(Tyjet Tribe)
The three finalists made their way back to camp.
"Tonight was AWESOME! I had actually won a tiebreaker against Victoria to save myself in the game!" Regina said with a grin. "And it was a FIRE-MAKING challenge as well which makes it even more better because the minute I had set first on the dock at the start, I was already sweating bullets."
"Oh, Regina! I am so proud of you!" Kat said congratulating her friend.
"Thank you, Kat." The blonde smiled. "You don't know how happy I am to actually win a fire-making tiebreaker."
"I must say I am impressed, Regina." Roger said. "Especially since you were clearly panicking in there."
Regina blushed before looking down. "Well, I was nervous. Save for the trivia Challenges, I had done horribly in the Challenges."
"Hey, still done better than Megan and Bertha." Roger supplied with a smirk.
The two giggled at this while Roger sighed.
"Victoria went home tonight after she lost the tiebreaker. And I must say, I am quite upset. She was the only ally I had left and now I am all alone." Roger sighed. "I know that she was trying to keep her integrity but I should had been more stubborn and forced the headdress onto her."
"Well, this is it." Kat smiled. "Only two more days left."
"And only one more Challenge." Regina mused.
"With just one more person to go." Roger concluded. "Let's go to bed."
"Yes, these next two days will be our biggest ones yet." Regina said as the three headed off to the bed.
"The game is finally reaching its final stage. There are only two more days left and I don't want to go home after coming so close." Kat frowned. "In fact, NOBODY does. It just gives you more reason to bring your A-game."
(Day 38)
Kat and Regina were sitting on a log talking to each other.
"All right. We had gotten the majority." Kat noted.
"Yeah, too bad it is near useless now." Regina sighed.
"What do you mean?" Kat asked.
"Well, we are having our Final Challenge today right?" Regina asked. "Whoever wins it gets to choose to take to the Finals."
Kat frowned at this. "And you are worried that Roger would win."
"Of course! He had won THREE Immunity Challenges!" Regina exclaimed. "And the final Immunity Challenge is almost always physical!"
"Now, now. I could understand your worry but calm down." Kat said comforted. "I mean remember Fuuka? If she cost her tribe the first Challenge badly and yet she had won the Final one against two athletic men."
"Do you really think we could beat a military-head?" Regina asked.
"We HAVE to." Kat said sternly. "Otherwise, all chances of making the Final 2 together goes straight out the window."
"Yeah…" Regina nodded. "We have to try."
"The problem with letting someone like Roger go anywhere near the Finals are that there is a big chance that he will dominate in the Challenges." Kat sighed. "If we want to together in the Final Tribal Council, we have to beat him."
Speaking of the final Challenge, Roger was lying on his back on Rinky Island thinking about it.
"Hmm… What should be my gameplan…" The soldier said. "I COULD try to get Kat or Regina to keep me if I lose but they seem have to close to betray each other now."
He then sat up looking at the ocean with a sorrowful face.
"Looks like Immunity is once again my only salvation." He mused. He then looked determined. "Now hold on! The Final Immunity Challenge is always a physical one. My progress in those types of Challenges had been FAR more greater than both of them put together."
He then looked down.
"But if it involves something like balancing, Kat could be a match for me." Roger said. "Also, Regina had won a tiebreaker signalling that she is just as capable in the Challenges as in the tiebreakers."
"Still, I had won Immunity THREE times already." He said sternly. "I won it before and I could win it again."
"My entire game resides on having the Immunity headdress on my head again. Seriously, I NEED to win it." Roger said sternly. "I had gone through too much just to go home now."
"Hey, Roger!"
The soldier turned his head to see the girls on the end of the shore.
"We got treemail!" Regina said waving a letter in her hand.
Roger brightened up before getting up and making his way over. "All right. What does it say?"
"It says get ready for the Fallen Comrades path." Regina read.
"Ah, such a refreshing part." Roger said. "What do we have to do?"
"It said to go to the Challenge area and follow a marked path to a mountain path." Regina read. "After we had made our tributes, we can have our last Immunity Challenge."
"All right so let's do it!" Kat smiled.
"The Fallen Comrades path helps you realize how you had come. I had overcome fifteen different people each with their own strengths, skills and strategies." Regina said. "I am proud to came across such obstacles are is able to make it this far."
(Fallen Comrades Path)
The three finalists made their way to the Challenge area.
