Thank you for all of your feedback, reviews, and advice.
Oh boy, the break is making me a little lazy…I blame the binge-watching shows (Running Man has more than 250 episodes and each episode is about two hours!) and rereading manga from the start. (JoJo's Bizarre Adventure and Hajime No Ippo)
Some questions won't be answered to avoid the spoilers and sorry if I miss any of your questions.
Coldblue: 1) Well, that will be reveal in the epilogue chapter so you have to wait and see. 2) No, the dream scene is there for a reason…Or not? Who know?
Knight: Yes, he knows about it. He don't mind it since his daughter is so innocent and pure that she don't have any idea what people do with the marriage.
Anyway, it's time for the thirty-seven chapter of WDL. Hope you enjoy it.
Friendly reminder: Some characters must be OOC and my grammars are not perfect so I may miss some or most mistakes. Next chapter might have a little delay or not. I'm trying my best.

Chapter 37: Odyssey: Wait, We're What?!
(Bridge)
"Last time on Total Drama Odyssey, the teams went through several challenges and let's say that some people just got scarred by a several certain events." Chris chuckled, "And it look like that the Killer Snail managed to stay in the game a little longer while several travelers have to row all way to home in their loser-boat. During these challenges, we just saw that the love rivals accidentally angered Maeve for taking her daddy's attention away and she just become their obstacle! Kinda odd that she always show up when some people tried to confessing to Naruto…"
"I say that she have some kind of radar in her body." Chef grunted, "Something that warn her that someone is gonna confess to brat."
"Yeah, I agreed with you there." The host nodded before he clear his throat, "Here are the questions…Will the snails stay strong or not? Will Maeve stay mad at the girls? If some of you remember, what is Phase Two that I'm talking about? What kind of challenges will the travelers face? Who will take the loser-boat? Find out tonight on Total Drama Odyssey!"
"Attention, maggots!" The cooker shouted into the PA's microphone, "We are going to Ireland so get your asses out of your rooms now!"
"Thank, Chef." Chris rubbed his hands manically with an evil grin, "Let's start the Phase Two now. I really can't wait to see their faces."
(Ireland)
The travelers stretch their bodies out with a yawn and they look around, trying to find their host. "Ugh…" Heather groaned with crossed arms, "First, Chef just wake us up and force us to go out without a breakfast…And we have been waiting here for hours!"
"Maybe he's in a meeting?" Cody rubbed his head.
"Yeah, it did happen a few times before." Sky tapped her chin as some travelers agreed with her before their host finally shows up and several travelers become worried as soon as they notice his evil smirk. The travelers notice that Chef was pushing two large boxes up to the group and Noah was about to ask but the host just cut him off.
"Before we start our challenge, I have few announcements." Chris cleared his throat, "First, two travelers are coming back today! Please welcome back…" He gestured at the boxes as they fall apart to revealing two familiar faces, "Max and Owen!"
"Woohoo!" Owen cheered as several travelers cheered for the oaf, "I'm back in the game!"
"Vengeance shall be mine!" Max glared at the travelers, "You thought you were safe but you're wrong because I'm ba…"
"Yeah, yeah, still more announcements to make…" The host snapped his fingers several times, "Second…"
"Owen and Max should go to us!" Courtney cut the host off, "It's only logical that they should join us because…"
"No, let me tell you something…" Chris glared at the CIT, "The second announcement is that the four teams are merging in…"
"Wait, what?" Gwen gasped with her fellow travelers, "This early?! There are twenty-eight people and…"
"CAN I PLEASE FINISH MY SENTENCE?!" The host threw his hands up as the travelers stared at him, "…Thank you. Where was I? Oh yeah." He cleared his throat, "The four teams are merging into two teams! And guess what?"
"…What?" Scott crossed his arms with a scoff.
"It's heroes vs. villains!" Chris grinned as several travelers raised their eyebrows, "Villains, if I call your names out, please stand over there." He pointed at his right side, "…Alejandro, Heather, Amy, Jo, Scott, Duncan, Courtney, Blaineley, Naruto…"
"Wait!" Rodney raised his hand, "Why is Naruto on the villain's team?!"
"Yeah, he's right." Duncan nodded, "It's true that he did trick us few times before in few challenges but that really don't make him a villain."
"It's because of his host role in the Revenge of Island season." The host replied with a smirk, "He was really evil than me."
"That's true, dattebayo." Naruto scratched his head.
"Yeah, that and he did something on my plane in the World Tour season that he shouldn't have done." Chris glared at the parents as they just rubbed their necks sheepishly, "I have to burn the plane down after the end of World Tour season…Anyway, back to the name calls…Bridgette, Ezekiel, Max, Mike and Harold!"
"Why me?" Mike blinked confusingly.
"Because of Mal." The host replied and the unpredictable man gulped nervously before he glances at his new team as they all give him an evil smirk.
'At least I'm not the only good guy since Naruto, Ezekiel and Bridgette are there.' The unpredictable man sighed, he assume that the feral man was alright since he didn't do anything bad at all.
"Hey, I'm not a villain!" Harold raised his hand, "I'm the good guy!"
"Say the guy that just rigged the voting several times." Chris smirked at the gulping nerd before he glance at the remaining travelers, "Heroes, go to my left side when I call your names out…Gwen, Dawn, Tyler, Cody, Zoey, DJ, Noah, Geoff, Jasmine, Izzy, Ella, Rodney, Sky and Owen."
"All right!" The oaf grabbed several of his new teammates in a bear hug, "That's gonna be so awesome!"
"My back!" Noah cried out with Cody and Tyler.
The host turn his head to the villain's team as he glance at his clipboard, "Villains, your team's name is Libo Anguis, which mean…"
"Farting Snake?" Courtney raised her eyebrow as the host blinked at his clipboard and an orange icon of farting snake appears right over their heads.
"Wait, no red this time?" The redhead grinned, "All right, about time you give me some orange…" The icon suddenly turn red, "COME ON, DATTEBAYO!"
"Psyche." Chris chuckled at the grumbling redhead before he glance at the hero's team, "Heroes, your team's name is Erbrechen Bar and it mean…"
"Vomiting Bear?!" Cody muttered as the green icon of vomiting bear appeared over his team's heads.
"…Why do I keep using the online translator?" The host tossed the clipboard over his shoulder with a deadpan expression, "…Anyway…Today we will have two separate challenges, one reward challenge and one elimination challenge! Our first challenge is…" He gestured at the ten rows of bars as several travelers notice that the bars were lower than the first bar, "Limbo Race! Five players from each team will race each other through this course and they have to go under the bars instead of jumping over! If you bump into the bar, you have to do it again until you pass it! The team with five racers that cross the finish line win the reward! You may choose your players!" The teams discussed with each other for a while until one of them finally speak up.
"Alejandro, Naruto, Heather, Ezekiel and Max will do it." Courtney crossed her arms with a huff.
"We just chose Sky, Izzy, Zoey, Geoff and Tyler." Gwen muttered.
"Runners, please take your place and wait for my signal." Chris smirked.
