Song of the Pikmin
It had been about three hours since the Titans left the Subterranean Complex. The gang decided to take the day off to relax from the long battle and journey.
Beast Boy, who had nothing to do until nightfall, decided to explore around the base for anything that might be of some importance.
First, he went to Raven to see what she was doing. She was meditating as Beast Boy snuck up on her. "Dude! What are you doing?" Beast Boy said as he popped out of nowhere to spy on the gothic Titan. Raven was pretty mad now, but didn't show it since her powers might go berserk. She merely levitated a can of Ultra Bitter Spray and chucked at Beast Boy, turning him into a statue as she levitated to another location to meditate in the snowy area.
After Beast Boy thawed out, he went to see what Cyborg was up to. Back in the Tower, Cyborg was writing in his Live Journal account on how he was while downloading all the information on the enemies they encountered in their adventures. Beast Boy snuck up on him and surprised the half-metal teen. "Dude, what to play Pikmin 2 versus mode or something?" Cyborg, who had no time to play, told Beast Boy, "Sorry man. Too busy. See if Starfire has anytime to spare." Beast Boy then leaves the Tower to see if Star had anything interesting to do.
Starfire was playing with her Pikmin, Kenny. She was dressing him up as a doll and used him for a tea party. Now Beast Boy, being half animal and understood humming language, heard the Pikmin's cries. It was whining, "Help… Me… Someone." Beast Boy was only glad he wasn't a Pikmin. So now the green changeling left to see what Robin was doing.
Robin, who wanted to have some practice, spared with some of the Pikmin. He was currently fighting a purple Pikmin, who was about to butt slam on our hero. Robin moved out of the way, which left the Pikmin to impact to the ground, leaving a crater as it stood up again. He then took out some birdarangs and used them to trip the Pikmin, which front flipped and landed on the ground unharmed, despite its massive weight. Beast Boy interrupted and asked if he could spar with them. "Sorry Beast Boy, this is sorta more of a Leader to Pikmin kind of thing. Try Louie…"
Beast Boy searched everywhere for our blond assistant. He finally found him in the kitchen of the tower. He was cooking something, which BB could tell since smoke could be seen from the kitchen area. Beast Boy jumps in and interrupts Louie, as he was deep frying something. "Hey Louie! Need a hand cooking you're…" Before Beast Boy could continue his sentence, he saw what was Louie cooking. On the frying pan was the fillet of a Dwarf Red Bulborb they killed just today. Also, in the boiler, was a Water Dumple that was being cooked like Tuna. Finally, there was the corpse of a Wollypog in the oven that had Honeywisp Syrup on it. Louie turned to see Beast Boy as he tells him, "Oh hi BB! Just cooking our diner for today. Back in Hocotate, I ate bugs to satisfy my hunger. Want a first taste of my 'Armored Cannon Beetle Larvae Stew.' It's REAL Good!" Beast Boy only went to the bathroom and barfed all the tofu he ate for breakfast that morning. He then explained to Louie that he was a vegetarian. "Well why didn't you say so! I can make you some steamed Creeping Chrysanthemums with some mashed up Skitter Leafs." Beast Boy then ran back to the bathroom and barfed what little tofu was left in his stomach. He thought it might be a good idea to leave Louie alone and leave before he suggests cooking a Dweevil or something.
Finally, Beast Boy ran up to Olimar, who was making somekind of machine out of the treasures they found currently. Beast Boy was like, "Hey Olimar! What are you doing?" Olimar then explains how this machine will grow the Titans back to normal, but it needs more parts to complete. Beast Boy then leant on the machine, which pressed a button that made the machine blew up and all the treasures flew around the room. Olimar looked at BB with an angry face, which BB countered by smiling and running as fast as he could.
BB was now bored since there was no one to play with. Suddenly, BB notices the five Pikmin that stood in front of him, one of each race.
Beast Boy had nothing to do, so he took a leaf and a small piece of wood and put them together, making a harmonica. Beast Boy then starts to play random tunes, similar to the Ai no Uta song he heard on Pikmin 2.
Suddenly, the red Pikmin copied the rhythm to his song, then the blue, then the yellow, purple, and white. Soon, nineteen other Pikmin of each species came towards the chorus, making twenty of each species. They sat together and hummed the song that BB was playing on his harmonica. Soon all the Pikmin were singing the song rather than humming. The song echoed through the Valley of Repose, letting all the enemies hear the song of the Pikmin as they sung their song of triumph. Also, the gang who were too busy to pay any attention to BB also sung the song as they were doing their normal stuff. Raven stopped meditating to hear the glorious song of the Pikmin. Cyborg was recording and downloading it to listen on his Walkman later. Starfire was also singing the song with the Pikmin from a farther distance. Robin smiled as he heard the song while adjusting the notches on his birdarangs. Louie was humming the song as he was adding spices to the Breadbug he was about to pop in the microwave. Olimar was also smiling as he heard the song being played while he was fixing up the machine BB broke. The enemies, unlike everyone else, hissed at the song as they knew Pikmin only sing when a glorious leader rising to lead them to victory by instinct. It seemed the song lasted for hours, when in reality it was only minutes.
Finally, Beast Boy ended the song, which sent the Pikmin to separate into their own directions. BB smiled as he looked at the homemade harmonica he just used. The Pikmin still hummed the song when they separated throughout the base, only making the song weaker as they sent their different directions. Olimar then comes up to him and tells him, "That was great, what you did with the Pikmin. I didn't know they could sing." BB looked at Olimar in confusion. In the game, the Pikmin hummed this song tons of times. Why did they do before? He then realized that it was he who taught the Pikmin how to do it, sending an endless chain of confusion in BB's mind. He then faints because of all the stress…
