(Mario, Koops, Flurrie, and Ms. Mowz made it back to minor league room)
MARIO:
Ms. Jolene, we're back!
JOLENE:
Good deal, Mr. Gonzales. Just log on to this terminal here, okay?
(Mario walks up to the terminal which resembles a giant Game Boy Advance and presses the A button)
GBA TERMINAL:
Hello, fighter. What is your command?
JOLENE:
The Great Gonzales is ready to fight!
(The terminal shows Grubba)
GRUBBA:
Well, howdy there, Gonzales! Ready for your first fight, huh? 'Cause you will be fighting the Goomba Bros.! Oh, don't you worry, they'll be a piece of cake! Also, we need the crowd fired up, so I want you to appeal to the crowd at least once. If you have any questions, just feel free to ask Ms. Jolene. I'll see you on the ring!
(The terminal shuts off)
JOLENE:
Alright, so you'll be fighting the Goomba Bros., and you must follow Mr. Grubba's conditions, no matter what. So whenever your opponents lose, you'll go up a rank. Whenever you reach rank 10, you'll be transferred to the major league. When you defeat the champ, you'll win that belt! Sounds fair, right?
MARIO:
Sounds more like a deal to me!
(The guard entered the room)
GUARD:
Mr. Gonzales, it's time for your first fight! Follow me.
JOLENE:
Okay, security's here to escort y'all to the ring! Choose one of your allies and try not to get completely destroyed out there.
MARIO:
Well…
(His partners were staring at him)
MARIO:
Ms. Mowz, you're up!
MS. MOWZ:
No messages.[English]
(Mario put Koops and Flurrie in his partner band and he and Ms. Mowz followed the security guard to the ring)
GRUBBA:
What is up, my people! We are live at the Glitz Pit, and I'm here with the second lowest ranked fighters, the Goomba Bros. who are waiting anxiously for the new fighter, and speaking of new fighter, we got ourselves a rookie, meet the Great Gonzales!
GOOMBA:
Ha! Who is this Gonzales rookie? A cocky fighter, that's who!
(Mario and Ms. Mowz enter the ring)
GRUBBA:
Hot diggety-dog, there he is!
(The crowds were cheering so loud at the sight of Mario as he and Ms. Mowz walk up to Mr. Grubba)
GRUBBA:
Don't you hear the sound of cheering fans, Gonzales? They love you, man!
MARIO:
Eh, they already have.
GRUBBA:
Okay, enough chit-chat, I need you to listen to me for a sec, okay?
(Mario nods his head in agreement)
GRUBBA:
First of all…
GOOMBA:
Have a bonk, punk!
MARIO:
Whoa!
(The battle immediately begins in the style of Paper Mario, where the Goomba headbonks Mario, but he dodged it, leaving him undamaged)
GOOMBA:
Aw, quit crying, will ya! That was just a welcome gift for the rookie! Where's our thank you!?
MARIO:
Ms. Mowz, you go first, and why don't you appeal or something. I didn't know we had to appeal.
(Ms. Mowz did an appeal by doing a somersault and blowing a kiss which made the fans cheer. Mario finished off the fight by Multibouncing on all five Goombas. Mario had won fifteen star points)
GRUBBA:
Well, it looks like the Great Gonzales has won! How was it, man?
MARIO:
That battle was savage!
GRUBBA:
It sure was, let's give it up for him!
(The fans started chanting out Mario's actual name instead of "Gonzales". Back in the minor league room)
GRUBBA:
Holy cow, you did great out there, and you followed my conditions like a good boy!
JOLENE:
Here's you fight money. You get paid every time you win a fight. When you win later fights, the amount of money increases, so here you go.
(She hands Mario three dollars)
JOLENE:
Have a nice day.
(She leaves the room)
? ? ?:
Psst, over here. My name's King K!
MARIO:
King… K?
(A yellow shelled Koopa walks up to Mario and the gang)
KING K:
That's right, Double G-Dawg! It is I, King K! And you must be the Koops…
KOOPS:
Inator. But my real name's Koops.
KING K:
Okay, okay! And you're the Cloud Beast, and Ms. Mowz!
MARIO:
These are my partners, heh heh.
KING K:
Okay, okay! I want you to meet the gang! Here we have Master Crash.
MASTER CRASH:
'Sup BOMB!
KING K:
He has speech issues, and this green bandit is Bandy Andy.
BANDY ANDY:
Hi. Did you know that if you sleep in the room's bed, your HP and FP will recover! But, it's not really that comfortable, so your Star Power will not recover, so keep it in mind, okay?
KING K:
He also likes rumors, and this rockman is Cleftor.
CLEFTOR:
Cleftor no like mustache.
KING K:
And also, we're actually gonna fight each other next battle!
