Chapter 23: Mine Shaft Rollercoaster Race

Once again, it was time for Blaineley to have her turn in give a recap to the audience.

Blaineley's Commentary:

Last time on Camp Drama Showdown, it was an old fashion train robbery where the contestants had to rob a train! Indeed, one particular member of the Silver Spurs got off on the wrong start, poor Lee Clark got himself dragged along by his horse, and for the Wild Stallions, Eddy was causing trouble for them and causing friction with Rose of the Spinning Six.

It would all come down to which team would become the greediest, although the Chanting Cherokees were quite quick to grab the treasure first, Cleveland Jr. surprised everyone by speeding up to the finish line in grabbing it, and poor Eddy failed to obtain the treasure for his team thanks to Zak Monday ending his reign. In the end, Lee and Eddy were voted off and sent home on the Carriage of Shame, so who'll be voted off today? Find out here on Camp Drama Showdown!

End of Commentary.

Chris was quite busy in his private office reviewing more files from his Idea and Sabotage Teams on who'd be upgraded to contestants.

"Let's see" said Chris as he took out Baljeet's file, "sounds good."

Chris then placed the file back and took out Candace's file and Jeremy's.

"Better find a way to keep these two together" said Chris.

But as Chris was still busy reviewing the two files, Courtney came into the scene with Young Blood and Ember outside Chris' office.

"Get Buford's file" said Young Blood, "I bet Chris doesn't want the guy in the game."

"I'm not sure if this is such a wise idea" said Courtney.

"Oh come on, we should get him in" said Ember who already has an obvious alliance with Buford, "it'd be fun to have him onboard."

Poor Courtney had little choice, as Chris placed Candace and Jeremy's files into a folder he was going to take, Chris decided it was time to get a quick nap.

"Hmm, maybe you better put Baljeet in the game too" said Ember to Courtney.

"Alright, alright, I'm doing it" said Courtney as she whispered back.

Courtney carefully snuck into Chris' office while Chris was taking a nap in his chair. Chris was still unaware of Courtney's presence as she took out Buford and Baljeet's files, and placed them in the folder and putting Candace's and Jeremy's files back in the file cabinet. She then gave the thumbs up to Ember and Young Blood on a mission accomplished sign.

Confessions in the Saloon:

"Man, I cannot believe Vlad wants me as his Secretary to hang around with Young Blood and Ember" said Courtney, "they don't even work for him officially."

"Ha, this is so easy having someone else do your work for you" laughed Ember.

"Time to have this plan unfold" laughed Young Blood.

End of Confessions.

About a few hours later it was finally morning, as Chris woke up in his office he noticed that Baljeet and Buford's files were in the folder and not Candace's or Jeremy's.

"Hmm, must be sleep walking again" said Chris to himself.

It was about that time that the rest of the remaining contestants were getting out of their cabins. Jimmy wanted to rekindle his love interest with Cindy as he noticed Hiro and Danielle were allowed to rekindle theirs with poor Danny being forced not to watch over them.

"So Cindy, want to hold hands?" asked Jimmy as he noticed Cleveland Jr. and Trixie were doing it as well as the other number of couples.

"As much as I like you Neutron, we have to focus on winning first" said Cindy, "I do not want anyone playing divide and conquer with our feelings."

Confessions in the Outhouse:

"Man, she shot me down" said Jimmy.

"I'm only looking out for the both of us" said Cindy.

"Hey, I can totally understand those two" said Libby as she noticed Cindy was reluctant to hold hands with Jimmy versus her and Marc.

End of Confessions.

Chris indeed had an announcement to make, as Buford along with Baljeet were brought to the scene.

"I like to make an announcement" said Chris, "since the Silver Spurs are shrinking, the producers have allowed me to add two new members to the team, they are Buford and Baljeet."

Confessions in the Outhouse:

"Yeah, I'm finally in the game!" laughed Buford with joy, "This is going to be good."

"I am also happy to be in the game" said Baljeet, "but I'm not the sort of person who would be a major player."

"Hey, our team's shrinking too!" cried Molly as she noticed the Raging Bulls were going to be always outnumbered.

End of Confessions.

"So when are we going to have the challenge?" asked Sissy.

"You know the routine" laughed Chris.

As everyone left for the mess hall, Candace who thought she was going to become a contestant had a private chat with Chris.

