Author's note:
Hello everyone, I hope you guys are going to enjoy this new chapter I created. Even if is a little short, I hope it will be enough to make everyone happy with this.
Benny Farr : English isn't my first language, so the major problems of grammar and punctuation I try to use Grammarly to fix it... It's a struggle that I always have by writing all my fanfics. Also, some time I try to make it looks like almost exactly like the episode, to make it sounds familiar with the show we always watch it. But sometimes I use the translation of Brazillian dub to make the different dialogues if you want. To make it more unique on the stories.Metalface: Dude, I don't know what am I going to do with you, I just hope you enjoy this chapter.
BrightNova169 Thanks for your reviews dude, it really made my day when you break down many of them, and it motivates me to keep writing more and more.

*release breath*
That was the sound of nearby the Killer Bass' cabins. Ezekiel was without his green hat and his usual green blouse… On his hands his usual bow, and near his feet, a hand made arrows…
*deep breath*
Ezekiel took his arrow, and prepared to aim at the tree… By concentrating on his deep breaths, he focused on nothing more than just hitting a tree at a good distance.
Releasing the arrow, the stick flew with all the speed it could, and made directly on the tree he was aiming for.
*Thumb*
The sound of the arrow hitting the trunk, was what it needed to make the homeschooled boy lower down his arms.
*release breath.*
Ezekiel has been doing that as the only way he could concentrate… And try to not think about the challenge of the last day… Since the time he got out of the glass coffin… he has been sleeping and trying to find a way to control his own chaotic mind… But nothing, he didn't desire to write another chapter of his stories, and he wasn't in the mood to try to draw art or even a fanart.
That challenge just broke him.
"Hey…" Then a voice called his attention, which made him turn his back and see Duncan and Courtney walking towards him. Which Ezekiel remained quiet, and took an arrow to aim at the tree.
*deep breath*
*thumb*
*release breath*
Duncan glanced at the tree which seemed to be pierced by dozens of arrows. Seeing that Ezekiel didn't go there to take them out of the tree… decided to go to take it for the boy. Courtney went near the brown-haired boy, who was giving a pause to see Duncan take the arrows from the tree.
It would have taken a lot of attention if wasn't for the fact it was 2 a.m., the sky was still dark, and the silence around the forest was frightening.
"Couldn't sleep?" Courtney asked as she could see Duncan taking the arrows one by one… Ezekiel remained quiet… the C.I.T. passed a minute to see Duncan bringing the quantity of arrows for the boy to take one of them again, and decide to shoot all over again… "Want us to stay here?"
"...please," Ezekiel replied with a whisper, and Courtney and Duncan looked at each other, before sitting on the grass while seeing Ezekiel take a deep breath… and then launch an arrow… The trio of pillars of the Killer Bass remaining at 2 a.m… And with the time being quiet, Ezekiel decided to start the conversation. "I'm sorry about what happened."
"What do you mean?" Duncan said as he watched Ezekiel pull the cord and release the arrow to reach the tree…
"This challenge was my fault. I shouldn't have talked about the trauma of our lives and what our fears… I didn't know Chris would go this far to relieve our traumas." Ezekiel said with honesty, he hated the idea of how he decided to make the things try to follow the cannon… But such a decision really went to bit on his ass, and he felt that his friends may have thought about the same thing.
"Okay Zeke, first off…" Courtney got up and went in front of the home-schooled boy with her bossy attitude which made him stare at her. "Don't go with this crap idea on your mind. Since it's not your fault. It's Chris, he got our talk from the campfire and decided to go hard on us. He used fake blood on the standee for Duncan, took the Recipe from my family to make me eat it in a minute, and placed earth inside of a glass coffin to make sure your body would have the feeling of your own trauma from your past. It's not your fault."
"I have to agree with the princess, and thankfully she made DJ go after you and Gwen or you would still be suffering for how long," Duncan explained his point as he could even glance at Ezekiel who was taking his arrow to shoot at the tree. And then Duncan tightened his fist and looked with despise as one thought crossed his mind. "And you were right to not trust that stupid guitarist… he left you both way passing your time as you both should."
