As the heroes got in the shack, Cranky has a stern look and talks about how the banana hoard's been their sacred hoard for a long time and that the kremlings have tried to steal it but to no avail. Until now that is.
"And that's why I'm counting on YOU heroes to defeat King K Rool and to bring the banana hoard back. Bring Donkey Kong with you too," he said. "He'll be able to help you along the way."
Bubbles stayed silent for a moment until she asks, "Um... would you excuse me for a minute?"
"Sure."
She flies out of the shack, leaving the others confused. Two minutes later Diddy Kong comes in with a terrified look.
"Guys! You gotta come see this!" Diddy Kong exclaimed.
"What's happening?!" everyone asked.
"That blue girl's gone bananas! LITERALLY!"
"You mean Bubbles?! What in the world are you talking about, Diddy?" Blossom asked.
"Just come outside!"
They all do like so, and climb down the ladder to see...
"Oh hey, there's a stuffed octopus cut in half!" Luigi exclaimed, pointing at the cut-in-half stuffed purple octopus with a hat.
"Oh come on! She brought Octi with her?!" Buttercup said. Huh, so that's what the octopus' name is, Mario thought.
"Yeah, a klaptrap tore that apart," says Diddy Kong.
"Umm, shouldn't we be more concerned about... that?" Blossom points to a pile of clothes... and two blue hair ties. Okay, now she's gone crazy, Buttercup thought.
"Well... if she's taken everything off, then where is-" Mario gets interrupted by a screech from above. The others look up and Bubbles is on the roof of the shack. She's wearing a blue jungle outfit and she's gone completely berserk.
Blossom gasps and Buttercup is appalled at the sight. Then Bubbles starts pounding the roof and howls like a real monkey.
"Quick! Into the shack!" Diddy Kong exclaimed.
They went into the shack but Bubbles comes in and out, back and forth, breaking windows on each side of the shack. Then she throws a bunch of coconuts but Buttercup gets hit by one and is dazed.
"Duhhhhh, Grandmaster Kong, we got another monkey to take care of," Buttercup says in a dizzy voice.
Suddenly the barrel Bubbles threw comes crashing at the shack in an aggressive manner, and the heroes dodge it as it crashes the other side of the shack. Bubbles must have thrown it.
"Okay, now she's gone COMPLETELY NUTS!" Blossom exclaimed.
Suddenly Bubbles shakes the shack violently as though there was an earthquake and everyone starts screaming in fear. Then Cranky comes in the room.
"What the heck is going on here?! Is there an earthquake or something?" Cranky asks.
"No, it's Bubbles!" Blossom said.
"Ehhh? The blue pigtailed girl? What's wrong with her?"
Mario explained the entire situation to Cranky, hoping that he'd be able to help them in any way. He listened intently to every word. Then Buttercup chimed in with, "And all this is happening because of stupid Octi..."
"SHHHHHHH!" Blossom whispered angrily as she covered Buttercup's mouth. "Do you want her to hear you?!"
Buttercup pointed at Bubbles, standing at the edge of the window, as if trying to say that she heard everything. Suddenly she pounces on Buttercup and the two get into a scuffle as Blossom tries to get Bubbles off.
She succeeds but then Bubbles starts to pound the ground in complete fury and growls in anger.
"She's gone INSANE!" Buttercup shouts.
"What do we do grandpa Cranky?!" Diddy Kong asked.
"My boy, I think Bubbles has turned into... Bubbles Kong," Cranky said.
"Bubbles Kong?!" everyone exclaimed.
"Yes. We must go to my lab... which is conveniently right near the shack! Let's go!"
Cranky was right: His lab was near the shack but the banana trees were between the two places. However on the way everyone accidentally slips on the banana peels that "Bubbles Kong" had supposedly eaten and thrown banana peels everywhere.
Eventually they get to Cranky's lab and the elder monkey is seen mixing up some sort of light blue potion that will hopefully turn her back to normal. After a few minutes, he pours it into a small potion bottle.
"When you catch Bubbles Kong, make her drink this and she'll be back to normal again," Cranky explained, putting the potion in Mario's hands.
"Wait... what about the banana hoard?" Buttercup asked.
"Your sister's probably eaten the dang hoard already! And since the kremlings stole it, I assume she'd beaten them up and kept the bananas to herself. Just... focus on getting her back to normal."
