Chapter Two: We Be Man (and Girl) Huntin'

Time

04:00 AM

*{SQUAD A}*

BEEP! BEEP! An alarm already set up on a desk blared off into the campers ears.

"Turn it off, god!" yelled Amelie. "I HATE alarm clocks!"

"I think it's time to get up, Amelie," Tony said.

Amelie glared at Tony. "I-I mean maybe it was a mistake?" asked Tony.

"Guys, let's relax!" Angie said. "We can just turn the alarm off-" She was interrupted by Chris slamming into the room.

"Come on, maggots!" Chris said. "Time for the challenge! Take these uniforms; NOW!"

In the campers hands were dark green camo suits for the boys, and dark pink camo suits for the girls. "Can I have a boy one? I'm one of the-" Taylor S asked, getting a dark green camo suit in her face. "I wasn't finished with my feminist speech!"

"You can tell me it later, okay?" reassured Tony.

"Oh, you're so nice," said Taylor S, trying to get herself blushing.

Taylor S: "Shit, Taylor!"

Time

4:30 AM

The campers were in a wide field, with trees around for shade. "This challenge is called The Manhunt. These are the rules…"

In Manhunt, you will be trying to 'hunt' the others by tackling them. By using your social skills, you can either start a 'hunt' towards someone or join someone elses. After the one hour call, the person with the most people against them will be..eliminated. Quitting will get you eliminated, getting injured will either give you immunity or get you evacuated (depending on the injury)

"Hm, seems fun," Makoto said with a smirk.

"So it's like playing tag?" asked Ben. "Oh, I love tag!"

"Yes," said Tony. "It's like tag! And everyone's it!"

"Awesome!" Ben exclaimed.

Tony: "I like Ben, I really do. I don't wanna see him go!"

"Ready to begin?" asked Chris, as the campers spreaded out.

"Yup!" Jean said.

Angie added, "I'm so gonna kill it."

"I hope everyone does okay!" Taylor S said.

Mikayo admitted, "This is too violent."

Chris announced, "ALRIGHT! THREE…"

Makoto directed himself towards Olive in his position, as Mikaio pulled him back.

"TWO!"

Amelie sighed, as she prepared herself.

"ONE!"

Taylor S flipped her hair. "I'm so nervous," she mumbled.

"BEGIN!"

Immediately, everyone got into action. Makoto dashed towards Olive. "Whoa, whoa!" Olive screamed as she ran for her life.

"I'M COMING!" Makoto yelled towards Olive.

Mikaio gasped. "No, no, stop!" As Mikaio panicked, Ben waddled around like a lost puppy.

"G-guys?" he asked, curious and confused. "W-what's going on?"

"Run!" Tony whispered in Ben's ear. Hearing Tony's voice snapped something in him.

His eyes turned angry, his face looked clenched, and he immediately ran towards Tony in anger. "R AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA RA!" he yelled.

"Dude, dude, we're friends!" Tony panicked. "D-dude! Stop! Please!"

"YOU ARE NOT MY FRIEND, YOU ARE MY ENEMY," Ben shouted at Tony. "YOU ARE NOT MY….oh, hey Tony!"

"Hi?" asked Tony, confused about what happened.

Meanwhile, Amelie decided that she had to at least try and win. She found Taylor S, just standing there and waiting for someone to come 'threaten' her.

Amelie walked over to Taylor S, and sighed."Hey, Taylor S, I'll take up your offer to be your bestie," she said, painfully.

"Really?" asked Taylor S. "Oh my god, YAY!" Overcome with joy, she squeezed Amelie hardly.

"Oh, it hurts, please stop," mumbled Amelie.

Amelie: "I know, I'm 'anti social.' But if I'm gonna try and win, I need at least one friend..right?

C0MMERC1AL BREAK

Go and touch some grass, then return.

Touched grass?

Alright, let's continue…

Meanwhile, back at SQUAD B

"Joy!" Mitch said, running to them. "I finally got the rope! Me and Niraj got into some…chaos.."

Joy yawned, waking up. "It's 5 in the morning…"

"Still, just take it!" Mitch said. "Don't expect anymore."

As Mitch jumped into bed, Joy sighed. "This is a tug of war rope…."

Back at MANHUNT

Jean was getting some distance away from the others, due to his football training. Still, he felt like he needed to go an inch faster.

"Phew, I can take a rest," sighed Jean, sitting on the muddy ground. "Luckily I have my backup outfit."

As Jean relaxed, Olive ran up to him. "It's actually a good day-huh?"

"CANNONBALL!" Olive screamed, jumping on Jean. "Heh."

Olive: "I'm not racist. I just thought Mikaio seemed like someone who would like hula dancing, and I don't like the coronavirus! Now, get off my case!"

"Hm," Angie said, tinkering with her new invention. This invention, called the Umpa-Lumpo, would make a mudball and throw it at people. "This is so gonna work," she said to herself, aiming at Emily.

"Oh my god Tony, you are so manly!" Emily squealed, while talking to Tony. Tony just smiled and waited for it to be over. "I think there's something on your face!" she said, and leaned in to kiss him.

Tony whispered, "Please stop so I can continue the challenge, please please-"

"FIRE!" Angie yelled, firing a mudball right at the back of Emily's ponytail.

"ICK! MY HAIR!" Emily wailed. "Who could have done this!" she looked over to the back, and saw Angie, dancing.

Angie said, "I did it, I did it, I'm the best person here, aw yeah.."

"ANGIE," Emily said, stomping up to her. "HOW..how could you? I was about to kiss Tony!"

"This is a competition, Emily," Angie said. "Which is why you should duck."

"Duck?" Emily asked.

Angie yelled, "GOOSE!" and jumped on Emily. "OW, MY NOSE!" she screeched.

