I'm really excited about doing this one, to be honest.
I hope you are too!
Chris' introduction: "Last time on Total Drama Everything, the two teams got into some glorious wintertime fun with a snow-digging contest, along with the best snowball fight I've ever seen. It was awesome! Things certainly were crazy, like when shy rocker Lammy was defended from Nom Nom's taunts. By a Green Ogre! Nice job, Yusei. Snake showed himself to be quite the gentleman by taking a black eye for fellow spy Sam. And the Green Ogres were finally sick of Stan's constant blabbing about his tourist trap and sent him flying with a bang. Will any of us go to his Mystery Shack? I doubt it. Will Nom Nom's alliance find a way to eliminate their new targets, the spies and Yusei? Find out right here! On Total! Drama! Everything!"
*theme song*
It had been two days since Stan was eliminated. Everyone had been simply relaxing. Everyone, of course, except Nom Nom's alliance. They were too busy plotting to sit still for one second. At the moment, they were going over some information they acquired about their new targets.
"Just where did you get those files, Deadpool?" Mandy asked.
Deadpool just laughed. "Don't ask. I just know people."
Nom Nom started looking through the three files; the files of Sam, Snake, and Yusei. The first one he looked through was Sam's folder. "It says here she lives in Beverly Hills, California. Useless information. An agency called WOOHP? Never heard of it. Most of her weapons are designed after products any teenage girl would use. So how do we-are you guys still listening?"
Mandy and Deadpool had gotten into an argument over who was allowed to read the next folder, and were now beating each other up. They stopped abruptly when they heard Nom Nom talking over them, although Mandy socked Deadpool one more time in the face. "Sorry," said Deadpool.
Mandy looked over at Sam's folder. "We have the info, so let's get them."
"Not right now," Nom Nom told her, shaking his head, "we're going to wait." That got Mandy frustrated. "We have the files! We could send them off right now, if we wanted to. Why put it off?"
"It will allow us a lot less dirty work," Nom Nom replied, "and here's why. We've been surrounded by suspicion ever since we brought down that candy princess. We'll have to wait until we're assured that I-uh, we, are unstoppable. Then we strike at those three so fast, they'll be blasted out of here before they know what happened."
He looked straight at Deadpool and Mandy, as if he were expecting them to agree. Finally, Deadpool eagerly nodded his head, and Mandy simply sighed. "Fine."
0000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000
"Besides," said Nom Nom, "who says we're not going to let the spies and the duelist off scot-free? We'll find ways to weaken them. My only regret is that this isn't being shown on the internet. It would increase my already huge fanbase ten-fold."
0000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000
At the dock, Lammy was holding her guitar, trying to practice a chord she was working on. "Dang it," she huffed, "is it really that hard to do this?"
Suddenly, she heard the familiar sound of a shoe hitting wood. Scared out of her mind, she swung her guitar, ready to hit someone with ill intent in the head.
However, she paused at the last second when she saw who it was. And it certain wasn't a face of ill intent. It was the exact opposite. It was a face of fear of being hit by a guitar, with that same yellow marking.
"Yusei!"
The poor duelist stepped away from the guitar that was three inches from his head. He seemed completely spooked.
"Sorry," Lammy quickly told him, "I thought you were Chef or something, and I got scared."
Yusei looked at her, surprised by that comment. "You were scared? I was just a split second away from a concussion, and you were the scared one?" Then he paused for a second. "Then again, I guess it was my fault, in a way. I should've said something."
Lammy decided to try and keep calm. "It's fine. Good thing, too. I probably would've destroyed the guitar. If it WERE Chef, it would be worth it." Both began to laugh, before Lammy remembered something. "Hey, I never said thanks for helping me during the snowball fight. I appreciate it."
"It was nothing," replied Yusei, "I don't like it when people are being jerks like that. I've had plenty of experience with those." Lammy smiled at him. "I can see that. But jerks like Nom Nom usually have me running the other way."
"I think you actually do have the confidence to get past him," Yusei said to the lamb, "you just need to use it." Lammy smiled again, hiding a hint of blush.
That moment was interrupted by a loud noise of stuff being thrown around a room. "What was that?" Lammy asked.
