(Tyjet Tribe)

Just like with Megan, everyone went back to camp looking pleased by the vote.

"Well, that was fun." Victoria said with a smirk.

"I did it. I had voted off Belle after revealing her true nature to everyone and I feel great! I had avenged Blake!" Victoria said with a grin. "And man, was that Tribal Council fun!"

Roger, Victoria and Rinky were talking to each other.

"I still can't get over Belle's motherly personality was all just a façade." Roger said.

"I can't either." Victoria said. "Then again, if she had played the game as normally, she wouldn't had made it so far."

"I can't believe that if it wasn't for Joanna, Belle could had made the finals and possibly WON." Roger winced.

"I know… The Family Visit was a blessing for me." Victoria said shaking her head.

"Yeah but what a relief." Rinky said before brightening up. "But the point is that we not only voted her off BUT we didn't needed to use our Idol!"

"Right." Roger said taking the Idol out of his jacket and holding it. "The Hidden Immunity Idol!"

"We did it. We had survived two Tribal Councils and now the playing field is even! Or at least it should be even." Rinky smirked. "I had found the Immunity Idol so if we use it on the right person, we can vote off anyone who we want and we will be in the majority."

"So who should we vote off?" The ghost asked.

"Well, voting base on physical strength is simply out of the question." Roger mused. "How about we just go for the head of the alliance?"

"Yeah, I am not really afraid of Floyd or Kat." Rinky agreed.

"But Regina has the largest backstab list out of everyone." Victoria said. "Which means that she had made the most enemies."

"Right. Especially since three of the people she backstabbed so far are on the jury." Roger nodded.

"Well, in any case, we got another three days to decide." Rinky smirked.

"Right." Roger said. "In the meantime, let's be quiet."

The three nodded before they went back to bed.

However, they didn't notice a certain man peeking from the bushes with a mischeavious smirk.

(Day 32)

Regina, Floyd and Kat were talking to each other.

"I am glad that we decided to make the vote unanimous." Regina said sternly. "She deserved it."

Kat nodded.

"We were the swing votes last night. We chose to save Regina instead of Belle because we decided. We want to take Regina to the end." Kat said. "I mean, she had already backstabbed most of the contestants. At this rate, nobody would vote for her in the Final Tribal Council."

"So what now?" The cat asked. "It is now tied so we are definitely looking forward to a tiebreaker."

"Well, we'll just target the one who seemed weakest in tiebreakers." Regina suggested. "Also, we have to practice for ourselves."

"Right. But we have to use the fire pit as much as possible." Kat said. "The others will want to use it too."

"No, they won't." Floyd piped up.

Regina and Kat looked at him in confusion.

"Of course they will. Surely they know that this tiebreaker would decide the majority of the game." Regina said. "Why blow it?"

"Because they don't need to practice. They have the Hidden Immunity Idol." Floyd said sternly.

Regina and Kat's eyes widened at this.

"Yeah, when I saw how passive Rinky was with one of his closest friends being a schemer, I knew something was up." Floyd said raising an eyebrow. "So after Tribal Council, I spied on the others. Man, imagine my shock when I found the Hidden Immunity Idol in the possession of them!"

"I mean think about it." Floyd said. "Rinky seemed all right with believing Belle was a schemer. Then, I actually saw them holding the Hidden Immunity Idol."

Kat's eyes widened. "You mean they actually got it?"

"Yeah, they did and they will definitely use it at the next Tribal Council." Floyd said. "Don't worry though. All we have to do is make sure that we target someone other than us."

"That's right." Kat said. "They think we are completely in the dark but the truth is that it is the other way around."

"Right! If we play our cards right, we could take them completely by surprise and make them unfocused for the tiebreaker." Floyd said. "We…"

"…It's a fake." Regina said.

Floyd and Kat looked at Regina in confusion.

"What?" Floyd asked.

"It's a fake." Regina said waving it off. "They probably made it to throw us off-guard."

Floyd blinked twice. "Say what? Regina, what good would a fake Idol do now? We all have to go through a tiebreaker anyway."

"To blindside us." Regina scolded. "I mean how else they got the Idol. It must had been swept away by the ocean by now."

"Regina, I saw Roger hold it in my hand." Floyd scolded.

