Toadstool89's Truth or Dare Show!
by Toadstool89
Chapter 4: Conversations Part 2
Okay, so yeah, let's do a little recapping. Guess I'll start by saying this. Last time on Toadstool89's Truth or Dare Show...
Outside of Toad Town Studios, Toad Town, 7:37 AM
Sonic was running from Shadow at top speed. He was smiling. He'd wanted an excuse to run ever since Toadstool89's Truth or Dare Show started. Picking a fight with Shadow gave him that excuse.
Shadow caught up to Sonic and ran beside him. "You're gonna get it," he warned him.
"You wanna race?" Sonic asked. This took Shadow by surprise.
"You mean you don't wanna fight?" asked Shadow incredulously.
"No," Sonic confirmed. "So, you wanna race or not?"
Shadow ran past Sonic in reply.
Toad Town Studios, Main Stage, 7: 45 AM
"What's that for?" asked Omochao.
"You'll see." Toadstool began to carefully open the box. "If what Toadsworth says is true..." she began.
Darrel and Purple leaned forward.
"...and Sonic and Shadow wanna outrun each other..."
Everyone else leaned forward.
"...then I'd like to see them..." Toadstool pulled out a rainbow colored box with a question mark on it. She threw it on the ground.
"...outrun this!" Toadstool held up a blue Spiny Shell.
Alright, enough recapping. If this recap didn't make any sense to you when you read it, read Chapter 3 again and come back. Anyway...Back to the present!
Toad Town Studios, Main Stage, 7:46 AM
Toadstool stared at the blue shell she now possessed. She'd wanted an excuse to use it ever since she learned how to store an item box. What better time than this?
"What're you doing with that?" asked Rosalina.
"Weren't you listening to me?" Toadstool sighed. "I'm gonna throw this at Sonic and Shadow. I'm actually curious to see if they could outrun it or not."
"Does that count as a dare?" asked Purple Yoshi.
"Uh, yeah," said Toadstool. "Allow me to explain. There are user submitted truths and dare, and there are my truths and dares. Both types count, you know."
"But what if we truth or dare each other?" asked Toad.
"Oh..." Toadstool clasped her hands together. "I haven't really decided on that yet. I mean, there are some strong rivalries among some of you here. I'm not really willing to take the risk of you guys daring each other on suicide missions..."
"Yes or no?" asked Toad, exasperated.
"Let me think about it, Toad," said Toadstool. "I'll have to get back to you on that one."
"So..." Darrel looked towards the window. "You gonna throw that thing or what?"
"Yeah." Toadstool went to the window, opened it, and threw the shell. Then she threw another one that came from out of nowhere into her other hand. She watched them both fly on their way to their targets. A tiny evil grin appeared on her face.
Somewhere in the Mushroom Kingdom, 7:49 AM
Sonic and Shadow sped through the hills, hiking up huge clouds of dust. Then, the next thing they knew, they were in some sort of grasslands. They sped past a funny looking red vehicle that housed four familiar faces. Sonic backtracked to take another look at the vehicle and its passengers.
"Hey," he said to them. "What're you doing in that vehicle?"
Shadow backed up to where Sonic was and smirked. "Seriously. Everyone's just gonna laugh at you four if you keep driving it." Shadow paused. "My advice? Get a new car." He smirked again.
"Hey!" exclaimed a male wearing a red cap. "This here's the Toad Mobile. It's not for show, it's for rescuing the Mini Stars that were stolen by Bowser," the Toad explained.
"Stolen by Bowser?" Sonic and Shadow repeated.
"Yeah, stolen by Bowser!" exclaimed the other three people.
"Although," the red cap began, "I haven't seen much of the Koopa king lately. Wonder where he could be...Oh, where are my manners?" he asked before either of the hedgehogs could tell him where Bowser was. "My name is Toad." he started introducing. "And this is Princess Peach, Luigi, and his brother Mario." He pointed to each passenger in turn.
"Wha...? I thought you guys were back in the studio!" exclaimed Sonic.
"What studio?" asked Peach.
"Y'know...Toad Town Studios?" Sonic asked hopefully.
Peach smiled. "Yeah, I know where that is," she said. "You go to Toad Town and once you're inside the gate, you take a right...Oh! I'm sorry. What are your names?"
