Prologue
I had known Luigi, Peach and Mario for as long as I'd lived. Peach was beautiful and perfect, Mario was lively and playful, teasing Luigi. Of course there was me too. Confident, sarcastic, strong willed but as fluffy as Peach deep inside. I wish people would bother to uncover my fluffy side a bit more often. I can't forget Luigi though.
As children, he was kind, sensitive, caring and forever blushing. When we were in our teens, Peach and Mario were going out and if Luigi touched me at all, he would start stuttering and apologizing. He always made me laugh and Mario always embarrassed him. I remember when Luigi and Mario didn't visit for a year, how Peach didn't understand when they told her that her mother had died, then when her father had died…
How Mum and Dad protected me and how Dad always looked Luigi up and down when he came over…
But now Luigi was dead, gone. I was on the run, I could hear them, the henchmen outside. They would be inside then I would be taken to headquarters.
Never to see the light of day again.
Unknown POV
They're at the palace now. They'll be back soon enough. With them and there's only one that I want. Four for the dungeon, one for the room and one for me.
For me alone.
That's the prologue. Reviews bring a sparkle to my grey winter life!
