The Hoh rainforest, located in Washington state.
There stood the host of the show, admiring the scene in front of him. He turn around and look at the camera, seemingly pretending to took notice of it.
"Oh, sup viewers, welcome back to Total Drama Cruise!" Chris announces, "We seen it all and heard it all, and today episode is going to be special! No, not that kind of special...okay, it is that kind but this time, it's different! Because today is the finale! Yep, finale to end it all!"
"We have a fun ride today, folks. We gone through many hardship and many turmoil. Despite everything, these losers still prevail, either for best or for worst. Probably for worst. Some of you may be wondering, how will this be different from any of the previous challenge? I mean, our fellow contestant had gone through a lot such as Jungle Camping, Ghost hunting, Multiverse shenanigans, breaking in a terrorist organization hidden base, fighting in an arena, and so much more that many of you may think it's impossible to capp all that, right? Well, aren't you guys something. But this time, not only will it be much grander, but also! It's going to be lit! So do not change the channel or go to a different streaming service! Because this is!
TOTAL! DRAMA!-"
"CHRIS! IT'S REALLY YOU!"
"Ahhh! What in god names?!" Chris is startle by the sight of it. He never expected to see him.
Zeke. Not Feral Zeke, but the normal, old Zeke. Staring at him with a grateful look.
"Chris, my man! It's been sooooo long since we last met", He said, flinging his arm around.
Chris was confuse and stunned. Confuse by the fact Zeke isn't a feral beast, and stunned because he didn't expect to see...him here.
"Uhhh...how did you-?"
"Did what?" Zeke asked, then looking down at himself to realize what he had become, "Oh, I'm finally back to normal, man! I don't know how, but-"
"Uhhh..yeah, yeah, yeah, okay. Now move aside", Chris shove Zeke away from the camera, as he finally finish what he was saying, "CRUUUUUUUUISE!"
In the deep forest of the Hoh rainforest stood a platform resembling a fake, tropical island.
It stood there in the center, all a while the entire rest of the forest remain in the harsh, grassy and shrub appearance with the trees, roots, and everything being cover in a shrub like substance.
The platform itself contains palm trees on pots, fake, wooden sea weeds, shells, and a outdoor, wooden made bar.
Inside the bar, Aqua can be seen drinking a bottle of booze that she got, gulping it down in her through as she toss it away for it join with the piles of empty bottles.
She sat at the counter, drunk. Unable to make out any sense of wording once she spoke, "Victory for me! And victory for no one! That's the way of a goddess! Ha!"
Just then, a man dress in a orca suit with a smiling grinned, wearing shorts, and having huge, black glittering pupils, enter the bar as he begin to flap his arms around and begin to dace, much to the annoyance and stunned of Aqua.
"HELLO! I'M ORCA, THE MASCOT! BRINGING YOU THE FUN OF YOUR LIFE!" The orca suit man said, proceeding to gawk and laugh.
Not wanting to deal with it, Aqua immediately kick him, striking him backward on the ground as he lay there and groan.
"F*ck off! I already have enough fun in my life here!" Aqua stated.
Before she could drink another mug, she is then push off aside by Chris Mclean, as he still stare at the camera to get it's attention, "Welcome back, viewers! Excited to see how this end, I see. Before we begin our final challenge for the finale, we ask the two finalist to record their entire thoughts on this season from the past...ummm...months or so. I don't know, cant keep track on how long we been cruising. All I know is we got some interesting insight on their entire thoughts".
Statics, cut to Eddy inside what appear to be a stall made out of palm trees, including the toilet. He isn't alone in this stall, along with him is Celebi.
"You know, and I know I kept saying that a lot", Eddy confess, "I was seriously having low self esteem before I made it into the merge. Even after the merge, I still have doubts about me making it here".
Soon Eddy frown and serious tone is shove aside, as he moves back to his usual cocky attitude, "But who cares about what I felt. Right now, I'm fully confident and determine in winning this! Oh, and as for my thoughts on the season on a whole...ehhh, no comments. I'll say this, at least I'm good pal with golden, blond boy. He seem like a cool guy, isn't that right Celebi?"
Celebi nodded, "Celebi, Celebi".
Statics, cut to Armin.
"My experience this season is...kinda mixed", Armin confess, "I met some new friends like Lindsey, Ryuko, and Eddy. And I learn something new during the trip. But I will say, I am...not happy about certain aspect of the show, especially involving challenges created by the host. Overall, if I have to say one thing before the finale begins, I'll say...I'm hoping I'll give it all, no matter if I win or not".
Statics.
Back to the bar as Aqua snore into her drunk slumber, from behind her is a massive, round, wooden table.
There were only soda cans on the table and a candle in the center. The table consist of the two finalist, along with their friends. They all sat there, conversing one another, with two primary topic being heavily focus on.
That being, Eddy and Armin, as well as Ryuko secret from when she accidentally enter in the Realm without a Universe. From there, she recount everything she and the remaining cast have went through.
Even though the story has already been told to Wendy, Sammy, Tokoyami, Yuka, Beastman, and Lindsey, the others like Eddy, Mako, and Mikey still need to be caught up and know all the details that they have went through.
The only one that wasn't there, and isn't willing to reveal their own adventure is Aqua, of course.
While some are occupied with something else, such as Beastman chewing down a chunk of meat, the others remark from Ryuko own struggle and journey.
Some were interested, others were perplex and weirded out.
"Sooo let me get this straight, you met a magical fox who told you to do some weird task involving a couple of rocks", Eddy remark, "And then you met some blind kid, then fought a witch and mummy, and...and...am I seriously hearing that right?"
"Dude, I have the same thought as you do", Wendy agreeing with Eddy reaction, as when she first heard it she couldn't comprehend so much on what Ryuko told them, "Not so much because I'm from Gravity fall and what not, but you know what I mean".
"I'm pretty sure all of us thought the same thing", Sammy said, "I mean, sure I expect tons of weird stuff happening on a show that feature you guys. I didn't expect more outlandish things like a weird, god fox character".
"And am I the only one that finds Aqua companion fellow, Zach kinda cute", Lindsey commented, "He look so adorable".
"You do know you have Tyler, right?" Wendy asked her.
"Tyler who?"
"Wait, wait, wait, wait, you guys telling me your entire journey was mainly involve fighting aliens, mercenaries, mummies, and a giant mechanical monster?" Mikey asked Ryuko and pointing at her, feeling a bit disappointed that his own journey has a lack of action, regardless of some, "That's crazy?! I kinda wish I was there with you guys".
"Seriously? You really wish you want to be there?" Sammy asked, perplex by his response.
"Uhh...yeah, it sounds totally rad".
"I wouldn't say...'rad"' Tokoyami comment, "More on the line of traumatic. We almost die back there".
"Oooh Ryuko!" Mako, sitting next to Ryuko, quickly hug her tightly much to her uncomfortable standards, "I'm so sorry you have to go through all that! Did those two evil sorcerer's really hurt you badly?"
"Uhh...not a whole lot", Ryuko replied, struggling to speak, due to the tight hugging. She push Mako off, slightly and continue, "I would say Mumm ra inflict a lot damage on me, but not a whole not".
"Not a whole lot?" Wendy then said, baffle by that statement, "Ryuko, that mummy guy literally shot lighting bolts at you. I'm kinda in shock on how you manage to survive all that, just by...uhhhh..simply wearing less".
"Hey, if you have to wear a Goku uniform and take down trillions of students wearing the same uniform as I am", Senketsu said, "I guarantee that would qualify some durability to anything...still, that did really hurt a lot".
"Ryuko, if you don't mind answering, there is one question that many of us what to know", Tokoyami mention, "About the stones and the kid".
He then asked Ryuko in a more serious tone, "What's the main deal behind all this?"
"Yeah Ryuko, what does the fox guy mean by afterwards, you choose your own new path?" Mako asked, too.
"I...don't know", Ryuko replied, "I literally have no clue".
"Do you think he's warning us of something or giving us a head start?" Mako asked her, which Ryuko replied with a shrugged.
"Maybe it has a deeper meaning to it", Sammy said, "Like we aren't suppose to think too hard about it, until the right time is reveal or something like that".
"Yeah, that's the feeling I'm getting at here", Wendy said, "As someone who had to endure the entire apocalypse during summer based off on several mysterious, I can tell this whole ordeal isn't over just yet".
"Sounds about right", Ryuko agrees, as everyone came to this conclusion.
"But...wha do we do now?" Lindsey asked the possible question, "Do we tell this to Chris or-?"
"Am I the only one feeling this won't be the last time we saw those Black Hole guys?" Yuka asked, cutting in with another important question, "I'm serious, it's scaring me, knowing they still out there, possibly planning on getting back on us".
"And not to mention, Cherieng and Mumm Ra", Wendy said, "Something that you and Aqua brought up".
"I'm certain those guys won't get back at us", Sammy said, trying to shrugged the concerning detail, "I mean, they mercenaries. Don't they have other things to do like...uhhh...mercenary stuff. I mean, even if they do come back I'm sure we may likely beat them again".
"I'm not too sure about that", Tokoyami said, "In my world, villains will always escape and fight another day. If they do come back, there's a likely chance they'll be more prepare and more stronger than before".
"What are you saying?" Armin asked, worryingly.
"I'm saying, after what we experience from those guys, I'm afraid they aren't going to forget about us any time soon".
"Soooooo we are literally in a hot spot situation right now then, huh?" Mikey asked, which Tokoyami nodded.
This brings much concern and unsettle among them. Some thought beating them would be over. Some thought they don't have to see them again, afterwards.
But now realizing how urgent their action became, some were a bit serous and worry about facing the enemies they have fought throughout their journey again.
"Then let's tell this to Chris", Lindsey said, attempting to remove her concern expression away, "Maybe he'll do something about this".
"Like what? He's the guy who put us through this mess?" Eddy told her, "If we tell him this, there's two ways he'll react. Number one, he may contact them and use them in a challenge. Or number two, he might even hire them as interns. Both of them seem to be the likely hood".
"Look guys, I would love to talk more on the important, concerning topic at hand here", Ryuko told everyone, leaning back in her seat, "But right now, I need to relax and try not to think too hard about it. This whole stone thing is giving me a headache".
"She's right", Senketsu told them, much to his concern over herm, "Let's try moving to a different topic here, before you make my friend head here explode".
"Gotcha ya", Wendy replied, understanding Seketsu and Ryuko thoughts on the whole matter.
Despite everyone concerns and questioning on the many events that have unfolded, most forget that this is still a reality show. And so, they acknowledge back to what it was when they arrived, with Wendy turning her attention toward Armin and Eddy, asking them, "So guys, what are you guys going to do with the cash money, if one of you win?"
"Good question", Eddy smirkingly replied, leaning back his chair with both his arms spread out with Celebi hovering over him, "Firs thing first, I'm going to use the money to not only buy me a load of jawbreakers, but also I might even invite all of you guys in my special party...not counting Kevin and the Kankers sisters, of course".
"Nice! A wicked party, bro", Mikey responded with both finger pointing like gun barrels, and a blink at the eye.
"I think we all deserve a party after everything", Wendy added, with everyone nodding and seemingly liking Eddy idea here, "Right guys?"
Sammy: "Totally".
Mako: "Brilliant!"
Lindsey: "That would be great".
Beastman: "Did anyone say party?"
"I'm totally on board with this idea, little guy", Mikey said to Eddy, "If you need a party dude, that's me alright".
"Uhh..yeah...I'll consider it", Eddy replied, slightly annoyed but not too harshly.
"So what about you Armin?" Wendy asked Armin, "How are you going to spend your million bucks, if you win?"
The question of him spending the dollar is something that didn't dawn in him. Even at the start, he didn't really mind wether or not if we made it this far or won.
So the fact he's in the finale makes it more interesting for him to reply with a question that didn't expected to be known, until now.
"Me? Well...just be frank, I never thought of actually winning cash", Armin confess, scratching his head, "I was honestly more interested in the outside world than anything else".
"I mean, Chris did state the prize is convertible", Ryuko mention.
"I guess I could give the money to you guys", Armin told them.
"Really?! Like...like...all of us?!" Mako asked, shock and thrill to hear that.
Armin nodded.
"Well that's just lame", Eddy comment, "No offense pal, and I love that idea but is that really it? You just going to give up cash after you won? I don't have a problem or anything. I love free money, but...seriously? Like...come on".
"I'm serious. I think you guys deserve it", Armin state, sounding reasonable, though he decided to troll Eddy a little by saying, "Although if you guys do want me to spend it, I guess I could get a new-"
Eddy, quickly not wanting to lose the free chance of getting cash, told him, "No! No! I-I think it perfect you want to give away your hard earn money, pal".
Just then, to much of the unexpected contestants, Phantasma sprung out of the table, floating in the air, much to everyone startle.
Including Celebi, as she never seen her before and quickly hide behind Eddy.
"Hello everyone! Heheheheh! Sorry to cut right in but Chris demand for the two finalist to follow me", Phantasma said, "As the big finale is to commence soon!"
"Welp, good luck you guys", Wendy said to Armin, nudging her arm to him with good fate and a wink at him, "I'm counting on you boys".
"Yeah, be sure not to get yourself hurt". Mikey called out, as they leave to follow Phantasma.
Just then, a smoke can is drop down on the table. And before anyone could react, it trigger a tear gas, causing everyone to be confuse, stunned, and coughing.
Leading through the tall might of the forest surroundings, Eddy begin to rubbed his arm with anxiety filling up in his thought.
As Phantasma led them through a open trail, in which Armin wonder what the challenge for the finale will be. He felt the same way as Eddy, but not to an extend.
Armin took notice of this, as well as Celebi.
"Hey Eddy, are you okay?" Armin asked him, "You seem anxious to do this".
"What? No? Anxious? Me?"
"You don't have to hide it", Armin assure him, "I'll admit, I am a little nervous about the finale. Especially since it Chris, and...we all know what kind of horror he'll likely come up with".
"Heheheh, you guys are funny, whenever your scare", Phantasma commented.
"And you need to shut up, creep", Eddy told her.
"Hehehehehe, nope, heheheheheh!"
Eddy groan, feeling the anxiety leaving him and allowing the deadpan look strove in. He then whisper to Armin, before they finally made it out of the trail, "Remind me to not invite her in my party".
Soon they make it out, as the sun shine at their eye, blinding them for a second until finally the spectacle of light disappear.
In front of them was a huge, open area. An area complete with six, giant Chris statue with their arms spread out, ten huge palm trees spread out, a start up line, two giant stands from left to right sides, and the host himself, Chris Mclean.
Standing in the middle of the starter line, with a plaster grinned and a crack up coconut, with a straw on it and a tiny umbrella.
He waved at them, as they approach him forward, "Greeting finalist, welcome to the finale to end all finale! Hope you guys are fully prepare for what to come. It's going to be extra grizzly out there".
"I'm fully prepare, Chris!" Eddy claim, pointing at him and to himself while still hiding some concern, based off the amount of sweat coming from him.
"Good to hear", Chris said, "But before we begin, we need to go over with a few stuff before you guys die- I mean, have fun".
"Did you say die?" Armin asked.
"No, I say fun"
"But I could've sworn you-"
"I say fun!"
Startling a bit, Armin didn't want to anger Chris further so he remain shut, allowing Chris to continue.
"Anyways, allow me to bring you all of the eliminated contestants here to celebrate the big finale, as well as cheering you on and being an obstacle".
"Obstacle? What do you mean by obstacle?"
