Previously on, Survivor,
Anise was absolutely livid after the results of the last vote. Despite Ion's attempts to keep Anise under control, Anise went off on a tirade against Lady and Danielle. She let slip that she had the hidden immunity idol, much to Pepper's dislike.
With that in mind, Daisy came up with a plan to rid the pair of both idols. Her plan was to have Sindel make a fake immunity idol, and randomly place it in either Anise's or Pepper's bag, hoping they accidentally play it at the next vote.
At the reward challenge, the team of Daisy, Dixie, and Pepper managed to work together in order to win a fantastic feast.
During the reward, Daisy tempted Pepper with the chance to turn against Anise, and join their alliance. But in order for them to trust her, Pepper needed to hand over her immunity idol. Both girls promised her that she would be safe, and after Anise was gone, Sindel and Will would be next in line. Pepper didn't want to, but knowing how poorly Anise was playing, she was considering it.
Back at camp, Anise came up to see what Sindel and Will were up to, and it only turned into a mini-argument, with Anise stomping off in anger. Meanwhile, Ion praised Danielle on how far she came in the game of Survivor.
At the immunity challenge, it came down to the mother and daughter duo of Lady and Danielle, and Will. In the end, Will took his second victory of the season.
Before tribal council, Pepper agreed to work with Daisy, but only if Daisy turned against Dixie, and sent the biggest threat home. Daisy lied right to her face and said she would, but Pepper needed to give up her idol, just to make sure they weren't pulling a fast one. With hesitation on her side, Pepper agreed, and gave up her idol.
After getting the idol from Sindel, and placing it in Anise's bag, the Triple D's discussed the vote. Daisy was willing to keep her word to Pepper, and blindside Sindel, but Dixie and Lady saw Pepper as completely vulnerable and an easy target.
On the flip side, Pepper told Anise what the plan was, and left Anise feeling a little bit better. But Pepper wasn't feeling safe, and asked Anise to use her idol on her just in case things looked back.
At tribal council, due to a comment made by Danielle, Anise and Pepper knew something seemed a little fishy. Anise soon played the hidden immunity idol on Pepper, but was shocked to learn that it was a fake idol. After the votes were read, Pepper found herself on the receiving end of a blindside, joining the jury as the third member. 8 are left, who'll be voted out tonight?
Final 8: Anise, Daisy, Danielle, Dixie, Ion, Lady, Sindel, and Will
Jury: Diddy, Sunil, and Pepper

Galaxy Day 28
After the tribe returned from the rather surprising vote, there was a little tension in the air. Anise was still reeling in shock from having a fake idol, while Daisy wasn't feeling all that good about betraying Pepper.
"Come on, man! I never wanted to play the villain, but I know Pepper needed to go at some point. At least we got rid of one idol. We still have Anise's real idol in play, and who knows when she or Ion will discover that fact." - Daisy
While everyone else scattered around camp, Anise fell backwards into the shelter, shaking her head, "I mean... what the hell!? Pepper forgets her idol, goes home, and my idol ends up being fake? I just... I just cannot process any of this!"
Ion took a seat next to her, just as much shocked but not overreacting, "Certainly wasn't expecting any of that... but Anise? How could you of found a fake immunity idol? I was almost certain it was real when you showed it to me.."
"I don't know Ion. I don't know." sighed Anise.
"Last night, Anise played her idol to save Pepper, and it ends up being fake, and we lose Pepper as a result. Her idol is gone for good, since she apparently left it hidden at camp. Whether or not I believe that story is another thing. What I want to know... how did Anise get a fake idol to begin with?" - Ion
After a few minutes of thinking, Ion looked over and took Anise's bags. He started looking through everything, while Anise didn't protest as she was still herself thinking. Eventually, Ion sighed of relief, "Anise...? I don't think we're entirely in need of worrying. I think you were tricked." With that said, he pulled out the real idol from her bag.
Anise's eyes widened, and she let out a squeal, "Oh my God! That's fantastic! Those bastards... thinking they can trick poor ol' me... they'll pay for this!"
