Peach Toadstool glanced out her window, just as the sun set. With a smile, she immediately stood, grabbed her new book from off of her nightstand, and exited her room, through the window. It was only a short drop to the ground, and when she landed she headed for the thick forest to the west of the castle.

Walking in the moonlight, Peach took a deep breath and her smile widened. She wasn't allowed to do much at home, and she was glad for any moment she had for herself, and herself alone. Which is why she left without anyone knowing every night, and just did whatever she wanted to do.

Nights like this she didn't have to worry about meeting everybody's standards of a 'Perfect Princess', and she didn't have to worry about fake friends and stupid princes who just liked her for her kingdom.

As she entered the forest, she continued walking for around a half hour, until she came to a small tree, which she claimed for her own a long time ago. She quickly climbed it, finding the perfect spot among its branches.


Louis Koopa angrily stormed out his castle. He just was in a argument with Kamek, the Magikoopa who raised him ever since his parents had died. Even though he was eighteen, and therefore old enough to become official king of the Dark Lands, Louis didn't want to rule, yet. He was very fine with just being a prince, and he didn't want all of the responsibility that came with the kingdom.

Kamek had been trying to convince him to have the coronation soon, but that had just led to a fight, and Louis was now in a horrible mood.

He kept on walking, not caring where he was going, and not noticing that it was quickly becoming night.

When he stopped, he found himself in a uninhabited forest, just outside the Mushroom Kingdom. He heard a thud on the ground behind him, and he turned around to see a girl. She was tall, looked like the was in her late teens, and was wearing a pink dress. She had long blond hair and bright blue eyes, and she was staring right at him.
"Who are you?" she asked.


A/N: So, here is the first chapter! It's short, but the next ones are going to be longer. I have a plot in my head, and hopefully I can stick to it.

Don't forget to leave a review and lemme know what you think!

Oh, and for the whole story, I don't own the Mario games, or any of the characters in them.
