Announcer: Last time of Total Pokemon: Parafrosyni Island...the contestants participated in a relay race with Goomy as batons. The troubles between Chlotz and his team grew larger with Chase and Ace telling him the truth about Taylor. However, it would backfire with some very provocative proof from the 'girl' herself. In the challenge, Chlotz was set up to fail his team by Karen and Autumn, as he continued tripping and screwing up in the beginning. Meanwhile, the Zekroms had a pretty easy time with the challenge, passing them all with ease. Unsurprisingly, in the end, the Reshirams lost and Chlotz was eliminated.
What will happen this time around? Will the Reshirams lose again? Will Macey cause a disturbing group ritual again? And who will be eliminated this time? Find out right now on Total...Pokemon...Parafrosyni Island!

It was 4:43 in the morning when Ace felt something cold nudge him. Opening his eyes, he saw Chase smiling down at him.
He yawned and looked around, seeing that the others were asleep. Confused, he looked back up at him. "What's going on?"
"Well, I felt really bad about well...beating you up…" Chase started, looking away. "So, I wanted to make it up to you…"
Ace was shocked. He'd gotten over that weeks ago, but Chase still remembered it?
"Chase...y-you don't have t-"
Chase silenced him with a small kiss. After breaking it, Ace blushed and looked dreamily into his eyes. "I know you're gonna say I don't have to, but I want to. That was something my bitch of a sister would do…and I don't want to have that in my memory..."
Ace looked down sheepishly with a blush, making Chase chuckle. "Come on...follow me…" Chase said as he walked towards the cave opening.
Ace yawned once again before slowly getting up and stretching. He then ran after Chase. He had continued following the Flareon for almost five or seven minutes until he saw that he was leading them to a cliffside. There was an old blanket and a bunch of assorted berries near the edge as the sun peeked over the horizon.
"Tada!" Chase said, presenting it. "I decided that we should well...just have a bit of alone time like this…"
"D-Does this mean that we're...'together'?" Ace asked with a blush.
In response, got close to him. "Does this answer your question?" he asked before planting yet another kiss on his lips.
Ace blushed like mad, wrapping his paws around Chase's neck. When they broke the kiss, Ace sighed and laid his head on Chase's shoulder.
Chase chuckled. "I'll take that as a yes…"
Ace giggled and licked his cheek.
"Well, let's get this picnic started…" said Chase. "We don't want the berries to spoil…"
000
Chase: That went well...I got over my guilt and got an actual boyfriend in the process...Autumn's gotta be so jealous...
000
Ace: YES!
000
About 4 hours after their picnic and the sunrise, Chase and Ace were sleeping together in the cave, with Autumn, Karen, Tiffanie, and Taylor waking up in the meantime.
Autumn stretched with a smile before looking over to her brother and Ace.
"One useless idiot down...two more to go…" she said with a smile.
"Come on, our numbers are dwindling enough right now, so we need as many people possible."
Autumn groaned. "Fine…we'll keep the idiots…"
"Hey, Chlotz was the worse guy we had...besides Luther", Karen explained. "I'm sure we'll be fine…"
"Yes, with two useless idiots we'll be fine…"
"Autumn, they worked hard last time…" Taylor argued. "They are useful. Are you sure that it's not just your hate for Chase that's making you feel that way?"
Autumn gave no response.
"I'll take that as a yes…" Taylor whispered to himself.
"Fine, keep them in…" said Autumn. "But I guarantee that they won't do anything fucking useful…"
Karen, Tiffanie, and Taylor exchanged glances. She was really adamant about her negativity towards the two, despite them trying their best, like they were.
"Um...okay", said Tiffanie, breaking the sudden silence. "Well, I'm gonna go and get some training in and get something to eat…"
"I'll go with you…" Taylor offered. "May as well get out a bit more…"
"Oh, well okay", said Tiffanie as she and Taylor started leaving the cave.
Autumn walked to the back of the cave and sat there, looking down. Karen saw this and sighed. She floated towards her in the back, where she saw and heard sniffling. Getting closer, she saw that Autumn was crying.
Confused, she asked her what was wrong. "Autumn, are you okay?"
Autumn continued sniffling and started wiping her eyes. "Y-Yeah...I'm fine!"
"Then...why are you crying?" asked Karen.
"Because, no matter what fucking happens, my brother gets more attention, positivity, and friends than I do!" Autumn cried. "It's not fair!"
"Then...why don't you change that?" asked Karen. "No, a better question is...why do you care? You're both completely different despite being twins."
"Because, it gets really upsetting and unfair seeing him surrounded by suitors, popular people, and getting shit automatically handed to him, while I have to work my ass off to get things and go to people to talk, only to have them ignore me and walk away!"
"Oh...that's really…"
"And you want to know something else that's fucked up?!" Autumn exclaimed. "When he was 8, he got caught having sex with a few of his friends...and nobody cared at all! And right now I'm 19 and I still can't do anything with a guy without my dad scaring him away!"
Karen looked at her sympathetically.
"It's just...not fair!" Autumn cried.
"Well...things will get better, Autumn…" said Karen. "And that just means that you're more used to hard work, making you smarter and stronger…"
"No...you don't understand, he's just as smart and strong as me...and he doesn't do anything!" Autumn exclaimed.
"Whoa...okay, um...do you come off as...you know…"
"What?"
" Are you mean or show your anger around others?" asked Karen.
Autumn thought about it.
-000-
At school, a Feraligatr bumped into her accidentally.
"Excuse you…" it stated.
Autumn growled and jumped on its back and bit down hard on its shoulder, drawing blood. Suddenly, the Feraligatr screamed in pain as it drained of all of its energy.
Autumn got off of it, with others around her staring at her out of shock and fear.
-000-
She was inside of a classroom with numerous other Pokemon. They all seemed to be taking tests. One of the other students sitting next to her, an Ariados, nudged her during the test. She tried to ignore it, but it continued nudging her more and more until she couldn't take it any more.
"WHAT?!" she whisper shouted.
"Ms. Volkratus, bring up your test immediately", the Gothitelle teacher stated.
"Wha- but he-"
"No buts! You have forfeited your grade, once you bring me your test, you must leave."
Autumn growled before glaring at the Ariados, who was snickering. She grabbed onto one of its legs and threw it out of the nearby open window.
