Aftermath I: A Storm's a Brewing
Here we go! My first aftermath. I'm giving a heads up it'll be shorter than my regular chapters, but these will be more of a nice breather in between episodes. Also, I'd recommend reading the end message I have as well, because I have a big announcement to commemorate my series nearby anniversary.
TheMasterKat: Truly, a battle of the brains will be quite the conflict. I'm sorry about Spinel. Man, first Katakuri, then Mae, and now this? I feel terrible when people tell me their favorite characters are out. But the next time we see the cast, the guys especially better brace themselves. (Except Deadpool)
1602jaw: What villain doesn't love cheating? Too bad DIO missed out. Finally, I've overcome lots of obstacles, and now, we can continue on. I hope you're excited to see the others today.
NondescriptNorbert: Yeah, Miu is probably the most offensive character here, but she doesn't care. The team swapping was deliberate for the plot. And I'm glad you liked what I did with Sora. I want those underutilized characters to shine more.
Guest/CDW: These are some pretty interesting ideas. I'll keep them in mind.
TheHiddenAuthor5000: Hey, thanks for the good rating. But this story is only a small way through, so maybe that rating will go up a bit?
That guy: I just basically doomed them. This is not gonna be pretty for them.
Guest: That's a good guess, but I got something else planned.
ThelastCyberKnight: These minigames were a nice fun little break from the dark and crazy stuff that's soon going to unfold. I do wonder who will win the bet.
Ortizale317: Who knows?
MasterSaixus: Hey, it's all cool. I'm just glad you're liking it so far.
EndeavorT: We may even go to the worlds of characters that didn't even get to compete this time. But not everybody will get their world shown.
Guest: Hmm. Some funny detective hijinks, huh? I'll keep this in mind.
Happiness studios: I'm sorry you don't like it. This is something I've been thinking and planning over for a while. I did foreshadow this pairing a little bit before, but the last thing I want to do is rush it. Isabelle liked Waluigi for a long time, even before the game started. Befriending him was just step one. Next step: become very close friends.
A'ight. Let's get our first aftermath show going!
XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX
We open outside a dressing room. A man outside the door knocked a few times.
"Ms. Magne. It's almost time. Are you ready?"
"Yep. Just about."
"Awesome. You guys are gonna kill it out there."
Inside, we see a familiar face. A tall, female demon, with long blonde hair, pure white skin, rosy cheeks, and dressed in a pink tuxedo, looking at herself in a mirror. She was busy adjusting the clip on microphone on her ear.
"Looks about right." She said to herself. "Let's get this show going."
Once she was finished, she walked out of her room, and headed towards a dressing room from across the hall. Inside that room, we see a large, muscular and imposing figure, crouched down in the room. He had short and spiky crimson hair, wore a torn leather jacket with "CHARLOTTE" on the back. He had dark gloves, pants, and spiked boots with spurs. The most notable thing about him was his sharp fanged mouth with scars on both sides of his face.
And what was he doing? Crouched down in his tiny room, he held a phone between his thumb and forefinger, and looked a bit miffed and confused. (They don't have traditional phones in his world like we do. They use snail telephones called Den Den Mushis. Weird, I know)
"Yes, I'd like to order two hundred donuts, specially made, chocolate frosting, rainbow sprinkles, with a cream filling." He said over the phone. The person on the other end said something, and he got annoyed.
"What do you mean, 'What event am I hosting?" It's called "I'm going to eat two hundred donuts." That make more sense to you?"
There was a knock at his door to which he replied "I'll talk to you later."
He goes to the door and walks through it to see Charlie standing there.
"Ready to get this started?" Charlie asked.
"I guess….." Katakuri said hesitantly.
"What's wrong?"
"Just a bit nervous about doing this. This kind of stuff is more your thing."
"It'll be fine." Charlie told him. "Chris wouldn't have given us a job like this if he didn't think we could handle it. Plus it pays really well."
"I guess you're right." Katakuri said, adjusting the microphone on his ear. "I thought they would've kept those other guys to do this job. What were their names? Geoff and Bridgette?"
"Yep. But maybe we can do just as good of a job as them. We are the dream team"
One of the backstage crew workers walks up to them.
"Mr. Charlotte, Ms. Magne, right this way."
The both of them are led to a huge blue curtain. Behind it, loud cheers from the audience could be heard, cheering their names.
Taking a deep breath, Charlie said. "I guess this is it. Are you ready, Katakuri?"
"Only if you are."
"THEN IT'S SHOWTIME!"
