A/N: Chris said that this next challenge was going to be "explosive". Pretty concerning!
Reviews:
1602jaw: Thanks for the picks! I haven't officially decided anything regarding those picks yet but I will keep them in mind whenever I start the new season. Also, I knew coming into the episode that when I put in Pig that I wanted to do Viewer Mail. The parts I wanted to figure out was where it was going to happen and how the segment would be handled. I thought about Chris coming in to interrupt it, not liking how he interrupted the show, but I ultimately decided to go with a Deadpool cameo because why not lol.
G-Man 2.0: Thanks for the review! Also, it's fine if you suggest a large amount of characters. If you noticed in the last chapter 1_true_believer_3000(AO3) had a ton of characters in the challenge. They suggested a good bit. Granted, I don't think it'll be possible for everyone'scharacter suggestions to get in without it being a cluttered mess, but guest appearances and the upcoming special mentioned in the last challenge is a good way to have more play some type of role, even if its minor. Some of the characters I originally wanted in as a contestant but scrapped(e.g. Vinnie) were in the previous challenge too.
UnchartedCoast2 and Guest: Thank you for your suggestions as well!
That guy: Glad you're enjoying it! Yeah, the suggestions are pouring in. Really appreciate them all!
Some dude: If Eddy would have done it earlier, then yes. But he waited too late so no elimination happened. Also, thanks for the suggestions!
As an aside, I'm really liking the suggestions so far! Still haven't made up my mind on who's officially in though.

"Last time on Total Drama Island Multiverse Edition! The two teams competed in a hunting challenge, where here it was a reversal of roles. The campers were the hunted! The Lions won this part of the challenge and had an advantage in the second part, a race to the finish where after climbing to the top, two contestants would race to the finish! While being chased by Chef on a bulldozer!"
Footage of the different campers being hunted along with the race in the second part of the challenge was shown.
"Even with not having an advantage, the Soaring Phoenixes took victory in this challenge! And a nice meal containing their favorite foods! The Fighting Lions unfortunately had confessional and communal bathroom clean up duty. Ed, in a shocking turn of events was facing elimination, he was saved by an invincibility redemption! I'm just wondering who chose to vote off Ed."
Footage of Ed being dragged by Chef and him crying were shown along with Eddy redeeming the voucher for Ed to prevent his elimination.
"Maybe we'll get to find out on this episode of Total…. Drama….Island! Multiverse Edition!"
*TDI: MV Intro Plays*
6:00 AM
The campers were sound asleep until an alarm blaring in the speakers was heard.
Falcon and Dan Kuso fell out of bed again, scared by the alarm.
"Huh? What? What the hell?" Rick said, waking up from the alarm. When it didn't look like anything was going on, he sighed.
"AHHHHHHHHHHH!" Rigby yelled.
Mordecai got up in surprise too from the alarm.
Everyone ran outside because of the commotion caused. Except for Riley due to his paralysis. He was put on a gurney after the challenge ended last night and was just now rolled to where the other contestants were by Zoey.
"Rick? What's going on? Why was there an alarm going off?" Morty asked.
"F[censored[ing Chris, that's what's going on." Rick said.
"GOOOOOOD MORNING CAMPERS!" Chris said, using his megaphone.
"Good? There is nothing good about you waking us up at 6 in the morning!" Squidward said.
"Hey, maybe Chris woke us early so we could do our challenge now!" Jake guessed.
"Good guess! But no!" Chris said. "Your challenge isn't quite ready yet!" Chris said.
"Then why are we even here?" Dipper asked.
"Yes! Explain yourself now!" Ryoma said.
Jerry nodded on top of Mabel's head, wholeheartedly agreeing.
Dipper saw Jerry. "I'm honestly too tired to even question that right now." Dipper said.
"Remember when I said during the arcade game challenge that I wanted to wake you guys up earlier than 7:30? Yeah, today's the day that I'm doing that." Chris said.
"I don't know about everybody else, but if there's no challenge, then I'm going back to sleep." Huey said.
"Same here." Brandy said.
"Utterly ridiculous." Vegeta commented as he went back.
"Sorry, that's not gonna happen." Chris said.
"Actually I think it is. First I think tired thoughts, then, I close my eyes." Dax said before doing a fake yawn. "See? It's workin' already."
"I've got two words for you Chris. First two letters, F U. F[censored] off." Rick said.
"I won't stop you from going to sleep. But if you do, you're out." Chris said.
"So what if we miss one stupid challenge, who cares? I need my rest and I am going to get it." Azula said.
"I don't mean the challenge. I mean the competition." Chris said.
"You've got to be joking. You're gonna kick someone out just for going to sleep?" Courtney asked.
"Anyone that's found to be sleeping before the challenge starts will be instantly eliminated! No campfire ceremony! No marshmallow! No second chances! Straight to the dock of shame and the boat of losers!" Chris said.
Everyone groaned and/or expressed different forms of protest except for Ippo and Goku it seemed.
"Is this just for you to make up for the elimination last night? Because I really feel like it is." Dipper asked.
"Actually, no. To be honest, I wasn't even expecting that to happen. This is more for me than anything else." Chris said.
"And what's that supposed to mean?" Clover asked.
"You'll find out later. But if you go to sleep, I guess you won't." Chris said.
***Confessional***
Dipper(Fighting Lions):
"Okay look, I'm gonna get this off my chest now, because I'm probably not gonna have another chance to do it. I have to admit that I was one of the people that voted for Ed." Dipper said, bags in his eyes, clearly feeling the effects of a lack of enough sleep. "I didn't have that many other options alright? And I had to pick someone!" He said, putting his hands in his face and sighing. "I guess this is the karma I get for doing that. Because not only do I feel terrible figuratively, I literally feel terrible. But if I want to stay here I've got to stay up. But what am I supposed to do until the challenge starts?"
***End Confessional***
***Confessional***
Heather(Soaring Phoenixes):
"The longer I'm here, the more I hate this place. And Chris. Is this what some of the others had to deal with for two seasons?"
***End Confession***
***Confessional***
Lance(Soaring Phoenixes):
"As much as I don't want to stay up, I don't have much of a choice. I guess I can train to pass the time."
***End Confessional***
***Confessional***
Ben10(Soaring Phoenixes):
"I thought this was a reality show, not school! I really wish that arcade was here about now. If we had it, I'd be able to stay up no problem!" He said, before yawning.
***End Confessional***
***Confessional***
Owen(Soaring Phoenixes):
Owen fell asleep in the confessional.
Knocking was then heard. "Hurry up in there! I wanna go next!" Rigby said.
This woke Owen up.
"Wha? Sorry!" Owen said.
***End Confessional***
***Confessional***
Rigby(Soaring Phoenixes):
"Riley's lucky! He probably won't even get to do any of the challenges because he's still paralyzed. What I need is some coffee! That'll keep me awake!"
***End Confessional***
"Hey Chris! Can we get some coffee?" Rigby asked.
"Nope. You cannot drink any coffee." Chris answered.
"What about a Pepsi?" Marty asked.
"Nope! No Pepsis either!" Chris said.
"In other words, we're not allowed to drink anything with caffeine." Velma said.
"Correct!" Chris said. "However, you will be allowed to do anything else. BUT leave the island! If you leave the island, you will also be eliminated!"
Vicky growled in frustration of having to be woken up early.
***Confessional***
Vicky(Soaring Phoenixes):
"It's one thing to have to put up with this food, and these cabins, but now I have to do this while being sleepy or I'm kicked off the island?" She said, folding her arms. "Don't get the wrong idea, I still want that money, so there's no way I'm dropping out that easy." Vicky said before thinking. "Although that does give me an idea." She said, an evil grin forming on her face.
***End Confession***
"Psst! Heather!" Vicky said, trying to get her attention. She whispered in Heather's ear once she got close enough. A similar devious grin was formed on Heather's face.
Ben16 yawned. "I gotta find something to do or I'm not gonna last too long." He said.
"Hey Ben, you asked about moves before. Why don't I show you some of mine? And get in some training while we're at it." Goku said.
"Great idea." He said, yawning again. "Hopefully that'll keep me awake."
While Ben16 and Goku went to the beach to train, Mandy was getting the attention of Mariah.
"Hey, Mariah." Mandy said.
She turned. "What is it?" Mariah asked.
"I need to talk to you about something. In private." Mandy said.
"Um, okay." Mariah said, not sure where this was headed.
"What about me?" Zoey asked.
"Do whatever you want. Just don't fall asleep." Mandy said.
Off at the elimination ceremony, Mandy talked to Mariah about their alliance.
"Zoey and I are in alliance. I don't vote for her in the eliminations and she doesn't vote for me. She thinks that you're good enough to join it. From what I saw in yesterday's challenge I'd agree. The question is, do you want to join?" Mandy asked.
"An alliance huh?" Mariah smiles. "Count me in!"
***Confession Room***
Mariah(Soaring Phoenixes):
"Joining was a no brainer! From what I've seen with Mandy, she's the kind of girl that's not afraid to get tough when the situation calls for it! And I absolutely love it! But at the same time, she's not gonna play dirty either!" Mariah said, before balling a fist. "If there's one thing I can't stand it's cheaters! They really burn me up!" She says before smiling once again. "But other than that I'm excited! And I wouldn't underestimate Zoey! Even if it doesn't look like it she's pretty tough too!" She said, winking. "Girl power for the win!"
***End Confession***
"I'm gonna go get some candy from my bag. It's the only way I'm gonna even be able to stay up. Y'all are welcome to join." Numbuh 5 said to Numbuh 4 and 3.
"Wait, you brought candy here?" Numbuh 4 asked.
"Yes! I told you that! But I guess you were too busy actin' like a baby over us comin' with you to listen huh?" Numbuh 5 said.
"Whatever! Where's the candy?" Numbuh 4 asked.
"Follow me." Numbuh 5 said.
One of the bags she had was a candy stash. She got the bag and opened it up.
"Mmm! So goooooood!" Numbuh 3 said, chewing an assortment of candy in her mouth.
"You been holdin' out on us! Do you realize I could have been eatin' this instead that crummy junk that Chef calls food?" Numbuh 4 asked.
"Yeah, I know, I know! And I'm sorry! I was hopin' the food would have gotten somewhat better, but it didn't! And with what's goin' on now I gotta go to the stash!" Numbuh 5 said. "In fact, I guess I'll be nice." She said.
Anyone on her team that she could find she offered candy too. While there were those like Mabel that readily accepted it, there were some like Velma and Frank that kindly declined.
Several of the contestants around camp tried to find different ways to stay up. Goku and Ben16 trained, along with Ippo, Raph and Lance, though the boxer and Galalunian soldier trained on another area of the beach instead of where Goku and Ben16 was.
Virgil, Yang, and Doyle all played video games together.
Frank went to try and find some interesting pictures to take.
Ruby was showing Rally her Crescent Rose.
Blake and Huey were reading outside but still had a hard time staying up.
"Hey, Huey." Blake said, trying to get his attention.
"Yeah?" Huey said, blinking his eyes trying to not close them.
