BaconBaka's Bites: First off, I would like you to pray for my friend, EarthVSTheDerek on deviantArt. He recently lost his mother to cancer. I've been in his shoes once, and I wouldn't wish that kinda fate on anyone.
Also… There's a Winter Storm coming. So, if I'm not online, I most likely lost power for a few days… Here's hoping I don't lose it.
The Tremors Challenge continues! Yeah, this challenge may be confusing for some…
Don't break into the wrong Rec Room!
Tough Turtles
The five team members were pole-vaulting across rocks, hoping they wouldn't be any worm's lunch, despite said Graboid being a animatronic Allie built.
"Okay, dude and dudettes, first off, we should think up a way on how we'll take on our underground friend." Quentin said out loud, between hops. "I've seen the movies once or twice. So I've got some idea on how to truly wipeout a Graboid."
"Whatever the case, we're dealing with something that any skills at Looney Tunes can suffice." Candace stated.
"Then go Gravity Falls levels?" Vikki suggested.
"I dunno; I don't think Weirdmagedeon even dealt with Graboids, to be honest." Candace answered back.
"In either case, we're just five people against one giant worm." Vikki stated. "Think we can even take it down?"
"Hey, you just gotta believe!" Omelette winked back, as she tried to hop, but fell on her butt. "Dammit! How do you even do that, Vikki?"
"Years of practice, Omelette." Vikki replied back, as there was some noises going on behind them.
"No… Not the underground… NO!" Ugra yelled out, running on the ground, with the Graboid chasing him.
"Ugra, no! Get on the rocks, brah!" Quentin ordered.
"AAAAAAAAAHHH!" Ugra screamed out loud, as he was soon dragged underground, by the Graboid.
Ugra has been Eaten
"Yikes… I really hope that comfortable in there..." Omelette shivered. "Eaten whole, butt first? I wouldn't wish that on my worst enemies!"
"Nevermind that; we should just stay alive." Candace said out loud, as the four continued to hop on the rocks.
"So, where should we go, anyway?" Vikki asked.
"Well, from what these creatures brought, it tends to avoid any rocky areas. So, we should head for any mountainous terrain." Candace explained. "If our buddy here wants leftovers, he's gonna be denied; the soil around those parts are a bit rougher, even more-so for an animatronic worm."
"Whoa..." Quentin exclaimed. "How do you know a lot about soil?"
Candace chuckled. "That's the advantages of living with botanists, bud."
Confessional: You think their flowers shoot friendlyness pellets…
Candace: I've even asked Dana to grab up some soil samples from some neighboring islands for research purposes… -She looks at one of the samples of soil- Do I really wanna plant something in a pot labeled 'Blood Rock'?
In the Arena Building, a teleporter set up, was already turned on. Allie and Dana, the former doing upkeep on the Graboids, and the latter painting her toenails with clear nail polish, was wondering who was the first one to get nommed. Soon enough…
"Hey, look! My teleporter works!" Allie said out loud.
"Or course it does; you tested the Graboid on me several times prior to the challenge, so I know off-hand that it works." Dana smirked back, as she put away her nail polish.
The two watched, as Ugra materialized from the teleporter.
"No! Walls closing in!" Ugra yelled out loud, as he realized where he was. "...Huh? Allie and Dana? Where am I?"
"You're currently in the Arena Building. You're out of the challenge, sadly. But you can watch the rest of the challenge with us!" Dana said, smiling.
"Good; I rather not be stuck underground again." Ugra grumbled.
"But for now, let's see what the Squids are up to..." Allie said, as she started to pay attention to that particular team."
Schemin' Squids
They were riding on their path as well. There was no action going on, so they were currently chatting… Quietly, or course.
"So… You thinking on how to win over Omelette?" Ross asked.
"Hey, gotta make sure we both survive tonight." Xander replied back. "In the meantime, I spy a certain Mystic Warrior you should talk to."
"Who?" Ross asked, as Xander pointed at Luka, who was currently driving the tractor. "Oh, right."
Ross stepped over to where Luka was, and smiled.
"So, Luka… Gotta ask; how did you fall in love with animals, anyway?" Ross asked.
Luka warmly smiled. "Well, it all happened when I was five. I got lost in the woods close to home, and I felt I would never get out. I was sitting there, crying, when a deer came up to me. Nuzzling on me, the doe calmed me down. Soon after, a bluejay flew down, and also comforted me as well. Soon enough, I had an army of animals, guiding me out of the woods and back into civilization." She explained. "I gained the highest respect of animals that day."
Ross whistled. "Whoa..."
"And now, you can guess how I turned out." Luka winked. "I'm part of a group that adores animals as much as I do, along with the wardrobe to match."
Ross couldn't help but smile at his crush, as the mood was interupted.
"Hey, what's up with that dust cloud up there?" Luka asked out loud.
