Summary: Luigi was always by Mario whenever Princess Peach gets kidnapped. But in a latest kidnapping, Luigi starts to smell a plot. A plot which would change the Mushroom Kingdom forever…
Chapter One
It was Independence Day, the day the Mushroom Kingdom was formed thousands of years ago. There was celebration throughout the day with much drinking, football, and fun. The banquet was about to start and the Mario Bros stood at each side of the podium, where Peach stood to wait for the people to quiet down. The football matches went to halftime and every Toad in attendance sat at the foldable chairs in front of the stage. As Peach started to read the speech written for the event, Mario looked around. He could see Bowser in the airship above.
'Here we go. Bowser has arrived.' Mario thought. Luigi was as oblivious as ever. Mario stretched, and a second after that, a giant claw snatched Peach right from the podium.
"Mario!" She cried as the claw took her into the airship and flew away. Mario looked at Luigi, who was shocked.
"C'mon, bro. Let's-a go!" He said, starting for the east, in the direction of Bowser's land. After his initial shock wore off, Luigi's eyes narrowed.
"Okay.. I'll be right there…" Luigi said distantly. Something was not right. If he could remember correctly, this was Peach's 50th kidnapping. This should not be happening, unless…. Luigi raced into the castle and went to the basement. He opened the safe, which revealed a warp whistle. Luigi took the warp whistle and played a quick tune. A familiar tornado picked up Luigi and took him all the way to Bowser's castle. Luigi snuck inside, avoiding the Koopa guards around the place. As he ventured deeper inside, he started to hear strange noises…like someone was moaning with pleasure…. Luigi tracked the source of the sound and found Bowser and Peach. Peach was bound and nude, making the moaning noises, and Bowser was circling her. Luigi dropped his jaw in shock and disbelief. He can clearly see that Peach was enjoying herself, Bowser too.
'Oh God! Is this why Peach is always getting kidnapped? That is not only disgusting, but scandalous too! What would the Mushroom Kingdom think?' Luigi thought. Everything he thought of or believed in was shattered in that one scene he has just witnessed.
'Mario is going to be pissed…' Luigi thought. Taking out his iPhone (the Mario Bros visit their parents in Brooklyn from time to time), Luigi recorded the scene inside that room, making sure he isn't caught. After the video finishes recording, now it was time to wait. Mario would be arriving soon, so Luigi wandered the castle, avoiding guards in the process. Finally, an alarm sounded, signaling Mario's arrival. Bowser's troops were everywhere, heading to the gates. Luigi headed to the large pool of lava where he and Mario always dumped Bowser in.
'Mario should be arriving just about now.' Luigi thought. On cue, Bowser was backing away from Mario, blasting fireballs at him as Luigi's brother leaped over Bowser and landed on the death skulls button. Luigi recorded this event as well. After Bowser sank in the lava and Mario freed Peach, the yellow and blue Toads came to escort Princess Peach away, who was back in her normal dress. Mario hung back.
"I just have to take care of something first before I exit." Mario said to the Toads when they questioned him. After the Toads and Peach were out of earshot, Luigi heard something unexpected.
"Bowser, the coast is clear." Mario said. Bowser, who fallen in the lava, emerged.
"I swear this lava is getting colder each time." He said with a distinct British accent. Luigi, bewildered, listened in. The Bowser he knew spoke in his gruff barks and roars of the Koopa language, but in English!?
"I have your money here." Mario said, pulling out a large bag of gold coins.
"Thank you very much. Are you sure you aren't going to take Peach to a psychiatrist? Her Stockholm Syndrome seems to get stronger and stronger by the month." Bowser said.
"I don't think so. Would you really give up gold just because Peach wants a little excitement now and then and I wouldn't look like some old, fat plumber?" Mario asked.
"Good point." Bowser said. The two shook hands (or rather hand to claw) and Mario left. Luigi was shocked beyond belief. It was a setup the whole time! Luigi finally understood the reason for the kidnappings. And he was furious! His own brother, keeping secrets from him! Luigi used the Warp Whistle back to Toadstool Castle and after he arrived, he put the Warp Whistle back in the safe and walked to his suite within the castle. Luigi sat down on the bed, reflecting on Mario's actions long ago.
"I shouldn't be surprised." He said grimly. "Mario. He's not the best brother, but this….Something's up with him. He abused Donkey Kong in Brooklyn before he escaped and made off with Pauline. And then Mario tried to kill Diddy Kong when the baby monkey went to save his father. Then Mario cheated on Pauline for Peach when we arrived at the Mushroom Kingdom. Then he cheated on Peach by having a one night stand with Daisy when he went to Sarasaland to save her."
Luigi grew angrier by the minute as he continued with his soliloquy.
"And then he went to Peach and cheated on her back for Pauline! His relationships are so complicated and unfaithful! But it's not just that… Mario seems to hate me! When I saved him from Bowser, did he give thanks!? No! When I won that tennis tournament, Mario just clapped and stomped on my foot! He ruined my day! When Bowser turned hundreds of Toads into bricks, Mario just destroyed them with remorse. He is killing the Mushroom Kingdom's own people! And when he went to Yoshi's Island, he let Yoshi fall to his death just to get a few inches more off his jump to reach that steep ledge. I now know what I must do.
"Mario must die!"
