NARRATION:
It was a peaceful sunny morning!
A few years had already passed since that day, everyone's been busy with their own lives in their own homes. We begin this day with a familiar silly guy..
Pineapple: *exasperated groan* I'm booooorreeedd!
He exclaims as he laid sprawled on his couch upside down
Pineapple: Wish there was something to do...
Suddenly, his phone rang wildly on the coffee table
Pineapple: Hm?
He took his phone and checked
It was Jester Hat
All of the contestants have been good friends these days, except for some.. ofcourse <:D
He answered the facetime curiously
Pineapple: Yo sup dude! What's goin on?
*On Call* Jester Hat: Hello there friendo~! What's goin on is that-
Another person took the phone and spokein a frustrated tone
*On Call* Princess Hat: Where are you!???
Pineapple: Woah woah! Chill PH, what's wrong?
*On Call* Princess Hat: What's wrong is that you're NOT here yet!!
*In the bg*
Jester Hat: Calm down Princess Hat, hahaha~!
He chuckles at her urgency
Pineapple: Here? Where?
*On Call* Princess Hat: Oh I don't know- Our 2 year Anniversary!!? You promised to help decorate!
Pineapple: Anniversary? We were never together tho?
He was clueless
*On Call* Princess Hat: ...
OH MY GO-
*On Call* Jester Hat: Apologies about that friendo~
He took over the call
*On Call* Jester Hat: She's just being cranky, you know how much of a perfectionist she is~
You do remember the show's anniversary.. Right?
Pineapple: What show?
*On Call* Jester Hat: Uhm, Clash 2 be Champion?
(Pretend it's March 29th rn lol)
Pineapple: ...
OHHHHH..
He was clueless indeed
*On Call* Jester Hat: Almost everyone's here~!
Well, the one's who said would be here. Service Bell won't be joining us, as usual~
He rolls his eyes with a smirk
Pineapple: Wait, we still celebrate this?
*On Call* Jester Hat: Uhm.. we just did last year...
Buddy, you still okay?
Pineapple: Prolly not
He shrugged as he spoke bluntly
Someone else also took the phone
*On Call* Glitchy: Just come here dude, and fast, before Princess Hat goes apeshit
*faintly heard from the call*
Princess Hat: If this ends up the way like days ago for Season 1- I SWEAR TO-
GRAAAAGGHHH!!
*On Call* Glitchy: Yeah..
Pineapple: Alright, I'm comin'- I'm comin, bro don't worry!
He ends the call
We now go over to where the other's were, they're at the same hotel season 2 took place
The lobby was decorated for the occasion, a big banner on the wall behind the front desk saying 'Happy Anniversary C2BC'. The, what once was 'T', got crossed out and '2' was written at the top of it
All were busy chatting, catching up on each other's lives. And as others prepare the area, a familiar lovable guy came in
Caramel Apple: What is up you guys!! >X3
Apple Fritter: Couz!! >XD
He ran up to him and gave a big hug
Apple Fritter: I missed you dude!
Caramel Apple: Missed ya too couz!
Apple Fritter: How've you been?
He pulls away from the hug as he spoke
Caramel Apple: I've been aight! How about you? How was the visit back home?
Apple Fritter: It was great! Auntie still makes the best empanadas~
Caramel Apple: Told ya bro! Mom's the best >B)
Chip Stack: Bros!! >XO
He suddenly shouted in excitement, as he ran up to Caramel and hugged him tight
Chip Stack: I missed ya'll man!
He lets go of the hug with a smile
Caramel Apple: Me too!
As the trio reunited, they began to excitedly talk about what happened with them these past few months, mostly about Apple Fritter's recent visits
A few moments in, and some more familiar faces entered the lobby
Mirror: Incense! Sleep Mask!
She goes up to the duo, with someone by her side, holding hands
Incense: Hello Mirror, Yearbook, nice to see you guys again! Right Sleep Mask?
Sleep Mask: Yeah yeah, nice...
She spoke tiredly as per usual
Incense: Sleep Mask.. You promised to be a bit more lively~
Sleep Mask: I am... Can't you tell?
She smiles as thrilled as she could
Incense: *soft sigh*
She face palms a bit, smiling slightly
Yearbook: That's the spirit Sleep Mask!
She exclaims enthusiastically
Mirror: Yeah.. Never do that again-
Anyways! Hope this year's a good one
Incense: I hope so too~
Just then, two more characters came in
Speaker: Hey guys
Corky: Hiya!! X3
Yearbook: Oh hey! How ya'll been?
Speaker: It's been fine-
Corky: Jesty-Hatty!!
She had spotted her bestest friend
Jester Hat: *dramatic gasp* Corky-Worky?? Is that YOU?!!
She then ran towards him and jumped him
Corky: I missed ya SOOO much!!!
Jester Hat: Me too!!!
He hugs her tightly and spun around
Speaker: You two literally see each other almost everyday
He says with a slight chuckle
Corky: Almost is not enough!
Jester Hat: That is true~
Speaker: Oh god..
He says in an annoyed tone as the three ladies laugh in amusement, Sleep Mask being unbothered
A few seconds later, Fireball and Pound arrived hand-in-hand, and alongside Boulder
Fireball: Hey guys!
Mirror: Hey, how've you all been?
Pound: All good and dandy over here, me and Fireball finally got a home together!
Incense: My, that's wonderful!
Fireball: It really is~
He smiles gratefully as he puts an arm around Pound
Yearbook: How about you Boulder, any news on your photography?
