The sun was beginning to set over Dinosaur World. Yoshi sat on top of a cliff, looking at the sun slowly dip downwards to the horizon.
"Never thought I find you here."
Yoshi smiled, and turned to look at the person.
"Hey stranger. How's the vacation going so far?"
Mario yawned, putting a hand to his mouth.
"Just wonderful." He said dreamily.
"You wanna come watch the sunset with me?" Asked Yoshi.
"Sure. I got nothing to do."
Yoshi scooted over a bit as Mario sat down next to him. The two were quiet for a moment as they looked at the sun became a golden splotch.
Mario started chuckling for a bit. Yoshi looked at him oddly.
"What?" He asked.
Mario shook his head as he continued to chuckle. "Don't call me weird or anything. It's just...oh never mind."
"Tell me!" Yoshi begged, shaking Mario's shoulder.
"Alright, alright. It's just...how odd is it to meet each other again after all these years. Must be a freak coincidence or…"
"Destiny?" Yoshi answered.
Mario smiled. "Yeah that's it. Destiny."
More silence.
"Y'know you never told me much on what happened to you over the years." Yoshi said.
"It's a long story." Mario sighed.
"I got time." Yoshi responded.
"As long as you tell me your side." Mario challenged.
"Deal." Yoshi grinned.
The two reunited best friends then began to tell their tales to one another. They laughed at the funny memories, and cried at the pain-filled ones.
By the time nighttime settled in Dinosaur World, Mario and Yoshi were still at the cliff, too lost in their chatter to even keep track at the time.
It didn't matter anyway. They were in the company of each other, and that's all what mattered to them.
