Tropical, Island of Doom!
Worm: Can you burn things on these islands? *indicates to matches in hand*
Kade: NO! What's the point of that?
Abel: Worm! I'll get you! My hair won't grow back for 5 months!
Worm: *whines* Its not my fault that Kade told me to soak your hair in gasoline before the show!
Kade: WHAT?! *growls menacingly*
Worm: *quivers* I have the right to remain silent!
Abel: *looks at Kade* Well? Should we do it?
Worm: *looks at her with a scared look* Do what?
Kade: *nods* Uh huh. I think we should.
Abel: *pokes Worm* Alright Worm, hand over your matches!
Worm: *looks aghast* What? WHY?!
Kade: Now.
Worm: *mutters to self and pulls pack of matches from pocket*
Abel: All of them Worm! *gives a look*
Worm: *pouts and gives Abel and Kade death glares*
Kade: *points to Abel's outstretched hand*
Worm: *digs in pockets, combat boots, bra, and back pack*
Kade: I know you have more! Now!
Abel: *nods*
Worm: How did you know?! *pulls off sunglasses and pushes two tiny buttons*
Abel: *looks shocked when two matches come out of holes on the frames* Kade: And the lock picks!
Worm: *pouts again* Why me?! Why can't I have any fun?!
Abel: For good reason! Your fun is dangerous!
Worm: *hands over lock picks*
Kade: Knifes! Sword!
Worm: *whines* Do I have to?
Abel: YES!
Worm: *hands over 10 knifes hidden in various places and a sword*
Kade: Thanks you *stuffs weapons in pockets and she and Abel leave*
Worm: *palms hidden dagger and pack of matches* You didn't really think I'd give them all to them did you? *grins evilly*

(A/N- just to clear something up, Alanna, Jon, Gary, Alex, Raoul, George, Thom, Faithful and Roger are from Alanna's first year as a squire, when only Jonathan knew she was a girl. Kel, Neal, Dom and Owen (and since Owen is a year younger he is a page) are from Kel's first year as a squire. Thayet and Buri are from when they first met Alanna. And special guest player(s) Seadragon (better known here as Alan?! is from when she was a squire, ten years after Kel became a knight and is Alanna's squire.)
*The participants come from out of their boats (a different one for each time)*
Alan(na)- *gives the hosts death glares* HEY! You said it would be a TROPICAL Island!
Worm: *smugly* No we didn't we said it would be a Snake Infested, Extremely Demonic, Dastardly Dangerous, Not So Tropical, Island of Doom!
Alan(na): Oh. *looks angry* But I'll freeze!
Kade: Calm down Alannn *looks frantic*
Alan(na): *hisses* Careful! Or else! *grins evilly and points to Lightening*
Keladry: Why are Alanna and I the same age?! Oops. *realizes that if they are the same age, no one knows that Alan is in fact Alanna*
Alanna: YOU! You'll pay! Who are you any ways?
All except Alanna, Faithful, Jonathan, Alan (the other one), Thayet, Buri and everyone from Kel's time: What?!
Alanna: Er, you see, its like this. *launches into long and drawn out explanation*
Raoul: *just sees everyone that is not from his time* Hey! Who are all you people?! Why weren't you surprised that Alan, Alanna, sorry, is a girl?
Kel: I don't know about this guy over here *indicates to Alan* or these two *nods at Thayet and Buri* but WE *points to herself, Neal, Owen, and Dom* are from the future!
Gary: The future? *looks skeptically at her*
Neal: *impatient look* YES the FUTURE! Is it that hard to believe?!
All except those four and Alan: Yes.
Neal: Oh. *looks confused*
Owen: Isn't this just jolly Kel? We are visiting Alanna, and her friends as squires and knights! It's so jolly!
All from Alanna's time including Thayet, Buri and Alan: *back away slowly making the sign for evil*
Kel: Shh Owen, you're scaring them. I'm Squire Keladry of Mindelan.
Neal: I'm Squire Nealan of Queenscove.
Owen: I'm Owen of Jesslaw! I'm a page.
Dom: I'm Domitan of Masbolle, I'm in the King's Own.
