Mergers (6/13): Mitzy, Bobby, Marty, Colmilllo, Camila, Veronica
Nelly tapped her tea with her fingers, quietly scowling "One bag of organs is gone… but another is still here!"
She beamed excitedly before turning back to the screen "But let's not focus on that just yet. First, we can talk about our last time on total drama! In this, we were playing Pokemon with our favorite publisher Bintendo! But… Asuka had to make this partnership difficult!"
It cut back to the challenge where Asuka was yelling swear words or flipping people off in and out of the game. "So, naturally, I sent her ass packing! And at the same time, Mitch was our last contestant to reach the goal so he was also outta here! That'll show that Monica from trying to mess with my contestants like that"
She spat before turning back to her computer. When she noticed the camera was still on her she scowled "Hey! I'm getting to work, I don't need you breathing down my back during that"
The camera didn't leave her alone, but at that point, she just didn't care and started focusing back on the screen.
Nelly began pressing a few things on a computer console. On one of the screens displaying Marty's room, with multiple illuminated robot eyes almost immediately illuminating "Don't look at me all funny like that. I'm just doing my job!" she grinned before it cut out.
Intro Starts
"Dear Mom and Dad, I'm Doin' Fine," Topher and Nelly stood at the front of the island, with the nurse rapidly measuring Topher's limbs and where his organs should be.
"You guys are on my mind." The camera zoomed past the two hosts to an abandoned-looking city. In the middle of the plaza was a giant pool that the camera dove into. At the bottom, Dylan tried pulling a chest up to the surface.
"You asked me what I wanted to be And now I think the answer is plain to see," Dylan felt someone tapping her on the shoulder. She turned around, only for Ian to come out of nowhere and swim away with the chest. Bubbles floated up to the surface, where Bobby floated on a raft. Bobby looked nervous about the water.
"I wanna be famous!" Colmillo was holding Mitch in a chokehold on land as the writer desperately tried tapping out.
"I wanna live close to the sun," in one of the abandoned buildings Camila was waving her hands around mystically over a crystal ball as Marty just stared past it and at her chest. Veronica meanwhile just crossed her arms skeptically.
"Go pack your bags, 'cause I've already won," inside the crystal ball Camila saw Ellis having a casual friendly conversation with Thomas whose fingers were crossed behind his back.
"Everything to prove, nothing in my way" past the duo, Michael and Mimos were sitting on the ground in the middle of nowhere just enjoying some peace until Vinnie fell down on top of him with a beehive in her hands.
"I'll get there one day" beyond them Matt was using his walking stick to walk around when Vinnie ran past him with the bee nest in her hands while dragging Micheal behind her. Matt fell to the ground as the bees quickly swarmed him.
"Cause I wanna be famous!" back in the abandoned city Mitzy and Tess were lying on the ground, smiling to themselves as they drew a comic. Liz looked down at her work and gave her a thumbs-up before feeling Bailey hug her from behind. Making blood come from her nose. However, Maxine came in and stomped on her paper
"Na na na na na na na na" in one of the buildings Therion and Charlotte are playing a game in a room before Charlotte laughed confidently once beating the gamer. That was before another character suddenly beat both of them. They turned to see Asuka easily beat her while looking away from the screen.
"I wanna be, I wanna be, I wanna be famous" Walter was looking around the dock to the island, as he walked he could see some footsteps on the ground as he slowly followed them. As he got closer to the camera he flashed a flashlight at the camera.
"I wanna be, I wanna be, I wanna be famous" The light from the flashlight turned to the moon as it slowly moved down to the cast. Jaz and Antoinette were sitting together by the fire. Jaz saw the camera on them and quickly pushed Antoinette out of the way, trying to get the camera to focus on her before the other girl pushed her right back. The other contestants slowly whistled
Intro Ends
Now reaching morning, Marty yawned, slowly waking up in his bed before rolling over. However, unlike usual there was nothing else there. At first, he hadn't noticed but soon his eyes opened to realize his mistake.
"Maxine?" he mumbled, slowly sitting up "Where… did you go off to?"
Marty slowly stood up, seeing his door was wide open and she was missing "That's… weird. She says she likes sleeping in my room…"
He got himself dressed up pretty quickly before making his way out of the room and noticing Mitzy casually waiting nearby.
"Oh, hey, how's your morning going?" he grinned at her.
"Marty, you were just who I was looking for" her smile was very clearly a bit more nervous "So, uh, you know how you… maybe said you'd do something for me after I saved you in the last challenge?"
The photographer immediately nodded "Yea I remember. Let me guess, you want me to help you vote for Camila or something?"
"Well, yes, but that's not the thing right now" Mitzy took a deep breath "Could you maybe… join me at this one little restaurant in the Plaza?"
Naturally, this caught his attention "Ohohoho! I get what you're saying Mitzy! I'd love nothing more than that"
She sighed in relief before beckoning for him to follow along "Great, come and follow me"
Confessional: Marty
"I knew my luck was gonna turn around! Mitzy isn't, like, the hottest girl here or anything, but we've been good friends so I'm sure something romantic would go down no problem. I just hope she's prepared for an exciting time"
XXX
Soon they were at the restaurant, with Marty having wrapped his arm around hers "So any idea on what we'll be having?"
"I was told it was already prepared but I'm sure it's something good" she awkwardly moved her arm away from him "I'll see you in a bit"
"Wh-what? Aren't you my date?"
Mitzy frowned slightly "Did I say that? Well, uh, sorry but I'm not. I kind of owed someone else a favor from the Significant situation"
"So… I'm still on a date?" he asked slowly, letting his mind race around the possibilities.
"That you are" she smiled encouragingly "And she's a real keeper!"
His smile was back in full force before turning to enter the restaurant "Well, I better not keep them waiting!"
The artist smiled and waved him off "She's on the second floor at the only table so shouldn't be too hard for you to notice"
Following her instructions, he walked right up the stairs and onto the roof, which was decorated like a large greenery. At the other end of the roof, he could see Maxine sitting with a clearly nervous expression. Even her outfit was a bit different, with her wearing a green tube top and black baggy pants.
"Uh, hey Maxy" he slowly walked over before taking a seat, looking all around them and under the table "Have you seen my date or anything?"
She nervously twiddled her fingers as she looked down "Well, um, that might be… me."
Marty silently sat there for a moment, staring at her before chuckling a little "I-I see. So you just wanted to hang out a bit? Well, that's fine by me! I was just checking out this new anime that you might be interested in. It's one of those Isekai things where a woman comes to a new world and she's the Demon Queen"
"Oh, that is interesting" she grinned slightly "M-maybe Evil will watch that with you… after we finish our date here"
"Right, the date" he mused, humoring her on this "Mitzy mentioned some food was prepared for us, am I missing a buffet or something?"
Maxine smiled "The food should be coming in a moment" she grinned, looking back at the entrance of the roof before Camila suddenly exited the building. She was holding two trays in her hands and looked very annoyed.
"Here's your meal" she deadpanned before placing their plates in front of them. They now saw it was effectively just fried chicken with some grapes, not exactly high dining.
