(Papi Tribe)
The remaining Papi members walked back to their camp silent on the way there.
"We voted off Caroline tonight. No big surprise there. I mean I admitted I did felt bad writing down her name but we had to." Helen frowned. "She only talked to us when she knew she was going to be voted off. Sorry but you have to cooperate with your tribemates to get far."
After everyone had returned to their camp, they put their torches next to the shelter.
"Well, I am glad that's over with." Stinky said before stretching his arms. "I'm beat. I am hitting the shelter."
Helen smirked. "You must be really tired to sleep under a death trap."
"Oh, hardy-har-har." Stinky remarked before going into the shelter.
"For some reason, Caroline and Amanda targeted me tonight. I guess Amanda is still miffed at me for what I said about making a fire. Then again, she is STILL mad at Wally for what happened three days ago." Stinky mused. "That woman needs to control her emotions or else she would pay dearly for it."
"Come on. We better go to bed too." Stewart remarked.
Everyone nodded before making them way into the shelter one by one until the only ones who haven't gone in was Vincent, Wally and Amanda. The former two were about to go in.
"Um, Vincent?"
The fox and Wally froze before turning around to see Amanda clutching her hands in a nervous manner.
"My new friend out here got taken out. I can't believe it. Caroline had far more potential than that stinker." Amanda said sadly. "What makes things more worse for me was that I was the ONLY person who voted with her. Now, I have to make sure that I am not the outsider."
"Listen, am I... next?" The nurse asked slowly. "You know for not voting with the tribe?"
Vincent's eyes widened at this. "What? No! Of course not! You are one of our stronger players!"
"Really?" Amanda asked.
"Yeah. We only voted off Caroline not because she isolated herself from the tribe but also because she was one of our weaker players." Vincent nodded before smiling. "Don't worry, you are safe for a while."
Amanda couldn't help but sigh in relief.
"I hold no malice against Amanda for not voting with the tribe. After all, she was trying to protect her friend and I respect that." Vincent said before frowning. "She has no reason to feel like an outsider."
"I apologize for voting out Caroline but I felt Stinky was stronger." The aristocrat explained.
Amanda slowly nodded. "I guess..."
"Listen, let's just bury the hatchet." Vincent explained.
Amanda let out a small sigh as she nodded. "All right."
Wally then grinned and he walked over to Amanda and put his arms around her shoulder.
"Seeing that ya are burying the hatchet, let's bury the hatchet between us as well, eh?" He said snidely.
"Don't touch me." Amanda said without looking up.
Wally immediately retreated his arm back. With that, Amanda brushed past the stunned marsupial so she could go into the shelter to sleep for the night without a single word. Vincent looked at the still shocked kangaroo before shaking his head and putting a hand on his shoulder.
"Ah just don't know what is up with that sheila. No matter how hard Ah try, Ah just can't've a nice conversation with her." Wally said before he paused. "Is it because Ah kept saying the wrong things? All Ah said was Ah love ta go on a date with her."
(Day 4, Mano Tribe)
All ten members of the Mano tribe, including Allison were sitting around the fire pit. Red had the flint and the Machete and was trying to make a fire.
"We won flint last night. Which is good because we really needed fire." Peter explained. "When we tried to see who could make i, Red came out of nowhere and volunteered to make it. But..."
Red looked like he was having trouble trying to make fire as he slammed the Machete against the flint for the fiftieth time.
"Aw, come on, you overgrown goat!" Bryan said. "You are from the fiery realm of Hades and you can't make a single fire?"
The demon glared up at the shorter cop. "Shut up! I can do this!"
"When? When it is Day 39?" Peter said crossing his arms.
"Hey!"
"I knew that if I made fire, I would get a lot of respect from my not-so-respectful tribemates." Red said with a sigh. "However, I didn't do too well. I mean, I can make fire from my hand but I can't make it by clicking a Machete and flint together."
"I think you are doing it wrong." Becky piped up. "You seemed to be doing it from a different angle like the previous firestarters."
"Yeah and not only that but the way you are doing it, you are going to cut your hand." Tea nodded.
"Being corrected by two little girls about making fire." Bryan sneered. "Now THAT'S humiliating!"
Red's eyebrow twitched at Bryan before he glared at Becky and Tea.
"All right, you two are so smart, why don't YOU do it!" The large man growled before holding out the flint and Machete to the two surprising them.
Becky and Tea looked at each other with unsure looks before looking back at Red.
"Um, okay..." Becky said before she slowly took the flint and the Machete. "But you and everyone else have to supervise me."
"Don't worry, we will. Just be careful not to cut yourself, okay?" Franklin said.
Becky slowly nodded before taking a deep breath. Red crossed his arms with an unamused look on his face. Becky clicked the Machete against the flint being careful not to hurt herself on her hand as well. Everyone looked intently.
Suddenly, after ten clicks, a spark appeared from the Machete jumping into the fire pit. It then created a small flame much to everyone's surprise. Especially Red's.
Becky's eyes widened before she smiled. She then laid down and started to blow on the fire with loud huffs trying to make the flame bigger. After a moment, a fire appeared on the pit. Everyone looked shocked before they cheered.
"Well done, Becky!" Tigerlily said clapping.
"Yes, very excellent indeed!" Franklin grinned.
"I must admit, you surprised me a good lot." Schokolade nodded crossing her arms.
"Wow, I never made a fire by myself before and yet I did it on my first try! And I feel great!" Becky smiled. "Not only was I the one who started fire for my tribe but everyone will see me as an asset and keep me around for a while."
Red looked around at everyone praised the green-clad girl with a stunned look on his face. Bryan saw this and couldn't help but smirk.
"Yeah, Red! Maybe this kid could give you lessons!" Bryan said. "No, seriously. You need them."
"SHUT UP!" The demon shouted before he got up and stormed off.
However, as he did so, he hang his head down.
"Great. Now thanks to that little brat, everyone loves her and thinks that I am a bigger joke than before." Red sighed rubbing his temples. "Bryan is NEVER going to let me hear the end of this."
Bryan laughed hysterically as he held his forehead. "I still can't believe it! Red got shown up by a girl scout! That confirms it! He is a total loser who fails at life!"
"Um, is he okay?" Allison asked.
"Other than a badly-bruised ego, no. He's fine." Tea said with a smirk.
"Screw him. What about we celebrate?" Peter grinned.
Everyone quickly agreed. Except for Schokolade who glared at the retreating Red.
"Red... Is borderline useless at camp. Yes, he is a very strong lifter but honestly, being unable to make fire when a young girl can do it?" Schokolade asked. "I am not saying that he isn't an asset to our tribe. But without his muscle, he might as well be a liability."
(Papi Tribe)
Vincent and Wally were walking along the beach together.
"So that was Ah gave one final punch and POW! That guy was on the mat seeing stars!" Wally said with a grin.
"Very well-fought match, Wally." Vincent smiled.
"Thanks, mate. Though, Ah can't take full credit." The kangaroo shrugged. "It was the Disco Kid's fault fer stopping the fight ta dance. Every. Five. Seconds."
"I suppose. I could easily see why he is still in the Minor Circuit." Vincent shrugged. "Oh, Wally?"
