Here it is! The moment we all have been waiting for! The final Chapter of "The New Girl"! (cue drum roll) Anyways, here you go!

Chapter 17: My new life

Alyssa POV

I woke up in my bed. I looked around my room, then collapsed in the covers. "Thank god, it was only a dream." I told myself.

"Alyssa, come eat breakfast!" My mom called. "And hurry up!" I heard a male voice. Could it be? I rushed out of my bed and into the kitchen.

"Dad!" I ran into his arms when I greeted him. "Dad! You're here! You're here…" I hugged him super hard. "Did I go somewhere?" My dad asked my mom.

"Alyssa, stop fooling around, go wash up so you can eat and get to school. Then I remembered. "Um, I can't go to school today. I'm sick." I did a fake cough to make it seem real.

"No, you're not. I wasn't born yesterday, now go wash up now." "But mom, I just really want to spend time with dad, please?" I tried to reason with her. "Alyssa, calm down, it's not like I'm going anywhere." He reassured me. I looked down.

"For your sake, I hope that's true." I told him.

I walked up the stairs to wash up. When I came back, I ran down the stairs back to my father. I took a seat next to him. "Alyssa, there's…something I have to tell you." He said.

"What?" I asked. He sighed. "You know all things are not what they seem, right?" He asked me. "What are you talking about?" I asked blinking back tears.

"I'm talking about you. You have to wake up and face the fact that I'm not with you anymore." He said sternly. "But daddy" I sobbed, "Why did you leave me?" My dad ignored me.

"Dad! I'm talking to you!" I said, getting frustrated and angrier by the second. My dad looked at me, then smiled. The smile turned to a chuckle, and the chuckle turned to a full- on laugh.

"What's so damn funny about leaving your daughter?" I demanded to know. My father took a sip of coffee. "Alyssa, dear. Wake up."

I woke up on Kamek's medical emergency bed. "She's up!" Kamek told everyone. "Wha- what happened?" I asked. "You fainted when Linda said she was pregnant and when she said she was getting married." Roy said matter-oh-factly. "Oh. Yeah." I said.

"Alyssa! Are you ok?" My mom asked. "No." I turned my back on her and answered. " She's ok." Kamek told her. "Alyssa, the wedding is in 3 weeks. Can you, Wendy, and Violent go with me to get prepared?" My mom asked.

"OH MY GOD, I CAN'T WAIT! I WOULD LOVE TO HELP YOU!" Wendy practically shouted. " I'll help too!" Violent said.

"Well, Alyssa? Are you in?" My mom asked me. "Ugh. I guess." I said unsurely. "Good! We'll leave in 10 minutes!" "Can't it wait until tomorrow?"

I asked her.

"NO!" Wendy, Violent, and my mom yelled at me at the same time. "Ughhhh…" I said falling off the bed. They laughed.

The first place we went to was the mushroom wedding boutique. "Ciao, Linda dear!" The mushroom boutique owner greeted my mother.

"Endive! So nice to see you!" My mom said to her. They exchanged kisses to greet each other. "ew." I said silently. "Shut up" Wendy said elbowing me.

"Ahh, so I heard you're getting married…to Bowser?" Endive asked my mother. "Yes, it's true. The wedding is 3 weeks from now and we have a lot to do today." My mom responded. "Ooh, and you're expecting! How sweet!"

"How awful." I also said under my breath. This time my mother glared at me, then plastered a fake smile on her face. "This is my daughter, Alyssa, my step-daughter, Wendy, and our babysitter, Violent." My mom said as she pointed to us.

"Well, I hope you all are ready to help, because we are busy today!" Endive said with a smile. "Oh boy." I said to myself.

Wendy POV

"And here we have our maternity dresses. Now just let me go get the measuring tape…" Endive said, leaving the room. "Alyssa, see anything you like?" I asked her.

"Why are you asking me for like I'm getting married?" She responded. "Oh come on, be more optimistic." Violent said. "I'll try" she responded.

After hours of measuring,decorating, and other preperations, we finally had the dress completed, and the personalized wedding decorations. The dress was a cream color, with tiny ruffles.

