Total Drama: Across the Multiverse

by StaticShock01

Chris returns for yet another season in what may be the most insane one yet. 69 contestants! 9 winners from the previous seasons! 28 network picks! 28 audience picks! Which contestant will come out of this madness!(52/98 initial contestants remaining, 119/165 overall) UPDATE: The teams join the Time Patrol in fixing history across the multiverse!

16. Emerald Rush

A/N: The first actual challenge of the season begins! What world will this colorful cast go to first?

IMPORTANT NOTE FOR FF DOT NET READERS: There's an issue where some chapters are not showing up properly for some reason with the error "story not found". There's nothing I can do on my end to fix it other than trying to reupload it which sometimes doesn't work. If that happens, I also have the story posted on AO3. My name there is the same as the one here.

Reviews:

G09F17R02: I'm probably going to make the duels a best of 3 or 5 so you might see it. Gotta rewatch Zexal though(and this time all the way through as I never finished it the first time around). Thank Bonds Beyond Time and the Tag Force Special game on PSP for this idea(this game really should have been a US release instead of just an English Patch). Action Duels will probably be there too since I really liked that concept from Arc-V.

Thenewsubwayguy: Yeah, those 10's abilities are one of the biggest reasons why I wanted them all to compete after watching the show. It's when the show really started going insane with the abilities that I chose to put all of them in. Those guys could do anything with skills like that and they decided to brings that insanity in basketball of all things lol.

Really wanted Miles to be there to be honest. The same way I did Monkey. Unfortunately, RNG said no to either of them.

And yeah, looking back, the amount of time it took me to finish that season was insane. This is a different beast to tame though.

Chris was seen standing in front of the "mansion" that the teams were in.

"Last time on Total Drama Across the Multiverse! A plethora of contestants, both old and new were brought on for another season! Our biggest one yet! In terms of both contestants and introductions! Although at first it was going to be 69, thanks to some mistakes, with some of them being no fault of my own, the numbers switched. Now it's a whopping 96!" Chris recapped.

Footage of several contestants making their introductions was seen.

"And to get their hearts pumping before we really kicked things off, we gave them introductory challenges! Three portals would open to three different locations, where they would race in each one. I said that the last person to finish would get eliminated, but that was a lie! That was done more to encourage a bit of competition early on! And boy did it! And hey, we got to see an idea of what some of our newbies can do too!" Chris said.

Footage of the contestants in the three different locations, one of the sets of contestants having them sing "Escape from the City", another set singing "Chain" and the third "Go" was shown.

"Oh yeah! Forgot to mention that musicals are back too! Glad to see most of them take a liking to it! Because it's more ratings to hear some of them show off their horrible, or in the case of Shiro, Sucy and Kuroko, uninspired singing!" Chris said.

"But at the end, it was revealed that each of these three portals and groups would all be teams! That's right! The same people they were competing against would be the same ones that would have to work together. Hope they can work together, because it's not going to be pretty for them if they don't." Chris said.

Footage of Kagami and Albedo arguing along with the discourse between Haizaki and Launch along with him getting punched by "Duncan" who was actually Nimona was shown.

"It's not all bad though. Looks like Isagi's on the right track." Chef said.

Footage of Isagi and others taking the notes of their team's strengths and what each of them can do was shown.

"Maybe. We'll see if Isagi's little plan can secure them a victory today in this challenge. Or if that arguing's going to continue. Right here, right now on Total….. Drama…."

"Whoever's yelling, keep it down! I'm trying to get my beauty sleep!" Rei was heard calling out.

Chris pulled out a megaphone. "ACROSS THE MULTIVERSE!" Chris yelled out.

Yelling was heard from Akko and Lotte before Sucy, annoyed, covered her ears.

"MORTY! SHUT THE HELL UP! It's just Chris!" Rick said as Morty was scared out of his sleep too.

*Total Drama Across the Multiverse Intro Plays*

Cameras started appearing in random spots around the small island, one of them popping up below an unsuspecting Furuya, who was practicing his pitching form.

Heloise pressed a button as the boats changed to a plane.

The scene changes to being on board the plane where a clapperboard was snap shut before the view goes throughout the plane.

"Dear mom and Dad I'm doing fine."

The view changes to the camera going through the streets of East Side City as Ringo was seen skating along with Ikki, with Ringo giving a smile to the camera before it was quickly sent upwards, going through a portal where there was a large Tower where ships were seen flying to and from said Tower.

"You guys are on my mind."

After going past the Tower, another portal was seen, teleporting the camera where Owen was underwater trying to get the treasure chest that was there only to be confronted by a shark. A shark that Jasmine punched with Owen giving a thumbs up in appreciation, only for Jasmine to unknowingly take the treasure.

"You asked me what I wanted to be and now I think the answer is plain to see."

Ben, as Ripjaws, goes behind her in an attempt to take it, but accidentally scares her causing her to throw the treasure upwards onto a boat, having it land right in the hands of MacArthur who grinned at her unexpected, but welcomed triumph only for Sly to sneakily take it from her, with her only being able to shake her fist at him as he was already getting away with the help of Rex.

"I wanna be famous!"

The camera changed locations again, this time in West City as the God of Destruction, Beerus, along with Whis, Makoto Kino and Murasakibara were all enjoying dessert only for Haizaki to take a piece of cake that Sebastian made off an unsuspecting Makoto's plate with Makoto, Murasakibara, Sebastian and Beerus not too happy about it. Haizaki was smiling, but not for long as he would suffer a painful hit in the crotch and fall to the ground, writhing in pain from a stray golf ball from Priya who ran over quickly to make sure he was okay and apologize.

"I wanna live close to the sun!"

In the Courtyard, Dragonfly Jones was taunting his opponent, who was Karin with the "come at me" gesture before suddenly dancing and then deciding to telegraph an obvious kick, allowing her to counter and kick him upwards into the air and unknowingly into a portal that appeared, causing Yulaw, Becky B. and the Older Bennett to facepalm.

"Go pack your bags 'cause I've already won"

The camera then changed to a futuristic version of New York in the year 2105, where Miyuki, Todd, Toxsa and Mikey were playing video games only for Dragonfly to crash through Cody Jones' penthouse and knock over Serling who falls on the VR device that was being used to project the game to the four.

"Everything to prove nothing in my way, I'll get there one day"

The camera changed to a grassy area where Eijun was energetically practicing his bat swings with Monta encouraging him only for him to swing the bat too hard, throwing it and almost hitting Din and Rally who were both doing target practice. Although both ducked, the bat's victim was Midorima's lucky item which was a small alarm clock, which caused him to yell in horror after realizing what just happened.

"Cause I wanna be famous!"

Both Rei and Reimu, in their shrine maiden outfits were drinking tea as Rei tried to teach a confused Reimu about some of the pop culture of the world only for a basketball to come flying their way, hitting both of them in the face. They both angrily looked at the possible culprits, with Aomine casually pointing at Kagami, even though Aomine was the one that did it, trying to see if he could copy Kuroko's Ignite Pass Kai which failed.

"Na na na na na na na na na na na na na na na!"

Before he could even attempt to explain himself, the two were already chasing Kagami with Aomine smiling only to be scared by Kuroko himself, who appeared out of nowhere, causing Aomine to run away. Though it was revealed to have actually been Nimona as she laughed.

"I wanna be, I wanna be, I wanna be famous!"

As X and Lanolin were collaborating together for plans for their team, Axl was launched by Tangle via her tail as he performed some trick shots on some Dynamite that Rocky threw in the air, causing an explosion to happen. Though Axl's landing wasn't pretty as he fell through a tree, falling on an unsuspecting Mayuzumi, who wasn't happy that his reading was disturbed.

"I wanna be, I wanna be"

As Tangle went over to check on Axl and apologize, Luz and Akko were next to another tree as Akko was reading a Good Witch Azura book, amazed at how similar she was to Shiny Chariot, giving Luz her Shiny Chariot card, who was also equally amazed at the card. Though their reading would be interrupted as Chris would be heard calling them all out with a microphone connected to speakers.

"I wanna be famous!"

They, and several others ran to the World Tournament arena. Zak S. was running only for Zak M. to use his Fang's grappling hook to trip him up and laugh as he ran past him with Zak S. retaliating with the same thing, but in his case, also pulling off Zak M.'s pants, revealing his red and white boxers with hearts on them, the colors also notably reversed compared to Zak S.'s and was embarrassed as he tried to put his pants back on.

Many of the contestants whistled the TD tune as Marinette and Adrien got closer to one another only to be scared unintentionally by Kuroko who appeared out of nowhere and was talking to Hinata, with both of their heads being grabbed by Kagami and Kageyama respectively as the two prodigies looked at one another with a competitive edge. The same could be said for Zak S. and Zak M., Albedo and Ben, and Kise and Haizaki as a blimp with the words "Total Drama Across the Multiverse" were shown overhead before Hiruma shot two rifles in the air, scaring everyone.

After Chris yelled out "Across the Multiverse", Chris then shouted, "RISE AND SHINE EVERYONE!"

Groaning was heard from several people before they all started to sleepily put on clothes to wear outside of their bed clothes.

"Good morning. I hope you all had a comfortable night's rest." Sebastian said to the rest of his teammates on the Storm Kings as they appeared.

"Good morning." Bachira replied back, rubbing his eyes as he stretched.

Midorima wiped his glasses before saying, "I'd hardly call these accommodations comfortable." He then puts on his glasses.

"I do not understand why you all feel the need for a comfortable place to sleep. Considering how long I believe we'll be here, you'll get used to it eventually." Sebastian said.

"I hope you're right. That was terrible." Isagi said.

"All I know is the food better be worth it." Bobo said.

"Hope so. If the budget didn't go here, then it had to have gone somewhere." Sly said.

"Knowing Chris, probably not." Courtney said.

"If the budget didn't go to the food or this, then where the heck did it go?" Octavia asked.

"Maybe the challenges?" Huey D. suggested.

"I can think of several things. And all of them are for Chris." Heather said.

The team headed downstairs, with the Wave Breakers right behind them, joining the Radical Rats.

Albedo wasn't happy. Although that isn't much considering who it is. It was the fact that he looked unhappier than usual.

"I'm not going to ask him to avoid getting into a fight and destroying the only place we have to stay, but what happened to him?" Ben asked Kurt.

"Do you even have to ask? I think we all feel that way. It's just not all of us are expressing it like he is." Kurt said.

"Ahhh! Kuroko! What happened to your hair!?" Akko said, pointing at it after seeing his awful bed hair.

"What?" He said, confused, before grabbing the top of his head.

"Forget the hair. Where the heck did he come from? I could have sworn someone else was next to me a second ago." Natsu said.

"I was here the whole time." Kuroko said.

"Seriously!?" Natsu said, surprised.

"Yes."

"And I thought I looked bad." Reagan said. "Guess you had a bad night's sleep too."

"I guess." Kuroko said.

"It's safe to say everyone did." Octavia said.

"What about him?" Mr. Wolf asked, thumbing to Din, who grunted.

"That sounds like an 'I don't like it.'" Rocky said.

"I guess that's one benefit of being a robot. You guys don't have to sleep." Tangle said to Axl and Jenny.

"Not exactly. I'm not sure about those four, but I still need rest." Jenny said.

"Same here. We still rest in beds or capsules to recover our minds and bodies." X said.

"It appears I'm the only one that doesn't require sleep." Sebastian said.

"Wait, you really can't sleep? Why not?" Ruby R. asked.

"Maybe it's because he's….. a demon." Mona said.

"A demon?" Becky F. said before giving Mona a smile. "Look, I know not everything here is normal but there's no way-"

"What an observant child. Yes, I am a demon." Sebastian said, smiling at her.

"Wait. Are you serious!?" Kagami asked, shocked.

"Yes. I would have no reason to lie to you about something so trivial." Sebastian said.

***Confessional***

Eliza(Storm Kings):

"A demon butler? I genuinely didn't expect to learn something like this. Interesting."

***End Confessional***

***Confessional***

Toxsa(Wave Breakers):

"A demon butler, students that want to become witches, a racing team with cars that I'm assuming can do things just as good or better than Myron's, an actual professional Grand Prix racer, a former boxing champion, seven of the best basketball players in Japan, a shapeshifter, robots, a kraken, three people from the 19th century, two guys that can turn into super-cool aliens. And one just as super-cool that guy that plays video games. Yep, I think I can hold my own."

"What? You thought I was gonna say some stuff like 'I'm in over my head?' Are you crazy? Dude, no way. I'm lovin' it! This isn't just bravado talking. I really do think I can hold my own."

***End Confessional***

"I'd hardly call what I experienced rest. These beds are garbage." Bass said.

"Can't say I disagree with you there. There has to be something we can do to make sleeping better." Lanolin said.

"Hey Isagi, is this what you guys had to experience in Blue Lock?" Kagami asked as they started to get outside.

"Not even close." Isagi said. "Even when I started off as second to last, things weren't much different. It was moreso the food options you had that got better the better your rank was along with some other incentives. Ego might seem like a madman when it comes to soccer but he doesn't treat his players like this."

"If that food we had during that Blue Lock event is anything to go by, then I totally believe you." Richie said.

"Morning everyone! Hope you guys had a good night's rest!" Chris said.

"You're joking, right?" Blake said. "You know what, I don't even know why I bother."

"These conditions aren't desirable for most if not everyone here. Can't you do something to change them?" Razer asked.

"Let me think about it." Chris said before giving his answer after a second passed. "No."

"Why not?" Razer asked.

"Because, why would I do that when there's other things the money can go towards? Like the challenges." Chris said.

"See? I told you guys." Huey D. said.

"Don't forget your own personal yacht." Weiss said sarcastically.

"That too. And a bunch of other cool stuff. Like my own personal cottage, that unlike this time, won't get destroyed like the last one because you guys won't have access to it!" Chris said, looking directly at Duncan when he said that.

"With how some of the others are, I should be the least of your worries about getting in to that cottage." Duncan said.

"Wow, you really are an unapologetic a[censored]hole aren't you?" Reagan said to Chris.

"Look, something is better than nothing. It was either that, or having you make your own places to stay like in Pahkitew Island. Shawn and Jasmine can tell you all about it." Chris said.

"No thanks. We'll stick with this." Shawn said.

"I wouldn't call this 'something' that's for sure." Luz said.

"We don't gotta sleep in those beds for a good long while at least. So what's on the menu today?" Bobo asked Chris.

"Your food will be served on the planes. You'll be able to eat while we fly to our first challenge! Teams, I need you guys to board a plane so we can get moving!" Chris said. "If there's something you need like clothes, weapons, equipment, whatever, grab it now! You've got five minutes!" Chris said.

"You mean we get to fly!?" Akko said.

"That's going to be amazing!" Hinata said.

"No it's not!" Owen said, attempting to run only to get tripped up by Heloise.

"Oops." Heloise said, even though it was completely intentional. Chef then hit him with a frying pan on the head and knocked him out.

"Owen has a fear of flying." Noah explained.

"Then if that's the case, why not have him come with us some other way, like portal him there?" Lotte suggested.

"That wouldn't be fun if one person got special treatment now would it?" Chris M. said.

"But we wouldn't treat it as that. I don't have a problem with it." Adrien said.

"Too bad I didn't ask for you guys' opinions." Chris M. said.

***Confessional***

Adrien(Radical Rats):

"I get it he's knocked out, but this still doesn't feel right."

***End Confessional***

***Confessional***

Kaz(Wave Breakers):

"All right! Our first challenge! I'm already stoked!"

***End Confessional***

***Confessional***

Diego(Wave Breakers):

"So we'll be eating on the plane huh? Cool! I hope the food's good. I'm ready to chow down."

***End Confessional***

***Confessional***

Akko(Radical Rats):

"This is going to be so cool! The four musketeers, on a trip across different worlds as we make new friends! I'm so excited!"

***End Confessional***

***Confessional***

Sendo(Radical Rats):

"All right. Time for some action! Now you're gonna see what I'm made of." He said, a confident grin on his face.

