Where we last left off, our heroes were following the princesses, Fine and Rein to the Princess Party. At the said party, multiple people gathered around for the festivities. In the castle, trumpets were blown as King Truth and Queen Elsa stood.

"I would like to commence the first Princess Party." Truth announced.

Camelot was looking around, hoping for Fine and Rein to arrive soon.

"Ah, it has finally started. Rein-Sama, Fine-Sama, please return as soon as possible!"

On the dance floor, a handsome boy with dirty blonde hair and deep magenta eyes was dancing with a girl with long fluffy blonde hair.

"Jewelry Kingdom's Princess Altezza-Sama and Prince Bright-Sama."

All the people alongside the other Princesses and Princes were watching in amazement.

"As wonderful as we thought."

"Beautiful."

"Altezza is beautiful."

"Ba..." Cooed an infant on a floating star.

"Wow, Bright-Sama~" Eleven identical tiny princesses said simultaneously.

"Ah, wonderful, Bright-Sama..." Bright said before looking down. "But I probably can't dance as well as Altezza can..."

Altezza chuckled as she continued to dance with Bright.

"Of course I, Princess Altezza, will be the first of the Best Princess."

She continued to dance, until they stopped.

"Oniisama?"

"If I were to just dance with you, it would be unfair." He turned to the other princesses. "Alright, princesses. Shall we dance?"

He went to dance with the others as Altezza frowned. "I can't believe you, oniisama. Hmph!" She huffed as she walked away.

"Waterdrop Kingdom's Princess Mirlo-Sama!"

Bright offered a hand to Mirlo as she happily accepts and danced with him.

"Windmill Kingdom's Princess Sophie-Sama!"

Bright danced with Sophie.

"Moon Kingdom's Princess Milky-Sama!"

Bright danced with the infant.

"The Princesses of the Seed Kingdom!"

Bright danced with the eleven tiny princesses.

Meanwhile, with Fine, Rein, and the heroes, they were running across the halls.

"Poomo's explanation took too long!" Fine complained.

"Now we're going to be late for the Princess Party."

"What is a Princess Party exactly?" Sonic asked. "Does that mean I have to wear a dress?"

"Gee, I hope not, I hated wearing those dresses when we joined Sarah's tea party." Eddy said.

"But I felt so pretty Eddy!" Ed chimed in.

"A Princess Party is where the other kingdoms are held to determine who is the best Princess!" Rein explained.

"Poyo!" Kirby said, thinking what kind of food there's going to be at the party.

"If we're going to a party, we must look our best!" Double-D took out some ties from underneath his hat and decided which to wear.

"Tell that to Lumpy." Eddy motioned to Ed.

"We're almost there!" Fine said as the guards opened the door. But as they got in, Fine tripped as the audience gasped.

"Ooh, Well that's gonna leave a mark." Knuckles winced.

"Oh! Our Sunny Kingdom's Princess Rein-Sama and Fine-Sama!"

Everyone stared at the fallen Fine.

Alas, now it's totally impossible for them to be selected as Best Princess. Camelot thought with tears flowing down her eyes as she rocked back and forth.

"Owie..." Fine said.

"Are you okay, Fine?" Rein asked.

"Princess Fine?" They both see Bright standing in front of them.

"Who's Prince Charming?" Eddy said as Double-D elbowed him.

"Bright-Sama~~~" Rein said dreamily with hearts in her eyes.

"Princess Fine." Bright offered a hand to Fine. "Would you mind dancing with me?"

"Eh? Me?" She gasped before pushing Rein who still had hearts in her eyes. "Dance with Rein instead of me!"

This caused Rein to snap out of it as she flustered. "Eh? But I'm just wearing my normal clothes..."

"That's okay, you look wonderful Princess Rein."

Rein's face turned bright pink as Bright offered her hand.

"Let's dance."

"Y-Yes..."

"Somebody's in love." Tails chuckled as Rein and Bright began dancing.

