Previously on, Survivor,
En-Tee-I, Zola, and Mordin felt betrayed by their newly made alliance with Sweet Tooth, and plotted to take him down with the help of Rustic. With Senel's idol now in the hands of Kratos, Rustic had a chance to get back into the game. Meanwhile, Stephen and Thane were torn between turning against Sweet Tooth or keeping him around.
Mordin and Zola aligned Viva La Resistance with the Rustic Alliance, agreeing to take out Sweet Tooth or Harry if they were to lose the immunity challenge.
However, this plan fell into ruin when Harry won the immunity challenge, and chose to send Sweet Tooth to Exile Island for the night, sparing him from the vote.
With no other option, Viva La Resistance decided to return to the original plan, and vote off Rustic players. Kratos considered using his idol, but chose not to, believing Viva La Resistance would side with them.
While Ren chose to play his own immunity idol, he didn't need it, as the votes were directed towards JD, sending him to the jury by a 6-4 vote.
By choosing that side, Viva La Resistance made an enemy of Rustic. Ren called themselves 'The Three Rebels' and they planned to get themselves out of the minority.
Mordin and Zola attempted damage control with Kratos and Raine, but neither believed their words.
At the immunity challenge, the team of Kratos, Harry, Raine, Stephen, and Zola won immunity and a chance to see their families on video tape. However, Raine was selected by the losing team to not partake in the reward, and instead go to tribal council.
Before tribal council, Raine and Ren, with the idol still with Kratos, decided to get Sweet Tooth and Thane against En-Tee-I. However, Thane didn't want to turn on him, and told Sweet Tooth that if he chose to vote En-Tee-I, the rocks will be pulled.
Because of the rock tiebreaker, Sweet Tooth chose to avoid it, and voted out Ren, the only Rustic that wasn't immune. With that, Ren became the third member of the jury. 9 are left, who'll be voted out tonight?
Final 9: En-Tee-I, Harry, Kratos, Mordin, Raine, Stephen, Sweet Tooth, Thane, and Zola
Jury: Senel, JD, and Ren

Superstar Day 25
Kratos, Stephen, Zola, and Harry were all waiting for the other five Survivors to return to camp. Stephen stretched out a little.
"I wonder what happened at tribal council. Think a big move happened?" asked Stephen.
Zola shrugged, "I don't think so. I think it's either Sweet Tooth or Ren that got voted off."
"It's a little nerve wracking not being at tribal council, and not being able to control my allies' fate. I think Thane, Mordin, and En-Tee-I will be just fine, but anything can happen in Survivor." - Zola
Eventually, Sweet Tooth, Raine, En-Tee-I, Mordin, and Thane returned to camp. Kratos wasn't happy to see Ren out of the game. But throughout the night, he was planning ahead.
Kratos and Raine walked out into the jungle.
"Here's the plan," explained Kratos, "One of us has to win the immunity challenge. No matter what happens, the idol will be used on the other player."
Raine nodded, "I completely agree, Kratos. Though, regardless on if we win immunity or not, we're using your idol. Just having immunity would be a lot easier."
"It's just myself and Kratos at this point. We do happen to have Senel's hidden immunity idol still on us, which we HAVE to use at the next tribal council. I just hope we play the idol correctly if it comes down to it." - Raine
"Perhaps we could threaten them with the idol," suggested Kratos, "Win immunity, and then actually tell the others we have it. We might end up wasting the idol, but all it takes is one vote to tear a tribe apart."
Raine crossed her arms, "For some reason that might not work, Kratos."
"Well, it's their choice, Raine. They can vote off who they like, or they can leave it to us." replied Kratos.
"Three allies of mine have gone out one by one ever since the merge began. I am not going out without a fight to stay. I may be a big threat, but there's still bigger threats out there, like En-Tee-I and Sweet Tooth. That includes Mordin, who won last season." - Kratos
Meanwhile, Viva La Resistance and Thane were talking in the shelter.
"I do hope we can stick to Omega for right now," said En-Tee-I, "I've already explained to Mordin that I don't want us to be flipping back and forth with the wind."