The boxer raised an eyebrow. "Yeah, Vin?"
"What do you say you and I get into an alliance?" The brown-furred man asked
"An alliance?" Wally said surprised.
Vincent nodded a couple of times.
Wally raised his eyebrow but then smirked.
"Aren't we already in one?"
Vincent couldn't help but chuckle.
"The first rule of Survivor is to get into a good alliance. Picking your allies is very important if you want to go far." Vincent said. "I decided to align with Wally because he is my best friend out here."
"So who else do you think we should align with?" Wally asked with his hands behind his head.
Vincent let out a small sigh. "That's the problem. I don't know. You are my only clear choice."
Wally raised an eyebrow at this. "Really? How come? What's wrong with the others?"
"Well, first of all, let's look at our oldest tribemates, Stewart and Helen." Vincent said
"Ah am not really too surprised that ya don't want ta align with them." Wally shrugged. "They are nice but weak."
"I want to keep them both longer to see if that could be potential assets to the tribe." Vincent explained. "However, until then, I am afraid I can't align with them right now."
"What about Greg? He is easily the strongest person on our tribe." Wally said.
"That was exactly the reason why I decided not to include him." Vincent explained.
Wally blinked twice. "Say what?"
"Well, think about it. I am not saying that we should get rid of him early on." Vincent said. "But we SHOULD get rid of him when we are closing in to the merge. If he makes merge, he would most likely go Colby on everyone."
"Well, since ya put it like THAT." Wally said scratching his head. "Ah take it fer obvious reasons why ya didn't wanted to align with Stinky?"
"Yes." Vincent sighed. "Stinky's a decently strong player and does his fair share of work but his negativity would put a damper on our tribe."
"What about Dorm, then? Ah don't see any reasons why we shouldn't align with her." Wally asked.
"Because Allison is most likely the next boot." Vincent explained.
Wally blinked twice. "Eh?"
"Have you notice that Dormie and Allison keep getting closer to each other every day?" Vincent asked.
"Yeah. This is the only time Ah seen either of them apart fer obvious reasons." Wally nodded.
"Yes. We need to get rid of Allison early on." Vincent said. "I mean I like her but her performance at the Challenge was very poor."
"But if Dormie aligns with us, she most likely wanted us to align with Allison as well." Wally said crossing his arms.
"Yes. I doubt we will be able to get her to betray her friend." Vincent sighed.
"The problem with trying to start an alliance is that most of the potential allies have a flaw to hinder your progress in the game." Vincent sighed. "I know Wally and I have to choose allies sooner or later but as of right now, my mind is blank. Don't worry though. I will make my decision after observing my tribe for a while."
"Ah guess that just leaves Amanda, then." Wally said.
Vincent just stared at his friend for a moment. The only sounds that could be heard where the waves of the ocean.
"You are jesting, right?" Vincent asked in disbelief.
Wally raised his eyebrow. "Why? What's wrong?"
"Wally, Amanda dislikes you." Vincent pointed out. "She would never align with us."
The tan-furred man crossed his arms appalled by this comment. "Oy! That's quitter talk! Ah just need ta get on Amanda's good side. That's all."
"But you been trying to do that since Day 1." Vincent noted.
"Oy! It's not mah fault!" Wally insisted.
Vincent's ears dropped as he shook his head. "I hate to play the blame game here but technically it was... I mean, that comment you said back on the dock WAS perfect insensitive."
Wally's ears drooped before he looked down at the ground. Vincent put a comforting hand on his shoulder.
"Don't worry, if you let her cool off for a while, she will talk to you. Hopefully." Vincent reassured.
"A-Aye." Wally said.
"All right. Ah admit it. Ah am not the smoothest talker around but Ah don't think anyone could hold on to a grudge forever." Wally explained. He then paused. "Then again, there was nobody like Don Flamenco. Ah mean, come on! How was Ah supposed to know that Carmen was his girl?"
(Day 5, Mano Tribe)
All of the Mano tribemates were up and either walking around, talking to each other or doing chores. Karen and Allison were sitting on a log watching everyone.
Allison looked at Karen who was simply minding her own business. The pink girl bit her lip wondering what she should start a conversation with her.
"Everyone were out doing their own thing and Karen and I were the only ones sitting aside." Allison said. "I know I am not the best at starting conversations but I decided to do so anyway seeing we were sitting on the same spot."
"Um, Karen?" The alligator asked.
The yellow-clad girl quickly turned her head to her. "What do you want?"
"Um, I wanted to know what it is like in your node." Allison explained.
Karen huffed before turning away. "Why should I tell you a commoner like YOU?"
Allison winced at this. However, she recovered herself.
"But... Isn't nearly everyone in this game a "commoner"?"
Karen's eyes widened before she turned to Allison with a fierce glare.
"How dare you back-talk me!" She growled making the alligator jump in her seat.
"I wasn't back-talking! I was just..." Allison insisted.
"Stepping out of line of class!" Karen snapped. "I am a well-bred daughter of one of the biggest multi-millionaires in my node and you are just a low-class sewer-dweller!"
Allison inched away from the aristocrat shaking in fear.
"S-Sorry, I..." Allison started.
"And another thing, you are our hostage so you shouldn't talk with us!" Karen growled. "Also..."
"All right. That is enough."
Karen and Allison both turned to see Tigerlily walking over not looking amused.
"Karen, Allison was trying to be friendly." Tigerlily said putting her hands on her hips.
The young woman scoffed as she looked to the side. "Well, I don't care. I don't need the company of her. I KNOW I am above her!"
Allison looked at the ground. Tigerlily saw this and growl.
"I swear, I despise everyone here. There are all commoners and ugly ones at that!" Karen said in despair. "What is worse. None of them know their place and proceeded to give me lip! What cheek! Oh, and I hate this place too."
"Attention, fellow tribemates!"
The three girls along with everyone else turned to see Franklin marching into sight holding a letter in the air with Becky following him imitating exactly what he was doing.
"We got treemail!" Franklin announced proudly.
"Sweet! Challenge Time!" Red said punching his fist into his palm. "What we got?"
Franklin proceeded to read the letter. "Are you getting used to jungle instincts?"
"I so got this.. After all, nearly most of my node is made of jungle." Tea smirked.
"Careful, everyone. You never know with vague notes like these." Schokolade warned.
"Yeah, yeah, yeah." Bryan said sticking his finger in his ear.
Everyone started to excitedly talk about the Challenge. Tigerlily smiled and nodded. She then looked down. The tigress frowned when she saw Allison looking down at the ground.
"Are you okay, girl?" She asked.
Allison instantly jerked up to attention. "Um, yes. Um, thanks for asking."
Tigerlily sighed as she shook her head.
"The sooner Allison gets back to her tribe, the better. Not to say I don't enjoy her company but it was so her own good." Tigerlily said. "I don't think she could take one more minute with jerks like Karen here."
(Reward Challenge)
The Mano tribe along with Allison walked onto their mat.
"All right, Allison may rejoin her tribe." Tiny said.
The teenager nodded before making her way over to her tribe mat.
"Ugh... Finally." Karen scoffed.
"One less mouth to feed." Bryan grinned.
