To Mario, this was just an average and ordinary day. To everyone else, this day would be a backbreaking and stressful one. It all started when…

"Mario, Mario!" shouted Toad as he ran towards Mario's house. Mario stepped out onto the porch and squinted into the afternoon sun. Toad was running full force now, clutching a piece of paper.

"Mario, I have a letter for you from Princess Toadstool!"

"Let's have it then," said Mario

Toad tried to slow down as he neared the porch, but could not stop. He shouted to Mario, "LOOK OUT!"

The command was one minute to late, though. He smashed head on into Mario.

"Mama Mia!" was Mario's only reply.

---------------------------------------------- 3 hours later----------------------------------------

"Maaaariooooo"

Mario could hear distant voices, as if from a far off land.

"MARIO, WAKE UP YOU LAZY BUTTHEAD!"

Mario woke up, realizing right away where he was. Not at the Mushroom Kingdom.

"Oh, my head. Oh my god, where am I!" Asked Mario.

"You are in the Hospital of the Mushroom Kingdom, an I am Toad, t-o-a-d."

Mario knew at once why he did not know where he was. He had never been to the hospital before. This was a surprise to him.

"What happened?" asked Mario.

"Well, when I crashed into you, you went flying backwards and crashed through the wall. I tried to wake you up, but you wouldn't budge," replied Toad.

Mario jumped out of the hospital bed and yelled, "I HAVE TO GET TO PRINCESS PEACH!"

He bolted out the window and down 5 stories. Just before he hit the ground, Mario grabbed onto a tree branch and swung to safety.
