I got too impatient to wait for the rest of the votes, so I chose the one with the most votes up to this point. Enjoy.


Ninth Campfire Ceremony

"You know, she shouldn't have been after him with such passion," Alex was complaining to Todd, Erik, and Walter. The three boys groaned as Alex went on. "And, she knows that he's not into girls like him. I mean, he's dating Gwen, right? They are dating still, right?"

"If you like her so much, why don't you just ask her out?" Todd questioned.

"And save us all from your constant blabber!" Walter said.

"Because that would make me seem jealous," Alex said.

"Which you are," Walter said.

"Am not! And what's more—"

"I'm going to go cast my vote," Erik said standing up and turning around.

"I'm right behind you," Walter said.

Todd looked at them, pleading with his eyes for them not to leave.

"And she just called him Alan and he was okay with it?" Gail had caught Bex and Jamie as Jamie had started a fire to cook the roast Bex had managed to snag from Chef while Jamie distracted him discussing carving knife brands.

"Maybe he thought it useless to correct her," Bex suggested. "I mean, she still called Chris Chip. And she still doesn't know who Tyler is. I mean, she would have gone on calling him Alan, or Alfred, or who knows what."

"He was practically drooling!" Gail said.

"You know, since you're not officially dating him, and you giggle when Rufus flirts with you, you really don't have any room to complain," Jamie said.

"I do if he ever wants to get a date with me," Gail said.

Confession Cam:

(Erik) His face is red from the heat. "Finally, free, man, I never thought he would shut up… wait, he still hasn't. Anyway, my vote for today is Brooke. Why? Because she has it out for me. No, I'm just kidding… not about my vote. I am voting for her, but I don't think she really adds much to the team."

(Walter) He's sweating from the heat. "Well, that was different. It was neat to see some of the older campers, even if it was just for a little bit while chasing them. I am a little mad about that though. Not about not being able to catch Courtney, but the fact that Rufus and Jaime found her and Bridgette by following me. I guess I shouldn't really be mad about it since it was just good strategy and all, but still, something about it just makes me mad about it. But, I guess I can't complain too much since he did get Jaime to give me immunity and all. But, that's not really why I'm here is it? I'm supposed to be voting. Ah, give me a minute to think here."

(Genevieve) Still red in the face, but a bit perkier than before, and still in Madison's hat. "I am so glad that Courtney knew exactly what to do, I feel so much better now, but I'm still staying in the shade for the rest of the day until the sun goes down. Anyway, I'm voting Erik. I mean, yeah, he did get caught in a lasso, but him being down is dragging us all down, and he was hanging with the other team."

(Brooke) She sighs. "My choice today is Erik."

(Walter) "Okay, well, after a little thought about it, I can't really say us losing this challenge was really anyone's fault, except maybe my own for leading Jaime and Rufus to Courtney and Bridgette." He facepalms while saying this, then sits up straight again. "And of course, luck probably played a good factor in this since none of us are really trackers or anything. Of course, that kind of thinking really has come to some bad voting in the past, so that doesn't really matter. I could be evil and vote off Brooke to mess with Todd and get him so mopey that he'd drag his whole team down, but that's just to mean and not my style. I think I've been hanging around Nessa and Rufus too much. Speaking of Nessa, I'm not voting for her since she's to smart a player, plus we're in that alliance and all. Zak's to smart to lose either. Erik's gotta stay, he's probably gotta be the most athletic guy we have left, not to mention, I can usually stand to be around him. And Phoebe is decently tough. So that leaves Genevieve, which if memory serves right, I've voted for a few times before because she just doesn't strike me as the brightest person, but she's managed to stick around every time. I'm not sure why, but this feels like the last time I'm really gonna have a real shot at getting rid of her, so I'm voting for her. Plus, another day like today and she might die, so you can think of it as me doing her a favor."

(Todd) "I finally escaped Alex… set him loose on Erik and Walter again telling him I had something to confess about Brookworm. Not really, nothing new on that front. Well, she's getting tan, as all of us are, and now she really glows, which is awesome. For some reason, her tan is a lot better looking than anyone else's tan."

"And you know what else?" Gail said, still ranting about Alex.

"Shut up!" Bex and Jamie said together. Gail's eyes widened, and then she turned around and walked off. The two smiled and high-fived.

Confession Cam:

(Gail) "I can't believe that Bex and Jamie actually asked me to shut up! Like, how rude!"

