Super Luigi Sunshine! Part 8; Med Bill Skyrockets!
Shine Name: Shine 3/4: Hellcourse 1!

A/N: This chapter is horrible despite being retyped... NO MORE HELLCOURSES AFTER THIS THOUGH! DESPITE WHAT IS SAID!

^Night Time - Delfino Plaza^
It was very late at night and Mario just sat atop a house, he didn't know where the Hotel was and doubted he would even be allowed in. Last night he at least had the prison cell but tonight… just dark coldness. He wasn't sure if Delfino nights were supposed to be THIS dark, was it like day and was darker because of no shines? Hopefully because this darkness was too much. He was sitting on top of Cujo's house, which was one of the few on the other side of the small inlet with boats, but because of the darkness Mario could barely see the boats! The only light was the giant full moon that was visible behind the hazy atmosphere above the huge mountain called Corona Mountain.
"I wonder what the others are doing…" Mario says sadly to Emile.
"Who knows, probably trashing their hotel rooms and getting drunk together," Emile says.
"Toadsworth is with Peach, he'll never let her do anything like that… not that she would anyway!" Mario says before puffing out a sad sigh, his warm breath made a small cloud because of the cold. Unknown to Mario, but not to Emile, someone was watching him from inside a house with a small tower-like top. (The one you pay to be thrown into) Emile had saw the spying person straight away but didn't class it as important.

Iggy stood in a blue carpeted room spying on Mario. Luckily for him he had a natural tolerance to the cold but if he didn't he'll probably give away his location from the sound of chattering teeth.
"Iggy! Come in Iggy, what is he doing at the moment?" Luigi asked through the Com Link. Iggy held it close to his mouth.
"Freezing atop a house, a pump attached to his back. He also was moving his mouth like he was speaking to someone, maybe he's already gone insane?" Iggy suggests.
"He has the pump! That explains his success so far, I'll have to call Gonzalo and tell him to send him to the Hellcourse," Luigi says.
"What's that?" Iggy asked.
"A course that will seem like Hell to Mario!" Luigi says.

^Five-ish minutes later^
Bowser Junior had morphed into a Pianta and looked around the Plaza for Mario, he had already emptied out a house of its owners (killed them) and wanted to get Mario in before he got a cold and ruined things. He spotted his father's rival and walked over to the building.
"Hey there Mario! You seem cold!" Bowser Junior called out. Mario looked at him, he was a Blue Pianta. "You want to stay at my place?" Bowser Junior asked. Mario smiled and jumped down to Bowser Junior.
"Sure! Where is it?" Mario asked unbeknownst that the Pianta with him was the cause of all his troubles.
"Follow me, it's the one near the Lighthouse!" Bowser Junior says and leads Mario away. (The one next to the Police Station with the window open)

^Day 3^
Mario had woke up alone, the strange Pianta who allowed him his house was gone. Mario left the house and stepped out into the dark morning. He walked through the still setting up street with the stores and found his way to the Pianta Grand Statue. He stepped in and warped into Bianco Hills.
The Sunglasses wearing Pianta rushed to him.
"Hey Mario! I just saw you but with some brush run into the cave at the top of the river near the Windmill!" The Pianta says.
"Thanks! That was that faker!" Mario says and quickly ran off to said location.

