Author's Note: First I'll answer some reviews.
Some of you didn't like the song I use, 'Party like a Rockstar'. Personally, it's not really one of my favorites or anything, I just went online looking for party songs and this was one of them that pop up. This chapter will contain two well-known songs - both of which are very likeable.
A guest asked me which voice Luigi is using; the cartoon or the game? Well, I'm basing this story off the game but you guys can use whether voice you want to use.(Although a new Mario show would be great, something base on the newer games like the Paper Mario series and could probably rival with Sonic X - which is now boring because all they show are re-runs).
...
Enjoy :)

Chapter 5:
Sliding, Shuffling, Dancing

As the boys grab some drinks, the girls grabbed a table so they could sit down and have some girl talk.
"So Wendy, I don't think I ever met a koopa with a name like Kasanova before. Is he from around here?" asked the female koopa with a green shell.
"Actually, Koren, Kasanova isn't really from around here. You could say I'm showing him around."
"Oh, so he's foreign?" asked Goombaline. "I should have guessed that; he has a cute little accent."
"How did you two meet? I mean, did he ask you out before?" asked the red koopa, Kohana.
"We met the other day under a tree. This is actually how first time going out."
"Under a tree? That sounds pretty romantic." said Koren.
"I'm still a bit surprise you actually manage to find yourself a decent looking koopa." said Pompey. "Tell us, Wend, what's your secret?"
Wendy smirked. "Sorry to disappoint you, Pompey, but a good koopa never reveals her secrets."
Pompey raised an eye brow. "Is that so?" She leaned back against her seat and cross her arms. "Well, I guess I can't be too surprise. This date is probably a one-time thing anyways. It's not like you can actually keep yourself a man without blackmailing them."
Wendy glared at her. "I'll have you know, Pompey, Kasanova willingly agreed to come with me tonight. Plus, I can keep a man… I just don't want one right now."
Pompey smirked. "If that's true, then you wouldn't mind if take Kasanova for myself?"
Wendy frowned. "Why would you want to do that? Aren't you with Boomer?"
She shrugged. "Boomer is nice and all, but he isn't nearly as good-looking as me. I need a koopa whose looks can match up with my own, and Kasanova is that koopa." She raised an eye brow. "If you want, I'll be willing to trade with you, Wendy. My Boomer for your Kasanova, it seems fair doesn't it?"
Before Wendy could give her a response, the boys return to the table with drinks in their hands. Luigi held his two drinks a bit awkward, still getting used to having claws instead of fingers. Once the drinks were on the table, the boys sat down next to their dates.
"So Kasanova," started Pompey. "How did you meet Wendy? Just yesterday, she was still a single koopa."
Luigi thought about it for a moment. "Well, we sort of hook up the other day under this tree, but we kind of known each other for years."
"That's cute. So is this your first date then?" Goombaline asked.
Luigi nodded slowly. The group continues to talk. Luigi remain silent through the conversation unless spoken to. Sometimes they would ask him questions about himself or his 'hook-up' with Wendy. Whenever he couldn't answer a question Wendy would cut in and answer for him. In an effort to make their 'relationship' looked real, Luigi would display small signs of affection toward her such as holding her hand and looking at her fondly. Wendy was confused at first, but she quickly caught on and playing along, blushing only slightly.
Just when it looked like they were in the clear, a popular old party song was turned on, catching everyone's attention.
This is something new
The Kasper Slide part two
Featuring the Platinum Band
And this time, we're gonna get funky!
"Ooh, I know this song." said Pompey "Come on, we should dance. Wendy?"
Wendy was unsure at first, but smiled to the challenge. "Sure, why not."
Pompey smiled back and headed for the dance with Boomer and the others. Wendy stood up and turned to Luigi.
"You think you're up for it?"
Luigi nodded. He knew this song from a few years and its dance moves were simple enough to follow on.
"Let's go then,"
Luigi sat up from his seat and follow Wendy to the dance floor. Many other partiers were joining the floor too, wanting to dance to the well-known song.
Everybody clap your hands
Clap, clap, clap, clap your hands
Clap, clap, clap, clap your hands
Alright now, we gonna do the basic steps
Luigi stood next to Wendy as she and some others started dance on the spot. He had sure he had plenty of room to move around just as the song was nearing through the actual dance part.