Everyone glared as the two as Allison tried her best to ignore it.
"We now bring in the Papi tribe." Tiny said letting the other tribe come in. "Caroline voted off at the last Tribal Council."
"Um, hey, guys..." Allison said sheepishly knowing that her absence was the reason Caroline was gone.
"Allie!" Dormie smiled before hugging the younger anthro girl.
"Now, shall we get to today's Immunity Challenge?" Tiny asked. Everyone nodded. "All right, then. Take a look behind me."
Everyone did what to the host said. They then noticed something over to the ocean. A curved platform standing high over the water. On one end was a rope attached to a high bar. Standing a good distance away from a large circular platform with two slightly smaller platforms on top of it.
"We decided to borrow one of the events from the game "Wipeout" but only we add a little twist." Tiny said. "One by one, your tribe will run on the curved platform trying to land on the circular platform. The top platform is worth 100 points. The middle one is worth 50 and the bottom is worth 25. However, since the water is about the same level as the bottom platform, it will cost 25 points if you land in the water. Whoever has the highest combined score wins Reward."
Everyone looked at each other with painful winces.
"Don't worry, we tested it and it should be safe." Tiny reassured. "And if THAT doesn't help give you confidence, maybe this will. You will be playing for fishing gear. A fishing rod, a net, scuba gear and a harpoon."
Everyone looked at each other again only with small smiles knowing it was a prize worth playing for.
"All right, I will flip a coin to see who gets to go first." Tiny said before tossing in the air. "Call it, Papi tribe."
"Tails!" Wally shouted.
Tiny slapped the coin onto his palm and inspected it. "It's Tails. The Papi tribe goes first. But before that, Mano, you got one extra member. Who are you sitting out?"
"Tea." Schokolade said.
"All right. Tea is sitting out." Tiny said. "The Papi tribe may now go to the platform."
(Later)
The Mano tribe watched as the Papi tribe stood on the platform. They were nervously eyeing the rope and the platform tower.
"Give me the rope. I will go first." Vincent said grabbing the rope first.
Vincent breathed in and out a few times before readying himself. He then ran to the end of the ramp, jumped off and swung on the rope. He went in an arc position before heading towards the tower of platforms.
When he felt go of the rope, he landed on the top platform. However, he then showed everyone how slippery it was by sliding and falling on his side on the middle platform.
Papi: 50 Mano: 0
The Papi cheer loudly as Vincent made his way off the platform and back to the shore.
"All right! I am next!" Amanda said.
With that, the nurse grabbed the rope and jumped off the ramp with a mighty leap. However, her landing was a tad poor as she ended up sliding onto the middle platform like Vincent
Papi: 100 Mano 0
Greg eyed Amanda swimming off before shrugging and decided to go next. However, the rope couldn't take his large size on the turn and he fell straight into the water.
Papi: 125 Mano: 0
"Mah turn!" Wally smirked.
He wasted no time jumping off the ramp. Once he did, he let out a loud Tarzan-like yell swinging from the rope towards the platforms. He dropped the rope as he landed on the middle platform.
Papi: 175 Mano: 0
"Well, might as well go too!" Helen said taking the rope.
She then narrowed her eyes before swinging on the rope. However, her grip wasn't very good as she fell off splashing straight into the water.
Papi: 200 Mano: 0
"Ooh, my turn! My turn!" Dormie yelled taking the hope.
She wasted no time swinging hard towards the platforms. However, she dropped the rope too early and ending up landing on the middle platform instead.
Papi: 250 Mano: 0
"I might as well go next." Stewart said with a sigh. "We all have to do it eventually."
Taking a deep breath to ready himself, he let go of the rope. He then jumped off. However, his grip wasn't hard enough as he fell into the water as well.
Papi: 275 Mano: 0
"Might as well go next." The mechanic sighed.
Narrowing his eyes, he ran down the ramp and wasting no time jumping off. He rode the vine until he landed on the platform sliding until he landed on the middle platform.
Papi: 325 Mano: 0
Allison gulped nervously knowing she was the last one to go. After she got herself ready, she slowly ran down the ramp being careful not to trip and jumped off. Only to fall straight into the water.
Papi: 350 Mano: 0
"All right! The Papi tribe's combined score is now 350 points. If the Mano tribe could beat it, they would win Reward!" Tiny said. "Mano, you may now go to the platform."
(Later)
The Papi tribe along with Tea watched as the Mano tribe stood on the platform ready to begin their turn.
"Remember, to win, you need to get more than 350 points." Tiny said. "The first person may now go."
Peter then let out a small sigh. "I suppose I better do it."
The winged demon then took the rope. Nodding to himself, he ran down the ramp and swung from the rope. Once he reached the platforms, he let go on the rope and landed on the middle one.
Papi: 350 Mano: 50
Franklin narrowed his eyes in determination before grabbing the rope and jumping off.
"FOR MANO!"
He then let go of the rope and unfortunately slammed into the top platform knocking the wind out of him and sliding down on the middle one.
Papi: 350 Mano: 100
Becky blinked twice before sighing. "Well, might as well try myself."
She wasted no time jumping off the ramp. She actually had a good grip on the rope and hang on until she reached the platforms. She let go landing on the top platform. However, she ended up sliding straight into the water due to small stature.
Papi: 350: Mano: 125
"Stand aside, amateurs!" Bryan said arrogantly.
He then jumped off the ramp and swung towards the platforms. He let go but couldn't stop himself from landing on the middle platform.
Papi: 350 Mano: 175
Red narrowed his eyes in hatred. "If that hotshot could do it, so can I."
He wasted no time running down the ramp with a confident look on his face. He then swung from the rope. Only to drop it at the turn and fell straight into the water.
Papi: 350 Mano: 200
Tigerlily shook her head in hopelessness as she stepped forward. "I'll guess I am next."
Breathing in and out a few times to ready herself, she slowly ran before jumping off and swinging from the rope towards the platforms. She let go and manage to land on the middle one.
Papi: 350 Mano: 250
Tom gulped nervously "Um, I'll go?"
The man breathed in and out a couple of times knowing that he needed to score more points. He then jumped off. However, as he did so, he let go of the rope and fell into the water.
Papi: 350 Mano: 275
Schokolade and Karen stared at each other knowing that they were the only Mano members left. Karen stepped back knowing that Schokolade wanted her to go next. She then growled before taking the rope and jumping. Over to let go of the rope and fall straight into the water.
Papi: 350 Mano: 300
Schokolade crossed her arms unimpressed with the retreating teen.
"All right. Schokolade is the last Mano member to go. If she gets on the top platform, she will lose her tribe the Challenge." Tiny explained. "If she lands on the middle one, we will go into a tiebreaker. But if she falls on the bottom one or into the water, the Challenge goes to Papi."
Schokolade then pulled the rope back. She then eyed the platforms. Everyone looked in awe knowing that the entire game relies on this swing. She then nodded to herself getting ready for the run. She rushed forward down the platform and jumped off it swinging all the way towards the platforms. Both tribes knew this was it.
Schokolade let go of the rope and landed on the top platform putting her hands and feet on the platform. Surprisingly, she slowly stopped moving. Soon, she ceased movement all together landing straight on the platform.
