Heartless Nobody can be seen playing "Kingdom Hearts: Chain of Memories" on the GameBoy Advance. "Haha! How do you like the coold feel of the Keyblade, Larxene?" He laughed at the game.
"Errrr...nice playing, Heartless Nobody!" Yoshizilla laughed, playing Super Smash Brothers Melee on his green-colored Nintendo Gamecube on his spazzy, wide-screen, Dolby 5.1 surround sound, high-definition television set. Of course, he was Yoshi obviously, and the computer-controlled characters he was up against were the very obvious picks of the game, the Star Fox team of McCloud and Falco Lombardi, both set at Level 9 who were losing horribly.
The Disclaimer then came in with his newspaper, and then stared blankly at Yoshizilla and Heartless Nobody. He sweatdropped, and tapped Yoshizilla on the shoulder. "Uhhh...Yoshizilla, who's this guy?"
Yoshizilla jumped a bit, and turned around to see the Disclaimer. "Oh! Disclaimer!" He pointed at Heartless Nobody. "That's my good friend, Heartless Nobody?"
The Disclaimer blinked, looking oddly at Heartless Nobody. "...Why is he exactly called that particuarly weird name, may I ask?"
"Oh like being called disclaimer is a good name," Yoshizilla smirked.
The Disclaimer shuddered a bit. "I was just curious and all, jeeze."
Heartless Nobody looked up and spoke. "It shows how much I like Kingdom Hearts. It's a combination of the names of major enemies in the game series; the Heartless, and the Nobodies."
The Disclaimer nodded. "Ahh, I see." He then looked at the Nintendo Gamecube and the GameBoy Advance. "But why exactly are you two playing videogames for?"
Yoshizilla shrugged. "I dunno, nothing better to do." He then cheered as he beaten the CPU Falco, winning the match.
The Disclaimer sighed, putting his hands on his hips. "Yoshizilla, don't you have Yoshi Kart to present to?"
Yoshizilla stared at the stats screen on his spazzy, wide-screen, Dolby 5.1 surround sound, high-definition television set. "The what-who-where now?" He asked randomly.
The Disclaimer was silent for several seconds, and he then whacked Yoshizilla in the head with his newspaper. "YOSHIZILLA, GET OFF YOUR LAZY BUTT AND GO PRESENT YOSHI KART TO THE AUDIENCE," He angrily growled, holding his newspaper threateningly.
Yoshizilla gulped. "All right, jeeze man cool it, I'm going!" He said in defense, as he turned off the Nintendo Gamecube and ran out of the living room, to go and present Yoshi Kart to the audience.
The Disclaimer sighed. He then looked at Heartless Nobody. "Well what about you bub?" He said, still holding his newpaper in a threateningly way.
Heartless Nobody just stared at the newspaper for a moment and stood up. "I think there is a fic, whose author needs my help with." He walked off in the same direction that Yoshizilla ran off in.
The Disclaimer sighed and sat down in his comfortable red sofa, reading the newspaper he was holding the entire time. "Darn authors... I swear, us Disclaimers these days need a rest every so or then, you know... why do we even have this stupid job..." He quietly muttered to himself as he started reading the newspaper.
Yoshizilla (who did most of the dirty work) and Heartless Nobody (although he only actually helped do ONE part of the entire Turbo Traffic City race) both proudly present to you grateful viewers out there the next long-awaited, racing action-packed, and suspenseful part TEN (fixed, thankfully due to being stupid to ignore an easy typo) of the Turbo Traffic City race, and more importantly, the next chapter of...YOSHI KART!
(PS: The following chapter has been fully edited, fully read, fully scripted, and fully proofed read for your own personal enjoyment. Also note the fact that we have pathetically attempted to increase the word count by including this and at some point in the entire chapter saying certain characters' full names, which is the basic reason why we removed that flashback since it was the same thing you read in the previous chapter but outdated due to obvious updates from the future. So don't bother suing us if this bothers you. We just did this to get you readers interested and pumped up. And of course, help us pump ourselves closer to 1,000,000 words, which I doubt will happen because... I'll shut up now and let you readers enjoy the chapter. Please forgive me.)

"Eggman really is gonna do us like this!" Yoshi slammed his left fist on the steering wheel yet again. "I hate that we have to repeat the obvious things that people might have already read on account of the authors being lazy, but moreso to the point that the egg shaped freak would dare do this, let alone take my name out of the racing event!"
"Honestly surprised that you would bring that up of all things." Dr. Hoshi explained while driving around with the Sonic the Hedgehog crew. "I didn't take you to take your ego quite so seriously."
"Knowing what Eggman will have in store for all of us," Rouge spoke up again with a tone of worry in her voice. "There's no telling where this race will end up."
"...That's what I'm afraid of." Espio muttered in disappointment and took out another missile he had with him, releasing it in front of him and watching it hit Wave again. "Who knows what he'll force us to do."
"For crying out loud there are other fucking racers here you friggin' clown!" Wave snapped as the angered purple colored Swallow bird was quick to get back on her hover board, chucking some mines at the racers. "Go find your own targets, why don't you?"
Behind them, Miles Prower and his creamy rabbit girlfriend along with her cheesy Chao in a bow tie were pulverized by Star Wolf. The Expanding Dong and his little buddy kept throwing behind banana peels, causing some of the racers to spin out of control. Petey Piranha and King Boo veered passed by Yoshi/Dr. Hoshi, the Sonic Team, and the Chaotix.
"We'd better catch up to them." Yoshi suggested while grabbing a hookshot and applied it to the back of the Piranha Pipes, dragging the Turbo Yoshi with it.
Sonic applied his fleet feet to the ground and gave his car an extra bit of speed power.
Espio tossed a mushroom into the Chaotix's vehicle engine, and the car went propelling, equal with Sonic and Company.
