Total Drama Everything Chapter 14: Total Drama Idol!, a Cartoon X-overs + Total Drama series Crossover fanfic

Note that I don't own any of the songs that are in this chapter. Plus, a couple may have mild language.

Other than that, enjoy the show.

Chris' recap: "Last time on Total Drama Everything, the sixteen competitors traveled to the scary horror that is Boney Island, where they had a brutal fort struggle to find their treasures of me. Certain moments include Julie fighting her way through with a tennis racket and Shrek fighting Snake. However, the best conflict was Yusei and Nom Nom. Those two fought to the point where they wound up dangling from a piece of bridge, where Yusei risked his own life to try and keep Nom Nom from falling to his doom. Even though it was Superman who saved both their skins. That didn't do any good for the Man of Steel, as Nom Nom turned the tables on another elimination and sent the superhero packing. Oh, and Toph's now with Snake and his gang. Will there be more danger today? Probably not, because of an impending lawsuit. Either way, here's another thrilling episode of Total. Drama. Everything!"

*theme song*

Rarity was sitting in her bed in the Koala cabin. In her hands was a small device, and she appeared to be watching something on the screen, which showed several ponies in various colors.

(Two things to note: one, the good luck messages are shown in bold. And two, I didn't think about having multiple messages for one person. Each competitor will watch all of their messages, but only one each will actually be shown here.)

Rarity's message (submitted by sdgeek2003):

"Hey Rarity," Pinky Pie said while jumping up and down.

"How's the how going?" Sweetie Belle asked.

"It's actually been kind of lonely without yer here," Applejack said.

"We all hope you're coming back soon," Twilight Sparkle said.

"Wait," Rainbow Dash asked, "where's Flutter?"

They found Fluttershy cowering in her cabin, shivering.

end

The unicorn finished watching and smiled. "My friends are the sweetest in the world," she said. "Who's next?"

Toph raised her hand and the device was given to her. "Why is Chris letting us do this anyway?" Sam shrugged.

Everything went silent as Toph "watched" the video. This one showed two boys-teens and a girl.

Toph's message (submitted by Trouble Maker):

Aang: Toph, hey awesome work so far!

Katara: Yeah! I have been planning you to make it this far.

Sokka: Even Appa (I guess that's how to spell it) misses you.

Appa: *moans*

end

"Nice," Toph said.

Rarity peered at the screen. "Hey," she asked Toph, "why does that one guy have an arrow tattoo on his head?"

Toph just smiled. "It's a thing the people of his element do."

Lammy nodded in understanding. Those tats looked cool too.

Meanwhile on the boys' side of the cabin, Goku had found a note on top of a similar device next to the door.

"Messages from the homes of Goku, Deadpool, and Double D," he read as he walked in (Deadpool and Double D were already in there. "Who's first?"

"MEMEMEMEMEME!" Deadpool squealed as he grabbed the device. Then he turned to his message and began to watch the video, which had a muscular man with a metal arm and a woman with her face painted black and white.

Deadpool's message (submitted by Prince TigerMasters):

Cable: What the hell (excuse that) do you think you're doing? You just leave in the middle of a mission for some silly contest?!

Domino: Relax Cable, we can use the money and the mission was easy for one person. So good luck DP and bring home the money.

Cable: Just-just don't kill anyone.

end

Deadpool smiled as he handed the device to Goku. "Yep," he stated. "Same old Cable."

"The woman was Domino, right?" Double D asked him. He nodded. The Double D turned to Goku. "You can go next."

Goku switched the device to his message. A man with pointed black hair and a widow's peak showed up onscreen.

Goku's message (submitted by Guest):

Vegeta: Listen Kakarot, I will not have you lose to a pathetic rat such as Nom Nom, so be on your guard. Alright, now to switch to King Kai...Oh, not that one.

Bulma (offscreen): Did you make sure WiFi is connected?

Vegeta: Yes, I just need to find the right button.

Bulma: Blue one!

Vegeta: Oh, thank you (wait, Vegeta said that?).

It switches to a chubby short man with blue skin

King Kai: Listen Goku, I sense you need to train Double D for an upcoming horror. I know he's not the strongest, but even with Super Saiyan Blue, you won't be able to do it alone, and we'll need to be here for these people. So do as best as you can. And if you can't, just send him to me.

end

Goku handed the device to Double D, who looked a little embarassed by King Kai mentioning him and suggesting him for training. Goku rubbed his neck in apology.

"Let's see what my friends have to say," Double D said as he switched to his message. Onscreen were two boys. One was super tall and had a clueless expression on his face, and the other was short and greedy-looking.

Double D's message (submitted by Makeover name):

Eddy: HEY SOCKHEAD, congrats you made it further than the first episode.

Ed: Buttered….toast.

Eddy: Ed, get away from the camera. *sighs* Well, we can expect that if you win, you'll give US most of the money. I MEAN, THINK OF ALL THE JAWBREAKERS WE CAN BUY WITH ALL THAT MONEY! *starts drooling*

end

When Double D had finished, Deadpool started laughing his head off. "You have friends like that?" he asked Double D.

"Ha ha," Double D replied. "Granted, I have also questioned why I have those friends at times, but they're still my acquaintances."

Deadpool just shrugged and laid back on the wall next to his bed. He couldn't help but think of the messages he had just seen. Both Goku and Double D had people they could look to for help. That's one reason why he had Cable and Domino. Well, that and the fact that Cable could keep him in line.

He wondered what Cable and Domino would make of his friendship with Julie. And that it had ceased to be fake.

0000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000

"Maybe I should tell her the truth," Deadpool sighed. "Ugh, I can't."

0000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000

Mandy had found a similar device on her bed in the Ogre cabin. Deciding she had nothing better to do, she turned on the message. The video had a boy with a dopey expression and a baseball cap, as well as a skeleton in a black robe and carrying a scythe.

Mandy's message (submitted by sdgeek2003):

"How do you work this thing?" Billy asked.

"You press buttons, I suppose," Grim said. "Ah, here we go."

"Hey, Mandy!" Billy waved like a maniac.

"We definitely missed you," Grim said.

"Actually, we don't," Billy said.

