It's finally here! Chapter six has arrived! Sorry it took so long, but I have a good reason. Last week, my parents surprised me with a Sweet Sixteen vacation to Hawaii, so all of last week I was having the time of my life in Kaua'i. School has offically started for me today so that means that I have less time to write and you, my unfortunate readers have longer waits for updates, but I will see what I can do. This challenge will be broken up into several chapters so that I can get them to you quicker. Here is part one of challenge two - enjoy!
I do not own anything!
"Hello campers!" Greeted the sadistic host. "Are you ready for today's challenge?" He asked, not caring whether or not there was a response.
The campers all had a look of either disinterest or annoyance on their faces.
"No one person can do all of Disney in one day, but a whole team can. Since some of you haven't been here before. So, I came up with a challenge to get you familiar with the parks. Today's challenge is called Ride the Rides Relay Challenge. Each team will have a Pass Holder who will lead the team during the challenge. The task is to do all of the Disney parks in one day. In order to win, each team must complete the shows, parades, parties, rides, and attractions at each park and be back here by the time the last park officially closes. In order to do so, only member needs to be at an attraction in order for the attraction to count and make finishing possible." Explained Chris.
"Wow, a challenge that's actually challenging for once." Said Noah, sarcastically.
"Yeah, okay, anyway, in order to complete this challenge, you are going to need walkie talkies, and park passes. The park pass is the most important item. It not only works as your way to get into the parks but also as your way to obtain fast passes. Disney's FASTPASS allows guests to make 'reservations' for a popular ride to avoid waiting in long lines. As you approach the attraction that uses the FASTPASS system, you will see three lines. One is the FASTPASS distribution line (where you get your FASTPASS ticket), the second is the FASTPASS entrance (when you're returning to ride after making your FASTPASS reservation), and the third is the Standby entrance for guests not using FASTPASS. The FASTPASS distribution line features a clock showing what times the tickets are being issued for. A clock with the current time is displayed outside the FASTPASS attraction entrance. The Standby line will have the current wait time posted. Let's see how this all works. It's 11:00am and you want to go on Kali River Rapids but there's a 60 minutes wait posted outside the Standby line. You take a look at the FASTPASS distribution and see that passes are being issued with a return time of 1:00 - 2:00pm. You get your FASTPASS and instead of waiting on a one hour line, you have two free hours before coming back, bypassing the standby line and getting on Kali with little or no wait. For the attractions, the assigned time will give you a 1 hour window to return, so you don't have to run back to be there the minute it goes into effect. With the theater attractions, you'll have a FASTPASS for a specific performance. One thing to keep in mind, there are restrictions as to how many passes you can have at once. Your FASTPASS will have the time that you can get your next FASTPASS printed on it. (Usually this is when your current FASTPASS can be used or after two hours have elapsed.) Don't plan on going from one FASTPASS attraction to another gathering up slips. These machines are smart and won't issue another until your current pass allows it. Every one in your party will be expected to turn in a FASTPASS at the attraction. And please don't return before your scheduled time because you will not be allowed to enter. There's nothing like weaving through a crowd of guests who are blocking the FASTPASS entrance because they're too early. Another no-no is trying to use a FASTPASS that wasn't issued that day. Don't bother, they can't accept it. Jumping off the standby line into the FASTPASS line isn't cool. There will be a Cast Member waiting for you to turn in your non-existent pass who will send you right back to where the Standby line begins. FASTPASS is available to everyone and works with all admission media. There's no charge for using it. However, for you guys, the passes are specially rigged to allow each you to have only four fast passes for each of the four parks. Not every ride has fast passes. There are twenty one fast pass attractions in Disney World. The rides in Magic Kingdom are; Space Mountain, Splash Mountain, Big Thunder Mountain Railroad, Buzz Lightyear's Space Ranger Spin, Jungle Cruise, The Many Adventures of Winnie the Pooh, Peter Pan's Flight. The rides that have fast passes in Epcot are; Mission: SPACE, Test Track, Captain EO starring Michael Jackson, Maelstrom, Soarin'. Hollywood Studios fast pass attractions are; Rock 'n' Roller Coaster Starring Aerosmith, Toy Story Mania!, Star Tours, The Twilight Zone Tower of Terror and Animal Kingdom's are : Primeval Whirl, Kilimanjaro Safaris, DINOSAUR, Kali River Rapids, and Expedition Everest." Explained Chris.
