"Welcome back" Lakitu announced. "You are just in time for the challenge. Considering you payed attention last time, you should know what the challenge is. If you don't, shame on you."

"We are now in the air! The competitors have to make their decision on whether they want to jump or not. Remember, if any one of the competitors opts out of the test, the group earns 0 coins."

(!) "The ten competitors were very scared, but knew that if they wanted to pass the test, they needed to jump."

"Okay, I'm going." Luigi announced to the group. They were proud that he stepped up to go first.

"WAHOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!" He screamed, as nine competitors were left on the plane.

Bowser strapped himself in, gathering attention from the group. "AHHHHHHH!!!" He yelled, as he plummeted out of the plane.

The three girls looked at each other. At once, they said, "together?" They nodded, and Out went Peach, Daisy, and Rosalina, screaming with both joy and fear.

Wario and Waluigi were brothers, so they decided to go together. Waluigi accidentally jumped out of the plane before the two were planning to.

Wario laughed, and jumped out right behind him. "I'M COMINGGGGGGG!!!!" Just like that, 3 were left.

The camera left the plane, showing the ground level, which Luigi was about to land on.

"Ahhh!! Ground at last." Luigi breathed a sigh of relief, as he landed in the middle of a grassy plane, as the Toad who had jumped with him unstrapped him.

"Wahoooo!!! Hey, we're finally here!" Bowser told the Toad. He was very happy that he had decided to jump.

"Hello!" Luigi exclaimed.
"Hi" Bowser said. The two talked a bit, then waited for the other competitors. As time passed, Luigi and Bowser lay on the grass, looking at the sky, enjoying the warm day.

"Hey, I think i see someone!" Luigi finally told Bowser.
"I don't think that's just one person" Bowser said, looking up, as the three Princesses touched the ground.

"That was so much fun!" They laughed at each other, as they were unstrapped.

Peach pointed up at the sky and laughed. "Waluigi is upside down!" Everyone laughed.

"Ahhh!!! Help!" Waluigi yelled, as he touched the ground. "I'm gonna throw up! That was crazy!" He said to everyone, as he was unstrapped.

Wario came plummeting out of the sky. It was a late deploy, but his parachute opened eventually. "THIS IS SO SCARYYYYY!!" His yells echoed in the sky. He finally touched the ground.

Once again the camera resumed to the plane.

"Uhhh... well I guess I'm next." Toad was very frightened.

"You can do it!" Donkey Kong motivated Toad.
"Well I guess this is it." Toad sighed.

(!)"I really just didn't know what to do. It was either cost-the-team-seventy-five-coins-day or JUMP!!! Day." Toad explained.

Toad's other teammates on the plane cheered him on.
"Go, Toad! You can do it!" Donkey Kong cheered.
"Go kick butt!" Mario cheered.

"It's time to... GOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!" Toad yelled as his tiny little body flew out of the plane. "AYAYAYAYAYAYAYAYAYAYYAY!!!! WHAT IS THIS?!?!!" A bug had flown into Toad's shoulder. He laughed.

"Well one of us has to go eventually." Donkey Kong said to... no one. Mario had already jumped out.

"I'm way ahead of you!!" Donkey Kong heard Mario's voice.
"Well, I guess it's just me." Donkey King said to himself. "WEEEEEEEE!!!" He screeched. He was the last to jump.

At the ground level, Toad was getting lower to the ground. He saw his friends, who had been cheering for him.

"Yes!! I did it!" Toad exclaimed.
The group did a head count, and realized two competitions- Mario and Donkey Kong- were still missing.
"Did they show signs of fear?" The group asked Toad. He shook his head.

Mario finally reached the ground. The group cheered. Only one more competitors had to jump! Just after Mario's celebration, Daisy noticed a Brown ape floating in the sky.

"DONKEY KONG!!" Everyone yelled, as he reached the ground. The group had cheered loudly because- Everyone had jumped! They completed the test!

Lakitu walked over to the group. "Congratulations guys, you have passed the first test. 75,000 Coins have been added to the group pot!"
The group cheered.

"Anyways, that's all for today. Before we proceed- Journals. These journals will help you because you can write anything in them to help you figure out who the mole is. It is also a big help in the upcoming quiz, because you can look through your journal as you're taking the quiz!" Lakitu handed out the ten journals.

"Now... these helicopters have your bags inside. Go in them, so they can take you to the hotel and you guys can prepare for the next test, tomorrow."

"Ummm... I think I've had enough flight today." Toad joked. The group chuckled.

At the hotel, some competitors took time to write in their journals, while others got a goodnight sleep.

"Join us next time, on, The Mole"
