Luigi and Valentina pushed the door open, its rusty hinges creaked from years of neglect. From beyond the opening, they could see that they were on the Mushroom Castle rooftop. The full moon cast a layer of subtle light upon the ground. A cold draft crept inside the little room. The bubbly girl shivered.

"Ohhh… I never realized how freezing it is tonight," Valentina said, wrapping her arms around herself for warmth. Her skin started sprouting goose bumps everywhere. "If I knew it would this cold, I would have gone with some long-sleeve clothes."

"It's not the night that is cold," Luigi explained, while he held onto her to pass on his body heat. "That's because of the many ghosts that are around. Simply them being here would be enough to make the thermometer drop below room temperature." The supernatural chill was starting to get to Luigi as well, as his teeth chattered a little bit.

"Well… I don't wanna stay here for too long, honey… Let's just make this quick, okay?" she begged. Luigi nodded in understanding.

They stepped out from the room and into the outside. Luigi looked up into the sky and saw the swirling ominous cloud hovering above them. In the center, a long funnel opened upwards like an upside-down tornado. And inside it, forks of white lightning shot across the gaping tunnel.

Luigi looked away from the funnel, its presence making his stomach turn. Instead, he turned his eyes to the scenery. There was some potted plants and flowers that lined up the edge of the roof, each only 10 feet apart from one another. There was a greenhouse in a far corner, and on the other side were some marble statues. Some were a couple of notable Toads, others were princes and princesses from the Mushroom Kingdom's past. And then there was one that looked a lot like…

"MARIO!" Luigi yelled in horror.

Valentina saw him run to his "stony-faced" sibling and sprinted after the distraught green Mario Brother. They stopped just in front of the portly plumber. Luigi's eyes were full of tears.

"Oh Mario! Speak to me, bro!" he exclaimed, while vigorously shaking the statue as though it'll bring his brother to life. The piece of stone didn't move at all. "Oh… Poor Mario… why him of all people…"

Luigi sobbed and dropped to the floor on his knees. Valentina tried comforting him by hugging his middle. Her warm body felt relieving to him. But didn't held on long as she backed away, clutched her sides and gasped in pain.

"Oh no you don't… you aren't going to take over me," she grunted, as her vast bosom jumped up on its own accord. Her bulked-up nipples perked up within her tank top and flexed powerfully, making loud groaning noises. They looked strong enough to lift her body off the ground if she were lying face down.

Luigi stopped crying for a moment to see his girlfriend struggling with the many ghosts that were possessed inside her. He griped her quivering left hand into his own and rested his other hand on her back.

"It's okay, relax…," Luigi said while he soothed her. "We're nearly at the bottom of this… we'll figure out a way to get you back to normal." Valentina looked up at her love and smiled, even though she was in a lot of discomfort. She restrained herself once more… and felt the pain go away.

The bouncing beauty stood up, took a breath and looked at her enormous chest. It bulged tightly in her shirt, and her nipples were still erected upward, looking thicker and longer than ever before.

"Sigh… I hope so, Luigi," she panted. "I… I don't know how much… longer I can hold them in… it's like they're pushing out of me…"

"Like giving birth?" Luigi asked.

Valentina chuckled. "I'm afraid that that is more painful than this is. Even though I never given birth before."

"Oh… but you soon will be, my dear…"

"What did you say?" Valentina questioned to Luigi. He gave a confused look.

"But I didn't say anything, though…"

"No it wasn't. It was me…"

The pair held onto each other as a whirlwind twisted around them. Valentina had a frightened look on her face, while Luigi got out the nozzle from his Poltergust and bravely looked around for the culprit. He didn't have to wait long, as a Boo appeared before the duo. But it wasn't just any old Boo…

It had extra-long fangs placed in its mouth, looking very sharp and intimidating. It's eyes were ruby red and menacing, and had a certain glow to them… like dying stars. And on its head was a purple jewel-encrusted crown. Luigi gasped, his jaw shook in fear…

It was King Boo…

The ghostly, maniacal ruler curled his mouth in a sneer as he eyed his nemesis. "Hahaha… Luigi… we meet again at long last…," he hissed.

The poor Mario Brother couldn't help but quiver in his boots. Even being next to his loving girlfriend couldn't help boost his spirits.

"I see you are delighted of my return…," King Boo laughed wickedly. "Although it had been a few years for you, it had been an eternity for me to get my plans in motion…" The ghost looked at Valentina. "Ah… and I see that you have a companion as well… yes, love can be a powerful thing… but it can only take you so far after it breaks…"

Valentina clenched her fists in anger. "You leave him alone, big bully! He'll suck you up with his vacuum and put you in your place!" she shouted to the tyrannical spectre.

