Chapter 14: The Toxicity Challenge

They all left for where they needed to go. Sulley and Y/N were lagging behind while the others were ahead.

"Y/N, how do you put up with One Eye?" Sulley asked.

"Mike and I have been best friends since we were in kindergarten. I don't understand why the two of you are always at each other's throats," Y/N answered.

"He always has to be a big Know-It-All. No offense, but I'm surprised you weren't, considering you studied the same amount of time as he did," he pointed out.

"Sulley, I know that scaring may sound easier than others let on, but it really depends on what the child is afraid of that effects them the most. You can't just do a roar every time and expect the same result," she explained.

"I've done it before; I can do it again. But thanks for the tip, babe," Sulley smirked.

Y/N playfully rolled her eyes and commented, "Cute nickname. Should I come up with one for you?"

"Like what?" he asked.

"How about Blue Boy?" she smirked.

Sulley cringed and said, "No way. That is not happening."

"Blue Boy it is then," Y/N smiled.

Sulley just chuckled as he put an arm around her.

"You're feisty," he commented.

"I try to be," she responded.

Oozma Kappa walked in a sewer to where they needed to go.

"Of all the sewers on campus, this one has always been my favorite," Art commented.

"Art, you've been here before?" Terry asked.

"I have a life outside of the house, you know," Art answered.

"Welcome to your worst nightmare, the Scare Games!" Brock shouted.

They looked around to see monsters cheering in the dark.

"Yes! Yes, I love it! I love this energy! Okay. Okay, everybody," Brock cheered.

"Let's hear it for the frats and sororities competing in this year's games...Jaws Theta Chi!" Claire announced.

"Python Nu Kappa!" Brock added.

C- "Slugma Slugma Kappa!"

B- "Roar Omega Roar!"

C- "Eta Hiss Hiss!"

B- "And finally, Oozma Kappa."

All the monsters cheered for each team except Oozma Kappa. The only one who did cheer for OK was Miss Squibbles.

"Yay! Whoo-hoo!" she cheered.

"Hi, Mom!" Squishy waved.

"Smile!" Miss Squibbles instructed and took a picture of them.

Mike just sighed in embarrassment.

"Let's begin the first competition, the Toxicity Challenge!" Brock announced.

"Human children are toxic! And anything they touch is toxic," Claire started.

"We don't have any human toys, but thanks to MU's biology department, we found a close second," Brock explained as Claire pulled out a tool that held something in a metal box and Brock continued, "The stinging glow urchin! Trust me when I say, you are not gonna want to touch this bad boy!"

"I want to touch it," Art insisted.

"And you certainly don't want to touch any of its friends," Claire added.

Everyone looked inside the tunnel to see the urchins all over the floor.

"Yeah, I want to touch them," Art decided.

"This is the starting line. The light at the end of the tunnel is the finish line," Brock informed.

"And whoever comes in last is eliminated from the games," Claire finished.

This worried Mike and Y/N a little, considering the odds of them winning.

"Mike..." Squishy started.

Mike jumped then wondered, "What is it?"

"Does that mean if we lose, we're out?" Squishy asked.

"Don't worry, Smoothie," Mike assured.

"Squishy!" Squishy corrected.

"Squishy. We're not going to lose, because we have everything we need to win right here," Mike said, pointing at his chest and Y/N.

"Heart," Squishy guessed.

"No! Me and Y/N. We're going to win the race for us," Mike exclaimed.

"All right, all right. That's very cute, but move, move, move. We're going to win this," Sulley said, pulling Y/N to his side as he approached the starting line.

"It's an obstacle course. What are you going to do? Roar at it?" Mike asked.

"I can get through faster than you, little guy," Sulley stated.

"I'm gonna strangle the both of you if we lose," Y/N warned.

Sulley and Mike just glared at each other then prepared themselves for the race.

"Take your place at the starting line!" Claire said.

The other teams were working as one while it seemed the OK team were working as seven members while Mike, Sulley, and Y/N prepared to run.

"I'm going to beat you over that finish line," Mike stated.

"Get ready to eat my dust," Sulley threw back.

"Kill me now," Y/N mumbled.

"Hey, guys, should we huddle up?" Squishy asked, but they just lined up.

"Attention, teams. One last thing. Scarers work in the dark," Claire smirked and pulled a switch.

