"Last time on Total Drama Island:" Chris began, while standing on the Dock Of Shame. "Sixty one campers arrived and learned that they would be spending a few months at a crusty old summer camp. The campers, separated into two teams, the Screaming Bass and Killer Gophers, were further divided into heroes and damsels, and were forced to rescue each other. Some had a bad day,"
Flashback to Owen Grady collapsing on the ground after rescuing Owen and the dreaded Squirrel incident.
"In the end, Jack managed to win the challenge by rescuing our servant, er, his damsel, which one camper in particular found absolutely hilarious!" Chris chuckled. "And in the end, it was the Gophers who sent SpongeBob home, the first camper to leave this season! And today's challenge will be just as brutal if I have anything to say about it, which, I do. Stay tuned for the most dramatic campfire ceremony yet on, Total, Drama, Island!"
*Theme Song plays*
It was early morning. The campers were in the cafeteria, eating...whatever it was Chef had made.
Steve Rogers was eating his breakfast, which consisted of gray slop.
"I'll be honest, the food in World War 2 was slightly better," he admitted to Bucky.
"I'll second that," the Winter Soldier replied.
"Yeah! This food tastes like dog shit!" Cartman exclaimed. "I'd rather eat pubes again.."
"Where's Grady?" Apollo asked Duncan, who just shrugged.
Soon, said Raptor trainer walked in, wincing a bit with each step. When he sat down, he tried to pick up a fork, but couldn't lift it. "God *bleep* dammit!" He muttered.
"Expensive beeps! We only get a few for each episode." Chris chastised, while eating his gourmet breakfast.
"Go *bleep* yourself." Owen Grady muttered.
"Sorry..." Owen said.
"Don't talk to me!"
"*Bleep* *Bleep*ity *Bleep* *Bleep* Fuck!" Cartman exclaimed, trying to intentionally stir up drama, and cost the producers their budget.
"Chef?" Chris asked, glaring at Cartman. The big scary black guy proceeded to walk over, and take away Cartman's food, and give it to Owen, Homer and Patrick.
"Woohoo!" Homer exclaimed, trying to eat it with the fork, but jabbing himself instead.
"D'oh!"
"Gray slop! Yum!" Patrick said in excitement, to which the three immediately scarfed it down, leaving Cartman with a stunned expression.
"Ey! What the fu-" Cartman began, before he was cut off by Zillum who shoved him from the table.
"Stuff it." Zillum snapped.
"I think he's stuffed enough as it is.." Drew commented, deciding to jump in on this one.
All of the Earthrealmers who were sitting with Drew at a table, especially Johnny Cage, laughed at this remark, which earned him a Johnny Cage fist bump. Even Jade and Kitana couldn't help but giggle at that. Bebe, Bridgette, Duncan, even Heather of all people, stifled a laugh.
Zillum hesitated, before chuckling a bit, amused himself.
"Wow...you actually laugh at something for once?" Apollo asked with a grin.
"Shut it." Zillum growled, going back to his previously grumpy demeanor.
Cartman said nothing more, simply crossing his arms around his fat gut in a huff.
"Alright, Campers, for today's challenge, you are going to participate in America's national past-time, a good old game of Softball!"
"H'wat!" Hank Hill exclaimed, standing to his feet. Bill and Dale even appeared shocked as well by that statement. "Now you listen here, Mister! I don't know h'wat the hell they teach you in Canada, but in America, we play baseball!"
Chris just chuckled. "Baseball, softball, same thing!"
"No, no, no!" Hank Hill exclaimed, not believing what he was hearing.
"Kick his ass, Hank!" Dale exclaimed, trying to stir up drama.
"Chef?" Chris asked with a grin. The response was a baseball thrown from the kitchen that hit Hank in the groin.
"Bwah!" Hank Hill yelped in pain, falling to the ground.
"Ooh.." Dale cringed. "That can't be good for your narrow urethra.."
"Shut.. it… Dale!" Hank Hill warned through the pain in his groin.
"Alright, the starting lineup for the Gophers are: Shao Kahn as Captain,"
"Emperor Captain!" Shao Kahn exclaimed in his deep voice.
