A/N: Hey, everyone, I'm back and out of my writer's block, so here's the next chapter. Also, just to say, I finished Bowser's Inside Story last week, so I'm feeling pretty awesome about that. Anyways, enough of me talking, here's the chapter.

Back in the Mushroom Kingdom, Master Hand was planning his plot for revenge on those two plumbers...and that girl...and Mark. Oh, he knew that he would be betrayed by him, or vice versa, but what did he know? Surely he remembered telling Crazy Hand, his so-called father, that he would never hire the boy.

What do you mean, Sir?

I mean I don't want him! What if he tells people? What if he recalls his past? Or, the worst-case scenario, his PARENTS?

There's nothing to worry about. I put his mind in lockdown a few minutes ago, and he won't remember anything until he knows or sees these two men, the princess, or even this girl.

Crazy Hand showed him a picture of a girl - the same one he encountered earlier. Why did it have to be that particular girl? He didn't know back then. "What was so special about her?" he asked himself. Of course, he knew the answer. "Because she is Mario and Luigi's sister, and also because no one knew her hardly, so no one would see her.

Until that day...

The day where he was betrayed by Mark. The day he was defeated. The day where it was just the beginning of...what? His revenge. "If I'm going to take down this girl, I'm going to need some help," he told himself. Now that he didn't have any servants, he would have to call for his allies himself. "Who to call first?" he asked himself. "I know. My parents."

Master Hand's parents were cruel, but not to him. His parents could be on board with whatever it was he was planning. It could be an evil scheme, something else evil, something more deliberate than others. Master Hand picked up the phone and called.

"Honey!"

"What?"

"The phone!"

"What about it?"

"It's ringing!"

"What's that? It's stinging?"

"No! It's ringing!

"It's singing?"

"NO, WOMAN! IT'S RINGING!"

"Oh. OK I'LL GET IT!"

Master Hand's mother put the setting onto speakerphone. "Hello?" she asked. There was a sigh on the other end. "Hi, Mom, it's me." Master Hand said. "Oh, hi, my baby hand! D'EVIL, IT'S YOUR SON!" Master Hand's mother screamed. "OK, HOLD ON! I'LL BE RIGHT THERE, CRUELLA!" D'evil shouted back at her. Cruella sighed. "I'm telling you, your father has been becoming careless each day." "Yeah, it's a habit mom." Master Hand said. "But I like it." Cruella said. D'evil came in the room and asked "Ok, what are you calling us for, son?"

"I have an evil plan. For revenge. Call up the relatives, I'm going to need all the help I can get." Master Hand explained. "Anything for you, darling," Cruella said. "Bye-bye, now, stay evil, my dear boy." D'evil said. Master Hand hung up. "Ok, now that that's over, let's begin to draw up the blueprints." Master Hand said to himself. "Might as well get started for the PowerPoint presentation." he muttered.
