(A/N: So we've made it all the way to Chapter 3. Perhaps Mario and Luigi will put their plan into play here? More importantly, what is their plan? The only way those questions are gonna get answered is if you start reading!)
The next morning was the last day of the trip. Mario, Luigi, Peach, and Daisy met for breakfast to discuss what they should do.
"I think we've seen pretty much everything the Beanbean Kingdom has to offer, but we've still got today. I think we should revisit one of the places we've been to, like Chucklehuck Woods or Hoohoo Mountain." Peach said.
"Actually, Peach, there's one place we didn't go to yet. How about we visit Joke's End?" Mario suggested.
"Joke's End? Why do you want to go there?" Peach asked.
"Mario and I were thinking about seeing it again, but we don't wanna go without you or Daisy." Luigi said.
"Guys, are you sure that's a good idea? You know why you had to go there last time." Daisy said, remembering what they told her on the way to the Beanbean Kingdom.
"Yes, but... we have some... unfinished business to take care of there. And we might need help from you girls." Mario said.
"What do you say, Peach? Do you really wanna go back to Joke's End?" Daisy asked her cousin in a whisper.
"Well, I did say I wanted to revisit some places to replace the bad memories, and I didn't really see much of Joke's End, despite the fact Mario led me out of there when he and Luigi tricked Bowletta into letting me go. Plus, I think Mario and Luigi really want to take care of whatever it is they have to do. It must be pretty important." Peach said.
"So we're going?" Luigi asked.
"Yes. We'll go." said Peach.
"Okay, then." Daisy said.
"Wait a sec! It's cold there. Perhaps we should get some sweaters before we go." said Mario.
So everyone stopped at one of the stores at Little Fungitown and got some sweaters, some nice souvenirs from a better trip to the Beanbean Kingdom.
As they went to the Warp Pipe, Mario explained that they had to warp because of how he and Luigi had to get to Joke's End before they found the Warp Pipe.
"There's no way all of us could ride a Luigi surfboard." Mario said.
"Oh my gosh! Luigi, were you okay?" Daisy asked.
"Of course. I don't think I'd be here if I wasn't okay." Luigi replied.
"Oh yeah." Daisy realized.
When they got there, Mario and Luigi ran straight up to the front entrance, leaving their girlfriends in the dust.
And who should show up at the entrance but Jojora. She was less than happy when she saw Mario and Luigi standing there.
"Oh, look who it is! The friend-killing jerks!" Jojora exclaimed in unhappiness.
"And if it isn't the lying liar who lies!" Luigi said.
"You're calling me a liar?!" Jojora asked.
"We're not calling you for dinner." Mario said, and Luigi started snickering.
"Whatever! I wouldn't accept a call from you if you were the last men alive! And if you came here looking for an apology, you're out of luck, 'cause I'm not going to give you one! You don't deserve one after what you did! I don't want to see you, and neither do my other friends, 'cause no girls would ever like you!" Jojora said.
"What was that?!" a couple of feminine voices were heard saying.
"What? Who said that?" Jojora asked, looking around.
"We did." the same voices replied.
"Show yourselves!" Jojora said.
Mario and Luigi moved aside, and Peach and Daisy came walking up.
"Don't tell me that you girls came here with them!" Jojora said, referring to the Mario Bros.
"So what if we did?" Peach asked.
"And who do you think you are, anyways?" Daisy asked.
"Oh right, you haven't met." Mario said, before starting to make the introductions, "Girls, this is Jojora."
"Hi." Peach said.
"What's up?" Daisy asked.
"Please don't tell me you're with those guys..." Jojora replied.
"And Jojora, we'd like you to meet our girlfriends, Princess Peach and Princess Daisy!" Luigi said, motioning to each girl as he said her name.
"WHAAAAAAT?! You're dating them?! After what they did to my friend?! How can you do that?!" Jojora screamed at Peach and Daisy.