"What's your book about?" Blake asked, trying to find any way to stay up.
"Huh?" Huey asked, confused.
"The book that you're reading? In your hand?" Blake said, clarifying.
Huey looks down at the book. "Oh." Huey said, rubbing his eyes. "Damn. Forgot I even had this." He said before regaining his focus. "It's called Invisible Man. It addresses much of the social issues that African-Americans faced during the 20th century. Mainly addressing individualism in a society that's made of conformity and grouping."
"Wanna switch?" Blake asked.
"Sure. But tell me what yours is about first." Huey said.
"This one's called Stripes. It's about a man that has fallen from being a beloved hero to a criminal after being framed. He believes he's alone in the world, no longer trusting them after they were quick to imprison him. He seems to do things out of pure boredom, losing his spirit."
"A redemption story huh?" Huey asked.
"That's the thing, this is the second story in the series, and he doesn't look to be progressing too much to that redemption. I'd say it'd be a slow burn at best." Blake said.
They switch books and start reading.
Meanwhile on the beach, Goku started showing Ben16 some of his moves. Ben himself was already transformed into Tenn-Zen.
"So this is one of my signature attacks. It was the one I was gonna show you before we got interrupted." Goku said. "You might wanna stand back though. Even if I am gonna shoot it upwards a little." Goku gets into a stance.
"Kaaaaaa-meeeeeee-haaaaaaa-meeeeeeee….HAAAAAAAA!" Goku unleashes his signature Kamehameha wave, facing away from the island and blasting it slightly upwards to try and avoid hitting anything that was in the distance like boats, other objects or disturbing the marine life. Even though it could still possibly disturb them along with the birds.
The wave got the attention of everyone on the island, including Vegeta, who was off training by himself.
"Woah." Ben16 said, amazed.
"Master Roshi says it would take 50 years to learn the move. Not sure how true that is though. As soon as I saw him do it I was able to do it too, even if it wasn't as powerful as his." Goku said before adding, "I will say though, learning a move is one thing. But mastering it, is a whole different story. Go ahead and try it out!"
"Okay. Here goes nothing." Ben said, before attempting to mimic Goku's stance. "Kaa-mee-haa-mee-haa!" While he was able to release the energy wave, his was weaker than Goku's. Also, the surprise of him being able to do such a feat almost caused him to lose his balance as the energy wave dispelled.
"So you are able to do it. Great! However, you're gonna need practice to get better at it. But I can see the potential." Goku said. "Let's try another move. This one's more of a defensive move, but it can still be pretty useful, especially when you're in a pinch." Goku says before putting his hands close to the center of his face, spreading his fingers towards his eyes.
"I don't know if this'll help, but you might want to close your eyes!" Goku said.
"Wha-" Ben started.
"Solar Flare!"
Ben closed his eyes a split second too late and was affected by the technique. He covered his eyes, trying to recover from the exposure to the flash of light.
"That's what I was trying to warn you about." Goku said.
"Yeah. I can see why. Thanks for the heads up." Ben said, eyes still closed.
"Even if it looks simple, believe it or not, it's helped me out a couple of times. And Krillin and Tien too." Goku said.
Eventually, Ben recovered and tried the move himself.
"I can't say if the move worked or not because my eyes are closed, but I guess one of the ways you can find out is by using it in a fight!" Goku said. "And speaking of fighting, wanna spar?"
Ben nodded, accepting his offer. "I don't see why not."
"Okay!" Goku said, stretching a little before getting into a fighting stance. "Whenever you're ready!"
"I'm ready now." Ben said.
Not long after this declaration from Ben did he and Goku fly at one another, beginning their sparring session.
Meanwhile, in front of one of the Lions' cabins, Joey was showing KO some of his Duel Monsters cards.
"These look so cool!" KO said, in awe at the Red Eyes Black Dragon card.
"I know. This guy is one of my strongest monsters. But that's just with raw attack power. Let me show you another one of my favorites." Joey said before showing his Time Wizard card. "Check it out! The Time Wizard!"
"Does this guy have some sort of special powers? He doesn't look that strong." KO said, using what Joey told him about attack and defense points.
"He may not have a lot of attack or defense points, but what he can do is a game changer!" Joey said. "The Time Wizard's special ability is that he can spin a roulette wheel! As long as I don't land on the skull, everyone's monsters are aged! Mine for the better, and the enemy, for the worse! But, if I land on the skull, all of monsters are destroyed and I take damage that's half of all their attack points!" Joey explained.
"That's pretty risky. If you don't get it right, you leave yourself wide open." KO said.
"I know, but if you've ever watched me duel, I'm known to take risks! And that's usually how I win a lot of my duels!" Joey said before a thought came to him. "Say, why don't I show you how to play?" Joey asked.
KO gasped. "Really?"
"Yeah! So what do ya say?" Joey asked.
"Okay! This'll be fun!" KO said.
"Awesome!" Joey said before shuffling his deck. After about 20 seconds of him shuffling it, he stops.
"Alright, this is gonna be my deck, and you're gonna use-" Joey said before looking over and realizing something.
"What's wrong?" KO asked.
"I just realized something! You don't have a deck! Aw!" Joey said, before smacking himself in the head.
"That's okay!" KO said before thinking of an idea. "Hey, why don't I show you my POW cards?"
"POW cards? What are those?" Joey asked.
"POW cards are collectible cards that each hero and villain gets! It's kind of like your duel monsters cards! There's a picture, their name, and their level! There's even other stats too!" KO said.
"I see." Joey said. "So I'm guessing you have your own card right?"
KO blushed in embarrassment. "Well yeah."
"Can I see it? I wanna see how strong you are!" Joey said.
KO, while reluctant at first, decided to show it to him.
"Level 4 huh?" Joey said, looking at the card.
KO was twiddling his thumbs before saying, "Yeah, that's not too strong," He then perked up "But I'm still learning and training to be even stronger!" KO said.
"This is pretty cool!" Joey said, tapping on the screen by accident. "Uh oh, did I break it?"
"No! You just went to the extra info!" KO said before pointing to some of the stats. "This shows some of the extra stats for each hero like stamina, and fear resistance!"
"It says you've got a fear resistance of 15! That's pretty high! You must be pretty brave!" Joey said.
KO rubbed the back of his head and laughs a little out of embarrassment from the compliment. "I guess so."
"Say, if its cards of heroes and villains…. I wonder if it has me on there! Or Yug!" Joey said.
"Hmm….." KO said, looking through his POW Cards. "I can't seem to find you. Sorry."
"What about my pal Yugi Muto? He's got spikey hair. He has something called the millennium puzzle around his neck." Joey said.
"Let's see…." KO said, looking through his POW Cards again. "I can't seem to find him either."
"If that's the case, then rich boy's probably not on there either." Joey said.
"Let's find out! What's his name?"
"His name's Kaiba. Brown hair. Huge ego only matched by his big head! Long white coat. If he was here right now, he'd call some of what's happening right now some kind of 'Hocus pocus act'. He said, trying to imitate Kaiba. I bet he's got a villain card."
KO searches through his cards again. "Nope. I can't seem to find him. And by the way, villain cards have negative levels compared to heroes. That doesn't mean they're weak, but that just shows how strong they are for a villain."
Joey grins. "Well, if I did have a POW card, I bet the level would be pretty high." He said confidently.
A thought came to KO. "Hey, if people from different worlds are watching, maybe you will get a POW card! And probably everyone else here too! Check out these cards!" KO said, showing Joey the Captain Planet, Sonic and Garnet POW Cards he collected.
"They aren't from my world, but they were able to get POW Cards too!" KO said.
Joey noticed something. "Hey, where's their level?"
"That's the awesome part! They're so strong, their power can only be shown by something that represents them!"
"That's awesome!" Joey said.
As Joey and KO continued to talk, Zoey was talking to Morty, trying to keep herself up while Mandy and Mariah were gone.
"So do you think the petition's gonna actually work?" Morty asked.
"Well, Chris did say he'd see what he could do when we showed him the form." Zoey answered.
"Wow, that sounds encouraging." Morty said, smiling.
"Yeah. I'm just wondering if he told Chef about the changes yet and will make them today." Zoey said.
"Ha ha. No seriously, that's pretty funny. There's no way you really think he just went along with that petition just because you got everyone's names." Rick said, showing up behind him, putting up a satellite dish.
"Why are you so pessimistic?" Zoey asked.
"Yeah Rick. Didn't you sign it too?" Morty asked.
"Yeah, I did. So what?" Rick said, adjusting the dish.
"Shouldn't you have a little faith in the petition that you signed to show support of?" Zoey asked.
"Yes, I should. Emphasis on should. But I don't. Why? Because it's f[censored]ing Chris we're talking about here. And besides, some of the people here have been dealing with this for two whole seasons and it's pretty obvious that most of them have said they don't like the food even before this one. If all it took was a petition just to change his mind, then seriously, what the hell? If that's the case, we should make petitions for challenges that we don't want to participate in. Maybe then he'll take us seriously and give us another challenge. Or better yet, how about a petition for us to go to sleep without being kicked off the island?" Rick said, pressing a button on a remote, causing a light on the bottom of the dish to flash.
"Who knows? It doesn't hurt to try and think positive right?" Morty asked, shrugging before really paying attention to the satellite.
"Yeah, whatever." Rick said before going back inside the cabin.
"What's he doing?" Zoey asked, noticing the satellite.
"I don't know. Wanna find out?" Morty asked.
Zoey shrugged. She didn't have much else to do. She needed something to keep her up, this was at least somewhat interesting.
Zoey was preparing to get Riley up the stairs.
"Hey, do you want some help with that?" Morty asked.
"Sure! Thank you!" Zoey said.
"You're welcome. I-it's no problem at all." Morty said, bringing up Riley on the gurney.
"What are you doing Rick?" Morty asked as they entered the cabin.
"What does it look like I'm doing? I'm trying to keep busy and keep myself awake. This is how I've decided I'm gonna do it." Rick said, going through a menu on the TV.
"Are you upgrading the TVs?" Zoey asked.
"Nope." Rick said, still going through the menus.
"Then what's the satellite for?" Zoey asked.
"Interdimensional cable. For every single TV here. Even for the other team. Why? Because I felt like it, because it's one way to make this place less s[censored] for as long as we're gonna be here, and because I just want to stick it to Chris for being so goddamn cheap and giving us these old TVs." Rick said, finishing up on the menus and going back outside.
"Oh. That's really nice of you Rick." Morty said.
"Nice? Don't you remember the last time I said I was gonna upgrade our TV and I said never mind? The only reason I'm even doing this now is because there's nothing else to do. And I can't leave or I'll get eliminated. And believe me Morty, there's no way I'm getting kicked off this island for something as stupid as falling asleep." Rick said before leaving back outside.
***Confessional***
Rick(Soaring Phoenixes):
"Believe it or not, I'm kinda leaning on the side of this not being an elimination scenario. Why? Because, think about it! Getting kicked off an island just because you were sleepy? When the host himself didn't even give you a reasonable amount of time to sleep? What kind of stupid reason is that? If that's literally the case and a good bit of the cast is gone because of it, people are going to be p[censored]ed off and he'll lose ratings! And rightfully so! Because like I said, it's bull[censored]!"
