Paper Mario Color Splash Recut- Act 2 (SPOILERS FOR CHAPTERS 5-6 OF REAL GAME)

EMERALD CIRCUS
STORY
+Mario and co. arrive at the entrance to the Emerald Circus...
HUEY: Ooh! A giant tent in the middle of the forest! This must be the Emerald Circus, right?
EDWIN: And the hideout of the Musketeers. It’s been so long since I’ve trained here...

+Due to the change from Koopaling to Musketeer, several lines of dialogue are changed around...
BOOSKETEER: Only 50 lucky Musketeers could purchase tickets for this show, and they’ve all sold!
BOOSKETEER: I heard Lord Khairacles is preparing a special surprise for this performance. I wonder what it is.
QUINCADA: Thiz izzzz the performerz’ entrance. You don’t zzzzzzeem like one of ours. Our eyezzz never lie.
MONKHAIRA: These lizards aren’t trained, so we can’t feature them in our act yet. They keep trying to eat people’s stuff. Like our super-old bananas!

+In the battle, Mario and co. find and massage Verda of Blue Rescue Squad.
VERDA: Aw, you’re sweet for rescuing me, Mario. I went to pet a Yoshi the Musketeers captured, but it strangely chewed me up and spit me out.
Verda salutes.
VERDA: Verda, leader of Blue Rescue Squad, at your service. I wish I could stay and talk, but I need to report to the Squad Captain, right away!
Verda leaves.
 
PORT PRISMA CHAPTER 6- IV
STORY
+Upon entering the HQ after finding all 23 other active members...
LEBLAANC: Attention, Rescue Squad! The time has come to take our island back- not just from the Musketeers, but the Koopalings, too! Thanks to Captain Verda’s bravery, we now know where the Musketeers have been hiding! Head for Emerald Circus in the forest, immediately!
All the Rescue Squad members, Gulliv T, and Kidd salute.
RESCUE SQUAD: Understood! Over and out!
All the Rescue Squad members head out. This time, Leblaanc jumps down, too.
KIDD: Wait- are you going with them, too?
LEBLAANC: I have to, Kiddwella. I watched you lose yourself to sadness when Billy fell into his long sleep. I eventually lost my patience with you. But the truth is...you should’ve been angrier with ME.
KIDD: ...well, that’s all in the past, Leblaanc. And if you didn’t take us to the woods that day, me or my dad would’ve. I’m done playing the blame game.
LEBLAANC: It’s good to see you back to your lively self. ...But that’s not what I mean. Y-you see...
Kidd gives Leblaanc a kiss on the mouth.
Leblaanc becomes very red, but still looks reserved. However...
LEBLAANC: (excited) ..........AWWWWWW YEAH, BABY! You’re still DYNAMITE, KIDD! I MISS the way you used to make me feel! HOO HOO! HOO HOO! HOO HOO! MUSKETEERS, here I COME!
Leblaanc dashes off really fast.

+As promised, Merluvlee has more to speak of her tale...
PART 3
“After a long voyage, I arrived in Pastelora. It was horrific what Shroomsday had done- shadowy Monty Moles below, monsters on the surface, a sickness all around. And in the middle of it all, the Monty Mole king, alongside a Bomb Boo and a Swampire, fighting Shroomsday. Wasting no time, I flew into the fray.”
“The four of us battled and subdued Shroomsday for weeks. Eventually, I noticed something unusual- Shroomsday was wearing five extra crowns he hadn’t been when he left. So, to weaken the beast, I took them, as well as his Golden Crown, away from him.”
“However, their power was immense, especially the gold. It was then, I realized I had to focus all my mystic energies into containing them. I went through with it, changing shape into a spatial comet. Though it weakened the beast, however, the Monty Mole king was still forced to drag that monster into Pastelora’s depths...”
2 GOLD SYRUPS, 1 BLUE SYRUP, 1 RED SYRUP

MERLUVLEE: And that is all for now. Once you help the Rescue Squad with their greatest mission, I will tell you more of the story.
 