"Last night, I played a fake idol, which I can only conclude someone snuck into my bag for me to play! Please, only Zola can pull that stint off! I know it was Daisy who did it, because she's just screwing around, thinking she's some Survivor legend. Psssh! As if!" - Anise
"I know you aren't going to listen to me, but here's what I've been thinking on the way back," explained Ion, "We need to talk with Sindel and Will. I know they've overstayed their welcome, but you have to see that Lady, Danielle, Daisy, and Dixie are an alliance."
Anise crossed her arms, "Ion, no! We're not helping those two! If anything we're going to get them voted off. We have the idol for real now... so what does it matter?"
"Ion wants to align us with Sindel and Will, and get them to turn on the other four, which sounds completely stupid in my mind! We've been dragging them since Sunil was voted off, and now we're dragging them further? Please!" - Anise
"Anise, listen to me," sighed Ion, "If we vote them out... or vice versa... the other four will get to the end easily. I think it's worth a try, don't you think?"
"Ion, I have the hidden immunity idol, so like, we don't really need them at all! I say we just convince those girls that Sindel and Will are huge competitors, and attempt to eliminate them now." explained Anise.
Ion sighed once more, "Whatever you say, I'll follow, but that doesn't mean I won't suggest things. Remember Anise, this is a million dollars on the line."
Anise nodded, and patted his back with a smile. Meanwhile, down by the beach, Daisy, Danielle, and Lady were all having a little talk.
"Feeling bad, Daisy?" asked Danielle curiously.
Daisy shook her head, "Nah... not really. I won't get Pepper's vote in the end, but ultimately, we outsmarted them, and got the idol. One of them at least."
"After Pepper's elimination, we took down one idol. The problem is that Anise can still find her own idol if she's smart enough. If they manage to take us down a peg... we can always get back on top, thanks to Daisy." - Lady
"We just have to keep Sindel and Will loyal to us," explained Lady, "And eliminate Ion and Anise as soon as possible. Then we can just vote them off. Is that what we're doing?"
Daisy nodded, "Definitely. I mean there's really no clear cut way of putting it. Although I'm getting a little worried about keeping Will around."
"Will's definitely showing his ability to win immunity challenges, and if he continues his little streak, he'll bounce his way into the Final 3, ready to win after four tries. Listen, four tries is long enough not to win the game." - Daisy

Galaxy Day 28
Later on in the day, Will, Sindel, Daisy, and Dixie all went out to fill up water canteens.
"Are we still solid, you guys?" asked Will, looking over at Daisy and Dixie, "I mean, we have them right where we want them."
"I'm fully aware that once Anise and Ion are gone, that Sindel and I will soon be back up on the block. However... I'm not worried at all. I know Sindel's higher on their #$%# list, and I have a thing for pulling rabbits out of my ass last minute in the game, so... I'm confident I can pull it off, even without this Queen." - Will
Daisy nodded, "Exactly! Listen, there's no way we're sending you home now. That would be shameful to go out before someone like Anise."
Sindel laughed, "You got that right. Never liked the little brat, so I'll be happy to see her go soon."
"I would've said that Ion should be next, just in case he starts winning challenges," replied Dixie, "But with Anise still having access to her real idol, if she realizes it... Anise needs to go soon."
"Daisy got Pepper's idol off of her, and succeeded in tricking Anise with the fake one. But it's not over. It's so far from over. Anise and Ion have the real idol, and if they do, it could be all over for us." - Dixie
"Definitely another fake idol won't do the trick again," noted Sindel, crossing her arms, "No one falls for the same trick twice..."
Will nodded, "We just have to outsmart them, if that's the case. Ion's the only smart one, but he won't take charge with Anise around, so... that will be easy enough."
"I really wanna pull a Ben Tan with my hidden immunity idol, and play the idol on whomever they target so that the vote is invalid, and we have to re-vote. But that's a very risky move, and it could cost us the idol if we misuse it." - Daisy
"Whatever ends up happening, we'll let you two know before we leave for the next vote, alright?" smiled Dixie, giving them each a thumbs up.
"Good. That's what I like to hear from you both." smirked Sindel.
