Chapter 3
"All the Small Things"
{Peach's Journey}
Peach finally lands and finds herself standing on a giant leaf. She scans the area for any signs of life and sighs to herself, when it seems she's alone. Suddenly Olimar drops down on a chain of Pikmin, startling the Princess.
"Olimar is that you?" Peach asked.
"Yep." Olimar smiled and Peach chuckled.
"What's so funny?" the space captain asked confused.
"Nothing, I'm just happy you're here. I was afraid I was alone." Peach smiled.
"How did you end up on the Distant Planet?" Olimar asked.
"Well Mario and I were………….." Peach stopped as the duo was suddenly surrounded by a mass group of Primids.
"Ready to fight?" Peach asked the dwarf.
"As ready, as I'll ever be." Olimar said and the two rushed into battle.
They both took down the Primids with ease and after the battle was won, Olimar led Peach to the lake to get a drink.
"This is very kind of you Olimar," the princess smiled.
"Thank you." Olimar said, blushing.
"We'll make our way to my ship and you can explain your story there, besides it's almost nightfall." Olimar said.
"What happens at night?" Peach asked, suddenly alarmed.
"The Bulborbs come out in packs and attack, so it's better to be indoors. Come along, there's my ship up ahead." Olimar said and led Peach inside.
Peach had to duck to enter through the door way, but inside it was very roomy. There was cot against one side of the rocket and various little beds for the Pikmin. Against another wall was a desk and detailed plans for handling the various wildlife present in the area.
"You can sleep in my cot, I'm sorry it's not the usual queen sized bed you're used to but it's all I have." Olimar said, apologetically.
"Olimar it's fine, I'm just happy with your hospitality." Peach smiled.
Getting to sleep that night was hard for Peach. The bed was a little small, not to mention the bathroom but Olimar did his best to make the area decent so she couldn't hold anything against him. She woke the next morning, blinded by the sun shining in the large circular window at the top of the rocket. She ventured outside, to find Olimar cooking breakfast for her and she smiled. After breakfast the two of them headed out down a dirt path.
"So how well did your team do in the Doubles Tournament?" Peach asked Olimar as they walked.
"Game and Watch and I got into the Quarter Finals, which I'm pretty proud of. We were destroyed by the Kongs." Olimar chuckled.
"Well then Mario and I took them out, so I guess we got revenge for you." Peach chuckled back.
"Where is Game and Watch I haven't seen him in days." Peach asked Olimar.
"He went back to Flat Zone for a while. He told Master Hand he had to take care of some things at home. Plus the next tournament wasn't set to start for another month anyhow." Olimar said.
"So, how goes the Mushroom Kingdom?" he asked.
"Boring, Bowser's been so preoccupied with the tournaments being at home is just boring. Daisy and Waluigi decided to take a road trip, so I haven't heard from her in a while and if Toadsworth puts any more decrees in my face, I may explode. Rosalina was supposed to drop in for don't know how I'd get home in time." Peach sighed.
Suddenly a giant ship flew overhead and caused the two to cringe. They notice a smaller ship emerged from it and crashed to the ground below.
"We better go check it out." Peach said.
"Right." Olimar agreed.
~There's chapter 3. So who was in the ship and who crashed? Cliffhanger!