-000-
She was working with a Ninetales in building a large card castle in art class.
"Come on Elijah, we're almost done…" she stated as the Ninetales carefully placed the last cards on the very top. Just then, a Teddiursa accidentally bumped into the table the two were working on, causing their castle to collapse.
"Damn it!" Elijah exclaimed.
Autumn growled and used Seed Bomb on the unsuspecting Teddiursa, knocking it out cold…
000
"Well, yeah...but someone else always made me!" Autumn exclaimed. "I never wanted to!"
Karen sighed. "Well...I'm sorry things happened to you like that...but try to keep high hopes. Maybe things will get better…"
Autumn looked down.
000
Kaia and her alliance were at the beach once again. They were lucky to make it there, as Macey continued trying to make the guys stay back. Now that they were there, they didn't want to talk about that...at the moment.
"Man, I swear, if we keep this up, our whole team will make it to the merge!" Roscoe stated with a smile.
Jadia gave him a look.
"Well...almost our whole team…" Roscoe said sheepishly.
"Well, our team is good and we could win all of the challenges if we wanted to, but I believe that this time we should lose in order to get rid of Macey…" Kaia said whilst sitting in Jarred's lap.
"Thank you!" Jadia exclaimed out of happiness. "Finally Donny will be avenged!"
"Though there's a possibility that she'll pull the same shit and get one of us eliminated instead…" Esmeralda said.
"And thus that plan falls short…" said Jarred as he laid back against a rock.
"Well, maybe not…" said Kaia, sitting up and backing up into his lap again. "Maybe...before they gather the votes and after she's tampered with them...we change them all to her!"
"Hmm...that may work…" Roscoe said.
"It HAS to work…" Jadia growled. "I WANT THAT PUMPKIN BITCH GONE!" she exclaimed.
000
Esmeralda: Something tells me that she's not gonna be okay again until Macey's gone…
000
Alpha decided not to go to the cliff this time around, getting tired of the repetition of Sherlock following him and them arguing…
"Aw...is someone not going to do his bullshit cliff pounding?" Sherlock teased.
"What's the point?" asked Alpha. "Apparently, you can't stand to be away from me, so you follow me all the time…"
"What the-NO!" Sherlock exclaimed. "That's not the case!"
"You sure?" asked Alpha. "Because you keep saying that, yet you never disprove it…"
"I am NOT obsessed with you! I was suspicious and right! Remember, I found out your plan!"
"Um...what plan?" asked Sandra.
"I have no idea what he's talking about…" said Alpha in an apathetic manner. "I've been proven innocent, but he still thinks that I'm a bad guy…"
"Because you ARE!" Sherlock exclaimed.
"Um...Sherlock...don't you think you should calm down?" Rocky asked.
"What-I-he's planning on using gems that he finds to beat us all!" Sherlock exclaimed.
"He's. Innocent…" Sandra stated. "If anyone's been acting suspicious...it's YOU!"
"I haven't been leaving without a trace almost every morning to punch a mountain and collect gems!" Sherlock exclaimed.
"Okay, you keep bringing up gems...where the fuck are they then?" asked Sandra, folding her arms.
"How should I know?!"
"Exactly…" Alpha stated. "So...if you're done accusing me of shit, I'd like to go back and start my 'mountain pounding' again…" he said as he exited the team's shelter.
"You fucker!"
"Sherlock, why don't you just shut the fuck up and stop…" Sandra stated. "You stalking Alpha all the time isn't helping anything…"
"I'm not hurting any of you and I'm not stalking!" Sherlock exclaimed. "He is planning on doing something devious! I'm telling you!"
"Sher-"
"Whatever you say…" said Sandra. "Just know that if you keep this up, I'll tell the others that you're acting suspicious…"
"ALPHA IS THE ONE ALWAYS LEAVING!"
"And Brian is hardly ever here…" Rock added. "Look, I'm not gonna be on any sides, but I'll just say that none of this shit matters! WHAT MATTERS IS THAT WE GET RID OF MACEY!"
"...that is true…" Sherlock admitted.
Sandra laughed. "I'm not worried about her, she'll be her own downfall soon enough. We're getting rid of-"
"Macey…" Rock stated. "End. of. story!"
"Rock…" Sandra growled.
"Sand…" Rocky retorted.
"Come on, you guys are fucking safe, why are you so fucking paranoid?!"
"Because she's harassing me!" Rock exclaimed. "You're my big sister! I would think that you'd care about me!"
"I...I DO CARE!" Sandra exclaimed.
"Oh, you do?" asked Sherlock. "I would think that since you never cared about how he felt about situations…."
"FUCK YOU!"
"Hey! He's not wrong, Sandy!"
"Rock, you know that I'm only acting this way because I want to win this us, and for mom!" Sandra exclaimed. "You of all people should know why…"
Rock suddenly looked down in a slightly saddened manner. Sherlock took notice of this and started putting two and two together.
"So...I'm guessing that Sandra is adopted…" Sherlock stated.
Sandra growled. "And of course you'd put me in the negative light!" she exclaimed. "Why couldn't Rock have been adopted to you?!"
"I know these kinds of things…"
"And how exactly is being adopted being put in the negative light?" asked Rock, folding his arms.
"Look, let's just fucking drop it", Sandra demanded. "Yes, I was adopted by OUR mom...and now I want to win for her. Deal with it…"
Rock sighed softly. "Can you please just help us get rid of Macey first? For me?"
Sandra sighed. "Fine…we'll get rid of the psycho…"
Rocky smiled before picking her up and hugging her. "Thanks…"
Sandra sighed to herself and accepted the hug.
000
Sandra: Okay...we'll get rid of fucking Macey, but then it's back to business!
000
Tiffanie was picking up berries with Taylor in the forest.
"So, um...how are things with Rex?"
"Oh, um...things are fine…" Taylor said, sheepishly.
"You still okay with Chlotz being eliminated?" she asked, picking up a Pecha Berry.
Taylor sighed. "I was still a bit sad at first...but Rex helped me get over it…" he said with a bit of seduction.
"Oh...so that's what that noise was last night…"
"Wait...were we that loud?" he asked with a fake blush.
"Sorta…" Tiffanie said. "It's not that big of a deal, though…"
"Oh, um...thanks…" Taylor stated before picking up numerous berries with his pink fringes. "So...um...are you thinking about anyone special?"
