Stage 6: Bingo Road

Somewhere in Yoshi Casino Land, there was a legendary area known as Bingo Road. On this “road”, which was actually about as far away from the meaning as possible, you could roll into giant numbered holograms in an attempt to get three numbers in a row vertically, horizontally, or diagonally to earn a “BINGO”. Team Chaoddix was on this very road, looking at a very tall wall...
“...Why are there walls in the middle of a so-called ‘road’?” Dr. Pikachu thought out loud, using quote marks.
“I gave up trying to make sense of this place back in Stage 5.” MackDaddyYoshi shrugged. “Well, if we’re gonna get any farther, we’ll need Top to try to fly us over the wall.”
“Why?” Top asked.
“Because you’re the Fly guy.” MDY answered.
Dr. P made a series of Shy Guy noises.
“Why am I the Fly guy?” Top asked, apparently ignoring Dr. P’s Shy Guy noises.
“I dunno. Just do it.” MDY said.
“But I’m tired of flying.” Top whined. “I wanna be something else.”
“So you’re saying we should change things up?” Dr. P suggested.
“Yeah.”
“Eh, sounds good to me.” MDY said. “Top, you’re Speed, I’m Fly, and Dr. P, you’re Power.”
“But I’m not strong.” Dr. P said, scratching his head. “What would I do?”
“Use that glove thingy!” Top said.
“Oh. ‘K.” Dr. P nodded.
“We good now?” MDY asked. “Let’s go.”
“Wait, what are we supposed to do here?” Dr. P said, making MDY stop.
“Where were you during the briefing?” MDY asked.
“I had to go to the bathroom.” Dr. P answered. “It was a doozy. NUMBER TWO.”
“Please, spare me the details...” MDY groaned. “According to the paper we got, the special part of this place where Terry is said to have his base of operations at requires 10 ‘chips’ to enter. So, we have to find 10 of these chips.”
“Okey dokey.” Said Top as he inhaled a conveniently-placed Wheelie. After promptly swallowing it, he became Wheel Top, donning a green and red backwards baseball cap.
“So you got a hat.” MDY said flatly. “Any other magic tricks?”
“Just this...” Top announced. He transformed himself into a brown and dark green tire and sped around the platform several times before slamming into the very tall wall and turning back into a Kirby. “Ouch. And as for sticking to walls, I can always quick-change into Ninja Top to make Omosneezier cry.”
“Sweet.” Dr. P quipped. “And I picked up this chip that was mysteriously floating in the middle of the platform. I’m surprised neither of you picked it up.”
“Who cares? One chip down, nine to go.” MDY said. “Oh, and look, springs.”
“Let’s go!” Top cheered. He turned into a wheel and sped toward the wall, with Dr. P and MDY following behind him. He jumped up and zoomed toward a spring with a Homing Attack, and the springs sent the team toward another spring, and another, and yet another until they hit a balloon which gave them 5 Coins. As they fell afterward, they touched a floating green ball which sent them flying again. Using the newly acquired momentum, they reached the platform in front of them, which contained a Robo-Paratroopa, trying to electrocute the area below it.
“Ooh ooh, let me try!” Dr. P said, switching the team into Power formation. As he said this, a large white glove popped out of his hat, attached to a chain of sorts. The glove grabbed Top and MDY, and then Dr. P used the glove to throw Top at the Robo-Paratroopa, destroying it.
As he was spinning away in the glove’s clutches, MDY noticed a floating question mark. “What’s that?” He wondered as he hopped out of the glove. He walked over to it and touched it.
“We gotta be really careful around that robot with the searchlight.” Dr. P said suddenly. “Top, do you think you could get by him?” After finishing, Dr. P slumped over.
“Huh? What? Who is this ‘robot’ you speak of?” Top asked.