The heroes hear a loud crash and Bubbles' screeching. They'd assumed Bubbles heard everything yet again
"But that makes NO SENSE!" Buttercup yells. "If the kremlings stole it and Bubbles beat 'em up, then why would she-"
"Look at her," Cranky says, pointing at Bubbles. She is seen beating up the kremlings and roaring in a malicious manner; most of them are already knocked out thanks to her knockdown.
Everyone looks in shock at her strength. Blossom and Buttercup had seen their sister in her hardcore mode, but not like THIS.
"Mama MIA!" Luigi exclaimed. "How does she even do that?!"
"Because she's Bubbles Kong, her strength's become stronger. Like a monkey's strength, " Mario says in a witty manner.
"Who even has time for that nonsense?! GO! Get that monkey!" Cranky pushes the heroes out of his lab and Bubbles looks at them with a murderous look on her face.
Bubbles starts slowly crawling in all fours towards the group. It's like she wants to kill them or something: And that's NOT the Bubbles they know and love!
"Uhh, n-nice monkey girl..." Luigi stutters.
They're about to duck for cover when Bubbles pounces on the group... but instead she just bites Mario in the butt. Mario screams in agony, runs around in circles with Bubbles still hanging onto him and keeps repeating "GET HER OFF OF ME!"
"BUBBLES, LET HIM GO!" Blossom shouts. Buttercup helps the pink clad pull her out successfully, but... his bottom overalls got ripped off and they see his boxers, which are red with white dots. Like a normal mushroom you see in the Mushroom Kingdom.
"Umm... Mario," Buttercup said, stifling her laughter. "Your underwear's showing!"
"What do you mean my underwear's- GAAAAAAAHHHHHHHH!" Mario looks down to see that part of his overalls have been ripped apart. Buttercup and Luigi start laughing and Mario blushes out of pure embarrassment. Blossom felt sorry for him... she actually knew what it was like to be embarrassed (*cough* the hair incident *cough*)
"I-I'm not going out like THIS!" Mario exclaimed, flustered. "First Bubbles' doll, then my pants... what's next? My HAT?"
"Uhh, I think Buttercup beat you to it." As he snickers, Luigi points to Buttercup, who now has Mario's hat and starts imitating him. "It's-a ME, SUPER MARIO! WA HOO!"
Mario gives her an annoyed look and gestures her to give the hat back. "Uh, my hat please?"
"Fiiiiiiiiine," Buttercup reluctantly groaned, giving Mario his hat back.
"Here's a new pair, Mario," Blossom said, holding out a new pair of overalls.
"Oh my god, thank you," Mario happily replied. He then takes the pair and a few minutes later he comes back out with fresh overalls.
"Alright, let's get that monkey," he said.
Suddenly Bubbles pounces on Blossom and pins her down to the ground. The pink clad tried to fight back but then Bubbles proceeds to growl at her and bites her bow. For the love of god why on my bow? Blossom thought.
Buttercup quickly gets Bubbles off of her sister but she chases her and Luigi around.
However a smell catches her eye: It was a banana hanging from the tree. She grabs it and then eats the banana. Then she throws the peel to the ground; as Luigi steps on the banana peel he slips and Buttercup does the same but she skids and crashes onto the wall of Cranky's lab.
Cranky comes out of the lab to deactivate it when he sees the whole scene: Bananas everywhere, Luigi seeing stars in dizziness, Buttercup crashed onto the wall, and Blossom's bow almost torn apart thanks to Bubbles' biting.
"What in Grandmaster Kong's name happened?!" Cranky asked.
"Don't ask," Mario said. "Let's just say... Bubbles has gone bananas. Literally."
"I should've known... well, it seems that she's left a path for you to follow though. Why don't you follow and maybe it'll lead you to her?" Cranky points to a trail of bananas Bubbles had left, leading to a pirate ship.
"Well let's follow it! We gotta catch her before she causes any more trouble," Buttercup said, wearing architect clothing. Everyone nodded and didn't question where she got the clothing.
"Bring her back here after you get Bubbles back to normal! I have banana smoothies."
"Will do!" Blossom said.
The group follows the banana path that Bubbles had supposedly left for them: And Buttercup starts looking for piranha teeth. Where has that monkey gone to?
