Barf Bag: Hey, guys! What's up?
Donut: Oh, not much. We were just playing some board games.
Bomby: This stinks! I CAN NEVER WIN!!
*Bomby flips the table over*
Donut: There go the last 30 minutes of my life...
Barf Bag: Where are Bracelety and Bottle?
Donut: They quit halfway through to go do... something.
Barf Bag: Oh. I saw them earlier today by the canal, so I think they're doing fine.
Gelatin: Hopefully...
*Bomby leaves* Bomby: Hey, you two!
Bottle: Oh, hey, Bomby! What's up?
Bomby: I was wondering if you would place... a bet with me.
Bracelety: Hold on. A bet? About what?
Bomby: Uh... the announcer coming back right as we speak.
Bottle: How much?
Bomby: Hmm... 50 grand.
Bracelety: We'll do it!
Bomby: Okay, here goes... five... four... three...
*Bottle has a smug expression on her face*
Bomby: Two... one...
Bracelety: We win! Ha, you owe us!
Bomby: Awe, dang it.
*The announcer teleports back out of nowhere, leaving all three of them at shock*
Announcer: Hello, contestants.
Bracelety: Shoot, Bottle, we're in debt!!
Bottle: Don't worry. I transferred the money to Pen.
Bracelety: Huh-
Pen: SERIOUSLY?!
Announcer: Shush, sheesh. It's time for cake at stake.
*Cake at Stake!*
Cheese Orb: Hello, Free Food. Are you guys ready to lose a member?
Foldy: Uh... not really.
Bell: Yeah, I don't feel like doing this today.
*Foldy and Bell get ready to leave*
Announcer: No leaving, contestants.
Marker: Announcer? You're back?
Eraser: Oh, great. We missed you.
Announcer: How thoughtful.
Cheese Orb: Hey, you can't replace me! I'm the...
Announcer: Yeah. You can leave now...
Cheese Orb: Aw.... okay. *Cheese Orb leaves*
Firey: Hey! You could've been nicer to him!
Announcer: Hello, Firey. What are you doing in that cage?
Firey: I got eliminated.
Announcer: Oh, okay. *Firey disappears* Anything else I should know about?
Fanny: Yeah, you have something else! Recover Bubble, and get rid of... this thing!
Cheese Bubble: It's me! Cheese Bubble!
*Bubble pops up* Bubble: Hoi guys!
Announcer: Okay, and for the Cheese Bubble...
*Announcer cuts up the Cheese Bubble into 5 pieces*
Fanny: I didn't tell you to kill him...
Announcer: Anyways, on to Cake at Stake. The prize for this one is a piece of cheese bubble.
Stapy: That's disgusting...
Announcer: Too bad. Stapy and Marker are safe with 0 votes out of the 12 total.
Marker: Oh, phew! *Marker takes a bite of the cheese bubble* Ugh, tastes like eyes.
Stapy: Ok... so who's safe next?
Announcer: Tennis Ball and Foldy. With 1 and 2 votes respectively!
Tennis Ball: Huh. I thought I would get more votes, considering I'm on the wrong team.
Foldy: Wrong team?
Announcer: Now it's down to our final two, Bell and Eraser.
Eraser: I'm in the final two? Huh.
Bell: Oh my gosh! Why am I in the bottom two?
Eraser: So who's the last one safe?
Announcer: It's...
Cheese Orb: Eraser, with 2 votes.
Announcer: Didn't I tell you to leave?
Cheese Orb: Aw... :( *Cheese Orb leaves, for good this time*
Bell: Is it true?!
Announcer: Yeah. Bell, you are eliminated with 7 votes.
Bell: Oh, great. I'm eliminated. The guy who eats dirt for a living isn't out, but I am. I hope you guys know I WAS ONE OF YOUR BEST PLAYERS!
Marker: Hey!
Stapy: Don't worry, Marker. She's just salty.