***End Confessional***
"I know Rick doesn't want to admit it, but he really did something nice." Morty said to Zoey.
"Yeah. But still, why didn't he upgrade the TV too? I mean yeah, some TV is better than no TV, but still. That's an odd decision." Zoey said.
"The last time he said we'd get new TVs anyway with the arcade room. If I had to guess, it's probably the same reason." Morty said.
"Still though, that was really nice of him to do." Zoey said.
Morty laughs a little. "Yep." He said, rubbing his arm, looking away after laughing.
"I have to ask though." Zoey started.
"Go ahead!" Morty said, looking back at Zoey.
"What's interdimensional cable?" Zoey asked.
"Well, you're about to find out because I need to test this to make sure this works before I put this in every cabin." Rick said, returning before Morty could answer.
Rick pressed the input button on the remote to change the TV input. A blue screen that said, "LOADING" in yellow text was shown along with a yellow progress bar.
"This is TV from every conceivable reality." Rick said.
"Cool!" Zoey said.
"What you're about to experience can include, but is not limited to, some really f[censored]ed up s[censored] that might legitimately p[censored] someone off if they were the fan of the original source material, some of the most boring s[censored] you'll ever see, or possibly even you or someone you know in a position five to ten years in the future that you'd never think in a million years, that you or them would be in. Take that last part however you want it." Rick said.
"The Gross Sisters running the United States?" Zoey shivered. "Don't ever take me to that timeline."
"Well, I can tell how you're interpreting it, and honestly, that's a reaction that I really didn't expect, so good on you." Rick said as the TV finished.
"You shall not get to Shao Kahn! You may have defeated me once, but you will not defeat me again! And once I defeat you, your soul…. Will be mine!" A man said, pointing to someone that was off camera in the movie shown on TV.
"Not today sorcerer!" Another man with red and black pants said, with a red headband, shirtless.
The sorcerer shapeshifted into a ninja in a blue ninja's outfit.
"Face me Liu Kang! If you can!" He said, before sliding across the ground with ice trailing him. But Liu Kang dodged it by jumping out of the way.
"Wow, a sequel to the original, but, you know, actually looks competent!" Rick said.
"W-wait what? There was a second movie?" Morty asked.
"Yeah. It sounds like you didn't know about it. And trust me Morty, you do not want to watch it. You're probably better off just watching this." Rick said as the fight continued in the background.
"Tell me Liu Kang. You may have conquered all of the other warriors to get here. But can you conquer…." He morphs into Liu Kang. "Yourself?"
"Who knew that all it took for this to seem a thousand times better was for them to remove all of the random flipping, getting rid of that God awful script and bringing back Cary-Hiroyuki Tagawa." Rick said, before changing the channel.
"Aw man! I kinda wanted to see what happened." Morty said.
"Well, you can watch it on your own time. I'm sure you can find it. You know how to work this." Rick said.
A boy with salt and pepper hair, whose hair was black in the middle and white on the sides was seen with his family causing havoc everywhere they went. Also seen was a man that looked strikingly similar to one of the contestants competing. However, unlike him, he wasn't wise cracking or as fun-loving. He was silent.
"Isn't that Doyle?" Zoey asked.
"Yep. Looks like some alternate dimension where Doyle's evil. And doesn't seem to be too much of a talker either." Rick said.
"Wow." Zoey said, adjusting her glasses, while in awe.
"Yeah. Some of these alternate dimensions are pretty insane." Morty said.
"He's right. You're watching them. We've actually been in different dimensions and worlds before. And there are several of them that are actually f[censored]ed up, and not your typical opposite good/evil counterpart alternate universe." Rick said before changing the channel again.
"Welcome back to Total Drama Island: Multiverse Edition!" A woman said.
"Isn't that us?" Zoey asked as the woman with blonde hair, red dress and matching red earrings continued to talk as she was preparing campers that were all of them exactly. Even down to who was eliminated.
"Nope. You're watching a version of this happening in another universe. Jus- just think about that for a second. Right now, at this very moment, while you're competing on this show, somewhere out there in the multiverse, this exact same show is happening, with you, maybe without you, with some of the same or different contestants." Rick said.
"Honestly, that's hard to wrap my head around. But still pretty easy to understand. Considering the other things that happen around here, it makes sense. I mean, just think about the last challenge. I just talked to a talking copepod!" Zoey said.
"Honestly, if it hurts your brain, it'll hurt less if you just don't think about it as much." Morty said to Zoey.
Rick changes the channel again.
"WHAT A F[CENSORED]IN' JOKE! TOO BAD EVERYONE IN THIS WORLD IS GONNA DIE!" Rick said on TV, as a dragon for some reason.
"Wait, what the hell is this?" Rick said.
"GEE, I'M SO GLAD YOU ASKED! WHILE YOU WERE ALL BUSY RUNNING LIKE A BUNCH OF LITTLE RATS, I HACKED THE ENTIRE GAME WORLD, AND IT'S SET TO BLOW UP IN TEN MINUTES! AND ONCE THAT HAPPENS, IT WILL KILL EVERYONE IN THE REAL WORLD! AND THAT HOST CAN'T DO ANYTHING TO STOP THIS!"
"Um, Rick?" Morty asked, legitimately concerned as Chris, Chef, Ginyu and Burter were seen.
"Keep working on fixing it!" Chris cried. "We can't have them die! At least not like this!"
"This… is insane." Zoey said.
"Like I said, infinite dimensions, infinite possibilities. Even if it is insane, it still exists in the multiverse regardless." Rick said, changing the channel.
***Confessional***
Morty(Soaring Phoenixes):
"I know that's supposed to be an alternate universe and all, but that still makes me concerned, really concerned. He just threatened to kill everybody in the show!" He said, hands on his head.
***End Confessional***
"Aren't you a little concerned about seeing that Rick? Considering that he was on Total Drama too?" Morty asked.
"Yeah, I've gotta admit, I am a bit concerned." Zoey said.
"Concerned? Why? It's an alternate universe Morty. You're gonna see stuff like that. Do you see me threatening to kill everyone on this island right now? No, you don't. You see me here, with bags in my f[censored]ing eyes, trying to stay up and configure this interdimensional cable so that I don't get the early boot on this show. God Morty, you act like you haven't seen s[censored] like this before! Her, I can understand. But you? Seriously! Have some faith in your grandpa!" Rick said.
"Slap slap slapclap slap slapclap?" A boy with brown hair asked another boy with short, spiky black hair wearing a shirt that said "Clap Lord". That meant "did you forget your homework"
"Clap clap clap!" The other boy answered confidently, meaning "of course not" before yelling, "Slapclap! Clap clap clapslap clap slapclap!" That meant, "Okay! I did forget my homework!"
"Huh. Looks like some kind of weird world where everyone just says slap or clap when they talk." Rick said before turning off the TV.
"Alright, I think that about does it. It works." Rick said. "Now to go put this in the other cabins."
"I think this Is great, but it's probably a good idea to ask before you bring that to the other teams' cabins." Zoey said.
"Yeah, that's what I was gonna do. I'm not about to get yelled at, when I haven't f[censored]ed anyone over for that to happen." Rick said, walking out.
"So, anything you want to watch?" Morty asked, sitting on the bed.
"Maybe later. I'm really trying stay up. I need some air again." Zoey said.
"Okay. I'll see you when the challenge starts." Morty said.
"See you later Morty!" Zoey said, waving, while rolling Riley out.
Morty waved back, smiling before changing the channel back to the Mortal Kombat movie.
***Confessional***
Zoey(Soaring Phoenixes):
"I'm really looking forward to the interdimensional cable." Zoey said, grinning. "Maybe there will be channels that'll have different endings to shows! Or channels with shows that actually got some closure! The possibilities really are endless!"

"Squidward!"
"Squidward!"
"Squidward!"
Spongebob kept prodding Squidward in the arm.
"Just pretend like you're so tired you can't hear him. Maybe he'll go away." Squidward thought.
"Squidward!"
"Squidward!"
"Squidward!"
"Squidward!"
"Squidward!"
Because of how sleepy was, he had a lot less patience.
"What? What? What could you possibly be bothering me for?" Squidward said.
"Hey Squidward! I can tell you're sleepy. Wanna play? I know we're on opposite teams, but that doesn't mean we can't help each other as friends right?" Spongebob asked Squidward as he was sitting on the steps of his cabin, clearly bored. Not even motivated enough to play his clarinet.
"Go away! Not even in this scenario would I want to play with you!" Squidward said.
"Hmm…." Spongebob said, thinking. "Hey, maybe you could play your clarinet?"
"As much as I want to do so, alas, I have no motivation to do it at the moment." Squidward said.
"Well, what's one thing you do feel like doing?" Spongebob asked.
"Seeing you walk away from this cabin." Squidward said before Spongebob sees Rick going into a cabin.
"I wonder what Rick's up to." Spongebob said.
"I don't know. Why don't you go over there and ask him yourself?"
"Great idea! Later Squidinator!"
"Hopefully that won't happen until we're back in Bikini Bottom." Squidward said.
***Confessional***
Squidward(Fighting Lions):
"There's over 70 other people here and he chooses to bother me out of all people. How long am I going to have to put up with this?"

"Uh, sure?" Lance answered Rick to a question about the TV. Lance himself honestly only came in to get something and leave back out.
"Hey Rick! Whatcha doin'?" Spongebob asked.
"Interdimensional cable. That's all you need to know." Rick said.
"Ooh, that sounds interesting." Spongebob said.
"That's because it is. Just think about the possibilities. You, but as actual people." Rick said as Lance walked out with a guitar.
"Lance, but he's in some sort of alternate reality where he's an anime star! A dimension, where everyone is paralyzed but still lives their daily lives." Rick said.
"Coool!" Spongebob said.
Rick changes to a random channel.
"Scoutmaster Wolfe, can we go and get some ice cream from the ice cream truck?" An orange monkey asked.
"Be my guest kids!" The steer scoutmaster said, nothing but smiles.
"That camp looks nice." Spongebob commented.
"Yeah that's good. But think of a summer camp, but the camp is s[censored] and the kids aren't exactly saints either! And no, I'm not talking about here." Rick changes the channel.
"Has anyone seen my phone? I must have dropped it while doing my smiling exercises!" A camp counselor said. His face however, wasn't shown.
"Don't admit to that." Another camp counselor said, also walking past three kids in costumes. Her face was also not shown.
One of the kids, a boy with a sunshade complexion wearing a wizard costume was laughing.
"Is that David's phone?" The girl with turquoise hair tied into two pigtails wearing a Juliet costume asked, referring to the male camp counselor. The two white band-aids on her left cheek and scratches on her right cheek weren't part of the costume however. These were trademarks of her love of adventure.
"Pipe down. I'm checking his- oh my god he has a Tinder account." The boy said.
"What's a Tinder?" The girl asked.