"I'm not sure… You don't think..." Luka questioned back, as…
…
…
...The tractor tipped over, along with the trailer on back, sending the campers flying.
"Ugh, that was quite a spill..." Xander noted, as he noticed something was off. "Oh, crap! Selena!"
Indeed, Selena was trapped underneath the trailer.
"HELLLLPPP!" Selena screamed out loud, not noticing the Graboid underneath her at that moment.
"Guys! We gotta get this trailer thing off her!" Xander ordered, as…
"AAAAAAAAHHHHH!" Selena screamed her last breath, as there was suddenly silence.
Selena has been eaten.
"Okay, change of plans. We only talk if the need comes." Xander whispered.
"Agreed." Whitney replied back, as she took out some bandages. "For now… Anyone needs some patching up?"
"Wow, I expect that coming from Allie, to be honest." Luka smirked.
"So… How do we take down our resident Graboid?" Whitney asked quietly.
"Well, coming from my part time extermination job, I've got a good idea on what to do." Xander answered. "Ka-Boom..."
"So, our objective is to blow that thing up?" Tina questioned, as Xander nodded. "I like those odds. Sounds crazy enough to work!"
Confessional: Crazy Reed would approve of that crazy idea…
Xander: Or course, gotta go for the components, first… Now, time to channel my inner Alec.
Tina: I gotta say… Poor Selena. Nobody deserved to go through that.
Luka: ...Blasted pitfalls.
Selena: Okay, THAT was scary! I rather not go through that, again.
Flyin' Flounders
The seven (plus Nerdi) were traveling down their path, with Yuki driving, and Isaac and Ethan hanging on the side of the tractor. Gina was currently doing her best Spiderman impersonation by swinging from tree limb to tree limb with her spider-belt.
"Er, Gina? You may wanna get down from there." Hannah instructed.
"Aww, but I still wanna test out the surprising functions I hid in this thing!" Gina pouted.
"But what if you break a bone?" Kagura asked.
Gina sighed, as she hopped into the trailer, and detracted the limbs.
"Fine… I'm back on solid ground." Gina said, folding her arms. "You happy?"
Kagura nodded, as she turned towards Maxwell, who was just looking at the scenery.
"So, Maxwell-Kun… Word on the street is that you're interested in Tina-Chan." Kagura winked. "You're a huge fan of my country's animation. I've thought you would fall for me, to be honest."
"Yeah, I thought so, too. But when I saw Tina… My heart went aflutter… Almost like a crash-into hello in various shojo animes..." Maxwell explained.
"Hey, Tina-Chan's a nice gal." Kagura smiled back. "You've went for a nice gal, indeed. Though, there is someone that I adore on the isle..."
"Who?" Maxwell asked.
"Well..." Kagura began to say, as a Graboid's tongue came from underground, and detached the trailer. The trailer continued on without a word.
"Well… This sucks." Bob said out loud, as the Graboid rose from the ground. "What do we do?"
"Leave it to me!" Gina declared, as she hopped into action…
Confessional: Famous last words…
Gina: Yeah, kinda forgot that Graboids hunt by noise… Oops.
Maxwell: Then it kinda went after us, next. We stood no chance, at all.
Hannah: In the end, only I survived, after Bob pushed me out of the way. He's quite the noble guy… -She suddenly realizes what she said- Noble? What is THIS nonsense?!
Ethan, Yuki, and Isaac
The three continued on their way, not noticing about their missing teammates, until…
Attention! Bob, Gina, Kagura, and Maxwell have all been Eaten.
"What the..." Yuki muttered, as she noticed the missing trailer. "Okay, how did that happen?"
"How what happened?" Ethan questioned, as Yuki pointed to the back of the tractor, displaying the missing trailer they were towing from behind.
"Well, this royally sucks." Isaac stated. "What do we do now? Half our team's already swallowed up, and we're dealing with some pesky worm..."
Nerdi then did some thinking, as…
"Oh, idea!" Nerdi exclaimed. "Yuki! Press that chain release button, meow."
Yuki did as instructed, causing a chain to be released from the back of the trailer.
"Good. Now… slam that pedal down!" Nerdi grinned.
"Er, sweetie? This thing only goes up to around 30." Yuki explained to the puppet.
"Damn!" Nerdi cursed. "Okay… New idea!"
At that moment, the tractor was stopped, almost knocking off Ethan, Isaac, and Nerdi.
"Okay, that was a sudden stop…" Yuki stated. "You guys okay?"
"Yeah, we're fine." Ethan answered back.
At that moment, the Graboid, having caught up to them, caught the chain, and started to pull the three campers' tractor from behind.
"You… Gotta be joking." Isaac said out loud.
"Yeah, this could had went lots better." Yuki added, as she tried to slam on the brakes, but to no avail.
"Crap… This isn't working!" Yuki yelled out loud.