"He's right, we don't," Grim laughed as the camera turned off.

end

Mandy threw the device to the side. "Remind me to give those two a pounding," she muttered to herself.

Then she looked out the window and spotted Lammy outside the mess hall, talking to Yusei. She noticed that Lammy had her guitar in hand. Then Mandy realized something she hadn't before. Lammy ALWAYS had the guitar with her. Suddenly, Mandy had an idea.

As for that conversation, both were talking about their previous lives and their possessions.

"If you think this place is bad," Yusei told the lamb, "try being evacuated as a baby from a massive energy explosion, living most of your life in a slum, being betrayed by your best friend, getting arrested, being tied to an ancient tradition, and nearly dying multiple times. Yeah, none of that was fun."

"At least you had your friends the whole time," Lammy responded. "I have my band, but I mostly look to my guitar for comfort. This thing is my pride and joy. It helps a lot when I feel nervous and stuff like that."

Yusei looked at the guitar for a moment. "You should teach me how to play one day," he said. "It would wow everyone back home."

Lammy smiled. "In exchange," she stated, "you teach me how to play that card game of yours."

"Deal." They shook hands and smiled at each other. In fact, they were about to kiss when they were interrupted.

"Yusei and Lammy, sitting in a tree," Nom Nom sang, "K-I-S-S-I-N-G!"

Luckily, he didn't finish the song because of the intercom. "Alrighty, competitors," Chris called. "Meet at the amphitheater in ten minutes. And make sure your voices are strong today."

0000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000

Sam and Snake arrived at the stage and sat down. "What do you think it is?" Sam asked her fellow spy, who just shrugged.

"Chris said to have our voices ready," Snake said. "Could be a horror challenge with a lot of screaming."

"Whatever it is," Sam added, "I hope you do wonderful." Both smiled at each other while Mandy was watching. "Pfft, pathetic."

When everyone arrived, Chris walked on to the stage, followed by Chef, who was holding a giant box full of slips of paper.

"Attention everybody," Chris started, "before we begin, did those who received messages from home enjoyed their loved ones' best wishes?"

Those who got messages nodded.

"Plus," Chris added, "this show now has a stack of lawsuits on its head after the lawyers agreed that the past two challenges were too life-threatening."

"I'll say!" Deadpool, Nom Nom, Julie, and Yusei all said in unison.

The host added, "So we're going to take things a little easy for a couple of rounds. Oh, don't worry. There will still be fun. A perfect example of today's challenge. This is a new addition to Total Drama. We're going to have a singing challenge!"

Everyone groaned.

Chris rolled his eyes at the lack of enthusiasm and continued. "Inside this box are thousands of songs. And we made sure not to repeat a song, so no two people will draw the same one. And whatever you draw, you will have to sing it. No exceptions. Everyone paying attention?" The competitors nodded (except Deadpool, of course, with Nom Nom slapping him to make him pay attention).

"With your song, you're also going to have to make a spectacle out of your performance. Make it interesting. You can use any means necessary. Be creative. Also, a small number of the slips in this box will be marked 'Singer's Choice'. If you draw that, you can choose the song. Your performance will be judged by the three of us."

Everyone started to get confused. "Wait," Shrek asked, "where's tha third one?"

"I'm glad you asked," Chris replied. Then he yelled to the side of the stage, "Come on out!"

Out from backstage came a very arrogant-looking girl. She had brown hair and freckles and was wearing a gray shirt with capris. She had the air of someone you didn't want to cross.

"No way," Toph said. "Is that Courtney?"

The girl smiled. "In the flesh," she responded to the earthbender. "Now Chris, remember not to go against our little deal."

Chris sighed, "I know."

"What deal?" Nom Nom demanded.

"It was either this," Chris told the group, "or she would go through with her lawsuit, again for lack of safety. You'll have to appeal to her, me, and Chef. Any questions?"

Everyone raised their hands.

"No questions?" Chris asked. "Good. Now come up to the stage and draw your song from the box."

Everyone lined up before Chef to grab a random slip of paper. Before Mandy was about to draw, Nom Nom tapped her shoulder to get her attention.

"Sabotage Yusei and Lammy," he told her. "Do whatever it takes."

Mandy nodded. "I already had the idea in mind."

Finally, everyone drew their songs (Toph was told what her slip said in her ear).

0000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000

"I'm not a singer," Yusei said. "Just to get that out of the way."

0000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000

Julie looked back on her paper. "I love this song."

0000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000

Double D repeatedly hit his head on the wall.

0000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000

"Kinda fitting," Mandy mused. "Except that it's a love song of sorts."

0000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000

"Why me?" Nom Nom said in frustration.

0000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000

Goku was beaming. "This is the best song ever!"

0000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000

"Oh I love Survivor," Toph said.

0000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000

"Cocococococococococococo (I'm ready to rock)," Coco yelled.

0000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000

"I know just what to do," Deadpool said with confidence.

0000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000

"More performing," Lammy nervously said. "Great."

0000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000

"Jackpot," Snake stated.

0000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000

Dante was air-guitaring.

0000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000

"This is for you, Fiona," Shrek stated.

0000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000

"I can finally bring out my opera talents!" Rarity squealed.

0000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000

"I don't think there's many people here who is known to sing," said Sam.

0000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000

"I hope these people know," Courtney stated, "that I won't go easy on them.

"After several seasons of being on this show myself, with moments including that jerk delinquent's betrayal, I'm ready to make sure these people don't forget who I am."

0000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000

"Where is it?" Lammy asked, panicking. "Where is it? Where is it?!"

She was looking all over camp. Yusei looked curious. "What's wrong?"

"My guitar's missing!" Lammy exclaimed. "I can't sing without that guitar. That thing's my confidence. Without it, I'm nothing! What am I going to do?!"

She was starting to hyperventilate again, but Yusei grabbed her. "Calm down, ok? I'll help you find it." Lammy nodded.

However, they spent an hour searching for the guitar, but to no avail. Lammy was freaking out. "I won't be able to go out there without my guitar. I can't do it."

"Well you don't need to worry," Yusei told her. "Guitar or no guitar, you'll be amazing. Besides, what did I say about worrying? There's nothing to worry about."

Though it was hard, Lammy believed him. "I got this."

