Chapter Two:
The Race Begins
A race?! Well, if you guys will no longer try to kill us, it's a deal. "There are a LOT of rules and regulations to progress through this race." said a Bulbear in the front. "First off, you MUST NOT use any reactors or speed boosters on your vehicle. Then, you can't bump or destroy anyone else's ship. You can launch non-lethal projectiles like nets, smoke-bombs, or even Pikmin!!!" "Interesting!" replied Olimar. And the Bulbear continued on… not too far " Let the race begin in a half-hour. You can modify your ship within that time, and there will be some checkpoints. Odd numbered contestants will stop at even numbered checkpoints for a day. The opposite consists for the even numbered contestants." The Bulbear now turned it over to Ms. Bulbmin for number assignments.
"OK" said Ms. Bulbmin "Bob Bulborb, you are #1. Kyle Bulborb, you are #2. Dwarf, you are #3. Captain Olimar, you and your family are all #4. Old Papa Bulbear, you are #5. And Beck the Blowhog, you are #6." All contestants ran to the supply garage, where they tricked out their ships without No2 or any boost propellant. Twenty-eight minutes later, the ships were all revving on the starting line. Cody the Blowhog is holding the green flag, ready to start the race to their new planet. Five… Four… Three… Two… One… And Olimar hit the ignition and he shot off of the line like a speeding vandal, leaving the rest a few yards in his wake. Soon, Beck the Blowhog made his first move, he launched a paralysis missle at Bob the Bulborb, leaving his ship paralyzed. With Olimar and Beck in the lead, Olimar shot out the old "super-sticky net" leaving Beck just three-four miles behind him! Now the first checkpoint is just three more light-years away…
