BFB Hunger Games [COMPLETED]

Chapter 10: Island Eater

Pillow was walking jauntily around the forest. She was beyond elated that one of her hypotheses had actually proven correct, and it looked like she had a pretty good chance of winning this competition, too. She looked at her button with wonder. With it, she felt invincible.

Suddenly, Grassy burst out from the bushes in front of her. He seemed to be wielding a shard of glass - part of Bottle, maybe? Without warning, Grassy lunged forward with it. "Hi-yah!"

"Woah!" Pillow had to jump back to avoid being skewered. Grassy tried again, but Pillow just grabbed his arm and lifted him up. He struggled for a moment, but stopped. "Why, aren't you cute!"

"Let go of me!" Grassy shouted.

"What, so you can stab me?"

"I'm going to win for Basketball!" Grassy started to writhe in her grip again.

"Aww, that's adorable!" Pillow threw him across the ground. He bonked into a tree and sat there, stunned. "But this is no place for children." She raised her button and pressed it.

Just before the laser hit Grassy, TV crashed out of the brush and jumped in front of it. His reflective surface was enough to deflect the laser back to Pillow, deleting her from existence. TV face-planted on the ground and a cannon shot fired.

"TV!" Grassy cried with joy. He tried to hug TV, but his screen (which now had a crack in it from falling) was too big, so Grassy just did his best. They both had huge smiles on their faces. Then Grassy walked over to the button, which was still there, and picked it up. "Grassy will protect this!"

He turned back to TV. "TV, can you find Tennis Ball?"

TV displayed a chart of who was alive on ABNTT. Robot Flower, Basketball, 8-Ball, and Blocky were dead, but Golf Ball and Tennis Ball were alive, and their location read "volcano".

They looked up at one of the mountains, which lava was still flowing from, but more slowly. They glanced back at each other, then trekked off towards it as the sun began to set.

--------------------

Golf Ball, Tennis Ball, and Eggy finally reached the top of the volcano. It had taken them all day, as they needed to make several more breaks, still getting used to their heavier metal bodies, and some of the lava was beginning to harden, which made progress slow. But they made it in the end.

"Finally! I thought we'd never get here," GB complained. She sat down on the rim of the crater and sighed. "We're now safe from most of the other contestants."

"Do you know who's left?" Eggy asked.

"Once we know who died today, I'll have a head count."

"Well, it's almost night time," TB said. "We should see the fallen contestants any minute now."

As if on cue, the sound of Four screeching rang out across the arena. "Hello again, everyone! Tonight's a different night. There's less than 20 of you left, so from now on, I won't be showing who died the previous day, nor will I be showing who has a number of kills. You will still hear cannon shots when someone dies, however. Toodles!"

They sat there in silence for a moment. "Well, that's unfortunate," GB finally said, "but I can still guess who's left. Let's see..." GB thought for a moment. "The only threats I can think of are Stapy and Flower - they're both strong and ruthless - and Puffball, since she can fly. Nobody can survive the lava, though."

TB spoke up. "Dora can!"

"Alright, but Dora's not really a threat."

The volcano suddenly rumbled. A wall of rock jutted up from under the lava and pushed them all into the volcano's crater, which had suddenly been drained of lava. "Aaaaahhhh!!" They all screamed as they fell. The trio hit bottom, which was a circle of rock surrounded by lava deep in the volcano.