Marty immediately just smirked up at her "I would prefer if you were the one that was on the menu"
She just rolled her eyes "Not a chance, I'm just doing this to be nice to you and the midget. Enjoy your meal" After setting it down she walked away, leaving Marty to watch her walk with a smirk.
Maxine immediately cleared her throat as she got his attention back "So, what do you think of Evil's outfit? Clearly, a villainous figure such as myself must dress for success!"
"Well, it's nice" he mused, biting into his chicken "I kind of like your cloak more though. Gives mystery y'know?"
She sighed softly with a smile, leaning forward in her seat "I-I'm glad you think it looks nice on me. Evil has quite the sense of fashion"
"You got that right!" Marty encouraged.
Confessional: Maxine
"He… wasn't taking this date so romantic, or anything, but you know what? Evil still enjoyed every moment of it!" she cackled maliciously "Clearly the two of us get along perfectly, so it will just take some time before my mind controller is fully operational!"
Her laughing got even more aggressive before one of the machines Nelly had activated earlier appeared behind her with a bag in its hands.

Elsewhere, Veronica was taking the moment to hide, sneaking around in bushes. Currently, she had her eyes set out on Bobby, who was just playing around in the mud without his shirt like an actual pig.
"What is that pig up to…" she whispered to herself, glaring.
Confessional: Veronica
"I know there's something up with that slob. He was amazing at those challenges in the pre-merge but now he's acting all innocent and barely even getting anyone's attention. Plus, that Mitzy girl has been screaming like a chimp throwing its poop ever since we merged because of him. I'm not, like, the smartest girl here but I know when there's poor people smell, there's trouble! And there's no way I'm accepting trouble on my route to the finale"
XXX
After getting around in the mud for a while, he walked right to the ocean, dousing himself in sand before then going to the mess hall. Veronica continued to follow him into the back where he leaned his head back, opened his mouth wide, and started pouring cheeto puffs down on himself with disregard for where most of them would go.
He noticed one of them was sticking out of his hair, so he naturally pulled it out. There looked to be some mud and hair on it, but he just ate it anyways.
Veronica's face turned a sickly green watching this happen. She looked ready to throw up before she noticed him turning back around. As fast as she could, she jumped under a table and held her mouth.
The slob was making his way out of the room before turning to look in the direction she hid. She couldn't see his eyes so she had no idea if he was looking at her or not.
After some time he just continued to smile like a little fool before walking away with pure bliss. The moment he was gone she sighed in relief before regurgitating all over the floor. "Even if he's not evil, he is waaaaaaay too disgusting to last!"
Meanwhile, outside Bobby was cheerily making his way through the plaza, walking by his lonesome "Jeez, now Veronica's after me. That's almost…" he took a moment to count on his finger "That's almost half of the remaining contestants!"
"My sneakiness isn't as effective as I thought" he quietly mused "I'm still excited to see how this season plays out. I haven't had this much fun with friends in a while!"
He went right back to jumping in mud and other disgusting things to build up his level of grime and slime. It looked like he didn't have a care in the world… which was likely true.
From the distance, sometime later, Camila was silently holding up a hose while staring at him getting dirty "The right thing to do would be… cleaning him, I think? I remember he hates water… but then again it's probably the greater good for the rest of us"
Deciding on what she'd need to do, she stepped forward, hiding her hose behind her back as she stood before the mud. It would take a few moments for the slob to notice her but he just smiled right at her "Heyyyy Cammmila, what's up?"
Bobby slowly sat up to smile at her. He was as muddy as ever, not caring if it was getting in his mouth or nose. It was hard to say if it was a totally new smell or his usual. "Oh… not much. Can you turn around though? I have a lot of imported mud I'm sure you will love"
"Why… would I need to turn around for that?" he tilted his head.
"I'm going to be rubbing it on your back!" she assured him, a bit annoyed with his questioning "Don't want to use all the good mud just on your front"
He smiled again before turning around "Well, that makes total sense to me"
"I know it does…" Camila smiled like a true villain as she pulled her hose out. Without any warning she shot it at him, coating him in water as all his filthiness was gone in a moment "This is for your own good Bobby!"
Confessional: Bobby
The slob sat in his chair, with a bow now placed in his curly hair. He looked like a dog that would be cleaned and dressed up for a show "This game isn't fun anymore…"

After some time of the contestants just getting around, Colmillo was effectively on the hunt "Where is that damned host hiding? I'm tired of waiting for all the action around here!" she spat angrily.
"What's wrong with letting you all enjoy your time before and after challenges?" Nelly suddenly appeared behind her with a massive grin "You're all young, it's important to keep your organs underworked. Like how normal people keep baby cows weak for veal"
Colmillo turned right around, not being bothered by their host's strange ability "I don't have Therion or Asuka at this point, I'm bored out of my freaking mind! You don't even have a gym"
"Too expensive for something only you would use. No one else still in the game is the physical type anyways. You will just have to take what you get" she stated firmly, clearly not willing to back down on her point.
"Fine… then when's our next challenge huh!?"
Nelly silently stared at her yelling, before she dug her finger into her ear and picked at it "Well… if you will stop yelling I guess I could get this challenge started"
"That's what I'm talking about!" Colmillo boomed, entirely ignoring the obvious glare that her host was giving her "Just… meet with the others at the plaza's center. That is all"
The wrestler just smirked and nodded, grinning excitedly before running off. "Victory will be mine!" she declared.
"What a nuisance" the nurse grumbled, going to get the announcement for the others.
Once they were all given a heads-up about the new challenge, they made their way to the plaza, where Colmillo was already standing. As well as a massive slot machine.
"So… do we have to ask what this thing does?" Veronica gestured at the massive machine.
Camila smirked proudly "Well, I'm sure you all understand that I know its purpose, but I wouldn't want to end up spoiling what it means"
"It's a slot machine, I think we can all compromise what it is" Marty joked.
"Is it… a reference to microtransactions? That's a pretty big part of gaming culture, from what my friends say" Mitzy theorized.
Nelly simply shook her head at all of them "None of you are remotely close. This slot machine is just to decide how this challenge will go. So, anyone wants to go first?" she smirked.
Marty looked at the others, seeing they were all a bit skeptical of this challenge "You know what? Sure, I can do it!"
He stepped up to bat, walking to the front of the machine before pulling on the big machine's lever. Suddenly, its slots began to spin rapidly before it landed on the same thing, being three wide hips. "Wha-what do hips mean in gambling?"
The photographer slowly moved to look down the slot, before he heard something rumbling and bouncing on the way down. Before he knew it someone came slamming down into him. They landed on the ground before he could look up, and his face lit up into a big grin.
She was a drop-dead gorgeous black woman with wide hips and a figure that just could not be passed up. She had long black hair and was wearing a dress with a black and red pattern "Everyone, say hello to… Roxy!"
The contestants looked at her, with Marty being the only one to really seem interested in her "Ugh, of course, I'm stuck with this disgusting man, couldn't have gotten with the twink girl" she rolled her eyes angrily.
