A/N: After receiving more reviews on this story in one day, then my other stories have gotten in a month, I've officially decided to close my other stories for a while. I will be working solely on this for the remainder of this story. After that I may launch a sequel, or I may have had another idea for a story.
Episode 1: You're looking at the New Survivor
A middle-aged man wearing a red swim cap and an announcer's outfit is shown walking onto a stage. "Welcome. My name is Blader DJ, and I am your host. Over the next 39 days, you will be shown footage of sixteen bladers with limited supplies and rations, battle it out to be the last one standing, and win a cool million." A slideshow of sixteen faces is shown on a screen behind him. "Ladies and Gentleman, I now present, Survivor! Beyblade Style!
On an island in the middle of nowhere.
A boat is shown carrying sixteen bladers. The boat lands on the island, and the bladers get off. Blader DJ is waiting for them on shore. "Welcome contestants. How are you feeling?
"Feeling great DJ." Gingka announced.
Mei-Mei Confession: Oh my gosh, Oh my gosh, Oh my gosh! I'm actually on Survivor! I'm so excited.
"Now contestants, please stand on the mat your team is related to." There was a red and a blue mat in front of them. Gingka, Argo, Yu, Julian, Mei-mei, Kyouya, Nile, and Madoka stepped onto the blue mat. Tsubasa, Ryuga, Kenta, Hikaru, Masamune, Dashan, Chao, and Sophie stepped onto the red one. "Now, over the next 39 days, you will compete against one another and try to be the last one standing. Every three days, we will have a Tribal Council to determine who will go home. If you are eliminated, you will be sent to Redemption Island." The contestants looked surprised at the inclusion of a new element into the game. "If you are sent to Redemption Island, you will stay there. If there are two people on the Island, they will compete in a challenge to see who goes home for good, and who stays on Redemption Island. At a predetermined point in the game, that person will have a chance to come back into the game. Understand?" Most bladers nodded. "Okay then." Blader DJ pulled out 6 sacks of rice and tossed three to each team. "This is your food. Use it wisely. Now Blue Team, go to the East side of the island. Red Team goes to the West beach. I'll see you tomorrow." With that, both teams headed off to their respective side of the island.
Blue Team Camp
Argo took control the second they got into camp. "Kyouya, Nile, go find some water. Madoka, Mei-mei, and Yu, go collect wood for the shelter. Julian, you look smart enough to figure out a shelter, get some blueprints going or whatever. Gingka, you're helping me with the fire."
"Yes your majesty." Kyouya growled. But he went off with Nile to find water.
"Kyouya, we need to stick together. If we want a chance at this thing, we need to vote the weaklings off first."
"So, you're asking me to be in an alliance." Kyouya said. "It's just day one. Don't you think it's a little too soon to be doing that?"
"I have my whole game planned out Kyouya. I'm taking you to the merge." Nile said. Kyouya shrugged and continued looking for wood.
Back in the woods… "Guys, do you want to team up?" Madoka asked.
Mei-mei had a similar reaction to Kyouya. "Don't you think it's a little early for that?"
"Yeah, Madoka. It's too early."
Madoka was annoyed. "So, you just don't think I'm trustworthy do you. I'm just trying to protect all three of us. Like it or not, we're the weaklings in this tribe. If we can't vote someone else off, we'll be the first to go to Redemption Island, even go home. I just want to stay in the game."
Mei-mei and Yu thought it over. "I'll go with you Madoka." Yu said. Mei-mei agreed, and they continued to gather water and talk strategy.
In the camp, Gingka, Argo, and Julian were talking. "Gingka, Julian, we three are the top trumps in this tribe. We have to stick together on this." Gingka and Julian thought it over.
"Why should we trust you Argo? You played dirty in the BWC. What if we think you're playing dirty now?"
Argo cursed his stupidity. He had played dirty in the Championship, even helped Dr. Ziggurat with his plan. "A promise on my family's lives that I will not vote for you in the next Tribal Council." This surprised Gingka and Julian; they knew that he wouldn't bet on his family's lives if he didn't mean business. The two stronger bladers just continued with their work, leaving Argo on edge.
That Evening…
That evening, the Blue Tribe looked at their hard work. They had a decent shelter up. They had a strong fire going. They had plenty of water. They were doing fine. "Good work guys." Argo said. "Dinner's on me." Everyone cheered at that.
Gingka Confession: I think that Argo has turned it around. He's strong enough to keep himself going in the competition, but soft enough to know when to stop being bossy. He either goes first or I could take him to the finals. I'll play it by ear.
At the Red Tribe's Camp, earlier that morning…
"Alright! We're on Survivor and we're going to win! Number one baby!" Masamune screamed. "Dude, calm down. You're way too wound up. Take a chill pill man." Chao said.