"Oh you'll find out soon, right after this", Chris pulled out a remote, pressing the red button as from his left side of the stand shows all of the eliminated contestants appear, risen from the floor and onto the huge outside stand.
It include the eliminated contestants that Eddy and Armin have already met, but it also include the others, with an exception to Starscream and Amy as they are absent from appearing.
From left top row to down right row consist of Wendy, Ryuko, Brendan, Priestess, Mikey, Mako, DJ, Satoshi, Yuka, Lindsay, Terry, Rolf, Sammy, Peter Perfect, Aqua, Eva, Stocking, Beastman, Dawn, Ash Ketchum, Clemont, Scott, Lightning, Sanji, Rolf, Mighty Ray, Tokoyami, and Alastor.
What makes this introduction quite odd and concerning is the fact everyone seem to be groaning, shaking in trauma, and seemingly having awoken from a sudden knock out, with an exception to Brendan, Satoshi, Peter, and Alastor as they seem perfectly normal for the most part.
Ash seem took notice to the concern, stunning Celebi as he wave at her with a hi, "Hey Celebi..."
"What happen to them?" Armin asked, looking horrified by the display, including Celebi and Eddy.
"Oh yeah, apparently the elimination portal seem to send some of them into some pretty bad places", Chris replied, "But do not worry. Everyone is perfectly fine and dandy. Just ask one of them".
"The tree...the tree was talking to me", Scott utter, cuddling to himself.
"Those faces...why did I have to be drop back to hell to those faces!" Sanji asked himself, shivering to himself as it seems he suffer the most trauma from his send off.
"I think I need some booze right about now", Murderface utter as well.
"Did someone say booze?" Aqua asked.
"Honestly, my elimination trip wasn't that bad", Satoshi added, "Sure, the residents were weird, but not it too bad".
"Sha-Lightning is perfectly okay! I didn't suffer anything!" Lightning claim, trying to cover up his own trauma, "Except for a few broken bones here and there".
"Chris, was that really necessary to knock all of us out by tear gas?" Wendy asked, rubbing her head.
"Wait, you knock our friends out with tear gas?" Armin asked the same question to Chris.
"Uhh yeah, it's funny", Chris told them, then said to the two finalist, "Also if you wondering where Starscream and Amy are at, well...let just say they dealing with anger management".
"Why?" Armin asked him.
"Uhh...for obvious reason", Chris, not wanting to dwell on that, move on with a different topic. He turn toward the stand and asked all of them, "Anyways, who are you guys rooting for?"
"I'm rooting for Armin", Lightning replied, standing up and pointing upward, "Sha-Lightning likes the kid style here. Fighting a pirate, landing a plane. Lightning sha-like".
"I'm pretty certain that's Eddy, you idiot", Eva told him.
"Uhh...Sha-Lightning knows that...boy".
Eva growl at him, then replying to Chris question, "I'm rooting for Armin. At least he's not a terrible, rotten, backstabber like the rest of my team'.
"Says the same girl who try to come up with her own devious intention", Stocking comment on Eva hypocrisy.
This seem to anger Eva, lashing out at her, "SHUT UP! YOU FAT, GOTH, WANNABE!"
"Now, now, let's not get wild up once again here", Alastor told her, "As much as I would love to see more brawl, perhaps we should save it for later and focus more importantly on the matter at hand here. Now as for who I'm rooting for, that's a hard one. I guess I'll choose Eddy. Maybe it his sense of greed, but I highly think it be more enjoyable to see how he'll endure it".
"Why do I get the feeling he seem to enjoy seeing me getting torment the most?" Eddy asked Armin, feeling a bit unnerve by the devil comment.
"Because I do", Alastor replied, as he begin to chuckle to himself.
"Your sadistic, you know that?" Sanji told him.
"What do you expect? I'm a devil, after all".
"Uhh yeah, whatever", Sanji move onto to Chris question for today, "Obviously, I'm rooting for Armin to win".
"I'm totally rooting for him, too!" Lindsey agrees, raising her fist out and cheering for him, "You go Tyler! I mean, Owen".
"It's Armin!" Armin shouted.
But much to Lindsey...well, low high IQ and unable to hear correctly for some reason, she responded, "What?"
This cause Armin to sigh, already knowing Lindsey personality and such, "Forget it. At least I'm glad you guys are rooting for me".
"Of course I am", Sanji replied, "Your the only friend I made thus far. The rest are either a bunch of idiots or weirdos. No offense".
"None taken", Lindsey said.
"I think he's referring to you", Lightning whisper to Scott, much to his annoyance as he rolled his eye from Lightning idiotic comment.
Moving on with the same topic, as Scott reveal his own answer, "I'm rooting for Eddy. I don't know, I don't have a reason, and I don't care. That just my random pick".
"I see you still butthurt about getting eliminated earlier", Dawn remark.
"Pfff, duh. No thanks to you guys".
"Well we were planning on voting off Ash, but then some of us seem to recall your previous actions", Eva told him, "Not that I was there, really".
"Hey, I would've been more pro-active and useful, you know".
"Yeah, as if", Eva sarcastically comment.
"Totally", Clemont agrees.
"I would love to see you even try", Beastman mockingly said, much to his annoyance.
"Rolf is rooting for Edboy", Rolf confess, "Rolf was impressed by Eddy millage from tiny boat to bigger boat for a huge hours and so".
"I'm rooting for Armin to win", Terry said, "I don't know why. I guess I just like his hair probably".
"I'm on Armin side here", Stocking said, "Not because I'm on the same team as his, mostly because if he's going to get rid of his money away to us then yeah, I'm totally rooting for him".
"Wait a minute, did he really said that?" Scott asked her, quite surprise.
"Yeah, I saw it from the cam recording", Stocking told him, "Didn't all of you pay attention?"
"Holy sh*t! Really?! I mean, I'm rich and all but if he wins, he's going to give away free money?!' Murderface said, "F**k, I'll root for him! Only because I can finally use all that to built my own brutal, f**king palace!"
Scott: "Yeah, I change my mind. I'll definitely support him".
Beastman: "Me too".
Peter Perfect: "Definitely".
Mighty Ray: "Hate to admit, but I agree".
Lightning: "Wait, who are we referring to?"
"Seriously?! Are you guys seriously going to turn your back on me because of Armin giving away money?!" Eddy shouted, "I'm literally going to throw a party at my house, guys!"
"Yeeeeaaaa, but...free money", Lightning told, not making this any better for him.
But there are a few who support Eddy, and even some that support both of them.
"Well I for one don't care about the cash", DJ said, raising his hand up, "I'll support both of them in this round".
Clemont: "Me too".
Ash: "Definitely".
Pikachu: "Pika!"
Wendy: "You read my mind".
"Welp, seems we got our response", Chris said, as he move on toward the other topic, "Now then, before we really do get into the finale I also took the liberty to bring your friends from your home world to support you".
This came to a baffling surprise to both Eddy and Armin.
"Wait, really? You actually did what?" Armin asked.
"Yep, I manage to get each of your friends to come along and support you", Chris replied, "Sure, I could've ask them to record themselves as encouragement, but I thought that was lame, so I decided just to bring them here, directly to you".
"Sooooo in other word, you kidnapped them?" Eddy asked, pointing out the obvious.
"Yep, and here they are now".
Chris pointed upward to a helicopter up in the sky, where Armin, Celebi, and Eddy stare up to take a look at.
At the helicopter, much to everyone puzzle reaction turn to shock, as it begin to kick out one by one of Eddy and Armin friends from their world.
Starting with Armin, as a skinny boy with black hair and a woman with a scarf are immediately kick out and screaming for their lives.
Finally, a boy with a hood and a boy with a long, green coat are the next to be shove out. However unlike the last two, the coat boy seem to be laughing, oblivious to him falling. And as for the hood boy, he kept clenching onto the leg, panicking and yelling, "No! No! Please! This is unethical!"
This didn't help much and like the rest, he was then kick off the helicopter.
With the coat boy flapping his arm like a bird, still laughing, "Look at me! Double D! I'm a seagull!"
"Oh my god!", Armin shouted, clinging onto his head with pure horror, as Chris whistle for a mattress.
A mattress is placed by Amok, only the issue is it was placed in the wrong spot, resulting the falling individuals to land onto the hard ground, pile up and tangle in each other, while groaning from the impact.
As much as everyone were shock by Chris action to not only kidnapped the two finalist friends, but also push them out of a helicopter, it didn't phased Chris at all.
His grinned remain and find the aftermath to be humorous, chuckling at them, "Sorry guys. We got a tight schedule, so I didn't have time to set up a landing spot".
"Chris, I am very concern about you mental health", DJ remark.
"EREN! MIKASA!" Armin ran toward his friends, along with Eddy as well.
Concern to his friends well being, Eren and Mikasa soon got up. While rubbing their head and trying to keep their glance clear, Armin asked them, "Are you two alright?!"
"God, you weren't kidding about the host being this cruel", Mikasa comment.
"Also, what was that thing we were just flown in?" Eren asked him, looking up in the sky, "Was that a flying Titan or what?"
Armin didn't answer the primitive, confusion mind that his friends were wondering. After conforming them to be fine, he was relieved. And at the same time, grateful to see them.
"None of that matters", Armin smiled, as he hug the two of them, "I'm just glad to see you guys here".
"Well...me and Mikasa did snuck out just to visit you and check if your alright as well", Eren told him, "Granted, I didn't expect we were meant to be kidnapped and be flown on a flying Titan".
"But anyways, that's great you made it this far, Armin", Mikasa said to him, after Armin release them, "I was afraid you won't going to make it, despite how strange the outside world may seem".
"Heh, guess I got luck on my side", Armin snicker, while scratching his head.
"EDDY!" The loud voice got the three of them attention, as they turn around to see Eddy being hug tightly, much tightly than Armin as he is being squeeze from the arms of his big friend.
With the kid name Double D finally standing up, while feeling dizzy from the impact. Pressing his hand on his head and remarking, "I think my skull just crack a little".
"Ed missed you, Eddy!" Ed shouted, with Celebi still remaining in the air, curious to her own thoughts.
The bones can be heard cracking, due to Ed strength, which cause Eddy to shout at him, "LET GO OF ME, ED!"
Ed did as he command, letting him go, which cause Eddy to be dropped down, harder.
"Eddy! It's been a while since we last met", Double D told him, as Eddy got up and brush off the dirt from his shirt, "I heard you manage to made it this far in the game. We were very concern, due to your...well, eccentric personality that we thought you might've been voted off earlier. But much to our surprise, we were wrong. Oh, I am so proud of you, Eddy. I think your brother will be definitely prou-"
"Hip! Hip! For Eddy, Double D!" Ed snatch both Eddy and Double, and hug the both of them, while laughing to himself and while the two of them are struggling to gasp for air, due to his tightness.
Luckily, he manage to notice Celebi, as he release them ( aka, dropping them on the ground ) and putting his at awe attention toward the flying fairy, "Ooooooh! Cool! A flying alien!"
Much to the confuse and bewilder look of Mikasa and Eren as they stare not only to Eddy, Celebi, and to his friends but also to the crowd at the stands, Armin took notice as Eren asked him, "Ummm, are they your friends or-?
"Oh, I forgot to introduce you to them", Armin said, "That's Eddy, one of my new friends and my finalist competition".
"He's...the finalist that's competing with you?" Mikasa asked, pointing at Eddy, while Ed is chasing and playing around with Celebi, both of them seem to be bonding really well.
Her reaction to hearing Armin finalist being a kid must've struck her in a more...disappointment way. She thought his competition would've be a much stronger player, but instead, it was a small child.
Regardless, Armin nodded and continue gesturing them toward the people at the stand, "Anyways, over there are my other friends. Ryuko, Lindsey, and Sanji".
"Hello", Lindsey wave back at them, Ryuko did the same, and Sanji remain sitting and smoking, as usual.
Before any interesting interaction could be made, Chris immediately shove Armin two friends out of the way and continue with his announcement, "Okay, we got all the meeting and reunion out of the way here. Now we can move on with the good stuff! Chilla!"
Chilla appears, using her ice breath to voice the startling Eren and Mikasa, much to Armin stunned.
She did the same with Eddy friends, freezing Ed who still remain chasing and acting all thrill, while Double remain in her startling and scared reaction, much to Eddy stunned look, along with Celebi.
"Was that-" Before Armin could asked, Chris quickly relied back to him.
"Necessary? Yep, we want to save it for after the finale. We don't want any of you to get distracted by your friends", Chris said, "But anyways, today finale will involve testing out your skills and knowledge. You two will go through three obstacles, each consisting one of your original team players. They will be the judge, as both of you will preform one of their unique trait and try to replicate it, only in your own style. Whoever gets approve will make it passed in the next and final round. And whoever lose, they have to carry a bag filled with bombs".
"Okay, that sounds...unique and...quite dangerous for the last part", Armin remark.
"Not really a surprise, pal", Eddy said with a deadpan expression, standing next to him with Celebi floating by side him.
"In order for this challenge to work, I'm going to pick three contestants from each of your original teams", Chris said, "just to repeat, they will be competing against you and judge wether you have pass or not. So let's pick our lucky three".
Chris turn toward the cast at the stand and begin to look, wisely as he pointed his finger around and try to choose who will be the judge against their fellow contestant.
"Let see...hmm...for Armin team", Chris begin, "Sanji, Eva, and Celmont! Three of you are the perfect pick to be the obstacles against Armin".
"Sha-whoa! Hold up!" Lightning stood up, pointing with his objection finger, "How come Eva is picked for the finale, while I, the Sha-Lightning, isn't. I think I would be a perfect Sha-obstacle for Armin, not her".
Eva, pissed off by his complaint, immediately got up and punch him in the face, knocking him down into the bottom of the stand, much to everyone ( Not all of them ) stunned.
"There's you answer", Eva sarcastically responded, then proceed to spit at him.
"Uhhh Chris", Sanji raises his hand to get Chris attention, including everyone else, "Do I really have to participate? I'm kinda not in the mood after you drop me down into...literal hell".
"I mean, it's up for you to decide", Chris sarcastically said, sounding it as if he's threatening him, "Granted, You could participate or I could send you back to your lover boys from Kamabak-"
"No! No! No! No! No! I'll do it! I'll do it!" Sanji begged, waving his hand out with desperation.
"Good", Chris continues, "Anyways, next up is Eddy team. From his team, I require Murderface, Brendan, and Mako!"
"If he lose, do I take his place as a finalist?" Murderface asked.
"No, but you do get some screen time", Chris replied, "So there's that".
This brings much disappointment to him, resulting in him crossing his arm.
"Woah! Me? As a obstacle", Mako was uncertain to think about this, to a exaggerated level, "I don't know, this feels kinda...mean to be a obstacle toward my friends. After going through a lot in this show, I don't feel like hurting him".
"Don't know what your saying, but the good news is each of you can come up with any challenge idea to make it harder for your fellow contestants to solve", Chris told them, "So there's the plus side. As long as it hard, go for it. Though knowing all of you, I am a bit disappointed as well. Hope you guys come up with something entertaining for me".
Statics, cuts to Eva.
"So Chris want me to come up with a challenge, huh? Well I got something that could be up to my ally. Will it hurt the blonde? Maybe, but I'm just going to imagine him as one of my backstabbers from season one. That way, it'll lower the burden".
Statics, cuts to Murderface.
"This sucks. I should've been one of the finalist, not those two. Stupid host. If he want me to come up with a challenge to screw with my teammate, then I got one. I got a super, brutal one that surely make that small, tiny, little b*tch fail! Now, now, I know that sounds pretty harsh to do toward a kid...if I was a finalist! But now, nope! No single sh*t will be given!"
