hurry! I'm scared!
(The Snifits close the door of the wedding hall.)
Snifits Trio: We're pretty sure Mr. Mustache can't break in here. But that turtle looks pretty mean. He could be trouble!
Bowser: They have no IDEA what they're up against! I'm lightning in a bottle! I'm an earthquake in a can! I'll bust this open in no time!
(Bowser charges the door but he fails to open it.)
Bowser: You don't bring too much to the party, but why don't you help me here, anyway. At least you'll feel like you did SOMETHING!
(Mario lends his help to Bowser and they charge to the door. They successfully open it but they stumble and flip with the Snifits, which eventually bump on Booster and the Princess. All the essential stuff in the wedding ceremony scattered all over the place.)
Toadstool: Owwwwww! Watch what you're doing! Great!....
Now I've dropped my shoes, my ring,.. my brooch and ...MY CROWN!!!
(Princess Toadstool cries.)
Snifits Trio: Booster, Sir!
Snifit 1: Booster, I, um...
Booster: Don't bother me now.
Okay, everyone! The bride is growing impatient! Let the wedding begin...!
(Booster turns to Princess Toadstool.)
Booster: What's this...? Water...coming from your eyes?! Are you leaking, my dear?! Tastes salty!
Snifit 2 : Booster, Sir, uh... I believe that the bride may be... uh,...Crying...
Booster: Crying? But that's what people do when they're...sad!! How DISGUSTING! That stuff may be corrosive! It tastes...like the sea! What could be making her...cry, anyway?
Snifit 3: I believe she is crying because she has dropped some of her... wedding gear.
Booster: Aha! Of course! She has dropped her gear.
But those tears will ruin the cake! Make her stop...
...before Mario breaks in!
Snifits Trio: But... Mario's ALREADY in...
Snifit 2: BOOSTER, Sir, hurry and find her things! We have to get on with the wedding! In the mean time, perhaps we can ...do something about the cake...
Booster: 10-4, good buddy.
You find her stuff... I'll move the ceremony forward. Hurry!
Snifit 2: Booster, Sir, you're supposed to be on the right. The bride should be on your left.
Booster: Just testing... Like this, right?
Snifit 3: Booster, Sir! I found the Ring!
Snifit 1: Booster! Here's the Brooch!
Snifit 2: Booster, Sir! I found the Shoes!
Booster: ...Hey wait! Wasn't there one more thing?
Snifits: ...You're right! The Crown!
Snifit 2: Ho HO! I'll look for the last one. YOU go give this to Booster.
(Got her Shoes!)
Snifit 1: Ho HO! I'll look for the last one. YOU go give this to Booster.
(Got her Brooch!)
Snifit 3: Ho HO! I'll look for the last one. YOU go give this to Booster.
(Got her Ring!)
(Mario finally found the last piece, which is the Crown, on Booster’s head. He gives all the accessories to the groom.)
Booster: HO HO! Here it is! ...HEY! You're Mario! So! You've come to crash my wedding, I presume?
Toadstool: Mario!... You're FINALLY here!
(Princess Toadstool was relieved to see Mario but when she noticed that Bowser was with him, she shriek in surprised.)
Toadstool: SHRIEK!!! What is Bowser doing HERE?
Bowser: What a waste of time! I've got bigger fish to fry...!
Toadstool: I know I'm in good hands when you're around, Mario!
Here's a kiss for my hero!
Bowser: Oh, isn't that great! You're gonna kiss HIM when I'm the one who saved your skin!
Booster: Me too! I want a reward! I'll take a kiss! Give me a KISS!!!
Toadstool: Stop it, all of you! I'm getting SO confused! Mario, let's start with you!
XVI.A - Bowser’s Kiss
(If Mario is not fast enough to collect all the items, he’ll receive a kiss from Bowser.)
Bowser: So, now Toadstool and I are allies. I'll never live this down!
XVI.B - Booster’s Kiss
(If Mario is not fast enough to collect all the items, he’ll receive a kiss from Booster.)
Booster: Aaaaaah.... I shall never forget that touch...
XVI.C - Bowser and Booster’s Kiss
(If Mario is not fast enough to collect all the items, he’ll receive a kiss from Bowser and Booster.)
