After Elvin fixed the gears, he started to talk about the Ghost Portrificationizer but then was cut off by piano music. Mario looked curious, wondering where it was coming from. Luigi perked up and thought, 'Melody? Is that possible? She turned back into a painting and Elvin sold it!' Elvin saw Luigi's face and knew that the younger Manfredi brother was thinking about Melody.

The ghost researcher merely shook his head to let Luigi know that it wasn't Melody. Mario looked confused to this, knowing that he was missing something. Luigi did nothing but when they were pixelated in, his heart was breaking.

Luigi sighed as he went into their mission, he went into the library. Mario was with him, looking around. 'This is some strange library,' he thought. Mario walked to the piano as the strong Poltergeist appeared. Mario paled as Luigi screamed in horror.

"What is that?!" Mario blurted out, scared.

"Mario, move!" Luigi shouted, pushing Mario out of the way.

The two brothers landed on the ground, dodging the books being thrown at them. Mario looked at Luigi, whom had immediately got to his feet. Mario was surprised by Luigi's quick feet and bravery. 'He doesn't have to be me,' Mario thought, proud. 'He's himself.'

Mario saw more books being thrown at his baby brother and warned, "Luigi, look out!"

Luigi replied, "Saw it!"

With that said, Luigi ducked the books, narrowly missing them. Mario breathed a sigh of relief. After defeating the strong Poltergeist, the brothers went back into the mansion to get the Dark-Light Device to see illusions. What really surprised them was there was a Boo causing it. After capturing the Boo, his Dual Scream started to ring. Mario checked the image and saw that Elvin was calling.

Mario answered, "Hello?"

Elvin stated, "Criminy! What in tarnation was a Boo doing here in the valley?! Good thing you two had the Dark-Light Device on you, or you've been in real trouble!"

Luigi replied, "No kidding. Mind pixelating us outta here?"

Elvin responded, "Sure, hold on, boys!"

With that, Elvin hung up and pixelated the brothers back to the Bunker. Elvin knew that Boos in a group would be too powerful. Luigi shivered from the last time Elvin told him (and Violet) that. Upon thinking of Violet, Luigi looked sad. He was really worried about Violet. Mario placed his hand on Luigi's shoulder, in a reassuring way. Luigi looked over at Mario, sniffling.

Mario stated, "She'll be fine. I'll call Peach."

Luigi wiped his eyes and replied, "O - okay..."

Mario picked up the DS, calling Peach. He talked to her as Luigi was cleaning up the spider webs in the mansion as their next mission.

Peach saw that the two of them were in a different place and asked, "Where are you two?"

Mario sighed sadly as he answered, "Luigi and I are in Evershade Valley. We are helping Elvin with a ghost problem."

Peach instantly got worried and questioned, "Have the portrait ghosts escaped again?!"

Mario answered, "No, they have been sold..." When he saw Peach's look, he added, "Long story."

Peach's face softened as she stated, "Just please be careful, Mario. Both of you."

Mario nodded and replied, "We will." He paused as he added, "I love you, Peach."

Peach blushed as she responded, "I love you too, Mario."

After cleaning the spider webs, Mario hung up on Peach. Luigi had overheard them and sighed sadly, his heart wasn't in this. He was really worried about Violet. The two were back in the Bunker as Elvin placed his hand on top of Luigi's reassuringly.

Elvin commented, "She's okay, Luigi. She would want you to do this."

Luigi looked at Elvin with tears in his eyes and asked, "You think so?"

Elvin answered, "Yes, as a matter of fact, I do."

It was easy to tell that after that Luigi battled and worked a bit light-hearted, as if he was doing it all for Violet. Luigi even took down the spider that was possessed by a ghost on his own and then got a piece of the Dark Moon, much to Mario's surprise. Luigi pumped his fists in victory as he kissed the heavens above after the spiders went back to their home. Mario laughed at the sight as Luigi was a bit thrown off but he smiled anyhow. He was still worried about Violet but hearing Mario cheering for him really helped.

Luigi commented to Elvin while they were in the Bunker, "I hope this helps, Professor."

Elvin stated, "It will, my boy. It will."

After cleaning off the Dark Moon piece, more of the fog lifted. Elvin was certainly puzzled by the dark energy surrounding the pieces, as if this all was on purpose. Mario looked up at him and saw his face.

Mario asked, even though it was more of a statement, "You think this is all on purpose, don't you?"

Elvin nodded and answered, "Its the only explanation. I just want to know who and why."

Luigi stated, "As do I and I wonder if this has anything to do with Violet's disappearance."

Elvin was about to reply but then the computer went off, showing that another mansion was now in range.

Elvin commented, "Looks like you two can now go to the Haunted Towers."

Luigi gulped as he shivered from fear. He hated this whole ghost thing but what else could he do? Elvin needed his and his brother's help.

Mario asked him, "You okay, Weegie?"

Luigi answered, "Yeah, just terrified, Malleo."

"Yeah, me too," Mario confessed. "But we have to stick together. Okay?"

"Of course." Luigi responded.

With that, the two of them headed out to the Haunted Towers and started to work on the first mission there: to fix the plumbing system. 'Simple enough since I am a plumber,' Luigi thought as he started to climb. Luigi and Mario finally got to the Water Supply on the roof after capturing many ghosts.

The two of them finally got the water to flow again and that's when they were pixelated back to the Bunker. Luigi sighed as he gathered in some oxygen. Mario looked over at him as he walked away from him. Mario watched him, in worry.

"Luigi..." He whispered.

Luigi felt like swearing every word in the book and hurting himself until he bleed badly. The green clad ghost hunter thought, 'I can't believe I wasn't there to protect her from whatever it was. This feels like this was all my fault. I might as well be the one to kidnap her. Oh Vi...' With much sadness in his heart, Luigi went to his next mission along with Mario. This mission was to get into the tree to get to the top.

The only thing stopping him was a pinwheel gate. However, the Hiders in the area took off the pinwheels and hid them all around the mansion. After grabbing each and every one, the brothers were being pixelated back to the Bunker. Luigi figured that at a good and steady pace, he could get this done easily. At least, that was his hope. He wanted to search to find his beloved girlfriend.

Luigi whispered, while being pixelated, "Violet...wherever you are... I hope you are safe and sound..."
