LAST TIME ON TOTAL POKEMON COMEBACK! The campers all participated in their first ever challenge! A boat race!... I definitely didn't forget Dark Arcanine already did that for Revenge... pretty embarrassing since my OC was in that story.
However! That aside, the Ballistic Beartic won their first challenge and Jenny from the Flygons was given a little present... hehe!
But numerous questions must be answered! What was Kanaya going to ask the guys? What were the girls going to ask Luther? Will M.P.S ever remember Kanaya's name? Will I ever come up with better questions? Find out this episode!
It was now nighttime... just hours after Jenny was eliminated...
Flashback...
Cyrus, M.P.S., Laxish, and Kanaya sat at the beach.
"You want us to form an alliance?" Asks Laxish, raising an eyebrow as Kanaya nodded. "Yeah. It might be the only way to get rid of Honey."
"Why do you wanna get rid of her so badly?" Asks M.P.S.
"She's messing with my fami-... I mean my friends in the girls' dorm. She could have seriously hurt Mimi and to make things worse, Shelley is now focused on 'dueling' her!"
M.P.S and Laxish exchange looks. Cyrus pokes his head out shyly. "G-Guys, I think we should do it."
"Really Cyrus?"
"This alliance c-could help keep us in the game. Our team already overlooks us and the girls already trust Kanaya so much that they wouldn't expect us to be in an alliance." He explains. Laxish nods "T-That's... genius!"
"Really?"
"Yeah Cyrus! Way to use your head!" He laughs, patting his spines, immediately retracting his hand.
Kanaya smiles happily. "So are we in agreement?" She asks, holding out her hand.
The 3 boys put their hands on top of hers, grinning.
However, in the trees above, a figure hops down, seeing the whole thing...
In the present, at the Flygon Girls' Dorm...
It was a lot quieter without Jenny to bitch about every little thing. Rhonda sighs in relief. "Hey Mimi."
Mimi jumps upon hearing her name, turning to Rhonda. "Y-Yeah...?"
"Do you hear that?"
"...No?"
"Exactly." She chuckled "No bitch to complain about our flaws."
"Or our useful teammates!" Giggled Candy.
Honey rolls her eyes at that, but stays quiet to listen.
"Guys, I feel bad for Luther... I had no idea he had-" She is immediately shushed by Rhonda. She whispers something to Mimi out of earshot, and the disguise pokemon nods, shaking the rag doll head up and down. It results as the head toppling over, making it look like Mimi snapped her neck.
Candy and Rhonda exchange nervous looks and try to fix Mimi's head. Behind them, Shelley approaches.
"Pikachu!"
Mimi slowly turns around, shaking. Her neck is fixed however. "Umm... y-yes?"
"You have no need to fear the vile lizard anymore! For I will slay it!" She announces. Candy widens her eyes "Woah! You sound like an actual knight!"
"Yes! Because I am one!"
Mimi and Candy gasp "Really?!"
Rhonda chuckles and rolls her eyes. Honey scoffs and Kanaya lays on the top bunk to listen.
000
Rhonda: No offense to Shelley, but she's... what's the word... delusional. But, if it keeps Mimi happy...
000
Kanaya: It's hard to believe, but after taking a look into Shelley's head... oh Arceus.
000
Shelley: Yes. I am a knight. I have joined this competition to slay the evil beasts Lunala and Solgaleo! Maybe Honey even, if she continues to belittle us...
000
"So, how are you here?" Asks Mimi. Shelley hops on the bed triumphantly standing on the end. Mimi and Candy look up at her.
"Twas a dark evening at thy kingdom's forest... not a bird in the sky nor bug in thy tree... but alas, I was not alone." The 2 girls listen intently. "I was on my evening rounds, when I noticed... a glimmer in the treeline. I went to investigate and found myself face-to-face with none other than Celebi!" She announces.
Candy beams "You met Celebi!?"
"Not only did I meet her, I pursued her, ready to perform metal claw... but alas... twas an act of trickery on behalf of the vile legendary." She growled.
"What happened?"
"I cornered her at a hillpass, ready to strike. But Celebi had another plan. Being a manipulator and traveller of time she warped herself and me to this time period!"
Candy and Mimi continue to listen with excitement. Honey groans, covering her ears.
000
Honey: That loon is soooo going next!
000
In the window however, Tiamat was peering inside, taking notes and listening with intent outside.
000
Tiamat: Before you jump to conclusions, I am not peeking. I am observing for information. *takes out notebooks and starts writing* Mimi; Shy, Candy; energetic and gullible, Shelley;...delusional.
000
In a random cave...
Luther was inside, using a blowtorch to weld pieces of metal together at the entrance to the cave, making a large door. He sighs, rethinking the event from before...
Flashback...
Rhonda, Candy, Mimi, and Luther were in the junkyard after Jenny was eliminated.
