Back on the plane, Katty is getting ready. She is not excited, since she is a Luma, she just need to flout down. She yawned as she flew right out of the plane and towards the ground.
Flona: One, Katty can just fly down. Two, I CAN DO THE SAME THING!
Katty opened her eyes, she saw the beautiful birds-eye view. Living in Star Heaven, she don't get to see the outside world a lot, all she did is controlling her flight until she landed. She took off her harness, and walked towards Monty, who is waving.
"Hi Katty, please take a seat while we're waiting for the others." Monty Mole greeted, as Katty nodded and sat on a yellow chair.
Katty: That was so boring! I hope they have better missions planned for us.\
Flona flew down to the ground, she had already departed. Amazingly, she gasped, gulped and screamed once she saw how high she was. She decided to speed up, 30 seconds later, she landed and took her harness off. She made her way to a green chair as the host greeted. "Hi Flona! Please take a seat and wait for the others!" He chuckled as Flona sat down in a green chair.
Flona: That was soooooooo high, I can imagine why most of them screamed since it WAS high.
Allen prepared himself, taking one last look of the others and nodded, then the Yoshi jumped off the plane.
Nicole: When Flona jumped, she CAN fly. But she screamed, I wonder why, I'll keep an eye on her from now on.
Evan: When can I jump?
Allen have the courage to open his eyes, he saw how high he was and laughed from all the fun. Once he landed, he took his harness off and sat on the leftover green chair.
"Hi Allen! Please wait for the others and sit on a chair." Monty greeted, Allen nodded in return.
Allen: It's weird how he wanted us to sit and relax. Since all of the others are sitting, maybe he has a plan?
Evan took another deep breath, and jumped. Laughing all the way down. He groaned as he landed, he unhooked himself and sat on a black chair. As always, Monty came to him.
"Hi Evan! I guess Nicole and Vivian are the only ones left! Please sit and relax in the meantime.
"Ok." He replied, as the others stared at the sky in hope.
Evan: A need to do that again sometime, it's just so fun!
Andy: This mission is finally about to be over.
Parker: Come on, 10,000 coins is about to go in the pot so jump!
Jenny: I guess we are about to be done.
Nicole laughed from all the fun as she fell down. She wish she could do it again when she landed, but shrugged it off and took her harness off, the Goomba made her way to the other white chair. Unlike all the other times, Monty watched the sky in hope as he took out a camera.
Nicole: Why did he take out a camera? And what is that TV doing there?
Monty turned on the camera as a TV switched on. Revealing Vivian on the screen, Monty pronounced the words. "Vivian, if you stay on the plane for another 1 hour and 34 minutes, you will lose the challenge, but you'll also earn an exemption." Vivian's eyes widened at this, as all of the other players' jaws dropped, Monty said another sentence, "However, the others can convince you to jump."
Vivian shook the thought of the exemption off her mind, she need to jump so the others can be proud and maybe the others will even trust her, so she jumped, cheers can be heard from the TV.
Vivian: I don't need the exemption, I think I can survive the first execution, but mainly I did it for the money.
When Vivian landed, she ripped her harness off, and then sat on the remaining black chair. Monty grinned, "Well that's a no exemption for Vivian, and a 10,000 coin gift to the pot!" Everyone cheered, as the host told them another thing, "Now the pot stands at 10,000 coins."
Team Pot:
10,000 coins
"Parker didn't let Lily go first, that's a suspicious act." Monty pointed out, as Parker's jaw dropped, "Lily wants to go first all the time during the mission, suspicious? I think so."
"I just wanted to skydive, now deal with it!" Lily shouted, as the host shook his head.
"Steven fainted, Andy screamed, and Jenny is very terrified during their falls." Monty chuckled, "Katty is very bored because she just flew down, Flona can fly but she also screamed like if she can't fly and lastly, Vivian gave up on an exemption." All the players are deep in thought.
Andy: Well that was a surprise, one, Monty mentioned all of the suspicious moments of people, and two, Vivian gave up on the exemption.
Steven: Wow Flona is suspicious, she is a BOO, and she can fly but she is very scared, that's just weird.
Vivian: I'm more concerned on the 'nervous people', Steven, Andy and Jenny. These 3 are just pure suspicious, Steven fainting, Andy saying he's scared of heights and he's a TV REPORTER, and Jenny for her 'book' that she found, I'm ready to base my quiz on these 3.
Frank: 10,000 coins in the pot! Wohoo!
The host grinned, "That means this mission is a success, Parker, how do you fell during your fall?"
"That challenge was awesome, creepy at the same time, but we did good." Parker cheered.
The host looked at Flona and Allen, "Flana and Allen, you two can both win an exemption each in tomorrow's mission because you both sat on a green chair, the colour of an exemption." The 2 was happy and surprised at the same time while the other players' jaws dropped, "And the same for you Lily and Frank, you both get a '-1' for sitting on a red chair, the executed colour." Lily and Frank's eyes widened as the other players sighed in relief.
