Disclaimer - MYEHHHHH!
So, I have 1,000 views! Excellent milestone, even if most of the viewers only clicked on the first chapter and then quickly left, but thank you to everyone who actually read past chapter one.
Here is the next chapter, and another elimination. Who will it be?
DUN-DUN-DUN!
Tia continued to dig, and she couldn't help but notice Aleksander was staring at her.
"I'm ignoring you," Tia said sharply. "I am now turning away."
"I wouldn't do that if I were you," replied Aleksander. "There's…"
"Whatever," Tia groaned, and she turned away anyway. Immediately she saw Kelija beside her hole. The cat leapt on Tia's face and scraped at her.
"AH, HELP!" Tia cried, and she ran around the beach screaming.
"I tried to warn her," Aleksander sighed as he continued to dig
Tia went on running around the beach and tripping over people's holes until she accidentally ran into Katerina.
"Tia, what is going on!?" Katerina asked angrily, and then she looked at Kelija, who had since leapt off Tia's face and was playing dead on the sand.
"Look, you've frightened her!" Katerina said angrily. "I wish you two would be along."
Tia sighed, and she crawled back to her hole.
[Bus Toilet:
Tia (Bulgaria): You may have won this round, cat, but I will get you for this!
Kelija [sticks out her tongue and spits at the camera]]
Amanda was not managing the sand very well.
"Wow, this is hard work," Amanda sighed. "I usually get people to do my dirty work for me."
"I'm halfway through my first hole," Marios cheered from a few metres away.
"Whatever," Amanda groaned as she continued to attempt to dig.
[Bus Toilet:
Amanda (Sweden): How did Marios finish so fast? I mean, his arms are like chicken legs!
Marios (Greece): [panting] That was not easy, but anything to prevent me from getting voted off.]
Johannes wiped some more sweat off his forehead and he continued to cope with the heat. He was used to living in a cold climate so he wasn't used to this heat. Only his fedora was protecting him from the rays of the sun, and Johannes could feel sweat building up inside it.
The heat was definitely getting to everyone, and they were starting to experience visions from the past:
Tyge continued to shovel slop into the pigsty. His family owned six pigs, all of which were incredibly greedy and were gobbling down the slop no sooner had Tyge given it to them.
"Calm down, hogs," he said. "There's plenty here for everyone."
"Tyge," his mom called from the kitchen. "Pete is at the door."
Tyge put down the shovel, and wiped his feet on the doormat.
He passed his sister, who was busy sewing.
"No, I pricked my finger again!" she cried.
"Allis," her mom said angrily. "I thought I told you not to play around with the sewing machine."
"Excuse me," Allis replied rudely. "I'm just trying to make my hand-me-downs look nice. Cousin Bella sure did wear them out."
Tyge also passed his brother Marc, of who was in the front yard and re-wiring the barbecue.
"What are you doing?" his dad asked him curiously.
"I'm trying to turn the barbecue into a video-game," Marc replied.
"And how are you going to do that?" his dad asked.
"I'm using a wiring tutorial that I found on the internet," Marc answered.
"Have you been using your phone internet again?" his dad asked angrily. "You do realize that it costs a fortune."
"Relax, pops," his son answered. "I got the money from running errands for Mr and Mrs Christiansen. They are loaded from ripping-off kids with their candy."
"Hey, Pete, what's up?" Tyge asked his friend, who was at the front door.
"Did you hear? David committed suicide," Pete said urgently.
"I know, I heard," Tyge replied. "It's such a bummer. He was awesome at Super Mario Bros. 3."
"Bummer," Pete repeated, raising his eyebrows. "Is that the least you can say?"
"Well, he's not the first guy in the village to have killed himself," Tyge noted. "I sorta used all the good lines with the others."
"He's having a funeral mass next Saturday," Pete said as he lit a cigarette. "I…"
"Dude, I've told you to stop smoking!" Tyge complained.
"I know," replied Pete. "But I've just been really stressed the last few days. Our cow just gave birth to seven calves and they've been pooping everywhere, and guess who has to pick it up?"