Mario had climbed his way up and stood before the entrance of the pitch black cave.
"Ready Emile?" Mario asked... he got no reply? Mario then realised FLUDD was gone! Did that Pianta steal it? Or did he leave it at the house… no he never took it off because he didn't want to feel the needle again in the morning! Mario sighed knowing he'll have to do without and stepped into the cave. A beam of azure light hit him and everything changed to flashing lights! Was the faker trying to give him a seizure? Mario made it through the few minutes of lights and appeared on a floating platform in a pure black world, nothing but other platforms existed.
"Hello Mario!" A strange robotic voice says and Mario looked over at Petey, who was standing on a platform with a Shine, too bad the platform was on the other end of the group of platforms.
"You… speak!? Wait…" Mario stuttered.
"Welcome to Hellcourse 1, this place is designed to kill you, but being nice I'll inform you of something, in here you have something called Life Force, if you fall into the black void below you will feel extreme amounts of pain and lose a large quantity of Life Force, if that amount reaches zero you die of whatever name you want to call running out of Life Force!" Petey says.
"Really? How much do I have?" Mario asked.
"You have a watch like device strapped to your arm that shows it!" Petey says and Mario looked at his arm.
"Whoa, when did that get there?" Mario says looking the watch over. It had one hundred on the screen."How much would I lose?" Mario asked.
"Don't know, depends," Petey says shrugging. Mario then jumped off into the black void and quickly reappeared where he was, he screamed out in pain and looked at the watch, it had dropped ten. (90)
"By the way! My name's Petey!" Petey says.
"Alright, so why are you here exactly?" Mario asked.
"I was here to take the pump from you but you seem to be without it already," Petey says.
"It's called FLUDD, so why are you still here?" Mario asked and Petey just jumps off into the void, unlike Mario who vanished and reappeared Petey just vanished. "How hard could this be, I rock at-ta jumping!" Mario says to himself trying to keep high spirits.

(Mario)
I stood on the floating platform, nothing seemed like it would cause me to fall off.
(Start)
I walk over to the edge and look at a huge cube. I jump onto it and land on the red coloured top.
(Dice Block)
It then began to slowly move towards some other platforms that were a short distance away. I stood still and the cube started to tilt down while moving. I slipped not expecting it to keep tilting and fell into the void. I reappear at the start and looked around, the cube was slowly coming back. (80)
(Start)
I walk to it and hop on once it arrived.
(Dice Block)
I stood ready for the tilting, it moved slowly towards the platforms and began to tilt. I step onto the blue side and it began tilting sideways, I step onto the green and it started tilting back. I step back onto the blue and jump onto a slowly spinning star shaped platform.
(Spinning Stars)
The other stars ahead were spinning a lot faster. After the first two it looked to split into three different sets, all the same speed but they seemed to get faster after each row, the last row was moving so fast it was a blur from here. I easily jump onto the star and wobbled at the edge, the platforms weren't very big but nothing compared to what I've been through. I hop onto the next without trouble and stand ready for the next, I waited for the star to spin me around so I faced the right way… I jump and one foot lost balance, I slip off and grab the platform to the right, it spun around and I hit my head on the one I slipped on. (77) I pull myself up and stand as still as I could. I wait and jump onto the next star, I landed without any issues and prepare for the last row, it looked so fast! I jump and land on the side one, I slipped and fell inbetween the right and middle one, the two banged into me and I managed to grab a edge. (66) I pull myself up just avoiding slamming into the middle again. I stayed on my knees and dared not stand up, in front of the middle star was two floating walls placed close together, probably to wall jump up. I attempt to stand and felt myself lose balance, I quickly drop back down and hold the edges for support. I move ready to get onto the middle star and wait… It spun ready but I held back, I wait again and make a short hop onto it, I landed better then I expected and stand up. I jump at the wall and quickly wall jump up.
(Wall Jumping)
I reached the top and walked across a small platform to the Shine.
(End)
I reach for it but the platform shook. I lost balance and slammed down onto my back. A copy of me then stepped closer, looking down at me while I lay on my back. I kick up and they were knocked back, they stumbled back and almost drop the brush they held. They regained balance just at the edge.
"WHO ARE YOU!?" I yell pointing. I had them corned again! They held two fingers to their head and gave me a salute before letting themselves fall backwards and off the edge. I run to the edge and watch them vanish in the void. "COWARD!" I yell and grab the shine, the shine then teleported me back to the tower.

A/N: See? That was horrible even after it has been edited, I wish I could remove this chapter but then I have to edit even more stuff, remember... NO MORE OF THESE WILL APPEAR!
