DAY 3, 12:00- BIG MAMA

Pod- You have recovered one fifth of the 10,000 Pokos needed! Great job! But you're not done yet, so get up. NOW.

Olimar and Louie stood back up. They were in front of the Hole Of Beasts. Olimar counted their army.

Olimar: It seems like we have 24 Purples and 60 reds, making a total of 84 Pikmin. I guess that is OK, but we are not trying our best. Now, let's squish that paper bag!

Olimar threw 20 purple Pikmin on the bag and it slowly got smaller and smaller, until it was gone. He looked at Louie, as he was not helping Olimar throw purples on the paper bag.

Louie: Sorry, Captain, too busy eating this burger. It's pretty god. I found it in the Hole Of Beasts. I shall call it... the Big Mac!

Olimar: That's already taken.

Louie: Oh. Too bad... Well, then I shall name it... the Pik Mac!

Olimar: Good for you... I guess. Well, changing argument, my treasure gauge is going out of control! Look up there. There is something there, but we cannot reach it, and our Pikmin can't, either. Yellow Pikmin are needed in these cases... Oh well. There is another Cloaking Burrow-Nit there... This time pound it WITH PURPLES, not with your belly.

Louie: Fine. I agree, as I am now eating my Pik Mac, and I don't want to ruin my appetite by body slamming that bug. Although I love bugs... I remember that time, where my uncle and I went to catch bugs...

Olimar ignored Louie as he talked to himself and grabbed a purple. He watched as the Cloaking Burrow-Nit slowly emerged and then he threw the purple on the ground. The Cloaking Burrow-Nit was paralyzed and Olimar easily killed it by swarming its soft face with red Pikmin. It died. Olimar ordered them to carry the creature back, and so they did. Louie was still talking to himself. TEARS were now slowly dripping out of his eyes. Olimar walked up to him.

Louie: And... and then, the big bug bit him on the leg! My poor uncle! I was so angry that I literally ate the bug! On the day of the funeral, I made my... dead... uncle a promise: I would not stop living until I had killed and ate every single bug on this universe.

Olimar: Louie, I'm sorry... I never knew that...

Louie: And I did not stop living yet... Well, I AM 160 years old, but-

Olimar: WHAT!

Louie: HAHAHA! You fell for it! My uncle is still alive, the bug was a butterfly! Haha-

Olimar walked away towards the onion (after punching Louie on the face) and pulled out the new Pikmin.

"Lafunduh II!"

"OK... II"

"Violet II!"

"Jennifer II!"

"Joseph II!"

"George II!"

"Stephanie II!"

"Jason II!"

When Olimar came back, Louie was still laughing (with a red cheek due to Olimar's punch).

Olimar: OK, Louie, let's go in that other crack right over there!

Louie: Sure, Captain!

And down they went, into the White Flower Garden (dang, I sounded like an old man).

THE THIRD CAVE- WHITE FLOWER GARDEN

"WaaaaAAAAaaaaaiaum!"

"SHUT UP, JOE- Ow."

Olimar whistled all the Pikmin to his side. He guided them to an opening, where he killed a couple of Sheargrubs. He walked to his left, where he saw an item. It must have been treasure. Olimar swarmed the Pikmin at it, and they lifted and started carrying it back.

"I must sleep... Too tired..."

"Wake up, James."

"Pancake... come to me..."

"Jesse, stop."

"What?"

"I told Jesse to stop."

"What?"

"I TOLD JESSE TO STOP."

"WHAT!"

Pod- I shall call this ugly thing... the Alien Billboard! It is worth... only 80 Pokos...

Louie and Olimar noticed that the treasure gauge went off, meaning that there were no more treasures in this sublevel. They looked for the crack leading to the next sublevel and found it after stopping at many dead ends.

"Let's-a go!"

"Shut up, Mario."

SUBLEVEL 2

Olimar and Louie looked around them. The place looked different, it was circular and there were no walls. Louie bent over the edge to see what was down there. There was no bottom.

"Hey, Evan, now is our chance!"

"Yeah, Nick, we can push him down the edge! On my three! One, two, wait! Darn, he moved..."

somewhere far, far away...

