What’s this? Pictures of Cranky and King K. Rool, together? Laughing? Hugging? Donkey Kong and Diddy are a little confused after finding theses “happy moments” from Cranky's youth. Seems he and King K. Rool were the best of friends. Pulling pranks and running amok on the island. According to Cranky’s story that all came to an end when King K. Rool cheated to win a contest. They’ve been sworn enemies since. Well…you know Donkey Kong and Diddy; they just can let an opportunity to be do-gooders pass them by. They’re going to get these two “best buddies” together again if it is the last thing that they do. And it just very well may be.