"Duncan, I know that you are angry… hell, even I'm angry myself. But we should have expected something like that would happen… That wouldn't have happened if we left someone there to watch the time clock, he got surprised by his fear, and he couldn't be there all the time." Courtney tried to come up with a defense against the Gopher who just left their teammates buried alive…
"That's not what Geoff said," Duncan commented which made both Courtney raise her eyebrow, and Ezekiel pauses from using his bow. "Lindsay said Trent was helping Chris to make the pet cloud go after Geoff, and he was even suggesting him which made Chris smile…"
"So he left both of them, to have fun with Geoff dealing with his challenge?" Courtney asked as she grind her teeth. And her own fury started to appear in her eyes. "I should have taken the walkie-talkie from his hands."
"Relax princess, he will get what he deserves. He made both of our own get buried for 12 minutes. He is going to get what he deserves." Duncan said as he could see Ezekiel giving a loud sigh and then looking at the duo.
"Duncan, while I appreciate your idea to make avenge on us. What would the Killer Bass do in a case like that? Take the biggest fear of Trent and transform it to another level. Like, what? Making every single member of the Killer Bass paint ourselves as mimes and proceed to follow him?" Ezekiel rolled his eyes, but suddenly he noticed that neither of the other pillars was saying anything, when he turned his head to see… he noticed that he should have let his mouth shut because he could see the vicious smiles from Duncan and the evil grin of Courtney.
"Ezekiel, you are a genius," Duncan said as he patted the back of Ezekiel and didn't even let him say otherwise. "I'm going to grab everyone and I will explain the plan."
"I think I have enough makeup for everyone, Bridgette maybe has some white ink to place in our faces as well... I think even Gwen would be on this idea. Now, keep relaxing Zeke, we will do the plan in the next hour." Courtney smiled as she quickly left the homeschooled boy alone with his bow again…
"That was sarcasm…" Ezekiel commented, not feeling even in the mood to argue with the duo… they wanted to make Trent traumatized, and Ezekiel was with his mind too chaotic to actually care about the well-being of the others…
*deep breath*
*thumb*
*release breath*
Ezekiel was about to take another arrow, when he suddenly looked at the tree he was using as the main target… and found a hand placing something in front of the said trunk.
Slowly he decided to take part to see what was happening there… and the time he was in front of the tree, Ezekiel's eyes opened in surprise, at the different type of bow he had ever seen, one that he had just seen specifically only in the Olympics on television.
"Did you like it?" A voice said behind the tree…
"Izzy?" Ezekiel asked surprised, as he recognized the familiar voice from behind the tree…
"Sat in the front of the tree, because we cannot have the camera see me." The voice replied and Ezekiel quickly took the bow and sat in front of the tree… "So, did you like it? It's a compound bow I made by hand."
Ezekiel took a long look over the bow in front of him, and seeing that it was like the movies and the professionals using such a bow to give more precise shots, it was something that he never thought he would be able to see.
"It looks awesome." Ezekiel couldn't help but compliment. He could hear the giggle of the chaotic girl behind the tree.
"Good, you can have it," Izzy replied as Ezekiel could hear her sitting on the other side of the tree, and with a good sigh, she couldn't help but ask. "PTSD?"
"Yeah, relieving the day I almost died by being buried in a landslide," Ezekiel answered her question, and for the first time, he felt that he could be without restrictions. "I knew that this challenge would bring our fears, and I wanted to see my team fighting their fears…but to Chris go to that level. I couldn't imagine it not even years from the future."
"Well, sometimes lying about yourself is good. That's why I just followed Owen's fear and decided to act like I had fear of it… It was very easy with Chef focusing on shouting in Cody's ear… I bet he pissed his pants trying to diffuse the bomb."Izzy joked as she couldn't help but laugh in glee to see the geek suffering from his own fears.
"Yeah, he probably did." Ezekiel gave a weak chuckle… since he saw Katie commenting how Cody felt so defeated and needed desperately a shower. But then Ezekiel saw his own hands, and couldn't help but to confess. "But I wished to fight against that. To be peaceful with me while I have to pass minutes on that coffin… I knew it was fake… and yet, my mind feared like it was the worst day of my life… again and again."
