As she opened the door to the roof wearing confidence over her shoulder, she was stopped....
SMG4 points an N-Strike elite disruptor while holding a remote in his other hand for the terrascout on his right side.
Meggy: SMG4....
The meme man keeps his grip tightened with a grin while he adjusts his nerf bandolier.
SMG4: Nice to see you here, Meggy. The effort was clearly there and I'm surprised you brought your team this far but.... You clearly never got smarter from the last challenge....
"How did you-" SMG4 shoots her in the head to cut her off with a smile that never left as he continues to empty his gun on an already eliminated Meggy right as she was about to shoot him.
SMG4: Good job Meggy.
He taunts before the timer finally hit the 0 mark.
X: God dammit that actually worked-
FM: AND THAT IS TIME! Yeah... I don't know how this is legal but by technicality it is...
X: AND I LOST ANOTHER BET! GOD DAMMIT MEGGY!
FM: Both teams! Back to your preparation rooms!
Everybody in both teams exit the castle with their weapons to follow the order....
Meggy proceeded to lock herself in the bathroom as they immediately get to their respective separate rooms while the blue team dances with sunglasses as IceJJFish's "On the floor" plays in the background.
"Shot me... In the god damn face...." The red leader repeats to herself with different stops each time, her team members knock on the door with a bottle of water and a box of tissues ready in hand,"Come on Meggy! It's ok, there's more challenges and another round anyway." Boopkins requested with assurance in his tone. "No! We were doing so well until we got turned into an embarassment! HOW WAS I WAS SUPPOSED TO EVEN KNOW HE WAS BACK?!?!?!?" The poor Meggy asked before continuing to make some whining noises like a little bitch. "Meggy, it's ok! There's still alot more time for us to come back, it's still the first round to the second challenge anyway." The koopa king assured with a baked cupcake in hand as Saiko lays out some plans made after the first challenge ended. "Meggyyyyy... Remember those plans we made? With the progress on how we're doing now I think it's about time we execute them. The team needs you Meggy and even if we don't, we are not doing it without you." Meggy stands up from her white throne in the bathroom taking her hands off his face with a sigh until eventually opening the door, "Alright then... Let's give it a shot." Was the last thing Meggy said before they immediately went back to prepare their weapons.
FM: Interesting first round for the second challenge today, huh?
X: Yeah exactly. We're still on the early stages of this war but alot has already happened.
FM: Mhm..... So, you up to make another bet?
X: Ohhhh no! I've learned my lesson! I'm not making another financially stupid decision-
FM: I'll up the bet from 100$ to 400$ if you do.
X: ..... Ah, I'm sure I'll find a way to pay myself back if I lose again.
FM: You always find a way anyway.
Back in the preparation room, Tari spun around slowly a few times in the mirror overlooking herself in Peach's dress.
Tari: Uhm... I don't think this dress suits me well SMG4...
SMG4: NONSENSE, Tari! You look fanTASTIC! Right guys?
