Okay...I REALLY screwed up on this chapter. You see, last night, for WHATEVER kind of forsaken reason, I mistook this chapter for Chapter 6, and not Chapter 5 (because I've already typed Chapter 6 and I saved it in a document on here) so I deleted it, thinking that I accidentally submitted Chapter 6 and was careless about double checking...then I immediately realized that I was completely in the wrong, and that the chapter I deleted WAS Chapter 5, not 6. And I couldn't upload it last night because my mom rushed me off of the computer so I kinda forgot all about it because of homework and me being tired. I swear, I am the biggest airhead you will ever meet! Anyways...here is the REAL, ACTUAL Chapter 5.

The gang arrived back at Mushroom Corp, landing in the same room that they found the Arwings. Everyone got out and rushed to the hallway, luckily finding Arfur right there waiting for them.

"Hey guys! Your mission was a complete success. You all should be proud of yourselves!" He happily said.

"Yeah yeah, now where's Luigi!? I demand to see him!" Daisy angrily said.

"Okay, okay, him and the others that we found at the castle are being treated at our secret hospital base about a mile from here. The staff, me, and Kylie are about to drive over there and we want you guys to come along too to see if you can find your friends or family members." Arfur said.

"Secret hospital base? Is this...also in the forest?" Waluigi asked.

"Kind of. It's closer to the city than this building is, but we still take great measures to keep it hidden. Now come along, we're about to leave." Arfur said and everyone followed him outside.

"I'm still in shock at how we managed to save everyone from torture and possibly death and that we made Tatanga run away like a pansy! I feel like such a hero right now!" Toad cheered.

"I don't. We didn't even defeat Tatanga! If this were a video game, we would have gotten a penalty for not defeating the boss!" Toadette complained.

"Wait a second, ARE we in a video game? This all seems sooooo familiar." Peach added.

"Peach, can I ask you something? What is your IQ? Because it sure as hell ain't over 100!" Birdo scolded.

"Hey! I'm not stupid! I got an A+ in my English and Math classes in all my 5 years of high school! I was the most perfect student the teachers could ever had." Peach retorted.

"Five years? Isn't there usually four years in high school though?" DK asked.

"Huh? I did say four years." Peach replied.

"No you didn't, you said five." DK said.

"Oh. Well...I...I meant four."

Yoshi leaned over to Birdo. "She got held back, didn't she?" Birdo nodded in response.

The group got in a large van, that was presumably Arfur's since he had the keys and turned the ignition on. Fire Bro got in the passenger seat while everyone squeezed in the back.

"Hey Arfur, I wanna drive! Can I pleeeeeeaaaaaaaaaaaase!?" Fire Bro begged.

"Hell no! Why would I let YOU of all people drive my van!? All you would do is just destroy the van and get us killed!" Arfur replied as he drove off.

"That may be true, but I've always wanted to drive a super slick looking van ever since I was zero years old!" Fire Bro said.

"I have a question for you Fire Bro, have you ever, at anytime in your life, got hit on your head when you were a baby or a kid? This is a serious question so I want a serious answer." DK asked.

"Oh heck yeah! I was dropped on my head LOADS of times when I was younger! One time, when I was 7, I was riding my bike at 20 miles per hour and I wasn't paying attention to where I was going so I accidentally ran into a fire hydrant and I zoooooooooooooooomed out of my seat and hit my head against someone's house! It was so fun, that I decided to do it one more time! But thankfully my head wasn't injured too badly, though the doctors did mention that my head bashing might've caused some 'trigger' in my brain to set off, causing me to go 'loopy' temporarily...boy, were they wrong about the temporary part!" Fire Bro laughed.

Everyone else didn't know how to reply to that. They had never seen someone with such a weird childhood before...except for Bowser maybe.

"Hmm. Fire Bro's past is certainly...how should I say it...special? Yes. The head bashing was indeed the trigger for his insanity, but he was hit on the head numerous times before that, so it looks like the bike incident was the one that did him in." Rosalina explained.

