Previously on, Survivor,
The vote that sent home NiGHTS and Lobo was lingering deep on everyone's minds, with Midna and No-Face feeling alone and betrayed, and Edward feeling bad. One alliance not feeling bad was the Bad Girl's Syndicate, which had all the power. But cracks could be seen forming, as Pepper wanted to bring Skarlet and Jacques into the Final 3, but Skarlet had other plans.
While Kasumi and Jacques were talking about the future in their alliance goals, disaster struck for the Bad Girls Syndicate, as Skarlet was stung suddenly by a scorpion. It proved too fatal for her, as it was required she leave the game for medical attention. Skarlet would join the jury as it's first member.
Before the reward challenge took place, Jeff revealed the Twin Twist, and due to Skarlet's sudden evacuation, Ben, Bill's twin, was granted access into the game, and placed on Ontar. Due to Rarity possessing the yellow coin, the tribes stayed the same, and Midna took her spot at Prison Island. After the chaos had settled, Ontar won the reward challenge, winning a tray of deserts.
At Prison Island, having no idea about the Twin Twist or Skarlet's confirmed evacuation, Midna's mind was still set on eliminating Kasumi, and grabbed the red Knuckles coin, ready to make the move that Lobo failed to do.
The twins brought joy to No-Face, seeing a great opportunity to eliminate Kasumi should Ontar lose the next immunity challenge. He and Rarity both plotted with the twins, and they were on board with his plan. Kasumi, on the other hand, was nervous about the upcoming days.
At the Zeusch side, the remaining members of Bad Girls Syndicate discussed plans for the future. Kasumi and Jacques were going to target No-Face, while Pepper and Batgirl set their sights on Edward and Diddy. Meanwhile, Edward told both twins to listen to him, and heed his advice, as now they were getting stronger as opposing alliances weakened.
At the immunity challenge, the twins planned to throw the challenge in order to send their tribe, Ontar, to tribal council. They succeeded, and Zeusch won immunity once more.
Before tribal council, the two in power were the ones responsible for the tribe's loss; Bill and Ben. On one side, they could eliminate Kasumi, or they could eliminate No-Face. With much scrambling going on, it was anyone's game.
At tribal council, the twins followed through with Edward's plan, and Kasumi was finally voted out of the game, becoming the second member of the jury, and placing Bad Girl's Syndicate in a bad spot. 10 are left, who'll be voted out tonight?
Ontar: Ben, Bill, Jacques "Jeff the Killer", and No-Face
Zeusch: Batgirl, Diddy, Edward, Pepper, and Rarity
Prison Island: Midna
Jury: Skarlet and Kasumi

Ontar Side Day 23
Batgirl and Pepper were sitting by the Ontar shelter, awaiting the return of that tribe. Once they noticed Kasumi was gone, they ran up to Jacques, and pulled him aside.
"Now what do we do?" muttered Batgirl, crossing her arms, "Skarlet's out, Kasumi's been eliminated. They raise you so high... but then things can just... drop to the ground instantly."
"It's not all that bad... hehehehe..." snickered Jacques, "After all.. there are bigger threats then you two lovely ladies..."
"Hehehe... poor Kasumi Goto... she was too used to this game... which was why her sorry ass was carried out by those meddling twins... hehehe... but now it seems Jeffy's game is in danger... that might have to change soon..." - Jeff the Killer
Pepper hopped up onto Batgirl's shoulder, and spoke up, "I ain't giving up! Jacques' right. We aren't the biggest threats in this game. Look at Midna. Look at Edward. Look at... well... Bill and Ben! I'm not going down without a fight, you two. We're gonna need support."
Batgirl sighed, shaking her head, "I hate the idea, but we're going to need Rarity. Look, she and NiGHTS were tight like glue, and guess who's out of the game? She needs a strong ally, and we can give it to her."
"Sounds reasonable... hehehe... so... with that in mind...? Who's our next target?" wondered Jacques.
"Like Pepper said," replied Batgirl, "Midna, Edward, or split the twins up. Edward seems to come from the twins' world, and probably is their leader. Do you realize how powerful he is if that's the case? He's like a polite Godfather to me."