"So, what did you wanna ask me?"
Mimi sighs "W-Why are you always in t-the junkyard... or wherever you go... even the guys are g-g-getting suspicious about you." She asks. Luther looks down "I... umm..."
"Don't worry, if it's personal we won't tell anyone!" Giggled Candy.
Luther smiles slightly.
"Aspergers Syndrome."
"What?"
"I have Aspergers Syndrome... yndrome... synd... ro-DAMNIT!" He exclaims, hitting a piece of metal in frustration. Candy and Mimi look confused. "What is that?"
"It's a mental disorder." Said Rhonda, sitting on a small stack of tires. "It's like autism, but on a higher level. Symptoms include inability to socialize properly, repetition of words or phrases, and a constant need to isolate themselves."
Mimi, Luther, and Candy stare in shock at how much she knew. Rhonda stares back, indifferent. "What? I need to read something." She says, pulling out a book on mental disorders.
Luther sighs "Either way she's right. I'm not a fan of being around a lot of people. I wanna be in a homey place. In other words, this junkyard." He explains. Candy smiles "Don't worry! We'll tell the others-"
"No! Don't! I don't want them to know I have Aspergers!" He tells them. "I already have enough people calling me retarded back home!"
The girls exchange looks before sighing. "Okay, but if we don't tell them the truth, they'll get more suspicious of you! You might get eliminated!"
"Just tell them I like being alone."
Candy and Rhonda nod, but Mimi looks at him. "I don't t-think you're retarded. I think y-y-you're... really smart."
Luther smiles at this "Thanks, Mimi. You girls should get going. We need plenty of sleep for tomorrow."
In the present... Luther sighs, lifting up his welding mask.
000
Luther: I have pride that the girls can keep my secret.
000
In the Flygon Boy's Dorm...
Hairu continues to do push ups, with M.P.S and Laxish on his back. Hazel raises an eyebrow "Has he been doing that all night?"
"Yep." Said Jester, rubbing his eyes. He looks at M.P.S and Laxish "Have you ever had stuff like this happen with Mew and Vic... Dicktini?
"Oh Jester, young padawan... we've seen things we can't unsee." Says Laxish, shaking his head. M.P.S nods. "An Arcanine that could seduce women just by talking, an embarrassing British Hitmonchan, an Umbreon that had 2 stalkers and as a result nearly lost his mind, a stalker Gardevoir who slept with a friend's husband, a Chandelure and a Mismagius who constantly sucked face, a Pikachu... or Raichu who always gets voted off second, at least 3 to 4 badasses, and we've actually experienced death during a tour to a haunted mansion." Lists Laxish. The boys all just stare in either amazement or fright.
"Did I leave anything out?"
"Probably, but I doubt we have enough time to go over them all."
Hairu looks at them "You guys must be pretty tough to have dealt with all that."
Laxish stifles a laugh "Tough? We are anything but tough."
Cyrus is shaking in fear "I'm scared..."
"Of what?" Asks Jester.
"What we might go through during this show."
Hazel scoffs "Can't be as bad as what they went through!"
Hairu rolls his eyes.
000
Hairu: Rule number one of not wanting things to go wrong; don't say things probably won't go wrong.
000
Hazel: I'm sure! Besides, if things do go wrong, my magic will get us through it all!
000
In the Beartic Boys' Dorm...
"A toast to Xiahul and the Ballistic Beartic!" Laughs Randall, holding a bottle of cola.
Everyone klinks their drinks with a laugh, minus Xiahul, who just stood there with a bottle of soda standing at his feet.
Draco chuckles, taking a swig of soda.
000
Draco: Alright, I'll admit, not EVERYONE on this team is boring or useless. But I'll have to get rid of the threats at some point.
000
Xiahul: *staring into the camera, then suddenly shifts and starts to speak* I am glad to have made my teammates so proud. They seem to be outstanding pokemon, themselves, and they did a wonderful job on the boat... *pauses* ...However, that isn't to say it wasn't without its flaws; my friend Tesla's was much more stable. *he suddenly freezes up, staring back into the camera*
000
Tiamat arrives in the cabin, carrying his notebook using psychic. "I'm satisfied with the information I have gotten." He chuckled. Randall narrows his eyes at him. "What kind of information?"
"Information on the opposing females."
Carson spits out his drink. "What!?"
"How did you get information on them?" Asks Jaxxon.
"The same way I got information on our female teammates. Looking through the back window and listening for information." He explains as if there was nothing wrong with what he just said.
"You were eavesdropping!?" Exclaims Carson
"No. Observing,"
Will giggled "Guys, wanna hear a joke?"
Jaxxon glares at the Phantump. "Now isn't the time Will..."
"But-"
"I said no!"
The ghost pouts. Jaxxon turns his focus back to the Sigilyph. "Are you nuts!? What if they caught you!?"
