What's up people?

Metal Sonic: Your ass is if you don't upload this story more often!

Whoa, chill down Metal Sonic, I have not given up on this story yet.

Waluigi: Well could you at least hurry up with this story?

Fine, if you do not think that patience is a virtue, then I'll get on with this story.

Chapter 11: Shy Guy Takes Charge Part 2


We're back! Right before the break, Shy Guy started out Round 1 with some very easy commands. Thus, none of the contestants got out of the game yet. However, all this could change in the second round. Let us see how things will turn out!


The audience was now starting to get excited, wondering which player would be out of the game first.

Luigi: Knowing the type of player Daisy is, she is most likely going to stay in this game for a long time, in fact she might even be the eventual winner.

Daisy: Aw, thank you so much sweetie!

Rosalina: Everyone is getting prepared; I guess it is time to go back to the game.

"Ok, it's time to start Round 2, are you all ready?" Shy Guy asked the players.

"Yes!" all 30 players replied enthusiastically.

"Shy guy says clap your hands!" Shy Guy exclaimed.

All 30 players clapped their hands simultaneously.

"Jump up and down," Shy Guy said.

Every single player stood rooted to the ground.

"Shy Guy says jump up and down," Shy Guy said.

All 30 players started jumping up and down.

"Shy Guy says stop," Shy Guy announced.

All of the players immediately stopped jumping.

"Shy guy says raise up your left hand," he said whilst he rose up his right hand.

Fortunately, almost all the players did not fall for the trick. Well, except for one player.

"Charmy, you are out," Shy Guy told him.

"What, that is not fair!" Charmy sulked.

Oh, Charmy Bee is the first player to be out. On the replay here, we can totally see that Charmy fell for Shy Guy's opposite hand trick and raised the wrong hand, the right hand. Not bad for Shy Guy, using the opposite hand trick as a start. Let us see what other tactics Shy Guy is going to use later on in the game.

Sonic: I'm just lucky that I wasn't the first one out to be out of the game.

Daisy: When I saw Shy guy rise up his right hand, I knew for sure someone would fall for that trick. I just didn't know who it was going to be.

"Ok, 1 down, 29 more to go! Shy Guy says jump up and down!" Shy Guy continued.

All 29 players jumped up and down in their spots.

"Stop," he ordered.

None of the players stopped jumping.

"Stop, STOP, STOP!" Shy Guy yelled.

The 29 players still kept on jumping.

Cosmo: Gosh, Shy Guy sure is trying his very best to eliminate us.

"Shy Guys says stop jumping." Shy Guy ordered.

All the players immediately stopped jumping in fear of getting eliminated.

"Clap your hands," Shy Guy said.

2 girls clapped their hands and immediately clenched their teeth in regret.

"Dixie, Cosmo, you're out," the referee announced.

"Seriously, come on. Isn't there like a second chance?" Dixie bragged.

"Nope, sorry about that," Shy Guy responded.

Ooh, both Dixie and Cosmo got eliminated from that command alone.

Cosmo: Wow, I lasted a lot shorter than I had expected to. I could only hope that my teammates would do better than I did.

Metal Sonic: Great! Cosmo is out of the game and we are down by one player and our chances of winning are now smaller.

"Wow, 2 more players out already. Ok, let's continue. Fill up the spaces here," Shy Guy said as he pointed to Silver and Hammer Bro.

While Hammer Bro did not move, Silver did.

"Silver, you're out. I didn't say Shy Guy says," Shy Guy told Silver.

"Oh man," Silver said as he walked away.

Not bad, Shy Guy sure is getting off to a decent start, let's what other tricks he has up his sleeve.

Amy: Silver, seriously, are you really that dumb and gullible and stupid to fall for that trick?

"Shy Guy says squat down," Shy Guy continued.

26 players squatted down without uttering a word, even though some girls felt uncomfortable.

Peach: This pose doesn't really feel so good.

Amy: I'm really praying that Peach rips her pants and panties while she is squatting down.

Wario: Oh man, I didn't get to see Peach's panties, or underwear, that is if she even is wearing any.

Daisy: Pervert Alert!

"Shy Guy says stand up," Shy Guy commanded.