Both Jacques and Pepper nodded at her words.
"Things aren't always what they seem... hehehehe... but perhaps I need to keep myself a little quieter and a little less subtle... especially with this lovely alliance falling apart. After all... I need the money just as much as everyone else... hehehehe..." - Jeff the Killer
Meanwhile, Bill, Ben, and No-Face were talking in the shelter.
"I just wanna say, thank you both for keeping me here," commented No-Face, "It means a lot, and I can actually trust you both."
Bill smiled brightly, "Anything to help! We both saw-"
"-Kasumi as a huge threat in this game!" said Ben, "If she didn't get voted out sooner-"
"-She'd win this whole thing." giggled Bill.
"Last night was nerve wrecking, let me tell you that. But the twins pulled through for me, and here I sit still in the game, and hopefully with an advantage. Midna will pull our asses out of this mess faster then you can say "Crazy 8"." - No-Face
No-Face scratched the back of his head, "Right, well, I haven't really decided on a new target, so... we'll see what happens when the tribes mix up, eh?"
Both Bill and Ben nodded, and watched No-Face walk off.
"We voted Kasumi out because that's what Edward wanted, and both Ben and I had let him down in the past, such as voting Knuckles, Minka, and NiGHTS off previously. But NOW! NOW! We got control of this game, and the four of us are making it to the Finals! Yay for us!" - Bill
– – – – –
Zeusch Side Day 23
Off deep in the jungle, yet not near their banana grove, Batgirl was speaking with Rarity.
"I know we didn't start off on the right foot at the beginning of this game," explained Batgirl, "But I've never really hated you. It's just that people like us don't have much in common."
Rarity nodded, "Quite right, my dear. I find you quite.. errr... tomboyish? Not too interested in fashion with all that... bat-wear."
"We have a challenge coming soon, and we'll be mixed up once more. For me, I need to speak with Rarity now, and then plan after the tribes are mixed up. Pepper, Jacques, and I are losing numbers fast, and it'll only get smaller unless we strengthen the team." - Batgirl
"Right, so... what I wanted to talk to you about is giving you a huge opportunity to go far in this game," explained Batgirl, "We could rally up an alliance of all women to go to the final 3. You, I, and Pepper."
Rarity sat down, seeming interested in this deal, "Go on, miss?"
"There's too many threats, and you yourself are in danger of going home. Your only friend, NiGHTS, is out of the game, and she had a big impact on you staying here, I'm sure," continued Batgirl, "You need close allies. Midna, Edward, No-Face, Diddy? They won't keep you around. Once they got what they needed, they'll send you home."
"You.. can't be serious, darling?" blinked Rarity.
"Oh, I am," replied Batgirl, "Keep playing the way you are, disregard my deal, and your chances go poof. You can make an alliance of 3 become 4 with the help of Jacques. Don't worry about him, he's just a vote we can throw out. You cannot refuse this deal, that's like throwing away one million dollars."
"I will say I do not care for Batgirl. She's more of a brat girl then anything. But she does bring up some good points. Am I nothing but a pawn to Midna and No-Face? Batgirl's right, when NiGHTS was around I felt much safer, since I knew she'd keep me safe." - Rarity
"Think about it, Rarity, your game is just in jeopardy as mine is." finished Batgirl, giving her a light smile before walking off. Rarity stayed where she was, pondering Batgirl's offer.
Meanwhile, Edward, Diddy, Bill, and Ben were talking around the fire, heating up some rice.
"I am glad you listened to me, boys," smiled Edward, "Kasumi's out of the game, and now the game gets that much easier."
"With Kasumi voted out, I feel like I've gotten just that much closer to the money, without feeling like it'll be handed to her. I respect the game she plays, but it just seems like a lot of players were.. shall I say... star struck?" - Edward
"Who do you think will be next?" wondered Diddy, looking over at Edward.
"Considering she's at Prison Island," explained Edward, "I would keep my eye on Midna. She's slowly but surely becoming a target. Especially with Kasumi gone."
Ben nodded, "But No-Face is aligned with her, and he made a deal with Bill and I to protect him!"
"Ben and I don't want to break our word." confirmed Bill.
