Norman Whitesmith is back again to bring you chapter two of the story that nobody cares about! Enjoy and please leave a review (I'm looking at you Jacob. You know who you are) and criticize my work so I can improve! Without further ado, Chapter two.

Chapter 2: Wrong Assumption

Daisy always enjoyed taking walks, whether it be the long ones through a forest or a short one across the beaches of her home kingdom Sarassaland. She loved how the breezes would always whip through her hair and lightly tussle it like a loving father to his son. Every type of weather fascinated Daisy as each brought new experiences and livened up her every day. As a child, Daisy never was allowed outside other than the occasional business trips and the small court yard that seemed to close in on her further every day, which was annoying to a whole new level. Daisy always begged to be let to go on walks, but was always declined until her 16th birthday where her parents reluctantly let her out on a walk under heavy guard. Daisy absolutely loved it and found that she had a passion for travel and went on walks nearly every day.

Daisy was walking this time because she had a meeting to attend to at Princess Peach's castle and she decided to walk instead of ride in the royal limo. It wasn't too long of a distance since the family stayed in the outskirts of the kingdom for the night, so Daisy was allowed to walk by herself this time, as the crime rate was almost zero. She was enjoying her walk like always when she suddenly heard a peculiar sound. It was a high pitched wail coming from behind a bush on the side of the road. Daisy of course wasn't sure she heard it at first, but after waiting a second, the wailing sounded again. It sounded like it was coming from a baby of sorts. Daisy quickly tracked down which bush it was coming from behind and peered over the top. The sound was coming from a human six month old baby. This was confusing for many reasons, the top reasons being that collectively there were less than twenty humans in the entire known world, the second being that typically a human's birth would be wide celebrated, as they are rare enough and humans went on to do great things in the world.

Daisy involuntarily gasped which caught the attention of the small child, whose head instantly whipped to the side and caught a glimpse of Daisy. A flash of what only could be described as fear passed the baby's face as it tried to get away, but getting caught in the mud that covered the swampy ground of the small clearing and letting out another pitiful wail as it accidentally got a small cut from a twig hidden under the surface of the mud. The baby was completely naked, a boy Daisy saw, and was clearly not going to make it on his own much longer. Daisy quickly made her way over to the small thing and picked him up, not even caring how much mud she was getting all over her royal outfit. The baby struggled ferociously for a child of his age and was babbling furiously in gibberish that seemed somewhat close to English, as if he were trying to say something. Finally the baby settled down and gave up and just stared up at Daisy, which Daisy began to inspect him from head to toe.

First off, how did this child get abandoned in the first place? There were no obvious defects with him, as twisted as it would sound for someone to abandon their kid because of a defect. His sparkling blue eyes that were surprisingly bright for his age was scanning Daisy's face, conveying almost a type of intelligence. He had a head full of nice and thick dark ebony brown hair that turned up to four downy soft cowlicks on his forehead. The child wasn't wearing any clothing or a diaper and now his bottom half from the hips down was covered in mud. This child looked familiar even though she was sure she never saw him in her life. Daisy noticed the small scratch that was oozing out a small amount of blood. Even if there wasn't too much blood coming out, it would be a good idea to get him to town and cleaned up as fast as possible.

"Hey little guy!" Daisy said in a high pitched voice, that the baby slightly cringed at before she decided to talk in her regular voice, "Let's get you to town and fixed up, you adorable thing! I'll take care of you!"

Was it just her or did the baby roll his eyes?

Luigi was sleeping comfortably wrapped up in his blankets when he woke up. Something was definitely wrong as he noticed the leaf shaped shadows dappling his green blanket. Also, his green blanket wasn't this thin, as too much light was shining through. What was going on? Luigi tried to move, but his body didn't want to respond too well. Luigi finally kicked his legs enough and he felt himself slide forward in his blanket and slip out an opening, the cold ground freezing him to the core as he slid out. Luigi stared up at trees that were above him. Where was he? What happened? Luigi attempted to sit up, but found that he couldn't and that his body refused to obey. Luigi tried to move his arm, but found that it was barely responding and shaking profusely. Luigi brought his hand into view, but found himself staring at a small and chubby hand instead of his own. Luigi tried to move his fingers, but found the small hand in his view doing the same. That was his hand. Luigi let out a small shriek that was too high pitched to be normal. He noticed a small mud puddle nearby and desperately tried to scrabble himself towards it to see his reflection.

