Rogueport (Paper Mario: The Thousand Year Door)
"Uuugh..." Natsu groaned. "How much longer until I'm off of this thing?" He muttered.
"Didn't you cast Troia on him?" Gray asked.
"I did, but it seems like it wore off since we got on." Wendy said.
"Well, it IS a long way." Carla pointed out. "In fact, I do believe we're almost there."
"We are." Erza said and pointed in the distance. "Look, there's Rogueport." She said.
"Oh, sweet!" Happy grinned.
"Well this will be mighty interesting." Gray smirked.
With Mario and Luigi...
"Bro...bro!" Luigi shook Mario awake.
"Mmm...spaghetti..." Mario mumbled and then woke up. "Hmm?"
"We're almost there." Luigi said.
"Huh?" Mario looked up. "Oh would you look at that." He grinned.
"Alright boys, prepare to disembark!" The captain exclaimed. "...After that first boat moves away."
Back with the others...
The boat took off, and Team Natsu were left on the dock...while Natsu was on the ground, currently knocked out. "Alright, we're here." Erza said.
"Move it, sick boy." Gray kicked Natsu.
"Argh..." Natsu groaned before getting up and glaring at Gray. "You want to go? I feel much better after getting off of that boat!"
"Oh ho, I'm SO ready." Gray growled as they got ready...until they felt Erza's glare. "Gah!"
"If you're done bickering, we need to keep going." Erza said as the boys nodded and then walked away.
"Does it bother anyone else that there's walking bombs around?" Lucy asked.
"Oh good, you see them too." Happy said.
"I'm sure they mean no harm...I hope." Carla said as they walked up the stairs, only for a pink Goomba to run past them, followed by three people that actually shoved them while they were walking up the stairs. "Oof! Well...I never!"
"Watch it buddy!" Natsu growled before they continued onward right when Mario and Luigi hopped out of the boat.
"Well...this was not what I had in mind." Luigi said.
Mario shrugged. "Oh well, what can you do, I guess." He said. "Anyway, let's go find Peach."
"Right." He nodded as they started walking...when suddenly someone screamed.
"GET AWAY FROM ME!" The Pink Goomba screamed, causing Team Natsu to turn around.
Danger! Enemy Encounter! (Paper Mario: The Thousand Year Door)
"I'm telling you, I don't have it!" She exclaimed. "Will you just leave me alone?"
"Bah, we know you have that map, just give it to us and we won't hurt you." The big guy said.
"Why do you want that map so bad?" She asked. "What'd I ever do to you?"
"That map is the key to the ancient treasure, now hand it over."
"Heck no!"
"What in the world is going on over here?" Mario walked over to them.
The pink Goomba turned around and ran over to the Mario Bros. "I'd rather be with these guys than deal with a brute like you!"
"Whoa whoa whoa, what?" Luigi asked.
"Buh huh huh...you have two body guards? Impressive...but they'll be no match for good ol' Lord Crump!"
"Then how about a couple more?" A voice asked as they looked to see the others running to them. "What's the big idea picking on a little girl like that?" Natsu asked.
"MORE reinforcements?" Crump asked as he then growled. "Fine..." He said and looked at his henchmen. "Leave these guys to me boys, I'll take them out easily!" He chuckled.
Never Let Up! (Mario and Luigi: Dream Team)
"Here it comes! The Crump punishment!" He exclaimed as he ran over straight to Mario, but he pulled out his hammer and hammered him away over to Natsu.
"FIRE DRAGON'S IRON FIST!" Natsu yelled and fire punched Crump over to a wall, knocking him out already. "Wow...what a joke."
Danger! Enemy Encounter!
"Well that went over quick, I didn't even do anything!" Luigi sighed.
"Natsu usually gets things done quick." Gray said.
"Hey, he was asking for it." Natsu chuckled.
"Lord Crump, you okay?!" An X-Naut asked.
"I'm fine..." Crump growled. "But these guys ain't no pushovers...I think it's time to call in some backup." He said and then suddenly they were surrounded by tons of X-Nauts.
"Where did these guys come from?" Happy asked.
"Alright boys...PUNISH THEM!" Crump ordered as they charged after them.
"Oh geez!" Luigi exclaimed.
"I got this." Wendy said. "Shattering Light: SKY DRILL!" She yelled as all the X-Nauts were thrown around and blown away, sending all of them everywhere.
"Come on, this way!" The Pink Goomba exclaimed as she took off as they all followed her.
"You'll pay for this!" Crump exclaimed. "Someday, I will get you!" He growled as a fin circled around him. "...Ah crud..."
Rogueport
"Thanks for saving me." She said.
"It was nothing." Mario said. "If it weren't for these guys, I'm pretty sure we would've been screwed."
"Uh, you would've been alright, bro! I would've somehow been trapped and got my butt whooped, thank you very much!" Luigi told him.
"That happens?" Mario asked.
"IT HAPPENS ALL THE TIME!" Luigi yelled.
"So um, who are you guys?" The pink Goomba asked.
"I'm Mario, and this is my bro, Luigi." Mario introduced them. "And these guys are...uh..."
