(Byakko Tribe)
Le Cock and Lillian happily marches back to camp looking happy while holding hands.
"You did it, Le Cock!" Lillian cheered. "You are still in!"
"Indeed! This shining star is falling from the sky anytime soon!" The fake Frenchman smirked.
"I did it! I had gotten rid of that insult to role models everywhere and voted off Drow! Granted, I had to it with an Immunity Idol and I was the sole vote to get him out…" Le Cock mused. He then grinned. "But it only made things better. I know that someone like me shouldn't act bitter but after what that jerk said to me, I am glad that I had left him with an empty hole in his heart."
The others watched the rooster skipped off with mixed reactions.
"Well, someone seems to be having fun." Spencer said.
"I'll say. Must have feel awesome to blindside someone they disliked like that with a Hidden Immunity Idol." Malletman said.
"Yes, but it doesn't feel "awesome" that it had been used for an act of revenge instead of in the hands of someone who would want to make better use of it." Bianna said.
Kenny raised his eyebrow. "In Le Cock's defense, he would have been gone anyway regardless of the Immunity Idol."
"While that is true, I still can't believe that someone found it first…" Bianna frowned.
"Le Cock used the Immunity Idol to get out Drow. While he at least got rid of someone who was in some way of a liability, there is still this feeling of defeat." Bianna frowned. "I mean I know I may seem like I am disrespecting Le Cock but I can't be the only one who could be asking how did HE of all people find the Immunity Idol before the rest of us? The only positive is that it wouldn't be used against us now."
"In any case, there is no use whining about it…" The female robot sighed shaking her head.
"Yeah, we may lost a bit of strength but I think we definitely lost a bit of negativity." Malletman agreed.
"I suppose…" Kenny mused.
Malletman raised a non-existent eyebrow. "Still upset that you had lost the Idol to him?"
"No…" Kenny said shaking his head. "It is nothing. Let's go to sleep. We all had a big day."
"Yeah, pretty much." Spencer said stretching his arms out with a yawn. "Well, I am off to bed."
"Yes, it had been an eventful match for everyone." Bianna agreed as they all walked off to turn in for the night. At least they didn't have to deal with any more fights.
(Day 15; Genbu Tribe)
Charlie and Kira were searching around the bushes for something.
"Well, any luck?" Charlie asked.
"No, not really." Kira said. "Granted, we don't even know what we are looking for."
"Something. A blinging necklace. A wooden Idol." Charlie said. "Anything that would resemble the Hidden Immunity Idol."
Kira shrugged with her shoulders. "It WOULD be interesting if it is OUR hands."
Charlie looked up with an annoyed look on his face. "At least be an enthusiastic griefer, damn it!"
"It is official. The Hidden Immunity Idol is my only way to survive the next time we go to Tribal Council before I KNOW everyone is still giving me the evil eye for yelling at Galia." Charlie said holding his head. "As much as my enthusiasm for working with Kira had gone down a lot, she is literally the only person I got. I'll take what I get."
While the two were searching, the others were looking on them from afar.
"So they are looking for the Hidden Immunity Idol?" Anke asked.
"I don't think how they could NOT." Francesca said. "It is still who is in the minority."
Verona narrowed her eyes. "We can NOT let them find it."
Anke's eyes lit up at this. "So that means we are going on a treasure hunt?"
"Of course! Like hell we are going to let those two find it!" Verona said narrowing her eyes.
"Oh, goody! I always wanted to hunt for treasure!" Anke said with sparkling eyes. "So what do you think the Hidden Immunity Idol will be? Gold? Silver? Jewelry?"
"This isn't a game!" Verona scolded.
Anke shrank back at this. "But… It is."
Verona slapped her forehead as Francesca chuckled nervously.
"So guys, where do we start?" The wrestler asked.
"Well, you and Anke could start any place where you didn't those two aren't going to search yet." Verona said.
Angelo raised an eyebrow. "What about us?"
Verona actually had a small smile on her face. "Easy. We will finally get to be what it is like to be a Hunter."
The others blinked twice at this.
"If you spare mercy to your foes, they would literally eat you up! That is my slogan!" Verona said crossing her arms. "I am NOT letting Charlie and Kira find that Idol together! I refuse to have any more bad things happen to me just like with Galia!"
As Charlie and Kira continued looking for the Hidden Immunity Idol, the latter looked up to see Angelo and Verona walking over.
"We had gotten company." Kira said.
Charlie raised his head up and groaned at this. "Oh great… What do you two want?"
"Excuse me?" Verona said with a fake appalled look on her face. "This is a free jungle. We can be anywhere we want."
"Well, excuuuuuse me, princess." Charlie spat.
Verona narrowed her eyes. "Just what we need. A punk Link."
Charlie just scoffed. "All right. If this place is where you want to be, then fine! We'll scram! Come on, Kira. Let's go someplace else."
"Then, we will follow you." Verona spoke up.
Charlie gave an unimpressed glare. "And here I thought that you didn't care about me. And yet here you are stalking me."
Verona immediately grunted with disgust. "Get over yourself! I am only here to stop you from finding the Immunity Idol."
"And do you really think we would just let you do what you want after hearing that?" Charlie asked.
Verona just smugly smirked crossing her arms. "That is the beauty of it. You can't do a single thing about it!"
Charlie growled. "You have to catch us first!"
With that, he ran off.
Verona's eyes widened. "They are making a break for it!"
"After them!" Angelo yelled.
With that, the two ran after Charlie not wanting to let him get away.
Suddenly, Verona stopped letting Angelo chase Charlie by himself when she noticed something. Kira haven't even budged an inch yet.
"Um, are you going to follow your ally?" Verona asked.
"What is the point? Even if we do escape you, we would only get two or three minutes of searching for the Hidden Immunity Idol." Kira said. "Something we don't have."
"Well, I can't really blame you for giving but sheesh, at least try a little." Verona said putting her hands behind her head.
Kira paused for a moment. "Wow, you are so serious, aren't you?"
"Of course! I want to run this tribe smoothly." Verona said crossing her arms.
"Is THAT why you are so harsh to Galia for not voting your way?" Kira asked.
"Of course!" Verona snapped. "She let around my back for some stupid reason! How am I supposed to trust her with anyone?"
Kira paused for a moment. "Is it related to these morons from your home node?"
"Ugh, you can't me. Yes. It IS related!" Verona groaned.
"People call me a slave-driver. Well, so what? If you have to deal with Dumb, Dumber and Dumbest, then you would see why I am always so bossy." Verona said. "I don't want to be in large of a bunch of idiots, who can't see things my way!"
Kira paused. "Could it be… You are upset over Galia's actions is because you felt weak?"
Verona stepped back a bit. "Excuse me?"
"I shall ask again. Did you get upset because it made you felt weak?" Kira asked.
"W-What? What kind of question is that?" Verona asked.
"Well, I mean I don't really see how much you are over-reacting over Galia's hinky vote." Kira said. "Then, it hurt me. Galia is cowardly, weak-hearted and an absolute total trainwreck."
"W-What's your point?" Verona asked getting annoyed with Kira.