Bell: SALTY?! I'M THIS TEAM'S BEST PLAYER, AND I'M CONSIDERED SALTY!? AGH, I'm leaving. Disappear me, Announcer.
Announcer: Okay. *Bell disappears*
Tennis Ball: Is it just me, or does it feel a lot quieter now that she's gone...?
Foldy: Yeah...

Eraser: Whatever, this food isn't even good. I'm leaving.
Foldy: H- Yeah. Me too.
*Everyone else is hanging out on the tables. Clock has a conversation with Eggy* Clock: It's surprising how we got this far.
Eggy: What do you mean?
Clock: Well, it always seems like we gain a large number of votes every episode, y'know? And with our team not being the best with challenges, what happens when we lose next?
Eggy: I would rather not think about that... I mean, instead of worrying about losing, why not think about winning?
Clock: I guess that's one way to think about it...
Eggy: Yeah!
Clock: In other words, I wonder what Teardrop's doing?
Eggy: Me, too. You can never know with that little rascal.
*Teardrop is running around the obstacle course leftovers from Episode 3. Leafy walks by*
Leafy: Oh, hey Teardrop! It's been awhile, hasn't it?
*Teardrop doesn't notice*
Leafy: Wow, running across an obstacle course, eh? Nice practice!
*Teardrop looks at Leafy, only giving her a wave before going back to practicing*
Leafy: Thanks... I think I'll go now... *Leafy leaves Teardrop alone*
Announcer: Hello, everyone. Are you guys ready for your next challenge?
Robot Flower: Eh. Not in the mood.
Basketball: Me neither, could you just give us a second?
Announcer: Sure.
Basketball: WOW, that's considerate of y-
Announcer: Boop. Time's up.
Robot Flower: Basketball, you should really just stop trying.
Announcer: The 19th challenge is to fill those containers with 10 gallons of water. The last team to do so loses. Go!
*Iance POV* Ruby: Okay, guys, let's get some water!
Flower: From where?
Ruby: Uhhh... the Goiky canal? That has... some water.
Match: Ugh... brings back bad memories.
Bubble: Come on, guys! Let's go!
*Bubble tries grabbing some water, but it fails*
Bubble: Oh...
Fanny: We need a better way of doing this!
Lightning: Agreed. We won't get any water if we don't think of a plan.
Ruby: Do you have any ideas, Flower?
Flower: Hm... I have one idea.
*Flower looks at Spongy, grinning*
Spongy: Huh?
*Team Ice Cube POV* Donut: Why don't we use Bottle to collect the water? I think it would just be easier if we did that.
Bottle: Good idea, Donut! *Bottle jumps in the water*
Barf Bag: And now to get you out... *Barf Bag pulls Bottle out of the water, using all of her strength*
Bottle: You look like you're tired, heehee!
Barf Bag: I am tired...
Gelatin: Now that we have the water stored in Bottle, how do we get her to the container?
Donut: We could use the ladder we got from episode ten.
Bomby: You still have that?
Bracelety: Well, we can't wait! *Bracelety grabs the ladder, and places it* Come on, Bottle!
Bottle: Okay! *Bottle climbs the ladder, and nearly makes it to the top, but slips* Uh oh!
*Bottle falls on the ground, shattering, causing all of the water stored in her to fly everywhere*
Bracelety: Wow. I, uh... didn't know that would happen...
Bomby: Whatever, let's just recover her.
Gelatin: And fast!
*Free Food POV* Foldy: So, any ideas, guys?
Marker: Can't we just push the container into the water?
Eraser: Huh?
Marker: If we push the container into the water, it will still fill up, and we won't even have to do any work!
Stapy: Huh, I guess we could do that, but...
Tennis Ball: Pushing the container would not be convenient.
Marker: And getting 10 gallons of water is?
Tennis Ball: *sigh* Whatever, I just really didn't feel like doing this today.
*5 minutes of pushing later*
Foldy: Are we done yet?
Advertisement
Stapy: Almost... and... done!