"To be honest, I'm not feeling 100% confident with this plan. As much as it gets the attention off of me, I need Will to hold back in challenges, for if he gets too dangerous, he can easily become the target, leaving me by myself; an easy target. Absolutely not right for a Queen." - Sindel
Meanwhile, Ion was preparing bowls of rice for both Lady and Danielle.
"Listen, I have no problem with how the game is going right now," explained Ion, "In fact, I've explained that already to Danielle, Lady. That said, I just wanted to let you in on something."
"You've always been kind to us, Ion," smiled Lady, kindly taking her bowl of rice from him when offered, "What's going on?"
"Anise may be giving us the cold shoulder, but Ion's been the same to us since we've flipped. Still as sweet and kind as ever. That could just be Ion playing the game, or Ion simply not overreacting like Anise was." - Lady
"I don't see myself going far in this game," explained Ion, handing the other rice bowl to Danielle, "Nor Anise for that matter. But Sindel and Will...? Definitely a huge target on them, you know? Will's won two immunities in a row.. and look at their history."
Danielle nodded at his words, "You have a point, Ion.. and is that why you voted Will off first, Mom? Back on Heroes vs. Villains?"
"I suppose so, but I was merely going along with what the tribe wanted," replied Lady, "Here, it's been a completely different game. But yes, Ion's right. Even Sindel will turn into a threat eventually."
"The Triple D's are in the best position yet! However, there's still a few twists and turns left to make! Like for example... which pair to pick off first? Sindel and Will? Or Ion and Anise? Me personally? I would rather take out Sindel and Will, since I really like Ion a lot more then them." - Danielle
Ion looked at them both sincerely, "I'm being 100% honest with you guys... if you plan to vote off Will or Sindel at the next vote..? I will join you, no matter what Anise says. Right now, she's on board, but you know how she gets."
"We'll bring it up with Daisy and Dixie, Ion," smiled Lady, nodding her head, "We can use all the help we can, you know?"
Ion smiled back, shaking Lady's and Danielle's paws.
"I don't like this at all, but at this point I know it's a long stretch for me to win this game right now. I'm still going to be holding back in competitions until it's absolutely necessary, but for now, I just need to hold back, and keep under the radar." - Ion
– – – – –
"Come on in guys!"
The survivors entered the challenge area.
"Welcome to the Survivor Auction. If you see something you like, you may take it!"
Everyone nodded excitedly.
"Each of you have $500 bucks. You may not share food at all, nor may you give money to another survivor. Let's get started!"
Jeff pulled out a covered item.
"It'll remain covered." noted Jeff.
"Umm... 250, please?" called Danielle.
"Wow, Danielle immediately wants to jump the gun and spend 250 for this unknown item." smiled Jeff.
"I just.. well, I love surprises! Could I please have it...?" asked Danielle, looking at everyone.
Seeing how that was one of the first few items, no one bothered.
"Very well, sold to Danielle for 250 bucks."
Jeff lifted the lid, and it was a chicken sandwich and french fries.
Danielle squealed happily, and took the meal, "Ohhhh! Thank you thank you thank you!"
Jeff then revealed another hidden item.
"Next item!"
"100!" called Dixie.
"120!" called Daisy.
"140!" called Dixie.
"160!" called Daisy.
"Daisy bids 160. Any other takers?"
"240!" called Ion, out of nowhere.
Everyone was a little surprised to see Ion bid that high. Anise clapped her hands.
"Once, twice, sold to Ion for 240 bucks."
Jeff revealed what it was; a small bowl of chicken soup.
Ion nodded, smiling, "Perfect, I needed something like this. Thank you."
Jeff then revealed the next item.
"Covered up, again. Covered items are just fun, huh?"
"Hey! I'll take it for 400 bucks! This has got to be mine!" called Anise.
Daisy snarked at her, "Oh shut up! If you want a bid war, then let it begin. 450!"
"And then let it end. 500, and it's mine." smirked Will almost immediately after Daisy set her bid.
"Well, 500 is the max number, and no one else can go over it. Sold to Will for 500 dollars."
Jeff revealed a sealed note and handed it to Will.
