"Keep holding it, don't release it." - his friend was turning purple as he held his breath.

Pow! - The man punched his friend's stomach with all his strength. His friend puffed all his lungs and passed out.

"Ha, ha, ha! That's a good one!" - The rest of the table laughed and they stood up to watch from atop the bio-dome. Their friend twitched on the floor.

From the VIP room, they could see the players in different screens and their progress: Arnold and Amy where fighting with fiends in different areas, Arnold bare handed and Amy shooting them down; Tyrone was jumping on top of crocodile heads to cross the swamp, Sasuke was blending in the environment inside a maze to avoid getting caught by wandering Centaurs, and, "WTF is going on in Baldemar's live stream!?" - Called out a commentator.

Inside the bio-dome, a big spiked ball could be seen floating in the middle of the swamp. It was the puffer fish which had swallowed Baldemar along with the terror birds. It's size continued growing and its body was convulsing while spinning around the water and growling in pain. Bio-GoNoob cams, as well as, Baldemar's shoulder cam displayed the action inside the beast on the stadium screens from different angles.

The audience turned euphoric when it saw Baldemar and the bird going berserk inside the fish. Opposing sides of the stadium were chanting; one half cheered, "Baldemar! Baldemar!", the other rooted, "Go Puffy! Go Puffy!"

Puffy started spinning upside down and back up, Baldemar and the bird could be seen on the GoNoob cameras running on the floor, walls, and roof of the stomach-chamber like a hamster on its wheel. The puffer propelled itself at whole speed to a nearby cliff; hitting it with its forehead. The spikes on puffy became unpredictable, they extended to longer sizes or retrieved back to a smaller size. Some nearby Goliath Tiger-fish were stung by the spikes and appeared floating death on the swamp.

On the opposite side of the VIP and commentators' room was an interior balcony with view to the bio-dome. The 5 bosses were in the balcony standing up while looking at the game and having a conversation:

"Well, you don't see this every year."

"This is just what we needed! Innovation!"

"But this young man. Where did you find him?"

"He came to us. He was playing poker. In any case, We are unsure about it, and assessed our risk-reward odds fairly."

"Regardless of the result, you have surpassed my expectations and the audience is excited as well!"

"Even if something happened, the odds are not in his favor." - The casino pit-boss concluded as he walked back and sat on his throne. 4 other thrones were lined up as well for the rest of the bosses. Behind the thrones, body guards were standing seriously, holding their arms backwards, and wearing sunglasses and suits. A hostess brought a double malt cup of whiskey to the boss; which he sipped and then made a small smirk.

"And puffer is going insane!" - announced a commentator as puffer continued injuring itself against the cliff. The cliff pounding was so strong and it caused a section of the cliff to fall…hitting puffy! Puffy's eyes were increasing in size, protruding their veins.

"My body is ready!!!" - an spectator jumped on a table and removed its shirt. The rest of the audience continued cheering for their favorite in the bubble skirmish. Puffy stopped moving and remained at the same size. The audience was quiet; creating a suspenseful aura around the stadium...

…BOOM!!! - In a split second puffy expanded beyond it's limit and exploded; splashing blood and launching spikes! Many body guards patrolled various sections of the stadium, they pulled bullet proof shields and swiftly covered audience members and the bosses; unfortunately, the explosion was so sudden and some members in the audience were not guarded.

After the explosion, the guards let go of the shields and rushed towards the victims; one of them pulled a radio and called a medic. The audience looked at the members that were left severely injured or death. The medics arrived and injected antidotes to the victims. They began to lay them on wheeled stretchers as they believed the antidote was only a temporary pain relief against the puffer fish deadly toxic spikes; however…

A person believed to be death with a spike which had penetrated its head stood up and yelled, "$h!t, did you see that?!?! That was intense!! I'm fine everyone!". More unconscious people started recovering after they received the antidote, "I told you my body was ready!!".

A doctor explained to a person that he looked really bad and might need additional care as he was impacted by 4 spikes: on his head, neck, shoulder, and ribs. "@#%$ that! Treat me on the spot. This is a once a year event! And the hype is so real!". 

The rest of the audience yelled in joy as everyone seemed, "alright". The song, Zombie Nation was replaying and the whole stadium joined the chorus back in excitement.

The commentators stood up, they had hid under their desk during the explosion, "Well, now you can go tell your friends about The Big Game. It was so intense that people almost @#$%% died!" - They laughed out loud.