"You can call me Marty" he grinned, moving a hand from under her to try shaking her hand, but she just slapped it away and stood up
"Yea, not a chance" She walked over to the actual contestants and smirked at Mitzy "You tell me if any of the two guys are giving you any trouble and I'll handle them for you"
Mitzy raised an eyebrow at her "Um… thanks for the offer." she lowered her voice to a whisper "I have been having my suspicions on Bobby, so if you can keep an eye on him that could be quite helpful"
"Don't you worry, his balls will be gone in a matter of minutes!"
"N-now that part isn't q-quite as necessary" the artist began to worry, thinking she might have accidentally recruited a, well, in the nicest terms, violent lady.
Colmillo stepped forward once Marty went to join his date "Alright! What's the point of this Roxy lady? What does she have to do with this challenge?"
Nelly just rolled her eyes at the wrestler "I thought you said you'd stop being loud after last time, but whatever. The challenge is simple, it's a Dating Sim! You all are given a randomly selected date and you have to woo them. If your date gives you the lowest score out of everyone here is instantly eliminated"
The contestants gasped before Colmillo jumped forward and grabbed the lever "Alright, let's get something good!" she cheered before pulling it and seeing what they land on.
The slots spun a good few times before landing on a totally dead, blank expression. The contestants were confused once again before the host whistled mockingly "Looks like you got the hard mode!"
"Ha! Wouldn't want it any other way!" she rubbed her hands together, expecting some kind of monster or dangerous individual as the noise of someone dropping played. But, what dropped from the machine was totally different. They were wearing a white dress as well as green leggings and white dance shoes. Her hair was a darker green with matching red bows on both sides.
"Say hello to date number two, Kara! Our resident kuudere!"
Colmillo's excitement dropped a bit as she looked at the small girl, then back at the others "Do you guys know what a kuudere is?"
Veronica and Camila just looked at Mitzy since she was a dweeb. She blushed a bit at their assumption before looking away "It's… like when someone doesn't display much emotionally"
"Man, this challenge is going to blow" she rolled her eyes before pulling Kara under her arm like a suitcase "Just so you know, I'm taken so don't expect a serious date or anything" She just nodded as she was dragged away, not caring much either way.
Seeing as Marty and Colmillo already got the hard ones Veronica stepped forward to see what she would be getting. It spun once again before landing on three images of shades. "Oh this is going to be obnoxious" she rolled her eyes.
Out from the machine came a shorter guy with dyed green hair. He looked like what you expect a tryhard 'cool dude' would look and he didn't seem to notice that. "And Veronica's date, we have Mark"
The tryhard just laid on his side, smirking over at her "Looks like we both lucked out"
"Yea, sure" She grabbed his arm and dragged him back to the others, clearly not interested in anything he was trying to sell.
Next up was Mitzy, looking a bit nervous at what she might end up getting. With one quick roll, she got a large A symbol themed like Superman's S. While most of them were nervous by the ones they were given, this got her absolutely excited.
"That's a good sign!" she beamed before a woman came falling out. She was tall, muscular, and looked like someone you wouldn't try going into a fight with. At the same time, she looked like a geek, wearing a Superman-themed shirt. The rest of her outfit looked… rather boring, such as long black pants and running shoes.
"Hello!" she shot right up to her feet with an excited smile "I'm Arin and I'm excited to be here to fight against the island's evil! The Pink Panda may even arrive for this as well!"
Mitzy's face lit up in a big smile "She's perfect!"
"Now there's two of them" Colmillo deadpanned annoyedly.
Confessional: Mitzy
The artist had a big smile on her face "No offense to anyone else who's come in for this challenge, but I really did luck out. Even if she's not that into comics that intro about fighting villainy is all I could need to hear from her to know this challenge will be a piece of cake"
XXX
"This just leaves two dates left" Nelly smirked at Camila and Bobby. Neither of them seemed interested in taking a roll "And I'm getting tired of waiting!"
Camila just smirked condescendingly "Sorry, but I'm not interested in these dating shows. I think I'll enjoy just skipping this one"
The host slowly nodded her head before pointing at the machine "Either one of you pulls the lever or else I'm eliminating the both of you here on the spot!"
They glanced at each other before the psychic just groaned in defeat and walked forward, pulling her lever to get it over with and getting a feminine figure in the 'paint me like one of your French girls' pose.
Camila stared at it before looking back at Nelly with a scowl "What the hell does that mean?"
She just smiled and shrugged, before hearing the usual fumbling noise before, but instead of shooting something out the person just got stuck in the exit. All they could see was that she was a big woman and she was wearing leggings and a skirt.
Nelly and the psychic frowned down at her before their host forced a smile. The remaining interns came in and slowly pried her from the machine "And… this is Rhonda, she loves girls like you Camila"
"As long as she doesn't get handsy" she shuddered.
"Not a chance I want anything you'd be giving me anyways t and a" the large wrestler glared right at her like she was about to turn her into a pretzel.
"Love is in the air" their host sighed softly before looking over at Bobby, who hadn't moved an inch. "You're last, so you have our leftover"
The slob just grinned "I already feel bad for them"
"Don't worry, they aren't going to mind" Nelly walked up to him before suddenly handing him a leash. He tilted his head slightly to question what she was doing before she suddenly attached the leash to a small creature wearing a collar. Looking down he could see it was a pigeon.
Bobby just appeared more confused/
"I'll explain" she was still snickering at his 'date' "Not a single human being would want to be with you on a date with how much you stink all the time. So we decided to just make it easier on everyone if we just gave you a filthy sky rat"
"Do you have to call the bird his date?" Marty deadpanned.
Her smirk only grew "It's way funnier giving him a date like this, so I hope you all like your date and are ready for our first of two challenges!"
Confessional: Bobby
The slob had a small smile on his face as he pet his little bird "I'm used to people not liking my company, so I expected this challenge to not go so well. But at least no one has to be forced to partner with me and plug their nose the whole time" the bird was silently flying up into his hair before pecking at the little bits of food left in there.
Confessional: Veronica
"Well, at least this challenge will be easy. I'm kind of gorgeous, or totally gorgeous. Yea, the second is way more fitting! But anyways, that shortie's a clear perv, so messing with that mind of his and getting a 10/10 or however this is being measured will be a nice little relaxing challenge. Obviously, Liz, this challenge means nothing. Not like I'd give that dweeb anything anyways"
Confessional: Marty
The photographer had the biggest smile possible "That little hang-out with Maxine earlier was nice and all, but dang is this going to be even more fun! Roxy practically blows all the others on this island out of the water she's so hot. I just gotta work up the old Marty charm" he grinned.
Confessional: Colmillo
Instead of talking about her date, the wrestler was just lifting her partner in her arm like a weight "Well, she at least has some use for me even if she's a little dweeb. And, may I remind you, not my little dweeb"

For the first of their three challenges, they were brought to a sort of mini-obstacle course. Each of the contestants was all of them were standing in a massive set of arenas slightly floating about the ground. All of them had holes or other small obstacles in the way. To their side, they could see different colored spheres, matching each of their primary colors.
