Episode 6

Many years ago, Fire Country

Naruto's stomach rumbled as he teared up. In front of him was a dead rabbit he was forced to crush with his newfound strength. As he squirmed when he couldn't kill it with a shotty looking spear he made from some wooden branches. The child was panting as his eyes watered. The idea of killing an animal made him feel disgusted and horrible. To the point that his own breathing felt painful.

His hands shaking, face sweating, lungs feeling as if they were on fire. Naruto slowly picked up the rabbit and tried to peel it with a discarded knife he found on the road. He really felt like vomiting and yet he felt so sick. Only this time, it was as sick as someone would feel when they saw a sadistic murderer performing their hobbies. Naruto continued to pant as he watched himself continued preparing the rabbit.

For it would be his meal. With only one thing on his mind as he forced himself to do this.

"I miss you mommy." Naruto said as tears fell down his cheeks.

As he finished, Naruto knew the next step was to cook the dead animal. Yet, he started to feel a migraine as he felt his flesh harden. His nails growing and his hands looking more lizard like. Naruto sniffled as he felt his instincts become more animalistic by the second.

He did not like himself one bit. Whenever this occurred after… the incident. Naruto was starting to believe that he really was a demon.

"I don't like this. Why do bad things happen to me?" Naruto asked himself as he noticed that it started getting dark again.

Modern day

Naruto groaned as he woke up. Finding himself sitting on his chair in front of the fireplace. He sighed as he stood up. Wondering what was the next test that Chris wanted to torture his campers with.

"It must be something original." Naruto said doubting Chris would go soft any time soon unless there was a risk involved. "I see Veldora has awakened before I did." he says as he makes his way down to the entrance.

Where he stopped and looked up at a portrait of a woman. Where Naruto gently touched the painting's frame and admired it as if it were a goddess. At least what human hands and human vision could comprehend a goddess to be.

"You are likely angry at me darling, but I will never leave you." Naruto said before bidding farewell to the portrait of a spouse.

With Veldora

Veldora sprinted around the castle until he tackled himself into a doorway. He grinned as he looked up to see a seemingly annoyed little girl with pigtails in the shape of tendrils. Along with a very unique attire including a small crown at the top of her head with blue eyes and pink pupils in the shape of butterflies.

"Haha! I found you! My years of playing RPGs has yet to fail me!" Veldora yelled with great excitement.

"I dislike you and dislike your presence Veldora. Leave my library before father finds an excuse to banish you again, kashira." the girl said.

"Aw Beatrice, don't you miss me?" Veldroa asked, feigning pain.

"If I did, I would not be shuffling the position of my library every second that are here, kashira." Beatrice answered.

Veldora suddenly had a dark cloud over his head, "So mean! You, Carla and even Kanna all hate me!" he said before turning around. "Isn't there a sibling who won't ignore or belittle me?" he asked.

Beatrice sighed as she grabbed a book, "You may try and look up one of our many other siblings." she said before throwing it at his head. Ignoring Veldora cries of pain, she continued, "That is one copy of our texts that constantly keeps tabs on everyone including mother, kashira." she said.

Veldora rubbed his head in pain, "You did not need to throw it that hard!" he said before turning the page.

Where he saw a map of the world. With many, many dots and foot prints right behind them. Veldora had to squint his eyes as he looked around to have a good idea of where everyone is.

"Why are there so many people in Japan?" Veldora asked.

"Father said his previous home looked like feudal Japan. So there's no doubt, some would prefer to live there, kashira." Beatrice explained.

"Why wasn't I allowed to go to Japan!? They love giant monsters right?" Veldora asked.

"In movies you knucklehead. Although I should warn you, unlike myself, you or Anna. Not all of them remember each other and some chose to try to live generic lives, kashira." Beatrice explained.

"But I've been to every birth! I even got free days for myself away from that island just to see everyone!" Veldora argued.

"You may have a pea sized brain, but even babies cannot remember you. Then again, they may be suppressing your existence, kashira." Beatrice said making Veldora groan.

At the camp

Everyone was suddenly awakened again. Despite it being fairly late into the morning. Everyone felt as if they were forced into waking up a second time as they heard the sound of a loud bugle followed by the voice of chef.

"Listen up you cockroaches! Today you will be meeting me with your challenge today at the dock! So be there at 0900 hours!" Chef announced.

Everyone shrugged as they had no idea what Chef meant when he used military time.

"That means now!" Chef roared as everyone hussled over the beach.

Briefly looking up to see their favorite dragon hovering over them. By now, everyone would prefer to be surrounded by a ring of vultures in the Mojave desert than be at the island for this.

At the dock

Once everyone had arrived, they were met by Chef who was wearing his army greens. Along with a trademark campaign hat, normally worn by drill sergeants. Where there's a drill sergeant, you can expect a lot of screaming from someone with a lot authority and very strong vocal chords.

"Uh, where's Chris?" Courtney asked.

"Classified! Today, I will be issuing your challenge!" Chef announced. "From now until the end. Rule number 1! You will address me as Master Chief. Do you understand?" he asked.

"Yes Master Chief." everyone said as if they were still asleep.

"LOUDER!" Chef shouted.

"YES MASTER CHIEF!" everyone screams.

"Good! Rule number 2, if you are ready to give up, then you walk to the dock and ring the bell." Chef said as he pointed at the bell. "Which brings me to rule number 3. I want one quitter by the end of the day. This day will never end until someone drops out." he says adding to the brutality.

Without Chris or at least any limited screen time for Chris. There was no doubt that Chef would go for physical torture instead of mental torture like the host.

"Now that we got that out of the way. Move your butts all the way to beach! Double time!" Chef commanded as everyone sprinted as quickly as their bodies would let them.

At the beach

The two teams were met with the sight of three canoes on the sand.

"Both teams are going to going to hold these canoes over your heads. If you let go, you are eliminated and the same goes for anyone that drops them." Chef says before a red haired child arrived. "Oh good, you can lead by example." he said to the boy.

"Who's the red haired brat?" Duncan asked.

"And what's with the get up? Is this some kind swimsuit?" Geoff asked trying to tease the kid.

"This here is Masrur. He's one of Naruto's kids." Chef answered.

Duncan laughed, "Oh good, another puppy." he said making Masrur turn his gaze towards Duncan.

"Uh guys, I don't think now is a good time for jokes." Gwen said noticing that gaze.

"For once Gwen is right." Heather said noticing that look.

"Don't be so uptight Heather, he might turn into something cute." Lindsay said earning a scary glare from Heather.

"How bad could he be?" DJ asked before Masrur kicked Duncan into a tree that was over a hundred feet away. "Oh, that bad." he said realizing the issue.

"Now that you've been disciplined. A rule I want to add is you're all free to stop if Masrur drops out." Chef said as a bear appeared.

Before anyone panicked, the bear pulled out a bag of marshmallows and sat on top of the third canoe. Where Marsur proceeded to pick up the small boat with little effort. Completely shocking the entire cast as he stood there aimlessly. While the bear was not caring about anything but his snacks and the view of the ocean.

"Well? Get moving!" Chef commanded as everyone scrambled to pick up their canoes.

Three hours later

"How is he still doing that?" Owen asked as Masrur still looked so stoic and calm.

"What's wrong maggot? It's been only three hours and I only hear you complaining with the rest of the maggots." Chef said as a lot of the campers felt their pride had taken a mortal wound.

When Souma suddenly appeared, "Hey we have some extra ribs. Do you guys want any? I swear they're not my experiments." he said as he waved the food around, causing everyone to starve.

"Over here!" Owen yelled.

"No Owen, that will get us disqualified!" Trent warned.

"Can we take a lunch break Master Chief dude?" Geoff asked.

"When did I say you can have a break?" Chef asked before taking a rib for himself.

The bear even took one and continued eating while Masrur ignored him, "What about you little brother?" Souma asked.

"No, now go away." Masrur said.

"So mean, I guess I'll just leave these here. Just in case." Souma said as he put the plate on top of a nearby log.