"It sounds like it came from my cabin," said Yusei.
Both headed straight from the Ogre cabin, followed by the rest of the competitors.
0000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000
(1 minute before noise was heard)
Shrek had just gotten back from taking a shower (he had been forced to take one by his teammates), muttering something about them explaining how to use soap. At least he had his 6" by 4" picture of Fiona to help him cope with this newfound cleanliness, and-wait…..
Where did the picture go? It was there, at his bunk, taped to the wall! Worried, he started searching the cabin.
By the time the other competitors had arrived at the cabin to investigate the noise, the cabin was a total mess. "Uh, Shrek?" asked Double D.
"I can't find it," Shrek whispered, breathlessly, "Fiona's picture's missing."
Though Nom Nom had said earlier that no one knew each other that well, everyone certainly knew Shrek, and that Fiona happened to be his wife. So it wasn't too startling that Shrek would worry if the picture was gone. What they were worried about was where it had gone.
"Wait," said Connie, "where's Double D?" He was the only competitor who wasn't in the cabin.
Five seconds later, Double D came into the room, completely exhausted due to running the whole way. Instead of the usual hat on his head, though, there was an actual sock.
After he managed to catch his breath, he noticed the others staring at him. "It would be polite if you didn't stare at me in that manner, thank you. If you're wondering why I have an actual sock this time, my usual headwear has gone missing and-hey is someone going to clean this up? Messy, messy, messy."
"So both Double D's hat and Shrek's picture are missing," Zelda inquired, "quite the coincidence."
"We should probably check the cabins to make sure no other items are missing," Superman told everyone, "because I don't really think this is a coincidence at all."
"Wait," Double D asked, "is anyone going to clean up this mess? I'm serious!"
Everyone searched the cabins, like Superman had suggested. And sure enough, there were more things missing. Within ten minutes, it was revealed that Nom Nom's camera (he snuck it in), Yusei's Sonic Chick card, Dante's favorite gun, one of Deadpool's comic books (of himself), Sam's Laser Nail File, Snake's knife, one of Lammy's guitar picks, Zelda's Light Bow, Mandy's miniature version of Billy (so she could beat it up), and Rarity's brush, had all disappeared as well.
"My brush! My brush! How am I supposed to look beautiful without it?"
Needless to say, everyone was freaking out. Suddenly, Chris sounded on the intercom.
"I would love to hear you guys worry about some worthless items. Seriously, it's very entertaining. Ha ha! But meet at the amphitheater for your next challenge. And if you're wondering, we were able to salvage the stage when the original island was destroyed."
0000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000
Everyone was looking left and right when they got to the seats, expecting the missing items to turn up out of nowhere. All they got was Chris coming onto the stage.
"We're bringing back another classic from the original season. This one was known as the Talent competition! However, we do have one difference."
"Which is?" Dante asked him, nonchalantly.
"Funny you should ask, demon boy," Chris continued, "because this time, you are ALL going to have to perform!"
That started a whole wave of protests from most of the group. Dante was swearing black and blue (all censored), Maya was groaning, and poor Lammy almost fainted. Of course, that did nothing to bother Chris or make him change his mind.
"Don't worry, though. If you don't have a talent of your own, you can help someone else with their talent. For example, if Zelda were to do a magic show, someone from her team could be her assistant. The catch is you can't team up with someone on the opposite team. Also, you are allowed to call in one special item from home to use for your talent. We don't care what the item is, as long as it's only one item. Any questions?"
Everyone raised their hands.
"No questions then? Good. You have until performance time at sunset to get your talents ready. Now move it, before I have Chef come in with a chainsaw!"
Chef Hatchet came barreling through with a chainsaw, and everyone immediately scattered.
000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000
"Why, why, why?" asked Lammy, banging her head on the wall.
0000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000
"Talent competition!" exclaimed Deadpool, "Pay close attention to my talent, TheMasterKat. I'll be pulling off the dangerous stuff.
(You do realize that since I'm the one writing this story, you really have no say in what talent I depict you doing, right?)
"Whatever. Just make sure I do something awesome."
0000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000
"I have the best idea ever!" shouted Dante.
0000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000
"That magic show thing is actually in my mind now," said Zelda.