"You," Tyge replied, and then he shook his head. "That's not the point! Cigarettes make you smell and they're not even good for you! Get rid of it right now!"
Pete groaned. Tyge was usually a chilled-out guy but there was something about cigarettes that made him go berserk. Pete also never understood why Tyge has never gotten into smoking. He did just as much labour as himself, if not more. How come he was never stressed?
"Okay, I'm not smoking," Pete said, and he threw the cigarette into one of the cigarette bins on the street.
"I know you always carry around two packets," Tyge snapped, and Pete sighed and he reached into his pocket and pulled out a packet of Marlboros and a packet of Benson and Hedges.
"I like to mix and match sometimes," Pete explained.
"I don't care!" Tyge yelled, and he tapped the side of one of the boxes, which had a notice that was in Norwegian but translated as 'Smoking kills'.
"See this notice, it's there's for a reason!"
"Calm down, man. You're worse than my cousin Agatha after Norway didn't qualify for the finals of Eurovision."
Tyge rolled his eyes and threw all of the cigarettes in the bin. Pete groaned because he'd paid 400 krónas for them but he knew there was no point in arguing with Tyge.
Tyge's dad was one of the bossiest people he had ever met but somehow Tyge had managed to scare him into quitting smoking.
Tyge returned to his normal tone. "So," he said cheerfully. "What are you wearing to the funeral?"
"I dunno. I don't think I own anything nice," Pete sighed.
"My sister's making me a new suit," Tyge said proudly. "Allis is really good at sewing. She once made a halter top out of Coke cans."
"I know. I've heard that one twenty times," Pete replied. Tyge had a bad habit of bragging about his sister, but he knew cared a lot about his siblings. There wasn't much he could say. He had an older brother and sister who were twins and they loved nothing more than to get him into trouble,
Tyge shook his head and continued to dig. He was getting pretty far with it. It would still be an hour at least before he finished, but he felt focused.
"I can do this," he said out loud.
The camera zoomed out from his hole and landed in Sanna's hole. Since she couldn't crawl into her hole she had to dig from her chair which wasn't easy.
"Why me?" she said to herself before getting a vision from the past
"Wheeeeeeeeeee!" Sanna cheered, as her friends Meliss and Bjasmin pushed her down a ramp outside the dressing room.
They were at the national selection where they'd pick the Danish entrant for Euro-Drama Roadtrip. A lot of boys and girls at their school had sent in audition tapes in hope of getting chosen. Sanna, Meliss and Bjasmin were amongst them.
A month ago Cartoon Network had announced the shortlists for Norway, Sweden, Iceland, Finland and Denmark on a special hour-long TV show.
There were ten spots at the selection for Danish entrants, and Sanna was the only person in her school who had been selected.
Boy, had Jeti (the most popular girl in school) been jealous.
Anyway, Sanna felt confident enough at her chances of winning, but she knew there was a guy in the selection called Kristophie who may have been a threat to that.
He was a Lego architect from the suburbs of Aarhus and he showcased his many creations in a special presentation where he showed them videos of him building magnificent pieces of art.
He had created statues of the Little Mermaid (minus the nips), Emmelie de Forrest and even Emmelie de Forrest with a mermaid body.
Emmelie had been one of the judges and she said the next thing he should create should be the Olsen Brothers as brother bears
The audience had laughed at that, though Sanna didn't really understand why it was so funny.
Anyways, she knew he was the favourite but she still thought she was in with a shot.
Bjasmin pushed Sanna down the ramp again.
"Yes, this is fun!" Sanna cheered as Meliss caught her, and then she shushed them. "I can hear talking," she whispered.
"I dunno, Martin, she seems to be pretty popular on Twitter," said a voice inside one of the dressing rooms, which Sanna recognized as Kristophie's. "Plus, she's got a great bust. She'll surely get guy-votes for that."
"Oh, bust schmust," another guy (who Sanna assumed was Martin) replied. "When it comes down to it, she'll be pretty useless. So what she's a pretty face, she can't use her legs."
"I guess," Kristophie replied.
"I mean, could you imagine her swimming? She'd probably drown before getting into the water," Martin continued.