"The marked path should be over there." Regina pointed out as they walked out.
"All right." Roger said. "Is there anything we need to do?"
"No, just pay our tribute as we continuing up the mountain." Regina read.
"What an interesting concept." Kat said. "As we keep going higher and higher, we notice how much we had changed."
"Yeah." Roger said. "Well, ladies. Shall we?"
The two nodded before making their way up the start of the mountain path.
They first came across their first torch. It had a picture of a grinning young man with shades and a white beanie. Regina and Kat immediately went sour.
"Roger, say what you will about keeping Megan the first time around but I felt keeping her over Nick Boy was the best idea." Regina sneered.
"I must admit that he was quite annoying." Roger shrugged.
"Quite? He was more than that!" Regina snapped. "Every time we talked, he kept checking out my body!"
"He even straight up told me that Larka and I make him want to perform bestiality." Kat grimaced. "I know that it was a compliment but to say that I wasn't flattered was an understatement."
"And his rapping is SO annoying." Roger said rolling his eyes.
"If you could even CALL that dribble rapping." Regina said as they went up the mountain. "Seriously, I haven't seen a stereotypical white boy rapper since Vanilla Ice."
"This is messed up, yo! My strategy was to make it nice with the ladies and swoon them over into getting into an alliance with me. But instead I got voted out by said girls! I don't know what went wrong. Maybe my bling isn't big enough."
The three then went to the next torch that had a picture of a smiling girl with brown spongy hair.
"Okay, don't tell me." Regina said rubbing her head. "Bunny, right?"
"Honey." Roger said. "The others told me about what happened pre-merge at the Robur camp."
"Poor girl. She seemed nice." Kat frowned.
"Yeah, they praised her." Roger said shaking his head. "Unfortunately, she was voted out in a harsh way."
"Really? What happened?" Kat asked.
"Bertha wanted to vote Rinky out and managed to convince Blake, Victoria and Honey to vote her way." Roger explained. "However, Barry refused to lose his best friend and convince the other half of the tribe to vote off the weakest of Bertha's side."
"That's why?" Regina winced. "Ouch. That was harsh."
"Yes…" Kat said as they continued up. "But it just have to show that you have to do more than just be nice…"
"I am really disappointed that I didn't last longer as I did because there was so much more that I wanted to experience but I guess that it wasn't meant to be. I just wished that I didn't got voting WITH Bertha. She is mean."
The next torch had a young man with purple shades and a hat with a big grin.
"Um, Dan's this hippy guy right?" Regina asked.
"Yes and he was doomed the second he was on the Robur tribe." Roger lamented.
"Why do you say that?" Kat asked.
"Well, I'd been told that his gameplay was based around avoiding any and all conflict and go through the game without it." Roger said shaking his head.
Regina frowned. "Oh dear… The poor sap was doomed was the start."
"Yes… He was completely unprepared for the hardships of the game." Roger said as they walked on.
"You know what? After hearing about how things happened after I left, I am actually glad I was an early boot. I know Survivor sometimes have some big conflicts but I don't think even my positive vibes could make the tension blossom into rose petals."
The others went to the torch that had a picture of a young man with a big grin and an orange visor. Everyone's face fell.
"Poor Alan." Regina frowned. "Having to go home because he was injured."
"Yeah… It always stinks to see someone's chances blow away like that." Kat said sadly.
"And even when he was in pure pain, he still wanted to keep going." Roger said before saluting. "That is a true trooper."
"Yeah…" Regina said before narrowing her eyes. "I still can't believe that witch tried to keep him."
"Yeah but at least something good came out of this." Roger said.
"And that is?" Regina said.
"It showed Barry and Rinky that Bertha needed to leave immediately after that." Roger said. The two girls nodded before they moved on.
"I am very upset that I gone out like this. I wanted to last as long as I can and I knew I could if it wasn't for my injury but I guess that it wasn't meant to be. I just hope that my tribe had been doing well without me."
Everyone walked over to a torch that had an Asian girl on it. She had dark hair with pigtails and a gentle position on her face.
"I really liked Yuri-Chan." Kat smiled.
"Yes, she was a nice girl despite extremely timid." Regina added.
"I liked Yuri-Chan too. Unfortunately, Megan had been given Immunity and I had no choice but to boot her out." Roger frowned.