Yusei smiled. "See? You can do this. Though we still need that guitar. I have to go through guitar lessons, don't I?"

"You were serious about that?" Lammy asked, now laughing.

The duelist laughed back. "Yes. Speaking of which, I hope you were serious about the card lessons."

Lammy nodded, and Yusei started.

"First, there are the Monster Cards…."

0000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000

"Why won't those two become a couple already?" asked Dante.

0000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000

"It's time to let you voices be the star of the show!" Chris announced a couple of hours later. "I hope you have your performance ready. We'll draw the order in which everyone goes." He held up a purple bucket (another one, yes) for everyone to see. "And yes, you will still have to go up there if you sing too high or too low for the song."

Then he pulled a name out of the bucket. "Our first singer of the night is…..Dante!"

Dante climbed up to the stage and faced the judges. In his hand was an impressive electric guitar. "What song are you performing tonight?" Courtney asked him.

"I drew 'Centuries' by Fall Out Boy," Dante replied.

The judges nodded. "Then get to it," Courtney said.

(Note: Simply follow the format for each song. It's the same for each. Also, many characters are using special effects, but it's painstaking to place them in accordance to the song. I imagine Dante using his guitar for electric affect.)

Dante: (quiet) Do do do do do do, do do do do do do do do do

Some legends are told

Some turn to dust or too gold

But you will remember me

Remember me, for centuries

And just one mistake

Is all it will take

We'll go down in history!

Remember me for centuries!

Mummified my teenage dreams

No, it's nothing wrong with me,

The kids are all wrong

The story's all off.

Heavy metal broke my heart

Come on, come on and let me in,

The bruises on your thighs, like my fingerprints

And this is for tonight,

The thoughts you said you felt,

I never meant for you to fix yourself.

Some legends are told

Some turn to dust or too gold

But you will remember me

Remember me, for centuries

And just one mistake

Is all it will take

We'll go down in history!

Remember me for centuries!

I can't stop til the whole world knows my name

Cause I was only born inside my dreams

Until you die for me,

As long as there's a light,

My shadow's over you

Cause I am the opposite of amnesia

And you're a cherry blossom,

You're about to bloom

You look so pretty, but you're gone so soon!

Some legends are told

Some turn to dust or too gold

But you will remember me

Remember me, for centuries

And just one mistake

Is all it will take

We'll go down in history!

Remember me for centuries!

We've been here forever,

And here's the frozen proof!

I could scream forever,

We are the poisoned youth!

Some legends are told

Some turn to dust or too gold

But you will remember me

Remember me, for centuries

And just one mistake

Is all it will take

We'll go down in history!

Remember me for centuries!

We'll go down in history!

Remember me for centuries!

Dante's performance was followed by a moderate-to-good applause. Both Chris and Chef nodded their heads in approval while Courtney just rolled her eyes.

"Not bad at all," Chris said to the demon hunter, while Chef gave a thumbs up in agreement. Courtney rolled her eyes again. "It wasn't that great," she said shortly.

Lammy started to giggle. "I think we found Simon," she whispered to her teammates. "I was hoping there would be another rock head here."

When Dante returned to his teammates, Chris returned to the bucket. "Next up on the drive," he announced, "is Julie!"

Julie ran to the stage amid several claps. "Rock on!" Deadpool cried out to her. She smiled at him before turning to the judges.

"I drew 'So Yesterday' by Hilary Duff," she explained, "and I won't have any special effects. Just me and the singing."

"Then sing," Courtney told her.

Julie: So yesterday

So yesterday

You can change your life

(If you wanna)

You can change your clothes

(If you wanna)

If you change your mind

Well that's the way it goes

But I'm gonna keep your jeans

And your old black hat

('Cause I wanna)

They look good on me

You're never gonna get them back

At least not today

Not today, not today

'Cause if it's over let it go and

Come tomorrow it will seem

So yesterday, so yesterday

I'm just a bird that's already flown away

Laugh it off, let it go and

When you wake up it will seem

So yesterday, so yesterday

Haven't you heard that I'm gonna be okay

You can say you're bored

(If you wanna)

You can act real tough

(If you wanna)

You could say you're torn

But I've heard enough

Thank you, you've made my mind up for me

When you started to ignore me

Do you see a single tear

It isn't gonna happen here

At least not today

Not today, not today

'Cause if it's over let it go and

Come tomorrow it will seem

So yesterday, so yesterday

I'm just a bird that's already flown away

Laugh it off, let it go and

When you wake up it will seem

So yesterday, so yesterday

Haven't you heard that I'm gonna be okay

If you're over me, I'm already over you

If it's all been done, what is left to do

How can you hang up if the line is dead

If you wanna walk, I'm a step ahead

If you're movin' on, I'm already gone

If the light is off, then it isn't on

At least not today

Not today, not today

'Cause if it's over let it go and

Come tomorrow it will seem

So yesterday, so yesterday

I'm just a bird that's already flown away

Laugh it off, let it go and

When you wake up it will seem

So yesterday, so yesterday

Haven't you heard

If it's over let it go and

Come tomorrow it will seem

So yesterday, so yesterday

I'm just a bird that's already flown away

Laugh it off, let it go and

When you wake up it will seem

So yesterday, so yesterday

Haven't you heard that I'm gonna be okay

Julie finished the last few notes, and the crowd cheered again. The most enthusiastic was Deadpool, who jumped up and down in excitement. "THAT WAS AWESOME!"

"You can shut up now," Chris called to him. "Julie, that was an ok performance." The other two judges nodded. "However, it does not beat Dante. You guys are on the same team though, so don't worry." Julie nodded and walked to her team.

"Next up is…." Courtney announced as she pulled a name out, "Rarity!"

The unicorn squealed as she climbed up to the stage. "I'm ready!" Rarity yelled. "I'm doing 'Yeah 3x' by Chris Brown! Whooo!"

Courtney covered up her ears. "Less talk," she said, "more sing."

(Quick heads up: Rarity's singing this with an opera voice. Chris Brown in opera. Ha!)

Rarity: 1, 2, 3, 4

Hey! Hey!

Forever

Hey! Hey!

