Dangerous Odyssey (When You Wish Upon A Star) (Patreon)

((Y/N)'s POV)

I was still crying in a corner of the room with the lights off now since I thought of anyone found me, I might be in trouble for being in a place that isn't mine. The only light I had was from the moon and the only warmth I had was from my clothes and it was just so cold in here. Not as cold as outside, but I think I could see my breathe a little. Soon I saw a light from outside getting brighter until it went away, so I stayed quiet. It wasn't long before I saw a shadow of something flying then soon after I heard a voice that I couldn't understand at first because it was too quiet for me to really hear until it got closer to the front door.

???-In here? *muffled*

I started to wonder if I locked the door, but it didn't matter when a light came through the door and when it flashed to light up the whole cabin for a bit I saw a woman with a flying star next to her acting as a light for her.

<figure></figure><figure></figure>

She looked around until she just saw me in the corner and when i snapped out of it, I knew who it was from Super Mario Galaxy... It was Rosalina and Luma and she came up to me slowly looking very worried.

Rosalina-Excuse me little one. Are you lost?

Her voice was just so soft and smooth, but a little deeper than Peach's voice I think... Or am I looking for another word?

Rosalina-Hello?

I snapped out of my thoughts again then realized she got closer without me noticing, but I know how kind she is. She reads books to living fat stars and was like a mom to all of them.

Rosalina-I heard your wish and it sounded like you needed help, so I came to grant it. May I have your name?

(Y/N)-It's (Y/N).

Rosalina-Here, let me see if you're hurt.

She checked me a little while bringing me out of the corner, but when she grabbed my hand to do it.

Rosalina-Oh no, you're freezing. Come with me.

She lead me over to the fireplace then shot it with a star that sparked up a fire on the wood in there and sat next to me near the fire to check me some more.

Rosalina-Alright, you seem ok. Just stay near the fire and warm up.

She pulled me on her lap while her star Luma flew around the us to keep an eye on us while Rosalina tried to make me feel better.

Rosalina-Can you tell me about your home? I believe that I can help.

The way she made me feel even after I said I didn't want to trust anyone here anymore just felt so good and I even felt a little safe. I tried to tell her what happened to me as best as I could in a way, she would believe me, and she gave me a soft smile while petting my head.

Rosalina-You poor thing. You must've been so scared to be separated from your father, but i'm afraid I still do not know where your home is exactly. Do you remember or have an idea how you ended up at the Mushroom Kingdom?

(Y/N)-I was just home when something in my living room exploded, I think... Then I was in the woods.

Rosalina-How curious... Perhaps is you come to my observatory with me, I can track down your home another way.

At first, I didn't think it would work, but since she can teleport to worlds she can see then maybe if you can track how I came here down... I just nodded my head to her then she stood up with me before a light started to glow around us until I saw nothing, but white.

(Chain Chompette's POV)

I was in a snowy place and the trail for (Y/N) was getting stronger and stronger, so I was very close, Excitement was all I could feel that I lost myself in my thoughts until I busted through a very big rock and got covered in dust and lost a bit of speed until I came out of the now smaller rocks. I spotted a small mansion thing made out of wood and tried to slow down, but i slid on the snow and busted through the wall on accident. The smell was telling me he was right here, but I didn't see him.

Chain Chompette-Hello, (Y/N)?... Where are you?

(Rosalina's POV)

We just teleported in my library of the observatory where I knew there was a fireplace to keep him warm still while a fire guard should keep him safe from ash that might slip out and I made sure to put the fire out at that cabin just to make sure an accident didn't happen. I saw him down on the rug and I just needed a small sample from him to try and search for his family on the plant and I gave his hair a firm rub that didn't hurt him and I got 3 loose hairs, but I only needed 1.

Rosalina-Wait right here.

(Y/N)-Ok.

I just left my library to get to where I search planets then focused my magic to feel for his father, but that was the odd part... I didn't feel anything. There was not even one relative I could find on the planet, so maybe that light he spot about brought him to this planet somehow which leads to the bigger picture...

Rosalina-If I don't know what world he's from... How can I send him back?

I tried my best to think of a solution that wouldn't break the poor child's heart, but then the answer hit me. I have a spell somewhere in my library that will let me search his memories of his home and his father. Relief soothed my heart as I went back to my library only to see the cutest sight... (Y/N) was sleeping next to the fire on the rug.

<figure></figure>

I adored the sight as I fetched the book with the spell and Luma helped me by getting it off the top self. I just placed it on a stand then soon found the spell and followed the instructions exactly before I casted it on the child.

Rosalina's mind-Now let's see what I can find about his home and father.

