(A/N:The fic will follow as closely to Scooby-Doo & The Ghoul School as my creativity will allow, so the chapters will only differ from the movie in the sense of interaction the characters have with Luigi, Mario, Toad, Booigi, & E. Gadd. Just wanted to get that outta the way.)
The morning sun rose on Grimwood School & a rooster crowed to get the others up. After a while of crowing though, a disgruntled Matches came out of the window behind it & breathed fire at it, scaring it away. Miss Grimwood was up bright & early, calling all the others down.
"Ready for some early-morning exercise, Toad?" She asked Toad, who was all up & ready to go, dressed in his normal attire, including his Poltergust 3000 strapped nicely to his back.
"You bet, Miss Grimwood." He replied. "Want me to wake up Luigi?"
"No, don't bother." Miss Grimwood replied. "I've left him a wake-up call." In Luigi's room, Luigi was sleeping in his bed in a set of white pajamas & a night cap. The poltergust 3000 hung on the wall just next to his bed. The disembodied hand then floated to Luigi's side & shook his shoulder to try & wake him up. However, it didn't work.
"5-a more minutes, mom." Luigi muttered in his sleep. The hand however, was undeterred & continued shaking Luigi. Luigi however, brushed the hand off. "But school's-a not for another hour." He said. However, the hand then showed up with an alarm clock, & then rung it right in Luigi's ear. "WAAH!!" Luigi shouted. He then immediately woke up & bolted into an upright position. Luigi looked over at the clock & saw the time. "Oh boy." He said. "Looks like I'm in for-a some early-morning excercises." He then started stretching & some cracks were heard in his spine. After that, he got out of the bed & walked over to the dresser. He opened it up & pulled out his usual set of clothes & the Game Boy Horror. He changed, & walked over to the Poltergust 3000. He picked it off the wall & placed it on his back. He then pocketed the Game Boy Horror, & picked his hat off of the door. He then opened it & walked out the door. However, as he walked down the hall, he accidentally stepped on Matches' tail.
"YOW!!" Matches yowled as he jumped in the air. He then looked at Luigi, & glared angrily at him. "Grrrrr." He growled. He then took a deep breath, turned red, & blew a stream of flames at Luigi, setting the seat of his overalls on fire. Luigi felt this & his eyes went wide.
"YAAAAAAAAAAAAH!!" He shouted, running down the hall. "FIRE!!" He ran past Miss Grimwood & Toad over to a nearby fishbowl. He placed it on the ground & sat on it, putting out the fire. Miss Grimwood & Toad walked over to him. Toad put a finger under his lower lip & looked at the fishbowl on the floor. He saw a very disgruntled-looking goldfish coming out from behind the rock.
"Uh, Luigi." Toad said. "I don't think that the goldfish likes that."
"That's no goldfish, Toad." Miss Grimwood said. "That's our pet piranha." Luigi looked at her.
"Piranha?" He asked, now sounding very nervous. The piranha swam up to Luigi's pants, & bit Luigi on the butt. His eyes widened & his pupils shrunk, both in fear & pain. "YYYOOOOOOOOWWWWW!!" He shouted, leaping off the bowl. He began bouncing around on his butt to the pain of being bitten buy the piranha, which clung to the seat of his pants. Meanwhile, the Grimwood Girls had all assembled in the dance hall, all wearing tutus.
"Miss Grimwood said we'd be taking ballet lessons this morning." Sybella said. Right then, Luigi bounced into the room, shouting.
"OW WOWOWOWOWOWOWAH!!" He shouted.
"This must be a new step." Elsa said, then began imitating it, bouncing around the room on her butt, along with the other girls.
"It's a real howl." Winnie said. "AWOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!" Tanice turned to Winnie.
"Careful, Winnie." Tanice said. "You're slapping on my wrapping." Indeed, Winnie's paw was hitting Tanice's mummy wrapping every time it hit the ground. Phantasma & Sybella were bouncing right behind him.
"Hee hee hee hee." Phantasma giggled. "How am I doing, Sybella?"
"Oh, fangtastic, Phanty." Sybella replied. Miss Grimwood & Toad watched Luigi & the Grimwood Girls bouncing around.
"Looks like Luigi's got the ballet class started." Miss Grimwood said, commenting on Luigi's bouncing around.
"Well, he CAN jump better than his brother." Toad replied. Miss Grimwood then handed Toad a little tutu.
"You take over now, Toad." She said. Toad looked at her.
"What? Me?" He asked. Then handed it back. "Oh no no no no no, Miss Grimwood. There's no way I'm putting on a tutu." The disembodied hand, however, took the tutu slipped it onto Toad instantly.
"Oh, but I insist." Miss Grimwood replied. Toad then stood there grimacing, feeling emasculated at having a tutu on him.
"Alright, fine." He muttered, then went to join Luigi & the girls. The disembodied hand then went over to a gramophone, turned the crank a little, and put the needle on the record. It then returned to turning the crank, making music start to play. Then Luigi, now with a tutu, started dancing ballet with Toad, who felt even sillier than when the tutu was put on him.
"Why do we have to dance around in these things, Luigi?" He asked, annoyed. "I feel silly."
"Yeah, me-a too, Toad." Luigi said. "But I think-a Miss Grimwood has a reason for-a this. Which would be thaaaaaaaaaaat…"
"Because ballet will make my little ghouls limber." Miss Grimwood replied to the 2.