"Yeah, I didn't like it either but I literally had no choice." Regina sighed.
"Have you noticed that most of the more cheery people left early?" Kat asked.
"Yeah, it sucks." Regina said as they walked on.
"Even though I was an early boot, I had no regrets with how I fared. Sure, I didn't lasted very longer but I had a lot of fun and made quite a few new friends even though they were some people that scared me."
The next picture had a dark-skinned young man with trimmed hair and a big grin.
"Ah, Mikey. The definition of a go-getter." Roger smirked.
"That is ONE way of putting it nicely." Regina said rolling her eyes.
"Hey, I enjoyed his enthusiasm." Kat said. "He really loved the Challenges, didn't he?"
"Yeah, a little too much." Regina said. "I mean he was literally basing his entire gameplan around it."
"Yeah, his motive was pretty one-note and he probably wouldn't last any much longer." Roger said before glaring at Regina. "But he would at least last longer than he did if SOMEONE didn't voted him out."
"Hey, you were getting too comfortable. You needed to be knocked off your pedestal." Regina scolded.
"So you voted off him instead of me. Oh yeah. Real smart." Roger said rolling his eyes and walking off. Regina growled before she followed with Kat shaking her head.
"What can I say? Survivor isn't all about Challenges. Sure, they are very important but they do not make a Sole Survivor. Looking back, my "strategy" was kinda stupid. But could I at least learn that lesson the hard way a little later on! I was in the zone, man!"
The next torch had a dark-skinned woman with a dread-locked ponytail with a sour expression. Everyone's faces soon turned the same.
"What can we say about Bertha?" Kat asked.
"Worst person to ever get on a season of Survivor?" Regina quizzed.
"Yeah, that is pretty much it." Kat said shaking her head.
"I only known the woman for so little and I am wishing that I never met her." Roger snarled.
"Yeah, she was mean, deluded, petty, rude, weak, and uncooperative." Regina said. "I don't see how she made merge."
"Trust me. Barry and Rinky were kicking themselves for letting her get so far." Roger said shaking his head.
"I still can't believe she hated Rinky that much to KEEP an injured player." Kat said sticking out her tongue.
"Guys, as much as I loved bashing Bertha, can we go?" Regina asked. "Even standing near her torch gives me cancer."
The other two nodded before they walked off. However, as they were leaving, Roger spat at the torch hitting the picture head-on.
"Because Rinky didn't have the privilege." Roger smirked before heading off.
"I was on a season with a bunch of sissies! So what if I tried to keep an injured player? So what if my reasons for hating Rinky were based on prejudice? He doesn't deserve to last so far! Especially over me! I DEMAND justice! I deserve to be in the Finals!"
The group walked over to a torch with a blue lioness-like creature. She had white hair and a horn.
"Ah, Larka." Roger said with a grin. "My best friend out here."
"I must admit, when I first saw her, I thought she didn't know how to feel." Regina mused. "Then, I noticed that she actually DO have emotions."
"Larka said that it was a Ronso thing to hide as much emotion as they can." Roger said.
"I see. I wonder how she decided to thaw off the ice." Kat said.
Roger merely shrugged. "I guess it just happened."
"Well, I am glad that we managed to see the real Larka before she gets voted out." Kat smiled.
"Yeah, same here." Roger said as they walked off. "I owe her a lot. If it wasn't for her, I may have never learned to lighten up."
"Larka not surprised. Larka strong and won two Challenges back to back so Larka knew that she was on borrowed time. Larka only wished Roger was okay on his own. Larka shudder at thought of Regina outlasting Roger."
The next picture on the torch was a young man with dark hair and a stoic expression. Everyone's faces fell.
"Poor Blake…" Kat frowned. "Got voted for something he didn't do."
"Yeah, I felt horrible for voting him out after hearing that Belle lied about him having the Idol." Regina said.
"Even though I mostly did it to save myself, the thought that I wrote down his name that night gives a bad taste in my mouth." Roger said shaking his head.
"I can't believe Belle got him voted out just because he accidentally made her lose the Idol." Kat said shaking her head.
"Yeah, the poor guy was at the wrong place at the wrong time." Roger said shaking his head as they walked off.
"Yeah, it sucked being voted out the way I did because I still wanted to last a bit longer for Alan's sake after he had been voted out. Still, at least I made jury so the adventure more or less continues on for me."
