Previously on, Survivor,

Morrigan was upset over the vote that sent Dante home, furious that he was seen as less valuable then Jill, whom she thought to be dangerous. Morrigan knew she was the next to go, and was biding her time before she left.

At the Nintendo tribe, as Bowser complained over the lack of swimming pool from coming in second place, Marth and Rosalina grew a little closer, as Marth had begun to distrust Link a little more. He had believed Link was out for himself, and not for the goodness of the team.

At the Sega tribe, as Wave and Pudding bickered over the work ethic, Vyse came up with a plan with Gum. He wanted to bring Pudding into their alliance, and scrap Reala. He didn't trust the jester, and even though Pudding was weak and worthless, he believed her bond with Gum could help. Gum agreed with Vyse, and went with the plan.

At the reward challenge, Capcom shot their way to victory, earning them a good amount of bathroom supplies. Link was sent to Exile Island, where he found a clue to the immunity idol. He had planned to share it with everyone, including Bowser, as Bowser will likely want to know about it.

With the bathroom stuff won, Capcom got right to work cleaning themselves up. Morrigan used this opportunity to try and flirt using her naked body, especially to the likes of Issun and Phoenix. Mega Man didn't seem affected, being a robot.

Back at Nintendo, without Link around, Bowser was a very grumpy king with only Rosalina and Marth around camp. Despite his grumpiness, Bowser tried to get Rosalina and Marth pumped up, as Nintendo was falling, and they needed to make a comeback.

While both Capcom and Nintendo were fairly light hearted, over at Sega it was a different story. Reala had, like most things, discovered Vyse's plan, and brought it up to Gum casually. He then tried to make Gum see that she was fourth no matter what, and that Pudding would be used as a mere goat. With Gum concerned about her future, she aligned with Reala to take down Vyse and Wave.

At the immunity challenge, Pudding almost put Sega behind during the beginning, but it was thanks to Bowser who pretty much outroared both her and Phoenix in leading Nintendo to their first 1st place victory. Shortly after, Pudding made a comeback, and Sega won yet another challenge. Capcom was sent to lose their second member.

Before tribal council, everyone was convinced Morrigan was going home next, even Morrigan herself. However, moments later, Jill went to have a small chat with her master, Albert Wesker. He instructed Jill to get a vote against Mega Man, as he claimed he would be very dangerous later on. Despite Jill's worries that it wouldn't work, she agreed to the plan. However, Phoenix caught the whole scene, and warned Amaterasu and Mega Man about it. Just like that, plans had changed.

At tribal council, Jill was half stunned when she saw herself become the fourth person to leave Survivor Kattlelox Island. Morrigan fights to live another day. 14 are left, who'll be voted out tonight?

Capcom: Amaterasu, Mega Man, Morrigan, and Phoenix

Nintendo: Bowser, Link, Marth, and Rosalina

Sega: Gum, Joe Musashi, Pudding, Reala, Vyse, and Wave

Capcom Day 13

After returning from the vote, Morrigan was still slightly surprised that she had survived. She was half thankful, and half amazed at their decision.

"You know, I didn't even expect to survive that vote. Maybe they came to their senses, or maybe they're just afraid of the big threats, and they don't even see me as a threat. Whatever the case, I am happy to still be here, and it's just a sign that the game is far from over." - Morrigan

Morrigan set her torch aside, and wandered off into the jungle. Issun scoffed at her as she left, shaking his head, "No thank you?! Ungrateful, I'd say!"

Phoenix shrugged, "I didn't expect her to anyway. But listen, all three of you, we need to get Morrigan on our good side. This needs to be a sign of good will towards her. If we continue to outcast her, she'll turn on us."

Amaterasu barked at Phoenix, with Issun replying, "Ammy says that seems a little too late for that.."

"I'm a believer in good graces. What we did last night needs to show Morrigan that we want her to stay, and that we need her in our alliance. Right now, Capcom is four players, and a swap could be happening at any moment. We need to be ready for anything, am I right?" - Phoenix

Phoenix shrugged once more, "I get what you're saying, Amaterasu, but we don't have a choice. We need to recruit her. Make her an offer she can't refuse."

"Maybe you can lie to her?" suggested Mega Man, "Tell her that she's going to the end with you and Ammy. That's the best option."

"Why us and not you?" wondered Issun.

"Because it's believable. She probably thinks I'm a larger threat to win over you both, honestly." replied Mega Man.

"I already know I'll be a threat as more and more players get voted off. I cannot fly below the radar for very long, so having me pretend to be fourth in Morrigan's mind might ease her sorrow. At least, I think it will." - Mega Man

After a few more words with Amaterasu and Mega Man, Phoenix nodded, and left the area. He made his way towards the beach where Morrigan was, taking a seat next to her.