"Well, she is the perfect ally. She obeys the person she is aligned with. And have said weak person not vote the way YOU do…" Kira said before pausing. "I could clearly see why you are upset. After trying so hard to try to be the leader, the complete opposite happens and…"
"Now hold it right there!" Verona snapped. "I didn't align with Galia because she was weak. In fact, I hated that I had to pair up with someone like her even though we would had been stuck in a tiebreaker!"
"Oh?" Kira asked raising an eyebrow.
"Long story short, Bianna and Kenny are buddies, Celvis suck and that left me and Galia by default." Verona said. "I only joined her because it was the only thing I could do."
"Still, you MUST be upset. I mean if GALIA had gone around your back, what's good is the rest of the tribe in terms of cooperation?" Kira asked.
Verona's eyes widened before pausing for a moment. She then growled before walking off.
"Whatever. I am leaving right now." Verona said stomping off. "I don't even remember why I am talking with you!"
Kira raised an eyebrow. "I thought you were keeping me from finding the Immunity Idol!"
Verona froze in her spot with wide eyes completely stunned.
"I could see why Galia doesn't respect you." Kira said flatly.
Verona whirled around angrily. "Shut the hell up!"
"Verona… Is a mess. She tries to pull herself on some big, how you call it, HBIC but she in truth she is trouble woman with superiority issues." Kira said looking at her nails. "People see as some hardcore warrior but in truth, she is a spoiled brat who can do a few things with a gun."
(Byakko Tribe)
Spencer, Mami, Lillian and Le Cock were all huddled around a circle talking to each other.
"Now, I think we all why we are here." Le Cock said crossing his arms.
The teenagers nodded their heads. Le Cock smiled before nodding his head.
"To thank Spencer for saving me." Le Cock smiled.
Spencer scratched the back of his head. "Well, it is really more to get rid of Drow than to save you."
"Well, nonetheless, it was a good reason and I thank you for sacrificing your Immunity Idol for me." Le Cock said.
"Yeah, it is true. I gave my Immunity Idol to Le Cock to save him from elimination. Though I only did it to get rid of Drow." Spencer said before smirking. "The so-called soldier ant had been discharged from battle by a mere worker ant. I couldn't have dreamed of a more beautiful humiliation after that bullcrap ant speech."
"Well, seeing that we had worked so well together. How about we see how grand our teamwork goes?" Le Cock asked.
The three's eyes widened at this.
"Wait. Are you suggesting…?" Spencer asked.
Le Cock happily nodded. "Indeed. I want to be in alliance."
"I must admit that I was skeptical of Lillian's crush on Spencer for… More than one reason. But after he had saved me with his Immunity Idol, I realize that at least owe Spencer a chance." Le Cock said. "Who knows? Maybe we will share a love story that may top both Spencer AND Mami."
"So what do you say?" Le Cock asked. "I mean we do have the numbers to get the minority."
Lillian's eyes lit up. "At this, that's right! We could have our own Immunity!"
Spencer paused for a moment. "Well, that IS indeed an alliance none of the others would see coming."
Mami's eyes widened before looking at Spencer.
"So do you accept?" Lillian asked with hope.
"Well, personal I think it is a great…" Spencer said with a small smile.
Suddenly, Mami quickly put him in a headlock.
"I am sorry, guys. Could you excuse us for a couple of minutes?" Mami asked with a sheepish grin on her face.
"Um, okay?" Le Cock asked.
With that, she dragged Spencer off a good distance away to talk before releasing Spencer. The nerd gingerly rubbed his neck before glaring at the guilty party.
"Mami, what the hell was that about?" Spencer asked.
"That is MY line!" The rock star pointed out. "Aren't we already in a majority alliance?"
Spencer paused for a moment. "You mean with Malletman, Bianna and Kenny?"
"Of course!" Mami asked putting her hands on her hips.
Spencer looked down. "Well, I can't really speak for Bianna and Kenny…"
He then angrily raised his head.
"But I do NOT trust Malletman at all!" Spencer exclaimed.
Mami's eyes bugged out at this. "What? Is this because of Sugar's elimination? I am still mad too but at least he gotten us into a majority alliance."
"Oh yeah, I am really grateful for him." Spencer said sarcastically. "Picking us over a lazy mactor, a fairy and a so-called celebrity!"
Mami blinked twice. "What… What do you mean?"
"Come on! It is so obvious!" Spencer said rolling his eyes. "Malletman only put us into the majority because we are the biggest assets compared to the others!"
Mami gasped before stepping back before narrowing her eyes.
"Now hold on! I think you are jumping the shark!" Mami scolded.
"That is jumping the gun!" Spencer corrected. "And also, do you really how apathetic he was when you called him out about selling Sugar out?"
Mami's eyes widened before looking down. "Um, well…"
"If Lillian and Le Cock were traded for… Let's say. Angelo and Charlie, I could assure you that he would pick THEM over us." Spencer growled. "Face it, Mami! Malletman is nothing more than a meathead! No better than Drow and Robert!"
Mami blinked twice. "Wait… I see, Drow I could understand but why Robert is a meathead?"
"You really want to know?" Spencer asked as Mami nodded. "Fine, I'll tell you! After the stilt-balancing Challenge and he went to talk to me, he actually told me that it was dead obvious that I was suck at the Challenge!"
Mami's jaw dropped. "No…"
"Yes! He told me that I had no chance of winning the Challenge based on how I looked and told me that I was a huge liability!" Spencer growled. "The worst part? He did that to try to "cheer me up"."
"I hate people like that! Mainly because I have a school that is mostly run by them! Over-muscled idiots who had gotten to the top of the ladder just by throwing an oval-shaped ball around!" Spencer snapped waving his arms around. "They always bully me on how physical weak I am and how I actually WANT to have a career that doesn't involve football!"
"Man, that's rough!" Mami frowned shaking her head. She then crossed her arms.
Suddenly, her eyes widened.
"Um, Spencer?" Mami asked.
"Yes, Mami." The redhead asked.
"When did you say this happened?" Mami asked.
Spencer rolled his eyes. "I just told you! It was on Day 5 when we have that…"
Suddenly, he froze in his spot. Looking ahead, he saw that Mami was just as horrified.
"D-D-Day 5… Which is the day before Day 6…" Mami said. "The same day where we voted Robert out."
Spencer reached out his hand in a vain attempt to try to reassure Mami whatever she was thinking wasn't true. However, he realized that he was caught so retreating his hand with a wince, he looked down.
"Yes…" Spencer said.
Mami stepped back. "So are you saying that when you said that we were going into a tiebreaker?"
Spencer's eyes widened before stepping forward. "Now hold on! What I said was right! If we voted out Sugar, we would have been in a tiebreaker!"
Mami continued to step back looking angry. "Oh? And it is not an excuse you thought up to say that "Robert said a bad thing to me so I am going to vote him out!"?"
Spencer paused before realizing what she said. "Well, if you actually hear what he said…"
Mami groaned before turning around and rubbing her temples before walking off a few steps.
"Hey, he had it coming!" Spencer insisted.
Mami turned around looking furious. "If he had it coming, then why did you tricked me!?"
