Hi everyone! This story is the result of finishing Gamecube Luigi's Mansion in two afternoons while feeling extra creative at the same time haha. This is my first story ever. Reviews are appreciated. Enjoy!
...
Luigi flicked the rim of his hat upwards so the cap rested nicely on the top of his head. It was a quiet afternoon in Luigi's house and he was spending some time relaxing in the back-yard reminiscing about the past. It's been a little over a year since the haunted mansion incident and to be honest, he missed the excitement. Sure, he was scared out of his mind and probably a step away from a heart attack whenever a boss ghost would show up, but after it was all over and Mario was safe, he realized the experience gave him a thrill. After the ordeal, Luigi made sure to keep in touch with Professor E. Gadd; the professor came over every now and then to have him test new inventions. Working with the prof. always kept things interesting.
RING RING RING!
Luigi reached into his left pocket. Speaking of which, that was the prof. calling him now. Luigi picked up the phone.
"Hello. It's Luigi"
"Luigi my boy, I have some urgent distressing news. The Boos! I don't have the conclusion to how, but they have escaped. Every last one of them gone including King Boo!"
"Mama Mia! What are we going to do?!"
"Now don't lose heart Luigi. Report to the lab as soon as possible. We need to hook you up with the Poltergust 5000 and start tracking them as soon as possible. Who knows what kind of mayhem they are already up to."
"Will do professor. I'll be over as soon as I can."
"Good lad. See you soon. E. Gadd out."
Luigi sighed out loud. He probably just jinxed himself; you get what you wish for. He just hoped it would be simpler than last time, he wasn't ready to see Bowser's head on backwards again. He felt a shiver go through his body; that image still gave him nightmares. Luigi walked back into his house, ate a quick sandwich, and then packed a bag full of snacks for both him and E. Gadd. It would come in handy because they were probably going to be working on a plan all night. Luigi opened the door to leave and stepped outside. What he didn't expect was to bump into someone on his door step and what he definitely didn't expect was the said person happened to be-
"Bowser?!" Dang the universe must have it out for him today.
"You do realize Mario lives down the street, right?"
"Uh yeah, but I'm not here to fight him today." Bowser seemed off...
"Uh Bowser are you feeling ok?"
"I feel great!"
"Uhm then if you don't mind me asking, what brings you here?"
A toothy grin spread across his face.
"REVENGE!"
Suddenly Bowser's head lifted off revealing none other than King Boo. Luigi jumped back in surprise. The green hero didn't have the legendary vacuum with him, he was in trouble. Bowser's head began floating around shooting ice while the king had a smug look on his face. The front door froze to his left, a vase became an icicle to his right. Luigi was dodging the best he could, but alas the ice inevitably hit him and he became frozen in a block of ice. As hard as he struggled, Luigi could not escape the ice block. This would have been much easier if he had the heat of the vacuum on his back. He felt his limbs slowly go numb with cold, his mind beginning to go numb with it. If he didn't get out of there now, Luigi was sure he was going to die there. With the last of his strength he managed to finally break free. He took a wobbly step out of the pile of ice shards before passing out on the lawn. The last thing he heard was King Boo cackling and monologuing something about "foolish humans" before everything went black.
King Boo looked at the unconscious plumber on the ground. This was too easy! The element of surprise had served him well. He had been planning this since the day he had been imprisoned in that awful painting. A year really gives someone time to think. Oh, so many ways to make Luigi pay and then he could finish the job by finally trapping him in a painting. Now that's fine art. King Boo gave off a signature Boo laugh then proceeded to pick up the limp form of Luigi and flew off with him to the new location of a rebuilt haunted mansion.
Professor E. Gadd checked his watch. His young green friend should have arrived a while ago. Luigi was never known to be late and this situation was urgent no less. E. Gadd had a bad feeling about this and each passing minute without Luigi turning up was fueling his uneasiness. The professor shuffled through his lab coat pockets until he found what he was looking for...a Gameboy horror. He decided that he would give Luigi a call to see what was keeping him. The line rang and rang, but Luigi didn't pick up. The professor felt his stomach drop, something was wrong. Luigi always picked up the phone; even that one time at three in the morning he still picked up. E. Gadd let out a nervous sigh. He strategically decided to wait ten minutes before trying to call Luigi again. Those ten minutes went by agonizingly slow. Countless scenarios went through his head on what could be happening right now, almost none of them were good. Finally, the ten minutes were up and the professor pressed the call button. Unfortunately, he came up with the same result. If Luigi had not answered by now he was positive that the lad had been met with some sort of predicament. Deciding on bringing the Poltergust 5000 with him, E. Gadd set out for Luigi's house. He hoped to himself that his hunch was wrong and that Luigi would still be in one piece.
