~~~It's A Wonderful Life~~~ (Mario style!!)
Mario and Luigi were returning from their recent Princess rescue, it was Christmas Eve and it was already getting late and they had to be home soon to set up everything for their party the next day, while on their way home to the Mushroom Kingdom, Princess Toadstool was constantly talking about how brave Mario had been, as she always does after she's been rescued.
"Oh Mario! You were fantastic! The way you jumped into the air and delivered the most powerful kick I had ever seen to Bowser's face, you knocked him out cold! He won't be bothering us for a while, not when you're around" Said the Princess sweetly as she latched onto Mario's arm.
"Ahh it was nothin'" Replied Mario, trying to hide his blushing at the same time.
But all the while, Luigi was staring at the ground, his mind wandering.
'Mario, Mario, Mario, that's all she ever talks about, that's all anyone talks about, how brave he was, how strong, how kind, how...well, it goes on, all I did was distract Bowser enough for Mario to get in a few punches before delivering the final blow, I've never been any real use around here, I'm either always in the way or getting into trouble, no one needs me around here.' He said while stuffing his hands into his pockets and looking sorry for himself.
"Hey Luigi, you alright?" Asked Mario, who had been watching him, or really distracting himself from the Princess's constant nattering.
"Yeah, I'm fine" He simply replied, Mario was only half convinced.
"Well, I hope you're in the Christmas spirit when we get back, we've still gotta decorate the castle and get everything ready for tomorrow's festivities."
Luigi brightened up at that, while fighting Bowser he had forgotten it was Christmas Eve, and was looking forward to helping put up decorations..it was the only thing he knew he was good at. He grinned at his brother and picked up his pace and began almost bounding all over the place, the princess giggled at his sudden actions and decided to join in and began running after him. Mario rolled his eyes at his goofy brother.
'He acts like a kid at this time of year, always cheerful and hyper and just basically jumping all over the place, Christmas always gets to him, the magic is always there and he's never afraid to show it.' His face was almost beaming as he watched his brother and the princess practically dance down the street, but it quickly faded and he let out a loud sigh.
"I wish I was like that, being the oldest here, the magic has sort of...worn out on me, I don't get that special feeling every year, I miss that." He said sadly while staring at the ground. "Oh well, Luigi is there for me, he's just full of it, never a dull moment when he's around."
Just as Mario finished that sentence, he felt a tug on his arm.
"Come on bro we've got work to do!!" Said Luigi with a huge smile on his face and trying desperately to drag his brother back to the castle.
"Ok ok I'm coming!!" Yelled Mario who was nearly knocked off his feet by his hyper little brother, but while catching up to him he thought 'See what I mean?'
~
Soon enough they reached the mushroom castle, the princess and Luigi bounded inside leaving the 'forever panting for breath' Mario lagging behind a little, they were immediately greeted by Toad and the mushroom Chancellor who were glad their princess was safe and she started bragging about how brave Mario was when he saved her. Upon hearing the story again, Luigi's smile faded as he remembered what happened, he turned back and could only walk a few steps when his brother came up behind him.
"Hey Luigi where you going? I thought you wanted to help put up the decorations?"
"Yeah I do but.I think I may have dropped a few coins on the road home, I'll just go out and have a look, I won't be too long." Which was the best excuse he could think of, but at least it worked.
"Well alright, but don't be long, there's a lot of preparations to do here."
"I won't." Replied Luigi as he slowly walked out of the castle doors, leaving Mario to ponder.
'I don't get it, whether he's lost a few coins or not, he never passes up the chance to help with Christmas decorations.'
His thoughts were interrupted when Toad grabbed his arm.
"Come on Mario we've got things to do!" He squealed.
Mario looked back at the doors, shook his head and sighed, and then followed his mushroom friend to the castle's Great Hall.
~
Outside in the cold night air, Luigi was sitting under a large tree, arms folded behind his head, leaning against the trunk. He gazed into one of the windows of the mushroom castle, and could see the silhouettes of his brother and friends all having a wonderful time hanging decorations, putting lights on the tree, basically just having fun.
"They seem like their having a good time, they don't need me to ruin their fun." He said sadly, while gazing up at the stars.
"Sometimes.sometimes I just wish I was never here, everybody would be better off without me." A small tear ran down his face as the recent events played through his mind.
'Mario this Mario that, stand back Luigi and let Mario do his job, well done Mario, lets hear it for Mario.etc.'
He had nothing against his brother, he just wished that he'd show his appreciation now and then instead of taking all the credit, and apart from Mario, everyone else just didn't seem to care about him, never appreciated him, never congratulated him, they never even show their concern if something happens to him, because they know Mario will always be there to help him. The more he thought about it, the angrier he became, and the angrier he got, the more he thought nobody needed him, then suddenly, staring at the stars he yelled:
"I wish I was never born!! You hear me? No one needs me around here!"
Then he buried his face in his hands and let his tears fall. But high above him, the star he was gazing at began to twinkle, and something began to form behind Luigi, but he was too lost in his own thoughts and tears to notice, that is until a sweet heavenly voice whispered.'Luigi.'
Upon hearing his name out of nowhere, he jumped up startled and looked around and almost jumped out of his skin at the sight before him, for there stood the most beautiful blue yoshi he had ever seen, It's eyes were large and shone like the moon, it's red spikes seemed to act like mirrors as the moons reflection bounced off of them and its blue smooth skin seemed to glisten in the moonlight and it was surrounded by a mysterious blue aura that slowly faded as it walked towards the plumber.
But as the mysterious yoshi approached Luigi, he started backing away and suddenly got the courage to ask "Wh..who are yo..you?"
"Why Luigi, I, am your guardian angel."
"My guardian angel?" Asked Luigi, who still couldn't really believe what was happening, but decided to accept it.for now, "Well if..if you're an angel then.where are your wings?" All yoshi-angels he had read about and seen pictures of always had a gorgeous set of dazzling white wings, but couldn't understand why this particular one didn't have any.
"As a yoshi of the heavens I must earn my wings by helping people like yourself, but first let me introduce myself, my name is Clara and I have been sent to earth to answer your wish Luigi Mario."
"What!?!? You mean when I wished I was never born?"
"Correct, but I can tell you now that you are more important here than you realise, but if you don't believe me then I can grant your wish and allow you to live in a world where you never existed."
"Sounds good to me." Pouted Luigi as he folded his arms and looked away.
"Very well, close your eyes, and your wish will be granted."
Luigi did as she said and closed his eyes, he then felt a tingling sensation all over his body, it lasted about a minute and then faded, then he heard Clara softly say "Alright Luigi, open your eyes."
