Episode 10 - Revenge Never Tasted So Sweet
The chapters from now on will be shorter than before, but I hope that's okay with you guys. Also, from now on, there'll be a poll up for each episode to vote on as well as questions for every episode (starting with episode 10) so that I can see where to go with eliminations and the finale. I hope that that's not too much for you guys...On with the story!
...
The contestants made it back to the cabin and prepared to go to sleep. In the boys' side of the cabin, Fredrick, Christopher, and Damien were keeping to themselves, putting on their pajamas and doing what anyone would do before they slept. But, Fredrick put on some classical music on his small radio, and Christopher immediately noticed.
"Hey, you like classical?" Christopher asks, "I do."
Fredrick turns his music off for a second, "Oh. Yeah. It's really good...it's better than shitty rock or metal music though...it's so loud that I can't bear it!" Fredrick turned his music on again, lying down on his bed to fall asleep to the music.
But, Fredrick's music was turned off by Damien, who looked like he wanted to talk, "Um, what did you say?"
Fredrick looked to Damien, "About what?"
"About hating rock and metal...that's an offense to my entire existence!" Damien said. His voice was indifferent, so Fredrick was unsure if Damien wanted to start an argument or was making a joke.
"Well, it's my opinion. You don't have to listen to it if you don't want to. But, I like sleeping to the classical music...it calms me," Fredrick tried to turn on his music again, but Damien dropped the radio on the floor.
"Oops," Damien muttered, and he took a seat next to Fredrick, who looked mad, "You know something? I don't really know you that well...which is weird because we sleep in the same cabin." Damien turns to Christopher, who was in bed but watching them, "Don't you agree?"
Christopher shrugged, "Well, you only ever talked to Drew...I haven't actually seen you talk or make close relationships with anyone...I'm just saying." He turns away to sleep.
"See?" Damien told Fredrick, "Everyone seems to agree...something's up with you...who have you sabotaged to take out of the competition?"
Fredrick growled, "Leave me alone. I've done nothing."
"No! I want to know...you're kind of cool, actually," Damien whispers so that Christopher wouldn't hear, "If you paired yourself up with Aurora and I, we could be an amazing alliance! With Aurora and I's bullying and whatever skills you have...we could be amazing!"
"Don't fuck with me because I don't want to get involved with your life," Fredrick said.
"Come on!" Damien whispered, "Please! Dude, your silence to the others may be threat to those like Alice or Christopher who clearly are allies at this point! Think of all that we could accomplish!"
Fredrick sat quietly on his bed, con tempting what he should do, "Fine. I'll see if you guys are worth it. But, I'm a good guy; I promise. I won't ever do anything bad so don't pressure me to be awful...I'm a quiet kid. An introvert."
Damien smiled, "Awesome man, we'll do great. My convincing has been successful!" The boys all then went to sleep.
Fredrick: (CONF.) Fredrick and Aurora are digging themselves a fucking hole with me...saying that I would never do anything wrong was the most revolting thing that I could've said!
The scene now focused on the girls, who were not yet asleep. Aurora was reading a book while listening to metal music while Alice and Silver were sitting next to each other, drawing pictures on Silver's notebooks and pads.
Alice was singing a little bit too, writing a song on a piece of paper.
Alice: (CONF.) I'm currently rewriting the song that I sang when James and I weren't on the best terms. It's embarrassing and weird, but I think Steven and I could make a great duet song with it! Silver has been a great help with it! She seems sweet so...we'll be good friends; I hope!
"How does this sound?" Alice asked Silver as she sang a section that she was reworking. By the end, Silver gave her a thumbs up, signaling that it was decent.
"To be honest," Aurora asked, "I think you should just scrap the song."
"Why?" Alice asked, "Is this another one of your bullying tactics? It's not working, if you didn't know."
Aurora chuckled, "That's not why I'm saying that. I don't think it's a good song It's so negative but you're so positive. It kind of takes away from your brand."
Alice smiles, "Do you really think so?" Aurora nods. "Wow, thanks Aurora for the advice! I mean, I love the song as it is but if you really think so...that's the nicest thing that you've ever said to me!"
"Don't get used to it," Aurora claimed, "You're still the competition that Damien and I need to eliminate." She smiles, "Good luck beating us!"
The girls all then went to sleep, ready for the next day.
...
The sun hit its peak after noon, and it meant lying down around the beach to complain about the heat.
Christopher had already finished cleaning up the beach from the storm and was hanging out with Silver and Alice. Alice was tanning on a chair that Courtney let her borrow and was relaxing. Silver sat by her and was writing a short story.
Silver: (CONF.) *on paper* I'm writing a short story about making friends. It's a bit of a bittersweet one, but after all that's happened on the show, I think that I'll be able to write one!