(Confessional)
"Oh wow, I never thought that he would merge four teams into two teams…" DJ fidgeted, "That never happened before."
*Static*
"I can't believe they put me on same team with Courtney." Heather grumbled, "I swear if she tell me that she'll sue me, I'm gonna…"
*Static*
"We have to cut the footage short because it was pretty graphical and very detailed." The host chuckled.
"Get ready…" Chris held his air horn up as the racers lined up in front of the starting line, "And…GO!" The racers quickly take off and they all clear the first several bars without any problem until some racers reach the fifth bar.
"I don't think I can get this low." Geoff attempted to walk under the bar, only to knock it down and he quickly set it back up before he try again. Max was the only one that doesn't have any problem with the fifth bar and all he has to do is just tilt his head back a little as he walk under the bar.
"Ha, this simple-minded challenge can't hold me down because I'm the greatest villain ever!" Max gloated before Izzy knock him down as she run past him, followed by Ezekiel, Naruto, Sky and Alejandro. "Why you…" The aspiring villain growled, "I will have my revenge, you…" Heather and Zoey accidentally ran over him, followed by Geoff and Tyler. "REVENGE!" He roared as he leaped up on his feet and the racers keep running under several bars, several racers was still having hard time with the last several bars.
"Come on, Tyler, you can do it!" Tyler encouraged himself as he tried to get under the lowest bar but he failed to clear it and it took him a while. Sky and Alejandro cross the finish line at same time, followed by Naruto, Izzy, Zoey and Ezekiel.
"Stupid bar…" Heather grumbled under her breath as she makes another attempt to get under the last bar and her attempt was successful. She quickly crosses the finish line with Tyler and Geoff almost cross the finish line but Max leap across the line with a furious shout.
"Snake win the reward challenge!" The host announced as the said team cheered together, "And they get gold…Toothpick!"
"Say what?!"Alejandro raised his eyebrow before Chef gives him the gold toothpick, "To some people, that's barely gold…"
"Hey, the limbo challenge was really stupid because one of the producers was kinda dumb and he wants to see it happen." Chris rolled his eyes, "Be glad that you get some gold…Anyway, let's go to the next location so we can start our elimination challenge!"
(Pool)
The first thing that the travelers notice was a floating platform with two large circles and several travelers realize it with an annoyed groan. "Today's challenge…" Chris smirked at the teams, "Find your mole in other team!"
"…WHAT?!" Everyone cried out, glancing at each other.
"That's right!" The host laughed, "I just put a mole in each team and guess what? The moles themselves do not know that they are mole!"
"So that mean one of us does not belong and we have to guess who the mole is?" Noah raised his eyebrow, "Like the snakes have to find a solo snake in the bear's team?"
"Yes." Chris nodded, "The teams will face three challenges and the team that win the challenge will earn a hint card then at the end of the challenge, you will guess who's belong to your team! The team that finds their member first wins the challenge and the team that don't guess right will face an elimination ceremony…Plus they will have to sleep in the Dangerous Room!"
"…Dangerous Room?" Jo blinked, "I didn't see it anywhere in the ship."
"Oh, you'll see it pretty soon." The host snickered before he gestures at the platform, "Your first challenge is Water Battle! Five people from each team will fight their opponents and try to shove them into the water to get them eliminated from the game. Last one standing will earn a hint card for his or her team! Gwen, Dawn, Cody, DJ and Noah will play for the Vomiting Bear and they will go against the Farting Snake players, Amy, Duncan, Blaineley, Mike and Courtney!"
"Look like it's gonna be a snap." Duncan teased with a smirk.
"We'll see." Gwen blew her hair up.
(Confessional)
"I think it's pretty oblivious who the bear on the snake's team is." Geoff grinned, "It's Naruto or Mike…Or is it Bridgette? I wonder why Chris put her on the villain's team?"
*Static*
"She kissed Alejandro and broke Naruto's heart during the third season, which was kinda villainous." Chris shrugged his shoulder, "That and there was not a lot of 'villains' left in the show."
"The water battle will start…" Chris blew his air horn, "NOW!" Duncan and Courtney quickly run across the platform before they wrestle with the bears and they almost push Cody and DJ into the water but Gwen and Noah run up to them, managed to rescue DJ as the geek fall into the water. Courtney was about to gloat and before she know it, Dawn just push her into the water.
"We have to take Duncan and Mike out right away." Gwen whispered to her team as they backpedalled away from the snakes.
"Easier said than done." Noah muttered under his breath before Amy suddenly shoves the bookworm into the water and DJ quickly pushes the evil twin off the platform. Mike tried to push the Jamaican giant but DJ somehow manage to trip the unpredictable man, sending him into the water and before DJ know it, Blaineley just stumble into his back as they fall into the water, courtesy of the goth woman.
"What the…" Duncan widened his eyes after he tossed the bookworm off the platform and he barely react as Dawn and Gwen shove him into the pool.
"Vomiting Bear win the first challenge and they get one hint card!" Chris announced as Chef hands the card to the bears and they glance at the object, it read 'Unlikely'.
"…That doesn't even help us at all." Zoey scratched her cheek nervously.
(Confessional)
"I can think of few unlikely people in the other team." Tyler rubbed his neck, "…Is Naruto unlikely person to be on the villain team or is it Mike or Ezekiel or Bridgette or…"
*Static*
"He listed everyone." Chef deadpanned.
"Our next challenge is Flying Chair!" The host gestured at the flying chairs as the travelers glanced at the panting interns, "Geoff and Scott will play Rock-Paper-Scissor and whoever lose the round will send one of their four members fly away into the pool! Jasmine, Owen, Rodney and Ella will take their seats with Bridgette, Harold, Jo and Max!"
"You better not throw the challenge on purpose!" Jo growled at the scheming farmer.
"Yeah, yeah, I know." Scott rolled his eyes as the players take their seats, "Can we start the game now?"
"Yes, you may start now." Chris smirked and the scheming farmer throws his hand out with the party man. Scott chooses paper and Geoff has rock, Owen screams out as he flings into the pool.
"I won't lose the next round!" Geoff muttered before he throw scissor out, only to paled as Scott reveal that he just pick the rock and Jasmine land in the pool with a cry.
"Ha, we're gonna…" Harold was about to say something but the chair flings him into the water, followed by Bridgette and the scheming farmer grumble under his breath as the party man smirked at him.
"Lucky guess." The scheming farmer muttered as they throw their hands out and Rodney fling up in air before he land in the water, it turn out that Geoff pick rock and Scott have paper.
"Ooh, will that be the end of the Bear or will they make a comeba…" The host said before Ella scream out as she fly into the pool, "…Never mind, the Snake win the second challenge and they get their first hint card!"
"What does it say?" Bridgette asked as she dries herself off with the towel.
"Four-letter name…" Heather replied with a raised eyebrow.
"That narrowed down to eight people, dattebayo." Naruto rubbed his chin.
"Let's go to the next location for your third and final challenge!" Chris walked away with a chuckle.
