No, a long update! Different things have been killing my time! I couldn't wait for them to be over so I could update this as soon as possible, hehe.
Part 3! And surprises lay ahead in this section of the game! Consider this my gift for such a long period of none to deliver (I've had worse though, lol). Enjoy!
Episode 7 (Part 3)
Previously on Saboteur's Island:
"Well, this is the final result," the host said. "The Food Frenzies team had won 5,000 coins out of a possible 20,000 coins. On the other hand, Team Delfino Duels had won a total of 10,000 coins out of their 20,000 coins. So, for this mission combined, you have won 15,000 coins out of today's potential 40,000."
Team Pot: 189,000c
Vivian: It was like, six missions in one. This game was getting extremely tough and scary.
"Hmm, not too shabby," the host told them. "I expected better though: this is the penultimate round of the game."
"The Mole did good," Wario only said, kicking at the ground. The players didn't look miserable, but they looked less happy than they usually did after the results of a mission were finally announced. After a little delay, they were brought back into their boat again, the same one they had used to travel to Delfino Square. But, not before eating lunch at the interesting location. However, their next location was going to be the most peculiar and mysterious of all, at a place with very little civilization and a treasure more sacred than anything before.
Their day was far from over. With nearly one-hundred and fifty thousand coins left in store to be added to the team pot, the players knew that their upcoming mission was going to be one of intense components and heavy value. But as they approached their next destination, they realized that the water below their boat was changing color. It was as if they were entering into some forbidden area of Isle Delfino as their small ferry entered into the realms of Noki bay.
"This is a...civilization?" Luvbi said, in full confusion as she looked around. "It's quite odd."
"And beautiful," Yoshi said in a hypnotized voice. He leaned out closer to see the bay's colors.
"The...water," Vivian gasped out loud, peering over the boat's edge . "It's slightly purple."
"That's a good color for you," McHallyboo laughed, then shook his head. " But it's not poisonous. It's rather natural this time of the year." Vivian looked less alarmed.
"Hmm, this place looks no different than the other places we've been to," Wario said, slightly yawning. He had just woken up from his cabin room, having been in the boat for over three hours. The players were relieved to see that there were numerous rocky lands within the area's terrain. The bay was mostly cliffs, and high above them, odd structures stood tall that either resembled shells or objects that looked similar in appearance to a shell. Metal "leaves" stuck out from the tower-looking structures: they resembled stepping platforms.
Wario: The game is getting more difficult and difficult. I just have to keep myself above the surface of the game to finally win in the end.
"I'm getting a horrible, sinking feeling from this place," Wario said, not sounding well.
"You were just sleeping," Vivian pointed out. "Aren't you wide awake now?"
"Getting tired in a place like this would be bad," Luvbi thought to herself. "So much will happen."
"At least the smell is good," said Yoshi, remembering Ricco Harbor's terrible odor from three episodes back.
"I wonder what game we'll have to participate in when we land," Vivian said out loud. Their boat was now entering fully into the area of Noki Bay, traversing around random pedestals that littered the surface of the water.
"Maybe there's no mission here at all," thought Yoshi, smelling the air and looking at the others. "I think we're finally taking a break. A vacation!" Luvbi shook her head vigorously with amusement.
"We are here to play a mission, and that's all, really," Luvbi replied, eyeing McHallyboo as he jotted something down on a clipboard. "Where else have we gone that a mission was not played out?"
"Nowhere else at all," Wario realized. Luvbi looked at her journal, at a certain page: Missions Played in Episode 7.
As the boat carefully traversed its way through a maze of floating columns, they all saw ahead of them a small structure that gave them all more relief. Just ahead of them within the domain of Noki Bay was a small hut, at the edge of the rocky lands. A short figure was already within the hut, and the players could only guess that a Noki had found sanctuary in it before they had arrived. As the boat turned sideways, it stopped, as each player looked out a window to see a side of a cliff right before them.
