A/N: Already to the penultimate episode… Wow. I want to thank all my readers, reviewers, followers, and everyone else for helping me get this far. By the way, now's not the time to grieve for our eliminated contestants, because every single one of them appears in this episode!
Episode 12 – Call of the Losers
"Welcome back!" Blader DJ said to the camera. "Now, I know some of you may have been wondering, 'do those eliminated really go home?' Well, the answer to that is no. After someone is eliminated, they actually go to this nice little resort called Loser's Land. And we're going to go visit them today." Blader DJ explained all of this, then got on his motorboat and took off.
Within the hour, they arrived at a small island with a huge resort on it. Loser's Land was plastered on the front of it in large, red letters. The eleven eliminated contestants were walking around outside, some were relaxing in the pool, some were playing Table Tennis, some even sun tanning. "This, my friends, is Loser's Land." Blader DJ said as he walked out of the boat and into the resort. "It has almost everything you can think of. Video games…" Blader DJ walked past Masamune, who was playing Minecraft on a computer. "Swimming…" Gingka and Madoka were shown playing catch in the pool. "All sorts of recreational stuff!" Dashan and Kenta were playing ping-pong, while Sophie and Kyouya were playing shuffleboard, Sophie kicking Kyouya's butt. "Books galore…" Ryuga was shown reading 'Gone With the Wind.
"Why have I never read this book before?" he asked himself, not even noticing his host passing by.
"A gym upstairs!" Nile was off to the side, punching a punching bag. "And of course, a Beyblade arena." Argo and Julian were battling on the opposite side of the gym from Nile. "So, as you can see, the contestants that are eliminated, certainly do not go home. They relax here until they are needed. So, we're going to torture them. I'm going to interview every single one of them, and possibly do something more." He smiled mischievously at the last part.
"First up, we'll go with Nile." He walked around Argo and Julian fighting, and stood next to Nile, without the boy even noticing. He reached over and yelled as loud as he could in his ear, "HI NILE!" Nile jumped backwards at least a few feet, but calmed down and got back to punching.
"What do you want? And if you do that again, it won't be the bag I'll be punching."
"We're here to interview you. So you, being the first one beaten by Hikaru, has had the most time here. How do you like it?" he asked. Nile shrugged.
"Better than being on those lazy excuses for islands." Blader DJ rolled his eyes.
"Okay then, how is the food here?"
"Just as bad as the rice on the island. Except for the tiki bar." He added. "That thing is awesome."
"You didn't like my rice?" he asked. Nile shook his head. "Well fine then." Blader DJ walked off. Nile sighed, happy to be away from his former host.
A scream was heard downstairs, and Blader DJ walked down. The source turned out to be Masamune, pressing buttons faster than the blink of an eye. "DIE, CREEPER, DIE!" He yelled at the game. Blader DJ rolled his eyes, and shut the computer.
"Hey, circuits-for-brains, answer a few questions, would you?" Masamune looked ready to burst.
"Are you crazy?! I didn't even save! My castle is gone! Why you…" Masamune got out his bey, and aimed it at Blader DJ. The older man yelped and ran out. Masamune sighed and opened up his computer to find the game still running. "Oops."
Blader DJ had ran out into the outside area. The Tiki Bar, the one Nile had mentioned, was in the center of the pool, and Gingka and Madoka were having a drink. "Yo, lovebirds!" He yelled, and Gingka and Madoka turned around. "Care to answer a few questions?"
"No!" Madoka said, and got back to her drink. Gingka rolled his eyes at his girlfriend, and dove into the water, swimming up to Blader DJ.
"What do you want me to answer?" he asked.
"How are you and Madoka doing, for starts." The host said.
"We definitely have our differences, but everyone's different. It's fun to spread out."
"So, you're telling me, you've dated other girls."
"Uhh…"
"He's done what?!" Madoka said, storming up. This was Blader DJ's clue to slowly walk back, without Gingka noticing.
"Let's try Julian." He said, walking back upstairs. Julian and Argo were still battling, but now Julian definitely had the upper hand.
"Go! Eyes of Medusa!" He yelled, and suddenly, Argo's bey couldn't move. Destroyer quickly flipped Argo's bey out of the stadium, winning Julian the match.
"Told you I'd win." Julian said, as Argo handed him ten bucks.
"Sweet." Blader DJ said, as he was clapping. "So Julian, care to explain that bey to your folks at home?"
"No."
