The team screamed down from the top and landed roughly on the ground. Mario, Kevin, Rolf, Nazz, and Johnny landed on their feet. Bow and Parakarry floated down carrying Sarah and Jimmy, Eddy landed on his back, Double-D landed on Eddy and Ed laughed as he landed on both of them, crushing them under his weight. Kooper landed into Rolf's arms while tucked into his shell, Bombette landed in Nazz's arms, and Merlow used his magic to break his fall.
Once everyone recovered from their fall, they scanned around their surroundings. It was not what the team expected when being inside a box.
Everything looked colorful; some consisted of blue to yellow, yellow to green, or red to blue. Some parts on the wall were windows that opened and closed automatically while the gears were shaped in a four-petal flower. They noticed black drawings of faces and flowers around them too. Two Toads in black uniform were standing at their station, which looked like a blue railroad station. The evidence was the railroad tracks that led to the northwest and northeast; however, a railroad cart and a track to the northwest were absent. The sounds were the sounds of mechanical ticking and pumping noises like being in a factory.
"Raise your hand if you didn't see this one coming," Eddy said as everyone raised their hands. "Figures."
"I saw it coming..." Jimmy shyly said but he was ignored.
"All right!" Mario said as he pointed forward. "Let's-a-go!"
First, they went to speak to the conductor at the Blue Station. The conductor informed the team about their train being missing. Without the train, they could not access the other three stations. Ed was disappointed that he could not ride the "Cho-Cho". The group took the first path and saw a bunch of different colored Shy Guys on their way. They were normal ones, but they were tougher than the ones in Toad Town. Fortunately, the team defeated them with no sweat.
"Sorry, little guys. I'll try to go easy on your buddies when I see them." Kevin taunted as he spun his wrench while several Shy Guys laid on the ground with smoking bumps on their heads from the blows they took.
However, there was a Shy Guy dressed in black who was guarding a treasure chest. "Don't take another step!" he said in rapidity. "It's my treasure! All mine! No one can take it! Go away! Go away!"
The team just stared at him until Kooper spoke up. "Then we'll force you to hand it over!" he said as the team got into their battle stance.
"Are you sure about that? Huh?! Huh?! Do you dare fight me?! An Anti Guy?! A Deadly Guy?! You're-" Ed shot the Anti Guy with a boxing glove arrow. Unbelievably, when the Anti Guy retaliated with a tackle, Ed was sent flying to the wall. His attack was so powerful that Ed's Mega Rush Badge started to pulse in light, indicating his life was in danger. The others could not believe that their strongest member was defeated so easily. The Deadly Guy was the most formidable foe they had ever faced.
"I feel...pain," Ed said, groaning.
Sarah, Rolf, Kooper, and Bow darted at the Anti Guy. "You're gonna pay for that!"
"SAPLAKAH!"
Kooper dealt damage to the Anti Guy with his Shell Shot, but he counterattacked Kooper with a deadly punch. Kooper was also sent flying next to Ed, unconscious. Rolf delivered several quick blows with his staff but the Anti Guy blocked them rather skillfully before headbutting him in the stomach, causing Rolf to skid back and fall to one knee, his Power Rush Badge glowing to indicate he was also in the danger zone.
Bow slapped the Anti Guy from behind while Sarah struck him in the side with her Chomp Flail. Anti Guy tried to punch back, but Bow disappeared with Sarah and both reappeared next to the team.
"That was close," Bow said and panted, wiping off her sweat. Sarah was looking at Ed in genuine concern for his well-being as well as Rolf's.
Double-D pulled out his Snowman Doll and read the inscriptions. "'When winter comes, snow shall fall. When snow falls, a snowman shall fall from the dark heavens!'"
He threw the Snowman Doll above the Anti Guy. The Snow Doll grew to five times its size as it stomped on the Anti Guy. He broke out the snowman, but the damage appeared to be successful. The Anti Guy charged straight to Double-D. With death coming closer, Double-D knew he was going to be seriously injured and readied his sword to fight back as best he could. However, a mystical white light enveloped him. When the enemy slammed Double-D, he was pushed back to the wall. Although that attack dealt damage to him, it was not a fatal blow.
