To Dario Flaman: I'm glad you liked that joke. :P

Theme of the Punies (Paper Mario: The Thousand Year Door)

"So what did you do while we were gone?" Goofy asked Donald as they were walking by the tree stump. "Just sitting around while the Punis were playing I Spy." Donald replied.

"He was also muttering something that we could not understand, I think it was Japanese." Punio said. "Or he could've been cursing." Puniper thought as they went in the warp pipe.

"Knowing Donald, the latter would've sounded just like him." Sora said. "Yeah...and besides, does Donald even know Japanese?" Goofy asked as Donald rolled his eyes.

"I wonder..." Mario said as he ground pounded the platform next to the pedestal as the Punis looked down. "Okay, so how are we going to get down there?" Petuni asked...right when Sora put the orb in the pedestal.

"So SHINY!" A Puni said. "EVERYONE! WE MUST FORM A LADDER TO GET IT!" Punio declared. "No way! I'll get it MYSELF!" Puniper yelled as Flurrie rolled her eyes and blew wind at them, sending them to where Mario was as Sora took it off.

"Okay, how do we keep winding up in random places?" Punio asked as everyone else landed next to them. "You're always brainwashed by the Puni Orb." Koops told them. "Yeah right, like we believe that." Puniper said. "Worth a try." Koops muttered to himself as they went in the Warp Pipe.

Once they came out of the warp pipe, they noticed lily pads on the ground and pillars to jump on. "I wonder..." Sora said as he jumped on the pillars while Mario and Goofy followed him while the others looked around.

"These Lily pads...something about them..." Goombella said as she pulled out her book. "What's so bad about these Lily Pads?" Koops asked as some of the Punis were looking around.

"What's with this switch?" Sora asked as he pressed it, as the other switch sunk into the water. "Wait a minute, lift your foot up." Mario said as Sora lifted his foot, as the switch rose from the water. "I have an idea." Mario said.

"Hmm, according to my Tattle Log, there's supposed to be water in here." Goombella said. "Water? Yeeeeah, I don't see any." Punio said when suddenly he felt something drip on his head. "Oh!" Punio exclaimed as he looked up, as more water started to drip.

"Does it rain in a tree?" Koops asked. "No, I think those three did something." Goombella replied as the ones on the lower ground ran up the stairs to avoid the water.

"Nice timing with that Strike Raid!" Goofy complimented with a smile. "Thanks." Sora smiled as he got off of the switch and went back down to the Warp Pipe with the other two.

"Well that explains the Lily Pads." Koops said as they walked forward where the trio was, and then Mario noticed a Shine Sprite above one lily pad. "What...?" Mario wondered before getting in the Warp Pipe while ignoring the Shine Sprite.

"A pedestal...that's all there is in this room." Goombella said. "There's probably something else here." Sora said as he put the Puni Orb in the pedestal.

"SHINY!" A Puni yelled. "IT'S MINE!" Puniper yelled. "HEY! YOU SHOULD BE A GENTLEMAN AND GIVE IT TO ME!" Petuni yelled.

Once all one hundred and one Punis were on the platform, it lowered to another area of the tree. "Whoa, this is cool." Sora said as he took the Puni Orb off."

"Are we in another area?" Punio asked. "It seems like it." Koops said as they continued onward.

Meanwhile...

Laughter and Merriment (Kingdom Hearts II)

"God damnit, where is that Crystal Star?" Crump asked as he looked around. "It's not like it's invisible or anything, but SHEESH...how hard is it to get one single star?" He wondered when suddenly his feet started to shake. "Uh oh, sounds like a mob coming in. Better get the heck out of here!" He said as he ran off.

"Another pedestal? Good lord..." Goombella said as Sora sighed at this. "Well let's see what happens." Sora said as he put the Puni Orb in the pedestal.

"SHIIINY!" The Punis yelled as they went on the platform and looked at it.

Suddenly, the statue in the middle of the statues glowed bright as a Crystal Star appeared right above it and landed behind the pedestal. "SCORE!" Sora yelled as he took the orb off the pedestal.

"Okay, I dunno what just happe-HEY! The Crystal star!" Punio exclaimed happily.

"I DON'T KNOW HOW YOU GUYS GOT OUT OF THAT BRILLIANTLY AWESOME TRAP, BUT THAT CRYSTAL STAR IS MINE!" Yelled a voice as they turned to see Crump running towards the Crystal Star. "OH NO YOU DON'T!" Sora yelled.

Rowdy Rumble (Kingdom Hearts II)

Sora ran towards the Crystal Star, but Crump grabbed it. "I GOT IT!" He yelled, but Flurrie blew wind at the Crystal Star, blowing it off of Crump's hands. "...I HAD it..." He muttered as he looked as Sora took it. "Sorry, Crump. But this Crystal Star is ours."

