Yay! Halfway to the merge! I think... Whew, there were troubles with the last chapter (entirely my fault, because I forgot). So, if you read it the day it came out, check again for the new scene I added in. Sorry for that inconvenience. Also check out LazyFoxLover's story, for all you Naruto fans. Also Renegade, I will try the spacing out, but chances are I'm probably going to go back to the not quite so spaced. Sorry. Tomhur has fixed his little problem with his TPI and is taking OCs, so help him out a little ;) And so, a new chapter begins! The music today is "Hoenn Elite 4 Remix" by GlitchxCity.


"HEY YOU MAGGOTS! WHEN I FIND THE IDIOT WHO PUT JELLY IN MY PILLOWS AND HOOKED SEWAGE WATER TO THE SHOWERS IN THE HOSTS' BATHROOM, I'LL KILL HIM! AND BY IDIOT, I MEAN SHUSHU, BECAUSE IT IS OBVIOUSLY HIM! SO GET YOUR A**ES DOWN HERE YOU SONS AND DAUGHTERS OF A B****!" Darkrai angry voice stopped yelling and many of the campers' ears hurt.

Cresselia and Darkrai were waiting when the campers, groaning, arrived. "Hello campers!" Cresselia said cheerfully.

"WHAT?" They yelled, barely hearing Cresselia.

"You didn't have to yell that loudly into the megahorn that was already set at 'So loud you will probably go deaf'! Audino! Use Heal Bell!" The Audino intern complied and everyone could hear again.

"YOOOOOOOOOOOUUUU!" Darkrai yelled, hurting the ears of recovering campers. Darkrai jumped forward. "I'LL KILL YOU!" He unleashed several Dark Voids, all of them missed the intended target and hit some very unlucky interns.

Cresselia smacked him in the face. "I told you, tortured not killed! Do you want Arceus to kill you?"

"No," Darkrai responded meekly before settling down, but not before throwing ShuShu a death glare.


ShuShu and Ryu are standing together. Ryu is rolling on the floor laughing so hard he was beginning to cry, while ShuShu had already laughed his a** off."That was a good one," Ryu says after recovering."I know. And we have so much more in store," says ShuShu. The two high-five/paw.

OOO

Darkrai is seething. "THAT SON OF A-" The camera turns to static as Darkrai begins a looong rant.


"Please welcome today's guests. Mesprit, Azelf, Uxie, come on out!" Cresselia called. "Hello! Oh, you guys have such mixed emotions! I can't wait to see what I can do!" Mesprit said cheerfully, arriving to the left of the campers.

"Lets see how strong your willpower is," Azelf said, coming in on the right side of the campers.

"Do they have a specific gender or something?" ShuShu whispered.

"No, we're bisexual legendaries who rape male and female Pokemon on a daily basis. NO DUH we have a gender," a sarcastic voice said. Uxie flew in to the front of the campers. "At least some of you are smart, unlike the shady pooch over there," Uxie commented, referring to ShuShu.

"I'm not shady!" ShuShu growled indignantly.

"Today, Mesprit, Azelf, and Uxie get to mess around with you guys. Mesprit will mess with your emotions, Azelf will test your willpower, and Uxie will see how smart you idiots are," said Darkrai.


"I-I don't l-like this ch-challenge," JJ says.

OOO

"I'm not too worried about willpower and knowledge, but dude, Mesprit could so screw us up and turn us insane by messing with our emotions," ShuShu says, standing alone.

OOO

"Shiro-chan, they have rubies! See! On their tails!" Pich was happy, not seeming to be bothered by the challenge.

"You can't play with them," Shiro tells Pich. She doesn't seem to notice and began jumping around the confessional.

"I'm more worried about Mesprit..." Shiro leaves the confessionals, Pich following.

OOO

Phoenix is pacing around. "This isn't good-for obvious reasons.


"To explain the challenge better, when I am testing you, we are going to see how long it takes until you try to attack me, tell me to shut up, or overreact," Mesprit explained.

Azelf stepped up. "When I test you, we will take various tests on willpower. Trust me, they will not be easy."

"I'll be setting up tests a few levels beyond your level and we will see how well you do." Uxie started typing up tests for each camper. "You're first Mesprit."

"Who to pick, who to pick..." She hummed cheerfully, noticing most campers inching away. "Aaw, you're scared of me?"

