Chapter 19- Dodg'em Shots

Chowa, Jela and Derek all got off the couch as they found themselves in trouble.

Chowa(Nominee): Sayde puts me up and the house lights up like it's the Fourth of July. I'm the target, but I feel like I have a shot to keep myself safe by winning the Veto. I can't wait for that moment.

Derek crossed his arms as he stood against the wall.

Derek(Nominee): Sayde says I don't pull my weight in this game, but what does that say about Arnold, who sits around all the time staring off into space. What does that say about Jela, who hasn't managed to win a competition yet. I've won HOH once and she's just a floater yet I'm the one not carrying any weight.

Jela hugged Arnold as he whispered something in her ear.

"Don't worry, you won't go home." Arnold promised.

Jela(Nominee): I'm up on the block due to America. Well, I don't plan on going down that easily. I will win the Veto and I have the votes to stay so it was a wasted opportunity for my haters out there.

"There are some petty people in this country." Jela muttered as she sat on her bed.

Cody: Chowa is on the block and this is the most opportune time to get rid of her. It's before Jury and she doesn't need to be deciding who wins this game.

XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX

Cody led Ellie, Conor and Tep up to the HOH Room to set up a meeting for a possible alliance.

"So what are we doing here?" Conor asked as he sat down on the couch.

"Me and Sayde were talking earlier about a possible alliance featuring us." Cody replied.

"I don't know. How can we trust Sayde?" Tep asked.

"I can assure you guys I'm clean. No more planning anything with Chowa." Sayde promised.

"I'm still not convinced. You still suggested Ellie and Chasi go up on the block." Conor reminded.

"Yeah, not exactly forgivable off the bat." Ellie added.

Cody: This is harder than I thought. These people are not convinced that Sayde has changed. Maybe a little motivation is in order.

"We agreed I would lead." Cody stated.

"I'm all for an alliance with you, but she's a different story." Conor explained.

"I'm keeping her in check. To make sure she doesn't rat us out to anyone." Cody explained.

Tep: We could use someone like Sayde to keep us in power, but a five person alliance is hard to keep track of. You have to worry if the house finds out or if one of our own rats us out.

Ellie: I'm not sure why Cody wants this alliance, because Sayde turned her back on me. I don't know if I can handle something like that again.

"You can use me also. I can keep an eye out for any possible threats." Sayde explained.

"A bird's eye view? That's handy." Tep stated.

"I'm still not sure. You were partly responsible for Pierce and Chasi heading out the door." Conor reminded.

Sayde(Head of Household): I get it! I did bad things, but I'm good now! Will you just believe me?!

"Those actions are in the past so leave it at that." Cody ordered.

"Okay. We're in then." Ellie stated.

Sayde sighed happily, but Tep got in her face.

"Just don't make us regret it." Tep warned.

"So what should we call ourselves?" Ellie asked.

"How about the Starter Pack?" Cody asked.

"That's kind of stupid, don't you think?" Tep asked.

"I'm cool with it. It has a nice ring to it." Conor replied.

"I really like the name. I'm so in!" Ellie added.

Cody smiled as he managed to form a big alliance, but that meant problems with his other alliance, Striker's Galore. He'll have to find out a way out of it soon before the Starter Pack is exposed.

XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX

Conor and Ellie were in the storage room as Conor was grabbing some chips.

"I think Cody could be making a huge mistake for his game." Conor stated.

"I mean, I don't trust Sayde, but if she can help get Chowa out, then she'll gain my trust a little." Ellie explained.

"I don't know. She didn't exactly tell us her plans if she won the Veto. She uses it on Chowa and we'll know it was a ruse." Conor stated.

Conor: I have a hard time believing that being in an alliance with Sayde would work. I'm always skeptical about the girls ever since my bud, Pierce, got the boot.

"I guess we'll have to see. I'm not using the Veto if I'm in." Ellie stated.

"Me either. Chowa is going home this week." Conor stated.

XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX

Sayde turned to see the slop for the week as she called everyone in so she could determine have nots.

"This is the slop for the week. Tep and Kimberly got the punishment of being on slop for two weeks from the last Battle of the Block competition. This will be the last week that punishment is in effect. I will now choose the last two have nots." Sayde announced.