As Luigi slowly made his way to the nearby puddle, he remembered everything that had happened beforehand. The potion must have done this, Luigi realized. But what exactly did it do? Luigi soon got his answer when he propped himself up slightly with his now chubby arms and hands and looked at his reflection. A baby's face stared back at him. Now if anybody in the world were in this situation, it would be very confusing and terrifying, and Luigi was no exception to this. Luigi felt his lower lip twitch as his eyes filled up with tears, and he involuntarily began to cry very loudly. All of the air left Luigi's lungs as he let out his cry and he very quickly needed to stop and "refill". As soon as he began his second cry, he heard a gasp from behind him that caused him to whip his head around to see the source. It was Daisy, the woman he had a crush on and wanted to hopefully date in the future. Crud.

'She can't see me like this! Not to mention I'm completely in the nude!' Luigi thought to himself as he tried desperately to crawl through the mud puddle to escape, though unfortunately his chubby legs weren't going to get him very far as he couldn't even crawl yet. He desperately tried to wiggle away, but it was to no avail as he scratched his leg on a twig hidden in the mud and let out a small wail before continuing on. But it was all fruitless as Daisy quickly walked over and picked him up and cradled him in her arms. Luigi tried desperately to wiggle free and say "Daisy, it's me! Luigi!", but all that came out of Luigi's mouth was nonsense babbling and it seemed to be amusing the princess slightly. Luigi knew there was no escape pretty soon and decided to calm down and wait and see what happened. Daisy was clearly looking him over and Luigi watched the thoughtfulness wash over her face. She was incredibly beautiful.

"Hey little guy!" said Daisy in a voice so high pitched that it made him flinch, before an apologetic look crossed her face and she continued in her normal voice, much to Luigi's relief, "Let's get you to town and fixed up, you adorable thing! I'll take care of you!"

Luigi rolled his eyes. This was probably the weirdest thing that ever happened to him. He had to get back to Iam and fast before he gets put in the orphanage or something.

"Here you go, princess!" said a cheery clerk at the store as he handed Daisy a diaper and some wipes, as well as a tiny Band-Aid, "I'm glad you decided to pick up this poor fellow. It's been years since I've seen a human child! There's a changing room in the back that you can use to clean him up. Also, how far did you say you walked with him?"

"About two miles."

"Well that's a record! I'm surprised the kid didn't pee on you, considering how young he is!"

Was it just Daisy or did the baby's face flush red for a second?

"Well thank you sir for your kindness," said Daisy as she held the child in one arm and pulled out a small coin purse with her free hand, "How much do I owe you?"

"Considering that this was for such a noble cause, not a thing!" said the clerk as he guided Daisy to the small room to clean up the child.

Daisy thanked the clerk, got to the room, and closed the door and held up the package of wipes, ready to clean the baby that lay in front of her or get really dirty trying. Luigi couldn't help but stare up at the princess helplessly as she looked down at him with determination painting her face. Daisy grabbed out a wipe and started gently scrubbing every square inch of Luigi clean. Luigi let out a small shriek from the coldness of the wipe, but Daisy only responded to the child's noise with a smile as she continued to wipe down the poor thing. Pretty soon, Luigi was squeaky clean and in a crisp new diaper. This was probably the most embarrassing thing that had ever happened to him, but at least nobody knew it was him. Daisy almost laughed at the seemingly mortified expression on the baby's face before scooping him up and taking her leave from the store.