Alyssa tried to convince Linda that a black wedding dress was better, but she went with the idea that Violent and I had.

I thought she looked so pretty-half as pretty as me, of course.

"I wonder how the boys are doing?" Linda asked, when we left the boutique.

With the boys…

"This Tuxedo is too tight!" Bowser shouted, ripping it off. "Bowser, stop ripping the tuxedos up! They cost money, you know!" Kamek said, getting annoyed at Bowser's temper.

"Why don't you just take the shell off dad?" Ludwig suggested. "No, then I'll look regular and ugly like Kamek!" Kamek scowled at him.

"That was cold!" Roy snickered. "Why am I here?" Luigi asked. "Because you're gonna be my best man." Bowser told him.

"But you don't like me!" Luigi said. "Exactly. It'll irk the hell out of your pesky plumber brother." Bowser said with a smirk.

"Kamek, come help me try this Tuxedo on!" "Not until you apologize" Kamek said, with his arms crossed. "KAMEK!" "Yeesh, I wonder if the girls are having this much drama." Iggy said. "Duh. They're girls, of course they are" Larry responded.

Back with the girls…

Alyssa POV

Linda had gotten her hair done, called food caterers, got a band to play at the wedding, and got the rest of us dresses. I was ready to go back to the castle.

"Mom, are we done?" I asked. "We have one more thing to do, and I think you'll like this." she told me. "What is it?" Violent asked. "We have to find a cake" My ears perked up.

"Cake? I always have time for cake! LET'S GO!" "Aren't you lactose intolerant?" Wendy asked. "Cake is an exception." "But.." "CAKE IS AN EXCEPTION!" "Jeez, ok!"

With the boys again…

"Hey green guy, try this tuxedo on." Bowser told Luigi. "Ok…" Luigi said, going to the dressing room. "Well?" he said when he came out.

"Perfect, now the rest of you come out." The rest of the koopalings and Kamek came out their dressing room.

Roy had on a pink tux, Ludwig, a dark blue tux, Lemmy, a yellow tux, Iggy, a green tux, Morton, a gray tux, Larry, a light blue tux, and Junior, plain white.

"Wait, where is Kamek? Kamek, get out here!" Bowser yelled. "I don't want to." "Kamek, I swear, if you don't come out here in 3...2..." "Ok!" Kamek slowly walked out of the dressing room.

Everyone burst out in fits of laughter. Kamek had on a marine dress, with a fake blond wig on. "OMG, you should see how girly you look!" Bowser said, still rolling on the floor.

"Bowser, can I please take this off and put on a tuxedo?" Kamek sighed. "You should have thought about that before you got smart with me!" Bowser said, wiping a tear from laughing.

Kamek cursed under his breath, then walked to the dressing room to take off his outfit. "Ok, everything is done, let's wrap it up and go." Bowser said.

"Wait, you still have your bill." the store clerk said. "Oh yeah." Bowser said, getting the bill.

"WHAT?! 30,000 coins?! You said the suits were 100 coins each!" Bowser roared. "Yes sir, but it seemed that you ripped, um, quite a few suits, and we do have a, "you rip it, you buy it" policy."

"Ha! Now who's laughing?" Kamek said. "It won't be YOU FOR LONG!" Bowser said, chasing Kamek. "Uh-oh" Kamek said, taking off on his broom.

Back to the girls…

Alyssa POV

"Ohh, I don't think I've ever eaten that much in my life…" "I told you not to eat so much samples of cake." Linda lectured her. After so many cake samples, we decided to get a cream frosting cake, with vanilla batter.

"I still say we should have gotten the candy flavored cake" Violent said. "Yeah, that was pretty good. But not as good as the pink batter cake!" Wendy said.

"What was the best cake to you, Alyssa?" "I ate so much I don't even remember…" I said zoned out. "Well, we're done! All that's left is to wait 3 weeks for the wedding!"

"Oh my God! NO!" Linda yelled. "That doesn't go there, THAT goes there!" This was it. The big day. And speaking of big, my mother's stomach was getting kind of noticeable. It just happened so fast, that I… just don't know what to think.

