NOTE: Consider this episode as a point in between this episode and the next one.
The campers were at the cafeteria eating everything they could at the buffet and they couldn't stop looking at the buffet table. It had a lot of delicious food in front of them from pizza, tacos, sandwiches, a giant cake, fruits of all kinds and a chocolate fountain among other foods you can imagine.
"This is amazing! I can't stop from looking at all this food!" Yuji happily said as he took a lot of food.
"Neither I! I hope this will go forever! Right, Pikachu? Ash said as he also took a lot.
"Pika-chu!" Pikachu said but a bit more calmly than his trainer.
"Cute partner, such as Fushiguro's dogs!" Yuji said with some.
"And I hope you two bastards learn how to calm yourselves." Zora said as he left towards the table, though Ash and Yuji were still enjoying themselves.
0000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000
"To think I would have some relaxation in this place" Zora said in an annoyed tone.
0000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000
"What's that guy's problem?" Ash asked with some food in his mouth. "I wouldn't reject this opportunity at having a buffet with all of this food and not having a bit of fun." Ash said as he swallowed that food into his stomach.
"Pika-pi." Pikachu more or less agreed with his trainer.
0000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000
"We won't have this opportunity for a long time, so Zora can chill out." Yuji said in a carefree tone and then thought, "I wonder why he has such a lone wolf-like attitude. Someone close to him died to make him that way?"
0000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000
On a table we are watching Anne and Skout talking about their adventures.
"So are you saying you were in a world full of talking amphibians?" Skout asked.
"Yes, me and my best friends were in Amphibia for several months, some things were harsh but it helped me understand true friendship and courage, I already miss Sprig, Polly and Hop Pop." Anne said with some sadness in her tone.
"I understand what you feel, Anne, I miss my friend the Nomad of Nowhere, you should meet him, you would like him!" Skout said excitedly while blushing a bit at Anne.
"I would like to do that, by the way do you have other friends aside from the Nomad?" Anne asked curiously.
"Well, maybe the Dandy Lions, though I left them because they don't want to understand that the Nomad is a good guy." Skout said.
"Ouch, sounds harsh, sorry for that." Anne said with comprehension in her tone.
"It's ok, I am working on that, if it's possible after the show you can show me Amphibia, The Nomad would like to visit that place." Skout said with enthusiasm.
"Not sure, since the portal got closed after Sasha, Marcy and I returned to our world after we defeated the Core, though I can get to meet The Nomad." Anne said with curiosity.
"¡Gladly!" Skout agreed while blushing at Anne though she quickly slapped her cheeks a bit.
0000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000
"To my parents, my best friends Sasha and Marcy and hopefully everyone in Amphibia if they are also watching this, I am going to fight to reach this far for you guys!" Anne said with a determined expression.
0000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000
Then Peterson approached them to talk with them.
"Man, and I used to hate frogs and now they are my favorite animals. I wish we were called "Killer Frogs" together.
"Or even better we could be on the same team!" Skout said.
"What's wrong with our team, Anne?" Peterson interrupted the conversation.
"Nothing, we were just talking about Skout's team name."
"Oh, ¿Really? For a moment I thought you said you wanted to be on the other team, betraying us in the process!" Peterson was getting angrier, almost about to shout at the entire cafeteria.
"No, youre wrong, I never said that." Anne quickly defended herself, not letting Peterson intimidate her.
"Thank goodness, I almost overreacted, enjoy your dinner girls, but be careful of saying our team names in vain in front of my person again." Peterson smiled and then left them alone while Anne and Skout were a bit terrified of that scene.
0000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000
"It's not that hard to get along with those children because I am also a father, besides this is the first thing we should know about surviving in these shows." Peterson said in a confident tone.
0000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000
"That man is creepy, I don't have a good feeling about him." Anne said with a creeped look.
0000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000
Niffty was looking at Jack eat his dinner, and she was drooling on her food but Seras quickly intervened. Niffty was attracted to Jack's looks.
"Um, Niffty?" Seras asked.
"¿Yes?" Niffty asked back.
"You're drooling over your food." Seras answered and then Niffty looks at her food and quickly cleaned with her napkin, though some of the food got stuck in the napkin.
"Sorry, I guess I can't stop looking at him, I've never saw such a handsome guy like Jack." Niffty told Seras about Jack.
"Well, he's handsome, but I think you could find someone better, my master looks better than him for me." Seras said.
"More for me, then." Niffty said with some glee. "Oh, Jack." Niffty at this moment was blushing and has a heart on her only eye again while Seras looked concerned for her.
