The Glitz Pit (Paper Mario: The Thousand Year Door)

"So who was that?" Lightning asked once they got back in. "Bowser, my arch-nemesis." Mario replied.

"Gee, why is this Bowser guy your nemesis?" Goofy asked. "Well, it has something to do with him kidnapping Peach a lot and plotting to destroy the Mushroom Kingdom, but I stop him every time." Mario explained.

"The King of awesomeness...more like the King of Evilness." Spiky Joe said as Shellshock nodded in agreement as Sora pushed the button on the screen.

"Not even a break after The King of Awesomness broke in? You are awesome." Grubba said. "Anyways, you'll be going against Craw-Daddy and I think The Keyblade Mastermind, The Intimidating Whirlwind and The Amazing Koopa fight him. However, I don't want The Intimidating Whirlwind to crush him. You're not The Intimidating Crusher!" Grubba said as it turned off.

"The Intimidating Crusher? That...sounds epic if you think about it." Hamma Jamma said as they walked out to the arena.

"For this match, we have The Keyblade Mastermind, The Intimidating Whirlwind and The Amazing Koopa going against The Dark Gatekeeper, Craw-Daddy!"

"You mortals will make a nice addition to the Underworld." "We'll make you see the light." Sora said.

"Let's get ready...TO BAAAAAAAAAAAAAATLE!" Grubba yelled.

Hades' Infernal Theme (Kid Icarus: Uprising)

Craw-Daddy took out it's spear and ran towards Sora, while Sora took out his Ultima and slashed him, but he blocked with his spear and attempted to smack him on the head, but Koops launched himself at Craw-Daddy, sending him a few feet.

Flurrie then blew wind at Craw-Daddy, but he just smirked. "You foolish mortal think a little wind can stop me?" He asked as he threw the spear at Flurrie, but Sora got in the way and used Reflega, sending the spear back. "What?!" Craw-Daddy exclaimed in shock and then Sora used Zantetsuken to send him away.

"You mortals...won't defeat me...THIS EASILY!" Craw-Daddy yelled. "Oh shut up." Koops said as he slammed into Craw-Daddy, making him yell in pain.

"L-lord Hades...I have failed you..." Craw-Daddy said.

The Glitz Pit

"Looks like Craw-Daddy was NO match for these three!" Grubba exclaimed as they smiled at this.

"What did he mean by Hades?" Yoshi wondered as they got in. "I think he meant the Hades we know." Sora said. "Is this the same Hades that's red and likes to torment my friend Pit?" Mario asked. "No, Hades has blue fire on his head and wants to kill Hercules." "There are TWO Hades?!" Mario exclaimed.

"Gawrsh, I wonder if the Hades we know has a twin brother with the exact same name." Goofy said. "I doubt it." Donald said.

"Goofy might be on to something, but I doubt if it's true." The Koopinator said as Mario pushed the button on the screen.

"You guys keep this place ALIVE! I'm thinking Rawk Hawk is getting nervous." Grubba chuckled. "Anyways, you'll be fighting against Hamma, Bamma and Flare and I choose The Great Gonzales, The Angry Bird and The Brave and Terrible Knight for this match and I'm thinking you guys need something to match these guys." Grubba said as the screen turned off.

"I got a hammer." "I got Fire magic." "And I got my shield." Goofy said as the trio looked at each other and then looked at Hamma Jamma. "Heheh, good luck out there." He said.

"For THIS incredible match, we have The Great Gonzales, The Angry Bird and The Brave and Terrible Knight going against The Big Bad Brute Bros, Hamma, Bamma and Flare!" Grubba exclaimed.

"Let's see what you got, Gonzales." Hamma Jamma said as Mario nodded as he took out his hammer. "Let's get ready...TO BAAAAAAAAAAAATLE!"

Go For It! (Kingdom Hearts)

Mario ran over and hammered Hamma Jamma but he blocked with his own hammer. "I must say, your hammer matches the power of mine, I'm impressed." Hamma Jamma said while Donald used Firaga on Fire Bro while Fire Bro fired fireballs at the fire magic,

Goofy threw his shield at the Boomerang Bro while the Boomerang Bro threw his boomerang, causing both of the weapons to hit each other as they were sent back, as they then ran to each other and hti each other with their own weapons.

Mario hammered Hamma Jamma, as he was sent a few feet. "I'm not done yet." He said as he ran towards Mario and hammered him, but Mario dodged and hammered him but Hamma Jamma blocked it with his hammer. However, the hammer broke one he blocked it. "WHAT?! THIS WAS MY GRANDFATHER'S HAMMER!" He yelled as Mario hammered him away.

Fire Bro was on his knees, breathing heavily. "Man, this duck is really wearing me out..." He muttered as he got a Firaga in the face. "YOOOOW!" He yelled as Donald ran forward and smacked him on the head, knocking him out.

Goofy threw his shield again as the Boomerang Bro threw his boomerang at the same time, however, the shield somehow managed to cut RIGHT through the boomerang, splitting it into two. "Oh come on! That was my favorite!" He exclaimed as the shield slammed into him, knocking him out.

The Glitz Pit

"OOOOH! Hamma, Bamma and Flare were no match for these three considering they were evenly matched!" Grubba exclaimed.

"My poor hammer..." Hamma Jamma said as they returned. "Dude, you have unlimited hammers." Spiky Joe said. "I know...but this one was from my grandfather, it's really special." "Well...now it's crap." Spiky Joe told him.

Just then, the SP Mailbox went off as Mario took a look. "Go to the phone booth outside at the pavilion. From X." Mario read.