***End Confessional***

***Confessional***

Isagi(Storm Kings):

"Alright, our first challenge. Looks like we'll all get to have an idea of what everyone can do. Wonder if it'll be anything similar to what we did in the last challenge."

***End Confessional***

***Confessional***

Axl(Radical Rats):

"Let's do this! X, Zero and I are gonna show you what the Maverick Hunters can do!"

***End Confessional***

***Confessional***

Myron(Wave Breakers):

"With this being our first official challenge competing against one another, I don't expect things to be too orderly, especially with how many people are here. Still though, we should put our best foot forward and try to win. A strong start here is something we can build off of for future challenges."

***End Confessional***

***Confessional***

Cicini(Radical Rats):

"Okay! So it looks like this'll be our first challenge competing against one another. I'm not sure what'll be in store, but at the very least, it'll be a learning opportunity for me to really see what the rest of this team can do as well as the opposing teams."

***End Confessional***

After the ones that needed to got their things and/or changed clothes, they boarded the planes and they were off. While Chef piloted one of them, the other two pilots remained a mystery.

"Alright! I'm down to eat some-" Dewey started before seeing the food. "OH MY GOODNESS!" The pancakes had nails on them and the grits had "bacon" on them.

"Even on a plane, we get barely edible food." Cameron said.

"Grits look good at least." Aomine said.

"WAIT!" Cameron said. "DON'T EAT THAT!"

"I'm freakin' starvin' here. Unless you got somethin' else to eat." Aomine said before eating a spoonful and immediately spitting it back out. On Midorima's face. Who only sighed as he continued to listen to the horoscope for the day on his phone with earbuds in.

"I warned you." Cameron said.

"What the hell is this?" Aomine said.

"Wood, disguised as bacon, it would appear." Alejandro said.

"Even the toast sucks." Rex said as he tried to break it apart, only for it to fly out of his hands and into Riley's face, causing Todd to laugh.

"Ouch. That does not look good." Heloise said, eating actual edible grits and bacon bits with pancakes.

"That's easy for you to say when you've actually got somethin' good." Sendo said.

"True but, still doesn't change the fact that it still sucks." Heloise said.

"How does Chris expect us to consume this garbage!?" Albedo said.

"He doesn't." Noah said in the seat opposite of his next to Emma.

"Do you have to eat?" Tangle asked Axl who was in a seat opposite of hers.

"Fortunately, no." Axl said.

"The hell Chris!? I'm freakin' hungry here!" Kagami yelled.

"There's food right there." Chris said.

"No one's going to eat this. Is this your idea of a joke? Because I'm not laughing." Rei said.

"Sounds like a problem you're going to have to figure out then." Chris M. said.

"Are you kidding me!?" Rei said, upset.

"This is ridiculous!" Diana said in utter disbelief that Chris would serve them food like this.

"If it makes you feel any better, it'll get to a point to where you'll have no choice but to eat it. At least for me." Falcon said.

"Wow. That's really encouraging." Sucy said sarcastically.

"Hey, got to keep a positive mindset eh?" Rocky said, giving her a playful tap on her shoulder, sitting at the window seat next to Sucy.

"Please stop doing that." Sucy said.

"What? I never said it was the best option in the world." Falcon said.

"Well if that's the case, why aren't you eating it?" Sucy asked.

"Do you see what's on this food? No way." Falcon said.

"We might get some better food on our travels. In World Tour, many of the contestants got to eat food served around the world." Priya explained.

"Wait, really? Why didn't you tell me you guys got to do that? That sounds interesting." Emma asked Noah.

"Because most of it wasn't good." Noah said.

"Way to leave that detail out." Rei said to Priya.

"I didn't mean to leave it out! Honest!" Priya said.

"Everyone quit your whinin' and eat! You don't see Zee complainin'!" MacArthur said, eating the grits.

"How are you eating this?" Diana asked Zee.

"I just picked around the wood." Zee said, eating another non-wood chip spoonful of grits.

"How come I didn't think of that?" Kagami said.

"Should be easy for you to eat some grits, right fearless hero?" Rocky asked Puss who he was next to after hopping to the seat that he was in, to the annoyance of Sucy, who he unintentionally hit with his feet.

"Of course! Besides. I really am hungry." Puss said, eating around the wood.

"That's the spirit!" Rocky said, still having his bowl in his hand as he went back before stumbling on one of the seats and falling, the grits going on Sendo's head.

"Sorry! Good thing they weren't super hot." Rocky said.

After a few seconds, Sendo exploded. "COME 'ERE! I'M GONNA KILL YA!" Sendo said, putting down his bowl as Rocky's was still on top of his head, chasing after Rocky, who seemed like he was having fun during the entire ordeal, to the expense of some of the people that he stepped over.

"Would please sit down and stop acting like children?" Diana said.

"Well, there goes reading." Becky B. said, closing her book.

"Say that after you've gotten damn grits on your head!" Sendo said to Diana, still chasing Rocky around the plane.

"Stand still!" Sendo said before Rocky suddenly went over his head, pushing the bowl further down on his head, making him unable to see.

Sendo angrily tossed the bowl off, causing it to go on Zero's head, was grunted in annoyance as he took it off.

The next time Rocky passed through, Sucy tripped him up.

"Oops." Sucy said, pretending as if it was an accident.

"I got ya!" Sendo said, picking up Rocky by his jacket.

"You're not gonna kill me over a bowl of grits are you?" Rocky asked.

"No. A good ol' punch should be enough. Just ask Haizaki." Sendo said.

"Excuse me." Kuroko said, trying to get past Sendo.

"Huh?" Sendo said, confused before seeing Kuroko.

"Oh. My bad." Sendo said.

Rocky took this opportunity to toss his hat on Sendo's head, distracting him enough for him to loosen his grip enough for Rocky to force his way out of his grip, tumbling back and bumping into Kuroko, whose grits went all over Kagami's black shirt that was under the grey plaid shirt he was wearing unbuttoned.

"WHAT THE HELL MAN?" Kagami yelled.

"Sorry." Kuroko said.

"Jeez. I'm gonna go wash up. Where's the bathroom?" Kagami asked.

"I think it's that way." Adrien said, pointing him to the back of the plane seats where another section was.

"Thanks." Kagami said before getting up.

"Damn it!" Sendo said, throwing the hat off, which went on top of Rei's head.

"That is it!" Rei said, who had it.

She went to try and stop Sendo and Rocky, though it only ended with the three falling over each other as they got into a dogpile fight causing Kagami to fall as well along with Dragonfly.

"Get off me!" Kagami said.

"Get your hands off my jacket you'll tear it!" Rei said, more than likely saying that to Rocky more than anyone else.

"I'm gonna kill ya you ba[censored]d!" Sendo said.

"Come on man! I'm just tryin' to go to the bathroom!" Kagami said.

"Sit… DOWN!" Lucy said before grabbing Rocky off the ground.

"Uh oh." Rocky said.

"Thanks. Now-" Sendo started, getting up before Lucy stopped him.

"You too!"

"Not until I'm done with him!" Sendo said.

"You're done now!"

"We'll see about that." Sendo said before trying to get past Lucy only for Rei to knock him out.

"Blockheads." Rei said.

Dragonfly attempted to kick Rei only for her to hit him in the face, causing him to fall to the ground too.

"Now look at my clothes. They've got grits all over them. Thanks a lot Kagami." Rei said.

"HUH!? HOW IS IT MY FAULT?" Kagami shouted.

"Well you're the only one here that was covered in grits. It had to have come from you." Rei said.

"Sendo and Rocky were the ones running!" Kagami said. "If anything, it's on them and on Kuroko for not walking faster."

"What?" Kuroko said, confused as he had just finished washing hands from using the bathroom, scaring both Kagami and Rei.

"Where did you come from?" Rei asked.

"The bathroom." Kuroko said.

"When did you go to the bathroom?" Kagami asked, wondering how he didn't see him.

"It was while you guys were fighting." Kuroko said.

Kagami waves it off. "Whatever. I'm supposed to be going to the bathroom anyway. Before that whole thing with Rei and the others." He said before walking towards the bathroom.

"Hold on a second, don't put me into this. This wasn't my fault." Rei said, catching up to him as she intended on going to the bathroom as well to clean up.

"And it wasn't my fault either." Kagami said. "But the fact is, you were the one that got in the way of Sendo and Rocky for that to happen."

"So in other words, you're saying it's my fault we're covered in grits." Rei said, getting in Kagami's face.

"Yeah. You got a problem with that or somethin'!?" Kagami said, starting to get annoyed again, getting in Rei's face.

"Yes! These grits came from you!"

"It doesn't matter where they come from, we still have to get washed up regardless!" Kagami said. "And you're stoppin' me from movin'! Could you move back?"

"Wow, such a gentleman." Rei said sarcastically.

"How is that not being a gentleman? I'm just askin' you to move back." Kagami said as both continued to fight over simply trying to get to the door.

Rally opened the door.

"All one of you had to do was move to open the door. Was that so hard?" Rally said before going back to sit down.

"Thanks." Rei and Kagami said.

"After you." Rei said.

"Nah. You go on ahead." Kagami said.

"No, no I insist." Rei said, smiling.

"Just go ahead. Ladies first, right?" Kagami said.

"You got grits on you first, you should go." Rei said.

"Look, I'm saying you can go and you won't." Kagami said.

"And I'm saying you don't have to." Rei said.

Axl and Tangle pushed Rei and Kagami respectively forward, with Kagami going in first before Rei.

"At that rate, they were going to start arguing again." Tangle said.

"Start? They were already doing it again." Noah said.

"I get to travel to so many new and nice places. All I want is something peaceful! Doesn't have to be boring. But it shouldn't be this either! But they're lucky. If those grits got on my clothes it would have been a whole lot worse. As for Natsu, if this is how we're going to be travelling for the show, this is going to be a long show for him."

"Honestly, I was expecting a bit of discourse between some of us. Different ages, backgrounds, things like that play a factor in how someone can perceive someone else. It's only natural. It'll probably happen to me too. Not everyone will get along with every single person at first. And that's fine. But this? This is a whole lot worse. I really hope we can clean this up or this will cost us a lot of challenges."

"Wait, you're said you were done earlier right?" MacArthur asked Kuroko as he was getting ready to put away the bowl.

"Yes."

"But you didn't eat all of it! It got all over your friend Kagami." MacArthur said.

"I was full." Kuroko said.

"Full!? This is nothing!" MacArthur said. "You're telling me you can't eat a measly bowl of grits? This is why you're so small compared to the rest of us!"

"MacArthur." Sanders said, trying to stop her, knowing where this was going.

"Whatever." MacArthur said. "If you wanna be a small little wimp forever, I won't stop you."

MacArthur(Radical Rats):

"Everyone knows that to get bigger ya gotta eat. And that guy clearly hasn't done that enough. I'm not saying that to be hurtful. I'm tryin' to help! Honest! I'm just a little grumpy 'cause I didn't get my morning coffee. So, uh, if I came off a little too hard, sorry Kuroko."

"Wait a second. If Chef's flying the Rats' plane. Then who's flying this one and the other one?" Courtney asked.

"Let's find out. Not like we've got anything else better to do considering how the food sucks." Sly said.

***Confessional***

Huey D.(Storm Kings):

"Day two. The food's….. not good. But, I can say the relationships on the team are pretty good so far. Also wait…." He said before looking around. "There's a confessional on this plane? Huh. The more you know."

***End Confessional***

Sly, Dewey and Courtney all went to the front of the plane to see the pilot.

"Excuse me-" Courtney started.

"Yep?" The pilot started, turning around, revealing himself to be a duck that was wearing flight gear.

"Launchpad?" Dewey said, surprised to see him here.

"Dew! My man! Didn't expect to see you here." Launchpad said, holding his fist out for a fist bump.

"Me neither." Dewey said.

"Neither did I." Launchpad said.

"Wait, so you didn't expect to see me here and I didn't expect to see you here but you didn't expect to expect to see me?" Dewey said, confused.

"Uh… let's go with that!" Launchpad said.

"Well, if it's someone you know I guess he might be someone we could trust. For a second I thought Chris just hired someone for cheap." Courtney said.

"Funny story about that. Being a pilot for a reality TV show was the last thing I'd be able to say I'd add to my resume." Launchpad said.

Flashback

Chris met with one of the potential pilots after being heard that this pilot was someone who worked for a prestigious name like Scrooge McDuck(at least in this world)

"Okay, so it looks like you've got the reputation behind your name. So from the looks of things, there's no need for me to check that you've gone to flight school to get a license." He said before Chef checked that off the checklist.

"Yep! I've definitely gone to flight school!" Launchpad said.

"And are you comfortable flying several possibly unruly teens, kids, adults, and everything else in between on a plane, on reality TV?" Chris asked.

"Hey, you can count on me. I mean it shouldn't be that hard, right? It's like driving a bus on a field trip! Except it's in the air." Launchpad said.

"Sure. Whatever makes you comfortable." Chris said. "And last question!"

"Lay it on me! Don't make it a trick question though. I hate those questions!" Launchpad said.

"Are you willing to take significantly less money compared to what you usually get here?" Chris asked.

"How much are we talking?" Launchpad asked.

"Uh….. less. Can't give you a specific amount. Just know that it'll probably be less than what Scrooge pays you." Chris said.

"Sure! I'll take a bit of a pay cut. If it means doing a service to children, teens, and adults around the world, I'll do it!" Launchpad said proudly.

"Dude, it's just you flying a plan- you know what, you do you man." Chris said.

"Hey, you can count on me to do that last one." Launchpad said.

End Flashback

"For all you know, you could be paid pennies. I think you should have asked for a percentage or something when it comes to the pay cut." Courtney said.

"You know what? I could have negotiated my contract. Whoops." Launchpad said.

"That's not what I-"

"I'm no pilot but….. shouldn't you be paying attention to where you're going?" Sly asked.

"Hey, as long as we're still in the air it's fine. Besides, it's clear skies anyway. I checked before I started telling that quick story." Launchpad said as a green portal appeared behind him.

"Uh, that doesn't look like clear skies to me." Dewey said.

"You worry too much guys! I got this!" Launchpad said before turning and seeing the green portal and yelled before desperately turning to avoid getting sucked in.

"Phew. That was close." Launchpad said.

Meanwhile, Plane 3's pilot, who was Mr. Bixby for the Wave Breakers, saw the first plane go in the portal with the second one make a sudden turn.

"Uh oh. I'm not about to get sucked into a freaky wormhole. I gotta keep these kids safe!" Mr. bixby said before turning like Launchpad did. Though it was in a lot better control compared to Launchpad's sudden turn.

"Alright! Good news everyone! You're safe! Crisis averted! Bad news! Some of your friends got sucked in. Condolences." Mr. Bixby said.

"You don't think….." Richie started before he and Virgil started to look at some of the other veterans of the show to wonder if they were thinking the same thing.

Wild Canyon(Sonic Adventure 2)

A plane landed in a desert-like area, appearing from a portal.

"Look alive everyone! We have arrived!" Chris announced. Everyone from the Rats gradually got off the plane. Rei was no longer wearing her denim jacket while Kagami was no longer wearing his plaid shirt, Rei only having on the grey turtleneck shirt that was short sleeved along with the black jeans she was wearing before with a short brown belt. Kagami however, was still wearing his necklace.

"A desert? Are we really starting with the Egyptian challenge again?" Noah asked.

"No. While that was in the desert, we are not in Egypt." Chris said.

"That's right." A red Echidna said, appearing.

"My name's Knuckles. And I'll be the one to explain your challenge for today." Knuckles said.

Yulaw(Radical Rats):

"So our first challenge on this show will be explained by a talking animal. Just when I thought this show couldn't get any stranger."

***End Confessional***

"After everyone else gets here. We still have to wait for the other two teams to arrive." Chris said.

"They should have gotten here by now. What the heck are they doin'?" Chef said.

"We'll give them a minute." Chris said.

Those two planes, and by extension, teams, were off-track.

"Excuse me, but I actually think we were supposed to go into that portal." Chris P. said.

"What? I don't think so." Mr. Bixby said.

