So, this is my first story, apparently. Oh, and it's a novelization of Mario and Luigi: Superstar Saga, so if you've played that game, then you'll feel familiar here for the most part. Anyhow, I hope you enjoy this recreation of a tale.

Mario and Luigi: A Superstar Story

Chapter 1: An Unlikely Alliance

A letter landed on the window sill of Princess Peach's room. Princess Peach, who was reading a book, looked up and noticed it.

"I wonder what that letter's doing here." Peach asked herself as she picked it up.

. . .

Princess Peach, you must hide. There is great danger coming to you soon. I will meet up with you soon in the Castle Gardens to discuss this in greater details.

Prince Peasley

. . .

It was a fine day in the Mushroom Kingdom. The Goodwill Ambassador from Beanbean Kingdom has arrived. Toads were lined up at each side of the carpet leading to Princess Peach's throne. Sounds were heard from one of the pillars near the carpet's end, but no one took notice of the sounds and just blamed it on some chuckling cockroaches.

The Ambassador was a Bean (a green creature from the Beanbean Kingdom) in yellow clothing, with a grin and a somewhat long nose. He was followed by a smaller bean, face covered by a chest he was holding. He was dressed in the same garb.

"I wish to improve my kingdom's ties with the Mushroom Kingdom." The Ambassador started. "I come bearing a gift from Queen Bean." The Ambassador finished as he bowed to Princess Peach. His follower approaching Peach, and allowing the chest to open.

It revealed a doll with a green face and purple clothing on a spring. It quickly bounced up, and sprayed a foul colour changing gas cloud at Peach's face. She coughed as it covered her whole upper body.

"Eeeyah ha ha ha ha!" The Ambassador cackled, revealing herself as some kind of witch. She was wearing a cape with a purple outside, and a black inside. She wore a dress which was pink and ended in yellow, and had two purple things, which appeared to be ears. She raised her hands in the air, causing lightening to crash indoors, instantly making the Toads freak out and flee while the chest her follower was holding packed up and closed itself. Suddenly the walls turned into a constantly shifting rainbow colour. The follower revealed himself to be a grinning smaller bean, wearing a red cloth and circular glasses. Peach continued to cough in the gas cloud until a kind of headgear with two grey mini-jet packs on the sides, and a yellow/red vacuum on the top sucked up the gas cloud after landing on the witch's minion's head. The witch couldn't help but grin evilly at her handiwork. Once the gas cloud cleared up, Peach could be revealed to look exactly the same, but was waving her hand to try and blow away the gas, and using her other hand to cover her mouth. Seconds later, she slowed down and collapsed.

"Eeeyah ha ha ha ha!" was all that was heard as the witch and her minion laughed briefly, and they flew off (the minion using his headgear, and the witch using a rocket rocking chair to fly off) into the clouds.

. . .

Luigi was hanging the laundry (which mostly consisted of Mario's clothes) on a laundry line, until a Toad ran up to him.

"E-E-E-Emergency situation!" he cried, running on the spot. Luigi looked behind him, and stared at the Toad, waiting for information.

"Did you see the Kingdom Courier?" he asked. Luigi simply just shook his head, but at nothing as Toad had already ran into Mario and Luigi's house.

"MARIO!" he called, waiting for some kind response, until he realized he would get a faster response if he searched the house. He walked up the stairs, shortly glancing at the portrait of Princess Peach, past the window next to Mario's bed. He checked both beds, ignoring the mushroom lamp. He accidentally hit part of the railing on his head, and in his daze he stuttered back on the stairs, fell down them and nearly knocked the hammer on one of the tool pegs down. He regained composure, and walked back up the stairs. He didn't notice one part had no railing and fell off the side, landing on a purple carpet with a star on it. He walked into the bathroom due to the fact he could hear humming.

"Eeeeek!" Toad wailed, running out of the bathroom and crashing into some drawers. Mario, wearing a towel around his waist, walked out of the bathroom and jumped on Toad to wake him up.

"P-P-Princess P-P-Peach...P-P-Princess P-P-Peach..." he said weakly. Mario figured what this meant, ran outside, and jumped towards Luigi and the laundry line. Seconds later, he was dressed and accidentally got Luigi tangled in some rope. He made the most of it, and dragged Luigi with the rope.

"Here we go!" Mario said as they rushed towards Princess Peach's Castle.

. . .

Princess Peach's Castle

"Bro, slow down!" Luigi cried as they made it inside, and Mario slowed to a stop, flinging Luigi into the back of Bowser, who was standing in front of a crying Peach, with two panicked Toads at either side of her.

"Attacking me when my back is turned, huh?" Bowser growled as Luigi hid behind Mario. "Well, that's typical! C'mere, Super Coward Bros!"

Bowser approached them; making Luigi dived southwards. Bowser swung his tail at Mario, thwacking him to the west wall of the room. Mario crawled to his feet and courageously stood his ground. This initiated a battle, obviously.

Mario back-flipped into the air, and tried to stomp on Bowser. Bowser put up his thick hand.

"Mamma mia!" Mario cried, realizing what he was going to do. Bowser pushed it forwards into Mario a fair bit before his head was stomped, causing a loud crack to be heard as Mario was sent flying into the ceiling, then down to the ground.

