The Brobot is exactly what inspired the Super L-flyer. It's pretty much the same thing, I just gave it a different name because it had a different pilot. I was going to do Yoshi's Fruit Adventure, but I decided against it because the Yoshi's left Isle Delfino long ago, and didn't come back until a later point in the game. So it wouldn't make any sense to meet a Yoshi this early on.

I decided to put the raccoon powerup in this out of nowhere since I wanted something to deflect the ammo. But I'll agree, Aqua may be 6 years old, but when you hurt her friends, she won't be very forgiving.


Shadow Mario's Lair

Shadow Luigi: Hmph! Mario is certainly getting stronger. And so is his little brat! I guess I'll just have to hope the boss's weapon can destroy them.

?: Hah! Who needs some piece of junk? I AM a weapon! And I feel like destroying something!

The doppelgänger turned to see a tall slender green woman (or at least she seemed to be a woman. Something about her wasn't exactly feminine.) with short hair, a crown, and a long dress. Oh no! Another awfully familiar description!

Shadow Luigi: So, you think you have what it takes?

?: You bet! Bring it on, and I'll rip it up!

Shadow Luigi: Then why don't you prove it by ripping those who apart in Gelato Beach?

?: Alright! Bring it on! AHAHAHAHAHA!

The figure dashed out the door by crashing right through it. Leaving behind a huge hole. Shadow Luigi sweatdropped and put a hand on his head.

Shadow Luigi: Oh… help me…


Delfino Plaza

A helicopter came and landed in front of the Grand Pianta Statue. Out of it came Mario, Aqua, and Ricco Harbor's captain.

Aqua: Thanks for taking us back!

Captain: It was my pleasure. Thank you for saving Ricco Harbor! We are eternally within your debt.

Mario: No problem! So, what's next for you?

Captain: Well my boy, leisure is a big part of life. But so is work! It's about time for me to head for home in my private helicopter. As for you and your daughter, keep up the good work.

Mario: She's not my daughter. She's my friend.

Captain: Oh, I'm sorry. It's just that she's so young standing next to you, and you both have the same hair color, that I came to that assumption. My bad! Anyway, best of luck for what lies ahead of you. You two are quite spunky ones!

The captain climbed back into his helicopter and took off. Mario and Aqua waved as he flew away.

Mario: I suppose we should be getting back to work as well.

Toadsworth: Oh, thank goodness you're back! The princess has been feeling kinda weird lately.

Aqua: What's wrong with her?

Toadsworth: I don't know. She kept saying that she had a bad feeling. I tried taking her for a walk to get her mind off of it, but it didn't work. Go and talk to her.

They went over to Peach. She seemed to be shivering behind her umbrella.

Mario: Peach, are you okay?

Peach: Oh, I'm getting that feeling again. This is not good…

Mario: Did something bad happen?

Peach: It feels like it! Plus, I haven't seen the toads in a while. Mario, Aqua, please check it out for me…

Mario: Don't worry, we'll go look.

Aqua: Will you be okay?

Peach: I-I'll be fine! J-Just go!

The heroes turned to go look for the problem. Aqua turned back briefly out of worry for her big sister.

Aqua: Mario, what's wrong with Peach?

Mario: I don't know. All this darkness and chaos going on is making her act a little off. I just hope she'll be okay.

Aqua: Me too.

FLUDD: ...D.E.B.S. ALERT...According to new information, the lighthouse on the eastern coast has disappeared. Investigations are now underway…

Mario: Another one? So that's what made her worried. Here we go!

They head to the eastern coast in front of the fruit market, where people would lay to get themselves a nice tan. But obviously, no one can do that with all the Shine Sprites running away. Then they saw it: BLACK GOOP! And a generator. They knew where this was going.

FLUDD: Looks like another Proto Piranha to take care of.

Mario: Of course.

He sprayed the generator and out came the Proto Piranha.

Aqua: I'm getting tired of this thing…

Mario: You said it.

He beat it by spraying water into its mouth three times. It seemed to be defeated, but then it came back while summoning lots of Goobles. Aqua took care of those while Mario did his thing a second time. After the Proto Piranha was defeated, the goop disappeared and a lighthouse rose out of the ground with the third "M" symbol. Along came Toad and Toadette!

Mario: There you guys are! Peach was worried about you!

He washed them off with FLUDD and they jumped for joy.

Toad: Thanks guys! I thought we were goners!

