Previously on, Survivor,
The alliance of Etna, Blaze, and Freddi plotted for the merge, which was coming up at any point.
At Rose, Cynder told Midna about Kazooie threatening her about the idol. Midna decided to make a plan to eliminate Kazooie, and add Cynder to her alliance.
On Day 20, the two tribes merged into the light yellow Flower tribe, with 5 Roses against 5 Violets, or so it was thought.
Midna told Pipsy about the plan to potentially blindside Kazooie, and told Pipsy to keep her mouth shut to Kazooie. Meanwhile, Lady gave some valuable information to her old alliance about Rose targeting Kazooie.
Bombette and Eevee got together again, and Bombette told her that she wants to jump ship to Violet and eliminate the Roses. Eevee got very worried and told Midna about it. Midna was in a twist between either sending Bombette or Kazooie home.
But at the immunity challenge, Bombette won, saving herself from the vote.
Before tribal council, Kazooie targeted Cynder, and remove her and idol from the game. With the idol in mind, Midna told Cynder to use it to save herself. If Cynder didn't use it, she could very well be blindsided by mistake.
Cynder hesitated about using it, but in the end she did. All 9 other tribemates voted for her, and Cynder's sole vote; Kazooie, was sent home. 9 are left, who'll be voted out tonight?
Final 9: Blaze, Bombette, Cynder, Eevee, Etna, Freddi, Lady, Midna, and Pipsy

Flower Day 22
Cynder was feeling worried after the vote.
"After seeing my name written down 9 times, it was a scary feeling, like, if I didn't play the idol, I wouldn't be here right now." - Cynder
Midna was smiling after her plan succeeded.
"With Kazooie gone, I am free to do as I please. Myself, Eevee, and Pipsy will be the final 3. Question now is, who to trust between Lady and Cynder." - Midna
Lady and Cynder were now talking in the forest.
"Cynder, you listening?" asked Lady, quietly.
Cynder nodded.
"Listen, for Midna to betray Kazooie like that really scares me. I mean, yeah I helped her, but what if she were to do it to us?" worried Lady.
Cynder nodded, "I was thinking that too."
"Sometimes, I feel too concerned about alliances and relationships. Me and my husband had gone through a small phase of betrayal, but it's over now. In this game, I kind of feel the same here." - Lady
"If it comes down to it," warned Lady, "We may have to vote her out, and rejoin Violet."
Cynder sighed, "But I don't like the people on Violet, other then you."
Lady smiled, "Well, we might have to work with them, if one of us wants to win."
"I agree with Lady, something has to be done to get myself farther. Because at this point, I do not think there is a way for me to win right now." - Cynder

Flower Day 22
Etna and Bombette were talking.
"So, whats the plan?" wondered Bombette.
Etna smirked, "Cynder, Midna, Pipsy, Eevee; in that order, I hope."
"I'm glad that Bombette has decided to jump ship to Violet. We needed someone to help, since Cynder is most likely betraying us." - Etna
"Now, you might have to go fifth," warned Etna, "But I'm sure your fine with it."
But Bombette wasn't.
"Etna sounded really cocky when she said that I would be fifth no matter what. But what choice do I have? Go with Rose? Bleh, they never opened up a spot for me. Heck, Eevee is the only one who talks to me." - Bombette
"I guess so." muttered Bombette.
Etna nodded.
"With Bombette with the Violets, myself, Lady, Blaze, and Freddi will be the Final 4. We just hope that Bombette isn't an agent sent to get ourselves cocky already." - Etna
Down by the beach, Freddi and Eevee were swimming in the ocean.
"Ahh," sighed Freddi happily, "The waters seem so calm today."
Eevee giggled, "Yeah, they do, huh?"
"I like Freddi, she's very smart, and she also is a fantastic swimmer!" - Eevee
"I really love swimming," smiled Freddi, "It's what I do for a living; being part-fish."
Eevee smiled cutely, "Boy, I wish I could be a fish."
