Toadette and Friends.
Summary: Toadette is given the go ahead for a new television show. She is to host a new chat show airing on Friday nights. The shows name? 'Toadette and Friends' and she invites all her friends along for the ride. Questions are welcome!
Chapter one.
High up on the twelfth floor of the Mushroom Kingdom Broadcasting Station a group of generously paid executives sat around a large oak table. A meeting was in progression, a very important meeting. All ten executives had been there hours thrashing out ideas on how to improve their stations Friday night ratings.
'How about a game show? Maybe we could add a bit of danger?' A young enthusiastic exec pondered. An elderly man snorted in disgust.
'Awful idea, game shows are donewith. Boring,'
'Agreed! I do like the idea of danger though. Viewers love a bit of suspense!'
After another hour the group still hadn't figured out the answer to their problems. They had pretty much covered everything from murder mysteries, reality television and all the way through to documentaries on the relationship between the Mushroom Kingdom and Sarasaland.
'No, no no!' Bellowed a middle aged Toad. Maximus Merry sat at the end of the table watching his colleagues. The tables noise level died down and all eyes were fixed on Maximus (Who's real name by the way is Mark Smith but that was far too average a name for a heart-throb soap star)
'C'mon guys! We need something fabulous!' Maximus told them, a few faces nodded. The rest looked annoyed.
'Why are you even here? You're not exactly an executive are you?' A female Koopa enquired. Maximus waved his hand dismissively.
'I'll agree on that. I'm not one of you. However I do plough a lot of money into this sham of a station,' He responded with a sly grin.
'Only so you can keep that ridiculous soap of yours on the telly,' Muttered someone under their breath.
'Okay, so what do YOU suggest,' The female Koopa asked. Maximus grinned.
'We need an ambassador for the station, someone who is down to earth but has an actually personality! Someone with flair, a sense of fun and enthusiasm. Someone who-' They never got the hear the end of Maximus's speech. His over the top musings were cut short by a disruption outside of the room. Before anyone could utter another word the door slammed wide open and in burst a small pink Toad, followed by a breathless security guard.
'What is the meaning of this?' One of the execs asked, glaring at the girl and the security guard.
'I..*huff*..tried to..stop her *huff*...wants to...*huff*,' The security guard started to explain.
'I wanna see Mr Merry! He's like my fave actor of all time!' The girl squealed. Maximus hopped out of his chair and grinned down at his fan.
'How did you know I was here?' He asked her. Her smiled broadened.
'I'm your biggest fan! I've been dying to meet you for ageeees!'
'I see. Well here I am! Maximus Merry at your service,' He gave a little bow, the girl blushed furiously.
'Thank you! I am Toadette!' After introducing herself, Toadette glanced around the room. A sheepish smile spread across her face as she saw all the annoyed and impatient glares being cast at her.
'As fun as this is Max, we need to be getting on. Perhaps you and the girl could meet up later?' A voice spoke out. Maximus looked at the person whom the voice belonged to and then back at Toadette. An idea forming in his fabulous mind.
'I think I've found our answer folks!' A chorus of murmurs filled the room.
'This girl here! We'll make her a star! She can be our ambassador!' Maximus cried out, startling Toadette in the process.
'Me a star?'
'Yes you, your fabulously fabulous sugar!'
'And what exactly is she going to do?' The female Koopa asked. Toadette was keen to find out too.
'She is going to host her own chat show,' Maximus explained 'I know just the people to join in with this project too! Toadette are you up for this fabulous opportunity?'
Toadette didn't really need to think twice. Mr Merry had decided to make her a star and who was she to argue?
A few weeks had passed and the executives had made all the preparations for Toadettes show. All the guests had been confirmed for the first show. It had been decided that they would mostly keep the same guests week in week out with the occasional surprise guest popping in from time to time.
It was almost time for Toadette to take to the stage and she was starting to get nervous. As she sat in her dressing room staring into her mirror there was a soft tapping on the door. She called for them to enter and her nerves just vanished as her loyal boyfriend entered the room.
'Oh Toad! You came!' She giggled happily. Toad handed her a large bouquet of flowers, causing her to blush.
'Wouldn't miss it for the world!' He smiled.
'Right, I'd better go see my guests before we go one. Though I'll admit it, it does feel weird referring to them as guests when they're really my friends,' She said with a smile. Leaving Toad behind she reached the green room where her treasured guests where all sat.
'Hi guys! We all okay?' She asked. As she looked around the room she was pleased to see her friends. Mario, Luigi, Peach and Daisy were all happy to appear as regular guests on her show. Looking over into a corner she spied two people who she wasn't overly keen on having on her show. The producers had insisted on having them. They said having Wario and Waluigi on board would add an interesting perspective into the show. The real downside was how much money it took to bribe them into appearing.
Before they all had too much time to chat they were all beckoned on to the stage, ready for the show. Toadette hoped that this would be the first of many successful shows.
Okay, so the general idea is that Toadette has her own show. All good yes? Anyways, she needs a little help. She needs members of the audience to ask a few questions. I already have some in mind but it would be awesome for you guys to also have some questions. There will be a topic for each of her shows but all questions are welcome.
Toadette: Thank you! Please feel free to submit any questions via the review button! The topic for the first show will be 'Family and friendships' ^_^
