Channel 4 News Center - 9:00:00 AM

Announcer: Good morning Mushroom Kingdom! It's time for the morning news with Dan and Kathy as your anchormen, Phil the sports reported, and Stanly reporting weather. Now for the news

Dan: Good morning on this great day. Well as everyone knows our beloved Princess Peach will finally become Queen of the Mushroom Kingdom, but things have taken a turn for the worse

Kathy: Reports from the kings top advisor Tim, we have gotten word that Bowser has kidnapped Princess Peach. We now go to our correspondent Bill, who is working out the info on this breaking story. Bill

Bill: Thank you Kathy. I'm now standing at the gates of the Mushroom Kingdom Castle where you can see a Lakitu Cloud is currently returning to the castle. Word is that the Princess is safe and sound, though will this event affect the popularity level of the Kings decision? Only time will tell, back to you Kathy

Kathy: Thanks Bill. Now to Phil with weather

As the weather man continued on saying that there was going to be heavy rain tonight, the King just stood there stunned on how Tim got him back

King: Somebody call up the news station right now and tell them that asshole Tim doesn't work for us anymore

Everyone scrabbled as the King started walking towards the Kitchen

King: If anyone wants me, I'll be getting some breakfast

But he suddenly stopped as herd heard

Peach: Daddy?

He turned around

King: Peach?

The two stood there for a second, and then ran towards each other. They locked into a hug for a whole minute

King: Daddy, I missed you

Peach: I missed you too

Yoshi: Isn't that sweet

Mallow: (A tear comes to his eye) Yah...

Yoshi: It's okay. Just *sniff* let it out

Mallow: Okay

Mallow and Yoshi hugged each other and started to cry out loud. Mario just stood there cleaning his cap

Mario: I'm just glad to see it's all over

Toad: I wouldn't say so

Mario: Huh?

Toad: I got reports that one of your old enemies is in town

Mario: You have to be kidding me?

Toad: No, and besides. Bowser is still on the loose

Mario: Who might be after the princess this time?

Toad: I'm still looking into that

Mario: Hmm. I remember her. Don't worry. I think I can take her

Just as Mario was heading for the front door, it busts open with a young lady standing there. The officers panic and pulled their fire flowers out

Woman: What the?!

Mario: Hold your fire. It's Daisy

She fainted because of the shock of all the police officers aiming their guns at her

Mario: Someone get her a chair

Mushroom Kingdom Slums - 9:14:10 AM

A small, pink car drives up and next to the bar. Birdo walks out and in where she is pleasantly greeted

Bowser: Welcome Birdo

Birdo: Hello Wart. So how are we going to do this job?

Bowser: Well here, talk to my advisor Luigi

Luigi: Hello

Birdo: WHAT THE!!!

She attacks Luigi by picking him up and throwing him through the billiards table

Bowser: Wait, he's on our side!

Birdo: Really? Are you kidding me?

Luigi: No, its true...

Birdo: Sorry about that

Luigi: It happens

Birdo: So what do you have for me?

Luigi: Here

He hands her a small watch

Birdo: What's this?

Luigi: It's a miniature version of hologram machine I have at home. It will disguise you as a Yoshi so you can sneak in

Birdo: A Yoshi?

Luigi: Sorry, but that's all the thing could handle. I don't have much memory, and of course you could easily pass as a Yoshi

Birdo: I guess

Luigi: Good. Do you think you'll need some kind of weapon too?

Birdo: No, I have this

She points her nose and fires aiming at the dart board. It hits the bull's eye and the entire wall blows up

Bowser: Impressive

Birdo: Thanks

Luigi: Now get going, the ceremony starts in about 2 hours

Birdo: Got you, but before I go to the castle I still have one more thing I need to take care of. I'll be at the castle around 10:30 that's about the time they let people in the ceremony anyway

Luigi: Good idea

She turns on the watch and turns into a pink Yoshi

Bowser: Wow! That costume really works

She hops back into her car and drives off

Mushroom Castle - 9:19:06 AM

Daisy starts to wake up

Daisy: Wow, what happened

Mario: You just fainted

Daisy: Oh, I guess I'm just worried about Luigi. Tell me Mario, did you find him

Sweat drops ran down everyone's head

Mario: Uh, yah

Suddenly, Mario's stomach started to rumble

Mario: Maybe we should get something to eat first

Daisy: Sounds good. I haven't had any breakfast yet too

Mario: Does anyone else want to come along?

