Chopper wanted to hit the Heart Block before heading down, since his HP was pretty low from getting in some fights with enemies. Down the slope was some water, and it looked clear as crystal, which was nice. A lot clearer than any other water in the Blooper Cave. Everyone seemed relieved about this.

"Let's get this over with and fight whatever's down there," Chopper suggested.

"It depends on how long I have to hold my breath though," Koopla noted. "I can hold mine for five minutes, but I don't know if that'll be enough for whatever might be up ahead."

"Don't worry about it. It's just water." Bow assured. "The water looks beautiful, like my sparkly eyes."

"Sparkly eyes? I don't think I have…" Bow turned to Chopper, and he noticed her eyes sparkle. "…seen them. All right, I see them."

"C'mon, guys! Let's just get ourselves in that water an' go swimmin'!" Yosho declared. "You came fer the Star Spirit, so yer all gonna go underwater!"

"I guess I'll go first, then," Chopper began to go down the rocky slope, and he sunk down to the bottom. He knew his Water ability would somehow come in handy.

Koopla held her breath, and she dove into the water. Bruce managed to go down, and then Parakarry began to follow. Once the others got into the water, they saw there was a path down to the lower right. But, a Metal Block appeared to be in the way. There was also a Save Block nearby as well.

"Hold on, let me save first," Chopper swam to the Save Block, and he hit it, saving his game. With that over with, they began to press on.

This room was actually pretty big, and it was a little dark. The whole place wasn't entirely filled with water, but at the top of the room was the surface. Koopla, Parakarry, and Yosho immediately swam up there and they began to catch their breaths.

"Man… I REALLY needed to catch my breath there." Parakarry wheezed. "I don't really see much in the water. All I can see is Chopper, Bruce, Bow, and C-2 Choppor."

Chopper looked around if anything was in this area. He couldn't see anything. All he could see is Koopla, Parakarry, and Yosho.

"I thought there would be something here. I can't see anything here except for those three!" Chopper frowned. "I guess we should turn back."

C-2 Choppor began to see something on his scanners. "My scanners show something IS in here. It looks like a tentacle."

"I see it too. Wait, it looks like that tentacle… Oh no." Bow gasped as she saw three tentacles were going after Koopla, Parakarry, and Yosho.

"Guys! Watch out!" they all shouted. The three heard them, but they were suddenly grabbed by the three tentacles.

"Agh! What is this!?" Koopla exclaimed as she was pulled underwater.

"Somebody help me!" Parakarry cried while getting pulled down.

"Gah! This isn't good." Yosho gulped, getting pulled down.

Chopper and the others saw the three tentacles, with the three being held in them.

"Bloobloobloobloop! (You made it, Chopper! But your friends won't!)"

"I have no idea what whatever spoke just said. I'm confused." Bruce gawked.

"I don't understand it either," Chopper said. "Choppor, can you turn that light on while underwater?"

"Yes, turning light visors on now!" C-2 Choppor turned them on, and they all saw a big, gray Blooper with some black ink on his face and white eyes.

"Whoa… That thing's big!" Bow gaped.

"Bloobloobloop! (Yeah, I'm big. Big deal. Bigger is always better!)" Bloopink scoffed. "Bloobloobloobloop! (King Bowser ordered me to guard the Star Spirit, so you're not getting it easily!)"

"Look, I don't know what you just said, but just give me back my friends!" Chopper shouted.

"Bloobloop! (You want your friends back? OK, I'll give them back!)" Bloopink threw Chopper's partners at them, but thankfully, they were able to avoid getting hurt. "Bloobloobloop! (This cave is mine, and I'll never stop polluting the Yoshi's water! Time for you all to taste a good tentacle sandwich!)"

Bloopink had his two tentacles ready for action. Koopla, Parakarry, and Yosho swam back to the others, ready to battle.

Tattle: That's Bloopink, the big bad Blooper. He's pretty big, and he looks really angry. Max HP: 40, Attack Power: 5, Defense Power: 0. He's got two tentacles with 8 HP, and they can help him attack you. Chopper, if he uses ink, be sure to wash that away with your water! Yosho can throw eggs at him to get rid of the ink too. But, taking those tentacles out first might be a good idea.

"Hmm… Maybe I should start out with that Tsunami Wave attack…" Chopper summoned a huge wave, and it hit Bloopink and his tentacles, taking away 8 from him and his tentacles, and that got rid of his tentacles.

Yosho gave Chopper a thumbs up, since he couldn't talk underwater. He swam toward Bloopink, and he used a Ground Pound on him. Bloopink shot a bunch of ink at Chopper. Since his Water ability was still on, he didn't get poisoned by it.