All the lights went off and the only light sources in the tunnel was at the end of it and the urchins.

"I want to go home!" Squishy shuddered.

"On your marks..." Brock yelled.

"Hey, uh, good luck, ladies," Terry said to the PNKs.

"Thanks! We're going to rip you to pieces!" the member closest to them said enthusiastically.

"What?" Terry questioned.

All members of the PNKs hissed as their eyes glowed red, making Terry, Terri, and Squishy gasp.

"Get set..." Brock continued.

Mike and Sulley glared at each other again and prepared to run while Y/N rolled her eyes and readied herself.

"Go!" Brock hollered.

All the teams started running straight for the finish line while Art ran right for the urchins.

"I'm going to touch them!" he exclaimed.

He dove onto the floor and hugged a pile of them. But wherever they were on his body, that area swelled up tremendously, making him scream. The others gasped at this and continued to run, but with caution. But Y/N, Mike, and Sulley were running ahead of the other members.

"Uh, guys! We're falling behind a little! Fellas!" Don called until he stepped on an urchin and sitting on some more, exclaiming, "Cheese and crackers! Son of a mustache! Salisbury steak, that hurts!"

"Is that as fast as you can go?" Mike taunted.

"Just getting started!" Sulley said.

"Just focus on running!" Y/N yelled.

Then they all saw that other students were slinging more urchins at them with slingshots. One hit Sulley in the shoulder, making it swell and when he got it off, his paw swelled up.

"That's got to hurt!" Mike teased until one hit his leg and it swelled up.

"Are you guys okay?!" Y/N asked until she felt one hit her back.

It swelled up really bad, but she kept running along with the others.

"Terry!" Terri shouted.

"Don't worry, we'll be fi--" Terry assured until he got hit in the head with an urchin then one of their tentacles, making them fall.

Then three hit Squishy in the face and when he screamed, one was flung in his mouth and he swelled up into a ball.

Mike, Sulley, and Y/N kept going as they ran through urchins that hung low from the ceiling. They were hit all over as the first team crossed the finish line.

"Roar Omega Roar wins!" Brock announced.

Y/N crossed the finish line after them while Mike and Sulley leapt for the finish line. It was a tie, but they insisted that one of them won.

"Take that, Wazowski!" Sulley said, muffled from all the swelling.

"Are you delirious? I beat you!" Mike argued, also muffled.

"Get your eye checked!" Sulley snapped.

"Guys, you both tied!" Y/N replied, also muffled.

"Oh, way to blow it, Oozmas!" Chet shouted.

"Hey! Second place ain't bad," Mike pointed out.

"Second place, Jaws Theta Chi!" Brock remarked.

"What?" Sulley asked, confused.

"Your whole team has to cross the finish line," Johnny said.

"Are you kidding me?" Y/N said, glaring at Mike and Sulley.

"Third place, EEKs! Fourth place, PNKs!" Brock continued.

"No," Mike stated.

"Fifth place, HSS!" Brock kept going.

"No, no, no!" Y/N exclaimed.

"And in last place, Oozma Kappa," Brock finished.

The rest of Oozma Kappa came out, swelled up everywhere.

"I can't feel my anything," Squishy remarked as Don fainted.

"Oh shocker! Oozma Kappa has been eliminated!" Claire announced as she took the green wood with the "OK" logo on it off the board.

"No," Mike said in disbelief.

He started backing away until he bumped into someone. He turned around to see Hardscrabble as Y/N approached them.

"Don't look so surprised, Mr. Wazowski. Same with you, Miss M/L/N. It would have taken a miracle for you to--" she started.

"Attention, everyone. We have an announcement. Jaws Theta Chi has been disqualified," Brock explained, making everyone gasp, then he continued, "The use of illegal protective gel is cause for elimination."

"What!" the president of Jaws Theta Chi scoffed like it wasn't true.

But one of the refs tested it. Nothing worked on that monster the first time, but after he wiped it off and did it again, it swelled up.

"Which means Oozma Kappa is back in the games! It's a miracle!" Brock shouted.

Hardscrabble grimaced and tried to point out, "Your luck will run out, eventually."

Mike and Y/N were relieved, but they looked at their team, who just smiled and waved at them.

"This is going to be harder than I thought," Mike said.

"You said it," Y/N added.

Brock took off the "JTC" wood and Claire put the "OK" wood back.
