Toad awoke on the morning of June 1st. The Mario Kart season started today. The first race of the year was in Luigi Circuit. Toad with his new partner, Toadette, and was ready to do a lot better this year than the past 3 years of his Mario Kart career. This was his 4th year, and he was ready to be a major-leaguer at the end of this year. He then heard a sound that made him snap out of his thoughts.
"Come on Toad, get ready!" Toadette shouted, more encouragingly than Bowser would've done. Here it was again. Red, Yellow...GREEN!
The fans cheered like never before, because of the new kart on the road. Toad's shiny, golden mushroom kart made a blinding flash in the sunlight. His new kart was also of excellent quality, made from the finest mechanics in the Mushroom Kingdom for 250,000 coins.
"This definitely beats my old kart," Toad smiled to himself, as he and Toadette sped into first place. None of the other karts were in sight, and even Toad wondered how he wasn't in the major-leagues with this kind of racing. They entered Lap 2 (the sign still getting in Toad's way), then suddenly, Toad heard a giant spiked shell come up behind him. He swerved out of the way and looked back.
"Why didn't you do that before, Toad?" Bowser shouted, with his son at the driver's seat. "Jr. and I are gonna beat you good!" Bowser's kart picked up speed, and almost hit the back bumper of Toad's kart. Suddenly, something amazing happened. Toad's kart did a back flip and landed on Bowser's old kart. Bowser and Bowser Jr. were helplessly crushed. Then, Toad drove away.
"See you later!" Toad shouted over his head.
Toad and Toadette skillfully avoided traps, and got even farther away from the other karts. They sped through Lap 3 at top speed, and took first place in the end.
"That was easy for a first race," Toad thought, as he and Toadette earned 10 points to their season record. "Toadette's a natural at throwing items, and with her and this kart, we're unstoppable."
