The First Challenges
Back on the scene, Tommy and Zim were still trying to ram the other.
"You're going down, Earthling! Gaz is mine!" snapped Zim.
"She isn't a prize to be won, Zim." Tommy hears a noise and looks ahead and gasps. "Zim! Move!"
"I'm not falling for that one, human!" Zim said, rolling his eyes.
"Okay, your loss."
Tommy jumped up and Zim looked at him in puzzled. Now he sees the rock slide. He barely avoids it by using his spider-legs. Tommy, doing some training with Gaz, manages to make it through in one piece. Zim, on the other hand, got a few scratches. He growls angrily and runs in an attempt to catch up to Tommy again.
Back on the ship...
"Phew, they're safe." Gaz said in relief. "But I got to stop this. I got to convince Zim that I am not a prize to be won and I truly loved Tommy. Computer, is there a way to transported to the planet?""Unfortunately, the planet has been barred off by a barrier to keep other species from interfering in the intergalactic challenge." The computer explained. "So there is no way to transported there."
"Great!" shouted Gaz in disgust. "Okay, I can't give up hope yet. There's no puzzle I can't solved that will stop me. Now then, what would that legendary guy in those video games about that princess do in this situation?"
Gaz pauses to think, then smiles.
"Maybe...someone could do something. All it takes is one important call." Gaz said with a smirk.
Back on Earth....The guests, who have since recovered from the attack earlier, are getting troubled."Where is Tommy? I hope my bro is okay." Dil said troubled.
"He and Gaz better get back. I want to get some cake after the wedding is over." Angelica said, complaining.
"You and your cake." Susie said in disgust.
"Hey guys! Check this out!"
This is coming from Timmy Turner who points to a nearby TV (A TV in a church. Yeah, I know it's strange) that is broadcasting some sort of show. Upon looking closer, Kimi gasps.
"It's Tommy! And that Zim guy!" Kimi gasped in disbelief.
"Great. I supposed this wedding is nothing more than a reality show." Charlotte said in disgust.
"Charlotte, you know Tommy loves Gaz and he wanted his wedding to be real." Didi told Charlotte reasoningly.
"Then what's this here?" Charlotte challenged Didi.
As everyone continues watching, the broadcast turns to Meldar.
"Both the Earthling Tommy and the Irken Zim are neck to neck. For those who don't recall and you are fools to don't recall, the two are in a challenge, which prize is this girl." The guests gasped as the broadcast changes to an image of Gaz, then back to Meldar. "If Tommy wins, he will give up Gaz and no longer be a threat to Earth any more. But if Zim wins, Tommy must promise to give up Gaz and never ever come near her again! Frankly, I am excited about this challenge before it even started! Stay tuned as this deadly contest of speed, endurance, and intelligence continues!!!!!!" Meldar boomed.
"Oh great." Dib said in shocked.
Meanwhile...
A being that is dressed like a mysterious fighter whose identify is secret for now is using a communications thing to communicate with someone or something's. Eventually, the mysterious figure got through.
"Excuse me. I am interested in the challenge the Irken known as Zim made to the Earthling known as Tommy. I wish to be the third contestant, so in any case, I challenged them both." said the mysterious figure.
Back on Earth
"In
an amazing turn of events, a mysterious person wishes to enter. This
person has NOT given her name, but so long as it provides a better
show we'll allow her to enter!" Meldar cheered. "She said
she will give her terms to winning at the end."
"I
wonder who that is." Stu wondered.
Back on the
planet
The Mysterious figure caught up with Zim and
Tommy.
"Who the heck are you?" Zim
demanded.
"Someone who wants to beat both of you."
The figure said in a distorted voice.
"What? Is this your
idea of a joke earthling?" Zim yelled at Tommy.
"I
was about to ask you the same thing." Tommy glared.
"Catch
you two later!" The figure smiled as she dashed ahead.
Tommy
and Zim were jaw dropped. The figure ran really fast and used
branches from nearby trees to swing on to get ahead faster. Soon she
crossed the finish line.
"ALRIGHT!" She
cheered.
Tommy and Zim are jaw dropped.
"Who the
heck is that person?" Tommy wondered.
Suddenly all off
them flashed away and landed on a city like planet. Tommy looked
around and saw what look like egg yolks moving around in little
pods.
"Now then, for the next challenge! You are to find
these items!" Meldar said as a list of images appeared. "Whoever
gets all of them is the winner." Then the images separated into
little data pads into the hands of the contestants.
