Wario, Mario, Toad, and a re-joined Yoshi all arived at the mysterious Star Hill. They explored its strange landscape and saw many wish stars that had been granted lying on the ground. Unfortunately, there was no sign of the Koopa Kids.
"This stinks," Wario complained, "We come all the way here, and those Koopa Brats aren't even around to beat up!"
"They'll be here," Mario promised.
"Yoshi and I will check over there," Toad said. He and the dinosaur walked over a hill and out of sight.
"Geez, why do you hang out with them?" Wario asked Mario rudely.
Mario gave him a nasty look. "Because they're my friends."
"Hmph...Well, you losers have to stick together, I suppose," Wario said.
"Listen, you jerk, I won't stand here and let you bad mouth--"Mario started. But he was interupted by a menacing laugh!
"WOO HOO HEE HA HA HO HO! Look who we have here!" It was Ludwig, riding atop the machine.
"Don't tell me you actually came to get your smelly socks back?" Roy laughed at Wario as he rode the side of the machine.
"They're MINE! Nobody steals from the great Wario!" Wario defended.
"We'll do whatever we want," Iggy said.
"And soon, YOU'LL do whatever we want, too!" Lemmy laughed.
"Get 'em! Crush 'em! Make them no more!" Morton yelled pointing at Mario and Wario.
At once, dozens of Koopa Troopas, Goombas, Spikes, and Spinies came from behind the machine and ran toward the pair.
"Le' me at 'em!" Wario called running toward the crowd of enemies.
"Wait!" Mario called, but it was too late. Wario had rushed head first into the fray. He plowed through a barrage of Koopa Troopas, sending their multi-colored shells in all sorts of directions. The Spikes, however, were prepared for the charge, and took several spiked balls from their mouths and held them in front of themselves as Wario ran their way.
"YEOW!!" Wario yelp. He had run into the spiked balls and bounced back in pain. Imediately, the Goomba were on him. While he over powered a few, there were just too many. They all dog piled on top of Wario and held him down.
"Idiot!" Mario mumbled to himself jumping too Wario's aid. He punched, pulled, and stomped as many Goombas as he could before the Spinies came his way. It was enough, and Wario stood up, a bit dizzy from the attack.
But the two were surrounded by a multitude of enemies. "I can take these weaklings!" Wario bragged, rolling up his sleeve.
"No! Don't you see? These guys are a distraction! The Koopa Kids are readying the machine as we speak!" Mario tried to reason.
But as he talked, the enemies advanced on Mario and Wario, and the tow were forced to fight again
At the machine, Larry, Iggy, Roy, Morton, Ludwig, and Lemmy were all pushing buttons, getting things into place, and preparing the machine for its use. Wendy just stood staring blankly at the side.
"Soon,...bum Bum BUM...The Plan will be executed!! Woo hoo hoo ha ha hee he ho ho!" Ludwig laughed triumphantly, tuning a dial up to full power.