"Dude, how do you know all this stuff? You're just like Merlon!" Daisy said.

"It comes with being the queen of space." Rosalina winked.

Dixie scoffed at her. "More like being the queen of showing off."

The van pulled up to a dirt road and parked in front of the hospital. It was white, three-stories and very high-tech looking. The gang saw many people walking and talking around inside, and they even recognized a few of them. Other cars were parked outside, most likely from the staff that came to assist the ex-prisoners.

Everyone got out and rushed inside. They were shocked at how many people there were! There were Nokis, Koopas, Goombas, Toads, Piantas, Bob-ombs galore...along with a few other minor species.

Kylie walked to the group. "Hey guys! This place is basically a haven for our victims of Tatanga. Some of them are being treated for injuries as we speak but luckily, nothing major has been reported so far."

"Good work, Kylie. What is the survivor count?" Arfur asked.

"I believe it is...333?" Kylie answered.

"333!? If you multiply that by 2 then that equals 666! This is CLEARLY a bad thing you guys, which means something apocalyptic is going to happen very soon!" Toad freaked out.

"Shut up, Toad. Anyways, 333 eh? That's a decent number but isn't the population of Mushroom City 9,999,999? That's extremely small when you compare those numbers." Birdo pointed out.

"I agree Birdo, but we must assume that everyone else in the city either evacuated, are hiding out...or...you know." Kylie hinted at the last part, but they all knew what she meant.

"Besides, now that the coast is clear, for now, we have a small team of our staff currently searching throughout the city for more survivors so there shouldn't be too much worry." Arfur reassured.

"Yeah, so you guys can go on and see if any of your friends or family are here and can talk with them for a while, but I need you guys back outside in 30 minutes as there's something important we need to discuss. Oh, and one more thing, me and the staff pretty much told everyone about your guys' mission and what you did, so expect a lot of thanks coming your way. Oh! One last thing, I'm sorry, Luigi is upstairs in room D5. He is alright." Kylie ordered and everyone else nodded and they ran off, searching for their friends that are hopefully alive.

Toad and Toadette decided to go upstairs and immediately found Mona, Kooper, Parakarry, and Bombette who were all talking to each other.

"Hey you guys! It's us! We are SO glad to find that you're okay!" Toadette said and hugged Mona.

"Oh it's you two! We heard ALL about your little 'mission' to save us! That is so awesome! You guys are such heroes!" Bombette cheered.

"Yeah. Who would've known you guys of all people would just come out of nowhere and rescue us? No offense or anything. We just thought that someone like the military would do it, but you guys totally surprised us all!" Mona also cheered.

Toad couldn't help but blush. "Well, you wouldn't believe how we even started out in the first place...but that's a story for later though."

"So, what was it like to drive those cool aircraft things? I imagine it must be even more exciting than typical flying!" Parakarry asked.

"Oh oh oh! Let me tell you Parakarry, let's just say that it was like being on a rollercoaster, floating through mid-air, while eating tofu and drinking an Oreo McFlurry and listening to 'Party in the Mushroom Kingdom' by Miley Cyrus." Toadette happily explained.

"Um...I'm not really sure if that made any sense whatsoever but...okay!" Kooper awkwardly said and smiled.


Rosalina wandered her way throughout the first floor, receiving compliments and thanks from the ex-prisoners. She was grateful to receive them, but she had no idea who any of them were. She was basically looking to see if there was anyone in the place she could talk to without making it awkward.

As she turned the corner, she spotted Bowser and his kids (along with Kammy) all arguing with each other and whatnot. The space queen sighed, due to the fact she disliked them all, but she was truly concerned if any harm was done to them, so, being the kind person she is, she walked over there, getting more nervous with step.

"Well well well! Look who it is! The queen of exposing everyone's darkest secrets!" Wendy called out. Rosalina sighed again, knowing that she was going to get belittled by them one way or another.

"Um...hi there everyone. Are you all okay? No injuries or mental scars?" She asked.

"Hmph! What's it to ya? But if you're THAT curious, then no, we're just fine. Those stupid guards couldn't hurt me even if they wished upon a shooting star for it!" Bowser roared.

