Chapter Ten

Roran was reading the newspaper on the dock. "Oh Crap." He said. The newspaper showed many recent Sharpedo attacks near Hanakala Island. "I hope the directors don't read this. I'll be in deep $%^& if I do." He then realizes he was on air and chucks the newspaper to the sea. "Sorry about that laddies, let's get with the show shall we?" Roran chuckles nervously trying to change the subject. "Anyways, welcome to Total Pokemon Island! Last time, I had the campers go through a long and gruesome process of facing their fears. Some were successful while some were… unsuccessful. Some had horrifying fears, and some had… less threatening fears. Especially, Hydreigon's. Heh heh." Roran cackled "In the end, it was the Zealous Zekroms who just barely claimed victory with some mentally scarred Pokemon in the process. Especially Eelektross, who I forgot about for two hours in a soundproof dark room. Ouch." Roran winced. "But, I'd say it was worth it. But in the ceremony, it was Staravia who got the boot off the island for being to gloom to do anything. So a poser. But what will happen next? Will the campers go through worse challenges than before. Will the Zekroms keep on winning? Will Eelektross press charges? I hope not." He then raises his hands out of excitement. "Find out on this episode of TOTAL POKEMON ISLAND!"

It's been days since the fear challenge, and Roran was in the kitchen lightly banging his head on the table feeling depressed.

Malik and Reuniclus were also in the kitchen. Malik was cooking breakfast while Reuniclus was reading the newspaper. Reuniclus looked up from the newspaper watching Roran banging his head on the table.

"What's wrong with him?" Reuniclus asked. "Oh him, he hasn't found any other ideas to torture the contestants after the last challenge." Malik answered flipping some pancakes. "It's just not fair." Roran whined. "Why can't I think of anything else to hurt them with. I swear that scare challenge took everything out of me."

Malik turned to Roran and gave him a sympathetic look. "Oh come one, Roran. How can you think like that." "The moment I freaked out almost all the contestants, and almost had Eelektross sue me." Roran gloomed.

"Hey, he said he wasn't pressing charges." Reuniclus pointed out. "Yeah like I said, almost." "Oh come on, I'm sure there's some way to mess with them." Reuniclus encouraged. "But, how?" Malik gave a thoughtful pose.

"Have you ever considered not giving them pain?" Roran looked at Malik with curiosity. "Keep talking." "How about you give them a challenge that requires another kind of torment. Something that doesn't involve pain, or fear." Roran widened his eyes in empathy.

"Malik, you're a goddamn genius!" "I try to be. Hey do you want butter on your pancakes?" "Yeah, make sure you double it." "Kay, what about you Reuniclus?" Malik asked. "No butter, just syrup please." Reuniclus replied returning to read his newspaper. "Okay."

00000000000000

Kadabra gave an annoyed sigh. He was playing crosswords in his cabin thinking what his next move for the competition should be. With Tyrantrum and Sylveon gone, it'll be even harder now to combat Weavile and her alliance.

Including, Bisharp when the merge happens. Not including the fact that Pokemon on his team already don't trust him. But in the end, only time will tell how he will play this game. If he has he will be ruthless to stay in this competition.

Eelektross was just cleared from the infirmary having the time of his life. That was until Greninja was coming to his direction.

"I guess all good things comes to an end." Eelektross mumbled to himself. "Hello there Eelektross." Greninja said trying to be nice. "Um, hi Greninja. What are you going to say this time? How much of a whose I was for freaking out like that?" "No, No. I-" "Or did you wanted to scold me to for crying like a baby?"

"Eelektross listen I-" "Oh I know! You wanted to tell me to go back the infirmary because that's where I belong right?"

"Eelektross listen to me!" Greninja shouted started to be angry. "Or what your going to show me where I belong!?" Eelektross said getting furious as well.

"No! Eelektross will you listen to a word I say?!" "Why should I?! Because every word you say to me is nothing, but trash talk!"

"Because, I wanted to tell you I'm sorry!" Greninja finally blurted out.

Eelektross paused for a moment to collect what Greninja said. "You said what?" Eelektross asked shocked.

"I'm… I'm sorry. For everything that I've said and done to you." Eelektross is not believe what Greninja's saying. "You… You do?" "Yeah… did you like the flowers?" "You're the one who got me the flowers?"