Statics.
"Okay then, with all that out of the way, time to begin with the first final challenges!" Chris then turn toward his two finalist with a grinned and his arms folded behind his back, "Are you guys ready?"
"Are you ready, Eddy?" Armin asked Eddy.
"Sure I am! I'm fully prepare to do this!" Eddy shouted, raising both his arms up with his mouth open wide, "Let's get it on!"
Celebi clap for him, as Chris continues, "Good to hear, but before I continue forward...would you mind...uhhhh...tell you little friend to move aside? We got a huge event happening here".
"Celebi?" Celebi was confuse by what he was referring to, as she asked Eddy, "Celebi?"
"Don't worry about me. I got this all by myself", Eddy assure her, "Go hang out with Ketchum boy or something. I can handle it from here on out".
"Uhh, it Ash Ketchum", Ash reminded him.
"Shut up!"
"Anyways, let's begin!" Chris proceed to pulled out a gun and aim it at the sky.
Armin and Eddy look at each other, with determination in their eyes and fully prepare to do this. Eddy is confident in himself, he pose himself as if he's ready to run some track, regardless that has always hated running, especially coming from his school.
Now it wasn't the case here, nor will he thought of that here and now.
"Ready! Set! GO!"
The shot was heard and seen, as Eddy and Armin ran straight into the direction of the road into the jungle forest, leaving Chris to watch on with thrilling and pleasing excitement in his thoughts.
But after he shot the gun, he heard a roaring, faint sound coming from the sky. It becomes louder and louder. He then notice a shadow hovering over the stand, and as soon as everyone looked up, Chris reaction gone from confuse to stunned, "Oh dear".
Everyone at the stand scream and ran out of there, immediately as the thing that got shot down was a plane, crashing down into the stand, burning and demolishing everything there.
The flames begun, as Chris and Celebi watch in pure stunned.
Chris then looked at his gun and realize, "Huh, guess this wasn't a flare gun".
Then he moved on with a different subject, as he turn toward Chilla next to the frozen body of Eddy and Armin terrified friends, "Anyways, Chilla. You know what you have to do".
He's referring to her to push the ice up to the volcano, much to her dismay, "Ugh, do I have to?"
"Uhh...yeah, get going".
( Cut to Armin ).
After heading away from the huge opening, he and Eddy depart ways into two roads that are separated from left to right, with signs that shows the picture of them to where they must go to.
Armin took left, while Eddy took right.
The focus is now Armin, as he made his way through the crowded, lush, and tangle webs of the jungle. Pushing himself forward, ignoring the shrubs and vines until he find a clearing.
He can make out the direction of the road, despite it being cover entirely with rocks, few grass, and bushes. None seem to bother him or interfere with his determination.
Armin begin to ponder over this, while he continue moving forward, "I wonder what my fellow contestants will come up to stop me? I hope it's not going to be hard, though. I already endure a lot. I'm sure Sanji might come up with something easy for me to pass. The others...uhhhh...not so much. Well, granted Clemont isn't that hard, but his whole gimmick can be difficult for me to comprehend".
Soon he begin to see something in the distance, beyond his reach.
In the distance, it was another opening. A small, round opening this time, but enough for him to enter in a clearing.
This area includes a clean, 1940s stove and oven connected to a generator to the right side, complete with a sink to the left. On the stove consist of a pot, a frying pan, and a bowl with spoons.
Armin quickly assume what the first obstacle he has to go through, quite obviously by commenting, "Huh, I guess this is Sanji challenge, then".
"You got that right, pal".
Armin turn toward his right, where he can spot Sanji leaning behind a tree, smoking with a cigar. His hands tuck in his pocket and his glance meeting the eye toward Armin direction.
"I'm surprise you remember one of my other skills besides kicking", Sanji said, approaching him, "I thought most of you would've forget".
"What makes you think that?" Armin asked, as Sanji finally made his way toward the stove.
"Oh you know, fighting, surviving under Chris harsh rule books, etc, etc", Sanji then asked, in a wary tone, "Anyways, did you encounter any...uhhh...Queers on the way here?"
"What?"
"Never mind", Sanji quickly brush it over, realizing he can't stay too long in his own fear thought after enduring where he was dropped off in. So he continue, by explaining the challenge itself, "Look, you probably know the deal here. Cook me a spectacular dish under 30 minutes. And be sure to not screw this up. I'm really counting on you to win this, okay?"
"Don't worry, Sanji", Armin swore with his fist up, "I'm going to cook you the most lavishing meal that you have ever tasted before".
"Good. Great to hear some determination", Sanji replied, seeming pleased by Armin reaction, hoping that maybe he may win this round, "Anyways, I'm going to set up my table. Didn't have time to set up everything, so go do what your doing".
He pointed toward the pile of stuff behind him, consisting a table, cloth, and a flip chair.
"You sure you want me to help you with that?" Armin asked.
"Nah, I can handle it. beside, you got a challenge to do. So don't waste it".
"Uhh right!"
As Sanji leave to set up the rest of the things, Armin came toward the front stove, sink, and cabinet counter. While Sanji put up the table, Armin open the cabinet to reveal several things in it. These include a cookbook, spices, salts, sauce, and many other tools to cook up a dish.
There were also fruits and vegetable, along with baggage meat steaks and sausages.
Once Armin took everything out and putting it on the counter, he begin to open the cookbook first, figuring it could help him cook something good for Sanji taste.
But as Armin flip the page, Sanji moved on to the flip chair, which wasn't easy to do.
When he try to stretch it, it didn't work much to his small surprise, "Huh, what the?"
He try again, this time annoyingly hard, but nothing seem to work much to his frustration, "Oh come on!"
His shout can be heard, but Armin didn't pay any attention. Instead, he kept his sight to the book, remarking, "Okay, so it says here the ingredients for a stew consist of vegetable and meat. Sounds pretty easy enough for me. I think cooking something...simple may allow me to pass this round".
"Come on! Open up you selfish chair!" Sanji shouted once more in the background.
Even though he manage to open up the flip chair, it didn't work out so well as his strength manage to break the chair into two pieces, much to his shock and anger, "Damn it!"
So the cooking has begun. The timer is set, as Armin begun his cook.
He begin using everything to his disposal, such as vinegar, flour, beef, oil, wine, and vegetable. When the time comes to use the stove, he uses a pot, stirring and checking the vegetable if tender.
The smooth and curly flames emitted underneath the pot and the smoke emitted from the inside of the pot. Steam is the main focus from the stirring of it all by Armin, trying to keep up with the minute mark.
Inside, it contains tons of cut up beef, cut up carrots, tomato's, and potatoes, with the smooth liquid having a brownish and dark red appearance to it. It may look grotesque to some, but to the smell and taste, it nothing but neutral.
That is something Armin is not quite sure, wether or not if his dish will pleased Sanji. He hope so. If not, at least he try in a attempt. Cooking isn't new to him, but regardless his concern now was wether or not if he will passed.
After spending the entire minute working and preparing the dish, the 30 minute was up. It was time to deliver the dish.
"Okay, finally got everything set up", Sanji commented, seeing the new repair chair he did, while Armin did his cooking.
He manage to repair it by the usage of hard glue and some nails. And as he sat on it, right in front of the clean, white sheet of cloth on the round table, the chair is broken down once again, much to his irritation.
"Awww damn it!" He exclaim, as the chair turn to dust.
Once he got up in a fit of anger, Armin spoke up to him, a bit nervous, as he is holding up a bowl of stew, still steaming in smoke.
"Uhh Sanji.."
"What?" He asked, turning around to face him.
"The timer has been up. I got the dish finish", Armin told him, which seem to calm down Sanji.
"Oh...uhhh, great", Sanji pulled out a spoon from his right pocket and proceed to dip it in the bowl, as Armin is silently shaken. He wasn't sure wether or not the stew is quite great, as he believes everyone have their own type of taste.
And knowing Sanji and how he's very...concentrated with certain details of a food, he wasn't sure if the stew itself fits his criteria.
"Please god...please let it be good", Armin thought, as the spoon made it way toward Sanji mouth.
The spoon now contain enough filling of the stew, as Sanji took a sip. Dosing it down his throat, slowly and silently.
Suddenly, his expression changes. An expression beyond a clear thought. One that saw the entire big bang happening in front of him. It was one that he cannot comprehend to think, nor speak.
"Well?" Armin asked, shyly and worryingly.
The only words spoken from Sanji was a muttering tone, "It's...it's..."
"It's what? Is it good?"
"IT'S-!" The suspense is felt to Armin the most, waiting for an tense answer coming from Sanji and when he finally said it, "It fine".
Much to his...normal surprise, "What?"
"It fine", Sanji told him, "You can go now".
"Really?"
"Yeah, yeah, you can go forward".
"Is it...great?"
"No, it just fine".
"Like...normal fine or-"
"Look, do you want to win or not?" Sanji told him, "Just go already".
Armin understood it quickly. He nodded, place the bowl down, and ran pass him to the next route.
Statics, cuts to Sanji.
"Okay, I'll admit it wasn't entirely a stew at all. It was pretty much an average soup. Not great, but not amazing. Now for some reason, after I taste I begin to feel a bit strange. I don't know what, but I assume he added way too much salt. I don't know, I may be wrong. I'm not certain if he does use salt or not. None of the cans were label, and the taste does feels like slee-"
Before he could finish, he is soon knock out and collapse on the ground, falling into a sleep.
Statics.
( Cut to Eddy ).
Eddy was pushing himself through, similar to Armin situation.
Unlike him, he seem to struggle moving forward, mainly due to the jungle itself preventing him from seeing the first round.
He was in a hurry, shoving and pushing every bush snd leafs that block him.
As he grunted his way through, he thought, "Chris didn't bother make a clear road for us? I really need to take a shower after this is all over".
Finally he made it into a clear opening. And what he saw seem to surprise him.
Like the last clearing, it was round and has another clear road leading to the next round but in front of it stood a huge stage.
It was no ordinary stage, though. The state was dark and metal. The curtains were pure black, the behind wall of curtains were the same but with a painted, white symbol of what appear to be a skull of a animal with horns.
All of the surroundings seem to be cover with gothic architectural designs and statues, with the statues resembling goats with flaming red eyes emitting from it.
Eddy proceeded himself onto the steps then onto the stage, looking around in confusion on where his obstacle is at. He already know who he is up against, already mentioning it, "Wicked. Not bad looking for the first round. I wonder where's Murderface is at?"
"I'm right here...jacka**" Murderface finally appear from behind the curtains.
Eddy turn around and saw him, looking completely drunk. He was holding a bottle, his eyes are barely opening, his mouth drooling, and he is breathing heavily.
He move toward him, unbalance. As he moved forward, he begin to speak to him about this first round, "Okay you, listen up. I'm going to...say this once and only. You need to..."
He burp and dose himself once more with alcohol, much to Eddy disgust.
"You need to play a guitar that match my f**king brutal rhythm. And once that's done, you may passed".
"That's it? That sound easy", Eddy remark, "Normally I would be nervous but knowing my skills with instruments from Middle School, I think I could ace this".
"That's...good to hear", Murderface then whistle, calling out someone to deliver the two guitars. "Hey blue girl! Get out here and give us the guitars!"
"Are you...okay? You seem kinda drunk".
"Wha-? No, I'm fine. Shut up", Murderface said, still waiting for the guitars, "Anyways, ho-how did you manage to make it this far. Like-like how? May I ask?"
"I don't know. Guess I'm just a good player".
"Good player, huh? Like-like did you made any alliances or enemies or...anything?"
Eddy shrugged, feeling a bit uncomfortable being around him.
"Oh come on! I need to know how you f**king made it this far, while I got booted out! Like that sounds totally bullish*t here!" Murderface continue to drink a bit more, until getting more and frustrated, "HEY GIRL! WHERE THE HELL ARE THE GUITARS?!"
The Blue Emoji girl appears, carrying two guitars. One was a average black, while the other is metal, gothic tone with pure, dark red and several ribs and skeletons connected to it.
As Murderface and Eddy grabbed each of their own guitar, Murderface begin with his rhythm, slightly off due to his drunk tone, "Okay, okay, now...watch closely as I preform my...signature...rhythm".
He begins playing it. Despite his effort, Murderface guitar playing was rip, rough, and too riff as a result, with Eddy having a hard time understanding the following rhythm.
Even the Blue girl has a hard time understanding.
"Alright now, try...replicate that", Murderface told him, mockingly, "Let see how you...you do it, ha!"
Eddy proceed, as he try to replicated what Murderface just played, despite how rough it was.
But as he was playing, he stopped when he heard Murderface groaning, pressing his hands to his own stomach.
"You don't look so good", Eddy comment.
"I'm fine! I'm just-"
All of a sudden, Murderface begin to vomit, throwing out chunks of the previous liquor he had drown himself before, much to their surprise and disgust.
He kept vomiting, trying to speak up, "I-I'm fine. Ju-just see-keep-"
Unfortunately, his words were blocked by the amount of drool coming out of his mouth, as he bend down and fell off the stage.
There, laying on the ground is Murderface, gulping and twitching, as he lay there. It seems as though he was drinking too heavily and not having the same immune system similar to Aqua.
This left Eddy and the Blue girl in a awkward position.
"Sooo...ummmm...do I pass through or-?" Eddy try to ask this question to the Blue girl, but she simply shrugged.
Seeing that he already preform the rhythm, he decided to progress further.
Stepping off the stage and continue on with the next route.
Statics, cut to Murderface.
"Okay first off, I wasn't drunk. I was clearly in a bad mood that made me sick. I don't how. I"m not a f**king scientist, but if I-I am I would say it some kind of bull-"
Before he could finish, he proceed to vomit once more.
Statics.
( Cut back to Armin ).
As Armin made his way to the next round, this time in a more clearer road he stopped and saw a clear opening, finally making it to the second round for this challenge.
In the center was Clemont, doing his usually posing and dramatic, stylized gimmick of showing off, as he is facing away from Armin and tilting his glasses up, all a while Armin stood there, a bit confuse.
"Greetings Armin, I see you manage to get passed Sanji cooking challenge really well", Clemont remark, smirking.
"Uhh yeah, I did", Armin replied, "It was kinda easy, really".
His replied made Clemont chuckle for a bit, until he responded back to him, still maintaining that tone of his, "Then perhaps this round will surely give you the most hardest round yet! Introducing-!"
Quickly and swiftly, he turn around with his arms raised out as he proclaim it, "The 34.69 INVENTION CHALLENGE ROUND!"
"The what now?" He asked, as Clemont pulled out a button and push it.
Next to his left shown a pile of metal scraps, wires, tubes, and many other tools being risen from the ground by a machine, as it slowly risen it up with puff of smokes emitted from it.
"In this challenge, you must invent a...uhhh...invention for me to deem it worthy for science itself!"
"You want me to invent...something?" Armin asked, a bit put off, confuse, and a little nervous about this round.
"Yes!" Clemont nodded, then reaching his hands out once more, "Commence the challenge! You got 30 minutes! Good luck!"
Unlike the previous challenge, Armin felt extremely anxious about doing this. He has no prior knowledge to how the modern world technology work or function. He became worry, as he look doing at the pile of tools he need to invent a thing.
"Okay, now this is hard", Armin thought to himself, as he crouch down to think of a solution, "I don't know anything about making things, especially here".
He was struggling alright, trying to think or come up with something.