"Yeah, having this surely does help. I'll give him a good stomp or two." Chopper jumped up onto Bloopink, and he stomped on him twice, taking 4 out of him.

"Hmm… My Smack is stronger now. So maybe I should lend a hand." Bow declared.

"Go right ahead. You'll do some good damage anyway."

Bow appeared by Bloopink, and she smacked him six times. This gave Bloopink a bump on his head.

"Bloop! (Youch! That really hurt!)" Bloopink cried as Bow cackled. Out of anger, Bloopink spewed out ink at Chopper, who tried to swim away from it. Thankfully, he was actually able to guard the attack.

"All right, then… Take this! I'm gonna fry you up in no time!" Chopper swam toward Bloopink, ready to shoot a fireball, but he noticed that his flames didn't work.

"Flames don't work underwater, I'm afraid," C-2 Choppor informed.

"Oh, man! Well, I'll do this, then." Chopper spewed out some water at Bloopink, which did a good 6 damage. C-2 Choppor aimed at Bloopink, and he shot him right in the face. He wasn't Ultra Ranked, but his attacks were at least strong enough to do more than 4 damage.

Suddenly, Bloopink's tentacles recovered, and they were ready to attack the group. Bloopink used them to whack Chopper, and then spewed ink at him. Luckily, he guarded all of those.

"I think this should finish him off," Chopper spewed out some more water, and it made Bloopink sink to the ground.

Yosho swam up to the surface and noticed Bloopink lying on the ground, with X's on his eyes.

"Huh? He's beaten already? That wasn't so hard… That was...kind of easy."

"That's it? That was just…EASY! I mean, C-1 TM was harder than him! And he wasn't bigger than him!" Chopper pouted. "That was LAME."

Suddenly, Bloopink's eyes opened again, but this time, he didn't look like he was messing around. His eyes turned more of a gray now as he got back up.

"…Guess he didn't give up yet," Bow gaped. "He got himself up, and he looks a lot more threatening…"

"Bloobloobloop! (You thought this is over? Think again!)" Bloopink was covered in ink now. If he got touched, someone was going to get poisoned...

Tattle: Bloopink's not giving up yet? It looks like he's really going to get you now. Max HP: 40, Attack Power: 7, Defense Power: 0. His tentacles can do more damage too. But, if you use water on him, the poison might go out, and his attack may not be as strong. Not only that, but he can charge up a REALLY strong ink attack. He's still got a strong attack, so he's not going to give up so easily. So, let's hope this doesn't turn out so bad for you

"I should start it off with what I did before," Chopper used his Tsunami Wave again, which made a huge underwater wave hit Bloopink and his tentacles. His tentacles weren't moving, and the poison washed off him.

"Good, his poison's gone! Now to get in the action!" Yosho held his breath, and he began to do a Ground Pound on Bloopink as he dove down. He hit him directly in the face. However, one of Bloopink's tentacles came back, but before he could strike, they heard someone's voice. It sounded familiar to everyone but Bloopink.

"Chopper! You shan't fight alone! Kolorado to the rescue! Hii-yaaaaaaah!"

"Bloobloop? (Who said that?)" Bloopink gawked.

Kolorado came charging in, with an oxygen mask on. He made a kung fu sound when he lashed out toward Bloopink. Unfortunately, he got whacked away by one of Bloopink's tentacles and hit one of the rocks on the wall.

"Oof! Oh, why didn't I see this coming?" Kolorado moaned as he tried to reach to Chopper.

"So sorry, my boy, but that's all I can do at the moment! Good luck with all this!" Kolorado fled the battle by attempting to swim away horribly.

The tentacles fired an ink bomb, and Bloopink was trying to get his poison back, so he wasn't able to attack.

"Those things can be dangerous. Though they have low HP, they can deal A LOT to you." C-2 Choppor informed.

"Well, then maybe Yosho's eggs can do something. I'll attack first, and then you go Yosho." Chopper planned.

Chopper spewed out some water at Bloopink and Yosho laid some eggs. He threw them at the tentacles, the ink bombs, and Bloopink. Luckily, the bombs were destroyed.

Bloopink got his ink back, and he was back to being furious.

"Bloobloop! (All right, I'm ready now!)"

"But, I'm gonna get rid of it!" Chopper shot some water at Bloopink, and the poison went away from him. The Blooper moaned as its eyes were sealed shut

Yosho used a Ground Pound on him, and it left Bloopink with only 2 HP left.

"We have this in the bag!" Bruce declared.

But, unfortunately, one of Bloopink's tentacles hit Chopper, and it removed his power. So, he didn't have his Water ability to help him now. But, it didn't matter anyway.