"What do we even do?" Ethan questioned.
"I dunno, but we're about to approach the cliff, meow!" Nerdi screamed.
The three held on tight, as they braced for the worst…
…
…
...Only for the Graboid to stop, and release the chain. But the tractor kept on going, eventually going off the side of the cliff!
"Well… This is gonna suck." Isaac said out loud. "Betty? Please forgive me for soaking your snuggie."
"Betty? Betty who-" Yuki asked, as…
SPLASH!
The three, plus Nerdi, splashed right in the middle of the ocean. Quickly resurfacing, they soon started to swim towards shore.
"Ethan! Yuki! Isaac! I'm… not sure how that happened, but you three are disqualified from the challenge!" Chris announced from the intercom.
Isaac sighed, as he pointed at his snuggie. "Fine, disqualify us; I gotta get this thing into a washer quick!"
"Count me in too, meow!" Nerdi added. "I think I swallowed a plankton!"
The two made their way towards the washrooms, as Ethan looked at Yuki.
"So… Since we're out of the challenge, what do we do now?" Ethan asked.
"I dunno… Watch some clouds roll by, hon?" Yuki answered back.
Confessional: Cloud is too OP in his home stage!
Ethan: Hey, even though we're not in the challenge anymore… I had a lotta fun with Yuki.
Yuki: We spotted various clouds, including some that looked like dead Presidents… Yes, including William Henry Harrison.
Tough Turtles
The team continued to pole-vault their way on the rocks, as a thought hit Quentin.
"Hey, dudes? Is it me, cause I don't think I saw these lines of rocks on the island before." Quentin pondered.
"I wonder about that, too." Candace commented. "Where did these rocks come from, for starters?"
"Nevermind that; look!" Vikki announced, holding up a hand for the team to stop vaulting.
In front of them, was what appeared to be Dana's Gator, parked right beside a rock. The keys were still in the ignition.
"Nice! We've got a speedy way straight outta Wormville!" Omelette pumped her fist. "Though… Think she'll be ticked if we jack her ride?"
"I figured it was parked there for us, to emulate the actual movie." Quentin explained, as he fiddled with his glasses.
"In either case, I'm up for driving some more." Vikki grinned, as she hopped in the front seat, as Omelette followed, riding shotgun. The rest of the team soon followed, as Vikki turned on the ignition, and stepped on the gas. Right at that moment…
The Graboid popped its beak from underground, hoping to snag onto the Gator.
"Man, Dana's gonna be ticked if we damage her Gator." Quentin said out loud. "You may wanna punch it, Vikki?"
"Like a boss? You got it!" Vikki replied back, as she did so, causing the Gator to go moderately faster, with the Graboid still tailing the four.
Quentin blinked in confusion.
"Err, is this the top speed of a Gator?" Quentin questioned.
"Hey, I'm even surprised it can jet this fast..." Omelette answered back.
The Graboid opened its beak, hoping to snack one of the campers. Candace looked around the back of the Gator, hoping to find some way to deter the creature.
"Tree limb? No, breaks too easy." Candace muttered, tossing the limb off the Gator. "An Alaskan Amy action figure? Like a toy's gonna do anything..."
She placed the toy back, as she reached for something else.
"...Fried calimari with dipping sauce?" Candace questioned out loud.
Back in the Control Room, Allie looked at Dana with an annoyed look.
"So THAT'S where your lunch was… Oops; forgot." Dana sheepishly said, rubbing the back of her head.
"Er, will you hurry up, brah?" Quentin pleaded. "Our wormy friend's inching closer."
Candace pulled out what appeared to be a handle of sorts, almost belonging to a sword.
"What's this… beam katana?" Candace asked herself, as she turned it on. An electric blue beam came out of it, almost making a shape of a sword. "Whoa, this seems totally adult."
"Candace! Spare the details and HURRY, babe!" Quentin yelled out in fear.
"Oh, right!" Candace said, as she quickly got to the Graboid's tongue, and slashed at it with the beam katana.
The tongue came clean off, as it backed off, clearly in pain.
Quentin blinked at Candace's feat, as she turned off the beam katana.
"Whoa… Just… whoa." Quentin said, breathing a sigh of relief. "I never thought you've had some Jedi in you..."
"I'm quite surprised, myself." Candace replied back, looking at the beam katana.
"Right. Now, what's the plan on our buddy back there?" Quentin asked.
"Well, we BLOW it sky-high!" Omelette announced, raising her hands in the air, and nearly accidentally hitting Vikki in the process. "Sorry, Vikki."
"Blowing it sky-high?" Vikki questioned, as the clown grinned. "I may have an idea..."
Confessional: Ka-BOOM time coming?
Vikki: Granted, it may take a few resources, but I think I can make it work. Here's hoping my lungs can work their magic.