"I HATE YOU SADISTIC HOST! I HATE YOU SO MUCH!" Lily shouted as she grabbed the red plastic card that said '-1' and stored it away, Frank did the same thing but didn't talk.
Lily: I HATE THAT FRIKIN' WEIRD HOST!
Frank: I'm doomed.
Flona: Yes! I can get an exemption!
Allen: That was awesome.
"Now," Monty started, "You can rest for the rest of the day, we reserved at this hotel, however, 2 people will share a room. You roommate for the rest of the game is the one who sat on the same coloured chair as you. If they get executed, you're by yourself for the rest of the game. Now Green is room 101, Red is room 102, Yellow is room 103, Blue is room 104, White is room 105 and Black is room 106, find your partner and grab your card keys, one for each person. The cards are on the table behind me and good night, maybe we can see each other during dinner, and if you need me, my room is room 107, bye!" He then walked off. Some of them groaned when they found their partners. They grabbed their cards and left.
Partners:
Green- Flona & Allen
Red- Frank & Lily
Yellow- Andy & Katty
Blue- Steven & Parker
White- Jenny & Nicole
Black- Vivian & Evan
Room 101:
"What do you think about tomorrow's mission?" Flona asked, "Since I REALLY want the exemption."
Allen shrugged, "Seeing the requirements of Vivian's not-obtained exemption, it probably have some things to do with money, I think you'll need to sacrifice money for exemptions." Flona nodded.
"I'm buffed." She sat down but hopped up again, "I think I sat on something." She grabbed the book lying on the right bed, "It have a note attached to it, I'll read it, 'This is your journal and your pen, you can write down your suspects and suspicions in it, you can use it during the quizzes, good luck. – Monty Mole.' That's it, I think we have these things to help us." Flona picked up a green book that said 'The Mole: Saboteur Investigation' on the top, 'Flona' on the bottom-left corner and 'Journal 8' on the bottom-right corner, she opened it, seeing a green pen that said 'TM: SI', "Look! They are the initials for The Mole: Saboteur Investigation!" She giggled, as Allen grabbed the green book on the left bed, it had the same note, just with 'Allen instead of 'Flona' and 'Journal 9' instead of 'Journal 8'.
"I'm going to write in it, please don't talk." He turned around, seeing Flona writing in her's, "Oh…"
Flona: Allen seems like a nice guy, I think I should ask him for an alliance, just kidding! It's only episode 1, ah, these journals are neatly ruled for us, just perfect, a great help for us.
Allen: Flona could be the Mole because of her performance in Sky Divers, I'll see what will she do tomorrow and decide should I put more votes on her or not.
Room 102:
Lily grabbed the green book on the left bed and read out the message, she ripped off the note and looked at the cover of the book, all the same except for the name and the number, her number is 2, Frank's was 6. She took out her '-1' and looked at it, "Ugh! Frank, do you think we can both make it past this episode with these weird things?"
"No, I'm pretty sure one of us will be executed." He replied, as he started to write in his journal.
"Wow thanks for nothing!" Lily shouted back, as she stored the card away and started writing as well.
Frank: Lily is very rough, but smart at the same time, I hope that I can form an alliance with her. Since I don't think she is the Mole.
Lily: I think I can trust Frank, dang I hate this '-1'! If he's the Mole, I think I'll get executed, if he is not, I wish we can both survive and form an alliance, or not.
Growl…
Frank blushed, "Oh, I guess I'm a bit hungry, hehe." He rubbed the back of his helmet/head.
Lily looked at him in disbelief, "You are HUNGRY!? Please, it's only 3:30!"
And the duo of unluckiness talked about… Frank's stomach.
Room 103:
Andy's writing in his journal, not very different, just had his name and the number of his journal is 4, Katty's journal number is 7.
Katty: This is what we call luck! Now it's only the 2 of us…
"Andy?" Katty smiled from the right bed.
"Yeah?" He closed his journal. He was sitting on the left bed.
"Would you like to form an alliance?" She asked, 2 people had already failed, but she doesn't know that.
"Are you sure?" He asked, as Katty nodded, "Alright, deal."
Andy: I think I can trust Katty, she just doesn't stand out. Nor is she the type of people who is the Mole.
Katty: SCORE!
"Thank-you! Who do you suspect?" She asked once again, "I suspect Nicole since she's very calm and smart."
"Hmm." He thought for a while, then smiled, "Vivian for obvious reasons."
Katty giggled, wrote something down in her journal and faced Andy once more, "Well I hope we both survive the first execution.
"Me too."
Andy: She seems like the mysterious type to me, but remember, she is a LUMA, they ARE mysterious after all.