"Oh really? Is that why you got captured so easily?" Roy smirked.

Bowser growled at him. "SHUT UP! I WAS CAUGHT OFF GUARD, OKAY!?"

"Hey Rosalina, you wouldn't happen to have any alcohol on you, would you? Preferably Vodka!?" Bowser Jr. asked.

"Um...no? Anyways, I was honestly concerned for you all but since you don't want me around obviously..." Rosalina said and then turned around.

"WAIT!" Larry yelled and Rosalina turned back around again.

"Um...we all heard what you and the others did, Rosalina. So...uhh...thank you...I guess." Larry said while scratching the back of his neck.

Rosalina smiled a bit. "Your very welcome." She was glad to find SOME kindness in the Koopa family.

"Still though, if those pumpernickels hadn't stolen my wand, they would've been turned into abominable Koopas by now!" Kammy yelled.

"Oh get over it Kammy! You were scared out of your mind and we all heard you crying out for your momma!" Iggy accused.

"You're one to talk Iggy, you were running in circles and screaming 'GODS OF HYRULE, DESTROY THESE MUTANTS THAT CAME FROM ANOTHER DIMENSION!'" Lemmy re-directed.

Rosalina quickly got out of there as she knew it was gonna turn ugly pretty soon.


Waluigi walked over to the cafeteria as he figured that if Wario was alive and he got saved by the Mushroom Corp, that's where he would be and lo and behold! The purple man spotted him sitting at a small table with Dry Bones, Boo, Fly Guy, Shy Guy, and Wiggler.

"Wario! My obese brother!" Waluigi shrieked in happiness and ran up to the table to hug him.

"Waluigi! Nice to see you're still alive. Who would've thought YOU of all people would help save the day?" Wario laughed.

"I know, right? I'm a total anti-hero!" Waluigi also laughed and looked at the rest of the table mates. "Hey guys! I'm glad you're okay too."

"Hey Mr. Thin-As-A-Stick. How's life going for ya now that you're a supposed 'hero'?" Boo said and snickered.

"Seriously Boo? Making fun of my skinniness? How original." Waluigi said and rolled his eyes.

"Oh don't listen to him Waluigi, you're one of the most beautiful guys I know!" Fly Guy complimented while checking himself out in a hand-held mirror.

"ANYWAYS! So we heard you fought Tatanga. How was that? Did you almost die?" Wiggler asked.

"To be honest, we were THIS close to retreating because we just couldn't defeat the guy with our basic lasers but luckily, Daisy came in and saved the day and bombed the hell out of him! He then flew away like a little biatch!" Waluigi explained and laughed again.

"Oh? So DAISY saved the day and not you? Interesting." Boo smirked.

"Is there a problem that you need to address with me, Boo? Cause if so then you better say it right now!" Waluigi demanded and smashed his fist on the table.

"Nope, no problem. I'm just relaxing, something that you should do too." Boo smirked yet again.


Goombella cheered in glee once she saw her friends talking right outside the entrance to the Courtyard. She ran over to them and gave a big hug to Koops.

"OHMIGOSH! I'm, like, sooooooo happy that you guys are, like, okay! Seriously, I thought you guys were all, like, obliterated by one of those laser cannons on Tatanga's ship!" She said and Koops hugged back.

"Um, nice to see you as well Goombella. Nice job on helping save everyone too! You're definitely a true hero." Koops said and smiled.

"Yeah! When we heard that you and the other guys of the Mario gang helped save us, I was overfilled with joy! I just knew we would be saved, but it came as a total surprise when you and the others did all of it!" Koopie vibrantly said.

"Well, we're just glad that you're not hurt or worse, Goombella. You have definitely grown a lot since I've last seen you." Frankly said.

"Oh gosh you guys! These shower of compliments are, like, too much!" Goombella said with a blush.

"But still, Tatanga? Man talk about totally unexpected! That's like hearing news about a Sonic the Hedgehog game receiving a 10/10 on a game site!" Yoshie shrieked.