"Yes, we're here," McHallyboo said, voice relaxed. "Everyone get off safely. The rocks can be wet. Don't slip." One by one the players stepped onto Noki Bay's territory; McHallyboo stepped off last, and with a small signal, the boat turned slightly, began its miniature engine once again, and traveled off. The players, backs facing the hut, stood in front of McHallyboo.
"Welcome to Noki Bay," said McHallyboo, reaching his hand outwards towards the openness of the land. "Though the population of this location is very small, various Nokis live here and call this bay their abode. The thing is, even though they've lived here for many years, there are still some places in this very bay that they hadn't yet discovered nor come upon." A small smile appeared on his face, one different than any he had ever given before. The players were mystified as the host retained it on his face.
"You could call this place...very mysterious," he said to them. McHallyboo shifted his eyes elsewhere, but not to look at the players. They saw that he was looking past them, at the hut, and as the players turned around slowly but curiously, they gasped.
"As mysterious as the Mole," came a voice from the hut. A figure emerged from the shade of the hut, stepping her way carefully onto the rocky and non-dusty terrain. Standing before them was Toadette, smiling brightly.
Yoshi: All of a sudden we see the figure emerge that was in the hut, and wham! It's Toadette, Mole from season 1. But now, she's in the second season.
Luvbi: I had predicted that we would see Toadette eventually, since we saw Luigi and Blooper already before. Even so, I was still surprised, no doubt.
"A pleasure to see you again, madam," McHallyboo said, as Toadette joyfully gave a hug to the host. She then faced the players.
"Wow, you're...the Mole," Vivian said, at a loss for words. The others laughed.
"Well, not anymore," Toadette said, chuckling. "But you can't forget the saying: once a Mole, always a Mole!"
"Unfortunately," Wario said suspiciously, "one of us will be following closely to that motto too." Toadette let out a small chuckle.
"I heard that you guys have had quite a travel up to this point," Toadette said, shuffling something in her coat pocket.
"Yes, and this is us," Yoshi said, standing tall and sounding prideful. "We're the final four of this game."
"And I must congratulate you for making it this far," Toadette said, impressed. "But soon, there will be just three. Only one winner of this game, who will rise finally as the victor. One final loser. And of course, the Mole." The four players shot each other glances.
"This game is challenging, and it's no east feat playing this game." Toadette looked down at the rocky ground, smiling.
"Even as the Mole, it wasn't an easy feat playing this game at all," she added.
"I could imagine that," Luvbi said to her, tossing her head. "It must have been a tiring job on your shoulders."
"And you would know that, how?" Wario piped up, glancing at Luvbi. Luvbi just shot a look back.
"Well, I'd like to get to the point of why I'm here today," said Toadette, "though I do enjoy talking to you guys a lot. I'm here to give you something from the past. Please take this. It will help you." She took a packaged envelope out of her coat pocket and handed it to Vivian. The players all saw a label on the envelope's outside in black marker: THE MOLE'S EVIDENCE.
"Is this...a DVD?" Vivian guessed, holding the envelope carefully.
"Maybe," Toadette said, swirling her pigtails. "It's a little gift from me to you guys. Within this envelope is something very crucial. I think it is something that would help all of you very much."
"Well, we can't trust anything you give us," Wario said, jokingly.
"Help us on what?" Yoshi asked curious.
"It'll help you guys stay alive, " Toadette replied, her sentence holding the same quality of mysteriousness as her once-held occupation. She smiled, stepping back.
"Well, it's been a pleasure seeing you again, Ms. Rytoad," said McHallyboo, as Toadette gave a smile to the host.
"Thank you all, and good luck," she said, smiling at the players.
Vivian: It was amazing to see the Mole from the first season. I thought Toadette was a really nice person, but it's almost impossible to imagine that no matter how nice you can be, you can still do the job of the Mole.
When McHallyboo came up to the players that night, it was at the time when people would usually be in bed already. Toadette was gone, and as empty as the location was, the bay still managed to give the players some comfort. The hut, which initially served as a boathouse for Noki Bay, was turned into an abode full of cushioned sleeping bags and pillows. The sign at the boathouse's front, "Dactyl Boating", could have been replaced with a sign that was labeled, "Home Sweet Home", if the players had the time to do so.
