Notes - I might try and go with these episodes being two-parters rather than being in 3. Depends on how long it takes to get all the prevalent information out. We will see!

Also, sorry for the delay in this chapter. Had a rough week and wasn't able to write as much as I would have liked to. Burnout is a real thing kids. Plus lot's of work and studying were done these two weeks.

Enjoy!

Chapter 04 (Day 2, Part 1) - The Camping Outdoors


"Why?" Mabel muttered as she covered her face with her pillow. For the 4th time this week, she was woken up by the yelling of Gwen and Heather. Something had once again come up, and it led to the two girls screaming at each other. She turned her head to look across the room at Dawn, whose eye bags were even larger than normal. They both glanced at Lindsay, who was still sleeping peacefully, even though Gwen and Heather were shouting right next to her.


Confessional Cam

Mabel - "It should be scientifically impossible for Lindsay to stay sleeping while those two go at it. Ugh. Is it wrong to say I hope we lose so one of them can leave? I'm never going to get any sleep at this rate."

Dawn - "Sleeping is something I don't do often, since I use the time mostly to meditate, but it has gotten insane with those two. I'm starting to regret saving Heather, but something tells me the same thing would probably have happened if Courtney stayed. I need to relax. /She held her head, rubbing it slightly/"


"Are they still going at it?" Samson muttered, face down in his bed with the pillow over his head. There was a groan from the bed under him, as Levi lifted his head up.

"Yeah. Nothing but yelling again." The Viper boys all let out groans, except for Shawn, who was already dressed and wide awake.

"At least it's not in the middle of the night guys!" He tried to reason, but dodged the pillow that was thrown at him by Daniel.

"Dude, it's 7 am. I haven't gotten up at 7 am in so long. It's summer. There is no reason to be up this early." Shawn scoffed at Daniel's words, crossing his arms.

"Uh, yeah! You always want to be up this early, because you need to be ready and alert if a zombie tries to attack you in your sleep." Owen moaned, rolling in his bed.

"Why is it always zombies? Why can't it be like breakfast? Oh, man, now I'm hungry." Shawn rolled his eyes, looking towards Owen.

"Because zombies can strike at any time! You must always be prepared for zombies!" The other boys all groaned as Shawn went on about zombies.


While the Vipers were struggling with their morning, the Crocodiles were having a much better time. At the current time, Ezekiel was the only guy up, and was slowly getting dressed.

He didn't want to wake anyone up, so he made sure to be quiet as he got ready. It was common on the prairie to be up by the sunrise, so 7 am was no big deal for him. Things were very tame in the room and he didn't want to disturb them, so he left the cabin, looking for the Mess Hall.

At the same time, the girls cabin opened, Bridgette walking out and seeing Ezekiel.

"Zeke? What are you doing up this early?" He gave her a wave, walking towards the girl.

"Oh hey Bridgette. I'm used to being up early, eh. We usually wake up earlier to get tasks done." She nodded, gesturing towards the Mess Hall.

"Fair enough. You going to join me for some breakfast?" He felt a small blush creep on his face, but he nodded, holding his composure for the most part.

"Definitely." Together, the two started their walk towards the Mess Hall, making casual conversation. Ezekiel was incredibly nervous, but as they talked, he started to feel more comfortable talking to the surfer.


Confessional Cam

Ezekiel - "Bridgette is such a nice person, eh. Every time I talk to her, I learn more and think she's so cool. Of course, she likes sports and all that, but I'm not that good at sports, eh."

Bridgette - "I figured I would talk to Zeke more, especially after he apologized to everyone on the team. It took guts, so I'm more than willing to hang out with him more."


The two were expecting the Mess Hall to be empty, but instead, they were greeted by Jennette, who was eating food with a scowl on her face.

"Oh wow, Chris makes you eat that stuff also?" Bridgette remarked, holding a hand to her mouth, but Jennette simply shrugged.

"It was either eat the crap you guys eat and get paid, or eat good food and no paycheck. Besides, it tastes vaguely like meat, so I'm fine with it." She took another bite, which made Ezekiel gag slightly.