"#34, SIR! All the preparations are ready. Your Imperial Puffy Blowhog awaits you."

"What number is it?"

"Number 2, SIR!"

"Dismissed. Get back in your Unmarked Spectralid, #1286."

The (-----------) ran to his Blowhog. He was, along with every other (-----------) that existed, in a wide area full of Unmarked Spectralids, diverse types of blowhogs, and the almighty Golden Queen Honeywhisp, one of a kind. It was night, and it was cold. Very cold. There was the loud noise of the Blowhogs' breathing. Unmarked Spectralids were neatly organized in rows of 100, and most soldiers were already on them. As #34 climbed some stairs, he reached Puffy Blowhog 2. He showed his passport to a guard and walked on the Blowhog. The Blowhog's skin is made so that heat rises from it, so that no one would be cold. As he sat down, he put on his seat-belt, and watched the dark sky. Suddenly, he saw a Blowhog rise from the ground and fly high above the night sky. The Blowhog #34 sat on moved, too, and it quickly rose to the sky, right next to the other Puffy Blowhog. Behind them, all 200 Withering Blowhogs rose at the same time, and half of the Unmarked Spectralids flew in front of them, the (-----------) riding them, and the other half was in the back of them. Two Greater-Spotted Jellyfloats hovered next to the 200 Withering Blowhogs, making sure that everyone was here. Now, every single (-----------) was waiting for the emperor to rise. And when that happened, all 10,000 (-----------) flew away, to the east.

back to emergence cave

Olimar: OK, Louie, let's bring those Fiery Blowhogs down!

Louie: I got it all under control, Captain!

Louie dismissed all the Pikmin and grabbed the reds. He moved to the nearest of the two Fiery Blowhogs and while it was looking at another direction, he swarmed the red army at it. The Blowhog noticed and threw them away. 3 reds fell down and died. Olimar quickly whistle the reds to his side.

Olimar: LOUIE! Don't move! I don't want to see you with a Pikmin again. Now, watch and learn.

Louie: Telling me not to move... Bastard...

Olimar grabbed the purples and walked to the Blowhog. He waited for it to blow fire and then threw purples at it. The Blowhog didn't have enough time to throw them away, and it died.

Olimar: THIS is how you do it. There's another one.

Olimar repeated the process and killed the other Blowhog. Then, he looked around and saw two treasures. He threw Pikmin at both and after lifting it, they brought it back to the Pod.

Pod- Both worth 100... Petrified Heart and Drought Ender... This is getting boring...

"TIRED!"

"HUNGRY!"

"PISSED OFF!"

"Anyway, who just died?"

"Uhmm... It seems like William, Patrick, and Chris are absent, so... yeah, it must be them."

Louie: Can I at least go to the hole?

Olimar: NO.

SUBLEVEL 3

Olimar: Well, let's head down the path...

Louie: My butt hurts. Pod, can you make us land on something softer next time?

Pod- Just shut up, S.

The leaders, closely followed by their army, walked down a path and came to another clearing. Two white flowers were sitting there, waiting for the leaders to toss Pikmin in it.

Olimar: Ivory Candypop Buds! Never seen THESE before! Toss five REDS in each flower.

Louie wondered what would happen if he would jump in the flowers. He remembered what Olimar just said, 'Don't go there, girlfriend.'. But Louie HAD to know what would happen. He ran back and dashed at full speed and hopped into the flower. It closed on him and spit him back out, and Louie hit the ceiling and came back down, hitting the floor and causing a hole on the ground. Louie fell down and went in the next sublevel without Olimar, who ignored him. Olimar tossed five red Pikmin in each Bud and five white seeds were shot upward and into the ground. Olimar pulled each one.

"Robert!"

"Billy!"

"Leonard!"

"Christopher!"

"Jennifer II!"

"Matthew!"

"Jesse!"

"Max!"

"David!"

"STEVEN!"

Pod- Oh wow. R, new discovery. White Pikmin. These have red eyes, in case you're blind...

