Korpse's Earrings: Green Koopa Shells
It's time to start up the Truancy Challenge!
Wild Slakoth appeared!
Chris is on the beach, ready to give out the intro to the episode. "Last time, on Geeks Vs. Populars..."
"Our teams had to take on various random phobias. While some teammates managed to show off their bravery, others bailed out very quick. And some of them also panicked. In the end, it came down to Nelson and Korpse. And despite Nelson's determination, Korpse came out the winner. And at the Campfire, Yentoulis pulled out a move, which kept him on the island, and Yolei was sent hurling."
"So, what will today's challenge bring? Will the Geeks accept this new GENKI? What secret does Verna hold? What other TV shows will Sting reference? And who will be voted off? Find out this time, on..."
"Total!"
"Drama!"
"GEEKS VS. POPULARS!"
(Cue I Wanna Be Famous)
Giggling Gryphons
Ellis was sitting at camp, doing some thinking. While he was happy he got to stay, he was confused underneath.
"Why would they keep me on?" Ellis asked. "I mean, all I did after Yolei got eliminated was hide underneath my shell... Mostly from Yento taunting me."
Ellis kept on thinking, as Moana came up to him.
"Ellis, you been out there for an hour now..." Moana commented. "What's going on?"
"Nothing... Except why I was kept instead of Yolei." Ellis answered. "I mean, she's a bloody martial artist. All I do is lie. Lie, lie, and lie... I guess I wanted the attention."
Moana looked like she understood that. "Wow... I know how you feel. My brother's girlfriend used to feel that way, until he came into her life..."
Moana then did some thinking, and realized something.
"Ellis, sorry if this is personal, but... You got any siblings?" Moana asked.
Ellis sighed. "...Yeah. I do. Or in fact... did."
"Wait, did?" Moana asked, interested.
"Yeah. However, she wasn't nice to me... at ALL. She was very mean, spiteful, ruined my birthdays and Christmases..." Ellis answered. "And soon came the day... One I will never forget..."
"What happened?" Moana asked.
"I got framed for something I didn't commit." Ellis said, sighing. "And at the end of the day... I got kicked out of the family... I was disowned."
"Yeah, that happens from time to time..." Moana replied until she realized what Ellis ACTUALLY said. "Wait... You got DISOWNED?!"
"Yeah... It all happened one day. Mom and Dad left big sis in charge while doing some shopping on Christmas Eve, and I was gaming at the time. She grabbed up a extremely valuable and rare vase containing my deceased great-grandma's ashes, and threw it on the ground. She even took pics and posted it under my profile. When they saw what happened, I tried to talk my way outta it, but... At the end, I was booted out of the house..." Ellis said, finishing his story.
Moana was horrified. "Ellis... That was horrible for them to do that!"
"It got worse; all my friends ditched me, I was trolled on Facebook..." Ellis said, close to tears, but he quickly wiped them off. "But things did get better. My new family moved away from the area, I was able to make a new Facebook account... I even made some new friends in my new school."
Moana smiled. "At least you got a new family. Someone who cares for you, no matter what you are."
Ellis smiled back. "Thanks for the talk, Moana. I needed it."
Hey, it's what a big sis is for, not... Whoever SHE was." Moana replied back.
Yentoulis was busy with GENKI, to an extent.
"GENKI, your performance so far was... Abysmal." Yentoulis said out loud.
"I am sorry, Master Yentoulis." GENKI replied back. "I shall not mess up again."
"I am not sure why I built you, but... You better shape up, or you shall be shipped... To the scrap yard." Yentoulis concluded.
GENKI gulped, or as close to a robot can get, as...
"Hey!"
Mozart came running towards Yentoulis, with a glare in his eyes, and holding the lazy nerd up with his Bo staff. Even Woodstock wasn't looking very happy.
"Well, if it isn't the barefoot stoner." Yentoulis said in a bored tone. "Smoke up all your stash?"
"I saw what you were doing. You were calling out on your invention!" Mozart yelled out loud, ignoring Yentoulis' insult. "Thats BEYOND bogus in my books!"
"Look, you freak with a rat. I do what I want with MY robot, and that's final." Yentoulis replied back.
Mozart sighed, as he let Yentoulis go. But not before...
"Look, if you dare harm GENKI in any way..." Mozart said, as he left Yentoulis alone.
With Benny and Cherri, Benny was polishing his sword, while Cherri was looking at a moth that got on an electric light that Mozart set up earlier.
"Cool, its a Plutella xylostella, also known as a Diamondback Moth!" Cherri exclaimed out loud with a grin.
Benny smiled, as he sheathed his sword. "Wow, you're a really huge fan of bugs." He said out loud. "And I'm becoming quite the fan, as well."
"Glad to hear it." Cherri replied.
