NINJA SMASH

Angie anxiously awaits her fate on the launch stage, the camera giving you several upwards angles as she hops around, stretching this and that.

"Ok the votes are in," Chuck says. "Angie's first task will be... NINJA SMASH!" One of the doors slides open and the blonde cheerleader runs in as the studio crowd cheers. She proceeds down a hallway which eventually opens up into her first obstacle room. The camera pans out and shows the full stage. Three large ropes are suspended from the ceiling. Between each rope is a barrier of large foam bricks. Below the stage is a large pool of water.

"In this challenge, Angie will have to swing from rope to rope, crashing through the walls to make it safely to the other side," Chuck explains.

"NINJA SMASH!" Randy gleefully shouts. "Tell them about the water, Chuck."

"Of course, Randy. As with all of our courses, if you touch the water below, you fail the course."

"That's not what I mean, Chuck. Tell them about the water!"

"Haha Patience, Randy. All of our water hazards here at NNW are filled with H2Oh! -Turn your pool party into an oooh party with H2Oh! natural aphrodisiac water."

"Man I tell you what, that fancy water is the shit. Remember the office Christmas party last year? I was poppin-"

"It looks like Angie is about to take her leap into the arena." The camera zooms back in as the cheerleader gets into a half squat stance before she leaps off the platform to grab the first rope. She lands halfway up the rope, missing with her attempt to hold onto the thick rope with her hands, but she is able to hug her arms and legs around the rope, stopping her descent after a short slide.

"Ouch that's going to leave a burn," Randy chimes in. "Speaking of burning sensations, remember the Christmas party last year, Chuck?"

"Yes Angie was lucky to save that one," Chuck says, halfway ignoring his partner. "Unfortunately for her, she lost all her forward momentum." As he says this, she seems to have gotten her bearings and she begins kicking her legs. Her rope swing starts swaying back and forth until she is just up to the first wall. With a grunt she gives the wall a kick.

"SMASH!" screams Randy as a cheerleader-sized hole is punched through the first barrier, foam bricks scattering into the water. The thin blonde has to swing a few more times to gain more distance, but eventually she is just able to reach out and transfer to the next rope. This time it goes more smoothly and she is able to keep enough momentum to run into the next wall. "SMASH HAHAHAHA!" a hysterical Randy gets a little too excited.

"And Angie cleanly transitions to the second rope and into the second wall. Excellent technique with her legs as she makes the most of her light frame." The camera zooms on said legs for emphasis, giving a great view from underneath as she kicks forward and backward with the rope trapped between her legs. A few more swings and she reaches out, ready to grab the third and final rope. "She's done it! Safely onto the third rope. After a rocky start, Angie is looking like a pro out there."

"Do you think they have professional swinging leagues? I'd watch that."

"I don't know Randy, but with 1,438 channels owned by our parent network, I would not be surprised if there's one out there." Meanwhile Angie gets ready to fling herself off the rope onto the finishing platform. "And the dismount." She lets go and jumps into the air, but misjudges the distance. "Oh no!" Chuck shouts. Angie waves her arms desperately trying to gain any distance toward the platform, but she's going to come up a little short.

"SPLASH--huh?" For once Randy is left speechless and a collective gasp emanates from the audience. The cheerleader taps into her training, landing a foot on one of the floating bricks that used to be part of one of the walls. She springs off of that into a forward flip, stretching out full length and grasping the edge of the platform with her hands. There's just enough momentum that she's able to pull her body up and over, completing the flip and landing her safely on the finish platform. "THAT WAS AMAZING!!!" The crowd goes wild as Angie sits up with a grin on her face.

"Wow just when you think you've seen it all," Chuck says as a slow mo replay is called up. "Look here as she quickly spots her landing on the brick and pops right off it before it can sink farther enough to disqualify her. Incredible balance and agility."

"Holy shit, Chuck! I thought we had ourselves a soaking wet cheerleader."

"Maybe we still will, but I wouldn't bet against this young lady after a performance like that. With the completion of stage one, it's time for you at home to vote again on what our next challenge will be. Your 30 seconds starts... now!"
