Chapter 2: The start of the mission

Mushroom Kingdom

It was a beautiful morning in Mushroom Kingdom, the sky was clear and the birds could be seen flying freely, however, not everyone watched the landscape, because there was much movement in Toad town, the nearest town to the castle, its inhabitants were going to work, some were heading to the castle, others travel out to Mushroom city and some Toads were traveling to Sea Side.

Despite all the hubbub of the town, there was a small house on the outskirts of this where there was peace and quiet, the owners of this house were relaxing in the garden sitting in chairs, it was nothing more and nothing less than brothers Mario and Luigi.

—How much peace and tranquility this day, don't you think Luigi? — asked Mario while taking a glass with refreshing drink.

—You said it bro — Luigi answered, imitating Mario as he also had a glass of the same drink.

—I would lament if there was an emergency today, the day is very quiet and we aren't having problems with our enemies for the last couple of weeks.

—Do you think that Bowser's movements a few days ago are dangerous?

—Bowser's movements are always dangerous, but I dare to say that even someone like Bowser would rather rest today.

—You're right Mario — Luigi said as he finished his drink — I'll go for another drink, do you want me to bring you more Mario?

—Okey dokey.

They continued resting in the garden for a long time until Mario got up, entered the house and took his kart's keys.

— Where are you going Mario?

—I'll go visit Professor Elvin Gadd, remember that long ago he told us that he had discovered something new, I think he must have a preview of his research and I would like to see what it is, and I'll buy some spaghetti for food.

—Good idea Mario, I'm eager to know the findings of Professor, and I want some spaghetti.

—Professor's house is a little far away, but I'll return just in time for lunch.

—No doubt it bro, not for nothing you have all these first place trophies from those kart tournaments.

—We win together most of those trophies Luigi, but that's another story, we'll see in the mealtime.

—Have a good trip Mario.

Mario turned on the engine of his kart and made his way to the house of Professor Elvin Gadd, meanwhile Luigi was preparing to take a nap when at that moment was approaching a Toad messenger from the castle.

—"At last I came" — thought the messenger Toad , the voyage from the castle to Mario and Luigi's house had been tired, but he had no time to rest — Luigi, you need to come immediately with Mario to the castle, Princess Peach requests an audience with both of you.

—Sorry, but Mario is out, he will return to lunch.

—It can't be, both of you must come immediately, we must reach Mario with your kart Luigi.

—I'll repeat, Mario will return to lunch, all we have to do is wait...

—Hurry up Luigi! — The messenger Toad was in Luigi's kart with the keys.

—Oooh — Luigi exclaimed.

Luigi and Toad sped off to catch up with Mario, the house was left alone, however 2 shapes had been spying behind a bush.

—Whenever one of the morons of the castle brings a message to those losers means they'll go on a mission.

—That's right Wario, and you know what that means right?

—Of course I do — said Wario as he watched Waluigi with a look of complicity.

—Well, let's go ahead to the castle, they'll not going to take too long to arrive, so we must be prepared when they arrive, and if we hurry we could get a few things from town, we must be prepared.

—I'm smelling those treasures — Wario said as he headed to the castle.

—Me too — exclaim Waluigi — we can't let go this gold opportunity.

Equestria

It was a cool morning in Ponyville, the ponies walked quietly through the streets, some on their way to the market to buy fruits and vegetables, others headed to the spa, bowling or café, school-age ponies were on their way to school, but there was a friendly-looking pegasus, she carried a small bag whose design had several bubbles, apparently she was heading to Golden Oaks Library, the house of a unicorn named Twilight Sparkle, and his assistant Spike, a young dragon.

—Spike, lunch is ready? — Twilight Sparkle asked.

—One moment Twilight, these omelets cannot be rushed.

—I know Spike, and I thank you for preparing omelets, but we still have much work to do, we must arrange this tower of books — Twilight said while pointing to a unstable tower of books — at any time it could fall all and would be a disaster.

—At least you found what you were looking for in those books?

—Not really Spike, the books that I have here don't have enough information, I will have to travel to Canterlot to find...

—But Twilight — was interrupted by Spike — the books we had in our home in Canterlot are the same as they are here in Ponyville.

—I know that Spike, but I will seek in the archives of Star Swirl the bearded, there are many ancient writings and probably I will find what I'm looking for.

—I hope you're not going to inspect those files as we did last time — Spike said with a tone of mockery.

—Please Spike, I'm not joking — said Twilight, because she hadn't forgotten what happened long ago, when her future self warned her not to worry about the future and she had done exactly the opposite, even had gone to the archives of Star Swirl of an unusual way.

—Look Twilight, I... — Spike didn't end because in that moment the doorbell rang and Twilight went to the entrance to see who was knocking on the door.

—Hello Derpy!

—Good Morning Twilight Sparkle!

—Come in — Twilight said while holding open the door so Derpy could get in — Spike and I were about to have lunch, will you join us?

—Yes, thank you very much Twilight Sparkle.

—Spike, we have a guest!

—Roger Twilight.

The three sat down to eat the omelets that Spike had cooked, apparently they were delicious and all ate more than one omelet, accompanied by apple juice and a muffin at the end.

—What brings you here Derpy? — Twilight asked as she finished her muffin.

—I bring a letter from Canterlot — Derpy answered.

—From Canterlot?

—Yes, from Canterlot.

—How strange, normally only princess Celestia sends me letters, and just thanks to Spike, who sends the letter Derpy?

—Princess Luna.

—What, Princess Luna? — Twilight ask incredulous.

—That's right — Derpy answered, turning to take his bag to get the letter of Twilight — I have it in my bag, I left it next to that tower of books.

—Watch out Derpy!

In less than a second Derpy was under a mountain of books, Twilight and Spike rushed to help Derpy.

—Oops, my bad —said Derpy — I was just going to take my bag but I ended covered of books, I just don't know what went wrong.

—You okay Derpy? — Twilight asked a little worried as he pulled books from Derpy — I'm so sorry, it was my fault, I shouldn't have amassed many books.

—Don't worry, I'm fine.

When Twilight and Spike finished arranging the books, Derpy give Twilight her letter that it was, indeed, sent by Princess Luna.

—Many thanks for the letter Derpy, and I'm sorry about the books.

—Don't worry Twilight Sparkle, it was also my fault.

Derpy was heading to the entrance, accompanied by Twilight and Spike.

—Well Derpy, thanks again and have a nice day.

—Thank you for the food, those were delicious omelets Spike.

—I agree with Derpy, those omelets were amazing Spike.

—Heh heh, thanks Derpy — said Spike something blushing, usually he only received good reviews for his food from Twilight, and that was nothing new to him, but receive a good review from Derpy was unexpected.

—Goodbye friends! — Derpy was leaving.

—Goodbye Derpy! — Twilight and Spike responded in unison

Twilight and Spike went to the library and Twilight closed the door, took the letter and watched it intently.

—What do you think it says? — Spike asked with much curiosity.

—Spike, I don't know, I don't usually talk much with Princess Luna, but if I got a letter just before galloping gala then it must be important.

Twilight opened the letter and began to read, as she reads more, her face was taking on a tone of concern, even beads of sweat dripping were visible from her head.

— It cannot be — Twilight exclaimed, Spike was very nervous.

—Twilight, what happened?!

— Something very serious Spike, Equestria is in danger!

—Equestria is in danger!? But how!?

—The princess will explain us tonight — said Twilight, she was quieter but no less worried.

—The princess is coming tonight?

— Yes, hurry up Spike, we must arrange all this mess.

—Very good Twilight.

—Anything that says the princess tonight possibly could define the fate of Equestria.
