Chapter 11B: Seattle Elimination 2

"How could you do that?" Samantha found out the truth, and took no delay in questioning her boyfriend.

"How couldn't I? He was walking so slow."

"You betrayed your friend! How could you live with yourself like that?"

"I could." Jake interrupted.

"Stay out of this!"

"I want an answer, and while we're at it, We're through!"

Jake decided to offer some sarcastic terms of endearment. "It's okay six-pack. We all make mistakes, and you made all the wrong ones."

Dakota felt a little remorse. It was a little only because he felt like Chris was using him. Feeling he was the next to go, he went the boys' quarters to talk to Josh. "Josh? You busy?"

"What do you want?"

"Since Sam's immune, wanna get rid of Michelle?"

"Jake needs to go."

"Keep him. The jury will never vote for him to win. If anyone's going it's me or her."

"I'll just vote for you then."

"Ugh."

***Confessional***

Dakota: No one trusts me anymore! It was just a little trip, nothing special. Logan could have just gone around.

***Back to Game***

Josh left the quarters and chatted with Samantha. "Hey. Sorry about Dakota."

"Don't talk to me."

"Geez. What did I do? Sure Holly thinks I'm a stalker, but I'm not like that."

"Now's not the time."

"Where's Michelle at?"

"She's got airsick for some reason. She's been resting ever since the plane took off."

"Who you voting for?"

"Isn't it obvious? If I were you I'd vote for him too."

"Sure. I'll be on that. Got any coffee?"

"I'm all coffeed out. Maybe there's some tea in the galley."

***Confessional***

Josh: I'm glad I'm back in the game, but it's so boring with only five of us. To be honest, I'm having second thoughts on voting off Dakota. Michelle's a bigger threat than he is. Maybe I'll go talk to him.

***Back to Game***

After getting some tea, Josh decided to go back into the boys' quarters. "You're back?" Dakota asked.

"Yeah. You're right. We need to get rid of Michelle. She's a threat if she stays."

"See? I'm glad I got some sense in you. Now we just need Jake."

The two guys went into the cargo hold to find Jake, who was welding one last weld. "Got it!"

"What just happened?" Josh asked, not really knowing what was going on.

"Just finished something. It'll be a finale that no one will forget."

"What?"

"Never mind."

"Will you help us vote off Michelle?"

"I'll see."

"All contestants to the elimination area!" Chris was ready to start the ceremony. Moments later, everyone arrived and sat in their seats. "Wow. Only five of you left, and four coffee mugs to give out. Chef and I used up the spares from Denver. Each of you has voted and soon one of you will be taking the fifth place finishing spot on Total Drama American Tour."

"Just get on with it." Samantha was more than eager to start the ceremony.

"First up, Sam and Josh are safe." Chris handed out coffee mugs to Josh and Samantha. "Jake, you're safe too. No one voted for you this time. Quite a shocker."

"Cool. No votes!" Jake was happy to receive a coffee mug.

"Dakota and Michelle? You two are on the chopping block." The two of them cringed in fear for the final coffee mug. "The person eliminated tonight is…Dakota!"

"What? I thought we had a deal guys?"

"Exit's that way. Just strap this on and jump out that door."

Dakota put on the parachute, but before he could jump out, Chris called him back. "Sorry. I'm just joshing you."

"Hey!" Josh interrupted.

"You're safe, which means that Michelle's out!"

"What? How could you vote me off?"

"You were too strong." Josh answered. "No offense given. You're a great person, and someone that I can hang around with, but not someone who I would want to compete for a million dollars with."

Michelle brushed Josh's insult off as she jumped off the plane, parachute and all. Chris congratulated the four remaining players afterwards. "Congratulations to the final four. We'll be heading south to sunny California where our tour will unfortunately end. With two more locations left. One last big challenge, and then a jury vote to determine the winner! So rest up."

The final four contestants went back to their quarters. In the girls' quarters, Samantha was by herself. She thought of something insignificant for a while, and then went to sleep.

***Confessional***

Samantha: Last girl, huh? I can do this. I can totally beat the guys. The girls' quarters will be very quiet now.

***Back to Game***

Chris took the time to end the show. "Four left as we head to San Francisco, the West Coast city of pride. One will win the million, and the other three will wish they did. Find out as the players face their memories next week right here on Total Drama American Tour!"

AN: Next week's location is very important to the flow of the game. Make sure not to miss it.
