Chapter 16: Phobia Factor (Part 2)
(3d POV)
It was now 3 days later and everyone sat in the mess hall waiting for Chris to anounce the nect challenge.
"Campers." He started, in a deep voice for drama. " You next challenge is a little game I'd like to call 'Phobia Factor'. Prepare to face, you worst fears."
"Worst than this?" Lishawna asked holding up a dark hairy sausage shaped thing on her fork.
"We're in trouble." Gwen stated.
"Now for our first victims." Chris said, reading a small card before pointing at the door. "Heather. Meet us all at the theater. It's sumo time!" The girl in question spat out her drink in shock, leaving Trent all wet. "Gwen, you, me, the beach, a few tons of sand." Gwen gasped.
"Wait how do they know that those were your biggest fears?" Lindsay asked
Gwen slapped her forehead while saying, "Because we told them."
"Seeing Lindsay's confused look, Trent followed, "At the camp fire after Nick got eliminated."
"Wait they were listening to us?" She asked while standing up worriedly.
"It's a reality show genius. They're always listening to us." Gwen stated.
"But that's like eavesdropping." She said.
"Chief hatchet! Didn't you have a special order for Tyler here today?" Chris asked while going over the list.
Chief smirked while flipped something in the deep fryer before carrying it over to Tyler.
Seeing it was something fried and shaped like a turtle, Mia placed her hand on his shoulder in support and whispered, "You can do this. It's just like we practiced."
With a small nod, Tyler hesitated to grab it before biting off the head.
Unexpectedly a turtle popped it's head out from inside and Tyler made a show of throwing it away before running out the door.
Later the teams stood in front of a rubber pool filled with bugs. Both teams watched in disgust at Beth's challenge. Tyler vomited while Owen fainted.
Beth gulped before jumping in then came out with a smile on her face and worms in her teeth. Her team cheering loudly for her.
"And Beth sets the bar way up there." Chris said.
Later on, Chris took pleasure in placing an ugly wig on Lindsay while chief helped Sadie and Kadie onto their 14 inch heels before stepping aside, finding it slightly amusing as they try to support each other.
Owen and Izzy turn came as Chief who was in a female flight attendant's outfit for some reason, opened the door of the plane for them to enter. Once the plane took off, Owen and Izzy started screaming and it became clear that the plain wasn't in good condition of duck tape came off the wing showing a slight crack.
Harold, DJ and Duncan were in the bathroom when Harold asked from inside one of the stall, "Do you think her plan will would?"
"Mia is the captain of the chess club and would have won nationals if she she hadn't fallen sick. I don't know much about chess but I do know you have to be smart for it." Duncan said while washing his hand. "There was even this one girl who went to our girl and thought she could take it over with her money while trampling over anyone she deemed to be weak. Unfortunately for her, one of them was Mia."
"What happened to her?" He asked, pulling up his pants and exiting the stalls.
Duncan shrugged before continuing, "Don't know. I was suspended at the time but when I went back, I heard about her picking on Mia and the next day, she tried blaming Mia for everything bad that happened to her but she couldn't prove anything. Hair lose, stolen stuff, surprise pranks even her clothes going missing in the showers. In the end, I heard she moved."
"Wow." DJ would never expect that someone who was so nice to everyone would be so devious.
"She knows what she's doing. We should just be glad she's on our team." Duncan stated while heading for the door only to find out locked then the lights went out and the sky light was covered so the room became pitch black.
"Stay in there for 2 hours and you'll pass." Chris said form outside in amusement.
"Chris!" Duncan yelled while punching the door once in anger cause the host to laugh.
After a while, "What do we do now?" Harold asked him.
Duncan didn't dislike Harold but because he was the exact opposite of him, he didn't like him either. It was only because of Mia that he tolerated him.
Duncan sighed in frustration and said, "Sorry about this." Before punching Harold in the face.
Lishawna backed away from the group before turning to run and scream as chief followed her in a spider costume.
At the theater, Heath faced off against a sumo wrestler. He ran towards her only for for her to bend down in fear and trip over her, falling off the stage.
"And Heather scores the gophers their second point." Chris said.
While Owen and Izzy were still up in the plane as it take a few loops, Bridgette was facing her fear of thunder storms in the cabin with a loud sound machine and the set crew mimicking the lightings at the window for 2 hours. She tried her best to seem like she was cowering in a corner.