"Impossible!" Anti Guy cried. Double-D silently thanked Merlee for her magic back in Dry Dry Outpost. The Anti Guy tried to attack again but Double-D blocked his blows with his sword and the Damage Dodge Badge before retaliating with a slash that caused the black Shy Guy to stumble back. Parakarry then quickly flew in and grabbed Double-D out-of-the-way. Mario, Kevin, and Goombario charged up power when the Anti Guy was busy. They then moved forward and inflicted huge pain against the Anti Guy. The Anti Guy jumped up the air in acrobatic style and struck hard to Goombario's head.
"Dude! Not cool!" Kevin cried angrily as he struck Anti Guy in the gut with his wrench, knocking him back and away from the injured Goombario. Nazz also rushed in and delivered a barrage of punches that the Anti Guy matched blow for blow before one final punch pushed them away from each other.
"BOWLING BOMB!" Bombette cried as she rolled forward in a spin dash after Eddy used a Modify Card to boost her up. Anti Guy saw her coming from behind and couldn't react in time as she exploded, dealing heavy damage.
"You're...pretty good..." Anti Guy groaned. "But...I can still fight!"
"Are you sure, He-Who-Is-Clad-In-Black?!"
"Up, up, and away!"
The Anti Guy saw Rolf throwing Ed into the air, both of them powered up by their Mega Rush Badge and Power Smash Badge. Ed pulled back a sparkling arrow and fired it at the Anti Guy, piercing his chest and sending him to the other side of the wall. Mario quickly checked saw Anti Guy unable to move.
"He's a-done," Mario said. Those who were injured ate several Mushrooms and Super Mushrooms with Merlow using some healing magic to aid them. Mario opened the chest and took out an orange badge shaped in a triangle with a fist as its picture.
Goombario awed at this. "Now that's a rare badge. That's a Power Plus Badge, which increases your strength."
"Double-D should have it. I think he could use the boost." Nazz said as she took the badge and gave it to the sock-hatted boy, who blushed awkwardly.
"I-I don't know about that."
"Come on, Double-D. How else are you gonna swing that blade like a badass?" Eddy said as his friend sighed, accepting the badge reluctantly. With all that out of the way, the team resumed on and fought more Shy Guys along the way. They reached a dead end where they were in a playground. There were giant toy blocks scattered in this room. The Shy Guys here were running with an item on their hands. The team decided to split up into four groups.
Mario and Goombario chased after the first one who was carrying Rowf's calculator. Goombario did a headbonk, following up with a Power Jump from Mario. The second one, with a Cake Mix, was far from Ed's position, so Ed sniped him with a Bob-omb Arrow. The third Shy Guy, with a Mushroom, was hiding behind a toy cylinder block laying down. Parakarry pushed the block until the Shy Guy was stuck between the block and the wall. Double-D swiped the Mushroom and retreated back. Eddy and Bombette finished off the last Shy Guy, who had a Maple Syrup in his hand.
"Man, you guys get all the fun!" Kevin pouted.
"Kevin, we literally just fought the Shy Guy equivalent of a club bouncer less than five minutes ago..." Nazz pointed out.
"And Merlow, Plank, and I weren't even IN that fight!" Johnny complained.
"So far, so good," Bombette said. The team regrouped back to the entrance of Blue Station.
"I'll-a take-a this calculator back to its rightful owner with Goombario and Double-D," Mario said to the team. "The rest of you will continue on to the second path."
Everyone agreed to Mario's plan. Mario, Double-D, and Goombario used the springboard to exit the box. The rest of the team headed to where Mario ordered.
Kammy Koopa zoomed to the end of the Blue Station's second path. She lifted up her wand and shot out a magical beam in front of the treasure chest. A plain-looking Mushroom guarded the treasure chest. "
Here we go," she cackled. "This Mushroom should stop Mario from proceeding any further..."