Greninja nodded. "Yeah. Thought it would be nice." The two just looked away from each other in their awkward moment.

"Well… I should be going now." Greninja finally said. "Yeah… me too." The two looked at each other one last time before departing from each other.

00000000000000

Eelektross: "That was… awkward."

Greninja: "Phew, I finally said it. But now it's just going to be awkward to see him... I'm so stupid."

00000000000000

Mienshao was at Bisharp's cabin trying to find the courage to talk to him after what happened last time.

"Okay Mienshao." She started talking to herself. "It's been days, since Bisharp told you he likes you. So just tell him what you feel." She takes a deep breath and knocks on the door.

Bisharp comes out of the door to see Mienshao. "Hello Bisharp. I just wanted to say-" "I'm busy." Bisharp interrupted as he left Mienshao in disbelief.

00000000000000

Mienshao: "What… does Bisharp want to avoid me. But, why?"

Bisharp: "I realized now that if things keep going the way they are, then things would go downhill for me. So I decided to avoid Mienshao at all costs. Eventually if I keep on ignoring her, then she will give up and I can focus 100% again on the million Pokedollars." Bisharp then glares at the camera. "Don't look at me like that!"

00000000000000

Pyroar was playing with yarn near her cabin letting time fly by. When she saw Absol approaching she smiled. "Absol. It's been so long since we last talked."

"Yes, I guess it has." Absol chuckled. "Hey, how you doing with Chandelure?" Pyroar asked.

"Oh it's great!" Absol responded excited. "I took your advice and we've gotten well together. We got her all joined up and-" "Wait joined up?" Pyroar interrupted. Absol widened his eyes realizes what he's just done.

00000000000000

Absol: "$%&*!"

00000000000000

"Uh, oh yeah we've been hanging around with friends and all that's what I meant! Yeah, that!" Absol blurted out panicking. Pyroar just chuckled. "Absol, there's no need to get worried. I'm a friend remember?"

Absol sighed and looked down. "Yeah I know, but it's complicated." "Okay." Absol looked up at Pyroar shocked. "Really? You're not going to ask anything about it?"

"Why would I? Obviously, you don't want to talk about it so why push any further?" Absol smiled. "Thanks."

Pyroar nodded. "Anytime." "Well let's change the topic. Are you seeing anyone?" Absol asked. Pyroar chuckled. "Not really. I'm more of a lost cause." "Oh come one, with your looks I highly doubt it.?" Absol joked.

"Well, there is one person, but I can't see it happening." "How so." "Well… this one Pokemon is really good and all, but he's already taken." "Aww, sorry there." Absol sympathized. "Thanks."

"Well, I have to get going. I'll see ya later." Absol said. "Yeah see ya." Pyroar said seeing Absol walk away. When Absol was away from hearing distance Pyroar laughed to herself.

00000000000000

Absol: "Arceus damn, that was close! Thank Arceus Pyroar didn't ask any further on my alliance. I hope it works out for her."

Pyroar: Pyroar chuckled "Thank Arceus he's so dense."

00000000000000

"Come on man, you can't hide under your bed forever." Snover pleaded. "I-I can until I get m-myself e-eliminated." Elgyem replied.

"Oh come on, so what you almost got eaten by a Gyarados?" At that comment Elgyem screamed. "S-Snover, I don't t-think you're h-helping." Elgyem sighed.

Snover sighed. "Okay then, I guess I'll tell Larvesta the news." "W-What news?" Elgyem asked. "That you're no longer interested in her." Snover replied. "W-Wait! I-I'm still i-interested!" Elgyem protested.

"Well is your fear of Gyarados going to overpower your feelings for Larvesta?" Snover challenged.

"N-NO!" Elgyem shouted before betting off from under his bed and running out of the cabin. Snover laughed to himself. "I'm so good at this." With that Snover left the cabin as well.

00000000000000

Snover: "Elgyem may be one of the underdogs of this show, but don't underestimate him when he's not afraid. Speaking of underdogs, I need to get some food ASAP!"