"They should be. Remember what she did to that Charizard? He was never the same," Azelf remembered.

"Even I couldn't fix it," Uxie admitted. The campers were even more nervous when they heard that.

"This is boring. Here." Uxie used his Psychic powers to push Shiro and Tom out the group of campers. "Let them go first. I think they'll probably hang in longer."

Most campers sighed in relief and sat back to watch how Tom and Shiro would do. Tom was watching Mesprit, while Shiro looked like he was taking a nap.

"Still haven't found her?" Mesprit whispered to Shiro, who opened his eyes and glared at Mesprit. The campers noted every single thing she said, seeing as they barely knew anything about Shiro.

"How do you she isn't dead? They could have killed her," Mesprit circled Shiro, who twitched slightly.

"She?" Most campers wondered who "she" was.

"So that's why you never liked Gardevior and Gallade. How do you know she hasn't forgotten you? Did you grow attached to that little one because she reminded you of her?" Mesprit continued. It was obvious Shiro was very annoyed.

After several more minutes of Mesprit whispering several more things in his ear, Shiro snapped. He slammed her with a powerful Iron Tail and froze her into a block of ice with Ice Beam. Then he knocked her around the island with some more Iron Tails.

"Don't ever say that again," he growled before stalking off. The campers backed away, scared. Pich didn't see Shiro snap and she ran up to him. "Shiro-chan?" She asked, holding a box. He softened a little and opened it for her before settling down in the shade of a tree.

"Um... His time was about 8 minutes. Take a look at the message from some random person while we thaw out Mesprit," Azelf said.


"How many barrels can a Bibarel barrel through inside a barrel if a Bibarel could barrel inside a barrel?" A Bidoof said. "Try saying that five times fast!"

Several people are shown trying to say it 5 times fast. They all failed miserably.


Mesprit was thawed out and had downed several mugs of hot cocoa. "Wow, I didn't think he would actually do that," she said. "So, the Lucario is the next one?"

Tom looked calm, but he was wary.

Inside his ear so the others wouldn't hear, Mesprit whispered, "How do you know she isn't leading you on? She is a spy, they are trained to lie to people can't tell. Can you really trust her? What if she plans to use you? She could have an alliance."

Some doubts started to creep into Tom's mind, but he shook them off. That was Mesprit wanted him to think.

Mesprit then whispered something and Tom's face twisted in rage. "YOU DO NOT SAY THOSE THINGS AGAINST MY BEST FRIEND!" He roared, beating the s*** out of Mesprit. The campers stared. Tom had lasted 8 minutes, like Shiro.

"You are weak Mesprit. Weak. You can only fight with words. I fight with WILLPOWER!" Azelf cried. "I could beat you anytime!"

"No you couldn't. Someone could lose their willpower thanks to their emotions, so ha! I win!" Mesprit retorted, fully healed (somehow).

"Just so you know, knowledge always wins. Someone who has only strength will eventually bow to wisdom, and emotions are controlled with knowledge," Uxie drawled.

"WHAT?" Azelf and Mesprit yelled at the same time. The three siblings began to fight and said some pretty nasty things.

"Emotions can cause someone to forget what they learned temporarily, whether they are in love or blind with rage!" Mesprit hissed.

"And willpower can defy your 'knowledge' and 'wisdom'!" Azelf growled.

The campers and hosts just watched as the three fought. "You sure you aren't dating each other or something?" Darkrai cackled.

"Are you mental?" Cried Mesprit.

"To answer that question," ShuShu replied, "Yes, he is indeed mental."

"Whatever. We came from the same EGG! You think we would date our sister?" Azelf said in disbelief.

"Idiots these days." Uxie typed up several more tests in a few seconds.

"YOUUUU!" Darkrai once again leaped out to attack ShuShu and the Lake Trio.

Cresselia restrained him. "Umm... Montage time?"


Start of the Emotion Test Montage

Alost of the campers fell to pieces after their little "talk" with Mesprit.

JJ simply broke into tears after 1 minute and 30 seconds and started sobbing into Arua, who barely held back her own tears after 2 minutes. Luke attempted to beat the crap out of Mesprit after listening for one and a half minutes, but Mesprit dodged all the hits.