*The container falls into the canal, filling up, but also sinking to the depths of the water*
Stapy: Oh.
Eraser: I mean, we still filled it up, right?
Marker: I guess.
Announcer: Free Food is the first team safe! As a prize, you get this! *Announcer hands Eraser a paper*
*Eraser reads it* Eraser: Announcer's favorite items-
Announcer: Shush. Keep that info to yourself. *Announcer leaves*
Foldy:... Huh. Weird.
*Death PACT POV* Pen: Okay, guys. We need an idea. How do we get the water in?
Black Hole: We could just use Pillow's idea.
Pen: Huh?
Black Hole: Y'know, I suck up the water, out into the container...? I did it that one time....
Remote: Ooh, I think I remember!
Liy: Yeah! You can do it, Black Hole!
*Black Hole sucks up the water, and brings it into the container. He drops around a gallon on Tree, however*
Tree: Seriously? Now I'm all soggy.
Rocky: Bleh! *Rocky barfs on Tree*
Tree: Ugh... Do we have enough?
Remote: It looks like we're just short...
Pen: Don't worry guys, I got this! *Pen spits*
Black Hole: Seriously? You had to do that??
Pen: I mean... we win... right?
Announcer: Correct. Death P.A.C.T is safe at second.
*A Better Name Than That POV- Basketball, Golf Ball, Robot Flower, TV* Golf Ball: Okay, now that we're settled in, I think we need a team meeting!
Basketball: For what?
Golf Ball: Well, since Tennis Ball's gone, I just thought that we would re-assess our team roles?
TV: Mhm. Sure, buddy.
Robot Flower: What's my place?
Golf Ball: Well, first off, I'm the leader.
TV: That's obvious.
Golf Ball: Next, Basketball. You will be my co-leader, until I can get Tennis Ball back. Don't think of it as a promotion, but rather just... a substitute.
Basketball: Yaaaayyyy...
Golf Ball: Blocky, Robot Flower, you guys are my subordinates. You will help with challenges.
Robot Flower: Yay, fun. What about TV?
Golf Ball: He's our task checker. He helps check on people. A very important and not boring job.
TV: (This is boring. I'm gonna go do something else.) *TV grabs the bucket from last challenge and walks off*
Basketball: TV isn't even here... anyways, what about... Snowball?
Golf Ball: We don't count him.
*Snowball hears in the distance* Blocky: Just, stay calm SB. No reason to get mad over Golf Ball.
Snowball: It's kind of hard to when she has such BAD TAKES!
*GB and the rest of ABNTT hear Snowball* Golf Ball: Uhhh.... why don't we do the challenge?
Blocky: The bucket is gone.
Golf Ball: WHAT!?
*The Losers POV* Clock: Hey, the water looks pretty good!
Eggy: I don't think we collected enough though!
Clock: Y- Why not?
Eggy: We aren't at the 10 gallon mark.
Pin: We need to solve this, quick!
Needle: Uh, uh... use Teardrop?
*Teardrop looks disappointed*
Needle: What?
Coiny: Okay, have fun TD! *Coiny throws Teardrop onto the container*
Announcer: The Losers are safe!
Pin: We did it!!
Coiny: Yeah!!
*BEEP POV- Balloony, Leafy* Leafy: Ugh... I miss Firey. He was mean, but... I feel bad, almost.
Balloony: Leafy, Leafy. I lost Rocky, and I got over it fine, too.
Leafy: I don't actually think so...
Balloony: Gh- What do you mean?
Leafy: You've kind of been distant from us since Rocky left. I don't get it?
Balloony: He gave me a lot of joy when he was here... And now that he's gone, I just don't feel very motivated anymore.
Leafy: I can understand. Firey's gone, so I don't feel motivated all that much...
Balloony: We should probably help our team now...
Leafy: Yeah! We can't just leave them. Let's go! *Leafy and Balloony stark walking back*
*Bleh POV* Taco: Got the water, Puffball?