But that only made King Boo cackled loudly. "Hahahaha! You're a feisty one, aren't you? I like that in a female…" He calmed down and grinned from ear to ear. "But I have no desire to mate with a harbouring host… my new children need to be born for the new world I have planned for them…"

The bubbly girl stared down at sneaky spook with a fiery look from her green eyes. "What did you meant when you said 'harbouring host'?" she asked in a steady tone.

King Boo's grin became wider. "It's simple, my dear… your body acts as a vessel that helps my Boo brothers and sisters develop and mature… and once they're fully grown, they flee from the host to happily terrorize and consume the living… But…" The evil ghost got closer to Valentina, so to make his point clearer. "…I want to take that further… I want to make sure that every soul in the Mushroom World will subject to my every whim…"

Lifting his hand out, a blurry object came into existence. It became sharper and sharper in focus to all who were watching it. When it was fully revealed, Luigi could see that it was a short staff. It was no bigger than a baseball bat, and it had a transparent crystal on the top. It was bounded with some sort of metal that shined and glimmered like the sun.

"W-What is that thing?" Luigi asked after gaining enough courage.

"This thing, you are referring to… is an ancient artefact from a long-forgotten civilization…," King Boo explained. "According to mythical belief, it is said to harness the power of the undead and be used upon the enemies of its user… In other words… I can use it to strengthen my brethren that are trapped from within your companion… and use her as my weapon of destruction!"

Valentina's eyes went wide. She couldn't believe her ears. "So… you put those ghosts inside me? All to turn me into a doomsday device?"

"Exactly, my dear!" the haunted ruler exclaimed. "And I think you'll learn to enjoy it when you'll work beside me in my new empire!"

"And what if I refuse to?" she asked defiantly.

King Boo smirked devilishly while he raised his staff. "I'm afraid you'll have no choice in the matter…"

A beam of black light shot out from the crystal and hit Valentina square in the chest. The bubbly girl shrieked as her pain came back a hundred fold.

"Valentina!" Luigi shouted, and he ran to help out his girlfriend. But a shield of dark purple energy blocked his path and blasted him backwards off his feet. He fell in a crumpled heap near the greenhouse.

"Noooooo! Luigi! Ugghhhhhhh!" Valentina arched her back sharply, as her pain burned all over her body. Her huge breasts finally ripped free from her shirt and grew even bigger. Her bones cracked as two bumps began to form on her back. Her skin shone brightly with unnatural light, and her wide green eyes glowed in the dark night. The bouncing beauty looked around in terror as her feet left the ground and she hovered into the air. The bumps that were connected to her spine kept on pushing out further and further until… a large pair of white angel wings, with a span that stretched 20 feet in diameter, burst out from her shoulders.

Valentina tried to move, hoping to fight back the transformation that was happening to her… but she no longer had control over her body. Her bosom was now bigger than the greenhouse, both of her love-pillows rumbled like monstrous creatures. And her throbbing nipples were as long and thick as her forearms, if not more.

As she stood there helplessly, Luigi mumbled while he regained consciousness. He shook his head, got his eyes to focus, and realized that Valentina needed him. He turned around to confront King Boo… but stood in awe at the wonder that was his girlfriend. His heart hammered like crazy as he admired every curve and every detail of the voluptuous female. "She's beautiful…" he thought while he gaped at her body.

King Boo cackled like a maniac, his red eyes dancing with joy. The ghostly tyrant laughed for a long while before he pointed his staff at the dazed Mario Brother.

"I command ye, my faithful servant… strike down this man… strike down Luigi!" he hollered in Boolean.

Luigi's sense came back to him. His eyes widened as he saw Valentina's breasts rumble before they shot out an almighty gush of milk toward him. At the last second, he leapt to the side… just narrowly avoiding the river of bodily liquids that crashed into the greenhouse, destroying it into shrapnel.

The Mario Brother knew he wasn't out of the woods yet, as the stream of high-pressured lactation changed its aim and headed straight for him again. Bouncing back on his feet, Luigi ran as fast as he could, while Valentina unwillingly directed the deadly river of milk to chase him down. It got closer and closer to him, and Luigi knew he couldn't outrun it. So with screech in his shoes, he twisted his direction and did a back-flip jump that cleared both projectiles… again nearly grazing them before landing on solid ground. With a small advantage in time while Valentina's breast shifted course, Luigi dashed towards King Boo with the hose of his Poltergust pointing at him.

"Oh no, no, no! You won't stuff me back in that infernal machine!" howled the insane ghost. King Boo then hissed back at his slave. "Keep him away! Block his path!"