Morrigan looked over at Phoenix, and gave a small smile, "I have to say, thank you for last night. I for sure thought I was a goner."

"Nothing to it, Morrigan," smiled Phoenix, "You and Dante were right about Jill.. she just couldn't be trusted."

"We turned the tide against Jill, and now we need that tide to come back in with Morrigan. If this plan works, Capcom might see a strong comeback in this game, I guarantee it." - Phoenix

"I couldn't lie to you, Phoenix," smirked Morrigan, "After all... lawyers are much smarter then they appear."

"I know, right? You have me there." laughed Phoenix, before clearing his throat, "Listen, I want to make an offer with you. We need you on our side, 100%. If we don't work together, none of us will win this game. Final 3, you, me, Amaterasu?"

Morrigan raised an eyebrow, "Seems... sudden. Why not Mega Man?"

"He's going to be a major threat down the line. We'll need him, but... we won't need him in the finals." replied Phoenix.

"This may not work, but I need Morrigan to believe my lie. Getting Morrigan to believe my lie would be a huge blessing for my game, and with it, we can take control of this game, and be more on our toes come a merge or a swap." - Phoenix

"Hmm... seems reasonable in my mind," noted Morrigan, making mental notes in her head, "Alright then, Mr. Wright, we have a deal. You better not screw me over with this.."

Phoenix smiled brightly, shaking her hand, "You won't regret it, Morrigan. For Capcom, we will win!"

"I don't trust Phoenix for a split second. Let's be real here, he knows by casting Jill aside, he loses a loyal vote, and I do not make up for a 'loyal vote'. If something happens in the near future, I will show my gratitude by... taking out the Capcom tribe." - Morrigan

Nintendo Day 13

Bowser was off taking a hike in the woods for his own meal, which left the rest of the tribe behind back at camp. Link saw this as a grand opportunity to show off his immunity idol clue.

"Is he gone yet?" wondered Link, looking out into the woods.

Marth nodded, "Yeah, so do you have it?"

Link nodded, reaching into his tunic pocket, taking the clue out, and sharing it with Marth and Rosalina.

"The good thing about having the idol clue is that I can share it with players I know I can trust. Even Bowser, because he likes me the most, and won't likely ever screw me over. I know he'll have to see it too, because he probably won't leave me alone until I do." - Link

"Thank you, Link," smiled Rosalina, "Do you think it's on this island, or Exile Island?"

"Definitely Exile Island," replied Link, "I mean, it's unlikely it would be here on the island. The clues don't really match up with anything on our beach, and believe me, I've checked."

"We shouldn't tell Bowser. I mean, he's going next anyway, does it matter?" wondered Marth.

Link shook his head, "Not really, but it's better off on us if he knows. He's the next to go, but as long as he thinks he has control, he'll be pretty good here."

"As I expected, Link wants to share the clue with Bowser. It's just... why? There's zero point other then keeping the peace around here. What if he were to get the hidden immunity idol? I just... I don't know what Link is thinking right now." - Marth

Rosalina nodded, "I slightly agree with you. We've been doing good in challenges, lately. We may all make it into the merge phase if we're lucky. If that happens, Bowser will not betray his own supposed kingdom."

"Exactly. I'm going to go find Bowser, and show him the clue, alright?" smiled Link, reassuringly, before wandering off into the jungle.

After Link left, Marth looked at Rosalina, "I mean... I'm glad Pichu and Falco are gone, but... really? Was Bowser always meant to last over them? The longer he stays, the more arrogant he gets."

Rosalina shrugged, "In my mind, Bowser and Falco would've been the first two out, but I do not have a say in this."

"Pichu and Falco were the right moves for this tribe, in order to keep the strong and the hard working. Bowser... is a stain on an otherwise perfect tribe. More I think about it... maybe Link isn't at fault for keeping Bowser this long? Ugh, my mind's spinning back and forth on this issue. To trust, or not to trust?" - Marth

Meanwhile, in the forest, Link and Bowser were having a small conversation after Link showed the clue to Bowser.

"Excellent work, Link!" smirked Bowser, "Now we just need to find this idol, and keep tabs on it at all costs!"

"The idol is likely on Exile Island," explained Link, "So we need to probably throw the reward challenge in order for one of us to get picked, you know?"

"A smart, strong plan!" laughed Bowser, doing an arm pump, "Man I wish you were my villain! You'd make great competition compared to that cheap, pathetic Mario."

Link sweat dropped a little, rubbing the back of his head, "Uhh... sure?"

