"And Max wins the challenge for the Dolphins!" Chris cheered, as Max bowed to his team. "Let's get ready for part two!"
The campers all stepped out of the water. They were given a chance to warm up, before part two began.
"Alright, nice job Max, now we just gotta win part two, and we go two weeks straight without losing a camper!" Todd cheered, the entire team did the same.
"Plus, we get an advantage now! So we have a better chance of winning dudes!" Quill said, "Good stuff bruh!"
"We don't need a stupid advantage to win, we can pile-drive those sissy punks into the sand of the beach no matter what!" Norm stated, "You hear me, we should turn down the advantage!"
"That's…, stupid…," Connor commented, causing Norm to get in his face.
"What was that Connor? Do you know what advantages are for?" Norm asked, staring Connor straight in the eyes.
"Ummm…, giving people a better chance of winning?" Connor asked.
"Bzzzzzzzzzzzt…," Norm shouted, "They're for sissies, losers, people who are begging for a second chance, and can get it! We don't need that crap around these parts!" Norm yelled.
"We're using the advantage Norm…," Haley mumbled.
"Ugh…, whatever! The fans will not respect ANY of you fools!" Norm stated.
(Confessional)
Norm: These idiots don't get it! Advantages are for the weak, we need to be strong, resourceful! We can win without some dumb advantage! (Flexes.)
(End)
Meanwhile, with the Lions.
"We're on the verge of losing AGAIN!" Bruno growled, "Ivan…, step up your damn game!"
"You're blaming Ivan for the loss?" Ronny asked, bewildered, while he rubbed the back of his head confusedly.
"Why not? He was the last one standing both this time, AND last time!" Bruno stated.
"Good point…," Lola agreed, as she nodded, not even looking at anyone else.
"Guys…, our team is going to completely fall apart, if we don't pull ourselves together, very soon!" Candy objected.
"Chick's right, we gotta make an effort!" Ronny cheered, as he clapped his fist against his hand.
"Phillipi doesn't work so well under pressure," Phillipi said in his enthusiastic voice.
"Phillipi better pull his game together then!" Bruno yelled, slapping Phillipi on the back of his head, Phillipi immediately turned around, the exact opposite of how he was just seconds ago.
"You dare touch the head of the beautiful Phillipi Fargo?!" Phillipi growled, as he spun around quickly, and glared at Bruno, his glasses fell down, as his eyes narrowed at the hulking man.
"Whoa dude…, just chill out a bit, I was just tellin' ya that you need to pick up your game if we're gonna win this next challenge…," Bruno stated.
"I heard you! But I am not going to let YOU tell ME what to do!" Phillipi growled, as he shook his fist at Bruno angrily, Candy quickly came up, and slapped Phillipi on the cheek, he instantly returned to normal. "What…, what happened?" Phillipi asked confusedly.
(Confessional)
Phillipi: Okay…, I'll come clean, I have bi-polar disorder. It's not like I want it, but when someone makes me mad…, oh do they make me maaaad.
Bruno: (His mouth is agape and his eyes are wide.) Whaaat…?
(End)
Chris sounded a bullhorn, signifying that all of the contestants were to report to the small pool that sat in the middle of the campgrounds. "Welcome kiddies," he announced, as Chef wheeled in a busted up chalkboard.
"Is this gonna hurt…?" Donovan asked, Norm rolled his eyes.
"Yes, yes, it probably will Donovan!" Chris announced with a chuckle, Donovan simply gasped and got in the fetal position.
"Part two of today's challenge is WATER POLO!" Chris stated excitedly, as he through the heavy volleyball looking sphere at Omar, who was immediately knocked down. "The point here, is to score a point on the opposing team, whilst in the water!" he finished.
"And what about our advantage?" Connor asked subjectively, with no emotion, Norm gasped.
"Don't you fools listen to me, I said we don-," Norm began, but was interrupted.
"Glad you asked Connor," Chris started, "your advantage is that you get to keep all of your people in the challenge, whilst simultaneously sitting out one of the opposing teams players."
"Wow. Good deal," Todd said with a nod, as he looked at his team, "alright guys, who are we gonna sit out?"
"Oh, forgot to mention. Even though you'll be sitting one of their players out, you're also handing that person invincibility, which will keep them around for yet another week," Chris announced.
