Chapter 3: Unusual Friendship
Bowser Jr ran to his room and slammed the door. He grabbed his book and began reading. Doesn't matter what he does, the word "Super Smash Bros. Brawl" continued to cross his mind. Yet, what struck him the most was his father's negotiation with Ganondorf.
"Hey Jr!" greeted a friendly Yellow Yoshi that appeared from the balcony.
"Get out of my room." warned Bowser Jr.
"What's wrong?"
"You can't be seen here!"
"Don't worry, everyone is checking on Roy. Now tell me, what's the matter?"
"It's just my family." he responded.
"Your family is always like that! Tell me the real reason!"
Bowser Jr flinched from what she said. He can not hide secrets from that Yoshi. He took a deep breath.
"Do you know what 'Super Smash Bros Brawl?' is" he asked
"Bowser never told you? Well, it's sort of a fighting tournament hosted by some guy name 'Master Hand.' Only the best fighters from across the universe can enter. They have the tournament every five years."
Bowser Jr stood mesmerized.
"Is that why my dad is leaving tomorrow?" he asked after he snapped himself.
"And my brother, Green Yoshi, along with Mario, Luigi, and Wario."
"It is where the best fighters go?"
"yes,"
"I want to go."
"You have to be chosen."
"I'm strong enough, I'll show you!"
Bowser Jr quickly threw a punch, but Yellow Yoshi grabbed his fist to stop the punch.
"You must anticipate every move. That is what my brother told me!" added Yellow Yoshi.
"Is your brother good, I never seen him fight."
"He's very good. He was the quarter-finalist in the last Smash Bros Tournament finale."
"Against people from other planets?"
"Yep!"
"I want to go!"
"Me too, that is why I train so hard."
Bowser Jr looked down and sighed.
"What wrong?" asked Yellow Yoshi.
"I suck at fighting." muttered Bowser Jr.
"I can train you! Since your dad is going to be gone and Kamek will have to take care of the Koopalings, we have plenty of time to train."
"I'll think about it."
"Isn't the sunset so pretty!" randomly said Yellow Yoshi who was now staring at the sunset. She sat on the edge of the balcony and stared at the sparkling ocean that is slowly swallowing the sun. Bowser Jr walked up to her.
"Seriously, get out of my room. People think wrong when they see a girl in a boy's room." he said.
"Suit yourself." she responded.
Yellow Yoshi jumped off the balcony and ran into the darkening forest. Bowser Jr sighed in relief.
"Like I wanna be trained by a girl." he muttered.
He sat on the edge of the balcony and stared at the sunset. The sun completely disappeared into the darkness. Stars popped up from the sky and the crescent moon became bright.
"Just wait, I'll be strong!" yelled Bowser Jr into the sky as if he wanted Yellow Yoshi to hear him.
Bowser Jr walked back into his room and grabbed the book he was reading. He lied on his bed and started reading his book. When he grew tired, he placed his book on the small table and he wrapped himself with his blanked and closed his eyes.
The warm wind blew into the boy's room. He snuggled more into his blanket. He heard the familiar voice that sang to him almost every night. The same song that his mother, Clawdia, sang to him every night before she died.
Guten Abend, gute Nacht, mit Rosen bedacht,
Mit Näglein besteckt, schlüpf unter die Deck!'
Morgen früh, wenn Gott will, wirst du wieder geweckt
Morgen früh, wenn Gott will, wirst du wieder geweckt
His mind slowly drifted into the only place where he is at peace, his dream. He never knew what the words meant, but the voice was sung from a voice of an angel. It was very high pitch, but the words were beautifully connect by her unique phrasing and perfect intonation.
Guten Abend, gute Nacht, von Englein bewacht
Die zeigen im Traum, dir Christkindleins Baum
Schlaf nun selig und süß, schau im Traum 's Paradies
Schlaf nun selig und süß, schau im Traum 's Paradies
The song ended with a giggle. The warm air ceased to flow. Bowser Jr was sound asleep.
"Good night Jr" whispered the voice.

I just love this chapter! It is so adorable! Hope you enjoyed it! No parings intended, yet.
The song that Bowser Jr heard is Brahms Lullaby! I just love this song and the composer! Everyone should know this song, it is a very well known lullaby next to rock a bye baby! I just wrote it in its original language, courtesy from Wikipedia!
Please listen to Brahms lullaby, you WILL know it and love it!
I couldn't help but put Yellow Yoshi in my story! She was begging to be in it, but this is a Bowser Jr fic, not a Yoshi fic. Actually it is a Brawl fic. Yet, the story wouldn't be without her. I am so used to writing about her.