"Dactyl boats, five coins?" read Wario, looking at the sign as they were exiting the hut. "What t he heck?"
"That raccoon boatman must be making a lot of money," Yoshi commented.
The four of them walked on, and they were brought away from their hut, to a remote part of the land, where they saw an assortment of objects that mystified them all and made their minds think more than ever before: lawn chairs, bags of popcorn, TV remotes, and even a coffee maker machine was seen sitting on the miniature rock land. Also on the small piece of land was another object that made the players wonder: a television.
"Oh...I fear," said Vivian.
Yoshi: So, the place looked comfy, but at the same time intimidating. After all, it was in the middle of water on a tiny rock platform.
"Does this mission require us to sleep on this rock?" Wario said with disbelief in his voice. "No way am I doing that for the night." The rock terrain wasn't entirely small, but it was surrounded by water on all sides, planted a few feet adjacent to the regular land-walking sections of Noki Bay. Luvbi stepped onto the rock, carefully making sure she wouldn't get wet.
"I'm quite awfully tired," she said, sitting down on a lawn chair. McHallyboo shook his head.
"You are not allowed to sit on that, yet," the host explained, as Luvbi got up hesitantly.
"Like I said before, things will get more and more difficult the farther you get into this game," said the host. "Right now, it's the penultimate round. You should all be aware that this game will no longer be easy."
Vivian: I've been strong in the game and have been playing to my best. But we all have a breaking point somewhere, and have to stop. I wonder what my breaking point is.
"Welcome to the pre-game for your next mission," said McHallyboo. "Consider this a little...movie night."
"All right!" said Wario. "We get to watch a movie for this game?" Luvbi rolled her eyes.
Luvbi: Nothing from now on was gonna be fun. It could look fun, but in the end, it isn't.
"The DVD," Vivian said in realization, looking directly at the television.
"As you may have remembered earlier today, the Mole had given you a gift," McHallyboo said to them. "Tonight, her present is what's important. Playing on this TV will be the first season of this game." The television immediately flashed on, its quality slightly blurry but never the less clear to all of them. A DVD menu was seen, and a title was present: The Mole Season 1: Traitor Aboard.
"Season 1?" Wario read.
"I knew it," Vivian said, over the soft DVD music that was playing from the screen.
"Are we gonna have to watch the whole thing?" Yoshi questioned.
"It's up to you," said McHallyboo, picking up a remote. "The footage to play will help you in a future mission. You may watch whatever you want tonight. It's your choice."
"No way, Jose!" said Yoshi. "Each episode is like an hour long. There's probably like nine or ten episodes in there. We'll be staying up till seven in the-"
"Like I said, it's your choice," the host said, going to the 'Chapter Select' menu. "And each episode is only fifty-six minutes long, don't worry."
"Fifty-six minutes?" Luvbi repeated. "Well, that saves times." She smiled sarcastically.
"You can choose to watch the whole thing, or not," said the host. "But let me just tell you that whatever will be displayed tonight will help you in tomorrow's mission."
"All right, well," said Wario, looking at the others, "It's not like we have anything else to do for tonight. I'm ready for this." His face turned serious, but cautious.
"Are you all ready?" he asked them.
"I don't know if I am," Vivian said, looking at the wire-framed lawn chair besides her.
"Oh, and one more thing," said the host, his foot semi-turned and on the urge of turning. "If you want to go to bed, you are free to head back to the hut. You are not permitted to sleep on this rock. Once you enter the hut, you cannot return here. How long can you stay up? Good luck." His eyes turned to the lawn chairs.
"But, you may sit on the lawn chairs for relaxation," he finished. Luvbi sat down on the chair behind her with a dissatisfied sound, as Wario moved his place up to a lawn chair as well.
"Happy watchings," the host said, trying to hide a small smile. "I'll be off to bed." As McHallyboo walked away, the four players were left alone.
