September 23, 2012 (Footage recorded from September 22, 2012)
Teams
Power Poppers: Buford, Jett, Maverick, Sua, Lisa, and Lilith
Sleek Slushies: Axel, Caleb, Garry, Marty, Kylie, Meredith, Tamera, and Hilda
Fried Freaks: Boris, Fenton, Melissa, JJ, and Elsa
"Last time on Total Drama Carnival Calamity," Chris said, narrating the previous episode. "The teams got bumpy as they crashed and burned throughout the bumper car challenge, using the cannon attached to their vehicle or smashing bumper cars into each other. After Garry miraculously got the Sleek Slushies the win, the three teams went into their second challenge, a cook-off of carnival junk food. Tamera, wanting the spotlight decides to steal the Slushies' recipe to cause havoc. Luckily, the Power Poppers did worse in the challenge, so was not sent home."
"It was Gabriel after a tremendous tiebreaker between him and Jett," Chris chuckles. "Tie-breakers should happen more often if they are this awesome." The flashbacks end and the host is shown standing next to a carousel during the daytime. "Who will be eliminated in this episode? Find out now on Total... Drama... Carnival Calamity!"
Before the episode starts, Chris looks at a cameraman off-screen. "Make sure to tell the editors to put this at the beginning of the episode, since everything exciting happened last night."
Speaking of night, it is currently night right now. The lame-o-sine takes off with the previously eliminated camper. As the vehicle flees, a camera zooms out to see a small hill near the carnival. There, the Ringleader and Lily are standing, watching all the spectacular lights from their destination. The latter has the laser gun she took before her elimination, now bulkier than before. Both see two cops walking around to guard the entrance.
"Looks like they got protection since I left," Lily told the Ringleader.
"Little protection, guess they don't have a big budget," The Ringleader spoke through his green masquerade plague mask. He walks down the hill. Lily follows him while skipping.
"How are we going to do this? Boss always makes sure we don't get in trouble with the cops," Lily asked.
Ringleader stops, accidentally letting Lily trip since she thought he would continue.
"Don't worry child. You're about to witness the birth of beautiful creatures," Ringleader answered, holding a grenade in his right hand. He uses his left hand to pull the pin off the grenade. Then he throws his weapon at the cops.
The two officers notice it coming towards them.
"Move!" One of the cops yelled. They try to get away from the blast zone, but the grenade immediately explodes before hitting the ground. A green smoke cloud escapes from the grenade.
Both officers are engulfed in the cloud and things start happening to their bodies. A crab hand spreads from both cop's left arms. This prompts them to scream in pain and horror.
Lily watches them mutate. She feels sick watching the display, she wants to vomit but she cannot make herself seem weak. Ringleader on the other hand is delighted, smiling at the mutations. Both cop's feet turn into chicken legs, their left arm turns into a tentacle, and their heads form into that of a fish. Since they have no water to keep themselves breathing, they pass out on the ground. Most likely out of commission.
"Shame, I was hoping they could live, but these grenades always give different results," Ringleader spoke tranquility. He walks towards the entrance to the carnival.
Lily does her best not to tremble as she continues to stay by his side. What is this madness? Okay sure, her organization wants to take over the world, but allying with this maniac?
"Do you have more of those grenades?" Lily wondered.
"Sadly no, which is why I need to get to my lab," Ringleader answered her. He takes a test tube out that is sealed from his black velvet jack. The tube contains what appears to be toxic waste, but it is not melting the tube at all. "Chris McLean got those pesky teens to almost wipe out all the toxic waste from Boney Island. I was only able to make a few grenades with the few resources I had. Now there we're here, I can copy my own waste."
Lily silently sighs. She did not know what to feel if he was planning to mutate the contestants. "How are we going to get inside without triggering potential alarms?"
"You brought the ladybug in the jar I collected?" Ringleader reminded.
Lily puts her laser gun down to grab the jar in one of her black trench coat pockets. Ringleader unseals his tube with toxic waste. The secretary then opens the jar so the ladybug can get hit with a drop of waste on it. Immediately the ladybug gets big as the size of an adult human size head. Electricity sparks from its wings.
Ringleader grabs the ladybug with his two hands and whispers to it. The mutated ladybug then flies over the doors of the carnival to get inside.
"Give the creature its time," The carnival freak told Lily. "Nathan told me he gave you a task of some sort?"
"If you mean Boss, then yes. You will be on your own for a while," Lily told him.
"Very well," Ringleader stated. He seals his tube and puts it back inside his jacket. Then he takes a blue grenade. "I'll give these teens something to fear when I come across them. After all, the show must go on."
Lily makes sure to stay behind Ringleader, not wanting him to see her with the conflicting concern expression on her face.
The electric ladybug flies around to find the electric panel that lights up the carnival. It notices the security room that the Ringleader told it to find. It knocks on the door politely. Inside, Noah is sleeping while sitting on a rocking chair. He is not looking at the TV screens at all. The ones that are used for watching all over the carnival. More knocks are heard, waking him up.
"Ugh, I thought I told you Duncan that I am going to be on cameras tonight," Noah said groggily. He gets up from the chair and proceeds to open the door. "You can be a…"
The bookworm gets zapped by the mutant ladybug off-screen. Then it shows him on the ground passed out as the bug flies inside to gaze at the electric panels and load centers. It creates a big discharge that overloads everything in its vicinity, creating a blackout throughout the whole carnival. The ladybug stops flying and closes its eyes, having used too much power.
Ringleader and Lily open the entrance doors to head inside. Lily is about to turn on her laser gun to use it as a flashlight until the lights from the carnival come back. Well, not entirely. Some places are still left in the dark while others have lights that give off an orange color that illuminates a small area.
"Hmm, they must have installed a generator somewhere in case of a blackout," Ringleader said. "No matter, there's still enough darkness for me to easily head to my lab." He looks at Lily who is no longer looking scared. "Do what your boss commanded you to do. Meet me at my lab when you're done."
"Yes," Lily said and nodded. The two go their separate ways.
The Bargaby Bludidle Hut has no lights on. That does not stop Lucy from turning on a flashlight to see her surroundings. "A blackout? That doesn't raise trouble at all," She said sarcastically, then walks out of the hut.
Looking around, the DIT notices a shadowy figure pass by. The person drops a green masquerade plague mask on the ground. Lucy gasps, knowing exactly who is lurking around the place. She turns off her flashlight and follows the person, using the lights that are powered by the generator to keep track.