00000000000000

Roran grinned as he picked up Mr. Loud. "HELLO LOVELY LADDIES! WE NEED EVERYONE TO THE CENTER OF THE CAMP PRONTO!"

All Roran heard were groans from half of the cabins. Roran sighs. "I wish I didn't have to do this, but you leave me with no choice."

Roran then gets an airhorn to Mr. Loud. He fires the air horn and almost immediately all the campers rushed out, with most of them covering their ears.

"Good day everyone." Roran said innocently. "You're an ass." Gengar groaned.

"No, I'm a Zoroark silly." Roran joked. "Now, let's get on with today's challenge… Well before we do that, I would like to introduce to you all Mr. Chuckles out Mr. Mime."

The Mr. Mime known as Mr. Chuckles that scared Electrike from the last episode was dressed in a clown get up. He waved to the campers. Electrike immediately screamed and ran way. "NOOOOO! ANYTHING! ANYTHING, BUT CLOWNS!"

"Well she's out." Roran said. "But you still haven't explained the challenge yet!" Nidoqueen protested. "Yeah, don't care. My show. My rules." Roran said slyly.

"So everyone, I'm sure you've noticed the funny looking chairs behind me." Roran said, gesturing the many multi-colored chairs behind him, all in different sizes.

"Well, what are you waiting for. Go on, sit down." Roran insisted. All the campers groaned, but they all reluctantly sat down, well except for the already-eliminated Electrike.

"Okay Mr. Chuckles, take it away!" Roran said. "Okey dokey!" Mr. Chuckles said giggling. "Well guys, the goal of today's challenge not to laugh."

There was silence in response. "Say… What?" Eelektross asked. "Oh, it's simple… I do funny stuff, and you guys can't laugh!" Mr. Chuckles explained laughing. "It's easy."

"Yeah, especially when you don't give a damn about simple parlor tricks." Bisharp mumbled to himself.

"W-What happens i-if you do l-laugh?" Elgyem asked afraid of the answer. "Oh boy, I love it when they ask that. You'll find out." Roran cackled.

Roran was sitting in luxury chairs next to Malik and Reuniclus eating popcorn. "We're going to enjoy this." Roran said. "So everyone… we get ready!" Mr. Chuckles shouted. "NOW!"

There was silence again. "Well?" Aggron asked. Mr. Chuckles walked over to him, but stepped on a rake and hit himself with it.

No one said anything, but some of them grinned. "You suck." Litten said. "Oh really?" Mr. Chuckles asked. He went up to Litten and pressed a flower on his chest spraying water all over him.

Litten shrieked and flailed around at the water touching him. Seeing Litten freaking out made Elgyem and Snover both giggled.

BOING!

Elgyem and Snover were both shot out from their seats. As it turned out, all the seats had built in springs in the cushions that sent the Pokemon flying.

At the sight of them flying Gengar cackled, which caused him to be shot out as well. Now, most of the campers were not smirking trying not to laugh.

"And that is what happens when you laugh!" Mr. Chuckles said giggling. "Now that four are down. We need twenty three more to go!" .

Mr. Chuckles decided to use more tricks like juggling. He was juggling various items like bowling pins, and baseballs.

Weavile yawned. Mr. Chuckles used a rock with the items and threw at her while continuing to juggle.

Absol was able to hold back a chuckle, but Chandelure wasn't so lucky as she giggled at the sight of Weavile being hit with the rock and was sent flying away. Though, she just floated down due to her ghostly body.

Only a few campers remained to be unsmiling, including Kadabra, Aegislash, Aggron, Type: Null, and Bisharp.

While Mr. Chuckles were doing tricks, Bisharp was completely ignoring him thinking to himself. "Okay, so think of something by, while this clown is making the others laugh. Let's see what's a good memory to cling to. I could think of my times with my Uncle? No, that would bring bad memories. How about my victories in many tournaments? No that's short lived. Hmm, there is Mienshao. All the good times we have. The times she would be there for me. The enjoyment we would share. And her-Wait! What am I saying?! I'm suppose to ignore Mienshao! SNAP OUT OF IT!"

Bisharp wakes himself out of his thinking and just watched the others getting eliminated.

00000000000000

Bisharp: Bisharp is repeatedly slapping himself. *slap* "Snap." *slap* "Yourself." *slap* "Out." *slap* "Of." *slap* "It." *slap*.

