Hibachi Tribe - Day Twenty-Three
Everyone was woken up that morning by a roaring engine approaching the camp.
Lola: I think that's your boat.
Logan: *yawn* Good, 'cause I'm starving. Quinn, get up!
Quinn: Ugh...I'm up...
Logan: you sure you don't want in on the reward, Kitty?
Cat: I'm sure and please don't call me that.
Logan: Whatever, let's go!
Logan got up and almost had to drag Quinn out of the shelter in order to get on the boat for the reward.
Michael: Bye guys! Have fun!
Lola: Finally...I've been dying for a day without him here.
Tori: Well, since we're already up now...I'm going to get some coconuts...
Andre: Me too...
Michael: No way, you guys have to baby-sit Chase! Quinn and I did it yesterday!
Tori: Really? Who was the one who was trying to rock him to sleep all last night when he wouldn't stop moaning? Me!
Michael: Who were the ones who had to feed him his rice BY HAND because he wouldn't take it himself?
Tori: I talked to him, I gave him his water, I apologized to him, I gave him my share of the ONLY fish we caught yesterday, what more do you want? You act like we don't spend any time with him!
Michael: You don't! I'm serious! You come into the shelter and spend TWO seconds with us and then you think you can just leave and go galloping off with your friend!
Tori: The whole night does NOT count as two seconds!
Chase: ...*moan*
Tori: Later!
Michael: Wait! You come back here!
Tori had already gotten out of the shelter and run down the beach "to look for coconuts." Andre looked at Michael, shrugged and then ran after Tori.
Jade: Did that argument really just happen?
Lola: Yep, we're officially on crack. I'll go after them.
Lola got up to follow them.
Meanwhile, away from the shelter, Andre and Tori found a tree with plenty of coconuts and started to work on getting them down. Tori climbed the tree to shake coconuts off of the branches while Andre found a large thick stick that he could use to try and knock coconuts off. They started to talk while they were working.
Tori: I think this is our best chance to try and get Lola to flip while two of the other four people are away.
Andre: Why Lola?
Tori: Because she's the most likely to flip I think. If we vote against Logan, she might join us. They hate each other. This way, we take out a huge threat and we have the numbers.
Andre: But why now? After that argument, she probably thinks we're crazy.
Tori: We've been out here for twenty-three days with only so much to eat and drink. Of course we're all going to start going crazy.
Tori: I would love for Lola to flip to our side. I actually see a lot of myself in her so we could get along great and work well in this game. At the same time, we could conflict just as easily but I'm willing to take that chance.
Just as Andre and Tori started putting together a decent pile of coconuts together, Lola had finally caught up by following them.
Lola: Hey guys.
Tori: Hey Lola.
Lola: How many coconuts you guys got so far?
Andre: About 20 I think.
Lola: Cool. I'll bring them back to camp.
Tori: Hey Lola, before you go...
Lola: Yeah?
Tori: Would you consider joining us to get rid of Logan? We know how much you guys hate each other.
Lola: Oh my goodness, I've been waiting to ask you guys if I could! I'm so glad we're on the same page!
Andre: So we're good?
Lola: Absolutely!
Tori: Cool. Thanks!
Lola scooped up about five coconuts and carried them back to camp.
Andre: Well, that was easy.
Tori: Yeah...almost too easy...She could be lying to us and this whole Logan/Lola feud is just an act.
Andre: Let's not think about it for now. Whether they're lying or not, we can't do much about it. Let's just take our focus off the game for a while and just get coconuts.
Tori: But we have to stay focused if we want to stay in the game.
Andre: Life isn't going to be over if we lose.
Tori: I guess...
Lola: For now, I told them I was on their side but it's not guaranteed yet. I really want to consider flipping because the other guys seem cooler than the people I've had to live with for eighteen days. If I couldn't win, I'd rather someone from Havic wins than my own tribe. The only question is if it's the right move for me.
Andre: Tori got Lola to flip...but it seemed almost too easy. I don't know if I trust Lola. But I have no choice right now. Tori is so focused on this game and the game requires us to get someone on our side. Still, I wish Tori could just relax a bit...
Reward Trip
Logan and Quinn were basking in the sunlight as the boat carried them to their reward. Eventually, the boat reached a sandy bank with a beautifully decorated king-sized bed.
Quinn: Kind of interesting that to have such a magnificent bed out here.
Logan: Sure is. Let's get in.
Logan climbed into the bed and under the sheets. Quinn very reluctantly climbed in after him.
Logan: Gotta admit, it's a very nice bed. Kinda miss sleeping in these.
Quinn: So where's the food?
Logan: Sweet! I see them coming now!
Five butlers came to them, all carrying large silver trays. The first tray had a huge assortment of pastries such as danishes, doughnuts, and muffins. The second tray had several fresh cut fruits including strawberries, grapes, pineapples, melons, oranges and apples. The third tray carried several hot items such as bacon, sausage and eggs. The fourth tray carried a stack of pancakes and a stack of waffles, along with syrup, butter and jelly. And the fifth tray had several beverages such as milk, various fruit juices and coffee. The butlers either placed the tray on the bed or set up tables next to the bed to place the food. They also provided plates, cups and silverware. They then wished Logan and Quinn well and went on their way.
Logan: This is insane! Where do we even start!
Quinn: I'm not sure. Just grab things and eat them, I guess.
Logan quickly piled food onto his plate and started shoving them in his mouth a quickly as he could. Quinn casually took a few fruits and pastries and put them on her plate. She took small bites as if she were thinking.
