"Last time, on A Smashy Amazing Race: Teams went to Congo Jungle! While waiting for a charter plane in the airport, Samus and Zelda tried to steal Nana and Popo's food, which caused a giant brawl making the people that didn't fight get in the lead. Falcon and DK's car got vandalised, which set them behind!" said Master Hand.
"Young Link and Ganondorf arrived at the pit stop first, but to try to cheat gave them a half an hour penalty! Falcon and DK arrived last, but now have to wear electric shock collars, which may interrupt fine delicate tasks.
Will front runners Kirby and Yoshi consistently finish on top? Will Falcon and DK finally fall?
"Only eight teams remain, who will be eliminated next?"

The Teams:

Nana and Popo (Lemon)
Link and Jigglypuff (GREIPFRUTE!1111111)
Kirby and Yoshi (Apple)
Peach and Bowser (Peach (You don't think?))
Ganondorf and Young Link (Watermelon)
Ness and Mewtwo (Nectarine)
Samus and Zelda (Lime)
Falcon and DK (Oh, I have this fantasy where we're both sitting in a bathtub naked filled with fruit, and then Falcon says some really nice things to me, and then we… hey, is the camera on? NO! YOU NEVER HEARD ANYTHING!)

LEG SIX

"Kirby and Yoshi arrived at 5:47 PM, they will depart at 5:47 AM," said Master Hand.

Kirby and Yoshi
Currently in 1st Place
"Run! Run! Run!" screamed Kirby, carrying 455 pizza bases.
"Yoshi!" said Yoshi. "We haven't even read the clue yet!"
"I mean from the Italian chefs!" said Kirby, struggling to hold the 276 pizza bases. "They're chasing us with their smart ovens and easy-microwaves!"
"Yoshi hup Yoshi!" screamed Yoshi. "We have to go to Yoshi's Island! That's a great place to go to, because it's my home town!"
"That's great, Yoshi, but how are we going to get away from those two ugly Italian chefs?" asked Kirby, balancing the 180 pizzas on one hand.
Kirby looked back at the chefs, who drew rolling pins, from their overalls and made angry Italian remarks at them.
"Yoshi her Yoshi!" said Yoshi. "Maybe you should reason with them!"
"Good thinking!" said Kirby. "I have a Bachelor of Arts in Italian! We better start running!"
Kirby and Yoshi started running.
"Yoshi!" said Yoshi. "Then talk to them!"
"La vostra madre è una balena e dovrebbe essere così grassa averli due asini ugly come bambini!" screamed Kirby, running away from Mario and Luigi. "Your mother is a whale, and she would have to be so fat to have you two ugly donkeys as children!"
"Yoshi?" asked Yoshi. "What did you say to them?"
"That they should stop chasing us, and we need to have some nice breakfast!" said Kirby,
Mario and Luigi threw their rolling pins behind them, and took out knives and started to run faster.
"Non si preoccupi! Siete soltanto ugly quanto due asini coperti in fango e coperti di leeches!" said Kirby, worried. "Don't worry! You're only as ugly as two donkeys covered in mud and covered with leeches!"
"Yoshi?" asked Yoshi. "What did you say then?"
"Stop chasing us! Your cooking is beautiful!" said Kirby.
Mario and Luigi threw away the knives and got out bazookas, and started firing randomly at Kirby and Yoshi.
"Yoshi, Yoshi hur!" said Yoshi. "Wow, when they're angry as that they look like two donkeys covered in mud and covered with leeches!"
"Why are they chasing us?" said Kirby. "We don't have any of their pizzas!"
"Yoshi?" "We don't?"
"Uh… I dropped them? Heh… heh… LOOK, A CLUE!"

Link and Jigglypuff
Currently in 2nd Place
Link read the clue, as Jigglypuff picked up a spear. "You must now fly to Yoshi's Island, and find Shy Guy's fruit farm where you will receive your next clue."
"Jigglypuff, what's that?" asked Link.
"Jig Ig Iggly Jiggly!" said Jigglypuff. "This is a spear, and this is a poison coated arrow."
"Jigglypuff, weapons in the wrong hand can be dangerous!" said Link. "You'd better dispose of that!" said Link.
Jigglypuff threw the arrow and the spear straight in front of her.

Kirby and Yoshi
Currently in 1st Place
"Hey look, Mario and Luigi are asleep!" said Kirby, eating a few cows.

