Hey! :D I'm back with another gameshow story! I've been really excited to write another one after I finished The Mole: Mario Mischief. This time there is no Mole so the contestants are going to be put into teams. And just like my The Mole story, the viewers are going to vote. First in the reviews, but I may change it to polls later on. And unlike my The Mole story, there will be rejoins AND joins, so it is definitely going to be longer than my The Mole story, and maybe my longest story ever! XD Probably not. I know I have to catch up on The Terror and Escape, but I think I might delete them because I don't see them going anywhere. For The Terror I go to delete it but then I stop myself so that story is probably going to be gone soon, and for Escape, that story is probably going to continue. I'll probably just keep the chapters that are on there right now and just stop the stories, but I don't know yet. Anyway, I knew this was my longest Author's Note EVER, but now that it's over...Enjoy!
Note: This time the cast isn't Mario, Luigi, Peach, ect. It's actually a lot different, like Mario, Watt, Lakilulu, ect. so it won't be boring.
...
The audience sat in their seats, excited. A new gameshow was about to begin, and they heard it was going to be amazing. Suddenly the lights switched on, shining on the stage. The stage was actually the same stage used for a gameshow named 'Mario Battle', but it hadn't been used since then and it was pretty old. Suddenly, a small toad walked onto the stage from the left, and a girl toad walked in from the right. The spotlight shone on them as they held their microphones, smiling up at the crowd.
"Hello, everybody!" The girl toad shouted out happily, and the crowd roared in excitement. "Welcome to the new gameshow...Who Wants To Be A Superstar!"
The crowd cheered and clapped even louder, the two hosts laughing at this.
"I'm Toad, the host, and here is the wonderful co-host, Toadette!" Toad introduced his sister. "I think you should recognise us. We both competed in the two gameshows, Mario Battle and The Mole: Mario Mischief! Toadette won Mario Battle, and I won The Mole: Mario Mischief, so we decided to take a break from all of the competition this time. So instead of competing we were asked to be hosts!"
"Yes." Replied Toadette, nodding. "We were actually asked to compete, but I said I couldn't be bothered, so they paid me one million coins to host this show. I would actually be in space right now if it wasn't for this idiot."
She pointed at Toad, who scowled. The crowd laughed, enjoying this fight between the siblings.
"ANYWAY..." Toad rolled his eyes. "This time a lot more contestants will be competing. In Mario Battle, only ten contestants competed. In The Mole: Mario Mischief, only twelve competed! Which means, Toadette, I am better than you because I won a gameshow that had more contestants in it than the one YOU won!"
"Oh, shut up, Toad!" Toadette whacked him with her microphone and he tripped over, making the audience gasp in shock but then start laughing. "Anyway, this gameshow is taking a BIG step up from the previous two! This time, 20 contestants are competing!"
A screen came down, showing a huge number twenty. Toad tried to stand up but the screen hit him and he fell over again, groaning.
"Yes, there will be two teams of ten. And don't worry, you will see A LOT of familiar faces!" Toadette smiled, and the audience cheered happily. "Should we meet the contestants?"
"No..." Replied Toad, furious with his sister. "Let's go home and drink hot chocolate. OF COURSE LET'S MEET THE CONTESTANTS!"
Toadette growled and kicked him off the stage. Toad cried in terror as he landed in the lap of Master Koopa.
"Hey, what are you doing here?" Toad questioned.
"I came to see how bad your gameshow is compared to mine." He rolled his eyes and pushed Toad off his lap.
"Let's see the first five contestants!" Toadette cheered and the audience clapped as the first five contestants entered. "He is the main hero, dressed in red, it's Mario!"
"Super Mario to you," Mario pushed Toadette out of the way and leapt into the air. "SUPAH MARIO!"
"Um...Whatever." Toadette rolled her eyes. "I bet you were expecting Luigi next, weren't you? Well...Too Bad! There is no Luigi this time. For this season we are forgetting about the main characters and we are concentrating on the unpopular ones, which we think will raise the ratings. But we are also bringing back some old contestants who have competed on the previous two seasons, like that."
Toadette pointed at Mario who was rolling around on the floor, singing.
"Next up we have someone who is extremely bright, not in the clever way, by the way." Toadette burst out laughing. "We have Watt!"
"Hey everybody! I have never competed on a gameshow before, so I hope I do good!" Watt smiled. "And it's great to be the second introduced!"
"Shut up, Watt," Toadette sighed, rolling her eyes. "Next up we have the two bitches of the Mario series, Wendy Koopa and Lakilulu!"
"I am NOT bitchy, I just have a giant ego, OK!?" Wendy folded her arms and walked off. "Lakilulu's the bitch."
"I have to agree," Toadette nodded her head, along with the entire audience. "Lakilulu, get your fat ass over there!"
She pointed at the other side of the room and Lakilulu followed. While she was walking Toadette tripped her up and everybody laughed.
"LEAVE ME ALONE!" She cried with tears in her eyes and ran to the others.
"Now, who is the final contestant of the first five to be introduced?" Toadette wondered. "Well, he's a money-loving, fat ass creep who eats nothing but garlic. Literally. It's Wario, everyone!"
Wario ran in as fast as he could, which wasn't very fast, and smelled Toadette. Creeped out, she raised her microphone and slammed it down on his heads and he fell unconscious.
"I'm surrounded by creeps!" She cried and burst into tears. "WHY!? WHY!? WWWWHHHHHYYYYY!? Ooh, a penny!"
Toad ran back onto stage, took the penny off her and kicked her in the chest, making her cough and drop to her knees in pain.