"This is an advantage at the next immunity challenge. Hold onto this note, okay?" instructed Jeff.
"Thank you, Jeff. I hope it was worth all my money, and not eating." laughed Will, taking his seat back.
Jeff pulled out the next item, and uncovered it.
"Right here, we have an amazing smoked turkey dinner, complete with mashed potatoes, vegetables, and all the fixings. You have to split money with another Survivor. Since Will used up all his money, one person will be left out."
Daisy tapped Dixie's shoulder, "This is so ours, girl! Wanna split it for 400?" Dixie nodded, "Absolutely!"
"400 being split between Dixie and Daisy. Is there anything higher?"
"I hate you, Sindel, but we need this meal," demanded Anise, to which Sindel shrugged, nodding her head, "800!"
"900!" shouted Daisy, waving her wallet in the air, sticking her tongue out at Anise. Lady and Danielle wanted to bid, but Danielle was still eating her chicken sandwich from earlier, so she stopped.
After some whispering between Anise and Sindel, Anise nodded and looked at Jeff, "You know what? Let her have it. That's a huge waste of her money, splitting 450, and I'm not wasting my money with Sindel."
"900 dollars split between Daisy and Dixie. Any other takers? All 500 split between Anise, Lady, or Sindel could be enough." offered Jeff.
No one took it.
"Very well, then. Sold to Daisy and Dixie for 900 dollars. Enjoy."
Both girls handed 450 bucks to Jeff, and took the delicious plate back. Almost immediately they started eating. Anise looked very jealous.
Jeff revealed the next item.
"Time for something large. How about a big sweet desert... a banana split!"
"I call 140 on that!" shouted Danielle, ready for desert, tongue hanging out cutely.
"260!" called Anise, standing straight up, knowing Danielle could not bid higher, making her pout.
Lady glared at Anise, before looking at Jeff, "Is it alright for me to bid for Danielle? Or is that against the rules?"
"The rules state that you cannot share money, but if you're willing to give your item up to someone else after buying it, that's fine."
Lady nodded, "Very well, then I have no use for this money anymore. I'm spending all of it on that banana split."
Anise crossed her arms, very upset at not being able to eat anything at the auction, watching as Lady gave her wallet to Jeff.
"Thank you so much, Mom!" giggled Danielle, kissing her mother on the cheek, and digging into the banana split.
"That's it. The auction is over! You all can head back to camp. I'll see you all tomorrow for the immunity challenge."
– – – – –
Galaxy Day 29
Anise was still furious over the whole auction. She still had $500, which felt like a double edge sword for her.
"I mean, like... I'm so happy I got 500 dollars for free, y'know? But like... here I am just starving! I really wanted at least one food item! But nope! Lady had to be Mrs. Goody-Two-Shoes! Bahh... it's just annoying!" - Anise
Danielle pranced over to Lady, and hugged her tightly, "Thank you so much! Are you okay with that, though..? Anise didn't seem all that happy."
Lady shook her head, "I could care less. Anise has shown her true colors as of late. Originally, I thought of her as a troubled greedy child... but she's just really.. really rude."
"After all the harsh things Anise has said towards me and my daughter, I could care less what she thinks about me. I told Danielle the same thing, and to keep herself composed, and relaxed. Blowing up like Anise is doing won't do you any good." - Lady
"So, um... does this change what we're planning to do?" asked Danielle, "Y'know.. regarding keeping Ion and Anise two rounds?"
Lady shrugged, "I have no idea... Daisy herself is getting absolutely tired with Anise at this point, but I'll have a talk with her soon, wondering what we could do."
"I think the group consensus at the moment is that everyone, sans Ion, is annoyed and tired of Anise! She's annoying, she's lazy, she's whiny. All in all, she's very much like my sister, Annette, just a lot worse. But at the same time, as Mom says, she's no threat." - Danielle
A few minutes later, Lady approached Daisy and Dixie under the shelter, and took a seat near them. She started to explain what Ion told her and Danielle the other day.
"Please, you know that's Ion being the errand boy for Anise!" scoffed Daisy, "We know Anise has the real idol, and I think she already knows that by now."