Zola nodded, "I'm with En-Tee-I on this one. Flipping is not the way to go. We voted out JD and Ren last two tribals, so let's just stick to the plan and vote off Kratos and Raine next."
"Sweet Tooth is a walking threat, both physically and strategically. However, I believe it's best to keep the clown around just a few more days until the rest of the Rustic alliance is gone. I just hope Sweet Tooth doesn't pull his schtick with the whole betrayal process." - En-Tee-I
"Keep an eye on Sweet Tooth and Harry. May be keeping them, but not trusting. Perhaps one could stay close to them?" asked Mordin, looking at his alliance.
Thane nodded, "I can do that, Mordin. Out of the four of us, I'm closest to Harry and Sweet Tooth. If I hear word that one of you is getting targeted, I will report back."
"Glad to have someone like you with us, Thane." smiled Zola, patting his back.
"Stephen and I are sort of caught in two alliances. At this point, Stephen hasn't decided who he wants to work with. I will say that it might be better to work with Sweet Tooth and Harry, however. They are least likely to win in a Final 3 situation, compared to someone like En-Tee-I." - Thane

Superstar Day 26
Stephen and Thane were taking a stroll by the beach. Thane was picking up various seashells by the beach.
"Here's what I was thinking, Thane. I think it's honestly best to side with Sweet Tooth and Harry once it's down to us and Totakeke. They aren't gonna be strong jury threats." explained Stephen.
Thane nodded, looking up at Stephen, "Compared to someone like En-Tee-I or Zola, I agree."
"At this point, nothing's going to sway my mind on loyalties. For now, Kratos and Raine will surely be voted off in the next two tribal councils. Right now, though? I want to stick with Sweet Tooth and Harry. It might just earn me a million dollars." - Stephen
Stephen nodded, rubbing a hand through his black hair, "Just need to defeat Kratos and Raine in immunity, and it's basically set in stone. Then the real game begins."
"I bet Ben Tan is impressed with you this season, Stephen," smiled Thane.
Stephen chuckled, "You give me too much credit, Thane. You only say that because I haven't $%##ed up yet."
"But you're playing a much better game then before," explained Thane, "And if I had to give myself the same evaluation, I would say I'm doing better as well. Would you agree?"
Stephen nodded, "Of course, Thane! Especially considering your old age and illness."
"Thane has Kepral's Syndrome, which is apparently a life threatening disease. Despite all of that, he's a very kind, very agile, and smart man. Heh... I hope this isn't like Connie from Survivor Marble. Now that was a badass senior." - Stephen
Meanwhile, Kratos, Raine, and Sweet Tooth were talking in the jungle. Sweet Tooth was picking oranges off of a tree and placing them in a basket carried by Raine.
"Would you agree with me when I say En-Tee-I is a large strategic threat?" asked Raine.
Sweet Tooth nodded, mostly not paying attention.
"Well, wouldn't it make more sense to vote him off instead of us?" asked Raine, "I might of won the game, but En-Tee-I could easily win this games this time around."
"So Raine and Kratos decided to scramble and plead their cases as to why they should stay. While they make great points, I'm not interested in petty scrambling. En-Tee-I's time will soon come, just won't be now." - Sweet Tooth
"Think logically, Sweet Tooth," said Kratos, "Those three players; Zola, Mordin, and En-Tee-I, they are a powerful trio. I've known that since before the merge. If you don't break them up, they will be the Final 3."
Sweet Tooth sighed, turning to face them, "Let me guess. You want myself and Harry to join you two?"
"And Stephen, if possible. That's five votes, and that's all we need, really." confirmed Raine.
"It's either Sweet Tooth or En-Tee-I, and ultimately we chose Sweet Tooth. It might bite us in the rump later in the game, but if this works out, Kratos and I could hold onto the idol longer." - Raine
"Very well," agreed Sweet Tooth, wanting to leave the area, "I will speak with Harry and Stephen about it. We shall see if it's in our interest."
Kratos nodded, offering a handshake, which Sweet Tooth didn't take. Kratos shrugged, "Good to hear, then."
"It's a risk talking to Sweet Tooth, but considering our situation, Raine and I have no choice but to scramble. Even if it is with one of Survivor's big villains." - Kratos
– – – – –
"Come on in guys!"