Forever

It's you and me

Moving at the speed of light into eternity

Tonight is the night

To join me in the middle of ecstasy

Feel the melody and the rhythm of the music

Around you, around you

I'ma take you there, I'ma take you there

So don't be scared, I'm right here, ready?

We can go anywhere, go anywhere

But first, it's your chance, take my hand, come with me

It's like I waited my whole life for this one night

It's gon' be me, you and the dance floor

'Cause we only got one night

Double your pleasure, double your fun

And dance forever-ever-ever

Forever-ever-ever

Forever

(Forever)

Ever-ever-ever

Forever-ever-ever

Forever on the dance floor

Feels like were on another level

Feels like our love's intertwined

We can be two rebels

Breaking the rules, me and you, you and I

All you gotta do is watch me

Look what I can do with my feet

Baby, feel the beat inside

I'm driving, you could take the front seat

Just need you to trust me, oh oh oh

It's like now

It's like I waited my whole life for this one night

It's gon' be me, you and the dance floor

'Cause we only got one night

Double your pleasure, double your fun

And dance forever-ever-ever

Forever-ever-ever

Forever

(Forever)

Forever-ever-ever

Forever on the dance floor

It's a long way down, we so high off the ground

Sending for an angel to bring me your heart

Girl, where did you come from? Got me so undone

Gaze in your eyes got me saying

What a beautiful lady, no ifs, ands or maybes

I'm releasing my heart and it's feeling amazing

There's no one else that matters, you love me

And I won't let you fall girl, let you fall girl

I won't let you fall, let you fall, let you fall

Yeah yeah, yeah yeah

It's like I waited my whole life for this one night

It's gon' be me you and the dance floor

'Cause we only got one night

Double your pleasure, double your fun

And dance forever-ever-ever

Forever-ever-ever

Forever

(Forever)

Forever-ever-ever

Forever on the dance floor

Everyone just sat in shock as Rarity finished the song. Chris cleared his throat.

"I don't think this song is meant to be an opera song," he told her. "Just telling you now that Chris Brown doesn't do opera."

Chef shook his head. "You're not beating Dante," Courtney snipped.

0000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000

"No one respects opera these days," Rarity moaned. "Everyone back home would've liked it."

0000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000

"Dante's still in tha lead," Shrek said. "Fantastic."

0000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000

"Next up is Shrek!"

The ogre climbed onstage and faced the judges. "My song is 'Every Teardrop Is A Waterfall' by Coldplay."

All three judges nodded in approval. "Begin," Chris said.

Shrek: I turn the music up, I got my records on

I shut the world outside until the lights come on

Maybe the streets alight, maybe the trees are gone

I feel my heart start beating to my favorite song

And all the kids they dance, all the kids all night

Until Monday morning feels another life

I turn the music up, I'm on a roll this time

And heaven is in sight

I turn the music up, I got my records on

From underneath the rubble sing a rebel song

Don't want to see another generation drop

I'd rather be a comma than a full stop

Maybe I'm in the black, maybe I'm on my knees

Maybe I'm in the gap between the two trapezes

But my heart is beating and my pulses start

Cathedrals in my heart

And we saw, oh, this light, I swear you, emerge blinking into

To tell me it's alright, as we soar walls, every siren is a symphony

And every tear's a waterfall, is a waterfall, oh, is a waterfall,

Oh, is a, is a waterfall, every tear is a waterfall

Everyone sat as Shrek continued to sing. They didn't know what they expected, but it certainly wasn't this. Shrek was good. Really good. Especially for an ogre. Maybe there was truly more to this ogre than meets the eye.

So you can hurt, hurt me bad

But still I'll raise the flag

It was a waaaterfall

A waaaterfall

Every tear, every tear, every teardrop is a waterfall

...

Shrek's applause was the biggest yet, especially for his team. Everyone else was really impressed. Nom Nom sat there, stunned. Even Courtney smiled at the end.

"Now that was pretty good," Chris stated. The other two nodded. "It's official," Courtney announced. "Despite being on the same team, Shrek has overtaken Dante and is now in the lead!"

Dante rolled his eyes at this. "Whatever," he muttered. Shrek walked back to his team amid more cheers.

"It's not over yet," Chris added. "We still have eleven more songs to go through." Then he drew the next name from the bucket. "Our next singer is…..Double D!"

Double D froze up. "Oh no," he squeaked. "Do I have to?"

Chef got up to his seat and started dragging him to the stage. "You're more whiney than DJ was," he complained. "Now get up there."

The poor guy was sweating bullets. "I d-drew 'I Write Sins, Not Tragedies' by Panic at the D-Disco."

It took a few moments for everyone to process that. When they did, the whole area burst into laughter.

"This is going to be hilarious!" Chris cackled. "Ok, go ahead. Oh my."

(Note: I had to jump some hoops with this one, because while I wanted Double D's song to be ironic, this song is a little beyond the P-G rating. This will not have the words "whore" and "god". Other than that, everything goes. I feel so sorry for Double D.)

Double D: Oh, well imagine

As I'm pacing the pews in a church corridor

And I can't help but to hear

No, I can't help but to hear an exchanging of words

"What a beautiful wedding!

What a beautiful wedding!", says a bridesmaid to a waiter

"And yes, but what a shame, what a shame

The poor groom's bride is a shhh"

I chime in with a

"Haven't you people ever heard of closing a damn door?!"

No, it's much better to face these kinds of things

With a sense of poise and rationality

I chime in

"Haven't you people ever heard of closing a damn door?!"

No, it's much better to face these kinds of things

With a sense of

Well in fact

Well I'll look at it this way

I mean technically our marriage is saved

Well this calls for a toast, so pour the champagne

Oh! Well in fact

Well I'll look at it this way

I mean technically our marriage is saved

Well this calls for a toast, so pour the champagne

Pour the champagne

I chime in with a

"Haven't you people ever heard of closing a damn door?!"

No, it's much better to face these kinds of things

With a sense of poise and rationality

I chime in

"Haven't you people ever heard of closing a damn door?!"

No, it's much better to face these kinds of things

With a sense of poise and rationality

Somehow, Double D was managing to continue singing the song. However, everyone noticed how he often faltered, especially when he sang the chorus. Clearly, he wasn't enjoying this.

Again

I chime in

"Haven't you people ever heard of closing a damn door?!"