"Chris, I thought you were going to add me" said Candace.

"I was" said Chris, "but then I fell asleep and must have placed Buford and Baljeet's files into the folder while I was sleepwalking."

Confessions in the Saloon:

"That's strange, Phineas and Ferb are good friends of Chris and said off camera I'd be the next one to become a contestant, but I didn't get in!" cried Candace, "Wait a second, how could Chris feel he was sleepwalking while he was in his office?"

"I'm happy that Buford and Baljeet got in, but we had a private chat with Chris off camera that he said he'd place Candace and Jeremy in" said Phineas.

"Very strange" said Ferb referring to Chris' odd decision.

End of Confessions.

As Chris' divided Idea Team were wondering what might have happened, Buford was enjoying being served by Chef well knowing he had an alliance with Ember and Young Blood before hand.

"It's nice to see a friendly face" said Buford to which Chef wasn't as bit friendly to him.

Confessions in the Outhouse:

"You call this a friendly face?" asked Chef to the audience as he was pointing to his face.

End of Confessions.

But Buford wasn't the only bully around, a certain Troy Adams was mocking Sheldon for liking a robot girl like Jenny. Troy had brought over a toaster and placed a dress on it.

"Hey Sheldon" laughed Troy, "I found a new girl for you!"

"Hey, how do you know a robot girl isn't like that?" asked Sheldon.

"No one loves a machine, it's just as bad if you have to be part dragon" added Troy.

"Hey, you knock that off" said Dexter.

"So, you want a piece of me Poindexter?" asked Troy as he then used poor Dexter like a stump and literally sat on him, "Yeah, that's right, move me to the mess hall!"

Poor Dexter was being tortured by Troy as he went to the mess hall, as Ray Ray was waiting in line, Troy placed his feet on Ray Ray's head.

"Now I got a stool!" laughed Troy.

"Excuse me, but I think you're on my brother" said June, "and you're on that kid's head."

"So what if I am?" asked Troy, "What are you going to do about it?"

"Oh, I'll show you what I am going to do!" roared June.

June chased after Troy who was faster than Dash, Jenny who overheard Troy bullying Sheldon decided to join on in chasing down Troy.

"Wow Mandy, those two girls must like Troy" said Billy.

"I guess you're just as dumb as you look" laughed Troy.

As Troy kept on laughing, Mandy tripped Troy which Troy himself flipped up in the air and landed right in Chef's food being covered in it. Chef along with Colonel Barnes took over and ordered everyone to go to the area where the challenge was going to take place. Everyone headed back to the mine area.

"Welcome to the mine shaft rollercoaster challenge" said Chris.

"Oh this one will be quite a fun one" laughed Blaineley.

"You are indeed correct" said Chris, "each team will get a mine shaft cart to ride in, there are eight sets of tracks, you'll need to work as a team to pull the switches on the tracks to make you lead back to the finish line."

"What happens if you don't?" asked Frida.

"That's the fun part" laughed Blaineley.

"If you do not, chances are likely you will NOT make it to the finish line and your team will have to send someone home" said Chris.

"First team that reaches the finish line on either side or crosses the finish line not in last place wins immunity" continued Blaineley.

As everyone got onto their mine shaft carts, Chris fired a gun loaded with blanks which sent the contestants heading off. Since Buford was an ally of Ember and Young Blood, he knew the challenge before hand and knew which switches to turn.

"Wow, that was a close one" said Jimmy.

"You don't know the half of it" said Buford.

As for the Chanting Cherokees, Frida was switch pulling crazy as she pulled whatever switch there was, sometimes having her team go around in circles and getting lost.

"This is getting us nowhere fast" said Danny as he decided to takeover.

Danny ended up pulling the right switch sending his team in the right direction, as for the Raging Bulls, poor Molly was getting confused on what switches to pull as well but not on purpose like Frida. Suddenly, Molly pulled a switch that sent the Raging Bulls off a track that had a dead end.

"Dead end!" cried Johnny.

"I'll shield you!" cried Hoogie who was using his body to protect everyone else.

As the mine cart fell off, poor Hoogie was injured while Molly was hurt but not as badly as Hoogie. As for the Blazing Saddles, Mandy was on a roll pulling the right switches and catching up to the Silver Spurs.

"Think you can beat me?" asked Mandy to Buford.