"So what's this challenge?" Veronica deadpanned "I can guess what this is but I'm sure there's a stupid twist"
"No real twist to this, we had that whole Monkey Ball set for the tiebreaker so we decided to bring it back for a full challenge! You and your date will be put into one capsule and you will try moving through three sets. Getting first place you'll get a six, second is a five, and so on"
"How does this relate to dating?" Marty joked.
Nelly was trying to think of an argument, before shrugging "I don't know. We have a final score for each couple at the end of the day so we needed another challenge. So cooperating inside of a massive ball sounds good enough to me!"
Colmillo smirked "So we're after a higher score, you're on for that!" she declared, grabbing her emotionless sidekick and throwing her in the capsule with her.
Nelly just looked back at the others with an expectant expression. "Are you sure we can't step back?" Camila asked carefully "I don't want to have her fatty sweat fill up my ball, same for the stench"
Rhonda scowled down at her "You'll be lucky if I carry you in this challenge, you little gypsy!"
"And I'm positive this creep next to me is going to make things difficult" Roxy scowled at Marty, who was just grinning back at her.
Veronica smirked slightly and leaned closer to the girl boss "I know exactly what you mean. That pervert is constantly checking me out." she started to whisper "He's an absolute creep"
This lit up a fire inside of her before a launcher suddenly pushed each of the duos into their balls. "And… you may all begin!" their hostess declared.
Suddenly the contestants shot forward as fast as they could. The speed was very dependent on which contestant was in which ball, with the ones falling in the very back already being Rhonda and Camila. The psychic was trying to drag the ball forward but her big wrestler just stood there and kept them in place.
"Why aren't you helping? This is a challenge for both of us to take part in!" she looked back angrily.
"Oh, is it?" Rhonda asked dryly "Because I remember it being your challenge to lose and not being my problem. Your type is always so expectant of everything to go your way"
Camila turned around and scowled "Is your problem with me about my ethnicity? You've mentioned me being a gypsy and 'your kind' after just knowing you for a few moments"
The wrestler scoffed "Nothing to do with that. I could care less whatever you identify as, in fact, it's your personality more than anything. And I refuse to even specify what it is to you!"
This just infuriated her partner even further "Ok. How about I give you something nice if you help me then? I… am a woman of mystics, if you give us a top-two score here I'll do a small fortune telling on anything you want"
"I don't believe that mumbo jumbo… but could you theoretically show me what hot stud I would be winning before too long?" she smirked and licked her lips, already imagining the mountain of muscle that would be all over her.
Camila just smirked at her argument "Well then, I am sure I could give you a prediction such as that…" she looked down at her nails, feigning disinterest "I've done harder predictions in the past after all"
Rhonda caught it hook-line and sinker. Feeling a new wave of energy she lowered her shoulders and started sprinting as fast as she could to the finish line, resulting in Camila being rolled in the ball and flung about in her quick motion.
Despite her large size, that lady knew how to run and put her all into it. "I already regret this" Camila groaned weakly.
Confessional: Camila
"Getting her to like me is going to be difficult… I could make her like me by lying, but if I remember right society considers that a 'negative' for some reason. But then again, she'll be more pissed off at me if I tell her that no one would want to get with her whale-like proportions" she slowly got into a thinker pose.
XXX
They shot right past the second less cooperative team. Marty was trying to push, and while he was making some progress Roxy just dragged her feet.
"Hey, um, I wouldn't want to force you to help me but could you at least help push in the same direction?"
"Oh, and go the way a man told me to go? Not a chance! Everyone knows you men are bad with directions"
Marty frowned a little "Then… maybe you can lead and I follow that?"
Roxy's eye twitched "And so you can just leave the whole challenge to me!? Absolutely lazy"
He was slowly becoming lost with how he was supposed to reason with his date. "Then… how about you just try to relax while I do this then? It is my challenge after all"
"Oh did you just tell me to relax!? You men always tell women to "relax" or "stop being so bossy" whenever we're the ones in charge!"
The photographer flinched, backing away from her "I-I didn't mean anything like that, honest! I have nothing against women in the workplace"
"I'm sure you don't!" Roxy growled before pushing him aside and began to roll for the two of them.
Marty just frowned as he got up and lightly jogged after her since she wasn't going all that fast.
Confessional: Marty
"I'm starting to get a bit less worried about getting in her pants and more worried that I'll be going home." He deadpanned.

The first segment of the obstacle course was a constantly shifting bit of land. They were on solid land, while ahead of them the first finish line was shifting up and down, and the land in front of the line was a hole with a little ramp.
"Well… now I'm wishing this was in VR" Veronica looked down nervously. In its current phase of moving around, it was practically a straight drop downwards. Sure, some of the teams were making their way but she had no intention of that. What if the beautiful blond were to get her face injured by doing that!?
"We should probably still go, right?" Mark was looking forward to see the angle going down, which was almost enough to send them careening forward.
"Are you crazy!? This isn't a VR challenge! We could totally die!" She screamed at him before pulling him back and away from the edge.
The Cool dude didn't mind one bit, as he was practically right into her chest. "Not to worry!" He raised a confident finger "I will happily work as a human shield if need be"
"No offense but that hardly makes me feel any better" she was still nervously hugging him when one of the few team's still up there moved forward.
"You're both taking too long!" Colmillo declared before ramming into them from behind.
This sent the beauty and nerd rocketing forward and down the steep decline before shooting past the line. They were still holding each other before they suddenly bounced off a set of large cushions and threw them at the next obstacle course.
"Oh… that really wasn't so bad" Veronica smiled a bit before realizing who she was hugging. Naturally, she pushed him away almost immediately "Now back to the challenge!"
"You got it" Mark gave a little salute in his boob daze. He took a slow step forward before suddenly the ground under the two of them vanished.
"Oh come on!" The rich girl whined before falling straight under the obstacle course and into the darkness. Soon a loud thud came echoing as the hole that appeared under them closed instantly.
In this second course, Bobby was taking the immediate lead. His little pigeon was just perched in his hair like a nest, clearly getting comfortable.
"Don't worry Mr. Mcchicken, you'll be safe with me" the slob reached up to pat the top of its head as they moved, bouncing above and over the multiple holes in the trap by just taking intense speeds.
At the same time, Mitzy and Arin were running in second place. They were practically running in tune with each other, though most of the speed was coming from the 'date'.
"It's really nice to have someone make theories on my comics" the duo were in mid-conversation "Which of my heroes was your favorite?"
"Oh, absolutely Tarrin the Terrific! Having a hero with pizzazz and all that dazzle makes him so entertaining to watch. But Wild Cat was my favorite. A hero fangirl wanting to be a hero herself and making it happen. That was totally my inspiration!"
Mitzy was beginning to seriously blush from her partner's praise "M-my comics aren't that amazing or anything like that"
"Nonsense!" Arin immediately assured her "I think they even beat the official comics. I'd totally buy merchandise of your heroines"
"That's definitely a first to hear…"
The hero fan just beamed at her flusterdness "I honestly came on this show just hoping for the chance to be here with you, totally lucked out being with the Wakeman. Hey, when this challenge is over I was thinking-"
Before she could finish Mitzy pointed ahead "Hole!"
