p style="text-align: left;" Entry 3-The Mushroom Kingdom Visitbr /br /The parents came to pick up their kids. Fox and Peach walked out together. They then saw Peppy and ran to him. Peppy: "Hey, Fox, how's school?" Fox: "It was fine. Peppy, this is my new friend, Princess Toadstool Peach." Peach: "How do you do?" Peppy: "Well, I'll be, you made a friend on your first day. I knew it was a good idea to bring you to this school, after all." Fox; "Yeah…oh, yeah! I'm planning on visiting her entire kingdom. Is it Ok if I could go?" Peppy: "Why, of, course, you can go, Fox. I am so proud of you. I bet your father would have been proud, too." Fox: "Great!" Peach: "Will you come with us, Peppy?" Peppy: "Why, sure, I would love to. You're such a friendly, young girl." Peach: "Of, course. I'm a princess. I have to be and besides, it is my pleasure to be nice to a lot of people, especially someone who is looking after my new friend." Peppy: "That's mighty wonderful of you." Just then, Fox looked over and saw a guy with a mushroom head. Fox: "Hey, who's that funny looking, mushroom-headed guy?" Peach turned her head and looked towards the guy. Peach: "Oh, that's just Toadsworth, my guardian. He's hired by my parents to look after me because my parents are always so busy." Fox: "You mean they're busy all the time?" Peach: "Oh, yes, they are the king and queen of the Mushroom Kingdom, after all." Fox: "Well, that makes sense." Peach: "Come on, I'll introduce you to him." They walked closer towards Toadsworth. Toadsworth: "Ah, young Princess Peach, how was school?" Peach: "It was wonderful. I've met some new friends. This is Fox and this is his guardian, Peppy." Fox: "Hello." Peppy: "Mighty nice to meet you." Toadsworth: "Ah, a pleasure it is for the princess to have some new friends, especially some who are from that poor, devastated planet Corneria." Fox: "You know about what happened?" Toadsworth: "But of course. Everyone in the Mushroom Kingdom knows about what the inhabitants of that planet have endured." Peppy: "It was very nice of your people to allow us pay a visit to this place after we discovered it." Toadsworth: "Why, thank you for sharing some of your technology with us, good sir. We hope to one day form a union with your planet and help you in bringing you back to your former glory." Peppy: "I look forward to that immensely." Peach: "Toadsworth. I have decided to issue Fox and Peppy a tour of the entire kingdom, that is if you don't mind, of course." Toadsworth: "I most certainly do not mind, young princess. The more the merrier." Peach: "Terrific! Let's get going!" And so they left. /p
p style="text-align: left;" Peppy, Fox, Peach and Toadsworth soon arrived at the Mushroom Kingdom. Peach: "Well, here we are." Fox and Peppy got a moment to look around. A lot of the residents they saw had mushroom heads. Peach: "So, what do you think?" Fox: "Well, I can see why this place is called the Mushroom Kingdom." Peach: "Ha, ha, very funny, Fox." Peppy: "(chuckle) Kids can be so funny. Now, let's get started." So, Peach took Fox and Peppy through the entire kingdom. They visited every part of the town. It was a huge town filled with so many things to look at. They many different people, all different kinds. They even saw creatures they've never seen before. Some looked cute, some looked weird, some looked funny. They discovered new surprises. But the only thing that wasn't surprising is that every people they met knew about the story of their home world./p
p style="text-align: left;" No words described how happy they were, except that they felt much better. Peppy: "Why, I've never seen such a peaceful place like this, but Corneria." Fox: "Yeah, these people are as kind as ours. I'm amazed in how many of them know about the story of our home world." Peach: "Well, your home world's the talk of the kingdom." Toadsworth: "Indeed, we have dreaded the day we heard about the destruction of many of your civilizations on your planet. It was most disheartening." Fox: "Yeah. I don't remember what happened that day because I was still a baby. I've been so sad and I felt so alone." Peppy: "Well, I am so glad you found a friend as nice as Peach." Fox: "Well, she actually found me. I didn't even try." Toadsworth: "Oh, dear, look at the time. Princess, I do believe that your parents, the king and queen, would be concerned about your whereabouts by now." Peach: "Hm, I agree with you, Toadsworth. Let's head back before they send someone after us. Fox, Peppy, you don't mind if we bring you back to the castle with us, do you?" Peppy: "Why, not at all. We would love to see your castle. Right, Fox?" Fox: "Absolutely." Peach: "Ok, then, let's go now." And so they did. /p