"Look, I know it sounds crazy, but we've been on a season of this show before. We've done things like travel through portals. That portal looked exactly like the ones we've been in before." Richie said.

"Listen, I know you might be tryin' to save your friends, but my job is to keep you safe! I don't do that, I get fired! And I can never live with seeing something happen to y'all! Now could you please have a seat! I'm not a good enough pilot to be able to do this while distracted or worried about other things at once yet. Haven't gotten that far in flight school yet." Mr. Bixby said.

"You mean you're flying a plane with several people on it, and you haven't even finished flight school yet!?" Hailey said.

"Yeah! Chris knows! But I'm still good enough to get the job done." Mr. Bixby said.

"Oh dear God. I might actually, actually die today." Reagan said.

"What do you mean by actually, actually?" Scott asked. "You've died before? Are you a zombie!?"

"No, I'm not a zombie! Look, don't worry about that now! We need to worry about this guy! I mean what does he think this is? Snakes on a Plane? You can't learn how to fly overnight with a Flight Simulator video game! If that was the case, Brett would probably be a master at flying." Reagan said.

"Does that mean I am?" Toxsa asked before several people looked at him.

"What? Just asking." Toxsa said.

"Wait, you play flight simulator games?" Scott asked.

"Just a couple of times. Though I guess fighter jets are completely different to actual airplanes." Toxsa said.

"If you knew they weren't the same why would you even bring that up? And why would you even ask something like that?" Tsukishama said to Toxsa and Scott respectively.

"As a fellow gamer myself, I had to." Scott said.

"You're asking about video games, when we could potentially die." Reagan said.

"You're making this sound really dark." Ruby G. said.

"How is that dark? That is a fact!" Dan and Reagan said simultaneously before both looked at each other after that awkward moment.

"Wait, weren't you the one that brought up something about flight simulator games first?" Chris P. asked Reagan.

"Alright! Listen up! No one's about to die, alright!? Now if y'all could please sit down! You're distractin' me! I told y'all I haven't gotten that far in flight school yet!" Mr. Bixby said, standing up to face them.

"The plane!" Myron said, pointing to the unmanned controls.

"I know about the plane alright? I'm the one pilotin' it!" Mr. Bixby said.

"No! He's talking about the controls! No one's on the controls!" Fiona said as they started to dip.

Mr. Bixby turned and saw that no one was on the controls before shouting in horror. He ran to get back on the plane before they went into the water and pulled back up, which was faster than any of them expected, causing several of the contestants, and even Bixby himself to get pulled back, with Bixby getting pushed back in his seat.

"I SHOULD HAVE JUST FOUND ANOTHER EXTERMINATOR JOB!" Dwayne yelled out.

"WAIT, YOU GOT FIRED?" Chris P. asked.

"YES! YES OKAY! I DID! I GOT FIRED FROM MY JOB AS AN EXTERMINATOR SO I CAME HERE TO TRY TO GET SOME MONEY UNTIL I CAN FIND ANOTHER EXTERMINATOR JOB! DO YOU KNOW HOW EMBARRASSING IT IS TO HAVE A DEGREE WITH VERMTECH AND WORK AT DELIVERY?" Dwayne yelled out as Bixby still tried to get control of the plane.

"PLEASE! PLEASE PULL UP!" Reagan pleaded Bixby. "I CAN'T HAVE MY DREAMS LITERALLY DIE! PLEASE!"

"WE'VE GOT DREAMS TOO YOU KNOW!" Kaz yelled as his back was on a seat, trying to hold on.

"YOU GUYS TOO!"

"I… WOULD IF Y'ALL WOULD STOP DISTRACTIN' ME!" Bixby said.

"WELL WHAT ELSE AM I SUPPOSED TO DO? I CAN'T HANDLE THE FACT THAT I'M ABOUT TO DIE BY JUST SITTING THERE AND HOPING NOTHING HAPPENS!" Reagan shouted.

"I CAN'T DIE YET! I STILL NEED TO FIND MY DREAM JOB! AND DREAM GUY! GOREM! DO SOMETHING!" Julie said.

Gorem transformed out of its ball form. "Grab onto me!" Gorem said.

"HOW IS THAT GOING TO DO ANYTHING!?" Tsukishima said.

"I DON'T SEE YOU COMING UP WITH ANY IDEAS!" Kageyama shouted.

"IF I DID IT WOULDN'T BE TRYING TO HOLD ON FOR DEAR LIFE TO A MINIATURE BALL!" Tsukishima shoted back.

"WAIT, DWAYNE!" Scott called out.

"WHAT IS IT?" Dwayne asked.

"WAS IT PIZZA DELIVERY?" Scott asked Dwayne.

"REALLY!? YOU BUFFOON! YOU'RE ASKING ABOUT HIS JOB WHEN WE'RE ABOUT TO DIE!?" Beta asked, peeking out of Hailey's backpack, trying not to fall himself.

"NO! NOT PIZZA DELIVERY! PACKAGE DELIVERY!" Dwayne said. "WINNING THIS WILL BE STEP ONE FOR ME TO GET ME BACK ON MY FEET AGAIN! OR IT WOULD HAVE BEEN FORE THIS!"

Karin was next to Johnny.

"BEFORE WE DIE, LET'S SPEND OUR FINAL MOMENTS, WITH ONE LAST KISS." Johnny said before leaning to kiss Karin only for it to be Beta instead as he fell out of the backpack.

Bixby pulled the plane back up to an adequate height. After getting back control in the air, he sighed in relief.

"Get the heck off me!" Beta said, kicking Johnny in the face.

"And people say stuffed bears are friendly." Johnny said to the audience.

"See? That's why I told y'all to sit your butts down! Now look what happened to ya!" Bixby said.

"Something that was your fault." Fiona said.

"No, it was you guys' fault! I told y'all to stop distracting me!" Bixby said.

"You know what? I'm going to put in some earbuds. I can't." Reagan said before leaving.

Reagan(Wave Breakers):

"This is only the second day and I'm already annoyed with this team and someone's that not even on my team! I thought Haizaki would be the biggest issue. Apparently not! And no I'm not overreacting! If you were put in my shoes, you'd react the same way too! And no, I can't fly a plane. But I sure as hell don't trust the others to do it. I don't even trust myself! Flying several people on a plane and having to worry about if you're going to kill all of them? That's way too much stress for me to deal with. I get stressed out at my job and that has way less people for me to deal with every day. You really think I can handle flying a plane with like several times that amount of people?"

She sighs before putting on headphones.

"Just relax. You're here for a vacation. You're here for a vacation."

"Everyone okay?" Jenny asked.

"Whatever we're feeling, it's a lot better than dying that's for sure." Duncan said.

"This has to be a lawsuit!" Blaineley said. "Getting someone who doesn't even have enough experience in flying?"

"Good luck with trying to win that. As long as we're still in the air, Chris is gonna get away with it." Duncan said.

"Hey uh, about what I said earlier…" Johnny started before Karin cut him off.

"It never happened. Because we never had a first kiss." Karin said.

"You know what they say. Never say never." Johnny said before trying to kiss her only for him to be kicked away to the seat next to Hanamiya, which was a couple seats ahead of the seats furthest back on the plane.

"Tough crowd. Though, knowing you that probably doesn't bother you too much." Hanamiya remarked, fist resting on his cheek before checking his phone to see what time it was before putting it back in his pocket.

Johnny didn't recognize him at first before remembering who he was. "Oh yeah, you're that weird eyebrow guy."

"And I thought Kuroko and Mayuzumi were supposed to be the ghosts that people forget about. Doesn't seem like it here. Least people know their names." Hanamiya said.

"Uh, right. Later." Johnny said before going back to the front of the plane.

Hanamiya continued to have that slight smile on his face as he observed the rest of the team before going to pull out a book and read. Out the corner of his eye he saw someone in red and blue flying past the plane. It was Razer.

"Well that's interesting." He commented.

***Confessional***

Karin(Wave Breakers):

"Don't get me wrong. Johnny is annoying. But he's not as bad as Haizaki. Johnny flirts and that's it. What Haizaki did yesterday was absolutely disrespectful. I'm honestly surprised he hasn't really done much today considering all the commotion he caused yesterday. Maybe giving him a black eye was all he needed to straighten up. Then again, I refuse to believe he's just been that way for one day. His behavior seems to be a running occurrence."

***End Confessional***

Razer flew into the portal and saw Chris, Chef, Knuckles and the Rats there waiting.

"Dude! Where the heck are you guys!?" Chris said, upset that they're still there waiting.

"Sorry. It looks like we took the wrong direction." Razer said.

"The wrong direction? You were supposed to go through the portal! Where did you guys go?" Chris asked.

"I'm honestly not sure." Razer said.

"Well, you guys better find out! We're on the clock here! Don't forget that we're still recording." Chris said.

"Right. I'll tell the others what happened." Razer said before flying back out.

Razer flew to where the Wave Breakers' plane was before knocking on one of the windows, asking to be let in.

"I can't open it!" Bakura said, although Razer couldn't hear him so he tried to make gestures telling him that he can't open it.

He went to someone else and tried asking the same thing. Haizaki, who was playing a game on his phone and had headphones on with music on, completely ignored him.

"Plan B." Razer said. He knew trying to force open a door in the plane wouldn't be smart because of the air so he decided to go back to his team's plane, seeing that no one seemed to have any knowledge of the separate door that could be opened, which was the same door that the original Jumbo Jet had for the Drop of Shame.

Razer opens the door for his own plane and gets inside, quickly closing it back and gets to the front of the plane to talk to Launchpad.

"Excuse me, but could you turn the plane around?" Razer asked.

"Turn it around? We're on a tight schedule here. If you forgot something, you're not gonna be able to go back and get it. Sucks, but, I gotta do my job." Launchpad said.

"That's what I got from Chris. Everyone is waiting for us. I'll tell you the directions." Razer said.

"You got it!" Launchpad said.

He turns the plane around, almost accidentally colliding one of the wings into the Wave Breakers' plane in the process.

"What in the world was that? Flyin' like a dang maniac!" Mr. Bixby said, after moving out of the way to make sure he didn't get hit.

"He can't be seriously saying that after what just happened." Tsukishima said.

"Wait, they were behind us that whole time?" Launchpad said.

"Yes. They were." Razer said.

"Guess I was really in the zone. I seriously did not know that." Launchpad said. "Alright, you tell me the directions, I'll follow 'em."

Back in Wild Canyon, Knuckles decided to pass the time by explaining who he was to the Rats via a song after Chris informed him about the musicals.

Knuckles: Just believe in myself.

Knuckles: Won't rely on others.

" ": This is my planet!

" ": I shall not surrender!

The two planes arrived, though because Launchpad stopped the plane right in front of the portal, Bixby unknowingly ran into the back of the plane and had to immediately pull up before turning around to make a landing.

"You dummy! Why would you put the plane in front of the dang portal?" Mr. Bixby said as soon as he got out of the plane to Launchpad.

"There's not exactly a place to put the plane. And I didn't want to run over Chris. Definitely wouldn't look good running over the guy that hired me." Launchpad said.

"Look at this place! There's plenty of other places you coulda stopped the plane! Did you not see I was behind you?" Bixby asked.

"Honestly, no." Launchpad said.

"Fair enough. Wait, are we in a desert!?" Bixby asked, looking around.

"It took you that long to notice that? I'm honestly glad that I'm even standing here right now." Tsukishima said.

"Looks like you guys had it rough." Kurt said to Reagan who was on the left of him.

"Rough is an understatement. It was a nightmare!" Reagan said, taking her earbuds out.

"You too huh?" She asked Midorima, who wasn't exactly happy either.

"While that is true our ride wasn't good, I'm upset at the fact that I wasn't able to finish listening to the horoscope for the day because of that duck's errant piloting." Midorima said, putting his phone away.

"You mean like zodiac signs right?" Reagan asked.

"Yes. My sign is Cancer. I never leave without listening or watching the horoscope for today to have an idea of what to prepare for. And to make sure I have my lucky item." Midorima said.

"I'm sure that's something on the internet you can read. I mean, these days you can find anything on the internet. Except for classified documents. You're not gonna find those. Unless someone leaks them." Reagan said.

"While I appreciate the suggestion, websites won't cut it. Every website uses different sources. Some may be accurate. Some inaccurate. I won't leave my fortune up to chance like that. What I've used has always been accurate. For better or for worse. And I'll continue to use it." Midorima said.

"Okay then. I'm glad you at least appreciated the suggestion." Reagan said.

***Confessional***

Reagan(Wave Breakers):

"I've never been into the whole sign thing like that. Especially compared to how Midorima seems. Like he seems really serious about it. Which is fine. I'm not knocking him for it. I just find it interesting. Too superstitious for my tastes, but interesting."

***End Confessional***

Midorima(Storm Kings):

"Unfortunately I won't be able to participate in today's challenge. Without my lucky item there is a great chance that I won't be able to perform well. Like I said, I don't leave anything to chance. It's not a decision that I like doing, but I have no choice. Besides, with Aomine, Akashi and Mayuzumi we should be fine. Although with Haizaki, Hanamiya, Kise, Kuroko, and Kagami the other teams are not to be underestimated. Though I have the utmost confidence that Akashi understands that. He was our captain at Teiko Middle when Nijimura left and the captain at Rakuzan in his first year. A title that he continues to keep in his second year. Something that isn't given out easily considering how prestigious Rakuzan is and how much it takes both its academics and athletic programs seriously. Those things don't just happen for any reason. As for the others, I have no true opinion on them yet as I have yet to see them perform. What happened yesterday doesn't count."

"Hey, do you mind if I ask a question?" Huey D. said to Midorima.

"What is it?" He said, having to look down because of how much shorter Huey was compared to him(Midorima is 6'5'').

"Are your fingers injured? I'm guessing that's why they're bandaged right?"

"No. My left hand is my shooting hand. I keep them bandaged outside of games along with making sure my nails are filed so that nothing will influence my shot and accuracy. Should I miss, it will never be under the reason of not taking care of myself. However, participating in these challenges will be an exception to the rule. If I'm ever needed I'll unbandage them."

"That's a lot of dedication. That's admirable." Huey D. said.

"Meh. Seems like too much work. I'm sure you can get the same results without having to do all of that." Louie said.

"That's where you're mistaken. If I would have had my lucky item, I would show you why." Midorima said.

"What does having a lucky item have to do with anything? Just sounds like you're scared of embarrassing yourself." Ben said.

"Shut up I'm not scared!" Midorima said, Ben's remark getting a rise(albeit a comedic one) out of him.

"Doesn't seem that way to me." Zak M. said. "You're definitely scared."

"Utterly ridiculous. I don't have to prove anything to any of you." Midorima said, pushing up his glasses.

"His lucky items are his superpower obviously. Without them, he's pretty much powerless." Mona said, picturing Midorima transformed into a robotic superhero alter-ego thanks to his lucky items.

"Eh, that's a bit of a stretch." Aomine said.

"Is it though? He talks about them a lot." Kise said.

"I wonder. If I had a lucky item would I get stronger?" Natsu said.

"I don't think that's how that works." Lucy said.

"Well it works for him." Natsu said.

"No one said it worked for him either. For all we know he could just be some crazy superstitious guy." Lucy said.

"Shintaro's always been extra like that. But hey, the guy can shoot I'll give him that." Haizaki said.

"If only you were that 'extra' in practice." Midorima said.

"What's up with the passive-aggressiveness man? Sheesh." Haizaki said. "It was just a joke."

"Look man, if you're gonna play, then play. You don't need some stupid 'lucky item' to do that." MacArthur said.

"You're not even on their team." Tsukishima said.

"And? That means I can't say something?" MacArthur said.

"I'm just saying. Though I gotta agree. It really does sound like some lame excuse to not play. I mean come on, there's no way I'm going to rely on something as lame as a superstition to play well. If you have skill, you wouldn't have to worry about having a lucky item." Tsukishima said.

"I'll have you know skill is not something I lack. However, that remains to be seen for you." Midorima said.

"Uh oh."Hinata said.