"It's that dating app for losers who can't meet people in real life." The boy said, looking at David's profile.
"Or, if you're really feeling bold, how about something like this?" Rick said, changing the channel once more.
"Surfer cats! From Saturn!" An announcer said as three cats surf on a wave at a beach.
"They're cats! From Saturn! That surf! And no, they're not the anthropomorphic kind! They're just cats! Who love to surf!" The narrator said as the cats meowed on surfboards.
"Ooh! Look at the cute little cats!" Several people said as they got to shore.
The cats pointed laser guns at them. "But don't call them cute or they'll shoot you're a[censored] in the face!"
The TV cuts to the cats being in a house drinking milk. "But… when the time comes, they will save the day!" The cats look out the window and see a man in a suit, who was actually disguised as an alien designated to harvest all of the resources from Earth for his home world, laughing as an army of dogs in jets began to attack the neighborhood.
The cats suited up and grabbed rockets to shoot down the jets on hoverboards. This caused the man to scream in agony before promising that he'd get those cats someday.
"Surfar cats! From Saturn!"
"Me[censored] Mow!" A cat said, meaning f[censored] yeah in their language.
"That surf! But somehow know profanity too!"
"So how many channels are there?" Spongebob asked.
"There is no number. It's limitless. Infinite channels, from infinite timelines, dimensions and universes!"
"Can I try?" Spongebob asked.
"Yeah, sure. It works anyway, so I've got no reason to be here. Knock yourself out." Rick said, handing him the remote.
"And now for Destroy Build Destroy, where this show is about destroying stuff, building it back up and then destroying it again for a chance at 1 million dollars!"
Rick went around to each cabin and they all eagerly accepted the offer of better TV, even if some of them didn't exactly fully understand what Rick meant until they found out about it themselves.
Mandy found Billy, who was on the verge of falling asleep.
"Billy! There's a bug on you." Mandy said.
"AHHHHHHH! Get it off! Get it off! Get it off!" Billy said, jumping fully awake and into Mandy's hands.
Mandy let him go, causing him to fall on the ground.
"Is it gone Mandy? Did you kill it?" Billy asked.
Mandy sighed and just went along with it. "Yes, I killed the bug."
"Oh thank you! Thank you! Thank you!" Billy said before hugging her, something that she wasn't fond of. She pushed him off.
"Look, you're going to need to find something to do if you're going to stay up." Mandy said.
"But what Mandy? I'm boooooored!" Billy said.
"Just go watch TV or something, I don't care. Just make sure you stay awake. Staying outside clearly isn't working for you." Mandy said.
"Okay!" Billy said, going back to his cabin.
***Confessional***
Billy(Soaring Phoenixes):
"Grim's so lucky! He gets to stay sleep because he doesn't have to do the challenges!"
***End Confessional***
***Confessional***
Mandy(Soaring Phoenixes):
"I don't have to help Billy. I'm doing it because I don't have too many people I can one hundred percent trust besides Zoey and Mariah right now. And if it isn't trust, I just don't like them."
***End Confessional***
Heather found Ryoma just sitting in the forest by himself, eyes closed. She assumed she was sleep and went to Chris.
Chris was watching TV with Chef.
"Dude, this interdimensional cable is absolutely the best. So many things to watch, and best of all, I don't have to foot the bill. Honestly, I'm really thinking about giving Rick immunity just because of it." Chris said.
"Hey Chris." Heather said.
"If you're wondering about the challenge, no, it's not ready yet." Chris said.
"I'm not here for that. I'm just here to tell you that one of the contestants are sleeping." Heather said.
Chris didn't respond.
"Aren't you going to do something about it? You said you were going to eliminate anyone you found sleeping."
Chris sighs. "Fine. Chef, check the cameras."
Chef sighs before checking the cameras to confirm. There were actually several that were on the verge of sleeping. Dan Kuso, Marty, Gary, Harold, Owen, Brandy, Reimu, Homer, Clover and Ash specifically.
***Confessional***
Chris:
"I'm pretty sure she's doing this to try and get rid of people, but hey, I'm not gonna stop her. It'll probably create some drama in the team later on."
***End Confessional***
Vicky was hiding behind a tree, watching Dan Kuso doze off on a log. She left and was about to tell Chris. Drago, who was beside Dan, was taking in the beautiful sunrise.
"Ahhh. Vestroia or Earth, the one thing that will always be the same is how blissful pure silence can be sometimes." Drago said aloud. He heard leaves ruffling. But it wasn't the environment. He could tell it was footsteps. But they were too far for him to make out who it was.
"Dan." Drago said, prodding him.
"Dan."
"DAN!" He said, yelling.
"It looks like I have no choice then." Drago said before going back into ball form after getting airborne and falling on Dan's nose.
"Ahhh!" Dan said in pain before covering his nose.
"What's the big idea Drago? You trying to kill me?" He said, still covering his nose.
"I am trying to make sure you stay in this competition." Drago said.
"Because giving a bloody nose is exactly how you keep someone in." He said sarcastically.
"You gave me no choice. I tried to wake you by normal means but that wasn't working. You were being watched." Drago said.
"Watched?" Dan asked, blinking in confusion.
"Yes. Someone was over there, watching you." Drago said, turning towards the area he was referring to.
"Could you make out who it was?" Dan asked.
"No. But I have a feeling that whoever it is, could lead to your elimination if you can't stay awake." Drago said.
"I see. Good looking out Drago." He said. "But the thing is, it's so hard to not go to sleep. What's there to even do?" Dan asked.
"You could try getting with some of your teammates. Perhaps they have found ways to keep themselves busy." Drago suggested.
"Good idea." Dan said. "Though I'm willing to bet that some of them are as bored as I am right now." Dan said, walking back to where the cabins were.
Ash was woken up by a thunderbolt from Pikachu, while Psyduck kept Misty awake, who came out of his pokeball at probably the most opportune time.
Meanwhile, Heather and Vicky took turns in pointing out contestants that were sleep. And Chef got to them to wake them up with an air horn and megaphone.
"Ah!" Owen said, who was up against a tree as Chef blew his air horn.
"Owen! You're out! Pack your bags boy!" Chef said, causing Owen to look down in defeat.
Harold was sleeping on a tree stump in the elimination ceremony.
"You're outta here!" Chef said.
Marty was sleep in the confessional.
After blowing the airhorn, Chef thumbed behind him, letting him know he was out.
Reimu was asleep in a tree.
Until her sleep was interrupted by Chef via the airhorn and megaphone.
"Shoulda hid in the actual leaves! You're out!" Chef said.
Reimu rubbed her eyes and yawned before eventually coming down the tree.
***Confessional***
Reimu(Fighting Lions):
"I know I want the money, but at this point, I don't care. I just want to go to sleep."
***End Confessional***
Eddy was sleep in one of the bathroom stalls.
After being caught, he screamed in agony.
"I think I need a walk, I'll see you later." Rally said to Ruby.
"Bye!" Ruby said, giving a friendly wave and smile.
As she was walking through the forest, she saw someone running. But before she could question who it was she heard music. She went towards the music and saw that it was Lance playing by himself.
While she was more of a fan of classic jazz, she had to admit that he played really good. So when he eventually stopped,, it was a shock to her.
"Why'd you stop?" Rally asked, standing up against a tree branch.
"Just taking a break. I didn't see you there. I'll go if it's bothering you." Lance said, about to stand up.
"It's actually not. And I've gotta say, it's really good. You ever considered being in a band?" Rally asked, which caused him to frown.
"Sorry. You don't have to talk about it if-"
"No it's fine. I was in one." Lance said.
"Was? If you don't mind me asking, what happened?" She said, folding her arms.
"They said they didn't want to go mainstream. Said I didn't get it."
"Get what? I thought getting recognition is a good thing last time I checked. I'm not saying it's got to be the end all be all, but... where would anyone be without referral? Some sort of recognition? I wouldn't be where I am with my gun shop without referrals."
"Guess that just how it is for some people. Myself included." Lance said before he gets up.
"If you agreed with them they wouldn't have kicked you out I don't think." Rally said before Lance put his guitar back in the case and got up.
"Aren't you gonna play again?" Rally asked.
"I changed my mind." He said before leaving. Rally looked on, mouth agape for a couple of seconds before returning to a neutral expression, not exactly sure how to feel, wondering if it was something that she said that caused him to leave.
Sam saw Richie tinkering with several gadgets, just laid out on the ground. Back-Pack tried to alert him but he wasn't listening.
"Not now. I think I'm really close to getting this done." Richie said.
"Hey Richie." Sam said, greeting him. "Nice tech you got here."
"Huh?" Richie said, not recognizing the voice before looking up and seeing Sam.
"Oh, sorry. Didn't see you there. Just uh, working on some school projects." Richie said.
Sam only raised an eyebrow and gave him a look, not buying it at all.
"What? It could be one you know." Richie said.
"Right. Backpacks that sound alarms. Where can I get one of those?" Sam asked.
"Hey, you're not exactly that good at keeping secrets yourself you know." Richie said.
"Really now? And what makes you say that?" Sam said, hands on her hips, waiting for an answer.
"Does the name WOOHP sound familiar to you?" Richie asked.
"Alex." Sam said in annoyance.
"So, what exactly are you trying to work on?" Sam asked, now that the two's double lives were revealed.
They were both keeping busy with Richie explaining to Sam how he wanted to improve his zap caps.
"I'm trying to improve the heat resistance of the cap caps. Went up against this guy named Hotstreak. They're supposed to be fireproof, but that didn't-" Richie said before realizing that she wasn't listening and looked up to see why.
"Wonder what's up with them?" Richie asked, referring to some of the campers that were returning to their cabins.
"I don't know. My guess is that they were found sleeper and are about to get the boot." Sam said.
Alex found Sam.
"Hey Sam, have you seen Clover?" Alex asked.
"No, I haven't. She wasn't with you?" Sam asked.
"She said she had to go to the restroom, but she didn't come back." Alex said.
A thought came to Sam. "Oh no."
"What is it?"
Chef didn't go inside but he did blow the air horn, hearing the snoring from Clover.
"Ahhhhhh!" Clover yelled.
"Back to ya cabin! You're out!" Chef said.
"Oh no! We were too late!" Alex said.
Though Chef didn't say anything to Sam or Alex.
"Well that was weird." Alex said.
"I know. Why didn't he say anything to us?" Sam said. "Although if he's actually going around, we should probably warn the others."
Sam and Alex decided to split up to get to more campers.
"Are you sure this is safe?" Lindsay asked, hanging from above a tree upside down along with Ty Lee and Izzy.
"Of course! I do this all the time!" Izzy said.
"Yeah! Just don't lose your balance and concentration and you'll be fine!" Ty Lee said.
"Hey!" Alex called out.
"Whaaaaaaa!" Lindsay fell after suddenly hearing Alex's voice. But Alex was able to use her athleticism to quickly dive and try to catch her.
"Thanks!"
"Yep, no problem." Alex said as Lindsay fell on top of her.
"Hey Alex! What's up?" Ty Lee said, swinging back and forth while still upside down.
