Rock

Me and Tomatoey were talking about just stuff before we were here. "You know I have a 1 year old back at home. His name is Charlie. I really hope my brother is there to watch him while I'm gone.." she said in a slightly sad tone. "Oh. What about his dad? Why can't he watch him?" I asked. After she looks down "...he..isn't with us anymore" OH SHIT OH FUCK OH CRAP. "OH IM SO SO SO SORRY-" I quickly say realizing my mistake "no no it's fine! You had no clue!" She says trying to make me not feel as bad. "Still. Sorry for your loss Tomatoey" "it's fine, it happened a year ago anyway" she says. There's a pause. "Hey..I know we're not meant to use our real names but what's yours?" I ask "oh. Its Alice! What about you?" "Owen" I respond "good name" this entire time candy bar has been refusing to talk to me for costing us the challenge. I don't know why he wants to stay so badly. We were forced to play and he is probably the only one who wants to play at all. "Owen?." Alice said. "Oh yeah?" "What would you wish for if you won?" She asked. I had to think a good while. "Huh.. probably.." I again pause. Do I want to tell her. "Uh. A better job I guess." I lie. She looks at me as if she knows im lying but shrugs it off. "I would wish the best for my son. I already have lived threw most of my life and want him to-" She says. She's cut off. And gone. "What the.." I say. "Tomatoey is eliminated." Airy says. "The next challenge will begin soon. Also uh.. I guess I should add a few more people to even out the teams huh..." "No shit you should.." Candy bar mumbles to himself. "So uh. Give me a few minutes.." I look at Parker. Yeah no. I look at the new team. Lighty, SD card, and pop tart. I walk over to start a conversation. Pop tart and SD card are sleeping while Lighty is burning stuff out of pure boredom. "Hi Lighty" I say, he doesn't expect me to talk to him so he jolts forward almost burning the ground. He clicks himself back. "Oh..hi" lighty says reluctantly. He probably dislikes people. I sit down next to him. "So uh. Where were you, ya know. before all of this plane, airy, all that." I asked. "Oh. Yeah I was in some homeless shelter in New York. It's hard to get a job these days." He responded with. "Okay contestants... I got the new people.. one is a re-joiner.. because uh..I couldn't find many other people.." wait.. "re-joiner?" They were other contestants? Other times beside this one? Jesus.. a stone and little..green..guy..thing.. appear. The stone looks panicked. They look around and then see me and seem a little less stressed than before. Huh. I guess they don't have a mouth. "wha- wait- where am I? Who are you guys? Why am I here? What happened?" The little green thing says. "Your in a competition to win the prize to wish for one things. anything you can think of." Airy says the the new contestants. "Just uh..pick who you want to be on the team with.. only fast food workers or Halloween candy though... so uh. New comers go near the woods I guess." Lighty wakes up pop tart and SD card and they go near the woods. I go back to Parker. Stocking and mustard and been plaining something. Don't know what but something. "Okay.. oh wait no I have to give you names.. uh.. greeny and rock... there.." rock walks up me me and Parker. They wave to me and I wave back. He uses sign language to try to talk to me. I know a bit but not enough to know what there saying. "Sorry rock. I don't know sign language.." I tell them. They look disappointed. Greeny walks the stocking and mustard and talks about what ever with them. "Okay contestants.. the next challenge is uh.. a art challenge.. yeah.. a art challenge.. just uh... I'll give you a canvas and you will have to paint one of your teammates on it..who ever has the worst or no painting loses.. begin." 3 canvases and a in ungodly amount of paint appear. Stone immediately goes to gets a canvas and paint. They start painting Candy bar on the canvas. "What the.. whats it doing." Candy bar asks "painting you. That's the challenge." Stone keeps adding more and more little details on to the painting. "Hey stone can I help?" Stone shakes there head. Okay then. Rude. I look around. Stocking and mustard are drawing greeny. Probably because he already looks like a drawing made by a child. SD card and pop tart are drawing lighty who looks like he is seconds from just passing out. Stone taps me on the shoulder to show me the painting.

"Woah..it looks amazing rock!" I say. And if I have to be honest. It's even better than amazing. Better than perfect. Better than words can put it. I know it's more dark than the plane. But that's just it. There style is just..so..nice and the fact they did it in such little time is just outstanding. I just look at it for a bit longer and smile. I just sit down and look at stone. I don't know how they can do that. But the fact they can even paint at all is amazing. I can't even draw with pencil and paper and here stone is with so much talent. "Okay contestants time is up. I'll just uh. Look at your paintings now." We all wait for a bit. "Halloween candy and fast food workers have the best paintings. New comers are up for elimination."