Elsewhere, inside the gold tent are the Fried Freaks. They are asleep in their sleeping bags. Their symbol appears on screen as a camera takes a closer look to identify that Elsa and Boris are not with their team.
"Attention Freaks," Chris said off-screen through a megaphone. "You are required to wake up now immediately."
Begrudgingly, the three Freaks wake up and head outside the gold tent in their pajamas. Chris and Duncan are waiting for them. The host is holding a flashlight and the delinquent a brown bag filled with something.
"Where's Elsa and Boris?" Chris asked the Fried Freaks.
"I can think of a few places," Duncan with a smirk.
Melissa rubs her eyes. "They probably are at the arcade center playing videogames."
"They're going to be stuck there for a while then," Duncan told the three.
This instantly wakes up the sleepy teens.
"Stuck?" Fenton pondered. "What's going on?"
JJ does some sign language gestures to the host and delinquent.
"Chris will explain eventually," Duncan answered the clown without her makeup.
"You know sign language?" Melissa asked him.
Duncan shrugs. "Eh, the prison I went to had classes. Thought it would be funny to learn since I can insult people without them knowing."
Chef and Scarlett arrive at the group with the Sleek Slushies and Power Poppers holding flashlights. Both teams are in their pajamas and their symbols appear on the screen.
From the Power Poppers, Lilith is wearing a long dark purple nightgown. Jett is only wearing grey sweatpants on him. Buford is shirtless as well while wearing black shorts. Sua has on a baby blue sweater, yellow pajama pants, and a pink sleeping mask over her eyes. Lisa is in her green sleeping gown. Lastly, Maverick is wearing a ripped blue tank top with black casual basketball shorts.
From the Sleek Slushies, Tamera is wearing black athletic shorts and a red tank top. Garry is wearing his normal clothes without his shoes on. Marty has a black hoodie and white shorts. Meredith has a white plain shirt and black pants on her. Kylie on the other hand is wearing a red crop top and grey shorts. Her hair is in two fishtail braids. Hilda has on a plain blue shirt and blue pants. Lastly is Axel, wearing red boxers and a white tank top. Caleb has already shown his pajamas on screen.
"You better give us a good explanation as to why we need to be up at this time at night," Tamera demanded the host, needing to know.
"Agreed," Sua said, rubbing her left eye. "I need my rest."
"If your sleepy eyes couldn't tell, the carnival is in a blackout," Chris told the three teams. "The generator is on to provide some areas with light, but I don't know how much gasoline the thing has left in its tank."
"Did something malfunction?" Fenton asked the host.
"We don't know kid," Chef answered for Chris.
"What we do know is that this can be used for a night challenge," Chris said joyfully. "I was planning on one for later since we're still in September, but this episode will probably be released next month."
"Can't you just have the interns repair whatever broke down?" Kylie spoke coldly, not happy having to do a challenge so fast already.
"Nope," Chris answered her. "Duncan and Chef will be heading out to buy some gasoline while Scarlett and I will make sure to keep the generator running as much as possible. In the meantime, each contestant will have a flashlight and walkie-talkie with them for safety measures."
Duncan puts the brown bag he is carrying on the ground. He opens it to reveal a bunch of flashlights and walkie-talkies inside. The contestants walk to the bag to get their items.
"The goal of this challenge is to find the security room. The room has breakers, circuits, electric panels, load centers, etc. The first team to turn back all the lights of the carnival wins and gets to stay at the gold tent."
"How is that fair? We barely got to stay in it. Now we have to compete for it again in less than twenty-four hours?" Melissa questioned, dumbfounded by the rules.
Chris' response is with a noncaring shrug. "Just means you and your team of three have to try harder."
"Can you give us each a map?" Axel asked.
"Nope never told the interns to make one. Instead, all of you will have to use the directory boards to find the security room," Chris explained.
"Can't you just tell us exactly where it is?" Lisa pointed out.
"And make the challenge less difficult? Nah," Chris answered the poet. "Besides, since all the rides are down there will be no obstacles in anyone's way. Have fun!"
With the explanation over, Chris, Chef, and the interns leave the scene.
Confessional – Melissa – Fried Freaks
"Ugh, seriously? A night challenge? Did Chris tell an intern to shut down the power just to have this made? He must dislike my team if he is willing to have me… I mean us, not be at the winner's tent for one whole night."
Confessional – Lilith – Power Poppers
"Wow, a night challenge. This is so awesome. I always love the spooky atmosphere the night gives. Especially with the carnival only having a few lights brightening up the place. Feels like I'm in a horror movie."
Confessional – Axel – Sleek Slushies
"I'm beginning to believe Chris is not responsible for the blackout. He seemed surprised that the carnival shut down. There's something more to this than a simple challenge, isn't there?"
End Confessionals
Inside the arcade center, there are a bunch of various color glow sticks on the floor, providing some light source for Elsa and Boris. Both are wearing their everyday outfit. The gamer girl tries pushing the doors of the center to get out.
"You've been doing that for more than a minute now," Boris told Elsa deadpanned. "It was funny at first, but now is becoming pathetic to watch."
Elsa stops to catch some breath. "Who even decided to make this an electrical door? Thought this carnival was old."
"Renovations," Boris answered. "Pathetic renovations, but it is something."
"What do you think caused the blackout?" Elsa asked another question.
"How should I know? I never experienced a blackout before," Boris admitted. He goes to sit on one of the arcade car racing machine seats.
Elsa picks up some glow sticks then joins him, sitting in another racing seat. "You must have experienced one. You're calm about the situation we are in."
"It's because I'm not going to sweat and panic over something feasibly solvable you ignorant," Boris spoke rudely.
"Or is it because I'm here with you?" Elsa teased.
"Ugh, don't be ridiculous," Boris responded with disgust. "All an intern has to do is turn back the power on if the fuse stopped."
"What do we do while we wait?" Elsa pondered. "All arcade machines don't work. The only prizes we found lying around are these glow sticks."
"Sleep, that's all we can do," Boris said. "Find me something soft to put my head and body on top. I refuse to sleep on the floor."
Elsa smirks and proceeds to lay down on the floor. "Good luck with that."
Boris gasps. "What are you doing?"
"What does it look like?" Elsa said rudely with a smile. "I'm going to sleep on the floor."
"And get all that dirt and dust in your ears?" Boris questioned.
Elsa sighs and gets up, knowing the rich kid is correct. "Fine, we look for something to put at least our heads on here. But you're helping me."