Edward closed his eyes and sighed, "Sadly boys, this is how the game is played. You shouldn't even be making these deals in the first place. If No-Face was the one who made it, then of course play it up, but other wise, don't."
"I feel like Bill and Ben are a little bit of a curse, sort of. For one thing, their mouths run wild around the camp, and they can get them and even Edward and myself into trouble. The two of us should handle the deals, quite honestly, because the twins might ruin them." - Diddy
– – – – –
"Come on in guys!"
Both tribes arrived at the challenge area.
"Guys ready for today's reward challenge?"
Everyone nodded excitedly.
"We'll now bring in Midna, returning from Prison Island."
The helicopter landed, and Midna climbed out of it. It is here that she noticed both Skarlet and Kasumi were gone. She smiled very brightly with a slight evilness to it. She was very excited.
"Well... it's that time again. Drop your buffs."
Everyone dropped their buffs onto the ground. Jeff then brought up two baskets full of eggs, one for Ontar, and one for Zeusch.
"Okay, everyone has an egg, 3, 2, 1, smash!"
Everyone did so. Blue and purple paint splattered everywhere. Both of the twins made an audible "Awww" sound when they were both separated. Batgirl was a little annoyed that Rarity was alone with Jacques, worried that Jacques would not be reliable enough to do the dirty work. Edward nodded at the results, seeing 2 each from his alliance on both tribes.
"The new Ontar tribe is: Bill, Diddy, Jacques, Midna, and Rarity. The new Zeusch tribe is: Batgirl, Ben, Edward, No-Face, and Pepper. Go to the new mat, and put on a buff."
Everyone did so.
"Now, it's time for the reward challenge. For today's challenge, you will select two member of your tribe to hoist up a net using a rope. In that net will be coconuts which will be tossed in by the opposing tribe. If you can't hold on any longer, let go of the rope. Last tribe standing, wins reward."
Jeff then revealed ten letters from home.
"It's been a good 24 days without hearing from, or even seeing your loved ones. If you win today's challenge, that's what you will win; letters from home. Let's get started."
Ontar
Holding: Diddy and Jacques
Throwing: Bill and Midna
Zeusch
Holding: Batgirl and No-Face
Throwing: Ben and Pepper
"Survivors ready? GO!"
Diddy, Jacques, Batgirl, and No-Face all started to hold onto their nets tightly with the ropes, preparing for all the coconuts being thrown into the net.
Pepper was the swiftest one on the field, picking up several coconuts around the area, and throwing them into the Ontar net, surpassing even the quick twins, who were tripping over several coconuts. Midna was doing sub par, not really in a competitive mood.
Batgirl and No-Face were slightly struggling more then Jacques and Diddy, which was a surprise to everyone. It was guessed that both of them were putting much energy too early, thus getting them more exhausted.
No-Face kept sending mental praises of encouragement to Batgirl. Despite being the strongest woman, this challenge was getting to her. Ben and Pepper picked up the pace, as did Bill and Midna, and Ontar was gaining a lead over Zeusch. Diddy, and even No-Face started struggled to keep up.
Jacques was getting weaker by the minute. He was very lanky-like; tall and thin. Diddy was trying to keep him going by sending encouragement much like No-Face to Batgirl. Bill was slowly getting tired of throwing coconuts, finding them a little heavy, which annoyed Edward on the side and Midna.
But soon... it was all over...
…
…
…
…
...Zeusch's net fell to the ground when No-Face's hands slipped of the rope, followed by Batgirl's.
"ONTAR WINS REWARD!"
All of Ontar hugged and cheered.
"Once again, another victory for the Ontar tribe. You guys are quickly making your mark on reward challenges, but let's see this energy for immunity challenges, huh? You guys win letters from home, and you are allowed to share them. Please enjoy. Zeusch, nothing really for you. Grab your stuff, and head on back to camp."
Ontar: Bill, Diddy, Jacques "Jeff the Killer", Midna, and Rarity
Zeusch: Batgirl, Ben, Edward, No-Face, and Pepper
Jury: Skarlet and Kasumi
– – – – –
Ontar Side Day 24
There really wasn't much strategy talk for the members of Ontar. After all, they had just gotten their letters from home.
