Yoshizilla: Ahhh...the Ankylosaurus Desert race is FINALLY over, but as I have cleverly stated in the previous chapter (the chapter with the Ankylosaurus Desert results), the next racecourse WILL be a city, but I just need a name. I'm already plotting the course itself as of this writing, so it may take some time for me to actually do the race. So I'll leave you all with some chapters of character development and also sneak in hints of the city racecourse. Enjoy the chapter, everyone!

Disclaimer: You know, there's this one Pokemon story that has over 180 chapters...

Yoshizilla: So? Why are you telling me this?

Disclaimer: I just thought you'd be interested in-

Yoshizilla: You do realize that Yoshi Kart will pass the 200-chapter mark, right?

Disclaimer: ...Well, with all of the chapters, yes, but-

Yoshizilla: And you do realize that I'm doing MOST of the chapters by myself?

Disclaimer: Well, yeah, but-

Yoshizilla: Ah ah ah! Not another word. We spoiled the chapter enough.

Disclaimer: (sighs and folds arms together) Fine, if you want to be a...well, you know.

Yoshizilla: Freak! (leaves the stage)

Disclaimer: (mutters angrily to himself)

Yoshizilla: (runs back in) Also, this is a -GASP- Drama/Angst chapter me and my good buddy, Milleniumon the Sonamy Freak (now Heartless Nobody) worked on, so please bear in mind as you read. Enjoy! (runs off again)

It was nightfall, and already all of the racers (even the recently joined racers, Paulie Preztail and Fergy Fudgehog) are in their rooms inside the McDonald's Hotel back in the Wonder Field (where every break takes place), but the results of the Ankylosaurus Desert race have mixed some emotions, and this is the result...

Taj was busy preparing for the next race, trying to figure out the next city racecourse to use.

"How are the plans going, Taj?" Master Hand asked, looking through the different cities of DInosaur Land as the next places for the next race.

"Almost done," Taj told him, "How are the racers holding up after tha last race?"

Master Hand sighed, shaking his head. "Not too good...after the Ankylosaurus Desert race, everyone started to get suspisiouc of each other...especially some of the Super Smash Brothers." He looked worridely at Taj. "I'm afraid that we'll have to do our best to keep these racers happy and prevent the same fate with the other racers from before happening to all these racers..."

"Yikes," Taj said quietly, "Is the stress of the race finally getting to them?"

"Yes, sadly." Master Hand murmured, looking out the window, "If this next race in one of Dinosaur Land's many cities stresses them more..." He closed his eyes. "Then it's permamentely the end for Yoshi Kart."

Taj looked out the window as well, worried and wondering what was going on with the racers now.

"You couldn't even muster the damn engine!" Knuckles snapped at Rouge, kicking the TV out of his room, "You call that experienced driving!? I'VE SEEN A TOASTER DO BETTER!!"

"Well you weren't doing so hot either!" Rouge snapped back, "You couldn't even throw a single green koopa shell at the racer behind us!"

"You are the WORST partner ever!" Koopa shouted at the top of his lungs, "We were gonna get it, but you just HAD to have Paulie and Fergy pass us!"

"You're not the one to talk!" Paratroopa retorted, "Wasn't it you who suggested that we shouldn't use the cactus shortcut?"

"Calm down, girls," Prof. E. Gadd moaned, seeing Princess Peach and Shiek argue with each other. "It was just a stupid race..."

Chad the Charmander nodded in agreement, sad to see his friends fighting over the fact that they got second-to-last place. "Yeah! We can always get back on the top in the next race!"

Peach slapped Sheik hard, ignoring the pleas and cries of Prof. E. Gadd and Chad. "You call yourself a good shot!? We pretty much slipped on our own banana peels!!"

"Well whose fault was that!?" Shiek shot back, "If you weren't such a shitty driver we wouldn't have slipped on them!"

"You idiot, Luigi!" Mario started whacking Luigi in the head with his hammer, "I was so close to getting Bowser with that fireball, but YOU just had to switch positions with me! And then we wind up behind Bumper the Badger!"