"Well...no", said Tiffanie. "I'm focusing more on the game. Though, some of the girls here are cute…"
"Oh...alright. Nothing wrong with that.." said Taylor. "Looks like I'll have to get rid of you next, though…"
"Thanks…" Tiffanie replied, picking up her bag. "Well, I think that we're good…"
"Oh?" asked Taylor, putting a few berries down. "Okay, let's head back…then, we can start training…"
"Right…" said Tiffanie as she and Taylor started making their way back to their cave.
000
Taylor: Yes, Tiffanie is the strongest one on the team moral-wise and sense wise, so I have to get rid of her in order to guarantee more losses…
As for Rex...I may keep him for a real boyfriend if he keeps up the good work. Then again, most likely I won't if he finds out.
000
Brian was sleeping in a chair inside of his "evil lair". While he did so, Macey frowned as she appeared next to him.
She growled to herself. "BRIAN!"
The sudden outburst at close range startled the Reuniclus and made him jump out of his chair.
"Ugh...WHAT WAS THE MEANING OF DISRUPTING MY SLUMBER!?" Brian asked dramatically. "I was having a wonderful dream about world domination!"
"My ray doesn't work anymore!" Macey exclaimed, grabbing him angrily. "You have to fix it!"
"Um...evil will no longer take orders from his ASSISTANT!" Brian growled, pushing her away and dusting himself off. "I will be doing my own inventions from now on…"
"NO!" Macey exclaimed. "You are going to fix my ray NOW!"
"...I refuse!"
Macey growled and used Shadow Ball, knocking Brian against the wall. Once he hit the wall, his computers all fell on him, making him groan.
"NOW!" Macey growled, folding her arms.
Getting no response, she growled and threw all of the computers behind her, only to reveal that the Multiplying Pokemon wasn't there.
"What the-"
-000-
Brian was panting back at his team's shelter, where everyone, minus Alpha had gathered back to, coincidentally.
"Oh, if it isn't 'The Evil Idiot'…" Sandra spat. "How nice of you to be here for once…"
"Quiet girl, just find me a place to hide!"
"Hide?" Roscoe asked. "Hide from what?"
"Besides, I thought you feared nothing…" Kaia added.
"Quiet! My assistant has gone crazy!" Brian explained. "She demands that I fix her ray of same gender affection!"
"Wait...she wants you to fix her GAY GUN?!" Jarred exclaimed.
"Yes, I just said that!"
"And why should we help you?" asked Sandra. "What have you done for this team besides be annoying as fuck?"
"So...you're okay with me fixing her ray and...possibly...ruining relationships…" he stated before realizing what he was saying. He grew a smile. "On second that...that's extremely evil."
"Brian…" Jadia growled.
"Ugh, just hide behind Rock's back…" said Sherlock. "Besides, as long as the protect I have on all of our brains is still active, we'll be perfectly fine…"
"No, my mind has been made up! Evil shall triumph!"
"If you do that, evil will get his body dissolved and his brain split in two...THEN eliminated…" Kaia threatened.
Brian paled before teleporting behind Rock.
Macey teleported into the shelter with a fake smile. "Hey guys…" she said with a pinch of seductiveness. "Have you seen Brian?"
"Why do you want him?" asked Esmeralda.
"Oh, just need to talk to him about something…" Macey stated vaguely.
"Well, we haven't seen him."
Suddenly, a sneeze was heard, causing suspicion for Macey, as no one moved. She knew what was going on.
"Oh, well...okay", said Macey said, still suspicious. She left the shelter.
"Alright, Brian she's-" started Rock, before being shushed by Sherlock.
"What?" he asked.
"It's an old trick. They pretend to leave and just stand beside the door to listen and then-"
"I KNEW IT!" Macey exclaimed as she made herself visible as she floated, eyeing Brian.
"Macey, we're not gonna let you make us do your fantasy shit again!" Jarred exclaimed.
"Oh please, you don't know what you want! ONLY I KNOW!" she screamed maniacally. "And soon all of the guys on this island will be love puppets...and you'll do whatever I tell you to do to each other…FOREEEEEEVEEEERRRRR", she said creepily.
"Mother of Arceus, she's insane!" Kaia exclaimed.
"CAMPERS! MAKE YOUR WAY TO THE MEETING AREA! IT'S CHALLENGE TIME!"
"She you guys at the challenge…" Macey stated with a smile.
Everyone exchanged disturbed and nervous looks.
000
Everyone made their way to the meeting area, where they found both Mew and Victini wearing gas masks. They all sat in their respective bleachers.
"Um...what the hell are you two wearing?" Taylor asked with a slight giggle.
Victini took out a thin, pen-like button. A hissing sound was heard and pink gas started emerging from their bleachers.
"What the hell is going-" Tiffanie started before losing consciousness. Everyone fell asleep immediately because of the gas.
Mew and Victini both smiled.
000
Everyone was lying down inside of a large hole and it was now very dark outside. After a few minutes, some of them began to stir and regain consciousness.
"Ugh...what just happened?" Esmeralda asked as she woke up next to Roscoe.
"I'm not sure…" said Alpha. "But maybe we were KNOCKED OUT FROM THE GAS!"
"Hey, you don't have to yell…" Roscoe stated, giving him a look as he got up and stretched.
Alpha rolled his eyes. Kaia moved a bit before opening her eyes and looking around. She immediately gained a smile upon seeing that she was sleeping against Jarred and he was bringing her close. However, that was short lived, as she saw Sandra on Jarred's other side. She growled inwardly before taking a breath.
"You're not together...calm the fuck down and focus on the game…" she told herself mentally.
She breathed out before shaking him, waking him up. As others began waking up as well, they all began pondering the same thing: WHY WERE THEY IN A HOLE?!
"Um...is it seriously night time again?" asked Chase, looking up and seeing a dark sky.
"YES IT IS!" they all heard from above, startling them.
Everyone looked up and just barely saw Mew and Victini near the hole entrance.
"Alright ass one and ass two, what the hell is going on?!" Sandra asked.
"Your next challenge of course!" Victini stated.
"Of course…." Taylor muttered.
"Now, this challenge will be a scavenger hunt!" Mew said.
"WHY IS IT NIGHT TIME?!" Rocky asked.
"To make it difficult for you to find the items", said Victini stated simply.
"You suck!"