FORTUNE ISLAND (cutscene)
+Aace, Pitholl and Cucleer are in the room where the Violet Grand Paint Star was. Aace is overseeing the Blue Paratroopas bringing the coffin towards him.
AACE: A little to the right, sons.
BLUE PARATROOPA: Here?
AACE: A little more. More. More. And...AT PEACE!
The Blue Paratroopas lower the coffin.
AACE: Finally! After all these years, I get to owe up to my huge mistake.
Aace looks antsy.
AACE: ...do I dare open this coffin and risk lookin’ into mighty huge eyes of anger?
PITHOLL: Yes.
CUCLEER: You should.
PITHOLL: Do it. Swag.
AACE: ...very well. Besides, when we revive her, maybe she’ll have cooled down.
Aace opens the coffin. ...and nothing happens.
AACE: Ehhhhhoh. She must be in worse shape than I ‘magined. But it can’t be all bad EUGHGHHH!
Aace backs away from the coffin, horrified.
AACE: Oh. Oh dear. The Grand Paint Stars definitely won’t be enough to fix her Majesty! Carry her off.
The Paratroopas carry the coffin away.
Aace calms down.
AACE: ...at least I know fo’ sure my suspicions were correct. I need to find-!
Shroomsday enters through a spatial hole, with O’Chunks holding onto him.
AACE: Shroomsday, son! You have a l’il somethin’ on your arm.
O’Chunks is holding onto Shroomsday’s arm.
O’CHUNKS: I’m on fire today, laddies- lot’o’people are listenin’ teh me advice! But ah can still take ye all on if ah want teh!
AACE: Keepin’ him occupied?
SHROOMSDAY: We were forced to create an emergency escape. The Koopalings we missed unloaded a powerful weapon from up above.
AACE: I’m sure it couldn’t have been tha’ powerful, son-
SHROOMSDAY: Merely touching this weapon inflicted upon us GREAT AGONY.
Aace expresses shock.
AACE: No- they wouldn’t have! How’d they learn about-?!
SHROOMSDAY: One of them researched the island’s paint, and learned about mixing all six colors together. Thankfully, we convinced the young Koopa prince to confiscate all the black paint, before any real damage.
AACE: ...well, it could’ve been worse, I s’pose. As long as we deal wit’ this, we’re “golden”. We jus’ need one other missing ingredient. Then, we need to return to Port Prisma an’ get to that fount-
SHROOMSDAY: What missing ingredient?
Aace whispers into Shroomsday’s horn. Shroomsday looks flabbergasted.
SHROOMSDAY: Are you SURE you heard them correctly?! We did not even factor that into-!
AACE: I’m as sur’prised as you, son. But it jus’ makes too much sense. And with that Mario feller aroun’, we might not even get that chance.
Shroomsday thinks.
SHROOMSDAY: Leave the plumber to us, as well as any other “circumstances”...

Battle 3- Orange

STORY
+All 23 available members of the Rescue Squad and Gulliv T are in the line-up, with Leblaanc overseeing the line. To allow the game to load all 23 normal Rescue Squad members without slowdown, they’re technically combined into 7 models- 1 talking member per Squad, Leblaanc, and everyone else.
+Regarding what lines are retained/changed...
MICHELLE: I’m first in line, which means I’ll be first to head inside. It’s just- grand to be second to Cosso.
JONNY: This is just between you and me, but Leblaanc wants Orion to come back after this mission.
STENCY: Rescue ohh, rescue ohhh! Rescue, beep beep, rescue, Ohh rescue, rescue hey!
STABYL T: Mario, sir, I’m a huge fan like Louis! Thanks for taking the time to talk to a normal Toad like me with no unique traits or discernible characteristics!
PEPPA T: I haven’t seen a circus since I was a boy!