It was then that a Bowser Shell richocheted throughout the entire tunnel, and knocked racers and bypassing vehicles aside. It was then that Petey Piranha and King Boo propelled ahead, cackling in the Piranha Pipes as they easily looked back behind them at the knocked aside racers - Vector/Espio, Sonic/Amy/Knuckles/Rouge, and Yoshi/Dr. Hoshi. Passing them were the heroes and future rulers of Donkey Kong Island.
"Yes! Good job, buddy!" The Donk complimented, holding on to the railing as Diddy turned to the right, heading down the downwards path. Donkey Kong then grabbed a handful of bananas, and threw one of them behind the DK Barrel.
Yoshi growled with a hint of jealousy as his race instincts were kicking up. "No! I'm not going to just sick back here and let the other racers win!" He switched positions with Dr. Hoshi, and slammed his right foot on the pedal, revving the Turbo Yoshi forward, and leaving the other racers to eat the dust.
Dr, Hoshi held tightly to the railings as Yoshi fiercely turned on the right, downwards turn. He then swerved to the left, avoiding a green condom and sliding to the left, ramming into the DK Barrel. The Don Key Kong punched back at the Turbo Yoshi, and Diddy slowed down the DK Barrel. Donk Ey then threw the remaining bananas in front of them, and watched Sonic's group slip on them and crash into the wall. Switching driving positions with Diddy, Donkey Kong started up the DK Barrel again, and slide into the left lane.
Dr. Hoshi grabbed a purple Yoshi Egg, and hurled it behind him, watching the DK Barrel crash into it, and the three items - a rock, a bubble, and a green Koopa shell - coming out of it. Wolf O' Donniel, in his crafty red arwing, flew right over the Turbo Yoshi and rolled towards the right. Yoshi used a mini turbo on the right curve, but crashed into a freight truck. Donkey Kong and Diddy both passed then, with Diddy throwing a Giant Banana behind the DK Barrel as they slid down the left, downward path.
Vector and Espio were coming again, bouncing over the small banana peel and the green Koopa shell. Vector made a power slide down on the left, downward path, while Yoshi made the Turbo Yoshi jump down it, landing in front of Vector and Espio. Espio used his ninja skills and threw a few of his ninja stars into the tires of the Turbo Yoshi, stopping it in its tracks. Dr. Hoshi got out an air tank and started to pump the deflated tire furiously, while Pikachu zoomed by, being followed by Brock and Dawn (Hikari being her original Japanese name).
Pikachu narrowly swerved to the right, avoiding a bus and then bouncing over a leftover banana peel. Pikachu looked at his reflector mirror, and as he slid to the right curve, he released a small thundershock behind him. Brock used a mini-turbo down the right curve, but his vehicle got electrocuted as he did.
Dawn screamed, noticing her hair all up due to the electricity. "Gah! Brock, my hair, it's up again!" She tried to fix it back to normal, but had no luck.
Brock gritted his teeth. "Dawn, just forget your hair and help me!" He yelled, screaming as the vehicle got hit by a red Koopa shell, from...
"SUCKERS!" Ash Ketchum chuckled, spiraling upwards the tunnel as he gained on Pikachu.
Pikachu turned around and slowed down, allowing Ash's B-Dasher to crash into his yellow, small kart. Pikachu then used Iron Tail, crushing the front of the B-Dasher, and zoomed off, using a mushroom as he turned right. Ash growled, and he slid to the right, but crashed into a bus. Brock and Dawn, as well as Yoshi and Dr. Hoshi, both passed Ash.
"We'll see who'll have the upper hand," Dr. Hoshi said to Brock and Dawn, chuckling.
Dawn folded her arms. "Please! We'll beat you with ea-AAAAAAASE!" She screamed, holding on tightly to the railings as she nearly fell off Brock's vehicle.
Yoshi gasped, and he growled. "Oh no you don't!" He handed Dr. Hoshi a mushroom. Dr. Hoshi used the mushroom, and the Turbo Yoshi swiftly followed Brock and Dawn upwards.
Meanwhile, at the Turbine Tunnel's exit (or, specifically at the start of the Grand Emerald Highway), Bowser was easily driving the Koopa Klown kar with ease. He was having no trouble, until...the Yoshi Series and Diddy Kong Racing bosses abruptly appeared out of nowhere.
"Wha... what!?" Bowser exclaimed, screaming as he held onto the steering wheel as the Koopa Klown Kar shook.
Ganondorf gasped, looking down and seeing the bosses, including Master Ghidorah, Sir Megalon, and Lt. Gigan (riding on MechaAnguirus), all thundering down on the road, causing several earthquakes. "T-t-the bosses! They somehow managed to-"
"UP YOURS!" The DKR Dragon, Smokey, laughed, charboiling the top of Ganondorf's head.
Ganondorf screamed girlishly, and he started ripping off parts of the Koopa Klown Kar, much to Mewtwo and Bowser's dsimay.
"Ganondorf Dragmore, you're being a big Ganondork right now!" Bowser shouted, letting go of the steering wheel and trying to pull Ganondorf up, "Are you going mad!?"
Ganondorf punched Bowser, and started banging his head on the steering wheel. "My...HEAD...is...ON...FIRE!" he screamed, as he started laughing maniacally and started pulling out his hair.
Mewtwo sweatdropped, gulping. "G-Ganon, stop! Seriously, if you continue, we'll-"
Mewtwo couldn't finish, as the Koopa Klown Kar crashed down to the pavement, and exploded abruptly.
The road was now in bad damage, and all of the bypassing vehicles either went the other direction, stopped completely, or were damaged and/or destroyed by the Yoshi Series and Diddy Kong Racing bosses.
Back IN the Turbine Tunnel, Mario and Luigi were having troubles with Peach, who was trying to pass them to gain the lead.
"Hey brother, be sure to go easy on the princess!" Mario whispered to Luigi as he switched positions with his younger, taller brother and grabbed the steering wheel, power sliding to the right.
