Mario and Goombella show the updated map to Professor Frankly, who reveals that the first Crystal Star is in [[Petal Meadows]]. To reach this place, they must find a [[Warp Pipe|pipe]] in Rogueport Sewers. After finding it, Mario and Goombella arrive to Petal Meadows, where they see [[Hooktail]] and her castle. The duo stops at a nearby village called [[Petalburg]] and discover from the [[Kroop|mayor]] that the dragon Hooktail has been terrorizing the village. The mayor tells them that Hooktail guards the Crystal Star in her castle, and that to access it, they must find the [[Sun Stone|two]] [[Moon Stone|stone]] keys in [[Shhwonk Fortress]]. After finding them, Mario and Goombella march to Hooktail's castle, with [[Koops]] in tow (who wants to defeat Hooktail to avenge his dead father and become stronger). After navigating through the castle's traps with the help of Koops, they encounter the dragon and defeat her, allowing [[Koopley|Koops's father]] to get out of the dragon's gut and present Mario with the [[Diamond Star]].

Somewhere else, it is revealed that [[Princess Peach]] was abducted by the X-Nauts. When a X-Naut tells [[Sir Grodus]] someone got the first Crystal Star, Peach accidentally blurts out Mario's name. Grodus hears this and orders the [[Shadow Sirens]] to steal the map in Mario's possession. Peach soon meets [[TEC-XX|TEC]], who develops an interest in Peach's concept of love, and asks for her help to understand it. Peach agrees; in exchange, TEC lets her send [[Mailbox SP|e-mails]] to Mario. During another scene transition, at [[Bowser's Castle]], [[Kammy Koopa]] tells [[Bowser]] about Mario's quest to find the Crystal Stars and Peach's abduction, things that motivate Bowser to hunt for the Crystal Stars and kidnap Peach back. He and Kammy head for Rogueport.

The [[Emerald Star|second Crystal Star]] is revealed to be in [[The Great Tree]], home of small creatures known as [[Puni|Punies]], deep inside [[Boggly Woods]]. When searching for the pipe leading to Boggly Woods in [[Rogueport Sewers]], Mario and his partners encounter [[Punio]], who tells them that the [[Secret Society of the X-Nauts|X-Nauts]] have invaded the Great Tree, capturing most of the [[Puni|Punies]] and that the [[Jabbies]], the Punies' enemies, have allied with the X-Nauts and are trying to expulse the Punies from the Great Tree. Mario and co. decide to help out the Punies, and therefore Punio leads the group to the Boggly Woods. After getting there, Mario and co. encounter the [[Shadow Sirens]] with a [[Flurrie's Necklace|necklace]], who do not recognize him due to having lost a sketch of him. The group continues and arrives to the Great Tree. However, they realize that the tree is locked. Punio suggests they find [[Madame Flurrie]]; to find the secret entrance. However, upon reaching her home, Flurrie reveals she has lost her necklace and doesn't want anyone to see her without it. After defeating the Sirens and returning the necklace to Flurrie, she joins them in their quest. The group finds the secret entrance and enters the tree; after freeing the locked Punies with the aid of a [[Puni Orb|special orb]] and after solving the Great Tree's puzzles and defeating the [[Jabbies]], they get the second star at the bottom of the tree. There, Lord Crump snatches it, and activates a time bomb to blow up the tree. After chasing him to the entrance, he stops the bomb and uses [[Magnus Von Grapple]] to fight the heroes, but he is defeated by the group. Afterwards, the X-Nauts evacuate the tree and Mario and co. obtain the [[Emerald Star]].

The [[Gold Star|third Crystal Star]] appears on a [[Glitz Pit|large arena]] in a [[Glitzville|floating town]]. To reach [[Glitzville]], Mario and the gang must visit [[Don Pianta]]. He offers them the ticket they need after doing him a favor. Once Mario and his team arrive in Glitzville, they enter the [[Glitz Pit]], a popular place in which fighters brawl everyday, and spot the Crystal Star on the [[Champ's Belt]], held by [[Rawk Hawk]], the current champion of the Pit. They sign up in the Pit, battle through the ranks, and eventually gain a [[Yoshi (Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door)|newborn Yoshi]] as a partner. Soon, a mysterious figure known only as "X" starts sending cryptic e-mails to Mario. The e-mails lead Mario and his partners to discover that the Star on the belt is a fake, and that the real Crystal Star is being used by [[Grubba]], the promoter of the Glitz Pit. Mario & co. expose his wrongdoings and chase him into the fighting arena, where he transforms into [[Macho Grubba]] in order to eliminate Mario and his friends. However, the group manages to defeat him. After the battle, [[Jolene]], Grubba's assistant, appears and reveals herself as the mysterious X, explains her story, and gives Mario the [[Gold Star]].

