All was silent in the elimination room. Bridgette and Courtney had just been eliminated. While most were indifferent about what had taken place, Cody was not.

"Courtney's gone. S-she's left the competition. Damn you, Duncan!" Cody fussed.

"Cody?" Gwen asked, stepping back into the room.

"Gwen? What are you doing here?" Cody asked the goth.

"Me? What are you doing here? And are you crying?" she questioned.

"N-nothing. And no, I'm not crying!" Cody protested, wiping tears from his eyes and sniffling.

"Sure, sure. Are you upset about your, girlfriend?" Gwen asked, cringing at the last word.

"We're not dating." Cody said blatantly.

"What?" Gwen asked.

"We aren't dating." Cody informed her. For some reason, he heard a huge gasp, and it didn't come from Gwen. Cody pinned it on the death trap of a plane.

"When'd you guys break up? Not that I wanted you guys to stay together of course." Gwen said.

"We were never dating."

"WHAT!?" Gwen yelled, standing up.

"We did it strategically." Cody explained.

"What use was it!?" Gwen exclaimed.

"To throw off Duncan, Sierra, and… you." Cody said, saying the latter sheepishly.

-Confessional-

"So, let me get this straight. Cody and the psychopath fake dated, just to throw me and my ex off." Gwen asked.

"..." The tape then cut off due to Gwen suddenly unleashing a large number of cuss words.

-Confessional End-

-Confessional-

"Yeah, that didn't come out right." Cody admitted.

"I definitely could have phrased that a lot better. Well, sorry Gwen."

-Confessional End-

Gwen suddenly got up and stormed out of the room. Little did either of them know that two of the other contestants were in the room with them. Not even they knew each other were in there, until one of them revealed themselves.

"Oh, Cody. I knew you'd never date that wretched beast!" Sierra exclaimed, leaping out from her hiding spot. She glomped him, basically strangling him as well.

"S-i-erra. Stop, p-please!" Cody pleaded. He struggled to get free, and his face turned blue.

"N-no!" Cody pleaded once again, before passing out.

"Oh, Cody. You fell for me! EEEE! I love you so much!" Sierra squealed. The other eavesdropper, slowly backed out of the room, trying to avoid the fangirl.

"Muchos gracias, amigos. Muchos gracias, for the great information." the not so mysterious figure said, as he left the room.

The next morning, no one could find Cody. They knew that while Cody was chosen to go to first class, they knew he wouldn't want to be in there. It's not like anyone cared though. Obviously Duncan and Alejandro wouldn't care, but Gwen was still butthurt about the night before.

Duncan was whistling nonchalantly. While doing this, he was carving his infamous skull into the bench where he was sitting.

"Smiling? Whistling? This is the happiest I've ever seen you!" Alejandro pointed out.

"Hey, now that Courtney's gone, everything's right with the world!" Duncan told him.

"What about you and Gwen? Aren't you two still off?" the latino asked.

"Yeah, but-" Duncan started, before Gwen walked into the room, interrupting his thoughts. "It's about to get better now." Duncan told Alejandro, before getting up to talk to Gwen.

"Hey Pasty, mornin'!" Duncan greeted.

"Screw off, Duncan." Gwen said, trying to get away from the punk.

"What'd I do?" the juvie teen asked.

"You know what you did."

"No, I don't" Duncan responded.

"YOU'VE BEEN A JACKA** THIS ENTIRE SEASON! SO HAVE YOU ALEJANDRO! AND COURTNEY! SIERRA'S CRAZY! OWEN AND TYLER ARE IDIOTS! AND CODY'S AGAINST ME NOW! I'M DONE!" Gwen yelled, shocking the punk and the latino.

"Woah, calm down there, Pasty." Duncan urged.

"Duncan, I swear to god." Gwen said.

"Swear what? You think I haven't had a rough season!? I quit because you and Princess kept arguing on that damn pyramid! When I got back, I kissed you, and it felt amazing! But then, Tyler spread it to the world! But, I didn't have a Cody to fall back on! I only had you as my friend!" Duncan started. "Everyone hates me! And I hate everyone!"

"Damn it, Duncan! I didn't have a Cody to fall back on!" Gwen explained.

"What? Of course you did!"

"No! He was hanging out with Courtney!" Gwen yelled.

"Oh, yeah, I didn't notice that." Duncan lied.

"Don't lie. I saw you constantly gaze over at Courtney. I counted three or four different times you watched them 'flirt'." Gwen shouted.

"Pfff. What! No- I mean, maybe once! Nah, nope!" Duncan failed to deny.

"Please, just go away. I hate you." Gwen asked calmly.

"Whatever! I'm glad we split! Best decision of my life!" Duncan claimed.

"You know that was her idea, right? And that you just went over there to get her back." Alejandro butted in.

"Shut up! You're not even in our conversation!" Duncan said childishly.

Meanwhile, in first class, Cody was finally stirring.

"S-Sierra? SIERRA!" Cody screamed, as Sierra was feeding him a weird soup. "What is this!"

"It's a really good soup! I got it from the bar up there." Sierra told the boy.

"Wait, ith thith thinnamon!?" Cody asked frantically.

"Yeah, so wha- OH CRAP! CODY, YOU'RE ALLERGIC TO CINNAMON! I TOTALLY FORGOT!" Sierra told him. "Oh, hehehe. I get to inject you with the epipen. I know I'm supposed to inject you in theI can do it through the clothes. But, what if, just be be safe, I take off those pants and… underwear." Sierra giggled.