Arin's eyes shot forward to see the same hole Mitzy had noticed "I got this!" she assured, suddenly pulling her 'date' up into her arms. Before the big hole, she came to a slow-down before stomping her feet into the ball's bottom, causing them to bounce over the ball and continue rolling ahead.
"That was impressive!" Mitzy's eyes were widened in pure astonishment at Arin's heroic-like strength.
"Hardly a problem for me to handle" she assured before a second hole suddenly appeared right in front of them. As they fell into the ground below all they could see was Rhonda and Camila passing them up as Bobby continued his lead to first place "Oh no!" she cried during the sudden fall.
Arin continued to hold the artist, basically acting as a shield before they reached the ground in a hard thud. The two of them looked around the dark rooms they had entered, finding themselves in the middle of an illuminated straight line to a steep incline.
Already climbing their way up they could see Mark and Veronica were putting all their effort into trying to push to the top "Come on, work your legs harder!" the rich girl reprimanded her partner.
"I-I'm pushing as hard as I can…" he whimpered miserably, with both his arms and legs shaking like jelly.
"Well, that will assuredly be more of a challenge" Arin rubbed her chin "But I'm sure with enough heroic motivation we can zoom right through!"
"I like your spirit" the artist smirked before they both started to run after Veronica and her date.
Back on the surface, Nelly was waiting at the end when Bobby bounced off an opening and rolled right next to her. Before making an immediate stop "And, for six points we have Bobby. Congratulations, you and your date have perfect chemistry"
The slob walked out of his ball, still smiling wide as the bird was sleeping "Looks like I'm safe tonight"
"Don't get too confident too soon, it's a small chance but if everyone gets a ten in the second round you'll be toast either way"
"Hm" he nods a little "Shouldn't be so bad"
As he was walking away Camila and Rhonda came crashing in right after, with Colmillo and Kara landing next. Camila slowly dragged herself out of the monkey ball, groaning weakly "Absolutely… awful. I… hate this game" her entire body was shaking miserably.
"Well, if it helps your chance of going further is up. Five points!"
Colmillo slammed her ball open, quite literally cracking the ball in half "Third, I can't believe it!" she looked back at her partner "How come you weren't running fast enough? If you were putting in the work we could've gotten first easy!"
"Because you were carrying me like a duffle bag" she deadpanned, dusting herself off.
"Well that's hardly an excuse for your little baby frame" the Luchadora started to grab at her little baby arms, causing a faint red tint to appear on Kara's face.
Nelly silently stared at the duo before clearing her throat "You're third. Still not bad"
"But not first place!" Colmillo snapped back, dragging her partner along "We'll just win that next challenge"
"You know the point of this challenge is romancing your partner, right?" she called after them as they left "Eh, whatever. Colmillo going earlier is fine by me"
After a few moments, the remaining three teams started to trickle their way in. First up was Arin and Mitzy, with the artist laying exhausted in her arms "Fourth for the dorky duo"
Coming in fifth were Veronica and Mark, who were practically passed out on top of each other from how much running they were doing.
"And so our sixth place and 1 point goes to… " Nelly glanced aside, as Roxy and Marty slowly rolled in. Marty appeared just fine, but his partner was sweating and collapsed onto the ground "Our misfit couple. Well, that's certainly going to stink for you two"
"You're telling me" the photographer was holding his nose as her workout smell was beginning to fill the ball.
Nelly simply opened the ball for him by giving it a quick knock "All of you can shower and dress up nice. We've got our most dangerous challenge coming up, and I would be dressed for the occasion if I were you"
Eventually, the final six came around for their big second challenge she's been building up. "This challenge better not take too long" Colmillo growled, pulling on her tuxedo suit. Though, she was still wearing her normal mask, just black this time.
"Luckily for me, I'm already dressed for the kind of occasion I'm going to" Camila smirked confidently, quite literally wearing the same thing as usual.
"I just wish I could have ignored this challenge and not immediately be sent home" Veronica spoke annoyedly. Her outfit was a big poofy prom dress, obviously showing off some chest "But. I know what pervs like him like, so this will make things way easier to mess with"
Mitzy just frowned at the two girls "I think we should just enjoy that we are having an easier challenge for once." her outfit was just a slightly nicer-looking version of her usual attire, such as her wearing more of a skirt than pants.
"You're just in a good mood because you and your date are already on the way to swapping spit already" Marty teased her. His outfit was simply the same thing, not really dressed for any success "Meanwhile, I think mine hates my guts. But that's just a guess"
"She seemed a bit upset with you" Bobby nodded a bit. He was also wearing the exact same thing as before, but he now had a snappy red vest over his now mostly-clean attire. Though his vest looked like it was just found in the trash "Dunno why, she sure was though! I've seen an upset lady before, and they weren't that bad"
After some walking, they reached the destination of their second challenge. It was a massive building with a wide-open dance floor. The ceiling even had a disco ball and the side area had Nelly dressed up as a DJ. All of their dates were standing by on the dance floor, just ready for them.
"W-w-w-w-welcome!" Nelly dj'd her voice as she started playing simple dancing music "Ta-ta-today in our second challenge we're doing some dancing. Everyone knows about one of dating's biggest cliche, the big dance. So you're all going to be dancing with your partners and trying to not embarrass yourselves. Same system as the last one where we're after a score!"
"Another boring one" Colmilo rolled her eyes as each of them pulled their partner close.
Bobby awkwardly looked around, before noticing the little pink dress on his bird "How am I supposed-"
"Not my problem coolie doolie." She suddenly started to play the music as the floor started shifting colors.
Almost immediately the groups got to dancing as best they could, with Bobby just spinning on the ground because he saw hip-hoppers do that once.
It took hardly a moment before a big X appeared over him "aaand you're out!"
"Stop stepping on my feet!" Veronica snapped. While she was a total professional, Mark was fumbling over himself as he tried to keep up.
"I-I'm trying here! I've never danced with someone before" he meekly admitted, pulling himself back up to an erect position before trying to keep up again.
With Veronica taking the lead they were easily capable of beating out the others. In fact, a mischievous expression formed on her face as she walked closer to Mitzy and Arin.
"Amazing dancing Miss Wakeman. I must admit it's s skill I'm sorely lacking in"
"You're doing just fine" the artist encouraged with a smile "Dancing was never my thing either"
"Well, you're still quite good at it!" She chose to continue her praise either way, flushing Mitzy red from the endless compliments.
Their little parade ended pretty fast with Veronica's dress getting stuck under their feet. When Arin tried to dip her they fell flat on the floor "And out! Our geeks aren't doing as hot as you would think folks!"
"My bad" Arin whispered dejectedly.
At the same time, Rhonda was leading Camila along effortlessly. Going for a more fast-paced intense dancing more than anything else as the psychic just followed along.
"Could you not go any slower?" She deadpanned.