Jon: Ok, so we've got you four covered, but what about you two? *points to Thayet and Buri*
Thayet: Umm, I'm Princess Thayet jian Wilima of Sarain. And this is my guard Buriram Tourakom. We were travelling with you, Alanna, before we were brought here. I think we are from five years after you, your highness.
Jon: Right. Did I tell you your beautiful? *gives her a smile*
Alanna: *kicks Jon* Stop it!
Faithful: you forgot someone Alanna, she reminds me of you!
Alanna: She? But there is only one person left, and he is a squire.
Faithful: Fine, don't listen to the cat. You'll learn soon enough anyway.
Alanna: *scowls at Faithful* Fine. Hey you! *points at Alan*
Alan: Yes milady? *bows to the younger version of her knight master*
Alanna: Who are you?
Alan: I'm Squire Alan of Kailani, I'm from 35 years in the future.
Faithful: She lies.
Alanna: What?
Alan: I do not! What would you know? You're a cat!
Faithful: Don't give me that missy! What is your real name?
Alanna: You can understand Faithful?
Alan: Fine, my name is Alanya. I'm a girl, after Keladry became a knight, girls were treated even worse. I have to masquerade as a boy, like you did Lioness.
Keladry: I do become a knight? I pass the ordeal? What am I like then?
Alanya: *shakes her head* I can't tell you.
Thom: What about me?
Alanya: Well I suppose I can tell everyone on my tribe one thing. We will just have to wait and see.
Kade: Excellent! We have perfect timing! Now here are the lists of the two tribes. Tribe 1 get into the purple canoe, Tribe 2, the orange canoe. You will find a map and your materials in the canoe. You need a tribe name by tomorrow for the reward challenge *nails lists to a tree*

All: *get into their respective boats*
________________________________________________________________
The Purple Canoe Tribe:
Alanna: We have the best Tribe ever! Now we just need a name! Right everyone?
All: *look nervous* Yes of course!
Alanna: Good, glad we agree on something! Now what should it be?
Owen: Jolly Time Travelers!
All except Owen: NO!
Owen: *looks hurt*
Alanna: I know! King's Champions!
All except Owen: Ya, that sounds good!
Owen: But that's even worse than mine is! Why did you say no to mine?!
Kel: That's easy. Alanna is a better fighter than you are!
Owen: I guess that makes sense. *looks confused*
________________________________________________________________
Orange Canoe Tribe:
George: Ok! *looks at map* We have to go straight then right.
Neal: Give me that! *steals map* Ah ha! I thought so! We have to go left then straight! You were lying!
George: No I wasn't, you're just reading it upside down! *turns the map*
Neal: Oh *looks sheepish* Ok straight then right. *screams*
Thom: What now?! *looks where Neal is pointing and screams too*
Raoul: For goodness sakes, what is it you two?! *looks where they are both frantically pointing and pales* Oh.
Gary: WILL SOMEONE TELL ME WHAT IS GOING ON!
Raoul: Well you see, we are heading straight into an iceberg, and as none of us has ever been in a canoe before, we don't know how to steer.
Gary: Oh is that all? *looks bored*
Raoul: How can you be so calm?! We are going to die in a couple minutes!
Gary: Well, why doesn't Thom or Roger just blast that bloody thing out of the water?
George: That's a good point. Thom? *looks at Thom*
Thom: Fine, why is it always me! *throws ball of fire at the iceberg and it explodes*
________________________________________________________________
King's Champions:
Alanna: Alright! We're here!
Faithful: You noticed?
Jon: Ok. Thayet, and I will get water. Kel, Dom, and Owen, you build the shelter. Alanna and Alanya, collect food and start a fire.
Thayet: Umm your highness? You might not want to have Alanna cook. She is quite awful at it. *blushes*
Dom: And Keladry is an awful carpenter! *mouths 'sorry' to Kel*
Alanna and Kel: *shrug*
Jon: Alright, Kel will cook and gather food, Alanna will start the fire. Alanya, Dom, and Owen will build the shelter. And Thayet and I will collect water! Happy?
Dom: Well now that you mention it.
