Mario Kart: Crisis
Disclaimer: Mario Kart? Me owning? Are you freaking kidding me?
A/N: onto Chapter 5! Yay! …Hmmm. This may be going on hiatus for a while. But I don't think so, it brings back the element I haven't written in any other story. But then, each one brings something to the table.
Chapter 5: Private Party, Daring Daisy
"…so let's go over this one more time." Miss Golds said, "Miss Princess Daisy--"
"Just Daisy is fine." the princess cut in, "I'm sorry, but you don't need to--"
"Of course not." Miss Golds shook her head, "My son is a hassle. I have to apologize for that. But I won't let rudeness be spread on him from me! So, anyways…"
The princess was a bit surprised, "Um…okay."
"Good answer!" Miss Golds said in a sing-song voice. She turned the tone back to normal and said, "So, you Miss Princess Daisy, will appear near where this party is being held, some castle far away from here?"
"Yes. Frappe Castle. It was built about when the races started. We have parties there all the time there. I used to enjoy them, until I began to see the facts. They've become a bit morbid since then…"
"I see." Miss Tahjra replied, "Now, you will appear out there, struggling back, two hours before the party starts. You will say it was the closest place you knew, and that…" Miss Golds was silent for a moment, "…that those bastards from the village should've helped."
"I'm sorry. I don't want to say it."
"Lying about something is never good. But you need to. For us. I know you won't mean it…" Miss Golds smiled, "If you're really going to do this, we'll find where they strike next. And we'll be there. BUT! You must say that you never saw our village, or else they will…do horrid things to us. We are obligated to help any person from the Organization, mainly the racers. We'll pat this 'blood' on you…" Miss Golds took some dye she had collected from local berries and patted it on Daisy. She continued, "I understand those Karts are equipped with bandages to get out of the glove compartment. You'll say you used those. The real ones were all burned out in the fire anyways, so they won't have any evidence of you lying. Two hours later, when they 'heal' you, you'll sneak in and get information, and report back here. Now, you'll have to sneak back. Lock the door in the bathroom or something, then sneak out."
"Okay."
"You're marvelous for getting us food and such." Miss Golds praised, "Thank you. But, when the doctors don't find unhealed wounds, say you did it yourself, and used snow. We did the same, with some medical things, but it looks as if you used the white stuff and bandages. This will work. Trust me."
Miss Tahjra gave Daisy a kind smile. The princess blushed for a bit and returned with, "Okay, I'm going now."
She left. She ran through the snow, shivering a bit. After a while she finally made it to her kart. How was she going to make this look real? She sorted some ash and other debris on herself, then ran off the castle where the party was being held. Daisy sprinted off, holding the ash on. She eventually made it to the area, and began to crawl, with a fake weary face on.
She crawled slower. Yoshi was busying himself with some fruit, and noticed the collapsed Daisy. About to get help, Daisy stopped him, showing him the healed wound and motioning towards the village, mouthing that they helped her and she wanted to return the favor. She knew that at least, he would help her, so she winked at him and tried to explain what was happening. Yoshi had a pretty good idea of this already, and showed her some food he was storing. He pretended to eat some more but put it secretly away. The animal then faked surprise when he saw Daisy and told everyone what he saw.
Lakitus rushed in on the scene, picking up Daisy. They began to pat some of the blood off of her wounds, and used some restoring techniques.
"Oh, you don't know what you're doing!" Peach yelled, smashing a Lakitu out of the way. She looked at Daisy wounds for a moment (Super Mario RPG Fans will realize this), and then focused for a second, "Group Hug!" Peach said, throwing her hands up. Blue mist-like energy surrounded them all, restoring Daisy's wounds and healing everyone else.
Daisy got up and patted herself off, "Thank you, Peach."
"It's no worry." Peach said, "But it looks like most of those wounds were healed already, just they would take a bit longer to recover. What'd you do? Actually use this stuff?" The blonder ripped off some of the emergency tape, "The Organization teaches us how to use this, but I can't believe you actually did. Way to show some power, Daisy!"
Daisy tore the rest of it off, "And my healing spells helped me, too. I think I'll be okay. Now, let's resume the party!"
People agreed, but many stayed near Daisy. She told them she was fine, but Yoshi lingered. Daisy was a great translator of the language of Yoshi, and so it was miraculously easy to understand to her. Yoshi began,
"What happened exactly? We heard about the crash, but…"
"I wasn't in a crash. I had to save these two villagers from some wolves, and so I fought. The car got out of my control when I tried helping them again, and it crashed. The two kids I saved showed some maturity, though. They were both young, but they helped me get to their village. It's disgusting, Yoshi. Not the village, but this system of wrecking people's homes--people's lives!--has gone on too long!"
"I know. You saw the food I was saving?"
"Yeah?"
"I was planning on bringing it to them, but I don't know a good distraction."
"Oh, Mrs. Golds and I discussed that."
"Miss Golds?"
"The mother of one of the kids. We discussed how I'd get back here. They have bathroom here, and I'll just pretend I need to use that and run off with the food."
"Have you thought of how you'd get there?"
"I was going to steal one of the karts. I know that their engines are loud, so I'll go slow then gun it when I get out far enough. Can you go in there and cover for me after I get enough food?"
"Of course. These people deserve help, after what the Organization did."
"Yeah…I'm going to steal some food now. Luigi seems to be pigging out on the shrimp. I'll get some of that first. But…"
"What?"
"I can't get that all without getting my dress all wet or ruined. People would wonder why it was, and lies wouldn't help very much."
"Take this." Yoshi said pointing a cooler out from under a table, "I hid it to deliver food to the villagers. There's another shelf in it for things that don't need to be frozen. Take all that you can Daisy." He pretended to drop something and knelt down to the cooler. In a very fake tone, he said, "I seem to keep dropping things today, ugh."
Daisy nodded and said, "Oh, I'll help you." She helped Yoshi pile in the food in the refrigerated section. Mushroom Kingdom was sure getting advanced. It didn't even need ice. Daisy noticed how large it was, though. This would be a problem. She whispered to Yoshi, pretending to look for something, "How will I get this into the bathroom? Or out back? There's a window, but this looks heavy!"
"It's quite near the door." Yoshi calmly replied, "I'll lug it out while you get out from the bathroom window. I'll say I forgot something in my cart, and I'll load it on there."
Daisy was a bit stunned. He sure had planned this out.
"Okay." She replied. It was like he planned for her to come. She decided to stand up, after the food as securely loaded in. Yoshi gave her a look.
"Let's hurry and move. I won't let them die!"
A/N: I would love to have that freezer. But what happens next! Find out later!