Luigi nodded, saluting. "Right, bro!" He shouted, turning around and facing Peach, grabbing the railings of the Green Fire with his right hand.
Peach smirked, chuckling. "Oh, Luigi... you wouldn't hurt a girl now, would you?" She asked in a sweet voice, looking at Luigi with innocent eyes.
Luigi blushed slightly, and he shook his head. "Sorry princess, but..." He took out a small, green fireball, and tossed it at Peach's pink kart, setting it ablaze.
Peach screamed, spinning around uncontrollably, and getting her kart back in control as she poured water over it. She sighed, and then growled, eyeing Mario and Luigi. "That's it! This is what I get for being nice to an overshadowed extra who used to just be a pallet swap! Greeny, you'll pay!" She shouted, ramming her kart into the Green Fire.
Mario and Luigi screamed, being pushed into a bus (which Peach swerved to the left in time, of course). The two plumber moaned, and as Luigi tossed in a mushroom into the Green Fire's engine, the Mario Brothers started to gain on Peach, who was taken the lead.
"We'll get you Peach!" Mario shouted as he used a mini-turbo on the right turn, following Peach. "You won't take the lead from us!"
Pipsy the Mouse, Drumstick the Rooster, Dixie Kong/Tooty Bear, T.T. the Analog Clock, Shelia the Stegosaurus, Zirdo the Birdosaurus, and Bronto the Brontosaurus zoom into the Turbine Tunnel, and all slide into the left curve, swerving to the second right lane.
"Eat my dust!" Bronto laughs, as he propels his heavy, blue kart ahead, zooming by a freight truck, which blares its horn at Bronto in protest.
Shelia makes a dash towards the first left lane, but she crashes into a bus coming in from the opposite direction. Drumstick rams Pipsy into the wall, and he slides down the right curve. Zirdo uses a mushroom to catch up to Drumstick, but she goes spinning out of control as T.T. zooms right past her. Pipsy gets her car back into action, and he swerves to the right, avoiding crashing into Zirdo. Pipsy then turns on the left curve and bumps into T.T., sending his car crashing int a school bus. Pipsy smirks, and she zooms by him, passing the school bus.
Shelia hurtles a green Koopa shell at Bronto, but he bounces over it, watching the green Koopa shell ricocheting in front of him. He looks at his reflector mirror, and tosses a poison mushroom at Shelia, which slows down her kart. Shelia growls, and as she tries to start up her kart's engine, Drumstick passes. Getting an idea, Shelia grabs a hook-shot from a nearby item box and tosses it at the back of Drunkstick's car, dragging her along.
Pipsy zooms by Shelia. She notices the hook shot, and cuts it off which a pair of sciccors. Looking at Shelia and waving, Pipsy gets into the same lane, leaving Shelia to take in her car's dust. Shelia coughs, and she growls, taking a mushroom and throwing it into her yellow kart's engine, causing it to bump into Pipsy, who's car loses momentum. Grinning, Shelia swerves to the left, and zooms off, mini-turboing to the right curve. Pipsy attempts to follow, but she spins around on a small, leftover banana peel, causing her to bump into a small, white sedan. Zirdo zooms by, looking back behind her as T.T. crashes into a mine.
Dixie frowns. "Tooty, we got to find a way to catch up to the others!"
Tooty nodded. "Right! Hold on, Dixie!" She said, as she used a mini-turbo on the left and right curvy turns, and catching up to T.T.
T.T. looked behind him, and he smirked. "Nice try, but no!" He released oil from his car's engine, and the oil spilled all over the road, causing the bypassing vehicles to slip and CRASHED into each other and the walls.
Unfortunately for Dixie and Tooty, they winded up crashing into a toppled frieght truck.
T.T. laughed, and he turned his car into a plane, flying over several of the bypassing vehicles below him on the road.
Godzilla and Anguirus were taking a different path. Instead of the tunnel, they ran up...on the hill, within the off-limits grass!
"You think it would be all right if we did this?" Anguirus asked Godzilla cautiously.
Godzilla gave Anguirus a thumbs up. "Of course, Anguirus! Nothing bad will- WHOA!" Godzilla then tripped, falling down the hill and landing on part of the Turbine Tunnel, causing some major damage and accidental killed a few of the bypassing people, including some of the racers.
Anguirus slapped his forehead. "Gah...Godzilla, I don't think it's all right to kill innocent, bypassing-"
"Come on, Anguirus! Common sense!" Godzilla snapped, whacking Anguirus in the back of the head. "Let's discuss this AFTER we win."
Anguirus sighed, shaking his head. "If you say so, Godzilla..." He murmured, still frowning.
Godzilla nodded, smiling. "Great! Now..." He started running upwards on the hill. "Let's go!"
Anguirus sighed, and he ran after Godzilla, both of them easily skipping ahead from last place to twelvth place.
Banjo the Honeybear used a mini-turbo as he slid downwards right. Kazooie the red-crested Breegull fired behind her light-blue ice eggs, freezing Dr. Mario and Pichu in their path. The bear and bird duo then crashed into a freight truck, allowing Koopa and Paratroopa to pass. Banjo used a rocket booster, and he then grabbed a hookshot, aiming for the Koopa Dasher. Koopa noticed this, and he swerved to the right, swerving quickly to the left as a school bus, followed by a small, yellow sedan, passed. Banjo and Kazooie also swerved to the left, and Kazooie fired a Clockwork Egg into the Koopa Dasher's engine tank, exploding inside and slowing the vehicle down. Banjo and Kazooie high-fived each other as they passed Koopa and Paratroopa, turning to the right. Paratroopa grabbed a couple of red Koopa shells and fired them ahead, switching driving positions with Koopa and starting the Koopa Dasher again. Koopa used a mushroom, just as the Koopa Dasher slid to the right. Banjo and Kazooie were them hit by the first red Koopa shell, and then hit again by another, colliding them into a bus. Koopa and Paratroopa both taunted at Banjo and Kazooie as they swerved to the left and Koopa released behind the Koopa Dasher a green Koopa shell. Switching positions with Banjo, Kazooie easily made the vehicle bounce over the green Koopa shell and locked-on to the Koopa Dasher. Banjo gave the vehicle some honey, adding some more power to it, and slightly making it accelerate faster. Kazooie then swerved to the right as a bus passed by, and then rammed into Koopa and Paratroopa. Paratroopa rammed back, and the two racing pairs continued to ram each other, with them both squished into the right lane as a freight truck in the left lane approached.
