In the newly improved Sarasaland panic stirred the people. People ran around screaming as a giant ship cast a large shadow over the mostly dry land. A giant purple beam shot down right in the middle of the castle. Sitting in her throne  with her arms resting on the provided arm rests Princess Daisy raised a brown eyebrow. The beam was 'noisy' and was causing far too much trouble. In the midst of the purple beam black pieces began to come together forming what Daisy could only assume to be an alien and the more it built her suspicions became correct.


The purple beam disappeared leaving an alien creature in it's place.




Daisy scoffed and shooed away her guards. As they scurried off with reluctance the brunette stood, putting a fist into one hand as she leaned her head to one side, a light cracking sound being heard. "Tatanaga...." she spat with a deep glare. "I was hoping I would never see you again."



A deep baritone voice cackled with laughter, the alien creature crossing his arms as he disrespected her just by standing uninvited in her throne room. "Temper temper madame. I've only come to propose a little idea of mine. Surely you'll hear me out."

The brunette gave no response only deepening her glare. Provided however she was indeed listening. 

"Very good. I've come to E-arth not to harm anyone or control your people like I have done before but instead to make you my bride and rule the kingdom and soon enough every kingdom along with it! I will have many wives just like the old kings from the China dynasty." He began cackling again and Daisy could only roll her eyes in disgust.

"You sure have gotten bolder Tatanaga but I must decline. I have no intention of being anyone's wife and only I will rule Sarasaland." The firmness in her tone would force anyone into submission but not Tatanaga, unfortunately. 

"Oh that is too bad." The alien man looked over his shoulder and pulled out a strange device. "I will have to take you by force then. As my hostage every kingdom will back down! This world is too kind to allow me to kill you for the sake of their kingdoms. AHAHAHAHAHAHA" He pulled the trigger of the strange looking gun, the wide barrel shooting out a spiky metal ball attached to a chain. As it attempted to wrap around her the princess placed one gloved hand to the side of her dress to pull it up and then twisted her body for a strong round house kick. The kick held enough strength to launch the spiked ball into the wall on the far side of the room. Daisy...was not pleased.

"You'll have to do better than that to take me this time!" She barked with a hellish look on her face.

"Feisty...just the way I like you!"




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


"PEOPLE OF SARASALAND!" Came a booming voice along with a hologram showing Tatanaga with a tied up, blind folded and cloth gagged Princess Daisy. What one would assume to be war scars from battles in space were actually the after affects of Tatanaga's battle with Daisy. She however although a bit dirty only had one or two bruises on her body. She seemed to do more damage to Tatanaga then he did her but still she had been captured. "I TATANAGA HAVE RETURNED TO RULE THIS LAND. YOU WILL ALL BOW DOWN TO ME OR YOU WILL PERISH! YOU HAVE A TOTAL OF 48 HOURS TO COMPLETELY SUBMIT OR THERE WILL BE CONSEQUENCES. CORONATION WILL TAKE PLACE AFTER THIS 48 HOURS! I WILL BE YOUR NEW KING. HAVE A ROTTEN DAY!" The hologram disappeared leaving nothing but a city cast in darkness by the shadow of the giant alien ship. A chain was the only thing connecting the ship to the land. It rested inside the throne room of the castle and connected to the ship's under belly.


The Princess of Sarasaland has been kidnapped! 

[TartoonHand94]

A lone moustached figure limped out of the Baributo desert into the Sarasaland capital, panting like a dog. His blue overalls, green shirt and hat, once soaking wet and then dried by the angry sun, were stained once again with sweat. Nearly collapsing under a merciful palm tree and completely out of breath, the delirious plumber noticed an extra object providing shade. It was a Save Block. Sweet!
Hitting the conveniently located Save Block replenished Luigi’s health and stamina and even cleaned up his sweat stains.
“Yahay!” Luigi cheered, feeling much better. “Ay!” Luigi called out to a nearby citizen.
“Do you-a know which-a way to the palace? I must-a speak to your princess! It’s-a very urgent! Princess Peach of the Mushroom Kingdom is-”

Luigi’s question was cut off by a booming voice coming from a hologram in the sky.
“Mama Mia…” Luigi moaned, frustrated by the irony a bit. Princess Peach got kidnaped all the time, but last time he counted, Daisy was only kidnapped once. Wait that must mean…Oh no this is bad. Was that?... That’s Tatanga?

