Meteorite Piece

The meteorite piece, also referred to as the rock pendant or generically just meteorite, is a fragment of the meteor that caused the extinction of the dinosaurs.
== History ==
It is the same meteor that killed the dinosaurs that separates Earth into two parallel dimensions; Earth and Dinohattan. While dinosaurs became extinct on Earth, they prospered and evolved into intelligent beings in the Dinohattan dimension. Unfortunately, said dimension has poor resources and is comprised of almost entirely a barren, desolate desert. President Koopa gained control of the dimension through a military coup, with the intent of merging the two worlds. To do this, it is necessary to use a piece of the meteor that began the parallel shift to re-combine both worlds.
Daisy's mother, wife to Dinohattan's overthrown King, escaped to Earth carrying her unhatched child in an egg (as she is of reptile origin) and a piece of the aforementioned meteor in a pod. She left said pod outside the steps of a church, where a group of nuns took her in. The elderly nun removed the meteorite piece from the pod, causing the pod to open and reveal the egg inside. The egg hatched revealing Daisy. The elderly nun held the meteorite piece up, which gleamed.
Twenty years later, Daisy now bore the meteorite piece as a necklace as it is her only known connection she has to her maternal mother. She revealed during dinner with Mario, Luigi and Daniella that she had never removed it as it is all she has of her unknown past life. After dinner, Iggy and Spike kidnapped Daisy to take her to Dinohattan. In an attempt to rescue her, Luigi snatched the meteorite necklace off her neck. In Koopa's Tower, President Koopa was informed by Spike and Iggy that Mario and Luigi had the meteorite piece, which he then demanded them that they track them down. Upon Mario and Luigi's arrival in the Dinohattan dimension, an old lady robs Luigi of the necklace before said lady is robbed by Big Bertha.
Later on, President Koopa threatened the imprisoned Mario and Luigi with de-evolution if they did not inform him where the meteorite piece is. The brothers managed to escape to Koopahari Desert, where they met a reformed Iggy and Spike who explained the true purpose of the meteor necklace. Mario agreed to a dance with Big Bertha at the Boom Boom Bar to get close enough to her to snatch the meteorite necklace off her neck. Lena manages to take it from Mario's possession during Mario and Luigi's escape from the Boom Boom Bar. Lena, working independently from Koopa, went to the meteorite chamber, a large contraption created by Koopa for the sole purpose of merging the dimensions. While this was occurring, Mario managed to distract President Koopa and fight him by making him think he currently had the meteorite necklace in his possession (in reality, it was a shoestring).
Lena inserted the meteorite piece into the chamber and Daisy and Luigi arrived in time to witness it. Though the insertion was successful, the power and energy generated by the meteorite killed her and Daisy realized she is the only one that can withstand the powers of the meteorite without dying and that is why Koopa needed her specifically. The dimensions are briefly combined into one, before Luigi and Daisy removed the meteorite piece once more.
