Next Chapter, Thank you all for the support. I don't own anything than my own OC's. This is only half as long as I wanted it to be due to not having much to work with. Next chapter will be better I promise.
Classic Truths and Dares
Solgaleo's
The Solgaleo's were now in Kiera's room as it was larger than most of theirs. Each of them was discussing the current events so far, Lilliana stayed silent in a thinking expression. It was a six on six still, with Cherish and Flint being eliminated already. Their eliminations had their own reasons, Flint quitting the competition and Cherish eliminated by the host's decision. The team couldn't rely on that because one day they would have to vote for one of their team to get rid of.
Lilliana couldn't decide who to get rid of first, everyone was good in their own way. However, if she had to narrow it down, Yoru and Momo would be on the chopping block. They were both energetic individuals, Yoru being more of a prankster and Momo just being playful. In terms of balance, one of them had to go, but who?
"Hey Lilliana, you okay?" Fiona shook the shoulder of the Servine
"Hm? Oh, yeah I'm fine," Lilliana nodded
"You were spacing out there, something or someone on your mind?" Yoru smirked
"No, just thinking. If we ever lost, one of us would have to go," replied Lilliana as this made everyone quiet down and become uneasy
"Then we can't lose," Autumn said firmly
Everyone nodded at this, Lilliana peering to the corner of her eye to notice Skyler near the doorway out of everyone's view. Lilliana got up to go talk to her friend that was on the opposite team. Upon exiting the room, Lilliana could feel an atmosphere of intensity and suspicion.
"You alright?" Lilliana asked Skyler
"It's that Greninja, he's up to something. I'm warning you to be careful what he tells you until I find out what he is up to," warned the Scizor
"Tsunami? I believe you on that part. He acts very oddly and when he talked to me about being different from everyone else," nodded Lilliana
"Just watch yourself and keep away from him,"
"Will do,"
Lunala's
Tsunami watched Cream milling about, his plan already set to get rid of the giant ice cream cone. He had told Jennifer about it already, and she agreed with his judgment. Once Cream was gone, Tsunami could focus on the other team. Getting rid of Yoru and Momo right away before targeting Skyler on his team. If he played his cards right, he could easily get away with it all without anyone suspecting him
"Just play the game, no one will suspect," he told himself as he exited his room to get some fresh air
"ALL CONTESTANTS! REPORT TO THE GAME SHOW AREA!" an announcement was made
"Well that makes this easy,"
000
"If I had to guess what we're doing, it would have to be some type of other game show," Tsunami stated
000
Everyone reported to the game area as they saw a bunch of podium like desks with buzzers on them. There was a giant scoreboard with the Solgaleo sign and the Lunala sign as well. The hosts were there as usual, along with a ton of paper with writing on it.
"Welcome, contestants to our little challenge from a classic. Truth or Dare?" Kavi said happily
"You've got to be kidding me," Autumn groaned
"Nope, we had the viewers send in their truths and dares for all of you. Now the objective of the game is to take on your dare or truth without refusing. Completing a truth or dare will earn your team points, and in the case that two or more people are involved, whoever participates and completes that task will receive a point for their team. If you refuse to answer a truth or take on a dare, you make your team lose a point. So if you guys want to win, I suggest losing all pride you have and prepare to get humiliated," Kavi explained further
"Does this involve personal problems?" Logan questioned hoping that he was told wrong
"Yep, the viewers want to get to know you better so why not?" Keldeo answered smiling
"Great," the cast grumbled
"So take your seats because this will be a long day,"
Everyone took their seats as the hosts were sorting out all the paper. Separating the papers of truths from dares, that way they could easily say the next truth or dare without having to sort it out. Once ready, the hosts went up to their own podium to announce the tasks.
"Alright, starting with a fan favorite. Tsunami, do you find anyone interesting? If so, who and why?" began Kavi
Tsunami didn't seem bothered by the question in the slightest. He was expecting one day that he had to explain himself and his viewpoint of everyone.