(Park)
"Tug-of-War!" The host gestured at the rope as several travelers raised their eyebrow at the mud pit, "There's no need to explain the rules since everyone know how to play tug-of-war…Until you're pretty dumb and been living under the rock."
"We get it, we get it." Noah rolled his eyes.
"The bear's team will be Zoey, Gwen, Tyler, Sky and Izzy and the snake's team is Courtney, Ezekiel, Heather, Naruto and Alejandro." Chris grinned, "Grab the rope and wait for my signal!"
"You're going down." Heather glared at the bears as they hold the rope up.
"I don't think so." Gwen shot back.
"And..." The host blew his air horn, "TUG!" The teams start to pull the rope back with several grunts and it wasn't long enough until the bear's team slowly moves toward the pit.
"PULL HARDER!" Tyler shouted out and his team tried to pull back but it ended in vain as they all fall into the pit.
"Over already?" The host blinked, "Oh well, the Farting Snake win the second hint card!"
"It said male?" Courtney glanced at her hint card.
"Now it's time for you to guess who does actually belong to your team!" Chris grinned, "Let's start with Vomiting Bear. If you guess wrong, Snake will take a turn to guess."
"Unlikely, unlikely…" Geoff tapped his chin, "Um…Is it Naruto?"
"Nope." The host smirked, "Snake?" The snakes were in deep thought as they tried to figure it out.
"I guess it's Co…" The CIT was about to say something but the punk cut her off.
"Is it Owen?" Duncan said.
"What?!" Courtney scowled, "No, it's not him! He never did anything bad…"
"That's right!" Chris chuckled, "Owen, go join the snake…Max, please go stand next to the bear!"
"…SAY WHAT?!" Everyone cried out.
"I'm so confusing…" Owen walked over to the snake's team with confusingly blink.
"I don't belong to the goody-two-shoes team!" Max shouted out as Chef forced him to join the bear team.
"It's because that Owen did some evil work for me during the Action season as my spy, remember?" The host chuckled, "Max never did anything evil at all…" He snickered as the aspiring villain screamed out in rage, "Anyway…Vomiting Bear, since you don't guess right, I'll see you at the elimination ceremony."
"Huh, that's very unlikely." Gwen glanced at the shouting aspiring villain and almost everyone nod at her.
(Chrisship: Deck)
"You have casted your votes and I have the result." Chris smirked at the bears, "If you don't get the shrimp, you will be the one that will go home tonight. The travelers that get the fresh shrimp are…" He called their names out as Chef tossed the shrimps at the travelers, "Dawn, Cody, Max, Gwen, Zoey, Jasmine, DJ, Noah, Ella, Rodney and Sky." He glanced at Tyler and Geoff, "The final shrimp goes to…"
"…" The party man fidgeted nervously.
"…" The clumsy jock gulped.
"…Tyler!" The host announced, "Geoff, grab your cash bag and hop into the sea!"
"Oh, man, that's totally suck." Geoff sighed, "I thought that was my…" The cooker suddenly tosses him into the lifeboat and the boat just drop into the sea without any warning.
"PARTY'S OVER!" Chef shouted.
"Oh yeah, bears, it's your curfew time so you better turn in now." Chris glanced at the bears.
"But it's nine!" Rodney raised his hand, "That's too early for us to go to bed..."
"It's not too early if you are going to stay in the Dangerous Room." The host replied with an evil smirk.
"You kept saying dangerous room but I don't see it anywhere on this ship." Jasmine muttered.
(Cargo Hold)
Chef click the locker on the chain and he walk away, whistling a tune as he wipe his hands. The cooker ignored the banging and crying of the bears as they try to get out of the cargo hold. "Now that's the Dangerous Room." Chris chuckled, "Don't let the crates smash you in your sleep!"
(Dining Room)
"I'm so psyched to be back here." Owen chuckled as his teammates ate their dinner, "And isn't it so awesome that we're on same team, Al?"
"…Very awesome…" Alejandro muttered lowly with a twitching eyebrow.
"I still can't believe that Chris put us in two teams now." Duncan grunted, "I don't mind it but I do for a good reason."
"I'm the captain of this team since I'm CIT and I have a lot of experience as the captain." Courtney glared at her new teammates, "And you better not lose any challenges or you're gonna pay!"
"And that's the reason that I was talking about." The punk deadpanned and Naruto was about to say something but he feel a tug on his shoulder before he glance down at his daughter.
"Daddy, where's mommy?" Maeve asked.
"Um…" Naruto scratched his head, "…She's um…hang out with her friends for the night?"
"Like sleepover?" The little girl blinked with a tilted head.
"…Hai, it's a sleepover, dattebayo." The redhead chuckled nervously.
"Oh yeah, and they are having great time right now." Heather smirked cruelly.
(Cargo Hold)
"That really bites." Gwen grumbled as she pulled her legs up to her chest and she glance around until she spot Ella, the princess wannabe was fidgeting with her fingers nervously. "Ella, are you okay there?"
"O-O-Oh, yes, I'm fine." Ella smiled, "Just having hard time trying to get comfortable in this place…Only if the crates stop moving around too much."
"Yeah, only if." The goth woman nodded before she turns her head to the princess wannabe, "…Can I ask you a question?"
"Sure." The princess wannabe glanced at her.
"…How come you're not jealous when one of the girls tries to get Naruto's attention?" Gwen asked, "I mean, you're one of few people that don't get jealous so I'm just curious about that."
"Well, um…" Ella rubbed her neck, "How can I explain it? Um…You can say it's the love, all I care about is his happiness. I know that in the end, he will have to choose one of us and I will accept it as long as he's happy…For now, all I can do is to make a lot of good memories with him. I really love him."
"Wow, I don't know you have this side." The goth woman stared at the princess wannabe, "You must really care a lot about him." The princess wannabe nodded with a lightly smile, "…So…Um…Tell me a bit about yourself." It was good idea to have a small chat since there was nothing to do in the cargo hold, thank to her stupid host.
(Dining Room)
Several days went by and the travelers were having their breakfast as the punk raise his eyebrows at the rugged bear team. "What happened to you guys last night?" Duncan asked with a smirk.
"There were a lot of rough waves…" Jasmine groaned tiredly, "And the crates kept falling on us, we barely get any sleep."
"Suck to be you right now." Scott snickered with some of his teammates.
"Wait until you lose the challenge…" Max growled lowly and someone was about to speak up but the loudspeaker rang out with a loud feedback.
"Travelers, we are about to reach Africa and you better finish your breakfast before Chef gonna kick you all out!" Chris' voice chuckled.
"How long will it take?" Rodney asked.
"NOW!" Chef suddenly kicked the door opened with a roar, "GET YOUR ASSES OFF MY SHIP NOW!" The travelers quickly run off with a bloodcurdling scream as the cooker chase them down with the cleavers.
(Africa)
Chris laugh at the panting travelers as they stand in front of him, "Did you have a good run? I know Chef do."
"Fuck you…" Duncan panted heavily.