Stepping out, holding their hands, these two hosts step out from behind the curtain as the crowd goes wild.
The theme song for the show plays as clips from the previous episodes are shown in a slideshow.
We flash to Cairo.
"My team is filled with a bunch of idiots!" Followed by Katakuri taking the drop. "Guess I shouldn't have been surprised. If this is how it is, so be it."
Then we flash to Antarctica.
"No way, missy!" JFK said. "This punk is gonna learn that I'm top dog here!" Followed with Kiryu punching him, and then taking the drop.
Next was New York.
"I still feel like it's my fault, somehow." Charlie mumbled, then moving to her elimination.
Then it was UA High.
"Do you want to see true power?! Tatsumaki yelled. "Well, all of you metal nuisances are gonna get it!" To which, we see the esper take her leave off the show.
After that, it was the Amazon.
"Karma's gonna hit you like a train, you little shit." Mae said as she was hauled into an ambulance.
Lastly, we finish in the Caribbean.
Let's do it again, sometime!" Spinel said as she hopped out of the plane.
Once that all ends, the crowd explodes as Charlie and Katakuri step onto the scene, waving to the crowd. Since the last time it was used, the place had some pretty nice renovations done to it. The studio looked red, with blue velvety curtains. Above, the Total Drama Infinite logo was displayed. There were two huge, purple sofas, with one of them for the hosts. The both of them sit down on one of them as the crowd's noises die down a little bit.
"Hello to all you Total Drama fans!" Charlie exclaimed. "Welcome to the amazing Total Drama Infinite 2 Aftermath Show! I'm Charlie."
"And I'm Katakuri, though you all know that by now.
"Here, we can kick back and chill with some old faces or previously eliminated competitors, look back on what has happened in the past few episodes, and answer fan questions.."
"Not to mention the fact that we've got some great bonus content that you're only gonna find here!"
"So what do you all say?!" Charlie asked the crowd. "Are you all ready for quite the show?! Because we got quite a bit to talk about."
More cheers erupt from the audience.
A nearby voice said, "Hey! Did you two forget something?"
Katakuri grinned a little bit. "Trust me, we'd never forget you guys. That's right, people! We've got everyone from last season here, too."
A curtain came up, and we saw everyone who competed last season, sitting together in a group. The crowd cheered as they waved to everyone.
"That's right." Charlie said. "Say hello to Geralt, Elena, Nicole, Popo, Nana, King Harkinian, the Nomad, Mercy, and Dororo."
"Say hi to the crowd, guys!"
The peanut gallery waves, except for Geralt, who just politely nods.
"Don't be like that." Charlie said to the witcher. "Show a little bit of enthusiasm."
"I am." Geralt said bluntly.
"Oh. Wait a minute." Katakuri said, taking notice of the group. "It looks like we're missing someone. Where's Russel?"
"Oh, we got a special job for him."
Another curtain rises from the other side of the stage. We see Russel sitting there, behind his drums, with a few people with him.
One of them was a tall, lanky fellow with blue spiky hair, and eyes that were completely white, behind a keyboard.. The other guy was a man with nasty green skin, black hair, with eyes of different colors, and wore an upside down cross necklace, holding a bass with him. The last one was a young woman with short black hair, a short dress, boots, and a katana strapped to her back. With her, she had a guitar.
The crowd went more insane than they had before when they saw them. Not only was the famous Russel Hobbs here, but now there were his bandmates Murdoc Niccals, 2-D, and Noodle were here.
"Russel brought his band, Gorillaz, with him for some musical accompaniment for the show!" Charlie said.
"Hate to break it to ya, toots…" Murdoc said. "But this is my band. Not Noodle's, not Face-Ache's, and definitely not fatass' over there. Just thought I'd clear that little tidbit up."
"You better watch what you say before I knock yo ass unconscious again." Russel threatened in the most passive aggressive way possible.
"Quite impressive you managed to get these guys on the show." Katakuri said to Charlie.
"Well, Russel didn't need much convincing. We both have a love for music, and it helps when one of his bandmates is a Satanist. I thought some music would spice things up."
"Thank you so much for having us, Charlie-san." Noodle said. "I'm looking forward to this."
"Yeah, I'm looking forward to this as well." 2-D added.
"Bottom line is, this'll really be good publicity for the band." Russel said. "So thanks again for having us, Charlie."
"My pleasure." Charlie said. She then looked over to the peanut gallery. "Before we bring out the recently eliminated competitors, I'd like to ask you guys how things have been for you since last season ended."