+Upon talking to Cosso...
Cosso is about to speak. However, he stops mid-way.
COSSO: ...This time, I feel it more appropriate for the Squad Captain to give the order.
KIDD: Good thought, Cosso. It’s rare Le- the Squad Captain comes with us.
LEBLAANC: I would be honored, Cosso and Kiddwella. Alright then...ROLL CALL!
All 23 main Rescue Squad members, Kidd, and Gulliv T. salute.
SUGA T: 25!
BcgDNXO.jpg

LEBLAANC: 26 of us have gathered! If Billy were here, he’d be so proud! All we need now is to wait for their show to open...
+Upon talking to the Boosketeer at the ticket booth...
BOOSKETEER: Greetings, good sir! I welcome you to the Emerald Circus! Our show will start as soon as the house fills up. We only perform in front of sellout crowds! ...except for an anonymous performer we lost recently, but that’s neither here nor there.
After checking the line...
BOOSKETEER: What luck! We have our audience! It’s going to be a full house! Thank you all for waiting! Please go in and take your seats. We’ve been expecting you...
The curtain opens.
All the Rescue Squad members and Gulliv T hurry into the tent, trampling over Leblaanc in the process.
Kidd gives Leblaanc a quick kiss.
LEBLAANC: YEAAAAAAAH!
Leblaanc hurries in.
 
+When Mario and co. enter, the entire Rescue Squad are seated on the left- tied up, while Boosketeers are on the right.
ARANTULA: Enjoy the show, Rescue Squads. It’ll be the last one you ever see...*nomnomnom*
The Arantula vanishes.
KIDD: Leblaanc!
LEBLAANC: Sorry, Kidwella. It was a trap. It’s like they knew we were coming...
KIDD: Leave it to us, Leblaanc. This time, I’ll rescue YOU! Hehehehe!
HUEY: Exactly! So... this is your group’s circus, Edwin?
EDWIN: Every seat’s full, and the audience is all giddy with anticipation...
HUEY: I’ve never actually been to a circus before, Edwin. So I’m super excited! *sniffsniff* Huh...I swear I smell black paint, though. Plus a hint of fresh banana...
KIDD: Uh, Huey?
HUEY: Oh, and the tied-up Squadees. Sorry, Kidd.
Perry appears on stage.
PERRY: Ladies and gentlemen, Rescue Squad and Musketeers, plumbers of all ages! You are moments away from experiencing the Emerald Circus in all its glory! (Thank Grambi!) Without further ado, allow me to introduce our main act. It’s the guy everyone’s talking about...Khairacles’ Show of Stunning Strength!
A shadow appears over Perry.
PERRY: (It had to be one of those days...)
Khairacles lands on Perry. The big ape then showboats to the crowd, leading to a lot of applause from the Boosketeers.
KHAIRACLES [ i.imgur.com/lqiK4s2.png ]: The Great Khairacles thanks you. Continue to clap in order to encourage Khairacles. Keep yellow objects away from the stage, or the Great Khairacles will eat it. Now...the things you are about to see may shock you. They might astound you. But they will definitely impress. THE WEIGHT.
A huge Thwomp drops on top of Khairacles, apparently crushing him.
EVERYONE: ?
KIDD: Huh...that was remarkably easy.
EDWIN: Don’t speak too soon...
Suddenly, the Thwomp starts shaking.
Immediately, Khairacles lifts the Thwomp in one hand, while juggling Perry in the other.
KHAIRACLES: HUKK HUKK HUKK! No Thwomp on earth can keep the Great Khairacles down for long. The Great Khairacles can carry anything of any weight.
PERRY: (Easy for you to say, you big ape!)
The crowd applauds.
KHAIRACLES: The Great Khairacles is pleased such simple weights can impress. But now- a greater challenge.
The Emerald Grand Paint Star lowers from the ceiling.
HUEY: The Grand Paint Star!
KHAIRACLES: That is correct. Very correct. It’s a shiny green Paint Star. Now, watch the Great Khairacles lift this ancient object.
Khairacles grabs the Grand Paint Star from below. However, despite his great effort, the star refuses to budge.
KHAIRACLES: This Grand Paint Star- despite its small size, it is much more difficult to move by hand.
Khairacles slicks the back of his head.
KHAIRACLES: But to that, the Great Khairacles laughs at the idea of failure! Second time is the charm.
Khairacles tries again. This time, he succeeds, pushing the star back upwards!
KHAIRACLES: Never think the Great Khairacles is not the strongest on the island. The Great Khairacles has yet to meet anyone who can disprove him! (Though the Great Khairacles wishes those two had not left...But at least the third came back.)
Khairacles look down on Mario, Huey, Kidd and Edwin.
KHAIRACLES: Like this rusty can. Or the goat squadee. Or the ex-musketeer. Or the man who was here earlier, now wearing red. But if they think they can outmuscle the Great Khairacles, maybe they would like a try on-stage.
The Great Khairacles jumps out.
HUEY: How’d he lift the Paint Star so easily?!
KIDD: Yeah. Something about this Khairacles joker feels bananas!
Perry gets up.
PERRY: Uh, Khairacles? The audience? You kind of left them here? (Great, now I gotta stall!) Um, uh...Hey folks. We’re experiencing technical difficulties. It seems Khairacles has slipped the circus! Hehhh...So please enjoy this unscheduled intermission!
Perry tries headbonking back and forth, between both sides of the stage.
EDWIN: Mario, Khairacles is one of Aace’s newest recruits! And let me warn you- that strength wasn’t just an act! He could lift the entire tent if he wanted to!
HUEY: I can still smell the Grand Paint Star through the bananas and lingering black paint. Let’s take Khairacles up on his dare.
BOOSKETEER: How does Lord Khairacles do that?! I’ve only ever seen Lord Aace move the Grand Paint Star, and not as easily.
 