No, it's much better to face these kinds of things

With a sense of poise and rationality

I chime in

"Haven't you people ever heard of closing a damn door?!"

No, it's much better to face these kinds of things

With a sense of poise and rationality

Again

More silence followed the ending, followed by more laughing.

0000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000

Nom Nom banged his fists on the confessional wall as he laughed.

0000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000

Yusei was doubled over on the seat, also laughing.

0000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000

"Woah," Mandy said, looking completely shocked.

0000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000

"Props for hilarity," Chris gasped, still laughing. "You didn't beat Shrek, but knowing you toughed out the entire song, you have my respect." The other two judges nodded.

"Just so you know," Snake told his teammate, "we're all laughing with you, not at you."

Nom Nom scoffed. "Speak for yourself."

Double D was blushing from embarrassment. I hope this absurd challenge ends soon so I can get my dignity back."

When everyone quieted down, Chris got the ball rolling again and drew another name out. "Toph, come on to the stage."

"Alright," Toph replied as she got onstage. "My song is 'Eye of the Tiger' by Survivor."

"I love that song," Chef said. "Wow the crowd."

Toph: Risin' up, back on the street

Did my time, took my chances

Went the distance now I'm back on my feet

Just a man and his will to survive

So many times it happens too fast

You trade your passion for glory

Don't lose your grip on the dreams of the past

You must fight just to keep them alive

It's the eye of the tiger, it's the thrill of the fight

Risin' up to the challenge of our rival

And the last known survivor stalks his prey in the night

And he's watchin' us all with the EYE of the tiger

Face to face, out in the heat

Hangin' tough, stayin' hungry

They stack the odds, still we take to the street

For the kill with the skill to survive

It's the eye of the tiger, it's the thrill of the fight

Risin' up to the challenge of our rival

And the last known survivor stalks his prey in the night

And he's watchin' us all with the EYE of the tiger

Risin' up, straight to the top

Had the guts, got the glory

Went the distance now I'm not gonna stop

Just a man and his will to survive

It's the eye of the tiger, it's the thrill of the fight

Risin' up to the challenge of our rival

And the last known survivor stalks his prey in the night

And he's watchin' us all with the EYEEEEEEE of the tiger

The eye of the tiger

Another moderate applause followed Toph's performance. Chris and Chef nodded, but Courtney looked annoyed.

"What's with all the rock and roll? It's that kind of stupidest music around."

"Shut up," Chris told her. "Toph, not bad. However, you were a little off key at times."

Chef nodded. "I'm afraid you didn't beat Shrek," he said, "but the song was nice."

Another name was pulled out of the bucket and…."Next up is Mandy!"

Mandy got on stage and turned to the judges. It was at that moment everyone noticed what she had been wearing the whole time. She seemed to be in some sort of goth outfit, complete with black and white makeup.

"'You're Mine' by Disturbed," she told the judges. "That's all you need to know."

Dante's ears perked up. "My kind of music," he whispered. Chris nodded as a starting signal.

Mandy: I've begun to realize

That whenever I am with you

You deliver me from the pain

In my life

Easy now to recognize

All the misery I have been through

It was beating me to submission

Till the day you arrived

Certainly, I felt alive

Strength I had lost was revived

I'm mending inside

And we both know why

'Cause you're

Mine!

I knew I could be whole if you were

Mine!

I'll vanquish any foe because you're

Mine!

Been betrayed too many times

Didn't think I would ever recover

That it'd haunt me for the rest of my life

Then you opened up my eyes

And you helped me rediscover

With what you resurrected

A man who had died

Your power regave me new life

Made me reborn and refined

Rebuilt from inside

And we both know why

'Cause you're

Mine!

I knew I could be whole if you were

Mine!

I'll vanquish any foe because you're

Mine!

I never thought I would ever escape

At times, I wanted to die

Feared that it all was just a little too late

For then I wouldn't survive

I let you in and let go of the hate

My heart recovered now, I

Owe you a debt that I can never repay

I still believe

'Cause you're mine

I'm burning inside

And we both know why

'Cause you're mine!

I knew I could be whole if you were

Mine!

I'll vanquish any foe because you're

Mine!

I can regain control because you're

Mine!

I can take over the world because you're

Mine!

Of all the performances that had happened so far, this one made everyone feel the most uneasy. When the song finished, only a few brave souls clapped. Everyone else sat there, a little scared.

The way she sang that song, no wonder she was a force to be reckoned with.

"That was good," Chris told her, a little hard to get out. "I think you've beaten Shrek. And not because we're scared or anything. Right guys?! He turned to Chef and Courtney. They both nodded.

Chris continued, "The Green Ogres continue their reign over the challenge. Let's see how the Cute Koalas manage. Now who's next?" He drew another name out.

"Yusei, you're up!"

Lammy cheered as the duelist got onstage and faced the others. He was wearing one of those magician outfits, complete with the tuxedo, that cheap looking wand and a tall hat (which made him look a little like the Mad Hatter).

"My song is 'Magic' by B.O.B.," he told the judges. "Prepare to be amazed by the Great Yusini!"

0000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000

"Yusini?" Shrek asked. "These people need be'er nicknames."

0000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000

(Note: As this song has rapping in it, the rap parts will not be italicized. Also, he randomly summons out some of his duel monsters as his special effects.)

Yusei: I got the magic in me

Every time I touch that track

It turns into gold

Everybody knows

I've got the magic in me

When I hit the flow the girls come

Snappin' at me

Now everybody wants some presto

Magic, magic, magic

Aoooooooo!

I got the magic in me!

These tricks that I'll attempt

Will blow your mind

Pick a verse, any verse

I'll hypnotize you with every line

I'll need a volunteer

How about you, with the eyes?

Come on down to the front

And stand right here and don't be shy

I'll have you time-travellin'

Have your mind babblin'

People tryin' to inherit the skill

So they askin' me

Even David Blaine had to go

And take some classes

And I see Mindfreak like

What's up man, what's happenin'?