"That's Mr.DoctorProfessorEmperorCapta-" Patrick began to annoyingly say, before he was knocked unconscious by a rubber duck that was thrown at him.
"I'm surrounded by idiots," Alex muttered quietly.
"Hey!" Homer said, taking offense to that.
"Takes one to know one." Zillum said to Alex.
"If you want some, I'll give it ya," Alex said in a slurred voice. "It's… an old meme," he added.
What he got was a chair thrown at his face.
"Kick his ass, Queen Elizabeth!" Dale exclaimed once more, again trying to stir up drama.
"That's going to leave a mark..." Jack muttered.
"Twat," Alex professed his annoyance.
"Alright, now the Killer Gophers lineup is: Captain Shao-Kahn, Catcher: Liu Kang, Pitcher: Drew,"
"Pitcher?" Drew asked with widened eyes. "I've always been more of a hitter, but-"
"What is a catcher?" Liu Kang asked, slightly confused.
"Ever heard of 'stickball' back from.. wherever it is you came from?" Duncan interjected. "Listen, Jackie Chan, you see the ball come at you, you catch it.. If the hitter of the ball hits it up, you catch it.. You catch it or tag people not on a base three times, they're out.. You switch.."
"Leave it to Duncan to do my job for me.." Chris shrugged with a laugh.
"First Base is Robert E. Lee, Second Base is Randy Marsh, and Third Base is Stevie Wonder,"
Chris looked at the list one last time. "Shortstop is Sub-Zero, Left-Fielder is Trent, Center Field is Scorpion, with the Squirrels-"
"Mention those wretched hell-beasts one more time!.." Scorpion warned, trying to summon fire in his hand, but couldn't. However, that didn't stop his hellish, demonic voice from being known.
"And Right Field is Raiden." Chris finished.
"Hey!" Harold exclaimed. "What about the rest of us?.."
"You'll be the crowd." Chris said with a grin. "However, the Captain can bring in new players if necessary."
"But can only bring in three new players the whole game." He added.
"Uh, hello! Aren't you forgetting your most valuable player, here?" Heather yelled out.
"Don't worry, hot stuff.. He just hasn't called my team off yet. That's all.." Johnny Cage confidently spoke.
Heather evidently scoffed and gave him a shove.
"Not you, pretty boy! I meant me!" Heather yelled once more. "Chris! What is the meaning of this? There has to be some kind of mix up!"
"Nope," Chris said with a grin. "And, for the Screaming Bass," Chris stopped.
"Pitcher is Jack, Catcher is Owen,"
Jack cocked a brow, noticing he hadn't called out the Captain.
"Uh, Chris?" Bridgette softly brought up, noticing this as well. "You forgot to call out their team captain.."
"All in good time, Bridgette, all in good time," Chris replied cryptically.
"I don't like that guy.." Sub-Zero crossed his arms.
"First Base is Duncan, Second is Thor, Third is DJ, Shortstop is Stark Raving Hazelnut,"
Tony chuckled. "Thank you, Ben & Jerry's," he remarked, unsure whether it was genuine or sarcastic.
"Left is Kung Lao, Center is Carandial, and Right is Zillum,"
"And I'm the Captain.." Johnny Cage shrugged with a smirk. "I get it.. Gotta save the best for last.."
Chris began to snicker. "Nope. Our final contestant is joining us now."
"Another contestant!?" Duncan shouted in annoyance. "How many are you gonna have? When I see him, I swear I'm gonna kick his a-"
Suddenly, the ground began to shake, cutting Duncan off. Pretty much everyone bounced a bit off the ground with each step.
There was dead silence for several seconds.. That was until,
SMASH!
The front entrance to the cafeteria was smashed open with ease, by none other than a mere fist. But this wasn't just any person..
Everyone gasped in shock, seeing this monster for the first time.
"No.." Shao Kahn softly whispered, showing slight fear for the first time since he's been here. "It can't be.."
"Where is Shao Kahn!?" The beast demanded, it deep, monstrous voice echoing throughout the room.
Everyone immediately pointed at Shao Kahn, even Chris and Chef.
