Back for part 2! Woo-hoo! I simply couldn't wait to start writing this, in fact, some things in this story were probably being typed before I finished uploading the first one. So, you might be able to tell what this will be about from the title, but I promise, I have some ideas. So, sit back, relax, and enjoy!
Chapter 1: Catching up…
It had been six months, nearly to the day, since the events of Bowser's last invasion. Even though there was the occasional Koopa and Goomba, the Koopa Kingdom had been virtually silent since the invasion. Surprisingly, Peach was not pregnant yet, as Mario and Peach had decided that they would wait until after the kingdoms had merged.
Wait… what? Kingdoms merging?
Yes, in the time between Bowser's invasion and now, Luigi and Daisy had become King and Queen of Sarasaland. As King Mario and King Luigi were now two of the most powerful rulers in the land, they had a large say in politics. Together, they had decided to unite Sarasaland, The Mushroom Kingdom, and a few smaller kingdoms nearby, into a single large superpower, known as the Power Star Nation.
This had been stressful on our favorite Italian plumbers, and today had marked the beginning of a new nation. This called for a party, that only the highest in the land were invited to.
Back to the characters…
Mario was rushing down a hallway in the castle, preparing for the celebration later tonight. He began to order food and drinks at a rather large table, at one end of the main foyer. Finally, he put the finishing touches on his work.
Mario took a deep breath, "There, done!" he said, finally finishing his job. Mario then checked the clock, "Perfect, just about an hour before guests arrive." he said, now searching for Peach.
Mario eventually found Peach, just as she was finishing her set up. "Hello my sweet Peach!" Mario said, walking up to Peach, and giving her a loving peck on the cheek.
"Hello Mario!" Peach said with a smile, "Finished I see?" she asked.
"You bet, I even put a couple finishing touches on it, just for shits and giggles." Mario said.
Peach giggled lightly at Mario's remark, "You do know Luigi and Daisy are supposed to show up early." Peach said, "I scheduled it that way, because I know you don't see your brother as often any more."
This made Mario excited, while he was extraordinarily happy living with Peach, it was true that he missed his brother, as it was rare that they had personal time together after they became royalty.
"So when are they gonna show up?" Mario asked excitedly.
"They should be here any..." Peach was interrupted by a door being knocked on, "Minute..." she finished.
Mario quickly sprinted to the door, and opened it. He greeted Luigi and Daisy, "Hey guys, hope the trip wasn't too rough!" Mario said as he welcomed them inside.
"No, it was absolutely fine!" Daisy said as she walked inside.
"Daisy, Peach is upstairs if you would like to see her." Mario said
"Of course!" Daisy said, "I think I'll go see her, it's been far too long!" Daisy said as she walked upstairs.
This left Mario and Luigi alone, "So bro, how's life, its been a while, and you were pretty quiet coming in." Mario said, giving his brother a hug.
Luigi hugged back, "Oh, life is amazing Mario, and I have some big news I gotta share with you!" Luigi exclaimed.
Mario smiled, "Big news?" he questioned, "Let's go sit down, and you can tell me what's up." Mario said, leading Luigi to his living area. Mario sat down, "So Luigi, what's happening?" he asked.
Luigi sat down too, "Oh not all too much, it's just mind boggling that everything changed so fast." Luigi said, "It's like, all the sudden, one minute, we're off fighting Bowser, next minute, we're both married to royalty."
"I know, crazy chain of events, isn't it?" Mario asked.
"Sure is..." Luigi said, taking a breath.
"So anyway, what's this big news you've got going on?" Mario asked.
Luigi obviously became nervous, "Well Mario, Daisy is uh… kinda…" Luigi dragged on, "Pregnant…" Luigi said quietly.
Mario was pleasantly surprised at the news, "Wow, good for you Luigi!" Mario said, beginning to clap for his brother.
"She's not that far along, only a month or so..." Luigi said.
"Hey, a kid is a kid!" Mario said, walking over to his brother, and giving him a friendly pat on the back.
