Yoshizilla: Hello, everyone! I just wanted to tell you all that it took me almost all day to write the following matches of the first round of the baseball tourtament. And I apoligize for taking long, because the evil, addicting YouTube kept me occupied with its videos. So once more, I apoligize, and for better suiting, I have decided to seperate this round, as well as rounds to come in the future, to four parts, this being the first part, Team Yoshi vs. Team Kong. I hope that you all understand and enjoy the first match!

Match-Ups: Round 1

Team Yoshi vs. Team Kong (Yoshi Island Field)

Team Mario vs. Team Pikachu (Lethal Lava Arena)

Team Zelda vs. Team Kirby (Icicle Fields)

Team Spacers vs. Team Sonic (Ankylosaurus Desert Field)

Game Rules: Whoever team gets the most points in the First Inning before striking out wins the game.


Yoshi the First, Peppy Ankylosaurus, Dr. Hoshi, Birdo, Boshi, Heppy Ankylosaurus, Zirdo the Birdosaurus, Shelia the Stegosaurus, and Bronto the Brontosaurus all run onto the plain, clean, and green Yoshi Island Field (with Yoshi being the pitcher and Bronto being the umpire) as Team Kong settled into the team dug-outs. The first to go up to bat was Tiny Kong.

"Goooo Tiny Kong!" Dixie Kong and Candy Kong cheered as Tiny looked back and smiled, before facing Yoshi.

Yoshi stretched his arms, and then he pitched the first ball, with Tiny swinging after the ball hit Bronto's glove.

"Stttttrike one!" Bronto shouted, tossing the ball back to Yoshi.

Tiny frowned. She positioned herself and got ready again.

Yoshi grinned. Chuckling, he hurled the ball again, with Tiny swinging the bat after the ball past.

"Stttttrike two!" Bronto shouted as he tossed the ball back to Yoshi.

Tiny sighed. Looking down at her feet, she looked up and was determined to get a hit.

Yoshi then backed up a bit, and started waving his left arm crazy, throwing the ball, which went so fast it went straight into Bronto's glove, not giving Tiny Kong a chance.

"Stttttrike three! You're out of here!" Bronto shouted, pointing to the dugout as he tossed the ball back to Yoshi.

Tiny sniffled. Tears coming from her eyes, she dropped the baseball bat and sulked back into the dugout.

Dixie comforted Tiny as she cried. "There there, Tiny. You managed to do a good job, even though you didn't get a hit," She said with a smile.

Diddy Kong jumped out of the dugout and grabbed the bat. He adjusted his red cap, spit out his gum, and gave a determined look at Yoshi. "All right, dinosaur breath, toss the ball!"

Yoshi nodded. "Right!" He tossed the ball, and Diddy hit it, the ball flying into the sky.

Dr. Hoshi ran into the grass, and jumped up into the air right as the ball was about to fall. The ball landed on his glvoe, and Diddy got out before he could make it to first base.

"You're out of here!" Bronto said, pointing to the dugout as Diddy yelled angrily and stomped back to the dugout.

Donkey Kong jumped out of the dugout and grabbed the bat with a tight grip. He growled, showing off his grisly teeth as Yoshi winded up the ball, and tossed it. Donkey Kong slammed the ball harshly with the baseball bat (causing the bat to break into pieces of wood), and the ball went soaring out of the field. Team Kong cheered as Donkey Kong celebrated and ran around all of the bases, stopping at home plate and high-fiving Diddy.

"It's a Two-Hit Homer!" Bronto shouted, dropping his jaw in disbelief.

A pair of Lakitu then dropped by to home plate and cleaned up the tiny pieces of wood. As they left another Lakitu hovered down to home plate and presented a new bat to Chunky Kong, who was batting next.

Yoshi growled, narrowing his eyes. "Donkey Kong managed to get a lucky hit. Well, I won't show mercy on this one!" He chuckled, as he started winding the new ball he recieved from the Lakitu. He tossed the ball, and Chunky swung the baseball bat before the ball managed to get into reach, with it going into Bronto's glove.

"Stttttrike one!" Bronto shouted loudly, tossing the ball back to Yoshi.

Chunky started to sweat nervously. "Errmm...uh oh..." He gulped, looking at the baseball bat.

Yoshi winded up another ball, and tossed it as Chunky continued staring at the bat. He looked up, and he screamed as the ball went past him and into Bronto's glove.

"Stttttrike two!" Bronto shouted again, throwing the ball back to Yoshi.

Chunky started to tremble in fright. "What if that ball hits me..." He whimpered to himself.

Dixie ran up the stairs of the dugout and shouted at Chunky, "HEY!!! Chunky!"

Chunky turned around to briefly face Dixie. "Huh? Dixie?"