Behind them were Timber the Tiger and Krunch the Kremling, who were also ramming each other, until they both crashed into a freight truck. Heppy Ankylosaurus zoomed by in his small, purple kart, and easily bounced over the green Koopa shell from before. Seeing some small, leftover banana peels, Heppy simply bounced over them, but then he was pushed aside into the wall by Jet the Hawk, who was trying to get back towards the lead.
In the announcers' booth, Scratch and Grounder are watching the racing progress while Dr. Eggman is calling more of his henchmen.
"Hey your smart egginess, you'll be pleased," Scratch said, smiling as he rubbed his hands together, "That blue hedgehog and his pals just got owned by a couple of other racers and are starting to drag behind!"
"Excellent!" Eggman chuckled. "Who else got knocked off?"
Grounder continued looking at the huge projectile screen. "Tails and Cream...Gruntilda Winkybunion...Donkey Kong and Diddy Kong..." He turned around, smiling. "Quite a lot. And it appears that a few of the racers in last apparently got killed off from the tunnel's collapsed debris."
"This is... just PERFECT! The Eggman Grand Prix is off to a magnificent start!" Eggman grinned and rubbed his hands with glee.
Scratch and Grounder both laughed victoriously, high-fiving each other.
"But wait," Scratch suddenly interrupted, rubbing his chin, "What aboutn Decoe and Bocoe? And Coconuts?"
Eggman thought for a moment. "Hmmm... whatever DID happen to them?" He asked curiously.
"I don't know, you didn't bring them along," Grounder explained, sitting in a soft chair and sipping a milkshake, "Perhaps you should invite them over so that we may be able to get help." Eggman and Scratch both looked astonishingly surprised at Grounder.
"Grounder, that was intelligent!" Scratch gasped in amazement.
"And a brilliant idea!" Eggman began to search for Decoe, Bocoe, and Coconuts; via satellite.
Back on the Turbo Traffic City racecourse, May and Misty (with May driving and Misty in the back seat) were having troubles within the Turbine Tunnel against Fox McCloud (who's piloting in his shady, blue arwing). May slid down the right curve, and zoomed by a freight truck, which honked its horn at her.
Misty sweatdropped. "I wish that these bypassing vehicles wouldn't blast their horns at us!" She shouted, covering her ears as another bypassing pick-up truck loudly honked its horn.
May sighed, shaking her head. "I wish, too, but- GAH!" She and Misty screamed as their vehicle crashed into a mine, left by Fox.
"Suckers!" Fox laughed, doing a barrel roll in his arwing, avoiding a missile.
May growled, and she throttled down the road. "You're not getting away with this!" She shouted.
Fox chuckled, a gleam appearing in his left eye. "Bring it on!" He taunted, flying farther into the tunnel.
May swerved to the left lane, and watched as the vehicle acceleration got higher. May then turned to the right, followed by jumping downwards. Misty grabbed a purple, winged homing shell and threw it in front of the vehicle. May slid past the freight truck and the school bus on both sides of her, and she then went upwards. The vehicle then slipped on some oil, causing it to lose some veolcity. Passing May and Misty were Spongebob Squarepants and Patrick Star.
"Got the Krabby Patties ready?" Patrick shouted, sliding carefully to the right and avoiding an incoming, small white sedan.
Spongebob nodded. "Ready, Patrick!" He started flinging the burgers at May and Misty.
May sent out Munchlax, who started to eat the Krabby Patties (much to its delight). Misty grabbed a green shield and placed it around the vehicle, shielding it from the burgers. May called Munchlax back in, and she slammed her foot on the pedal, sending it closer to Spongebob and Patrick.
Patrick then switched positions with Spongebob. Spongebob drove crazily and crashed into several bypassing vehicles, including a bus, a food truck, and a purple min-van. May and Misty both passed the two underwater creatures with ease.
"Switch!" Misty shouted, switching with may and swerving to the right lane on the left curve, avoiding collision with a Pick-Up truck, honking its horn.
May blushed a bit, rubbing the back of her head. "Gee, you think that these people would be a bit more careful on the road, huh?"
Misty laughed, nodding in agreement. "Yeah, you're right. But then again, this IS a huge city!" She pointed out, going upwards the road, and swerving to the second left lane, slowing down a bit behind a freight truck.
Petey Piranha and King Boo were both easily overtaking several of the racers. The pair them were coming behind Peppy Ankylosaurus and Clario, who were both in Peppy's yellow kart (with Peppy himself driving).
"I'll handle this one," King Boo said, laughing as he switched driving positions with Petey Piranha and took out a Chain Chomp.
Clario glanced behind him, and shrugged. He then turned around and gasped. "P-Peppy! WE GOT TROUBLE!" He screamed, and he then started to shake Peppy.
Peppy screamed, slapping Clario across the face. 'Will you cut it out, Clario!? You're making me lose focus on the road!"
Clario rubbed his sore cheek. "Yeah, but..." He started panicking again, trembling his legs. "We got trouble coming right at us!"
Peppy stared blankly at him. "...Whut?" He then drove into a bus coming from the opposite direction, and the pair were halted in their acceleration.