"He's right Masamune. You're not going to win by screaming at the sky. Keep a cool head." Tsubasa said, calm as ever. Masamune calmed down after that. Dashan and Tsubasa stepped up to help lead the clan. "Alright. Ryuga, Kenta, could you go find water? Thanks. Chao Xin, could you help Masamune and Hikaru with finding wood?" Tsubasa asked all of these questions at once, an unusual trait for him, and he got everyone working. Except Sophie.
"Sophie, please, we need a fire." Dashan pleaded. But Sophie just walked into the trees and sat down.
Sophie Confession: I don't trust those two. Leading everyone so nicely, never ordering anyone around? They've got something going on."
Back in the camp, Tsubasa and Dashan were talking. "So alliance? Us two?" Dashan asked. Tsubasa nodded his head. "Then we'll need more people. I can probably get Chao, can you get Masamune?" Tsubasa nodded once again.
Dashan Confession: Tsubasa is a good competitor. It's a good thing I have him on my side.
Deep in the woods, Ryuga and Kenta were talking strategy. "Ryuga, we need to team up, like in a secret alliance. No one will suspect us two in an alliance." Ryuga muttered something and then nodded. Kenta seemed happy with that, so they talked about whom they wanted gone first. "If we lose the challenge, I think Hikaru should go home." Ryuga said. Kenta thought about it for a minute, and then agreed.
"You're right Ryuga; she's the weakest one here.
And back in the other part of the woods, "Hikaru, what do you think about it so far? How do you think we will do?" Masamune asked.
"We?"
"Yeah, like in the tribe 'we'."
"Oh, well, I think this tribe sucks." Hikaru said. Masamune stopped talking and looked at Chao Xin. They nodded, as if in secret agreement, and continued with their job.
That night…
The Red Tribe stood in their spots, looking at their pathetic excuse for a camp. Tsubasa and Dashan together couldn't figure out how to make fire, so their tribe was without fire tonight. Not much water was found, and the few dry wood that was found was just sitting in a pile on the Northeast side of camp. The Red tribe just laid down on the ground and tried to go to sleep.
Blue Team Camp- Day 2
"Immunity Challenge time guys! Time to get up!" Argo shouted. Most people got up fairly quickly, but some, specifically Gingka, didn't want to wake up. Argo walked over and shouted in Gingka's ear, "WAKE UP!" That got him up, but he didn't talk on the way to the challenge.
Immunity/Reward Challenge
"Welcome contestants. Sorry to wake you up so early, but we do have a time limit. So, today, you'll battle it out for Immunity. Today's challenge is a relay race. There are three legs, a dive, a run and a lift. The Diver for each team will dive down to grab three keys scattered across the riverbed. That person will then hand off the keys to the Runner, who has a series of hurdles and poles to go under. When he reaches the end, he will unlock three large crates, and will leave the team's fate to the Lifter, who will have to lift the three crates onto a scale which will raise a fire to burn a rope to release your team's flag. Make sense?" The contestant nodded their heads in understanding. "Now, draw names to decide who will dive, run and lift."
The Blue Team drew names and ended with Yu as their diver, Madoka as their Runner, and Argo as their lifter. The Red Team drew names and ended with Kenta as their diver, Sophie as their runner, and Ryuga as their lifter.
"Alright! Survivors ready… Go!" Kenta and Yu both dove down into the water. Kenta took a small lead as he found the first key quickly and swam back up. He put it on the dock and dove back down for another. Yu was having trouble finding a key, and had to head back up to take a breath. Kenta found the second key, and looked over at Yu, who was still having trouble with his first. Kenta swam back up, tossed the key on the dock and hurriedly swam back down. Yu had finally found his first key, and swam to put it on the dock. Kenta found the last key, swam up and put it on the dock. Sophie grabbed all three keys and started the long run to the crates.
Yu finally dove back down again and luckily found both keys in one dive. He tossed them up and Madoka took off. Sophie had a huge lead on Madoka, as she was the faster one, but she kept hitting things. Madoka, while slow and steady, hadn't hit a thing yet. Madoka was about ¾ of the way through the course when Sophie reached the crates. She hurriedly unlocked them and left their fate to Ryuga. Madoka reached the crates a few seconds later, and unlocked then, prompted by Argo's "Come on Madoka!" She finished unlocking them and Argo took the first crate and ran over to the scale. Ryuga had just dropped his on, and put his hands on his knees to rest. Argo finished his first crate and went back for his second. The two lifters were now about even. They put their boxes on the scale and went back to get their last crate. The two bladers were neck and neck until one of them tripped. That person fell flat on their face and the other person hoisted his box on the scale in victory.
"BLUE TEAM WINS IMMUNITY AND A REWARD!" The Blue Team jumped for joy as Blader DJ handed Argo the Immunity Idol. The Red Tribe was shocked at the loss.
Masamune Confession: It's Sophie's fault we didn't' win. She blew our lead by running into so many obstacles on the run.