"So, how did you become a fan of bugs, anyway?" Benny asked, with interest. "Many girls I know don't like bugs. You, however, ADORE them."
"That, I do!" Cherri sheepishly grinned. "Well, I figured I should share you. You shared your sword story, so it's only fair. I was around 5 years old at the time, and my kindergarten class was having a picnic outside. I dropped a swiss roll by accident, and I started to go after it, when some ants started to lift it. It was a HUGE line of ants. They eventually went away, along with my snack. Oddly enough, I wasn't angry at the ants for stealing my sweet, but rather fascinated at them. Or course, the teacher was worried I ran off like that, but when she saw I was interested in the line of ants, she couldn't be mad at me."
"Very cool." Benny said, smiling.
"And after that, I checked out a bug book from the library. Sure, I was still a newb at reading, but the pictures were wicked cool. Eventually, bugs became my passion." Cherri replied, finishing her story.
"Cool..." Benny said, grinning.
"Hey, If I'm making progress, I'm glad." Cherri replied with a grin.
Nelson and Marissa were in the cabin, talking about stuff.
"So... Marissa?" Nelson asked. "I gotta ask something. What's with all of this stat talk? I know about Attack, Defense, Speed, and all that doo-dah from Pokemon."
Marissa giggled, as she shuffled her glasses around. "Someone's never played D&D before... Well, you have your basics like Strength, Dexterity, Constitution, Intelligence, Wisdom, Charisma..."
Nelson was puzzled. "Strength? Well, count me out. I'm not the strongest of the bunch."
"Well, I see you more of a Mage type character, myself." Marissa said, smiling. "One with a lotta Constitution and Intelligence, at that."
"And what's Constitution? It involves writing a John Hancock, does it?" Nelson asked.
Marissa giggled again. "No, silly. It just involves how much Health you have. In regular RPG terms, your HP."
"Like Blissey, one of my favorite Pokemon that my sis likes using?" Nelson asked.
"Exactly!" Marissa said, grinning. "Though I'm more of a casual fan, to be honest."
Nelson smiled. "You know, you'll make someone very lucky someday."
Marissa could only blush at that. "Yeah, maybe..."
Sting was currently watching the ocean waves, and singing a song... Or was in the middle of one. Someone was watching him sing, though.
The Cannon Is Cruddy, The Fanon Is more Lovely
Cause Total Drama Island is About To Start!
They're Geeky and Nerdy; They're Beth and Cody!
Duncan has a Record, Amy is a Pain!
"Um... Hi, Sting." Olivia said, walking up to Sting.
"Oh, Hi, Olivia!" Sting commented. "I'm just making a song parody of a classic cartoon."
"Ooh, which one?" Olivia asked.
"Just Tiny Toon Adventures. One of my mom's faves growing up." Sting replied, smiling, as Fang spun around next to Sting and fell asleep next to his legs.
"So... Can I ask you something?" Olivia asked.
"Shoot." Sting replied, smiling.
"Can you... stop hanging with Moana? People like her? You two don't fit well with each other." Olivia said out loud. "Besides, she's got blue hair."
"But... Moana's my friend." Sting replied out loud. "And I got blue highlights."
"She's just playing you like a fool. I seen her hanging with that Ellis." Olivia said out loud.
"Well, maybe she just went to give Ellis some advice." Sting replied. "No harm done."
Olivia sighed. "Well... You may be right... Also, one more thing."
"Okay." Sting replied.
"Can... You take off your shirt, again?" Olivia asked. "I couldn't get a good look during the challenge."
Sting was confused. "Er, why do you wanna see me without a shirt?"
"Because, I think shirtless guys are hot!" Olivia exclaimed.
"Okay... I guess?" Sting shrugged, and removed his hoodie. He then removed his undershirt, as he exposed his bare upper body to Olivia.
Olivia was staring at it, as she grinned and fainted, as Sting looked at the now fainted Olivia (With a nosebleed) in concern and blinked.
"She fainted... She would think I have abs, and several tattoos on my arms or something..." Sting commented to himself. "I only have a normal body, to boot."
Ron was outside, looking at the campers, as Xantara walked up to him.
"Hey, Ron... Feeling right as rain?" Xantara asked.
"Er, maybe?" Ron replied.
"Well, just wanted to talk to you a little." Xantara said, as she sat next to Ron. "I'm just curious as to what made you mad to begin with..."
"Mad about what?" Ron asked.
"Well, I just wanna see how and why you're mad to start up with." Xantara said.
"Well... My parents always bring home some containers containing certain stuff to make... Um... illegal substances." Ron said out loud.
"Wait, illegal substances?" Xantara asked.
"Yeah... It's best that I don't get into the details of it right now. Maybe someday, I will?" Ron asked.
Xantara smiled. "Whatever you say, Ron."