Olimar: It looks like I am standing right in front of the treasure, as my treasure gauge is going crazy. But it is nowhere to be seen... Maybe it's up there... No, it isn't. Hey, what are the whites doing?

The ten white Pikmin were digging up something from the ground.

"Hey, whities, WTF you doing?"

Pod- It looks like the whites' red eyes enable them to see what's underground! Not fantastic at all, I can do that, too. No wait, I have laser-vision, not X-ray...

"I bet the leaders are thinking that we are digging because we saw treasure down there!"

"Yeah, what idiots... We are just looking for a burger underground..."

"YEAH YOU'RE RIGHT"

Soon the whites uncovered a couple of burgers and a big, round item. Olimar swarmed the treasure (not the burgers) and the Pikmin placed it on the green light that the Pod generated, the Pod sucked it in and gave another of those ol' boring speeches.

Pod- OK, OK... I call this... the Superstick Textile... It is worth... ONLY 80 POKOS! WHAT IS IT WITH YOU TWO? MOVE IT, MOVE IT, NOW!

Louie: Hey, up there, is someone screaming?

Olimar: Let me just come down there...

SUBLEVEL 4

Louie: Look at all these pipes! And look at the purple air-thingy! I don't know what it is, so I sniffed some of it. I started coughing.

Olimar: I think that those pipes are releasing gas. Maybe purples can withstand it... Let's give it a try.

Olimar carefully aimed at one of the numerous gas piper in the area and flung a purple at it. The poor purple's pink flower turned the color of the gas, and it started running around, confused and all that stuff.

"AAAH! Get it off me! It's all over me! It's eating me! Ooh, I never wanted to die! I promise, I'll give you anything! My GameCube, my chocolates, my children! JUST PLEASE DON'T KILL ME! I just wanted to be loved (- from TimeSplitters 3: Future Perfect)! Mommy, please help! It's tearing me apart! I swear I won't throw stuff down the toilet EVER AGAIN! I won't lie! HELP!"

Olimar peacefully whistled to the mad purple and the flower got back.

"I'll give you my laptop! I'll give you my best friend!"

"Ed, idiot, it's over!"

"Wha- Ooh. Thanks god. That's right. NOBODY MESSES WITH THE ALMIGHTY ED!"

"Ed, so it was YOU who clogged the toilet... I had to spend over three hours fixing it, while everyone else was waiting in line behind me, trying to get in and doing what they wanted to do. God."

"And you would have given me away..."

Olimar: Then it must be the whites that can withstand and survive poisonous gas! Louie, throw five whites on the pipes!

Louie did as told and the whites destroyed them.

"Hey, whites, how did you do that?"

"Well, we just kept our mouths and noses shut and did not breathe. I bet the clueless leaders are thinking that we can survive even when breathing this stupid purple gas..."

Olimar and Louie made the whites disable all the gas pipes while the reds were sitting near the Pod. Then, they found an item. It was pretty big, and it was treasure.

"Hey, dude, look at that! It looks like a mushroom!"

"Right. I believe you."

"... Now it's a flower."

"Right. I believe you."

"NOW ITS ME"

"Right. I believe you."

"Billy, you're weird."

"Right. I believe you."

Olimar and Louie swarmed five whites at the mushroom and started carrying it back to the Pod. Then, Olimar found another treasure, and it was on a severed tree trunk, and it was close to the crack on the ground. It needed another Pikmin to lift so Olimar went back and grabbed five reds, and with the help of the whites, they carried it back under the green light.

Pod- I call this treasure... Well, it's worth only 30 Pokos, so, the Useless Garbage.

Olimar: I think that Toxic Toadstool would be nicer. Oh, and don't call me a-

Pod- The other one, called the Survival Ointment, is worth 90 Pokos.

Louie: Captain, our treasure gauges went off, we must be near treasure! Let's go!

Louie ran, tripped and fell in the crack. Olimar heard a loud 'thump' as Louie crashed into the ground. Olimar ignored all that and he just jumped in the hole, falling and landing on Louie.

LAST FLOOR!