"And you swallow!" Victini retorted.
"Now, down there next to you, you will find duffel bags", Mew explained as Tiffanie and Sherlock looked around and each found bags for their team. "Inside of the duffel bags, you will find flashlights and the list with what you need to find."
Autumn grabbed one of the flashlights and turned it on. The light shined for a few seconds before flickering off. She growled while looking up at them.
"Yeah...while you're hunting for those items on the list, you may want to find some loose batteries as well...especially because of...the other thing."
"...Um...what other thing?" asked Jadia.
"Well...we're not gonna spoil it for you…" said Mew. "But, we will say that keeping light with you at all times would be the best thing…."
"Oh boy…this is going to be shit…" Jarred stated.
"It sure is…" said Victini. "The team that find all of their items first will win. You all may start...NOW!"
"Wait, how the hell do we get out of here?!" Karen asked.
"FIGURE IT OUT!"
000
"Okay...so this is easy…" said Ace. "We can just-"
"-use Rex to get out of here…" Karen finished. "Yeah…obvious."
Chase growled a bit, but shook it off.
"Come on, let's go!" Tiffanie said as Rex formed a bridge from the bottom of the hole to the top.
"Pick up the pace! The other team is already gone!" Autumn exclaimed.
"They have a combined number of four Psychic and Ghost-types!" Chase exclaimed. "And you want to know something ironic, WE HAD FOUR AS WELL! BUT TWO WERE ELIMINATED!"
"SHUT UP, CHASE! GET YOUR STUPID BOYFRIEND AND COME ON!" Autumn exclaimed before running up Rex's body after Tiffanie and Karen.
Chase growled angrily.
000
Chase: Okay, call me crazy, but I think that being in an another actual relationship has made me...more caring and anger prone…
Fuck…
000
"Okay…everyone take a flashlight…" Kaia stated as everyone reached inside of the bag, each of them pulling out their own flashlight.
"Now, looks like we just have to find five things…" said Sherlock, looking at the list. "A bag of stale potato chips, a lava rock, a bucket of scalding water, a maple leaf, and...a tire..."
"Well, this is going to be stupid…" Sandra stated. "Especially since those items are completely random."
"And not to mention that it's still dark…" Roscoe added. "Well, not counting the moonlight…"
"Yeah...it...really is bright...and beautiful…" Esmeralda said before looking lovingly at Roscoe. Roscoe reciprocated the look and they were about to kiss when-
"Um...excuse me, but last time I checked, we have a challenge. This is not the time for making babies!" Alpha stated.
"Aww...someone's jealous that others actually have a relationship…" Sherlock quipped.
"Meanwhile, you like me, so…"
"NO I DO-"
"LISTEN!" Jarred exclaimed. "If we want to win again, we have to focus! Being uncoordinated and arguing is what the other team is supposed to be doing!"
"He's right!" Kaia and Sandra said simultaneously, causing them to growl at each other.
Jarred got between them immediately, giving them both a serious look, making them blush and turn away from each other. He groaned. "Okay, let's just do this, because I think the other team is somehow already ahead; Brian, Sherlock, and Alpha, you guys look for the maple leaf, Rocky and Sandra, you guys look for the lava rock, Roscoe, Essie, Kaia, Jadia, and I will go to the junkyard and find the tire and chips, and Macey...you just get the water."
Macey scoffed. "And WHY am I by myself?!"
"Because no one trusts you", Alpha stated plainly.
Macey growled.
000
Macey: BRIAN IS GOING TO FIX MY RAY! NO MATTER WHAT!
000
Kaia: Having Jarred actually take charge and succeed is so...sexy. Grrrr….FOCUS! DAMN IT!
000
"Alright, we have to find a box cutter, a DeepSeaTooth, a heart-shaped rock, a pillow, and an...Oh-cuh-rye-nuh…"
"It's pronounced Ocarina…" Chase stated.
"Okay, so I take it that you know what it is…" said Karen.
"Yeah…"
"Well if that's the case, you can go look for it…" said Tiffanie.
"Happily…" Chase said as he started leaving. "Come on, Ace…"
"Whoa, hold on there…" Autumn said. "There are five objects and seven of us, what makes you think you two are gonna be together?"
"Um...considering that the two of us, and the two of them…" Chase said, pointing to Rex and Taylor, "...are in relationships, it makes sense that we go together...and the three of you go alone…"
"Um...and since WHEN are you two in a relationship?!" Autumn exclaimed.
"Since this morning...bitch", Chase said with a toothy grin.
Autumn growled.
"Well...congrats...I guess…" Rex stated.
"Thanks", said Ace. "Now, uh...let's get going…" he said, nudging Chase.
"Yeah, we may want to go before she explodes from jealousy...:" Chase teased before he and Ace left.
"Yeah, Rex and I are gonna go, too…" Taylor stated. "We're gonna go find the DeepSeaTooth."
The two of them started leaving as well, leaving the three girls alone.
"Well, looks like we're the only ones who aren't gonna be distracted…" said Karen.
"If we lose, Ace goes", Autumn growled.
"Um...why?" asked Tiffanie.
"BECAUSE I SAID SO!" Autumn exclaimed, making her take one step back. Karen came around and whispered what happened in the morning in her 'ear'.
"Oh...um...okay?" Tiffanie stated.
Autumn growled softly before walking away. "I'm looking for the pillow!"
"Damn it!" Karen cursed. "Well, I'll look for the rock…"
"Which means, I have to find the box cutter…" Tiffanie concluded. "Easy enough…"
000
"I still can't believe that we have to search for a MAPLE LEAF while it is dark as hell out here!" Alpha groaned as he shined his flashlight around with his kinesis.
"Hey, you realize that we can just teleport it to us and they'll be none the wiser…" Sherlock whispered.
"THANKS FOR REMINDING US SHERLOCK! NO TELEPORTATION OF OBJECTS IS ALLOWED OR YOU WILL FACE INSTANT DISQUALIFICATION!"
"...Nice job, dumbass…"
Sherlock growled at him.
"Simpletons, out of the way!" Brian said, going past them. "We must be on the lookout for my crazy assistant!"
"Um...excuse me Professor Doof…" Alpha growled. "But we have better things to worry about than psycho girl…"
A loud, deep growl echoed throughout the forest.
"Like THAT!"