Xantara then got up and took her leave, as Ron smiled slightly.
Confessional: Guess someone's opening up...
Ron: Xantara never gives up trying to cheer me up... I kinda like that about her.
Sting: Never thought my body would make someone faint. And it's just a normal body... Olivia is sorta strange...
Mozart: Despite what everyone says, I am totes NOT a stoner. Drugs just totally wreck your craft, man. I am drug free and PROUD to be, brah.
Ellis: That… was nuts. But, I feel like I got a big monkey off my back after confessing that to Moana. Hopefully the others will be just as nice... I know Marissa will be, but how about the others...
Moana: Poor Ellis... I'm starting to think that's why he lies... He doesn't want his trust to be broken...
Cherri: I usually don't share this, but... I still have my childhood toy, Corporal Centipede.
Powerhungry Polar Bears
Drake, Stella, and Korpse were still talking to each other.
"So, with your preferred name being called ScoreKorpse..." Drake stated. "I'm thinking you're a gamer, right?"
"You betchya!" Korpse said, grinning. "I'm a fan of nearly all genres, excluding CoD. F that S."
"When did fish become associated with gaming?" Stella asked.
"Not exactly." Korpse answered, as she turned towards Drake. "So, Drake? What kinda games do you play?"
"Nothing, really..." Drake commented. "Just the Harvest Moon series... It's really calming, in a way."
"Harvest Moon?" Stella asked. "You harvest moon pies?"
Korpse chuckled. "Nah... It's actually a farming sim. It's a LOT better than it sounds. It's also a love sim, where you can get married and have kids!"
Stella smiled. "Really? What kinda boys are there?"
"Err... I kinda find you with Toby, to be honest." Korpse said, as Drake nodded in agreement.
"I'll... take your word for it." Stella replied, as she turned towards Drake. "So, Drake? What... Um, girl do you like in Harvest Moon?"
"Um... Popuri from the 64 game. For later games, Sabrina from Sunshine Islands and Maya from Tree of Tranquility could count..." Drake commented.
"Cool..." Stella commented.
Meanwhile, Nicholas was talking with Ada and Kade.
"Wow, you're really adapting really quick to the party culture, bud!" Ada said, grinning.
"Yeah, when we started, you looked like a pretty studious person." Kade also said, smiling.
"Thanks, guys." Nicholas replied.
"Now, how about we... Turn it up to 11?" Ada said, grinning.
"Like Rolling Stone?" Kade asked. "Or is it Aerosmith?"
"Er... All of the above?" Ada replied. "Now... Turn on the Noisestorm!"
"OKAY!" Kade shouted out in glee, as she turned it towards that artist.
The force from the music made Nicholas wide-eyed, but he kept steady. In a moment, he grinned.
"This stuff... is AWESOME!" Nicholas shouted out loud. "Got any more?"
"In fact, we do!" Ada said, looking at Kade. "Kade? Hit Nick up with... Kill The Noise."
If this was an actual episode, cue a record needle scratch.
Kade was nervous. "K-K-Kill The Noise? Are you sure he's ready for this?"
"Hey, I feel he's Ready for Freddy at this point." Ada replied, grinning.
"Okay, if you say so..." Kade said, as she pressed some buttons and...
The force of the music from Kill The Noise caused Nick to faint off the log he was sitting on.
Ada was shocked. "NICK! Aww, Kade, we should have knew he wasn't ready yet!"
"Oops." Kade said out loud.
"So, how will we explain this to the three inside our cabin, that we knocked out our teammate?" Ada asked.
"I dunno..." Kade replied back, as Nicholas was getting up from his musical ordeal.
"Ugh... What happened?" Nicholas asked, scratching his head.
"We accidentally knocked you out with our music... Again." Ada replied.
Nicholas smiled. "Strangely enough... I liked it!"
All Ada and Kade could do was give a fist bump to each other.
Meanwhile, Heidi was doing a bit of fishing for the team.
"Come on, Heidi! You've got a fruitful fish in your grasp!" Grace cheered out loud. "Come on..."
"RAAAUUUGGGHHH!" Heidi yelled out loud, as she reeled in, with all her might, a lovely huge fish.
"Awesome!" Grace cheered out in glee.
Heidi chuckled. "Thanks for the suggestion of using a piece of watermelon as bait.
The duo walked over to Thunder and Twiggy, who was cooking up a meal over their campfire.
"Whoa, you two got a huge one..." Twiggy said, grinning. "This'll keep the team well fed for quite a while!"
The cooking duo then cooked the fish, and soon after, they were eating their meal.
"Well, there's some for the team to eat, once they get hungry enough." Grace commented.
"So... what is there to talk about?" Thunder asked.
"Um, football?" Heidi asked, to which Thunder groaned. "Was it something I said?"
