Surge: Hey guys! Got us tickets to Hawaii!

X: Wait, that's my job to announce random trips!

Surge: Yea? Well, every trip that you've put together led to ruin and disaster.

X: What makes you think that you will do better?

Surge: It's Hawaii, what could go wrong?

MV: I have more faith in surge, so I'm down for a tropical vacation.

Vortex: Yea, why not? Hawaii's the place for.... Well, relaxing.

X: Fine, let's just go...

*4 hours of flight later*

*Boats to remote island*

Scrap Joe: The... This is NOT Hawaii...

Vortex: I was wondering why it was so quiet... wait, Boat, come back!

*Unfortunately the pilot had AirPods in*

Scrap Joe: Surge, lemme see those tickets.

Scrap Joe: Hmmm... SEAGULL ISLAND?!

MV: Well, there are a lot of seagulls, that's for sure.

Vortex: You have got to be kidding me...

Scrap Joe: "For your best and personal relaxation, you will be transferred to a remote island for one week. You will have to scavenge materials by yourself, so only sign up if you are a forager?" Surge?!

X: Guys don't worry, I got my Eagle Scout, we should be fine.

Vortex: I know how to make coconut mango soup... that is if there are coconuts and mangos. We'll be feasting like KINGS!

Surge: I wonder what seagull tastes like? Chicken?

*Vortex morphs hand to axe*

Vortex: I'll get this tree real fast.

Scrap Joe: I mean, you guys sound like you have experience, this shouldn't be too bad...

*2 days later*

MV: Ok, so not to alarm anyone, but I'm starting to go crazy here.

Vortex: I've tried building a hut out of sticks, it's not looking too bad.

*Hut falls apart*

X: Good idea, Vortex, kill us by crushing us with sticks. We'll get out of here in no time.

Surge: Now it looks like an oversized bonfire.

Scrap Joe: Wait, that gave me an idea! We can light the sticks and use the smoke as an SOS.

Vortex: You see, all my projects have secondary uses.

Scrap Joe: We just need flint or something. Rub sticks together or, maybe rocks?

X: I got this.

*Starts rubbing two sticks together at Mach 10*

*Lights himself on fire*

X: See? Everything will be fi- oh I'm on fire.

Scrap Joe: You might want to control that before anything happe...

*The entire island is up in flames*

MV: You know? This isn't the worst I've been in.

Surge: Hey guys, I got good news and bad news, the good news is all of these fire's are gonna be put out very shortly, the bad news is that they will be put out by that tsunami coming towards us.

Vortex: Well fu-

*Tsunami crashes into island*

*The next morning*

MV: Am I dead yet?

X: No, just a painful water lullaby.

*Scrap Joe digs his way out of a bunch swept up seaweed on the shore*

Scrap Joe: Can we just be done now?!

X: As much as I would love to lie on the ground and parish, we can't.

Vortex: I'm about to go insane right now.

*A couple days pass*

Scrap Joe: Ok, good news! We only have two days left on this HEAVEN FORBID island! I made goodie bags.

*Vortex hiding somewhere on the island from the rest of the gang with a rock*

Vortex: Phil, thanks for being there for me, I'm mentally dying and I'm gonna cry.

*Phil just stares back*

Surge: Vortex? What the heck are you doing back here?

Vortex: Just hanging out with my friend, Phil.

Surge: YO! He looks awesome!

Vortex: Are you trying to steal my best friend? Back off, he's mine!

Surge: What? Pftftf, no! Of course not, why would I do that? We've just met, it would be totally unreasonable-- GUYS, VORTEX HAS SOMETHING!!!

Vortex: NOOOOOO!!!

X: What? What, what is it?

Surge: Vortex made a new buddy right here.

Scrap Joe: I have been alone for like 5 DAYS!! May I talk to him please? :)

Vortex: PHIL, RUN!!!

Surge: Ahah!! He's mine now!

X: Hey! I want a rock named Phil specifically! Give it here!

*Surge darts off, everyone pursuits him*

Scrap Joe: NO! YOU'LL NEVER HAVE PHIL!!

Vortex: Don't fall for him Phil, he's only using you!

*Phil is sad now*

Surge: IF I CAN'T HAVE HIM, NO ONE CAN!!!

*Surge eats Phil*

Everyone: NOOOOOOO!!!!!

MV: *Yawn* Hey guys, back from my power nap, what did I miss? ... Why is everyone crying?

Scrap Joe: Surge is a murderer, he ate Phil!

MV: I'm going to pretend I know who that is. Why did he eat Phil?

Surge: Because no one deserves him!

Vortex: Maybe not, but he didn't deserve death!

X: We lost an innocent soul this very day...

MV: Oh great, X lost his lid too.

Scrap Joe: How could anyone keep their sanity on this dang Island?!

MV: I live with Vortex everyday. I have a technique. I sleep for 12 hours of the day, and all my worries melt away in my nightmares.

Vortex: Why, WHY, WHY, MUST I SUFFER?!!

MV: Look, we have one day until that boat arrives, can you at least try not to rip each other apart?

Surge: I'm gonna sleep on the opposite side of Island.

*One painful night later*

Random boat guy: Ahoy! How did you enjoy your vacation?

Everyone: *Bloodshot Eyes*

Random boat guy: I- erm, assume you're not foragers.

Vortex: Please, just take us home

Random boat guy: Mmm okay.

*They all had therapy sessions after that*
