Course 13: Tiny-Huge Island

Star 6: Make Wiggler Squirm

By Flygon trainer

Mario and Luigi are once again standing inside the three-path room, leading to the variants of Tiny-Huge Island.

Luigi: Now, Bro, which one leads to being really huge again?

Luigi looks left to right, and back again at the paintings on either side of the room

Mario: This one!

Mario enthusiastically grabs Luigi’s sleeve, and pulls him towards the portal on their right. As they get closer, the portal seems to get bigger and bigger…

Luigi: I don’t think this is the right-

He does not get to finish his sentence as Mario tosses him in front and jumps into the portal, accidentally landing on Luigi to double-jump on the way in.

Mario: Here we go!

Once inside the portal, Mario lands atop his unfortunate brother, and strikes a pose.

Mario: Bro? You here?

Mario looks around for several seconds, confused, before looking down. Stepping off his brother, he extends a hand.

Luigi: Wow, thanks Bro, I never thought you had a real kind bone in you!

Luigi discovers the opposite, however, when, after placing his hand in Mario’s, Mario uses his Bowser-tossing strength to throw Luigi onto a higher ledge.

Luigi: GAAAAHHHH!

With a loud thud, he lands on the higher ledge, as Mario began to triple-jump onto the much larger Goombas around him.

Luigi: Well, long as I’m up here, I might as well find one of those neat warp pipes…

After a bit of searching, he finds a warp pipe near the pathway leading to the top of the mountain. He hops in it, and comes out the same warp pipe. The difference? Everything is now REALLY tiny.

Luigi: Ah, much-a betta! Now, let’s get Bro up here!

Walking with earth-shaking steps back to where his brother is, he lowers a hand and picsd up his brother just before a Goomba tramples him.

Mario: Weege? What are you doing? I was about to stomp that guy!

Luigi: Suuuuure you were.

After several hours of searching the island without luck, Luigi stands at the top, surveying the island.

Luigi: This is ridiculous, where in the world is that stupid Star?!

Luigi, in anger, stomps the ground. The earth shakes for several moments, before a large chunk of rock falls from under his feet, not enough for him to fall through. The water, however, finding this new gap, immediately plummets through, making it likely that both brothers could go through the hole. Well, once they are both small, that is.

Luigi: Mario, you should hop on down, and I’ll get shrunk so I can head down.

As Mario jumps into the hole, Luigi begins to climb down the hill.

Wiggler: Waaaa! You’ve flooded my house! Wh-why? Look at this mess! What am I going to do now? The ceiling’s ruined, the floor is soaked… what to do, what to do? It makes me so… MAD! Everything’s been going wrong ever since I got this Star... it’s so shiny, but it makes me feel strange…

The Wiggler begins to run around the grating it is standing on, as Mario narrowly avoids its charge.

Mario: Mamamia! Listen, I can explain this, really, it was-

Mario does not get to finish his sentence, however, as the Wiggler runs into him, knocking the wind out of him. He gets up, just in time to jump over the Wiggler, and comes down on its head. It stops, dazed for several seconds, before it can get to its many feet again. Now it is really charging around the arena, and it is about to run over the hapless plumber when-

Luigi: AHHHHHH!!!

-erm… thanks. Luigi fell from the hole above, and was falling rapidly, bringing a direct collision with the Wiggler’s head. It is knocked flat to the ground, and stands up again.

Wiggler: HEY! Knock it off! That’s not fair! First you soak me, then you jump on me, but DOUBLE TEAMING ME?!

The Wiggler turns a blazing fire red, and stream seems to be coming off it.

Luigi: Okay, what’s going on?!

Mario: I’ll tell you later, this guy has a Star, stomp 'em!

They began to dodge the frantically charging Wiggler, making random attempts to jump onto its head. However, Mario misss, bouncing off one of the large sections and slamming face first into the grate.

Mario: Owww…

When Mario raises his face again, he has grate imprints on his face. Luigi, however, is trampled once by the Wiggler, before managing to jump on it. Immediately, its rage seems to be settled.

Wiggler: Okay, fine, I give, uncle! Take the Star! Whew, I feel better now.

Mario: You’re serious? We can have it?

Wiggler: Sure, now I can look at the Stars in the sky at night. They make me feel… peaceful…

As the Star goes from his body to the center of the room, the Wiggler becomes small and yellow, and begins to wander around for several moments before falling through the grate.

Luigi: Okay, I now have an intense fear of caterpillars.

Mario: You aren’t the only one.

With the Wiggler calmed and out of the way, Mario goes forth and grabs the Star, striking a pose with Luigi.

Mario: Let's a go!

Luigi (at same time): Here we go!

They look at each other strangely for several seconds. Finally, Luigi walks over to Mario and hits him in the head with his copy of the script, and makes him read it.

Mario: Owww, my head hurts…

Luigi: *sigh* Forget it….