As the three conversed, Charlie walked in, looking fairly refreshed. Luckily for her, the Crocodiles side didn't have two girls arguing and fighting every day.

"Mornin' chaps!" Ezekiel and Bridgette waved to the newcomer, while Jennette nodded her head slightly. She glanced at the food the blonde girl was eating, and stuck her tongue out. "God, that looks mighty nasty." She muttered, which Jennette answered with only a shrug.

"Wait. You have a British accent?" Ezekiel asked, looking towards Charlie, who laughed slightly.

"What, did you not notice because I was a girl? Not paying attention to me talking, huh?" Ezekiel yelped, taking hold of his toque. Bridgette raised an eyebrow though.

"I mean, if I'm honest, I also didn't remember you being British." She laughed again, shrugging as she went towards the cafeteria line.

"It's probably because I didn't have many lines in the first episode and the author was still thinking about whether or not to make me British and finally decided on an outcome." The three others in the Mess Hall all shared a look, unsure what to say. Luckily, the tension was broken as Mabel and Owen walked in, both of them looking exhausted.

"Yikes," Bridgette started, looking at them with a look of worry on her face. "You both look like you've seen better days." Mabel simply muttered, walking towards the line, while Owen groaned.

"Heather and Gwen have been fighting nonstop and no one is getting any sleep at our cabin." Owen was so out of it, he sat down, resting his head instead of getting food.

"Yeah," Mabel nodded, walking aimlessly forward. "It's been nothing but hell there." As she spoke, she walked into Charlie, knocking the detective to the floor. "Oh Newton! I'm sorry, I wasn't paying any attention!" Luckily, Charlie hadn't gotten food yet, so she just fell to the floor, and her food was still on the counter.

"Ow…" She rubbed her head before looking up, seeing an outstretched hand. She glanced up to see Mabel's face, a smile on it as she offered her help. A faint blush formed on her face, but she took the girl's hand.

"T-thank you." Charlie muttered out, looking away from Mabel. All she did was smile and shake her head.

"No, I should be apologizing! No sleep isn't an excuse to be knocking people on their bums!" The two talked, while Ezekiel watched with a raised eyebrow. No one else really paid them any attention, as both Chef and Jennette didn't care enough, Owen was too tired to notice, and Bridgette had other things on her mind at the moment.

"So, any idea what the next challenge is?" She asked as she sat down. It was mostly directed to Ezekiel, but Jennette snorted, taking another bite of her… Was it soup? Meatloaf? Jello? No one was sure.

"Sorry, but can't give you any hints about it. All I can say is the challenge should be today. So expect that." Bridgette simply shrugged, giving the blond intern a small smile. That much information was more than she was expecting to get out of her. Charlie sat next to Bridgette, with Mabel sitting next to her, making her blush a little more.

"Aren't we supposed to be sitting with our teams, eh? You want to sit with us." Mabel was about to defend her choice, but Jennette coughed, getting her attention. With a silent nod, Mabel frowned, grabbing her tray.

"Suppose you're right." She muttered, walking towards the other table, which was only housing a sleeping Owen. Charlie shot a dirty look towards Ezekiel, who didn't seem to catch the glare.


Confessional Cam

Charlie - "What was that about, Ezekiel? I was having a nice conversation with her! Ugh, the little brat annoyed me there. No matter. I can just have a conversation with Mabel later, right?"

Mabel - "At first, I got a little annoyed since Charlie seemed nice. I don't suffer from my usual anxiety talking to her. But after seeing Jennette's face, I realized that Ezekiel was helping me out. I botched the first challenge and only barely redeemed myself. With Courtney gone, I'm already looking weak, and if I was at the table with the other team? Then boom, I'm already out. Shame though. /She smiles slightly/ I'll try and talk to Charlie again when I can. She's pretty cute.."


As the few campers spoke, the Mess Hall door was slammed open, silencing them all. From the door, a grumpy looking Duncan walked in, who was scowling at everyone.

