It was a rainy day in Brooklyn. Papa and Mama Mario were cooking spaghetti and mushroom soup when they heard faint knocking on their door.

"Can you answer that, sweetheart?" Papa Mario asked as he dumped the spaghetti into the boiling water on the stove.

"Sure, honey." Mama Mario abandoned the pot of soup on the stove and went to answer the door. "Hello? Who- what the- Mario, sweetheart, is that you?!"

Mario was lying almost unconscious on the doorstep, covered in cuts, bruises, and burns.

"Oh, my baby! What happened, what happened?" Mama Mario wailed as she pulled Mario inside and hugged him tightly. "Owww...." Mario whimpered as he passed out.

"What is it, Miele?" Papa Mario asked as he peeked into the entrance hallway. "I-is that Mario?! What happened to him?!" He exclaimed, fully entering the hallway and rushing over.

"I don't know! Quick get a towel! Hurry up!" Mama cried as she rushed into the living room carrying Mario and gently set him down on the pillow-laden couch.

Papa ran into the linen closet and grabbed the fluffiest towel he could find, and was about to rush into the living room when he heard the smoke detector go off.

"Merda!" Papa said under his breath as he ran to the kitchen to find the pot of soup on fire. "Merda! Miele, venire qui!"

"I can't, you fool, can't you see Mario is practically dying?! Where is that towel?! He's soa..." Mama's voice trailed off as she realized the smoke detectors ringing loudly.

"Tesoro! Did the soup catch on fire?!" Mama screamed as she quickly left Mario's side. Just then there was another knock on the door. "Oh good, the fire department is here!" Mama rushed into the hallway and yanked open the door, but it was Luigi who stood before her.

"Um...hi mamma, why are the fire alarms going off?" Luigi asked. Daisy peeked out from behind him looking both concerned and happy. "Fire? No problem! I've got an Ice Flower just for occasions like this!" Daisy said, pulling an Ice Flower out of her pocket. She instantly powered up with it and ran inside.

"Uh...Daisy? I don't think....ah, whatever" Luigi mumbled as he followed his wife.

In the kitchen, Papa M was desperately trying to put out the fire. "It won't go out!" He yelled, starting to turn red.

"No worries, PM! Daisy's here to save the day! Let's freaking do this!" Daisy exclaimed as she shoot ice from her hands onto the rampaging fire.

The fire instantly stopped. That was the good news. The bad news? The pressure was too much for the poor stove, which promptly exploded.

"MAMA MIA-"

**A few days later**

Mario was living in the basement of Luigi and Daisy, eating only stale bread and microwavable KD.

"Yooooooooo, Mario! Yech, you're eating Kraft Dinner again? C'mon, Luigi made mushroom pizza!" Daisy yelled, stomping her way into the basement.

"You know I hate mushrooms, Daisy" Mario grumbled, stabbing macaroni with his fork.

"Grumble, grumble, grumble. Don't you live in the mushroom kingdom? You make no sense, Mario!" Daisy did a somersault and hit her head on a wall. "Ow..."

"I'm concerned for your mental health, Daisy. Have you thought of seeing a doctor?" Mario asked as he took a bite of bread.

Bad idea. Daisy slowly stood up. She started turning red. Her hands balled into fists. She looked ready to explode.

"On second thought, mushroom pizza sounds awesome!" Mario yelped as he escaped upstairs to Luigi.
