Chapter 6: The Hostage Situation

03:06, 15 December 2024

Luigi: Listen, don't kill us please!

Courtney: Why shouldn't I?! Pomni is the one who flattened my Baby!

Luigi: P- Please... put that Knife down!

Courtney: Don't worry... I won't stab you to Death!

Luigi: Look, I think I know what's going on here... this is about Revenge, isn't it?!

Courtney: Revenge?!

Luigi: You lost the Case... and now, you're looking for Revenge!

Courtney: You're clever, aren't you?!

Luigi: You just don't give up, do you?!

Courtney: You're right... I don't give up! And, I'm gonna tell you a little story!

Luigi: Oh Jesus!

Courtney grabbed a Chair and sat down.

Courtney: When I was a little Girl... I always had Rage fits whenever someone was annoying me, I would beat the living crap out of someone, if someone was picking on me.

Luigi: Would you?

Courtney: Whenever there was a situation between me & another person... I will always never give up until I win a fight.

Luigi: You never gave up?

Courtney: During my youth... I kept framing other students and in the end, they always got blamed! And, I always lose a battle but I always win a War in the end.

Luigi: You were evil during your youth!

Courtney: These things happened with my own Parents, as well... whenever I wanted a Gift that looked like I wanted it right away... they said; No! And, do you know what I did in response?

Luigi: I assumed you threw a Temper Tantrum, because Kids are usually dramatic during those scenarios.

Courtney: No, actually... whenever I was a Self-transporter, I kept stealing Money & Credit Cards behind my Parents' Backs... and every time I got caught, I would sneak out of the Window and I would secretly steal Gifts that I wanted! And, I always got away and I never got caught while I was getting chased by Security Guards.

Luigi: Was your best friend; Veruca Salt?

Courtney: And, because of those things that I had to put up with... I promised myself that if I had a little kid of my own... I would never, ever say No to my own kid.

Luigi: And, I suppose you were also Pen Pals with Donny.

Courtney: Who the hell is Donny?

Luigi: The Maniac who stole a magical talking Teddy Bear that sounds like Peter Griffin.

...

Courtney: Then... Mikey was born, and it was just me & Mikey by ourselves!

Courtney stood up and slowly approached Luigi & Pomni.

Luigi: *gulp*

Courtney: But, suddenly one day... Mikey was about to cross the Road, he was looking both ways before crossing... until... BANG!!!

Luigi: AHH!!!

Pomni: *muffles*

Courtney: Some Maniac decides to flatten my Boy to Death, and the Driver didn't pay attention to the Road... my little Boy didn't make it, he died from his injuries! And now, I'm promising Mikey that I will finish the job for him.

Luigi: And, do you know what happened next?! The Driver was found; Not Guilty... and the Vicious Mother lost!

*PUNCH*

Luigi: OUCH!!!

Courtney: I'm making my dead son, proud.

Pomni: *muffles*

*RIPS TAPE*

Pomni: AHH!!!

Courtney: Who murdered my Boy, Pomni?

Pomni: IT... WASN'T... MURDER!!!

Luigi: Yeah... Justice has already been served, and Pomni won the Case!

Pomni: Dear Lord... what a sad little life, Courtney.

Luigi: What are you gonna do, now?! Kill us?!

Courtney: Not right now! My plan is simple.

Pomni: W- What plan?!

Courtney: When the Sun rises... I'm gonna make sure that your disgusting friends watch you burn to the Ground!

Pomni: W- What?!

Courtney: Let's see how they feel when they'll lose someone they loved!

Luigi: Did you say... BURN to the Ground?!

Pomni: You can't do this!

Courtney: Yes I can... I'm gonna win this fight!

Pomni: No, you're not... you're gonna lose! The Police are already on to you, and you're the one who is gonna lose!

Courtney: Did you not hear what I said? I never got caught by Security Guards when I was stealing.

Pomni: THAT'S NOT THE SAME!!!

Luigi: Look, if you're gonna set Fire to this Cafe... then, why do you need me here for?!

Courtney: No witnesses!

Luigi: *gulp* Oh dear God!

Courtney: I'm off to the Toilet.

Courtney went away.

Luigi: Oh God... we're gonna die!

Pomni: Someone help us!

Meanwhile...

Mr. Monitor: How are you feeling?

Auri: I'm fine... it's just a bash on the Head, and that's it! But, I gotta keep this Ice Pack on me to get rid of the pain.

Chief: What on Earth were you playing at, Auri?! You were involved in a situation whilst you were Off-duty... and look at you now!

Auri: Look, I was trying to get Luigi back to the Hospital... when Tragedy struck.

Chief: You chased a suspect whilst you were Off-duty!

Auri: I know.

Chief: Listen, I want you to get some rest... we're gonna find that corrupt Woman, with or without your help!

Auri: Yes, sir.

Auri went away.

Mr. Monitor: Any updates on Bradley McJumper?

Chief: Doctors are saying that he's taking some time out... which means, he's asleep.

Mr. Monitor: Right.

Chief: Also, we contacted the Manchester Police to try calling Princess Peach... but, I reckon she switches off her Phone every night before going to sleep.

Mr. Monitor: I see.

Chief: So... the Manchester Police is gonna try knock on her front Door, instead.

Mr. Monitor: I bet she's gonna go insane when she hears the News at this time of Night.

Chief: I think so too.