"That hurt..." Mario groaned, sprawled across the ground. "Felt like I broke my leg."

"Mario!" the Toad to the left of Peach called out, having Mario's full attention. "When was your last battle? Did you already forget about your Action Commands?"

"No, I was just caught off-guard. I'm a little rusty, but I still know 'em, thanks for asking though." Mario said.

"Oh, really? I should have known! Sorry for the interruption." Toad said, stepping back next to Peach and continued to freak out.

"GO BRO GO! GO BRO GO!" Luigi cheered as he chucked a Mushroom to Mario. "Stomp him to next Tuesday, bro!"

Mario couldn't help but be amazed at how much Luigi looked up to him and how much faith he had in him. It was so moving Mario managed to get up, even with the pained leg, though that was probably due to the Mushroom Luigi had thrown him that he had just eaten.

Bowser stopped paying attention at the word "Mario!" so he didn't expect Mario to jump on him, allowing him to deal damage. This got Bowser mad, and he spat out more flames, which Mario dodged, making Bowser even angrier.

"Bro, sock it to him!" Luigi called, punching his fists about in the air to demonstrate but falling over after the second punch. Mario nodded, and proceeded to jump on him yet again, to smash Bowser on the head with both of his balled up fists.

"GET OFF ME!" Bowser picked up Mario off his head and chucked him into the wall.

"Mario!" the Toad to the left of Peach called out again, having Mario's full attention yet again. "I forgot something! This is really important! You can also dodge Bowser's attacks! Do you want to know how?"

Mario let his palm connect to his face as he fell off the wall he was practically stuck to, flat on to the ground.

"Toad, didn't you see me dodge that last attack?"

"Didn't you just get chucked into a wall in a painful fashion?" the Toad asked as they walked back into the background. "You SURE you know what you're talking about?"

Mario just shrugged sheepishly.

Bowser then saw this as a chance to strike, and blasted a few more flames at Mario, catching him off-guard. Mario was set on fire thanks to this, and he panicked.

"STOP, DROP AND ROLL! STOP, DROP AND ROLL!" Mario chanted, rolling about on the floor while still on fire. Bowser chuckled.

"Grahaha! Barbecued Plumber! Delish!" Bowser taunted, Luigi running into the scene with a bucket of water, and putting out Mario's fires.

"Thanks, Luigi." Mario sighed. Luigi tipped his hat in acknowledgement as he walked back into the foreground of the battle.

Mario instantly jumped up and kicked Bowser while he was guffawing his head off, not noticing the fact that Mario's flames had been doused, dishing out more damage.

Mario dodged Bowser's flames, and ran towards Bowser, pointing at a spot below his nose. Bowser looked down, Mario flicked his finger up, Bowser was stunned in shock at falling for that. Mario kicked Bowser in the stomach, and walked away.

"Urk! Blaargh…" Bowser groaned, and fell to the floor.

Bowser got up several seconds later, shaking off his recent injuries.

"Uh… W-Wait a second! Listen… This is no time for fighting! …Even though I would've won!" Bowser yelled.

"Listen to me, everyone! Something terrible has happened!" the Toad on the left called out "The Goodwill Ambassador from our neighbour, Beanbean Kingdom, just paid a visit!"

"Well?" Mario asked, waiting for answers.

"Yeah! But it was no friendly visit!" the Toad on the right then called out, "The ambassador stole Princess Peach's voice!"

Mario and Luigi jumped in shock.

"*insert random symbols*" Peach cried sadly as the Toads next to her fled. The very words fell out of the sky and blew up the carpet.

The Toad on the left returned to finish the other Toad's explanation. "…and replaced it with this explosive vocabulary!"

"*insert random symbols*" Peach cried yet again, setting off another explosion, though luckily everyone ran off once Peach began to speak, so they weren't hit by the blast's radius.

"Gah! If I kidnap Princess Peach in this state, she'll wreck my castle!" Bowser growled once he returned along with the Mario Bros "Mario! Do something super!"

Mario stood there, waiting for some kind of indication of what he should do.

"Mario! Please! Go and retrieve Princess Peach's beautiful voice! Only you can do it!" the Toad on the left returned and requested.

"Never fails." Mario mumbled with a smirk. He then waited for information on WHERE her voice was taken to and HOW to get there.

"The perpetrator came from the Beanbean Kingdom!" explained the Toad on the right, who also returned. "If you head over there, should be able to learn more!"

"Bwa ha ha ha! Yes! Go, capture that fiend and get back Peach's voice! And then I can kidnap her!" Bowser chuckled as he pounded the ground to get Mario's full attention. "We'll take my Koopa Cruiser and reach the Beanbean Kingdom in no time! Mario! We leave immediately!"

"Works like a charm." Mario thought in his head as he smirked again.

"*insert many random symbols*" Peach sobbed as she spoke.

Everyone ran out of the building, as the entire castle was caught in the blast radius, somehow not taking much damage, however.

This story is currently undergoing revision, not that it needed any. Typos and stuff are minimal, but I more so want to re-read each chapter and just improve them in any way possible. So if you come back to this chapter after some revisions, you'll be able to see all the revised chapters below.