"So? Did you get a good look at it?" The blonde questioned.

"Um, no…" Floyd said.

"Exactly!" Regina said crossing her arms. "It HAS to be a fake Idol!"

"Regina, I saw them. It's the real deal." Floyd scolded.

"Again, we don't know that." Regina said.

"AGAIN, what's the point of playing a fake Idol in a 3-3 situation?" Floyd said raising his voice a bit.

Regina noticed this and was not amused. "Why are you getting so upset? I am just saving you from a blindside."

"WHAT blindside? Of playing a fake Idol? We have to go into a tiebreaker anyway." Floyd scolded.

"Floyd, we had been allies since Day 7. Don't you trust me?" Regina asked.

"That's MY line!" Floyd scolded. "Why won't you believe me?"

Kat looked back and forth realizing that this was not going well.

"Guys, please calm down." The white cat said.

"I will if Regina would trust her first ally!" Floyd said.

"I trust you!" Regina insisted.

"Oh yeah like you trusted me and Kat when you and Megan voted off Blake behind our backs?" Floyd asked.

"I already told you my reasons!" Regina said.

"Or lack of…" Floyd said flatly crossing his arms. "The fact that the whole thing about Blake being a liar was just a ruse makes the whole thing worse."

"Hey, Belle tricked me just like she tricked everyone!" Regina insisted. "At least I made up for my mistake and for voted her off."

"You are missing the point!" Floyd scolded. "Whether he had it or not didn't matter! You still never should have blindsided us!"

"Floyd, please. I thought we talked about this." Kat said.

"But it doesn't even end with Blake, Kat!" Floyd scolded. "Bertha, Megan, Belle. She had betrayed them all!"

"Hey, you know as well as everyone else when they were voted off." Regina said. "Heck, they got voted off UNANIMOUSLY."

"And another thing." Floyd said. "I find it funny that you consider Megan unredeemable and yet you kept her over Nick Boy and Mikey!"

"Hey, Nick Boy deserved it!" Regina scolded. "And Roger needed to learn some humility!"

"And heck he managed to make the Final 6." Floyd said.

"That's because we had bigger fish to fry at the time!" Regina said. "Besides, if he makes jury, who would vote for him?"

"Oh, I don't know…" Floyd said. "Barry, Victoria, Rinky… Far more votes than you are going to get!"

Regina and Kat's eyes widened at this.

"Floyd, calm down!" Kat said running forward.

"What do you mean by that?" Regina asked.

"Ever since the merge, Roger haven't been acting like the military-head he been from Day 1!" Floyd snapped. "You on the other hand got more and more smug with each passing elimination!"

"What are you implying?" Regina asked.

"Could it be possible that you are becoming what Roger used to be?" Floyd asked.

Regina gasped appalled before getting angry. "HOW DARE YOU! Roger the way he is because he has a stereotypical male ego. I am doing this for my alliance!"

"Your…" Floyd said in disbelief. "You just BACKSTABBED four of them!"

"And I already gave my reasons for that!" Regina scolded.

"And now we are tied three-three even though we had the majority after we voted out Larka!" Floyd yelled.

"So are you blaming ME for this?" Regina asked. "I have you know that I was the one who made this alliance!"

"And one by one, you tore it apart." Floyd snapped.

"Regina, Floyd, that is enough!" Kat shouted.

"I'll say it is!" Floyd said before walking off. "Regina, come talk to me when you clear your head down!"

"MY head!" Regina said in disbelief.

"I had it. If Regina wants to treat people that had been loyal to her from the start, then fine! She can stuff it!" Floyd said with a scowl. "I am not going to let my game go down the drain just because of that blonde egomaniac."

Regina and Kat watched as the man stormed off.

"Hey, Floyd! Wait up! Please!" Kat begged.

"Forgot it, Kat." Regina said. "It is clear that he is a schmuck. If he wants to fall for their fake Idol, who am I to let them?"

With that, she stormed off.

"Regina, please!" Kat pleaded.

The blonde didn't listen. She merely stalked wiping her eyes behind her tears.

"Oh right, fine! If Floyd doesn't trust me, then why should I trust him? I mean I made this alliance! I eliminated mighty threats and liabilities!" Regina scowled. "Every single person I voted for gone home! It just shows how good I am at taking out targets! Not Floyd!"