"INCOOOOOMING!" yelled a voice as an X-Naut tackled Sora, making him drop the Crystal Star as it bounced to the Punis. "I GOT IT!" Punio yelled as he ran towards it but an X-Naut took it. "I don't got it..." He muttered.

Koops spun in his shell and tackled the X-Naut as Donald took it. "I'M OPEN!" Mario yelled as Donald threw it, and Mario caught it.

"HEY! THIS ISN'T FOOTBALL!" Crump yelled as the X-Nauts ran to Mario in a formation, but Mario pulled his hand out and ran forward, knocking the two X-Nauts down.

Suddenly, Crump pulled out his arm a second later which caused Mario to slam into it and knocked him out. "I believe that Crystal Star belongs to me." Crump said as he took it, but Mario wrestled with it. "Oh, you wanna wrestle?" Crump asked as he jumped and elbowed Mario in the chest, making Mario cough out blood, which then caused him to throw the Crystal Star behind him.

"ONE! TWO! THREE! FOUR! FIVE! SIX! SEVEN! EIGHT! NINE! TEN!" An X-Naut yelled wearing a referee outfit. "WE HAVE A CHAMPION!" The X-Naut yelled, holding Crump's arm up.

"Guys? Shouldn't we be going?" An X-Naut asked. "Oh right." Crump said as they ran to the X-Naut holding the Crystal Star.

"You know, as punishment for insulting my awesome trap, I got a prize for you. Know what it is? YOUR DEATH! THIS IS A REMOTE TIME BOMB DETONATOR!" He yelled. "THIS TREE WILL BE YOUR GRAVES!" He yelled as he put the Crystal Star away. "And with that, POW! I'm gone!" He exclaimed as he pushed the button.

No Time to Think! (Kingdom Hearts)

"Did he just say remote time bomb detonator?" Koops asked. "No time, let's go!" Sora exclaimed. "ALL PUNIS! LET'S GET THE HELL OUT OF HERE!" Punio yelled as they all ran to the Warp Pipe.

As soon as they came up the warp pipe, they were greeted by two X-Nauts. "You're not going anywhere!" An X-Naut said as he blew a black whistle as only ONE Shadow arrived while another X-Naut blew a white whistle, as one Dusk appeared. "YOU'RE GOING DOWN!" The X-Naut yelled.

Sora took out his Ultima and then beat up the X-Nauts and the Shadow and Dusk with one simple Eruption, then he pushed a button near the door as it opened up. "Can't we just talk about this?" An X-Naut asked as everyone else followed Sora.

"Come on, we're almost there!" Sora said as they kept running and jumping in warp pipes, until they came across the one room with a tree platform.

"Do we need the Puni orb for this?" Sora asked. "WE CAN DO IT WITHOUT IT!" Punio yelled as they went single file as Flurrie blew wind at them, causing them to fall. "CANNONBAAAAAAAAAAALL!" Puniper yelled and then they came up as bubbles as Flurrie's wind carried them over.

"I BELIEVE I CAN-" The bubble popped before Petuni could finish. "Sure...ruin the moment." She muttered as the other Punis landed next to her. "NO TIME, LET'S GO!" Donald yelled as Sora pushed the button on the panel near the door as the door opened and they ran in.

"You shall go NO further!" The Elder exclaimed as she was in front of the door. "Get out of my way, grandma. I got places to be, so MOVE IT, Old lady!" Crump told her.

"EXCUUUUUUUSE ME?!" The Elder yelled as she grew big, while in the same time, Crump shrunk a little.

"I'll have you know that it is RUDE to call me an old lady!" The Elder said, causing Crump to shrink some more. "C-can we talk about this?" Crump asked.

"NO! Why you should have RESPECT to old people like me! How would you like it if someone called you an old man?" The Elder asked as Crump shrunk down to her level. "When I was your age, we RESPECTED our elders. Now look at this generation, there is NO respect at all! I ought to slap some sense into you!" She continued to scold as Crump shrunk some more...which caused the Elder to look down at him.

But suddenly, he grew back to his normal size. "Look lady, I just want out." "Not after what you called me! It's time to show you the proper respect!" The Elder said.

Suddenly, a loud cracking sound was heard. "OW! Of all the times for my back to go out..." She muttered. "Sweet!"

"NOT SO FAST!" Sora yelled as Crump turned around. "Crud...fine, I guess I'll have to deactivate this time bomb." He said as he pushed the button again.

"You know what you are? Nothing but trouble, I guess it's time to use my secret weapon." Crump said as he pushed another button, as a machine landed behind them while Crump ran towards it.

"THIS...is Magnus Von Grapple, and it will DESTROY you." Crump said as he got in Magnus Von Grapple.

"We can take that tin can on!" Sora said. "Judging by how many of you are, I think I should make this fight fairer." Crump said as he pulled out a dark purple whistle and blew on it.