“Whoa, I just blacked out for a second.” Dr. P moaned, holding his head. “Trippy...OH LOOK, A SWITCH.” He walked over and stepped on it, and a previously closed door opened. The three ran through and found a fan.
“Don’t look at me. I’m not Power anymore.” MDY said.
“I can do it! I’m the one!” Dr. P shouted, and with that, a small helicopter blade came out of his hat. He jumped into the fan’s updraft and the helicopter took him up into the air. And thanks to the power of stuff, Top and MDY were clinging onto him as they flew up out of a hole, overlooking a platform filled with robots, several of which had not been seen before.
“What’s that?” Top asked, looking at one of the new enemies, which looked like a UFO with a small robot clinging onto it. The UFO floated over to Top and ensnared him into a tractor beam, suspending him in midair. “Wheeeeeee!”
“My fellow Amuricans, this is a Mecha-Lakitufo.” Dr. P announced. “It captures people in a tractor beam, forcing the other teammates to rescue them. If all three are captured, it’s game over.”
“Since when are you running for president?” MDY asked.
“Since I joined...THE MARIO PARTY!!!” Dr. P yelled as confetti fell from the sky. “It’s the most awesomest political party ever. Why? Because it’s not a political party at all! CUE THE MARCHING DEATH METAL BAND!!!”
Suddenly, a death metal band clad in marching uniforms started marching and screaming words that start with ‘d-e’ from the bowels of their lungs. Fortunately, the robots were not fans of death metal, and they exploded, becoming dead metal and freeing Top, which doesn’t make any sense because metal is non-living and isn’t even alive to begin with, so it can’t die and blah de blah blah blargg.
“For some reason, I feel like brushing my teeth.” Dr. P said. “Maybe it’s because of all the creeping. Rusty. Meat. Because that is truly the heart and soul of all death metal. Thanks, Taranchula.”
“Ja, be sure to check out our new wideo?” One of the members said.
Poor Taranchula never got a reply, because our heroes had broken the never-before-mentioned glass panel with Dr. P’s Extend-O-Glove and fell through, landing on a ramp and rolling like balls. Oh, and they picked up a chip on the way.
“Found it!” Top cheered.
“This must be a...VIP chip or something.” Dr. P wondered.
Fortunately, they weren’t rolling for long and they hit a line of springs that sent them flying onto a green game table with a heavily-armored Robo-Paratroopa equipped with a searchlight...on its butt.
“Tee hee. Butt.” Pyro said as he read this chapter.
Upon touching another one of those question marks, Top started talking.
“That armor is too strong for me or MDY to break without becoming lazy. Dr. P, can you handle this?” He asked.
“Uh, Top?” Dr. P said. “We already passed by the Robo-Paratroopa because MDY flew us over it because we’re still in Fly formation.”
“What?”
“Never mind.” Dr. P muttered as they fell down onto a slope because MDY forgot to press a switch to stop some rapidly rolling giant dice. This slope, however, had a hole in the middle covered by star panels that changed color and eventually vanished as our heroes came into contact with them.
“Be careful! Proceed with caution.” Dr. P warned.
“What are you, a road sign or something?” MDY asked.
“I, unlike some other people, am not shaped like an octagon or a diamond or a triangle.” Dr. P said. “So that statement is untrue.”
When the three reached the bottom of the slope, they zoomed down and up a couple of ramps onto a platform with another Security Robo-Paratroopa. Oh, and there were some fast-rolling dice there, too, at a very tall wall. This time, however, MDY shot it down with a Thunder Shoot.
“Naaaaachoooooos...” Top moaned as he lay by the fallen robot, dazed.