King Boo chuckled as he and Petey passed the rounded pair, and then threw the Chain Chomp in front of the Piranha Pipes. The Chain Chomp barked and started running through the tunnel, easily moving through the sharp and smooth turns and causing any bypassing vehicle to explode or topple over. Fox McCloud then was seen behind them.
"Take this!" He shouted, as the started firing at King Boo and Petey Piranha with his lasers from the arwing.
King Boo turned the Piranha Pipes invisible, and he then disappeared, and reappeared on top of the arwing. He placed a motion sensor bomb on it, and disappeared, reappearing on the Piranha Pipes. He tossed a Mr. Saturn on the arwing, causing it to explode. King Boo laughed, and the Piranha Pipes became visible again. The Chain Chomp then broke off from the Piranha Pipes and bursted through the right side of the tunnel, running off.
"Good job, King Boo!" Petey complimented as he swerved to the first right lane (avoiding collision with a bus and a small, white sedan) and mini-turboed towards the right curve. As the Piranha Pipes started to accelerate downwards the tunnel, Petey and King Boo switched. Petey then took out a Bowser Shell and hurled it behind the Piranha Pipes, grinning as it started to ricochet throughout the tunnel and hit all of the vehicles in its way.
May and Misty both managed to swerve to the right, easily avoiding collision with the Bowser Shell. Misty tossed a mushroom into the engine, causing their vehicle to accelerate faster downwards. May and Misty then appeared side-to-side with Petey Piranha and King Boo.
"Let's teach you mutants a thing or two about girl power!" May shouted, punching at the Piranha Pipes.
King Boo growled. "Oh yeah!?" He switched driving positions with King Boo, and took out an Electric Sensor, attaching it to May's vehicle and pressing the red button on the remote for it, electrocuting May, Misty, and the vehicle 9causing their vehicle to slow a bit down). King Boo laughed as the Piranha Pipes turned to the right curve, and started going upwards.
Dr. Mario slid into the right curve as Pichu released a few thundershocks behind him. Dr. Mario then swerved into the 2nd left lane and passed a bus, which honked its horn in protest. Pichu then started charging up, and released a thunderbolt, electrocuting the bus (which caused it to explode and send Dr. Mario's vehicle even further) and electrocuting himself, knocking him unconscious.
Dr. Mario slapped his forehead. "Pichu, dear lord in heaven...when will he learn?" He quietly muttered as he turned left and started to accelerate downward. It was then that King K-Rool (in his "Kremling Kart") appeared right next to him.
"So, thinking that you'll win? Ha, I ultimately doubt that!" King K. Rool laughed, throwing a green Klaptrap at Dr. Mario, which started attacking the controls.
Dr. Mario screamed. "Ack! No! Pichu!" He released the steering wheel, and crashed into a bus.
King KRool laughed, as he mini-turboed to the right and slid towards the left curve while Dr. Mario tried to get the pestering green Klaptrap out, but having no luck at all.
Meanwhile, far away on the planet Mobius, within Eggman's abandoned yet properly maintained mechanical lair, Coconuts was snoozing, until he heard the phone. "Huh!? Wha-" He fell out of his chair. "Ooof! Guys! The phone!"
Bocoe answered it. "Hello... former employees of the late Dr. Eggman..."
"...Just another day in a gangster's paradise..." Decoe sang sadly while looking at pictures of the seemingly dead scientist they used to work for.
"LATE!?" Scratch screamed into the phone, "DR. ROBOTNIK'S STILL ALIVE!"
Coconuts screamed. "ALIVE!?" His head popped off, literally.
"Wh-What!?" Bocoe cried out. "He survived!?"
"That's a miracle!" Decoe came up next. "Where are you guys now!?"
"We're in Turbo Traffic City," Grounder added, "It's part of Dinosaur Land, far away from Mobius."
"We'll be right there!" Bocoe and Decoe cried in unison.
"And take me too!" Coconuts shouted, searching for his head.
Grounder and Scratch turned around, facing Dr. Eggman and smiling, "Well, boss, they'll be on their way."
"And soon, the Badnik Team will be reunited at last," Eggman said.
Scratch and Grounder nodded, smiling. "Yes! ...Now what should we do, boss?" They asked in unison.
A knock on the door was heard from the side door, before it was broken down, revealing Coconuts, Bocoe and Decoe
"...That was quick," Scratch admitted, sweatdropping.
"HEYO!" Coconuts greeted, slipping on a banana peel...and breaking himself into parts.
Eggman sighed and shook his head, after witnessing Coconuts mishap. "Better get the old toolbox out."
"...Umm... boss..." Grounder said with worry, "The Grand Emerald Highway, the road from the tunnel's exit, is ...uhm... DEMOLISHED."
"So... the racers are about to have a horrible crash?" Decoe and Bocoe both asked in unison.
"In other words... yes. And a possible fiery death," Scratch added, looking down. "So far, only the plumbers and the princess managed to find another route..."
"...Shall we get out the popcorn and watch the fun then?" Eggman suggested, sitting down in his comfortable egg-shaped sofa.
"YES!" Scratch, Grounder, and a still-being-fixed Coconuts shouted, as Scratch and Grounder sat in their chairs, took out some popcorn, and munched on it while drinking Pepsi, watching more of the race go from bad...to worse.
Yoshi/Dr. Hoshi and Brock/Dawn both continued to try and get rid of each other as they drove through the tunnel. While sliding to the right, Brock pulled out wrench and tossed it at one of the Turbo Yoshi's tires. Yoshi narrowed his eyes, and he then grabbed one of the mushrooms in Dawn's hands, taking it and putting it into the engine, sending the Turbo Yoshi furhter. As Yoshi got the wrench out of one of the tires and threw it on the ground, Dr. Hoshi carefully swerved to the left, butr he and Yoshi were both struck by Brock and Dawn, who were now using star power. Dawn grabbed a small banana peel from the item box and threw it behind her, watching in glee as Yoshi and Dr. Hoshi spun around and collided into a pick-up truck. With the star power wearing off, Brock turned to the left, and then he slowed down a bit as he went upwards. Up ahead of him and Dawn was Ash Ketchum, who was having a hard time avoiding the bypassing vehicles (which kept appearing in the lanes that Ash was going into).