"Please, the pain that I can inflict is much more hurtful and evil than that of the growling creature…" Brian said, cockily folding his arms.
The growl was much louder this time, startling the Reuniclus and causing him to hide behind Sherlock.
"You were saying…?"
"Let's just find this fucking maple leaf and get on with our lives…" said Sherlock.
"You have a life?" Alpha asked sarcastically.
Sherlock glared at him. "Shut up."
They continued walking through the forest with their flashlights shining. Little did they notice that they were being stalked by a dark figure. It growled angrily at seeing the light and disappeared.
"I still don't see the difficulty of this challenge…" said Alpha. "Other than it being dark as fuck, all we have to do is go to the corner of the island that's hot as hell, here, and the junkyard! It's like they weren't even trying when they came up with this…"
"Remember that they added some kind of challenge with these flashlights…"
"Lame…" Alpha stated, rolling his eyes.
"Maybe if you had an open mind, then it-" Sherlock started before his flashlight started flickering. "No...no, no, no…" It finally turned off, causing Alpha to snicker.
"Aw...tough luck 'brainiac'..." Alpha quipped. "Better find some batteries fast…"
Sherlock growled. "No way! I don't know what's out there! I'll have to stay with you two…"
"Oh goody…" Brian said sheepishly before his flashlight started flickering. "Um...evil COMMANDS you to stop your flickering!"
The flashlight turned off immediately. "Mother…."
"Of course…" Alpha groaned. "Come on Things 1 and 2…"
Sherlock folded his arms out of anger, but nevertheless, followed the metal spider. Brian followed behind while shaking his flashlight.
000
Taylor and Rex had made it to the beach, with Taylor holding both of the flashlights due to Rex's lack of arms.
"So, I take it that you're gonna search underwater…" Rex said.
"Yeah…" Taylor said. "Unless...you want a bit of pain by sinking to the bottom…."
"WOO-HOO!" Rex exclaimed as he dove underwater.
Taylor smirked deviously.
000
Taylor: I am loving Rex more and more...it'll be sad when I have to dispose of him, but it'll be fun while it lasts.
000
Taylor started searching around for a DeepSeaTooth in the sand. While he searched,he used his tail to sift through the sand.
While he sifted, he found a dark black rock sitting atop a star-like symbol engraved in the land. Curious, he put one flashlight in his other extension and picked up the rock. The symbol flashed red, but Taylor did not notice.
He inspected the rock before shrugging and tossing it in the water. An extremely low hiss was barely heard across the entire island for two seconds.
Taylor continued searching, but then he remembered that he was trying to make his team lose. He decided to stop his search and he went back to where Rex dove into the water. He laid down in the sand and turned off the flashlights, as the moonlight illuminated everything good enough.
Rex miraculously emerged from the water and laid in the sand, panting.
"So...did you find it?" Taylor asked seductively.
"No…." Rex said, looking down. "Sorry...and um….why did you turn off the flashlights?"
"Oh...I just thought that the moonlight would provide as much as light as we needed…" Taylor said, coiling his tail around Rex's.
"Um...babe, don't you think we should focus on the challenge this time?" asked Rex. You know, just to be on the safe side…"
"If we lose, they're getting rid of either Chase or Ace...don't start getting paranoid…" Taylor said, kissing him.
Rex sighed.
000
Rex: Don't get me wrong, being with Taylor is fucking amazing. But, her constantly wanting to lose is getting annoying. Instead of being at eliminations, I COULD BE BOILING MYSELF IN THE HOT WATER CORNER OF THE ISLAND!
I get too tired after challenges and I'd like to just feel another pain to counter the other. It may not make sense, but I don't fucking care.
000
"Alright, where the hell are we supposed to find a lava rock?" Sandra asked herself.
"Most likely we'll find it at a volcano or at the hot section of the island…"
"Well, there are no volcanoes around here, so hot corner it is…" said Sandra as they started making their way towards that area.
Rock kept hearing rustling and small noises, scaring him a bit as he continued going with Sandra. He shined his flashlight every time he heard a noise near him, which annoyed Sandra, as he occasionally shined it at her while she shined hers forward.
"Rock, STOP!" Sandra exclaimed, startling him.
"S-Sorry…." he said. "I just have a really bad feeling…"
"You always have a bad feeling…" Sandra retorted. "Just calm down."
"They said that we have to keep light on us at all times for safety! I don't know what's gonna happen!"
"Neither do I, but do you see me freaking out and using up all of the flashlight's remaining battery?"
Hearing this, Rock immediately turned off the flashlight and stuck closer to Sandra, putting her on his head.
"Huh...we should've did this in the first place…" Sandra said as they continued towards the hot corner.
Quick footsteps and rustling was heard, causing Rocky to look to the side quickly.
"Rock...what did I just say?" asked Sandra.
"Look Sandy, I am bit more concerned about our safety than finding some goddamn rock…." Rocky explained.
Sandra groaned. "We're almost where we need to be, and I think my flashlight is about to die, so I'm going to turn it off-"
"WHAT?!"
"CALM DOWN!" Sandra exclaimed. "We're almost there like I said…so just keep going forward. And who's to say you can't fight off whatever is supposedly following all of us?"
"Well...I guess you're right."
"I know I'm right, now come on…"
-000-
They made it to the hot corner of the island, which stayed excruciatingly hot even when it was night time, apparently.
"Whew...this is...a bit too hot…" Rock as he started sweating.
"Heh, it feels alright to me…" said Sandra. "So now we have to find a lava rock…"
"Well, unless there's a cave around, I doubt that we'll be able to find one…"
"Well luckily, there's a small cave over there…" Sandra said, pointing to a cave hiding behind a few trees.
"Oh boy…" Rock groaned.
"Come on big guy…" she said as she started walking towards it. Rock rolled his eyes before following.

Chase and Ace were at the junkyard looking for an Ocarina. Ace held both flashlights while Chase rummaged through the trash.
While happy about their new relationship, Ace felt a bit uncomfortable and nervous about Chase and Autumn's interactions.
"Um...Chase?" he asked.
"Yeah?" he responded as he picked up a brown bag and dumped out its contents.
"Do you think that Autumn will ever accept our relationship?"
"Not until she gets a boyfriend of her own…" Chase explained. "Whenever I date someone, she hates that person's guts and tries to ruin our relationship just because her daddy is overprotective and she scares guys away…"
"We keep hearing about her dad and how he's crazy and stuff...but is he really?" asked Ace.