The silence crossed around, as the sound of the winds was enough to make some tree leaves make a beautiful sound of nature…
Ezekiel remained quiet as he was still feeling the backlash of the idea of wanting to deal with his trauma like that, and possibly scaring his friends all the long way…
"The white room torture…" Then Izzy replied, which made Ezekiel raise his eyebrows in surprise. "When I was working at RCMP, we had an instructional video about telling how terrible methods of torture crossed around the entire world. And when a video showed about a specific room… Visually, the prisoner is deprived of all color. Their cell is completely white: the walls, floor, and ceiling, as well as their clothes and food. Neon tubes are positioned above the occupant in such a way that no shadows appear. The cell is soundproof, and void of any sound, voices, or social interaction. Guards stand in silence, wearing padded shoes to avoid making any noise. Prisoners cannot hear anything but themselves. In terms of taste and smell, the prisoner is fed white food—classically, unseasoned rice—to deprive them of these senses. Further, all surfaces are smooth, robbing them of the variability of touch sensations."
Ezekiel heard the definition of such a torturous way, and he couldn't help but be terrified that, the concept of living there would be pure insanity. Izzy tried to remain calm while explaining such a thing, but still, Ezekiel could hear hesitation in her voice. She looked really afraid of talking about that.
"When I heard about this and the possible after-effects of such torture, it terrified me… because imagining going inside of such a room, you could possibly become insane, or even worse, lose your own identity and the concept of who are you…" Izzy commented as she tried to look optimistic and crazy like she always has been. "I mean, I can try to make myself many identities… but still, I love who I am… and losing that, I would feel like I wanted to die."
Ezekiel remained quiet, as he then heard the sound of leaves.. with a groaning of the girl behind him.
"Well, I think now you know what my real fear is… so that's great to share about it… about your PTSD, I recommend going to a psychologist, trust me, it did wonders for me when I was working in the same operation as Chef Hatchet. We both needed psychologists after a mission we did together…" Izzy showing the fact that even she needed a psychologist, showed how PTSD was indeed a serious problem. So by giggling like she usually does on the show, Izzy once again used her usual tone. "Also, it's good to know that you tried to fight your fear, you Killer Bass were crazy into going against your traumas like that. And I'm supposed to be the crazy one HAHAHAHA… be well Ezekiel."
After that, the sound of jumping could be heard and the trees moving in an unknown order, leaving Ezekiel alone with the bow… and his new thoughts in his mind… after a few seconds, the boy couldn't help but smile…
"Thanks… I will." Ezekiel replied as he took his new bow with him, a professional compound bow and with the few arrows on his side… He really wanted to try to see how different from the one he had on the farm.
Using a good distance, as he was before. With his eyes closed, he took a deep breath, and by placing one of his arrows around the cords of the gift bow, he stared at the aim of the professional weapon, with one release, the arrow was shot much faster than before, and the different sound of the cords releasing made him blink in surprise.
*THUMB*
The sound of the arrow hitting the tree was louder than before, and that made Ezekiel hum in surprise, as he finally released his breath.
"Woah." Then a sound made Ezekiel straighten his back and look in surprise to see the whole group of Killer Bass watching him use the bow and arrow in such an impressive way.
"Wow Zeke, where did you get that?" Duncan asked in surprise, looking at the bow on the brown-haired boy, it was far more modern than the traditional one he had been using half an hour before. "Weren't you using the wood bow before?"
"Oh." Ezekiel looked at his hands, and then by glancing at the trees… he decided to tell the truth. "It was in front of one tree…"
"In front of a tree?" Courtney asked as she tilted her head, and Duncan raised his eyebrow in disbelief. "Are you for real?"
"Courtney, it's almost 3 of the morning, do you really think that I would go inside somewhere and take from someone?" Ezekiel gave an interesting point, which Courtney thought about it and had to concede. "And I also have no idea about why was there, but it was… well if someone complains that is missing a bow. I give them back okay?"
"Okay, at least you are responsible. But still, very impressive shot." Courtney smiled as she could see the semblance of Ezekiel being lighter and not being fulfilled with the terrible thoughts of the aftermath of the challenge. "So… how are you feeling?"
