Chapter two

The two of them had known each other for most of their lives, gone through thick and thin together, ultimately, it wasn't like anyone who saw the two of them together couldn't agree, they were definitely not the kind of personalities that you would expect to get along, but almost as if it was planned from the start, they were the closest friends could possibly get, at least, it's the way it is from everyone else's perspective.

"It's nice, being on the road without a crazy witch trying to kill me" Kazooie took a deep breath and let it out, this was were she belonged, outside with the trees and the sun, not coped up in a little house, that wasn't her cup of tea. "Hey, she was trying to kill me too" Banjo whined.

"And you take pride in that?" Kazooie didn't normally tease Banjo, but after his little mistake, she wanted to let out some steam. They had to go to cloud cuckoo land the long way, Jamjars said the silos were 'under maintenance' whatever the heck that meant, but it was a long time since she got to look over the vast cliffs and crevices that was the Isle Of Hags. Apparently Banjo had the same intention, when they reached the Plato, he sat on the edge and looked out on the choppy, yet amazingly beautiful ocean below. "It's been to long, kinda forgot how beautiful this place was" Kazooie felt the same, the fact that there were clouds in the sky made it look better, it wasn't perfect, that made it relatable. "Remember that adventure, I totally saved your life a few times!" Kazooie joked, Banjo whined with dismay. "You did not, it was the other way around" Kazooie laughed, Banjo joined in, the memories they had, most people would never have adventures like they did, it just made this place so much more special to them. "I miss adventuring around with you, now the only thing left to explore is the old book collection in Grunty's lair, best thing in there is probably an old yearbook or something" Banjo chuckled, the idea of an old yearbook with a photo of Grunty did sound like something worth finding.

Banjo got back on his feet and started walking towards the path that led to the Witchyworld amusement park. From there they worked there way to the wasteland. Banjo walked through the crack in the wall, and out onto another beautiful cliff, but the bubble elevator was what they were looking for. "Well come on, go in and let's get up there!" Kazooie was quiet until this point, he found the silence oddly upsetting, he enjoyed conversations with his feathered friend, even when she was being absolutely absurd, her company was interesting.

He stepped into the bubble, it gently started floating upwards towards the sky, it had been years since the two of them had even left home, after there second adventure, they ran around a little, eventually Kazooie got bored of that, she started moping around the house, she slowly stopped talking with him, he feared losing her, so he saved up and bought her a gaming console, then they started gaining pounds.

Ever since there last and probably final adventure, he decided that it was up to him to keep his best friend occupied, he trashed the console and started going on outings with her, but they usually went back to Showdown Town to check on Tooty and everyone else, never really went anywhere on the Isle Of Hags, this was the first time in six years, hard to believe that wasn't even half the amount of years he's known Kazooie, as the little bubble floated upwards, he tried to remember a time Kazooie wasn't in his life, it was impossible, she really was the best a friend could get, now that he thought about it. "Look at the view from up here, it's amazing" Kazooie wasn't lying, he looked out on the horizon, below his feet was the patch of land he grew up on, and being all the way up here proved that it was something special, you couldn't see anything for miles, just blue, to think he never would have got to see this if grunty hadn't had tried to ruin there lives, in a way, she kinda made things more exciting, the adventures led to new friends, and eventually it all came together to make one last thing happen, now he was the proud owner of spiral mountain. Kazooie didn't have the same thought process as Banjo.

She loved adventures, the wind in her feathers, the sun on her face, sometimes roughing up the monsters grunty called minions was fun as well, but the real gain from all these actions was actually quite simple, she loved spending time with Banjo, not because she was attracted to him, but because he was her closest friend, she had grown extremely fond of him, if there was anyone she could trust more than herself, it was him. It was weird for someone with her personality to feel this way towards someone else, but she was strapped to the guys back most of her days, why not make things more comfortable for everyone? But deep down, she really liked him, not saying that she was interested in him, just that he had all the qualities of a good person, he risked his life for his sister, then he did it again for a friend, then he kinda did something with a car and saved his home, but the one thing that hit her soft spot was that he saved HER as well, he went back in time and rescued her from a grunty, if she had a guess, she would say he had similar feelings towards her. "Kazooie, do you ever wonder were we would be if grunty never showed her ugly face?" Kazooie smirked, what a choice of words, proves how mature they were.

