"Well it's about time you came back! Anyway, let's start the challenge shall we?" Lord Death said cheerfully as he blow a whistle.

The teams went wide-eyed and were now talking.

Team 1

"We should avoid him at all times. I think I've heard about him before.." Kid said as he started to mutter. Blair rolled her eyes and then spoke.

"Whatever! I say, we sacrifice Maka!" she said happily.

Maka went wide-eyed as she had her arms crossed. She shook her head quickly.

"How about, you!" she snapped a bit offended.

Blair gasped and was about to start something until, Lord Death came.

"Did I forget to tell you guys?" he said.

The team got confused after he said that.

"What?" they said.

Lord Death sheepishly grinned.

"Well, you can't sacrifice a team member unless you want to lose" he stated.

Soul spoke up.

"What are you talking about? The rules some pretty simple. Don't get killed by Stein" Soul said.

Lord Death shook his head.

"Not exactly. You must not get killed by Stein, AND, have the most members on your team, still activated. Technically it means, the smaller your team gets, the better chance you'll lose!"

Soul huffed after he said that and turned his back as he shoved his hands inside his pockets.

"Then let's go team. We don't have all day"

Confessional

"Being the team's leader is pretty cool. Especially if you want to impress somebody" Soul said as he smirked.

Meanwhile, Lord Death and Stein..

"How come Medusa and Arachne are playing?" Stein said breaking the silence between the two.

Lord Death looked at Stein and smiled.

"What are you talking about?" Death asked.

Stein raised a brow "Have you been not paying attention?"

Lord Death shook his head.

"As long as the show gets ratings, it doesn't matter to me" he replied

Stein sighed as he put a hand on his head, while leaning on his chair.

"Medusa was on team 1, Arachne was on team 2, the teams that were moving on were teams, 3, 4, 5 and 7" Stein stated as he looked at his watch.

30 seconds left..

Lord Death shrugged as he clasped his hands together.

"Well then. That's great for ratings!"


Team 2

"I'm saying we should go right" Arachne said as she put her hands on her hips as she glared at Medusa.

Meanwhile Medusa had her back turned and was facing the left.

"Do I look like I care? Obviously we can't make the team decide so let them make the choices" Medusa said as she had her arms crossed.

Arachne rolled her eyes and put her hands down.

"For once your actually right Medusa. Let the team decide" she said plainly as she smirked.

Medusa nodded and then started walking towards the left. Meanwhile, Arachne started walking right.

Kim, Free and Liz were now dead confused. Who would they follow?

With Arachne

Kim and Liz were following Arachne. They decided it was best to not bother the two love-birds. Besides, Arachne was probably right..

But so could've been Medusa..

"Glad I don't have the team hating me" Arachne said with a chuckle.

"Now, I won't try to vote you off" Arachne stopped and then turned around.

"Agreed?"

With Medusa

Free was the only one following Medusa. He knew that she would vote and kill him if he didn't.

Medusa only smirked to herself.

"So, what did you pick left again?" Free asked a bit confused.

Medusa chuckled a bit "Actually, that's the thing" she started as she stopped. She turned around to face Free.

"Personally, I don't know if I'm right or not. I don't know if we're going the right way" she said and then frowned, "But I had a bad feeling about the right side. I decided to pick the left. Seemed more...safe" she said and then looked at her nails.

"Besides, I'm glad they didn't follow me. Otherwise, I'd have to walk with some pathetic people" Medusa said and then looked at Free.

"I'm happy that at least I have somebody who will protect me"

Team 1

Everything wasn't going as planned. Especially when Lord Death spoke.

"Campers! It's time to play! Stein will now be looking for you guys! Good luck!" Lord Death said happily.

Maka huffed as she rolled her eyes. You see, Maka,Soul and Kid were on the highest tree that they could find.

Meanwhile, Blair went with Tsubaki, Blair didn't really care anyways. She wanted to stay as far away from Maka so they wouldn't argue, if they didn't then they probably wouldn't get caught by Stein.

Soul sighed a bit "Cross your fingers" he whispered. Maka nodded as she smiled a bit.

Kid gave out a small chuckle as he watched the two love-birds.

Maka and Soul then looked at Kid suspiciously.

"What?" Maka whispered.

Kid shook his head as he smiled towards her.

"You must really like him if your being cute" Kid said as he smiled.