Ezekiel paused, and stared at all his friends looking at him in concern… and from the talk he had with the chaotic Gopher… he couldn't help but smile like his usual self.
"Like crap but I'm going to manage to go through… If I get that 100 thousand dollars, I'm going to use the first part for my therapy." Ezekiel smiled and joked which made the whole team smile and laugh with the joke.
"Yeah, I think that's a good call… the one who had the prize should pay up for a good psychologist to treat this… Because I think it's going to get worse from now on." Bridgette commented as the whole team seemed to be agreeing with the surfer.
"That's why Condor is for… when it comes about a time it would be too much for us. Don't hesitate to use it. Tyler did this because he knew it would be too much for him, but also wanted to protect Courtney from the pressure." Duncan explained as the group nodded their heads to him. "There will be a line that maybe we should have a choice into crossing or not… but if you think that it's the best to remain your morals and principles… then say it without hesitation alright?"
The group nodded their head, and with that thought in mind. Ezekiel had to sigh, and rethink some decisions in the future… trying to not get frustrated or even panic to relieve the same nightmare over and over again…
"Now, what about the prank we are going to pull up?" Gwen who was hesitant and even tired to be awake at that time, couldn't help to ask about it. "Who is the person you guys want so much to prank?"
"Trent." Then the sound of the group made her eyes go wide open and made her wake up instantly.
"He left you both buried and didn't even think about giving us the walkie-talkie to check if you are both fine, if we knew he ran away to entertain himself with Geoff's challenge, we would have let at least 4 of us stay with you both just to make sure you were both fine."Katie then decided to explain what happened as Geoff was still glaring his eyes behind his hat… the painful ice little rocks really made him aware of how he wanted to pay someone a revenge.
Gwen's eyes narrowed as her teeth gritted.
"He got scared of the mime, but then he just forgot me?" Gwen's eyes turned in the shape of a skull as her fury was enough to describe what she was feeling at that moment.
"Yeah, he forgot about us, making us suffer the little feelings of my almost death… You shouldn't have received the same challenge as me." Ezekiel commented as he took another arrow and launched to the tree which was loud and powerful. "Damn, this bow is awesome."
"Uhu," Harold commented as he looked amazed by it. "Try to use many arrows at the same time, like in the movies."
"Wasn't that going to damage the cord if I do that?" Ezekiel tilted his head, looking confused for his friend suggesting that, by using the bow which was a gift from Izzy…
"Only if you do it many times. But I think if you care of the bow, and doing the right maintenance, it could be used once in a while." Harold commented that the group remained quiet, and Ezekiel shrugged, having at least 10 arrows in his hand, he placed them on the cord… and decided to give it a try.
*deep breath*
Ezekiel pulled the cord, and at the time he used most of his strength to make sure was stabilized, and his eyes were on the aim… By releasing the cord, the arrows flew like bees in the same direction which surprised the whole Killer Bass team, by seeing such thing.
*Thumb**Thumb**Thumb**Thumb**Thumb**Thumb**Thumb**Thumb**Thumb**Thumb*
Like a good picture in a movie, the arrows penetrated the tree.
The group looked in awe to see such an impressive display.
"Woah dude, that was awesome," Geoff commented as he tapped Ezekiel's back. Which made Ezekiel release his breath and then agree with the cowboy hat party boy.
"Yeah, you took the words out of his mouth." Ezekiel smiled… feeling happy to see such precision and strong bow… for the next challenge he was going to need it.
"Alright everyone, let's start our prank. Gwen, if you would like to give the honors…" Courtney smiled as she took the makeup and offered it to the goth girl…
Gwen remained calm, and even remembered the words she wrote in her own diary… but after such a day, Trent didn't only mess up with her, she saw the look from the broken boy, she saw the scratching glass coffin… she felt she wanted revenge… and oh boy how she wanted on that moment.
"Alright. Let's do this." Gwen smiled as the whole team smiled like they became a group of sharks, and Gwen couldn't help but feel part of the family this time.
Chris continued watching every single detail of the last episode as he started to develop the script for the next episode of Total Drama, by seeing the keywords he could bring attention to the last challenge, and how he could make it very interesting for the next episode.