Link and Jigglypuff
Currently in 2nd Place
"Uh, next time: don't throw it at people," said Link. "NO! DON'T STAB YOURSELF! STOP! Okay, throw it at the Mario bros. BUT DON'T SLOW US DOWN!"

Samus and Zelda
Currently in 3rd Place
"Look, down the hill is Link and Jigglypuff!" shouted Zelda.
Samus and Zelda sprinted down the hill, pushing Link and Jigglypuff aside.
"Get off the road, old deranged ladies!" screamed Link, waving his fist above his head.

Kirby and Yoshi
Currently in 1st Place
"Hi, we'd like a taxi!" said Kirby. "Okay, it's arriving now? Thanks!"
A taxi appeared right in front of them. Samus and Zelda ran down the hill, diving for the taxi.
"Our taxi!" screamed Samus, jumping over Kirby and Yoshi, grabbing the door.
"Hey, it was our taxi first!" said Kirby.
"Nuh-uh sister," said Zelda. "We saw it first!"
"Hello? We called the taxi!" said Kirby.
"You havin' a go at me yo'?" asked Samus.
"Yeah, you pathetic street-person impersonator!" said Kirby.
"Bring it on bih!" screamed Zelda.
Kirby ran over to the door and looked at the taxi driver.
"Would you rather have me and Yoshi, the ones who booked the taxi in the taxi, or would you rather have that aggressive weird team in your taxi?" asked Kirby.
"The latter," laughed Diddy Kong, whose face looked like a mask today. "THE LATTER! IT'S CHOP TIME FOR YOU SAMUS AND ZELDA! VICTORY IS FINALLY MINE!"
Samus and Zelda looked at each other puzzled, and then stepped into the taxi.

Ness and Mewtwo
Currently in 3rd Place
"You must now fly to Yoshi's Island, and find Shy Guy's fruit farm where you will receive your next clue," read Mewtwo.
"Let's go!" said Ness.
"Me and Ness really have to be more aggressive. We won the first leg, and from there we haven't been coming close. Sure, fourth is a good spot, but when in the last leg there are four people left, coming fourth won't help you!" said Mewtwo.
"Look! There are the others!"

Kirby and Yoshi
Currently in 2nd Place
"Here's a taxi!" said Kirby.
Kirby and Yoshi hopped into the taxi, when they saw Link and Jigglypuff, followed by Ness and Mewtwo.
"Help!" screamed Link, grabbing Jigglypuff and almost choking her.
Ness and Mewtwo were really determined to get ahead.
"Yoshi!" shouted Yoshi. "Get into our taxi!"
"Are you sure about this, Yoshi?" asked Kirby.
Link threw a bomb at Ness, and then ran into the taxi.

Nana and Popo
Currently in 5th Place
Nana grabbed the clue, read it, and ran down the hill.
"Taxi!" screamed Popo.
The taxi that Ness and Mewtwo ordered pulled over the curb, and Popo opened the door and got in.
"Hey! That's our taxi!" screamed Ness.
"Not anymore! I stole the taxi!" said Nana, poking his tongue out as the taxi drove off.
"What do you mean?" asked Popo. "I was the one who flagged down the taxi
and got in!"
"No, Popo, I stole the taxi," boasted Nana.
"How can I stand being with you?" asked Popo.
"Because I can kill you!" said Nana.
"Of course," said Popo quickly.

Samus and Zelda
Currently in 1st Place
"Those people are sure pathetic shrimps!" said Samus. "We deserved the taxi."
"Oh yes," said the suspicious taxi driver in a charming, witty tone. "But we're going to pull over now!"
"What's happening?" asked Zelda.
"This is a 12 mg dose of shwanicillim in an injection, which will make you depressed," said Lu- uh… Lu-taxi driver. "It will make you depressed, and slowly rot away your body, until you finally die. Why did I trust you Samus? All we were trying to get in front of you, and now my shoulder is dislocated, and it hurts like hell. After I inject you Samus with this lethal dose of shwanicillim the monkey on my back will stop bugging me, and I will be the person to kill Samus! AFTER I INJECT THIS NEEDLE AND PUSH IT INTO YOUR BODY, HOLD IT FOR EIGHT SECONDS, YOU WILL COLLAPSE ON THE FLOOR AND START SPEAKING GERMAN AND THEN YOU WILL DIE-A!" Luigi cackled evilly.
"Eight seconds?" said Zelda.
"No more, no less," said Luigi.