"Your challenge is…" The host ignored the punk as he gave them a cheesy grin, "The Relay Race!" He gestured at the mountain's trail, "There are fourteen flags and each member will take their place…"
"Wait, there are only thirteen of us." DJ pointed out.
"Oh, yes, one of you will have to run past the next flag until you reach the next player." Chris smirked at the groaning bears, "Where was I? Oh yeah! You have to tag the next racer by passing the sandbag baton!"
"…Sandbag?" Mike raised his eyebrow before the large sandbag crash into him as he falls down with a painful grunt, courtesy of Chef.
"Discuss with your team about the order of racers and take your place…" The host rubbed his chin, "I should tell you guys that you better watch out for some obstacles but you know me."
"Yeah, you won't say anything about them." Sky deadpanned.
(Confessional)
"Aww, I hate running." Owen groaned, "It always gets me tired…And hungrier. Way more hungry…Hmm, I think I might raid the fridge again."
*Static*
"You better not raid my fridge." Chef growled deadly with crossed arms.
Chris glance at Max and Owen as he held the gun up, "Get on your mark…" The racers tensed up, "Get set…" The host looked up in the sky to make sure it was clear, "…GO!" He fired the gun up in air as the racers ran off with the sandbag and the host smirks to himself before the blue crane fall down on his feet. "OH, COME ON! YOU GET TO KIDDING ME!"
"So far, so good." Owen ran up the slope with a heavy breath.
"Shut up, you moron." Max grumbled under his breath with heavy breath, "I don't care if it's good or not as long as I pass this stupid bag to Tyler."
"But you get to admit it." The oaf glanced at the aspiring villain as they kept racing each other, "It's sweet because we don't run into any tr…" He took one step before something explode, launching him up in air with a bloodcurdling scream. "AAAAPPPP!"
"Until now." The aspiring villain hopped around nervously to avoid the buried mines before he step on it, launching the screaming aspiring villain up in air.
Tyler glances up in air with a raised eyebrow before his eyes shift to his opponent, "Harold, did you hear that or is it just me?"
"Hear what?" Harold blinked confusingly.
"Something like scream…" The clumsy jock was about to finish his sentence and before they know it, the bodies land on them with a painful groan.
"H-H-Here, take it and go…" Owen moaned as he passed the sandbag to the nerd and Max also pass his bag on to the clumsy jock.
"G-G-Got it…" The nerd got up on his feet and he runs away, followed by the clumsy jock.
"…Why did we decide to come back here?" Max groaned out.
"…Because it's awesome?" The oaf groaned out, earning a glare from the aspiring villain.
"Come on, Tyler, you can do it!" Jasmine hollered from the distance as Tyler and Harold slowly race each other across the logs, suspending over the pit and they swear that they can hear several savage growls within the pit.
"Is it me or did I just hear lions?" Jo raised her eyebrow and the nerd took several steps before the lion leap out with a snarl, causing the nerd and clumsy jock to scream out as they ran across the logs with haste.
"TAKE IT AND RUN!" Tyler threw the sandbag at the giant woman and she caught it as she start to run away from the group, never notice that the clumsy jock just fall into the pit with the nerd after Harold give Jo the sandbag.
"I hope the next flag's obstacle is not bad." The giant woman muttered to herself, her team decides that she will run up to two flags. It wasn't long enough until the swinging boulders come out of nowhere and Jasmine quickly dodges the boulders, she didn't know that Jo was right behind her before one of the boulders just knock the jockette away. Jasmine kept run until she spot the next flag and she speed up, running past Scott.
"Where the hell is Jo?" Scott crossed his arms with a scowl and as soon as he finished his sentence, the said traveler finally shows up before she tosses the sandbag to the scheming farmer.
After a while, Jasmine just spot Rodney in the distance as he stand next to the flag with Ezekiel and she glance around with a raised eyebrow. "No obstacle or anything?" Jasmine whispered to herself before she hears something right behind her and she glance over her shoulder to see Chef in his jeep, wielding a large cannon with an evil smirk.
"It's your supper time!" Chef fired the large meatball at the screaming giant woman as she tried to run faster before she manage to hand the sandbag over to the country man and the cooker turn his jeep around, earning a raised eyebrow from the panting giant woman.
"You're not…" Jasmine panted, "Gonna chase…Rodney?"
"Nah, I only chase you and scheming maggot in this part." The cooker grunted as he spotted Scott, running up to the flag and the cooker fire several meatballs at the screaming scheming farmer.
"We're so gonna win this one." Rodney jogged with his sandbag with a wide grin, he was glad that his team is getting a huge lead on the snakes and he bet that his team won't spend another night in the cargo hold. He kept jogging for a while until a blur speed past him, "What the…?!" The country man cried out, it turn out that Scott manage to give his sandbag to the feral man and Ezekiel ran faster so he can overtake Rodney in the race. "Oh no, you don't!" He chased the feral man down before he step on several mines, launching him up in air more than once.
(Confessional)
The soot-covered country man stares at the camera for a while until he raised his index finger up before he coughs some soot out.
Blaineley stumble on the rolling log as she tried to get across the piranha-infested lake and she never notice that Cody just slip off the rolling log, falling into the water with a bloodcurdling scream.
Sky hop across several platforms, dodging several swinging objects and she wince as soon as she hear Mike's high-pitched scream. It turned out that one of the swinging rock just smash into the unpredictable man's groin, causing him to fall into the mud pit.
Naruto was waiting at the flag with Noah as they look around for their teammates with the sandbags until the redhead notice Bridgette in the distance and he start to get ready to grab the sandbag. The surfer woman gets closer and before they know it, she trip on her feet and she bump into the redhead as they fall down together. Their faces turn red as they stare at each other, it turn out that they accidentally kiss each other before they quickly leap up to their feet and they just stare at each other for a while until they realize that they still have a challenge to do. "Here!" Bridgette shoves the sandbag into the redhead's hands.
"Thank!" Naruto ran away and they both don't notice that the bookworm was shaking his head with an eyeroll.
The Chef-robot chase Dawn and Heather down the slope and they kept duck under the chainsaw as the robot swinging its weapon around.
Alejandro swing across the small canyon and he land on other side without any problem, never notice that DJ just fall into the river with a bloodcurdling scream.
Chris and Chef were standing at the finish line, waiting for the final racers to show up and the host spots someone in the distance as the person approaching the line. "About time someone finally show up!" Chris chuckled as the runner quickly picked the paces up, "And the winner is…" He waited until the person crossed the line, "Duncan! Which mean the Farting Snake is the winner of the challenge and the today's loser is the Vomiting Bear! I can't wait to see who'll lose his or her lunch tonight at the elimination ceremony."
"Wait, it's…" Gwen showed up with the rest of the travelers as they panted heavily, "An elimination ceremony?"
"Yep." The host grinned before he raise his index finger up as soon as he notice that a snake member was about to say something, "And before the snakes ask about the reward…There's no reward."
"Dammit." Courtney growled angrily.