0000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000
"Time to protect my place as the Cutest Animal on the Internet," said Nom Nom.
0000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000
"Why do I have the feeling something wrong's about to happen?" asked Maya.
0000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000
"I saw Lammy's face after the challenge announcement," said Yusei, "I should see what's wrong."
0000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000
Everyone started developing and working on their talents. Deadpool was gathering several blocks of wood, all of different sizes, and was going through them with measuring tape, all the while singing, "La la la la la," to himself. Sam and Snake were preparing a talent using Snake's gun.
Double D, who had decided to assist Goku and his talent, was watching Shrek take some breathing exercises.
"May I ask what the breathing exercises are for?" Double D asked the ogre.
"It's a warm-up for my talent," Shrek explained, "has anyone found the missin' items yet?" Double D shook his head.
Meanwhile, Nom Nom's alliance was sitting near the wood that Deadpool was measuring. And he seemed pretty engrossed in it, too.
"Why are you measuring all that wood?" Mandy asked the mercenary.
"It's for my talent."
"You've measured each block five times each now!"
"I want to make sure the measurements are correct."
Nom Nom rolled his eyes. "So what are you doing, Mandy?"
"None of your business," Mandy replied.
"You three really seem to hang out a lot, do you?"
All three, startled by the voice, turned to see Maya standing before them, looking quite curious.
"Well, yeah," Deadpool explained, "why would friends not hang out together?"
0000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000
"I really thought he would blow it, to be honest," Nom Nom said, "he's not as dumb as he looks."
0000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000
Both Mandy and Nom Nom nodded at that remark. Thank you, Wade.
Maya didn't exactly look as if she sort of believed it, but she slowly nodded in agreement. "Ok, but there are a few things that make me wonder."
Nom Nom raised his head at her. "Hmm?"
"It's the circumstances of Princess Bubblegum's departure," Maya began, "Mandy was seen right next to Goku right before he snapped. Everyone knew Goku had promised that he wouldn't try and eat her. And Goku has always been a man of his word. Right before Mandy was with him, I say you, Nom Nom, making sort of a head gesture. You were facing her, and you motioned your head towards Goku.
"Then, with Deadpool on the chopping block, Bubblegum quits all of a sudden, saying you told her it was best. And considering you're friends with Deadpool, that makes me ask one question: is this trio really just a friendship?"
All three were looking pretty nervous right now. Even Mandy. "How would you know, channeler?"
"Remember that my friend/boss is an attorney," Maya explained, "and I'm a channeler. Those give me precise knowledge of law, as well as a way of solving crimes." All three alliance members were astonished.
"I've got my eye on all of you." And she walked away from them.
Deadpool was now scared to death. "She's onto us. I should've known there would be someone who could figure that much out so quickly. What are we going to do? If she fully finds out, we can all kiss the million dollars goodbye because we'll be untrustworthy enough that we'll be lucky to not get shot out of that cannon at the same time and-uh why are you laughing?"
Nom Nom was laughing menacingly. "Because I know where we have to put our contraband now."
0000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000
"Are you sure about this?" Yusei asked Dante, who had just told him the idea he came up with earlier.
Dante nodded. "Absolutely," he said, "in fact, I already asked Chris to bring them both to the island. This will blow everyone's minds."
After a moment, Yusei nodded. "Let's do it. But I need to take care of a little something first."
He started looking around the camp, until he finally found what the source of the sounds from earlier were (he had heard them just before Dante's briefing. It was coming from the Cute Koala cabin girls side.
Lammy was curled up on her bed, a nervous wreck. By her side was Coco, who appeared to be trying to comfort her friend, with little success. Next to Coco was Lammy's guitar.
"Is something wrong?" Yusei asked Coco.
"Cocococococo," the imaginary friend replied.
Yusei was surprised. "She's too scared to do the talent show? Why?"
"I can't go out there," Lammy said, hurriedly, "I can't go out there in front of a crowd who could vote me off if I mess up. I just can't do it. Why did I even decide to do this show in the first place?"
Both Ogres were fully worried about this Koala who had become their friend. Finally, Yusei had an idea.