Finally, the beast stepped up to Shao Kahn, staring down at him. After a bit, he began to wickedly laugh at the top of his lungs. This caused Shao Kahn to take a step back, but to maintain his 'tough' factor, he put on a scowl and looked up at his mortal enemy.
"Onaga.." Shao Kahn finally said aloud.
Raiden and the Earthrealmers knew full well who this was! This was the Dragon King! The former Emperor of Outworld! One of the most powerful beings to ever be alive!
Onaga stood at a towering 10 feet tall, and weighed at least a ton!
And Chris apparently said that he was a contestant on the show!?
This would not be easy for the Killer Gophers..
"And...the Screaming Bass' team captain." Chris added.
"You have a twisted mind, you know that?.." Gwen commented to Chris.
"I know, Gwen. I know." Chris chuckled.
Zillum cocked a brow, but didn't say anything. This was an interesting development…
*Confession Cam*
"This mortal thinks resurrecting The Dragon King was a smart idea!? Is he insane!?" Shao Kahn admitted, freaking out. He then sighed. "Well regardless.. I have dealt with him before, and I can do so again.. This time, all I need to do is win a mere game of stickball. This will be easy.."
*Confession Cam*
"I'm starting to think the Discount Actor from Canada is a lunatic.." Raiden said. "Now we have not only Shao Kahn, but Onaga to deal with! This will not be an easy task.."
*Confession Cam*
"Remember what I said about kicking the new contestant's ass?" Duncan spoke aloud. "Yeah I take that back.."
*Confession Cam*
"Ugh...I'm screwed..." Jack muttered. He was the pitcher, and he was honestly afraid for his life now.
*Confession Cam*
"Ugh.. I'm fucked!" Drew exclaimed in absolute fear, his face paling. He was the pitcher for the opposing team of Onaga, and he too was afraid for his life.
*Confession Cam*
"Mmmm...Donut!" Homer said, eating the last donut he had brought. "D'OH!"
*End Confession Cam*
"Uh, excuse me.." LeShawna rose her hand. "I can't help but notice the lack of sista power on these teams.." She narrowed her eyes at Chris.
"It is baseball after all, you know?" Chris said. "Besides, these two are the captains. You can join if you want though."
It cuts to a shot of Onaga and Shao Kahn staring murderously at each other.
All of the girls present widen their eyes.
"Uh, no thanks.. I changed my mind.." Heather spoke. "I can handle one dinosaur, but two?"
"Who are you calling dinosaur, foolish mortal!?" Onaga exclaimed, causing Heather's skin to instantly pale. "I am Onaga, the Dragon King! And don't ever forget it!"
Heather was actually so caught off guard and terrified, she fainted to the ground.
"Yeah.." Gwen muttered. "I'm good, thanks Chris.."
"Whateva.." LeShawna sighed, crossing her arms.
xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
The two teams walked to the field. Chef waited there, as Umpire. "First up is the Killer Gophers." Chris said.
As the majority of both teams headed into the dugout, the Bass took the field. Shao Kahn, as captain, would bat first.
Shao Kahn stepped up to the plate with his hammer, which Chris approved he could use as his bat. He eyed Jack, who was the pitcher, and looked on with confidence.
"I would suggest not throwing like a mortal! Oh wait, you are one!" Shao Kahn then chuckled to himself, thinking he had made a good joke.
Jack narrowed his eyes, and got ready. He had played baseball in Freshman year, in High School. He had been playing his whole life, actually.
He threw the ball with surprising speed, and Shao Kahn widened his eyes when Chef called out,
"Strike 1!"
"What!?" Shao Kahn yelled. "Impossible! I wasn't ready!"
"Shut your mouth and play ya little baby!" Chef yelled.
Shao Kahn turned around with a growl, prompting Chef to widen his eyes slightly. However, he had to remember, he was apart of the staff on this show..
"Do you want me to pull a red flag on you, foo'? Because I will pull a red flag!"
"Uh.. Isn't that in footba-" Alex began to say, before Chef yelled back,
"Hush yo' mouth! I'll even call a flagrant foul! I will flagrant you to death, playa! Do you want that!
Everyone knew that was a basketball term, but no one said anything this time.. Shao Kahn sighed with his eyes rolled,
"No.. I suppose not.."