The finalists walked over to a picture of a black-furred bear.
"Ah, Barry." Roger smirked. "A jack-of-all-trades."
"I still can't get over how nice he was even though he was a mob boss." Kat said.
"Yeah, maybe Belle should take some lessons from him." Regina said as they all laughed.
"I owe Barry because when Larka was my only ally, he accepted us with open arms." Roger said.
"You know, I think they openly accepted you because they were desperate for allies as well." Regina said with a raised eyebrow.
"Perhaps but I am still grateful." Roger said as they walked on.
"I had a lot of fun out here. I had made a lot of friends, a couple of enemies AND I got voted out in a huge blindside. What more could a mob boss ask? I am just glad that my alliance hasn't completely broken apart since my absence."
The next torch had a blonde woman with a pink sunhat.
Kat shook her head. "Megan was just unprepared for this game."
"In more ways than one." Regina said rolling her eyes. "Even now, I don't think she had grasped the concept of this game. It's a good thing I had good reasons to keep her otherwise I would had made myself look like a real tool."
"I WANT to like her because I could tell that even though she was failing miserable, she was TRYING to be nice." Kat noted.
"…But all she came up is annoying." Regina said rolling her eyes. "I think she sometimes forgets what show she is on."
Suddenly, the two girls noticed something. Turning their head, they saw Roger coolly leaning against the side of the mountain with his head down covering his eyes and a reed in his mouth.
He then looked up. "Oh, you guys are done? Shall we move on?"
With that, he took the reed out of his mouth, dropped it and headed his way up the mountain without another word. Kat shook her head in hopelessness as Regina rolled her eyes.
"Being on Survivor is like being on another world. Oh wait, that makes sense because this IS another world. Still, I am upset that things had ever gone my way ever since I came here. Even now, I don't see how everyone wouldn't praise the earth I elegantly walk on. Is it a Survivor thing or something?"
The three went over to a picture of a white-haired woman with her right eye covered.
"I STILL can't believe that Belle was not only a schemer but also working for the bad guys." Kat said in awe.
"I know." Roger agreed. "All I heard from Barry and Rinky is how much of a nice, genuine woman she was."
"And that only that she was a sniper but she was also voted out Blake for a petty reason." Regina snarled. "Seriously, that was uncalled for."
"Do you know what is the scary part?" Kat asked getting the two's attention. "If it wasn't for the Family Visit, Belle may have not only made the Finals but also WIN."
"Ugh… What a headache-inducing idea." Regina said holding her head.
"Be grateful for that Joanna woman. If she didn't come, she would had continued to play the entire tribe for fools." Roger said as they walked on.
"I was playing the perfect game. Most of the castaways liked me. I was in the majority. And it all fell apart because of that tramp, Joanna. Well, don't worry. When this stupid game is over, I will plan my revenge for costing me the prize money like that."
The next torch had a picture of a grinning yellow ghost.
"Ah, Rinky. Even if you only knew him for a day, you would never forgot him." Roger smiled.
"ANOTHER nice way of putting it." Regina muttered.
"I must say, I am impressed that you of all people befriended him." Kat said.
"True, at first we didn't see eye-to-eye but when he and I were the only allies he had, we started to get close." Roger said. "In fact, he helped me get back at Megan."
"Wait. So the whole "tsundere and bisexual hooker" thing was HIS doing?" Kat asked.
"Yep. You know, I could see why most people would find him annoying but in reality, most people could use a little Rinky in their personality." Roger smiled.
"It's not that I don't get what you are saying but I just take a little and leave it at that." Regina said walking off.
Roger chuckled before following.
"Looking back, I had a blast. I had done a lot of stuff I never done before, made a few cool friends and sent a major blow to Bertha by outlasting by six places. Sure, it sucks that I just missed out on the money but I could say that it took an Immunity Idol to finally get rid of me. Heh. Heh."
The next picture had a smirking young man with brown hair.
"Ah, Floyd. My first ally." Regina smiled. "I must admit, when we first aligned with each other, we weren't that good as friends but he had proven time and time again that he was a great ally."
Roger raised an eyebrow. "Um, maybe it is because I never interacted with your alliance much but how was he useful?"
"Have you noticed that he was almost never around camp? That is because he was hiding in the bushes spying on everyone." Regina said.
Kat and Roger's eyes widened at this.
