Once again, I do not own anything in any of the character's worlds. Enjoy.
Chapter 2 – Washed Up
Double D slowly opened his eyes, realizing that he was underwater. 'Odd' he thought. 'I don't remember ever feeling the impact! I must have lost consciousness. Oh no! Eddy!'
Double D saw his best friend, lying on the floor of the swimming hole. He wasn't moving. Double D swam as fast as he could, scooping up his friend and heading for the surface. He gasped for air as he broke the surface of the water, pulling Eddy to a small, green yard.
"Yard? Where is the beach…?" Double D trailed off, stunned by his new surroundings. Where there should have been a sandy beach sat a small house with its yard. A gate sat far off, adorning a sign that read Toad Town. There was a small house a bit farther, and another building with a blue one built behind it a well.
"Toad Town? What in the name of…" Double D began, but suddenly a very peculiar creature approached him.
"Oh my goodness, are you all right?" the small creature said. It had a small head, with what looked like large mushroom on top of it. It had red spots on it. The creature was small, but wore a blue, vest like article of clothing. Double D's mouth hung wide open, speechless.
"What…what are you?" He asked, his mind whirring.
"Excuse me?" it asked. Double D took a large breath, trying to calm his nerves.
"I've never seen a specimen like you before in my life! I've never even read of a species like you existing!" he blurted, his mind racing faster and faster as it was filled with the thoughts of awards and discoveries.
"Specimen? Um, do you want my help or not?" the creature said, taking a small, cautious step away from the rambling human.
"Yes I would love your help! Please answer all of my questions! I have so many!" Double D said at an increasingly fast pace. The small creature now looked frightened.
"Um…I think I better go," with that, he turned and ran.
"No! Wait! I still have-"he was stopped though, by the sounds of coughing. He snapped back to his regular self, and noticed that Eddy was finally awakening. Double D also noticed the whereabouts of his other friends.
The large rocket was floating, half submerged, in the large pond that Double D had found himself in. He could see Johnny and Plank, as well as Sarah and Jimmy, all lying in the rocket. Kevin was lying on a small island type thing in the middle of the pond with Nazz nearby. However, Rolf and Ed where nowhere in sight.
"Double D, what the heck just happen…what? Whoa! Where are we?" he asked, looking around at his new and unfamiliar surroundings.
"I don't know Eddy. It seems that Ed and Rolf missing after our crash as well!" Double D said, worried.
"Great. Why couldn't have it been Kevin and Sarah?" Eddy grumbled. Suddenly, soft groans filled the air. The other kids were coming to. Suddenly, bubbles disturbed the top of the water. Double D gasped.
"You don't think?" he asked. Eddy shrugged. Double D was overcome with worry. Suddenly, whoever, Rolf broke the surface, dissipating some of Double D's anxiety.
But Rolf wore a look of panic.
"Stick-in-the-mud Ed boy! He is trapped under the water!" he yelled. Double D gasped and jumped into the water, diving under the chilly depths. He quickly reached the bottom, where he saw Ed struggling to free himself from a large sheet of metal. With the combined efforts of the two Eds, they were able to get it off, and the two swam back to the top.
"Ed are you alright?" Double D asked as he swam to the edge of the water.
"Never better, Double D!" he said, his eyes not totally focused on him. Double D frowned, but quickly turned his attention to the yelling on the side of the pond.
"You're accursed scam has launched Rolf into a land unknown! How do you propose we get back before Rolf must remove the back hairs of Nana!" Rolf screamed loudly.
"Dude, that is gross," Eddy said, taking a step back.
"We've had it with your lame excuses, dork! Get us home or face the consequences!" Kevin said, cracking is knuckles. The rest of the kids shouted in agreement, but before they could harm Eddy, Double D stepped in the way.
"People, people, do you really think that violence will solve any of our problems?" he shouted. The others stopped.
"Well if you're so smart, why don't you tell us where we are?" Sarah yelled as the others nodded angrily. Double D furrowed his brow, glancing over to the rocket in the pond.
"This is a very strange situation. It appears that the force in which our rocket collided with the water of the swimming hole opened up a possibly unstable time warp hole, transporting us to another reality or possibly another dimension." He stated. The others all looked dumbfounded. "Well, it's just a guess!" he said, shrugging his shoulders. "For all we know we could all be sharing a sub-conscious dream induced by the force in which we collided with the water."
"Dude, just stop," Kevin said, shaking his head.
"So, like, how do we get home?" Nazz said. The whole group sat quietly, looking at one another. Just as the whole group was about to start fighting again, another human walked into their presence.
He was a short man with dark brown hair and a mustache. He had a large, red hat on with an M on the front. He wore blue overalls, and was accompanied by something that resembled a mushroom with feet and a face.
He walked through the large gate building at the far end of the town with his mushroom friend. Ed immediately spotted him.
"Aha! A human I spy with my little eye!" he said loudly.
"Who the heck is that guy?" Eddy said, scowling at the slightly plump human.
"Who cares, at least he's human!" Nazz said.
"But look at his friend, he's not!" Jimmy said cautiously.
The whole gang started arguing while the strange human began to converse with the spotted mushroom-on-head creature.
"Mario! I'm so glad you're OK!" the creature said. The man named Mario nodded.
"I'ma glad that the town survived the disaster."
"Quiet, everyone! If we listen closely we can found out more about our situation!" Double D hissed, calming the crowd as everyone eavesdropped on the conversation.
"We may have survived, but now the town is an uproar! The princess kidnapped! The very castle uprooted! It's bedlam! And on top of all that, these," he leaned in close to whisper "very strange kids have suddenly appeared in the pond! Out of nowhere!"
"Well, that is quite strange. I'lla see what I can do."
"I really don't know what can do about all this…"
"Don'ta worry! Soon, Bowser will be defeated, and everything will be back to normal!"
"Oh, thank you! Please Mario, save her highness!"
The creature then turned and walked away from the mysterious man.
"Oh my gosh, he's coming this way!" Jimmy squealed, cowering slightly in fear. The other kids all stared with wide eyes as the man walked straight up to them.
"Hello. I'ma Mario," he said to the Peach Creek kids.