"If you haven't noticed, we don't really care. Just give us the passes so that we can get this stupid challenge over with." Said Heather, not in the mood to hear Chris's speech on fast passes.
"Alright, alright! Yeesh!" Replied Chris, annoyed. "Time to pick Pass Holders and this time I choose!"
A series of groans were heard throughout the crowd.
"Okay, how about hmm, let's see…Justin for the Mouseketeers." Said Chris.
"Good luck anti-me." Said Noah
"And Noah for the Goof Troopers!" Said Chris.
"And to you anti-me." Said Justin to his competition.
"Pass Holders will lead their teams through the challenge by directing their teammates through the rides and shows in each park as quickly and as efficiently as possible. Each Pass Holder will have a folder for maps, times guides, fast passes, and pictures if you wish to buy them with your park passes which are credit cards as well. However, you can only use the credit cards to buy ride photos and nothing else." Said Chris as he handed a green folder to Noah and a red folder to Justin.
"How will you know if we've done all the rides, shows, etc.?" Asked Courtney.
"Good question. Each of you will also receive an autograph book and each ride and attraction that you go to, get it stamped. If you go on a ride and don't get your book stamped, it will be like you never rode the ride." Explained Chris. "Anymore questions? No. Good. Go!"
The teams rushed to the buses and boats, while Noah stayed behind to talk to Chris.
"Uh Noah, you were supposed to go with your team." Said Chris.
"Yeah, I know, but, I've got a quick question, how much time do we have between fast passes?" Asked Noah.
"Normally, you've got to wait until it's time to use your fast pass before you get another BUT for us, you've got to wait a half hour before you can get another fast pass." Said Chris.
"Um guys, where did you run off to?" Asked Noah through his walkie talkie, while he was walking to the bus station.
"Hollywood Studios." Replied Courtney. "If we don't fast pass it now, then we'll have no chance of getting on it." She explained through the walkie talkie.
"Okay, I admit that was a smart idea." Said Noah.
"Where are you?" Asked Courtney.
"I stayed behind to ask Chris a question. The information that I obtained will give us an edge over the other team." Explained Noah.
"How so?" Asked Courtney.
"How about time. Meaning, that I know that we get a different length of time between fast passes. Normally guests have to wait until it's time to use their fast pass before they can get another but for us we only have to wait a half an hour. The other team doesn't know that so they'll be waiting hours and we'll be sailing right through." Said Noah.
"Excellent. How far away are you?" Asked Courtney.
"Still waiting for a bus. You're in charge until I arrive. We can't waste any time." Replied Noah.
"Agreed, see you then." Said Courtney.
Noah went to the buses to go and wait for a Hollywood Studios bus. Noah waited about twenty minutes and finally the bus came and he boarded it. He considered taking the Epcot bus that came earlier because the parks were next to each other but he realized it would probably take him the same amount if not more time because the boat to Hollywood Studios was on the other side of Epcot.
"Hey, you're Noah from Total Drama series!" Said a girl with long brown hair, a red bandana, a red tee shirt with a black classic Mickey on it, denim shorts, black low top converse, purplish blue eyes, fair skin, and a few freckles on her nose.
"That would be correct and what's your name?" Asked Noah.
"My name's Millie. I'm 16 years old, I'm from Atlanta, Georgia and I'm the head of your fan club. "Can I have your autograph?" She asked as she took out her autograph book.
"Sure, want to take a picture as well?" He asked as he signed her book.
"Yes, oh yes!" Replied Millie, happily. "By the way, I love your sarcasm." She said as she took out her camera.
"Uh thanks." Said Noah, unsure how to reply.