Ever since Courtney's elimination, Duncan's attitude tanked, and he was wanting nothing to do with anyone, especially not the dumb Vipers that voted off his princess. Mostly everyone was not wanting to deal with him, but Charlie was not one of them.

"It seems the criminal himself is here. Hide your valuables." Duncan let out a growl, but simply walked past the table to get some food. From her side, Bridgette coughed slightly.

"Hey, uh Charlie? Is it really wise to annoy him right now? I mean, he's still super mad about Courtney…" Charlie snorted, taking a bite of her own food and leaving her glare on the delinquent.

"As if. Criminals like him only care about themselves." Bridgette only frowned at the girl's response, deciding not to comment on that line of thinking. Luckily for Charlie, Duncan was tired and didn't care enough today to fight with her, simply sitting at the tables opposite edge, eating his food in silence.

The door to the Mess Hall opened, Samson walking in looking miserable, while Shawn continued to talk about zombie protocols to him.

"Man, you know I don't care about this stuff right?" He asked, muttering a 'Baka' under his breath. Shawn scoffed, nodding his head.

"Uh yeah, I can tell! And that's why I'm warning you! So you can be prepared for when the inevitable happens! You weren't listening, so I will start from the top." He started to talk more about his theories, making Samson groan. Everyone talked amongst themselves, but Duncan watched the two newcomers with a glare in his eye, something that Samson himself noticed.

"Is there a problem?" He asked loudly, making sure Duncan could hear him from across the room. Duncan scoffed, throwing his spoon down to the plate in front of him, his eyes full of anger.

"Is there a problem? You bet your ass there is a problem." He stood up, walking towards the two. "I bet you two nerds voted for Princess, didn't you?" He spat it out, making Shawn whimper and try to shimmy away, but Samson just felt his face harden, glaring down at the shorter boy.

"And maybe I did. What's that to you?" He spoke, looking at Duncan, who let out a breath he wasn't even aware he was holding. Despite Samson's good nature, he was still a muscular tall man, and he was incredibly intimidating, but Duncan seemed almost unfazed.

"You act tough and you look big, but I'm guessing you're just like DJ. A cuddly little teddy bear, that's scared of everyone." Samson chuckled slightly, turning his head and cracking his knuckles loudly.

"You wanna see just how much 'like DJ' I am?" The air dropped in the room as the two glared at each other. Duncan, to his credit, didn't back down from Samson, and he only looked away when a hand was placed on his shoulder. Turning his head, he saw the taller Geoff next to him, a smile on his face.

"Hey man, let's just chill out a bit. We don't want to be starting fights so early in the morning, right brah?" While his words weren't much, Duncan felt himself calm down slightly; Just being in the presence of Geoff had that effect on people. He turned back to Samson, rolling his eyes before walking away.

"Yeah, whatever." Samson rolled his eyes back, turning to get his food and heading towards the Vipers table.


Confessional Cam

Samson - "Not sure what crawled up his eyes, but he needs to be careful. I don't like fighting, but if someone tries to step up, well these hands are rated E for everyone. /He laughs slightly/ Kami, I haven't fought anyone in a long time!"

Duncan - "As if I'm scared of that stupid nerd. Yeah, he's tall and muscular, but he's still a nerd! I'll get my revenge on that entire team! They voted out Courtney on the first day! Still pisses me off!"


After the issue was resolved, more campers started to pile into the Mess Hall; Cody and Kara walked in, a red blush on her face, while Cody also had a red shade on his face, but his was from embarrassment.

"I swear, I'm really good at yo-yoing! That never happens!" He was heard to be squeaking out as he passed the other campers, while Kara simply giggled and shook her head.

"Oh I tooootally believe you!" She laughed, making his blush increase in size. Behind them, Gwen and Heather entered, both of them glaring daggers at the other. Behind them, Lindsay was oblivious to the hatred that spilled out of the two and simply sat at her table next to Owen.

Soren and Vivian entered next, Soren looking very indifferent, while Vivian had a frown on her face and her arms were crossed.