"Hey! Watch it!" Ash yelled at a bypassing sedan, turning left and nearly scratching his B-Dasher into the wall. He sighed and took out a napkin, wiping his forehead. "Oh well, at least it couldn't get any worse than this."
"Oh really!?" Brock and Dawn screamed, jumping over Ash and landing in front of him.
Ash fumed, and he took out a Pokeball, releasing Torkaol. "That's it! Torkoal, flamethrower!"
Torkoal nodded. "Tork!" It then released a fiery blast at the bottom of Brock's vehicle, setting it ablaze.
Dawn screamed, jumping up and down, trying to get rid of the flames. "AHHH! FIRE! SOMEONE GET IT OFF OF ME!"
Brock went into the free zone lane and slammed on the break, halting the momentum. He got out a bucket of water and poured it all over his vehicle while Ash zoomed by and mini-turboed to the left, laughing his head off. Brock growled. "Grrrr... damn that Ash, thinking he's so clever... I thought we were bros."
Dawn also growled, looking down at her clothes, which were burnt. "Aw man... and my pretty clothes are all burnt, too..." She pouted and folded her arms. "I do not accept this!"
Yoshi and Dr. Hoshi both passed Brock and Dawn as the two Yoshisauruses turned to the left and swiftly followed Ash, swerving to the 2nd left lane and quickly swerving to the first left lane, narrowly missing a speeding bus.
"Phew... that was a close one..." Yoshi said, wiping his forehead with a napkin.
Dr. Hoshi murmured. "Yoshi, we have to be careful here, still. After all, the race isn't over yet." As he explained this to Yoshi, he powerslid to the right curve and accelerated downwards, seeing Ash right ahead of them. "Now, get out the Yoshi Egg so we can take out this fool in front of us."
Yoshi nodded, and he then saluted. "Right!" He then grabbed the railings, and waited for Dr. Hoshi to approach an item box. As the Turbo Yoshi started to go upward again, Yoshi grabbed one of the item boxes Dr. Hoshi drove through and obtained a green Yoshi Egg. As the Turbo Yoshi slid right and mini-turboed left, Yoshi carefully aimed at Ash's B-Dasher.
Ash looked in his reflector mirror, and he sighed. "Torkoal, use ember," He simply commanded, turning to the left curve and swerving into the 2nd right lane, avoiding a pick-up truck and a freight truck.
Torkoal nodded, and it released small, red balls of fire at the Turbo Yoshi. Instead of burning the Turbo Yoshi, the small, red balls of fire instead spun it around, causing the vehicle to crash into a small, white sedan.
Yoshi and Dr. Hoshi screamed. Luckily, Yoshi still had the Yoshi Egg in his right hand while he held the Turbo Yoshi's railings with his left hand, and Dr. Hoshi started the engine up again and quickly went after Ash, swerving into the middle lane.
"Carefully, Yoshi." Dr. Hoshi said as he turned right and swerved into the 1st left lane, avoiding collision with a school bus.
Yoshi growled. Concentrating and closing his eyes, as the Turbo Yoshi turned right and got closer to Ash's B-Dasher, Yoshi yelled a war cry, and released the Yoshi Egg. The Yoshi Egg, however, missed and instead hit a small, yellow-greenish sedan. A star (which was in front of the Turbo Yoshi), a green Koopa shell, and a fart cloud came out.
"...A fart cloud?" Dr. Hoshi asked in disbelief, shuddering in disgust and shaking his head. "Oh for fuck's sake, never mind... I don't want to know..." He ran over the star, and the Turbo Yoshi gained a bit more momentum, sliding upwards the left curve, and ramming into Ash, causing him and Torkoal to lose their momentum.
Yoshi and Dr. Hoshi huggged each other briefly, before realizing what they were doing and got back into their racing positions, bursting through bypassing vehicles with star power as they sped upwards (and slid rightward) in the seemingly very long Turbine Tunnel.
Vector the Crocodile and Espio the Chameleon, as were Sonic/Amy/Knuckles/Rouge and Tails/Cream, were trying to get back up their cars, but noticed that a few other racers, including Wave the Swallow and Storm the Albatross, past by them.
"Can't we go faster!?" Espio shouted, inflating the wheel tires.
Knuckles the Echidna tweaked the engine of his vehicle one more time, and he wiped his forehead. "Phew! Finished..." He looked at his other three mammalian companions - Sonic the Hedgehog, Amy Rose, and Rouge the Bat (in case anyone forgot). "All right, guys, get in!" He jumped into the backseat.
"Whew, that's good to hear," Sonic said as he hopped into the driver's seat, "How much of a lead do the other racers have anyway?"
Knuckles checked the positions, and he frowned. "Apparently, after we crashed a few minutes ago, we are approximately..." He then noticed Bronto and Drumstick zooming by. "...in fourty fifth place."
"And we're in forty fourth place! Ha!" Vector laughed as he and Espio zoomed off in their vehicle, exiting the free zone lane and going back into the 1st right lane.
Sonic stuck his feet out the bottom and starts to run in place as he revved up the engine. "Hang on guys! I'll get us back in the game!" They took off at lightning speed, leaving a trail of flames in the free zone lane behind.
Tails and Cream followed, avoiding the flames and following their friends, but colliding into a bus coming from the opposite direction.
Bronto swerved to the second left lane, and he grabbed a banana peel. He tossed it behind him, and watched in glee as Drumstick slid on it and spun around, crashing into a freight truck.
