(Alright, let's hit up another episode of Sparkling Waters, party people! I hope you guys enjoy this one as much as the last.)
Previously, on Survivor…
21 mages of the famed guild Fairy Tail were brought out to Sparkling Waters to play the game of Survivor, a prize of 100 Million Jewel on the line. They were divided into 3 tribes - Warrod, comprised of S-Class contenders; Precht, comprised of their helpers; and Yuri, comprised of assorted members.
All three tribes found their camps. At Warrod, Natsu angrily wondered where their camp was, with Levy reminding him that they had to build it. The men of the tribe instantly got to work, getting something built.
At Precht, Gajeel was forced to step up as the provider for his tribe, due to them not wishing to work. On Day 2, he rallied them together to get a better shelter built.
At Yuri, most everyone got to work building a shelter while Laxus went out to find food. Mest wanted to take the game seriously, but found himself on a tribe full of casual players. Also, Gildarts and his Crash Magic accidentally destroyed the shelter, forcing them to start over.
At the Immunity Challenge, the Fairies didn't know they could all go at once, leading the hosts to have to explain it. When it got to the puzzle portion, Lucy set a record time on the five piece puzzle, finishing first for Precht. Levy finished after her, scoring Warrod second place, and sending Yuri to Tribal Council.
Before Tribal Council, Mest tried to talk strategy with the girls, but their casual attitude stayed with them. Gildarts's Crash Magic caused another accident, causing everyone to give him dirty looks.
And at Tribal Council, Mest voted with the rest of the tribe to send Gildarts Clive out of the game first. 20 are left. Who will be voted out tonight? Stay tuned to find out!
Warrod: Natsu, Gray, Juvia, Elfman, Cana, Levy, Freed
Precht: Happy, Lucy, Wendy, Lisanna, Gajeel, Evergreen, Bickslow
Yuri: Erza, Carla, Lily, Mira, Mest, Laxus
Yuri Night 3
The Yuri tribe happily lounged around a fire they had started, eating some meat Laxus had brought back. Laxus himself had retired, but all was well among the remaining members.
Well... Except one.
Mest watched his tribemates with a frown.
"How can they be so calm? We're supposed to be the best tribe, but we LOST... And they don't even care! If we want to survive, we have to care about the damn game! Ugh, maybe I can switch tribes..." -Mest
"it's nice to live without the threat of your home crumbling down," Lily laughed.
"We made the right choice for sure," Erza said.
"Besides, who would keep Gildarts around?" Carla pointed out. "He and Laxus can win easily."
"Laxus is the odd one out, eh? Maybe I can use this to my advantage to make things interesting!" -Mest
Warrod Day 4
"We're safe! Manly!" Elfman yelled.
"Let's drink up to celebrate!" Cana laughed.
"We even beat Laxus, Gildarts, and Erza!" Gray said, smirking.
"Of course, it was all thanks to my darling Gray-Sama!" Juvia cheered happily.
"Actually, that was me," Levy sighed. "At least we're safe, so I don't have to worry..."
"What the hell?! Don't just celebrate! How the hell did we come in behind those guys?! We should be in first!" Natsu yelled angrily. "This is all your fault, Gray!"
"My fault?! You're the slow one!" Gray yelled back.
"How dare you blame Gray-Sama!" Juvia growled.
"Oh boy..." Levy sighed. "Don't wreck the camp with your fighting!"
Freed watched silently.
"I'd much rather we had lost...What a dilemma, that my team would be separated through all the groups. It's a risk no matter who wins! I hope Laxus wasn't eliminated...I really need to know...Is Laxus safe? Is he eliminated?! I have to avenge him!" -Freed
"Are you okay, Freed? You look awfully tense," Levy said, worried.
Freed quickly snapped out of his reverie.
"Yes! I was just thinking, I should go get food for the tribe!" Freed said, hurrying off.
"Freed?! Hey, wait!" Levy called.
"Freed left me with the idiots all day, so of course, I had to turn to the sanest person in the camp other than him..." -Levy
"Cheer up, Levy! We're winning!" Cana laughed. She was employing her favorite habit- drinking.
"Kinda," Levy groaned. "We only scored second."
"But we're not losing!"
"If we don't pull it together, we might just be," Levy said worriedly.
"Don't be such a spoilsport! Join in the fun!" Cana laughed.
"I'm not drinking out here," Levy deadpanned.
Precht Day 4
"Yay, we won!" Lucy cheered.
"It's all thanks to you, Lucy!" Lisanna said, patting Lucy on the back.
"Aye! Three cheers for Lucy!" Happy yelled.
"You did very well, Lucy-San," Wendy smiled.
"I'm just glad we beat their asses," Gajeel smirked. "Let's keep winning!"
Bickslow and Evergreen just headed out to get food.
"They don't realize how close we were to losing. Idiots!" Evergreen scoffed.
"Cheer up, Ever," Bickslow said.
"Cheer up! Cheer up!" His tiki heads cheered.
