"Here we go!" Mario cried out enthusiastically as he emerged from the other end of the warp pipe he'd just entered.
But as he leaped from the top of the warp pipe into action, his enthusiasm turned to confusion. This didn't look like any world he'd ever seen before. He looked from the purple waves crashing against the beach to the purple sky above him.
He heard the familiar sound of warp pipe travel behind him.
"Umm, bro," he said, looking over his shoulder at Luigi as he emerged. "I don't think we're in the Mushroom Kingdom anymore."
Luigi dropped from the top of the warp pipe and looked at his surroundings with even more trepidation than his shorter but more stalwart brother.
"This doesn't look like the right place," he said. "Let's go back."
Mario nodded and hopped back on top of the warp pipe, only to find he could no longer climb down it.
"Looks like we're going to have to find another way out."
Now Luigi was shaking and constantly looking over his shoulder.
"I don't like it here, Mario. It's spooky."
Mario gave his sibling a reassuring pat on the shoulder. Luigi was easily spooked, perhaps more than anyone else Mario knew. But he knew his brother better than anyone, and when the chips were down, Luigi had more courage than anyone gave him credit for.
"No spookier than anything we've seen before," Mario said, trying to convince himself as much as his brother. "Let's take a look around and try to figure out where we are."
