-The Mysterious Mansion-

-October 2-

-2:34 P.M.-

I, Sora R. Destiny, have finally decided to check out this mansion that Riku told me about. It has been less than a month since my last case, at the mansion that belonged to Mr. Ansem T. Wise, who had been murdered. Since the mystery has been solved, I haven't recieved any new letters or calls for any new mysteries to solve. So- since I didn't have anything else to do- I decided to go to this mansion and ask the owner if I could check it out.

The man that won this mansion is named Luigi. Riku told me that he is an Italian man that seems to always wear green. He also has a brother named Mario, who wears red. That was how I was told to identify them.

So, I packed everything I thought that I might need for the trip. Almost forgot my valor form shoes. I decided that I would bring at least one of my forms, just in case.

Would have brought final form, but it's at the cleaners. The one downside of final form: dry clean only.

Anyway, once everything was packed, I departed for a place called the 'Mushroom Kingdom'.

-5:42 P.M.-

Have reached the Mushroom Kingdom- and got lost in some dark woods.

Also, have decided that this world is very strange.

During trying to find Luigi's mansion, I met someone else in green. It seems that green is a popular color to wear here. Should have agreed with Fauna in her choice of color when those fairies were creating my new outfit... Anyway, he explained that his name is Link. He is sixteen, and is also lost. Not very helpful. He says that he was looking for a friend of his, wandering through a place he called the 'Lost Woods' and has been for years now... Guess he isn't very good with directions. We are now looking for a way out.

-8:23 P.M.-

Have been wandering woods for what feels like hours and hours, even though my watch- yes, I have a watch- says that it's a little after 8:20. Finally, we reached a clearing- and there was the mansion! Finally... And we found Luigi! YES! Link and I talked to him, and he had only just arrived. He said his brother, Mario, was supposed to meet him there, but didn't seem to have arrived yet, and showed us the map that led him here. It had a rainbow on it, as if it were a cutesy, happy place to be.

It was far from it.

Lightning crashed all around the intimidating place. Luigi began to shake all over as we approached it. Looking around, I noticed that there were a couple of crows perched on a limb, watching us. We reached the door, and the short, Italian man opened the door. I placed my hand on his shoulder, and nodded to him.

"Hello?" Luigi called, shining his flashlight into the room.

Link and I followed him into the dark mansion.