"Best 3 out of 5?" Soren groaned, giving her a look.

"We are not doing more thumb wars because you lost. If you want to hold my hand that badly, just say so." She blushed, a scowl on her face.

"As if I'd want to hold your stupid hand! I just want to stomp you in thumb wars! Now let's go! Unless you're scared?" She mockingly asked, but Soren rolled his eyes and went to get breakfast, muttering about how he had beaten her twice already.

After them, Daniel and Levi walked in, the two discussing a video game that was rumored to come out later this year around Halloween.

"Believe me man. I love horror and this game looks like a great game." Daniel said with a smile, while Levi nodded, a huge smile on his face as well.

"Oh I get it. My girlfriend has been talking nonstop about it. She loves space and horror." There was a scoff from the tables, and Daniel and Levi looked over from the kitchen line to see Heather rolling her eyes.

"You have a girlfriend? Is she another huge video game nerd like yourself? She also fails challenge's like you?" Levi growled, and was about to say something when Gwen beat him to it.

"Yeah, some people are likable. It's weird, right? Ever think about why you're single?" Heather shot a dirty look at the goth girl and they both started to yell at each other, making everyone in the room groan. Levi went back to line, his annoyance clear on his face, but he was pulled from his thoughts thanks to a nudge from Daniel.

"Hey, don't let her get to you. She's a massive bitch, you know this." Levi nodded, but there was still an uneasy look on his face.

"Yeah, she's a train wreck. And you have a massive crush on her. How does that even work?" Daniel laughed slightly as they rounded the corner towards the table, sitting away from the two catty girls, who now had people near them, trying to get them to shut up (Izzy entered the room when no one was looking, telling them both she would sacrifice them if they didn't stop talking).

"Yeah, it's weird if I'm honest. She's cute. And I kinda have this thing for bitchy girls. I don't know. They can't be tamed. That's pretty hot if you ask me." Levi scoffed, shaking his head.

"No way, not for me. My Samantha is the nicest girl on the planet. You should go for someone that's nice to you! Like… I don't know, Dawn?" As he said it, Daniel cocked an eyebrow at him. "I mean, you guys are friends and you have similar interests right?"

"I'm not sure about that. Yeah, Dawn's my friend and she's cool. I like that she knows crystals and I know everyone thinks the whole mystic thing is weird, but it's kind of cool. I mean, I do believe in that supernatural stuff." He paused, looking off towards the door, which just so happened to open and Dawn walked in, a small smile on her face. He turned back to Levi, a smile on his face as well. "Besides. Dawn and I are friends. We don't like each other like that. Now tell me about this Samantha girl!"


Confessional Cam

Daniel - "I mean, if I'm honest, yeah Dawn is super cute and cool. But like I said, we are friends and you don't just randomly hit on your friends. If she wanted to, Dawn could get someone super cool and I wish her the best on that! For now, I'm just trying to focus on the game and how much I want Heather to change. /He pauses, a frown slowly forming on his face./ Well crap… Now I'm thinking about Dawn a bit. /Slaps his face/ Snap out of it!"

Levi - "Honestly, Dawn was the first girl I could think of. I just can't understand why anyone would actually have a crush on someone as wicked as Heather! I have heard of people being attracted to mean people, like with Duncan and Courtney. Just someone as evil as Heather? That's a hard pass from me!"

Heather - "I don't know why, but I feel very angry for some reason."

Duncan - "I just got a huge urge to throttle a nerd… Weird."

Dawn - "I was out meditating and I felt my aura flare out. Someone must be having a conversation about me. Oh, I hope it was a good one! Wonder who it was though. /She ponders, a hand on her chin before snapping with a smile./ It was probably that Maverick guy. I did see him on my way to the Mess Hall!"

Maverick - "/He has a frown on his face, looking away from the camera/ I found that blonde girl sitting on a rock as I was leaving the cabin and she told me that it was okay that my dad left when I was young and I didn't need him influencing me! I'm pretty chill, but it was weird that she knew that! Just makes me kind of uncomfortable around her. But she's right! I don't need him! I heard he didn't like sports anyway!"