Quinn: Can I ask you something?
Logan: Shoot.
Quinn: Why do you act the way you do? Is this how you are in your normal life?
Logan stopped eating and paused.
Logan: Where'd this come from? You hate me as much as anyone else here does. Why do you care?
Quinn: Just curious.
Logan: *sigh* All right, here's the deal. The way I grew up was very privileged. Lots of money, lots of girls, lots of friends, you get the idea. But my family kind of used the money to distance me. Whatever I wanted was what I got and I got used to it. So you could say I'm spoiled which clearly translates out here. But the biggest issue was that my parents used the money to create that distance. We didn't feel much like a family; just a group of people in the same house with a bunch of money. That's why I take it out on so many people because I hear stories about your families and I'm envious. That good enough for you?
Quinn: What about the sexism?
Logan: That's for another time, Quinn.
Quinn: Getting a bit closer to Logan is a strategic move because I feel it would be smart for me to use him as a shield to keep attention off of me, plus I can use him to my advantage. It was also good to learn some things personally about him.
Logan: I thought it was strange that she asked me this question. It kind of came out of nowhere. And let me be clear to you, I told her the truth. But I know she thinks I'm lying because how I've played the game, which is actually better for me since it's so personal. The truth can be the hardest thing to believe.
Logan: Anyway, we better keep eating as much as we can before it all gets cold.
Logan quickly grabbed a large jelly filled doughnut and bit into it. He chewed on it for a while before spitting it out.
Logan: Ahh! What is that! There's something in the doughnut!
Amidst the jelly sprayed over the bedsheets was a plastic wrapped roll of paper.
Quinn: It's a note!
Logan: Read it! See what it says!
Quinn: You're kidding, right? I'm not touching that.
Logan: Fine.
Logan carefully took the plastic wrapped note, went off to the water off the beach to wash the jelly off, and then brought it back to the bed. He took it out of the plastic, which kept the paper dry in all the mess and began to read out loud.
Logan: "Because Jade played an immunity idol last night, a new one has been hidden back at your camp. It is up to you whether or not you share this information with anyone back at camp. Here is your clue."
"A new idol is planted, where would it be found
Again, the idol is down on the ground
The last idol was found close by to a tree
This time your best shot is close to the sea"
Quinn: This must be the other part of the reward that Dan mentioned earlier.
Logan: So that means that there's another immunity idol hidden back at camp.
Quinn: Logan and I both now have the advantage that we know that there is a new immunity idol hidden at camp. I already have one that Logan still does not know about. But having a second one in my pocket as well would be most excellent.
Hibachi Tribe - Day Twenty-Three
Everyone was still busy working, waiting for Logan and Quinn to come back. Andre and Tori were still gathering coconuts. Lola and Jade had gone out to try and fish. Michael was stuck in the shelter baby-sitting Chase as well as tending the fire. And Cat had been sent off to gather firewood. However, that wasn't exactly what Cat was doing. Cat was frolicking on the beach, just playing around.
Cat: This game can be really stressful. Sometimes I need some alone time for Cat and no one else. And I have fun doing it.
Cat was spinning around in circles on the beach when she suddenly fell down over something. Cat took some time to sit to reorient herself before she looked at what she had just tripped over. A wrapped green package was partially sticking out from the sand. Cat curiously reached over and pulled it out of the sand. After looking at it for a while, she unwrapped it and found an idol that looked identical to the one Jade had played.
Cat: *gasp* It's an idol!
Cat looked around her to make sure no one else was looking, then she quickly stuffed the idol in her pocket and smoothed the sand back over where she found it. She was quietly giggling the entire time, trying to contain her excitement. Then she gathered some leftover sticks lying around the beach and carried them to camp in order to mask what she had been doing. Michael was sitting at the shelter and watched Cat come back with a pile of sticks. He couldn't help but notice Cat's smile.
Michael: What's up Cat?
Cat: What do you mean?
Michael: You seem even happier than usual.
Cat: I'm just happy about how beautiful of a day it is and how happy I am to not have Logan here to bully us.
Michael: Yeah..it is calmer without Logan here. And it is a nice day.
Cat smiled as she laid her pile of sticks next to the shelter and went off into the woods, presumably to find more firewood.
Cat: I can't believe that I found a hidden immunity idol! After seeing how Jade used it, this can save me if I'm ever in danger! This is so exciting!
How many of you saw that one coming?
livvylovesyou: Kind of a loser? He's possibly the biggest dick in the entire cast.
CosmicLoveTonight: Thanks! ^^
HeartofPinksol: Logan and Jade probably have the most enemies out of anyone. They better tread with caution...although it doesn't seem like either plan to anytime soon.
SallyRide19: Sadly, Quinn didn't find the new idol. Good thing she already has one.
JuiceBoxLove: Everyone better watch out. Cat just burned Logan; she's in it to win it.
FFAddicted123: Chase's current attitude would be a good reason to vote him off but it could also be a reason to keep him because he's weaker. Quinn probably hates Logan a bit less after the reward so we can call that progress. There's still a ways to go for Tandre to make Final Two but the possibility should never be discounted.
GemLeighXx: Irony is a beautiful thing. Unless you're the one getting owned by it.
Victorious101: Bringing in a new player when there's already only nine players left is really cheap. It's not fair for someone to enter when seven people had already been eliminated. It is a real shame though...Dana would have been a great character.