"But lets understand that Anise can't win anything without an advantage, which Will obviously won," explained Lady, "As much as I do not like Anise... I think Will or Sindel would be the wisest vote."
"Right now, our alliance is very conflicted. Anise is annoying everyone, especially Daisy and Lady, and Will and Sindel have been enjoying the luxury of skating by each vote and winning challenges. It's really just like... what do we doooo?" - Dixie
"I think it's plainly obvious Will will use his advantage, and win immunity for the third time in a row," noted Daisy, "Leaving us to vote off either Sindel or Anise off. Sindel's clearly the bigger threat."
Lady nodded, "I completely agree with you. I think if Will's advantage does work out for him... we need to just send Sindel home to weaken him."
"I need to step it up now, I guess," laughed Dixie, "I've just been avoiding winning challenges lately to lessen my threat, but now... it's now or never."
"It's go time for the Triple D's! We need to beat Will at immunity so that it's out of his hands, and gives us all the power to do whatever we want! Obviously, we have the idol, as does Anise, so that will become a factor in what we do. Whatever happens, I just want to be safe to the Final 4!" - Daisy
– – – – –
Galaxy Day 29
Anise was sitting in the shelter, still bitter over the whole auction. Ion and Will were also in the shelter with her, with Ion listening to Anise, and Will just sleeping and half-listening.
"Just... I'm over the whole auction thing," muttered Anise, "But that makes it a good reason to send Lady home! Split up the mother daughter duo, and split apart one of the strongest duos yet!"
"I want this whole Lady giving Danielle the banana split as a game move, you know? I want them to vote for Lady, and send her home. I don't care if Danielle cries like a little baby. Quite frankly I've dealt with too much in this game, that I absolutely need to see someone else cry to feel better." - Anise
Ion shrugged, before looking back at Will, before saying, "But Anise... well... don't get ahead of yourself. To be fair, there are bigger threats out there."
"I know Ion, it's just I'm so annoyed with them. First they betray us, then they outbid me at the auction, they just... they're evil!" sighed Anise.
Will listened in carefully, pretending to be asleep.
"It seems like Lady and Danielle's names are floating about, but I know very well what Ion was trying to mean by "bigger threats". I think it's clear that if he works his magic, that I could be in for a rude awakening." - Will
"Anise, I don't know about you, but I think we should be thinking about this strategically. Just think about it a little closer." explained Ion.
Anise nodded, sighing heavily, laying down in the shelter.
"Ion's right, when you think about it. But I don't really care. Lady and Danielle are very tight, more tight then Sindel or Will could ever be. I think it's worth it, and besides, I really think I'm going next, so I need to make the move now before they do." - Anise
Ion nodded, "I'm going to go get some fire wood, I'll be joining you later before we leave for the challenge." Anise nodded, and watched him leave.
Ion walked into the forest, and started to pick up various branches off the ground, most of them from the old trees that were losing branches. As he was collecting wood, Daisy and Dixie approached him.
Ion gave them a little smile, "Oh, good evening girls. How are things treating you?"
"Pretty good, I'd say!" smiled Dixie, "We're just taking a small walk through the forest. I can see you're getting stuff done around camp."
"That I am. Anise is still in the shelter complaining, so I decided to get out for a little while, and get chores done." shrugged Ion.
"I think we can trust Ion, mostly. He's annoyed with Anise, but I doubt he'd back stab her, so it's not like we can give him all of the information. However, Ion's the sensible one, so to avoid a tie, if we decide to target Will or Sindel... we need his vote." - Dixie
"Ion, just to let you know," explained Daisy, "We're going to vote for Sindel tomorrow night if Will wins immunity, alright?"
"I understand, I'll let Anise know, okay?" nodded Ion, giving them a smile, before walking off with the wood.
"Ion's a good kid, so we'll keep him around for a little while longer. Still though, the fact that he dominated seven duels in a row still lingers in my mind. So he's not entirely guaranteed fifth place." - Daisy
– – – – –
"Come on in guys!"
The remaining players arrived at the challenge area.
"Guys ready for today's immunity challenge?"
Everyone nodded excitedly.
