Chapter 10 - Sweets and Pranks
Recap: In the previous chapter, the remaining contestants get to compete in the ninth challenge, which is finding the cause of death of the plushies. Striking Piledrivers has won once again by getting the right answer, causing the Demolition Legends to be up for elimination. Gauri was eliminated from the tiebreaker by losing it to Marcel and Fallon, who are also in the tiebreaker since the three of them have one vote once again.
That's what you missed.
Adrian's POV
Today is the third day of October, yet I don't have anything else to do.
What can I do to celebrate Halloween in a few weeks?
Trick or treating is not one of them on my bucket list, since it's too childish for me to do an event that is for kids.
I can't carve a pumpkin since I have no arms. What else can I do to celebrate this month?
I decided to talk to Warren since he has knowledge that relates to the arts.
I saw Warren carrying a pumpkin that he bought from the market when I saw the price tag on one of the pumpkins.
Adrian: Warren?
Warren: Yes Adrian?
Adrian: What are you going to do with that pumpkin you bought?
Warren: I'll probably make a pumpkin pie with the help of Beatrix or Rayna.
Adrian: What are you going to do with an empty pumpkin?
Warren: I'll probably carve it to make a Jack O' Lantern by using the candle in a traditional way.
Adrian: I have a question.
Warren: Go on.
Adrian: Is trick or treating for kids?
Warren: It's not just for kids but also at any age. Even if you're an adult. Or you can attend the costume party. Anything!
Adrian: Are you sure?
Warren: I'm sure! You can come with me when we are able to go back to a normal place and wear the costumes.
Adrian: Oh...
Warren: It's alright, it's your choice, not theirs.
Adrian: I see...
Penny: Alright everyone! Time for your next challenge!
Adrian: I guess I have to call the remaining contestants to show up. Should I?
Capri: No need. We're all here with our remaining teammates.
Brynn: Yeah, don't worry. Even if Pierce is here to remove the threat by getting our team up for elimination.
Pierce: What? My plan always works!
Penny: Um... anyway, time to ride the bus to go to the city for the next challenge.
Guess it's time for me to get on the bus if I want to know what's the next challenge.
End of Adrian's POV
All of the remaining contestants went inside the bus before the bus driver started the bus before driving.
Adrian: (This had better be worth it.)
Pierce: (I don't know what to do during the challenge this month currently.)
Brynn: Cain, do you wonder about the next challenge?
Cain: Not really, since I already know that this is a spooky month.
Brynn: What's a spooky month?
Cain: That's a phrase that I learned from my online friends while playing multiplayer games.
Brynn: Oh. So is it similar to October?
Cain: Sorta.
After a ride to Blahi City, they got off the bus and went to the two empty booths.
Penny: Alright, for the next challenge, you will not just design your booth but also do the trick or treat by filling something into two baskets. Then, at the time where the sun is setting, if one of them chooses trick or treat, you'll give them from one of the baskets of what they want. Don't forget to count how many items they got from one of the two baskets and add both of them to have a total score at the end of the challenge. In the end, whoever gave the kids the most candies and other things relating to this event wins the challenge, while the other team will be up for elimination.
Meanwhile, with Striking Piledrivers
Adrian: Any suggestions for the booth?
Rayna: How about designing it with a white cloth with red stains that look like blood?
Adrian: That might work but we need to add more.
Capri: Fake spiders and cobwebs?
Adrian: Very clever. You know this event too?
Capri: It's one of the good memories I have of getting candies during trick or treating, eating the candies with my friends until we vomit, making a scene.
Adrian: So did you guys get scolded?
Capri: We got scolded together by my parents for telling us not to eat too much candy. So yeah.
Adrian: So, what about candies? And what are the items for pranks?
Destiny: How about fake spiders? As for the candies, it can be anything. What about all kinds of candies would do?
Adrian: Anything else?
Priya: Cockroaches? Sorry... I'm bad at giving a suggestion relating to this.
Adrian: It's alright, we'll check inside the store. Capri and Destiny, you're going with me to buy the candies and anything that is for pranks.
Capri: Yep, that might do.
Rayna: That means Priya, Ollie, and I are going to design the booth.
Adrian: Probably.
Adrian, Capri, and Destiny went to the store to buy the things they needed for their booth.
Meanwhile, with Demolition Legends
Marcel: Any plans for the booth? What was the design for our booth? And what kind of items do we need to put in two baskets?
Cain: I don't know if I should suggest a mannequin with any traditional costumes for display?
Marcel: Anything else?
Brynn: Painting our booth black and having a cutout of an abandoned mansion?
Marcel: What about the candies and the other things for two baskets?
Brynn: Cain and I will go to the market together.
Fallon: Can I join you two?
Brynn: Of course!
Marcel: Guess I have to help this crazy Italian dude...