Unaware that this added more tension as well as stress for everyone now feeling hungry. It got worse as Chris arrived and started eating them.

"Dude, these are so delcious. You guys want any?" Chris asked but was only met with glares. "No? more for me then." he said making everyone groan as he ate in front of everyone.

A few more hours later

Lindsay whimpered in pain, "This is killing my arms!" she whined.

"Don't give up yet!" Owen said trying to motivate her.

Lindsay whimpered again as she let go of the canoe, "Sorry guys." she said as she walked towards the docks and banged her head against the bell.

That signal was enough for the canoe to collapse on top of the Gophers. While the Bass threw away their canoe feeling victorious. Chef then chose to approach Lindsay and gave her what seemed to be a pep talk to make her feel better.

"It's alright girl. There's no shame in giving up." Chef said sounding sincere. Only to yell at her face, "Except for letting your comrades down! Now get out of my sight! Everyone else, to the canteen!" he commanded.

After "Dinner"

After being forced to eat garbage composed from the breakfast in the morning. The two teams found themselves at what appeared to be an obstacle course. No doubt, more physical pain would be involved and it wouldn't be the slight torture that Chef made them go through. No, that would be too easy if everyone felt too tired.

"Took you long enough, your next challenge is to go through an obstacle course. It was actually a lot smaller and I wanted it all done in under one minute." Chef said as everyone saw various nets, traps and a few sharp objects in their path. "I was going to want it done under one minute but… I decided that you all have it too easy." he said before tossing a pine cone into the mud.

"I see, it's dirty. Real bad." Duncan said sarcastically.

"Don't remind me." Heather said as she already wanted a bath.

BOOM*

"That is what you need to be made weary of." Chef said before a few spike were launched in the air. "Whoops, I triggered two traps." he said.

CLICK*

"And here's today's other guest. You know better than to show up late soldier." Chef said as he looked to find someone standing on top of one of the structures.

"Fufufu, I had to make some last minute adjustments." said a blue haired woman.

"Hey who is that?" DJ asked before covering his eyes. "Ma'am! I would kindly appreciate it if you covered your chest!" he said.

"DJ what are you… woah." Geoff said as he looked up at the blue haired woman.

The woman was beyond beautiful to say the least. Yet, there was that hidden menacing aura around her. Her lovely features were complimented by her pale skin, blue eyes, thin yet semi muscular physique. Along with an elegant army uniform that had a design that crossed over to look sexy rather than authoritative. Well a different kind of authoritative.

Although DJ was right when he told her to cover up. As the editors proceeded to put a giant censor bar around the woman's chest. As her cleavage was exposed and the size of her bosom did not help.

"Who is that?" Bridgette said not liking how most of the men are leering at her.

"I am Esdeath." Esdeath said as she jumped down. "I actually worked with Sergeant Hatchet without the military knowing of my origins." she said.

"Origins?" Courtney asked.

Gwen sighed, "I think I know who she means." she said before everyone was covered by Naruto's shadow. "Of course." she said as her theory was confirmed.

"Now then, I want to hear no crying. Show no weakness! Rest can wait until your death! Now onward!" Esdeath yelled before tossing Geoff and Trent into the pits. "Now lead by example! Follow your new leaders!" Esdeath commands as both teams follow their respective teammates.

"Hey I didn't even say anything! How come… WAAHHHHHH!" Trent screamed as he stepped on a landmine filled with tear gas.

"Dude, how come all the hot chicks are either uptight or dangerous or… or both!?" Duncan asked, sounding angry until he stepped onto a sticky substance. "Please don't tell me…"

POP POP POP*

Duncan realized he was in a gum like trap that was next to some smile fireworks that sent him flying a few feet forward. Luckily Duncan landed in an awkward spot where he avoided a trap where wooden spikes would have penetrated him. Followed by the screams of Trent setting off a landmine. By now, Duncan was terrified, sure he had his moments in the juvenile detention center but it was nothing like a real prison.

"Okay! Psycho babes are no longer hot!" Duncan said before seeing Esdeath jump over the course. "Okay, they're hot but I'm not crazy enough to go for one." he said before Courtney arrived.

"Hey are you okay?" Courtney asked.

Duncan suddenly decided to flirt with her like he did during the "Dinner", "A little kiss would make the pain go away." he said only to earn a glare.

"Never mind, I'll just package the urn to your parents." Courtney said as she moved past him.

"Dude, if she pays for packaging it means she cares." Geoff said as he also arrived.

"Yeah… wait what's an urn?" Duncan asked.

"You know it's like code for uh…" Geoff had no idea what an urn was either.

Until Gwen yelled out out, "It's a vase that keeps someone's ashes after their dead body is burned." she said outloud.

"See? Courtney… wait you have to be dead first!?" Geoff asked.

"Move it!" Duncan yelled as he heard what sounded like machine gun fire.

Only to see Masrur just running through the course and avoiding what was actually frozen hot dogs. Being fired by Bradley and his fellow animals who were on hand made turrets. All three animals snickered as they fired aimlessly. Frequently hitting Owen as some of his teammates used him as a shield for cover.

"Gross! They aren't even cooked! It's like eating a cold rock!" Owen complained as he tried eating some.

"Just keep moving Owen, we gotta stick together in this real life war." Leshawna said as she helped push him.

"Yeah Owen, no offense but you are the food guy of this team." Gwen said.

Owen sighed, "It's a curse and a blessing." he said thinking that "food guy" was a compliment.

Gwen's Confessional

Gwen looked ragged as she started her video, "That lady, Esdeath, is beyond unhinged. I swear, all of these girls minus the singer and the huntress are all crazy. Izzy would be having the time of her life here." she said. "Although, I wonder if Esdeath has any tips for me when I have to babysit my brother or the neighbor's kids." she said.

DJ's Confessional

DJ was breathing into a paper bag, "I swear, I almost saw the other side so many times. If this is how are vets feel, I haven't done a good job thanking them." he said.

"Good, because the afterlife is very real! Both up and down!" Esdeath yelled making DJ jump in fear. "I'm not saying that to mess with you. It's a cold truth!" she said.

Only that calmed him down a bit, "At least I know grandma is watching over me. Take that science!" DJ said smugly.

"Guardian spirits also exist!" Esdeath adds.

"Grandma?" DJ asked as he looked over his shoulder, wondering if his grandmother's spirit kept him alive during this ordeal.

Duncan's Confessional

"I think I'm sticking to strict girls instead of crazy army girls." Duncan said as he fiddled with his pocket knife. "I don't know man. Just… I don't want to get blown up again." he said sounding lazy and not of fear of Esdeath.

Back to the game

Duncan stepped on another mind and was sent flying in front of the finish line, "Man down! I need a medic!" he cried out, feigning pain.

"Are you mocking me soldier?" Chef asked with a glare.

"You? Never!" Duncan said before kissing his chin.

Chef was ready to explode in anger. When Owen suddenly fell on top of him. Chef smirked as he stepped back and saw the giant amount of minds Owen must have stepped on.

"I see someone has yet to be humbled. So I think Duncan here wants a special trip. One night, solitary confinement… in the boat house." Chef said as everyone gasped.

Except Masrur who decided to hide his head under the mud. Right next to the various traps he's avoided. While completely ignoring everyone who's been caught. Including Heather who hanging upside down by a rope and DJ who was with Bridgette and trapped under a heavy net.

"So what? It can't be that bad." Duncan said.

Boat House

Duncan was very terrified, while the boat house did not sound so bad. It didn't help that the various traps and gear meant for fishing looked terrifying in the dark. It only looked worse as Hans was there to put away some dangerous tools. Making it worse as there was so little room in the boat house, he had lay everything down on the floor.

"I should have kept my mouth shut." Duncan said as he was sure he would trigger something that could kill him.

For some reason, it felt embarrassing as Hans gave him a small salute and left the boat house. Duncan almost jumped in terror as he heard a bear trap go off.

