Chapter 20: Family Ties

Hey Guys! I'm back with an all new chapter!

Yoshi: Sweet! What is it about?

Me: You should know, you're in it.

Maxwell: Well I'm not in it.

Me: C'mon Maxwell, don't be mad, next chapter, you'll be playing major roles again, so I just need you to take a rest on this one.

Maxwell: Oh, okay, ten that's fine by me.

Me: Friends?

Maxwell: Friends.

Yoshi: Hey, wait, why don't I ever get any rests?

Me: Because you're the main guy in this story, I'll have you take a nap in this story, ok?

Yoshi: alright!

Me: And guess what everybody, It's a 20 Chapter anniversary!!!!!

Yoshi: YES!!! 20 chapters! :D

Maxwell: Alright! What do we get?

Me: Any reviewers get the buddy medal, this is awarded for sticking with and reading/reviewing my story. So TheYoshter, here you go! Yoshi and Maxwell, you both get survival medals and awesome character medals, as well as candy.

Yoshi+Maxwell: SWEET!

Me: I don't own much here, I don't even own myself, my parents do, anyway, I don't own Mario, Dead Rising, and other cameos here.

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

When we last left our heroes, Dr. Barnaby had filled them in about the zombie outbreak, they found out Carlito put the confettigon in wasps so they would sting people and start the outbreak. Then they figured out Isabella, the white Yoshi, was Carlito's sister, now they are currently headed toward the back of the mall, where they haven't been to yet, hoping to find her.

Yoshi: Gee, it sure is boring around here.

Black Yoshi: You can say that again.

Yoshi: Gee it sure is-

Black Yoshi: It's a figure of speech dude.

Yoshi: Sorry.

Black Yoshi: Anyway, where the hack could Isabella be?

Yoshi: Hm, it's too bad we didn't bring Maxwell along, even though he didn't take special ed stuff, he had potential.

(In the security room)

Maxwell: (Shivers)

Jessie: What's wrong Maxwell?

Maxwell: I felt like Yoshi made another comment about me.

Jessie: You're just being paranoid.

Maxwell: I guess so.

(Back with Yoshi)

Yoshi: Anyway, I'm sure she should be around here somewhere.

Black Yoshi: Hey, wait! Did you here that!

Yoshi: Yeah, it sounds like… OH PFARGTL!

Just then a motorcycle came out of nowhere and tried to run them over, they just barely escaped in time. But to be safe, they jumped up on some nearby stacks of wood.

Yoshi: That was too close.

Isabella: Carlito, is that you, how did you survive?

Black Yoshi: Um, actually ma'am you have it all wrong, I just am the same color as him, I don't have his jacket or rip-off shades.

Isabella: Then I suppose I'll have to kill you.

Yoshi: Uh oh.

Black Yoshi: Yoshi! Distract her! I'll try to get her off the motorcycle.

Yoshi: Got it!

Yoshi jumped down to Isabella, and prepared to distract her.

Yoshi: 'Oh man, what do I do? Wait I got it!'

Yoshi then started to tell the best jokes he knew of.

Yoshi: Um, what building has the most stories?

Isabella: Um, I don't know.

Yoshi: A library! (Laughs).

Black Yoshi: Um, that wasn't the distraction I meant, but ok.

So while Yoshi was telling jokes, Black Yoshi quietly tip-toed (Author's Note: Sorry if I'm using unnecessary hyphens) Over to the motorcycle and dismantled it.

Black Yoshi: And that should do it!

Yoshi: Um, what's the deal with that ketchup, I mean, where does it all go.

(Cricket chirps)

Isabella: I don't have time for this, eat wheel!

Yoshi: 'I hope Black Yoshi did his job!'

But right when Isabella started the motorcycle, she heard a sputtering sound from the engine, and then after checking she stepped on the gas, but then the motorcycle literally fell apart, leaving only the seat the only thing fully intact.

Isabella: What the? What did you do?

Black Yoshi: Good thing I had some Koopa brand sticky syrup.

Yoshi: (Looks around)

Black Yoshi: What is it Yoshi?

Yoshi: Right now I was expecting Billy Mays to show up.

Billy Mays: Hey guys.

Yoshi: Oh hey! Why aren't you doing a commercial like you usually are?

Billy Mays: Well apparently just because I'm dead I can't make commercials.

Black Yoshi: What? That's insane!

Billy Mays: I know, but now I sell premium quality hot dog scratchers.

Black Yoshi: A hot dog scratcher? What could you possibly use it for?

Billy Mays: To take the crust off, some people hate crusts.

Black Yoshi: It's a bun, it's supposed to be that way, it's all crust.

Yoshi: Makes sense to me.

Black Yoshi: See, Yoshi agrees.

Yoshi: Actually I was talking about the hot dog scratcher.

Black Yoshi: What?!? How is that possibly a good idea????

Yoshi: Even food has feelings Black Yoshi.

Black Yoshi: Never mind, I'll take one.

Yoshi: I'll take ten!

Billy Mays: Thanks guys! Here you go.

He then gave him his "valuable products".

Yoshi: Bye Billy!

Billy Mays: Bye guys!

