Welcome to Madz and Starlow 8, everyone! If you can't handle death and maybe some blood, turn back now. This is based on Whodunnit, a show that was on ABC (for anyone who doesn't know, ABC = American Broadcast Channel). This show, which appeared in the summer of 2013, is a murder mystery game show where 13 people go to a mansion and get killed, one by one. Please, no suggestions on who gets killed or not, but you can say who you want to get killed. By the way, characters won't really die, but enjoy!
Madz was watching TV with Starlow, who was enjoying Madz petting her. They were watching a certain anime where people battle and charge their power-ups for long periods of time.
"Your power level, what is it?" asked one guy on the TV.
"My power level…" the other person answered, "…it's over 9000!"
"What?! Over 9000?!" he exclaimed.
"That's also the number of episodes it takes to charge your power-ups!" replied Starlow.
They both laughed about how funny the comment was, until Fawful came in.
"Are you having the making fun of TV shows again?" asked Fawful.
"Yes, Dr. Toadley is helping out on a special event, so his clinic is closed!" answered Madz, who was a little upset.
"That means we might have some free time to watch Mushroom Ball Z and make fun of it," added Starlow.
Fawful sighed and sat on the couch. "Midbus is also doing the helping, so if we had the doing of…how long will this power-up have the charging?"
"I don't know, maybe a while…"
Starlow was interrupted by loud squawks from the counter. Fawful ran over to the counter to find Birdley, who sat on the cash register. Tied to his talon with a red ribbon was a rolled up letter that looked like it was somewhat old. Fawful grabbed the bird with his left arm and untied the ribbon with the other, making the letter drop to the floor. When he let go, Birdley hovered in the air and stared at him.
"FYI! FYI! Read the letter!"
"You aren't the Great Cackletta, so no ordering! I have fury!"
Fawful tried to slap the bird with his left hand, but he kept on avoiding it. He safely flew away from him, making him laugh with some squawks. Madz waddled to the letter and picked it up. Madz went up to the counter, where Starlow flew to her and they all looked at the letter.
Dear People in the Mushroom Kingdom,
Since one member of your family is old enough, I have no choice but to put you on a game show about survival. Of course, you guys have your laws, but our way is legal. You will be selected from our choice of shows from a questionnaire. The choices will make us see what you will be perfect for. I hope you survive, hahaha…
Your last letter from,
Unknown
On the bottom of the letter were some questions that they had to answer. Fawful remembered what was going to happen.
"Fawful has the remembering of last year…" he remembered.
Madz was running away from arrows shot from a bow and arrow. Pauline was shooting them, since she got some bow and arrow training after breaking up with Mario. She was on a branch of a tree, carefully aiming, but missing.
"I shouldn't have done sickness for something I love the most! I should have said my life!"
Madz screamed as she was running for her life. Pauline didn't seem to care because she had bad memories with animals like apes.
"I remember that time, and I will never join the Hunter Games again!" yelled Madz.
"Well, at least you're the being of a penguin, and you had the getting rid of your fear," answered Fawful.
They all shrugged and stared at the questions. Fawful took a pen that was on the counter and gave it to Madz. Fortunately, she was taught how to write a long time ago.
"Question one," read Starlow, "If you were shrunken to the size of a card, what would you do?"
"Hmmm…that's a tough one…maybe go into someone's body and meet viruses!"
"And have the beating of them with your Miracle Cure power? I have chortles! Fawful may get the power and rule the…"
Madz and Starlow stared at him with surprised expressions. Fawful forgot he promised not to do bad things anymore, so he stopped talking and calmed down.
"Madz, just write down your answer," said Starlow calmly.
She wrote the answer to the question down quickly. Starlow read the next question.
"Question two, if you had to write a story about something, what would it be about?"
They all glanced at each other and answered differently.
"Fawful's life!" yelled Fawful.
"The stars!" answered Starlow at the same time.
"Sick people!" exclaimed Madz at the same time as both.
They looked at each other with confusion again, so they stayed silent. Madz decided to speak up.
"What about someone named Fawful, a star of a show, who gets sick?"
They all agreed, so Madz wrote the answer to question number two. Knowing that the questions were different this year than last year, they spotted there were only three questions. Starlow again read the last one.
"Question three, what is your weapon of choice? It must be only one,"
"Only one? The being of the headgear, of course!"
Madz was worried about what this answer could lead to. The Hunter Games put her life in danger, and she was lucky to survive. However, using technology would really make someone seem frail, which Fawful was. They had to seem tough, or people will make fun of them.
"Ummm, let's do bow and arrow!" responded Madz with worry, but she tried to hide it.
Before Fawful could yell at her, she scribbled the words down. She rolled the paper back up carefully and placed it on the counter.
"I have fury!" he yelled. Starlow knew something was wrong, so she went a bit closer to Madz.
"What's wrong?" she whispered.
"If we don't seem tough, they might think we're weak. Besides, the Mario Bros. think the headgear is a piece of cake,"
He took deep breathes to calm down. When he was done, he did his usual, toothy smile.
"Madz, have the sending this to Birdley," he ordered.
Madz put the pen down and took the letter. She flew away to catch Birdley. With concern, Starlow looked at Fawful.
"Fawful, what game show will we be on?" she asked.
"Ummm, I don't have knowing…" he replied.
That's the end of the first chapter! The second chapter is coming soon, unless it's already here. This Madz and Starlow is a bit darker than the rest, so a T rating is necessary. Because of that, I will do Madz and Starlow 9 early, or the mystery one! If you can guess the mystery one, I'll do it early! Here are some hints:
1. A new OC will come.
2. Remember the fact Starlow's a girl.
3. The plot can happen in real life, but in a different way.
Can you guess it? Don't give up, I'm giving you a chance to summon the mystery one! You can guess it, because it's not too out of the box.