"Sorry, just hearing that word makes me gag..." Thunder said out loud. "I know I play football, but the players on my team... Let's just say the art room had to be replaced."
"Jeez, what DID they do?" Grace asked.
"I... rather not say..." Thunder said out loud.
Outside, Verna was laying down, and rubbing on her plushie.
"For something that's often ignored... You're one awesome dude..." Verna said to the Maractus plushie, ignoring the footsteps that's coming towards her. Just then...
"A-HA!" Steph shouted out loud, surprising Verna. "You're RUBBING on that plushie, are you?!"
"Um..." Verna replied.
"Don't you know that stuff is nerdy?! You're a TRUE disgrace to your kind!" Steph shouted out loud.
"I liked it because..." Verna tried to reason with Steph, but...
"But, what?" Steph said, as she thought of something. "No... You know, I think I saw something similar to that plushie in a window from our shopping spree earlier today."
Verna mentally facepalmed. "Sh*t... How could I have missed that?"
"You know, maybe I won't reveal your secret to the world... If you listen to all my instructions." Steph ordered. "I say jump, you say how high. I say lob a fruit at one of the Geek's kiwis, you do so. I say vote off a friend, you DAMN better do so... Cause if you mess this up... Your secret is exposed to the world... For EVERYONE to hear."
Verna gulped.
"We clear?" Steph asked, glaring at Verna.
Verna couldn't help but sigh.
"Yeah, Steph... We're clear."
"Good. Now, first thing in the morning? Get rid of that stupid doll. It's creeping me out." Steph replied, as she walked away from Verna, leaving Verna shocked.
Confessional: Uh-Oh...
Verna: -She is sad- Fine... I admit... I'm a huge... Pokemon fan. Been one since I was in 5th grade. But I kept it hidden thanks to it not being cool in school... I don't wanna be sent down to the bottom of the Popularity ladder... -She then looks at the Maractus plushie and starts sobbing into it-
Steph: AHAHAHAHA! I found my first secret to exploit! Although, I'm surprised it came from Verna of all people. Still... This is gonna be fun!
During the middle of the night in the Popular's cabin, everyone was sleeping... Almost everyone.
"Perfect..." Steph whispered out to herself, as she crawled outta bed and snuck over to Verna's bag. Carefully unzipping it, and taking out a flashlight, she started to inspect the bag.
"Hmm... Come to mama..." Steph whispered, as she took out the fake Twilight book. Putting the flashlight in her mouth, she opened it, and saw, not 3 lip balm containers, but a Pikachu-themed 3DS.
"The frick is this ugly yahoo?" Steph asked, as she inspected the 3DS. "Is this... a handheld?"
She then got the idea of pressing down on where the game card was inserted, and it ejected itself. She took out the card, and read it to herself.
"...Pokemon X? Verna's a... Pokemon fan?" Steph asked, as she quickly reinserted the card back in, and grabbed up a small bag. Reaching inside it, she saw multiple game cards.
"Pokemon Y, Omega Ruby, Alpha Sapphire?" Steph commented to herself. "And Animal Crossing: New Leaf?"
She then grabbed a strategy guide from the bag. "Pokedex?"
Steph eyed the Maractus, and flipped through the pages to see that Verna's plushie... WAS a Maractus.
"So... The seeds have been sewn." Steph said, as she grinned evilly as she closed the book, and started to rearrange everything back, as...
"Yawwwwnnn..."
Steph was alarmed, as she started to see who was yawning. She shined her flashlight on Drake, who was sitting up and looking VERY sleepy.
"No, Karen... I don't want a drink..." Drake said out loud in a VERY tired tone.
Steph smirked at Drake, as she was in thought. "Yeah, that's right, you stud muffin, going into bars, dating multiple girls... You're bad..."
Drake soon plopped back down and promptly fell back asleep. Steph then snuck back to her bed-cushion, covered up, and grinned.
"Now I know your FULL secret..." Steph whispered to herself. "This is gonna be fun..."
Confessional: This can only end well...
Steph: You know, I might as well get a boyfriend while I'm on here. Drake's suitable enough. He's a bad boy, he drinks, he dates multiple girls... He's like he's ripped off from a hot romance novel!
Drake: ...Did I talk in my sleep, again?
Meanwhile, with the Geeks, everyone was sleeping as well. Someone was having a dream, as well...
Nelson was running through a forest, as a very familiar tree came popping up.
"Whispy Woods?" Nelson asked himself, as he held onto a Yo-Yo. "Okay...I dealt with you several times before. This bout'll just be the same."
Nelson did some quick handiwork on the overgrown tree with a face. However, instead of it going sad like it usually does, it instead erupted in anger, a giant seed. Once it hit the ground, it quickly sprouted into another Whispy Woods. Pretty soon, the two were tag teaming Nelson.