"Well, it's no stopping it now." Kageyama said.

"What did you say?" Tsukishima said to Midorima.

"It's nothing personal really. What I said applies to everyone but those that I was familiar with prior to coming here. Of course, that can change. For better or for worse." Midorima said.

"Then I guess I could say the same about you too." Tsukishima said, with many noticing a change in his tone.

"I guess so." Midorima said.

I take it he didn't like what Midorima said." Zoey said, low to Miyuki.

He laughs a little. "Looks like it." He said before smiling.

"He should use that as motivation." Miyuki thought.

"It's fine. Even without Midorima's help we can still win." Akashi said, changing from the soft smile that he had the entire time he's been on the island including when he was talking to others to a serious one.

"We don't even know what the challenge is. Who's to say he'd even be a good fit." Isagi said.

"Well, let's find out shall we? Knuckles, go ahead and explain to them the challenge." Chris said.

"Right. Hope you're ready to go huntin' because that's exactly what you're going to be doing." Knuckles said.

"Hunting for what, exactly?" Sophie asked.

"Jewel shards." Knuckles said.

"Hunting for treasure huh? I like it." Rocky said, grinning.

"And no, you can't take them! You do, you're disqualified!" Chris M. said.

"Welp, there goes that plan."

"I think I know exactly what you're talking about Knuckles." Tangle said.

"Well then you guys and Blaze should do awesome in this challenge if so." Chris said.

"You're going to be using these to track them. They've been tuned to track the shards. Closer you are, the louder and faster the pings will be." Heloise said, giving out trackers, two for each team.

"Meh. Could've done better." Rick said, looking at the tracker.

"Yeah? Let's see you do better. It's a radar. What else do you want it to do? Take it or leave it." Heloise said.

"Well, you could increase the range on it a bit." Young Bennett suggested.

Rick, Bennett and Reagan began to tune their trackers.

"Alright. As I was saying, you could have done better. And guess what? You didn't. So I did it for you." Rick said.

"Oooh you increased the range. Like I couldn't think of that one." Heloise said.

"But you didn't. I did." Rick said.

"To be fair, it's not that revolutionary." Young Bennett said.

"Which further proves my point. You didn't do anything special." Heloise said.

"If it's not that revolutionary why the f[censored] didn't you do it?" Rick asked.

"Grandpa's got a point there." Reagan said.

"It's Rick. Not grandpa. I'm Morty's grandfather, not yours." Rick said.

"Sorry. Gonna take a bit to remember the names, especially after what happened earlier in the plane." Reagan said.

"Yeah, whatever." Rick said, before drinking.

"Drinking before a challenge. Yeah, real smart." Old Bennett said to Rick.

"So? You got a *urp* problem with that?" Rick asked.

"Yes! It's not smart! Did you not hear me or pick up my sarcasm?" Old Bennett asked.

"Yeah, I picked it up. I just chose to ignore it. And here's further proof to show you that I couldn't give two s[censored]s about you." He said before drinking more alcohol while giving the middle finger to Old Bennett.

"Now keep your opinions to yourself. Oh right? You do. And it would have stayed that way had I not made you noticeable to everyone else here. Without me, you literally would not be acknowledged by anyone here other than yourself. Literally." Rick said before drinking more alcohol and giving him the middle finger again.

"You're going to be wasted. Ten seconds in. Guaranteed." Reagan said.

"I'll take that bet." Rick said before pulling out a timer.

"Hey kid, you should tune it to track fakes too." Old Bennett suggested, low, whispering in Young Bennett's ear.

"Good idea!" Young Bennett said before tuning the tracker again.

"Alright! Now it can track for fakes as well." Young Bennett said.

"Ha! Take that Rick." Old Bennett said.

"You're saying that and we might even need it dumb[censored]. You're trying to one-up someone that you can't even hope to catch." Rick said.

"And what if we do? Maybe I'm accounting for different possibilities." Old Bennett said. "And by the way, I'm able to go back 50 years into the past to interact with my younger self. Something that no one here is able to invent, let alone use."

"Actually, Clockwork has time manipulation." Ben said.

"Oh yeah, way to admit that you're f[censored]ing up history idiot." Rick said.

"You're messing with history? Do you know how dangerous something like that is!?" Reagan asked.

"You think I didn't account for the risks that would cause before I thought about doing this? That is exactly why I decided not to appear physically and do this in the safest way possible. Linking to the kid's mind! This isn't time travel you idiots! It's time projection! And besides, with you making me visible to others, you'd be making it worse!" Old Bennett said, the last part to Rick. "We could have just chalked it up to the kid being weird and talking to himself!"

Octavia only sighed and put in her headphones, knowing that this was going to be a bit.

"Wait, what?" Young Bennett said.

"No offense. That came out wrong. Sorry." Old Bennett said. "But no one would have really batted an eye. I mean look at everyone else here. That kid can turn into aliens." He said, referring to Albedo.

"I'm a Galvan! How many times do I have to say that?" Albedo said.

"He's right. This is not his true self." Dawn said. "And all three of you, while you're very intelligent, all of you just honestly don't want to be alone."

"And what do you suggest, all three of us come together as some science buddies? Yeah, that's not going to happen." Old Bennett said, folding his arms. "I refuse to work with someone like him." He said, referring to Rick.

"We'll see how you work when I take the s[censored] I made back. You won't contribute to anything a-after that." Rick said.

"Just like you won't contribute much longer in the state you're in." Reagan said to Rick.

"Just so you know, it's no longer yours. The kid and I adjusted the machine to make It more compact last night. In others words, completing what you didn't finish." Old Bennett said.

"Do I get any type of input on this?" Young Bennett asked.

"NO!" Rick, Reagan and Old Bennett said simultaneously before shots were fired in the air, which got all of their attention.

"F[censored]ing nerds! Shut up!" Hiruma said, speaking for the first time since getting off the plane. Outside of Eyeshield, he and Kurita were wearing normal clothes instead of football jerseys. Hiruma was wearing a black collared shirt with blue jeans while Kurita was wearing a black jacket over an orange t-shirt with black pants.

While Kurita was learning about Akko's Chariot trading cards from Akko herself, Hiruma was on his laptop playing solitaire and other games with the only peep out of him heard on the flight being him laughing from someone that sent hate mail to him.

"F[censored] you! You unhinged-" Reagan started before Hiruma tased them, pulling out three tasers and quickly tasing all of them right after.

"Oh my God! Rick!" Morty said, going to make sure he was okay.

"Hiruma! Why did you tase them?" Mamori asked.

"If I didn't they weren't going to shut up." Hiruma said, before blowing a bubble with the gum he was chewing and then cackling a little.

"Relax, they're not dead." Hiruma said to Morty.

Young Bennett(Radical Rats):

"I'm confused. I thought we were supposed to be here to make things better, not worse!"

Old Bennett, in a small form appeared next to Young Bennett on one of Bennett's shoulders. "Now I can see exactly why he hates me. Well guess what? I don't like that idiot either! I mean why in the world would you be drinking before a challenge!" He said before facepalming.

Young Bennett sighed.

Old Bennett takes off the helmet as the chair lowers.

Old Bennett was muttering to himself. "Insufferable, egotistical…. AHHHH!" He ended with, yelling out in frustration.

"I take it things aren't going well." Edee-34, an upgraded revision of Bennett's robot from the future said. In this case, as the number showed, was the 34th.

"What was your first guess?" Bennett asked.

"You talking to yourself and yelling out loud." Edee-34 said.

Bennett sighed before sitting in another chair and getting something to eat. "I just need a break. I hope the kid can handle himself for a bit. With those two there, this is going to be harder than I thought. Much harder." He said, referring to Reagan and Bennett.

Wild Canyon(Sonic Adventure 2)

"Alright, you guys are going to be working in pairs. But, not all of you will need to participate. It'll only one pair from each team, making this a total of six." Chris explained. "Now then, we're going to randomize the choices here for this first challenge. No way I was going to let you guys off the hook and have you work in your already established teams or groups. At least for some of you. Especially with what's happening now. This'll only make things even more interesting." Chris explained.

"Oh you better hope you don't have to go against me Hiruma. You think you're crazy? You're gonna see what a 30 year old genius woman with probably way too much time on her hands and pent up anger can do."

She said before thinking about something.

"Honestly though, call me crazy, but if we were on the same team, I'd think we'd actually along pretty fine. Yeah he's crazy but like, it's just like what Zoey said. Everybody's got a little crazy in them. Hiruma just shoots his everywhere. Wait, that line sounds so wrong out of context. That's definitely getting clipped in some out of context moments on this show online." She said, laughing a little.

"Anyways….. Hiruma, sorry bud, but I'm gonna kick you're a[censored]. You've actually got time to achieve your dream to play football or whatever. Me? Yeah, I've got my dream job and all but I still need that money more than you do."

"And before you ask, you are allowed to use your powers, abilities, tools, or whatever you have in this challenge! For some of you, you might have no choice but to if you want to navigate through." Chris said.

"And how exactly will winners be decided?" Puss asked.

"The team that collects the most shards will not only avoid elimination, but they'll get a reward!" Chris said.

"And what about the other two teams? Is this going to be double elimination?" Rally asked.

"Nope! If you get second, not to worry, you'll be safe elimination! You just won't get a reward. But, if you get last, then you're going to have to send someone home!" Chris answered.

"Now then, any questions?" Chris asked.

None were given.

"Okay then! Now, before we start, let's see who's going to be participating today! When I call your name, you'll be representing your team in the first part of this challenge!" Chris said.

"Whisper! Kurt! You'll be representing the Radical Rats!" Chef announced.

"Good luck!" Tangle said to Whisper who nodded.

"You're in good hands. She might not be much of a talker, but that doesn't mean she isn't friendly. And she's awesome at missions too!" Tangle said to Kurt.

"After seeing what you and the others on this team can do, I'll take your word for it." Kurt said.

"Heh. Sounds like someone else I know." Kagami said, referring to Kuroko.

"Paul! Heather! You'll be representing the Storm Kings!"

"Jenny! Bass! You'll be representing the Wave Breakers!"

"Don't get in my way." Bass said to Jenny.

"Get in your way? If we're going to win, we're going to have to work together." Jenny said.

"I don't need to work with you to win." Bass said.

"I hope those Pokemon can do more than Ash's." Heather said.

"What?" Paul said, raising an eyebrow after hearing that name. "How do you know him?"

"He was here on Total Drama in a season." Heather said.

"Did he win?" Paul asked.

"Nope." Heather said.

Paul simply blinked and looked back at Knuckles, Chef and Chris to hear if they had anything else to say about the challenge.

"Just so you know, there's three shards in the area! Once all three are found, you'll need to come back so we can head to the next area and start the second part of the challenge!" Chris said.

"Also, your trackers have been set to shut off when all three are found. Something that none of you three noticed. And don't think about trying to force it back on. There's failsafes against that. You try it, you're going to hurt. A lot." Heloise said more to Rick, Reagan and Older Bennett more than anyone else.

"A failsafe. Way to take a small victory, I guess?" Young Bennett said.

"One more thing! Can any of you not fly? Or not have anything that's capable of flying? Other than Heather?" Chris asked. "Doesn't matter if your partner can. If you can't I need to know now. Be honest!"

Kurt was the only one to raise his hand.

"You'll need this." Heloise said, tossing him a jetpack.

"Don't worry it's been tested. Just uh, don't try to use it TOO much. Or it might overheat and explode. Still haven't worked out the overheating issue yet." Heloise said.

"Wait, are you serious?" Kurt asked, not believing that Heloise would give them something like that.

"Relax. That'll only happen if you do something stupid like fly around the area with it the whole time. Which you don't have any reason to do. It cools down pretty quick." Heloise said.

"Alright! Let's get started!" Chef said. "Good luck! And try not to fall!" Chef added.

"Wait, wha-" Jenny said before they were all suddenly teleported out by Heloise.

"I'm sure they got the message." Heloise said, shrugging.

"You forgot to tell them about the other stuff there didn't you?" Chris asked.

"What? Oops. Heh." Heloise said, smiling.

Pumpkin Hill(Sonic Adventure 2)

The six contestants appeared, standing on a circular platform. There were several pumpkins in the area.

"Cool! Looks like a Halloween theme." Mona said. "And where there's Halloween there's bound to be three things: Candy, Pumpkins, and Ghosts."

"And in this case….. a fourth thing!" Chris said.

"A fourth? Is it vampires? Zombies? Black cats?" Mona guessed.

"Nope! Musicals!" Chris said.

"Singing again huh? What kind of scary song are they going to be singing?" Mona asked.

"Let's find out." Chris M. Said.

"Garchomp! Stand by for battle!" Paul said, bringing out said draconian Pokemon.

"If there's three in the area, then we should split up. We can stop the other teams from getting any." Heather suggested before two dings were heard.

Ding! Ding!

"You can do whatever you want. I'm not singing if I don't have to." Paul said.

"Meh. Long as we win, I really don't care." Heather said, shrugging.

A Ghost's Pumpkin Soup Composed by Tomoya Ohtani and performed by Hunnid-P Plays(Sonic Adventure 2)

Knuckles was seen on a higher hill above all of the other contestants.

Knuckles: You know me the fighting freak Knuckles! And we're at Pumpkin Hill! You ready?

Whisper(Low voice): I ain't gonna let it get to me I'm just gonna creep.

As they continued to sing(well in this case, rap) the song, Jenny, Whisper, Kurt and Paul all flew and went to the monitor that was in front of them that recvealed a hint about where to go. Or in Paul's case, he rode Garchomp, who flew to where the first monitor was. The monitor turned on and sent the hint to their tracks which read "A Farm House". Bass, meanwhile, summoned his wolf-like companion robot Treble who teleported downward. He combined with him to become Super Bass, allowing him to fly.

Heather: Down in Pumpkin Hill I gots to find my lost piece.

Whisper(Low Voice): I know that it's here I can sense in my feet.

Knuckles: The great emerald's power allows me to feel.

Jenny looks around, flying to look for a farm house as the hint described.

Jenny: I can't see a thing but it's around somewhere.

Kurt: I'm gonna hold my head 'cause I have no fear.

*Song continues to play in the background as Jenny/Kurt/Whisper/Heather/Knuckles continue to rap the lyrics*

"No way. Heather's….. rapping?" Duncan said before laughing. "I've seen it all."

"Didn't see that one coming. But hey, it works." Chef said.

As Bass continued his search, he landed and saw that two robots, one being an arial drone and another being a tank, were blocking his path.

He charged a buster blast and turned them into scrap heap, dodging the blasts that they attempted to fire at him.

"There's robots there?" Toxsa asked. "Other than Jenny and Bass obviously."

"Ooh yeah. Totally forgot about those." Heloise said.

"Sure you did." Courtney said, eyeing her suspiciously.

"What the hell? There's real ghosts there!?" Kagami said, horrified.

"Why are you so scared? It's not like you're there." Noah said.

"Besides, there's no such thing as ghosts. It's all special effects set up by Chris." Myron said.

"Special effects huh? Yeah, right." Scratch said.

"Myron, we've gone through this before. Ghosts are real. Kaz literally raced against one." Fiona said.

"Wait, you raced against a ghost? How'd that go?" Ruby G. asked.

"Pretty cool actually. The ghost was actually pretty good. He could even shapeshift his machine into all of our machines and use their abilities too!" Kaz said.

"So he's a copycat huh? Pretty cool." Kise said.

"Ha! Ghosts. Nice story Kaz." Myron said.

"Oh. Right." Kagami said. "Sorry. Just surprised that's all."

"Take a look at the others here. Is ghosts being real in this universe really farfetched?" Octavia asked.

"Well, I guess not but….." Myron said.

"Like you said, history does exist differently in different worlds and universes. Perhaps ghosts exist here? Even though I'm a bit skeptical myself. There's a small chance they do exist." Cicini said.

"Perhaps! Kid! Oh." Scratch said, facepalming. Though none of this could be seen by Cicini.

