Taj and Crazy Hand both noticed that the racers were getting pissed, as were the audience, who were getting tired of waiting. Looking at each other, they sighed and nodded as they approached Master Hand.
"No offense, M. H.," Taj started as he rubbed the back of his head with his right blue hand, speaking firmly with his Indian accent, "But me and Crazy Hand detect that you purposely have been holding back the grand prix from going under way."
"Yeah, why is that?" Crazy Hand interjected as he floated in front of Master Hand, his twitchy fingers being less twitchy as he felt concerned. "Every time a race starts, it ends up either delayed or outright cancelled!"
Master Hand murmured as he clenched his fist. "Well, I'm trying to do my best to keep this story relevant to the masses. After all..." He snapped his fingers, revealing a calendar from the year 2015. "In a little more than two years from now, Yoshi Kart will officially be ten years old? Isn't that great?"
"It would be great, if we actually got the race under way and focused on it instead of doing stuff like this," Taj muttered as he snapped his fingers, making the calendar disappear.
Crazy Hand grabbed Master Hand, pulling him up close. "All right, where did you dump Yoshi and the rest of the missing racers?"
"...In the Click Clock Wood." Master Hand gulped as he knew that he could be in trouble.
Looking at each other, Taj and Crazy Hand sighed as they teleported out of the area and headed to the Click Clock Wood, in hopes of getting the missing racers back. Master Hand started to move his own fingers crazily, getting another devious idea.
"I feel like this entire chapter is an elaborate April Fools joke." Yoshi muttered to himself as he continued climbing the giant brown tree in Click Clock Wood's spring portion with the others, with Dry Bowser leading the way.