"I will spot something acceptable. I won't be carrying anything," Boris declared.
Confessional – Elsa – Fried Freaks
"I don't mind sleeping with Boris alone inside the arcade center. I'm used to his complaining during the nights. Is just, a bit concerning there is a blackout out of nowhere. I don't think Chris will shut down the power just for a challenge. After all, he probably has a jacuzzi hidden somewhere to keep him cozy and relaxed."
End Confessionals
Around the roller coaster ride, Lucy is carefully following the shadowy figure. She takes out a laser pistol from her right jean pocket. Her target keeps running but she can get a clear shot at the person's right calf, stopping the intruder from walking.
"Stand down," Lucy commanded. The shadowy figure turns around on the ground to look up at the DIT. Said DIT turns on her flashlight with her left hand.
It is Lily the culprit.
"Lily? You're not supposed to be here," Lucy gasped. Wait, of course, she is here. Which means the Ringleader must be around.
"Sorry, but I have to follow my Boss' orders," Lily spoke. She aims her bulky laser gun at the sign entrance to the roller coaster and fires it.
The sign comes tumbling down at the two girls. Lucy jumps away while Lily rolls away. The sign crashes to the ground. The intern runs towards the other side to see the secretary gone.
Lucy groans to herself. She cannot believe she let an interloper get away from her. She was so surprised that it was not the Ringleader that she did not kick Lily's laser gun out of the way.
"I am not making that same mistake again," Lucy told herself.
Elsewhere around the carnival, the Power Poppers are searching for the security room. Their symbol appears on the screen. Maverick, Buford, and Lisa are in front while Jett, Sua, and Lilith are behind them.
"Isn't it cool we are doing a night challenge?" Lilith asked her teammates. "Just look at all the stuffed animals on the booths. Watching us every step we take."
The team looks around and notices a disturbing amount of stuffed toys in the booths.
"I have never seen so many stuff toys around here before," Jett admitted.
Sua rubs her arms, getting nervous. "Can we find the place to turn on the electricity thing already?"
"There's nothing to be afraid about Sua," Lilith told her happily. "These toys are harmless. Besides the fact they stare into our souls wanting to know all our thoughts so they can…"
"And now you no longer have permission to talk," Buford told the goth, still looking forward. "Stop trying to scare our teammates."
"Scare?" Lilith said confused. "I was…"
"Look," Lisa pointed at a directory board.
The three in front of the team use their flashlights to illuminate the directory board they just found. Left goes towards the bumper cars ride, up the theater section, and right the water slides section.
"It is not at the bumper cars section," Lilith answered.
"Wow, wonder what gave it away? Is not like we had a challenge there earlier today," Lisa said sarcastically.
"Come on Lisa don't be rude," Maverick told the poet. He continues to gaze at the directory board. "Let's go to the theater. Having a security room near a water attraction might not be the best idea."
"I wonder if someone is going to put on a play for us," Lilith said ecstatically.
"Gosh, I hope not. Even if it's part of the challenge," Buford honestly said.
Confessional – Maverick – Power Poppers
"I have dealt with spooky atmospheres thanks to my pals, but this is a whole different level. Usually, the team and I will put haunting music to settle the mood, but here? There is total silence. Only sounds are footsteps and small animals."
End Confessional
The Power Poppers arrive at the amphitheater, which looks identical to the one used in Total Drama Island. They split up to see if any small buildings could be the security room. Sua finds one a building. She tries to open the door, but it is locked.
"I found a place," The idol exclaimed. The other Poppers rush to her, accidentally trampling her onto the ground. "Is just a scratch," She said as she lifts her left arm all twisted.
"Looks like we need to find a key," Lilith said.
"Geez, you think?" Lisa once again spoke sarcastically. The goth narrows her eyes at the poet.
"The key should be around the amphitheater," Maverick theorized.
"Greetings fellow teens," A voice called out to the Power Poppers. It is the Ringleader, standing on the stage of the amphitheater. "Looking for something?"
No longer wearing his mask, the Ringleader's face is shown. Dark green eyes, a bit of gray hair that hides his black hair, and a scar on his right cheek.
The Power Poppers except Sua walk towards him. They stop once there are a yard away from the stage.
"I'm guessing you are part of the challenge?" Buford asked.
"Sure, let's go with that," Ringleader answered. "Tell me, what is that you seek?"
Something does not settle right for the Poppers. Maybe it is the atmosphere?
"We seek a key to open that place over there," Maverick pointed at the small building.
"Ah, there isn't a show without a performance isn't there," Ringleader spoke. "I would need three volunteers. If any of them impress me with their juggling, the key shall be yours."
It feels weird to the team that Chris will hire someone just for a challenge. Normally it will be a cameo, an intern, Chef, or himself. Still, they need that key.
"Me, me, I want to volunteer," Lilith rapidly said. She gets on stage.
"I want to perform," Sua said as she gets on stage, seemingly alright.
Ringleader sees that nobody else wants to get on stage. "One more for the poor."
Maverick decides to enter the stage, but Jett stops him by placing his hand on the promoter's shoulder.
"This dude is shifty. And I know when people are shifty," Jett warned his leader.
"Trust issues again?" Maverick asked as politely as he could.
"More like gut instinct," Jett answered.
"I don't like the guy either," Buford sided with the runaway. "This is starting to feel like a horror film. We all know what happens to people like me in them."
"Well, I'm certainly not doing it," Lisa told the boys.
Ringleader notices that the remaining are not budging. "You there," He points at Jett. "Come up. Chris told me I need three to juggle."
Confessional – Jett – Power Poppers
"Ugh, what Gabriel told me is still stuck to my head. But how can I trust that guy? Either the dude is really into his role, or he wants to hurt us badly. Then again, that is what Chris enjoys."
End Confessional
Jett, Sua, and Lilith are holding three blue eggs. The idol and goth start juggling them.
"Come on Jett, you need to juggle," Maverick told.
Jett stares at the blue eggs for a few seconds until dropping them to the floor. "I can't do this!" He glares at the Ringleader. "Who are you? What do you want?"
Ringleader takes a few steps back. "I wish one day someone can ask me, why?" He takes out a detonator and presses the button.
The blue eggs create a small explosion with no damage whatsoever. However, the broken eggs unleash a blue cloud, engulfing Jett, Sua, and Lilith. Lisa tries to help her crush, but Maverick stops her.
"Wait until the smoke clears," Maverick told her.
"Phew, glad that's not me in there," Buford said happily. He notices the glares he is getting. "Um, too soon?"
