Many famous video game characters exist as dolls in the realm of the Toy Kingdom. When the clock strikes a certain time, these dolls come to life, similar to their appearance in the opening cinematic. | |||
[[Mario]] is the first to awaken, who jumps to life with a "Wahoo!" Following him are [[Pikachu]] and [[Kirby]]. Finally, [[Donkey Kong]] opens his eyes, but starts clapping like a {{s|wikipedia|Cymbal-banging monkey toy}}. Mario offers Donkey Kong some bananas to snap him out of it. Donkey Kong responds by closing his eyes and opening his mouth wide, waiting to be fed. However, Kirby inhales all the bananas before Donkey Kong can have any. | |||

He then looks over at Pikachu, who is prominently yellow, and mistakes it for a bunch of bananas. Donkey Kong starts chasing Pikachu around, which causes Kirby to step in by painting himself to look like a [[Poké ball]]. Mario, unsure about what will happen next throws Kirby at Donkey Kong. After being thrown,Kirby spits out [[Yoshi]], who starts throwing eggs to stop all the commotion, but Kirby steps in and decides to inhale the eggs as well. Everyone then yells at Kirby for being a glutton. | ||

Mario, Donkey Kong, and Kirby continue to bicker, blaming each other for everything that's going on, and so Link finally decides to take out his ocarina and start playing. The soothing melody gets Mario, Donkey Kong, and Yoshi to finally calm down and start to wonder what they were fighting about in the first place...until Kirby walks off, grabs a harmonica, and decides to join in! The Mario characters start fighting Kirby again as Link wonders if there's nothing he can do to get them to make up. | ||
The next day, Donkey Kong wakes up with a note stuck in his mouth! Mario, Pikachu, and Kirby gather around to read what it says: "We've taken Yoshi. If you want him back, come to Hyrule Castle. Signed, Phantom X." Pikachu suggests - by saying "Pika Pika," of course - that they all work together to rescue Yoshi. Mario, Donkey Kong, and Kirby agree. | The next day, Donkey Kong wakes up with a note stuck in his mouth! Mario, Pikachu, and Kirby gather around to read what it says: "We've taken Yoshi.