(Day 33)

Roger, Victoria, Rinky, Regina, Floyd and Kat were sitting the fire pit eating breakfast. However, the feeling was awkward.

"I don't know what happened but something had happened with Regina, Floyd and Kat. They haven't even talked to each other." Roger said. "It is very unnerving especially seeing that we all voted off two people back-to-back unanimously!"

Rinky decided to break the silence.

"So… What about them Packers?" The ghost said sheepishly.

"I am not familiar with sports in the present time." Regina said flatly.

"I DESPISE sports." Floyd said as just as coldly.

Everyone winced at this. Kat looked around and shook her head not believing her luck.

"It is never good to have tension between two allies but this is the worst possible time for them to do this." Kat frowned. "Regina and Floyd won't even TALK to each other."

Roger blinked twice before leaning over to Kat. "What the HECK happened to THEM?"

Kat merely sighed. "It is really an alliance-exclusive issue."

Roger blinked twice. "Okay. Fair enough."

Floyd sighed before getting up and walking off. "I am going to make sure that we have treemail."

"Whatever…" Regina huffed.

Everyone winced at this once again. Kat merely sighed as she looked down.

It didn't take Floyd to return. "Treemail's here."

"Sweet! What does it say?" Rinky asked eagerly in an attempt to get away from the negativity as soon as possible.

"It says "are you good at shuffleboard?" Floyd read.

"All right! Let's do it!" Rinky grinned.

Victoria raised an eyebrow before crouching down. "But you don't seem like you like shuffleboard."

"Lady, I'll play chess if it means getting away from Awkward Island." Rinky whispered.

"Good point."

"The best part of having less and less people in your tribe every three days is that it would be easier to win Challenges." Victoria said crossing her arms. "I know that I shouldn't underestimate anyone but right now the threat that has my 100% concern for in Challenges is Roger."

(Immunity Challenge)

The six finalists made their way on the mat where Tiny was waiting.

"Welcome, contestants to your next Immunity Challenge." Tiny said. "Take a look."

Despite the fact that there would be playing an Immunity Challenge took their by surprise, they all looked. They then saw a giant board on the ground.

"Today's Challenge is simple. Using a shuffleboard stick, you will toss a puck across this board and you will score points based on how well you place the puck to the middle. If there is a tie, we will go into a tiebreaker. Whoever gets the highest score wins Immunity." Tiny said. "Now let's draw for spots.

(Later)

After the spots had been cast, Regina walked up holding a stick.

"All right, Regina. It is up to you to set the bar." Tiny said. "You may go whenever you are ready."

Regina nodded before shooting her puck. However, the toss was quite weak as it only landed on a four.

"Okay, work. You got a four." Tiny said. "We'll see if it holds up."

"I doubt it…" Regina grumbled before walking off.

Roger readied his stick knowing it was his turn.

"Anytime, Roger."

The soldier shot his puck as far as he could. Unfortunately, it was too strong as it passed the centre by a bit.

"Ooh! Overdid it there." Tiny said. "Still, you got a six and now hold the lead."

"Good." Roger said.

Victoria took a deep breath before stepping up.

"Anytime, Victoria."

The young woman nodded before shooting her puck. Her aim was actually quite dead-on.

"Nice one, you got an eight." Tiny said. "You now hold the lead!"

"Nice!" Victoria smirked.

Kat made her way over with a deep breath.

"Anytime, Kat."

Kat shot the puck as hard as she could. However, because of her small stature, she only got it a small distance.

"Ooh, close but barely." Tiny said. "You only got a six. Victoria now holds the lead."

Kat merely sighed. "Oh, well."

Rinky gave a big smirk as he held his stick.

"Anytime, Rinky."

The ghost had saw Kat's prowess and thought of an idea of how to improve it. Swinging his puck as hard as he could, he whacked the puck.

Only for it to hit Tiny in the face knocking him down.

"Um, oops?" Rinky said.

Tiny sat up revealing that the puck was in his mouth. He promptly spat it out. "That's a foul! You lose! Good day, sir!"

Rinky walked off grumbling. "Well, sorry!"

Floyd then stepped forward.