"It'd be a wonderful experience for you Eevee." smiled Freddi.
"It's fun getting to know each Rose member, even though it'll be very sad to see them leave. At least Eevee is at the bottom of our pecking order." - Freddi
– – – – –
"Come on in girls!"
The Flower tribe entered the challenge area.
"Ready for today's reward challenge?"
Everyone nodded.
"For todays challenge, we will have 4 rounds. 3 will compete in each round. Your goal in each round is to shoot as much targets as you can within the time limit. You will be using slingshots as your weapon. The winner of each round will partake in the final round. Winner of that round wins reward."
"You will leave here, and travel to a nice beach. You will be greeted with a large breakfast. Pancakes, eggs, bacon, sausage, waffles, the works. Let's get started."
Round 1: Lady, Bombette, Freddi
Round 2: Pipsy, Cynder, Etna

Freddi hit 60 targets.
Pipsy hit 48 targets.
Eevee hit 55 targets.
"FREDDI WINS REWARD!"
Everyone cheered for Freddi.
"Good job shooting Freddi, you must have had a early experience with a slingshot, huh?"
"Yeah, my boyfriend taught me how to use one during a journey." smiled Freddi.
"Now, you have to pick someone to go with you. Who'll it be?"
"Blaze!"
"Blaze, your joining Freddi for breakfast. Before you go, who's going to exile?"
After some thought...
"I'll pick Lady!"
"Lady, your heading to exile. Have fun!"
Lady smiled as she left.
"As for the other 7, you have nothing to eat but rice. See you later."

Reward Day 23
Freddi and Blaze were walking off to the special beach area for breakfast.
"Oh my god," smiled Freddi, "This is so exciting!"
"I haven't eaten a real breakfast in so long! It was nice to eat one with my friend, Blaze." - Freddi
Blaze nodded, "I know, right!"
They got to the designated area, and they began to dig into the buffet.
"I grabbed some bacon, eggs, and a few waffles. Freddi, meanwhile, picked out bacon, pancakes, and french toast. This was a very yummy breakfast." - Blaze
As they ate, they also talked.
"So whats up?" asked Blaze.
"Did Etna tell you the pecking order, yet?" asked Freddi.
Blaze shook her head.
"It's Cynder, Midna, Pipsy, and then Eevee for last." said Freddi.
"We kind of have to keep an eye on Pipsy and Eevee, though," said Blaze, "They did well in this challenge."
"Well, in physical terms, Etna meant." noted Freddi.
"Cynder, I believe, cannot be trusted. I mean, she wasn't on the main alliance from Violet to begin with, and now with Bombette on the Violet side, our chances of winning have improved." - Blaze
– – – – –
Exile Island Day 23
Lady arrived on Exile Island, and retrieved her clue to the hidden idol.
"I have the clue, but I'm not gonna use it all that much. The idol wouldn't be good in my hands. Even the best player ever; Will, failed using idols." - Lady
Lady just relaxed in the hut, until the immunity challenge started.
– – – – –
Flower Day 23
Etna and Cynder are talking.
"Can you trust me to have your back?" asked Cynder.
Etna shook her head, "You weren't in the alliance to begin with, so I can't trust you like I can Blaze, Lady, and Freddi."
"It's going to be hard to gain Etna's trust. I need to gain it now, and then later I can jump back in case Midna's plan fails." - Cynder
"But you have to look at the future," noted Cynder, "I'm the least likely of the Violets to receive a lot of votes."
Etna nodded, "That's true."
"Cynder has a point. Perhaps I should give her a chance before we make a mistake." - Etna
"You know what," noted Etna, "You just gotta prove your trustworthiness to me, or else I'm not helping you out."
Cynder nodded, smiling.
Meanwhile, Midna, Eevee, and Pipsy were talking.
"I think Bombette needs to go home." said Eevee sadly.
Pipsy nodded, "I agree, I can't trust her. She's most likely gonna go over to Violet!"
