It was a bright and sunny day in the Mushroom Kingdom. The toads were going along and working hard to repair the kingdom after the last raid. They were all used to it though, Bowser, a giant turtle dragon thing, loved to kidnap Peach, the ruler of the Mushroom Kingdom, quite often.

And little did they know an airship flew towards them right now preparing another attack. On that ship was Bowser himself steering towards his destination. He thought over his plan again and evilly laughed a bit. He just knew he couldn't be thwarted by that Mario this time.

As he was maniacally laughing to himself, he felt a tap on his shoulder. Bowser turned around and saw a man with a large nose and mustache looking up at him with complete disinterest. The man was wearing a headband with fake horns and a green hat with an "L"  on it upon his head. On his back was a homemade shell that looked a lot like Bowser's. There were lots of patches all over it from past damages.

"Oh hey Luigi. What's up?"

"Well...I was just-a wondering why we're trying this again. I mean after the last ten times we could at least try something new." Luigi was tired of the whole charade.

"Oh yeah! Well what do you suggest?"

"I don't know. Maybe we could sneak in instead of blasting into the castle, we could try taking out Mario first, we could try kidnapping another princ-"

"Another princess? Now that actually might be a good idea. The Mushroom Kingdom is too prepared to take on us," Bowser then snapped his claws in realization, "and if we kidnap a princess that has some connection to the Mushroom Kingdom then maybe they will drain their resources to save her, leaving them vulnerable. But who's close to Peach...?"

Bowser looked at Luigi almost expecting an answer but Luigi just shrugged. "Maybe Kamek knows someone." Luigi suggested.

"Maybe I know who?" A voice questioned.

Bowser and Luigi jumped at the sound and turned around to see Kamek looking up at them with a cocked eyebrow.

"Well Kamek we were wondering if you knew any princesses related to Peach. Luigi wanted to try kidnapping a different princess." Bowser jabbed his thumb in Luigi's direction.

Kamek eyed Luigi, "A different princess you say?," then he looked to Bowser, "Related to Peach? Hmm..." Kamek thought for a minute before walking to his room, motioning for Bowser and Luigi to follow. He made his way down into the cellar and pulled out a book. "Well lets see... here are our options." Kamek flipped through the pages skimming them at record speeds. Then he stopped at one princess, the Princess of Sarassaland.

"Who's that?" Luigi asked.

"This is the Princess of Sarassaland, Princess Daisy. She is Princess Peach's cousin and has only been kidnapped once. They are sure to send Mario to save her, leaving Peach open for the taking. Honestly this isn't a bad plan, I'm proud of you guys for coming up with it," Kamek patted both Bowser and Luigi's heads. "Now let me go tell the troops to go to Sarasaland instead." Kamek walked out of the room to go inform the troops on the new plan.

"Good job little bro," Bowser said while ruffling up Luigi's hat, "and since you came up with the plan, you can be in charge of getting the princess."

Luigi fixed up his hat and looked up at his "brother" with joy. "Really?! Your letting me be in charge of a mission! This is going to be great! I won't let you down!"

And with that Luigi ran off to prepare for the kidnapping of the new princess.