"Okay! Then how about this. How is it here at Loser's Land? What's your favorite thing to do?
"Well, the whole resort as a whole is nice, but no one can stand up to me. Except maybe Kenta on that blasted Table Tennis table. And to think I was Table Tennis champion of the world at one point."
"You were champion of everything in the world at one point, Julian." Sophie said, walking up. "So what are you doing here, Jonathan?"
"I told you, never call me by that name!" Blader DJ exclaimed.
"Your first name is Jonathan?" Argo asked.
"Yes, not that you need to know, though. And Sophie, I was trying to interview Julian."
"Oh. Carry on then." She said, and walked away. Blader DJ shook his head, and called his second cameraman to follow her. He then returned to Julian.
"You were Table Tennis Champion of the world?" Blader DJ asked him.
"Yes, and I was also champion of tennis, shuffleboard, Halo, wrestling, boxing, singing…" He continued on and on, until the cameraman stuck a rag in his mouth.
"That reminds me, I was also in the WEA, for a while."
"WEA?" Argo asked.
"World Eating Association." He answered. "You wouldn't believe the torture I had to go through."
"Okay, how about you Argo? Having fun at Loser's Land?" Argo nodded his head.
"The pool is great, even with that big hunk of bamboo in the middle. By the way, a diving board would've been nice."
"I'll add it to my Summer shopping list."
"Other than that though, everything's awesome, even though I haven't won a single thing against this guy yet." He said, jerking his thumb towards Julian.
"Anyone special you like?" Blader DJ asked him.
"Well Sophie does have those nice curves…" He started, but Julian punched him in the gut.
"Never mind…" he said, obviously in pain.
"Okay…" Blader DJ said, slowly backing away.
Blader DJ broke into a run, and Julian came screaming after him. It was certainly an odd sight, a grown man being chased by someone half his age and twice his height. It certainly caught a snicker or two from Kyouya and Argo. Blader DJ eventually just jumped into the pool, waistcoat and all, and Julian held back there. "Ha!" he yelled. Julian smiled, shook his head, and went back upstairs to train. "Well, since I'm down here…" He didn't have time to finish, because Madoka threw her smoothie at his head.
"That was for those lies about Gingka!" She yelled at him.
Blader DJ Confession: "I don't remember her being that uptight before she was eliminated…" He said, rubbing the back of his head.
"Okay. Fine, I lied. Now will you answer some questions?" he asked.
"No!" She yelled, and turned around to order another smoothie.
"Just give her time." Gingka whispered. "She'll warm up."
Blader DJ gave a friendly smile and nod, thankful for Gingka's seemingly endless patience. "Well, while I'm down here, might as well interview Kenta." He crawled out of the pool, and walked over to the ping-pong table, after drying up. Kenta and Dashan were stuck in a rally. Blader DJ's head went back and forth, back and forth, back and forth, until Dashan finally made a mistake, and Kenta smashed it onto the table. "Yes! I win again!" Kenta exclaimed. Dashan had a smile on his face, as he shook his head and put his hand out. Kenta shook it, then went back to celebrating.
"How long has he been playing table tennis?" Blader DJ asked Dashan.
"Every second since he's been here. He's beaten everyone except Madoka, and she hasn't even played." Blader DJ nodded his head.
"So how's Loser's Land?" He asked.
"Better than being on the normal island." He replied. "Everything is so much better here, but one million dollars would've been better."
"Should've played the game better, my friend." Blader DJ responded. They stayed in silence a few seconds, until Dashan asked another question.
"So your real name is Jonathan, huh?" He asked with a mischievous smile on his face.
Blader DJ instantly frowned. "Curse you, Sophie!" Dashan broke into laughter.
"Okay, it's Kenta's turn." Blader DJ said, walking over to the green-haired boy.
"Care to play me Kenta?" he asked. Kenta smirked and handed him a paddle.
-Twenty Seconds Later-
"Good gosh, he is good." Blader DJ said. Kenta was on the other side of the table, dancing for joy. "I'm gonna go find Ryuga." He said to Dashan, then walked into the lounge. Ryuga now had Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows in his hands.
"What happened to Gone with the Wind?" Blader DJ asked.
"I finished it a few minutes ago, Jonathan."
"DARN IT, SOPHIE!" Ryuga smiled, and went back to his book.
"Is that all you've done? Read?" Blader DJ asked. Ryuga nodded. "I just didn't picture you as the reading type." Ryuga shook his head.