"I can assure you they never saw me. Besides, I got plenty of information that could be of use to us." He tells them, showing him his notebook. Randall takes a look, but his angry expression softens. "Guys, I think he might have actually helped us..." Jaxxon turns to him, shocked.
"Randy?"
"Take a look." He sets the book down on a bunk and they guys all look. There was a list of all of the competitors' names, and each one had at least a paragraph or 2 of information.
"Flygons team - Females..." Draco reads aloud. "The females all appear to be in disagreement with the Salazzle. Mimi, Candy, and Rhonda appear to be close friends, Kanaya prefers to stay silent and Shelley is delusional."
"Delusional?" Asks Will.
Tiamat nods "She thinks she is a knight from medieval times. So far only Mimi and Candy seem to believe her. Plus Shelley and Honey have a rivalry."
Draco continues to read. "Flygons team - Males. Hairu was stressing out because he failed last challenge, but has plenty of physical strength. Could be a physical threat. Jester is indifferent, if not standard. Cyrus is a pacifist. Laxish and M.P.S are veterans in these kinds of shows and have plenty of experience. Hazel is not very intelligent, possible comic relief, and strives for attention, and Luther is barely ever in the cabins. Followed him one night out to the junkyard and found him collecting scrap. Seems to show strong signs of Aspergers Syndrome."
The team exchanges looks. "We might actually be able to use this to our advantage..."
Carson looks dumbfounded "Guys! This is wrong!"
Xiahul nods silently in agreement.
"Wanna hear a joke now?" Asks Will, grinning. Everyone but Carson, Will, and Xiahul groan.
000
Carson: This is wrong! Tiamat's invading their privacy! What's worse is that most of the guys support him! So what if it gives us an advantage, it's still wrong!
000
Carson takes the book, frowning. "You guys can't be serious!" He catches a glimpse of the book and sees Tiffany's name.
'Talks with Hex and Heira, trying to get Alexa to talk, seems to have a crush on someone.'
He starts reading the 'physical traits' section and Immediatly turns red.
000
Carson: *is blushing red in the confessional, but looked furious* I don't normally get mad, but Tiamat... you've gone WAY too far!
000
Carson slams the book on the bed, blushing furiously and covering his face. "Tiamat you're not an observer, you're a pervert!"
"Say what you want, it will help us in the long run."
Draco looks at Carson, snarling. "You wanna stay in this game? Use this info."
Carson hurries out the door, slamming it behind him. Randall and Jaxxon exchange looks before Will giggles and floats slowly out the door as well. Xiahul walks over to Tiamat, facing him with little expression.
"Tiaxivizat, what you are doing is disgusting and unforgivable. These words that you pass off as 'information' are other Pokemons' privacy. Using other pokemons' secrets to your advantage is not only wrong as Carisseaozn said, but it is also cheating." He drones, watching the Sigilyph with an unamused look.
"I don't work well with cheaters." He finished. Tiamat chuckles "Mr. Xiahul, in games like these we need to know our enemy by any means."
Xiahul closes his eyes. "...I see. I hope you know your plan will not result the way you imagine it to, Tiahzulath." He droned, hovering out the door.
Tiamat sighs as his team gathers around the book once more, excluding Jaxxon, who sat on his bunk.
000
Jaxxon: Xiahul's right. This is messed up. But... Randy's already on board and once he's set his mind to something you can't stop him.
000
Out in a clearing in the forest... Carson was floating in circles, trying not to think about how his team was cheating. Will floated with him, trying to cheer him up with morbid jokes. Of course, they didn't work.
"How do you kill a Mr. Mime?"
"..."
"Shoot him in the juggler!"
Will is struggling not to laugh at his own joke, but Carson suddenly stops and drops to the ground, motionless. He closes his eyes with a frown plastered on his face.
Will looks at the bell and tilts his head. "Carson?" He pokes the bell with his little, stubby arms. No response.
Out of nowhere, Xiahul shuffles over to the 2 pokemon and turns to Carson, looking down with an emotionless gaze.
"...Where does the Haunter go to buy its milk and eggs?" He asks. Carson gave no response, but Will tilts his head. "Where, Mr. Bird?"
"...The Ghost-ery store." He answers, emotionless. Will bursts out laughing, holding his stomach. Carson shook slightly, but the frown was still there and his eyes were closed.
"What do you call it when a Gengar gets too close to the campfire?" He asks, Will excitedly lifted his head up, recovering from his laughing fit.
"...a very toasty ghosty." The ghost tree fell to the ground, laughing as hard as he could. Carson shook some more, and a stifled laugh was heard. His eyes seemed to be forcing themselves closed and the frown was wavering.
"What's a Gourgeist's favorite fruit? BOOberries. What do Gastly send their friends on vacation? GHOSTcards. When does a Spiritomb eat breakfast? In the MOANing."
