Iggy: I don�t think this party is going too well.
Dani: Nonsense! I think it�s going great! I mean, the music�s excellent; the guests are having a great time�
She gets cut off by a loud scream of �CHEESE!� and a crash.
Dani: �Mario especially� And the food�s beyond belief!
Iggy: We have Princess Peach to thank for that!
Crazykoopa: Yeah, the food�s good, but there�s no crumb cake! How can you have a party without crumb cake!?
Dani: Hmm� Loads of sugar, a mess of people, and rambunctious music?
Crazykoopa: � Sounds good to me!
The song goes from a slow, calm beat to a more rocking tune. Dani giggles, having had a few pieces of the Sweet Shroom Cake.
Dani: I think it�s dance time!
Iggy: Have a good time� I�d dance, but I have two left feet.
Crazykoopa: Well I have a left foot and a right foot and I�m gonna try!
Iggy grins at his two friends. They never ceased to make him laugh� or at least grin. Dani walked off to talk to her parents, Luigi and Princess Daisy. Crazykoopa began to talk about the tennis season to Iggy.
Crazykoopa: So, how�s the Castle League faring in the tournaments?
Iggy: Very well, I have to say.
Soon enough, the guests at the party start to grow bored.
Morton: I�m bored, uninterested, tired of something, bored stiff�
Larry: Morton, shut up!
Luigi: I have to agree with Morton, though. It is kinda boring now�
Dani: Then we need to come up with something to do.
Roy: Thank you, Miss Obvious!
Dani: Just doin� my job.
Crazykoopa: How about the �See Who Can Eat the Most Crumb Cake� game?
Mario: CHEESE!
Morton: I one time watched, saw, was spectator, monitored a television show that was called, named, went by, titled �Survivor.� It was about�
Roy: Morton, be quiet or I�ll make you!
Princess Daisy stood up. When she did, all the boys looked directly at her. Peach huffed.
Daisy: No, Roy. He may be onto something. Go on, Morton.
Roy: Just make it snappy!
Morton: It was about people who were stranded, stuck, marooned on a deserted, abandoned, uninhabited, isolated, remote island and the person who was left at the end won a prize, reward, gift�
Roy had taken all he could stand and taped Morton�s mouth shut.
Luigi: A reality show, eh? That sounds� interesting.
Bowser: Especially the whole winning a prize thing!
Dani: That would be a great idea for a party game! A spin-off of Survivor!
Iggy: Yeah�
Lemmy: �It does sound like fun.
Ludwig: But why settle for it being just a party game? I hear that people who go on television shows such as that get paid a lot of money for participating. If we could broadcast this on television�
Bowser: Great idea, Ludwig! Then there�d be more money for ME!
Mario: CHEESE!
Morton: MMMMPH!
Crazykoopa: Someone�s been hanging around Wario too much lately.
Larry finishes Ludwig�s statement.
Larry: Everyone would benefit because everyone would receive a prize, small or whatever. It�s almost like when you plant a flower and the ladybugs eat all the nasty insects that would typically make that flower lunch!
Roy: Oh geez, don�t you start going Mortonish!
Bowser: Then it�s settled! We�ll start a reality show and broadcast it on television!
Everyone cheers at the idea of being on television� and the thought of getting paid to play a game. However, Ludwig spoiled the excitement.
Ludwig: Wait! We can�t start a show just like that! First we�ll need a setting for it, and then we�ll need contestants, a show host, a camera crew, and a time slot on a television channel to broadcast our show on!
Iggy: That�s gonna cost�
Lemmy: �A lot of Coins!
Peach: I can handle the payment.
Bowser: So can I.
Ludwig: Then you two can split the costs in half. Now then, we�ll need a setting.
Larry: Oh! We can set our show in Grass Land! I know where there�s a place that�s completely isolated!
Ludwig: Grass Land it is. Now we need contestants.
Dani: How about everyone who�s here?
Ludwig is about to speak, but Daisy cuts him off.
Daisy: Don�t worry about the rest. I know of a good station for us to broadcast our show on.
Peach: �In Sarasaland.
The princesses are about to fight, but Crazykoopa makes a suggestion.
Crazykoopa: Hey! How about Princess Daisy broadcasts on Sarasaland television, and Princess Peach broadcast it on Mushroom Kingdom television? Then it�d be all over Plit!
The princesses nod their heads in agreement� for once. Everything was worked out. They decided to wait until that following Firstday to begin the show. So all they could do for now was wait�
Go on to Week One.
Go back to the Castle Grounds from here.