Bowser and Booster: Feels like...SANDPAPER! WHAT THE!!!...
XVI.D - A Kiss From the Princess
(If Mario is not fast enough to collect all the items, he’ll receive a kiss from Princess Toadstool.)
Toadstool: Now THAT's one for the scrapbook! Come, Mario, let's get back to Mushroom Kingdom. The Chancellor's waiting for us.
(Just when they’re about to leave, Chef Torte enters the room together with his apprentice. They deliver the wedding cake he exclusively made for the occasion.)
Chef Torte: Zorry to haf kept you vaiting.
Apprentice: We've made the most AMAZING cake! You won't believe it!!
Chef Torte: Heir ist cake... But... vhere are bride und groom?
Chef Torte and Apprentice: Where...is...EVERYONE?
Apprentice: This is BIG trouble!
Chef Torte: Za bride ist LEAFING?
Apprentice: You're taking the bride...AWAY?!
Chef Torte: But... Zhere von't be anyone to eat zees cake!
Apprentice: What?! This can't be! We worked ALL DAY on it!
Chef Torte and Apprentice: YOU FOOLS!
(Enraged with how his perfect day turns out a disaster, Chef Torte and his apprentice attack Mario’s party. The party, on the other hand, direct their attacks on the wedding cake, called Bundt. After damage was done on the cake, it shakes and attacks the apprentice.)
Apprentice: Poke, poke, poke!
Chef Torte: Ouch! OUCH! Vat are you doing?!
Apprentice: Chef Torte! The cake's MOVING!
Chef Torte: Vas?! Ist NOT moving! Back to verk!
Apprentice: I KNOW it was moving!
(The cake shakes once again.)
Apprentice: Poke, poke, poke!
Chef Torte: Ouch! OUCH! Now vat?
Apprentice: Chef Torte! The cake's MOVING!
Chef Torte: Talk no more of zees!
Apprentice: No! Really, truly. Why would I lie?
Chef Torte: Because you are...IDIOT! Zee! It IS NOT moving!
(The cake shakes once more, but this time it catches the attention of Chef Torte.)
Chef Torte and Apprentice: Huh?!
Chef Torte: Zee cake's alive! RUN!!
Apprentice: See? I was RIGHT!
(The chefs run away from the cake. Bundt the wedding cake is now furious and lighted its candles. The battle continues as Mario’s party faces a new enemy. After some pie-pounding actions, Mario’s party proves to be far superior and wins.)
Snifit 1: Maybe we ought to wait.
Snifit 2: This is Booster's wedding cake!
Snifit 3: He'll have a fit if we nibble on it!
(Booster comes closer to his minions, stepping on the messed up cake.)
Booster: Hey, No.1! Where's my cake?!
Snifit 1: Booster, Sir! There's a 70% chance the object you're standing on is a cake.
Booster: ........?
THIS thing's a cake?
(Booster steps off the cake.)
Booster: Okay, everyone!! Here's the stumper. How do we eat this? I SAY we boil it! No.2, what do you say?
Snifit 2: Way too messy! Why don't you just swallow it?!
Booster: WHAT?! In one GULP? That's easier said than done!
Snifit 3: Come, Booster! You can do it! Open wide, please!
Booster: My nerves are shot. I feel like I've forgotten to tie my cord before a bungee jump!
Snifits: Here it comes!
Booster: WAIT! WAIT! Did the cake just move?
Snifits Trio: Concentrate, Sir!
Booster: This doesn't feel right.
(Booster opens his mouth while the Snifits throw the cake on him.)
Booster: Mmmmmm... Delicious! It's so good it makes me want to cry!
Snifits: Congratulations, Sir. The wedding is now officially over!!
Booster: Thanks, everyone. It's a wrap. Let's go.
(Booster and the Snifits leaves the place.)
Toadstool: That was wonderful. Mario, you're my knight in shining armor.
Finally...let's get back.
Oh, what a day...! Can you believe it?! I almost got MARRIED to that...thing!
But I...I hope someone marries me someday!
(Princess Toadstool joins Mario’s Party. The party heads out of the cathedral and finds another batch of wedding party are waiting.)
Raz: Mario! That creepy guy just left! Does that mean we can go on with our wedding?
(Mario nods assent.)
Raini: Oh, Raz! I'm so happy!