"It is your turn, Floyd!" Tiny said. "Remember, you need to get at least a 9."

The cameraman nodded before taking a deep breath. This was his chance to prove his worth. With a push, he sent the puck down the field. Everyone looked in awe as it landed.

"And it's on a 7." Tiny said. "Close but no cigar. VICTORIA WINS IMMUNITY!"

Victoria jumped up in joy as everyone clapped for her.

(Later)

Tiny put the necklace around Victoria's neck.

"Congratulations, you had won Immunity guaranteeing a 1-in-5 chance of winning." Tiny said.

"It is so grand to win a Challenge." Victoria said.

"As for the rest of you, I have nothing for you but a date at Tribal Council." Tiny said. "You have all day to figure out who. You may head back to camp."

(Tyjet Tribe)

"Victoria had won Immunity which is good because that means the game of Hot Potato just got a little less risky." Roger said. "We could either give the Idol to me the obvious choice or Rinky because he seemed weaker in the tiebreaker. Well, trivia tiebreakers maybe…"

"So should we give the Idol to myself or Rinky?" The soldier asked.

Rinky raised an eyebrow. "Why would they target me? Not only are you the strongest person left in the game, Regina had her eyes set on you for a while."

"Don't be so naïve, Rinky." Victoria scolded. "They may target you because you are weaker than Roger in tiebreakers."

"Right. We need to make sure that we got the right target otherwise we could just waste this thing." Roger agreed.

"I dunno." Rinky said. "Correct me if I am being cocky but at the rate Regina and Floyd is being, we may not even have to use the Idol for this round."

Roger nodded. "I wonder what gotten into them."

Meanwhile, Floyd was sitting on a log still looking annoyed by what happened. Then, Kat walked over to him.

"Floyd?" Kat asked.

"Hm?" The young man said.

"We have to talk." Kat said narrowing her eyes.

"Sure, we had our disagreements but I refuse to have our alliance fall apart because of one fight." Kat said sternly. "I need to show Floyd that this is the worst possible time to hold a grudge against Regina and maybe even vice versa."

"Look, Kat. I am sorry but she deserved it." Floyd apologized.

"Even still, you completely went out-of-line." Kat scolded.

"Out-of-line? She thinks that the Idol is fake for some absurd reason!" Floyd said in disbelief. "She refuses to listen to reason OR me!"

"Then, we have to try to show reason to her." Kat scolded.

"Do you think I haven't tried to do that?" Floyd asked in disbelief. "It is like if one thing went in my ear and went out the other!"

"Come on, Floyd." Kat scolded. "We have gone too far for you two to go against each other. I thought you guys were friends."

"What kind of friend wouldn't trust about something?" The teenager said in disbelief. "It is like all of these days out here mean nothing to her."

"Now that is just overreacting." Kat said. "I am sure Regina appreciates what you had done for her!"

"Fat chance seeing that she blindsided us both." Floyd said.

Kat blinked twice before putting her hands on her hips.

"Now, Floyd. If you don't try to make up with Regina, she may get Roger's alliance to vote against you out of spite." She scolded.

"Ugh… That wouldn't surprise me one bit." Floyd said.

"But do you know WHY she would do that?" Kat asked. "Because she thinks you cannot be trusted."

"Well, that's because she is being completely irrational!" Floyd scolded.

"Come on! You know that she is like this!" Kat said. "We need to get her to behave or Roger, Victoria and Rinky will easily have the Final 3!"

Floyd merely sighed. "Well, I guess you are right."

"And besides, remember your hero's advice?" Kat asked. "If we tolerate Regina, good things will happen to us in the end."

"Right… Even if those people are one of the most annoying…" Floyd said before his eyes widened. "Wait a minute!"

"What is it?" Kat asked.

"I got an idea!" Floyd grinned.

"Mr. West had gave me this advice. To deal with whatever problem the survivor has to get them to the safe house." Floyd said crossing his arms with a smirk. "However, I realized a way to use their weakness to MY advantage."

"You want me to what?" Regina asked as Floyd and Kat stood in front of her.

"Ask Victoria and Rinky to vote him off." Floyd said simply.

"And how simple do you think THAT is going to go?" Regina asked.

"What? After you went out of your way telling that he has an enormous Alpha Male ego." Floyd challenged.

