Chapter 1. Befriending Gnu.

STORY MODE MAP SELECTION. IT'S A TOWN. THE ONLY AVAILABLE GAME IS A SOCCER GAME.

INT. SOCCER FIELD. DAY.

Tux approaches strangers. Those are different characters from the game. One of them is Gnu.

TUX

Hey! Sorry... I'm new here. Do you know by any chance where I can find a racetrack to practice?

GNU

You are a racer?

TUX

Ah... Yes.

GNU

A good one?

TUX

I guess...

GNU

Hm...

Gnu looks at the other players.

GNU

What do you think?

The other players mumble to themselves.

GNU

Okay. What's your name?

TUX

I'm Tux.

GNU

I'm Gnu. See, ah.. we have one person missing for the soccer game. We play it with karts. Do you want to join in?

GAME OF SOCCER. GNU AND TUX ARE ON THE SAME TEAM.

OUT. STREET. BESIDE SOCCER FIELD. DAY.

Tux and Gnu come out of the soccer field together.

GNU

You wanted a racetrack? We have more than one.

TUX

Really?

GNU

Yep. There is good one.

Gnu points on the next opened challenge.

TUX

I already like this place a lot better than home.

GNU

Enjoy yourself.

A NUMBER OF RACES ARE OPEN. AND YOU CAN COMPLETE THEM. NO STORY HAPPENS FOR SOME TIME.