It would've seem this challenge would've been the one to completely destroy him. But then, he realize it, in the split second, "But wait, Clemont did mention I could invent anything. So it doesn't have to be perfect, as long as it something I built and it function right".
He wasn't sure if that's what Clemont but there was no time to think or reconsider, as this challenge must be dealt with under 30 minutes.
So he proceed to grab every tools that fits his own idea of a invention. An invention that could be very beneficial to science itself...whatever Clemont meant by that.
He uses everything from a torch to screws and screwdriver to metals and scraps, he use all of them in his work, crafting and using the torch to heat it up for a bit to stick together.
He may not know much but he is a quick learner. He begin to sweat from the heat emitting from the torch and torch sparks springing out.
But he progress further more as he did. He then moved on with the screws, using hammers and screwdriver.
Exhausted, yes but determination has not yet become weary. For this moment, he was willing to do everything to passed through, even if it will ruin his own entire body from sweat to oxygen.
Finally, after the 30 minutes were up, it was finished. Armin took off the heat mask and wipe the sweat away.
As he walk toward Clemont, who had fallen asleep onto his backpack, Armin tap him on the shoulder, "Uhh...Clemont?"
"Huh? Yes?" This awoke Clemont, as he looked up to him, trying to adjust his glasses for a clearer sight.
"My invention is finish. Do you want to see it?"
"Uhh sure, what do you got?" Clemont asked, as he got up.
As Armin made his way to his invention, Clemont adjust his glasses once more and finally see the result.
The result were...odd.
It is a long rectangular, 2 dimensional, flat...thing, with gears and a long, stretch out extra piece that resemble a arm. Everything was grey, with the exception of a few attach items on it.
These include a 1930s radio, a golf bag, and a refrigerator.
This left Clemont...puzzle by the sight of it, much to the worry of Armin.
"So what do you think?" Eddy asked him.
"Wow, uhhh...this is...unique", Clemont comment, pressing his chin, not sure what to think of this, "It sure does have a unique style to it. You did manage to use all of the tools, though. I'll give you that".
"Phew, thank you", This relieved Armin for a bit, until Clemont question begin to warp back his anxiety.
"But what's the function behind it? What does it do?"
"Oh, uhhh...ummmm.." Armin then thought, "Crud, I didn't think this through. Why was I more focus on creating something, without thinking the beneficial part of it! Quick, I gotta act fast!"
Quickly, Armin took his coat off and proceed to hang it on the arm piece.
That was it, much to Clemont confusion, "That's...the function? A coat hanger?"
"Umm...yeah, yeah", Armin replied, scratching his head, "That's my invention".
"So let me get this straight, you spend the entire 30 minutes building a...coat hanger?"
"Well...did you mention I could invent anything that's beneficial".
"Hmm..yea...okay, well at least it didn't blow up".
"So does this mean I pass the second round?'
"Sure, you pass through".
'Yes! Thank you, Clemont!" Armin compliment, grabbing back his coat as he made his way toward the final road to the final round, leaving Clemont alone with Armin invention.
But as soon as Clemont turn around, the invention exploded, sending him back behind the tree, all smoke up and in black dust, "Ow".
( Cut back to Eddy ).
"Alright! Got the first round finish!" Eddy said to himself, while running on the long, clear road ahead without looking as he is too consume by his own ego thought on managing to pass through the first round.
"Just only two rounds left, and I'll make it through!" Eddy told himself, "For some reason, I felt like I don't deserve to win that round. But whatever, I pass and I pass, who cares! As long as I'm still in the game, nothing can stop me now! Aha! Wonder how many time I say that".
Suddenly, out of nowhere he is stopped, hit, and push down by someone blocking him.
It was Brendan, who hadn't come up anything to make his own open surrounding as interesting, due to not having the materials to built one. Instead, his slow thought prevented him from doing so, as he is push down by Eddy unwilling to see anything in front of him.
"Hey! Watch it, will ya! Don't you see I'm trying to win here?" Eddy asked before, until realizing he had bump into Brendan, as he rubbed his head and glance toward him while clenching onto his bag.
"Sorry, I guess I didn't had time to come up with a scenery before you came", Brendan apologize for the lack of any special obstacle scene in this open area.
"Nah, can't blame you", Eddy then asked, as they both got up, "Still, could've find something like a chair or table. Anything simple could be necessary".
"Yeah...I probably didn't think of that".
"But whatever. What's the challenge, little monk kid?" Eddy asked him, "Got something harder for me to endure?"
"Hmmm, well...I'll be honest, I was...struggling for a bit to come up with one, but I guess you could draw for me".
"Drawing?" Eddy, confidently enough, didn't think it seem as a challenge, but rather a easy task as he crossed his arm and said, "That sounds easy. I was in art class before kid, so I got some master skill to draw something up that looks fantastic!"
"Oh, umm..alright...didn't know you were a artist before".
"Trust me, I got lots of skills before, kid", Eddy told him, "Now what should I draw?"
"Anything. As long as it looks good you can draw anything".
"Gotch ya!" Eddy proceed to snatch a slip out paper from his book and took some pencil out of his bag, as he begin his drawing and sketching on the ground, grinning to himself and thinking it to be a masterpiece.
Brendan stood there, hoping for Eddy confidents to get the better of him.
As he wait there, for a long minutes as he didn't bring any timer with him, Eddy finally stood up and hand the drawing over to Brendan, "Here you go! The drawing has been completed. I did a dandy work, kid".
"Huh, that was fast", Once Brendan took a look at it, he was...unpleasantly surprise.
The drawing itself shows Eddy head with his entire body being a shirtless, muscular built with him carrying a poorly drawn girl name Nazz. It would seem he has put more details on himself than the girl he is shown carrying.
As the crude figure itself resemble more in line of a stick figure, with a blank expression and poorly down hair, which was just yellow line strokes.
"Soooo what did you think? Pretty rad, huh?" Eddy asked him, nudging at his arm.
"Uhh...well, you certainly maintain some creative choice", Brendan remark, not wanting to come off rude or anything, "at least the shading looks good".
"Yes! Woohoo! I passed!" Eddy told him, shaking his hand rapidly, "Thanks for the compliment kid! Oh yeah!"
After he said that, he ran off to move on with the next and last round.
( Cut back once again to Armin ).
Finally and firmly, Armin arrive to the last opening area of land. He went there without any struggle or hesitation, just pure determination to get this over with.
The last area contains no ground but a huge pit. it was a huge platform, with the surrounding being a pit containing boiling lava, spurring the hot slime of flames and sparks from beneath, as Armin took once stepped to look down at it.
He remark to himself, "Woah, okay. I think Eva may have gone a little too far for this round".
"You got that right, blondie".
He looked up and see at the center of one of the platform was Eva, standing there without any fear and crossing her arms as a way to intimidate him.
Armin figure this won't be a friendly encounter, so he jump onto the platform near him. He made it half way through, as he clench onto it with his legs hanging out at the pit, as he slowly gain himself up.
"If you want to get to the second and last challenge, you need to go pass me", Eva pointed herself.
"Err, okay then", Armin said, "Is it a good idea to do this on here?"
"What? Are you scare?"
"Umm no. I'm just concern because either one of us may likely fall".
"Ha! Pathetic! I'll show you who's more concern!" Eva leap up into the sky and launch herself down with her foot out to form a kick, aiming at Armin.
Armin did not waste time, as he proceed to jump his way of there, once Eva kick made it to the ground.
Armin wasn't sure how to defend himself. With nothing insight to defend himself, he decided to resort in more of his scout skills. That, or just simply dodge her attack, and simply waiting for her to feel exhausted to continue forward.
"Don't just dodge me! Fight me!" Eva shouted, as he ran toward him with her fist.
She swing, but Armin quickly and swiftly dodge it.
Eva turned around and growl, as she ran toward once again, using both her fist to smash him.
Armin then leap out of there, as her fist made contact with the ground, creating a shattering and trembling noise, which cause the ground to form a crack.
"Don't you dare run away from me!" Eva exclaim, as he charge at him again.
And again. And again. And again. And again. And a few more times in a whole minutes. No one knows the time, even Eva doesn't know.
She was too hard focus on beating Armin, she didn't realize it was all to exhaust her to her core.
And thus, allowing Armin to gain he upper hand.
After all the constant dodging and running, it finally manage to weaken her.
She begin to slowly move toward Armin, as he finally landed back on the ground what could be the twenty sixth time.
He was exhausted as well, but not to the extend. Eva, on the other hand, was sweating, her mouth was open revealing her tongue to be out, her eyes were barely remaining up, and her legs were shaking, beginning to fall apart if she kept moving.
"You...aren't...going to get passed me...I'm tougher, stronger...and totally better than Lighter", Eva said.
"Don't you mean Lightning?"
"I know what I said!" Eva shouted, as she is getting further and further within Armin reach, "I should've made it this far. I should've...have. I train my entire LIFE! To make sure I don't get eliminated".
"At least you didn't get eliminated earlier. Does that count?"
"I got eliminated during THE MERGE! TWICE, ACTUALLY!"
"Oooh...uhh...sorry?"
"Grr, I am not going to back down! Not here! Not..." Before she could finish, coming up close to Armin...she collapse.
Fully embracing to her tired and exhausted mood from all the constant fist swinging, running, charging, and growling.
Armin looked down at her, feeling somewhat bad for her. It would seem pity has fallen into his thoughts, making him shook his head.
But right now, it not the time to feel remorse. Right now, it time to move on with the second and possibly, the last challenge to this show, as he ran off toward the next road.
( Cutting back to Eddy...again...this time being the final time ).
Eddy was now walking to the final round to this challenge, after the running was draining him down.
There was no special obstacle in sight. Only, there seem to be a huge, pink and yellow present box in the center.
"Okay, a present in the center", Eddy remark, knowing he seen this act been done before, as he approach it, "Let me guess, Mako is in there and she going to surprise me. That's totally not original".
"Silly, why would I do something like that?"
Suddenly, a voice startle him from behind. He turn and saw Mako, smiling at him and waving to him, "Hi, welcome to the final round to the first challenge! How ya doing?"
"Don't scare me like that!" Eddy shouted, "And what are you doing out here?! Aren't you suppose to be inside that present?"
"Present? Ooooooh, yeah", Mako said, "You actually thought I would obviously hide in there. How silly".
She proceed to pulled out a remote and proceed to press a button, which cause the present to open up to reveal a cake.
A chocolate flavor cake to be exact.
"Tada! It a cake for all the hard work you been through!"
"So that's the challenge right? I'm suppose to eat the cake under a second, right?" Eddy asked him.
"Nope, that just something to assist you", Mako replied, "You can't do something without a empty stomach. The real challenge is much harder. Much, much more extreme! Are you ready?"
"Uhh yeah! i'm totally ready!" Eddy felt pump more determine to hear all about it, "Give me what you have!"
"Alright! This round is-!"
The expectation to Eddy came to think this round must be a real challenge. A challenge that he must overcome to his own core.
But instead, it was a huge pile and stack of paper, putting it down right in front of him by Mako.
Much to his...disappointment.
"Helping me with my homework".
"That...it?" Eddy asked, "That's the final round?"
"Yeeeeeaaa...I ran out of ideas", Mako replied, "You can do this for me? Pleeeease?"
Eddy groan, realizing that the final round is just a boring chore for him to do, similar to how he would do back at home.
After enduring and challenging among their own fellow peers, they finally made it.
Chris awaits in the open area, along with him is Copperhead. Around him were the same jungle forest, only this time they were much darker and gray. It would seem they were corrupted, somehow. This didn't seem to bother Chris, as he took notice of Armin and Eddy finally making it to the finish line.
Both exhausted.
"Glad you two finally arrive for the final challenge today", Chris then asked, "Tell me, how was the first challenge? Was it hard? Terrible? Agonizing?"
"Actually, it was fairly easy", Armin replied.
"Yeah, I just gone through without any effort", Eddy replied, "Well...some, but you know what I mean. Also, if you wondering yes I did ate some cake, thanks you very much".
"Really? You guys didn't suffer any...trauma or anything like that?" Chris asked them, a bit surprise that the first challenge was that easy.
They replied with a nod, which support his assumption that his "special" challenge wasn't that special at all in his own eye.
"Huh...", Chris responded then whisper to Copperhead, "Remind me to not use any of my nicest intern ideas".
After Copperhead nodded, Chris resume to the main topic, hoping that the second challenge will surely be special, "Okay then, that's great to hear. In this final challenge, two of you must race to the top of that man made volcano. Whoever make it there first will win NINE MILLION DOLLARS!"
"Woohoo! Nine million dollars! Alright!" Eddy shouted, raising his arms up, "Let's do this!"
"But I must warn you", Chris continue, "The path where you will go through will be inhuman, horrible, quite dangerous, and possibly...deadly. Each of you may likely suffer intense heating and hallucination. Not to mention, somewhere in between there's a mechanical monster".
"Ha! No mechanical monster is going to prevent me from getting that sweet cash!"
"Good to hear some confidence. Alright, get going you two!" Chris sound the alarm by using a blow horn, causing the two of them to run toward the final trail, heading to the giant volcano, located in the distance away from them.
After they are gone, Chris then whisper to Copperhead, "Did you make sure the challenge is hard?"
Copperhead nodded.
"Good to hear".
The sky became grey, the once jungle forest becomes grim and dark. There was no sound, only the bustling sound of wind can be heard.
There was sign of life in this cold, heartless area. It would seem that once they enter this trail, everything begin to change from the average jungle appearance to a dark, sinister land.
Much of the concern came over to Armin, as he looked around with anxiety.
Eddy, meanwhile, didn't seem to mind it. He kept running and rushing forward, with both his arms reach out and his tongue flinging out.
Armin remark, "Say, do you think this is going to be the hardest challenge we've ever face?"
"I don't know, maybe", Eddy replied.
"Because...knowing Chris, I'm getting the feeling what he just said may be true".
"Aww come on, we face many things. There's no way this path is going prevent us from one of us winning".
"I...hope so".
The both of them made their way forward to the volcano.
None expected anything to happen during their journey but with high expectation comes with a cost and consequences to it.
Things may have started off easy at first, but once they gone deeper, further away from the last spot they stopped at, things became more and more dire.
First, they made their way through the high ground of swamp sea, filling up the entire jungle itself.
The sky still remain grey, only slightly darker, the new sound of creaking can be heard, and the wind itself disappear out of sight.
It would seem as though not a single ground without it being flooded can be seen. Only the boulders and logs are visible for anyone to stepped on or hang onto.
They were not part of the jungle, as it seems as though Chris has hire his interns to construct something like this, as a way to make things harder for the finalists.
Eddy shove himself through, regardless of his lower half being wet.
He shown disgust, but not concern. As for Armin, he kept moving forward, feeling a little irk by the surrounding itself.
None made a word to one another. Eddy can only grunt his way through until eventually he sank down into the bottom.
Armin reacted shockingly and before he could do anything, Eddy came back up, spurring out water and feeling disgusted by the taste of it.
A taste of salt and slime.
"Eddy? Are you okay?" Armin asked him.
"Okay?" Eddy replied, trying to shrug off his endurance by saying, "I'm perfectly fine, thanks you very much".
"You...want me to carry you?" Armin asked him, "You seem awfully tired and exhausted".
"No, I'm totally fine. Just...keep moving and ignore my struggle".
They continue to move forward, moving passed the swamp itself and away from the jungle appearance.
Second, they made their way through a snowing area, much to the puzzle and astonishment among them, as they gone from a jungle to a snow storm within a minute or so.