Puffball: Yep! *Puffball dumps out the water from her fur, causing it to fall in the container*
Saw: How much is that, Gaty?
Gaty: Approximately 9.74 gallons.
Lollipop: Alright, we're almost finished.
Taco: Any ideas on HOW to finish?
Lollipop: It's only like a quarter of a gallon, I don't think it would be that hard...
*A sun ray passes through the cloud Lollipop is looking at, melting her*
*The rest of Bleh looks terrified*
Gaty: Uhh... at least I think we have enough gallons now...
Announcer: Correct. Bleh is safe.
Saw: WAIT! Before you go, recover Lollipop.
Announcer: Okay. *Lollipop pops up*
Lollipop: Huh?
*Iance POV* Ruby: Now squeeze out the water in Spongy!
*Everyone squeezes Spongy, causing a flow of water to be dumped into the container*
Lightning: Yes! We're gonna win!
Fanny: Yeah! How does it feel, Spongy?
Spongy: Hehe, it feels like I'm being... squeezed.
Bubble: Well, yeah, but...
Ruby: All done! *Iance drops Spongy into the container, and leaves*
Spongy: GUYS! What about me!
Match: Don't like, worry, Sponge. Take a nap or something.
Flower: So... are we safe?
Announcer: Yep. 3 teams left.
*BEEP POV- Cloudy, Nickel, Woody* Cloudy: I wonder why Balloony would deny my request to be in an alliance. He's a really good friend, so I don't get why he wouldn't accept.
Nickel: Maybe he's going through some hard stuff right now.
Woody: Yeah! Like... Wocky being gone.
Cloudy: I can understand Rocky, but I just... don't get it.
Woody: On the brighwt side, we're alwost done!
Balloony: Hey guys!
Leafy: Sorry we came late.
Woody: Wuh took you guys so long?
Balloony: Oh, nothing. Why don't we finish this up?
Nickel: Okay, sure.
Cloudy: Yeah... *Cloudy pours some water stored in him into the container*
Announcer: BEEP is safe! Now it's down to Team Ice Cube and A Better Name Than That!
Woody: Wuh did it!!! *Woody busts a move*
Announcer: Oh my god not this again... *Announcer disappears*
*Team Ice Cube POV* Bomby: Announcer! Come here!
Donut: Yeah! Recover Bottle!
Announcer: What? Oh, yeah. Okay. *Announcer brings Bottle back*
Bottle: Heehee, I'm back!
Gelatin: Great! Now let's hurry! *Team Ice Cube leaves announcer*
Barf Bag: Guys, we need a game plan!
Donut: Anyone have any ideas?!
Bracelety: I have one!
Donut: Well, tell us!
Bracelety: So we're going to use Bottle and Barf Bag to collect us our water, right?
Donut: Yeah?
Bracelety: Well, Donut and Gelatin will be in charge of collecting, and then they will give their water to Bomby, and he will transport it, since he's the strongest one here!
Bomby: Yeah! But what do you do!?
Bracelety: I'll keep our climbing ladder sturdy, so we don't fall!
Donut: Huh. Good plan, Bracelety!
Gelatin: Well, what are we waiting for? Let's go!
*A Better Name That That POV* Golf Ball: What!? Where is our bucket?! I relied on that to help us win the challenge?!
Basketball: Not my fault it suddenly went missing.
Golf Ball: Don't you understand, Basketball?! We could've won with one filling with that bucket!!
Robot Flower: I highly doubt that.
Blocky: Look Golf Ball, what do we do?
Golf Ball: Hold on, Blocky. I need to talk to someone. *Golf Ball starts walking*
Blocky: Wait, who are you-
Basketball: Don't tell me he's going to talk to Snowball.
Robot Flower: Someone stop him!
Blocky: I will! *Blocky starts running towards Golf Ball*
Snowball: WHAT do YOU want, Golf Ball?!
