A/N Okay here's the first part of eight, yes each of these next few chapters are all the same challenge chapter, and remember the reason I'm breaking it apart is so that I give everyone a speaking part, they all get focused on and I get to work in some bits of descriptive nature in so enjoy, and don't forget to put in the votes on who you think was the better survivor.
Belize was sitting in captain's seat of the boat the wind blowing through his fur he started to remember the good times before he started to develop his pyromania ability, and before he got with foster parents that were abusive and drove him to using it for more severe purposes.
"Hey Belize watch out." Petunia said while quickly flailing her arms, Belize snapped to and looked at Xzavior, Kayser, and Splinter all just in a group holding on to each other for dear life, Belize then looked at the front of the boat and saw a giant tentacle outside of the water waving. Belize laughed.
"Don't worry, its just one of my little pets, he wont harm anyone." The tentacle wrapped around Belize and pulled him out of the chair and flung him around in air a bit, Belize didn't look worried or anything, "Okay, seems the challenge has started a little early, survive the boat crash and then survive on the island, while I get a friend to play with my pet."
Petunia jumped into the captain's seat and tried to turn the boat to prevent a damaging crash, but it wouldn't turn, she tried to release the throttle, but it somehow still sped up. "What the hell, the throttle isn't even on that much power, but some how we are speeding up." Kayser said as he was looking around/
"What's going on with this show, Belize is a lunatic lately." Suddenly the boat starts to shake and rattle. "What's going on?" Petunia said, as the boat suddenly started to slow down just a little, but then they see the island was very near and they were still going to be going in for a hard landing if they don't slow down the boat any more.
The boat crashes through most the waves slowing down little by little, but it just wasn't enough, the boat hid an underwater tree stump and flipped through Xzavior, Petunia, Kayser, and Splinter out of the boat and into the water Splinter who was the luckiest was only 2 feet from the shore, Kayser who was the unluckiest was hardly thrown from the boat and had to endure 20 feet of swimming to get onto the beach.
Splinter was the first onto the beach, he started to shake himself off and he started to look around, "Well this doesn't seem that tough." Splinter looked around and saw a stick, he walked over to it tested it out by hitting the ground a few times then he figured if he can find something sharp, he could easily make a spear for hunting for food.
The second he started to think about food his stomach growled like he hasn't eaten in several days, suddenly he felt his energy weaken, but he could still move just not as fast. He fell a couple of times, but got up every time trying to push himself on to survive.
Xzavior who was the second to make it onto the island some how ended up several thousand feet from where he was suppose to, but he didn't think much of it, he just started to feel around if he had his cigarettes and his booze on him then he would be fine, but then he realized his carving knife was gone, he felt upset he lost it, after almost losing the last challenge to get it back.
"No damn it, I will not let it go." Xzavior said to himself as he went combing the beach trying to find the knife, hoping it fell out when he landed on the beach, but he couldn't find it, he then started to get the same effects Splinter had, but he was more worried about his knife then getting food.
Xzavior looked all around the beach and couldn't find the knife he fell to the ground looking around and he could have sworn he heard voices. "Stay down you worthless piece of shit." Xzavior looked around he knew the voice, but he didn't think it to be real, he got up and looked around, "Oh look Liam the piece of shit has finally became a little more worthy, too bad he should have known his place as a worthless piece of shit." Xzavior looked around, he knows that voice for sure and he knew the name.
"I am too worth something, you assholes, I am worth something." He then looked into the water and saw a dark blue fox, standing next to the dark blue fox was a hot pink fox with a gold crown on her head. They were just sitting there laughing, and smiling at the distress they are bringing Xzavior. "I will show you." he then punched the water and the reflections and voices disappeared. He kept looking at where the reflections were and once the dust settled he saw his knife sticking out of the dirt, with the blade up, only six inches away from the indent in the dirt where he punched Liam's reflection.
Petunia Made it to the island she looked up and around, and was surprised the place was nothing like Belize said it was, she looked at the coconut trees and palm fronds and started to smile, she then started to feel hungry so she ran up to the coconut tree before her energy was sapped away, and grabbed the coconut and started to pound on it trying to break it open, once she got it she started to drink the nutritious milk that was inside it.
Petunia smiled after she finished the drink, she felt a little hunger get nullified, but she knew she needed more. She quickly got a couple and broke them open and drank the milk from them, once she had seven of them she started to look around, and started to feel something was wrong, she finally started to feel the need for expressed cleaning, she started to run around in circles she got tired and laid on the ground, she realized if she doesn't control her OCD she will not survive the five hours.
"Okay Petunia, you can do this, its just five hours you can go five hours without cleaning… Right?" She felt her hand shake and try grabbing for a broom, using her other hand she slapped her self to get her mind off cleaning, she then felt the energy sap again from running around in circles, she climbed the tree and found an oddly shape and smelling coconut, but she noticed there wasn't anymore around, that wouldn't require a refreshing load of energy so she figured it would be okay, as long as its not poisonous.