"When I heard you play by the docks earlier today, you were really good," he told the lamb, "I don't think I've ever heard someone shred on guitar as well as you." Coco nodded in agreement. Lammy, however, continued to freak out. "Both of you are just saying that to make me feel better. If I go out there, I'm going to mess up."
"We meant every word of it," Yusei told her, "and you know that. Believe me, I've had my share of being scared to do something. Once, after a duel with an old friend that ended with me eating a lot of dirt, I was scared that I didn't have what it takes to duel again. Eventually, though, I got over it. It took some time, and some words from my childhood nanny, but I realized that I couldn't live in the past. I couldn't afford to be scared. And you can't either."
Suddenly, Toph came in and "saw" (I have no other way to describe it; give me better ideas in the reviews) the three of them. "Oh, was I intruding?" she asked them. Lammy, Coco, and Yusei all said, "No." Toph nodded and left.
"Believe me," Yusei continued, "it's ok to be scared, but at times we need to stop worrying and just do it. For you, all that means is rocking out and having fun. You can do that, right?" Lammy thought for a moment, and slowly nodded.
"Good. Now I need to go get my talent ready. Good luck tonight, Lammy. I know you'll do well." With those words, Yusei left the cabin.
Coco stared back at Lammy and grinned mischievously to her friend. "Cocococo," she said in a teasing tone.
"I already told you I don't have a crush on him," Lammy protested.
0000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000
"Cocococococo (She totally likes him.)" said Coco.
0000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000
"Welcome to Total Drama's Got Talent!" Chris yelled on stage to everyone, who was already sitting down.
"We have gotten word of everyone's talents, as well as single and group performances. All names have been placed in this bucket right here." He held up a red bucket for everyone to see. "We'll draw names before every performance to decide who goes next. Their performance will be rated by Chef, but instead of the spoon rating from the first season, he'll simply rate it on a scale of 1 to 10. The highest score wins it for their team. Is everybody ready? Heck, I don't care if you're ready, so let's get this started."
He stuck his hand into the bucket and dug through until he pulled a name out. After a pause, he made the announcement.
"Our first performer tonight is…...Coco!"
Everyone clapped as Coco climbed onto the stage. Her talent would involve no props. In fact, all she did was sit down as soon as she was in front of them. Everyone was wondering what she was doing until…..
She jumped up, and in her place was a colorful egg. Immediately, it popped open and revealed a teddy bear. Everyone stared in awe.
"How did you do that?" Connie asked her. "Cocococococococococococo," Coco replied.
"You can lay anything?" Deadpool asked, "Can you lay an action figure of me?" Coco rolled her eyes and granted his request, then bowed to everyone and got a decent applause.
Chris came up and clapped his hands. "Not bad. A bit more of a body attribute than a talent, but Chef's impressed. He has given you a 6.5. Now get off my stage." Coco bowed again and went to sit with her teammates.
After the excitement of the first talent died down, Chris drew another name out of the bucket. "Our next talent will be performed by…...Goku, assisted by Double D." Both Koalas climbed to the stage, Double D looking the more nervous.
"Double D has agreed to help me in a little rendition of William Tell," Goku announced, "Why he had the sudden will to volunteer is beneath me, but whatever. Double D will have the apple on his head, and I will use one small energy blast to destroy the apple. Don't try this at home, kids."
Double D took his stance, ready for the blast, but everyone saw him shaking with fear. Goku got his position ready and aimed. Both closed their eyes, and Goku fired.
Bullseye. Right on the apple, which was obliterated completely. Goku and Double D opened their eyes and sighed in relief.
"That was ok," Chris said, "but Double D was scared as heck, and you both closed your eyes right before Goku shot that blast. You guys get a 6. Not bad, but not good enough to beat Coco's 6.5. It's time for our next competitor." Another name came out of the bucket. "And….Deadpool, our awesomest,coolest, hottest guy around. Wait, something's wrong. I never say stuff like that!"
(Me: Deadpool, I thought we agreed you wouldn't change anything on the story! Ugh!)
Deadpool was now laughing at what Chris had said. "I just tweaked the dialogue, TheMasterKat," he said, still laughing, "I felt it could use a little fine tuning." (I roll my eyes. Nuthead.)
Chris was fuming now, considering Deadpool had broken the fourth wall again. "Just...get on the stage," he seethed.