Since they were allowed to share, Bill shared his letter with Ben and Edward, since they also knew who Bill's letter was from.
"I got a letter from one of my old bosses. His name is BoCo, and funny story... Ben and I thought he was the name of a disease! How stupid were we when we were kids? BoCo left the company to work elsewhere, and now we listen to the likes of Edward and Mavis. We miss him greatly." - Bill
"He's a great person!" complained Ben, "Why'd they get rid of him so early... we knew him for 5 seasons."
Edward shrugged, "Not sure what you mean by seasons... but regardless I miss BoCo too."
Jacques was reading over his 'letter', which happened to be a red paw print with the words, "Spread the Word", and signed by Smile Dog. Pepper was resting on his head, looking over it.
"Gee, that's what your dog wrote ya?" noted Pepper, "Quite quick and painless if you ask me."
Jacques snickered, "Quite right, my dear Pepper... hehehehe... quick and painless is what Smile Dog is all about."
"Unbeknownst to Pepper, the red 'paint' so she calls it is actually blood. Do not fret much longer, Smile, daddy will be home very soon... and we'll be living the life, my dear friend. Hehehehehe..." - Jeff the Killer
Diddy was by himself, reading the letter sent to him by his girlfriend and uncle.
"I come from a long line of Kongs in my family. We have myself, Uncle Donkey Kong, my girlfriend Dixie Kong, her sister Tiny Kong, who was actually on Survivor herself, and uh... my cousins Lanky Kong, Chunky Kong, and Kiddy Kong. Not to mention Uncle DK's grandparents; Cranky and Wrinkly. I came onto Survivor to make them proud of me." - Diddy
Midna and Rarity were reading their letters side by side. Midna's letter was from her lover, while Rarity's letter was from her parents and little sister.
Rarity wiped a few tears from her eyes, looking over at Midna, "I really do miss my family. I don't see them often, but being out here reminds me about what's at home, and what's at stake."
Midna nodded, rubbing the unicorn's back. "I feel your pain."
"Day 1 out here, I immediately regretted my choice to sign up for this game. However, Twilight Sparkle had a point about this game... it grows on you quickly. Wouldn't it be nice for me to win this whole game, to bring a better life for me and my family?" - Rarity
After finishing their letters, Midna looked at Rarity, "We have our families... but they are worried about us. We still need to survive if we're ever going to win, right? Thanks to you, I got the red coin. But now... seems like we don't need it, huh?"
Rarity nodded, still keeping Batgirl's words a secret, "Quite so, dear. Kasumi had it coming, frankly, and I figured sending you over there would keep you safe, and get power."
Midna nodded, "And that's what I got. But now we can hold onto this up to the merge, where we'll need this. Trust me, Rarity, you, me, and No-Face can make it to the Final 3. We still have obstacles, but we'll overcome them."
"I'm here to win one million dollars. Nothing will stop me. Flareon won over me because she was the cutesy, friendly, younger girl. This season, that was NiGHTS, and she's gone. No-Face and Rarity are perfect pawns, and as long as they're loyal to me, I will get to the end of this game, and claim victory." - Midna
"Alright... I trust you, darling." noted Rarity, looking back at her letter. Still the tiniest bit worried about the future.
– – – – –
Zeusch Side Day 24
Ben and Edward returned from the letter reading with Bill, and Edward walked over to grab the rice bucket that belonged to Zeusch.
"Anyone hungry for rice?" asked Edward, looking in the shelter where Batgirl, Pepper, and No-Face rested.
Pepper nodded, immediately sitting up straight, "Oh boy, am I! I haven't really eaten much in the last 24 hours, so.. time for dinner?"
"So what if I didn't get a letter from home. It ain't gonna disappoint me in the slightest! I know all of my friends love me, and I love them. All I gotta focus on right now is winning this game." - Pepper
Ben opened the rice bucket before Edward could, and his eyes bugged out, "Uhh... guys? Since when did we run out of rice?"
Edward raised an eyebrow, "That's odd... we were full yesterday evening..?"
