Game Watch: Let Chapter 5 begin!
After the long tour of Hyrule, Fox and Samus returned to the Yoshi Racing Arena. Ness had done his job well; the next race was about to begin, and people were settled in, bets were almost done, and the yoshis were ready to go. Ness greeted the breeder and princess as they entered the arena.
"Ness, what a spectacular job!" Fox cried. He had never known Ness to do his job so well.
"There are so many people Fox!" Ness said, pointing to the track. About a hundred people lined around, and talk ran rampant throughout the arena. Fox smiled.
"This way," He said, heading into the stable, with Ness and Samus following. "So, Samus, you still wish to place a bet?"
"I do," Samus said.
"Is betting done?" A voice asked. Fox turned around; it was Jigglypuff.
"No, not yet. Why do you ask?" Fox asked, looking at her as she bounced up and down.
"I wish to place bet. I observed yoshis, and I confident brown yoshi take first. I place 600 rupees on brown yoshi."
"Does your master know your betting?" Fox asked her. She nodded. Fox turned to Samus. "Which yoshi shall you bet on?"
"I trust this little one. 1000 rupees on the brown yoshi."
"Right! Ness?"
"Got it!" Ness said, writing the bets on a piece of paper. Ness received the money from Jigglypuff and Samus, and a few minuets later, the yoshis were led out, and the race began.
The yoshis were good, and the race looked like it was going to be a close one. However, the brown yoshi pulled through, and won the race, its odds six to one. About 10 people, including Jigglypuff and Samus, had won the bet.
"Congratulations!" Ness cried, hugging Jigglypuff. Jigglypuff was ecstatic.
"I won bet! I won bet!" She kept shouting, now eagerly waiting to go to the castle to see the look of pride on her master's face. She and Samus happily accepted the rupees they won. "How much I win?"
"Jigglypuff, you won 3600 rupees, and Samus, you won a flat 6000. Congratulations!" Fox said, smiling. Jigglypuff nodded in farewell, and vanished into the leaving crowd, which pretty much consisted of moans and complaints. After everyone left, Fox turned to Ness. "Would you—"
"Clean up? Sure, you guys go do something," Ness said, smiling. Fox thanked him and turned to Samus.
"Would you like to walk around the field? Your money will be safe here."
"But of course," Samus said, smiling. She took Fox's offering arm, and they set out.
Jigglypuff headed into the castle town just as the sun was setting. She headed for the smithy and went inside. Walking up to the desk, she rang the bell and waited. Bowser came from the back.
"Ah, Jigglypuff. How may I help you?" Bowser asked. Jigglypuff pulled out three large green rupees.
"I wish to pay for fixing Master's sword. I win bet, so I can pay."
"A yoshi race ended, didn't it?" Bowser asked. Jigglypuff nodded. "Well, it doesn't look like you won't take the money back, so I'll have no choice but to take it." He grabbed the three rupees and placed them in the register, Jigglypuff beamed.
"Thank you. Have good night," she said, and left. Bowser smiled, and turned from the door when it opened again. Roy was there.
"How can I help you Roy?" Bowser asked him. Roy gave a nervous smile.
"Umm…I was wondering if we could stay here," he said. Bowser chuckled.
"But of course, Roy," he said when done with his chuckling. "I close in an hour from now, so grab the doc and be over here before then." Roy nodded, muttered a thanks, and left.
The moon had risen when Fox and Samus decided to take a break. They were at Lake Hylia, observing the moon over the lake. They didn't say anything, until the shaking began.
Fox and Samus lost their balance as the very earth beneath them began shaking. A little ahead of them, a jagged piece of earth rose up. D.K. busted out of it, and the shaking ceased.
"Donkey Kong!" Fox cried. "What are you doing here?"
"I'm here for the girl!" He said, pointing to Samus. Fox stepped in front of her.
"You'll have to get past me, first!" he said, taking out his blaster. D.K. sneered.
"Well, it looks like the girl has a bodyguard. Oh well, more fun for me!"
Fox aimed and shot it at D.K. Much to his surprise, D.K. conjured an earth shield strong enough to take the blast. Fox changed tactics and ran to the lake, and began waving his right hand around. He brought up a stream of water and shot it at D.K., knocking the gorilla off his feet. He got up, angrily, and charged at Fox. Fox began running, hoping to tire the gorilla out.
It would've work, but D.K. realized what Fox was doing, and instead tripped him. Samus, who had ran to a hiding spot, cried out, and could only watch in horror as Fox was pounded mercilessly by D.K. After a few minuets, Fox couldn't fight, and collapsed.
D.K., proud of what he did, turned to grab Samus. Cursing the fact that she forgot to wear her Power Suit, she still took a fighting stance. But her fighting skills without the suit were too weak, and she was eventually knocked out by the giant gorilla. D.K. inspected her, and upon seeing she was alive, picked her up, and ran off.
Fox twitched once, and then went still.
Luigi: The first kidnap! Oh no!
Marth: Looks like there's finally trouble in paradise.
Luigi: Poor Fox…
Marth: Review, for Fox's sake.