None of the players failed to execute this command.

"Now turn this way," Shy Guy said while he turned to the left.

Again, none of the players got out.

"Shy Guy says turn this way," he repeated, turning to the left.

Except for Luigi, all the players turned in the correct direction, towards the left.

"Luigi, you're out," Shy Guys announced.

"Oh, boo!" Luigi cried out.

"Don't say that sweetie; after last year's scary Halloween, I do not want King Boo to reappear again!" Daisy cried out.

Well, ignoring that weird comment by Daisy, Luigi clearly turned the wrong way.

Tikal: Um, I'm not sure if I should be focusing on Luigi's elimination from the game or Daisy's weird phrase she had just said.

Mario: Well at least now we know that I am better than Luigi in this game, no intention of any sibling rivalry by the way.

"Shy Guy says; rise up your left hand," Shy Guy stated as he rose up his left hand.

Finally understanding the game, the remaining 25 players all rose up the correct hands.

"Put them down," Shy Guy said.

None of the players listened to Shy Guy's command.

"Shy Guy says put them down," all the players placed their left hand down.

For some of them, however, they felt a weird feeling.

Dr Eggman: I could vaguely make out a smirk on Shy Guy's face, almost like as if it was time for an ultimate command.

Rosalina: I was thinking things differently than the other players; MC Ballyhoo said that points will be awarded, but he didn't say how they would be awarded. There's definitely got to be a small twist somewhere, just like the donut earlier on at lunch today.

"Shy Guy says, everyone turn around," Shy Guy commanded.

All the players turned around, unsure of Shy Guy's next command.

"Shy Guy says, ABOUT FACE!" he yelled.

22 players executed this command the right way. 3 of them, unfortunately, could not follow along with the command.

"Toadette, Wario and Amy, the 3 of you are out," the referee announced.

"Crap," Wario muttered under his breath.

Ouch! That must have hurt the 3 players. "About Face" means to turn to face a hundred and eighty degrees clockwise, but Wario and Amy only turned the right way only after the other players had turned. And Toadette seemed literally confused by this command, and these 3 players, unfortunately, are out of the game.

Amy: This was absolutely ridiculous! I'm a girl; so I've never been or done military training before. How in the world do you expect me to know what "ABOUT FACE" means?

Waluigi: Well, at least we can conclude that among me and Wario, I'm the smarter brother!

"Shy Guy says, everyone start talking nonsense," Shy Guy commanded.

Straight away, all the players became a bunch of big blabbermouths, some of whom were saying stuff that they shouldn't be saying.

"I am total b****!" Rouge shouted out loud.

"I need a new toenail clipper," Donkey Kong randomly shouted.

"That doesn't even make any sense..." Blaze told him.

"Peach has chest hair!" Waluigi jokingly shouted.

"Waluigi is a bastard!" Daisy threateningly stated.

Peach: Great comeback Daisy... even though Waluigi is your teammate.

Daisy: Oops! Sorry about that Waluigi!

"I *************************************** with her and then we ************, and I ******************* and she eventually ******************* date," Shadow said.

"Seriously, Shadow, would it kill you to not say any curse words for five minutes?" Blaze asked Shadow.

"Shut up, Miss LVP," Shadow replied.

"Hey, you forgot about batgirl," Peach reminded Blaze.

"What I want to say, this is the stupidest part of the game!" Birdo said.

Birdo: I don't know what on earth Shy Guy was thinking, but that was a STUPID and idiotic command.

"Ok, that's enough trash talking!" Shy Guy ordered.

However, the players still continued to say rubbish, some of them even going to the extent of using curse words, including some of the goodie-two-shoes.

"Shy Guy says stop the trash talking!" Shy Guy shouted.

Every single one of the players immediately "shut up" and listened attentively.

"Shy Guys says everybody sit down on the floor," Shy Guy ordered.

All 22 players sat down on the floor.

"Shy Guy says do a complete 360 degrees spin and then stand up." Shy Guy said.

All the characters spun around while they were sitting down and got up when they had turned a complete 360 degrees, well, most of them at least.

"Blooper, you are out," the referee indicated.

"What? Why?" Blooper asked.

