Yoshizilla: Awwwwww right, the first month - er, I mean, first day of June! And what a better way to start a race on today than this day, and luckily, it's Friday! And since school's coming to an end soon, I'll be able to do many more updates on Fanfiction Net and YouTube as well, and all that will become possible before school starts out in the midst of September again (which I find kind of depressing because sooner or later, there won't be any school). Anyway, it's time for me to shut up, and time for you all...the read and enjoy the start of the race!

Disclaimer: I thought you'd never shut up.

Yoshizilla: You want to take this outside?

Disclaimer: No.

Yoshizilla: Good. Now shut up.

Disclaimer: Fine. You win again, my master.

Yoshizilla: Yes, I am your master. And ladies and gentlemen, I'm sorry to say this, but I sorta pulled a tick - there aren't any surprise racers joining in, BUT there WILL be surprise cameos within the race...but I'm not telling what kind of cameos. Fufufufufufufu...

Disclaimer: You're kiddin' me, right?

Yoshizilla: (sigh) What now?

Disclaimer: What kind of laugh is that?

Yoshizilla: A laugh that owns you. (takes out hammer and squashes Disclaimer)

Disclaimer: (now squashed) Oy, I hate it when this happens...(mutters something to himself and scutters off)


Today was the big day of the next race - the Ankylosaurus Desert race. Everyone were gathering in the audience, waiting to see the big race across the blitzering desert. All of the racers started to come out from the hotel.

"Ladies and Gentlemen, it is that time again for the next race in the First Annual Yoshi Kart Grand Prix, and the racers will be racing in the blitzering desert known infamously by all as...the Ankylosaurus Desert."

Peppy Ankylosaurus shuddered as he sat down in his yellow kart. "Just hearing that name makes my spine shake..."

"You're telling me," Clario added, putting on his bike helmet, "Who knows what could happen if we wind up crashing?"

Peppy stared blankly at Clario. "Dude, why are you wearing a bike helmet?" He asked, putting his hands on his hips and tilting his head sideways.

Clario folded his arms. "Doesn't anyone wear bike helmets before races?" He retorted.

Peppy rolled his eyes, and he turned to face his steering wheel.

Master Hand cleared his throats. "All right, ladies and gents, get ready to-"

"WAIT!" Paulie Pretztail and Fergy Fudgehog shouted in unison, pulling up in ebtween mario/Luigi and Koopa/Paratroopa. "We haven't introduced ourselves!"

"Oh!" Master Hand said, "Sorry for that, boys. Go right ahead." He apoligized, bowing down to the two pinatas (is that even possible for a hand to do?).

Paulie cleared his throat and stood on top of the kart. "What's up, everyone? I'm Paulie Pretztail!"

"And I'm Fergy Fudgehog, and both of us are straight from Pinata Island!" Fergy added, simply waving and smiling nervously.

Hikari gushed, looking at Paulie and Fergy. "Awwww! They're so cuuute!" She cooed, eyeing Paulie and Fergy with joy.

Both Paulie and Fergy looked warily at Hikari, slightly creeped out. "What a freak..." They both muttered to themselves, shuddering.

Brock sweatdropped, and he chuckled. "Hey Hikari, try not to be out of focus during the race, okay?"

Hikari nodded, getting her focus back. "You got it, Brock!" She sat back down in Brock's rock-themed dasher.

Yoshi looked at the oil milage on the Turbo Yoshi. "Well, doc, we're ready to be zooming."

"Good," Dr. Hoshi complimented, putting goggles on in his usual place of his light-blue glasses, "Remember, don't lose focus."

Yoshi nodded. "Right, Harryhausen." He replied back, giving Dr. Hoshi a thumbs up.

Mario and Luigi were making quick fixes to the Red Fire, and they both jumped in, ready to go.

Pikachu, who was practicing steering with the steering wheel, turned around. "Ready, boys?" He asked.

Marth and Roy both nodded, each having a box filled with various items. "Ready, Pikachu!"