Let's get this wedding over with so we can stay in the suite, and then go on our honeymoon!
Raz: Let's do it!
All right...
Raini: You'll have to excuse us!
(Mario nods again.)
Raz: Okay, everyone! We're gonna start this from the beginning! Back inside, please!
(Finally, after the unprecedented cancellation from the ruckus caused by Booster, the wedding of Raz and Raini happens that day. Mario and his party join the wedding ceremony until it ends.)
XVI.E - If Mario Will Not Return to Mushroom Kingdom
(The party decided to go back to Mushroom Kingdom. However, if Mario refuses…)
Toadstool: Mario! The Chancellor is WAITING...! We're going back now, right?!
Mario: No
Mallow: Mario! The Chancellor must be worried sick about us. You saw him before! C'mon, let's GO.
Mario: NO!
Geno: Mario! If we don't get the Princess back, WE'LL be charged with
kidnapping! Let's go!
Mario: NO!
Bowser : Mario! No one, NO ONE, is authorized to kidnap the Princess except ME! It just wouldn't be right! Let's take her back to Mushroom Kingdom, where she belongs!
Mario: Forget it.
Party: Enough, already!
(The party forces Mario to return to Mushroom Kingdom.)
XVII - Triumphant Return
(In Mushroom Kingdom, Toad is eagerly waiting for Mario’s return.)
Toad: Mario!... Welcome back!! You look like you're in one piece!
P...P..Princess!
Toadstool: I'm finally home! And with Mario... and some wonderful... new friends! They saved my life.
Toad: Let's go find the Chancellor...
Toadstool: Lead on! Come on Mario. We mustn't keep the Chancellor waiting!
(They head to the throne room where the Chancellor and others are.)
Toad: Chancellor! The...the Princess... She's BACK!!
Chancellor: Thank goodness! This has been a true nightmare! I'm a nervous wreck!
Toadstool : I know I've worried everyone... But I'm fine! I can take care of myself... With a little help from Mario!
Chancellor: Come, everyone! Let's get out of this drafty doorway!
Toadstool : Mario, I hope you know how thankful we are! But...you MUST tell me one thing! How on earth can you trust... Bowser?
Chancellor: Trust...Bowser? What ARE you talking about?!
(Bowser, Mallow and Geno present themselves to all.)
Chancellor: Mario! What are YOU doing with... WHAT'S GOING ON HERE? EGADS!
Toadstool : Chancellor! Listen, everyone, RELAX! Mario's got things under control!
Chancellor: Y, yes...I see.
Toadstool: Bowser... Perhaps it's time you told us your story!
What, exactly, did you mean when you said you had, "Bigger fish to fry?"
(Bowser’s a bit hesitant that they may construed him of something that will ruin his villainous reputation.)
Bowser: (Can't...tell 'em...the truth...If this gets out... I'm finished...!)
Mallow: Excuse me, Sir... Perhaps I can set the stage, and the others can add their comments along the way!
The Princess, Bowser and Mario were thrown in different directions after a terrible explosion...
Something HUGE crashed through the Star Road high above Bowser's place...and...
And went... KABOOM! Right into Bowser's Keep!! It was a gigantic sword!
Now Bowser's Keep has been taken over by monsters who work for some creep named "Smithy."
Bowser: They've thrown me out of my own... I mean... I decided to take a vacation! They CAN'T do this to me! Anyway, I was working on a plan to get my house back, when... …Mario walked up to me and BEGGED me to let him join the Koopa Troop! I had no choice but to let him in. It was pathetic.
(Mario pleads to differ in front of them, that Bowser is not telling the whole truth.)
Toadstool: It's okay, Mario. We know Bowser's stretching the truth a little!
And...Mallow...how about you? Why are you traveling with Mario?
Mallow: Well, because Mario's helping me find my real home... And my parents...
That's why we're on the road together.
Toadstool: WHAT?! This is dreadful news! Awful! Horrible...!
I hope you find your real parents soon! And...um, Geno,... was it? Why are you and Mario...
Geno: The Star Road has been destroyed. I'm here to fix it.
Mario is helping me search for the Star Pieces. I need them to rebuild the road...
Toadstool: Star...Pieces?