***Confessional***

Myron(Wave Breakers):

"Cicini's right. It's highly doubtful there's ghosts that exist. Even the time that Kaz raced against what he thought was a ghost possessing P.E.L. When P.E.L. was 'possessed by a ghost', it was just some hacker trying to pull a prank on us. Those illusions, while well done, were fake too. As for that machine, it was simply just its special ability. It can copy others but it has no unique abilities of its own." Though notably, Myron was moving his legs a lot as he was talking, as if he was uncomfortable.

Kagami(Radical Rats):

"At first, I was kinda bummed out that I wouldn't get to be in this challenge. Now I'm actually kinda relieved. To tell you the truth, I got a fear of ghosts. Stupid I know. Just don't like sharin' that with anybody. I don't even think Kuroko knows that. He got suspicious once but I don't think I gave it away. I… don't wanna talk about what led to him askin' that." Kagami said before sighing. "Glad I could get that off my chest here. Don't know when or why you came up with this idea of confessionals Chris, but I gotta give you your props for it man. Thanks to you I can go back to where everybody else is without any problems."

Molly(Wave Breakers):

"What? Kagami is not scared of ghosts!" Molly said dismissively, waving off Scratch's accusation.

"I'm telling you he is! I'm a ghost! I saw that look! When you've been a ghost for as long as I am, you can just sense the fear. You can smell it!" Scratch said. Though he could not be seen on the camera.

"All I smell is victory for our team!" Molly said.

Scratch signed. "Sometimes you're just too optimistic for your own good." Scratch said.

***End Confessional***

Returning back to the challenge, one of the team members' scanners started to beep, indicating that they were getting close. It was Bass'.

*The song and challenge is back in focus on screen*

Jenny and Knuckles: Let it get to me? I'm just gonna creep.

Heather and Knuckles: Down in Pumpkin Hill I gots to find my lost piece.

The ping was getting stronger as he searched on the hill he was on, smashing through the pumpkins without a second thought to try and find the shard.

Whisper and Knuckles: I know that it's here.

Kurt and Knuckles: I sense it in my feet.

Knuckles: The great emerald's power allows me to feel.

Heather and Knuckles: I can't see a thing but it's around somewhere.

Knuckles and Jenny: I gotta hold my head. I have no fear.

After smashing the farmhouse, Bass finds the emerald.

"Too easy." Bass said, holding the shard up in the air in triumph.

"And it looks like the Wave Breakers have claimed the first shard!" Chris announced.

*After this announcement was made, a break in the song took place as an instrumental played*

"Divide and conquer." Dwayne commented, impressed that Bass was the first to find a shard.

"Garchomp! Use Dragon Claw!" Paul commanded. Garchomp slashed through the robot blocking its path as it was now in pieces.

Jenny was already searching for another emerald after finding another monitor that gave the hint of "Suffering from a stuffed nose?"

"They've already found a shard. We have to get moving." Whisper said. Although a ghost behind Kurt surprised him and caused him to jump back. He picked up a pumpkin to throw it at the ghost.

"Right." Kurt said, realizing that it wasn't going to be effective.

Whisper shot at it with her Variable Wispon, using laser mode as it glowed cyan. She shot it two more times after seeing that it was effective as the ghost grew smaller before it disappeared. Kurt raised an eyebrow, wondering why her weapon was effective but not the pumpkin but wasn't going to question it.

"Thanks." Kurt said.

"You're welcome." Whisper said. "Now come on. Let's get moving. We're losing time." Whisper said.

Whisper used her Variable Wispon to fly, using its Hover Mode via a Green Wisp. Kurt used the jetpack.

Kurt, Whisper and Knuckles: I ain't gonna let get it to me I'm just gonna creep.

Jenny: Down in Pumpkin Hill I gots to find my lost piece.

Heather: I know that it's here I can sense it in my feet.

Knuckles: The great emerald's power allows me to feel

Jenny: I can't see a thing but it's around somewhere.

Whisper: I'm gonna hold my head 'cause I have no fear.

Kurt: This probably seems crazy(crazy).

Heather: A graveyard theory

Knuckles: A ghost tried to approach me and got leery.

As that happened, Garchomp and Paul easily dispersed of the ghosts in the area they were in. They were on moving platforms with Garchomp timing his jumps to move from each platform to platform. The only hint they were given was that it was on "Pumpkin Mountain".

Jenny: Asked him a question and it vanished in a second

Heather: I'm walkin through valleys cryin' pumpkin in the alley.

A blue chao flew around Paul and Garchomp as they continued to advance through the platforms and flew over the small railings that connected some of the small circular platforms.

"This is Pumpkin Mountain!" The chao informed the two.

Whisper: Didn't seem happy

Kurt: But they sure tried to get me.

Whisper(As she blasted more ghosts on the platform they were on): Had to back 'em up with the fist metal crack 'em.

Jenny: I'm hearing someone sayin' you a chicken don't be scared.

Heather was getting closer to finding an emerald but couldn't seem to figure out where it was in the are.

Heather: It had to be the wind 'cause nobody wasn't there.

Heather thought she heard something, but looked around and saw nothing. She continued to walk around. "Where is that stupid shard?"

Whisper and Kurt: I searched and I searched as I climbed up the wall.

Jenny: And then I started to fly and went in deeper!

Jenny gasped. "That's it!" Jenny said, finally getting the hint. She started to fly around each of the pumpkin faces until she got a ping from the tracker.

Whisper and Knuckles: Let it get to me? I'm just gonna creep.

Kurt: Down in Pumpkin Hill I gots to find my lost piece.

Heather: I know that it's here! I sense it in my feet.

Knuckles: The great emerald's power allows me to feel.

Jenny: I can't sense a thing but it's around somewhere.

Heather and Jenny, at around the same time, start to feel stronger pings on their trackers. Meanshile, Paul and Garchomp had found something, but it was not what Paul expected. It was a blue chao encased in a bubble. Paul, deciding to investigate it further, believing that the hint he was given couldn't have been for nothing, broke through the bubble and grabbed the chao.

"Hold it! That shard's mine!" Bass said, charging a shot to fire at him as a warning to Paul.

"If you're looking for a shard, then you're going to have look somewhere else." Paul said, completely unfazed by Bass' threat with the buster.

"Hm?" Bass said, before looking at what Paul had in his hand. It wasn't a shard.

"Tch." Bass said before flying away.

Kurt: I gotta hold my head!

Whisper: I have no fear!

Paul kept the chao regardless, thinking that if it was something valuable, he wasn't going to be stupid enough to let it go.

"Garchomp, it's time to take off again. We're not done yet." Paul said.

Oddly enough, Paul had perfect timing as they were finished. After Heather kicked off a grave, a shard was revealed underground and she dug via a shovel that was laying around. Jenny dug through one of the faces of one of the hills and found the shard easily after hearing the ping.

They were all teleported out.

Wild Canyon(Sonic Adventure 2)

"And that's it! That's part one of the challenge!" Chris said as the six reappeared.

"Let's take a look at the scores." Chef said.

Rats: 0

Kings: 1

Breakers: 2

"Uh oh. Looks like the Rats came up empty. Not lookin' too good for y'all right now. Hope you don't get chewed out." Chef said.

"Darn it! We came up empty!" Kurt said, not happy with the fact that they lost.

"Sorry." Whisper said low to her team, completely understanding if it does happen to them for failing to retrieve not a single shard.

"It's okay! It's only the first part of the challenge. I'm confident you can bounce back." Tangle said.

"Tangle's right. It is possible for the Rats to bounce back!" Chris M. said. "We've got one more section of this challenge!"

"Will it be more treasure hunting?" Sophie asked.

"Nope! The Rats should already be familiar with the second part of this challenge." Chris M. said.

"This next part's gonna be out of my hands though. My job here's done." Knuckles said.

"Alright everyone! Let's head to the second part of your challenge! Which will be a relay race to the finish! Fair warning that you're going to be dropped in! So when your name is called, you're going to represent your team in this challenge! In that particular order! Once you reach a certain part of the race, you'll see your teammate, who you'll need to physically tag for it them to start their leg of the race. Kings! Breakers! You'll also have advantages! The Kings will have 1 hit of protection while the Breakers will have 2." Chris M. said.

"Hiruma! Rocky! Dragonfly! Axl! You'll be the four representing the Rats!"

"You mess this up, I don't think anybody's gonna mind me hittin' ya this time." Sendo said to Rocky.

"You can count on me, fellow Rocky!" Rocky said jokingly, smiling.

"Just shut up and win." Sendo said, calming down.

"F[censored]ing cat, here." Hiruma said, tossing Rocky one of his rifles only for Rocky to fumble it, with bullets shooting everywhere, causing several people in the vicinity, including Chris and Chef to have to duck.

"For me? You shouldn't have." Rocky said after catching the rifle,a smile on his face that made several people, including Mamori and Eyeshield, concerned. Though it only encouraged Hiruma as a maniacal grin was on his face too.

"You've told me all these cool things about you guys. You better not lose." Tangle said, playfully hitting Axl in the arm.

"You callin' me a liar? I'll show you." Axl said, a confident smile on his face, hitting Tangle in the arm back as well.

"Huey Freeman! Sly! Mayuzumi! Todd! You'll be representing the Kings!"

"We're counting on you to win." Akashi said to the four.

Huey nodded, knowing the job that needed to be done.

"Yeah, yeah, whatever." Todd said.

"I've got it. I just hope the others can hold their end of the bargain." Sly said.

"How about you worry about holding yours." Mayuzumi thought, scowling at Sly.

"I just hope you're not as incompetent as some other ringtail I know, ringtail." Skipper said.

"I'm a master thief. That should tell you more than enough of whether I'm competent or not." Sly said.

"Duncan! Zak Monday! Molly! Mr. Wolf! You'll be the four representing the Breakers!"

Zak M., as he walked past, purposely nudged Zak S. with his knee a bit. He knew that it was intentional but decided not to say anything.

"Let's do this." Mr. Wolf said, a confident grin on his face.

"We have the lead. Don't mess this up." Blaineley said before snoring sounds were heard, the source being Duncan.

"Oh. Sorry. You put me to sleep by telling something that we already know." Duncan said.

"Then if you know that, you'll make sure you do well." Blaineley said.

"Sorry, what was that? I don't speak loser." Duncan said.

"Excuse me?" Blaineley said, offended.

"You heard me. LOOOOOOOOSER." Duncan said with Zak M and Mr. Wolf just sitting back and watching the action, entertained.

"I am the host of a reality show! You're just a delinquent that ended up in prison for-" Blaineley started.

"Hey! Hey! Everyone! We're all on the same team here! We might be a little different in some ways but we all share one thing. We want to win! That should bring us together." Molly said, getting in the way of the two.

"I've already won before. Tell that to her." Duncan said, thumbing to Blaineley.

"And what have you done since winning? Nothing to be proud of that's for sure." Blaineley said.

"Least it's better than bein' you, Mildred." Duncan said.

"Wait, who's Mildred?" Toxsa said before the 12 were teleported out.

"I wasn't done Chris!" Blaineley said.

"I know. That's why I teleported them out. Couldn't let you get the last word in." Chris M. said, laughing.

Blaineley(Wave Breakers):

"Chris did that on purpose. I know he did! But seeing that I'm here I have a question for you? Would you rather be A: A host of a well-known reality TV show Celebrity Manhunt? Or B: A winner of Total Drama Action but someone that's had to go to prison for destroying a cottage?" Blaineley said before pausing for a bit.

"That's what I thought. And my name is NOT Mildred!"

Radical Highway, Central City(Sonic Adventure 2)

Hiruma, Huey and Duncan all drop down from out of the portal. It was nighttime in the city they were in and they were all dropped where a bridge looking similar to San Francisco's Golden Gate Bridge was.

While Hiruma dropped down on the left suspension cable of the bridge, Duncan and Huey dropped down on the right suspension cable. As Chris promised, Duncan and Huey were granted protection in the form of blue and green shields respectively.

"Whoa. This was definitely not what I was expecting." Duncan said, almost falling off the suspension cable, but keeping his balance. The three got off the cables and were on the road.

They started to run towards the three springs on the bottom.

Huey was the first one to get to the springs with Hiruma and Duncan being very close seconds and thirds respectively. Going through the toll booths, the three ran downwards as the road inclined downwards.

At the end, there were two branching paths for them to take. Hiruma and Huey took the left while Duncan took the right. There were boost pads on each path, with all three of them running over them to get the boost of speed needed to run up the loop. After navigating through the loop and back on a straightaway, next was a tunnel, where the road was curved to the left.

As the three ran through the tunnel, with Hiruma taking the lead, Rally commented, "I'm surprised Hiruma's not trying to slow down the others." She had a genuinely surprised look on her face.

"He's been surprisingly tame during the whole plane trip." Lucy said.

"Hey, maybe the dude's got a chill side to him. Just sayin'." Zee said, drinking a soda.

"Maybe so. But I'll believe it when I see it consistently." Karin said.

Right on cue, instead of going around the robots, like Duncan did, or in Huey's case, slid under it, in between the gap between its legs, Hiruma blasted it with a grenade launcher.

"You were saying?" Diana said to Zee.

Zee(Radical Rats):

"I'll admit when I'm wrong. And in this case, I might've been wrong. But I don't know. Like Lucy said, he was pretty chill durin' the flight."

***End Confessional***

*Song Resumes*

The three, continuing to ascend the city, were now on another highway that curved to the right. After taking that right, they were greeted by another hook could pull them up, along with another robot that shot at them. Though Hiruma retaliated with way more than what the robot was packing and sent it packing to the scrap heap.

There were three rockets awaiting the three when they ascended. One for each of them. Hiruma was the last one to take the rocket after losing a bit of time destroying the robot.

"Yaaaaaaaaaa-HAAAAAAAAAA!" Hiruma yelled out as he was being taken diagonally upwards on the rocket before he fell back to the ground.

The three tagged Rocky, Sly, and Zak Monday respectively as Rocky was the last one to go.

*Song Stops*

"And we're on to the second leg of the race!" Chris commentated as the three ran downwards on the road with three speed boost pads awaiting them at the bottom.

Shadow the Hedgehog 2004-2P VS Battle/Radical Highway Remix Plays

The three started to go up the loop, with Sly rolling at a high speed. Zak M. however, decides to take a shortcut and grapples onto a part of the highway with his Fang.

"Ha. See you lo- uh oh." Zak M. started, smiling before it was quickly wiped away when he saw the unfinished area of the road, as there were large gaps. Falling through one of the large gaps, with quick thinking , he grappled onto the bottom of the road and then swung himself back upwards onto the top of the road. Though he was in last place, he was at the very least, alive.

Sly, and unknowingly to him, Rocky, were both rolling to the springs. Before Zak could attempt to try and pull one of them back with his Fang, they had already bounced upwards on the springs, going in a tunnel before bouncing downwards diagonally, each spring going in a counterclockwise direction as they went from spring to spring before the last three sent the two flying towards the next spring that would bounce them upwards, flying across the highway with Rocky yelling, trying his hardest to keep his hat on his head, all smiles.

"With the speed he's going, I honestly would be at least a little scared. But Rocky's just smiling the entire time." Marinette commented.

"He's probably just having fun." Adrien said.

"If it gets us to win, I'd say leave him be." Kurt said.

*Song Pauses*

Kurt(Radical Rats):

"I've been on a team with a couple of guys that were like that. Well, one of them really. Shirako on the Teku. DIdn't talk much. Almost always had headphones on. But he was a good driver. Then when we started racing for Tezla, there was the Maniacs. You had guys like Porkchop and Monkey. They weren't quiet like Shirako, but those two were interesting too. But hey, even with all that they still were able to turn Drones into scrapheap. Not sure what's going on in that wacky head of Rocky's. He might be having too much fun to care that he could get himself hurt. Or something else. Who knows. But like I said, if it helps, I'd say leave the guy be."

***End Confessional***

*Song Resumes*

Although Sly was able to land perfectly, Rocky rolled but was on the ground, finally failing at an attempt to copy Sly.

As Rocky was starting to get up, Zak kicked him back to the ground before continuing to run.