Everyone else declined

Peach: Yah, I have to get cleaned up for the ceremony. Just look at me

Everyone looked, what was sort of funny was the fact that she was still in her night gown, which was badly torn up. Also, her face was covered in dirt

Yoshi: Wow, I've never seen this side of you before

Peach: Hey, stop looking at me!

She turns around and runs upstairs to her room

Mario: Come on Daisy, let's go

Daisy: All right

Mario: Could we take your car. Mine's kind of out of service

Daisy: Fine

They hopped in a drove off

9:31:22 AM

As they drove down Toad's Turnpike towards the business district of the Mushroom Kingdom, Daisy looked at Mario who also was a total wreck

Daisy: What happened to you Mario?

Mario: I spent the last eight hours trying the rescue Peach. It wasn't easy

As they drove Mario told as much as he could to Daisy, excluding the part about Luigi

Daisy: So all that went on

Mario: Yah. Before we go to the restaurant, could we stop by my house really quick?

Daisy: Sure. Maybe Luigi is home

A sweat drop went down Mario's back. She parked in front of the house and Mario hopped out of the car

Mario: I'll be back in 10 minutes or so. Wait here

Daisy: Send Luigi out here if he's home

Mario: Sure

As Mario ran to the house, he waved to Daisy that he wasn't home. A frown came to her face as she tried to think of something. Then it came to her as she picked up her cell phone and called up Luigi

Mushroom Kingdom Slums - 9:44:20 AM

Bowser and Luigi are sitting drink another cold one

Luigi: Yah know Bowser, what are we still doing here?

Bowser: Good place to hide. There's so much crime around here, so the cops are always busy

Luigi: I guess

Suddenly, Bowser's shell started to shake

Luigi: What the hell is that?

Bowser reached into his shell and pulled out a cell phone

Bowser: I forgot I had this. I set it on vibrate so it wouldn't cause a disturbance later. Here's your cell phone Luigi

Luigi: Thanks (Answers phone) Hello?

Daisy: Luigi?

Luigi: Daisy?

Daisy: Oh thank goodness you're alive. I was starting to worry that something happened to you. Where are you?

Luigi: Well... Uh... I can't say...

Daisy: What do you mean?

Luigi: Trust me, you just can't know right now. We'll talk later, okay

Daisy: Okay. See you later

Luigi: I love you

Daisy: I love you too...

She hung up the phone, same with Luigi. As he put down the cell phone Bowser gave him one of those looks

Luigi: What?

Bowser: As I've said before. Don't let her interfere

Luigi: Right

Bowser: And just to make sure

Bowser picks up the cell phone and crushes it in his hands

Luigi: Was that really necessary?

Bowser: Trust me; it's for your own good

Mario's house - 9:52:47 AM

Mario runs out of his house wearing new clothing

Daisy: Ready to go?

Mario: Sure

It was a short drive to the resturaunt as they walked in and ordered some food. As they ate

Daisy: I called Luigi while you were changing

Mario choked

Mario: What?

Daisy: Yah, so Luigi's on some secret mission, huh?

Mario: Uh. (Thinking) Should I tell her? No, it would break her heart. (Talking) Sure, he's on some top secret mission to try and take down Bowser

Daisy: I didn't think Luigi would be up to doing that

Mario: Well, he is so it would be wise if you stay out the best you can

Daisy: All right

Unknown to them, in the next booth a pink Yoshi was having a nice breakfast when she over herd the whole thing

Birdo: (Thinking) that's odd, could Luigi be planning to betray Bowser. Nah, besides how could someone like Luigi get a girl like that

She continued to eat not giving what Mario said a second thought

10:00:00 AM

TO BE CONTINUED...

Sorry, this is again one of those chapters where there isn't any real action. Just plot development, but don't worry the next chapter will have plenty of suspense...
