?: GAAAAH!

(? makes a desperate attempt to make it to the flag by full blasting the ball. It bounces everywhere eventually making its way to a flag.)

?: Yeah!

(Bad news; it was a fake.)

?: WHAT!?

(Screen cuts to black.)

Pyrrha: Hole Sixteen seems to be another maze.

Jaune: Great. More holes I can't find.

Leichter: Well, there has to be some secret that leads us to the actual hole.

Ruby: Well let's find it!

Mercury: This should be fun.

Blake: I am prepared.

Yang: Well let's go through the maze then. If you look up, there are a dozen flags.

Jaune: What? Oh…

Pyrrha: I'm guessing only one of them is the real one.

Leichter: Oh joy…

Mercury: No sense dawdling. Let's go!

(They all go through the maze. Each finds a hole and attempt to go in it, thinking it's the real one. The results?)

Leichter: Fake.

Ruby: Mine's fake too!

Yang: Not this one.

Mercury: Crap.

Jaune: Nope.

Pyrrha: Not here.

Blake: We all found fakes.

Ruby: Well let's find another one!

Yang: There's still two minutes left.

Blake: Should be simple.

(Of the five flags left unchecked, five different people find them. The other two are lost in the maze.)

Yang: I can't find any of them!

Mercury: Same.

Pyrrha: Wrong one.

Jaune: Nada.

Ruby: Didn't find it.

Leichter: It's Blake's

GambolGambit13 finished in 9 strokes.

Blake: Yep.

Ruby: IT'S STILL A RACE!

Yang: Quick! Everyone go to Blake's hole before Jaune gets there!

Jaune: I'm on the other side of the maze. You don't have to worry about that.

Blake: What you DO have to worry about is that there's only twenty-five seconds left.

Ruby: Not a problem for me!

Leichter: Not for me either.

CrescentRoseReaper finished in 21 strokes.

SangriaDespot1 finished in 22 strokes.

BlackheartBoots41 finished in 27 strokes.

PolarExpress001 finished in 28 strokes.

TheGreatArc finished in 30 strokes.

Mercury: Whew. Made it.

Pyrrha: That was exhilarating.

Jaune: Yeah. I'm sure it was.

Leichter: Wait, who hasn't finished yet.

Yang: I'M STILL STUCK, AND I DON'T KNOW WHERE TO GO!

Blake: Oh no, Yang…

Ruby: Sis, there's only 5 seconds left.

Yang: GAAAAH!

(Yang makes a desperate attempt to make it to the flag by full blasting the ball. It bounces everywhere eventually making its way to a flag.)

Yang: Yeah!

(Bad news; it was a fake.)

Yang: WHAT!?

(Laughter from everyone else.)

Ruby: Oh no…

CelicaDrake6 ran out of time.

Yang: I'm starting to see why Roderick left now.

Ruby: Yang? Are you okay?

Yang: I'm taking therapy for a reason.

Mercury: And I wonder why Roderick isn't.

Leichter: It's because we have each other. Sappy as it is.

Jaune: No, I think it's nice.

Blake: Which is your dead giveaway that it is sappy.

Leichter: I know. Also, check the scoreboard.

Ruby: It seems we have a new contender for the race.

Blake: Wow, I didn't realize I was so close now.

Jaune: Well, ANYTHING can change…

Yang: Hole Seventeen.

Pyrrha: The sign says; 'Memory Test 2.'

Mercury: Another memory test?

Blake: Wait, this isn't the second memory test we've done.

Leichter: Did the mapmaker make a mistake?

Ruby: Nope. I know what it means.

Jaune: What?

Ruby: It means we have to remember Hole Two.

Jaune: NO, NOT THE INVISIBLE RAMP AGAIN! NOOOOOOO!

(Everyone else laughs.)

Yang: Let's see if you're right.

Jaune: I DID IT! I MADE IT WITHOUT FALLING OFF.

(Jaune's ball resets.)

Jaune: WHAT!?

(Everyone laughs harder. More prominently Ruby. Mostly because…)

CrescentRoseReaper scored a Hole in One!

Leichter: Oh my god. I saw that!

Pyrrha: The hole in the ramp is the hole!

Yang: You're not supposed to tell us that!

Blake: We all saw it anyway.