"He did that on purpose!" Natsu said.

"That slimeball!" Kagami said, both heated over the fact their teammate was kicked down, intentionally.

"We haven't lost yet. The race isn't over." Lanolin said.

"I don't remember Chris saying anything against doing something like that. He's just playing the game." Blaineley said.

"Even so, I can't respect someone that's willing to kick someone while they're down." Puss said.

"Where did he come from anyway?" Ruby R. asked Zak S. as Rocky was surrounded by robots that would try to ambush any slow movers. Which in this case, was Rocky.

"Uh oh. This isn't good… for you!" Rocky said before laughing maniacally and shooting all of the robots with the rifle Hiruma handed him. And for good measure, he left a stick of dynamite as a parting gift as he jumped over one of the robots riddled with bullets.

He tipped his hat to them as they were sent to a fiery grave from the dynamite explosion.

"Huh. Looks like those explosives did come in handy after all." Rally said.

"That…. was beautiful." May said, pretending as if she was shedding a tear.

"Of course you'd like it you bomb freak." Rally said in a deadpan manner.

"Like you don't secretly like the fact that Hiruma has all of those guns Ms. Pistol Packin' Momma." May said.

"What? What on Earth would make you think that?" Rally said.

"Come on. Admit it. Hiruma's your ideal type of guy isn't he?" May said, jokingly as she nudged her on right hip.

"Never in a million years." Rally said, smiling, knowing full well that May is joking.

"He's from another dimension called the Shadow World. It's basically the polar opposite of ours, in the smoke mirror." Zak S. said, starting to explain who Zak M. was to Ruby after seeing the conclusion of Rocky against the robots.

"A smoke mirror huh? Hope it doesn't fall in the wrong hands. The whole world would be in chaos! Some of our strongest heroes as villains!" Mona said, picturing Team RWBY, and even Mona and her friends as their alter egos causing chaos in cities.

"Wait, the smoke mirror? You mean the same place Huey came from?" Luz asked, just wanting to make sure they were on the same page.

"Yeah. That one. And don't worry Mona, the mirror's in good hands. Ever since that break-in, they've increased the security on it even more." Zak S. said. "I still need to find out how he's back. He should be dead."

"Question. If there is a universe or dimention where everyone has opposite traits. Would that mean I am evil in that dimension. Would I still be friends with Ruby?" Penny asked.

"Honestly, not sure. Maybe?" Zak S. said.

After swinging on poles to ascend upwards along with going up a hook and a rocket, Sly and Zak both reached their checkpoint, with Rocky being a few seconds behind them to tag Dragonfly.

"Up to you!" Rocky said before he was teleported out.

*Music Stops*

Mayuzumi, Dragonfly, and Molly saw they were in the same area, but they all felt something change.

Dragonfly was still looking around, the most affected out of the three.

"RUN YOU IDIOT!" Sendo yelled.

"He can't hear you." Noah said.

"I DON'T CARE! HE NEEDS TO RUN!" Sendo yelled.

"What is up with people yelling? Just calm down. We're right here." Tsukishima said.

"SHUT YOUR DAMN MOUTH! I'LL YELL IF I WANT TO, GOT IT?" Sendo said, yelling in Tsukishima's face.

"I hope you'll want to stop putting your spit on my glasses too." Tsukishima said, having to take them off to clean them.

"Did you feel that? That was kinda weird." Molly asked Mayuzumi, who didn't give a response.

"I guess not." Molly said.

"Did the perspective just…. change?" Fiona asked, noticing how things were now at a side view instead of an over the shoulder/behind the back view.

"Looks like it did. But why?" Adrien said.

The three continued to run, with Mayuzumi taking an early lead with Molly and Dragonfly not too far behind.

"Hey, that's that Mayuzumi guy who used to play at Rakuzan." Kagami said.

"Oh yeah. I forgot he used to go there with Akashi." Aomine said.

"He played on your team?" Weiss asked Akashi who nodded.

"So what happened? Why doesn't he play with you anymore?" Weiss asked.

"Nothing." He said, giving a reassuring smile, indicating that nothing terrible happened between the two. "He was actually entering his third year when I arrived at Rakuzan for my first year of high school. He simply graduated and attends college." Akashi said.

"Oh. For a second I thought something bad happened between you two." Weiss said.

"If there's one thing that's changed, it's a lot more robots there." Yang noted.

Mayuzumi had already used the one hit granted for his team for protection after being unable to dodge one of the robots, with Molly almost using one but dodging at the last second against another robot. Dragonfly was a completely different story altogether. The robots were tossing him around.

Lucy and several other on the rats could only sigh.

"I can't watch this." Kagami said.

"Jeez." Rei said.

"Jesus. Just put the guy out of his misery already." Rick said.

Blaze could only look on and feel sorry for him. He was then thrown again, falling over a gap in between the highway, the only thing saving him being the gust of wind below that would send him upwards like it did for Molly and Mayuzumi.

"Mayuzumi's handling himself pretty well." Cameron said.

"Of course he is. As I said before, his physical capabilities, while still fairly below average, are higher than that of Kuroko's." Midorima said.

"So if that's the case, then we can expect him to eventually start to tire out soon." Rook inferred.

"Yes." Midorima said.

After bouncing off a passing blimp, Dragonfly ascended to high ground via bouncing back and forth from the blimp to springs, putting him back on the right track to catch up to the other two. If he would start moving again.

He had his hands on his knees, trying to catch his breath.

"Woo." Dragonfly said in between breaths.

"Forget the gym. This show gon' be my exercise." Dragonfly said.

"COME ON! LET'S GO!" Kagami said impatiently.

"Not you too." Becky B. said.

Both Sendo and Kagami were starting to yell, urging Dragonfly to start running again.

After going up a loop, Mayuzumi and Molly were greeted by someone flying in a jetpack next to them.

"What's up?" He said, greeting them. He had a muscular build, his bright red hair styled in a mohawk with the sides shaved with two small hoop earrings in his right ear. He wore a brown, long-sleeved collared shirt with the sleeves rolled up, brown gloves, a yellow belt, black pants, and knee-length combat boots.

"Uncle Doyle?!" Zak S. said, surprised.

"Hi!" Molly said. Mayuzumi didn't respond and only gave a verbal greeting.

"Nice talk. Too bad I gotta take both of you out now." Doyle said.

"Wait what!?" Molly and several other contestants outside of the game said simultaneously.

"Sorry. Nothing personal." Doyle said before shooting at them.

"What the heck is he doing? Has he lost his mind?" Zak S. said.

"It could be a virtual version of him." Toxsa offered.

"Maybe. But I'm not sure." Zak S. said.

The two jumped up on moving platforms, while trying to avoid Doyle's fire at the same time. After a couple of tries, both were able to get upwards, but that allowed Dragonfly to at least make up some type of ground.

After crawling under the roller, he was at the moving platforms. Although he mistimed his first jump, the rest were perfect. Molly and Mayuzumi were already running on a twisting road that was inverted before getting to a sign, running past it as they both disappeared.

"Darn." Doyle said before noticing Dragonfly running, trying to catch up.

"Guess I'll settle for you then." He said as he was approaching the twisty road, nabbing as soon as he got off the road.

"Great. The idiot got himself captured." Rei said.

*Music Stops*

"Man, it is not lookin' good for y'all." Chef said to the Rats.

"Don't you think we know that?" Emma asked.

"You've still got a chance, but now Axl has to suffer a five second wait penalty while the others get to go since he was never tagged." Chris said.

Axl, Todd and Mr. Wolf were dropped down on the, oddly now snow-covered highway.

"Wait, when'd the snow get there?" Kagami asked.

"I'm guessing it's more effects from Chris." Cicini said.

Todd and Mr. Wolf were grinding on the left and right suspension cables respectively while Axl had to wait the five seconds that Chris mentioned earlier.

Radical Highway- Mario and Sonic at the Olympic Winter Games Remix Plays

By the time they started to descending the second part of each suspension cable, Axl's wait penalty had passed with Axl needing to grind on the two rails next.

Todd and Mr. Wolf went over boxes with question marks over them.

"Are those Mario Kart item boxes?" Reagan asked, more out of surprise more than anything else after hearing the familiar sound.

"Yes! Yes they are!" Chris said.

Todd's stopped on a red mushroom. Mr. Wolf on a single green shell.

"Oh look, a mushroom." Sucy said. "Wonder what it can do."

"You would be the first to notice that." Lotte said, smiling.

"What I'm also noticing is that he's not using the mushroom. Use it!" Sucy said, raising her voice a lot more than she did before.

"He can't just use it. You've gotta be patient." Luz said.

"Forget patience! This is the last leg of the race! I want to see what the mushroom can do!" Sucy said, shaking Luz.

"Okay." Luz said, caught off guard from Sucy's outburst.

"Sucy loves mushrooms. That's why she's acting like that." Akko whispered to Luz.

"Oh. I see. Has she ever played Mario before?" Luz asked.

"I honestly don't know." Akko said.

"If she doesn't know what it does, I'm assuming she's at least never played Mario Kart." Luz said.

"Guess not." Akko said.

"Wow! Axl might be about to make a comeback thanks to Bullet Bill!" Chris said, causing everyone, including Akko and Luz's attention to go back to the screen.

"GO AXL!" Tangle cheered.

"YEAH! LET'S GO!" Kagami, Sendo and Natsu roared.

"Uh oh." Todd said, looking back and seeing Axl right behind the two and deciding to hit the panic button and use the boost now while he was airborne, jumping off a ramp.

"Why isn't he using his ability already? Come on! You're going to lose!" Ayame said, referring to Mr. Wolf.

"No. I don't think that's it at all." Ryoma thought, a finger on his chin, thinking.

They were in the final stretch, grinding on a railing as Todd overtook him.

"Got ya!" Mr. Wolf said before throwing out a green shell.

"Uh oh." Todd said before falling off the railing. Axl passed him for second.

"This isn't good. He's got no power-ups. He might lose." Ben said.

"Shouldn't we keep a positive outlook? The race is not over yet." Rook asked.

"Positive? I'd feel better if he had something like a blue shell. But he doesn't." Ben said.

"A blue what?" Rook asked.

"Blue shell. Mario Kart?" Ben said.

"Um…" Rook said, unfamiliar with the game.

"Oh, right. Video games Rook." Ben said.

"Ah. I see. I think." Rook said.

*Song stops for confessional*

Rook(Storm Kings):

"Admittedly I am still unfamiliar with many things from Earth. Video games for instance. While I am learning, there is still a lot I don't know about. For example, why is the game called Mario Cart if shopping is not involved?"

***End Confessional***

*Song resumes*

They were descending, with the finish line just ahead. Axl jumps off the rail and goes to the right.

"What's he doing!?" Kagami said.

"Axl, you better know what you're doing or this might cost us." Zero thought.

Mr. Wolf increases the gap between him and Axl. The power up Axl got was a single red shell. He lines up the shot as best he can, seeing that the finish line was in sight.

"Here goes nothin'!" Axl said, throwing it. Before Mr. Wolf could jump down to the finish, Axl hits him.

"Are you kidding me!?" Dwayne said, hands on his head.

"He's gonna win!" Natsu said.

"Sorry, that's not gonna happen." Ben said.

"Seems like it to me." Happy said. "He is the closest."

"3…2…. 1….." Ben said before he and Mr. Wolf were both struck by lightning.

"What the….. what just happened!?" Mr. Wolf said, realizing that he was smaller.

Todd laughs as he gets first.

"This can't be! We lost!?" Albedo said.

"Wow. Unbelievable!" Young Bennett said, hands on his face. "All he had to do was just go!"

"You can't be serious!" Falcon said as Mr. Wolf slowly, but eventually, gets second.

"Gotta give Todd his respect. And Mr. Wolf too." Randy said.

"ARE YOU KIDDING!?" MacArthur yelled out. But nothing matched Sendo's anger along with Hiruma who angrily shot his gun in the air.

"Bulls[censored] at its finest." Rick said, giving the middle finger at the screen.

"Ha! Eat it Rick! You too Hiruma!" Reagan said with both of them giving Reagan the middle finger.

Just then, Old Bennett reappeared which scared his younger counterpart.

"What do you want?" Young Bennett said, upset.

"Ooh. Looks like I came at a bad time. Let me guess, you guys lost." Old Bennett said.

"Tons of angry people on our team. What do you think?" Young Bennett asked.

"Including you it seems. I'm glad I wasn't there. I don't even wanna know what happened to make you guys lose." Old Bennett said.

"Two words. Video Games." Young Bennett said.

"Darn it kid! I told you not to tell me!" Old Bennett said. "Now I have to know how you lost! What genre?"

"Racing."

"What kind?"

"Snowboarding."

"Hmm… I got nothin'," Old Bennett said, shrugging.

"Two words. Snowboarding with Mario Kart powerups."

"Oh yeah. A classic. Still annoying and rage inducing today. Well, at least our today." Old Bennett said.

"Enjoy sending someone home, Ryota." Haizaki said.

"Shut the hell up a[censored]hole!" Kagami said.

"Ooh, someone's salty. You didn't even play. You shouldn't even be too mad." Haizaki said.

"I'll show you who's salty when I give your a[censored] another bl-" Kagami said, starting to move before being tripped up by Kuroko.

"The hell was that for!?" Kagami said, getting up, angry.

"I'm trying to stop you from making a mistake." Kuroko said.

"The only mistake made here, was Chris for letting that ba[censored]d on this show!" Kagami said.

"Hey! Kagadummy! Shut up! You're getting on my nerves." Rei said.

"You shut up! We lost! You should be upset too!" Kagami said.

"Of course I'm mad! But at least I'm not about to do something stupid like you were!" Rei said.

"Tch. Whatever." Kagami said, calming down.

"I'm not happy we lost either. But Rei's right. We should just take that into the next game. Besides, it looked fun right? That's the important thing. As upset as everyone is, they still look like they had fun." Kuroko said.

"Yeah. Gotta admit. That did look fun." Kagami said, smiling. "I just hope the next challenge we do is just as good. And next time, I don't wanna sidelines. I wanna play."

"Same here." Kuroko said, smiling.

"Alright! That's the end of the challenge! Storm Kings! With Todd coming in first, your rewards are immunity and first class! Which means, better food, better seating, and portable Television! Wave Breakers! Although you didn't win you'll at least avoid being eliminated. You'll have normal accommodations, but the food won't change. As for you, Rats. Yeah, you're going to be sending someone home today. But you'll also have to stay in economy class for this and the next challenge. And you'll have to send someone home! Enjoy!" Chris announced.

"Mini-man! What's up?" Doyle said, appearing along with Dragonfly who was caught in a net with Doyle letting him.

"You gon' pay for that PUNK!" Dragonfly said attempting to hit him before being stopped by Doyle pretty easily.

"Dude, challenge is over. You can relax man." Doyle said.

"Relax? After you netted me? HELL NO!" Dragonfly said before circling around him before suddenly decided to step on the net and then point at Doyle and then the ground. He then circled around Doyle again before putting a fist right in front of Sophie's face before pulling it.

"What are you doing?" Sophie asked.

"SILENCE! I gotta whoop this fool a[censored]! That's what I'm gonna do!" Dragonfly said.

"Uh, what's he doing?" Doyle asked Zak M.

"No idea." Zak M. said.

He then ran around performing kicks in the air before running towards Doyle and trying the same thing, this time to Doyle, who only stepped out of the way, causing him to fall into the sand.

"If you're wondering why he's here, it's simple. I hired him." Chris said.

"As an intern?" Zak S. asked.

"Nope! As what I'd like to call a 'hired gun!'" Chris said.

"So, an assassin basically." Reagan said.

"Nah. Not exactly. I'm a bounty hunter. I could choose to do stuff quietly, but I'm more of an in your face kinda guy." Doyle said.

"So wait, why Chris hire you? He can't seriously be trying to kill someone. Because if so, admitting you're his hired gun in front of everybody is kinda dumb." Reagan said.

"Let me rephrase that. I'm a bounty hunter that doesn't try to kill people. Unless it's someone that deserves it." Doyle said.

