MXC: Disney vs. Cartoon Network vs. Nickelodeon
Rated K+
Summary: Three of the post popular cartoon-centered brands engage in a battle of legendary proportions as they compete in the toughest competition in town! Who'll be the last brand standing? We'll find out on MXC, Most Extreme Elimination Challenge!
Disclaimer: I do not own anything associated with Disney, Cartoon Network, Nickelodeon or the show MXC, also known as Most Extreme Elimination Challenge. MXC and the rest of the characters is owned by Paramount Network (aka Spike TV), and that's all you need to know. Since I got back to binging on more MXC on TubiTV, I'd figured why not write up a big fic featuring characters from both Disney, Cartoon Network and Nickelodeon shows, mostly cartoons in which they're competing on MXC? That's what me and The Amazing Ghost Musician are gonna be doing here in this story, so most of the credit goes to my co-writer as well.
P.S.: This will be set in an AU in which Fox and Disney both own MXC, hencewhy this is gonna be a bit of a family-friendly approach. I understand why people are a bit turned off by MXC feeling more like PG-rated WWE without Kenny's dirty jokes and Guy LeDouche himself, but it's not my idea. The Amazing Ghost Musician actually thought of an alternate universe where Fox and Disney end up owning MXC. That's only the MXC fic we do together whereas my MXC fics will be written like the show without all that family friendly crap with Kenny's dirty jokes and Guy LeDouche included. I hope that can help clarify things here. Anyway, sit back and enjoy!
Chapter 5: Little Man In The Boat
Set sail, mateys! MXC is back for some more cartoon carnage between Disney, Cartoon Network and Nickelodeon!
After the announcer was finished doing his intro, the camera switched back over to the outside field where Kenny and Vic, who were now standing with boy genius Jimmy Neutron.
"Welcome back, everyone!" Vic said to the camera before looking back to Ken, "Kenny, you know who this is?"
"Well, duh, that's Jimmy Neutron of course." Kenny nodded, "He's the kid with the hair that looks like soft-serve ice cream and is always making these cool inventions, unlike Dexter's they don't always go haywire or backfire on you."
"Well said, Ken!" Vic nodded to Kenny before turning to Jimmy, "Jimmy, you got some fresh gadgets you want to try for us!"
Jimmy nodded before saying to Vic, "I sure do, Mr. Romano. Now as you see right there, I implanted this small black box around Kenny's chest. Now what I'm gonna do is that I'm gonna turn on this little ball cannon right at Ken and see what happens."
"Whoa whoa whoa, what are you gonna do to me?" Kenny asked Jimmy out of hesitation, "Haven't I suffered enough?"
"Ken, would you calm the heck down?" Vic replied to Ken, "At least let Jimmy try the thing before you make assumptions! Jimmy, you ready?"
"Sure are!" Jimmy said as he rushed right over to the ball cannon.
"Whatever, let's just get this over with." Kenny sighed in defeat.
Kenny stood right over with a pout as Jimmy Neutron turned on the ball cannon right away. As it did though, the ball shot right out of the cannon right at the same time a green forcefield appeared around Kenny, deflecting the ball right back into orbit!
"Whoa, is this thing supposed to do that?" Kenny said, feeling fascinated by the forcefield around him.
"Of course, it's called the Deflectinator." Jimmy nodded to Ken before saying, "This thing can dodge balls, bullets, oncoming objects, you name it. As long as you turn this thing on, you won't get hurt."
"Really? That's awesome!" Kenny smirked happily as he said, "Do it again!"
"Will do, but only this time I'm gonna use it on Vic!" Jimmy nodded as he turned on the ball cannon again.
Kenny groaned before saying, "Aw, that sucks."
Within no time at all, the ball was shot out of the cannon once again, deflecting another ball from Vic's forcefield when all of a sudden…
*BAM!*
The black ball ended up ricocheting off the forcefield and smacking Kenny right in the head, knocking him out of nowhere!
"AHHHHHHHHHHH!" Kenny shouted, "What the heck was that?!"