Some time had passed and eventually, Duncan got a visitor. In the form of Courtney who carried a bowl of what was hopefully edible food. Despite his circumstances, Duncan could not help but to mess with Courtney by flirting with her. Seeing as he already decided not to focus on crazed psychopaths like Esdeath despite her beauty.

"Princess! Are you here to break out your Prince Charming?" Duncan asked.

Courtney scoffed, "I brought you something to eat. I don't want you to die from starvation." she said.

"So you do you care!" Duncan exclaimed.

Courtney rolled her eyes, "Look just eat. I don't want to be the one that gets blamed for AHHHH!" Courtney stopped mid speech as she stepped on a trap.

"Courtney!" Duncan yelled out as he tried to help her.

Only for both to end up being strung upside down by ropes. With various bear traps under them. Ready to rip something off in case they fell.

"I guess someone has to save the both of us now." Duncan said.

It was irony really, with Courtney trying to help Duncan then Duncan trying to save Courtney and now both are in mortal danger.

Courtney felt a migraine building up from her frustration, "Why Duncan? Why do you have the need to get into trouble all the time?" she asked.

Duncan shrugged, "I don't know, it's just how I am. Why do you, not like to have fun?" he asked.

"I do know how to have fun. Now is just not the time to be fun. You yourself, are already on thin ice." Courtney said.

"At least I'm not going to live a bland life like you." Duncan said.

"I am not bland! I can be fun when I can be!" Courtney argued.

Duncan did not believe her, "Prove it." he said.

"Prove it how?" Courtney asked.

"First, we escape then you help me with something. Just a little bit of redemption of sorts." Duncan said with a knowing smirk.

Courtney rolled her eyes, "Whatever, let's just get out. Hopefully without losing a finger… or a head." She said.

Duncan reached for his pocket knife, "How much of either are you okay with losing?" he asked, not having any faith that he can escape without getting harmed.

Then the door opened and Naruto peaked his head inside. He stared at the two of them who looked like a deer caught in the headlights. Naruto quickly pulled out a tie and tied it around the doorknob before closing it.

"Modern romances are so strange." Naruto said before closing the door.

"Isn't it your job to keep us alive?" Courtney asked.

"My job is to not cause your deaths." Naruto answered as he sat in front of the door and pulled out a chocolate bar. "I'm not one for sweets, but this feels nice." he said as he started eating.

"Dude is that food!?" Duncan asked.

"It's not real food, but it is a form of nourishment." Naruto answered.

"Can you share?" Duncan asked.

"I can." he said making Duncan feel hopeful. "But I will not." Naruto adds as Duncan feels defeated.

"We're going to die." Duncan said.

"Not until I'm in office!" Courtney yells as she's dead set on becoming a politician.

Naruto yawned, "How did that song go again?" he asked as he tried remembering his childhood before it got worse. "Secret boat house, secret boat house, through the river! Secret secret secret boat house!" he sang.

"Is he really singing!?" Courtney asked seeing Duncan shrug.

"And the two lovers, forbidden from one another! They die!" Naruto adds, terrifying the two teens.

"What kind of song is that!?" Courtney asked, sounding horrified.

"How long do I have to say here!?" Duncan asked.

Naruto looked at his watch, "4 more hours, it was only 90 more minutes. But Courtney added to your time frame." he said.

"This is all your fault princess. You should have let me starve." Duncan said.

Before Courtney argued, she saw the food that she had brought to Duncan started to move on its own.

After solitary

Naruto let the two out after their time was up. Leaving them to do whatever they wanted after that. At least until their next and final challenge seeing as Chef eliminated more contestants with a writing and dance challenge while Duncan was stuck in solitary at the boat house.

However, Duncan chose to drag Courtney to help him raid the fridge at the secret crafts table. Where Chef and Chris were talking and enjoying real food. Where Souma was cooking and preparing meals while his brother Shirou was sleeping in early for the night. At the same time, the two teens had to watch out for Naruto's secret maids who were helping at the table. With a few looking around suspiciously like predators looking for their next meal.

'Okay, scary hot girls are also off of the list too.' Duncan thought as he thought Narberal saw him.

Yet, both were unaware that Regina was filming them the whole time. Just to get some extra film for the show. Sure she could have ruined things and exposed them, but she thought this would hurt the two more when the episode ends.

"I can't fit any more food into this bag." Courtney whispered.

Duncan nods as he ties up the bag they brought, "Good, now run." he whispered.

Once they were far enough, Courtney let out an excited scream. Somehow the adrenaline of the fear of getting caught turned into excitement. Still unaware that Regina was behind them and filming the whole thing. A good thing too, considering she's the most relaxed among her sisters. Especially when she films everyone eating the stolen food.

At the cabins

Regina kept her giggling to a minimum as she saw everyone enjoy themselves. Along with what appeared to be Harold getting pranked again by the boys. By now, it's pretty much bullying in comparison to being tricked.

"Gross!" Harold yelled as he saw a drawing of a smile on his bedsheet.

Made from nothing but peanut butter. Which didn't help as the light brown coloring of the peanut butter could almost look like feces.

"HAHA! Okay, that is a waste of peanut butter!" Duncan said before giving Geoff a high five for the prank.

"Idiots!" Harold sneered as he tried to think of how to clean up Duncan's mess.

When suddenly, Courtney ran out of the cabin to vomit. This could have been prevented had she listened to Bridgette who advised against eating more food. Duncan decided to follow Courtney to check on her.

"So how's the party, ms. perfect?" Duncan asked.

Courtney giggled, "Okay, this is a lot of fun. But I still don't approve of breaking the rules." she said while stifling a laugh. "But still, that sudden rush to be so bad. I can't help it, but it feels so good." she said as that earlier theft made her feel alive again.

Then Duncan decided to take advantage of her, "You know you could give me that kiss." he said as he asked Courtney for one, earlier in the day.

"You're still not my type." Courtney said as she ruffled Duncan's mohawk.

"Oh well, I guess you can enjoy a life with less peanut butter." Duncan said, implying he won't help Courtney in the future.

Courtney relented and gave in. She grabbed Duncan by the cheeks where she immediately pressed her lips against his. At the same time, Harold saw this through the window and scowled. No one was sure why he was angry, but there was no doubt that Harold just really hated Duncan and wanted to get back at him.

At the same time, Naruto watched from a distance while Masrur was resting against a tree and Esdeath was covering her eyes with her military cap.

"Were you like that father?" Esdeath asked.

"No, I did surprise your mother with my confession of love, but it was different." Naruto answered.

"How did that story go again?" Esdeath asked.

"You already know it. It starts with a lonely goddess turned into a monster. Unlike the stories they always tell to modern humans." Naruto said as he remembered meeting his wife who was cursed before he met her.

The next day

Today was hopefully the final day of the torture everyone was going through thanks to Chef. Only it was not any more easier as it looked like Esdeath was handling some small yet ferocious looking animals in a cage.

"What are those?" Gwen asked nervously.

"Just some little friends from the wild and they are very hungry." Esdeath answered with her demented smile.

Gwen immediately regretted asking as Chef came with new orders, "Initially, I planned for everyone to hang upside down from a tree branch, but that's pathetic! Instead, you all get to try to run from these little kittens and puppies." Chef said pointing at the caged animals. "Just last longer than the enemy team and your own team wins invincibility." he finishes.

Suddenly Kanna arrived, "And you have to wear these necklaces." she said as she put a steak attached to a rope over Owen's neck.

"Thanks little Kanna and hey! Tasty food!" Owen said as Kanna gave a food necklace to everyone including Masrur who wanted to participate again.

"You can't take them off either or can consider yourself disqualified. Besides, that food is seasoned and they will smell it even if you take it off." Chef said as everyone paled.

"I better eat fast." Owen said reaching for his steak.

"This is not cool." Duncan said as he was wearing tuna covered in catnip.

Courtney laughed, "Oh boy! They are gonna catch us!" she said already sounding crazy and excited.

Chef ignored the strange behavior, "Not if you hustle soldier! You all get 180 seconds!" he commanded as Masruru, Owen, Gwen, Heather, Duncan, Geoff and Courtney all ran for their lives.