Ignoring Top’s dizziness, Dr. P switched the team into Power formation and destroyed the robot, causing a nearby cage to recede and giving MDY a level-up.
“Level up!” MDY said he touched the now-freed switch, causing the dice to stop rolling. And with some quick pseudo-flying, they climbed the dice and grabbed a handle, which took them up to the next part of the wall, which was covered in springs.
“My turn!” Top said, switching into Speed formation. He Homing-Attacked a spring, sending them into more springs and eventually a star ball, which gave our heroes the boost they needed to reach the top, which made them go rolling down yet another slope. This one, however...WAS A BINGO SLOPE!!!
“Chips? You mean potato chips?” Top asked as he hit the number 1.
“Not those kind of chips, you idiot!” MDY scolded.
The three went farther down the ramp, with Top and Dr. P going down one side, and MDY going down the other, collecting the numbers 2 and 3.
“Bingo!” Top cheered. “Who would name a dog Bingo, anyway? IT BOGGLES THE MIND!!”
“Don’t you mean, Bingo-es the mind?” Dr. P said, snickering as he grabbed number 4.
“No.” Top answered as he rolled up a ramp and shot into the sky, collecting numbers 5 and 7 and a chip, leaving MDY to grab 6.
“DOUBLE BINGO!!!” MDY cheered. “Wait, why are we saying that?” He rolled into number 8.
“Can we stop rolling now?” Dr. Pikachu asked. “This feels too much like Metroid. Not that I mind, but this is based on Sonic Heroes, not the Metroid series...”
“Please, enough of the fourth wall breaking, you two...” MackDaddyYoshi complained. “Let’s just get through this stage so I don’t have to be in such close proximity to you morons.”
“‘Morons’?!” Top asked. “We prefer the term ‘seriousness-challenged’.”
“I can be serious...” Dr. P retorted. “It’s just that I don’t feel like it right now.”
“HOW ABOUT NOW?” MDY asked as he smacked into Dr. P, sending him bouncing off the edges of the slope.
“Ow-ow-ow-ow-ow-nope-ow-ow-ow-ow-ow-OH NOOOOOOOOES...” Dr. P exclaimed as he careened off the slope into the neon abyss below.
During the ensuing chaos, Top had rolled into number 9 and collected another chip.
“BINGO OF PERFECTNESS!!!” Top screamed as he and MDY rolled down a ramp onto a pinball table. Unfortunately, MDY was not in the mood for gambling and he quickly reached the top of the table and fell down onto another platform, only to find Dr. P standing there.
“What took you so long?” Dr. P asked.
The only answer he got was being Thunder Shot into a Robo-Paratroopa and landing on a question mark.
“If you get captured by a Gold Mecha-Lakitufo, you’ll be taken away.” Dr. P rambled. “We have to destroy it before it can. By the way, we have five chips now, right?”
“Four.” Top quipped, holding up an arm. “Curse these fingerless stubby limbs. I can only count to four.”
“And we’re proud of you.” MDY said. “Guess we only have six chips to go. This stage is really long.”
“Yeah, this might be the longest chapter yet.” Dr. P added. “But at least during our conversation, we bounced off some of those star ball things, killed another one of those Robo-Paratroopas with the searchlights on their butts, and we grabbed another chip, so NOW we have five.”
“Gah, we’re only halfway there.” MDY groaned as they bounced off more springs and landed on another ramp, which made them roll into balls again. They reached the end of the ramp and landed on another platform which had two large dice moving around in circles.
“Hey, look, there’s a chip in the middle!” Dr. P said, pointing to it.
Top then sucked up the chip, but MDY grabbed it before it could get eaten.
“That’s number six. Four more.” MDY said.
Dr. P then killed the Goombot guarding a door, allowing them to pass through and kill some more robots, granting them the use of a Team Blast.