Papi: 350 Mano: 400
"That's it! That's 400 to Papi's 350!" Tiny shouted. "MANO WINS REWARD!"
All of the Mano members cheered for Schokolade as she slowly slid down the platforms with a small smirk on her face happy at her success.
(Later)
"Congratulations, Mano! You had won Reward." Tiny smiled as he handed Schokolade the fishing gear. He then turned to the other tribe who looked upset. "As for the rest of you, I got nothing for you. You both may head back to camp.
(Mano Tribe)
"Things couldn't had gone more better. Not only did I won Reward for my tribe but I was the only one who landed on the top platform." Schokolade explained. "That shows how valuable I am and should show the men of the tribe who truly runs this camp."
Schokolade, Peter and Tigerlily stood on the small beach. Schokolade had on swimming gear and scuba gear while holding the harpoon, Peter had the net and Tigerlily had the fishing pole.
"All right. I will go in the ocean to see if I could spear any fish for food, you two stay here in case there are any fish nearby." Schokolade explained. "But make sure you are at opposite ends of the beach. It would be problematic if one of you caused the other person to miss out of catching a big fish."
"Okay." Peter and Tigerlily said half-heartedly.
Schokolade nodded before adjusting her scuba mask and dove straight the water in hopes and catching some fish leaving the two friends on the shore.
"Ugh! That woman rubs my wings the wrong way." Peter said in annoyance.
"Now, now, she DID won the Reward for us." Tigerlily scolded. "Besides, she isn't the worst person around here.
Karen then walked past them trying to wince her hair.
"Ugh! My beautiful hair is ruined! If I knew that this would be my faith, I wouldn't had jumped at all! Wear a brush when you need one! Worst of all, nobody tried to help me fix it! And I got a few tears in my dress!"
Peter and Tigerlily winced without looking behind them.
"I see what you mean." Peter said flatly.
"These days here just get worse and worse. First, Tiny put me on a tribe full of Neanderthals. Then, I had to sleep on the ground. The GROUND." Karen complained. "And now, I had to do that stupid Challenge even though we all knew that I would had gotten only 25 points, anyway!"
Karen growled as she stormed over to the fire pit where Bryan was sitting. The cop looked up to see the girl sitting down muttering curse words under her breath.
"Honestly, this game is driving me up the wall?" Karen grumbled putting her hand on her face.
"Sheesh, what's up YOUR butt?" Bryan asked with a raised eyebrow.
"Well, it just so happens, commoner, I am stuck on a tribe with a bunch of tacky people!" Karen countered. "Honestly, I don't know why I even came on this stupid show!"
"Duh! For the moolah, of course!" Bryan snapped. "I mean, come on! The old "I came on Survivor to have fun, make friends and prove myself" crud? Pfft. Oh, please! Everyone knows the reason we are all here is for the money plain and simple!"
Karen narrowed her eyes before she opened her mouth to yell at Bryan. However, once she did, she froze in her place before eyeing the sides of her and closing her mouth.
Bryan couldn't help but smirk. "Aw, what's wrong, princess?"
Karen crossed her arms. "You're... You're right, okay? While I came on the show to become more noticed, I DID wanted the money for myself!"
Bryan chuckled as he did a bow. Karen growled at this.
"Save it. That is the only good thing I am saying about you, you peasant!" She snapped.
"Hey! At least I am not an ugly furry just like some of the other people here." Bryan countered.
Karen groaned as she rubbed her temples. "Ugh... Don't remind me. I honestly thought they were tacky costumes. But when I found out they weren't, I wished they were!"
"Yeah, animals aren't supposed to walk and talk! They are supposed to be food and clothing!" Bryan nodded. "Like that Tea runt, what the heck is she supposed to be? A mutant?"
"Yeah, fur AND scales? Bleah." Karen said in disgust. "That tiger is disgusting too. I saw her trying to cuddle up to that birdboy!"
"Oh, for the love of everything that is pure, don't reproduce!" Bryan groaned rubbing his temples. "You are already breaking the laws of nature by existing!"
Karen put her hand to her mouth as she giggled. Bryan saw this and looked amazed.
"Hey! You laughed!" The policeman said in awe. "This is the first time I seen you smile, let alone giggle."
Karen looked down before shrugging. "Well... This is exactly the first time I had a conversation like this."
Karen sat in the camera looking off-screen with an embarrassed smile on her face. "Yes, I admit it that I am a little ashamed to be talking to a commoner like this but hey, this is the most realistic conversation I ever had. I admit I did not liked Bryan at all at first but he turned out to be very funny."
"Yeah. I didn't like Karen at first but she is one of the only things I could talk about all of the things that suck." Bryan said with a grin. "Also, she is the only one who DOESN'T make me barf. I pretty much hate everyone else here. So yeah, I am keeping my company with Kare."
"Hey, Karen." Bryan said. "Could you help me with something I been trying to figure out?"
"What is it, Bryan?" The aristocrat asked with a raised eyebrow.
"Well, who do you think is the biggest loser?" The cop asked. "Tom or Red?"
"Definitely Red." Karen said with a smirk. "At least Tom KNOWS he's worthless. That gives him a few points."
Bryan grinned. "True that. True that!"
As the two people started to talk with each other, Tea (who happened to walk by) watched this scene with blinking eyes. She then sighed shaking her head as she walked off.
"Well, I'll be lying if I said that they weren't made for each other."
(Papi Tribe)
"We just lost our second Challenge in a row. This is definitely not going good for our morale." Dormie lamented with a sigh. "Thankfully, it is still early on so we still have a chance to catch up with the other tribe. And I hope that chance comes soon because a few people look like they are ready to give up hope."
Everyone made their way back to the shelter, Stinky looked around.
"Hey, anyone seen Crocodile Punchee and Goliath?" The skunk asked with a raised eyebrow.
"Wally and Greg? I seen the former dragging the latter away into the jungle just when we got back to camp." Vincent pointed out. "I don't know why however. Wally seemed really excited though."
Stewart blinked twice in confusion before getting up. "I am going to see what they are doing."
"Good idea. Who knows what that guy is up to?" Amanda nodded.
"We all noticed that Wally and Greg weren't with us when we went back to camp. While I am not a nosy person, I couldn't help but be a little curious as to what they were up to." Stewart said with a shrug "I mean, Greg I am not too worried about but Wally is such a wildcard."
The doctor continued walking towards the jungle wondering what were the two up to. Suddenly, he saw them and once he did, his eyes widened.
Greg was watching a distance from a tree which Wally was standing on it with a vine in his hand.
"No sooner than we reached back to camp, Wally came out of nowhere and pulled me aside into the jungle." Greg said with his arms crossed. "Apparently, he wanted to try some kind of experiment and needed someone to boost him into the trees."
"Are you sure you want to do this?" The muscle-man asked.
"Of course!" Wally said with a grin. "Ah just can't get over how fun that Challenge was! That's why I wanted ta do it at our camp."
"WALLY!"
The Kangaroo's eyes widened before he looked down to see Stewart rushing over.
"What are you doing?" The doctor exclaimed screeching to a halt.