00000000000000

Mr. Chuckles now decided to do a dance, but he slipped on a banana peel and fell. At the sight of him falling.

Brionne and Larvesta both laughed at this and were shot in the air. Absol was trying so hard not to laugh.

"So why did the Combusken cross the road?" Silence again. "Why?" Eelektross groaned, getting bored with this. "TO GET TO THE OTHER SIDE!" Mr. Chuckles shouted.

Once again there was silence, until Aerodactyl burst out laughing, and was sent flying as a result.

Roran looked up and saw Aerodactyl being sent towards him. "Ah $%^&." Roran groaned as he quickly moved out of the way just in time, before Aerodactyl crashed into his chair smashing it in the process.

Aerodactyl got up groaning from the pain and looked up at a livid Roran. "Heh heh, Hey there Roran." Aero chuckled nervously.

Roran just gave him a death glare. "Aero, you have ten seconds to get out of my sight before I slit your throat." Roran threatened giving a devilish voice. "1."

At one, Aero gulped and immediately flew away from him. Roran calmed down. "Reuniclus, if you would kindly?" Reuniclus nodded and aimed his arm at the broken chair. The pieces were coming back together and it looked like it was never broken.

"Thank you Reuniclus. remind me to give you a raise." Roran said. "But, I'm an unpaid intern." Reuniclus pointed out. Roran shushed him as he grinned and continued to watch the show.

Mr. Chuckles then spun around and pulled out two pies out of nowhere and threw them at Roran and Malik. Roran quickly ducked being used to this kind of action, while Malik wasn't so lucky and took it in the face.

"Hey! Don't bring us into this!" Roran ordered. Seeing their sadistic host being brought into these jokes made Ferrothorn and Hydreigon laugh and got sent to the skies.

When Malik was hit tho, Absol finally gave in, laughing hysterically. His cackles was still heard even after being launched.

Mr. Chuckles gave a look of disappointment. I'm terribly sorry." Mr. Chuckles said, reaching his hand out to Malik.

Malik huffed. "You think I'm stupid, for you to pull the old buzzer trick?" Malik asked. "Oh don't worry! It's fine!" Mr. Chuckles assured as he grabbed Malik's hand, but nothing happened.

"Huh… I guess I was wrong." Malik said. Mr. Chuckles then pulled out a rubber chicken and hit him upside the head.

Eelektross let out a snick, but realized his mistake as he was sent flying. Pyroar giggled as well, and she was sent soaring to the skies next.

Mr. Chuckles frowned as he gave Brionne a present. "I'm sorry for early. I hope you feel better soon." He said giving Brionne a balloon as well.

The balloon popped that sounded like a bomb and made Brionne freak out, yelling. Litten laughed and was sent flying as well. Then when she opened the box, the box had a punching glove and punched her in the face.

Weavile and Greninja laughed and they were both eliminated when they got out. Rufflet tried not to laugh, but he failed as well and was sent flying.

00000000000000

Litten: Litten was trying to hold his laughter. "I'm so sorry Brionne, but that was just-" He then burst out laughing again.

00000000000000

The only ones that are remaining are Aggron, Vulpix, Aegislash, Kadabra, Type: Null, Nidoqueen, Gardevoir, Bisharp, Mienshao, and Kommo-o. Mr. Chuckles was pondering. He was a bit surprised that there were so many.

"Well… Why is it that I'm not surprised to see these are the last ones?" Roran asked rhetorically. But then, Mr. Chuckles had an idea. When Weavile was lying on the ground, Mr. Chuckles offered her a hand.

When she took it she widened her eyes when she was shocked by electricity coursing through her body. Gardevoir, Nidoqueen, and Vulpix were unfortunate enough to laugh, due to them not liking Weavile.

00000000000000

Vulpix: "What? I'm not sadistic. It's just… nice to see Weavile getting just deserves." Vulpix said smiling innocently.

00000000000000

Mr. Chuckles saw the seven remaining and thought he had to pull out his trump card. "Hey Hydreigon? Can I borrow you for a second?" Mr. Chuckles asked.