"How can I cheer up when Laxus is the one in danger?" Evergreen scoffed.
"Laxus'll pull through," Bickslow reassured. "He always does."
"Oh..." Wendy sighed.
"What's wrong, Wendy?" Lucy wondered.
"I'm worried... What if Carla was voted out? I don't know what I would do without her..."
"Ah! That IS something to worry about!" Happy gasped.
"Carla will be fine, Wendy," Lucy assured.
"Yeah! Carla is way too good to be eliminated! She's just fine!" Happy exclaimed.
"I hope so..." Wendy murmured.
"Tch. The damn kid blatantly talks about being allied with someone in front of everyone else. Nevertheless, those guys didn't care... Looks like they're allies. I need my own allies. Maybe the Raijinshuu...?" -Gajeel
Yuri Day 4
"Laxus is out again," Mira noticed.
"He doesn't usually like to be around us," Carla deadpanned. "Talk about anti-social."
"That's Laxus for you," Erza replied. "Forget him. Let's do something to pass the time!"
Mest glanced at the girls as they chatted.
"Now's my chance. I'll get Laxus on my side in case we lose again," -Mest
Mest left the camp and began tracking through the forest. After some search, he located Laxus sitting alone.
"Laxus? What are you doing out here?" Mest called.
Laxus glanced at him, annoyance flashing through his gaze.
"What are YOU doing out here?"
"I'm just taking a walk," Mest quickly said.
"Same for me," Laxus said, looking away.
"So, um... The last challenge, and us losing..."
"Both of the other teams have really smart people. Of course we'll lose in a brain challenge," Laxus scoffed. "Put us in a brain challenge, and we're done. This game is set up so boringly... I hope we can use our fists soon."
"I was just thinking... It seems like you're gonna be voted out next if we lose again," Mest said.
"What about it?" Laxus grumbled.
"I could... Vote with you... And..."
"I'll keep it in mind, but how about we just win instead?" Laxus said, standing. "I'll be getting food until then."
With that, Laxus walked off.
"I think that went well," Mest muttered. Back at camp…
"What the hell is going on?"
Mest returned to find Erza using her magic to switch up everyone's clothing.
"Oh, hey Mest! We were bored, so we decided to try each other's clothes on!" Mira explained cheerfully. "Then, Erza decided to try out some of her armor!"
"That's a way to pass time..." Mest mumbled.
"Join us, Mest!" Erza said commandingly.
"No thanks, it looks like a girls only activity," Mest deadpanned.
"Lily is enjoying it," Erza replied.
Lily was decked out in Erza's heaven's wheel armor.
"I'll still pass..." Mest deadpanned. "Once seen, cannot unsee..."
"Your loss!" Erza huffed.
"Wouldn't Laxus look nice in a dress?!" Mira gasped.
"Laxus, stay the hell away from camp if you know what's good for you..." Mest muttered.
Immunity Challenge Day 5!
"Come on in guys!" Flash called. Colette and Aurora were with him, as usual. The tribes trailed over to the staff.
"Take a close look at the Yuri tribe, and you can see they're less one womanizer!" G said cheerfully. "That's right! Gildarts was voted out!"
"Ha! Suck it, Gildarts!" Natsu guffawed.
Natsu and Gray looked as if they had been through a hurricane, and most of Gray's clothes were gone. Colette took notice of this.
"The old man had it coming!" Cana laughed.
"Thank goodness it wasn't Laxus..." -Freed
Wendy and Carla smiled across at each other.
"So uh...Elfman." She pointed at Natsu and Gray. "What happened here?"
"Just some men having a good old fight," Elfman responded.
"Oh...alright then." Colette giggled.
"Yeah, they do that a lot." Flash spoke, then said something to Aurora, who nodded, now walking over to the two guys. Flash continued, "Y'know, I think it's really grand that I have such wonderful medics on my payroll, and one of which happens to be the Ultimate Nurse, so I'm not really that upset from any of you getting into physical altercations."
Aurora placed her left hand on Natsu's right shoulder, and her other hand on Gray's left, closing her eyes and going deep into focus. Both Natsu and Gray glowed lavender, the damage sustained from their 'good old fight' being healed in only a few seconds.
"Awesome! You're almost as good as Wendy!" Natsu grinned.
"Gracias." Aurora took the compliment well, heading back to Flash.
"Alright, now that that's taken care of...guys ready for today's Immunity Challenge?" Flash asked, excited. All three tribes cheered enthusiastically.
"First thing's first, Warrod. Precht. Gonna need 'em back." Colette went to the two tribes to collect the Immunity Idols. Both tribes obediently relinquished the Immunity Idols. The intern handed them back to Flash, who put them on their respective pedestals. "Once again, immunity is back up for grabs. G, wanna explain today's challenge?"
"Well, we have to travel a bit to reach the location!" G said cheerfully. "Why didn't we just tell you to meet us there? Because screw you guys! Now come on!" He lead them to a long path of geysers. "Here, you'll race in pairs across the geysers and back. It's a basic race... Except you're racing across water, so have fun!"