Maverick notices the Ringleader leaving the stage. His face gives out his frustration.
Confessional – Maverick – Power Poppers
"Dang it, I should have listened to Jett's warning. Is this someone who snuck into the carnival or Chris hired this person? Because I'm getting all kinds of flags."
End Confessional
Elsa and Boris are still searching for something to use as a pillow inside the arcade center.
"This is taking forever," Boris complained.
"I agree," Elsa said. "There has to be some room here that stashes stuff." Realization hits her. "Hey, where did you get those glowsticks?"
"From that room over there," Boris answered and points to the direction he is referring to.
The room's door is open, and the gamer girl can see various toy prizes in there.
"You couldn't have told me this sooner?" Elsa asked with an emotionless face.
"You never asked before," Boris plainly said. "Besides, those toys are most likely filthy and old judging by the dust in there."
"Doesn't matter, let's just find something to sleep on," Elsa told the rich kid. She enters the room. She turns to see her teammate not in with her. "Hello?"
"Well don't you stand there, you are not going to find what we need by doing that," Boris said, unaware that she wants him to go inside the toy room.
Elsa sighs and proceeds to look.
Back with the Power Poppers, the blue cloud clears up, but the three that were caught in it still see it.
Jett observes his surroundings, no longer at the carnival, but in a casino. He sees two people playing poker at a table.
One seems to be a man in his forties, wearing a light blue button shirt, brown pants, and a beer in his hands. His face is not shown. The other person looks to be like a twelve-year-old kid wearing a long sleeve white shirt under a dark green t-shirt. He also wears a white hat, dark green pants, and white sneakers.
"Come on Charlie, one more at it," The kid said as he takes a pile of money that is on the grown adult's side.
Charlie burps, seeming to be drunk as more beers are shown on the floor. "Sure thing pal, just let me grab my son. I'm sure he will help me get my money back." The man and kid stare at Jett.
"No," Jett spoke softly, walking backward. "No, I left you, this can't be real."
He runs away from the table to exit out the casino. Only for a giant river of beer to push him back into the place. The casino transforms into a wooden house. Jett sees a door being banged. He wants to escape, but he is paralyzed with fear.
Charlie, the man from the casino bursts through the door. "I wasted all my money again! Losing to that kid! If you and your mother can just give me more, I could have beaten his ass."
"You were never going to win," Jett exclaimed, still on the floor. "You get yourself drunk and never think through."
Charlie throws a wooden chair at Jett's face. The teen lowers his upper body to dodge it.
"I get drunk because I have to put up with you and your mother. Do you want to get whipped again? Is that what you want!? Because that's I want," Charlie confessed, boiling his hands into fists.
Jett begins to shed tears from his eyes. Rage consuming his mind. He stands up. "Why can't I just put you back in the vault in my mind?" He charges at Charlie.
However, this is what the runaway is seeing. In reality, Jett charges at a trash can.
"What is going on with him?" Lisa wondered with concern.
Maverick and Buford observe Sua and Lilith also acting strange.
Lilith is currently seeing everything pink around her. A giant pink bunny hops towards her.
"Hi there, can we be friends?" The bunny said, having a squeaky voice.
"No," Lilith burst out, disgusted that the color pink is everywhere. "Where am I?"
Another pink bunny shows. "Why, you're in Bunny Land."
A rainbow appears out of nowhere. A leprechaun slides down, holding a pot of flowers. "Flowers for my lady?"
"No!" Lilith shouted. She shoves the pot away from her and begins running away.
She is now running through a field of flowers. She stops to look at herself in a mirror. The drummer is now wearing a pretty pink tutu and leotard.
"Get this off me," She exclaimed, getting anxious. She sits down in the garden and tries pulling out her pink ballerina shoes. "Get this off me!"
A giant pink teddy bear appears behind Lilith.
"Time for a bear hug," The bear said and hugs Lilith tightly. "Get ready for the song."
Lilith's eyes widen in fear. "No, anything about that."
A bunch of round stuff monkeys shows up. Each of them has different colors such as yellow, red, orange, green, and blue. They start to sing in harmony and dance.
"Rainbow monkeys, rainbow monkeys, oh, so very round and super chunky," Sang the stuff monkeys.
"Get me out of this nightmare!" Lilith exclaimed.
In real life, Lilith is sitting on the floor and rocking herself back and forth uneasily.
"I'm at a lost here," Buford told Lisa and Maverick. They watch Jett charge at another trash can while Sua is tearing the fabrics of the amphitheater.
"This so much fun," Sua exclaimed, then cackles uncontrollably. She unintentionally wraps herself in the fabric.
Maverick ponders on what to do. All three have been talking about stuff that he nor Lisa and Buford can see. "I got it!" Maverick declared. "The clouds have given them hallucinations."
"I thought they were just drunk," Buford admitted.
"Nope, because each of them is being scared of something," Maverick told the tall dude. "Whatever that cloud had, it is making them see things. Now we just need to figure out how to snap them out of it."
"You sure we can't wait a bit longer? This is entertaining right here," Buford confessed.
"We're in a challenge, remember?" Lisa retold.
Confessional – Lisa – Power Poppers
"I agree with Buford that what's going on is entertaining if Jett wasn't part of the act."
End Confessional
Lisa uses her beret to put it over Jett's face so he could not see anything.
"What's going on? Why is everything suddenly green?" Jett said, trying to get the beret off him.
Lisa makes sure to keep the beret over his eyes. "It's not real Jett. You're hallucinating."
"Mother, is that you?" Jett wondered.
"Um, yes," Lisa said unsure. "It's your mother and she wants you to close your eyes. What are you seeing isn't real."
Jett takes some deep breaths before closing his eyes.
Maverick and Buford notice Lilith still sitting uncontrollably while Sua lands in a bird fountain.
"Ow, my head," Sua said, putting her right hand on her forehead. "What just happened?"
"Water," Maverick and Buford said at the same time and give a high five.
"You go carry Lilith over to the fountain and splash water on her," Maverick instructed.
Buford mumbles some words but decides to go and help out the goth.
"Lisa, bring Jett to that bird fountain over there," Maverick told the poet. "We found out how to stop them from hallucinating." He decides to use the walkie-talkie he took earlier. "Better warn the others about this."
A new scene emerges as the Sleek Slushies are walking around the carnival, near a carousel. Their symbol appears on the screen.
"Any signs of what could be a place that can be a security room?" Axel asked his teammates.
