"Ha!" Mario exclaimed joyfully as he popped out from the top of the rooftop, waving his right hand at the shopping Piantas, Nokis, and Miis below. "I appeared in this-a fanfic for the first time in twenty-a or thirty-a odd chapters-a! Give me-a my money-a!"

Petey Piranha flapped his wing like leaves in the air above Mario, chuckling as he faced the red capped Italian plumber, moving his leaves around as he mumbled.

"What!?" Mario exclaimed as he shook with rage, his fists glowing red with flames. "What do you mean I-a don't-a see a cent from appearing in a fanfiction-a!? This is mutiny!"

Petey shrugged as Mario screamed with rage, spouting Italian curse words as he jumped all over the rooftop, only to accidentally jump on the booster pad and being boosted across the air, landing flat on his face in the concrete as he moaned in pain. Petey blinked as he watched the customers crowding over the severely injured Mario, shrugging as he kept on flying around the Coconut Mall.

"...Mamma... mia..." Mario weakly groaned in pain as his left leg twitched, with a couple of female Nokis gasping in shock.
