It was just a simple day in Mushroom Kingdom. People were doing their own things and getting to start their day. However, it was the start of a new month, August. Summer is over and kids had to go back to school. Parents went back to school shopping and bought everything their kids needed. High school students already knew what they would need. It wasn't a big deal for them. Although, there are brothers who went back to school shopping and they took everything. They didn't know what they were going to need. They would be new students. They are also new in town, and they had no idea what was coming for them.
"I got pencils." Luigi, Mario's brother, said.
"Good! We can ah check out then!" Mario said.
The brother checked out of the store. They had tons of bags hanging from their arms. It wasn't heavy for them which was a good thing. They put all the bags in their car, and Mario got in the drivers seat. Luigi followed behind and he shut the door. Mario started the car and looked in the rear view mirror to make sure no other cars where coming his way.
"How come you always get to drive?" Luigi said as they went home.
"Because Imma older."
The brother put on some music to make things better. They couldn't believe they had just moved and they already knew their way around town. Life was treating them well. It was a good thing that it was the weekend too. They had two days to rest up. On Monday that's when things would get crazy! They would start their first day of school! They will be Sophomores in high school. The only thing that was missing was their school I.D pictured. They would have to worry about that later. They had a lot on their mind already.
Once they got home they went in their living room and dumped out all the school supplies on the floor. They spit everything in half. Mario got half the notebooks, and Luigi got the other half. They split folders, pens, highlighters, pencils, and sticky notes. They reused their old backpacks. They didn't find a reason to get new ones. They put everything in their backpack and set them by the front door.
"The only thing left is finding out what classes we have." Mario said.
The brother walked upstairs and into their room. They both shared a room. They didn't mind it all. In fact, they both liked it. They got the spend even more time together! They had bunk beds. On one bed there were red sheets and a red pillow. On the other bed there were green sheets and a green pillow... Along with a stuffed animal. It was a green monkey. That bed was Luigi's bed.
Mario got out his laptop and sat down on Luigi's bed. He went on the school website. Luigi sat down next to him and watched the screen. Mario couldn't wait till Monday, but Luigi was still having a hard time with it. He didn't want to go to new a high school. He didn't want to move, and he didn't want to make any new friends, but Mario kept telling his brother that was going to be alright because they always have each other.
"There!" Mario said.
Mario had pulled up his classes. He took out his phone (that was the color red) and took a picture of all of his classes. Mario handed Luigi the laptop and he logged in to see what classes he had. Once Luigi found out what classes he had, he wrote them down. He didn't take a picture of them even though he has the same phone as Mario, but only a different color... That color was green.
The brother's parents were at work. They always worked and they would always come home late when Mario and Luigi were fast asleep. As long as the brothers got fed and had a nice shower they would call their life perfect. The only thing that was missing was the school year. They couldn't wait for a new school and meeting new people. Everything was different on this side of town. They liked seeing new things... Well, Mario liked it better than Luigi, but who's judging. Once everything was done around the house Mario was laying on his bed with his laptop on his lap. He was looking at the school website. It was a really nice looking school.
The school was big and it looked like a castle. Mario wondered what the hallways, lockers, desk, teachers, and students were going to be like. Would they fit in or just stand out, but would standing out be a good or bad thing for the two brothers. Mario only thought of the positive things about the school, while Luigi kept finding negative things about the school.
"Monday will be fun!" Mario said.
"I'm a little excited." Luigi said.
"See! It's a new start! Enjoy it!"
"Want to walk around the neighborhood?"
Mario looked up at his brother and nodded his head. Mario shut off his laptop and they put their shoes on. The brother locked up the house before they left. Once the house was locked up they started to go a walk. The sun was out and it was really hot outside. It felt like they were in Phoenix, AZ! The summer heat was bad, but the brother didn't mind it. They were always running around getting their bodies warmed up so they were warm all the time. The cold weather never got to them either, but that's beside the point.
"All these houses are so big!" Luigi said. "They must be rich."
"Yea... I wonder if any of these people go to our new school."
Luigi shrugged the thought of people going to their school. Maybe they would make a new friend while they were out walking. Luigi checked the time and school was just getting out. It was 3 in the afternoon. Mario and Luigi both knew it was time to go back inside the house before everyone saw them. They didn't want to get trapped in any drama. Once the brothers got home they just sat around the house. They did everything they could before school started. The only thing do was wait for the first day of school...

It's the first day of school and the brothers got up bright and early. Their parents had wished them a good luck on the first day of school. They ate a well balanced breakfast. They watched TV as they ate and they made sure they looked good. Mario was wearing red for the first day of school, and Luigi wore green. It was their favorite colors so why not wear your favorite color on the first day of school!?
"Let's go!" Luigi said opening the front door.
Mario and Luigi walked to school. It wasn't that far of walk plus they could get most of their excitement out of system. Mario and Luigi could see the new school now. It was so close to them. This was really happening. Within a few more steps they would take a new journey.