"I forgot to tell you to step out of the way first." Jimmy reminded Ken from far away.
"Wow, Kenny's right." Vic nodded in satisfaction, "I do like it! Anyway, Captain, if you please!"
The camera then switched it right over to Captain Tenneal, who was now standing on a platform with water filled around it and a boat standing in the middle of a straight tiled line.
"Thank you Vic, our next game is called Little Man In The Boat." Captain said to the camera, "It's when our contestants must ride this little boat 100 meters away from the finish line. If they cross through the finish line without falling off they win. If not, they get tipped off the boat by our special intern for this event, Chef Hatchet from Total Drama Island!"
The camera switched right over to Chef Hatchet, who popped out of the water with a mean sneer around his face and his arms crossed out for some reason.
"I swear, I don't get paid enough for this." Chef Hatchet growled to himself before shouting, "All right, bring them little suckas in!"
Nodding right over to Chef himself, Captain Tenneal blew his whistle before swinging his sword and saying, "GET IT ON!"
The first contestant that came up the platform first had dirty-blonde hair, ruby colored glasses, yellow headband, yellow shirt, grayish-yellow coat, white pants and yellow high-heeled boots.
"I'm the hot one!" Honey Lemon shouted before leaping on the boat.
"First up for Team Disney, it's Honey Lemon, who of course is one-fifth of a team of heroes from Big Hero 6!" Vic exclaimed.
"You know, for a scientist, she looks pretty attractive." Kenny pointed out.
Vic nodded before saying, "Well, she is in fact one of the most popular characters of the series besides both Gogo Tomaso and Hiro Hamada."
"What about that big white balloon with the freaky eyes?" Kenny raised his eyebrow.
"That of course would be Baymax, Ken!" Vic corrected him head on as the boat Honey Lemon rode on crossed right over the line.
Unfortunately, it wasn't enough to keep the boat's balance intact for long though as it forced Honey Lemon to drop right down on the fluid.
"Oh, and Honey Lemon falls right down on our mystery fluid, Ken!" Vic quickly pointed out.
"Which is actually squeezed lemon juice mixed with sweat sock juice from Otto Rocket's feet." Kenny smirked.
"Got that right, Ken." Vic nodded.
Kenny then raised his eyebrow once more before turning to Vic and asking him, "Hey Vic, does Chef Hatchet actually know he's swimming in that?"
"Not necessarily." Vic shook his head to Ken.
Right as Honey Lemon was busy squeezing some of the lemon juice out of her hair, the camera moved up to another contestant, who had whitish-purple blue hair, purple skin, a navy blue leotard with black stockings, white shoes and an amethyst gem that was attached to her chest.
"Cut above the rest!" Amethyst shouted out as she rushed for the boat.
"Up next for Cartoon Network, it's Amethyst representing Steven Universe!" Vic exclaimed.
Kenny somehow got a good look at her appearance and said to Vic, "What's up with the gem on her chest?"
"Well Ken, that gem on her chest represents the part of the Crystal Gems, alongside her close confidants, Garnet and Pearl." Vic said, clearly explaining to Kenny, "Of course, when it comes to the trio though, she's the only one that could summon a whip from her chest."
"Man, I bet she could definitely give Indiana Jones a run for his money!" Kenny smirked out.
"That I will agree with you, Ken!" Vic exclaimed before seeing Amethyst's boat make it past the white line.
The boat's tip only managed to leave the platform, yet Amethyst managed to arch her back just in order for her boat to maintain the balance it needed, staying on the platform long enough to score for the Cartoon Network team.
"Look at that, Vic!" Kenny pointed out.
"I'm sure Ken, and Amethyst scores big for the Cartoon Network team!" Vic nodded, "Very impressive. Let's take a look at that on our fast motion replay!"
While Amethyst continued to celebrate her win, the camera transitioned over to her replay, where her entire run was being shown going fast forward, therefore leading Ken to talk fast as a result.
"Okay, there we go, she hops on the boat, gets past the line, stays on the boat long enough to win." Kenny replied incoherently, "Ha, I'm a pro."