Maverick filed in after Dawn, a little frazzled look on his face, but no one gave it much mind. He sat down at the Crocodile table, near Duncan and Geoff, while Dawn sat next to Daniel, who was busy hearing about Samantha, Levi's girlfriend.

"Well, don't you all look like happy little campers?" Chris McLean walked into the Mess Hall, his smile glistening and blinding people near him. Next to him, Jennette was standing there with a fairly large stick. "That's good, seeing as how today's challenge will be reminiscent of classic camping activities!" Vivian snorted at the host.

"Oh yeah? What are we going to roast some smores? Tell scary ghost stories by the fire? Maybe go canoeing?" Nearby, Owen sighed happily.

"Hmmm… Smores." Chris laughed, shaking his head towards them.

"No nothing like that! Today, you're all going to be taking a hike!" There were several groans from the campers, mostly from the nerdier ones, and some nods of approval, mostly from people that have hiked before, or have the physical skills to hike.

"Now, you guys are going to be separated into teams of 2, and you're going to have to take a two day hike with your partner! You'll be given a map, water, food and some supplies, but you're mostly going to be finding stuff out there on the hike! First full team to return to the Mess Hall wins! Any questions?" Predictably, several hands shot up.

"Are we able to choose our own partners?" Maverick asked, sneakily looking towards Bridgette.

"No, that would make it too easy. We have pre-selected your teams, so I already know who is going to be with who!" Chris responded, looking over towards Mabel.

"Why is this a two day hike? I'm assuming we have to hit a certain spot, but what's stopping us from hiking back home instantly?" Chris nodded, looking over at the nerdy girl.

"Good question. The spot everyone is hitting is different, but they are all equal distance away from the Mess Hall. It's two-fold. One, some people can't make a hike that long, going to and from in one go, so we need to make it fair for everyone. And two, once you hit the spot marked on your map, you need to set up camp and survive the night. Once it hits 6 am the next morning, you are free to leave your camp and start heading back to camp." Mabel nodded, satisfied at the host's response. He turned to Duncan, a smile on his face.

"Is there anything stopping us from stealing supplies from others? Especially if we are limited." Chris let out a laugh at his question, while Charlie rolled her eyes and shot a glare at him.

"No, no rules against that. But just be careful. That might make you a target or make you lose your supplies. So take it with a grain of salt, okay?" At that, everyone seemed satisfied, so Chris whipped out a paper. "Now, let's get down to the teams. Viper's you guys are up first! First team is going to be everyone's favorite duo! Gwen and Heather!" Both girls jumped up, screaming towards the host, who simply sat there and smiled.

"How dare you! This is so stupid Chris! You're really going to put me with the demon?" Gwen shouted, pointing towards Heather, who was also shouting in rage.

"I have to team up with the insane Goth Girl? How dense can you be to do this McLean?"

As they continued to shout at him, he turned to the intern at his side, who groaned before stepping forward. She slammed her large stick into the ground before pointing it right towards both girls, a scowl on her face.

"Both y'all shut up or you're going to get instantly eliminated from the challenge. Because I will be knocking you out." Heather scoffed at the blonde girl's threat, smirking at her.

"Oh yeah? You're really going to hit us and knock us out? Puh-lease!" She taunted, but Jennette had a smirk on her face, her grip tightening on the stick.

"You know who the host is right? And I take great joy in hurting, so please oh please, give me an excuse to lay you both out." Her grin was almost as large as Chris' and Gwen gulped, hitting Heather lightly on the shoulder.

"She, uh, doesn't look like she's kidding…" Heather nodded, fear clearly etched on her face, making Chris laugh.

"Glad that's out of the way! Thank you Jenette!" The blond rolled her eyes before walking back to his side, her stick no longer at the girl's throats. "Anyway, team 2 for the Vipers will be Samson and Shawn!" The two had opposite reactions, with Samson slapping his face and groaning, while Shawn cheered.