“Let’s use it now!” Top yelled. “Let’s use it now!”
“But then it’d be a waste.” Dr. P said.
“You’re a waste.” Top replied.
“That’s a Pyro thing to say.”
“Really?”
“Ya rly.”
“Oh.”
Dr. P then jumped into an updraft and used his Pika Copter, flying up over a platform and some star panels.
“Dr. P, there’s a lot for ‘em!” Top said.
“All right, leave them to me!” Dr. P answered, bouncing off the panels and grabbing another chip. “It’s Team Blast time!”
Getting the message, Top and MDY brought out the Super Microwave and the Chaos Emeralds, and Dr. P shoved a Goombot in the microwave. MDY turned it on, and after a few seconds, it started to malfunction, the familiar smoke pouring out and flames sprouting.
“The Chaos Emerald-powered Super Microwave can’t take it anymore!” Top said.
“You should seriously get this thing fixed.” MDY mentioned.
“It’s gonna blow!” Dr. P shouted. “Bye, Goombot!” The three ran away from the Super Microwave, which started shaking violently.
“I REGRET NOTHING.” The Goombot said proudly. “WELL, EXCEPT FOR THAT TIME WHEN--”
The Super Microwave exploded, destroying all of the nearby robots and turning them into Coins, breaking the nearby cage which held a switch. Top pressed it, and a door opened, which led them to a dead-end made of glass.
“LET’S PLAY...A BASEBALL GAME!!” Dr. P sang horribly, breaking the glass with the Extend-O-Glove and sending the three down onto another BINGO ramp. Unfortunately, they were unable to get a Perfect Bingo again, or any Bingo, for that matter, mainly because Top and MDY fell down some holes and Dr. P was focusing on collecting chips, of which he got only one. He eventually landed on a pinball table and fell off, landing on a whole bunch of springs, where he found MDY and Top at each other’s throats.
“What happened this time?” Dr. P asked.
“Nothing. We were just bored.” MDY answered.
“Oh. OK.”
“That and we got another chip, which brings us up to seven.”
“Eight.” Dr. P corrected, holding up the chip he collected.
“Where’s eight?” Top asked. “Did six eat him?”
“Top, that’s not how the joke goes.” Dr. P said.
“Yeah , it is. Six seven’d eight.”
“And that’s why you’re not a comedian.” MDY said.
“Let’s keep going.” Dr. P suggested. “We’re almost there.”
The team switched to Speed formation and Top sped past some Goombots and ran into some star balls, which sent the three flying up and over a wall onto a roof with Coins, a chip, and two switches.
“We should split up and press both switches at the same time.” MDY said.
Top and Dr. P walked off to the switches and pressed them. But nothing happened.
“And...now what?” Dr. P asked.
“I dunno. I thought for sure something would happen.” MDY replied, snapping his fingers in defeat. “Let’s just grab that chip and head back down to kill those robots.”
Dr. P grabbed the chip and MDY switched them into Fly formation and floated down.
“Hey, look, Mack!” Top said, pointing to the wall, which now had a passageway into another room, but it had lasers in the way.
“Something did happen after all!” MDY said happily. “But what about those lasers?”
“I can do this!” Top replied, inhaling a ninja star lying around for no reason whatsoever and turning into Ninja Top. He then spun around rapidly, causing leaves to swirl about him.
“Where’d the leaves come from?” Dr. P wondered. “And where’s Top?”
“He must’ve used some sort of technique to disappear.” MDY said.
“I did.” Top’s voice rang out. Dr. P and MDY turned to the direction of Top’s voice and found him on the other side of the lasers, holding the tenth chip and a whole bunch of Coins.
“Wow, this is the second time in a row Top’s been the one to finish the mission.” Dr. P said.
“Well, it had better not happen again...” MDY added. “Otherwise we’d never live this down.”

