Chapter 7
The Inter-Planetary meeting
I don't own the Mario franchise, Nintendo does
Toad town was getting ready to rest, toads were going home after work, until thier peaceful night was interrupted. "AHHHH!", you could here down the streets, "Invaders! Invaders!", a purple toad screamed. They panicked as they saw the American men come down the hill. "Princess help!", a toad citizen came in the castle, "Invaders!". "What is going on?", the Princess and the plumbers asked confused, "Monsters riding monsters are coming!", a blue toadette yelled. "Well call the guards Toadsworth!" Peach said, "Guards are on their way, Princess!" Toadsworth announced.

"What in tarnation is going on!", Lt. Clark said, "Looks like the hostile pygmies are afraid of us, Lieutenant.", Carter said with a chuckle. "We need to talk to one of them," Corporal Thomas said, "That one." Lt. Kingston ended while pointing his saber at a yellow toad. "You there!", Capt. Carter told the toad, which stood in fear, "Ye.. .ss," the toad replied. "Where is your leader?" Lt. Clark told him, "In..nn.n th.. .. . .eee.", the toad replied, "That one?" Beaumont said pointing to Peach's castle, in which the toad nodded and ran. "Hmm.. how strange, he looked like a mushroom", Capt. Carter said, "Yes, and they speak English?", Corporal Thomas finished. They soon headed towards the castle.

Warning: Toads were harmed in the making of this chapter
"Princess! Princess! They're headed this way!", a green guard toad yelled, "Surround the Princess! Surround the Princess!", the chief guard ordered, and so they did, along with Mario and Luigi. "There she is Lt. Clark," a calvary man said, "the leader.". "What is you business here?!", the chief guard asked, "We're lost, and need a place to stay, do you know where we are?". "Why do you want to know that for?", another guard asked, "do you work for Bowser?!". "Bowser?", Capt. Carter said, "who in the world is that?" he asked while chuckling at the weird name. "You do work for him, liars! Guards! CHARGE!" the chief guard said. "Damn, I knew they were hostile, attack!" Lt. Clark yelled.
What Peach, Mario and Luigi saw before them was horrifying, toads seemed like dominoes, just falling before the so called invaders. "Now can we talk?", Capt. Carter asked, "You barbarians, you monsters!", Peach said with welled up eyes, "What do you want?!". "We just wanted peace, and then they attacked and we had to defend ourselves, I'm sorry.", Capt. Carter replied, "But... OK... it wasn't you're fault, you were doing what was natural, protecting yourselves, I understand." Peach again said, mournfully. Mario and Luigi comforted Peach, and while they were comforting her, a messenger arrived.
"Princess Peach of the Mushroom Kingdom, a message from King Thorne of Sarasaland, it reads:
Dear Princess Toadstool, I have sent this letter to tell you about a recent decision the council and I made, we will send half of our armies to be stationed in Toad Town, if you disagree please send this messenger back with the disagreement statement, Thank You, my our Kingdoms prosper in peace."
"Well we need all the help we can get so OK, you are dismissed messenger.", Peach answered , "Thank you, your Highness. I'll inform the King. Farewell.", and with that he departed. "Sarasaland? Mushroom Kingdom? Where in blazes are we?", Beaumont asked, "Why your in the Mushroom Kingdom, and where are you from?" Peach answered and asked, "Were from the United.." "Confederates States of America!", Capt. Carter said before being interrupted by Lt. Clark. "Just America, ma'am.", Lt. Kingston finished, "And is your name Princess Peach or Toadstool?". "You can call me both, I really don't mind, Oh! And this is Mario and Luigi, our heroes." The plumbers waved at the Americans, in which they waved back, "And your names?" Peach finished. "Well my name is Captain Wilson Carter, this my Lieutenant, James Kingston, my Corporal, David Thomas, my Tracker, Travis Beaumont, and my soldiers.", Capt. Carter replied, "And I'm Lieutenant Benjamin Clark, and these are my cavalrymen.", Lt. Clark answered. "Come in, let's go to my meeting room.", Peach said, "Are you sure this is a good idea? We don't know them.", Toadsworth whispered worriedly, "Of course".
"My this a nice castle you got here Princess.", Corporal Thomas said, "Yes, its splendid, its a monument to our Kingdom." Peach told him. "Say Princess, who's this Bowser person the little mushrooms kept talkin about?", Lt. Kingston asked, "Well he's the enemy of our people, he kidnaps me everynow and then and Mario here has to save me," Peach said before being interrupted by Beaumont, "Well Princess, looks like you and the red-man there would make a nice couple." he said chuckling while eating a mushroom burger. She turned red as Mario's hat after that comment, "Oh... well, he's trying to conquer the world, and we made alliances to stop him." Lt. Kingston spoke, "Conquer the world, he'll never get past America!", Peach then said, "America, where is that?". The soldiers looked at each other in confusion, "Well where is it? I've never seen it on the Mushroom World globe.", Peach asked seemingly desperate for an answer. "Mushroom World?", Capt. Carter asked confused, "Why yes, that's the name of the planet!", Peach answered. "Lt. Clark", Capt. Carter turned to the confused Lieutenant, "I don't think we're on Earth anymore.". They immediately stood up, Colts drawn, "Captain, we're talking to aliens!", Kingston shouted, pointing his Colt to a toad guard, "But they're friendly, withdraw your weapons.", Capt. Carter said, "But Cap.." "Now!", the Captain said with such authority Toadsmorth flinched. Kingston sat down and withdrew, along with every one else, "My apologies, Princess, there just scared being on another planet.", Carter said , "I accept, I would feel afraid too.", Peach said reassuringly. "Now Let's Talk. NO INTERRUPTIONS!" Capt. Carter said facing his comrades, who all flinched.