Midna shrugged, "So? We got Cynder. She'll flop to us!"
"Not sure why Pipsy and Eevee are so afraid of Bombette jumping ship, I mean, it's not like it's over for us; we still have Cynder." - Midna
"Yeah I know Midna," sighed Eevee, "But we gotta do what's best for us."
Midna nodded, "Yeah, but Bombette isn't a threat to us. Etna and Blaze are the largest threats on Violet."
Pipsy and Eevee both nodded.
"We'll see what happens at the challenge." noted Pipsy.
"I would like to vote out the Violets now, but I really can't trust Bombette. She needs to go home soon." - Pipsy
– – – – –
"Come on in girls!"
The Flower tribe entered the challenge area.
"Ready for today's immunity challenge?"
Everyone nodded.
"Let's bring in Freddi and Blaze, returning from their reward. And Lady, returning from Exile Island."
The 3 girls reentered the area, and rejoined the others.
"I'll take back immunity from Bombette."
Bombette did so.
"For todays challenge, you will climb up on a pole, and hang on for as long as you can. You may have seen this challenge in previous seasons, but this time the poles are smeered with oil, making it more difficult to hang on. Last person standing wins immunity."
Everyone climbed up on the ladders, and grabbed the pole.
'Challenge has begun..."
– – 30 minutes in – –
The oil was so oily that several contestants had a lot of difficulty hanging on.
After a half-hour, 4 girls dropped out.
"Blaze, Midna, Etna, and Lady are all out of the challenge. We're down to 5."
– – 1 hour in – –
Bombette was struggling badly. She wanted to stay on, but she couldn't do it.
She fell off.
"Bombette is now out of the challenge."
– – 1 hour, 30 minutes in – –
Pipsy, Eevee, Cynder, and Freddi were remaining.
Pipsy seemed very comfortable, as did Cynder.
But then, a fly buzzed around Cynder, and made her lose her concentration.
"Cynder is now out of the challenge."
– – 2 hours in – –
Eevee was struggling immensely, but continued to try.
Freddi and Pipsy were also slightly struggling now.
Only one fell off...
…
…
…
"Freddi is out of the challenge! It is down to Eevee and Pipsy!"
– – 2 hours, 30 minutes in – –
It was between Eevee and Pipsy, two of the youngest girls out there.
Both were struggling, and were lucky to still be up there.
Soon, only one fell off...
…
…
…
…
…
"Eevee is out! PIPSY WINS IMMUNITY!"
Everyone cheered for Pipsy.
"Good job Pipsy! You now are safe from the vote. It comes down to one of the other 8. One of you is saying goodbye tonight. See you tomorrow night."
– – – – –
Flower Day 24
Bombette, Etna, Freddi, Lady, and Blaze were all by the beach.
"Whats the plan for tonight?" asked Blaze.
Etna shrugged, "It's between Cynder, Midna, and Eevee tonight."
"Quite honestly I really don't care which one goes home, as long as they do go home." - Etna
"I think we should let Bombette decide," offered Freddi, cheerfully.
Bombette nodded, "Very well. I could do that!"
"I know who should go home first. It's quite obvious." - Bombette
"Eevee's gotta go," noted Bombette, "Sure, she may be weak, but she's like the Rose's pride and joy! If she stays, they'll be more motivated. She's a cheerleader!"
Both Blaze and Lady nodded.
"I agree." noted Lady.
"I like that idea. Eevee is a definite source of happiness in the Rose tribe. She's the largest threat right now." - Blaze
But Lady was still unsure.
"I don't know. I like Eevee, and I really like to stick with the Rose tribe...(sighs)" - Lady
Meanwhile, Midna and Pipsy were talking.
"Do you feel in trouble tonight?" asked Pipsy.
Midna shook her head, "We got you, me, Eevee, Lady, and Cynder. There's no way we're in trouble."
