First chapter! :D I'm going to be typing a list at the end of every chapter about the Pikmin that were born so far. Please read and review!
The New (and Weird) Quest
Chapter 1: Day One- Crash Landing and Nearly Killing the Lonely Pikmin
"Hullo, I am—"
"Red 2!"
"…No. I am Red 1, the first red Pikmin ever to be plucked by Leader whose name I do not remember."
"We never knew Leader's name, stupid. We can't even understand what he says! It always sounds like he's groaning and moaning when he talks to himself."
"Okay, then. That was Red 2, who is nice…when he gets enough sleep."
"Yeah, if only you hadn't stepped on my leaf."
"But I had to pee really bad…!"
"Whatever."
"At least I'm nicer than you…"
"No you aren't."
"Yes I am!"
"No, you aren't!"
"Yes I am!" The two Red Pikmin continued to fight while three other red Pikmin were staring at the sky.
"Hey, Red 3."
"Yes, Red 5?"
"Do you see something up there?"
"Yeah…it sorta looks like a shooting star. Make a wish!"
"I don't think that's a shooting star."
"What makes you think that, Red 4?"
"One, it's morning. Two, a shooting star wouldn't have a trail of smoke blowing out behind it."
"No offense, but you always act like a nerd. Try to act normal."
"Where have you been all these years? Red 4 IS a nerd!"
"Oy!"
Inside the 'shooting star'…
"Steer left, Louie! Left! LEFT!"
"I'm trying, Olimar! Don't scream at me, it really doesn't help!"
"You two are idiots…"
"Shut up you piece of Pod trash."
"I'm sorry, I'm not made of trash. I'm made of SOLID GOLD YOU LITTLE—"
"TREE!" Olimar pointed toward the tall trunk approaching them rapidly.
"WHATDOIDOWHATDOIDOWHATDOIDO?"
"STEER LEFT!"
"STEERING LEFT…"
Bam.
"THAT WAS RIGHT DUMBASS!"
"I did it right?"
"NO NOT 'You steered it correctly' I MEAN YOU STEERED IT TO YOUR RIGHT AS IN THE DIRECTION "RIGHT"!"
"IT'S NOT MY FAULT THAT I HAVE BRAIN PROBLEMS!"
"I knew I shouldn't have let you press my Manual Steering Button…"
"GIMME THAT WHEEL!"
"NO!"
"YOU'RE GONNA GET US ALL KILLED IF YOU DON'T—"
"ALERT! ALERT! POD IS SPEAKING! WE'RE GONNA CRASH LAND IN THREE, TWO…"
On the ground below…
"YO PIKMIN YOU BETTER HIDE OR PRAY THAT THE SHOOTING STAR DOESN'T HIT YOU"
"For the last time, it's not a shooting—"
"ATTENTION! REDS 1-5 TAKE COVER!"
"Yes sir Red 1!" All the red Pikmin scampered behind a boulder. Red 3 tripped and fell at the very edge of the boulder. The 'shooting star' was getting closer (actually they realized that it wasn't a shooting star now) and it was about to impact the ground. Red 3 clawed furiously at the ground to try to heave himself to the area behind the boulder. But he wasn't fast enough. Dan dan dan dan!
KABOOM.
"NO! I DON'T WANNA DIE I DON'T DIE!" Red 3 was blown back by the collision between the 'shooting star' and the ground.
"RED 3! NOOOOOOOO!" The rest of the red Pikmin peeked out from behind the boulder. Two round things plopped onto the ground in front of a bigger gold thing. They started to babble in a strange language. Translation:
"Ow! Louie, get your butt outta my face!"
"Sorry." Suddenly, Olimar and Louie's antennae started ringing.
"Pod is speaking. We are back on the Pikmin planet and I see no Pikmin so get back in here and let me fly myself." Suddenly four red Pikmin appeared with one of them dragging an unconscious red Pikmin behind them.
"Oh look, there are Pikmin here. Joy…" muttered the Pod.
"Guys, it's Leader!"
"And Blue Leader!"
"Ya know, I'm starting to think we should call Blue Leader "Leader #2" from now on. Who's with me?" No one said anything.
"Be-beep-beep-beeeeeeeep!" whistled Olimar. Translation:
"Come here!" The red Pikmin obediently ran to his side, still dragging the unconscious Pikmin.
"Red 3, wake up!" Red 2 slapped Red 3 awake.
"What'd I miss?"
"Nothing, except for the return of Leader and Blue Leader."
"Louie, where'd you get that?"
"Oh, it's the long stick of meat from the last time we were here."
"YOU STOLE THE MEAT SATCHEL?"
"Yup." Olimar slapped Louie.
"THAT WAS SUPPOSED TO BE PART OF THE MONEY TO REPAY BOSS'S DEBT!"
"The debt was paid anyway." Olimar slapped Louie again. Then he turned to the five red Pikmin and realized that they were all staring at his ship.
"Hey Red 1, you're the oldest here so what the heck is that thing?"
"You've seen it before too! It's Leader and Blue Leader's spaceship."
"Well, we should show them the way to our Onion."
"Good idea! Uh, which way was our Onion again?"
"-.-"
"Louie, stop eating the Meat Satchel and let's find the Pikmin's Onion. Do you remember what that was?"
"Ummm…was it the thing where we kept those weird items?"
