Princess Peach was in her castle, observing her guests. There were many Toads(since the castle was located in Toad Town), friendly Goombas and Koops Troopas, and even two allies of Mario and Luigi.

The first one was a yellow star-like creature, that took on the shape of a sphere, and was wearing shoes. It also had a star floating above its head. The second one looked more human than the star, and it had a red pillow-like head and a red cape that looked similar to a blanket. Peach instantly recognized both of them.

"Starlow? Prince Dreambert? Is that you?" she called out. Both turned at the mention of their names.

"Princess!" Starlow cheered as they walked towards her. "It's so good to see you again!"

"It's lovely to see you two also!" Peach said happily. "I'm glad you could make it."

"Of course I would come to your party," Dreambert smiled. "It would give me a chance to visit the Mushroom Kingdom, and I must say, it looks quite lovely. Just as lovely as Pi'illo Island!"

"Why thank you Dreambert," Peach replied, happy that the leader of the Pi'illos had come to visit the Mushroom Kingdom. Not too long ago, herself, the Mario brothers, several Toads and Toadsworth had taken a vacation on the island. However, things got sour rather fast as Peach was taken into the dreamworld by Antasma, the evil bat king, who had also petrified the Pi'illos into solid Nightmare chunks within the dreamworld.

Eventually, to make things worse, Bowser had invited himself to the island, and teamed up with Antasma to steal the Dreamstone, a stone that's fuelled by happy dreams and could grant a wish. The brothers, along with Starlow and Dreambert, as well as Luigi's dreams, had defeated Antasma in the dreamworld, and then Bowser, who had powered up with the Dreamstone. After that, they were finally able to enjoy their vacation, and Pi'illo Island(along with the dreamworld) was safe.

For now.

"So anyway Peach," Starlow said, "where are the Mario brothers? You invited them, didn't you?"

"As a matter of fact, I did," Peach replied. "They should be arriving soon..." As if on cue, there was a knocking on the castle doors.

"Oh! That must be them!" she exclaimed, heading towards the door. Sure enough, as she opened the door, the familiar figures of the two plumbers and the dino were shown. "Mario! Luigi! Yoshi! I'm so glad you're here!" Peach said, smiling.

"Hello Princess," Mario said, while tipping his hat. Luigi did the same. "There's a couple of people who are dying to see you again," the princess said, gesturing where Starlow and Dreambert were.

"Hey Mario!" Luigi said, excited. "It's Starlow and Prince Dreambert!" "What? Who?" Yoshi asked. Starlow then noticed the trio. "Hey Dreambert! Look who showed up!" The four of them then approached the duo. "Hey Mario, Luigi, nice to see you again!" Then she noticed Yoshi. "Who's he?"

"Starlow, Dreambert," Mario introduced, "this is our dinosaur friend, Yoshi. We've been best friends for many years. He helped me rescue Luigi when we were babies from Kamek and Baby Bowser. He's also helped us in saving the Princess and the Mushroom Kingdom several times."

"Wow," Starlow replied, surprised that what stood before her, was another hero of the Mushroom Kingdom. "It's a pleasure to meet you! I'm Starlow! I traveled with the bros when they got inhaled by Bowser a couple of years ago."

"Oh yeah, Mario told me about that journey," Yoshi said, then paused. "It must've been nasty being inside Bowser. Yuck!"

"I'll admit," Luigi confessed, "it wasn't as bad as I thought it would be."

"Anyway," Dreambert said, hoping to change the subject before it could go any further, "my name is Prince Dreambert. Like Starlow, I traveled with the bros not too long ago, in a quest to save my homeland, Pi'illo Island, and my people, the Pi'illos, from Antasma, the evil bat king. With the help of the brothers, we freed the Pi'illos, and stopped Antasma and Bowser from acting out their evil plan that involved the Dreamstone."

"What's a Dreamstone?" Yoshi asked, quite confused. "It's a stone that gets its power from the good dreams, and can grant wishes," Mario explained. "That's why we had to stop them because for sure, they would've used it for evil."

Before Yoshi could respond, there was a loud crash and suddenly, debris flew from everywhere. Toads and Koopas were running all over the castle, trying to escape from impending danger. The six then started to panic. "MARIO!" Luigi cried, "what's going on!" Suddenly, a familar laugh rang out and then a voice: "I HAVE FURY!" The bros and Starlow never thought they would hear that dimented laugh again. They couldn't believe it.

He was back.