Will was losing it. He was rolling around on the ground in laughter. "S-Stop! I can't breathe!"
Carson was shaking violently, his frown was wavering more and more.
"Where does a Mimikyu go to get stamps?"
Carson continued to shake.
"...the GHOST office."
At this point, Carson lifts off the ground, laughing loudly. His frown disappears and is replaced with a huge smile.
Xiahul then hovers back into the shadows, without a word.
000
Carson: *catching his breath* Huff... huff... *he widens his eyes and covers his mouth, trying to stifle a laugh* ...the ghost office.
000
Will: *is panting and giggling* I'm gonna freaking barf...
000
Meanwhile, in the Beartic Girls' Cabin...
All the girls, minus Ally, were talking amongst themselves in the middle of their room. They sat on the floor in a circle, and they were playing truth or dare. Since most of the girls were shy to begin with, it was more of 'Truth or Truth'.
Tiffany spun the bottle in the middle of them, and the bottle pointed to Hex who groans, puffing her cheeks out. Tiffany grins "Truth or dare Hex?"
"Truth." She says immediately.
"Which of the boys here do you like?" She asks with a sly smirk.
"Well, most of them are likeable. There's Carson, Jaxxon-" She starts listing.
Tiffany cuts her off "No. Who do you like-like?" She corrects her.
Tiffany, Felicia, and Paradiso grin, Heira just looks at Hex, and Alexa just watches with interest. Hex, realizing she has no other choice, sighs in defeat.
"...I like Will." She admits, covering her blushing face.
"Will!?"
000
Hex: *sighs, lovestruck* Little Willie... he's just so cute, and funny, and gullible. I know his magic is just ghost powers, but seeing his face light up with happiness is just so fun to watch!
000
Hex spins the bottle and it lands on Alexa. She immediately backs away, frowning in embarassment. Ally sees this and rolls her eyes before going back to sleep.
000
Ally: Alexa's a wimp, Tiffanys a bi-polar bitch, Hex is a weirdo, Paradiso hasn't done anything productive, Heira barely talks, and Felicia just does what everyone tells her to! I swear I hate my team...
000
Meanwhile, Tiamat was outside listening.
000
Tiamat: *writing in notebook*
000
The next morning... in the Flygon Girls' Dorm...
They hear a loud, horrified scream. The girls spring up to see what's wrong. They see Honey frantically looking under her bed for something.
"Honey... whats going on?" Groans Rhonda, rubbing her eyes. Honey responds by wrapping her tail around Rhonda's torso and lifting her up. Honey looks at her, her eyes blazing with blind fury.
"WHERE IS IT!?" She hisses loudly, tightening her grip on Rhonda who was struggling to breathe. However Kanaya used psychic to unwind her tail and release Rhonda.
Kanaya glared at her. "What the heck is the yelling about!?"
"MY NECKLACE IS GONE! SOMEONE STOLE IT!" She growls, continuing to search under her bed. Kanaya raises an eyebrow. "Your necklace?"
"Yes! My necklace! I left it on the nightstand last night when I went to bed and now it's gone!" She hissed. Kanaya crosses her arms "Well we were all asleep!"
"Yeah! I didn't take anything!" Said Rhonda furiously.
"Liar!" Roared Honey, the flames on her tail blazing. "Your bunk is the closest to the nightstand, so you must have taken it!"
"That proves nothing! It just proves how quick you are to accuse people!"
Honey crosses her arms and continues looking. In the window however, Tiamat chuckles as he watched the event.
000
Tiamat: Jumps to conclusions and blames those around her. Violently harasses said pokemon. Interesting. *holds up her necklace using psychic*
000
However, Xiahul used telepathy to see into Tiamat's mind. Upon seeing what he had done, he shakes his head in disapproval.
000
Xiahul: I wonder if Tiahunxhiz has ever heard of a beautiful thing called karma... *he then freezes up and his eyes glow blue as he stares at the camera*
000
Later, the campers were ordered to go to the mess hall. The Beartic Boys got there first, sitting at the tables. However Carson, Will, and Xiahul sit on the far end, away from the other teammates.
Then suddenly the doors to the mess hall fly open and before they know it the boys were surrounded by the visibly angry mob.
"Boys..." starts Tiffany, crossing her arms. "How have you been?" She asks, her voice trembling with anger.
Randall narrows his eyes at her. "Uhh... good?"
"Good." Says Hairu, crossing his arms.
The boys, minus Xiahul, all stare in confusion. Kanaya looks at them, disappointed. "Is there something you want to tell us all?"
The 3 boys exchange glances before shaking their heads.
They gain numerous glares, then Paradiso spoke up. "A little birdie told us that you boys are supporting a peeping tom!"
The boys, minus Xiahul, all widen their eyes.