"Excuse me dearie, but I prefer you not to insult the semi-legendary video game series that is Sonic the Hedgehog." Flurrie commented.

"Yeah Frankly told us all about Tatanga. But to be honest though, if Tatanga was beaten that easily then it's not really something we should be worried about again because we all have dealt with something worse." Vivian explained and everyone nodded their heads.

"Plus, based on what we've seen, the lad isn't much different from Bowser. He may use different tactics, yes, but he's just as easy to defeat!" Bobbery said.

"Does anyone know if there's anything of interest I can steal here? I swear, I haven't done any of my thieving for months now! I'm totally slipping you guys!" Miss Mowz complained.

"Um...back on topic here...we also heard that Tatanga actually just ran away and you didn't ACTUALLY defeat him. Is that true?" Bow asked.

"Yeah unfortunately it is..." Goombella said with slight disappointment. She was very tempted to say something else, but she couldn't let it out for some reason.

"So does this mean there's a possibility of him coming back then? If so that means we might be in even more danger than before! OH THE HUMANITY!" Watt cried.

"It may be likely, yes. But for now, all we can do is rest and wait for any more news to come about." Frankly reassured.

"Let's go to the cafeteria shall we? I'm sure all of us are starving and I sure can use a few pounds of food in my stomach!" Sushie laughed and everyone agreed.

As they were walking, Goombario tapped Goombella on the shoulder.

"Hey Goombella...um...do you wanna walk together to the cafeteria? Like, side-by-side?" The goomba shyly asked.

"Um, okay." Goombella said, raising her eyebrow.


Fire Bro entered the cafeteria, looking for some food to eat, when suddenly he spotted a couple of familiar characters.

"NO. FREAKING. WAY!" He screamed and zoomed over to the table where Charmy Bee, Amy Rose, Mimi, Tippi, Nastasia, O'Chunks, and Lady SaSa were sitting at.

"YEEEEEEEEEEEEEE! CHARMY! MY BBFFL! I CAN'T BELIEVE YOU'RE HERE IN ALL OF THE PLACES IN THE GALAXY!" He cheerfully screeched and squeezed the bee.

"Um, nice to see you too Firer Bro! Now can ya get off me please!?" Charmy begged and Fire Bro broke off the suffocating hug.

"Um...BBFFL?" Amy questioned.

"Oh! It stands for Best Bee Friend For Life! I'm so clever, aren't I?" Fire Bro laughed.

"...Sure. Let's go with that." Amy said and rolled her eyes.

"Um, guys? I'd like you to meet my longtime friend, Fire Bro!" Charmy introduced and everyone else waved to him.

"Nice job taking care of that bastard and saving us! I really thought all hope was lost for a while." Mimi said.

"Pssshhhh, it's no big deal! Saving you guys was easier than breaking open a peanut butter jar at a squirrel convention!" Fire Bro laughed again.

"Um...Interesting..." Mimi fake smiled.

"Yeah, me and Fire Bro go wayyyyyyyy back! We also have a lot in common too! I told him the story about how I use to bug the cashier guy at Burger Queen to give me free fries and Fire Bro told me he use to do the same thing too! Isn't that awesome!?" Charmy cheered.

No one gave a response. They all just stared at the both of them in annoyance.

"Well, I can certainly see why they're best friends." Nastasia whispered to O'Chunks.

"I have a question I need to ask you all of you. Did you guys buy my last CD, 'Mooooo This Way'? If not, then I have a few of them in my lucky handbag right here! No cost whatsoever!" Lady SaSa vibrantly asked. It got quiet once again.

"Alright, ya bloke. I want to know who in the bloody hell kidnapped us! I swear, if I got my hands on 'im, he would be deader than a frog sunbaked in the desert!" O'Chunks yelled.

"It was this weird mutant thingamajig called Tatangirina...or something like that." Fire Bro answered.

"HUH? What the hell kind of name is that suppose to be!?" Mimi yelled.

"Well what kind of name is MIMI?" Amy spat.

