Within a deep shroud of green of a dense forest, a chase was ensuing. A Hammer Bro and Goomba had successfully stolen a massive pile of banana's, several feet tall, and were riding off with them on a hover car they got from their boss. What they didn't count on was the animals they stole them from would be pursuing them so fiercely. Sure, they had set up troops to slow them down, but they quickly proved that they weren't a very effective blockade.

When the Goomba turned around and looked at the overpass they drove down from it saw one of their pursuers at the top, sending another Goomba flying over the edge with a mighty punch. A tall, bulky ape with a red tie branding his initials, Donkey Kong. He pounded his chest and let out a roar before looking down at them, eyes filled with rage and determination. In an act of desperation, the Goomba went to the back of the car and shot the two mounted cannons they had, launching three Bullet Bills at him. But that's when their second pursuer caught up, a much smaller monkey wearing a red cap and t-shirt, Diddy Kong. Getting a boost from his friend, he jumped up, pulled out his two Peanut Popguns and shot the Bullet Bills out of the sky as they exploded on the ground behind them.

Though the attack wasn't able to stop them, it did put some distance between them and the thieves, for when they looked over the overpass, they had driven out of sight.

But they weren't willing to give up so easily.

With quick work, they continued after them. Though the forest was deep, dense and dark, this was their terrain and they knew each part of the land front to back. But just as they assumed, the thieves had left a plethora of troops in their path. Goombas, Koopas, Paratroopas, Hammer Bros, Bullet Bills, even Giant Goombas. But though their numbers were vast, they were no match for this duo.

Eventually, they were able to break through all the troops and managed to get ahead of the vehicle. So they hid in the bushes, waiting for their arrival. The moment the vehicle appeared, Donkey Kong gave a mighty punch, knocking off the Hammer Bro and Goomba and destroying the car. They saw they were clearly outmatched and retreated into the forest. Donkey and Diddy Kong looked over the glorious pile of bananas, satisfaction filling them from getting them back, and the two pounded on their chest in celebration.

But the celebration was cut short when they heard loud thudding footsteps come up behind them. They turned around and saw an all too familiar foe.

Bowser.

He let out a loud roar, so powerful it felt like it shook the ground, "I was wondering what was taking them so long. Now I see why. But no matter, I have you both."

Diddy Kong stepped up, readying himself to face Bowser.

"So you want to fight, huh? Very well then," He reached behind him, "Try to fight THIS!" He pulled out the same gun Wario had used and began to charge it up.

Donkey Kong could see the were in trouble, and he didn't think he'd be able to save the both of them. One of them had to escape, so with no other choice, he made the ultimate sacrifice. He winded up a powerful punch, and when the gun fired, he sent Diddy Kong flying. Diddy was only able to get a half second glimpse of the fired beam striking Donkey Kong, reverting him to a trophy, before he flew out of sight.

Bowser saw he was less one trophied hero, "So you gave yourself up to save him? How noble," He walked to the trophied Donkey Kong and picked him up, "But nobility will only get you so far here. Things are just getting started."