Everyone was nervous and hoped Sayde would take pity on them.

"Chowa and Conor." Sayde chose.

Both houseguests groaned that they would be sharing a bedroom again.

Conor: Why am I in the same room with Chowa for the third time?! Sayde, please, I know we've had our differences, but we're on the same page...sorta.

Chowa(Nominee): I don't care that I'm in the Have Not Room. It's just Conor is annoying at nights. We fight in there 24/7 and he never stops snoring. How can Chasi stand this guy?

XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX

Jose met Cody in the storage room to talk about Dana.

"Are you mad at Arnold?" Cody asked.

"I'm pissed that he didn't tell me about his sister." Jose replied.

"Well, she came to me yesterday about wanting to join our alliance." Cody explained.

"What? Does Arnold know about this?" Jose asked.

"I don't know. He could've put her up to it." Cody replied.

Jose: I hate snakes in the group! Arnold has deceived the very people that are keeping him in this game for his sister. You gotta be kidding! After everything, this is the thanks I get.

"So are we going after him?" Cody asked.

"Yeah, he has the audacity to turn on me when I pulled him through this game." Jose replied.

Cody: It looks like Arnold is going to be Razor's first target. This will be the perfect opportunity for my new alliance to strike. Getting Arnold out will be a big burden off everyone's back and will take away any possible power from Chowa.

XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX

Cody headed up to the HOH Room as he reached the door and Sayde let him in. He sat down on the couch ready to disclose some information.

"So what's up?" Sayde asked.

"I talked with Jose in the storage room and he's livid about Dana. He's going after Arnold and I think this will be a chance to put him on notice." Cody replied.

"He would be an easy replacement." Sayde stated.

"This would also expose Jose as well. I've been around the guy and he's being sneaky. Getting him out helps out our game." Cody explained.

Sayde(Head of Household): This could help out our game especially if a double eviction is coming up. Arnold and Jose could be the next two out the door if things work out this week with Chowa heading home.

"We have the majority vote as well to send them home and then Dana will be next." Cody stated.

Cody: The only way to keep the Starter Pack a secret is to get rid of the old people. Arnold and Jose have been causing trouble since they came into the house so I guess it's time to send them on their way.

XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX

Tep was eating some oatmeal as he was a have not when Dana came by.

Dana: I need some votes to keep me and Arnold safe. That means actually socializing with the competition. I figured Tep could be a good start since Arnold said they weren't really enemies.

"Hey Tep." Dana greeted.

"Ah, you're the youngblood." Tep stated as he turned around.

"I guess so. Must be pretty hard being on slop." Dana figured.

"It's not so bad. I mean, the cold showers make me feel like I'm trapped in the Arctic and the bed makes me feel like I'm in prison, but other than that, it's fine." Tep explained.

"So I heard Chowa is a pain in the butt to deal with?" Dana asked.

"That's putting it mildly." Tep replied.

"Well, I don't like her. She seems really sketchy and not afraid to speak her mind." Dana stated.

"Well, she has balls...wait...you know what I mean. She's not afraid of showing what a...wait...little kiddies are watching." Tep explained.

Dana: A comedian, huh? Well, he's not afraid of making me feel glum. I think I'm getting nowhere with him.

"So any advice for this game?" Dana asked.

"Keep your brother in check and make sure that out is the last thing you wanna do." Tep replied.

Dana raised an eyebrow and just walked off into another room. Lots of weirdos around this place.

XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX

Sayde came through the Diary Room with a bag full of names.

"Hey everyone! It's time to pick players for the Veto competition!" Sayde exclaimed.

The houseguests cheered and whistles as they went into the living room. Chowa, Derek and Jela sat down on the couch.

"Only six players will play in the Veto competition. The Head of Household, the three nominees and two other houseguests selected at random draw. Will the nominees please join me up here." Sayde announced.

The three nominees joined Sayde up front as she began reading again.

"As Head of Household, I shall choose the remaining competitors." Sayde announced.

Sayde dug around in the bag and pulled out one name.

"Tep." Sayde announced.

Tep cheered as he joined the others up front smirking at Chowa.

"Cody." Sayde announced after pulling another name out.