Valentina turned her back at the Mario Brother and flapped her large feathery wings. The wind caused by the updraft pushed Luigi back, and he struggled to stay on the concrete ground. Comically, his legs kept running forward, while he stayed in place. Finally, he couldn't take the current of air blowing against him and flew backwards once more.

The Mario Brother, being prepared this time, twisted his body so he landed on his feet. He gazed his sights on Valentina, who was charging up again for another attack. She yelled to her beloved in anguish.

"I can't stop it, Luigi! You know I don't mean to harm you, but I can't control myself!" she cried, tears rolling down her face.

"I know, Valentina!" he shouted out to her in an assuring tone. "Just hang in there! I'll get you free, I promise!"

He ducked and dodged Valentina's milky projectiles, while he swerved side to side to make sure she couldn't use her wings to blow him off his feet again. He used every kind of jump he and Mario learned in past adventures: long jumps, somersaults, double and triple jumps, spin jumps, flutter jumps, front-flips, back-flips, and even tornado jumps… all to avoid her attacks safely.

King Boo realized that his nemesis was too agile for his servant to take him down. So the ghostly tyrant thought up of a new strategy. He raised his staff in the air.

"Hypnotize him! Make him distracted of his goals!" he screamed in Boolean words.

Valentina gasped in horror. "Luigi! Look away! Don't look at me! He's trying to brainwash you!"

At once, Luigi covered his eyes with his sleeve, while keeping himself from accidentally seeing Valentina's breasts. Running blindly, he heard the whistle of oncoming milk jets and tried avoiding them while relying on his sense of hearing. There were near misses when the projectiles skimmed his clothing, tearing through them like tissues, but never near anything that could be potentially fatal.

King Boo was now getting irritated of this charade, yearning so much to damage Luigi to the point where he'd be mortally shrieking in pain. And then his mind came up with an unorthodox, but plausible idea.

"Quake the earth! Make him unsteady! Make him topple over!" King Boo roared.

Seeing what she was about to do, Valentina tried to warn Luigi, but her mouth became locked by a spell from the ghost tyrant's staff. She flew up at a certain distance, hovered there and came back down. She landed on the ground with her gigantic breasts, causing the most intense earthquake the Mushroom Kingdom had ever felt in over a century.

Luigi felt the tremors beneath his shoes and wobbled to keep his balance. But the event was so sudden, that Luigi couldn't prepare for it in time, and so he fell on his back. The heavy quakes kept on coming, and the poor Mario Brother was tossed around like a rag doll. He fractured his bones in many places, dislocated his left shoulder, and even broke a rib or two. By the time the shaking ceased, Luigi was lying limp on the ground, unmoving and totally battered up.

King Boo laughed evilly, raising his head to the sky and filling the air with his demonic laughter. His finest moment has been achieved. The citizens were running amok with fear, he encased the red plumber in stone, the girl was his to control… and now his greatest nemesis is too hurt to fight anymore. All going accordingly to his devious plan.

And now… it was time to finish off the cowardly Mario Brother once and for all…

"Squish him! Suffocate him until he runs out of air! Crush him, so that his bones will crumble to dust! I command ye, my faithful servant… to flatten him until he… is… DEAD!" King Boo spat, putting much emphasis on the word 'dead'.

Valentina sobbed as she was slowly hovered over to her unconscious boyfriend, being position so that she would crush Luigi with maximum impact. Her heart was breaking in two. She was about to kill the only man that she ever loved, and there was nothing she could do. He looked down at her Luigi's face before whispering softly to him.

"I'm so sorry, my love… please forgive me…," she apologized.

Her tone was that of defeat and sorrow, and she couldn't bear to watch the terrible deed she was about to do. She gave one final airborne kiss to him…

…and by some miracle, Luigi's ears had been able to pick it up. His state was shaken, and his vision a little dizzy… but he could hear Valentina's sobs above him. He could hear how broken-hearted she sounded. His heart felt pain for her… then total rage for King Boo.

He will not let this stand by. He will not see his girlfriend suffer anymore. He may be down… but he was not out.

Valentina dropped to the ground, falling for a second or two before her body came down upon Luigi with a sickening thud. She cried her hardest yet, her face now all splotchy and red. She had done it. She did the one thing that she'd never do to him, and that was hurting him intentionally. She rested her head on her chest, and let out a long drawn-out cry. She could feel his warm body enveloped underneath him, shivering in pain and suffocation, pushing his hands upward for air…

And feeling herself rise again? With much confusion and great surprise, she looked back down where his body laid… only to see Luigi on his knees and, with strength she never knew he had, having both arms thrusting up to lift her heavy body.

"L-L-Luigi?" she asked in a trembling voice.

