Battle of the Nintendo All Stars
Chapter One: An Invitation
It was a warm an quiet day in a place called Mushroom Kingdom, where Mario, Luigi, Peach, Yoshi, and Toad decided to eat lunch on the Princess's deck. Everyone was enjoying themselves, for the mushroom kingdom had been a quiet, humble, some may even say boring place ever since Mario's last adventure in Rogueport. So it was on this day that things were about to change for Mario once again, because all of the sudden a Paratroopa came out of nowhere and collided directly with Toad, making them both very dizzy and confused.
"Who are you?" Mario asked this strange person, for most paratroopas knew how to fly and therefore did not collide into people on a regular basis.
"My….name……is….Parakooper….," said the Parakoopa, clearly out of breath from traveling. "I was told to get these to you as soon as possible!"
"Huh?" said Peach, who took one of the many letters out of the traveler's hand and read it aloud:
Dear Master Mario,
I would like to cordially invite you to my private island on Tuesday of next week with a few of your friends and many other guests who I'm sure you will get to know. This will be a month long "vacation that I'm sure you will never forget. I will be picking you up at the Mushroom Airport at 9:00 AM on Tuesday, and I hope to see you there!
Yours Sincerely,
Master Warren Toadstool
"Well that sounds like fun, doesn't it Mario?" said Peach, clearly wanting to go on this vacation badly. "It sounds like a vacation where we will finally get to relax!"
"Yeah, I'm not so sure…I mean who is this Toadstool Guy? We don't even know anything about him or what he wants."
"He could just want to meet you and the Princess!" said Toad, also seeming as if he wanted to tag along. "She is a pretty famous and well-known person."
"Mario, don't worry about it. We'll probably end up having a great time! Not everything we do ends up in disaster," stated Luigi.
"There'll probably be tons of food there, don't you think? I mean this sounds like one big fiesta!" declared Yoshi.
It was only Mario who didn't seem sure. This could be another plan of Bowser's, he thought. Or one of Mario's many other enemies could be behind this, he thought. But the truth was that it had been over a year since his trip to Rogueport and Mario really did need a change of scenery.
"Alright, alright. We will go.
"Yes!" screamed Peach. "Alright, it says in the letter that we can bring six people. So us five and-
"Hey guys, what are you doing?" Toadette had just walked outside onto the porch, looking confused at why there was a collapsed paratroopa on the floor, for he had fainted from exhaustion.
"-And Toadette!" Announced Peach. "Ok, so we better start packing, we're leaving in four days".
"Whats going on…..?" asked Toadette. "Where are we going?"
"Don't worry, Toadette, I'll tell you all about it while we wash all of these dishes" said Toad. "See you guys in the morning!" And they walked back into the house, leaving Mario, Peach, Luigi and Yoshi left to talk.
"I'm so glad you decided to go Mario, this really sounds great!" said Luigi, the excitement making him nearly jump with joy.
"Yeah, but as soon as anything fishy starts happening, we're outta there. I mean the second we see Bowser or anybody else, we are getting on the first plane off of that island, right?"
"Of course Mario", replied Peach." I wouldn't wanna be there if I knew something bad was going to happen. But I doubt anything will, this Warren Toadstool seems very rich and sophisticated, not someone who would be associated with Bowser. I just think you should stop worrying about Bowser all together, Mario."
"Yeah, I guess you're right…"
"Of course I am. Now I think we should all get to sleep so we can start to pack in the morning. Just think of all the stuff we have to bring!" And so everyone went inside to get ready for bed, although there was one person who was unable to fall asleep: Mario.