"You think I wouldn't take advantage of your huge library? I'm surprised Madoka isn't reading a book on the HMS." Blader DJ opened his mouth to ask, but… "Hard Metal System. It's what they used before the Koma beys."
"Okay. Well, have fun with your book." Blader DJ said as he walked off.
"Hey! Kyouya!" He yelled, running over to the shuffleboard deck. "Answer a few questions. You too Sophie."
"Crap." Sophie said.
"So how does it feel to be so close to the Final Five, only to get eliminated by Tsubasa?" Blader DJ asked Kyouya.
"Well, I'm glad I was eliminated by Tsubasa. He's one cool guy, you've gotta admit." Blader DJ nodded.
"Have any ideas on what his plan was?" He asked. Kyouya shook his head.
"Not a clue."
"Well, okay." Blader DJ concluded, before moving on to Sophie. The girl gulped, scared of payback.
"Hello Sophie." Blader DJ said. "We're going to play a little game of Truth or Dare. Got it?" He asked. The girl nodded. Kyouya decided to kick back and watch the show.
"Truth or Dare." Blader DJ asked.
"Dare." Sophie replied, without thinking. Blader DJ smiled mischievously.
-Twenty minutes later-
"I'm a Barbie Girl, in a Barbie World!" Sophie sang. She had on a grass skirt, a pink coconut bra, and her blue hair looked like she stuck her head in a dryer. "It's all plastic, It's so fantastic!" She concluded. The audience cheered loudly, though some couldn't move their hands in their fit of laughter.
"Okay… That's good." Blader DJ said in between fits of laughter. "We're even." He said. Sophie scowled and went backstage to change back into her regular clothes. Once she was back out, everyone started to leave. "Wait!" He yelled. "I have a surprise." He said, and walked up onto the stage. "Some of you were eliminated because people hate you. While some of you just didn't play the game well, or injured, or even gave up!" He said, and this got everyone's attention. "Well, now's your chance at revenge, because you eleven eliminated bladers will decide who will be joining you tonight!" Most of the loser's eyes were as big as plates, and some gasped. "Yep. So you'll get one vote each as to who you'll eliminate. Nile, care to go first?"
"I'd have to say Chao Xin. As much as I hate him, he doesn't deserve to be in the Final Five."
"Agreed, I'm voting Chao Xin too." Masamune said.
"I'm voting Tsubasa." Argo said. "He's the one who got me out."
"Well Gingka got me out, but he's already eliminated, so I'll vote Yuu. His skills are basically zero, luck has gotten him this far." Julian said.
"I don't know who to vote…" Gingka said, as Madoka yelled, "Chao Xin!" Gingka shrugged and jerked her thumb at Madoka, signaling he voted for Chao Xin too.
"Well that's four votes for Chao Xin, one vote for Tsubasa, and one random vote for Yuu. Dashan, you're next."
"I'm voting for Tsubasa too. That backstabber voted me off, even when we were in an alliance."
"Yeah, me too." Kyouya said.
"Same here." Kenta said. Some heads turned at that. No one knew Kenta was in an alliance with Tsubasa.
"Well, that's four votes apiece for Chao Xin and Tsubasa. Sophie, Ryuga, you two are the last ones." He said. Sophie gulped.
"I, uh, choose… Grr… Yuu!" She yelled. "He's safe anyway. No one can eliminate him anymore." She shrugged. And so it came down to Ryuga. He had his eyes closed and his head down, but everyone could tell he was thinking.
"Chao Xin." He said simply. There were some groans, and some cheers, but it was Chao Xin going to Loser's Land.
"Well, Chao Xin is coming back here. I hope you're happy." Blader DJ said. "See you all later!" He said, waving them off. Blader DJ got on the boat, and sped back home.
"Bye Jonathan!" Blader DJ heard Kenta yell. Blader DJ scowled, and told the driver to go faster.
Green Tribe Camp – Night 36
"They did WHAT!" Chao Xin yelled. The other four slowly creeped back into the shelter.
"They voted you off. Now get in the boat." Blader DJ said, pushing Chao Xin into the boat.
"Boy, I'm going to hunt them down." Chao Xin said as his boat sped off. Blader DJ turned back to the remaining four.
"Well, three days left. Four competitors." He said. The Final Four nodded. "Each of you now has a one in four shot of winning one million dollars. Get a good night's rest, because you, my friends, are going to need every bit of it." Blader DJ finished, and walked back into the woods, leaving the Final Four to think.