"So THAT'S how Bertha found out about what Belle told us!" Roger said in awe.
"Yeah, and that is probably how he found out you had the Idol." Regina said before looking down. "The real one, of course."
"There, there." Kat comforted. "At least you had made peace with him before he got voted off."
"Yeah…" Regina said before they walked on.
"What can I say? I am proud of what I done. I mean people take one good look at me and think I wouldn't make it past merge but here I am. Final Five. And the best part is with all the hidden dirt I had uncovered out here, no matter what I still win."
The three finalists had made their way over to the final torch. It had a picture of a dark-skinned woman with dark hair.
"And who can forget Victoria?" Roger asked.
"Nobody after her blow-up after Blake got voted out." Regina said.
"Hey, her best friend had been blindsided by people she was voting with." Roger scolded.
"I know but still, that was VERY out-of-character of her." Regina said.
"Well, she DID say that she was a real fire-cracker if her match got lit." Kat shrugged.
"And boy, did she ever explode." Regina groaned.
"I am just glad that she was able to reveal to everyone that Belle is not a nice person and avenge Blake." Roger smiled.
"It sucks just missing out of the Finals. Which is weird considering that I was FORCED to be here in the first place. But I am glad that I stuck around anyway. Once I got into the swing of the game, I never wanted to go home anytime soon."
The three people made their way up the mountain.
"I still can't believe that we outlasted so many people bigger than me." Kat mused.
"And was more adaptable to the environment than me." Regina added.
"And knew the social aspect of this game better." Roger concluded.
"It's just goes to show how much we had all blossomed ever since coming here." Kat said.
"Yeah, we HAVE learned quite a bit, haven't we?" Roger asked.
"Right. When we go home, we could take away these life lessons." Regina said.
"But for now, you have only one thing on your mind."
Everyone looked ahead to see Tiny with a grin.
"The Final Immunity Challenge." Tiny smirked. "Take a look."
Everyone walked over to the top to see three giant rings. However, they were all different sizes.
"Here is what you will have to do. You will stand on these rings as they slowly turn around with all four limbs on the ring at all times. If by any chance one hand or foot comes out, you are out of the Challenge." Tiny said. "Now, to make things fair, the rings are equalivent to your size and you have a minute to choose any formation you see fit to go around."
Everyone nodded before they climbed themselves onto the ring.
(Later)
It didn't take the three too long to choose their formation.
"All right… For Final Immunity…" Tiny said. "GO!"
The rings started to slowly turn at a very slow pace. The finalists hardly even noticed.
"The Challenge has officially begun." Tiny said. "Roger, do you think you are going to win this?"
"I HAVE to win this. My last ally had been voted out last night." The soldier said sternly.
"I see. Kat, how about you?" Tiny asked.
"Perhaps. Still, it would be cool if I actually won the Final Immunity Challenge." The cat mused.
"Regina?" Tiny quizzed.
"Aside from the hockey Challenge, I haven't won a single Challenge post-merge." The blonde said determined. "I want to win a Challenge for once."
"I see. It seems that all of you want to win this Challenge badly." Tiny nodded.
The host watched as the three continued to ride in their rings. With each second, the ring turns. By the time it had already reached half a hour, the three were now sideways.
"All right, it had already been thirty minutes." Tiny said. "Are you feeling the burn?"
"Ugh… Yeah. My limbs are on fire!" Regina groaned.
"Kat, what about you?" Tiny asked.
"Same here. Who knew it was this hard just to stand in a ring…" The feline groaned.
"Roger?" Tiny said.
"I feel the pain as well. However, I am a soldier. I am used to harsh training like this." The camouflage-clad man said.
"Well, we'll see how comfortable you are after another thirty minutes." Tiny smirked.
"Ugh. He is enjoying every minute of this." Regina grunted.
The host watched in anticipation as the rings continued to turn. The looks of pain on their faces were now as clear as day. To make matter worse, they were all upside-down and the blood was quickly rushing to their heads.
"Good work, everyone." Tiny grinned. "You had done passed the hour mark! How do you feel?"
"In pain. But like I said before, I faced worse Challenges than this." Roger noted.
"What about you, Regina?" Tiny asked. "Have you ever done anything like this?"
