Previously on, Survivor,
With Freddy Fazbear out of the game, the Pagi tribe felt as though the game was back at the pace it was meant to be played at. Despite their alliance working at the first vote, Nicole was still unsure about trusting Lobo, although Pikachu and Shulk weren't feeling the same way. Meanwhile, Freya tried to get Cyrano's trust, although Cyrano seemed unwilling to trust her.
Later that day, the big six person alliance of Deadpool, Moses, Lobo, Pinkie Pie, Jess, and Freya discussed who to vote off next out of the five players in the minority. However, it seemed a little difficult to decide, as all six players had a different target in mind. Meanwhile, Cyrano rubbed Juli the wrong way by acting like a father figure.
Over on Tagong, Etna and Midna were both rallying up the troops in order to take the other player out of the game. Etna made an alliance with the neutral players in Kellam, Monita, Toriel, and Grune, while Midna made an alliance with the villains Sweet Tooth and Dr. Mario. This alliance also included the likes of Kellam, although he was unaware.
Later on that day, Zola got Martian Manhunter and Toriel's confirmation to join the alliance with her, Jake, and Eric. With many targets on mind, the two names that came up the most often for first boot were Grune for being weak, and Sweet Tooth for being such a threat. Meanwhile, Jake and Eric talked about the alliance, and it was there that Jake realized that Martian Manhunter was playing quite a dirty game. Already, Martian Manhunter was using his shape shifting powers to be other players.
At the immunity challenge, despite Tagong's best efforts, Pagi ended up winning immunity and reward, sending Tagong to their first tribal council.
While celebrating their victory, Cyrano found a clue to the location of a hidden immunity idol, but he was forced to share it with Freya, when she was so close to him when he found said clue.
Before tribal council, Midna's alliance decided to bait Etna into a sense of false security, and target Eric instead. Eric was seemed to be scrambling and talking to everyone in the eyes of Midna, so he became her first target. Zola's alliance targeted Grune at Martian Manhunter's request for a strong tribe. The ones in the middle were Etna's new alliance, and after Kellam told them about Midna's plan, the vote seemed closer then imagined.
At tribal council, Midna's alliance was left in the dust as the majority votes went in favor of Grune, sending the older, happy-go-lucky woman home in an 8-4 decision. 22 are left, who'll be voted out tonight?
Pagi: Cyrano, Deadpool, Freya, Jess, Juli, Lobo, Moses, Nicole, Pikachu, Pinkie Pie, and Shulk
Tagong: Dr. Mario, Eric, Etna, Jake, Kellam, Martian Manhunter, Midna, Monita, Sweet Tooth, Toriel, and Zola

Tagong Day 6
When the tribe returned from tribal council, morale was definitely low after voting off Grune. It had to be done, but very few people were happy about it.
"Grune was a super sweet, lovable woman," said Monita, "It is a shame we had to send her home so soon."
"I did make a good friend with Grune in the first five days, but this is Survivor. You cannot make friendships in this game. You want to make one million dollars. Sending home Grune was important for the Tagong tribe to be prepared for the future challenges. Nobody was happy, though." - Monita
"I would have liked to known more about her, honestly," said Dr. Mario, crossing his arms, "She seemed like she had a lot of things to learn about her."
Jake nodded softly, "Yeah, I know what you mean. And now we'll never know who she truly is, huh?"
"Well, it's not like we were voting out an all powerful goddess or anything," shrugged Etna, "If anything we're stronger now to take on Pagi."
"With Grune gone, I feel like now we're a stronger tribe, and if we lose, we're definitely coming after Midna. Midna's playing a little too hard too fast for my own tastes. Listen, girl, I should be the one doing what you're doing. Why are you so bitter about how I played in Cuties? You beat me!" - Etna
Eric stepped forward a little bit, "Excuse me, but last night confused the heck out of me. Why did I get a lot of votes?"
"Because you were acting like a clueless little old school player," shrugged Midna, "Going around and talking to everyone in sight, trying to keep yourself safe."
Eric raised an eyebrow, "Wait what...? I never did such a thing, Midna."
"How could you forget doing that?" asked Midna, raising an eyebrow, "Already getting amnesia? Seriously, you can't play like a clueless moron, and I know I'm not the only one who saw you talking with everyone."
Martian Manhunter's expression tensed a little.
"On Day 2, I transformed into Eric in order to form the alliance I wanted to form. I meant no ill regards for Eric getting into trouble, however. Since that is why he got targeted in the first place, I immediately regretted it. The only thing I can do, is apologize, and save him." - Martian Manhunter
"I do not believe you should be pointing the finger at Eric for what he did." said Martian Manhunter.
Midna looked over at him, and grinned, "Ohhh... ohhh I see how it is. How could have I forgotten that power of yours, J'onn? Transforming already? You really thought you would get away with that?"
Martian Manhunter shook his head, "I believe what I've done with my powers would have been tame compared to what you might have done with them."