"Haha!" Emily laughed, getting up and punching Angie.

Angie gasped. "Nuh uh!" she punched Emily back, and soon the two were in a fistfight.

"Guys, come over here! Check it out!" said Tony, who could only watch the two. "Yo, Olive, get off of Jean."

Olive was armlocking Jean, but she let him go to check out the fight. "What's going on?" asked Jean, now able to breathe. Quickly, he saw the fight, and ran over.

"YOU B*TCH!" yelled Emily, bending down, grabbing a piece of mud, and throwing it at Angie.

Angie retorted, "YOU'RE THE ONLY B*TCH HERE, B*TCH!" Looking down, she saw a twig, and grabbed it. Using it as sort of an arrow, she directed it to Emily, but it missed.

Angie: "That SO SHOULD HAVE WORKED!"

"Why are they fighting, aren't they roommates?" asked Mikaio. "And isn't this a 'manhunt' challenge?"

"Mikaio is right, break it up now," Tony said, pulling away Emily.

Emily said, "Fine." she looked back, and stuck her tongue at Angie.

"Two can play that game," whispered Angie.

With the challenge in full swing, Makoto thought of an idea. "Mikaio, Tony, Jean, Ben! We need to talk!"

The four came over to Makoto, with Jean being a pinch more aware. "What's up, buttercup?" asked Jean.

"How about us five make an alliance, against all the annoying girls! Aka, Olive, Emily, Angie, and Taylor S. Amelie can stay, she's cool though."

Tony nodded. "Seems like a good idea. How about we call it; The Dudes?"

"I feel like; Paw Patrol Buddies would fit more! No job is too big, no pup is too small!" Ben said. As he looked around, he saw annoying glances from everyone except Mikaio.

"Nice idea, man, but we're kinda old for that," Mikaio said. "Let's call it The Dudes."

"Who should we target first?" asked Makoto.

Tony replied, "Olive. She's the daughter of the FAKEST contestants ever, and she's racist, and remember the 'Save the trees or break your knees?' I think she's in the..YOU KNOW WHAT FANDOM."

"NOT THE YOU KNOW WHAT FANDOM!" cried Jean. "WE NEED HER OUT. NOW."

As the five talked about their gameplan, Taylor S watched from behind. "Oh my god.." she mumbled. "Olive!" she cried, running towards her.

"What," replied Olive. "What's up?"

Taylor S gasped, "The boys are trying to get you out by 'manhunting' you!"

Olive shrugged. "They're too stupid to find a plan. Look at them!" Taylor S took a glance, and the five were actually discussing, then running towards Olive."

Taylor S: "It was at that moment I had to make a choice. Would I save Olive, or would I let the boys eliminate her? It was hard, but I.."

Taylor S ran away, and watched as the boys prepared.

"Taylor, ya scared?" Olive asked. "You're a scaredy cat! Scaredy cat, scaredy-"

"RA!" The five boys yelled, running towards Olive.

Olive gasped. "YOU CAN'T HURT ME, THAT'S BEING FATPHOBIC!"

Even though Olive tried to defend herself, the boys put their action into plan. Mikaio whistled, and a bear came.

"Hey Dave," Mikaio said, petting the bear. "Can you run over Olive? Only once, though."

Dave listened to Mikaio, and trampled Olive once, before running off.

"NO, HELP!" wailed Olive.

The next phase was coming into play, as Tony was preparing to tackle Olive. However, he was resisting. "Tony, Tony? Dude, what's up?" asked Jean, waving his hand in Tony's face.

Tony was panicking, something confusing striking up into him.

"TONY!" Makoto yelled. Snapped back into action, Tony tackled Olive, who was still in shock.

Makoto: "Tony almost messed it up! I'm not mad or anything..totally…"

After Tony finished his tackle, Ben started singing. "Dora, Dora, Dora!"

"PLEASE STOP THE TERRIBLE SINGING!" wailed Olive. "PLEASE!"

As Ben continued his song, Jean and Makoto held Olive's arms, as Tony jumped onto Olive again.

"Now just..stay in this position for another half hour," panted Makoto. "Not too hard?"

Five Minutes Later

"Nice stretch!" Jean said, keeping Olive's arm pinned.

"You guys are cruel," mumbled Olive. "Imagine what my family will say."

Ten Minutes Later

"Dora…dora…dora.." said Ben. "Dora…dora..can I please stop?"

"Only fifteen more minutes to go!" reassured Makoto. "Just keep singing!"

Ben's voice grew quieter and quieter as he sung, with Olive putting up more of a fight. "Ya'll are gonna regret this!" Olive exclaimed as she tried to pull away.

Ten Minutes Later

"Five more minutes!" Tony said. "Anyways dudes, are there any girls y'all are interested in?"

Jean replied, "Sharon seems cool. I don't understand why she doesn't talk, though."

Ben looked up, and said, "I think we should all be friends."

"Yeah, no romance yet," Makoto added. "Until the merge, at least.."

"FIVE MINUTES LEFT!" Chris yelled.

"OKAY, OKAY!" Olive wailed. "I QUIT! I CAN'T TAKE IT ANYMORE!"

Chris looked at Olive, confused. "You quit?"

Olive nodded. "I've been listening to Dora for 25 minutes, and being physically ABUSED! This show is fatphobic!"

"You deserved it," mumbled Makoto.

"Come on, Olive. Let's get you to our way of elimination…." Chris said, evilly.

Olive got out of the boy trap, and walked with Chris, to a huge barrel. "What's that?" Olive asked.

Chris replied, "Hopefully you like NIAGRA FALLS!" He then locked Olive into the barrel, as a boat arrived. He then put the barrel into the boat, and watched as it sailed away to the Falls.

Meanwhile, the rest of Squad A went back to their beds, trying to get at least some rest.
