It was Christmas time once again in Toadtown and toads were busy enjoying the holiday joys. At Dixie's House in Toadtown Birdo and Toadette were helping her pack her suitcases.

"So how long should the trip take" asked Birdo?

"About 2 Weeks" said Dixie.

"Well I'll miss you" said Toadette about to cry.

"Don't worry I'll be back" said Dixie

Outside snowfalkes began to fall and they accumulated quickly it was soon the afternoon and the terraced houses were covered in about 2 inches of snow. Toad pulled up to Dixie's House quickly he had to get to the Train Station in Toadsburg.

"You and Birdo can come" said Toad to Toadette.

Toadette smiled and Birdo and Toadette boarded quickly as Toad loaded her suitcases Dixie looked around worried the snowplows had not cleared the streets and it kept snowing Toad looked worried as he turned into the Train Station in Toadsburg. The parking lot was icy as Toad parked he quickly got out the car and Toadette got close to him and whispered in his ear.

"Do you think her train is cancelled" asked Toadette?

Toad shrugged worried and took out the suitcases and put them on a trolley and the group went inside the station to wait with Birdo. Then the train arrived and Dixie got on awaved goodbye.

"I'll be back soon" said Dixie.

The train left the station with a snow plow. Toad and the group left soon it was night and it was still snowing. On the train Dixie was sleeping in the sleeper car when suddenly there was jerk and the train was stopping. Dixie heard screams and the passengers talk.

Dixie wondered why the train stopped moving. She jumped off her bed and ran out into the hallway. Suddenly the train leaned and Dixie ran down. She than saw the conductor worrying

"Sir what happened" asked Dixie?

"An avalanche came down it's blocked the track and has derailed the train" said the conductor.

Dixie looked out the window and saw the canyon below. Suddenly the lights starting flickering

"All passengers please unboard Train 18 due too hazard conditions please put on your coats it's freezing outside Thank You for Riding Star Express" said the speaker.

At Toadsburg Train Station Toad was at the station and saw a Train pull the express Toad gasped and saw the front damaged. Dixie got off sad with her suitcases.

"I'm sad Toad know I won't be able to visit Diddy and Donkey" said Dixie.

Toad just hugged her at her house Dixie unpacked and Toadette helped.

"Don't worry Dixie" said Toadette.

"Thanks" said Dixie.

At the Peaches and Toad Market Toad was getting some donuts and was talking to Toadley.

"I feel sad" said Toad.

"Why" asked Toadley?

"Dixie didn't get to visit DK Jungle" said Toad.

"I have an idea" said Toadley.

Early the next morning Toad went to Peach.

"Do you think you can give me Gilmore Lee's number" said Toad.

Peach handed him a slip of paper. Toad than dialed and Gilmore's phone rang.

"Hello Gilmore Helicopter Pad Gilmore speaking how may help you" said Gilmore.

"Do you think you can pick up something in DK Jungle" asked Toad?

"Sure what do you need" asked Gilmore?

At the Helicopter Pad Toad arrived and jumped on the helicopter with Gilmore.

"Well let's go" said Gilmore.

The helicopter flew off in the air about an hour later Toad could see the jungle and the helicopter landed. Toad ran to a hut and saw Donkey and Diddy.

"Hi Donkey Kong and Diddy" said Toad.

"Toad I haven't seen you buddy not since 2008 with the Grand Prix and all" said Donkey Kong.

"Well Dixie got stuck in Toadtown due to a snowstorm so I came to see if you could come to her" said Toad.

"How well we go all the Flights at Banana Airport are cancelled and the trains are too at DK Summit Station" said Diddy Kong.

"I came in a helicopter" said Toad.

"Can we go" said Diddy.

"Yes for Dixie" said Donkey Kong.

Soon the helicopter flew out from the jungle and the palms jerked around. In Toadtown Donkey Kong looked at the small town and Diddy was sleeping. It was already night in Toadtown like the time zones were different.

It was snowing and the Christmas tree was in the square lighted up.

"So this is your home Toad" said Donkey Kong.

"Yeah not so many places" said Toad.

"How is Toadette your sister" said Donkey Kong asking?

"Great" said Toad "She runs a café at the quay"

Soon the helicopter landed and Donkey Kong woke Diddy. Early the next morning was the day before Peach's Christmas adventure to Sarrasaland and Dixie was eating breakfast and was sad. She looked out at the street and it was snow covered.

Than there was knock on the door and Dixie opened it. It was Donkey and Diddy Kong Dixie gasped and began to cry as she hugged them. Donkey Kong smiled and so did Diddy Kong. At the castle Toad was polishing a table for the Christmas dinner.

Dixie came in with Diddy and Donkey and they were excited at the Helicopter Pad a few days later. Dixie was crying a bit Diddy and Donkey were leaving Toad than saw as the helicopter raised in the air and Toadette waved.

Dixie hugged Toad and she smiled