p style="text-align: left;" They soon arrived back at the castle. There, Fox and Peppy took 1 glance at the place. Peach: "So, what do you think?" Fox: "Wow…it's beautiful." Peach: "Yeah. It will be mine someday, but for now, I'll just be patient and let my parents take care of everything for me." Peppy: "I'm quite pleased with you, Fox. I did believe you would be able to find someone you would call your friend, especially at a school as friendly the one I decided to send you to." Fox: "Well…I'm not so sure about that school being completely friendly, but I was glad to be there." Peppy: "Although, I am quite worried about leaving you there when I left. I just hope things will be Ok for you if you are to keep going to that school."br /Peach: "Don't worry, Mr. Peppy sir, I'll be sure to look after him. I'm going to be the ruler of this entire kingdom, someday; I have to learn how to take care of people." Peppy: "And I'm sure you'll do a fine job, young Peach. Be sure that he stays out of trouble." Peach nodded once. Peach: "Yes, sir." Peppy: "You know, Fox here is just like his father James. He's going to grow up and become what his dad use to have been." Fox: "That's right, I'm going to pilot a ship and make that Andross bad guy pay for what he did to my dad and my home world." Peach: "It's nice to have ambitions, but my dad told me that holding on to revenge is unhealthy." Toadsworth: "Quite right, young Fox, especially when it's a life long passion." Fox: "Yeah, Peppy told me not to emphasize too much on revenge, but I never knew my father because of Andross." Peppy: "Yes, I'll never forget James. Even after that day." Peach: "What day, Mr. Peppy sir?" Peppy: "The day when James did not make it out alive." Toadsworth: "Pardon me, good sir, but you know of exactly what happened that day?" Peppy: "Are you kidding me? I was in it." Toadsworth: "Hmm…this may sound completely irrelevant, but I have not gotten your last name. Care to tell me what it is?" Peppy: "Why, of course. It's Hare." Toadsworth: "Wait a moment! You're Peppy Hare, the sole survivor of that dreadful day!?" Peppy nodded. Toadsworth: "Dear me! I thought that name sounded familiar! You must tell me everything that happened to you that day." Peppy: "Well, I remember it being the day our people picked up strange activity on this planet that none of us have even seen before. James, myself and another teammate of ours, Pigma, flew over towards that planet to investigate it. Upon our arrival, Pigma, that double-crossing pig betrayed us and turned me and James over to Andross, himself." Peach: "Oh, no!" Peppy: "Right. I barely made it out of that gruesome situation alive, but James…he did not survive." Peach: "How terrible…" Peppy: "I would often ask myself over and over if there was something I could have done to save him. I still recall the last thing James told me: to get out alive and be there for his son. Oh…if only there was a way for me to have changed the outcome, things would have been different." Fox: "Don't blame yourself, Peppy. It wasn't your fault. It's like you said; if Pigma hadn't betrayed you and dad, all of this would be over." Peach: "Well, I'm sorry to hear all of that, but it sounded to me like Fox's dad wanted you to live, for Fox and I'm glad you're here." Peppy: "Well, that was mighty nice of you, Peach. Thank you." Peach: "Why, you're welcome, Mr. Peppy sir. (Holding out her hand) Let's be here for Fox together." Peppy hesitated then smiled. Peppy: "Yes, let's." And he grabbed her hand. Peach: "Come on, let's go see my parents." /p
p style="text-align: left;" They soon found themselves inside the castle. There, Peach introduced Fox and Peppy to her parents. They exchanged a few words, here and there. They gave them a tour of the castle and invited them to a royal banquet. The dinner they had was delicious and vegetarian, even though it looked like meat. They spent many hours together. Soon enough, Fox and Peppy returned home. Peppy: "You have an interesting friend, Fox." Fox /br /p
