'Super Dragon' Yoshi. (pg 3)
A green reptile bursts out of the bushes with a great grin on his face! He is about the size of a very big dog, and struts about happily with a big round watermelon in his hands. He is clearly overjoyed about having the thing, and then just as suddenly as he had appeared another one of his kind - this one blue, instead of green - jumps out of the jungle straight over the green ones head and nabs the fruit right out of his hands!
The green creature turns and growls at the theiving blue as he disappears back into the jungle. Then he smiles big as he races off to find him.
Somewhere far overhead a stork is in great distress as he is encircled by a crazy character flying on a broom and it's twisted toadies who fly around menacingly cutting off his escape. He is especialy worried because he is carrying in a bundle two little one who were to be delivered to The Mushroom Kingdom, and he had made it only as far as Yoshi's Island so far and still had a ways to go. Now the babies, and even himself, were being faced by this most unexpected threat.
In the tussle the character flying on the broom reveals himself to be a kidnapper when he makes an attempt to grab the two youngsters. He grabs the green-hat first which he is surprised to find has his hand connected to the red-hat kid's foot, he then concludes that this is a pefectly safe, and even effective way to carry two human babies. He turns to swoop away which, little to the notice of the kidnapper, causes the green-hat baby to lose his grip, and the stork watches in horror as the little red-hat baby plunges towards the Island below. The stork begins to dive to save him but is instead swiftly bagged by the creepy toadie creatues.
As Baby Mario falls he looks up happily at his brother and smiles and waves. 'Finaly!' he thought 'I made it out of that constricting bundle!'
Meanwhile, in the jungle paradise below, about ten of the little dinosaur-like creatures called yoshis, after the island the inhabit, can be found sqabbling all over eachother as a single watermelon is repeatedly tossed in the air above them all, and one after another makes lunges for it.
Eventualy it is tossed far up into the air and all make a leap for it at once, but much to all their surprise, the same green one from before, who was sometimes teased because no one had ever named him, came jumping straight out of a tree overhead while his tongue darted out to grab the watermelon. It connects, and is curled, quick as a wink, back into his mouth. He lands on the ground with a big smile on his face as he chews a little and some sweet watermelon juice squirts out of his mouth, in a very childish way. All around the other yoshis land, and then they all shout out in joy for a good fair ending to their game. They each pull out fruits of their own, and all of them relax and eat there in the jungle clearing to celebrate.
Then the green yoshi, whom was generaly just called 'Yoshi' because he had never been given a name, or even chosen one, turned to all the other and declared "Okay! I won the game, so I want to pick a name for myself now!"
The other yoshis were shocked! One spun around and pretended to die from choking on his fruit. They had always just called this guy 'Yoshi', and it was starting to seem like they always would.
"Well, then..." started a red yoshi, "What is it? What is your name?"
All of them waited in suspense as the green yoshi looked around as if he was about to share a really great secret. They all moved in close as he stooped down low as if to indicate a huddle should form. He began in a hushed tone "I've decided that from now on everyone my real and true name is..." He paused for dramatics.
"Ahhh! WHAT!?" screamed a yellow yoshi.
"Super Dragon Yoshi!!!" the green yoshi exclaimed loudly as he lept up out of the huddle and into the air to reflect the pure gradiose of the wonderful name he had chosen. All of the other yoshis laughed heartily at such a clever name, and everyone liked it.
One pink yoshi had a question though. "Well, Super Dragon Yoshi, should we call you by your whole name all the time" she asked with a shy smile on her face "or can we call you something for short?"
Meanwhile, a turquoise colored yoshi turned to an orange one and asked in a hushed voice "Wait a minute, we aren't dragons, are we? I thought we were some kind of dinosaurs!"
The orange one turned and shrugged. "You don't like the thought of being a dragon?" He said with a smile.
The, rather unexpectedly a black yoshi none of them had even noticed turned to them from where he had been napping in the shade, and replied very mtter-of-factly "Oh, it dosen't matter. I think we're just yoshis and thats all."
Green Yoshi had been thinking about his question though. "Oh, well," He replied to the pink yoshi after pondering it a little "it dosen't matter to me... actualy, I would prefer if you just kept calling me 'Yoshi' for short, since that's what I'm used to, afterall." But then he turned to the rest of his friends and said much louder "But everyone should remember that I am SUPER DRAGON Yoshi! Winner of the Watermelon Game... that we just made up!" All of the yoshis laughed and played around some more, and had fun calling Yoshi by his newly chosen name, for a couple a minutes, but then something caught Yoshi's eye. Something small and red was bouncing from cloud to cloud just above the trees in who's shade he and all the other yoshis were playing. Little did he know then that he was about to meet his first friend that wasn't another yoshi in his whole life. He, likewise, could never have guessed what a great friend he would turn out to be.