"I am carrying Nintendo on my shell! We easily won the last immunity challenge. Without the weak, whiny Pichu and the annoying, lazy Falco on our team, we will be steamrolling everyone in our way! The Koopa Kingdom will rise to the top! Oh yeah, I rule!" - Bowser

– – – – –

Sega Day 13

In the pool, Gum and Pudding were relaxing, and chilling out.

"Today's been a nice sunny day, don't you think?" asked Pudding, "Man, I bet the vacation you go on after being voted out must be fantastic!"

Gum nodded, "Oh, I hope so! Course I have no plans for that vacation. I'm here til the end, baby!"

Pudding shrugged, "I don't know.. seems a lot better going on that then spending it here, y'know?"

"13 days in, and we've won every challenge. I want to play Survivor, but instead, we're just sitting on our asses, and not really playing the damn game! If this continues, I might just bow out and go on that promised vacation you get after the game." - Pudding

"Perhaps so," laughed Gum, "but we'll be at the top before you know it. Say, um, listen..."

"Hmm?" wondered Pudding, looking at Gum.

"Vyse and Wave are trying to take us to the Final 4," explained Gum, "But according to Reala, it might just be a ploy to use you as their jury goat. They think you're not going to get any votes."

Pudding rolled her eyes, "Wow, really? They actually expect that out of me? I $#%#ing hate Wave's bitch-ass attitude, and Vyse is just a preppy fanboy. Sorry, but I associate with neither. It'll hurt my reputation."

"If you want someone on your side, you need a good impression. Vyse and Wave are idiots if they think they can get me to join them, and put up with them as far as the freaking Final 3! Nope, not happening, I'm not your little tool to win one of you a million bucks, that I bet you'll waste immediately." - Pudding

Gum smirked, nodding her head, "That's good to hear, sister. Listen, it's me, you, Reala, and Musashi. We're voting Vyse out first for strategic reasons. I know you hate Wave more, but trust me, it's for the better."

Pudding rolled her eyes, "Fine, whatever. It'll be worth watching her ugly little face just be shocked and saddened to see her boy toy go home."

"I got Pudding on board, and she's very eager to take out Vyse and Wave. Reala... as much as I don't trust him, to go all the way with Vyse, Pudding, and Wave to only end up fourth is not the option for me. Beat, babe, I hope you agree with me on this back home." - Gum

Gum and Pudding fist bumped eachother, before returning to soaking in the warm water. Meanwhile, deep in the jungle, Vyse and Joe Musashi were having a chat. Vyse was cutting up wood with the tribe's red machete.

"I am surprised, Vyse," noted Joe Musashi, "You brought me all the way here, saying it was big news. However, it seems all it was was to alert me that Pudding was to go first?"

Vyse nodded, shrugging, "Yeah well, it's just... well you're a ninja. I figured if I make it look like a big deal, you'd come with me."

Joe Musashi's expression tensed up a little, he closed his eyes, "...very well. By the way, Vyse... did you happen to get a clue to the hidden immunity idol? It's been ten days, and I have not heard a word about it."

Vyse blinked for a moment, before shrugging, "...didn't see one, dude. I don't think there are idols this season. Trust me, I would've told the tribe about it if I had. Sega forever, right?"

"I had to lie to Musashi, and afterwards I was like... '#%$%!', because I lied to a ninja. A NINJA! I have no doubt that he knows I'm lying already, so... I just have to bite my tongue and just move on with it. It's not like he can do much right now." - Vyse

"Indeed." agreed Joe Musashi, watching Vyse a little bit longer before leaving in a cloud of smoke.

"I expected more out of you, Vyse. To lie to a ninja is one thing, but to lie about being all for the good of Sega tribe is another. Reala and I both know what you are up to, and we will not respect you for it. As far as I am concerned, his days are numbered." - Joe Musashi

– – – – –

"Come on in guys!"

All three tribes arrived at the challenge area.

"Nintendo, Sega, getting your first look at the new Capcom tribe; Jill voted out at the last tribal council."

Everyone was slightly surprised at the vote, which made some of them consider what Capcom was up to.

"Guy's ready for today's reward challenge?"

Everyone nodded excitedly.

"For today's challenge, two tribe members will be abandoned out at sea on platforms. The other two tribe members must rescue them. They will paddle out on a raft, and retrieve both tribe members. Once all four are on board, you will continue to the flag, grab it, and then paddle back to shore. First tribe back, wins reward."

Jeff revealed fishing supplies.

"Fishing supplies, because let's face it: fish is the main source of food out here if you want protein. Fruits and rice? Worthless because fish will be much better. In this kit, you will have hooks, tackle, line, bait, and a fishing spear and rod. But that's not all what you're playing for."