With a strained grunt, Luigi bared his teeth and pushed himself up to stand while still carrying Valentina above his head. He was in excruciating pain, what with the dislocated shoulder and broken ribs… but none of that mattered, as he was so happy to hear her wonderful voice again.

King Boo's eyes were bugging out of his sockets by the impossible sight he was seeing before him. "No… No! NO! This can't be happening! You're supposed to be dead!" he screamed at Luigi.

Luigi looked at the shocked ghost and gave him a smile, despite how intense his injuries were flaring up.

"I was… but I didn't like it… so I came back," he remarked.

With an extra burst of energy, Luigi tossed her girlfriend upwards and ran towards King Boo once more. He grabbed for his nozzle, only to realize that it wasn't there. He stopped at his tracks to check behind his back… and saw that his trusty Poltergust was flattened like a pancake on the concrete floor. The impact from Valentina's bosom had crush it as though it were tinfoil.

The ghosts that were kept inside had escaped the now broken vacuum. The troubling spooks flew around Luigi until he was surrounded. King Boo's face went from shivering fear to total glee, as he could now see that his nemesis was outnumbered.

"Uh oh…," Luigi gulped. "This isn't good…"

Suddenly… A bright light shone at everyone that was on the rooftop: Luigi, King Boo, Valentina, and even the gang of ghosts. The ghosts themselves were freaking out by the glaring light beam, shielding their bodies with their translucent arms. King Boo hissed at the luminosity as though it were poison.

From the blinding brightness, Luigi tried to look for where the source was coming in. The lights dimmed a bit so that the Mario Brother could make out the shape of the machine that was hovering just off the edge of the Castle.

"I don't believe it… No way…," he said, while laughing out loud.

Yep… it was none other than E. Gadd himself. The old man was sitting comfortably on his Poltergust 3001 while in "Flight Mode". The roaring vacuum was managing to stay afloat, thanks to its extendable airplane wings and jet-propelled exhaust on the bottom. The Professor happily waved to Luigi, who also did the same.

"Check this out, young Luigi!" E. Gadd hollered over the noise of the engine. "It's powered by leftover ectoplasm! And I also got the new and improved 'flashlight' feature working as well!" The lights in question were a set of old car headlights that were strapped onto a flat panel on each side.

"How in the heck did you know we were here?" Luigi called out. E. Gadd simply chuckled.

"I saw your lady friend from afar here, along with some bright lights just a while ago! So I thought I should bring myself some illumination too!"

"You do know that King Boo is responsible for all of this, right?"

The Professor shrugged. "I had a feeling that he'd be back someday! Always remember that, Luigi! History repeats itself!"

"My Poltergust got crushed during the fight! Do you have a spare one I can use?" Luigi asked loudly.

E. Gadd checked inside his vast glove compartment, and dug out a standard Poltergust. By holding onto the straps, the Professor threw it to Luigi… and the Mario Brother caught it in his hands. He put the vacuum on his back, and turned it on.

"Pleasure of doing business, young Luigi!" E. Gadd cheered. "Now give those spooks some tough love and show no mercy!"

Luigi smirked at the ghosts that were eying him. Some were shivering with fright, some were making nervous sounds… one actually farted on impulse from seeing how screwed they were.

"Party's over…Time to take out the trash…," he mumbled.

The ghosts screamed as Luigi gave the vacuum full power and sucked them up like there's no tomorrow. Each one swirled once or twice before falling into the murky depths of the Poltergust. King Boo let out a shrill cry.

"NOOOO! I WILL GET MY REVENGE ON YOU, EVEN IF IT'S THE LAST THING I DO!"

The ghostly ruler lifted up his staff, but Luigi was quick enough to blast in his direction and pull the artefact out of his hands. Giving out a frustrated and hysterical shriek, King Boo flew towards him to claw his face out. Luigi aimed the nozzle, gave it juice… but the vacuum did nothing as the engine stalled on him.

"Come on, come on…," he complained, while smacking his Poltergust to get it to start again. He became worried as King Boo was now a few feet away, his teeth gnashing in a snarl. Luigi cringed and ducked, waiting to be torn apart…

"I don't think so, ghost boy!" Valentina shouted, and she aimed her Ectoplasmic Disrupter straight at the tyrannical ghost. A blast of sonic energy later… and King Boo froze in his place, just an inch from Luigi's face. "No one messes with my boyfriend and gets away with it!"

Luigi looked up at the bubbly girl, who was now simply resting her enormous breasts on the ground below and waving at him. "But… but how…," he spluttered.

"Heehee! I guess since that Boo guy didn't have that silly staff of his anymore, that I'd be able to move freely again!" Valentina cooed. "So I took the opportunity to help you out!"