Master Hand appeared next to Taj, in the announcing booth. "Ladies and Gentlemen, just to keep you up with date, you may have notice that there are many, different items that are new to Yoshi Kart. They'll be of use, as the courses will become much more dangerous."

"Dangerous is the Ankylosaurus Desert racecourse indeed," Taj added, looking at the sprawling desert with his binoculars, "Anyone who's willing to risk themselves to win 1st place in such a ravage area like the Ankylosaurus Desert better be prepared for one heck of a wild ride."

Koopa turned to Paratroopa. "You hear that, Paratroopa? That means we'll be able to pull off our triple shells!"

Paratroopa grinned. "Excellent! Let's get ready right away!"

Peach placed in three mushrooms into the engine tank. "There we go!' She said, turning to Chad the Charmander, Shiek, and Prof. E. Gadd. "Are you ready to burst some wheels, guys?"

Shiek only nodded. Prof. E. Gadd gave Peach a thumbs up. Chad the Charmander grinned and nodded.

Peach giggled. "Good! Then hang on!" She grabbed the steering wheel, and placed her foot on the pedal.

Bowser chuckled, looking down at the other racers from his Koopa Clown Car. "We'll give the racers a hard time, huh fellas?" He chuckled evilly.

Wario laughed heartily, getting some bo-bombs in his arms. 'Yeah! I can't wait to bomb those losers-a!"

"Same here, and I'll show them why I'm the true evil of Hyrule!" Ganondorf let out a maniacal laugh.

Donkey Kong was eating several bananas at the same time, leaving the peels on the side. "Mucn munch...I'm ready when you are, guys! Let me just finish these bananas!'

Mewtwo only nodded, giving Bowser a sign that he was ready.

The Star Fox crew and The Kremlings were having a staring contest with each other. May/Misty, Dixie/Tooty, Pipsy, Birdo, and Zirdo all gave nice compliments to each other before the race. Bronto and Shelia were joking around with each other, while Boshi growled impatiently for the race to begin. Godzilla and his friends all gathered around on the starting line, preparing to get set. Master Ghidorah and Sir Megalon, as well as Lt. Gigan and Mecha Anguirus, were all the way at the western pole of the starting line, eying the others. Mr. Burns and Smithers were pulling up, behind them were the Simpsons. The Sonic characters and the Square-Enix characters all gathered around the eastern pole of the starting line. Heppy Ankylosaurus placed on a pair of headphones and took out an IPod, with several of his favorite songs on it. The rest of the Diddy Kong Racers, including Diddy Kong himself, all got in their racing positions.

A horde of camera-weilding Lakitus were all flying down to the front of the starting line, ready to go and record the racers' progress. Master Hand and Taj looked at each other, and nodded, preparing to start the Ankylosaurus Desert race. Waluigi, Daisy, Toad, Toadette, and Stanley the Bugman were all watching the other racers, anticipating their next move. Dr. Mario, Zelda, and Pichu all got out their items, having knowledge on when to use them. Kirby was being mentored by Meta Knight as the race was about to start. Link, Samus, Zero Suit Samus, Pit, and Solid Snake all galloped on Epona, who was eating a pile of hay right on the starting line. Snuggles was loading up his artillery tank. James Bond and Alec Trevelyan gave each other competetive looks. Barney the Dinosaur giggled, singing to himself. Oscar gritted his teeth, chuckling evilly as he took out a bomb from the insides of his trash can. Petey Piranha and King Boo were in cojunction with Crazy hand. King Kong, Wizpig, and the Yoshi Series/Diddy Kong Racing bosses all chuckled to themselves as they appeared on the starting line.

The intense desert heat started to take effect, and the audience started to moan, as did the racers and the Lakitus.

Taj looked at his watch, taking out his shotgun. "Ready...get set..." He shot. "GO!"

All of the racers zoomed/flew/ran past the starting line, and they started to head off into the blitzering, hot desert, preparing themselves for what may lie within the dangerous Ankylosaurus Desert racecourse.
