Hey everyone! I'm back! This is a comedy that I thought up of during my "break" as an author. Let me remind you, though, that the first part of the first chapter of this story is going to have quotes, like a novel, but the introductions and on will be in script form! This first chapter will introduce everyone, as well as tell what the heck is going on, which is always pretty hard to answer. By the way, if you're wondering why this is in the Mario section instead of the Sonic section, that is because this story takes place in the Mushroom Kingdom. Well, I think I've covered everything, now let's start the story!

Episode 1: The Cast Develops

"Well, what should we do now?" A man with a camera asked everyone around him.

"Hmm... well, we have our temporary announcers..."

"Hey! What's "temporary" supposed to mean?" One of the announcers shouted.

"Temporary- A lasting, existing-"

"Shut up! I mean you, Mr. Bossy! What's that supposed to mean?"

Everyone in the set room of Mario & Sonic At the Random Games was discussing how to start. The big and crazy games were about to make their debut, but first, the producer needed to hire some crew members. So far, there was:

Director: James Johnson
Announcer: John Johnson
Announcer: William Johnson
Cameraman 1: Jacob Johnson
Cameraman 2: Alfred Johnson
Security Guards: Kevin Garnett, Richard Seymour, and Chuck Norris
Producer: Patrick Johnson

"Hold on. Why does everyone have "Johnson" as their last names?" John Johnson said.

"Hey! What about us, man?" K.G. (Kevin Garnett) called out.

"Well, besides you," John said.

"Okay, guys, come on. We have to get a move on. In a moment, I will use my telepathic powers to transport our cast here. And when they come, you better be ready!" Director James Johnson said.

"Hold on. Why-"

"You hold on, question machine!" The two announcers quarreled.

"No, really. Why can't the producer do all of this? After all, he is the producer," John Johnson asked.

"Well, I don't know. He's too lazy, I guess," James said, walking into another room.

Okay. Now that you know what's happening, let's start the introductions.

Mario: playing Super Mario Galaxy Cannibalistic goombas! Did that guy just make me fly?

Mario is now flying out into nowhere.

Mario: Come on, stop! I'm pressing A, stop flying! STOP!!! I SAID-

James Johnson: Hello, Mario.

Mario: looks around Huh? Where in the name of toasters am I?

James J: You are one of the two stars in our new TV show and video game, Mario and Sonic At the Random Games.

Mario: Mama-mia! I gotta tell Luigi!

Luigi: No need. I'm right here, Mario.

Mario: Oh, hi, Luigi. Do you have any idea what's going on?

Luigi: Well, I think I have ears, so, yeah, I do.

Mario: Shut up!

All of a sudden, Princess Peach is standing beside Mario.

Peach: Hello, Mario.

Mario: Whoa! Oh, uh, hi Peach! I was just, um, you know, having a quick talk with junior over here not to be a-

Peach: You're pathetic. Walks away.

Mario: NOOOOOO! And I've saved her 576 times, too!

Luigi: You know, we're only 3 years apart. I'm not your "Little Junior", or whatever you call it.

Meanwhile, at Bowser's Castle:

Bowser: Muahaha! The water's great, eh, junior?

Bowser Jr: What water?

Bowser: Ugh, would you just say your line before I fry you?!

Bowser Jr: No. I'm not an actor.

Bowser: Why you little-

Princess Peach: Hi, Bowser. Gee, I didn't expect to see you here. Pretends to blush

Bowser: Uh, um, hey Peach! Uh, what's up?

Peach: Ha ha. Works every time.

Peach leaves Bowser red-faced, while Bowser Jr. laughs at him. Bowser then fries Bowser Jr. with his breath.

James J: Okay, looks like everyone from the Mushroom Kingdom is here, including the Shy Guys and the Toads to watch the games.

Cameraman 1 (After all, you probably won't remember his name): Yep. Let's send in the Sonic franchise. Shivers a little

James J: Okay! Here comes the Sonic franchise, to the set!

Announcer 1 (John Johnson): Wait, wait! Didn't you say Captain Falcon was gonna be here? Can we send him in here first?

James J: Fine. Here he comes!

At the F-Zero Car Repair Shop...

Captain Falcon: Do you know what you're doing, sir?

Mechanic: Yes, you bet I do.

Captain Falcon: Come on, hurry up! I want a really fast car! A car faster than Sonic the Hedgehog!

Mechanic: Sir, this is a swearing-free zone. You are not allowed to say that name.

Captain Falcon: Oh yeah. Sorry.

Mechanic: Well, it's just about ready, except for-

Captain Falcon: Yahoo! I'm off!

Mechanic: Wide eyed and worried Except it might... mess up your... attacks...

Captain Falcon speeds out of the Car Repair shop, but immediately finds himself stopped, on the Mario & Sonic set.

James J: Welcome, sir, to Mario & Sonic At the Random Games.

Meanwhile, at Sonic's House (Wherever that is)...

Sonic: Yeah, this is awesome! Look at me, Tails! Yeah, eat that, Mario! Come on, come on... Hey! I was disconnected? I hate Brawl! Dang third party rip-off jerks...

Tails: Sleeping on couch

Sonic: You know what? This is boring. I wanna beat Mario speed and fightin' style!... Yeah!

Tails: Wakes up Huh, what?

Sonic: Aw, Tails, you missed it. I was just pwning Mario, and Eggbutt, both at the same time! Uber pwnage 142 BAGLES!

Tails: You're annoying.

Sonic: Unaware that Tails just insulted him That's what I thought, little buddy. Come on, let's go outside, so I can show off for Sally, yeah!

Sonic and Tails walk outside, but they find themselves in a whole new area. People they already know, like Knuckles the Enchendia, are there, too.

Sonic: Whoa, man! This is waaay past cool! What is this, anyway?

Nobody answers, as Sonic is talking to himself, Tails having gone somewhere. Anywhere. To get away from Sonic.

Sonic: Well, as I say: Randomly clears throat Sonic's the name, speed's my game! C. Falcon's car speeds past him.

Sonic: Whoa, now! Now that's just not cool. Nobody's faster than the speedin' blue machine! Speeds off.

James J: Well, I hear everyone complaining and being annoyed. Sonic must be here. Now, let's get some new announcers.

Now, at Gillette Stadium...

Al Michaels: Matt Cassel of the Patriots, now dropping back to pass. He's gonna have to throw smart to get by this Jet's defence. Cassel, now being chased, and he's rolling right! Rolling, rolling, rolling-

John Madden: Do a barrel roll!

Al Michaels: Shut up! Still rolling, Cassel looks for receivers, and... he's sacked! What a play by the New York Jets!

John Madden: I agree. You see, when a defender is runnin' at you, and you're trying to throw the ball, you gotta get rid of it, or else you'll get tackled.

Al Michaels: Obviously trying not to laugh Heh, heh, well said, John. (snigger, snigger) bursts out laughing

John Madden: Totally clueless, just smiles at the camera.

Al Michaels: Hey, hold on, where are we?

John Madden: I think we're in the press box. Because, you know, when people like us have to cover a game, we gotta go up here to-

Al Michaels: No, shut up! We're definitely not in the press box.

John Madden: You're right. Where are we?

James J: Welcome to Mario & Sonic At the Random Games, guys. You'll be our hosts.

John and Al just stare at James, confused.

James J: Well, I think that's it for today. Join us next episode, where the games really begin.