Wario: When the host tells us to do something, we oughta do it. I was determined to watch the whole thing, having no idea what was in store for us later.
"Well," Wario said, "Let's start this movie night. We can't waste time."
"Is everyone ready?" Luvbi said, looking at the others. As Yoshi just nodded and Vivian didn't respond, Wario just looked back at her. Luvbi picked up the remote, then with a deep breath, pressed the 'Play' button. A few second into the start, a voice began to sound from the television. Clear on the television's screen was the face of McHallyboo.
"It has begun. Ten players. Nine are up to the challenge and playing by their own innocent strategies. Their goal is to win, to succeed in every challenge, and to be the one to be victorious at the very end. But one of them is the imposter. The cheat. The fraud. The saboteur. One of them is The Mole."
11:16 PM
"This is the Cliff Springs. All of you must jump down into the water below, and of course, survive." As soon as the game's first mission was on TV, the players' eyes had already adjusted to the screen's unusual brightness. They were watching intently, and it was only the first ten minutes.
Luvbi: So...how long we were all going to stay up for?
"So, we're all gonna survive for the night, right?" said Wario, turning to Vivian besides him. Vivian's face was mixed.
"I'm not sure, honestly," Vivian replied, turning to him. It was only the first ten minutes of the episode. "I think I might-"
"Shh, I'm listening," said Yoshi, putting popcorn into his mouth. Luvbi glared at him.
"You don't have to be such a snob," Luvbi said testily, grabbing her own bag of popcorn.
"I mean, we better all stay up," Wario pointed out. "We don't know what'll happen if we go to bed. This game is just a mystery." They all witnessed Blooper jumping from a cliff.
"Jumping from a cliff?" Yoshi said, pointing at the televison. "Pfft, come on! We jumped from an airplane!"
11:52 PM
""You are the Mole's first victim, and you must leave immediately." A player of large size and bird-looking features was seen walking away from the game on the screen.
"The first execution," said Vivian, immediately being reminded of their game's first elimination ceremony.
"Wow, if we had the same number of players that the original season had," Wario pointed out, "we would be at the final episode already, right?"
"Your mind is working fully," said Luvbi, her eyes showing tiredness. "I can't even decipher a thing like such right now."
"Well," Wario remembered, looking back at the day and laughing. "I was already asleep before we arrived at Noki Bay. In the ferry, I took a nap beforehand. No wonder I'm so ready!"
"That would explain things a lot," Luvbi said, exasperated.
"Rawk Hawk went home first?" Yoshi said, looking at the end of the episode with angry eyes. "I was cheering for him!"
12:25 AM
"Lakitu had been the one who persuaded Toadette into entering the bar with the clue, resulting in lost money for the group." McHallyboo was in the midst of giving the conclusion for the end of a mission in Episode 2. Toadette was shown, obviously upset and leaning against Peach, crying from the results of a recent mission.
"Crocodile tears," said Luvbi.
"Oh, come on," Yoshi said, rolling his eyes and spilling popcorn in the process. "At this point, it's so obvious Toadette is the Mole!" Vivian shook her head in disagreement.
"Maybe they felt sorry for her," Vivian considered, seeing Toadette wipe away tears, "so they didn't think it was her."
"The Mole needs a strategy, what-not, and stuff," said Wario, grabbing his own hand of popcorn. "Look at her. She's trying to get attention, while trying to look innocent."
"I guess that strategy didn't favor to you," Luvbi said to him, a sly smile on her face. "You're obviously not following it."
"Oh, just shush," Wario said back, with a glare. "You're distracting. Get back to to the TV."
1:09 AM
It was the third episode of the game. A hostage mission was being played as Blooper and Peach's voices were constantly being emitted from the TV. They were bickering amidst a baffling point in the intense mission, and the live players couldn't help but feel related to them: they were both confused and surrounded by an endless amount of water in the center of nowhere.
"Oh, that mission looks fun," Vivian said with thought, looking at the TV. "But scary."