"Alyssa, take the rods out of your hair! Violent, help her out, and Wendy, come help with my dress!" I didn't like my hair. It was a solid black with a short curly bob. I looked too preppy. And to top it off, I had on a cream colored dress.

When Violent was done taking the rods out my hair, I noticed that she still had her hair purple. "Hey, how come she didn't make you change you hair color?" I asked her.

"This is my original hair color. I'm a harpy, remember?" She told me. "Oh yeah…no fair."

With the guys…

"Ok green guy, at the reception, I want you to give a speech telling how awesome I am, ok?" Bowser said. "Ok. Here's what I have so far." Luigi cleared his throat.

"Bowser is a pretty good guy once you get to know him. When I first saw him, I did not like him. At all. The reason being, he always tried to kill me and my brother. But, once you get pass that, he is a pretty nice guy overall to play sports with and go to other social outings."

"Pretty good, pretty good, but when you say that, I want you to look straight at Mario, ok?" Bowser said. "What will this prove again?" Luigi asked. "That I'm better than him in each and everyway." Bowser responded. Luigi shrugged. "Whatever".

In the wedding garden with everyone…

Alyssa POV

"How long do I have to stand like this? My feet hurt!" I said. "Oh, just through the whole wedding." Roy said. "Thank you Roy. I feel so much better hearing that from you." I said sarcastically. "Both of you be quiet! It's bad enough I have to wear this tight tux!" Bowser told us.

I looked over at Kamek. "Bowser, why is Kamek in a fake wig and a dress?" I asked him. But I never got a response because Bowser started to cover his hands over his mouth and laugh. " Never mind."

The wedding music started to play. My mom came through, with goombas holding her dress in the back. Her hair was in a neat curly bun, with a small tiara in it. She was being led by my grandpa, who ran off as soon as he got a good look at Bowser.

Probably due to the fact that his daughter was marrying a reptile. A very scary reptile, to be exact.

Everyone sat down, while Kamek, who was still wearing the fake wig and dress, came up to the stand to get ready to wed my mom and Bowser.

"We are gathered here today to celebrate the wedding of king Bowser IV , and Linda anne Brooksdale." I got bored of hearing Kamek talk, so I decided to think of my dream. It was so weird, I didn't even expect it.

After a good 30 minutes into the wedding, Kamek finally came to a climax. "Do you, Bowser, take Linda to be your lawfully wedded wife?"

"I Do." "And do you, Linda, take Bowser to be your lawfully wedded husband?" " I Do." "If anyone objects to this wedding speak now or forever hold your peace."

" I object!" A voice from the back said. Everyone gasped, including me. "Mario. Why am I not surprised?" Bowser said. "I don't know, you know I was coming." Mario responded.

He looked like he had been drinking. "Luigi, what the hell are you doing here?" Mario asked him. "I'm his best man." Luigi responded. "You betrayed me!" Mario yelled.

"He made me do it, was I just supposed to tell him no?" "Yes!" "Well, I have a surprise for all of you" Mario said, taking Junior's paint brush from behind his back.

Mario fired three hits at Bowser. "What the- STOP!" Bowser shouted, dodging the attacks. Mario fired 3 stray attacks that came at Lemmy. I jumped in front of them, and before I knew what was going on, I vanished.

I didn't know where the heck I was, floating around in some kind of orange-red abyss. "Hey" Said a voice. "Where are you Mario?! Take me back to the wedding!" I yelled. "Ok, I will. Just let me show you something." He said.

Just then, the portal I was in started taking me forward, faster and faster until I saw a bright white light.

The next thing I knew I was in the real-world, in some king of rich upper-class neighbor hood. I looked around. "Where am I ?" I asked myself. I walked around a little until I came across some kids playing in the yard.

I tried to remain hidden so they wouldn't see me. A man came through the front door of their house. "Daddy!" The kids ran to go greet their father. I tried to get a good look at the man's face, and when I did…

"Kids! How are you!" The man replied. I could not believe my eyes. The man was none other than my father. "We love you daddy" The kids told him. "I love you, kids." My father said.

I backed away from the scene. I thought I might pass out again. "So" A voice from behind me said, "You like what you see?" "You know damn well I don't!" I yelled at him, with tears in my eyes.