Omelette: What can I say? I'm a fan of big booms!
Schemin' Squids
They were currently running away from the Graboid, currently, all while it was tailing them.
"Man, for some ancient worm, it sure is fast!" Whitney said out loud.
"Nevermind that; we gotta find some way to distract this thing, or we're all toast." Ross added.
Xander nodded in response, as he stopped, and started to run back around, towards the Graboid.
"Xander, whatta doing?" Whitney asked.
"Simple; distracting this thing!" Xander yelled out, as he stopped, and patted his stomach. "Come on, you wannabee of a worm! I'm packing plenty of digested pepperoni along inside!"
The Graboid, hearing those words, rose up from the ground, and attached its tongues onto Xander, dragging him into its mouth.
Xander has been eaten.
"Yikes; we gotta book it!" Whitney yelled out, as she tripped. Luka, Tina, and Ross tried to go back to help, but…
The Graboid rose from the ground, snacking on Whitney as well.
Whitney has been eaten.
"Yikes…" Ross muttered, as the three ran away from the Graboid, as Ross glanced back. "Okay, we've had enough. We're making a stand!"
"How?" Luka questioned. "That thing can catch up to us, and snack on us like dinner."
"And besides, what use would it be to its meat consumption? You two are pescretrians, and I don't eat meat." Tina said.
"Wait, don't?" Luka questioned. "You didn't get bit by one of those ticks that hospitalized Alec, did you?"
"Oh, no-no-no… I'm actually Buddist." Tina answered back.
"Oh." Luka nodded back, as she looked at Ross. "So, where should we hide out?"
"We're just about there!" Ross replied back. "I gotta hand it for them to build something for this challenge."
A few short minutes later, they ditched the Graboid, as they arrived at their destination. The two girls were confused.
"An underground bomb shelter?" Tina questioned. "All for nothing, but that thing is a death-trap."
"Not exactly; if we get it outta its native environment, then it's smooth sailing for us." Ross replied back. "Now, let's enter!"
The two girls looked at each other, before agreeing to enter the bomb shelter with Ross.
In said bomb shelter, the three looked around at the various dusty decorations layed around. Most of it coming from the late 60's, early 70's.
"Err… Where did you find this tribute to Woodstock, anyway?" Luka questioned.
"Well, back in the Pirates VS Ninjas challenge. I took a look in here, but left it alone." Ross explained. "Never thought it come in handy for this one."
Tina expected the shelter, as well. "Hmm… Must have been built during the Cuban Missile Crisis. And after that ended peacefully, thankfully… Must have been some hidden clubhouse for hippies back when Wawanakwa was an active summer camp."
Luka smiled. "Wow, you've got a good eye for detail, Tina."
"Well, I often spend countless minutes on decorating houses in various games that have room customization." Tina said. "Gotta have some nice digs while waiting for plot to happen."
CRASH!
"Speaking of plot..." Ross stated, as the walls began to shake.
"Okay, we need some way to fight back!" Luka said out loud. "Tina, did you check the room throughly?"
Tina was still inspecting the room, as she noticed something was off.
"Hold up! That Jabberjaw picture! That is NOT 60's! It's a cash-cow franchise to milk off Scooby Doo's success!" Tina stated.
Ross blinked, as he looked at Luka. "Er, did we accidentally get Candace on our team?"
"Hey, a guy I know got is a huge fan of cartoons." Tina answered back. "But, something's fishy here, and literally."
She removed the picture, to reveal an opening in the wall. Inside said opening…
"Is that the PORTAL GUN?" Tina questioned, raising an eyebrow, taking out said gun. She read the inscription.
Property of Allie; from our bestest cousin.
Tina eyed one of the walls, and gave off a grin, as she shot at two different walls, creating two separate portals. Then, tossing a leftover pillow into one of the portals, the pillow came out from the other portal.
"Hmm… Hello..." Tina said to herself, as she made her way back to the team. "Er, guys?"
"Tina? Where did you..." Ross questioned, as he shook his head. "Nevermind. How do we propose that we take this thing down?"
"I've got an idea..." Tina announced.
Confessional: Famous Last Words?
Tina: Sure, it may be a bit crazy, but… I've seen stuff that borders on pure insane! Noses, Giygas… Giygas' nose…
Luka: Hm, that Portal Gun… Think this plan will be a triumph?
Flyi… Er, Hannah
Hannah was the only one left in the challenge, from what she heard from Chris.
"Okay, Hannah. Psyche yourself; it's only a giant underground worm, that's eaten your friends." Hannah noted. "Time to take it down, one of the ways you know how…"
She then walked on the ground, looking for any signs of her worm.
"Hello? Graboid? I give up!" Hannah shouted out loud. "You have every right to eat me as your late-day snack!"
Nothing happened, which agitated Hannah further.
