Ok! In the reviews last time, I got a VERY VERY good question! VERY good question…and that was, "What about Mario?" Well! Let me tell you! =P You're in luck because…that's what I was planning to have in this chapter LOL! And thank you, DarkMagnus ^.^ You're such a sweety. I LOVE YOU TOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!! LOL (I seem to love lotsa sweeties) Suh'anyway, Marth has one thing on his mind…Peach…

            Marth rushed down the sidewalk, bumping into people, but he hardly took notice. Where was Peach? He hadn't paid attention which way the Cloud Taxi was going when he went to Peach's Castle…he was too busy keeping himself on top of it. Even if he had paid any attention, it wouldn't have mattered since they were above the clouds and he couldn't seen anything, anyway.

            "Hey Marth, wait!" Came Link's voice behind him.

            Marth looked around, and saw a very happy Link and Zelda holding hands, running up to him. "Hey. I'm really happy for you." Marth smiled at Link and then Zelda, but his eyes lingered on Zelda for a moment before turning back to the direction he was going.

            "No, wait. Let us go with you to see Peach. I'm sure I can convince her to the truth." Zelda said, stepping forward.

            "That'd be wonderful…but I don't know where her Castle is, and it'd take ages to get there anyway since we don't have a Cloud Taxi or anything." Marth said sadly.

            "We know that…but Link thought ahead of time. Not exactly for you…but for us. He had couple a few horses and a carriage to let us ride home in, right after he had asked me." Zelda smiled.

            "Where?" Marth asked, looking back to the stadium and not seeing anything.

            "Around to the back. Of course I couldn't have them waiting in the front! Surely Zelda would have spotted them." Link laughed and kissed Zelda's cheek.

            Marth nodded, "Great timing, Link. I hate to spoil your ride, but I really need to get to Peach. Surely you know the way, Zelda?"

            "Of course! Let's go." Zelda said, turning on her heal and running, which Marth took to great liking. He wanted to get there as soon as possible and was hoping that Zelda wouldn't walk, even though this was her special day and probably would've wanted to concentrate on it and take it slow.

            Once they reached the back, Marth saw two dark brown horses hooked up to a small black carriage, a tiny man (Almost reminding Marth of a Toad from Peach's Castle) in the front, holding onto the reigns. Zelda jumped in and Link got in after her. Marth got in and waited for Link to make the signal, and he did.

            "Go ahead. And make it fast." Link said to the small man. The small man shook the reigns and got the horses to a steady trot.

            "Faster, if you please." Marth said anxiously.

            "I'm sorry, but these horses are not for galloping, only slow steady rides." The tiny man replied.

            "Move over!" Marth was at the end of his rope. He picked up the tiny man and threw himself into the front seat, tossed the man back into Zelda's lap and shook the reigns fiercely.

            "No, no, Sir! You cannot do that!!!!" The small man shouted as the carriage shook and squeaked; sounding like it could fall apart at any given moment.

            "Well, I'm doing it! Zelda, which way!?" Marth yelled back, the wind rushing in his ears.

            "LEFT!!" Zelda screamed as they had almost smashed into the building. They did somewhat of a U-turn up a spiraling road.

            "Alright, where next?"  Marth asked as a fork in the road was coming.

            "Bear left again, then stay on that road. We should be there soon at this speed." Zelda called up to Marth.

            Marth did what she said. He took the left dirt road and galloped along the dirt highway.

            Soon they all saw a Castle approaching. It was obviously Peach's. Marth gasped in such a way that made Zelda think he could've passed out any minute. Marth was so happy to be there…he quickly leapt from the carriage before the horses stopped and burst through the doors, leaving Zelda and Link to scramble out behind them and follow.

            "Oh…Oh dear…My poor…poor horses…" The little man moaned as he finally hopped out of the carriage and went to tend to the heavily breathing horses.

            "PEACH! PEACH, WHERE ARE YOU!?" Marth called through the large rooms and halls…was anyone here? His voice echoed for at least ten seconds straight before dying off.

            "Excuse me, Marth?" A little Toad scurried up to him.

            "Toad! Toad, tell me where Peach is!" Marth said, almost sounding angry.

            "Toad does not know where Peach is!" Toad exclaimed.