"I… I didn't trick you!" Spencer said stepping back. "Like I said, if we voted out Sugar…"
"Cut the crap, man!" Mami snapped. "I don't care if what he DID deserve it, you could have just told me instead of creating another reason!"
"Um, well…" Spencer said raising a finger. "Technically, YOU had thought up the idea on your own before I could even say so myself. So that means you created the reason."
Mami froze in her spot with her pupils turning into peas and her jaw dropped to the ground. Her body was fidgeting violently upon hearing what Spencer said. Spencer quickly noticed this and got a little concerned.
"Um, Mami?" Spencer asked.
The redhead growled before turning around and stomping off. "Okay, you know what? You win! Align with Lillian and Le Cock! It is obvious that my opinion doesn't matter so don't let me get in the way of you!"
Spencer's eyes widened before running off. "No, Mami, don't do this! Please! If you won't calm down and think this through for me, at least do it for you!"
"Spencer used me! He used me to vote off Robert for his own selfish reason! Oh man! If Malletman finds out about the real truth behind Robert's elimination, he will destroy me! He will tell everyone and get them to gang on me!" Mami said holding her head in despair. "Plus, how am I supposed to face ANYONE now? Everyone had either proven to be untrustworthy or hasn't known that well enough!"
Lillian and Le Cock watched with wide eyes as Spencer ran after a distraught Mami trying to calm her down. They both couldn't hear much but they knew that it was NOT a pleasant exchange.
"Oh dear… Perhaps we should give them a day or two before asking about our alliance again…" Le Cock frowned.
Lillian just blinked twice staring at the two. She then narrowed her eyes.
"I should have known it wasn't going to be that easy."
(Day 16; Genbu Tribe)
Charlie made his way through the jungle with Angelo following him. The former had a grumpy look on his face while the latter were shifting his eyes from back to forth.
"So how about them Packers?" Angelo asked.
Charlie grunted in disgust before looking back at Angelo before looking forward.
"What? You hate football?" Angelo asked.
"No, I hate being stalked around nearly every minute." Charlie muttered.
"Aw, come on! We are not doing this because we hate you!" Angelo insisted. "We are doing this to keep ya from findin' the Hidden Immunity Idol!"
"And you are trying to be buddy-buddy." Charlie said.
"All right… I'll be honest. This isn't fun for me either. In fact, this is boring." Angelo said.
Charlie rolled his eyes behind his shades. "Is that's why you are so determined to start a conversation about sports?"
"Or anything in general." Angelo shrugged.
Charlie merely sighed.
"I can't really say that it is a bad move. But by constantly stalking me and Kira around not giving us a moment's peace, they keep making themselves annoying me and making me more determined to take them down." Charlie said crossing his arms. "Now I know how those celebrities being chased by the paparazzi feels!"
"Treemail!"
"FINALLY!" Charlie said charging past Angelo knocking him to the ground before rushing in the direction of the voice.
After reuniting with the rest of the girls, they patiently waited for Angelo to return holding his head with a dazed look on his face.
"Are you okay, Angelo?" Francesca asked.
"Y-Yeah. Someone just got a little excited for the Challenge." The cowboy said making the punk grin at him.
"In any case, what does it say, small-fry?" Charlie asked looking down at Anke who had the letter.
"It says "How well do you know your tribe?" Anke read.
The tribe paused for a moment. They then looked at Charlie and Kira. The two people looked back and forth between the two.
"You know, just because us being in the minority is kinda obvious doesn't mean it is okay for you to not be subtle." Charlie said narrowing his eyes.
"I had always liked these types of Challenges but not only would it test how well we know most of the cast but it will also give out little facts that we never knew before!" Anke smiled. She then frowned. "Though having Charlie and Kira on our side worries me. I mean after Galia quit the game, they had talked to anyone else but themselves. The rift isn't THAT big but I hope it would not make us lose."
(Reward Challenge)
Genbu had made their way onto their tribe mat.
"We now bring in, Byakko." Tiny said as the tribe walked in. "Drow voted out at the last Tribal Council."
Francesca smugly smirked. "Shows what a lot of good his skills did to balance out his flaws."
"You are merely saying that because he elbowed you in the face." Kira said flatly.
"Um, duh?"
"Anyway, we will get ready for your next Challenge." Tiny said. "Take a look."
Everyone looked around to see two platform sets. They both had a small platform with a chair on it.
"Here is your next Challenge." Tiny said. "We will be doing an experiment on how much well you know your tribemates. We will have six rounds where each of you will sit in the chair and I will ask a question about your respective home lives with one of you guys answering A and B. There will be NO conferring If you are right, you will score a point. The team with the most points out of the round wins it. The tribe that wins the most rounds wins Reward. Want to know what you are playing for?"
Everyone nodded.
"A nice picnic. Full of goodies for the entire tribe. Pizza. Hamburgers. Cola. Cake." Tiny said making a few people's mouths water. "Worth playing for?"
Everyone nodded.
"Good, now Byakko, you have one extra member." Tiny said. "Who will be sitting out?"
"I shall." Bianna said holding up her hand.
"All right. Bianna, come over here." Tiny said. "As for the rest of you, we will draw for spots."
(Later)
Mami and Anke both sat comfortably in their seats getting ready for the Challenge.
"All right. This Challenge has officially started." Tiny said. "All right, Byakko always goes first so let's ask a question about Mami. What is her stage name? A. Hanabi or B. Hanako?"
It didn't take that long before Byakko brought up their cards. Though some were slower were others.
"So Malletman, Spencer, Kenny and Lillian chose A while Le Cock chose B." Tiny said. "Mami, what is the correct answer?"
The rock star merely smirked. "It is Hanabi."
"Which means because of Malletman, Spencer, Kenny and Lillian, Byakko gets 4 points for this round." Tiny said.
"How ironic that the celebrity got the question about a stage name wrong?" Lillian said smirking at Le Cock.
"Hey, I am still working on the worldwide tour!" The rooster snapped.
"All right. Now Genbu, here is the question about Anke?" Tiny asked. "Which place has Anke had always wanted to visit? A. Cobalt Caverns or B. Jumble Jungle?"
The others took a bit longer to do as they held up their cards a little slower than others.
"So Angelo, Francesca and Kira held up A while Charlie and Verona held up B. Which means the first round automatically goes to Byakko. They lead 1-0." Tiny said. "Incidentally, how about you tell them the correct answer?"
The monkey nodded. "It is Cobalt Caverns."
"She likes shiny things and Cobalt Caverns is FULL of shiny gems." Angelo supplied.
Charlie looked in Angelo in disbelief. "Seriously? Well, I know what place I ALWAYS wanted to visit!"
Verona just rolled her eyes.
(Later)
Le Cock and Angelo sat in their chairs.
"All right. Here is the question for Le Cock, Byakko." Tiny said. "What is Le Cock's favourite type of wine? A. Red or B. White?"
The question was a little harder but they had managed to all lift up their responses.
"Now Malletman, Spencer and Mami said A while Kenny and Lillian said B." Tiny said. "Le Cock, what is the correct answer?"
"It is White Wine…" The lute player looking disappointed by how low scoring his tribe was. "It is only the drink of people like musicians like oui!"