Deadpool stopped laughing and did what Chris told him. Then he went backstage, coming out 30 seconds later with a huge block of wood. "I want to show all how good of a sculptor I can be," he told everyone. He pulled out his katana swords and started hacking at the wood. Splinters went everywhere, and most people were hit in the face. 5 minutes later, the smoke cloud cleared, and there was a life-size wooden statue of Deadpool, doing a battle pose, but everyone could see a crazed grin through the mask.
"A little narcissist," Chris told him, "but that was pretty good. 7.5 out of 10. You just put the Cute Koalas in the lead." Deadpool jumped out and down with glee at the news. "Eeeeeh!" Then Chris, annoyed, pushed him off the stage. "Our next performer is…..Shrek!"
Shrek climbed onto the stage and took a deep breath, until…..
(Remember the huge roar in the fourth Shrek movie?)
"RRRRRRRRRRRRRROOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAARRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR!"
The sheer force of that roar sent everyone skidding at least a foot. Even Superman. By the time he was done, everyone looked like they were caught in a tornado. Of course, messed up hair led to a very unhappy Rarity.
0000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000
"I HAD to lose my brush," Rarity said, "and now my hair is more ruined than it's been in a while. I need my brush back."
0000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000
"That was incredible," Chris muttered, still in shock, "8 out of 10. The Green Ogres are in the lead again. Time to draw another unlucky person. Oh my gosh, that was loud."
Chris went back to the bucket and drew another slip of paper. "Next up…...Mandy."
The thing is, when Mandy walked to the center of the stage, she just stood there, and looked entirely bored. Chris was now entirely agitated. "Hey Mandy," he yelled, "we're waiting."
Mandy looked Chris dead in the eye. "I don't do talent shows," she told him, "GOT THAT?!"
The poor host was left shaking with fear. "Uh, I have word from Chef. You're now tied with your teammate. 8 out of 10. Now let's move on before I wet my pants." Another paper and….. "Toph, get up there fast."
Toph went backstage and came out with a block of metal. "Deadpool already showed you a statue, but I thought I'd do one too, but take it up a notch." She started pounding at the metal and shaping it, until she had a finished product: another statue, this one being of Toph herself. She had the pose from Earth Rumble VI. Everyone clapped.
Chris seemed impressed by this other work of art. "I've never seen anyone create a statue out of metal with their bare hands. That was very creative, too. Still a little narcissist. 8.2 out of 10. Koalas are back on top. Let's move on."
The challenge continued with more acts. Zelda and Connie did a magic show, but Connie freaked out about being sawed in half, and almost didn't do it, resulting in the duo only getting a 6. Julie did a tennis racket version of Hacky Sac, and she scored a 7. Mega Man started throwing around ceratanium disks until he was juggling ten, and then shot them all with his Mega Buster. He got an 8.
Next up, Sam threw some baseballs up into the air while Snake shot them. He didn't miss a single one. The accuracy got their act another 8. Rarity used her horn magic to beautify her look. It did the trick, and even fixed her hair. (So why would she need a hairbrush?) She scored a good 7.8. Maya was next, using her channeling skills to talk to the ghost of Benjamin Franklin. Chef gave her a 6.5. So far, no one had beaten Toph's statue.
That is, until Superman lifted the entire stage. That impressed everyone, even Mandy.
"8.7 out of 10," Chris announced, "and you brought the Green Ogres back on top. Only five people left to suffer."
The bucket was now almost empty. Chris grabbed a name and read it.
"Lammy."
At the sound of her name, Lammy, who had been talking with Coco, completely froze up. She was steps away from a performance that could make or break her. Suddenly, she felt a hand on her shoulder.
"Yusei?"
"You can do this," he told her, "I know it."
Knowing that he believed in her, Lammy nodded and walked up to the stage with her guitar.
"Uh, hi," she said to everyone, "I'm going to do the guitar accompaniment for 'Welcome to the Jungle' by Gun n' Roses. Enjoy gulp."
For a split second, she thought about running for the hills. However, she saw both Yusei and Coco, and looked down at her guitar.
Her whole life, Lammy had been nothing without her guitar.