"Oh, I'm sorry" Rhonda rolled her eyes "I thought you wanted to win this challenge."
"I do, but not with your smelly lumps in my face," she tried to pull away but was just pulled back into the folds.
Camila glared up at her "If you ruin my dress with your insistent dancing you're losing that prediction"
The wrestler just glared back down, far more intimidatingly "And if you screw me on this prediction you're losing your fingers"
"Y-you paint a v-vivid imagine, miss Rhonda" she smiled weakly, just letting herself be used to dance around.
Standing nearby was Roxy and Marty. The photographer had a big grin on his face and was clearly keeping it more romantic, but his date looked very unamused. "You're quite amazing on your feet" he complimented her.
"Is that supposed to make me feel excited? That a man chose to praise my abilities like they were for him? I am an amazing dancer because women can do anything they put their minds to!"
"Please… Roxy, I'm not trying to be rude about this. C-can I not praise a lady for being so much more impressive and confident than me?" he tried to calm her down.
She just glared at him in absolute silence. With the two of them anyone could hear a pin drop "Aaaaand it looks like we need just one more contestant to drop before things get sa-sa-serious!"
His date just smirked before letting him go, effectively pushing him onto his butt "Yea, no way I'm wasting my precious effort on something so stupid"
"This sucks" he groaned, choosing to just lie on the ground.
The remaining three teams: being led by Camila, Veronica, and Colmillo were suddenly raised into the air on a handful of platforms. Each segment of the new platforms looked like it could fall at any moment.
"Now's when we get serious!" the Luchador smirked down at her little partner. They were doing a salsa-like dance. Kara didn't seem to care either way as she kept up her dead stare, which was starting to get annoyed by this "You know you could be smiling more"
"Not much for me to smile about now" she just shrugged before Colmillo suddenly started to spin her.
"Well, you'll have plenty to smile about once you're wowed!" Colmillo declared loud and proud, moving her around slowly to avoid any of the random section collapses.
All the while Kara had the expression a woman would have during a two-hour-long lecture.
Veronica looked at the remaining contents with a snicker. Slowly but surely she made her way to the mess that was Rhonda and Camila.
"Ready for our big play?" She grinned at her geeky partner.
"Our big play?" he just looked confused before she suddenly grabbed his arm and spun him at the two larger women.
He moved like a spinning top, not slowing down at all before she suddenly slammed into them like a rocket and shot them right off. Before he could even go out of control he was grabbed back up by Veronica.
"A-and down goes our rivals to lovers" Nelly grinned, before pressing a few buttons on her big machine to set only one platform in the air.
The two teams danced their way to the middle before Colmillo and Veronica moved closer to each other, pushing their smaller partners between themselves as they glared into each other's eyes.
"You and your partner make quite the cute pair" Veronica taunted her.
"Wish I could say the same for your two" the wrestler snapped back "You two just look like a pair of losers who would get excited about prom"
The rich girl just smirked at her "You just aren't excited for them because no one would ever ask you to one. Especially when you have such an obvious type" she gestured down at Kara who was just staring blankly.
"She's not anything like Therion cow tits!" she snapped at her before just throwing herself at Veronica and onto the ground with her easily dominating her.
"Get off of me you dirty wrestler!" she whined angrily, just trying to slap her away to little success.
Mark leaned over the edge, just grinning to himself to watch the two of them fighting "This… I could get used to"
Kara silently rolled her eyes at him.
Confessional: Veronica
She was rubbing her cheek, which had gotten bruised "That wasn't fun… she better not have made my face bruised or she'll hear from Daddy on this!"
The rich girl took a slow deep breath before forcing a confident grin "But, what's important is Nelly gave me the win for this challenge. And so a shot to the final five no problem!"

After the confessional moment, a large board revealed their scores before the third round. So far Camila and Colmillo were both tied for first place, with 9 points each. Then came Veronica at 8 and Bobby with 7 points… then at the very back of the group was Mitzy with 5 and Marty with 4. Clearly, they had to make a turnaround.
For the final challenge, they reached a restaurant in the middle of the plaza, it looked very romantic and especially nice looking. On the second floor there was a patio with all their dates sitting out.
"This one you're going down" the wrestler looked down at Veronica before going to her date.
She just rolled her eyes right back at her "Yea, like you have any chance of doing well on a date"
The others, meanwhile, were far more focused on just getting to their date and getting this challenge started. As they waited for the challenge to start, Nelly slowly floated up until she was standing before the contestants in a ballroom dress.
Nelly had a fan that she used to cover her mouth before she slowly stepped onto the balcony "Well well. Don't you all look ready for a wonderful evening? I'm sure you're all desperately confused about this challenge"
Her contestants just stared at her, showing quite clearly they understood this challenge. "So! This challenge is a normal date for each one of you. You will have two questions before a little break to think up a potential new game plan. Then, you will have two more conversation topics handed to you to keep things spicy. In the end, your date will be rated out of ten. Simple, yes?"
Before she could go back into the building itself, a red circle at the middle of each table suddenly illuminated a light blue color. Colmillo was the first to touch the button, using her cat-like reflexes before a question appeared above them.
"What is your favorite sport?" the wrestler read it slowly "Psh, obviously my favorite is wrestling! Who doesn't love that stuff?"
"Me" Kara stated matter of factly "no sports really interest me. They all seem rather… dull"
Colmillo's eye began to twist before she sat up in her seat "Dull!?" she practically screamed in her face, getting up close to her "If you want something dull just look yourself in the mirror!"
Her date raised her eye skeptically "Did you get that one from a playground?"
"Did you get your face from a playground!?" she snapped back. Kara lowered her face to slap herself on the forehead. Like she was mortified to be on a fake date with her.
At the table next to them, Veronica was laughing obnoxiously loud "You're doing amazing Colmillo. I don't know how anyone could be more charmed than that~"
The wrestler silently glared at her, grabbing the table hard enough to put a big dent into it. This got V nervous enough to lean away to focus back on her date.
Their question was simply what they would look for in a date. "Well," Mark started "I'd like a woman with plenty of attitude. Or is just drop-dead gorgeous. Either of those is fine!"
"Oh I'm sure you have an interest in that" she forced herself from rolling her eyes. A new little plan brewing in her head "This dweeb will give me a top score even just from me playing along with his delusional little fantasies"
Veronica cleared her throat after preparing her plan "Oh, I do so love geeky boys who know all about…" she had to try remembering something lame "Star Trek. So… hot"
Mark smirked a bit as he leaned forward in his seat "Well, lucky for you I speak Klingon" he declared without an ounce of shame.
"You… don't say" she forced a weak smile.
"And you think my date's a joke!" Colmillo screamed at Veronica, resulting in the both of them to glare at each other and ignore their date.
Confessional: Colmillo
"I know how she started with Camila. If she thinks we're gonna argue and then she's gonna come onto me or something she better hope her 'daddy' has some insurance!" she growled.

After that, a second question appeared for them, this time a blue color. Marty looked simply tired of everything while Roxy had her arms crossed and looked ready to blow. That's when the question appeared over them.
"What are your opinions on abortion laws?"