Mission Complete!

OH NOES THIS IS NEW NOW. The last few ones I put were ones I've done before but put them up here for sake of completeness.

V.S. Boss 3: Robot Circus

“Well, I think this is the place...” Dr. P said, looking around.
“How can’t it be?” MDY added. “It’s the only platform around here, except for those giant slot machines.”
“What about that oddly shaped thing that’s flying towards us?” Top suggested.
“What?” Dr. P asked. “What thing?”
“That.” Top answered, pointing to the giant green and purple dinosaur flying in a tiny ship half its size.
“Oh, that’s just TAR.” Dr. P said dismissively. “I mean, OMG TAR!” He yelled, doing a double take.
“Fearmyrobotarmytheywilldefeatyouandsonicteamcouldn'tthinkofabosshere...” TAR said in a very quick, almost incoherent speed. “Can'tbreathe...” She fainted and slumped down, tipping the ship over and falling down.
“...Oooooooooooookay.” MDY muttered. “Did anyone understood what she said?”
“I did.” Said a voice.
“Who’s that?” MDY asked.
“OMG TERRY IT BE!” Dr. P yelled, pointing at the black Goomba in a smaller version of TAR’s ship. “What do you want?”
“I just want you to be defeated by our mighty robot army.” Terry said menacingly.
“Robot army? That’s lame.” Top moaned.
“It is not lame!” Terry yelled defensively. “You have no business here or anywhere else. Your adventure stops here! Get them!” He commanded as a bunch of robots materialized.
“OH NOES ROBOTS. WHAT SHALL WE DO?” Top yelled.
“First, turn off Caps Lock.” Dr. P suggested. “Second, we murdalize them before they murdalize us. And third, we murdalize Terry.”
“You just said murdalize three times.” MDY deadpanned.
“I know. Murdalize.” Dr. P replied. “It’s a fun word to say, like spelunking. Or Falcon Punch.”
“Falcon Punch is three words, Dr. P.” Top attempted to correct. Unfortunately, a robot shot at Top, but luckily, he wasn’t the leader, so he just fell down to the ground and his body started blinking uncontrollably.
“That looks painful.” Dr. P winced. “I’d hate to blink in and out of existence uncontrollably.”
“That’s good, because if you did, we’d all be dead.” MDY said.
“Why?” Dr. P asked.
“Because we’re in Power formation, and we have no Coins. Don’t ask me why it works like that.”
“Why?”
“I just told you not to ask me! It’s just one of those things that make me not like Sonic games. And don’t ask me why I don’t like them.”
“Can I throw you now?”
“Oh, by all means.”
Dr. P grabbed Top and MDY with his Extend-O-Glove, and started throwing them at the robots, destroying them.
“Mwa ha ha ha ha! Smash them all!” Terry commanded the robots.
“Uh, we’re doing the smashing right now.” Dr. P said.
“WE DON’T TAKE ORDERS FROM YOU!” Top yelled.
“Can we murdalize them, then?” Dr. P asked. “Spelunking.”
“That’s different.” Top answered. “We can do that.”
Since there were no more robots, more appeared. Unfortunately, these were of the flying variety. Unfortunately for the “Unfortunately”, this wasn’t so unfortunate. In fact, for our heroes, it really didn’t change much, because Dr. P was able to kill them in a matter of seconds anyway.
“This kinda gets a bit repetitive after a while. Just a bit.” Dr. P said to himself. “Because I like to destroy. Like a freakin’ Jigglypuff.”
After those robots were dead, more appeared.
“We’re outnumbered!” Dr. P exclaimed, suddenly losing it.
“There’s so many of them!” Top added, freaking out on the spot.
“It’s an endless sea of robots!” MDY concurred. But he grabbed his teammates. “But we gotta keep going! Yoshi’s counting on us!”
“Oh yeah, I forgot we were saving Yoshi in this story.” Top realized.
“Hmph! Not bad!” Terry catcalled from the safety of his flying machine.
Dr. P passed leadership to Top and Speed formation so he could get in some action on the newest batch of robots. But much to Top’s dismay...
“THEY HAVE SHIELDS!!” Top screamed. He had been trying to run over the robots, but he kept running into the shields and bouncing about into the walls. “SHIELDS HAVE THEY!! OH, THE AGORAPHOBIA!”