"You know, I can make everything go back to normal" Mario told me. "What are you talking about!" I snapped at him. He gave me the paint brush he stole from Junior.

"With this paintbrush, you can do so much. You can make everything go back to the way it was, you can be a queen, you can rule anything." I shook my head. "Stop lying to me" I told him.

"Oh, but it's true! Professor ! He reprogrammed it, and made it better!" I turned to face him.

"You're saying that…with this brush, everything will go back to normal for me?" I asked. "Exactly." I hesitated, then grabbed the brush from him. "You won't regret it, I promise."

"I know things look a little bad right now…and they probably won't go back to normal…" I started. "Right. Now go on ahead and use that brush." Mario said.

"…But I know what I have to do now. It's been so obvious… I have to wake up" Mario frowned. "What?" "I have to wake up, face reality. I have to face the fact that my birth dad does not want me, and now I have a new dad that loves and cares for me.

I also have to face the fact that I have new siblings, and I have a new life." I lifted the brush high in the air. "wha-what are you doing? Put it down!" Mario said.

It was too late. I broke the brush on my knee. "You fool! Now you'll never get your life back!" Mario snapped at me. I smiled at Mario as the background around us disappeared. "I have my new life. Where's yours?"

I woke up on the ground. "She's awake!" Ludwig said. "What happened?" I asked rubbing my head. "Mario. He zapped you with that paint brush. Are you okay?" I got up. "Yeah, I'm fine." "Alyssa! Are you alright?" My mom came over to ask.

"Yeah, mom, I'm fine. Now go finish your wedding." My mom smiled at me. She gave me a hug. "Not a hugger, mom!" I told her. Everyone laughed. "Now, where were we? Oh, yeah. You may now kiss the bride."

Bowser swept Linda off her feet and kissed her. As much as I wanted to vomit, I kept my cool because I was happy for them. I remembered something. "Violent!" I yelled.

"What?" She asked. "Are you fired or not?" I asked her. "I don't know, I'll ask him at the reception." she told me, I kept my fingers crossed.

At the reception…

"Bowser is a pretty good guy once you get to know him. When I first saw, I did not like him. At all. The reason being, he always tried to kill me and my brother. But, once you get pass that, he is a pretty nice guy overall to play sports with and go to other social outings."

Everyone clapped for Luigi's speech. I was eager to know if Violent was fired or not. I saw her talking to Bowser. I rushed over to her when they were done talking.

"So?" Violent sighed. "I'm…NOT FIRED!" I Screamed and hugged her. " The others will be happy to hear that! Hey guys! Violent is staying!" I yelled.

"NO WAY! REALLY?" Ludwig shouted. "Ahem. Not that I care or anything." "Sureeee" I smirked at him, then at Violent. She gave me a noogie.

"Ow!" Everyone laughed. "Come on everyone! Let's go dance!" Junior said. I remembered about something else. The letter from Princess Peach. It was supposed to be for my mom, but whatever.

I went behind a tree not very far from the wedding reception and opened the letter. This is what it said:

Dear Ms. Brooksdale,

I am writing this letter to inform you about your daughter, Alyssa. She is a very special child, that will do wonderful things in life. Although she might appear depressed most of the time, she is just expressing her sadness that you nor I can experience. At the bottom at the letter, there is a clip. Please give it to her. It is a secret what the clip does, only she will know.

With regards,

Princess Peach

I looked at the bottom of the letter, and got the clip. It didn't say what to do with it, so I just put it in my hair. When I put it in, I was lifted into the air, with all sorts of bright lights coming from me. Then I was dropped down. I looked down at myself. I was the same person, but I felt, different.

I started smiling to myself, something I wasn't able to do for a long time. "It is a secret what the clip does, only she will know" I ran back to the reception, to join the fun. And for the first time in my life, I actually felt like I belonged.

I'm finished. I'm Finally finished! YES! THANK HEAVENS! Oh, sorry. This took me forever! Don't forget about my upcoming story, "Meet the Koopas"! coming soon! Now if you'll excuse me, I have to relax my brain.