Kirby and Yoshi
Currently in 1st Place
"Jig Ig Iggly?" asked Jigglypuff. "What's that?"
"Oh, it looks like a man in a gorilla suit with a needle injected in him for eight seconds, and he seems to be muttering German," said Kirby, looking in front of him.
The car ran over Luigi, and Kirby looked back.
"And now he's rotting away, and he appears to be dead!" said Kirby.

Samus and Zelda
Currently in 3rd Place
"And look, it's the annual '567,256,142,338 elephants marching down this road' parade!" said Zelda. "I wonder if Luigi knows."
"He knows," said Samus, looking out of the window.

Ganondorf and Young Link
Currently in 6th Place
"Look what I did last night!" said Ganondorf.
"What, a dog?" asked Young Link.
"No, close, I made cat shaped cookies, which make people pass out if they try it!" said Ganondorf. "Sounds good Young Link?"
Ganondorf looked at Young Link, who passed out on the ground.
"Now why did I know that was going to happen?" asked Ganondorf.
Young Link woke up.
"Because you hit me with a baseball bat 80 times?" asked Ganondorf.

Peach and Bowser
Currently in 7th Place
"Peach, I'm running for Governor of California! So when the film crew are filming us, I want you to talk about how good I am!" whispered Bowser, reading the clue. "You have to talk about the nice things I've done in this race."
"Hi, I'm Bowser! I'm a nice guy! I donated a million dollars to the Congo Jungle orphanage! Do you want a really bad, mean leader running your state? Or do you want Bowser! Now I interview Peach, a person that has not been influenced by me in anyway!" said Bowser, smiling.
"Hi, I'm Peach! Before I was fat, dumb and ugly, but after I ate 122 cans of canned fruit, I'm fat as ever! I joined a weight loss program, and now I can hear out of my va-" said Peach, before having her mouth covered by Bowser.

Falcon and DK
Currently in Last Place
"You must now fly to Yoshi's Island, and find Shy Guy's fruit farm where you will receive your next clue," read Falcon.
"Come on! Let's try to get better than 2nd Last place!" said Donkey Kong.
"Hey, has it ever occurred to you that we come 2nd last every time, and then we eventually- GAAAHH!" screamed Falcon. "What was that!"
"Falcon, I think that was the electric shock collar!" said DK. "I felt it too!"
Who could've done such a horrible thing? Tune in next time to find out!

THE END

Falcon and DK won the million dollars.

Really.

Please?

Okay, fine then.

Kirby and Yoshi
Currently in 1st Place
"There's the airport!" said Kirby.
Kirby grabbed Yoshi, threw money to the taxi driver, and then ran out.

Link and Jigglypuff
Currently in 2nd Place
"Come on! Kirby and Yoshi just ran out!" said Link.
"Jig Ig Iggly Jig?" asked Jigglypuff. "Are you the magical cherry?"
"Jigglypuff, I think you're hallucinating. I'm thinking that you're hallucinating about the magical cherry again!" said Link.
"Jigglypuff… I'm… the magical cherry…" said the magical cherry.
"Jigglypuff, you're not going to achieve things in life if you listen to a magical cherry, it's not real. If you don't do something about it, your life will crash and burn, and before you know it, you'll have nothing left! Stop listening to it, and get in the airport!" said Link, with a harsh tone.
"Jigglypuff, you're not going to achieve things in life if you… don't… burn… the airport…" said the wise cherry.
"Jig Ig Jig!" said Jigglypuff. "Yes, wise master."
"You just grossly misheard what I said, didn't you? And you're going to kill Pikachu or something. Don't! Listen. To. Each. Word. That. Your. Friend. Link. Says. Understand?"
"And… kill… your friend… Link… understand?"
Jigglypuff nodded happily. She pointed to Link's sword.
"You want my sword?" said Link. "Okay. It can't hurt."

Samus and Zelda
Currently in 3rd Place
"Oh goddess!" said Zelda in disgust. "Link is lying in a pool of blood! Link! My saviour!"
"Right," said Samus. "You worry about 'friends' and 'values' and 'ethics' and I'll get the million dollars."
"Okay," said Zelda.
"And you won't be able to beat up certain people," added Samus.