"I could point out how unsafe that is, but it looks like you two have got it under control." Alex said. "Anyways, Chef's going around waking people up." Alex started.
"Really? That's nice of him." Lindsay said.
"No, that's not nice. When Chef wakes them up, they're out." Alex said.
"How many are out so far?" Ty Lee asked.
"I don't know. But he's gotten at least a few. From both teams. Clover, Owen, Marty, Brandy and some others are already out." Alex said.
"Thanks for the heads up!" Izzy said.
"No problem!" Alex said.
Sam warned Richie about Chef along with Velma and the rest of Mystery Inc along with Ruby, Rally, and Weiss.
"Thanks for the warning. I'll configure backpack to let me know if Chef is near." Richie said.
"Heard the whole thing. Gonna keep an out too, Rich." Virgil said on the Shock Vox.
Chef went to Ryoma and blew his airhorn which caused Ryoma to instantly point his sword at him.
"What is the meaning of this?" Ryoma said, not happy.
"Checked on the cameras and saw you were sleepin'!" Chef said.
"I was not sleeping! I was meditating!" Ryoma said, annoyed.
"Now I won't be able to achieve that same amount of focus again!" Ryoma said before leaving.
"Oh come on! That's just not fair!" Bloo said.
"Yeah, you've gotta be cheating!" Rigby said.
"Heh, I guess I am a cheat code." Hawkeye said boastfully after beating Bloo, Rigby and Ben in the video game they were playing.
"We call next!" Beast Boy said.
"Mordecai, please beat this guy." Rigby said.
"I can't make any *yawn* promises." Mordecai said.
"Don't worry, I got this." Cyborg said.

One hour later and the challenge still hasn't started yet.
"Come on Luz! You gotta hang in there!" Anne said.
"But I'm so sleepy." Luz said.
"I'm sleepy too, but if you want to stay in the game, you've gotta keep yourself awake." Anne said, going through the channels to find something good to watch before seeing that Luz went to sleep.
Anne thought about getting some water but decided against it. "Desperate times call for *yawn* desperate measures."
Anne takes a deep breath before getting close to Luz's face.
"Wake up!" Anne says before slapping Luz.
"Ow! What the heck was that for?" Luz said.
"Uh, you were sleeping, and I needed some way to wake you up." Anne said.
"Huh, now I know how Hunter felt." Luz said.
"What?" Anne asked, confused.
"Nothing. Thanks." Luz said.
"No problem."
"Hey V, you still up?" Richie said, rubbing his eyes.
"Yeah. Tryin' my best to hang in there." Virgil said. "Where's Sharon when you need her?" He said, referring to his sister.
Richie laughed a little. "How 'bout you Rich?" Virgil asked.
"I'm tryin'. My brain feels like mush. I gotta take a break. I just can't think straight. Feel like a computer about to overload. Which is funny considering brains are computers. " Richie said before taking off his glasses and rubbing his eyes.
"You better not leave me here man. Who else am I gonna be able to give my plate of Chef's food too?" Virgil asked.
"Probably no one. Me included. Dude, not even Chris eats that." Richie said.
"Forget Chris. I bet Chef himself doesn't even eat that food.
Goku and Ben16 were still going at it. Albeit in between recharges of the watch.
Ben16 formed an energy ball before kicking it towards Goku. But what he did next was something that Goku didn't anticipate. He quickly followed the energy before grabbing it and throwing a punch, infusing the punch with the energy to make it more powerful, knocking Goku back. Goku came back with force however and was relentless with his attacks, putting Ben on the defensive. At the end, he threw a right roundhouse kick to his hips. But Ben lowered his elbows to allow his arm to take the blow.
Ben decided to keep things close ranged. Although Ben was able to hold his own for a bit, Goku's experience ultimately played a factor in the close-ranged battle. Goku launched him up in the air and chased after him. What he didn't hear was that Ben recovered and was charging a Kamehameha. But instead of waiting for Goku to come and fire it then, he decided to teleport under Goku and then send the blast.
When he didn't see Goku anywhere, he was in shock. "Guess I overdid it?" Ben guessed.
"Nope. But that was still pretty good nonetheless." Goku said, who was on the side of him now.
"How did you dodge it?"
"I didn't hear it at first, but as soon as I saw the stance, I knew you were charging up for a Kamehameha. The dodge after your teleport though, was all reaction. I really didn't see that coming."
Goku landed back to the ground and Ben followed.
"You know, I actually have a move like that. Where I combine instant transmission with the Kamehameha. You were able to do something similar and I didn't even show it to you. I'm impressed." Goku said.
"I like to get creative with my aliens. Helps me be a lot more versatile in a fight." Ben said.
"That's a great habit to have. If you can do that, I'm sure you'll be able to come up with different moves of your own. With enough practice of course." Goku said.
"Yeah, that's what I'm hoping for." Ben said, smiling.
"Well, I'm beat. I really want to get something to eat, but where?" Goku said.
"That's a good question." Ben said, before turning back to normal.
***Confessional***
Ben16(Fighting Lions):
"Chef and Chris have got to have food somewhere. I'm almost certain he doesn't eat what we're eating. But where does he have it? If I knew, I'd sneak in and get some for everyone. Not as myself of course. This would make the job a lot easier." He said, showing the Omnitrix.
"I just hope that petition works so it doesn't have to come to that though."
***End Confessional***
Two Hours later, and still no sign or indication of a challenge.
"I'm soo tired." Marinette said, in frustration, pulling her face.
"You've got to stay up Marinette! You heard what Sam and Alex said." Tikki said.
"The only thing that's really keeping me up is Dan and his training." Marinette said, referring to Dan Hibiki who was rolling around and doing other types of moves, training to types of moves, training to try and keep himself up.
"Yeah, he's making a lot of noise. And honestly, it's a good thing." June said.
"Oh, I forgot you were even there." Marinette said, as she continued watching Dan train.
"You will not keep me down Chris! Do you hear me!" He called out, shaking his fist.

Marinette(Soaring Phoenixes):
"It's like he's a machine. How the heck is he able to just continue doing that?"

"The rest of them may be tired, but I'm not giving up that easily!" Dan said, bags in his eyes, still showing the effects of a lack of sleep but is trying his best to fight it off before his stomach growls. "Even if I could use some breakfast." He said sadly.
***End Confessional***
Chef blows an airhorn at Bloo, who tried to paint over his eyes, the same way Justin did.
"That trick's already been done! Gonna have to be smarter than that!" Chef said, which scared Mordecai and the others that were in the cabin who were just barely hanging in.
"Dude, I can't take it anymore. I just wanna go to sleep man." Beast Boy said.
"I know." Mordecai said.
"Seriously. Chris has got to stop this." Hawkeye said, mask over his face, exhausted.
"What's the *yawn* matter guys? I can keep….. going." Ben10 said, pressing buttons on the controller before unknowingly dozing off and waking up immediately when he heard the game over screen.
"Aw man!" Ben10 said. "Time for a change of pace. Let's see what's on TV." Ben changes to the TV input.
"Yeah, sure man." Mordecai said.
Mabel was fast asleep. And so were the sector V kids.
"Yeah! I'll show you you stupid adults." Numbuh 4 said in his sleep.
"Oh stop it! You didn't have to say that." Mabel said in her sleep.
They were all air horned awake by Chef.
"What's the big idea?" Numbuh 5 said.
"Yeah! I was getting to the good part where I tossed one of those adults into the slammer!" Numbuh 4 said.
"And I was getting to the part where I had to choose one of the boys that showered me with compliments!" Mabel said. "It was gonna be a really tough choice."
"Well this one's gonna be an easy one! 'Cause this one's non-negotiable! Get your things, and get on that boat!" Chef said, pointing to the door.
"I knew eating all of that candy was a bad idea." Dipper said, seeing them all walk out.
"Yeah." Mac said before yawning.
"At this point, I just want this to be over with so we can all go back to sleep. I don't even care if we lose the challenge." Adam said.
"Aw dude, did you really have to do that here?" Dipper asked Jake who was scratching his butt.
"Yep, sometimes a monkey's gotta do what a monkey's gotta do." Jake said.
Dipper sighs.
***Confessional***
Dipper(Fighting Lions):
"Okay Chris. Seriously, this went from annoying to absolute torture. Please, pleeeease end this!"
***End Confessional***
Sam and Richie were next to be air horned along with Virgil. Beyal was also out, with Dax and Jinja barely staying awake.
Chris and Chef laughed as the picture of Sam laying next to Richie was shown.
"You think they've had enough?" Chef asked.
"Okay, yeah. Chris said, still grinning.
"Attention campers! Everyone report to the beach under the 1000-ft cliff! Your next challenge is about to start!" Chris said on the speakers.
The campers that were left all went to where Chris said, albeit in a sluggish fashion.
In the wake of all of this, only the following campers were somehow still awake and in, even if it was barely for some of them:
For the Lions it was KO, Fred, Shaggy, Scooby, Ben16, Huey, Goku, Joey, Izzy, Misty, Ash, Ryoma, Ed, Eddy, Edd, Dipper, Doyle, Raph, Leshawna, Azula, Ty Lee, Rally, Ippo, Ruby, Weiss, Blake, Yang, Alex, Luz, Lindsay, Frank, and Anne.
For the Phoenixes it was Adam and Jake, Hawkeye, Jack, Ben10, Rigby, Morty, Spongebob, Lance, Falcon, Courtney, Mordecai, Mandy, Billy, Marinette, Jinja, Dax, Vicky, June, Beast Boy, Cyborg, Heather, Peter, Riley(though he wouldn't be able to participate due to his paralysis), Rick, Dan Hibiki, Dan Kuso, Sokka, Mac, Zoey, Mariah and Vegeta.
"Campers! You're challenge for today is-" Chris started to explain before someone fell asleep.
It was Ben10.
"Ben! You're out dude!" Chris said before Chef blows an air horn. Ben10 grabs his bags, using XLR8 to help speed things up before he falls back asleep.
"As I was saying, your challenge for today involves the classic game of HORSE! Now, if you haven't heard of it or never played it before, not to worry! I'll explain how it works." Chris said before pulling out papers that had said rules on them. "Courtesy of the rules from the Jr. NBA!"
"If you've ever played Simon Says, it's just like that, but with a basketball. In HORSE, you use your imagination to create crazy shots." Chris began to explain.
"To begin the game, one player goes first. That player gets to do anything they want before shooting. If they want to spin around 5 times, they can do it. No, seriously. You can do anything you want before taking the shot. Just as long as you make it. If you do, the other player has to do the exact same thing. If the first player misses, the second player gets to give it a try. This will keep happening until someone makes the first shot. Once that happens, if the second player that goes can't make that exact same shot, they get the letter H." Chris explained.
"And it's rinse and repeat from there. Everyone keeps playing and tries to be creative with their shots until someone misses and spells out the word HORSE. If you do that, that's not a good thing. If that happens, you lose!" Chris said.
"Everyone get the rules of the game?" Chris asked. Everyone gave different responses to show their understanding.