The next day, Chris ordered for all contestants to come out of the plane, after a (surprisingly) safe landing. Gwen walked out first, to the sight of the grasslands. All that she could see was grasslands, bar the plane, a few trees, and the two other contestants walking out behind her.

"Uh, where are we?" Gwen asked. She looked around, and because there were no landmarks, her answer was questioned by someone else.

"Uh, this looks like some place in America. McClean, where are you!" Duncan yelled. For once, his ex actually agreed with him.

"Yeah, really Chris. We've been to Canada three times, already! Plus, we've been to America three time as well. And, Jamaica is right next to America! And we've been to Europe five different times! Pick somewhere original, for god's sake!" Gwen yelled out, looking around trying to spot the host.

"Ah, but this isn't America, though the name's are similar. It's Africa! The land of many animals! And oh boy, we've got one crazy animal." Chris hinted, appearing from behind the plane.

After jumping from surprise, Duncan asked, "And what kind of animal is that? And where are the geek and his wife?"

"Here we are!" Sierra said sweetly, as she walked out of the plane.

"What's with the suspiciously full backpack?" Gwen asked curiously. She was pointing at her backpack, which was full and lumpy, and had cans clanging from the back. Suddenly, Cody's head fell out of the backpack.

"Oh, that's my husband. Oh, it feels so good to say that. Cody's my husband! Cody's my husband! Cody's my hus-" Sierra chanted before being interrupted.

"Um, Chris. I know I shouldn't care, as he is the enemy, but is it safe to have Sierra and Cody in the same room?" Alejandro asked.

"I dunno." Chris said nonchalantly.

"Bing buh dump boo!" Cody mumbled.

"Pure poetry, my guy!" Chris jeered. Suddenly, two scared interns rolled out a huge, wooden crate, which was shaking so much that it neared falling over.

"W-what's in the crate?" Gwen asked, shrinking back.

"It's a wild animal!" Chris told the goth.

"A lion!?" Duncan asked fearfully.

"A tiger!?" Sierra continued.

"A bear!" Gwen exclaimed.

"Oh my." Cody ended, but his words were a little slurred.

"You guys do know that tigers and bears don't live in the the Serengeti, right?" Alejandro, hoping that they weren't that dumb.

"Yeah, just wanted to reference 'The Wiz-" Gwen started, before…

"STOP! We don't have the rights to that movie!" Chris interrupted, bringing attention back to him.

"Wait, what are you wearing?" Duncan asked, stifling a laugh.

"It's a traditional Serengeti get-up!" Chris said, pointing to his bald cap, and his robes. At this point, everyone burst out laughing, even Cody giggled a bit, but he was in his own world. Gwen noticed this, but looked away, trying to ignore the incapacitated boy. But she ended up looking back in worry.

"Everyone shut up! We have time limit! So, this is a challenge I like to call, 'Sock it to Me!'" Chris announced. "You all must run out and get some fruit, then run back, all the while trying to avoid your peers kicking soccer balls at you. Sorry, footballs for all you foreign viewers." Chris added, trying not to offend anyone.

"Gwen, you're up first!" Chris told the blue and black haired competitor.

The goth ran out, dodging her competition's kicks. She picked up about ten, trying not to get greedy, and ran back. Duncan, obviously spiting her, kicked ferociously, and knocked her down, but it left her with seven left.

"Damn." Duncan complained, snapping his fingers in defeat.

"Since you spoke, Duncan, you're next!" Chris said.

"Have we still not addressed what's in the crate?" Gwen asked. Chris ignored her, and used his whistle, signifying Duncan's start. Despite both Gwen and Alejandro wanting him gone, he acted cocky, doing a dance as he walked over to the basket full of fruits.

Once he got them, he moonwalked back in a comedic fashion. This failed though, both in the competition, and the humor. Alejandro, being great at soccer, kicked at full force, leaving Duncan with only one fruit.

"Sierra, and I guess the Codester, you're up!"

Sierra got ready, and took off as fast as she could.

"I'll do it fo CODERRA!" Sierra shrieked, grabbing as many as she could. She turned around, and tripped on her own cans, without even being kicked at. All the fruits smashed into her face, leaving her with zero, but Chris, for the sake of the challenge, gave her one to work with, to the dismay of everyone else.

"Did we winz?" Cody asked, who was slowly coming to.

"Oh, Codykinz! You're finally awake!" Sierra greeted, nuzzling the half-asleep boy.

"Last, but certainly not least, Alejandro!" Chris said.

-Confessional-

Alejandro sat in the confessional, filing his fingers. "My brother Carlos is an expert soccer player. These suckers are going DOWN!" Alejandro told the audience, pointing his finger down for dramatic effect.

-Confessional End-

Alejandro confidently jogged up to the basket, and picked up as much as he could. As he went back, Gwen kicked at him first, and he ducked that. And because he ducked it, it hit Duncan in the face as soon as he kicked, which Alejandro kicked away, hitting Duncan again. Sierra was the last one to kick, which Alejandro kicked back. Sierra turned around, leaving Cody wide open to get soccer balled in the face.

"Alright, to answer Gwen's question from earlier, we will be revealing the monster in the crate." Chris announced.

"And that monster is…!"

Author's Note: Haha! Gotcha! You don't know what the monster is! Is it still Ezekiel? Or is it something entirely new!? Who knoOoOoOws! The suspense! Plus, I'm really tired, and this is a good enough chapter on its own. Anyways, I'll see you guys in a few days!
