5:30 PM

Phoenix called TG, Apollo, Trucy, into his room.

"What's this about Mr. Wright?" Apollo asked

"Apollo, Trucy, I need you guys to sit on this bed. TG and I will sit on this one."

"Why?" Trucy questioned him

"Just do it." Phoenix ordered

After the four of them sat down, Phoenix then spoke up again.

"There's a reason why I picked TG to be my loved one. I wanted her to be here, because we have something very important to share with you."

TG then took out a blue cloak, and black mouth mask from her purse.

"Do this clothing look familiar to you?" she asked Apollo and Trucy

"Yeah." Apollo recalled "It's the same clothes that Lamiroir- No way!"

"What is it Polly?" Trucy asked

"She's Lamiror!"

"That can't be right! She's blind!"

"Actually Trucy, I went through with the eye correction surgery."

"And once she was able to see again, her memories all came flooding back." Phoenix added

"Including my real name."

"That's awesome!" Trucy giggled

"So, who are you then?" Apollo wondered "Who were that before you were Lamiroir?"

"I was actually getting to that. TG are the initials for my real name..…Thalassa Gramarye."

"No." Trucy cried "You're-"

"Surprise Trucy." Phoenix smiled "I found you a Mommy."

"Mommy." Trucy mumbled

Trucy suddenly went over to her mother's arms, and wept on her shoulder. Thalassa starting crying too.

"I'm sorry. I shouldn't have left you."

"It's OK Mommy. I forgive you. You lost your memory. It's not your fault."

After a minute, Thalassa decided to let go of Trucy.

"I have something else to tell you." she admitted "Apollo. I need you to roll up my sleeves."

"OK?" he said nervously

He didn't find anything after rolling up the first sleeve, but noticed a golden bracelet after rolling up the second one.

"Is that my bracelet?" he asked "What are you doing with my bracelet on your arm?"

"Here. Take it off." Thalassa instructed

"Wait. My bracelet has my name engraved in it. It also has pictures of me, Nahyuta, and Clay on our trip across Asia. I guess this isn't my bracelet then. Sorry Thalassa."

"That's alright. In fact. I'll make your bracelet appear right now."

"No you can't. There's no way you can-"

Thalassa snapped her fingers, and Apollo awed as he saw his bracelet appear out of thin air.

"WOAH! THAT WAS REALLY GOOD!" he applauded

"I also have another trick up my sleeve. I can instantly make you be a part of a family."

"Huh?"

"For the first part of this trick, I need you to put your bracelet on."

"No! I'm not allowed to have it on while I'm on the show. If I wear it, I'll easily be able to figure out who's the Mole, because for some reason my bracelet tightens whenever someone lies. That's cheating."

"I asked Nick, and he said it was OK just this once."

"Alright, fine." he groaned as he put his bracelet on

"Now for the final part of my trick, I just have to say a few words. Before I had Trucy, I had a son. My first husband was named Jove Justice."

"Jove Justice. That means, you're-"

"Yes Apollo. I'm your mother too. You and Trucy are half siblings."

Apollo breathed heavy for a minute, while Talassa took his bracelet off.

"Polly?" Trucy asked "Are you OK?"

"How long?"

"How long what?" Talassa asked

"How long have you two known about this? About Trucy and I?"

"We've known for a year." Talassa answered "I had my surgery a few days before Athena joined your agency. I told Phoenix the day after my memory came back."

"Why a year? Why did you guys wait so long to tell us?"

"We tried telling you sooner. You went to handle trials in Asia for half a year with Clay and Nahyuta as your assistants. After you returned home, Trucy got her show headlined in Vegas. We couldn't get the two of you together until now." Phoenix explained

"He's right Polly." Trucy agreed "This past year, I've hardly got to see you. Plus, when we were together, Mommy probably couldn't make it."

"I guess you're right." Apollo sighed "I'm sorry Mom."

"You're forgiven."

"Wait. I have an idea." Trucy happily thought "When I'm not performing in Vegas, I live with Daddy, but I don't want to leave him for Mommy. I also don't want to go back and forth between parents. So, maybe Mommy can move into the agency. Also Polly can move in with us too. After all Polly, you spend more time at the agency then you do at your own apartment."

"It's true Mom." Apollo defended

"Also that would technically make you my son." Phoenix snickered "I like that idea, Trucy."

"Me too." Talassa added "It'll give me a chance to spend time with both of my kids."

"As long as I don't have to perform magic on stage, I'm in." Apollo accepted

I get a Mommy, and a half brother in a matter of a few minutes. I must be dreaming right now. - Trucy

Finally, after twenty four years, I feel like a part of me is complete. I finally have a real biological family. - Apollo

6:00 PM

*KNOCK KNOCK*

"Come in!" Miciah called

"Hey Miciah. Can you come with me for a minute?" Sothe asked

"Sure. What's going on?"

