The 7 remaining Burning Birds campers all sat at the bonfire ceremony on stumps. Chris just shook his head slowly at them, "Burning Birds, that was the WORST Lion King play I have ever seen. In fact, Dingo Pictures' Son Of The Lion King was a masterpiece compared to your so-called play. The costumes were a joke and the dialogue and acting were a mess. The only saving grace was Theo's performance as Scar. Burning Birds, you know the drill. 7 of you sit there but I only have 6 marshmallows on my plate. The camper who does not get a marshmallow must immediately walk the Launchpad of Shame and board the Rocket of Losers and you can't ever come back. Ever. With that being said, the first camper getting a marshmallow is...Theo. Congrats on your Scar performance."

The knight jogged up and skewed a marshmallow on his joust, "Thou is still in thy game!"

"Luna"

The witch got up and grabbed her marshmallow.

"Philip"

Philip breathed a sigh of relief, "Good, I'm not in the bottom this time."

"Olga"

The cavegirl got up and shared her marshmallow with Eep Eep.

"Adam"

The redneck inventor smiled as he claimed his marshmallow.

Only one marshmallow stood on the plate. Yumi, the clown looked nervous while Janessa, the beatnik just smugly smirked at it. Chris took a deep breath, "Campers, this is the final marshmallow of the night and this marshmallow goes to...

"Janessa"

The beatnik smirked as she received the final marshmallow and turned to the shocked clown girl, "See what happens when you're a mainstream clown, yo? Ya take the train to dragsville, dawg."

Yumi sighed and hung her head, slowly walking down the Launchpad of Shame. She turned around to face the other contestants, opened her jacket and a bunch of fireworks shot out of her pockets and into the sky, creating words that spelled out "JANESSA SUCKS."

Philip, Luna, Olga, Adam and Theo all looked impressed by the fireworks display while Janessa sat there with an angry scowl. Yumi slowly waved goodbye and walked into the rocket, the door closing behind her. Chef lit the fuse and the rocket blasted off in the direction of the Playa.

THEO (CC): I hath a feeling we maketh a terrible mistake voting off Yumi.

OLGA (CC): What happen? Olga sure Janessa go home, why she still here?

JANESSA (CC): I just be too cool to be voted off third, daddy-o. Only sheep get voted off before the merge. Besides, Yumi is a huge threat with those pockets of hers.

The male Burning Birds instantly knew of the mistake they made voting Yumi off after the fireworks display the clown treated them to. Janessa simply had a smug look on her face, as if mocking them for voting the wrong camper off. Adam just glared at Janessa, "How...how could ya frame her like that? Yumi was one of our strongest players!"

Janessa smirked, "Because clowns are squares. No way I'm gettin kicked off before a clown."

Philip sighed and shook his head, "At least she kind of made an effort unlike you!"

Janessa just laughed, "I'm too cool for effort, yo. I sit back and let the herd mentality work it out."

Luna just shook her head, "I ought to put a curse on that annoying hipster face of yours. You'll grow warts and look like a swamp monster!"

Janessa smirked, "I'd like to see ya try, you walking cliche. Anyway, I'm off to get some sleep. I hope our next challenge involves a coffee shop."

LUNA (CC): I'll put a curse on that bratty beatnik and give her eternal body odor!

Later that night, Adam knocked on the door of the male Frosty Ferrets cabin and Clark answered, "Yes?"

Adam sighed and shook his head, "Had a rough day, got mauled by a meerkat an our team lost. Got enough fabric to make a fox tail? I think I wanna try this whole spirit animal thing."

Clark shook his head, "Sorry, but I used the last of it for the costumes." The furry invited Adam inside and the inventor cringed a little as Fred shouted loud "I don't know but I've been told" cadences in his sleep. Clark reached under a pillow and pulled out a book, "This is a book that tells you all about spirit guides and totem animals. Are you ready to educate yourself on finding your inner beast?"

Adam rubbed his chin, "Ah'll think about it. Guess it wouldn't hurt to borrow it. Thanks, Clark."

Clark smiled, "You don't have to do this if you don't want to..."

Adam nodded, "Ah know, I'm just curious about it, that's all."

Clark smiled, "Well, whatever floats your boat. Just be sure to give it back next time the Burning Birds have a bonfire ceremony. My raccoon sense tells me Philip is a sneaky one. You never know when he may backstab you."

Adam chuckled a bit, "Ah'll keep that in mind but as long as I pay my rent to him, he should be happy. Thanks, Clark. Good night."

Clark smiled back as Adam exited the freezing cold cabin, "Good night to you too, Adam."

CLARK (CC): Pay his rent? What exactly is he talking about? Is Philip blackmailing him? Even if he is, there's nothing I can do about it since we aren't on the same team. Also, is it just me or is Adam's spirit animal really a skunk and not a fox? Oh well, I wish him the best of luck. Tókhi wániphika ní!

Eliminated so far: Ollie, Brittany, Yumi

NOTE: Bit of a shocker to see Yumi blasting off so soon. However, the thing is I mainly created her for silent slapstick antics. As you can see from the first chapter, I intended for her to speak more but I decided to take the whole Charlie Chaplin mime path. Yumi was a strong competitor with that coat of hers but in the end, Janessa and her dirty hipsterness screwed the clown girl over. But don't worry, you'll soon be seeing Yumi along with Ollie in the aftermath hosted by Geoff and Bridgette. Brittany's not allowed on the aftermath because of the whole baby thing.