"Nope," Garry replied, looking around.
"Nothing over here," Kylie said.
Marty, Hilda, Tamera, and Caleb notice the carousel ride starting up. The horses slowly spin around.
"Aren't the rides not supposed to be working?" Hilda asked her teammates.
"Maybe a team already turned on the power?" Marty theorized as Axel, Garry, and Kylie are shown still searching in the background.
"Of course not you idiot," Tamera crudely told the photographer. "All the lights will be on right now."
"You talk a lot a crap for someone who is the most likely to go home if we lose," Marty retorted, making the vixen shut up.
As the horses of the carousel spin around, Caleb notices the Ringleader sitting on one of them.
"Hello there children," Ringleader greeted with a warm welcome to not get suspicious. "You seem lost. Need a map?"
"Who are you?" Caleb asked as Kylie, Axel, and Garry reunited with their team.
"I'm just a man that Chris hired throughout tonight's challenge," Ringleader guaranteed. Since the carousel is still spinning, he keeps spinning around on the horse he is sitting on. "Those who make it this far get a piece of a map."
Axel, blinded by his ambition of winning, trusts the person immediately. "At least we get something for making it this far."
Meredith arrives at the scene and stands next to Marty. "What's happening?" She asked joyfully to the photographer. When she looks to the front she gasps, witnessing the Ringleader. "Marty, flash him."
"Huh?" Marty wondered confused.
"Just do it," Meredith whispered. "That person experiments on children."
Marty's confusion grows even more, but for what the historian said, he is not going to have Axel get taken. He runs, passing the gentleman, and uses his camera to flash the Ringleader's eyes.
"Gah!" Ringleader exclaimed. He uses his hands to cover his eyes. "Should have kept my mask on."
"Everyone, follow me," Meredith exclaimed as she heads to the Penguin Sanctuary, passing the directory board on where she needed to go.
"What was that all about?" Axel asked the historian, trying to control his anger.
"That's Ringleader, he experiments on children. I read about him," Meredith answered quickly as the Sleek Slushies continue to run.
Not wanting to lose a team member, the rest tag along. Ringleader groans as he takes out a blue egg. He cannot see, but he can hear the steps of the Sleek Slushies. He throws the egg in the team's way and detonates it. The egg bursts in the air and the blue cloud catches Axel and Meredith. The six other team members stop in their tracks to see theme coughing.
"I'll stay here," Hilda said to her teammates. "You four make sure to find the security room."
Kylie, Marty, Caleb, and Tamera head to the Penguin Sanctuary that the historian was running to. Garry stays behind to assist Hilda.
"We need to warn the others about that dude," Caleb said and then takes out the walkie-talkie he took earlier.
Confessional – Caleb – Sleek Slushies
"I don't care about the others the slightest. They all are beneath me, but I don't want them to get hurt by someone that is hijacking the challenge."
End Confessional
Hilda and Garry wait for the clouds to disappear.
"Are you two alright?" Hilda asked the gentleman and historian worryingly.
Axel looks at Hilda but does not see her there. Instead, he sees a handicapped boy sitting in a wheelchair.
"Charlie?" Axel wondered.
"Where's the money?" Charlie asked with a pout. "Have you forgotten about me already?"
"I'll never forget the time we have spent together," Axel proclaimed proudly.
"Then…" Charlie's head grows huge all of sudden. "Where's the money?" Gold coins pop out from the wheelchair boy's mouth.
Axel blocks the coins with his hands. A giant gold coin then comes out of Charlie's mouth. The gentleman tries to get away from the coin but gets squished.
Axel stands up, feeling alright. "I'm not dead?"
Charlie, with his huge head, floats up into the sky. He laughs maniacally as his head spins three hundred sixty degrees like an owl.
"You're not Charlie," Axel declared.
"You're right I'm not," The huge head boy declared. "But I am your worst nightmare."
The hands of zombies pop up from the ground, dragging Axel down. "Get off of me!" Axel said struggling.
In Meredith's hallucination, she is in a bedroom, sitting on a bed. Everything in the room is painted in different shades of blue.
"This isn't the carnival," Meredith said. She looks around and notices a closet slowly opening. "Who's there?"
A clown pops out of the closet wearing a similar get-up to JJ. It is not JJ because it is male and way creepier since his face has lines of what could be identified as blood or ketchup.
"Who's ready to laugh?" The clown asked and chuckles darkly.
Meredith screams and tries to exit the room by opening the door. She opens it and more clowns appear, giggling and walking in a goofy fashion.
"Time for some make-up," One of the clowns spoke.
Meredith hides under the bed, but two clowns pull her out by the legs. Then they all jump on top of her. The historian lifts all of them and throws the clowns high up until they break the roof and head to the sun.
Smirking triumphantly, she heads to the door and enters a hallway. In the hallway, there is a mirror. Curiously, she gets closer to it and gasps when seeing her reflection. There she is, wearing a clown costume with make-up included. Laughs start to pour countlessly into her mind, making her eyes twitch and give a big smile. She cannot help but laugh herself. It almost feels good.
She snaps back into reality once Garry throws water at her coming from a bucket he happened to find.
"Sorry Meredith, but your laughing was freaking me out there," Garry apologized.
Meredith immediately hugs the uninteresting dude tightly. "Thank you so much Barry."
"It's… eh, whatever," Garry said, happy to be receiving a hug.
Hilda takes the bucket from Garry and throws water at Axel.
"Gah!" Axel shouted. "That was too cold." He turns around to see his teammates. "Ah, I appreciate the gratitude."
"What did you see?" Hilda asked the gentleman.
Axel looks to the ground. "I'll tell you later. Right now, we need to focus on winning this challenge."

"Felt pretty good being hugged by a girl. The last time that happened was in first grade when a chick hugged me to steal my chips and sauce. After that, all of them pretend I don't exist."

Chris McLean and Scarlett are each sitting on a beach chair, next to a large red generator that is creating a bit of noise. The brainiac looks at the fuel indicator, noticing that is almost running on empty.
"Chris, there are approximately about ten minutes before the generator runs out of gasoline power," Scarlett stated to the host.
"Do you really know how much gasoline is left or you're trying to sound smart?" Chris asked casually, not caring if the brainiac answers him.
"I am simply giving an estimation based on the watts used by the generator's gasoline per second," Scarlett said, annoyed that she had to explain further.
"Relax, Duncan and Chef will arrive before it stops," Chris assured.
"I doubt that," Scarlett stated.