"And how the hell are WE supposed to know that?" Spencer asked in disbelief. "We are all underage!"
"And I can't drink!" Malletman pointed out. "Literally!"
"Anyway, thanks to Kenny and Lillian, Byakko had scored two points." Tiny said. "Genbu, is the question for Angelo? What is the name of Angelo's car? A. Daybreak or B. Sunrise?"
Quite a few people actually taking that long to answer.
"Okay, Charlie and Verona held up A while Francesca, Kira and Anke held up B." Tiny said. "Angelo, what is the correct answer?"
The cowboy smirked. "It is indeed, Sunrise."
"Which means Francesca, Kira and Anke scores three points for Genbu meaning they won the round." Tiny said. "We are tied 1-1."
"Sunrise? You couldn't give your car a cooler name?" Charlie asked in disbelief.
"No wonder that Victoria woman is so snarky…" Verona grumbled.
(Later)
Next up was Malletman and Francesca.
"All right, Byakko, here is the question for Malletman." Tiny said. "Who does Malletman used to have a crush on? A. Roll or B. Splash Woman?"
Byakko actually had to think about this. They then raised up their answers though they didn't looked that confident.
"All right, Kenny, Le Cock and Lillian raised up A while Spencer and Mami raised up B." Tiny said. "Malletman, what is the correct answer?"
"It is Splash Woman I used to have a crush on…" The robot lamented upset by low scoring they went.
"Which means Spencer and Mami scored two points for Byakko." Tiny said.
"Wait. Isn't Splash Woman EVIL?" Lillian asked in disbelief.
"No, just manipulated. The plot of her debut game was that…" Malletman said before realizing something. "Wait a second? Spencer, Mami, are you saying that you think that I was crushing on an EVIL robot!?"
Spencer and Mami quickly shifted their eyes from left and right nervously.
"Okkkkkay. Genbu, you are next with Francesca." Tiny said. "Which real-life woman does Francesca idolizes? A. Joan of Arc or B. Susan B. Anthony?"
The others slowly raised their answers after a good think.
"Okay, Angelo, Charlie and Anke said A while Verona and Kira said B." Tiny said. "Francesca, what is the correct answer?"
"It is Susan B. Anthony." The wrestler smirked.
"Which means Verona and Kira scored two points tying with Byakko." Tiny said. "Nobody wins this round."
"Who is Susan B. Anthony?" Anke asked tilting her head.
"The woman who set the bar for feminism." Francesca smirked. "I collect a lot of her coins."
"Oh, does that mean you are also a blonde?" Angelo asked.
"AND wear a skintight jumpsuit?" Charlie quizzed with a grin.
Francesca's smirk vanished.
(Later)
Next up were Kenny and Charlie.
"All right, next question is Kenny, Byakko." Tiny said. "Which region is Kenny from? A. Johto or B. Kanto?"
Quite a few people had to think before raising their answers.
"Okay, Malletman and Le Cock held up A while Spencer, Mami and Lillian held up B." Tiny said. "Kenny, what is the correct answer?"
"It is Kanto. Particularly in Saffron City." The psychic smiled.
"Which means Spencer, Mami and Lillian scores three points for Byakko." Tiny said.
"Ugh… I expected to be concerned about getting white feathers when my voice dies down…" Le Cock muttered. "NOT because I don't know what in the world those worlds are."
"Next question is for Charlie, Genbu." Tiny said. "What profession is Charlie's father in? A. A business CEO or. B. A Motocross driver?"
Almost immediately, everyone held up their answer.
"Wow, EVERYONE held up B." Tiny said. "Charlie, what is the correct answer?"
The punk winced before looking to the side. "My old man… Is a CEO…"
Everyone's eyes widened at this.
"WHAT!?" Verona exclaimed.
"And I thought Angelo being related to Victoria was a mind screw." Francesca agreed.
"Which means none of you gets a point. Byakko wins this round leading 2-1. If Byakko wins the next round, they win Reward." Tiny said. "All right, let's get ready for the next round!"
"No, no, no! You are not getting away that easily!" Spencer said in disbelief. "I can't be the only one wondering how someone like Charlie could be born with a presumably very rich family!"
Charlie just let out a deep sigh of exasperation.
(Later)
Next up was Spencer and Verona.
"All right, Spencer. It is your turn for Byakko to answer." Tiny said. "Byakko, besides PE, what grade is Spencer doing horribly in? A) Art or B) Music?"
Everyone raised their answers feeling a bit confident about the question.
"All right, Lillian held up A while Malletman, Kenny, Mami and Le Cock held up B." Tiny said. "Spencer, what is the correct answer?"
"It is Music. I am doing quite poorly in it." Spencer said.
"Which means Malletman, Kenny, Mami and Le Cock score four points for Byakko." Tiny said.
Le Cock raised a non-existent eyebrow. "Um, Lillian, don't mean to be a Negative Ned but…"
"I know, I know…" The fairy said hitting her head with her card. "I shouldn't be the only one to get Spencer's question wrong if I want to impress him…"
"All right, Genbu, if you have to get four votes or a perfect score here or else Byakko wins Reward." Tiny said.
Everyone nodded.
"Good, now. For Verona, which type of zombie does she hates more. A) Boomer or B) Hunter?" Tiny asked.
Everyone thought carefully about the vote knowing that they had to think carefully if they want to win this Challenge. Soon, they all raised their answers.
Charlie and Anke held up A and Angelo, Francesca and Verona held up B.
"You are not in unison." Tiny said. "BYAKKO WINS REWARD!"
Byakko started to cheer up as Genbu looked defeated.
"I didn't even get to whine…" Verona muttered.
(Later)
"Congratulations, Byakko. You had won a nice picnic for your tribe. It will be there when you get back to camp." Tiny said. He then turned to Genbu. "Genbu, I am sorry but I got nothing for you. You may head back to camp."
(Byakko Tribe)
The Byakko walked back to camp to see a large picnic at camp.
"Oh man! It is BIGGER than I was hoping for!" Spencer said.
"I'll say! Let's dig in!" Mami grinned.
"Yeah!" Lillian said as everyone but the organics ran over.
"I am not the gluttonous type but there are only so many days you could go without decent food. Just like with everyone else, I just couldn't help running over to dig in." Kenny smiled. "Especially after the sudden spike in tension yesterday."
"All right, you guys. Just remember that there are plenty for everyone." Bianna said.
"Okay!" The others said.
"Well, they seem happy." Malletman said with an unseen smile.
"Indeed, it is nice to see that winning this Challenge had boasted up our morale." Bianna nodded.
Malletman crossed his arms. "Well, seeing that we are all alone…"
Bianna looked up. "Yes?"
Malletman looked at Bianna with a determined look on his face.
"Have you thought about my alliance idea?" He said.
"I know that I had already spoken with Bianna about it but I don't think I mostly convinced her to have her and Kenny align with me, Spencer and Mami." Malletman said. "As a way to atone for being an insensitive jerk about not keeping Sugar."
Bianna paused at this. "Well, I admit that your alliance idea is sounding more and more plausible with Drow leaving seeing we would be putting Lillian and Le Cock in the minority but…"
"But?" Malletman frowned.