"Yeah, that's true too," Kristophie laughed. "Okay, I guess she won't win then. I think the audience will have enough sense."
Sanna couldn't believe what she was hearing, and knocked on the door.
"That must be the pizza," Kristophie exclaimed, and he walked over. "I hope the deliverer is the hot one with the blue stripes in her hair."
He opened the door confidently, and he was shocked when he saw who it was.
"Sanna…hey…" Kristophie said awkwardly. "So…"
"Be cool," Martin whispered aloud. "She probably didn't hear."
"Oh, I heard alright!" Sanna yelled. "How could you even say that?"
"It wasn't me," Kristophie protested. "It was my friend."
"Hey!" Martin yelled angrily.
"You agreed with him," Sanna pointed out.
"Well…um…it's not like your friends are any better," Martin interrupted. "See your friend on the right. She ate all of the coffee cake at lunchtime. And then she had the lemon cake."
"Are you calling me fat?" Bjasmin asked angrily.
"MAYBE!" yelled Martin
"Okay, that's it, we're out of here!" Sanna exclaimed, and Meliss and Bjasmin followed.
Sanna was still in her vision, but the anger from it was making her dig faster.
The camera left her hole and zoomed into Luko's hole.
He was thinking about last night at the hospital
Luko lay in the hospital bed, watching cartoons on the TV.
He was currently watching Adventure Time. He didn't actually know what they were saying because it was dubbed in Greek, but he'd seen the episode before so he still found it funny.
He was wearing a white hospital gown, which kind of reminded him of a Snuggie. He felt relaxed, like he'd been given a well-deserved break from the show.
That's when the doctor came into his ward.
"Hey, what's up doc?" Luko asked.
The doctor started speaking in a miserable voice. Luko couldn't understand what he was saying because he was speaking Greek.
"Excuse me, do you speak English?" Luko asked. "Or Serbian? Croatian will do as well."
"Oh," the doctor said, and he walked off.
A nurse came back into the room.
She had long blonde hair and fishnet stockings
'Sexy,' Luko thought in his head, but unlike Pavils, he was smart enough not to say it out loud.
"Hello…um…Luko, is it?" the nurse asked.
"Yes," Luko nodded.
"It's bad news," the nurse replied.
"Oh no, am I dying?" Luko asked in shock.
"No, it's not that bad," the nurse continued. "You have type 2-diabetes."
"What are diabetes?" Luko asked.
"Oh, it's a condition where you have high blood sugar," the nurse explained, but Luko still looked confused.
"Basically, you may never be able to eat sugar again," the nurse said calmly, but that did not help.
Luko let out an almighty yell – "NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!"
With that, the camera went from Luko and over to Tia.
Tia's vision wasn't from the past. It was more of a made-up nightmare.
Katerina stood in the middle of the wrestling ring, dressed in a black-and-white referee's uniform.
"Ladies and gentlemen, welcome to the fight of the season – woman versus cat!"
"In the red corner – a punk-rocker with nine piercings, all the way from Bulgaria, Tia the Tiger!"
"You're going down, cat!" Tia yelled.
"And in the blue corner – a ginger striped Persian, currently in residence in the Former Yugoslav Republic of Macedonia, Kelija the Cat!"
"Neow!" Kelija purred triumphantly.
"Okay, get ready in 3…2…1…FIGHT!"
Immediately, Kelija pounced on Tia's face.
"Arrggghh, get her off! Get her off! GET HER OFF!"
"Calm down, Tia," said Katerina. "She's only playing the game."
"Oh yeah!?" Tia yelled, and she pulled Katerina off of her face and threw her on the ground.
"1…2…3…" the crowd exclaimed. "4…5…6…7…8…9…KO!"
Tia cheered, but then she saw Katerina's face.
"Well done," Katerina said angrily, and she carried Kelija to the infirmary.
Tia got back into reality, and she shivered at the thought of it actually happening.
She continued to dig at a reasonable pace, but one person who wasn't succeeding was Hadi.
He was too busy thinking about his school.
Hadi continued to ride in the janitor's cart.
He found it was a great form of transport. Not only did it prevent bullies from seeing him, but it saved him all of the walking.