A FEW HOURS LATER...

Luigi: Oh God... she's gonna kill us!

Pomni: We have to escape!

Luigi: How?! I've been trying to rip these Tapes off with my Strength... the Tape is strong like Flex Tape!

Courtney: You two still awake?

Pomni: I'm falling asleep.

Luigi: There's a Clock, over there.

Courtney: Do you want a Medal or something?

Luigi: It's 4:00 in the Morning.

Courtney: Thanks, Captain Obvious.

...

Pomni: I'm so tired.

Luigi: Me too.

Pomni: This might be our final Night, being alive!

Luigi: Are you actually gonna kill us?!

Courtney: Not until the crack of Dawn.

Luigi: We're gonna die!

Pomni: Oh God...

Luigi: Listen Pomni... I love you! You know that, don't you?!

Pomni: I do.

Luigi: If we die, later... we can role-play our Future Wedding.

Pomni: Yes!

Luigi: Pomni, do you take Luigi as your lawfully wedded Husband?

Pomni: I do... and Luigi, do you take Pomni as your lawfully wedding Wife?

Luigi: I do!

Courtney: You two are gonna make me puke.

Luigi: We're Husband and Wife, now!

Pomni: I love you, Luigi.

Luigi: I love you too.

Courtney: GET TO SLEEP!!!

Luigi: Y- Yes, Ma'am...

Courtney: The SMG4 Crew will have Front row Seats for your execution!

Pomni: This is gonna be Murder, you know!

Courtney: Don't worry, sweet-heart... you Murdered my Boy, and you were found; Not Guilty! If I murder you, I'll be found; Not Guilty!

Luigi: What about the other Crimes you committed?! Kidnapping?! GBH?! Harassment?! Theft during your youth?!

Courtney: Like I said before... I was never caught!

Courtney went away.

Luigi: Where are you going?!

Pomni: Maybe, she's got more instruments of Torture!

Courtney came back.

Luigi: What are you doing with that Frying Pan?!

Courtney: Good Night, sleep tight...

*BONK*

Pomni: 😵

Courtney knocked Pomni out.

Luigi: POMNI!!!

Courtney: Don't let the Bed Bugs bite!

*BONK*

Luigi: 😵

She also knocked Luigi out.

Courtney: I'm getting ready, Mikey... I know you're proud of me.

It was now Daytime...

Radio: Good morning... it's 7:00am on Sunday 24th November 2024, and you're listening to your local Radio Station!

Auri: *SIPS COFFEE*

Radio: Our top story this Morning is that it appears that Courtney Starling has faked her own Death... Else-where, there was a RTA, later that Night... Police believe that 'Digital Circus' Star; Pomni Jester was abducted by Courtney Starling... Pomni was found; Not Guilty, of running over Mikey Starling, back on Friday.

Auri switches the Radio off.

Auri: *SIPS COFFEE*

He then finished his Coffee.

Auri: I barely got enough sleep... I'm off to the Showgrounds, to tell the others about Luigi & Pomni.

Back at the Cafe...

Pomni: *muffles*

Luigi: *wakes up* H- Huh?!

Pomni: *muffles*

Luigi: W- What the...

Courtney: Wakey wakey... rise and shine!

Luigi: W- What's all this?! Petrol?!

Courtney: You like your exciting surprise?!

Luigi: What's that hissing noise?! And, it smells like Gas!

Courtney: Must be coming from the Cookers in the Kitchen!

Luigi: You're crazy... you're gonna blow up the whole Cafe!!!

Courtney: It's time for my show to start!

Luigi started to freak out.

Luigi: Come on, Courtney... don't do this!

Courtney: Sorry, I have to... this is a Message for my little Boy!

Pomni: *muffles*

*RIPS TAPE*

Pomni: AHH!!!

Courtney: Any last words?!

Pomni: GO TO HELL!!!

Courtney put the Tape, back on Pomni.

*SMACK*

Pomni: *muffles*

Courtney: You're the one who is going to Hell!

Luigi: Courtney, please don't do this! You don't wanna kill an innocent Couple, do you?!

Courtney: Why shouldn't I?! After what Pomni did to Mikey?!

Luigi: SHE... WAS... FOUND... NOT... GUILTY!!!

Pomni: *muffles*

Luigi: You didn't keep an Eye on Mikey... and he jumped out with no warning!!!

Courtney: Pomni started all of this... and you're the one who went to my Boy's Funeral, un-invited!!!

Luigi: I wanted to apologise!!!

Courtney: Well, this is pay-back... for all of these things that you did to me, will be pay-back! And, let's see how your friends like when their loved ones are killed!

Courtney ripped some Fresh Tape.

Luigi: No, I beg you... Please don't do this, Courtney! We don't wanna feel what a Turkey feels like at Christmas! 😰

Courtney: Justice for Mikey is served.

Luigi: *SCREAMS* COURTNEY, FOR GOD'S SAKE... PLEASE!!! 😱😱😱

She put Tape on Luigi.

Luigi: *MUFFLES*

Courtney: Ah... the sweet sound of Revenge. 😈

Luigi/Pomni: *MUFFLES*

Courtney: It was nice knowing you two.

Luigi/Pomni: *MUFFLES*

Courtney: Good night, sleep tight and don't let the Bed Bugs bite. 😈

Courtney continued to pour Petrol, all over the Cafe floor... whilst she was walking away.