"How am I going to trust you as an ally?" Bianna asked.
Malletman blinked twice. "Come again?"
"You are only doing this to make it up to Mami and Spencer for what you did to Sugar." Bianna said.
"Um, is that a bad thing?" Malletman asked.
"No… Well, not what you are doing." Bianna said. "You are pretty much putting your loyalties to them and them alone. What about me and Kenny?"
"Hey, we need your votes! You are just as valuable to us!" Malletman insisted.
"A reasonable argument, I admit…" Bianna said crossing her arms.
"Look, I will promise to look after you and Kenny just as much as I will look after Mami and Spencer." Malletman said.
Bianna raised a non-existent eyebrow. "Oh, how?"
"I…" Malletman said before sighing. "I can't show it right now. Not with the topic coming out of the blue."
Bianna nodded her head. "All right. Another reasonable argument. Very well. I will at least give you until Le Cock is gone to show how well you could keep up your promise."
"Thank you…" Malletman said.
"Trust is a major issue in this game so I need to trust Malletman's trust and see if he was worthy of my vote." Bianna explained. "I don't want to go into the merge in an alliance of five with me in the minority of it."
(Genbu Tribe)
Despite losing a valuable Challenge, things pretty much went back to normal. And by normal, was having the majority stalking the minority alliance.
This time, Angelo and Francesca was following Kira with Verona following Charlie and Anke looking for the Hidden Immunity Idol.
"You really are determined not to let us find the Hidden Immunity Idol, aren't you?" Kira asked.
"Sorry." Francesca shrugged.
Kira continued walking on with Angelo and Francesca following her. "Is it part of your feminism?"
Francesca raised an eyebrow. "Hm?"
"Keeping me from finding the Hidden Immunity Idol." Kira said.
Francesca blinked twice. "Um, finding the Hidden Immunity Idol has nothing to do with feminism. It is just common sense."
"Oh, I see. So you are trying to regain your feminism in another way." Kira said.
Francesca and Angelo immediately stopped in their tracks completely stumped. Francesca looked at Angelo who shrugged.
"Wait, hold on. What are you talking about?" Francesca said running after Kira.
Kira turned around. "Isn't it obvious? You are trying to get over being Angelo's lap dog."
Francesca and Angelo's eyes bugged out at this.
"What!?"
"As much as I like to be positive, there is no other way around it. Unless we have an early merge or something like that, Charlie and I are doomed because we can't find the Hidden Immunity Idol without the others finding out." Kira said. She then smiled. "In that case, might as well have a bit of fun."
"Now hold on!" Francesca said stepping forward narrowing her eyes. "How am I Angelo's lapdog?"
"Well, Anke is in your alliance, isn't she?" Kira asked.
Angelo blinked twice. "What does SHE have to do with anything?"
"Easy. You had allowed Anke to join you and Francesca." Kira said. "…Without Francesca's consent at all. And don't try to deny this. I saw the whole thing along with Charlie. And I think Verona has as well."
Angelo narrowed his eyes. "And how does THAT make Francesca my lapdog?"
"I noticed that you didn't do a single thing to say otherwise." Kira said crossing her arms.
"Now hold on! I did it because Anke was all alone! She needed an alliance!" Angelo scolded.
"So? You still invited her without Francesca's permission." Kira said. "In fact, the reason you let Verona, someone you are bound to dislike because Francesca did the same thing to you and you can't say a thing because you already done the same thing!"
Angelo and Francesca's eyes widened before looking at each other. They then narrowed their eyes before glaring back at Kira.
"Have you been spying on us?" Francesca accused.
"No." Kira said. "But judging by your reaction, I take it that I am right, correct?"
Francesca's eyes widened before scoffing and looking to the side. "Whatever!"
"Anyway, going back on topic, you did NOTHING to stop Angelo from aligning with Anke." Kira said. "What kind of strong, independent woman would let a man let all over let her like that?"
"Now hold it right there!" Angelo snarled stepping forward.
"I was indifferent on Kira even though I can't say I ever liked her. But what she had said was not only cruel but a load of bull!" Angelo growled. "Francesca isn't my lapdog! She is my friend! I only did it because I thought that after hearing about Anke's problem, she would see the way I do!"
The dark-skinned man got into Kira's face. "Now listen here, I do not see Francesca as a lapdog at all. She is my friend. And further, I do NOT treat women like that. In fact, I find it despicable!"
"Oh?" Kira asked.
"Yes, ya say that I don't see Francesca as a strong woman because I tend to do things without her consent." Angelo scolded. "Truth be told, I do that to EVERYBODY."
Francesca's eyes widened at this.
"Really?" Kira asked.
"Yes, I had always done things like this and I had always been called out on it! By people of different gender, age, race, hell even species!" Angelo snapped. "I don't do it because I disrespect anyone, I do it because I follow my own path! And I still see Francesca as a strong woman!"
Kira paused for a moment. She then turned around and walked off. "All right. If you are that easily swayed that I won't let you get deluded in your own words!"
"It is NOT deluded!" Angelo scolded before growling. "Well, at least she is next."
"Um, yeah?" Francesca asked.
Angelo raised an eyebrow before putting a hand on Francesca's shoulder. "Hey, don't listen to her. She is probably just bitter that she is in the minority and is taking out her anger at us."
"Um, right. Or she is just trying to put a stake between our alliance." Francesca said.
"Exactly! Don't listen to her!" Angelo nodded with a grin. "Now, come on. Let's stop her from finding the Idol."
With that, he walked off. Francesca then followed with her head down.
"Angelo is right. Kira is just trying to get into my head. Mess up my mind and try to cause drama in our alliance." Francesca said. She then narrowed her eyes. "However, Kira is also right. I am a wrestler. I shouldn't blindly follow some "free spirit" just because he is an asset. In fact, why should I worry about assets anymore? We are approaching the merge soon! I should be thinking about threats!"
(Day 17; Byakko Tribe)
Lillian and Le Cock walked over to Spencer.
"Well, how is Mami doing?" Le Cock asked.
Spencer crossed his arms as he let out a sigh. "Well, she is not casting me nasty glares if THAT is what you are asking…"
Le Cock slumped his shoulders. "Yes, that is what I meant…"
"Mami had been really… Moody ever since she found out the real reason behind Robert's elimination. I knew she wouldn't be happy about finding out the truth but sheesh!" Spencer winced. "Fortunately, she came to telling me how she let her emotions out at the time and calm down. Still, I don't think she had forgotten about this.
"All right. Here is the good news. She had finally calmed down and said that she will align with you two." The nerd said.
"Sweet!" Lillian smiled. She then frowned. "But I take it the bad news is that she is STILL upset about what happened."
"In the world had happened, anyway?" Le Cock asked crossing his arms. "I hope you didn't do anything to that girl's feelings!"
"No! Well, yes." Spencer said before sighing. "Look, it is an original Byakko thing, you wouldn't understand."
Lillian paused for a moment. "Did you explain your reasoning to Mami?"
"Yes, even that was LITERALLY the first thing I did after she dragged me off away from you guys!" Spencer agreed.
"And she is still upset?" Lillian asked.