+When Mario and co. exit...
TICKET VENDOR BOOSKETEER: I hadn’t a clue Khairacles would up and leave like that! How mystifying!
+Upon talking to the Monkhairas...
MONKHAIRA: Khairacles left? Knowing him, he’s waiting for a smart challenger. The way he slicks his hair back with his left arm- it’s like he becomes a titan when he does that!
MONKHAIRA: Lord Khairacles tries to keep his stage hazard free. He had a bad experience with a sharp object while performing one time. Now, he usually swats that stuff away with his right arm.
67GU9Vu.jpg


+Upon entering the stage...
The lights shine on Mario and co.
PERRY: Aaaaaaaand we’re back! Thanks for your patience, folks. Please put your hands, feathers, hooves and thistles together for...
The lights shine brighter on...
PERRY: The Mario Troupe and Huey-gee Super Funtime Show!
LOUIS: We’re the Mario troupe, and pl- oh, sorry. Force of habit.
PERRY: Any habit’s fine up here! Don’t be shy, fellas!
MARIRANA: We’re fron’ and centre. Might as well give these folks wha’ they paid for! Righ’, Huey suga?
Huey looks sick.
HUEY: NO. No no no no..I don’t do well in front of crowds.
LOUIS: Relax, amico. What do we got to lose? We’re right behind you, all the way!
HUEY: ...Well, here goes nothing. *gulp*
Huey flies up to front stage. [...]
[After Huey’s impression fails to make a mark...]
BOOSKETEER: ...I say- I believe I lost some intelligence just hearing that.
Huey flies back.
HUEY: Tough crowd. That joke used to kill back in the Workshop.
MARIRANA: Ye did yer best, hon.
LOUIS: Maybe Mario’s got some jokes up his stache? The guy’s grande at parties!
[After Mario’s Pixel Shroom routine...]
Everyone applauds.
MONKHAIRA: Ook! Lord Khairacles didn’t misjudge the newcomers, after all! We’re in for quite a show of strength!
Huey flies up.
HUEY: Really?! They liked THAT but my tin-can impression flopped?!
LOUIS: It’s hard to beat the old-school materiale, Huey uomo.
PERRY: Oh, that was just classic, Mario. And now (for real this time!)...the moment you’ve all been waiting for...The Emerald Circus main act! These (potentially) death-defying performances will keep you on the edge of your seat! And with that, let’s get this party started!

WAVES (MARIO)
1: Unicycling Monkhaira team (“[…]The trick-riding, monkey-business UNICYCLE MONKHAIRAAAAAAS!”)
2: Arantula Trapeze [x2] and Monkhaira Trapeze [x2] (“Let’s give a creepily warm welcome to our next guests...these uncharitable spiders and their monkey mates, trapezing for their lives!”)
2.5 (if Mario talked to a certain someone): Trapeze Anti-Guy (“Uuuuuh- folks, this is part of the act! There’s nothing to worry about, you’re completely safe, and we aren’t in the vicinity of an unstoppable maniac! I’m talking, of course, about the ANTI-GUUUUUUUY!”)
3: Monstroom and Dino Rhino [x3] on a huge Bongo Trampoline [adds (“Ahem...And now for the denouement! The high-flying buffed-up bad boys- The Bongo Trampolining Monstroom and Dino Rhinos!”)
+The Yoshis try eating Mario every five attacks he makes. Not every five turns- every five attacks. Failure at blocking Yoshi merely removes applied paint to the current card, but the attack still continues away.