"No, I came to this island with full knowledge of how to do Challenges like…" The futuristic girl said before scowling. "OF COURSE I NEVER DONE ANYTHING LIKE THIS BEFORE! HAVEN'T THE HINTS I LEFT YOU WEREN'T ENOUGH!"
Tiny blinked twice before turning to Kat. "Um, Kat…?"
"Kinda. I mean I AM a cat so I used to hanging around." The white-furred girl shrugged. "But never anything like this.
"Well, that's because…"
CRASH!
Everyone looked down to see who had fallen.
Regina was on her side looking exhausted.
"And Regina is out of the Challenge."
"There's blood in my head." Regina whined.
Kat and Roger knew that this mean that the three-way Challenge had been turned into two. They only have to outlast each other to win the last Challenge of the season.
Fifteen minutes had passed and Tiny and Regina could see that they were suffering from the pain and fatigue.
"Hey, anyone want to give up now?" Tiny asked.
"Aw, heck no!" Roger snapped. "If I don't have Immunity, I am dead! What am I going to tell everyone on the jury that I just gave up at the last hurdle?"
"Yeah, nobody wants to give up the Final Immunity." Kat agreed.
"Karen did." Tiny said.
"That's because Karen has no appreciation for Survivor." Regina countered.
Tiny blinked twice before shrugging. "I guess that is true. Anyway, who do you think is going to win?"
"Well, I am hoping for a Kat win here but Roger may win it." Regina frowned. "He WAS being an Immunity hog for a while now."
"Maybe it is because he is the strongest person in the Final 6." Tiny reasoned.
"Ugh… Don't remind me."
The two watched as the rings continued to spin. By now, the movement had been too much for both of them. However, they didn't want to give up.
Then, they saw one person fall onto the ground.
The two looked in surprise to see who it was.
It was Roger.
"Roger is down!" Tiny said. "KAT WINS IMMUNITY!"
The white cat sighed in relief as she got down with a sigh of relief as Regina cheered her on.
(Tyjet Tribe)
"That was amazing!" Regina grinned.
"I know! It feels so good to win Final Immunity!" Kat smiled.
"I must admit, you have really surprised me back there." Roger said.
"Thank you. So did I…" Kat nodded.
"Kat had won Final Immunity which is great because after Floyd had been voted out, we had unofficially agreed to go to the Final 2 together." Regina smiled. "However, I doubt Roger would take this lying down."
Roger had decided to take Kat into the shelter to talk.
"Listen, I know that you were getting this anyway so I'll just cut to the chase." The soldier explained. "Is there a chance you could take me to the Final 2?"
Kat raised an eyebrow. "Um, why? Sorry but I already have a Final 2 deal with Regina."
"Because Regina had been in power for the majority of the game. She had only been blindsided twice and was rarely in the minority." Roger pointed out.
"Yeah but while she had been in the majority for a long time, she had made a lot of moves that made everyone mad at her." Kat pointed out. "I mean she had backstabbed Bertha, Blake, Megan and Belle. Three of which are on the jury."
"That may be true but she still managed to make it all the way to the end despite most people hating her attitude." Roger said.
"But what about you?" Kat asked. "You probably have Barry, Rinky AND Victoria's vote locked."
"Just because we were aligned doesn't mean I would get their votes automatically." Roger pointed out. "Remember Schokolade?"
"Even still, the only locked vote I think Regina could get is because Floyd…" Kat shrugged.
Roger merely sighed. "Look, please think about it. Listen, you don't always have to make the nice girl to win."
Kat nodded. "Don't worry, I know that at least."
"This is it. I had made my word. All I could do is cross my fingers and hope that Kat would take me to the end." Roger said sternly. "I don't want to go when the end is this close in my fingers."
Kat and Regina then walked down the shore talking to each other.
"So I saw you talking with Roger." Regina said.
"Yeah. Of course he isn't going to take this lying down." Kat shrugged.
"I could imagine." Regina said. "We are still cool, right? I mean we are still going to the Finals together."
"Of course. I would have never voted out Floyd if I didn't want to go with you." Kat said.
"I know. I was just checking." Regina shrugged before walking ahead.
However, Kat was thinking.
"This is without a doubt the most important decision of my entire game. Whoever gets my vote will go home leaving the other sitting next to me in the Finals." Kat said sternly. "I have to make the right choice because some people tend to look down on people who played the game like me."
(Tribal Council)
The three finalists made their way to Tribal Council where Tiny was waiting.
