Hullo again. Thank you to my reviewers Unfortunately I still don't own the characters. Humph. Oh well, any way in this chapter you wont see Peach and Mario, it is mainly about Luigi and Daisy.

Chapter 5: Into the Night.

A pair of eyes followed Luigi all the way from the warp pipe to the Pipe House. A wave if excitement swept through the body of which the eyes belonged. Now was the time to strike.

Luigi himself had entered the quiet and dark Pipe House and putting his had on the hat stand he walked straight into the living room. He was so hurt mentally that he wanted nothing more then to sit in total darkness. All he could hear as he sat in the dark was the sound of his own breathing. The silence was so welcome and peaceful that Luigi started to drift off into a daydream. The moment however was short lived when he was knocked back into reality by a knock at the door. Getting up to answer it, Luigi wondered who it could possibly be. Everyone was at Peach's party.

Upon answering the door, he found nothing. Stepping out onto the doorstep Luigi glanced around, but he was met with a feeling of desertion. No one was around. But then why should they be? It's getting late and everyone else will probably be staying at Peach's. Turning round to walk back into the house he could have sworn he heard heavy breathing. Shaking his head he continued into the house. Feeling a bit uneasy Luigi locked the door behind him. Walking back into the living room he went to turn the lamp on, suddenly he didn't feel brave enough to sit in the dark anymore. As he turned on the lamp, his eyes came across the photo. Smiling wryly he put the photo on its face.

Being home alone and in the dark was no making Luigi paranoid. He kept replaying that heavy breathing sound in his head, his paranoia got worse. He kept looking around sharply at the windows every time he thought he saw something. His breathing became ragged and he felt a cold chill sweep through his body. Thinking he was just being silly he decided to retire to bed.

After he had got changed into his pyjamas and put out the candle Luigi settled down into bed. But that heavy breathing noise, just wouldn't go away. Pulling the covers over his head he tried to block it out. He was now shaking with fright. He now wished he were back at the party surrounded by people he knew and liked. Luigi almost shrieked out aloud when he heard what sounded like footsteps walking across the landing. What would Mario do? He thought to himself. Well he would play the hero and go see whom it was he answered himself. Slapping himself hard he realised he knew the answer deep down. Then Daisy's voice came into his head.

'To make him special he must be unique, brave - a real hero'

Pulling up all the courage he could find Luigi pulled off his covers and tiptoes to his door. Creaking it open ever so slightly he peered out onto the landing. Nothing. Walking out onto the landing, he balled his hands up into fists and tried to appear tough. The problem was his legs didn't stop shaking and he felt like he was going to faint. Now standing at the top of the stairs he strained his ear's to see if he could here anything. To his dismay he heard the heavy breathing again and his stomach lurched. It was now or never. Taking a small step forward, he felt something put their hands on his back. Almost freaking out, he kept his composure and made to turn around. Before he could see who it was they gave him an almighty shove and down the stairs he fell.

Not aware that Mario and Peach had been hunting high and low in the castle for her Daisy was out of the castle walls. She wasn't even aware of the time, she was happy in the company of her handsome new beau, Waluigi. They had been walking for ages and spoke of many things. When they stopped walking they came to rest on a bench in the middle of the mushroom park. The night sky over Peach's castle was beautiful, the stars were all twinkling brightly and the moon was as big as she'd ever seen it. Neither of them spoke for a while, to busy gazing at the dazzling horizon in front of them. Daisy took time to stop looking at the sky and to look at Waluigi. She started to feel guilty. All this time she'd known him, she had always thought badly of him. Sure he hadn't exactly been the model human being but what if that was people like hers fault? She had to admit she was very prejudice when she first met him. Wario had turned up at her castle demanding treasure and he had brought Waluigi with him. She was so repulsed by his looks that she disliked him ever since that moment. Tears dwelled in her eyes. No wonder he was mean and bitter if that's how people had seen him. Now she understood the phrase beauty is in the eye of the beholder. After thinking a while, she took Waluigi's hand. He snapped out of his trance and looked back at her.

'I'm sorry' She said. Waluigi looked at her questioningly.

'Sorry?' He said, cringing inwardly at all the politeness.

'I'm sorry about judging you; the very first time I met you. You not as bad as I first assumed, for that I'm sorry, because you're better than that' Waluigi's heart twinge a bit, there was an unknown feeling in his heart. He didn't like it. Daisy had spoken to him with so much sincerity that it touched him. No one had ever spoken to him with such niceness before.

'That's ok Daisy, you're here now, that's all that matters' He smiled at her. It felt weird to smile nicely instead of wickedly.

Wario had watched the whole encounter with Daisy through the crystal ball and was positively disgusted by it. He was so disgusted that he immediately ran to the bathroom and threw up. His brother was not impressive any more; he was sickening. Evil dictators did not go lusting after women with feelings; they simply had women as slaves. It was the done thing.

After recovering from the shock of seeing his brother canoodling, he decided to pester the genie for treasure.