"Yea, we'd be in your house, I'd be saying 'let's go on an adventure with your sister' and you'd be lying in your bed like" then Kazooie did her best impression of him. "Oh no, but I'm soooooooooooo tired, I'm just going to sleep here alllllll daaay" Banjo cracked a smile, then sarcastically remarked. "Wow, that was scarily accurate" then laughed, this was exactly why he loved having Kazooie around, she wasn't afraid to say something that might insult someone.

That's when the elevator reached the island in the sky, the second Banjo stepped out, Kazooie launched out, tapped him on the shoulder, and said "tag, your it" before he could state how immature this was, she ran off somewhere. "Come on, I bet you can't catch me" she goaded, which was followed by a maniacal laugh. "Ugh, please don't do this right now" her voice came from a different direction this time. "Awww, but you never play tag, even though it's the most immature thing for grown adults to be playing" did she just… contradict herself? Banjo walked towards a cave that led to the Inside of the mountain. "Is this what you were planning to do, play tag?" Kazooie's voice came from above this time. "Nah, I just didn't want us to get here, then have no idea of what to do, sooooo… tag it is!" Banjo walked around, looking for a way to get up, but it looked like it was only possible if Kazooie was here.

"Come on fuzzball, we have been through so much together and the one mini game that stumps you is TAG?!?" He got an idea, he stepped outside and looked for one of the launch plants, he jumped in and flew towards Mumbo's skull, he walked in and climbed up the stairs. "Ah, if it isn't bear, where is red annoying parrot?" Banjo giggled, Kazooie would have had his skull if he said that with her around. "Yea, that's the problem, can I borrow a spring pad?" Mumbo looked insulted. "I was mechanic one time!" He stated. "What make you think Mumbo still has 'spring pad' lying around?!?" Banjo shrugged. "I dunno, do you?" Mumbo frowned, then zapped the ground in front of Banjo, a spring pad appeared. "Yes, Mumbo still has junkie springs, just take and leave" Banjo picked it up and walked towards the stairs. "Thanks Mumbo!" Mumbo sighed, then sat on his chair again. "Whatever".

Banjo found himself walking back into the cave. Kazooie immediately taunted him, but in a playful manner. "What took you so long, I thought you just left me here." Kazooie was still above him, he took the spring pad out of his bag and dropped it on the ground. "What's that?" Kazooie asked, Instead of answering, Banjo stepped onto the pad, launching him into the sky, Kazooie wasn't expecting that. She stepped to the side, when banjo hit the ledge she was standing on, she pulled out her kazoo and made a 'waa waaaah' sound effect. "You ok Banjo?"

Banjo reached out and touched her leg. "T-tag, your… it" Kazooie laughed like something about his distress was funny.

"I'm sorry, it's just that you used a tacky spring pad to get up here, come on, let me help you up" Kazooie took his paw and pulled him to his feet, he proceeded to lean on her, she didn't mind, whatever he needed to help him, she would gladly give. They made their way to the main entrance, Banjo had stopped leaning on Kazooie and was limping, Kazooie felt slightly responsible, it wasn't the best feeling. "So what's next?" Banjo asked, Kazooie was surprised he didn't ask to leave, she wanted to sit and admire the view a little bit more, but that didn't seem like something Banjo would be interested in, their wasn't much to do here, she would have asked to leave if they hadn't had just got here. "Maybe we can… actually, let's fly home" Banjo looked a little confused, she explained how there wasn't much to do here but she wanted to leave in style. "Sounds fun, as long as I don't have to walk all the way back, I have no problem" Kazooie jumped into his backpack and called out. "Onwards, peasant" Banjo groaned. "Please don't call me a 'peasant' ever again"

I think I might be able to not mess this one up, this more time than I intended to spend, but it might be worth it in the long run.

This chapter was more fun to write because I didn't have to listen to the undertale soundtrack while writing it (because the undertale soundtrack is like coffee, it keeps me up until 3:00 AM) and actually got to listen to the Banjo-Kazooie soundtrack instead, plus I kinda got bored of all the action in my other story's.

Don't forget to review, it's better seeing feedback than seeing numbers on a chart.