Mallow: The Star Road grants our wishes! Unless we find all the Star Pieces and fix the Star Road, we can kiss our dreams goodbye!
Toadstool: WHAT?! This is dreadful news! Awful! Horrible...! Isn't it?
Geno: Indeed...for example... Say Bowser kidnapped you. Without the aid of the Star Road, you'd probably never be rescued!
Bowser: Actually, that sounds pretty GOOD to me! Let's just forget about these...Star...things!
Toadstool: Great, Bowser. Then you can just kiss your precious "Keep" goodbye!
Bowser: HUH?! WHAT?!
Huh? Let's see. If Mario can't find the stars... Toadstool will be MINE! But I won't get my Keep back... unless Mario finds the stars! So if I want my Keep back... we need those star things, but... Huh?! Run that past me again!
Toadstool: Urgh!!! Just ignore that idiot!
I just don't think I could take a world without wishes... We need to go and find those Star Pieces, NOW!
(The Chancellor greatly disagrees with the princess’ whim.)
Chancellor: Princess! You CAN'T be serious! You're NOT thinking of joining them, ARE YOU?
This is sheer madness... You're a Princess! What will people say?!
Toadstool: I don't care! Things seem so hopeless right now... I'm tired...
I think I need to lie down in my room for awhile.
Mario...Mallow...Geno and...Bowser, you too... Good luck!
Chancellor: Now then! Thanks to Mario, the Princess is back. I now declare
this date to be known forever as,...
...Hey, wait a minute! You don't suppose... Could it have been this "Smithy" who attacked our Kingdom?
I fear we have no cause to rejoice. In fact, Mario, we must ask you for yet another favor... Please...on behalf of all of us, you MUST defeat Smithy... It is the only was we shall ever live in peace again.
Narration: Princess Toadstool is home safe, but she has... decided to stay at the Kingdom!
(Princess Toadstool leaves to take a rest in her room. Later on, Mario’s party leaves the palace. While they are outside, the princess, who is trying to escape and wants to join everyone on their journey, jumps out on one of the spire using her parasol to hover in the air.)
Toadstool: Mario! Please, Mario! Take me along with you, please!
Don't worry. Grandma helped me through this one, so no one will ever notice that I'm gone! So...let's go find us a star! Hmmm... But I wonder where it could be... I have absolutely no idea! Do you?
Mallow: Mario! At times like these....
Toadstool: What should we do?
Mallow: We should ask Grandpa! My Grandpa should know!
Toadstool: Okay then!
Let's do it!
(Princess Toadstool joins the party once again.)
XVIII - Hill of Wishes
(Mario’s party head to Tadpole Pond to seek advice from the old sage Frogfucius.)
Frogfucius: I have the latest news, children.
A large star's been sighted on "Star Hill".
(The party proceeds to Star Hill to investigate the large fallen star.)
Geno: This is Star Hill. Wishes, which were transformed at the Star Road, fall from here.
But.... Some wishes that haven't been granted yet are falling because Smithy destroyed the Star Road.
Frogfucius mentioned hearing about a Star Piece on this hill. Let's see if we can find it.
(Mario’s party views some stars to know the wishes they contain.)
Raz’s Wish: "Can't wait to start a family."
Raini’s Wish: "I hope my baby's cute!"
Mallow’s Wish: "I wish I weren't such a crybaby."
(Mallow was embarrassed of what they found out.)
Mallow: This one's private! Who do you think you are, spying on other people's wishes?
C'mon, our quest for the Star Pieces is important! Everyone's counting on us! We've got to hurry! Sorry about that. It's just that I'm embarassed about my wish.
Frogfucius’ Wish: "Wish I had some Cricket Jam."
Toadofsky’s Wish: "If I could JUST get that melody!"
Belome’s Wish: "The hunger! Oh, for some food!"
Chef Torte’s Wish: "I vant to be a vald class baker."
Croco’s Wish: "I wanna be the best treasure hunter in the world."
Mallow’s Parents Wish: "Please let Mallow find his way home."
Mallow: Why, this wish is... It's from my mom and dad. They're wishing for me to come home!
Sniffle...
This isn't the time to be crying! They're waiting for me to come home!
Come on Mario, we've got a busy schedule to keep. I'll make you eat dust if you don't hurry.
Birdo’s Wish: "I hope I become famous."