"You only spun approximately 300 degrees before you stood up," the referee pointed out.

"Dang it!" Blooper grumbled.

Blooper there, tried to cheat. As shown on the replay, Blooper, who was supposed to turn a complete circle, only turned three-quarters of a circle. Blooper thought that none of us could see him cheat, but here in Shy Guy Says; no player ever cheats and gets away with it.

Yoshi: I am extremely worried now. Why? Simple, because now that Blooper's gone I am the only player from Team 5 still left in this game. This is going to be pretty difficult...

Vector: I'm pretty sure that all of us have learnt from Blooper's elimination that we must execute the given commands correctly and that if we were to cheat, we would also be out of the game.

"Shy Guy says spin around," Shy Guy ordered.

All the players turned around and listened to Shy Guy's next command carefully, unsure of which player would be eliminated next.

"Shy Guy... I'm sorry Rouge what did you ask me?" Shy Guy asked.

"Err... I didn't say anything..." Rouge replied perplexedly.

"Why did you answer me? I didn't say Shy Guy Says, you're out," Shy Guy stated.

"I'm WHAT!" Rouge yelled in shock. "WHAT? That was totally uncalled for!"

"Boy, that girl seriously has an anger problem," Dry Bones stated.

"NOBODY ASKED YOU!" Rouge screamed.

"Quit copying my catch phrase!" Daisy barged in. "Even if you are my teammate."

Whoa! That was the loudest complaint in this game yet. Rouge was completely caught off guard there and answered Shy Guy's question, and she's not taking her elimination very well.

Mario: All right! That's one more player less in this game.

Birdo: Ok, I am definitely keeping a far distance from Rouge from now on.

Daisy: I'm totally cool with Rouge being on my team, but I'm completely not cool with her stealing my phrase!

"Lastly, Shy Guy says jump for joy and yell out "We made it past Round 2"," Shy Guy told the remaining 20 players.

"We made it past Round 2!" the players' cheered while jumping.

"And that's it for Round 2, great job to the 20 of you!" Shy Guy applauded.


Wow, Round 3 haven't even started yet and one-third of the players are already out. Let's take a look at the results so far.

Players in Team 1 left: Hammer Bro, Knuckles, Peach, Sonic and Tikal

Players in Team 2 left: Birdo, Blaze and Mario

Players in Team 3 left: Metal Sonic, Rosalina, Shadow and Tails

Players in Team 4 left: Daisy, Waluigi and Vector

Players in Team 5 left: Yoshi

Players in Team 6 left: Donkey Kong, Dr. Eggman, Dry Bones and Espio

Yoshi: I'm really stressed out right now because I'm the only player in my team that's still left in the game.

Hammer Bro: Our team is so much better than the other teams; after all, all of us are still in this game.


"All right, it is now time to start Round 3, is everybody ready?" Shy Guy asked.

"Yes!" Tails replied happily.

"Tails, you're out. I didn't say Shy Guy Says," Shy Guy told the two tailed fox.

"Oh no!" Tails cried.

"Well that sure was quick," Espio responded.

Oh dear, Tails fell for that trick right at the beginning of the third round.

Shadow: We just started and Tails got out; things are definitely not going our way.

"Shy Guy says turn to your right," Shy Guy said.

Fully sure of the directions, all the players swiftly turned the right direction.

"Shy Guy says hop on one foot," Shy Guy said.

All the players immediately hopped on one foot.

"Nah, you know what, that command was stupid, put your foot down." Shy Guy said.

All the 19 players kept their feet up and tried their very best not to lose their balance.

"Shy Guy says put your foot down," Shy Guy announced.

All the players placed their feet down, completely oblivious of what was going to happen next.

"Shy Guy s..." Shy Guy began.

"AHHH! Someone has fainted!" a Koopa lady screamed, pointing to a Toad who has "fainted".

"Oh my goodness gracious, everyone hurry go help!" Shy Guy said worriedly.

Some players immediately ran towards the Toad who had "fainted".

"Shy Guy says STOP!" Shy Guy shouted.

The players who had moved stopped in their tracks.

