EXT-MUSHROOM KINGDOM-DAY
(We cut to the gang in Toad's mini car as they finally arrive at the Mushroom Kingdom.)
Toad: Welcome to the Mushroom Kingdom!
Naruto & Sakura: (Amazed) Whoa...
Drake: This place looks awfully familiar, like something from a video game I used to play.
Tails: I've been here before, it looks livelier than usual.
Toad: That's because our annual kart race game will be happening in two days!
Toad: It's a special event in which people from around the world participate.
Drake: Oh, so it's like the Olympics.
Toad: COR-RECT!
Toad: Applications are still open and the winner will receive 10,000 gold coins!
(Drake likes the sound of that.)
Sakura: (Disappointed) Too bad we're not racers…
Drake: Maybe not, but first time for everything.
Drake: Stop right here.
Moments Later…
(The group arrives near a hotel.)
Toad: Here's a paper for the requirements to enter!
Toad: Enjoy your stay and have a nice day!
Toad: YIPPIE!
(Toad drives off.)
Drake: Huh, what a nice mutated mushroom that kid was.
Naruto: Are you serious about entering?
Drake: Heck yeah, I am, we need to raise our budget, speaking of which…
(Drake pulls outside quest sheets he got from Toad.)
Drake: I got jobs for each of you to do.
(The group is left puzzled.)
Drake: I'll explain after we get a room, trust me, you'll love it.
Elsewhere…
Peach's Castle-Medical Room-Evening 6:23 PM
NOTE: OK, Nintendo has always puzzled me with most of their characters being incapable of speech and I can never find a good answer as to why that is. I used to hate games like Smash Bros. when I was little because the characters don't spit out a full paragraph or two, but I've grown used to it over the years. Anyway, at first, I was going to have the Nintendo characters who don't talk speak, but I won't, just to keep it accurate as possible.
(Inside the medical room, Princess Peach sits on a wooden chair by Luigi's bedside.)
(Luigi tells Peach the bad news of not being able to find his brother and running into trouble fighting Eggman's machines, but managed to escape.)
Peach: I'm sure you did your best, Luigi, Mario would be happy that you've been searching day and night to find him.
(Luigi slowly nods in sadness, somewhat agreeing with Peach.)
Peach: I'm also glad knowing the empire is nowhere near this region, but just in case, our security has doubled.
Peach: If Mario doesn't show up to the race, will you be willing to take his place?
Note: Ha, I rhymed.
(Luigi thinks for a second, not too sure if he's worthy enough despite kart racing for many years now, but maybe it's because he doesn't feel up for it after his recent failure.)
Peach: I understand if you don't want to, but Daisy will be there as well, she'd be happy to see you racing again.
Luigi: (Shocked) EH!?
(Suddenly Luigi's face lights and he hops out of bed striking a fierce yet silly pose.)
Luigi: COUNT ME IN!
Peach: (Giggles) That's the spirit!
(Suddenly, one of the guards enters the room.)
Guard: Pardon the intrusion, your highness, but Princess Kitana is on the phone, she said she'd like a word with you on our kingdom's defenses.
Peach: Ugh, I told her that we're in good hands...very well, I'll be right there.
Peach: Rest up for tomorrow, Luigi, we have much to do.
Peach: Goodnight. (Exits)
(In the next scene, Luigi is back in bed, almost as if he never jumped up from it.)
(Moments later, the sleeping Luigi begins tossing and turning in bed from what seems to be a nightmare.)
(Suddenly, we get a quick flash of scenes from Luigi's POV, showing Mario, Naruto, Kurama, Dante, and 3 other shadowy figures.)
(We snap back to Luigi, who is now sweaty, panting, and completely confused, wondering whether it was just a nightmare or he's been given a sign with unknown forces at work.)
Luigi: (Panting) Mamma Mia...
(We cut to the next scene outside of the castle where Wario in his car looking on from the outer gates.)
(Wario snickers as he pulls off.)