Phoenix looked absolutely horrified after 3 minutes, Jaquline almost mauled her after 5 minutes, Nick had surprisingly lasted for 8 minutes before slashing Mesprit with a Shadow Claw. Shadow looked very depressed after 4 minutes, and Twilight only lasted for fifty-five seconds.

Ho-Ohs total time: 42 minutes and 45 seconds.

After 6 minutes, Edgar almost killed Mesprit. Katie lasted for 2 minutes before crying, Ryu almost burned a crater into the ground in 5 minutes, and Ty held on for 8 minutes before using Close Combat on several boulders, blowing them into pieces. Wex had a deadpan look in his eyes along with ShuShu, both of them lasting 4 minutes and 15 seconds.

Vincent looked stunned after 3 minutes and fell over in shock, Zero rocked in a fetal position after 3 minutes, later joined by Wex, then by Mikayla, who lasted 4 minutes and 10 seconds. Morgan and Gracedia burst into tears and ran to their boyfriends, with Morgan lasting 4 minutes and Gracedia holding on for 3 minutes.

Reese lasted for 6 minutes before roaring in anger and unhappiness and unleashing several attacks.

Lugias total time: 48.4

End of Emotion Test Montage


"What did you do?" Cresselia cried as she had gone to do something and came back after Mesprit had finished with most of the campers.

"I did what you asked me to."

The campers were a wreck. At least most of them. Most of the girls ended up crying, some of the guys were in fetal positions, and even Shiro and Tom were slightly off, both of them looked disturbed.


The campers were all inside the confessionals, minus Pich. In unison, they say, "I hate this challenge."


Darkrai was laughing. "I LOVE THIS CHALLENGE!" He had a devilish grin on his face.

"Ugh... One more camper... And honestly, I don't want to do it," Mesprit said.

Uxie looked up from his test typing. "I agree with Mesprit."

"Same here, I wouldn't want to do it in her position," Azelf had taken to zooming around the campers.

"PICH!" Mesprit called.

Pich bounced in and came to a dead stop when she looked around. She gaped at everyone, and in 7 minutes, tears started to pool around her eyes. 3 minutes later, she started crying and ran to Cresselia, the closest person.

"C-C-Cresselia-Chaaaaan! Waaaaah!" She wailed.

"I told you I would hate it..." Mesprit looked depressed herself.

"So you can just ignore the fact you almost emotionally destroyed almost all the campers but only show remorse on one of them?" Cresselia couldn't believe it.

"She is only 1 month, 3 weeks, and 4 days old. She has a short past and a bright looking future ahead. What do you think?" Uxie sarcastically commented.

Mesprit explained, "In order to actually make her really unhappy, I had to do something physically. She's hasn't lived for too long and hasn't had any horrible experiences for me to use. She also hasn't yet been exposed to any kind of betrayal, she hasn't been in love, and she hasn't done anything I could turn against her. So I kind of had to make everyone a wreck for her test. I told you I wouldn't exactly like it."

"You're too much a romantic. You wouldn't really do stuff like this anyway," Uxie commented.

"So... CAMPERS! The Ho-Ohs win that challenge! Um... ready for the next test?" Cresselia tried to be a bit cheerful, but faltered after the looks the campers gave her.

"Well... Then at 3:00 PM today, we will continue... Okay?" Cresselia felt sympathetic.

The campers nodded and trooped back to the cabins slowly. Shiro came to get Pich, who had stopped crying and had fallen asleep.


At 3:00 P.M...

"Alright campers, Azelf will test your willpower!" Mesprit said to the campers, who had recovered- for the most part.

Azelf was thinking. "Lets see... which kind of test will work out best for all of them... I GOT IT!" He concentrated for a moment and BAM! He teleported Arceus- Normal Form- to the island.

"Hmm? What am I doing here?" She asked.

Azelf whispered in her ear, and she nodded. "Okay class, today we will cover the history of all the legendary Pokemon! Hang on, because there are at least 1,000 chapters!" Arceus seemed very cheerful as most campers groaned.

"Chapter One: The Beginning. At first, there was only an egg. One single egg, in which a Pokemon named Arceus emerged from. Arceus, using her astounding god/goddess-like powers, shaped the world, but it was barren with almost no life on it. However, that was soon to be changed-" Arceus pulled out the biggest and fattest book anyone had ever seen in their life and started reading from it.

One chapter later...

