Piplup's Mansion: Plundering Misfortune
By Yoshizilla-Rhedosaurus
Yoshizilla-Rhedosaurus: Piplup's Mansion was a nice, fun story, and given that the inspiration for it had a new sequel that just recently got released, I figured that I take the time to jump right into it. If you've seen some of my more known fanfics, you would know that I've been alluding to this sequel in subtle ways, though I won't say that this is directly after Piplup's Mansion on account that several things happen in between this and that. So with that said, enjoy, ladies and gentlemen!
Piplup was in his quaint little home that was in the western half of Seaside Hill's Lost Palace race course, being on the cliff facing the southern direction, with the starting line a mile towards the east. Having had plenty of adventures since his advent to the haunted mansion, Piplup had collected enough ghosts to make Professor Elvin Gadd a happy collector.
"You know, I gotta say, I do love my Poltergust 3000," Piplup commented as he rubbed the red colored vacuum with his right, light blue colored flipper, smiling as he narrowed his eyes, nodding his head. "It sucks up anything and everything without holding back... just the kind of thing I need with me at all times."
As Piplup continued commenting on how wonderful his Poltergust 3000 was, Dry Bowser dropped by Piplup's house, knocking on his door. Piplup got off his personal blue colored sofa, opening the door to see Dry Bowser standing in front of him.
"Oh hey, Bowser. What's up?" Piplup asked as he rubbed the back of his head.
Dry Bowser folded his skeletal arms together. "Well, Professor E. Gadd asked me to go tell you that he requests your presence."
Piplup blinked as he touched his two flippers together. "Gosh, really? It's been, like, four months since I last talked to him..." He shrugged as he nodded his head, opening his eyes. "All right. If it's an audience he wants, then it's an audience he'll get!"
Dry Bowser nodded as he snapped his fingers, opening a warp portal that showed off the Boo Woods, which led directly into it. Grabbing his Poltergust 3000, Piplup charged into the warp portal as he waved goodbye to Dry Bowser, who simply nodded his head in response as Piplup dashed in, with Dry Bowser snapping his fingers again, making the warp portal disappear.
Toadette panted as she ran up to Dry Bowser, trying to catch her breath as she looked up, disappointed. "Aww! Did I miss saying goodbye to him?"
Dry Bowser bent down as he patted Toadette on the back with his right skeletal hand. "Oh, don't worry. He'll be back soon, knowing him."
Toadette sniffled as she shook her arms. "I hope so... I wanted to give him a good luck present..." She whimpered as she began to softly cry, closing her eyes as Dry Bowser comforted her.