"Look out!" Vector shouted, as Espio placed a star in the vehicle, and went through Bronto, sending the blue Brontosaurus crashing upwards on the tunnel's ceiling, and falling back down, landing on Drumstick. Both of the two characters then got rammed by a freight truck.
Vector powerslided to the right, swerving to the left as he and Espio avoided a bus. Espio turned around and released some needles on the road, ensuring the coming racers' vehicle tires would pop. Vector then bounced over a lone green Koopa shell, and slid down the downwards left curve.
Sonic winced at what just happened to Bronto and Drumstick as he and his friends started to come neat the needles. Using his fleet feet to guide the Kart, Sonic served, jumped, and bounced over the needles, trying to catch up to Vector and Espio.
Amy looked back and winced, frowning. "Poor Tails...and Cream... Do you think they'll be all right? AHHHHH!" She cried out as Sonic jumped them over a bus.
Pipsy and Shelia both zoomed past Tails and Cream as they tried to start their engine again, but were hit by a freight truck.
"Get lost!" Shelia shouted, ramming Pipsy into the wall on the right side of the tunnel, "You're not going to make me almost lose like you did a few minutes ago!"
Pipsy growled, pushing Shelia's vehicle to the side. "You're the one to talk!" She protested in an annoying, high-pitched tone of voice. "You were the one who left behind exaust gas and forced me to swerve and hit the banana peel!"
"Well it's not my fault!" Shelia retorted, as he rammed Pipsy into the right side wall again, causing some scratches on Pipsy's light car.
A bus then rammed into them, causing both of the female characters to lose their momentum on the road.
"Ouch..." Rouge murmured, wincing in pain as she watched the crash. "That doesn't seem like good luck to me..."
Passing Tails and Cream were Link and Samus, both of them in their own separate modes of transportation (Link on Epona, Samus in a miniature version of her star ship).
"Still think that technology will get you ahead, huh?" Link laughs, taking out his bow-and-arrow. "Watch and learn." He fired an arrow at one of the tires on Sonic's vehicle, causing it to pop and deflate. "Simple as that."
"Shut up!" Samus shouted, bumping into Epona, who slowed down a bit.
Link growled. "Hey! That's not fair!" He tightened the reins on Epona. "Epona, let's go!"
Epona neighed, and she started to run faster, outpacing Samus's star-ship and catching up to Sonic/Amy/Knuckles/Rouge.
Rouge gasped. "Knuckles, that elfe boy and his horse is coming! Do something!" She shouted.
Link focused his sight on the road, and he held onto the reigns tightly as Epona ran to the left curve, managing to outpace Sonic and his friends. Epona then shifted to the first right lane, avoiding a speeding green mini-van, and Link then tossed behind him a small bomb.
Samus started to pick up speed in her starship, and she flew over a freight truck as she turned to the left and flew right above Sonic and his friends, dropping a few flames on them.
Sonic swerved away from the flames, as Knuckles set to work on the tire. "Yeow! Hot foot!" Sonic cried as he dashed through the flames.
Tails and Cream both were using mushrooms and trying to catch up. They mini-turboed onto the left curve, but accidentally crashed into the left side wall. As Tails grabbed the steering wheel and backed up, he and Cream where hurtled by a Bowser Shell, which continued to ricochet throughout the tunnel.
Link galloped even further, as he winded up behind Espio and Vector.
Espio switched positions with Vector. "Vector, you handle the driving!" The purple, kick-ass ninja Chameleon then got into a trance. "I'll handle this fool."
Vector took the wheel and steadied the vehicle carefully, enough for Espio to take on Link.
Espio then opened his eyes and released ninja stars at Epona, causing her to fall down (and sending Link crashing on the ground, facefirst). Espio grinned. "Good work, Vector," He said in a calm voice, looking back behind him and wondering about the other racers as Vector slid to the right curve.
Samus flew past the injured Epona, and she smirked as she noticed Link moaning in pain. She then flew to the right curve and aimed at Espio and Vector. "Aiming...aiming..."
"Holy crap! In coming!" Vector cried out, as he turned to the right curve and quickly swerved to the first right lane.
Samus then fired a charged shot at Vector and Espio, blasting them. She cheered, but her starship then crashed into the tunnel's ceiling, causing it to fall down and crash. It was then run over by a freight truck several seconds later.
"I guess those who laugh will get theirs!" Link laughed as he galloped on Epona, when Epona collided into a leftover mine and fell over (causing Link to fall flat on his face again).
Sonic the Hedgehog, Amy Rose, Knuckles the Echidna, and Rouge the Bat used this opportunity to get themselves a mushroom, and used it to zoom past the downed Super Smash Brothers warriors.
King K. Rool swifted to the second left lane as he passed by a green-and-brown jeep. He slid to the right and picked up an item box, grabbing three green Koopa shells. He tossed one of them to the back, and held onto the other two. In front of him were Wave the Swallow and Storm the Albatross. He chuckled, and as he slid to the left curve downwards, he fired another green Koopa shell, hitting Storm and knocking him down. King K. Rool then shifted to the first right lane and fired a green Koopa shell at Wave. The Kremling King then swerved around the tunnel's right loop and shifted into the second right lane, watching in delight as the green Koopa shell hit Wave and stuttered her waveboard's momentum.
Just then, Gruntilda Winkybuinion appeared behind King K. Rool, keeping a safe distance between her vehicle and King K. Rool's kart.
"At last, I found you, now either move out of the way or I'll have to get through!" Gruntilda rhymed terribly, as she started blasting at King K. Rool's kart, slowing it down.
King K. Rool growled, and he stepped on the back, halting the kart's momentum and forcing Gruntilda's vehicle to crash into it.
BOOOOM!
"Look what you did, you stupid crocodile!" Gruntilda angrily shouted, whacking King K. Rool in the head, "Now I'll have to fix my kart, which will take me a while!"
