The Second Challenge

Out at sea, a dangerous force was approaching the island - one that would change all of the island's inhabitants lives forever...

The two teams arrived ready for their second challenge. Ansem was singing a song that went like this : "Destiny! Destiny! How I will follow your every order - what's that you say? Commit mass murder? Paint a fence border? Pick up the shiny quarter? If that's your order!" Realizing that he had company, he cleared his threat and had the decency to look embarrased. He was about to continue speaking when aomeone called out,

"Hey! You weren't about to start the challenge without me, were you?!" A girl with long black hair (and exciting pink streaks in it!) pulled up into a pony tail approached. She was dressed simply - shorts and a t-shirt that read 'taco of doom'.

"Who are you?" Ansem asked confused.

"Why, I'm the host of this show!" she said, "I'm the great and all mighty Imogene!" A look of realization crossed Ansem's face and he said,

"Oh... your'e the new intern- wait, hold on a second I'm-a-genie-"

"I'ts Imogene!"

"Whatever. Lets get one thing straight. I am the host here - not you!"

'But I wanna be the host!"

"Never! I went to college to prepare for this job adn you can't take it from me!"

Imogene got a dangerous glint in her eyes. She reached into her pocket and pulled out a pair of sunglasses. She put them on in a fluid motion and pointed a finger at Ansem. "Prepare to loose your crown capitain underpants!"

"Underpa-?" Before Ansem could finish his question, Imogene charged him. With one good punch, Ansem was out, droolling in the sand.

"Anyways, as he was saying, today's challenge will be a game of luck. There are 19 covered platters with some king of food underneath them. Each team chooses 3 people to participate. First team to finish eating 9 platters wins."

The gathering of people looked from Imogene to the unconcious Ansem. They decided to just go with it.

"Where's the challenge in that?" Larxene asked. Imogene chuckled and said,

"Some if those platters have quite unpleasant things in them." There were some nervous glances at the platters.

Sora, Luxord and Lexaeus were elected from team Warriors of Justice. Larxene, Xaldin and Yuffie were the contenders from team Dominators.

"Oh, and one more thing - once you have lifted the lid you must eat whatever is on the platter." Imogene said, "Now ready, set, popcorn!" Everyone glared at the girl. "Sheesh, you guys are no fun. Go!"

Lexaeus picked up his first lid and got 4 sticks of celery. "Ewww. I hate celery." he said before he started eating.

Sora lifted his and got cottage cheese. "Aww man..." He looked at Luxord to see if he had faired any better and saw to his astonishment that the gambler had a slice of pizza and was eating it quite contently. Xaldin got squash with vinegar sauce. Yuffie got a grapefruit. Larxene got a stick of butter.

"This is going to ruin my figure!" she complained. This continued for a while.

Xaldin was on his 3rd plate and he picked up the lid to find...Escargot! He took one look at the dish and fainted.

"It can't be that bad." Yuffie said looking over to his dish. Seeing the food, she fainted as well.

"Damn it! You wussies!" Larxene screamed as she stuffed lima beans in her mouth. Ansem sighed and said,

"Looks like the poor souls got it by the fainting snail's aura. It's a new species found off the coast of Canada."

"When did you wake up?!" Kairi exclaimed.

"Wouldn't you like to know..." Ansem said suspiciously raising an eyebrow.

"Well you can bet your entire collection of eighties peace medalions that I won't give up!" Imogene exclaimed as she threw down a smoke bomb and ran off into the cover of the trees. So, after that little episode, team Warriors of Justice were declared as the winners of the challenge.

"What's the prize? What's the prize?!" Sora asked jumping up and down.

"You win Bob the Builder blankies!" Ansem said. "Congratulations! (Destiny!)"

"Yay!" Sora squealed and broke out in a rendition of the Bob the Builder theme song.

Suddenly, Sephiroth came out of the trees and said, "Prepare for a fight."

"Umm, you're a little late." Riku said breaking the news to the man.

"You got lost, didn't you?" Cloud asked, smirking

"Shut up emo boy." Sephiroth replied.

-At Council Fire-

Team Dominators sat nervously as the final person cast their vote. (Xaldin was still unconscious so he didn't get to vote). Ansem poofed out of nowhere and began tallying the votes. When he was finished, he said, "There are 2 votes for Xaldin, 1 for Larxene and 8 for Cid. I'm sorry Cid, but it is not in your Destiny to compete any further than this." Ansem extinguished Cid's flame.

"Well that sucks. I didn't even make it past the first round." Cid said, "I thought I was the hippest young thing to ever hit the beach but it looks like I was wrong...Oh well, at least I get to go home and watch my favorite soaps all daaaaaaaaaaaay!!"

Yep, you guessed it - it was the trap door again.

"Oh my holy corndogs!" Demyx exclaimed, "Is he okay?!"

"Who cares? Let's go." Larxene said irritably. So they all went back to their campsite where they dreamt of eating cotton candy and throwing oranges.

review and tell me who you think is next to get voted off of the island.

You may be right - then again, you may be wrong. heh