"Um, playing Tarzan?" Wally asked a little worried about where this was going.
"Well, get down from there! It's dangerous!" Stewart shouted.
"Most of the fun things are, mate." Wally said with a smirk.
"I'm serious!" Stewart exclaimed clenching his fists together. "You could seriously fall down and really hurt yourself!"
"Aw, don't be such a Negative Ned!" Wally said taking the vine.
"But..." Stewart said before turning to Greg. "Greg, do something."
"Sorry, Stewart. I tried to talk him out of it but he just wouldn't listen." The green-clad man said shrugged.
"Ah know doctors are always there ta make sure that ya don't get hurt but Ah think Stewart is being a little overprotective here." Wally grinned. "Ah mean, come on. Survivor is a show where you do once-in-a-lifetime things and Ah intend to enjoy every last minute of it."
"Mate, Ah appreciate the heart-bleeding concern but Ah will all right. Ah survived worse beatings!" The Australian said with a smirk.
"But..." Stewart started.
Unfortunately, his plea fell on deaf ears.
Wally jumped off the palm tree hanging onto the vine for dear life. He then let out a Tarzan-like yell swinging from the rope for dear life. Stewart and Greg looked in worry. The kangaroo was having the time of his life laughing like a maniac with his eyes closed.
Stewart continued to watch Wally swing from the vine. Suddenly, he saw something that made his eyes widened in horror.
"Wally, look out!" Stewart yelled.
The Australian opened his eyes wondering what was the problem. Suddenly, he saw that he was swinging over to something.
CRASH!
Stewart and Greg both looked away in pain after watching Wally made a hard landing. They both turned their heads wondering if Wally was okay. The boxer groaned face-down on the ground trying to regain his consciousness.
"Wow! That was some crash landing!" He said. Suddenly, he gave a small smile. "Well, at least I landed on something soft."
With that, he rubbed his sore head against whatever he landed on. He felt much more better instantly. Wally smiled before raising his head up to looked down at what he crashed into.
To find a VERY furious snarling face of Amanda.
Wally's eyes widened in horror realizing what he just rubbed his head against.
"OH..."
Two seconds later, Wally flew through the air from the jungle to the ocean in form of a giant brown blur before hitting the water hard. Everyone at the shelter jumped at this.
"What the heck was that!" Stinky exclaimed.
"Some kind of comet?" Dormie asked.
Greg and Stewart on the other hand watched the scene with a slack jaw at what had just happened while Amanda dusted her hands together with a vex look on her face.
"Um, can you get expelled from the game for throwing somebody?" Stewart asked.
Amanda sat in front of the camera holding her chest with her snarling face as red as a tomato. "Wally... Needs... To... Die... A... Horrible... Death..."
(Day 5, Mano Tribe)
Bryan and Karen once again sat at the fire pit talking to each other. Meanwhile, most of the other Mano tribemates watched them in surprise.
"I can't believe I am witnessing it." Peter said in awe. "Karen chatting with someone who isn't as rich as her."
"And Bryan is actually having a nice conversation." Tigerlily nodded.
"A lot of surprising things had happened on Survivor but this takes the cake." Peter pointed out with wide eyes. "Bryan and Karen... Are friends? Ha. They probably became acquainted when they were both trash-talking about other people."
"Well, they ARE both negative." Tea said with a shrug. "Plus, very annoying. They were both able to click with each other."
"Hey, as long as they keep each other occupied by torturing the rest of us." Peter said with a shrug.
Suddenly, the two laughed out loud making some of the others tribemates covered their ears in pain.
"Actually, they are MORE annoying than before." Tea grunted grumpily.
"Bryan and Karen are both like car alarms. They go on and on for who knows how long and don't matter what you do, they just keep going." Tea groaned. "And THAT'S just by themselves. They are more annoying together!"
"They ARE getting more irritating." Schokolade said tapping her finger against her elbow.
"Ugh... Their voices are making my ears bleed..." Red said holding his head in pain.
"Fellow tribemates!"
Everyone turned around to see Franklin once again marching over with treemail.
"Our next Challenge approaches." The knight grinned.
Becky couldn't help but grin. "Cool! What is it?"
Franklin read the note. "It clearly says "How well is your aim for the prize?"."
Schokolade crossed her arms. "It's a Challenge that involves targeting. I don't know what it is but I believe I could easily do it."
"With only one eye?" Tom asked raising an eyebrow.
Schokolade quickly whirled her head around glaring at the producer. The older man winced as he quickly looked away. She then shook her head in hopelessness before glaring at Bryan and Karen.
"Bryan. Karen." She said getting the two's attention.
"What is it you want, Schokolade?" Bryan asked looking clearly annoyed.
"We have our next Challenge." The tan-clad woman said before looking sternly. "And I would expect full participation from both of you in the Challenge."
Karen simply huffed. "Humph. What is wrong with her?"
Bryan then smirked. "Oh, she is just cranky that we are not treating her like the queen that she thought she deserved to be treated like!"
With that, the two people laughed. Most of the Survivors winced at this. Then, Tigerlily narrowed her eyes.
"Bryan and Karen are two of the worst people I ever met. I had never saw someone act so rudely towards people literally did nothing to them." Tigerlily said with a serious look on her face. "And since yesterday, they actually got MORE annoying. How is that even possible? The sooner we get rid of them, the better."
(Immunity Challenge)
Both tribes walked onto their tribe mats ready for the Challenge ahead. Tiny smirked.
"Are you guys ready for today's Challenge?" Tiny asked as everyone nodded. "Good. Take a look."
The two teams looked forward. Surprisingly, they didn't find much around the Challenge Area. Just two targets on the ground.
"Here is your next Challenge. Three people from each tribe will operate a giant slingshot. On my mark, you will launch a ball from the slingshot onto your respective target. Whoever gets closest will win a round. We are playing best two out of three which means everyone might have to join in." Tiny explained. "Once again, Immunity is back up for grabs. Win this Challenge and you are safe from tonight's Tribal Council."
Everyone looked at each other realizing that this was a simple challenge but also hard.
"Now, seeing that Mano has one extra member, who would you be sitting...!" Tiny started.
"ME!" Karen piped up. She then sneered at Schokolade who crossed her arms in an annoyed fashion.
"Um, okay. Karen is sitting out." Tiny said. "Now, let's discuss the order."
(Later)
"All right! First up for Mano, it is Tom and Becky holding the slingshot with Tea firing while holding it for Papi is Stewart and Helen with Allison firing!" Tiny announced. "Papi won the coin toss again so you may start, Allison!"
The pink alligator gulped nervously before looking at her helpers.
"Just relax and aim, sweetie." Helen reassured.
Allison narrowed her eyes and nodded knowing this was her big chance. Taking a deep breath, she stepped back pulling the slingshot back and then released it sending the ball through the air until it fell onto the target. However, it was barely on the edge.
"Well, it's on but barely though." Tiny noted.
Allison sighed as she slumped her shoulders not happy with the result.
"Maybe next time, Allison." Stewart supported.
"Tea, it is your turn."
The hybrid girl nodded as she narrowed her eyes in determination. Adjusting the situation, she pulled the slingshot and let it fly. It actually went a very good distance in the air. Soon, it landed on the target.
