Fault could feel the ship rocking in the water steadily below his bent knees. He water the small swells of water called waves crashing gently against the boat. He finished his pray for strength and power in battle and opened his eyes. He could see the stars quite well. The moon was dim, as only a small sliver of it peeked out of it's hiding.
He could see thousands of stars, but only one interested him. He knew hocotate was orbiting it. His home orbited one of the brightest stars in the sky. He could pinpoint it with his finger.
Suddenly, the boat jolted, and Fault was jostled a little as the the Barge landed. He and his pikmin flooded of the barge. A smaller ship with cannons mounted on the front swung around, positioning itself between the barges.
=====
Jarlaxle was waiting for Fault when he finally made it to the main land. They could see the lights of the target base farther off. They went over the plan one last time, and their forces split in half, Jarlaxle moving to command one group, while Fault moved to command the other.
=====
The black pikmin in Fault's group pulled out their knives. They knew what to do. A few of Jarlaxle's troops used their infrared vision to point out the guards patrolling the first area. The black pikmin used their natural stealth and camouflage to sneak up behind each guard and cut their throats with the combat knives. They avoided the larger creatures, moving along once they had eliminated the smaller guards.
The brown pikmin would already be in place in the trap doors around the area. The Stinger would also be in place behind the large rocks. They would focus on firing borborbs into the ammo and weapon storage, as well as the barracks, once they were discovered.
Fault and his troops were halfway to the resource storage. There weren't as many guards here in the inner area of the base. Getting in the storage would be a piece of cake.
=====
I'll leave the next half of this turn to Pendragon. He'll go to when we get to the storage, at which point we'll probably be discovered, and the fighting will begin.

Fifteen Dark Pikmin Mages (split up evenly under the three trapdoors) called upon their magic, and erected globes of darkness, impenetrable to any light, over the trapdoor pits. Meanwhile, the Orcs and Goblins moved stealthily (for their kind, at any rate) to the resource storage area. As they neared it, the 30 Dark Pikmin Foot Soldiers, the remaining 15 Mages, and the Black Pikmin, all of whom moved significantly more stealthily than the goblinkin, crept into ambush positions just outside of the light of the resource and petal storage building. The goblins entered the petal storage area, grabbing as many as their arms could carry, while the muscular orcs grabbed large quantities of the heavy metals in the resource storage. The Mages prepared, but did not cast, more globes of darkness, waiting until they were spotted to douse the lights. The ensuing chaos would be delicious, but still, it would be better if they remained unseen.

Oh, I thought you just meant the troops. Wait, why am I sending it in if the plan could change based on how he reacts?

Jerome's POV
We noticed the intrudes stealing from us. some of our troops shot them but some got away. then...the real fight has begun
I grabbed a weapon from the shack and ran to the temple to protect project "Prayer"
after giving orders on everyone on what to do. the bulborbs and bulbmin started hunting and ate some black pikmin while some were dieing from some goblins and other black pikmin pushing them to the weapon and ammo huts and some black pikmin got some spirit hands Dragging them down into the ground and 100 Ghost-min all having Phantom rifles guarded Jerome's tomb(resource storage) started shooting at the attackers but they could not see very well and had a hard time shooting. the ghost-min with the flesh killer blades are doing much better with the close range
then some blowhogs Blew some fire on Mages while some escaped the fire they ran over to some more spirit hands and some escaped those too
then some more Enemy's came and stole some stuff from behind

Okay, there are a few problems with this. You have no way of knowing we are in the trap doors, so you cannot counter that.
And the battles not over. Me and Pen will be writing another set of logs to counter what you are doing. Since you can't know that we are in the trap doors, that part of your log won't be counted until you have some direct way of knowing that we are in there. (Like seeing someone go in it.)
My next log will be up in a bit.

Okay, next part.
=====
As Fault's group gathered up the remaining petals, he could here enemies yelling outside. They must have found the dead guards. Then, one, then another, then many more began to burst into the storage. They had blades and rifles.
They all fled outside, were they would have an edge because of the darkness. All the nimkips were black in color, like the black pikmin. Fighting was beginning break out, and pikmin next to him was shot. He and his pikmin fled behind enemy lines, many of the enemies didn't notice it, mostly because of the black coloring of his troops. They began to fire elemental attacks from behind, and the black pikmin cut their throats when they could get a clear chance.
They were both at a disadvantage because of teh darkness of the night, but his troops had that camouflage edge. Then the hands came out. They were dragging pikmin down into the ground. Many nimkips began to swarm those one at a time, easily taking them out because their we're more nimkips than the hands could handle.
They had cut a huge swath out of the enemy lines, and the orcs and goblins on his side came through. The goblins headed for the barges, and the orcs headed for the trap doors, dropping their heavier loads down into them. The brown pikmin began to tote them to the barges, all the while, Fault's combat troops cutting down anyone who tried to follow the orcs, which wasn't hard. They may have missed a few because of the darkness...
=====
The pikmin running the stinger behind the rocks could hear fighting...
"Should we fire?" The cannon users asked.
"FIRE!" The captain of the stinger yelled.
=====
Borborbs started hitting close to the three storage. Many of them missing and blowing enemy troops away that we're still searching the area for looters. Many of the stray borborbs fond their marks, and the barracks and storages began to crumble with continues hits. It wouldn't be long before they were gone.
((Pen will take the next half, after that, we will leave.))

Fault's Pikmin and Nimpiks may have been effectively blind, but the Dark Pikmin, who had all grown up in the absolute darkness of the underground, could see from the starlight as clearly as a bright, sunny day. The Foot Soldiers, though they lacked weapons, used their camouflage and visibility advantages to ambush all who attempted to follow them. As effective as they were, though, it was the Mages, coming out of the tunnels even as the Orcs and Goblins entered, who proved the real threat. With their faerie fire, they lit up clear targets for Fault's better-armed troops, and with their globes of darkness, they created impromptu ambush sites (many of which were decoys, but the ghosts had no way of knowing that). Finally, as the last few Orcs ran past with their heavy loads, the Dark Pikmin turned and ran, silent as the night itself. Jarlaxle, watching the battle from a scrying bowl (purely flavor; I don't have anything of the sort!) smirked; this had been far too easy.