"He once ripped off a Machamp's arm and ate it while it bled out…" Chase stated simply.
Ace paled. "Okay...that's…"
"Crazy, exactly", Chase finished. "So, don't worry babe, she always fails. And if she ever tries fucking with you, just ignore her…"
"B-But what if she hurts me?"
Chase chuckled before giving him a peck on the lips. "You'll be fine…"
Ace blushed before licking Chase's nose. "Thanks for the reassurance…"
"No prob…" Chase replied. "Now, let's keep looking for this stupid Ocarina…"
"How do we even know that one's here?" asked Ace. "We'd have a better time finding a box cut-OW!"
Ace whimpered and dropped both flashlights as he lifted his paw and saw a bloody gash underneath it. Hearing this, Chase immediately brought him close and started licking his paw in order to clean it.
"Arceus damn it! That burns!" Ace cursed.
"What stabbed you anyway?" Chase asked.
"I don't know…" Ace said as he looked back on the ground.
Chase looked back and looked down to see a blade slightly protruding from the pile. "What the-"
He dug out the blade and saw that it was a box cutter.
"Hey, the box cutter!" Chase acknowledged. "Looks like you were right…"
Getting no reply, Chase turned around and saw that he was alone. "A-Ace? ACE?!"
Still getting no reply, he groaned and saw the flashlights on the ground, both off. "Shit!"
000
Jarred, Kaia, Jadia, Esmeralda, and Roscoe were in the junkyard as well, but in another part of it.
"Okay, so a tire and some chips…" Jadia stated. "Probably going to be the easiest things to find…"
"Yep…" Jarred said in agreement. "So, we'd better get down to it and get it over with."
"And when we find anything, we come back here and wait, alright?" Kaia added.
"But...what if our flashlights go out after we find an item or WHILE we find an item?" asked Esmeralda.
"Well, for all we know, they could just be lying to us about there being another thing…" Jarred presumed.
"What if they're not, though?" asked Jadia.
Jarred rubbed the back of his head before sighing. "Well, I don't know in that case."
"Hopefully whatever it is can be fought off, giving us time to escape…" Kaia added.
"Well, let's keep those hopes high…" said Roscoe. "Now, let's get going."
-000-
Kaia was following Jarred, who seemed to be knowing where he was going. While walking with him and keeping her flashlight on, she was thinking about Sandra and how he probably feels about the situation now. Sure, she told him that they couldn't get together until the game was over, but did that mean that he was losing a bit of interest?
They were approaching an abnormal pile of trash when she decided to ask.
"Um...Jarred?"
"Yeah?"
"...Well...I was wondering if you were still...y'know, interested in me…" Kaia said as they stopped outside of the trash pile.
Jarred chuckled. "Any reason you're asking me this?"
"Um…" Kaia started, blushing. "Just curious…"
"You sure you're not nervous about Sandy?"
"SANDY?!" she growled through gritted teeth.
"Hey, I guess you are…" he stated with a smirk.
Kaia realized what she'd done and punched him in the arm. "Look, I said that we weren't going to be together until the game ended, but Sandra is getting on my nerves on how close she keeps getting to you. So, I just wanted to know if you still liked me and are still willing to date later…"
"If I didn't like you, why would the two of us be alone right now…" he laughed as he walked around the pile.
Kaia smiled and wagged her tail out of happiness before following him. She stopped upon seeing that he wasn't there.
"Um...Jarred?" she asked nervously. "Jarred, don't you try to scare me! It won't work..."
Suddenly, she heard a knock behind her and she saw a door against the pile.
"What the hell?" she asked herself. She heard more knocking before moving back. "I've seen enough movies to know that when shit like that happens, there's something scary behind it…"
The door opened, revealing Jarred inside of a tunnel-like area.
"What the-"
"Welcome to The Pad!" Jarred said as he reached to the side and pulled out a bag of stale chips. "Chips?"
Kaia slowly made her way towards the entrance, dropping her flashlight upon seeing light already inside of the place. "What is this place?"
"A friend's old crib…" said Jarred as he followed her back in before running forward and jumping on the couch.
"And who was this friend?"
"Luther...from the other team", he said with a sigh.
"Oh, so this is where you guys went…" said Kaia. "Well, for a house of junk, this is kinda cool…besides the smell."
"It takes a while to get used to…" Jarred explained as he sprawled out on the couch and turned on the television.
"And now back to-"
"Jarred, don't you think we should go back and check on the others before we 'relax'?" Kaia asked, folding her arms.
"Oh...right", Jarred said. "I should also mention that there's a tire hanging from the ceiling for decoration…"
Kaia looked up and saw that a tire was suspended from the ceiling by a rope. "Huh, well...I guess if they haven't found anything, we can just bring them here and we can hang out until the other team loses…"
"Well, considering that we have to worry about our own teammates as well, I don't think we should have a whole lot of confidence until we're sure."
"Whatever…" Kaia said.
-000-
"Ugh...how is there a junkyard with no junk cars?!" Esmeralda asked.
"I don't know, bu-" Jadia started before her flashlight turned off. "Oh no…"
"Hey, don't worry, we still have ours…" Roscoe said, pulling out his. He attempted to turn it on, put it didn't work. He continued trying and shook it before laughing sheepishly.
"Yeah, we're screwed."
"Well, maybe we're not...maybe they were lying…"
A menacing growl was heard as a dark figure appeared before them. Its piercing red eyes paralyzing them with fear.
"Fucking shit…"
000
"This fucking sucks…" Karen growled as she looked around the cave she and her team slept inside. "They seriously expect me to keep a flashlight on while searching for a rock that looks like a heart?!"
She had been searching for the last thirty minutes in that exact same cave with no results.
"Where the hell do I look now?" she asked herself.
She floated out of the cave and started a search for another cave or another rocky area.
"Wait a second...Rex's hole!" Karen realized before leaving the cave. She turned back around and went deep into the there, she sighed before looking down in Rex's sleeping quarters.
"Now...let's enter this stupid hole…"
She started floating down the hole, looking on the sides for any loose rocks that may resemble a heart. Upon only five minutes, she made it to the bottom with no sight of heart-shaped rocks.
She groaned, before looking around and seeing that there were two different underground tunnels going in opposite directions.