Jon: NO! STOP! HALT! BE QUIET! On second thought I really don't care what anyone thinks! *goes very red in the face*
All: *go to do their tasks*
________________________________________________________________
Orange Canoe Tribe:
Thom: Alright, since we have two sorcerers, we should be the Sorcerers' Slaves!
Neal: THREE! *looks very indignant*
Gary: Are you implying the rest of us should be your slaves?
Thom, Roger, and Neal: Yes.
Gary: Oh, ok then.
All except Thom, Roger, Neal and Gary: NO! *very angry*
Thom: Fine. Can any of you non-sorcerers think of a better name? *scowls*
Buri: Actually, probably yes.
Roger: Then what? If you're so smart.
Gary: Umm. *looks sheepish* Raoul?
Raoul: Er. I don't know! George?
George: The Rogue? No. Buri?
Buri: *blushes* I dunno.
Thom: See? We should use our name!
Neal: Since you can't think of any, we use ours!
Roger: Ha ha ha!
________________________________________________________________
King's Champions:
Alanna: So Kel, whose squire are you? *gathers fire wood*
Kel: *collects various foods* Raoul's, he's the Knight Commander of the King's Own!
Alanna: Really? What did he do to deserve that? *snickers*
Kel: *looks hurt*
Alanna: No not you! Being commander of the King's Own! All those pathetic noble men who can't fight! *laughs*
Kel: HEY! Dom is in the Own! Oh. I know what you mean, it's changed. It's actually a weapon of the Crown now.
Alanna: *looks interested* What about me? What happens to me?
Kel: *unsure* well, I'm not sure if I should tell you.
Alanna: *drops fire wood and reaches for Lightening*
Kel: Well, when you put it that way!
Alanna: Good, now what do I do?.
Some where across camp.
Jon: So Thayet. *stares at her*
Thayet: Yes? Alanna has warned me about you!
Jon: *confused* How? She has never even met you! Oh. *realization dawns on him* Right.
Thayet: *sighs* this is going to be a long 40 days.
In the clearing they called home.
Dom: Owen, can you pass me that block of ice?
Owen: Which one? They all look the same to me. *looks confused*
Alanya: I feel sorry for Kel, how did she survive with you, Owen?
Dom: She had Neal to keep her sane, wait a minute?! Did I say Meathead would keep her sane? The cold is getting me! *looks appalled*
Alanya: Meathead? Who is that? *baffled*
Dom: My cousin, Nealan of Queenscove. They were all pages together. *rolls his eyes* I don't know how she did it but I'd like to see if it would work for me too!
Alanya: *laughs*
________________________________________________________________
Sorcerers' Slaves:
George: Where are we going to sleep? *looks around at pitiful campsite consisting of a pile of sticks they hadn't been able to light, a pile of sticks they hadn't been able to make a shelter with, and a pile of sticks, yup you guessed it, a pile of sticks they hadn't been able to make hold water*
Thom: Well, I get the pile of sticks we weren't able to build a shelter with, Neal claimed the pile of sticks we weren't able to light, and Roger wants the pile of sticks we weren't able to make hold water. So I guess you could have that pile of leaves over there. *indicates to a pile of leaves*
George: *stares* Thom, that's a bush!
Thom: Oh.
Buri: *poking the bush* George I think you should come see this!
George: *sighs* what?
Buri: Look! *points behind bush*
George: A CAVE! We don't have to sleep on sticks!
Roger: But what if we want to?
George: That's your problem, *mutters under breath* no wonder Alanna hates you!
Roger: I heard that! I think.
Raoul: Is there enough room for us all? Excluding the strange people sleeping on sticks?
Buri: Ya, I think so, well at least it might fit all of us with our legs hanging out.
Gary: Oh well, that's better that sticks!
Neal: Well excuse me! I like the sticks, the sticks are my friend!
All except Neal, Thom, and Roger who are nodding in understanding: *back away slowly and make the sign to ward of evil*
________________________________________________________________
King's Champions:
Alanna: God. Damn. Matches! *throws match box on the ground*
All excluding Alanna: *gather around*
Alanna: *yell of rage* I'll get you! *throws fire at the pile of twigs and they burst into flame*
Jon: Well I guess Alanna was tired of being cold
Owen: This is a jolly warm fire! *is holding hands in front of roaring purple flames*
Alanna: *smiles smugly at the matches* So there! I didn't need you!