“Oh no! Oho nononono! This-a bad! This is-a Very bad! Somebody’s gotta do something! I’m-a gotta save Princess Peach and-a to do that I’m-a gotta save Princess Daisy and-a to do that I’m-a need to get Mario!” Luigi panicked, running in a circle.
“No wait-a minute!” Luigi halted himself on his heels. “There’s-a no time to go all-a the way back and get Mario!” Luigi realized, calculating the travel time back to where he last saw his brother.
“Princess Peach and Princess Daisy need somebody’s help Now!” He decided, pounding his hand with his fist. “B-but who’s help?”

“Wait a sec. It’s you!” the random citizen realized.
“Who? A-me?” Luigi asked, not used to being recognized.
“You’re the guy who saved our leader the last time Tatanga attacked!”
“Oh… Actually, that was-a” Luigi reluctantly had to correct the citizen.
“Luigi!”
“…Eh?” Luigi did a double take. “What? How-?”
“You’re the guy on the statue with her, aren’t you?” the citizen pointed at the big gold statue of Princess Daisy and Luigi holding hands.
“…W-when did...?” Luigi struggled against his extremely flattered surprise to ask.
“Quick! You must come! This way!” the citizen grabbed flustered Luigi by the arm and hauled him to Princess Daisy’s castle.

On the way in, all the guards genuflected in recognition of the great brave Luigi who saved their kingdom long ago. Poor Luigi didn’t have the heart to correct any of them. How did they get that mixed up? What was Daisy telling her kingdom behind his back?

Arriving in the throne room they found no Daisy nor Tatanga, but a giant anchor. Dangling up out of the anchor, rose a chain, leading to a massive space ship that shadowed the entire capital with its size.

“Welp, up you go.” the citizen gladly shoved Luigi up the anchor. “Jump on him once for me, will ya?”[/font]
“Uh-huh o-okidoki…” Luigi nervously agreed. Taking one more breath for courage, Luigi swallowed his fear and began to scale the chain.

[Deleted]

"You know I must say you are definitely bring out the male in fe-male. That was a fun warm up dance. Were you perhaps practicing for the wedding?" Tatanaga ground out between his low chuckles. 

"MMMMPH!!!! YME CEN TE A-" 

"Ahaha that's enough. I know you're excited. I've got good news for you dear princess." The way Daisy's eyebrows furrowed showed her clear disdain even while being blindfolded. The alien man stood in front of the princess, looking down at her with such a high and mighty aura. "I've just sent my...family to invite your people to the big coronation. I have also requested my family members explain that it is also a wedding." The princess's eyebrows raised, the surprise potent and she immediately began struggling again. 

"MMMMMPH!!!" Tatanaga sighed and pulled the cloth down to hear her. "You think you'll get away with this? You kidnapped a princess! AGAIN!" She barked her glare getting deadlier by the second. "Someone will save me and when they do you'll get yet another taste of defeat!" She hissed as she continued keeping her regal tone but allowing her tomboyish ways to slip into her voice giving it a bit of edge. A sword you wouldn't want to be on the other side of was all her words represented. "OOH! You're so lucky I'm tied up! If I wasn't I'd kick your-" Tatanaga pulled the cloth back into place completely muffling the brunettes voice. Even so he had the imagination to guess what she was saying.

"So very feisty. Don't worry princess you'll be a queen soon enough." His deep evil laughter filled the head control room and echoed as the sound bounced off the walls.


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

Creatures both of male and female body types came down from the ship like bees from a hive. These aliens were equipped with rocket boots of technology so advanced it was completely over the heads of any scientist in any kingdom on the planet. In their hands were guns to persuade the people to come together for the wedding/coronation. One of the aliens that came down differed from some others. Only a few of this kind had been seen. She or what we assumed to be a she spotted a figure climbing the chain. Immediately she went to investigate.

[TartoonHand94]

Each of Luigi’s fingers held tight to the chain with all their might as he climbed. As with any beanstalk he or Mario climbed, the trick was to keep your eyes up and not look down, whatever you do. Looking down was the last thing Luigi would want to do. If he had any idea how high off of the ground he was at this very moment…

At least he wasn’t climbing alone. Some ambassadors from the ship were coming down to keep him company. Oh. Wait…
“H-Hey there! Chao! Snazzy jetpacks you got there!” Luigi sheepishly greeted the alien. “You got-a spare?”

“Failed? What-a do you mean failed? I’m-a just started to climb-” Luigi gestured down to show off just how short off the ground he was, only to accidentally look down and realize he was several dozen times higher than he thought.
“Eeep! Mama! Save-a me!” Luigi jumped off the chain and onto the jet packed alien, without first considering the imbalance to the jet pack he may be causing now.

