It was nearly 8:00 o'clock P.M. in the Mushroom Kingdom, and Luigi, Mario and Peach were getting ready to play Twister. They had decided to have some fun because nobody was tired and, the later they went to sleep, the shorter the wait would be for Daisy to arrive the following day.

However, in another kingdom we like to refer as Sarasaland, Princess Daisy was playing Wii in her bedroom. She had just finished dinner and felt like playing. Plus, she wanted to pack by herself, when her mother and father were already asleep; they had spent the entire hour they had dinner arguing with their daughter and themselves.

King Richard (Daisy's father) was still mad and annoyed about Daisy dating a plumber. He thought that a beautiful princess should be with a prince, and he couldn't understand their relationship. Queen Lillian, however, thought the contrary. She was marveled that her only daughter had found a gentleman who loved her for who she was, and she wanted to make her husband understand that; but no matter how hard she tried, Richard wouldn't listen.

After an hour or so of playing Mario & Sonic at the Olympic Games, Daisy decided it was time for a break. She turned off the Wii, sat down in her bed and drank lots of water. When she finished one whole bottle, she wanted to get some more, but she was startled to hear her parents screaming. So, wondering what was going on, Daisy as quietly as possible, got out of her room and left the door ajar. Then she tip-toed all the way to the living room and stopped behind the wall that separated the living room from the family room; the princess paused and listened.

"Why would she want to date a plumber, Lillian?! Why? Explain that!" Lillian sighed and once again tried explaining it to Richard: "She loves him and that Luigi guy treats her like a lady and he loves her for he she is. Remember when you met me. Just remember, please." Richard seemed annoyed, but he closed his eyes and remembered. He was having lunch with Marco and George at the Old Mushroom Buffet; the waitress that took their order was the most beautiful girl he had ever seen. Reddish-brown hair, perfect skin, radiant smile…

Richard couldn't help but smile widely. Lillian felt warm inside and her heart leaped with hope. "You see? I wasn't a princess, and yet you fell in love with me…" Richard instantly snapped right out of his memory and shouted once more: "But this is different! He's a second-rate plumber! A complete wuss and crybaby! My daughter just doesn't understand that…"

That was too much for Daisy. Her father had crossed a line, and she felt hurt and humiliated. Tears were streaming down her eyes as she made her way to her room. Her father didn't understand that all the guys she had ever met always wrote her off for her personality and tomboyish attitude. Daisy realized that, the more her father neglected her love for Luigi, the more love she felt for him. The princess grabbed her two orange suitcases and started packing. At first, she just threw stuff inside, but as the minutes passed by, she began to feel calmer and more relaxed.

20 minutes later, she yawned as her last suitcase was zipped up and shoved in the corner of her bedroom. She checked her travel bag one more time before going to bed. When she was finished, she crawled into bed and closed her eyes. It was going to be a long trip to the Mushroom Kingdom, and she wanted to be worry-free and relaxed. But, just then, she heard her mom open the door. Lillian kissed her forehead and whispered: "Good night, sweetie." Then she walked out and shut the door behind her. Our princess drifted off to sleep for good with a smile on her face, thinking about Luigi.

Back in Peach's castle, Mario and Luigi were going to spend the night there, and everybody was in bed. Luigi was thinking about Daisy, and he was excited for tomorrow.

Tomorrow he would be with Daisy, and nothing else would matter.
