Hi! Here's the second chapter! thanks for all of your support!~Britt

I started eating soup. Lots and lots of soup. That was my second challenge. To eat two pounds of soup. It was cream of mushroom and not a very good brand of it. Halfway through, I puked. So then Joe laughed in my face and said out of the "kindness of his heart" he would give me a second chance. So tonight I will be eating two pounds of chicken noodle soup (he ran out of cream of mushroom). I am not excited at all. I mean, seriously, the elevator challenge was easy. All I had to do was annoy people and that's what Trish says I do best. Sadly I'm not too good at eating two pounds of my least favorite soup in a maximum of 2 ½ hours. Goodness do I hate soup. It's so watery and weird. You can drink it or chew it. That just strikes me as unnatural. I think people should drink drinks and chew food. But anyhow, that's not the current problem. The current problem is that I hate soup. I'm good at eating fast and a lot, but not stuff I don't like. I'm good at cooking too. So I decided to go talk to Austin. He's really good at helping me make up schemes. I walked into Sonic Boom.

"Hey Ally! Is Austin around?" I yelled to Ally, who was currently working the counter. There wasn't much business though. Just a guy trying out a flute, the old lady that always seems to be there, and Nelson, who was trying (and kinda failing) at playing Beethoven's "Fur Elise" while drinking soda.

"Nope, Austin went over to the pancake house across the mall." Ally yelled back. So I left (after telling Nelson that he probably doesn't need anymore sugar.) and headed to the pancake house. I walked in the pancake shaped doors (the handles looked like pats of butter) and looked around for Austin. He was over in a booth, eating a huge stack of chocolate pancakes.

"Huy Dewz, I wuz juwst finwishing my wast pwancake." Austin said with his mouth full.

"Um… you have like, six more on your plate dude." I responded.

"Yeah, but, see, these ones are for later." He said, wrapping them up in plastic wrap and putting them in his backpack.

"Um… okaaay. I have a problem. I have to eat two pounds of SOUP tonight within 2 ½ hours!" I said, practically sobbing "And you KNOW I hate soup!"

"Joe's making you do that for the second challenge?" I nodded "Well, eating lots of food really fast isn't good for you, I would know. So you have to break it up into lots of small meals. So basically just eat maybe a cup of soup and then rest and drink for a few minutes, then eat some more and then rest and so on."

"Jeez Austin, you are so smart! I never would have thought of that."

"Two pounds isn't THAT much anyway, but I guess it seems like more since you hate it."

"No kidding. Well I got to go! Thanks Austin!" I said, walking towards the exit.

LATER THAT NIGHT AT SONIC BOOM:

"Wow Dez, you did great! You actually beat the second challenge!" Trish said, slapping me a little too hard on the back. They had all gone to Joe's Coffee to watch me in the soup eating challenge and, trust me, their support kept me going. Austin got really hungry afterwards so we stopped for dinner at a fast food chain. That's when I puked. Thankfully I was able to get to the bathroom in time. I sat away from everyone so I didn't have to see any more food. After a few minutes I was hungry again so I ordered some fries. That was basically our evening.

"I can't believe I didn't puke!"

"I thought I was gonna puke just watching you, Dez" Said Ally.

"It wasn't THAT gross." Replied Austin.

"Uh, yeah it was. Almost as gross as you at the pancake house." She responded.

"Hey! It's pancakes. Eating your favorite food while being gross is totally different." He said defiantly.

"Oh whatever you guys! At least it's over!" I proclaimed.

"Yeah, two down, four to go!" Trish said what everyone was thinking.

Stay tuned for chapter three and thanks for reading!