Ryuga Confession: I tried my hardest, and I hope my tribemates don't vote me off for losing it.
"Blue Team, you have won immunity for the next three days, and a reward. The reward was a tarp, blankets, pillows, and fishing gear. The Blue Tribe can head back to camp. Red Tribe, you have a date with destiny back at Tribal Council. See you tomorrow." The Red Tribe began the long trek back to camp.
Red Tribe Camp- Day 3
"We need to vote Sophie off, Chao." Masamune explained. "She lost the Challenge yesterday. Ryuga tried his hardest, but Sophie kept running into things. She needs to go."
"Agreed" Chao said.
In the back of the camp, "Dashan, we still going with Hikaru as our vote?"
"Yeah. She doesn't deserve to be here. And she hates Ryuga. He's a strong player, and we need him."
"Okay, I can get Kenta to vote with us, and probably Sophie too. I'll go find them." Tsubasa said, before running off to find the two. They were by the river, talking. "Guys." Tsubasa said, causing the two to jump.
"Tsubasa! When did you get here?"
"Never mind that. Who are you two voting for tonight?
"Why would we tell you?" Sophie spat.
"Because I want you to vote for Hikaru. Dashan and I are voting for her, and with you two, we could send her to Redemption Island. You two in?"
Kenta and Sophie talked it over, and then they spoke. "Deal, if you give us a spot in the merge team.
"Deal."
Back in the Blue's Camp…
"We'll make the wood in a wall around this area right here, then we can find some sap to stick the tarp to the walls. Then we can put the blankets under the tarp and we can sleep there. Sound fine Argo?" Julian explained.
"Sounds good to me Blondie. Alright people, you heard the man, let's get to it!
And within the hour, they had found enough sap to stick everything down, and they had a nice shelter made. They made their way into the shelter and everyone claimed a spot. They then started talking among themselves.
"So who do you think is going tonight?" asked Nile.
"I don't know, it could be anyone, but my bet is on Ryuga. He really messed up during the challenge." Gingka said.
"But so did Sophie. She could be gone too." Madoka said.
"I hope Ryuga doesn't go. That would be stinky." Yu proclaimed, making everyone laugh a bit. "It's not funny!"
"Well, if Ryuga is so important, than Hikaru could go too. She hates that boy." Everyone agreed with that statement. The night ended on that note, and they all drifted off to sleep.
Tribal Council
The Red Tribe walked into the shrine. There were torches behind the players and a huge fire in front of Blader DJ. The host himself held a fire snuffer. "Welcome to Tribal Council players. Tsubasa, how is everything going?
"Well, it would've helped if we'd have won the Challenge, but we can't do anything about that. The Camera focused in on Sophie, then Ryuga.
"Chao, is the tribe solid right now?"
"Yes. We have a solid five in the middle, and three outsiders, one of which is going home tonight."
"Confident. Last question. Sophie would you be surprised if you went to Redemption island tonight?"
"Sort-of. I'm not the best target, but I'm not the least targeted one either, so yeah."
"Okay, on that note, let's begin voting.
Tsubasa walked up and voted.
Ryuga walked up and voted.
Kenta walked up, thought for a minute, then voted.
Hikaru walked up and held up a slip of paper that had Ryuga's name on it. "I hate you Ryuga." Ryuga shrugged it off.
Masamune walked up and voted.
Dashan walked up and voted.
Chao walked up and voted.
Sophie walked up, wrote a name and held it in the air for all to see. It said "Hikaru". "Sorry girl, but you've got to go.
Blader DJ then walked up and took the slips. "I will now tally the votes." He said.
First vote…
Hikaru.
Second vote…
Hikaru
Third vote…
Hikaru.
Hikaru began to get nervous.
Fourth vote…
Ryuga.
Ryuga looked surprised for a second, then realized it was Hikaru and shook it off.
Fifth vote…
Sophie.
Sixth vote…
Sophie
Seventh vote…
Sophie
Final vote…
Both Sophie and Hikaru looked really nervous.
First person on Redemption Island…
Ryuga smiled knowing he was safe.
Hikaru.
Hikaru looked sad as she took her torch and handed it to Blader DJ, who promptly snuffed it.
"Hikaru, you will now go to Redemption Island, where you will wait for your opponent will arrive. Goodbye Hikaru. "Hikaru looked ashamed as she walked down the Walk of Shame, and onto the boat of loserdom.
"Remaining contestants, head back to camp.
Sophie Confession: I'm just glad it wasn't me. I enjoy Survivor and I hope that I can get far.
Next time, on Survivor: Beyblade Style!
Tempers flare on the red side…
"What is wrong with you!"? said.
And Blue dominates again…
Blue Team is in the lead with a few seconds left…" Blader DJ said.
And a second person is sent to Redemption Island…
Second person on Redemption Island… is…" Blader DJ announced.
Tune in next time to find out who's left! On Survivor: Beyblade Style!
