ANIMOLE
Chapter 2: Cruel Angel's Thesis
I think that chapter kinda describe there is going to be some Eva link at least in this ep, what and how, just wait and see.
I hope you're keeping your answers in your head, now will you keep with your original predictions or will you change your answers this episode?
WEEK 1 – WHO IS THE MOLE?
Shampoo (45%) Ken (18%) 5 others on 9%.Let's see…
* * * *
7.30am – DAY 3
(Shot of a local hotel, where Yukino comes out and stretches…)
Yukino: Not the scenario that some people would have expected. After all, known perverts such as Takeshi and Akito Hayama haven't faired too badly in these game, but I guess Shirai went the way of his buddy Keitaro instead, in that respect, and in the way of Naru in other…i.e, the first being voted off. Now, 15 remain, and it's just as difficult as ever. Early baths are customary in football, but to avoid one here, you must simply answer one question. Who is the mole?

* * * *
8.00am
Yukino (VO): 8.00am. The scheduled time for the contestants and mole to get up. Each person that fails to be ready by the time will cost them £1,000 in prize money…however, it seems a couple of people have taken in to lying in…a costly mistake.
(At the breakfast table are Rika, Chiharu and Naoko, all talking to each other. Duplica, Giselle, Ken, Yolei and Cody are also there, Touji and Kensuke fighting over the last sausage. Akari has just appeared in the doorway, fortunately Yukino still isn't here. Chiriko is also up.)
(However, no sign of Haley, Shampoo or Haitani…)
Touji: What's keeping them so long?
Kensuke: Haitani…I can guess, but Shampoo and Haley…
(Outside the door, Yukino steps in.)
Yukino: Well, well, what did I just hear?
Giselle: Crap.
Yukino: Crap is right, and we're not moving until those three are here…(devil like face)…because I am angry…AND WHEN I'M ANGRY YOU SCREAM AND GET SCARED!
Chiharu: Arrrghhh! Please don't eat me!
Yukino: (back to normal) Oops…sorry. Just a random burst of psychotic tendancy. Wear off soon. But we need to wait for…
(As she says that, Haley enters, laptop in hand)
Yukino: Ah, glad you could join us Mr. Habiki.
Haley: (a bit unsure) Er…morning?
Yukino: Well, a couple minutes after 8 morning. That is £1,000 gone.
Chiriko: Haley, I thought you were better than that!
Haley: Hey…wait…
Giselle: Great, we've just lost a grand, plus a couple more idiots to hurt when they come in…
Haley: …isn't it 7 o'clock?
Yolei: Huh?
Haley: My alarm on the laptop, it rang for 7, so I wouldn't be late, see?
(Haley sets up his laptop, and indeed, in the bottom right hand corner, it says 07:03. Akari then sees the problem.)
Akari: Hey, is that your moon time back home?
Haley: Yes, after all it's…(realises)…oh.
Yukino: (sighs) I guess you forget the time zone difference between the times and the different worlds. Whilst I can forgive you, incompetence is no reason I'm afraid for sympathy. You've still cost your team one thousand pounds…and worse is, two people are still missing…
Shampoo: Nihao!
(Shampoo enters, fully refreshed after a hot shower, before noticing the cold glares of mostly everyone…)
Shampoo: What? What Shampoo do?
Yukino: Shampoo cost team £1,000 for not showing up at right time, that what she do.
Shampoo: Aiyah! You mean you was serious?
Yukino: (pissed) YOU THINK I WASN'T YOU….(sighs)…gah. Not even worth it. And we've still got one more to go…
(In fact it isn't until 8:15 when Haitani makes his appearance. Haley has already said sorry a billion times, whilst Shampoo sulks in a corner. Haitani on the other hand doesn't look like he's slept much.)
Yukino: Oh dear…looks like we didn't get much sleep.
Haitani: Please…not now…got headache…
Touji: Let me guess, loss of best friend blues.
Yukino: Ah, another half-decent excuse, but you do realise you cost the team another one thousand pounds for being late?
Haitani: (fully awake) Oh no, I forgot about that! Crap, guys I'm…
Akari: It's O.K, you lost your best friend last night. I don't know what I'd do if Itchan ever left me…
Cody: I guess we understand.
(The most nod, even Giselle seems sympathetic. Yukino nods)
Yukino: Haitani, Shampoo and Haley's late comings means you get docked £3,000. Maybe that will jump start you to wake up on time tomorrow, which is also 8am. Hopefully you'll be ready this time. However, it's time to get out and about, because we've got a doozy of a challenge, which is right up a mole's alley.
(Shot of the 15 pretty much hustling out of the hotel, where Skuld is waiting. Where they are going no-one knows…well, two of them do…Yukino…and the mole.)
* * * *
CAPTION: RIO DE JANIERO, BRAZIL
(A shot of the 15 amazed of either the location or Skuld's transportation. Either way, some are a bit stunned as Yukino addresses them.)
Yukino: Never get used to that…but welcome ladies and gentlemen, to Rio De Janiero, the chief port in Brazil.
Rika: We're in Brazil?!
Chiharu: Sakura is going to freak when we tell her this!
Yukino: Calm down ladies, we're not here for fun, because we have a tough challenge read for you. We are in the middle of a mining colony, where iron ore is a chief export for the Brazillians. As we are mole hunters, we are going to do a bit of digging for this challenge.
(Yukino indicate three spots marked X, Y and Z)
Yukino: In a minute, you will split into three teams of five. One by one, you will fill up a basket of iron ore located at the end of each lane, carry as much as you can, the more you carry, the easier this gets. When you get as much as you can handle, you will come back…
(Yukino walks and she follows a path to a weighing machine)
Yukino: …and put your ore on these scale. You must combined get 14 pounds of ore on each scale. However…there is a problem.
Ken: Here it comes.
Yukino: The amount of ore freely available over there is only roughly 30 pounds in total. This mean that some of you will have to dig and find more ore in the area. There is some, but you'll need to work hard and fast to find 12 pounds more ore. Plus you've got three teams to think about. Maybe it's better to have a team of weaklings to get the easy 14 pounds onto their scales whilst the muscle men and women try and find the spare change so to speak.
(Some of them look confused)
Yukino: This challenge is worth £5,000 and it has a time limit of 45 minutes. I suggest you decide on your teams and your strategy. Also, consider the fact if you are running for the 'free' ore, you can only go once, so you need to work out what is 14 pounds. You can go over the limit, but that means diggers may need to do more work if that's your strategy. And finally, NO team must help another team, verbally or physically in any way. Got it?
(The group nod as Yukino smiles)
Yukino: Now, I'm getting a portable deckchair, see you guys in a bit!
(The guys and gals begin talking…and not is all well in the talks of what they should do)
Shampoo: Shampoo should do this by self, no-one else here strong enough for digging…
Ken: Hey, don't get full of yourself!
Yolei: Hold on, she has a slight point. Maybe we should send our strongest in to do the digging whilst the rest of us get 14 pounds worth of ore.
Chiharu: But how are we going to work out that?
Giselle: (smiles) Simple. Anyone got a calculator?
(Facefaults)
Giselle: No? Then how about a brain in their head, because if I'm working it out, there are 30 ores there, which means….
Duplica: (slaps forehead) One pound each.
Akari: Well, that means two teams can get those easily then and another team can dig the rest out.
Kensuke: I think you just volunteered Akari.
Chiriko: It sounds so easy…
(Of course, nothing is that easy…)
* * * *
Yukino: Teams please!
X: Rika, Chiharu, Naoko, Cody, Chiriko
Y: Yolei, Haley, Kensuke, Duplica, Giselle
Z: Akari, Shampoo, Touji, Haitani, Ken
Yukino: Ah, the strength test. This should be very interesting. O.K, you've got 45 minutes to do your thing. Go!
(Teams X and Y are ready and raring. X goes first and Chiriko goes first. He gets 2 of them with ease and goes back to get to the weighing scales. At the same time, Giselle takes off for team Y and gets 3. Team Z meanwhile begin searching for 14 pounds of pure ore.)
Akari: It's like…(grunting)…training…with father…
Shampoo: Put back into it!
(Giselle lets Team X take a good bite, and Cody manages to get 3 back. The three girls realise they have to get 3 each themselves. Kensuke goes to get three as Naoko goes next…)
Naoko: Physical, physical and more physical! I never liked gym, I don't want to start now!
(Meanwhile…)
Ken: I guess I'm not as strong as I thought…hey! I found something!
(Ken gets something and it's a prize ore, which says '2 pounds' on it. Ken smiles)
Ken: This is in the bag!
(Naoko even with 3 pounds is slightly struggling but heads off back. Duplica heads off third as Yolei and Haley watch the guys work…)
Yolei: Go Ken! Win one for the team!
Haley: Listen Miss Yolei, I'm sorry about…
Yolei: Hey, no sweat Haley! We all make mistakes…(smiles)…it's just only one of us is doing this on purpose.
Haley: (sweatdrops) Er…right.
Yolei: Hey, your turn!