Cody cheered as Ellie hugged him for luck and he joined Tep up front.

Cody: That's right! Three of the Starter Pack are in the Veto competition and Chowa should be shaking in her boots.

Chowa(Nominee): I'm alone in this competition, but I don't care, because this Veto is going to be mine for the taking. Then some poor sap will go up in my place. I'll be laughing all the way into next week.

"Big Brother will announce when the competition is ready. Good luck to everyone." Sayde announced the players cheered.

XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX

Kimberly came out of the Diary Room in a referee shirt. She blew her whistle and got the house's attention.

"Listen up team! It's time for the Veto competition!" Kimberly yelled.

The players cheered and clapped their hands.

"Get dressed and meet me in the backyard!" Kimberly demanded.

The six players made their way to the backyard which was set up like a sports field. There was a giant platform with nets hanging from them in the shape of a pyramid. Each net had a point value ranging from 1-30. Kimberly took her place and stepped onto the field.

Derek(Nominee): A sports challenge? Yeah! This is going to be an easy one to win! I'll show Sayde I can carry my own weight!

"Alright, this is the big game and you six are on the starting lineup. You will each take turns shooting a basketball through a hoop and you will earn a point value. The houseguest will the lowest score will be eliminated from the round. There will be six rounds and the last houseguests standing will win the Golden Power of Veto! Let's play 'Swishes Come True!'" Kimberly exclaimed.

Derek(Nominee): The week I go up...there's a sports challenge. I'll be able to swish those baskets like it's no tomorrow and win the Veto for sure.

"Sayde, you're up first." Kimberly stated as he blew her whistle.

Sayde stepped up and took a basketball dribbling it shooting it up into the #26 basket.

"You scored 26 points, Sayde!" Kimberly exclaimed.

Cody was next as he dribbled the ball and shot it upwards into the #15 basket.

"Cody, you've scored 15 points." Kimberly stated.

Derek smirked as he got a ball and shot it upwards into the #8 basket.

"Derek, you only scored 8 points." Kimberly stated.

Chowa took her turn getting a ball and dribbling it before shooting it into the #2 basket. She glared at the ball and huffed.

"Chowa, you scored 2 points." Kimberly stated.

Jela took her turn and shot her ball into the #17 basket.

"Jela, you've scored 17 points." Kimberly stated.

Tep started dribbling and shot his ball into the #26 basket.

"Tep, you scored 26 points. Chowa, you are benched from the game." Kimberly stated as she blew her whistle.

Chowa crosses her arms as she down on the bench.

Chowa(Nominee): I can't believe I got out the first round. This can't be happening. This has got to be some kind of joke.

The second round started as Sayde went first again. She scored 17 points to start off and Cody scored 4 points. Derek took his next turn and shot for the skies as he landed the ball in the #10 basket. Jela took her turn and shot the ball up into the #14 basket. Tep took his next turn and shot his ball making 26 points again.

"Cody, you are benched from the game." Kimberly announced as she blew her whistle.

Cody: I didn't need the Veto so I'm happy with getting out. Chowa got out first so that's all we needed to happen.

Round 3 started as Sayde started her next turn scoring 21 points, Derek making 28 points, Jela scoring 8 points and Tep scoring 13 points.

"Jela, you've been benched." Kimberly announced as she blew her whistle.

Jela(Nominee): I couldn't even save myself from the block, but I shouldn't be considered for eviction so I think I'm good for the week.

Sayde took her next turn and scored 5 points, Derek scored 17 points and Tep scored 27 points.

"Sayde, you've been benched from the game." Kimberly stated as she blew her whistle.

Tep vs Derek as Derek took his next turn scoring 13 points. Tep dribbled his ball and shot up into the basket scoring 12 points.

"Congratulations, Derek, you've won the Power of Veto!" Kimberly exclaimed.

Derek cheered as he was crowned the Power of Veto.

Derek(Nominee/Veto Holder): What did I tell you?! A sports challenge is the definite competition fit for me coming back! I showed Sayde up and that's all there is too it!

Sayde hugged Derek as congratulations.

Sayde(Head of Household): I didn't think Derek had it in him so I guess I'll have to find someone else to put on the block. Well played.

XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX

Jose was in the Shadow Room flipping his switchblade. Ellie came in as she tried navigating through the dark room.

"How do you see in here?" Ellie asked as she found a bed to sit on.

"The point is not to see genius." Jose replied.

"Well, all your rudeness aside, I like to thank you for cheering Chasi up." Ellie stated.

"Oh just forget about it." Jose retorted.

"Oh come on, you totally brighten her day up. I just thought you were some bad boy, but you've got a soft side." Ellie explained.

"Soft? Yeah right! Who do you think you're talking to? Duncan?" Jose asked.

"At least he embraced it." Ellie replied.

"Whatever. Just go mack on your boyfriend." Jose stated as he turned on his side.

Ellie smirked playfully and hugged Jose causing the hoodlum to widen his eyes.

"Hehehehehehehe...I'm not gonna let you live this down." Ellie stated.

"Are you blackmailing me?" Jose asked.

"No, but I know I'm not scared of you, softie." Ellie teased.

"You are gonna get it." Jose threatened.

"Sure I am. I'm gonna get cuddles from my Codykins." Ellie stated as she walked out of the room.

Jose: That girl is so annoying! I'm not a softie and anyone that tells me otherwise is a dead person. I should've known better than to stick around my happy place.

XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX

Cody and Conor met in the spare lounge room as they sat down.

Cody: I wanted to make sure Conor was on board with a plan in the near future. We have five people in this alliance so we have a numbers game.

"I was talking to Sayde about maybe booting Arnold and Jose. I've been around Jose and he's freaking' sneaky. He's the reason Dottie was evicted." Cody explained.

"So that's why you targeted her? Were you in an alliance with them?" Conor asked.

"No, I did what I did what was best for my game. He just manipulated me into putting up Dottie." Cody replied.

Conor: Jose, huh? Tep has told me about him and he even said he's shady. I guess we might have to focus on getting him out along with Arnold. With those two still here, that can't be good.

"He's looking to get me, Arnold and himself to the final three. He also wants Jela gone from what I hear." Cody explained.

"That's not good. Jela is a nice girl and she didn't deserve to be on the block." Conor stated.

"We also need to focus on Dana. This way we have all the potential threats to go after and get out early." Cody explained.

"I think that's a good plan." Conor stated as he shook Cody's hand.

They left the lounge making sure nobody was around.

XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX

Derek walked across the living room and stared at the Memory Wall as he grabbed the Veto.

Derek(Nominee/Veto Holder): I don't know what's running through Sayde's mind, but I can tell this eviction will be easy. Chowa seems to be the favorite to leave so I hope that comes true.

"Hey everyone. Time for the Veto meeting." Derek announced.

Everyone came inside as they sat down and Chowa plus Jela sat down on the nomination couch. Derek stood at his place where he would've normally sat.

"This is the Veto meeting. Myself, Chowa and Jela have been nominated for eviction, but I have the ability to Veto one of the nominations. It's going to be no surprise here and I am using the Veto to save myself." Derek stated.

Chowa rolled her eyes as Jela sighed.

"Sayde, since I've just vetoed one of your nominations, you must choose a replacement nominee to take my spot." Derek explained.

Sayde nodded as she got up front and looked at everyone.

"This nomination is not going to matter much since we know who's leaving. However, I have to put someone up so Arnold, I hope you don't mind being up here one more time." Sayde announced.

Arnold got up and sat down next to Chowa and Jela. He held Jela's hand as she blushed. Dana glared at those two then to Sayde. Derek came up front and looked at the box.

"This Veto meeting is adjourned." Derek explained as he closed the box.

Everyone started to get up while Jela and Arnold hugged each other.

Arnold(Nominee): I fully expected to go up on the block, but I have no idea if this is a plan to get me out and leave Dana vulnerable. This won't go unpunished.

Jela(Nominee): I think I'm the outcast in this row of nominees since I haven't revealed myself to the house. I think I should be good this week.

Cody hugged Sayde and glared at Chowa.

Cody: Nanananananananana! Hey, hey, goodbye! *points fingers at the camera*

Chowa(Nominee): I'm stuck here and I'm probably out the door next. Don't count on it though, because I have other ways of saving myself.