Everyone else was watching Chris who had just finished burying Gwen with Trent beside him, talking to her from a walkie talkie to calm her down.
At the theater again, it was Mia's turn to face a large snake.
"You just have to hug it." Chris said
With hesitation, she closed her eyes before quickly wrapping her arms around it. The snake shockingly wrapped itself around her and nuzzled her cheek.
"This isn't so bad." She stuttered out.
And Mia wins the first point for the base." Chris cheerfully said while watching as the worker tried to move the snake from Mia with great difficulty. "And another admirer."
Trent ran passed the group to escape a mine.
"Just talk to him dude. Tell him to go away." Chris said before turning to Cody. "You're up Cody"
Not long after, Cody stood in front of a makeshift bomb made of garbage, trembling.
"This garbage bomb is going off in 10 minutes. All you need to diffuse it is on this blueprint." Chris smiled while handing him a blue piece of paper.
"What!? There's no way I can do this!" Cody said worriedly
"Then" Chris laughed, "I suggest you find a safe place to hide."
"Wait, you're not gonna watch?" He asked
"No way. That's a live bomb dude." He said before hurrying away.
While Geoff was facing his fear of being alone in the woods and Trent found out he can get away from the mime by jumping into the sea, Mia realized that Duncan, DJ and Harold's time was up and went to Chris.
"Hey Chris," She started, catching his attention who stood with a soaked Trent both watching in amusement as Lishawna still ran away from Chief. "DJ, Harold and Duncan are done."
"Thanks for reminding me." He said before walking away.
"And way the way Trent," Mia started while handing him towel. "Gwen's times up too."
He gave her a look of realization before running off after giving her a brief, 'Thank you'.
After the sound of Cody's bomb exploding covering him in garbage, Mia finally caught up with Chris who had let the guys out of the bathroom. Chris was laughing at the Harold who had a black eye. The camera taking view of several dents and broken items all over the room.
"Wow, would want to be the one to fight you." Chris said.
"So All that's left are Tyler's fear of turtles and Courtney's fear of green jello." Mia said to Chris.
Chris looked confused at first before realizing what she said. While laughing, he took out his phone to make a call and walked away.
With a smirk, Mia turned around to see her team mates giving her different looks. While Duncan had a look of pride, DJ and Harold had one of fear. "What?" She asked.
(Confession)
"She was the only one who didn't admit her fears then tried to turn the argument onto someone else." Mia said in frustration. "I would have been somewhat proud if the person she didn't try to humiliate was Duncan."
After digging up Gwen, Bridgette and Geoff finished their challenge, Owen and Izzy kissed the ground when the plane landed, Lindsay took gladly throw off her ugly wig and Sadie and Kadie breathed a sigh of relief when they finally took off the heels. All that are left are Courtney and Tyler.
Moving on to Tyler who was shaking in fear to have to stay in the Turtle's habitat for 3 minutes.
"Tyler this is the last challenge! Stop being such a girl!" Courtney yelled at him. "With Lishawna and Cody not facing their fears, we have might have a chance to win this."
"Actually, we have one more challenger." Chris said
"What?" Courtney said in confusion. "It's can't be me. But I didn't say anything."
"You didn't have too, we got an insiders tip about you're fear." Chris said, ignoring Tyler and signally his crew to set up a pool full of green jelly with a diving board.
"You're afraid of jelly." Duncan chuckled.
"Shut up! Only the green kind. It's like sugary jiggly snot." Courtney yelled in her defense.
"You can dive face first into this pool of jelly or let your team lose another challenge." Chris said
Courtney stood in place and thought for a moment before heading up the ladder.
"It's ok if you don't do this Courtney." Mia said.
"Of course I have to." Courtney snapped, "We can rely on Tyler if he's shivering in fear."
"Oh I don't think we have to worry about him." Mia muttered to herself.
As she climbed, the gopher team watch and kept saying loudly how disgusting it was.
"Remember what I said Courtney! It's OK if you can't do it!" Mia yelled once she was at the top.
"It is? But we'll lose." Bridgette said while playing alone.
After standing up there quivering, she yelled, "All right! I'm coming down!"
Courtney hung her head in shame as the gopher team cheering for their victory.
"Hold your horses there." Chris said to them while turning their attention to Tyler. "It appears our buddy Tyler has made a new friend." Tyler sat in the pen while timidly feeding the turtle lettuce. "And with the score being 7 to 8. The killer base are the winners and gophers', I see you guys at the bon fire tonight."