(Chrisship: Deck)
"So far, Max, Dawn, Noah, Gwen, Zoey, Cody, Jasmine, Izzy, Sky and Ella have their shrimps." Chris glanced at Rodney, Tyler and DJ, "There are two shrimps and three travelers…DJ get his shrimp." Chef tossed the shrimp at the relived Jamaican giant, "And the final shrimp goes to…"
"…" The clumsy jock scratched his head nervously.
"…" The country man crossed his fingers.
"…Tyler!" The host announced as he tossed the cash bag to the groaning country man, "Rodney, here's your seven hundred and fifty thousand bucks!"
"No hard feeling, fel…" Rodney gave his former team a goofy grin before the cooker suddenly toss him into the lifeboat and the country man cried out as the boat drop into the ocean.
"Did you work out?" Chris raised his eyebrow at the cooker, he was sure that it would be hard to toss a giant man into a lifeboat.
"Yeah, I do." Chef shrugged his shoulder with a grunt.
(Hallway)
Bridgette walk down the hallway until she spot a familiar face and she call him out with a wave. "Hey, Naruto." Bridgette smiled, "What are you doing?"
"Oh, Bridgette." Naruto grinned, "Nothing, just getting some candies for Ma-chan, dattebayo. What about you?"
"I'm just going to the dining room for a dinner." The surfer woman replied, "Do you want to go with…" All of sudden, she feel like something was drilling something into her head and she slowly peek over her shoulder to see that Maeve was glare at her from the corner. She slowly turns her head back to the redhead, "…Um…Naruto, is she still mad at us?"
"Hai." The redhead scratched his head with a lightly chuckle, "Don't worry about it, she'll get over it pretty soon, dattebayo…I think…Anyway, do you want to walk with me since it's on the way?"
"Yes, let's go." Bridgette smiled before she glance over her shoulder nervously, she swear that she just hear a growl of the tiger.
(Cargo Hold)
"D-D-Don't eat us, Tora…" Cody shivered with Tyler as they stared at the growling tiger in the cage, they don't understand why the creature just growl at them out of blue.
"She won't eat you guys." Dawn replied.
Several hours went by and the bears were bored. "I hope we'll win the next challenge." Zoey sighed softly.
"Don't worry, we will." Sky patted her shoulder.
"Indeed." The petite woman nodded as they almost jumped at her sudden appearance but they managed to hold it in since they have been getting used to the petite woman by now and they all just sit there in silence for a while. "…Ah, do you want to play twenty questions?" Dawn asked and the aspiring Olympian traded a glance with the indie woman.
"Sure, I'm up for it." The Cree woman replied and Zoey agreed with her.
"Here's the first question…" Dawn stared at them, "…What part do you like about Naruto?"
"O-O-Oh, um…" The indie woman stammered with red face, "I-I-I like his personality and how he always looks at positive side…And many things…"
"Same here, I also like how sweet and kind he is to everyone." The Cree woman said with red face, "He always treat everyone same and he never did anything bad to them, beside some pranks…Not to mention how good he is with the children." Zoey nodded at her comment before the blushing Cree woman glance at the petite woman, "What about you?"
"…Everything, I love everything about him." The petite woman said with expressionless face, "Ah, and I love his lips because it's so warm…It's always warm each time I kiss him."
"…Is it just me or did she just blush?" Zoey whispered to Sky.
"…I think I also saw that?" Sky whispered back as they tried to read Dawn's face.
(Hallway)
Several days later, the travelers were in deep sleep until the feedback woke them all up and they step out of their rooms with weary sighs. "Travelers, we are now in United Kingdom or some of you call it Britain!" Chris' voice rang out of the loudspeaker, "Hurry and get ready!"
"I always keep wondering why Britain have different names?" Owen scratched his head.
"Who care about stupid names?" Blaineley scoffed, "I just want to sleep in a little longer…"
"Same here but I bet Chris gonna sic Chef on us." Heather deadpanned and several travelers nodded their heads.
(United Kingdom)
"Ooh, I hope we can go visit the castle again." Ella gushed and someone was about to say something but their host show up with a cheesy grin.
"Today, we will have two reward challenges and it's gonna be fun." Chris gestured at a large obstacle course as several travelers raised their eyebrows, "The first challenge is 'Can You Survive Video Game'!"
"Really?" Noah crossed his arms, "Now you're ripping the video games off, too?"
"I'm not ripping anything off, just borrowing some ideas." The host replied with an evil grin, "Four players from each team will race each other though the course…First, they will shoot ten space invaders!" The pixelated targets popped up from the ground randomly, "Second, they have to break a lot of bricks until they find the mushroom!" The travelers glanced at the brick blocks that resembled a certain block from the Super Mario game, "Then they have to sneak around without getting caught by the henchmen…" The masked interns walked under several suspending platforms, "Then they have to jump on the baddies…" The robot turtles paced back and forth, "And finally, they will climb up several platforms as they dodge the barrels that King Chef will send out…" Chef roared from the top of the towering platforms.
"…That's so from Donkey King game." Cody stared at the final obstacle with a deadpan expression.
"The first person to cross the finish line wins the challenge and his or her team will get a reward." Chris grinned, "The players are…Izzy, Sky, Jasmine and Tyler from Vomiting Bear and they will face against Courtney, Owen, Amy and Duncan from Farting Snake! Take your place!"
(Confessional)
"First he just ripped some shows off and now he just ripped some video games off." Jo crossed her arms as she rolled her eyes, "What's next? Books?"
*Static*
"Who the hell read books those days?" Chris muttered, "No one read books anymore and it's bored…Name one person that read a book!"
*Static*
Noah licks his thumb to turn a page in his book.
"Ooh, ooh, I can't wait to shoot the aliens down with big gun!" Izzy giggled to herself as she stands at the starting line with the racers and several travelers just rolled their eyes at her comment. "I really hope they can blow up! I totally love huge boom!"
"I don't think these invaders will explode on us…" Amy muttered, "…I think?"
"Game is…" The host blew his air horn as the racers quickly took off, "ON!" The crazy woman was first to reach the shooting obstacle and she quickly pick her gun up, followed by Duncan and Jasmine. They scan the field for any invaders as the rest of the racers caught up to them and the first invader pop up out of nowhere before Izzy shot at the invader, causing it to explode right away. Before the travelers know it, they get shower by falling objects, courtesy of the destroyed invader.
"What the hell!" Scott picked an object up as he rubbed his sore forehead, "Lego?"
"Yeah, we have to build something that can look more pixelated." Chris shrugged his shoulders and Own blow his first invader up with Courtney, Amy and Sky as the punk attempt to take another invader out after he hit two invaders. It wasn't long enough until Jasmine complete the shooting obstacle and she quickly run up to the next obstacle, followed by Izzy, Duncan and Courtney.
"How can we break this block?" Duncan glanced around with a raised eyebrow until he spot the sledgehammers, "…Bingo." He quickly grabs one of the sledgehammers and he smashes it on the first block, cracking it open as it reveals a bomb. "What the fuck…" The bomb exploded right in his face as the rest of the racers ran up to the blocks.