With a good time by himself and a good drink of coffee on his trailer, he enjoyed the luxury of having to enjoy his trailer 3 days before another challenge where he could push the campers to their limits.
"Okay, the joke I did about Courtney's grandmother can be potential for me to have some glares of the Killer Bass for a while, even about the seriousness of me saying Tyler still needs to deal with his fear after quitting the show." Chris watched all his scenes, just to make sure his hair was right and he was beautiful like always. "Still it was a fun episode…"
The sound of the telephone was ringing, which made Chris narrow his eyes. There was only a group of people who would be annoying him at that time of the night.
"What?" Chris asked as he could see that it was the producers deciding to probably be a pain on his ass… "If is about a complaint you ca… wait what? You liked the way I supported the Killer Bass to go beyond their traumas and give motivation for them growing up?"
Chris raised his eyebrows in surprise, since most of the ideas he had the producers were being a pain in his ass, and they couldn't stop complaining about censure and his sadistic nature.
"Well...thank you… Wait, what did you say? They are now offering a pay-per-view system over the show? THAT'S AWESOME." Chris shouted happily, as he couldn't help to be so proud of it. Pay-per-view means 2 things… The show became a huge success that everyone who is addicted now wants to see more about every contestant and wouldn't need to edit a special program for them. With that popularity, it also means, merchandise. "Please tell me we have merchandise… Wait… we already run out? What was the product? Shirts of Killer Bass and Screaming Gopher Flags? That looks a bit lame, but successful, hey, what about we make a shirt with both flags but each flag with the names, and a risk on the names of the eliminated? Yeah, I know I'm a genius… oh, you don't need it… that much? I'm so happy, have a great night everyone…"
At the time Chris finished his call phone… He got the best-satisfied smile he could ever have… he got a raise and 3 more contracts… It seems Total Drama is going to have another season, and he is eager for it.
Now he just had to enjoy turning on his television at the trailer and see if the pay-per-view was already working. If the pay-per-view works that great, they can turn it into bonus feature episodes to sell on DVD and that would be another great hit.
And from seeing the Boys' cabin of the Screaming Gophers… Chris noticed there was something different on there… why there was crowded on there? Where is the sound?
Until…
"AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH." The terrifying scream from one of the campers was enough to make Chris go near his own television to see in detail what was happening, and oh boy, what a first way to make an impression. And laugh towards the suffering of Trent like heard the best joke ever told.
(Screaming Gopher – Boy's cabin)
Trent was having a very peaceful as a group of people opened quietly the door of the cabin, and slowly, almost soundless, every single one of the silhouettes tip-toed towards the sleeping boy who seemed so happy to be in peace.
The shadows glanced at each other, as one of them approached into their positions. Some went outside, while one of them remained on the place, and carefully caressed his face… slowly, as peaceful as it is…
And at the time the drowsy guitarist opened one of his eyes, to see Katie with white makeup and black lipstick and shadows on her face… It clearly made him wake up.
"AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH." Trent quickly went up from his bed and just saw that Katie wasn't the only one, Duncan and DJ were also there, and for fear of Trent, they were all using Mime makeup. "AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH."
Trent immediately jumped from his bed and quickly went to slam the door with his body, and in panic left the place.
Cody and Owen woke up by the scream Trent had made.
"Katie?" Cody asked as he was still tired and his vision blurry…
Katie waved at him in silence and even gave a soundless blow kiss to the geek who was still confused about what was happening. Cody stared at Owen who was still trying to understand what was happening, but after a few seconds, they decided to shrug and go back to sleep.
"AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH." Trent screamed as he started to run away, but suddenly Bridgette and Geoff were all wearing black, and white clothing and their faces were all with makeup, Geoff even was without his hat… Running like the same way Trent which made him scream even in more terror. "THAT'S A NIGHTMAREEEEEEE."
Suddenly Trent saw Harold using the same makeup, who was running in his own direction, but suddenly the nerd made an impression that his face was slammed into the wall. While nearby, Ezekiel was drinking an imaginary coffee...Seeing Trent in panic, he made a motion that he was carrying an imaginary bow, and by taking an imaginary arrow he pulled the cord.
"NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO. AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH." Trent jumped as he quickly went in the other direction. "The docks, I need to go to the docks."
Trent went faster than he imagined, and he even managed to go to the place… until he found someone was sitting there…
"Gwen," Trent ran in her direction, as he wanted to see if she was fine among the demonic mimes who were possessing the campers. "Are you okay? Did you manage to escape them?"
The goth girl remained quiet, as Trent noticed something was wrong.
"Gwen, I'm sorry, I shouldn't have left you there…" Trent tried to apologize, but the more time the silence passed… he felt something was terribly wrong… "Gwen?"
Trent felt his face pale, and sweat through his entire body… By seeing the goth girl, not look in his direction, but at the time she got up, and finally turned to see her face him. Her entire face was covered with makeup, and making herself one of them.
"NOOOOOOOOOOOOOO. AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH." Trent shouted as his entire body couldn't contain the shock, and got shut down…
Trent fainted as his entire body went on the water…
At the time Trent woke up he was on his bed. Wet from the swim he had after he got from fainting. Seeing that nobody was there, and his friends Cody and Owen were sleeping peacefully… Trent finally could sigh in relief.
"Nightmares, man," Trent felt himself calming down…
But the peace couldn't last long.
"WHAT THE HELL JUST HAPPENED?" Heather slammed the door with a slam and at the time Trent looked at the Queen Bee, her entire face was covered with products and green mascara for her beauty of sleep…
"AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH." Trent screamed so loud that the entire camp could hear the panic from the guitarist who dared to hurt both of the fish's members.
And from such sweat vengeance, the Killer Bass couldn't help but laugh before sleep… With a new objective in their minds…
It was the first night… He will learn to conquer his fears… or they will traumatize him… whatever comes first. Next time he messes up, they won't be this merciful.
"I can't believe you signed the pay-per-view," Sky said as she couldn't believe her eyes, seeing her sister seeing the channel which was the focus of Total Drama cast… Her sister has been watching it since 3 a.m. "You need a life..."
"Of course I need. But after seeing the last episode? I wanted to see how Duncan and DJ are going to make Trent suffer… that dude messed up badly." The sister of the Olympics pointed out as she tried to reach one of the cameras in some parts of the cast. "Well, it seems that they aren't in their bedrooms, and nobody is in the Aquarium… where is… Oh, there they are… Wow, all the Killer Bass were reunited behind the cabins…"
"Hmmm?" Sky raised her eyebrow as she could see the team talking among themselves, but then she saw Ezekiel taking a lot of arrows and placing into a bow… A bow that she remembered seeing at the Olympics… "What he is going to do?"
And at the time Ezekiel shot the arrows to go directly at the tree… Her mouth got wide open from seeing that.
*Burp*
"Woah, that was a good aim…" The sister said as she ignored her sister's burps, she had no idea why suddenly Sky tended to burp at such inconvenient moments. "Oh, they seemed to plan revenge on Trent, what are they about to do?"
"Please, I hope that's not illegal. And unfair, I like how the Killer Bass are playing fair and winning the games with honor." Sky commented as she remembered how she admired Eva for being the powerhouse and yet the protector of the team… The bodybuilder needed to go quick on the surgery, or she would risk losing her leg. And that has been Sky's nightmare… being unable to participate and continue being an athlete.
"Pff, with Courtney and Ezekiel as pillars? Of course, Duncan wouldn't do it." The sister rolled her eyes, but from seeing Gwen holding makeup on her hand… and the smile from all Killer Bass. "Oh, this is going to be epic."
"I hope so…" Sky said as she went nearby to her sister to watch the videos, now refusing to say that her sister was right.
.
.
.
"AHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA." The loud laughs could be heard from the entire neighborhood. It wasn't just the sisters who were watching that moment, but it seemed all their neighbors were enjoying seeing the guitarist running in panic from a fear that he hadn't conquered.
"Oh come on, it's just Heather, Trent." Sky's sister commented as she was making fun of the poor guitarist. "Well at least you are really a screaming Gopher, so SCREAM GOPHER, SCREAM."
"SCREAM," Sky shouted in agreement with her sister, as the duo seemed to be enjoying a good experience with the boy who made the hell of two of their favorite characters last longer.
