Yoshi's Adventure: Ankylosaurus Desert (Level 2)

Yoshi continued rolling down the sandy path in his green-spotted egg, going at a fast-paced speed. He pushed the gusty winds ahead of him, and he turned sharply to the right, entering the village he glimpsed from before. Hopping out of his egg, Yoshi walked around the village, noticing the white buildings sporting a stylish red roof. Dr. Hoshi called out to Yoshi from the villa house all the way at the end of the western portion of the village. Yoshi ran over to greet Dr. Hoshi, as well as Birdo and Peppy. Dr. Hoshi told Yoshi that he has done some research in the area, and that there were puzzles ahead. Nodding, Yoshi suggested that he and the others take a rest for now. Looking at each other, and nodding in agreement, Yoshi's friends all went into the villa house, where they would prepare for tomorrow.

After taking a refreshing nap, Birdo made her friends breakfast. Munching down on delicious bacon and toast, as well as pancakes and drinking some orange juice, Yoshi and his friends all headed away from the seemingly deserted village, heading off together into the gusty desert.

Yoshi, of course being the leader of the group, ran ahead, but Dr. Hoshi followed closely. He told Yoshi that he'll help him clear through the puzzles. Yoshi smiled, and he and Dr. Hoshi braved through the gusty, windy desert. As the two Yoshisauruses ran ahead, Dr. Hoshi tripped over a pile of bones, landing face first into the sand. Yoshi stopped and turned around, picking Dr. Hoshi up to his feet, only to be attacked by a red, yellow-spotted Piranha Plant. Yoshi screamed,and he let go of Dr. Hoshi, whacking the Piranha Plant away with his tail. The Piranha Plant hissed, and it hid back into the sand.

Yoshi sighed of relief, and he noticed that Dr. Hoshi headed forwards. Gasping, Yoshi followed closely, with peppy and Birdo coming from behind. As Yoshi ran through the steep sand, he jumped up a blue, horizontal platform on its side, grabbing the top of the ledge of a blue, vertical platform. Getting to the top, Yoshi was astonished to see that Dr. Hoshi was running down the surface of the blue chamber. Yoshi sighed, and he ran after his friend, when he suddenly fell through a hole in the surface, falling down to the hard, cold floor. Moaning in pain, Yoshi got up on his two feet and shook his head, looking up as the sand being blown by the gusty winds covered the hole in the ceiling. Sighing, Yoshi looked at the path in front of him and started running.

It was then that Yoshi tripped over a small rock and started tumbling down a slide. He screamed as he went over a loop, and then went soaring over the deep canvas below him, landing roughly on the other side. Getting up and dusting his legs, Yoshi looked around, seeing the path turning left. Yoshi headed to the left, and he held on closely to the wall as he tried to avoid being crushed by the wall on his other side. Slowly turning to the left, Yoshi squeezed out of the tight spot, sighing as he looked behind him to see the walls shutting. He turned around and jumped up on the blue platform, seeing a hole in the wall. He got on his fours, and the green Yoshisaurus crept through the hole in the wall, seeing a red door in midair.

Puzzled, Yoshi decided to take action by grabbing one of his green-spotted eggs and tossing them right below the red, floating door. It was then that a blue platform appeared right under the door, and Yoshi jumped up, grabbing the ledge and getting up. He opened the red door, and went through it, the door closing as Yoshi walked in. Yoshi cautiously walked down the dark path as he could see a light. Turning to the right, Yoshi jumped over a small pit in the middle of the path and then turned to the left, seeing that the light was coming through a small creak. Yoshi took out one of his green-spotted eggs again and tossed it at the creak, causing it to break and reveal a hole. Yoshi gulped, and he ran through the hole, reemerging in front of a tall, golden pyramid.

Yoshi was in awe as he approached the entrance of the grand structure. It was then that Yoshi turned around, much to his delight, to see that his friends - Dr. Hoshi, Birdo, and Peppy - all showed up. Together again, Yoshi and his friends all entered into the gigantic pyramid, preparing what may lie in store for them...
