Luigi, Yoshi and Fluttershy's EPIC adventure!

Chapter 8: The Ambush

As the Fire Bro. surprised the heroes, the little Koopa army got to their positions to attack the shocked trio. They were clever, using Mario and the Toads as bait. The only thing Luigi remembered after being steamed down by fireballs, frozen by iceballs and being totally smashed down by Boom Boom, was him and his friends being robbed by the Ice Bros. and getting captured in a nearby Fortress at the exit of the Everfree.

"Ahh, uhhh... It hurts... Eh? Where am I?" Luigi said weakly, as all of his body was aching.

At his sides where Yoshi and Fluttershy, both in the same conditions as Luigi.

"F-Fluttershy... Yoshi... wake up..." Luigi mumbled. His only response was a little 'Mmm, uhh... ow...' from both.

"Shut up, prisoner!" The same Fire Bro. who surprised them in the Everfree shot a fireball at Luigi's face, but only managed to hit his cheek. But it still hurts.

"Ouch!" Luigi managed to scream in pain.

"Are you hungry?" An Ice Bro. asked Luigi in a rather polite tone.

"Shh! Don't be nice to prisoners!" The Fire Bro. yelled at the Ice Bro. causing him to flinch. The yell caused Fluttershy and Yoshi to wake up.

"Uhhh... Where are we?" The two asked in unisone.

"Okay cousin, just wanted to be a little nice since we almost killed those three..." The Ice Bro. shyly said.

"Are we in prison, Luigi?" Fluttershy asked with wide , innocent eyes, almost heartbreaking.

"Uhh, in fact, I think this is a Fortress." Luigi answered.

"And why they were yelling?" Yoshi said.

"The Ice Bro. wanted to be nice." Luigi said.

"Uhhh... I'm so hungry..." Fluttershy said with watery eyes.

"Let's ask them for some food. Woah! They think our power ups are food? Fluttershy, I have an idea..." Luigi whispered to Fluttershy.

"Tell me about," Fluttershy whispered back.

"Let's trick' em." Luigi said with a grin.

"How?" Fluttershy asked.

"With your cuteness, ask them for 3 Fire Flowers, and when we eat them, they will pay." Luigi said.

"Ok, let's do this." Fluttershy said.

In Canterlot Castle...

"Where are Luigi and the others? I'm worried." Luna said with a trembling voice.

"Don't worry Luna, they are for sure good." Celestia said with a smile.

.......................................................................................................................................................................

"Oh, mister Fire Bro., we are so hungry, could you please give us some flowers?" Fluttershy said wide eyed while Luigi and Yoshi nodded.

"Yeah, sure. Bon Appetit." The Fire Bro. threw three Fire Flowers to the heroes.

'Good, good, now eat the flower and...' Luigi thought.

The others already ate it and turned into their fire forms: Fluttershy had a white coat and red mane and tail, Yoshi didn't change at all, but he could spit deadly fireballs.

'Oh, they already got into the plan...' Luigi thought. He ate his Fire Flower also, and his attire changed into the one we already know: green overalls, white shirt and white hat.

The Fire Bro. didn't noticed the changes, but he heard a familiar sound: a fireball being thrown. He was at the edge of panic.

"Boom Boom! Call the others! We accidentally gave the prisoners fire flowers!" The Fire Bro. alerted.

"Attention! Attention! Get the prisoners back!!" Boom Boom said with his usual low pitched, raspy voice.

"Fiuf! Made it!" Said Luigi as he and the other two destroyed the cell they where trapped in.

"So, Luigi, how does this work?" Fluttershy asked Luigi.

"Extend your hoof, then make a throwing motion." Luigi answered.

"Okay, now, wow! I launched a fireball!" Fluttershy said as a nearby bush turned into ashes.

"Pretty good for a begginer!" Luigi said happily.

Fluttershy gave Luigi a cute smile.

"Ummm, dude, I think we should run!" Yoshi said as the koopas chased the heroes.

"Use your new powers!" Luigi ordered.

And so they did. It was an epic, savage chase. Fireballs rained down, iceballs froze things, some guy destroying bricks, coins flying everywhere, Fluttershy, Yoshi and Luigi kept escaping, and, by each launching a fireball and merging them, they made a super fireball enough to dispatch the army.

"Yeah! Fire Yoshi rules!" Yoshi said as he imited a dragon, spiting flames and fireballs everywhere.

The others smiled, rolled their eyes and continued walking, still in their fire forms.

Next stop: Canterlot Castle. The trio gave out a relieved sigh.

..........................................................................................................................................................................................

Some dudes, an Ice and a Fire Bro., cousins, where watching the semi-destroyed Fortress, while keeping the ice blocks containing Mario and the Toads.

They were a little dumb, as their plans always got someone or something (most probably SOMEONE) destroyed.

"So, Albert, dude, as you are the intellectual here, what's your plan? The Fire Bro. asked to the Ice Bro., whose name was Albert.

"Uh, I don't know Ernest, throwing the guys to the water?" Albert the Ice Bro. answered to Ernest, the Fire Bro.

"Uhh, yeah, I don't mind, as every one of our plans always get someone or something screwed. So, what could possibly go wrong?" Ernest said.

"Right, dude. Let's go then." Albert said as he shrugged.

They kept walking with the ice blocks, miles and miles, until they saw a beach-lakeside area and a sign pointing to the great beach-lake, reading: 'Sparkling Waters Beachside Area'.

"They also have their own version of the Sparkling Waters territory?" Ernest scratched his helmet.

"I don't mind. It's just a mere coincidence." Albert shrugged at the coincidence.

As they threw the four ice blocks with the remaining heroes into the water, they had the same thought stuck in their heads: 'What could possibly go wrong?'

...

Everything.