"Come on! I said, you have 99.99% permission to eat me!" Hannah yelled out loud.
Once again, nothing happened.
"Ugh! Am I gonna have to pull you outta the ground myself, WORMS FOR BRAINS?!" Hannah screamed.
All of a sudden, a jet of soil came towards Hannah, seemingly mad at the goth girl. Peeking its beaked face out, it started to unleash its tongues out, until…
"No sale, wormy!" Hannah taunted, as she ripped one of the tongues out of the Graboid. Tossing it aside, she taunted the worm some more.
"Come on! You know you like the dark-clothed meat!"
The Graboid lunged at her again, ready for a second go. This time, Hannah grabbed onto both tongues, and pulled it out of the ground.
"Okay… This! Is! For! Bob!" Hannah declared, as she tossed the Graboid from her hands, and it flew towards the trees, seemingly breaking it. Hannah then sat on the ground, and breathed a sigh of relief, at the job she done.
Confessional: Score one for Hannah!
Hannah: Okay, that was pure metal right there. I took down a movie monster… With my BARE HANDS... Yeesh, if I can take down a Graboid… Just imagine how Jason could feel. Or Freddy. Or anybody else. Except for the Xenomorphs; they're way too powerful for even me to take on solo.
Tough Turtles
Vikki was putting the finishing touches of a balloon object, all while on a giant rock.
"And there!" Vikki grinned, as she stepped back to admire her work…
It was a cannon, made out of balloons.
"I call thee… The balloon cannon!" Vikki declared.
Candace whistled at Vikki's feat. "Man, Vik; you've got the lung complicity, or what?"
"Yeah! Now, we just gotta wait for Quentin to return with the balls." Omelette said out loud.
They didn't have to wait too long, as Quentin ran back to the three, holding a bag.
"Quickly, dudes! Hatchet doesn't know I swiped his funnel and gunpowder to do this." Quentin said out loud.
Omelette held one of the balls up close. "Whoa, you constipated some medicine balls from him?" Omelette questioned.
Quentin blinked. "Er... What? No, I wouldn't do that; I still wonder how Cartman from South Park managed to stuff an entire theme park up his-"
"Hey, butts are amazing things." Omelette winked, as she licked her finger, and placed it on her own bum, making a sizzling sound.
Quentin looked at Omelette. "Well, you've got me there..."
"Don't question it; it's Omelette." Vikki replied back.
"Got my balls filled!" Candace announced.
"Mine's filled, as well!" Vikki added.
"Excellent. Now… All we gotta do is provide the perfect distraction…" Quentin pondered, as he looked at the three girls. "Candace, this soil is suitable for the Graboid to traverse around, right?"
"Correct-o, Quentin." Candace nodded.
"I'm ace at aiming. Vikki, being you somehow managed to get a fuse on a balloon cannon… You light up our firing friend." Quentin ordered.
"Hey, sometimes I surprise myself." Vikki shrugged.
"Now… All we need is a distraction..." Quentin pondered, as he looked at Omelette. "Hmm..."
"Level with me… What's the plan, again?" Omelette asked, all while balancing on Vikki's unicycle, all while holding clown horns.
"Simple. All you gotta do is roll around, while honking the horns. Soon enough, that Graboid's gotta come up for dinner, and when his mouth is open, we strike!" Quentin declared.
"Besides, it was your plan to blow up the Graboid." Vikki said out loud.
"...Sounds crazy." Omelette stated, before she grinned. "And crazy's my middle name. I'm in!"
She began to roll around on the unicycle, squeaking the horns, hoping that the Graboid would fall for it, all while Quentin was aiming the now loaded cannon, and Vikki was ready to light the fuse.
"Come on, bad butt… You said you got a craving for omelettes? Here I am..." Omelette taunted out loud.
At that moment, their Graboid, hearing the noise from Omelette's horns, started to lunge towards the Photophobic Girl.
"Come on, Omelette! Move!" Vikki ordered.
Omelette did some quick thinking, all while looking at the oncoming Graboid, with its jaw open…
"Crud; it may lunge towards any direction if I try moving..." Omelette thought, as an idea hit her.
Hopping with the unicycle, she managed to hop onto the Graboid, and ride it down its back.
"Now, Vikki and Quentin!"
Vikki lit the fuse, as the modified medicine ball flew into the Graboid's mouth, as it gulped it.
"HA! Never thought it would fall for it!" Quentin cheered out loud.
"Err..." Candace spoke up. "You guys did just launch an explosive into that thing, did ya?"
Quentin blinked, as he suddenly realized.
"SHIT! RUN!" Quentin yelled out loud, as he picked up the bag, and Vikki picked up her balloon cannon, and Omelette sped the other way.
A few seconds later…
BOOM!
The resulting explosion left behind what was left of an animatronic Graboid, among with a crater to boot.
The team walked over to the mess they made, as Quentin chuckled.