"I'll take back immunity from you once again, Will."
Will did so.
"For today's challenge, you will each hold onto a metal rod, which one end of a rope is tied around. The other end of the rope is attached to a bucket overhead. This bucket is weighted down with 25% of your body weight. Your goal is to hold on for as long as you can. Last person left standing will win immunity, and is guaranteed a 1 in 7 shot of winning Survivor."
Everyone nodded, determined to win.
"Will, at the auction today, you won an advantage during today's immunity challenge. Please open the note, and read it out loud."
Will nodded, taking the note from his pocket, and reading it, "Today, you will become a giver and maybe even a taker. Choose four people to sit out of today's challenge, and allow them to have a feast full of food. You may also choose yourself."
Everyone was surprised, and worried about Will choosing them.
"Obviously, I'm not picking myself, so... Anise, Ion, Daisy, and Dixie. You're all sitting out, and enjoying some food." noted Will.
Anise didn't think she was going to win anyway, so she was excited to be able to eat. The rest weren't entirely bothered by Will's decision, but Daisy whispered a few things to Dixie, who nodded in return.
"Okay, so that means, Will, Danielle, Lady, and Sindel will be the only ones competing today. Let's get started."
Everyone took their spots, and started to hold on. The ones Will sat out sat down at the large table of food. The feast contained chicken, wine, soda, turkey, sausage, and various amounts of fruit, meat, and vegetables.
"This challenge has begun..."
– 20 minutes in... –
Being dogs, Lady and Danielle were already struggling with holding onto the rod. Will and Sindel smirked at eachother, with Will giving a light thumbs up.
"Hold on Danielle," encouraged Lady, "You can do this. Don't give up. I may not be able to hold on much longer."
Danielle smiled, and gave a small nod, straining to hold on.
"The two humans, or I'm sorry, the human and edenian looking pretty good. The dogs, not so much." commented Jeff.
– 40 minutes in... –
Sindel was slowly losing some grip on her rod, while Will was looking fine as ever, which of course made Daisy all the more nervous.
One of the two dogs eventually dropped.
…
…
"Lady's out of the challenge, and we're down to three."
Lady gave her daughter a small little smile before sitting down beside Jeff.
– 1 hour in.. –
Danielle eventually found her comfort zone, and was trying her best to hold on, remembering her mother's words.
As for Sindel's her fingers kept slipping on the rod, thus lowering her bucket as she unspooled the rope. Will shook his head, whispering, "Come on... hold on!"
But she couldn't.
"Sindel drops after a great effort. Sindel's out, and we're down to two; Danielle and Will. The youngest contestant in the game, against considered one of the greatest players to ever play Survivor."
– 1 hour, 20 minutes in... –
Will's hands were slipping a little on the rope, knowing he needed this win more then ever now. He knew the target was going to build but he didn't care. It's better to be safe then sorry.
Danielle was struggling more then Will, but looked way more determined then he did. She had the words of her mother and her friends cheering her on, while Will only had Sindel.
In the end...
…
…
…
…
...Danielle just couldn't hold on.
"Danielle's out! WILL WINS HIS THIRD STRAIGHT IMMUNITY!"
Everyone clapped and cheered for Will.
"Great work once again, Will! For the third straight time, you have won individual immunity, and you cannot be voted off. Tonight, tribal council will come, and another player will say goodbye to their hopes and dreams. See you all tonight."
– – – – –
Galaxy Day 30
Once everyone got back from the immunity challenge, Daisy, Dixie, Danielle, and Lady all gathered under the shelter to discuss the vote.
"Once again, Will won immunity, so he's safe for another three days. Oh well, what are you gonna do about it? Especially with a paid advantage. So, as I've planned from the start, we're voting Sindel off tonight. If things change, well... we'll have a back up plan." - Daisy
"No further discussions between us four," explained Daisy, "Tonight, it'll be Sindel, and then Will as soon as he's vulnerable. We can't let them know about our plan. Ion's our fifth vote, so I think we'll be fine."
Lady nodded, "It's in our best interest, after all. Once Sindel's gone, there's no going back. We will be the Final 4."