Now there were two people whom she also would be nothing without.
Especially Yusei.
Encouraged by this, she plugged her guitar to the amplifier, turned on the special CD she had made for this, and began to play.
She had the notes down, luckily for her. And she was rocking it.
Everyone couldn't believe their ears. Lammy was good. Really good. They were now surprised that she had gotten stage fright in the first place. The whole group started dancing to the song, including those who really couldn't dance. They were loving it!
When the song was over, a loud applause echoed through the area as Lammy bowed. She even got a standing ovation, mostly from her team. Chris quieted everyone down so he could announce the score.
"That was one of the best guitar performances I've ever heard," he said, "and you surprised Chef big time. He has given you a 9.1. You have brought the Koalas up. Can the final acts respond? Let's find out."
Lammy ran off the stage and to her teammates, who were screaming to her about how amazing her performance was. She took a break from the excitement to find Yusei, who was part of the standing ovation.
"What did I tell you?" he asked her, "I do believe I was right."
Both of them laughed. "Thank you," said Lammy. Yusei nodded. "So do you think I'll have the same success?"
"Whatever you're doing," Lammy whispered, "good luck."
Unfortunately for them, their little chat was seen by Nom Nom.
0000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000
"Sign of weakness," Nom Nom scoffed, "consorting with the enemy."
0000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000
He grabbed another slip of paper. "Our next performer is…...Nom Nom!"
Nom Nom nodded as he walked up to the stage. "Prepare to get some sunglasses, everybody," he said.
Then he started doing his cutest look ever. Everyone was mesmerized by the level of cuteness. However, no one was really impressed.
"As cute as that was," said the host, "I don't think cuteness counts as a talent. Chef agrees with that. 4 out of 10."
At that announcement, the koala bear went ballistic. "I'm one of the most popular figures on the Internet, and I won't be insulted!" He started yelling at everyone. It got so loud that Goku had to drag him to the cabin so he would shut up.
"On that note," Chris announced, "we're down to both Yusei and Dante of the Green Ogres. Both are doing their talent together. They need a 9.2. or higher to beat Lammy and win for their team. Are you both ready?"
Yusei and Dante both nodded, but instead of walking to the stage, they went to either side of the area. Everyone noticed that Yusei was holding a familiar-looking helmet.
Everyone turned their attention to two ramps, one on either side of the stage. Both were about the size of ramps you would see at a motorcycle stunt show.
0000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000
"Why am I not surprised?" asked Mandy, "Dante has his own motorcycle from the second Devil May Cry. And Yusei has that red Duel Runner from his show. Two motorcycles plus two riders equals a lot of fun."
0000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000
The two Ogres used their wheels and rode up to either ramp. To top it all off, there was an awesome classic rock song playing in the background. After a few seconds, both teammates rode up the ramps at top speed. Then everyone caught a glimpse of glimmer on Yusei's side. He just had to bring out Stardust Dragon.
Dante fired several bullets into the air and hovered them with his telekinetic abilities, clearly for some special effects. As they drove off the tops of the ramps, it appeared as though they were going to crash into each other. However, they flew right past each other, and the bullets collided with Stardust. The result was a huge, explosive spectacle as both riders safely landed on their opposite sides. It was finally over, and their applause was about the same as Lammy's.
"Chef loved it!" Chris yelled, "9.5 out of 10! He would've given you a 10, but he kinda hates Dante." The demon hunter just shrugged.
"That doesn't matter, though. The winners of Total Drama's Got Talent are Yusei and Dante. And that means the Green Ogres win!"
The Ogres cheered at the news, while the Koalas looked about ready to explode.
"Cute Koalas, it was close. But one of you has to kiss your fortune goodbye. See you at the bonfire."
0000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000
"I know it's kinda weird that the person who encouraged me to do my talent just so happened to have won the challenge," said Lammy, "but how can I be mad? I would've never faced my fear if not for Yusei. So that's more than enough for me right now."
0000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000
Nom Nom came into the girls side of the Koala cabin. "I need to borrow something of yours," he told Maya as he searched around her stuff. The first place he looked was under her bed. That was simply to check that his contraband was still there. It was, sure enough, under her bed. And after he freaked out earlier, he was almost a shoo in to go home if he didn't use this now.
