The Thousand Year Door: Diamond Star
Danny, Vlad, Mario, Goombella, and Koops were attending a party in Petalburg that was held in honor of them.
"Woo hoo! It's-a me!" shouted Mario for a crowd of fans.
Many teenage female fans were crowding around Danny.
"Marry me Danny!" shouted a koopa.
"We love you Danny!" shouted a group of female toads, one pink, one green, and one blue.
"Danny! Look over here!" said another koopa.
"Ack! Get off me! I can't breath!" shouted Danny as his fans mobbed him.
"I got his emblem!" "I got his belt!" "I got his gloves! "I got his boots!" "I got the bottom of his jumpsuit!" "I got the top!"
The fans left with the ones with Danny's clothes being chased by the ones without. Leaving Danny in nothing but his underwear.
Vlad walked up to Danny and said, "Uh, why didn't you just phase out of them, Daniel?"
Danny smacked his head and walked away to a tailors.
Koops and his family got away from the festivities to his house along with the mayor.
"Well that festival is certainly getting wild," said Koopley.
"We're going to have a field day with clean up tomorrow," said Kroop.
"I don't think anyone will forget this," said Koopley.
"You're right there," said Kroop.
While Koopley and Kroop were talking Koops was sitting in the corner. Koopie Koo went to see what was wrong.
"Hey Koops," said Koopie Koo.
"Hey…" said Koops.
"What's wrong? You beat Hooktail, be happy," said Koopie Koo.
"I have a lot on my mind," said Koops.
"About how you're going to live around here now? Yeah, I gue-" said Koopie Koo before she was cut off.
"It's not that, it's… You're going to be angry when you hear this," said Koops.
"No I'm not, tell me," said Koopie Koo.
"Well," said Koops, "I'm thinking about joining Danny and the others on their journey."
"Really?" asked Koopie Koo.
"Yes, I hope you're not too angry," said Koops.
Koopie Koo smiled at Koops for a few seconds before she hugged him and said, "Oh I'm not angry! I'm proud that you'd consider joining them!"
Koops blushed at this sudden affection and said, "R-really?"
"Yes, I've been holding you back because I thought you were a weak child," said Koopie Koo.
"Hey!" said Koops.
Koopie Koo giggled and continued, "But now I see you're a strong man. You should help Danny and those guys."
"Thanks Koopie Koo," said Koops.
They just looked at each other for a little while before they started moving towards each other. They were about to touch when Mario knocked down the door saying, "Come on! We have to go!"
Koops and Koopie Koo were embarrassed but Koopie Koo gave Koops a quick kiss before he left.
Outside Mario, Vlad, Danny, and Goombella were waiting.
Danny now had new clothes. He wore a black shirt with long sleeves, white fingerless gloves, a white vest, a white belt with a black DP emblem buckle, black pants, and white boots. He also had a small silver necklace with a DP emblem.
"Danny, why are your clothes different?" asked Koops.
"Don't ask," said Danny as he started to fly away.
"We better go," said Vlad. They others agreed and followed.
After getting a message from Peach saying she's ok, going down pipes, and walking through Rougeport Sewers Danny and the others eventually made it to the Thousand Year Door. Of course Danny and Vlad lost their powers upon approaching the door.
"Ok, I think Koops should do the honors," said Danny.
"But wait, can't only Mario use the stars?" asked Goombella.
"We'll see," said Danny.
Koops stepped to the center of the of the podium and held the star up. The effects took effect immediately. The glowing blue patterns formed around them and the almost anti-gravity came. This time through at a circular pattern in the circle of them closest to the door started glowing diamond and the star appeared there. The map flew from Mario's pocket to Koops' hands. A large black and white tree and an emerald colored star appeared on it in a place north of Rougeport. After that everything went back to normal.
"Uh, where is this place?" asked Koops.
"We better talk to Frankly," said Danny.
Everyone agreed and they left.
At Frankly's house they told him about the map.
He studied it for awhile and came up with an answer. "This my friends it Boggly Woods," said the professor.
"Where?" asked Danny.
"Boggly Woods, it's far north of here. A good three days of walking or flying," said Frankly.
"Then how do we get there before someone else does?" asked Vlad.
"Well there's this pipe down in the sewers, there's an entrance near the Thousand Year Door," said Frankly.
"Ok then, we know how to get there. Let's go," said Mario.
"Also remember this," said Frankly as he held up a picture of a small grey creature with a yellow bulb attached to an antenna on it's head, "These creatures inhabit Boggly Woods."
"Ok professor, let's go," said Goombella.
In the sewers they reached where the entrance should be.
"Well now we have to find this entrance," said Vlad.
"Hey, what's that?" asked Koops as he pointed to one of the creatures Frankly showed them. Only this one had a green bulb. It ran into a hole as soon as it saw them.
"After it!" said Goombella.
They went through some bars covering a doorway to where the creature went and found it huddled in a corner.
"Don't hurt me!" said the creature.
"We're not going to hurt you," said Danny. "I'm Danny. These guys are Vlad, Mario, Koops, and Goombella. What's your name?"
"P-pu-punio," said Punio, "Are you sure you're not going to hurt me?"
"Of course not," said Danny, "Maybe you can help us, we're looking for the Crystal Star somewhere in your woods."
"Ack I knew it! You're one of those X-Nauts aren't you?" accused Punio.
"X-Nauts? Those sound like a brand of tissues, to the extreme," said Koops.
"Listen here you," said Vlad before Danny stopped him.
"Hey, if those X-Nauts are after the star then maybe they kidnapped Peach too," said Mario.
"Wait, the X-Nauts hurt you too?" asked Punio.
"Yeah, they kidnapped a friend of ours," said Danny.
"Then you can't be with them," said Punio, "Ok, I'll help, follow me."
Punio led them to the pipe to Boggly Woods and they entered.
