She starts to fill it slowly, spilling a drop. Grum starts timing her with Roger and Crowe. Eventually, everyone else comes back with the same seed they were carrying. Everyone is covered in mud and stinky. It's almost a stupid picture. Grum has a stopwatch that shows the time left. Roger looks away and starts swearing.)

Arumat: It's taking a lot of time...

Welch: 15 seconds! You're late, birdie!

Sarah: Yes! I've perfected it!

(Spacing out)

(Sarah throws a wheelbarrow at her own head and it breaks on a window, making a shattering noise. She then steps on a nail that came from the ground and falls.)

Sarah: Eeeeep!

(Roger and Crowe uncontrollably begin to laugh by now. Sarah is sad.)

Welch: 20 seconds! Roger and Crowe, don't you dare laugh again!

(Roger and Crowe continue laughing.)

Welch: (Screeching) You think this is FUNNY, wait until I'll make you do the past challenge! Now, back to the campers, you're in a garden of many smells and some of them are rotten.

(Myuria walks up to the bad ones while still holding her seed. Everyone watch her go. She picks up a large bug over her hand and holds it near her face. Smiling, she lets it crawl on her hand and then swallows it entirely. Everybody except for Crowe, Grum and maybe Cliff, is grossed out to some degree.)

Edge: Myuria... you're not being yourself.

Myuria: (Seductive wink) Don't worry, it's a tradition of my species.

(Grum looks at his stopwatch and Welch sighs. Myuria steps back to the others.)

Welch: 25 seconds! Everyone, go get your hoses!

(Fayt and the others run to the sheds. Myuria takes a small watering can and goes into a corner. She quietly fills it with water from a small ditch while still looking around. Once it's half full, she quickly stops and waits. Everyone starts spraying water on her from above as the second hand on the stopwatch hits 16 seconds. The stench comforts her as she smiles. The others see this and go back to their spots. Faize walks over to the watering can, Myuria approaches him with her arms behind her and slowly turns her head while keeping her eyes on the can. He looks at her and she smiles. He leans in and she kisses him briefly. Then, she quickly pulls back and smiles again. Faize is really confused for a moment, then slowly begins to look away. The others do their work, they've won even if they are muddy and hurt, so why not?)

Welch: Time!

Grum: 6 seconds.

Welch: Alright, that's fair. Now, let's head to the next location.

(The others begin dragging the mud and soaking wet campers to the next part of the challenge. As they pass through other plants, Albel notices several things happening at once. Break-time. Arumat and Faize are talking to each other, Fayt is talking excitedly with Sophia, Sophia is complaining about the wetness and Meracle is sleeping. Albel ruins the fun by letting Crowe come, know what's going on and get triggered. A noise was heard. Everyone else stops and looks in the direction of the noise. A man is standing on a patch of long grass. He seems to be watching them with a strange expression on his face. A large cross-like scar is around his neck. He begins walking slowly towards them. Everyone except for Sarah strikes a fighting stance. He stops at Fayt's pace and they both look at each other. Then, one of two events happen. They decide to do something stupid when faced with a surprise ambush attack, or they just run away.
