Author's Note: Yup, yopu all guessed it correctly; another poker chapter! Yay!
Disclaimer: Why do I even bother...(sigh) I'm just going to lay down on my bed all day long, and listen to Pulp Fiction...wait, I wasn't allowed to say that? D'oh!
------------
The storm is still roaring, and the rain is getting heavier. The thunder is booming louder, the waves are becoming more ferocious, and the lighting bolts strike light and beauty in the air. But of course, what do you guys care? This is in the Wonder Fields island of Dinosaur Land, and it's here that we see our favorite (and not-so-favorite) characters STILL playing some good ol' fashion poker after nearly 4 hours...
Ganondorf passes out the cards once more, and everyone looks at them.
"Hit me!" Fox McCloud shouts, wanting to have an advantage over Wario and Falco.
Ganondorf reaches over and punches Fox McCloud in the stomach.
"Ouch! Very funny...um, "give me another card," then." Fox meant, clearing hisvoice after he rubs his injury.
Ganondorf hands Fox his card.
Fox adds the card to his card pile, and he looks at everyone else. "Fold."
"Fold." Yoshi says, folding his cards on the table.
"Fold." Falco says, folding his cards on the table.
Wario smirks, looking at Ganondorf. "Hit me." Ganondorf hands Wario his card. Wario smirks again. "Hit me." Ganondorf hands him another card. Wario continues smirking. "Hit me." Ganondorf, once more, hands Wario yet another card. Wario continues to smirk, thinking up of a good plan. "Hit me."
Everyone, including Ganondorf, Bronto the Brontosaurus, and Tiptup the Turtle, sighs in exasperation.
Banjo the Honeybear leans over and whispers something in Wario's ear.
Wario nods, listening carefully to Banjo. "Ooohhh...is that right? 2000?" He turns to Ganondorf and everyone else as Banjo leans back. "...Okay, I'll call. NO!! All that beautiful money..."
Peppy sighs. "Wario, we already said it for the third time. We're not playing with real money..."
Kazooie frowns. "Not real money??? Aw man..."
Banjo comforts Kazooie, patting his breegull friend on the head. "Don't worry, Kazooie, you'll still get that birdseed."
Kazooie growls. "I better, of there's gonna be trouble..."
Wario groans, rubbing his chin as he looks at his pile. "But still...oh well." Wario drops his cards and everyone can see he has 3000 total.
Ganondorf sighs. "All right, then, let's do one more round." The Gerudo King gets all of everyone's cards, and he passes out the cards again.
Heppy looks up. "Call. I'll bet 1000."
Everyone throws in the chips.
"I'll meet your 2000, and raise you 200!" Kazooie shouts, smirking.
Everyone groans, and throws in the chips.
Falco looks at Ganondorf. "Hit me." He gets the card, and he folds his pack of cards. "Fold."
Wario looks at his cards, then at Ganondorf. "Hit me." He gets the card. "Hit me." He gets another card. Wario smirks. "Hit me."
"Aw, come on! Enough already! Hey, lay off, will ya?" Everyone moans, as Wario gets yet another card from Ganondorf.
Wario, grinning and feeling confident, folds his cards. "Fold."
Coco rolls her eyes. "Baby. I'll bet 2500."
"Are you kiddin' me...?" Kazooie says in disbelief.
Peppy stutturs. "Uhh, um...I fold."
Everyone laughs and tosses in the chips. Peppy growls, since he has lost 3000 worth of chips to Banjo and Kazooie.
Yoshi folds his cards. "I fold."
Crash nods, turning to Ganondorf as he takes several Tortilla chips into his mouth. "Hit me." He gets another card.
Ganondorf nods. "All right, everyone, show your cards..."
After a grueling 4 hours of playing poker, the game finally ended. Yoshi, Crash Bandicoot, and Heppy Ankylosaurus are tied at 1800. Coco Bandicoot, Vincent Valentine, and Falco Lombardi are tied at 2300, Wario and Peppy Ankylosaurus are tied with 2400, and both Banjo and Kazooie, with the highest profits of chips, get 3500.
Kazooie chuckles maniacally and slides the chips toward her and Banjo.
"Geh heh heh...looks like I'll be able to have that birdseed after all, Banjo," The female, red-crested breegull chuckled.
Banjo rolled his eyes. "Oh Kazooie, you want everything out of a poker game."
Wario slammed his fist on the table. "But it's not fair, Kazooie! You cheated!"
"Tell it to the wing, fatso," Kazooie said, turning away from the table as Wario fumed with rage.
Ganondorf shrugged, placing all of the cards away. "Oh well. It WAS a good game, anyway."
Tiptup, who has finished recording the match, nodded in agreement with Ganondorf. "Yeah. Let's do it again, sometime."
Everyone else agreed, and they all started to pack up as the camera pans to the background, and fades to black once more.
Well, I hope that you folks out there all enjoyed the poker match! I sure did! XP See ya next time for the next race, in Yoshi Kart!