"J'onn comes forward, and confesses that he was the one pretending to be Eric, and getting him into the hot seat! Aha! How pathetic of J'onn really. He's already such a big threat at the merge. What he just did ultimately sealed his fate. He's going home the next time we lose, and I won't be sad." - Midna
Midna rolled her eyes, "Whatever, J'onn. Just know that people already know what you're doing. You're already such a threat in the merge, so enjoy your final days."
Zola stepped forward, "Really? Do you think we should just vote J'onn out for a simple mistake? Clearly that's the least of our worries."
"You want to take him far into the game, do what you want, Zola," sighed Midna, "Just know that he's going to dominate just like he almost did in Singapore."
Zola shrugged, "I'm not afraid of J'onn's strength, Midna. I've faced much stronger, actually."
"Do I honestly care about J'onn's powers and what he did to Eric? Not at all. If he was truly Eric in our conversation on Day 2, he said he would only use his powers for the greater good instead of for bad. I mean, that's already a sign that he's going to be loyal. Midna on other hand... not at all." - Zola
Meanwhile, avoiding conversation with the others, Dr. Mario and Sweet Tooth walked down the beach for a quick little talk.
"Listen, forget about Midna, alright?" began Sweet Tooth, "Just follow my command from here on out. You can already see that she's falling apart."
Dr. Mario nodded, "Yeah! Seriously, I mean, she's right about J'onn, but we already know she's got a target on her back! She's going home soon, and if we don't jump away, we're next!"
"That's why we make a deal with a different devil. Hopefully, she will help us more then Midna ever did." grinned Sweet Tooth.
"To me, it's very clear staying with Midna is basically staying on the trail to failure. I don't stay on those kinds of trails, boys and girls. I hop off, and make my own trail. This betrayal won't be so 'silent', but it will be the first of many in this crazy game of Survivor Last Chances. Get ready!" - Sweet Tooth

Pagi Day 6
Sitting around the camp fire, Jess, Nicole, Pikachu, Shulk, and Lobo were talking about their alliance, and what was coming up in a few days.
"Man, I think I underestimated Moses' ability as a fisherman," smiled Jess, "I think he's caught a total of fifteen fish since yesterday afternoon."
Lobo grinned, "That's only a warm-up, doll. Wait until I get my grubby hands on that spear. Then it'll become a showdown of the bandit against the Main Man."
"Moses is a great fisherman! He's caught the Pagi tribe a huge amount of fish, but... I thought that being a bandit came with being a good cook. But his cooking has been terrible... but thankfully Nicole and Jess took over cooking duty for the fish, and it's been excellent so far! Pika!" - Pikachu
"I think as long as the two of you keep catching fish, I believe there's no way we can lose to Tagong again." smiled Nicole.
"Hell yeah! We got the protein, they got... what, rice and fruit? Get me away from that crap. I live on meat and bones!" laughed Lobo, grabbing one of the raw, uncooked fish, and eating it.
"And clearly you live on raw food as well." giggled Jess.
Shulk shook his head, "Well, what won't kill him will only make him stronger, right?"
"I feel like in the last six days, opinions on Lobo have changed. Jess has always liked him. Nicole and Pikachu were frightened by him, but now seem to respect his power. As for me... yeah, I'm beginning to dislike him a lot. He's obnoxious, loud, and not very polite. I just can't get along with him." - Shulk
Jess smiled, "Well.. I think I know what we need to do for our next vote. Honestly... it's between Cyrano and Juli for me. I'm leaning more towards Juli. She's not that strong, only fast. She's whiny, bratty almost. Reminds me of how I was back in Green Hill, just more whining involved."
"Maybe that would be easy to do!" replied Pikachu, "Because like, I noticed she and Cyrano got into a small little fight the other day. At least... I think they did? Juli and Cyrano were talking, and then... she just stomped off. Something happened.."
Lobo shrugged, "Well that's easy enough. We can send either one home as easy as that. In fact, send 'em both out one by one!"
"I want Juli to go home first, because... in our alliances, she's the only one I think I can get out of the game without any hassle at all. Cyrano at least has Freya protecting him, which is.. strange enough as it is. If I can get Juli out first, then like... I don't have to betray anyone at the next vote, right?" - Jess
"I thought you were wanting to split up Pinkie Pie and Deadpool first?" asked Shulk, raising an eyebrow.
Jess nodded her head, "Yeah, and I still want to, but like... the more I see them together, the more I think it's pointless. I mean like... their relationship is like Pikachu and Nicole's. They're just besties, that's all."
"But wouldn't 'besties' be considered to be a tough pair in the game of Survivor?" asked Nicole.
Jess nodded, "Yeah, but you know... me splitting them up would be like splitting up you guys. It's just not worth the effort. I mean, it's not like either Deadpool or Pinkie Pie are playing the game, right?"
"Never count your chickens before they hatch, Jessica." replied Nicole.
"I did find Jess' change in targets a little interesting. The first couple of days she was ready to split up Deadpool and Pinkie Pie. Then she wants to change her target to Juli... which is odd considering I haven't seen a reason to vote off Juli yet. I don't know what Jess is planning, but it's odd." - Nicole
Meanwhile, Juli was swimming around in the waters of Prison Island. She was in her squid form, and enjoying the waves.
