Mario, Starrow and White Stain arrived back at the observatory, but Mario, Luigi and Rosalina were a bit surprised at seeing White Stain instead of Paint and Thinner.
"I'm sorry, but who are you?" Luigi asked, "Me? I'm White Stain, but you might now me as..." White Stain was saying before stopping and splitting back into Paint and Thinner, "Us!" They exclaimed at the same time.
Of course the three uninformed of the fact the two could fuse were confused, but just went with it, "Okay... Anyways, we found the enemy base" Rosalina noted, "Wait, really?" Mario asked, "Yes really, and even better, there's one of our Grand Stars there!" Polari who just arrived there added.
"Don't mind if I do!" Shakara exclaimed as she started heading to the Terrace, "Hey, we're coming too! If Bowser's there we'll deal with him!" Mario said, followed by Luigi, "...Sure, but don't get in the way of MY fight" Shakara warned them.
The ones who knew Shakara just shook their heads at her eagerness, but they soon noticed something, "Shkara, where is the Meteor Staff?" Thinner asked, "I tried calling it, but we're so far in space that it didn't arrive, so I just have to wait, speaking of missing though, where is Dreamiv?" Shakara asked in return, "Well, when we arrive he just sort of..." Oracle said before pointing to the top of the observatory where Dreamiv was sleeping.
"How did I not notice that?" Shakara wondered before shrugging and entering the Terrace and blasting to the enemy base with Mario and Luigi following close behind.
Bowser Jr.'s Robot Reactor.
The three landed there and saw that there were only two planets there, both made of metal, "There's something there" Shakara said, pointing to the second planet, "It's huge!" Luigi exclaimed, "How do we get there?" Mario asked, "I think we should use that." Shakara said pointing to a Launch Star under a glass dome.
Shakara walked to it and punched it, "...Is there anything you can't punch through?" Luigi asked, "Only what White Stain makes, but it doens't mean I can't crack it" Shakara answered, as she used the Launch Star and got launched to the other planet.
"Now, where is that Grand Star?" Shakara asked as Mario and Luigi arrived too, "So you arrived here!", A voice said, that's when a battleship like the ones that attacked the Mushroom Kingdom arrived, guided by a tiny Bowser, "I didn't think you would be able to come this far, but that doesn't matter! You stop here! Squash them Megaleg!" The tiny Bowser exclaimed, then went away, soon after, a giant three legged robot walked there.
Mario and Luigi looked at it in shock, but Shakara just smiled as she rushed to it, "Wait! What are you doing!?" Mario and Luigi asked, but that didn't stop Shakara as she was about to be squashed, but she lifted it's leg for a bit, but lost her grip and got stomped, the other wo were about to panic, but the ground started shaking and Megaleg's foot was being lifted.
The ground around it started crystallizing and a diamond mountain grew from it, "What is that!?" Luigi asked, as the mountain started cracking and forming into a humanoid body, "Just as I thought, this is going to be fun!" The mountain grew a mouth to say that, and it said it with Shakara's voice, and after that, the mountain turned smooth and looked exactly like Shakara, "Now the playing field is even!" She exclaimed as her hand started charging with electricity and punched one of the robot's legs.
"I understood that their world isn't exactly normal, but this is absurd!" Mario said as Shakara grabbed another of the legs and tore it off, she then charged more electricity in her hand and sent a shock down the metallic stump, causing the rest of the body to short circuit, she was going to continue, but got interrupted by Avaritia who teleported there, "Shakara! There is a problem!" She yelled as she destroyed Megaleg, freeing the Grand Star and turning Shakara back to normal, "Uh? What's going on?" Shakara asked.
The Comet Observatory.
The four of them arrived back at the Observatory, where theothers looked distressed, "What's going on!?" Shakara asked in a panic, "Something's attacking the Kingdom!" Paint asnswered, "What!?" Shakara exclaimed, "That's why I brought you back here, the attackers came from that Remnant place." Avaritia explained, "You're joking!? But we're already busy with this!" Shakara noted, "I know, that's why only you and Oracle are going" Avaritia told her.
"Okay, so you guys will deal with this, we'll deal with the intruders" Shakara summarized, Avaritia nodded in response before teleporting Shakara and Oracle to the Castle.
Vortex Castle.
They got there, and split up to see, if anything important was damaged or stolen, and something was indeed stolen, the worst thing that the intruders could have taken, the body of Shade.
Yes, this is the end of this book, I was intending for this event to happen at the end of the book, but then I realized that it could have happened before the end, so here we are, don't worry, this isn't the last time I'll write a book with Mario in it.