Regina looked offended by this. "Excuse me?"

"I am sorry, from what you were saying, I thought that Roger was the person nobody liked." Floyd said before shrugging. "But oh well… If what I said was true."

"No, it isn't!" Regina scolded. "Just sit back and prepare to have a slice of humble pie, Floyd! I will have an unanimous vote three times in a row."

With that, she stormed off. Kat then stepped forward.

"Hmm… Not that this doesn't seem like a good idea but are you 100% sure it would work?" Kat asked.

"It has to." Floyd said sternly.

"All right, fine! Floyd thinks I am overdoing it with Roger, let me show him wrong! I am going to Victoria and Rinky and explain why they should dump Roger." Regina said sternly. "Should be easy."

Victoria and Rinky stood in front of Regina with bored looks on their faces.

"So what I am trying to say is… Why go through the trouble of a tiebreaker?" Regina asked. "I mean we worked together to get rid of a pest and a snake so why the third time can't be a charm?"

"Because then we would be voting out one of our own allies." Rinky said flatly.

"Aw, come on. I know that he is your ally but think about it. Is Roger really that worthy to trust?" Regina asked. "The only reason that he had been so mellow with you so far is because for most of the game, he had no choice but to sit back and follow Barry's orders. Say what you wish but he will soon go back to his old ways soon enough."

"How would YOU know? Ever since the merge, you had been avoiding Roger like the plague!" Victoria countered.

"Yeah, but I was with him the longest so that means I have a good idea of what he is like." Regina said. "Look, if you let him stay for any longer, he WILL boss you around. Just think about it."

Victoria and Rinky looked at each other with unimpressed glares.

"It's official. Regina had gone off the deep end. She seriously thinks Roger is a jerk when she is the control freak." Rinky said rolling his eyes. "Seriously, have she even stopped to considering that Roger isn't acting like a jerk like he was before the merge? That girl is headed for a fall and nobody can say that she doesn't deserve it."

(Tribal Council)

The six people walked into Tribal Council where Tiny was waiting.

"We now bring in the jury." He said as the jury walked in. "Blake, Barry, Megan and Belle voted out at the last Tribal Council."

Everyone watched as the jury walked in. Belle actually had her hair done in a ponytail showing both of her eyes. She also wore a light blue jumpsuit that showed a bit of cleavage with matching boots. She also had a livid look on her face.

"Victoria, it seems that you were right about Belle all along?" Tiny asked. "How does it feel?"

"It feels great!" The dark-skinned woman grinned. "After what she did to Blake, it felt great to reveal her true form to everyone."

"News flash! You would had never have voted me off if it wasn't for Joanna!" Belle snarled.

"Someone's bitter." Blake said rolling his eyes.

"Of course I'm bitter!" Belle snarled.

"Kat, was it a good idea to vote her off?" Tiny asked.

"Yes, now that we see her true form, we didn't want to align with her." The feline frowned.

"Translation: I have a crush on Regina and would give my liver for her." Belle growled as the other jury members glared at her in disgust.

"So does Belle leaving change anything, Roger?" Tiny asked.

"Other than the battlefield is now even, no. Nothing had changed." The soldier shrugged. "It is now three-on-three."

"So Floyd, do you think that the best thing to do is stick together?" Tiny asked.

"Of course!" The young man sighed. "Though it is hard to do so."

"Regina, what does Floyd mean by that?" Tiny asked.

"Floyd and I had a fight with each other and each other's trust was challenged." The teenager said rolling her eyes. "Though I don't see why Floyd just won't listen to reason."

"You are the one being irrational!" Floyd scolded.

"Looks like it isn't all rainbows with Regina's alliance." Blake said.

"Rinky, with all this new tension, how is tonight's vote going to go?" Tiny said.

"Well, let's just say somebody's emotions will get in the way." The ghost said.

"That is NEVER a good sign." Barry said.

"All right. It is almost time to vote." Tiny said. "Victoria, do you want to give up Immunity?"

"No." Victoria said.

"All right, it is time to vote." Tiny said. "Floyd, you are up."

The cameraman nodded his head before getting up. He made his way to the voting table with a determined look. "If this fails, our whole alliance goes into smoke."