Cyrano walked down to the beach, hands behind his back, sighing softly.
"A couple of days ago, I rubbed Juli the wrong way about... I still don't know what I did wrong. I believe my mistake in Distant was not playing a stronger social game, ah-CHOO. Being assoicated with Limberg I believe hurt my game, but I came close. I need to perfect my social game." - Cyrano
"Excuse me, Juli, could we talk about something, ah-CHOO?" asked Cyrano.
Juli poked her squid head out of the water, and swam back to shore, turning back into her normal form, "Sure, what's up dude?"
"I wanted to apologize for my comments," sighed Cyrano, "Although... you struck my curiosity, ah-CHOO. I do not want to make the same mistake again, so... mind telling me why I rubbed you the wrong way?"
Juli sighed, looking away from Cyrano for a little bit, crossing her arms, "...I don't like the fatherly attitude you were giving me the other day. I can't stand it when older men like you try to do that, dude."
"But why? There has to be a reason, ah-CHOO?" asked Cyrano.
"You want to know why?" asked Juli, "Well, I'll only tell you once, got it, dude? My real father abandoned me, that's why."
"When I was still growing up, I never really knew my mother. I relied on my father throughout my childhood. At a certain point, he left to go fight in an Octarian war, and left me to live with Rusty, my best friend at the time, and his family. He never showed his face again. What a punk ass loser." - Juli
"Ohh... ohh I see why now, ah-CHOO." frowned Cyrano, if he could, considering he was an anteater.
Juli sighed again, "I lived with Rusty ever since he left, and eventually joined his black ink gang, despite my green ink bloodline. I don't know if he's dead or just missing, or doesn't give a #%#%. I could give a rat's ass about him anymore. Drop the fatherly act, alright? This is a game, and if you get voted off, I won't hear it again. You know how that is..."
Cyrano nodded softly, "I understand... thank you for telling me, Juli, ah-CHOO."
"She didn't tell me a whole lot besides that, but I can piece together the rest of the story, ah-CHOO. I believe Juli was a much more respectful girl before her father left her. Then she became the way she was living with that gang she mentioned, and the words she uses. I feel sorry for her." - Cyrano

Tagong Day 6
Walking down the forest trail, Etna, Sweet Tooth, and Dr. Mario were talking about the game.
Etna shook her head, "Well, to me it's no surprise what Midna's planning. You didn't have to tell me that for me to become aware of that."
"Even then, she's coming after you, so you should retaliate against her!" exclaimed Dr. Mario.
"Only if the numbers are right," replied Etna, "Yeah, people seem ready to vote Midna off, but there's still other targets on mind now. Like J'onn, Monita, Kellam for instance."
"I want to vote out Midna at the very next chance I get. But I'm not going to foolishly gun for her when nobody else will. That's something she would do, but that's not my style. I want to come prepared for the next vote. Midna won't see it coming, and that will make for a juicy blindside." - Etna
"Well, let me offer you this, then, Etna," said Sweet Tooth, "The three of us together, plus a player of your choice. I'm already making a deal with the devil... so you better be willing to make a deal with the devil yourself."
Etna grinned, "Heh, me working with the great Needles Kane? Never thought I'd see the day, huh?"
Sweet Tooth grinned as well, although nobody saw it, "This is a match made in hell, after all. The three of us, especially you and I, already have targets on our backs. We can make that target weaker by working together as one unit."
"Working with Etna is a crucial point in my game. If I have Etna's loyalty, I can control her far easier then I was able to with Midna. Midna wanted to control me, and that's just not how I roll in Survivor. You can't control a crazy clown, it's just not how that works, boys and girls." - Sweet Tooth
"If we're going to add anyone to the alliance, I would like that person to be Kellam," explained Etna, "I trust him far more then someone like Monita, really. I don't think Kellam has anyone now."
Dr. Mario nodded, "Kellam's lost Freddy, anyway. He'll just find another person to latch onto, really. And that will be us!"
Etna nodded, "That's exactly what I was thinking anyway. He did say he was in with Midna, but... he sold her out. So I think he trusts me more then he did her, anyway."
The three players then shook hands to confirm their alliance.
"Aligning with two of the most calculating villains in the show's history? Lord, please help me, I'm feeling the vapors!" (He fans himself) "This is already getting exciting! A great doctor and strategist such as myself normally would normally stand no hope against them... but not really!" - Dr. Mario
Meanwhile, deep in the forest, Martian Manhunter was floating off to go get tree mail for the upcoming challenge.
"I believe the game has been getting a little more challenging lately. Now that I have been caught out as a shape shifter when I had originally wanted that fact to slip by their minds, I now have to play a little more carefully. Midna's quite right, but I can't let her get what she wants." - Martian Manhunter
As Martian Manhunter got deeper into the forest, he heard someone clear their throat.
"Hmm?" He turned his head over to the right, and noticed Kellam sitting on the log nearby, "Oh, Kellam. What are you doing here?"
"Waiting for you, actually," replied Kellam, "I know it sounds strange, but I wanted to have a word with you."