"Ha, I know I can, I got this game in the bag" said Buford.

"What do you mean by that?" asked Baljeet.

"Something that goes a lot like this" said Buford as he pulled a switch sending Mandy's team in the wrong direction.

"We're going in the wrong direction!" cried Danielle.

The Blazing Saddles were sadly right on the same track as members of the Racing Rangers.

"Look out!" cried June as she was prepared to shield everyone.

Indeed Billy who was used as a shield by Mandy got hurt, along with Nazz on the Racing Rangers and Mister Mittens as well. The Silver Spurs were in the clear, with being caught up by the Blinding Bandits, the Chanting Cherokees, the Spinning Six and the Wild Stallions.

"Man, we're running out of switches to dupe them!" cried Buford.

"We're sabotaging the other teams?" asked Cindy.

"Yeah, it's how you play the game missy" said Buford.

Buford then noticed a switch to a dead end as the Spinning Six were coming up.

"Time to say good bye to one more team" laughed Buford as he pulled the switch.

"What the heck?" cried Marceline as she noticed her team was going in the wrong direction.

"We're going to crash, dead end!" cried Rose.

"Here, use Jack as a shield!" laughed Marceline.

"Hey, what the!" cried Jack.

Poor Jack was indeed the one who got hurt as Marceline had used Jack as the perfect shield for the others on her team. The Silver Spurs indeed came in first, with the Blinding Bandits in second and the Chanting Cherokees in third, and the Wild Stallions in fourth.

"Wow, it's going to be one large elimination ceremony" laughed Chris.

Indeed it was rather a larger camp fire ceremony, as the teams that didn't make it were forced to vote someone off. The two members of the Raging Bulls that didn't get a golden wrapped chocolate horseshoe were obviously Molly and a very injured Hoogie; for the Blazing Saddles it were Mandy and Billy; the Spinning Six, Marceline and a badly injured Jack Spicer; and the Racing Rangers a relatively injured Nazz versus a badly injured Mister Mittens.

"Wow, I mean wow, that was quite a challenge with many to choose of who'd be voted off" laughed Chris.

"Just get on with this" said Blaineley as she wanted to get the ceremony over.

"Alright" said Chris, "Molly, you got a bit confused with the switches, Hoogie, you did your best to help your team. Mandy, you could have done what Hoogie did, but used Billy as a shield."

"I must say, I'm impressed with the way you used Jack as a soft landing pillow" said Blaienley to Marceline, "Nazz, Mister Mittens, today wasn't your best."

"Last golden wrapped chocolate horseshoes goes to" said both Chris and Blaineley as they were waiting for the dramatic pause, "Molly, Mandy, Marceline and Nazz!"

"Remember, watch out for Rose" said Mister Mittens to Dukey, as Mr. Black and Mr. White had arrived on the scene to secretly take back Mister Mittens as he was the only one not going on the Carriage of Shame.

"This is so unfair!" cried Jack as he headed onto the Carriage of Shame with Billy and Hoogie.

"Hey, at least I was heroic doing it" said Hoogie to Jack.

"Come on, you three better get going" said Grim as he then took off after the trio got onto the Carriage of Shame.

But as the cameras changed, Cotton's ghost who was still roaming around with Riley was trying to encourage Riley to spy on Ember and Young Blood.

"Listen" said Cotton, "I heard that those two are up to no good."

"You mean Ember and Young Blood?" asked Riley.

"Yeah, I ran into them before I decided to help around here" said Cotton.

As Riley peaked through his hiding place, Ember and Young Blood stepped into the scene with Courtney.

"Nice moves on getting Buford and Baljeet into the game" said Young Blood.

"Well, you two make me nervous" said Courtney.

"Yeah, we get that sometimes" said Ember, "but really, thanks, we'll let you know when to screw around with others."

As the trio left, Riley thought of an idea.

"Ha, I think I know what to do next" laughed Riley to Cotton, "I'll record their meetings."

"There you go boy" said Cotton, "just be careful with those two."

As Cotton left, Chris who got some finger print dusters out noticed some odd finger prints emerging in his office.

"Hmm, just who do you think these finger prints belong to?" asked Chris as the camera turns to him, "And is Courtney behind possibly putting Buford and Baljeet in the game? Find out more next time here on Camp Drama Showdown!"