"You sure are, Ken." Vic said as he rolled his eyes.
Once that replay came to an end, the camera shifted right over to the next contestant who had twin blonde pigtails, a pink bow on top of her head, a pink dress that was being worn over her white t-shirt, and form-fitting white shoes that went along with that semi-annoyed growl.
"I hate it when Brainy breathes on me!" Helga spoke loudly before she rushed right over to the boat.
"And up next for Nickelodeon, it's Helga Pataki representing Hey Arnold." Vic pointed out, "She used to be Arnold's enemy before she would eventually be his girlfriend."
"I just realized something shocking, Vic." Kenny asked Vic.
Vic then turned his head to Ken before saying, "What, Ken?"
"Her Dad looks like the dad from The Wonder Years." Kenny replied.
"I think it is the dad from The Wonder Years, Ken." Vic nodded to his partner.
Kenny gasped before saying, "Really? That's awesome!"
As they were talking though, the boat Helga was riding in ended up stopping three inches farther from the white line, which forced Chef Hatchet to emerge from the fluid and push Helga right off the boat. That of course forced Helga to splash into the sticky lemony juice fluid herself.
"I'm pretty sure she's not gonna find this awesome though!" Vic shook his head referring to Helga's fall, "She's out into the fluid!"
"She's gonna need a beeper so she'll call 911." Kenny smirked out.
"Indeed." Vic nodded.
As Helga punched back at the fluid in defeat, the camera shifted back to another contestant, which just happened to be a humanoid duck dressed in a black tophat, red bathrobe, and possessed his signature monocle, cane and familiar Scottish accent all in one.
"Money in the bank, laddie!" Scrooge shouted out as he took off running.
"Right up next for Disney, the richest duck in all of Duckburg from DuckTales, Scrooge McDuck!" Vic exclaimed, "Let me tell you, what a war of words he had with Mr. Krabs at the beginning of the episode."
"Yeah, I would have loved to see him crack that crab in two." Kenny nodded to Vic before saying, "Maybe dip him in melted butter with some cheddar biscuits served from Red Lobster."
Vic immediately felt his stomach rumble in pure hunger, therefore forcing him to utter out, "Yikes, I'm starting to feel hungry now myself. Thanks a lot, Ken."
Before Kenny could say anything to Vic, the boat that Scrooge was riding on immediately went over the white line before both the boat and Scrooge went over the platform, knocking him into the fluid. But it got even more painful for Scrooge as he stood on his knees during the entire ride itself, forcing Scrooge to hit himself beak-first onto the boat on his way down.
"Oh, what a painful landing that was!" Vic yelped painfully.
"Yeah, Scrooge just bankrupted right onto our lemony-fresh fluid." Kenny smirked.
Vic took in a nod before replying, "And a crash like that makes it lemony-fresh for our MXC Impact Replay."
As Scrooge began to shiver heavily from the lemon juice he consumed, the MXC Impact Replay began to play showing his run, mostly focusing on the part where Scrooge's face hit beak-first on the boat and the water at the same time.
"As you see right there, he made the mistake of standing on the boat with his knees, Vic!" Kenny pointed out first-handedly.
"That of course, resulted in a long, painful way down." Vic replied before chuckling, "I bet he's gonna put that faceplant on his bill."
Kenny immediately shrugged as he said, "I really don't get it…"
"Bill, because Scrooge McDuck is a duck and he's also rich and all." Vic chuckled again before he said with a groan, "Ah, never mind, let's move on."
After the replay was over, the camera immediately turned it over to another contestant who had long beautiful auburn hair, decked out in a short long-sleeved purple dress, purple leg stockings, purple high heels and purple hair-clip.
"I'm a clutz!" Daphne shouted out before hopping on the boat.
"And next up for Cartoon Network, Daphne Blake from Scooby Doo!" Vic exclaimed, "She's considered to be the most attractive out of Mystery Incorporated."