"So like... I opened the rice bucket, and alllllll the rice is gone. Gone! Out! I don't know what the heck happened, but what I do know is that we were once full of rice! What happened?!" - Ben
Batgirl crawled out of the shelter, looking in the bucket as well, "Interesting. We got a sabotuer around here, it seems."
"Well who would be mean enough to dump our rice? Was it one of those scorpions wandering around? Skarlet being stung by one worries me that those scorpions are wandering all over camp." questioned Pepper.
Edward raised an eyebrow curiously, "The scorpions? I really doubt it at this point. It's one of us, or someone on Ontar."
"There's a lot of suspects for this act. One could easily blame the twins, but I know Bill and Ben well enough to know they aren't this stupid. Another possibility is Jacques, since he's just so mysterious. Then Pepper brings up the whole scorpion theory... and I don't buy it." - Edward
"Well... until we can figure out who it is... should we just ask Ontar to spare some rice?" wondered Batgirl.
Ben nodded quickly, "That would be the best idea ever! I'll go do it." With that said, he ran off the few steps it took to get to Ontar. This made Batgirl eye him weirdly.
"Both Ben and Bill are weird fellows, but I got my eye on them. This whole twist wasn't fair to begin with, so what other means of work will these two do to hurt our game? Guess we'll just have to find out. Right now, I suspect them of emptying out our food." - Batgirl
Ben ran over to the Ontar side, and took Bill aside towards the Ontar rice bucket, explaining the whole situation to him.
Bill blinked, laughing a little, "Funny coincidence! See, we had just the same amount of rice as you did, but then it was filled a little too much! Did one of you guys decide to share with us?"
Ben shook his head, "Not that I recall, brother!"
"Shame really. For once I figured you'd be nice enough to share." pouted Bill.
"Someone is behind all of this mystery of the rice! I will find him! Bill will assist me. We will become the Detective Twins! ….Then again we haven't the slightest idea of what to do given that situation. So I guess we're just going to rely on someone like Batgirl or Edward to figure it out." - Ben
– – – – –
"Come on in guys!"
Both tribes entered the challenge area.
"Guys ready for today's immunity challenge?"
Everyone nodded excitedly.
"First off, I'll back immunity from Zeusch."
Pepper did so.
"For today's challenge, all five tribe members will race into the ocean, and unhook logs. These logs will be used to create a stair case to the stars. However, every log you collect, you must sit one of the five out. Also with each log collected, you must go further into the ocean, to get the logs further out. Once you have all five logs, the two survivors who went last must put the staircase together. Each log will fit in one place. No jamming, no wobbling. First tribe to get all 5 members to the top wins immunity, and no tribal council. Let's get started."
Everyone got situated, as everyone was going to compete in this challenge.
"Survivors ready? GO!"
All ten remaining survivors dived out into the ocean, and swam towards the first log. Zeusch had a small lead over Ontar, due to the weaker Bill and Rarity slowing them down, but Midna and Diddy attempted to help them. Zeusch had skilled swimmers in Batgirl and No-Face, despite Pepper's weak swimming. Zeusch was the first tribe to unhook a log, and return it to shore. They sat Pepper out easily.
Zeusch was taking a huge lead over Ontar in this challenge, which was surprising many how well Zeusch turns up the gear in immunity challenges, yet fails in rewards. But Ontar wasn't giving up. Diddy and Jacques both made it to the log, and unclipped it, near the same time that Batgirl and Edward got the second log for Zeusch. Ontar sat Rarity out, while Zeusch sat Ben out.
But Zeusch slowly started to fall behind, as Edward was losing stamina out in the water. He felt like Ben should've stayed in instead of him. This allowed Ontar to catch up just a little. Once Ontar returned with their second log, Bill sat out.
The swift, combined team of Jacques, Midna, and Diddy was quickly catching up to the stronger Zeusch tribe. Even No-Face was beginning to lose his stamina, leaving only Batgirl to carry the weight of her tribe once more. Ontar returned with both their third log and the lead, sitting out Midna.
