It was May 14th 2009, when Princess butterfly and the mushroom king decided to get married.
It was under a beautiful Crescent moon,
In the middle of the safety circle. (seen on the map.) Unfortunately, Just as the mushroom king had finished proposing, Abigail, head of the royal council showed up. “princess! No!” she said while running up, “you know full well the mushroom king is a murderer!” “but there’s no proof!” the princess said. “nevertheless, I have to get you back to your Castle.” And then, she dragged Princess butterfly back to her castle, shooting The mushroom king mean looks all the while. When Abigail got back to the eagle palace,
She told me (Queen eagle is my name.) of her “rescue.” Both me AND princess Butterfly Know that The mushroom king is a nice guy, but according to Abigail, its guilty until proven innocent. And no one can change her mind, not even me. I decided I would sleep on it.
that night, when even Abigail was asleep, the mushroom king snuck into butterfly’s castle,
and invited her to his palace. Of course she said yes, and their night was filled with food, drink, and Twister. But their laughs woke Abigail,
Who immediately ran to the Mushroom palace, and found them with their right arms on red, their left arms on green, and both legs on yellow. She immediately dragged Butterfly off to her palace, and king mushroom to the dungeon. As Abigail locked the cell, The mushroom king couldn’t help thinking, “what is with her?”
And he actually had a point, if I do say so myself. That day as Abigail told me of her Second “rescue” I decided enough was enough.
I went over to princess butterfly’s castle, and together, we devised a plan. But we would wait until nighttime, to put it into action.
That night, I snuck out with butterfly to free the mushroom king.
After much pounding of the bars with a hammer, ( for only Abigail held the keys.) we managed to free him. I took them over to a clover hill in the park, where we would begin the ceremony. Of course though, our shuffling woke up Abigail, (who, as you may have noticed, is a VERY light sleeper.) And as I began to marry them, the palace gaurds showed up! And so, I was forced to do the ceremony while fighting them off. “princess butterfly!” I socked someone in the stomach. “do you vow to stay with mushroom king, in sickness and health?”
“I do!” she said, obviously excited. “Mushroom king!” I kicked someone in the shin. “do you vow to stay with butterfly,” I ducked. “Through rich and poor?” he hesitated, and then said, “I do.”
And they kissed just as the sun rose. J
Aftermath:
I don’t really need to say it: they all lived happily ever after! Butterfly and The mushroom king love to have picnics on that hill of clovers, in honor of their wedding night. And they still love the game twister. Abigail continues to compulsively guard Svendoolia, but she’s been a little choosier about threats since then.
And I love to drop by the mushroom palace (where they usually are these days.) for little visits. In short, everything was just peachy. Until the next adventure of course. ;)