"Yeah, but it kinda sucks that she's dating the guy with that stupid orange ascot." Kenny said in disgust.
"Well that's your opinion, Ken!" Vic replied, "But like it or not, she's Fred's one and only."
Kenny found himself speaking out in a chuckle, "I bet she's gonna enjoy tending to his wounds at the hospital though."
"I wouldn't doubt that, she might even give him a special gift." Vic mentioned with a smirk.
"Yeah, a big old body cast." Kenny chuckled once more.
Before Vic could say anything though, the boat Daphne rode in on immediately crossed over the white line, keeping her balance intact long enough for her to stay past the platform and score big for the Cartoon Network team.
"I don't think that's gonna be necessary though!" Vic shook his head, "Daphne just scored big for Cartoon Network!"
"Huh, guess she's not the klutz that I thought she was." Kenny nodded.
"Right you are, Ken!" Vic nodded back, "Chalk one up for CN."
Right as Daphne threw up a little "V" for victory, the camera switched over yet again to see a humanoid squirrel dressed up in her usual astronaut uniform with the glass bowl on top standing before the captain.
"I excel at Karate!" Sandy said before chopping down a couple of boards, which suddenly seemed to come out of nowhere for some reason. She then pushed the broken boards aside and hopped right on the boat, surfing through the straight line like a surfer.
"And next up for the Nickelodeon team, Sandy Cheeks from Spongebob Squarepants!" Vic exclaimed. "She, of course, resides in Texas."
"Also for a squirrel who is from Texas, Sandy sure is more scientific and intelligent then most people and creatures from Texas." Kenny pointed out
"Right you are, Ken!" Vic agreed, "They are not as stupid as Patrick thinks."
Kenny nodded as he said, "Yeah, can't believe Patrick still ate Soos's microphone."
Before Vic could agree with Kenny on that comment though, the boat Sandy rode in on only stopped an inch short from the white line, which proved to be enough for Chef Hatchet to appear out of the water and push Sandy Cheeks off the boat. That of course resulted in Sandy landing stomach first right into the lemon juice!
"And no doubt she got a taste of the lemon juice, courtesy of Chef Hatchet, Ken!" Vic pointed out.
"Well Vic, I can tell that Sandy is not gonna like this." Kenny replied, "She might wanna deliver some karate towards Chef Hatchet."
"I think you're right, Ken!" Vic nodded before saying, "Let's go down to Soos to see what's up."
As Sandy continued to shake the lemon juice right off her fur, the camera switched over to an open field where Soos was standing right now to a very agitated Sandy Cheeks, who looked very P.O'ed and angry.
"Ugggh, I can't believe that idiot chef had the nerve to push me like that!" Sandy said with her fists shaking in anger, "It makes me so angry, I just… I just wanna punch something to get it out of my system!"
Soos then pointed over to the right, "Well, Chef Hatchet's right over there!"
"Perfect, just what I needed!" Sandy nodded before she headed out of the interview right away.
It didn't take too long for Sandy to approach Chef Hatchet, who was drying himself with a towel after being soaked around from that lemon juice. He eventually turned around to see Sandy Cheeks level him with a football tackle before mounting him with repeatable punches so violent enough that it made Soos very uneasy to watch.
"Oh boy!" Soos said with a gulp, right before he took his hat off and covered himself with his eyes, "I can't watch…"
"Hey Vic, we should probably turn the camera over now." Kenny replied with a gulp himself.
"Good idea, Ken!" Vic nodded in return.
With the interview already over and done with, the camera switched right over to see a nerdy brunette-haired girl with glasses and dressed in a very long light blue dress standing before Captain Tenneal himself.
"Knowledge is power!" Gretchen shouted out before hopping on the boat.
"Coming up next for the Disney team, representing Disney's Recess is Gretchen Grundler!" Vic pointed out, "She's considered to be the big brains of the bunch of friends she hangs out with."
"The Recess gang has been a big role today, Vic!" Kenny pointed out, "I wonder if Gretchen is gonna score and continue this momentum?"