"Is this your classroom?" the janitor asked him.
"No," Hadi replied. "It's on the next right. I can't tell you how much I appreciate this."
"No problem," the janitor replied. "I'm Palestinian too so I know how you feel."
A group of boys came up the corridor. There were five of them.
"Where did that Arabic ******* go?" the leader asked. He was small with dark blonde hair and white skin.
'Tamon,' Hadi thought angrily. Tamon used to be his best friend before they went to high school.
He used to get teased a lot like Hadi, mainly because he was small and skinny and, well, most of the kids at Hadi's school liked to pick on people no matter what the cost was.
He remembered they used to nickname him 'Tampon'. But then Tamon's dad made an investment with a brush company who had invented bath toys with bristles that could wash yourself while you played with it. It was a huge success in Israel and even made it in Lebanon and Jordan. Tamon's family soon became very rich and Tamon used this to his advantage.
He paid the bullies of the school to become his servants and the power got to his head and he grew to enjoy Hadi suffering.
"Okay, this is my stop," Hadi whispered to the janitor.
"No it isn't!" Tamon exclaimed, and two of his cronies pulled Hadi out of the cart. "Your stop is at Swirly-ville. You didn't think you'd get off that easily, did you?"
"What is your problem anyway?" Hadi asked angrily. "Ever since you got all that money you've become a spoiled brat."
"Did anyone hear that? It's an Arab talking," one of his cronies said.
"Yeah, nothing you say matters," another one said.
(Racism was a huge problem at this school)
"Besides, I don't see your problem," said Tamon. "If it had been you who'd won the money, you would have done the same."
Hadi knew that wasn't true. When Tamon first announced that his dad had invested in the brush company, Hadi had imagined what he'd do with the money. He remembered thinking about going to Disneyland Paris or buying a flat-screen TV. Not getting revenge on Tamon.
"I don't know if you realized this yet, but I was only pretending to be friends with you so I wouldn't be a loner, but now I don't need you anymore because I've got all the friends I want now!" Tamon said sharply.
"They're not your friends, they're…" protested Hadi, before Tamon placed his hand over Hadi's mouth.
"You say no more!" yelled Tamon. "Take him away boys!"
Hadi sighed as four of Tamon's henchmen dragged him away by his limbs to the boy's bathroom.
"I'm finished my first hole!" Mirzo exclaimed. "Is it okay if I take a short break?"
"Sure, we're not stopping you," Tia said as she continued to imagine getting revenge on Kelija.
"I'm finished too!" Marios exclaimed. "I'm going to go onto another hole now!"
"I think I just finished as well," said Tyge. "I guess I may as well do another one!"
"That's the spirit, Tyge!" Marios yelled. "Do it already!"
Tyge stared at him weirdly.
"Too much?" Marios asked, blushing, and then he started to dig the next hole.
[Bus Toilet:
Marios (Greece): I know I'm over-reacting, but Amanda is going to try and boot me off. I hope I'm not turning into Courtney. She is by far my least favourite character of the original cast.
To this day, I wish it had been Courtney who had been voted off first, transformed into an obnoxious rapper and later into a creepy beast. Oh well, I guess you can't get everything in life.
*he sighs*]
"Phew, I'm wrecked," Sanna sighed as she finished off her hole.
"There's a water cooler in a nearby shack," said Tyge.
"Oh, thanks," Sanna replied. "The heat was really getting to me. I was starting to have hallucinations about the past."
"Yeah, so did I," said Tyge. "I had to re-live David's funeral. He was a guy in my village who committed suicide."
"Oh," Sanna said sadly. "I went back to the moment when I heard Kristophie making mean remarks about me. I'm going to get some water."
"Okay, I'm going to dig another hole," said Tyge, and he walked over to a new spot, dragging his spade behind him. The new spot was next to Johannes, who was also having a mirage.
Johannes continued to dig his hole. He was halfway through, which he felt satisfied with, since he wasn't very strong.
"Hi Johannes," said a voice behind him.
Johannes gasped. Behind him, he saw a lady wearing a white blouse and leggings.