Everyone listened closely.

"The tribe that finishes last, will no longer exist. You will be dissolved and split evenly amongst the other two tribes. We have many variables depending on who wins and loses, so we'll get to that when we have the results. Let's get started."

Nintendo

Raft: Bowser and Link

Rescuing: Rosalina and Marth

Sega

Raft: Vyse and Joe Musashi

Rescuing: Pudding and Wave

Capcom

Raft: Mega Man and Phoenix

Rescuing: Morrigan and Amaterasu

"Survivors ready? GO!"

All three tribes got off to an amazing start right out of the gate. Nintendo pulled ahead a little early, and they managed to rescue Rosalina quickly. Sega and Capcom were a little slow to start, but were both even.

With Rosalina joining Nintendo, they had one extra rower then Sega or Capcom, but it didn't make anything easier for Nintendo. They were becoming out of sync with their rowing, and Bowser shouting at both Link and Rosalina wasn't helping. Both Sega and Capcom managed to rescue Pudding and Morrigan respectively, and tie it up with Nintendo.

Sega started to get a tad off track quickly after getting Pudding, with Vyse and Joe Musashi somewhat regretting to have her in the challenge. Capcom caught up to Nintendo, and they were making a beeline for their fourth member. Soon, both Nintendo and Capcom rescued Marth and Amaterasu.

Both Gum and Reala were cheering for Sega, with Gum doing a small little cheerleader moment beside him, calling "Go S-E-G-A! GOOO SEGA!". This little boost in morale managed to get Sega back on track, and catch up to Capcom and Nintendo, saving Wave from the platform. All tribes were now heading for the flag.

Nintendo got to their flag first before either Capcom or Sega, as Link reached over to grab the flag. With the flag in their hands, all Nintendo needed to do was make it to the end and come in first.

Sega, being the latest team to get their last member, was way behind both tribes, especially when Capcom managed to get their flag, heading back towards the shore to win. Sega was really struggling and needing to make up lost time.

But that was far from the truth for them, as Nintendo was slowing down thanks to Bowser falling out of sync with the rest of his tribe. Sega finally managed to get to their flag, and Vyse grabbed it immediately before Sega started to race back.

With Sega trying to catch up, it was between Nintendo and Capcom for the first spot... and with more ground covered...

…

…

…

...it was Nintendo who seized victory.

"JUST LIKE THAT! NINTENDO WINS REWARD! THEY STAY A TRIBE!"

All of Nintendo hugged and cheered.

Capcom was getting close to shore, but Sega was slowly but surely making a beeline towards shore. Capcom had gotten a tad too comfortable with their position that they forgot about Sega even being behind them.

In the end...

…

…

…

…

...Sega just barely beat Capcom by a hair.

"SO CLOSE! SEGA STAYS ALIVE! Capcom, unfortunately, is no longer a tribe."

All of Sega hugged and cheered, while all of Capcom said their goodbyes, unaware of who would go where.

"First off, Nintendo, strong effort today at the challenge. You will win fishing supplies back at camp, and you'll have a lot of fish to eat soon. Sega, came close, and after lagging behind, you manage to stay alive. Capcom, sadly, you have fallen down, and because of that, you are no longer a tribe. You will be dissolved. Please drop your buffs."

They all sadly dropped their buffs to the ground. Morrigan was slightly happy, but appeared sad.

"Nintendo, since you won, you will get to make all the decisions today. You will pick three players that you, as a whole, want on your tribe. Whomever you don't pick will go to Sega as it's only new member. Make the first pick, followed by the next two picks."

After some discussion...

"Amaterasu." replied Link.

Amaterasu was slightly surprised she was picked first. Regardless, she took a red buff from Jeff, and joined Nintendo.

"Mega Man." continued Link.

Mega Man shook Phoenix and Morrigan's hands before taking a red buff from Jeff, joining the Nintendo tribe.

"And for our last pick, we want... Phoenix." finished Marth.

Phoenix closed his eyes for a moment, taking a deep breath before accepting his red buff and joining Nintendo. Morrigan gave a friendly, seductive wave to the Sega tribe as she took the blue buff, joining them.

"So, the new Nintendo tribe is now Amaterasu, Link, Marth, Rosalina, Mega Man, Bowser, and Phoenix. The new Sega tribe is Gum, Reala, Morrigan, Pudding, Joe Musashi, Wave, and Vyse. These will be our new tribes for a long time, so get used to them. Have fun getting to know eachother, and I'll see you for the next immunity challenge."