The remaining survivors entered the challenge area.
"Guys ready for today's reward challenge?"
Everyone nodded excitedly.
"For today's challenge, from Survivor Virmire, you will be separated into teams of 3. You will each have your own little raft to share, and you must row out on your team raft to collect a series of flags. Each flagpole has a different end, so when you return to shore with all of your flags, you need to place them in order. The first team to finish wins reward."
Jeff whistled behind him, and out afar, came a nice speedboat speeding through the water.
"The winners of the challenge will enjoy a nice little day off from the game on this boat. You will enjoy a nice picnic out at sea, enjoying wine, fruit, sandwiches, and sundaes. Let's pick teams and get started."
Team 1: Raine, Sweet Tooth, and Stephen
Team 2: Mordin, Thane, and Kratos
Team 3: En-Tee-I, Harry, and Zola
"Survivors ready? GO!"
All 3 teams got out to an early start, with Raine, Mordin, and Zola rowing for their teams, while the other two would untie and grab flags. Team 3 got off to an early start, with Harry freeing the first of three flags for Team 3.
Team 2 wasn't too far behind Team 3, with Kratos collecting the first flag for Team 2. Team 1 was having some difficulty rowing the raft. Raine eventually switched positions with Stephen. That alone helped, as Sweet Tooth grabbed the first flag for Team 1.
Team 1 seemed to be catching up once Stephen took control of rowing. Raine untied the second flag for Team 1 as they sailed ahead of Teams 2 and 3. However, Team 3 eventually managed to keep up with Team 1, with En-Tee-I collecting the second flag for Team 3.
With Teams 1 and 3 neck and neck, Harry and Raine untied their final flags for Team 3 and 1 respectively. At this point, Team 2 has no chance to win.
Both Team 1 and Team 3 returned to shore, and began working on the flagpoles.
Eventually, one team finished...
…
…
…
…
…
"Got it Jeff!" called Stephen.
Jeff ran over to check it, and cleared them to go.
"Correct! THE TEAM OF RAINE, STEPHEN, AND SWEET TOOTH WINS REWARD!"
All of Team 1 hugged and cheered.
"Great work you three! Today, you will be spending the day on a really nice speedboat, having a nice picnic. You three may head off on your reward, the boat is here to pick you up. As for the rest of you, nothing to say or give. Grab your things, and head on back to camp. I will see you for the immunity challenge."
– – – – –
Reward Day 27
Stephen, Sweet Tooth, and Raine all got onto the speedboat, and the pilot sped the boat off. Almost immediately Sweet Tooth popped open the champagne, poured three glasses of it.
"To us!" cheered Sweet Tooth, clinking glasses with Stephen and Raine who both said "To us!" after Sweet Tooth did.
"Ah, this is wonderful! Sipping down champagne on the waters of DK Jungle. What more could you ask for on a day like today?" - Raine
As they sipped champagne, snacked on hamburgers, and had idle chit chatter, Raine was the first one to start talking game.
"Well... here we are," smiled Raine, "Stephen, I want to bring something up to you."
Stephen shrugged, laying back against the boat, "Go ahead. What's up?"
"I might have won the game before, but you know what, I probably won't win again," explained Raine, "There's no way a jury will want me to win again. Same goes to Mordin."
"I kind of expected Raine to start scrambling and strategizing the moment we got on the boat. Really doesn't matter to me, because she's one of the next two to be voted off. Nothing she says will convince me to keep her or Kratos around." - Stephen
"She's got a point, Stephen," noted Sweet Tooth, "Winners have a poor chance of winning again. Look at Andrew and Beat."
Stephen rolled his eyes, "Had he not said otherwise, Andrew could've won again in All-Stars. That's besides the point though. Thing is, Raine, I don't believe that. Winners can easily win again if they play their cards right."
"Never know unless you see for yourself, right?" giggled Raine lightly, sipping more champagne.
"Nice try Raine," chuckled Stephen, "Not swaying me one bit."
While Stephen and Raine talked, Sweet Tooth looked down at the table of food, and saw a note in the small flower vase. Without anyone looking, Sweet Tooth snuck his hand down and grabbed the note and slipped it into his leather glove.