She then frowned a bit. "But it is strange. Is Mario really afraid of this?" She shrugged. "Well, whatever. It's King Bowser's order. Time to head to the next station."
She zoomed out of this place and flew to the next station, not knowing Velhallen Beo was watching from the shadows with a bemused smirk on his face.
Meanwhile, the team fought off even more Shy Guys. They encountered a new type of Shy Guys. It was a Shy Guy dressed in a court jester costume known as the Groove Guys.
"I wish Goombario was here right now," Nazz said. The Groove Guys performed a dizzy attack, striking all the team members. Most were in a state of vertigo, but not Eddy thanks to his Feeling Fine Badge. Eddy smacked the Groove Guys silly with his yo-yos before tying one up with them and using them as a makeshift wrecking ball. Parakarry and Kooper slammed every enemy with their shells and Merlow blasted bolts of starry magic.
Once the team regained from their dizziness, they resumed on. There were toy blocks as obstacles to this path. The team had to use the jack-in-the-box to lift themselves over the blocks. Ed wanted to keep them, but the team had to continue forward. In the middle section of the room, they encountered one Shy Guy and two Shy Guys with balloons attached to them called Sky Guys
"It's a shame, really," Parakarry said. "They think they have an air advantage, but they're wrong!" He zoomed to all the balloons the Sky Guys equipped. They fell down the ground and became regular Shy Guys. Nazz and Johnny pounced on all the Shy Guys, leaving their partners to finish the job. After navigating through the building, obtaining a Star Piece and a Thunder Bolt, everyone found a Mushroom in front of the chest.
"Huh?" Kooper asked. "What's a Mushroom doing here in front of that chest?"
"You think it's poisonous?" Bombette asked.
"Ed is hungry!" Ed said, devouring the Mushroom in one gulp. "Good tasty Mushroom!"
"Whoever placed that Mushroom is a dumbass," Eddy said.
"No shit." Kevin agreed.
Johnny opened the chest and took out a blue key, holding it in the air as a strangely nostalgic jingle played. "Could this be an item stolen by the Shy Guys?"
"More importantly, what was that jingle?" Sarah asked. "And why do I have the weirdest sense of deja vu?"
"Let's head back, everyone," Bow said. When the team reached back to the station, they saw Mario and Goombario sitting on the stairs. They noticed Mario with a new badge on. It was a square with the Star Pieces to make it look like another square inside.
"How's it going, Mario?" Eddy asked.
"I returned the calculator and received a new badge," Mario said. "It's called I Spy, which alerts me if a Star Piece is nearby. I found four Star Pieces after that."
Eddy grinned. "Sweet! Gimme, gimme, gimme!"
Mario rolled his eyes and gave Eddy the Star Pieces, much to his delight.
"Did you guys find something?"
"All we found was a key," Kooper answered. "It could be from someone in Toad Town."
"You fellows go while me, Mario, and Goombario will stay here," Double-D said. Mario and Goombario agreed with the plan while they watched the team flying off from the box.
Back at Toad Town, the team exited out of the abandoned house.
"Any ideas whose the owner of this key, Rolfy-Boy?" Eddy asked.
Rolf was examining the blue key with Johnny. "Rolf cannot discern where the key must fit. Life has many doors but only the right key will open the way."
"That sucks... We might have to talk to everyone." The team decided to enter the second shop in Toad Town, which was next to where they are.
The Toad manager was found at the far end. "If you purchasing an item here, then I'm afraid I can't help you," he said with an apologetic face.
"Why?" Parakarry asked.
"See that door behind me?" The team looked to see a door with a lock attached. "One of the Shy Guys stole my storeroom key, so I can't access my storeroom."
"Dude, total coincidence!" Nazz exclaimed as Rolf gave her the key to present to the manager. "Could this be your key?"
The Toad managed to widen his eyes. "Th-that's it! Oh, thank you so much!"
He grabbed the key and unlocked the door. "As a reward, you can take anything inside my storeroom."