"Welp, for the most part, you can throw all of that out!" Chris said, putting away the papers.
"What? What was the point of explaining that to us then? That literally made no sense." Dipper said.
"Remember, I said for the most part, you still need to know the basics. However, we're not gonna be doing this with a basketball, a court, or even nets, as you can see." Chris said.
"Look ahead of you and above you!" Chris said as the campers did just that. There were several different objects placed in the sky. From balloons to boxes, to several other objects. "That is what you're going to be interacting with! Because these objects, will be your targets!"
"And just how are we supposed to be able to hit them?" Azula asked.
"Good question! Because I'm about to get to that. Like I said, you will not be using a basketball. Fun fact, a baseball player Frank Robinson coined the phrase "close only counts in horseshoes and hand grenades", meaning that close isn't good enough if you lose. It's still a loss. Which is exactly how this game works. You have to match or do better to not get a letter. And with the quote coming from a baseball player, you will be using baseball bats to hit the balls toward different areas. Each object is worth points! The farther back the object is, the more points its worth. The closest being 1 point, and the farthest objects being 5 points! Airborne objects are worth double the points." Chris said.
"Now, to make things even more interesting, the pool that you'll have to choose from will be even more limited than it is now. You will need to pick a teammate that has a fist, middle, or last name that starts with each letter in the word 'horse'. If you don't have a team member that fits that, don't worry, we'll go forward or back letters until the closest one is found. So for example, each team will have to pick someone that has a first, middle or last name that starts with the letter H. The moment one of the teams gets an H, that team needs to choose a new player that has a first, middle, or last name that starts with O, and so on and so fourth, until one team spells HORSE. The team that doesn't spell HORSE wins invincibility and a big breakfast! My treat! The losing team will be treated to a not so big breakfast and will be sending someone home tonight. Also my treat! But regardless, you all will win the right to go back to bed once this challenge is over." Chris said, before pulling out a familiar gun. "Any questions?"
"Where are the balls?" Adam asked.
"They haven't been made. Yet." Chris said, smiling.
"I don't like that look." Adam said, worried.
"Pick your representatives for the first letter and I'll explain what happens next." Chris said. "Though this would only apply for the Phoenixes. The Lions only have one representative for H! Huey!"
"Well, it's out of Zoey, Heather, Hawkeye and Dan." Sokka said.
"I'll go!" Dan Hibiki said, fired up.
"I'm going." Hawkeye said.
"Agreed." Courtney said, which saddened Dan Hibiki.
***Confessional***
Hawkeye(Soaring Phoenixes):
"I'll admit that I'm tired, but I trust myself even tired more than I trust Dan."
***End Confessional***
***Confessional***
Dan Hibiki(Soaring Phoenixes):
"All I know is that Hawkeye better not mess this up!"
***End Confessional***
***Confessional***
Courtney(Soaring Phoenixes):
"No offense to that Dan, but I trust a sleepy Hawkeye more than I trust him, even if he has the most energy left out of all of us. I didn't forget what happened with the car in the arcade game challenge."
***End Confessional***
After the Phoenixes agree on Hawkeye, Chris said, "Okay! Now I can explain what happens next. Now, you may recognize this gun from the pinball challenge. Yeah, it's Dr. Doofenshmirtz's Rubberband-inator, in all its terribly-named glory. One of you from each team, will be a ball. And to make sure there aren't any second thoughts about hitting your teammate with a bat, they'll be the balls for the opposing team! And plus, they get to cool off once they land in the water! And wake themselves up a bit more Don't worry, if you can't swim, I'll throw life preservers. Or the contestants that aren't participating can get you out if you can't swim, or if you're too lazy or unable to get out on your power." Chris said.
"Billy, you're the ball." Mandy said.
"Okay!" Billy said.
"Ed, get over there lug nut." Eddy said.
Chris zaps them both. And as he did, the weapon seemed to lose power. "Wow, did that drain it? Gonna have to find out later." Chris said before putting it away.
"Alright, Phoenixes, you go first!" Chris said.
***Confessional***
Chris:
"Why'd I pick them to go first even though they have Hawkeye? Because I'm actually interested to see how well he performs tired."
***End Confessional***
"Alright, Ed will be shot out of this cannon by Chef." He says as Chef rolls in the cannon. "Your job is to hit him, of course, in the direction you want to go, making sure he hits the targets you're trying to hit. Now, you can hit more than one target since they can bounce off of or go through certain objects, so keep that in mind too. Oh, and fair warning, you might not want to miss." Chris said, a suspicious grin on his face as he said that.
Chris blows a whistle. "Play Ball!" He said, which was also the signal for Chef to launch Ed.
"Look at me, Double D! I'm flying! As graceful as a bird!" Ed said.
"If by bird, you mean dodo bird." Heather said before laughing, causing Vicky to laugh as well. Marinette, Bridgette and Leshwana frowned at the remark.
***Confessional***
Bridgette(Soaring Phoenixes):
"Okay, I know he's on the other team. And truth be told, he might not be the brightest, but that was mean."
***End Confessional***
***Confessional***
Leshawna(Fighting Lions):
"It's like every time she opens her mouth, I like her less and less. What's she gonna do next, read someone's diary out loud?"
***End Confessional***
Hawkeye, to no one's surprise, still was able to hit Ed cleanly, even if he was sleepy. Ed flew into an anvil before dropping back down to the grown and hitting a crate.
"A double play! 15 points go to Hawkeye!" Chris said.
"Wow."
"What, you thought because I was sleepy I still can't hit my mark? Gee, it's like I'm really underappreciated around here." Hawkeye said.
"Huey! You're up!"
Huey slowly walked up, bat in his hands, clearly looking tired.
"Can we switch him out? He really looks tired." Ruby asked.
"Either he goes, or your team gets an H. Your choice!" Chris said.
"It's okay. I got it." Huey said.
"It looks like you don't got it. Go ahead and get you some rest. We can handle this." Leshawna said.
Huey still held up the bat anyway. He blinked a few times, because he couldn't really see straight. The island, the water and the objects were all blurry to him. When Chef launched the ball on Chris' signal, he was able to hit it, but he was only able to get 2 points out of it.
"2 points! Look at it this way, you do get an A for effort!" Chris said. "As you can see here, H is up for the Lions!" Chris said to the audience as the overlay was shown.
"But I don't see it." Lindsay said, looking around.
"I think that's more for the audience to see, not us." Ben16 said.
"Ohhh. That makes sense." Lindsay said before yawning.
"Next up! O for the Lions! Luz or Dipper! Take your pick!"
"I've got this. I've got a baseball bat back at my house. Though I never really used it that much." Luz said.
"Well, that's better than me. Go ahead!" Dipper said, trying to be positive.
***Confessional***
Luz(Fighting Lions):
"Okay. Some I'm going up against not just a superhero, but one of the Avengers. And he's the most accurate guy on their team. And I'm playing to make sure no one on my team gets sent home. No pressure." Luz says before laughing nervously. "I'm under no pressure at all! Nor am I secretly sweating inside!" She said, laughing even more. "Did I mention that I'm going up against an Avenger?"
***End Confessional***
Luz was up. Chris launches the ball. She swings wildly, just hoping that she hit Billy, who was all but laughing. And she did.
"Yes! I did it! I-" Billy sails over all of the objects but one.
"Got 10 points! That's good right?" Luz said.
"Yep! Now let's see if Hawkeye can top it!"
"Is that even a question?" Hawkeye said.
He hit Ed again. This time, going for another double play. He bounces to the left.
"Another 15! That's an O for the Lions!"
"Hey, you tried your best. That's all you can ask for." Ippo said, trying to console Luz.
"Yeah, I guess." Luz said.
"R! Rally! Raph! Shaggy! Ryoma! Who's going?"
"I watch baseball all the time back home! I'm gonna knock this one outta the park!" Raph said, confidently.
"Not much of a sports person. Knock yourself out." Rally said.
"Like if having to go up against a baseball loving virus counts, then I'd be great at it! But," Shaggy says before laughing, "It doesn't."
"Hawkeye's usin' that anvil to get double plays and knock out targets for us. I gotta do the same thing." Raph said.
Raph gets a bat before swinging once a ball comes his way. He hits Billy and bounces him off the anvil to the right crate.
"That's 15 for Raph!" Chris said, causing the others to cheer.
"Aw yeah baby! Top that Hawkeye!" Leshawna said.
"I don't think he can. He's got no more targets left. And I think he knows it too." Raph thought confidently.
Hawkeye swings, but does the unthinkable. He bounces Ed off the nearest crate, which sends him upward and causes him to go towards the anvil and hit a target worth 4 points.
"A triple play! 15 points! Can anyone on the Lions stop Hawkeye! He is absolutely knocking this challenge out of the park!" Chris said.
Raph wouldn't be beaten that easily. He would score 15 on the next one with Hawkeye matching again. After that, Raph scored only 12. The Lions had an R. But the available targets were getting lower and lower.
"S! Shaggy, Scooby or Weiss! Gotta be one of you three!" Chris said.
"Like man, I guess I'll give it a try!" Shaggy said, before grabbing the bat.
***Confessional***
Shaggy(Fighting Lions):
"Scoob and I have watched baseball before on TV several times. Besides, we only have to swing once! If Velma were here she'd probably say we have a 50% chance to get a hit! How hard can it be?"
***End Confessional***
Chef launches the ball at a tired, but determined Shaggy. He swung. And hit! Three targets! Two in the air, including the anvil and one on the ground/water.
"Triple play! 19 points for Shaggy!"
"Like wow! I did it!" Shaggy said before laughing, still not believing that he was able to do something like that.
"That was incredible Shaggy!" Fred said.
"Great job!" Alex said.
"Like I'm just as amazed as you guys are!" Shaggy said.
***Confessional***
Shaggy(Fighting Lions):
"I guess watching those baseball games did pay off! Not to mention the fact that we've done at least three mysteries involving baseball. The Phantom Virus, the Baseball Spectre, and the Ghost of Chip Braverton!"
***End Confessional***
Even with the targets that were left, Hawkeye was unable to match Shaggy's score.
"Come on, you don't get points for hitting a target twice?" Hawkeye asked.
"Nope!" Chris said.
"Whatever." Hawkeye said, walking away.
"H for the Phoenixes! Next up, Peter!"
"Great. The one time I'm solely picked again it's for another sport. Spidey senses don't fail me now." Peter thought.
Peter, thanks to his spider senses, swings and scores a solid 8.
Shaggy swings again and gets a ten from hitting the anvil. Unfortunately, he sends the anvil into the water after sending Billy over the anvil, causing him to hit the balloons keeping it in the air.
"Well, there goes the anvil! But Shaggy scores 10!" Chris said. "Peter has to score a 10 or greater to avoid earning his team an O." Chris said.
Peter swings and hits, but gets the same score in the exact same way for another 8 and another letter for his team.
"Rigby! Rick! Who's it gonna be?" Chris asked.
"Alright, its time to show you losers how its done." Rick said.
"No way! I'm doing this!" Rigby said.
"Dude, just let him do it." Mordecai said.