"My only hope is Anise mistakenly playing her idol out of fear!" laughed Daisy.
"Sindel and Will have been floating and planning behind the scenes since Katherine was voted off. After Anise voted Diddy off, it's been all out war between us and them. Now that the dust has somewhat settled, we'll be finishing them off." - Dixie
"Danielle, tell Ion the plan, and if he tells Anise, that's fine with me," shrugged Daisy, "I'll handle Sindel and Will, and get them to target Ion or Anise. That way, if we decide it's better to go after them, we'll be prepared."
Danielle nodded quickly, "Okie dokie!" With that said, she left from the group, along with Daisy. This left Dixie and Lady in the shelter.
"So the plan tonight is to pretty much send Sindel home, and break her and Will up much sooner then expected. I would absolutely love to take Anise out next, since she's a big meanie, but... I gotta go with what the girls say!" - Danielle
A few minutes later, Danielle approached Anise and Ion, who were both sitting down by the beach examining sea shells.
"Hey guys! How are you both doing?" greeted Danielle, smiling.
Ion looked back and smiled, "Oh, hello! We're just collecting seashells to bring back home to our friends. They're really exotic."
"But really, I must ask, why did you come to us?" asked Anise, "I mean, you hardly ever approach us for no reason, right?"
"So Danielle was told to come talk to me and Ion, and I know she was. She hardly ever leaves that group of four, so it's like... whatever, just spit out what you wanna say, and we'll move on. I already know what's going on." - Anise
"I'm being 100% honest with you both. It's going to be Sindel tonight." confirmed Danielle.
Anise didn't make a response, while Ion nodded, "Sounds good to me, thank you for keeping us informed."
He shook Danielle's paw, and a little while of small talk, Danielle left the area.
Anise scoffed, crossing her arms, "That's a low of bull, Ion! Can't you see it? They're obviously going to pair us off against Sindel and Will tonight! Because I've been the baddest bitch recently, I'm probably going home."
"You can say over and over that Sindel is going home, but we all know she's not. She has nothing of value to be afraid of, unlike me! I have the hidden immunity idol, so I'm definitely going to pull a fast one tonight." - Anise
Ion shook his head, "Anise, don't... you aren't going anywhere. I know Danielle is telling the truth. We've made a promise to be honest to one another. If they were targeting you, she would've pulled me aside without you."
"Nuh uh! Ion, you can be so dense sometimes, and so trusting of others!" sneered Anise, "You'll be thanking me tonight after we're still both here!"
"Anise doesn't believe me when I tell her that Sindel is definitely the target. She believes I'm being naïve, and that I shouldn't trust anyone besides her. Frankly, she isn't the only one I trust. She needs to understand that I too have a vote here, as well as a say." - Ion
Meanwhile, Daisy was talking with Will and Sindel in the forest regarding the vote.
"You know, to be honest, I haven't really made up my mind on which one should go." shrugged Daisy.
Will crossed his arms, "Anise is annoying, probably has the idol still in her possession, while Ion can win challenges, and has the social skills Anise does not. Hmm... tricky tricky."
"It's between Anise and Ion tonight, and both have great reasons to vote off tonight. I would rather vote Ion off, simply because Anise could have the real idol back, and she's too selfish to use it on Ion." - Will
"It won't be too long until that brat does find the idol in her bag," replied Sindel, "Her partner has a brain after all, so it won't take long."
"If that's the case... why not just vote the brain off then?" suggested Daisy.
"That's what I was thinking," agreed Will, nodding his head, "Vote Ion off tonight, let Anise scream and holler, and then either watch her quit, or vote her off the next night."
Both Daisy and Sindel agreed with him, and they each shook hands before leaving the forest.
"I still haven't made up my mind tonight on whether or not I'm voting out Sindel or Ion tonight. I mean, we successfully managed to get both sides against eachother, but picking the right side will take some time." - Daisy

The Galaxy tribe arrived at tribal council.
"We'll bring in the members of the jury,"
"Diddy,"
Diddy sported a pink baseball cap and t-shirt with yellow stars.