"They're not you. That's why they're dating us." Luigi replied.
"And if they're dating us, we're obviously better than you think!" Mario said.
"No, this isn't right. They must be under a spell or something, 'cause no girl, princesses included, would ever like you!" Jojora said.
"(gasp) How dare you say that to Luigi! You take that back, witch!" Daisy yelled.
"Make me!" Jojora challenged.
"Gladly!" said Daisy, and she was preparing to give Jojora a good slap across her face.
However, before she could do so, Luigi held Daisy back.
"No, no. Not yet, sweetie. Let's wait a bit." Luigi said to Daisy.
"But she can't say that to you!" Daisy snarled.
"I know. But you might not wanna do anything to her. She knows magic." Luigi said.
Daisy knew that messing with someone who knows magic has dire consequences, so she reluctantly backed down.
"Okay, but if she says one more rotten thing to you or Mario, don't hold me back!" Daisy told him.
"If she does, go right ahead. I won't stop you." Luigi said.
"Daisy and I fell in love with Mario and Luigi for good reasons! But I am curious. What did they do to your friend?" Peach asked.
"Oh, that's easy! They killed her!" Jojora shouted.
"Why?" Peach asked.
"'Cause they're JERKS!" Jojora complained.
"No, that's you! You're the Queen of Jerks!" Mario shouted.
"I am not! Didn't I let you guys decide which of my friends I should invite? What kind of jerk lets her guests decide who to invite?" Jojora asked.
"A jerk who knew that her guests were going to invite trouble, no matter which friend they picked!" Luigi said.
"She was not trouble!" Jojora insisted.
"Yes, she was!" Mario said.
"You treated her like an enemy!" Jojora said.
"Because you decided to sic her on us!" Luigi said.
"I had to! You guys were so stubborn and annoying!" Jojora said.
"No, you're wrong! When we came here, it was just to rescue my girlfriend! That's all we wanted to do! If your stupid friend hadn't acted like she was going to rape me and Luigi, she'd still be alive!" Mario said.
"How dare you say such a thing about her! All she wanted was to be friends with you guys! Now I'm going to avenge her, just like I should've done when you went and..." Jojora started, and she reached for her wand... except for one small problem...
"My wand?! Where is it?! I had it on me the whole time! I know I didn't drop it!" Jojora said, frantically searching her pockets for it.
"Looking for this?!" Mario asked, holding up something familiar. It was Jojora's wand! Somehow, he'd filched it from her!
"What the-?! How did you get my wand?! You couldn't have taken it from me! I had my eyes on you this whole time!" Jojora said.
"So you say. But when Luigi and Daisy were talking, I saw you looking at them, and your wand was peeking out of your pocket. Since you weren't paying attention to me, or your wand, I took it! And you didn't even notice that it was missing until you decided that you wanted to use it!" Mario said, smirking as he held the wand.
"Give it back to me! I'm the only one who knows how to use it!" Jojora demanded.
"Luigi, what do you think I should do?" Mario asked.
"I don't think you should give it back." Luigi said.
"Right. She might do something we don't want her to do. We should hold onto this." Mario said.
"If you don't give me back my wand right now, I'm gonna let you have it..." Jojora started, getting angrier by the second.
"I don't think you'll be able to do anything. We have your wand, and that immediately gives us the upper hand. So if you try to do anything to us, you instantly lose." Luigi said, smirking.
That did it. Jojora finally lost her temper!
"ARGH! WHY DIDN'T I JUST KILL YOU GUYS WHEN I HAD THE CHANCE?! I SHOULD HAVE DONE THAT WHEN YOU KILLED MY FRIEND! YOU GUYS ARE THE MOST STUBBORN, ANNOYING, AND UNCOOLEST JERKS IT HAS EVER BEEN MY MISFORTUNE TO KNOW! I WILL GET MY WAND BACK, AND WHEN I DO, I'LL USE IT TO DESTROY YOU AND MAKE THOSE IDIOT GIRLS FORGET THEY EVER KNEW YOU, MUCH LESS LOVED YOU, 'CAUSE HOW THEY CAN LOVE MURDERERS LIKE YOU IS BEYOND ME!" Jojora screamed, and she was just about ready to rip Mario and Luigi apart.