Maka instantly turned red.

Meanwhile, Soul was...I guess you could say...jealous.

"Yeah, she really does. I suggest you shut your mouth before you lose it" Soul threatened viciously. Kid was going to respond but then they heard footsteps.

They went wide-eyed and quiet. If they even made one noise, it would be the end.

"Come out kids. I'm not scary. I just want to dissect you. Is it too much to ask?" Stein said as he walked around the tree.

Maka was literally shaking a bit.

But eventually stopped when she saw and heard that Stein was gone.

She was so over-joyed that she hugged Soul's waist.

Soul was a bit surprised because he almost fell!

Thankfully he caught himself. Then he hugged Maka back.

Kid rolled his eyes and muttered to himself.

"Get a room"

Soul overhead and was about to speak until the team got startled by a scalpel thrown against the edge of the tree.

Blair screamed as she started to fall. She landed with a thump.

Confessional

Blair had her arms wrapped around herself, she looked down sadly and was terribly red.

"So embarrassing"

Meanwhile, Free and Medusa

Medusa and Free were walking, they had no idea where but they just kept going. No questions intended.

Free though, was complaining a bit.

"Do you even know where were going?" he asked.

Medusa sighed as she had her arms crossed.

"I have no idea. There's no need to worry though, I'm sure Stein has either team one or the rest our team. If I'm not worrying, I don't think you should" she stated.

Free stopped walking then.

He knew he'd have to tell her eventually, he needed to tell her about his true feelings about Eruka.

But, of course, he wimped out.

The Half Of Team 2

Liz was shaking. Liz didn't really exactly like, the dark. Especially after Arachne offered to tell, Kim and her a ghost tale.

"No thanks I'm good" Liz said as she frowned worriedly. Meanwhile Kim was smirking as she nodded.

"I'd love to hear one" she stated.

Arachne smirked and then took out her fan.

"Well ladies. If you really want to hear a truly frightening story, then hold in your screams and be prepared"

Kim looked at Arachne with sparkling eyes, she was really intrigued.

Meanwhile, Liz was holding herself with her arms and shaking a bit.

"M-Maybe, you shouldn't s-share" Liz stuttered with horrid eyes.

Arachne fanned herself and then spoke.

"Too bad. I'm the leader right now" she started "Besides, who wouldn't like a good scare?"

Team 1

"I hate you Soul!" Maka yelled as she was running with Soul, Kid and Tsubaki.

Sadly, Blair was left behind.

Soul smirked but still had worried eyes.

"Don't blame me bookworm, you were talking!" he defended.

Maka rolled her eyes.

"Idio-"

"Stop arguing love-birds!" Kid yelled as he cut off Maka.

Maka and Soul turned redder as they ran.

Meanwhile Tsubaki giggled. Kid could tell Tsubaki knew something so she let her continue his speech.

"W-what do you mean" Maka stuttered.

Tsubaki smiled at that, her friend was surely liking Soul.

"You don't see?" Tsubaki said as she smiled widely.

"You guys are arguing over stupid things. Hugging each other. Teasing each other. Laughing and having a good time" Tsubaki paused and then started to giggle.

"That's pretty much liking somebody as well as falling in love" she stated.

Kid nodded in agreement.

After that Soul was literally turning as red as ever!

"We are not love-birds!" he yelled.

Maka nodded this time.

"Yeah! Soul and I don't have any feelings for each other whatsoever!" Maka stated.

But Kid and Tsubaki laughed.

Well, all until Tsubaki fell.

The group stopped as they gasped. They looked behind her and saw Stein, with a scalpel in his hand, grinning.

"Tsubaki, get up" Kid ordered.

Tsubaki tried but she fell back down.

She winced in pain.

"I-I think I sprained my ankle" she mumbled.

Stein smirked as he walked closer to the group.

Meanwhile, the group was panicking!

But Tsubaki still kept her smile.

"Go on guys. It's okay if you leave me" she said as she gave them a nod.

The group looked at each other but then shook their heads.

"We're not leaving you Tsubaki. Your are friend, if you get dissected, we will too. We're your team, we'll follow and trust you no matter what" Maka said.

Stein approached the teens then.

The team was shaking a bit.

Stein crouched down to Tsubaki.

Tsubaki let a tear go down.