"Ow! Ouch!" Nelson yelled out in pain. "When did Whispy Woods become so violent?"
Nelson was on his knees, as the two Whispy Woods were about to finish Nelson off. Just then...
…
…
...What appeared to be a Cutter Blade came flying from a random direction, nailing one of the Whispy Woods between the eyes.
Nelson looked behind him to see Korpse, holding some Cutter Blades and glaring at the two trees.
"How about we... Take care of these two together?" Korpse asked, as she grasped Nelson's hand, and the two went on the offensive against the two Whispy Woods. Once the two trees were defeated, Korpse grinned.
"Now, how about we check outta these woods? I saw your destination in the air." Korpse said, as she produced a Warp Star. Both of the teens got on the star, as they started to make their way back to what appeared to be a floating fortress.
"Hey, I'm picking up some radio chatter..." Nelson commented, as he turned the volume up.
"Nelson is flying back towards us!" One of the soldiers on the fortress said out loud. "And he's brought company!"
"The main cannon's ready. Should we blast them?" Another soldier asked.
"All right. VAPORIZE THEM!" Yet another soldier yelled out loud, as a rather large shot was shot at by the fortress' cannon.
Korpse couldn't dodge in time, as her Warp Star was hit by the blast...
Nelson woke up in a flash, as he mentally clicked his fingers in frustration.
"Dang it... Not again..." Nelson said to himself. "I could have gotten him this time, too..."
"Gotten who?" Xantara asked, who was sitting indian-style on her sleeping bag.
"Eh, nobody that you would understand, Xanny." Nelson answered. "Just promise me that if any trees start crying, hug them."
Xantara smiled back and saluted. "It shall be my duty, Nel!"
In a forest path, Nelson was currently looking for some food. While they had some from winning the Food Fight contest the other day, they wanted to keep fully stocked just in case.
"It's a shame my blade on my hat's not real..." Nelson said to himself. "I could reach for the super-high fruit from up top. That's where the super-juicy fruit's at."
Just then, he heard some footsteps.
"Xantara, that you?" Nelson asked, as he turned around to see Verna, darting her eyes back and forth. "Er, Verna?"
"Um, you a gamer?" Verna asked.
Nelson smiled. "Well, or course I—OOF!" Nelson said, as he was accidentally knocked down.
"Take it, it's yours!" Verna cried out, as she ran off.
"Um, take what?" Nelson asked, as he looked at what Verna gave him... "Why did she give me a Maractus plushie, just now?"
At the Geek's Camp, they were discussing on why Verna would just up and give Nelson a plushie.
"Gee, this is kinda odd." Mozart said out loud. "Why would Verna, someone who's totes rules over her school with an iron fist, just up and give you and a Maractus?"
"I dunno." Nelson replied. "Still, how much sense does this make?"
"About as much sense as figuring out a Death Battle against Monokuma VS Teddie?" Sting said out loud. "Everyone knows that Teddie would win."
"Yeah, Teddie kicks MAJOR ass once you get him in your party." Marissa commented.
"Agreed." Olivia stated, as the intercom came on.
"Everyone, get ready for your next challenge!" Chris said out loud.
"Well, guess its challenge time." Moana replied. "Let me feed Fang real quick."
"Same with Woodstock!" Mozart also commented.
"Lets see what kinda insane crap we're gonna go through today." Marissa said out loud.
At the same time, over at the Popular's Camp...
"So..." Twiggy said, as both she and Thunder were looking at the clouds. "...Ever had a crush on any of the cheerleaders on your squad?"
Thunder looked a bit sad. "...As a matter of fact... Yeah."
Twiggy looked at Thunder. "So... How that go?"
"I... rather not go into the details..." Thunder replied. "Just promise me that you'll NEVER listen to Bieber."
"Done and done right." Twiggy said out loud, as the Intercom came on.
"Everyone, get ready for your next challenge!" Chris said out loud.
"Well, let's do this!" Twiggy shouted out loud, as she got up. Holding a hand out to Thunder, he accepted it as he got up. Twiggy pulled her hand back, as she turned her back from Thunder with a blush on her face.
The Campers were waiting on Chris to explain the challenge. Currently, the beach was barren.
"Somehow, I question how Chris is able to deconstruct previous challenges without making much noise." Grace commented.
"Ninja construction equipment, I guess?" Mozart asked, shrugging.
"Eh, they're better than Pirate construction equipment." Korpse said, giggling, as Chris came onto the scene.
"Campers! Welcome to your next challenge! As you can tell, Yolei was voted out." Chris commented. "Shame, too. She had a story about a scar under her eye... Anyways, on to the challenge! Sometimes, when you're in school, you just get so bored, you just wanna sneak outta class."