"It's been fine." Geralt said. "My job as a witcher has kept me quite busy. But it's a lot easier than this show."
"I feel the same." Nicole said. "I'd much rather be looking after my crazy family than what those guys are going through right now."
The Nomad, being a guy of no words, simply gave a thumbs up.
"It's been okay." Elena answered. "These past several months have given me some time to do some world traveling of my own."
"That's good to hear." Katakuri said. "Coming back home, I'll admit Mama wasn't too thrilled that I lost. She said 'How could you give up just for some little girl?! You should've just burned that entire island and never looked back'. Yeah, it was pretty much like that. Not to mention I have a lot of people that make fun of me now when I walk the streets, due to my mouth. But I don't care anymore. They know I'm strong enough to protect my family, and that I'll kill all of them if they lay a finger on them."
"What kind of home life do you live?!" 2-D exclaimed.
Very calmly, Katakuri answered with "A very toxic one."
"Anyway, back to how we've been," Dororo said. "I've been doing just great. Business has been booming."
"Business?" Charlie asked. "What kind of business do you run?"
"I've made a killing selling souvenirs from the show. We've got some leftover Pokeballs from the Pokemon challenge, the vacuum that sucked up King Boo, some the karts from the Mario Kart race, and many more."
"I'm impressed." Katakuri said. "Which leads me to a question that a fan sent in to you."
Taking out a note card, Katakuri read it out loud. "It comes from a viewer named 1602jaw. Hmm. Interesting name he's got there. Anyway, his question is, 'What did you do with the Stand arrow you stole from DIO? Who did you sell it to, and how much did you make?'"
"Oh yeah, that thing." Dororo remembered. "I sold it to some general guy. I think his name was Baron D. Grave. He collects some rare artifacts, and was gonna use it for research or something. He gave me five hundred thousand American dollars for it."
The audience gasped at the absurd amount of money.
"He paid that much?!" Russel exclaimed.
"I know." Dororo said proudly. "I used part of the money to start up this business of selling memorabilia."
"That's impressive." Charlie said with awe. "With how much you're making, I doubt you'd need the prize money."
"This kid is surely running her own empire." The King added. "Rising up in the ranks of the world."
"Things have been great for us." Popo said.
"Yeah, we got that pet polar bear we always wanted." Nana added.
"A pet polar bear, huh?" Katakuri mused. "That's interesting."
"It is. Bring him out, boys!"
Everyone on the stage and the audience freaked out as a polar that was stuck in a cage was wheeled out. The endangered predator roared and struggled to break out.
"You actually brought that thing here?!" Mercy cried.
"He's not a 'thing'." Popo said. "His name Is Fluffy!"
"Can we get him off the stage?!" Katakuri ordered. A couple of stage crew workers quickly came out and wheeled Fluffy away.
"Jesus…." Charlie gasped. "I was not expecting that."
"Aww." Nana pouted. "And we were gonna let Fluffy give out free rides. He does it for us all the time."
"Quite a relief the others weren't out here yet to see that." Nicole said.
"Speaking of which, wonder what they're doing back there?" Geralt pondered.
(Meanwhile….)
Backstage, we see JFK, Spinel, Mae, and Tatsumaki sitting on a sofa. (Mae was actually looking much better, with just her arm in a sling, with several names written on the cast.)
Tatsumaki was busy reading a book that floated in front of her, Spinel looked at the ground as she swung her feet back and forth, Mae was busy snacking on some of the cookies left for them. JFK just looked around at the females around him. They didn't really wow him.
"Er, uh, what's taking them so long?!" JFK said out loud. "Is this really the best they could do for broads around her?!"
This got him a hit in the face with the book Tatsumaki was reading.
XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX
"Anyway…." Katakuri said, trying to get back on track, "we have one more matter to attend to before we bring the others out. As a matter of fact, you and I have some questions of our own that we got." Katakuri said to Charlie. Taking out another note card, he reads it out for her.
"Well, both questions are a bit similar. This first question comes from someone named TheMasterKat. She says 'Do you regret your decision to quit the season?' The second one comes from MasterSaixus. This person asks you how strong your feelings are for me."
The audience goes silent at this. Charlie's expression quickly changes upon hearing this.
"I see." Charlie said. "This is something that I've thought about since I left the game. And I know some people weren't too happy about that. To answer the first question, I have no regrets about my choice. I let my emotions take the reins, and I was terrible to my team. I just wanted to make it up to them. And it all started because you just left without getting to say goodbye. I never expected you to leave so early and so suddenly."