Then, from the other room, Mario and Luigi heard the girls calling, "Mario, Luigi, where are you guys?" the voices called.
"Coming!" The brothers, yelled simultaneously.
Mario and Luigi walked out in the main foyer, and Peach and Daisy were there.
"The guests will be arriving soon, we have to be ready to greet them!" Peach said to Mario.
"Sounds good!" Mario said, unlocking the door, "I've got the door, Peach, Luigi, Daisy, you guys put the finishing touches up, and I'll join you in a second."
"Alright, sounds like a plan!" The others said as they walked away.
Mario then proceeded to take a breath, and then open the door. Outside, there was a line of people, they were all speaking to one another, and as soon as Mario opened the door, they all went quiet.
Mario cleared his throat, "Attention, welcome to my humble abode." Mario began, "We gather here today to discuss and celebrate the formation of the new kingdom, Power Star Nation, so welcome, please treat my belongings, and each other, with care, and be sure to exit the castle by midnight." Mario said, "Now, let's celebrate!"
Mario began to greet the royalty from kingdoms near the Mushroom Kingdom. Some of the princes he had recognized from that fateful week, many months ago.
After everybody had entered the castle, classy music began to play, and people began to speak very lightheartedly to each other. Everything was going well, people were talking, drinking, and having fun.
Later into the night, Mario checked the clock, it was nearly 10:00 PM, and he had lost track of Luigi, Daisy, and Peach. So, he began to search through the crowd of people, and eventually, he found Luigi.
"Hey bro, sorry I didn't come after you, there was so many people, I just lost track of you all," Mario said.
"Eh, it's not a big deal, there is a lot of people here, so don't worry." Luigi replied.
Mario and Luigi began to converse for a small while, and then a question popped into Mario's mind, "Hey, have you seen the girls anywhere?" Mario asked.
Luigi thought for a moment, "Now that you mention it, I haven't seen either of them since we left you to greet everybody."
Mario thought carefully, "Hmm, odd..." he said, "I think I'm gonna go search for them, you never know what could happen..." Mario said, waving goodbye to his brother.
Mario began to trek through the castle, searching for the girls. Eventually, Mario caught a hint of an orange, frilly dress, in the middle of a crowd. He approached it, and sure enough, it was Daisy. She was being rather antisocial, only occasionally making small talk with others, but mostly keeping to herself.
Mario waited until one of her small conversations was over, and then approached her, "Hey Daisy, how's a going?" Mario asked.
Daisy quickly turned to face Mario, "Oh you startled me, sorry Mario!" she said with a giggle, "I'm well, how about yourself?" Daisy asked.
"Oh I'm OK, I was just looking for you and Peach, I haven't sen either one of you all night!" Mario exclaimed, attempting to make his voice heard through the rather loud crowd.
Daisy thought, "Peach?" she asked, "Haven't seen her since the start of this whole thing..." Daisy said, as she though further. "Have you looked in your room yet?" Daisy asked.
Mario almost slapped himself, such a foolish mistake, how did he not think to check there? "No I haven't, stupid me should have checked there earlier." Mario said, "Well, I shall see you later!" Mario said, waving Daisy goodbye.
Mario began to push his way through the crowd of people, eventually making his way to the stairs in the main foyer, which were off limits for guests. Mario made his way up the stairs, towards his room. At first he thought he heard something, so he listened closer, sure enough, he heard rustling in there. He couldn't tell what, as they had a sound absorbent walls in their room, but he could tell there was something going on.
Mario cracked the door open just a bit, and listened. "Bitch ass prince!" he heard Peach's voice, "Get your filthy ass hands off of me, this instant!"
Those words were all Mario needed. He flung the door open with such great speed, the hinges almost broke. What he saw next, instantly made him furious.
Inside the room, there was a prince, but not just any prince, this was the one Mario had beaten the shit out of, a little more than nine months ago. This prince much bigger than Peach, and easily overpowered her. Peach was half naked, just her panties, and a mostly torn off dress remained to protect her from the prince. The prince was being very rough with Peach, and she was attempting to pull her arms and legs away, in hopes of landing a slap, kick, or punch. However, the prince would just overpower her most of the time.