The audience watched as the Shy Guy walked towards the Toad and pulled him up. The Toad was absolutely fine. The audience broke out in laughter and applause.

"This was some sort of a trick, to try to fool you players. And for all the players who came forward to help out the Toad, I'm sad to say that you're out." Shy Guy explained. "So, Tikal, Waluigi, Espio, Dry Bones, Donkey Kong and Knuckles, you're officially out of the game."

"Wow, 6 people in a row," Blaze said, relieved and yet surprised at the same time that she was still in the game.

Oh my god! This is a new record for Shy Guy, 6 players out in one go!

Waluigi: This is bulls***!

Tikal: Wow, didn't know that the producers would go to this extent just for a game. By the way, did Waluigi say bulls' eye, bulls hit or that other dirty word?

Espio: Ok, that Toad so owes me one!

Dry Bones: So much for at least attempting to be helpful.

Donkey Kong: Good luck Dr Eggman. You're the last player left in our team. Don't let us down!

Knuckles: Ok, so much for being helpful to someone from a different universe. This taught me 2 things, you try to help out, and you lose. You don't help out, you also lose. We are just better off not even seeing, helping or talking to each other from now on.

"Wow, so many players out in 1 command, can you believe this?" Shy Guy asked the remaining 13 players.

"I ca..." Metal Sonic responded but quickly took back his words.

Metal Sonic: Darn it!

"You replied, you're out," Shy Guy said.

This is insane! Round 3 just started like 45 seconds ago, and 8 players are already out. Looks like Shy Guy really does deserve a raise after all.

Sonic: Well that sure was easy.

"Shy Guy says; raise both of your hands up," Shy Guy said.

All the 12 players left raised up their hands.

"Wave one of them," Shy Guy told them.

There was no movement.

"Shy Guy says wave your left hand." Shy Guy said while he waved his left hand.

11 players were still in this game. 1 of them no longer was.

"Hammer Bro, you waved your right hand first, you're out," the Toad said.

"Aw, come on!" Hammer Bro complained.

Shy Guy resorted to a new tactic and apparently we now know through that command that the players can't rely on Shy Guy's actions to succeed.

Birdo: Just 11 of us left, apparently.

Sonic: With Hammer Bro. gone, I and Peach were the only 2 players in Team 1 that were still in this game.

"Shy Guy says smile," Shy Guy ordered.

All the characters tried their best to smile, including Shadow who did more of a smirk than a smile.

"Shy Guys says dance when the music starts," Shy Guy instructed.

The producers turned on the radio and a very catchy tune was being played. All 11 players tried to dance, even though some of them did look extremely awkward.

Daisy: Woo! Now that's what I'm talking about! Oh yeah!

Vector: Daisy, please, you are looking like a total idiotic fool.

Metal Sonic: Daisy, don't take this too seriously, but you are a total embarrassment to your team and the Mario universe.

Daisy: Hey, weren't you out of the game already?

Bookreader233: Daisy, quit breaking the fourth wall!

However, throughout her dance, Daisy kept focusing on one player from another team. When that character turned to look at her, Daisy glared back and gave that player a very threatening look.

As for Blaze, she was looking around at the other ten players, and when she saw Daisy, she nearly stopped dancing.

Blaze: I kept my eyes peeled while I was dancing and Daisy's cunning action definitely told me that she was my biggest opponent. My second opponent? I would have to say that it is Rosalina. I don't know why, but I just find her a very devious player. Maybe it is because she the MVP yesterday while I was the LVP.

Rosalina: Amongst all of us, I think I and Shadow are one of the stronger players and I hope we both can make it through this round.

Suddenly, the music stopped. So did Dr Eggman.

"Shy Guy says stop dancing," Shy Guy ordered.

The players stopped dancing and looked at Shy Guy.

"Dr Eggman, why did you stop dancing when the music stopped?" Shy Guy asked.

"Wait, but I..." Dr Eggman tried to reason.

"I never said that you should stop dancing when the music stops, you're out," Shy Guy announced.

Dr Eggman: NO! My entire team is now eliminated. None of us are left in the game anymore.

Vector: Oh yeah, the doctor is out, and I'm one step closer to winning.

"Shy Guy says turn 360 degrees," Shy Guy ordered.