"I really don't want Raine getting her grabby hands on the idol clue. If she and Kratos get another idol, they'll coast through the game further. Not letting that happen." - Sweet Tooth
– – – – –
Superstar Day 27
Mordin and Zola were talking around the camp fire.
"Been thinking about the future," said Mordin, looking up at Zola, "Potential Final 3 possibilities."
Zola got interested, "I'm listening."
"I would say Mordin is my closest ally in the Viva La Resistance alliance. I like En-Tee-I too, but listening to Mordin's stories save me the horror of being bored around camp when there aren't many chores to do." - Zola
"Final 4. You, me, En-Tee-I, Thane Krios. Vote En-Tee-I at Final 4. Too big of a threat." offered Mordin.
"But Thane might also beat us," whispered Zola, "He was voted most likable, after all."
Mordin placed his three-fingered hand on his chin, thinking in his head before saying, "Good point. Still, En-Tee-I also likable. Complications."
"Final 3 a huge consideration for me. Too many possibilities. Want Zola next to me at the end, but between En-Tee-I and Thane?" (deep sigh) "Problematic. Not sure who to take." - Mordin
"Although," pondered Zola, "If Thane and Stephen were in cahoots with Sweet Tooth and Harry, that might lose them votes if they turn on them with us."
Mordin nodded, "Correct. Also, Thane Krios, loyal ally. Known him for very long time. En-Tee-I, also loyal. Hard to explain, Zola."
Zola laughed softly, before nodding, "We'll just see what happens, but I'd like to be sitting next to you in the Finals, Mordin."
They then shook hands.
"A good reason to bring Mordin to the end is because he has won the game before. I could be wrong in the end, but I think winners won't win again. That is the only thing that could keep both Mordin and Raine longer in the game." - Zola
Meanwhile, Harry, Thane, and Kratos were sitting down by the beach.
"Only 12 more days left in the game," noted Thane, "It's been quite a journey for all of us."
Harry nodded cheerfully, "Why yes it has! I've been here on this beach nearly 70 days..."
Kratos looked over at Harry, "No you haven't. Maybe combined between now and Aquatic Ruin."
"Ah, yeah! That's right!" laughed Harry, slapping his forehead, "Duh!"
"I've played Survivor for almost 70 days now! It's Day 27 now... and I made it to Day 39 the first time around. Wait..." (starts counting on his fingers) "...that ain't 70. That's 66! ….Close enough." - Harry
"We probably will never reach 100 days like players such as Ben Tan or Andrew or Will." noted Thane, "And that's all right with me. I don't need to play 100 days to know that I did my best."
Kratos nodded at Thane's words, "Exactly."
"Survivors been one hell of a ride, I will admit. All good things do come to an end, eventually. I made it to Day 37 and 5th Place last time. While I would like to improve, judging on my current situation, I may not stay long to see an improvement." - Kratos
– – – – –
"Come on in guys!"
The remaining survivors entered the challenge area.
"We'll now bring in Sweet Tooth, Raine, and Stephen, returning from their reward."
The aforementioned survivors joined up with the others on their mat.
"Guys ready for today's immunity challenge?"
Everyone nodded excitedly.
"I'll take back immunity from you, Raine."
Raine did so.
"For today's challenge, from Survivor Forest Maze, you will be using a grappling hook to retrieve 3 bags of puzzle pieces. Once you have all 3 bags, complete the puzzle. First 4 to finish move onto the final round. In the final round you will navigate a ball through a rotating labyrinth maze. First one to finish that, wins immunity, and will be safe at the vote tonight. Today's immunity challenge is a big one. This is one you want to win, and you will see why later on."
Jeff then pulled out a bottle with a note in it.
"After the challenge is over, I will give the winner this, which will be read at tribal council. Let's get started."
Everyone got ready.
"Survivors ready? GO!"
Everyone started throwing their grappling hooks out to grab their puzzle pieces. En-Tee-I and Stephen got off to a fast start, while Harry and Raine weren't having much luck collecting the bags of puzzle pieces with their hooks.