"Dawn, sweetie, did you manage to drink tea at this hour?" The father was tying the knot of his suit, and looking well for the beauty of nature giving him her blessings for another good night of work. He seemed to be ready to go on another patrol at night and help the rangers of the forest to have a peaceful time to enjoy their work of working for the forest.
"Yes, father. This has enough to make me have good energy to watch for 2 hours…" Dawn replied as she was enjoying the good time before her father would go to work.
"Good, Mother Nature made me sign this pay-per-view for us to watch around when we get home. Your mom went ahead, so she may be cooking something for the teachers around the caves. So we will be out for the rest of the night and will come back in the afternoon." The father explained as he pointed at the tree near the door. "Mother nature told me that it would be an interesting time to sign it, and to enjoy ourselves… I still feel pity for the boy who had to suffer an almost death…"
"I know father," Dawn commented that a good part of her felt the pain of mother nature being used in such a cruel way. "Mother nature is telling me to watch it because Ezekiel is doing his best to vent his fears and insecurity over the trauma he just had…"
"Then do it…" The father said as he looked at the television. "I have to confess that firstly I wasn't that interested to have such thing in this place… but now I found a very interesting way how the groups develop themselves around nature. Now, I gotta go…"
"Have a nice trip, father," Dawn commented, as the sound of the door closing, and her eyes were watching Ezekiel sitting nearby the tree… "Mother nature, who is it?"
The silence of the leaves was enough to make the aura reader girl nod her head in agreement.
"It was a good idea… Having Izzy talk about it was the best decision… she was the one who managed to make him feel like himself again… So maybe, he would find a way to make himself calm…" Dawn took another sip of her tea… As she glanced at the events of what was going to happen. "What are they planning?"
Dawn remained quiet until the sound of a water drop made her raise her eyebrow.
"What do you mean it's a surprise?" Dawn looked in confusion, as she decided to keep watching the pay-per-view.
.
.
.
"HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA." The sweet laugh of the nature aura reader could be heard from the garden and even the trees near the house… And from the trees… The owls seemed to be laughing as they hooted from also knowing the events said by Mother Nature.
"I'm going to kill Chris." The rough voice said as he kept working on the ground… His rough face showed nothing more than anger for seeing such a terrible thing on television. "He shouldn't have gone so far."
"Now now honey." The female voice caught the attention of the said man, who turned his head to see a very well matured woman, helping to carry the oranges. "While I think we should beat the crap of the host of the show, we should have faith in our little boy, Ezekiel overcome difficult challenges, and even fought a bear with his team… I'm sure the Killer Bass will have his back like always."
The father remained quiet… as he still decided to plant even more vegetables to help around the farm… Since after the show started, the family has received a lot of good calls and orders for them to plant and sell their oranges across Canada…
"Yeah, at least we didn't need to do that talk to him, and I'm so thankful for that." The father sighed in relief and even chuckled to see the reaction of his son dealing with the mature talk.
"Me as well, those girls really knew how to make him feel wanting to die of embarrassment." The mother smiled as the duo remained walking and working together to fulfill their quota.
"I'm still wondering if was really a dream. I mean, that Izzy girl really could have done that…" The father commented that suddenly he felt the good force of a shovel on his head.
"Oh look at that, a man who shouldn't be thinking such things near the wife… Now, go take the milk of the cow, and fix the roof… Man of the house." And with that, the mother walked away with a smirk on her face…
"I should have kept my mouth shut…" The owner of the Orange farm lamented as he took the shovel and went back to work… But not without looking at the horizon one last time. "I may not have been the best father to teach you how things work around this word Zeke… But I hope you find the happiness you truly desire on this show… and with the friends you have right now… At least I know that I can work in peace."
The sound of his voice was the clear show of Pride a father had for his son… after knowing the painful decisions everyone had to come across… It was the right time to go against their fear…
"Should I have the courage to give a try to see a public school? Or should I refuse and not relieve losing another member of my family again?" That was the last question the patriarch of the family had to ask himself, before going back to work…
The show clearly has changed his life… and different from the cannon… this time was for the better.