"Good shot. Mano win the first point." Tiny said. "Mano leads 1-0."
"Yay, Tea!" Becky cheered.
The orange-clad child couldn't help but smirk in triumph.
Everyone then left the field so the next formation could come in. For Papi, it was Vincent and Amanda holding the slingshot with Greg firing. On the other hand, the Mano tribe had Bryan and Franklin keeping the slingshot in place with Red firing.
"All right, Greg. Whenever you're ready."
The strongman nodded as he pulled the slingshot back and carefully aimed. Trying to adjust the direction, he let it rip sending the ball flying a good distance. Surprisingly, it actually let very close to the middle.
"Well done, Greg. It was nearly a bulls-eye!" Tiny smiled.
"Most impressive indeed, my good man!" Vincent grinned making the large man smile in satisfaction.
Red narrowed his eyes seeing Greg get praised like that. He knew that he wanted to be cheered on like that. So thinking quickly, he put the ball back as far as he could and fired it. It zoomed through the air like a comet. Unfortunately, it zoomed over the target all together.
Tiny blinked twice as he watches the ball go into the ocean. "Well, safe to say that's a miss. Papi wins the point 1-1. Whoever wins this next round wins Immunity."
"Way to go, you big, dumb loser!" Bryan said rolling his eyes.
Red immediately growled. "SHUT UP!"
Franklin shook his head in hopelessness as he followed the bickering two off the field followed by the others. Next up was Wally and Dormie holding the slingshot for Stinky of Papi while Schokolade and Peter were doing the same for Mano's Tigerlily.
"Everyone remember, whoever wins this match wins the entire Challenge!" Tiny announced.
Stinky narrowed his eyes realizing how much was at stake. He didn't wanted to lose three Immunity Challenges in a row so he knew he had to get a good shot. Pulling the slingshot back, he let it fly into the air. Everyone watched as it zoomed until it landed on the target barely making the halfway point to the middle.
"Hmm... Good shot." Tiny noted. "Now, if Tigerlily beats that shot, Mano wins Immunity."
"Way to lay the pressure." Stinky spat.
"Chill, mate." Wally said.
"You better win this one, furrball!" Karen shouted cupping her hands to her mouth. "I liked winning Immunity Challenges!"
Tigerlily growled when she heard this.
"TL, don't let her break your concentration!" Peter said.
Tigerlily quickly nodded as she looked determined. She knew that she needed to concentrate to focus on her target to win Immunity. Carefully aiming the slingshot, she aimed it high before firing it into the air. Everyone watched the ball zoomed into the air. However, it didn't went a long distance as it fell down ten feet from the catapult.
"It's a miss. Papi gets the point!" Tiny announced. "PAPI WINS IMMUNITY!"
The Papi immediately started cheering at their first victory while some of the Mano looked down in defeat while others glared at Tigerlily for costing them the win. For some reason, the tigress looked satisfied.
(Later)
"Well done, Papi Tribe. You had won Immunity AND your first Challenge." Tiny said. "Now before you may go back to camp, you have to kidnap someone from the other tribe."
The Papi tribe started to talk to each other trying to figure out who to kidnap. Soon, they broke their huddle.
"Tea." Vincent said.
The young girl simply shrugged before walking over not looking too surprised.
"All right, Tea will stay with the Papi tribe until the next Reward Challenge where she would rejoin Mano." Tiny said before smirking. "Oh and before you go..."
With that, he threw something at the other tribe. Amanda was quick to catch it. On further investigation, she found it was flint.
"You may go back with flint giving you a better chance of making fire." Tiny smirked as the Papi tribe cheered. "Speaking of fire, you got a date with my tonight at Tribal Council with one of your torches will be snuffed. You may return to camp."
(Mano Tribe)
"We lost our first Challenge today. And we lost it in a very stupid way I might add." Red said rolling his eyes. "Tigerlily's attempt was just pathetic. She messed up that shot so bad, I also considered voting her off. Thankfully for her, I got bigger targets in my sights."
Schokolade had summoned seven of the contestants to the camp fire while Karen decided to rest in the shelter.
"All right, Schokolade. You summoned us, what do you want?" Red said grumpily as he crossed his arms.
"Yes. Why are you so desperate for an audience." Franklin said crossing his arms.
Schokolade narrowed her good eye. "I had summoned you to discuss our plan for tonight."
"As leader of the tribe, it is my duty that nothing happens without me knowing. And that includes Tribal Councils." Schokolade said sternly. "Karen and Tom two of the most pathetic attempts for people I had ever seen and I would love to get rid of him. However, while Tom knows his place, Karen acts like we should worship her."
"We are going to vote off Karen tonight." The German woman ordered.
Peter couldn't help but smirk. "Finally, an order I am more than willing to take."
"Yeah... She is mean." Becky shuddered.
"I would so LOVE to see her torch get snuffed." Tigerlily smirked.
"Don't sound so confident." Schokolade said quickly. "It is your fault that we lost the Challenge in the first place."
"Huh?" Tigerlily asked stepping back nervously
"The reason I let you fire the shot instead of me because Peter and I were about the same height and we couldn't afford to unbalance the slingshot." Schokolade said coldly. "However, if I knew how bad a shot you would had gone, I would had done it myself."
Tigerlily gulped nervously. "Um, sorry?"
"Sorry doesn't win Challenges, Tigerlily." Schokolade scolded. "And it certainly doesn't excuse your poor performance today."
"All right! That's enough!"
Everyone turned to see Peter stalking over looking vex.
"So what if Tigerlily bombed at the Challenge? It was most likely a fluke!" The winged man scolded. "Besides, her poor performance with slingshot had nothing to do with her overall Challenge strength. I mean, how many slingshot Challenges are there going to be, anyway?"
Schokolade narrowed her good eye glaring at the winged demon. However, Peter stood firm not backing down to the tan soldier's intimidation tactics. Tigerlily looked back and forth between the two before making her way over to them.
"Now, now. I admit it. I sucked at the Challenge." The tigress said nervously. "But come on. That's not important right now. What is important is getting Karen out of here. Right?"
Schokolade and Peter glared at each other for a moment before looking away.
"I must admit, I am inclined to agree with you." Schokolade said. Then, she glare at someone else. "Going back on the topic, I expect an unanimous vote."
Bryan scoffed as he crossed his arms. "Oh, I love it when your one eye glares at me when you said it."
"Bryan, I mean it." Schokolade said raising her voice a little. "I expect our first Tribal Council to have everyone voting for the target. I do not care if you bonded with her, vote against us and you might be next."
Bryan rolled his eyes. "Yeah, yeah, yeah."
With that, he walked off waving a dismissive hand. Schokolade tapped her finger against her elbow not looking pleased.
"That Cyclops think she could boss me around just because she had military training. Well, I am here to prove her otherwise!" Bryan smirked. "I got a foolproof plan to help me win this game and seeing that the only person I like here is the target, I decided this was the best time to use it."
After Schokolade dismissed everyone, Peter and Tigerlily went walking through the jungle.
"Thank you for sticking up for me, Peter." Tigerlily sighed.