Just as Naruto arrived with his animal friends, Kanna opened the cages, "Go little friends. Be free." she said as the animals ran.

Naruto nodded to Kurama, "You know your jobs." he said as all three animals were suddenly wearing pinned up hats like stereotypical Australians. "Come here Kanna." he said as he picked up his youngest daughter.

"Okay papa." Kanna said as she hanged onto him. "How long until they find the campers?" she asked.

"Not too long, papa had to avoid humans as a child." Naruto answered.

"Because of the scary governments?" Kanna asked.

"No, because of human stupidity. Although, the difference is humans think more but lose themselves to insanity. Animals have more honor." Naruto explained as Kanna tried to understand him.

"Okay." Kanna responded before hearing Owen scream.

"NOOOOOO! THAT'S MY STEAK YOU STUPID TIGER THING!" Owen screamed.

"Found one." Naruto said.

"NOT COOL BRO! YOU CAN HAVE THE FISH! I DON'T WANT IT!" Geoff also screamed.

"Found two. That leaves four, so they lost um." Kanna tried to count with her fingers.

Naruto answered for her, "One third of the campers lose, but they're from different sides. Yet, both lose one third" he said slowly.

Kanna counted three people on each hand and was surprised, "That's right." she said. Only to point at her father, "Papa, you forgot brother Masrur. That makes seven people and three teams." she said.

Naruto thought it over, "That is true. You caught my mistake." he said as Kanna looked victorious.

Leshawna's Confessional

Leshawna shook her head, "Mhm mhm! Why does something that cute exist on this world? That girl is the cutest thing on the planet and so is that Nunnally girl from the food challenge!" she said giving into Kanna's adorable outlook.

Trent's Confessional

"Should I find it disturbing that a little kid is not caring for the lives of others? I mean, I know she's not human but come on! That's a bit creepy… cute but creepy." Trent said before sighing. "Who am I kidding? It's only cute." he said.

Back to the contestants

Marsrur was casually sitting on top of a tree while eating an apple. Looking down at the annoyed animals that Kanna let loose before giving up and seeking out all of the other campers. At the same time, he saw Shiro trying to shoot him with a gun filled with pellets covered in special materials meant to attract the animals. Only to dodge each bullet before annoying the cartoon style dragon until he gave up and moved on.

Where Masrur could hear Duncan screaming in pain, "Hey! That actually hurt you overgrown gecko!" he yelled before being shot again. "Knock it off!" he yelled before a wolf like creature pounced on him.

"Hehe." Shiro chuckled as he saw the wolf drag Duncan away.

"NO! NO! NO!" Duncan shouts as he tries to hang onto a tree before being dragged away.

Eventually, Heather and Gwen made their way towards the tree where Masrur sat, "Hey, care to offer some help?" Heather asked.

"No." Masrur answered.

"Why not!?" Heather asked angrily only to be ignored. From there, Gwen attempted to climb the tree, "What are you doing now, weird goth girl?" she asked.

"What does it look like? I'm surviving." Gwen answered just as she heard the animals coming.

"Don't leave me behind!" Heather said as she also tried to climb the tree.

Just as the animals started to claw at the tree. Gwen's foot slipped and immediately started to fall until she grabbed a branch that started to crack. The pressure of her weight made it difficult for the branch to hold Gwen. As she tried to reach for the tree again only to find herself too far away by about a couple inches.

"Darn it! Heather!" Gwen called out.

"Sorry, can't hear you." Heather lied as she climbed higher towards Masrur.

Gwen glared at Heather before getting hit in the shoulder by a pellet, "Ouch! What is this!?" she asked as she caught the pellet with her free hand.

She looked in the distance to see Kurama and Bradley laughing as they ran away to look for Courtney. As they retreated, Gwen looked at the pellet and squished it. Making the pellet release a small gas equivalent to catnip.

"Gross! The mean cats I have to babysit don't need this much!" Gwen complained.

At the same time, Masrur stood up from where he sat and immediately growled as he held his head. When his teeth transformed into elongated fangs, his pupils became slits and his red hair started to spread around his body. His metamorphoses came to an end and Masrur became a giant red lion, one with a ferocious appearance that no modern day individual had witnessed before. Yet, somehow the style of hair as well as it's color made him look majestic.

Yet still terrifying as that feral sighed scared Heather. Who Masrur kicked away as he slowly jumped down to get to Gwen just as the branch she was hanging from broke off. As Gwen fell to her imminent doom. Masrur caught her on his back and scared away the other animals with a mighty roar that could be heard from across the island.

"Woah! Nice kitty!" Gwen said hoping to keep Masrur calm. Only for him to drop Gwen and roll his head into her chest, "Hey hey hey! A little space please?" she asked only to be licked. "Okay, giant lions are a new one. I guess this kid was just an angry cat." she said as she's worked with angry cats before.

For a few minutes, Masrur hanged around Gwen who used him as protection from the nearby predators. As well as ignoring Heather who was already taken away for the meat hanging around her neck.

"I guess you're not such a bad guy afterall." Gwen said as she scratched Masrur's chin. Making his lion form purr, "Good kitty." she said, unaware that Naruto was taking pictures from the distance.

"I think my wife will want to see this." Naruto said as he took a few more photos before putting the camera away while Masrur played with Gwen.

However it would not be too long as Courtney was eventually caught by the animals. Where Chef announced the Screaming Gophers as the winners. Prompting all of them to run after Gwen. Only to be scared away by Masrur who growled at them.

"Easy boy, they're just friends." Gwen said.

"Congratulations Private, you earned my respect today. So much, that I would be honored to fight alongside you in the call of duty." Chef said with admiration.

"Wow thanks, I'll keep that in mind for my career choice." Gwen said.

"Don't take it lightly. What you did was brave and intelligent. Especially considering that Masrur here, is related to an extinct animal. One more ferocious than modern lions." Chef explained as everyone minus Gwen went pale.

"I'm very sure the Ancient Egyptians would be praising you for taming a feline as majestic as Masrur." Naruto said as he gently patted his son's head.

That part was true, Egypt used to worship cats and saw cats as the superior creature.

At the bonfire

With Gwen obtaining victory in what was likely a hunt. Likely considered a war crime or at the very least a terrible form of torture for foreign war prisoners. Regardless of what happened, the Screaming Gophers were the victors and Killer Bass were on the chopping block. Six would turn into five in a matter of the deciding votes.

Although from the looks of things, Naruto was having a slightly heated conversation with Chris who tried to wave him off.

"Hey man, they broke the rules first. It's not about that stupid saying that, "it's not a crime if you don't get caught", rather it's who did the first crime. Cool?" Chris asked.

"Not cool, there will be consequences and I won't be the one enforcing them." Naruto answered.

"Just let me borrow that Demi-guy or whatever his name is dude. It will be cool in the end bro." Chris said as he picked up the plate of marshmallows.

Naruto pinched the bridge of his nose, "I see how it is. Solution!" he called out as one of the maids appeared.

"Yes Lord Naruto?" a blonde woman named Solution asked.

"I want you and your sisters to keep tight security on the voting box." Naruto said as he handed the box with the fake ballots to the slime woman.

"Understood." Solution said as she shoved the box inside of her slimy flesh before disappearing.

Naruto then looked over the lake, "Hopefully Juna brought a man eating sea monster with her." he said as he could sea Juna's scales popping out of the water.

With the campers

Chris arrived pretending that the conversation never happened, "You know, I think you guys should be happy to be here. Otherwise you would have ended up as animal poo if those things got to you." he said as everyone grimaced. "Remember though, just because you survived. It doesn't mean you get to come back to the island if you get eliminated. But that won't matter. If you get a marshmallow that is." he said rephrasing the rules.

Everyone took various breaths as they waited for Chris to announce the losers.

"So the ones who won't be walking down the Dock of Shame and into the Boat of Losers is… Bridgette, Duncan, DJ, Geoff and our final marshmallow will go to…" as Chris let everyone feel suspenseful.