"You see man, it's all a plan! Now I can teach you more about how to survive! Isn't that great?" Samson scowled, not looking forward to the challenge.

"Yeah… So great." Chris chuckled at the two reactions before turning back to his paper, ready to rattle off the next team.

"Alright, team 3 is going to be Daniel and Dawn!" Dawn let out a smile, turning to Daniel and reaching her arm up for a high five. He responded, but as she turned, his smile turned into a bit of a frown, and he glanced towards Levi. He was also looking at Daniel, almost missing his own name.

"Team 4 is going to be Lindsay and Levi!" Lindsay cheered slightly, hugging the smaller nerd, who blushed at the tight hold.

"Yay, we so totally got this Liam!" His blush immediately vanished, a scowl forming on his face. This was going to be a very long challenge for him.

"And the final team is going to be Mabel and Owen!" The large man cheered, a massive grin on his face, while Mabel frowned, her hand on her chin in thought. After only a few seconds, she let out a small gasp, shaking her head.

"Wow, I see what you did there Chris. Pretty lazy." The host simply ignored her, turning to the other team, making her huff slightly.


Confessional Cam

Heather - "Of course I'm being teamed up with the Goth Girl. Chris just has to push my buttons, doesn't he?"

Gwen - /All she does is growl, glaring at the camera./

Levi - "Don't get me wrong, it's cool I'm on a team with Lindsay. But I've never been the type that's all about the bubbly big boobed girl. Besides, I have Sam at home. I miss you honey! I'll win and pwn for you! /He pauses, then groans/ Okay, even I admit, that was pretty cringy."

Mabel - "Levi and Lindsay? Daniel and Dawn? Samson and Shawn? C'mon Chris, that's just lazy! And then with the other teams. Even G and H are close, same with O and M! Ugh!"

Samson - "Shawn is cool, but man can that man jabber. It just gets so annoying sometimes. Like, not everything is a zombie attack man!"


"Moving on to the Crocodiles. First team is going to be Bridgette and Ezekiel!" Bridgette nodded, a smile on her face, while Ezekiel yelped, hiding in his toque a bit.

"Oh Zeke, we got this right?" She asked him, making him nod slowly. Chris laughed, however, wagging a finger at them.

"I sure hope so. Bridgette, I hope you got over your fear of being alone in the woods! My man Ezekiel here hates the outdoors!" Bridgette suddenly gulped, looking back to Ezekiel, who was hiding under his toque, shivering slightly.

"Oh no," was her only response as Chris laughed, looking back at his paper.

"Moving on! Team 2 will be Maverick and Geoff!" The two dudes looked at one another, smiles on their faces.

"I'm chill with that. He seems rad." Geoff noted, tipping his hat slightly to the Athlete. Maverick returned the favor, nodding to the man.

"Hell yeah. Geoff seems chill. I'm down to camp with him for the night." The two shared a fist bump, while Chris frowned.

"No drama? Shame. Anywho, the next team is going to be…" He stopped, his frown turning into a massive grin. "Nevermind, there is the drama I wanted! Next team is Duncan and Charlie!" The two mentioned teens immediately jumped up, shouting in rage.

"You're putting me with the wannabe cop? Really McLean?"

"I have to spend the night with the dirty felon?" As they shouted, Chris glanced over at Jennette again, who rolled her eyes. This time, without warning, she raised the stick and swung it forward, smacking Duncan in the jaw. It would have hit Charlie as well, but thanks to it slowing down from hitting Duncan, she was able to duck in time to dodge it.

"I warned everyone once. That's what you get!" Jennette hissed out, taking her spot back next to Chris, ignoring the glares from everyone. Duncan groaned, taking someone's outstretched hand, not realizing it was Charlie's.

"We get it, mate. We will play nice. But a bit mean, innit?" She was talking to Jennette, but the girl simply ignored her, looking at her nails instead. Chris frowned, cocking his head sideways.