"It could be possible, Ken!" Vic replied.
Kenny then muttered out with a smirk, "She looks too much like Eliza Thornberry though. Kinda makes me wonder if Nickelodeon ripped off her look."
"You make an interesting point, Ken!" Vic nodded.
However, the boat Gretchen found herself riding in immediately went too fast, which of course caused her boat to get past the white line and past the end of the platform, causing Gretchen to fall off and hit the fluid.
"Oh, and sadly that momentum's gone!" Vic said, groaning in disappointment.
"Well that's gotta suck for Gretchen!" Kenny nodded, "I bet it's gonna make her hard to see because of the fluid that's soaking up her glasses!"
"I think it'll be more effective on her eyes than the glasses, Ken!" Vic nodded as well, agreeing with Ken.
While Gretchen continued to wipe the fluid off her eyes, the camera instantly switched over to the next contestant, who looked short, had big bug-eyed blue eyes, decked herself in a blue dress, white stockings, black shoes and had blonde pig-tails to complete that signature look.
"Saving the world before bedtime!" Bubbles shouted out before diving onto the boat.
"And next up for the Cartoon Network team, Bubbles from The Powerpuff Girls!" Vic exclaimed, "Of course, much to what Bubbles said, their main objective in the city of Townsville is to save the world before bedtime."
"I sure do like Bubbles, she's the kind of girl who will always put a smile on your face." Kenny nodded.
"Right you are, Ken!" Vic nodded as well, "Although you don't want to underestimate her at all, because she's also a girl you don't EVER want to tick off."
"That's for sure, Vic!" Kenny replied before saying with a shudder, "I really hope that Bubbles will score, otherwise I can't imagine what she'll be like if she doesn't…"
Before Vic could reply on that statement though, the boat Bubbles rode in on managed to get right past the white line, staying in practically long enough to score another win for the Cartoon Network team!
"Well, you won't have to worry anymore, Ken!" Vic shook his head in relief, "Looks like Bubbles scores yet again for Cartoon Network!"
"Thank goodness we're probably safe, Vic." Kenny nodded once more.
Vic nodded as well before saying, "That's what I thought, Ken. Here's another look at that run."
Right as Bubbles continued to celebrate her victory though, the camera transitioned over to the replay, showing her entire run focusing mostly on the part where the tip of her boat reached over to the white line. Plus, it also focused on the part where Bubbles used her short stature to remain on top of the boat.
"Of course, what caused her to score was the fact that Bubbles was short and was light enough to keep her balance alive on that boat." Vic pointed out.
"Oh man, now I gotta find a way to be short myself." Kenny smirked out in response.
Vic found himself shaking his head before saying to Ken, "Yeah, good luck with that, Ken…"
After the replay was over and done with, the camera switched right over to the next contestant, who also looked very short like Bubbles except that he had green skin, had black antennas over his head, possessed purple eyes, decked himself in a metallic purple suit with black pants and black leather boots.
"I will rule you!" Zim said, threatening the Captain.
"Yeah, whatever. Just go!" Captain Tenneal snapped back before gesturing Zim over to the boat.
"And coming up last for Nickelodeon, Zim!" Vic pointed out, "He of course is the lead title character from Invader Zim!"
"If I do know one thing about Invader Zim, it's that fluids like water are very harmful on Zim's skin." Kenny brought up.
"That's a good point, Ken!" Vic nodded, "So if he doesn't want to fall into the lemony fluid, he'll have to keep his balance just like what Bubbles did earlier."
The boat Zim immediately rode in on only managed to stop just at an inch away from the white line, leaving him very short from his goal. He was also expecting that Chef Hatchet would pop out of that lemon fluid and push him off, but for some unknown reason, Chef Hatchet was not appearing at all. Kenny somehow noticed this right away and started to look very dumbfounded as a result.
"Ummmm, where's Chef, Vic?" Kenny asked his partner.
Vic rolled his eyes before sighing, "I guess if I had to take one wild guess, it's this."