Haley: Huh…oh! (Haley realises Duplica has got back and continues on. Yolei continues watching as Rika makes her trip, and notices Shampoo being pretty laid back…)
Shampoo: Aiyah! Found one! (grabs a 3 pound ore and smiles) This too true easy…
(Her attitude makes Yolei a bit mad…like devil Yukino mad…)
Yolei: That little…oh, such a cocky little…
(As Haley returns, Chiharu grabs the last three pounds of her lot as Yolei stomps her way and picks up the remaining lot, 4 pounds left…)
Duplica: Er Yolei, we don't need that mu…
Yolei: If she thinks she is all big britches…
(Yolei dumps her lot on the scale, and despite going over the limit, that's O.K…teams X and Y have done it. Now, it's up to team Z…)
* * * *
30 minutes gone
Yukino (VO): After their early haul, things have slowed down. Ken found 2 pounds, Shampoo 3 and Akari found a 2 pound one. However…
Ken: This…is…tough…
Haitani: (aggressive) Come on, come on, come on…
(Haitani smashes against something, and is happy…until he realises it's no ore…)
(…it's a spring.)
Haitani: What the?
(…and straight into the path of Shampoo.)
Shampoo: Aiyyy….owww!
(Neko-Shampoo is not amusing at the Love Hina boy)
Haitani: I said I was sorry!
Touji: Miss Yukino, Shampoo is in her cursed form, can we get some hot water?
Yukino: (sunbathing) Huh…what?
Akari: (sweatdrops) We need help here!
Yukino: Oh…whoops, must have forgot about the traps there…
Ken: GAAAHHH!
Yukino: …like the sand one over there.
(Indeed, Ken is a little bit stuck and Rika goes over to help him to pull him out. Yukino smiles.)
Yukino: (innocently) You've got 10 minutes.
Giselle: Duplica, you got water in that costume space of yours?
Duplica: Hang on a sec…
(A curtain goes over the ditto girl as she transforms many costumes, eventually settling on a clown figure, and from the squirt flower attached, she sprays Shampoo…before realising.)
Duplica: Oh, we need hot water.
(facefaults from most of the team)
Chiriko: Guys, this is not the time! Akari, Ken, Haitani, Touji, do the best you can!
Touji: The kid's right, we'd better not waste any more time…
(The 4 contestants continue their tirade of work, although tired, plough on as Shampoo looks on and 'meows' a complaint…)
* * * *
Akari: Guys!
(Akari has plunged into a 3 pound ore with 2 minutes to spare, and tosses it to Touji who runs with it…)
Ken: Let's see…that's 10 pounds…4 pounds more with 2 to go, maybe this isn't in the bag…
(Suddenly)
Chiriko: Hey, you can use the leftover ones from ours!
Akari: That's brilliant Chiriko!
Haitani: Er guys…
Ken: I'm wrong again…and I couldn't be happier!
Haitani: Guys…
Touji: Score one more for the team!
Haitani: GUYS!
Akari/Ken/Touji: Yes?
Haitani: What other ones?
(Suddenly, they look…and realise they are all gone…because…)
Yolei: Oh no.
Giselle: YOLEI! YOU PUT THEM OUT THERE IN YOUR RAGE DIDN'T YOU?
Yolei: Hey…I didn't mean to!
Giselle: Sure…
Yolei: Shampoo was annoying me with her lazy attitude like she didn't have to do much, compared to Ken who was sweating his guts…
(Shampoo hisses…)
Haitani: Never mind that! Let's just dig what we can then, what's done is done!
(Sadly, the 2 minutes go too quickly as they still don't have the 4 pounds they needed, the 4 pounds which Yolei tossed in a fit of rage…)
CHALLENGE FAILED
Yukino: Well guys, not a total disaster…but a complete disaster. 5 easy grand slipped through your fingers.
(Shot of team Z (including a human Shampoo) looking hot and bothered. The others are simply disappointed.)
Yukino: 10 pounds from team Z wasn't enough for them to win, because of Yolei overusing the ore. However…
(People's attention was up after that)
Yukino: Even if she didn't, the challenge was lost way before then.
Haley: Huh?
Yukino: At the start of the challenge, one of the last things I said was 'No help physically or verbally' with the other teams. And there were 3 instances of that happening. The first one was when Rika pulled Ken out of the sand trap.
(Ken and Rika look at each other with surprise)
Yukino: The second was when Duplica, under Giselle's instruction I might add, tried to turn Shampoo back to normal.
(Now Yolei looks at Giselle, as the girl curses under her breath. Most of them however are looking at the ditto girl)
Yukino: And third, Chiriko called out to Team Z to get the non-existant ore.
(Chiriko puts his hands to his mouth as most of the group now sigh)
Yukino: As you can see, it was a whole comedy of errors. However, only one of you did that on purpose. Or did they? The mole may have just idly watched by as the group literally dug a hole for themselves, and didn't need to do any sabotaging. One thing is for sure, you guys lost this challenge, but fortunately, plenty of time to catch up, so let's get out of this sweltering heat, and get ready for another goddess travel extravangaza.
(Not a good start to the day…unless you are the mole.)
* * * *
Chiharu: So many things happened there for sabotage, it's hard to see if anyone was actually guilty or we were all being idiots…
Haitani: I'm pretty annoyed about how everything went this morning. Shirai leaves last night and if the mole didn't leave it's thumbprint in that challenge, I'll be very surprised.
Giselle: It was rather suspicious of Chiriko to call out, and considering he's the smartest probably here aside from myself, I can't believe he didn't warn anyone about help…
Yolei: Giselle has quickly risen in my suspect list, the fact that she had the gall to diss what I did and then suggest to Duplica to try and help Shampoo…well, she's supposed to be this beauty tech queen, I'll be keeping an eye on her now…
Haley: The mole showed us in that game, it's just how they did it is the mystery…
* * * *
(The guys however at least get a bit of a breather as the Skuld scenery has a bit to be desired, but at least they are going to somewhere a bit more busy this time…)
Yukino: Well, guys, do you know where we are?
Cody: Some place busy?
Yukino: Close enough. We're in Los Angeles, California, the centre of the US film industry, however also with a few more problems today, and trust me it won't be a special effect…
All: Huh?
Yukino: Whoops, I better not say too much, for now, just relaxo! Relaxo!
(Yukino stops as she leads them into an internet café. The guys shrug as they enter as well…)
Yukino: Anyone up for a cappuchino?
(Not too many are coffee lovers to say the least, Giselle and Rika surprisingly both having one, the rest deciding to go for sodas, except for Chiriko who doesn't have anything.)
Chiriko: (sitting with Rika, Chiharu and Naoko) I never realised how diverse this world was…
Rika: (cheerful smile) Don't worry, you'll get used to it. There are so many things that we don't know about this world either, this is like a grand adventure for all of us.
Chiriko: I guess, although I would have thought a cultured girl like yourself would have known everything.
Rika: (blushing) Oh…I'm…I'm not…
Chiharu: (laughs) Chiriko, you're embarrassing our poor little Rika-chan!
Naoko: That's our job!
(Chiriko blushes slightly, but their attention is being headed somewhere else…)
Giselle: Hmmm…
Duplica: What's wrong?
Giselle: I dunno…
(Duplica looks around to the CCS table and smirks)
Duplica: Oh right. Been working on a plan B yet?
Giselle: Hey, I don't need to hear that from you…
(As the two girls begin to argue, Haley joins team Touji on a table, the last to order)
Haley: The flavours seems unusual, so….
Touji: Hey, we're from 12 years in the future as well, some of these things are a bit weird as well.
Kensuke: Yeah, like things not getting destroyed…
Haitani: I guess this would have been something we'd all have liked, to experience new places, something that Shirai can't have now…
Haley: Oh…I'm sorry….
Haitani: (waves it off) Don't worry, I think I've got over it now, it's just having to do this on our own is a bit of a surprise…
Touji: You're not on your own, we're here remember?
Haitani: (anime tears) Guys…
(As Haley sweatdrops, team Digi confer with team Ranma and team Athletes…considering there is only one of them that's alright.)
Shampoo: Why outside different from Japan?
Akari: Because this is one of the most polluted cities in the world.
Yolei: How did you know that?
Akari: For some reason, I was always good at 20th and 21st century history.
Ken: (sweatdrops) Akari, the scholar, never would have seen that.
Cody: Well, we've still got a mole to catch…
Yolei: Aw, come on Cody, we've been in America before, we can handle anything they throw at us!
Akari: You've been to America before?
(However, before Yolei can explain, an alarm bursts into the café, surprising everyone, except Yukino, sipping on a coffee in the corner on her own)
(The waitress (unknown to everyone, is Maya Ibuki, from Neon Genesis Evangelion, begins to address the 'public')
Maya: Emergency everyone! Evacuate at once, something is happening to the city!
(The staff, and customers leaves, but as Team Mole about to, Yukino stops them)
Yukino: Not, you guys, you've got a challenge to do.
Kensuke: In this crisis?
Yukino: This crisis…IS your challenge.
(Recognition appears on their faces, as they follow Yukino to a back room.)
* * * *
Yukino: After the failure of your recent challenge, you really need to pick it up with this one. This challenge is worth £15,000 and it's a toughy.
(Yukino points to the back of the room where there is a map, with four points, one where they are now, one where the 'problem is' and the two other points, what to do about it.)
Yukino: In downtown LA, even the toughest people cannot get through the problem that is an Absolute Terror Field.
Touji: (scared) Did you say…
Yukino: (continuing) The challenge is simply. I don't expect any of you to break through that without a 20 foot robot or anything, but we have something that can help you. At point 3 at the north is a landing site with a giant mechanised turtle. Point 4 is how to break it, where a direct copy of the Lance of Longinus is there to pierce the soul of this 'angel' if you will.