"Wait, you're British?" Charlie answered by rolling her eyes, taking a seat next to Duncan, who was still slightly groggy from the hit. "Anyway," Chris stated, shaking his head and going back down the list. "Team 4 is Kara and Cody!" The two blushed, looking at each other with a smile.

"I can live with that." Kara remarked, giggling slightly, as Cody shot a silent prayer, thanking God for everything.

"And finally, team 5 will have three people since the teams aren't even. Izzy, Soren and Vivian!" Vivian let out a massive groan, slapping her head, while Izzy cheered and Soren just smiled.

"Oh yeah! Izzy is going to rock this! She is going to camp so hard!" Vivian gave the girl a look, glaring at her.

"What. The hell. Does that even mean?" Izzy simply nodded in response, making Vivian groan. "I hate this challenge already."

"Now, before we take off, we are going to have bags for you here, each person takes one bag. Hopefully you have good supplies! You might. You might not!" He chuckled slightly as a tarp was removed, showing off 21 dark green backpacks. Cody raised an eyebrow, pointing towards the wall.

"How did none of us see that tarp?" No one seemed to answer him though, as everyone rushed forward, trying to get the bags that looked the most full.

"Also, I feel like I should mention this! The first full team to arrive wins the challenge, but the first two teams to arrive get special treatment. We won't know until the challenge is done, but the first two teams to arrive from the losers will get immunity! The first two from the winners side will be getting their own personal chef and food for a full week!"

There was a cheer from the group. A personal chef for an entire week? That was a huge advantage for anyone. With another clap to get their attention, Chris smiled.

"Get acquainted! The challenge starts in an hour!"


Heather and Gwen sat in front of each other, not saying a word, simply glaring at each other. What was there to talk about? The two of them were simply fire and oil. No matter what would happen, those two would never get along.

Samson sat, ignoring Shawn, who was talking about zombie strike points from the woods, and how he and Samson needed to be careful. He was really dreading spending the night in the woods with Shawn.

Daniel and Dawn were looking at a map, pointing out their route. Dawn had mentioned about hanging out in several of the areas, talking about them being good meditation spots where she could really feel in tune with nature. As she pointed more spots on the map, Daniel felt himself looking at her with a smile. Noticing, he quickly looked back to the map, a blush on his face.

Levi was trying to plot a course on the map, but Lindsay was getting confused, pointing towards other lines on the map, not realizing they were the creases on the folded map. Levi was slowly losing his mind.

Mabel was slowly explaining to Owen the route they needed to go, explaining scientifically how long they would take to get to certain points. Owen was trying his best to pay attention, but he was not understanding at all. He also couldn't help but fart, which was starting to annoy everyone in the room.

Bridgette was looking at the map, trying to make sense of the route they needed to take. Ezekiel was trying to focus, but with Bridgette so close, he felt his face flush, and was losing his battle against his focus.

Geoff and Maverick ended up talking about parties instead of plotting their course. The two laughed and started to compare several party stories, glad to be with a chill teammate.

Duncan recovered from his injury, but was now glaring at Charlie instead of looking at the map. She held the map in her hands, also not looking at it and instead opting to glare at Duncan. Neither were happy about the situation they were in, but they couldn't get out of it, lest they be beaten with Jennette's stick.

Cody was looking at the map, complaining slightly about the route they had to take, saying it was a large distance away. Kara simply told him it should be fine, and that her biggest priority was not hurting herself the way there. She also begged there to be a first aid kit in her bag, but Chris informed her they weren't allowed to look in the bags until they departed.

Vivian, like the other angry people, simply sat glaring at Soren. Soren was looking at the map, trying to memorize the path, which was hard to do, especially with Izzy going over his shoulder, making obscene comments and just annoying Soren. He felt a headache coming, having to work with these two.


After an hour had passed, all the teams were outside, ready to start their 2 day hike. Chris stood in front of them, a horn in his hand.

"Alright! Ready! Set! Go!"


Smaller chapter. Longer wait and shorter chapter. I'm sorry about that guys.

Either way, hope you enjoyed, I'll try and post another chapter soon!