"Oh yeah, I forget to mention that some blocks are rigged with traps." The host smirked evilly, "Good luck with the mushroom…"
"Yay, I found one!" Izzy tossed her mushroom up in air before she run away with a giggle.
"…That was weird." Chris muttered to himself.
(Confessional)
"You know what's really annoying?" Jo crossed her arms, "Chris kept throwing traps at us and he always say that he forget to tell us each time that happened."
*Static*
"You should get used to it by now." The host smirked cruelly.
Sky destroy the brick block, only to scream out as she run away from the fire-breathing plant and several travelers just glance at the laughing host.
Owen peek over the platforms to make sure that the interns wasn't paying attention and he jump on the next platform, only to have it break apart as he fall down with a scream. He land on something soft and he release his breath. "I'm so lucky that I land on something soft…" Owen grinned.
"KENNY!" One of the masked interns cried out and the oaf glanced down to see that he just landed on the poor intern.
"Whoops, my bad!" The oaf giggled nervously before he accidentally fart on Kenny, "Sorry again!"
Tyler glances at the blocks nervously before he slams his sledgehammer on a random block and he raises his eyebrow at large green orb. Before he knows it, the orb explodes right away and he run away with a bloodcurdling scream, it turns out that the orb was an stink bomb.
Amy jumps on several robot turtles and she was about to jump on the next robot but Sky jump past her, accidentally knocking the evil twin down. The evil twin was about to snarl but the robot turtles suddenly dogpile on the screaming evil twin.
Jasmine jump over the rolling barrel as she race against Courtney and they were about to jump over another barrel but the second barrel fall down on them from the above, knocking them down in process. They attempt to get up on their feet but they both got run over by several barrels and they can hear the cooker's evil laughter from above.
"That is way too easy." Chef laughed as the racers kept got hit by the barrels and he was about to throw another barrel down until he notice something. "…Hey, where's that crazy maggot?"
"Here!" A voice giggled right behind the cooker and he turn around to see an incoming large hammer, knocking him off the platform with a cry.
"What was that?" Tyler glanced up before the cooker land on him, following by the barrels. It turn out that Izzy was first to reach the top and she just use an hammer to knock the cooker out.
"…You know that you're not supposed to kick Chef off the platform, right?" Chris muttered.
"Nah, you didn't say anything about that." Izzy crossed the finish line with a giggle.
"Yeah…" The host sighed, "Anyway…Izzy just win the challenge for the Vomiting Bear! Their reward?" He gestured at the gold trophies, "Gold Mario!"
"…You are so gonna get sued for copyright." Gwen glanced at her trophy with deadpan expression.
"Nah, I won't." Chris walked away with a snicker, "Off to the next challenge!"
(Confessional)
"I want to say that I hope that the next challenge won't be a deathtrap but we all know that it will happen anyway." Noah deadpanned with crossed arms.
"Our second reward challenge of the day is…" The host gestured at the giant maze, "Maze of Doom!"
"Maze of Doom?" Alejandro repeated with a raised eyebrow.
"Maze of Doom!" Chris smirked, "The rules are very simple…Stay together with your team and try to find the exit within the maze but beware!" He paused to hold his laughter back, "If you take the wrong path, you will end up walking into a trap and it's not gonna be pretty for you guys. Vomiting Bear, for winning the pervious challenge, you get a maze map." He tossed the map to the said team.
"…What the…" Sky glanced at the map, "I don't think I can read that…" It turn out that the map was very complex and it was kinda impossible to read it.
"Snake, you may enter the maze now and the bears will come in after five minutes." The host grinned as the snakes quickly entered the maze before he glance at the bears, "Gotta give them a chance since they don't have a map."
"Whatever…" Gwen muttered as her team tried to understand the map.
(Maze)
"Um…" Owen scratched his head as he stared at three paths before he turn his head to his team, "Which one do we take?"
"I think we should take the straight path, dattebayo." Naruto pointed at the straight path.
"No, we'll go left." Jo jabbed her thumb at the left path.
"Both are incorrect." Harold walked down the right path, "Logically, you always have to take the right path because it's more likely that it will take us to…" The giant rolling boulder smashed him into the wall without any warning.
"…I vote for the straight path." Scott glanced at his team with nervous expression.
The bears halt in their trail as soon as they reach a fork and they glance around. "Do we take right or left?" Cody asked.
"I think right…" Izzy turned the map around with puzzled expression, "…I don't know, they all look same to me."
"Ugh…" Gwen groaned, "The map is so useless!"
"Indeed." Dawn nodded before the team decides to take left path, they never notice that the robot just slumped on the ground. It turn out that the robot was waiting for them in the right path and the bears was very lucky to avoid the flamethrower.
After a while, the bears stare at two doors with raised eyebrows. "…Which door?" Zoey asked.
"I say we'll take the first door…" Max opened the right door and the fire shot out of the door before the aspiring villain slam the door close with a bloodcurdling scream. "…Second door it is…" He smelled something, "…What is that smell?"
"Um…" DJ raised his index finger, "That would be your rear on fire…" The aspiring villain peeks over his shoulder to see that his butt was on fire.
"…PUT IT OUT!" Max ran around, waving his arms as he scream out for help.
(Confessional)
"I still want to know where they get these handy interns from, dattebayo." Naruto scratched his head, "I mean, it's impossible for anyone to build a giant maze in just few hours."
*Static*
"I have my way and it's something called blackmail." Chris winked with an evil smirk.
Scott turn around the corner and the snakes can hear him screaming out before he run back to them as Fang skid on his feet with an axe in his hands, causing the screaming snakes to ran away from the mutated creature.
Sky glances at the fork path before she takes several steps toward the center path, only to get plaster by paintballs and a few stink bombs.
Chester grumble to himself as he head for the left corner before the robot fire its flamethrower at the screaming unpredictable man and the snakes wince at the sight.
Izzy was whistling a tune as she skip down the path and she suddenly drop down on the ground, causing Tyler to raise his eyebrow. Before he know it, the giant meatball flew into his stomach and he scream out as it smash him against the wall with a loudest thump.
Blaineley tapping her cheek for a while as the snakes tried to figure out which path they should take and she just shrug her shoulders as she walk toward the right path, only to get hit by the barrage of meatballs, courtesy of Chef-robot.
Ella walk down the path and she glance around for any signs of trap before she suddenly fall down into the pit as several bears flinch at the sound of snapping mousetraps, following by a painfully scream.
Ezekiel peek over the wall and a burst of flame shoot over the wall, causing the feral man to fall down on his back with a screech.
Noah slowly walks toward the corner and he sneaks a peek before a huge club smash on his head, knocking him out. It turn out that Chef was right around the corner with the club, waiting for his unlucky victim to show up.
Chris takes a sip from his tea as he wait at the exit, "Man, they have been in there for hours! Maybe I should send search and rescue team out there…Nah!" He chuckle to himself before a certain team stumble out with several yelps, "Oh, about time you show up! The winner of the challenge is Vomiting Bear!"
"Yes!" Cody pumped his fist, "No more night at the cargo hold!"
"Hear, hear." DJ nodded with his teammates.
