Pure Hearts Be True

The Emerge of a Pure Heart

After defeating Dimentio, the team got more pixls to help them with their quest to save Tippi. Finally getting to the fort, they quickly defeated the chameleon and freeing Tippi. Peach and Violet were the best in the fort, tricking Francis into letting them in. When the chameleon was trying to flirt with Peach or Violet, the other looked around for Tippi. Finally, after beating Francis, Tippi was free.

Tippi breathed, "Mario... You guys came to save me."

Mario stated, "Of course."

Violet replied, "You are our friend, after all."

Peach added, "And we leave no friend behind."

Bowser responded, "No matter how annoying you can be."

Tippi was touched her friends (and Bowser)'s words that a Pure Heart actually came out of her, surprising everyone.

She breathed, "The Pure Heart...? But how...?"

Violet questioned, "Tippi had a Pure Heart all this time?"

Peach answered, "Apparently."

Bowser stated, "That's really strange."

Mario replied, "Well, we have to take it in ordinary to save our worlds and hopefully find my baby brother."

With that, Mario took the Pure Heart as Tippi looked out at her friends. She felt so blessed to know them. Thus, she started to change.

In Castle Bleck, Dimentio reported on what happened in the tree where the heroes defeated him. When Dimentio brought up that the heroes were too strong, Bleck countered that the Light Prognosticus was purely false and that the Dark Prognosticus held the answer to defeat the heroes. Count Bleck turned to Nastasia.

He stated, "Oh, Nastasia? I think it is time we set "him"  on these pests."

Nastasia nodded and replied, "Yeah, um, I can take care of that for you, Count."

Count Bleck responded, "Lovely, exclaimed Count Bleck. Return to your posts, my dear minions."

The three minions commented, "As you command, Count! HAIL BLECK!"

With that; O'Chunks, Mimi, and Dimentio left the room - leaving Nastasia and Count Bleck alone. Nastasia barely managed an um but it managed to catch Count Bleck's attention.

Count Bleck asked, "Does something trouble you, Nastasia?"

Nastasia answered, "Yeah, Count... You know there's still time... You can still change your mind."

Count Bleck stubbornly stated, "That is enough, Nastasia. We've already come this far, so we shall forge on! But you needn't stay by Count Bleck's side. You can depart with my blessing."

Nastasia perked up and replied, "Um, no, my count. I won't be doing that. My life is already sworn to you. Yeah, it's belonged to you since the day you saved me... I'll be sticking it out with you until my game ends, 'k?"

Count Bleck responded, "If that pleases you..."

With that, the two of them headed off in two separate directions. Unknown to them, Dimentio was listening in on their conversation. Dimentio smirked evilly as he thought, 'Soon I'll get my revenge on my so called father. And that will finally flush out my sister. She should be coming back soon. I have a score to settle and then I will be able to bring back my dear mother.'

...

"Timpani, why? Why do you avoid me?"

"Ow... OW! Unhand me!"

[THUD]

"Huh? You're crying! Why? Timpani, you must tell me what has happened!"

"It's nothing... Don't worry about it... Just forget it..."

"Oh no... Timpani, is my father behind this?"

"I'm... I'm just an ordinary girl. No matter how much I love you, we must part."

"Timpani... I..."

"This is good-bye, Blumiere. There's no other choice. This is our fate..."

...

"I've been thinking..."

"Of what?"

"Well, remember how I discovered my powers?"

"Yeah, we had a heck of a time freeing my leg after you froze it."

"Still sorry about that. Anyhow, I'm thinking about being a hero."

"Whoa, really?"

"Yeah, I would love to battle alongside of you and Mario one day."

"Maybe you will get your chance."

"Yeah cause I would hate fighting my best friend."

"I feel the same way."

...

After putting the Pure Heart in its Heart Pillar, our heroes got ready to depart for the next world - or chapter as they decided to call it. Mario got the items, Peach got health items, Violet got cooking items, and Bowser - well - did Koopa things. Anyhow, they all met up on top of the Flipside Tower and headed out on their next chapter. After making the discovery that they were going into what was known as The Whoa Zone.

"Whoa," Violet joked.

Mario groaned as Peach face palmed herself. Bowser was the only one that strangely found it funny. Peach looked at her friends (and Bowser), knowing what they had to do.

Peach stated, "We have to get space helmets."

Bowser groaned, "But I'm Bowser! I don't need stupid things like that!"

Mario pointed out, "And when you die without oxygen, then no one will ever remember the great Bowser."

After an argument between Mario and Bowser, the team agreed to get themselves some space helmets. Violet went over to Mario as they were on their search for helmets.

She asked, "M - Mario?"

Mario looked at her and answered, "Yes, Violet?"

Violet stated, "I want to look for Luigi, I'm getting worried about him."

Mario replied, "As am I but I don't want you going off on your own just yet. Once we leave this chapter, you can head out to find Weegie."

Violet responded, "That sounds fair to me."

The red clad plumber smiled, he always considered Violet like a younger sister after she and Luigi had saved him during the mansion incident.

Mario commented, "Just be careful when you head out on your own, Violet Ice."

Violet said, "I will, promise, Super Mario."