Nintendo: Amaterasu, Bowser, Link, Marth, Mega Man, Phoenix, and Rosalina

Sega: Gum, Joe Musashi, Morrigan, Pudding, Reala, Vyse, and Wave

Nintendo Day 14

"Welcome to Nintendo, guys!" smiled Link, leading the tribe into their camp. Bowser was hauling all the fishing supplies, already talking about what he was going to catch.

Phoenix, Mega Man, and Amaterasu were happy with the shelter design, and found it to be a huge upgrade, 'sides the Bowser appeal.

"It might have Bowser's face all over it, but it's a better shelter then what we had at Capcom, quite frankly. I feel comfortable in this tribe, but still, it's 4 against 3, and I'm one of the 3. Those aren't good odds." - Mega Man

"Wow, no wonder you guys came in second over us," smiled Phoenix, "Sega must have a mansion, you know?"

Bowser laughed, "That would make me laugh. They'd better, too, because this shelter is the best damn thing I ever built without the standard supplies."

"Today was... a bit of a strange day indeed. Capcom is no more, and now we're joined with Nintendo. My entire alliance is here, and Morrigan is on Sega, where she will no doubt be... dead? I don't know, but right now, we're here, she's not. We can't worry about her." - Phoenix

After Bowser stopped messing with the fishing supplies, he turned to face everyone, "Listen up, Capcom people, you are not allowed in that shelter. Only pure Nintendo members allowed! Why waste resources on people we'll eventually vote off? No reason that's why!"

Issun growled, hopping up and down on Amaterasu's nose, "Hey buddy! That's not fair! We need somewhere to eat and sleep too!"

"Does it look like I care, flea boy?" sneered Bowser. This only angered Issun further.

Link immediately stepped in front of Bowser, "Okay, okay, that's enough. Come on, King Bowser... lay off of them. We're in this together. Besides, if we work together, we can defeat the dominate Sega tribe. Those are the true threats right now."

"Of course, I expected Bowser to be a problem once we stepped onto the beach, but he should know better then to outcast Capcom like that. We're not going to use Outworld or Cynthia tactics, because that will only make us look terrible." - Link

"...Fine. Whatever, go do your damn hero stuff." muttered Bowser, "I'm going to catch a shark or something like that." With that said, he grabbed the spear, and stomped over to the ocean, performing his signature Bowser Bomb attack, and landing in the water.

Link shook his head, looking at the three newcomers, "Look, I'm sorry about his attitude. He was this way when Falco and Pichu were here, and... just ignore him. Okay?"

"I've dealt with people like him in the law world," chuckled Phoenix, scratching the back of his head, "I just hope you see the worth in us to keep us around over him. Bad timing to bring that up, but... kinda obvious where we stand."

Rosalina smiled at him, "We'll see what happens. Bowser's been the next to go for a long time, you know. I think you three combined are worth keeping around."

"I respect the new Capcom players on our tribe. Amaterasu is a goddess, and she's very graceful around camp. Phoenix is a gentleman, kinda of, I think. Mega Man is also a sweet boy, even if he is a robot. If I had no allegiances with Link or Marth, I would join them in an instant, but that's not the case." - Rosalina

– – – – –

Sega Day 14

Morrigan sighed a huge breath of relief, now that she was away from the Capcom tribe.

"No matter how you look at things, I was a dead woman walking on that horrid tribe. We're no longer together, and now our fates have changed.. for better or for worse? We shall see. I am on the winning tribe thus far, but anything's possible." - Morrigan

"I hope you like our camp!" smirked Gum, showing Morrigan around, with Wave and Vyse following them, "We may have jumped the shark during our shelter building, but I think we built a nice one."

Morrigan shrugged, "Better then ours, for sure. But I am looking forward to that swimming pool. I hope you don't mind me bathing naked in it, do you?"

Wave shrugged, "We'll see if Vyse cares to stare."

Vyse growled, laughing a little, "I am not a pervert, dang it! If anything maybe Musashi's the pervert, always hiding from us."

"We weren't given a choice in who we got from the Capcom tribe, but in my mind whoever we got we needed to vote off immediately. Morrigan? Easy off for us, mainly because of her status as a succubus and her flirty ways." - Vyse

"Hmm... where is everyone?" wondered Morrigan.

"Pudding's in the pool, like always," muttered Wave, "Musashi's out fruit collecting, I think he said, and I swear I saw Reala somewhere."

Morrigan nodded, "Well, I'm just going to go introduce myself, then. Thank you for the tour, you three." She smiled, before floating off towards the jungle.

Vyse shook his head, "I don't know guys... Morrigan goes first? Or are we still set on Joe?"

