It's time for the second chapter now I think. Nintendo own every single character in this fanfic. Just a reminder of what happened in the previous chapter incase you forgot. After Mario had defeated Bowser in Isle Delfino, they all had a party. Luigi had joined them as well. After a few days it was time to fly back to their peaceful home. Luigi has been given permission by Peach to stay at Isle Delfino a bit longer. After the plane landed at the runway, Mario, Peach, and Yoshi climbed out, but they were in for a nasty surprise.

Chapter 2

Instead of being greeted by loads of friends, all they noticed was a blue and a pink Yoshi lying still on the grass.

"What's happened to Yoshi's friends?" Yoshi said as he began to approach the blue and pink Yoshi.

Peach walked up to them expecting the worse. She knelt down on the grass to see if they were alright. Yoshi tried to run up to them to see if they were alive, but Mario held Yoshi back.

"I think its best we stay here Yoshi, and let the princess take a look at them" Mario said as he held Yoshi's hand tightly.

Yoshi had a tear in his eye fearing the worst.

"They will be better once the princess has looked at them" Mario said reassuringly. But even Mario knew that this wasn't looking too good.

After a few seconds, Peach called Mario and Yoshi over. They both ran to Peach and the two Yoshi's.

"I don't know what's wrong with them" Peach said worryingly. "There doesn't seem to be any physical injury to either of them, but at least they are breathing".

Mario tried talking to them, but there wasn't any response. Yoshi gave both of them a little lick of both of their faces. All of a sudden the blue Yoshi slowly opened his eyes.

"What happened, what's a matter?" Peach asked quickly

The blue Yoshi couldn't manage to speak. All it managed to do was quietly weep. Yoshi then started to cry and gave the blue Yoshi a hug.

"You've got to tell us what's wrong" Mario said as he got closer.

But the blue Yoshi still couldn't respond. All it managed to do was open his mouth.

"Maybe he wants some food" Mario said as he walked around looking for food.

Mario jumped over hills and went down a few pipes, but he couldn't find any food nearby. After a few minutes Mario returned to Peach and Yoshi.

"I can't find any food anywhere" Mario said looking confused.

"That's strange" Peach said as she was deciding what to do next.

"We need to think of something fast" said Mario whilst scratching his head.

"Looks like we will have to take them to the mushroom hospital" Peach said as she pointed towards a forest.

"Why Peach pointing to scary forest?" Yoshi asked looking even more worried than before.

"Because the mushroom hospital is at the other side of that forest. We will have to go through the forest with the blue and pink Yoshi" Peach replied.

"Are you sure that's a good idea?" Mario asked. "It's going to be difficult carrying the two Yoshi's through the forest, and also that forest is full of Bowser's minions."

"Do you have any better idea's" Peach quickly replied." We don't have a choice, we have to find out what is wrong with these Yoshi's"

Yoshi carried the blue Yoshi on his back, whilst Mario and Peach carried the pink Yoshi. They all entered the forest together. It was extremely hot in the forest. The sunlight was beaming down on them. It became increasingly difficult to breathe because of the extreme heat. The air felt thick and horrible. But Yoshi, Peach and Mario still carried on walking through the forest.

"There haven't been any bad guys yet" Mario said as the sweat dripped of his face.

But as soon as he said that, a crowd of Shyguys jumped out in front of them.

"Me and my big mouth" Mario said as he shook his head. "Princess, you and Yoshi take care of the blue and pink Yoshi. And I'll take care of these little pests.

As Mario said that, the Shyguys took out their spears, and began to charge towards Mario. Luckily, Mario was able to jump out of the way. He then jumped into the air and held onto a vine that was dangling from a tree. He was then about to let go of the vine and land on the Shyguys, but one of the Shyguys threw a spear at the vine which cut the vine in half. Mario then fell to the ground. He landed flat on his face and he was stunned for a little while. As Mario opened his eyes, he noticed a Shyguy was about to jump on him. As the Shyguy leapt into the air, Mario rolled out of the way. The Shyguy missed Mario and hit the ground. Mario stood up and grabbed the Shyguy, and held him high. Mario then threw him at the other Shyguys. The Shyguys ended up in a pile on the floor.

"This is my opportunity to jump on them all together and defeat them" Mario said out loud.

Mario took a run up and leapt into the air. He was about to land on them, but instead, Yoshi decided to wrap his tongue around them all and eat them. Mario then hit the ground yet again.

"Mmmmm, not bad, they could do with a little salt" Yoshi said as he swallowed the Shyguys.

"Ouch, thanks a lot Yoshi" Mario said as he stumbled onto his feet.

"Why Mario on ground, did nasty Shyguys give Mario trouble?" Yoshi asked as he felt the last Shyguy hit the bottom of his bottomless stomach.

"I was about to land on them, but then you eat them up and I landed flat on the ground" Mario replied.

Yoshi let out a little giggle.

"I'm glad you think it's funny" Mario said as he rubbed the dirt off his face. "Well at least we are safe now"

"Mario, come quick" Peach yelled.

Mario and Yoshi quickly ran back to Peach to see what the problem was.

"A group of little monkeys grabbed the pink Yoshi and took him to that tree" Peach said as she pointed towards one of the tallest trees in the forest.

Mario hopped on Yoshi, as they ran towards the tree.

"How are we going to get all the way up there?" Mario asked as he looked up.

"Yoshi give Mario boost up tree" Yoshi said as he knelt down ready to jump as high as he possibly could.

Yoshi leapt into the air and gave Mario a boost. The boost was successful, and Mario grabbed onto some vines and started to climb up the tree. Yoshi landed safely back on his feet.

"Be careful Mario" Yoshi and Peach yelled from the ground.

Mario slowly but surely managed to climb to the top of the tree where the monkeys were holding the pink Yoshi. Mario slowly began to creep up to the monkeys. He didn't want to get too close to them incase they threw the pink Yoshi down the tree. He thought he would try talking to them.

"Hey guys, err, do you fancy giving me the pink Yoshi back?" Mario asked as he was hanging on to the tree.

The monkeys looked at each other and shook their heads.

"Well, do you fancy a trade then? The princess has got some lovely juicy melons you can have if you let us have that Yoshi back" Mario asked.

The monkeys looked and talked to each other. Mario wondered what they were saying. After a few second the monkeys stopped talking, and nodded their heads.

"Is that a yes then?" Mario asked with a smile on his face.

But the smile soon disappeared from Mario's face when the monkeys threw the pink Yoshi down. Mario gasped as he watched the pink Yoshi fall off the tree. Peach and Yoshi could see what had happened from the ground.

"I can't look" Peach and Yoshi said as they hid their face with their hands.

Mario couldn't do anything to save the pink Yoshi, because he was stuck up the tree. All he could do was watch, as the poor Yoshi started to fall to his doom.