"Momma?" he said nervously. "What are you doing here?"
"Oh, I'm not real. You're just imagining me from the heat," she replied. "So, how's the game so far?"
"Erm…not bad," Johannes replied. He still couldn't believe what was happening.
"You know, our family could really use 1 million euros," said Momma. "It would really help fund our fishing business. But I want you to know something."
"And what's that?" Johannes asked, stuttering.
"I want you to win this fairly," his mom answered. "I know your talent is useful and all, but I don't want it to get to your head. You don't want the team to turn against you or anything. The kid from Israel is wearing earplugs because of you."
"I guess that's a good point," Johannes said. "Say, could you grab a spade and help me? I'm getting pretty tired."
"You do realize that I'm not real," she said. "Goodbye Johannes. I'll see you when you get home. Hopefully you'll be 1 million euros richer at that point. That equals to about 10 million krónas if I'm not mistaken."
"Bye," Johannes replied awkwardly, and he continued to dig.
"Dude?" said a voice above him. It was Tyge.
"Oh, hi," Johannes said, blushing. "Did you hear all of that?"
"Most of it," Tyge replied. "Were you having an 'allucination?"
"How did you know?" Johannes asked.
"You're not the only one who had one," Tyge replied. "Well, I best be gettin' back to my hole."
"Okay," Johannes replied.
[Bus Toilet:
Johannes (Iceland): That was really weird. Was it a message from above?
Tyge (Norway): Johannes sure didn't seem to enjoy his vision. I hope he's okay.]
A few of the contestants who had finished their first hole were chatting by the water cooler.
"Woah, that was intense!" Marios gasped.
"I thought it was easy," Lou replied. "I just thought about something else to keep my mind off it."
"Oh, the power of being naïve," Tia sighed, as she gulped down her cup of water. "I could hardly focus. I kept having these weird visions."
"Oh, I had one too," said Sanna. "I imagined that I was back at the national selection hearing what Kristophie said about me."
"I had one where I was wrestling Kelija," Tia replied. "That cat drives me insane! She is out to get me!"
"Erm…okay," Sanna replied, and she slowly wheeled herself away.
[Bus Toilet:
Sanna (Denmark): Yes, I saw when Kelija jumped on Tia's face; I can't believe Katerina missed it!
Still, Tia's taking it a bit too seriously. I mean, it's just a cat
Aleksander (Albania): Ha, cat fight! Literally!]
Zeferino continued to dig, when his shovel stopped digging.
"Ugh, there's a huge rock in the way!" Zeferino complained.
"Here, I'll help you get it out," said Mirzo, and he jumped into Zeferino's hole and helped him dig.
"Wait, that's not a rock – it's the treasure chest!" Zeferino cheered. "Guess what guys, we won!"
"YEAH, I'M SAFE!" Marios cheered. "Oh…um…sorry."
"That was not suspicious," Amanda said as loudly and as sarcastically as she could.
[Bus Toilet:
Amanda (Sweden): Just a bit of extra insurance *wink*]
"Well, it looks like we're the winners!" Tyge cheered. "Yeah!"
"Yes, this'll be the year for small countries!" Berto exclaimed.
"Not so fast!" Ruben announced from his helicopter. "I clearly stated before the challenge that all of the contestants must complete their holes in order to be able to claim their treasure chest.
Amanda, Lou, Johannes, Berto, Tyge. Sanna and Marios, you seven have all completed your holes, and Zeferino gets a free pass since he found the treasure. Hadi, however, is still digging! The Eastern Emus are free to claim it for themselves."
"And that is just what we've done!" Dani exclaimed. She had moved the chest to beside her hole, and was sitting on it.
"Hey, give that back!" Amanda protested.
"Make me," Dani replied smugly. "I'm just playin' by the rules."
"Well, looks like we win," said Agnessa, shrugging.
"Not so fast, Emus!" Ruben exclaimed. "Despite the fact that Mirzo, Tia, Luko, Dani, Anka, Agnessa, Stela, Katerina and ADRIJANA have finished their hole…"
He paused for a moment so he could let the camera move to Adrijana, who jumped out of her hole and gasped for breath.