Victoria made her way over with a confident look on her face. Grabbing the pen, she wrote down a name.

Kat took a deep breath before making her way up the steps. With a nervous look, she wrote down a name and put it in the urn.

Roger marched with a determined looked on his face. He took the pen. "You have dethroned me so it is up to me to return the favour." He said holding up "Regina."

Rinky stormed over looking annoyed. He then grabbed his pen. "Be careful what you wish for, Reggie."

Regina stomped over with a furious. Wiping the pen, she wrote down a name. "This will show Floyd who is truly in charge of this alliance." She said holding up "Roger" to the camera.

With that, she stormed back as Tiny got up.

"I'll get the votes."

Everyone waited patiently for good reasons.

"I'll read them…"

"Excuse me?"

Everyone turned to see Roger getting up.

"I would like to give you something." He said taking something out of his pocket.

Everyone's eyes widened at this.

"Is that?" Barry asked in awe.

"No way." Blake said shaking his head.

"So it IS true." Kat said amazed.

Roger gave a small smirk as he walked over to Tiny and handed him the Idol.

"This IS the Hidden Immunity Idol!" Tiny said. "All votes cast against Roger is now null and void."

Regina sat with her jaw wide open. "But… But Larka threw it in the ocean. You all saw it… Didn't you?"

Roger sat down.

"First vote, Roger. Does not count."

Roger gave a relieve sigh.

"Second vote, Roger. Also does not count."

Victoria and Rinky looked at each other content.

"Third vote, Roger. Null and void."

Regina buried her face in her hands not believing what was happening.

"Fourth vote, Rinky. One vote, Rinky."

Rinky's pupils shrank at this.

"Fifth vote, Regina. One vote, Rinky. One vote, Regina."

Regina slowly raised her head to revealing that there were completely misty.

"Fifteenth person voted out of Survivor and fifth member of our jury…"

Everyone looked on.

"…Is Rinky."

"Dang…" Barry frowned.

Roger and Victoria both stood stunned by the vote. But not as much as Regina who merely sat in her place. Floyd and Kat looked content with how things worked out.

"Rinky, you need to bring me your torch."

The ghost sat in his seat blinking twice. He then sighed.

"This would so be cooler if it didn't happen to me." He said getting up. "Sarge, Vicky, I better see you in the Finals."

With that, he grabbed his torch and made his way over to Tiny placing it in front of him.

"Rinky, the tribe has spoken." Tiny said putting his snuffer over his torch extinguishing it. "You may now… Hey!"

The yellow figure smirked as he grabbed Tiny's glasses. "Got ya specs, Tex!"

Tiny growled as he watched Rinky scamper off. "Well, it seems not only was Blake having the Idol was a lie but the Idol was still around camp. It just goes to show. ANYTHING could happen in this game. Especially when this close to the Finals. You may head back to camp. I have to catch the limo before it reaches for Ponderosa."

The five people got up and gathered their torches. Regina brought up the rear with a deer-stuck-in-the-headlights face. She was sure. So sure that the Idol was fake. If it wasn't for the votes for Rinky, she would have probably gone home. And yet because of two people, she is still here.

"Man, that sucked. We decided to vote against Roger just to spite Regina for getting too comfortable with her attitude but as it turns out, that was their whole plan." Rinky said adjusting Tiny's glasses on his head. "Oh well… As much as I wanted to make it to Day 39, at least I could say that it took an Immunity Idol to get rid of me."

RESULTS

Roger: Regina, Rinky, Victoria. N/A

Rinky: Floyd, Kat.

Regina: Roger.

And Rinky is the next one to go. Woo boy, way to start. What can I say? I thought the main highlight for Rinky would be the rivalry he had with Bertha because I thought that drama-lovers well… Will love it. However, it seems that said drama got repetitive real fast and people got annoyed with it. I am sorry. I personally felt like I insulted your intelligence and I apologize for that. That's why the uploads took so long. Bertha made the jury. So I had to do a lot of revising. (In other words, cheating.) Again, I am sorry and I hope that Rinky settling the rivalry at the merge once and for all is enough for you.

NOTE: When thinking if I should cast Bertha, I KNEW that I had to put in a Pacman fan-character. I love fighting for Rinky and his mannerisms.
