Koops sighed, as he walked through Hooktail's castle.

Here I go, Here I go.

Mario and Goombella grabbed his arms, and willed him to go faster. "Whoa!" Goombella smiled. "We aren't gonna find the star faster!"

Feel better now,

Feel better now.

He smiled, sighing a bit.

Here I go

Here I go

It's better now

Feel better now.

He stood in front of the large Hooktail, and was still

Do you remember? When we fell under?

He shot his shell at her, courageous and determined.

Did you expect me to reason with thunder?

I still remember when time was frozen…

He stared at the blue shell, as tears welled in his eyes. "Koops?"

What seemed forever was just a moment…

Through the adventure, the group always pulled him along. He willingly let himself go, and ran with them.

Hurry up, hurry up!

Star after star, day after day, night after night, they all smiled in the worst of times.

Vivian held up her arms, and grinned at him, to which he smiled back.

There's no more waiting!

He called out, when Mario was about to be sicked on by a Putrid Pirahana. He turned to his shell and shot himself in front of him. He knocked the enemy with his mouth, and spun on the ground.

We're still worth saving!

He loved the glow of the stars when they lead the way to the next. He took a breath, and closed his eyes. Gonzales Jr. happily cheered.

Feel the light!

Shining in the dark of night

Remember what we forgot

He narrowed his eyes, as the stars glowed around the Shadow Queen, or Peach, Both?

I know it's a long shot

But we're bringing it all back

We're bringing it all back

He saw Peach fall to the ground, and everyone run to her. Breathing in sighs as they saw she was just fine.

Feel the light

Shining like the stars tonight

Remember what we forgot

I know it's a long shot

But we're bringing it all back

We're bringing it all back….
