Pikmin 3

My eyes were red. Blood shot red. I hadn't slept for days. And that damn horn. It had been blaring for days. I re-read the letter that I was holding in my hand.

Olimar, it is our regret that you will have to leave your house. Due to the war, we cannot risk life's being lost, as your area will be a target for laser runs (The Hocotatian military base near you is important, so it will most likely be a target for attacks). We hope that you will comply with us, and move you and your family to a safer location.

Sincerely, Department of Safety President, Lar.

I thought for a while, gears turning in my head. Where was I going to go? All the money I had was gone. I was close to bankruptcy. I could not afford a new house.

I looked outside a window, looking at the S.S Dolphin. I remembered the time I brought back the S.S. Dolphin. I had to pay more money than it was worth to build. At that time, I was rich, I could afford everything my kids, wife, and I wanted.

I was still thinking of other options, other than selling my ship. Then I thought of what made me rich in the first place.

It was the Pikmin.

I crash-landed on their planet, which I have named the Distant Planet. My ship, the S.S Dolphin was destroyed, and the parts were scattered around the region. However, with the help of the Red, Blue, and Yellow Pikmin, I blasted off of the Distant Planet.

When I came back to my home planet Hocotate, I found out my employer – Hocotate Fright – was under bankruptcy. While I was away on vacation, my employer got a new employee, named Louie. They sent him on his first errand - to deliver some Golden pik-pik carrots to a prominent person.

However, on the way, a space bunny had attacked him, eating up all the carrots. The president had to take out a big loan. They had to sell all of the company's assets, and my ship was one of them. When they took away my ship, I was shocked.

I dropped a souvenir I had gotten for my son. The Company's Ship took the souvenir into its radar beam, and started calculating its worth. It was worth 100 pokos.

That was a whole years worth of pay. The president sent Louie and I off to the Pikmin planet. We repaid the debt and got home. But Louie was missing, so the president and I went back to the Pikmin planet, to find more treasures and Louie. We found Louie, and had a total amount of 30000 pokos accumulated.

Later on, we found out Louie ate all the carrots, but the president was too busy in his money.

This whole time, the Pikmin had helped me. They help repair my ship, get my company out of dept, and they saved my life many time. And what did I do for them? I made them suffer. Moreover, they never complained. They followed me, worked for me, and died for me.

I do not think I ever have done anything for the Pikmin.

Grah! I should stop thinking these kinds of things!

… Wait! … I have a brilliant idea! Why don't my son, the pets, and I go and live on the Distant planet until the war is over?

Besides, my son has always wanted to go to the Distant planet.
