Doof: WAAAAH! *Tips backwards in his chair*

Ferb: He is all jumpy since last chapter. He wants to know what happened.

Doof: *from floor* I also want to know why you left us all hanging!

Lichylichy: If I put it all in one chapter, it would probably kill everyone trying to read it all. Anyway, we shouldn't leave people hanging any longer. Roll film!

"Is everyone okay?" I call. Of course everyone isn't okay! Olimar has oxygen poisoning, which I frankly do not know how to treat, and Conker, judging by the growing pool of red, was in worse condition.

"The chair broke my fall!" Smiles yelled.

"I'll get the Corpse Long Legs on its feet again." Kai hissed, while the wall became... the wall again. I immediately pulled Conker off the broken glass... and immediately wished I hadn't. His entire stomach was cut open, and guts immediately began spilling out. I gasp, and begin to cry as Smiles began treating Olimar's oxygen poisoning.

"We'll start with a new helmet... get some of that into his system..." I heard him mumble behind me. There was a bright white flash.

"What happened?" I asked and turned. Smiles was slackjawed, staring at... Conker? I looked back at the dead squirrel with the guts flowing from its chest, to the clearly alive creature standing so close.

"I still have two squirrel tails." Conker said happily. A long scythe came from behind Conker's back.

"C-Conker!" I yell, pointing behind him. He frowns, and turns. He steps out of the way, revealing a very short calaca, toting a scythe much too big for him.

"Oh. Greg. What are you doing here?" Conker asked.

"Hi." The calaca said in a high pitched voice, ignoring Conker. "I'm Greg. I heard that a miss Gloom was here and... I wanted to make sure." His sockets met mine. "Oh. Hello. I hear that Agnes has set up shop in Gloomsville. How is she doing? And tell her her old pal Greg says hi." With that he turned around, walked behind Conker, and disappeared. Without waitng for an answer to his question. And mumbled something about cats as he left.

"R-Ruby!" Kai cried, flowing through the wall. "Brace yourself!" A few seconds after he said this the Dolphin shook violently, and we all fell onto the wall again.

"What happened?" I asked.

"Something big! Big and rolls alot!" Kai yelled. The Dolphin shook again, and we began to roll. Smiles had continued to fix up Olimar as if it was solid ground.

"I'm going to see what the trouble is." I tell the rest of them and jump out. I began falling, and I screamed in hysterics.

"I've got you." Something grabbed under my arms. I gasp in surprise and look up. Conker's tail was spinning at an incredible rate, enabling him to slowly lift us back towards the Dolphin. I look past him. The Dolphin was perched precariously on the edge of a great cliff that I saw at the end of the giant basin. Conker gasped for air as he set me down on the ground. I glanced at the remains of the Corpse Long Legs, and onions half buried in the ground.

"What happened?" I wondered aloud. From behind a giant mound of earth came my answer. A giant ball of blue-grey rolled towards the Dolphin. Bent on knocking it off. As it was, it was about to fall off the edge, it was teetering dangerously. No way! I run out, towards the giant boulder like thing. "Stop!" I scream. To my surprise, the boulder stopped in its tracks. Many great claws came out of it, and it actually lifted itself off the ground on these claws. Four parts of the boulder rolled out, revealing four crawbster faces. The top two and the bottom two moved, and words began forming.

"We are Hunk of Crawbster. We have been sent here to decimate the heroes and retrieve you." A giant boulder of a creature talking was slightly creepy.

"I am not going with you!" I cry.

"We were told you'd be against the idea. So we shall take you by force." Several large red claws made up of red claws came out, reaching for me. A loud blast and a dent appeared in the claw.

"Get your grimy claws-" There was the sound similar to that of a cash register. "Off the girl." Conker walked up next to me, a shotgun in his hands.

"Where'd you get that?" I ask, slightly horrified.

"Greg did. As he left he stuck it in my pocket."

"You can't put a shotgun in your pocket." I gasp as he pockets the shotgun.

"I. Just. Did." He pulls it out again, just as Hunk o' Crawbster began to roll again. Conker ran in the opposite direction of the Dolphin, and the creature followed behind, slowly catching up. Finally, Conker stood with his back to a wall, no where to go. And the boulder-creature rolling closer. A loud bang echoed through the basin, and Conker was over. And then the Hunk o' Crawbster crashed into the wall and unfolded, revealing many multi-colored sacks.

Bang! Pop! Bang! Pop! Bang bang pop bang pop pop! Internal juice flew into the sky... and the creature hissed one last time before it stopped moving. A light about our size came out.

"That's my UV lamp!" Olimar cried.

"Olimar!" I turn to meet the space captain. He looked relatively unchanged, except for a bandaid on his helmet.

"I realized that the spare helmet was actually my broken one." Smiles said. "So I used some resources." Cli-Cli was carrying the boy on his back. "What happened?"

"Just a mutated creature." I reply.

"Another?" The boy groaned. He slowly got off of the spider like creature. The nearest Onion popped out of the ground, turning a pure white. Several white pikmin slid out, lead by a rather short bud pikmin. "Hi Mini." He softly pet her head as the other pikmin picked him up, he scooped up the small pikmin. "How are you?" She squeaked. "A nightmare? What was it about?" He turned to Cli-Cli. "Can you get the ship part please?" He listened intently as the pikmin made squeaking noises, and gestures. He nodded a few times, made a few comments, and soothed her when she began crying purple poison-tears.

"Hey Smiles." I talk to the boy.

"Mmm?" He asked, looking up momentarily from the pikmin.

"How can you speak with animals?" I ask.

"How can you speak to me?" He replied simply before returning to the pikmin, obviously not going to actually answer. "So, you ready to go?" Mini squealed happily, climbing onto his shoulder. Cli-Cli returned, easily scooping Smiles up. "Thank you." He told the bug, scratching it behind its antennae.

"Where to now, Einstein?" Conker asked the boy. Smiles pulled out a patched together mechanical device.

"Hey!" Olimar cried. "My Dolphin is not a used parts shop!"

"You want to get out of here? I made a hand-held ship part locator-inator."

"Inator?" Olimar asked. Smiles shrugged.

"It needed an inator suffix."