So come one, come all

And see the show tonight

Prepare to be astounded

No Ghost or Poltergeist

You know I'm no Pinocchio

I've never told a lie

So call me Mr. Magic Man

I float on Cloud Nine

I got the magic in me

(I got the magic, baby)

Every time I touch that track it

Turns into gold

(Yes it turns to gold)

Everybody knows

I've got the magic in me

(I got the magic, baby)

When I hit the flow the girls come

Snappin' at me

(They be snappin' baby)

Now everybody wants some presto

Magic, magic, magic

Aoooooo!

I got the magic in me!

Well, take a journey into my mind

You'll see why it's venom I rhyme

Stay on the road

So I call my mama when I got time

I hit the stage, go insane

Then jump into that crowd

See, see, when I rhyme

I flow on the beat like pidda-dow-dow

See I deceive you with my

Intergalactic ether

I sing just like Aretha

So respect me like I'm Caesar

I kick it like Adidas

Flowin' sticky like adhesive

Be cautious, 'cause what I be on

Will leave you with amnesia

I break all the rules

Like Evel Knievel

It's a spectacular show

'Cause my heart pumps diesel

So whatever you saying

It don't entertain my ego

I do this everyday

Hocus pocus is my styl-o

I got the magic in me

(I got the magic, baby)

Every time I touch that track it

Turns into gold

(Yes it turns to gold)

Everybody knows

I've got the magic in me

(I got the magic, baby)

When I hit the flow the girls come

Snappin' at me

(They be snappin' baby)

Now everybody wants some presto

Magic, magic, magic

Aoooooo!

I got the magic in me!

Yusei finished the song, and the crowd did an above-average applause. Lammy was particularly impressed, and everyone quieted to hear what the judges had to say. Only Nom Nom failed to clap.

"The special effects were some of the best yet," Chris said. "And the magician theme? Not bad. The singing, however, was a little lacking."

Chef nodded. "You were a little off-track with the rapping." As for Courtney, "I'm not a fan of rapping. Mandy's still in the lead. Oh, and nice face tat."

Her comment took a few people aback. "And now you know why Duncan broke up with you," Dante shot back at her. "Because you're a *censored*."

Now Courtney was angry. And she wasn't trying to hide it. "Let me draw the next name," she seethed. "Nom Nom, stage. NOW!"

Nom Nom sighed as he climbed up the stage. "I'm going to have you laugh the whole time," he told the crowd, "because I drew 'The Gummy Bear Song' by Gummy Bear."

"Now this will be interesting," said Chris, barely able to compose himself. "Go ahead."

Nom Nom: Oh I'm a Gummy Bear!

Yes, I'm a Gummy Bear!

Oh, I'm a yummy, chummy, funny, lucky Gummy Bear!

I'm a Jolly Bear!

'Cause I'm a Gummy Bear!

Oh, I'm a moving, grooving, jamming, singing, Gummy Bear!

Oh yeah!

Party pop [Pop!]

Most people clapped appreciatively, but the judges, Sam, Snake, Yusei, Toph, and Deadpool were all laughing like crazy.

"THAT'S IT!"

He grabbed a huge stick and started chasing those five people around with it. That sparked some actual laughter from the rest.

"That was hilarious!" Chris called out. "But not enough. Mandy's still in the lead, so the Koalas may be heading for the bonfire. Speaking of Koalas, Snake's up."

Snake barely avoided Nom Nom's whack and ran up to the stage. "My song is 'Another One Bites the Dust' by Queen," he stated. "Here goes nothing."

Snake: Steve walks warily down the street

The brim pulled way down low

And ain't no sound but the sound of his feet

Machine guns ready to go

Are you ready hey, are you ready for this

Are you standing on the edge of your seat

Out of the doorway the bullets rip

To the sound of the beat, yeah, yeah, yeah, sing it

Another one bites the dust

Another one bites the dust, hey

And another one gone, and another one gone

Another one bites the dust

Hey, I'm gonna get you too

Another one bites the dust

How do you think I'm going to get along

Without you, when you're gone?

You took me for everything that I had

You kicked me out on my own

Are you happy? Are you satisfied?

How long can you stand the heat?

Out of the doorway the bullets rip

To the sound of the beat, yeah, yeah, yeah

Another one bites the dust

And another one gone, and another one gone

Another one bites the dust

Hey, gonna get you too

Another one bites the dust

Another one bites the dust yeah

Another one bites the dust

Another one bites the dust yeah, yeah

Another one bites the dust yeah

Yeah, yeah

Give me yeah yeah

Yeah, yeah

Another one bites the dust

Hey ,another one bites the dust yeah

Another one bites the dust yeah

Bites the dust

Yeah

Another one bites the dust

Yeah, yeah, yeah

There are plenty of ways you can hurt a man

And bring him to the ground

You can beat him, you can cheat him

You can treat him bad and leave him when he's down

Is he ready, is he ready for you

I'm standing on my own two feet

Out of the doorway the bullets rip

Repeating the sound of the beat

Another one bites the dust

Another one bites the dust, hey

And another one gone, and another one gone

Another one bites the dust

Hey, I'm gonna get you too

Another one bites the dust

Yeah, yeah

Alright

Yeah, yeah, yeah

Yes

The final notes sounded from the speaker, and Sam joined the group in the applause. Only Nom Nom wasn't clapping.

"I always loved Queen growing up," Chris said. "But your singing wasn't that great."

The other two judges nodded. "May we see some actual talent?" Courtney asked, looking bored. The competitors were starting to get angry with her. In fact, Toph already had half a mind to throw a rock at her, and Deadpool had his hand on the stick Nom Nom dropped.

"Sam, come to the stage," Chris announced. The spy walked to the stage to face the crowd. "I drew 'Wide Awake' by Katy Perry." She began the song.

Sam: I'm wide awake

I'm wide awake

Yeah, I was in the dark

I was falling hard

With an open heart

I'm wide awake

How did I read the stars so wrong

I'm wide awake

And now it's clear to me

That everything you see

Ain't always what it seems

I'm wide awake

Yeah, I was dreaming for so long

I wish I knew then

What I know now

Wouldn't dive in

Wouldn't bow down

Gravity hurts

You made it so sweet

Till I woke up on

On the concrete

Falling from cloud 9

Crashing from the high

I'm letting go tonight

(Yeah I'm) Falling from cloud 9

I'm wide awake

Not losing any sleep

Picked up every piece

And landed on my feet

I'm wide awake

Need nothing to complete myself - nooohooo

I'm wide awake

Yeah, I am born again

Outta the lion's den

I don't have to pretend

And it's too late

The story's over now, the end

I wish I knew then

What I know now

Wouldn't dive in

Wouldn't bow down

Gravity hurts

You made it so sweet

Till I woke up on

On the concrete

Falling from cloud 9

Crashing from the high

I'm letting go tonight (yeah, I'm letting go)

I'm Falling from cloud 9

Thunder rumbling

Castles crumbling

I am trying to hold on

God knows that I tried

Seeing the bright side

But I'm not blind anymore...