She slides down gets on the ground and pounds the coconut open, once she got it open she took a sip of the milk, she was shocked aside from the smell and how it looks it was pretty damn good for a coconut, so she drank it down as fast as she could. Petunia, looked around and saw a lot of movement, she then saw sand figured walking up to her, she then heard a reverberated echo of noises, she then looked down at her hands and started to wave them and noticed that it was having an after wave effect like slow-motion frame changes.
Petunia then took full notice of the sand figures who she then saw was smiling at her they were laughing and having fun, Petunia then started to see images of her friends in all of the sand people, she then went over to them and discovered the detail of the sand made exact details and how they are viewed when they move. Petunia rubbed her eyes and then started to see colors swirl all around her, she then looked at the dirt and could hear the dirt singing to her.
Kayser finally made it to the beach, but he was extremely exhausted before any of the hunger exhaustion kicked in, he tried to move, but he couldn't after swimming for so much, he rolled in the dirt and started to try grabbing for something, or just trying to move around and let anyone know he made it, but he didn't see anyone, he shut his eyes and just fainted from that point.
Before Kayser was completely out he felt someone was dragging him into the forest, and they were speaking in unknown language, He heard a female voice, "Nijvika yatofa ba nobikalsa?" "Edukan dervishke sminelstar." From a man and then he completely fainted and couldn't feel anything any more.
Kayser started to smell something delicious, his mouth started to water, he slowly opened his eye and saw a beautiful golden brown squirrel with a swirl started on her chest going up her head and finishing out on her forehead with a lavender bow on her ear. She was holding a bowl in her left hand and a spoon full of what was in the bowl, in her right hand.
"Nediskaptra?" Kayser looked around and then looked confusingly at the squirrel. She shook her head. "Oh I am sorry, this is the language, of my people, and I get use to talking like it, but every now and again passerby's like you pass out on the island, and we help them." The squirrel smiled sweetly at Kayser, "Okay, umm what exactly did you ask me then?" He then looked at the spoon and the bowl and then he mentally face palmed. "Never mind I think I know." The squirrel smiled, "So then are you?" Kayser looked at her and then at the food in the bowl, he started to be tempted, but he shook his head.
"Thank you for the offer, but this is a survival challenge, I think that you just made me break the rules just by saving me from death." The squirrel looked sad, "Well none of the others mentioned to us about a 'challenge' what is it exactly?" the squirrel looked intrigued at the light blue squirrel.
"Oh we are on this huge mainland, island not that far from here, we are doing survival challenges, for a competition show for fame and fortune." The golden brown squirrel had a look on her face of concern, "What exactly is the name of this island?" Kayser closed his eyes and started trying to remember the flyer of coming to the island, then he remembered it. "Luna-Twai-CoIsland" the squirrel dropped the bowl and the spoon.
"You have to get off that island, it is a cursed land, no one should ever be there, Luna-Twai in our language is moon-rage. Each night any where near a full moon, anyone on the island start to go insane, they here voices in the night, anything built will be destroyed, and the spirits there torture everyone that is the strongest, or the most gullible on the land." Kayser looked shocked and then jumped out of the chair, but fell over.
"You are not yet, healed… Please sit rest… Is there anyone else on this island, or on Luna-Twai?" Kayser looked around, well there's three here, but the main island is twenty-eight others." Kayser said as the brown squirrel was helping him back into the chair. "Okay you stay and rest I will let my people know you cant speak our language, they all know yours fairly well." She then sighed "and please do what they ask okay, we will need every ones' cooperation to save everyone before its too late."
Splinter using two rocks sharpened his spear well, he then went down to the beach and saw a dark blue figure he recognized it was Petunia, he ran over to her as fast as he could once he got to her, "Petunia… Petunia, get up…" Petunia was completely silent, Splinter looked at her face and saw tribal marking all over her, he was then shocked she hasn't gone OCD crazy yet.
He shook Petunia a little and still had no response, he shook her more, still nothing, he started to hold her and listen if she was still breathing, but heard nothing, he then laid her down on the ground and started to walk away until he heard metal being sharpened by a stone. Splinter quickly ran over into the jungle over a small hill and then he saw a dark gray fox with a Mohawk, staring off into the ocean gliding a rock against the side of a blade.
"I will prove to you I am worthy." Was all Splinter could hear, he got in fairly close when Xzavior dropped the stone wrapped up Splinter in a choke hold and held the knife to his neck. Xzavior looked at him "What are you trying to do? Get yourself killed?" Xzavior said after he let the porcupine go, Splinter got up and saw a miniature shack made of fish bones and a fire place. "How did you manage all of this in three hours?" Xzavior looked around, "You live a life on your own, you have to be creative in how you survive."