All the players turned a full 360 degrees respectively.

"Now then I want you to gather in this arrangement for the rest of the game onwards." Shy Guy announced.

The Toad referees then dropped the numbers 1 to 5 on the ground. They also dropped a box on each number.

"Number 1, Peach and Blaze. Number 2, Shadow and Vector. Number 3, Sonic and Birdo. Number 4, Daisy and Mario. Number 5, Rosalina and Yoshi. Shy Guy says move to your respective numbers now," Shy Guy demanded.

Shy Guy has the players moved to respective places, what's going to happen now and what is inside the mysterious box?

The remaining 10 players quickly moved to their designated spots.

Daisy: The 2 players in all the 5 numbers are all in different teams, so this would be a good time for us to get one another out of the game.

Yoshi: What does Shy Guy have up his sleeves this time, I wonder?

"Shy Guy says, all boys pick up the box at your spot," Shy Guy said aloud.

All the boys in Numbers 2 to 5 picked up the box. Peach and Blaze, the two players who were in number 1, which didn't consist of any boys, did not budge at all.

"Shy Guy says Peach and Blaze come towards me," Shy Guy ordered the two girls.

The 2 girls started walking towards Shy Guy.

"Best of luck," Peach whispered softly to Blaze as they proceeded towards Shy Guy.

"Shy Guy says don't slow down," Shy Guy ordered.

The 2 girls didn't slow down, but instead walked at a faster pace.

"Stop." Shy Guy said.

The 2 girls still kept on walking.

Peach: I ain't going to get fooled by Shy Guy so easily this time.

"Shy Guy say stop," Shy Guy said.

The 2 girls stopped in their tracks.

"Shy Guy says turn 180 degrees." Shy Guy said.

Both Peach and Blaze turned around and faced the other 8 players.

"Shy Guy says Birdo open that box and take out what's inside," Shy Guy told Birdo.

Birdo did as she was told to do so and opened up the box and took out its content: A cream pie.

A cream pie, gee, what is going to happen now?

"Shy Guy says Birdo walk towards Mario," Shy Guy announced.

As Birdo started proceeding towards Mario, the audience and the players got a feeling of what's going to happen.

Mario: Oh dear, clearly Shy Guy wants Birdo to throw the pie at me.

Birdo proceeded nearer to Mario and stopped just outside the number 4 and awaited for her instructions.

"Shy Guy says Birdo," Birdo nodded as everybody else got excited. "Throw the pie into Daisy's face."

"Ha ha! Good luck Bird... WHAT DID YOU SAY?" Daisy shrieked in horror.

"Woo! Daisy's gonna get pied everyone!" Peach cried out in excitement.

The audience burst into laughter and excitement.

Ok, that look was worth over a billion coins, let's take another look at that look on Daisy's face again.


Replay:

"Good luck Bird... WHAT DID YOU SAY?" x10 times (slow motion)

Yoshi: Now this is going to be good.

Daisy: I tried my best not to feel uneasy, after all, I'm DAISY!

"Good luck Bird... WHAT DID YOU...?"

"Enough already!" Daisy shouted.


"Whoa, someone's pretty angry," Blaze commented.

"O...k..." Daisy said. "Go ahead Birdo."

Birdo: Daisy seemed like as if she was taunting me. Well, at least everybody knows that it was Daisy herself who asked for it.

Birdo slowly raised up the cream pie as she got ready to throw it at Daisy.

"Throw it! Throw it! Throw it!" the crowd chanted.

WHOOSH!

Birdo threw the pie and when she looked up, she saw Daisy with a pie on her head. Birdo and Mario quickly backed away as Daisy jumped around wildly, screaming like a chicken.

"OMG! I can't believe this!" Daisy yelled out. "I can't believe I just got pied! WOO!"

As everyone cheered, shouted and applauded, the 10 players turned to Shy Guy and waited for their next command. However, Shy Guy had something else in mind.

"Well, that was amazing. However..." Upon hearing the word however, everyone immediately quieted down and waited for Shy Guy to finish what he was going to say.

"I had said that Birdo was supposed to throw the pie into Daisy's face. But Birdo threw it onto her head. So Birdo, you didn't execute my command correctly, so..."