"Whoooo! Free stuff!" Johnny cheered.
Everyone went inside and spotted three useful items: Snowman Doll, Volt Shroom, and a Dizzy Dial. There was also a toy train as well, so Ed decided to have it for himself. The team left the store and headed back to the abandoned house.
"Prepare to lift off!" Ed said, playing with his train. "Check your fuel and hold on tight because we're going beat the aliens!" When Ed entered the room with the box, he accidentally tripped to the floor, releasing his toy train into the box.
Meanwhile, Mario, Double-D, and Goombario played around with the giant toy blocks near the station. They actually spelled "Ed Edd n Eddy" with those blocks.
"I claim this box in the name of me, Double-D, and Mario!" Goombario said with a beaming smile. Suddenly, they heard a giant sound coming from the railroad track. When they turned around, they saw a train on the tracks. The rest of the team came by shortly.
"That was very fortunate of you, Ed," Double-D said, smiling at him as he could only guess it was related to his lovable oaf's shenanigans.
"How did they even get that train?" Mario asked as the group came down. They told him, Double-D and Goombario a short story. With the train ready, they talked to the conductor and boarded the train. It was very crowded with nice people, plus the conductor, in it. Fortunately, almost everyone can handle it as the train headed to the northeast station.
"Where are we heading?" Double-D asked the conductor.
"This train will lead you to Pink Station," the Toad conductor replied. "Shy Guy's Toy Box is an oval area with four stations. The Blue Station is at the south, Pink Station is at the east, Green Station is at the north, and Red Station is at the west."
"Can't...breathe..." Eddy said.
"Losing...oxygen..." Double-D said.
"I think I pulled something!" Jimmy whined.
After a minute of riding, they finally stopped at Pink Station. Everyone let out a sigh of relief after getting off that cramped train.
"Rolf has never been more hard-pressed than the time he had to carry Nana's bending sofa!"
"You mean a recliner, Rolf..." Kevin deduced.
Everyone looked around. The new area was the same thing, except the station's roof was pink. A lever switch was located behind two glass walls on the other side of the track.
"This is not good," the conductor said, frowning. The team saw the railroad track missing part of its track. "We had a broken track a long time ago, so we fix it by flipping it over. Someone must've turned the lever back."
"I guess it's our a-job to fix it," Mario said. "All we have to do is a-flip the lever, and it'll be a piece of cake."
"Cake? Where?!" Ed asked as everyone ignored him as they explored the area. They found a chest that contained a mailbag, much to Parakarry's delight. Mario also found a Star Piece underneath the floor.
Kammy Koopa approached the treasure chest with her magical broom and materialized a Thunder Rage. Unlike a Thunder Bolt with a cloud, this item was a thunderbolt shape with no clouds. Still feeling doubts about this, she decided to brush off her doubts for the final time and zoomed to Green Station.
"Honestly, it's so ridiculous how Bowser doesn't see how his plans fail...then again, he won't have to worry either way for long..." Velhallen Beo chuckled as he watched the events unfold.
It was normal for the team to battle opponents, obtaining items, gathering coins, and earning fighting experiences. Along the way, Bombette slammed forward into a Shy Guy. A Shy Guy with a floating cup ship appeared and healed its teammate with its golden radiant ray.
"They must be Medi Guy," Goombario said. "As you can see, they heal their allies."
"If Team Fortress 2 plus common sense has taught me anything, it's to ALWAYS go for the goddamn Medic!" Kevin said as he lunged towards the Medi Gun and slammed him like a baseball with his wrench.
"What's with the Shy Guys having 'Guy' in their names, anyway?" Eddy asked.
"SPOOK SNEAK!" Sarah cried as she inserted a Modify Card into her Star Caller. Bow glowed bright green and began zipping around at super-speeds to the point she became an almost unseeable blur! The Shy Guys didn't even stand a chance.
"Aww yeah, the babes prevail!" Sarah cheered as she and Bow high-fived.