"I bet Sting does LOTS of times!" Olivia said out loud.
"What, I do not!" Sting commented back.
"Anyways, your challenge? Escape from school. Yep, that's it." Chris said out loud. "You can try to withstand class, but what would be the fun in that?"
Ellis looked a bit worried. "Really? Are you hinting at something?"
"Nope!" Chris replied. "However, you can see that the Island is currently barren, right now."
"Yeah, we can tell that." Ron said right back.
"That's why we're going to a special location for our Challenge!" Chris shouted out loud, as a helicopter came flying down onto the island. "So, board said helicopter and prepare yourselves for an awesome challenge!"
The flight to the location was uneventful. Even after the helicopter landed, and they boarded a bus, they could see that they were headed towards a small town.
"Campers! Welcome to the town of Poutine Shores!" Chris said out loud. "Its a quaint little place, and the town has volunteered to use the town as location for today's challenge!"
"You did say that our objective was to withstand or escape from class, right?" Thunder asked, as Chris nodded. "How do we do that?"
"Easy, Thunder. Those questions will come in due time. Now, I'll give the teams some directions. The Populars will have to go to Mr. Johnson's English Class."
Drake smiled. "At least I can write something nice..."
"As for the Geeks, you'll have to report to the Gym for your part of the Challenge."
Nelson gulped. "Oh, dear... I'm gonna be the target of dodgeball..."
Chris chuckled. "Not exactly, Nelson. All will be exposed soon enough..."
Powerhungry Polar Bears
The Populars were in the class, waiting for class to start. Some students were in class at the moment, most of them playing around a bit.
"Aww, English Class?" Grace said out loud. "This is so... Boring!"
"Yeah... Curse this suckage of a class!" Heidi also said out loud, pulling on her pigtails a bit.
"Eh, it isn't so bad." Nicholas replied back. "Drake seems to be taking it very well."
Drake was just drawing away, with some students watching him draw.
"No worries, Drake. Its English Class, one of your best subjects. This should be easy..." Drake thought.
"And I can sneak in a game or two." Korpse said to herself, as she opened up her 3DS. "Wow... Lots of Streetpasses."
Verna mentally cursed at herself. "Damn... If Steph didn't ruin my fun last night..."
"Whatever the case, why do we gotta sneak outta class?" Stella asked, as Mr. Johnson, the English teacher came in. The students and the team paid attention.
"Okay, class. Today is the day of the English Essay." Mr. Johnson said out loud. "Which means... Lots of research."
Drake looked up. "Aw, crap...Oh, well. At least I can be a bit creative, right?"
"You'll be doing research on historical facts... And NO CREATIVE WRITING." Johnson commented.
Drake's face said it all. "Awww... F*ck."
Confessional: Well. This... escalated quickly.
Drake: Research writing's... Not my forte... And I can't do any creative writing? ...Can this get any worse?
Verna: I suck at research... Especially school research... And with Steph on my back...
"So... What old, dead geezer are we gonna write about?" Kade asked, grinning.
"It's not a who, but a when." Johnson said out loud. "Today, you'll be writing all about... Tudor, England, the 16th century, to be exact. Yep, back when King Henry the 8th was in charge."
Ada did some reading in a History book about King Henry the 8th, and turned as green as her hair. "Ugh, Kade? Nick? Remind me to NOT invite this jerk to any parties."
Nicholas nodded in agreement. "Done. I mean, look at what he's done throughout his reign..."
Stella looked at her history book too, and was shocked. "That royal jerk exiled her DAUGHTER, all because she was a girl?"
Even Steph was sickened. "Ugh, this is... Just sick and wrong."
"Yeah, Steph?" Verna asked. "What's so sick and wrong?"
"The dork... cut off his wives heads if they screwed up even ONCE." Steph said out loud. "Even I wouldn't resort to that!"
The color in Verna's body drained in an instant.
Confessional: Even Evil Has Standards, folks!
Verna: Jeepers, the dude's WORSE than Paul from the Diamond and Pearl anime! At least Paul doesn't cleave his released Mon's heads off with a frickin' AXE!
Drake was having a tad bit of a headache, as he was trying his best to write something.
"Ugh... This is completely..." Drake said in a soft whisper.
"I seen enough." Korpse replied out loud. "Dude is worse than Ghetsis back in 5th Gen. Let's bust outta here."
Drake seemed a bit shocked. "Really? Won't we get in trouble?"
Stella smiled at Drake. "Trust me, we won't get in trouble. Besides, look at the teacher."
Currently, Mr. Johnson was asleep at his desk, with drool coming outta his mouth.
"We have the perfect opportunity to bust outta here, and I know you don't want anything to do with this King Henry jerk." Stella reassured Drake, as Steph looked at Stella with an angry look.
Confessional: Escape From The City... Would it fit here?