"That's what I thought!" Chef said. "Now play ball!" He blew on his whistle, and Jack prepared for his second pitch.
Jack threw a curveball at Shao-Kahn, who managed to hit it. Jack widened his eyes as it flew up high towards the fence. It looked like it was going to be a home run!
"HAHAHA! Fool!" Shao Kahn taunted as he ran the bases. "That is what you get, for I am Shao Kah-"
He cut himself off, immediately stopping in his tracks when he saw that Zillum caught the ball just in time. He had jumped at the fence, and caught it right before it went over.
"No!" Shao Kahn yelled with a growl, gripping his hammer tightly.
"You're out!" Chef called, pointing to the dugout. "Now get off my field!"
Shao Kahn growled once more, stomping back to his dugout, shoving Harold off of the bench, and taking a seat..
"Ow! Gosh.." Harold complained.
"Batter up!" Chef yelled as Drew stepped up to the plate.
Drew stood with his bat with a grin of slight confidence. He never really pitched that often, but back in high school, he was known as one of their team's star hitters!
Jack took a deep breath, readying himself. He analyzed the strike-zone, and after a short while, made his move. He sent a fastball, and Drew hit it with enough force to send it all the way to the other side of the field!
While Kung Lao eventually caught the ball and threw it Thor, it was too late. Drew had reached second base!
"Could be worse.." Drew said with a shrug. "Just getting warmed up."
"Double!" Chef officially called out. "Next batter!"
Seeing one of the opposing team actually making progress, Onaga growled in boiling anger.
"Time out! Now!" Onaga exclaimed. Chef widened his eyes with gritted teeth, blowing the whistle.
"Time out for the Bass!" Chef said.
The game stopped for a short while, as Jack paled. This was not good!
Even Duncan looked a bit hesitant as his team huddled up.
"What is the meaning of this!?" Onaga scolded. "Why has the blond one advanced!?"
Everyone, even Zillum was silent, before Jack said softly. "It's my fault." He said, taking responsibility. "Don't blame them."
Onaga couldn't help but stay silent for a couple of seconds. The tension was intense. Until at last, the silence was broken when Onaga chuckled.
"A noble quality you possess.. But not one that will get us very far! Don't let this happen again.." Onaga told the whole team.
"Yes sir!" Several people replied.
"I have a plan," Onaga added once more. "but you will need to listen carefully.."
Everyone listened intently as their captain began to speak.
"Fat one," Onaga called out to Owen.
Owen nodded nervously, none of his usual happy mannerisms making themselves known.
"You will switch to third base."
Everyone widened their eyes in shock. They looked really confused as to why he would call for such a switch.
Owen and DJ looked to each other, before they nodded.
"Jack, is it?" Onaga questioned once again.
"Yes, sir." Jack replied.
"Liu Kang is batting next I believe, and he is left handed. So here's what I want you all to do: Jack, you pitch a curved fastball that will cause Liu Kang to reach out! In doing this, it should bring our chances higher of the ball soaring towards third base.. Fat one, this is where you come in.. You will catch the ball, and while the blond one runs your way, you will use all of your weight to smash into his face! This should injure him enough to kick him out of the game.." There was a brief pause, before Onaga finished, "He is too great a hitting threat for him to stay in this game.. As is Shao Kahn, but I shall deal with him.."
Everyone looked to each other, before they all gestured or voiced their agreement.
"Understood." Zillum said.
"Good, now.. Break!" Onaga exclaimed.
With that, the Bass returned to their positions on the field, some looking nervous, others looking determined and confident.
Just as Onaga said, Liu Kang stepped up to the plate, ready to bat. He looked at DJ, who was now catcher. DJ waved at Liu Kang in nervousness, before Liu Kang looked over at Owen now..
Owen appeared to be breathing heavy, as if he was mentally preparing for something. Liu Kang didn't understand the change, but he shrugged and prepared to hit anyways. Drew looked on with a confident grin. He was ready to run full force!
Jack took a deep breath, before he did exactly as Onaga had ordered! Liu Kang's eyes widened, but his reflexes were well enough that he reached out and smacked the ball.