"Yes…" Spencer sighed.
Lillian bit her lip.
"If that is the case… Why are you aligned with her?"
Spencer slowly raised his head as Le Cock turned his head towards Lillian.
"Huh?" Spencer asked.
"Mami absolutely have some issues. If you have good reasoning for what you are doing and she is STILL upset then she is beyond help." Lillian said shaking her head. "Not a good reason to stay friends with let alone be aligned in hopes of winning a million dollars."
Le Cock's eyes widened at this. "E-Excuse me?"
"Hold on. I am not going to dump her over one thing I don't like." Spencer said.
"I suppose. It is just that you think she would have cooled down about it by now." Lillian frowned. "Especially whatever you did had a possibility for a good alliance."
Spencer paused. "Even if I wanted to drop her, now is the worst time to do so."
"Of course! Of course! I am not saying we should vote her out!" Lillian said. "I am just saying you should be wary of her!"
Spencer nodded his head. "You're right. Thank you. I am going to get treemail."
"Okay, we will wait at camp." Lillian said.
With that, they went their separate ways. However, Le Cock followed Lillian not looking happy.
"What was that about?" Le Cock asked.
"What was what about?" Lillian asked.
"Why did you say things like that? You are going to ruin Spencer and Mami's friendship!" Le Cock said.
Lillian smirked. "I do."
Le Cock's eyes bugged out behind his shades. "Excusez moi!? Lillian!?"
Lillian looked down at Le Cock with a serious look on her face.
"This is war, Le Cock!"
"Oh, come on! Isn't it obvious? Mami has a crush on Spencer and as much as I hate to admit it, there may be a small chance that he would return her feelings." Lillian said sternly crossing her arms. "I was hoping that he and Mami were just friends but my hopes had been dashed the moment Mami dragged Spencer away from me. Well, tough luck, toots! You may had been with him first but I am NOT Galia!"
"Didn't you think it was weird for Mami to drag Spencer away and then have a fight?" The green-haired asked.
"Um, yes? It was quite random." Le Cock agreed.
"Random nothing? Mami just doesn't want to align with someone who is a threat into stealing Spencer away from him!" Lillian said.
Le Cock's eyes widened. "P-Pardon?"
"Don't be so naïve, Le Cock!" Lillian scolded. "There is no other reason why Mami would act like that!"
"B-But… If that is the case, then you shouldn't butt in!" Le Cock said.
"It is just like I said, Le Cock!" Lillian said. "Love is war, baby!"
"But…" Le Cock started.
"I am sorry. I know that you are a lover but not a fighter but I am not putting away my cannons and Mami isn't either!" Lillian said clenching her fist. "There is no way we could get through this without blood spilling."
"Lillian, I…" Le Cock said.
"Treemail!" Spencer said walking into camp
"Oh, goody! Time to vent out my rage in a Challenge!" Lillian said as everyone gathered around except Le Cock. "What does it say?"
"It says "Are you feeling lucky?" Spencer asked.
This made everyone groaned.
"A luck-based Challenge?" Malletman complained. "Really?"
"Indeed… There is literally no strength, skill and smarts but into it." Bianna said. "You could win just by doing absolutely nothing."
"I HATE luck Challenges. You could be playing against a bunch of toddlers and you could still lose by a landslide." Malletman said dropping his arms. "Yeah, I like to lose because we aren't strong or smart enough thank you very much!"
(Immunity Challenge)
Both tribes made their way to their respective mats.
"Welcome, Survivors. Are you ready for your next Challenge?" Tiny asked. Everyone nodded their heads. "Good. Take a look."
Everyone looked to see some kind of giant construction holding quite a lot of coconuts. Attached to it were twelve ropes.
"All right, here is your next Challenge." Tiny said. "You will be taking turns pulling on a string. Said string will open a certain number of coconuts. Your goal will be to release the FEW amounts of coconuts on your turn. The tribe with the least amount of coconuts wins Immunity. Also, I knew fully well which rope releases a certain number of coconuts."
Everyone looked at each other not looking confident in the slightest.
"Now this is arguably a useless action but Byakko has one extra player and you have to sit them out." Tiny said. "Who are you sitting out?"
"I am sitting out." Mami groaned. "I am getting bad memories of Mario Party."
"All right, Mami, take a seat next to me." Tiny smiled. "As for the rest of you, we will draw for spots."
(Later)
"All right, Genbu had won the coin toss and had chosen to go first." Tiny said. "Which means Anke, as the first person in the Genbu line, you are up first."
The monkey nodded her head before moving over wondering which string to pull. With twelve different strings, she just shrugged and walked over pulling on one.
This released quite a few coconuts.
"Anke, you had released seventeen coconuts." Tiny said.
"That's good, right?" The monkey asked.
Tiny didn't answer. "All right, Kenny, it is your turn."
The Pokemon trainer shrugged his shoulders before walking over wondering what he should pull. After finally choosing one, he pulled on it.
This released almost the same amount of coconuts as Anke.
"Kenny, you had released twenty-one coconuts." Tiny said. "Genbu leads 17-21."
"Well, the lead is NOT too far." The psychic said walking off.
"Charlie, it is your turn."
The green-haired man gulped nervously knowing that this was his chance to save himself and Kira so he had to give the right choice. Letting out a deep sigh, he pulled on a string.
Only to release a LOT of coconuts.
Charlie's eyes widened before collapsing on his knees. "Aww, come on! No, no, no!"
"Charlie, you had released forty-one coconuts." Tiny said. "Byakko leads 21-58."
"You're useless, Charlie…" Verona said shaking her head in exasperation.
The punk glared at Verona. "Go to hell, Verona!"
"Lillian, it is your turn."
The fairy flew over looking back and forth between the strings trying to figure which one to pull. Giving a shrug, she went over to one and pulled it knowing that she couldn't get more than Charlie did.
A few coconuts were then released.
"Lillian, you had released twenty-six coconuts." Tiny said. "Byakko still leads 47-58."
Lillian just shrugged. "Oh well. Still better than Charlie."
"Oh, sure, rub it in!" Charlie growled.
"Francesca, it is your turn."
The wrestler frowned walking over not liking the luck her tribe was having so far. Deciding to get it over it, she walked over to a string on pulled on it.
This released some more coconuts.
"Francesca, you had released fifteen coconuts." Tiny said. "Byakko still leads 47-73."
"Well, it could have been worse…" Francesca muttered.
"Malletman, it is your turn."
The robot didn't even stopped to think knowing it would be absolutely pointless as he went over to a rope and pulled on it.
This released almost as much coconuts as Charlie. Malletman slumped his shoulders in defeat.
"Malletman, you had released forty-five coconuts." Tiny said. "Genbu leads 73-92."
"Well, at least I don't have Verona on my tribe." Malletman muttered.
"And what is THAT supposed to mean?" Verona roared angrily.
"Calm down, Verona. It is your turn." Tiny said.
The zombie-slayer muttered underneath her breath before walking over to the string still upset over what Malletman said and pulled on it.
This released quite a lot of coconuts much to her dismay.
"Verona, you had released thirty coconuts." Tiny said. "Byakko leads 92-103."