+After defeating Trapeze-Anti Guy...
ANTI-GUY: It’s just as I said it would go on the Sunset Express, Mario. If it had to happen this way, I'm glad it was you...
The Anti-Guy faints.

ARTIFACTS
8-Bit Crystal
Slots: 2
Effect: Gives Mario the Circus status for the first 3 turns of a battle.
 
+After clearing all waves...
PERRY: What a breathtaking show! Put your appendages together for our performers!
+Upon exiting the battle...
PERRY: Our show’s almost at an end! But Mario and his friends aren’t out of the jungle yet- he has one more opponent to prove himself against! When they’re ready to face off against him, they should jump on that bongo!
+After saving, Mario jumps on the bongo three times. On the fourth one, however, Khairacles lands in the room.
KHAIRACLES: The Great Khairacles is impressed with your strength, red man. And Edwin, you’ve improved since you trained here.
EDWIN: Well, Mario and his friends- my friends- were all supportive. Huey, Marirana, Louis, Nya, even Kidd. Without them, I don’t know where I’d be.
MARIRANA: Yer so sweet like tha’, Edwin.
KHAIRACLES: Such a change- you believe your friends are your power. Very different from when you began. But now, you must both prove the full scope of your strength. Aace entrusts the Great Khairacles with the Emerald Grand Paint Star while he and the others prepare to revive Shadhema. And the Great Khairacles does not intend to display weakness in front of this large crowd!

+After defeating Khairacles...
KHAIRACLES: To think the Great Khairacles would be bested by a man in red pajamas...! But the Great Khairacles will not surrender the Grand Paint Star....! He does not wish to! Aace...little purple mushroom...Khairacles is...sorry. Shadhema...
Khairacles tips over onto Perry.
PERRY: NononoNONO!
Khairacles’ hat then falls off, revealing purple Dry Shrooms in his hair. Mario peels them off like a sticker.
KIDD: That creep had purple Shrooms in his hair!? Ugh- if my boy Billy was this gross, I’d- wait. Where’s Aace?!
Mario and co. look around.
KIDD: I thought you said he’d be here, Edwin!
EDWIN: I thought so, too! I don’t get it...he wouldn’t have just left his only Grand Paint Star this laxative. Something’s changed...
HUEY: Then let’s wake the Grand Paint Star up and ask him ourselves! It’s the last one, anyways!
Before Mario jumps on the bongos again...
KHAIRACLES: Red man...if you find a sentient yellow banana...tell him the Great Khairacles...would like to get together with him...ugh.
Khairacles faints.
+After Mario reaches the tent roof, Gulliv T breaks free of his bonds.
GULLIV T: It took a while to break out, but I used my memories of when I was tiny to break free! I’ll have you all out in a bit.
CAAN: Finally, mate! You’re looking like a Yellow member already!
VINN: Still your tongue, Caan! He must join Red Rescue Squad- his skills surpass the minimum criteria!
VERDA: Let’s not fight, my friends...Blue Rescue Squad always accepts anyone who can work in a team.
BEEYEW T: Can he join our Green squad, Mommy? He’s r’lly cute.
OMBRA: Whoa, female maaaaaaaaan! This little cub needs to join us! We’re a little low in Purple lately!
LEBLAANC: It’s Gulliv’s decision who he wants to join. But he must never forget it’s not his size, but his dedication, that help define him.
GULLIV T: Thanks, Captain Leblaanc!
LEBLAANC: I have faith in all my Squadees! ...even if I don’t in myself...
GULLIV T: Huh?
LEBLAANC: You’re doing great, Gulliv! You keep at it!
Perry crawls from under Khairacles.
PERRY: ....r...RRRR...MARIO!? Why can’t any of the Musketeers beat that guy!? Maybe I should have stayed with Lord Bowser and Gary after all! Maybe-!
Perry’s eyes begin to glow.
PERRY: Uh-uh, did I say that? Uh, I mean BOY, it sure is nice I’m working with the Musketeers!
Perry’s eyes stop glowing.
PERRY: That was TOO close! Might as well go find AAAACE! and see if he has any ideas.
Perry runs off.

