The thorny roses part 1
*???'s POV*
''Are you sure that you want to do this?'' Blue asked.
''I'm sure.'' I said. ''Then we can finally show Purple that he is nothing more than a dirty criminal, he can never escape it, no matter how hard he tries to.'' I let out an evil laugh. ''Soon he'll be behind bars, just like the good old times!''
''Then let's pay a visit to the mushroom kingdom.'' White laughed as she hopped onto her motorcycle. ''I've actually missed him a little.''
*Waluigi's POV*
It was four months after mine and Rosalina's wedding. It was currently november and very cold outside. I was walking together with Shawn, Claire and Peach around a big mall, trying to find a good christmas present for Rosalina. But we weren't so sure of what she wanted.
''Maybe something space-themed?'' Claire suggested.
''Like what?'' Shawn asked.
''I don't know!'' Claire shrugged. ''Maybe a necklace with a star or something? I'm not good at coming up with good presents...''
''Why does Rosalina have to be so secretive about what she wants? If she could've just given us a clue or... anything!'' Peach groaned.
''I tried to get some information from her but all she said was ''I don't need anything'' and then just brushed it off.'' I explained.
Peach facepalmed herself. ''That's a very typical Rosalina thing to do.''
Something then caught my eye, a certain man dressed in his usual purple pants and yellow shirt. I went up to him to say hello but when our eyes met I could see a hidden fear inside of him. His hands were clasped together, he continously looked around us every second and his face wore a small worried frown.
''Wario?'' I asked. ''Are you alright?''
He took a few seconds to answer. ''Are you alone right now?''
I got a little confused over his question. ''No...?''
He said that he wanted to talk to me alone for a moment, I sent Peach, Shawn and Claire away and Wario dragged me to a lonely corner where we could talk.
''Okay, can you now tell me what's wrong?'' I asked.
He looked around us for a moment before speaking. ''Waluigi, I've got bad news!''
''Wah?'' I said. ''Bad news?''
He grabbed me by the arms and brought me closer to him while staring at me intensely. ''They're back!''
''Who's back?'' I asked, Wario's expressions made me get very worried.
''You know who!'' He said.
I shook my head and stared confused at him. He released me and pointed at me. ''Purple.'' He then directed his finger to himself. ''Yellow.'' And then he held up four of his fingers and counted them. ''Blue, Red, White and Black!''
Now I immediately understood what he was talking about. ''W-Why?! They said that they would be gone forever!'' I gasped.
''I know, but they're back! We have to do something!''
''Don't worry.'' I said, trying to calm myself. ''I'm working with the police now. I can surely stand up for myself. They're nothing but a bunch of nobodys.''
''Are you crazy?! They'll kill you!'' Wario burst out. ''We're not the only ones that has grown over the years, you know!''
''Wario, I'll fix it. Don't worry about it.'' I said calmly. ''I'll make sure that either you or anyone gets hurt, and no one's going to find out about it. The secret stays with us until we die.''
With that, we parted our ways. I went back to Peach and the others. ''Hey, what was that all about?'' Claire asked.
''Nothing.'' I said. ''Just a... little... brother issue.''
''Alright then.'' Shawn said. ''Then let's just continue with what we were doing.''
We were unable to find a present for Rosalina. In the evening I went home, anxious about what Wario had told me. I couldn't believe it, they were back! The persons I used to call ''friends'' but later realized they were just using me for their own benefits.
*Bark, bark!*
''Hi Chompy!'' I said and hugged the little metal ball. He was happy to see me as always. ''You've been a good boy today? It's christmas soon, so you better watch it.''
He danced around me happily as I went out into the back garden where my piranha plants were planted. They smiled as they could feel my presence and I pet them each one time on the head. ''How's the temperature?'' I asked them.
They made small nods and smiled even more. ''Good.'' I said. ''Seems that the fire dirt is doing its job very well. Now who's hungry?''
They all started chomping, I went into the kitchen and came out with a plate ful of meat pieces. I threw the pieces at the plants and they all tried to catch as much as possible. Chompy tried to get some as well but the piranha plants were too protective of their food and chomped at him if he got too close.
Later I made a sandwich for myself and went to my sofa to just relax for a moment. But I couldn't, Wario's words were just repeating in my head over and over again. ''They're back. They're back.'' It couldn't be true! I though that I had made myself clear that day that they couldn't return to the mushroom kingdom ever again. Apparently they don't listen very well.
This is bad, but I can stop them. I will not let them ruin my life again, and the secret stays between them, Wario and me. Nobody can know about ''Purple'' or ''Yellow''. Not even my closest friends or my own wife.
Okay, calm down me, I think I've made it clear enough that Waluigi has a secret. Now I have to go and get ready for school. ;-; No more freedom for your author, it's going to be horrible! D,X
Anyways, please vote and comment! It keeps me going! Thank you dear dragonreaders!