ShuShu, Ryu, Reese, Edgar, Luke, Arua, and Pich dropped out, all of them bored, tired of sitting down, or hated the chapter, which was at least a million words long.

On the fourth chapter...

Only JJ and Wex were left, as the second and third chapter was even LONGER than the first one. The ones who had dropped out were waiting to see who won or was doing whatever.


"That was the most boring book in the history of books," Edgar says. "And I think all books are boring.

OOO

Jaqulina was very, very unhappy. "WHO THE F*** WOULD READ A GOD D***ED BOOK LIKE THAT?"

OOO

"I like books, normally, but that book was just... really long. And boring." Tom says.

OOO

"Why is Arceus-san reading a giant book?" Pich was looking out the window to see Arceus droning on.


Arceus was now reading the 7th chapter, which consisted of 3,439,087 words. Wex couldn't take it and fell asleep, only to be hit by a Chansey's Wake-Up Slap.

"Wha?" Wex looked very confused.

"AND THE HO-OHS WIN THE SECOND CHALLENGE!" Cresselia said, the Ho-Ohs jumping for joy.

Arceus closed the book. "I think I am done here."

"U-um... Could I-I have a c-c-copy of t-that book? I-it seems i-i-i-interesting," JJ said, to almost everyone's disbelief.


"How the? I know I'm the being of knowledge and all, but even I find that book really boring!" Uxie was shocked.


"Here you go, little one." Arceus produced a nicely bound book and handed it to JJ.

"T-thank you."

"Er... Anyway Lugias, you have one chance to make it to immunity. If you can beat the Ho-Ohs in the knowledge test, you will win immunity. But it's late, so we will continue tomorrow! Get to bed!" Cresselia was yawning.


The Next Morning...

The campers arrived at the Pavilion after a quick breakfast. Uxie was holding many different papers, looking very sastified. Azelf and Mesprit were chatting with Cresselia.

"Alright you maggots! Here are your pencils and stuff, so get to work! You have 3 hours!" Darkrai looked very bored, and started shooting some Dark Voids at interns just to see what kind of nightmares they would receive.

2 and a half hours later...

Uxie looked up from his various books and electronic devices. "30 minutes left," He said in a monotone voice, causing several campers to panick.

"I'M ONLY ON THE TENTH GOD D***ED QUESTION! THIS IS IMPOSSIBLE!" ShuShu cried.

Tom was confused. "This has way too many different equations, requiring knowledge from several different fields and needs several inferences to answer even a single question."

"Ah... I'm done." JJ handed in her test and fidgeted as the campers stared at her in disbelief.

Uxie graded her test in a minute and was astonished. "She got a whopping 80% correct!"

"Holy Heatran! That's like amazing, especially since it was a test Uxie made!" Azelf's jaw had dropped when he heard JJ's score.

"She just pawned about half of the legendaries!" Mesprit cried. "Wait till they hear about this!" She hummed happily as she twirled.

"Anyone else done?" Uxie was much more interested in the campers, especially JJ. "Who knows what kind of qualities they possess?" He thought.

"I am." Shiro gave his paper to Uxie before Pich jumped up.

"Uxie-kun! Here's the paper!" Pich also gave Uxie her test before sitting down next to Shiro.

"The albino one has a score of 80% and the little one-" Uxie spat out whatever he was drinking and stared at Pich like she was an alien.

Azelf was curious. "Bro, what's the matter?"

"Lets just say all the legendaries, not counting me, were just pawned by an almost 2 month old Pichu," Uxie replied.

Darkrai choked. "WHAT?"

Cresselia didn't believe it. "What's the highest she could get? Maybe a 50?"

"More like 100%!" Mesprit cried after seeing Pich's score.

"She got a ONE HUNDRED?" Darkrai roared. "What is she, a miracle?"

"You have some very interesting subjects here..." Uxie smiled, and for once, he made the campers nervous. Very, very nervous.

"Well, Lugias, you are really lame. I have no idea how many elimination ceremonies you've been to, but you've been to a lot. You will vote tonight. You have time think and do whatever. Ho-Ohs, you are safe for the millionth time, blah blah blah, now shoo." Cresselia said.

The Lugias complained.

"HE GAVE HER EASY QUESTIONS!"

"THIS ISN'T FAIR!"

"SHE CHEATED!"

"THEY HAVE ALL THE SMART PEOPLE!"