No one noticed Naruto giving Kurama a book to drop off at the Boat of Losers. One titled, "The Fragility of the Mind", a book one mental torture.

"…Harold!" Chris said as he threw the final marshmallow at him.

"WHAT!?" Courtney asked outrageously.

Even Duncan got mad, "Dude there is clearly a mistake! I know at least three of us didn't vote for Courtney!' he said as DJ and Geoff nodded.

But Chris did not care, "The votes were counted twice. No rule change!" he said.

Before anyone realized it, Chef had to lift Courtney into the Boat of Losers and took off. Not caring for whatever rant or threat the former Counselor in Training had to give. However she did calm down once Duncan grabbed her attention.

"Courtney! I made you something!" Duncan yelled as he threw his gift at her.

"Duncan it's… kind of creepy." Courtney said as the gift is a wooden skull carved from a branch. "But I love it!" she yelled before she was finally out of sight.

Later that night

Things were quiet at the camp grounds now that the elimination ceremony was over. Harold felt victorious at getting back at Duncan by getting rid of Duncan's new girlfriend. Only he did not realize that he was filmed while tampering with the votes. The universe will take it slowly, but it does punish all who mess with it's laws.

When suddenly, they heard a loud roar, "Hey is everything alright over there?" Harold asked as he approached the girls side.

Only to be surprised by Masrur who came out and kicked him. Harold screamed in terror before he skidded to a halt. Gwen and the other girls came out wondering what was wrong with the lion hybrid.

"Does this big cat hate nerds or something?" Leshawna asked.

"Maybe he just smells weird." Gwen answered.

"Ew! I remembered that Courtney said that Harold throws his poop covered underwear outside." Lindsay said.

Leshawna shook her head, "I know that boy is having a hard time, but I think the Bass should have voted off someone that nasty." she said.

Heather nodded, "Who knows what he was thinking when he heard the cat." she said referring to Masrur who yawned.

"Come on Masrur, nap time." Gwen said leading Masrur inside.

The next day

With Harold recovering from Masrur's sudden attack and the girls waking up to a fluffy friend, despite the fact that Gwen used a lot of water and soap to null the smell of catnip. Everyone gathered up for the next challenge. Of course, it started with Chris waking everyone up by flying on a plane to create loud noises. Because… why not?

"Good, because today we will be doing extreme sports! Starting with skydiving!" Chris announced, peaking some interest. "For our first

contestants, I will be dropping off DJ for the Bass and Trent for the Gophers." he said before throwing some dirty looking parachutes.

"It doesn't look so bad right DJ?" Trent asked the nervous looking teen. "They say the best view from heaven is from falling to hell." he adds.

"Or looking at Elysium from Hades. Depends on how you want to look at it." Chris said adding some Greek references to the mix.

"I quess it's not so bad right? Just a few feet right?" DJ asked nervously.

"Yeah, just 5000 feet (1524 meters) in the air." Chris said as DJ paled in fear. "Then there's the second challenge. Two of you get to ride Ranga!" he announced.

Everyone looked at him in confusion, "Ride what?" Leshawna asked.

Naruto suddenly landed in a superhero pose, "Ranga to me." he said.

"I am here!" yelled a giant two horned wolf.

"Is that a werewolf!?" Harold asked.

"I am Lord Naruto's Tempest Wolf!" Ranga announced as he towered over everyone.

Chris laughed, "We originally had a moose for you guys to play rodeo on. But it's mating season, so Ranga agreed to participate." he said.

"I will be fair and just, but will give no exception to anyone that fails to hang onto me for a set amount of time." Ranga explained.

"Sounds easy." Leshawna said.

"Good! Because you and Geoff will be participating for both of you teams. Which leaves me with the third challenge. Water skiing!" Chris continued as he revealed a mud course.

"How will we ski without water?" Heather asked.

Everyone soon heard Souma screaming as he crashed a homemade jet ski into a tree.

"My son has just demonstrated it." Naruto said.

Then Kanna appeared and pulled on Souma's ear, "Who said you can take a nap? You get no break." she said before pulling Souma away.

"That's my girl. Remind them who's boss." Naruto said proudly.

"Dude, what are you teaching your kids?" Trent asked.

"Important life lessons filled with knowledge." Naruto answered, scaring a few of the campers in the process.

"Father of the past millennia everyone." Chris said as he pointed at Naruto who suddenly pulled out a trophy.

Everyone sweat dropped when they saw it, "They do not give these lightly." Naruto said.

Chris then announced who would be participating in the final challenge, "Now then, Harold will be representing the Killer Bass and Lindsay for the Screaming Gophers." he said. "And that's all campers. Just get your breakfast and be ready in an hour." Chris said before taking off in his plane again.

"Let's go Ranga." Naruto said.

"Yes my lord!" Ranga said as he jumped into Naruto's shadow.

"What was that?" Bridgette asked.

"A super wolf Bridge and it can hide in someone's shadow. Okay now I want one!" Geoff said sounding excited.

Gwen looked at Masruru curiously, "Can you do that?" she asked. Masrur attempted the same skill, "Ow! Why does he feel heavy!?" she asked just as he jumped out.

Harold tapped his chin in curiosity, "Maybe it takes a lot of strength or maybe you don't have the magic to carry him." He answered.

"Whatever, maybe he can scare his brothers into giving us good food." Gwen said before Masrur growled in agreement.

After breakfast

*BURP*

Upon hearing that sound, everyone knew that Owen was finished and had a full stomach. However, his burping made him spit out a strange card with a pink heart appear. Out of curiosity, Chef picked up the card and read it out loud.

"For the girl with smoldering eyes." Chef read before shaking his head and tossing it aside as he picked up the dishes Owen left behind.

Bridgette picked up the card and read it beside Gwen, "Is it a poem?" She asked.

"I think it's a haiku." Gwen answered.

Brigette laughed lightly, "Someone has a major crush. It's probably for you." she said.

Gwen looked hesitant, "Really? I was going to say it was for you." she said.

"But Trent has a crush on you." Bridgette countered, seeing how often the musician looks at Gwen.

"Yeah but Geoff likes you. Remember when he tried to get your attention at the dock?" Gwen asked.

Both girls stopped and laughed at the memory. Geoff was about to go wakeboarding with Trent driving the jet ski. Only for him to switch it to reverse and hit Geoff in the process. Along with destroying a part of the dock Geoff was on. Causing Geoff to hang onto his life once Trent started to recklessly drag Geoff around the lake.

"Then again, Geoff probably can't pronounce haiku let alone write one." Gwen said.

"What does that mean?" Bridgette asked, sounding defensive.

Gwen wanted to be honest, "Geoff isn't the scholarly type." She tries to explain.

"Well I bet Trent doesn't even write his own songs, like a poser." Bridgette argued.

The two girls began to take the poem from each other. Back and forth until it ended up ripping up the card as they argued about who wrote the poem and who it was for. As they damaged it, they saw another letter fly through the window.

"Ha, I bet this is from Geoff." Bridgette said.

"I doubt it, it doesn't look like a paper plane." Gwen said as both tried to reach for the letter.

Only to pull their hands back as a giant sharp weapon crashed through the wall and hitting the floor. Almost stabbing them in the arms in the process. Just as a silver haired man in fine white clothing climbed through the hole in the wall.

"Do not put your filthy hands on that art." the man said.

"Who the heck are you!?" Gwen asked.

"I am Hades Pluto Uzumaki, fifth son of Naruto. Everyone just refers to me as Pluto." he said before picking up the letter and his weapon.

"Did you write these poems?" Bridgette asked as she picked up the damaged card.

Pluto sneered, "I would not consider that feeble thing to be art. There is no passion, no devotion, just admiration and denial." he said. "This is true art, I will give you only one moment to read it." he said as he held up the letter.

"For your smile I would kill a thousand soldiers, to admire your eyes of an amethyst color that shame the ardor of the sun and the light of the moon I would break the bones of 2000 Spartans until rivers of blood flow, where their color scarlet blurs from your persuasive and sudecent beauty like a summer breeze, but at the same time you are dangerous and powerful to shame any monarch unable to live up to you."