"Yeah, no prob. Aside from the fact that you are my friend, I wasn't too fond of Schokolade from Day 1." Peter said crossing his arms.
"Yeah. I knew that a few people would get mad at me for losing the Challenge but yikes!" Tigerlily cringed. "I didn't think they would go THAT far!"
"They are just a bunch of jerks, TL." Peter said shaking his head. He then chuckled. "But to be fair, your attempt wasn't that hot."
Tigerlily simply smirked at this. "Yeah, that's true. Not even Karen could mess up a shot like that on purpose."
"Yeah, but..." Peter started.
Suddenly, he froze in his place with his smirk vanishing. Tigerlily noticed this and stopped at well.
"Wait. On purpose?" Peter asked. His eyes then widened. "Tigerlily, you didn't..."
The female feline smirked with a wink. "Yep, I did. I threw the Challenge."
"That's right. I knew the Challenge. I am not really that bad with a slingshot." Tigerlily smirked before she looked serious. "Karen had been nothing but negative since she got here and it is really taking a damper on everyone. Plus, since she made friends with Bryan, she gotten more annoying if that's even possible. I believe the decision I made was the best one."
Peter put his hands on his head not believing what he was hearing.
"No, no, no! Bad girl! Stupid girl!" The demon scolded looking like he was about to lose it. Tigerlily looked taken back by the response.
"What's the big deal, Peter?" She shrugged. "Don't you hate Karen too?"
"Not enough to throw a freaking Challenge!" Peter exclaimed.
He then walked away to Tigerlily while rubbing his temples.
"Peter, calm down. Karen was more a liability AND an annoyance." Tigerlily pointed out. "It would be better for everyone to vote her off."
The middle-aged man turned his head glaring at his friend.
"Did you not WATCH last season or did you just watched the parts where that Calvin kid made a fool of himself!" Peter exclaimed. "Yomi did the same thing to get rid of that Mignon girl and after she was gone, it was HER handing in her torch."
Tigerlily crossed her arms getting a bit annoyed. "So? This is completely different. We are a strong tribe. We can deal without her."
"That's what Yomi thought too." Peter scolded. "But her "brilliant" plan in my opinion was the reason the Kongs lost their momentum!"
"And you honestly think that losing a spoiled brat like Karen would do that to us?" Tigerlily asked. "Our tribe is stronger than that!"
Peter groaned as he rubbed his temples. "Look, just promise me no matter who ticked you off, don't ever throw a Challenge like that again."
"Relax. Besides Karen, Bryan is the only one I hate. And at least he is more or less useful." Tigerlily said rolling her eyes. "You are WAY overdoing it."
"I actually thought Tigerlily was smarter than that." Peter said crossly. "Nothing good ever comes out of throwing Challenges and will come back to bite you in the rear. I sure hope Tigerlily realizes that."
Meanwhile, Bryan and Karen had summoned Franklin, Becky and Tom to the shelter.
"The rest of the afternoon I thought I would be by myself looking at the ocean. However, Bryan came by and asked me to join him in the shelter." Tom shrugged. "When I obliged, I find that he also summoned Karen, Franklin and Becky there as well. Something is seriously going on."
Franklin crossed his arms. "All right! You gone to the trouble of getting us here. Why?"
"Yeah, what is going on?" Becky asked.
The young man looked around at the four people surrounding him. After making sure they were the only ones there, he sighed.
"All right. I have a secret to tell you and you have to promise not to tell anyone." Bryan said.
Everyone looked at each other in confusion.
Franklin raised an eyebrow. "I'm listening."
Bryan then reached into his chest holster. Everyone looked in interest. Suddenly, he then put out something to show to his tribemates.
It was a police badge.
"I am undercover on a mission." Bryan said with a serious look on his face.
Franklin, Becky and Tom gasped at this while Karen looked shocked.
"Undercover?" Becky repeated.
Bryan nodded. "Yeah. I am here to stop an evil plot that involves three of the contestants here."
Franklin's eyes widened at this. "What?"
"That's right." Bryan agreed. "Schokolade, Red and Peter are in cohorts."
"What? What do you mean?" Becky asked worried.
Bryan let out a small sigh. "Let me explain everything to you. Schokolade, Red and Peter had been known all over the universe for stealing money and causing destruction. However, only by the intergalactic police which I am a part of."
"Wait. They work together?" Becky said in awe. "But that's not how I see it."
Bryan shook his head sternly. "They are good. They can act anyway they want to help themselves. Don't be fooled, they are devious masters!"
Franklin and Becky looked at each other before looking back at Bryan.
"But why would three villains be doing on Survivor?" Tom asked.
"That's easy, Tom. They want to take the million dollar grand prize. And by take, I mean... Overpower the Survivor staff and take it for themselves." Bryan explained. "They plan to take the cash money by force."
Karen gasped in horror putting her hands to her mouth.
"Which is why I need the help of you four." Bryan explained. "I need all the help I could get to foil their plans."
Becky, Tom and Karen stood stunned for a moment but Franklin on the other hand narrowed his eyes.
"I knew it. I knew that from the minute I saw those three, they were up to no good." Franklin said darkly.
"So I have your support?" Bryan asked.
"But of course." Franklin said with a small grin holding out his hand.
Bryan stood in his place for a moment before smiling and accepting his hand.
"I was completely wrong about Bryan. As first, I thought he was an arrogant man who had no manner of respect for anyone but as it turned out, he was just acting like the villain to throw the real ones off-track." Franklin said stunned before smiling. "He really is a true fighter of justice. And to think, I question the fact that he was really a cop."
"I'll help you!" Becky said excitedly pumping her fist in the air.
"Same here." Karen smiled.
"Um, I will give it my all too." Tom said.
"Perfect!" Bryan said with a grin.
"Who shall we target first, O fighter of justice?" Franklin asked.
"Peter because he is the weakest of the alliance." Bryan explained. "Normally, I'll go for the strong first but we raise suspicion and risk being the secret getting out."
"Right, we understand." Franklin nodded.
"We can count on us!" Becky said with a wink.
Bryan and Karen both smiled at this. However, they were more sinister than friendly.
"I think I nearly burst a lung trying NOT to laugh at their stupidity. Can you believe how gullible these fools are!" Karen said holding her sides in laughter. "Everything Bryan said was a LIE. There is no evil conspiracy or anything like that. It was just a ruse to get me and Bryan far. And it worked! Ha ha ha!"
"Sometimes I impress even myself. I still can't believe those idiots actually believed me about fighting injustice! Please! I became a cop to legally own a gun! That's why I became one!" Bryan sneered. "But their stupidity are getting Karen and me far! All I have to do is act like I am really some justice-loving loser and they would do anything I say!"
(Tribal Council)
The nine Mano members went back to their first Tribal Council meeting. They then saw Tiny along with everything else.
"Welcome to Tribal Council, Mano tribe." Tiny smiled. "Grab a torch and light in the fire."
Everyone nodded as they each grabbed a torch and put it in the fire igniting it.
"In this game, fire represents your life." Tiny explained. "If your fire is gone, so are you."
The Mano tribe nodded as they put down their torches before sitting down on the benches.