Hydreigon arched his brow at him, but shrugged. "Sure… I guess." Hydreigon floated a little closer to Mr. Chuckles. "So what do you want me to do?" Hydreigon asked.

"Oh, not much…" Mr. Chuckles replied. "Except… MOONBLAST!" He shouted reading his arms looking like to charge up a Moonblast.

Hydreigon widened his in horror as he heard a fairy-type move. He screamed almost childish, flew in an astonishing rate, and hid behind Nidoqueen for protection. He waited for the attack, but it never came as he opened his eyes to see Mr. Chuckles laughing.

Soon though, almost everyone started laughing. The host and his allies, the eliminated campers, and even Aggron, Mienshao, and Kommo-o were laughing even though they were eliminated because of it.

Hydreigon scowled as he just sat there and took the embarrassment.

00000000000000

Mienshao: "I'm so sorry Hydreigon, but…" She then burst out laughing again.

Kommo-o: Kommo-o snorted. "Hey, I'm 4x weak to fairy too, but you don't see me being afraid of a Jigglypuff now."

Hydreigon: Hydreigon was rocking back and forth on the confession seat. "Why? Why does everyone torment me?"

00000000000000

Mr. Chuckles checked to see who was left and was surprised to say the least. All that were left were Kadabra, Type: Null, Aegislash, and Bisharp. So Mr. Chuckles was performing many other tricks to get them to laugh, but to no avail.

While Mr. Chuckles was trying his hardest, Bisharp proceeds to think to himself again. "Okay while the clown is doing his charade, let's try this again. Let's think of many ways to get people of the island. There's the nice ones like Ferrothorn and Nidoqueen. All I have to do is use that niceness for my advantage. Then I'm pretty sure some couples will be showing up on this show. So I'll eliminate one of them, break their hearts, and eliminate the other. Just like Dartrix and Staravia. Then my alliance members will go last as they have served their usefulness. That should be a good start to win the million."

Bisharp then turns to Mienshao and starts thinking about all the times they had. Some of them annoying, but some… some were peaceful, glee, and from a long time… Happiness.

Bisharp saw Mienshao slap Hydreigon upside on the head when he made a cocky remark, and it made Bisharp make the smallest chuckle.

BOING!

The next thing Bisharp knew he was falling to the ground by the spring chair. He looked up with widened eyes and was shocked to see he was out.

"Wow, this is surprising." Roran commented. "What the hell!?" Bisharp yelled. "Well, it seems like you laughed." Mr. Chuckles said giggling. Everyone was shocked as well that Bisharp of all Pokemon actually laughed.

"But… But that's impossible!" Bisharp roared. "Sorry that's how it works." Mr. Chuckles said. Bisharp felt mad, but for some reason he also felt calm. He couldn't explain it as he went to the others and watch what happens next.

00000000000000

Bisharp: Bisharp was pacing back and forth in the confession. "Why is it that I'm not furious that I lost? Normally, I would feel like punching a hole in a wall, but why not now? What happened that made me feel this way?" He then stopped in mid-pace and when he found his answer. "Mienshao."

00000000000000

It was not down to Kadabra, Type: Null, and Aegislash. None of them had any smirk on their face.

Kadabra folded his arms, looking bored, Aegislash's single eye didn't leave Mr. Chuckles, and Type: Null just sat there doing nothing. Mr. Chuckles was thinking of new ways to make them laugh until Absol arrived.

Apparently the Disaster Pokemon's chair was malfunctioned to launch him higher than the rest should. Malik keeps denying that he's responsible for the mishap tho. He was covered with twigs, dirt, leaves, and branches.

He was rubbing his head in pain. "Stupid overgrown monkey, using these dirty tricks to get to me." Absol snarled before falling over, exhausted.

There was silence after that until a series of chuckles was heard. Everyone turned around to see Aegislash covering his mouth to hide his smirk, laughing uncontrollably, his eye filled with amusement.

Moments later, he was shot into the sky, but was able to float to the ground unharmed. Aero and Gardevoir rushed to the Royal Sword Pokemon who was trying to control himself from the laughter. "Are you okay?" Gardevoir asked, but Aegislash was still chuckling.

