Disclaimer: I do not own Nintendo or Pikmin and this story is only for entertainment purposes only.
As I had stated in my profile, I had talked about fixing up Pikmin 3 which originally was a chapter full of descriptions of new Pikmin. This is the result. This fan-fiction is a complete overhaul of the former fan-fiction.
I decided to write this fan-fiction because I like Pikmin a lot and I'm excited about August 4, 2013.
The story is set after the events of Pikmin 2 and perhaps Pikmin 3 (depends what its plot is). The prologue is rather small compared to how long the normal chapters will be but nonetheless I hope you enjoy it.
I named the fan-fiction Hostyle as opposed to something like Hostile because I was inspired by the name of a game called Crysis and wanted to do something similar, while keeping the single worded title appropriate to the story.
To begin each chapter, I have decided to include a quote at the start of every chapter.
"It's hard to tell who has your back, from who has it long enough just to stab you in it..."
Prologue
'It's about time,' the dark figure glanced impatiently at an emerging dark figure, who was slightly smaller than the first.
'Yes,' the small one talked through his helmet, 'it is. Sorry for the delay, I was kept up.'
'Soon the shadow of clouds shall surround the whole planet,' the big one explained, 'and soon it will spread, like a virus, until this planet is so foul and wretched, then I'll bring it back home and finally, finally revenge will be mine.'
'It's a brilliant plan isn't it?' The small one cackled.
'That's where you come in.' the big one instructed, 'Your job, is to set it up, and when it sets up, then it really begins.'
The small one jumped in excitement, he walked to the inactive machine and gave it a pat.
'Would you like the honours?' The big one asked, despite already knowing the answer.
'Why yes!' The small one bumped his head into a small button located on the machine.
To the small one's surprise, the machine whirred and flashing lights began to appear. The small one fell backwards as the machine grew more violent.
'But first,' the big one smirked, 'for my plan to be perfect, I need to get rid of you.'
'Huh?' The small one was interrupted as the machine's sounds had entered his mind and had shattered it.
The small figure that had once been someone distorted into a black creature as the glass of the figure's helmet shattered and the clothes that the figure had worn tore until a hideous black creature emerged.
'Good,' the big one nodded, 'you're name is One. Your job is to spread the shadows quickly so that when the clouds come, we can embrace the darkness.'
The creature made a croak-like sound and it howled as it sped off to do its job.
'By sunrise,' the big one stared at the skies, 'it shall begin, and there is nothing, absolutely nothing, he can do about it.'
Indeed there was nothing he could do about it, but from a little one's eyes, it would have to hurry home with most urgency.
I wonder what this little one could be and soon you will find out.
Please review this first chapter whether it is criticism or praise, I'm fine either way. If you really like it though, it wouldn't hurt pressing the Follow/Favourite button or recommending it.
Let me know if there are errors or mistakes so that I can fix them and make the reading experience more enjoyable for other readers.
Other than that, see you soon! :P
