Chapter 1: How it Started / Catch Catastrophe
Once it was a beautiful day in the Mushroom Kingdom, without a cloud in the sky.
Mario: Ah Luigi. Don’t you wish there was more days like this?
Luigi: You said it! This ended up to be a great day. Hey, wanna play catch?
Mario: Sure! Get your glove!
Later…
Luigi: Come on, Mario! That was right to you!
Mario: Couldn’t see. The sun was in my eyes.
???: I WAS NOT!!!
Mario: Angry Sun! Run for it, Luigi!
Mario and Luigi run far and knock into someone.
Luigi: Sorry Mister. Sun’s after us.
???: Huh?
Luigi: He means Angry Sun.
???: Oh, ok. Name’s Yardiovich. CHRIS Yardiovich to be exact.
Luigi: Nice to meet you, Chris.
Chris: Great to see you too! You said the sun’s after ya?
Mario: Yeah. Bowser must be on his way to the castle to start his Koopaish tricks. Hey… I fought a Yaridovich before…
Chris: Yaridovich… Oh! You mean the one Smithy built! No no, Yaridovich is my last name. Now about that sun you were talking about?
Luigi: Well he seems to be gone now. Well Mario, let’s get going! We need to give Koopa what he deserves.
Chris: Wait! Can I come? Got nothing better to do.
Mario: Sure! We could use an extra set of hands.
Chris: Thanks!
Chris joined your party!
Chris: Fiesta!
No, not that kind! Chris can scare some enemies off because of ugly he is…
Chris: HEY!!! I can give you a Siesta the HARD way!!!
… He can also, in battle, use Punch, and Annoy for two FP, AND Tattle for free!
Suddenly Toad comes by.
Toad: Want a lesson on FP before going?
Mario: No thanks.
Toad: Great! You see…

Mario: (sarcastically) Gee, thanks.

Chapter 2: Partners in Time / An Old Enemy
The dynamic trio start walking down the street when all of a sudden something drops from the sky.
Luigi: What in the world is that?
Mario: Why it’s E. Gadd’s old time machine!
Suddenly it opens to reveal…
Baby Mario and Luigi: Wet’s-a go!
Baby Chris: Whoopee!
Chris: Oh dear god, it’s me as a baby! I can tell that birthmark anywhere!
Mario: What, that giant blotch on it’s kneecap?! Sheesh!
Luigi then notices something else in the time machine. Something with yellow eyes…
Luigi: WOAH! MARIO! CHRIS! LOOK OUT! IN THE TIME MACHINE!

Mario: You left your time machine at Yoshi’s Island after your safari in Yoob’s belly.
Flashback…
E. Gadd: I found it! It’s my Sunnycide! All I need to do is get the mutation out of its body! Now to the time hole!
Flashback End…
E. Gadd: Jeepers! Behind you!
They look and E. Gadd runs away feeling guilty.
Mario E. Gadd! E. GADD! Well he’s gone now. Hey, what’s that over there?
Something “over there” jumps on Luigi and it appears to be…
Stuffwell: Hello Mario! Where is… Oops…
He jumps off Luigi.
Stuffwell: Sorry Luigi. I was told there was a Chris here but… Oops…
Stuffwell jumps off Chris.
Stuffwell: I’m so clumbs-
Babies: WAHH!!!
Stuffwell jumps off the Babies.
Stuffwell: … I’m standing on a Random Toad, aren’t I?
All: Yup.
Stuffwell: Ugh, I’m just shrinking and going into Mario’s pocket.
So he does. And… well, let’s just say that we won’t see him anymore because…
Stuffwell: Sheesh! I didn’t know he had so much cheese here! I’m lost! WAHH!
Well now back to the hero’s problem.
Chris: Problem? What problem?!
Bowser then jumps from behind a bush.
Chris: … I hate my life.
Bowser: Mario! I’m back! And I got some friends!
Then two people jump out, revealing…
Luigi: Princess Shroob!
Chris: Jacob!
Jacob: I SAID CALL ME JACOB BOWYER THE III!

Mario: Back up slowly.
They run when suddenly E. Gadd comes from nowhere.
E. Gadd: Boys! A time hole is in the garden! Go check it out!
Mario: Why? What’s wrong?
E. Gadd: I’ve traced some army following three people in there! That just isn’t right in the past!
Chris: Three people… BOWSER, JACOB, AND PRINCESS SHROOB!
Mario: MAMAMIA! Okay, we’ll check it out! Who knows what they’re up to! Babies, stay with E. Gadd, he will take care of you!
Babies: Byebye!
Chris: Now… Lets check it out.
Luigi: Just be glad that we’re farther away from Baby Bowser.
