Chapter 14: ATV Rides

"Last time on Totally Epic: Hawaiian Style, the final three competed in a sailing race. It would've been smooth sailing, if it wasn't for the waves, whirlpools, and explosions. Johnny came in first, Setsuna was in second, but unfortunately due to a random explosion in the water, Kahlin got to the island last which meant he was the one to leave. We're now down to the final two. Who'll win the million dollar prize? Will it be Johnny or Setsuna? Find out on the last episode of Totally Epic: Hawaiian Style!" Monica announced.


"Wow, I can't believe we're in the final two." said Setsuna. "Neither can I." Johnny replied.

"Just so you know, Johnny, I won't be stooping low to win."

"Me neither. If I wanna win I want to do it fairly."

"Well see you in the morning, goodnight." Setsuna told him.

And she headed for the trailer.

"Good night." Johnny replied, and he headed for the other trailer.


"I can't believe I made it to the final two. This is so exciting." Setsuna told the audience.


"I feel honored to be in the finale. I wonder if I'll win." said Johnny.


By the time the sun rose the following morning, Setsuna and Johnny were ready for whatever challenge Monica would throw at them. In the mess hall, they were just finishing their breakfast when Monica walked in.

"Good morning you two, and welcome to the finale. Congratulations Setsuna and Johnny for making it this far." she told them.

"Thanks, Monica." replied Setsuna.

"We're glad to be here." Johnny added.

"Since you've finished eating, let's get this final challenge started."

With that, the two teens followed Monica out of the mess hall. They all boarded, but they didn't see Hailey or Charlotte.

"Where's Charlotte and Hailey?" wondered Johnny.

"Oh they're at our destination. We'll see them soon." Monica told them.

And they all took off.


They drove off the set, and came to the edge of field of mounds of dirt. And in a peanut gallery, were the other contestants who had been voted out. Next to the stand, was a large TV screen, where the others could watch the challenge.

"Johnny and Setsuna say hello to your own personal audience." Monica told them.

"Gianna, Frank, Elijah, Taylor, Tammie, Caden, Mia, Kevin, Lucky, Edu, Vivian, and Kahlin."

Gianna, Frank, Elijah, Taylor, Tammie, and Kahlin all smiled and waved. Caden and Vivian were holding hands, and waving together. Kevin was just sitting in his spot sulking and scowling.

"Now time for your final challenge. And here comes Hailey and Charlotte with your vehicles."

They heard the sounds of revving wheels. Hailey and Charlotte were riding in on ATVs.

"Whew, that was a rush." said Hailey.

"You said it. You okay, Pepper?" Charlotte asked.

She opened her little side bag, and Pepper poked his head out. He squeaked dizzily.

"(Giggles), don't worry, Pepper. We're done for today."

She took him out of her bag, and put him on her shoulder.

"For your final challenge, you'll be racing each other on these ATVs. First you'll drive through this dirt field, then you'll race through the jungle part of the island, then along the beach and you'll finished back here." Monica explained.

"Quite the final challenge, Monica." Hailey told her.

"You got that right, Hailey. Setsuna and Johnny on your vehicles."

The two did just that, and Setsuna looked out at the peanut gallery. Edu was smiling and waving at her.

"Good luck, Setsuna." he called to her.

"Thanks, Edu." Setsuna called back.

She then blew him a kiss, and he caught it.

"Are you ready, finalists?" Monica asked through her megaphone.

"We're ready." the two told her.

"Then get ready...get set...GO!"

Hailey blew her air horn, and the two started their rides and drove off.

"And there they go." Monica observed.

"This is gonna be good." Charlotte said.


On the dirt field, Johnny and Setsuna drove as fast as they could. It was a bumpy ride with all the dirt mounds, but they both tried to go fast yet keep steady. Setsuna hit the gas, speeding up passing Johnny.

"And Setsuna has taken the lead." Monica announced.

"Go Setsuna!" cheered Edu.

"You can do it!" added Vivian.

"Come on, Johnny!" Kevin yelled.

"You can beat her."

"I didn't know you and Johnny were friends." Frank told him.

"We're not." Kevin replied simply.

"I just I want the guy to win."


The two soon left the dirt field, and rode into the jungle. Now this path was a little bumpier than the dirt, with the branches, rocks, and other things. Setsuna was still in the lead, but she didn't see a branch was lying in the road.

When she reached it, the ATV didn't have enough "ooff" to go over it, so Setsuna ended up falling off it.

"And Setsuna's down." Monica observed.

Everyone gasped, and Edu looked worried. Setsuna slowly got up, and as she did, Johnny came on his ATV, and jumped over the branch.

"And Johnny has now taken the lead."


"Normally I would've stopped to help her. But this is the final competition." Johnny told the audience.


Setsuna quickly got back on her ATV, and sped over the branch following Johnny. Johnny ducked under vines, swerved past big rocks, and dodged any holes. Setsuna came up behind him, trying to get around.

"I am going to beat you Johnny!" she shouted.

"You have to get ahead of me first!" he shouted back.

And with that, he sped up and Setsuna sped up after him.


After getting out the jungle, they were now on the beach.

"And the two finalists have now reached the beach part of the race." Monica announced.

"Oh boy, this is getting good." whispered Gianna.

"You got that right." agreed Elijah.

Luckily for Johnny and Setsuna sand was easier to drive on. Setsuna sped up, and was able to get ahead of him.

"And Setsuna has re-taken the lead."

"That one million dollars is mine." Setsuna whispered to herself.

Up ahead were some sand dunes, which meant things were about to get bumpy again. She held on tightly to the handles, and drove over the dunes. As she went up and down, Johnny was on her tail.

But unlike Setsuna, he wasn't holding on as tightly as he should've, as he went up and down over the dunes, he fell off.

"And down goes Johnny." Monica narrated.

Johnny quickly spit sand out of his mouth, hopped back on his ATV, and followed after her. Setsuna looked behind her, and saw him gaining. She quickly sped up, but Johnny was still on her tail.


Back at the dirt field, everybody waited anxiously to see who would win.

"Our audience have waited for a long time to see who would win, and the answer's coming right now." Monica informed.

Johnny and Setsuna were heading back towards the finish line, and they were neck in neck.

"Come on Setsuna you can do it!" cheered Edu.

"Keep going Johnny, you're almost there." called Kahlin.

The two put the pedal to the medal, going as fast as their ATVs could go. Johnny inched ahead of her, but Setsuna caught up. When the finish line was just a few feet away, Johnny pressed the gas pedal even harder, and caused a cloud of dirt to form, and it got in Setsuna's face.

But Setsuna tried to keep up. Everyone watched closely as the two got closer to the finish line, and the person who crossed the finish line first was...Johnny!

"And Johnny wins!" cheered Monica.

Most of the others cheered. At first Johnny was shocked, but then smiled.

"I won!" he cried happily.

Setsuna looked a little disappointed, but then saw Edu coming over to her. He hugged her.

"You're a winner in my eyes." he told her.

Setsuna smiled warmly, and pecked him on the cheek.

"Thanks, Edu. Congratulations Johnny." she told.

"Thanks, Setsuna. You did good too." Johnny replied.


"I may not have won the million dollars, but at least I got Edu." Setsuna told the audience.


Back at the set, everyone was getting ready to go.

"Here's your prize money, Johnny." Monica told him.

Hailey then handed him a suitcase full of cash.

"Thanks." Johnny replied, taking the case.

"It was fun meeting you all." Charlotte called to them.

Pepper squeaked in agreement. Everyone waved goodbye, as they all boarded the bus and drove away.

"And that's another season of Totally Epic. Thank you for watching, this is Monica Striker signing out."
