Story
The Thousand Year Play
The story began when The Yoshi Bodyguards went to a play of Paper Mario: The Thousand Year Door at Toad Town. During the play, however, at the part where Mario battled against the Shadow Sirens, two Shadow Creatures suddenly appeared, interrupting the play. Beldam, Marilyn and Doopliss followed them, while Vivian simply disappeared. Suddenly a Goomba Newscaster appeared, giving everyone there the news that a giant battleship had just appeared out at sea. A screen came down, showing it, and then the screen also showed the two shadow creatures along with Beldam, Marilyn and Doopliss appearing on it. Oshy then came up on stage, explaining that he had been doing some research and recognized that battleship to be Atlantis. Apparently, Atlantis was in fact a battleship, not a city. The shadow creatures on Atlantis disappeared, and soon after the helicopter that had been filming the battleship was shot down. The YB decided to return to their HQ for the time, as no one was sure what was going to happen.
The Shadows Attack
Meanwhile, in a mysterious location, Beldam, Marilyn and Doopliss were explainin the location of Vivian to someone. That someone was not very happy.
Back at the YB HQ, the next day the news reported that Atlantis had suddenly flown away from its previous spot. Nothing else happened the rest of the day, but the followin day, suddenly everyone had a rude awakening when Peach's Castle was attacked! Peach was abducted, and although Top complained that it wasn't their problemm, it soon was when Yoshi's Island began to be attacked. Before going, however, they realized the Crystal Stars had been destroyed earlier in the Dark Ages when the old YB HQ was destroyed.
When the YB arrived at Yoshi's Island, they saw Beldam, Marilyn and Doopliss. After spying on them for a bit, they found out they were lookin for Vivian. Oshy suggested that she might be at Twilight Town, and so they hurried off to Twilight Town. At first, they couldn't find Vivian, but then she appeared from right under Top's feet. Koop fell in love with her. Beldam, Marilyn and Doopliss then appeared out of nowhere and a short battle began.
The battle suddenly ended when Beldam, Marilyn and Doopliss were torched with fire. Out of the shadows then came a shadow creature who introduced himself as Noshum. It would seem that he was a high-ranked shadow creature from the Shadow Dimension, but when he found out from Vivian that she wasn't going to be helping the Shadow Monarchy, he agreed to help them defeat the Shadow King. It was revealed that the Shadow King and Queen took over the Shadow dimension over 1000 years ago, and then the Shadow Queen went to Star World to try and invade it. When the Crystal Stars were destroyed, a portal opening to Star World was made in Atlantis, and the Shadow King learned of the Shadow Queen's defeat, and so they prepared to take over Star World.
And then another surprise appeared in the form of... KOOP'S PAPA! Er, Grodus! And the X-Nauts! Well, it was only Grodus' head. Grodus explained that he wanted revenge on the Shadow Creatures for turning him into just a head. Sneezier made the mistake of promising Grodus a new body if he helped them out, and so a deal was struck. Unfortunately, then a missile came heading straight for them.
Invading the Shadow
Apparently, the YB forgot all about Beldam, Marilyn and Doopliss, so they had escaped and warned the other shadow creatures about what was going on.