Golf Ball: It's time you learn your place, Snowflake!
Snowball: Don't even dare to try anything! I will beat you up!
Golf Ball: What are you even doing?! You haven't been helping us at all!
Snowball: I'm not going to help when you're here!
Golf Ball: What is this even about?! Some drama from 12 years ago?!
Snowball: You know exactly what it's about, Golf Ball. You've done nothing but boss people around for the last 100 years, and now I'm TIRED OF IT.
TV: Okay, I got my water. *TV starts walking back* Oh, geez. What if I trip?! I'll sizzle!
Blocky: Guys, guys! Stop fighting!
Robot Flower: Wait... is that... TV? With our bucket?
Basketball: What is he doing?
*TV starts running up towards the container*
Robot Flower: No, it's too dangerous!
Snowball: Huh?
Blocky: TV, wait!
*TV leaps to put the bucket of water in the container, but he barely misses, causing the bucket to spill on him, sizzling him*
Robot Flower: TV, no!
*Team Ice Cube POV* Bracelety: And... done!
Barf Bag: Hey, we did it!
Bottle: Yeah, we did it!
Gelatin: Aw, yeah.
Announcer: Team Ice Cube is the last team safe!
Donut: Wow, we did it! And if it weren't for your awesome plan, Bracelety, we would have lost!
Bracelety: Thanks, guys.
Bomby: No problem! Too bad about the losing team, though. They don't look too happy.
Announcer: Which means A Better Name Than That, loses.
Basketball: Wow, TV is dead. That's great.
Robot Flower: You two couldn't even stop fighting to help your team, huh?
Basketball: I'm going to leave.
Robot Flower: Me too.
*Basketball and Robot Flower leave, with just Blocky, SB, and GB still there*
Blocky: I thought you were better than this, SB. I'm disappointed in you. *Blocky, too, leaves*
Snowball: ...
Golf Ball: ... Why didn't I just-
Snowball: No, no. This was my fault. We both know it. *Snowball leaves*
*Golf Ball is shocked.*

What would you do? This is the exact situation Sally finds herself in. Almost immediately she discovers that nothing is what she thinks it is. Not the boy, not the hospital, maybe not even herself.

Some pertinent info: Ten Thousand Sallys is a complete novel of approximately 140 pages in 20 chapters. Around 80,000 words. not too long, and maybe too short. Give it a read and let me know your opinion.

Crimson Gloom
Crimson Gloom. The time when the moon turns crimson, illuminating the landscape with its crimson glow. The time when the ‘doors’ to the Crimson Abyss open. One shall gaze into the abyss and gain its secrets and powers. Concurrently, the abyss also gazes into oneself, gaining one’s sanity and humanity. Dimensional rifts appeared spontaneously on Earth, bringing otherworldly demons along with the Crimson Gloom. Bloody battles were fought, noble sacrifices were made. Humans eventually sealed the rifts and successfully defended their homeworld. Alas, the seals were not perfect. The Crimson Abyss continued to exist, slowly influencing Earth and its inhabitants. Half a century of relatively uneventful years passed… humanity slowly descended into corruption, and the majority of them knew nothing of the effects of the Crimson Abyss. Is there only the dreadful gloom left to the world? Can one find brightness in the increasingly gloomy world? The youth who had gazed into the Crimson Abyss had no answer, nor did he care. He only wanted the Crimson Gloom to end, to forever seal the Crimson Abyss. A mistake and a twist of fate led the youth into a seemingly totally different direction. Will he forget his lifelong goal? Will he instead step back onto his initial path that he fervently pursued? Disclaimer: I do not own the image on the cover. Image edited on canva.com. This piece of work, after all, is only a first draft and by no means an end product by an amateur (beginner) writer. Mistakes are bound to happen. With that said, I will strive to improve as I write. Feel free to point out errors and inconsistencies as you read. I thank you for your time. Finally, I pledge to not rewrite this novel until the first draft is completed.
