I don't own Mario or The Mole (Darn!). This is also my first fic so don't be too harsh in criticism. I'm not the best fic writer. O3O

I know it will probably be easy to figure out but just tell me how to improve for the next Mole fanfiction.

Looking Ahead

The host was standing on a dock near the sea. "Here they come. 10 contestants, all competing for up to 1,000,000 coins, except one. That one will try to sabotage their money making efforts. The Mole. Knowing their identity. The one vital piece to staying in this game. And winning depends on it. Who. Is. The. Mole."

The boat arrived. The first player jumped out of her cabin like it was a prison.

Bombette Pinkī

The second person daintily stepped out and looked around at the island.

Peach Toadstool

The fourth player stepped out and immediately waved at everyone.

The fifth contestant excitedly jumped out on to the land and smiled.

Kooper Kameki

The sixth player nervously walked out of the room.

Luigi Mario

The seventh and eighth walked out, and looked at each other with recognition.

Axel Lien

The last two people walked out and immediately scowled at each other.

Starlow Centella

Job: Star Sprite Representative

Iggy Koopa

Birthday: November 15th

Job: Prince/Mad Genius

The boat sped into the distance. The ten players looked at each other and wondered where they were.

"Well… now what," said Shilo.

"It's too hot here," Iggy mumbled.

"Shut up, we don't care!" shouted Starlow.

"Does anyone else think we boar…. what's that humming sound?" said Peach.

"NOTHING! Now sh…. oh… I do hear it." Starlow grumbled.

Peach smirked. "Told you."

"It sounds like it's behind me" stated Kooper.

They all walked to a tree when suddenly…

"Oh my gosh! There's a screen strapped to that other tree, over there." Toadette suddenly exclaimed. Axel looked at her strangely.

Axel: We were looking at a tree that was humming and then suddenly Toadette cried out "There's a screen strapped to that other tree, over there." Strange if you ask me...but no one ever does.

The players all ran over to the tree. There was a picture of Donkey Kong on it.

"It's nothing, let's go ove-" Suddenly a recording emitted from the frame.

"Good morning contestants. You ten were chosen to play in this game of lying and backstabbing. You were chosen to play a game of mystery and suspense, stress and excitement. All of you are playing for up to 1,000,000 coins."

Everyone was silent. Toadbert broke the silence, "By boogity that's a lot of money!"

"All of you except one"

Kooper looked confused, "What does that mean…"

"That one is trying to keep as much money out of the pot, because they are the Mole. Their job is to sabotage the efforts of the other nine while keeping suspicion off themself. Do you know who the Mole is? At the end of each episode, the one who is the least knowledgeable about the Mole will leave. So, good luck."

Kooper sighed, "Oh….."

Starlow frowned, "This just got a lot harder"

"Does this mean that this is like survivor? If it is, they should have told us." Iggy complained.

"Shut UP!" screamed Starlow, "We don't care about your complaining! Were you even listening to the recording!"

"Well, what I think we should figure out is how to find the host" Axel piped up.

Everyone agreed. Suddenly the humming was getting louder.

Peach walked over to the tree, "It's coming from this tree…"

Then suddenly a large plane flew over their heads.

"Oh my stars! We're over here!" screamed Iggy.

Starlow mumbled, "Spoiled brat…"

Everyone shielded themselves from the flying sand and soil. The plane landed and one of the producers looked out, "All aboard. Your first mission begins here!"

When everyone was on the plane Shilo and Axel looked around while the others talked.

"Does anyone else find that Axel and Shilo seem to buddy like?" Luigi asked.

"Well one of them is probably the mole and they have the other to place the suspicion on them," Iggy stated.

Starlow cracked a smile, "That's the first intelligent thing you've said all day!"

Iggy sniffled a little.

Peach frowned, "Lay off him Starlow."

Starlow grumbled, "Fine." and left to look around.

Peach: Starlow has been picking on Iggy all the time today. That just isn't like her…

When Starlow was gone Peach turned to Iggy, "Do you want to make a coalition with me? You seem like you have a good idea who the mole is."

Iggy looked at Peach, "OK, but, how do I know that you're not the mole?"

"Just trust me on this," Peach sighed, "So who do you think the mole is?"

Iggy frowned, "Well if Starlow is trying to get me to believe she's the mole she's not doing a very good job… I'd have to say Axel just because he so far is not your average Shy Guy."

Peach tilted her head, "I see what you're saying"

On the other side of the plane Axel was talking with Starlow and looking at Shilo like he was a lite explosive.

Axel: If Shilo is the mole then I'm in big trouble. But knowing him he doesn't hide thing well so I'm just holding onto a loaded gun and hoping it doesn't fire.

Suddenly Shilo called out, "Hey! Look! There are parachutes over here!"

Axel and Starlow immediately ran over to Shilo. Starlow gasped, "Oh my stars! I've all ways wanted to parachute! I am soooo taking the one on the farthest right!"

They heard a soft thunk. Starlow ran over to where it came from and her eyes widened, "Guys, get over here! Kooper fainted!"

The others all rushed over to where Kooper was. Peach gasped, "What did you do!"

Starlow stuttered, "I d-don't think we-we did anything!"