Katty: Hm, hmm, he suspects Vivian, good point, she like to be the leader or something like that, hmm, I guess I shouldn't base my quiz on anyone yet.
Room 104:
Parker sat on the left bed with journal 1 in his hand, he wrote down the pairs and some notes, he peeked at the right bed, seeing Steven sitting on it with journal 3, he was also writing, Parker tilted his head in confusion, "What are you writing?" Steven didn't say anything, instead, he showed him his journal, which have the arrival order, who arrived by themselves, who was nervous during the first mission, when did everyone jump, who was offered exemptions (Vivian, Flona & Allen), who received '-1's and the rooms/pairs.
Parker: He wrote down everything that could be asked during the quiz, so I asked him may I copy it, and he just nodded.
Steven: It's very hard to remember things after a while, I just thought these information will be helpful.
"So what about the alliance?" Parker asked, hoping Steven will say yes.
"When I can trust you." Steven replied, then went straight back into writing.
Parker sighed, then wrote down the players' names and species, but remembered something. "Hey Steven, what's your last name, your birthday and your occupation?"
"Idile, August 4th and Waiter." Parker quickly wrote the information down.
Steven: That's a weird question, but the form we filled in did ask these questions.
Parker: Once again, I failed, but he is not Mole-like to me, I think he's just a player.
Room 105:
Jenny sat quietly as she wrote in her journal, journal 5, she sat on the left bed and continued writing, Nicole sighed in disbelief as she sat on the right bed and grabbed journal 11. They both kept quiet, however, both deep in thought.
Nicole: I'm ready to base my quiz on Jenny and Flona, I mean, they're just saying they are the Mole in front of us!
Jenny: Nicole seemed like the Mole to me, but you can never judge people by first impressions, right? I'm going to split the answers between everybody.
After 3 hours of writing/napping, the girls made their way to the restaurant.
Room 106:
Vivian grabbed journal 12 that's sitting on the right bed, Evan sat on the left bed and grabbed journal 10. Evan imminently started writing as Vivian looked at her journal, she opened it and wrote 'FW & AL, FF & LR, AV & KS, SI & PS, JA & NH', Evan looked at it, wondering what it is. Suddenly, Vivian wrote something else, more like a message to him, 'IWNGEF, E'. Evan stared at the page in wonder, Vivian closed her journal, "Get it?"
Evan is still deep in thought. Wondering what all these letters stands for.
Vivian: The producers can sneak into your journal if you don't be careful. So I wrote everything in a riddle form, time to bring a Vivian here. (Vivian from The Mole: Saboteur's Island)
Evan: Vivian is very mysterious, first giving up on an exemption, then wrote a bunch of unknown letters, I think I can base my quiz on her, since there's a 99% chance for her to be the Mole in my opinion.
During dinner time, everyone came in separately, they all had a great meal, but when they went back, some of them knew something was missing.
Room 101:
Flona went through the wardrobes, "Allen? Do you know where our bags are?"
He shrugged, "Don't ask me, I donno!"
"Hmm, weird, did I even bring anything with me?" Allen face-palmed at Flona's stupidity.
Flona: Seriously, did I even bring anything with me?
Allen: Flona is just stupid, it's only DAY 1! How did she forget? Oh well, where's my bag…
Room 102:
Lily was searching everywhere for her bag, Frank just sat there, flicking through the channels on the TV, he didn't really care about it, since nothing's really inside, plus he don't need to wash his neckerchief or wristbands.
Lily: Frank isn't helping, does he even care about it? He wouldn't if he is the Mole, since the Mole knew everything! Ugh!
Frank: Calm down, chill out, I'm a Fire Bro, and I live in Toad Town, so I didn't bring anything important with me. So what's with all the rush?
Room 103:
Both of them is going through the wardrobes and the drawers, "Found anything?" Andy asked, Katty shook her head, the 2 gave up after a while.
Katty: WHERE'S MY BAG!?
Andy: Weird. Does the producers need our bags?
Room 104:
Steven tried to find his bag as Parker lied in his bed, he didn't really care since he ate too much. 20 minutes later, Steven searched everywhere but came back empty-handed.
Steven: I can find the bags, now what?
Parker: I ate too much. Now I'm having a stomach ache, ow.
Room 105:
Jenny tried to keep calm when she found out her bag was missing. Nicole was cursing the show.
Jenny: Now Nicole was having an outrage, and my bathroom stuff is gone, the only idea is the next mission have something to do with our bags.
Nicole: CURSE THIS SHOW!
Room 106:
Vivian was stomping on the ground, Evan was still searching, after a while, they gave up on the search.
Vivian: MY BAG! These producers are SO going to get it.
Evan: Now I'm sure Vivian is the Mole.
Monty was already in the lobby when everyone arrived, he grinned, "Had a great sleep players?"
