"Yes, my lord," blurted out Birdo obediently.
"And you promise you will go only for Mario" replied Wart in a formidably thundering pound of his voice.
"Yes, master." Birdo replied diligently.
"Really?"
"Positive."
"Good. Visiting other worlds are dangerous. No meddling, whatsoever! The costs of tampering with other worlds can have severe consequences!" delineated Wart explicitly.
"Do I have permission from you, O Almighty King Wart?" requested Birdo in her intermittent posh tone.
"Yes you do…"
And so Birdo intrepidly trekked the Overworld for hunt for the Castle of King Toadstool. She had penetrated through the pipe and pummelled down to earth near an anomalous looking mountain.
Where was she?
She dashed forwards, nearing the mountain of magnitude. It was unimaginably vast, of an indomitable size. The summit didn't end in a point, it was almost like a gargantuan hump protruding out from beneath the ground! It was as pink as a spoonbill, it wasn't green! Or pink as herself, really.
And then, she managed to discern orangy-reddy-pinky coloured balls down the side of the mountain.
Berries?
Reluctantly, her spine frigid with consternation, she neared her hands to one of the berries. It was definitely a trap. But she couldn't help it!
King Wart's words echoed in her mind. No meddling, no meddling, no meddling.
She fastened her eyelids; and hoped for the best.
"Oh. Not a trap," she said, relieved and disappointed simultaneously.
And suddenly- BLEURGH!
"AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH!" Birdo screeched in stupefaction.
She looked into her hands and the berry was gone.
And she didn't eat it.
Slowly, she pivoted her head towards the right.
"Hi, I'm Yoshi, who are you?" asked an inexplicably high-pitched voice.
It was the same species as her, except a pristine green colour. He was the one who just ravenously devoured the berry from Birdo's hands! Instantly, he just drifted into her mind…
"Umm, what's your name?" he requested, a bit perplexed by the trance he had put her in.
"Aah" she exclaimed, finally back to her senses. "Birdo, but you can call me Pinky, like my friends and family do." She then replied to Yoshi. "You definitely aren't from this dimension are you…" he managed to indicate.
"HANG ON YOU ARE, BIRDO, AS IN WART'S ONE OF WART'S MINIONS!" shouted Yoshi, in stupefaction. "YOU ARE NOT GETTING RID OF MARIO AND THAT'S THAT." He then followed in anger.
Birdo almost started weeping.
She then knew what to say, but it would be perilous, and would be disobeying Wart's rules.
"Who said I'm here for Mario?" she improvised. "I want to live here!" she explained.
And she wasn't lying.
"Good, cause Mario is my best friend," he then said, reassured.
"Yeah, that's okay cause I'm not your friend, I'm your girlfriend" she blathered dreamily
"What did you just say?" asked Yoshi, surprised.
Birdo's eyes opened wide. She just said that out loud!
"Uh, nothing!" she lied mischievously. She then decided being a girlfriend was not the best idea for her. They were just friends.