"The phone booth is near the item shop when I came to Glitzville." Lightning said as Mario nodded and they walked out.

"Hey, YOU." Said a voice as they turned to see Rawk Hawk. "Here's some advice. Quit stealing the spotlight if you want to have a long life." Rawk Hawk said as he turned around while laughing.

"That's it...LET ME AT 'EM!" Yoshi yelled, but Koops held him back. "Damnit, if you weren't holding me back, I would've destroyed him." Yoshi muttered.

"I wonder if he's the jerk that sent us that jerk email." Sora wondered as they walked away.

Glitzville (Paper Mario: The Thousand Year Door)

"Is that a key in the phone booth?" Goombella asked as soon as they were outside as Sora picked it up, and then the SP Mailbox went off.

"Go to the storage room near Grubba's Office. From X." Sora read.

"Okay, who the hell is this X dude?" Yoshi asked as they walked back to the Glitz Pit.

The Glitz Pit

"So you're telling ME...that you can't figure out WHO went in here?" Jolene asked furiously at a security guard. "Sorry, it must be a rat." "A rat? Seriously? Then could they get through this locked door?" Jolene asked. "Ugh, never mind...just go back to your post..." She muttered as the Security guard nodded and walked back.

"Honestly..." Jolene said as she then noticed Mario and the others. "Oh, uh, Gonzales and friends, what the heck are you doing here?" She asked. "Well we..." Mario started.

"Don't want to hear it, I've had enough stress going on..." Jolene said as she walked past them. "And just so we're clear, you don't have any business snooping around." She said and walked away.

"What's her problem?" Donald asked. "Well, like Miss Jolene said, she's stressed out." Goofy said as Donald rolled his eyes while Sora unlocked the door.

"We meet again, Sora." Said a voice. "Oh hell no..." Sora muttered.

Ms Mowz's theme (Paper Mario: The Thousand Year Door)

"Were you making noise in here?" Goombella asked. "No way, ugly pink Goomba, I'm quiet as a mouse. However they might have heard those poor souls in the other room." Ms Mowz said.

"Poor souls?" Sora asked. "You'll have to find out for yourself, handsome." She said as she jumped down and kissed Sora, causing Yoshi to jawdrop at this. "See you later." She said as she opened the door and ran off.

The Glitz Pit

"Wh-what...DID SHE JUST KISS YOU?!" Yoshi yelled. "I've been kissed four times in this journey, three from that mouse and one from Flurrie." Sora replied.

"Good lord...I need to step up my game..." Yoshi muttered when the Mailbox SP went off.

"Find the Staircase switch to reach the attic. From X." Mario read.

"Staircase switch? What the heck?" Goombella wondered as Flurrie took a good look at the boxes in front of them. "Hmm..." She wondered as she blew wind, as they all blew away as it revealed a switch.

"Paper...boxes?" Mario wondered. "Surprisingly good detail..." He said as Sora kicked the switch, as a staircase dropped down in front of them. "There's the staircase for the attic." Sora said as they walked up the stairs.

"Okay, this door is locked, so I guess we have to go to the other way." Sora said as Mario noticed a Shine Sprite. "Okay, who's leaving these Shine Sprites around? I caught all of them in Delfino." He said as they noticed a gap and a huge block. "I'll carry you over." Yoshi said as Mario jumped on his back as they went over the gap while Flurrie carried Goombella and Koops as Sora, Donald and Goofy glided over to the block as Mario broke it with a good spin technique.

"A hole?" Donald asked. "Well let's check it out." Mario said as they went in the hole.

"Do you hear something?" Koops asked as they walked around until they saw a little peephole. "Hey, wonder what's going on." Sora said as they knelt down to listen to the conversation.

"It was probably just a rat, sir." Jolene said. "Ah, just one of those filthy rats...I see." Grubba said. "Well I guess that answers that question." He said. "I must be going, sir." Jolene said.

"Wait, Jolene. Before you go...do you know anything about the Crystal Stars?" Grubba asked.

Jolene's eyes widened and went pale. "I...uh...n-no, no I haven't." "Okay okay, calm down. You're looking a little pale there. I think this whole fighting business is stressing you out. I think you need to take a coffee break every once in a while, y'know?"

"Y-yes." Jolene said. "Oh! Another thing, have you located KP Pete?" Grubba asked. "No, I haven't. He probably disappeared."

"God DAMNIT, that's the fifth one this year! They keep disappearing left and right!" Grubba exclaimed, as he pounded his desk in frustration. "Why don't we tell the Minor leagues he went home for a spell? No one needs to know about his disappearance."

"Right away sir." Jolene said as she walked out of Grubba's office

"Ugh, the only fighter that's keeping this place straight is Gonzales and his team." Grubba said.

"Did you hear that? I thought KP Pete was retired!" Sora exclaimed. "Man. that's just...crazy." Mario said.

"WHAT THE HECK?!" Grubba yelled. "That dang ceiling is spooking me! What's up there?" He asked.

Sora looked at Donald and took out his Ultima. "Sorry Donald.." He said as he used Thundaga on him.

"Oh, just a duck screaming in pain, oh well, that duck had a good run. Back to the arena!" Grubba exclaimed as he walked out of his office.

"WHAT THE HECK WAS THAT FOR?!" Donald yelled. "Sorry, I panicked." Sora said. "Never mind about that, we gotta get back to the Major Leagues." Mario said as he turned paper thin and went down the vent while Flurrie carried everyone up through the hole.


Somehow, I found Hades' theme to be quite fitting for Craw-Daddy.