Kratos, Sweet Tooth, and Zola worked very hard in getting their bags reeled in, while Stephen and En-Tee-I eventually had all three bags of puzzle pieces and were working on their puzzles.
Mordin, Harry, Thane, and Raine were out of the race by this point. Kratos was doing his damnedest to move on to the final part of the challenge, while Sweet Tooth tried to get ahead of him.
Eventually both Stephen and En-Tee-I finished their puzzles.
"Stephen! En-Tee-I! Moving on to the final round! Looking for two more!"
It was a race between Kratos, Sweet Tooth, and Zola, who all were now working on their puzzles. In the end...
…
…
…
"Sweet Tooth finishes! Zola finishes! En-Tee-I, Stephen, Sweet Tooth, and Zola moving on to the final part of this challenge!"
Kratos angrily kicked at the dirt, frustrated. Sweet Tooth smirked under his mask.
"In the final round, you will navigate your colored ball through the maze. First to finish is safe tonight at the vote and wins a very important immunity challenge. Survivors ready? Go!"
All four Survivors started working their ball mazes. Stephen and En-Tee-I were way ahead at this point, using their wits to their advantage. Sweet Tooth could hardly focus on his, hoping Stephen would beat En-Tee-I, fearing why this immunity was very important. If anything, he hoped Stephen won it.
Zola was far behind the other three, but she didn't mind at this point who won.
Eventually, one person finished...
…
…
…
…
…
Or should we say... ball. En-Tee-I's ball rolled down the exit, and smashed the plate at the bottom.
"EN-TEE-I WINS IMMUNITY!"
Everyone cheered for En-Tee-I.
"Congratulations En-Tee-I! You have won this crucial immunity challenge, and you are safe tonight at the vote. I want you to hold onto this bottled note until tribal council tonight. As for the rest of you, prepare yourselves for a vote tonight. One of you, as usual, will not survive it. See you all tonight."
– – – – –
Superstar Day 28
Sweet Tooth took Harry into the jungle. He seemed very paranoid.
"Harry, I'm not sure if Kratos or Raine have talked to you lately, but they've talked to me and Stephen about voting out En-Tee-I. They say he's gonna do well with a jury, blah blah blah." explained Sweet Tooth.
"After Jeff said that the immunity challenge was a very important one, I got very paranoid. Especially when En-Tee-I won the challenge. Whatever he won, I don't want him to bathe in it's luxuries. Tonight, there will be surprises." - Sweet Tooth
"Well, what are you saying then, Sweet Tooth?" asked Harry.
"En-Tee-I winning this "important immunity" has me worried. So tonight, we're gonna go with Kratos and Raine, and blindside either Mordin or Zola. With Stephen and Thane hopefully on board, we're set to go." confirmed Sweet Tooth.
Harry nodded, "Well, if that's what the plan is, that's what I'll do!"
"Good," smirked Sweet Tooth, "I'll speak with Kratos and Raine, and later Stephen and Thane to rely the information. Whatever En-Tee-I won, he'll have to make good use of it, cause he'll be without one ally in a matter of hours."
"Sweet Tooth and I are trying our best to hang in there, and we've gone back and forth with keeping the Totakeke players in the game. Guess tonight we're gonna be taking one of them out! So long!" - Harry
However, someone nearby had followed them into the jungle, and spied on them. "I knew it..." muttered the floating alien ball.
In the shelter, Mordin and Zola were having a quick rest in the shelter. Moments later, En-Tee-I came floating in, an angry expression on his face.
"What's the matter?" asked Zola, a bit concerned.
"Well, I followed Sweet Tooth and Harry into the jungle as usual just to make sure we weren't gonna get the middle finger tonight," explained En-Tee-I, "When they say along the lines of 'En-Tee-I's important immunity worries me. If he gets a special power, I don't want him making great use of it.'."
Mordin groaned softly, annoyed. Zola shook her head, getting up out of the shelter.
"There is zero loyalty from Sweet Tooth. None. Zero. Zilch. Nada. Officially betrayed trust for good. Could never regain it." - Mordin
"Listen," explained Zola, "If that's the case, we've got a #%$#load of scrambling to do. This is where Stephen's and Thane's loyalties will be tested. Are they more on our side? Or Sweet Tooth's?"
