Recap: In the previous chapter, the remaining contestants get to compete in the seventh challenge, which is going down the stairs without walking. Demolition Legends won once again due to them rolling inside the air bubble, while Striking Piledrivers are up for elimination due to them reaching down the ground in a second after Demolition Legends had made it before them. Colton was eliminated by 3 votes, which causes Pierce to do a "Take a L" dance, since Colton is out of the game.

That's what you missed.

Marcel's POV

Man, it's been a good day knowing that we're unstoppable after Striking Piledrivers has lost to our team two times already.

Guess that means that we're going to win this one and remain in the team.

Warren: Hey Marcel.

Marcel: Yeah?

Warren: How's the competition so far?

Marcel: Still winning two times already after Striking Piledrivers tried to take a lead into winning.

Warren: That's great!

Marcel: Say, how's life outside the competition?

Warren: It's not bad, I happened to find a store where I can paint a mug or customize a mug in the cafe.

Marcel: Did you try to paint it or make your own?

Warren: I made my own, which is made of ceramic.

Marcel: That's nice, I would visit one if I had time after a challenge or a whole competition.

Warren: Then it's recommended for you to make one.

Penny: Alright, time for the next challenge!

Marcel: Are you kidding me?

Penny: Ah, sorry if I disturb you two. How about 20 minutes? Sounds good?

Marcel: Yes, sounds good to us.

Penny: And don't forget to tell the remaining contestants that we have 20 minutes to rest and enjoy the morning before we do a challenge, okay?

Marcel: Alright.

We both left for the cabins to remind everyone that we could have 20 minutes of rest while Warren went to the girls' cabin to remind them as well.

20 minutes later, they get to have a breather

Marcel: Looks like we have to go out.

Warren: Good luck on the challenge.

Marcel: Thanks, I need it.

I went out of the cabin along with the remaining contestants to meet up with Penny to explain what the next challenge was.

We went to Penny, who was waiting for us, along with the table of art materials and the theatre box that was good for us to do a puppet show.

End of Marcel's POV

Penny: Alright, for the next challenge is that we're doing the puppet show by making not just your own puppets, but also the story.

Penny: I'll give you an hour to make a story and your own puppets. You can add details to a story if you want. After an hour has ended, you can tell a story by having one member of your team to narrate the story. Whoever has the most cheers wins and the other will be up for elimination.

Penny: You're wondering who they are to cheer on your own story? The guests will arrive by the time you guys are finished.

Penny: And yes, creativity is a part of this challenge. Other than that, begin!

Meanwhile, with Striking Piledrivers

Destiny: So what are we planning for the story and the design of our own puppets?

Capri: It depends as long as we use it all the time to finish the story and our own puppets using our art skills and our creativity.

Destiny: Then what story should we make?

Adrian: How about a war?

Destiny: Or a fantasy like our genre? I know you'll hate my suggestion, but yeah, that's what I got.

Adrian: When it comes to character development and a good plot, that'll be fine.

Destiny: Capri, is it okay if you'd help me with creating the puppets? I know it's hard to ask, but it's okay if you won't and stick up with the story instead.

Capri: Since art isn't much my thing, I'll stick up with the story.

Destiny: Suit yourself.

Capri: So who will work with me on making a story?

Adrian: I'll go with you to work on the story by suggestion.

Priya: Me too, since I have no arms to do with making puppets.

The three proceed to create a story.

Rayna: So that leaves me to you, Ollie, and me to make puppets and props.

Destiny: I can share with you my skills for those.

Rayna: Ollie, please help us with the props.

Ollie: Food?

Destiny: Have a leftover of a cake that I saved for you.

Destiny gave him the box of the leftover cake that she didn't want, since she needed Ollie to help her team with every challenge.

Destiny: Would that be enough? Please eat this after a challenge.

Ollie: Yep, that'll be enough for this challenge, and I won't eat it yet.

Ollie went to help his teammates with making puppets and props by using his plan, although sometimes they are useful and sometimes are useless.

Rayna: Or could we wait for them to finish a story?

Destiny: Might do.

Then Rayna and Destiny saw Ollie has started making the puppets after Capri tells him the characters that they're going to make.

Capri: Feel free to make your own concept as long it's based on their character development or something.

Rayna: Guess we should work for those since Ollie is going to help us.

Destiny nodded before the two started helping Ollie with the puppets and the props.

Meanwhile, with Demolition Legends

Marcel: Any suggestions?

Fallon: A war?

Marcel: A war between..?

Pierce: Italians and other people who ate the Italian food like psychos!

Marcel: That's not a good suggestion..

Fallon: I agree.

Pierce: Whatever! It's just a suggestion!

Marcel: So a war between who exactly?

None of them said anything or said any suggestions.

Marcel: Well, we'll make the puppets and the story at Pierce's suggestion, since none of you guys suggest anything.

Fallon: (This is going to be chaotic.)

