"LOOSE?! What do you mean by LOOSE?!" Olly shouted.
"It MEANS that I don't know where he is!" Mr.L yelled back, "I've been on the run from those D-Men for years! If they take you, me, or your sister back to the Underwhere then Super Dimentio dies!"
"Is that why those creatures were chasing us?" Olivia asked.
"Yup."
"From what you said, Super Dimentio is a being with powers strong enough to OBLITERATE REALITY!!! AND HE'S LOOSE?!?!" Olly repeated.
"Which is WHY I'm trying to find him!" Mr.L retorted, "By using you two!"
Olly and Olivia blinked in confusion.
"Us?" Olivia asked.
"How could we help?" Olly questioned.
"Because you two are from him, you should be able to sense him, or something." Mr.L stated, "I don't know, Dimentio is usually the one with the plan..."
They all stood in silence.
"Well... Maybe Mario could help!" Olivia suggested.
"NO!" Mr.L and Olly exclaimed.
"Why not?" Olivia asked, "Luigi is there too! They can both point us in the right direction!"
Mr.L sighed.
"Ms.OrigamiGirl has a point..." Mr.L muttered.
"Very well, I shall do it for you, Olivia," Olly replied.
"Yay!" Olivia exclaimed.
The three trekked all the way to the Mario brother's home. Mr.L knocked on the door and was greeted by Mario this time.
" What is it now?" Mario asked.
"Hi, Mario!" Olivia said, "Can we please have a talk? We want to try and get some information."
Mario sighed again as he gestured for them to come inside.
After they were all seated, they began to discuss.
"I'm so glad that you three are okay!" Luigi exclaimed, "What did you guys come to talk about?"

"Super Dimentio," Olly stated.
Mario spit out a drink he was having and Luigi paled.
"S-S-Super Dimentio?!" Luigi repeated.
Olly nodded.
"Could have said it gentler..." Mr.L muttered.
"Why do you want to go looking for that crazy clown?!" Mario exclaimed.
Mr.L immediately stood from his seat.
"Don't you DARE talk about him like that!" Mr.L shouted.
"Oh yeah, I forgot that you were his brainwashed slave." Mario scoffed.
Mr.L, now red in the face, tried to lunge at Mario only to be held back by Luigi.
"Mario!" Luigi exclaimed, "Apologize!"
"Um... What's wrong?" Olivia asked.
"Mr.L, um... has a thing for Dimentio," Luigi murmured.
Olivia nodded as Luigi eventually got Mr.L to calm down.
"Now. Could any of you please spare us some information on where he could be?" Olly asked.
"Once you explain what you're roping us into," Mario stated.
~5 Minutes of Explaining Later~
Mario sat, pale-faced, while Luigi struggled to keep consciousness.
"H-he's just out there somewhere?!" Luigi stammered.
"Yeah." Mr.L replied.
"A-and you two are MADE from his paper?!" Luigi exclaimed.
Olly and Olivia nodded.
"Wow... okay..." Luigi murmured.
Mario leaned forward on his chair.
"So... you all want to FIND him?" Mario asked.
"Yes. I wish to know the man my paper is from." Olly stated.
Olivia coughed.
"OUR paper." Olly corrected.
Mario nodded and sighed.
"I myself don't have any information, but... I know two people who might." Mario replied.
"Who?" Olly and Olivia asked.
"Lord Blumiere and Lady Timpani." Luigi finished.
---------------
Olly, Olivia, and Mr.L waved goodbye to the Mario brothers and started off towards the woods, return pipe in hand.
"Who are Lord Blumiere and Lady Timpani?" Olivia asked.

"Two people directly involved in the Ultimate Show." Mr.L stated.
He placed the return pipe on the floor.
"Hop in. We're going to Flipside." Mr.L told them.
"The place in-between dimensions?" Olly questioned.
"Yes." Mr.L replied.
"This feels like an old war site tour more than a search mission, haha," Olly commented, "Not that I am complaining."
"Are you going or not?" Mr.L asked.
Olly harumphed and floated down the pipe, followed closely by Olivia and then Mr.L. The pipe retracted into the ground.
The group of D-Men watched from atop the hill.
"They're going after those other two who were supposed to be dead! Oh, Jaydes would forget all about our punishment if we brought in all six!" One D-Man exclaimed.
"You know... that's not half a bad idea..." Another muttered.
The small group ushered a round of agreement. The, what appeared to be, leader of the troop gave a harumph.
"We'll cut them off. Get the two and then the other three, followed by that giant freak." The leader said, "Let's teleport to Flipside's outskirts."
The troop flipped away.
---------------
Mr.L, Olly, and Olivia arrived at Flipside Tower. Olivia took in their surroundings.
"Wow... This place is so pretty!" Olivia exclaimed.
"A little too bright for my taste." Olly replied.
"Let's just stay focused." Mr.L stated.
They followed Mr.L down the elevator to Flipside's first floor.
"Okay. From what I heard, Blumiere and Timpani should be towards the outskirts." Mr.L told them.
"Wait, how do you know that?" Olly asked.
"I'm a part-time thief. It's my job to know that kinda thing." Mr.L replied.
They started walking towards the outskirts of the town, many Flipside residents waving at them, and Olivia being the only one waving back.
"So... What does Lord Blumiere and Lady Timpani look like?" Olly asked, "And how are they to help us?"
Mr.L chuckled.
"Let's just say that I should be the one to tell them you're from Dimentio's paper." Mr.L said, "And as for what they look like..."
The three of them flinched at the sound of a scream.
"You're about to find out." Mr.L finished.