"Thane will. Stephen not so sure about." replied Mordin, looking up at Zola.
"We made a mistake so early on in the game. Damn you past En-Tee-I! Whatever, tonight, we need to break up Sweet Tooth and Harry, and I mean that. So help me God if that doesn't happen, I will die in the corner of the shelter." - En-Tee-I
"Tonight, we're voting for Harry," explained En-Tee-I, "and then Sweet Tooth. Because I believe this bottled note is two votes in one tribal council. Not sure why this is an important immunity for me, though."
Mordin nodded, "May be right. Lucky for us if two votes. Will be able to take out a strong pair in one night."
"I just hope our plan works tonight. If Sweet Tooth gets his way tonight, and it IS two votes tonight... then Viva La Resistance will be hurting badly. This isn't good. This isn't good at all." - Zola
Mordin and Zola fist bumped, and then head butted En-Tee-I before separating to scramble.
After a heavy amount of scrambling from mostly everybody on the tribe, Thane and Stephen were talking in the jungle.
"Wow..." sighed Stephen, "This is going to be a mess by the time tribal council is over."
Thane nodded, "Yes. Stephen, I'm gonna say this right now, I'm voting for Harry tonight."
"Thane, we need him and Sweet Tooth," explained Stephen, "This vote tonight clearly will ruin both of their chances of winning, thus putting our stock higher on the list for jury votes."
"En-Tee-I's immunity has Sweet Tooth super paranoid about what it could be. Jeff never really did explain why it was so important, and because of that, Sweet Tooth is very unsure of what it could be, and he wants to take out one of his allies tonight. Once again, Thane and I are in the middle." - Stephen
Thane gave him a stern look, "Sweet Tooth is playing a lot like Limberg did. He'll betray allies if they threaten him. What if you or I threaten him later in the game? Then we'll get the boot. Besides, I feel like this could be the last chance we get to vote him and Harry off."
Stephen sighed, "I'll... see what happens tonight."
Thane nodded.
"I hope Stephen makes the right decision tonight. If he votes with Sweet Tooth, he's becoming greedy. Becoming greedy in a game like Survivor is not a good thing." - Thane
– – – – –
The Superstar tribe entered tribal council.
"We'll now bring in the members of the jury..."
"Senel,"
Senel was wearing a yellow t shirt and black shorts.
"JD,"
JD was wearing a white suit. His hair was gelled back.
"And Ren, voted out at the last tribal council."
Ren was wearing nothing but a top hat with a pipe in his mouth.
"This game gets interesting every day, and with a bottled note in play, anything can happen. Mordin, after En-Tee-I won the immunity challenge, did you guess what the bottled note could possibly entail?" asked Jeff.
"Could be anything really. Tons of possibilities. But more worried about tonights vote then what the note could say." replied Mordin.
"Thane, was it crazy back at camp?" asked Jeff.
"Definitely crazy. It was quite possibly the craziest day I've had on Survivor. A lot went on behind the scenes, and tonight will be a big vote. Especially with the note." replied Thane.
"Raine, are you concerned about the vote?" asked Jeff.
Raine nodded.
"Just a little bit. I've been told that I'm safe tonight, but that could mean anything in the game of Survivor. For all I know, I'm getting voted off tonight." replied Raine.
"Zola, how about you? Are you aware that you are the last remaining castaway from Survivor Forest Maze?" asked Jeff.
Zola nodded.
"Oh, I'm aware, and I don't see how that'll make a difference in the vote tonight. All I know about tonight is... well... En-Tee-I is lucky to be wearing that necklace." replied Zola.
"Stephen, how are you voting tonight?" asked Jeff.
Stephen sighed.
"Who knows Jeff. There are too many possibilities at this point, like Mordin said." replied Stephen.
"Okay, it is time to vote, Harry, you're up."
– – –
En-Tee-I's Vote: Nothing to say, hopefully you go tonight, and then your master leaves afterwards. (Harry)
Kratos' Vote: I'm just glad I don't have to use my idol tonight. Good luck. (?)
Stephen's Vote: Sorry. It's for the best. (?)