            "TELL ME WHERE SHE IS!!!" Marth shouted, picking Toad up and shaking him. Marth fell silent, realizing what he was doing, and set Toad down carefully. "I'm…I'm sorry, Toad…I just…really need to know where she is…"

            "It is alright, Marth. Toad does not know where Princess Peach went. She came back to the castle and Toad said….Toad said, "Princess Peach! Where are you going?" Because Princess Peach was crying waterfalls – yes she was. – and she says to Toad, she says "I don't know…" and so Princess Peach ran into her room and came out with a large suit case full of stuff hanging from the sides, and she ran out the doors without speaking to anyone a word of where she was going." Toad informed Marth sullenly.

            "Oh no…" Marth turned 180 and sprinted out the doors, almost knocking Zelda and Link right off their feet.

            "Did you see her aleady??" Link asked.

            "No…she's gone…" Marth said quietly, then glanced at the horses. Suddenly he made a run towards them, accidentally knocking the little man down while unhooking one.

            "Where are you going!?" Zelda asked, concerned.

"I'm going to look for her! You two take the other horse…or do whatever you have to, but FIND HER!!!" Marth hopped up onto the horse easily and slipped his feet into the stirrups and kicked the horse's sides forcefully. "YAH!" He yelled, and took off like a bullet towards the closest village.

"Have you seen a beautiful blonde girl in a pink dress run by here?? Princess Peach? Do you know her!?" Marth asked hopefully to many of the villagers, but no one knew…He hurried to the next village…no one knew either…he galloped back to Nintendo City…a few people had seen her, but they didn't know where she was headed.

Soon the sun was going down, and the horse Marth was on was dead on it's feet. Marth jumped off the horse, hit rear hurt and he was hungry as anything. He walked over to a barrel filled with water outside the door of a restaurant and dunked himself.  He whipped his head out quickly, the water cold, and shook his head like a dog, his wet hair sticking to his face. He ran his hand through his hair and noticed that his tiara wasn't there anymore. He looked into the barrel and saw it glistening at the bottom under the moonlight. "Oh man…" He groaned and reached into the barrel, but the barrel was too tall. "Urg…" He growled, then took a deep breath and launched himself into it, his eyes opened in the water. He came back up…when he went in, his body had blocked the light and he couldn't see or feel it. He was so mad that he didn't care what anyone else thought. He upturned the barrel and caught his tiara in the nick of time before it hit the muddy ground, and shoved it on his head.

"Marth." Whispered a voice in his head.

'It's Zelda!' He thought…'she can read my mind…' So he thought to ask her. 'Have you found Peach yet?!'

"No…We've looked everywhere…" Zelda's whisper came.

"DARNIT!" Marth shouted, punching the restaurant's wall with all the force he had, leaving a rather large dent. He wanted to break down and cry in shame, but restrained as the restaurant's owner came out.

"No, no, sir! Do not punch the wall!" The owner gasped suddenly, spotting his large barrel of water, now suddenly empty. "NO NO, SIR! YOU WILL GO GET ME WATER FROM THE WELL!" He shouted at Marth.

Marth back away, then jumped up on the horse's back again, and took off.

"Marth…just head back to your hotel…we'll look tomorrow, ok?" Zelda said, pity straining in her whispered voice.

'I want to keep looking…' Marth thought. He had to admit he was pretty tired, and if he wasn't careful, his poor horse would fall any moment. It wasn't used to galloping thirteen hours straight.

"No…Marth, go home. We'll find her sooner or later. We'll continue looking tomorrow…" Zelda's voice said.

Marth growled, but finally gave in. He headed towards his hotel room, his eyes watering. He didn't want to cry, but it seemed it was the only possible thing for him to do right. "What have I done?" Marth whispered to himself, unlocking his hotel door. He collapsed on the first hard bed, but something caught his eye. He looked up…there was…a crown sticking up out of the bed covers on the next bed. His eyes widened and his heart leapt. He hurriedly got up and rushed to the next bed. He parted the covers from a fair beautiful face, surrounded by golden locks of hair.

"Peach…" Marth breathed. He ran his hand gently along her face. She seemed more beautiful now than ever. He leaned down and kissed her lips ever so gently.

"Wake up Sleeping Beauty…" He whispered…