Boulder: Mhm, I uhm... I got accepted by a studio actually..! Eheheh~
He spoke bashfully, nervously fiddling with his hands
Yearbook: Really? That's awesome! Those lessons I taught served you well, huh?
Boulder: Yeah, all thanks to you Yearbook~!
He smiled wide, thankfully giving her a big hug
Yearbook: You're very much welcome Boulder!
They all catch up on what the other has been doing, laughing and gossiping with each other
As they continue, we then cut to Princess Hat. She paces back and fourth, feeling more anxious with each step
Tape Measure is trying to get her to relax while Glitchy just watches, leaning against a wall with their arms crossed
The three were near the staircase at the lobby somewhere
Tape Measure: Princess Hat, you need to relax.. And who knows, he might come?
Princess Hat: Would he actually?
Tape Measure: Uhm...
She looks away awkwardly
Glitchy: Considering that stubborn fruit slice, and the fact he wasn't even in Season 2.. Yeah- no, probably not
Tape Measure: NOT. HELPING.
Glitchy: Geez.. Just saying!
Tape Measure: Oh my- *groan*
She glared at them, stepping on their foot as they chuckled slightly at her expression
Princess Hat looks down solemnly, the two noticing. Tape Measure steps closer, her expression softening
Tape Measure: Look, why don't you let him be for now and uhm...
Focus on today, hm?
Princess Hat: *sigh* You're right, I'm sorry..
She sits down on the staircase, trying to relax
Princess Hat: ...
I miss him..
Both Tape Measure and Glitchy glanced at each other with their own worried look
Although Princess Hat and Tape Measure had gone through some things, they've now made up and are friends now
Glitchy had also warmed up to Princess Hat, having a neutral friendship with her in a way
Glitchy: We know...
They placed a gentle hand on her shoulder, their voice soft
Tape Measure nods in agreement, then sits down next to her, leaning on her side to comfort as she cries on her shoulder
Let's now go to what one of our main character is up to, shall we?
The trio were at the hallways, where their rooms used to be. Exploring a bit and getting nostalgia
Apple Fritter: Oh the memories! They're flooding in~
Chip Stack: Same here man
Dang, what a show huh?
Caramel Apple: Yup! Tho not gonna lie broskies, I kinda wish it didn't end-
He suddenly stopped in his tracks
Apple Fritter: Same here, even if I got eliminated, I still..-
As Fritter continued with him and Chip still walking down the hall, they haven't noticed that Caramel stopped in his tracks
He was just, staring at a door, a particular door to be exact...
Statuette's old room..
"Caramel Apple, now in the room hallways, ran straight to Statuette's door"
"Caramel Apple: SHIT SHIT SHIT
He tries to open the door but his mouth wouldn't open it properly due to his panic"
"Caramel Apple: FUCK- STATUETTE
After not being able to open the door, he walked back a few steps then-"
"*BAM!*"
"Statuette..?"
"There she lied on the floor, with dark crimson liquid coming out of her mouth.."
"Blood..."
"BLOOD"
"STATUETTE!!"-
...
No..
No No NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO-
Chip Stack: Dude?
Caramel Apple: H-Huh?
He snaps back to reality, calming down a bit
Chip Stack: You good?
He had placed a hand on Caramel's head, worried for him
Caramel Apple: I-.. I'm fine! Hahah~!
Apple Fritter: Are you sure couz?
He became worried as well
Caramel Apple: YEP, I am guys!! Don't worry about me!
He gives them a reassuring smile, hoping to change the subject
Caramel Apple: Let's go back now bros, everyone might be all there already!
He then quickly headed downstairs to the others
The two exchanged confused yet worried looks at each other, but had to shrug it off for now..
Time goes on, and more past contestants arrive, including their host, Vasey! Alongside a certain someone
Pound: Vasey!
He and the others headed towards her
Vasey: Hello everyone! Amazing to see you all again after all this time~
They all chat with Vasey for a while, especially about her new acting career
Then after a while..
Fireball: Wait, I know its weird for me to ask this but, where's Beerkeg?
Vasey: He's not here?
Glitchy: Oh, he said he's busy today, something about his business? I forgot...
So he won't join us this year
Pineapple: Really? bummer man..
He suddenly arrived behind Vasey
Princess Hat: Finally! You're here! What took you so long?!
She went towards him, scolding him a bit in the background. With Tape Measure and Glitchy watching in amusement
As they all continued to talk with Vasey, the person she was with finally became more visible...
Speaker: Hey there Stat, what's up?
He approaches her with a smile
Statuette: Hey Speaker, not much.. just as great as it can be these days, heh...
Caramel Apple: Statuette!!
Statuette: Oh, hey there Ca-
She then got tackled by him, almost tumbling down the floor
Statuette: Gosh- Hahah~
You missed me that much?
Caramel Apple: Duh! Why wouldn't I?
Statuette: We saw each other just yesterday?
Caramel Apple: I-.. STILL
Statuette: *chuckle* You really are something my apple~
She gave him a kiss on the lips
Caramel Apple blushes red, calming down a bit and becoming a bashful mess, sticking next her
Speaker: Sheesh, you two need a room.. Hahaha!
Statuette laughs alongside him, then Caramel follows in suit
Now that they're all as complete as they could, they celebrated the rest of the evening. Full of fun, games, food, and many more
An unforgettable day indeed~!
As the others chat alongside each other, buzzing can be faintly heard
Princess Hat: Oh! Sorry everyone, I gotta take this.. Keep up the fun while I'm gone~!
She leaves the group to a secluded area, noticing it was an unknown number calling
Princess Hat: Who is this?
*beep*
Princess Hat: Hello..?
Hey, uhm... How are you..?
