Tiff and Tuff were both in their room, watching the racers race from their windows. They watched eagerly as Kirby came by and waved at the two Cappies.

"Hey, Kirby!" Tuff shouted, laughing as he waved back at Kirby, who zoomed off.

Tiff sighed, and she looked up at the bright, white moon. It was already night, and the racers have been racing for hours now. "You know, I wonder just how well their driving skills are."

"Cheer up, sis." Tuff stated, comforting his older sister, "I'm sure that Master Hand or whatever-his-name-is is planning something, you know."

Tiff groaned. "I just don't know what he's planning. A racecourse, or a match made in he-"

"EHEHEHE!!!!" King DeDeDe interrupted, bursting through the door with the whack of his powerful mallet, scaring Tiff and Tuff as the fat, blue penguin monarch approached the two Cappies. "So you two think that you'll do fine on the racecourse? Pah!" He scoffed, patting Tiff on the head. "You ingrates are too young to drive!"

Tiff growled, and she pushed King DeDeDe back. "Hey! Why don't you mind your own business, King DeDeDe?"

Escargoon then came into the room. "Don't treat Your Majesty like that, you girl! King DeDeDe knows what he's saying, even though he's a buffoon, an ignorant penguin, a fat-"

BAM!!!!! King DeDeDe slammed Escargoon on the head with his mallet.

"I think what Escargoon meant to say was," King DeDeDe stated, grinning, "Is that you two don't have a chance in the next race!" He laughed, and he grabbed the knocked out Escargoon by the tail, leaving Tiff and Tuff's room.

Tiff and Tuff looked at each other, sighed, and turned back to the window as they watched the practice race continue.

The Racers: Yoshi, Mario, Luigi, Link, Pikachu, Donkey Kong, Ash Ketchum, Kirby, Birdo, Zirdo, Shelia, Princess Peach, Jigglypuff, Wario, Heppy, Dr. Hoshi

As night approached, the Wonder Fields racecourse became more dangerous to drive in. Of course, the racers were full aware of this as they drove carefully, their driving skills approving as they raced.

Yoshi glanced at his rearview mirror, to see that Jigglypuff was trailing him. The green Yoshisaurus turned right, and he grabbed a leftover banana peel on the cement-paved road, spitting it back of him. Jigglypuff screamed, and she swerved to the right, growling as she zoomed closer towards Yoshi. Yoshi noticed that Jigglypuff was still behind him, and he sighed. Turning to the left and heading upwards the large, green and grassy hill, Yoshi swerved to the left, avoiding a couple of mines. He then grabbed a rotating green Koopa shell with his long, red tongue and spat it back behind him. Jigglypuff bounced over the incoming green Koopa shell, and she then took out her microphone. She started to sing, causing Yoshi to become drowsy and drive to the left, going off the road. As Yoshi headed down the green grassy hill and towards the laker, Jigglypuff cackled and she jumped over the puddle of oil on the road, turning to the right and going on top of the hill.

Peach wasn't faring as much as Jigglypuff, however. The pink, human princess of the Mushroom Kingdom was sent spinning around off the cement-paved road and onto the grassy terrain by a attack from a red, homing Koopa shell. Shelia cheered as she turned to the right, dropping a mine behind her. Birdo jumped over the mine, and she swerved to the left, running over a zipper. Appearing next to Shelia, Birdo blew out a kiss to the yellow feminine Stegosaurus and then rammed into her. Shelia screamed, and she whacked Birdo away with her spiky tail, turning left and heading downwards. Birdo growled, and she followed, grabbing a pink-dotted Birdo egg and tossing it in front of her. Shelia screamed as the Birdo egg collided into her, with Birdo taunting as she grabbed a golden, sparkling star and used its invincibility to zoom on the grassy terrain. Shelia started up her kart again, but she was squashed by peach, who made a comeback by using two of her remaining mushrooms to zoom forward, turning to the left and then snaking to the right.

Mario was trying his best to daze Wario and Dr. Hoshi, but he had no success. The red, Italian plumber was then attacked by a wandering Waddle Dee, tossed behind by Kirby. Mario took out a red fireball and hurled it at the Waddle Dee, burning it and starting up his red kart again. Dr. Hoshi passed by, and he glanced to his right, to see the incoming gap in the road. Turning to the left, Dr. Hoshi bounced over another wandering Waddle Dee and then ran over a zipper, using the boost to turn to the right and onto the grassy terrain, where he used the star he saved to gain another boost and invincibility. Wario, on the other hand, used his flatulence to cause Luigi and Ash ketchum to spin out of control and crash into each other. Wario laughed, and he approached Mario, turning left and then punching at the red-capped plumber. Mario screamed, and he kicked at Wario, causing him to nearly get on the grass.

While Mario and Wario both fought, Pikachu was way in the front, using the electricity he stored in his red cheeks to generate power for his yellow kart. Pikachu ran over a zipper and gained speed as the yellow, electrical mouse Pokemon turned left. Pikachu then jumped over a small ramp, and he noticed that Heppy Ankylosaurus was in front of him. Pikachu turned to the right, and swerved to the right to go over the zipper, passing Heppy. Heppy, however, noticed this, and as the two different racers turned to the left and headed downwards the green, grassy hill, Heppy rammed into Pikachu. Pikachu used Iron Tail to damager the hood of Heppy's purple kart, and he then used Thunderbolt to electrocute Heppy. Heppy then started whirling around, his tail club whacking Pikachu in the face several times. As the two racers approached the gap, Pikachu pushed Heppy into the grass, jumping over the twenty six feet gap and landing safely on the other side. Heppy, unfortunately, was not lucky enough, and he screamed as he and his light, purple kart pummeled down into the lake, being rescued a few moments later by a Lakitu, and was now behind Dr. Hoshi.

Donkey Kong was doing well, but he glanced to his left to see Yoshi snoozing. Shrugging, Donkey Kong pressed forward in his heavy, yellow kart and turned to the left, going over the wooden bridge. Donkey Kong then could see Link ahead, and getting an idea, Donkey Kong grabbed a giant banana peel he saved and tossed it in front of Link, watching the Hyrulian topple down. Donkey Kong chuckled, and he turned to the left, jumping over the small gap and turning right, going over a zipper and gaining a momentum boost of speed.

The racers continued racing, until the stroke of midnight. After a good, racing workout, all of the racers went back into the Yoshi Kart McDonald's Hotel for a well deserved rest. But what would come the next day was still shrouded in mystery...
