As Mario and Chris watch over Luigi, a doctor comes in.

Medic: ah! Mario, zere you are.

Mario: something the matter doctor?

Medic: we checked security footage. Luigi and his condition worsened by someone tampering with the medical equipment.

Mario and Chris are nothing short of stupified and angry, Mario most of all. If there is one thing you should never do, it's hurt the younger sibling of an already worried older brother. Because you have now invoked the wrath of that older brother for years to come.

Mario: who did it.

Mario asked, yet his question sounded more like a demand.

Medic: we don't know. Ze person in question hid zeir face with a black hood and mask.

Mario was seething in anger, and Chris could feel it. But that's when Chris gets an idea.

Chris: Mario, Swag and I will search the hospital for clues while you and the others brain storm about who could've done it.

Mario: smart. But where to start, and who to start with?

Medic: is zere anyone you know who hates you enough to do zis?

Mario thinks. There's a couple of people, and that's a couple people too many.

Mario: I know a few.

Mario walks out of the hospital room while Chris calls Swag. As Mario walks to his house, he thinks a little more.

Mario: who would want to hurt Luigi while he's in the hospital. . . . Ugh. If only they'd been stupid to make it obvious. There is no one I know that could hate me so much- Wait. . . I do know someone like-a that!

Mario runs back to his house and sees Tari watching some brain rot Boopkins put on. Tari turns to see Mario.

Tari: heya Mario. Doing better?

Mario: a lot better, because I know what happens and who did it. At least, I think.

Tari: I see.

Mario: wait, do you already know what-a happened?

Tari: yep! Chris called Swag, and Swag had the phone on speaker. So, who do think it was?

Mario: there's-a only one person I know who hates me so much that he would willingly put another's life on the line.

Tari: and he is?

Mario: Enzo.

Mario and Tari walks out of the house and get into Mario's kart. Off they head to Bloopersville. . . .This will certainly be entertaining. Once there, they head into the town of Mario recolors.

Tari: wow, I've never really had the chance to see this place before.

Mario: not surprising. SMG4 wanted us to stay away from them so they wouldn't be chuaght up in any life threatening events. With that request becoming an order once the whole thing with Lawyer Kong went down.

As Mario and Tari walks through the town, they meet up with a very familiar face.

X: well I'll be. Mario, how long has it been?

Mario: oh, hi X! Really has been a while, huh?

X: who's the blue-haired girl here?

Tari: hi, I'm Tari. Nice to meet you X.

X: nice to meet ya too Tari. . . . Formally at least, you look a little different then when I saw you in Zero's castle. Eh, must be a new hair style. Anyway, I'd love to show you guys around.