"Kellam's always been a quiet soul. He likes to listen more then talk, and people hardly remember that he's even here, which surprises me honestly. In all that armor, how could you miss a guy like him? With Freddy gone, he's certainly in a better spot then he was with Freddy around." - Martian Manhunter
"Of course. What is it that you need?" asked Martian Manhunter.
"I know you can shape shift into other players," explained Kellam, "So um, what I wanted to suggest was... using my body as your own personal shape shifting form. Nobody ever notices me after all."
Martian Manhunter raised an eyebrow, "You mean like transforming into you, and working together for information?"
Kellam nodded, "Exactly. I'm juggling two alliances right now, I think. If we work together, we could potentially get the information we need to make a good decision. Nobody will ever question it, since, well... everyone forgets I'm here."
"Kellam's offer is an interesting one, if I may say so myself. I never thought about using him as a transformation, but now I feel like I could have used him instead of Eric. I do not believe people would ever question two Kellams walking around. At least, I don't think they would." - Martian Manhunter
After a little bit of talking it out, both Martian Manhunter and Kellam agreed to the plan.
Out of the forest, Jake was carrying some wood supplies towards the fire. He noticed Kellam walking out of the forest, "Oh hey Kellam!"
Kellam waved at him with a soft smile.
Jake continued walking forward a little, and saw Kellam again, "Hey Kellam, again!" He didn't seem to question it at all.
The other Kellam smiled and waved, and walked over to the real Kellam. They then high fived eachother.
"Working with J'onn is a risk, but I feel like I'm the perfect person he could use to carry out his information gathering. Not to mention, working together, we could find a good alliance together. Should I align with Etna? Or Midna? I'm leaning towards Etna, but you can't be sure." - Kellam
– – – – –
Pagi Day 6
Meanwhile, near the edge of the forest, Deadpool and Pinkie Pie were looking at the island across from their own.
"I'm sure of it, Pinkie Pie!" smirked Deadpool, "That's the Tagong island! Want proof?"
Deadpool reached into his pocket, and pulled out a pair of binoculars.
"Ooh! Where did you get those?" chirped Pinkie Pie.
"Swiped them off some cameraman," shrugged Deadpool, "Think he was spying on you or someone else. Who knows, who cares, the cameraman are irrelevant. I heard their names change every episode."
"Fun fact of the episode! Did you know Pinkie Pie and I rehearsed that scene above? That's right, that was directly copy-pasted from Survivor Singapore's Episode 3! We just had to do all over again, because that's who we are! We're silly, we're zany, we're both a little looney! Ahaha!" - Deadpool
"Okay, all improvised now!" declared Deadpool, looking through the binoculars, "Let's see here... there's Jake over there... that's Zola looking as hot as ever... and two Kellams! Oh my God he learned cloning."
"Ooooh! Cloning! I want to learn that trick in the future! I like being at ten billion places at one time!" giggled Pinkie Pie.
Deadpool rolled his eyes, "Yeah, I bet even ten billion Kellams won't even make him noticeable. Sad existence for the tin man, huh?"
"I'm having the time of my life out here on Survivor for my second chance! Like, omigosh, getting to spend all this time with Deadpool is just amazing! He's silly, zany, and looney!" (Suddenly, Deadpool poked his head in from the side.) "Hey! I said that already! Don't copy me!" - Pinkie Pie & Deadpool
A few minutes later, Freya approached them from behind, "Whatever are you two doing, uff da?"
Deadpool threw the binoculars into the ocean, and turned around to face Freya, "I'M SORRY SORLAG DON'T KIL- Ohh... right, wrong season. See, Pinkie Pie, I told you I would make that mistake."
Freya rolled her eyes, "You two are very looney you know that, uff da?"
"And nobody likes inside jokes," noted Deadpool, "So just say why you're here so we can move on to a different scene, 'kay?"
Freya sighed, "Well... I think we can clearly tell in this alliance that Lobo, Moses, and Jess are very close as a trio, uff da. So... why don't I take you both under my wing, hmm?"
"Okie dokie lokie! I already like this alliance, don't you Deadpool? I mean, hey, we're both pink! It fits right?" giggled Pinkie Pie.
Deadpool nodded softly, "And wouldn't you look at that! Two pink goddesses together at once! Tumblr would be crying rainbows if they could see this right now..." He starts streaming tears of rainbows.
"Working with Deadpool and Pinkie Pie would be working with two bozos who have no concept of what Survivor is as a game, uff da. However, I think that's perfect for a cougar like me. They won't even see it coming, because nobody will ever vote for them... so it's an easy win for me." - Freya
Freya shook her head, "All I ask of the two of you is for you to keep your mouth shut, and just listen. Once the time comes, we make our moves, uff da."
"You got it madame!" grinned Deadpool, shaking Freya's hand, and then Pinkie Pie's again.
"You know, completely off topic here, but I gotta say it's very odd that Freya's so defensive of Cyrano. Like, why are you defending him? He ran the show with a guy who claimed to be the Puppet Mouse. Am I the only one noticing this, or am I the only smart guy... yeah probably the latter." - Deadpool
Meanwhile, out in the ocean, Moses, Lobo, and Jess were out fishing and discussing the game.
