Chapter 3: Unexpected
------------------------
Three weeks had passed. Already, Bowser's Troops had completely taken over the once beautiful Mushroom Kingdom. Cities were burned to the ground. Lifeless bodies lay strewn about everywhere, covering the blood-stained land. Those who were not slaughtered were captured and forced into slavery.
No town was spared; the loyal inhabitants had refused to join Bowser's vile fleet, and they paid terrible consequences for it. Few people were scattered and left hiding, fearing for their precious lives. Many were missing, presumed dead. Among those were Mario, Luigi, Daisy, and Toad.
Others living in towns outside the Kingdom fled to more isolated places in the Mushroom World. Bowser had already conquered some other lands, such as Moleville and Seaside Town, which surrendered immediately without a fight.
The Princess was still held captive, however, she was treated as a "guest"—if it could even be called that. For the first time since the unfortunate first night, the cretin Bowser entered her room.
"Ah, my love, how are you this afternoon?" he asked casually. The princess was furious about his presence.
"What are you doing here?!" she demanded, "You stay the heck away from me!"
"Relax, Princess, I'm not going to hurt you." He moved his gruesome claw towards her shoulder. She shoved it away and faced him defensively.
"Yeah, right!" she shouted, "You said……" Suddenly, her face flushed very white. Immediately, she rushed to the bathroom and vomited.
"Are you all right?" Bowser asked, but she continued. "Kamek!" he shouted, "Come here at once!" Before the words could escape his mouth, the head Magikoopa entered the room.
"Yes, sir?" he asked.
"The princess is ill; take her to our Medical Area."
"Yes, sir." Kamek ran over to the frail princess.
"Get away from me!" she screamed. He pointed his wand at her, and she began to glow. "Help!" she shrieked. In the blink of an eye, Peach disappeared. She had been teleported to the Medical Area.
------------------------
A few hours had passed, and Peach warily opened her eyes. She found herself lying in her bed, back in her room. Suddenly she felt ill again and rushed to the bathroom. After she finished vomiting, she glanced at herself in the mirror. She looked terrible and noticed that it looked like she had gained a few pounds.
*Oh great,* she sighed, *I barf my head off and gain weight. This is fun…*
She lay back down, still not feeling that great. There was a rap on her door. Kamek slowly entered and tiptoed over to Peach, trying not to wake her deliberately. But he noticed she already was.
"Good, you're awake," he said.
"Uhhghh…!" Peach threw the blankets back and stared at the Magikoopa indignantly. "What?! I have a headache…" She put a hand over her face.
"We finished testing you…to see why you were ill, and we found something…interesting…" He glanced at her cautiously.
"What?" she moaned.
"I don't know how else to tell you this…but the tests showed that there's another life form inside of you." She stared at him blankly. "You're pregnant."
"What?!!" she screamed in disbelief, "What do you mean?! How is that possible?! Oh my gosh…no…!" She closed her eyes and shook her head in dismay.
"This is an amazing situation," Kamek continued apathetically, "You see, this is the first human-Koopa crossover. It's never happened before." The princess ignored him.
"Does Bowser know of this?" she queried.
"Actually, I was just going to tell him."
"You are not to tell him," she stated coldly.
"Sorry, but I only take orders from His Highness…" Kamek bluntly replied. The princess fiercely picked up the unsuspecting Koopa by his collar, lifting him off the ground.
"Listen," she yelled softly, "You better not say a word about this, so help me, or I will break your bony, little behind so fast…" She peered fiercely into his thick lenses.
"Y…y…yes, Princess…" he stammered.
"That's better." She calmly put him back down, and he dashed off out of her room.