Alice smiled, "Life is good...even though it's so hot that I want to go inside...but the cabins don't have air conditioning so is anything really worth it?"
Christopher chuckles, "And you say that life is good?"
"Life is good!" Alice responds, "It's just that it's hot! Oh my..."
The cameras then looked over at Damien and Aurora, listening to some of their favorite rock albums. They were reading the same book as well, flipping the page when they were done.
Fredrick was walking around the beach, but was called up by Damien, who seemed ecstatic to be seeing him. Fredrick, despite looking very annoyed, moved on anyway with Damien's command, walking up to them.
"What?" Fredrick asked.
"Come on dude, sit with us! It'll be great getting to know our ally!" Damien holds Fredrick and sits him down, turning off the rock music that was playing, "How about we formally gather our alliance and meet each other. Aurora, this is Fredrick! Fredrick, this is Aurora!"
Aurora looked confused yet waved at Fredrick, who nodded in response.
"Well, I hope that things remain comfortable and not awkward between us," Damien happily says, turning on his music.
"Uh, Damien, can I talk to you for a minute? Alone?" Aurora asks, standing up with him and walking to the side of the cabin, "What the hell are you doing?"
Damien was confused, "What do you mean? I thought you'd realize it without me telling you. It's a scam!"
"What scam?" Aurora asks.
"I'm trying to put some sabotage into the works! If we get Fredrick - the person who isn't friends with anyone, to ally with us, then we'll lead him into some trap and have him lose a challenge or blame him for someone's misfortune, and he'll be eliminated! Another thing that we could do is bring him to the final three and eliminate him there!" Damien whispered, "It's fool proof!" He holds Aurora's face, "Trust me. I'm a smart guy and I know what I'm doing."
Aurora sighs heavily, happy of Damien's affection but was still suspicious, "Don't you think you're taking a bit of a risk here?" Aurora questions, "I mean, maybe there's a reason why he's quiet...maybe he wants to eliminate everybody too."
"He told me last night that he was an introvert, and I agree with that! Have you seen him? Barely talks to anyone!"
"For a reason," Aurora says, shaking her head, "I don't trust him."
"I do," Damien answers, "I get that you may be uncomfortable about the fact that someone is coming in between us when it's been me and you since the beginning, but we have to do something to make it easier to make it to the finale!"
Aurora thinks for a second, then nods, "Fine...I guess you're right." She looks at Damien, "I'll try to be nice to him.
The two walk back to Fredrick, "That's my girl!"
Aurora: (CONF.) I'm still suspicious and I won't just be okay with what Damien thinks is right. Fredrick may seem smart and quiet with others, but that doesn't mean he really is like that. I'll be watching him.
...
Manny and Courtney laid down a table and placed some questionable plates and cups of foods and drinks, "Alright guys! It's time for another two part challenge that involves eating! Head on over!" Manny yells, with everybody conglomerating and taking a seat to their liking. On one side of the table, Fredrick, Aurora, and Damien had a seat. On the other side, Alice, Silver, and Christopher had a seat.
"For the first part of today's challenge, each person must eat down an entire meal of a select platter of food and a cup of a drink that Courtney and I made by mixing all of the things that we bought from the supermarket on the mainland. If you are the first finish up your entire platter of food, you'll get the opportunity to choose your partner for the second part of the challenge. Then, once everybody is finished with their lunch, we will assign you your partner by random and we will then begin the final part of the challenge. Are we ready?"
Courtney begins passing out a plate of disgusting food and a cup of some kind of liquid that was unknown to all of the contestants.
"Ooh..." Courtney moaned, "Delicious! We hope you guys like our cooking!"
Damien mutters, "Fuck no..."
Manny soon blows his horn, "Begin the eating!"
The contestants started digging into their foods, hoping to finish their entire meal first. But, they started eating slower as they soon realized how bad the lunch really was.
"Oh..." Alice groaned, opening her mouth to place some oddly colored salad in. She gagged, "Keep it together Alice...keep it together."
Aurora was trying to not wince at the unsightly sandwich that clearly had meat mixed with peppers, cheese, and some white liquid that looked like ranch dressing. She closed her nose and ate a part of the sandwich and she gagged really loud.
Aurora: (CONF.) I know that I have to try hard, but if the food is disgusting, then who can win this?!
Damien looked plain sick. He had only ate a bite of a cheeseburger that clearly had little cheese or burger in it and he had already thrown up in Fredrick's direction, disgusting everyone.
"Sorry guys, I've got a weak stomach," He moaned.
"But that doesn't mean that you have to puke on me!" Fredrick yelled as he closed his eyes and bit into his sandwich once again.
Damien looked at Aurora, who was almost done, "How are you doing this?"
"I'm not..." Aurora moaned, "I'm just pretending that I don't exist right about now." The continued on with the eating.