"Come with me. I have a surprise for you."

Miciah got up from the bed, and Sothe led her out of the room. A few seconds later, they both went into the elevator. As the couple went down the elevator, Sothe put a blindfold on her.

"What are you doing?" she wondered

"Just trust me."

As the elevator doors opened, Sothe lead Miciah to the hotel lobby. He took off her blindfold, and noticed her fellow players off to the side with their loved ones. Miciah then looked down, and saw they were standing in the middle of rose petals in the shape of a heart.

"What's happening?" she questioned him

"I remember the first time I met you. It was my first day in Virginia, and I was already sent to school. I was so scared of being the new kid, but luckily when I arrived in homeroom, you made me feel so welcome. You were one of the few in our fifth grade class that made me feel like I belonged. Ever since that day, we've been the best of friends. We've had our good times, and bad times. We've had our ups, and downs. And no matter what, I want to be with you no matter what life throws at us. So-"

Miciah put her hand over her mouth, and started tearing up when Sothe went down on one knee.

"Miciah Angela Silverstin, will you marry me?"

"Yes!" she cried happily

Sothe put the B Rank Ring on her left ring finger, and the players applauded as the couple kissed.

OH MY GOD! I JUST GOT ENGAGED! I know Sothe is the one for me. I can't imagine my life without him. I can't wait to be Ms. Sothe Rodgers. - Miciah

DAY 17

SKYDIVE WEST COAST 8:00 AM

Challenge #16 - Jumping For Joy

"Welcome to your next challenge: Jumping for Joy." It's worth $45,000, and another opportunity to spend time with your loved one. Here's how this challenge works. Before you arrived, we asked your loved ones a simple question. Would you skydive for $5,000? All you need to do is match what your loved ones said. However, just saying yes or no isn't enough. You all will come in the plane, and if you say yes, you'll take the plunge. After everyone that wants to jump has jumped, we'll see what your loved ones said earlier. If you guys match you'll add $5,000 to the pot. Along with that comes some more quality time together. Does everyone understand?"

"YES!"

"OK. Let's head into the plane."

I'll have no problem jumping. I practically live for adventure. - Lucina

As a marine, I've had to jump out of planes before. I'm absolutely jumping. - Ike

I deal with criminal gangs shooting at me on a daily basis. I'm not scared of jumping out of a plane. - Fredrick

"So, how wants to go first?"

Lucina quickly jumped out. She was soon followed by Ike, and then Fredrick. Apollo, then Phoenix went. They were followed by Trucy and Miles. Simon was the last to jump, which left Miciah still on the plane.

"Are you going Miciah?"

"I can't do it, Nick. I'm really afraid of heights." she wailed "Please don't make me do this."

"Is that your final answer?"

"I'm afraid so. I want to get down as soon as possible."

"OK then. Sir, can you please take us down?"

Miciah not jumping is really suspicious. - Apollo

I'm not sure why she couldn't jump. She jumped off the Chesapeake Bay bridge just fine on the first day. - Miles

First, she picked me to be her eyes. Second, she lied about Sothe's hair color. Third, she didn't even attempt to jump. - Phoenix

Miciah hasn't sabotaged this much before. I'm going to keep an eye out for her. - Simon

"It seems you all skydived, except for Miciah. Let's see what your loved ones said. Remember, if you guys match, you'll be able to spend the day together again."

"Do you think Apollo will skydive?"

Yeah. I think Pollo will do it.

"Do you think Fredrick will skydive?"

He's been in more dangerous situations. I have no doubt in my mind that he'll skydive.

"Do you think Ike will skydive?"

He's done it before, so I think he'll do it again.

"Do you think Lucina will skydive?"

Lucy has always been an adrenaline junkie. Of course she'll skydive in a heartbeat.

"Do you think Miciah will skydive?"

I think she'll skydive. I have faith in her.

"Do you think Miles will skydive?"

He would be a foolish fool if he foolishly refused to do a foolish jump.

"Do you think Phoenix will skydive?"

I think he'll do it. I've never seen him refuse a challenge before.

"Do you think Simon will skydive?"

I know he'll do it. If he didn't it, I'd be happy to push him off.

"Do you think Trucy will skydive?"

Yes. I think Trucy will skydive.

"Congratulations to the eight of you. You get to spend the day with your loved ones, until after the execution ceremony tonight. You've also added $40,000 to the group pot. So, the new total is $328,000."

I thought Sothe would think about my fear of heights before he gave his answer. I know I told him about it before. - Miciah

I feel bad for Miciah not being able to see her fiance. Sothe, as her fiance, should've known she had a fear of heights. - Trucy