Similar to Blue Station, the team had to use the jack-in-the-box to advance forward. While on their way, they opened a chest and took out a blue diamond badge
"Another rare badge! That's a Defend Plus Badge, which increases your defense." Goombario explained.
"I believe it would be nice to let Kevin have this one," Double-D asked.
"You'd let me have this? Heh, I always did like you the best, Double-Dweeb." Kevin chuckled, touched at Double-D's suggestion before applying the badge.
After passing through colorful buildings, by tricking the Shy Guys to open a secret passage, and defeating more Shy Guys, they made it to the other side of this path. Before they could actually make it to the end, the team found a badge composed of ice, which was shaped like a snowman.
"That's an Ice Power Badge. It protects the user from, fire and deals twice the damage to fiery enemies!"
"Rolf shall use the magic of this ice to deliver a freezing rain to his enemies! Like Papa's Ice Cube baths!"
Soon, the group came across another chest, a Thunder Rage in front of it.
"Huh, that's weird. It's kinda like the first one." Sarah said.
"What do you mean?" Mario asked.
"There was a Mushroom guarding the chest in Blue Station," Parakarry answered.
"And it was delicious!" Ed added while licking his lips. Double-D unlocked the chest and took out a frying pan, holding it in the air as the strangely nostalgic jingle played again.
"There it is again, that jingle!" Sarah exclaimed as she looked around. "Does anybody else hear that?!"
"This must belong to the chef from the restaurant," Goombario said, then everyone went back to the entrance of Pink Station.
"Goombario, Johnny, Parakarry, and I will return these items to their rightful owners," Double-D said as they boarded on the train.
"Take care," Mario said, waving the four back while they headed back to Blue Station, and then Toad Town. Everyone else resumed to the second path, which involved going around the track to activate the lever switch. Although they proceeded with caution, two Shy Guys got off from their hiding spot and launched a surprise attack. These two successfully slammed their hammers to Ed and Mario.
"Spy Guys!" Goombario said, gasping. Rolf used his Dizzy Attack Badge to inflict dizziness on the Spy Guys. Sarah and Eddy took them down with their weapons. Once Mario and Ed recovered, they proceeded forward but stopped at their tracks. It was a Shy Guy, but he was obese, or excessively fat. He had a knife and a fork in his hands. Strangely, the team did not feel any hostility from him.
"Holy moly..." Eddy said in awe.
"He's as humongous as Jimmy when he was a sumo wrestler!" Ed said with his hands in the air as Jimmy giggled, having some fond memories of that particular moment, even though Sarah wasn't as amused.
"Uh...excuse us, but you're in the way," Bow said to the obese Shy Guy.
"Sorry..." he said in a deep but friendly voice, "but I'm so hungry that I can't move from this spot. Everyone calls me Gourmet Guy, by the way."
"Wanna half-eaten pretzel?" Ed asked, offering a pretzel from his jacket. Gourmet Guy ate it without any hesitation.
"It's not enough to fill my tummy. It's okay, I guess."
"Okay?!" everyone, except Ed, asked in disbelief.
"Look, pal!" Eddy said, stepping in. "Either you move that big fat butt of yours, or we're gonna kick your butt!"
"But I'm so hungry..." Gourmet Guy said, quivering his lips.
"Argh!" The team realized they could not go around it as long as the Gourmet Guy was sitting from his position. After three minutes of doing nothing, a train passed by, which was Double-D, Goombario, Johnny, and Parakarry. After a minute, they came by shortly.
"What's the hold-up, fellows?" Double-D asked as Johnny stood behind him with a cake in one hand and Plank in the other.
Bombette pointed at the Gourmet Guy. "This guy won't move unless we fill up his stomach with food!"
Double-D smiled. "Well, this is convenient. I happen to hold the sweet taste of all mother nature's food."
"Let's hope it works," Kooper said as Double D offered his cake to the Gourmet Guy.
"Oh!" Gourmet Guy said, eyes bulging out and mouth gaping. "Ohh... Ohh! Amazing! Simply amazing! Absolutely tasty!"