"Leave her alone" Soul started as he crossed his arms, "Cool guys like me don't let uncool guys touch cool girls" Soul said as he glared.

Stein let out a chuckle and then pet Tsubaki's head.

The team was now dead-confused.

"Huh? W-What are you doing!?" they asked.

Stein got up then and smiled. Not an evil smile, not a mischievous smile, nor a crazy one. No. This one was actually sincere.

"You guys really care for Tsubaki, don't you" Stein asked.

The team nodded slowly.

Stein nodded this time and then sighed.

"Well that's good then. It's good because now you passed this challenge. Sadly though, Blair and Tsubaki are not moving on. Blair was left behind though it was her fault. On the other hand, Tsubaki is going to the medical aid on this camp. She'll be treated well so she can't continue" Stein stated and then smirked.

"The rest of you, are moving on"


Team 2, Arachne's Group.

"One night, there was a teenage girl, and a teenage boy" Arachne started as she closed her eyes slowly.

"They were a couple you see. Everybody loved them together because they were...perrrfeectt" Arachne paused and then opened her eyes.

"Too bad they didn't last" Arachne smiled evilly then and giggled a bit.

Liz was shaking a bit as she had her eyes wide.

Meanwhile, Kim had her eyes wide as well but had her mouth open in amazement.

"The couple went to this place, exactly. They were arguing. Now, the couple was not a perfect couple like you guys think. The girl always controlled everything. She wanted everything her way. So, everytime they were alone, she always started a fight" Arachne then leaned in the girls faces and whispered.

"But this time, it got physical"

"ARACHNE! STOP!" Liz yelled as she rubbed her hands on her arms. Liz felt goosebumps come on.

Arachne smirked and put her fan down.

"The girl and the boy were walking, right here. Of course the girl started arguing as usual but what she didn't know is that the guy had brought a few friends-"

"Didn't the guy take off her head with a bat?" somebody spoke up, startling the girls.

Even Arachne jumped a bit.

They looked at the person who spoked up.

It was Stein.

The girls eyes went wide.

Meanwhile, Stein smirked.

"A-Arachne" Kim stuttered "I-I don't think t-this is g-going to end w-well"

Arachne nodded slowly and then smirked a bit.

"Take them" she said as she pushed, Liz and Kim to Stein.

Then, she started to run off.

"Hey! Don't leave us out here with him!" Liz yelled.

But before they could run after Arachne, Stein took them.

Confessional

Arachne was sitting down on the toilet as she looked at her nails.

"I wouldn't have left them but...I didn't want to lose"

Medusa And Free

"Did you hear that?" Free asked breaking the silence.

Medusa smirked as she chuckled a bit.

"Of course I did. I'm glad that I wasn't stupid enough. Arachne of course probably made it out alive. After all, she is my sister. We'll do anything to survive" Medusa stated and then froze.

Free raised a brow as he walked up to Medusa. He put a hand on her shoulder.

"What's wrong?" he said.

Though Medusa kept looking ahead.

Then she spoke.

"Do you love me?" she asked.

Free's eyes went wide once he heard that. Should he lie or tell the truth?

"I-I" he stuttered but got cut off.

Just then, Stein appeared with a scalpel in his hand.

"Now who will I dissect?" he said as he smirked.

Medusa frowned but then instantly smirked.

She moved quickly as she pushed Free towards Stein. Then she ran off into the night. But before she did, she put her hood up.

Stein smirked as he took Free.

The game was over.


"Hello Campers! The game is now over so the rest of the survivors please come to the deck" Lord Death yelled.

The rest of the team went quickly to the deck.

Once they were there, Lord Death examined them.

"Our campers that survived are, Maka Albarn, Soul Evans, Death The Kid, Arachne and Medusa Gorgon" Lord Death announced and then frowned.

"You guys will be moving on but, the next time, we will have an elimination! Also, it will not be another trust challenge! Viewers deserve some entertainment! Also, for the next part of the challenge, you will not work in teams but by yourself. Oh, and before I finish my speech, Blair, Free, Kim, Liz and Tsubaki! You guys are out! Stein, please release the losers!"

Stein smirked as he showed the losers. Some were angry and some were upset. But Tsubaki was the one who always smiled. Even though it was more like a sad smile.

"Anyways! We will have Stein here for a couple of days! Don't care if you like him or not! People love him. Until next time, on Total Death Island!"