"Just don't think about the ball and swing!" Dixie shouted as she ran back down the stairs and took a seat in the dugout.

Chunky gulped, rubbing the back of his head. "Well...I'll try..."

"Are you ready or not?" Boshi interrupted inpatiently, folding both of his arms and tapping his left foot.

Chunky nervously nodded. "I'm ready!" He said worriedly, getting into position.

Yoshi closed his eyes. He muttered unknown words to himself, and opened his eyes. Looking at the bat, and then Chunky, Yoshi got an idea. "A-ha! I'll use the old slow tactic..." The green Yoshisaurus chuckled as he threw the ball at a slower pitch.

Chunky focused on the ball. He kept thinking to himself, Don't worry about it...Don't worry about it!

Unfortunately for Chunky, his thoughts kept him from realizing that the ball was going slowly, and it entered into Bronto's glove.

"Stttttrike three! You're out of here!" Bronto shouted, as he dropped the umpire gear and ran into the dugout.

Team Yoshi: 0, Team Kong: 2

The rest of Team Yoshi dropped their gloves and ran into the dugout while Team Kong, growling at their defeat, sulked into the field, and picked up the gloves. Candy Kong went up to the pitcher's mound, and Donkey Kong became the umpire. Yoshi went up to home plate, smiling confidently as he held the baseball bat tightly.

Candy winded up her right arm, and she tossed the ball at fast velocity. Yoshi got out of position, and allowed the ball to pass him, and looked behind him to see it spinning on Donkey Kong's glove.

"Ball!" Donkey Kong shouted, eyeing Yoshi suspiciously.

Yoshi giggled and shrugged, turning around and getting into position as Donkey Kong tossed the ball back to Candy. Candy winded up the ball again, and tossed it, a flare surrounding it. Yoshi swung at the right moment, and as the ball went flying into the air, Yoshi dropped the bat and ran fast enough to stop on first base. The ball came back down, and Lanky Kong ran to it, throwing it back to Candy.

Peppy Ankylosaurus got out of the dugout and took the baseball bat. He looked at Candy, and hearts replaced his eyes, his jaw dropping and drooling with delight as his nosebleed.

Candy sweatdropped, and shuddered in disgust as she tossed the ball at Peppy. Peppy was too love-sickened to notice as the ball went into Donkey Kong's glove.

"Stttttrike one!" Donkey Kong shouted as he threw the ball back to Candy. Peppy continued to stare at the feminine Kong with delight.

Candy sighed with disgust and tossed the ball at a fast pace of speed. The ball passed Peppy again, spinning around in Donkey Kong's glove.

"Stttttrike two!" Donkey Kong shouted, whacking Peppy in the head with the ball before throwing it back to Candy. "And lay off! She's MY girl!"

Peppy growled angrily as he rubbed the back of his head. Looking at Candy, he got ready.

Candy tightened her lip, and she tossed the ball towards Peppy. Peppy swung at the ball, and it went flying through the air, landing at the back of the field. Yoshi and Peppy both ran as fast as they could while Diddy and Dixie both ran towards the ball. Diddy picked it up and tossed it to Funky, who caught the ball, but was unfortunate as Peppy was already standing on second plate.

Boshi went up to the field next. He moved his sunglasses up to his head, and looked at Candy, winking to her. "Hey babe, how 'bout you and me at a diner afterwards?"

Candy gasped, and she slightly blushed. "Well...I don't date small reptilians..."

Boshi chuckled, brushing his face with his right hand. "What's wrong? Am I too hot for you?"

Donkey Kong growled, and he slapped Boshi in the back of the head. "Hey! Stop trying to get my girl and focus on playing the darn game!"

Boshi growled, gritting his teeth as he picked up the baseball bat and held it firmly. "Fine, you stupid, overgrown ape..." He narrowed his eyes at Candy. "Give me your best shot, girlfriend!"

Candy growled, and she tossed the ball towards Boshi. As it seemed that the ball was going to pass, Boshi struck, and the ball went blasting out of the field, giving Team Yoshi a three home run.

"HOME RUN!?" Donkey Kong exclaimed, taking off his umpire mask and stomping on it as the rest of Team Kong complained while Team Yoshi cheered loudly. Yoshi, Peppy, and Boshi all ran past home plate, and they gave each other high-five.

Zirdo stood up on home plate, holding the baseball bat firmly. Candy switched pitcher positions with Funky Kong, who threw the ball and frankily made Zirdo miss, swinging as the ball past her.

"Stttttrike one!" Donkey Kong shouted as he threw the ball back to Funky. Zirdo frowned, and she firmly continued holding the bat.

Funky chuckled, and spinning around, he tossed the ball, and it hit Zirdo in the nose, causing her to drop the baseball bat.

