Dry Bowser and Toadette were running from the Empoeror Bulbob that they just escaped from after having combined their skills to get their ways out of the beast, with Petey Piranha relaxing on the grassy hill overlooking Onett as a brawl was occuring, with the duo spotting a bunch of Pikmin not wanting to partake in battle with their captains.
"We have to do something about that creature." Dry Bowser spoke as he was looking at the guts spilled onto his bones from being inside a stomach, with his disdain for them getting dirty being visible. "I don't want to be made into a snack again."
"Oh I agree!" Toadette spoke up as she pulled out her treasure tracker and replaced her soaked normal dress. "I already make messes as it is, but I don't want to be trapped in something like that!"
Dry Bowser wasn't even able to make a disgted comment as he noticed a Burrowing Snagret emerging from the ground and attacking the Smashers, with another popping up and plucking Toadette. Dry Bowser chucked his bones at the bird as it went back into the ground, with Toadette screaming in pain. Looking up to see a bunch of Pikmin willing to follow him, the skeletal reptile went down the hole to chase after the ground based bird, willing to get his best friend back.
"Is it just me, or are those fellas being involved in more of these stories?" Shulk asked while he was relaxing in his shorts, screaming as he got snatched by a different Burrowing Snagret as another broke apart his Monado sword.
