I'm back! After a long while of waiting, I figured I would finally upload another story. Ever since my Regular Show fanfic, I was taking a creative writing class, which left me with little mental fuel for typing anything (we had to write a novel for National Novel Writing Month!). But, the wait is over, so to celebrate, I figured I would do another Nintendo fic, this time with good old Mario. Enjoy!
It is now the 85th anniversary of the founding of the Mushroom Kingdom. The whole kingdom has gathered at Toad Town for a big, week-long celebration of the event. There will be banquets, Kart races, athletic events, Mario Party-style competitions, arcades, a carnival, magic shows, circus performances, fireworks at night, and much more. But the hard part, as always, is getting everything prepared.
The Mario Bros. spent half of the day before the celebration measuring and bringing over the pipes that would be needed for the "Rescue the Princess" activity for the citizens who were ambitious to attempt to do what Mario has done many times to rescue Princess Peach Toadstool (in the style of the NES Super Mario Bros.), as well as the Kart races, Party minigames, and other purposes. The rest of the toad workers were busy setting up large tents and stages and tables and souvenir kiosks and whatnot.
"Hey-a, Mario!" Luigi said, hauling a long green pipe on his back, "Can-a you please help-a me?"
As he whistled his franchise's highly memorable theme song, Mario was busy trying to make himself look nice, "Not-a now, Luigi. Make due-a without-a me!" he said, adjusting his suspenders.
"Ugh…" Luigi groaned to himself, "Why does-a he get off-a so easy while Luigi does-a all the work-a?"
Mario was wanting to make a big impression on the Princess, as always, though he did not already know that, despite him being a mere plumber bearing a cap and a mustache and with no royal status, she appreciated him simply for who he was, and the distances he has gone for her. As anybody would know, Mario was the one who had saved Princess Peach from any terrible fate that could await her whenever she was kidnapped by the ruler of the Dark Lands, King Bowser Koopa, a monstrous hybrid of a Koopa-Troopa and dragon, who would stop at nothing to make Peach his Queen. His plans were always foiled, though, when Mario would cross the Mushroom Kingdom to the Dark Lands, traverse the perilous castle, and ultimately whip Bowser out of the picture.
As the years past, kidnap after kidnap, Mario and the Princess have grown their relationship beyond the friendship zone, and are starting on what they hope to be an enjoyable romance. Mario hopes that this anniversary of the Kingdom would be an opportunity to take this whole thing to the next level.

Princess Peach was up on the balcony outside of her bedroom, watching in delight as the construction went on down below. Another year the Kingdom has existed, another year they could have a party to enjoy. Peach was a kind-hearted princess who would always try to keep her kingdom in order, and her people safe. Only in her absence due to being kidnapped by Bowser did she ever fear the thought of what could ever happen to her kingdom. Bowser could end up putting the citizens under his tyranny, and rule over more land, making him virtually unstoppable.
Though her nightmares and insomnia revolving around her kidnaps have subsided after the first few times it happened, Peach still held a strong fear against the Koopa King. Hopefully, though, this anniversary party could help relieve her of some anxiety. Peach absolutely loved parties. Sure enough, all will be well, and the guards are able to be more alert more any foreign activity.
It was a little after dusk that the construction was finished, and within the next day, the party would begin, lasting for seven days.
Yeah, crappy prologue. Too bland. I just didn't know what to put down. I'm still burned out from my writing class. Anyways, I'll have the first chapter coming your way. Hopefully it's better, but if it needs some improvements, let me know. Keep holding on…