Jaune: Great! The ONE TIME I actually manage to avoid the damn thing is the one time I WANT TO GO IN IT!

GambolGambit13 scored a Hole in One!

CelicaDrake6 scored a Hole in One!

TheGreatArc finished in 2 strokes.

PolarExpress001 scored a Hole in One!

SangriaDespot1 scored a Hole in One!

BlackheartBoots41 scored a Hole in One!

Pyrrha: Hole Eighteen. Last one. Oh…

Mercury: The sign says; 'There is no possible way to make it in any hole in this one. Enjoy some free strokes.'

Leichter: Wait, what?

Jaune: Great.

Yang: So, now what?

Ruby: Huh…

Blake: I can tell we're all confused.

(However, the reason Leichter and Ruby were saying those thing, is because they saw something. The promptly hit their ball toward it. There was a super small message that could only be read if you were close by. It said; 'Quickly read and reset. Then do nothing. Trust me. Tell nobody.' Leichter and Ruby promptly reset after reading it. By then, a few of the other players are hitting their balls around due to there being nothing better to do. All the while, Leichter and Ruby just sit there.)

Yang: This is fun.

Leichter: Yeah, fun…

Ruby Totally…

(Leichter and Ruby stifle their laughter.)

Mercury: Wait a minute… They know something.

Jaune: What did they do?

Blake: Wait, what's this?

(Blake saw the message. She only hit her ball once and happened to go towards it. She follows in Ruby and Leichter's footsteps.)

Yang: There's a minute and ten seconds left.

(When the timer hits one minute, a goal gate rises up from the original spawning point.)

SangriaDespot1 scored a Hole in One!

GambolGambit scored a Hole in One!

CrescentRoseReaper scored a Hole in One!

(Ruby laughs manically. Leichter and Blake laugh more subtly.)

Jaune: WHAT WAS THAT?

Pyrrha: What?

Yang: Are you serious.

Mercury: You've got to be fucking with me.

Leichter: Insult to injury, look at the original sign.

Mercury: Fuck this game.

(The sign changed it's message to; 'Oh. I guess it was possible if you did absolutely nothing. Well, NOW it's impossible.)

Pyrrha: I guess we just sit here and wait for our fate.

Jaune: Damn…

(Forty-five seconds later)

TheGreatArc ran out of time.

CelicaDrake6 ran out of time.

PolarExpress001 ran out of time.

BlackheartBoots41 ran out of time.

Ruby: And that's the end!

GambolGambit13: 242

PolarExpress001: 375

BlackheartBoots41: 377

CelicaDrake6: 450

Leichter: Good game guys.

Mercury: Yeah.

Jaune: Although, some of us had more fun than others.

Pyrrha: It was still an experience to behold.

Ruby: But next time, let's not pick a troll map.

Blake: Agreed.

Yang: Guess I'll do the outro. This has been Beacon Gaming! Tune in next week! Until then! Buh-bye!

(Everyone still in game waves to their face-cams. Then, the video becomes staticky, before cutting to Roderick…)

Roderick: Well. That was calming. Tetris really is therapeutic. But… I kind of want a bit of revenge. And it WILL be sweet!

(He clicks on a certain game as his screen goes to a hockey-masked wearing man.)

Roderick: Watch out! Here I come!

(Roderick laughs maniacally as the screen fades to white.)

NEXT WEEK: Roderick's Revenge. Friday the 13th.

Author's Notes.

Something tells me Roderick, despite feeling better, is still bitter about Golf-it. Now, I guess he's going to murder his friends in a video game as Jason Voorhees. Oh well, what can you do? I'm going to be blunt on why this is a day late. A storm came and blew out my internet for a few hours. Couldn't get this posted until I woke up. Which was now. That's it for Game One of Beacon Gaming. DO come back on 12/18 for Roderick's Revenge! But with that out of the way, a little talk about the story coming on 11/30.

Data Mine is a Danganronpa 2 and Under-Night In Birth crossover fanfic. I'll be posting the first chapter on 11/30, but I will be giving the prologue of the whole story. It should be up within an hour or two of this being posted. It's also a POV story, like RSCL, but unlike this one. Yes, I do have different writing styles for different story types. Please look forward to it. Until next time, I'll stay Enigmatic.
