Chapter 34: Fall of the Ghosts
Once again, it was finally Chris McLean's turn to have the audience see the main host of the show again.
Chris McLean's Commentary:
Well now partners, we had quite a rough season for us, with yours truly and the others being in the big house, signed a contract to get us out and now we're back in business after an old Western showdown took place against the two arch villains who were responsible for locking us up to begin with!
So get ready for more surprises and other forms of excitement here on Camp Drama Showdown!
End of commentary.
Indeed everything seemed almost back to normal, except a certain Edmund had snuck onto the set thanks to Geoff who likely had no choice but to let him on as what his contract stated. Edmund was sneaking around the place typically enough as the others were unaware of his presence except for perhaps Chris himself.
"Edmund, you're the only one who'll fear me" said an unfamiliar voice to Edmund right behind him.
"You better not think who I think you are old man" said Edmund as he turned out to be the ghost of Cotton hill.
"I must say, you're one bad vampire boy" said Cotton, "you know, I can tell everyone here that you are here unauthorized."
"Yes, but you'll be exposing yourself wouldn't you?" asked Edmund.
"Fair enough, but don't you better catch me hurting any of the contestants, alright?" asked Cotton.
"Promise" said Edmund as he was obviously crossing his fingers behind his back.
As Cotton went off, Edmund continued onward, but as the sun rose for morning, the contestants were gotten up once again by Chef and Colonel Barnes who indeed missed getting them up.
Confessions in the Outhouse:
"Man, do I miss getting them up" said Colonel Barnes.
"Always my tradition" said Chef.
End of confessions.
As the contestants got out of their cabins, they headed for the mess hall and were indeed expecting a challenge from Chris and Blaineley. Wally who noticed how large Owen and Cleveland Jr. were in taking up the line wasn't moved by them.
"Hey fatsos move it!" cried Wally.
That indeed sparked something deeply more so with Cleveland Jr. than it did with Owen, though Owen was equally unhappy but not as much as Cleveland Jr. was.
Confessions in the Outhouse:
"Why does that Wally have to make fun of my weight" said Cleveland Jr. as he was crying on camera.
"I know people don't like me from being large, but that just goes too far with that comment" said Owen.
"I know I might be a delinquent, but I wouldn't make fun of someone just because they're fat" said Duncan who overheard Wally's comments.
"Man how low can you go" said Gwen who also heard Wally's comment as well.
"That kid really needs to learn some manners" said Lindsey who agreed with Duncan and Gwen.
"If I were the size of Owen and Cleveland Jr. combined, first thing I'll do would be to sit on Wally" laughed Eva.
End of confessions.
Indeed those comments had drawn ire to some of the contestants, but as everyone continued to eat, Chris along with Blaineley came into the scene which everyone was going to expect they were going to receive information on the upcoming challenge.
"We have a very big announcement" said Chris, "we'll be dissolving our Idea Teams. Phineas, Ferb, and Isabella will be joining the Silver Spurs; Newton, Candace, Jeremy the Spinning Six; Tucker, Jazz and Sam the Chanting Cherokees and Dexter will be joining the Racing Rangers."
"So what about today's challenge?" asked Sissy.
"The challenge will be held at sundown" replied Chris, "it's a night time challenge."
Confessions in the Saloon:
"That's just great, we have to be around until sundown, and deal with Wally!" cried Sissy who still didn't like Wally for making those previous sexiest comments when he was back on the Raging Bulls.
"That Wally better be not making fun of my Cleveland Jr., or I'm going to make him sorry" said Trixie.
End of confessions.
As the others continued to finish up their breakfast and take a tour of the town, Haley wanted to meet up with Rose's alliance members, specially Trixie, Cleveland Jr., Johnny and Sissy who were the ones left so far.
"So what's this all about?" asked Sissy.
"I'm planning to help out Rose as much as I can since she's dating my older brother" said Haley, "so I decided to take control over her alliance for the time being that she's absent and will fairly split the reward with her."
"Why do you have to take control of everything?" asked Sissy who didn't seem to like Haley being so pushy.
"Look, I am just doing it for my brother and Rose, okay?" continued Haley.
"Fine" grumbled Sissy who obviously didn't like it.
Confessions in the Outhouse:
"I know Dukey didn't want to be in Rose's alliance, but if by chance one of us wins the game, I'll be still willing to share the money with him" said Johnny.
"Man, that Haley is starting to behave more like Rose" said Sissy who didn't like Haley.
End of confessions.