To the left
Take it back now y'all
One hop this time

Now it's time to get funky
Everyone on the floor was dancing to the song until near the end where it started to change to another popular song. Everybody clapped to the beat as the second song starts to take over.
Down, down, do your dance, do your dance (we got a brand new dance)
Down, down, do your dance, do your dance (oh oh oh)
Down, down, do your dance, do your dance (yeah yeah)
Down, down, do your dance, do your dance (New style yeah)
They say I'm a rapper, and I say no

To the left, to the left, to the left, to the left
Now kick, now kick, now kick, now kick
Now walk it by yourself, now walk it by yourself
(let me see you do)
After playing both the 'Cheep Cheep Slide' and the 'Koopa Shuffle' (1), the DJ change the music to a slow dance. Some of the partiers return to their seats while others pair up with their partners.
Luigi and Wendy were part of the group that went to sit down, as well as Pompey's date, Boomer. Pompey, however, was still willing to dance. But seeing as her boyfriend wasn't so willing to dance with her, she turn her attention to someone who can. With a sneaky smirk on her face, Pompey walked back to the table and stood in between Wendy and Luigi.
"Well, since Boomer's no longer willing to dance with me, I guess I just have to find another dance partner." She turned to Luigi and smiled. "How about you, Kasanova; would you be willing to dance with me?"
Luigi was hesitant. He really wasn't that good with dancing. He always considered himself to have two left feet. And with his new big koopa feet, he might as well have two left ones.
"Uhm, I don't know. I'm not really that good dancer."
"Ah come on, it would be fun." Pompey argued, grabbing his arm. "Besides, Wendy wouldn't mind if I borrowed you for a little while, wouldn't you Wendy?"
Wendy looked up at her. In truth, she didn't really like the idea of the two dancing together, but the look on Pompey's face told her that she wasn't going to give up easy.
"You can go Kasanova, it's just a dance."
Pompey smiled triumphantly while Luigi looked a bit disappointed. She took his hand and leaded him to the back of the dance floor where Wendy could just barely see them. Once there, Pompey pulled Luigi close to her body and held him in place. Luigi blushed, not really use to being this close to a girl, human or not.
The two dance to the slow music. Luigi try his best not to step on any toes. Pompey had a dreamy look on her face while Luigi just smiled nervously.
"For a not that good dancer, you dance pretty well." said Pompey.
"T-Thanks"
"So Kasanova... how does a fine-looking koopa like you meet a koopa like Wendy?"
Luigi shrugged. "Just luck, I guess."
Pompey looks at him with disbelief. "Right…Look, I don't know just how much Wendy's paying you to do this but you don't have to feel intimidated by her."
Luigi frowned. "What do you mean? Wendy didn't pay me to do this."
Pompey shrugged. "Pay, blackmail, threaten, it doesn't matter to me. All I'm saying is that you don't have to be with her when there's even better koopas, or Pom Poms or that matter, to be around…" she lean into his chest. "…Like me for instant."
"I don't understand."
Pompey sighed. Why are the handsome ones always so dense? She looks up at him. "I mean, ditch Wendy and come with me."
Luigi blinked. "But…Wendy's your friend?"
Pompey scowled. "Wendy's nothing but a no-good spoiled brat. Me on the other hand…" She leaned into him seductively. "…Well, let's just say, if you stick with me long enough, I'll make it worth your wild."
Luigi didn't say anything. It was true Wendy was spoiled and all, but even she doesn't deserve this kind of treatment. Once the music had stop, Luigi gently push Pompey away from him. Pompey looked at him both confuse and a bit bother.
"Thanks for the order, Pompey, but I think I'll pass."
Luigi turn away and headed back to the table as Pompey watched him go with a heated glare.

Ending Note:
1 - The Koopa Shuffle is really the 'Cupid Shuffle' by Cupid, and the Cheep Cheep Slide is really the 'Cha Cha Slide' by DJ Casper. The songs are pretty much the same thing, only a few word change.