[Bus Toilet:
Adrijana (Slovenia): I was buried down there for five minutes and I only had a tiny hole to breathe through. But did anybody notice? NO!
And then, somehow, all the sand comes up and I have a perfect hole. Great, just great!]
"…but Aleksander is still digging his hole," Ruben added.
"Come on, Alex, we don't have all day," Anka sighed.
"I'm in no rush," Aleksander replied. "After all, if you lose me, you lose my cooking, and that wouldn't be good at all."
Anka bent down into the hole and grabbed Aleksander's right ear and twisted it sharply.
"ARRRRGGGHHH, DON'T DO THAT!" Aleksander yelled.
Anka let go and said – "If we don't win this challenge, I'll hang you to the ceiling by your earring."
"If you do that, then I'll stop cooking," Aleksander replied.
"Oh, don't try that again!" Stela yelled. "We all know that's the reason you're still in the game! Now dig your hole now!"
Aleksander gulped and dug as fast as he could, which was actually quite fast.
"Please, Hadi," Marios pleaded. "You're nearly there. We've gotta get this victory."
"Marios, calm down," Amanda said. "It's not the end of the world."
"Oh, shut it!" Marios snapped.
[Bus Toilet:
Marios (Greece): Yep, I'm totally turning into Courtney. [He shudders]]
Hadi and Aleksander continued to pant as they tried to finish off their holes.
Meanwhile, Dani and Johannes were fighting over the chest.
"Come on ma'am," Johannes said smoothly. "Just gimme the chest."
"Huh?" Dani asked, before Johannes grabbed the chest off of her.
"Oh, get back here!" Dani yelled, and she grabbed the chest back, whilst screaming "Lalalalalalala," so she wouldn't have to listen to Johannes.
"Hadi, you can do it!" Tyge exclaimed.
"Aleksander, do it or else!" Anka screamed.
Dani and Johannes continued to tug the chest, while Hadi and Aleksander continued to dig. In the end, the first person to complete their hole was…
…
…
…
…
…Hadi!"
"Done!" he exclaimed
"Yes!" Johannes cheered, and Dani grabbed the chest while he was distracted.
"Done!" Aleksander exclaimed not long after.
"NO!" Johannes screamed, and he fell to the ground and banged his fists.
"And the Eastern Emus win!" Ruben announced. "Aleksander, Mirzo, Tia, Katerina, Adrijana, Luko, Dani, Anka, Agnessa and Stela – you are all safe for another night!
Amanda, Lou, Johannes, Berto, Tyge, Zeferino, Sanna, Hadi and Marios, you are all on the chopping block. Who will leave? We shall found out in a few short hours – don't forget to cast your votes! By the way, tonight's voters will only be the Western Wallabies. The Eastern Emus don't get to vote tonight!"
[Bus Toilet:
Amanda (Sweden): I think I've got Marios set up for a good fall. But I still have to be absolutely certain, and I know exactly who can help me]
Most of the contestants were still on the beach, but Sanna and Tyge had decided to stay behind and admire the sunset.
They were both sitting on Sanna's wheelchair, and Tyge had a tear in his eye.
"Are you okay?" Sanna asked.
"I'm sorry, but the sunset is so pretty," Tyge sniffed. "It's the third most beautiful thing I have ever seen. You're the first!"
"Oh, thank you," Sanna replied sweetly, and then they made out for a bit, before Sanna stopped and said – "Wait, so what's the second most beautiful thing?"
"Oh, just a rose I saw in my garden once," Tyge replied, fixing his beanie. "I gave it to David's mother at his funeral."
"Is David the one who committed suicide?" Sanna asked.
"Yes," Tyge sighed.
"Well, I'm sorry," Sanna replied, and they made out again.
Johannes had his sweatpants rolled up as he dipped his feet in the water. He was sitting on the dock and he tried to wash the sweat out of his fedora.
While he was digging he was sweating so much that his hat was filled to the brim with sweat.
"You know, washing out your hat with sea-water isn't gonna make it much better," said a voice behind him.
"Amanda," Johannes said, putting his fedora back on. "What do you want?"
