Luigi...and Twilight's Mansion
Chapter 2: Siding With A Pony
Previous ChapterNext ChapterMeanwhile…in another universe…
It was a beautiful day outside. The sun was shining bright as ever, the birds were chirping with cheer, and I was just waking up to this lovely day. I got up from my bed and trotted among the walls of my crystal castle. Nothing too special happened as I entered the kitchen and grabbed some breakfast.
Oh, right. I forgot to introduce myself. I’m Twilight Sparkle, Princess of Friendship, but I think you know all about that. It was just a few days ago since me and my friends defeated Tirek and this castle grew out of the ground thanks to the six-sided chest. So far, this new castle has been pretty alright, it may not feel like home just yet but I’m trying my best to make it work, say, I needed to do a little bit of shopping for the castle, maybe that would make it feel like home, ever so slightly that is.
I grabbed my bag from my room and just like that, I was heading to Ponyville to shop, that’s when something unexpected happened. As I was trotting into the streets of Ponyville, I saw something odd in the sky. I’ve seen many weird things before, like Nightmare Moon escaping from the moon, Discord’s seeds growing from the ground and things like that but this was odder than those. In the sky, there was this portal, and just when I looked into it, two…creatures came out of it.
They looked awful like the humans from the other world I’ve visited before but these humans looked vastly different. I couldn't tell what they looked like yet but right as they appeared, they began to fall to the ground. Without even thinking, I jumped off the ground and started flying towards them as fast as I could. It took a lot of my strength but I was able to catch both of them, along with this weird device that I overlooked before. I took them down to the ground as they seemed to be pretty unconscious.
I had no better option on what to do with them so I quickly rushed back home, maybe to see where they came from. Once I arrived back at my castle, I very quickly laid them down in the living room on the ground, waiting for them to wake, which happened sooner than expected. I thought it would take minutes, hours, and days when it took a few seconds for the two of them to open their eyes.
“Mama Mia…what….what happened?” One of the creatures said. This creature wore blue overalls with a green shirt, blue pants, brown shoes, and a green hat with an L.
“You’re awake!” I said as I helped the green creature sit up.
“What happened? Where am I? Who are you?” The green creature asked as I noticed fear in his voice.
“Calm down, I’m not going to hurt you,” I said.
“What is this place? Who are you?” The green man said.
“I’m Twilight Sparkle, this is my castle,” I said as I introduced myself.
“Well It’s a pleasure to meet you, Twilight, I’m Luigi and this is,” Luigi said as he pointed to the other creature.
“Great Scott, what happened?” The other creature asked as he then woke up. He was wearing what appeared to be a lab coat, very round glasses, and was much shorter than me and Luigi.
“Egad, thanks the superstars you’re alright,” Luigi said as he helped this Egad up.
“Say, where are we? This doesn’t look like the Mushroom Kingdom?” Egad asked.
“That’s because it isn’t, you’re both in the land of Equestria,” I said. I won’t forget the look on Egad’s face as even with his big glasses, his face changed from confusion to a mixture of fear and happiness.
“That must mean my device worked, after all, this is an entirely new dimension!” Egad exclaimed with joy.
“That explains why I’ve never seen humans such as yourself before,” I said. “Still, if I may ask, how did you two get here?” I asked.
“Well, I was testing out a new portal device I created. I was trying to send these dangerous ghosts into another world until they escaped and sent me into another world, presumably this one,” Egad explained.
“What, were those ghosts….K..K…K..Ki…King Boo and Hellen Gravely?” Luigi asked as he shook with fear.
“Don't tell me they took my device and used it against you as well,” Egad said.
“Yes they did,” Luigi said.
“This isn’t good, not only do they have that device, there’s no way we can get back to our universe without it!” Egad said with panic.
“You mean this device?” I asked as I picked up the weird device when they first arrived.
“Jimmy Christmas, you found the Switchverse!” Egad said as I handed him the Switchverse.
“It appeared when I first found you two here,” I explained.
“I can’t thank you enough, now we can get back home and defeat King Boo and Hellen once more!” Egad said as he set the device down.
“Wait, Egad, there’s more that I didn’t mention yet,” Luigi said.
“What’s that old boy?” Egad asked.
“King Boo and Hellen have Mario and Peach, I’m pretty sure he’s already taken over the Mushroom Kingdom by now,” Luigi said.
“WHAT?” Egad exclaimed with panic. “He has your brother and the kingdom? Do you know how difficult it’ll be to stop the two of them now?” Egad asked loudly.
“I think I have an idea,” Luigi said.
“We’re gonna need backup, serious backup, only issue? We have no backup,” Egad said defeatly.
“Well, who are we going to call?” Luigi asked.
“You know, I have experience when it comes to fighting evil spirits,” I said.
“You do?” Egad said as he took a good look at me, "Well, we do need all the backup we can, do you think you would be up for an inter-dimension adventure?” Egad asked.
“I would love to! I haven’t fought a villain in a little while,” I said.
“It’s settled then, let me get the Switchverse up and running,” Egad said as he pushed a button, and after a few seconds, another portal opened up. It looked so much cooler to see it closer than before.
“Well, we've got a kingdom to save, Let’s-A-Go!” Luigi said as the three of us stepped through the opened portal, ready for the adventure we were about to have.