Pierce: I heard that!
Marcel: Whatever.
Marcel started designing the cutout of the abandoned mansion before cutting it, then painting it.
Pierce: Why did you care about this when you made a dumb decision back then?
Marcel: Huh? Oh. I thought you guys were done with the answer.
Pierce: We aren't done with that!
Marcel: Then, you should have told me to stop before I let this happen!
Pierce signs and decides to kick the booth and the cutout of the abandoned mansion that is still unfinished.
Marcel: Hey! What do you think you're doing to our design!?
Pierce: I would rather make us lose the challenge so I can get rid of you or Fallon! How dare you try to have a host to break up our team!
Marcel: I was just wondering! Can you learn to take a chill pill instead of wasting time being pissed off by Colton, me, and Fallon?
Pierce: I will not let that slide!
Pierce continues to try to destroy their own parts of the design for their booth before Brynn, Cain, and Fallon have arrived on time with the things they needed.
Brynn: Pierce! Stop it this instant!
Pierce: What are you going to do about it!? Have the children to write my face with crayons, you gay ass bitch!?
Marcel sighed and went to knock out Pierce for him to stop.
Brynn: I guess that would do.
Brynn and Cain go to help Marcel with fixing the design while Fallon is watching over Pierce, who is still knocked out.
Marcel: I hate this spaghetti plate...
Brynn: I hate him for how he acted. First he wanted to get rid of either of you two because "you wanted to break the teams", and now he's going too far, which is getting out of hand.
Cain: Now we have to fix this on what he destroyed! He's lucky, you know...
The three members of Demolition Legends are fixing the cutout before placing it in their booth.
Marcel has the idea of what to do with Pierce as a payback for nearly destroying their own parts for their booth.
Marcel: I have an idea. What if we add ketchup so he looks like a dummy and is knocked out in the worst way?
Cain: I'll go with that.
Marcel pours the ketchup that Cain bought on Pierce's head so that it looks like his head is bleeding.
They put him beside their booth.
After hours had gone by and the sun was setting, the kids went to one of the booths to get something based on their choices.
Kid 1: Let's try that one! *points to the left where Striking Piledrivers are in the booth*
They both went to the booth on the left.
Kid 1: Trick or treat!
Adrian: You can decide. Pick one.
One of them picks a treat and the other picks a trick by getting it from the basket.
They get a candy and a fake spider, which one of them screams and throws the fake spider.
Then a group of friends went to the left booth to get the candies or the other goodies from another basket.
Blueberry Lollipop + Strawberry Lollipop + Liquid Sphere: Trick or treat!
Marcel: You can decide which one you will pick. Choose one.
Strawberry Lollipop: Aw you're no fun!
Strawberry Lollipop left to wait for her friends while Blueberry Lollipop and Liquid Sphere picked the candies from one of the baskets.
Marcel: Looks like one of the kids didn't pick one. Am I too harsh about telling them to pick one?
Fallon: I don't think you're too harsh.
Marcel: Oh.
After 3 hours, Penny decided to end the challenge so she could look at the score of who won.
Penny: Alright! Time's up! Add up your scores from the basket that the kids get from.
Some of the teammates from both teams are adding both scores to make a total score.
One of the members from both teams gave Penny a slip of paper that had the total score.
Then Penny reads the score.
Penny: So far, Striking Piledrivers has a score of 44. And Demolition Legends has a score of 32. Which means, Striking Piledrivers has won the challenge once again, and Demolition Legends are up for elimination.
Marcel: Are you kidding me!?
Pierce woke up and noticed that the challenge was over.
Pierce: What happened...?
Marcel: Pierce, thanks a lot for making us miss a challenge by nearly destroying parts of the booth!
Pierce rolled his eyes.
Pierce: At least my plan works!
Cain: Who cares!?
Penny: Viewers vote for one of the members of Demolition Legends to be eliminated. The contestant with the most votes will leave the show. And you can vote on which one of the eliminated contestants will join the show?
Penny: As for the eliminated contestants, what will you say to the viewers?
Brayden: I don't know if I should go back, but I don't need to join the game, since I can spend time with my friends.
Warren: I'm not sure about going back into the game, but I'll try my hardest.
Rosaria: I could give it a try, so no pressure on choosing me or others.
Penny: (You're selfless, Rosaria.)
Peggy: Maybe I can try to keep myself together and help my team if you guys voted for me.
Beatrix: I want to join the game so I can be with my sister.
Spencer: Should I come back to watch over Capri? Maybe I should, since I'm one of the friends that Capri trusted.
Colton: Please vote for me so I can take revenge on Pierce!
Molly: I don't want to join the game other than spending time here, even in the city for a little while.
Gauri: I would join if no tiebreakers had happened.
Penny: And that's it everyone!