"Did… Did you see the way he looked?" Aegislash manage to ask between laughs. Absol sighed. "Great. I somehow managed to make him laugh." "Yeah, you did!" Malik shouted.

"Which means the winners are Type: Null and Kadabra for the Zealous Zekroms!" The Zekroms ran over and carried Kadabra and Type: Null on their shoulders.

They marched past Aegislash, who was now recovering back to his normal self. "Ha." Kadabra said as him and Type: Null were carried off.

"Talk about being egotistical." Gardevoir scowled. "Well then, that means the lovely Respected Reshirams get to meet me and Malik at the campfire tonight!" Roran shouted filled excitement.

"And it just might be the person who screwed up their team." Malik grinned looking at the scared Absol. Absol gulped.

00000000000000

Absol: Absol's eyes were bugging out. "Crap, Crap, Crap, of $#%^ no!"

Aegislash: Aegislash was there with his arms folded behind his back as usual. "Just for your information. I didn't laugh. There was just something in my throat that's all." "He laughed, he actually laughed!" Gardevoir shouted from outside the cabin. "He actually smiled!" Chandelure said. Aegislash then picked up his shield and smacked his face with it. "I plead the fifth."

Kadabra: Kadabra smirked. "I may lack an alliance now, but that doesn't mean that I can be messed with."

Type: Null: "How was it so easy not to laugh? Simple, when you live for a very long time with torment, it becomes very easy not to laugh to simple things like parlor tricks."

Bisharp: Bisharp didn't say anything as he sat there in thought. He then takes a deep breath and leaves the confession.

00000000000000

Bisharp was thinking himself in his alliance's meeting area when the rest showed up. Hydreigon cleared his throat to get Bisharp's attention, and Bisharp turned to his fellow alliance members.

"So, who's going home now?" Kommo-o asked. "Right, of course…" Bisharp said clearing his head. "Well, the one that should be eliminated is obviously Absol." "Hmm, I got ya there, but are ya sure?" Hydreigon asked.

"I'm positive." Bisharp replied. "Absol has completely ruined the challenge for us, and could be a potential threat later on in the competition." Litten sighed. "I guess that makes sense." "Then it's settled, we shall get everyone to eliminate Absol."

They nodded as they went to the ceremony. Hydreigon turned around to Bisharp. "Are you okay? You don't seem so focused." "I'm fine. Why do you ask?" Bisharp responded. "Well… You haven't been really focused lately."

"I said I'm fine." Bisharp insisted. "Whatever, see ya at the ceremony." Hydreigon said before leaving Bisharp in thought. He took a deep breath. "I have to tell her after the ceremony."

00000000000000

The Respected Reshirams were all at the campfire for the third time. Many of them seemed nervous now. They actually didn't know who would be voted out.

"Well my lovely laddies." Roran said, with Malik on his side waiting for the person to be eliminated. "In front of me are 16 campers, but sadly I only have 15 Pokeblocks with me, and you can't share them either. So without further ado, let's get this ceremony over with!"

"Aegislash, it's no surprise that you get the first Pokeblock." Roran said. Malik tossed him a Pokeblock. "Then Aero sadly, Gardevoir, and Nidoqueen… Larvesta, Hydreigon, Mienshao… Bisharp, Ferrothorn, Rufflet… Litten, Gengar and Chandelure."

It was now down to Absol and Electrike. "So which one of you two lucky laddies will receive the last Pokeblock." Larvesta was hoping she wouldn't lose Electrike, while Aegislash and the others didn't want Absol gone. "That last Pokelock goes to

Absol."

Absol sighed with relief as he got his block, while Bisharp was surprised he was still here." Bisharp widened his eyes in shock when he heard Absol was still here.

"NOOOOOO! $%^&ING ARCEUS DAMMIT NOOOO!" Malik roared. "I SPECIFICALLY CAME HERE TO SEE THE SICKLE BASTARD GONE! AND I SEE THAT HE'S NOT!" "Awww, is the poor monkey boy sad?" Absol asked with a cocky grin. "Don't worry, I have a banana for you if you play nice."

"THAT'S IT!" Malik screamed before jumping towards Absol ready to kill him. Roran sighed. "Reuniclus, would you kindly." Reuniclus nodded and stopped Infernape midair before he could kill Absol.