"Yeah, and you get a sweet gold maze game." The host gave them an miniature gold maze before he glance around as he scratch his chin, "By the way, have anyone seen the Farting Snake?"
"I think we should go this way, dattebayo." Naruto pointed at the right corner.
"No, we're going this way!" Courtney stomped away and the bears glanced at each other before they follow the CIT, what they don't know is that the redhead was pointing at the exit right behind the corner.
(Chrisship: Dining Room)
Several hours later, the snakes have few hours before the curfew and right now, Naruto was having an early dinner with Heather. "I still can't get enough of your foods, dattebayo." The redhead chuckled with a wide grin, "You're getting really good at cooking and I'm surprised that Uncle Chef let you go in his kitchen."
"Actually, I used the kitchen without his knowledge." Heather replied with a lightly blush and she look around to make sure that there was no one around that would interrupt her. The queen bee told the redhead that she wants him to taste some of her cooking but it was an excuse to be alone with him and she want to use that chance before it's too late. "…Naruto, listen…" The queen bee glanced at her childhood friend nervously, "For many years since we were little, I really care a lot about you…"
"Hai, you do." Naruto grinned, "We always care about each other since we're been together for many years, dattebayo."
"Yeah but the real reason is because I really l-l-l…" The queen bee stammered before they hear running footsteps and they turn their heads around with puzzled expression until they spot Maeve as she run toward the childhood friends. The little girl quickly climbs onto her father's laps and she shoots a glare at the queen bee with puffed cheeks.
"Don't play with daddy, nya!" Maeve pointed at the queen bee, "He's mine, nya! You can't take him away!"
"No one is taking me away, Ma-chan." The redhead ruffled the little girl's head, "We are just hanging out together, that's all there is, dattebayo."
"I don't care." The little girl muttered as she buried her face in her father's chest, "Daddy's mine, nya."
"Yes, daddy is yours." Heather patted the little girl's head, "But we want to spend some time with him and there are things that he can't do with you like…Say, watch a scary movie or going to a boring grown-up party…"
"Don't care, nya!" Maeve pouted, "Daddy will wait until I get big! We can do all things you say, nya! No one is taking daddy away!"
The queen bee sigh at her before an idea appear in her head, "Tell you what…I'll give you a chocolate bar each time I spend some time with your daddy and you can make a choice to allow me to 'play' with your daddy or not. Deal?"
"…Large bar?" The little girl furrowed her brows at the queen bee, "For each day?"
"Yes, a large chocolate bar for everyday." Heather smirked as Naruto just scratched his head, he was not sure about the result since his daughter can be very unpredictable and he hope that Maeve won't get a lot of candies or she would have a sugar rush.
"…Deal, nya!" Maeve held her hand out, "Gimme chocolate bar!"
"Sure, come with me and I'll get you one." The queen bee stood up and she lead the little girl away from the table.
"…I'm kinda confusing here, dattebayo." Naruto muttered to himself as he ate his dinner, sometime he can't understand most of his friends or the odd situations.
(Hallway)
Several days later, the bears were snoring in their beds until someone stretching her arms out as she left her room with a contently sigh. "Oh, I really miss the feeling of a comfortable bed." Sky smiled to herself before the loudspeaker blare loudly, killing her happy mood.
"Travelers, get up and bring your barf bag because we're gonna do a space-theme challenge in Australia!" Chris' voice laughed, "Some of you may ask about the barf bag…Well, it's because this challenge will make you want to vomit right away. McLean out!"
"…Not again…" The Cree woman's shoulders slumped with a groan.
(Australia)
The travelers stare at the huge centrifuge with two large colored sphere objects and several travelers swallow their saliva, realizing the giant equipments. "…Chris, are we going to do High-G training?" Harold asked.
"Kinda." Chris covered his mouth as he tried to hold his laughter back, "Teams, your challenge is…World of Barf! It's pretty simple and fast challenge since you know the rules…Do you?"
"Just don't throw up and you win the challenge when another team throws up first." Everyone deadpanned.
"Actually, I just change one rule…" The host smirked evilly, "The team loses the challenge when one of their members throws up!" The travelers dropped their jaws at the laughing host, "And to make it more interesting…The person that throw up first will be eliminated instantly!"
"Wait, what?!" Zoey held her hands up, "That is way too sudden!"
"Not on this show." Chris chuckled, "Bears, your ride is the green ball and Snakes, you're in the red."
(Confessional)
"Ooh…" Mike groaned as he rubbed his neck, "Sometime I wonder why I signed the form to join this show…Wait a second, I don't remember that I sign up…" He gasped, "VITO!"
*Static*
"Not me, bro." Vito combed his hair back, "It was Chester."
"Chef, start her up!" The host grinned and the cooker turn the machine on with a sadistic smirk before the centrifuge machine start to spin around at steady pace as the speed slowly build up.
"Hey, that's not bad as I thought it wou…" Owen said with a wide smile before he scream out as the gravity suddenly push the travelers down and Chef chuckled as he remove his finger from the red button.
"How long do you think they will last for?" Chef asked.
"Dunno." Chris shrugged as they watch the spinning machine, "…Fifty bucks that Max will throw up first."
"You're on." The cooker smirked before he realize something with a blink, "…Why do we have one challenge today?"
"Dude, this centrifuge machine cost me a lot of bucks even if I got it with discount." The host replied, "There was another challenge but the producers and lawyers won't allow me to."
"…Does it involve a rocket, bomb and a moon?" Chef asked.
"…Yep, you know me." Chris nodded.
Max's face slowly stretch back with several tears and he wail loudly, pleading for the challenge to end right now.
Heather turn her head to right by force and she glance at the feral man next to her before she release a bloodcurdling scream as Ezekiel stick his tongue out with a bugged eyes, reminding her of a monster in car art.
Gwen's face turn green but she manages to hold it down and before she know it, a sweatband smack against her face. "S-S-S-Sorry, Gwen!" The clumsy jock hollered and the goth woman was glad that the headband was not sweaty and smelly, it turn out that Tyler's headband was removed by force, courtesy of the G-force.
Jo can feel the bile in her throat as it slowly come up and she quickly gulp it down with a disgusted groan. "S-S-S-Stupid S-S-S-Show a-a-a-and f-f-fuck C-C-Chris!" The jockette gritted her teeth.
"S-S-Stop t-t-this t-t-t-thing!" Courtney cried out.
Jasmine tightened her closed eyes tight as much as she can, hoping that it will take everything off her mind but the force of the gravity does not help out since she can still feel it.
Owen gags with budged cheeks as his face turn green and he swallow it down loudly, almost causing the snakes to throw up but they all managed to hold it in.
DJ release a high-pitched scream and it went on for a while until he finally pass out. Several bears glance around before they raise their eyebrows at the petite woman since Dawn was just sit there with poker face, seems to be fine with everything.
Alejandro bite his lip to distract himself from urge to throw up and he hear a ripping noise as he raise his eyebrow before Owen smash into him against the wall. The snakes scream out as the screaming oaf flew toward them, it turn out that the oaf's harnesses just got torn and there was nothing that can hold him down. Chef and Chris glance at each other and the cooker held a scissors up before they laugh together.