There was no clear trees, bushes, or green in sight. Everything was hard to see, due to the amount of wind gushing and snow blocking that prevented them from seeing anything.
And what's worst, the effect of the coldness hinder their movement, as they are moving much slower than before.
"H-ho-how did we go-go-gone from a jungle t-to-to-to this?" Eddy mutter to himself, rubbing both his arms. His nose, hair, and ears has icicles. He can barely make out anything, and can barely hear anything.
"I don't know", Armin replied, putting his hands to his upper forehead and near his eye in a attempt to make out anything, "But we go-got to keep going".
"What?!"
"I say we gotta keep going!"
"What did you just say?" Eddy groan, "This is getting annoying. Why didn't Chris give us anything to prepare us for this?! Sucks!"
"What!?"
Suddenly, as if things couldn't possibly get worst they felt a tremble from the ground, much to their confusion and startle.
"What was that?" Armin asked.
Before an answer can be solve, a crack is form right in front of them, and from beneath the crack risen a giant, mechanical monster.
This monster resemble a figure made out of giant food cans. However, it features are much odder than before. It has a beard with a long nose, it eyes were facing elsewhere, it has a grinned with a smoke pipe, it arms were cover in icicles themselves, and it legs are not seen. ( Author note: This is a reference to Conquest of the Pole from 1912 ).
They were in shock to see this. Chris has mention a mechanical monster they must face. And that fact came true, once they saw it.
"Wha-what is that?" Armin asked him.
"Uhh...I think that's the thing Chris mention be-be-before", Eddy replied.
Just then, the snow robotic monster lunge it arms at Eddy, grabbing him by the torso.
Eddy scream to his dear life, as he is lifted above, "AHHHHH! HELP ME!"
Armin stood there, afraid and wondering what to do at this moment. He try to assure him by shouting, "Eddy! Don't worry! I'll get you down from there!"
And then, as he looked around desperately he took notice some boulders and rocks near by to his right, seeing them across from the distance.
He wasn't sure if they are useful or not but he didn't care. He needed to save his friend, and he must do it fast, if there's a slight chance it could be done.
He ran toward the boulders and rocks. He grab some of the lighter rocks and throw it at the beast, as the beast begin to laugh mechanically and shook Eddy around while he screamed.
Nothing seem to work, though. It only manage to hit Eddy a few times, much to his aching annoyance, "Hey! Stop that! That isn't helping, you know!"
Desperately, Armin resort in lifting up the huger and heavier boulder.
He grabbed and lift it up from the snow, struggling to hold his grip.
He turned around slowly and toss it at it.
It manage to knock the smoke pipe out, causing the beast to panic and release Eddy, dropping him down on the snow.
The head result in the monster to descend, as Armin ran over to Eddy aid, "Eddy! Eddy!"
He came picked Eddy up, who was shaking from being grabbed by that...thing.
"Eddy? Are you alright?"
"Yeah...yeah, I'm fine. I-I-"
Before he could say anything, Eddy collapse, face front into the snow.
He has fainted, as Armin try to shake his shoulder, trying to wake him up, "Eddy? Eddy? Come on, pal we got to go. Come on! Oh no, it seems he has fainted".
Wasting no time to think how to solve it, his only solution is to simply carry him on his shoulder, "Don't worry. I'm not going to leave you here, despite us being rivals".
Finally, they reach the final stage from all this.
They the area near the volcano itself.
This area was much clearer, with a few dead trees and huge, black boulders sticking out like horns. The temperature was much higher, heating became the plague for this place, the sky becomes pitch black, and there was smoke emitting everywhere in this area.
Grunting, as Armin can only say as he carries Eddy on his shoulder, sweating from the heat temperature that effected this place.
He can see, despite his blurry vision, that he is getting nearer to the man made volcano. It was black in the distance, but now he can make out some details. He can make grey in the center, indicating it to be stairs leading up to the volcano.
Before he could reach it any further, he collapse to his knees and drop Eddy on the ground, still unconscious.
Breathing heavily and wiping the sweat away, he remove his jacket and tucked it in his pants, revealing just a simple white clothing from beneath, as he can feel the humid condition in his own thought and feeling.
It was as if he missed the snow area from before.
"Oh god...oh god...this is hot", Armin panted, "I can...I can't go any further. Not like this...but I can't just give up right now. Not for Eddy, not for me, not...for anyone!"
Gaining enough courage, he begin to get himself up slowly but before he could reach to Eddy, he heard a scream.
A scream coming from Eddy, as he finally woke up and scream to his first awaken. His scream can be heard, as he was on the ground, pointing at something.
Something in the distance that Armin cannot see to his own naked eye.
All he can react is confusion and concerning, asking Eddy, "Eddy? Eddy! Are you alright?! What's going on!"
"My brother! He's HEREEEEEEEEEEE!"
"Brother? What do you mean by brother?"
He was confuse, scare even by Eddy horrifying reaciton.
Eddy even crawl back to Armin and hid behind him.
"He's here! He's right there!"
"Eddy, I can't see anything", Armin told him, as he look to the direction where Eddy, "All I can is the volcano and...and...A TITAN!"
"Huh?"
Unknown to Eddy, Armin can see dozens of tall, shadowing figures with white pupils eye as it stare at Armin. They all approach it with their long, skiny arms and short legs.
Armin can hear the bones cracking when they move, but to Eddy he cannot see it.
He can only see his brother, staring at him with a grinned.
His brother is in shadow but his silhouette can be seen. He can also see it grinned and he can his voice, mocking him, "What are you doing, pipsqueak? Are you going to run away like your mommy?"
"AHHHHHHH!" Eddy scream and ran off to hide behind one of the boulders.
As for Armin, he froze there in fear, as the giant figures begin to get closer and closer to him.
"Stay away from me...stay away...you aren't real!" Armin shouted, as he begin to back away, only to trip and collapse on the ground.
Eddy can only peek out and see in his own eye, his brother tormenting and laughing at his friend curl up, alone thinking he's being attack by the titans themselves.
"Oh no! I got to do something!" Eddy shout to himself, "I know! I'll run away! No! What am I saying! I can't just abandoned my friend like that! We came all the way to win this!"
Feeling the gush of fear and strength, he can feel the struggle on decided wether the choice is fear or not to this moment.
Despite his timid and heart beating reaction, his thoughts were clouded with the danger that may happen to Armin, and soon he wasted no time to make up his choice.
He scream and bolted out of there from behind the boulder.
Armin took notice, as Eddy charge at it. He charge it, he leap over Armin and begin to tackle down the shadowing of his brother.
But to Armin eyes, he can only make out Eddy beating down all of the giant, shadowing titan without fear, only anger and determination. He was cover in dirt and bruise, with his shirt ripped but it didn't matter.
It didn't matter to Eddy anyway as he shouted, "Leave my friend alone! Leave him ALOOOOONE!"
He throw every fist, every pound, every kick and throw, but to his eyes they were getting beaten.
But to the logical eyes, they were gone. Armin can finally see it, as the dust that form once Eddy did his fighting disappear and what shown is Eddy throwing fist in the air where there is none.
"Come at me, brother! Come at me!" Eddy shouted, "I dare you! Pipsqueak! I DARE YOOOOOOOOUUUUU!"
"Eddy! Enough!" Armin came to him, trying to shake him to get to his sense, "It over. They gone. All of them".
Eddy furry hasn't left but once it did, it calm Eddy down again.
He breath heavily, as Armin told him, "Come on. There's no time to think right now. We got to get moving".
As he said that, both of them made their way to the volcano, finally ending the final stage to the lower floor to this Earth.
Now they continue, resume where they left off.
They keep walking, slower and slower as the sweating and exhaustion intensified as they finally made it to the volcano. It was only a reach further away, but once they made out it very clear they were relieved.
It was a long, grey and clean stair that led up to the very top.
None of them care wether or not if it a trick, a trap, a illusion or anything like that.
All they could think of is getting to the top and winning, ending the torment and getting over everything that had happen.
"There it is...the steps to the finale", Armin remark.
"Do you think one of us will make it?"
"I think...I don't know, but...let's get going and get this over with. Together".
Both of them nodded, as they proceed forward to the stairs of hellish doom.
slowly and surely, they made it to it, as Armin took the first step onto the stairs, follow by Eddy.
Leading upward, the conditions were no better than the last. It remain humid and hellish, this time more gush of smoke emitted from above.
They keep walking and walking, much slower especially in Armin case. His sweat become more powerful, his breathing was like a curse to him, and his legs were barely trying to stay balance.
There were no railings to hang onto, nor is there anything to support them in their need. It up to them to keep moving, even if the dizziness that comes to reaching higher may effect them in some way they must keep going forward.
Endure it, even.
But as soon as they reach to the middle half, Eddy manage to gain the upper lead, while Armin is falling behind. This result in Eddy having to crawl up there, unable to look up to wether or not if he is gaining closer or looking back down to see if he's higher.
As for Armin, he follow suite by crawling but this didn't make things better, as he stopped mid way through once his exhaustion overcome him.
His thoughts and body will not withstand this heat, nor will it support Armin to keep moving forward. He figure if he just let Eddy, it will be over. To him, he didn't care about wether or not if he wins.
So really, it didn't matter.
Eddy finally took one look up and can see they are getting closer to the top, making out the huge smoke coming out of it and assuming it to be the pit.
"I'm...almost there...almost to the finale", He was relieved but at the same time, his concern for Armin flooded back to him, causing him to look back down and see Armin collapsing on the stairs, unable to move.
Even though he is closer to reaching to the winning prize, he wasn't concern about that. His concern became more on Armin, as he rush back to Armin aid, "Armin! What are you doing?! You got to get up and get moving!"
"I...can't".
"Can't?! We almost there!"
"Just...leave me behind", Armin replied back, much to Eddy stunned look, "I stated before I don't care wether or not if I win".
"So...you just going to let me win the prize and that's it?"
"If it...means...to make my new friend happy...then yes".
Eddy...couldn't believe. His competition refuse to compete, and now here he is allowing Eddy to gain the win.
It was as if Eddy would've want that. Wanting to win the cash for himself and be celebrated for that. To Armin, it wasn't his concern but to Eddy, it was so much more.
In this moment, Eddy could've comply with Armin statement. He would've be fine with it or even, thrill to hear his competition is no more and that he can finally get the cash money.
That was his motivation, that was his thing. To get quick cash no matter what.
But this didn't strike Eddy. This didn't made him to want to do any of that, nor does he felt great pride to do such a thing.
Instead, Eddy became more and more frustration, more anger, and most of all...caring for more to his new friend than the money.
"No...no, I am not going to that", Eddy said, "I am not going to abandoned you just like this. Not this time. Get up, Armin! I'm carrying you up there myself!"
His wil overcame him. He lifted Armin up onto his back, as Eddy carry him forward to the top.
Both of them couldn't believe it, but at the same time they understand one another. Understand that this shouldn't be over and shall not be over.
Their end must be at the very top, and Eddy is willing to end it that way no matter what.
The boiling water can be felt, coming from the steaming bottom that emitted the cloud of smokes into the air.
There was no lava, but steaming and boiling water, as the sky becomes dose with the smoke.
On the top of the volcano, stood Chris Mclean. He await, impatient and checking with his phone, while the others that included the contestants, his interns, and Eddy and Armin friends, endure the heat.
Even the very front top of this volcano cannot escape from how the two finalist felt, indicating by the exhausted look, the wiping of sweats, and barely standing up, especially for Clemont, Chilla, and Jack as both of them collapse on the ground, unconscious.
"Now I'm beginning to feel more bad for Armin", Eren commented, "This is...horrible".
"How can this...host treat his contestant like this?" Mikasa remarked.
"Trust me, you haven't seen half of what Chris did to us", Ryuko told him.
"Especially to me", DJ said, "I have to go through therapy countless time. Even regularly".
"Glad I didn't sign up to compete", Double D said, "Regardless of my intellect, I wouldn't made it this far".
"The double E edboy is truthfully true", Rolf agrees with him, trying to release the heat from his shirt by clenching his collar away.
"Chris...maybe we should use the drones we have and...and...check on our finalist", Copperhead told him, feeling as if he's going to be the next victim to sub come to the heat, "I don't want to stay any longer on here".
"Relax. I'm sure one of them are going to make it", Chris assure him.
"What do you mean by one of them?" Sanji asked him.
But before his question could be answered, they saw someone climbing onto the stairs. Someone that they all recognize, as some of them turn toward the direction on where the hand has pressed and where the figure risen from.
It was Eddy, carrying Armin on his back as their appearance block the sun shining through them as Eddy scream, not with horror but with willpower, as he lift Armin in the air, as if claiming he and Armin have finally made it to the top!
It was like a roar to it herd.
But as soon as he scream, he collapse along with Armin.
Everyone gasp, everyone were in shock, everyone were in concern ( Except for Alastor, who still grinned ) for them as to see how ruin both of them have became after enduring from all that.
"ARMIN!" Both Eren and Mikasa gasp.
"EDDY!" Both Double D and Ed gasp as well.
"Someone get a medic!" Wendy shouted.
"Ummm...I'm kinda a medic", Priestess raise her hand, "I'll go heal them".
"No! Wait! It not over just yet", Chris then called out to them, pointing at the finish line made by chalk on the ground, "You two! Get going, fellows! You need to reach the finish line right in front of me!"
There was a moment of silent, concern among it piers.
Soon Eddy and Armin head begin to move and lifted up. They barely hear what Chris just said, but they knew what they must do, by the sight of the white line.
Both of them begin to crawl toward there, slowly and struggling, as both are fully exhausted to their core to even keep going.
But their determination were not over just yet.
"Come on guys, keep going", Chris said, "You almost there, guys".
"Chris, they going to die!" Ryuko told him.
"Sssssh, don't you see how much ratings we are getting this", Chris replied, "Besides, they doing great. Come on! Get going! Get going! You can do this!"
Some of the cast begin to cheer for them, mostly for Armin in this case.
Mikey: "You got this, guys!"
Scott: "Come on, Blondie! Don't let that kid win!"
Ash: "You can do this!"
"God...I'm beginning to think I'm grateful I wasn't a finalist", Aqua commented, "Oh, I mean...GO ARMIN!"
As the cheering goes on, Eddy and Armin kept on crawling toward the line. Moving more and more closer to the finish line with each of them having their arm out and reaching for it.
They kept going, going, going, going, going, going, going, going, going, UNTIL...

...
...

...
A loud blow horn is felt, startling everyone and causing everyone to cover their ears.
"We have our winner!" Chris announces, "Eddy is the official winner of TOTAL! DRAMA! CRUISE!"
The thrilling and relieved to the declare winner excite the crowd of contestants, as they all ran up to him, cheering and clapping to his success.
Some were disappointed, such as Scott, Stocking, and a few others. Others were grateful, either that Eddy is the winner or they are relieved that the show has finally come to an end.
"Also, someone should heal these two", Chris pointed out.
As Priestess has finish healing Eddy with her spell by simply pressing her hand to his back, everyone picked him and raise him in the sky, as a way to indicate to their winner success.
"Way to go, Eddy!" Mighty Ray shouted.
"You did a splendid job", Peter comment, "A splendid job, indeed".
"Uhhh...I did what?" Eddy asked, confuse as he fell unconscious before he realize it. Celebi gave a hug to his face, as he asked once again, "Did I win?"
"Yeah dude, you won!" Mikey responded.