Luigi was trying to fend off Mario's hammer blows with his own, "Well Bowser was just about to fry us!!! What was I supposed to do!? Let us get barbequed?!"

Captain Falcon was alone in his room, meditating and not bothered by the noise. He then heard Sonic the Hedgehog knocking on his door. "Come on in," He said, in a surprisingly calm voice.

Sonic opened the door, his face bearing a really sad expression, and his eyes teary.

Capatin Falcon opened his eyes. "You seem depressed. What's wrong?" He asked, allowing Sonic to sit next to him.

Sonic sat next to Captain Falcon and sighed heavily. "What is wrong is... My team just broke up." He said in a depressed tone.

Captain Falcon stood up. "What?" He said in disbelief. He was shocked that Sonic's friends, Amy Rose and Shadow, would actually break up. "Why? What for?"

Sonic gave a long depressed sigh, "I don't know... We just blew up at each other out of the blue. We just started yelling, screaming, blaming each other for our mishaps on the road. Next thing I know it gets so bad that Shadow just storms off, saying that he's quitting the team, and then Amy goes off, saying that SHE'S quitting as well."

"Last thing we said to each other, was that we NEVER wanted to work with each other again," Sonic finished, starting to sob. "So now, I'm without friends OR teammates..."

Captain Falcon let out a sigh, and sat back down. "You know, Sonic, I know how you feel a bit, too. Me and the other Super Smash Brothers are starting to lose respect for each other and becoming less and less friends...the next thing I knew, I heard rumors running around that Mr. Game-and-Watch might be leaving the Super Smash Brothers forever..." He shook his head and frowned.

"Ugh...that sounds terrible," Sonic said, "Has...any team broken up like mine has?"

Captain Falcon looked down at himself. "Yes...Banjo and Kazooie split up, and so has the Star Fox team..." He turned to look at Sonic. "I'm afraid that Mario and Luigi, as well as Pikachu, Marth, and Roy might split up as well..."

Suddenly, both of the characters could hear screaming in the hallway. It were Marth, Roy, and Pikachu arguing with each other.

"...Oh, and I suppose that you purposely stopped JUST to let the other racers get trapped in the quicksand?" Roy snapped, "If I was driving, I could have just rammed them off, but NO! YOU had to do the driving, because you're more SKILLED than I am!"

"Well EXCUSE me! Is it so wrong that I wanted to ensure a victory for us!?" Marth shot back.

Pikachu just shook his head. "I don't even know why I joined this stupid Grand Prix with you two pathetic excuses for swordsmen! Consider our 'team' gone, for GOOD!" The yellow, electrical mouse Pokemon stormed down the hallway.

Roy growled, and he took off his team emblem. "Screw this. I'm leaving, too." He stormed off downstairs.

Marth stomped off. "Good! I don't need you two!! I hope you get kicked out of this race and I never see you two good for nothing failures ever again!"

Sonic winced at what he heard. "Man that's harsh..."

Captain Falcon only nodded. "It's even more harsh. You can still hear Fox McCloud, Falco Lombardi, and Krystal fighting." He got closer to the left wall, "Slippy and Peppy already both left, and they since quit the Grand Prix. It's not pretty, I tell you..." He said to Sonic, hearing shouts from the other room.

"Well maybe if you gave me and Krystal a chance, we wouldn't HAVE lost to stupid Pokemon Trainers, mutant freaks, or freakin' pinatas!" Falco shouted, with Krystal agreeing with him, "You know what, Fox? You can consider yourself part of Star Fox, because I QUIT!" He stormed out, slamming the door shut.

"Fine!" Fox shouted as he opened the door. "I can get along fine without you! You're nothing but some loose cannon anyway! You always wanted to go solo! Now you can do that! And while you're at it, you can go to hell!!"

"I'm out of here..." Krystal muttered angrily as she stormed off the other way. "Good bye forever, Fox."

Fox just snarled, "Fine by me! Why don't you go off with Panther while you're at it!?" He slammed the door angrily. but a few seconds later did it hit him what just happened. "...What have I done? My team's...gone..."

"You still have me, Fox," ROB muttered quietly, "But unfortunately, we don't have any extra members to help support the Great Fox..."