Luigi laughed. "Hehe… uh, thanks Valentina…" He heard a whirring from his back and his Poltergust had restarted again. "Oh, that's great… now it's working for me!" he sighed with sarcasm.

He aimed his hose at the frozen King Boo and once more gave it all he got. The ghostly king shrieked as he was being sucked up and tried escaping the pull of the vacuum, but it was too late. Luigi had a good hold on him and was reeling him in. King Boo screamed on the top of his lungs.

"I'll get you next time, Luigi! And your little girl too-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o!"

And just like that… it was over.

In the distance, darkness began to vanish as the morning sun crept up from the hills of the Mushroom Kingdom. The swirling, ominous clouds that floated over the Castle was dissolving into nothing, and fluffy white ones took their place. The ghostly occurrences were diminishing as daylight broke in to ring comforting peace to all the Toad citizens from below.

Luigi wiped his forehead from all the sweat he accumulated and sighed happily, knowing he just saved the world again… before he collapsed to the ground.

"Luigi!" Valentina exclaimed, and she floated over to him with her angel wings, trying to tend to his severe injuries. "Oh, Luigi! Are you okay, honey?"

The Mario Brother mumbled some incomprehensible words before opening his bleary eyes, looking up at her and smiled.

"Hey, Valentina… I did good today, didn't I? Luigi asked in a placid and happy manner.

"Oh dear… I think you have a concussion from me landing on you," Valentina worried. "We have to get you to the hospital…"

Luigi continued to have that care-free expression. "And… you did good too. Actually… you did great. Better than great… you were awesome…"

Valentina smiled at him lovingly. And then she let out an excited squeal as she felt a tremendous pressure pushing in her chest.

"Ughhhhh! Oh boy…," she panted, as her nipples tightened up and began to leak. "I think it's all coming out this time!"

/

Meanwhile on solid ground, a crowd of people were gathering near the Mushroom Castle to see what happened to their ghost busting saviour. Among the crowd, a tiny Toad boy with a purple-spotted cap and blue striped shirt was hiding from his mother.

"Timmy? Timmy! Gracious spores… where are you, child?" she called out.

Timmy was poking out from under the many feet of the Mushroom Kingdom citizens, trying to see if his mother was near. Fortunately, she was on the other side of the crowd.

Suddenly, the people dispersed in quite a hurry as they were all screaming about something. Timmy wondered what caused them to run. Then he saw the ground get dark… and slowly looked up in the sky. Timmy's eyes bugged out.

"What in the…" were his words before he was hit with 25,000 gallons of fresh, sparkling white and surprisingly sweet breast milk all at once.

/

The north side of the Mushroom Castle rooftop was completely drenched with white liquid. Here and there were large puddles of Valentina's bodily fluids, and any grime that was within the blast radius of her explosive lactation was wiped clean.

The bouncing beauty herself was now lying on top of Luigi, her breasts back to their regular (yet still large) size. She nuzzled her boyfriend with her cheek, while her feathery wings covered the two to keep them warm. She felt peace within herself, knowing that the ghosts were no longer possessing her body, and just wanted to curl up with her beloved… at least until she felt fully rested.

"Mama mia…," a voice groaned in the distance.

Valentina slowly opened her bright blue eyes and rubbed her face. Her mind must be playing tricks, as she could have sworn she heard Mario. She got up from her slumber, her wings covering her naked body like a bathrobe, and scanned the area. And to her surprise, she saw Luigi's brother shaking and dusting concrete pieces off himself among the group of statues.

"Mario?" Valentina asked with amazement. The red plumber perked his head up upon the call of his name and turned around. A mixture of awe, shyness and confusion came upon his face, all at the same time, as he saw Valentina standing there curiously with her large angel wings, completely nude at her torso.

"Oh wow, Mario!" She ran up to him and hugged his brains out. "Thank goodness you're okay! Luigi will be so glad to see you back to normal when he wakes up!"

Mario gave her a bewildered look and asked what she meant by "waking up". Valentina gasped and looked back at Luigi's unconscious form.

"Oh! I've almost forgotten about him! We need get him some medical attention," she explained. "I think he's got some broken ribs… and probably some other injuries as well." Mario nodded in understanding.

A voice shouted out from one of the stairwell entrances. And Valentina gasped again when she recognized it.

"Mario? Is that you up here?" came Peach's worried words.

"We got to get out of here, Mario!" the bubbly girl whispered urgently. "If she sees me like this with you… I'm almost positive she'll rip my hair out!" Mario understood the situation. She and Peach had a shaky relationship when they were together finding the Star Pieces… and there was still some tension between the two.

Before they did anything however, Mario asked Valentina where she got the wings. Valentina let out an "Oh!" while examining her fluffy appendages.