The town clock chimed noon as the two walked through Toad Town and the regular bustle of the town went on as normal. Normal, that is, until one toad saw Daisy holding the infant and got everyone else's attention. Soon all streets and homes were deserted as every toad in a five mile radius crowded around to see the human child that stared back at them with bright blue eyes. Luigi felt over crowded as he never got this much attention before and felt the tears build up in his eyes before letting out an ear-splitting cry. Daisy quickly shooed everyone away politely and brought Luigi up to her shoulder and began patting him on the back. Luigi smiled as he almost immediately stopped crying and felt tiredness closing in on him. He tried to resist sleep, which didn't go unnoticed by Daisy who giggled a little at the tired infant trying to stay awake, but ultimately it was a losing battle as Luigi snoozed off in her arms, making cooing noises as he slept.

Daisy gave a small smile at the infant that was slumped over in her arms, but then she noticed something a bit odd. There was a small birthmark in the shape of a star on the infant's back. But then Daisy realized that it wasn't good to have an infant slumped over in their sleep without their head raised, so she quickly shuffled the baby to her shoulder and couldn't help but smile even more when the infant instinctively snuggled closer to her bosom for warmth in his sleep. Daisy very carefully and steadily made her way to the castle, careful not to disturb the small child resting on her. He was so cute and seemed almost familiar, but Daisy just couldn't place it if he was reminding her of anyone. Daisy arrived at the castle after five minutes and breathed a small sigh of relief that she didn't wake the child, but that changed in five milliseconds as Toadsworth ran out and yelled at her for being thirty minutes late. Toadsworth immediately realized his mistake when he noticed the infant in Daisy's arms that stirred and began to cry loudly.

Baby or not, Luigi hated being woken from his naps. After much coaxing from both Toadsworth and Daisy, Luigi finally calmed down and stared at them silently.

"Where in the blazes did you find a human child?" asked Toadsworth, putting together that Daisy must have traveled slow for the little guy's sake and it wasn't entirely her fault, "Oh, and before I forget, your parents decided to leave and let you experience your first meeting alone. They expect a full comprehensive report of what happened when you get on the plane back home."

"Oh, they did?" asked Daisy, surprised that her over protective parents decided to sit this meeting out, "Well anyways, I found this little fellow naked on the side of the road. It appears he's been abandoned for whatever sick reason that a parent wouldn't want to take care of their child. And don't worry about telling my parents, I'll let them know."

"Very well, Daisy. But it confounds me that someone would even abandon such a sweet and adorable little guy like this. That isn't like anybody in this kingdom."

"I know, but it happened and I'm going to take care of him now!"

Daisy then went inside the castle carrying the infant that seemed to be grabbing at her brooch. In actuality, Luigi's now smooth gums were bothering him and the brooch looked soothing to chew on and it would help. Daisy noticed the tiny and chubby hand trying to grab the brooch and removed it and gave it to the infant. Luigi happily grabbed it and started chewing on it, relieved at how much the cold was relieving the small amount of pain in his mouth.

"Oh my stars, is that what I think it is?" asked a familiar voice as Princess Peach stepped into view and beheld Daisy covered in mud while holding human offspring that was gnawing on her brooch, "Who's the father?"

Daisy blushed a deep red for a second, which caused Luigi to let out a small chortle, before recomposing herself and answering.

"I have no idea. I found the poor little tyke abandoned on the side of the road naked and covered in mud. I picked him up and decided to bring him here so I can attend the meeting before I head home with him and decide what to do next."

"Well, we do have about a hour before the meeting, so want to have a little fun with the baby?"

"That sounds absolutely perfect!"

The princesses were so busy chatting like school girls that they didn't notice Luigi shaking his head and trying desperately to say no. Hanging out with them would probably start with more beauty products than humanly healthy, and end in the emergency room. Unfortunately for Luigi, he didn't have a choice as the two whisked him away to a room where they were going to have some "fun". When the door opened, Luigi saw the bright pink nursery walls and realized that this must have been where the princess herself grew up. Luigi looked on amazed at all the toys that were now giant to him and suddenly looked a lot more appealing.

