The 2 best Of PPR's battles


Smoke and Mirrors and Emergence's Rebellion vs. Planet Pikmin's Rage and Bladez and Bowz, Raid #1

It was a busy day. Flare was running around the base, conducting drills and managing projects. The cave was quiet, as usual. The only sound came from the clank of machinery and the occasional flame guyser errupting.

The quiet was broken by a sentry yelling. "Hey, we got company."
Flare peered over the wall. Several hundrerd troops guarded the entrance, seemingly aware they were being watched, but not reacting. "Fools. Send out the reds. Everyone else, back 'em up. You, Snargling. Get this message to the Bladez and Bowz."
With their commands, the troops moved out, the subterrainian messanger disappearing into the ground.

As the reds marched out twards the unmoving troops, they were suddenly met by a swarm of of pikmin, bulborbs, and goolixes. The rest of Planet Pikmin's troops sprang into action, and a massive battle ensued. The enemy pikmin were falling rapidly to blowhog cavalry, but the Pikmin Slurper was doing the same. A group of segmented crawbsterlings ganged up on a Pikmin Pulverizer, but scattered quickly as they were met by several Kinetic Orbs and Boulders. The Bomb Rock Cannon shot down an Imporobable Jet, whick colided with the PPR's large wall. The battle raged on, both sides taking casualties. Emergence's Rebellion's pikmin were not fairing well against the barrage of DCBL boulders, and Puffy Blowhog breath scattered the troops thin.

Meanwhile, a group of InvisoPikmin had managed to slip through the chaos, dragging their precious cargo, the Improbability Drive. They set it down on the edge of the Bitter Swamp, and turned it on. Suddenly, 300 of PPR's White Pikmin were transformed into little piggies. These, needless to say, were near-instantaneously slaughtered. The invisible warriors chuckled, and moved to their next objective: infiltration. Using the hole in the wall blasted by the colliding jet, they entered the base, where Decorated Cannon Beetles were raining hell on their troops. Using their blade-like hands, they quickly ripped apart several of the Cannon Beetles. Their cover, however, was blown, and they were exposed after attacking. Sensing life, a Snagret shot out of the ground, staring angrily at the trembling pikmin. I need not go further.

The Dirigibugs, seeing the Snagret lay waste to their only hope of a sucessful raid, alerted their troops to retreat. Just as this was yelled, the PPR's troops fell back, and an angry Empress Bulbax rolled through the sublevel, crushing the troops that didn't make it up the ramp.

The attacking troops, dwindled, injured, and demoralized , fled up the ramps as fast as their broken bodies could carry them. However, as they reached the exit, they came face-to-face with the Bladez and Bowz. Just what the army needed- more to fight! They quickly tried to flank, avoiding combat and trying to get away. However, the Groinks barred the way. Lucky for the escaping troops, they were given a ration of Space Noodles. They quickly gobbled them down and flew over their attackers' heads.

Planet Pikmin’s Rage vs. Smoke and Mirrors Finale

It was a fairly quiet day at the Smoke and Mirror’s base. They had taken some large casualties in their most recent raid, and the last thing they needed was an attack on them. They weren’t on the greatest terms with their allies right now, and they were in the midst of war. A sentry stationed on the top of the wall heard something very faint in the distance.

“OW! Urrrgh…”
“What the!? What is this thing?”
“Some kind of barri-OW!”
“Bring in the pulverizer!”

The sentry guessed it was some troops running into the crystal window. However, he hadn’t much time to alert his General before several Kinetic Orbs punched through it. The sound of breaking glass rang across the snow. The sentry hopped off the wall and scrambled over to his General.

“Reflecto! Reflecto!”
“Hmmph. What?”
“The window, the glass, the troops!”
The sentry pointed over towards the wall. Reflecto understood, and ordered his artillery units to fire at the oncoming enemies.