0000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000
"I can't stop when I look to a bad boy, specially handsome bad boys" Niffty said as if she was daydreaming. "Jack has such a perfect demonic aura that I hope I can get through to know better and if he gets in love with me, it will be better!" Niffty said excitedly.
0000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000
"A bit worried for Niffty, I had been here just one day and I feel we can best friends as long as we are here, though I worry her crush on Jack won't be reciprocated." Seras had a worried look but then thought "Though I can help her impress Jack before anyone else does that."
0000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000
Tyr'ahnee looked at her food and then Megamind sat close to her with his own tray and looked a bit curious why he decided to become a "hero" as he said earlier at the dock and then looked close at his watch.
"Nice watch, where did you buy it?" Tyr'ahnee asked Megamind.
"Nowhere, I made it myself." Megamind answered.
"Really, that's amazing." Ty'rahnee looks amazed by hearing that.
"It's more than just a watch, though I don't want to show its true potential, since it can be dangerous in the wrong hands." Megamind said.
"Oh, come on, from a martian queen to an alien refugee, it's not wrong to hide the true potential of your inventions since if it helps to win a game like this, you get it? Probably you would use it to protect yourself if some enemy appears from nowhere. Just saying" Tyr'ahnee said in a convincing tone, though Megamind has some doubts.
"Not sure, that would be cheating and I didn't come to this show to do that." Megamind said.
"Or maybe, you could use it to out cheat the real cheaters that could be on this game." Tyr'ahnee said in a convincing tone while Megamind thinks about it.
0000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000
"Maybe Tyr'ahnee has a good point." Megamind thought about it then he looks at his watch and then thinks about it again. "Maybe I can be using my inventions once per challenge or twice to make it fair."
0000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000
"Convincing Megamind was easier than I thought and if things get better maybe I can get an alliance with him to get far in this game, since aliens have to be together even if I am a queen and he was a former villain and maybe I can turn someone close to me very jealous." Tyr'ahnee said with a devious look.
0000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000
Anissa has taken a lot of food which Tron takes notice of. She decided to take some the same quantity as Anissa, then they looked at each other.
"Why are you looking at me that way?" Anissa looks at Tron.
"Not sure, why do you want to eat that much? Tron answered and then asked Anissa that question.
"I need to eat a lot because I want to win for this planet, this universe and the Viltrum Empire's sake. you don't need a lot because of your tiny stomach." Anissa answered to Tron indirectly insulting her.
"Excuse me, miss white and clear? I need to eat because I need to eat and win this game because I am better than everyone else!" Tron angrily said.
"¿Really? Don't make me laugh, stupid girl! I am from the Viltrum Empire! I've been training for this multiverse survival since I was little. No mere living being can compare with me and even less someone like you who is cranky and competitive, you are just a clear example why this planet has no future!" Anissa exclaimed.
Then Tron looked at it like a challenge and then she started eating like crazy and then she opened her mouth "Let's see if you can keep me while eating!" Tron said as she continued eating, which made Anissa fall for her game and follow her pace while some of their teammates looked worried and scared for them.
0000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000
"This planet has no future, this universe has no future either, and this multiverse even less! They will thank the Viltrum Empire when we conquer everything in this multiverse if is possible after I win this." Anissa said in an angry tone.
0000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000
"Ugh! I hate that woman! She is going to pay for insulting me that way! And then Zora said I would be best friends with her. No way!" Tron said furiously not realizing that Zora was sarcastic at that moment.
0000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000
"Is it me or some of my teammates kind of chaotic right now?" Shawn asked, a bit worried.
0000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000
Shawn was meeting with some of his teammates and talks with them.
"They are a bit crazy." Shawn tells Anais, Rigby and Retsuko.
"There is the possibility this could be the crazy team right now." Anais said.
"I am afraid to be with them right now, they could make this environment more concerning right now." Retsuko said in a fearful tone.
"Relax dudette, maybe they'll calm down tomorrow. After all, we could rely on them for the first challenge anyways." Rigby said without any worry.
"But what if one of them causes trouble?" Anais asked back.
"We could easily vote for one of them." Rigby said without any concern as he took a seat.
The others took a seat but then Anissa and Tron took more trays driving Ash and Yuji to their seats.
"And I thought Director Ton could be loud." Retsuko muttered.
"I am glad my mother isn't here to watch this either." Anais said a bit nervously.
Niffty quickly went towards the food mess to clean up quickly. Even she brought a broom and a dustpan.
"When did she bring that cleaning stuff?" Shawn asked.