"So tell me this, Sandor," noted Lobo, "If you had your pick, who would you send home between Juli or Cyrano?"
"Easily Cyrano," replied Moses, "Like, c'mon, man, we need the strength 'round here! At least Juli hasn't lost any strength since her last season! Cyrano has!"
"Cyrano won four individual immunity challenges in Distant! That is complete bullcrap now that he's here makin' a name for himself a second time! Oldest guy here, and he's out of shape compared to the last time he played! Listen, he ain't got much time left before he's sent home, aiight?" - Moses
"But see, like, the only thing Cyrano has is the fact that he's very helpful around camp, and he has body strength," explained Jess, "Kinda like Littlefoot almost? He's not physically strong, but he can put up a good fight."
"Juli's also a sneaky bitch," shrugged Lobo, "We keep her and send Cyrano home, she's gonna be playing hard to get out. We may have the numbers, but who knows what crap she'll spill to Shulk and the others."
Jess grinned, "So you're getting on the boot Juli train, now?"
Lobo shrugged, spitting out into the ocean, "You convinced me, Jess! Either way, it's going to be one, then the other next! Might as well make it interesting if you ask me."
"I wanted Cyrano to go home next, but Jessica wants to send home Juli... so whatever, I'll let it happen for once. Jess wants to feel comfortable in these alliances we're both in, and sending home Juli is sort of the default option. Whatever happens, we'll still have the numbers to run this game!" - Lobo
Moses shrugged, "Whatever man, just give me the word, and I'll make it happen, 'kay? Whether it's Cyrano, or Juli, we'll do it. Seems to be the two universally agreed on choices, right?"
Jess nodded, "Seems like that, yeah. That said, I don't know what Freya, Deadpool, or Pinkie Pie want though."
"Ehhh they'll go with whatever. Freya wants Cyrano around, so she's definitely anti-Juli," said Lobo, "The other two will just go with the majority so that they can remain in power. We're good no matter what."
"Yeah, that's another reason I want Cyrano out," muttered Moses, "Freya's gettin' too peachy with him lately!"
"Honestly, there's something going on between Freya and Cyrano, and I can't put my finger on it! Like, c'mon, if you have an alliance with him, it's clearly not transparent enough! Lobo and Jess want Juli out, but my gut is telling me Cyrano, honestly. We can't let that continue any further, man." - Moses
– – – – –
"Come on in guys!"
Both tribes entered the challenge area.
"Pagi getting your first look at the new Tagong tribe; Grune voted out last tribal council."
Nobody was that surprised to see her go home. Moses looked disappointed, though.
"Guys ready for today's immunity challenge?"
Everyone nodded.
"I'll take immunity back from you, Pagi."
Freya did so.
"For today's challenge, from Survivor Dingo Canyon, two tribe members at a time will race out to roll four barrels from one area to the other and set them up on the platforms. Once you have all four barrels and they're set up on the platforms, two tribe members will take turns tossing sandbags onto each barrel. First tribe to finish this task wins immunity, and reward."
Jeff revealed comfort items, including a pillow, blankets, tarp, and a hammock.
"I'm sure Midna and Lobo remember the days of old Prison Island. Freezing at night, and rainy at different times of the day. Win today's challenge, and you will get some needed warmth, protection from the rain, and even a hammock to lay in. Let's get started."
Pagi
Rolling Barrels over: Juli & Moses, Lobo & Shulk
Tossing Sandbags: Nicole and Pikachu
Tagong
Rolling Barrels over: Jake & Zola, Martian Manhunter & Sweet Tooth
Tossing Sandbags: Monita and Toriel
"Survivors ready? GO!"
Juli, Moses, Jake, and Zola all ran out first to collect the first barrels for their tribes. Both sets of players were pretty good players, but Moses had a trick up his sleeve for the challenge. Once he and Juli got to the barrels, he lifted Juli up onto the barrel, and then hopped on himself. Both Moses and Juli started to roll the barrels down via running on top of it. This was much faster then Jake and Zola simply using their hands.
"Ahaha! Try and stop us now dudes!" grinned Juli.
Once Juli and Moses reached the end, it was Shulk and Lobo's turn to get the next barrel. Once again, Jake and Zola were still doing the challenge normally while Lobo and Shulk decided to take the easy route. Lobo sparta kicked the barrel all the way towards the Pagi tribe. Juli and Moses caught it barely, giving Pagi a two barrel lead over Tagong.
Juli and Moses ran out one more time to get the third barrel, and repeat the same thing they did the first time. By this time, both Zola and Jake had returned the first barrel for Tagong to the starting line.
As Martian Manhunter and Sweet Tooth ran out to get the next barrel, Moses and Juli were once again rolling the barrel down with their feet. Moses taunted them as they passed by, giving Pagi a much stronger lead in barrels.
Martian Manhunter did not feel threatened at all, and powered up his intangibility powers to grab the barrel, and easily placed it on the Tagong mat without any pushing whatsoever. All he and Sweet Tooth needed to do was just run back to the mat to swap out with Jake and Zola.