(Yukino addresses everyone)
Yukino: The key to this however…is GETTING there. You need to get to the site of the Lance of Longinus, and then somehow gets it to the shooting point. Fortunately, we have one car which is capable of holding the lance…
(Shot of the busy traffic in downtown LA)
Yukino: …which is a problem here. Somewhere here is Bean Bandit, Chicago's most notorious Roadbuster. His car however isn't there. In this crowd, you need to locate Bean, who will direct you to his car and you'll soon be on your way to the Lance.
(Shot of the screens)
Yukino: 3 people will be watching the screen trying to find Bean and relaying it to…
(Shot of the streets)
Yukino: …three more people who will be joining Bean.
(Shot of one black car)
Yukino: Since we like ripping off…er, I mean borrowing, from other mole shows, both reality and anime, we've managed to get the trademark smart car, which 3 will take to get to the turtle whilst Bean's team get to the lance…)
(And back to base…)
Yukino: …whilst the final 6 have the toughest job of directing the two teams to their places.
Chiriko: You mean, we won't have a map?
Yukino: No, whoever you choose will have to direct Bean and whoever is in the smart car to their respective destinations. 3 will direct Bean, 3 will direct smart, using the map we have here. Not an easy task as you can see, so you better split yourselves up into 5 teams. One for finding Bean on the screens, one for finding him on the street, one for the smart car, and one for each team actually getting there.
(This is a tough challenge, and when they look at a picture of the tough Roadbuster (on a Wanted poster to boot), it pretty much doesn't look good for volunteers. However, common sense prevails and they come up with the teams.)
TEAM SCREEN (Mission: To locate Bean Bandit via television screen and relay it to Team Bean) – Chiharu, Cody, Kensuke
Kensuke: I think this is a good way for us to get to know each other a bit better, plus I think we chose the best team to actually spot the guy.
Chiharu: I can spot Yamazaki's lies a mile away, I won't miss a 7 foot monster!
Cody: Sharp eyes and an even sharper instinct are needed, this is just the first leg.
TEAM BEAN (Mission: After locating Bean thanks to Team Screen, must go with Bean to retrieve Lance of Longhinus under instruction from Team Bandit, where they will head off to join Team Tamago) – Touji, Akari, Shampoo
Touji: Considering who we are dealing with, we felt our strongest line-up was needed for this encounter.
Akari: After our first disaster, we intend to pick this up here and now!
Shampoo: Shampoo not used to working with others, but for this case, have to make exception.
TEAM TAMAGO (Mission: To locate the giant turtle launcher under instruction from Team Su, where they will wait for Team Bean. Problem, must learn how to use the smart car) – Yolei, Haley, Giselle
Haley: We felt that although Chiriko is the smartest here, he is still not used to 21st century technology, so we felt we were the best choice to deal with this smart car.
Yolei: I think as long as Haley is on our side, we'll be O.K. The kids a navigator by trade, this should be a piece of cake.
Giselle: Haley is indeed an asset in this type of challenge, because of his futuristic skills. Let's hope they come into play…
TEAM BANDIT (Mission – Must relay instructions on where to go to Team Bean) – Rika, Naoko, Chiriko)
Chiriko: It's a wonder all this modern age to me. To me, it looks like they are killing the city…
Naoko: Although we thought the three of us were going to work together, I was surprised Rika and Chiharu wanting to separate from this challenge…
Rika: I think the three of us need to socialise more with the others. I get along fine with most people, but to win this game, we need to know all people.
TEAM SU (Mission – Must relay instructions on where to go to Team Tamago) – Ken, Duplica, Haitani)
Ken: This is a chance to stop the two game rot we have. And as long as we aren't completely incompetent on directions, we should be O.K.
Duplica: We need this now. It should be easy, but then again, we said that about the last one…
Haitani: After my best friend went, we lost. I don't need another sour note.
* * * *
Yukino: O.K, teams set and ready, you guys have got 2 hours to do everything…and I suggest you start….now.
(Immediately, things run amok. Team Tamago head outside the café to where the 'smart' car is waiting. Just after them, Team Bean head out into the streets of LA, awaiting directions from Team Screen.)
(Shot of all three 'inside' team with headphones on, attached to a communicator. Each member of the outdoor teams have microphones attached. Team Bean's will be switched to Screen until they find Bean, as soon as they get in the car, the frequency will be switched to Team Bandit.)
(So for the moment, Rika, Naoko and Chiriko don't have much to do, however, Team Screen (Chiharu, Cody and Kensuke) are quickly scanning the streets for Bean Bandit, a big bruiser around 7 feet tall, who would stand out even in this crowd.)
(Shot of Team Bean (Touji, Akari, Shampoo) scouring the street)
TEAM TAMAGO
(The three are in the smart car…)
Haley: Let's see here…
(Inside the smart car is a radar, which Haley expertly reads as Yolei and Giselle admire the view)
Yolei: This is going to be so…
(Look ahead, to LA traffic, as Yolei sweatdrops)
Giselle: You were saying?
Yolei: Never mind.
Haley: Don't worry guys, if this technology is based on what I think it is, there should be a few tricks in here which can help…
(Haley begins searching for something…and finds a manual in the glove compartment. Haley begins to read)
Yolei: Haley, we need to get going!
Haley: In a minute, I think there could be…yes!
(Haley looks for a button on the car, and presses it. Some jet thrusters rise from the wheels, leaving the two girls spooked)
Giselle: What the…
Haley: Hover-car! Pays to be so smart, né?
Yolei: Awesome!
Giselle: Define awesome and I might agree with you…
(Whilst Haley shows his skills as a navigator, Team Screen are busy watching for some big burly men…)
Chiharu: This is Chiharu, come in Team Bean!
Touji: (muffled) Touji here…any luck?
Chiharu: None yet, and we don't know how much time you're going to need.
Kensuke: Should you guys split up?
Cody: I wouldn't think so, we're their eyes, if they split up, it could worsen the problem…
(Shot of Shampoo ready to jump off cars, but Touji is a bit hesitant)
Touji: Er…if you did this, would you be breaking the law?
Shampoo: Rules never listen to…but laws…very well…(Shampoo calms down as Akari listens to Kensuke's instructions)
Cody: Listen, Miss Shampoo, can you see a toll booth to the left of you?
(Shampoo turns and sees an area where the sea is the main sight, but there is a toll booth)
Shampoo: Yes, Shampoo see.
Cody: From there, there is a building just north of you. I can see someone sitting outside a nursery with glasses on…he's sitting down but he's built very well. Is that him?
Shampoo: Could be…Box-girl, you come is O.K?
Akari: (sweatdrops) Box girl?
Touji: Never mind her, let's go together and see if Cody is right.
(The three head off, Shampoo avoiding going into the sea of course. Meanwhile, Team Su is having problems with using the map…)
Ken: (over microphone) It would have helped if we could see where you are going…
Haley: (fuzzy) Just follow the directions on the map as best as you can Ken-san.
Yolei: (fuzzy) Ken, Haley figured out how to use the radar, it's shows up the spot where we have to go, we're certain of that.
Ken: How certain?
Giselle: (fuzzy) Because it said 'This is where you have to go' on the radar.
Ken: (sweatdrops) I guess that would work.
Haley: But it will only work properly when we get there, so we still need your help…
Duplica: Haley, Yolei, Giselle, how's the traffic looking?
Yolei: Free and clear!
Haitani: How did you do that?
Haley: Trade secret.
Haitani: I'm not going to ask.
Duplica: Guys, from the map, we're heading north from where you are…
(Shot of car)
Haley: (smiles) …so we should just follow the road, right?
Duplica: (fuzzy) Yes, follow the road and our instructions.
Giselle: Well, you heard what she said.
(Haley takes off, as they follow the road…never said anything about flying above it.)
Yukino: (shrugs) It's not braking the law as long as they got jets. (Mills Lane voice) I'll allow it!
* * * *
TEAM BEAN (15 MINS GONE)
(Following Team Screen's instructions, Touji, Akari and Shampoo head off to where they stated to see the big man sitting down)
Akari: Um…excuse me, are you Bean Bandit?
(The man stands up…and up…and up…)
Akari: (sweatdrops) He's big.
Bean: That's me alright.
(Bean Bandit, a massive figure is intimidating to even the bravest of me. He wears practically anything bulletproof (NOTE: He is sort of a friend to Rally Vincent (Gunsmith Cats) in the manga version, this brings to an interesting challenge later on in the series, but I digress)
Bean: So, you kids are my company are you?
Touji: And…(nervous)…you don't mind?
Bean: (shrugs) They are paying me my fee, so I'm not complaining. But don't scratch the car…the cops do that enough.
Shampoo: Where is big man's car anyway?
Bean: Big man's car is just this way, now let's beat it!
(As team Bean, head for an upstart garage, Team Tamago are having a few problems, but it's not the car…)
TEAM TAMAGO
Giselle: Look, yes, we're flying, but we can still follow the roads, so how come you're so undecided with the directions?
Haitani: Give us a break, it's not like the Japanese are used to American mapping systems…
Ken: …but we should be used to giving directions. This is a mess and a half.
Haley: The radar signals north-east, anyone confirm?
Duplica: Let's see…on the map there are two roads heading there which will get there, the quicker seems to be….(hesitates)…I think it's the one to the east, it seems the shortest.
Haley: (smiles) That's more like it!
Yolei: Wait a sec…
(Too late, Haley has decided to go that way, ignoring the petrified people on the ground, whether that is because of the At-Field or the flying car is anyone's guess…)
Giselle: We can't go too high because of the jet thrusters, so we can still follow the roads, just not in polluted traffic (coughs), geez, maybe we weren't so smart doing this assignment.
