Luigi...and Twilight's Mansion

“You weren't kidding, they have taken over the kingdom!” Egad exclaimed as the three of us took a look around.

The sky was covered in swirling darkness, the houses looked abandoned with planks covering the windows, spider webs went all over the homes and lights but worst of all, there was a castle in the distance that looked like some sort of haunted house, only it was bigger and far more scary.

“So this is your world?” I asked.

“Not even close, this has to be the work of those….g…g..g…ghosts,” Luigi said in a terrified voice.

“Hm, how are we supposed to defeat them then?” I asked as Egad was scratching his chin.

“I have an idea, to the secret lab!” Egad exclaimed as he rushed over to this stone with two levers with me and Luigi followed behind him. “Pull the lever Luigi!” Egad said as Luigi pulled the left lever. Just then, what appeared to be a boulder dropped down and crushed Egad.

“Wrong lever,” Egad said as he quickly shook off the pain for his age.

“Why do you even have that lever?” Luigi then asked.

“Just to keep the lab a secret,” Egad said as Luigi pulled the right lever, and the ground under the three of us opened up and we all fell through. The three of us fell onto a roller coaster cart as the lap-bar locked.

“For your safety, please keep your hands, arms, feet, and legs inside the coaster at all times, now save the world already!” The overcome said as the coaster began to move. It then went downwards at a high speed until it went upside down into a loop and it turned very rapidly a few times before it stopped and flung us off until we landed on our legs.

“That was fun,” I said, still a little dizzy from the coaster.

“Follow me, I have something for you both,” Egad said as me and Luigi followed him into this laboratory, full of gizmos, gears, and gadgets.

“What is this place?” I asked.

“Welcome to my new laboratory, where I build my inventions, test them, and all that jazz,” Egad explained as I looked around.

“You’re an inventor?” I asked.

“Er, something like that,” Egad said as he went over to a door with a lock on it. Egad then plugged in the right code as the door opened and Egad revealed a strange device. This device looked like a backpack with a red color scheme but also had some sort of vacuum attached.

“Is that what I think it is?” Luigi asked.

“It sure is, you’ll need the Poltergust G-00 once more for this adventure,” Egad said as he handed the Poltergust to Luigi.

“What does that device do?” I asked.

“Glad you asked, it’s a device that can suck up ghosts and other monsters as well as a few other things,” Egad explained.

“That sounds like a useful device,” I said.

“Oh, it is, say, Twilight, could you hold still for a moment?” Egad asked as he then held a tape measure around my waist.

“What are you doing?” I asked.

“Getting your measurements so I can make the necessary adjustments,” Egad explained.

“What for?” I asked. A few seconds passed and Egad didn’t say a word until he revealed another device.

“I give you, the Ponygust!” Egad said. This device looked identical to the Poultergust, except it looked like it was made to fit my back like a saddlebag.

“This should be able to fit your back now,” Egad said as he placed the device on my back and it fit perfectly.

“I could get used to this,” I said as I looked at myself in a nearby mirror.

“Now, what’s the plan Egad? How are we going to defeat these ghosts once more?” Luigi asked.

“Simple, you two head to Peach's' Castle, or as I like to call it, Ghost Palace, find King Boo and Hellen, defeat and trap them once more, then we send them away and everything works out,” Egad explained.

“Won’t you be coming along?” I asked.

“I’m afraid due to my age, ghost busting is far beyond me, that’s why I needed Luigi and Goouigi,” Egad said.

“I almost forgot, where is Goouigi?” Luigi asked.

“Last I saw him, Hellen pushed him out of the way, I’ll look for him later, what’s at stake here is getting you two ready,” Egad said.

“Wait, who’s Goouigi?” I asked with confusion.

“A version of myself made out of goo, I’ll explain later,” Luigi said.

“Now, Twilight, I would love to show you all the features of the Ponygust but we don’t have the time for that, now do we?” Egad said.

“I suppose,” I said with a little fear as I felt Luigi’s hand on my back.

“It’ll be ok, I’ll try to show you all the kicks…when I can calm myself down first…” Luigi said as I could also see a lot of fear in his eyes.

“Now, that should be everything to it, as long as nothing happens here, I should be able to contact you two whenever you need help in there, oh, I almost forgot,” Egad said as he tossed what appeared to be a mini-TV into Luigi’s hands and a little red device.

“What’s that?” I asked curiously.

“If you ever need to get back here, that TV will expand, allowing you two to enter with ease and that’s a Virtual Boo, just in case I ever need to call you two, now if we're all ready, you two have the adventure to go on,” Egad said.

“He’s right, let’s save your world!” I said.

“Don’t forget about my brother!” Luigi said as we exited the secret lab and trotted down the dark road, on our way to Ghost Palace.

. . .

“WHAT?? HOW DID LUIGI ESCAPE THAT OTHER WORLD?!” King Boo yelled in anger.

“You really shouldn’t have thrown that silly device away, you know that?” Hellen said with a smug smile.

“Shut up, wait a tic, who is that?” King Boo said as he pointed to this strange, purple horse.

“I’m not sure, whoever she is, she’s with Luigi, which can only mean trouble,” Hellen said.

“I see, then this will be twice as much fun if we can torture two souls this time,” King Boo exclaimed with a little laughter.

“Shall I set the first trap for them, my love?” Hellen asked.

“Set several, this is where the fun begins!” King Boo and Hellen then laughed as Lighting then struck from far away, oh this will be fun.