Zoey cover her mouth as her face turn green and she glance at the crazy woman, Izzy was giggling happily. The indie woman have no idea how the crazy woman was enjoying this twisted challenge but she know that's how Izzy is.
Duncan narrowly dodge the bouncing oaf and he smirk to himself, only to blink as he hear several ripping noise. He glances up to see that several snakes were bouncing around and he notice one thing, they all were flying toward the punk. "…I hate my life now." Duncan gulped before the snakes crash into him with several thuds and they was about to fling away but Owen smash into the group, drawing a scream of agony from the punk.
"Wow, they last longer than I thought." Chris rubbed his chin, it have been about five or six hours.
"Yeah, but I'm pretty sure that one of the maggots will lose his or her lunch by now." Chef glanced at the machine, receiving a nod from the host.
"G-G-Guys, I don't think I can do it…" Tyler groaned weakly.
"You can do it, Tyler!" Cody shouted, "Just a little longer, I'm certain that the snake is gonna lo…" The clumsy jock suddenly throws up all over the floor, accidentally cover his teammates' shoes.
"…Great…" Noah muttered lowly.
"Tyler just loses his lunch!" The host announced as the cooker flicked the switch off, "That mean the Vomiting Bear is today's loser and Tyler is going home tonight!"
"…And here goes our comfortable night." The aspiring Olympian groaned, earning a lot of nods from her teammates.
(Chrisship: Deck)
"Here's your money." Chris handed the cash bag to the clumsy jock as he sat down in the lifeboat, "Any last words before you go?"
"Well, yes, I want to know what's up with the go…" Tyler attempted to ask the host something but the cooker just drop the lifeboat into the sea without any warning.
"…You're not gonna stop cut everyone off, are you?" The host asked.
"Never." Chef smirked and the host gives him a thumb-up with a cheesy grin.
(Bridge)
"I bet you all didn't see that coming!" Chris grinned with a lightly chuckle, "Four teams have become two teams and two travelers come back for another shot, which fit the Phase Two! Right now, it doesn't look good for the Vomiting Bear because the bad guys are beating them right off the bat! So far, we just saw that some certain people are getting along with each other in the Bear team…"
"Chris, what about the crazy maggot?" Chef hollered from the wheel before he notice his co-worker's look, "…Yeah, you're right…She would get along with everyone as long as she have her whisker times…Which I still don't approve!"
"Yeah, yeah, I know." The host rolled his eyes before he clear his throat, "Anyway…Here are the questions…Will the bears fight back? How long will it take until Naruto take a hint that the girls like him more than a friend…"
"I STILL DON'T APPROVE THEM!" The cooker shouted.
"Chef, shush!" Chris shushed the cooker, "…Where will we go to next? What kind of challenges will the travelers face next? Who will join the boat of losers? Will there be another increase in cash bag? Find out next time on…"
"TOTAL…"
"DRAMA…"
"ODYSSEY!"
(Dining Room)
It was late at night and the redhead was enjoying his bowl of ramen before he hear someone enter the room, causing him to glance up to see that it was his father. "Hey, tou-san, what's up?" Naruto smiled.
"Nothing much, just grabs something to eat." Chris shrugged as he sat down in front of his son and they just eat their dinner until the host suddenly banging his forehead on the table, earning a raised eyebrow from the redhead.
"Tou-san, what's wrong?" The redhead asked with concern.
"Naruto, how can you be this dense?!" The host threw his hands up, "Not even Kushina was this dense!"
"…What are you talking about?" Naruto tilted his head.
"…Tell me, can you tell if anyone like you more than a friend?" Chris rubbed his temples.
"Hai." The redhead nodded confusingly, "Why are you changing the topic?"
"I'm not changing the topic." The host groaned, "If you can tell that anyone like you, what if it's someone that you know?"
"Yeah, but I'm sure that there's no one that are into me here, dattebayo." Naruto sipped his bowl.
"…YOU FUCKING DUMBASS!" Chris threw his hands up with a scream as the redhead blinked at his father's antic, "HOW CAN YOU NOT SEE IT! THE WAY THEY ALL LOOK AT YOU?! HELL, SOME OF THEM THREW THEMSELVES AT YOU AND YOU DIDN'T EVEN NOTICE IT?! YOU ARE THE DENSEST PERSON IN THE WHOLE WORLD!"
"…What the hell are you talking about?" The redhead raised his eyebrow, still sipping his ramen.
"…There are ten people that love you more than a friend and it kept went on for years!" The host pinched the bridge of his nose, "It's getting too old and I'm tired of it! Naruto, please think back on everything you do with the girls…Heather, Gwen, Bridgette, Ella, Dawn, Zoey, Izzy, Sky, Amy and Blaineley! Think! Please, for love of Kushina, think about it!"
"Um…" Naruto rubbed his chin in deep thought as he think back for a while, "…I still don't see what you're talking about, dattebayo. All I do is just hanging out with them, going on a mock date, etc…"
'Kushina, we create a densest boy in the whole world…' Chris sobbed to himself mentally, "Naruto…They all love you more than a friend! They want to go out with you! Be in a relationship with you! Going out on a date with you! Doing all these jazz with you! They all love you! LOVE YOU!"
"If it's another trick of yours, I'm not falling for…" The redhead slowly trailed off as many memories popped in his head, "…OH…" Naruto's eyes slowly widened.
"And he finally got it after years…" The host buried his face in hands with a silent sob.
"MY…" The redhead took a deep breath.
"Uh-oh…" Chris quickly covered his ears with a deadpan expression.
"KAAAAAAAMI, DATTEBAYOOOOOOO!" Naruto's scream echoed throughout the ocean and it even reach to the space.

Random WDL Fact: The team's names were going to be based off the cards but it was later change to animals since some names were kinda off to me. Bleeding Ace, Golden Spade, Killer Club, Singing Heart, Screaming King, Laughing Jack, Killer Joker, Frowning Queen.
=line=
And this ends our thirty-seven chapter of WDL. Love it? Hate it? Feedback would be great.
Surprise! Four teams have been merging into two teams and it's heroes vs. villains! I bet that some of you didn't see this one coming! Love it? Hate it?
Owen and Max's return: Yes, they are back for another chance! Did you saw this one coming, too? But the question is…Will they make it to the end or not? Who know?
Maeve: Before anyone jump at me about how she accept it right away by making deal with Heather, it's because she is four and I heard that the four years old children have a random personality since they are still developing. Like most children, she'll do anything to get candies since she love them but don't think that it'll going to be easy for the girls since Maeve may might change her mind…maybe…
It's about damn time that Naruto find out that the girls like him more than a friend, all thank to Chris! I guess he finally got tired of his son's dense nature like the rest of the travelers. I wonder what will happen next? Who know?
Anyway, I think that's all I can say…Thank for your time to read it.
Please leave reviews and feedbacks here. The flames will be feed to travelers as Chef's mystery meat.
