CHAPTER ONE: THE SUMMONS
It had been about two years since the last time Bowser had kidnapped princess Peach and Mario was starting to run out of ideas of how to spend his time. He had taken up poker and won the mushroom kingdom's invitational poker tournament all three times he was invited. During this time he also learned his ABC's and his 123's for the first time, seeing as he had never gone to school so he was a little stupid.
"Luigi, where's the pasta?" Mario called through his and Luigi's house.
"It's in the cabinet, why?" Luigi answered back from the bathroom.
"I'm making cereal." Mario answered, messing around in the kitchen.
"You don't need…" Luigi began to say before he heard the sound of the blender coming from the kitchen.
"Making cereal, making cereal." Mario began to sing.
"Mario! You don't need a blender to make cereal!" Luigi yelled over the sound of the blender as he walked down the steps and into the kitchen.
"I don't?" Mario asked, stopping the blender. Luigi walked into the room only to find a mess of shredded pasta and milk all over the room.
"Mario, what happened?" Luigi said in shock.
"I tried to make cereal, but I couldn't find a bowl so I used the blender. When I started eating a saw a pretty red button and couldn't resist pressing it…so I did. Then a little thing in the bottom of the blender started spinning and the food went everywhere and just watched the spiny thing and before I knew it I got bored and turned it off. Now you're here and you asked…" Mario began to say before Luigi stopped him so he wouldn't repeat the story over and over.
"You could have asked me where the bowls were when you asked where the pasta was." Luigi said, grabbing a mop from the closet in the hall.
"No I couldn't have." Mario said like a little five year old.
"Why not?" Luigi asked, filling a bucket with water from the sink.
"Ummm… because!" Mario snapped back.
"That's not a reason." Luigi replied. Just then Mario heard a knock on the door.
"Guests!!!" Mario yelled and ran to the door. He opened the door to see a man in a blue suit with a briefcase and a piece of paper.
"Hello, my name is Johnny Cochran and my client, Bowser, is suing you." Johnny said, handing the piece of paper to Mario and made his way back down the walk.
"BREAKFAST!" Mario yelled, putting the piece of paper in his mouth. Luigi then walked into the room and pulled it out of his brother's mouth.
"Mario, it's three o'clock and this is a court summons." Luigi said, looking the paper over.
"Wuz that mean?" Mario asked.
"It means someone's suing you and you have to go to court." Luigi said, folding the paper up and sticking it in his pocket.
"Yay!" Mario yelled in excitement.
"Why are you so happy?" Luigi asked.
"If I go to court that means I get to play basketball!" Mario yelled and began running around the room, pretending to dribble a ball around.
"Mario, it's not that kind of court." Luigi said.
"Then what kind of court is it?" Mario asked, still running around the room.
"It means you have to win a case or you go to jail." Luigi answered.
"Like Monopoly?" Mario asked innocently.
"No, the living in a small room and having to watch your bum kind." Luigi said. Mario stopped running around and looked at Luigi wide eyed.
"That means I won't live here anymore." Mario said, his eye's tearing up.
"Yup, but all you have to do is win the case." Luigi said, reassuringly.
"What kind of case?" Mario asked, felling a little better.
"A court case." Luigi answered.
"How do I win a case big enough to fit a court into?" Mario asked.
"No, not that kind of case." Luigi said, smacking himself on the forehead.
"Now I'm really confused." Mario said.
"It means that you tell your side of the story, whatever that may be, and your opponent tells theirs and the jury tells who wins." Luigi explained.
"Oh…who am I playing against?" Mario asked.
"Mario it's not a game." Luigi replied.
"Still, who is my opponent?" Mario asked again.
"Well lets see it's…BOWSER?!" Luigi yelled.
"Yay, I haven't seen him in awhile." Mario said, clapping his hands.
"He's suing you for 'pain and suffering' and 'emotional distress.'" Luigi said. He then smacked Mario, who was still clapping, to shut him up.
"When do we see Bowser?" Mario asked.
"Tomorrow." Luigi answered.
WELL THAT ENDS CHAPTER ONE. I WILL WRITE CHAPTER TWO LATER, OR TOMMOROW. EITHER WAY NEXT CHAPTER WILL BE THE BEGINNING OF THE TRIAL! PLEASE R&R.