Christopher was not doing better either. He had to eat this jelly that had some weird objects inside of it. He tried to pretend like it was regular jelly, but Silver kept staring at it in a disgusted way that Christopher couldn't help but notice.
Silver wrote on paper, "I'm pretty sure that there's bugs in that jelly."
Christopher gagged and vomited on the ground, wiping his mouth with tissue provided by Courtney, "Silver..." He groaned, "Why?!"
"You had to know!" Silver wrote again, putting her notepad away.
Silver: (CONF.) *paper* A big goal of mines is to make friends with Christopher and Alice. I don't know them very well, but they seem like great people to be friends with as well as allies to get to the top three with!
Aurora slammed her cup of a mixed liquid and yelled, "Done!"
Courtney smiled, "And Aurora has won the first part of the challenge! Dang girl, you've been on fire for these past two days!" She started cleaning the plates up, "Wow...there's a lot of vomit on the floor!"
Damien chuckled, "She's the queen of challenges!" Aurora smiled.
Damien, Christopher, and Alice contributed to a splatter of vomit on the floor, and no one had the guts to actually clean it up. Manny started announcing what would happen now.
"So, with Aurora winning, she will have the opportunity to choose whoever she wants to work with for the challenge that will determine who stays and who is up for elimination! Aurora...make your pick!"
Aurora had to question herself for a second.
Aurora: (CONF.) My boyfriend is my number one priority, but I have to consider the fact that he's a bit weak right now from the shitty food that we were forced to eat! I know that Fredrick is on our side now but...I have no faith in him whatsoever. And the three 'good' people? They wouldn't partner up with me to save their life!
"I'll have to go with, obviously, Damien!" Aurora smiled, hugging Damien who was bending at his hip and looking at the floor.
Damien smiled, "Obviously! Who else would you have picked?!" Aurora agrees, looking to Manny.
"So, Courtney and I randomly gave our four remaining contestants a partner to work on," Courtney started, "Those partners include Fredrick and Silver and Alice and Christopher!"
Alice cheered, "Awesome! I get to be with my man! Yeah!" She hi-fives Christopher, who seems glad to have been partnered up with his friend.
"Sorry Silver," Fredrick told Silver, "You're gonna have to deal with me!"
Silver shrugs, indicating that she felt indifferent about the situation.
Silver: (CONF.) *paper* I am completely the OPPOSITE of indifferent right now! What if Fredrick tries to sabotage our partnership and get us both in trouble? I can't handle it right now! Could we possible have a trio do a challenge?
Manny spoke, "Now, for the next part of the challenge, every group must put their legs in one of these three potato sacks and will run in the classic race of the Potato Sack Race! You've all just eaten an exquisite lunch, so this challenge should have absolutely no effect on how you perform in the challenge!"
Everyone groaned at the obvious sarcasm that Manny was throwing at them, and they proceeded to get into a sack to run in.
Courtney pointed at Manny's cabin, "The race will end at Manny's cabin. The first team that makes it there is immune from elimination as well as the second team! And you know what's gonna happen for the team that loses? BOTH of them will be up for elimination and the immune contestants will be the ONLY ones that will vote out whom from the losing team will be sent away. Ready?" The contestants, frightened at the rules of today's challenge, got ready to rumble. Manny blew his horn, "Run run run as fast as you can!"
The partnered teams were racing as fast as they could. Actually, they were really jumping and trying to find the right rhythm so that they could make it to the cabin fast. The obvious problem was that the food that they ate was coming back up their esophagus, ready to go all over the floor.
Christopher was the first to vomit, falling over along with Alice.
"Oh.." Christopher groaned in pain, "My stomach..."
"Don't worry," Alice said, picking them up, "We can keep going until the end."
Then, Fredrick and Silver passed them, both jumping at different times so that they could go fast. But, Silver tripped and fell over, vomiting on the sand. It was very sticky, and Fredrick groaned after having some of the vomit touch his face.
Fredrick yelled, "Silver! Why the hell are you so nasty! Clean this vomit up! Blech!" Fredrick then gagged, and crouched into the potato sack, "Damn it...I think my food is gonna come out!"
Silver, getting scared, grabbed Fredrick and put his face out of the sack as he vomited on the sand. Luckily, the sack wasn't filled with any vomit yet.
Alice groaned, "This is so nasty!" She gagged too, but tried to keep it in to the best of her ability. Christopher and Alice carried on, though.
Fredrick looked back to Aurora, who seemed to be helping Damien move along since he looked very sick. Fredrick then turned around, "We need to help them. They're behind."
Silver automatically got scared. Fredrick started jumping back to Aurora and Damien while Silver was trying to go forward. The two fell over from their opposite directions.
"Come on Silver, it's our duty to help those in need!" Fredrick yelled, pulling one way.
She shook her head violently, pulling the other way.
In the end, Fredrick won and tugged the sack to Aurora and Damien.