Lobo and Shulk were moving the barrel with their hands this time around, given that Lobo's strength almost broke the barrel in the first place. However, Jake and Zola came pretty prepared for the third barrel. They were faster then the likes of Lobo or Shulk, and given Shulk's latest rolled ankle at the last immunity challenge, it was giving Tagong the catch up it needed when they collected the third barrel.
Despite Shulk's injury from before, he and Lobo were able to collect the final barrel for Pagi. Once it was all set up, Nicole and Pikachu now had to throw sandbags on top of the barrels.
Both Nicole and Pikachu were having little trouble in the little carnival mini game of tossing sandbags. Despite any good effort from Martian Manhunter's superpowers, it was becoming a little hopeless for the Tagong tribe.
…
…
…
And hopeless indeed it was, as Pikachu landed the final sandbag on the barrel just as Martian Manhunter was carrying the final barrel to Tagong's mat.
"THAT'S IT! PAGI WINS IMMUNITY AND REWARD!"
All of Pagi hugged and cheered.
"Another strong win for the Pagi tribe! You've definitely caught back up to where Tagong had you beat in the first challenges of the season! Because of your win today, not only are you all safe, but you will also have comfort in the form of blankets, pillows, a tarp, and a hammock! Enjoy! Sadly Tagong, tribal council tonight. Another tribe member going home after seven days. See you all then."
– – – – –
Pagi Day 7
Everyone returned back to camp in high spirits after winning their second challenge in a row.
"Now that's what I'm talkin' about, man!" cheered Moses.
Deadpool and Pinkie Pie were carrying the hammock and looking for a place to put it, "Yeah I know right? We won a hammock! What purpose is there for us to have a freaking hammock!"
"More comedy scenes, right?" giggled Pinkie Pie.
"Ohhh... okay, that makes more sense." replied Deadpool.
"I'm glad we won today's challenge. It wasn't so much we needed a win as much as we needed the momentum over Tagong. They were really tough to beat in the first two challenges, but now we have the numbers advantage over them. It's really amazing to say the least. I hope we keep it up." - Shulk
Nicole and Pikachu sat down near Shulk in the shelter while Cyrano and Freya set the tarp up and over their shelter
"I noticed you were limping today at the challenge. Are you okay Shulk?" asked Pikachu, concerned.
Shulk nodded his head, "Ohh, don't be worried, guys. It's just a rolled ankle from the last immunity challenge. I've just been staying off it, and I didn't want you guys to be worried about me."
Nicole smiled at him, "It's good to keep your strength, Shulk, but... always tell us about it. I mean, what if it's worse then it actually is?"
Pikachu shook her head, "Nahhh.. I doubt it! It's just a rolled ankle. What else could it possibly be? Pika?"
"Shulk's probably the only guy on this tribe that I can talk with and have a normal human conversation with. Lobo, Moses, even Cyrano are a little pretentious. And Deadpool... well, he's better then them, but he's just so random. At least with Shulk, he means well, and has a lot to offer in this game." - Nicole
Meanwhile, Deadpool and Pinkie Pie got the hammock all settled up and tied between two trees.
Deadpool sniffed at it's design, "Ol' Peter Parker would be so pleased at our work if he were here with us today.."
"Kinda looks like a spider web, doesn't it?" giggled Pinkie Pie, "In fact... I think you kinda turned it into one, Deadpool!"
Deadpool shrugged, "Gotta spicen up life around here if you know what I'm saying!"
Meanwhile, the camera was looking up at the top of the hammock, right where a hidden immunity idol clue was located.
Suddenly Deadpool grabbed the camera and forced it to look straight at him.
"Hah! You thought we wouldn't notice? Grab it Pinkie Pie!" ordered Deadpool.
Pinkie Pie reached up to the top of the hammock, grabbing the clue, and stuffing it down her shirt, "Tee hee! Got it!"
"Deadpool loves fooling around with the producers that constantly film us for 24 hours! Hey! Don't you wanna go on Survivor guys? Cameramen that film you without saying any words at all? Filming you while naked, filming you when you're doing anything? Doesn't that sound like fun!?" - Pinkie Pie
"Next time, don't be so naïve around us, got that Mr. No-Name Cameraman?" said Deadpool, making the camera move up and down in a nodding manner, "Good! Now switch over to Tagong!"
He placed his hand up against the lens to black out everything around the camera.

Tagong Day 7
With tribal council looming, and a rivalry tempted to settle the score, quite anything was possible going into the vote.
Down by the beach, Jake, Eric, Martian Manhunter, Toriel, and Zola were figuring out what to do with the vote tonight.
"Before we begin the discussion," sighed Eric, before looking at Martian Manhunter, "Listen.. should we really be concerned at all about your shape shifting powers?"
Martian Manhunter shook his head, "I do not think you should be concerned at all. Like I told you all before, I will never use my power for evil. If I use it, it will benefit this alliance. I made that promise in Singapore, and I will make that same promise here."
