Olimar's POV

I woke up feeling groggy and hazy… I didn't know what had hit me, whatever it was it hit me hard. I was aching all over and all of the Pikmin I had were gone… My first attempt to stand didn't work out, I couldn't even feel my legs. As my vision cleared, I began to notice some glittering gold figure standing over me… I realized then, that this was the gold thing I saw when we landed here. It was very worried about me, kind of like a mother hen.

I tried to find my communicator but it was nowhere to be found. Louie was right to feel afraid to come up here. I shouldn't have yelled at him… I hope he's all right wherever he is… My mind suddenly shocked, Louie! I have to find Louie! I stood up and left, thinking that this gold life-form was just going to let me go… that wasn't going to happen… It flood its way in front of me and blocked the exit. I tried to walk past it but instead it tackled me and…

I blacked out…

Charlie's POV

The next morning we loaded out ourselves and the Pikmin and took off for the battle site. Hopefully we managed to get some damage on the monster that didn't heal overnight, otherwise we'll be repeating this madness all over again.

Luckily we were making better time than we were yesterday. Most likely because we are now slightly familiar with the path.

When we finally reached the battlefield the creature was already waiting for us. Much to our surprise, once it saw us it did its little digging around underground dance.

"Now! Let's us commence Operation: Defeat Giant Worm Monster!"

"Let's go!" Alph replied.

Once the creature stuck its head out, we made a mad dash and pounced on it like a whack-a-mole. Seconds later it flew outta the ground like it did yesterday. I hurriedly used my whistle to gather my scattered team and we attacked viciously. It flung itself into the air and slammed into the ground sending sand particles flying.

It's belly inflated and the bulge traveled up its body until a giant green thing upchucked out of its mouth and broke into pieces. Next came a giant machine that looked like some form of computer. Then the beast fell still and never took another breath.

"Victory!" I celebrated.

"We did it!" Alph said right after me.

Brittany was fixated on the giant green thing with red insides, "Whoooaa! Hey guys come here! Come check it this fruit it's so amazing!"

Me and Alph saw it for ourselves. She was right! This fruit is colossal!

"Even divided up it's so big!" Alph exclaimed.

I commanded the Pikmin to pick up the pieces, "Well come on let's gather it up!" Alph did have a point, the fruit was all over the place! Big pieces, medium pieces, small pieces, tiny pieces. Some took more or less Pikmin to carry. No matter, we made sure we got aaaaalllllll of it. Also we were sure not to leave the signal-emitting machine behind. So, we headed back to the Drake.

"Congratulations crew! We've succeeded!"

Author's note: Yeah... this is all I can manage right now... I wanted to get past this battle and I'm just not feeling too well right now :/ Hopefully I'll get better...

As always, stay flying.