000
Xiahul: *stares at the camera* I suppose he'd never heard of karma.
000
"H-How did you-"
"A strange voice talked to us! Might be a psychic type!" Hazel tells them. Mimi turns to him "W-We weren't supposed to tell them that."
The boys, minus Jaxxon and Will, glare at Xiahul and Carson.
000
Randall: *sighs* He said a psychic type... so the only suspects are Xiahul and Carson.
000
The hosts all burst into the mess hall, grinning. "Good morning campers! Ready for breakfast?" He grin fades upon seeing the Flygons and the Beartic Girls swarming the boys. "Woah Woah Woah! Hold it!"
Suddenly, everyone is spread out and pressed against the wall like they were magnets. However the Beartic Boys stayed in place.
"Don't start killing eachother yet! The challenge hasn't even started!"
Tiffany was struggling, clearly furious. "Let me go! That bastard is stalking us and listening to private information of ours!"
Necrozma rolls his eyes. "Well if it's so 'private' than Tiamat wouldn't know about it. Also, this sounds more like a YOU problem."
Tiffany's eye twitches as everyone is seated using psychic. Paradiso glared at the boys. "What makes you think eavesdropping on us is a good idea!?"
Draco groans "It's not just you. He's gotten a lot of good information on the Flygons too." He said. Tiamat nods. "Some of this info we could use."
"So what!? It's wrong dude!" Says Hex angrily.
Many bowls are set in front of them. The food inside... or whatever it was... was grey, mushy, and looked more like a failed art project.
"...I think mine just moved." Squeaked Alexa, pushing it away.
Luther picks it up and eats it... and the bowl. Upon eating it, he immediately froze in place and fell to the floor. The campers stare at the hosts, completely dumbfounded.
"Enjoy!" Giggles Lunala.
000
Luther: *puking in the confessional*
000
Jester: Okay, Luther couldn't hold it down and he eats actual trash on a daily basis. If he can't eat it, I doubt normal pokemon can.
000
Hazel rolls his eyes. "He's probably just weak from last challenge." He says, taking a bite. He freezes up and collapses to the floor, just like Luther.
M.P.S and Laxish however downed it without a problem. Honey's eye twitches. "How can you-"
"We've eaten this stuff so much, we're used to it." Says Laxish. He holds up his bowl. "Seconds please."
Hairu gulps, but takes a deep breath and takes a bite. After forcing a swallow, his eye twitches and he forces a smile. "See?" He says through gritted teeth. "Even I'm getting used to it..."
Heira sees this and rolls her eyes.
000
Hairu: *puking in the confessional*
000
Solgaleo chuckles. "Eat up. You'll need a full stomach for today's challenge!" Jester raises his hand.
"What is it gecko?"
"How can we eat this if even Luther couldn't." He asks, eyeing Luther, who was twitching on the ground.
"Hey. Fatass 1, Fatass 2, and Mr. Muscles over here ate it. So there's a way." He growled. Carson sighs. "I don't think I can hold this down. What do you think Will?" He got no response.
"Bud?" He turns to see Will face down on the table, unconscious.
Shelley hops onto the table, looking at the 'food'. She cringes "This reminds me of the slop fed to the wrong doers..." Honey grins. "If you know it so well, why don't you have a bite?"
Shelley glares at her. "I shall do no such thing."
30 minutes later...
The unconscious campers woke up, and the hosts approach the center of the mess hall. "So! How was your food?"
The campers groan in response.
"Great!" Beams Necrozma. "Now for today's challenge! Follow me!" He announces, walking towards the door.
They arrive in a grassy plain. In front of them was a long, red line that divided the territory of 2 identical houses.
Lunala giggled happily. "Our challenge is a fun game of capture the flag!" She announces happily. Some of the campers lift their heads up happily. Will laughs "Yay! Will there be death involved?" He asks suddenly.
"It depends."
Will giggles silently, while Jaxxon glared. "Will this is not a laughing matter."
"Exactly. You're supposed to be upset, dammit!" Complains Solgaleo.
"That's not what I... nevermind."
Necrozma clears his throat. "Alright, this is your standard game of capture the flag. Try to make it over to the other team's base and steal their flag. Place the stolen flag on the pedestal inside your base and if it glows green, you win!"
"...That's it?" Asks Hazel.
"Yep. Go."
"But-"
"I SAID GO!"
Both teams scramble to their forts. Necrozma stands on the red line. "Moves are allowed to keep the enemy away from your base. If someone has the flag, the holder can't use moves. If the holder is hit with a move or is tagged by an enemy team member, the holder will be teleported to their respective base and the flag will be returned the same way." He explains.
"You have 5 minutes to discuss a plan."
With the Beartic...
Tiffany raises her hand. "I volunteer Tiamat to capture the flag!"
Tiamat shakes his eye. "No. You have better combat skill than I do."