Toadette: You won't believe what I learned before getting buried! A long time ago, Yoshis lived on this island as well.

Aqua: Yoshis?! You mean REAL ones?!

Toadette: Uh huh!

Aqua: I've always wanted to meet one! I've seen them in books and on TV! They're so cute!

Mario: Well, you're in luck! I happen to have a friend who's a Yoshi back in the Mushroom Kingdom. And believe it or not, if it weren't for him, I wouldn't be where I am today. We have a pretty special bond, and anyone who's a friend of mine, is a friend of his.

Aqua squealed in delight.

Aqua: EEEEEEE! I can't wait to meet him!

Mario couldn't help but giggle a little.

Mario: Yeah, I wish Peach had invited him. He definitely would've loved this place with all the sea food.

Aqua: That's how Yoshi's are.

FLUDD: I hate to interrupt this Yoshi talk, but we gotta get going.

Mario: Oh, right! See you later, Toad and Toadette! Don't forget to keep an eye out for Shine Sprites!

Toadette: We will!

Mario sprayed the M to reveal the image of a beautiful, sandy beach.

Mario: Open salami!

They turned into particles that went inside of the M.


Gelato Beach

The isle's largest beach sprawls under perfect blue skies. Have a swim, enjoy a famous smoothie, and bask in the glow of the Shine Tower.

The duo was introduced to one of the most beautiful places on the isle!

Mario: Mamma Mia…

Aqua: Wow!

FLUDD: Welcome to Gelato Beach! A sunny beach resort located next to Ricco Harbor and is at the stomach part of the dolphin shape of Isle Delfino. It also happens to be the largest and sunniest beach on the isle as well!

Mario: Amazing! Looks like a lot to do here. I don't even know where to start!

FLUDD: Let me explain as you explore.

Before they could start though, a brown, dancing Pianta stopped them.

Pianta: Hey, you! Don't get the water dirty here! And don't step on the Dune Buds!

Mario: We weren't planning to! Why would anyone wanna ruin a place like this?

Pianta: Sorry, I've been hearing about graffiti artists on other parts of the isle, and I don't want them ruining this poor beach. Thanks for your cooperation!

Aqua: You're welcome!

They got to exploring and FLUDD acted as a tour guide.

FLUDD: Now to get started, do you see those creatures walking all over the beach?

Mario and Aqua looked around and noticed blue spherical creatures with duck-like beaks and two large green spots with yellow surrounding them on both sides (possibly their eyes).

Aqua: What are those?

FLUDD: Those large-billed Cataquacks tend to be very territorial. So, when they spot outsiders such as us, they go wild! They'll run up and hurl you into the air, but they mean no harm.

As if on cue, one of the Cataquacks spotted them and ran towards the two.

Mario: No! No! No! No!

Aqua: No thank you!

But the duck-billed creature didn't listen to them and used its large beak to hurl them high up into the air.

Mario and Aqua: WHAAAAAAAAAAAHAHAHA!

Mario landed first on the soft white sand and Aqua landed on top of them. They didn't get hurt one bit. Both laughed for a bit and got up.

Mario: Okay, that was fun!

FLUDD: Just stay away from red ones! Their sharp beaks will hurt!

Mario: Thanks. We'll keep that in mind.

Their next stop was a sprout sticking out of the sand.

FLUDD: Now, this here is what we call a Dune Bud. Dune Buds are odd plants that appear only on this beach. If you water them, strange things will happen. Observe.

A shelled creature called a Noki walked over and watered the dune bud. Without warning, a large mound popped out of the ground and shot the Noki into the air before the mound sank back into sand.

Mario: Interesting…

Aqua: That looks like fun, too!

Right here we have the Sand Cabana. It's a small market where you can buy fruit and surf boards.

They continued walking to the west side of the beach where another cabana was found on the water.

FLUDD: This is the Surf Cabana. This is where you can get some of the most famous juice smoothies! Yummers!

Mario and Aqua: Mmm! Mmm!

Their mouths both watered just thinking about them and ran towards the store. A single Pianta employee was there.

Mario: Hello! Two watermelon smoothies, please!

Pianta: Oh, customers! Sorry, we're all out! I'm still waiting for the next delivery of watermelon. They probably won't come until the Watermelon Festival.

Aqua: Aw man!

Mario: Wait…

He noticed a Shine Sprite in the glass behind him.

Mario: What's that doing in there?!