"Friends! Can I be at your service?" Fredrick asked, faking a smile.
Damien chuckled, "What a gentleman! See Aurora?" Damien vomited then spoke, "He's a great friend!"
Aurora rolled her eyes, "Now's not the time! We have to make it there Damien or we're gonna be up for elimination! Please try to jump!"
Damien vomited at an attempt at jumping, "I'm telling you Aurora; you have to help me because my stomach is evil!"
Aurora groaned loudly, annoyed at the little progress being made during the challenge, "Let's go!"
"We can help! Silver is down!" Fredrick yelled, pointing to Silver, who was shaking her head to say 'no.'
Damien smiled, "Is somebody scared? I think we should stay around sometime...you know Fredrick...maybe you could stay around so we could all eliminate Ms. Never Speaks." Aurora gave off a smile that sent bad messages to Silver.
Fredrick smiled, "Perhaps we could," He looks at Silver, chuckling, "What do you say?"
Silver got scared. She turned to Alice and Christopher, who were getting closer to Manny's cabin. In an act of swiftness, Silver grabbed a mix of the sand and vomit that Damien spit out and threw it at Aurora and Damien's faces, making them scream at the disgusting things on their faces.
Fredrick and Silver were making a quick jump for the cabin, with Fredrick yelling and laughing.
"Silver! What the hell! That was so fucking awesome!" Fredrick yelled. Silver wasn't paying attention because all that she could think about was not getting eliminated because of three scary people.
Fredrick: (CONF.) What Silver did was actually pretty cool even though she like never talks.
Silver: (CONF.) *paper* I feel so bad for what I did to Aurora and Damien! No one deserves their vomit and some sand in their face! But what could have I done! I definitely don't want to go home and especially because of three people who seem like they're in it to eliminate the rest!
Fredrick and Silver touched Manny's cabin second, as Alice and Christopher had already made it first.
Manny and Courtney walked up to the two teams that made it, "Good job you four...you're safe from elimination! But for Aurora and Damien however..." Manny looks to Aurora and Damien who were still cleaning their faces in the ocean, "One of them has to go and that person will be decided by you guys...let's see how it goes!"
...
(Elimination Ceremony)
The campfire was set. Alice, Christopher, Fredrick, and Silver were sitting on one side of the campfire while Aurora and Damien sat on the other side. Aurora was clearly emotional, holding onto Damien as he sat there feeling a bit better than he was in the afternoon.
Courtney would be doing the elimination tonight. She held out a platter of chicken wings and passed them out to the four winners of the day.
"So, our couple is in trouble tonight," Courtney started, "No matter what happens tonight, it definitely won't be fun for them. Let's see the confessionals on who our winners chose to send home... with no spoilers of course!"
Alice: (CONF.) Fredrick told me some things and Silver told me other things. I went with what Fredrick said... he sounded a bit more logical.
Christopher: (CONF.) Silver wrote to me that Damien, Aurora, and Fredrick were evil and should go, but she never wrote out who I should vote to send home. So, I just chose who I disliked more.
Fredrick: (CONF.) It's beautiful that my plan worked out even though I wasn't the one who sabotaged them! Ha!
Silver: (CONF.) *writes* This is all so absurd! I always felt that Fredrick was mysterious and evil, but now he's in with Aurora and Damien? Eliminating only one of them won't solve the problem!
Courtney looked at the votes and nodded, "Okay! The person getting eliminated tonight is...

...Damien! You must be really unpopular because everyone chose to vote you out!"
"Uh, isn't that information supposed to be confidential?" Alice asked.
"Yeah, no. Does it really matter?" Courtney asked, "All that matters is that Damien is our next victim of the Bee Boat of Shame!"
Damien hopped on the boat, giving a hug to Aurora, who was in tears.
"Wreck them," Damien told Aurora, "You're strong enough. Don't be stupid like me...I knew Fredrick was shady but I guess I underestimated what he..." Aurora stopped him there.
"Don't worry about Fredrick," Aurora said, "I can handle a pathetic bad boy like him... but Silver..." She closed her eyes and breathed out heavily, "How dare she do what she did to us! Throwing vomit and sand at us? How dare she!" Aurora was fuming at this.
"Don't you think that you're overreacting a little bit?" Damien asked, "What she did to us was pretty mild... I'm not mad at it. We were threatening her and she's clearly scared of us. She was pushed to throw the stuff at us."
Aurora shook her head, "Still. This entire show is going down and I'm the one whose taking it down..." Aurora kisses Damien, "I love you," and she walks off as the boat left the island along with Damien on it.
Courtney smiled, "It looks like there's a lot going on with everyone! With five remaining on the show, who will have their dreams of winning a million dollars crushed in the blink of an eye? Find out next time on Total Drama Panganib Island 2!"