"Hey, what's this?" he asked, pulling out the bag. Under the guise of curiosity, he opened it and checked what was inside. "Wait a minute," he muttered as he pulled out something. It was his camera!
The rest of the girls couldn't believe their eyes? What was Nom Nom's camera doing under Maya's bed? Toph ran over to the bag and pulled out Sam's Laser Nail File. "What was that doing in there?" Sam asked Maya.
Nom Nom looked back at the bag. "Oh Ogres!"
Everyone went to the mess hall to check the rest of the bag's contents. They found every missing item in it.
"This is my Sonic Chick!" Yusei exclaimed.
Rarity found her hairbrush inside. "Maya, how could you?" Maya just sat in disbelief at what was unfolding.
Shrek found his picture of Fiona and kissed it. "Who would've thought Maya was willin' ta be a little thief?"
0000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000
"Last night," said Nom Nom, "I had Deadpool go around and steal the items. I figured that if we were going to lose today, I could frame a threat and send them packing. Maya's a perfect fit. The minute she became suspicious of my actions, I knew it was her we had to frame. Mission accomplished.
0000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000
"Double D's hat was the hardest to steal," admitted Deadpool, "he wears it all the time, even asleep. It's a bummer it was completely dark when I grabbed it. I would've loved to see what that hat is hiding."
0000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000
"You're nothing but a criminal, are you?" Nom Nom accusingly asked Maya, "has that attorney friend of your taught you nothing?"
Maya shook her head. "You all have it wrong. I didn't steal anything!"
"Tell it to the judge," said Nom Nom, "thief." Everyone left the room, leaving Maya standing there, stunned.
0000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000
When it was time for the ceremony, everyone looked straight at Maya and glared at her. Chris came in with the marshmallows.
"13 unlucky Koalas, and one of you is REALLY unlucky. When I call your name, come and claim your marshmallow.
"Lammy."
"Goku."
"Mega Man."
"Deadpool."
"Toph."
"Double D."
"Sam."
"Snake."
"And Rarity."
The final two were Nom Nom and Maya, for obvious reasons.
"A captain and a channeler. One of you is about to leave for good. Maya, you were found to be in the possession of items that had been missing all day, suggesting you stole them. Nom Nom, you did the worst in the talent competition and went ballistic. But who's more of a burden?"
"The final marshmallow goes to….."
"..."
"..."
"..."
"..."
"..."
"...Nom Nom."
Nom Nom walked calmly to the marshmallow, giving Maya a glance that spoke one thing. He had won.
"I still claim to be innocent," Maya told her team as she walked to the cannon, "but now I'm sure there's someone on this team responsible for the theft. And I know who it is. However, I will leave that to the rest of you. I hope you all can sleep well tonight, knowing you just eliminated someone who didn't do anything."
Without another word, she hopped into the cannon and was blasted into the air.
0000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000
"My plan was successful," said Nom Nom, "but my job's not done yet."
0000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000
"We got out a potential threat," said Mandy, "are you sure we should wait to take on the spies and that duelist?"
The gray koala bear replied, "Yes. Until they lose all support. However, it gave me the idea for a new task in mind."
"Deadpool, you know that Mandy's our Green Ogre connection. That, however, isn't enough. I need you to befriend someone on their team. We could use the ally. And when they are no longer needed, I'll stab them in the back so hard that they'll wish they had stayed home."
The mercenary jumped right at the task. "Who should I stab?"
"I hope you know it was a figure of speech," Nom Nom told him, "but I already have the perfect person in mind."
And he gave Deadpool Julie's profile.
0000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000
Everyone had talent, didn't they?
Nom Nom removes Maya from the game in a case worthy of Phoenix Wright. He's turning into quite the mastermind.
At least Lammy was able to rock out with help from Yusei. Could that friendship be something more?
And that final talent! That was awesome!
Remember to read and review! And bring in challenge ideas! Next time, we'll see Deadpool slay a horrible dragon and rescue a princess. Then watch as he becomes an all-powerful god-wait a second-Deadpool! You messed with the outro too?! Ugh!
Deadpool: TheMasterKat out! (runs)
(sigh) What he said.