Louie: LAST FLOOR! Yeah! There must be a boss! I can't wait to see the looks on its face when I am going to throw this rock at it! It'll turn red! HAHAHA-

Olimar slapped him and threw the rock upward, into the crack. It came back down and hit Louie on the head.

Louie: Captain, ever thought of joining the NSL?

Olimar: NSL?

Louie: National Shot-put League...

Olimar left all Pikmin and Louie behind and explored the area solo. He reached a large oval shaped arena. Olimar looked everywhere but could not see the boss. Maybe there was none. But when he took a step and heard a loud rumble underground, he knew what he was going to face. Big Mama.

Olimar quickly ran back to the Pod. He quickly told Louie what he was going to face and grabbed 20 reds.

Louie: Wait, what YOU'LL face? What about me?

Olimar: You caused too much trouble, you'll get us all killed. Stay here and watch after the whites and Purples.

Olimar ran back at the arena and the ground shook. A big, snake-like creature with a bird's head quickly emerged from the ground and looked at Olimar and his reds. It tried to grab some with its beak but Olimar moved the reds. The Burrowing Snarget went back into the ground. It moved a bit and re-emerged in front of the army. Olimar threw some Pikmin on its head and they started hitting it with their flowers. The Snarget flinched at the pain as blood flew away from its hurt head. It went back underground and the Pikmin were tossed away, and some were de-flowered and became back leaves. Some turned into buds.

meanwhile

Louie sat down and looked at the Pikmin, who were looking back at him with their big eyes. They were studying him. Louie looked to his right and saw the fight between the reds and the Burrowing Snarget. Louie thought of what kind of meal he could make out of the beast's snake-like torso. He could chop it down into some original, fun shapes and barbecue them along with some fine Hocotate onions. At the thought of that, he got hungry. He slowly stood up and looked around for another Pik Mac.

meanwhile

Olimar looked behind him and turned around. He moved the Pikmin away and dodged the creature's beak just in time. Olimar glanced at the snake-bird's red eye. Blood was rushing out of it. It dug back underground and moved behind Olimar. Olimar knew that that was going to happen and turned around. The ground shook and the Snarget's beak could be seen. Olimar waited a couple of seconds and understood that the Snarget had some trouble emerging. This was his chance. Olimar threw 15 Pikmin at the beak and the reds started smashing it. Half of the Burrowing Snarget's body emerged and it looked around to see what was happening. Olimar threw the remaining five red Pikmin at its head. The Snarget still lived and shook the Pikmin away, de-flowering all of them. Three were buds. It burrowed back into the ground and moved around. Olimar foreshadowed the Snarget to appear behind him, but he was wrong. The Snarget emerged right in front of him. Olimar looked defeated. This was it. It was going to eat him. The Snarget quickly lowered its head and opened its beak in front of Olimar, but what was quicker was the speed of the small object that struck the Burrowing Snarget's head. It howled and fell to the ground, defeated. Olimar opened his eyes. He saw the Snarget's body explode, leaving the small head behind. A strange, weird-shaped treasure was shot from its mouth. Olimar looked behind him. He saw Louie standing there, with a rock in his hand.

Louie: Told you I was going to throw a rock at the thing.

He grabbed the purples, whites and the other reds and brought them back to Olimar, who made them bring back the head and the treasure. Louie was now eating another burger, the Pik Mac.

Pod- Artifact worth a flippin' 100 Pokos, I call it the Five-Man Napsack. UPGRADE! Now you can press and hold Y after dismissing all your Pikmin to sit down and relax. You will be invulnerable to some attacks and now Pikmin and Dweevils will be able to carry you as if you were treasure. Which you are not, you guys are just trash.

Louie: How do I press Y? What's that mean?

Pod- It's for the dude who's playing the game, dumbass.

Olimar smashed open some eggs and flowered the whites and the reds in the fierce battle. Then, Louie walked to the geyser and went back to the surface. Olimar followed him and all the Pikmin were shot upward and out of the cave.

BACK AT AWAKENING WOOD

Olimar looked at his watch and checked the time. It was still mid-day. He was tired though, so he went back to the ship and went to sleep. Louie followed him and went back in the ship, too, after putting all the Pikmin back in the ship. The day was over.