Wave nodded, "Morrigan. That's only because I don't trust her, and with these new tribes, Nintendo might have an edge against us."

"With Capcom pretty much merging with Nintendo as a whole, I can only imagine if they've grown stronger. They have the strength of Link, Bowser, Mega Man... the brains of Rosalina, Phoenix, and Amaterasu... they will be a tribe to be reckoned with." - Wave

Meanwhile, Morrigan wandered off into the forest. She spotted Reala and Joe Musashi talking with one another. Morrigan smirked, and decided to sneak up on them.

"He said that to you?" asked Reala, after hearing what Joe Musashi said about Vyse yesterday, shaking his head, "Well, it's something we can use as reasoning he'll understand, rather then just being a simple blindside."

Joe Musashi nodded, and turned his head when he heard Morrigan's footsteps, "...and sneaking up on a ninja is not an ideal greeting, young lady."

Morrigan shrugged, "Oh, I'm sorry. I didn't mean to walk in on anything.."

"Yesterday, we had decimated the Capcom tribe, and won Morrigan as a correlation prize. This is not a bad thing, per say. Depending on how she stands with her old tribe mates, she can be a strong weapon, or a dud." - Reala

"No no, nothing important for you to know, my dear," smirked Reala, turning his attention to her, "But... I am intrigued to know more about your fellow tribe members. Care to say?"

Morrigan giggled softly, crossing her arms, "You think I was on the oust? Could it just be because I was not picked?"

Reala shrugged, "I just get these vibes, miss. You seemed... eager to take that yellow buff off."

"I like Reala. He's an interesting fellow, and very intellectual. I believe he'll be willing to help me along in this game, and I have no problem with that, truthfully. If he's as villainous as I think he is, he might be good to follow, and reap the rewards." - Morrigan

Morrigan sighed, before letting out a smirk, "Alright, you win, Reala. Yes, I was on the oust on the old Capcom tribe. The other three? Alliance. They only kept me because Jill was acting really strange."

"Shame too. I kept wondering to myself why they kept removing the strong." noted Joe Musashi.

"Doesn't matter any more," replied Reala, "You're on the winning tribe now, Morrigan. Also, you have my word you are safe from the first vote we have. Trust me, and you will be just fine."

Morrigan nodded, and shook Reala's hand firmly, "Fair enough. Keep me posted, okay?"

"Morrigan joining our tribe was excellent, in my opinion. I gain another loyal vote, and now my alliance is up to five; myself, Musashi, Gum, Pudding, and her. Vyse and Wave have no idea what's in store for them, and that pleases me very much." - Reala

– – – – –

"Come on in guys!"

All three tribes arrived at the challenge area.

"Guy's ready for today's immunity challenge?"

Everyone nodded excitedly.

"I'll take back immunity from both tribes, but now we only need one idol, since there are only two tribes."

Phoenix and Morrigan both did so, with Jeff placing one of them on the ground, keeping the other on the pedestal.

"For today's challenge, five members of each tribe will take turns crossing a series of balance beams to the other side. At the other side are flags which you must carry back, and place back at your platform. If you fall, another player will enter the ring to take your spot, and if you have a flag, you must drop it. First tribe to get five flags, wins immunity, guaranteed at least one more day and a 1 in 13 shot at the title of Sole Survivor. Let's get started."

Nintendo

In order of rotation: Link, Mega Man, Bowser, Amaterasu, and Marth

Sega

Caller: Pudding
Blindfolded: Wave, Vyse, Reala, Gum, and Joe Musashi

"Survivors ready? GO!"

Link and Wave walked out onto their beams, and slowly made their way towards the other side. Half way across though, Wave took a small fall, and needed to start over. Link on the other hand made easy work of the beams, and collected Nintendo's first flag.

Mega Man and Vyse wandered off onto the balance beams, with Vyse wanting to make up for Wave's mistake. Both of them made it to the other side, grabbed a flag, and moved forward. However, Mega Man lost his footing almost close to home, and dropped, losing his flag. Vyse scored for Sega, tying it up 1-1.

The villains Bowser and Reala were next up on the course. Nintendo kept telling Bowser to take his time, and not to screw around. This time, compared to the last two players, worked well for both Reala and Bowser. Both of them managed to score a flag for their tribes.

Amaterasu and Gum were out on the course, and Amaterasu showed some amazing balance skills as she skillfully maneuvered her way to the other side. Gum, meanwhile, fell off by accident when she was about to grab a flag, slowing Sega down, and giving Nintendo another lead, 3-2.

