Trust me, do it.

Luigi POV

It was dark. Nothing but dark.

I looked around. "What the..."

Hmm....where was I. I couldn't see anything for miles.

"Hello? Anybody?"

No response.

"Hmm, maybe the book will explain this,"

I reached down for the book, but, "W-what? WHERE'S THE BOOK??"

I started frantically looking around. I never let it out of my sight. I always kept it on or near me. "W-Where is it??"

I continued freaking out. I dropped to the ground and started searching for it. "Come on. I-It has to be somewhere! I can't have lost it already."

Then, I saw color.

Purple.....

Purple and yellow.

Someone was standing. His back to me. He looked to be about 50 feet away.

My eyes went wide. "D-Dim?"

H-How was he here? I shook my head, tears welling up in my eyes.

I smiled and started running towards him. "Dim! Dimentio, it's you!"

I ran faster and faster. "I-I thought I lost you! I thought you were gone!"

He didn't react to my voice. He just stood there, looking off at nothing. Silent.

I slowed down once I reached him. "Dimentio?"

He said nothing.

I reached for his shoulder, but when I touched him, he faded away.

I shook my head. "W-what? No! Dimentio! Come back!"

I looked around. "Dimentio? Dim, where are you?"

"Luigi, please."

I turned around. The blackness faded to white, and I was back. Back in that room. The room where it happened. The room where I dropped him.

"LUIGI, PLEASE!"

I could see another version of myself holding Dimentio by the arm, but he wasn't looking at that Luigi.

He was looking at me.

"Why? Why did you drop me?"

I looked down at my hands. "I-I don't know."

He shook his head, barely hanging on. I could see the other version of myself's grip loosen on him.

"You could have saved me."

I held my head. "I know! I KNOW! I-I just....I...."

He frowned at me. He had the look of a thousand sorrows.

"You chose the book over me."

My eyes went wide. "What? No! I-I didn't."

He looked down and shook his head.

"I trusted you. I trusted you more than I trusted myself."

"Dim, I-"

Suddenly he used his free hand to snap his fingers, the book floated into view. My eyes went wide and I quickly grabbed it, hugging it to my chest.
