I just want you guys to know, it took me ages and ages to write that chant because I'm rubbish at rhyming, just wanted you to know.

Mario couldn't sleep. He had a strange feeling of uncertainty, nervousness, but he couldn't work out why. Mario could hear Luigi snoring softly in the bed next to his and sighed, trying not to get jealous of the fact that he was sleeping soundly. Mario turned over onto his stomach but suddenly, he heard a noise. Mario sat up and strained his ears. There it was again! Some sort of singing? Mario looked at his watch, it was 11:30. Who on earth would be singing this late at night? Mario thought. He decided to go and investigate.

The corridor was eerily dark. The candles had been put out so it was almost pitch black. Mario insisted to himself that he wasn't scared, just a little wary. The singing was getting louder and louder. It was coming from room 23; Mario put his ear to the door and listened. It wasn't really singing, more like chanting.

"Save us save us save us all

From the clutches of Mr Numquam

Behind his plastered on smile

Holds a truly evil man

He has so much power

He can change your fate

And lock you up

So you can't escape

So save us quick

We cannot flee

He's trapped us here

Can't you see?

Who will stop,

His bad behaviour?

Someone please,

We need a saviour

Someone

Anyone…"

The voices slowly died out.
