Chapter Ten: Shortcut
Inside the abyss, DK was locked up in a cage. He tried very hard to try to break the bars on the cage, but had no luck. The Master Hand was busy working on opening the next portal. The Crazy Hand waited impatiently, "What's taking so long? It's almost been an hour."
"An hour and three minutes to be precise, but who's keeping track?" replied the Master Hand, "The portal to the Yoshi world seems to be stuck and it's going to take a while to open."
The Crazy Hand was enraged, "Get us there before five minutes or I'll kill you."
The Master hand turned around and began to wave his hands to open another vortex, "We'll take a shortcut. I'll open the vortex from another world and then we'll get Yoshi. Unfortunately, we'll have to backtrack…"
"Just do it already!" shouted the Crazy Hand. The vortex opened and in the two hands went.
In a large land, a band of mercenaries were on a quest in search of the nearby town of Tourrelsa. Enemy forces had overtaken the town and Prince Marth had a duty to save the town from the evil. They rode uphill until they could see a small town in a valley. "There it lies. Tourrelsa shall be ours in a matter of days," proclaimed Prince Marth to his battalion, "We shall over take the enemy's HQ. It's about three days ride from here, and word has it that we'll have a nice welcome party. Any questions?"
One of the Lance Knight's pointed a finger at Prince Marth, "I have one…what the heck is that?!?!"
Prince Marth turned around to see two large floating hands. One of them nervously twitched. "Are you of high caliber or low caliber?"
The one that twitched spoke, "Leave us be, insolent beings."
Prince Marth drew his blade, "You dare call me, Prince Marth, insolent??? You dare battle my troops and me??? If it's a fight you want, than so be it!!!" He dismounted his horse, with his blade pointing at the twitching hand. He then began to twirl it around with grace and experience. He held it with both hands and began to charge up a large attack that was known throughout the land as the shield breaker. Prince Marth had won many previous battles by slicing through enemy defenses with this attack. The battalion members began to draw their weapons.
The twitching hand twitched even more, "C'mon, hurry it up. We need to get out of here."
The other hand finished waving about and a vortex formed, "Ready." They began to concentrate simultaneously. They released a powerful spell, putting everyone to sleep. They then began to clap rapidly, smashing Prince Marth and sending him flying into the vortex. The Master Hand turned toward the Crazy hand, "That wasn't good, we better get him back here before Yoshi finds him."
A happy world gave a habitation for a group of animals called Yoshi's. These creatures ranged in a variety of colors, no two alike. There is one that is green that has saved many worlds from peril, and people call him Yoshi. This is not correct since the species of animals is called Yoshi, but since he was known throughout a world that connected to another world called the Mushroom Kingdom, the people called him Yoshi. Yoshi had recently saved his own world, restoring it to its happy status. He had rescued the Yoshi's most precious possession that all Yoshi life depended on it. The Super Happy Tree gave shelter, food, and power to the Yoshi's. Baby Bowser's attempts to steal it were futile as Yoshi and some of the other Yoshi's foiled his plans. Yoshi was on his way to the Super Happy Tree for a little nourishment. Before Yoshi could get to the tree, a vortex opened up above him, and from the vortex fell a man with a sword. He fell on top of Yoshi's back. Yoshi was use to people riding his back, including a man in a red cap named Mario. He turned his head backward and saw this person on his back, half conscious and badly bruised. Yoshi raced to the tree with the man on his back. The Super Happy Tree was baring a lot of fruit lately, leaving the Yoshi's plenty of food to share around. Yoshi laid the man down, leaning up against the trunk of the tree. Yoshi began to repeatedly head butt the tree to try to shake some of the fruit off the tree. Yoshi saw that his attempts were failing, so he backed out from the tree's shading and formed an egg in his hands. He hurled the egg in the center of a large patch of fruit, and many pieces fell down. Today was a special day, for all the fruit that was on the tree were ripe melons, the Yoshi's favorite delicacies. Yoshi brought over a melon to where the man lay and placed it in his open hands. The man used all of his strength left to pull the fruit up to his face and eat a little bite. He slowly began eating it, more and more rapidly. When Yoshi saw that his new friend had his fill, he began helping himself. Yoshi's become extremely happy once they eat their fill of fruit, which is always thirty pieces. After eating the last piece of melon, Yoshi gave out a little happy cry. He began to see in his eyes all the pieces of fruit he ate. He then gave a twirl and made the peace symbol with one of his paws happily saying, "Yoshi!"
The young man got up on his two legs and walked over to the creature, "Thank you, noble creature, for saving my life."
"Yoshi yoshi!" was all that the creature could say.
"Yoshi, eh…you are an astonishing creature, but I must return to my own world. A large pair of hands attacked me and my battalion."
"Yoshi?" inquired Yoshi. He then gave off a mean look on his face, "Yoshi yosh…"
"…Yeeeaaahh, what you said. If I don't return, I might never save my battalion or Tourrelsa."
Where the vortex still was, the Master Hand and the Crazy Hand appeared. The Master hand floated toward a pleasant odor, "This way, I'm sure of it."
Yoshi sniffed the air and gave off a scowl. He looked up at the Super Happy Tree, "Yoshi yoshi yosh yoshi!" The tree began to grow a heart on one of the lowest branches. Yoshi licked it up and ran off. Prince Marth followed closely behind Yoshi.
The Master Hand stopped moving, "What the…" Yoshi was running straight for them. He jumped as high as he could into the air, and pounded right on top of the Master Hand with a fury of kicks.
Right behind Yoshi, Prince Marth ran underneath the Crazy Hand, "Just returning the favor…" He then jumped into the air and uppercut the Crazy Hand right in the middle of his palm. After the attack, both hands recoiled. Yoshi eyed the Master Hand and turned himself into an egg. He began to roll rapidly toward the Master Hand. Marth followed Yoshi's lead by running toward the crazy hand, twirling his sword in his hands. Yoshi struck first and then turned around to attack again. Marth attacked the crazy hand with a fury of slices, releasing his anger through his blade. As Yoshi went around to his second pass, the Master Hand flicked him, causing Yoshi to break off his egg roll attack and sending him flying into a nearby tree. Marth went for another uppercut only to be stopped in his tracks by a bombardment of bombs. The Master Hand grabbed Yoshi and the Crazy Hand grabbed Prince Marth. They hovered their way through the vortex, back to Marth's world.
When the hands entered back into Marth's world, they were greeted by a boy in his teens wielding a sword. He gazed at the hands with rage and pointed his sword at the Crazy Hand, "Release the prince now, you foul demon, or you shall face my wrath."
"A mere boy," questioned the Crazy Hand, "slay the greatest power in the universe? I beg to differ…"
The boy ran up to him and sliced him with an uppercut similar to Marth's, but more powerful and very hot causing flames to burst from the sword. "Release the prince now, or I shall smite thee."
"Impressive," said the Crazy Hand, "for a boy. But you are rather cocky and fail to realize the truth." The boy charged up his sword as the Crazy Hand swooped down for a punch. He was stopped in his tracks when the boy released his sword, causing an explosion on impact. The Crazy Hand dropped the prince and shook himself to put out the flames, "Who are you?"
"My name is Roy. I am a close friend to Prince Marth. That is all you must know. Now leave this land."
The Master Hand stared at them angrily, almost crushing Yoshi in his grasp. He threw Yoshi and it hit both Marth and Roy, sending them all flying. The hands picked them up and dragged them into the vortex.
