Chapter 1: Prologue

"Alright. Fine. I don't see how this is going to help, but...Hey, this says 'Introduction'. Is this like, a summary or something? Just...fill in the blanks, huh? No. That's boring. I'll make it like a paragraph. Gotta be unique, y'know? Right? Alright, no need to be so pushy!"

Hi. I'm Kylie. Kylie Kannett. I'm...pretty sure I'm eighteen, and I live in a small town in Massachusetts. Or, I used to live there.

I have a pretty normal life. I'm loved by my parents, I'm loved by...my parents...Alright, fine. I never had that much of a social life, but since I never really aimed for much of a social life, it doesn't bother me. Although...it does have some drawbacks. For instance, although I said my life is normal, that means it is also boring.

My life basically consists of three things: school, homework, video games...well, besides eating, sleeping, basic dental hygiene...but whatever. I spend...a lot of time playing video games. I would be outside, with other people, but again, no friends. My parents say it's unhealthy how much I play, but in all honesty, there isn't really that much else to do. In terms of games, I'm mostly loyal to Nintendo, since that's what I grew up with, though I'm dabbling in Sony and PC gaming. I love certain indie games. My favourite so far is Shovel Knight, and...sorry. You don't want to read about that. I'll get to the point.

I realized my life was dull at a pretty early age. And ever since I played Wind Waker, I had a pretty good idea of the life I wanted. I wanted an adventure of a life. Like Link had. They were out there, seizing the day, doing things, and I was sitting behind my TV screen, watching them. I wanted mystery! Unpredictability! Surprises! So every night (and yes, I realize this is childish) I knelt by my bed and wished to go on an adventure. My parents must have heard me one night, because when we went on spring vacation, they pointed out every flyer that had the word 'ADVENTURE' on the front. Of course, being young and naive, I jumped at the chance. But...these 'adventures' weren't what I wanted. Although ziplining and undersea diving is definitely cool, they weren't dangerous enough, risky enough...adventure-y enough, I guess...for me. They were predictable, they were...tours. I didn't want tours.

I wished by my bed ever since I was eight. By the time I was seventeen, I realized what I was doing was really childish. I'm in grade 11, I said. I shouldn't be doing this. So I vowed that if my wish wasn't granted by eighteen, I'd give up. I'd go after a normal life. And...because you are reading about this (because you know, future Kylie, exactly where I am writing in this diary and who I am writing in this diary with), I don't have to say my wish came true. But since you might have Alzheimers or something, I'll detail it out for you. That's what the diary's for. But...I can't tell you how I came here. All I can tell you is I knelt by my bed and wished like I did every night. It was a few weeks before my eighteenth birthday. Then I climbed into bed and went to sleep.

I woke up to the face of Luigi 'Green 'Stache' Mario.


Dear Diary...

Today Mario went on another Mario Party. I was not invited. But that's fine. You can't be invited to every single Mario Party in existence, right? There's been parties Mario hasn't been to. And I've been to my fair share of parties, too.
But...I can't help feeling jealous. He's only recently let me come on adventures with him, and that's only to help him. He's always the one to get the kiss from Peach. Is that selfish, Diary? For me to be thinking that way?
As Mario left, I got ready to go to Vista Hill to...ah, who am I kidding, Diary? I went there to mope. I've been feeling really mopey for these past few days; I hope it clears up soon. But I had to go through Toad Town, which is never fun when I'm alone. Mostly because I keep getting mistaken for Link. It's not that hard, Toads! Link has a sword!
But when I got to Vista Hill, something was different. Someone was already there. A human.
This was pretty exciting, Diary. As far as I knew, there were only six humans, including myself, in the Mushroom Kingdom. So another one makes us all feel a lot less alone. So of course I got curious. And then she woke up.


Okay, guys. I know it's short. Only 850+ words. But this is the PROLOGUE. Plot-heavy chapters will be bigger, I promise.

So in this story, I'm going to implement perspective. Each chapter will switch between perspective of Kylie and the other main character. I'm not going to spoil it, but you should already be able to figure out who it is.

This story is part of a trilogy. I have another book in the trilogy up, and you can read it on my profile. But you don't have to. The only reason I'm calling it a trilogy is because the plots relate to each other in a way I won't spoil yet. Each one still works as a standalone story. So you can read all three, only two, or just one. I'm writing them like this because the other two are in different categories (Pokemon and Kirby) and I don't want people who are only Mario fans to suffer because they don't know a Riolu from a Servine. So no, you don't have to read it. But if you're a fan of Pokemon and Kirby and like this story, chances are you'll like No Pokeballs Allowed and Window to the Past too.

I'm so excited. So, so excited.