"To be honest, I do. Everyone here besides a select few is here for similar reasons of their own. I can only find Autumn, Lilliana and maybe Skyler interesting out of all of us. Now if you're asking if I had personal affections to any of those three, then no. I don't have any affections," Tsunami answered
"Well that was very truthful, you earned a point for your team. Oh and just in case that you try to lie, we brought the legendary that can read a truth from a lie. Please welcome Reshiram," Kavi announced as the white dragon landed on the ground
"Is this the only reason why you're paying me to be on the show?" Reshiram questioned
"Yep, no lies there," Kavi nodded
"Very well, onto the next one,"
L: 1 S: 0
"Alright, next truth is to Cream, what is 2 x 2?" Keldeo asked
"22 duh!" Cream answered as everyone faceplanted into their desk
"Well...You get a point I guess for answering," Kavi cringed at the bad answer
"She wasn't lying either," Reshiram added
"Moving on! Autumn, are you a half demon?" Kavi asked
"No," Autumn answered
"Really, why?"
"I just have anger issues, just like my dad. I also get really strong when I get pissed sometimes," Autumn shrugged
"I see, one point for the Solgaleos,"
"Tsunami, for the remainder of the challenge, listen to this song unless we ask you a question or dare you to do something," Keldeo stated as he gave Tsunami a pair of headphones
Tsunami put on the headphones as he had to endure the Care Bear song, eh, wasn't that bad compared to other music.
"Yoru, why are you such a prankster?" Reshiram questioned
"That's easy because being serious is very boring and isn't fun at all. Life is full of events that make people feel down and depressed. It's Pokemon like me who keep everyone smiling or in a slightly better mood during the day," Yoru explained
"Wow, really philosophical," Kavi clapped
"Mainly cause I want to see everyone's reaction to a prank," Yoru added
"oh," Kavi and Keldeo muttered not impressed now
"Michael, can you say one thing about each contestant?" Kavi asked
"Yes I could, do I have to?" Michael replied
"Yes you do,"
"Well I will say this, Tsunami's a deceiver, Lilliana's a natural leader, Jennifer is a bookworm, Logan is a suffering veteran, Yoru is a prankster, Kiera is an anorexic, Fiona is a photographer, Skyler is overly cautious, Cream is too easygoing, Momo is simply hyper, Autumn is practically Satan spawn..." began Michael
"I'm not a demon!" Autumn yelled
"That's everyone," finished the Crobat
"Alright, another point for the Lunala's...though you might have angered a few people," Keldeo smirked
Tsunami couldn't hear the entire thing due to the headphones.
"Autumn, what is your opinion about the other team?" Keldeo asked
"From what I can already tell, it's a mish-mash team with Pokemon who would not work together very easily. Two Pokemon in their team are neutral, two are easily going to outsmart the entire team, and the other two are actually contributing to the team," Autumn answered truthfully
"She's not wrong," Skyler added
"Alright, good answer. Logan, what about the other team?" Kavi asked the Aggron
"What's there to say, most of the team is pretty calm and relaxed. They have their own problems but they don't go at each other's throats about it. Overall, it's a really good team of heroes, if you want to look at it that way," Logan shrugged
"Mmkay," nodded Kavi
"Kiera, who is your favorite contestant?" Reshiram asked
"Me? Um, I would have to say, Fiona. She just seems to be able to keep me from being too depressed about me. Not in any relationship type of way, just out of pure honesty," answered Kiera
"How touching," Michael rolled his eyes
"Score?" Kavi asked
L: 4 S: 4
"It's a time game so far, but we got plenty of dares and truths to torture you all with," Keldeo stated
"Now we have some dares for some of you to do! First one will be for Tsunami! Tsunami!" Kavi yelled trying to get the Greninja's attention
Tsunami was seen with his eyes closed and with the music blaring, which took a Psychic to remove the said headphones so Tsunami could hear the dare.