"I know." Katakuri told her. "I didn't expect Aqua to make the other new guys vote for me. I know how much it hurt you. I'm sorry."
"I know, and now I want to answer that second question. How you make me feel."
Looking at her lover deep in the eye, takes a hold of his hand, and with all seriousness, speaks from her heart. "It's hard now to picture a life where you're not there. You've shown me how great humans can be at their best, and how they feel at their worst. You've been there through the happiest times, and the darkest times. You were not only a big help to me, but to our friends. You're someone I can rely on, who I feel safe around. The thing I regret was how I acted without you. That'll never happen again. Just know that to me, you are perfect, and you complete me."
The audience "awws" at this. Even their friends were feeling emotional. Katakuri had a slight flush in his face, but he tried to remain stoic. He tried to think of something to say, but didn't have much experience with stuff like this.
"I….value what you have taught me, and, uh, you are so generous in spirit. Circumstance brought us together, and choice keeps us together. My love for you is unconditional and eternal."
"Please stop!" Nana cried as she blew her nose with a tissue. "This is getting too heartwarming for us to handle!"
"Don't overload us with the gushy stuff already." Popo added.
Katakuri and Charlie smile at each other for a moment, before returning their attention to the show.
"Ahem. You're right." Katakuri said, trying to sound professional. Anyway, let's introduce our first two guests. Our first guest is a self described 'Macho womanizing stud who conquered the moon.' He's got talent, a legacy, and more 'errs' and 'uhs' than the average person, please give a round of applause….to JFK!"
The teenage clone walked onto the stage and waved at the crowd and sat at one end of the other couch.
"And our second guest is an esper with some of the strongest psychic powers around." Charlie said. "She's got a lot of pride as a hero, and she's earned it, please welcome….. Tatsumaki!"
The pro hero floated on the scene, cross armed, with a serious look on her face. She quietly sat down right next to JFK.
"Welcome to the show, guys." Charlie told them. "Glad to have you here."
"And it's great to, uh, see your pretty self again." JFK said to Charlie, giving her a sly wink.
Charlie just sighed while Katakuri looked like he wanted to hurt someone.
"I'm gonna let that one slide." Katakuri growled. "But don't try to put the moves on her. She's taken."
"Holy cow!" JFK gasped, looking up at Katakuri. Intimidation really helps when you're three times everyone's size. Sure, JFK was a tough guy, but Katakuri really scared him. "She's with you?! Look, pal, I, er, uh, don't want no trouble! I'm sorry, okay?!"
The pirate softened up a little bit at this. "Fine."
"Anyway, thanks for having us on this show, or whatever." Tatsumaki said, sounding bored as usual.
"So how have you guys been?" Charlie asked. "Feels better being here than on the plane, right?"
"Anything is better than being on that show!" Tatsumaki said bitterly. "It was cramped, cold, and the food was terrible."
"Uh, I've been doing just fine." JFK declared. "Still a bit ticked off that I, er, uh, got the boot."
"So I'm to assume you guys have caught up with the show, and are fully aware of what's happened?" Katakuri asked.
JFK and Tatsumaki nodded. "Yes, and I feel stupid for being played like a fool again."
"I'm with the loli on that one." JFK added. "That hot science broad toyed with my emotions, though I still don't like that Kiryu guy."
"That reminds me," Charlie said as she took out a couple of notecards. "We've got a couple more fan questions. One us for Tatsumaki, and the other is actually for you, Katakuri."
"Okay, Tatsumaki. This first one comes from someone named NondescriptNorbert. He asks 'After losing two seasons in a row in the same manner, have you learned anything from the experience? And if you were to appear on a future season, what would you do differently?'"
"Let's just get this over with." The psychic huffed. "I feel like such an idiot. It's bad enough that Cinder did that to me last season, but now that giant tin can Starscream tricked me. I thought I wouldn't let that happen again, but I just got careless. If I competed again, which I hope I don't, I would be more alert, and probably not get involved in anyone, or their business."
"I guess that's one way to go about it." Katakuri pointed out. "Just know you can't do everything on your own. There were times last season I needed the help of my friends. In the Christmas challenge, I would've died, had Susie not rescued me."
"Since you guys are caught up with everything, what's been the most surprising and shocking thing you've seen so far?" Charlie asked them.
"The fact that DIO is up to his tricks again." Tatsumaki quickly answered. "Someway, somehow, he always manages to somehow cause trouble, even if he's not competing."