"J'onn transformed into me a couple of days ago, and while I'm tempted to vote him out of the game for that alone... it's too early to betray my alliance. Especially when I think Toriel and Zola seem to like J'onn. Jake and I are the only ones with concern, so.. I'm just keeping quiet about it for now." - Eric
"Anyway, now that that's out of the way," said Zola, "I have two targets in mind; Midna and Sweet Tooth. I'm personally leaning more towards Sweet Tooth if you ask me. If we send home Midna... Etna will no longer have someone to constantly gun after. Etna could become our next enemy if Midna is gone."
Jake nodded, "Yeah, I know what you mean. Etna's definitely one of the more sneakier players to ever play this game. She's going to do whatever it takes to win, so.. yeah, I'm down for voting out Sweet Tooth if only to remove a big threat from the game, but also keep Etna at bay."
Toriel grew a little worried, "You know... I think it could be a mistake. J'onn was right after all about Sweet Tooth. We need the strength... and we're down in the numbers. I say it should be Midna tonight."
"I think if we vote off Midna tonight, we will be a stronger tribe. Midna's also on the outside, so what if a swap were to come around? She would be a perfect player to flip to Pagi's side. I don't see Sweet Tooth flipping at all. There's no reason for him to, like there is for Midna. That's my point." - Toriel
"Actually, you make a pretty valid point there, Toriel," commented Jake, before remembering something, "Oh yeah! Before I forget... since we're all going to be working together for a long time... here's a clue to the location of a hidden immunity idol. I found it a few days ago."
He pulled it out of his pocket and shared it's contents with Eric, Toriel, Zola, and Martian Manhunter.
Zola grinned, "Good to know, Jake. As long as we have one of the clues, we have a chance to get the idol before someone like Etna or Sweet Tooth."
"Just be weary of Etna's fake idols. We know what she was capable of doing before." warned Martian Manhunter.
After a little bit more discussion, the alliance agreed to vote out either Midna or Sweet Tooth. The alliance then split off.
"This alliance is actually working out better then I had anticipated. Especially after what happened yesterday morning between J'onn and Midna. Honestly, J'onn... he's not going to do anything malicious. He's not that kind of player. Even though I know that... I'm still watching." - Jake
Meanwhile, deep in the forest, Midna, Sweet Tooth, Dr. Mario, and Kellam were having a talk.
"I know yesterday morning I was coming after J'onn hard," sighed Midna, "But honestly, with our alliance, we can't let a chance like this pass up. We're voting Etna tonight."
Sweet Tooth looked over at Dr. Mario and Kellam for a few moments, before speaking again, "So, you already changed your mind about her? You don't seem to have a good idea of what you want, Midna."
Midna rolled her eyes, "I know, I know! It's just, this is my third chance, I want everything to go just right! Tonight, once Etna goes home, I will feel like a different girl. I'll feel ready to play for real."
"Tonight, I want Etna to go home instead of J'onn. Yeah, J'onn's a large threat, but after our loss today, it gave me more time to think about who I truly want to go home. And yeah, Etna's at the top of the list. She needs to go home tonight, and it's more then just related to Cuties. She's a huge threat!" - Midna
"Etna's certainly a giant threat," replied Dr. Mario, "Making the Final 3 twice is no slouch for failure. I wouldn't be opposed to actually voting her out tonight."
"We'll just have to see what the others think," shrugged Kellam, "We may not even have the numbers to do anything."
"Well we better have the numbers," grumbled Midna, "Because if we don't, then I'm probably the one going home tonight. So I'm leaving my fate in your hands tonight. Scramble, fools.."
Sweet Tooth grinned under his mask evilly, "Whatever you say, then."
The alliance of four agreed to vote for Etna tonight, but of course, there was still a lot to do for the vote.
"You should never say something like that, Midna. Leaving your fate in my hands is one of the deadliest things you could ever hope to do in the game of Survivor. Perhaps tonight will be a lesson in learning for you. You played terribly this season... and you only lasted seven days.." - Sweet Tooth
A couple of hours later before tribal council, Etna was speaking with Kellam, Monita, and Toriel about the vote.
"Are you sure you have the numbers to get Midna out?" asked Toriel.
Etna nodded, grinning, "Of course I do. Dr. Mario and Sweet Tooth are ready to vote her off tonight. That's six votes including us. We don't really need anyone else."
"Midna chose to play dirty from Day 1, so that's how her game will end tonight. We both succeeded in making it to the Final Tribal Council, but... I seem to recall actually coming close to winning a season compared to her performance. She wishes to do better then me... but she fails nearly everytime." - Etna
Monita looked at her sternly, "I sure hope you know what you're getting into with those two. I wouldn't trust anything Sweet Tooth or Dr. Mario say for a minute."
Etna shrugged, "I got them under control. They came to me, alright? No need to worry about their loyalty. Midna's going home, it's done."
"Alright, good to know Etna." smiled Kellam.
After agreeing to the plan to vote out Midna, Etna left the area to pack up for the vote. Monita was still feeling concerned.
"I trusted Etna after we made our alliance a couple of days ago. However lately I have started to distrust her quite a bit. Someone who wants to associate themselves with the likes of Sweet Tooth or Dr. Mario is bound for failure. For some reason, I don't trust what Etna is telling us." - Monita
"If you were to ask me, I don't trust Etna at all right now." said Monita.
