No reviews, so no review return yet. Sorry!

Ario and Quilace step out of Ario's tank, which a random toad took to the valet parking.

"Well, I guess this starts a new adventure for me." Ario said after sniffing the fresh air, not noticing Quilace was right behind him, giving him a stare. "Er... I mean us."

Quilace then turned back to his normal expression. "Did you pack everything?" Quilace said, looking around for P-Bot.

"Well, since we only need our infinite suitcase for this, I guess I did."

"Well, let's see if you actually remembered. I've got the list of stuff right here." Quilace said, pulling said list out.

"So, 100 MK coins, 3 mushrooms, 1 super mushroom, and a 1-up mushroom?" Ario said while looking through the suitcase.

"Yup. That's everything." Quilace then looked ahead. "How long do ya suppose this journey will take?"

"A week, maybe." Ario said, closing the suitcase.

"Well, let's find P-Bot. He said he'd be here." Quilace then stepped forward.

"Fine." Ario then followed him.

EVENTUALLY…

"…And that's how ya beat Cagnazzo in Final Fantasy: Dawn of Souls." Quilace said.

"By giving him repeated Thundagas to the face with your black mage, having your ninja cast haste on yourself and your knight, while your white mage nulall's everyone?" Ario said, remembering he couldn't beat him before.

"Yup." Quilace then looks up at the airship in front of him. "P-BOT! YOU UP THERE?" He yells up to P-bot.

The airship he had was huge, enough to easily fit 400 people, had it not been for cargo usage. It was mostly black with some orange highlights.

P-Bot then looks down at them from the deck. "Get into the lower hatch, and we'll take off." He says in a monotone robotic voice.

"Alright then." Quilace said as he and Ario get into the lower hatch.

The massive ship starts to take off…

"WAIT! DON'T LEAVE ME BEHIND!" A voice out of nowhere says.

"Hm?" Quilace said while turning around. Looking into the distance, he saw something run towards him, it had fire on it. It was Quill, Quilace's Quilava. The only thing that made him different from other Quilava was that he was slightly taller, and he had blue goggles.

"QUILL!" He yelled to his Quilava. He then got a phone that connected to the control room since he was already inside the ship. "P-BOT! GRAB QUILL WITH THE ROBOT HAND!"

"Confirmed." P-Bot then activated the robot hand, aiming to catch Quill and put him on the deck.

Then, the hand Grabbed Quill and slammed him onto the deck. "Ow…."

MEANWHILE…

A voice came over the intercom. "Quill is on the main deck. I'm afraid you have to come up to get him, though."

"Well… crap." Quilace said, sitting on a random crate.

"Get up! It gives us an excuse to explore this place!" Ario said after slapping Quilace in the back of the head.

"Fine, gosh." Quilace then got up and followed Ario.

While wandering around, they found pipe-bots everywhere. The pipe-bots were simple humanoid robots made of black piping.

They passed by a pair of them, one of which had white piping, the other one being default black, and they were conversing with each other.

"Remember, if one person hits this kind of block, the same person can't hit it again until someone else hits it." The white one said randomly.

"I know that, it's you that has to remember." The black one said.

"Whaddya think that means?" Quilace whispered to Ario.

"Dunno. Maybe it has to do with the fact the block will change from having an A to having a Q?" Ario whispered back.

After passing through a few rooms, Ario and Quilace see that pictures are being taken. Ario walks up to the orange pipe-bot taking the pictures.

"Why are you taking pictures?" He asks.

"Simple. The Beanbean Kingdom is a different country, you need an ID of some type." He responds. "Now go away, all these bots need pictures."

Quilace then checked the suitcase, finding that they had ID's, but no pictures on them. "That's weird."

"What?" Ario says to him, not noticing what he has.

"We have ID's, but there's no picture."

"You need pictures? Step on the mat, and I'll take one for you. You two can skip ahead since you're needed on the deck." The orange pipe-bot said.

"Sweet! I'll get mine done first!" Quilace said stepping on the mat, not noticing Ario was right behind him.

"Ario, I'll need you to move."

"Sorry, force of habit." Ario said while backing away.

"Don't do something stupid, Quilace."

"I won't." Quilace then makes an insane smile, showing his big pointy tooth at the last second.

"Good enough. Ario, you're next."

"Alright." Ario then steps up, not noticing Quilace was right behind him.

"Quilace, you already got your picture taken."

"Sorry, force of habit." Quilace said while baking away.

"Odd that you both did that. Anyway, don't do anything stupid, Ario."

"I won't." Ario makes a thumbs-up at the last second.

"Good enough. Move on, now. P-Bot is expecting you."

"Later, orange pipe guy!" Quilace said while putting the ID's in the suitcase.

Why would they be right behind each other? Ah, well. "Next!"

MEANWHILE…

"Where are they?" Quill says while he's next to P-Bot.

"In the livestock/common enemies hold. Maybe they can help the pipe-bot type R robots with something…" P-bot said.

A BIT LATER…

"Let's see, we got 55 goombas in storage, but 6 escaped… ugh. I'm going to be reprimanded for this." A red pipe-bot said.

"Need help getting goombas into a crate or something?" Quilace said, approaching the bot.

"Yes. I'm not fast enough to catch them, maybe you can." He said while pointing at one. "It should slow down if you jump on it's head, but we pipe-bots have no way of jumping."

"Ario! Help me catch these goombas!" Quilace said before noticing Ario was behind him the whole time.

"I'm right here, Quilace. Jeez." Ario said with a bored expression. Am I that good at sneaking around or something?

Quilace then tries to body slam the goomba, but it almost gets out of the way, only getting hit by Quilace's hand.

A trippy sequence happens and the scene changes…

To a battle for the next chapter.

Well, next time, we'll see Ario and Quilace fight... A goomba.