"One at a time, each pair will race out across the geysers to retrieve a key on a medallion keyring." Flash continued. "Once you return with the key, then the next pair goes. Once you retrieve all three keys, you will use them to unlock a chest, which contains a machete. First two tribes to cut the rope and raise their tribe flag, wins immunity. Safe from the vote. Losers go to Tribal Council where someone will be the second person voted out of this game."
"Not only is immunity at stake, you're also playing for reward." Colette added. "First tribe to finish..." She took off a cover to reveal pillows, blankets, and a tarp. "Comfort. Pillows, blankets, tarp, what you need to make things more comfy out here. Second tribe to finish, not as much but it's just as practical." Another cover was taken off to reveal just a tarp. "Worth playing for?"
"I could use some comfort..." Levy murmured.
"I'm ready for this!" Lucy grinned.
"Seems everyone is ready," G said cheerfully. "Right, pair up, and chose one person to sit out for those who have odd numbers of tribemates!" Natsu was chosen to sit out for Warrod, while Wendy was sat out for Precht.
"Give them the starting signal, Flash!" G said.
"Alright, here we go! For immunity and reward. Survivors ready? GO!" Flash sent them off!
The first three pairs were Laxus and Mest, Gray and Juvia, and Evergreen and Bickslow. Mest just teleported Laxus and himself to the finish line and back, getting the first key. Erza and Mira immediately set off, changing to sea empress armor and Satan Soul respectively. As Erza got in the water, Gray froze all of the geysers, trapping Erza. Bickslow and Evergreen flew over the frozen geysers easily using their wings and tiki heads. Mira dove down and shattered all the ice, allowing Erza free. Juvia then manipulated the water and attacked the Yuri representatives, but Erza was immune and slashed Juvia and Gray. By this time, Bickslow and Evergreen were well on their way back to their tribe.
"Yuri seems to be in the lead." Aurora mused. "Hard to tell who is in last..."
Evergreen and Bickslow brought in the first key for Precht. Happy began to Lucy over the geysers. The other two returning pairs arrived back, Erza and Mira leading slightly. Pantherlily and Carla flew out while Elfman and Cana were forced to run normally. Lucy turned Star Dress: Aquarius and manipulated the water to disrupt Warrod's movements. She got Precht's second key and arrived just before Pantherlily and Carla came back with the third key for Yuri.
"Yuri back with all their keys! Start working on that chest!" Flash called. Meanwhile, it was Levy and Freed against Gajeel and Lisanna. Gajeel and Lisanna had a slight lead, and neither seemed to have any special tricks.
"It is now Levy and Freed for Warrod, racing against Gajeel and Lisanna to get back with their last keys!" Colette narrated, glancing over at Yuri's progress with the chest. Yuri was just then opening the chest.
Freed and Levy stopped, looking tired. Gajeel and Lisanna sped up and got the third key. Yuri was just then opening the chest.
Freed and Levy stopped, looking tired. Gajeel and Lisanna sped up and got the third key.
"Freed and Levy, slowing down! The door's open, Precht!" Flash called.
"Strike that rope, Yuri!" Colette added. Lily took the machete and slashed the rope in a single strike, raising their tribe's flag.
"That does it! YURI WINS IMMUNITY AND REWARD! Now we're looking for second place!" Flash made it official.
"Dang it..." Levy mumbled.
Gajeel grabbed the key and the Precht pair began running back. Levy and Freed started running again a bit before them, but things were looking bleak for Warrod...
When suddenly, jutsu shiki popped up around Gajeel and Lisanna!
"What the hell?!" Gajeel growled.
"The rule is... We can't pass through until Freed and Levy have passed us?!" Lisanna read, astonished.
"Nice work, Freed!" Levy laughed.
"And Freed, makes a save with her Jutsu Shiki." Aurora color-commentated. "Precht isn't out of it yet..." She added that last part to herself as to not give Levy any ideas. At first she said it was Levy who made the save, but corrected herself.
"It was Freed's jutsu shiki," G corrected.
"That's why I corrected myself." Aurora turned away, a little embarrassed from that slip-up.
Levy and Freed got their key and hurried back to their tribe. As they passed the jutsu shiki, Gajeel and Lisanna were freed. The two pairs made it back at the same time. They got to work on opening the boxes...

Gray managed to cut the rope just before anyone on Precht, their flag shooting up!
"They have it! WARROD, WINS IMMUNITY AND REWARD! Sending Precht to Tribal Council!" Flash made it official yet again!
"Aw..." Happy sighed.
"What a bummer... Good work, Gajeel..." Lucy grumbled.
"Why is it my fault?!" Gajeel yelled.
"Sucks to be you, metal head!" Natsu laughed.
"And that's that! See you all at the TC!" G said cheerfully. Flash made sure to hand Yuri their immunity idol and reward, Colette doing the same for Warrod.