"THAT'S MY PENNY, BITCH!" Toad flipped Toadette off and turned back to the audience to introduce the next five contestants. "Ahem, sorry about that. I get a little...annoyed when it comes to my precious belongings."
The audience all stared at Toad, frightened.
"Um...What?" Toad scratched the back of his head awkwardly. "Um...Next up we have a Paper Mario character. Who are you gonna root for? Who's it gonna be? Is it Heather, Alejandro, or will you pick Bobbery?"
Bobbery ran onto stage, and the crowd screamed in terror. Toad chuckled and patted Bobbery's head, smiling.
"I thought we could have a rapist on the show. You know, staying in a room with Goombella!" Toad laughed as the seventh contestant walked onto the stage. "Hey Goombella!"
"Yeah, I can fit you in tonight. But it's going to have to be quick, because I'm on a gameshow. Okay? Yeah. Like, bye honey!" Goombella said and put her phone away. "Like, hey!"
Toad told Goombella to go and stand over by Bobbery, who kept grinning and winking at her.
"Like, stay the hell away from me, bitch!" Goombella yelled. "Or I will totally, like, headbonk you into oblivion!"
"Ooh, I'd like that!" Bobbery winked at her again and Goombella gagged.
"You better not, like, be not the same team as, like, me." Goombella tried to walk away from him but he just kept following her. "This is going to be a, like, long competition..."
"Next up we have another Paper Mario character! Say hello to Vivian, everybody!" Toad smiled and the crowd clapped as Vivian walked onto the stage.
"Hey everybody-Oh No...It's Bobbery..." Vivian gasped. "Sorry, I can't do this. Please let me go! Please!"
"Um, no." Toad pushed Vivian into Bobbery who dragged her into a dark corner of the stage, grinning. "We are going to have five Paper Mario characters in this competiton, which means one still has to be introduced, not including Lakilulu, the bitch."
He looked at Lakilulu and began laughing as she whimpered in sadness.
"The final Paper Mario character is...Sushie, the boring one..." Toad groaned as she entered the stage, smiling. "Seriously? Why did the producers choose her? I mean, there was Koops, Goombario, and even Kersti! Why that little brat!?"
Sushie rolled her eyes and walked over to the others.
"Anyway, the tenth contestant is Mimi!"
The audience gasped, not expecting Mimi to compete.
"Haha, not really. Say hello to Waluigi!" Toad clapped as he entered the stage.
"Now half of the contestants have been introduced. You ten would have been a team, but we are doing a challenge to see who the two team captains are, and Lakilulu, trust me, you are definitely going to be last to get picked."
"Now for the next five!" Toadette said. "Toad, you introduce the first contestant. I'm too lazy."
Toad rolled his eyes.
"Now time for five more original contestants. Yes, I know, we have already had three, but there are going to be another five, alright!?" Toad shouted angrily at nobody in particular. "Next up is an evil Princess. In Mario Battle she was alright, but in The Mole: Mario Mischief she turned completely evil, and none of us know why. Say hello to the evil Princess Daisy, everybody!"
Nobody clapped as she walked onto the stage scowling with her arms folded. She spotted Vivian and she smiled deviously and walked over to her.
"Hey Vivian!" She grinned, kicking her and laughing as she cried out in pain. "You have no idea what I'm going to do to you after what you did to me last season..."
Vivian gulped.
"Next up is...Princess Peach, to complete the alliance of her, Daisy and Goombella...If it's still going on, of course." Toadette said as Peach entered, smiling and waving to the audience. "Third up is...Bowser, who hasn't competed in a gameshow since Mario Battle, which happened a year ago now!"
Bowser entered, laughing and waving, enjoying the praise he was getting from the audience.
"OK Bowser, that's enough!" Toadette shouted, but he ignored her. "Bowser, you can stop now! BOWSER, STOP IT RIGHT NOW!"
Bowser stopped and walked over to the others, embarrassed.
"Two more original contestants still have to be introduced. Stop thinking it's Luigi!" Toadette pointed at a random person in the audience who wasn't even thinking it was going to be Luigi. "OK...Flurrie is back, everybody! Yes, I know she's a Paper Mario character, but she has also competed before, so quit complaining!"
Flurrie walked onto the stage, happy that she got to compete again. Shy was encouraged because she had came second in The Mole: Mario Mischief, only losing to Toad. But she didn't mind because Toad was her friend.
"The final original character is...Rosalina!" Toadette clapped for the cosmic princess as she walked on, waving. "And now for the final five. Toad, I'm handing it to you."
"So far fifteen characters have been introduced, and five remain. The contestants who have been introduced already are Mario, Watt, Wendy, Lakilulu, Wario, Bobbery, Goombella, Vivian, Sushie, Waluigi, Princess Daisy, Princess Peach, Bowser, Flurrie, and Rosalina. Who will be introduced?" Toad said and left a pause for suspense. "Well, the final group of five is called 'Unpopular'. The first person to join us is Birdo! You are so unpopular! Wait, why isn't Goombella on this team?"
Goombella rolled her eyes and Birdo walked towards everybody.
"Why did I apply for this?" She face-palmed.
"The final four are..." Toad paused once again for suspense. "Goombario, Donkey Kong, Lakilester and Bowser Jr!"
"I am NOT unpopular!" Donkey Kong protested but the crowd booed in disagreement.
"I know a lot of mathematical facts." Smiled Goomario, when he suddenly got punched by Toadette.
"Nobody cares, Goombario!" She shouted and then turned back to the camera. "Well, now that the contestants have been introduced, let's start with the first challenge, which will decide who the two team captains are!"
...
I hope you enjoyed! I know this chapter was a little boring because it was just introducing them, but the next chapter will have the first challenge and also who is up for elimination.