I'm wide awake

Yeah, I'm Falling from cloud 9

Crashing from the high

You know I'm letting go tonight

I'm Falling from cloud 9

I'm wide awake

Once the song had finished, another round of applause rang out in the area. Snake looked incredibly proud of Sam, and the rest of the Koalas were smiling (except Nom Nom).

"That was pretty good," Chris said, "but it's still not up to par with Mandy. We now only have four people left to sing. And up next is….Coco!"

Coco got onstage and faced the crown. "Cococococococococo," she told everyone.

"'Sissy That Walk' by Rupaul?!" Courtney asked, shocked. "You guys have the guts to have the song of a drag queen in this?"

Chef looked right at her. "You, little lady, need to shut up," he seethed.

(Note: Knowing Coco's language, her performance is very predictable and very short.)

Coco: Cococococococo

Cocococococo

Cococococococococococo

Cocococococo

"Stop!" Chris ordered. The music stopped, and only Lammy cheered. Everyone else was silent.

"We just can't understand you," Chris explained. "Speaking is one thing, but singing is another thing altogether. So sorry. You're not beating your teammate."

Coco hung her head as she walked back to her team. Yusei gave her a consoling pat on the back, and Lammy walked over to her. All three looked back to the stage as Chris drew the next name out of the bucket.

"The mercenary himself, Deadpool!"

"My turn!" Deadpool squealed as he dashed up the stage. Courtney looked at him and said, "What song are you doing today, Deadpool?"

"I drew Player's Choice," Deadpool told her, "and the song I chose is 'Dare You to Move' by Switchfoot."

That surprised everyone entirely. The moment he had said Player's Choice, the crowd immediately expected him to sing some provocative song about women. This wasn't what they had in mind. However, a handful of people (particularly Snake and his alliance) were more interested in the performance itself than the song choice.

"I hope TheMasterKat falls in love with my super awesome singing," he muttered.

0000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000

"Everyone who is reading this story right now," Deadpool explained, "will want to pay attention to this."

0000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000

"Sounds like he wants to get a message out to everyone," said Sam.

0000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000

Deadpool: Welcome to the planet

Welcome to existence

Everyone's here

Everybody's watching you now

Everybody waits for you now

What happens next?

I dare you to move

I dare you to lift

Yourself up off by the floor

I dare you to move

Like today never happened

Today never happened before

Welcome to the fallout

Welcome to resistance

The tension is here

Between who you are

And who you could be

Between how it is

And how it should be yeah

I dare you to move

I dare you to lift

Yourself up off by the floor

I dare you to move

Like today never happened

Today never happened

Maybe redemption has stories to tell

Maybe forgiveness is right where you fell

Where can you run to escape from yourself?

Where you gonna go? Where you gonna go?

Salvation is here

Snake couldn't have been more surprised with how Deadpool took the song. For starters, he wasn't that bad. This performance was certainly above average. However, that wasn't what intrigued Snake. As the song continued, it became clear to Snake that Deadpool was using this as a rallying point to the other competitors. At first, it wasn't clear what he was rallying them towards. Then Snake looked over at Nom Nom and realized the rallying point was to band together against Nom Nom. And Deadpool was in Nom Nom's alliance!

On top of all that, Deadpool also seemed to be singing to someone in the crowd in a friendly manner. Snake knew immediately whom when he remembered what he had seen a few days ago, with the lake, Fang, and his knife. And at certain times, Deadpool looked right at Julie.

Snake smiled. Deadpool may have been in Nom Nom's alliance, but he was certainly one of the good guys this time around.

I dare you to move

I dare you to lift yourself

To lift yourself up off by the floor

I dare you to move

Like today never happened

Today never happened

Today never happened before

Julie and Snake were the ones that clapped the hargest as the song finished. Nom Nom clapped acceptably, and Snake knew he was oblivious to what the song was for. Chris quieted everyone down and turned to Deadpool.

"That was one of the most surprising performances of the night," he said. "I can't help but be impressed. You certainly weren't bad."

Chef also nodded. "I like Switchfoot, so that was certainly a good one."

"Meh," Courtney added. "It wasn't that amazing. I say it was a lot to be desired. Mandy's still in the lead. It's proof that all schizophrenics should just be holed up in mental hospitals." And she said this without the slightest bit of emotion.

That was by far the most scathing thing she had said all night. And though Deadpool tried to hide it, he was clearly hurt. He just walked offstage, where Julie immediately tried to help him.

"Don't listen to her," she whispered. "She's just a jerk."

"On that note," Chris said, "we still have two more people to sing. And up next is Goku."

The Saiyan flew to the stage. "My song is 'Wannabee' by The Spice Girls."

"NO!" Chef yelled. "I don't want any Spice Girls here. Why was that song even in the drawing earlier?" Chef shifted his eyes in a guilty way.

0000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000

"The Spice Girls are the best group ever," Chris said. "Chef's just jealous."

0000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000

"Only one person left to sing then," Chris announced. "If Lammy can beat Mandy, the Koalas win the challenge. So Lammy, don't keep us waiting."

Lammy nervously nodded as she walked up the stage. Before she knew it, she was in front of the entire group.

"Like Deadpool, I also got Player's Choice," she stammered. "I pick 'Fallin' for You' by Colbie Caillat."

Chris nodded, and Lammy took a deep breath as she looked at Yusei's face.