"Now, Becky, how is life at your camp?" Tiny asked.
The girl scout couldn't help but smile. "Oh, wow! Our camp is awesome! The campsite is lovely and the shelter we made is wonderful!"
"Oh, so I assume that everyone is getting along well." Tiny said.
Becky's smile vanished as she looked to the side. "Um, well, maybe."
"I am NOT liking that answer." Tiny said shaking his head. "Bryan, care to explain what Becky meant by this."
"Basically, what she was trying to say is that we are a big cluster..." The brunette explained. "Well, you know what I mean. Particularly because of Red and Schokolade."
Red's eyes widened when he heard this. "ME! You are the one who kept picking fights with everybody!"
Bryan scoffed. "Picking fights? Please, I could beat you in my sleep!"
"How about I'll make you sleep FOREVER!" Red snapped.
"Now, now. Calm down. Schokolade, Bryan, also seemed to blame you for the conflict at camp." Tiny explained.
"I merely decided to take lead the tribe since I had the most experience as a leader." The tan-clad woman explained. "Bryan, along with some other people just have no respect for authority."
"Oh, I have respect for authority, all right! Just not the ones who gave themselves such responsibility." Franklin piped up.
"I designed the shelter. I made the Challenge formations. I organized the chores." Schokolade said. "I doubt any of you would had done it if given such power."
"I don't know. I guess I will never know!" Peter spat.
Tiny shook his head. In hopelessness. "Tigerlily, you seemed to had cost the tribe the Challenge, does that make you a target?"
"Well, I admit a few people are mad at me but I don't think so." The blue-clad women explained. "In fact, I think everyone is overreacting a little, I mean I know I messed up at the Challenge but come on! There will be other ones. Ones where we can show our true unity as a tribe!"
Peter rolled his eyes at this.
"Peter, what was with that expression just now?" Tiny asked.
"Oh, nothing. Just wanted to remind Tigerlily the consequences of losing a Challenge for the tribe and that you should be careful." The demon said narrowing his eyes.
Tigerlily simply scoffed as she crossed her arms. "I am NOT worried at all."
Everyone looked confused at the two's behaviour.
"Karen, what is it like being all the way from your soft life?" Tiny asked.
"I must admit. This first step into the commoner world was dreadful." The aristocrat frowned. "With all of this camping and Challenges and other stuff, I felt I took a little more than I could swallow."
"Do you think that will be your downfall tonight?" Tiny asked.
"Perhaps. You just never know at Tribal Council." Karen shrugged.
"Point well-taken. All right, time to vote. Karen, you're up."
The yellow-clad teenager nodded as she stood up and elegantly walking over to the voting table and wrote down a name. "Go back to your cave where you belong, demon." She said holding up "Peter" to the camera.
Red walked over to the voting table and picked up the pen to write down a name. However, he dropped it on the ground causing everyone to laugh at him. Growling in anger, he wrote down a name and made his way back.
Franklin narrowed his eyes as he marched all of the way to the voting table, wrote down a name and put it in the urn without second guessing once.
Becky did the exactly thing as Franklin but she looked a little bit more nervous than Franklin. Nonetheless, she wasted no time writing down a name.
Bryan smirked as he swaggered over to the voting table knowing exactly who he was voting for. "This would make great practice for signing my check." He said holding up "Peter" to the camera.
Tom adjusting his glasses as he walked to the voting table, wrote down a name and put it in the jar with a surprisingly-satisfied smirk on his face.
Tigerlily happily skipped down the path to the voting table happy about how things are working out. "Peter thought it was a stupid idea to throw the Challenge but wait till he sees it was worth it." She said holding up "Karen" to the camera.
Peter casually walked to the table still looking a bit upset by what happened today. Still, he managed to write down a name with a straight face. "You are one of the most annoying things I ever met and I'm from Castlevania." He said holding up "Karen" to the camera.
Schokolade took the most time making her way to table and writing down a name. Firmly holding the note, she put it in her urn before walking back without a second look.
Once she made her way up, Tiny got up.
"I'll go get the votes." He said before getting up.
Everyone watched as Tiny walked back with the urn.
"I'll read them. Remember, once the votes are read, the decision is final. Whoever gets voted off have to leave the Tribal Council area immediately." Tiny said.
"First vote, Karen."
Karen scoffed crossing her arms.
"Second vote, Karen. Two votes, Karen."
Karen tapped her finger against her elbow.
"Third vote, Peter. Two votes, Karen. One vote, Peter."
Peter raised an eyebrow at this wondering why Karen voted against him.
"Fourth vote, Karen. Three votes, Karen. One vote, Peter."
Tigerlily looked at Peter with a cocky smirk on her face.
"Fifth vote, Peter. Three votes, Karen. Two votes, Peter."
Peter and Schokolade immediately glared at Bryan who simply waved his fingers at them.
"Sixth vote, Peter. Three votes, Karen. Three votes, Peter."
This completely got Peter's attention as he looked to the host with wide eyes.
"Seventh vote, Peter. Four votes, Peter. Three votes, Karen."
Peter held his head not believing that he got more than two votes.
"Eighth vote, Karen. Four votes, Peter. Four votes, Karen. One vote left."
Karen looked over at Bryan who simply grinned and winked at her.
"Second person voted out of Survivor..."
Everyone looked on wanting to see the last vote.
"Is Peter."
The winged man wasn't the only one who looked horrified by the vote. Tigerlily looked just as shocked as Schokolade and Red stood wide-eyed. The others couldn't help but feel happy.
"Peter, you need to bring me your torch."
Having managing to accept his fate, he got up and picked up his torch looking defeated.
"I don't know you guys been smoking but you just made a stupid mistake." He said indignantly.
"Yeah, yeah, yeah. Just fly the coop, birdie!" Bryan sneered.
Peter growled as he made his way over to Tiny and put his torch in front of him,
"Peter, the tribe had spoken." Tiny said putting his snuffer over the torch extinguishing it. "You may now go."
"Don't need to tell me twice." Peter snapped before storming off.
Tiny watched him leave before looking at the Mano tribe. "You just voted off one of your stronger players as your first vote-off. Wow. I don't know what you guys were thinking but I hope it is for the best. You may head back to camp."
Everyone grabbed their torches and walked out of the hut to go back to camp with mixed reactions. Tigerlily was in the back still horrified by the results of tonight's vote on the verge of tears. Her friend had been voted off and what was worse, she felt it was all her fault.
"One of the stronger players of my tribe and I was the first booted out of it. Unbelievable. Simply Unbelievable. How could anyone be so stupid to keep KAREN over me?" Peter groaned rubbing his forehead. "I wish I could say that my short experience was fun but those idiots made the entire time Headache City Central. The only good thing about this is that I could at least get some peace and quiet now."
RESULTS
Peter: Becky, Bryan, Franklin, Karen, Tom
Karen: Peter, Red, Schokolade, Tigerlily
And Peter flies out of the competition. He was always an early boot who got voted off by the villains from the start. He never did had the personality to go deep into the story so he was completely expandable.
NOTE: I actually considered making Peter a vampire but then I realized how stupid that will be. A vampire playing Survivor? That sounds more like the next book in the Twilight series.