What a strange carbon based life form. Why was it not afraid in the literal face of danger. Was this how the people of this world were? If so...it made sense as to why so many slip ups occurred so often. Princesses slipped through people's fingers and the citizens were in no way battle ready. That much was certain with the display of people simply screaming. None of them grabbed weapons or prepared to take back their princess by force. It was pathetic to say the least. Was there not a single morsel willing to take a stand and fight back? It was understandable as to why Tatanaga wanted to rule this world and all of it's kingdoms. It was far too easy to take over. There was weak resistance if there actually was any.

As she moved closer, reaching her hand out to take Luigi's arm something had shot up straight into her

rocket boots and sent her spiraling down to the top of the castle. This provided Luigi the chance to continue climbing or do otherwise.

[TartoonHand94]

“Gah!” One look at the alien was enough to tell Luigi he had made a big mistake. With the swift nimbleness and sheer disregard for the laws of gravity only a Mario Brother could exhibit, Luigi jumped out of the alien’s arms, sending her straight down to the castle with the momentum lent to her.
“Oopsie. Uh… Sorry!” Luigi called down to her before resuming his climb.

[Deleted]

Where the blast had come from was unknown but the alien woman was far too busy trying to fix her rocket boots to figure out just who had shot at her. At first glance she'd suspect none of the wimpy citizens would even attempt something so bold but could she have been wrong? As she scanned her left boot it came back with only a slight malfunction. After getting the energy flowing back to that portion of her rocket boot she stomped it on the ground. By the time she was airborne once more Luigi had already climbed far up the chain.

"Of course. None of you simpletons can do anything right. Don't bother following him. I'll take care of him when he gets here. Just continue with the plan." Tatanaga growled out in a gruff tone. As the little image of the alien woman dusted away he sighed. He brought his clawed thumb and pointer finger to pinch the bridge of his nose. "Incompetence will be her undoing. Seems you have someone on the way to save you princess...but they won't make it far." The mans laughter filled the main control room causing it to even echo down the halls of the hub. 

The chain of the anchor led to he underbelly of the ship a small opening that led into a very large area of the ship but considerably small compared to the awaiting areas.



The room was filled with alien tech so advanced it looked like a new world. A few mechanics on the ship walked about tending to the giant structure in the middle of the room. One of the others briefly came in to check on the fixes and cast a troubleshoot before leaving through air compressed doors. Luigi would soon find that he had to sneak his way to the door in order to not be caught and alarm the whole ship. 



(The outcome of your choices will affect how this RP shifts and turns! It can be a rocky road or a smooth one! Worst case scenario- someone dies. Good luck!)

[TartoonHand94]

A feat only a Mario Brother whom had already climbed bean stalks up to Coin Heaven could accomplish, Luigi scaled the anchor chain and boarded the Koopa Airship Tatanga’s Space Ship.
Luigi slowly raised his head through the small anchor window into the ship’s underbelly, dreading the security that must be awaiting him. Much to his surprise, the room was empty, save for a plethora of alien technology advanced far beyond his puny plumber mind. The most advanced he’s experienced was the Game Boy Advance. That and assembling all those switches. He and Mario did a lot of odd jobs.

Speaking of odd jobs, two mechanics were coming. Which mean Luigi had to hide! Barrel rolling across, behind the giant structure in the middle of the room, Luigi did his best to keep out of sight. Oh no. Now what was he going to do? Who knows what they would do to him if they caught him? Take him to their leader? ...Or worse? What would Mario if they caught him?

Hmm… If Luigi jumped on one of their heads, he could knock them out and steal their uniforms.
Okay, all he had to do was time it just right. Jump out, surprise them, say ‘Happy Birthday’ and jump on their heads! 3..2...1…Oh wait a minute, they’re leaving. Darn. He missed his chance.

…Or did he? If Luigi could find a way through those air compressed doors on his own he’d be…in the hall where he could get caught again.
If only there were another way out of the room… What if there was! Not the action hero way, but the Plumber way! Through the ventilation tubes! …Did this ship have ventilation tubes?

[Deleted]

Due to the kind of room Luigi was in the only tubes around were carrying foreign liquids to he bottom of the giant structure in the middle of the room. One of the mechanics was still in the room running a diagnosis through his scanner for the machine. He could not be understood since he spoke in alien tongue but his accent sounded as if it would be something from earth.  By examining his surroundings Luigi would soon find many ways to execute many different plans.