"I didn't realize I still have them!" she said with astonishment. "We can probably make a good escape if I fly all three of us out of here!"

Just before Mario can object if that was even a smart and logical idea, the bouncing beauty yanked him to get his brother up. Very softly, she wrapped her right arm around Luigi by the waist and picked him effortlessly. She held onto Mario tightly with her other arm, making sure she didn't drop him or his green sibling.

Valentina backed up a bit and got her elegant angel wings to extend to their full length.

"Fasten your seatbelts, guys! We're clear for take off!" she happily cheered.

Mario screamed as she ran to the edge of the Castle, flapping her feathery appendages strongly. As soon as they were a few feet from the rooftop, the portly plumber yelped and covered his eyes.

He was still cringing after the first few seconds… and realized that they didn't go splat on the ground after a few seconds more. Mario uncovered his vision… and was dazed to see that they were gliding in the air, with the wind blowing in his face. He looked down, seeing they were 50 feet above the grassy plains of the Mushroom Kingdom and climbing higher still.

"Lovely view, huh?" Valentina asked. Her face was full of joy as she beat her wings, bringing them to a steeper altitude. They soared above the heads of many confused Toads that looked up at them, as she headed south to where the hospital building was located.

At the Mushroom Castle, Peach finally was on the rooftop, looking around to see where she heard the voices, only to find no one was there.

"Huh… I could have sworn I heard Mario a moment ago…," she wondered. And then the Princess added in venomously,"…and I also could have sworn I heard her…" She squinted at the sky and saw something that piqued her curiosity.

"That's strange… I never seen a bird that large before," Peach marvelled while shielding her eyes from the morning sun. "Could it be…?" She shook her blonde head. "Nah, it can't be… Mario doesn't grow wings when he flies… or… does he?" she asked herself. The Princess gave a shrug and, seeing how there was no point to stay here any longer, climbed back down the Castle to make some breakfast tea.

"This is amazing! I so wished this happened to me sooner! We're actually flying!" shouted the bubbly girl, as she glided above Mushroom Forest with complete bliss in her eyes.

Mario smiled as she was having the time of her life. Same old Valentina…

/

Luigi felt a painful rush to his head when regained consciousness. He kept his eyes closed, and struggled to comprehended the events that happened to him. He remembered defeating King Boo and his evil plot for world domination… but he couldn't remember any further than that. In his current position, he felt surprisingly warm as something heavy was on top of his body.

The Mario Brother was swarmed with many questions in his head. What was going on? Why does he feel so fragile and dizzy? Where were the others? Did he past on to the afterlife? His mind spun as tried to answer those questions and got nowhere. He realized the only way he will know what was going on is by seeing it for himself.

Luigi opened his eyes and looked around. He appeared to be in a white room with chairs and children drawings posted on the walls… while he himself was tucked into some fluffy yellow blankets. To his right, he saw some empty comfortable beds and a brown door that seemed to lead out of the room. And to his left, he saw a large window that shone bright light into him.

He tried to get up from his springy mattress, and was startled when he heard a sound from the foot of his bed. Luigi squinted… and saw Valentina resting her head and arms on his legs. He could see that she was in a deep sleep… and was a bit shocked to see that she still had those large angel wings on her back.

Or… could it be that she has them because something horrible had happened? Did he actually saw his girlfriend die, instead of saving the Mushroom Kingdom? Or worse… was he dead? Or was it both?

He attempted to stand up again, and that caused the bouncing beauty to awake from her slumber. She had a glazed look on her face while lifting her pretty pink head, and she rubbed her blue eyes with a yawn.

"Please… let me stay with him for a little longer…," Valentina mumbled, while moving her groggy face from side to side. Her eyes went wide when she noticed Luigi was now conscious and she let out a small gasp.

"L-Luigi?" the bubbly girl stuttered. The Mario Brother continued to stare at her, blinking once or twice with his mouth slightly open.

Her face curled into wide, happy grin. "Luigi! You're awake!" Valentina leapt onto his bed with her whole body and hugged him dearly. Luigi breathed up sharply and screamed as a terrible pain struck him at his torso. Realizing her mistake, Valentina quickly drawn back from him.

"Oh, I'm sorry! I forgot your bones are still healing!" she apologized shrilly. She clutched her hands in anxiety, feeling a little guilty for hurting him. Her wings even cringed a bit.

Luigi thought nothing further about the accident, as he tried to regulate his breathing to a calm pace. "Are… are we… are we… d-dead?" he asked nervously. Valentina stared at him for a minute… and laughed at his reaction.

"No, silly! You're in the hospital!" she giggled. When Luigi looked at her with bewilderment, she went onto explaining. "I personally brought you here after you fainted on the rooftop. The doctor checked you up, and said you were suffering some mild head trauma… along with a quite a few scrapes, bruises, and other various wounds, I might add…," she slowly said with a concerned look.