Chris sighs happily and closes his eyes. He is blocking all noise to get some good rest. Scarlett pokes at the metal collar in her neck, getting a small electric shock from doing that.
"You're lucky I can't act my revenge with this on me," Scarlett whispered.
She hears rustling coming from a bush nearby and decides to investigate.
A new scene commences with Melissa, Fenton, and JJ at a pumpkin patch. Their symbol appears on screen as they walk around.
"Whose bright idea was it for us to come over here?" Melissa asked her two teammates. "There is nothing besides pumpkins all over here."
The trio stops walking to talk. Fenton faces the athletic nerd. "Um, coming here was your idea," Fenton pointed out.
Melissa blushes out of embarrassment. "Oh, right. Guess it was."
Static comes from the walkie-talkies they have in their pockets.
"Attention everyone," Caleb's voice is heard by the walkie-talkies. "Be on the lookout for a man in some type of ringleader suit. Chris did not hire this person so be careful and do not engage," The handsome genius stops talking and the static from the walkie-talkies stop.
"Remember the water," Maverick said through the walkie-talkie as a reminder.
JJ takes out a jack in the box from her wig and slowly begins winding it.
"Looks like we got another situation in our hands," Melissa told Fenton and JJ.
Suddenly, some pumpkins begin to rumble from the patch. They develop eyes and a mouth, glowing a bright yellow.
"It's the great pumpkin Fenton," Melissa exclaimed, trying to make a reference.
"I don't think they are friendly," Fenton admitted, getting scared.
The pumpkins with faces grow four stump legs to run at the trio. Melissa notices a scarecrow attached to a piece of wood close by. She moves the wood around to take it out of the ground and use it as a bat, scarecrow included.
"Get behind me," Melissa told her two teammates. She busts the mutated pumpkins whenever they get close.
Fenton and JJ can hear footsteps closing in and decide to look behind them. It is the Ringleader, holding a blue egg in his right hand. He continues to approach the two.
"As much as I would love to continue the show, it's time for the climax," Ringleader spoke to himself with a disturbing grin.
JJ does not waste any time. She aims the jack in the box at Ringleader, winding faster and faster.
BLAM!
A boxing glove attached to a spring reveals itself from inside the jack in the box, hitting Ringleader right in his left cheek. Surprised by the sudden attack, Ringleader falls to the ground and lays there.
"Nice shot JJ," Fenton complimented the clown. JJ gives a thumbs up.
Melissa finishes defeating the last mutant pumpkin and turns around. She has pumpkin liquid on her face.
"That was fun," Melissa admitted with a chuckle.
"You two are truly awesome," Fenton said sincerely. "Taking care of mutant pumpkins and that dude wearing a costume."
"Costume?" Melissa pondered perplexed.
Ringleader gets up and quickly throws his blue egg at the three. Fenton notices this first. With all his might, he pushes Melissa and JJ out of the way.
"Fenton!" Melissa exclaimed in dismay.
Ringleader detonates the egg so it can create a blue cloud on the competent sidekick.
"That should distract them long enough," Ringleader spoke before fleeing.
Back at the Arcade Center, Elsa finds two giant teddy bears from the room with a whole bunch of toys.
"Which one do you want? Polar bear or grizzly bear?" Elsa asked Boris, having trouble carrying the stuffed animals.
"Whichever is comfier," Boris stated.
"Both of them have the same fabric," Elsa said emotionless.
"Which one of them is less dusty to not have me sneezing constantly?" Boris asked, ignoring the gamer's comment. "Better yet, give me both so my legs can be comfortable as well."
Elsa is starting to get fed up with him. They are stuck for the night together, staying up late, and have not gotten sleep. She drops both giant teddy bears on the ground. Then she opens her mouth to rip the brown teddy's head off. Cotton spews out from the inside. She grabs the bear's head with her hands so she can take it out of her mouth.
"There, now you can put your feet up your highness," Elsa smirked.
Boris begrudgingly takes the bear's head and the bear's body. "Fine, you win."

"As much as I dislike her treatment towards me, she's the only one I will ever tolerate being trapped inside together," Boris admitted with his arms crossed. "Okay, second person. Fenton will do whatever I say without questioning."

Fenton watches Melissa and JJ slowly disappear from his vision. He is now looking at his three-floor building school.
"I have a bad feeling about this," Fenton told himself. He enters the school and sees no one around. He continues to walk around until he hears noises coming from a classroom. He searches for the noise and sees the words 'Science Class' next to the classroom's door.
"Oh no," Fenton said quietly, his eyes shrinking. He is starting to realize what this is about. He opens the science class door and gazes upon a teenage girl wearing her black boots, long red pants, a black skirt, and a red shirt.
She is currently mixing up chemicals with two flask tubes. Her innocent smile turns into a devilish grin. "You will never be able to lead after what you did." She purposely drops the two flasks with chemicals onto the ground. "Oops."
All of a sudden, the school starts to shake. Fenton exits the science class and quickly heads back to the entrance of the building. The walls crumble down as well as the floors. The competent sidekick sees the door, but a red tentacle grabs him by his stomach. He looks behind him to see the girl he met now having squid hands and six squid legs.
"Come on Fenton, stay with me. And be the failure you were meant to be for the rest of your life," The girl exclaimed excitedly.
Fenton screams as more tentacles wrap over him.
Melissa and JJ watch him being covered in vines.
"Is he… letting himself get wrapped in vines?" Melissa asked the silent clown.
JJ nods, still looking at how ridiculous her teammate is acting.
"You still have your spray bottle in your wig?" Melissa asked another question.
JJ answers her by taking out a spray bottle filled with water out of her wig. She then sprays Fenton.
The competent boy closes his eyes, trying to stop the water from getting into his face. "No, stop. I know the water slide was a terrible idea."
JJ stops spraying once Melissa walks up to the kid. The athletic nerd bends down on her knees and touches Fenton's arms.
"Fenton is okay, I'm here," Melissa told her teammate. "Open your eyes."
Fenton opens his eyes and chuckles lightly. "Oh, there you are. Thought I was back in my school. I saw this tentacle lady."

"He has a weird way of making jokes, but I kind of dig it. I think." She admitted a bit unsure.

The Ringleader is still at the pumpkin patch yet is now in a different area. The sun is starting to rise but that does not matter to him. As long as no one restores the power to the carnival his plan will succeed. He starts humbling a tune in his head until he stops at his destination. A giant pumpkin on top of a pile of leaves and vines.