Steph: Ugh, that Stella is getting close to Drake! Her and her friendly attitude doesn't deserve someone bad as Drake!
Drake: I dunno about playing Hooky... That seems rather mean.
Grace was doing some writing, until finally... "I seen enough as well. I'm outtie." She said, as she got up, snuck past a sleeping Mr. Johnson, and stood at the door, and motioned the team to follow.
The team saw that motion, as they started to get up from their seats, keeping quiet so Mr. Johnson wouldn't wake up.
"I still think this is mean..." Drake said out loud.
"Well, Chris did say that you could withstand the class." Stella commented. "Maybe try that? We can meet up later."
Stella then started to leave class, as Drake was by his lonesome.
"Okay... I can do this..." Drake said to himself, as a familiar song was heard. It was the SpongeBob Squarepants theme. A student pulled out his tablet and started to watch the show.
"Oh, boy... Someone's not working. They'll get busted..." Drake said to himself, as he glanced at the screen to see what the episode title was. His expression took a direction to the frightened. "Aw, no... Not The Splinter..."
"So, I like this crap." The student snapped back at Drake. "What are you gonna do about it?"
Drake looked at the paper again, and shrugged, as he wrote a few words on it, and snuck outta the room.
"King Henry the 8th was a Poopiehead?" The student read his paper out loud.
Confessional: Wow, that was really bold.
Drake: Yeah, I've seen enough toons that were bad enough for me to cringe, and sometimes cry. The Splinter from SpongeBob was one of them, with another... It motivated me to try to create good, wholesome cartoons for kids. Cartoons that are GOOD, with a GOOD message within them. And it looks like I have a purpose of being on this show, now.
Drake caught up with the others, as Steph smiled.
"Glad for you to catch up with us." Steph said, grinning.
"Shush, if we're going stealth-like... We gotta do this right." Grace whispered out loud. "Now, follow my lead."
The Campers did that, as they sidled through the halls.
"So... Is this getting anywhere?" Twiggy asked out loud.
"Just about." Heidi replied out loud. "We just gotta sneak close to the exit, and run like hell."
The team continued to do so, as some sounds was heard.
"Aw, s**t! The fire alarm!" Thunder yelled out.
"Sneaking, smeaking! Let's bolt!" Grace said out loud, as the team started to run for the exit, and eventually exiting the school.
"Okay, we're out." Korpse commented. "Now what?"
"Simple. We RUN." Grace said out loud. "Run for the HILLS."
"Good plan." Nicholas replied, grinning.
Giggling Gryphons
In the Gym, the Geeks were waiting for their fate. The Gym was decorated like a Guest Speaker was about to talk.
"Well, at least we won't be doing anything involving sports." Marissa said out loud.
"So, what are they gonna talk about?" Ron asked.
"Who knows..." Sting replied out loud. "Besides them?"
"Yeah, we already know to say no to drugs." Olivia commented. "Quit shoving it down our throats, Nancy Reagan!"
"Er, is she, like, dead?" Moana asked.
"I dunno..." Mozart replied out loud. "Wish they would tell us what our guest is. Waiting is BOGUS, dudes."
"You and ME both." Nelson said as well. "Two words can take gamers out like us into some sadness."
"What are they?" Xantara asked.
"Game Delay." Nelson replied, as he shivered.
Confessional: Enough to send a forum into a panic.
Nelson: We wanna understand if a game's taking long, but at least tell us WHY. And let's not mention the year Animal Crossing was a no-show at a E3...
Soon enough, the Guest Speaker came to the Podium.
"Good Morning, class. Today, I am here to tell you a very important message." The Guest Speaker said out loud.
"Say no to drugs, stay in school, and all that doo-dah..." Benny said to himself.
"If it's about the importance of washing your hands after washing your hands, that only happened once!" Cherri complained.
"It's about the importance of stretching before exercise." The Guest Speaker said out loud, as he started to explain a lotta stuff.
"Ugh, this stuff's so boring." Ron whispered out loud.
"I mean, YAWN." Yentoulis also commented.
"Yeah, it is true." Mozart replied to his team. "But he doesn't have to shove it down our throats, like those bogus TV preachers every Sunday morning."
"We should make like a pill bug and roll outta here." Cherri said, as Nelson looked at the punk girl.
"Wait, you mean... Sneak out?" Nelson asked out loud.
"Yeah, I'm falling asleep listening to this baldy." Sting commented. "And I usually cheer at PEP RALLYS. Let's bail."
Olivia grinned. "Whoa, I've never thought you would be BAD."
"Come again?" Sting asked, as Olivia looked at Sting with a dreamy look. "Er, hello there?"
Olivia snapped back into attention. "Oh, yeah... I'm fine. Not like I care or anything."