"Oh dear," Birdo, Blaze and Mario thought.

"Birdo, you are out," Shy Guy announced.

"Seriously?" Blaze demanded.

"Well... at least I still made it to the top 10," Birdo sighed.

What a shame! Birdo got out because of a small, tiny mistake. Well at least she still lasted for quite a long time, and she also put up a great show for us.

Blaze: Wow, I can't believe that even a small mistake like that could cause elimination.

Daisy: Birdo may have been eliminated, but there are still tough players like Mario, Shadow and Sonic still left in the game.

"Shy Guy says About Face," Shy Guy suddenly commanded.

Upon hearing the command, Shadow turned a complete one hundred and eighty degrees anticlockwise while the other players all executed the command correctly.

"Shadow, you are out," The referee stated.

"****************..." Shadow grumbled out loud.

"For heaven's sake, will you stop all of that cursing already?" Blaze demanded.

"Shadow, you lost fair and square, so just accept it," Sonic told him.

"Yeah, you are out. You can't deny that fact. So put a sock in it Shadow," Daisy continued.

"Humph! Idiots," Shadow muttered under his breath.

"I heard that!" Blaze stated.

"I don't care!" Shadow yelled.

Shadow: Now, our only hope left is Rosalina. How our team will fair all depends on her.

Rosalina: So apparently, I'm the only Mario player in Team 3 and the only player left. Guessing maybe my other teammates fell to Shy Guy's commands because they're not familiar with him.

"Shy Guy says face me," Shy Guy ordered.

All the remaining players turned to face Shy Guy.

"So, it's down to you 8 players. You've all made it a long way, but in the end there can only be one winner. You've all survived longer than the other players," Shy Guy told the final 8 players.

Sonic: Wow, I didn't expect to be this far in the game at all.

"We are almost ending the third round, all you guys got to do left are think of your answer to this simple question. Who do you think stand the highest chance of being the winner of Shy Guy Says?" Shy Guy questioned the remaining eight players.

The 8 players all pondered and glanced around at their final opponents, thinking who would most likely be their biggest obstacle.

After a minute of deep thinking, the players were all ready with their answer.

"Now then, I will not be saying Shy Guy says for this next command, I just need you to answer the question. Got it?" Shy Guy asked the players.

All 8 of them nodded silently.

"Good, now, Mario, who do you think stands the highest chance of winning this game?" Shy Guy asked.

"I think it is Sonic," Mario admitted.

"Ok, Vector, how about you?" Shy Guy continued.

"I kind of feel it is Sonic as well," Vector said.

Sonic: Whoa! Both Vector and Mario think I may win this game? Well, I wouldn't really count on that.

"All right, what about you Peach?" Shy Guy proceeded.

"Well, all of us stand an equal chance at winning this game. But in my opinion, I feel that the player who has the most potential of winning this game, is Rosalina," Peach announced.

"Thank you Peach," Rosalina gratefully said.

"You are welcome," Peach answered back.

"Yoshi, how about your choice?" Shy Guy asked next.

"I feel it is, umm..., Mario," Yoshi said.

"Got it. How about you Sonic?" Shy Guy demanded to know.

"Well, I think it is also going to be Rosalina," Sonic told Shy Guy.

"Gee thank you Sonic," Rosalina said to Sonic.

"Don't mention it," Rosalina replied.

"How about you Daisy?" Shy Guy asked.

"Well, I feel that my biggest threat left is... Mario," Daisy stated.

"Ok, so we have 2 votes for Mario, Sonic and Rosalina each," Shy Guy announced. "Blaze, what is your opinion?"

"Personally, I think it is going to be Peach," Blaze said.

Peach seemed slightly appalled at Blaze's statement, but she was not going to let any one of the players know that.

Peach: Blaze goes for me, and not Daisy? Now just what exactly is that cat up to this time?

"Last but not least, Rosalina, who do you think has the highest chance of winning this game?" Shy Guy asked Rosalina.

"Basically, all of us have done our best and we each have a chance at winning this game. But for me, I feel that the player who will most likely win this game, is Mario," Rosalina stated.

