Chapter 24: Top of the Town
Next up on our journey is Wet-Dry World.
Toad sighed. "Look, dude, I had my patience with you before, but could you please update a little faster?"
"Yeah!" Blue Toad said.
"Well, let's do it." I said.
The four Toad heroes came out of the invisible painting of Snowman's Land and walked out of the mirror room.
"Well, that was a weird experience." Yellow Toad said.
"So, where are we going next, Toads? I don't have all day." Blue Toad said.
"Well, there are a lot of paintings here. Some of which we have already seen before. I'm not sure where to start." Toad said.
"How about this one?" Toadette said, as she saw a painting depicting a huge blue spider with a sky background.
"No! I don't want to go in there! Please don't let me go in there!" Yellow Toad said, afraid of the spider.
"Oh, yes, you are!" Blue Toad said, as he grabbed Yellow Toad under arms, and took him into the painting as Toad and Toadette follow. They jumped into the middle and landed to...Wet-Dry World, which the hero Toads landed on. They landed on a plank floating in a half flooded abandoned uptown.
"What's this place?" Toadette said.
"I don't know. I guess this was a town that got abandoned due to floods and this is what remains of it." Toad said.
"Guys, I see the star, but it's way up high there!" Yellow Toad said.
"And just how do we get up there?" Blue Toad said.
"Maybe there's a way to raise the water. I think there's a switch up there." Toad said. "Remind me to check." Toad said as he went. The other three wait down here.
"Well, I'll go. I could use some action." Yellow Toad said.
"You? Like you would have the bravery to do it. You're afraid of heights like Green is." Blue Toad said.
"I may not be the bravest of the gang, but that doesn't mean I'll be useless. I can jump the highest, so I can make it up there the easiest!" Yellow Toad said. "Just watch me!"
Yellow Toad then jumped to a spiral platform and ran up the building.
"You go, Yellow!" Toadette cheered Yellow Toad on.
Yellow Toad then tried to jump up a huge cliff, but it's so high that not even he can make it up there.
"Oh man!" Yellow Toad said.
"He can't do it." Blue Toad said.
"Well, if he can't get up there, then none of us can!" Toad said.
"How will I ever get up there?" Yellow Toad said.
While he was thinking, a mechanical enemy known as a Heave-Ho came in front of him and launched him into the air and onto the top platform.
"Well, that solves his problem." Toadette said.
Yellow Toad got up a little dizzy and spotted a switch up ahead and activated it, allowing the water level to rise.
"Nice job, Yellow!" Toad said.
"Thanks, buddy!" Yellow Toad said.
The heroic Toads went on a plank and tried to balance themselves, but then it wobbled and fell on its side. Luckily, the Toads held on tight.
"Blue, would it kill you to hold on tight?" Toad said.
"Says the guy who's been on the top for so long!" Blue Toad said.
"Stop fighting and let's get to the end." Yellow Toad said.
The heroic Toads inched across the disbalanced plank, dodging the electric amps floating, because one volt of electricity would lead to their doom. They made it across and claimed the star up ahead.
"Yahoo!" Toad said.