.....

Tatanaga sat at his throne, scrolling through a holographic screen with bored eyes. As he looked up he noticed Daisy was on her side...completely immobile. It didn't even look as if she was breathing. "GAH! I thought humans could breathe out their noses as well! Do they really need both to live?!" the alien man asked in a slight panic- to no one in particular. After standing up, posture straight, he made his way over to the possibly dead princess. His hands came down to grab for her shoulders and pick her up. She was limp! He held her in one arm so he could use his other hand to pull down the fiber cloth covering her mouth.

Daisy grit her teeth and moved her head back only to bring it forward painfully hard. The sound of her headbutt executing was loud and painful even to hear. Tatanaga dropped her as he staggered back, eyes glaring daggers at the woman thrashing about on the ground. "You little...hmph. Your actions will come with consequences Princess!" he sneered out through his hands. As he removed them a crack could be seen on his lower lip, purple glowing from the wound. 

"I'm going to get out of here and I will take you down before I do!"  the short haired brunette yelled as she proceeded to thrash about but her restraints did not come loose. Her efforts although commendable were in vain. 

"We'll see about that princess."

[TartoonHand94]

Before Luigi could find a way into the tubes carrying the foreign liquid to the bottom of the giant structure in the middle of the room, he noticed there was one more mechanic left in the room.
There was still one more in there with him. If only there a way he could just throw his hat at him and take over his body. But that’s just crazy talk. Spooky, the more he thought about it. But perhaps he could still try jumping on him and stealing his key. One would make an easier target that two, wouldn’t it?

“To save the princess.” Luigi whispered to himself, taking one more deep breath of courage. He crouched down and jumped out from behind the central structure, and before he could properly bound out at the mechanic, Luigi tripped on the uneven floor and hurled himself in a somersault straight for the alien. Upon impact, he knocked them both into one of the fluid tubes, fracturing it and sending foreign gas fuming into the air and filling the room.

Oh no! What had Luigi done? This blunder’s guaranteed to set off the alarm for sure!

[Deleted]

The sudden noise had alerted many on the ship  including the Alien Luigi had basically boot leg, green missiled. "Ε̣̣̮ίͅͅν͈͙̥͘α͇̪͙̼̝̗͠ι̡̼̱̥̼͎͍ͅ ̣̻̹̙̼̪͉έ̫̗͔ν̝̫͉̜̫̭͞α̜̤ ̭͓̘̜͎̦λ͖͙̦̜͍͚α̜̲̼̪γ̝̦̠͡ο̡̻̞͎͎͙ύ̳͇̱̻̀ρ͉̯͖͔̹̹ͅι͜ ͙͖͉ͅτο͏̳̥̝͎υ̣̰ ̭͍̟͢σ͎έι̮̦̼̟̻̹̖κ͏̭!" it cried out in it's surprise. It was a lean male who would probably be the equivalent of Luigi except taller, and alien. Seems designs were recycled somewhere.


Hey! No breaking the fourth wall!  As the gas filled the room the alien pushed the green plumber off to try to get the damage under control. This kind of job was dangerous so he came with a gas mask...but Luigi would not be so fortunate. This gas for humans was the equivalent of tear gas. Fortunately, it was nothing more than that. In a way he had lucked out. The alien man had pulled out the welding machine from the wall and welded the leaking pipe down, even managing to put it back on track. Although the problem had been resolved a few more aliens had poured into the room.  Most of them were looking at the newly put down pipe and already seemed to be criticizing the execution of forcing the gas back into it's proper flow. The others were all eyeing the green bean.

Their leader pointed two of his three fingers towards Luigi without even opening his mouth and two different aliens with identical antennas mirrored one another as they marched towards Luigi. Their eyes were a very deep aqua and their facial structures were similar to a humans except for the downward pointing ears. Their skin came as a light gray with dark gray accents. 

---

Tatanaga  watched from his holographic screen as the people of Sarasaland were persuaded  into going to the wedding/coronation. It was a beautiful sight if he had ever seen one. "Wonderful." he gave a raspy yet still deep chuckle and turned his glowing eyes to the princess who still hadn't given up on escaping.

[TartoonHand94]

“Are you okay?” Luigi asked, stumbling up to his feet and offering a hand to help the alien up.
What? Oh no! The pipe! Oh no! The gas! Oh Wait! There’s a chance of escaping now! Luigi realized he could use this smoke screen as a cloak to slip through the door of the room undetected.