"You're useless, Verona…" Charlie said purposely mimicking Verona's voice.
"Shut the hell up!" Verona roared storming off. "This is bull! Strong players are being made like liabilities just because of stupid luck!"
Tiny shook his head. "Le Cock, it is your turn."
The Frenchman nodded before proudly marching over to a string and pulling on it.
This had released just a few coconuts.
"Le Cock, you had released eleven coconuts." Tiny said. "We are now tied at 103-all."
"Heh, I knew my luck with the spotlight will save us!" Le Cock grinned.
"This is just painful…" Verona said holding her head.
"Angelo, it is your turn."
The cowboy nodded before making his way over. Seeing that he literally had only four strings to pull on, he shrugged before pulling on it.
Then, three coconuts came out.
"Angelo, you had released three coconuts." Tiny said. "Byakko leads 103-106."
"Yee-haw! We'll take it!" Angelo said jumping in the air and the others cheered at this turn of events.
"Spencer, it is your turn."
The green-clad teen stepped over wishing that he had an earlier draw so that so much pressure wouldn't put on him. Giving a sigh, he pulled on the string.
This released quite a few coconuts.
"Spencer, you had released nineteen coconuts." Tiny said. "Genbu leads 106-122."
"This sucks…" Spencer said walking off and shaking his head.
"Kira, it is your turn. You have one of two strings to pull from. If you get fifteen coconuts or less, your tribe wins Immunity."
The dark-haired girl nodded before walking over looking back and forth between the two strings. Nodding her head, she had walked over to one and pulled it.
This released a good number of coconuts.
"Kira, you had released twenty-seven coconuts." Tiny said. "Byakko leads 122-133."
"Oh well…" Kira said shrugging while Genbu looked upset.
"Bianna, you get the last string so pull it. Remember, you have to get ten coconuts or less to win Immunity."
The robot nodded before making her way over to the string. Everyone looked with crossed fingers hoping for the best as she pulled it.
Then, very few coconuts came out.
"That was five coconuts…" Tiny said. "BYAKKO WINS IMMUNITY!"
Everyone cheered in triumph as Genbu looked in defeat and disgust.
(Later)
"Congratulations, Byakko, you had won Immunity granting you safety for another day." Tiny said. He then turned to Genbu. "As for you, Genbu. You have a date with me at Tribal Council where one of you WILL leave this game. You have all day to figure out who it is. You may head back to camp."
(Genbu Tribe)
"Ugh… We lost today's Challenge. And all because of that stupid luck Challenge. I know luck is pretty much a factor in every Survivor season but to have NOTHING but luck is idiotic." Verona said holding her head. "The only redeeming factor about this is that we can vote off Charlie or Kira getting rid of one more person who may find the Immunity Idol before us."
Charlie and Kira were both talking to each other wondering about what they should do. While they were doing so, Francesca and Verona were following them.
"Well, this sucks." Charlie whispered to Kira so that Francesca and Verona wouldn't hear them. "We can't even strategize with each other out loud."
"Agreed. They won't let us see other people alone." The high-school student lamented.
"Well, now what?" Charlie asked. "We can't just ask somebody to betray their ally when said ally is standing right next to them."
Kira paused looking in thought. "Maybe we don't have to."
"Um, what do you mean by that?" Charlie asked not liking where this was going.
"Maybe there is a way to get the majority to backstab each other without literally going around people's backs." Kira said. "Come on. Let's go find Angelo and Anke. I am sure Francesca and Verona would follow us."
Charlie blinked twice behind his shades. "Oh boy…"
"The thing with Kira is… Well, I genuinely think she is a demon in human skin. She is just so… Remorseless. She talked about how she got Galia to quit as if it was an everyday thing." Charlie said looking around. "I was initially against Kira talking because she would probably not get us out of the hole but actually dig us deeper."
Soon, the four had found Angelo and Anke searching for the hidden Immunity Idol.
"Oh, Angelo, Anke." Kira said. "STILL looking for the Immunity Idol, I see."
"More or less." The cowboy said.
"Goodness, you are one strong alliance." Kira said.
"Yep! We had been united based off of wanting to befriend each other!" Anke smiled.
Kira tilted her head to the side. "Hmm… That's weird."
Anke's smile vanished. "What is?"
"It is just that… I don't think Francesca and Verona give a crap about you." Kira said.
Everyone's eyes widened at this.
"W-What?" Anke asked appalled.
"Now hold on! Don't put words in our mouths!" Francesca snapped.
"Oh? Did you not want Anke in your alliance at all?" Kira asked.
"That is not the same giving not caring about her!" Francesca scolded.
"Wait… You mean you NEVER wanted to befriend me?" Anke asked.
Francesca's eyes bugged out at this. "What? NO! I never said that!"
"I don't know. While I admit not wanting someone in an alliance and not wanting to befriend someone are two completely different things, it is not by much." Kira pointed out before looking down at Anke. "In fact, Francesca also doesn't like Angelo because she BLACKMAILED him."
"What?" The monkey gasped before looking at Francesca. "Is this true?"
"No!" The brunette insisted.
Verona just shook her head before placing her arm on Francesca's shoulder. "Might as well face facts, Francesca. We had been caught."
"Verona, what are you…" Francesca started.
Angelo narrowed his eyes. "Don't you dare…"
"Anke, it is true. Angelo had been blackmailed into letting me into the alliance because Francesca wanted me seeing that you were put into the alliance without Francesca's permission."
"W-What?" The pink-clad girl said.
"You mean the reason we are keeping Verona… Someone who is giving me nightmares of Bertha… Is because of me?" Anke asked looking hurt and getting teary-eyed. "Oh, Angelo… I didn't know that I was the reason why you are okay with having her in our alliance. Your heart must be hurting so much."
"Verona, how could you let yourself be easily manipulated!?" Francesca said in disbelief.
"Easily manipulated? I didn't say that because I agree with Kira." Verona shrugged. "It is just obvious I am here because of Anke."
"Woman, I outta take my boot to that remorseless face on yours!" Angelo roared making the others gasp.
Verona stepped back surprised before narrowing her eyes. "H-How dare you!?"
"Verona, please don't be mad at Angelo." Kira said. "He is just upset that you are constricting his free spirit."
"And why not?" The curly-haired woman said stepping in Angelo's face waving her finger at him. "Now you listen here! You are in an ALLIANCE! And in an alliance, you have to do things other people do! Not because you can't do it yourself!"
Angelo angrily slapped the hand away. "Get off your high-horse, Verona! I didn't verbally attack ya because ya are constrictin' me! I attacked you because you have the personality of a cobra's venom!"
"Same thing, right?" Verona asked. "What with my "constricting" actions."
"No, it isn't!" Angelo scolded.
"I'll be honest. The one thing Victoria and me have in common. We both have quite the temper and when the flame is lit, we tend to do and say irrational things." Angelo admitted. He then scowled. "But Verona… Ugh, that woman! She is taking her "actual survivor" status way too far if she thinks she could just say things like that out of the blue!"
"Angelo, please… I am fine…" Anke said looking down trying her best to stop tears.