"So if I paid you to kill someone for me, would you do it?" Reagan asked.

"Uh, depends on who it is and how much money you're going to pay me. I mean, I don't really know what else to say. You're kinda puttin' me on the spot here." Doyle said.

"Hey, he's got his standards. I can respect it." Mr. Wolf said.

"No, he's not here to kill anyone. I simply hired him to be a sort of Wild Card or outside force in the challenges. He won't be in all of them, but he'll appear in some to try and slow you down or stop you from completing the challenges. Doesn't mean you can't fight back though. In some cases, defeating him will grant a person or some cases, multiple people a prize and/or immunity." Chris explained.

"But wait, hold on a sec. That kid just said that's his uncle. There's going to be bias. How is that fair?" Dwayne asked.

"Oh no. I'm not gonna show bias to him or….." Doyle said before noticing Zak M.

"Long story." Zak S.

"As I was saying, I don't show any mercy. Just ask him in the video games we play." Doyle said.

"Yeah. It was a lot of losing on my end until I got better." Zak S. said.

"Sorry, still skeptical." Reagan said.

"I say bring it on. I'll take down your little hunter." Skipper said.

"Is that right huh? We'll see about that. You're on." Doyle said.

"Bring it." Skipper said.

Heloise changed the Rats' and Kings' planes. The Kings' plane looked like an actual jet while the Rats' plane was… not good. In fact, fumes were coming out of the turbines.

Everyone on the Kings, with the exception of Jotaro, Din, Midorima and Mayuzumi cheered on Todd.

"Not bad Todd." Riley said.

"Not bad at all… for a mammal." Skipper said.

"See? And you thought video games would contribute to nothing important later on. I just saved our butts from elimination. And got us first class!" Todd said.

"Hey. Kid." Jotaro said.

Todd turned.

"Good job. Hope you've got more of that. Because we're going to need it." Jotaro said, even though he wasn't smiling, he was still impressed.

"Nice work kid." Din said.

"Next time, save some of that fun for me okay?" Bachira said.

"Free cheers to Todd for saving us from another potential crappy meal!" Bren said.

Mayuzumi looked at them all and lowered his eyebrows, scowling.

"Hey." Ruby R. said to Mayuzumi, catching him off guard.

"What do you want?" Mayuzumi asked.

"I told Sly, Paul and Huey this too, but I just wanted to say good job." Ruby R. said, giving him a friendly smile.

"Whatever." Mayuzumi said before walking away to the plane. Ruby looked at Mayuzumi as he left.

"I don't want your pity 'good job'. I did my job. We won. I'm happy. That's all that matters." Mayuzumi thought.

"Well, at least he said something compared to Paul." Blake said, joining her as he left, referring to when Paul only closed his eyes and walked away.

Kagami(Radical Rats):

"I know I lost my cool back there. It's just…. I still remember what Haizaki did to Alex and my brother Himuro. And by brother I mean friends. We're really close like that. To the point to where it feels like we're brothers. That's why I'm wearing this." He said, holding up his necklace. It was hard to see but a name was engraved on it. "It shows that we'll always be that way. No matter what. No matter where we are in the world. He's got one just like this too."

"Sorry. Gettin' off track. Anyways, from what Himuro told me he tried to hit on her after my game against Himuro, Murasakibara and Yosen. And when she denied his advances, he put her in a chokehold. And when Himuro tried to stop him Haizaki punched him. He was hurt pretty bad. At the very least, I got to see that a[censored]hole leave with his tail tucked between his legs after Kise and Kaijo beat him in the Winter Cup Tournament. But I didn't forget. It's gonna take more than some half-a[censored]ed nice guy act or time for me to forgive or forget what he did. I could control myself beforehand but losin' the game had already made me upset. And seein' him taunt like that just made it worse."

"Listen, I don't like Hanamiya. He's garbage too. But he'd never do something like that! And to think, Team Jabberwock was worse than both of them. If he wants me to forgive him, the change ain't gonna come from me. He's gonna have to change."

Hanamiya(Wave Breakers):

"A shame we didn't get first. But, at least we don't have to send someone home unlike the Rats. And, I got to learn more about some of the others here. Looks like the failed Kuroko poser's still alive and kicking when it comes to physical attributes. But compared to the other athletes here, he's still lacking. Bass doesn't look like a team player. And Zak looks like someone that's pretty cutthroat when it comes to playing here. Wonder who'll bite the dust on the Rats first?"

"And honestly, long as we don't have to eliminate anybody, I don't really care if we get first or not. I'm gonna continue to bide my time. I thought about talking to Haizaki, but seeing how much he gets under everyone like Kagami and the Miracles' skin on his own I'll let him do what he wants. You can call it dishonest, dishonorable, or whatever other moral bulls[censored] you wanna call it. You know what I call it? Winning. Real winners bide their time. Real smart winners know how to set up their opponents to fail themselves. I got no reason to show my hand yet. Besides, I think I'll get some help from some guys that I trust. And once that happens, the only thing that awaits them is a slow, but inevitable death. And no, I don't mean that literally."

Plane 2: Storm Kings(First Class)

With only Mayuzumi being on the plane with him, who could care less as he was reading a light novel, Paul looked at the blue Chao before accidentally dropping it. It cracked open and revealed a wooden head that looked like Chris McLean. Under it was a note that read,

"Dear Lucky Contestant,

If you're reading this, that means you've found an official Chris McLean immunity idol! Whether you earned it or stole it, it's none of my business. And I probably won't know. Or will I? But anyways, congrats! If you're on the brink of being eliminated, use this to save yourself!

P.S. Not a good idea to tell anyone about this, including your teammates. Unless you're like, the best of friends or something. And I mean REAAALLLY close. Or they might steal it. If it happens, I'm not responsible. You've been warned.

Signed,

Your Awesome Host, Chris McLean"

As he finished reading it and began to put it away in his backpack, the rest of his team came aboard the plane.

"Wow, this is nice!" Luz said, as they all looked around.

"Thank me again later." Todd said.

"I'll give you this Chris, you made First Class even better." Heather said.

Midorima put in earbuds to listen to the horoscopes.

"Cancers, expect a quiet day today for you. But that still doesn't mean the day will be a total loss. Especially if you have your lucky item today. And that lucky item is an orange alarm clock! Aquariuses and Leos might be a little quiet today as well, so if you're one of those two, sorry."

He turned off the phone and took out his earbuds.

"Of course. A big reason why Kagami and Kuroko weren't participating. The horoscopes are still as accurate as always." Midorima thought. "Now, where will I find an orange alarm clock for the day?"

"I think I'm going to enjoy this." Alejandro said.

"As long as Launchpad doesn't fly like a maniac that is." Weiss said.

"I hope Adrien's okay. That plane does not look good. At all." Marinette said to Luz as she looked out the window.

"I'm sure he's fine. It can't be that bad." Luz said.

Plane 1: Radical Rats(Economy Class Plane)

The conditions of everywhere but the pilot area was not pretty. The walls and seats were dirty, there was gum under the seats, and there was a cockroach crawling, which disgusted several of the contestants.

"Got damn his place sucks!" Dragonfly said.

"Ew!" Lucy said, trying to refrain from throwing up.

"Are you okay Lucy? You kinda look like Natsu when he's sick." Happy asked.

"Look at this place, why would I be okay?" Lucy said before covering her mouth. "Oh gosh. I think the smell might have gotten in my mouth."

"You're not getting sick are you?"

"I will be if I have to stay in here any longer." Lucy said.

"It smells awful in here!" Diana said, immediately covering her nose. "I really wish Sebastian was on our team right now."

"Most of the time, I don't really agree with you, but yeah, this place sucks." Sucy said.

"I didn't think he'd be able to do it. But somehow Chris found a way to make Economy class even worse." Noah said.

"Absolutely disgusting. This is what some of you humans are capable of doing. How can you accept living in these conditions?" Albedo said, sitting on one of the seats, trying not to touch the grease stains.

"I don't think anyone here likes this place." Becky B. said.

"At least, if I'm in the other planes, I won't have to worry about bugs crawling over me when I'm sick." Natsu said, unable to move.

"This place sucks! If we wouldn't have lost we wouldn't have to deal with this!" Sendo said.

"Get around the grease spots, and it's okay. I'm ready to chill back at the island though." Zee said, trying to relax only for the seat to come too far back, causing it to go flat.

"Oops. I think I might have broke it. You guys won't tell anybody right?" Zee asked.

"It was probably already broken." Rei said.

"I don't know about you guys, but I'm ready to get out of this place." Rocky said.

"We wouldn't be in this damn place if we wouldn't have lost!" Sendo said, grabbing Rocky.

"Hey, hey calm down tiger! We're twins remember?" Rocky said.

"Sendo! Stop!" X said.

"It wasn't just him that played. To put the loss all on him isn't smart." Lanolin said.

Sendo sighed and put him down, cooling down. "You're right. It ain't all on him. But the fact of the matter is, somebody's gotta pay for us losin' and has gotta go. The question is, who's it gonna be?" Sendo said.

"Glad you're comin' to your senses. For a second there, I-" Rocky started before Whisper held a hand up, stopping him, shaking her head.

"Whisper is right my friend. I don't think this is a smart time for your playfulness." Puss said.

"No talking. Got it." Rocky said.

"So, which one of you wants to volunteer to leave?" MacArthur said.

"I know you're knew to this style of the show, but that's not how that works here." Noah said before MacArthur grabbed him.

"Okay mister smart mouth! Why don't you volunteer?" MacArthur said.

"MacArthur! You gotta chill! I know you didn't get your coffee. And you're probably hungry. But you can't take it out on him. He can't defend himself. He probably couldn't even do five pushups!" Sanders said.

"Thank yo- HEY!" Noah said.

"Sorry." MacArthur said, putting Noah down. "I'm just bummed out at losin' ya know?"

"Trust me, we all are." Kagami said. "We just gotta make sure that doesn't happen again."

"I'm already looking forward to the next challenge." Kise said, a smile on his face.

"Yeah. Me too. For more reasons than one. I don't think anyone here wants to stay in this place." Adrien said.

"Agreed." Everyone on the plane said simultaneously.

Plane 3: Wave Breakers

"Well, it's better than losing." Dwayne said. "I feel bad for them. Look at that thing." He said, looking out at the Rats' plane.

"Meh. I could care less." Zak M. said, putting his feet up.

"Your feet are going into my seat. Could you please put them down?" Karin asked.

"Nope." Zak M. said, pushing them into the seat further.

"Fiona, can we switch seats?" Karin asked.

"Sure!" Fiona said before they switched. Karin had the window seat while Fiona had the outward seat. Zak M. continued to have his feat up, which also bothered Fiona as well. Though unlike Karin, she didn't mind retaliating and hit him on the head with a downward punch, hard.

"Ouch. That's gotta hurt." Toxsa said before turning on his phone.

"Just glad that's not me." Randy said.

Plane 1: Elimination Ceremony(Radical Rats)

All of the Rats were seen in bleachers with Chef, Chris and Heloise.

"Alright Rats! You're the first to lose this season! So, it's time to send someone packing. Sucks I know. But that's the show. You don't want that happening again, win the next challenge. So, here's how this works. Up in the loser class bathroom, you'll find several passportsof all your teammates. I need you to stamp the passport of one team member you'd like to send home. ONE! Not more!" Chris said. "When you're done, come back here and the votes will be tallied up." Chris explained.

"If we make a mistake, can we correct it?" Adrien asked.

"No. Which is exactly why you need to pay attention to the faces. You don't do that, that's on you and the person you could potentially vote out unintentionally." Chris answered.

"And please hurry up. I'm hungry." Heloise said. "You don't vote for someone, or vote fast enough I'm voting for you. And if I do that, you're not going to like it. So make it quick." She said, putting her hands on her hips.

"She's only saying that because she's in charge of counting the votes." Chris said.

"What are you idiots waiting for? Go vote already!" Heloise said, pointing to the area they need to go to vote.

Chris looks at the camera. "We'll be right back after these messages!"

*Commercial Break*

"Now for some Total Drama Across the Multiverse Trivia!"

Question 1:

Focus: Sonic the Hedgehog

The song "Going Down" from Sonic Adventure 1 features a sample from a rap song. An excerpt of that sample being "Make more rhymes than Michael Jordan makes slam dunks." This sample was also used in another video game also released on the Dreamcast. Which was it?

Mortal Kombat 4

Capcom VS SNK

Capcom VS SNK 2

Space Channel 5

Question 2:

Focus: Dragon Ball

There were several Dragon Ball video games released over the years. However, Super Saiyan 3 Vegeta and Broly were what-if forms featured only in two Dragon Ball Games. Two other characters named Hatchiyak, featured in the "Plan to Eradicate the Super Saiyans" movie and Tarble, Vegeta's brother, were also featured in this same game. Excluding Dokkan Battle, the other games some of these characters were featured in were Japan-only releases and have never been seen in games outside of those releases since. Which game released worldwide, featured these characters?

A. Dragon Ball Raging Blast 2

B. Dragon Ball Z Tenkaichi Tag Team

C. Dragon Ball Z Budokai Tenkaichi 3

D. Dragon Ball Z Budokai 2

E. Dragon Ball Raging Blast 1

F. Dragon Ball GT Final Bout

Think you have an answer? Leave it in a review! The answers to these questions will be revealed in the next chapter!

The Multiversal Nexus: Unfinished Business A/N: This is more of a parody than anything else. Most of these characters have no fourth wall self-awareness. Some characters are OOC and is simply a joke. This is NOT meant to be taken seriously.

A club room with the banner "Abandoned Club" was seen.

"Alright everyone! Today is the day we finally get what we deserve!" A girl with Brown hair,a pink shirt with the Bonne family mark, a small blue jacket, pink gloves, pink heeled shoes, two Bonne earrings and a headband said.

"Pizza? 'Cause I think I definitely deserve that." Iceman said.

"No you dummy! Our franchises being finished! I partner with the Robes and take over as CEO of my company, and I got cut off like that? Come on!" Reagan said. "Actually, pizza's cool too. But let's get our shows back first!"

"Actually, some of us are from video games. Where's the fourth game damn it!" Seargeant Michael "Psycho" Sykes, a man with pale skin and was bald, wearing a nanosuit said. He also had a British accent.

"Dude, your game has literally been announced. Why are you here?" Spectacular Peter Parker said.

"It's taking too damn long!" Psycho said. "I'm only the main guy for an expansion but I'm still p[censored]ed!"

"Heh. I'm a bit jealous. Least you got a cameo in Across the Spider-Verse. Me? Nope." 2003 MTV Peter Parker said to Spectacular Peter.

"How many Capcom guys are here again? Man, they must really hate Mega Man." Sly said.

"Least the original never had a bad game. X6 and X7?" Mikey said, before covering his nose. "P U!"

"Wait, why are you here?" Vert asked.

"Reppin' the cancelled Fast Forward season man!" Mikey said. "Raph might have done, but yeah he hates the future."

"Does anyone know about me? Anyone here?" Spin, a small red robot that looks like a ball. "No?"

"I'm sure someone does." Coop said, eating a BLT.

"Alright losers! Let's go!" Hiruma said.

"Wait, why are you here? Didn't your manga get finished?" Reagan asked.

"So what? Even so, the anime never did. The sub got cut off before we even got to finish the Winter Bowl Arc! And the dub got axed after five f[censored]ing episodes!" Hiruma said, pulling out another rifle.

"Least you got over a hundred. Me? Just another 26 episode anime to be added to memes." Ikki said.

"Let's go everyone!" Tron said. "I'm coming for you Mega Man my love!"

"No I am!" Roll Caskett said.

"Stop fighting! Save that for later." Ilana said.

Hollywood

"Cut! Alright! This looks good enough!" The director said.

'Question. People hated this last time. Why are we making a sequel to the Avatar movie?" An actor asked.

"Hated? I can't tell. With how much people hate watch these days, it's still giving us money so why not?" The director said.

Suddenly the wall was broken through by a large yellow robot, Bumblebee.