Yoshi’s Wish: "(Wish I could run faster.)"
Luigi’s Wish: "I wanna be a great plumber like my brother Mario."
(In the endmost part of Star Hill, Mario’s party finds the purple Star Piece. Now, they finally have the fourth Star Piece.)
Narration: You've come a long way, but your journey's not over yet. There are 3 more Star Pieces.
XIX - Noble Pirates
(Mario’s party continue their journey until they reached Seaside Town. Something odd is happening in the place, the townspeople are acting strange and keeps mentioning the name of the pirate captain, “Jonathan Jones.” The party heads to the elder’s house to investigate more about this matter.)
Elder: Finally! It took you long enough! I am the ELDER of this village. I got to my exalted station in life by...pleasing my superiors, which is something I do well.
A star has fallen into the ocean. I need it for...a certain purpose. You...must find it for me.
You'll find the star in "Jonathan Jones'" territory. Don't worry, you can beat him. (At least I THINK you can.) Hurry and bring back the star!
(Mario’s party accepted the elders proposition and heads to the Sea until the Sunken Ship, where captain Jonathan “Johnny” Jone’s and his mates are nesting. They delve deeper underwater until they reach a restricted area where a password is needed in order to pass through. After some trial and errors and with the help of some hints they found along the way, the party finally figured out the password, which is “PEARLS.”)
King Calamari: Good job...I'll let you through...If you can get past ME first, that is.
(The battle begins. King Kalamari proves to be a tough opponent but the party manages to beat the kraken somehow. The party wins and continue diving deeper underwater until they reached the entrance next to the captain’s cabin.)
Pirate 1: Arrrr! What's goin' on HERE?! Who're YOU...?
What?! You're lookin' fer a STAR? I'LL let ya see stars, arr harr!
Anyway, yer outta luck! Ya see, whatever falls into the sea becomes JOHNNY'S property! Got that, MATEY?!
Oh, and one last thing... Read my lips... WE AIN'T LETTIN' YA THROUGH! GOT IT?!
(Mario’s party easily defeated the pirates in the battle.)
Pirate 1: Arrr! You're stronger than ya look... Better warn the upper deck! Come on, mates!
The pirates rush above the stair to report and warn their comrades above. Mario is about to climb the stair when some pirates bumps and runs over him. )
Pirate 2: All right, where's the intruder?!
I don't see 'im. Did he get away?!
THERE HE IS!, Get 'im boys!
(Mario’s party continue to climb the stair but a bunch of pirates block the upper deck.)
Pirate 3: Here, this is on us!!
(They throws a barrel which Mario’s party easily evaded and ends up toppling the pirates below.)
Pirate 3: WHAT THE?! How dare you dodge the barrel!
(Another battle begins, and just like the first one, Mario’s party overwhelm them with their superior skills. Then, they head forward above.)
Pirate 4: HEY! How'd you get up here so fast? Well, your "luck" has run out!
We don't take kindly to strangers here!
(Yet another battle that ends up just like the others before them.)
Pirate 4: You're pretty tough, mate. All right. I'll let you through Johnny's place.
(The party finally arrives in Johnny’s cabin.)
Johnny: So you're THE Mario, eh? Arr, harr, harr...! Not much to look at... Well, this star fell into MY SEA, so it's MINE! If you want it, you'll have to fight for it!
(The inevitable battle between Mario’s party and Johnny Jone’s pirates begins. After some damage were taken and Johnny’s men were badly beaten, he challenges Mario in a manly one-on-one fight.)
Johnny: Fuwa ha ha... Not bad, fellas. How about it, Mario? Mario versus me! Wanna mix it up?
(Mario nods assent. The duel between two lion-hearted men begins while their comrades cheer from two opposing sides.)
Johnny: Good fun! And good for you, too! All right. Here comes my backup!
(The battle is harsh, Johnny is a force to reckon with. In the end, Mario defeated the pirate captain somehow.)
Johnny: I'm impressed, matey! You've earned the star. Think of it as a souvenir of our fight!
(Johnny gives the indigo Star Piece as trophy to Mario. They have now the fifth Star Piece. After establishing a camaraderie with the pirates, Mario’s party returns to Seaside Town and meets with the elder and others who eagerly waiting for them at the entrance.)