"SILENCE BEFORE I KILL YOU ALL!" Darkrai and Uxie shouted. The campers clammed up.

"Okay, who tutors you, Pich?" Uxie was calm and gentle(ish) again, but most people could see the evilness within.

"Shiro-chan, JJ-chan, Tom-kun, and Edge-kun!" Pich said, smiling innocently.

"EDGAR?" The campers yelled in disbelief.

"Okay, so MAYBE the stupid brat has been sneaking over to play and MAYBE I let her into my room and MAYBE I play some games with her. So what?" Edgar put extra emphasis on the maybes and was leaning against a post, scowling.

"What did you teach her?" Shiro growled.

Edgar sighed. "Fine." He turned to Pich.

"Pich, we are going to play a game."

Pich looked at Edgar happily. "Yay!"

"Today, we will play Beat Up The Hosts. They said it was okay. Ready?"

"WAIT WHAT?" Cresselia and Darkrai yelped.

"Okay!"

"GO!"

Pich flew at the hosts with amazing speed and the beat the s*** out of them wih several different weapons, her moves, a tree, and one of Uxie's laptops. When she finished, she smiled innocently again and looked at Edgar.


"Pich is dangerous. Really dangerous." Vincent said, flapping his wings.

"We can handle her. Right?" Ty asked.

"Of course we can."

OOO

"They say big things come in small packages, and Pich truly embodies that," Tom said, JJ nodding in agreement.

"I-I'm g-glad she's m-my friend."


"Did I win Edgar-kun?"

"Yes, yes you did."

"Yay!" Pich bounced back over to Shiro, who had looked on disapprovingly, but decided the skills would be useful in defending herself in the future and didn't say anything against it.

"BWAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAAAAA!" Azelf and Mesprit had fallen over laughing so hard they cried, while Uxie gave off an evil grin because he had recorded the entire thing.

"You got owned... BY A KID!" Azelf continued laughing until he almost died because of no air.

"You guys are going to get it from Mewtwo..." Mesprit was gleeful.

"SHUT THE F*** UP! ALL YOU DUMBA** CAMPERS GET THE H*** OUT OF THIS ARCEUS FORSAKEN A**HOLE OF A F***ED UP H***! GET YOUR BULLS*** OUT OF HERE!" Darkrai yelled as the campers scrambled into their cabins.

"Too far Darkrai," Uxie said, eyes glittering. "Too far."

"TOO FAR YO MOMMA'S A**!" Darkrai stormed off to blow things up on his private destruction island.

Later... At the Elimintation Ceremony...

"Okay, you all voted. Katie, you're out for whatever reason. Goodbye." Cresselia floated away while Katie looked shocked.

"Why me?" She asked.

"Don't ask me, I voted Darkrai just to annoy him, but he wasn't here. Ciao." ShuShu dashed off.


"Oh... I guess I liked being here." Katie was inside the TreeHouse Confessional. "I would want the girls or one of the nice guys to win."


Katie flew off the island, to Darkrai's complaints.

"I didn't get to tie anyone up today!" He whined, very unhappy.

"Just come on, before Mewtwo finds us," Cresselia moaned.

The hosts quickly went inside their trailers after that short conversation.


Yeah, the ending was lame. So, if you're camper is involved with something, like an alliance, or is in a relationship, send me scenes. Especially about the pairings. I'm terrible at writing love scenes. I think I've got my first case of writer's block, or maybe it's just the test stress. Either way, it might take a bit for the next chapter, so yeah. Leave reviews, check out the Poll, I SERIOUSLY need those worst memories for those who haven't sent them, and hopefully, it'll go smoothly. I've also revealed more about Shiro's mysterious past, and Edgar is friends with Pich? *dramatic music* Uxie is a smarta** maniac, Azelf a tough guy, and Mesprit a sort of half girly-girl and half tomboy. Also, I will kind of feature one of the campers in each chapter. Since I still cant quite portray all of the campers as easily as I can portray my OCs, it might be hard, so, that was just an FYI.


Katie: Please review, or Edgar will set Pich on you!

*from the island* Edgar: I WILL! AND GLADLY!


Next Time... on TPI...

The challengers will face their worst fear-and their worst memory. The truth behind someone is finally revealed. Will Pich beat anyone up? Will Edgar soften up? Will the campers break the Fourth Wall? Will everyone get lines? Find out next time on TPI!
