DanceDream: Review please?
Faraday Fan: Mushroom World has six large moons, and a hundred or so too small for the naked eye. Sonic's world has two, as seen in Sonic Riders. That does kind of explain the whole Eggman-blew-up-the-moon thing.
TatlTails: Yup. And I also played a bit of the Wind Waker. Apparently, cake is a lie... And so are waffles! There is no way that waffles contain waffle!
Matthew: She's not quite known for good ideas.
Adventures of Mario & Sonic: Peach's Adventure
Bad Future
When Peach and her friends fell asleep that night, they had no idea what the future had in store. They would work through their adventure, overcoming many obstacles, discovering new powers, and beating foes old and new.
At a critical moment in their quest when things were at their bleakest, the four heroes who had been sent to the future returned. However, there was a problem: Mario had become weakened. He eventually regained his strength, but it was too late. The balance of good and evil had collapsed, and monsters ravaged the world. The plumber split apart from the other three heroes, managing to evacuate many of the citizens into space, and was forced to watch as the planet he had always protected was ravaged.
As this happened, Tails discovered that he had powers he hadn't imagined before. He learned to use them, and remained hidden from the world (except for Sonic) thereafter, helping from the sidelines.
Luigi disappeared; where, when, and how, nobody knows.
Sonic stayed on the planet and fought as much as he could, but he eventually succumbed to the enemy at the ripe age of 168. Sonic remained on the planet as a spirit, helping those in need.
236 years after the return of the heroes, Shadow became the father of twins: A silver male hedgehog, and a purple female cat. The identity of the mother is not going to be revealed, so don't bother asking.
Fourteen years later, a total of 250 years after the heroes returned; the heroes from the past arrived.
Tails watched from the sidelines as Mario's younger self arrived, and knew the time had come. He just hoped he could change what had happened the first time around.
Images flashed across Mario's mind as he fell… Turtles eating pizza; Princess Peach slicing through trees with a pink sword; children in black dresses waving sticks that shot jets of light; Wario and Waluigi acting incredibly stupid and gross; a goomba in a space suit jumping around on the moon; four koopas with ninja masks angrily asserting that they weren't parodies of something; a road winding through a lava-covered city and rapidly approaching.
He realized that the last one was real just as he smashed into the ground face first at a hundred miles per hour. Suffice to say, it hurt.
"Oh… Mama mia…" Mario sat up to a description of action that would probably have been uninteresting if it wasn't pointed out that it was uninteresting, "Where am I? Where's the pasta and adoring crowds?"
He got up, dusted himself off, and beat feet. After destroying the random monster feet, he ran down the road at top speed. That landed him in lava, so he decided to run up the road instead.
The scenery seemed bleak... The city was torn apart, covered in fire, and weathered, as if some tragedy had happened many years before. There was nothing alive to be -
In the corner of Mario's eye, he caught a flash of purple, but it was gone when he stopped to look. Something about that purple seemed familiar... Familiar and not something he wanted to see again. He shuddered... There was just something about that shade that rubbed him the wrong way. Deciding to deal with this problem later, Mario ran off once more.
The purple being lurked in the shadows, before notifying its superiors about the red-capped plumber via telephone.
"Zstop jsd sttobrf. Sadp, epiaf uip smf yjr hiud aolr yp hry s qoxxs asyrt?"

"Usu! Yjsml upi! Pbrt smf piu."
"Nur," the purple being bid his accomplice farewell, before walking off to... 'vpmyomir jod djogy, smf mpy dasvl pgg'. Suffice to say, it wasn't very convincing.
"Zstop od jrtr!"
"Ah ha ha... Good. Let's... Throw him a little welcoming party, shall we?" A high-pitched and jovial, but strangely cold and malicious voice came from the shadows of the base's conference room.
"Dpttu, O'br satrsfu hpy qasmd eoyj yjr hiud yp jsbe qoxxs."
"Not that kind of party!" Another dark figure in the room said, "The kind where we try to kill him!"
"Ahahawg! And then he may join our cause under my command!" This voice was ghostly, and seemed to come from an empty space.
"Pj. O trsaau djpiaf jsbr hpyyrm yjsy..."
"Yes, you should have, you inferior-to-Waluigi-idiot," the voice who had corrected him on the meaning of the party spoke up, "Now, leave Waluigi's glorious presence! Or else you mus... Wah hah hah... Aovl zu grry!"
"Mp!" the purple soldier screamed, running out of the room, "Smuyjomh niy yjsy!"
"Waluigi is somewhat offended, and somewhat glad that idiot is gone. Let's go get some pizza, guys."