Fox just sighed despondantly, "Does this mean we're out of the race?" He asked in a defeated voice.

ROB shook his head. "Well, you still have your arwing...so at least you'll still be in the race..." He pointed out.

"Yeah, but even if I do win... there's gonna be nobody to cheer for me..." Fox shook his head sadly. "My team mates all hate my guts now, as well as each other's."

On the other side of the wall, Sonic felt sorry for Fox, nodding. "I know how you feel Fox... Boy do I ever know..."

Captain Falcon nodded in agreement. "Indeed. I surely hope Master Hand and Taj can do something to make up for all this..."

Upstairs, in Bowser's room, Wario and Donkey Kong are having their own arguement in the kitchen, while Bowser, Ganondorf, and Mewtwo all meditate to keep the calm in the living room. The doorbell rings.

Ganondorf opened his eyes. "Someone's at the door, guys. Should I answer it?" He asked.

Bowser snapped out of his meditation. "I'll get it." He walked over and opened the door.

Yoshi was at the door, sobbing. He looked up. "Hey Bowser...sniff...I..." he looked down at his shoes. "Dr. Hoshi kicked me out of the room..."

Bowser sighed sadly. "Another team broke up, huh?" He moved out of the way. "Come on in."

Suddenly the sound of stomping and broken glass rang out, along with a loud scream.

Mewtwo shook his head and sighed. "And Donkey Kong just threw Wario out the window."

Ganondorf shook his head. "I know Donkey Kong is strong, but..." He growled. "Does he HAVE to break another object in our room?"

"I tried asking him that myself," Mewtwo told Ganondorf, "But he just growled threateningly and threatened to throw the entire fridge at me."

Yoshi sat down between Mewtwo and Ganondorf, still sobbing. "Thanks, guys...Dr. Hoshi said he kicked me out because he needed to be alone...and neither Peppy or Heppy will talk to me..."

"That seems to be the case with every team, lately," Bowser admitted to Yoshi, "Star Fox already broke up and two of the members dropped out. I'm surprised Star Wolf is still together."

Yoshi looked up at Bowser, shocked. "Star Wolf? I know them, but I don't think they have entered the race...or have any plans to enter..." He sighed and looked down. "But I know one thing...May hates me now." He started sobbing again, getting pat on the back by Ganondorf.

At that moment, Wolf O' Donniel, the leader of the Star Wolf team, came in overhearing Bowser's comment.

"There there, Yoshi." Ganondorf said in a calm tone, "Let it all out." He then turned his focus to Wolf. "Huh? What are you doing here?" He asked, "You're not in the race."

"I wasn't originally," Wolf began, "But my team and I have been recently entered by request of Crazy Hand. Apparently, it's to do with a shortage of teams. And from all the arguing I saw when I came in here... I can see WHY there is a shortage..." He looked behind him, grimly as he heard Peach and Shiek tell each other off, thus another team splitting.

Ganondorf sighed. "Great. Now Peach and Shiek are split up...that just leaves Prof. E. Gadd and Chad the Charmander together..." He shook his head. "Can this night get any worse?"

Downstairs, screaming in the room can be heard, and both Ness and Young Link stormed out of Popo's room, shouting that they'll never be together again.

In the room next to Bowser, Banjo and Kazooie can be heard shouting angrily at each other, which both of them agreeing to split apart.

"...I spoke too soon..." Ganondorf muttered, shaking his head.

Mewtwo groaned and covered his face. "Oh no...this is it... the Super Smash Brothers are done for..."

Leon suddenly came up behind Wolf. "Sheesh... I just made a smart alec remark to Falco and he completely ignored me and skulked off. How un-Falco like of him..."

Yoshi got up, and walked up to Leon. "Wait...you said something about Falco." He asked, "What's the matter with him?"

Panther came up next. "Apparently, Star Fox has broken up. Panther saw Krystal on the balcony, weeping."

Pigma came in. "I noticed something very strange..." He started off, "When I was coming upstairs to see you guys, I noticed the dead bodies of a teddy bear, a green fuzzy monster, and a purple dinosaur..."