"I won..." Eddy remark, slowly but quickly as he realize that he won the final challenge. Not just this challenge, but the entire show itself, "I WON! HAHAHAHA! I WOOOOOOON!"
He scream, joyfully. Jumping in the air with his fist raise out, exclaiming once more, "I DID IT! I BEAT TOTAL DRAMA CRUUUUUUUUUISE!"
But this excitement didn't last long, as he remember Armin causing him to pause from the revelation, "Oh wait...ARMIN!"
He turn around and see Armin, getting heal up by Priestess. Along with him were Ryuko, Brendan, Wendy, Sanji, Lindsey, and his two friends, Eren and Mikasa, looking concern for Armin well being.
Dropping everything that is a success, Eddy ran toward Armin, shoving Priestess aside, "Get out of the way! Move it! I need to check on my buddy!"
"Buddy?" Double D was confuse, along with Ed.
He came to him, bending down and slapping his face, "Come on! Come on! Wake up, you!"
Seconds later and Armin eyes begin to open. He moan for a bit, until finally getting a clear sight. He see everyone, looking at him with concern and dignity.
"Armin!" Both Eddy, Eren, and Mikasa shouted in relief.
As he slowly got up, he asked to anyone, ignoring wether or not if he made it here alive or if he's even alive at all, "Who...won?"
"I did, bro! I did! AHAHAHAHA!" Eddy laugh, as he hug his face.
This was a surprise to some, as none of them expected Eddy to get this emotional at this moment.
After all the endurance, after all the repeat of the same comment of the worse thing to happen on the show, the show has finally come to an end, with the winner being Eddy. The one who snuck under all conflict and made it through the game without a hitch.
Everyone begin to cheer for them, except for Scott, Stocking, Lightning, Eva, and Murderface, remaining unimpressed. Alastor actually show some support, by grinning and clapping his hand.
Double D snicker by the sight of Eddy doing this rare act, which caught his attention, causing him to switch from relieved to a annoyance look, "What are you snickering about?"
"Oh..uhhh, nothing Eddy", Double D comment, "I rarely seen you act soft before".
"Photo for the daily picture, Eddy!" Ed said, as he pulled out a camera and snap a photo at the moment that Eddy hug Armin face.
This almost blinded them, but result in Eddy getting very angry about this act because he didn't want to be embarrassed by the fact he just hug someone and got full emotional and caring.
"Got the picture, Eddy", Ed said, pulling out the picture and waving at him, while chuckling.
So he resume back to his usual way by getting up, charing toward him and shouting "ED! GIVE ME THAT PICTURE!"
"Uh oh!" Ed ran off, as Eddy ran after him. Reaching out his hands to grab him, all a while everyone else watches on, some amuse and cracking some laughs and chuckle, while others were a bit awkwardly deadpan for the moment.
"Well...it seems like Eddy still maintain some of his own self", Ryuko remark.
"Sorry you didn't win, Armin", Eren said, as she and the others around him such as Mikasa, Wendy, Brendan, Lindsey, and Ryuko.
"I know you must felt reeeaal disappointed you didn't win, dude", Wendy said.
But Armin wasn't disappointed. Instead, he seem glad that Eddy won, indicated by his smile, "It okay. The money and me winning wasn't important to me, anyways. As long as I made some new friends, I'm perfectly fine by it".
"Aww, that's very cute, Amish", Lindsey comment, "I mean, Tyler. I mean...uhhh...what's your name again?"
As this event is being unfolded, Chris finish up the last announcement to the camera, saying, "Well folks, it seems we have finally have come to an end! The end of Total Drama Cruise! After an entire episode non stop action, drama, and more action we finally conclude season eight, nine, or whatever of Total Drama! Will we comeback? Dom't know, but make sure to stay tune to find out on...TOTAL! DRAMA! CRUUUUUUUUUISSSEE!"
Just as he finish, Eddy manage to trip while running, causing him to fall and accidentally push the sphere ( That was randomly there ) off into the pit of the volcano, as it plunder down into the boiling water, getting the attention of Chris and his interns.
They look down, as the sphere sink into the water, submerge even.
"Uhhh...Chris, I think your prize thing has fell into the water", Phantasma told him.
"Oh yeah...eh, whatever", Chris shrugged, "Kinda lose is usage to me for some reason. Anyways, let's move on with the finale celebration party! At a hotel somewhere in Oil City".
"Which hotel?" Copperhead asked him.
"I don't know. Go register one, moron".
Statics, cuts to Eddy.
"Yes! Yes! Yes! I won! I actually won! I...didn't think I ever did it! I actually won free money! And best of all, I don't have to be a laughing stock in the Cul De Sac! Take that, Kevin and Sarah! I won and you don't! Ahahahahahahahahahaha!"
Statics, cut to Armin.
"Well...I lost...but at least I try my best. It didn't really matter to me, anyways. I made some friends, and I help someone reach his goal. So really, I'm not entirely disappointed in me losing. Were there times I should've done better? Yes, but it didn't matter at the end. What matters is Eddy being happy. And hey, at least finally the show is over. Now I don't have to suffer anymore under Chris torments...I seriously hope I don't come back to this again".
Statics.
Somewhere in Oil City at a Holiday Inn Express hotel, a celebration party has been set up there in the party room.
The party room in question was made up by round tables with tablecloth and black, slick and wooden chairs. The surrounding walls, ceilings, and floors were either white or red. The room was square long, there are three doors, one leading to the counter, the left one leads to the kitchen, and the right leads to another extra room.
A buffet is set up toward the left side, as it being run by Sanji himself, doing the cooking for his fellow contestants.
Everyone were conversing to one another, enjoying themselves as the music is being play in the background by a speaker connected to a laptop, set up by Blue girl herself.
Eddy was sitting at a table and leaning in his chair with a open brief case on the table that expose the prize, while being talk among by some of the contestant such as Ash Ketchum, Peter, Mighty Ray, Clemont, Double D, Ed, Satoshi, and Yuka, all a while Celebi hover near him.
Most of them were listening to Eddy hangover adventure, as they were curious on how Eddy manage to endure all that without any trauma.
"Whoa, so your telling me you fought a pirate, bounty hunters, and manage to land the shuttle to safety?" Ash asked, astonish, even Pikachu was surprise by it.
"Yep, I manage to do all that without a single struggle", Eddy said, grinning to himself and folding his legs, "I wasn't scare at all during that whole ordeal".
"Awesome".
"Pika".
"I am very impressed, Eddy", Double D remark, "I'm sure all of the Cul De Sac will hear about your amazing story".
"I like the part with chocolate", Ed added.
"Say Eddy, what are you going to do with Celebi?" Satoshi asked him.
"Her? I don't know", Eddy replied, "I guess I'll let her hang out with me. She seem to like me very well".
"Celebi, Celebi, Celebi", Celebi nodded.
"That's great to hear", Ash said, "You know, me and Celebi actually used to be friends long time ago. I was wondering if I could visit you to hang out with Celebi, what do you say?"
"Heheheheh...I'll think about it", Eddy said, then mutter, "Not".
"Geez, I never knew you were friend with a legendary Pokemon, Ash", Clemont remark to him, quite surprise by that fact.
"And I didn't expect I was going to see Celebi again after all these months", Ash said, even Pikachu nodded in agreement.
While that was going on, at the other table Ryuko was having a conversation among the other contestant and Armin two friends, with the exception of Stocking, Lightning, Eva, Alastor, Aqua, Beastman, Mako, and Terry.
The conversation mostly focus on Ryuko story, as most were hidden from the dark about her experience, as well as curious to know what she had endure. They even converse among other things such as some of the eliminated contestant experience in other worlds, as well experiences under Chris harsh rules, mostly to Eren and Mikasa.
"That's the whole secret?" Priestess remark from Ryuko accounts, "Wow, that must've been...very...I can't put my word on it".
"Weird, yeah I figure", Ryuko said, casually.
"Soooooo why does the fox guy want you to keep it a secret from us?" Sammy asked, "I probably should've said this earlier, but why?"
"Honestly, I'm guessing to not deterred it from me winning this show", Ryuko replied, "Despite me not winning, of course".
"And you aren't...concern about the future?" Brendan asked her.
"No, not at all", Ryuko replied, "I don't know much what's going to happen next. What I do know is I need to be fully prepare for anything to what to come".
"Sheesh, I'm kinda a little scare myself, actually", Armin told her, "From your account, I'm kinda worry what we may face up against. Now knowing about this vague...event or something like that".
"Hey, let's not all get irk up by this", Ryuko told him, "It's a party guys. Relax".
"Ryuko right", Senketsu agrees, "Let's try to ease ourselves, and RELAX!"
"A little too hyper there?"
"Hey, I haven't had much relaxation during this, okay?"
"You literally slept the entire show".
"Well...sleeping can be really stressful".
Ryuko sigh, not willing to deal with her clothing argument. Before they could move on with a different topic, Ryuko spoke to Brendan, telling him, "Oh, and Brendan I'm really sorry I didn't tell you this, or any of this to you guys. Again, fox guy told me to keep it a secret and all that".
"It fine", Brendan replied, "I kinda knew you didn't want to reveal anything to us. After all, like you mention it would likely deterred any of us".
"Say, speaking of, anyone wonder how Aqua is coping right now?" Sammy asked all of them.
"Oh yeah...her", Ryuko responded, sounding...a little disgust by hearing that word.
This question made them move to a different topic, as they all turned and glance toward Aqua, who was leaning on the wall. Sitting down while dosing herself with liquor. Around her were liquor stains and empty bottles.
It seem her definition of celebrations comes from simply getting drunk, and that is exactly what she is doing right now.
"Screw you guuuuys!" Aqua shouted, raising her bottle up and still maintaining her drunk side, "Money doesn't concern about me because I'm a GOOOOOOOOD".
"Is it me or am I the only one that feel almost sorry for her", Brendan asked them, as he was the only one that felt some pity, despite everything she did, "Even though she did some awful things and kinda backstab me, I felt a little bad for her. She has so much potential going around her, and she was like a friend to me".
"Ah, well...there was really nothing we could do", Ryuko told him, "She chose this route and...she suffering for it".
"If only there was some way she could've avoided all this".
"Yeah...yeah...I wish for it too", Ryuko said, "I totally wish so too, Brendan".
"You being sarcastic, aren't you?"
"Yep".
Elsewhere, Mako, Dawn, Scott, and Stocking were both watching Sanji cook, as for others Alastor is seen drinking some wine to himself and enjoying the music while Lightning is talking to Eva about his success and his muscle.
"I got a football career and I got the muscle to make it all through", Lightning said to himself, as he flex his muscle, "Shabam!"
"As if that's going to cover up all your sham on his show", Eva told him.
"Hey! Lightning at least prove himself. And I at least learn Sha-something from today".
"On what?"
"Uhh...Lightning shouldn't trust little girls", Lightning told her, causing her to crossed her arm and rolled her eye, "That's what I learn".
"If there's a next season, they better not bring this oaf back", Eva mutter to herself.
"Now watch me flex my muscle!" Before Lightning could do so, "Sha-"
Eva kick him in the crotch and leave somewhere else, causing Lightning to collapse and moan from his way, "Sha-mama".
Cutting to the buffet, Sanji is cooking up a special dish for this display. Mako, Dawn, and Stocking were there to admire the cooking ( With an exception to her, as she is merely bored out of her mind ), while Scott is only there to gock at him, just out of mere amusement.
Sanji is cooking an omelet, all a while commenting on the food itself, "You see, all you need to know on how to cook a fantastic omelet is by making sure it crispy enough and endurance enough to satisfied a customer taste".
"Wow! That's amazing!" Mako remark, at awe to him, "I'm going to use that line whenever I cook".
"Very impressive", Dawn comment, "I can see you be a potential cook some day".
"Pff, big deal", Scott said, "It just food. Don't need to make it all whimsical and fancy".
"Well thanks for the compliment you girls, except for you Scott", Sanji said to all of them, "I'm really happy whenever someone appreciate my talents. More so than my father...and Mosshead".
"Oh! I forgot!" Mako spotted someone entering the room. Someone Mako knew and met during the shuttle trip, "Sanji, I think you might be happy to know I met someone along the way. And he's very interested in meeting you".
"Really? Who-" Before he could finish, he turn around and face him.
His expression goes from relax and cool to a shocking and baffle expression as he recognize this man before.
Mihawk.
This cause him to drop the frying pan, as his jaw dropped by the sight of him.
"Greeting fellow Straw Hat member", Mihawk greet, tilting his hat down as a gesture, "Mako had told me everything about you on this show so I decided to visit you and see how you doing".
"Uhhh...uhhh...great! I'm...doing just fine!" Sanji quickly salute to him, "No problem here, warlord! Nothing at all!"
"Ummm, who the heck are you?" Scott asked him.
"He's a warlord and a great swordsmen in Sanji universe", Mako explain, "He's a cool guy, once you get to know him".
"Well that's good to hear. I wasn't expecting you to be the type to compete in a game show", Mihawk remark, "But I guess we all have our own little surprises".
"Uhhhhhhhh...yeah...yeah, we alllll doooooo", Sanji said.
"Anyways, as much as I want to stay and chat, I must be leaving now. My break has already been over and I need to get back to report this to the Elders. I'm sure they would be happy to hear my story", Mihawk said, as he turn around and leave, "Goodbye".
After he leaves, Sanji slowly turned his head around to stare at Mako, with her still grinning at him.
"Mako...why did you bring in a warlord here?" Sanji asked her, while she still maintain her smile, "AND WHAT DID YOU TOLD HIM?!"
Outside the hotel, Chris was calling through his phone.
After the finale event, he's has receive a call from the producers, much to his interest.
"Okay, okay, okay, so I may lost the ship", Chris said, "I may blown all away the budget on that man made volcano. But come on, did you see the ratings?...uh huh...yeah...wait, you serious?...really?!"
Back to the volcano, the result of the sphere fallen into the volcano, cause it to erupt, forcing the sphere to break, and shooting all the energy into the sky above like a firework.
But it did not explode, as all of the sparks spread out and disappear within the sky. All disappearing into somewhere that is beyond Earth.
As for the man made volcano, it begins to spur out waves of boiling water, as a gush of them stream down from it.
( Note: Insert The Hives- Hate to say I told you so ).
( Somewhere, on a planet known as Galaluna ).
A figure watches through the long, tall window, seeing the once beauty of a city turn into complete ruined. The sky remain red and orange, the city is still desolated, and there is seem to be little of any hope left in this land.
But one particular interest caught the figure eye. In the sky, a white firework can be seen, as it exploded in the air, allowing a color that defy the nature to this sky itself.
But before he could react, he heard footstep coming to him. He turn around and see the one whom he hired.
Gine.
The figure reveal itself, with a white beard, a long general helment, a uniform, boots, and a long fur cape. He turned around, slightly and asked, "Greeting...Gine, I was expecting you a long hour ago".
"Apologize", Gine replied, "There was a lot of...setback during my trip. I hope it doesn't bother you".
"I"m not bother", He said, then asked, "Did you got the piece I require"
"Yes...I do, General Modula", Gine hold out a small box, as she open it to reveal a similar piece to the Soul Stone. In fact, it seem to be so, as indicated by Modula grinned as he see it.
"Excellent", He compliment, turning back to face the window, "How did you manage to get it?"
"It wasn't easy", Gine replied, "I did a lot of things to require it. I don't want to explanation a whole lot. It complicated".
"Hmm...well done", Modula said, "I say, I'm most impressed by your action today. Not only did you comply with my need, but you manage to arrive here, with the thing I have order you to get it for me".
