Chapter 3: Toadette's Return

Time for the 3rd chapter of Super Toad 64. Last time Green Toad was forced to clean Blue Toad's house, and Blue Toad joined Toad and Yellow Toad's group, whether they would like it or not. They're excited as first, but the excitement will soon die out.

A Lakitu appeared on a cloud, with a camera, and floated around the castle, then going under two bridges which then zoomed out and zoomed into the area in front of the castle where the green pipe was sure to appear. Out of the pipe jumps the main royal Toad of them all.

"Yay!" Toad said, while jumping out of a pipe.

Suddenly, two more pipes have appeared and jumped out Yellow Toad and Blue Toad.

"Yeah!" Yellow Toad said, also jumping out of a pipe.

"I'm the best!" Blue Toad said. He was the last to jump out of a pipe.

"Wow! Peach's Castle in all of its glory!" Toad said, finding Peach's Castle.

"I just can't wait!" Yellow Toad said.

"Let's go!" Toad told them.

"Yeah!" Yellow Toad said.

But Yellow Toad accidentally jumped on Blue Toad's head.

"Hey!" Blue Toad said.

Blue Toad tried to chase the two Toads but they bumped into each other.

"Can we just go in already? Geez." Blue Toad was waiting.

"Alright! Sheesh." Toad said.

"Shush the sheesh." Blue Toad told Toad.

The three Toads run toward the castle, but suddenly the same Lakitu who floated around the castle goes in front of them.

"Good afternoon, The Lakitu Brothers reporting live from outside Princess Peach's Castle. Toad, Yellow Toad and Blue Toad have just arrived at the scene, and we'll be filming the action live as they enter the castle and pursue the missing Power Stars." Lakitu said.

"Those missing power stars?" Toad said, confused.

"What's this all about?" Blue Toad asked.

"Oh, we're just gonna be filming you three Toads as a television show the entire time you're here." Lakitu said.

"Why?" Toad asked.

"Because the fans will love action." Lakitu replied.

"Tell me, why would our fans be interested in this?" Yellow Toad asked Lakitu.

"You'll see." Lakitu said.

"Just don't get in our way and interrupt us." Blue Toad told Lakitu.

"Now, as the seasoned cameraman, we'll film the recommended angle, but if you want us to change the angle, then just touch the arrows on the touch screen. If we can't change the angle, then we will buzz, so please take a look at your surroundings." Lakitu told the three Toads.

"Um, I don't see any arrows or a touch screen in front of us." Toad said.

"Neither do I." Yellow Toad said, not seeing arrows or any touch screens.

"Uh, what were they?" Blue Toad was confused about what the arrows and touch screens were.

"Don't worry about it. The one who watches you will understand all that. For now, recording live, this has been the Lakitu Brothers." Lakitu said, while flying off-screen."

"See you, Lakitu." Yellow Toad said to Lakitu, who was off-screen.

"Let's just go inside Peach's Castle." Toad said to the two Toads.

"Right." Blue Toad said.

So the three walk inside, not knowing what would be lurking around inside there. They didn't notice that mushroom girl sleeping on the castle's roof though.

2 hours later...

The same Lakitu was next to the sleeping mushroom girl who was oddly on top of the castle's roof earlier. Lakitu had to carry her down from there.

"Toadette, Toadette..." Lakitu popped the bubble that she was snoozing, waking her up. The mushroom girl in question was none other than Toad's friend and Yellow Toad's girlfriend, Toadette. She had a pink mushroom hat with white spots and braids already. She even had a pink dress and a red vest with gold trim as well as white pants and brown-padded shoes.

"Huh, where am I?" Toadette asked.

"Listen, we need your help." Lakitu told her.

"Why do you need help from me? I was sleeping here." Toadette said to Lakitu, while trying to sleep.

"Wake up, Toadette!" Lakitu yelled.

"Eeeek! Alright, I'm awake now! This better be good!" Toadette said.

"Well, Toad and his friends went inside the castle for some cake, but they've never returned...it's been like, two hours! Do you mind investigating the place to see what is going on in there? I fear your friend, Toad, might be in trouble." Lakitu told her.

"Toad's in trouble? Hmm...since we were partners in Mario Kart: Double Dash, I do owe him for saving my life some time ago...I'll do it! Don't worry, Toads! Toadette's on the case!" Toadette said as she decided to do her best.

And with that, Toadette stood up as Lakitu floated off-screen and ran towards Peach's Castle. But when she tried to open the doors, it was locked.

"What? Locked?! Ergh, there has to be a key around here somewhere that Peach had..." Toadette said while looking for the key. "Lakitu, got a spare key?" Toadette called out for Lakitu.

"Hey, I think I saw a rabbit taking off with a key in his mouth. If you're looking for the rabbit, he's over the hedges near where you started." Lakitu said.

"Thank you!" Toadette then had to run over to the hedges where she saw the rabbit Lakitu was talking about with the key.

"Excuse me, sir, could you please hand me that key? I need it to get inside Peach's castle." Toadette said to the rabbit.

But the rabbit said, "Sorry, ma'am, but this is my key. Get your own!" The rabbit then hopped away.

Toadette got a little irritated and catched up to him.

"Mr. Rabbit, I really need that key. Would you please give it to me and find something else to chew on your size?" Toadette asked the rabbit again.

"No!" The rabbit then hopped away.

Toadette started to get mad and catched up to the rabbit again.

"Listen, my three friends are in serious trouble and I need that key to get in! So this is your last warning, give me that key this instant!" Toadette demanded the rabbit the key.

Toadette then had enough. "I'll just have to grab you by the hands then!" So Toadette grabbed the rabbit with her hands.

"Ouch! Put me down, you rabbit grabber! All I did was tease you a little. C'mon, let me go!" The rabbit wanted to let go, so Toadette put it down on the ground.

"Gee, if you didn't run so fast, I wouldn't have grabbed you. Just give me the key anyway!" Toadette said to the rabbit.

"Okay, fine, just take it, it's slowing me down." The rabbit said as he gave the key to Toadette.

"Thank you!" Toadette then walked back to the castle, unlocked the entrance, and walked in.
