Hi, you may recall last weeks, erm, post, about me going off to Camp Nintendo. Yes? Well, today, it's Dark Mark's turn. You may remember me deciding to do a Camp Sony and a Camp MS one, but after some suggestions, I've decided to do more Camp Ninty one's. Anyway, I'll eave you with Mark from now on.
Mark: Oh, it's you. Well, here I am, on a coach, heading towards Camp Nintendo. I have absolutely no idea what is in store for me, and for some reasons I chose Yoshi as my Favourite character. Yes, I know, it will probably result in me turning green and looking like a dinosaur, but hey, my fault for choosing him in the first place. Anyway, I want to go to sleep, so errr, excuse me while I lob this camera out of the window.
*The screen shows the camera flying through the air, and flying through someone's windscreen*
Bloke: OY!
Mark: heh-heh.
When Mark arrived at Camp Nintendo, he was still asleep, and he has an, er, reputation, so we left him alone. When he finally awoke three hours later, everyone had already entered their dorms, and Mark was alone.
Mark: Heh, that'll teach 'em for getting me up at 7 in the morning!
He wandered off and headed for the reception.
Receptionist: Hiya!
Mark: Oh God.
Receptionist: Welcome to Camp Nintendo, name please?
Mark: Er, Mark, I guess…
Receptionist: Ah, yes, Mark. Yoshi, correct?
Mark: Yeah. Give me my pass.
Receptionist: OK, here you go. Head off to the left, through the doors, and the Mushroom Kingdom dorm is on the right.
Mark: Yes, great. How much they paying you to say that?
Mark walked off, passed through the doors and headed to the small, rectangular building. He opened the door and went inside. He fell back in amazement.
Mark: Oh, this is where I fall back in amazement? *Throws down script* Ok, look at me, I'm falling, and I'm amazed. Yes, get that on film? Good, now, where are we, ah, yes. Wow, it looks just like the Mushroom kingdom! There's goombas, Koopas, bullet bills, ah, and look, there's Mario and Luigi!
Mark walked over, and very reluctantly, said Hello.
Mario: Hi, I'm Tim, I mean, er, Mario.
Mark: yes, very Italian, at least you look like him anyway. Right, where's my bed? I'm knackered!
Mario: But you slept the whole way here!
Mark: How do you know that?
Mario: Er, beside the point. Your bed's over there, in that treehouse.
Mark: Yeah, just like Yoshi's house on Super Mario World. Ah well, at least it doesn't have the annoying birds everywhere. Better go then.
And off he went, cursing at anything that annoyed him. When he arrived at his house, he sat down on the bed and went to sleep.
When he arose, he got up and felt a sharp pain near his buttocks.
Mark: Ow! Get off my tail! What? My tail! I have a friggin' tail? Right, yes, very funny, now take it off!
Goomba1: Hello! Princess Peach wanted you up, so I had to bite you. No arms. *Looks at waist*
Mark: Heh, your fault for choosing a goomba. Wait, don't I eat you?
Goomba1: Well, in the games, yes, but…
Mark: Good enough for me!
And with that, his long tongue reached out and he ate the goomba.
Mark: heh, at least this tongue's good for something. Right, better go and see Peach-o.
He walked off in the direction of the Castle, and attempted to open the door.
Mark: Damn these small arms! Suppose I should use my tongue.
After about ten minutes, he opened the door and walked inside.
Peach: Ah, yes, Yoshi. We had everyone except a Yoshi.
Mark: yeah, can't go without the Yosh-meister.
Peach: Quite. Anyway, I have some information for you. I need you and Mario to go off and find me some cows.
Mark: There's no cows in the Mushroom kingdom, muppet!
Peach: Don't call me a muppet, if anything, I'm a fruit… *sobs*
Mark: Heh, wuss. Now, where's that overgrown plumber?
Mario: It's-a me, Mario!
Mark: Look, you know, and I know, you can't do an Italian accent. Now drop it.
Mario: Ok, ok, only if you say Yoshi in that high-pitched voice!
Mark: Stuff that. Anyway, the sooner we find something that resembles a cow, the sooner I can go back to sleep.
Mario: Ok-dokey!
Mark: Tsk, never learn, they never bloody learn…
They walked out of the castle and ventured off into the woods.
Mario: Hey, Mark or Yoshi, erm, whatever you're called, I wanna ride!
Mark: You want a what?
Mario: A ride! Everyone rides Yoshi!
Mark: Look, I'm not some sort of Intimate toy you know.
*He jumps onto Mark*
Mark: ooof! How much do you weigh?
Mario: It's a my beer belly!
Mark: oh, shut up!
And with that, he flung Mario into a bush. He heard a large crack, and satisfied that he had broken his neck, he wandered on.
Mark: Right, now, where would a cow be? Hmmm… always the green dinosaurs that get this. If only I could fly. Hang on, I'm a Yoshi! DUH! Blue Koopas!
Blue Cooper1: Hello, my name's Larry. Can I be your friend?
Mark: Right, give me that shell. He stretched his tongue out, grabbed the Koopa, and pulled him back into his mouth. He spat the koopa-boy out and kept the shell in his mouth. Wings appeared on his sides.
Mark: Heh, and they said I wasn't smart.
He flew off in search of a cow-shaped something. After a while, he came across a new boy, who had just ventured into the Mushroom Kingdom- and had yet begun his transformation.
Boy: Ah, cool, there's a Yoshi and everything!
Mark: Can I see your form?
Boy: yes, here you go.
Mark studied the form. Next to FAVOURITE CHARACTER the boy had written "The koopa with the hammers".
Mark: You mean hammer bros.?
Boy: Ahh, that's their name!
Mark: Actually, they were renamed, er, Cow.
Boy: Cow? Oh, better change my form then.
He rubbed out what he had previously written and wrote cow. With that, he dropped his stuff, and turned into a cow.
Mark: Haha, got ya!
Boy/cow: Moo? Damn moo Yoshi!
Mark: Ha, better go take you to Peach-o.
After they flew back using Mark's newly formed wings; Peach greeted them in the main Foyer.
Peach: Ah, good work Yoshi. Have a cookie.
Mark: Yoshi's cookie. Should have seen that coming.
Peach: I have some news for you Yoshi. The door to the outside world closed, and there's no way out.
Mark: You mean, I have to stay as Yoshi?
Peach: Yeah.
Mark: Oh great, just great!
Peach: You’re telling me! All I can do is bake a bloody cake!
Mark: heh, save me some.
Peach: the cheek!
Mark: yeah, comes with the job. Oh well, better go back home, I guess.
He walked back over to his treehouse; his sadness in his face quickly disappeared with a quick smile.
Mark: Ooh, wow, that girl hasn't changed yet! I have an idea!
He walked over to the girl, snatched her form, rubbed out "Boo" and scribbled Birdo. And with that, she changed into Birdo.
Birdo Girl: Hey, wasn't Birdo Yoshi's Girlfriend?
Mark: Heh, indeed. My Bed's just over there…
And for some reason, Being Yoshi forever didn't seem that bad after all...
