Dry Bowser was rushing through the Donkey Kong Mountain racecourse as he approached the giant barrel while riding in his Piranha Prowler kart, when Petey Piranha landed in front of him.
"Petey! Move out of the way!" Dry Bowser exclaimed, bumping into the mutated piranha plant as they got blasted into the giant barrel, heading all the way up to the gray colored volcanic mountain that overlooked the jungle, with the two heavyweights landing on each other as Donkey Kong approached them.
"Ook, Dry Bowser look funny in pieces!" DK exclaimed as he pointed at the pile of bones that was Dry Bowser.
Dry Bowser just grumbled in annoyance as he placed himself back to normal, with Petey just chuckling at his misfortune. But why was Dry Bowser racing around the DK Mountain, anyway? Because it had an erupting volcano that overlooked a jungle. The boneheaded reptilian skeleton could not resist volcanoes. And as for why Donkey Kong was there? It was his course, first of all, and secondly, he was wondering if he could find any coconut cream pies he could use to shower his one true love. And finally, why was Petey present? The mutated piranha plant was just flying around one of the sixteen racecourses he was permitted to be allowed at, so of course he would make the most of his time there.
Of course, since this is a story involving barrels, there was one impending one that would... well, you'll see. And just so who happens to have been also present there? Why, Fred Flintstone and Barney Rubble, of course!
"Hey Fred," Barney asked as he took a look at the erupting volcano near the jungle foliage they were walking through. "You sure we're gonna get enough coconuts for the Water Buffalo Lodge?"
"Well Barn," Fred replied as he had his caveman club on his hand. "If I know anything about jungles... it's that it's filled to the brim with fruits! We'll have enough in no time!"
It as then that the volcano erupted, causing the entire jungle to shake as several coconuts fell out of the trees providing shade for the jungle. Fred and Barney celebrated as they gave each other a high five, collecting as many coconuts as they could stash within their caveman clothing. But as the title of the story dictated, the two cavemen turned around to see a giant wooden barrel heading... right towards them!