"Alright Tsunami, this dare is specific for you. We want you to remember your worst experience," Kavi explained
"What, as in telling you?" Tsunami questioned
"Yeah, or we got another way," a machine with a helmet and a screen was shown
"This machine will show everyone what was your worst experience in your entire life. Don't worry, I programmed it myself to find your worst memory no matter how much you try to forget it," Genesect added pushing the machine over
"Fine...," Tsunami was very hesitant about this, his eyes showing fear and panic
Tsunami was strapped to the chair, the helmet coming onto his head, and then the machine began to power up. Immediately, Tsunami fell asleep as with the tv screen showing him back on a grassy field. Then the screen showed how Tsunami saw everything, but from an outsider's perspective.
-Tsunami's Memory-
There was clean, fresh air breezing through the forest area, with a small river off to the side. A village of multiple huts was seen where the river began. These huts looked simple and easy to assemble right away, the inhabitants must have been nomadic. The camera moves to further outside the village where a hot spring was seen and two Pokemon there. A Greninja and a Frogadier, both relaxing with the steamy water right up to their neck.
"Isn't this the life?" the Frogadier asked closing his eyes and sinking in into the water further
"Yes, just a relaxing day. Say, do you think father has been able to decipher the text of the past?" the Greninja replied which sounded like Tsunami but younger
"From what I heard, he was able to get closer to finding out about the prophecy. What he told me though was ridiculous,"
"Really?"
"He told me, 'The hero will reveal himself some time,' ...or something like that. See how ridiculous that was?"
"Yeah, remember that old nursery rhyme we were taught?"
"What? Iku Z? I still remember," the Frogadier stated
"Have you ever paid attention to what the lyrics mean?" asked Tsunami
"It's just a moral booster brother, nothing else. Talking about never giving up even in defeat and stuff,"
"I know that, but does it have any other meaning? You know, like the prophecy?"
Then they noticed the sky was darker than usual, but it wasn't because it was natural. It was dark clouds that were thin, smoke. The village would light fires but it wouldn't be this much smoke. Tsunami got out of the hot spring to look where the smoke was coming from, and he saw a giant fire where their village was. Yells could also be heard as well.
"Monami, come," Tsunami said sternly before running towards the fire
"Coming," the Frogadier replied
What Tsunami saw horrified him, the entire village on fire and other Pokemon looting the place. Bodies of the villagers were on the floor, bleeding lifeless blood as the life was taken out of them. The fire began to spread to the other forest areas as Tsunami had to use Water Shuriken to keep the fire from spreading. With help of his brother, they were able to keep the fire stuck in the village, but the looters were now gone. Tsunami's clenched his fist, his heart swelled with fear and sorrow at once.
However, his tears that began to form on his eyes became angry ones. He went inside to find survivors, but he found no one other than dead corpses. The brothers' father was seen holding a scroll that now was covered in blood, but he was still breathing. Tsunami went over to him, only to be given the bloodied scroll before the Greninja father died with his last breath. Tsunami's fist clenched tightly as he screamed at the air in fury, the entire yell being heard as it sent many Flying-Type Pokemon flying away in fright.
Tsunami's vision was blurred by water before the TV screen cut to static
The machine cut out as Tsunami woke up, his pupils small and his body shaking. He hated remembering that moment in his life. It only filled him with fury and a drive to get revenge. However, his anger was destroyed by his grief. He got up slowly, head lowered, moving to his seat without a single word. No one said anything, they didn't want to bring the issue up. Even devious hearts had their weak points.
