So now, I proudly present, The Boo and the Thief, chapter one. Spook's story.
-------------------------------------------------------------
It was a thunder-y night as always in Forever Forrest, the piranha plants hid under ground and Fuzzies hid in the trees. King Boo and Lady Bow, two royal boos that used to rule all the boos together, have recently been fighting for control of all boos. Some went with King Boo while others went with Lady Bow. King Boo wanted Mario and Luigi dead while Lady Bow wanted to assist Mario and Luigi.
Since the two were constantly fighting, King boo left the mansion with half the boos. The King created a mansion on the other side of Forever Forrest to lure Mario and Luigi. An emerald green boo was left behind in Lady bows mansion. The emerald boo, was Lady Bows and King boos son, although he got treated poorly by Lady Bow and was praised by King Boo.
A mansion in Twilight Town, and the brown boo village were the only places not in the war between royalty.
Thunder boomed outside the walls of Lady Bows Mansion, home of half the boos. "ATTENTION! Spook Boovian report to the third floor to Lady Bow, repeat, Spook Boovian report to the third floor to Lady Bow" came the voice of a Boo from inside the mansion. The emerald green boo frowned, fangs poking out from his lips. This was not his day at all. Then again every day wasn't his day ever since King Boo left.
The boo floated off to the third floor, towards Lady Bow's 'room'. He went in through the wall not bothering to knock or open the door. "You called? Lady Bow?" he said in a bored voice.
Out from the shadows came a light-green boo, holding a pink-purple fan and with two flowers in her hair. Lady Bow, currently in her regular mood, began to speak to the other emerald boo. "Yes, Spook. We have a problem here that has to be solved" Lady Bow said as she set down her fan on a table.
The boo, revealed as Spook, gulped only slightly. Spook feared nothing, not the over weight plumber, not that blue giant Tubba Blubba who ate boos, and especially not that vacuum that swallowed his friend Hide-And-Go-Boo. Only one thing sent shivers down this boo's 'spine', Lady Bow. Spook could stand up easily to King Boo, but never to Lady Bow.
"The problem is…" Lady Bow continued "… that accursed King Boo, your father, is using the half of our people to fight Mario and his brother. Mario is a 'friend' of mine, so King Boo must be dealt with now." Lady Bow said floating as if she were pacing.
"Everything is about this Murphy-o, Murphy-o this, Murphy-o that" Spook growled. He was so very tired of listening to boos talk about Mario over and over and over. Lady Bow frowned "Is there a problem with him?" she asked, almost as if daring Spook to continue.
"Yes. Martian-o is an enemy to us boos; he only befriended you to get to the others. I heard from Boors that Mario has done damage in the mansion in Twilight Town. He-" Spook said and was going to continue but Lady Bow's fan smacked him across the face, making him spin once in mid-air.
"ENOUGH!" the female boo commanded "MARIO IS OUR ALLY! IS THAT CLEAR!" Lady Bow snapped, smacking Spook again with the fan.
Spook growled at the royal boo, glaring a death glare that would paralyze a person with fear, and kill an army of Puni. Spook was about to say something but- "SILENCE!" Lady Bow roared "you are to go and punish King Boo for all he has done, now go" the royal boo said, her voice returning back to normal. And with one last smack of her fan, she disappeared.
Spook growled some very colorful words before floating away outside Bow's mansion to go to King boo's mansion. The quickest way was to go past brown boo village and Tubba Blubbas wind mill, then take a right back into Forever Forrest, then go strait forward to King Boo's mansion.
Although, Spook was hungry, very hungry. So in stead of directly going to King Boo he would stop at the dining room once he would arrive.
Spook silently floated out of the mansion, into Forever Forrest, and into the 'waste land' to go past Blubbas mill. He made his way through the brown boo village and towards Blubbas mill. Although someone blocked the way back to Forever Forrest, the way to King Boo's mansion.
"Hey, you" said a brown boo who floated in front of Spook, blocking his way. "Move it kid, Im heading to King Boo and no dirt covered boo is gonna stop me" Spook growled as he tried to get past the boo. "Tubba Blubba is over there, y'know, the boo eater who is supposed to be invincible only to Mario" the brown boo said.
Spook scoffed at the mentioning of Mario and Tubba Blubba "I could fight better than that over weight plumber AND that weak oversized bath tub put together. Now MOVE IT!" Spook growled, this time he shoved the brown boo out of the way, the boo flying right into a hay stack and floated off.
"There goes another one" the brown boo muttered as he pulled himself out of the hay and watched his fellow boo leave.
Spook floated for what seemed like hours, growing more and more bored. He also grew more and more hungry. To entertain himself he tried to hum a song, although this didn't work out since his fangs kept poking out of his lips.
Until finally he found the gate that re-entered to Forever Forrest. "Finally" Spook mumbled as he made his way to the gate. He stopped, something wasn't right. "Food" he heard someone say. Spook spun around, right there was someone 6 times taller than he was. Blue bodied, and with a major apatite, Tubba Blubba.