Marth and Joe Musashi were the last players out on the course before the rotation reset, and Joe Musashi needed to make up for lost time. Both players managed to grab a flag and make it back to their platforms. However, Marth made a risky move by blocking Joe Musashi's path, causing him to abruptly stop, and change directions, and that only made him fall. Nintendo drove further into the lead, 4-2. They only needed one more flag to win, and beat Sega once and for all.

Link and Wave went back out onto the course, and Link was starting to get a little arrogant about his position in the challenge. He was nearly making a beeline for the other side. His speed was his downfall, making him fall off towards the end. Wave, this time, took her time, and scored a flag for Sega.

Vyse and Mega Man went back out onto the course again, and repeated the same steps to get a flag, and make it back to the platform. Vyse had a trick up his sleeve, and mimicked Marth's move from earlier against Mega Man. Mega Man was not the best balancer, and just having to turn caused him to fall, giving Sega more of an edge, 4-4.

It was all down to Bowser and Reala now. Whomever got back to the platform first won the challenge. So far, they were the only duo to not have a fall in the entire run, so it was only a matter of time before the challenge was over.

In the end..

…

…

…

…

...Bowser made it mere seconds before Reala.

"BOWSER IS FIRST! NINTENDO WINS IMMUNITY!"

All of Nintendo hugged and cheered.

"Great job Nintendo! For the most part, you are merely two tribes combined into one, minus Morrigan. This proves that while Sega was a beast, both tribes combined were enough to beat them. Sega, sadly, you face your first vote. Someone will be voted off tonight. See you then."

– – – – –

Sega Day 15

As the tribe returned from the challenge, they were all pretty upset over the first lost.

"Damn, and we were so close too!" complained Vyse, shaking his head in frustration.

"It is apparent we underestimated the new Nintendo tribe." noted Joe Musashi, crossing his arms.

"Man! Sega's first lost today did not feel right at all! But... I knew it was coming, and with the three tribes becoming two, it was going to be a bigger battle then before. Today, we lost, and tonight, we make the first vote, and I think it's an obvious one." - Vyse

Wave shrugged, "We'll get them next time, it's not like we've gotten any weaker, we just gained some extra baggage." She looked over at Morrigan, who was off in the distance, "And speaking of baggage..."

Vyse nodded, looking at everyone else, whom were around the shelter, "Yep, I think it's pretty clear we need to stick pure Sega, and go for Morrigan tonight, deal?"

Everyone nodded their heads, agreeing to the plan, but of course, more then half of the tribe was lying.

"Please, I don't believe Vyse for one second. For all we know, he and Wave are going to try and blindside someone else! For the last several days, their target has been Musashi, and now it's Morrigan. They are so flippy floppy that its pretty scary." - Pudding

A few moments later, Reala was speaking with Gum and Pudding out in the forest, cutting open a coconut with the machete.

Pudding shrugged, "Vyse is an idiot, but Wave's a bitch. Can't we just save him for next, and gun for her now?"

"Listen, dear Pudding," explained Reala, "Wave's a bitch, and we know it. But think of it like this... we take Vyse out, Wave will freak out... and if she makes it to the merge and turns against Sega, we'll all be on the jury, most likely. The sad truth is that she will be screwed for merely being the outsider. Isn't that revenge enough?"

"Pudding wants Wave out, and that can't happen. I always see players gun for the weaker players, and not the strong players. Even if we weaken the tribe, what matters? Vyse is more likely to get support, whereas Wave won't. Her attitude turns others off, you see." - Reala

"Heh... yeah I guess you're right," smirked Pudding, "She'll also have that shocked face, and I love when that happens, especially to someone I despise. Fine, Vyse it is, and it'll be so worth it."

Gum nodded, crossing her arms, "I hope you're being straight up with us, Reala. We're taking a chance with you and Musashi, don't screw us over."

Reala smirked, "No need to be afraid, Gum. If I wasn't being so sincere, you'd have figured it out by now."

"If the plan to vote Vyse off screws me over, it's my own damn fault for trusting Reala. And you know what, I got to trust my instincts. My instincts right now, like Pudding, are to follow the bad guys, and watch them burn in the end. Vyse and Wave? They're a more powerful duo." - Gum

After agreeing to the plan, everyone split off from the area. Reala floated off to find Morrigan, and saw her relaxing in the pool. He then flew over, and laid down on his side behind her.

"Hello there, my dear Morrigan." he smirked.

Morrigan didn't seemed startled, turning her head to look at him, "Oh, why hello there, Reala. Come to share the news of the vote, have you?"

"How observant," noted Reala, "but indeed I have. Like I said yesterday, Vyse tonight. They will be voting you tonight, but those are mere words until decided. For what I've been hearing, they want Musashi out."