-Tsunami-
"I...didn't...want to remember that" Tsunami admitted looking defeated and ashamed
-Fiona-
"None of us had any idea what he went through, I can't help but feel sorry for him," Fiona admitted feeling empathetic
-Confessions Ended-
"Alright, in the light of a very depressing moment, we have more dares to do. Logan, you are dared to watch War Horse," Kavi began again
"What's it about?" Logan asked fearing what the title meant
"A horse that goes through war," Keldeo answered
"Ugh...can I pass on that?" Logan groaned
"Sure, but your team doesn't get any points,"
"Moving on then! Fiona, out of all the places you've been to, which is your favorite?" Kavi asked
"I would have to say the ruins in Sinnoh, those alone are the best all around," Fiona answered
"Care to explain what happened in your past Skyler?" asked Keldeo
"Nope," angrily replied Skyler
"This is boring," Genesect grumbled
"Do you have any better ideas?" Keldeo retorted whispering
"Nope," sighed Genesect dejected
"We got one more dare for both teams. It will be our tie breaker against the two teams. From our producers themselves, they want to see Tsunami and Lilliana go into a battle against one another to determine the winner of the challenge," Kavi explained
"Any specific rules?" Lilliana questioned
"Nope, simple battle. Whoever knocks out first will send their team to elimination," answered Keldeo
"Fair enough,"
"Why just them?" Cream asked
"Because they seem to be fan favorites," Genesect grumbled
"Oh shut up! You always complain how you wanted to host a show," Keldeo retorted
"To the Arena!" Kavi interrupted
Arena
The arena was a classic Pokemon stadium with a battlefield that was quite huge. Seats were all around the arena that could seat thousands of spectators at once, especially a special area for announcers. The announcer box was clearly filled by Keldeo, Kavi and Genesect who would watch the battle and announce a winner. Tsunami was on one side of the arena while Lilliana was on the other side.
"This is a simple one on one fight. Loser sends their team to elimination," Kavi said once more
Both Tsunami and Lilliana nodded
"Battle Begin!"
Tsunami immediately made these hand gestures before a large number of clones appeared around the battlefield, clearly a Double Team. They all proceeded by throwing Water Shurikens at Lilliana, forcing the Servine to act. Lilliana responded with a Leaf Tornado as she spun on her back to generate the tornado, drawing the Water Shurikens in and releasing the tornado at the clones. All the clones, but one, got taken out by the attack. The last clone had to be the real Tsunami as it charged up a Night Slash attack.
Lilliana jumped up to hit it with a Leaf Blade, her tail glowing green with the grass type attack. She spun to gain momentum on her strike, allowing her to hit the Greninja right in the gut. The clone disappeared as Lilliana then looked around the battlefield to find the real Tsunami.
"Behind you," was Tsunami's voice
Lilliana tried to turn to attack but got kneed in the gut by Tsunami's glowing leg that sent her flying across the battlefield. It was a super effective hit as Lilliana felt pain course through her body.
"I though Greninja's couldn't learn High Jump Kick," Yoru commented
"They can't, that was Acrobatics," Michael pointed out
"An attack that not only is super effective against Grass and Fighting types, but it also has double the power if the user isn't holding an item," finished Skyler
"A Greninja's true strength is speed and deception so Lilliana better find out how to get around that," said Fiona as she was taking pictures
Lilliana got up from the floor after being hit with such a powerful move, her body trying to suppress the pain before it took its toll on her. She didn't get much time to relax though as Tsunami ran right at her with Night Slash. Lilliana saw what she could get to reverse this situation, running at Tsunami at full speed. Both of them jumped at one another, Tsunami slashing at Lilliana but only to find her tail wrapped around his arm before being thrown into the ground with Slam. Lilliana pressed her advantage by launching a Leaf Blade attack downwards, hitting Tsunami immediately and causing a small explosion.
Tsunami got up in a bit of pain as he was a little impressed with the tactic Lilliana used. However, he wasn't going to let her win. He immediately used Double Team again as his clones charged at her with Acrobatics, their fists and feet glowing to strike. Lilliana used Leaf Tornado again to get rid of the clones but she was immediately slashed by Tsunami with a Night Slash attack. Right after that, she was hit with Water Shuriken before she could get back up, another explosion causing the spectators to unable to see.
The explosion cleared to have Lilliana struggling to get up, her body battered and bruised with the fight. Tsunami shook his head as this wasn't a really great fight with how easy it felt to him, he expected more out of her. A blue and white glow came off of Lilliana, engulfing her body as she suddenly began to evolve. Her arms and legs were gone, her body becoming three or four times longer, her crest on her chest being more evident. Lilliana had evolved into a Serperior, but still suffered the battle damage from earlier.
