Rogueport (Paper Mario: The Thousand Year Door)
"So this is West Rogueport?" Sora asked as they looked around. "Wow, this is actually better than the rest of Rogueport." Goofy said. "No kidding." Goombella said.
"Let's see, Frankly wanted us to look for a shop, but where is it?" Mario asked as they walked around. "Guys? I think that's the shop." Koops said as he pointed to a building that says "Shop" on it.
"How didn't we notice that?" Sora asked as they walked over to it while Koops rolled his eyes. "Maybe if you weren't looking around the place, you would've noticed." Koops muttered as Flurrie giggled at this. "Sometimes you gotta look around before going to your destination." Flurrie said. "Good point." Koops said as they went in.
"Hello! Welcome to the West Side Rogueport shop!" A girl Boo happily smiled as they looked around.
"Dizzy Dial and Dried Shroom, right?" Donald asked. "No, it's the other way around if I recall correctly." Goombella said as Mario picked up the Dried Shroom and the Dizzy Dial.
"Say, just a quick question." The Boo said as they turned to her. "What color is your hair?" She asked.
"Brown." Mario and Sora said. "I'm not sure if feathers count as hair." Donald said. "Blue." Flurrie said. "I'm not sure I have hair." Goofy said. "Yellow." Goombella said. "I got no hair." Koops said as the Boo facepalmed at this.
"That was the wrong question." She muttered. "I MEANT to ask, what is your favorite color?" She asked.
"Yellow." They all replied as the Boo smiled at this. "I guess you're affiliated with Don Pianta." She said as she went over to the door and unlocked it. "And here you go." She said. "Thanks." Sora said as they walked through the door.
"Just up these stairs, huh?" Mario asked as they nodded. "Let's go, I'm sure he's not that scary." Sora said as they walked up the stairs.
Meanwhile...
Laughter and Merriment (Kingdom Hearts II)
"Boss, I just received word about your daughter." A Pianta said as Don Pianta was walking around. "What is it, Vinny?" Don asked right when Sora and the others walked in.
"Wait, hold that thought. Who in the freaking hell are you?" Don asked as they walked in. "Not so scary, huh?" Koops whispered to Sora as Sora just shrugged at this.
"I'm Sora, this is Mario, Donald, Goofy, Goombella, Koops and Flurrie." Sora introduced them.
"Should I throw 'em out, boss?" Vinny whispered to him. "Hang on, Vinny. Let's see what these guys have to say." He whispered back.
"We were just wondering if you could give us tickets to Glitzville." Sora told them.
Don's eye twitched a little. "Did you say...tickets to Glitzville?" He asked as Sora nodded.
"HAHAHAHA!" Don yelled as he laughed hard at this while pounding his fist on the desk. "You gotta be kidding me! That's rich! You come all this way just to ask for some lousy tickets? Oh that's priceless!"
"Should I throw 'em out now boss?" Vinny asked. "How about we make duck stew out of this duck? I'm hungry!" The other Pianta, Tony, said making Donald sweatdrop at this.
"Now now boys, let's take it easy, I'm starting to like these guys if they made me laugh so hard." Don said as he wiped a tear from his eye. "Tell you what, I'll give you tickets if you do me one simple favor."
"What is it?" Mario asked. "It's very simple, Red Hat. You see, my main man, Frankie, fell in love with my daughter, Francesca. And I do not like this. In fact, I want to wreck vengeance on their happy relationship. He needs to learn a lesson that falling in love with my daughter will lead to tragic consequences. I want you guys to find those two love birds and bring 'em to me so I can...deal with 'em. Think you can handle it?" He asked.
"Sure, I guess." Sora said. "Atta' boy!" Don smiled as he gave them a thumbs up. "Now go find them!"
"Boss, about Frankie and Francesca..." Vinny said. "Yes, what is it?" Don asked. "Frankie just told me that he and his girlfriend are eloping, they're waiting for their ship." He said. "WHAT! THEY'RE GOING TO GET MARRIED AND RUN AWAY?! Why I oughta..." Don said as the others slipped out of the room. "Good, I didn't want those guys to see my ugly side of me..." He muttered.
Rogueport
"He doesn't seem that bad." Goofy said. "But he's part of a mafia...the boss of a mafia, I might add." Sora said. "I'm sure this guy is different from the rest. He might actually be a good mafia boss." Goofy smiled. "Mafia bosses are NEVER good, you big palooka!" Donald exclaimed as they walked back to the docks of Rogueport.
"Is that them?" Koops asked as he pointed to them as they entered the docks. "That blue Pianta and yellow Pianta? Yeah, that's probably them." Mario said as they walked over to them.
Kairi (Kingdom Hearts II)
"Oh Francesca, just think. It'll be you and me." Frankie said. "I just hope dad is okay with this." Francesca sighed. "Oh don't worry, I'm sure he's fine with it."