Link and Jigglypuff
Fortunately for Jigglypuff, a mysterious woman in pink threw a dagger at Link before he could get back up. Her mission was accomplished!

Samus and Zelda
"That was a waste of a dagger," said Zelda.
"Yeah, you… idiot," muttered Samus.

Ness and Mewtwo
Currently in 4th Place
"If we run straight for that giant cannon," said Ness, "we'll be able to beat Kirby and Yoshi to the clue!"
"We won't!" said Mewtwo. "That dead body is in our way; we'll lose 5 seconds!"
"Let's use our psychokinetic powers to throw the elf into that convenient pit of piranhas!" suggested Ness as they ran.
They did.
TEAM POWER!

But then a sudden plot inconsistency made them get a bonus life after Link pressed the continue button.

Nana and Popo
Currently in 5th Place
"If we win the million dollars, what should we do with it?" asked Popo.
"What do you mean, we?" asked Nana. "I've done all the work here! When we're at home, I have to do all the cleaning, the ironing, the washing up, and the laundry! I always do the work!"
"Well, actually I do the ironing the washing up and the laundry, and when I ask you to do the cleaning up, you just throw a plate of china at the floor!" said Popo, angrily.
"Well, you get the point, I've done all the team work here!" said Nana.
"No, I don't get the point!" said Popo.
"Well you're the one who's been delaying us!" screamed Nana.
"Actually, not really, remember those 10 minutes you wasted before we departed last leg because you wanted to shout at Falcon and Donkey Kong?" asked Popo. "And remember 5 minutes ago, when we arrived at the airport, but you insisted that I had to be tied to the chair, and we had to stay and argue!"
"You could have got out of the knot!" said Nana.
"Well, you would've punched me!"
"You could've ducked!"
"But then you would drive a saw into my neck! See the scar from the operation trying to get out?" screamed Popo.
In the light of the full moon, Nana transformed into Were-Killer Bear, Slayer of Men!

"Hi, can I have a flight to Yoshi's Island?" asked Link, as Jigglypuff found out how to open a giant can of gasoline. "7:45 AM? Okay.
Link and Jigglypuff
On 1st Shy Guy Air Flight
Link looked at Jigglypuff spreading gasoline around the airport floor really fast, and then went into shock.
"Jigglypuff! Don't do that!" said Link. "It's not safe to spread gasoline around. You better find a way of disposing it!"
"That's right," said George Poker, spokesman for the gasoline safety company. "You should dispose of it quickly, or pour out all of the content, because that barrel is filling a lot of airport space, which makes less space for passengers to walk on. You better do something quickly about it!" said Link.
"Now make sure to put an explosive on runway," said the cherry.

Ness and Mewtwo

Samus and Zelda and Nana and Popo are on the 8:15 AM flight, which arrives at 10:25 AM local time.

"Hey, I'm going to have a smoke!" said Peach, lighting a cigarette.
"But you never smoke!" said Bowser.
"Once I tried to smoke Donkey Kong, but he tasted like faeces!" said Peach.
"Those were your faeces, Peach!" screamed Donkey Kong.
"True!" said Peach, throwing the cigarette out of the window, causing the whole airport to engulf in flames.

Ganondorf ran up to a person that worked for Shy Guy Air.
"Is there a flight leaving anywhere?" asked Ganondorf.
"A flight is leaving right now, to Mushroom Kingdom!" screamed the airport worker, before they got separated by a line of flames.
"This has got to be the worst day!" said Ganondorf. "We come to the airport last, and now we're going to Mushroom Kingdom, and we're trying to book a ticket from there!"

"Young Link and Ganondorf are flying to Mushroom Kingdom, where they must try and book a flight to Yoshi's Island to get back on task!" said Master Hand.

"Hey, excuse me, we were taking that one!" said Kirby, loading his bags in the back of the taxi. "Actually, you can take that!"
"No, actually, I insist that you go in that cab!" said Ness, looking a bit alarmed at the sight of a taxi driver taking out a knife.
"Yoshi hup!" said Yoshi. "Don't worry! He won't take your life!"
"Yeah!" said Kirby, nodding quickly.
"No, really," said Mewtwo, pushing Kirby and Yoshi into the cab.
"Ah! Here's a taxi!" said Ness.
Using their psychic powers, they created a wonderous flying carpet and save the kingdom.