After he said that, Gine hand the box to him. But before Gine could leave, she is stopped by Modula own words, getting her attention.
"Where are you going? There still much more to do for me, my dear".
"More?" She asked, turning around to face him, a little confuse by her client.
"Yes", He explain, "I was thinking for a while now and after you arrive with the stone I was certain you were the one. You see, I hired other bounty hunters to do the job for me. But all of them had failed me; As a result, I had to hire ones who were...cheapest to do the work for me. And that's where you come in"
"Where are you getting at?"
"I'm offering you a chance to be my...loyal agent to me", He said, "I'm asking if you are willing to gather all of the pieces for me in exchange I'll split my power to you. Are you interested in it?"
Gine was surprise by this offer. She remain hesitant, feeling she doesn't comprehend wielding such a powerful position, nor wether or not if she willing to do this type of task.
"I know it may seem too hard to believe", Modula told her, "But trust me, this new job will bring new forth of a new era not just for me...but you as well".
After some time of thinking about it, Gine nodded to him, much to his grinning pleased face.
( Meanwhile, in the One Piece world ).
At the Pangaea Castle, located in Mary Geoise holds the power of the Marines and World Government with it being control by the Five Elders councils, otherwise known as the Five Elder Stars each serving as high officials under the actual true ruler that goes unknown.
Each of the men were in a lounging room. Most sat, others stood. These men serve as the great judgement and authority through many of the entire room, outside from their own palace.
One is a man with a scar, has dreadlock hair, wears a hat, and is holding a cane.
Another is a man who is tall with a long hair and long beard.
Third is a man who is bald, rounded, and has a curved mustache.
Forth is much more different from the rest, as he resemble similar to a samurai, only he is much more older and has glasses.
The last is a man who is much more built than the rest. Having blond hair and beard, looking much younger than the rest.
Everything in the room were a mixed between pale and blue, with the exception toward the furniture, as most of them are clad in green.
They were there for a reason, as they were not alone to discuss a interesting matter.
A Marine Admiral stood in the room, with his arm folded. He's much taller, wears a marine coat and a cap, has tattoos on himself, and has a red, colored unbutton shirt beneath the suit.
As he puff a cigar, another figure stood in the room. This time it was a warlord.
Mihawk, as he arrive there to inform them about the news of a particular Straw Hat competing on a multiverse TV show.
"So your telling us that one of the Straw Hats is competing on a reality show set in the outer universe?" The round asked, repeating what Mihawk just inform.
Mihawk nodded, "Yes, I was inform that one of them has star in this show that I haven't heard of. Apparently, it a show involving contestants from different universe competing in a show to win a prize".
"I see", The hat comment, "In other words, they bring along a infamous pirate just for the ratings, correct?"
"After hearing what one of the contestant told me, I believe so".
"A show filled with many oddity from different world", The tall one comment, "How interesting is that. If a reality show could bring along a infamous pirate, what more could they bring along...criminals, terrorist".
"That's not all I heard", Mihawk continue, "I was inform by the host that if there were a next season, then their match up of new contestants would consist with some member of other Straw Hats".
"So there's more coming their way?" The samurai one asked.
"Yes".
"intriguing", The hat one comment, "It seems after all this time of searching, one of them is openly competing on a game show without any of us notice".
"Tsk, if you ask me this sounds like the most dumbest decision one of those morons ever make", The Marine Admiral remark.
"And now that we know that there's more coming their way, perhaps we should act now", The samurai one said.
"What do you suppose we should do?" The round one asked, "Simply hire a secret agent to spy on them?"
"I was thinking something more than that", The blond one said, getting their attention, "If the show want ratings, perhaps we should send in one of our own to compete".
"What are you saying?"
"I'm saying, using secret agents would likely put us in some turmoil if it backfire", He said, "We would be seen in a bad light, if one of our own were spying on a harmless TV show from the outside world. This could put us in a deep controversial state if we go with that plan".
"So your suggesting we use one of our own to compete alongside the Straw Hats", The round one asked, "And allow he or her to gain some info out of one of the pirates without the need to be seen or arouse suspicious among the viewers, is that what you trying to tell us here?"
"Yes".
"Hmm...perhaps it does sound like a possible solution", The samurai one said then asked Mihawk, "You, is there some slot allowing more contestants to compete?"
"I assume so. He did told me the slot is still unfinished".
"Then perhaps we shall decide who will compete".
"I think we should choose Smoker", The round suggest, "He seem the type to go after the Straw Hats wherever they go".
"Unlikely", The hat one said, "He's too rough edge and would likely arouse more suspicious among it contestants".
"Not to mention", The samurai one said, "He seem to have a soft spot for them so we can't choose him".
"What about Garp?" The hat one asked.
"Not a chance", The tall one replied, "Again, just like him he seem to have a soft history with one of them, particularly the captain. If the captain compete, then likely it will be harder for our plan to succeed due to Garp and the Captain history".
"Then who will we send out?" The round one asked all of them, "We have enough toughest members in our organization. Surely there must be one that will do the task".
As everyone think for whom they will send out to compete, the blond one took notice at the admiral. The admiral looked back at him, expecting some response for staring at him.
After a long moment of silent, the blond finally said, "I suppose we should send one of our admirals, Akainu".
The exception to Mihawk, everyone were shock to hear that, even the admiral himself was stunned for a little bit.
"Him? Why him?" The round one asked.
"Surely you do know he's way too important for us to let go, correct?" The samurai one asked too.
"I know", The blond one said, "But he is one of the strongest in our organization. He's the most efficient and loyal. He's the likely chance to get further into the game and gain more info from the Straw Hats with his skills and attitude. It a risky move on my part, but what choice do we have? We need someone stronger and capable of making it through this, no matter the cost".
"Hmmm...then perhaps we should send him", The tall one said, as much as they do not want to let go one of their most loyal admiral they were left with no option.
He turn to Akainu and asked, "What do you think? Are you up to the task, Admiral?"
"If it means getting me near the Straw Hats, then...yes. I'l take up the job".
( Elsewhere, in a part of Washington state ).
On a road somewhere in a unknown town, Hamstervial was walking on the road, right beside Winston.
"Blah! This is humiliating!" Hamstervial shouted, "I should've been more critical on my chose for a shuttle. But noooooo, I have to be in such a rush. And look at me now, stuck on this Earth that isn't the same, and now I'm stuck with this...thing.
As they were walking, they stopped by a voice referring to them, "Then perhaps there is a chance I could turn your disappointment to something more...special".
"Huh? Who said that?" Hamstervial asked, turning around left and right.
"Right down here".
They looked down to see Mister Mind grinning at them, "I have a special offer for the two of you. One that will surely benefit us all".
"You? A worm?"
"My appearance may deterred you, but rest assure I am much more than a joke", Mister Mind told him, "I know everything that will happen, and everything will happen very soon from here on out".
( In Milk Town ).
A celebration party is happening in the saloon itself where bounty hunters, pirates criminals, saboteurs, and mercenaries hang out and enjoy themselves.
Everyone was cheering, drinking themselves, dancing among each other, and laughing among each other.
Music is being played in the background, as the party became more and more reckless, with some throwing bottles, others throwing fights, and some collapsing and falling into a deep sleep.
There are even some using their laser gun and tommy gun to shoot up the place in a drinking, partying state.
In one of the booth include three figures known among these men and woman. They are infamous by their reputation.
From left to ride, it consist of a lobster with one claw and a mobster hat, as well as having a cigar.
Next to him is a man dress in a pimp outfit with long, black fur coat, has black hair that is cover on by a long, flat hat, has pale skin and clad with a black lipstick and black nails. He's also smoking through a long cigarette holder.
To his left sat a girl, who seem to be related to a Black Hole species. She seem to clad herself in a 1920s flapper dress, with shirt skirt and long, black boot. She also has hear that covers her entire eye. She seem to be eating some beef.
"I say, it seems our dear Captain Ironbeard has been presume capture by the authority", The skinny, pale man comment in a flamboyant way after reading a newspaper.
"Capture alive or barely brain dead?" The lobster asked.
"I don't know. By the photo itself, it seems he may still be alive, regardless or not if his body is in tact", The pale man then asked the woman next to him, "What do you think, Void Sux?"
"I think he still function", She replied, shy and timid, "I see him in battles a lot and not a single scratch ruin him".
"Well then, if he still function", The Lobster said, "Then perhaps he can still break out on his own, then. There's no way you, Pale Tommy, and me would want to break him free. Even if we are partner to him".
"Agree", Pale Tommy said, "We may be allies but we not willing to put our lives on the line for this gentlemen. Oh well, let's hope this time the execution date for him will continue. I'm thinking bringing a raspberry steak for the event".
"SIR! IRON LOBSTER! THERE'S SOMEONE OUTSIDE THAT CRASH HERE!" One of the men shouted, causing everything to stopped and causing the attention being gain from the three of them themselves, "You got to see this!"
Much confusion, much startle, much intrigue. They all head out to see what happen. None of them heard a single sound of a crash, as due to the world itself being lack of sound.
As the three of them head out first, they see what to them is a familiar face.
From the huge crack on the ground stood a figure cover in smoke. Black smoke.
Soon the smoke being to swirl, as tons of black pollens begin swirl out of control, causing everyone to back away. Sure, a pollen doesn't seem harmful but to them and to everyone, they knew who this man is and what these pollens are capable of.
All of them were already stunned by who has crash into this place, but to the three ones they were not. Instead, they were a little surprise, even.
After the smoke was clear, the figure finally reveal itself.
It was a man. A man with an expose chest, revealing scars and bruises. He seem to be the same species to Void Sux, based off it pale skin and pure black hair. It hair was long and spikey. It right eye is entirely black. He has a thin, curly mustache and a short, goatee beard. He is clad with a long, grey coat with fur on it. He wears shaggy pants and boots. His left arm was a long, black hook, dripping black blood. He also has black horns.
They all knew who he is immediately, and as they jaw all dropped by the sight of it, with the exception to the big three the figure itself begin to laugh out loud.
A laughter that is known to many that suffer under the hands of his hook and his pollens.
"It...it...it can't be", One of the men in the crowd mutter.
Then another man mutter, confirming what they all think of this, "It is. It Simffuring. The infamous mobster and pirate in the universe".
"Not to mention, the most powerful Black Hole", Another man said, "Only rival to his adoptive son, Sardonyx".
"Uhh...we kinda already know that, guys", The other man told them, "Why are you guys spurring out expedition?"
"I have return! Boys! Return from my imprisonment!" Simffuring shouted, raising his fist and hook in the air, "No longer am I non-exist in this world! Instead, I am back and back to gain what I have lost many eons ago!"
He then turned his attention to the three ones that stood before him. The ones that do not show fear or shock.
Still grinning and still glancing toward him, he once more said, "Ah! My three favorite allies! Iron Lobster! Pale Tommy! And Void Sux! Gather the rest of my gang! I am going to rebuilt my foundation, reputation, and business first, then...we'll get back on the ones who had not only humiliate me, but disgrace me".
"But sir...wouldn't that likely failed again?" Void asked.
"Not this time. I've already train myself enough after I was free. And now that I'm ready, I'm ready to take on anything! And no one will get in my way!" He shouted, then proceed to shout in the sky itself, as he proclaim to it, "GJIRA! ZACH XIGMA! I'M COMING FOR YOOOOOOOU!"
( Elsewhere, on Brimstar ).
Inside the transformation throne room, a drunk Yes man is seen slithering and dancing while holding a root bear bottle.
He seem to be enjoying himself, after the capture of Mon*star.
He slither around, whistling to himself until he came upon the steps from which it descend upon the throne of Mon*star.
Everything in the room was empty. There were members of his gang in sight, only Yes man.
He take another sip, sitting on the steps and remark, very joyfully, "No more orders. No more orders, yes, yes. I am no longer just simply the Yes man. Instead, I'm...uhhhh...THEEE Yes man. Yes, yes, that sounds good".
But unknown to him, his celebration didn't last long, as Mon*star descend onto his throne. Seeing Yes man not noticing him, he shouted at him to get his attention, which startle him, "YES MAN! WHAT ARE YOU DOING SLACKING OFF HERE?!"
"Ah! Boss! I-I didn't you would escape from your prison".
"Do you really expect me to stay there? No!" Mon*star shouted, a he is seen holding a bounty poster, freshly new with no rip or holes on it.
He begin to step down and head to a passage in which Yes man follow him.
"Yes, yes, my apology, Mon*star", Yes man said, "I should've dispatch your gang to free you, boss. My apology".
"Don't apology, you slime", Mon*star told him, as they head to a room on the right, entering which shows tons of bounty with each bounty having different amount and each having different person and photo on this bounty, "I'm more angry on the ones who ruin my scheme'.
As he put the bounty on the wall, he then order Yes man, "Yes man! Send out a copy of this to every system! Now!"
"Yes! Boss! Yes! Yes!" Yes man comply, as he slither his way out of there.
As Mon*star leaves, it reveal the new bounty that he put up.
Chris Mclean.
Along with his face were other countless bounty's, each still relevant to this day. There's even a bounty on Gine and Reg, with their bounty being much more greater than Chris.
( Elsewhere, in space ).
The white firework was still shooting in this empty abyss of space itself.
As it stream across it, a thundering crack can be seen and heard.
A crack begin to form. A small crack, as it begin to grow bigger and bigger, as every pieces of stars and space matter itself shatter, making way for the dark light sparking out of there.
Once the flying firework exploded, the crack finally shatter, revealing a black figure flying straight out of there with it screeching voice and it hand reaching out, revealing a black ring that is spurring out black light from it.
The figure may be known to few but to some who know him, he is simply known as...Black Hand.
( Inside the Blood Bird vessel ).
Joco and Zolarray are walking through the red hallway.
It wasn't empty, as many soldiers, officials, and many more moved around, either slowly and rapidly.
They pass by these two bounty hunters, as they made their way to a door.
The door open, revealing nothing but a pitch black room, only it has not entirely consume the entire room, with a figure standing there watching through a window, possibly showing the construction of weaponry.
The figure in question doesn't seem to be a Blood Bird member, as his attire seem entirely a yellow and red jumpsuit with a mask he's wearing.
He crossed his arm, not looking back at them as he asked them, "Well...did you got her, boys?"
"We were unsuccessful, Professor Zoom", Joco replied, "It would seem there were...setbacks".
"Hmm...really then? And what kind of setbacks?"
The two bounty hunters look at one another, with some hesitation to respond.
Eventually, Zolarray responded, "Some kid and a turtle guy from Total Drama kinda prevent us from capturing her, sir".
"Oh..".
"You want us to go after them, sir?"
"No, I no longer need your help...for now", After Professor Zoom said that, the two bounty hunters left, out of confusion but at the same time, not wanting to bother him.
Just then, Professor Zoom begin to collapse on his knees, pressing his hands on his chest as his entire body was glitching out for a second.
He can feel the pain within him, as he breath heavily, "I...gotta...find...it...I can't exist like this".
As if things couldn't be more stressful for Zoom, a figure appear from the shadows.
The man wore entirely in black with a long coat, pants, and boots. He has pale skin and hair, and wears glasses that contains Rorschach's.
"Has your objective been completed, Professor?", The man asked, with both his hands tucked inside his coat pockets.
"No...I still need some time", He replied, "Celebi is still out there, I need some time to figure out how to get it. So don't try to rush it, Agent Judgement. I'm trying the best I could".
"Do not make any excuse for the slow progress, Zoom", Agent Judgement said, "If you want support from the organization, they are expecting you to ensure no setbacks, Zoom and expect the plan to be going through naturally".
