Amor et Fortitudo
Chapter 1
The Beginning
It was just another day, another beautiful summer day in the Mushroom Kingdom
Explosions and cries pierced the air as Bowser was trying to kidnap the princess again
Peach's Castle, Throne Room
In the middle of the room the towering koopa stood tall bearing an evil grin
Peach was behind Daisy who met Bowsers evil gaze with fierce glare
Between both Daisy and Bowser two brothers stood hands aglow
One in red stood ready his hand ablaze, eyes determined, and a smile across his face
Another in green with lightning arcing across his fingers, his worried face accompanied by nervous stare
Mario and Luigi were ready to stop Bowser, preparing to meet his roars with thunder and fire
"She's coming with me you damn plumbers" Bowser roared pointing at Peach
"Not gonna happen" Mario answered
"Go ahead and try" Luigi shouted
Without another word Bowser blew fireballs at the brothers
The duo responded in kind
Fireballs collided with thunder and flame, explosions rocked the castle
Dust obscured the brothers and Bowser stood waiting for their next attack
The heroes shot though the dust and charged the towering koopa
Mario jumped up fist blazing hoping to finish Bowser with one punch
Luigi charged, his arm arcing with pure energy, he was ready to help strike the final blow
Bowser was more than ready to meet their attack, he let the dark power he was holding back flow over him
Before the brother's blows could land Bowser morphed in front of their eyes
He grew three times his normal size; his shell turned a deep aqua blue, and his eyes turned bright crimson red
Giga Bowser had awoken
Bowser simply flicked Mario aside, sending him straight though a wall, he then raised his foot preparing to crush the younger plumber
Luigi was barely able to scramble out of the way just as Bowser brought his foot down shattering the floor beneath him
Luigi trembled as he gazed upon Bowsers new ungodly form and felt the fear begin to overtake him, but stopped it as he took a glance at Peach and Daisy
Daisy inched back slowly, completely unnerved by Bowsers new form, Peach was fixed on the shattered wall where Mario lay
Luigi knew he had to make a stand, he had to protect the one he cared about the most, Daisy
Luigi called up every scrap of energy he could, his skin flashed and glowed a shining emerald green with lightning arcing off his body and striking the floor
The pain was immense he could feel every part of his body burn under the enormous power
But he endured it and with a gesture shot a giant green thunder bolt at Bowser before collapsing
Bowser crossed his arms ready to meet the attack head on
A massive explosion engulfed the room showering it with dust and debris
Luigi smiled as he brought himself to a kneel, watching the dust waiting to see Bowser fall, but when it settled he froze in terror
Giga Bowser had vanished but regular Bowser stood in the center of a crater covered in dust but completely unharmed
Bowser laughed as he walked over to the helpless plumber
"That was your famous Green Thunder? Pathetic" he chuckled kicking Luigi to the base of the throne
Luigi coughed blood as he struggled to get to his feet
Bowser stared down at the staggering brother and laughed, he grabbed Luigi then glared at Daisy
"Your next, you damn Flower Princess"
Daisy backed away shaken by the threat
Suddenly Bowser yelped in pain as lightning flooded his body, Luigi broke from his grasp, landing between the Princess and the towering koopa
"Still not done yet greenie? give up and I'll make it quick for both of you" Bowser growled
"I'll die before I let you hurt her you cruel bastard" Luigi yelled defiantly
"Luigi..." Daisy whispered
Luigi jumped and landed a kick square in Bowser's jaw knocking the behemoth back a few steps
"So be it..." Bowser snarled moving towards the insolent plumber
Luigi launched tides of lightning bolts at Bowser, but they did little to stop the lumbering giant
Almost exhausted Luigi gathered every bit of energy he had left, his arm became a flash of lightning
With nothing left he charged Bowser, banking everything on one last punch
The move was predictable, Luigi could only watch in horror as Bowser disappeared mere moments before the punch could land
Bowser smiled deviously as he stepped behind the desperate plumber and slashed, shreds of cloth and drops of red flew everywhere
Then with a swift kick he sent Luigi back to the base of the throne
Luigi got to his feet but struggled to stay standing, he clutched his arm clearly in a lot of pain
Bowser approached claws drawn, prepared to finish the green clad hero
"LUIGI!" Daisy cried
Luigi stepped between Bowser and Daisy ready to protect her to the end
Peach looked over to the shattered wall where Mario was and screamed
"MARIO!"
Bowser smirked and remarked
"Goodbye Green Stash"
Luigi closed his eyes waiting for death to follow, it never came
Mario shot out from the wall his arm ablaze
And with a single fiery upper cut he sent Bowser though the roof and far into the distance
"Damn you Mario!" Bowser roared before disappearing
"So long eh Bowser" Mario called with a smile
Peach completely relieved ran over to her red clad hero giving him a loving hug before turning her eyes to the Luigi
Luigi collapsed as the room began to blur
"Luigi!" Daisy cried catching him
"Daisy..." he replied weakly before blacking out
Daisy held him for a moment, then felt her hand become wet and then something pooling on her dress
"Daisy... wait turn him over" Peach ordered noticing the red spots on her dress
"Oh my god..." Daisy whimpered, there were deep gashes that welled with blood
"Those are bad" Mario bit distressed
"Their deep, this is not good" Peach stated examining the wounds "I have to operate, Mario help me get him to one of the rooms"
Peach tore a section of her dress and bandaged the gashes
"That's only going to buy us a few minutes, Mario grab him"
They both picked up Luigi and carried him off
And all Daisy could do was follow and pray for the best
For the record This chapter and the chapter after it are as of now not connected, There was to be an intervening chapter with Mario and Peach operating on Luigi but was side tracked and ultimately dumped for Luigi and Daisy: Amor Et Fortitudo sorry for any confusion- Luigi Legends