"Whoa...huh, maybe I can find it now...in about 2 days!" she exclaimed, causing it to echo.
"Which way do I go?" she asked herself. She began going to the right, but once she heard a growl, she quickly changed her mind and floated to the left side quickly.
She continued looking back as she floated forward, not caring about the challenge as she saw a dark figure running behind her extremely quick.
The growling got louder until she finally turned a small corner and stayed inside of an alley-like area. The figure passed by her quickly, allowing her to sigh softly.
She turned around and looked down, coincidentally finding the heart-shaped rock. Karen sighed. "Of course...and now when I turn back around, it's gonna be behind me."
"That's...correct."
Karen turned back around and met blood red eyes.
"Fuck my life…"

"Ugh...this is gonna take forever…" Sherlock said, crumpling up another leaf while Alpha shined the flashlight on him.
"Hey, you don't see the evil idiot complaining…" Alpha stated, motioning to Brian.
"Um...he's not even there!" Sherlock exclaimed.
Alpha actually turned to the side and saw that the Reuniclus was actually gone. "Huh...no wonder I only felt a pang of annoyance dissipate…"
Sherlock growled.
"Okay, your growling is becoming iffy", Alpha stated. "Are you turned on or are you angry, 'cause it's hard to tell…"
"I would kill you right now if I had the chance!" Sherlock exclaimed.
"Angry it is…" Alpha deduced. "Anyways, back to work!"
"I am not your servant!"
"Excuse me, but you seem to be forgetting that I'm the one with the flashlight that's still working, so...I have the power over you, figuratively and literally…"
Suddenly the flashlight fizzled out, making Sherlock smile and fold his arms. "What now, spiderbitch?"
Alpha reached into some bushes and pulled out two batteries, causing Sherlock to twitch.
"H-How did you-"
"Coincidences for the win…" Alpha said, taking out the batteries in the old flashlight and putting in a new one. He then began shining the flashlight back on Sherlock. "Now...I say again, back to work."
Sherlock scoffed.
"You wanna lose and have the team blame you?" asked Alpha.
"YOU'RE NOT EVEN HELPING!"
"But, I'm the one keeping us safe. I don't know what the hell Brian did...but he wasn't close enough to us…"
Sherlock sat back on the ground grumpily and moved a pile of fallen leaves to himself. Alpha laughed to himself.
000
Alpha: He's so pathetic…
000
Brian was struggling inside of his 'lair', bound by rope that was glowing purple.
"Assistant! I demand you release-"
Macey smacked him harshly, making him wince.
"Hey, t-that hurt…"
"Get this through your head…" Macey growled, getting in his face, causing him to gulp. "I AM NOT YOUR ASSISTANT! YOU ARE NOT THE BOSS OF ME! AND IF YOU DON'T DO WHAT I FUCKING SAY, YOUR HEAD IS GOING TO BE MISSING!"
"...E-Evil uses Shadow Ball!" Brian used Shadow Ball on Macey, knocking her against the wall.
The Gourgeist growled before standing back up and glaring at him. "Big..mistake!"
Brian squeaked out in fear.
000
Tiffanie was looking around the junkyard for a box cutter. She had been there since Chase and Ace went there and had been looking ever since.
However, she wasn't having any luck, especially since her flashlight was dead.
"Man this fucking sucks…" said Tiffanie, looking up at the moon.
She started walking around and searching the various piles of trash for a box cutter when she ran into-
"Oof!" Chase grunted as he saw who he bumped into. "Tiff! Have you seen Ace?!"
"Well, no-" Tiffanie started. "Have you seen a box cutter?"
"Yeah, one stabbed him in the paw before he disappeared!"
"What?! You didn't get it?!"
"They said FIND not retrieve…"
"I think it's implied that we-"
"Lose?"
The two heard the dark voice and immediately paled. However, Chase felt something familiar about the voice.
000
"A little help here?" Rocky asked as he tried lifting a boulder as Sandra stood nearby shining the flashlight at him. It was hot inside of the cave, causing them both to have slight headaches and start sweating.
"Help with what?" Sandra asked. "You're stronger than me!"
"I can't really pick this up and it's extremely hot!" Rock said through grit teeth.
"Well what do you expect me to do?" Sandra asked. "Especially since this flashlight is our safety...AND CLOSE TO DYING!"
Rocky blew on his hands to cool them off. "Dig a hole down under it or something. There's something extremely hot behind it and I think it'll help us win!"
"Ugh...fine", said Sandra. "Here-" she said, tossing him the flashlight. She walked towards the boulder and started digging down underneath it.
She made it on the other side of the rock and felt a lot more heat. She looked and saw that a rock was glowing and had a lava-like fluid floating around inside of it.
She smiled before hesitantly approaching it and touching it, only to feel a burning sensation, causing her to jerk her hand back.
"How the hell do they expect us to-"
"SANDRA!"
Hearing that scream triggered her protective nature over Rocky. She rushed back to the other side, leaving the rock behind. Once she was back, she saw that Rocky was gone and that the flashlight was off.
She growled in annoyance before picking up the flashlight and attempting to turn it on; it didn't work.
"DAMN IT!"
Just then, the figure appeared at the opening of the cave, causing Sandra to glare at it.
"Alright you piece of shit, WHERE'S MY BROTHER?!"
Suddenly, it disappeared, making her hesitant. She felt breathing down her neck and growled.

Taylor and Rex panted next to each other.
"Never thought...doing it this late...would be this great!" Taylor stated as he kissed Rex's cheek.
"Yeh...heh heh", Rex chuckled nervously. "So, um...you're on birth control or something, right?"
"Birth contr-" Taylor started before remembering that he was still pretending to be a female. "Oh, well...no, but don't worry. I can't get pregnant!"
"Oh?"
"Nope, apparently my asshole dad didn't want any chance of his precious little angel getting pregnant at all", Taylor lied.
"Whoa...that's rough…" Rex said.
"Yeah, but I've gotten over it…" Taylor continued. "So, don't you worry…"
Rex nodded before looking down towards his tail and seeing something white near it. Confused, he went towards it and saw that it was DeepSeaTooth.
"What the-it's the tooth!" Rex exclaimed with a smile.
Taylor's eyes widened and his left eye twitched. "Great…" he said through grit teeth.
000
Taylor: GODDAMNIT!