"Why's that?" asked Kellam.
"Because I have a slight feeling she might have made an alliance with Dr. Mario and Sweet Tooth," explained Monita, "I wouldn't have expected her to use their votes as opposed to someone like Jake or Eric. Didn't they vote for Eric last night?"
Kellam kept quiet a little bit, knowing that he was aligned in that very alliance. Toriel smiled at Monita, "I wouldn't entirely worry, Monita. Etna's a little untrustworthy, but I know she means well."
"Maybe she does. But I am not willing to put my fate in her hands in the near future. If you two would like to vote against Etna... would you?" asked Monita.
There was a little bit of silence between Kellam and Toriel. Neither were sure about it, but they still gave it some thought.
"Voting out Etna would be a good move... but at the same time, I feel like she's a safer bet then Midna or Sweet Tooth staying at this point. I do want Monita's loyalty, but she feels like a very reactionary type of player. Being a computer has it's perks, but sometimes... I feel like it's not that helpful." - Toriel
After some discussion about voting out Etna, a final decision was made.
– – – – –
The Tagong tribe arrived at tribal council.
"You guys had a nice, sweet run in the beginning of the game. Now it feels like you all hit a slump against Pagi. Kellam, what do you think is wrong with the Tagong tribe lately?" asked Jeff.
"I don't think there's truthfully anything wrong with the Tagong tribe. We're a good tribe, but I do feel like Pagi is definitely stronger then we are. They might have hit their stride when Freddy was voted off." replied Kellam.
"Midna, there seems to be a lot of tension on this tribe. Would you agree that's been playing a part in Tagong losing often?" asked Jeff.
Midna nodded.
"Absolutely. You clearly know Etna and I have had our rivalry spanning over like 12 years! That's definitely a distraction for our game in the long haul. We're probably swapping tribes in two more votes, and we're not in a good spot for it." replied Midna.
Etna nodded in agreement, as did Zola and Jake.
"Zola, what do you think Tagong can do to catch back up to Pagi?" asked Jeff.
"Clearly we need to go into the next challenge a stronger tribe. We cannot defeat Pagi if we're not a strong tribe. Now, whether or not that's strength in physical power, or team work, I won't say." replied Zola.
"J'onn, this is clearly nothing new for you. You were on one of the worst tribes in Survivor history on the Ruchong tribe! I know Tagong has a long way to go for that, but what can you do?" asked Jeff.
"Ruchong's problem was that it was controlled by a group of insane villains. While you could say that two of those five villains are on Pagi, there's far less conflict I predict. Like the others have said, we need to remove said conflict if we are to win any more challenges." replied Martian Manhunter.
Both Midna and Etna looked at one another.
"Monita, how do you vote tonight?" asked Jeff.
"I'm voting purely on trust tonight. That's all I can do at this point." replied Monita.
Toriel looked over at her, before nodding her head.
"Dr. Mario, how big do you think this vote will be?" asked Jeff.
Dr. Mario shrugged.
"Honestly, that's a pointless question to ask, Probst. The further along we get in this game, the more important each vote gets." replied Dr. Mario.
"Very well then. It's time to vote, Etna, you're up."
– – –
Etna's Vote: This rivalry ends tonight, Midna. I hope you enjoy your vacation without me. (Midna)
Midna's Vote: It's you or me tonight, and I much rather it be you tonight. So long, loser! (Etna)
Monita's Vote: This better be the right move for the future of Tagong. (?)
Zola's Vote: It all ends tonight for you. Fare well. (?)
– – –
"Once the votes are read, the decision is final, person voted out must leave the tribal council area immediately. I'll read the votes."
First vote, Midna. (She nodded.)
…
Etna. One vote Etna, one vote Midna. (She looked over at Midna.)
…
…
Midna. Two votes Midna, one vote Etna.
…
…
Midna. Three votes Midna, one vote Etna.
…
Midna. That's four votes Midna, one vote Etna. (She rolled her eyes, while Etna grinned.)
…
…
Midna. That's five votes Midna, one vote Etna. (She shook her head, groaning a little.)
…
Third person voted out of Survivor Last Chances, Midna. That's six, that's enough, you need to hand me your torch.
Midna grumbled a little, grabbing her things and torch, before handing it up to Jeff.
"Midna, the tribe has spoken."
He snuffed out her torch.
"Time for you to go."
Midna waved her hand lazily at the others before floating out of tribal council. Etna felt very proud of herself.
"That's one rivalry finished tonight, but I'm sure it's just the beginning of it as one of the first big players leaves the game. You can't ever predict what happens next in this game. Grab your torches, and head on back. Good night."

Midna's Final Words
"Ughh, this isn't how I wanted my last chance to go, honestly. I had a great strategy going in, but I feel like it was ruined when Etna was confirmed to be on the same tribe as I. Once that happened, it just all fell apart from there. I think this was stupid honestly, she's a much bigger threat in the long run..."
VOTE
Etna – Midna
Midna – Zola, Etna, Monita, Eric, Jake, Sweet Tooth, Toriel, Kellam, Dr. Mario, and Martian Manhunter