(Mario turned on the terminal)
GRUBBA:
Ready for your next fight already? Well, you're next battle's gonna be against the KP Koopas! Now listen: I don't want you to use your FP in this battle, got it?
MARIO:
Yessir!
KING K:
That's me and my army!
(Mario sent Koops and Flurrie into his partner band again just as the guards picked up Mario, Ms. Mowz, and King K)
SECURITY:
Gonzales and King K, time for your battle against each other! Come with me!
(At the ring, Mario and Ms. Mowz went up stage to get ready to battle King K, another KP Koopa, and a KP Paratroopa)
MARIO:
Let's-a go!
KING K:
You're going down, dawg!
(The Paper Mario style battle began as Mario simply used a Fright Mask to scare away the Koopas and earn him a star point. Back in the minor league room, Ms. Jolene gave Mario four dollars and left the room)
KING K:
G Dawg, good game!
KOOPS:
I'm really glad you two aren't rivals, even after that battle.
KING K:
Me too, Koops! You're actually a really cool Koopa, to be honest!
(Mario turned on the terminal again)
GRUBBA:
You're next battle's gonna be the Pokey Triplets, and I don't want you to swap partners during your battle, got it?
(Mario nodded his head and put Koops and Flurrie in his partner band. Pretty soon, the security came out and escorted Mario and Ms. Mowz to the ring. Once the battle started, Mario used another Fright Mask to scare away the Pokeys, earning him another star point. Back in the room, Ms. Jolene gave him another four dollars, and left again)
KING K:
Dude, you're so savage for using those Bowser masks! Why do you use those anyway?
MARIO:
Actually, I'm on a mission to collect the seven Chaos Emeralds, and I already got two of them!
(Mario shows King K the green and blue Chaos Emeralds which made him gasp)
KING K:
Oh my gosh, it looks just like that diamond on Rawk Hawk's belt!
MARIO:
I know, and that's why I wanna reach up to the champ as fast as possible!
KOOPS:
Just like the warp zones from the original Super Mario Bros.!
FLURRIE:
And you're super fast.
MARIO:
Well thanks, Flurrie. Now let me use that terminal!
(Just as Mario was gonna turn on the terminal, Ms. Jolene threw Bandy Andy in the room)
JOLENE:
How many time do I have to tell you: I don't feel the same way you do! I will ban you if you keep this up!
(She slammed the door)
KING K:
Gee whiz, man, she'll never go out with you.
BANDY ANDY:
Aw, shut up! I'm out of here!
(Bandy Andy left the room, and Mario finally turned on the terminal)
GRUBBA:
Your next battle's gonna be against the Dead Bones, and I don't wanna see you use your hammer, understand?
(Mario slyly nodded his head as the terminal went off. Mario and Ms. Mowz went up the ring and Mario multibounced the Dull Bones, giving him nine star points. Ms. Jolene gave him five dollars and left the room)
KING K:
Keep 'em coming, dawg! I'm gonna support you, because this Chaos Emerald thing is your mission.
MARIO:
Thank you, King K.
(Mario went up to the terminal)
GRUBBA:
You're gonna be fighting Spike Storm, and there will be no Special Moves!
(Mario and Ms. Mowz went up the ring and Mario used Fright Mask to scare away a Lakitu and two Spinies, giving him a star point. Back in the room, Ms. Jolene gave him five dollars and left)
MARIO:
Man, this belt will be mine!
(Grubba showed up at the door)
GRUBBA:
The Glitz Pit is now closing! I repeat: the Glitz Pit is closing right now! Get some rest for tomorrow!
(Grubba closed the door)
KING K:
Well, you heard the man! Let's get some rest.
MARIO:
Okay, buddy. Well, paisanos, tomorrow's gonna be a long, busy, and fighting day!
(Mario, Koops, Flurrie, and Ms. Mowz tucked themselves in their ordinary beds where their health won't heal. Later that night, Mario woke up to some sound outside. He decided to investigate it himself without waking any of his partners up. He went outside and saw a bouncing Yoshi egg)
HOGGLE:
Get back here, you bad egg!
MARIO:
gasps* Oh my gosh, is that a Yoshi egg?
HOGGLE:
Yes, it is, and I was gonna cook it until it bounced away!
MARIO:
Sir, let me assure you, we don't cook baby Yoshies! Now watch and learn!
(Mario sat on his knees and called out for the baby Yoshi in a very sweet and compassionate voice)
MARIO:
Come here, little Yoshi, I'm not gonna hurt you.
(The egg bounced on Mario's hands)
HOGGLE:
How did you…?
(Hoggle stopped himself and saw Mario hugging the egg and kissing it)
MARIO:
You gotta be sweet to that egg. It's okay, Eggy, let's-a take you somewhere safe.
(Mario walked inside the Glitz Pit while holding the Yoshi egg. He went back to the minor league room and went back in his bed and slept with the egg right next to him)