Elder: Eee hee hee! You found the star! Well done! But your journey ends here. You are so gullible! Don't you know who I am?
I'm "Yaridovich", a member of Smithy's gang. Shocked? It's no wonder! My impersonation of an ordinary person was flawless.
Your search for the stars has worried Smithy. So if I take that star back to him, I'll earn brownie points. THIS is the way to get ahead! It's futile to try and fight me. Just hand it over, nice and easy.
XIX.A - If Mario Refuses to Give Up the Star
Mario: Get serious!
Yaridovich: So that's how you want to play it? What do you think will happen to the real inhabitants of Seaside Town?
(Yaridovich sends one of his minion to the house where the hostages are locked up and harasses the real elder of Seaside Town.)
Elder: What are you doing? No! Don't do that!
No please stop! ..ACK!......
Yaridovich: Now isn't it a shame for an innocent old man to be tickled... like this?
Mario: Get serious!
(Yaridovich sends two of his minions to the house and once again do the same thing on the elder.)
Elder: No you wouldn't! The two of you are going to???
Nooo! Please not there! ....Aiee......ee......
(Yaridovich gets mad and sends all four of his minions to the house to tickle the elder again.)
Elder: Harumph! You can't treat me this way!
Ayaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaiiiiiieeeeeeeeeeaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaiyaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa aaaaaaaaaaaaeeee....
I can't bear this!....
Mario: Okay.
(Mario handed to Yaridovich the fifth Star.)
Yaridovich: Eee hee hee! And to think I got the star without even soiling my hands! I'm such a genius, it scares me sometimes. No wonder I'm so important!
All right everyone, listen up. We're returning to the castle! Our ride should be here about now.
(Yaridovich and his minions make their escape heading to the Seaside shores. Mario’s party follows and finds them stranded while waiting for their get away ride.)
Yaridovich: Blade's late. What's taking him so long?
We need to get out of here. This is JUST great! Mario caught up with us.
Only one thing we can do now. Although we may rust a little, we'll have to swim for it.
(They are about to dive underwater when Johnny and his pirates show up, blocking Yaridovich’s escape route.)
Johnny: Not so fast there! That star's a gift to me mate, Mario.
You spineless dogs have no code of honor! We'll make you walk the plank!
Pirate 1: Johnny, maybe we should leave Mario the pleasure of wrapping things up here.
Yaridovich: Eee hee...! I guess we'll have to take our disguises off now... GROUP formation!
(Yaridovich and his minion take off their disguises and fuses together to become a tall boss. The battle is tough, but Mario’s party successfully eliminated the foe in the end. Mario reclaims the fifth Star.)
Narration: Smithy is now in the race for the Star Pieces!
What horrible surprises might he have in store for Mario?
(After the fight Jonathan Jones has already gone to his headquarter but he left a letter to his new found friends.)
To Mario,
Knowin' you, it must've been a breeze knockin' down Yarid, eh?
By the way, my pirates say they saw a huge AX flyin' across the sky. It's
probably one of Smithy's nasty friends. Go GET him, pal!
Well, my gills are failing on me, so I'll be headin' back down. Drop in
whenever you have time, okay?
Your true mate,
Jonathan "Johnny" Jones
XX - Reformed Monsters
(Mario heads to the real elder of Seaside Town to inquire about the stars.)
Elder: Mario, if it's a star that you're looking for, I may be able to help you.
At the far side of "Land's End" is a town made up of reformed monsters.
A mouse came by the other day, and I overheard him boasting about a "star" of theirs.
I don't know exactly where this town is located, but if you follow the road, you'll get there.
(Mario’s party heads out once again to continue their journey. They arrive at the outskirt of Land’s End. At the entrance, they meet the rat whom the elder is talking about earlier.)
Funk Rat: Ahhh! Haven't been here in a while. I've been busy traveling around.
Where are you heading? Is it Monstro Town by any chance?
XX.A - If Mario Denies
Mario: Nope.
Rat Funk: Oh, I thought you were lost or something. Never mind, I'll see you around.
XX.B - If Mario Says Yes
Mario: Yes.
Rat Funk: Ok, listen up. Look for the whirl where the ant pops up and proceed after it. Keep following and you'll find your way underground. Once there, Monstro Town's just around the corner. I'll see you there.