"Girl, I will rip off that ugly pink hair of yours and make you eat it!" Mimi retorted.

"Tatangirina? What a unique name! I'm gonna go put that as a song title!" Lady SaSa cheered and ran off to go write her new song.

"So, this Tatangirina is the new villain in the game...hmmm, well, something tells me he isn't done with his reign yet. And something also tells me he's going to be much different than Bowser." Nastasia said.

"I don't care who it is, I just want to sting the crap out of that guy! GRRRRRRRRRRRR! SOMEONE GET ME SOME LEMONADE THIS INSTANT!" Charmy angrily demanded.


Yoshi and Birdo went up stairs and walked down the right hallway. They saw Jojora typing something on her cellphone, along with Banjo and Kazooie who were talking to each other.

"Oh hey! It's Jojora! And...Banjo and Kazooie!? What the hell are they doing here? We haven't seen them in so long! Come on, let's go say hi!" Yoshi said but Birdo stopped him.

"Wait. Do we HAVE to say hi to Jojora? Seriously? I mean, I just...UGH, I can't stand her! She's so obnoxious and catty, plus I can't stand her high-pitched voice!" Birdo grunted.

"Really? I think she's pretty funny. Just suck it up Birdo, we'll only talk to her for a minute." Yoshi said and they both walked over to the blue fairy.

"Oh hey you two! I heard ALL about the fabulous defeating of that monster! I always thought you two were just background heroes, but, well, that announcement proved me wrong obviously!" Jojora said and laughed. Birdo was trying to resist the urge to strangle her.

"Gee, thanks. But you didn't get hurt, right? Everything went A-okay?" Yoshi asked.

"Well, despite me being stuck in a room with Wendy Koopa and Kammy Koopa, the two most headache-inducing people I have ever met, I was fine. Now if you'll excuse me, I need to go call my lawyers because I am almost positive that vile whore, Wendy, stole my other cellphone!" Jojora said and walked away.

"She's the one to talk about headache-inducing! I wish Tatanga would've zapped her ass into oblivion!" Birdo yelled.

"That's nice. Now let's go see Banjo and his bird friend!" Yoshi said and they went over to the bear and bird.

"Woah woah woah! Yoshi? Birdo? Is that really you in the flesh? My goodness, you don't look the slightest different ever since the last I saw you!" Banjo happily said and gave both of them a big hug.

"Yep, it's really us. We couldn't be more than happy to see that you two are okay. Hey Kazooie!" Birdo said and waved to the bird. Kazooie lazily waved back and gave a weird smile.

"Um, is she okay?" Yoshi asked in concern.

"Erm...yeah, you see, she kinda had an outburst back at the castle but that was because she didn't take her pills. So when we got here, I searched everywhere I could to see if the place had the same pills that Kazooie took and thankfully they did, so I gave it to her and they basically made her tired and such. Hoo, but it's better like that, trust me! She might've gotten us in deeper trouble with that mouth of hers...because, well, you know how she can be..." Banjo explained.

"Trust me, we both played all your Banjo-Kazooie games, so we definitely know about that. But anyways, if you don't mind us asking, what are you two doing here?" Yoshi asked.

"We decided to take a vacation in Mushroom City. You know, get away from the same old basic life back in Spiral Mountain. Unfortunately, we came at the completely wrong time..." Banjo explained again.

"Yikes. But I wouldn't worry too much though, you should be able to get back to your world soon once more crap is cleared up about what is happening." Birdo said.


"DK, we have to keep looking! Tiny and Diddy have to be here somewhere!" Dixie freaked out.

"Dixie, we've looked everywhere for them. I think they probably escaped...or...um...gone to the Overthere...or the Underwhere." DK nervously said.

"DON'T YOU DARE SAY THAT! I know they're still alive! I can feel it in my heart. I know that sounds cheesy but it's true! Now if you'll excuse me, I need to use the bathroom because I've been holding it in for the past 4.5 hours." Dixie said and ran into the girls room. A minute later, and there was a loud scream.