"Beats me." Rigby said then he looks closely at the scarf. "Um, dude, don't you think you should take that off?"
"I guess later." Shawn said while getting weird looks from his teammates.
0000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000
"Don't want to judge but why does this guy need that scarf that much?" Rigby asked, a bit confused.
0000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000
"I need that scarf, if there is a challenge regarding sports, it can be really useful." Shawn said while holding his scarf.
0000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000
King was in the bar area of the cafeteria, of course there aren't alcoholic drinks since they are in a familiar audience rated television show, but she could improvise, she was serving different drinks, she just served in front of Hank who was sitting in front of her. Hank started drinking.
"And what do you think?" King asked Hank about the drink.
"Not bad, it tastes good." Hank answered sincerely.
"Thanks, I am glad to have some talent for that, aside from fighting, of course." King said with a smile. "Unfortunately most of those creeps from the King of Fighters tournament which I won once, took my champion title when they found out I was a girl." King said with a crossed look when she remembered that.
"So why are you in this show?" Hank asked.
King was silent for a bit but she did trust Hank.
"I need the money for my little brother's Jan who is currently in the hospital. Some friends of mine are helping me to pay for the operation he needs but I want to help as well since he is my little brother and the only family I have right now." King answered a bit sadly.
"I'm sorry to hear that. Hospitals can be f* greedy and expensive." Hank said.
"It's ok, he's doing fine at least, and you? You said you came here for some relaxation?" King asked.
"Yes, sometimes my job at the DEA stresses me, specially lately, having to deal with those dealing motherf* that had appeared lately, especially that "Heisenberg"! So they suggested that I should be in this place. I had no idea I would be in this competition but I have no choice, though the money can be useful." Hank said.
"Oh my…" King said with a shocked and concerned look towards Hank.
"If I win, I could take some real vacations with my wife, my in-laws, some of my friends at the DEA. Though obviously I will help you with your brother's operation." Hank said with pure pride that he will win.
"Well, thank you." King said.
Reina overheard that conversation and she rolled her eyes.
0000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000
"Seriously, why waste an opportunity to be a renowned fighter just to own a bar? Though trying to save her little brother, I can relate, I wish I could've done the same for my father." Reina said, a bit crossed. "Though if she is a fighter, we better have the best moment to prove that, even though I am stronger than her." Reina said with a cocky tone. "Just wait for it."
0000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000
"I think this competition is going to be easy for me, but making new friends can be useful to get far in this game, I didn't knew that this was a competition at first but with the right allies I could get far, and yes, I want to help King help her brother with his operation, so it's a win-win for us." Hank said with a proud tone.
0000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000
Ryuko looks at Satsuki a bit angry while holding her tray as Satsuki is taking only a cup of tea with a few cookies and Light looks at her a bit confused. Jasmine gets close to her.
"Hey, do you mind if I am with you?" Jasmine asks Satsuki.
"I don't mind at all." Satsuki said while looking at her cup.
"Thanks." Jasmine said.
Light gets close to Ryuko.
"It seems you don't like that girl that much." Light tells Ryuko as he looks at her.
"It's not that, it's just we have some pending issues, just that." Ryuko answers to Light.
"Well, can you tell me why you are mad at her?" Light asks Ryuko.
"No, I am not in the mood. I just came here to compete and not think of her." Ryuko answers honestly though a bit angry.
"Come on, we are teammates, I could help you eventually." Light says as he tries to convince Ryuko.
"No thanks, I just wanna focus on the competition and I don't want to make any mistakes as long as I am here." Ryuko said
Light is a bit annoyed but he knows he can make her change her mind eventually.
0000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000
"My relationship with Satsuki? Well, you are going to find it anyways, but I guess this a good opportunity for us to be here in this stupid show, I will get my opportunity to beat her fair and square. I will wait for that." Ryuko said.
0000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000
"That Satsuki girl, I didn't mentioned before but just like some other people, it looks I can't get rid of her that easily since she would find out my true nature as soon as possible, so I will probably need Ryuko's help in order to get rid of her, so I can win and expand my word as Kira." Light said with a determined tone and a proud look.
"Another interesting rivalry, you will have some good rivals, Light." The mysterious voice said.
0000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000
Sometime after the dinner, the campers were asleep in their cabins, then in the middle of the forest, a bright light appeared in the sky. Coming from that light, a mysterious figure fell from the sky.
It was a yellow and green gummy looking alligator with a brown gummy cowboy hat, had a serious but confused expression.
"Where?" The alligator asked to himself "Where am I?"
Who is that mysterious alligator, you will find out eventually.