Both girls recoiled in fear, "That's art?" they asked at the same time.

"Yes, it is filled with passion, devotion, commitment and promises fulfilled." Pluto said.

"Who was this for?" Gwen asked.

"My mother from my father." Pluto answered as he placed the paper onto his chest.

Both girls sweat dropped, "Lots of passion." Gwen said.

Pluto smiled, "I am glad to hear someone agrees. Unfortunately that dunce, Veldora, let all of the letters out. Do let us know if you find either." he said before leaping out of the window.

"Okay… I guess we should watch out for life threatening poems." Gwen said.

"Yeah totally. Except that doesn't mean the other poem wasn't from Geoff!" Bridgette said before running away.

Challenge 1

As Chris settled down his plane, a few of Naruto's servants started working on the plane to double check to make sure it remained stable. With Trent and DJ already packing up to prepare for the long drop. Along with someone reminding them how to get their parachute ready.

"Okay guys, now I need to mention the second part of this challenge." Chris said as two sofas appeared. "You will be using these sofas as landing targets. But you might want to move them around in order to catch your teammates." he explained.

"Just a small drop right?" DJ asked hoping to calm his own fears.

"It's a matter of uh… relativity. That makes sense right? Right." Chris said, not helping with DJ's fears.

"I wish we won the challenge last time. We would have gotten the flute." DJ said.

"Wait a minute! Where is the flute!? We didn't get one in the last challenge at all!" Heather exclaimed.

"And we don't have one now." Gwen said.

"Whoops, I knew I forgot something. Oh well, those things are hard to make. Don't worry, I have faith in all of you." Chris said before running back into his plane.

"Hey Chris." one of the servants called out. "The things a bit shabby, but we put seals on them." they said.

"Seals? Like the sea animal?" Chris asked.

"Haha, no. It comes from an art called fuinjutu, otherwise known as sealing art. If the plane decides to crap out, those seals will make it fall really slowly." the servant said.

"Good to know." Chris said seeing as his own safety has been guaranteed.

Meanwhile the boys were also entering the plane, "Don't worry boys, we have a few harpies who will catch you in case things go bad." Another servant dressed like a mechanic said. "Unless they took their lunch break early." he said.

"Why do you have harpies in the first place?" Trent asked.

"Protection from when some idiots… I mean, uh… emergency fire prevention. Yeah, that's ti." the servant lied.

"Don't worry Trent, think of this as a form of self expression. Like a haiku." Gwen said hoping to catch Trent as the secret author.

Trent on the other hand, feels very confused, "I'm sorry what?" he asied.

Ignoring that awkward moment, Chris piloted the plane high into the air. Where he was partially sure he saw the beach side where the sofas were at. With DJ somehow gaining more courage to jump.

"Wow, that is a long drop." Trent said.

"But it's not that bad, right?" DJ asked, giving Trent a pat on the back.

Which accidentally knocked the guitarist off of the plane. Letting him plummet into the ground where he ruined a picnic. Where three attractive yet avian like women got mad.

"Oh my gosh! He ruined my basket and all the food inside!" one of them said.

"Jasmine, Mindy, I think we need to teach this human some manners." Said the lead harpy.

"Right Alexis!" the two other harpies said.

"Please don't!" Trent pleads as he is already filled with too much pain.

It didn't help that his body was already several feet deep into the ground. Which left him at the mercy of several avian women to torture him. Yet for some reason, the Screaming Gophers haven't noticed that he landed far away from where Trent landed.

"Why is this thing so heavy?" Lindsay asked.

Heather looked over the couch and got angry, "Owen!" she yelled as she saw her large teammate was sleeping on top of the sofa.

The girls used all of their strength to push. With not much progress done seeing as Owen weighed about as much as a small truck. With him somehow being heavier upon falling asleep.

"I really wish we had something to move him!" Gwen said as she kicked the sofa.

Suddenly Masrur turned into his human form and kicked the sofa away by a few hundred feet. the kick's impact not only moved it by a great distance. It woke up Owen who started to scream before hitting the ground.

"OW! What the heck!?" Owen asked before Masrur turned into a giant lion again.

"You deserve Owen! No more sleeping on the job!" Gwen shouted.

"No dinner either fool!" Leshawna adds.

"NOOOOOOO! THAT'S INHUMANE!" Owen shouts.

Only to hear a nearby worker pull out a radio, "What do you mean Trent went way off target? And why is he more injured than he should be?" they asked.

"I guess sleeping on the job didn't really matter." Owen muttered just as DJ hit his target.

"I made it!" DJ shouts before being trapped inside the sofa.

Challenge 2

Naruto adjusted the saddle he placed on Ranga's back, "Show no mercy." he told his companion.

"I know not of this mercy master." Ranga said as Naruto left him alone. "Who dares challenge me!?" he asked just as Geoff arrived.

"I do bro!" Geoff said as he stretched before getting on.

"Hey Geoff, before you ride. Do you have anything to say?" Bridgette asked expectantly.

"What do you mean?" Geoff asked.

"You know, something expressive and artistic to say. Like a haiku?" Bridgette asked, getting a head shake from Gwen.

Geoff was very confused, "What's a haiku?" he asked.

Gwen smirked, "A poem." she answered.

Geoff scratched his head, "A poem huh? Not my style, neither is this." he said as he gave Bridgette a letter. "I found it after DJ crashed. It was way too creepy for me to read. Its about murder and stuff or something." he said.

Bridgette grimaced as she read it, "I guess that's another letter for Pluto." she said, putting away Naruto's secret poem.

"But if you want to see real art. You should check out my tattoo!" Geoff said as he excitedly pulled down his pants.

Bridgette gagged as she looked away from Geoff's butt. While Gwen laughed off the stupid ink drawing on his butt cheek. Ranga on the other hand, was not one bit amused and not very fond of nudity.

"I have no tolerance for exhibitionists!" Ranga roared as he started running around the forest.

Causing Geoff to scream in terror for about a minute until he was sent flying off. Before being struck by lightning from Ranga followed by crashing into some dirty underwear and socks that Chris left as a punishment for the loser of the challenge.

"Dude, that was rough." Chris said as Geoff accidentally caught some dirty laundry in his mouth.

Up next was Leshawna who jumped on Ranga's back, "Come on Fido, show Leshawna what you got." she said.

"Challenge accepted!" Ranga replied as he ran around wildly.

As Leshawna used all of her strength to hang onto the Tempest Wolf. Bridgette and Gwen tried to review who else the author of the original poem could be. As well as keeping an eye out for Naruto's poems. Seeing as the blond man had just disappeared on his own.

"So that leaves Duncan, DJ, Owen and Harold." Bridgette said as they brainstormed.

"I doubt it's Harold. Just look at him." Gwen said as they looked at the nerdy camper.

Who was apparently trying to do some strange pose on tree stomp. While talking about his, "mad skills" which he apparently has. Harold also tried to get Leshawna's attention only to be hit by Ranga. Causing him to fly high in the air.

"Okay it's definitely not Harold." Bridgette said just as Harold crashed down.

"Well, we better work together on this rather than against each other." Gwen said just as Ranga came to a halt.

"The time has ended and I have failed. Forgive me master!" Ranga yelled having run around like a wild animal for the past few minutes.

"Oh yeah! Leshawna wins!" Leshawna said cheering for herself just as Chris declared her the winner of the second challenge.

Challenge 3

A few minutes passed and not too much happened in between that time. Except for Gwen and Bridgette confirming that Owen and DJ lack the writing skills to make decent poetry. Or as Pluto calls it, novice trash. Along with the fact they could hear Veldora knocking over several trees in an attempt to hide.

Finally there was Duncan and his only real art was drawing things like skulls. Although Bridgette could swear that she saw him draw Courtney's face on a tree. So that means even if Duncan was secretly soft underneath his gritty exterior. There was the fact that he clearly only had eyes for Courtney.