"I feel pretty confident that Lady and Cynder will have my back tonight. I have nothing to worry!" - Midna
Just then, Lady arrived.
"Any updates?" she asked.
Midna shook her head, "Nah. Not really."
Lady told the two of them that the Violets wanted Eevee out.
"Really? Wow." said Pipsy in slight shock.
"Over me? That's quite stupid of them." chuckled Midna.
"Now I hope Cynder and Lady stick with us, because I really don't want Eevee to go home, yet. She's my friend." - Pipsy
"I'd say we vote out Bombette tonight," offered Lady, "I mean, it's not like it's gonna hurt you guys, right?"
Midna nodded, "That can be arranged. Yep, it can. Bombette is gone."
"Tonight, we're voting out Bombette, and I really hate to too, since she was so nice in the beginning." - Midna
Lady was very afraid when walking to tribal council.
"I made a mistake by playing both sides, I know it. I just know it's gonna hurt me later on..." - Lady
– – – – –
The Flower tribe entered tribal council.
"We've been out here for 24 days. Eevee, do you still have it in you?" asked Jeff.
"I do. I will never have a moment where I will or want to quit. Sure it's been rough on me, physically, but mentally I still got it." replied Eevee.
"Midna, has the game changed for you since the last tribal council?" asked Jeff.
"Nope. I'm still playing the way I was entering the merge." replied Midna.
"Etna, do you vote the strongest Rose out tonight?" asked Jeff.
Etna shook her head.
"Nah, the Violets are knocking off the cheerleader off the team." replied Etna.
Everyone was confused now.
"Wait, cheerleader?" asked Jeff, confused.
Etna nodded.
"Lady, who do you think Etna is talking about?" asked Jeff.
Lady looked at Etna, who nodded as if saying 'Say it'.
Lady sighed.
"Eevee." replied Lady.
Eevee was now worried.
"Cynder, does that influence your vote?" asked Jeff.
"No. I think Eevee isn't a threat at this point. I think it needs to be someone who is a threat." replied Cynder.
"Ok, it's time to vote, Eevee, your up."
– – –
Blaze's Vote: Sorry, but you are the pride and joy of Rose. Nothing personal. (Eevee)
Etna's Vote: Gotta take out a Rose tonight. Sadly, your the choice tonight. (Eevee)
Lady's Vote: I'm gonna regret this, forever. (?)
Midna's Vote: I wish you stuck with us, you had a decent future ahead of you. (Bombette)
Pipsy's Vote: Sorry, but you flipped on us, and we're sending you home. (Bombette)
– – –
"When 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, Eevee. (She sniffed.)
Eevee. Two votes Eevee.
…
…
Bombette. One vote Bombette.
…
Bombette. Tied two votes Bombette, two votes Eevee.
…
Eevee. Three votes Eevee, two votes Bombette.
…
…
Eevee. That's four votes Eevee. (Eevee shut her eyes for the worst.)
…
…
…
Bombette. Three votes Bombette, four votes Eevee. (Eevee opened her eyes.)
…
Bombette. We are tied. Four votes Eevee, four votes Bombette. One vote left.
Tenth person voted out of Survivor Cuties, and the first member of our jury...
…
…
…
…
…
…
…
…
...Bombette.
Etna, Blaze, and Freddi were all shocked, while Lady just threw her head down to avoid their looks.
"Bombette, the tribe has spoken."
He snuffed out her torch.
"Time for you to go."
Bombette left without another word.
"Looks like, in my eyes, Violet pulled out another move. But it seems to me, by the looks on your faces, that a new game has been made. Grab your torches, and head on back. Good night."
As they headed back, a single tear fell down Lady's face, knowing she had just gone against her original alliance...
– – – – –
Bombette – Midna, Eevee, Cynder, Lady, and Pipsy
Eevee – Etna, Bombette, Blaze, and Freddi
I don't understand why some people think Bombette could make the F4, even though she had the lowest chance out of anyone to make it that far.