"I'm back! I've been away for a while, but I'm back to kick some butt! The yellow robot said, sampling a quote from a song.

"The hell's going on here?" Another actor asked.

Psycho suddenly appeared in front of the director, uncloaking himself after deactivating the nanosuit's cloak mode, scaring him. "I'll tell you what's goin' on. You're gonna put our s*it back on! Now! Or I'll kill ya!" Psycho said.

"No, we're not killing anyone!" Ilana said.

"Ilana's right. We can get our point across in other ways." X1 said.

"I know I know. I just wanted to scare the livin' daylights outta him. That'll surely help get the point across." Psycho said before laughing a little.

"I can definitely see why they call you Psycho." Spin said.

"Alright you f*cking directors! Tell us where the higher ups are! Now!" Hiruma said, before pointing a gun at him.

"Hiruma! Put the gun down." Ilana said.

"Next b-building!" The director said.

"And you wanted him to put the gun down." Psycho said.

They moved to the next building while the director secretly made a phone call.

They made their way into the building, with Hiruma shooting through the doors, scaring everyone inside. They proceeded to make their way to the second floor only for the elevators to be stopped and suddenly opened.

"You're not going anywhere." A boy with a boomerang said who was with someone else that was wearing Air Nomad garments.

"Let's do this Ong!" The boy said.

"Ong? What the f[censored]!? It's Aang!" Reagan said.

"My name is Ong! I'm an Airbender! Please. I don't want to hurt you." "Ong" said.

Another pair showed up, looking similar to those two. Even though they said nothing.

"Let's do this!" The second boy second.

An ice ball was sent, freezing "Ong". The source being an old man.

"Ong no!" Sokka said.

The same old man then flew into Sokka, sending him flying into a wall. He then lifted up the second Sokka and then threw him back onto the ground via telekinesis.

"I don't want to fight you!" Aang said before bending air forward, something that pushed some back but others dodged either.

"Please!" Aang said before spinning around, sending a gust of air around himself.

"I don't want to fight you!" Aang said.

"Why is he saying the same thing over and over again?" Iceman said.

The old man then performed a bicycle kick, kicking Aang relentlessly before performing a kick, knocking him into a wall before Iceman froze him.

He took a breath calmly.

"Wow." Coop said.

"I got reduced to a kameo in Mortal Kombat 1! Why would they say I'm the next generation Liu Kang!? I could have been my own character damn it!" Shujinko said.

They moved to the next set of stairs as the elevators were locked off.

Stopping them next was a robot with a girl with pink hair and a sword along with a girl with a staff that had blue hair.

"You're not going anywhere!" The girl with pink hair said.

"The road ends here pal." The robot said.

"No Hot Rod. Let us handle it." The girl with blue hair.

"What do you mean 'let you handle it'?" Hot Rod asked.

"I mean Rosemary and I can handle it. We don't need your help." Sage said.

Sage sent blasts from her staff towards them all only for them to dodge it easily.

"Rosemary come on!" Sage said.

"Just sit back and enjoy the show big guy. Let me show you how it's done." Rosemary said before going to attack the group.

"So you don't ask the giant robot for help. Because….. reasons. Got it." Coop said, ducking a blast from Sage.

"Don't worry about him, worry about yourself." Sage said, sending more blasts but destroying more of the building than hitting anyone.

Iceman sent an ice blast, encasing her in ice.

"Sage!" Rosemary said before getting angry and trying to attack them all.

"Uh, Hot Rod! A little help!" Rosemary said after already losing her sword and being cornered.

"Sure. He'll help you out." Tron said before it knocked her out, now under Tron's control.

"What? Oh." Rosemary said before being unconscious.

They advanced through the building, taking out several others that stood in their way with ease.

"Hollywood's finest my a[censored]." Reagan said.

Hiruma shot through the large doors before they were brought down.

Several businessmen and women were all sitting at a table looking at a projector that was explaining the plot of the next season of Velma.

"Did you have to shoot the door down?" Fiona asked. Hiruma only grinned.

"The princess here's got a list of demands! You listen to 'em and we'll leave quietly. You don't… it's not gonna be pretty." Psycho said.

"Forgive Psycho here. He's just upset. As we all are. But we'd like to share a few things with you." Ilana said.

"You smash through a film set and trash the building! And now you want to do things peacefully?" One of the businessmen said.

"You attacked us! We didn't have much of a choice." MTV Peter said.

"Take care of 'em!" Another one of them said, snapping his fingers as Velma, Fred, Goku, Rey and several others appeared.

"Kame…." Goku started to charge up energy for a Kamehameha.

"I'll take care of it! Infinite Leopatra!" Fiona said, bringing out her Scan2Go machine.

"Satellite Owl!"

The machine had several green and orange hexagons with several symbols on them over the top of it, each of them representing an ability.

"…Hame…."

"Take this! SATELLITE IMPULSE!" Fiona declared. Instead of sending lightning from overhead, she kept the detachable satellite owl attached and had it channel power into a lightning blast.

"Oooh protesting with violence and guns. Wow. And look at all of the f[censored]ing people that are doing it. So much small d[censored] energy." Velma said.

"Trying to prove a point only for it to be mean-spirited and racist. Great job." Reagan said. "Jesus do you not have any type of self-awareness?"

"Of course I am. Minori-"

Spectacular and MTV Peter both webbed her mouth shut.

"You're welcome." Spectacular Peter said.

"HAAAAAAAAAAAA!" Goku said, trying to fly at Leopatra and the others only to fly out the window.

Everyone looked at Goku as he flew out the window.

"MARS FLAME SNIPER!" Was heard before an arrow was shot, knocking the lightsaber out of Rey's hands. Rey tried to reach for it only to be sent away by Ashoka, who also appeared along with the source of the arrow, Rei who was transformed into Sailor Mars.

"It's over! Your…. uh….. I don't even know what that was has been taken down!" Coop said.

"Not yet." Someone said, appearing.

"Is that….. an emoji?" Reagan said.

The emoji was then knocked out by Lois Lane who appeared.

"Lois! We said no punching!" Clark said, appearing.

"But come on! Look at these guys! Are these not punchable faces?" Lois said.

"Yes." Reagan said.

"See?" Lois said. "Also, look at this place. I think it's a little too late for 'no punching'."

"Look, I know you're upset, but there's got to be a better way for this to be solved other than trashing a buildi-" Clark said before someone came crashing through.

"Question. Does fanfiction count?" A businesswoman asked, raising a hand.

"No! No fanfiction! We mean productions with money put into them from production studios!" Ikki said.

Hiruma brought out a book that had some of the secrets of the higher-ups and showed it to them.

"What the- how do you know this?" One of them said, with Hiruma only grinning before pulling out several cell phones.

"Why do you have so many cell phones?" Reagan asked. "Did you hack into them?"

"No. Of course not! I can't hack into something like that. The cameras are all I need." Hiruma said.

"Okay! Okay! We'll listen!" One of them said, caving in.

"Awesome! Okay then. I'd like to share a presentation on the projector if you'll be so kind." Ilana said.

"Knock yourself out." One of the women said.

"First off, I'd like to show you some of the heartfelt letters and petitions made to you all to give these franchises a proper send-off." Ilana said.

The presentation continued until the end, with the higher-ups, all but having no choice but to be all-ears.

Characters:

Spin(Rollbots)

Yoichi Hiruma(Eyeshield 21)

Fiona Ryder(Scan2Go) A/N: The show was finished but not in the US. Not going to spoil it but the show was pulled at a horrible point in the series when things were really starting to build up to the final race/battle. I watched the Spanish dub online just so I could see what happened when I was a kid. Tenkai Knights and Scan2Go are one of many shows I was upset at not having a proper ending back then. Wouldn't be until this year that I watched the actual English Dub of the final episodes online. Oddly enough it also didn't get a Japanese dub at all. Apparently it was due to issues with both Synergy SP, a Japanese Studio and South Korean studio Dong Woo Animation.

Bumblebee(Transformers Movies Pre-Last Knight)

Coop(Megas XLR)

Tron Bonne(Mega Man Legends)

Roll Caskett(Mega Man Legends)

Ashoka Tano(Star Wars)

Hino Rei(Sailor Moon)

Rey(Star Wars)

Reagan Ridley(Inside Job)

Ilana(Sym-Bionic Titan)

Goku(Dragon Ball Evolution)

Aang "Ong" & Sokka(M. Night Shyamalan Avatar Movie)

Aang & Sokka with repetitive lines(Avatar Quest for Balance Game)

Velma(Velma)

Lois & Clark(My Adventures with Superman)

Iceman(Wolverine and the X-Men)

Rosemary and Sage(High Guardian Spice)

Hot Rod(Transformers the Last Knight)

Sly Cooper(Sly Cooper Games)

Michelangelo(TMNT 2003; Represnets the cancelled Fast Forward Season)

Psycho(Crysis Games) A/N: Psycho is a side character in most of the games but was a main character in the Crysis Warhead Standalone expansion on PC(Don't think he appeared at all in Crysis 2 however). Crysis 4 has been confirmed to be in production by Crytek

X2(Star Wars Battlefront: Elite Squadron) A/N: While Elite Squadron was released for the PSP and DS, originally, Free Radical Games was going to release Battlefront 3 for the Xbox 360, PC and PS3 as a sequel to the legendary Pandemic Battlefront games but it was cancelled. A pre-alpha build for the XBOX 360 however, is online and is playable. Lucasarts however, brought in N-Space and Rebellion to save as many of those assets as possible and bring them over to develop DS and PSP versions of a new Battlefront Game Elite Squadron, a sequel to Renegade Squadron, also on the PSP. The Rebellion-developed PSP version of the game is still the only Battlefront game to date that allows you to battle on the ground, in the sky, in space AND in capital ships all at once, even online. Some can even affect other sections as well. Easily one of my favorite Star Wars games of all time along with Battlefront II(Mods even make the PSP game just as good as the console version, adding voice lines and the missing maps from the console games!)

Note that this character, as far as I know is not canon to the official Star Wars Universe. An original story was created just for this game. The story's still pretty good for what it was though.

Total Drama Elimination Theme Plays

"Alright! To match the theme of today's hunting challenge, I've got some Ring Pops here. They're all green apple before you start fighting over flavors." Chris said.

"When I call your name, I'll toss you one and you're safe from elimination. And you can enjoy some candy while you wait. If you don't get one, you're out! And if you're in a duo, trio, quartet or team of five then all of you are gone too." Chris said. "Even if you already got a marshmallow."

"Seriously?" Kise said in disbelief.

"The cost of trying to all bunch up as a group dude." Chris said.

"Alright! Let's get this started! The votes have been counted!" Chris said as Heloise handed Chris the votes.

"Now don't bother me. I'm about to sit back and enjoy some TV while I eat." Heloise said, walking away.

"Chef! If you'll do the honors in announcing who's safe!" Chris said.

"Owen!"

"MacArthur & Sanders!"

"Priya!"

"Alright! I'm not a first boot! That would have been so bad." Priya said.

"Noah!"

"Yay. I get a ring pop prize. That would be great. If I was 9 years old." Noah said before looking at it. "Ah what the heck." He said before opening up the packing to eat it.

"X!"

"Zero!"

"Rick!"

"Morty!"

"Yulaw!"

"Adrien!"

"Becky Botsford!"

"Emma!"

"Tangle!"

"Alright!" Tangle said, triumphantly.

"Lanolin!

"Sendo!"

"Dawn!"

"Sucy!"

"Akko!"

"Lotte!"

"Diana!"

"Puss!"

"Albedo!"

"Falcon!"

"Cicini!

"Benntt!"

"Blaze!"

"Rally!"

"May Hopkins!

"Becky Farrah!"

"Natsu!"

Happy catches it for him.

"Isn't that great, you're safe!" Happy said.

"Yep. That's totally great." Natsu said, still sick, struggling to even give the thumbs up wanted.

"Lucy!"

"Kuroko!"

"Kise!"

"Kagami!"

"Zee!"

"Hiruma!"

"Eyeshield!"

"Monta!"

"Kurita!"

"Mamori!"

"Rei!"

"Kurt! Whisper! Axl! Rocky! Dragonfly! Chef did not call you. Remember that if you don't get a marshmallow, you lose. So let's see who's going to be out first."

"Kurt! You and Whisper came up empty in the emerald hunting challenge. But, it looks like that's not enough to get you two out of here today. Especially you Whisper. Looks like you got a few that either see you as useful or they still believe in you. Or both." Chef said.

Chris tosses them both Ring Pops.

"Rocky! Not only did you contribute in your team's loss. But you were also annoying to some of your teammates on the plane today. More Sendo than anybody else." Chef said.

"He shouldn't have put those grits on me!" Sendo said.

"Hey, everybody makes mistakes right?" Rocky said.

"Not a good combo. But, a few of your teammates, especially Hiruma, are willing to look past that. Zak Monday kicking you while you were down kinda helped. And the shooting too. But that part's more from Hiruma and May." Chef said.

"Of course he'd like him." Rally said, referring to Hiruma.

"Guilty as charged." May said admittedly.

"Yeah. I can't say I liked what Zak did." Kagami said.

"So does that mean….." Rocky started.

"Yep! You get to live to fight another day man! You're safe!" Chris said, tossing him a marshmallow.

"YES!" Rocky said, jumping for joy, but right almost hitting Sucy on accident.

"Don't make us rethink that." Sucy said, annoyed.

"Axl! Dragonfly! You're the last two!" Chris said.

"You don't get candy, you don't get another shot!" Chris said.

"Dragonfly! You have been quoted as, from your own teammates 'Annoying, useless, and a disgrace of a martial artist'. Any thoughts?" Chef asked.

"We gon' see who's a disgrace when I kick y'all sorry a[censored]es back to Timbuktu so hard you'll have two Buckteeth!" Dragonfly said.

Rocky was the only one that really laughed. Adrien and Kise, while they both had a great sense of humor, weren't laughing as hard as Rocky was.

"Please stop. It's not that funny." Sucy said.

Rocky after a few more seconds, calmed himself and stopped, clearing his throat. "Please continue."

"Axl! There are some here that believe getting off the railing was a bad decision that costed your team the race! You gambled, and it failed." Chef said.

"Sure, I couldn't win. But I won't one loss bring me down! I'm ready for the next challenge!" Axl said.

"For one of you, there won't be a next challenge! And Axl, if you go, then Zero and X are out too." Chris said.

"The final ring pop goes to…"

"Axl!"

"Yes!"

"Axl! Looks like you might get another shot after all! Dragonfly! Not so much!" Chris said, tossing him a parachute backpack.

"Congrats, you did the impossible. You beat out Dan when it comes to being useless and a bad martial artist." Noah said.

"So it was you who said it? Let's go punk!" Dragonfly said, going to where Noah was only for Heloise to press a button while eating, activating the parachute and sending him flying backwards before Chris pushed him out of the plane, sending him falling before he fell into a portal, crashing into someone's pool, with the people inside it yelling.

A man from inside a house opened a door to see what was going on.

He went to confront Dragonfly who attempted to defend himself, only to be knocked out.

"Y'all alright?" The man asked the people that were in the pool.

"Silence." Dragonfly said, laid out, half conscious before completely losing consciousness.

"Good riddance." Sucy said.

"Enjoy your ring pops guys! And Chef's Special gumbo!" Chris said as a pot full of bubbling green was seen causing everyone to either look on or groan in disgust.

Kagami(Radical Rats):

"Usually I'm open minded when it comes to eating. But what the hell was that!? That was horrible!"

Sucy(Radical Rats):

"Rocky just reminds me of Akko. Just way too hyper to the point of being annoying at times. But, at least there's other nice qualities to them. Rocky seems nice. Just way too hyper. Again, just like Akko. Dragonfly was just…. annoying."

***End Confessional***

"And Dragonfly's the fist to take the drop of shame! Not sure where he was dropped, but it should be pretty close to where he lives? I think?" Chris said. "Who'll take the drop next? What other crazy challenges will the contestants be put through? Find out next time on Total….. Drama….. Across the Multiverse!"