"So…, we take one of them out for a challenge, but then they get a free pass to the next week?" Taylor question, "hardly seems fair…"
"I disagree, an advantage sounds unfair! We don't need this stupid advantage, we can win on our own!" Norm declared.
"Is that what you want?" Chris asked, a huge grin on his face.
"Darn right it's what we want!" Norm shouted, a huge grin also on his face, Kimmy smacked him hard on the back of the head.
"MORON!" Kimmy shouted, as Chris chuckled.
"Okay, the Dolphins choose to NOT use their HUUUUGE advantage, and will instead be proceeding on with the ten on ten game, which means, THEY'LL have to sit someone out," Chris announced.
"Idiot…," Haley mumbled from the sidelines.
"Well! If that's the way you feel, then maybe you should sit out Haley, I for one think taking the advantage would have made us look WEAK!" Norm said, flexing.
"It also would have been a good idea, now you guys are going DOWN!" Bruno called from the other teams area with a hearty laugh, Norm responded by flipping him off.
"Alright guys, Haley is sitting out, so the teams are now: Max, Norm, Todd, Connor, Donovan, Quill, Kimmy, Taylor, Azalea, and Elysa vs. Bruno, Ivan, Omar, Ronny, Phillipi, Candy, Mona, Wanda, Lola, aaaand Kirsten!" Chris said obnoxiously through his loudspeaker, causing everyone, especially Chef to cover their ears. "Take your positions in the pool!"
"Oh, this'll be fun! I rock at water polo!" Norm said, as he wound up his arm.
"Watch it Captain Modesty, your ego's showing," Kimmy said with a roll of her eyes, Elysa and Quill snickered from the sidelines, but Norm looked at Kimmy confusedly.
"My what?" Norm asked, Kimmy replied by facepalming, and then pinching her forehead.
"Why me?" She asked herself, as Chris blew the whistle, symbolizing the start of the game.
"Wait! I don't know how to play!" Donovan said, as he gripped his head, "Chris never explained the rules!"
"Follow me young one, I shall show you what to do!" Max sang, as he skipped across the surface of the water.
(Confessional)
Max: I am a true genius in the water, I even know how to make fires…, UNDERWATER! How cool am I?
Donovan: Max scares me…, I'm not entirely sure that he's human…
Elysa: Look…, if your hair is wet, it kind of looks like cheese! (Elysa proceeds to stare at her hair, and then begins to munch on it, but immediately spits it out.) BLECH! It does NOT taste like it though…
(End)
"YEAH! WE GOT THE BALL FIRST!" Bruno shouted, as he grabbed the ball that Chris had thrown into the middle of the pool.
"Hey Bruno, over here!" Elysa called, Bruno smirks and passes the ball to Elysa, but notices she's running the other direction with it.
"Umm…, Elysa, the enemy goal is THAT way!"
"I know, I'm on the OTHER team dummy!"
(Confessional)
Bruno: WHAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAT?!
Candy: Oh Bruno. You silly six and a half foot tall idiot…
(End)
"Wow Bruno, score one for the old brains department…," Connor said, as he lazily drifted by.
"OH SHUT IT PUNK!" Bruno growled, as he pounded his fist onto the water, sending Connor rocketing out of the pool, and into a tree.
"I should have seen that coming…"
Meanwhile, back in the game, Elysa and Quill were passing the ball back and forth between themselves, as Ivan and Candy kept on either side of them.
"These two are good…," Ivan said.
"It's just like monkey in the middle bro…, ya just gotta know when to strike," Candy said, as she pulled Quill's beanie over his eyes, letting the ball smack him in the face.
"Ouch brah…, that really harshes the mellow…," Quill said, as he collapsed backwards.
"Good thinking Candy!" Ivan said, "Now pass me the ball!"
"HERE!" Candy called, as she heaved the ball through the air, towards Ivan, he was about to catch it, but was actually completely off, and missed. In the next second, Elysa again had the ball, and managed to score a goal past inattentive goalie, Kirsten.
"Way to be there for it Ivan," Kirsten said, rolling her eyes.
"Good defense, KIRSTEN!" Mona said from behind her, also rolling her eyes.
"Whatever…"
"That's one point for the Dolphins," Chris said, "Remember, first team to three, wins the challenge!"
It was now the Lions ball, and Omar had it. He was swimming down the pool, but was caught up by an ambush set up by Taylor and Kimmy.