Rachel who didn't seem to trust Haley in taking control over Rose's alliance felt compelled to try to break it up. After all, Haley did try to save her brother from being voted off even though he was defending Rose for cheating in a previous challenge.
"There's got to be some way which we can stop Haley from going rogue against us" said Rachel to Nick and Chris Griffin, "I need you two to be on the lookout for any signs of weaknesses with her."
Confessions in the Outhouse:
"I feel kind of bad going after someone as nice as Haley, she's not anyway like Rose" said Chris Griffin.
"Man, Rachel's getting paranoid" said Nick.
End of confessions.
As for the two ghosts Ember, and Young Blood who were still in the game, they were anxious to get this challenge over with. They likely didn't know what was going to come up next since they couldn't take a peak at it before hand.
"Man, this bites" said Young Blood as the two were walking down an alleyway.
"Yea, I know what you mean, we can't take a peak at anything" added Ember.
"And you know what else blows, that Edmund kid, I bet he's right here right now just waiting to pounce on us" said Young Blood.
"I am closer than you think" said Edmund who was sneaking right up in the shadows behind Young Blood.
"Ah, Edmund, we were not talking behind your back like that" said Young Blood.
"Yea, he was mostly" said Ember.
"Hey!" cried Young Blood.
"Listen up you two, you are still working for me, I know how the challenges will be going down" said Edmund.
"Really, please do tell us" continued Ember.
As Edmund blathered about the challenge to Ember and Young Blood, giving them likely false details on how to win it, night soon fell upon the town, and the contestants headed to a camp fire with Chris holding a guitar wearing a cowboy hat greeting them along with Blaineley.
"Well howdy partners" said Chris, "isn't this quite a peaceful night here?"
"Chris, on with the challenge already" said Sissy who was rather becoming impatient.
"Fine, the challenge is simple, you will each have to come up with a way to make your ghost stories at the camp fire come to life and scare off the others" said Chris, "the first team that manages to do it first wins the challenge."
"You'll also be provided with materials to make your own scary costumes as well" added Blaineley as Hank and John Redcorn brought them out.
"Oh, I know the perfect costume" said Jazmine as she began to make hers.
"Wow, you're making a pig costume!" said Owen.
As each of the teams worked on their scary costumes, Owen got into a pig suit along with Ember and Molly; the Silver Spurs made a rabid coyote costumes for Sally, Zak Saturday, Huey and Cindy; the Blazing Saddles made a horse costume and a Grim Reaper style robe; the Chanting Cherokees made a costume out of some pumpkins; Blinding Bandits just simply were going to try to make themselves into the headless bandits; Wild Stallions were going to try to make a zombie horse; Spinning Six were going to make themselves into zombie Native Americans; and the Racing Rangers were going to try to make a dead Sheriff come back from the grave itself.
"Okay, first story teller goes to Johnny of the Raging Bulls" said Chris.
"This is going to be BOOORRRIIIINNNNGGGG" said Wally who wasn't interested.
"Once there was a butcher who thought he could make a good prime piece of ribs for his friends, Texas style" said Johnny, "but when he thought he made the right choice of the pigs he took, he was dead wrong."
Suddenly behind some rocks, Owen, along with Ember, Sissy came out wearing pig costumes, while Abigail and Kuki played the parts of the butcher and the butcher's apprentice.
"Oh my, pig zombies, that salesperson sold us some wicked pigs!" said Abigail who was trying to be dramatic about it.
"Another dime for me" said Marc who played the part of the crooked salesperson.
"I am a zombie pig, and instead of you trying to eat me, I will eat you" said Owen.
"He sounds like he could do it anyway without the stupid costume" laughed Wally who was being rather rude.
"Good, but needs improvement" said Chris, "next would be the Silver Spurs."
Baljeet was going to be the story teller for the Silver Spurs.
"And so, the infected coyotes came out from that direction" said Baljeet.
Huey indeed played the part of the rabid coyote as he leaped right out from behind the rock as Joseph along with Phineas, Ferb, Jimmy and Isabella were surprised by Huey's spark of anger along with Cindy who joined in.
"Ha, you call that scary?" laughed Wally.
That obviously angered Huey who then decided to play his part as a rabid coyote and started to pounce on him before Chef came into the scene and broke the two up.
"Better than the Raging Bulls, but still can use some improvements" said Chris, "next the Blazing Saddles."
"Grim Reaper indeed had his favorite horse to take whenever he wanted to since the horse was already dead" said Megan.
Danielle, Cleveland Jr. and Hiro who were in the horse were having trouble trying to help Zim who was trying to do his best to play the part of the Grim Reaper.