"We're majority, correct?" asked Morrigan.

Reala nodded firmly, with a smirk on his face.

"I find it odd to vote Vyse off this early, but I do not mind it at all. The more threats that leave the game, the easier it'll become. That's why I wanted Jill out of this game. Dangerous, and a threat later down the road." - Morrigan

– – – – –

The Sega tribe arrived at tribal council.

The Capcom tribe arrived at tribal council.

"For the exception of Morrigan, behind each of you is a torch. Grab a torch, dip it into the fire, and get some."

Everyone did so.

"In this game, fire represents your life. If you still have fire, you're in this game. When your fire is gone, so are you."

Everyone took a seat.

"15 days in, the Sega tribe dominated from start to finish. Now that the tribes have become two rather then three it seems that those days are over. Morrigan, how do the dynamics change for you coming over from Capcom?" asked Jeff.

"Greatly. On Capcom, I was the outsider ready to be voted off whenever. Now with the Sega tribe, there's still that sense of paranoia, so if I go home tonight, I'm not shocked." replied Morrigan.

"Wave, this does seem like the easy vote tonight; vote off the lone Capcom girl, and be back at six strong Sega. Does that seem to be the case?" asked Jeff.

Wave nodded.

"Obviously. I mean, no matter who we got from Capcom, they were going home first. No offense Morrigan, but it's just the way things are." replied Wave.

Morrigan rolled her eyes, as did Reala and Pudding.

"Reala, what is the vote like tonight for you?" asked Jeff.

Reala smirked, crossing his arms.

"...Like Wave said... voting off the Capcom player seems to be the right choice for me." replied Reala.

Morrigan raised an eyebrow, but felt better when she saw Reala wink to her.

"Pudding, have these 15 days treated you well?" asked Jeff.

"Not entirely. At least I can say I outlasted that phony Ulala by three days. Besides the awesome pool, it's just not fun for me, but I'm taking my time." replied Pudding.

"Okay, it's time to vote, Gum, you're first."

– – –

Gum's Vote: Sorry, but... later schmater. (?)

Morrigan's Vote: Such a handsome man, but not a ladies man. (Vyse)

Reala's Vote: I wanted to trust you... but unfortunately you made a few moves that made me distrust you. (Vyse)

Vyse's Vote: You're hot, don't get me wrong, but you being a succubus? Not good. (Morrigan)

Wave's Vote: Sega over Capcom any day. Sorry! (Morrigan)

– – –

"Once the votes are read, the decision is final, person voted out must leave the tribal council area immediately. I'll read the votes."

First vote, Vyse. (He shrugged, looking at Morrigan.)

…

Morrigan. One vote Vyse, one vote Morrigan.

…

…

Morrigan. Two votes Morrigan, one vote Vyse. (She put on a fake frown.)

…

…

Vyse. Tied two votes Vyse, two votes Morrigan. (Both Vyse and Wave were a little surprised.)

…

Vyse. Three votes Vyse, two votes Morrigan. (Vyse muttered a 'What?', while Reala smirked.)

…

…

Fifth person voted out of Survivor Kattlelox Island, Vyse. That's four, that's enough. You need to bring me your torch.

Vyse got up grumpily, shaking his head, "Damn it... good luck Sega, I guess?"

"Vyse, the tribe has spoken."

He snuffed out his torch.

"Time for you to go."

Vyse nodded, "It was an honor." He the left the area.

"With one of your strongest players gone, I wonder how it'll effect your performances in later challenges? All I know is that it's only the beginning of a new game for the Sega tribe. Grab your torches, and head on back. Good night."

– – – – –

Vyse's Final Words

"Maybe I went in a little too cocky..? I don't know why I was voted off! It seems like the whole tribe banded together, minus Wave, to get rid of me. I'm just like... 'what, why?!', you know? Eh, whatever happened happened. I had a good fifteen days, and I'd do it over again in a heartbeat."

VOTE

Morrigan – Vyse and Wave

Vyse – Reala, Pudding, Joe Musashi, Gum, and Morrigan

There might be small delays inbetween the episodes from here on out. I've been getting back into pokemon, playing Pokemon X normally, and Pokemon Emerald Nuzlocke. There won't be an eight month delay like there was for Forest Maze, so I promise there will be more! :D

A few things to note. 1) The TJ awards have been going very well lately. Please continue voting on them every week, only two more remain after the 'Worst Player' award! 2) There is another poll on my TJ's Survivor Wikia wiki, asking you, the fans, if you want a second chance season, or a pokemon season. Only a few more days to vote, so get them in! :D

The next episode will be a double boot! Two tribal councils, and two people going home!