"Yeah, about that..." Donald said as the duo turned to the others. "Oh? And who are you?" Francesca asked.
"Sora, Donald, Goofy, Goombella, Koops and Goofy. My name's Mario." Mario told them. "Okay, so why are you guys here?" Frankie asked.
"Well, we were going to get tickets for Glitzville but we had to go through Don Pianta first, and in order to get the tickets...we had to come get you." Sora told him.
"OH COME ON! We were so CLOSE!" Francesca yelled as Frankie sighed at this. "You see guys, we're madly in love and we want to get out of here. So just pretend you never saw us, got it?" Francesca asked. "Um...okay." Sora said. "Thanks." She smiled as the others walked away.
"Well now what are we going to do?" Donald asked. "We just have to tell him the truth." Sora said. "Actually...I have a better idea...and this is coming from the guy who doesn't like lying." Mario said.
Laughter and Merriment
"Boss, what are we going to do? It's not like we can stop Frankie." Vinny said. "I know, it's hard to chase after your own comrade but what choice do I have? Frankie has got to learn a lesson." Don sighed and then the door opened.
"Oh! Did you find those two lovebirds?" Don asked as they walked in.
"Nope, they're gone. We couldn't find them." Mario said. "Ah great...just when I thought I'd teach 'em a thing or two. Alright, let me find those ticke-...wait a minute." Don said as he looked at them all suspiciously.
"You're lying to me." He said. "What are you talking about?" Mario asked. "You said you didn't find 'em but your eyes say something else. Do you know who I am?! I'm Don Pianta, also known as the Don of Untimely Death!" He exclaimed as all of them but Vinny and Tony sweatdropped at this.
"Vinny, Tony...hold 'em down. I'M ABOUT TO GO ALL DONKEY KONG ON ALL OF 'EM!" He yelled.
"HOLD IT!" yelled a voice as Don Pianta looked away from them to see Frankie and Francesca in front of the door. "Whoa, didn't see that coming." Vinny said. "Oh shut up, Vinny." Tony muttered.
The Other Promise (Kingdom Hearts II Final Mix)
"Boss, don't hurt 'em. They just didn't want us to be torn apart from you." Frankie said. "They lied so we can be together." He said.
"WELL YOU KNOW HOW THAT MAKES ME FEEL?! YOU WERE LIKE A BROTHER TO ME AND THIS IS HOW YOU REPAY ME?!" Don yelled.
"Dad! Don't yell at him! I love him very much and he doesn't mean any harm to me!" Francesca told him.
"If you want to harm anyone, harm me! I can take it like a man!" Frankie exclaimed.
"Dad! Just listen to me! We are madly in love and we want you to be happy."
"I am happy that you are in love, but in love with my NUMBER ONE GUY?! ARE YOU OUT OF YOUR MIND?!" Don yelled.
"DAD!" Francesca yelled. "BOSS! Frankie yelled. "Dad!" "Boss!" "Dad!" "Boss!" They kept saying while walking to him as he was backing up.
"ALL OF YOU SHUT UP!" Don yelled as he looked at Frankie. "Frankie, I'm happy for you...just...take care of my daughter." He said and then looked at Francesca. "Francesca...just...take care of Frankie will you? You don't need your old man anymore..." He said sadly as he turned around.
"Boss..." "Dad..." "Just go...get out of my sight." He said sadly as the two nodded.
"I'm happy for you two." Vinny said. "Yeah, we totally support this." Tony said as the two smiled and ran off. "Thanks you guys." Frankie said as they ran off.
Don turned around to look at Sora and the others. "What are you guys still doing here?" He asked. "Um...the tickets?" Sora reminded him.
"Oh! Of course." Don said as he reached in his desk and pulled out Blimp Tickets. "Here you guys go." Don said as he gave them all tickets. "Now get out my sight...i'm not in the best mood right now." He said as they nodded and ran off.
"You okay, boss?" Vinny asked. "Yeah...i'm...fine." He said, wiping a tear from his eye. "Just fine." He said.
Rogueport
"Okay, that was kinda weird what we saw." Mario said. "Not as weird as those battles with the Punis." Sora said. "True." Mario nodded in agreement.
"Wow...now THAT is a fancy train." Koops said as Sora turned to the right. "Hey, does this head to Glitzville?" "Yes, it does." The Cheep Cheep said as they all smiled and gave him their tickets.
"Alright, now go in that blimp and enjoy the ride!" He said as they nodded as they jumped in the warp pipe and they jumped out the other side as they looked at the blimp in front of them.
"Ready?" Sora asked. "Ready." Donald said as they nodded and they walked in the blimp as the blimp took off straight for Glitzville.