"Hi, I've got a secret for you!" said the taxi driver.

"Uh… Mario… what are you trying to do to us?" asked Kirby.
"Oh-a! I just-a thought we would be-a friends you know-a!" said Mario. "Here-a! Have a non-tampered at all pizza!" said Mario.
Kirby looked amazed in hunger, while Yoshi looked at the rainbow of pills dropped on top of the pizza.
"No! No!" screamed Yoshi.
"Here! You should try!" said Kirby, shoving a piece into Yoshi's mouth.
"Mmm… drugged pizza…" said Kirby.
"Yoshi!" said Yoshi. "That did taste nice!"
"You should feel the effect in three seconds…" said Mario, grinning evilly.

30 seconds later…

"Do you feel anything?" asked Mario.
"Can I have more?" said Kirby, licking his lips.

Link and Jigglypuff

"Well, Falco, it was nice of you to drop by, but… we have to go to an important conference!" said Link.
Link opened the door on the dirt road, and jumped on top of Kirby and Yoshi's taxi while holding Jigglypuff, and then jumped in.
"Hi Kirby! Hi Yoshi!" said Link. "Who's the driver?" whispered Link quietly.
"Mario!" replied Kirby.
"Well, Mario, it was nice of you to drop by, but I just need to stretch my legs now!" said Kirby, winding down the window, jumping onto Ness and Mewtwo's carpet.
"Yoshi!" said Yoshi. "Um… yeah… my bones are aching… so I'll just step out now!"
Yoshi jumped into Ness and Mewtwo's carpet.

"Road Block!" said Master Hand. "In each road block, one member from each team must complete a set task!
"In this Road Block, teams must take a bunch of grapes from one of these trees, and make a fruit necklace using them! They must loop at least 20 grapes in the necklace! If a grape bursts, an official will take three grapes away from the necklace. This task will take fine hands, and a lot of patience!"

"Jig!" said Jigglypuff. "I'll do it!"
"Are you sure?" asked Link.
"Jig Iggly Jig! Ig?" said Jigglypuff. "I just need a bit of alcohol to make my hands a bit loose! Do you have any?"
"Do I?" asked Link. "I have heaps in my backpack! Here, take any of these bottles!"
Link looked at the camera and smiled.
"Not that I'm an alcoholic!" said Link hastily. "Not! Alcoholic!"

"Taxi!" screamed Nana. "Ah! Here's one!"
"Excuse me," said Zelda. "That's our taxi."
"No it isn't. We saw it first!" said Nana.
"Then how did our luggage end up in the boot of the taxi?" asked Zelda.
"I don't know! Maybe you're a big b1#!" said Nana. "I'm getting in!"
"No, actually we were already getting into the taxi, until Mrs. Mental came and tried to take an occupied taxi!" said Samus.
Samus and Zelda stepped in the taxi and drove away.
"Well, that's rude!" said Nana. "Who would want to be even related to her?"
"It could be worse," said Popo, trying to hold up Nana's heavy backpack.

"But Kirby? Isn't he…" asked Popo.
"JUST DO IT! JUST SHUT UP AND DO IT!" said Nana.
"Kirby… hold these for me…" said Popo, putting them in Kirby's hands.
"Mmm… free grapes…" said Kirby, eating them up.
Popo looked back at Kirby, and looked in shock.
"Look Nana! He just ate our grapes!" said Popo, angrily.
"WHO?" asked Nana.
"Kirby! The one you asked me to give the grapes to!" said Popo.
"WHY DID YOU NEED TO GIVE THE GRAPES TO KIRBY?" asked Nana, shouting.
"BECAUSE YOU TOLD ME TO!" said Popo.
"Gosh, there's no need to shout!" said Nana.
"I hate you Nana! I hate you Nana!" shouted Popo.
Nana started crying. "You blame everything on me. Everything!"
"Lies!" accused Popo.
"LIE THIS!" said Nana, revealing the SMG she had snuck past Customs.

"Samus, I'll do it!" said Zelda.

Peach and Bowser ran into the taxi.
"Now Peach, do your campaign ad!" said Bowser.
The cameraman pointed on Peach.
"Hello, I'm Peach! I think you should vote for Bowser, because yesterday I tried to microwave peas in the oven, but they were still frozen, I microwaved them for about twenty seconds and then when I ate them, they tasted like peanut butter on toast with jam and donkey brain! And that's my report on the Grand Canyon!" said Peach.