Kooper groaned, "What happened…"

He sat up and every one notice how he looked like he was about jump into a pit of lava.

Toadette sat down next to him and shooed everyone else off, "Here, I might have a cupcake for you."

While she brought out a case from her backpack Kooper looked at her and asked, "Do you always have cupcakes with you?"

"Well I always have some extra homemade food in my backpack." Toadette stated. She gave the cupcake to Kooper and he gladly starting eating it.

"So I take it that you're afraid to jump or something?" Toadette questioned.

Kooper sighed, "Yes. I'm terrified of heights and all…"

Toadette nodded, "I am to and I would assume Luigi is to!" They both smiled when Toadette added, "Do you want to become coalition partners?"

Kooper giggled, "Yes! I have almost no idea who it is!"

Toadette nodded, "Well I think that it can't be Iggy, that would be to obvious!"

Kooper nodded in agreement right as a producer walked in, "For this challenge you will be tandem skydiving out of this plane at 13,000 feet high! You jump two at a time! If all of you go you earn 50,000 coins, but if even one of doesn't go no money is earned!" A lot of people cheered but Luigi and Kooper looked sick. "So grab a parachute and let's go!"

Peach and Luigi jumped first one of the instructors yelled, "ARE YOU READY?" over the roar of the wind and Peach shouted back, "YES" and they disappeared in to the wind.

Luigi shivered as he felt the wind rushing past him.

Luigi: I looked out and thought 'If I die today at least it will be quick!'

Peach and Luigi were both screaming, one in exhilaration the other in utter terror.

"Tell me-a when it's over!" Luigi screamed, whose eyes were closed so tightly, tears were coming out.

Peach giggled, "Open your eyes silly! It's wonderful out here!"

Luigi screamed:

"No it's not! We're-a gonna die!"

Peach frowned, "Well if you're going to die at least die in the open air, not the dark!"

Luigi whimpered, "OK…" opened his eyes and gasped.

Toadbert and Shilo were falling through the air.

Toadbert was amazed. "By boogity, if I'm right then there is a 1 in 100,000 chance that out parachute will break and a 1 in 10,000 chance that it already broken and a 1 in 10,000,000 we'l-"

"Shut up already! I don't need to know all the doom and gloom facts about skydiving! You're making me paranoid!" Shilo yelled.

"Oh…"

Kooper and Toadette were approaching the ground.

Kooper laughed, "That wasn't as bad as I thou- AKC! Leaf in my mouth!"

Toadette giggled, "Ha ha! You ate a leaf!"

Kooper gagged, "Ith not fu-y! Ith tasth weally bab...Ewww"

Kooper coughed and a leaf came out of his mouth.

Toadette frowned, "Nasty…"

Axel and Iggy had just jumped. Iggy was giggling madly.

"Ohmygosh! We'resohighandit'ssoawesome!"

Axel frowned, "Dude! You sound like you're going to explode!"

Iggy giggled, "Heheheheheh!"

Bombette and Starlow had just landed.

"Oh my stars! That was so much FUN!" Starlow cried.

Bombette giggled, "Did you see those mountains! That was AWESOME!"

"I was looking up and the parachute and the sun cast this pretty glow on me!"

Bombette laughed, "Mine too, except it was pink!"

On the ground people were discussing the game.

Peach turned to Luigi, "I was wondering if you would like to make a coalition with me?"

Luigi was startled, "Why me?"

Peach shrugged, "I don't know...I already have a coalition with Iggy so if you say no then I understand."

Luigi smiled, "Well... I can't refuse free information. Let's go talk to Iggy!"

On the other side of the airport, Shilo and Axel were talking.

"Well, who do you think the mole is?" Shilo stared at Axel.

Axel shook his head, "I won't tell you."

Shilo frowned, "Why?"

"We may have been friends even before this show, but I'm going to win it even if I have to lie to everyone!"

Shilo smiled.

Shilo: Axel said 'I'm going to win it even if I have to lie to everyone' which is exactly what the Mole would have to do...hmmm...I'm going to have to keep an eye out on him.

DK stepped out on to a platform and announced to the group:

"When I call your name and you jumped please answer me. If you didn't jump and you answer, there will be consequences. Axel and Iggy?"

They simultaneously responded "Here!"

"Bombette Luigi and Kooper?"

"Here here and here!"

"Peach?"

"Here!"

"Shilo, Starlow, Toadbert, and Toadette?"

"All present and accounted for!"

DK smiled, "Well then we have more pressing matters to talk about."

There was an intense scilence.

"Well, first of all, you have successfully added 50,000 coins to the pot!"

Everyone cheered. But inside the Mole was seething at the amount of money gained.

DK nodded, "Also I would like to award the first exemption to someone."

Suddenly everyone went silent.

"I would like to call up the person with the green parachute."

Someone stepped up to the platform.

"Well, then I guess the first exemption goes to-"

How do you like it? It's my first and you probably already have suspicions. There is a poll on my profile for who the mole is. Also many of my clues are or could be misleading. Or maybe I'm misleading you. I don't know. Well... I do... you don't. Also could you please review? I need all the help I can get for writing my fanfictions. Thanks! O3O