I'm dancing with Bright-Sama, the super idol of all the girls of the Mysterious Star. It's like a dream...

But then, Rein accidentally stepped on Bright's foot.

"Doh," Mario said with a wince.

Rein gasped. "I-I-I'm so sorry! What should I do!?"

"It doesn't hurt at all, you're very light." Bright said.

Rein swooned as her heart began beating faster. Meanwhile, Fine made her way over to a large cake.

"While this is going on, I can finally have some cake!"

"Ooh, cake." Mario said. "Big as the ones-a Peach bakes."

"Poyo!" Kirby picked up a fork and knife excitedly.

"Yum yum cake!" Ed was about to bite the cake but Double-D held him back.

"Ed! You must have table manners! These People don't even know us yet and we have to make a good first impression!"

Fine was about to get a piece, before noticing Lione.

"Lione?"

"I-I can't do it."

"What's-a wrong?" Luigi asked, having gotten himself a slice of cake.

"I can't dance."

"Eh?" Fine said.

"I know I will fail!. Maybe I'll make a bigger mistake than Rein did, and Bright-Sama will hate me!"

"That won't happen." Fine comforted and puts her hand on Lione's shoulder. BBut then, the lights began to flicker as the room became dark.

"Hey, what happened to the lights?" Eddy said, looking around.

"Maybe a power outage?" Sonic guessed.

"The power of the Blessing of the Sun, just as I thought." Elsa said in worry.

"Let's not discuss this now..." Truth said before turning to the audience. "The system that takes power from the Blessing of the Sun has had a technical difficulty. Until the system is up again, please wait.

"Oh no, the lights went out!" Lione shuddered. "This must be a bad omen meaning I better not dance!"

She began to sob as the twins took notice. Not wanting to see her like this, they looked at each other.

"What will we do?"

"What will we do?"

"What should we do?"

"What should we do?"

"Let's try it!" They both said simultaneously.

"Try what?" Knuckles said.

"Use the Prominence I taught you earlier-pumo." Poomo spoke.

"Wait, when did that happen exactly?" Eddy asked.

"Right!" The Princess Twins nodded as they took out their Sunny Luches.

"Transformation sequence!" Ed chimed happily.

"Fan fan, Fine!"

"Ran ran, Rein!"

The two glowed as their hair became curly and gained tiaras.

"Prominence dress up!"

Then they gained poofy princess dresses, their hair became done up in elegant curls, and scepters came out of their compacts as they grabbed them then posed.

"Mama-Mia!" Mario said.

"Cool!" Sonic grinned, giving a thumbs up.

"Poyo!" Kirby hopped.

"...Nope, can't think of a word." Ed said.

"How is playing dress up gonna turn the lights back on?" Eddy questioned.

Everyone else all stared in awe before Bright smiled.

"It's wonderful!" Bright said.

Fine and Rein held their scepters.

"Twinkle twinkle bloomish! Put the light... on Lione!"

They summoned magical sparkles as they rained on Lione, then a light shined upon her like a spotlight.

"Lione, you can dance now!" Fine said.

"Cheer up," Rein said.

"Yes, you-a got this." Mario nodded.

"Yeah kid, you can do this." Sonic grinned and gave her a thumbs-up.

"Poyo." Kirby nodded.

"This may sound cliche Lione, but be yourself." Double-D said.

"Even if you fail, we won't laugh at you." Fine said.

"That's right, because we're friends." Rein said.

Lione listened to their support before getting determined, no longer looking nervous.

"Okay, thank you, everyone."

She walked up to Bright as he entered the spotlight before bowing.

"Will you dance with me?"

"Yes, it will be my pleasure."

Lione took his hand and began dancing with him.

"You can do it, Lione." Fine said.

"We know you can." Tails said.

Lione and Bright kept on dancing until the lights went back on.

"Now that's what I'm talking about." Knuckles grinned.

Later, Truth and Elsa were about to announce the Best Princess.