"Looks like they hid the place," Ringleader conjectured. He rolls the pumpkin out of the way. Then he takes out the vines and leaves to reveal a wooden door on the ground with a lock.
"Daddy's home," Ringleader smugly said. Before he can do anything else, he hears a voice.
"Halt," Lucy declared. She has both hands gripping her laser pistol at the Ringleader's head. "Turn around now."
Ringleader chuckles, taking out a smoke bomb. He drops it onto the ground and detonates it. A grey cloud emerges, making Lucy unable to see him. The detective in training fires at the cloud two times before realizing he is not in the same spot. She looks around the area, making sure not to get caught off guard.
"I bet you were sent here to stop me, weren't you?" Ringleader's voice is heard, but he is not shown.
Lucy walks around, still gazing everywhere. The atmosphere begins to increase tensely. Only the sounds of the DIT's footsteps can be heard stepping on the dirt and plants.
"Having a weapon like that in a show does not provide entertainment whatsoever," Ringleader mocked.
Lucy can hear his footsteps and shoots once more, breaking a tall pumpkin nearby into pieces. She turns to her right to see the Ringleader gripping a pocketknife in his hands, aiming right at her.
"Didn't anyone teach you not to bring a knife to a gunfight?" Lucy taunted confidently.
"I assure you child I am aware," Ringleader answer.
Just as Lucy is about to fire another laser, Ringleader presses a red button on the pocketknife's handle. This launches the knife directly into Lucy's pistol as she pulls the trigger. The pistol explodes and breaks into pieces. The DIT makes sure none of it gets into her eyes as several pieces hit her face. Her fingers are a bit damaged from the blast.
Ringleader quickly runs up to Lucy and punches her left cheek. Then he knees her stomach and pulls her hair into receiving a nasty headbutt. Lucy manages to slap his hand off her hair and steps on his foot to deliver a left hook directly at his right cheek.
"Impressive," Ringleader spoke seriously.
He balls his left hand into a fist to punch her stomach again. Then he uses his right elbow to hit Lucy's spine. The DIT falls to the ground. The Ringleader is about to step on her face until she rolls away. Then she stands up again panting, barely keeping herself up.
"So you're a glory hog," Ringleader stated. "Instead of getting anyone to assist you, you go by alone just to make yourself proud."
Lucy grabs a small pumpkin near her and throws it at the criminal. Ringleader breaks it with one punch. The DIT takes the opportunity to kick him in his coconuts, only for the lunatic to grab her right leg with his left hand.
Ringleader lets out a dark chuckle as he sees Lucy's terrified expression. "Many small brats have tried that technique countless times against me."
He lets out a scream and throws Lucy into the ground hard. Then he grabs her right leg again to throw her into a bunch of pumpkins nearby. The DIT groans in pain, watching her enemy approach her.
"You're a monster," Lucy declared.
"What's your point?" Ringleader brushed off the insult. "I've been called worst before."
He lists some words as he approaches. "Despicable, vile, cruel, inhuman. I just want to give everyone a show." He picks up Lucy by her mouth using his right hand. Then he shoves her down more into the dirt.
Lucy can barely keep her eyes open.
"I've dealt with many foes like you who have stood in my way, you're nothing special," Ringleader told. A creepy smile forms on his face. "But I can make you special." He takes out his test tube and opens it with his left hand.
Lucy screams but is muffled by the maniac's right hand on her mouth.
"Every act needs a demonstration," Ringleader spoke charmingly.
He slowly moves the tube above Lucy's head, just to savor the moment. Too bad that the lights turn back on. This causes Ringleader to let his prey go and look around.
"No, I need that power gone to get rid of the security system," He exclaimed, getting upset. He runs away somewhere in the distance.
Lucy slowly stands up, panting a lot. "I have to… stop… him." She passes out on the ground.
Ringleader arrives near the Penguin Sanctuary and sees a small building near it. He immediately opens the door and receives a flash of light thanks to Marty's camera.
"Now!" Axel declared.
Tamera grabs Ringleader's right leg while Caleb grabs the maniac's left leg. This causes all three to fall. Kylie holds the intruder's right wrist while Meredith does the same for the left wrist.
The Ringleader does not try to escape. He has been caught.
"Sweet, what do we do now?" Garry asked his leader.
Axel cracks his knuckles. "Make sure he stays down."
The screen turns black for a few seconds until a new scene starts. Ringleader has his hands handcuffed behind his back, sitting on a chair. He gazes at everyone looking at him. The Power Poppers, Sleek Slushies, Fried Freaks, the interns, Chris, Chef, and two cops.
He checks his surroundings and concludes that he is back at the entrance of the carnival.
"Good, you're awake," A female cop said to the criminal.
"We're making sure you stay behind bars this time," The other cop added, being a male.
Ringleader stands up from his chair. "Very well, I know when I'm defeated. Take me away."
The cops thank the Total Drama cast and take Ringleader away. Before he turns around, he notices that Duncan's sack contains some of his weapons and the toxic waste in the test tube. He smirks then fully turns around, the cops behind him. Chris then makes sure everyone pays attention to him.
"Okay everyone, I know this was something unexpected, but let me say how proud I am for all of you stopping a wanted criminal," Chris congratulated the teams. "Not the first time that's happened on this show sadly."
Lucy frowns, looking bruised. She could have stopped him. She could have put an end to it all.
"We could have died back there," Tamera told the host, pissed off about what happened.
"Well, you didn't so stop whining," Chris told the vixen. "Besides, your team was the first to turn back the power on. Which means the Sleek Slushies are the winners of today's night challenge."
"Are you bloody serious?" Boris told the host, flabbergasted. "This wasn't even supposed to be a real challenge. I did not even get to set foot in that gold tent."
"Should have taken the opportunity before playing video games," Chris taunted. "Besides, be happy no one is going home tonight."
Boris is seething with frustration. He helps his team get their first win and he cannot enjoy it. Elsa puts her right hand on his left shoulder.
"Relax, we'll get back there soon," Elsa spoke confidently.
"We better," Boris mumbled.
"Wait, what's this about no one going home tonight?" Maverick asked Chris.
"Think of it as thanks for stopping the intruder," Chris answered the promoter. "And also because I need my sleep. Now off you go teams."
Every team goes to their respective tents to fall asleep. It has been a long day and night for them.
"You know we have to give them another day off since we had two challenges in less than a day," Chef told his partner.
"Yeah, I know," Chris told the cook. He looks at his interns. "You four get some rest."
