"Hello, and welcome to meet the parents, the chat show with a difference. Today, we will be meeting some of Gaming history's most famous characters, and not only that, you are given the unique opportunity to meet their parents! Today's guests are:
Mario
Solid Snake
Link
Crash Bandicoot
And finally Sonic the hedgehog.
Well, let's invite our first guest in! Welcome Mario to the show!"
*Clapping commences*
A green pipe pops out of the ground, and Mario jumps out. He gives a smile and sits down on the sofa.
"Hello Mario, welcome to the show"
"Hello, it's-a me, Mario"
"We know, anyway, what are your parents like?"
"Well-a, for starters, they-a overwork me. I have-a to do all their plumbing, they always have the need-a for a pizza, and they force-a me to eat magical mushrooms. I can't take-a it anymore!"
*Mario breaks down into tears*
"Let's… Meet the parents!"
Two pipes come out of the ground, Mario's lanky father jumps out, and sits on the sofa. Smoke starts appearing from the other pipe, as Mario's mother, who is rather big, has gotten stuck. Two crates of lard, a couple of cranes and a forklift truck later, she emerges from the pipe.
"Please, take a seat."
"Thank-you-a very much-a!"
"Mario tells us you treat him unfairly. Apparently, you make him do all of your plumbing, and you force him to eat 'magical' mushrooms. Is this true?"
"In-a word, yes."
"Well, don't you feel ashamed? Your son has saved princess peach countless amounts of times, and all you do is make him do the plumbing? Shame on you!"
"Princess peach? You mean-a, that woman that has slept-a with bowser and all his children, and all of the toads in-a the mushroom kingdom all at once? We force Mario to do our plumbing, so he can keep away from that evil-a woman!"
"Princess Peach? Slept with bowser? That's ridiculous!"
"Well-a, what do you think-a she does all that time-a while Mario tries to save-a her? She gets-a bored, you know. Now-a, where's that pizza I delivered-a"
*A parakooper flies down and hands Mario's mother the pizza*
"Now, Mr.Mario, do you think your wife's actions are fair?"
"Well-a, I don't have-a much choice, because you see-a, she will-a eat me if I don't do-a what she says-a!"
"Ah, well, that explains it. Well, we have another unhappy family to chat to next, so it's a goodbye for today. Make sure your wife doesn't get stuck on the way out!"
"It's-a Ok, we ordered-a an extra large-a pipe for her!"
*Mr and Mrs Mario jump down their Pipes, while Mario takes a seat in the audience*
"Well, wasn't that interesting? Please welcome, Solid Snake!"
*Snake Jumps down from the ceiling*
"Please, Snake, sit down. Now, what are your parents like?"
"Well, I don't know my Parents really, but from what I know, they are just like me"
"We have a surprise for you, Snake, let's….. Meet your parents!"
*Mr and Mrs Snake sneak through the audience and sit on the sofa*
"Welcome to the show, I understand Snake doesn't know you then"
"No, he doesn't, we don't have time for him. He was a mistake, you see. We were investigating a movement of Gears in Southern France, and we got, er, sidetracked."
"Oh, well, isn't that interesting folks! So, what was Snake like as a baby?"
*Deadly silence. The camera zooms in on the sofa to find it empty, the only evidence that someone was there is a piece of pepperoni from Mrs Mario's pizza*
"Erm, due to certain circumstances, we will have to cut that a bit short, so, let's invite Link to the show! "
*The wall collapses, as Link rides in on Epona, with a bottle of Lon-Lon milk in his hand. He jumps off, and sits down*
"Welcome to the show link, so, what are your parents like?"
"Well, none of you have ever seen my parents, as I was left in the forest by my mother, but they are, from what I remember, wonderful."
"Really, well, that makes a change from what we have seen so far, so, let's met the parents!"
A man and a woman start walking towards the sofa, but are prevented from reaching it by a Japanese man.
"Hey, get off my Parents! Who are you anyway?"
"It's me, your Dad, I gave you life. You were once a memory of my Childhood adventures, but I wanted to let you free!"
"Shigsy, is that…you?"
"Yes link, it's me."
"Why do you keep preventing me from seeing my Parents?"
"Because they don't exist. Link, I am your father."
"Oh God, don't go all Star Wars on me now, that's all I need."
They both sit back down on the sofa
"So, Mr Miyamoto, when did you decide to unleash Link into the world?"
"When I remembered my childhood adventures in my secret cave. I thought they were the best times of my life, so I decided to make a game starring Link, my cleverly disguised inner-child."
"It's all so clear now, thank-you"
"That's Ok, now, son, lets go home"
"Ok dad, I'm just finishing my milk. Oh, can Zelda come round for tea again tonight?"
"Yeah, sure, we're having Sushi!"
They ride off into the distance on Epona, and the audience applause them. The camera moves to a large man throwing Link's fake parents in the skip conveniently parked outside.
"Wasn't that nice ladies and Gentlemen, and Mario, who is neither man or woman"
"Hey-a!"
"Heh, anyway, let's invite our next guest out… Crash bandicoot!"
A tornado enters the studio, and finally halts, which turns out to be crash.
"Please, sit down"
"No, me and my dinosaur friend are going for ice-cream! Bye!"
"No, don't go, I need to do an interview with you! Oh well, I suppose we should invite our last guest into the studio, Sonic the Hedgehog!"
Sonic speeds into the studio, and sits down.
"Welcome to the show Sonic. What were your parents like?"
"Well, my Parents, they were, well, interestingly weird. My Father was a mad scientist, Dr Robotnik to be precise…
*Audience gasps in shock*
And my mother was a hedgehog."
"You mean, a man and a hedgehog had a child?"
"That's what I said!"
"But… how?
"Science. My father was able to create a machine that would allow for my Mother to become human for a day, but the hedgehog DNA would still be passed down."
"Amazing, and, why are you blue then?"
"A side effect from the experiment, you see, when I was born, my father was so amazed at how well the experiment turned out, he loved and cherished me like a real boy. That was until he found out I was blue, as he is colour blind, infact, every character from Sonic games are colour blind, apart from me and Shadow."
"That explains why everyone got you mixed up."
"Precisely, that's why I was framed, and had to clear my name!"
"Ah, right. So, after he found out you were blue, what happened?"
"He tried to kill me, but I escaped, and fled to the forest, where I have lived ever since"
"Well, let's meet your parents!"
Dr Robotnik flies in, holding a box with a hedgehog inside. He hovers above the sofa.
"So, Dr robotnik, you are Sonics Father."
"What the? How did you know that? Well, I will have to kill you now!"
*He fires a laser at the presenter, but he dodges it*
"Security, SECURITY!"
"Hah, those pitiful fools can't stop me!"
*The fight continues*
"Well, we are going to have to stop it there, erm.. Thanks for tuning in today, and have a good evening. Goodnight!"

good post there mate, I enjoyed it. It's a shame Sonic didn't know he's blue because the speed as which he runs means the brown pigment left his quills. I mean, everyone knows that and not him!? Pfffft.
Good luck with the GAD pal.
