(Olimar's POV)

"Now, we're going out to get the main computer. With that, we can commune with you from in here, even when we're out here. Remember to feed and walk everybody."

"You remember the purple strategy."

"Gotcha."

"Also you're going to need a bunch of reds and blues. And 15 yellows." Smiles said.

"I got it."

"And-"

"Calm down Smiles. We'll do fine on our own." I tell him, pushing him back into the seat.

"Just one more thing. Be careful. We do have 23 days to do this in, after all." With that, he put a helmet on and opened the door to let the creatures in. Cli-Cli instantlt ran over to Smiles, embracing him with his antenna, in a sort of hug. Bulbert looked around with mild interest. He was getting pretty big, now almost the size of a dresser. Woggen had fully gained his front arms and was starting to lose his tail. Cli-Cli was relatively unchanged, maybe a little larger. We close the door to the scene, preparing for the day ahead.

"Alright. It says that there is a ship part in that direction, so grab twenty blues and check it out." I tell Ruby, who withdraws the pikmin and head out with 18 yellows, 25 purples, 37 reds, and I set out to get the Guard Satellite.


(Doof's POV)

"So, you are a mad scientist. I guess there isn't much to go off of." I say, trying to start up conversation.

"What are you implying?" Mr. Marbles (I think that's what his name was.)

"Implying? I'm implying nothing." I say, wondering why he was getting so mad.

"Oh yes you are! The mad scientists were the greatest! They died because of the increase in-" He's stopped from a whack on the back of the head from Misery's scythe.

"Do I really have to remind you?"

"Ah, yes yes. I am very sorry, lass." Mr. Membrane said, wiping his head with a pocket hankie.

"Hey! You two! Don't just stand there! Give me a hand with this!" Mr. Marigolds looked the entire device over amd let out a whistle.

"Why, this baby runs on perfect cold fusion. Fascinating. This thing can outlive me." I couldn't help it. I snickered loudly.

"That probably isn't very long." He gave me a glare that could wilt the grass. In fact, I think it did. Just a little.

"Well, my apoligies." He glared. The boy's platypus pulled on my pants leg. I reached down to pet him. The platypus grabbed my hand and pulled me into the house. To my surprise, the platypus stands on two feet.

"Wow. I didn't know Phineas had such a cool platypus." The platypus gave me a look, and then threw on a fedora. Oh my gosh! "*gasp* Perry the Platypus!" He face palms. He reaches into his fedora and pulls out a pen and a pad of paper.

Really?

"What? That's a great disguise." I defend myself.

Anyway, why are you poking fun at that guy?

"Poking fun? What does that mean."

Insulting.

"Woah woah woah! I did no such thing. I was just trying to start conversation." A/N: What was this for? I don't know. It doesn't have anything that really helps Smiles and Ruby. I just put it in. Thought it be a little bit o' comedy relief, or somethin'.


*Sang to Doofenshmirtz Evil Incorporated jingle* Distant Planet Enemy HQ

*Let's hear the plan.* Grand Emporer Bulblax snarled.

"Oh no, you can't handle the truth."

*WHAT? Damn it Akuma! We need information on all of this!* Raging stomped.

"Oh ho? I think you should take that up with the third Titan." Akuma smirked, and stepped aside. A huge gust of wind came into the mneeting room, as did a figure made completely of darkness. It glanced around with bright yellow eyes, and it opened its mouth and let out a shreik.

*What is this place?* The Third Titan snarled from Limbo.

"What? You don't know? That's why I installed that jingle! Uggh. That was a waste of twenty-three bucks. Anyway, Distant Planet Enemy HQ. Here is where the leaders of the planet get together to destroy their enemies. Right now is Olimar, as well as Ruby and Smiles."

*Ahh, yes. You have told me quite a bit about them. (sniffs loudly) What's that?* It snarled, pointing in the direction of the creature in the corner.

"Rrrattlesssnake Jake. I'm here to reap the souls of the aforementioned people." He tried to slither forward, but winced in pain. "Being hit by a spaceship is a lot less fun then I originally thought."

*Who are they?* It nodded its head at the four odd humanoids in another corner.

"Dimentio."

"Present." He replied.

"O'Chunks."

"Yessir?"

"Mimi."

"Yeps!"

"Nastasia."

"You are penciled in for a final battle in four days." Nastasia said, typing away at a desktop computer. Hell knows where she was getting the power from. It wasn't from the anode beetle generator, that's for sure.

