Introduction: The evil Mani Mani statue has come back together... it wants it's revenge against Ness and his friends...

-----------------------SCENE 1------------------------------
::::::::::::::::::::::The Dream:::::::::::::::::::::::::::::

**Ness and his friends wake up in the Monotoli Grand Hotel in Fourside**

Paula: *yawn* Ness, I just had the strangest dream. The Mani Mani statue kept saying, "Beware, beware the place that you have been too, but was not real, and beware, beware..."

Jeff: I wonder what that place is?

Poo: I don't know.

Ness: Hmmm.. what a strange dream. Oh well, we still need some way to get to a place where we can fight Giygas. Giygas is it's name, isn't it?

Paula: Something like that.

**Our heroes pay the hotel, then Ness calls his dad, then they walk out**

**The photo man runs up to them, looking very frightened**

Photo man: Please, meet me at Jackie's Café.

**He runs off, heading towards Jackie's Café, which was just around the corner**

Jeff: I wonder what he wants...

Ness: Lets go check it out.

-----------------------SCENE 2------------------------------
::::::::::::::::::::Jackie's Café:::::::::::::::::::::::::::

Paula: Okay, Mister Photo Man... WHAT DO YOU WANT?!

Photo Man: Here, lets go into the warehouse, for more privacy, of course.

Jeff: Okay.

**Ness, his friends, and the photo man walk into the warehouse behind Jackie's Café**

Photo Man: HA! Tricked ya!

Ness: WHAT?

**Though Ness and his friends don't realize it, the Photo Man reverts to his true form, the Mani Mani statue**

**Colors seem to reverse, and neon colors brighten the wall**

Paula: What is this place?

Poo: I don't remember this place...

Jeff: I seem to remember this place...

Ness: Isn't this the place where 'yes' is 'no' and 'no' is 'yes'?

**Slight pause**

Ness and Jeff: MOONSIDE!

<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<PART 2>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>

Paula: So thats what you two were muttering about the day after you rescued me.

Jeff: Yup.

Ness: We should be careful, Poo, Paula. It was really creapy the last time we were here.

Paula: Okay.

Poo: O--

???: Hello... and Goodbye!

***Poo disappears after the guy says Hello... and Goodbye! But Ness and his friends are still there.***

Jeff: WHAT?! Where is Poo?

Paula: Ummm....

Ness: Can someone explain to me what just happened?

Jeff: Well--

Paula: Now I get it! You know I said the dream warned about the place that was not real, but we have been there before...
Well... I think this is that place. It also explains why the Mani Mani statue was saying it.

Ness: Oh! So, Jeff is there any gadget of yours that could figure out what happened to Poo?

**Slight pause**

Ness: Jeff?

***Paula a little frightened says: Ness, look behind you...

**Ness turns around**

Ness: Jeff?!

Jeff: Help me!

**Jeff disappears**

???: Hello... and Goodbye!

Paula: Not again!

Ness: Why is this happening? First Mr. Starstorm, now the person that could be the only one to make something
to get us out of here!

Paula: We'd better get outside and try to figure out what we can do.

-----------------------SCENE 3------------------------------
:::::::::::::::::Streets of Moonside::::::::::::::::::::::::

**Ness and Paula walk outside**

???: Hello... and Goodbye!

**Ness disappears**

Paula: NO! Ness! Umm.. WHAT AM I SUPPOSED TO DO NOW!?!?!
I suppose I have to do this myself...

**Paula sees a building that stands out... a lot.**

Paula: I guess I should try that building...

-----------------------SCENE 4------------------------------
:::::::::::::::Inside the Power Building::::::::::::::::::::

**Paula walks inside the building, figuring out that it is the power building**

***She immediatly sees Ness, Jeff, and Poo floating in some sort of dark gas**

***The Mani Mani statue appears***

Evil Mani Mani: Hello... Well, well, well... Just what I need to fulfill my revenge...

Paula: What.. do.. you mean?

Evil Mani Mani: You all are trying to defeat evil, and since you are friends with those
two geeks who destroyed me... I want to destroy you all...

Paula: Not if I can help it!

Evil Mani Mani: **evil laugh** hahahaha... really... Good-bye!

**Black gas appears around Paula and she is lifted up**

****Sinister defeat music plays****

Evil Mani Mani: HAHAHAHAAA!

Paula: No...

***Paula slowly grows unconcious...***
