Re: User Big Brother II - Week 8
All the houseguests walk outside to find this strange rotating machine, where players stand on a platform. Three bars are projecting out, each one higher than the other. The green bar the lowest, the red bar the middle, and the blue the highest. They each stand on a platform as the host begins to speak.
"Alright houseguests, welcome to Raising the Bar! In this Head of Household competition, you will need to avoid the obstacles of the bar as they swing around. They all don't move at the same time, and they stop and go at will. Good luck timing them!
"The last person standing wins! You may begin now!"
The first five minutes were used up for talking. As soon as the second set of five minutes begin, the bars start to slowly spin, picking up speed gradually.
Before anything could really happen, Goomba's Shoe immediately leaped off the machine, dropping down onto the cushioned landing.
Host: "Goomba's Shoe, you are out!"
GS: "I'm safe, so no troubles."
Half an hour goes by before anything really interesting happens. Hail and rain and wind start pletting the players as the machine slowly spins. While they were all fine before, they are now starting to drain. It doesn't seem much longer before another person falls.
It's almost near the hour mark, and New Super Mario started going through the motions. He failed the avoid the High Bar when it swung around, and it swung around again, then again, and one last time. That final time, his leg got caught, and he was dragged off the platform with it at only 49 minutes in.
Smasher: "New Super Mario, you are out!"
It's only a few minutes later, and all three of them appear to be drained. Lily is trying to really focus, but is having trouble. Quizmo is doing the same stragety as last time, but it's not as effective as he had hoped. Both are managing, but are pretty deep out of breath.
FireEevee, on the other hand, seems to be having fun. He starts to becoming more energized, leaping carelessly over the bars. The low beam is coming, and he lethargically leaps over it. His foot tripped up by it, and he fell flat on his face. He starts to slide off from the slippery platform, trying to scoot back on.
Quizmo is tripped up from the same bar, and starts to wobble. However, Quizmo manages better as FireEevee falls onto the cushion.
Smasher: "FireEevee, you have fallen, and so you are out."
FE: "*BLEEP*"
Quizmo tries to regain his balance, but as the next bar comes towards him, it whacks him, causing him to fly off the platform onto the ground. It takes a minute for Lily to realize that she's the only one remaining on the platform, finally hopping off.
Smasher: "Quizmo, you are out. Lily, you were the last one off, making you the winner and the new Head of Houseguest."
Lily scrieks at the top of her lungs, excited. She runs excitely, teary with joy. Smasher happily hands her the key, who in return gives him a hug.
Smasher: "Now come on, it's cold out here."
??? strikes potentially again, next!