PPR was taking heavy fire from the artillery, and all their units were dodging left and right to avoid getting squished. The Kinetic Pikmin Pulverizer moved forward, within firing range. It fired off shots as fast as it could. The wall shook, as it could not withstand heavy impacts. The artillery fire was interrupted, as Groinks and Cannon Beetles alike fell back off the wall. MechaBorbs rushed in, hammering the wall with BorbBorbs of all kinds. The wall began to crack, but boulders continued to fly over it. A Kinetic Orb punched right through a weakened section of the wall, and flew straight into the face of the Mantibeatle on the other side. More Kinetic Orbs and BorbBorbs pounded the Crystal Wall, until it looked like an arch more than anything else.

The troops were just about to advance when a squad of Inviso Pikmin appeared out of thin air. They lunged at the Decorated Cannon Beetles. The troops were taken completely by surprise, and quite a few cannon beetles lay beaten. However, the blowhogs were soon on the Inviso Pikmins’ trail. In the midst of this confusion, artillery fire from the base began again, from the Groinks, Larvae, and Rock Dwellers.

PPR began to fall back, as they couldn’t advance with so many projectiles flying about. They continued back, out of range of most off the artillery. They sent off 2 BorbBorb Bombers with hope that they could mangle the defenders from above. However, this was a mistake. As the Bombers drew closer, the Smoke and Mirrors’ Anti-Air Station started up, and fired off several Medium Missiles. The first Bomber did a barrel-roll, avoided the missile, and pulled out. The second BorbBorb Bomber was not so lucky. He rolled, and dove, but a missile bounced off his wing and exploded just feet behind him. His wing was mangled and his tail was set alight. He plummeted down towards the base.

“Incoming!”
“Clear the area! Move move move!”

All the troops managed to clear away. All but the Mantibeatle. The plane collided head on with the massive troop. It screeched and reared back, its hard armor badly damaged. However, it had to be ignored for now, as the massive Empress Bulbax, troops and machines in tow, came rolling directly at the base. The wall was too weak to withstand any more. The Empress Bulbax winced in pain as it rolled over a field of spikes, but its hide was tough, and it kept rolling. Nothing was there to stop it but the Mantibeatle, as all the other units had cleared away from the doomed wall.

BAM!

The wall crumpled upon impact. The Empress Bulbax kept moving, taking heavy fire from the Mantibeatle and the returning artillery units. However, the moaning beast kept rolling, pushing the Smoke and Mirrors further back into their base. It crushed the AA Station, which was positioned not far behind the wall. It drew closer and closer to the Mantibeatle. WHAM! A crystal boulder nailed its head. The Empress rolled no further. Cheers rang out from the base. The Smoke and Mirrors charged at their attackers. But Planet Pikmin’s Rage did not back down. The two forces clashed. The Pikmin Slurper ran through the attacking ranks, engulfing squads of Pikmin. However, the Pikmin Pulverizer caught sight of it, and its Kinetic Orbs made short work of it.

With the AA Station taken care of, the BorbBorb Bombers and Berry Plane were free to wreck havoc on the enemy base. BorbBorbs rained down from the sky, taking out what remained of the artillery. The Berry Plane targeted the weak Mantibeatle, now surrounded by blowhogs. One last Kinetic Orb to the face put it out of its misery.

The Smoke and Mirrors were essentially broken. Their super was dead, machines destroyed, and most of their troops had been killed. They were pushed to the very back of their base. In a last-ditch effort, the remaining Dweevils were given a ration of space noodles. With them, they flew up, and swooped down on the enemy. The Pikmin of PPR were thrown into chaos, and many were cut down. However, the hired Airborbs soon put a stop to them.

Just when things couldn’t get worse for the Smoke and Mirrors, they did. The ground started shaking a bit, but it stopped abruptly.
“What was that?” asked Reflecto.
“Something from underground… I’ll go check it out.” Replied his captain, Honorable Thief.

With that, Honorable Thief ran off, towards the source of the shaking. He neared the resource storage. Suddenly, the ground shook again, and a shadow was cast over him. He stared straight up, into the open maw of a Burrowing Snagret.

“HOSHI-”

*gulp* *crunch* *swallow*

Looking back on the remaining, and doomed, troops, they stood no chance. Needless to say, they were all killed. Every last one of them. No prisoners, no survivors. All that is left of the base of Smoke and Mirrors is the empty buildings, and a battlefield littered with bodies and blood.