"And very sabotag-y," Wario couldn't help but add. "This 'boat radar' mishap reminds me of a certain ear piece incident from our very own game." He looked as if he were thinking deeply.
"The glitched ear piece on the roller coaster?" Vivian spoke up. "Yeah...but now we know it wasn't Goombella's fault. It could have been anyone."
"Anyone here," said Wario with certainty. "Now we know that the person who messed up that ear piece is right in this group." Luvbi nodded.
"Wait, I'm still confused," Yoshi said, his voice having a hint of drowsiness. "If Doopliss thought Toadette was the Mole in the last episode...how did he get executed?"
"I can only assume they used editing and un-aired confessions to hide the truth," Luvbi assumed, and she gave out a slight yawn. She leaned back in her lawn chair more.
1:59 AM
"Smart..." said Luvbi. It was Episode 4 of the game, as the game's first mission was playing out.
"What's smart?" Vivian inquired.
"Toadette chose all the cruddy items to be put on sale," Luvbi pointed out, seeing Lakitu fail while attempting to sell a pair of shoes to an elderly Goomba. "She probably knew that the other two would have to sell those items."
"She's so small," said Yoshi, but he was not talking as much as he was before.
"She can be so devious," Wario commented, looking at the screen hard, "but remain so innocent."
2:41 AM
"Don't be the one in the back, I warn you. If someone in front of you has been cut so much that he's bleeding, you wouldn't want to be face-down, crawling across their blood and smearing their blood all over the grass, would you?" The players were shocked, hearing the host speak such words while explaining the rules of a mission.
"Wow, McHallyboo...was different," Vivian said, eyes slightly wide. She looked at the others, but then looked concerned when she faced Yoshi besides her.
"Are you sleeping?" Wario said to him, facing Yoshi, whose head was snuggled up on the arm rest of the chair. Yoshi got up.
"No," he lied.
"If you're gonna sleep, then you can't stay here," said Wario. "Remember the rules? I'll bring you back to the hut."
"Come on, that's ridiculous," Yoshi said with a chuckle, but his chuckle was low on energy. When the others looked at him they saw that his eyes were red. Little lines were forming under his eyelids.
"You don't look well," Vivian said, looking worried. "You have to go to bed."
Vivian: The scary thing was, none of us had been getting any sleep for the past few days. And with this game happening...we were going to drop out like flies soon. I had no idea how long I would stay up.
"If you're tired, you have to go back," Luvbi said. "McHallyboo did say something about not being allowed to sleep here. Which is pretty intimidating. If we fall asleep here, we might be penalized."
"So I have to go to bed?" Yoshi asked. Luvbi nodded.
"You want me to bring you, or are you okay?" Wario offered.
"I can...walk," Yoshi said, his voice low. He got up slowly and stepped off the rocky land and onto the side land of Noki Bay, where a path was readily available to the thatched hut. The others saw him walk, walk more, then walk again on two legs. Luvbi sighed with relief as she saw Yoshi get into the sleeping bags within the hut.
"Wimp," Wario snorted. "Now we have one less person to watch with us!"
"It's almost three in the morning," Vivian realized, her voice full of disbelief. "I can't believe we're up!"
"That's not bad at all," Wario said. "I've stayed up later before. And we have to do this, right?"
"Do we?" Luvbi said. "Maybe this is all a waste. A trick to make us all sleep deprived. For...tomorrow's mission."
"If we quit, we're like quitting an entire mission," Wario said.
"We still have four more episodes to go," Luvbi said, her voice showing despair. "This is absolutely mad."
"Well, at least he's okay," said Vivian, pointing after Yoshi who was already in the distance and going to sleep with comfort. It wouldn't be long until another player was to follow the same lead of quitting.
3:07 AM
"There's no coffee in the machine," Wario said, as Luvbi turned to Wario testily and strongly. Even so, her face still showed fatigue.
"I was just seeing what it's purpose was," she said to him.