"Sunil,"
Sunil was wearing only a buttoned white t-shirt, holding Pepper's hand, who was behind him.
"And Pepper, voted out at the last tribal council."
Pepper was wearing gold ear-rings, and a sparkly green dress. She didn't look entirely happy to be dolled up, but she didn't make it a big deal.
"We've reached the 30 day mark, and there's only nine days left before the end of the game. Anise, you played a fake idol at the last vote. What happened when you came back to camp?" asked Jeff.
"Well Jeffrey? I was very pissed off, as you would imagine! It's all a game, but I never imagined to get the hidden immunity idol, and have it turn out fake! I knew it was a trap." replied Anise.
Daisy nodded, not surprised.
"Lady, today at the auction, you gave all of your money up to buy Danielle a banana split. Feeling like that move could cost you at the end?" asked Jeff.
Lady shook her head.
"I don't believe so. I was merely giving Danielle what she wanted, as she didn't have the money to bid for it. I found it very rude of Anise to outbid her like that." replied Lady.
"Oh shut up! I did not outbid her on purpose!" shouted Anise.
"Anise, you had a devious expression on your face when you did it. Don't lie to me like that." replied Lady, glaring at her.
Anise crossed her arms, pouting.
"Daisy, has Anise been the center of conflict lately?" asked Jeff.
"Oh Jeff, you act like you don't know any better! But yeah, she has. Pretty much, if your name isn't Ion, you hate her. She's disrespectful, rude, lazy, and just so whiny. She may not be going tonight, but she's going soon." replied Daisy.
Anise scoffed, but didn't reply.
"Ion, if it's you tonight, do you think it's because of Anise's recent behavior?" asked Jeff.
Ion shook his head.
"Not at all. I believe the others are smart enough to know why I would be a real target." replied Ion.
"Okay, it's time to vote, Ion, you're up."
– – –
Daisy's Vote: All part of the game! (?)
Ion's Vote: I really hope Anise is smart enough to know she's not going anywhere... (Sindel)
Sindel's Vote: You seem like a loyal subject. Too bad you couldn't of been mine. (Ion)

"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. But soon, Anise sighed, and stood up, grabbing her idol out of her pocket.
"I'm sorry, Jeff! But I wasn't given a choice!" said Anise, giving the idol to Jeff.
Daisy shrugged, snickering to herself quietly.
"The rules of Survivor state, that if someone plays the hidden immunity idol, all votes cast against the person will not count, and the person with the second most votes will go home. This is indeed a hidden immunity idol this time. Any votes cast against Anise, will not count."
"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, Sindel. (She nodded, crossing her arms.)
…
Sindel. Two votes Sindel.
…
…
Ion. One vote Ion, two votes Sindel. (Ion was shocked, as well as Anise, who buried her face in her hands.)
…
Ion. Tied two votes Ion, two votes Sindel. ("Damn it.." muttered Anise, who was very upset.)
…
…
Sindel. Three votes Sindel, two votes Ion.
…
Sindel. That's four votes Sindel, two votes Ion. (Will was a little surprised now, as was Sindel. Anise looked up to watch the votes, less upset.)
…
Thirteenth person voted out of Survivor Blood vs. Water, and the fourth member of our jury, Queen Sindel. That's five, and that's enough. You need to hand me your torch.
Sindel growled a little bit, standing up and taking her torch, "Not sure if any of you should win. Well... maybe Will."
"Sindel, the tribe has spoken."
He snuffed out her torch.
"Time for you to go."
Sindel left the area almost immediately, and once she was far enough away, she let out one of her supersonic screams one last time.
"Looks like tonight, there were a few surprises, and an idol wasted. Maybe this is how intense the rest of the season will turn out to be? Grab your torches, and head on back. Good night."

Sindel's Final Words
"Oh how I would've loved to of played this game with my wonderful daughter Kitana. Such a pity they were all cowards and had to send her home too soon! I will admit I wasn't as proud of my game as I was in Edenia, but I wasn't planning it being better. I could care less about who wins."
VOTE
Ion – Sindel and Will
Sindel – Dixie, Danielle, Anise, Ion, Lady, and Daisy