Lammy: I don't know, but I think I may be fallin' for you

Droppin' so quickly, maybe I should keep this to myself

Wait until I know you better

I am tryin' not to tell you, but I want to

I'm scared of what you'll say

So I'm hidin' what I'm feelin'

But I'm tired of holdin' this inside my head

I've been spendin' all my time just thinkin' 'bout you

I don't know what to do, I think I'm fallin' for you

I've been waitin' all my life, and now I found you

I don't know what to do, I think I'm fallin' for you

I'm fallin' for you

As I'm standin' here, and you hold my hand

Pull me towards you, and we start to dance

All around us, I see nobody

Here in silence, it's just you and me

I am tryin' not to tell you, but I want to

I'm scared of what you'll say

So I'm hidin' what I'm feelin'

But I'm tired of holdin' this inside my head

I've been spendin' all my time just thinkin' 'bout you

I don't know what to do, I think I'm fallin' for you

I've been waitin' all my life, and now I found you

I don't know what to do, I think I'm fallin' for you

I'm fallin' for you

If Yusei weren't there, he wouldn't have believed what he was hearing. She picked that song because of him. Was Lammy falling in love with Yusei? Whatever the reason, Yusei couldn't help but smile at the thought of this happening. However, he was starting to think he was falling in love with her right back.

As for the performance, it was almost as good as her guitar playing. And that's still pretty awesome.

Oh, I just can't take it, my heart is racin'

Emotions keep spinnin' out

I've been spendin' all my time just thinkin' 'bout you

I don't know what to do, I think I'm fallin' for you

I've been waitin' all my life, and now I found you

I don't know what to do, I think I'm fallin' for you

I'm fallin' for you, I think I'm fallin' for you

I can't stop thinkin' 'bout it, I want you all around me

And now I just can't hide it, I think I'm fallin' for you

I can't stop thinkin' 'bout it, I want you all around me

And now I just can't hide it, I think I'm fallin' for you

I'm fallin' for you, oh, oh, oh, no, no, oh, oh, oh, oh

Oh, I'm fallin' for you

The biggest applause yet followed the performance, including a standing ovation. Chris looked amazingly pleased, and Chef smiled. Even Courtney couldn't find anything wrong to say.

"I think the crowd agrees with us," Chris announced. "Lammy overtakes Mandy, and the Cute Koalas win!"

The Koalas were now cheering as they hoisted Lammy up on their shoulders. As the group passed the Ogres, she turned to Yusei.

"I hope you're not embarrassed," she whispered. Yusei smiled and shook his head. "I'm not," he said.

"Ogres," Chris told the losers, "there just isn't any love for you guys these days. Bonfire, tonight."

"Another loss?" Mandy asked aloud. "Why does my team stink?"

0000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000

"I'm tired of hearin' 'Cocococo' all day long," said Shrek.

0000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000

"She did do the worst in the challenge," said Julie.

0000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000

Most of the bonfire ceremony had already passed, and the three remaining people without a marshmallow were Coco, Mandy, and Dante. Dante was only in the bottom three on the basis of threat level.

"Dante," Chris said, throwing the marshmallow to the demon hunter.

"Two ladies, and only one marshmallow," the host stated. "Who will it go to?"

Mandy was as calm as ever, while Coco was nervous.

"I'm too tired out for the dramatic sentence this time," Chris said. "Mandy, here's your marshmallow. Coco, you're out." He threw the marshmallow to Mandy, and Coco hung her head again as she walked to the cannon and boarded it. However, there was a guest: Courtney in a straightjacket.

"Why am I being shot with this birdbrain?!" Courtney yelled. "I wanted to be shot out with someone who actually has seEEEEEEENNNNCCCCEEE!"

Both girls were shot out, and Chris was relieved.

"Finally," he said. "She's gone."

Later….

"You found it?" Lammy asked Yusei, who was holding her guitar.

Yusei nodded. "It was under the floor of the mess hall," he explained. Don't ask how I found it. Now how about that guitar lesson.

Lammy nodded. "You hold the guitar like this." She showed him the right posture.

Then Yusei tried strumming it, and two of the strings broke. "Oops," he said, laughing.

0000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000

"So what was that song all about?" Julie asked Deadpool.

He just shrugged. "I just felt like singing it for some reason." Julie could tell he was lying. "So there wasn't anything about your song choice?" Deadpool shook his head.

Julie decided not to press it. "Well you were amazing today," she said. "And don't let Courtney's words get you down. Schizophrenic or not, you're an amazing guy. That's all that matters."

Deadpool smiled.

"It's late," Julie said. "I'd better get to bed. Goodnight." And she walked back to her cabin.

Julie deserved to know. Deadpool knew that. She deserved to know the truth.

'You will tell her tomorrow," Deadpool thought to himself. 'You will tell her about the alliance, the plans, and why you came to her in the first place.'

Meanwhile…..

"Rarity," Nom Nom called. "I want to talk to you."

Rarity looked at him, a little confused. Then she nodded and walked to him. At the same time, she was nervous. She knew what Nom Nom was about to say. She wasn't a fortune teller like a friend of hers, but she didn't need to be to know that Nom Nom was going to talk to her about his alliance. "Just don't get distracted," she told herself. Soon she was right in front of Nom Nom.

"What do you plan on doing now that you know about my alliance?" Nom Nom asked her. Rarity replied, "Tell the other competitors. They need to be warned."

Nom Nom smiled. "Do they really?"

"What do you mean?" Rarity asked.

"I mean do they need to know," Nom Nom responded. "If these people knew about an alliance, they would have to worry about something else on top of what they already have. That can break a guy. You have the spies, who have to hide their feelings for each other. Yusei and Lammy have to do the same for each other. Shall I continue? Keeping this a secret would be a very generous thing of you to do."

One look in Rarity's face and Nom Nom knew he had struck home.

0000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000

Longest chapter ever. I'm glad it's over.

Coco's out due to poor singing ability, but who could blame her? Whoever created Coco must have either been a complete idiot or they really liked hot cocoa.

Deadpool provided the surprise, Nom Nom and Double D provided the hilarity, and Yusei and Lammy provided the bonding. Nom Nom also provided a way for Rarity to keep her big mouth shut.

Again, I do not own any of the songs in this chapter. Just to remind you guys.

Read and review. And challenge ideas are always welcome.

Now I'm tired from doing this really long chapter *yawn*.

I guess I'll see you next time when I'm "wide awake". Get it? *another yawn*