"I guess we'll never know who made the poem." Bridgette said.

Gwen sighed, "Maybe we did take this a bit far. I mean I think we found more of these darker poems than we did finding another author." she said as she found more of the missing poems.

"How dark?" Bridgette asked, seemingly regretting asking such a question.

"They stopped talking about blood, guts and torturing people. So that's one thing." Gwen said pointing out the positive points of the works.

Suddenly Harold kicked down the door of the confessional can, "I'm ready to rock!" he exclaimed before falling.

"It is definitely not Harold." Bridgette said still doubting Harold's ability to write poetry.

At the mud course

Naruto arrived with a large group behind him. The group itself was carrying a large object covered by a tarp. Which he apparently decided to guard and deliver himself.

"This spot is fine." Naruto commands.

"What is that?" Duncan asked.

Naruto snapped his fingers and the tarp was removed, "A shower of sorts." he said revealing what appeared to be a mobile shower.

Yet with poor conditions in the camp despite the massive budget Chris was gifted with. The shower on it's own looked very majestic. Like a rare animal children and young adults only dreamed of. Well a mythical animal that wasn't life threatening. Such as their local dragon.

"Wow." was all Duncan said.

"Dude we need that." Geoff said as he stinks really badly from crashing into the dirty laundry from earlier.

"A shower? Give us something good!" Owen shouted.

Heather proceeded to yank on his ear, "Listen here you idiot! We will win that shower and if it wasn't for Trent crashing into the wrong place!" she trailed off.

"And getting beaten up by harpies." Trent said as he was recovering from his trip from the infirmary.

"That too, then you would have costed us a victory for sleeping on the job!" Heather said angrily.

"I said I was sorry!" Owen cried out.

Just as the argument ended, Chris blew an airhorn into the air, "Are both sides ready? I need a driver from the Bass and Gophers to drive the jet ski." he said.

"Me first!" Duncan said as just as Lindsay arrived in a new bikini.

"I'm back! How do I look?" Lindsay asked, gathering the attention of the men.

Chris blew on his airhorn again, "Move!" he commands.

Mud course

Just as Duncan started up the engine and began to move through the course. He attempted to swerve around to make Lindsay fail to obtain the flags she needed to win for her team. Only it turned out to be much harder for himself and Lindsay as the ground started shaking.

"Earthquake!" Duncan yelled.

"Earthquake? On an island this small?" Harold asked.

"It's not." Naruto said as a large creature bursted out of the mud.

*SCREECH*

"AHHHH!" Duncan screamed in terror just as more creatures came out.

"Monster!" Lindsay yelled as she picked up more flags.

"Prehistoric mole rats." Naruto corrected.

"What!?" Harold asked.

"Prehistoric mole rats, they were kept in preservation but needed to be let out." Naruto answered as more kept coming out.

"Stupid dinosaur hamsters!" Duncan yells until he his jet ski crashes into one.

Meanwhile Lindsay's zip line connected to Duncan had snapped. Letting the inertia around her to keep her moving until she grabbed the final flag as well as sliding through the finish line just as more mole rats appeared.

"WOOHOO!" Lindsay cheered.

*SCREECH*

"Wall." Naruto casted, causing a giant ethereal wall to surround the mud course. "That should keep them contained." he says, ignoring Duncan as he runs from the mole rats.

"Are you sure he's safe?" Gwen asked.

"Duncan will live. Oh that reminds me." Naruto said as he reached into coat and pulled out an envelope.

"What's this?" Gwen asked as she carefully opened the envelope.

"Compensation for watching over Masrur. He's been needing to run around for a while." Naruto answered as Masrur roared in his lion form.

"I'm not really the babysitting type so… 900 DOLLARS!?" Gwen asked with a shocked face.

Gwen's Confessional

Gwen looked very surprised, "900 Canadian dollars!? This is real currency!" she says waving the envelope around. "I really didn't expect this. I mean, I did say I handled a few grumpy cats and Masrur is just an overgrown one. But this is way too much." she said.

Heather's Confessional

Heather was gobsmacked, "How come Gwen gets paid that much for handling Cat Boy!?" she asked angrily. "It's unfair, I think I deserve the most compensation for what this show has done to me!" she said angrily at not being paid.

Owen's Confessional

"I know it's a good thing for Gwen, but I wanna get paid. Imagine all the things you could get for 900 bucks. I wonder if Gwen wants to rotate jobs." Owen wondered.

A few minutes later

Owen came back with a scratched up face, "I suddenly realize that I am more of a dog person." he said

Back to the game

Heather volunteered to drive next as Harold looked fearless against the giant mole rats. Despite secretly being very terrified of them. When they heard the airhorn, Heather recklessly drove around the various mole rats until they started chasing them. She was very confident that Harold would likely want to give up or let go if any of the mole rats caught him.

"What is he made of?" Heather asked as she continued to drive around only for Harold to catch the flags.

As she continued to put all her effort into running towards the dangers. Heather found herself getting caught by a tree for a brief moment. Nothing bad happened outside of her shirt being ripped off. Unfortunately, it appeared that it also caught her bra. That is unless Heather doesn't wear a bra under such a revealing shirt.

"NO!" Heather shouts as she covers her breasts.

Sadly Harold saw them in all their glory, "Nice!" he said until he lost focus and hit a rock. "Worth it!" he said until a mole rat grabbed his legs and dragged him away as he screamed.

"The winners! The Screaming Gophers!" Chris announced.

"Woohoo! We won the shower!" Lindsay cheered along with her team.

"I totally could have used that shower man." Geoff said looking depressed as his stink alienated his teammates.

"Killer Bass, I will see you all at the bonfire tonight. Must be some major bad luck to lose a third time in a row." Chris said as the Gophers went through the same thing.

A while later

After some long hot showers to clean off all of the gunk from their stay at the island. The Screaming Gophers enjoyed their victory just as the Bass all contemplated as to who should leave. However, it appeared that Bridgette and Gwen were still stomped as to who wrote the poem. Until Leshawna appeared and took it.

"Oh did you find one of my poems?" Leshawna asked.

"Your poem?" Gwen and Bridgette asked.

"Yeah, who do you think has the bod' that my admirer talks about?" Leshawna asked, revealing that there were more poems and they were addressed to her.

Ignoring the shock, Bridgette pulled out the other poems, "Well maybe we should turn these things in. I doubt with Naruto acting so calm, he probably doesn't know that these things went missing." She said.

"What poems poems girl?" Leshawna asked as Bridgette showed one. Leshawna recoiled in terror, "Ah heck no! Forget the passion, that is way too dark!" she exclaimed.

"Better turn them in before the bonfire tonight." Bridgette said as the two girls nodded.

At Naruto's Castle

Just as the girls made it to the castle deep in the woods. They were met with Duncan and Heather.

"What are you guys doing here?" Gwen asked.

"I found this creepy note to Naruto from his, Serpent Queen." Heather gagged.

"And Heather kept running away from whatever was hiding in the woods. So I thought I should help." Duncan said.

"Liar, you just want to see the castle." Gwen said as they found the gothic looking castle.

"It's creepy but it's a nice crib." Duncan said as looked at the giant structure.

As the approached it, they saw the maids cleaning out the house. With several hooded figures entering the building with several documents.

"I swear Yuri, the bugs here are more organized than the kids." Entoma said.

"I know Entoma, but it doesn't help that Lord Veldora might exile himself for losing those poems." Yuri said just as the campers appeared.

With Gwen holding her hands up as a sign of surrender, "Hey, uh we don't mean any trouble. But that Hades Pluto guy, whatever his name is wanted these back." she said pointing at the poems.

Yuri adjusted her glasses, "Let me see them." she requested. Once she took them from Gwen, Yuri looked them over once, "Oh good, I will put in a request to increase your paycheck for watching over Masrur." she said as Heather glared at Gwen.

"I found this one too!" Heather said as she revealed her poem.

Entoma snatched it away, "It's from milady, this one is extra important Yuri." she said.