Suddenly, a certain huge knight Heartless landed in front of them. "Oh no." Sora said as Donald and Goofy pulled out their weapons. "Say HELLO to Guard Armor!" Crump said.

"You guys take on Crump, we'll take care of the Heartless." Sora said as Mario nodded. "Right." Mario said as he took out his Hammer.

"Let's get ready TO RUMBLE!" Crump yelled.

Shrouding Dark Cloud (Kingdom Hearts)

Sora ran over to Guard Armor and slashed him, then Guard Armor grabbed him and threw him to Goofy, but Sora Aerial Recovered and used Strike Raid while Donald used Firaga on Guard Armor.

"You're probably crying at the sight of this amazing robot. Sorry, this thing ain't packed with tissues." Crump said as Mario jumped up and hammered him while Flurrie body slammed into Magnus Von Grapple.

Goofy threw his shield at Guard Armor, but Guard Armor jumped up and landed behind Goofy and kicked him away while Sora used Blizzaga Pursuit on Guard Armor while Donald used Curaga on Goofy.

Koops spun in his shell and slammed into Magnus Von Grapple. "Alright...MAGNUS VON PUNISH!" Crump yelled as he walked over to Mario and raised the leg up, but Mario backflipped as soon as Magnus Von Grapple slammed its foot down. "Did I get him?" Crump asked but Mario jumped up and hammered it. "Take that as a no." He muttered.

Guard Armor snapped its fingers and split its main body parts. "I got the arms!" Sora exclaimed as he used Thundaga on them while Donald and Goofy attacked the feet.

Magnus Von Grapple fired its arms at Mario and Koops, but they quickly dodged them as the arms got in front of Magnus Von Grapple. "Hey..." Mario said as he ran forward and jumped on the two arms and then jumped on Magnus Von Grapple and jumped again as it turned into a ground pound, cracking the glass. "HEY! I JUST WASHED THAT!" Crump yelled.

Guard Armor's arms and legs reattached as Guard Armor kicked Sora up in the air and then punched him to the ground. Sora got up, wiping blood from his mouth and glared at it. "TAKE THIS!" He yelled as he used Sonic Blade.

Goombella ran forward and headbonked Magnus Von Grapple, but Magnus Von Grapple drop kicked Goombella away. "Is that the best you could do, pink Goomba?" Crump asked but Mario jumped up and kicked Magnus Von Grapple's chest as Koops slammed into the feet again.

"THUNDER!" Donald yelled while Goofy threw his shield at Guard Armor, but Guard Armor grabbed the shield while getting hit by the Thundaga and threw it back at Goofy, which caused Goofy to slam into a wall. "Goofy!" Donald exclaimed as he used Curaga on him while Sora used Triple Firaga on Guard Armor.

Flurrie body slammed into Magnus Von Grapple again while Mario jumped up and ground pounded it again. "Gah...can't hold on much longer..." Crump said while Magnus Von Grapple attempted to stomp on Koops but he quickly dodged the attack.

"I'll finish it off." Sora said as he closed his eyes. "GIVE ME STRENGTH!" He yelled as he transformed into his Final Form...WITH the Fenrir and Metal Chocobo Keyblades as Guard Armor sweatdropped at this. "TAKE THIS!" Sora yelled as he used Ars Arcanum, followed by Sonic Blade and then finishing off the insane combo with a Zantetsuken IN mid-air!

Mario and Koops both looked at each other and nodded as Koops spun in his shell, charging up as Mario picked him up and launched Koops, as Koops went RIGHT through Magnus Von Grapple.

Guard Armor's arm fell, then his other...and then Guard Armor just fell to the ground as a heart came out of the remains of Guard Armor and went away while Guard Armor faded away.

"No...NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!" Crump yelled as Magnus Von Grapple exploded.

Theme of the Punies

"No...how could we lose Magnus Von Grapple?" Crump asked as he was on the ground. "You got cocky." Sora said as his clothes changed back to normal.

Crump glared at them as he got up. "This isn't over." He said as he ran off.

"LORD CRUMP SUMMONS US!" An X-Naut yelled as tons of X-Nauts ran off. "WAIT UP!" "GET AWAY!" They all yelled.

"HEY! YOU FORGOT SOMETHING!" Punio taunted as he picked up the Crystal Star.

"Well, at least we can live in peace now." The Elder said as everyone nodded.

"Hey Sora, this is for you." Punio said as he gave it to Sora. "Thanks." He said as everyone smiled at this.

End of Chapter! (Paper Mario: The Thousand Year Door)

Magnus Von Grapple and Guard Armor were defeated by Sora and the gang and the Punis were now in peace.

But everyone had this one question that was bugging them. Where did they get those whistles that summons Heartless and Nobodies? And who made them?

On the bright side, the Punis are singing songs of harmony as they are now in total peace as Sora and Mario's adventure continues!