"Thanks for asking me about how I feel after being electrocuted by a mutant bug," Noah told the host sarcastically as he wonders off.
Duncan approaches Chris with a charming smile.
"You got them confiscated?" Chris asked the delinquent.
"Heck yeah dude, that goofy old man has a lot of goods," Duncan answered, showing the sack.
Chris examines it happily until he notices the test tube holding inside toxic waste. "I will be taking this for myself." He takes the tube out of the sack. "This could cause problems."
Chris, Chef, and Duncan leave the scene. Only Scarlett and Lucy are left.
The brainiac notices her co-worker's gloomy expression.
"Something the matter?" Scarlett asked.
"I have a feeling this is not going to be the last time we see him," Lucy admitted. "Or Lily for that matter," She said more quietly.
"Eh, usually once someone gets arrested on this show is hard for them to come back," Scarlett stated. "Luckily we don't have to deal with Chaos X either."
The brainiac leaves Lucy alone as the DIT's eyes widen with concern. How does Scarlett know about Chaos X? Wait, was she not the one who picked Lily to be a contestant?
Lucy looks up at the night sky. "This isn't over, not by a long shot." Once she leaves the scene, Chris appears again to finish the episode.
"Things are getting crazy," Chris said to the audience. "How will these hallucinations affect some of the contestants? Which team will prove victorious in the next challenge? Who will be taking the lame-o-sine and be the fourth person eliminated? Find out next time on Total… Drama… Carnival Calamity!"

On the road, a police car is shown going fast. Inside the car is the female cop driving with the male cop sitting on the passenger's seat next to her. The Ringleader is sitting in the back, keeping his eyes shut.
"Not going to talk are ya?" The male cop wondered, asking the criminal.
"I'm making sure to enjoy the show," Ringleader stated, still keeping his eyes closed.
"What show?" The male cop asked.
Suddenly, a white van bumps into the police car, sending its target off the road and hitting two large oak trees near the forest. After the crash, the female cop looks at her partner, seemingly unable to move.
"Drake?" The female cop said with concern, moving her partner around.
No signs of waking up.
The female cop notices a group of teens exiting out of the white van. She takes off her seatbelt, exits out the damaged vehicle, and takes out her gun to aim at the teens.
Inside the dented car, Ringleader opens his eyes and smiles devilishly. He hears a scream coming from the cop. Then, someone opens the door to let the Ringleader out of the vehicle.
"Glad to see you again Nathan," Ringleader greeted.
"It's Boss, remember?" Boss reminded, who is the leader of Chaos X.
"How cute, you think you're the boss of me?" Ringleader said then chuckles wickedly.
"Considering that we are saving your butt he, for now, is your boss," Lily added as she approaches the two, holding her laser gun in her hands.
She fires a laser at Ringleader's handcuffs so he can move his arms and hands. The criminal rubs his wrists.
"Yes, but who was the one that made sure to tell you all about having a backup plan?" Ringleader reminded.
The other members of Chaos X approach the three.
"Knives, Bandages, and Gazzer. You are three supposed to be in the van with Masky," Nathan (Boss) called out to his group.
"Just wanted to see how epic the dent I made onto the car," Knives admitted with a smirk. "Now it just needs to explode as we walk back to the van in slow motion."
Bandages giggles. "That would be spectacular."
Gazzer looks at the broken police car and notices the male officer there on his seat, not even moving. His eyes widen in horror. Did they accidentally kill a man?
Everyone hears grunts coming from the female officer.
"By the way, I shot her legs so she couldn't move," Lily told everyone. "In stun mode of course."
"I took the bullets out of the gun and threw it somewhere," Knives added. "That's how awesome I am."
"Wouldn't it be better to keep the gun and the bullets?" Bandages asked.
"I… did not think of that," Knives confessed.
"You going to use her for experiments?" Ringleader asked Boss, pointing at the officer.
"Hmm, my organization doesn't work like that," Boss admitted, looking at the injured officer.
"Well then," Ringleader spoke and walks to the officer. "I prefer my babies young." He knees down on his left leg so the officer can look into his eyes. "But to teach you all how to experiment, this is an exception. It is like that time I had a bright pupil who helped me out." With a swift punch, he knocks down the officer unconscious. He puts her onto his left shoulder, keeping it steady with his left arm.
Ringleader then turns around to look at Chaos X. "Let's go, I have more things to discuss on the way."
Knives follows him as well as Bandages, who is skipping her way. Boss looks at her girlfriend.
"Did you complete your mission?" Boss asked Lily.
"Yes, we now have someone to give us intel when needed to strike again," Lily answered bubbly.
"Good," Boss said happily and gives her a quick kiss. "Let's head back into the van."
Before Lily can follow her boyfriend, Gazzer grabs her right arm to get her attention.
"What it is Gazzer?" Lily said, curious.
"We just killed a man Lily," Gazzer said using his soft voice. He is terrified of what they have done. "I thought this would be fun and games, but we just became criminals."
What Gazzer said hits like a truck to Lily. There are becoming criminals. First, the mutated cops when she entered and now this. She was lucky she talked to who she needed to escape the carnival before the lights turned back on.
"I'll… talk with Boss about it," Lily told Gazzer. She is conflicted. She wants to make her boyfriend happy but at the same time is this not going too far? Especially teaming up with the Ringleader. She decides to bury those thoughts once entering the white van with Gazzer.
Chaos X and Ringleader leave the scene. Zooming onto Drake, the male officer inside the damaged vehicle has his eyes open. He was just unconscious. He rapidly turns on his radio to give a message.
"Hey Dexter," Drake spoke. "We have a big situation on our hands."
Author's Note: That was the end of episode six of Carnival Calamity. This was an interesting episode to write. Makes this chapter kind of unique in a certain way for now. Hope you still enjoyed it.
Side note, going to clear some stuff up in case of confusion.
Everything from the episode happened on the night of the 22nd of September 2012 with the exception of Chris' narration, which is recorded the day after on the 23rd of September 2012. Thought it would be interesting at least for this episode to do this.
The Charlie in Jett's hallucination is a different character than the Charlie Axel saw. It is just a coincidence that both characters have a person name Charlie that they know from their bio.
Hallucinations are basically what Owen's dreams and Mike's subconscious scenes are. Is all visual effect, though the experienced horror each character saw is real to them.
Thank you all for who continues to review this story. Since the last chapter, Carnival Calamity has now more reviews than Crowstilo Island. This makes me so happy XD.
