Mr. L POV

Luigi turned pale and fainted when I said it. Geez, get a grip, man! Why is he so weak? I pinched the bridge of my masked nose. Why is he so hard to deal with? I sighed. He groaned as I picked him up, and I disappeared into the forest, making my way to the mountains, where my secret cave was. I was taking Luigi with me.

Luigi POV

I woke up. I was in a strange cave in the mountains. All I could remember was passing out when Mr. L told me...

Mr. L! He kidnapped me! I realized I was in ropes, strapped to a chair, in an empty room. Classic. He's gotta think up new ideas for kidnapping wake-up spots.

Mr. L stepped out of the shadows. Typical. I growled and gave him yet another death stare.

Mr. L: You know, I didn't want to do this. But, you left me no choice. Now... I want you to answer some questions, and then, beg for mercy.

He pulled out a machete. I felt the color drain from my face. Was he going to kill me?!

Luigi: P-Please...M-Mr. L...d-don't d-do t-t-this to m-me...p-please...

Mr. L smiled mischievously. Oh no, I thought. He IS thinking about it...or is he teasing me? Mr. L tilted his head at me.

Mr. L: What? I was just gonna polish it...I'm saving it for later...

I gasped. He's gonna.....no. Just no. No no no no no. NO.

Mr. L laughed at me. Did he seem...satisfied?

Mr. L: Wow, that got dark! No, I'm not gonna use it on someone! I'm using it to chop firewood

Luigi: ...Oh.

Mr. L: *Cracks up* Messing with you is too fun, Luigi! Man, I just can not leave you alone, now can I? Teasing you is too easy!

Luigi: Well...well....messing with you is too easy! You want proof?

Mr. L crossed his arms and raised an eyebrow.

Mr. L: I'd LOVE to see you try, Luigi.

Luigi: Well, for starters....um.... y-your robots are too easy to beat! Mario beats you every time! No matter how hard you try, he will always beat you! YOU are the weak one, you stupid imbecile!

Mr. L opened his mouth opened like he wanted to say something, but he closed it and shook his head at me. Yes! I thought. Got him! Finally, I'm not the speechless one!

Mr. L: Well, I will give you THAT one... 

Mr. L looked away. I didn't mean to hurt his feelings...wait. Do demons even have feelings? 

Apparently.

I shook my head. 

Luigi: I...I'm sorry...I-

Mr. L: Don't. I do not deserve your pity - no, wait. I don't deserve ANY pity. 

I saw tears form in his eyes as he dropped his arms to his sides and seemed very interested in his shoes. Then he shook his head, and his vulnerability vanished into thin air.



Mr. L isn't everything he pretends to be...