Marty stared at it for a moment, really just trying to comprehend what this question was asking them. "Nothing gets people closer on a date than controversial questions!" Nelly declared as she watched in anticipation.
He slowly looked back at his date glaring daggers at him "Why don't you answer the question first?"
Marty's face slowly deflated like a balloon until he was just miserably frowning at the ground "Talking politics isn't quite how I think dates should go…"
"Because you don't want women talking about politics? Is that a man's game for you?" she just seemed more infuriated.
Slowly but surely the photographer leaned back in his seat until he was halfway under the table "Well, in that case. personally…"
The scene shifted over to Mitzy and Arin, who were really still just having a good time together when Marty was running away with Roxy latched onto his back repeatedly punching him in the head.
"Wonder what happened with them" the heroine frowned before they continued their meal. On the question machine, it slowly displayed their question.
"Which is better: DC or Marvel?"
The duo sat there, thinking with amused little smiles "Well, personally" Mitzy started "I think DC has more interesting movies and shows. I also like their villains a little more. They do a good job showing not every villain is what Maxine wants to be" she joked.
"Well, yes, that is true. But Marvel has a much better history with movies. Their heroes could even be considered heroic" Arin smiled nonchalantly, with the two of them staring at each other.
They started to laugh a bit awkwardly "Well" Arin continued "Marvel has pretty good diversity. Black Panther was so diverse no one cared about how lame it was! And when their first gay hero was revealed? I remember the first gay kiss in a Marvel movie where Doctor Strange asked "...He's right behind me, isn't he?" before he was kissed by Starlord"
"Diversity is just fine but DC at least did different things for each of their movies. Marvel does the same basic story and jokes for each one" they were both frowning a bit more at each other.
Before their argument could go any further, a bell suddenly went off "Daters! You have five minutes before having to go back to your date"
Mitzy looked over at the host before smiling awkwardly "Well, there doesn't have to be a winner or anything like that. Both are perfectly fine brands"
Arin smiled back at her "Yea, right. Nothing wrong with a little disagreeing"
"Ohhhh, those two are stuck in the awkward zone" Camila taunted on her way to the restaurant's inside.
Following right behind her Bobby just brought his date along, feeding her seeds as they walked.
Confessional: Mitzy
"I don't think the preference in comics should hinder the final score… too bad. But what I'm really worried about is Marty. He's easily gotten the worst pairing in this challenge and he's going to lose unless I do something for him. Roxy seems like she supports… girl bosses, maybe I could convince her to give him a good final score?"
Confessional: Camila
"This date is going rather easily. In truth, this has been the easiest challenge yet. Everyone's sabotaging themselves with their dates, yet I'm keeping my date enticed. I haven't even pulled the crystal ball out yet and she is entirely enthralled in my wondrous predictions. Such as my clairvoyance predicting that one creepy man-child was a furry. It's hard to have an even more practical talent than mine"
XXX
"You all now have a few minutes before you get back to your date" Nelly informed them as she shooed Bobby's bird away "So, to keep things fair, you can talk and do anything you want so long as you do not interact with your own personal date. Understood?"
They all simply nodded their heads before Camila and Veronica went to be distracted by their phones or manicures. Even if Colmillo was starring daggers at the two of them. Bobby, meanwhile, just sat contently.
"Hey, Marty" the artist leaned closer to whisper into her old buddy's ear "do you mind if I go and talk to your date?"
He just stared blankly at her "I don't think we can trade pairs but if you want to have at it"
"Well, I'm trying to help your date be more reasonable. We're old buds, nothing wrong with me trying to make her see how great of a guy you are"
This… didn't seem to be the answer he was hoping for "Don't lay it on too thick. I don't want her to take an interest and start making stabbing me a regular activity"
"Don't worry, I'll just ask that she goes easy" she nodded before jogging off to the patio, where their dates were all seated in separate areas. She avoided looking at her date, avoiding a rule break before reaching Roxy, who was doing her lipstick.
"Um, hey R. I was-"
The girl boss jumped to her feet and put a finger to her lip "Say no more. I knew that Marty was going to harass you. Want me to shove this mug up his ass?" she raised it up to Mitzy's face.
"T-that's not necessary Roxy. I'm just here to talk about my friend Marty. See… I'm worried about him going home with this challenge. You two don't look like you're hitting it off"
She simply scoffed "That's an understatement. I haven't met a more overconfident annoying man in my life. He is insufferable!"
Mitzy wasn't sure how to respond to her declaration "Well… c-can I ask for you to do that as a little deal between gals? I, um… really need help with him on eliminating this other guy named Bob-"
"Say no more!" she grabbed her lips to shut her up "I understand your relationship with him. You gaslight the photographer and he votes for who you want. Genius!" the black woman cackled snarkily.
"Well, not exactly that-"
"I said say no more!" Roxy stared her down, shutting her up almost immediately "Now you go back to the others. I'll give him a good score to help you dominate this game, just make sure he doesn't end up humiliating you in the finale or anything"
The artist slowly nodded her head "Yes ma'am" she whispered and went back into the building.
Soon they were brought back to their dates, with the cameras focusing in on Camila sitting down with her date. She now had the glass ball placed on the table, over the question machine "I doubt Miss Nelly will mind us doing something a little bit different. It's a date after all, can't be too rigid" she smirked.
Rhonda just rolled her eyes "Let's get to the point already. I stated on my first question that my ideal man is a muscular drop-dead gorgeous man who can make my knees shake, and I expect excellent results!"
"Patience Rhonda, patience. My predictions can take some time" she reached around and grabbed both of her hands "Now then, look into the crystal ball"
The wrestler silently rolled her eyes, leaning forward and glancing into it. The ball had a faint glow to it before an image appeared. Inside, they found an image of a gorgeous muscular man showing off his water-soaked chest to a group of women.
"Is that him?" Rhonda couldn't help but grin and begin to lick her lips "Because I'm liking what I'm seeing"
Camila quietly shushed her 'date' "There's more, you must be patient"
She crossed her arms, waiting impatiently when more visuals appeared on the dome. It shifted a bit away from the water to show Rhonda in her bathing suit as she was splashed at by a very feminine woman.
"So what's this mean?" she went right back to her infuriation seeing it focus on someone besides the hot dude.
"Ha-aha, oh I'm sure it means nothing at all" Camila pulled the ball away to look at it more privately, though the image was hardly changing at all.
Confessional: Camila
"Call this a wild guess, but I don't think she's going to be all amused if I tell her all signs point to her being with the feminine gal"
XXX
Back at the dates, Arin and Mitzy were mostly sitting in silence. It wasn't necessarily because it was awkward, but because the artist was far too focused on Marty's date. Which was indeed doing better. Or at least, Roxy was doing her best to not try castrating her overly masculine date.
"Mitzy, are you ok? I-I wasn't meaning to upset you with that conversation. I like plenty about both companies" Arin tried to put their date back on track.
"Oh, sorry Arin" she blushed a little at what she realized she was doing "But yea, I like both as well. I-I don't think there's ever a reason to get pissy at each other over a brand or anything"
The hero wannabe firmly nodded her head "Especially when my favorite comic world is yours anyways!"