"Why?"
"Would you rather the chance that Rick gets it right or messes up, or a chance that you get hit with the ball? Who knows, you could end up being like the ostrich thing with the balls." Mordecai said.
Rigby gave a quick glance downward before saying, "Okay! Go ahead! But you better not mess this up!" Rigby said.
"Whatever. Let's get this over with Chris! I want to go back to f[censored]ing sleep!" Rick said. He sends Ed towards him and swings.
He gets an 8.
Shaggy also gets an 8.
On the second time, Rick slightly misses his target and gets no points.
"Gotdamn it." Rick said.
"R for the Phoenixes!"
***Confessional***
Rick(Soaring Phoenixes):
"If it gets me closer to going to sleep, fine, I'll take it. I really don't f[censored]ing care right now."
***End Confessional***
"Sokka. Sokka." Courtney said, waving her hands in front of him. "Hello?" When Sokka gave her a look a way he normally wouldn't, Courtney asked, "Why are you staring at me like that?"
"Hey, hey good lookin'." Sokka said, arms flailing before trying to kiss her. Courtney backs away.
"Oh come on, don't you miss me? It's me, Sokka!" Sokka said. What he saw wasn't Courtney. It was Suki.
"He's clearly not in his right mind. Which is from a lack of sleep. What were you thinking of making us do this without allowing us to get enough rest?" Courtney said to Chris, while continuing to hold back Sokka with one hand as he continued to try to kiss her.
Chris could only cackle.
***Confessional***
Chris:
"Okay, in hindsight, I did not expect something like that to happen!" Chris said before trying to hold back laughter.
***End Confessional***
"Alright. So clearly, everyone needs some sleep. Let's hurry up and finish the challenge." Chris said. "Spongebob, since Sokka clearly isn't in any condition to do this challenge, you're up!"
"Spongebob! Ready for baseball action!" Spongebob said, suddenly enthusiastic and full of energy.
Once Spongebob grabbed a bat and got into a batting stance, Chef sent Ed his way. He swung and made his mark.
"6! Below average, but not too bad!" Chris said.
Shaggy was up next. He swung. But he was way off the mark when it comes to Billy hitting anything.
"Wow. That would have been a home run had this been actual baseball. But it's not. We played that already. Shaggy! You're out! Next up! Double D! You're the last line of defense on your team! If you get an E, your team loses!" Chris said.
"You've got this!" Ruby said, trying to be encouraging.
"There is some chance that you can hit it! Believe in yourself!" Velma said.
"Not too hard but not too soft either. Try ta send it a little higher for the double points!" Raph said.
"Thank you for the words of encouragement!" Edd said.
The second Chef sent out Billy, Marinette yelled out "Sokka!"
He was walking towards the water.
Falcon and June were the first ones to get to him.
"Come on, let's take a swim, the water's fine!" Sokka said, arms flailing.
"You should go dive in bed." Falcon said.
A grenade was approaching Edd before it went off, blinding him for several seconds.
"And that's where the hand grenade part comes in! That's why I said you might not want to miss. Along with the fact that now you'll have to beat whatever Spongebob scores!" Chris said.
Spongebob swings and gets another solid eight.
"Edd! Time for your redemption! For you and your team's sake anyway. I don't really care." Chris said.
Chef sends Billy. Edd hits it, but he sends Billy wide left. Not even into the water. Into the beach sand.
"That my friends is a foul ball. And is also an E for the Fighting Lions! The Soaring Phoenixes win!" Chris said.
"Yeah!" Falcon said.
"Woohoo!" Courtney said.
"Woooooah." Mordecai and Rigby said, though a lot quieter and a lot less enthusiastic than they usually are.
"Phoenixes! Your big breakfast awaits! Lions! Same to you! But, not so big! Along with the elimination ceremony tonight!" Chris said.
"If at first you don't succeed, try again until you do!" Ed said.
"Try again? Try again!?"Anne picks up Edd and shakes him. "Dude! All you had to do was hit it forward! Was that so hard? No! It wasn't you... you..." Anne said, before stopping herself after feeling everyone's stares.
She sighs. "Sorry. I'm just really, really sleepy. And frustrated. And hungry." Anne said.
"Oh, and once you're done eating, head to the boat waiting out front, there's something you need to see." Chris said.
***Confessional***
Azula(Fighting Lions):
"I don't know why she apologized. She spoke the truth." Azula said, shrugging. "We have lost three matches in a row. I was being pretty nice before. But no more. Failure will be met with consequences. And rest assured someone on this team will be made an example of tonight."
***End Confessional***
At the table, more than half of the contestants on both teams were sleep.
Ben16's face just fell in his dry pancakes.
"Okay, maybe we should have let them sleep first." Chris said.
"And what are we gonna do with the food! My cookin' is not goin' to waste! And don't say you're gonna use it for a challenge!" Chef said. "I really tried with this food Chris. I really did." Chef said.
"Like don't worry Chef, we got it covered!" Shaggy said.
"Reah!" Shaggy said.
"Oh man, I'm starving!" Goku said.
"Wow, this is really good Chef!" Tikki said, eating a pancake.
Ippo could only laugh at the three.
"Well, that answers that question." Chris said.
"How about we do brunch?" Chef said, suddenly smiling.
"Uh sure! Why not?" Chris said, shrugging.
***Confessional***
Chef:
"I may give the campers a hard time. But to tell you the truth, it really makes me feel good to see my cooking appreciated by not just one, or two, but multiple people around here!" Chef said, smiling.
***End Confessional***
***Confessional***
Chris:
"So I did promise them the reward of a meal. And I will admit that it wasn't exactly the best idea to give them that reward while they were tired. So, why not? And, I did promise them that I'd do something for the petition. I just hate the fact that I couldn't give the losing team something more, you know, not good. But don't worry, I'll more than make up for that later on." Chris said, a devious grin on his face.
***End Confessional***
"Okay! The campers are sleeping! And we're gonna take a bit of a commercial break! Don't go anywhere!" Chris said.
*Commercial Break*
The Multiversal Nexus Short: The Substitute Teacher Mr. Garvey & The Classroom of the Multiverse(A/N: This is based on the Key & Peele Skits. Seeing the Paramount Plus Ad of Keegan Michael-Key doing it with different characters inspired me to come up with this one. Their skits are awesome! Check them out on Youtube!)
A teacher walks in with a white dress shirt and brown tie with short black stripes. The class quiets down.
"Alright y'all good morning!"
"Good morning!" Several people called out.
"My name is Mr. Garvey, and I'll be substituting for your teacher today." The teacher said. "From what I've been told, this is uh... some sort of mixed class right? Like you learn different subjects and what not? Can uh, anybody confirm that?"
"Yes, Mr. Garvey, that is exactly how it is." Weiss Schnee said.
"Alright. Thank you." Mr. Garvey said, putting his clipboard down and writing down his name on the blackboard.
"Okay. Your teacher has told me that everything you need is supposed to be with you on paper. But if you do not have it on paper, he said it is online, so you can go ahead and use your computers too if you need to. He said somethin' about scrolls for some of y'all, but I don't know how that works. Like we're in the 19th century or some movie or somethin' but whatever. But before y'all get started, let me take role first." He said, picking up the clipboard.
"Now let me say this before I start. I've been teaching for 20 years in the inner city. So don't think about tryin' nothin' with me. Y'all understand?"
Some students responded to show their understanding, while others didn't.
"Okay. Let's uh get this role taken care of." Mr. Garvey said before looking on the clipboard.
"Let's see here." He said, looking on the clipboard.
"A dam! Is A dam here?" Everyone looks around.
"A dam?" No response.
"No A dam? Okay." Mr. Garvey said, about to mark them absent.
"Um, sir?" A boy with gingered colored hair, a yellow t-shirt, and dark green cargo pants with freckles on his cheeks said, raising his hand.
"Yes, sir?" Mr. Garvey said.
"Do you mean Adam?" Adam Lyon asked.
"What's it to you? Is this you?"
"Yes, sir." Adam said.
"Well, why didn't you answer when I first called your name? Too busy talkin'?"
"Uh, no sir! It's just that you said my name wrong so I didn't know you were talking about me." Adam said.
"I said your name right! Ly on seems like the perfect last name to you. You seem to like to lie! Gonna keep an eye on you. You look like you trouble." Mr. Garvey said before looking down at the clipboard again. "All right, who's next. Balake? Where's Balake?"
"No Balake today?"
"Uh Blake, I think he's talking about you." Yang whispered to the Faunus.
"Um, Mr. Garvey sir?" Blake said, raising her hand.
"Yes ma'am?"
"Do you mean Blake?"
Mr. Garvey sighs before trying not to aggressively drop the clipboard.
"Look now, we not about to do this."
"Do what?"
"'Do what'?" Mr. Garvey said, imitating her. "That right there! That attitude! We not about to do this! Don't think 'cause you got them cute little 'cat ears' that you can do whatever the hell you want or say whatever you want to say around here! Because I'm for real! I'm for real!"
"Okay." Blake said, not sure how to take what just happened.
"A lex! Where's A lex at?" Mr. Garvey said.
Alex raised her hand. "Um, excuse me Mr. Garvey?" Alex said.
"You seem like a nice young lady. What do you need sweetie?" Mr. Garvey asked.
"Um, I just want to correct the naming. It's Alex." Alex said, giving a friendly smile.
Mr. Garvey dropped the clipboard.
"You know what? You know what? That's it! I see what's happenin' here! Y'all think that because y'all from these different worlds and places that y'all can talk to normal little ol' me however you want to." He said, flailing his hands as he said "different worlds and places". "Well guess what, I told y'all! I been doin' this for 20 years! 20 damn it! Now I may not have been blessed with the stuff y'all can do, but I can damn sure go to war with y'all! Now if y'all don't want that, y'all gon' say y'all names right! And stop disrespectin' me!" He said, picking up the clipboard.
"Y'all keep on, and I'ma leave a negative note for y'all teacher. Y'all ain't gon' like that huh?" He said, before looking down.
"Why You Ko! Where's Why You Ko?"
Ryuko Matoi sighed, wondering if she should just get this over with and just raise her hand.
"What you sighin' for? You got a problem?" Mr. Garvey asked.
"No sir. I'm just wondering why you can't seem to take the hint that you're butchering everyone's names." Ryuko said.
"Got damn it! Son of a b*tch!" Mr. Garvey said, breaking the clipboard, surprising even Ryuko.
"You thought I was playin'? Huh?" He said, pointing at Ryuko.
"Trust me pal, I'm not either!" Ryuko said, standing up to face Mr. Garvey.
"Ohhhhhhh! So you tryin' to go to war?"
"Yeah! Bring it on!" Ryuko said.
"Sit back down! And say your name right! Why You Ko!"
"It's Ryuko!"
"Why You Ko!"
"Ryuko!"
"Why You Ko!"
"Ryuko!"
"WHY YOU KO!"
"RY-U-KO!"
They continued their shouting match for a few more minutes.
"Is this ever going to end?" Tristan Taylor asked Dan Kuso.