"So, let's make like an invisibility cloak and fade away!" Marissa commented.
"Yeah, besides... It's not like we heard this stuff before." Xantara replied, sitting in a rather complicated sitting position, as the guest speaker continued.
"...Golf Slumber Parties? That's a thing?" Marissa asked.
"Apparently, so." Sting replied, blinking in confusion. "Can we just take the 1 stroke penalty instead?"
Confessional: FORE!
Moana: Like, I play Mario Golf with Wiley. The poor Cheep-Cheeps and Bloopers end up getting hit by my balls by accident. Sports aren't my thing... But no way there can be a slumber party involving actual golf... -Her eyes go wide- Can there?
Marissa: What's up with this school? They have a Guest Speaker talk about stretching, Golf Slumber Parties, and improving your... football swing? Does he have a logic stat of negative 5?
Back in the Gym, Moana sighed.
"Okay, this is getting ridiculous." Moana commented out loud. "Why would you wanna kick a BASEBALL?"
"I dunno, but we gotta bust outta this dungeon." Marissa replied back. "You guys got any ideas?"
"I dunno." Cherri commented. "Only time I played hooky was when that bug exhibit was in town..."
Everyone looked at Cherri.
"What? I was 12 at the time." Cherri replied back. "Plus, my teacher got sick, my class got a REALLY mean substitute that later got arrested for tax evasion at the end of the day, the lunch was meatloaf from some country that doesn't exist anymore..."
"Um... How does all of THAT work?" Ron asked.
"Beats me." Cherri shrugged. "Still, one of us should sneak outta the Gym. The joint's guarded TIGHT."
"Guys?" Ellis spoke up. "I shall do so. I've got an idea up my... Does t-shirt sleeves count?"
"I think so, dude." Mozart answered.
"Still... I rather not do it." Ellis commented. "I could get in a LOT of trouble."
"I'm sure they would understand, Ellis." Marissa said with a warm smile.
"Okay." Ellis replied. "I'm gonna do this..."
Ellis walked down the bleachers, and talked to the teacher. After doing a "potty dance", he was given permission to leave the gymnasium.
In the halls, Ellis did some sneaking around, all while trying to avoid any people that could spot him and send hi back into the gym. Once he was in the clear, he spotted his target: A fire alarm. He took a big breath and sighed.
"Well... Here goes nothing." Ellis whispered to himself. "God... Mom... Dad... Kurohi... Marissa... PLEASE forgive me for what I'm about to do..."
Ellis then pulled down the fire alarm...
Back in the Gym, the Guest Speaker continued.
"Perfect throwing techniques for tossing soccer balls? You kick them, ass-hat!" Benny said to the Guest Speaker in a low, inaudible voice.
"Makes more sense than kicking a hockey puck." Mozart commented, as some loud noises were heard, sending the Gym into a panic.
"Whoa, a fire!" Cherri said out loud. "You don't think Ellis lit a firecracker and flushed it down the toilet?"
"Personally, I find that to be what Sting would do." Olivia replied.
"What? No way!" Sting said out loud. "I would NEVER trash indoor plumbing!"
"If I ever did that, someone who I used to babysit with would tan my hide!" Moana replied back. "Dude has a PLUSHIE of a TOILET!"
"Whatever, the teachers are distracted." Marissa said, as she got up. "Let's roll a 5 and break free!"
The team ran down the bleachers, and out of the Gym, all without anyone spotting them leaving.
Now in the halls, they were looking around.
"Hey, where's Ellis?" Mozart asked. "Where is the little dude?"
"Psst! Over here!" A voice whispered out, as a hand wrapped up in a mitten was waving to them.
The team fastly walked over to where the hand was.
"Ellis?" Moana asked. "You did that?"
"Yeah, and that was NOT one of my proudest moments." Ellis said to the group. "Still, I think we should escape, and soon."
"Sounds good to me." Ron commented, as the team started to escape from the school, and away from their educational prison.
Chris was watching some monitors, with a grin.
"Whoa, never thought Ellis would do something so naughty!" Chris said with a grin. "But now that our teams have escaped from school... Can they withstand the next part of the challenge? Find out... After the break!"
From the security room, a man shrouded in shadow, was watching the teams escape.
"So, we got escapees..." The man said out loud. "No one plays hooky on my watch..."
He then pressed a button on a microphone. "Mrs. Gray? Administer the Truant Officers. Have them search every doghouse, henhouse, outhouse, malthouse, and dollhouse."
"Yes, sir." Mrs. Gray answered through the speakers.
"Good... Cause no one escapes from Poutine High... Without getting into trouble..." The man said to himself.
Whoa, things have taken a turn for the serious. Now the teams have Truant Officers after them! Can they survive?
NEXT TIME: It's all fun and games, until the Truant Officers attack.