"At least that intern job of his is giving him a back payment of karma he's owed." Katakuri said. "Though hopefully he gets caught, because he'll surely get fired.
Cries of "Down with DIO!" could be heard in the audience.
"Seems the people have spoken." Elena mumbled.
"Here's that question that was meant for you, Katakuri." Charlie asked. "This comes from ThelastCyberKnight. He says 'How does it feel knowing that JFK outlasted you?'"
"Hey, er, uh, what's that supposed to mean?!" JFK angrily asked. "Does this wise guy think I'm a joke or something?! I did a damn good job, thank you very much!"
"It makes no difference to me." Katakuri answered. "In hindsight, it'd make sense for me to go out early. My performance last season speaks for itself. I'm not bothered that this guy got just a little bit farther than me, but I'm shocked he lasted as long as he did."
"Why I oughta…" JFK grumbled, shaking his fist.
"Before we bring in our next guests, I want to ask who you guys if there's anyone left on the show you'd like to see win?" Charlie asked, trying to quickly change the subject. "The question applies to our faithful peanut gallery as well."
"Guess if I had to choose someone, it'd be Iida." Tatsumaki answered. "Just wishing luck from one hero to another. He may be quirky (no pun intended), but he seems like he knows what he's doing."
"Where do I begin?" JFK said. HR listed off many of the good looking female competitors (with the exception of Coyle). Katakuri just sighs and facepalms.
"We're rooting for Deadpool!" Popo and Nana said, holding out flags with the merc's face on them.
"Guess I'd be rooting for either Terry or Kiryu." Geralt answered. "They've got good leadership skills, and the strength to back it up."
The Nomad nods in agreement with Geralt.
"I feel Edward has a good chance to go all the way again." Mercy said.
"I gotta agree with you on that one." Dororo said. "He's got the skills to do it."
"What about Wendy?" Nicole suggested. "She won once, she can surely do it again."
"You guys are fools." The King said. "I believe Miu will win. She's quite entertaining."
"She's a bit too vulgar for my tastes." Elena said. "I really want to see Susie win. Or Glass Joe. He's got underdog written all over him."
"Well, it's good to hear everyone's thoughts." Charlie announced. "What say we bring out our other two guests?!"
The crowd roared with excitement.
"Alright." Katakuri said. "Next up, we have a college dropout who's a little lazy, has a weird outlook on life, but is a rebel in her own right and is not afraid to speak her mind. Let's introduce Mae!"
Mae steps out, waving to the crowd with her good arm.
"Next, we have the most fun loving friend you're ever gonna meet!" Charlie said. "She's a bit out there, and she's had it rough, but let's all that bounce off of her just like other things would with her rubbery body. Let's give a big round of applause to Spinel!"
The cheerful gem waves to the crowd with both arms as she sits next to Mae.
"Glad you guys could make it here." Katakuri said. "And Mae, I'm glad to see you're healing up just nicely."
"I guess." Mae said. "But I'm still pissed that this happened in the first place."
"I know." Charlie told her. "And you're not alone. Tatsumaki and JFK were also either tricked and deceived by other people. Although I felt really bad for your case."
"Yeah, Max seemed like a total jerk." Spinel said. "I can't believe he worked with DIO there for a bit."
"I got nothing against DIO, but Max is the one I hate." Mae said. "He's an effing asshat."
"How interesting." Katakuri said. "Because you got a question from a fan, Mae. This question also comes from TheMasterKat. She asks 'When you get revenge on Max, will you let me get a kick in?'"
"Hell yeah!" Mae exclaimed. "You bet. I bring the bats, and we catch him when the street lights come on. We'll break his legs!"
"That's a bit….morbid." Charlie said with shock.
"Sorry." Mae said sheepishly. "Got a bit carried away there. But I stand by it. Me and this TheMasterKat person will kick that brat's ass."
"Okay then." Katakuri said. "I see we got Mae's answer, but Spinel, how do you feel about being eliminated, and your time on the show?"
"It's not that bad." Spinel answered. "I mean, I never entered the show for the money. The Diamonds originally let me because they thought I'd make friends. I Got Deadpool, who's the best buddy around. We're like two peas in a pod. Just know I'm rooting for him all of the way."
"Should be figured as much." Charlie said. "You guys have been pretty good friends since last season. You went through a lot of hardships, but it turned out alright."
"I don't really care who wins." Mae said. "As long as it ain't that little demon, Max."
"You know, Max, Starscream, Coyle, and DIO may be problems," Katakuri said, "but I forgot to mention a bigger problem."