Pianta: Oh, you mean the Shine Sprite? Don't know. It's been in there for a couple days. Probably won't come out until I can get a watermelon to blend. Come back by then, and you can have it.

Mario: Alright, we'll remember.

They walked back out and traveled farther inland to look at the large tower surrounded by three mirrors.

Mario: Guess we'll have to come back to that one later.

FLUDD: This tower enshrines the egg of the legendary Sand Bird. The three mirrors surrounding the tower gather the sun's rays and keep the egg warm until the day it hatches. They've been doing that for over 100 years, and the egg is almost ready to hatch!

Mario and Aqua: Woah!

Mario: Does this mean we could actually see the Sand Bird hatch?!

Aqua: I hope so!

Mario: I wonder what this "Sand Bird" will look like…

Getting it off their minds for now, Mario sprayed a dune bud near the wall to reveal stairs that took them up to the highest point of the hills in the back, where their were spectating seats giving off a view of the whole beach.

Mario: Would you look at that! You can see everything from here!

Aqua: I love it! I know we've only been here for a few minutes, but I think this might be my favorite spot on the island.

Mario: You think? I'm kinda leaning towards that too, but I'm not gonna decide just yet, because we haven't been to the hotel or amusement park yet.

Aqua: Oh right! I can't wait until we see that!

Mario: You bet!

They sat down in the spectating seats for awhile to take a short break without any police coming to interrupt them. Mario started to tear up a bit.

Aqua: You okay, Mario?

Mario: I'm fine, Aqua. I just wish the others were here. Peach definitely would love this place.

Aqua: Yeah, I agree. Speaking of my sister… are you two… Are you…

Mario: Huh?

Aqua: Are you two… together in a… mommy and daddy… way?

Mario blushed and thought she was just messing with him, but the look in her adorable, cerulean eyes made him tell that she was serious.

Mario: Well… sort of…?

FLUDD suddenly joined in and spoke for Mario.

FLUDD: Mario does happen to have romantic feelings for Princess Peach. He's just too shy to admit it!

Mario: FLUDD!

FLUDD: Someone had to say it!

Mario: Okay, fine! I do like your sister, okay?! I just don't know how to tell her. I may have saved her in the past, and she gave me a kiss in appreciation, and I enjoy her cake. But in the long line, she's royalty, and I'm just a lowly plumber. What if she doesn't like me in that way?

Aqua: Don't worry. I think she likes you! Last night, she told me you were kinda cute.

Mario: Cute?

Mario's face turned as red as his own clothes.

Aqua: Is that sunburn?!

Mario: What?! No! No! It's just… Let's just go look for a Shine Sprite.

Aqua: Okay… You sure you're okay?

Mario: I'm fine! I'm fine!

They head back down to the beach. A purple Pianta approached them.

Pianta: Hey, have you ever heard of the Sand Portal?

Mario and Aqua: Sand Portal?

Pianta: It's a sand castle that appears, then crumbles away quickly. It's summoned by a dune bud.

Mario: Must not have a very good foundation. Let's look for it!

Mario used FLUDD to try and find said Sand Portal. After a few throws in the air by dune buds, he finally found it. A sand castle rises into the air, and immediately starts to crumble.

Mario: Quick! Before it crumbles!

They dashed into the castle's 'entrance' and vanished.


?

They appear again in the white void.

Mario: Alright, be on your guard! We're not gonna let them take-

Before he could finish, a green blur swiped FLUDD and the hover nozzle off their backs. She revealed herself to be a Daisy look-alike, blew a raspberry at them, and vanished.

Mario: -FLUDD…

Aqua: Aw...


They entered a new secret stage that had the same background as the ones in Bianco Hills. It is composed of these platforms made of sand, leading up to a large structure at the end.

?: Good luck on this one, chumps! Bahaha!

Aqua: Looks easy! I'll just-

She steps on a sand block, only for it to sink and disappear. She screamed and hugged Mario.

Mario: Aqua, if you want to go on my back for this, it's totally fi-

Aqua: No, no, no! I gotta… try to be brave… as hard as it is…

The two made a run for it on the sand blocks. Even having near death experiences at certain points. Soon making it to the top where they got to the Shine Sprite.

Mario: That was a close call.

Aqua: True… but we made it!

SHINE!

Mario: WHA-HA!

Aqua: YEAH!


Hope you enjoyed this introduction to Gelato Beach!

Aqua: I loved the part when you made me think Mario's blush was sunburn!

It was clever, I know! Thanks for reading! See you later!