"I was wondering if you'd help me with something," Amanda replied. "I think you'd benefit from this too. You see, Marios has been going around spreading these nasty rumours about me as you may know, but he's also been making a few about you. He said your fedora…um…made you look like a detective from a 1950s Sci-Fi film."
"How is that an insult?" Johannes asked, raising an eyebrow.
"Marios seemed to think it was," Amanda lied. "And he's still hurting my feelings. He keeps telling everyone that I'm evil and…well…it hurts me."
"Amanda, just how gullible do you think I am?" Johannes asked angrily.
"Oh, so you're on my side?" Amanda asked hopefully.
"What? No, and you know it!" Johannes yelled angrily. "I know Marios is telling the truth, and I could convince the whole team to vote you off…"
Amanda gasped.
"…but I'm not going to. It would pain me to see a Scandinavian get booted so early. However, I'm still not voting off Marios. I know you've been messing with his head on purpose, and he's got a load of useful talents. But I'll still help you vote someone off."
"Okay, I guess that'll do," Amanda sighed.
"I just hope you know the sacrifices I'm making," Johannes snapped. "Everyone's gonna think I'm the villain after this. You totally owe me one, Amanda!
[Bus Toilet:
Amanda (Sweden): So the bad news is that Johannes knows that I'm a villain, but at least I'm safe for another night.
I still wish I could have voted off Marios
Marios (Greece): Okay, that's it, I'm going home! I may as well take my elimination with good grace. *sighs*
Johannes (Iceland): I think I've convinced enough people. I still hope Amanda knows that she owes me. I'm not an idiot like Stela or Anka. And yes, I know about their alliance. It's obvious.]
When Sanna and Tyge got back to the bus, Ruben was standing before the contestants.
"Sanna and Tyge, glad to see you're back," Ruben said. "We're just about to announce the results. Sit down and I'll reveal the votes.
As you know, the contestants who does not receive a marshmallow must get a taxi and a plane out of here.
The following of you are safe –
Sanna
Tyge
Zeferino
Hadi
Johannes
Berto
Marios."
"What? For real?" Marios gasped. "Well…thanks."
The only two left were Amanda and Lou.
"So, only one marshmallow left. Will it go to Amanda or Lou?
I can now reveal that the final marshmallow goes to…
…
…
…
…
…
…
…
…
…
…
…Amanda!"
Amanda smiled as she caught her marshmallow.
"What, but why?" Lou asked in shock.
Everyone stared at Johannes angrily.
"I've a feeling SOMEBODY has been messing with our heads during the voting!" Sanna yelled angrily. "Johannes!"
Johannes stomped over to the Bus Toilet and opened the door and stomped in
[Bus Toilet:
Johannes (Iceland): Amanda is such a *****. Everyone is going to turn against me now thanks to her. I'm thinking of telling everyone what she made me do, but they're not going to believe me.
Besides, Amanda owes me one. I don't know what she owes me yet, but it'll be good.]
"Well, I guess I'm leaving now," Lou sighed. "Oh well. At least I beat Pavils."
"Bye Lou!" a few people exclaimed, and the Cypriot stepped off the bus.
"So," Ruben said to the camera. "Lou is the next to leave Euro-Drama Roadtrip. Thankfully, Cyprus is a small country, and most Cypriots will probably start rooting for Greece, so I'll probably be safe from the angry e-mails for another day.
Thanks Johannes!
But what, why, where, when and who will be going next?
Did that sentence even make sense?
Find out next time on Euro…Drama…Roadtrip!"

So, Lou is the next to leave. I'm really sad to see him go, because he was one of my favourite characters. He really developed over the eleven episodes he was in.
The following have been eliminated so far -
Jessie, Anton, Eloise, Rikard, Shay, Symon, Alma, Emilia, Pavils, Lou.
Only eighteen contestants remain.
Next time, we're going to Israel to meet with some familiar faces. That's right, some of the classic contestants will make appearances - but which ones will they be, and what have they been up to since their departure?
Find out next time...
Until then, please review (The longer the better), favourite and follow. I mean, if you want. ;-)