"Ready!
GO!" Meldar cheered.
Zim went one way, while Tommy and
the figure went the other way.
Tommy and the figure started to
run, but they soon realized they were about to run out of ground real
fast. Tommy gasped, but the figure jumped at him and helped him land
to the ground safely. However the figures hood/mask fell off. Tommy
gasped at who it was.
"Gaz!" yelled Tommy in disbelief at his fiancée who's supposed to be captured at the ship right now.
Gaz sighs as she gets up and pick up her hood/mask.
"I guess the Goth's outta the bag, huh?" asked Gaz.
"Most likely! Gaz, how and why?" asked Tommy in confusion.
"Tommy, I'd doing this to help you. I couldn't transport here thanks to the barrier keeping non-contestants out but if I registered myself as a contestant..." Gaz explained.
"I don't see why you risked your life to do this." Tommy said still in disbelief.
"Ssh! I'd explained later. For now, promise me you'd keep my identify safe. I don't want Zim to go crazier than usual." Gaz told Tommy. Tommy looks sad. "Don't worry, Tommy. Things will be okay, I hope."
Gaz puts her hood/mask back on and resume her scavenger hunt. Tommy sighs and went to continue his as well.
"I just hope Gaz
knows what she's doing." Tommy mumbles.
Gaz begins to
look for her item in a nearby building. It's a piece of an egg shell
of something called Poultra. She searches the building and avoids
being detected. When she founds the egg shells, she sees that they
were being guarded by two Yokians (the egg-like creatures in pods).
"Hmmm. Two alien guards. They don't look smart. Maybe..." Gaz observed.
Gaz grabs something from her pocket. It is some sort of silver ball. She throws it and it went by the Yokian guards. The silver ball flew down a nearby hallway and exploded further down it. The Yokian guards heard it, got suspicious, and went to investigate.
Gaz smirks and jumps to
go to the egg shells. She begins to pull at it. Being so strong and
best at fighting, she pulls off a piece of an egg shell. She then
pockets it and leaves before the Yokian guards gets back.
The
scavenger hunt was brutal, especially since what the fighters has to
do to get their items. Zim broke into a Yokian's home to get some
magazine that's on his list. Tommy has to switches sticks with spears
while a guard isn't looking. And Gaz, still in her disguise, just
pretends she is in a video game and does what she does best: get her
hands on some items and if anyone tries to stop her, she gets butt
and don't bother taking names.
Eventually a few
minutes has passed since the game has started. Each player has 1 item
has to find, and it's a difficult one: the crown of King Goobot
himself.
Zim, Tommy, and Gaz each chose a hiding place in hopes to
catch the Yokian king off guard. Soon King Goobot himself grumbles a
bit as he went outside. The players wait to make their move.
"Stupid life. It's boring!" mumbled King Goobot as he scratches himself. "Oh well, time for the usual put the crown outside so the crown cleaners will picked it up to be clean."
Surprisingly, King
Goobot left his crown in the crown hook so it will be cleaned and
went back inside. The players paused for a bit...then they make a run
for the crown.
Zim uses his spider-legs in hopes to get there
first, but Gaz has outmaneuvered the Irken and manages to trip. She
smirks as she reaches for the crown. But then, Tommy did something he
didn't wish to do: he tackled and takes her down.
'Sorry, Gaz, but I have no choice. Of course, if by any chance this could end in a sudden-death round, I hope you win.' Tommy thoughts as he grabs the crown. Soon Meldar appears.
"Congratulations! You won this challenge by getting all your items first!" Meldar declares. Cheering is heard off-screen.
"What the heck was that?" asked Tommy confused.
"Off-screen cheering. Don't bother asking. It doesn't make sense. Now then, onto what may or may not be the final challenge: the contest of survival!!!!" boomed Meldar.
Once again all of them flashed away and finds themselves in some sort of ridiculous looking obstacle course.
"And now, time for the test of Survival!!!! You must make it through the obstacle course in one piece!!!!" Meldar said.
"It looks like some sort of used props from a game show." Tommy observes.
"Oh yeah, well I Double Dare ya to prove that!" Gaz mocked, trying to keep her identify safe.
"Okay, remember,
if any of you died, you automatically loses. If the figure or Tommy
wins this, she or he will win the challenge! But if Zim wins this,
it's a three-way tie and we'd go to our sudden death round! Until
then, ready! Go!" Meldar boomed.
And the contest of Survival
wins, with lot at stake.