It soared directly towards third base, which caused Owen to widen his eyes.
"AHH!" Owen screamed with closed eyes, holding out his glove. However, to his surprise, he had actually caught Liu Kang out!
"Owen! Now!" Duncan yelled out, which caused Owen to initiate phase 2 of their plan. Onaga watched on carefully, but with a wicked grin.
Drew ran like The Flash in Owen's direction, ready to juke him out like he had to those in high school. However, quite the opposite ended up happening.. Instead of tossing the ball back to second base, Owen charged at Drew at full speed and full weight,
"RAHH!" Owen fiercely yelled, which caused Drew's skin to pale. He was like a deer in headlights..
BAM!
Owen crashed directly into Drew, sending him flying back a few feet, his face directly on the ground.
Everything was silent..
Minus Drew's groans of agony, no one said anything for a full several seconds..
"Out and out!" Chef yelled. "Double Play! Switch sides!"
The entire Gopher team, most notably the Earthrealmers, Jade, and Kitana,, all rushed over to Drew's side.
"Uh.. Ohhh, ow.." Drew moaned in pain. It looked as if he had multiple bone fractures.
"Is someone gonna help him!?" Heather surprisingly exclaimed. "Hello! He's one of our best hitters! We can't lose him now!"
"Oh, shut it!" Jade warned Heather, which caused her to back off slightly.
Caesarius knelt down, and gently helped Drew up. "We need a doctor..." He said. "Timeout!" He then yelled.
"Ooh!.." Chris winced with a slight smirk. "Wicked wipeout, bro.. But good for ratings!"
As Caesarius and Jade helped Drew off the field, Shao Kahn looked over to the opposing team's dugout with utmost suspicion.
"That strategy almost looked ingenius! So orchestrated.. So evil.. Besides me, no one is capable of such a thing besides-"
Shao Kahn widened his eyes, before they narrowed once more.
"Onaga.." Shao Kahn growled. As angry as he was, he was actually just as nervous now! For a mortal, Drew was a pretty good hitter.. And to lose him so soon..
Things were looking bleaker and bleaker by the minute for the Killer Gophers..
After a little while, the teams switched, and Palpatine had been selected as the Pitcher for the Gophers.
Onaga stepped forward to bat. He gave a wicked and knowing smirk, holding up a 6 foot long Oni spine for his bat.
Palpatine narrowed his eyes as he got ready. Using his force enhanced speed, he threw the ball extremely rapidly,
SMACK!
The ball soared high into the atmosphere, so fast that even flames were on the tail end of it! It was very safe to say..
That ball was gone!
Onaga simply walked the bases, not wanting to waste his energy. The ground shook with every step, as he taunted to Palpatine,
"Looks like Shao Kahn isn't as wise with his choices as I would have once thought.." Onaga evilly laughed as he stomped back to the dugout, satisfied with his performance.
"AGHH!" Shao Kahn exclaimed, slamming his hammer down towards the ground, and hitting Harold in the nuts.
"AHHH!" Harold screamed in absolute pain, causing the geese to fly away, and causing the squirrels to stare out into the sky.
"That's going to leave a mark..." Trent said, wincing.
As Onaga returned, Jack stepped up to the plate. He was one of the few players who could both pitch and hit fairly well.
"Easy run.." Onaga commented with a smirk, making sure Jack heard it.
Jack looked at Palpatine, readying himself. Then, he got an idea. He called his shot, pointing to Center Field.
There was hushed silence from both teams.
Palpatine narrowed his eyes, and threw the ball.
The bat swung, and the ball soared high into the air, until it crossed the fence, exactly where Jack had called it.
Jack began to run the bases, while Shao Kahn stood to his feet.
"No!" He shouted once again, visible anger on his face.
The score was now 2-0, the Bass in the lead.
Kyle began to clap, and several of the Bass team began to cheer. Even Onaga couldn't help but smile at this. If it meant that Shao Kahn suffered, then so be it!
He welcomed Jack back at the dugout and told him,
"Excellent batting skills.. Not bad for a mortal."
"Just following your lead." Jack replied as he returned to the dugout.
Raiden stood with crossed arms, with Liu Kang standing beside him.
