Luigi was enjoying a nice summer day outside picking up the daisies which were popping up around the warp pipes. While he was picking flowers, he began to reminisce about the old days when his brother Mario and him, had to save Princess Toadstool as a team, because as of late, it's been his brother who has got all the praising with the new Super Mario games which have come out in ! The Mushroom Castle doors flung open with Mario running out and calling for Luigi in a joyous mood.
"Luigi, Luigi! Where are you?"
"I'm over here Mario" said Luigi while waving to his brother. "What are you so happy about?" Luigi asked.
"Princess Toadstool has just sanctioned another Nintendo game for me called, "Mario and The Search For The Lost Star" Mario responded.
Luigi's eyes began to grow wide in shock and was breathing in and out harder, while his fists were balling up in rage at the thought of another game for the all-too-perfect plumber brother of his.
"No way!" Luigi yelled. "This isn't fair, how come you get all the glory in the games and I'm left fixing things in the castle?"
Mario didn't know what had come over his brother; usually when he had news of a new game featuring himself, Luigi would tell him, "Wow, really?" and then head down a warp pipe somewhere.
Mario asked his brother, "You're not happy for me Luigi? I thought YOU of all people would be happiest for me."
Luigi was looking ready to blow his green hat clear off his head like a volcano blowing its top.
"Momamia!" said Luigi, slapping his forehead. "Don't you see? Don't you get it? You're the one out on all the adventures, you're the one who gets the respect and I'm sick of being the one who's always in your shadow. No more!"
Luigi took a white plumber's glove from his right overall pocket and whipped it right across his brother's face with a whack that echoed all around the Mushroom Kingdom.
"I challenge you to a duel Mario, and the duel will be: whoever is the first to stomp 10 goombas in the least amount of time!"
Mario was rubbing his red cheek while staring at Luigi, not believing that his own brother had smacked him with a glove, least of all, challenging him to a goomba stomping duel when everyone in the Mushroom Kingdom knows that he is the best goomba-stomper around.
'Alright, I accept your challenge, we shall also make a wager that if I win the duel, then you must quit your sissy blubbering about not being in any games or being in my shadow nonsense."
"And if I win?" asked Luigi.
"If you win, then I'll let you take part in any games or adventures I do in the future, course, not like anyone will want to buy games with you in them or have someone like you go on an adventure for that matter. Ha-ha! Deal?" asked Mario, holding out his hand with a smirk on his face.
Luigi had been standing there with his arms crossed while tapping his foot, impatiently staring up at the sky. He looked down at the hand, thought for a second, then accepted the deal, shaking his brother's hand with a look of confidence on his face and a fiery passion burning in his eyes to win this game.
With that, the plumber brothers ran onwards the closest warp pipe and jumped in, ready to test each other's skill at goomba stomping.