"Patient, Judgement", Zoom said, "We both have our main objective. So why not go and bother someone else like Baron".
"Baron is out of commission for a moment. In the meantime, we expect for you to come up with a strategy on capturing this Pokemon", He said, as he descend back to the shadows, before saying, "Do remember that we do not tolerate failures".
And after he has left, it leaves Zoom alone. pondering on what to do next. On how to capture that legendary Pokemon for himself.
( Inside a hidden base ).
Two men are playing chest inside a dark room, lit by the white light beam that rain down onto their game.
A door open from behind, as a figure enter the scene. It was the same bus driver from before, who help Aqua and her friends to get to Washington state.
And as he made his way to them, it reveal even more that the face of the driver is simply a mask, as he remove it to reveal a metal head.
The figure sitting in a chair, asked him, "So how's your trip from Neveda to Washington been going, Chameleon?"
"Blah, it was terrible", He replied, "First, I was kick by that slut, then I sat next to that same annoying pest and then once, I have to deal with her after she jump out of the bus. It was awful. The payment better be worth it".
"Don't worry about my friend. All of your expeensives will soon be made", He said, then asked him, Did you make sure our Spide friend didn't notice anything...unusual?"
"No...it seems he was too distracted with something else. Something that you and your friend may need to look into this".
"Good. You may leave, Chameleon...for now".
As Chameleon left, it leaves the man alone with another figure sitting in front of him. Both still playing chest in the darkness.
"I see that you still kept a good eye on the Parker fellow, Mister Osborn", The figure in the front remark.
"I need to make sure that web head doesn't find out I'm still alive", Osborn told him, "You understand, do you?"
"Of course. Why would I? After all, I too am hiding out without Shield noticing it".
"Then perhaps we should move on with our next objective. What do you say? Baron Strucker?"
"Indeed", The shadowing figure said, then standing up and shouted, all while saluting, "HAIL HYDRA!"
As he announces it, around the surrounding room were other men, doing the exact same thing as he did, "HAILY HYDRA! HAIL HYDRA! HAIL HYDRA!"
( Elsewhere on a desolated planet ).
A firework has happen by the shooting spark itself. And as it exploded into many bits, it rain upon the planet itself with ruin cities and corpses everywhere, spread out like a field.
A battle has been fought here. A battle end with everyone dying by the hands of a gang.
A gang simply goes by the name of the Black Hole mercenaries.
They were all partying in a campsite near their ship, all laughing and drinking with Sardonyx remarking, "Man, what a bunch of pussy this planet was. Can't believe that an advance civilization were really that dumb to think they could defeat us".
"Ahaha! And to think, they suppose to be the intelligent one", Condeir said, "Ha! What a bunch of morons!"
"Totally idiotic", Mother Hollow added, not removing her attention from her phone.
"Say, what should we do next, boss?" Deathtime asked him, "Should we go and take a little visit to some of our buddies? back at home"
"Uhh...I don't know", Sardonyx replied, "After everything I have done like screwing with politicians and destroying a planet , I think I need some nappy time. From all the fighting we all endure I think we deserve some what of a small break".
"Perhaps, but perhaps not yet, my friend", A voice is heard among them.
They all turn and saw a woman standing in front of them from behind a portal. It wasn't a woman native to this planet.
No, it was the Baroness. The second in command of Cobra.
Much to their confusion, Sardonyx is the first question her, as he stood up and approach her without a single care of wariness.
"Uhh...who the hell are you?" Sardonyx asked her, "Are you a bounty hunter or something?"
"No, the name is Baroness", Baroness introduce herself, as she pulled out a laptop to show it to them by opening it up, "I came from Earth itself. Aka, I am a agent to Cobra".
The Cobra symbol appear on screen, showing the allegiance she serve from.
"Cobra? Wait a minute, are you guys from the terrorist organization with a whiny leader?" Sardonyx asked her.
Much to her painfully state, she nodded and said, "Yes, you are correct. Cobra has seen your action and were quite intrigue by your reputation. As a result, I am here to offer you a partnership with Cobra".
"Really now?" Sardonyx then asked, out of pure curiosity, "But what do we get?"
"You'll get a total of amount of credits. Stolen credits to be precise".
"Hmm...that does sound like an offering", Sardonyx said, "Alright. Since I got nothing else to do, I'll accept this partnership".
"Wait, really?" This surprise Deathtime and the others, as they were not expecting for Sardonyx to accept this deal from a small organization that they would deem kinda a waste of time.
"You aren't serious", Ibich asked.
"I am being serious, guys", Sardonyx then asked them, threateningly, "Do you guys got a problem with that?"
They all look among each other and without any word, Sardonyx understood they have made their choice, much to his pleasing mind of his, "Good. Now what's our deal for us to work with you? Baroness?"
"Simple. You'll be fighting along with us against our sworn enemy...Chirs Mclean".
( Meanwhile, in Apokolips ).
Darkseid.
The nature of all evil. A god who stood on the balcony, watching as the planet he had rested on combust once more into smoke and flames, seeing his slaves work tiredly, as he stand there and watches.
He is a tyrant to many, a god to many, and a force of nature to many. He has no time to show any remorse, nor shame. He is without shame.
No pity is shown, nor any sign of emotion.
His attention is caught, however, by a firework in the sky. He wonder if it another attack by the New Gensis residents.
Maybe, maybe not. He wasn't sure.
Just as he continue to stare the sight of it, his servant to his god like structure came to him. He is tall, wore a robe and a hood, and seem to have a type of armor on him.
Darkseid took notice of him and asked, "What is it, Desaad?"
"Darkseid, we've seem to locate a new power source that could potentially bring down New Gensis".
"Really? Are you sure?'
"Yes, Lord Darkseid", Desaad replied, "I have done the usual scanning on Earth, and I manage to detect a...odd energy...coming from a rock".
"Interesting. Do you suppose it".
"Another Anti-Life equation. I believe not, my lord. It seem to be connected to...someone that goes by the name of...Chris Mclean".
This new power mention by his servant intrigue the god, as he order Desaad, "Keep spying on this Mclean one, Desaad. And report back for any further detail".
"Yes...lord Darkseid", He bow and left, leaving Darkseid alone to himself.
Staring up in the red, blood sky itself.
( On Third Earth ).
Back in the lair of Mumm ra, Pumyra appear to him, as he overlook the parade to his army and production of new weaponry and machinery.
She bow to him, with her master not looking back at her.
"I'm all ready, Mumm ra", Pumyra said, "When can be off?"
"When the time comes, my dear. For now, ensure everything you have packed will be enough for the journey you will endure".
Pumyra nodded, as she disappear back into the darkness.
Another figure appear from the darkness as well, only this time it was created by Cherieng.
She appear before him, not bowing but merely remarking, sarcastically, "Oooh the young, always listening the old of time itself. She seem the type to work for me, if I was known to her before".
"I am grateful you have arrive", Mumm ra replied, moving on with Cherieng failure, "I see your plan has failed you, once again".
"Completely, Mumm ra", Cherieng said, dropping the grinned as bother by it, then moving on with a different subject, "Get to the point".
"I have a new assignment for you. One I'm hoping to expand my...", Mumm ra quickly correct himself, "our empire".
"And that is?"
After a moment of silence, Mumm ra grinned and replied, "I need you to find Gjira and Namora, and bring them to me".
This surprise Cherieng, but at the same time was completely furious. She knew them, and she knew how much she hated them before, despite her enjoying tormenting them and mocking them, "You want me...to-"
"Is there a problem?" Mumm ra cut her off, waiting for a response.
But instead of backing down and refusing to do his biding, Cherieng answer back with the following, "...no, no problem at all. It will be done...soon".
As much as she didn't want to, she must comply if she's going to remain loyal to Mumm ra.
After she disappear in a cloud of smoke, this left Mumm ra now alone, watching his army grew in front of him, as he pet Ma-Mutt next to him.
( Back on Earth ).
Chris stood there, remain there in total frozen shock.
It was at this moment that Chris predictions were true, and that there will be a new season coming up this soon.
As he stood there, dropping the phone he turned around to face the camera, giving out one more announcement to the viewers, "Welp, it seems we have a new season coming this year. With new contestants and old contestants coming this way, we can be certain that there's going to be tons of drama! Tons of action! Tons of comedy! And most of all..TONS OF EXTREME EXCITEMENT! So stay tune for this next season called...TOTAL! DRAMA! TRAINWRECK EXPRESS!"
After he is finish, Blue girl tug his shirt, getting his attention, "Awww, yes Blue girl?"
Without a respond, she pointed at something behind him. And as Chris turn, he can see why her reaction was...pure fear itself.
"Ooooh...crud", His eyes were beholden by the wave of boiling water heading to his way.
And before they could react...
SPLASH!
( Cutting somewhere else... ).
"Well, it seems everyone has return", Mister Voice said, as some of the villains from the previous meeting appear on screen.
Dick Dastardly appears, looking all bruise up and cast up, as he is laying in bed in a hospital.
Jose appear.
Cobra Commander appears.
The Monarch appears.
Tomura appears
Bondrewd appears.
"I hope everyone manage to get code", Mister Voice said, "Wait a second, where's Muzan and Mon*star at?"
"No idea", Tomura replied, "I'm guessing they quit".
"Quit?! Why?!"
"Oh I don't know", Tomura sarcastically told him, "Maybe this has something to do with this F**KING PLAN OF YOURS!"
"Oh...just great", Mister voice shouted, "Did any of you get the code?"
"The code? Hell no, I got no code!" Monarch shouted, "I was literally humiliated by some fat kid, then I have to survive through a wreckage of a ship, and then I got torpedo out of there. Next thing I know, I was in a sewage underneath Washington DC! How the hell did I got there!"
"And I was send somewhere in Africa!" Muzan said, "Luckily it was in my world, but I have to figure out how to get back to my home. Did you know how tiresome was for me to walk back there!"
"None of you got the code?!" This enrage Mister Voice, "What about you?! Dick! Did you got it?!"
"Uhhh...no, I was...umm...I was going to get it...but there were some...terrible incident that happen to me", He replied.
"What about you? Jose, Bondrewd, and Cobra Commander? Did you got it?"
Cobra Commander replied, with a whine, "Noooooooo! I did not! I was this close! This cloooossssseee!"
"I didn't got it because I had to join along a group", Bondrewd replied, casually, "Needless to say, it wasn't bad".
"It-it was Cybersix fault", Jose replied, "She ruin everything for me! Including her new friends!"
"You got to be kidding me! Mister Voice exclaim, "Without the code, none of our plans will succeed! All this meeting and for what! A waste of time!"
"Hey! It your fault for wasting our time, whoever you are", Muzan pu the blame on him.
"Whoever am I? I'm the one who bring you all here to this bidding! And since all of you fail! I'll have no choice but to-"
Suddenly, the screen begin to glitch, much to the surprise to the voice itself, "What the hey? What's going on here! Hey! Hey! HEEEEEY!"
Soon the screen turn black, revealing itself to be a computer, and revealing the true identity of the figure itself to be...
A kid...a small kid who is in his room, living with his mom. And the kid name is...Belson.
"Oh no...no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no!" Belson shouted, shooking his head, as he proceed to hit the computer with his fist, "Come on! Come on! You got to be kidding me! Mom! My computer isn't working!"
"Oh really, honey?" The mom voice can be heard to him, as he continue to hit it, much to his anger, "Well..don't worry, I'll get someone to go and fix it".
"I want it fix now!" He groan and shouted, attraction the attention of another kid entering the room who goes by the name of Clarence.
"Hey Belson, I just heard you were playing a fun game. Can I join?"
"What? No! Get out of here!"
Inside of a base, somewhere unknown parts of the USA itself, a general is walking through a hallway.
A dark, green and gray lit hallway, as he walk by, he passeing through every doors and every agents and workers, until finally meeting someone that he was going to meet.
Amanda Waller to be precise.
She stood there, finishing her phone call. Then she turned around and see the general, asking him, "Well?"
"We got info on you the kid side mission", The general report back, "Apparently the kid...lost and has lost half of your...employers".
"Well that's good to hear", She said, turning around and walking forward.
The general asked about the report itself, asking her, "I don't understand the deal with using some random child to do the work. We could've hire any of our men".
"And arouse government official involvement", Amanda replied, "Not a chance. He's mostly needed to confirm my assumption. And I was correct by that".
"You mean it confirm the host of that show stole half of government property?"
"Not just that", Amanda said, as she continue, "I want to confirm my suspicious of wether or not if this whole real event is happening, and I was correct by that. You see, I lately receive dreams of the future. I seem to remember everything in detail, and once that kid capture me I believe it was time to do some experiment with that knowledge".
"What are you saying?"
After a long walk through the hallway, they stopped near a door as Amanda Waller finished, "I'm saying, we may be entering in a new timeline of events, general".
As soon as she open the door, it reveal itself to be a maximum security prision, with them entering above the metal bridge itself, as they look down to see the center square of it.
Down there were Four glass prison cubes. On the top left shows a man, dressed in a 17th century clothing as he scream and bang the glass door with his fist, cussing out words that are related to old religious beliefs.
On the top right shows a girl crawling around and curl up, with her entire body being made up of a white fur.
On the bottom left shows a man drawing egg like symbol on the walls with a marker. His head resemble an egg, and his entire body is cover with a white suit and pants.
And to the bottom right shows a man sitting down, laughing to himself as gas cover the entire box.
"The government officials want me to get rid of them", Amanda comment, "Then I guess this is the perfect time to do so, anyways. Did you transport the selective prisoners for our...new objective".
"Yes, I manage to secure the ones you have order", The general replied, "KGBeast, Deathstroke, Cheetah, and the rest. I also contact with your...new advisory".
"Good...that will be all, general".
And that is all, folks. The end. The conclusion to this insane ride of a fanfic.
I hope everyone were satisfied, disappointed, or whatever you guys thought of to this finale! Sure, there were things I could've done better, things I could've add, but you know what!...it a finale that I must end it on. And boy, did we did it.
To be honest, it was really hard to choose which one of them will win, as both of them are endure a lot and both of them kinda deserve the money in some way. But after some time, I decided to pick Eddy, since he's the one who kinda avoided all types of drama and conflict that happen on the show, and I thought that would be perfect. So yeah, Eddy is now the winner so good luck for him, I guess.
As for the huge plot twist to the Fight for the Fanfic side story...BAM! It was a Clarence twist all this time, folks! Yep, totally a huge shocker right there. Okay, to be all seriousness, I really didn't expect for me to go down this path to be honest. So to everyone who were expecting something...sorry.
Anyways let's move from that huge disappointment, it seems we have a lot of stuff enstore for next season. Lots of action, drama, and most of all...LORE. There's going to be a lot of things happening for next season, and I have lots of plans for that. Like lots of them.
By these preview, you can tell things are not going to be easy for next season. Things are going to be much insane and much crazier before. But I also will say, there will be a lot of new challenges for our new contestants to face. And trust me, these challenges makes the challenge in Cruise tame.
Now I must discuss about my other three spinoffs. Don't worry, they aren't cancelled. They are still interconnected and I do have plans for those shows, so don't worry about it.
The next chapter for next season will come out first, and after that I'll resume work on my other spin off, but in the mean time I got some work to finish. Some involving my other fics to those who are still checking them out.
I thank to everyone who suggested these challenges and characters in the first place. I couldn't do this without you guys so thanks you. I also want to thanks for the characters submission for next season.