Unfortunately, as he was making his way out, back up was making it’s way in. Luigi was found, worse so cornered, even worse so, caught. Or was he? There were only two of the aliens coming to check on him, nothing a good double jump couldn’t handle.

And in a more coordinated echo of what Luigi just did, he quickly Green Missiled between the two aliens, through the door and sprited down the hall to his left. Because always trust the L on an alien space craft.

[Deleted]

As things in the city of Sarasaland settled down, people were escorted to their homes and encouraged...at gun point to resume daily life. However, the people of sarasaland were overly frightened and had a bit of trouble even with persuasion. There was tension in the air and an overall gloom that hung over each person, or perhaps it was the air. Buying from the market was not as relaxed as normal. People scurried about to get the things they needed and returned home with haste. Right along with these events on the other side of town the aliens were having trouble with what they had reported to be a flame demon walking among  the citizens. From what was reported it was said that it could not possibly be human nor of a race they had ever seen before, it's hair whipped viciously and it's color seemed to be as red as the fire burning around it. 

Fire Megami. Their blasters were disintegrated and all attacks were met with unforgiving flames. Even the most fire idiotant of armors could not fight against the fiery flames that burned  so hot it could be equivalent to the sun. The people bowed down in praise for the being. They had talked amongst themselves about the flame demon that came when a crisis befell the land. Now those rumors seemed to be true for; it had not attacked the citizens, only the aliens and it kept on a very slow pace towards the castle. When it first arrived it took on a simple flaming shape of a human.

 

When it made it half way through the city the fire morphed into something more complex. The shape of a woman.



This deity or goddess whatever she may have been must have been a fail safe if the princess did not manage to get herself out of whatever trouble was presented to her. It made sense especially after being kidnapped all those years ago. Hell had risen from it's sleep...and it was walking Sarasaland.....

---

The tear gas seemed to have no effect on Luigi as he slipped through it with ease and even bounced on top of the Aliens who want to cease him. That is what one might think at first. However fitting for the style of a Mario like adventure it would instead take away one power up. With his escape and loss of a power up he would find himself among many aliens who all scurried about to work and a few guards would walk the perimeter in a very simple pattern. It was a spacious place indeed. Very fitting for a giant ship like this.


There were many ways to get caught and few ways to escape. It was up to Luigi to figure out how to creatively make a sneaky escape.

---

Tatanaga scrolled through the holographic screen with a bored look in his glowing purple orbs. There was nothing of interest going on as far as he could see. The people calmed down and in some form had accepted him being here. That was a start. Luckily for him he hadn't been interrupted by a certain princess since she had been taken to get her dress put on. He knew the kind of woman she was so sent her with his strongest female members and they took good care of her. 

An intermission came in but the audio was very distorted. "Fire? Aid?" the alien leader questioned with a raised, cracked eyebrow. "Can my people not even put out a simple fire? What has become of my crew? So weak...." he grunted in disdain and prompted to see the whole of sarasaland to figure out just what the problem was. "What's this?" He zoomed in to a fiery figure over on the northern side... this was not good.

[TartoonHand94]

Fleeing to the left of the tear gas chamber, the first thing he noticed was that everything about the hallway seemed abnormally massive, even for an alien space craft. His moment of marvelling was interrupted by a twitchy feeling in his nose. He sneezed, but, like a gentleman, he kept it in his elbow. Upon seeing his elbow, however, he realized that tear gas had more of an effect on him than he thought.

It was small! His elbow was small! His hand was small! He was small! Breathing the tear gas caused him to lose a hit point and become Small Luigi. As opposed to Mini Luigi who can run on water and stuff, Small Luigi was half his size and twice as vulnerable. Any good hit will be enough to put him down.

He had to get out of here. He had to turn back and grab a mushroom before going any further. But there was no way he’d go back into that room. Only aliens awaited him in there and they would not be happy to see him again. In fact, they were probably actively looking to see him again. He had to keep moving and hide before they caught up. Frantically looking to see the closest crevice to hide in, Luigi ducked down under a staircase and tried to think.

What was he going to do about his height problem? Being the taller Mario brother was all he had. Now he’s even shorter than Mario. Speaking of Mario, what would he do in this predicament? It wasn’t unusual that he’d run off to save the princess without arming himself with a mushroom first. Normally he’d pick one up on the way. So, what should Luigi do? Look around for a floating question mark block? Beat up one of the aliens and see if they dropped one? The latter didn’t sound like a good idea. Not only did he not know whether or not they’d drop a mushroom at all, let alone a super mushroom instead of some poison alien one, these guys all looked pretty tough when you’re as small as he was.