"No, you are not." The cowboy said crouching down. His face then softened. "I am sorry that ya had to see that but Verona was being a jerk and completely insensitive to your feelings."
"Don't you dare refer me in the third-person speech! I am right here!" Verona roared. "Also, what about MY feelings!? Do you think I was not offended when you said you wanted to KICK ME IN THE FACE!"
"Both of you, stop it!" Francesca scolded. "You are both acting like children!"
"Francesca, you are too good for this alliance. Anke, you are not good enough for this alliance. Angelo, don't let her control you. Verona, show him who is boss." Kira said.
Francesca growled before glaring at Kira. "SHUT THE HELL UP, KIRA!"
"Anddddddd there goes your status as the only sane one of this tribe." The bespectacled girl said.
Charlie had completely stayed quiet the whole time and for good reason. He looked absolutely terrified by what was going on.
"This is too easy. It is like I was playing with grade-school students. All I want to do is push their buttons and they are a complete trainwreck." Kira smirked. "My strategy is to manipulate the feelings of the majority alliance and they will go after each other like a bunch of wild dogs."
(Tribal Council)
The six people had made their way over to Tribal Council where Tiny was waiting.
"Welcome, Genbu tribe." Tiny said. "Take a seat."
Everyone obliged.
"So, Verona, how did you react to Galia quitting?" Tiny asked.
The brunette rolled her eyes. "Honestly, I am not surprised at all. In fact, I AM surprised that I didn't see it coming. She is such a weak-hearted woman."
"But isn't this your ally? And she said that she was really remorseful for whatever she did to you."
"So? That is still the fact she betrayed my trust." Verona said crossing her arms. "The only positive thing I could say about her is that she realized how much of a burden she was to everyone."
Angelo growled making his teeth create an unsatisfying sound.
"Angelo, this angers you?" Tiny said.
"Damn straight it did! All Galia did was cast a hinky vote for Kira just so she could cushion the vote-off of Sugar!" The dark-skinned man growled. "Verona is acting like Galia committed murder!"
"This is a game of trust, Angelo. How could you trust somebody who goes off and does whatever they want?" Verona corrected.
"Ya STILL acted out of context!" Angelo scolded.
"Oh, and like you didn't earlier today?" Verona asked putting her hands on her hips.
"That is completely different!" Angelo snapped.
"Calm down, you two!" Tiny scolded. "Francesca, what is Verona talking about when she said Angelo acted out of context."
The brunette sighed as she shook her head. "Verona revealed to Anke that the reason Verona was in the alliance was because she and I blackmailed Angelo to letting her stay."
"What?" Tiny asked.
"But I didn't do it out of spite!" Francesca insisted. "I wanted someone who would be a big asset but I knew that their personalities would clash with each other so I guilt-tripped Angelo into letting Verona into the group."
She then turned to Anke.
"See, Anke? This isn't about you being a burden and unlikable. This is about Angelo not practicing what he preached." Francesca said.
"I guess…" The monkey said.
"Anke, what is your stance on the whole thing?" Tiny asked.
"It is just that I felt responsible for Angelo inviting he doesn't like into the alliance." Anke said. "He must be hurting really bad."
"Hey, screw you too, kid." Verona muttered.
"Okay, what was THAT for!?" Angelo snapped.
"She is making me sound like cancer personified!" Verona insisted. "There is no way I am not going to lie down and let her talk smack about me!"
"Now, now." Tiny said. "Kira, what do you think about this argument?"
"It shows how despite they are aligned and worked together to stop me and Charlie from hiding the Hidden Immunity Idol, they are definitely not in sync." The high-school student said. "Perhaps they would be better off with new allies."
"I see. Charlie, how is this vote is going to go?" Tiny asked.
"Well, that's easy, man. It will…" The green-haired man grinned before sighing. "I don't have the slightest idea…"
"Okkkkkkay, it is time to vote." Tiny said. "Francesca, you are up."
The brunette woman got up shaking in hopelessness. She wasted no time rushing over to the voting area and writing down a name just wanting to get this over with.
Angelo stomped over without his usual grin for once. Putting his cowboy hat over his fierce glare, he snatched the pen. "Your heart is without a doubt as black as coal."
Kira giggled a bit at the conflict she started as she walked over. She then picked up the pen and took off the cap. "Time to start the beginning of the end."
Charlie fidgeted with his shades while scratching his head trying to figure out what he should. "Should I or shouldn't I?"
Verona growled as she stomped over making feral noises. She snatched the pen and nearly broke it writing down a name. "I take Hunters and Boomers over you any day of the week!"
Anke at first walked over with her head. Suddenly, she shot her head up looking determined rushing over and stepping on the stool taking the pen writing it a name.
She then bounded up as Tiny got up.
"I'll get the votes."
A couple of people cast each other nasty votes as Tiny returned.
"I'll read them out."
"First vote, Verona."
Verona growled crossing her arms.
"Second vote, Verona. Two votes, Verona."
Verona tapped her finger against her shoulder.
"Third vote, Kira. Two votes, Verona. One vote, Kira."
Kira raised an eyebrow.
"Fourth vote, Kira. Two votes, Verona. Two votes, Kira."
Kira looked a bit surprised.
"Fifth vote, Kira. Three votes, Kira. Two votes, Verona. One vote left."
Kira crossed her arms with a grumpy look on her face.
"Seventh person voted out of Survivor…"
Nobody looked eager.
"…Is Kira."
Angelo, Verona, Francesca and Anke all looked happy at this. Charlie just had a blank look on his face.
"Kira, you have to bring me your torch."
The high-school student got up from her seat glaring at the majority. "You all made up at the last second? How disappointingly cliché."
She then took her torch and made her way over to Tiny placing her torch in front of her.
"Kira, the tribe has spoken." Tiny said putting his snuffer over the flame extinguishing it. "You may now go."
"Defeated by the power of friendship. Bleh." Kira said walking off while sticking out her tongue.
Tiny watched her leave before turning to the others. "So despite there are been some vocal conflicts inside of the majority alliance, you had still voted out someone from the minority. You guys must be thicker than you look. But let's see how long it would last. You may head back to camp."
The tribe gathered up their torches and head back to camp. Charlie brought up the rear looking worried. Despite that huge fight Kira started between the majority alliance, she was still voted out. Which means if he ever wants to be able to make merge, he need to put his muscle into the Challenges because other than winning Immunity, the Idol was his last hope.
"What a cliché rip. I had planted seeds in all four of the majority alliance so that they would drift apart and cast hinky votes against each other out of spite." Kira said crossing her arms looking annoyed. "But nooo, they just had to make up over some random reason. But whatever, I had more than enough fun while it lasted. That fight was without a doubt the highlight of my experience."
RESULTS
Kira: Angelo, Anke, Francesca, Verona.
Verona: Charlie, Kira.
And thus Kira have left with a bang and HOW! She is without a doubt one of my favourite people to write for. She was a griefer who speaks softly and knows exactly which buttons to push. The best part about her is that she could had easily been an OTTNN5 villain but while I had given her a very visible edit, she was not a screen-hog.
NOTE: Kira was originally going to make jury in an early draft. But that idea was scrapped because I was worried on her being an uber-villain if she lasted that long.