"You mean you don't..." Sonic turned to Shadow. "Did we run so fast that we ended up in a different reality?" he asked.
Shadow shrugged "Beats me."
Sonic looked up at the sky "I wonder if..." his voice trailed off.
"What up?" Shadow asked.
"I wish I knew."
"What do you mean by that?"
Sonic pointed upward. Shadow looked to where Sonic was pointing. It looked to him like two random blue things. They started coming closer. The two things hovered above them. "What the heck is—"
BOOOOOOOOOOOOM!
Sonic and Shadow went flying into the air. They landed with a not-so-nice sounding thud. When the dust cleared, Sonic noticed a note that had appeared on the ground. He picked it up. Then, after helping Shadow to his feet, they read it together. The note said
"Hey, guys. I got tired of waiting for you. I thought of calling, but then I remembered you guys don't carry cell phones. Then I thought of sending someone to give you guys a message, but that would take way too long. The show would be over by the time the messenger got you guys. So I decided to send a message via shell gram. Hope it didn't hurt too badly *evil grin*. Anyways, come back to the studio. I have some important announcements to make, and I would like for everyone to be present when I make them. Thanks.
Yours truly,
Toadstool E. Nine"
"I hate shell grams," the hedgehogs grumbled at the same time. Then they dashed off, back towards Toad Town Studios, leaving some very confused party people behind.
Toad Town Studios, Main Stage, 7:52 AM
Toadstool checked the time on her smart phone. "The shells should've reached them by now."
"Shells?" Darrel echoed. "I thought you had only one shell."
"I did," Toadstool began. "But then this other Spiny Shell appeared out of, like, nowhere into my hands! I was all, like, 'What is this, a magic studio or something?' Anyway, they should be back by..."
"We're back!" Sonic and Shadow walked into the room. To everyone's surprise (except Toadstool, Toadsworth, and Espio's), neither of them looked hurt, or even bruised. Leafpool walked over to them.
"Uh, what are doing?" asked Sonic as Leafpool started sniffing him.
"My job," Leafpool replied. "Well...my old job, anyway." She started sniffing Shadow. A minute later, she poked her head up. "No bruises." She turned to the two. "You feeling okay?" she asked. "No sore spots or anything?"
"Nah, I'm good," said Sonic. He returned to his seat.
"I'm all right, too." Shadow followed suit. Satisfied, Leafpool returned to her moss chair.
Toadstool grinned. "Had a nice run?" she asked.
Shadow gave Toadstool the death glare. "It was decent," Shadow replied. "Well, up until we got hit with two spiky things."
"Those were Spiny Shells," said Luigi. "But I didn't throw them! Toadstool did." He sweat dropped.
Sonic thought about mentioning the other Luigi, Mario, Peach, and Toad to everybody. "...Nah," he mumbled.
"Okay! Now, Sonic and Shadow's note said that I had a few announcements to make. Well, here they are." She paused for a few seconds before continuing. "First thing I have to do is take the non-mainstream characters (my OCs) off Truth or Dare. So that means..." She checked the character roster. "Steve McToad, Mariana McToad, Mariana Jacquelyn, Annabella, and Samantha the Hedgehog...go home."
The five OCs walked out the door, mumbling stuff about not getting the chance to win a million dollars (or Coins, or Rings). Everyone else stared at them as they walked out. Once they walked out the door their chairs disappeared.
"Now we're short five," Toadstool sighed. "But I don't like being short of people. Luckily, though, I've already thought this far ahead and I've already found replacements." Toadstool took a deep breath to get her announcing voice ready. "We have two new contestants from the Magic Dimension!"
Bloom sat straight up.
"Everyone...meet Stella and Flora!"
Stella walked in the room like a princess ('cause she was one). She and Flora looked around the room at the many new faces. "Hello there! I am Stella, Fairy of the Shining Sun." Stella took her seat next to Bloom.
"And I am Flora, the—"
"The fairy of flowers?" Toadette guessed.
Flora smiled. "Sort of. I'm the Fairy of Nature." She took her seat on Bloom's other side. The three Winx girls began to chat about the latest fairy things.
Toadstool put her hand up for silence. "You guys can talk after the show," she told the Winx. "Now, we have two new contestants from ThunderClan!"
The three ThunderClan cats perked their ears up.
"Everyone...meet Brambleclaw and Jayfeather!"