As soon as the door flung open, Peach's eyes locked with Mario's, "Mario, help me!" Peach screamed.
The prince looked back, and saw Mario, he only smiled, "Hey plumber, long time no see?" he said in an evil voice, "By the way, your wife has a nice set..." he said as he roughly groped one of Peach's breasts.
"MARIO!" Peach cried, "Please help me, you know I would never do this too you, I love you with all my heart and soul!" she screamed through her tears.
Mario quickly leaped into action, grabbing the prince by the throat with great force. "Get the fuck off my wife..." Mario spoke with fury.
"Nice try little bitch..." the prince said, quickly picking Mario up, and tossing him to the side. "You do not touch me…" The prince roared.
Mario stood back up, and brushed himself off, "I think it's the other way around..." Mario said as he charged at the prince.
The prince attempted to grab Mario, but Mario's height, paired with his quick speed, made the prince miss. Mario quickly ran behind the prince, jumped onto him with great force, knocking the prince over, and put the prince into a powerful headlock.
Mario continued to tighten his grip on the princes neck, "Say uncle..." Mario said.
The prince laughed, "Never." he said, in a barely audible, horse voice.
"You asked for it..." Mario said, continuing to hold the princes throat.
The prince soon passed out, and Mario took his limp body, and brought it downstairs, not caring who saw. He opened the main doors, threw the prince outside, and locked him out. He then proceeded to walk back upstairs to Peach.
Mario sprinted into the room, closing the door behind him, and tightly embraced Peach, "Peach, I'm so sorry, are you OK, did he hurt you?" Mario asked to his still half naked wife.
Peach responded with a very tight hug back, and many, many tears, "Yes… I'm OK," Peach said through her tears, "Nothing happened, but he was about to go further..." she said. "Mario, please know, I would never do anything like this to you, I swear, until death do us part."
"Don't worry Peach, I believe you, I know you wouldn't do this to me, I wouldn't do this to you either." Mario said.
Mario then heard a knock on his door, "Should I answer that?" Mario asked Peach.
Peach covered her top half under the blankets on her bed, "Please do Mario."
Mario opened the door, and was pleasantly surprised to find Luigi and Daisy waiting. "Hey bro, what uh… what just happened?" Luigi asked.
Peach, seeing who it was, said, "Please, come in, both of you."
Daisy ran in to comfort the teary eyed Queen, and Luigi went, and sat in a chair, followed by Mario.
"So, what happened?" Luigi asked Mario.
"Well, I couldn't find Peach, so Daisy told me to come check here, since she might be in our room, and I walked in to that one prince, remember, the one who wanted to fight me?" Mario asked "And uh, well he was trying to… well… rape her…" Mario said, looking at Peach.
"Oh my god..." Luigi said "That's so terrible, we need to get that fucker in prison ASAP!"
"Agreed, but we should send everybody home, there has been enough issues tonight." Mario said, "You guys are welcome to stay the night, but it would mean the world to me if you could get everybody going."
"Sure thing bro!" Luigi said, "Hey Daisy, let's leave these guys alone for a bit, we can go dismiss everybody."
Daisy stood up, and gave Peach one more embrace, "OK Peach, Mario, I'll see you in the morning, we'll file a case against that son of bitch."
"Sounds good, see you guys in the morning." Mario said as Luigi and Daisy left the room.
Mario then went to their bed and laid down next to Peach, embracing her tightly, "Peach, I'll always be there for you, I promise…" Mario whispered to her.
Even through Peach's emotions, this made her smile, and she cuddled Mario back, "Mario, thank you, I love you so much, I can't even describe it…" she replied.
Mario smiled, and replied with a passionate kiss, "I love you too Peach, more than you could ever imagine." he said.
The two lovers pulled each other close, and fell asleep in each others arms. Even with the events of the night, Peach felt safe and secure in Mario's arms.
Well, how was that for chapter 1? I hope you all enjoyed, and I will see you in the next one!