"Dixie!? Are you okay!?" DK called out. Another minute later, and Dixie dragged out Tiny and Diddy, who had puke all over their shirts.

"Oh my god, you found them! Diddy! Tiny! We're so glad you guys are fine! But...um...what the hell happened to you?" DK asked.

"Ate...cake...at cafeteria...errrrggghhh...who knew coconut...cake...was so...terrible that it...makes you puke...your brains out...ohhhh..." Diddy explained as best as he could while holding his stomach in pain.

"Excuse me? Coconut cake is not terrible. That cake was CLEARLY poisoned by some maniac. Or the cook sucked at making it. But anyways, I'm so happy you guys are well. Kiss me you poor monkey!" Dixie said and planted a bag fat smooch on Diddy's lips.

"EWW! Dixie...really now? Kissing him after he...ugh, threw up?" Tiny groaned, trying her best to stand up.

"Oh it's no big deal. I'll wash my lips later. Now Diddy sweetie, you do realize you ran into the girls bathroom to puke your brains out, right?" Dixie asked.

"Yergh, I don't care! I didn't want to spill it all over the floor and watch people slip on it! Yuck. It had to be done." Diddy explained.

"Well, let's get you two to one of the nurses. They'll find some way to deal with your cake-diseased stomachs." DK said.


Daisy and Peach went up to the second floor and took the left hallway.

"Okay, Kylie said Luigi is in room D5 which should be right over...THERE!" Daisy pointed to a room right near them. The princesses ran in, but they did not see Luigi.

They saw Mario, laying on the hospital bed, looking in poor condition. Pauline, Lakilester, Lakilulu, and Toadsworth were sitting near his bed.

"What the!? M-Mario!? Toadsworth!? Lakilester!? Lakilulu!? Eww. Pauline!? Double eww!" Peach shrieked.

"Oh Princess! I see you have completed your little mission here unharmed along with Miss Daisy. I must say, good job defeating that wretched monster. The entire kingdom is in your debt." Toadsworth said.

"Yeah yeah, debt collectors and taxes, now for Mario! Don't tell me...is he..." Peach started to panic.

"Don't worry, he's alright. He's just badly beaten up. He's resting right now." Lakilester explained.

"Well, hello to you Peach. Fancy meeting you here of all places." Pauline said while crossing her arms.

Peach rolled her eyes. "Likewise. So, what did you do to Mario while I was gone? Did you try to make him fall for you like you tried last time!?"

"You seriously need to calm your jets, girlfriend. Mario has been resting the entire time we've been in here." Lakilulu said.

"Excuse me but was anyone talking to you!? Buzz off!" Peach yelled, grabbed her shoe and threw it at Lakilulu. The female lakitu screamed and ducked under the bed to dodge it.

"Princess! That was highly unnecessary!" Toadsworth shrieked.

"I don't care. Now, I demand to know what you were doing with Mario while I was gone and I want full details, pronto!" Peach stomped her foot.

"Calm your ass down! Like Lakilulu said, he's been resting the entire time we've been here. I have a right to be concerned and look after him you know!" Pauline yelled.

"Okay, this is nice and all, but where is Luigi? He's suppose to be in this room!" Daisy interrupted.

"Master Luigi? He's behind this hospital curtain." Toadsworth said and pulled the curtain away to reveal Luigi on a hospital bed as well, along with bruises all over him just like Mario.

"LUIGI! YOU'RE OKAY!" Daisy squealed and hugged the green Italian.

"Yeah...I'm just fine. But when I was about to crash...I really thought I was going to die, Daisy. I thought it was going to be the end. I've never felt so scared in my entire life..." Luigi said to Daisy and sobbed a bit.

"Oh Luigi! I'm so sorry that happened to you. But at least you're alive and that's all that matters." Daisy reassured him and gave him a kiss.

"Thanks. But...um...can I ask you something that's probably embarrassing?" Luigi asked.

"Um, go ahead!" Daisy answered, curious to know what it is.