"Now this got interesting," Genesect commented
"Finally someone evolves," Keldeo added
"Kick his ass!" Skyler cheered her friend on as Tsunami just had a calculating on his newly evolved opponent
Tsunami's mind began to work to find a strategy to deal with a bigger threat now, Lilliana now being even faster than before and much tougher to knock down. He didn't know if she learned any new moves to use against him but he better be careful if anything like that were to happen. She still looked pretty battered from his earlier attacks but was more refreshed.
"What did you expect out of her?" a voice in his head stated
Tsunami looked confused now as he peered around the stadium quickly to see who was talking to him, and it clearly wasn't Fiona. Her eyes were normal and not glowing blue which would indicate a Psychic ability. Who was talking in Tsunami's head then? There wasn't any other Psychic types besides the host, but this one was different. It sounded monotone, critical, and dull as if it had seen this many times. Shaking out of his puzzlement, Tsunami activated Night Slash.
What he got in response shocked him as he wasn't expecting this at all. Charging right at the Serperior, he jumped into the air to land a critical hit. Instead, a torrent of leaves shot at him, slamming into him and sending him flying into the air. The attack hurt like hell, the leaves leaving a few cuts on his body and was clearly not a Leaf Tornado. No, it was a Leaf Storm. Tsunami recovered as he landed on his feet, but fell to his knees right away due to the damage of the attack.
"Dammit," he muttered to himself
"You left yourself open to that attack,"
Tsunami muttered to himself as he felt he was going crazy, being too distracted to notice another Leaf Storm heading his way. By the time he noticed, he was hit with the same attack but this time it was stronger than before! Leaf Storm made the Pokemon weaker, not stronger. So why was it that this one hurt even more? Tsunami didn't know then as he hit the opposing fall, some rubble falling on top of him as he didn't get up for a while.
"That's it! The fight is over with Lilliana as the victor! Lunalas, you are sending someone home tonight!" Kavi announced as the Solgaleo's cheered for the victorious Lilliana
00000
"Fuck!" Tsunami slammed the desk of the confessional, a nurse treating his wounds which stung
00000
"That was unexpected but definitely amusing," Michael smiled at the loss of his teammate
00000
"Out of the team, Cream has to go. No offense, but I would rather make it farther and deal with Tongue Scarf than have our weak links costing us more challenges," said Skyler as she pressed the icon of Cream on a piece of paper
00000
"Cream has to go, sorry," shrugged Logan
00000
"I'm going to have to vote for Tsunami on this one, he did lose the challenge," Cream stated
00000
"Tsunami is voting for Cream so I might as well do so," said Jennifer as she stamped Cream's icon
00000
"Lunala's, you lost once again. Thanks to one of your overconfident teammates, if I might add," Kavi said disappointed with today
"As a result, one of you is leaving the competition. Where you will not return, EVER. The first trophy goes to Skyler," said Keldeo throwing a statue to the Scizor
"Michael," Michael didn't bother catching the cheap statue
"Logan," the Aggron caught the statue with one hand
"Jennifer," Jennifer sighed in relief upon hearing her name called
"Tsunami, Cream, both of you are here for different reasons. Cream, I really don't know why you're here but Tsunami cost his team the challenge. The one going home is..." Genesect was saying
Cream grew nervous
...
Tsunami's gaze hardened on the hosts
...
"Cream, Tsunami you're safe," Genesect finished as Cream groaned
"Aw, I wish I would've made it further," Cream said in defeat, being forced into the Rocket of Shame before being blasted away
"Another contestant is down for the count. Who will win the next challenge that we have ready? Will Tsunami have his revenge on Lilliana? Will there Lunalas stop losing? Will there be more evolutions? All those questions will be answered on the next episode of TOTAL...DRAMA...IDIOTIC ACTION!" Kavi smiled at the camera