Yolei: Don't jinx us!
* * * *
(25 MINUTES GONE)
Yukino: Team Screen, your job is done. Now, I order you to relax. You can watch the challenge now…and remember, NO HELP THIS TIME EITHER!
(Chiharu motions a zip across her mouth, Naoko jokes that it would be the first time that happened.)
Yukino: Team Bandit, better get ready…
(Rika, Naoko and Chiriko nod as now they take control of the screen. This is the one advantage they have over Team Su, the fact that they can at least see where they are going…)
TEAM BEAN
Bean: O.K kids, here we are!
(We are now outside a garage door which has WAY too much security for a garage door)
Bean: Can't be too careful especially with the new paint job…
Touji: Just for a paint job?
Bean: Well, it was reinforced by tank armor.
Shampoo: Armor?
(Bean inputs a final password, where the door opens. Touji quickly realises what he means…)
Touji: That's quite extravagant…
(The Roadbuster car, is a pretty piece of work to say the least. A big red car, it is fitted, with pretty much everything defence wise, bullet proof glass, state of the art armor, 0 to 60 in 3 seconds, capable of speeds up to 210mph, well, it's a wrecking machine…like Bean himself.)
Akari: This…isn't going to be much fun is it?
Bean: Hop on honey and you'll find out.
(The three do so, as they quick find out that the words 'road' and 'block' don't seem to work to fit in Bean's vocab)
Bean: Oh, seat belts.
Akari: (dazed) Too late for that…
Shampoo: (dazed) Shampoo seeing stars…
Touji: This is becoming a bit nasty…
TEAM BANDIT
Chiriko: O.K guys, the map says that the Lance is located north-west of you, but we'd better hurry, we need to get there quickly, the other guys are on their way to the Turtle site.
Naoko: Can you see where you're going?
Touji: Naoko, we're a bit…busy…
(The screen shows Bean with his 'careful' driving, i.e. trying to find any short cut without doing too much property damage. If you've watched Bean Bandit or even Gunsmith Cats, that type of careful driving. If not, think Die Hard With A Vengence type damage…)
Rika: Do you think they can even hear directions?
Bean: I can hear you guys…I need directions.
Naoko: I guess we never considered the driver…
(As Naoko and Chiriko do their best to decipher the map, team Su and Tamago are quickly realising that teamwork is now working…)
Duplica: Is there some sort of satellite link in there Haley?
Haley: Yes, it's what is work to the radar.
Duplica: If it's working the radar…
Yolei: …then that means it must have a direct course as well!
(Yolei quickly hops to join Haley in the front of the seat (causing Haley to blush), as she begins to fiddle about the radar)
Giselle: Hey, Yolei, you screwed up once before, why should I…
(As soon as she says that, the radar now flashes a bit higher, with a view of a map and the direction to go. Yolei turns and gives a satisfied smirk to Giselle)
Yolei: You were saying?
(Giselle pouts but ignores her and continues to watch on as Haley continues driving.)
Yolei: Guys, we've got a clear view now!
(Duplica, Ken and Haitani high five as their job is now pretty much unnecessary)
* * * *
45 MINUTES GONE
(Things look free and clear for Haley and company now, however Bean Bandit's driving isn't quite an experience Akari wants…)
Akari: Guys…I'm going to be sick…
Touji: Bean, can you stop?
Bean: On the pavement, are you nuts?
Shampoo: You've been driving there since start, we should stop now, Shampoo need rest.
Bean: (sighs) Very well.
(Back at the booth, Team Bandit aren't too happy…)
Naoko: What are they doing?
Chiriko: They are stopping…
Rika: What for?
Chiriko: I guess…
(Shot of Akari trying to throw up, fortunately, nothing comes out. Shampoo is also resting, whilst Touji just wants to get on with it…)
(…however, they are about to get a rude awakening…)
????: ROADBUSTER!
Yukino (VO): Sadly…we've decided to give Bean an incentive to get to the Lance ASAP. Because we've tangled an old friend to chase him…and if he catches him, it means trouble…
(Shot of a police car, and Bean's old nemesis, Percy, comes out)
Percy: I've got you this time Roadbuster! Evidence of causing public damage, and kidnapping, this time I will throw the book at y…
Bean: Hey, my main man Percy, how have you been?
(Percy glows purple with rage)
Percy: This isn't a pleasure trip Roadbuster! Now are you going to come quietly…
Bean: Guys, in now, this is going to be fun…I suggest you get secure…
(The guys decide to give Bean the benefit of the doubt, and get back in. Akari, grabs onto Touji's metal arm and puts her head on his chest. Touji gulps.)
Touji: Hikari isn't seeing this, Hikari isn't seeing this, Hikari isn't seeing this…
(Shampoo hangs onto the back seat)
Shampoo: Roadbuster-boy, if you were to hurt police person there, would you be in trouble?
Bean: (smiles) Nah, let the poor sucker off, let him be.
(Shampoo shrugs)
Shampoo: Shampoo wanted exercise.
(Back at the TV, Naoko screams)
Naoko: Shampoo, don't hurt him! If you do, we'll lose the challenge!
Rika: We will if they get caught as well.
Chiriko: Get out of there!
(Bean obliges and the Roadbuster and his crew, a nervous boy, a scared girl and a dazed but bored Amazon continue their trip)
Bean: We gotta lose him in this, otherwise we'll never get to the Lance!
(Bean decides to take one of his many 'shortcuts', through a park. Percy follows…and crashes into a hydrant, as Percy screws up again)
Percy: (vein) ROAD-BUSTER! WE'RE NOT FINISHED…AS SOON AS I FIND A REPAIR SHOP, YOU'RE DOOMED!!!
(Shampoo does the eye-bob/tongue to the authority, as Bean's knowledge of LA is about to come into play, aided by two Tomoeda girls and a young man from Ancient China)
* * * *
Chiharu: That was some ride!
Cody: Anyway, Miss Yukino how far are we now?
Yukino: 1 hour gone, and it seems Team Tamago is nearly there…
(Thanks to air Haley, and tech Yolei, Team Tamago are about to head towards the launching site. As soon as they do, their job is done.)
(And now the reason why we called a team, Team Su, because…er…well…)
????: Yay! Smart-car! Smart-car!
(In case you didn't work it out, our other cameo for this time is Miss Kaolla Su, our genki little girl from Love Hina)
Haley: Is that our stop?
Yolei: Land this thing Haley my boy!
(Haley does, with a bit of difficulty, but eventually holds it down. Isn't it fitting that the operator of the last smart car in this was also a Nadesico rep (Ruri: Mole 1 – AE))
Su: You're here to blast off?
Giselle: No, not us, we are waiting for something to be used.
Su: Roger!
(Su shows them the thing, which Haley inspects. The Mecha-Tamago Version 4:01, basically has the sights automatically locked onto the AT Field, thanks to Mishima Conglomerate (NOTE: This is the Mishima fron Nuku-Nuku, not Tekken) and their satellite system. All they have to do is fire…)
(…but they need something to fire with.)
* * * *
1 HR 10 MINUTES GONE
(It's all up to Teams Bean and Bandit to win this thing…)
Touji: I'm amazed you haven't broke down yet!
(From the screen, some of the others are now shouting encouragement…)
Haitani/Kensuke: Keep your filthy hands of her!
(O.K, maybe not…)
Bean: This car is as tough as me pal…now hold on, (to headphone which used to be Akari's, but she's kinda petrified) young man, is this the final turn?
Chiriko: Yes! Sharp turn to the left…
(The turn is actually quite straight, but Bean follows Chiriko's instruction and nearly crashes…fortunately the car is made of more than sturdy stuff as Bean heads to the weapons site…)
Bean: O.K, that wasn't as sharp as I expected, but we're coming up here…
(The weapons site where the Lance, wrapped in immense cloth, is a pretty big weapon.)
Bean: We've got to attach it to the car, move it guys!
Naoko: Can they move it?
Rika: From what I know, it would take an Evangelion to lift it in the first place…
(Shot of Touji at a crane, working the movements to lift the Lance as the two girls back at base sweatdrop)
Rika/Naoko: Never mind.
(This is helped however by Shampoo and in particular Bean, whose immense strength is capable of lifting cars and vans easy, and has withstood a full on crush from a van into another car…that's how damn tough he is. Akari is pretty amazed with Bean's strength as Shampoo is…slightly impressed.)
Shampoo: He not bad, no Ranma though.
* * * *
Giselle: So when the Lance comes, you can lift it up in this thing?
(Shot of Su, in a robot/mecha similar to a Gundam, the Su-chan formerly known as Kentaro Robot Mark 3)
Su: Su will lift the lance onto the Mecha Tamago and make bit explosion! Field melt like jelly pudding! Are At-fields good to eat?
Haley: (sweatdrop) Kaolla-san…
Yolei: It's been 1 hr and 30 minutes now, can they make it…
(Can they?)
Bean: Let's go!
Akari: Can the car handle the lance?
Bean: This car has handled everything I've come across so far, I don't intend to stop now, not even a mole could stop this car…
(Bean heads off into the unknown abyss as the three hang on for dear life, they need to make time…)
* * * *
Rika: Come on guys, we need to get there, it's due east my friends, due east…
Chiriko: I thought it was west…
Rika: (gasps) Oops, I'm sorry!
Naoko: Rika, you have problems with right and left?
Rika: I…I guess I do.
