A quick note before I start the story:

Reply:

L'Amour:Thanks man! You really should make an account, that way you can do a lot more stuff on here. But thanks for the comments on the story. I will try my best to update often. And the Shy Guy parts might come a little later. But I like Shy Guy, too. They're so mysterious, which I why I love them. So I decided for my first fic, I'd make one about a Shy Guy.

Mario and Luigi had gotten some lasagna at the restaurant down the block then waited until 7:00 p.m. to go to Peach's castle.

PEACH'S GARDEN, 7:00 P.M.

"C'mon Mario," Luigi whispered as he and Mario walked into the Toads' room.

The Toads turned around to face the Mario Bros. "Whoa!" one Toad exclaimed. "Mario and Luigi! Hey guys!"

After they had finished greeting each other, the Mario explained what had been going on, and the experiment they were going to conduct. Four Toads volunteered for the dangerous task. Luigi tied them up with thin ropes. Mario hooked them each onto a fishing pole.

"Are you sure this is safe?" one Toad asked.

"Don't worry," Mario answered. "We'll pull you on your fishing pole to get you inside in case something happens."

"I'm not sure about this..," the second Toad said, fearful.

"Haven't we always pulled through for you guys every time?" Luigi asked.

The Toads nodded.

While hooking each of them, Mario asked them, "So, what are each of your names?"

The first Toad's name was Felix. The second was Mark. The third was James. And the last was Kenny. Mario had finished hooking them up.

"Alright, let's go!" Luigi whispered, pointing to the hall leading to Peach's garden.

Each of the Toads went different directions when the doors opened. Mario and Luigi closed the door slightly on their ropes, so they could feel a pull and stay in the safety of the inside. The Toads were shivering, from both the cold air and fear. Steps were heard in the grass.

"Do you guys hear something?" James asked, his voice a little shaky.

"I don't know. It could just be a squirrel," Mark replied.

"Good. Nothing so far," Luigi whispered.

At that moment, a Toad burst through the door (the other door, not the garden entrance door). "Guys! Peach and Daisy are here!" he wailed as silently as he could.

"Oh no!" Mario exclaimed.

"You have to stall them," Luigi said to the Toad.

"Alright, Luigi. I'll try my best," the Toad said as he ran out the door.

Meanwhile, Peach and Daisy were waiting at the door. "Hm, where are they?" Peach asked, impatiently. Then she changed the subject. "So how are you and Luigi? Are you both enjoying seeing each other again after a long time being away?" she teased.

Daisy laughed. "Well, I'm just trying to see him as much as I can before I go back next week. But, y'know, he's cute as always. He's always playing with my hair, hugging me now and then, and his kisses..," Daisy then finished laughing, "Hedoesitsowell!Ha ha!"

"Okay, good for you!" Peach replied.

The Toad opened the door. "Uh, hi Princess!" he greeted nervously.

"Hi Toadly! How are you tonight?" Peach greeted sweetly. "Oh and by the way, did you say hello to Daisy yet?"

"Oh! Um, no!" Toadly answered quickly. "Hi, Daisy!"

"Hi, Toadly," Daisy greeted warmly.

Peach and Daisy walked around. Toadly had sudden urge to pee. No,no!Comeon!MarioandLuigineedyoutostall!He then completely panicked. Ican'tIcan't!IneedtowarnMarioandLuigi,though!Toadly took out his phone and called Mario.

"Hold on Luigi, Toadly's calling." Mario picked up the phone and put it on speaker.

"Mario! Luigi! I can't stall! Be prepared!" Toadly yelled through the phone, then he hung up.

"Oh great!" Luigi said. "Alright then. Be prepared."

Meanwhile, Peach and Daisy were still in the hall entryway. "Daisy, you should look at my garden! It looks really beautiful now. There are so much more flowers," Peach suggested.

"Ooh, really?" Daisy asked, interested. "Okay!"

Peach guided Daisy into the door which led to the hallway where Luigi and Mario were.

Mario and Luigi were scared half to death when they heard jangling on the doorknob on the hall door. They whispered to each other:

"Let's make a run for it!" Mario said.

"No, no, let's just take it like men," Luigi protested.

"No, we sho-"

Peach and Daisy entered. Mario and Luigi turned their backs towards the garden door to hide the fishing poles. "Mario? Luigi? What are you doing here?" Peach asked surprisedly.

"Uhhh…," Mario stuttered. "Well, uh, we uhh…"

"We just wanted to visit…the Toads!" Luigi answered nervously. "Yeah!"

"Well, uh, just let" – Peach and Daisy headed towards the door – "us through," Daisy said.

Mario and Luigi blocked the way. Luigi nodded at Mario as if to say, Covermyfishingpoles.I'llberightback. Mario hid Luigi's poles. Luigi stood in front of Daisy, who was in front of Peach. "Uh, sweetie, I don't think that's a good idea. I mean, it's really cold out, y'know, I don't want my love getting sick on one of her visits, right?" he replied.

"It's not that cold out, Luigi, but thanks for worrying," Daisy said.

Daisy headed to the right, which was Luigi's spot when he was using the fishing poles. Luigi quickly moved to the right. "Uhh, Luigi," she said, as she headed to the left. Luigi walked to the left. Then she moved left and right, over and over. "Okay, Luigi!" Daisy boomed, obviously ticked off.

"What's wrong with you guys? You seem like you're covering up a murder," Peach said.

"Oh, there's a..uh..really big bear outside!" Mario answered.

"Huge!" Luigi added.

The girls gasped. "Yeah, so just stay inside." Mario said.

Mario handed Luigi his two fishing poles back. Both felt a tug on one of their poles. They both ignored it. "Yeah, just go up to your room, and just rest. We'll take care of it," Luigi continued.

"Okay then. Good night," Peach said.

Peach gave Mario a light peck on the cheek and she headed her way without waiting for Daisy. Daisy gave Luigi a kiss on the lips and followed Peach.

"That was close!" Luigi said, wiping his head.

"I know," Mario said.

"Hey wait, Mario," Luigi said.

"Yeah?"

"Why do we only have one pole each?"

"That's what he said? Uh, I don't kn- WAIT WHAT?"

The brothers looked at their hands and the door. Then they looked at each other in pale-faced horror. They ran through the doors and into the garden.

"MARIO! LUIGI! GET US OUT!" Kenny and Felix wailed.

Mario quickly unhooked them and untied them. "What happened?" Mario asked fearfully.

"Something took Mark and James!" Kenny wailed. "We couldn't see anything else because we gave no eye contact!"

Mario and Luigi looked at each other, as they both thought about what could happen to them if Peach knew it was their faults two Toads disappeared, and also about who was the villain who had taken the Toads…

TO BE CONTINUED..

Luigi's plan seemed to go perfectly well, until Peach and Daisy came to interrupt. Then, Mark and James had mysteriously disappeared while the Mario brothers were stalling. What could happen to these Toads? Who exactly took them? Can Mario and Luigi find out? Find out next chapter!