Her simpable target awkwardly started to blush again "F-feels a lot different to people telling that to me online" she admitted bashfully.
"No need to be embarrassed over something that's totally true!"
"Can everyone keep their dates down!?" they heard Bobby yell. Most of the couples turned their heads over to the groomed slob to see his 'date' Mr. McChicken was now Sir McChicken as he was dressed in a snappy black suit.
Once they were all quieter he grinned and leaned forward in his chair "So do go on. Tell me about the whole… migration thing"
From there they were given a few more questions in a montage, including a question like who they hated most, with Rhonda practically staring daggers at the woman that was in Camila's crystal ball. Or Marty having to give his personal opinion on if Hillary Clinton deserved to win in 2016.
"Alright contestants!" Nelly clapped her hands together "That should be enough dating for one day" all of the tables in the room shifted and changed so it had all of the Final 6 in one row across from their dates
"Now then, for our final challenge's scores…" she first walked up behind McChiken, who was playing around with seeds "Now, of course, if they give no score we'll immediately count it as a one" she reminded before looking down at the chicken "Anything to add?"
They silently watched the bird before it suddenly shifted its seeds into a ten "I… see. So that means Bobby has a score of 17, gonna be hard to beat!"
She walked next to Roxy, who had her arms crossed and one leg wrapped over the other "Miss feminist, what would you like to give your male partner as his score?"
It looked as though every bone in her body was shifting and creaking in the wrong way as she sat up and smiled "I would…. Give him… a ten a-as well"
Nelly silently looked down at her before sighing "Yea, I'm sure you do. 14 points then"
Marty's eyes lit up, grinning from ear to ear at having an actual chance of staying in the game before he shot over to try hugging Roxy. But this just resulted in a second mauling from the local girlboss.
"I also give my date a ten!" Mark shouted, flailing his arm around to get the host's attention.
"Yea, I'm sure you do!" Nelly snapped at him "I can tell everyone absolutely loved their dates." her hair slowly shifted until her little hair devil-horns continued to grow before she slicked her hair back "Veronica takes back the lead, receiving 18 overall points"
Mark grinned from ear to ear, not minding her rage all too much. Especially when Veronica blew him a little kiss.
Their host looked ahead, finding a still mostly bored Kara staring at an expectant "So, Kara, how was your date?"
She slowly looked up at the host before looking back at Colmillo "I've never been on a date before… but I had no fun whatsoever. The entire date she was glaring at her competition and all she really did was call me a nerd. I can't imagine anyone would have fun with that"
"Well that sounds like a you problem!" La Luchadora smirked "My actual boyfriend loves my dangerous and violent tendencies!"
"Uhu. When he was stuck on the island with just you yea. But I know first handedly when people have options for people with actual skills in communication, they're going to choose the one who can hold a conversation and not the one that is failing to even focus on the conversation"
"Oh you shut up! You should be lucky I didn't throw you through a table like I did with him if you're gonna act like that!" she was practically foaming like a wild animal
"Two points" she stated firmly "I would have preferred being home"
Nelly couldn't help but laugh "That one's gotta sting! Leaving our big brute at 11 points, not bad, but far behind the others"
Coming up right after her was Arin, who was still smiling excitedly, though she wasn't in her chair and was instead standing in front of Mitzy.
"Let's just get yours over with miss hero" their host rolled her eyes, already knowing where this was going.
"Well, um, obviously I give Mitzy a 10/10 no doubt about that! But, um, I was just wanting to say I don't really get out much for things like this so I'm really glad I got to partner with her for it and everything yea. It's nice meeting a hero you can respect"
The artist silently blushed before her date suddenly leaned forward to kiss her right on the lips. Mitzy's eyes shot open almost immediately as she flailed around in pure shock before Arin eventually pulled back and took her seat with a big grin.
Mitzy, meanwhile, was just sitting there with her mouth wide open.
"Rhonda, anything to add or mix things up before Colmillo is the one sent home?" Nelly smirked while looking over her shoulder.
Said woman looked over at Camila, who was starting to sweat. It was quite clear what the big wrestler wanted. "Oh fine Rhonda, you twisted my arm! From the future… which is 100% right all the time, I saw you were going to end up with this rather attractive young lady. And she seemed to be quite charming"
"And… not the hunk?"
"Uh, well, not technically a hunk but I'm sure some would call her a female hunk!" she tried to assure her.
Rhonda just stared her down "You were promising all day that I was going to be getting some hunk and then at the end you suddenly pull it out from under me?"
"I just chose not to lie" Camila raised her chin "If anything, you should consider giving me extra points for being so truthful in the end"
She just ignored her 'date' and pointed at the host "Give her one point, nothing more"
The psychic silently frowned before looking down, knowing exactly where this was heading "And you're right to be down Camila. With our total scores, you only have 10, meaning you're our big loser today. Sorry to have you go!"
Nelly pressed a button on her controller and caused a Mario pipe to appear under her to take her away.
"I won't miss any of you" she called before fully disappearing.
With her gone, Nelly grabbed their dates and dragged them along "Come on come on. If you're not off this island by the end of the night you're free game with the rest of the contestants"
"Well, congrats to everyone for reaching the final five" Marty congratulated everyone as getting up "I should go and talk with Maxine about this"
"Does everything have to be about your girlfriend?" Veronica deadpanned at the photographer, but he was already walking off "I swear, no brains in that guy"
"I hear that sister" Bobby raised his hand to high-five her. The rich girl was entirely disgusted and tried quickly walking off.
However, Colmillo just had to trip her before running off, quickly getting chased after by her new rival. Mitzy and Bobby continued to remain seated. Bobby was simply smiling at Mitzy with his same little grin.
Confessional: Bobby
"Note to self, Mitzy's biggest weakness is catching the gay." he tapped his chin with his finger "I don't know if it'll come in handy but she's practically a statue!" he giggled.

As Marty looked around for Maxine, the little villainess was being held inside a massive cage that was holding her above a pit. She was watching everything going on in the outside such as Marty's date.
"How dare that Roxy act like that on their date. I wouldn't care what his stance on politics is so long as the innocent poor are the ones paying for it!" she declared firmly.
"Hey, keep it down!" Nelly screamed from the floor above her "Surgery isn't until tomorrow, so I don't want you ruining my tv night!"
Maxine growled and grumbled angrily, swinging her fists against the cage walls repeatedly. This seemed to open one of the prison cell walls to open slightly. This gave her a little mischievous idea, swinging over and over again until her hand was sore and bruised But, she managed to crawl her way out and use the cage to swing herself to an open vent.
"See you later Miss Frankenstein" she growled a bit before breaking through the vent and crawling away.
Almost immediately the moment she escaped a loud blaring went off.
AN: And there's Camila. She was fun, as I always say. I like a mischievous gypsy kinda character, and her basically being a more smug Hagakure makes her all the amusing. She was also fun for being a lil antagonist before Bobby and Veronica were taking over.