"Yeah, what she said." Luigi replied.
"I STILL feel silly." Toad replied, still annoyed at having to wear a tutu. He leapt again, but accidentally bumped into Luigi, making them both spin. The Grimwood girls begun spinning too.
"Oh, we'll be in great shape when we take on those Calloway Cadets at volleyball." Sybella said. After a bit, the disembodied hand began to turn the crank more slowly, making Luigi, Toad, & the Grimwood Girls dance slowly along with it. Miss Grimwood then approached the hand, looking annoyed a bit.
"Tempo. Tempo." Miss Grimwood said, wagging a finger at the hand. The hand let go of the crank & let itself get some rest before it went back to turning the crank, & faster this time. This made everybody else dance faster. Elsa stepped on Tanice's wrappings at the same time she did a pirouette, making her wrappings come off a bit.
"Ooooh." Tanice said. "Ballet really makes me unwind." She then did a pirouette on the opposite direction from last time, and rewound her wrappings. Meanwhile, nobody in the room were aware that they were being watched from outside.
"I have made visual contact by scope." A boy's voice said. "Looks like those girls are performing some sort of weird ritual."
"I'm not surprised." Another boy's voice said. "It's Halloween all year long at that old Grimwood place." Several boys in blue military uniforms were monitoring the girls, Luigi, & Toad through their window with a large scope.
"Hey, they've got some new students." The boy looking through the scope said, seeing Luigi & Toad dancing. "A tall green thing with a vacuum on its back, & what looks like a mushroom with arms & legs."
"Hey, let me see, Miguelle." A fat cadet said, grabbing the handles on the scope.
"Careful, Grunt." The cadet monitoring the girls, Miguelle, said. "That new scope has a-" But before Miguelle could finish, the fat cadet, Grunt, made him drop the scope on on Grunt's head, & the headphones clamp around Miguelle's ears. "Trigger-r-r-r." Miguelle finished, shaking from the shock. The tiny cadet then looked off somewhere else & saw something that made him get the older blonde cadet's attention.
"Todd, it… " He said, poking the tall blonde cadet, Todd's, attention. "It's Colonel Calloway." This made Todd jump & turn in the direction Colonel Calloway was approaching then from.
"'Ten SHUN!!" He shouted, making all the other cadets, except Miguelle who was shaking too much, salute. A man in a blue Colonel's uniform with a sticking out chin, big nose, & sticking out mustache then approached, presumably the person was Colonel Calloway.
"At ease, men." Colonel Calloway said, making the cadets stop saluting. Colonel Calloway then saw Miguelle, who was still shaking. "I said "at ease", cadet." Calloway said to him. Miguelle then put his own hands on his ears to try & stop the shaking, to little avail. Grunt then held him still to help him finally stop the shaking. Miguelle looked at Grunt gratefully.
"Thanks, Grunt." He said. "I needed that." Colonel Calloway noticed the bent scope & looked through the end that usually picks up what users try to see.
"I see you have been observing your opponents." He said.
"Yes Sir." Todd said. "Calloway Cadets are always prepared." Colonel Calloway then held up a volleyball, not looking too impressed at what his cadets were doing.
"But you haven't been practicing, & I'm challenging Miss Grimwood's School to our annual volleyball match." He said, dribbling the volleyball on the ground. He then passed it to Grunt, who caught it in his hands.
"No problem, we always beat those girls." Grunt said. He then volleyed the ball. The ball flew over the net, bounced off some trees, & flew back at them all.
"Hit the deck!!" Colonel Calloway shouted, ducking onto the ground. The Calloway cadets also dodged the runaway ball, which flies through the hedge into Grimwood's year.
"As you can see, sir." Todd said as he & grunt helped Colonel Calloway to his feet. "Grunt here has a dynamite serve."
"So I noticed." Colonel Calloway said, dusting himself off.
"It's all in the wrist, sir." Grunt replied.
"Uh, you could use some work on your control." Colonel Calloway complemented. "Keep up the good work." He said, saluting, before walking off.
"Yes, sir." The cadets said, saluting.
"Our ball is now in Grimwood territory." A tall black cadet said, pointing to the hedge behind him. "Recommend a recon patrol to retrieve it."
"Good idea, Jamal." Todd said. "Front & center, Grunt." He said to Grunt. "Lead the way!"
"CHAAAAAAAAAAAAARRRRRRRRRRGE!!" Grunt shouted, running towards the hedge full force. He then ran through the hedge with the other cadets behind him. However, as soon as they entered Grimwood's yard, they saw something that made Grunt stop, & made all the other cadets run into him. "Uh oh." He said. Matches was holding onto the volleyball, & didn't look too happy too see the Calloway cadets. His tail turned red.
"It's the Grimwood's weird guard dog." Todd said, pointing at Matches. "& he looks mucho hot under the collar."
"Easy, boy." The tall black cadet, Jamal, said, approaching Matches with his hands up. "We just want our ball." The answer was, however, ducking a fireball produced by Matches. "But I think he wants to keep it." He said, turning to run away.
"Cadets, advance to the rear." Todd said, as he & the other cadets turned & started running. "& step on it!" He said as he & the other cadets began running from Matches. Matches blew a breath of fire at them as they ran back through the hedge to Calloway grounds.
"pant pant I… I guess we'll be cutting our volleyball practice short." Grunt said, running from Matches flame, which had burned out. Matches just chuckled to himself & carried there ball off.
