"I'm so glad you were here Luigi!" Mallow explained. Mallow was actually a prince. We learned his true family were in the clouds in the kingdom of Nimbus. Mallow hasn't changed much. Same puffy smile and cheeks. He did sport a crown though. "And Toad, thank you very much for coming to my Fathers funeral. The flowers were beautiful"
Toad smiled "yes, your welcome". Frogfucius was Mallow's adopted father. He was an old frog leader of Tadpool Pond. He is missed dearly. "Mallow, may I ask why is it you have come to Mushroom Kingdom? Your always welcomed, but."
Mallow frowned then gave serious look "Luigi, Toad, this will not leave the castle understand?" Luigi and Toad traded confused looks then nodded to Mallow. "Urgent matters have convinced me that Nimbus alone cannot stop what is soon to happen. An event that Nimbus legend has forseen a great time of Darkness. Bowser, Smithy, nothing has scared me as much as this time time of darkness. Where Dinosaur Land will be a very dangerous place"
Luigi and Toads mouths dropped in terror. "Ma..ma..mallow? What can w-w-we do? I can't possibly imagine what will happen, let alone how to stop it!" Toad said, sitting there with a pale face.
"That is why I need your help! Not just you, every friend you have needs to be here. We can use friendship to show The Darkness that even in the shadowy of times, light can be created!" Mallow frowned "But friendship won't be enough. We will have to fight the Darkness, To the point where we need light to conquer it.." Mallow stopped to see King Toadstool to greet the carriage " Nevermind now, lets not worry the King. He isn't apart of this just y-y-yet." Toad had realised Mallow's personality has changed since the time of Smithy's rein.
Luigi and Toad, Still shocked on the twist of fate, step out of the carriage with Mallow to greet King Toadstool "Toadzard!" yelled Mallow
"Marshagon!" replied King Toadstool. They embraced then were forwarded into the castle. Yoshi, Luigi and Toad walk to the castle gates. Toad gets in but the doors slam on Luigi and Yoshi.
"hey now! I am a friend of the Toadstools MISTER!" Then a woman in a yellow dress pops behind the gates to reveal Princess Daisy Sandstool of Sarasaland. She was a browned haired princess with blue eyes. She looked a bit like Princess Peach Toadstool, King Toadstool's daughter, but had different shaped hair and a less desprete "Mario help me" type of glance.
"Haha Luigi! You can't come in! You don't know the password!" Yelled Daisy. She laughed as Luigi hopped on Yoshi to run after her. She disappeared behind the stone wall she hid behind before, and when Yoshi turned the corner she was nowhere to be seen. In flash the earth rumbled and luigi fell off of Yoshi and onto the ground. In a fright Yoshi fled behind the stone wall. Luigi turned around.
"Darkness?" he pondered.
"HA!" Daisy giggled to reveal a Yellow Yoshi with a turtle in its mouth. Her Yoshi spit it out and she tramped over to Luigi" Heehee your so gullible! Darkness. Thats just a Silly nimbus legend, right?" Daisy looked fearful. Luigi nodded. "What do you know? I heard things" she demanded.
"Lets go in Daisy, Lets leave Yoshi Mine and Yoshi yours out here. We have things to talk about INSIDE" Luigi grabbed Daisy from the back and pushed her into the castle. Daisy lifted the gate and they walked on in. Luigi was glad he found a friend for this, for he will need daisy in fullfilling the mysterious request he accepted from Mallow.
