What was torture? Well, for Ludwig von Koopa it was getting his blue mess of hair combed and cut by his sister. Which is what is happening now.
"Why do I need to do this again father?" Asked the blue haired Koopa boy. "Not to be rude or anything, but I am only asking why I must carry out this outrageous-"
"SHUT UP!" Growled his father, Bowser, who was angered by his son's faith in him. "Look, this plan will not fail like all the others!"
"Plus" Added Larry who was behind Bowser casually playing his Game Boy. "You make the best CROSSDRESSER!"
All the Koopalings (exept Ludwig), Bowser, and Bowser Jr. burst out laughing at the joke made by the second youngest. It was a dumb joke anyways. Making fun of his long yet extremely messy hair seemed funny to his siblings. As Ludwig tried to squirm and run out of the room, his father held him down; There was no way he run away from this odd form of torture. Ludwig sat though every joke made at him by his siblings as Wendy continued to make his hair "beautiful" by his sister's standards.
Ludwig had better things to do than to get himself 'prepared' for his father's mission for him. He had been working on some music sheets from a couple days ago and he could never finish them because of his siblings constantly coming into his room bothering him. Instead of them dragging him into whatever nonsense was happening at the time they had brought him to a waiting (and a cruelly smiling) Bowser.

Peach looked out the castle's window to see a Koopa Troopa walking towards the castle with someone walking with him. The Koopa Troopa politely knocked on the castle front door where he waited.
"Yes?" Said Peach as she opened the door to get a closer look at the pair of strangers.
The Koopa Troopa looked at her for a second then cleared his throat,"My daughter here..." He put his had around the girl with him. "Has wanted to work as a maid in your castle."
"Is that so?"
"Yes. Her mother showed her how to clean and cook, but our family isn't making much money so we signed up to work for you." The Koopa finished his explanation finally walking away leaving Peach with his daughter.
Peach led the Koopa girl into the castle but something was, different about her than her father. The maid's father was a normal Koopa Troopa that, hopefully, didn't work for Bowser. The maid herself however, hung her head low showing the messy dark blue hair she had. She also wasn't a Koopa Troopa. The blue haired maid looked more like a Boom Boom from Darkland.
Oh well, thought Peach. she is most likely adopted. There is NOTHING wrong with her!
"What's your name?" Asked Peach politely
"Lucy..." The maid replied lifting her face up."Sorry if I didn't talk to you for the longest time when my father dropped me off, I was having a hard time imagining what this job would be like."
"Really? Oh, it's easier than you think! Before you know it, you will be used to how things run!"
"Ah, okay then!"
She bought it. Maybe I did doubt Father's plan a little to much, thought the maid, who was actually Prince Ludwig von Koopa in a maid's outfit.

"And that is where the military Toads stay." Toadsworth was dragging 'Lucy' around the castle pointing out every room and detail. Ludwig at one point tuned him out but Toadsworth yelled at him for not paying attention. "This is why- OH LOOK!" The old man suddenly shouted at the top of his lungs snapping blue haired Koopa prince out of his trance.
"What?!" Ludwig questioned with a girly voice
"Now that I got your attention, young lady. There is the music room." With his right hand extended Toadsworth pointed to a room with several instruments scattered about. "Peach has played some of these, but she spends so much time with the Mario Brothers that she can never practice..."
"You seem quite sad about the Princess not playing anymore." 'Lucy' replied
"Yes. Very sad." Toadsworth had a hint of a tear in his eye as he said that and was gloomy on the rest of the tour.
I COULD play for the old Toad, but giving up my identity like that wouldn't be a good move. Ludwig's thoughts started to wander until a song was forming inside his head. Darn instrument room! It's making me want to compose again, but that can wait.
I've noticed that a lot of views ave gone on this chapter, but I insist on reading the others I have made! :D
