A/N: Sadly, I own neither of these franchises. This is a purely fan-made work, which I'm sure you all know.


Luigi should have known the flyer was a fraud. Heck, he hadn't even entered a mansion contest in the first place! Mario offered to go check it out, sure, but he hadn't come back yet. And it's been two days! What if they were robbers who had come up with a scheme to mug his brother? Or serial killers, off to kill him? Oh, Luigi couldn't even bear to think about it. Poor, poor Mario. His brother could be dead, and it would be all his fault! What would he tell Peach? Even worse, what would he tell Mama? He just had to find Mario, fast! Luigi looked out of his window. It was already getting dark. He should take a flashlight, just to be safe. He stuffed it in his pocket, and headed out the door.

"Don't you worry, Mario. Luigi's on his way!"


Sora looked up curiously at the short little man in the white lab coat in front of him.

"You took quite the tumble in your space rocket, eh lad?"

Sora nodded a bit, but he realized that made his head hurt and looked around at Donald and Goofy, who both looked a little jumbled from the difficult ride in the Gummy Ship. It would have been a fine ride to Mother Gothel's Tower, their destination, but Donald felt it was necessary to try to rip the steering wheel out of Sora's hands. Again. Who had the keyblade anyway between them? Him or Donald?

"Where are we? And who are you?" Sora asked the little old man, who chuckled and helped Sora stand.

"I'm Professor , and you are in the outskirts of Mushroom Kingdom." answered, adjusting his glasses.

"Gawrsh, Mushroom Kingdom? Is that anywhere near Mother Gothel's? " Goofy asked, fixing his hat and reaching for his shield.

"Mother Gothel's? I doubt it. The only place near here is this mysterious mansion that appeared a few days ago. These strange creatures keep live there, and I've been trying to study them. I think they're like ghosts, only they have an odd little heart printed on them. I've always been too afraid to get a closer look at them. However," said, looking at the trio. "You three seem like such a lively bunch, I'll make you a deal. If you wouldn't mind to capture them and bring them to me to examine them, I'll try to fix up your flying machine!"

"The Gummy Ship is Broken?!" Quacked out Donald.

shook his head. "I'm afraid so. Absolutely totaled."


A/N: So that's about it for Chapter One. I hope you all like it, and don't be shy to review. They're always appreciated!
