Olivia watched Kooky pick himself up and walk into the lab. She didn't know why she just laughed at him, she just didn't feel good about the fact that Kooky volunteered to sway Princess Toadstool, the stupid ruler who could never fight her capturer. Well, with her dainty arms and legs, it'd be a miracle for her if the strong Koopa King felt her hit him!

She looked back to the Koopas gathered in the lab. She wondered what to say, or what to do. She finally cleared her throat and said, "Hip or Hop. One of you give Cheatsy your wand." Hip grudgingly stepped forward and hesitantly handed Cheatsy his beloved wand. "Thank you. Now Kooky, step forward." Kooky stepped out of the cluster of Koopas and nodded. Cheatsy didn't even need Olivia to tell him to step up. He strode out of the small crowd. "Okay. I'm going to have to have someone magic Kooky a black shirt and black pants. He's being transformed into a human, so the shell's going to disappear. I'm going to leave the room, because I don't think Kooky would like me to stay." Olivia smirked to herself at Kooky's bright red face. Others in the room chuckled. "Cheatsy, or anyone else in the room for that matter, yell at the top of your lungs if something goes wrong. I'll be here in a second. I'm going." Olivia walked out of the room, confident of Cheatsy's abilities. She was almost positive that nothing would go wrong.

Almost.

She shut the door behind her and waited outside the lab. She heard Cheatsy create a black shirt and pants, and then he started the main spell. The incantation sounded complicated. Olivia assumed it was all the characteristics in Darklandian, the Koopa's native tongue.

Once Cheatsy fell silent, Olivia heard a shrill shriek. She burst into the room, terrified that someone had been hurt. But NO, it was just Kootie Pie, disgusted by the now-human teenager in front of her. When Olivia realized that Kooky had been transformed and was in the room, she hurriedly covered her eyes in embarrassment. "Other than that, everything is okay?" Olivia asked through cupped hands. She heard someone respond positively. "And Kootie Pie, please. I've seen MY brother naked before. Why can't you?" Not waiting for an answer, Olivia turned around. "Kooky, change and tell me when I can turn around." After a small pause, she heard an unrecognizable voice give assent. Olivia slowly turned around to face the now-human Kooky.

"Oh my goodness," Olivia whispered hoarsely. "You look amazing."

She automatically noticed everything the Koopa King had said. Green eyes, black hair and a slim body were definitely present. She then noticed what had been left unclassified. His complexion wasn't the pale color she had expected, but hey. At least he didn't have one of those very overdone spray tans that make you look like you rolled in Doritos.

"How is it? Do I look like I'm supposed to?" His voice. Oh, it was soothing and soft, with a hint of flirtatiousness notable.

"Yes! Great job, everyone!" Seeing Kooky made her feel happy, and she was relieved that Cheatsy or someone else hadn't wrecked the spell.

"Alright then," Bully said impatiently. "I'm tired of watching Olivia stare at Kooky." Olivia turned bright red and glared at her newfound friend. "Let's have someone head to the Mushroom Kingdom!"

"Okay. Bully, Cheatsy, you're in charge. I'll give you each an earpiece so we can communicate." Olivia handed one to each of them and put one on her own ear.

"Oh, Olivia, can I have one? I've always wanted to use an earpiece and they look so cool and I promise I'd be responsible and-"

"No," Olivia stated plainly. She then waved to Kooky. "Let's go, Kooky," Olivia said as a warp pipe popped up in front of her. 'Be brave, be brave,' she thought to herself. 'It's an adventure with the Koopalings. You've dreamed of this forever.' Mustering all the courage that she could, she jumped into the warp pipe, her adventure truly beginning.