(Mario’s party follows the advice of their new found friend. Later on, they catches up with Rat Funk standing below the cliff that leads to another place.)
Rat Funk: Oh! Hello again. Isn't this incredible? It really does look like the edge of the world, doesn't it?
It's too spooky for me! I'm heading back to Monstro Town. See ya!
(They left the place and enter an underground passageway. They delve deeper to the ruins until they reached the lowest underground. On that place, they meet a familiar face waiting voraciously for any passerby.)
Belome: Hmm, you look so tasty. I think I'll have a snack!
I never forget a taste! In fact, I can clone someone after just one slurp. Watch! You all LOOK delicious! But how do you TASTE?
XX.C - If Belome Swallows Mario
Mario: Ack! Sour!
XX.D - If Belome Swallows Mallow
Belome: YES! THIS is YUMMY-
XX.E - If Belome Swallows Geno
Belome: Bitter, but not bad...
XX.F - If Belome Swallows Bowser
Belome: Yuck! How repulsive!
XX.G - If Belome Swallows Toadstool
Belome: Mmm, tastes peachy...
(During the battle, Mario’s party were cloned but they overcome them with their superior skills. Belome’s dinner turns out a disaster as he falls down badly beaten.)
Belome: Oh, no, not again! I'm STARVING! Time to go home for dinner. Goodbye, boys and girls!
Rat Funk: Oh! Hello again. That pipe is a shortcut to my home, Monstro Town. I'll see you there.
(Mario’s party follows their friend’s trail until they are outside of the underground ruins. Finally, they arrive at Monstro Town. They enter the first house they encountered.)
Monstermama: Oh, my! A traveler from afar.
Welcome to Monstro Town, where many of our kind mingle. I'm the landlady, Monstermama.
A star, you say? Oh you're here to see OUR star! She's upstairs, so feel free to go and take a look for yourself.
(The party heads upstairs to get the Star but finds a Zeostar monster instead. They head back downstairs.)
Monstermama: So what do you think? Isn't our star adorable? She's so talented too! Folks come to see her from afar.
Starbees...? Oh, Star Piece! Nope, not familiar with 'em. So you came all the way out here to search for a Star Piece? It must be REALLY important. This is the last place on land. If you can't find it here...
The only place left, is UP! So! You wanna go there? Ha! You're an open book! Ok, here's what you need to do. There's a secret passage to the sky at...Bean Valley! But first you must scale the cliff beyond the desert to get there.
Since you're such a nice guy, I'll introduce you to someone that can help you.
Sky Troopas, I need you!
(Three Sky Troopas rushes through as they enter the room.)
Sgt. Flutter: What was our flying time, troops?
Sky Troopas: ....8.52 seconds, Sergeant!
(Sgt. Flutter salutes to Monstermama.)
Sgt. Flutter: Sky Troopas reporting for duty, MA'AM!
We're 0.52 seconds late! I hold myself personally accountable for the delay, Ma'am!
Monstermama: Still as rigid as ever about your rules and regulations? No need
to bother with the protocol around me, Sergeant. I've got a favor to ask of you.
Sgt. Flutter: Yes Ma'am! Anything we can do for a civilian.
Monstermama: This fellow here REALLY wants to get to Bean Valley. Could you help him scale the cliff?
Sgt. Flutter: Understood, Ma'am!
The orders are: "Get Mustache over the cliff"! We WILL succeed!
We will now deploy ourselves to the cliff at Land's End. Troopas, keep a tight formation! We have lift off!
(The Sky Troopas heads out of the room.)
Monstermama: They're odd, but trustworthy! Good luck with your search!
(Mario’s party returns below the cliff where they met Rat Funk once. Upon their arrival, the Sky Troopas are already commencing their formation. They arrange themselves one after another to make a sky bridge for the party to hop on, which leads to the top of the cliff.)
Sgt. Flutter: Ten-hut! All troops in positions!
Mario, your mission is to scale the cliff, by jumping from shell to shell.
(Mario’s party follows the instruction of Sgt. Flutter. They jump on the Sky Troopas’ shells one after the other and finally made it to the end. After they arrived to the apex of the cliff, Sgt. Flutter checks his watch to rate the party’s speed.)