“I don’t think agoraphobia’s a good description of this, Top.” MDY mentioned.
“Then, what is?” Top asked.
“Try, ‘I’m gonna let my good friend MDY be the leader’. Maybe that would be helpful.” MDY suggested subliminally.
“Huh? I’m gonna let my good friend MDY be the leader?” Top repeated. “How does that help? You suck as the leader.”
“Watch and learn.” MDY answered. He suddenly put the team in Flying formation, and proceeded to initiate a major beatdown to the robots, and the others after that, including flying ones, walking ones with spears, flying ones with gatling guns, walking ones with spears and shields, and...
“LOOK, WE CAN DO A TEAM BLAST!” Dr. P piped up as he extricated himself from the smoldering remains of a no-longer-functioning Robo-Paratroopa.
“Oh, so we can.” MDY said like he knew it all along. “Let’s go!”
Top and MDY pulled out the Super Microwave and the Chaos Emeralds, and Dr. P shoved a Robo-Paratroopa inside the microwave. MDY turned it on, and after a few seconds, it started to malfunction, the usual smoke and flames spouting and pouring out of it.
“The Chaos Emerald-powered Super Microwave can’t take it anymore!” Top said.
“You should seriously get this thing fixed.” MDY mentioned.
“It’s gonna blow!” Dr. P shouted. “Bye, Robo-Paratroopa armed with a gatling gun thing!” The three ran away from the Super Microwave, which started shaking violently.
“HOW COULD THIS HAPPEN TO ME?” The Paratroopa lamented. “I’VE MADE MY MIS--”
The Super Microwave exploded, destroying all of the nearby robots and turning them into Coins, which happened to be a lot of robots and therefore a lot of Coins.
“How could it happen to you? Because you listen to Simple Plan, you emo bot.” Dr. P announced, feeling proud of himself for doing so. “Anyway, it’s time to give up, Terry!”
“Yeah, you’re finished!” Top chided in.
“That was too easy.” MDY boasted.
“Hmph, this is only the beginning!” threatened Terry.
“Please tell me the threat’s empty.” Top whined. “This part must be getting boring by now for the readers.”
“FOURTH WALL BREACHED. INITIATE PANIC MODE.” One of the Elite Goombots droned. At once, all of the Goombots proceeded to run about, screaming monotone at the top of their voice synthesizers. Our heroes simply stood off to the side as the robots proceeded to line up, and leap off the platform like lemmings to their doom. Or to a oddly placed inexplicably floating park bench a few feet below.
Terry gaped at the sight he had just witnessed. That was the last time he lent out Lemmings for the Super NES and/or PSP and/or other systems it’s been released on.
“Had enough?” MDY called out to the vile Goomba.
“Don’t get excited, boys!” Terry shouted back. “Those were the easy ones.” He then flew off and smacked into the giant slot machine skyscraper.
“Lulz.” Dr. P grinned. He then saw a gold bar on the ground. “Hey look! Gold!”
“Really?” MDY turned to Dr. P and the gleaming brick in his hands. Upon closer examination, the platinum Yoshi noted, there was a familiar “W” engraved on the top surface. “A ‘W’...this must be a gold bar made by Wario or something!”
“Maybe it’s a clue?” Dr. P wondered.
“Does this count?” Top pointed at a wooden sign that was bizarrely right in the middle of the very platform they had just fought on that read, “WARIO’S GOLD MINE CANYON 15 MILES THATTA WAY -->”.
“As good a clue as any, Top.” MDY said. “Looks like we’re headed to Wario Canyon!”

A ROBOT ARMY! OF COURSE THAT'S LAME! THEY JUST DEALT WITH THAT!

Well technically they didn't. They were busy not existing, being elsewhere, and... um... Dr. P.

Ah, yes. Every time Eggman went "Smash them all!" I thought, "Okay!"

Also, smock, smock, smock, smock, smock.

Progress Report on Stage 7:

About 27% written. Might be more, might be less, depends on how much dialogue I put in and how far I go into detail. Thank goodness for YouTube and the various playthroughs to get a basis for the overall chapter structure.