At the X-Naut base, [[TEC]] asks Peach to go ask Grodus a question relating to his plans. The Princess goes undercover in an X-Naut disguise and learns that Grodus is plotting to use the Crystal Stars to take over the world. TEC allows her to send this message to Mario. Meanwhile, Bowser and Kammy are searching for one of the Crystal Stars in the Great Tree, where they discover that Mario has already got the Crystal Star.

Line 130: Line 130:
Prof. Frankly tells the group that the [[Ruby Star|Crystal Star]] is located in the [[Creepy Steeple]], near a small town named [[Twilight Town]]. When Mario & co. get to Twilight Town, they discover that the village is under a curse cast by a [[Doopliss|monster]] who lives in the steeple. Using a new Black Chest Demon [[Black Chest Demon#Tube Mode|power]], the group reaches the steeple, and battles the monster. During the battle, the monster uses an ability to steal Mario's name and body, transforming Mario into a shadowy version of himself. Mario's partners claim the Crystal Star and leave with [[Doopliss|whom they think is Mario]]. Meanwhile, the [[Shadow Sirens]] are in Twilight Town, planning on defeating Mario and his partners with their new weapon: the [[Superbombomb]]. However, [[Beldam]] seems to have lost it, prompting her to blame [[Vivian]] and to force her to search for it. The real Mario returns to Twilight Town, and helps [[Vivian]] with her problem. Out of gratitude, she joins Mario's party. They eventually discover that the monster's name is [[Doopliss]]; after telling Doopliss his name, he is weakened and flees to Creepy Steeple. Mario and Vivian chase him there and they fight once more. Mario and his new partner defeat Doopliss, allowing Mario to regain his name and body and to reclaim the [[Ruby Star]].

At the [[X-Naut]] base, [[TEC]] asks the Princess to participate in a sort of "quiz show" with him. By doing this, she discovers what the "treasure" of the [[Thousand-Year Door]] really is: the "treasure" is actually an ancient demon. The Princess then sends these news to Mario. Meanwhile, [[Bowser]] continues his quest for Crystal Stars by flying up to [[Glitzville]] in his [[Koopa Clown Car]]. However, it malfunctions halfway there, and he travels underwater to return to Rogueport. After he and Kammy return, he orders Kammy to continue her research on the Crystal Stars.

[[File:KeelhaulKey65.png|200px|thumb|left|Keelhaul Key]][[File:Cortez.png|thumb|right|275px|Cortez]]The [[Sapphire Star|fifth Crystal Star]] is located deep within a [[Pirate's Grotto|pirate's lair]] on the southern island of [[Keelhaul Key]]. To reach the island, with the help of [[Flavio]] and [[Admiral Bobbery]], they sail to the island with some Toads and [[Lord Crump]] in disguise (known as "Four-Eyes"). On their way to the island, Mario and co. are attacked by Cortez's [[Ember]]s, which shipwrecks them on Keelhaul Key. Later on, some of the crew members are attacked by more Embers, and Bobbery sacrifices himself to save them. Bobbery says he is close to death, and after giving him [[Chuckola Cola|his last request]], they found out that he was just asleep; after Mario wakes him, he joins Mario's party. With the aid of Bobbery and Flavio's [[Skull Gem]], Mario and co. enter Pirate's Grotto. After solving some puzzles, and after gaining another [[Boat Mario|ability]] from a [[Black Chest Demon]], they finally reach the lair of [[Cortez]]. After a battle, Cortez gives Mario his [[Sapphire Star]]. Afterwards, Lord Crump abandons his disguise and tells Mario that he will continue attacking him with his ship's cannons, until he hands over the Crystal Star. With the help of Cortez's ship and Flavio's Skull Gem, they defeat the invading X-Nauts, along with their leader.

In the X-Naut base, [[TEC]] wishes to gain access to a disk at [[Grodus]]'s room, and asks Peach to help him. After making an invisibility potion, she helps him and he promises to analyze the data. Peach then sends another e-mail to Mario, informing him of this. Meanwhile, in Twilight Town, [[Bowser]] and [[Kammy Koopa]] run into Lord Crump. The three get into an argument, which escalates to an armed confrontation between the [[Koopa Troop]] and the [[Secret Society of the X-Nauts]]. However, Bowser inadvertently ignites the [[Superbombomb]], knocking out both armies.