"Four days. That short? Uggh. Well, how about you Dund? Did you discover anything on the Nova Blaster yet?" The Yenaldooshi lifted up the torch mask.

"Well, though Hocotatians are small, they sure know how to befuddle. This makes no sense. It's almost like it is supposed to run on the ship's energy source. But that would have to be huge like... I don't know, like a lightning strike a second power supply. That makes no sense."

"They're Hocotatians. They breathe toxins more potent then anything this planet has to offer. Well, keep working on it." Akuma said. "Grand Emporer Bulblax. Get your wife to work on overtime."

*W-what?* Bulblax asked.

"Their coming for you, remember? You are going to need protection. What better protection than a wall of empty-stomached creatures that won't stop until each and every one of them are dead?"

*I can't just tell my wife to give birth faster. Sh-she'd have my head!*

"She is a giant egg sac with a face. She can't even move. She couldn't bite a pikmin if it was in front of her face." Bulblax opened his mouth to say something, closed it, and stomped off. "We'll give them Hell and then some." Akuma smiled widely, blood dripping still from his last meal.


(Smiles' POV)

"Pull this into here. And tie the cables. A little bit of splicing." I cut the wires and tie the copper ends together. I pull the wires into the rediscovered Analog Computer and hook it up. "Alright. Just set up the wifi network... SEVEN BARS! Wow. Hocotate is good, if their Wifi is better than ours even from a far away planet. I feel so... outdated." I slap myself. "Focus! Alright, pull this into that... there. Now it should accept the live video feed." I then turn on the newly installed helmet camera and to my delight my smiling face appears on the computer screen. Good. It is functioning properly. I lean back in the swivel chair, hands behind my back, and ignring the pain in my side. Well... I could always have a talk with Addyson. I push off of the computer and over to my log.

Addyson? Are you there? I felt a little foolish writing to noone in paticular. To my relief, a scrap of paper floats down from the ceiling.

Yeah? What's up? Was what it read.

Well, I don't exactly take to bed very well.

What?

I'm bored.

Why didn't you say so? I sigh. There were draws backs with dating a girl who isn't as smart as you. Like the lack of scientific conversation. Ah well. It isn't like I'd want to talk about rocket science with her. If I wanted to do that I'd have went to Baljeet.

What's going on on your end?

You wouldn't believe me if I had told you. Heck, I can't believe it.

What? I don't understand.

I'm sending you a picture of it now. Another sheet of paper floats down from the ceiling and into my waiting palm. My eyes widen. It was like something from a horror film marrying a saturday morning cartoon. And the picture was its child. Freaky. Apparently, Addy had fed a camera photo into whatever machine allowed me to talk with her, and... Well... two-headed people, a cyclops, and a teary-eyed girl with a scythe over one shoulder? It wasn't exactly a happy picture.

"Hey! Where'd you get that?" I heard Ruby ask. Apparently they were back. She takes the photo from my hands. "What is this?"

"A picture from the other end. Apparently a bunch of horror movie nock-offs had infiltrated the Flynn-Fletcher backyard."

"Don't talk that way about my friends!" W-What? Friends? With those?

"I mean no disrespect, but... they don't seem human."

"You don't have to be human to be kind." Ruby said, pocketing the picture. She huffed and headed to the hammock Olimar had set up the other day.

"You want my bed?" Olimar asked.

"I'm good on the chair."

"Really?"

"Yeah. I'm quite comfortable."

"Well, we're heading into the atmosphere. There is no more ship parts here." He headed to the pilot area. I lay back and let sleep overcome me. A log? No thank you!


Day 7

The Forest Navel has been sweep cleaned before noon. That sure didn't take long. We will head back to the Impact Site tomorrow and get the one ship part that remains there. There has been a surprising lack of creatures. I wonder what is going on? Well, we'll figure out eventually. Off in the distance I see what appears to be a star. I smile up at my home planet, Hocotate. Maybe, quite soon I'll return. Just a few more days of ship part collecting. I have just realized. That is when we spit ways. Well, I assume that is when. Now that I think about it, there is no guarantee that they will make it home. They have families of their own. Is what I'm doing... kidnapping? I'll take it up with Smiles tomorrow. We will get off of this planet, and Smiles and Ruby will reeturn home, even if it takes the last of my breathe!


Dear Diary,

Well, it was a surprisingly boring day on the Pikmin Planet. Hey guys, I know you're reading this. I'm glad to know you're there. I saw the picture you sent to Smiles. I'll be back soon, promise.

Your Friend,

Ruby Gloom