INSIDE THE RED ONION!

Everyone was watching TV in the red Onion. Many Pikmin were sitting on a large sofa, some were standing up, and Joanna and Devon were watching it while cooking dinner. Some were drink a Coke, some were eating an appetizer, others were just chewing gum. Today, a strange sport game was on TV. It was made of two teams of Bulbmin, all 30 (15/15) on each side, holding a bat. A ball on fire was in the center of the field. You had to run to the center and grab the ball (like Dodgeball) and kick it (like Soccer) in a ring. You could move around while bouncing the ball on the ground (like B-Ball) and to pass it, you had to throw it in the air and hit it with the bat (like Baseball). The other team is trying to tackle you, and your team can defend you by smashing against the other players (like Football). If you hit a player of the enemy team, you get a red card and you get sent out for the rest of the match. You have to get 50 points and you win. Today, the top two teams, Red Poop and Dried Blood, were versing. Both teams were at 36 points. Mario and John were chatting on the sofa.

"John, I betcha Red Poop is gonna win!"

"How much, Mario?"

"About-a 15 American Dollars!"

"Oh no, unless it's bathrooms, I'm out."

Luis and Sabrina were also chatting.

"Who do you think is going to win, Sabrina?"

"Well, I think Dried Blood, because of that excellent Bulbmin, what was her name..."

"You mean Bulbmina IV?"

"No, the other one, Luis..."

"Oh, B. B. M.! Yeah. She's pretty good."

"Yes, her. Who do you think is gonna win?"

"Me? Dried Blood. There's no way Red Poop can win..."

Then, after about 30 more minutes (an average game lasts 4 hours) the game was over. Red Poop won 50-48. Many reds were sad that their favorite team lost, and others were happy. Now it was dinner time, and everyone sat around the table to chat while they were waiting for dinner. In a corner, Joe, Bob, Mario and Luigi were chatting. They call themselves the 'Super Bros.'.

"Hey, Luigi, I heard you won a bet a minute ago. True?"

"Yeah, Bob, I won-a 3 Super Mario Bros GameBoy Advance games-a from-a Mary."

"Hey dude, I have, like, a PikCube in my room, it's upstairs."

"Good-a, Joe, what-a games do you have?"

"I have like, totally awesome games! Kirby AirRide, Paper Mario: The Thousand Year Door, Mario Power Tennis, Metroid Prime: Echoes, Donkey Kong Jungle beat WITH THE TOTALLY COOL BONGAS, Legend Of Zelda: Ocarina Of Time, Sonic Heroes, Super Smash Brothers Melee, TimeSplitters 2, and-"

"No TimeSplitters 3: Future-a Perfect?"

"Nope, that stuff stinks. That's it, maybe I have more, I forgot..."

"I wanna sleep over at your-a room!"

"Ask James and Luis, they are our room-mates."

"DINNER IS READY!"

Devon and Joanna came walking in the room holding many enormous plates.

"OK, everyone, settle down. Today we have a lot to eat! A flattened Cloaking Burrow-Nit pizza, two fried Dwarf Red Bulborbs and a roasted Red Bulborb. There is a boiled Creeping Chrysanthemum's head for you vegetarians out there! EAT UP!"

After everyone ate all their food, they went in their rooms. Mario and Luigi went upstairs with Bob and Joe and into their rooms, where Luis and James were playing PikCube.

"Hey, I'll take a number six with a large sprite!"

"Shut up."

"Hey, what are you guys doing here?"

"I thought they could sleep over, so... can you guys sleep in their room?"

"Who's their room-mates?"

"Their-a Derek and-a Anthony!"

"THE MEAN DUDE AND THE WIMP? I'll regret it... but... OK."

They walked out of the room and into Mario and Luigi's room. The moment they were out, Luigi, Mario, Joe, and Bob sat down and turned off the PikCube, inserted SSBM (Super Smash Bros Melee) and started playing. They played for about 3 hours, and Joe ALWAYS won as Mr. Game and Watch. Then they went to sleep.