"It is me, the Grim Reaper here to come to er, reap you on my horse!" said Zim.
"What, you call that being me?" cried Grim who came into the scene quite not pleased.
"Silence, who is this imposter here?" cried Zim.
"Are you dumber than Billy, I'm the real Grim Reaper pal" replied Grim.
"Alright, enough" said Chef who broke up the fight.
As for the Chanting Cherokees it was easier for them to intact zombies who just had pumpkins as for heads.
"And beware, the next time you go to a pumpkin patch in the field, beware the living pumpkins!" cried Libby who was the story teller.
"Beware me!" said Danny who had a pumpkin head on.
"Fear me!" added Sam.
"Stupid pumpkin head!" cried Wally who had it on backwards to which he fell back and broke the pumpkin which made everyone laughed.
"Okay, that was better than the others" laughed Chris, "next comes the Blinding Bandits who are really playing the role of literally the headless bandits."
"Chris is indeed right, we are headless" said Brad who was doing a poor job in literally keeping his shirt above his head.
"I am Ed, the headless bandit" said Ed who then tripped on a rock while trying to walk.
"Actually, I can even become literally headless" said Jenny as her head literally rolled into the scene with her robotic body following it.
"Now that's what I call an actual costume" said Chris, "next the Wild Stallions who will try to play a zombie wild stallion."
"And there it was" said Haley.
"You call that a zombie horse?" cried Rachel who wasn't happy with the way Nick and Chris Griffin were playing their part as the horse.
"It's hot in here!" cried Chris Griffin.
"And I don't want to smell his BO, no offense" said Nick.
"None taken" said Chris Griffin.
But the Wild Stallions were not the only ones who didn't seem to do well, the Spinning Six did their very best with Bobby imitating a Native American dance while being a zombie, along with Trixie and Candace as well.
"Oh my, it looks like we're right in the middle of a Native American grave site" said Jeremy.
And last but not the least were the Racing Rangers with June playing the role of the resurrected Sheriff.
"I have come for my revenge against any outlaws who have done me wrong in the past" said June as she indeed took the role of both the dead Sheriff and the story teller, "at least two of you here are guilty of being behind most of the recent wrongdoing. Speak now, or I shall be forced to come find you myself."
June indeed played the game of duck, duck goose quite literally while she was searching for Ember and Young Blood at the camp fire. It didn't take long before Young Blood began to crack and began to panic for his afterlife, while Ember was trying her best not to budge.
"Feeling any guilt for what you've done to me?" asked June.
"Ha, like I should care" laughed Ember.
"Well, you SHOULD HAVE" said June who then revealed the mask behind her fast to be obviously painted on as if she were the undead which spooked Ember indeed.
"Wow, that was an awesome ghost story!" laughed Chris, "I think I know who'll be the winner, but just to be on the safe side, I'm going to give the wins to the Blazing Saddles for creativity, and the Spinning Six. For the Raging Bulls and Racing Rangers, it seems you'll be voting someone off."
About an hour or so after the challenge, things looked quite grim for Ember and Young Blood as they were the only two others besides Owen and June who didn't receive one.
"Hey, why didn't I get one, I played my part well!" cried June.
"Relax" said Blaineley as she gave June her golden wrapped chocolate horseshoe.
"Even though this isn't a contest to come up with a better line if you were a zombie pig bent out on revenge, you'll not be voted off because of that Owen" said Chris who also threw the golden wrapped chocolate horseshoe to him.
"This isn't fair!" cried Ember who began to protest.
"Hey, June was able to make you confess in your form of being a wimp to us" laughed Chris.
"And that means you will not stay since you were also the ones who placed us in jail when you helped out Eustace and Vicky" added Blaineley.
"No, this isn't fair!" cried Young Blood as the two were being dragged away by Chef who had a Fenton ghost grabber that he bought from Danny's father Jack Fenton.
"In you go" said Chef as he threw the two into the Carriage of Shame.
"Well, never thought I see ghosts actually here" laughed Grim, "time to head off!"
"This isn't over, this isn't over!" continued Ember who screamed from the Carriage of Shame.
As the scene changes, Edmund eyes on some food supplies that he found in a barnyard which would be the perfect place for him to hide for now. For Chris, who was revealing security tapes noticed Edmund's movements within the town while it was dark at night.
"Well now, isn't this a busy vampire stirring at night, what kind of deeds will Edmund start pulling next? Will Wally continue to make fat jokes about Owen and Cleveland Jr., and is it possible for Riley to really get with Megan, really? Find out next time here on Camp Drama Showdown!" laughed Chris.
