…Why am I here again?
The mayhem continued to unfold before me, as well as the rest of the audience, in the form of Banjo, Kazooie, Isabelle, Donkey Kong and Jigglypuff performing yet another one of their song and dance routines. Even Luma joined in, unable to contain its mirth as it bounced about. The group had insisted this would be their greatest hit yet.
Or, as far as I'm concerned, their biggest blunder…
So far the audience seemed to agree with me. Not a snicker nor smirk; not even a guffaw from the normally boisterous Bowser. And just when I thought the act couldn't get any more absurd…
Was that a totem? And who's idea was it to have Donkey Kong on top? Apparently it was the group's big finale, with Banjo and Kazooie playing a fanfare on their namesake instruments.
Good, it's almost over…
As to be expected, the totem of six came tumbling down, and what a spectacle it was, I must admit… Is this why I stayed as long as I did?
We were all left completely unmoved. That is, until someone broke out in laughter somewhere within the audience. Bewildering to everyone else, but to me, it was the sweetest, most genuine sound I had ever heard…
To think that wonderful laugh belonged to her, the warrior behind the mask…
Before I could even fathom it, I was laughing along with her. And to both our embarrassment, all eyes were on us…
I guess we stole the show that night…