Donkey Kong sighed, slapping his forehead. "Ball," He said in a disappointed low tone as Zirdo cheered and skipped to first base.

Heppy Ankylosaurus went up to base. He spat out his gum and looked at Funky with a competetive look.

Funky swung his right arm backwards, and hurled the ball, watching in delight as it passed Heppy (who swung before the ball made contact) and landed into Donkey Kong's glove.

"Stttttrike one!" Donkey Kong shouted as he threw the ball back to Funky.

Funky moved a bit to the right, while Heppy back up. Funky then tossed the ball at a slow rate, and Heppy swung again before the ball could make contact, landing in Donkey Kong's glove.

"Stttttrike two!" Donkey Kong shouted as he threw the ball back to Funky.

Heppy growled, tightly gripping the baseball bat. As Funky tossed the ball at a fast rate, Heppy swung the bat, but he spun around while the ball went into Donkey Kong's glove again.

"Stttttrike three! You're out of here!" Donkey Kong shouted, pointing to the dugout with a smile as he threw the ball back to Funky.

Heppy frowned, and he sulked back into the dugout. Birdo and Shelia both comforted the sad, purple Ankylosaurus.

Bronto went up to the home plate. Picking up the baseball bat and looking at the western direction, Bronto pointed the baseball bat to the western direction, and got into position.

Funky chuckled, seeing what Bronto was attemtping to do. "I'll surprise the big brute," He muttered to himself, as he tossed the ball...to the right!

Bronto laughed victoriously. "Not so fast, banana breath!" He swung the bat at the ball, and it went soaring out of the field in the eastern direction, which gave Team Yoshi another home run. Team Kong groaned in disappointment as Team Yoshi cheered loudly and congratulated Bronto. Zirdo gave Bronto a kiss on the cheek, making the blue Brontosaurus chuckle a bit.

Shelia went up to the home plate. Firmly grasping the baseball bat, she looked at Lanky Kong, who switched pitcher positions with Funky.

Lanky goofily laughed, and he started winding up the ball, turning backwards and throwing it under his butt. The ball was too low for Shelia to strike.

"Stttttrike one!" Donkey Kong shouted as he threw the ball back to Lanky.

Shelia growled, and she walked up further to get a better position.

Lanky started scratching his head as he then tossed the ball at a higher reach, missing Shelia (who accidentaly swung) and landing into Donkey Kong's glove.

"Stttttrike two!" Donkey Kong shouted as he threw the ball back to Lanky.

Shelia started to get angry. As Lanky tossed the ball, Shelia swung with all her might, accidentaly whacking Donkey Kong to the ground. The ball, ironically, missed and instead fell into the knocked-down Donkey Kong's glove.

"Stttttrike three! You're out of here!" Donkey Kong slightly stuttered as he stood back up and rubbed his head, pointing to the dugout with a smile as he threw the ball back to Lanky.

Shelia screamed with angewr, and she tossed the baseball bat to the ground, stomping off into the dugout and pouting as he sat down and folded her arms with disgust.

Birdo went up to home plate. She sighed and grabbed the baseball bat, and looked at Lanky. Lanky started picking his nose (much to everyone's disgust), and he then tossed the ball with his feet. Birdo swung after the ball passed her, and it went into Donkey Kong's glove.

"Stttttrike one!" Donkey Kong shouted as he threw the ball back to Funky.

Team Yoshi gasped, as did Birdo, who positioned herself again. Lanky just grinned goofily and threw the ball, which Birdo swung before it came into contact. The ball easily landed into Donkey Kong's glove.

"Stttttrike two!" Donkey Kong shouted as he threw the ball back to Funky.

Birdo moaned, and she started saying to herself, "Come on, Birdo, it's just a small, little baseball...don't let it get to your head!"

Lanky chuckled as he stretched his arms and legs. "What's the matter? Have no guts to swing a teeny, little baseball?" He cruely joked.

Birdo growled, her eyes narrowed down and looking angrily at Lanky. "Oh, that is it!" She angrily shouted, tightly gripping the baseball bat, "GIVE ME YOUR BEST SHOT, JERK!!!"

Lanky's right eye twitched. "Freako..." He shrugged. "Oh well." He tossed the ball.

Birdo angrily breathed, and as the ball came into contact, she swung, dropping the bat and running to first place as the ball went soaring into the air. Diddy jumped into the air and managed to catch the ball before Birdo got onto first base.

"Out!" Donkey Kong shouted, throwing his umpire glove to the ground and slamming his hands shortly afterwards in anger.

"THAT'S THE GAME!!!" Lakitu shouted, as Team Yoshi all ran up to each other and gave high-fives while Team Kong angrily complained after losing and sulked off the field.