"We're from a guild called Fairy Tail." Natsu said. "I'm Natsu and this Lucy, Erza, Wendy, Gray, Happy and Carla."
"Hi." Lucy waved.
"Whoa whoa whoa, time out..." The Goomba blinked. "You're the famous Mario and uh...Luigi?"
"Yep." Mario nodded.
The Goomba turned to Team Natsu. "And your from that famous guild named Fairy Tail?"
"You've heard of us?" Natsu asked.
"Of course! I've seen the Grand Magic Games and you guys were incredible!"
"The Grand Magic what now?" Luigi asked.
"I've never heard of it." Mario shrugged. "Then again, I always save the princess every day." He said.
"Well never mind about that, I'm just so excited that I'm seeing famous people in front of my eyes!" The Goomba grinned. "My name's Goombella! What are you guys doing here?"
"We're here to meet up with Princess Peach." Mario said.
"We're here to look for the Ancient Treasure." Gray said.
"Ancient Treasure? Well, I'm pretty sure it's here, but...those brutes over there wanted a treasure map to get to the Thousand Year Door, but...I don't have it."
"A map?" Mario pulled a map out of his pocket. "You mean this thing that came with the letter?" He asked.
"Let me see that." Goombella requested and looked over it. "Yep! This is it!"
"What's so important about this map? He could've gotten another map if he wanted one so badly." Natsu said as he took it as his team looked over it. "Looks more like a normal map to me."
"You don't get it! This map has magical properties!" Goombella exclaimed.
"Really? Looks like a normal map to me." Gray said.
"There's more than meets the eye here." Erza said. "It could be a magical map...or it could be a normal map."
"It's magical." Goombella said.
"Uh-huh..." Mario folded his arms.
"Well I'll be! If it isn't Masters Mario and Luigi!" A voice exclaimed as they turned over to see Toadsworth walking up to them. "...And others...? Never mind, have you boys seen Princess Peach?"
"Nope, we just got here." Luigi replied.
"Oh, this is bad...you all know how incredibly headstrong she is...and with a town full of ruffians, she could be in serious trouble. Go find her!" He said. "If you boys need me, I'll be over at that inn. Drop on inn if you need me." He said as he walked away. "Heheh, that was a good one." He chuckled.
"Peach is here too? We gotta go find her!" Goombella exclaimed.
"But she could be anywhere in this town." Mario said.
"Don't worry, we can find her!" Natsu said. "Happy, pick me up!"
"Aye, sir!" Happy picked up Natsu and flew up.
"A flying talking cat?" Luigi asked.
"What, flying talking turtles don't bother you?" Mario asked.
"Hey, when have we ever encountered a cat enemy?" Luigi asked.
"Good point."
"I don't see her...probably because I don't know WHAT she looks like." Natsu said as he soon landed near a building. "I guess we'll have to find her on foot." He said and then started walking...only to step on something.
Laughter and Merriment (Kingdom Hearts II)
"...Please tell me that wasn't the contact lens I was looking for." A female said as Natsu lifted his foot and there was a squished contact lens. "NO!"
"Oh...that sucks..." Natsu blinked.
"Who drops their contact lens on the ground?" Happy wondered as the others walked up.
"I'm sure he didn't mean to." Erza said. "No one would've spotted it anyway."
The female Toad growled and glared at Natsu. "Now you're going to pay for that!" She exclaimed. "I need new contact lens!"
"Couldn't you just go get new ones in your house?" Natsu asked.
"New ones?! I don't have any spare contact lenses! Do I look stupid to you?" She asked.
"Uh..." Natsu blinked. "I'm not going to answer that."
"If I had my contact lenses, I'd be kicking you in the shin! But no...I can't see jack!" She growled. "So until I get a new contact lens, the western side of Rogueport will be blocked by me! You can thank Sir Stomps-a-lot for that."
"Hey! Why are you blocking us? It's not our fault that he stepped on your contact lens!" Lucy exclaimed. "It was a total accident!"
"No, he did it on purpose! I dropped my contact lenses and he goes ahead and steps on it, so he should go get a new one!"
"It's not his fault, it's yours. You're clumsy!" Carla growled.
"If I was clumsy, I would've lost my contact lenses a long time ago, so I'm not! West Rogueport is closed off until I get new ones...and he will have to give them to me!"
"Mama mia..." Mario sighed.
"Well fine!" Natsu growled. "I didn't want to go over there in the first place, Western Rogueport probably sucks anyways!" He said as he stormed off.
"Zess T is at it again..." Goombella sighed.
"I wonder how much a contact lens costs?" Lucy wondered as she walked to the store. "Um, yeah...i'm just wondering how much a contact lens cost."
"Did Zess T drop hers again? This is like the fourth time this month..." The Toad clerk sighed. "She should really watch where she's going. We'll have to order one so It'll take a while."
"Okay." Lucy nodded and then walked out. "It'll be a while."
"Well there's nothing we can do here. Let's go to Professor Frankly, maybe he'll know where Peach is." Goombella said as she guided them to the other side of town.
====================================================================================================
I was tempted to have the chapter end after they agreed to go find Peach, but then I thought "Why not add a funny scene where Natsu accidentally stepped on Zess T's contact lens?" You knew what happened next.