Black Yoshi: Hey wait, where's Isabella?

Yoshi: There she is!

Apparently even though they were talking for 30 minutes, Isabella had only managed to tip toe 3 feet away.

Black Yoshi: That right there is sad.

Isabella: Your mom is sad!

Black Yoshi: (Eye twitches) What… Did… YOU… SAY?!?!?!?

Yoshi: Black Yoshi calm down, I know that was a low blow, but we won't get help on the outbreak if you kill her.

Black Yoshi: (Sighs) You're right, I've gotta calm down.

Yoshi: Now let me talk to her.

Black Yoshi: Alright.

So Yoshi nonchalantly walked over to Isabella, and then talked to her.

Yoshi: Excuse me Isabella, we would like to-

Isabella: (Kicks Yoshi in the stomach)

Yoshi: Augh! Oh come on! That's the third time already I've been kicked there, does your foot have stomach kicking fetish or something?'

Isabella: Sorry, anyway, are you sure you didn't mean to kill my brother?

Yoshi: I didn't ask that but no, we didn't.

Isabella: Well then, follow me.

Black Yoshi: Why?

Isabella: To show you some stuff.

So they followed her to a place near a hardware store, and discovered a secret loose panel in the ceiling, they climbed in, and discovered a secret base.

Black Yoshi: Whoa, so this was your base of operations?

Isabella: Yes, and I have some stuff that could help.

Black Yoshi: Like what?

Yoshi: Argh!

Black Yoshi: Yoshi? What are you doing?

Yoshi: I keep trying to order a happy meal on this computer but it's not working!

Isabella: Oh, that's because we had a signal jammer to prevent any outgoing or incoming calls from outside the city.

Black Yoshi: Can you shut it off?

Isabella: I'm sorry but no, only Carlito knew the password.

Black Yoshi: Then what did you say could help us?

Isabella: Well you guys looked pretty stressed out, so I got these massage chairs.

Yoshi: Sweet! I'm in! Oh, and Carlito told me to give you this pendant.

Isabella: Give me that! (Takes it), aha! I knew it!

Black Yoshi: What?

Isabella: The password is on this pendant.

Black Yoshi: What's the password?

Yoshi: Hamburgers.

Black Yoshi: Yoshi, get back to massages.

Yoshi: Fine. (Turns it on) Ahhhhhhhhhhh. That's good stuff.

Isabella: Actually, Yoshi was right.

Black Yoshi: HUH?

Isabella: The password is hamburgers. Now type it in, and press enter and… there! Signals aren't blocked anymore!

Black Yoshi: Sweet!

Jessie: Hey guys!

Yoshi: Oh, the walkie talkie! (Answers it). Hello, oh hey Jessie!

Jessie: Guess what? We called the special forces and they're coming! Maybe we can get out of here!

Yoshi: Sweet! Thanks for the info!

Jessie: They'll be here in two hours. So hurry!

Yoshi: Ok, see you there!

Black Yoshi: What did she say?

Yoshi: The special forces are coming! We're gonna get out of here!

Black Yoshi: Yes! Did you here that Isabella, we can leave!

Isabella: You can leave!

Yoshi: What do you mean?

Isabella: When special forces get here, they will probably kill me because I helped my brother, so once they dispose of the zombies I'll wait for them to leave and I'll go and start a new life.

Black Yoshi: Are you sure? We'll vouch for you if you want.

Isabella: Thanks for the offer, but I'm sure, you guys go ahead. And good luck!

Yoshi: Bye Isabella! And thanks for the help!

Isabella: Your welcome!

So with that, they left back to the security room with heads held high, and hearts proud. They knew it was finally going to be over and done with, and they could go home and relax after this.

When they got back to the security room though, something wasn't right. Everyone was sad, scared, or muttering, this is the end.

Yoshi: Jessie? What's going on with everybody?

Black Yoshi: Yeah they should cheer up! We're finally getting out of here.

Jessie: Well, it seems that the forces had a change in plans.

Black Yoshi: They're not coming?

Jessie: No, they're coming.

Yoshi: How is that bad?

Jessie: They will do a thorough cleanup of the mall once they get here.

Yoshi: So they clean the mall and scrub it and make it smell good, what's so bad about that?

Black Yoshi: That's not what they mean by cleanup Yoshi.

Yoshi: Then what does it mean, and why are you both pale?

Jessie: By a thorough cleanup, they mean… that every living thing in this mall is going to be terminated on sight.

Yoshi: (Staggers back) …no.

TO BE CONTINUED

Me: Well, it's another cliffy. Worse than the others.

Yoshi: So is everyone gonna die?

Me: No! I ain't telling, I can say you won't die from the forces though.

Yoshi: Oh phew, had me going.

Maxwell: What about the rest of us?

Me: You'll just have to wait and see.

Maxwell: Please tell us, please, PPLLLEEEAAAASSSEEEEE????

Me: Maxwell, you'll just have to wait.

Maxwell: Can you do a double update?

Me: No, I need to plan a good ending.

Maxwell: Fine.

Me: Anyway, will this news leave everyone for the worse, or better? Who will survive? Find out next time in Chapter 21: Beginning of the End.