Eventually, and finally Zeusch made it to their third log, and quickly made it back to shore as Ontar had to swim a much longer distance to the fourth log. Edward was an easy choice to sit out for Zeusch. But Ontar wasn't done yet, as their chimp champ was still the star of the challenge, bringing Ontar closer and closer to victory. As Jacques sat out, Diddy was out last.
Diddy had a long road to extend the lead of Ontar, and that seemed to be enough for Batgirl and No-Face to begin their final push to victory. After retrieving their fourth log, Batgirl was sent out to deal the blow to Ontar as best she can.
Both Diddy and Batgirl were agile swimmers, and despite Diddy's lead, Batgirl was catching up. In the end...
…
…
…
…
...Diddy was the first to return with the final log, and it was only moments later that...
"It's over! ONTAR WINS IMMUNITY!"
All of Ontar hugged and cheered.
"For once in the game, Ontar, you have won immunity without the need of an advantage. I guess you can thank the chimp that gave such an advantage early on. Great work, you are all safe tonight. Zeusch, tribal council awaits. Another player will be voted out, and sent to the jury. See you all tonight."
– – – – –
Zeusch Side Day 25
Batgirl and Pepper were talking by the banana grove, planning their move of action for the night.
"I won't lie, I think us going to tribal tonight instead of Jacques and Rarity seems like the better course of action." noted Pepper.
"Another tribal council. Man, I'm getting sick of this, but I gotta remind myself that with every tribal council, I'm getting another step closer to the money. That's what I'm here for, and that's what I'm here to win. Tonight, we need to decide on a target. Like... who's the bigger threat?" - Pepper
"I know I said Edward a few days ago," explained Batgirl, "But look at it this way, who truly is the biggest threat?"
Pepper thought about it, "Strategically, kinda mixed between Midna and Edward."
"Close, but I think it's Midna. She was recently sent to Prison Island, right? She must've gotten that advantage Lobo might've had. Just a wild guess, really." continued Batgirl.
"Edward and the twins are a major problem, but frankly, they do not compare to Midna and her potential tribal council advantage of some kind. To me, any advantage is something to take notice, and we need to weaken her before she gets more power." - Batgirl
"She and No-Face are a tight duo," commented Pepper, "Should we attempt to get Ben and Edward against him tonight?"
Batgirl nodded, "It's a risk, considering Ben voted Kasumi out at the last vote, but if he's smart, he'll take out another returning player. Edward controls him, right? Ben doesn't matter. Talk to Edward, and if he's with us, Ben votes with him."
Pepper nodded, "That I agree with. Let's do some work, shall we?"
"With Skarlet and Kasumi gone, the power lies in my and Batgirl's hands, and we will win this in their name. We were supposed to be the Final 4, and due to a stupid scorpion and some stupid twins, we're down numbers. Time to get them back so we're in tip top shape." - Pepper
Meanwhile, in the shelter, No-Face was speaking with Ben and Edward about the vote.
"Are we on board together tonight?" asked No-Face, looking at both men, "I'm not voting either one of you out tonight, I'm gonna focus on one of those girls. Specifically Pepper, really. She's a charmer, that skunk."
"Batgirl is the stronger player, but strength doesn't mean much when you're sitting in front of a jury pleading to win the game. Pepper can talk, and talk well. That makes her a huge contender to win this game if she plays her cards right. If Ben keeps his word to me, she'll be going home tonight." - No-Face
Edward nodded, "I completely agree. With the jury starting, this game will become a lot more serious on the social end. She's got a powerful tool that could be risky for her, quite honestly. Batgirl is stronger and a threat, but long term wise, Pepper is more of a threat."
Ben chirped up, "Well that settles it, right? Pepper is going home?"
Edward nodded, giving Ben a smile, "Yes, Ben. Do not worry about it. We have the numbers, and I will tell you otherwise if you were in danger."
"No-Face brings up a valid point about Pepper. She's a comedian, and she gets along with nearly everyone on this tribe. She can easily win the jury vote if she tries hard. If I want to have a chance to win, Pepper needs to go." - Edward
Edward shook No-Face's hand firmly, and they separated ways for now.
A little while later, after having the conversation with Batgirl and Pepper, Edward and Ben had more to discuss.