DAISY: Ahhhhh- Mustard! Whoever owns this café gave it a really nice name! You coming, Luigi?
LUIGI: I a-URGH! Could use-a UGHHH! Little help here AUGHGHHH!
Luigi enters the scene...carrying a large red gorilla wearing a very familiar banana on his head.
LUIGI: I a-didn’t expect Nabana to a-gain so much a-weight out of a-nowhere! He a-really needs to a-exercise when he a-returns home! Let’s a-bring Nabana to the a-café- he can a-rest there.
qt974X0.jpg

DAISY: What about the treasure?
LUIGI: Nabana’s a-too hurt! I can’t a-risk his a-skin for something we a-can’t even find! You can a-go look for the treasure if you a-want- I’m a-staying by a-Nabana’s side until he a-wakes up!
Daisy feels guilty.
DAISY: Luigi- I’m sorry. I wasn’t thinking about Nabana.
LUIGI: ...It’s a-OK, Daisy. I was a-acting greedy, too. It a-wouldn’t be right if I was a-mad only at you. Maybe- the a-treasure itself isn’t a-important, but the a-adventure the three of us had together...
DAISY: ...and still are.
LUIGI: That’s a-right, Daisy. I didn’t a-consider that. But that a-still leaves us with a-no leads on...THE CRYSTAL!
Luigi retrieves the crystal from his pocket.
Luigi’s crystal radiates energy. It shatters, revealing a pointer underneath. It points towards the large pit.
LUIGI: It looks a-like it’s a-pointing...?
DAISY: ...Luigi- it’s gotta be directing us to the treasure! I bet it doesn’t work for the Musketeers because they’re- they’re- they’re not as innocent or kind as you. It probably wouldn’t have worked for me, either. Or Nabana-
NABANA: Did someone say “strongest ape in the world”...?
Luigi and Daisy are alarmed.
Nabana wakes up. He then flexes his newfound arms.
NABANA [ i.imgur.com/5ihHV35.png ]: Haw. Haw. Haw. Behold- the muscles of a true Ape King, mon!
DAISY: Nabana! You’re alright!
LUIGI: We a-thought you were a-goner!
NABANA: It’s great to have fans of my might! But I have one question- who the heck are you two mawgas? And why’d you call me Nabana? I’d probably call miself that, too, but that’s not my name.
LUIGI: Nabana, you a-okay...?
DAISY: We’re your friends, Luigi and Daisy. We had a trip in Mossrock Theater? You were on a treasure hunt with us?
NABANA: But I know I’m a lone ape. Last thin I rememba, I was exercising on the edge of Mount Rumble, when the volcano erupted. The vibrations nearly sent me to my doom. I got dis feelin’ I’m lookin’ for some bredren of mine, though.
LUIGI: But you a-said...I can’t a-believe I’m a-actually saying this...you-a kept a calling me you’re a-second banana.
Nabana looks surprised.
NABANA: You seem pretty convinced we know each other. And when you speak those words, I think you’re telling the truth, mon.
DAISY: Well, at least we made some progress, Luigi. Why don’t we bring Nabana to this awesomely-named café, and then we’ll-?
Nabana grabs Luigi and Daisy.
LUIGI: Nabana?
NABANA: And miss out on your treasure hunt, mon? Then I’d be lying to whoever I’m looking for! If we were looking for something togetha, we’ll finish it togetha!
LUIGI: Nabana...you’re a-one of the a-best.
NABANA: It’s what I do, mon! Now, fasten your furbelts- ‘tis goin’ to be a bumpy ride!
Nabana rushes towards the pit. He then jumps down, holding Luigi and Daisy.
DAISY: YEAAAAAAAH, NABANA!