She took out her camera and then Noah moved next to her and she took the picture.
"Thanks so much! Are you competing now?" Asked Millie.
"Yeah, actually, I am and I'm going to meet my team at Hollywood Studios." Replied Noah.
"Cool, can I come?" Asked Millie.
"I don't know if Chris would allow it." Replied Noah.
"Oh, I won't interfere, I promise. All I really want is to simply follow you guys around." Said Millie.
"Oh alright." Said Noah, finding no problems with her request.
"Yea!" Said Millie, very excited.
The bus finally arrived at Hollywood Studios and Noah went into the park to find his team. After walking around for about five minutes, he found Courtney and a few of his other teammates outside Pixar Place.
"So, what's the story?" Asked Noah as he approached them.
"We've got eight that want to go on Toy Story Mania." Answered Courtney.
"Too many. Three of you have to drop it." Said Noah.
"Okay, I'll drop it." Said Beth.
"So will I." Said Cody.
"We will too." Said Katie and Sadie.
"Good, wait I said three. Cody, you can go on." Said Noah.
"Yes!" Replied Cody, happy to have permission to ride one of his favorite rides.
"Geoff went to the Indiana Jones Stunt Show, and I sent Duncan to Lights Motors Action Stunt Show. Trent is doing the Studio Backlot Tour and Gwen is doing The Magic of Disney Animation." Said Courtney.
"Excellent." Said Noah. "Can I have the fast passes?" He asked.
"Here." Replied Courtney, giving him the passes.
"Good, good, good, good, what the?" Said Noah, flabbergasted at the pass he held in his hand. "Who fast passed STAR TOURS!" He asked, angrily.
"I did." Said Geoff, who had just gotten back from the Indiana Jones Stunt Show.
"May I ask why?" Asked Noah.
"Um, because I thought we could use it." Said Geoff, quickly.
"We could have used this for a different park. There was no rule as far I know about not being able to use leftover passes!" Yelled Noah.
"I didn't know, honest." Said Geoff, now afraid of the bookworm.
"Noah, go easy on him, please." Asked Bridgette, sweetly.
"Fine but this time only." Agreed Noah, now calm.
"Campers, ready to take your team picture in front of the Sorcerer's Hat?" Asked Chris.
"Um no." Replied Noah.
"Great, let's go!" Said Chris.
"Whatever Mr. Oblivious." Said Noah, sarcastically.
The team gathered within a few minutes and Chris took the picture.
"Hey Chris, we have a pass that we can't use. Can we exchange it for one that we can't use?" Asked Noah.
"No, but save it for a surprise after the challenge." Said Chris. "By the way, who's she." Asked the host, pointing to Millie.
"This is Millie, apparently she's my biggest fan and all she wanted to do was follow the team around the parks." Said Noah.
"Millie, would you like to work for me as an unpaid intern?" Asked Chris.
"Yes, yes, yes!" Replied Millie, happily.
That's the end of part one! I hope you all enjoyed. Spader13, I hope it was long enough to your liking. The next chapter will come as soon as possible. I'm going to give you a sneak peak because I have no clue when I will update next.
Coming Soon:
The Mouseketeers all headed to Animal Kingdom to start the challenge.
"Okay Justin, what's your plan?" Asked Heather.
"Split up. I want each of you to go to something different. Take care of the shows first. Before we split up, let's check the times board so that we know what to fast pass." Instructed Justin.
"Justin, wow, I'm impressed. And that's alot coming from me!" Said Heather.
"Thanks. I'm using my brain now." Replied Justin.
"Okay, who's going to take one for the team and suffer through Playhouse Disney: Live on Stage?" Asked Noah.
"I'll do it." Said Beth. "I don't mind, I find those shows cute." She said.
"You do know their for toddlers, right, Beth?" Asked Courtney.
"Yeah, but I don't care." Said Beth, as she walked towards the show.
As she walked away some of her teammates gave her strange looks, as they were weirded out by her like of toddler shows.
That was the sneak peak. Hope you enjoyed, please review!