Oikanny held up a red wig as he came in. "Not to mention a fast food clown..."

Ganondorf looked worriedly at Bowser and Mewtwo. "Great...not only are teams splitting up, but there are murders, too."

Yoshi sat down between Ganondorf and Mewtwo, and he started sobbing again. "Great! Now I'll never be happy with my friends again...May completely hates me...and neither Mario or Luigi will speak to me..." He started crying and buried his hands into his face.

Ganondorf frowned. "I can understand Mario and Luigi not speaking to you, but, why does May hate you?" He asked.

Yoshi looked up, all teary-eyed. "Well...me and May got into a fight, and in the end, I called her a slut...she said she never wanted to see me again..." He got comforted by Bowser as he resumed crying.

Pigma tapped Mewtwo. "Is it okay if we can sit with you, sir?"

"We have enough room, so go ahead," Mewtwo said, "I just hope the other racers cool down tommorow..."

Bowser hugged Yoshi comfortingly. "I wonder how many teams are left..." He pondered.

"YOU DIDN'T EVEN LEFT A PIECE OF RESPECT FOR ME!?" Shouted Max, storming out of Ash's room, "I'M GOING BACK TO MAY!! I REGRET TEAMING UP WITH YOU!!"

"FINE!!!" Ash shouted, slamming the door after seeing Max stomp off, "YOU WERE ANNOYING, ANYWAY!!!"

Bowser groaned. "Spoke too soon..." He muttered, shaking his head.

Ganondorf looked at Donkey Kong, who was staring out at the moon. "Poor Donkey Kong...neither Diddy or Dixie won't talk to him. And now look at how sad he is after fighting with Wario..."

In Waluigi's room, things were more peaceful than the other rooms, but gloom and depression still filled the characters with emotions...

Toadette was in tears. "I can't believe everyone but us are fighting...what did we do to deserve this?" She asked, getting comforted by Toad and Daisy.

"I don't know, Toadette," Toad said, looking at Waluigi, who was on the balcony, "But Waluigi isn't too happy, either. At least he's not mad at us."

Stanley walked up to Daisy. "Hey Daisy...maybe you should ask Waluigi why he's upset. He sure looks depressed."

Daisy nodded. "Good idea." She walked towards Waluigi.

Daisy slowly approached the lanky doppelganger of Luigi. "Waluigi? Is there something wrong?"

Waluigi just sighed. "Wario and I had a fight like the rest of the teams here... Now I don't know what's going to happen..."

"Attention, all racers," Master Hand's voice boomed through the loudspeaker, "All report to the Race Meeting Room tomorrow at 11:00 AM. And don't be late."

Toad came outside with Toadette and Stanley, looking out at the moon. "Well...looks like this meeting will decide what will happen once and for all..."

Waluigi shook his head at the announcement sadly. "All racers? More like any racers who are still left..."

Stanley nodded, and he noticed Wario on the ground, walking and muttering to himself. "Hey Waluigi, there's your brother. He seems like he just gotten in a fight with an ape."

Waluigi glanced outside and grimaced. "Ouch... Donkey Kong must've thrown him out the window..."

"Hey Wario, are you all right?" Toad shouted from the balcony.

Wario cricked his back back into place. "I will be after I get all these glass shards out... Boy do I feel rotten...and not in the good way..."

Toadette turned to Daisy and Waluigi. "Well...I guess we better go to bed so we can wake up early tomorrow...Master Hand, Crazy Hand, and Taj will tell us what will happen."

Waluigi nodded. "You're right." He went downstairs to meet up with Wario.

Stanley yawned. "Yeah. It is getting late..." He slowly walked back into the room, taking one more look at Toad, Toadette, and Daisy, and walking slowly, sobbing quietly to himself. "Goodbye forever, guys..." He whispered quietly as he slowly opened the door and closed it behind him, walking down the hallway, sulking.

Waluigi and Wario both took some time to make amends, and they managed to forgive each other.

Daisy watched the Wario brothers as she left. "Well at least one group, reconciling..." She said, smiling a bit.

Toad nodded. "Yeah...hopefully, the others feel the same way, too." He and Toadette went back inside.