"Jiggly!" said Jigglypuff. "Just wait, um… I need to talk to a friend!"
"That's okay, Jigglypuff! I'll just toss an apple around," said Link. "We have to search all of that tall field, and try to find a clue. Oh look! It's Falcon and Donkey Kong! You know, I think I should give Zelda's racquet back to Peach. She's going to go nuts; maybe kill me if I don't give it back!"
"That's okay Jigglypuff! …Just toss an apple… to… Falcon and Donkey Kong…'s… nuts…" said the wise magical cherry.

"Jig Ig Jig!" said Jigglypuff. "Hide behind this clue box!"
"Hey, where are they?" asked Donkey Kong.
"I dunno," said Falcon. "Let's go back!"
Falcon and Donkey Kong walked back to the road block, but then got lost, and wandered aimlessly a lot.
"Jig Iggly Jig?" asked Jigglypuff. "Where is the clue box?"
"I don't know!" said Link, leaning on the clue box.
"Hmm…" said Jigglypuff, tapping her hand on the clue box.
"Hey look! Sky writing!" said Link, still feeling the clue box.
"Jig… Jig… Ig… Jig…" read Jigglypuff. "Y-O-U-'R-E…"
"Leaning… on… the… clue box…" read Link, leaning on the clue box.
"Jig! Iggly Puh Jig Iggly Jig!" said Jigglypuff, accidentally taking a clue out of the clue box. "Oh! What a co-incidence."
Link looked back up at the sky writing.
"Yes… that's you… Link… the clue box… is right… behind you!" said Link, turning around.
"Well shucks, it is!" said Link. "Come on! Let's see."
"Ig Jig!" said Jigglypuff. "Detour!"
"Hit or Miss?" said Link. (He was reading the clue, by the way.)

"Detour! Each team must decide between performing two tasks!" said Master Hand. "In this detour… Hit or Miss!
"In Hit, teams must walk 500 metres to this dirt road out the back, and try to throw a piece of fruit at a target which has an egg inside it! Once each member of each team throws fruit at the target and hits it, they will receive their next clue! This task may seem easy, but since they must throw it from eight metres, the task might be hard!
"In Miss, teams must survive for three minutes in an enclosed cage. This seems easy, except that there is a rabid Shy Guy with a big stick trying to kill them. As an added incentive, if the Shy Guy's stick hits someone, it activates all shock collars that anyone might be wearing, and the clock will reset!
And yes, I know that DK and Falcon will get shocked when anyone gets hit, but that's part of the excitement! After three minutes, the Shy Guy will be squashed by a large egg containing the next clue!"

"Let's do Miss!" said Link.

Kirby and Yoshi
Grapes: 19
"Come on! One more!" said Kirby.
Yoshi put a thread through the last grape, and received the clue.
Kirby and Yoshi
Second to finish Road Block

Ness and Mewtwo
Third to finish Road Block
"Ness, you do realise that you can't take that rake?" asked Mewtwo.
"Oh…" said Ness, dropping the rake somewhere.

Falcon
Grapes: 2
"Quickly!" said Falcon. "Let's do this Road Block!"
Falcon ran over to the Road Block, and started to finely push the grapes through the pin.

Zelda
Grapes: 15
"Hey Zelda, I wonder what this button does?" asked Samus, winking.
"Oh, I wonder what?" asked Zelda, winking back.
"Let's just press and find out!" said Samus.
"HA HA HA!" said Samus, pressing the button.
"GAAH!" screamed Donkey Kong.
"Oh no!" cried Zelda. "What did mean ol' Samus do to you?" asked Zelda, in her cutie baby voice. "You are never going to get hurt!"
Zelda hugged Donkey Kong.
"Are you sure you don't like Donkey Kong?" asked Samus, smiling.
"No!" screamed Zelda, smacking Donkey Kong. "Oh, what have I done! What have I done? NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO-HOH-HOOOOOH-HOOOOOH-FALCONANDDKWINTHERACE-NOOOO-HOH-HOH-OOOOOOGH!"

