"So, it's over?" Mario said to a Luigi, buried in 3 ft thick duvet cover on his bed. Luigi nodded slowly underneath.

It has been 5 days since the disastrous day when Waluigi and Daisy became lovers. And Luigi hasn't been to school since. He wants nothing to do with life. No, he has not become emo, but he was still very depressed and heartbroken. Mario also had to take some pain in this, as his soccer team was without a player, with Toad on a trip, and Luigi was his only chance at replacing. It was after these 5 days Luigi braved to go in, even with a shadow of gloom on his conscience. What made Luigi and even Mario twisted was Peach and Daisy talking together. Not only were they talking, they were getting along! Luigi couldn't look at Daisy, but Mario had to know why.

"Hey, Peach, your getting along with Daisy well… Why?"

"She's on the cheerleading team, and she ADORES me!" Peach giggled and continued to talk to Daisy

"But I thought… that you… and Daisy… cheerleading… Nyeah!" Mario quickly got confused

"It's OK; she joined the team since of Waluigi. I am still the head, she never wanted to become it, and we are best buds!" Peach hugged Daisy and continued a 100 mph chat. Mario stood there in a daze.

As soon as his mind cleared, he walked off in distress. His distress carried on until the end of school, but he was distracted by a Wario. Wario seemed to be on the Prune Train from Panama holding a picture of Waluigi and sighing.

"Whatsamatta?" Mario approached Wario

"It's Waluigi, the clutz is all lovey dovey because of the new broad. I need a tight compadre!" Wario moaned

"Well, why has Waluigi left you? He was with Twila and yet you didn't seem to mind"

"TWILA!? So he didn't have all them Ham Rodeos…"

"That's because if anyone says ham you are in a trance"

"…sorry, I was thinking of ham"

"What did you do without him then?"

"Well, today we are supposed to bake!"

"You bake?"

"I mean… peanut brittle" Wario then revved then engine and sped off. 24 hours later he was in the same place. Mario decided to give talking to Wario another shot.

"Hey Wario, no Waluigi again?" Mario asked

"It was… horrible!" Wario said, in the fetal position on the widened saddle

"What was?"

"He brought… the girl… home… I had to wear my anti-cootie goggles!"

"What harm did that do?"

"Well… nothin' really… they just stayed in his room and then walked right out again… it was horrible!"

"Wait, this isn't the same Wario I have seen"

"The same Wario? I have always been Wario! At least that's what granny writes on my underwear!"

"Maybe you have to stand up to Waluigi to gain his respect"

"Respect… yeah! He has to respect me!"

"Yup, and maybe he might hang around with you more"

"Yeah! He will!"

"So… what now…"

"…TO PIZZA HUT!" Wario sped off of the Prune Train.

The next day, Wario was sitting down at lunch with his tradition mountain of food which he has named 'Mount Evereat' and Mario decided to again go back to Wario.

"Hey Wario, did you take my advice"

"Yeah! We're best buds now! I am phenomenal! Like that guy from NASA said I was!"

"Yeah… but he only called you that because he thought you were the 10th planet in the solar system"

"But still… anyway, the girl got all peeved, I was gonna throw eggs and Cher CD's at her when she passed, but I decided not too, might make Waluigi mad"

"Wait, she was peeved?"

"Yeah! About Waluigi hanging out with me, she wanted him all to herself, it was weird"

Wait! That was it! Maybe if Daisy dumped Waluigi, Luigi would feel better, and if Luigi felt better, the soccer team can re-assemble and fight to be in the Strikers League! Mario thought about this long and hard, normally he was the peace keeper and the guy who stood out of things, but the whole school counted on him and his soccer team to perform in the ultimate match, so he had to do this. And he might get to punch Wario mid-way as well. But he couldn't! That was the problem. If he did it, it would be against what he would normally do, and then Waluigi would be too depressed to play! Mario was in a dilemma of gigantic proportions.