(Naoko regards Rika for a moment before realising the car is at a standstill.)
Touji: A direction for real now please guys?
Naoko: Actually, Rika is right! It is east! Sorry guys, keep going!
(The car goes, as in the distance, we can see poor Percy dragging his destroyed car for another down payment, and uttering a curse to get that damn Roadbuster one day…)
* * * *
1 hr 50 minutes gone…
Chiharu: They're nearly there!
(Shot of Team Bean crashing near the site, as Bean puts the pedal to the metal to get up there. He does as Su in her robot reaches to him…the screen back at base now vanishes to be replaced by the picture of the AT-Field, held by the invisible angel.)
TIMER: 9:58…57…46…
Ken: They've got 10 minutes to do, go for it guys!
Yukino: Sorry, they can't hear you now…they've got to do this last bit by themselves.
(Back at the turtle base)
Su: Let me get for you my friend!
(Su grabs the Lance in her robot like it was paper, as Bean regards it with a bit of confusion)
Bean: I've seen some weird stuff in my time, but…
Akari: Not as weird…
Touji: …as some of the stuff we've…
Shampoo: seen.
(Yolei and Haley pretty much agree as well, as Su carefully puts the lance on the Mecha-Tamago.)
Haley: Fire in the hole! Countdown…
All: 10…9…8…7…6…5…4…3…2…1…fire!
(Haley presses the button as the Lance blasts into the distance. On the screen back at the base, the guys see a flash of white, a series of hexagonal shapes appear briefly…and then the white, shapes and Lance disipate into the air.)
MISSION COMPLETED
Haitani: THEY DID IT!
(Rika, Chiharu and Naoko hug and then, despite a bit of embarrassment, let Chiriko in as well. Cody, Ken, Haitani and Kensuke all high five as Duplica simply sighs in relief after the slump has ended.)
(Back on the base, Akari collapses from exhaustation but manages to hug Touji as well. Shampoo is hesitant, but Akari simply hugs her anyway, Shampoo surprisingly accepting it. Yolei glomps Haley, causing the poor boy to turn red, as Giselle shakes her head in disgust, but smiles anyway.)
(After Skuld picks them up, it's back to the café, for celebrations.)
* * * *
Yukino: Congratulations to you guys for that challenge, 15 grand in the bank and thanks to our friends and cameos, Bean and Su for their help. And before anyone asks, why didn't I disqualify you for Bean's incensitive driving. One, we're in downtown LA, that is pretty much a kind word these days, and two…none of you were doing the driving. So, you're safe there.
(All smile)
Yukino: Did the mole screw up? Well, maybe. However, I'd like to say that when Team Tamago left, they had a choice of two directions, and Team Bean actually chose to take them the LONGER way. Granted, it didn't really matter in the end…but…also, delaying tactics. All teams were guilty of this, particularly Team's Bean and Bandit, but who in particular?
(All start to get their eyes of suspicion)
Yukino: However, despite the Mole's attempts, you won the game, and now, we've got a night to get to bed to. So, let's go have something to eat, sleep…WAKE UP AT 8…(glares at Haitani) and get another Mole challenging day to prepare for.
(Yukino leaves to get a hotel, as the guys and girls congratulate each other)
Touji: I didn't frisk her!
Kensuke: She was quiet attached to you…
Akari: I was scared, O.K?
Shampoo: Box-girl scared? Amazon's have no fear of anything…
Touji: So those spirals were for direction then?
Shampoo: Listen…
Akari: And Chiriko, you were confusing us with your directions?
Chiriko: I'm sorry…
Giselle: Guys, I think we're missing the point. We got through this after a foul morning, so can we just relax and enjoy the night?
Naoko: Never thought Giselle would be the one to calm us down…
(They nod as they all rejoin as a group, but not without Giselle giving a sly look to Chiriko…)
* * * *
(That night, Giselle decides to try again on her Chiriko mission…)
Giselle: This time…
(Giselle, who is splitting a room with Duplica, decides to head out. Chiriko, the only person on his own, in the room…)
ROOM LIST –
Room 1: Chiharu, Naoko
Room 2: Haitani, Haley
Room 3: Duplica, Giselle
Room 4: Touji, Kensuke
Room 5: Rika, Shampoo
Room 6: Ken, Cody
Room 7: Akari, Yolei
Room 8: Chiriko
Giselle: O.K, take two…
(She heads over to Room 8, where Chiriko is…but stops…)
Giselle: (to herself) I thought he was on his own…
(But indeed, there are two voices, and one of them belongs to a girl…)
Giselle: Who is in th…
Chiriko: I'm glad you came here Miss Rika.
Giselle: (to herself) Rika, what she doing there?
Rika: It's O.K, I felt you needed some company. After all, they were pretty much accusing you of the mole back there…
Chiriko: I know…it feels…well…
Rika: Yes?
Chiriko: Well, someone used my name to get close to the Suzaku Seven, his name was Amiboshi I believe. When they found out he wasn't the real Chiriko, he nearly killed them with his music, if I hadn't disrupted the music with mine then…
Rika: Oh Chiriko, I didn't realise…
Chiriko: It's O.K. The man, Amiboshi, he wasn't evil, I could tell, and I think the Priestess did as well.
Rika: You can see kind hearts right. You play music then?
Chiriko: Yes…but compared to the things I've seen here it may seem primitive. Didn't you say you played a…pi—piano?
Rika: Yes.
Chiriko: Well…all I play is a simple leaf whistle.
(Shot of the two, in the near dark as we look in the room, as both the girls and guys go 'awwww' as Chiriko is a kawaii bishounen in his grey Chinese sleeping robe, whilst Rika is in a white nightdress, both of them in sleeping bags.)
Chiriko: (blushes) It…seems ridiculous compared to this age, but…
Rika: (no hint of sarcasm) Can you play a bit for me?
Chiriko: (blushes…again) Are you sure?
Rika: I'd love it if you did.
(Chiriko draws his leaf whistle, and begins to play quietly. Giselle, outside the door, looks a little angry, however, the whistle tune, is very melodic to the ears, as Giselle sighs)
Giselle: I guess I can't win. (Giselle heads back, although casts a couple of glances at the door)
(Chiriko finishes and Rika claps)
Rika: That was wonderful.
Chiriko: Thank you. You are so mature for your age Rika.
Rika: Well, so are you…(quietly)…we'd better get to sleep.
Chiriko: I guess…you heading back…
Rika: (sighs) I should. If I stayed here, you know what they might talk about, there would probably be a penalty or something…
Chiriko: I guess.
Rika: Goodnight.
(Rika leaves, as Chiriko smiles to himself)
Chiriko: Goodnight…
* * * *
8.00am – DAY 4
(It seems that the team have had a good kick in the pants as they are all out and about in time as Yukino makes her call as the 15 are eating breakfast)
Yukino: Ah, I see we are early risers after all. Currently you have £32,000 in the kitty, which means the mole isn't doing his or her job well enough…(looks round the table), so…who…is…it?
(Blank faces, nervous looks, the usual)
Yukino: (cheery) On the other hand, we're moving again, this time to a slightly cooler, but wetter place. However, 3 of you will stay here for the time being to do a separate challenge. I need you guys to pick 3 who you know can work together as a team, no matter what.
(It's tricky, as an argument between Giselle and Chiriko brings out the two obvious trios, Yolei, Ken and Cody or Rika, Chiharu and Naoko. It's tricky, but in the end, the Digidestined relent, and team Cardcaptors take the bow)
Yukino: O.K, three girls staying, 12 going off to get a bit wet, ja ne!
(As Skuld-vision (now in 5D) vanishes, Yukino stays with the CCS girls, with a smile…)
Yukino: I have a challenge for you.
* * * *
(Meanwhile…)
Akari: Oowwie!
Touji: Can you get off please?
(Akari realises her landing position wasn't the best, on top of Touji. Akari 'gomens' as the others get up from their ordeal, as Skuld just smiles.)
Skuld: Shame they'll probably not get used to this…anyway, for this challenge, we've split you guys, as 12 are needed for this game. We are…
(Shot of a massive stream as the current flows. The waterfalls are also obvious to the eye. It becomes apparent where they are)
Skuld: …in Niagra Falls! The two main waterfalls as you can see are on the Niagra River, between Ontario and Lake Eerie, between the US-Canada border. Hmm…wonders if we're missing a mole?
Haitani: I hope not, I need all the help I can get now!
Skuld: Well, basically, we've got a challenge for you, worth £5,000…as well as many other things as I will explain.
(Skuld brings out a Washu-chan diagram board, and it has a big list on it)
Skuld: The challenge is basically, you are going to work in 4 teams of 3. You will need a puller, a swimmer and a reserve, meaning they can swap with either. We will tied a rope to the swimmer, where the puller will keep safe as they swim into the river. But why you ask? Because…
(Skuld reveals a basket, where all sorts of packages are shown)
Skuld: …as you swim, I'll be throwing these things into the river, where your teams will be attempting to grab them. This list shows what is in what and when they are going to be thrown. There are some important items there, so I'll give you 5 minutes to memorise what to get. Also in that time, I suggest you choose your teams as well, remember, you need a strong swimmer, but also someone strong to hold them steady as the currents can be quite unforgiving. So, study the list…
* * * *
THE LIST;
TURN 1
2 litres of orange juice (RED)
Bear spray (GREEN)
Game Boy Advance with Mario Advance 2 (YELLOW)
Dried rations (BLUE)
Skuld: As you can see, the team are not just fighting for the money, but also for food, drink, entertainment, hygience, and also…a roof.