"Well, I can honestly say, for a scrawny little pencil boy, you're a pretty quick swimmer," Kimmy complimented.
"But…, you still aren't good enough to beat us, hon," Taylor said, as she blew Omar a kiss, and then kicked him in the, well…, you know.
"We'll be seein' ya," Kimmy said with a wink, as Omar hunched over, and screamed in pain, before sinking beneath the water. Meanwhile, as Kimmy and Taylor hurried over to the other side of the pool, a distraction was waiting for them as well. Bruno, and his GLORIOUS muscular frame.
"Hey ladies," Bruno said, with a wink as he flexed his right arm, Taylor IMMEDIATELY dropped the ball, and the two girls stared at him.
"I love muscular guys…," Kimmy drooled.
"I love…, love…," Taylor said, as she fainted, Phillipi easily managed to recover the ball now.
"To easy darlings, to easy!" Phillipi laughed, as Norm attempted to take the ball from him.
"Not as easy as ya think part-," Norm began, but immediately felt a sharp pain on his foot, and was interrupted.
"IT'S MY BALL YOU PATHETIC MEATHEAD!" Phillipi yelled, obviously his bi-polar disorder was acting up. Phillipi then continued on, and managed to score a goal for the Lions. The ball was now back on the Dolphins side, Todd tossed it up, as he was the goalie, and it landed directly in front of Azalea. Now, Azalea had her eyes closed, and was still able to easily navigate through the entire pool. Eventually, she was already deep in enemy territory.
"Someone wanna tell me how the heck she just did that?" Wanda complained.
"She's like a genie!" Ronny replied, with a huge dumb grin on his face, Wanda glared at him and raised an eyebrow.
In the meantime, the only goalie guards, Lola and Kirsten were too busy doing things of their own. Lola was filing her nails, and Kirsten was of course, picking her nose. The only goalie guard being alert, was Ivan.
Candy facepalmed, she knew there was no way anybody but Ivan could possibly stop Azalea at this point, "IVAN!" she called out, "stop Azalea!"
"Yes, right away!" Ivan replied, as he leapt towards, unfortunately, Ivan was actually not to good IN the water, and immediately sank back down. Azalea managed to sidle past him, and score yet another goal for the Dolphins. "I am so sorry comrades…," Ivan grumbled, "…I am failing you…"
(Confessional)
Ivan: The water is my weakness, my kryptonite…, I am powerless in the water…, my apologies team, I am of no use to you here…
Lola: Ivan is COMPLETELY useless in this challenge…, how are we performing so POORLY?!
(End)
"Oooo, Ivan ain't lookin' so hot!" Max said with a huge grin, "Donovan, let's go, I have a plan!"
"But I still don't even know how to play this game…," Donovan whined, as Max grabbed him, and pulled him along.
Ivan had the ball now, but as he tried to maneuver past the enemy lines, Max sprung out from just beneath the ball, launching it into the air. "Oops, sorry Ivan! I forgot you were there!" he chuckled, as he placed his fedora on Ivan's head, and grabbed his hand, "Dance with me pal!"
Ivan quickly pulled away, and looked around, he then heard a whistle blow, and saw the remaining Dolphins lifting Donovan onto their shoulders. "I actually won a challenge!" The scrawny kid shouted, as the team exited the pool, tossing Donovan into the air, Max just took his fedora, patted Ivan on the head, and chuckled as he too exited the pool.
"Way to go Ivan…, way to go…," Kirsten said, as she hopped out of the pool. Lola, Phillipi, Wanda, and Bruno all glared at him as they exited the pool, Omar, Mona, and Ronny looked at him disappointedly. Candy, however, smirked, and hatched a plan.
"Alright Lions, once again, YOU are faced with the dreaded campfire ceremony, where one of the ten of you, will be riding the boat of losers!" Chris announced, as Candy helped Ivan out of the pool.
"Ready Ivan? I'm sure you'll be fine…," Candy stated.
"No…, I should be sent home…, I failed…," Ivan mumbled.
Candy nodded, but then smirked, she knew Ivan wasn't done yet.
And there you have it, after so long, Chapter ten of Campgrounds is finally out!
Let's get those reviews rolling FOLKS! PLEEEEEEEEEEEEASE!
Anyway
Til' Next Time, Peace Out!