The deputy and the medicine cat took their two new moss seats.
"Good to have you guys here," said Toadstool.
Brambleclaw's fur began to rise a little. "Why are there so many Twolegs in this room?" he asked.
Firestar dipped his head to the two. "Brambleclaw, Jayfeather," he said as way of greeting.
Leafpool and Squirrelflight tensed. Immediately, they put their fur back down (or 'let it lie flat', whichever way you wanna say it).
Brambleclaw and Jayfeather took their two new moss seats.
"So, that's four new contestants," said Purple.
"But I thought we needed five," Darrel recalled.
"I was getting to that," Toadstool confirmed. "Last, but not least, we have a new contestant from the Mushroom Kingdom."
The locals leaned forward.
"Let's give a warm welcome to...Shy Guy!"
Shy Guy (I'm just gonna call him 'Shy' at some point) said absolutely nothing as he walked to his seat.
"Chao, chao," said Cheese.
"He sure is quiet," Cream translated.
"All right, tomorrow I will give everyone who can't already speak English a translator. That would be Yoshi, Shy—"
"I can speak English!" exclaimed Purple.
"I wasn't talking about you, I was talking about him!" Toadstool pointed to Yoshi.
"Oh..."
"Yoshi, Shy Guy, and Cheese, I'll get you guys translators tomorrow. And now for the other announcement..." Toadstool looked around and said, "Everyone shut up! This is important!"
Toadstool waited for the room to get quiet again. "The first Elimination Ceremony is next episode. I will put a poll online and I'll let the viewers decide who stays and who goes...and who still has a shot at winning the million."
"Anything else, Miss Toadstool?" asked Cream.
"Yeah...I know this is gonna sound unfair to the rest of you," she continued. "But I'm a nice person. Since Stella, Flora, Brambleclaw, Jayfeather, and Shy Guy just got here, they are safe from elimination this time. But it's just this one time!" she said before anyone could complain. "The rest of you...well, I can't really say much except hope you don't get too many votes; the contestant with the most votes will be eliminated." She paused. "And now to end this episode with a dare! This one is for Bowser from...Dragon19kyoshi!
All the Mario series characters in the room cringed.
"Bowser, Dragon dares you to breathe fire on Silver."
In his seat, Silver raised his head. His nose had been buried in a book. "Someone say my name?"
Bowser walked over to Silver's seat.
"Oh, hi! What do you need?" asked Silver.
The Koopa king breathed fire on Silver, burning off nearly all his fur in the process. Bowser, smiling now, walked back to his seat and sat down as if nothing had happened.
"...Whatever." Silver went back to reading his book. Then he realized he had no book. Bowser had burned it.
"You're going to Barns & Mobius and getting me a new book, you sewer rat!" Silver cried in annoyance.
Bowser breathed fire on Silver again.
"Okay! Well..." Toadstool was stupefied. "See you next time on Toadstool89's Truth or Dare Show! Somebody get me the extinguisher...again!"
Hi, guys! I promised you at least one dare, but you got two! I'm still looking for more truths and dares to use on the show. I won't be able to use them next episode because, like I said, that's the first Elimination Ceremony. I'll give more details on that in a second. But first, here's the roster of characters you can truth and dare.
Princess Peach
Bowser
Toadsworth
Mario
Luigi
Toad
Toadette
Rosalina
Shy Guy
Princess Daisy
Wario
Waluigi
Sonic the Hedgehog
Omochao
Amy Rose
Miles "Tails" Prower
Silver the Hedgehog
Shadow the Hedgehog
Blaze the Cat
Rouge the Bat
Knuckles the Echidna
Espio the Chameleon
Cream the Rabbit
Cheese the Chao
Tigress
Viper
Firestar
Leafpool
Squirrelflight
Brambleclaw
Jayfeather
Bloom
Stella
Flora
Note: Stella, Flora, Brambleclaw, Jayfeather, and Shy Guy can't be eliminated for this ceremony because they just got on the show.
I will put a poll on my profile page as soon as I can. Actually, I've been having a poll ready, but since I changed the character roster a little bit I'm gonna have to update the poll before I put it there.
Once the poll is up, you guys better start voting, because I could close that thing at any time (maybe next month or sooner, or later...I dunno). I'm gonna need a lot of votes!
See ya, and don't forget to truth, dare, and, most importantly, vote!
