The Paper Mario
Chronicles
Chapter 3: Return to Star Haven
Toad Town
Mario's cellphone starts ringing.
Mario: Hello?
Luigi: It's a me a Luigi!
Mario: Luigi! How you've been?
Luigi: Good, um... I heard that Bowser is sending his Koopalings to guard the other Diamond Stars.
Mario: Oh, that's useful.
Luigi: Look, I gotta go or they're gonna throw me in the furnace.
Mario: Really? Let's talk some more!
Luigi: No Mario, I got to go.
Mario: I thought we could chat.
Luigi hangs up.
Goombella: So mario, what now?
Mario: Well-
???: Mario? Can you hear me? This is Skolar. One of the Star Spirits.
Lord Crump: We hear you.
Skolar: The next Diamond Star is in Star Haven.
Mario: You mean we have to climb all the way up there again?
Skolar: We'll let you use the cradle thingy to make it easier.
Mario: That's fine with us.
Skolar: Oh, and don't forget to bring the pizza.
Mario: Yeah, Yeah, whatever.
Star Haven
Goombella: Wow. That was fast. I didn't know the cradle thingy was so useful.
Mario: Yeah, well, we're here so let's get a move on.
Star Temple
Mario: Hey guys.
Twink: Greetings Mario and Co.
Mario: Do you have any ideas where the star might be?
Misstar's thoughts: What if they find out what I'm hiding?
Twink: We have no idea.
Misstar's thoughts: Maybe Bowser won't save me like he said. Misstar: What if they find out? Bowser: I'll come save you.
Twink: Misstar.
Misstar's thoughts: Gah!
Misstar: Uh... Yes, Twink?
Twink: You haven't spoken much, is something troubling you?
Misstar: Uh, no Master Twink.
Mario: Ok, we'll go interrogate the some other Star Kids.
Star Haven
Goombella: Misstar seemed to be acting strange.
Lord Crump: She was hot!
Goombella: Ugh! Men!
Mario: Look over there!
Mario points to a suspicious star kid running down the back of an alley. Mario and Co. chase him.
Mario: Hey! You! Stop!
They stop at a dead end.
Goombella: Huh? Where'd he go?
Lord Crump: Cool wall! I want to touch it!
Lord Crumps hand goes through the wall.
Lord Crump: Huh?
Mario: It's an illusion.
Mario and Co. go through the wall to find another wall, but with a door.
Mario: It's locked!
Lord Crump: Up here! I see a vent we can go through to get inside! Grab on to the rope!
Goombella: How'd he get up there?
Mario: Never mind that just start climbing.
Mario and Co. climb up the rope and go through the vent.
Goombella: You can see the room!
The room had a desk in the middle accompanied by a chair and a bookcase to the left of it. It had no windows. It had a tree in a pot. And carpet over the floor.
Mario: Someone's coming inside.
Misstar walks inside. She pulls out a book out of the bookcase. The bookcase moves to reveal a door.
Goombella (whispering): The star kid we we're chasing was really Misstar!
Misstar goes through the door for a while. Then comes out and leaves.
Mario: Lord Crump? Can you bust the vent so we can fall inside?
Lord Crump: You betcha'! Lord Crump brakes open the vent and falls inside with his friends.
Mario: Let's check out what was in that door.
They walk inside to See a Screen with a button. Goombella pushes the button. Bowser's face appears on the screen.
Bowser: Yes Misstar? You called? Hey! Your not my loyal minion Misstar! Oops, did I just say something out loud that I didn't want people hearing again? Whatever. I don't know what your doing, but I want you to leave that house now!
Mario: Where's the Diamond Star!
Bowser: Oh your looking for the Diamond Stars are you? Well it's not there! It's here in my castle! Dang! I did it again!
Misstar: Who's infiltrating my room?! Huh!? Mario!? What are you doing here?
Mario: Your a traitor to the mushroom kingdom!
Misstar: Sorry I have to do this Mario. I really hoped it wouldn't have to come down to this. I hoped you wouldn't find out and we would be great friends. Too bad I have to kill you.
Mini boss: Misstar
Misstar starts out w/ Unlimited hp
Mario starts out w/ 30 hp
Goombella starts out w/ 30 hp
Lord Crump starts out w/ 30 hp
Goombella: Hey! Why do you get unlimited hp?
Misstar: I'm a Star Spirit, what do you expect?
Mario starts out by hammer whacking Misstar and fails terribly.
Goombella tattles Misstar and fails to even get any info.
Lord Crump summons a whole bunch of X-nauts to eat Misstar's flesh. The X-nauts fail terribly.
Goombella: Your attack is gross!
Lord Crump: Hey! I use to be evil!
Misstar: You guys can't even succumb to a strike!
Misstar unleashes a blast of pure energy on Mario. Mario drops out of battle.
Goombella: Mario!
Goombella tries to tattle but fails. Lord Crump fails his attack too.
Misstar unleashes a blast of pure energy on Lord Crump.

Misstar unleashes pure energy on Goombella. Goombella drops out of battle. Misstar gains 50 starpoints.
End of Battle.
Bowser from screen: Finish them!
Misstar is about to unleash pure energy when Muskular comes in.
Muskular: Misstar? Bowser? Mario? What's going on here!?
Misstar: Muskular, I-
Bowser: What are you waiting for finish him!
Muskular unleashes pure energy on the screen destroying it in the process.
Misstar blasts a hole through the roof and leaves.
Muskular: Mario are you ok?
Mario: What happened? Where's Misstar?
Muskular: She got away.
Mario: Get... me.... my.... mushrooms..... uh...... *Cough!* *Cough!* *Faint*

Luigi mini chapter:
Luigi's Room
Luigi: Hey Toadally, Will you let me sneak out and find some clues as to where a Diamond Star is?
Toadally: Uh... The front door is locked, But there is this secret exit through this room I was told. Tell you what. Find the secret exit and I'll let you call Mario.
Luigi: Ok, Time for a Luigi to save the day!
Luigi checks under the bed and all the walls but finds nothing.
Toadally: Maybe you should check the window?
Luigi: I don't need a any help.
Toadally: *Cough!* *Cough!* It's the window. *Cough!* *Cough!*
Luigi: Maybe it's the floor.
Toadally: Look, I'm pointing to the secret exit right now. See it?
Luigi: It's not the floor. I know! It's the window
Toadally: Oh, so you finally figured it out!
Luigi followed by Toadally go through the window to see nothing but sky below. They travel on a ledge to the next window where the ledge ends. They go through the window to find themselves in the-
Luigi: Janitor's closet!
Janitor's Closet
Luigi and Toadally leave the closet into the main room. The main room has three guards guarding the main floor. One is up the stairs guarding the door, and the other is guarding Princess Peach's private chambers. Luigi and Toadally sneak past the guards to the Diamond Star room.
Diamond Star Room
Luigi: That must be the Diamond Star that was being held here.
Luigi takes a picture of it with his cellphone.

Koopa Troopa Jr.: I want a shell!
Green: Oh I'm sure you'll grow yours someday! Hey, anyone wanna' listen to my banjo?
Koopa Troopa Jr.: Hey? Where's Black?
Black: Dear diary, today Yellow went shopping at the mall. That's just weird because he's a boy. I also covered my shell in ketchup and called it blood. Everyone was freaked out and then started mocking me. I hate my life. But most of all, I hate that Mario guy. I think I'm going from goth to emo because I'm starting to cut my arms. Crap, now I have to write with my left hand.
