The next morning, most of the group gathered around the kitchen, but Ayla and Frog were absent. Lucca went upstairs to check on the two. When Lucca opened the door, she saw Frog and Ayla lying together on the floor, one on top of the other, apparently asleep. Her eyes nearly bugged out of her head. What was going on here?

Lucca went to wake them up, but saw both of them were unconscious. A good whack over the head with the hilt of her gun changed that, though. Frog and Ayla stirred, then they both managed to stand up.

"What in the world happened?" asked Lucca.

Frog started off on some story about how Ayla went mad with hunger and attacked him. It seems they both slammed into the wall and were knocked out. Ayla said she didn't remember any of it. Lucca, however, could see right through their hilariously fake stories.

"Okay, you two, what really happened?" Lucca asked the two. "I'm not stupid. I can tell what really went on," continued Lucca. "But what I wanna know is... why? How?"

Frog's eyes grew to twice their normal size in shock. "What art thou suggesting, miss?"

"You know what I'm talking about, Frog."

"Ayla don't know what Lucca talk about..."

"Miss, I be not that type of man. Thy imagination hath gotten the best of thy wisdom."

"Come on, Frog..."

"Hold thy tongue, miss. Now, let us dine downstairs."

Everyone had finally arrived downstairs, but before they could begin with breakfast, the TV came back on. Jimmy's huge face appeared, and everyone watched to see what awaited them now.

"Good morning. Today is the third day, so tonight we will be choosing one member of your group to be eliminated. Everyone will vote for one person they want out, and the person with the most votes will be sent to The Void."

"To make things more interesting, I set up a little event for you all to compete in. The winner gets immunity: they cannot be voted off tonight. The competition will happen at noon. Good luck to all of you."

"Okay, that was disturbing," said Lucca. "It's my turn to cook breakfast." Lucca searched throughout the kitchen but found no edible food. "Okay, petals again. How nice."

After everyone was through with eating their healthy, yet tasteless, breakfast, Lucca went back to check on her computer. Entity's Home was finally up. It was the personal homepage of the all-powerful Entity, maintained by someone known as jIMmY62924. It had a huge picture of the Entity as he appeared on the TV screen, plus a little info on how powerful he was. Lucca couldn't use any of this information, but there were several links on the side of the page. One called "Reality Show" caught her eye. She clicked on it, then walked away.

Ozzie, Tata, and Frog made up the hunting party this time. They managed to sneak up behind a sleeping dinosaur twice the size of one of them. It seemed like they had hit the big one. Frog concocted a plan to kill the giant beast.

"Ozzie shall toss me toward the beast, then I shall plunge mine sword into the beast's flesh, then Ozzie shall wield his lightning magic against our foe, whilst Tata attacks the beast as well with..."

"It'll never work," interrupted Ozzie. "I say we stay back here and both attack with magic..."

"'Tis a poor plot. My blade shall overcometh this beast. Magic alone shall do naught but anger it."

"Shut up, Sir Froggy. Who died and made you a tactician?"

Suddenly, before Frog or Ozzie could do anything, Tata suddenly took off at a run toward the sleeping dinosaur, screaming wildly something about a Hero and fearing his wrath. He tossed his shield aside and held his dagger at a attack stance as he charged toward the sleeping giant.

"No, you stupid kid! Stop!"

"Thou fool! Desist!"

Tata paid no heed to Frog and Ozzie. The blade Tata held did indeed pierce the dinosaur's skin, but when it opened its eyes, it looked more annoyed than hurt. It was just about ready to claw Tata to pieces when a huge wave of water fell out of the sky and landed on the dinosaur, distracting it temporarily until a blast of lightning followed and stunned the monster. Not trusting Tata to use a lick of common sense, Frog grabbed Tata and ran away from the stunned dinosaur as quick as he could.

Although Frog, Tata, and Ozzie missed the big one, they were still able to bring home a small mess of frogs and found a whole basket full of some type of fruit they'd never seen before. It was now noon, and it was time for the challenge the Entity spoke of. Everyone stood waiting in front of the TV, which came on right as twelve noon.

"Good day to all of you. Time for the challenge: a test to see who has the strongest will and the strongest stomach. Poyozo, go to it!"

Suddenly, a Poyozo appeared beside them. It had a bag full of something, but there was no clue as to what it was.

"To win this challenge, you must eat one of the things in the bag: a bat."

The Poyozo opened the bag, revealing thirteen live bats.

"So, who wants to try?"

Ayla inched up to the bag, grabbed a bat, then moved it toward her mouth. She tried two or three times, but she just couldn't force herself to put it in her mouth. She finally walked away, muttering "Ayla want cook bat before eat. Mean head ruin good meal for Ayla."

Ozzie shrugged, hovered over, picked up a bat, then bit its head off. Everyone gasped. He swallowed the rest of the bat in one gulp, then hovered off laughing.

"Ozzie wins the first immunity challenge. See you all tonight when the voting occurs."

Despite the bad mood that settled over everyone with Ozzie's victory, lunch turned out okay. Magus cooked the frogs to a nice deep gold with a fire spell, and the fruit was served whole. Although Schala and Frog were kind of ticked off about getting no main course, the fruit was good enough to make up for it.

Time seemed to pass slowly between lunch and voting time. Frog and Robo played chess with an old set Frog found in the closet in his room, Melchior went back to work on whatever he was making, and Tata was put in time-out by Ozzie for what he did on the hunting trip. Magus and Schala started reading a book on how to use dark magic more advanced than Dark Matter. Marle and Lucca practiced their Antipode magic for whenever they might need it.

Finally, it came time to vote somebody out. Jimmy came on the TV again and explained that everyone should write the name of the person they wanted off on a slip of paper and give it to his Poyozo assistant. After the voting was done and all the ballots were in the, the Poyozo read the votes in its high-pitched voice.

"Nu. Tata. Magus. Nu. Ayla. Tata. Tata. Tata. Tata. Lucca. Magus. Alfador. Crono."

Jimmy took over. "Tata, the group has spoken. You have been chosen to be cast into The Void. Say your goodbyes now."

Tata started to cry, then Jimmy cut him off.

"Magus, cast Black Hole on Tata," commanded Jimmy.

"With pleasure," said Magus coldly.

An eerie black portal appeared behind Tata. It sucked him in, then immediately closed back up. Magus smiled, Ozzie and Frog exchanged high-fives before remembering they were mortal enemies, and everyone else didn't even pretend to look sad.

"Now that there is a vacant bed in Magus's room, Nu will now move in with Magus. I'll talk to you all later..."

Everyone, except for Frog and Schala of course, ate the wonderful supper Crono and Lucca prepared: crispy fried frog with a side of whole fruit. There was a little more food to go around now that Tata was gone, so everyone had one more good reason for liking him gone. After the wonderful meal, everyone retired back to their bedrooms for a well-deserved rest.

Jimmy looked over the live pictures of the rooms. Boring. Everyone went right to sleep that night, even the ones like Melchior and Lucca that never seem to sleep. Something would have to be done to ensure a decent show during the night. That Frog vs. Ayla fight was really good, but what are the chances he could stage something like that? He had to think of something...

Nu's plans seemed to have hit a snag, he thought. Two of them wanted to vote him off. And his strategy of trying to vote Crono off seemed to be ineffective, as he was the only one who did. However, this won't affect his plans in the long run, because he needed Tata out of the way anyway sooner or later.
