Chapter Two - The first day on the island

The 10 contestants opened their eyes. The sun shone in their faces, causing them all to wince. Then, memories of the day before came flooding back to them.

Chiro yawned. "When will this dope of a host see sense and take us off this island?"

Sparx closed his eyes. "Never." he said, and went back to sleep. The Monkey Team sat up, and looked over towards Sakko, Skeleton King and Mandarin. Skeleton King had his arm draped over Mr. Jeepers, and was sucking his thumb.

Chiro winked at Nova, and tiptoed towards Skeleton King. He laughed quietly, then shouted, "GET UP!" in Skeleton King's ear.

Skeleton King leapt a metre into the air. "ARRRGHHH!" he roared. Chiro jumped back, as Skeleton King landed in the spot where he had been standing.

Skeleton King rounded on Chiro. "Why did you do that?" he roared.

Chiro smirked. "You suck your thumb?"

"No! I most certainly do not!" Skeleton King hissed, but he was blushing.

"Yeah, yeah." said Chiro. He turned to Nova. "See if you can find food." Nova nodded, and set out into the forest. Skeleton King whispered something in Sakko's ear, and Sakko galloped off after Nova.

Chiro walked along the beach. "I hate sand." he said. As he walked past a palm tree, there was a rustle, then a thump. A coconut had fallen from the tree, and had missed his head by an inch. Chiro looked up and saw Skeleton King hiding in the palm tree, trying not to be seen.

"I can see you, bonehead." said Chiro, shaking his head. Then he smiled evilly. A plan had flown into his mind. Skeleton King was going down, no doubt about it.

Chiro ran back to the monkeys. "Guys!" he said. "I need you to meet me down by the beach, okay?" He was about to run off, but added, "And bring as many coconuts as you can."

Skeleton King walked along the beach, clutching Mr. Jeepers. He didn't like the look in Chiro's eyes. He was planning something.

"Don't worry, Mr. Jeepers." said Skeleton King, hugging the giant penguin. "I won't let Chiro do anything to you."

"And how are you going to stop me?" said a voice. Skeleton King turned around, and saw Chiro standing on top of a sand dune.

Skeleton King hugged Mr. Jeepers harder. "Don't you touch Mr. Jeepers!"

"FIRE!" Chiro shouted. Suddenly, four little monkeys appeared, carrying undoubtedly huge coconuts. Before he knew it, coconut missiles were hurtling at him at top speeds of 100 km/h. Skeleton King didn't stand a chance. He wrapped one arm protectively around Mr. Jeepers and tried to escape the bombardment, but he was bonked on the head with a massive coconut, bonked being a gentle term. He fell to the ground, and suddenly he was surrounded.

"Give up, Skeleton King! We have you surrounded!" said Chiro triumphantly. "VICTORY IS MINE!" The monkeys glared at Chiro, who smiled weakly. "I mean... victory is ours."

Sparx threw a coconut at Chiro. "Hey!" said Chiro, who lobbed one back. It hit Sparx on the head.

Suddenly, a full on coconut war broke out. Coconuts were being thrown everywhere.

"IT'S A MUTINY!" shouted Chiro. Suddenly, a huge coconut hit him on the head, and he was knocked unconscious.

Antauri, who was the culprit, looked at Chiro guiltily. "I think we've gone too far."

"You're only saying that because you slugged your own leader!" said Otto, and chucked a giant coconut at Antauri. Antauri fell to the ground, unconscious. "Oops!" said Otto. "EVERYONE! RUN AWAY!"

The remaining monkeys sprinted off, leaving Antauri, Chiro, Mr. Jeepers and Skeleton King alone on the beach.

Chiro woke up, and then Antauri. "Maybe we should head back..." said Chiro. He walked back into the forest, followed by the other three.

Nova walked through the forest. She still hadn't found food, and it was getting late. She had been out for a few hours. Suddenly, she saw an apple tree. "Strange," she said aloud. "I've never heard of a wild apple tree, let alone seen one." She walked over to the tree. All the apples were in perfect condition.

Nova began picking them off the tree, when she heard some rustling behind her. She spun around, but there was no one there.

"He... he-hello?" she said uncertainly. "Is anyone there?"

There was, of course, no answer.

Nova frowned, and resumed picking the fruit off the tree. Then she heard a growl. Nova spun around, dropping the apples. "Who ever is there, stop it!" she shouted. "Sparx? If this is some kind of sick joke, it's not funny!"

Once again, no answer. Nothing but an even louder growl. A stick snapped, and Nova ran for her life. She heard hurried footsteps behind her. Whatever the thing was, it was chasing her. She screamed, and ran on.

The thing chased her, then she heard a loud crash. A tree behind Nova shook violently, but she still ran on. When she was sure the thing was gone, she stopped running. But then she heard the rustling again. It sounded all around her. Then all went silent. Nova realised she was holding her breath. She let out a sigh of relief. Whatever the thing was, it was gone. Or that's what she thought. It could be watching her right now. She looked around, and sighed again. It was gone.

Then she heard rustling behind her. She spun around, and came face-to-face with her pursuer.

Yaaa! A cliffie! Yay! Hope you like the story!

Chiro: (rubbing head) Antauri! You could have thrown a smaller coconut!

Antauri: Sorry about that, Chosen One.

Chiro: You almost killed me!

Skeleton King: You? YOU! Who cares about you! You almost killed Mr. Jeepers!

Antauri and Chiro: Shut up Skeleton King!

Me: Hey! Read and Review plz!