""Now Malik, we can't go around killing contestants. That viewers wouldn't like that. Now, if I release you, will you promise not to kill Absol?" Roran asked.

Malik grunted. "FINE, I'M OUTA OFF HERE!" When Malik was released, he stormed away while Absol was grinning the entire time.

"So sorry Electrike, it seems because of your lack of participation in the past challenges has caused you to be eliminated." Roran said kindly. Even though Roran a sadist, he actually likes Electrike. Electrike sighed in grief. "Okay, I guess I'll pick up my things."

00000000000000

Aerodactyl: Aerodactyl looks sad. "Yo, It's sad she had to go, but we couldn't lose our friend Absol. Plus, what Roran said about her was not wrong."

Aegislash: Aegislash saluted "It's nothing personal, it just had to be done."

Bisharp: Bisharp punches a wall on the confession making a dent on it. "How is this POSSIBLE?! I made sure that everyone would vote for ABSOL! It's either my alliance is not effective, which is not possible, or… or-" Bisharp then widened his eyes in realization. "Or, there's another alliance in our team."

00000000000000

Electrike stepped out of her cabin, with her belongings. She was leaving until-

"Wait! What are you doing here?" Electrike turned around to see Snover running towards her, chocolate ice cream all over his face. "The elimination ceremony is over." Electrike responded.

"Oh it is?" Snover asked. "Well, who got eliminated?" Electrike sighed. "It was me." "Oh." Snover said sounding disappointed. "Well, I'm sorry." "No, no… it's fine." Electrike insisted. "I just came by to get my things."

"Well, I'm going to miss you." Snover said. "I mean.. You were cool, nice, and pretty too." "Pretty?" Electrike asked while laughing. Snover just nodded. "Well yeah, you were always pretty cute to me." Snover then noticed Electrike was laughing. "What's funny?"

"Nothing, I just… never expected you to be so straightforward about it." Electrike responded, while giggling and blushing. "Well, it's like my dad always say. Being straightforward will help you move forward in life. Or, I think that's how it works." Snover said thoughtfully.

Electrike let out another giggle. "Well, I think you're pretty cute too, I'm going to miss you you know." "Well, same here."

"Wait a second." Electrike said. "I think you have something on your cheek." "Oh, really?" Snover asked feeling around trying to get rid of the ice cream. "Where?"

Electrike then walked up Snover and licked it off. Snover's cheeks then got rosy in reaction. "There, I got it for ya. See ya later, Snover!" With one last laugh, she ran off, leaving Snover dazed from what happened.

00000000000000

Electrike: Electrike was still blushing from what she did earlier. "To be honest, I don't know why I did that. I guess I just wanted to do something special before I left the show. I had a great time here. I made friends with amazing people, and I got a crush that likes me back. Overall, I loved the experience here. You know, it's really hard to pick just one person to win the show. If I had to choose it would be either, Larvesta, Brionne, or Snover, I'll be happy if they do. Welp, that's it from me, thanks for having me Total Pokemon Island!"

Absol and Aegislash were watching the love struck Snover trying to get into his cabin. "Well I'll be damned. Would you look at that?" Absol asked shaking his head. "That little tree man got someone attracted to him."

"Well to be honest, he wasn't low on the list." Aegislash pointed out. "That's fair enough." Absol said. "So, is there anyone of your interest?" Aegislash asked. "Oh trust me Aegislash, let's just say there is someone that caught my eye." Absol responded.

Chandelure and Gardevoir were heading into their girl's cabin. Chandelure stopped though and winked at Absol. Absol just grinned. "Ah…" Aegislash said in realization. "Now, you can finally ogle her without it being awkward between you two."

"Like I said Aegislash, I don't ogle her." Absol protested. "Whatever you say."

"So, what about you Mr. Sword with the shield? Does that one eye see someone in interest?" Absol asked. "Oh, please. You have got to be kidding me. Relationships aren't really my strong suit." Aegislash said.

"What are you Bisharp?" Absol asked cockily. "Listen man, you're smart, you're hella strong, and you've got one of the kindest personalities on this show. And that says a lot comparing to the others, but even if you're a master planner, if the stupid love bug wants to hit you. Well, you're gonna get hit. Can't avoid that stupid bugger even if you try."