Nana
4th to Finish Road Block
"Look! I did it!" said Nana. "And I did it without your help!"
"Well, actually I did 18 of those grapes, and those two you did, you were just holding your hands…" said Popo, who suddenly was stopped by an iron Bar.

Samus and Zelda
5th to Finish Road Block
"…OOOOOHOOOOHOOOOOOOOOOOO NOOOOOOO!" screamed Zelda.

Kirby and Yoshi

"Yoshi, I've hurled my fruit at the egg, now you have to, and we'll get the clue!" said Kirby.
"Yoshi!" said Yoshi. "This should be easy."

Link and Jigglypuff
2:13
"Jigglypuff! Just roll out of the way!" said Link. "Jigglypuff!"
Jigglypuff ran right next to the Shy Guy.
"And now you die, Jigglypuff…" said Falco.
A Shy Guy came in, whistling, pushed Falco out of the cage.
The Shy Guy said some random gibberish. "Oh what do you know! Look at the time! Here's your clue!"
"Jig!" said Jigglypuff, stepping out of the cage on an injured Falco, followed by Link, who dropped his sword on Falco.

"Teams must now walk twenty metres or three hundred and eighty metres to 'Yoshi's hut', a resort, where the pit stop for this leg of the race is. Warning, the last team to arrive, may be eliminated!" said Master Hand.

"Quickly!" said Link. "We have to get there as fast as we can!"
Link ran into the hut, and stepped on the world map.
"Link and Jigglypuff, you are team number one!" said Master Hand. "And some good news, you win a trip to Aqua Star, the resort centre of the Nintendo world!"
"Wow, thanks!" said Link. "Now we can go into the resort and we can check out the pool and everything! When I'm sleeping, I know we'll be a head, and I hope we'll have another killer leg. Me and Jigglypuff are prepared to win!" said Link.
"Good on you!" said Master Hand.
"When I'm sleeping… kill me…" said the cherry.
"Jig Ig Jig!" said Jigglypuff. "Okay, I'll obey you o' great cherry!"
"Has Jigglypuff been drinking?" asked Master Hand.

Kirby and Yoshi
Currently in 2nd Place
"Great, Yoshi! Just great! You've been trying this for ten minutes now!" said Kirby. "And now Samus and Zelda, and Ness and Mewtwo have showed up!"
"Yoshi!" screamed Yoshi. Yoshi threw an egg, and got the target.
Kirby grabbed the clue and started to run, when he saw Samus and Zelda finish the detour.

Samus and Zelda
Currently in 3rd Place
"Get em!" said Samus. "They're in first place!"
Samus ran up to Yoshi, and tackled him, while Zelda tripped up Kirby.
"Hey!" screamed Kirby, inhaling Samus's helmet while running, and spat it over there.
"We gotta get my helmet!" said Samus, dragging Zelda along. "Hey! Hey! Leave it alone! Hey! Don't play soccer with it!"
Samus got her phaser gun, and shot at the Shy Guys, and then put her helmet back on.

Kirby and Yoshi
Currently in 2nd Place
"Come on!" said Kirby, running into 'Yoshi's hut'.
"Kirby and Yoshi, you are team number two!" said Master Hand. "And come on in! Samus and Zelda. You are team number three!"

Ness and Mewtwo
½ completed Hit
"Yeah!" said Mewtwo, hitting his target. "Oh look! It's Nana and Popo! Quickly get it, Ness!"
Ness piffed a watermelon at the target, and hit it.
"Come on!" said Ness, taking the clue.

Ganondorf and Young Link
Currently in Last Place
"Come on! Young Link!" said Ganondorf. "Taxi!"

Nana and Popo
Currently in 5th Place
Popo threw an apple at the target, when Nana jumped up and stopped it.
"Why did you do that?" asked Popo. "It was going at the target!"
"No it didn't!" said Nana.
"Then why did you do it?" asked Popo.
"Because…" said Nana.
"Look there!" said Popo.
Nana turned around, and Popo hit the target.
"HEY! WHY DID YOU DO THAT?" asked Nana.
"Because we want to win?" asked Popo.

Ness and Mewtwo
Currently in 4th Place
"Ness and Mewtwo, you are team number four!" said Master Hand.
"Well, we really wanted to finish one or two places higher," said Mewtwo. "But at least we're still in the race!"