"A coffee canister?" Wario said suspiciously. All of a sudden, Vivian let out a small sound. She was still facing the screen, as the other two looked at her. Her face seemed to be in a trance.
"What's wrong?" Luvbi said, concerned. Vivian shook her head, but her eyes were still on the screen
"I'm sorry, I...thought I saw something," she said, swallowing hard. "I thought I saw something flash for a second." Wario gave her a strange look.
"It's...late," Luvbi said, amidst a slight yawn. "We're all seeing things." On the television, the past players were having a touching family reunion. The players on the screen were full of life and energy, but the players watching were feeling the exact opposite: they were drained, and fading out.
3:31 AM
"Well, then," said Luvbi, her eyes turning away from the television screen. "I...I'm quite done."
"What do you mean?" said Wario. Episode 5 had just ended, and the introduction for Episode 6 was being played. But Luvbi had already gotten to her feet.
"When this pre-mission first started, I felt like already sleeping," Luvbi said. "Now...I really must rest. I'm leaving, but I'm sorry. I'm joining Yoshi."
"You're quitting," Wario said bluntly. "There's nothing else you're doing right now, except leaving this game!"
"You make it appear as if I'm committing a crime or something," Luvbi shot back, but with low energy. "Why do I get the blame?" Wario just turned back to the television.
"I'm blaming everyone but myself," Wario said, and even Vivian looked baffled. Luvbi's appearance looked once again tired.
"I am just going to sleep," said Luvbi, exhausted and worn out. "Adieu." She took one last look at the television, and then stepped away onto the side land of Noki Bay. Vivian looked after her as she reached the hut seconds later, entering into its sanctuary with Yoshi. Episode 6 on the television had begun, but there were only two players left watching.
"Well, I guess there's only the two of us left in this mini-game," said Vivian, sounding a bit nervous.
"Yeah," Wario said, looking slightly intimidated. "But now we know who the two strongest players are, right?" Vivian didn't know whether to shake her head or nod at Wario's statement.
3:58 AM
The penultimate episode was going slow. Dialogue was being spoken by the players, and the games on the screen were becoming more mental than physical. As Luigi was pondering how to put a certain piece of art into an exhibit, Wario and Vivian were slowly losing grip on being awake.
"It's almost...4 AM," said Vivian, looking at the mini alarm clock besides her chair. "We're all exhausted." She was not sitting in a chair, but on the ground instead, in fear of relaxing and sleeping in the process. Wario had one hand holding up his head, which lowered every few seconds. He grunted, bothered, and watched the TV intently.
4:18 AM
"Early on in the game, you had all been nervous about being executed on the first few yearning rounds, but with open truth do I say that you've all lasted longer than the six others. So please commend yourselves, and if you are eliminated tonight here, may you feel no shame in leaving, but rather indecisive pride for making it this far in the game." McHallyboo's words were loud and clear, but Vivian and Wario were barely paying attention.
"It's like...now," Wario said, mumbling and not bothering to sound loud.
"What?" said Vivian, her attention up once again, if only slightly.
"Just...nothing," said Wario. "But McHallyboo will be saying this, at this episode's end. Be prepared." Vivian nodded, understanding.
"I understand," said Vivian. It was close to 4:30 in the morning.
4:54 AM
Wario: I was completely finished and drained. I wanted to stay up more so badly, but my body was giving out. I had to sleep.
"I'm going...to bed," said Wario with the heaviest yawn possible, lifting his head slowly and getting up from his chair. Vivian looked at him, slightly surprised.
"Are you sure?" she asked him.
"Yeah," said Wario, "and if you want to go to sleep too, then feel free to also. I don't want to hold you responsible for being here. You can choose to do whatever you want to do."
Wario: I mean, I felt guilty leaving Vivian there. But I had no energy left.
"No," said Vivian, glancing at the alarm clock and sighing. "It's okay, don't worry. If you want to go, you can do. I was planning to stay to at least five." Wario nodded slowly, then stepped away from the land of the rock to the land of Noki Bay. His eye caught the hut in the distance, and as he stumbled to it slowly, the first drop of sunlight was already hitting the area. Wario made it to the hut, leaving the final player alone.