Draco nods "Besides, ladies first."
Randall growls. "Alright, shut up. We need to actually think. We have 14 people, so 7 can guard and 7 can try to take their flag."
Jaxxon raises his hand. "I'll attack." Randall nods "Same here."
Will giggled "I'll go!" Hex raises a tentacle immediately "Me too!"
Paradiso raises her hand happily. "I'll do it!"
"Alright, that's 5..."
Tiamat looks at Randall. "I volunteer Tiffany. She's fast, knows guillotine, and her nimble body will be hard to hit with ranged attacks."
Tiffany turns away, scoffing. Carson glared daggers at the Sigilyph. Xiahul stared at Tiamat. "I volunteer Tiahunthiz."
Draco rolls his eyes. "Aww, is Xiahul mad about us having an advantage?" He gave no response.
Tiamat chuckles. "Xiahul, I am anything but offensive. I only know psychic, tailwind, light screen, and reflect. If anything I'm a supporting role."
Xiahul nods "Exactly. Tailwind can help make our offensive move even faster, light screen and reflect can protect them from both physical and special attacks, and psychic can give you an actual offensive move. You could support our offense." He turns his head, staring directly at Randall and Draco. "Don't you agree?"
They both exchange looks before giving a hopeless sigh. "Tiamat and Tiffany are on the offensive."
Tiamat glares at the expressionless bird. "Wait! He's a xatu, right? Can't you see the future?"
"Yes."
"Well, what will happen if I participate in this challenge offensively?"
"I'm sorry, I am temporarily blind at the moment. I can't see the outcome."
"Well tell me once you can see again."
"Sorry, I predict I will be blind by then too."
Tiffany, Carson, Will, Hex, Paradiso, and Alexa snicker. Even Heira couldn't help but giggle at this.
000
Tiamat: *writing in his notebook* Xiahul; can be sarcastic and a smart aleck when he wants to be.
000
Ally groans "Just get on with it. Make the whiney Pawniard go and be done with it." Tiffany starts towards the Houndour, but is held back by Carson. He whispers to her "Don't listen to her. You're perfect just the way you are."
She blushes madly, looking up at his smiling face. "Thanks..."
000
Tiffany: *sighs* Alright, I'll admit I have a little crush on Carson... just a little...
000
Felicia walks over to Randall. "Is there anything I can do?"
"Guard. We have enough attackers."
She nods. "Yes sir."
000
Felicia: Hmm... so far Tiamat seems to be doomed to leave. He'll be outvoted 10 to 3 if we lose this. But... he could be useful. If somehow the votes got... manipulated.
000
With the Flygons...
"I volunteer to attack!" Announces Hairu, striking a pose. Rhonda sighs, facepalming. "I'll go too I guess."
Cyrus raises a tentacle shakily. Jester looks at him "What is it Cyrus?"
"W-Will this involve... fighting?" He asks. Jester nods. "Y-Yes, Cyru-"
"No!" He suddenly shouts, closing his tentacles. "I'm not gonna hurt anybody!"
Honey growls in annoyance.
000
Honey: Cyrus is a useful pokemon in terms of offense and defense together. Just put him in the doorway and they can't get through. But the kid is a wuss! If he so much as pokes someone with his spines, he'll start sobbing and let his guard down.
000
Candy looks at him, smiling. "Hey, you don't have to fight if you don't want to." She says. The brutal star twitches a bit. A flap moves to the side, only to where you could see his eyes. "Promise?"
She giggled "I promise. You can stay in here." Kanaya smiled at this and Cyrus blushed under his tentacles.
"Alright, so Hairu and Rhonda will attack." Said Kanaya. "Anyone else?"
"I'll go." Said Shelley confidently.
Hazel grins with a giggle.
000
Hazel: I think I know how to win this...
000
Hazel hops up on Hairu's head. "I'll lead the charge!"
"Who died and made you leader?" Asked Laxish.
"Noone died! I'm just gonna lead us to victory!"
Everyone exchanges nervous looks.
"CAMPERS! GET READY!"
Tiffany, Tiamat, Paradiso, Jaxxon, Randall, Hex, and Will stand in front of their team's base. Whilst Rhonda, Hazel, Hairu, Honey, and Shelley stand in front of their base.
"Ready... set... go!"
Rhonda darts forward, opposed to the other team who attacked all together with Tiamat in the back.
000
Shelley: We decided to attack and defend in waves, slowly weakening their offense.
000
Will grins "Magic!" He exclaims, using Forest Curse on Rhonda. However, Rhonda's club ignites as she spins it. She throws it at Will and the Flame Wheel successfully makes contact.
Will is knocked back onto the ground, and tries to get up, but faints. Hex turns and stares "WILLIE!" She floats over to him. Tiffany hops up and tries to use Metal Claw, but Rhonda blocks it with her bone. She pushes her back and the flames ignite again, throwing another flame wheel.
