Chapter 9

Back to the Mushroom Kingdom

"H-h-how could a Chaos Emerald end up here?!?" asked Sonic astounded at its red glow

"We could find-a-explanation over at Professor E Gadd's place. He's the one who sent the emerald." Replied Mario

"How's that leg of yours dear?" asked Mrs. Sippi

"Almost better thanks," Answered Sonic, "it might get better at E Gadds."

"You mean your going to leave? Bowser's men are searching for you!" yelled Mr. Sippi

"I don't care! I need to learn something from him before something else happens!"

"In that case, I'm going with you!" said Mr. Sippi

"Dear!" yelled Mrs. Sippi worriedly

"Me too, I have-a-something to give to E Gadd from the princess anyway!" said Mario

"Let's go then." Said Sonic

"Watch the house while we're gone, and if the kids come home from their friend's place, tell them not to take our videogames with them!" commanded Mr. Sippi

"Ok dear!" answered Mrs. Sippi

While Sonic, Mario, and Mr. Sippi leave for Professor E Gadd's place, Bowser was not happy with his men and of course, yelling at them for failing again

"Maybe next time he shouldn't send us to places where Mario is sure to be." Said a Goomba

"Quiet! Or we'll be in big trouble!" said another Goomba

"TALKING ARE YOU FRED?" yelled King Bowser Koopa. A huge turtle with spikes in his shell, and hair on his head, "YOU KNOW WHAT HAPPENS WHEN SOMEONE TALKS WHILE I TALK RIGHT?"

"I have to clean the latrine." Said Fred sadly

"Busted." Said the Goomba next to him

"SINCE YOUR TALKING YOU ARE CLEANING THE LATRINE WITH FRED, JOE!" screamed Bowser

"Aw man!" groaned Joe

"Now, AS I WAS SAYING! I am disappointed in you! Failing to capture a disabled Hedghog!" lectured Bowser

"He's not disabled sir, he strained his leg." Said George the Goomba

"GEORGE! TO THE LATRINES! Now. You men are so worthless an-"

"WE SAID THIS A MILLION TIMES! MARIO CAME AND KICKED US ALL!!!" yelled all 97 Goombas present

"DID… YOU… SAY… MARIO!?!?!?" screamed Bowser

"THAT'S WHAT WE SAID SIR!" replied the 97 goombas

"So… Mario is also responsible for this, whatever this is, it has to do with my men suddenly missing" thought Bowser, "Men, for your failure, you are all to paint my room red! Remember, it's Thursday!"

"Awwwwww!"

"That's even worse than cleaning a latrine!"

"We don't have any hands!"

"How can we lift those paintbrushes?"

As Bowser is planning something crazy, Sonic, Mario, and Mr. Sippi are walking to E Gadd's place.