Absol waved to his pal, and walked inside, leave Aegislash on the steps. "Ha… he's crazy."

Bisharp was in a clearing on the island waiting for someone. When he heard footsteps, he turned around and saw Mienshao approaching towards him.

"Here we go." Bisharp said to himself. "You called me Bisharp?" Mienshao asked. "Yes I did. I wanted to tell you something rather important." "Okay, lay it on me." Mienshao said confidently.

Bisharp took a deep breath. "When I got eliminated from today's challenge, I felt mad, but for some reason I didn't feel as mad as I used to before."

Bisharp then started to pace back and forth. "I've been asking myself why for a long time now, but nothing seemed to make sense. That was until I realized one thing." He then stopped and turned to Mienshao. "It's because of you."

Mienshao now looked confused. "Me… Why me?" "Because of my feelings toward you." Mienshao blushed when she heard that.

"Everytime I think about the two of us, I see many memories. Some were rather annoying, but most… Most were rather somewhat pleasant, amusing… joyful. I'm… I'm starting to realize now that I just can't keep ignoring you or my feelings toward you. To be honest, I never felt anything close like this ever since my uncle and… Well what I'm trying to say is is that I want to feel like that again."

Mienshao was at a lost of words trying to process everything that was said to her. "Bisharp, I… I… I've been trying to tell you what I thought about what you said a while ago, but you never gave me the chance."

"Well, I here. What did you wanted to talk about?" Bisharp asked. "Well, after what you said, I felt conflicted… Trying to think what I felt too. And, now that you told me this, I know my answer now." "And what is your answer?" Bisharp asked arching his brow at her. Mienshao then got closer to him. "I-I feel the same way too. Bisharp."

Bisharp's eyes widened a little in shock. "Oh, wow. So does that mean?" Bisharp started. "Yes, but only if you want to." Bisharp started at the ground for a moment then looked back at the Martial Arts Pokemon. "Yes, I think it'll be nice for the both of us… to start dating."

Mienshao smiled warmly. "I would love that." An awkward silence was now happening between the two. "So…" Bisharp started. "How does to people dating work?" "Well… they go on dates, give each other cute names, gives hugs and kisses-"

Bisharp groaned when he heard the last part. "Come on, the times I hugged you weren't that bad were they?" Bisharp looked flustered when she asked that. "No." he admitted. "Then you want to try?"

Bisharp gave a short nod. "Yeah, we could have one." Mienshao smiled again and went to hug Bisharp, careful to not touch the sharp blades on his torso.

Bisharp felt uncomfortable at first, but as the hug got longer he started to like the warm embrace and tried to hug back the best way he could.

The two just stood there in each others embrace as the wind breezes through the new couple.

Roran was on the docks still cackling from the last challenge. "Oh man, that was still priceless the way Absol looked." He then looked at the camera realizing he was live and cleared his throat. "Hello there lovely laddies. Today has been very eventful hasn't it. The Zealous Zekroms actually won twice in a row! Place the bets now to see how long their streak will last. But, that wasn't the only thing that happened. Poor dear Electrike was eliminated, because she just wasn't helpful in the team since the past few challenges. So sad." Roran said looking sad, but then grinned again. "And, that's not all. My dear campers are having some romance around them. With Absol and Chandelure, and Bisharp with Mienshao. It's just too cute to watch, but at the same time very predictable." Roran cackled. "So what will happen next? Will the Zealous Zekroms earn a three on their streak? Will more couples start emerging on the show? Will Malik one day ever kill Absol? Probably, not. He's too 'mature' for such childish actions. Heh heh." He then raised his hands in the air out of excitement. "Find out next time on the next episode of TOTAL POKEMON ISLAND!"

And we have finished. Wow, I can't believe Bisharp and Mienshao actually paired up... OK, maybe a little. XD

And Electrike and Snover as well, wow I can't keep up with all of them.

But sadly Electrike just had to be eliminated, and I like the Electrike line. *Sighs*

But what will happen next when the lovely laddies don't fight, or survive but... SING! *Cues dramatic music*

Anyways with that, I'll see ya around laddies!

Electrike: Go ahead and review everyone!