He ran around the whole room, defying the laws of gravity. He was even running on midair. Finally, he exited out of the box with a huge jump like a rocket. A cookbook landed on Ed's head, which he took off and smiled as he waved Gourmet Guy off. Nobody else had anything to say after what they just witnessed.
"Well, at least he was happy!" Nazz said, looking on the bright side of things.
The team picked up from where they left off and crossed over the railroad tracks. Along the way, there was another type of Shy Guys. This one was different from the rest since this Guy was literally on fire.
"It's a Pyro Guy!" Goombario said, gasping. "He must be the strongest out of all the Shy Guys!"
"NOT FOR ROLF!" Declared the Son of a Shepard as his Ice Power Badge activated and coated his staff in an icy aura, which he used to beat the Pyro Guy unmercifully until he was out cold.
"Nice job, Stretch!" Eddy cheered. After passing through obstacles, the heroes finally found the lever. Mario pulled the lever back where the broken railroad track flipped over. With that, they could travel to Green Station. The team went back to the train and headed to Green Station.
"Green Station, passengers!" the conductor said to the team. "Here we are!" The train stopped in front of the station. Moments later, everyone fell out of the train.
"I can't feel my arms anymore," Kooper said, rubbing his right arm.
"I cannot tolerate this anymore!" Bow said, seething with rage.
"You and me both, sister!" Sarah growled in agreement. The team scanned at the tracks and saw part of the tracks empty.
Eddy groaned. "Here we go again...".
Everyone also saw four blocks, which were green, yellow, red, and blue with a picture of stars. Unfortunately, they could not do anything about that, so they continued on.
Kammy set out her last item, which was a Super Soda. "That's three items," she said. "Now I'll have to go back and wait for the results." She finished up her task and zoomed out of the box.
Velhallen Beo was trying his hardest not to laugh at the stupidity of it all.
The team saw a giant yellow conveyor belt in front of them. There were also fences along the way, but there was one fence that blocked the entire belt. The fences appeared too small to fit through, and climbing them would be dangerous because of their height.
"It looks like we have to rely on the big guys," Goombario said.
"We're counting on you!" Mario said, nodding.
"Don't mess this one up," Eddy said, crossing his arms before frowning. "And make sure you gather all the coins."
"Ignore Eddy," Double D said, then smiled to Ed, Kooper, Kevin, Rolf, and Merlow. "We're relying on you five to complete the task."
"You can count on us, everyone!" Ed said as he stepped forward to the conveyor belt, but tripped down while the belt carried him away. Kooper, Rolf, Merlow, and Kevin followed Ed.
"He has doomed us all," Eddy murmured.
"Once again, we're in agreement..." Sarah sighed.
"North to Alaska!" Ed said, then laughed as he rolled across the tracks. Kevin scoffed and bonked the dope on the head with his wrench though Ed was still grinning.
"Focus, Dork!" The jock said as Merlow used a spell to levitate himself, Kooper, Rolf, Ed, and Kevin into the air. They were able to pass the fence and move on. They took down a yellow Shy Guy, who was carrying a mysterious note. No one could read it, and Kooper concluded that they needed a smart person to translate it. After the conveyor belt, Team Ed saw a giant red slot machine.
"Let's test our luck!" Kooper said, hitting the block to activate the slot machine. The three slots spun and started to slow down. The first was a star and the next was a star, too. Team Ed stared at the last slot which slowed down to the final star. Suddenly, it moved to a Shy Guy, so their award was a Mushroom.
"How unfair!"
"The best prize ever!" Ed said, eating the Mushroom.
"Next time, let Rolf have the fungal delicacy!" Rolf said in annoyance as Ed gave his friend an apologetic look.
"Sorry, Rolf."
The five proceeded forward where there were moving blocks ahead. After careful navigation and stumbling, not to mention another Star Piece, they took the Super Soda with no questions asked.
Kooper opened the chest and obtained a dictionary. "This must be the last thing that was stolen from the Shy Guys."