"Let me announce, the Best Princess of the first Princess Party is... Princess Lione!"

The audience clapped.

'Eh, me?" Lione gasped.

"You did it, Lione!" Fine and Rein cheered.

"That was awesome!" Sonic gave a thumbs up.

"Oh yeah!" Mario patted her.

"Poyo!" Kirby cheered.

"Well, you were pretty great out there." Eddy admitted with a shrug.

"Thank you, thank you everyone." Lione smiled as she was given a pendant by Elsa.

"Your dance was brilliant, just like your smile." Elsa said. "You are a very wonderful Smiling Princess."

"Thank you." Lione bowed.

"What "Smiling Princess"!?" Altezza scoffed. "If it's dancing, I'm the best!"

"Someone's a sore loser." Eddy chuckled.

"I heard that!"

"Now I can finally have some cake!" Fine motioned to the table where the cake was, but it's gone. "Huh!? No cake!? Where's the cake!?"

"Babu." Cooed Milky who had a two slices of cake.

"D-Did you eat the whole cake by yourself?" Fine stared in bewilderment.

"Babu!" Milky eat the last two pieces.

"NO!" Fine exclaimed before slumping.

"Poyo!"

"Huh? Kirby?" Fine turned to the pink puffball who had a slice of cake.

"Poyo!" He offered her.

"Aw, you saved that for me? Thank you!" Fine hugged Kirby as he Poyo'd happily.

As the heroes were enjoying the party, Sonic noticed a strange person behind of the pillars before disappearing.

"Who was that?"

"Something the matter, Sonic?" Tails asked.

"Maybe it's just my mind messing with me..."

"Say Sonic, you ever wonder what happen to Eggman and-a Bowser?" Mario said.

"I don't know, but I just know they're up to something." Sonic said tensely.


Somewhere else in the Mysterious Star, a hidden base that was hidden, there were a bunch of humanoid turtles, living brown mushroom creatures and so many others of all kinds looked like they were having a party of their own.

A Koopa rock band was playing a rock song dedicated to their king, Bowser.

Speaking of Bowser, the Koopa King himself was sitting on his throne.

"My army!" He boomed.

"Koopas!" He motioned to two Koopas who bowed.

"Goombas!" He motioned to the brown creatures as two bonked their heads.

"Whatever the fuck those things are!" He motioned to two creatures with red spiked shells who slumped.

"For years, we have been defeated by that wretched red plumber, Mario!" Bowser said as his army booed at the said plumber. "But now, I have a new plan! We will take over this planet!"

"But King Bowser, didn't you try to take over the galaxy not once but twice and it failed?" A Koopa said, then suddenly he was burned by a stream of fire, reducing him into a skeleton but is still standing and alive. As He looked at his new body, his friend gave him an annoyed look as if to say 'what did you think it was gonna happen?'.

"Well yes, but this time we have assistance from our old friend, Dr. Ivo Robotnik!" Bowser introduced a man with a big mustache on a flying pod. This made the Koopa Troop cheer loudly.

"Please, Call me Dr. Eggman."

"So Egghead, why are we going to take this planet?" Bowser said.

"Well, after my latest defeat from that hedgehog, during my research across the galaxy, I found this planet called the Mysterious Star. It is said to have vast energy akin to the sun itself, so I decided to take that energy and harness it to make my machines more powerful than they ever been before!"

"And after that, the universe will be ours!" Bowser grinned.

"But sir, what happens if the Mario Bros or Sonic would come to stop you?" Another Koopa said and then was burned by Bowser's fire, turning into a Dry Bones like the other guy was.

"As if, we managed to keep this plan hidden so they won't find out."

"But If they do find out, we'll make sure they don't interfere!" Eggman said. "We have plenty of contingencies in case they show up!"

"All hail Bowser and Eggman! All hail Bowser and Eggman!" The army chanted.

"The Mysterious Star will be ours!" The villains all laughed.