King K. Rool snarls at Gruntilda. "Shut up, you ugly bitch witch! Had you not been blasting at me, I wouldn't have to halt!" He quickly fixed his kart, attached a rocket booster to the back of his kart's engine, and went zooming back onto the road as the rocket booster propelled the engine's speed.
Gruntilda sighed, and she snapped her fingers. Her vehicle returned to normal, and she got in, and blasted right after King K. Rool, leaving behind her a trail of fire (which severely burned the road and caused the bypassing vehicles to cram into the other lanes).
Making a sharp turn on the right curve (narrowly missing collision with a freight truck), King K. Rool pushed his kart's pedal harder, forcing the kart to accelerate up as the rocket booster fell off and exploded. Gruntilda swerved to the first left lane, and she started firing spells at the tunnel's ceiling, causing the rubble above to fall and cause some trouble for the racers behind.
Daisy was driving carefully as she turned to the right and swerved carefully into the first right lane. She turned to Toad and Toadette. "Guys, I have to have some help, or else we won't be able to get out of here!" She looked at the infamous Mushroom Kingdom representative. "Toad, you handle any of the car's damages." She looked at the cute pink mushroom girl. "Toadette, you take care of our opponents and handle the items." She looked at both Toad and Toadette. "Got it, you two?"
Toad and Toadette both saluted. "Yes, Daisy, ma'am!" They said, as Toad checked the engine while Toadette waited for an item.
Daisy smiled and nodded, and she turned back to face the road, sliding to the left and shifting to the second right lane as she avoided collision with a small, white sedan.
As Daisy drove, the entire tunnel started to shake, and several freight trucks and buses toppled on their side, causing the bypassing vehicles on both sides of the road to stop. Daisy, Toad, and Toadette all frowned as they noticed this, and Daisy slowed their vehicle down.
"What...what is this?" Toadette gasped, covering her mouth.
Toad looked at the toppled trucks and buses. "It's...it's like there was an earthquake around here..." He started to tremble, whimpering in fright.
Daisy gulped. "D-don't worry, guys..." She said, her voice shaky, "I'll find a way out of here..." She turned over to the first right lane and zoomed off, swerving to the second right lane as the bypassing vehicles all halted and stared at the toppled vehicles.
Back with the Sonic the Hedgehog characters (that practically no one cares about anyway), Vector the Crocodile and Espio the Chameleon are having a hard time with Miles "Tails" Prower and Cream the Rabbit (with Cheese the Chao tagging along as well), who surprisingly managed to make a comeback. Behind these characters are Sonic the Hedgehog/Amy Rose/Knuckles the Echidna/Rouge the Bat.
"All right, everyone, I'm gonna try and pass these guys," Sonic explained to his three mammalian partners, "But I'm gonna need everyone's foot power for this. Ya ready?"
Knuckles, Amy, and Rouge all got it, getting their feet on the ground. "READY!" They all shouted to Sonic, smiling.
"Let's go!" Sonic shouted, and everyone started to run in place; their foot power adding to the Kart's speed. The Kart took off, speeding by Tails/Cream and the Chaotix in a flash.
Vector rammed into Tails/Cream as he slid sharply into the right curve. Espio punched at the Tornado, causing Tails and Cream to crash into a food truck.
Vector then slammed his foot on the pedal, and took out a red Koopa shell, firing it at Sonic/Amy/Knuckles/Rouge, which stopped their momentum. As Vector and Espio passed them, Espio fired a few pellets at one of the tires, popping it and slowing the four mammalians even more.
"Good work, Espio!" Vector congratulated with a chuckle as he swerved into the second lane and turned right.
"Awww damn!" Sonic exclaimed, slamming his fist on the steering wheel angrily. "Our tires!"
Espio laughed. "Suckers!" He then threw one of his ninja stars at another of Sonic's vehicle tires, also popping them.
"Quick!" Knuckles shouted to Amy and Rouge, handing them air pumps, "Quickly pump the tires! We can't avord to lose!"
Amy Rose and Rouge the Bat both quickly set to work, pumping up the tires as fast as they could while Sonic used his feet to keep the vehicle going.
Suddenly, the Turbine Tunnel started to shake, and rubbel then came bursting from the top of the tunnel's ceiling, falling on the bypassing vehicles and on some of the racers, including Vector/Espio and Sonic/Amy/Knuckles/Rouge.
"AHHH!" Vector gasped, trying to move his vehicle, but not having any luck. "Wait... what the hell's going on!?"
Espio growled, pulling the rubble off of him and looking at the tunnel's ceiling, which has been exposed. "The ceiling... it collasped!"
Knuckles gpased for air as he pulled himself and Rouge out of the rubble. "Hey, what's the big idea?" He angrily shouted, punching at the rubble and grabbing Sonic and Amy, "We were perfectly fine, well, sorta fine, until that rubble came down on us like no tomorrow!"
Sonic and Amy, however, seemed to have been knocked unconcious by the cave in, which was unfortunate for Knuckles and Rouge.
"Knuckles... Sonic and Amy aren't moving!" Rouge exclaimed, gasping and covering her mouth, worrying. "The cave-in must have knocked them out!"
Knuckles gasped and his jaw dropped. "Oh no!" He cried in the same memetastic way as he did in Sonic Adventure 1, as he and Rouge desperately tried to wake Sonic and Amy up.
The race is getting more action-packed and more suspenful as ever...will the racers managed to make it onwards through the Grand Emerald Highway in peace, or will they suffer a terrible fate like some of the racers...find out, next time on...Yoshi Kart!
"Recent Update: July 31, 2007. Wonder why that date is so significant." Yoshi murmured while driving around in a lime green pipe framed kart.
Dr. Hoshi adjusted his glasses while drifting by in his own purple car. "Well perhaps sometime in the future the author will give an answer for that."