She continued on. "They told me you had to rest for a while, so that your body could repair itself. But I didn't want to see you be totally alone if you had woken up… so I've been watching over you until you got better. You could even go as far saying that I acted as…" Valentina giggled a little while rubbing her feathery appendages tenderly and affectionately. "…your personal 'guardian angel'."

Luigi smiled at her, and felt totally glad that neither he or her were killed in the process. Then he began to panic, as he noticed his Poltergust wasn't around.

"Gah! Where did it go?" he stammered, quickly twisting his head left and right for the vacuum. "They don't know what they're handling! What if they accidentally open it?" Valentina looked at him with confusion, wondering what he was babbling about. Then it dawned on her on what he was looking for. She held onto his shoulders gently to calm him down.

"Shhh… relax…," she hushed. "E. Gadd already took the liberty of clearing out your stuff for you. So we don't have to worry about that King Boo coming back anytime soon."

"R-Really? Sigh…" Luigi's posture slackened and he sat back down, his stress already dissolving. "That makes me feel loads better… knowing he's gone… I really wouldn't want to try saving the world twice in one week now, would I?" he humorously added.

The two of them had a good laugh with each other. They came a long way since their meeting on that train. If one of them was down, the other would be there to pick them up. He'd do anything for her… and she would do the same. Not even a thousand ghosts could spoil Luigi's mood… as long as he and Valentina were together. And that's what mattered the most…

By the time they were all laughed out, Luigi had a bold idea moving inside his head. He looked at Valentina and gave her a mischievous smirk.

"You know… since no one is around, we could have a little fun together…," he suggested in a romantic tone, much like how the bouncing beauty would speak to him when she playfully teased him.

This sudden new side of Luigi puzzled Valentina. "W-What do you mean?" she asked.

He continued to give her that calm, smooth-talking voice and appearance. "I mean… do something that involves being a little… 'intimate'. You know… show our close feelings for each other…"

Valentina caught on with what he was trying to do. So she thought about playing that game as well. "Oh… I see what you mean, honey…," she spoke in a seductive matter. "If intimacy is what you want… then I'll give you all the intimacy you really need…"

She stood on her knees on top his bed, with a very broad smile on her face. She place both of her hands beside her boyfriend and got into a crouching position. Her body was hovering above Luigi's, as she lowered her eyes on him.

"Uh… V-Valentina? What are you doing?" Luigi stuttered. He realized that he came off a little too strong on her, and now thinks she really wanted to do something that would otherwise be a big jump in their relationship.

"What's the matter, sweetie?" she purred cutely, her eyes glazed with heavy passion. "This is what you wanted, right? I want it just as you do, too. And I promise I won't hold back…"

"B-B-But… I was only joking, Valentina!" the Mario Brother struggled to explain. "I didn't m-meant in…THAT way! I was just fooling around!"

The bubbly girl's smirk grew more pronounced. "Sure you did, Luigi… I was joking too…"

He let out a relieved sigh.

"So… we'll do things seriously from now on, my lover boy…" And she got closer to the panicking Mario Brother.

Luigi yelped, and backed away in fear as his girlfriend was still unwavering her libidinal actions. "C-Come on now! L-Let's not be hasty! I haven't even done this before, so I'm far from being ready to lose something I keep 'precious hold' of! And we're not even married yet! V-Valentina? Valentina? AGGHHH!"

He screamed as the bouncing beauty had her arms locked around him. His attempts to escape were no longer possible. Valentina's love-struck face was now an inch from his, while her formidable bosom pressed into his chest. He could feel her racing heartbeat, pounding more energetically than his frightened one. Her large wings curled around them like a cocoon, shielding them from unwary, innocent eyes.

"P-Please, Valentina! This is g-getting out of h-hand! I'm not r-ready for this!"

"But I so am, Luigi…," she replied in a sultry voice.

"Please! L-Listen to me! T-This isn't funny anymore! I can't do this! I…"

She put a slender finger to his lips. "Don't worry, honey… I'll take care of everything for you…"

"But… but…," he spluttered to say, but could not come up with anything.

Luigi turned away and closed his eyes, whimpering as he thought about the inevitable situation that was about to take fold. And he waited… and waited… and still waited… but nothing like that happened to him. He wasn't smothered or dominated, nor was he harmed in any way. Instead, he felt a very gentle peck on his cheek, and heard his girlfriend giggle.

"It's okay, Luigi," she simply smiled, as she watched his eyes glance back at her. "I won't force you to do anything like that. Besides, I don't even know how it works either!"

