A プレビュー of my upcoming fanfic.

Night fell over Mario Stadium.
And a frustrated Yoshi slumped himself on one of benches によって the practice courts. He was all alone, desperate to find a partner so he can compete the doubles tournament. He looked down on his shoes and thought to himself about the dire situation he was in, 'If I can't find myself a partner, I'll have to play singles. I know don't want play alone, I want to play with somebody on my side. But who?'

Meanwhile, Birdo had just entered the practice courts. She too, was struggling to find a doubles partner after デイジー ditched her in favour of Peach. Spending all afternoon finding a テニス partner of her own, having absolutely no luck.
She noticed a green figure (Yoshi) sitting on one of the benches によって the courts, feeling rather sad. 'Is that a Yoshi, または the Yoshi I keep hearing about?' Birdo thought, 'Who am I kidding. If ask him to be my partner, he'll just reject me like everyone else.' To keep her mind off finding a テニス partner at bay, Birdo decided to get some テニス practice.
At the same time, Yoshi thought it might be best to get some テニス practice himself should the singles tournament be an inevitable option for him.
As both dinos made their way to the rackets bin to get a racket, they unknowingly felt each other's hand trying to pick up the exact same racket.
They both blushed embarrassingly when they looked up and saw the face of one another. Birdo was looking away from Yoshi shyly. "I'm sorry. I shouldn't of done that." She said, "Don't be. あなた look cute によって the way." Yoshi replied making Birdo blush even darker. "Thank you! I'm Birdo. And I really like your nose." She said. Flattered によって Birdo's compliment, Yoshi responded, "Thanks, I'm Yoshi. Say, how about we become partners for the doubles tournament?" He asked, knowing this was his last chance to find one.
Birdo would never thought someone would ask to be her テニス partner. Especially when Birdo herself had been asking the same 質問 to almost everyone she saw. So Birdo replied, "Yes Yoshi! I will! How did あなた know I was going to ask the same question?" Yoshi was a little confused によって her question. But he answered in full, "I've been asking all my フレンズ to pair up with me in the tournament and sadly, they all turned it down." Making Yoshi say the last sentence made him feel sad and hung his head in shame with a sigh.
But Birdo placed her hand on his shoulder and 発言しました to Yoshi, "That's what happened to me too. It made feel very upset, especially when they ran away from me because they think I'm ugly." Birdo then started to cry, just によって saying ugly was enough to make her feel upset.
But, Yoshi went up to Birdo, gave her a hug and whispered, "You don't need to listen to people like that. あなた are beautiful no matter who または what あなた are. How about あなた and I play a round of テニス together?"
Yoshi went over to the racket bin and pulled out two rackets. He then offered her one of the rackets while waiting for her response. "Yes Yoshi! I would 愛 to see how あなた play." Birdo answered as she held the racket that Yoshi offered in her grasp.
Both dinos then went to their respective sides of the テニス court. Yoshi served the ball first, Birdo returned the ball easily and soon the two dinos began rallying the ball towards one another.

She played remarkably well, hitting the ball with such grace and elegance. She was also fast and agile, though not as fast and agile as Yoshi himself.
But after a long tense rally, Birdo slammed the ball hard. Bouncing within the confinements of the court and went past Yoshi as he dived for it. At that point, Birdo was jumping up and down with glee. But Yoshi laughed it off and 発言しました to her, "You're good Birdo. Your turn to serve now." He passed another テニス ball to Birdo. She served the ball, only for Yoshi to return the ball easily.
Another long rally ensued but in the end, Yoshi could not answer to one of Birdo's fast shots. Clearly, she was the better テニス player than Yoshi.