Sweet Tooth's Vote: En-Tee-I's got a good game going, and ultimately, it's you who'll take the fall. (?)
Thane's Vote: I apologize. I just don't trust you. (Harry)
– – –
"If anybody has the hidden immunity idol and you would like to play it, now would be the time to do so."
Nobody did anything.
"Okay, 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, Harry. (He blinked.)
…
Harry. Two votes Harry.
…
…
…
Mordin. One vote Mordin, two votes Harry. (Mordin deeply sighed, concerned.)
…
Mordin. Tied two votes Mordin, two votes Harry.
…
…
Mordin. Three votes Mordin, two votes Harry.
…
Mordin. Four votes Mordin, two votes Harry. (Thane closed his eyes.)
…
…
…
Harry. Three votes Harry, four votes Mordin. (Stephen also closed his eyes, and looked away.)
…
…
Harry. We're tied. Four votes Harry. Four votes Mordin. One vote left. (Everyone focused on Jeff.)
Twelfth person voted out of Survivor Ultimates, and the fourth member of our jury...
…
…
…
…
…
…
…
…
…is Mordin. That's five, and it's enough. You need to hand me your torch.
Thane shook his head a little, looking down at the ground. Mordin hugged Zola and En-Tee-I before giving his torch up.
"Mordin, the tribe has spoken."
He snuffed out his torch for the first time.
"Time for you to go."
Mordin shook his head sadly as he left the area.
"Now that was a big blindside. Another winner exits the game, and now we're down to eight. En-Tee-I, you may now open up the bottled note."
En-Tee-I did so, using his mouth to pop the top off the bottle, and took the note out. He read out loud, "You just voted out someone from your tribe. You will now vote off another. Any immunities and hidden immunity idols used will remain in play."
"That is why it was a big immunity for you, En-Tee-I. You get to survive two votes compared to one. No hidden immunity idols were played, and cannot be played for this vote. I will give you ten minutes to decide on who you're voting for."
After ten minutes had passed, and several whispers and silent signals had been made, Jeff spoke up.
"Okay, it's now time to vote. En-Tee-I is safe. Kratos, you're first up."
– – –
En-Tee-I's Vote: What... the hell... just happened...? (Stephen)
Sweet Tooth's Vote: I feel kind of dumb now, but I've made my move. Might as well carry it out. (Zola)
– – –
"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, Stephen. (He nodded.)
…
Stephen. Two votes Stephen.
…
…
Zola. One vote Zola, two votes Stephen. (She gathered her things, knowing she was done for.)
…
Zola. Tied two votes Zola, two votes Stephen.
…
Zola. Three votes Zola, two votes Stephen.
…
Zola. That's four votes Zola. (Sweet Tooth smirked.)
Thirteenth person voted out of Survivor Ultimates, and the fifth member of our jury, Zola. That's five, and it's enough. You need to hand me your torch.
Zola sighed, hugging En-Tee-I before giving her torch up. "Stay safe."
"Zola, the tribe has spoken."
He snuffed out her torch.
"Time for you to go."
Zola gave a nod to the remaining players before leaving the area.
"This might be a night to remember. Two players left tonight, and they both looked shocked about the results. We will see how this goes. Grab your torches, and head on out. Good night."
– – – – –
Mordin's Final Words
"Unpleasant situation. Never been voted out before. New for me. Quite disappointed in Sweet Tooth. Playing quite a ruthless, cutthroat game. However, give him credit. Never saw that vote coming in my direction. Hope En-Tee-I, Zola, and Thane make best of their situation."
VOTE
Harry – Zola, Thane, En-Tee-I, and Mordin
Mordin – Raine, Sweet Tooth, Stephen, Kratos, and Harry
Zola's Final Words
"This game can get very ugly at times, and tonight was no exception. As En-Tee-I got to keep his immunity for the second vote, it was pretty obvious that I was going to follow Mordin out the door. Sweet Tooth has signed his fate. After this vote, it's going to be difficult for him to win, now."
VOTE
Stephen – Zola and En-Tee-I
Zola – Thane, Raine, Sweet Tooth, Stephen, Kratos, and Harry
