Super Paper Mario with Lianna the Bunny!

Chapter 8: World 4

Through the fierce battle against Francis, Tippi and the Mario gang grew closer. Behind a fourth floor lay a whole new world that beckoned them both. What awaited was faster and stranger than anything they'd encounter so far... in order to claim the Pure Heart, they would have to endure new, far-out trials...

Chapter 4-1: Into Outer Space

They ended up in outer space. "Mmm, stars everywhere... I believe we're in outer space, almost certainly..." Tippi said. They then start to gasp for air, since there is no oxygen in space.

"What troubles you? Ah... Yes, of course... We seem to be lacking air... You need that don't you? Oh... Oh, gracious me... What am I to do? Um... Well... Let me see... Uh... NOOOOO!" Tippi screamed. They were then warped back to Flipside.

They panted as they were brought back to Flipside, fortunate enough to be alive. "Hey... Please, wake up..." Tippi cried out, she grew worried. They all panted and woke up. "You're alright, aren't you? Thank goodness..." Tippi sighed in relief.

"Took your sweet time..." Bowser groaned, he stood up. "Thank gosh we made it out alive... we got to talk to Merlon!" Peach explained. "I agree. Let's head to him immediately." Tippi replied.

Mario and the guys then headed back to Merlon's to ask him for help. "Oh ho! That was certainly quick work... You've already found the next Pure Heart?" Merlon asked.

"No Merlon... That door lead us straight into outer space..." Tippi responded. "We cannot breath in space without like a helmet of sorts..." Peach said.

"Oh ho, I imagine that was an unwelcome surprise! Well, there aren't any space helmets around town... But I would imagine there would be something LIKE a space helmet that would suffice... And I just so happen to- Oh, blast it!" He shouted, Merlon searched through his shelf. Mario and the crew watched him if he had any luck.

"Oh, blast it all! I cleaned out my shelves the other day... I HAD the perfect thing, but I was making space, and I gave it to someone in town!" He explained. Mario asked who this person was. "Oh, just some random boy... It seemed more convenient than recycling it... You must find that boy and explain the situation! Get it back from him!" He ordered.

They nodded and headed to find that kid. They soon found him. "Huh? Did Merlon' gives me somethin' like a helmet?" The little boy asked. Mario nods in response. "You mean this fishbowl? Yeah, I kept Captain Gills here in a cup, but then he gets too big for it. Yeah, that's why I gots really happy when I gots this fishbowl! Thing is, now the captain gots too big, the BOWL gets too small for him!" The boy cried out.

He then gets an idea. "Hey, I know! Maybe you could find a nice place to sets Captain Gills free for me! Captain deserves FREEDOM! Then you gets the fishbowl. That's good, huh? Hmm.. but where can he go... I wanna knows that he'll be nearby at all times... you gotta help me!" He called out.

Mario took the fishbowl and then went to a different floor outside of a café in Flipside, then proceeded to put Captain Gills in the water. Now the fishbowl is empty! And now they can go into space with a helmet!

"Now we can go into space... So... Let's head back to that door..." Tippi said. They headed back into space. "Wanna use the helmet?" Tippi asked. The crew used the Helmet, all obtaining space helmets.

"Well, what do you think? Can you breathe now?" Tippi asked them. They all nodded. "Thank goodness we can breath!" Peach called out. "Much better." Bowser replied. Luigi nodded.

"Very well... Let's go then! The Pure Heart is somewhere in this sea of stars..." Tippi said. They floated down towards a spaceship with "SOS" singles coming out.