Nana and Popo
Currently in 5th Place
"Hey, here's the pit stop!" said Nana.
"I'm glad you're not angry anymore over that stupid thing!" laughed Popo.
"I STILL AM!" screamed Nana.
"Nana and Popo, you are team number five!" said Master Hand.

Peach and Bowser
6th to complete Road Block
"Yay!" said Peach.
"Come on! Let's go!" said Bowser.
"Here's the clue!" said Peach, who appeared over at the clue box, and then appeared back to Bowser.
"Why can't you do that normally?" asked Bowser.
"Detour!" said Peach.
"Let's do miss!" said Bowser.

Young Link and Ganondorf
Currently in Last Place
"Look! There's still Falcon and Donkey Kong!" said Young Link.
"Quickly!" said Ganondorf, opening a clue. "It's a road block!"

Falcon and DK
Grapes: 18
"We've lost grapes 23 times, because people keep on zapping us. If we could just put on two more!" said DK.
"Yes!" said Falcon, getting the clue.

Peach and Bowser
"Peach, you have to run away from the Shy Guy!" said Bowser. "He's not your friend! We just have to do it for three minutes!"
"But the bees, Bowser, the bees!" said Peach.
"Come on, Peach, dodge!" said Bowser. "It's been thirty seconds! Just five more of that!"

Falcon and DK
"Me and Donkey Kong thought we were done for, but we had a ray of hope, seeing Young Link and Ganondorf getting out of the taxi!" said Falcon.
"We did hit, because we thought it would be easy!" said DK.

Young Link and Ganondorf
Last to finish Road Block
"Come on! Let's do it!" screamed Ganondorf.

Peach and Bowser
Time: 2:57
"Three more seconds!" said Bowser. "Yes!"
Peach and Bowser ran over to the pit stop.
"Peach and Bowser, you are team number one!" said Peach.
"Are you okay Peach?" asked Master Hand.
"WE CAME FIRST! WE CAME FIRST!" said Peach, jumping with joy.
Master Hand sighed, and then started to talk.
"Peach and Bowser, you are team number one, and you get to stay in this resort for the night!" said Master Hand.
"Wow! A resort!" said Peach. "I love resorts! They remind me of apples! Once I played a ukulele at my friend's wedding, but I remembered it wasn't my wedding, so I ate the wedding cake, and ran for the hills in Honolulu!" Master Hand and Bowser made cardboard cut-outs of themselves, and stuck the cut-outs and Peach in a room behind them.
"And that's why quality eco-grooming is like eating a pizza!" said Peach.

Falcon and DK
Half Done
"Me and Young Link are done, and I think one team is going to be eliminated, so I'm trying to get Donkey Kong to finish up quickly, so we can try and get third or second last!" said Falcon.
"YEAH!" screamed Donkey Kong. Donkey Kong and Falcon ran off the road, and started heading for the pit stop. But moments later, Young Link and Ganondorf got the clue, and charged towards them.

Young Link and Ganondorf
Currently in Last Place
"Let's go!" said Ganondorf, sprinting towards Falcon and Donkey Kong. Falcon and DK saw Ganondorf charging towards them, so Falcon started to reach in his handbag for items, and threw out a comb, a teddy bear, eyeliner, lip gloss, and…
"LIP STICK!" said Falcon, running.
Falcon smeared lip stick in Ganondorf's eyes, so Young Link stopped.
"You have lip stick, lip gloss and eyeliner?" asked Donkey Kong.
"Uh… here's the finish line!" said Falcon.

"Falcon and Donkey Kong, you are team number seven, and come on in, Young Link and Ganondorf!" said Master Hand. "I'm sorry to tell you this, Young Link and Ganondorf, but you have been eliminated from the race. I also have some bad news, Falcon and Donkey Kong, you will have to take off your electric shock collars."
"Wait, how is that bad news?" asked Falcon.
"Thing about it," said Master Hand's

"Well, we had some fun, I poisoned a few people, I almost made Young Link evil, but I think that the race ended for us, when the airport blew up, and we had to go to mushroom kingdom. Too bad," said Ganondorf.
"Well, I didn't actually ever want to spend time with him, with all that dragging and stuff and…"
Uh… Ad Break Time…

"Hello! There's all these new features in these automatic knives!" said a TV presenter.
"Who wants an automatic knife?" asked a woman.
"Uh… Thank you for your time…" said the presenter, smiling.