"Welcome, finalists. Sit down." Tiny said.
Everyone obliged.
"We now bring in the jury." Tiny said as the jury walked in. "Blake, Barry, Megan, Belle, Rinky, Floyd and Victoria voted out at the last Tribal Council."
The three watched as the jury sat down. Victoria was wearing a black cowgirl dress with a light grey cowboy hat and brown gloves.
"Kat, what does it feel like to make the Final Tribal Council?" Tiny asked.
"It feels great!" The musician beamed. "Everyone looked at me and may have pegged me for an early boot but not only did I make the Finals but I had actually won the Final Immunity Challenge which is always a chore to do!"
"She's BA…" Victoria said.
"Now, Kat, you have the most important job here. To vote off one person and bring them to you to the Final Tribal Council." Tiny said. "However, it is a very big deal and your rivals get to say one last thing before the vote. Roger, you are first."
The young man nodded. "When I first came into this game, I had made a big mistake by treating my tribe like soldiers instead of tribemates which was why I got dethroned in the first place. I tried my best to redeem myself for this even though I had been in the minority since the merge while Regina had the most control in the game. Vote off me and you may keep the dominant player."
"All right, Regina." Tiny said. "It is your turn.
The blonde merely sighed. "Aside from the fact that we unofficially decided to go to the Final 2, I honestly don't see the logic in Roger's speech. Mainly because even though I was in power more times than him, he is the better player. I mean, yes, he had a very bad start. Yes, he made a lot of people mad early on but he improved over time. Not only that he was more cautious of his actions, he learned how to befriend people who he would never even give the time of day before coming here. I honestly rarely saw him talk like a drill sergeant ever since Mikey had been voted out. Though I never really actually seen him because I kept avoiding him like the plague. He… He deserves the win."
Everyone looked stunned by Regina's speech.
"Well, there you go, Kat." Tiny said. "Any luck?"
"Yes, in fact. I know exactly what to do." The white cat nodded.
"All right. It is time to vote." Tiny said.
Kat nodded before making her way over to the voting table and bounding up the steps. She then grabbed the pen.
"I really wish I could say that this choice was hard." She said before putting the vote in the urn and running back.
"I'll get the votes." Tiny said getting up.
Everyone waited anxiously for the sole vote knowing that this was it. Tiny then made his way back.
"I'll read it out. Sixteenth person voted out of Survivor and final member of our jury…"
Everyone looked on in amusement.
"…Is Roger."
"Dang it!" Rinky cursed as a few people looked upset.
Regina sighed in relief as Roger merely sighed.
"Roger, you need to bring me your torch." Tiny said.
The soldier nodded before getting up and grabbing his torch. "Congratulations, girls. Best of luck at the Final Tribal Council."
With that, he walked over to Tiny and put his torch in front of him.
"Roger, the tribe has spoken." Tiny said before putting his snuffer over the torch extinguishing it. "You may now go."
"It was fantastic." He said walking off.
Tiny watched him leave before turning to the others. "And that was the final vote-off. There is nobody left in the game but you two. You two had both came across a lot of obstacles but now your power in this game had been shifted to the jury."
Everyone either smiled or smirked at this. Belle on the other hand looked unhappy.
"Eight people who you had a hand in voting out. You have all day together to think about what your jury speech and how to answer questions. As of now, you may head back to camp."
The two girls grabbed their torches and made their way back looking pleased. Not only that they get to go the Final Tribal Council together but this series will have its first female winner. However, both girls want to be Sole Survivor. The time for alliances are over.
"What can I say? The minute I heard Regina's speech about me, I knew that I was a goner. Then again, I WAS one either way." Roger said before chuckling. "Oh well… To say that I never had an adventure like this is an understatement. And I think I know who to work for but I also need to make sure that she earns the million dollars."
RESULTS
Roger: Kat.
So Roger is the final member of the jury. I was trying to make him the ultimate winner distraction because he was so similar to Ace and Stinky. He had a strong friendship with a strong feline just like with Ace and Mark and he put his foot in his mouth early on but soon went on a redemption arc like Stinky. Of course, despite a deliberate distraction, I still loved writing for him from start to finish.
NOTE: Final character from my scrappy TDI story, promise! Roger had the same story as he did in back then only he was a teenager of course AND he had a HUGE rivalry with Duncan.