"I think to start off, we need to give this little guy some clothing!" stated Peach as she went over to the closet off to the side.

"I can't agree more!" said Daisy as she set Luigi on top of the plush carpet floor, before noticing that he had problems sitting up and laid him stomach down.

Peach began rummaging through the closet a bit before pulling out a pink dress.

"Well, I couldn't find any boy's clothing, but I do have this that will fit him. It's still better than him sitting there in nothing but a diaper. Besides, he's a baby so he shouldn't care."

But in fact, Luigi did care. He cared a lot. Full humiliation set in when he sat in the puffed up pink dress on the ground while having a sufficient pouting expression on his face. If he did manage to change back, there will be blood-shed for this. That was, until Peach waved a bright blue pacifier in front of Luigi's face to which he latched on eagerly and began sucking away at it.

"Wow, he almost looked angry there until you gave him that pacifier." Daisy commented as she watched the baby wiggle forward on the ground towards some type of toy off in the far distance for him.

"Well, I'm sure they call it a 'pacifier' for a reason. He's such a quiet little guy, though."

"He was babbling pretty furiously when I first picked him up and he tried to squirm out of my arms, but then he gave up and went limp and stayed quiet other than the times he cried."

"Does he have a name yet?"

"He probably did with whoever abandoned him, but not now. I'll probably give him a name when I bring him back to Sarassaland. For now we could probably call him 'boy' or something."

"Doesn't that sound like a dog?"

"He's a baby, so he probably doesn't care."

Luigi heard this from his spot that was about halfway to his destination of a ball and shot a dirty look at Daisy.

"Awww!" said Peach as she almost melted with adorable overload, "Look at how adorable he is trying to give you a death glare! It's almost as if he could understand what we are saying! Luigi better look out, because this little guy might just take his title for the death glare when he grows up!"

Luigi felt his stomach growl and knew that the princesses heard it when they were staring at him.

Both princesses were almost tripping over themselves as they rushed over to Luigi and bombarded him with "are you hungry?" and other rhetorical questions that were very obviously "yes".

"Well, I better go down to the kitchen and get something for this little guy to eat! Also, Mario is here, so I better tell him about the child. I bet he would want to hold him for a bit, so I'll send him up! Take care of 'boy'," said Peach as she rushed out the door to accommodate the infant.

Daisy just watched Luigi in silence as he finally made it over to the ball he wanted and began to hug it and suck on it. As noisy and messy and expensive as babies could be, they were truly a gift, so why would anybody abandon him to die? He clearly wasn't going to make it on his own for much longer and he was also the most adorable thing she had ever seen, so why? Daisy's thoughts were cut short as Peach entered the room holding a can of pea baby food and a spoon.

"Okay, I got some stuff! Unfortunately, I have to prepare some for, so I have to leave. You can play with him up here until the meeting and Mario is going to be up in a few minutes, so he's going to help. Just try to feed this to him without sticking the spoon too far into his mouth."

Peach very quickly pulled out a feeding chair from the wall and put it next to Daisy before shoving the can and spoon into her hand and promptly exiting. Daisy pulled Luigi away from his ball and stuck him in the feeding chair. Luigi absolutely hated peas, adult or baby and turned his head to the side and made a "humph" sound.

"No thank you, I really hate peas," Luigi babbled out, but to no avail as Daisy bumped the spoon against the side of his face. She was going to make him eat it, if it meant shoving it down his throat. But Luigi was one heck of a fighter.

Mario didn't know what to think when he heard that Daisy found an abandoned human baby boy on the side of the road. He already had his own problems as Luigi disappeared from their house earlier on in the morning. Mario was close to reporting it, but something stopped him. Almost as if something was telling him that Luigi was nearby and if he waited that he would find him. Mario decided to wait a few days before calling in Luigi, praying that he would turn up before then. Mario needed something to take his mind off his missing twin brother. As Mario walked up the stairs towards the nursery, he suddenly heard a cacophony of noises from a baby's angry shrieking, to an exasperated "Why won't you eat your peas? Please, just one bite."