Tiamat uses reflect on Tiffany, but the attack still made contact. Tiffany is knocked back like Will. However, she gets up this time... only to be whacked in the face with bone club, effectively fainting her.
Ally growls, facepawing.
000
Ally: 2 out of 7 pokemon knocked out by the same Pokemon.

Rhonda looks up, only to be hit with water gun. Hex glares angrily at Rhonda. "NOONE HURTS MY WILLIE!" She roars demonically. Rhonda pants, getting up. "Heh... thanks to that grass add-on I'm still kicking." She gets in a combat stance, grinning.
"Show me what you got."
The Beartic split up. Tiamat stays at the border, Randall runs left, Jaxxon runs right, and Paradiso runs for the house.
Tiamat however is somehow launched back into his base. The remaining Beartic freeze to stare and process what just happened. Tiamat lays unconscious next to the door of their base.
On the border where he used to be stood Shelley. Randall growls "I'll take you on you little-" suddenly Shelley disappears. Randall widens his eyes, looking around for the Aron. Suddenly, he is attacked in the stomach. Shelley had used metal claw.
Randall stumbles and looks down at her. "You wanna go bitch?" He asks, holding up his claws. Shelley glares. "I do not want to go. I want to fight!"
"Whatever, bring it shorty."
In those few moments that Jaxxon stared at Tiamat's body, he hears a voice behind him. "Pay attention dear~"
He is suddenly engulfed in flames. He jumps forward, turning to see Honey. She giggled. "You need to learn how to treat a lady~"
Jaxxon growls, holding up his fists.
Paradiso hops into their base through the window, landing in front of M.P.S. he stamps his foot, about to charge. However he is immediately hit with drain punch and immediately faints. Cyrus faints just seeing this and Laxish backs away slowly with Luther, Jester, and Mimi.
Candy and Kanaya stand in front of their flag, arms crossed. Paradiso chuckles. "Cool! More practice!"
RHONDA VS HEX
Both Pokemon were exhausted. Despite Rhonda's type disadvantage, she was still very tough to fight for Hex. Rhonda was exhausted and soaking wet from Hex's water moves.
Rhonda pants, using her bone for support so she doesn't collapse. "You know... you're pretty decent..."
"Same to you."
Both girls laugh, before dropping to the ground simultaneously.
RANDALL VS SHELLEY
Randall was having a hard time beating the small pokemon. Despite her size, she was strong. Too strong. Fast too. Every time he managed to hit her she always used recover when he wasn't looking.
He growls ferociously, looking around. "Come out, come out, wherever you are." He listens intently...
He holds his hands together and delivers a fire blast to his left. The Aron flies backwards and crashes into a tree. She drops unconscious.
He grins, panting with a chuckle. He turns to go fight with Jaxxon and widens his eyes to see Honey standing over Jaxxon. She licks her lips.
"Be a good boy and stay down~" she giggled. Jaxxon lays motionless and pale. Randall's eye twitches.
000
Randall: *cracks knuckles* Do I have to smack a bitch?!
000
Honey looks to her left, only to be engulfed in a fire blast. She stumbles back, and sees Randall, who looked like he was about to kill someone. Which he probably was.
Meanwhile, in the Beartics' Base...
They had noone coming in, so Carson, Xiahul, Alex, and Heira were playing a game of I-Spy. Xiahul constantly said he spied something blue, but noone could guess what it was.
Alexa sighs "Let's just pass Carson..."
"No, no, Ive got this..." He says, tapping his head. He leans against the door, thinking.
"KNOCK KNOCK!"
The door flies open, and Carson is sent straight across the room into a wall. The team turns to see Hairu, with Hazel standing proudly on his head. Heira sees this and sighs.
"Hello Hairu."
He laughs proudly "Heira! Sis! Made any good friends yet?" He asks her. Heira gets up, walking towards her brother. "You could say that. Made any girlfriends yet?" She asks sarcastically.
"Ouch, almost felt something sis." He winks at her, to which she groans in response.
Suddenly, Hazel jumps off his head and makes a beeline for the flag, however he had Alexa, Ally, and Draco on his left and Xiahul and Felicia on his right.
All but Xiahul fire off an attack at the fox... and surprisingly, each attack ended up missing and hitting another teammate for a one hit KO. Hazel giggled.
000
Hazel: I don't mean to brag but I'm pretty lucky. I don't know how or why, I just am.
000
Hazel grabs the flag and skips out the door. Hairu grins cockily at Heira. "Let's have a friendly little match..."
PARADISO VS KANAYA AND CANDY
Paradiso successfully subdued Kanaya, but was having trouble hitting the energetic raichu, who constantly was dodging her attacks. "Come on! Hold still!"
Candy giggled "If I did that, then you'd hit me!"
