Chapter 2 – Three years later
In the three years passed since the battle with Smithy; Mario's world has become quite a different place. Luigi, Mario's fraternal twin brother came to live with Mario in his small house outside the Mushroom Kingdom. Mario and the Princess were beginning to casually date and would often see Prince Mallow who by this time became quite a charming but powerful prince of Nimbus Land. Mallow had negotiated peace with the inhabitants of the nearby Barrel Volcano who were feuding for ages with the fluffy inhabitants of Nimbus Land. Surprisingly Booster and Valentina who were said to get married after the fall of Smithy did indeed get married in Marrymore and Booster's odd but truly kind heart changed Valentina completely. The Snifits became guards to the tower and Valentina's crony Dodo lives with them as Captain of the Guard. In Marrymore Chef Torte and his assistant were terminated from their jobs as cake makers because of the fact their cakes turned into monsters for some reason, however they found themselves in Monstro Town where their skills are appreciated for the inhabitants were known for their sweet teeth.
Gaz of Rose Town became a doll maker at the age of twelve and set up a shop in a cave he discovered in the nearby forest, his dolls are a favorite to young children all throughout the world. Perhaps the most notable change was the inhabitants of Moleville creating a large theme park dedicated to Mario and called it MarioLandheaded upby the one who got the inspiration after his mine cart attraction drew a big crowd to the mountain town. Finally after the fall of Smithy, Jonathan Jones and his crew of pirates were still feared by the tranquil folks of Seaside Town. However Mario had caused Johnny to want to help people and after he saved the town from a violent tidal wave he was received as a hero to the town after Mario. And statues of the two were put up in the town square.
True to their word Mario and Bowser still got into disputes and Mario still had to save Toadstool once in a while. However it wasn't the same after the fall of Smithy and Bowser didn't attack as often as he did anymore but only did because he had a reputation to keep up. Mario and everyone had enjoyed nothing but peace for the three years since the downfall of evil which almost meant the end of wishes for the whole world. Mario still sometimes heard the voice telling him that the peace will eventually shatter and Mario still couldn't shake the fact that the peace that they had worked so hard to build could possibly come to an end so he ignored it. After all Bowser was the only actual threat to the world Mario had thought, at least he hoped it was so.
