Luigi tossed and turned on the couch, his heart pounding in his chest. He couldn't sleep at all, he was too worried about Violet and Mario. The green clad ghost hunter was having so many nightmares about Violet becoming a ghosts in the hands of the ghosts of the mansion. Elvin watched Luigi from his bedroom and felt really bad for him. When the youngest Manfredi twin returned alone, Elvin knew that Violet was trapped somewhere in the mansion.
When Elvin was emptying the Poltergust 3000, Melody piped up.
Melody commented, "He's heart broken."
Elvin was startled that she had spoken to him but eventually calmed down.
He questioned, "Luigi, you mean?"
She seemed to have nodded and explained, "He and I sang together, a song called "A Thousand Years" before he captured me."
Elvin stated, "Oh my...poor Luigi. First his brother and now the love of his life."
Melody replied, "The will is mightier than the soul..."
The ghost researcher was puzzling this sentence for a bit. He couldn't figure out what Melody meant by that, it was as if everything depended on the soul. Elvin puzzled and puzzled until he finally gave in as he started some research on the ghosts of the mansion. That's when he discovered that Boolosus had cursed the mansion since the mansion was built on top of the Boo hideout. Boolosus cursed the people inside and the mansion.
Elvin read out aloud, "It is said that Boolosus will not release the people and mansion until the will is destroyed."
Luigi heard Elvin and questioned, breaking his vow, "What will?"
Elvin pushed up his glasses and explained, "Couldn't sleep either, eh my boy? Well, something Melody told me nagged at me and it turns out that Boolosus cursed the mansion and the people inside of it. They then turned into miserable people. It is said here that Nana might know of the will."
Luigi responded, "Then I'll find Nana and ask her."
Elvin replied, "Good luck, Luigi."
With that, Luigi went back into the mansion and went into Area 3, as he stumbled upon GameBoo when he checked the Storage Room. After that, Luigi managed to open Area 3 leading him outside to the Courtyard.
In Nana's Room, the Grabbing Ghosts returned with Violet. Nana turned, rocking in her chair, and she was knitting.
Nana gushed, "You're back, deary!"
Violet smiled as she placed the will down and stated, "You bet I am and there is the will!"
Nana replied, "Finally, the soul shall conquer the will."
Violet questioned, "How do we do this, Nana?"
Nana answered, "That is unclear, sadly. But it is said that the soul will know when." She pushed the will towards Violet and added, "And I think you are the soul we need to burn the will."
Violet took the will in her hands and stated, "I will burn it, you can count on me."
Nana nodded and 'took' Violet's hands into hers. She smiled as she placed Violet on her lap.
She replied, "I always wanted a granddaughter and you defiantly are like one to me."
Back in the Courtyard, Luigi went into the Bottom of the Well. He heard some noises coming from down there so he went to investigate. When Luigi got to the end of the secret passageway, he heard a familiar voice. That's when he saw the Secret Altar and a painting...with Mario in it!
Mario yelled, "Get me out of here!"
Luigi whispered, "Malleo!"
Mario yelled, not hearing Luigi, "Weegie, where are you?!"
Knowing that he couldn't use his green electricity to get pass the lion's head, Luigi got out of the well and back up to the Courtyard after picking up a key. Luigi even found Mario's Letter. Luigi found another Toad, Danny, hiding in a shed. Danny had also seen Mario the same way and ran to hide. Luigi was a bit disappointed that none of the Toads had faith in him but what was he going to do... Anyhow, Luigi entered the Rec Room and saw Biff Atlas.
Luigi punched the punching bags and got Biff's attention. The green clad ghost hunter then captured Biff, getting a bunch of trouble and capturing the Boo: Booregard. Luigi even found a key to open the hallway back to Area 2. As he got water from the kitchen, Luigi went up the stairs from the Rec Room and put out the fire in front of the door. That's when he entered the Tea Room, gaining the Ice Elemental Medal. Getting that made him worry about Violet.
He whispered, "Please be okay, Violet..."
After capturing the Boo: Mr. Boojangles, Luigi continued to press on. Luigi went into the room that was on the right side of another long hallway. That's when he saw Nana...and Violet. His jaw dropped to the ground as he saw Violet in the lap of Nana, smiling! Nana perked up as she pointed at Luigi, who was still stunned.
Nana stated, "There is a soul among us."
Violet turned, saw Luigi, and gasped happily. She got off of Nana's lap and hugged Luigi tightly. Luigi was so stunned that his brain didn't register what was going on until Violet pulled away. She smiled at him.
Violet replied, "It is so good to see you!"
Luigi stammered, "V-Violet?!"
She nodded and before she could react, Luigi's lips crashed onto Violet's as he kissed her passionately. Violet was in shock at first but she eventually relaxed and returned it. The two of them stood there in the middle of Nana's Room, in the midst of a long kiss. Nana smiled at them.
She stated, "Ah, young love..."
