Okay readers, this is part 1 of the Interlude to this story.

Now what is Peach up to this time? Let's find out.

PINGAS.

Meanwhile, in the X-Nauts' HQ, Grodus was furiously talking to Crump through a holographic TV screen.

Grodus: Grrr... YOU FAILED ME AGAIN LORD CRUMP!? YOU SICKEN ME!

Crump: Look, sorry dude, I didn't think they had it in 'em.

Grodus: SHUT YOUR TRAP! Just stand by until I give you your next order... and Crump, think of this as your last chance... understood?

Crump: Roger that.

Grodus: Then leave.

Crump then vanishes along with the hologram.

Grodus: HEY! YOU THERE!

A random X-Naut then shows up.

X-Naut: What is it, sir?

Grodus: Tell the Shadow Sirens to attack Mario again... and tell them not to fail this time...

X-Naut: You got it sir.

The X-Naut then leaves.

Grodus: I have 1 Crystal Star in my hand, and Mario has 5 of them... I must take some measures.

Meanwhile, Peach was taking another headstart to TEC before...

?: Find the Computer Room!

Whoops. Too late.

Peach: Man, that voice is always one step ahead of me.

She then faces the screen.

Peach: TEC has called me in here again. I wonder what it is, this time.

TEC: ...

Peach then looks at TEC.

Peach: TEC, what's up?

TEC: I... must request that you do something a bit dangerous this time.

Peach: Dangerous?

TEC: I need you to sneak into Grodus room, look for a data disk and connect the network to my network.

Peach: Okay, but, will I be disguised again?

TEC: Not this time, for no one other than Sir Grodus is allowed in his room, as guards prevent entry. There is a way though.

Peach: What do I do.

TEC: Head to the Potion Room first off, that's to the left of when you get out of the elevator.

Peach: Okay.

Peach then heads to the potion room.

Meanwhile, 3 X-Naut PhDs were getting anxious... BECAUSE DEXTER'S DAD WAS PLAYING AROUND WITH THE POTIONS!

X-Naut PhD #1: YO DUDE! PUT THAT DOWN!

X-Naut PhD #2: YEAH! YOU DON'T KNOW WHAT IT DOES!

Dexter's Dad: Come on guys. I'm the man of the hour. Besides, what bad can it do?

Suddenly, he gulps one of the potions, and then... BANG! He turns into a potted plant where his head's the only thing present. He then started saying a certain phrase.

Dexter's Dad: Feed me! FEEEEEEED MEEE! FEEEEEEEEEEEEEEDDDDDD MEEEEEEEEEEEE!

X-Naut PhD #3: This guys a total nut job.

Dexter's Dad: FEEEEEEEEEEEEEEDDDDD MEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!

The 3 X-Naut PhDs then give him a gulp of red potion, causing him to be hideously ugly (his appearance was identical to when Dexter improved his eye vision in "Sore Eyes")

Dexter's Dad: Hey, did you guys get new pajamas?

X-Naut PhDs: AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH! IT'S A HIDEOUS UGLY LOOKING MONSTER!

They all then fled for their lives.

Dexter's Dad: Alright fine, your majesty. Next time, I'll make sure I shave and shower for his Highness.

He then notice how cool his nose looks when suddenly, Peach came in and saw Dexter's Dad the hideous looking monster.

Peach: Uh, I'm grossed out. TEC, who is that guy?

TEC: Nevermind him. Make a potion that'll make you invisible.

Peach: Okay, how do I do it?

Dexter's Dad: Hey miss, look at what I do.

He then started using his nose as a trumpet, which blew the four colored potions into a specific order.

Dexter Dad: Oh, what's this button do?

He presses a button causing the machine to activate and squirt potions into a glass measuring cup, and then it was heated up for 30 seconds. Peach then took a sniff of it and gulped it down causing her to... TURN INVISIBLE! BUT NOT HER CLOTHES!

Peach: I DID IT TEC!

TEC: Great, but take your clothes off. Even the potion can't make that invisible.

Dexter's Dad: Oooo... I'm a lucky guy. DO IT!

Peach: O...K... hold on.

Peach then takes off her clothes. She's completely invisible.

Dexter's Dad: Man, I wanted to see some breasts man.

HEY, YOU HAVE A WIFE ALREADY DUDE!

Dexter's Dad: Good point.

TEC: Now go to Grodus' Room and do that data disk task.

Peach: Okay.

She then leaves the room.

Dexter's Dad: Aw well.

He then kept using his nose as a trumpet.

Meanwhile, Peach snuck into Grodus' Room, got the data disk, connected it to his computer, and transfered all data to TEC.

Peach: There we go, now let's put this thing back like I was never here.

She then went back to the potion room, confusing all the X-Nauts and stuff. She then saw Dexter's Dad blowing his nose like a trumpet.

Peach: Man that's the grossest thing I have ever seen.

TEC: Ignore him. Just drink the green potion and you'll turn back to normal.

Peach: WAIT JUST A SECOND!

Peach then went and put her clothes back on. She then went to drink the green potion and then turned back to normal.

TEC: Great, now PLEASE RETURN TO THE COMPUTER ROOM!

Peach: Okay.

She then left. As soon as she left, the 3 X-Naut PhDs from before came back in, along with an Elite X-Naut.

PhDs: THAT'S THE GUY THAT'S BEEN CAUSING US TROUBLE!

Dexter's Dad: What are you talking about?

Elite X-Naut: GUESS I GOTTA TEACH YOU A LESSON!

The Elite X-Naut then tossed a dart at Dexter's Dad causing him to turn back to normal, and passed out.

Elite X-Naut: Let's get him out of here.

The X-Nauts then carried Dexter's Dad out of there.

Meanwhile, Peach went back to TEC.

Peach: So how is it coming along TEC.

TEC: It's still processing, but according to the info...

Peach: What?

TEC: I can't make mistakes right now. Now please send a message to your man Mario now.

Peach: Got it!

Peach then sends an email to Mario.

TEC: Okay, we are done for now. Please return to your holding room.

Peach then started to leave.

TEC: Thank you Peach.

Peach: Why you're welcome TEC.

Peach then exits.

TEC: Princess Peach... I will protect you...

And now we continue on.

That's it for now. Thought that Dexter's Dad playing around with the potions was hilarious, then your gonna get a kick out of next when Bowser and his villainous squad are in Twilight Town and they go to war against Lord Crump. Tune in readers.