"Well...you see...when the arwing crashed, I was still screaming and the control panel blew up, having one of the buttons fly and land in my mouth and I accidentally swallowed it. Should I be worried, or should I be happy that I didn't accidentally swallow something worse?" Luigi explained.

Daisy gave him a vacant look. "...I'll get back to you on that."

Meanwhile, Mario was slowly opening his eyes. Peach and Pauline caught notice of this and immediately got excited for his awakening.

"Wha...oh! You guys...ugh, my head is killing me..." Mario softly spoke.

"Mario! I'm so glad you're all right. You really had me worried there for a second." Peach said and gave him a kiss on the forehead.

Mario smiled at her. "Peach...I heard what happened...you're a real hero...despite you not being much of a hero in the past, but still, great job. I'm proud of you."

"How did you even get so bruised like that anyways?" Peach asked.

"Tatanga's guards beat me down pretty badly because I was trying to fight them off. They were a lot tougher than I had imagined. It was like one of those times where you play a video game on Easy mode, but then come to a certain point in the game where you realize that something to get pass by is difficult when it really shouldn't be. Do you know what I am saying?" Mario asked.

"Not at all, but I don't care! I'm just happy you're alive!" Peach cheered again.

"Master Mario! So you have finally awakened I see. Excellent, because I knew there was no way you would go down so easily." Toadsworth complimented.

"Thanks Toadsworth...oh! Pauline! I didn't notice you standing here. Um, you and Peach didn't get into a fight like the past 26 times before, did you?" Mario asked.

"Well, kind of but we quickly got over it. I wasn't too worried about your condition though, Mario, because don't you remember? I was locked in that prison cell-like room with you, Toadsworth, Bowser, and a bunch of other people that I don't care enough to know the names of. I saw that you were okay, despite you being a bit depressed." Pauline explained.

"Wait a second, you were thrown into a cell...WITH HIM!?" Peach shrieked.

"Oh don't start getting over-dramatic again! We were barely talking with each other the entire time. In fact, I wasn't even talking to anyone else because I didn't like any of the people in that room." Pauline rolled her eyes.

"Hey Mario! I know it's been a long time since you've seen me and Lakilulu but we came to give you a present that would hopefully cheer you up." Lakilester said as walked up to his bed with his girlfriend.

"Oh hey there! What's the present?" Mario asked in excitement.

"It's...this!" Lakilester brought a purple mushroom and showed it to Mario.

"What the hell!? That's a POISON mushroom you dolt! Are you trying to kill him!?" Pauline yelled and smacked the mushroom off his hand.

"Wh-what!? But...LAKILULU! You told me that it was an ultra shroom!" Lakilester yelled.

"Erm...yeah, I just now remembered that the ultra shroom is GREEN, not purple...heh heh heh." Lakilulu said in embarrassment.

"That's it. Someone hold my heels, I'm going in!" Peach yelled as she took off her heels and ran towards Lakilulu, but was stopped by Daisy.

"PEACH! It's been a half-hour since Kylie told us that we need to meet her for something important. We have to go now!" Daisy explained to her while Luigi got up and went over to Mario.

Peach sighed. "Fine. You win this time, ugly Lakitu chick! Mario, I must leave now but I shall be back soon. Toadsworth, make sure that skank doesn't get close to Mario! And Lakilester, get a new girlfriend. Peace y'all!" Peach said and left with Daisy.

"WAIT! MARIO! I didn't even get a chance to say hi to you! You're fine, right? Please tell me you are!" Luigi cried.

"Don't worry bro, I'm just fine. Now go on, I'll wait for you and the others patiently." Mario said.

"Kay kay!" Luigi said then hugged Mario, and ran off.

Meanwhile, Lakilulu was growling loudly. "That Peach is such a bitch! And so are you Pauline! I hope you both get ran over by elephants and then get eaten by a bunch of crocodiles!" Shen then ran off crying.

EOC.

Next chapter will feature Tatanga and his army of bad guys forming a new plan, and will also feature the main 13 talking with Kylie and Arfur about something important that will have them go on yet another mission. Also, the reason for Peach and Pauline's rivalry will be revealed as well. Please review.