"No retard, that's the Treasure Haul which we're gonna use again because the President needs more money to take care of his family." Olimar observed his surroundings. It was sort of like Awakening Wood, except there were more trees. And on a low stump there was a purple flower.
"Oh good a Violet Candypop Bud. I'll get purple Pikmin after I get more red ones." All the Pikmin ran in the direction of their Onion with Olimar and Louie following close behind. Actually, Louie was far behind.
"H-hey…guys…wait…wait up! I can only run so slow…"
"Well, we're here, Leader!" The red Pikmin stopped in front of the red Onion. Olimar saw two pellets with a 5 on each of them and a couple of pellets with a 1 on each of them nearby, so he grabbed Red 1 and tossed it on one of the pellets with a five and it fell down. All of them surrounded the pellet and carried it back to the Onion.
"Man this thing is heavy…"
"Come on, Red 2. You need to build up some muscle."
"Shut up Red 4." The Onion sucked the five pellet in.
"Great. A big pellet to start off the day." It produced five seeds. Olimar and Louie plucked them from the ground, and as they did, the new Pikmin shouted out their numbers.
"Red 6!"
"Red 7!"
"Red 8!"
"Red 9!"
"Red 10!"
"Hey, look! Comrades!" The new Pikmin went to meet red Pikmin 1-5.
"Okay, now since we have fifteen Pikmin, maybe I should throw five into the Candypop thingy."
"We don't have fifteen Pikmin you idiot. We have ten Pikmin. And now for the other five pellet…" The Onion produced five more seeds.
"Red 11!"
"Reddy 12!"
"Red 13!"
"Red 14!"
"Reddy 15!"
"Now we have fifteen Pikmin. But I really think that we should wait until we get more Pikmin to get some purple Pikmin."
"Yes, captain…"
"What are those dudes talking about?"
"Those are our Leaders. We call the red one "Leader". We call the blue one "Blue Leader". They can't understand us and we can't understand them, but we can understand their whistles."
"They look fat. Especially Blue Leader."
"You think everybody looks fat, Red 6."
"Yeah, but I'm serious about Blue Leader." More seeds were produced by the pellets with ones on them.
"Luckily there were some one pellets nearby."
"Reddy 16!"
"Reddy 17!"
"Red 18!"
"Red 19!"
"Red 20!"
"Why are some of the Pikmin called "Reddy"?"
"That means they're girls." Two Dwarf Red Bulborbs waddled over to the group of Pikmin. Olimar swarmed at them and they quickly died, so he ordered the Pikmin to carry the carcasses back to the onion. Eight more seeds were planted and plucked.
"Red 21!"
"Red 22!"
"Reddy 23!"
"Red 24!"
"Reddy 25!"
"Reddy 26!"
"Red 27!"
"Red 28!" It was evening already, so Olimar decided to go back into the ship and start his mission tomorrow, or in a couple days when he gets more Pikmin.
"BEEEEEP!" whistled Olimar. That meant the Pikmin were dismissed.
"Already? But it's only…"
"Who cares? Let's just go back in the Onion!" All the red Pikmin climbed the Onion's legs and entered it.
Inside the red Onion…
Reddy 17 was in her bedroom, which was filled with ten red mattresses and had five desks with computers on them. All the other Pikmin were entering the center of the Onion, which was the living room. From her point of view, when Reddy 17 stood at the entrance to the living room, there were two long red tables running down the middle of the room. One was labeled "TABLE 1" and one was labeled "TABLE 2". A countertop was next to Table 2, supported by drawers that had kitchen utensils and tools. There was a section in the upper right-hand corner labeled "READING AREA" with three bookshelves and three beanbag chairs surrounding them. Another desk with a computer sat in the upper left-hand corner with a label that said "CPU". To Reddy 17's right there was a TV with three red sofas and a red chair in front of it, and there was a round wooden table between the left and right sofas. That section was labeled "NORMAL TV". To her left was another TV with a Wii. It was labeled "GAME TV". Next to the Game TV was a sink, next to the sink was a stove, and next to the stove was a refrigerator. There were many entrances to bedrooms along the walls (except for the area near the fridge.) Each one had a label at the door and at least ten mattresses and five computers in them. Reddy 17 was in "ROOM 9". Most Pikmin were at the TV, some were at the Game TV watching a couple of Pikmin playing the Wii, a few Pikmin were at the Reading Section reading some books and magazines, and two Pikmin were seated at the computer looking at some planet picture. Whew, that was a long (and extremely detailed) description of the living room…and the rest of the Onion. Reddy 17 went over to the Normal TV.
"What's on?"
"True Jackson VP."
"Oh good, some comedy."
"So, what should we make for dinner, Red 14?"
"Well, Reddy 12, we should make something special for the return of our leaders. What do you think, Red 5?"
"I agree. We should roast chicken."
"And make a salad. We need to stay healthy."
"Hm, we should also make spaghetti."
"With meatballs?"
"No, we're out of meatballs."
"French fries…"
"We should make that too."
"Oh, no I was daydreaming of French fries, but that's a good idea."
"Okay, the meal will take about two hours to make, so…what day is today?"
"Saturday."
"So dinnertime is at 6:00. It is…4:30 right now. We have one and a half hours to make a two hour meal, so move it pronto!" The three Pikmin quickly gathered all the ingredients.
