Author's Notes: So, I'm going to do a very ambitious project. I am going to FINISH this fanfic so I can start on a new one. I can't believe a new yoshi game already came out! Man, I was not expecting that. I am full of ideas so, I hope you all enjoy the story! ^^ These chapters are gonna be relatively short for now, but that's because I'm just getting warmed up.

Windblown Wilderness

"Alright Baby DK, let's get you to Sirius!" shouted Sapphira rather enthusiastically.

The baby chimp clapped and giggled from her enthusiasm. Sapphira smiled at the baby and continued to walk ahead.

Meanwhile, Mitch would be spying on the light blue yoshi with his binoculars. He carefully followed the yoshi's movement, attempting to learn her tactics.

"You know all the yoshi does is jump from platform to platform. Maybe swallow some enemies? And then jump more platform? What is there to learn?" said Bob.

"Hold on Bob, I need to observe his movements. That is a male yoshi, right?" replied Mitch.

Bob became momentarily quiet. "I don't know. Maybe it's a boy?"

"It's a boy! Come on, it should be obvious," said Carl.

"Might be a girl, though. You never know," said Mitch.

Bob pushes Mitch away from him and snatched the binoculars. He peered through the binoculars and observed the yoshi himself. "Hmmm...I think it's a boy."

Mitch slowly stood up and wiped his robe. "You know, you may be right Bob. We shouldn't jump to conclusions though. We don't have any decisive evidence," said Mitch.

"Oh, so you're challenging me now!?" shouted Bob all of a sudden.

"What, challenging you on what?" replied Mitch, being rather confused.

"I will prove to you that the yoshi is a male!" Bob immediately flew away.

Carl immediately follow Bob behind. "Ooooh, I wanna help!"

Mitch reluctantly followed as well. "I don't think this is going to end well," he mumbled to himself.

Sapphira stood next to the stork stop and waited. A few minutes passed and the stork did not arrive. The light blue yoshi sat down and just stared at the sky.

"I wonder what is taking the stork so long. I would expect him to follow us," said Sapphira to Baby DK. The baby chimp would just be sleeping on her back.

"Oh my goodness, I am so sorry!" cried out the stork from afar. He flew above Sapphira and immediately grabbed Baby DK and threw Baby Peach onto Sapphira's back.

"By now!" shouted the stork, flying away in a rush.

"I wonder what he's rushing for," said Sapphira.

The stork placed the babies below a tree and quickly flew up to a female stork, who was perched onto the tree.

"So, where were we?" said the stork in a flirtatious manner.

Sapphira traversed through the windy area with no problem. Baby Peach instinctively opened up her parasol, allowing the yoshi to fly up much higher. She scaled through the cliff and used the wind and parasol to fly up higher. She eventually saw some conveniently placed arrows and followed it.

She saw a large skull that stood over a small gap.

"I wonder what sort of creature that skull belonged too," said Sapphira. She purposefully fell into the gap and landed near a door. She opened the door and walked inside.

A kangaroo with a rather large pouch stared at the yoshi. Sapphira walked up to the kangaroo and stared at it back.

After a few minutes of awkward staring Sapphira blinked and shook her head.

"I do not know what I'm supposed to do here," said Sapphira. She looked at the baby on her back, hoping for some enlightenment.

Me: *facepalm*

"I want to ride the kangaroo!" shouted Carl all of a sudden.

"No, Carl! That's not what we're here for!" cried out Bob as he chased after Carl.

"Uhm, I believe the pouch is only for the infant, if it has one. Kangaroos can also be rather defensive creatures so I wouldn't try to get so close to one," said Sapphira. "The pouch is used strictly for nursing and protecting its child."

Carl jumps into the kangaroo's pouch. He waved his arm and shouted as if he was in an amusement park ride. The kangaroo stared at Carl for a few moment. Suddenly, it flashed its sharp teeth at Carl.

"Come on, jump!" shouted Carl. He kicked the Kangaroo's belly within the pouch. Suddenly, the kangaroo shrieked and bit Carl's head.

"Aaaaaaaaah!" cried out Carl in pain. He jumped out of the Kangaroo and runs around in circles, having the kangaroo still biting onto his head.

Mitch and Bob grabbed onto the Kangaroo's feet and attempted to pull the Kangaroo off of Carl's head. Pulling only caused more pain for Carl, so the Toadies stopped immediately.

Mitch pondered for a moment. A light bulb lit over his head. "Ah hah! "

Mitch flew over to the light blue yoshi and grabbed one of her eggs. "I need to borrow this." he said. He quickly threw the egg at the kangaroo. The kangaroo let go of Carl and glared at Mitch.

"Run away!" shouted Mitch.

All of the Toadies flew away. As soon as the Toadies were out of sight, the Kangaroo calmed down and hoped closer to Sapphira. The Kangaroo picked up Sapphira and placed her into its pouch.

"Thanks," said Sapphira, smiling at the Kangaroo.

The Kangaroo jumped high into the air and hovered over the wall briefly, allowing Sapphira to grab the coins up in the air. Sapphira held onto the kangaroo's pouch while baby Peach giggled by the thrills of riding the kangaroo. Eventually, the kangaroo made one final jump and landed hard on the ground. Sapphira instinctively jumped out of the pouch and entered through the door at the dead end.

The rest of the way would be rather eventless. The orange sky gradually turned darker and the stars began to appear one-by-one. She jumped into the air and Baby Peach opened up her parasol, allowing the yoshi to soar much higher into the air. Sapphira finally reached her goal and spotted Sirius lying under the familiar tree.

Sapphira walked up to Sirius and places the baby next to her.

"Well, I made it safely. I hope you had a nice rest," said Sapphira.

Sirius stood up and placed the baby onto her saddle. "Yep, I'm ready to kick some butt!"

The toadies arrived at Hector the Reflector's Haunted House. They landed near the entrance and banged on the door as hard as they could.

"Kaaaaaammmeeeeeeek!" shouted the Toadies simultaneously.

Kamek reluctantly opened the door. "What do you freaks want?"

Kamek dropped his wand as soon as he saw an angry kangaroo staring down at the Toadies from behind. He slowly picked up his wand and closed the door shut.

Color of the day: Light blue

Light (sky) blue: peace, serenity,

As you can tell from this chapter, Sapphira avoids any sort of problems. She prefers to keep peace, but of course that is not always possible. I really admire her calm and peaceful personality. It sometimes reflect myself at times. Even though Sapphira doesn't always resolve peace, she does at least have enough influence to prevent situations from getting far worse.

Anyways, I hope you enjoy this chapter! For now, I am going to keep these chapters short because I rather not use up all of my ideas in one single chapter. See you next update! As for the "challenge" to determine the gender of a Yoshi, I am going to save that for next chapter. I realize that it will be a lot more funnier if they try to mess with Sirius.

Yes, the Kangaroo is vicious.

My boyfriend is also going out of country, so I'm going to take advantage of my alone time to make more wonderful stories for my readers!