I quickly found that his home was quite different than this one, but I know a few worlds like this, some of which are not very welcoming to visitors, so I choose to avoid those. It looked like his home was cozy and his father cared for his son. I was able to narrow this down to a few worlds, but that number was dropping too fast for my liking.

Rosalina's mind-How odd...I'm sure I visited so many worlds like this across the galaxy.

I searched the memories deeper to see his school life and everything to narrow it down to one but came up with... nothing I have ever seen. There were even people in his town that never came after him but were most unpleasant to even be around. Even some children were acting so fiendish to others. Soon I even discovered while his father cared for him, that appears to be to an extent and while it was not because his love ran out, it was because he had interests that indirectly put his son in danger or at risk. The night before he came here, he simply left his son home alone at night while he partied with other most likely drunk adults next door.

Rosalina's mind-Did he even consider while some adults might be ok when sober, they can be dangerous and unpredictable while drunk?

How was he sure that someone from the party or even not from the party could break in, leaving his son defenseless and at the mercy of the home invader? There was no way to be sure and should have left no choice, but to stay home and make sure nothing happens to him. It's a basic responsibility of a parent of any species.

Rosalina's mind-(Y/N) has no hate in his heart for his father, but that doesn't excuse this act of recklessness.

I searched for more memories related to this and rather if (Y/N) realizes it or not, it wasn't the first time this has happened. He even brought (Y/N) into a garage full of his friends while they were drinking and smoking... and he was only a baby! at the time.

Rosalina's mind-Unbelievable! What is going through that man's head?!

When i found another memory of a time his father was celebrating a promotion of a job while (Y/N) was 2, I saw him flirt with 7 other women while drunk and have reason to believe since he walked into his room while his son was in a playpen with his toys and other co-workers of his father watching him, he had intercourse... with 3 women in total throughout that day behind their backs.

Rosalina's mind-That's it.

I just stopped searching his mind and while I did also see good memories in there, his father was what one would call a "party boy" at times. I personally could never trust an adult like that with a child if it meant putting a child at risk, even for a moment, because a moment is all it takes. It's not like I could find his world anyway, nor do I have a clear coconscious to. When I looked at the sleeping boy and my heart did ache for him, but sometimes the best thing to do isn't exactly the nicest. I would rip a child away from his father that loves him, but just doesn't keep him safe at all times.

Rosalina's mind-I know you won't understand now, but... it's safer for you here.

(Timeskip)

((Y/N)'s POV)

I woke up to having a blanket over me while I was lying in a bed now then I looked out the window to see the planet earth and this room was pretty nice. I remembered I was with Rosalina then soon the door opened, and I saw Rosalina peek in before she opened the door all the way to come in and she had food with her.

<figure></figure><figure></figure>

I loved mashed potatoes like that, and I could smell it from here and it just smelled as good as it looked as she sat on the side of the small bed I was on.

Rosalina-Well hello sleepy head. Did you sleep well?~

(Y/N)-Fine.

I couldn't look away from the food and my mouth was watering inside then my stomach growled which made her giggle and me kinda embarrassed. She just got a bite ready then held it up to me, but I could feel myself, but when my arms left the blanket and I sat up, it just felt so cold in the room. When she saw me shiver a little, she just slowly pushed me back down and covered me in the warm blanket again.

Rosalina-You weren't out for that long. We still need time to warm up the room for you... Now say ahh.

She held the bite up to me again, but closer this time and I just took the bite, and it was still warm. It was also just so good. When I finished, she took me out of bed, and it did feel warmer this time. She took me to the bathroom then started to get a bath going and even added bubbles before she took off my clothes to put me inside the water then poured some on my head. I was told to play with the bubbles while she cleaned me and that was hard to do while she washed my hair. When she was finally done with my hair and body, she only dried off her hands.

Rosalina-Stay here and be good for me. I'll get some clothes ready for you.

(Rosalina's POV)

I have plenty experience of taking care of star children, so a human wasn't that different, and I even had some help. As we speak, silk clothing was being made for him. When I checked on the progress, I saw everything was done except for the shorts, but they shouldn't be too long. He should be having fun in his bath right now, but I stayed close by in case he gets soap in his eyes or something. I just went back to my room and curled up with a good book in bed. This role I have taken on reminded me more of my mother before she passed then my heart fluttered a little. A smile curved on my face when I heard a bit of splashing coming from the bathroom, but I stayed here to let him play in peace. He probably doesn't think i'm here, so he's being himself like all beings do when they are alone.

Rosalina's mind-How adorable... I wonder how long it will take him to think of me as a mother.~