"Food" Tubba mumbled again, stareing right at Spook with beady black eyes. In Tubba's mind, Spook was a floating chicken with Barbeque sauce and on a silver platter. "What are you stareing at Tubby" Spook growled at the larger one. "Food" Tubba mumbled again, walking right towards Spook. Spook backed off a few Inches "What? I-I-Im F-Food? No way, no no no no no back off fatty." Spook said as he slowly backed off… right into the gate.
"Food" Tubba said for the fourth or fifth time, licking his lips as he got closer… closer… closer. Spook needed a plan, fast, or he would be devoured.
'CHOMP!' Blubba swallowed Spook whole like a snake eats an egg. Spook landed inside Blubbas huge stomach, in a pile of stomach acids and some digested Shroom Fry. The acids did nothing, considering he was a boo, but he still felt some pain. Spook said nothing, only frown and stay there.
After a few minutes he finally said "Why didn't I think of this thirty minutes ago?" and turned invisible, floating strait out of Blubbas stomach. Blubba, of course, didn't like this at all and started to chase down Spook like a cat after a mouse.
"Smart, tick off tubby enough to get him to splat me, and THEN eat me" Spook said sarcastically as he floated as fast as he could away from Blubba. Then blue giant was gaining fast enough that he would catch his prey in half a minute.
Then it hit him, literally, for Tubba Blubba tripped on a rock, the rock smacking the emerald boo square on the face. As Tubba Blubba lifted himself up, Spook floated behind him and bit him right in the neck.
Although, this let loose something dangerous, blood dripped from Blubbas wound and into Spook's mouth. And Spook liked it, a lot. Using his fangs he bit deeper into Blubba, sucking out the blood like a bat. He savored its metalical flavor with every gulp, his eyes gleamed with delight.
Tubba Blubba screeched in pain as he tried to shake the blood-sucking boo off. But he failed. Finally Tubba fell to the floor from the blood loss, limp like a rag doll.
Spook licked his fangs and lips for the last drops of blood, he wasn't hungry any more. "That was good" Spook snickered, many boos came from the village. All of them were saying things like 'HE KILLED BLUBBA!' and 'WHOA HE DID IT!' and even 'GUMMY GOOMBAS! HE KILLED HIM!'.
Spook turned to face the other boos, a splatter of blood on his right fang. Some boos gasped, some screamed, some snickered, and some cried. "Told ya so" Spook muttered before turning around again and floating off into Forever Forrest.
After some floating around, Spook managed to find King Boos mansion. Thunder roared behind the mansion, a small hut was in front of it. Possibly that nutty Professor E. Gadd who made the Poltergust 3000 that ate his friend Hide-And-Go-Boo. " Why don't they ever destroy that professor?" Spook wondered as he started to float to the mansion's entrance.
Spook floated in without knocking or ringing the bell, inside were… boo, a lot of boo in different colors although most were white. They didn't seem to notice Spook as he wondered the corridors of the mansion. There were ghosts too, yellow, purple, blue, red, and green. There were some ghosts that looked more like people, some of them said hello as Spook passed while others ignored him and some said to go away.
Spook wandered to the third floor, expecting to find King Boo but instead there were more ghosts and boo. The one that interested Spook was a painter, drawing ghouls and chests and anything else.
Spook finally checked the basement, there was an interesting door. Curious, Spook entered and after a small twisting corridor, entered the room with…
King Boo, floating in the other end of the room while stareing at a moving picture of Mario, a ruby crown on his head. "It's true what they say, it takes mind to see good art." King Boo mumbled. "however, I despise that vacuum cleaner that SLUUUURP and SWUUUUP my boos. I fear not that accursed cleaning device, for I am King boo. NOW YOU SHALL FEEL THE PAIN, LUIGI!" King boo roared, turning around swiftly but calming down instantly.
"wait… you are not Luigi… Spook? What in Big Boo's name are you doing here? SPEAK!" King boo said at his son. "Lady Bow said to deal with you. However, father, I will not" Spook replied. "I have tricked Lady Bow" Spook continued "Into gaining my trust, and then, we will attack when she least expects it" Spook added.
King Boo grinned an insane grin "Well done, I see you have my intelligence son" King Boo said with a slight cackle. A sapphire boo burst into the room, stopping at King Boos… feet? "your highness" the boo began "We received news from the brown boo village. Apparently Tubba Blubba has been killed, m'lord" the boo said bowing before King Boo.
King boo's eyes widened slightly "who killed him?" the King asked the bowing boo. "I did" Spook said, causing the Sapphire boo and the King's eyes to triple in size. That was when the royal boo noticed the blood slightly dripping from Spook's fang. "You bit him to death?" the king asked. "I sucked the blood out of him" Spook replied, causing the boo and King Boo to recoil.
"Whoa" was all the Sapphire boo could manage to say, although King Boo grinned like a mad man. "So you killed one of the threats to us, well done son. You may stay in this mansion and write back to Lady Bow, only to keep her un suspicious" King boo said with that in sane grin.
Spook nodded before floating away, although a slight smirk tugged at the corner of his lips. He exited the room, only to get knocked out of the air by a blur and a red boo who gave chase to the blur. "WATCH IT!" Spook yelled at the two, although neither stopped. Spook regained air and floated after the two, he would make them suffer for that.