TURN 2
Key to log cabin (RED)
6 cans of soda (GREEN)
Candles (YELLOW)
Various meats (BLUE)
(Shot of the team discussing what to do, Chiriko being quiet, trying to memorise the list. The key to log cabin is pretty vital)
TURN 3
Torches (RED)
Deodorant and Air fresheners (GREEN)
Walkman (YELLOW)
Paints (BLUE)
(Shot of Touji and Shampoo pretty much ready, whilst some of the others, namely Giselle, Yolei and Chiriko, arguing)
TURN 4
Tent (RED)
Sleeping bags (GREEN)
Sheets (YELLOW)
Books (BLUE)
(If they miss the log cabin, then they've got to get the tent and the sleeping bags. Otherwise, camping out in bear-infested woods could get a little dangerous…)
TURN 5
Picnic goodies (RED)
CD Player (GREEN)
Mini-pinball game (YELLOW)
120 tea bags (BLUE)
(Chiriko explaining what needs to be got, especially for the last one…)
TURN 6
Ice-cream (RED)
£5,000 (GREEN)
Mobile phone (YELLOW)
Birthday cake (BLUE)
(They all agree that the green is the final most important one, and nothing else matters. If nothing else at least they agree on that…)
(Meanwhile…)
* * * *
Yukino: Well, my three little dearies, we have a bit challenge for you, but it's worth £5,000, so no slacking off. We are here, at a local go-kart track, and we are going to have a little 6 lap race.
(Rika, Chiharu and Naoko nod as Yukino continues)
Yukino: And for this, we are going for 6 people just as under the spotlight as you're more well known comprades. Come on in!
(6 people, all the same age or similar to the CCS girls enter. 5 of them are girls, with 1 of them glomping onto the sole boy there)
Konoha: Hiroto, j'taime!
Hiroto: Get off me you moron!
Eimi: Stop it, that is against school roles Miss Konoha!
(The first three are Konoha, Hiroto and Eimi, from Magical Project R (aka, Pretty Sammy TV) The second three stooges are at least a little more controlled…)
Mami: Is that girl as hyper as Sana-chan?
Hisae: I don't really want to think about it…
Aya: I miss home already…
(These three are Mami, Hisae and Aya, from Kodomo No Omocha, Sana's schoolfriends. Rika, Naoko and Chiharu look on with interest…)
Chiharu: I wonder if anybody here has something that resembles a normal life?
Yukino: Never mind that, you guys have got to beat this 6 in a 6 lap race. One of you will take the first two legs, another the second two and the final contestant to take the final two. These 6 will be taking one leg at a time, around this go-kart course. The controls are pretty safe, at least I hope they are…
Naoko: Miss Yukino, you're not exactly helping out our confidence…
Yukino: (smiles) That means I'm doing my job then!
(The girls sweatdrops, as they get up, and speaking of getting set up…)
* * * *
(The teams have split into their teams of water. After testing the water, which is ice cold, they made these teams.)
NORTH TEAM
Swimmer: Akari
Puller: Haitani
Reserve: Cody
EAST TEAM
Swimmer: Giselle
Puller: Shampoo
Reserve: Haley
SOUTH TEAM
Swimmer: Kensuke
Puller: Touji
Reserve: Chiriko
WEST TEAM
Swimmer: Duplica
Puller: Ken
Reserve: Yolei
Shampoo: Why is it always water?
(The swimmers have been attached with ropes, as the pullers make sure they aren't swept downstream. The reserves are there in case one needs to break, doing badly or for whatever reason.)
Skuld: (on top of the bank with four coloured packages) Each team really should go for one of these for each team. It will move downstream where the teams will attempt to grab them via swimming, the pullers keeping a good hold on them. So, first up…
(Skuld pushes them into the river below)
Skuld: Bombs away!
Haitani: Go!
Shampoo: Don't lose this one!
Touji: I've got you buddy!
Kensuke (in the cold water): Th-that's what I'm wo-worried about!
Ken: Let's do this!
(The first lot of packages is in the water, and the swimmers make a dive for it. Akari, who has trained by swimming UP waterfalls gets the start as Haitani holds on for dear life. Akari quickly grabs the red package, and swims back. Giselle is well held by Shampoo and she gets the blue package. Kensuke desperately makes a desperation grab and manages to get the yellow package. However, Duplica doesn't get a good enough start to swim to the green package. 3 out of 4.)
Skuld: (VO) – So, they got the orange juice, the Game Boy Advance, and the dried rations, looks like a nice night in.
(On the bank)
Duplica: Did you hold me enough?
Ken: The current was stronger than I thought…
Yolei: Oh Ken, let me try, please…
Ken: Hold it, wait a couple of turns…
Haitani: Akari, you were great!
Akari: Thank you very much!
Cody: As long as we can maintain that kind of momentum…
Giselle: Well, Shampoo, I guess…you do have some uses.
Shampoo: Humph…Shampoo not do it anymore then…
Giselle: I'm just kidding! Sheesh…
Haley: Girl's arguments are weird…
Giselle/Shampoo: WHAT WAS THAT?
Haley: (sweatdrops): Nothing.
Kensuke: I guess I can trust you old buddy…
Touji: Was there any doubt?
Chiriko: Actually, I roughly estimated a 66.3% chance of success so there was plenty of doubt…
Touji: (sweatdrops) Kid, not so thorough please…
Skuld (VO): Now here comes the second lot. As Chiriko relays instructions, the red package is the vital one, as it means a nice cabin for them. Let's see if they can remember that.
(Skuld drops the bomb, but to the groups dismay, the red package doesn't come near Akari, their strongest swimmer, instead comes to Kensuke, and to make matters worse, it comes at a criss-cross with the blue package, and he makes a grab at one…the blue one. Akari tries in vain to get it, and totally misses the yellow package near her. Giselle gets the green one as Duplica doesn't even get a sniff of a package. 2 out of 4.)
Skuld: Oh dear. That means they have to get the tents and sleeping bags on turn 4, otherwise…
* * * *
(Go-karting)
(After a bit of arguing, and occasionally glomping by Konoha (and being reprimanded by Eimi), the team seems ready to drive. The first leg will be driven by Naoko, the second by Chiharu and the third by Rika. For team minor, Aya is taking the first leg.)
Aya: (nervous) Good luck…
Naoko: Thank you!
Yukino: Ready kids? And go!
(Naoko and Aya begin their go karts (circa. Mario Kart, 1992) as they battle down the laps, which is a straight, a zig zag like bend, then a tough turn, another bend and one final stretch before tagging to the next person.)
(Naoko takes the early lead as she's a bit more aggressive than Aya in the racing. She navigates round the zig-zag well, always thinking ahead. She continues with Aya trailing by about 3 metres, being more careful.)
Mami: Come on Aya!
Hisae: If you don't do well, I'll tell Tsuyoshi how bad you were!
(The word 'Tsuyoshi' strikes a cord with young Aya, and she suddenly starts going faster, much to Naoko's surprise…and it distracts her as she turns into the final stretch, and skids across the tires, slowing her down a fair bit. Aya is pretty much neck a neck with Naoko as the CCS rep has to do another lep as Aya gets ready to tag to Mami.)
(As soon as Aya passes, Mami starts driving, with Naoko edging a slight lead, now more used to the course. Mami is also not too aggressive, but is trying her best, and being more careful along the zig-zag. On the sidelines, Chiharu is getting into lane.)
Chiharu: O.K, come on Naoko!
Rika: (smiling) Come on Chiharu, get through this.
Chiharu: I will!
(Naoko goes round the tough bend, with about a 2 metre advantage on Mami. Naoko continues, not distracted this time, as she prepares to go down the final stretch, with Mami speeding up as she comes to the stretch, as Naoko prepares to let Chiharu let her mad driving skills take over…)
* * * *
(Waterfalls)
(Turn 3, and Skuld drops the items down. It's a case of get anything here, although it's obvious that the water is a bit of a problem for the now cold swimmers. Akari gets the green package, but the other three are struggling…Giselle misses the yellow package by centimetres, Kensuke is no-where near the blue, and Duplica, for the third time, misses the package she was going for, red.)
(As they leave, changes are felt to be made…)
Ken: You've missed all three!
Duplica: (shivering) I know…I'm sorry…
Yolei: You look cold, want me to take over…
Duplica: I can continue…(nearly collapses, as Ken catches her before she falls)
Yolei: Yeah, right.
(Yolei is now going to be the swimmer, as Duplica rests on the bank. Despite conversations, Giselle and Kensuke remain the swimmers for the other teams, Akari although cold, is pretty much the stayer for team North as well.)
Skuld (VO) – A change for team West, will it work though, because another vital item is coming into play, the tent AND the sleeping bags. Miss the tent in particular, and they are going to be in trouble…
(Skuld throws them in, as the four swimmers enter. The change quickly proves dividends for Team West as Yolei grabs the yellow package, and Akari grabs the green one. Giselle has almost got the vital red one when…)
Giselle: Near then…(pulls a bit harder…and then, disaster…)
(The force of Giselle's stretch catches Shampoo by surprise, and she slips into the freezing river, with the resulting affect.)
(As Haley fishes Shampoo out, there is now another problem, Giselle has to swim back against the current, which is exhausting without anyone pulling her. Kensuke ignores the blue package and goes to help her. Despite Giselle's hesitations, she relucantly accepts as Touji (with Chiriko's help) with his strength drags the two back to bank.)