"I didn't think about it until Batgirl brought it up," noted Edward, looking over at Ben, "It seems like No-Face might have to go. But I'm still not sure on what to do, really."
Ben pouted a little, "Bill and I made that deal with No-Face! I don't want to vote him off tonight."
"No-Face has proven after we made that deal with him to be loyal and not a backstabber. There is no reason why he needs to go home just because Midna is a threat and has some stupid advantage. It's complete bull." - Ben
Edward gave Ben a stern look, "I understand your reasons Ben, but who's to say he won't stay that way for long? Truthfully Ben, your true allies will be your brother and me. Not even Diddy can be trusted. Instincts, remember."
Ben nodded, still pouting. After a while of discussion, they agreed on a target.
– – – – –
The Zeusch tribe arrived at tribal council.
"We'll now bring in the members of the jury,"
"Skarlet,"
Skarlet was no longer in need of the IV, and was wearing another red ninja outfit, with her red hair let down.
"And Kasumi, voted out at the last tribal council."
Kasumi was wearing a red variation of her normal black and grey thief outfit.
"This game only gets crazier and crazier, doesn't it? Edward, have these twists caught you off guard, yet?" asked Jeff.
Edward nodded.
"Of course. I suspected that the twins were playing together strangely, and Prison Island seemed like a no brainer, hearing the name. If a twist comes, I will be prepared for it. Do not worry about me." replied Edward.
"No-Face, being a returning player, are you at all concerned that you or even Midna could be targeted for that very reason?" asked Jeff.
No-Face shrugged.
"It's possible, I will admit. Knuckles was voted off pretty early, and look at what happened to Kasumi. For all I know, it's my night tonight, but I don't think it is. I'll be surprised if I go home tonight." replied No-Face.
Ben looked away.
"Pepper, this has been your eighth visit to tribal council. You've been to all of them besides Lanky's and Kasumi's eliminations. Will this eventually bite you in the rear? Or do you still feel at ease?" asked Jeff.
"I'm never at ease, Jeff. Trust me, Survivor gets so stressful at times, that I don't even know if I should trust the trees. I feel like people hide in them to get information. But hey, that's just me." replied Pepper.
"Okay, it's time to vote, Pepper, you're up."
– – –
Batgirl's Vote: You're a great, brave man. I think Batman would be honored to meet you. (No-Face)
Edward's Vote: At this stage of the game, making the right move becomes a challenge. Sorry. (?)
No-Face's Vote: You are one crazy talking skunk, and tonight, I hope you go home. Bye. (Pepper)
– – –
"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, Pepper. (She shrugged.)
…
No-Face. One vote Pepper, one vote No-Face.
…
…
No-Face. Two votes No-Face, one vote Pepper. (No-Face looked over at Ben and Edward, nodding.)
…
…
…
Twelfth person voted out of Survivor Prison Island, and the third member of our jury, No-Face. That's three, that's enough, you need to hand me your torch.
No-Face sighed to himself, grabbing his torch, and handing it to Jeff.
"No-Face, the tribe has spoken."
He snuffed out his torch for the first time.
"Time for you to go."
No-Face turned around, "No one can be trusted in this game. Good luck." And with that, he left.
"The third returning player has been eliminated, and he was a worthy opponent. But was it was the right move at the right time? We'll soon find out. Grab your torches, and head on back. Good night."
– – – – –
No-Face's Final Words
"Clearly both of those twins have no spines whatsoever, and clearly the only person they listen to is Edward, it seems. Someone got in Edward's ear, gave him a great idea, he ran with it, and here I sit. At least I'm on the jury, so I'll get to dish out some questions at the end. Good luck Midna, you'll need it."
VOTE
No-Face – Edward, Batgirl, Ben, and Pepper
Pepper - No-Face
I do apologize for the long wait. I got a little too busy with other things, AND got writer's block. Hopefully, that trend ends today. ^^
Next episode will contain the FINAL Prison Island visit, and we will learn which eight players will make the smallest merge ever.
There is a poll on my page! Go check it out! ^^

Every review helps me learn who is well liked, who is hated, and what the general consensus is. I try my best to update regularly, so if you enjoy my Survivor series, follow me for more adventures.