Splinter nodded, "Well have you seen Kayser?" Xzavior shook his head, "Other then the fish, and a couple of other people I have not seen anyone, until you arrived, which reminds me how is Petunia?" Splinter looked down at the ground and Xzavior felt a little bad, but he hated showing sadness so he tried to keep up his appearance. "Okay, so we have an M.I.A, and one gone, seems we are the only two that survived."
Splinter nodded "Yeah, I guess, but Kayser is smart too he may still be alive." Xzavior shrugged, "We will find out soon, the challenge is over for us in an hour so it doesn't matter much, plus we are still playing in the game, and I intend to prove I am worth something." Xzavior stood up and too patriotic hero's pose and then started thinking to himself 'Yeah right My family hates me, and if I win, I guess the money will just go towards my habits, a fresh stock every couple days.' Xzavior started to smile Splinter just sat and looked confusingly at Xzavior not sure if it's a good or bad sign he's happy.
They hear rustling in the bushes, Xzavior whispered to Splinter, "Okay I have a sharp weapon, you draw who or whatever it is too you and I will sneak up behind to take down, unless its Kayser." Splinter nodded he slowly walked into the open "W-who's there?" the rustling just stops, Splinter walks over near it, and then suddenly gets jumped by a golden brown squirrel.
"Ifgandaporande!" she yelled a couple times, Xzavior tried to make a stab at her, but she grabbed his wrist hit his arm in just the right spot to paralyze it, and made it useless, Xzavior looked shocked at the squirrel and tried to tackle her off of Splinter. Xzavior managed to get her and held her down. "Let go of me you fool, I'm trying to help you." Xzavior held on as well as he could with one hand, using mainly his body to hold the squirrel down.
"Then why are you attacking us?" the squirrel was struggling a little, "Wait, its not you too that have been consumed by the darkness." Suddenly there's more rustling and then a spear came out of no where landing right next to the brown squirrel head just barely missing Xzavior's good hand.
Splinter saw someone standing on the hill just above where Xzavior was, it was a dark blue color, he then recognized it was Petunia, she was alive, maybe. "Nida junta peofrak wakiltra!" Petunia yelled, but it was in a darkened tone, the golden squirrel quickly hit Xzavior and he suddenly stiffened and fell off of her, she then ran up to the squirrel, "Ifgandaporande, Ifgandaporande, Ifgandaporande!" Suddenly the atmosphere started to feel darker, and then the pressure was just so much, Splinter couldn't stand up any longer his body wouldn't let him stand up, he was down laying on the ground, the only ones still standing was the squirrel they just met, and Petunia.
Petunia, was giving a sinister smile she was attacking the squirrel, both of them were yelling in the strange language, Xzavior and Splinter just sat in their place trying to not intervene for either side, not because they didn't want to, but because the pressure in the air was too much and they couldn't really even move, even if they wanted to.
Splinter then saw a shadow figure in the forest and it was heading toward him and Xzavior, but once it got closer he recognized the squirrel was Kayser and he wasn't affected by the pressure of the atmosphere, Splinter and Xzavior both looked at him shocked, but then continued to watch the battle. They see Petunia on the ground and the squirrel was standing over her.
Suddenly the squirrel kissed the skunk on the lips and then suddenly everything calmed down, the atmospheric pressure started to get lighter, and Splinter and Xzavior started to get up they quickly run up the hill to where the squirrel was still kissing Petunia, after a few more seconds the squirrel stopped and gently laid down the skunk.
"Just let her rest, she will recover, but I do give you this warning get off Luna-Twai-Co Island, it is cursed, and you all may end up like your friend here, but they wont show themselves until they are sure they are strong enough and hidden enough to strike in the shadows." The squirrel gets up and then pulls out a leaf and ties it to Petunia's head.
"This will keep the darkness away from her for a while, but I must go I am the shaman of the village and I need to make sure my people stay safe." The squirrel started to run off "dywana typse uaransa?" Kayser said shocking not only Splinter and Xzavior, but shocking the squirrel, "Jenugfretalis" She then went off into the forest and disappeared.
"So what is her name?" Splinter said intrigued and suspicious at the same time. Kayser laughed, "Ah lets' not worry too much about it now, but I guess a first name will suit you enough… well its Michelle." Kayser then looked at the sky and saw that the five hours were up and they all started to drag Petunia to the extraction point where Belize picked them up in a different boat.
"So how was the survival? Seems everyone still alive that's a decent sign." Suddenly out of no where a couple of figures came out of the forest wearing dark shade glasses and started to start flashing lights and ensuring that everyone was hit, once they finished they all just disappeared.
"What the hell, what time is it?" Belize looked down at his watch and saw five hours went by. "Did we just have the challenge for this group?" everyone shrugged, "Well I wouldn't be on the boat this close to the island if it wasn't and the extraction was hidden in a coconut so this was a hidden location. So I guess everyone survived, well time to take you home, all of you get a rest, and the survivalist of this challenge will get their award once this full challenge is over."
Belize laughed and then started up the boat and started making their way back to the main island to send the next group to the island.