"What do you think of, Lord Raiden?.." Liu Kang asked, still slightly ashamed in his performance earlier. He felt partially responsible for Drew's condition, and wanted to make things right..
Jade and Kitana stood beside Liu Kang and Raiden as well. They weren't allowed in the infirmary with Drew, and had to stay behind.
All of them felt terrible for their newfound ally's condition, but for now, they decided to push forward.
"I think of this as a win-win.." Raiden admitted.
"What do you mean?" Jade questioned him.
"If the Gophers somehow come back and win, the threat of Onaga could be easily wiped out by a simple vote.. If the Bass win, then Shao Kahn likely falls.. Our reason for coming here will have been completed, but we would still need to watch out for the other threat.."
Liu Kang, Jade, and Kitana nodded in understanding. Even though Kitana was on the Bass, she still had that mindset that it was Princess Of Edenia first, Reality Show contestant second..
Kung Lao wasn't present, because he would be up to bat soon.
To say it went well for the Bass...would be an understatement.
Every inning they scored at least once, and every time they were in the field, they were able to stop everything beyond a double.
Finally, Chef whistled out at the seventh inning. He looked down at a piece of paper given to him by the producers.
"In light of.. the fact, that the opposing team of the blah blah blah.."
Chef read down some more, before he got the idea of what it was trying to say.
"The score is ten nothin'! Mercy rule! Bass win!" Chef finally called out.
The Bass cheered. Jack was tired after all that. He had been pitcher and batting the whole game, but it was finally won. Zillum smirked in victory. They had triumphed yet again, and better yet, he had found a potential ally.
"RAHH!" Shao Kahn yelled, smashing his hammer down onto the field, knocking a giant crater in it. A lot of the campers ran away from the destruction and the Emperor's rage.
"Okay.." Harold softly spoke as he ran. "Can we like.. vote him off? My gonads are not what they used to be.. That knocks quite the chink in the armor of my wickedly mad skills.."
King Julien shrugged. "Oh, who needs to vote him off when we can eliminate another commoner! He's useless now anyways."
"Hey!" Jade exclaimed towards King Julien. "At least he got us to second base! What did you do the whole time?.. Oh that's right, nothing!"
"Jade.." Kitana tried to calm her friend. "It's not worth it."
"Yeah, the rat's not worth it. We can vote him off another time." Blue said, glaring at King Julien. "But I think our 'Captain,'" she glared at Shao Kahn. "Needs to go."
"Agreed.." Raiden said.
"Me too." Liu Kang interjected.
Meanwhile, the Bass were still celebrating. Duncan, Owen and DJ dumped water on Jack to celebrate the victory. Kyle was trying to hide his smile.
"To Jack and Onaga!" Owen Grady said with a grin. The entire team repeated that.
Onaga couldn't help but grin at that. Maybe.. being apart of this show wouldn't be so bad. And besides, he had made Shao Kahn go mad, so he was content..
xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
"Campers, there are thirty campers here, and only twenty nine marshmallows. The one who does not receive a marshmallow must immediately walk the dock of shame, board the boat of losers, and you can never come back. Ever."
"Rexy," Chris said. "Erissare, Scorpion, Luke, Sam."
"Natasha, Rose, Ibilisi, Bucky Barnes, Steve, Trent, Lindsey, Heather,"
"Not surprised.." Heather confidently took her marshmallow before walking back to sit down. On her way back, Jade put her metal spear in Heather's path, causing her to trip and fall.
Everyone burst out laughing at that. Jade had done it out of revenge for what Heather said earlier in the day.
"Serves that bitch right." Erissare chuckled.
"I'm right here!" Heather reminded, not that anyone really cared.
"And?" Erissare asked, shooting her a smirk.
"Bridgette, Harold,"
"Boo-yah!" Harold said, pumping his fist down in victory. This caused Chris to cringe slightly.
"Eh...Randy, Squidward,"
"Fuck YES, brother! Woo!" Randy Marsh exclaimed, scarfing down his marshmallow.
"Whatever.." Squidward said with a sigh, his expression uncaring.
"Hank Hillbilly, Liu Kang, Raiden,"
"It's.. Hill.." Hank reminded Chris, unamused.