He stands up and points a remote to the monitor above. It shows a picture of a familiar looking woman of the buggy variety. The audience gasp all at once.
"It's the creepy lady!" Spinel exclaimed.
"Is that….Sura?!" Charlie asked. "From back in New York?!"
"Yes." Katakuri answered. "When watching the episode, something didn't sit right with me. The way she was around Edward and Rick, not to mention some of the things she said. I thought she was just a random oddball from who knows where, and then it hit me."
This time, Katakuri pulls out wanted posters from his world. As they fell on the floor, one of the posters had Sura's face on it.
"I remembered hearing the name a long time ago. I did some digging, and found out she's caused a bit of havoc in my world a long time ago. But she's far from the ringleader."
Geralt picks up Sura's wanted poster and looks at it. "Sura, the 'Infestation'. Eight billion, four hundred twenty million, seven hundred thousand berries?!" Geralt exclaimed. (Berries are what they call money in the One Piece world)
"Yes." Katakuri answered. "That's higher than mine, or mama's. Take a look at the other ones."
Charlie looks at a wanted poster with a gruff, square jawed brute in a leather jacket. "Kogus, the 'Quake'. Bounty of six billion, nine hundred eighty three million, four hundred thousand berries."
Dororo then looks at another one with a man in golden armor with a dragon motif. "King Ghido, the 'Storm.' Ten billion, five hundred seventy three million, eight hundred thousand berries. Whoop that's a lot of mulah!"
"Those three are part of a group of terrorists that create war and chaos wherever they go. Where i come from, they were only seen once, but never again. It seems their bounties are still active. But take a look at their last one."
With shaky hands, Russel picked up the last one. On it was a gruff, middle aged man with wild hair, a long moustache, scars and body armor all over. And his muscles were insane.
"Gjira, the 'Apocalyptic Renegade'. With a bounty of….Thirteen billion, six hundred sixty six million…..nine hundred thousand berries?!"
"Bloody hell!" Murdoc exclaimed. "That guy looks like he could break your face just by the poster alone!"
"What else do you know about this 'Gjira' guy?" Tatsumaki asked. "And what does it have to do with us?"
"I'm not sure." Katakuri answered. "I don't know much outside of what I said. The world government describes them as terrorists and war mongers. All I know is that Rick knows something about it, and Ed's book as well."
"Of course!" Charlie said. "Rick warned him about it when we found it in Cairo. All I know is it categorizes weird creatures and objects."
"Should we be worried?" Spinel asked.
"I don't know. For now, all we can do is watch the show, and hope everything will be alright. But seeing one of them in New York was far from a coincidence. I don't know what it could all mean, but I don't want anyone to get hurt. Even now, I worry about Wendy a little bit."
Charlie put her arm around Katakuri's. "I'm sure it'll be fine. She'll be fine. Ed will be fine. I don't want you to worry. Let's just enjoy the show, and the company of our friends."
Katakuri nods. "Alright. I'll try."
Everyone, including the audience, were silent.
"Well, uh, it looks like that's all the time we have today!" Charlie said. That's all for our first aftermath, and we can't wait to see you guys again in the next one!"
"We'll be back after the next six eliminations." Katakuri said. "Let's give a round of applause for our peanut gallery, along with JFK, Mae, Tatsumaki, and Spinel!
The audience cheers and claps.
"And don't forget to tune into the next episode of Total Drama Infinite 2!"
They were all given a standing ovation as Gorillaz played them out as the show ended.
(Later….)
Katakuri sat in his dressing room, looking over the posters with a look of worry on his stoic face.
"I hope you guys will be okay." He said to himself. "I hope it's just all in my head, but Godspeed to you all."
XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX
Well, that was quite interesting. And so, I hope that Katakuri and Charlie did a good job. There was some important info there, and it was nice to see everyone again. Now, we know a sliver of more info on Gjira. Also, I'd like to thank those that sent in questions. When we come back to the aftermath in the future, I'll still accept more questions. Who's excited for the hunt for Genocide Jack? I know I am! But before we get to that, I have something I want to say.
As I said above, this series is close to hitting the one year anniversary. I'm thankful to everyone who's stuck around all this time. This story means a lot to me, and so do all my faithful readers. That's why I hope you'll continue to enjoy it for the foreseeable future.
Well, that's it for now. Im sorry we've got to wait a little bit longer for the Serial Killer hunt, but it's gonna happen very soon. I think I've covered everything, so until next time, stay awesome and safe. This is MemeKing, signing off.