000
"Okay, I have a feeling that the others were caught…" said Jarred as he and Kaia exited the junkyard with their items. Both were tired, dirty, and their flashlight was flickering on and off. Jarred held the tire on his shoulder.
"Yeah...what was your first clue?" Kaia asked sarcastically, while holding the chips.
Jarred gave her a look. "Let's just see if anyone else is still around…"
"Um...the chances of that are unlikely-"
"What the hell are the two of you doing?" they both heard before looking to the side and seeing Alpha and Sherlock approaching them.
Jarred smirked at Kaia. "Unlikely, huh?"
Kaia blushed and smiled sheepishly.
"No time for your bullshit flirting…" Alpha stated. "How many things have we found?"
"Well, we have the tire and chips, what the hell do you have?" asked Kaia.
Sherlock held up a single maple leaf with an agitated look. "After so...many...leaves!"
"Oh suck it up…" said Alpha. "It wasn't that bad…"
"Um Alpha, what exactly did you do?"
"NOTHING!" Sherlock exclaimed.
"If keeping you protected with the light counts as doing nothing, then yes, I did nothing…"
"Wait, your flashlight is still good?!"
"Of course…" Alpha said matter-of-factly. "They said be on the lookout for batteries and I was. I'm guessing you idiots weren't…"
"Call us idiots if you want, but we found two items, while you only found one", Jarred retorted. "And where's Brian?"
"Yeah...a tire and a bag of chips in a JUNKYARD, that was really difficult…" Alpha stated. "And I don't know where that moron went...I had the flashlight with us the whole time…"
"Well, now we have to see if the lava rock and hot water is found…"
"If they were, don't you think we would've won by now?" Alpha asked with a blank look.
"Well, that's true…" Jarred stated. "So, I guess we'll have to go get them ourselves. Great…."
"Wonderful, more hard work…" Sherlock complained.
"Shut up…" Alpha demanded.

Autumn was dragging a pillow from Mew and Victini's trailers. How she found it is unknown, but she found it and was able to secure the pillow. She had lost her flashlight earlier and was now about to wander around, as she did not know how the others were doing…
She felt a strange presence around her and stopped dragging the pillow she closed her eyes and focused on her surroundings based on sound.
She heard quick feet running and the sounds got louder and louder before she jumped up and landed on a tree branch while still holding her pillow. Once she looked back down with a confident smirk, she dropped her pillow out of shock. There, she saw an Umbreon with ruffled fur and a scar over his right eye.
"D-DADDY!" she exclaimed as she leaped down and tackled him.
Shade chuckled at his daughter. "Nice job, sweetie…"
"So...are you the one chasing us down?" Autumn asked, letting up off of him.
"Yeah, those assholes teleported me here without my consent, but then offered me $2,000 to do this…" Shade explained. "So, how are things going here? You and Chase getting along?"
"Ha! Hardly…" Autumn replied. "And my stupid team is on a losing streak!
"Oh?" asked Shade. "And uh...is your brother on your team?"
"Yeah…"
"Oh...well, I guess you're the last one for your team…"
"WHAT?!"
"Yeah...sorry about that."
Autumn growled. "Well dad, looks like you're gonna have to help me…"
"Um...if I did that, I'd get nothing. Sorry baby…"
Autumn groaned. "Great...now I'll probably lose again…"
She started walking forward and bumped her paw against something blue sticking out of the ground. She looked down and started yanking on the object. Then, she saw that it was a blue submarine shaped item with holes on the side.
"What the hell is-"
"THE RESHIRAMS WIN!"
Autumn gasped before tackling Shade again out of happiness.
000
Everyone was back at the main meeting area.
"Congrats Reshirams, YOU ALL AREN'T COMPLETE SHIT!" Victini exclaimed.
"And thanks Shade for helping out…"
"Yeah yeah, now where's my money…" Shade questioned.
"Wait...HE was the one chasing us down?!" Sandra exclaimed.
"Yep...meet Autumn's daddy…" Chase said, rolling his eyes.
"Well, you see Shade, the money will be deposited in-"
"Give me my money now before I rip your legs off and eat them!" Shade snarled, shocking everyone around except for Autumn and Chase.
Victini quickly teleported him away. "Not having another psycho here…and I like my legs."
"Remember that my stepmom is an Espeon...so she'll just teleport him back…"
"Hey, we didn't hurt him, so there's no reason for it."
"Um...sorry to break up the useless conversation about a family no one gives a shit about, but we're missing two players over here!"
"Oh, you actually care?" asked Sherlock. "We gotta eliminate someone anyway…"
Suddenly, Macey appeared in front of everyone holding her love ray. "I-It's fixed...IT'S FIXED! NOW ALL OF YOU GUYS WILL DO WHAT I SAY...FOREVER!"
Suddenly, her ray was lifted into the air and broken in half, courtesy of Alpha. Everyone stared at him in shock.
"Why the fuck are you all staring at me?"
"You couldn't have done that...WHEN IT FIRST HAPPENED?!" Jadia exclaimed out of anger.
"Hey, we're getting rid of her anyway…"
"No...NO! You can't!" Macey said, scooping up parts of her ray gun. "I-I need to get it fixed again...I NEED MY FANTASIES TO BE REAL!"
000
Macey was chained up inside of the cannon with Ghost-resistant chains. "NO! I WANT MY FANTASIES! ALL OF YOU GUYS BELONG TOGETHER! FUCK THE OTHER FEMALES!"
"Oh get her the fuck out of here already!" Jarred exclaimed.
"With pleasure…" said Mew, pressing the button.
"AAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!"
"Okay...now we have to find Brian and personally beat the shit out of him for fixing her gay ray!" Sandra exclaimed.
"Hey, we don't know what happened…" Roscoe said. "Maybe we can ask him once we find him…"
Kaia huffed. "He'd better have a good explanation…"
000
Taylor: FUCK! We actually WON! Looks like I'll have to kick up the sabotage game…
000
MACEY IS FINALLY GONE! NOW MAYBE THINGS WILL BE NORMAL AROUND HERE! Well...as normal as things were earlier, if things were. Taylor's gonna step up his game and is loving Rex more and more, and we got our first and only cameo of the season! Anyways, I hope you enjoyed this chap and I'll see you all next time on Total...Pokemon...PARAFROSYNI ISLAND! See ya guys, BYE!