"Jade, Sub-Zero, Drew,"
Sub-Zero used his ice slide to quickly make it to the front, claiming his marshmallow. Meanwhile, Drew was currently in a wheelchair, a cast on his arm with multiple bandages. Jade grabbed her own marshmallow, as well as his, giving it to him.
She looked at him with pity and.. something rather unexplainable, as she went to sit back down.
"Blue, Palpatine, Caesarius, Vader, Lee."
Now, it was down to Shao Kahn and King Julien. Julien's face began to fall as he began to worry.
Shao Kahn didn't look worried at all. In fact, he had his arms crossed in utmost confidence.
"Just give me my puff of sugar so that we may be on our way.." Shao Kahn told Chris, growing impatient.
Chris held up the marshmallow, but stopped, and hesitated.
Julien was getting nervous. This...wasn't good.
If only Mort was here, he could have Mort get eliminated in his place-
"Julien."
Julien caught his marshmallow just in time.
"WHAT!?" Shao Kahn yelled, his voice booming and echoing across the island.
Elsewhere, Onaga chuckled to himself. That's when he knew what had happened..
Shao Kahn had been voted off, in the second episode..
"Yup, sorry dude, but you got kicked off the island." Chris said, starting to chuckle.
"By the way, as per the deal, you lost, so you can't invade Earthrealm again."
"RRAGHHH!" Shao Kahn once again held up his hammer with a yell. He towered over Chris, stomping his way towards him in an attempt to end his life.
"No one defies Shao Kahn! No on-"
ZAP!
Shao Kahn trembled repeatedly, as Raiden used his newfound lightning powers to zap Shao Kahn until he fell to the ground, completely unconscious. His hammer slipped out of his hand, crashing to the ground, sending a light shockwave which could be felt for quite a distance.
As the defeated Emperor was dragged off, Chris turned to the Gophers. "The rest of you are safe. For now."
xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
Scorpion waited alongside Sub-Zero, who looked at him with suspicion.
"Why have you dragged me out here, Scorpion?" Sub-Zero questioned. "What are we waiting on?"
Scorpion stood there for a couple seconds, before responding,
"You shall see, Kuai Liang.."
Finally, Zillum entered into view, followed by Jack. Zillum nodded to Scorpion, and then to Sub-Zero.
Sub-Zero looked at Zillum with suspicion and shock.
"What is going on!? Those two are Bass.." Sub-Zero pointed out.
"We are forming an inter-team alliance." Zillum stated. "That way, we can eliminate the people we want gone, no matter who wins one of these challenges. Don't deny that there are still threats here."
Jack frowned, but had to agree. Sub-Zero did the same, looking down slightly, before looking back up at Scorpion,
"And why have you chosen me?"
"You are a worthy opponent, Sub-Zero.. That much I do know from our past encounters.. But as an ally, especially in this stupid binding agreement we have made with the Thunder God, who's to say that we couldn't win the prize ourselves?" Scorpion told him.
Sub-Zero looked down for a moment, before he firmly looked up and nodded. It seemed that was enough to convince Sub-Zero.
"Exactly." Zillum said. "We're all strong contestants on our own. Together, we can control the game from the inside."
"I couldn't agree more.." A voice said aloud, stepping out from the shadows.
They all looked over towards the source of the voice, and there stood Duncan, who was carving a skull into the wooden building he was standing beside.
"How long have you been there!?" Scorpion demanded.
"About 5 minutes.. Give or take." Duncan answered, before he stepped more out into the open.
Zillum cocked a brow. "You were on this stupid competition before, correct?"
"So you have done your homework.." Duncan smirked, before he added, "And not to mention I made it to the final five last time.. I was only booted off because of Owen's stupid decision to eat Chef's sticky buns, which cost us the challenge.. Then the girls voted me off because I was the superior competitor.."
Duncan paused briefly, before finishing,
"If there's anything I know besides Juvy and woodcarving, it's how to win! Now, I won't tell about this alliance either way, but all I'm saying is, you'd probably be wise to have me be apart of your team.. Just sayin'.."
Zillum and the others looked to each other, before Zillum said simply. "Done."
