The next day all had seem forgotten. The rebellious members were generously forgiven by the captain, and everything was going as it usually would. Another pillaging was scheduled at a town called Rogueport. The ship plowed right through the main docks to the sea-by-town. Not a scratch was given to the pirate's convenience but the town was in chaos. People screamed in fear as they saw the infamous figure the kingdom has slowly come to known. It was Syrup. Always too guide the crew during they're pillaging, Syrup became more known than the captain herself. She jumped from the deck on to the harbor. "Why'd mom bring us her?" she mumbled as the townsfolk ran for cover. "This place looks poorer than anyplace we've been to!" she pondered. "Oh-well... Attack!" she screamed calling the other mates on board. The crew jumped off and stormed the town. Shattering windows, setting fires, doing what they could to snatch any riches. Wario, still on board, was ready to take off. Before jumping over the edge of the ship, he was stopped by the captain. "Leaving so soon?" Cpt. Sugar halted him. "Hey? What's the deal here!" Wario snapped. "Wario, I need a word with you..." she said guiding him into her quarters.
Wario looked sadly out the window in the captain's room. He saw all the pirates causing mayhem which he loved to do. "I could've been doing that!" Wario yelled at Sugar. "I know how eager you are to steal, but there is no treasure down there..." Sugar paced around him. "What no dough?" Wario's jaw dropped. Sugar smiled. I just needed no interference from my daughter at this time." The ship started moving away from the town. Wario looked in shock as Syrup and the others disappeared on the distancing port town. Back at Rogueport, Syrup notices the ship leaving. "What? Wait!" she screamed. She ran to the damaged docks but was stopped by the other pirates. One of them grabbed her arms. "Help!" she screamed. The other pirates looked sadly, and watched as Syrup was tied up with a rope. Dangerous raised his wing, as if to stop what was happening but lowered it sadly. The other members felt powerless to what was about to happen. The ship disappeared in the distance and a tear crawled down Syrup's face. "What's happening?" she cried. "Where's mom going? Where's Wario?" she burst into tears. The pirate turned to her. "Sorry miss Syrup... But soon you shall be our new captain, and daughter of the supreme overlord..."
"This is the spot!" Sugar commanded a spearguy at the controls of the ship. "This is where I found you! This is where my love left me! And this is where he shall return to me, through YOU!" she pushed Wario into a cage. Wario grabbed the bars but his hands were blasted away. "Hahaha! That cage is locked by these six golden coins. Anceint Beanbeanian magic I stole off of Joke's End. You can't get free without them." Sugar laughed. "What's going on!" Wario yelled. "Why are you doing this?" The clouds covered the sky, and a great storm began to stir. "You're the one the jewel chose! The one who's power brought you to me! Through you I shall complete what Brown started!" she yelled to the sky.
The storm raged the sea. From beneath the waters, a great shadow rose. There the black jewel submerged, struck immediately by a green bolt of lightening. Wario look at the images before him. The storm brought flashes of memories into his mind. The day of that horrible event that brought him here haunted deep inside his trembling body. Sugar's eyes turned black as she starred at the jewel hovering above the sea. The jewel shook about. An eye grew from the center of the jewel. Sugar looked in awe as she recognized the eye that revealed itself. "My love! I see you once more... As you see me..." she walked swiftly to the edge of the ship. She walked off the ship and suspended in midair. She continued to walk faster in the air towards the jewel. The eye watched her draw closer until it shot out a beam of red light. Sugar's body was burnt to a crisp. Her remains fell to the sea below. "Ahhhhh... The power wanting soon turned to despair!" the jewel shouted.
The spearguy, without saying a word, jumped overboard in fear. Wario was terrified by the event. The jewel turned towards Wario. "Yes! You are perfect! I sense all kinds of hate and greed within you! You're almost as perfect as the last one." it said. Wario was still trapped within the cage, but that didn't stop him from noticing the six golden coins left in front of him. Wario knew he had to snatch the coins without the jewel noticing. He thought up a plan. "Who are you? What do you want?" Wario questioned the jewel. "Well since you are to die anyway. I once was the captain of this ship. I was the most powerful pirate in the world. Brown was my name! Until I found this jewel... Capable of gaining power through negative emotions." the jewel answered lingering forward. "The jewel told me I could absorb its power to me through a ritual. It said I could use this power to rule all!" he continued. "What happened?" Wario said with his back turned. "An interruption occured. The ritual failed and instead my soul was sealed inside the jewel." it said. "But this time I shall not fail! With your life, I shall gain the power to manipulate emotions into a world of my own!" the gem chuckled. "Yeah... Seems like a solid plan." Wario said from behind the jewel. The black jewel, now confused, noticed the cage was empty. "But you'll never get anything done if you just blab about it." Wario said charging towards it.
Wario got ready to pound the jewel to dust until it transformed itself into a familiar figure. "M-Mario?" Wario yelped. "Heehee! You never could compare to me!" the Mario-like figure said. "Ugly humanoid! You deserve to die. You have no place. You never had a place." it continued stepping closer to Wario. Wario backed away, terrified. "You never had anything good in you. The only one who loved you, you had to kill!" it pointed at Wario. "No!" Wario screamed. "I didn't mean to do it!" he shook in fear. "Mwahaha!" the jewel transformed back. Wario's fear turned to anger. "Grrrr! I'll show you!" Wario punched the jewel, smashing it against the mast. Wario pounded the deck. The ship split in two from the massive smash. The evil gem recovered to find that the part of the the ship he was on was separating from Wario. Wario jumped off board. "Come back here!" the jewel shot two tentacles out. Before Wario hit the water, the tentacles grabbed a hold of him. Wario gripped tightly to the tentacles he was ensnared to. He freed himself and tied the tentacles in a knot.
Back at Rogueport, Syrup struggled free. Dangerous and the rest of the crew had all they could take. Dangerous knocked the pirate that held her captive, into the water. The rest untied her. "What?" she said wiping her tears. "Hurry! To that ship we just stole!" Dangerous shouted. "I'll explain later Miss Syrup. But we've got to stop something horrible."