"I've… may have overdone it with the gunpowder..." Quentin stated. "Oops."
"Yep, that thing's done like dinner..." Vikki commented.
"And hey, we showed Michael Bay a thing or two about explosions!" Omelette said out loud.
"Now… Should we replace the gunpowder and medicine balls?" Candace questioned.
Omelette, Vikki, and Quentin sweat-dropped in nervousness.
"Oh… Right." The three said together, as they ran off.
Confessional: KA-BOOM!
Omelette: Besides, it's not like those medicine balls were important… Right?
Hatchet: -He is glaring at the camera- ...Those were rare, special edition, My Pretty Pegasus medicine balls…
Schemin' Squids
"So, what's the idea, Tina?" Ross asked.
"Well, that's simple." Tina answered, as she shot the portal gun at a back wall. She then presented the gun to Tina. "Thankfully, Allie added a way to adjust the size of the portal. Anyway, Luka? Since you're a swift runner, from what you told me and Whitney, think you can help in making a separate portal outside?"
"You got it!" Luka saluted. "But… how are you gonna keep our friend busy?"
Tina winked, as she looked at some stereo equipment. "Oh, I've got an idea..."
"I sure hope it's a good one..." Luka said, as Tina started to do some rewiring. Once she was done…
"Okay, you worm!" Tina yelled at the wall, as she took out a record. "Prepare to taste defeat at the hands of..."
…
…
"...The Electric Company?"
"Wow, who knew they made a soundtrack?" Ross questioned.
Tina pondered for a moment, before…
"Screw it; loud noise is loud, anyway." Tina said, as she started the record. After pumping the volume up high…
…
…
…
HEY, YOU GUYYYYYYYYYYYSSSSSSS!
That did it for the Graboid, as it smashed into the bunker.
"Get going, Luka! Me and Tina's got this!" Ross ordered, as Luka nodded, leaving the bunker, leaving Ross and Tina to take on the Graboid, two on one.
Luka ran for her life, while Tina and Ross was busy with their own Graboid, eventually reaching the cliff used for the first challenge. She looked down at the rocks below, and gave off a grin.
"Okay… Step one complete. Now, for step two: Getting a portal on the walls." Luka said to herself, as she lept off the cliff. Grabbing a hanging tree branch, she shot a portal at the cliff, opening a way for the Graboid to get through.
"Whoa, talk about a sudden draft..." Ross said out loud.
"Now, Tina!" Luka ordered.
Tina was in front of the Graboid, as she pushed her glasses in.
"Now you're playin' with power, hon." Tina grinned, as she took out a Bulbasaur plushie, and pressed it…
BULBA!
The loud noise coming from the plushie caused the Graboid to start lunging towards Tina. But due to not having any eyes, it didn't notice her jump out of the way, as it slid out of the bunker and through the bunker.
Now falling in the air, the Graboid knew it was screwed. It let out a screech of panic, as it smashed into the rocks at the bottom… It was defeated.
"Dang… He broke in and out towards the wrong place, huh?" Ross smirked.
"Yeah, no kidding." Tina added. "Game Over for that Graboid, huh?"
"Hey… Um… Can you guys help me?" Luka asked from above them, still hanging on the tree branch.
Confessional: Well, that's one way to take down a movie creature…
Luka: Yeah, Angel had Portal on PC… What of it? All we had to do was think with portals…
On the beach, all of the previously nommed campers were awaiting on the results, along with the others.
"Campers! We've seen various ways that one can defeat a Graboid! From the conventional routes, to just going all Smash Bros. on it." Chris explained. "But only one team came through with only one fatality, and they were..."
…
…
…
…
…
…
…
…
…
"...The Tough Turtles!"
The team members cheered out loud.
"Finally! Won one!" Omelette pumped her fist in celebration.
"This'll bring morale up quite a bit." Candace smiled.
"And your prize this time? All five Tremors movies on DVD!" Chris announced.
"Hot damn! Now I get to see these Assblasters in action!" Omelette grinned.
Vikki couldn't help but smile at her friend. "Always about the butts, huh?"
"As for the Schemin' Squids? You survived with three of your teammates left. So, you get second! And for the Flounders? Only Hannah survived, so your lucky streak ends tonight. One of you is about to go home… You've got until tonight to decide on who..." Chris explained, as he made his leave.
Flyin' Flounders
"Wow, our first loss as Flounders..." Bob said out loud, as the two were watching the waves crash on the beach. "What a bummer..."
"Yeah, I know. But now, we gotta decide who to nix from our team." Hannah explained, as the two did some thinking. "How about Gina? The challenges are gonna get rougher, and if there's a team swap, she could use them to gain the upper hand on the opposite team."
"Plus, she has a giant robot! And judging from the stories she told… She's proven to be a force to aliens; you think she would go full throttle on us." Bob nodded back. "Gina it is, then."