"All right, my Water ability may be gone, but we got this fight! Watch!" Chopper swam to Bloopink, and he stomped on him, which caused the Blooper to fall over. Chopper sunk down to the ground and made a pose. Everyone was glad that the battle was over. But, something else happened too...

Bloopink ended up hitting a part of the wall, making a hole. It was a secret passage! Not only that, but the water around the room began to drain, leaving the whole room with air.

"Oh GOOD! I don't need to worry about swimmin' now!" Yosho cheered as Bloopink shriveled up and shrank. "We're all right!"

"Well! That's that, then! Now there's nothing between us and some treasure, eh? Let's go!" Kolorado panted as he began to head toward the secret pathway up ahead.

But, before Chopper and the others went, they saw a sparkling light. It blew up, and it formed a Bowser Card. This one appeared to be a dark pink star, with an orange ribbon on her. It began to float down to the group.

"This is it. It's time to save the fifth Star Spirit!" Chopper declared as he grabbed the card, and he held it up. It floated up, and it began to spin around.

The Bowser Card was beginning to disappear, and it began to transform back to the fifth Star Spirit, Misstar.

END OF CHAPTER!

Venturing deep into the wet and dark Blooper Cave, Chopper and friends dried up Bloopink…and rescued the fifth Star Spirit, Misstar, from a watery fate. But the "treasure" Kolorado is looking for is yet to be found. Wherever could it be? What's that…? Something…strange…is going on around here…

Chopper then felt some shaking. He noticed some rocks began to come down.

"Yeeeep!" he shrieked as he saw a rock come down.

"Chopper, this way! We must hurry!" the Star Spirit Misstar cried. She headed toward the secret pathway, and it made Chopper and the others follow.

They began to see a stairway leading up that Misstar was heading up. Kolorado was still wandering around for the treasure. When they all got up the steps, they saw a crack in the wall.

"Ah ha! Treasure! …Er, no, it's…some sort of starfish…?" Kolorado gawked as he jumped down a step and began to ponder.

"Mmmmm. This won't do. The adventure's never over until the treasure is found!" Kolorado jumped up for a second, with a light bulb on his head. "Ah! Yes, of course! Perhaps that horrible squid monster had it and was hiding it somewhere! Yes, that's it! I'll just run back and check."

But, there appeared to be trembling. It felt like the cave was about to collapse. "Hm… Hmm? What's this trembling, then? …Probably nothing! Kids with fireworks, no doubt. Now, after that treasure!"

"No! Wait!" Misstar tried to stop him, but it was too late. However, Kolorado came rocketing up after everyone heard a biting sound.

"Yaaargh! OUCH! Oh, it hurts!" Kolorado saw that water was beginning to rise up. The rocks from the ceiling even came down on the doorway to Bloopink's lair.

"Thuh…those are Piranhas, aren't they? The water's coming near, and so are the Piranhas! We must flee! N… Nooo! The treasure is still here! I just know it!"

"Forget the treasure!" Chopper cried. "It's like you're saying you'd just get the treasure before saving your own life!"

"Chopper! This cave is going to collapse in any minute now. It's far too dangerous to go back the way you came. We have to escape another way!" Misstar cried. As Kolorado came back up, but Misstar noticed the crack in the wall.

"I feel a slight wind coming from this cracked wall… Chopper, can you blow up this wall?"

"It looks like it's my time to shine again!" Bruce declared as Chopper threw him at the wall, blowing it up.

Kolorado made a dash into the hole. "Chopper, hurry! The rocks might come down on us right now!" Misstar headed on through, and so did Chopper and his friends.

"We gotta hurry! If we stay here any longer, we'll be dead!" Yosho cried.

They saw some small ledges leading up, so they jumped up them and saw on a skinny tall pillar, a chest. Kolorado was trying to get a hold of it.

"Ah! I knew it! At last! The treasure is right there!" Kolorado cried. "So close… Can't resist… By the Stars, I'll risk my life for that treasure!"

"You're nuts!" Chopper shouted.

"But it's treasure! It's so important to me! I can't leave without it!"

Luckily, Misstar managed to grab Kolorado, and she also grabbed Chopper. Chopper grabbed onto Bow's arm, and she grabbed onto the rest of the group, as if they formed an entire chain.

They saw the rocks coming down, and also the water rising. Kolorado was being held upside down, apparently.

"My treasure! Noooooooo!"

They were able to make it out of the cave, and the treasure chest ended up landing right in front of Yoshgin's house. Kolorado thought the treasure would be gone, but he was wrong… But hey, they got out of the cave!