Giselle: That curse must really suck…
Neko-Shampoo: (sarcastic) Meow…
Skuld: Oh dear. Not only did they fail to get the tent, but with Shampoo neko-fied, a forced change is needed, and worse, Giselle is getting too tired, so Haley is forced to swim with Giselle pulling, this could be a problem…
* * * *
(Race)
Yukino: Chiharu and Hisae are now running neck a neck!
(Into the 3rd lap, and Hisae, the most aggressive of the three KNO girls, is giving Chiharu, the most aggressive of the CCS girls, a run for her money. The two are pretty much tied as they come into the final stretch, where Eimi will take over from MPR.)
(However, we've decided to add another little problem into the path…)
Eimi: I'll go as fast as I can, even if it's against the rules!
Chiharu: You're worse than Yamazaki!
(Chiharu and Eimi begin to race with the fourth lap…but…suddenly, some music with a beat comes on…)
Yukino: What the?
(A cloud of smoke appears before the two girls can turn into the zig-zap part of the course…)
????: Everybody calls me a magical girl, but that is because I am a magical girl!
Hiroto: Oh no, not….
????: And they call me, and they call me…
(The smoke clears, to reveal a fairly tall girl with blond hair, a wild outfit, and a metal fan/baton)
????: PIXY MISA!
Chiharu: Hey, get out of the road!
Eimi: Yes, blocking the traffic is against the rules!
Misa: Of course I'll get out of the road…not!
(The two girls facefault as Misa takes the stage)
Misa: We should call this Misamole, because I am the true star! Now, let's have a little fun shall we…
(In a trademark maho shoujo pose, Misa twirls a bit with her baton…)
Misa: CALLING…MYSTICS!
(Her baton blasts a bit of magic towards a couple of tyres, who begin to come to life.)
Misa: Go, Tyre Girls! Intercept them as best as you can! (laughs as all good villains do)
Konoha: Oh no Hiroto, what are we going to do, please let us die together…(realises she's hugging empty space)…huh, Hiroto?
(The 'Tyre Girls' are doing their job of keeping Eimi and Chiharu to drive, as Rika and Naoko are wondering what the heck is going on. Misa continues laughing…)
(…until Hiroto from the blind side knocks the baton out of her hand…and as he does this, Misa dislocates her wrist…)
Misa: OW! OW! OW! OW!
Yukino: She's weak…
Hiroto: Anyone who disregards sports will be punished!
(The 'Tyre' Girls revert back to their normal forms, as a bird perches on Misa's shoulder and sighs)
Rumiya: (the bird) Misa, if this keeps up, nee-san will become an old lady before too long…(Rumiya picks up the shocked Misa by the shoulders and straining to drag the 'evil' (she's evil like Team Rocket evil) Pixy Misa out of there. Oh yeah, there's a race to continue…)
(Chiharu and Eimi push back the tyres and continue driving. Chiharu now takes the lead as she turns the corner…but…)
Chiharu: Hey, what's going on?
(Her car starts to slow down and as she tries, she cannot move it much faster, especially compared to Eimi. Eimi passes her down the straight as Chiharu can only trundle towards the finish line as Eimi passes Konoha, the 5th lap ready to go)
Konoha: Hiroto, send me one of your love drives!
Eimi: Konoha-san, I don't know why but that's against the rules!
Konoha: Now that idiot girl has gone, we can drive to the lover's heaven in our hearts! My prince beside me in our fairy castle and…
Hiroto: Um, Konoha?
Konoha: (stars in her eyes) Yes?
Hiroto: That other girl just past you.
Konoha: What?
(Fortunately, because Konoha is an idiot, Chiharu still managed to get past her as Rika takes the final leg. Konoha fumes as she finally realises there is a race to win…or lose.)
* * * *
(Waterfall)
(With Haley now swimming, turn 5 begins. All focus is on the last one though, as Chiriko tells them that blue is the only one which could be needed. Blue fortunately comes to Akari as she grabs it, Haley however, is not too strong a swimmer and misses the green one by a mile. Kensuke is now getting better and stronger and snatches the red one out of the water, Yolei however misses the yellow one by about a foot.)
Skuld: With this final round, if they miss this one (points to the green package), they lose the £5,000. Here we go!
Chiriko: Everyone, green! Nothing else doesn't matter!
(The group echoes Chiriko's words as Skuld drops the final lot. The green one is targetted by all four members, but it comes closest to Kensuke. The Eva man gets it with a celebration, the other three items forgotten. It doesn't matter.)
CHALLENGE COMPLETED
Skuld: So, this part is done…but what of the others?
* * * *
(Race)
(Rika is surprisingly strong in the race, conservative but edgy, and Konoha hasn't made up any time whatsoever on a decent lead Rika has. Chiharu and Naoko are cheering their friend on as Konoha turns round the bend, Rika 3 metres ahead. As Rika passes, she continues on with focus.)
(But so does Hiroto, who doesn't waste any time and drives aggressively, ignoring Konoha's cheerleading. Hiroto works into speed well and the lead gradually reduces. Rika realises she need to drive more aggressively, but is nervous of Hiroto's reckless style.)
(The bend turns and Rika nearly skids as Hiroto turns and goes ahead of her into the stretch. Rika puts on the speed, but it is too little too late as Rika cannot keep up with Hiroto. He passes first, as team Mole lose.)
CHALLENGE FAILED – So close…so close…
(Rika exits, disappointed, but gets a consoling hug from Chiharu and then from Naoko. Konoha of course glomps Hiroto (and of course, he rejects it as Eimi lectures them). Aya smiles, Hisae pumps her fist in the air as Mami looks relieved)
Yukino: A very good race from all of you, however, Rika, Chiharu and Naoko, you guys came close, but close isn't good in this came. You lost. So let's go wait for Skuld, and we'll rejoin you with your teammates.
(The girls disappointed, leave.)
Chiharu: If my car hadn't conked out we would have won that! I don't get it!
Naoko: It's unlucky, but you wonder if it was unlucky or something worse…
Rika: I just couldn't drive as quickly as he did, I was so nervous in that car…
* * * *
(In the falls area, the three girls rejoin their group(including a human Shampoo). A lot of the swimmers have towels around them, and having hot chocolate to warm them up. Yukino and Skuld begin talking about what happened in the respective challenges, as they motion for a hush. They all get up)
Yukino: Well, we had two challenge today, and it seems the old cliché, you win some, you lose some, applied here today. You see, Rika, Chiharu and Naoko went go-carting and although close, failed to win their challenge.
Chiharu: We are so sorry guys…
Haley: That's O.K, you tried your best.
Giselle: Was it good enough though?
Yukino: (interrupting) However, on the plus side, the waterfalls were a source of inspiration here, and the group not only won the money, but won the following items as well.
Skuld: 2 litres of orange juice, Game Boy Advance with Mario Advance 2, Dried rations, 6 cans of soda, Various meats, Deodorant and Air fresheners, Sleeping bags, Sheets, Picnic goodies and 120 tea bags. Going to be a fun night in…
(They cheer)
Yukino: …well it would be, but you've got a problem. You see, you failed to get the key to the log cabin, or the tent. Now, sleeping outside in the bear woods and living to tell about it isn't too common here…
(Akari whimpers)
Yukino: …so here's the deal. Here is the key to the log cabin, which will cost you half your winning in this challenge, £2,500. Deal?
Ken: I guess so.
Haley: Not much choice really…
(The consensus is O.K, as Yukino hands Giselle the key)
Yukino: I think you made a wise move there, That's £2,500 lost, but you've still won a bit of money this episode, £17,500, putting your total to £34,500. Not a bad few days work, and you've got a cabin to go to. However, tonight, one of you will lose the chance to win the money because we've got a quiz to go to…
Haitani: Oh no…
Yukino: Don't want to go the way of your buddy Haitani? Then, (gets the scripts) read these. They could be very useful especially considering that you 12 have no idea what happened with Rika, Chiharu and Naoko, and vice versa. Tonight, you may need these more than you think. Now, it's time for you to head to your home for tonight…
(As Skuld prepares to take off, the group realises that tonight, they lose another one…)
* * * *
(The cabin is tough for 15 people to live in, but they don't have much of a choice as they didn't win the tent. Outside, Yukino and Skuld prepare a fire as Yukino is ready to study her own work, whilst inside the cabin, they are studying the Mole's work…)
Chiharu: O.K Rika, we're sticking together right…
Rika: Hmmm!
Naoko: Let's work together on this and we should be fine!
(elsewhere)
Chiriko: Are you confident?
Haley: Not really, but I'm going through this as well as I can. I've got my suspicions of course…
Chiriko: Am I one of them?
Haley: Ummm…
Chiriko: (laughs) Just say it, I don't mind.
Haley: (sighs) Yes, but then again so are half a dozen other people.
Chiriko: That's O.K, you're one of mine as well.
(Haley seems stunned, but then smiles.)
Haley: Past vs. future…yet still the same, great minds think alike.
(The two laugh, as Giselle watches afar, whilst studying. On the other hand, her Pokémon comrade is busy writing note in her Ditto notebook.)
Ken: You O.K?
Duplica: Yeah…just want to win this…
Cody: We all do I think. (Cody shows his matching notebook, one with Armadillonmon of course as Yolei ponders over)
Yolei: Comparing notes? Let's see…(scowls) hey Dup, what's the idea my name there?!
Duplica: Well, gotta look through everyone!