Vivian continued to watch, and at exactly 5:08 in the morning, she had made her way away from the television and back to the hut of Noki Bay. The final episode of Season 1 was still playing.
"Hi guys". When Toadette revealed herself as the Mole on the television, no one was present.
The players had very little to travel, from the hut to a waiting breakfast table outside, and unsurprisingly, the breakfast meal had turned into a brunch meal: they all woke up near the same time of 10AM. A Noki with a chef hat greeted them, but the players were far too tired to feel lifted. Most of all, they were still baffled.
"Six hours of sleep," Yoshi mumbled to himself, as a Noki handed him a glass of melon juice. "I can't believe I only got six hours of sleep! That's like, unhealthy."
"What are you complaining about?" said Wario, angrily. "You went to bed first! I was still watching the DVD of that game, till maybe almost five o'clock in the morning! Or was it 6?"
"But I suppose you didn't stay up the longest," Luvbi commented, looking over at Vivian. Vivian looked up, then shook her head.
"Yeah, but..." she started, wiping her mouth with a napkin, "I was just as tired. I didn't really watch much after Wario left, I'm sorry."
"Really?" said Wario. "Tell me more. I really want to know what else was shown, since I couldn't bring myself to watch the final moments."
"How far into the DVD did you watch?" asked Yoshi.
"I guess like...it was the finale," she said, shrugging. "The final three were there. And they were in the middle of a large final mission, but I left."
"So I guess no one saw the true ending," Luvbi said quietly. Vivian stood up straight with alertness, looking at her.
"True ending?" Wario questioned, picking up his toast and looking right at her.
"Maybe there was something important at the end that we needed, for our future mission," Luvbi said, her voice speculating. "Like, what was the last word spoken on the entire DVD?"
"Do you think," said Yoshi, swallowing hard, "that we will be asked questions later on what we saw last night on the DVD?"
"Perhaps," said Luvbi, and they all thought. McHallyboo came shortly after, a clipboard in his hand and a cup of tea in his other hand.
"Well, you're all unusually tired this morning!" said the host, trying to act oblivious to the fact that half of them had stayed up till five in the morning the same day. He laughed, and the players didn't.
"Yesterday's mini-mission was a tool for you all," said McHallyboo, "and hopefully it will help you today. You have no idea in what way it will help, but I guarantee, something will come into play and you will immediately remember something like a flash." The players listened with curiosity at the host's words.
"Tonight, you will be playing your final mission of the episode," he continued. "The game will be called, "The Sacred Pot", and a lot of money will be at stake. It can all be won, or it can all be lost. There is no in between, and the results lie in the actions you take."
Vivian: I was especially nervous for this final game. I didn't know what would happen and what would be in store for. It was all still a secret.
"Tell us more," said Yoshi, his interest heavy and leaning forwards to the host.
"I cannot explain the full mission until tonight," said McHallyboo, and he looked eager himself, "but, it does involve the existence of an unwanted intruder."
"An...intruder?" Wario said, looking confused. "What kind of intruder? Who is this?" The host shrugged.
"Just an intruder," said the host, "and that person will try to steal from you. Hence...the Sacred Pot."
Luvbi: I have a feeling that this mission was going to be painful. But I'm sure it'll beat a night full of deprived sleep and stock footage.
And the final mission before the final episode will commence! Whoa, talk about word repetition.
For the past 2 months I was cast into my high school's spring musical Into the Woods (for those who have seen my ridiculous Facebook posts x.x) and it seriously takes so much time from everything! But it's now over and all is good now! x) Now I can go from out of the woods (hahaha) and back to this epic world of sabotage vacation and the lovely world of the Mole! Only two episodes left...and it's almost done...
But not yet at all :) haha. One of these four are still the Mole, and their final mission of Episode 7 will begin soon! Keep your heads up! And stay tuned!