"Ok, that is about it," Shy Guy told the players. "Blaze, Vector, Yoshi and Daisy, the 4 of you did not receive any votes, but you can still be the potential winner. Peach, you received 1 vote and Sonic and Rosalina, you received 2 votes each. Lastly, Mario, you received 3 votes, and to the other players, you seem to be the one who would win the game. The question is will you actually win the game in the end?"

Mario gulped in apprehensiveness.

"And that is the end of Round 3!" Shy Guy loudly announced.

Upon hearing that Round 3 had ended, the entire crowd broke into applause.

"Now then, for you final 8 players, the fourth round will start in 5 minutes. You can now take a short break and talk to your teammates; they can give you some useful advice. I'll see you back here in 5 minutes," Shy Guy announced as he walked off the stage.

The audience members watching the game went to take a short breather as the other 8 players quickly went to their teammates for their quick break.


Mario: Mamma mia! Majority of the remaining 8 players think it is me who is going to win the game. But will that actually happen in the end?

Daisy: You know, somehow, and I don't know how, it just feels a little bit weird. I mean, I thought some players like Blaze would say that I stand the highest chance at winning this game. After all, I do perfectly well in games like this. And let's not forget, I was the only Great Gym player who managed to decipher the secret rule of the Shy Guys earlier on today.

Yoshi: Man! It was extremely pressurizing because I was the only player from Team 5 left in the game before Round 2 ended and I'm now going to proceed to Round 4. It is really nerve wrecking!

Peach: Blaze thinks that I am going to be the eventual winner in the end. I am not sure whether or not she was telling everyone the truth when she said that, but I assume that she was lying to either throw me off guard, of simply because she could not make up her mind and she just randomly picked me.

Rosalina: Everyone has got the potential to win this game. Mario got most of the votes from the remaining players, I and Sonic are also pretty good players, Peach has also been playing very well at this game. Even the other 4 players who didn't receive any votes by the remaining 8 players might win this game as well, Daisy has also been playing consistently well; Yoshi has made it this far in the game, so he could be the winner too. And Blaze and Vector, who are both leaders, also stand a chance at winning this game. Who will eventually win Shy Guy Says? I guess time will tell.

Sonic: I chose Rosalina as the winner because she made it further than her other 2 team members, Metal Sonic and Shadow, whom I thought would last longer than her. Also, with the fact that she was the MVP yesterday, and that she also found the secret message hidden inside the donut at lunch this afternoon, she, without a doubt, could be a really tough opponent for each and every single one of us, and not just in Shy Guy Says, but also for all of the other challenges.

Blaze: It sure is a good thing that my teammate, Mario, is in the fourth round with me. And plus, he got the most number of votes just now, so our team may finally be able to outdo the other 5 teams, make that 4 teams, excluding Team 6 who no longer stands a chance of winning since Dr Eggman got out of the game.

Vector: Sonic is definitely a very tough player, but who will be the final winner?


And so, those are our last 8 players. Who will actually win the game?

Players in Team 1 left: Peach and Sonic (1, 2) votes

Players in Team 2 left: Blaze and Mario (0, 3) votes

Players in Team 3 left: Rosalina (2 votes)

Players in Team 4 left: Daisy and Vector (0 votes each)

Players in Team 5 left: Yoshi (0 votes)

It seems that Teams 1, 2 and 3 stand the highest chance of winning the game. However, everything in this game is unpredictable.

Who will fall victim to Shy Guy's commands for the last time?

Player: Oh my god!

Who will lose out?

Shy Guy (points at player): You are out.

And who will make it to the fifth and last round?

Shy Guy: It is just you 3 players left.

Find out in the next chapter.


Author: Well, that sure was a pretty tense chapter.

Silver: Yeah, you made it seem like as if it was Survivor.

Birdo: And that command from Shy Guy was stupid and idiotic at the same time.

Dixie Kong: Which one?

Metal Sonic: Why do you need to know?

Well, since things are really starting to get tense here, I guess I will stop writing and leave you guys with nothing but the suspense.

Lastly, I do not own Mario and Sonic; they both belong to Nintendo and Sega respectively.

Everyone: Bye!