Marcel: Now who's going to make a story and puppets along with the props?

Fallon: I would love to help with making puppets, but I don't have arms.

Marcel: Fine, for those who don't have arms will have to help the rest with making a story.

Fallon, Marcel, and Pierce are planning the plots in the story that they're going to create.

Gauri, Brynn, and Cain are creating the puppets and the props that are based on the script of the story.

Cain: Bry, can you please pass me the marker?

Brynn: Of course darling~

Brynn passed the marker to Cain before Cain grabs it before doing the outlines on the props he made.

Brynn was helping the rest by making the puppets by coloring them and outlining them afterwards.

Brynn: Babe, you did a great job with this one.

Cain: Thank you, you did great too.

Marcel: Alright lovebirds, you can flirt with each other later.

Cain + Brynn: Sorry!

Pierce: (Why are you gay?)

The rest are finishing the story and the puppets along with the props before finalizing the things they need for presentation with art.

Molly: Marcel, is that all of the things needed? I want to help.

Marcel: You can sit since we're good for now.

Molly: Alright..

An hour had passed by, Penny had decided to call both of the teams since the guests were there.

Penny: Alright, time's up! Stop what you're doing. We're going to present your art of puppets.

Pax: All we need is one member from each team to pull out a slip of paper from the bowl to see which one will perform first.

Rayna: Capri, is it okay to be the one to get a slip of paper?

Capri: Alright, if you want to get this done.

Capri went there, waiting for one of the members from Demolition Legends to get there.

Marcel: I'll volunteer to do it.

Pierce: Go ahead.

Marcel went to Capri before both of them grabbed a slip of paper from the bowl.

They both opened the paper.

Capri: Why did I get number 2?

Pax: That means your team will be next after Demolition Legends will finish presenting their story.

Rayna + Destiny: Yes!

Marcel: Let's do it like there's no tomorrow.

Brynn: Alright sure. Cain and I will prepare the puppets and the props.

The couple went to get the puppets and the props before going back to their teammates.

Marcel: Is everyone ready for storytelling?

Fallon: Ready!

They went to the theatre box to prepare the props and the puppets.

Marcel: Once upon a time, somewhere in Italy, there was a group of psychopaths who pissed off the Italians by eating their Italian foods in the wrong way.

Marcel: (Please kill me but I'll do what I must do.)

Pierce: Give me the pizza, ravioli, spaghetti, and whatever you have!

Fallon: No way! You're going to piss off the Italians!

Marcel: Then, they suddenly started a war between the psychopaths and the Italians by using cooking utensils.

Marcel: (Okay, that sounds quite stupid yet concerning right now.)

Fallon: I'll avenge the Italians so they can eat it peacefully in their country with the pasta!

Pierce: No! I'll make sure that they're brave enough to eat pizza with pineapples!

Pierce: (Okay, I regret that.)

Marcel: After months of war happening between them, the Italians have won a war, causing them to ban them from going to Italy to piss them off.

Marcel: The end.

Marcel: (Now I need a break from this..)

The whole audience, including Colton, are booing at Demolition Legends instead of cheering them, since not everyone is Italian like Pierce.

Penny: Hate to say it, but none of them like this one, since not everyone is cultural for Italian food since they're from a different country.

Pierce: Dang it!

Penny: Next up is Striking Piledrivers.

Capri, Adrian, and Priya are prepared with a script while Destiny, Rayna, and Ollie are prepared with the puppets and props.

They went to the theatre box before they started telling the story, after the three prepared a prop as well.

Rayna: Is everyone ready?

They all nodded.

Capri: Once upon a time, there was a little boy at school who didn't have friends at school. The reason why he doesn't have friends is that he is shy yet mysterious to make a move when it comes to having a friendship with others.

Adrian: Why did they have to be scared of me? What did I do...?

Capri: Until one day, at recess, one student from a different class turns out that they were in the same grade as the little boy.

Priya: Are you okay? Where are your friends?

Adrian: I don't have friends...

Priya: I see... well I can be your friend.

Adrian: Really?

Priya: I can be your friend so you won't feel lonely.

Capri: Then the two spend time with each other despite one of them being funny but friendly, which the little boy needed for his lonely life at school.

Capri: The End.

Some of the audience were awed and others cheered at the story since they found it wholesome, which most of them could relate to.

Penny: Looks like Striking Piledrivers has the most cheers and awes.

Bryon: That means Striking Piledrivers wins, Demolition Legends are up for elimination.

Marcel: Guess we have no choice about that.

Pierce: I regret it.

Colton: Nice story, no wonder you didn't know that the audience weren't Italians.

Pierce: Whatever, that's the only thing in my head.

Molly: So that means one of us is leaving the show.

Penny: Viewers vote for one of the members of Demolition Legends to be eliminated. The contestant with the most votes will leave the show.

Pierce - A
Fallon - B
Molly - C
Brynn - D
Cain - E
Marcel - F
Gauri - G