Yolei: Well, considering I suspect you I guess it's O.K. (Does the eyelid/tongue as Duplica replies…but then Yolei's eyes bug out) WHAT? Cody, you traitor!
(On Cody notebook is indeed, Yolei's name and notes, although Ken's is also there)
Ken: You suspect me as well?
Cody: I suspect everyone…(notices Yolei's glare)…um, think I need to go to the toilet.
(As Yolei is about to be charged for Cody-slaughter, Shampoo hasn't even bothered to look at the script. She must be supremely confident, intelligent and…)
Shampoo: Stupid language.
(Of course.)
Haitani: (sighs) I really hope that I'm not going next. After Shirai went last time, I fear I could be next.
Touji: It's O.K man, we promised to stay together, so we'll compare notes, right Kensuke?
Kensuke: Of course, trust me, I need all the help I can as well, even from Haitani!
Haitani: (sweatdrops) Thanks a lot…
(Akari pops over)
Akari: Hey, mind if I join you?
(The look of Haitani and Kensuke's face says 'hell yeah'. The look on Touji's says 'oh brother')
Akari: Thanks, it's hard being around boys for me, I'm used to being surrounded by girls…
(Kensuke and Haitani are either on the verge of fury or a nosebleed, fortunately Touji calms them down)
Touji: She's at a girl athletics meet remember, it's only girls there.
(The two breathe a sigh of relief as Akari begins studying with the guys with Touji quipping 'I wonder what those two guys are REALLY studying.' However, they have to get as much as they can because the quiz is coming now…)
* * * *
(Outside, chestnuts roasting on an open fire, the 15 take the quiz. Shot of Shampoo taking it…)
Shampoo: Stupid-boy and stupid-girl made Shampoo kitty cat today, knowing I too strong. One of those is mole, that Haitani or Giselle…
(Shot of Kensuke taking the quiz, Q: What year is the mole from? He takes a good while before answering 'present')
Kensuke: I cannot ignore the fact that Duplica screwed up so much in the river or Giselle caught Shampoo into the river. I'm leaning towards one of those two, Giselle slightly ahead now.
(Shot of Ken taking the quiz. He's having a good think)
Ken: Rika is more of a suspect now after she unintentionally cost us any chance of winning when she helped me out of the sand trap. Plus, I'm not sure what happened at the races, but the fact that Rika went last makes me think that sabotage could be in order…
(Shot of Akari taking the quiz. 'What team was the mole in for the 'mine for ore' challenge?)
Akari: Yolei and Ken are my choices for the mole so far, they look so good together that it wouldn't surprise me if one was the mole. Both have done plenty suspicious stuff as wel.
(Shot of Haitani next, looking over a question…)
Haitani: After last night, I don't want to go next. I think something in the way we lost half the money was an indirect mole attempt, and I had a good look from the bank to see who made the mistakes, and Giselle and Kensuke were the ones who screwed up those. They are my suspects, even if Kensuke is a great guy.
(Shot of Cody doing the quiz, Q5 'In the 'Angel' challenge, what team was the mole on?'. He answers team Bandit.)
Cody: Naoko and Chiriko are very suspect to me, Chiriko more so now because of his less than accurate directions in the Angel Challenge, plus he indirectly cost us money even though we already lost the ore challenge, just to make sure…
(Giselle taking the quiz with a confident smile)
Giselle: Chiriko is still a suspect, but Yolei is now big in my eyes. In the smart car, she seemed to let Haley do all the work, and the two of us seemed to butt heads. Maybe she realises I'm the one she has to get rid of…which is natural of course.
(Haley is taking the quiz, Q7, 'What room was the mole in at the night in LA?')
Haley: Cody didn't do too much, but I still suspect him. Duplica is also a major suspect considering her performance on the bank, but I'll still spread my answers a bit until I'm more sure.
(Rika taking the quiz, a soft smile on her delicate features)
Rika: Giselle is still high on my list, but I'm always thinking about every challenge we're in. I've dismissed my two friends into being the mole, so I'm looking at all angles, and so far, the person that could have done the most sabotage is Akari.
(Chiharu taking the quiz, looking very nervous)
Chiharu: Haitani, Kensuke and Touji, I think there is something behind those outlooks and one could hide a mole. Kensuke in particular would be good mole material…thanks Naoko!
(Shot of Touji on the quiz, Q8, 'What team was the mole in the waterfall game?')
Touji: I can't discount Kensuke, but Akari…the way she came into the team and readily distracted us, that seems to be a mole sabotage even without thinking about it…she is a natural at this game if that's the case.
(Chiriko very calmly going through the questions quickly)
Chiriko: Rika is quickly becoming my friend here…and is also my top mole suspect. That maturity in someone so young is something a mole would be brilliant to have. Haley also merits suspicions, the whole future thing is still in my head.
(Duplica on the quiz, sweating as the fire heats up the tension)
Duplica: Rika, Rika, Rika. Wonderful girl, but honestly, no-one is more perfect for the mole than her. I haven't discounted Ken either, but Rika, just my being her helpful self in the first game could have cost us the game, if it wasn't for the fact it already had gone. But she didn't know that we'd lose then did she?
(Yolei taking the quiz, Q9 'What team was the mole in the waterfall game?')
Yolei: Haley seemed to know exactly what to do in the smart car, didn't seem concerned when Shampoo got wet and was a poor swimmer. Duplica is a decent suspect as well, she failed to get anything in the river before I replaced her, but Haley is still my suspect.
(Finally, Naoko on the final question. 'Who is the Mole?' She presses…)
Naoko: Rika is my friend, but the fact that she's the most timid of us three was weird that she picked last. I don't want to think she's the mole…but she just might be…
* * * *
(Shot of the 15 as the night skies swim across the fire. They have their stuff with them, as one of them will be going tonight. They say a quick good luck to each other, Haitani in particular thinking he's going, as a lot of the girls comfort him (which perks him back up). They walk to the two logs by the fire where Yukino is waiting with her laptop)
Yukino: Well everyone, another two days gone, and £17,500 won in those days. Not bad. That's a grand total of £34,500, and one of you will be walking away with that, and hopefully more as the days go by.
(The group nod as Yukino continues)
Yukino: However, for one of you, the game now ends. All your answers for the latest quiz have been recorded in my laptop, and I will type in your names. The person with the lowest score will go red when I type the name in, and will have to leave. I trust you are all ready?
(The group nod again, although you can't hide how nervous some of these are…)
Yukino: O.K, last time, we went through the alphabet and nearly got to the end. We'll start where we left off, which was Touji if I recall.
(Touji gulps as Yukino types his name 'TOUJI' in.)
(Flashes green. Touji breathes a sigh of relief as Kensuke and Haitani both pat him on the back, a few of the CCS girls clapping as well)
Yukino: Yolei.
(The girl nods, breathes in as Cody and Ken hold her hands. 'YOLEI')
(Flashes green. Yolei breathes out and smiles.)
Yukino: O.K, we'll go a bit different now. Haitani.
(Haitani is very nervous, as Yukino types his name in, 'HAITANI')
(Flashes…green. Haitani breathes a silent prayer)
Yukino: So, it's not a Love Hina double, oh well. Next, Chiharu.
(The pig-tailed girl nods as Rika and Naoko hold her hands. 'CHIHARU')
(Flashes…red. Chiharu gasps in shock, as do her friends and many of her team mates. Yukino also looks sad.)
Yukino: Chiharu Mihara, we have to go.
Chiharu: (teary) Bye guys…
(She hugs Naoko and Rika, both shocked. She gets handshakes and hugs from most of the others as well but finally does leave to a sad Yukino as they head off…)
Touji: She was a bright spark. A real sweet girl who in my opinion certainly didn't deserve to go this early.
Rika: She is my friend…my close friend, and I was hoping that we'd get through this together…
Naoko: …and it wasn't meant to be. I hope Chiharu can keep her spirits up, she is such a genki girl, she deserves not to be sad.
Akari: She was a real sweetheart, and I really hope I can see her again soon, she was the life of the party at times.
(Shot of Chiharu, crying slightly, Yukino with an arm round her as they head to Skuld, who is also surprised that Chiharu is the next victim.)
Yukino: Aw, come on…(Yukino hugs Chiharu as she starts to calm down)
Chiharu: I'm…I'm gutted. I wanted to stay on a bit longer…I guess the mole got to me too soon…
Yukino: What will you miss the most?
Chiharu: I'll miss the fact that I won't be able to see my friends go as far as they can, and if one of them is the mole, I hope the other finds out before I did. (giggles) Sorry for being a crybaby…
Yukino: That's O.K. I guess it's time to go.
(Yukino and Chiharu share one more hug before Skuld teleports the moles second victim away into the sunset.)
* * * *
NEXT TIME;
With Chiharu gone, Rika finds comfort with Chiriko. Naoko seems alone, and decides she needs help now. And she finds herself in an alliance with…
Giselle isn't through yet, and she finds a way to get herself into the Chiriko alliance. But when a former rival is watching your every move, is it the best thing to do?
Two of the group go on a date in a challenge, but their every move is being watched by two contestants who relate everything to their peeps in a studio. Only one problem…if they are spotted, they lose the challenge…
Heading out to the Digital World, the three Digidestined come across their old friends…or do they? Finding the light has never become so difficult…
And who is the mole's third victim?
O.K, that's your second chapter!
The quiz won't be posted here now, to get it, you must be on the Animole ML, or you can e-mail me to be on it or to ask for the quiz.
So now, work on next chapter commences! Ja ne!