"Yeah, take her out while we got the chance." Hannah said. "I figure the other contestants can pull their own weight, anyway."
"Wow, our first work as an alliance." Bob nodded.
"Hey, we wanna make it to the end, don't we?" Hannah smiled. "And hey, I plan on taking you to the end. Then it's one on one in a fair fight."
"And I wouldn't have it any other way." Bob nodded back, as the two continued to watch the waves crash by the shore.
With Isaac and Yuki, the two were walking together, with Nerdi riding on Isaac's head. Isaac was eating some grapes, in the meantime, and was sharing them with Yuki.
"Wow, our first time voting as a team..." Isaac said out loud. "Man, this feels so dirty."
"Yeah, I guess you could say that, hon." Yuki replied back. "We've have been getting lucky escaping elimination. Guess at some point, we would have to lose one."
"So… Who do we even vote for?" Isaac questioned. "Early game me wouldn't had mind to went home."
"I'm… leaning towards voting for Gina, sweetie." Yuki answered back. "Cause who knows what kinda crazy she can bring in the future? Those inventions of hers, while innovated, can help her out, in the long run."
"It's always the smartiepants that are the toughest, huh?" Nerdi stated.
Isaac reached into his bag of grapes, and plucked one off, as it fell off of his hands. It soon rolled over to some bushes.
"It's just a little dirty; still edible." Isaac said out loud.
"Someone's forgotten the five second rule." Yuki commented, as she fiddled with her glasses.
At that moment, there was some rustling in the bushes, as what appeared to be a rainbow-scaled snake came slithering out.
"Whoa, psychedelic..." Yuki noted, looking at the snake. "What were in those grapes, hon?"
"Nothing; they're just seedless grapes. I can see the colors, too." Isaac nodded back.
"Well, story checks out, meow. I can see various colors from that snake, too." Nerdi added.
At that moment, the snake eyed the grape on the ground, and swallowed the grape in one gulp. The two teens and Nerdi gulped.
"Well… At least he'll keep the rat population down, right?" Nerdi asked out loud.
Confessional: Snake, stop kidding around! Snake? SNNNNAAAAKKKEEE!
Isaac: Yeah, best we don't piss off that snake. With it being colored like a rainbow, who knows what kinda toxins it could provide…
Yuki: Nobody will believe us… Still, it reminds me of when I colored a snake rainbow-colored in my jungle coloring book when I was five.
The Campfire
The Flounders were currently waiting for Chris to arrive. In the meantime, they were currently talking amongst each other.
"Wow, our first campfire together as a team..." Kagura noted.
"Yeah, talk about a buzzkill..." Maxwell nodded back.
At that moment, Chris came to the podium, sporting his signature grin.
"Flounders! You had a good thing going for you; what happened?" Chris questioned. "Nah, nevermind that. I'll just ask the questions."
"Sounds fair..." Ethan nodded.
"First off… Hannah! You're the only one that managed to survive the challenge. With you being the strongest of the contestants… Think you're in any danger of leaving tonight?" Chris questioned.
"Nah, I've no need to worry." Hannah answered. "After all, it was just one loss; we can always bounce back!"
"Right, question two goes to… Maxwell! Is there anything better you could have done?" Chris asked.
"Well… Not really." Maxwell shrugged. "Unless one would know how to One Punch a Graboid, we were more or less screwed."
"And finally… Isaac!" Chris announced. "You came here almost shy… Now look at your confident self! What's your secret?"
Isaac smiled gently. "Friendship..."
"Okay, with that said… It's time for you guys to vote!" Chris announced.
Confessional: One Flounder's about to be fried…
Bob: I'm going for Gina with this one. Please forgive me for this!
Kagura: Er… Maxwell-Kun has my vote.
Yuki: Gotta go for Gina… But hey, at least you can attempt a relationship with Peter at the Playa.
Maxwell: Hmm… Man, this is more tougher than defeating Perfect Cell… I vote for…
Once the last Flounder (Hannah) came back, Chris arrived with some marshmallows.
"Campers! You know the deal; if I call out your name, come up, and receive your marshmallow! Bob… You're safe."
Bob gave off a smile.
"Yuki? You're safe as well."
"Ethan..."
"Hannah..."
"Kagura..."
"Isaac..."
Maxwell and Gina were the last ones remaining, as both looked at each other.
"Good luck, Maxwell..." Gina tipped her hat.
Maxwell returned the gesture. "Same to you, Gina."
"Maxwell! Gina! This is the final marshmallow of the evening. And tonight, it goes to..."

"...Maxwell."
Maxwell caught his marshmallow, as he looked at Gina. "Er, I'm not feeling hungry… You want this?"
Gina smiled. "Oh, sure! Besides, I've played a fun game. Invented a lotta stuff..."