"Good, you can take something out of the chest." Yuri said to Heather as she pointed at a treasure chest. "Sadly I do not have the time to organize it. Some may either be generic pieces of jewelry or explosive weapons in disguise as jewelry." she said.

Heather quickly looked through the chest and her eyes were blinded by greed, "This emerald looks nice. Wait, did you say weapons?" she asked.

Entoma shrugged, "You can throw one and find out. If it explodes, it's a weapon." she said.

As this exchange went on, they saw two more maids moving some portraits. Both talking about if it's remotely safe to just move things outside to organize the building on the inside.

"Be careful Shizu, this portrait is worth more than our entire existence." Narberal said.

"I am well aware of such a fact." Shizu said lacking emotion in her voice.

"You have priceless art in there?" Heather asked.

"This is beyond priceless." Narberal answered.

Shizu then removed the tarp as to move it into a glass container, "This will be more safe than a mere sheet." she said.

Gwen and the others slowly moved towards the painting to look at it. All of them having various reactions as to what it was.

For what they saw was a beautiful woman, with fair skin, purple eyes and long beautiful purple hair. However, she was no human as the woman had serpent like features including golden claws and talons, golden wings it almost appeared as if her hair had come to life. That was the first thing worth noticing if a viewer was to ignore how endowed the woman was. Despite her unnatural appearance, this was clearly the making of something beyond normal humans.

"Who is that?" Gwen asked nervously.

"Lady Medusa, daughter of Typhon and Echidna, mother of Veldora and every child after him as well as the spouse of Master Naruto." Yuri explained.

(NOTE: Gorgon Stage 3 in FGO, but in a black dress)

Gwen's Confessional

"I know she doesn't look human for obvious reasons, but she's really pretty. I'm not one for compliments, but you can kind of see that authority and terror in her eyes." Gwen said having admired the portrait. "I think I can see some of her kids in her with that look in her eyes." she said.

Duncan's Confessional

"Scary and sexy? What the heck man!? How does someone with that kind of scowl get a babe like that?" Duncan asked before shivering. "I guess I see how she's related to that Esdeath chick and where guys like Masrur get that serious look from." he said.

Heather's Confessional

Heather groaned, "I think if I were to ignore the fact that she's some kind of snake lady. Naruto's wife is still this ruthless, terrifying and authoritative woman with beauty to match it." she said. She then looked defeated, "I have so much to learn. It's so unfair! They said Medusa was this ugly jealous woman and she's actually a beautiful woman that puts people in their places." she said feeling envious.

Bridgette's Confessional

Like the others, Bridgette felt a shiver, "Okay, I know some myths are real and just decided to stay hidden, but I never expected Medusa. The snake woman who some say is an ugly creature. To be this beautiful, elegant woman with terrifying features." she said being shocked by the appearance of the mythological Greek monster

Naruto's Confessional

"I love my wife, but that does not give anyone the right to look at her portrait and leer at it. And for those wondering, you do know that even Seraphs do not look like ordinary humans, yes? So stop spreading rumors like you did with Zeus and everyone." Naruto commands.

It was true, sometimes humans spread rumors and negative things due to missing context and/or lack of information. Just like Naruto explaining that not all angels look like ordinary humans with wings. Perhaps modern humans do not have the mental capacity to handle things beyond normal reasoning.

At the bonfire

Chris arrived with the marshmallows, "I think today was exciting. A few things were not expected. Yet, you are all alive." he said as everyone remained silent. "I don't know what motivates all of you, but I doubt it's these marshmallows. Although, they are super important because without them, one of you will have to walk down the Dock of Shame and into the Boat of Losers." he said as he picked up the first marshmallow.

Then Solution Epsilon appeared, "I have the ballots." she said as she pulled out the box from her stomach.

"Ew!" the entire Killer Bass whined.

"I am a slime and this would not be necessary due to a recent security incident." Solution said as she looked at everyone with her dead looking eyes.

"She's right, some dude broke the lock. We don't have any evidence but… we had to add security." Chris said as Harold looked rather nervous.

"But at least I know who gets to stay." Chris said as he looked at the votes. "Let's see, Bridgette your safe. Geoff is safe, DJ… also safe and the final marshmallow goes too…" he trails off as he double checks the ballots.

For some reason, Harold no longer looked like he cared. Duncan on the other hand felt a bit suspicious toward Harold. Yet it was the both of them who screwed up in the final portion of the challenge. With Harold getting distracted by Heather and Duncan driving straight into a giant mole rat. So either one could leave today.

"…Duncan, safe for now." Chris said as he handed over the final marshmallow. "Sorry Harold, grab your stuff and say goodbye." he said.

At the docks

Harold waved goodbye at everyone, "Goodbye Total Drama Island. I loved, I lost and I saw boobies." He said getting various reactions. Harold also revealed a final detail, "Leshawna, I meant every word of that poem!" he shouted.

"Wait, you wrote that poem?" Leshawna asked.

"I did and I meant every detail starting from your smoldering eyes." Harold said.

Suddenly both boy and girl ran into each other's arms. Rather, Leshawna caught Harold in his arms.

"Baby, you some kind of freaky." Leshawna compliments as she crushes Harold in a hug.

"Give daddy some sugar." Harold croaked out before he received a kiss from his secret crush.

As everyone watched this romantic scene. They did not notice the army of chibi men in black outfits with orange spiral masks. All of them popped out from the Boat of Losers and pulled out a rocket.

"Uh oh! The boat is a no go!" they said.

"What the heck? What are you people?" Harold asked.

"We are the Tobi's! Master Naruto sent us to make sure everything is fixed!" Tobi I said.

"But sadly, the boat is broken." Toby II said sadly.

"Don't worry though! We got a rocket!" Tobi III said as they lifted up Harold and tossed him inside.

"What the heck!? A real rocket!?" Harold asked fearing for his life.

"Salute the astronaut boys!" Tobi I said as everyone lit the fire underneath the rocket and saluted.

"Goodbye Mr. Astronaut!" the Tobi's said together.

Harold began to bang on the locked door, "Let me out of this thing!" he pleads.

The Tobi's laughed at his plight, "Cheaters don't get second chances!" they said as Harold blasted off.

"NOT COOL!" Harold screamed as he crashed somewhere off of the island.

Everyone was stunned into silence until Geoff spoke up, "Did he say he saw your chest?" Geoff asked.

"Guys, that's not what matters." Bridgette said.

Leshawna on the other hand, did not listen, "No way, but who's chest did he see?" she asked before seeing Heather come out of the mobile shower.

"That felt good." Heather said before Leshawna glared at her.

"Did you show Harold your chest!?" Leshawna asked.

Heather scoffed, "I did not mean for that loser to see them. You honestly think I would show him my boobs on purpose?" she asked before being chased by Leshawna across the camp.

"Bye bye!" the Tobi's said before jumping deep into the water.

"What the heck was that!?" Owen asked.

With Harold

Harold cursed as he managed to break out of the rocket after it submerged underwater. Where he was greeted with the sight of a leviathan rising from the water. With a familiar face standing on it's head with a trident in hand.

"Hello Harold." the figure said.

"C-Courtney?" Harold stuttered.

"Have you met my new friend Juna?" Courtney asked.

Harold slowly submerged back into the water only for Juna to grab him with her tail, "I'm sorry Courtney!" he yelled.

"Sorry is not good enough!" Courtney yelled angrily

TO BE CONTINUED…

NOTES: Hopefully you guys enjoyed this slice of comedy and randomness.

Also you are all free to feel how you think or whatever. Except for that one guest, I know what you think but Total Drama is not really a Reality Show. It's an animated series parodying an animated show. That's like saying Clone High is a real high school life show and anyone old enough to have seen it understands me.

Also for other stuff, "Pluto" is basically the version of Hades from Shuumatsu no Valkyrie. He was named after Hades in this story as well as given the Roman name Hades is given as a middle name.

Also Masrur is the child version of Masrur from Magi. Souma is from Food Wars and I'll just make a list on who the children are in a future list and where they are from.