Wait a minute. He was small. Small enough to hide under the stairs. Maybe he was small enough to use his size to his advantage. Given the overall design aesthetic of this place, there’s bound to be more nooks and crannies he could hide in. All he had to worry about was not being seen crossing from one to the other.

Not being seen was definitely going to be the hard part. There were many aliens scurrying all around to get from one job to another. Not to mention the guards on patrol. They seemed to all follow a very strict and orderly pattern. As predictable as a Red Koopa Troopa. Memorizing this pattern from his hiding place was the first thing Luigi did.

Now armed with a good idea of the size of his windows of time between each guard’s passing, the civilians more erratic patterns were next. One thing he and Mario learned the hard way is to pay attention to your enemies. And paying close attention to all these aliens, Luigi noticed that they weren’t paying attention. Not to each other and not to their surroundings. Their focus was only on where they were going next and how they would get there. If Luigi could keep behind each of them and stay out of their line of sight, the others in the hall wouldn’t notice him with their colleagues’ alien bodies in the way.

Okiedoki! Luigi knew how he was going to get to the princess. What he didn’t know was where she was. How would he get there if he didn’t know the way? How would he find the way? Would he ask the aliens if they knew the way? They didn’t seem to know English, or Italian for that matter so he might have to ask them if they knew the way in their native tongue. What was their native tongue? Clicking noises? Luigi guessed this was going to be a matter of guess work.

Drawing yet again from his and Mario’s past experiences in fortress after fortress after castle, the big bad boss was always in the highest, most central, most important looking room in the building. So that’s what Luigi had to look for. Stairs, elevators and rooms that looked important. That was the way. Long live the brothers.

Going up some stairs huh? Well the first pair of stairs he could find were the ones he was hiding under. So, with the natural timing to dodge some random by passers, Luigi ran around and up the stairs he was under. The flow of traffic was erratic and unpredictable, unfortunately, and all too soon, Luigi had to jump out of the way and hide from aliens coming the opposite way down the stairs. Yikes! Gotta move! Gotta go! Gotta get out of the way! Jumping over the railing, Luigi unwittingly landed in a trolley that an uninterested looking alien was pulling behind him. Or her. Luigi didn’t have time to tell. Their gender wasn’t important, what was important was where they were going. Did they know the way?

Tatanaga watched as the fire woman laid waste to his people. Despite the intrusion the fire woman wasn't actually killing anyone, just burning away their weapons and armor, leaving them defenseless and easy to fight for the citizens of Sarasaland. "Princess! Explain this!" Tatanaga roared in absolute disbelief. The video feed was absolutely unbelievable! He swiveled his finger in a circle and the video turned to the Princess who had sat up a while ago so she was at least comfortable.  


"Huh?" The questioning voice came out as she wasn't sure what she was looking at. 

"That fire THING right there! What's the meaning of it?!" Tatanaga practically screamed but his voice was leveled, low and more demanding. The princess of Sarasaland gave a thoughtful look to it before something finally popped up in her mind. 

"Ohoho! Last time you kidnapped me and I was returned to my castle I received word that extra protection would ensure my safety- so if you think you're going to get away with this you're super duper wrong! That look on your stupid face says you already know what's going to happen to you!" 

Tatanaga growled and forced the screen back to his self. "I will take care of it." He pulled up a terminal from the side of his throne and turned a few of the holographic gears and knobs and then began speaking. "All forces cease your encouragement of the people. Focus on the fire beast that roams Sarasaland. Do not leave until it is destroyed!" Tatanaga pushed the terminal away and it dissolved into pixels and then into nothing. "Let's see how long your little defense mechanism will last." The alien man began to chuckle deeply.

The woman pushing Luigi was going to the waste room but she was halted and told to go carry out another task. The little carrier he was in was left unattended for quite some time. The other aliens on the ship who were near Luigi were dozens upon dozens of workers and a few guards were scattered here and there. Another worker would be coming to carry out the task of the other alien woman soon. Luigi only had a limited time to get moving. Now that he was on the upper level there were glowing lights streaming everywhere. The mainest one with a purple light went right down the middle of the open area and was accompanied by lights of ocean blue and various others. All of the lights traveled in different directions in the little tubes they were in but they lined the metallic ground and the walls. The guards would stop near the little carrier cart Luigi was in to chat and then they would look around for anyone out of line.

The chatting would cease during their next round but beyond that they still would still carry out their respective jobs. It was time for Luigi to be creative again!