Paradiso gives a growl.
RANDALL VS HONEY
The 2 pokemon were evenly matched, both were exhausted and panting. Randall growls under his breath.
"Stupid bitch is sneaky... if I let my guard down, I'm toast." He looks around and sees a little bracelet laying at his feet. He looks at Honey and remembers something...
Flashback...
Back at the cabin Draco, Randy, and Tiamat were going over the information on the Flygons.
"Alright, so Hazel thinks he's the world's greatest thing. Find something we can use!" Groans Draco. Randall flips through the book angrily.
He then sees the section on females.
"Honey?"
"Their Salazzle. Crafty, sneaky, deceitful, and charismatic. To the male persuasion that is." Explains Tiamat. "So far the main weakness with her is her jewelry."
"Why her jewelry?" Asks Draco.
"She can't seem to part with it. She goes into a blind rage when she loses even a simple necklace."
Randall grins and picks it up. "Hey!" The Salazzle looks up and stiffens upon seeing Randall tossing her bracelet up and down in his hand. He chuckles darkly.
Her eye twitches as she lunges forward at him, only for Randall to respond by using darkest lariat, effectively launching her into the wall of her base. He pants and looks at his husband before collapsing next to him, exhausted.
HEIRA VS HAIRU
The twins somehow managed to completely destroy the Beartic Fort. Neither sibling had the upper hand and they were evenly matched.
Heira managed to block Hairu's X-Scissor. "Wow, you boast all the time and this is what you can deliver?"
He laughs "I don't see you doing much either!" He taunts, jumping back.
Suddenly...
"STOP EVERYTHING! THE FURIOUS FLYGONS WIN!"
At the Flygons' Fort...
Hazel grinned proudly, standing in front of the pedestal. "Who captured the flag? Me! This guy!" He giggled. Candy was panting in exhaustion next to him and Paradiso lays unconscious, singed.
The teams all gather, but numerous interns carry the injured to the infirmary. So only Heira and Xiahul stood for the Beartic, and Hazel, Hairu, Cyrus, Laxish, Mimi, Luther, Jester, and Candy stood for the Flygons.
Necrozma chuckles. "Beartic, think long and hard about who you're voting out tonight."
000
Heira: This whole challenge just gave proof that cheaters never win. I hope you're listening Tiamat.
000
In the Infirmary...
The Beartic all gathered there. All 2 of them.
"We lost." Says Heira, lowering her head.
"Yeah, we kind of got that." Said Ally.
"Guys, this whole thing just proves cheaters never win."
Randall rolls his eyes. "Here we go."
Tiffany growls. "At least we know who's leaving tonight." She said darkly as everyone looked at Tiamat. The Sigilyph looks at Xiahul.
"Do you see me leaving in the future, Xiahul?"
"What? Sorry I'm temporarily deaf."
Later, at the bonfire...
The Beartic all sit around the campfire. Necrozma grins happily. "Feeling good?"
"Screw you." Responds Draco.
"Great! Go cast your votes!"
000
Carson: Just like Heira said; cheaters never win.
000
Draco: Can't decide between Xiahul or Carson...
000
Tiffany: Later Tiamat, you have a restraining order in your future.
000
Lunala giggles as she holds a plate of berries using psychic.
"Okie dokie! If you get a berry you're safe!"
"...Tiffany!"
"...Hex!"
"...Will!"
"...Heira!"
"...Jaxxon!"
"...Felicia!"
"...Ally!"
"...Paradiso!"
"...Randall!"
"...Draco!"
Xiahul, Carson, Tiamat, and Alexa all wait patiently.
"...Carson!"
He sighs in relief, catching his berry.
"...Tiamat?" Says Lunala, uncertain. Everyone stares "What!?"
"Shut up. The votes are fair and square." Growled Solgaleo.
"A bunch of lies are what those votes are!" Yells Ally.
"I said shut it. Now the final berry goes to..."
"...Xiahul. Alexa, you're outta here."
The Glaceon sighs sadly. "I understand, I know I'm not that useful..."
"None of us voted for you though!"
Tiamat takes out his notebook.
000
Tiamat: Reaction to unsuspected vote switch; panic and confusion.
000
Alexa stands on the dock, frowning.
"Don't worry Alexa! You get a present!" Giggles Lunala as the Delibird comes back. Alexa looks up and takes the present, confused. "T-Thanks..."
The Delibird waddled away as Alexa read the card.
'To: An Ice Girl (who needs social therapy)
Love: Lunala'
"...Wha-"
Before she could ask, the present explodes, launching her away from the island. Necrozma laughs happily.
"Damn thats never gonna get old!" He chuckles before turning to the camera.
"So, unexpected am I right? Alexa's gone and Tiamat the observer stays for another day. Tune in next time to see if he actually leaves on Total! Pokemon! Comeback!"