"So…," the Mario Brother asked warily, unsure if this was a trick or not. "…you're not going to do what I thought you were going to do to me?"

"Of course not, Luigi… unless you thought I was going to take you out for ice cream… then that's a whole different story!" Valentina laughed. She sighed and happily rubbed her tiny nose on Luigi's nose. "But regardless… you don't have to do something with me if you truly feel uncomfortable about it. I'll understand, okay? We'll both be ready when you are ready…"

Luigi smiled hopefully and nodded. He got his arms loose and wrapped them around her in a loving hug. The bubbly girl giggled again and stroked his soft cheeks with her hands. She felt his arms move closer to her neck. Ever so tenderly, he brought her face closer and closer to his own until… both of their lips met in a passionate kiss.

No one knew how long they stay like that for. Valentina's feathery wings ruffled a little while she embraced her lover in their wonderful moment. Luigi's heart raced, but not in fear this time… its rhythm pulsed in tune to the heartbeat of his lover. They broke their kiss apart for only a moment before they whispered to one another.

"I love you, Luigi…"

"I love you too. Valentina…"

And they resumed to their tender feelings to each other. Nothing can come between their affection… not even death itself. They kept kissing for yet a while longer, before Luigi broke the silence again.

"There has been one thing that keeps eating at the corner of my mind," he wondered. "Have you decided what you would do with those?" He pointed to her wings, and Valentina took the time to think about it.

"Well… the doctor said he could remove them, since they're not attached to anything vital, but… I'm not so sure…," she admitted. She stood upright, lifted them up to their full form and gazed admiringly at them.

"And why is that?" Luigi asked with curiosity.

"Because…" Valentina took a long while to answer, while still looking up at her wings. "…they're a part of me. Even though I never intentionally meant to grow them, they did came from my body. And I can't help but say… I want to keep them." She looked back at her beloved. "Do you think I should keep them, Luigi?"

Luigi paused while he took in the awe-inspiring beauty of her elegant appendages. "Well, I can't force you to make the decision… but what else that's been bothering me is… how will you get clothes that fit you with them?"

The bubbly girl shrugged. She had not been wearing a shirt since her transformation, and her breasts were still bare naked.

"Again, I don't know…I really like the cool idea that I can fly now, but I also want to keep my public decency too… It's just so hard…"

"Maybe E. Gadd could help find a way," Luigi suggested. "He's done the impossible before… maybe he can help conceal your wings without losing them…"

Valentina chuckled. "That would be wonderful if he did… but can I ask you something?"

"Sure," he said.

"Do you really like my wings, Luigi?" she questioned. "Even though they're not something you're used to seeing me with… Do you really honestly like them?"

Luigi turned his head out to the window on his left, and saw the great outdoors from beyond.

"Why don't we try them out?" he smiled. "See if they're any good?"

The Toad doctors were in a frantic mess. They searched everywhere high and low for one of their missing clients. There was no report from the receptionist clerk that he left by the front entrance, nor was there any sight of the female that took him in to get checked in the first place. It was like they simply disappeared into thin air.

They would be half-right in that statement…

"Whoa! Careful now, don't drop me!" Luigi exclaimed. Valentina roared with laughter as they skimmed across the calm stretch of the Midas River.

"Don't worry, hon. I got a good hold on you," she cooed.

It was unlike anything Luigi ever experienced before. Sure… he had flown before with Feather Capes and Tanooki Suits in the past. But this… was by far the most surreal way to travel by air. And yet… he was enjoying every moment of it.

"Wow! This is quite the rush! I feel like I'm on top of the world!" he proclaimed.

"I know, right?" Valentina asked with just as much enthusiasm. "I wish every day was like this!"

They sailed and shot through the open landscape at the speed of a Bullet Bill, yet also with the grace of an Albatoss. They were now heading out of the coastlines and hovering over the vast body of the ocean. At the distance, the setting sun shone like a beacon over the waters, delivering the last few rays of light to this part of the Mushroom World. It was a relaxing and majestic scene… and Valentina and Luigi were quietly watching the sky glow an assortments of orange and violet.

"Did you ever regret meeting me, Luigi?" she asked, after they were flying for over an hour.

"What was there to regret, though?" was his simple response.

The bouncing beauty looked at her passenger with happiness. "What I mean to say is… did you wish you could have done things differently… that day when we were on the train?"

Luigi thought deeply about her question. "If I would have done things differently… I would have gone back in time and talk to my former self…"

"And what would you have said to him?" Valentina wondered.

Luigi smiled and looked up at her. "You'll do great with her…"

"Aww…" She hugged him close her body, as they flew towards the fiery horizon… both feeling content to one another of the unbreakable bond they shared.