The camera immediately shifted back over to that same grass field where Sandy Cheeks was shown pounding Chef Hatchet's face right into the dirt, making him eat off the dirt and soil in retaliation.
"He's still getting his butt kicked by a squirrel?" Kenny gasped before letting out a chuckle, "Man, that's gotta be humiliating!"
"Well, you can't blame her for the way Chef Hatchet pushed her off the boat like that!" Vic replied.
"I agree with you, but a loss is still a loss either way!" Kenny nodded back to Vic.
The camera then immediately switched back to Zim, who was still looking very bored and tired of laying stomach-first on the boat without no one to push him right off.
"Really?" The alien said to the camera, "Is no one really gonna push me off? Well, I'm gonna have to do it myself…"
Without no warning at all, Zim managed to fling his own body off the boat and landed right into the lemon fluid, which made him shriek and scream all over as a result.
"Oh my goodness, it burns!" Zim painfully shouted, "What was I thinking doing that?!"
"Well that was just stupid!" Vic yelped, feeling a bit dumbfounded, "What in the world was Zim thinking? He already knows that he's vulnerable to liquid."
"I don't think Zim was thinking at all!" Kenny shook his head.
"That probably could be it, Ken." Vic nodded.
After Zim found himself still shrieking out from the lemon fluid, the scoreboard was shown for everyone to see, leaving Vic to announce who was in the lead.
"So, that's gonna do it for Little Man In The Boat!" Vic exclaimed, "So far, thanks to the back-to-back-to-back scoring from Amethyst, Daphne Blake and Bubbles, Cartoon Network scores big and Nickelodeon ends up short as always. But once again, Disney is still commanding a huge lead, 7-6-1."
The camera then immediately turned it back over to Kenny and Vic, who was now standing alongside both Ed and Rolf from Ed, Edd n Eddy, while Double D was busy working on a new invention with Eddy helping him out in the background.
"This is looking to be a very close race, Ken." Vic replied to Ken.
"It sure is," Kenny nodded to Vic before looking over to see Ed, "So, what's with the guy with the chin missing?"
"Well Ken, I'd figure since you need to be more active, right after the break we're gonna get ourselves fit with the latest dance craze to come out of the old country, courtesy of both Rolf and Ed from Ed, Edd n Eddy." Vic smirked out.
"Oh are we gonna be dancing like how Rolf and Ed did in that one episode, where they were beating each other and shouting "That's my horse?'' Kenny gasped before smirking, "That's gonna be awesome!"
"I'm sure you would like that, Ken." Vic nodded back.
Kenny then looked over to Rolf and said to the foreigner, "Why do you dress like Eddy all of a sudden?"
Rolf giggled from Kenny's response before correcting him, "Ah, so you must be the village idiot the network warned me about, Ken boy!"
"Hey, I ain't no village idiot!" Kenny replied angrily, "Why you-!"
Kenny found himself ready to charge right at Rolf in retaliation from that insult, only for Vic to step right in front of Ken and restrain him in record time.
Still holding Kenny back in his arms, Vic warned him out of safety, "Whoa, Kenny! Be calm! We don't want to get too violent, otherwise the network is gonna have a field day for us!"
"Alright, I'm calm…" Kenny nodded before pointing at Rolf threateningly, "But if he calls me village idiot once more time, I'm getting the dodgeballs!"
Vic replied before rolling his eyes to Ken, "I promise you he won't."
"Field day? Where are we going?" Ed said out loud to Vic.
"Nowhere, so take that!" Vic said as he hit Ed in the head with the fan.
You better get ready to ride, because when MXC comes back, we get a little fast and furious with Pole Riders! Got it, metalhead?
Looks like Cartoon Network's getting back in the middle of things. Can they catch up to Disney or will Disney retain their lead in the next event. Better yet, can Nickelodeon stage a very gigantic comeback? Anything can happen so it's still anyone's game.
So don't forget to keep staying tuned until the next event happens! Which team are you still rooting for to win all the way. Make sure you read, review and leave any feedbacks if you wish. Until next time, peace out dudes!
