(Here is round 2 of the Weakest Link. Thanks to just a fanfic fan, Niblick, no you know, and Sailor Evanescence for reviewing my 1st chapter. This next one should be pretty good.)

(The show comes back.)

Anne: Welcome back, to "The Weakest Link." Round 2, team. So far, you've banked $53,500 when you could've had $125,000. There are seven of you left. Another ten seconds coming off the clock. We'll start with the strongest link from the last round. That's Mathew. Let's play "The Weakest Link!" Start the clock. Mathew, what is the longest running game show in America?

"The Price is Right."

Anne: Correct. David--

David: Bank!

Anne: What name is given to a number or word spelled the same way forward and backwards?

Brittney: Could you repeat that please?

Anne: In Looney Tunes cartoons, the Road Runner always escaped from which enemy?

Brittney: Wile E. Coyote.

Anne: Correct. Mathew--

Bank!

Anne: What battery is known to be--

(music cue plays)

Anne: Time is up. I cannot complete the question. In that round, you dropped a little bit. You banked $51,000 out of a possible $125,000. Not bad, though. That money will go through to the next round, but one of you will not. Who has been dozing off at school at least 10 times a day?

(Audience laughs)

Anne: Who has cluelessly left their school things at home? It's time to vote off, the weakest link.

Announcer: Once again, Mathew is the strongest link in this round. He answered all of his questions correctly. Statistically, David is the weakest link. He answered all of his questions wrong, but banked the most money for the team. Whose game is over now?

Anne: Okay team, voting over it's time to reveal who you think is the weakest link.

David. (my handwriting of David's name appears on the little screen below my name.)

Sam: Arnold. (her handwriting of Arnold's name appears on the little screen below her name.)

Clover: Sam. (her handwriting of Sam's name appears on the little screen below her name.)

Alex: Clover (her handwriting of Clover's name appears on the little screen below her name.)

Arnold: Brittney (his handwriting of Brittney's name appears on the little screen below his name.)

David: Alex (his handwriting of Alex's name appears on the little screen below his name.)

Brittney: David (her handwriting of David's name appears on the little screen below her name.)

Anne: Brittney.

Brittney: Yes, Anne.

Anne: Why David?

Brittney: Because he didn't answer a single question when it was his turn because I kept an eye on him.

Anne: Okay. Mathew.

Yes.

Anne: Why David?

It was that question with palindrome as the answer. Look-alike was such a dumb answer. I never knew how dumb someone could answer like that on national TV.

Anne: Statistically, David was the worst player, and it's votes that count. David, with 2 votes, you ARE the weakest link! Good-bye.

(David takes the walk of shame and leaves the studio.)

David: (after he was voted off.) Knowing how right Mathew was, I did act stupid in that round, but I thought I might last a little longer. But it's okay, I'm a little embarrassed though.

Anne: 6 players remain, but only 1 will win. Find out who is next to go when we return to, "The Weakest Link."

(That's round 2. Leave about 6 reviews or so and I'll continue. If I have less than 6, then I won't continue until I have reached it or surpassed it. Round 3 is the next chapter. Leave some guesses on who will be voted off next in your reviews. For now, good-bye.)