"Gina, you can bet that I'll protect the team." Hannah grinned.
Gina smiled back. "You do that… But for now, I've got a Playa to get to!"
She then held up a remote-like device.
"XAVITRON-Z!"
In almost an instant, Gina's robot flew down, and landed in the front of the team. She stood cooly at the door to her robot, as she tipped her hat.
"So long, Flounders!" Gina grinned, as she entered the Xavitron-Z, and in almost an instant, it took off, right into the horizion.
Chris was wide-eyed. "Um… You're all safe, for now?"
He then left the campfire, as the Flounders started to head back to their cabin…
At camp...
Isaac was sitting on the steps of his cabin, sewing up something, with Nerdi sitting on his shoulder.
"Man, for our first alliance vote, we did pretty good, meow!" Nerdi complimented. "Keep it up, man! You would do good on the actual Survivor!"
Isaac chuckled. "I don't know, Nerdi… I mean, Total Drama is tough; Survivor is like playing on Hard Mode..."
"I expect that talk from Tina… But for now, it's time to get YOU hooked up with your GF!" Nerdi declared. "First thing tomorrow morning? You're gonna bake her a cookie!"
Isaac raised an eyebrow. "Bake a cookie for her? Would it be more convenient to bake cookies for the rest of the class?"
"Well, there's that. Plus, it gives us an excuse to use something I found, meow!" Nerdi said, holding up a bag of 'experimental' flour.
Isaac read what was on the bag. "Er… This belonged to Alec. You sure this is safe?"
"Hey, did I win Safest Theme Park in Rollercoaster Tycoon, meow?" Nerdi answered back.
"...Right after save-scumming a Rollercoaster, and it crashing… 25 times." Isaac retorted.
"Hey, I wanted to make sure 'The Speed Demon' lived up to its name." Nerdi grinned back. "But yeah, we bake a badass cookie using that flour, and I'm sure she'll sweep you off your feet."
Isaac nodded. "Okay, you got me there. One cookie, coming up, tomorrow!"
Luka was busy drawing in her diary, as Tina came up to the Zoologist.
"Hey, Luka?" Tina asked. "Whatever happened to that Portal gun?"
Luka could only smile. "Well… I gave it to a good friend."
In the Medical Tents, Dana was going through Portals that were on the floor and ceiling… And was cheerful as a result.
"WEEEEE!" Dana squeed out loud, as Allie raised an eyebrow.
"But, you forgot my calimari lunch. How are you even enjoying this?!" Allie complained.
Chris is on the Dock of Shame, ready to give out the outro.
"And so, the Flounders finally lost one! Gina… Well, at least she saved gas on the Boat of Losers. But in either case… What kinda cookies will Isaac and Nerdi bake with Alec's flour? Will the Flounders bounce back, despite their loss? And what kinda butts will Omelette stare at next time? Find out next time, right here! On..."
"Total!"
"Drama!"
"DICTIONARY!"
Meanwhile…
Far away from Camp Wawanakwa, was a mansion… It appeared to be the size of a small suburb. Inside said mansion, laid some exotic animals, from giraffes to elephants… Which had a taxidermy job done to them…
And inside one of the rooms, a woman was doing a crossword puzzle, sitting back in a chair, laid with a bear skin. A glass of wine was on the endtable next to her.
The mood was quiet, until…
"Madam!" A male burst into the room.
"What is it?!" The lady snapped back, clearly ticked that she was interrupted.
"We got word that two rare animals are spotted on an island!" The male answered back.
"Well, spit it out! What island is it?!"
The male inhaled, ready to deliver the news…
…
…
…
…
"...They're on Wawanakwa Island, at the moment. They consist of a rainbow-colored snake, and an albino mongoose." The male answered.
The female gave off a raised eyebrow.
"You gotta be kidding me..."
"No, ma'am; I would never kid." The male replied back. "There really are two rare animals on that island."
The female gave off a sick grin.
"Tomorrow… Tell me more about this here… Wawanakwa." The lady ordered, as a thought hit her.
"Two rare animals? I'm gonna be even richer… As long as those Mopphaiers don't interfere with my money… They been a thorn at my side long enough… No matter what..."
…
…
"...They shall not take my money."

Maxwell - Gina
Yuki - Gina
Eliminated: Zero, Peter, Jeanette, Danny, Nuva, Francis, Alec, Gina
Gina, what can I say about her? She's unique in a way that no other Total Drama character had prior… Such as…
* Having a giant robot. Even though that didn't do much in challenges, or the like.
* Starting up a possible coupling for one of my characters.
But in the end, it was her inventing that caused her elimination… But her role isn't done just yet! You'll have to wait until the next Playa episode to see for yourself…
NEXT TIME: It's a party, and the contestants will wanna cry… When THEY have to host it!
Gina: See ya next mission!