"Yup, now the aching is gone." Parker said, as everyone else except for Steven looked at him in confusion.
"He ate too much last night, to answer your question, the bed is very comfortable." Steven explained.
"Well it would be better if we have our bags." Jenny remarked, as the host chuckled.
"Yeah! Spit the words out already!" Vivian demanded.
"Well Flona and Allen, you 2 will be competing against the others. Your bags are above the pipes, the pipes connects to a volcano, every 2 minutes, the 2 will each be given an arrow and a bow, they'll shoot, aiming for the rope that hung up your bags. You'll each be given a clue for where the key that unlocks the cage surrounding the bags, such as, Vivian can get Parker's bag's clue, she found the key in time and unlocked Parker's bag's cage, so that's 1000 coins into the pot, the ropes they'll be aiming for will be picked out of the hat. If they shoot down 4 bags, they'll both win an exemption each, and it's not that easy. You two must go to the marked place on this map, retrieve the dark green cards that says 'exemption' and come back, then your timers starts. There are 2 exemptions. Got it? Here's the maps and clues."
Steven sighed, "Can't we have another host instead of this weird, creepy, sadistic one?"
Nicole was worried, "This is disturbing! Please tell us the real mission." As the host shacked his head, she gasped.
Andy also sighed, "I hate this host, I hate him so much, he's playing us around like toys."
Flona and Allen's bags lowered, the host puts them aside, then started the mission.
Parker: Let me get this right, so we are 'saving' our bags, while the 2 are 'killing' the bags, it's like the perfect chance to sabotage for Flona or Allen.
Katty: We are 'fighting' for our bags, right?
Nicole: Mission 1: Find the place of the key, mission 2: Go there, and lastly, mission 3: Get the key back.
Frank's clue:
In the place where all the survival things comes from, this place is the 'maker's shed', go there and retrieve the key for Nicole.
Frank: Maker's shed, store room?
Vivian's clue:
Andy's key is in the place where knowledge comes from.
Vivian: Reception?
Steven's clue:
In the drooling hole is where Katty's key awaits you.
Steven: The… hole?
Lily's clue:
Evan's key is busy celebrating.
Lily: What the hell!?
Andy's clue:
Lily's key is where you wait, in the Mole's hand.
Andy: WHAT!? THE MOLE!?
Evan's clue:
Vivian's key is ordering food.
Evan: Well that's easy, dining room!
Jenny's clue:
Frank's key is putting equipment away.
Jenny: Aha.
Nicole's clue:
Parker's key is among the drinks.
Nicole: Drinks… aha..
Katty's clue:
Jenny's bag is checking creatures out.
Katty: Is there a lab around here?
Parker's clue:
Steven's key is at the place where you lie down.
Parker: Out of all of the people, I got Steven's, what are the chances of that!?
Katty went to the signs, trying to find a sign that leads her to the laboratory.
Evan ran to the dining room, Jenny ran to the storage room with Frank while Nicole ran to the bar, Vivian thought for a while.
Vivian: What the heck is Katty doing!? She's only wasting time!
Steven: I have NO idea where the drooling hole is. The bar?
Steven ran to the bar.
Parker looked below him, nothing but his shadow.
Parker: That's weird. Where could it be?
The Yoshi and the Boo ran down the hallway, trying to get the games room, where the exemptions awaits them, after a minute, Allen face-palmed, "Sorry Flona, I'm such an idiot, I held the map upside-down." Flona's jaw dropped, "How about you lead?"
"I'm not so good with these stuff, sorry, but I'll fail epically." Allen shacked his head, Flona gave up, "Alright, follow me." She grabbed the map, and in a matter of seconds, they arrived.
Allen: Flona knew the directions while she says that she doesn't, but unlike the Mole, she is WASTING OUR time, I don't believe she's the Mole.
Flona: Allen wasted our time, that's what the Mole DON'T want to do, I don't think he's the Mole. I think we should align as soon as possible.
A Hammer Bro walked up to them, he's wearing a t-shirt with The Mole's logo, "Hi there, here's the exemptions." He handed Allen 2 exemptions and walked away.
"That, was weird." Flona commented.
"C'mon, let's go." Allen told her, Flona nodded, as the duo ran out again. The Hammer Bro smirked, as he pulled out a teleport phone that he will give them if they asked.
Next time on The Mole: Saboteur Investigation:
The players had a blast trying to find out the keys.
"GOD! WHERE IS THE KEY!?" ? shouted.
Did the duo win the exemptions?
The 1st execution is here.

"I'm sorry but you're the Mole's 1st victim." Monty told him/ her.
The Mole striked down their 1st victim.
So here's the 2nd chapter, who do you think is the Mole? There's a poll up on my profile, it have EVERYONE in it, so you'll have no idea who got executed so far, happy Mole hunting!