'Oh God, what am I getting into?' thought Mario as he entered the room.

The scene looked about as horrible as it sounded outside, with peas splattered all over Daisy with a small drip of some on the ceiling falling down on her head, however that got up there. The baby looked the worse by far with peas making his dark brown hair that was a few shades darker than Mario's, stand on end, and peas were covering the pink dress he was wearing, not to mention that the peas were spread up and down the infant's arms. Mario could have sworn he saw a look of fear and surprise pass the infant's face as he looked at him.

Luigi looked up at his older twin brother, not quite sure if twin applied anymore. Mario came over to him with a huge smile on his face.

"Say hello to your Uncle Mario!" he said, as he extended a finger out for Luigi to grab. Luigi grabbed it, leaving some of the peas on it, surprised at how truly tiny his hand was in comparison to Mario's index finger. Luigi looked directly into Mario's eyes, which had always gave away emotion if you knew how to read it, and saw that Mario was suspicious of something, and was scanning Luigi's face and looking for secrets. That quickly melted away as Mario began laughing a hearty laugh.

"You seriously put him in a pink dress?" Mario asked as tears started streaming down his face from how hard he was laughing.

"Yeah, it was better than him just sitting there in his diaper and being cold." replied Daisy defensively as she tried to give the infant a spoon of peas, only for it to be slapped away with the infant's free hand. The peas made a good splatter on the wall and a more than audible groan from Daisy.

"He just won't eat his peas even though he's clearly hungry."

Mario picked up Luigi from the chair carefully.

"I'll tell you what. I'll give the kid a bath, while you clean up the room. Then when you're done cleaning, make a bottle of milk up, as I'm sure he'll eat that. Alright?"

"Alright, I'll start cleaning." said Daisy begrudgingly as she searched for the infant friendly cleaning wipes.

Mario sat down on the ground and put Luigi in his lap facing away from him and began to pull off the pink pea covered dress, careful not to harm the baby. About when the dress was halfway up, exposing his back, Mario seemed to pause for a second before completing the removal of the dress. Mario held Luigi close to him in one arm as he began to get up and head for the door, but of course popping the blue pacifier in Luigi's mouth. As Mario was exiting the room with Luigi, he turned his head back and said to Daisy, "If you're ever feeding him something other than milk again, try blending up mushrooms with peaches. I'm sure he'll like that."

Luigi's heart almost skipped a beat. That was the one odd food combination that he loved the most, but nobody else seemed to know about. Mario then silently closed the door behind him and began to walk down the hall. As he walked, he looked down at the infant in the arms and gave a little smile.

"Hi, Luigi," he said.

And that was the next chapter! I hope you liked it! I guess the wizard wasn't really lying when she said "adored by all", but as the description for this says, Luigi got more than he was bargaining for. Also, Luigi's mind is still intact after changing, it's just he gained a few new "instincts" (and by instincts, I mean detrimental habits that will probably bite him in the butt later.). Also, guest reviewer TheDarkenedLuigi requested a story for me to write, and I'll do it. Just give me time to think of the details before I start writing it. I had to look up what a six month old could do in order to write this accurately, regardless of having to take care of my little siblings a lot awhile ago. There's about an 11 year age difference between me and my sister and a 13 year age difference between me and my brother, so I had to take care of them a lot. And that meant being smeared in baby food and all the like as my little siblings didn't like me and they still don't like me. Darn kids. There were times that I just put my little brother in my little sister's clothing because I was too lazy to find his clothes in the giant pile in their room. Poor Luigi. Starlow is going to be making another entrance soon in the next chapter, so that's going to be fun to write. Also, happy brother's day! That's not a real holiday, but it is in the promotion that Nintendo sent me, so why not! Please criticize my work so I can improve, and I enjoy hearing speculation and other things of the like, so please feel free to say something. I have nothing else to say, so until next time, Norm out. And don't forget to never take potions from strange wizards. You have no idea how many times that nugget of advice has saved my hide.