"Let's do it." Mario said holding his hand out to Luigi.
Luigi slapped his hand on Mario's hand and they walked to the front door. Kids were going in and out the door. It was the first day of school and everyone was screaming and hugged their friends. Mario and Luigi walked around the hallways taking everything in. Kids were putting things in their lockers and taking to everyone they knew. The brothers went into the lunch room and sat down at a table while they waited for the first bell to ring. They were on their phones while they waited.
"This is exciting." Luigi whispered.
"You don't have to whisper." Mario laughed.
"New kids!" Yelled someone.
Mario and Luigi both looked to the right and saw a very short person. He walked over to the brothers and smiled at them. Luigi waved at the boy. The boy had to look up at the brother because he was so short, and the brothers looked down at the boy because they were taller than him.
"Welcome! I'm Toad."
"I'm Mario and this is Luigi." Mario said.
Toad walked over to Mario and sat down. Toad looked at the doors of the lunch room and waved someone down. That person sat down next to Luigi. It was a girl and Luigi got really nervous after that. He didn't know how to act with girls.
"This is Toadette." Toad said. "She's my girl."
"We can all be friends!" Toadette said with a sweet smile. "I would love to get to know you too."
"We're off to a good start. We already made some friends!" Luigi said feeling more confident about the new school.
"You'll have to meet the rest of the group later today. Maybe after school." Toad said. "We're tons of fun."
"I can already tell." Mario said.
The first bell rang and everyone got up from their seats. Mario and Toadette had first period together. It was History. Luigi had English and Toad had an off period. Toad helped Luigi find the right room. Luigi was thankful for that. English didn't seem to bad for Luigi, although he had no friends in that class... Yet.
As the day went by, Mario and Luigi didn't see each other at all! Not even down the hallway. They had the same lunch though, which was nice. Toad also had the same lunch however Toadette didn't. She had B lunch while the rest of her friends had A lunch.
"So what lunch do I have tomorrow?" Luigi asked Toad.
"You have A lunch everyday. I got A lunch every day too." Toad said looking at Luigi's classes.
"What do I have?" Mario said.
"You have A tomorrow, but B lunch on even days."
"Dang." Mario said. "Do you know who else has B lunch?"
Toad shook his head. He would find out after school. The rest of his friends must have B lunch on Mondays. Both of the brothers thought who else could be friends with Toad. Where there anyone else in his group of friends who were dating? Mario and Luigi didn't think about dating at all because they already had to much on their plates. Once lunch was over they only had four more classes.
Mario and Luigi both had 8th off so they could go home after 7th period ended. They didn't leave though. Toad and Toadette wanted them to stay after school. They would just be standing after school for a couple of minutes. Toadette wanted to decorate her locker. She always did that, and she always made Toad help her. Maybe Mario and or Luigi could help her. Soon, the school day was over the four friends went over to Toadette's locker.
"Who else is in your group of friends?" Mario said leaning on a locker.
"Let's see..." Toad began. "There's us four." He held up four fingers. "Peach, Daisy, Mario, and Mona... Am I forgetting anyone?"
"Nope, but we should warn you about Bowser. He's a senior and he does some crazy shit." Toadette said.
"Like what?"
"Well one time he set the school on fire." Toad said. "He breaths fire... For real. It's crazy!"
"Yea... He's always on Peach's back. Just because she's a blond doesn't make her dumb." Toadetee said. "She's actually really smart."
"What about Daisy?" Luigi asked.
"She's not as girly as Peach is. They're sisters though. They do everything together." Toad said. "I think you'll like them. They're really nice and sweet."
"With names like Peach and Daisy I bet they are." Mario said.
"I wonder where they were today though..." Toadette said.
"They're fine. I bet they are still on vacation." Toad said.
"Where did they go?" Mario asked.
"They went to Rainbow Road. That place is sick!"
"Oh lucky! We went there, but that was a long time ago." Luigi said.
The friends went home after a few minutes. Mario and Luigi wished they took the car, because they were so tired! Their legs hurt and their backs hurt from all the weight they were carrying. The good thing about the first day of school was that there was no homework. Mario and Luigi were so happy that they didn't have any homework. They were so tired and wanted to do nothing once they got out.
"That wasn't too bad." Mario said throwing his backpack on the ground.
"Yea... I liked it. I can't wait to met the rest of Toad's friends." Luigi said walking into the kitchen.
"They're our friends now. From what Toad said we're already friends with everyone."
"I like Toad. I wonder if he likes being so short."
Mario laughed at his brother's comment. They watched TV together and thought about what they were going to eat for dinner. They would think of something, but right now they were done thinking. School wore them out, but they couldn't stop thinking about what the other friends looked like.
This is a request by 'Sonicdude2355'. I really hope you guys like it so far. It's different from what I have written before, but I like to step outside my comfort zone.