"Shh! Don't say anything! Maybe it'll last all the way until the end of class." Dan said.
"This has been more fun than like, all of my classes with Mr. Teacher Man combined!" Johnny Test, a flaming-headed kid said.
"I could easily just send you flying through this roof right now, but I really got to go the bathroom. So can I just go?" Ryuko asked.
"You're excused."
"Just like that huh? This guy is one weird substitute teacher." She said to herself in the hallway, while going to the bathroom.
"See? That's all you gotta do! Act civil! I can work with you!" Mr. Garvey said before getting the clipboard that was broken in half. Which didn't seem to faze him as he picked up the top half and started reading off the paper again.
"We iss? Where is We iss? Gettin' a little fancy with the extra s on there huh? Sounds like a snake." He said before hissing.
"Um, do you mean Weiss, sir?"
"Oh my-" He said, throwing his hands up before grabbing his head.
"Did you not hear what I just said earlier?"
"Being civil? But Mr. Garvey, I am being civil and respectful." Weiss said.
"Don't try to act all innocent! You know what you did!" He said before going down the list.
"Dar win! Who's Dar win?"
"Right here sir!" Darwin Watterson said, raising his hand.
"Thank you! See? Least we got a couple of students that actually show some decency! Maybe the rest of y'all could learn a thing or two from them!"
"Alright, let's see here. Y ang! Y ang! Well, let's see we actually got three here so let me go to the last names..." He said, looking over to the other side of the paper.
"Xi a o Long! Who's that?"
"It's pronounced Xiao Long." The blonde huntress said.
"You think because it's the last name it's gonna be anything different! No! Now say it right!" Mr. Garvey said.
"How about you say our names right? Say my name right, and I promise to not give you any problems." Yang said.
"For what? What you want me to do somethin' I already did? Absolutely not! You not about to mock me!"
"We don't have to, he's doing a pretty good job a it himself." Bakugo said to the Pokemon trainer Gary next to him. They both got a laugh out of it.
"What's funny?" He said, now standing in front of their desks.
Bakugo and Gary stopped laughing.
"Well, seeing as how y'all were kee keeing and hee heeing a second ago, I thought you two would want to share what's so funny, with the class?" Mr. Garvey said.
"I'LL TELL YOU WHAT'S FUNNY! YOU! YOU'RE A JOKE YOU KNOW THAT? WHAT KIND OF AN IDIOT CAN'T EVEN SAY NOT ONE OF HIS STUDENTS' NAME RIGHT?" Bakugo yelled. "You can't even be bothered to listen to people when they correct you either! And you only got Darwin's name right by complete accident!"
"Oh no. I'm not taking that disrespect! Get yo ass out this class! And your little friend too! What's y'all names?"
"Bakugo."
"Gary." The only reason they even gave him the names was so they could laugh at him more.
"Callin' somebody idiots and y'all can't even say y'all own damn names right! Back U Go! Yeah, back you go to detention, 'cause you probably always there with that behavior! Gar Y! I don't even know what I'm lookin' at with this name. Parents probably asking why they even named you that so they put the Y at the end. Just get out my class!"
Bakugo and Gary were heard laughing in the hallway.
"A ang! Where you at?"
"Oh! You're talking to me! I'm here!" Aang said.
"M'kay." He said before going to the next person. "Uh Ru by! Where's Ru by at?"
"Here sir!" Ruby Rose sad, raising her hand, not wanting the conflict with Mr. Garvey.
"Alright, I see y'all! Tryin' to really win me over!" Mr. Garvey said.
"Umm, let's see here. Shy Kame A R U?"
"*sigh* Yep." Shikamaru said, raising his hand, just wanting to get this over with.
"Be in! Where's Be in?"
"Ben? Hello, it's not that hard." The ten year-old said.
"Damn it, damn it, damn it!" He said, throwing the clipboard at the board.
The hijinks continued until everyone in the room was called.
*End Commercial Break*
"Welcome back to Total Drama Island: Multiverse Edition! We're gonna speed things up a bit thanks to the time cards. And then, catch up with our campers as we head to Boney Island! For this one, we'll just go with a stock one. " Chris said.
2 Hours Later
"All right! Everyone head to the boats! You're heading to boney islands!" Chris said.
***Confessional***
Chris:
"Look, I made a hefty payment for all of those rentals combined. Better believe I'm going to get as much use for them as I can this season!" Chris said.
***End Confessional***
The contestants all stepped off Boney Islands. They followed Chris to a tent... with, all of the eliminate campers in it from the episode?
"I don't understand. You said they'd all be eliminated if they went to sleep." Falcon said.
"Yeah, I lied." Chris said.
"Are you serious?" Heather said.
"Yes! I did all of this! The waking up early, forcing you to stay awake to avoid elimination, turning you into balls, destroying stuff. That was all me. I came up with these ideas because I got tired of my stuff being destroyed! Since some people here think that I had it coming for a long time." Chris said, frowning as he got to the last part, which caused Leshawna to frown back at the host.
"I decided I'd mess with you. But the twist was that anyone that went to sleep did not have to participate in the next challenge. That's right, just for sleeping, they got immunity! Along with Ed and Billy for enduring whatever pain they felt during the challenge!"
"Isn't that great? A victory! And I didn't even have to lift a finger!" Reimu said, drinking orange juice out of a straw.
"Yeah uh, your team didn't win." Chris said.
Sweat dropped down Reimu's a second her mouth was agape a little, embarrassed by her own lack of knowledge, especially something involving her team.
"You'll be sending someone home tonight! And because its pretty clear that not everyone was paying attention to the challenge, I'm gonna limit the votes to those that actually participated in the challenge even if they didn't play because of the naming. This may be a game changer for who gets eliminated. This might not be. Who knows? What I do know is that someone's going home tonight! I'll see you there! Oh and enjoy your brunch!" Chris said, walking away.
"Brunch?" Ruby asked.
"Brunch?" Scooby, Shaggy, Goku, Ippo and several others all said at the same time, eagerly looking forward to it.

"Fighting Lions! Back in familiar territory! For the third time in a row. Which means you should already know how this works. Now, again, there were less votes because I only allowed those that actually participated to vote, so that no one can say they were voted off unfairly. So once you're gone, that's it! You're done here! For good!"
"Now then, I'll just toss them to you to speed this up. I want you guys to sleep in early tonight. And no, I won't wake you up at a super early time like I did today." Chris said, yawning himself.
"Ed! You got immunity, so the first marshmallow goes to you!" He said, tossing Ed the marshmallow.
"KO!"
"Fred!"
"Izzy!"
"Scooby!"
"Ben!"
"Goku!
"Misty!"
"Ash!"
"Ryoma!"
"Eddy!"
"Dipper!"
"Doyle!"
"Leshawna!"
"Azula!"
"Ty Lee!"
"Rally!"
"Ruby!"
"Weiss!"
"Blake!"
"Yang!"
"Alex!"
"Frank!"
"Lindsay!"
Shaggy, Huey, Raph, Luz, Anne, and Edd were the only ones left.
"Luz and Anne!"
"Raph!"
"Shaggy!"
"Edd! Huey!"
"You're the last two! One of you will be leaving here with a marshmallow. One of you will be leaving here with your bags. The final marshmallow goes to..."

Huey's expression never changed, while Edd was nervous. Even his legs were shaking.

"Huey!"
"Eddy! You don't happen to have another one of those papers do you?"
"Nope. Sorry man."
"Is Double D leaving?" Ed asked.
"Yep. Unfortunately." Eddy said.
Ed burst into tears. "I will miss you Double D!"
"I will be fine. Don't you worry about me. I put up a valiant effort, even if I did come up short!"
"Valiant, schmaliant! You shoulda hit that ball, or this never would have happened!" Eddy said to Edd.
"Can't say I'm really surprised. You were probably the worst out of everyone here when it comes to athleticism from what I've seen. And it definitely showed today." Chris said.
"Yeah Double D. You sucked." Eddy said frankly.
"Thank you for the words of encouragement." Double D said sarcastically. "Are those going to be your last words to me before I get on the boat?" Double D asked.
"Don't worry, Ed and I have got this in the bag!" Eddy said to Double D before grinning and showing his teeth.
"I wish you all good luck!" Double D said before going to get his bags.
"Goodbye! I shall see you all back at Peach Creak!" Double D said on the boat.
"So an Ed is eliminated! But not the one you think first! And while I really was being nice to the campers, two extra things. One: I need my beauty sleep. This effected me too. And two: Remember when I said I'd have something to make up for the not so good food the Lions got? Yeah, that something is their next challenge! Hope you got your taste buds ready! And maybe even a chef's hat and cookbook! Or a barf bag! Or all three! Because for three days straight, they will be subjected to food-based challenges! But don't tell them that! It'll ruin the surprise for them!" Chris said.
"If you're deciding on which of those things I mentioned earlier to get, find out next time on Total... Drama... Island! Multiverse Edition!"
A/N: And there's the chapter! Yep, you read right in the interdimensional cable part, that second to last one during Rick's testing of interdimensional cable on the island was a direct reference to Total Drama Infinite by MemeKing the Third! His and several others that I've mentioned throughout this story are the reason why I decided to right this one! You all are inspirations! I like doing references, easter eggs and cameos so why not have his story be referenced!
The channel before that is an AU where Blaineley is the host and not Chris. Probably Chris' worst nightmare lol. Letting Blaineley touching anything involving Total Drama hosting.
The one with Doyle is a reference to Mondays in the Anti-Matter dimension, the evil counterpart of the Saturdays.
The first one is a reference to MK: Annihilation.
The last channel is a reference to Bolbi from Jimmy Neutron and his infamous Slap Slap Slap Clap Clap Clap.
The references when Rick showed Spongebob Interdimensional cable were the following by the order they came:
1. Camp Lazlo AU where Heffer from Rocko's Modern Life is their scoutmaster
2. Camp Camp episode Romeo And Juliet II
3. Surfer Cats from Saturn: Biker Mice From Mars 2006 Episode where they meet talking cats from Saturn that love to surf.
4. Destroy Build Destroy: An actual game show from the CN Real Era. Yes, even the most notorious corners of history and the multiverse get a mention in this story. Don't have much else to say that other people probably haven't said already. This era was not good. And forgettable. Literally. Half the shows got cancelled in one season and most EPs for the shows are considered lost media. Destroy Build Destroy was probably the best thing from that era with Andrew W.K. And other than Inside Jimmy's Head, this was the only thing I watched from that era when I was kid back then. And probably the most reasonably obtainable and watchable as there are episodes on youtube. Also, another weird and random fun fact: Lil John's son was on CN for this show. This was a thing that actually happened lol
And no, I'm not gonna talk about Out of Jimmy's Head. The Othersiders was probably a whole lot worse lol. I don't remember much about Out of Jimmy's Head, and while I might rewatch it, that doesn't mean it'll make a cameo here lol.
Some more random trivia/thought, Dax looks a lot like Beta Luz when it comes to design. Minus the fact that Dax wears pants and a different shirt. I'm not kidding lol.