(Jamie and Bex) Bex is sitting on Jamie's lap and he has his arms around her waist. "God, she was getting so annoying," Bex said.
"That's why I can't stand girls like her," Jamie said. He looks at Bex. "Unlike you. You wouldn't take shit like that from anyone. You'd just forget him or kick his ass."
Bex tried to look innocent, but her façade faded quickly and she nodded. "Yeah, that's probably true."
Suddenly there is pounding. "Get out of there, you two," Phoebe's voice demanded. "I still need to place a vote and I don't want to wait until you get cum all over." Bex and Jamie blush violently.

(Phoebe) Looking around still standing. "It looks cum free…" she sits down and faces the camera. "Okay, so I'm pretty sure I'm safe… after all, I did catch Trent… And I now totally understand Gwen's full attraction to him. He's got rock hard abs, and smalls so good, a little musky, but not too much. Not to mention, dreamy eyes…"

(Zak) "Well, I'm going to go with the one I know at least two others are voting for, because, I don't know how many are voting for me."

When the sun went down, the blistering heat disappeared and the temperature dropped dramatically. When Chris appeared before the campfire, he was surprised to see the Iguanas and the Toucans all crowded around it for warmth, wrapped in blankets, and huddled together.

"Hey, you guys are all messing my mojo," Chris said. "There are only supposed to be seven of you. Not all fourteen… I'll just… Seven Iguanas sit before me, but I only have six marshmallows on this plate. The Iguana camper that does not receive a marshmallow must walk the Dock of Shame, board the Boat of Losers, and leave Camp Wawanakwa 2, forever. The first marshmallow goes to… Walter."

Walter stood, took his marshmallow, then sat back down, shivering slightly.

"Next, Nessa," Chris said.

"Toss it over," Nessa called.

Chris complied. "Zak," he continued, tossing him a marshmallow. "Phoebe." He looked at them all slowly. "The next marshmallow goes to Genevieve."

Genevieve sighed deeply and took her marshmallow, cradling it gently like it was a kitten rather than a fluffy treat.

Erik and Brooke both widened their eyes, but Erik sighed and leaned back a bit. He was used to the chopping block. Todd reached out and took Brooke's hand tightly.

Confession Cam:

(Jamie) "Maybe I should have given immunity to Brooke. I didn't think people would vote for her… unless they're trying to get to Todd…"

"And the final marshmallow goes to… Brooke."

"Oh, thank God!" Todd said and smiled at her.

"Wait, you guys voted me off?" Erik asked.

"Thank you captain obvious," Nessa said.

Erik turned and frowned at Madison. "This is your fault, Cowgirl. You and your stupid lasso…"

"Shut up and leave already," Bex said. No one was about to move away from he campfire.

"Not until I've had my say," Erik said. "You are all obnoxious. You all know that I deserve this prize more than any of you; I'm the most athletic one here. Sorry I'm not manipulative or a bitch or insane. I hope you all get what's coming to you. And as for you, Cowgirl, I'm sure there are a few mental hospitals just waiting for you to get back to Texas so they can argue over who gets to have their celebrity patient, because the only reason you haven't been voted off yet is because you're literally insane!"

Suddenly, he was shut up as Rufus punched him in the jaw. Chef grabbed him before he could recover and dragged him to the Boat of Losers kicking and screaming. Once he was safely away from the island, they all turned to Rufus.

"Defending Madison, I see," Walter said.

"No, shutting him up because he was giving me a headache," Rufus said, and pulled his blanket tighter around himself.

Madison smiled at him. "Well, thanks anyways," she said.

Everyone pulled closer together, trying to get closer to the fire, no one wanting to brave the cold. Soon, Bex fell asleep on Jamie's lap. Then Brooke against Todd's shoulder. Gail and Phoebe both fell asleep leaning on Genevieve, who was lucky enough to not slump forward or back when her eyes shut. Finally, it was down to Walter, Nessa, and Rufus, and Nessa was only awake because Walter had woken her after Todd and Jamie had fallen to sleep.

"Next time, we should be prepared to vote off, no matter which team loses," Nessa said quietly.

"Really, what made you come to that conclusion?" Walter said, sarcastic, yet quiet. "Our plan for today went perfectly."

"The point is, right now, your team is a lot physically stronger," Nessa said to Rufus.

"Which is why I think we need them to turn on one another, Rufus said. He pointed to Gail and Alex. "Like them. And I need you two to make that happen, because they don't really trust me. I've got Jamie under control, but you need to get Bex, Todd, and the recent broken up before together to start to not trust anyone else."

"What about her?" Nessa asked, pointing to Madison who had fallen asleep leaning back to back with Alex.

Rufus shrugged. "Like Erik said, she's insane. Now, I'm going to sleep… in my own tent." He stood and walked off, leaving Walter and Nessa with the sleepers by the fire.

"Too cold to leave," Nessa said. She leaned against Phoebe again and closed her eyes.
