Chapter 13

Chapter 13: Where are the five Yoshi kids?

Mission: Answer this question.

Story so far: "Welcome to Lavalava island. It would be in your best interest to get used to the local flora. If you're lucky, you can get some coins by pressing A (it says X in the PS2 version of the game) in front of trumpet plants. Calvin, Hobbes, Susie, and Kolorado, advance to Yoshi's Village for some relaxation!" As soon as that is announced by the Yoshi, Hobbes runs away. "Wait up, Hobbes!" shout Susie and Kolorado, as Calvin tries to activate the trumpet plants.

Go left, defeat the forest fuzzy disturbing Kolorado, and go left again. As the Yoshi kindly states, you'll arrive at Yoshi's village. Go to the east side of the village, and talk to the youngsters, who call themselves the "Fearless Five". Apparently, they're planning a big prank soon...hmmm.... Continue to the right, into the jungle path, and once again, Kolorado needs your help. Defeat the Spear Guy bugging him, and continue to the right. You'll find the entrance to Mt. Lavalava, where the next star is being held, but unfortunately, it's unaccessible right now. Kolorado suggests returning to the village to search for clues. Apparently, the Fearless Five have gone missing. Could this be what they were planning? They mentioned going into the jungle, so that's where you should look for them. So exit north of Yoshi's Village and into the jungle.

Welcome to Jade Jungle. There are enemies here that look like bushes, so be careful. Move the bushes out of the way, and head into the screen on the right when you're ready. Stuck up in a tree is Sushie the Cheep-Cheep. Hit the tree with your hammer until she falls out. She's the Fearless Five's babysitter, and will join you in your quest to find them. With Sushie as your character, you'll be able to swim in the water from the docks. However, you can only get back to land on a dock. Jump in the water with Sushie and go to the island on the left. Here is the first yoshi kid. He's in a bush. Dock back onto the middle island and head north to the next area. Now get back in the water and go to the area on the left. Dock onto the island, and hit the stump with your hammer. A bridge will appear. Cross the bridge and you'll find the second Yoshi Kid. Head back to the area to the right. Go to the upper island, and get up on the ledge by way of the spinning flower (use the Z or X button). Get the Watt coin, and as you can see, there a pipe here, so go down it. Use Watt to light up the cave, and find yoshi kid #3. Exit the cave, and go to the area on the right. Here is a statue of a Raven, but you can't do anything with it yet, so don't visit it. Instead, get in the water, and head to the area to the south. You'll find another Yoshi Kid sleeping in a tree, so use your hammer to get him down. Go back to the area with the Raven Statue, and go to the screen on the right. The last Yoshi Kid is being harrassed by two Putrid Piranhas. Defeat them, and you'll have rescued all members of the Fearless Five. Now you should back to the village.

Playing secrets: When going back to Yoshi's Village after looking at the entrance to Mt. Lavalava, look behind the tree for a rare Jammin' Jelly.