Kel: *scoops up matches before Alanna can blow them up*
Dom: Smart move Kel! *turns red when Alanna glares at him*
Kel: *dumps 'food' into a pot and holds it over the fire*
Dom: *looks into the pot* We're eating grass?!
Kel: *pouts* It's the only thing I could find!
Faithful: Tell the girl with the grass in the pot to empty it, I have REAL food.
Alanna: Kel, Faithful says he has REAL food, so you should dump the grass out!
All except Kel: YAY! REAL FOOD!
Kel: *whines* But it took me all day to collect this grass!
All: TOO BAD!
Kel: *mutters about heartless people and dumps out her pot of specialty grass*
Faithful: Alanna, tell Dom and Owen to follow me!
Alanna: OWEN! DOM! Go with Faithful!
Owen: *mutters* She's jolly bossy!
Dom: Aww shut up!
Five Minutes Later
Dom: Look *pant* we *pant* have fish! *pant*
Kel: You need to get into better shape Dom! *laughs*
Dom: Ya ya, lets see you drag fish through the Arctic!
Kel: *shrugs and throws the fish in the pot*
½ hour later
Dom: That was good! I vote Kel our cook, so long as you don't try to cook anymore grass! *smirks at Kel*
Alanna: As long as it isn't me!
All: Thank goodness! *laugh at Alanna*
Alanna: *pouts* Its not MY fault I can't cook!
All: *climb into their very impressive shelter with walls of ice and evergreen boughs for a roof*

Buri: *poking the bush* George I think you should come see this!
George: *sighs* what?
Buri: Look! *points behind bush*
George: A CAVE! We don't have to sleep on sticks!
Roger: But what if we want to?
George: That's your problem, *mutters under breath* no wonder Alanna hates you!
Roger: I heard that! I think.
Raoul: Is there enough room for us all? Excluding the strange people sleeping on sticks?
Buri: Ya, I think so, well at least it might fit all of us with our legs hanging out.
Gary: Oh well, that's better that sticks!
Neal: Well excuse me! I like the sticks, the sticks are my friend!
All except Neal, Thom, and Roger who are nodding in understanding: *back away slowly and make the sign to ward of evil*

King's Champions:
Alanna: God. Damn. Matches! *throws match box on the ground*
All excluding Alanna: *gather around*
Alanna: *yell of rage* I'll get you! *throws fire at the pile of twigs and they burst into flame*
Jon: Well I guess Alanna was tired of being cold
Owen: This is a jolly warm fire! *is holding hands in front of roaring purple flames*
Alanna: *smiles smugly at the matches* So there! I didn't need you!
Kel: *scoops up matches before Alanna can blow them up*
Dom: Smart move Kel! *turns red when Alanna glares at him*
Kel: *dumps 'food' into a pot and holds it over the fire*
Dom: *looks into the pot* We're eating grass?!
Kel: *pouts* It's the only thing I could find!
Faithful: Tell the girl with the grass in the pot to empty it, I have REAL food.
Alanna: Kel, Faithful says he has REAL food, so you should dump the grass out!
All except Kel: YAY! REAL FOOD!
Kel: *whines* But it took me all day to collect this grass!
All: TOO BAD!
Kel: *mutters about heartless people and dumps out her pot of specialty grass*
Faithful: Alanna, tell Dom and Owen to follow me!
Alanna: OWEN! DOM! Go with Faithful!
Owen: *mutters* She's jolly bossy!
Dom: Aww shut up!
Five Minutes Later
Dom: Look *pant* we *pant* have fish! *pant*
Kel: You need to get into better shape Dom! *laughs*
Dom: Ya ya, lets see you drag fish through the Arctic!
Kel: *shrugs and throws the fish in the pot*
½ hour later
Dom: That was good! I vote Kel our cook, so long as you don't try to cook anymore grass! *smirks at Kel*
Alanna: As long as it isn't me!
All: Thank goodness! *laugh at Alanna*
Alanna: *pouts* Its not MY fault I can't cook!
All: *climb into their very impressive shelter with walls of ice and evergreen boughs for a roof*