"We better go back with the others," Bow said.
"Follow the leader!" Ed said, running off. Later, the rest of the team saw the five on their way here.
"'Bout time you got here!" Eddy said, raising his hands in the air. "Did you realize how long we have to wait?"
"Eddy, it was only seven minutes," Double D said.
"Fat chance! It felt like hours to me!"
"Plank says 'one minute of patience is ten years of peace'!" Johnny said as Eddy rolled his eyes in response.
"So what did you boys bring?" Mario asked Ed's group.
"We've found a doggy disk and a tissue," Ed answered, presenting the items he had found.
"That's...a dictionary and a paper," Parakarry said.
Double-D took these items from Ed. "Intriguing..." he said. "I have never seen this type of cursive handwriting before, but I can't decipher it. Everyone, I'll be back soon to deliver these items."
"What?! We have to wait more?!" Eddy asked.
"Be patient, Eddy. You need to comprehend that, or there will be terrible consequences." Double-D and Goombario stepped inside the train, rode to Blue Station, and jumped out of the box.
"Is it weird I actually agree with Double-Dweeb?" Kevin asked as most of the group shook their heads.
At Toad Town, Double D recognized this dictionary belonged to Russ T. when he met him before he went to Dry Dry Desert. He and Goombario walked to Russ T.'s house.
"Russ?" Double-D said.
"Oh!" Russ T. said in surprise. "You're the one who I gave my book to you."
"Yes, well, we have your dictionary back."
"R-really?" Double D took out the dictionary and handed it to him. "Thank you so much, young scholar! By the way, I haven't even heard of your name yet."
"You may call me Eddward, or Double-D. I've also come here for you to assist my quest." He gave Russ T. the note.
He examined it for a moment. "Eureka! This writing is in the language of the Shy Guys. I can translate this for you."
"What does it say?" Goombario asked.
"'Hit yellow, green, red, and then blue.'"
Double D widened his eyes. "Why there were blocks that specifically matched what you just said! Thank you for your wisdom!"
"It's no big deal, Eddward. Let me give you this." After he gave Double-D a Star Piece, Double-D and Parakarry went back to the box to return back to Green Station.
"I hope they haven't waited that long," Goombario said.
"If you say something like that, something bad will happen," Double-D said to his soul partner, who blushed sheepishly. They got off the train and saw something unexpected. Mario, Kevin, Rolf, Johnny, Nazz, Sarah, Jimmy, Parakarry, Bow, and Merlow were sitting on the stairs as normal, but the real problem was the others. Ed and Kooper were being chased by Eddy, who was carrying a toy block as a sword. Bombette ran next to him with her fuse lit up.
"It wasn't me!" Ed said. "It wasn't us!"
"Shut up, Ed!" Eddy said. "I know you did it!" They ran around in circles while the rest stood there watching.
"Do...I want to know?" Double D asked Mario.
"I...think you shouldn't know," Mario replied with a worried look.
"It's...hard to describe," Parakarry said. Double-D and Goombario decided not to look further into this.
"Oh! Uh, have you found anything, Double-D?"
"I want you to hit those blocks in this order: yellow, green, red, and blue." Mario and Johnny pulled out their hammers and struck the blocks in order. The walls next to the empty tracks formed a track that fits on the track. Even though they could go to the last station, the others were not ready.
Mario sighed and frowned. "Double-D, do you have a Dizzy Dial on you?"
"I sure do." Mario received Double- D's Dizzy Dial from him and threw it to the four. They were trapped inside an invisible semi-sphere. Everything inside was spinning around like crazy. When it was done, the rest were inflicted with dizziness, minus Eddy, though he still noticed it.
"What the heck was that for?!" Eddy asked.
"To stop your animosity!" Double-D replied, putting his hands on his hips. "I have no idea what's going on, other than the fact we had wasted an item, but we're ready to move forward."
The rest had to cure the others before they could continue. Everyone boarded the train and rode to Red Station.
"Hernia! I got a hernia, Plank!" Johnny cried.
