(Third Person Omniscient PoV)
The ringing of wedding bells could be heard all throughout Sarasa Land as citizens gathered around to witness their beloved princess marry her plumber. Most of the kingdom had turned up. Just as the king had promised, there were caterers from all over the kingdom, the best bands joined together to play, parades and festivities stretching out all across the kingdom, and everything else he could think of to make this day the best of his little girl's life. And, as promised, a shining gold statue of the two dancing stood proudly in Daisy circuit.
The proud king walked the beautiful bride down the aisle. Daisy's heart pounded with excitement as she grinned at her groom, dressed up nicely in his new suit, his hair neatly combed back.
He watched his breathtaking bride stride toward him. Her beautiful auburn hair flowed down her shoulders, perfectly framing her gorgeous face. Her big blue eyes and her shining smile made him hope he wasn't dreaming. The giant flower broach on her chest made him smile. It was nice to see she had had her favorite design added to her dress. He looked over to the crowd of people watching. His whole family had shown up to watch him marry his princess.
Mario smiled at his own princess, feeling so happy for his brother, that he would get to know the happiness he felt with Peach. Peach smiled back, knowing that her friends were starting a new chapter in their lives. A very pleasant and blessed chapter.
William stood off to the side with the rest of the castle guards, reluctantly placed beside Mr. L. This was something Luigi and Daisy had insisted on. He believed this was only to punish him for not inviting them to his own wedding. They knew how he felt about Mr. L being hired as a guard.
"What!" he had cried, as the king introduced him to the newest Sarasa Land castle guard. "How could you possibly hire him to protect the castle? Are you forgetting what he did?"
"Are you forgetting how he saved Daisy?" the king had countered.
"This is insane! I will not stand for it!" William had declared. "If he's working here, I quit!"
"Don't worry blondey, we already found your replacement," Mr. L had smirked. "Oh, and by the way, I forgive you for attacking me before."
William had scowled, and the king had patted him on the back. "Come on William, I know you boys can learn to work together."
Mr. L had nodded. "Yeah, come on, Billy."
Now L stood proudly between the sleepy guard he had fooled, to whom the king had given one more chance, and the blonde guard he had hated so much during the journey. Of course, he still did, but now as least he didn't have to urge to punch him every time he saw him. He glanced into the audience and noticed Ms. D talking with William's wife, Lexi, which surprised him, because he thought she was just as unbearable as her husband. But, as long as D was happy…
He smiled, thinking of her, and everything Daisy had done for both of them. She had gotten him this job, and even convinced her father to let them stay in his lakeside cabin. Only temporarily, of course, until he could afford to get a place of his own.
Things had worked out so, so well, and they could have turned out so, so different if Dimentio had cared enough to teleport after them. Instead, he waited with Nastasia and the rest of the minions, looking for new prey and trying to convince O'Chunks to tell Nassy how he felt about her.
Someday, their souls would be judged by Jaydes as either evil or simply misguided. For now, she continued looking for a hero who could capture Tatanga's spirit.
Now Luigi and Daisy stood in front of their family and friends along with the kingdom of Sarasa Land, and everything was right. They were finally going to be married, and all the trauma and woes from before were over. It seemed that just as they were getting their happily ever after, everyone else was as well.
Starting a new, happy chapter in their life meant closing an old one, which they sealed with a kiss.
Well everyone, there it is! I hope it was worth the wait!
