You said that you wanted \LuigisWhateverShouldHappen macro to be executed, 
which in turn means that \immediate\write18 is executed, the text 
Something .... reason is written to the pdf, and the macro 
\imediate\write18 is executed.

If you do not want the text to be written to the pdf, do not add it to 
\LuigisWhat... macro :-)
