Disclaimer: if I owned pikmin it would be a LOT different…but I don't.

Chapter 9: through blue eyes

Accessing mission data…

Switching views…

Point of view: Aqua

"Come on! Let me see!" I said

"Stop being so winey Aqua!" Blue said.

"I just want to see where we're going, it's not like I'm going to touch anything!" I said. I knew Blue didn't trust me, and I didn't blame her either. She had to deal with me a lot recently, since Grey thought I needed serious field training.

I wasn't exactly your average blue. I was curious, rebellious, and hyper. I belonged more with the yellows than anything, but I was a blue. Many pikmin say I was caused by a yellow pellet being brought to the wrong onion, and to be fair, they were probably right.

"I said no Aqua!" Blue said. "Now leave me alone!"

I tried to look out the window, and I saw the red onion going towards a watery area "the red onion landed in water!" I said "we need to help them!"

"No, we need to stay with the yellows, and you need to be quiet" Blue said

I glared at him, but didn't say anything. I saw a blinking light on the control panel "Blue, you're working the onion too hard!" I said

"I told you to be quiet!" Blue responded. Suddenly, the onion lurched downwards, and into a cave. Blue barely landed safely, landing in water. "Stay here and wait for us" Blue said, going outside

I sighed, hoping someone better would take over soon, and I waited just outside the onion. The day passed by, and the pikmin were nowhere to be seen. Suddenly, a loud roar echoed through the cave. I realized it was sunset, and quickly got into the onion, just as its auto pilot kicked in and it took off.

I took control, trying to steady it, but I had no idea what most of the buttons did. I hit one on accident, and the onion hit the ceiling of the cave, and lurched downwards. The fall caused the onion to burry itself, and caused me to be thrown into the seeder. I watched the onion dim as it turned off, and then I passed out.

Missing data, jumping forward…

I woke up and felt the soft soil pressed against me. It felt nice being in the ground, away from pikmin yelling at me. Without warning, I was plucked from the ground, but it wasn't a pikmin who plucked me.

There were 2 figures: one with a weird metal suit, and then the one who plucked me that looked human. The guy in a suit walked off somewhere, and the human helped me raise the pikmin population. I could hear the other pikmin talking, and through that, I found out that the spacesuit guy was Olimar, and the human was Alex.

I started feeling an attachment to Alex, even though I barely knew him. After a bit, we took back a strange object to the ship, then we met with the other pikmin…what happened was kind of hard to explain.

"Not everything blows up!" a red yelled at a bomb.

"Don't yell at them!" a yellow yelled back at the red.

"I wasn't asking your opinion!" the red yelled back

"Does it look like I care?" the yellow yelled back. I desperately wanted to stop them, but I also didn't want to be shocked or burned.

"You should! You're the one responsible for tem!" the red shoot back

"Maybe you should try taking care of them!" the yellow said "I bet you'd end up blowing someone up within minutes!"

"What's that supposed to mean?" the red said, his anger obvious

"It means you can't control anything!" the yellow shot back

"You want to go sunshine?" the red asked

"Bring it on Fire ball!" the yellow replied.

Before anyone could react, the two pikmin started fighting. Most of the pikmin started chanting. I saw Flame and Daisy arguing near the back of the crowd, and I couldn't find my voice.

A loud whistle rang out, calling all of us to Olimar…except the 2 fighting. Olimar whistled again, and again. Finally, Alex took off his helmet, and whistled loudly. That got the yellows attention, and the red kicked him off.

"Hey! I was distracted!" the yellow said

"Street rules!" the red said. What in the world was a street anyways?

The two captains each held a pikmin, but the pikmin didn't stop struggling.

"Let go of me!" the red said

"It wasn't my fault!" the yellow complained

"Both of you be quiet!" Alex said. Bothe pikmin stopped struggling and were silent. The captains put the pikmin down, but I could see the pikmin wanted to go at each other again.

"Don't move" Flame said to his red.

"Same goes for you" Daisy said to her yellow. Neither pikmin moved a muscle.

I could see Alex was still upset, but Olimar started first. "Why didn't you stop them?" he asked.

I was surprised Olimar blamed Alex…until I realized he didn't understand us. "Me?" Alex asked "but-"

He cut himself off for some reason. "Let's go back" Olimar said, controlled anger in his voice. We were dismissed to our onions, and the rocket took off, with the onions in close pursuit. I set the onion to follow the rocket.

I felt like Alex was special. He wasn't a pikmin, yet I felt like he was. I didn't want to be away from him, I had never felt that way about anyone. When I was around him, it was harder to be upset about anything. He was more soothing than the reds or yellows had ever been…it was weird.

Looking out the window, I could see the red and yellow onions hovering. No one in my onion had fought, so I was left to myself, but I knew Flame was yelling at one of his pikmin. And if I knew Daisy, she would be giving her pikmin a stern talk as well.

I yawned, and quickly fell asleep, my thoughts filled with Alex…

End of data stream…

Yay! Another chapter done! I've decided not to do Purple and White pikmin, due to the fact that it would be kind of hard to find a reason why they ended up the way they are. Remember: I love criticism, reviews encourage me, and I'm open to input. Bye for now!