Well, as you might have guessed, Peach and Daisy were NOT going to stand for this! No one, not even Bowser, would get away with saying something like that to Mario and Luigi.
"THAT TEARS IT!" Daisy shouted, and before Jojora knew what was happening, she found herself being attacked by two VERY furious princesses. Yup, Peach and Daisy attacked her. Peach was reacting the way she would when she used the Rage Vibe during the time she had to rescue Mario, Luigi, and Toad from Bowser. Daisy was just attacking Jojora like a crazy person.
Jojora hadn't reacted quick enough, so she was not at all prepared for the attack. She tried to scream, but Daisy kicked her in the throat, cutting her off. She tried to move, but Peach and Daisy were coming at her from every direction. She never saw it coming, and she was at the mercy of the princesses.
When the dust cleared, Jojora was in the worst shape she had ever been in. Peach and Daisy appeared to be unscathed, but they were still angry and not finished with Jojora... yet.
"If you ever say anything like that about our boyfriends again, we promise that you're going to regret the day you messed with them!" Peach swore.
"And you're lucky we didn't kill you! We should have killed you for saying that you should've done that to Mario and Luigi! If you ever antagonize them again, we'll come back and finish you off! Is that clear?!" Daisy asked, still seething with rage.
It took a while before Jojora was able to speak. Daisy had kicked her in the throat so many times that it hurt to talk.
"C-c-cl... ear... Per... fect... ly... c-cl... ear..." Jojora croaked out as best she could.
"Good! But just to make sure you don't do this again..." Peach said.
"Why don't you guys let her have it?" Daisy asked Mario and Luigi.
"Y-you'll... g-give me b-b-back... my w-wand?" Jojora asked hopefully.
"No. That would be stupid." Mario said, handing the wand to Peach for safe-keeping.
"We'll give you a Bros. Attack instead, cretin!" Luigi said, and he and Mario performed Bounce Bros., knocking Jojora unconscious.
"Good job, boys!" Daisy said as Peach handed the wand back to Mario.
"But we're not done yet." Luigi said.
"What are you going to do?" Peach asked.
"Watch." said Mario. He used Jojora's wand to chain her to a pillar in the room, and made the key appear a few inches away from her. Then he used a spell that made the wand turn invisible, and set it a few feet away from Jojora.
"Now let's look around." Mario said, taking Peach's hand. Luigi took Daisy's hand, and they walked around Joke's End.
"I cannot believe the awful things that witch said about you guys!" Daisy said.
"We can't believe how badly the two of you beat her up!" Mario said.
"Mario, there is a limit to how much I can take. When people threaten my friends, especially my boyfriend, they're going to find themselves in the kind of trouble they can't get out of." Peach said.
"And I'm not going to let some little idiot insult the man I love without giving her some sort of punishment for not keeping her mouth shut while she had the chance." Daisy said.
"In fact, that's kind of why we wanted to come here. To prove to that little witch that she was wrong about me and Luigi." Mario said.
"When did you decide that you wanted to do this?" Peach asked.
"The day you suggested we come here." Luigi replied.
"And if we were going to do this at all, then we had to do it today, otherwise we wouldn't have done it." Mario said.
"I can see why you wanted to get back at her. If anyone treated me the way she did you, I'd want to make them regret it, too." Daisy said.
They didn't spend too much time at Joke's End because it was so cold there. They decided to go back to Gwarhar Lagoon to warm up.
And so that about wraps things up... or does it? Well, did you see the words 'The End' appear before now? That's right! We've still got one more chapter to go! Stay tuned to see how this story ends!
