Glad to see last chapter went down so well with all of you!

The camera opens up on a shot of the amphitheater once again. Most of the campers are filing in as instructed by Chris earlier in the morning.

Glares filled the air. Cody was glaring at Noah, Geoff and DJ were glaring at Courtney and Eva, and Courtney and Eva were glaring at, well, everyone in particular.

Sadie was glaring at Ezekiel as well, but that was cut with tears and silent sobs.

In the middle of all these hateful looks, Gwen, Beth, Harold, and Tyler looked pretty awkward indeed.

(Beth): So, the last few days have been pretty... tense.

(Harold): Poor Zeke; I just hope he can either get over Sadie or patch things up with her. He's just been in a colossal funk these past few days.

(Tyler): How come no one wanted to make an alliance with me last challenge? I was perfectly willing to vote Duncan off, but Courtney and Eva never approached me. It's like, ever since I've been back, I've been completely invisible.

Courtney sidled up to Noah, who was looking nervously at Cody. "So, any new ideas on how we can get further in the game?"

"What are you talking about?", said Noah, shortly, without looking once at Courtney.

"You know, our alliance."

"Oh, you mean the alliance that was secret, until everyone found about it. Yeah, I think I'm out."

"What? You can't do that?"

"I just did.", snarked Noah, then walked away.

"Want me to pound him for you?", said Eva, walking up.

"No, no.", said Courtney. "He's going down soon enough."

Suddenly, the curtains that closed off the theater portion of the amphitheater opened up, revealing Chris... in a pirate costume.

"Argh, ye land lubbers.", said Chris. "I be ye host, Captain McLean, here to give ye today's newest challenge."

The campers looked shocked at the display, having no other words for it.

"Today will be a hunt... for buried treasure!", said Chris, theatrically. "Each of ye will put their ugly mitts into this here bag, and take out the location of a hidden key. Then, ye will come back here at the end of yonder day to see which key opens which chest."

"Only one of these beauties contains tonight's invincibility.", finished Chris, patting one of the nearby treasure chests.

Chris held out the bag, as Ezekiel was the first to walk up. The homeschooled kid dug into the bag, pulling out a piece of wood with a picture of Chef carved into it.

"Uh, what does this mean, eh?", said Ezekiel.

"Oh, you've gotten one of the most dangerous pieces, matey.", said Chris. "You're key is located all the way in Chef Hatchet's kitchen."

The other campers all walked up and grabbed their respective clues. Most of them either looked in fear at what their clue had drawn on it, while others looked in confusion.

"All right, mateys, you've got until the end of the day to collect your booty.", said Chris. "So long, and good luck."

The curtain soon closed, indicating that the campers needed to get lost.

Ezekiel, before the campers totally dispersed, tried to run up to Sadie with a note. "Hey, Sadie, I made you this card...", began Ezekiel.

"I told you, I never want to see you again!", interrupted Sadie, running away crying again.

Harold walked up to a grief-stricken Ezekiel, and laid a hand on his shoulder.

(Sadie): I truly have no friends on this stupid island without Katie. If I want to beat this game for Katie, I need to make some new friends fast.

Cut to Sadie walking through the campgrounds looking for someone to ally with. Suddenly, she found the exact right person to do so.

Beth was currently balancing on a wooden bridge, over a small creek. This would be an odd position to find the farm girl in on itself, if not for the alligators crowding around in the creek below. A key was hanging by a rope under the bridge, as alligators snapped around it.

Beth finally got into a good position to bend down through the rickety bridge, reaching for the key... Almost there...

"Hey, Beth!", said Sadie, running up.

Beth, startled by the sudden noise, swayed on the bridge and fell through one of its many holes.

Sadie looked shocked at the sounds of the alligators snapping, then ran down to the creek bank. Beth crawled out from the creek, covered in bites, as well as her clothes being considerably torn.

"OMG, are you OK, Beth?", said Sadie, out of her mind with worry.

"I'm OK.", said Beth, woozily. "At least I got my key." She held up something white and sharp.

"Um, that's not a key, that's a gator tooth.", said Sadie. They both looked back at the torn rope that had been holding the key, then down into the creek. One alligator was chewing on the key, before spitting it out onto the bank, beyond repair.

Beth picked up the key, then glared at Sadie. "Well, I better be going.", said Sadie hastily, before rushing off.

Cut to DJ next to the biggest tree in the forest. He looked down at the carved wood in his hand, which depicted a lone pine tree. He glanced up at his key dangling halfway up the tree, and sighed. He began the long trek up the tree to his prize.

Eventually, after shimmying up the trunk of the tree for a considerable distance, he finally found the branch holding the key.

At first, he tried tightrope walking to the key, but he shook too much, eventually changing to crawling forward on the branch.

Just as he was about to reach the key, Sadie appeared below the tree. "Hey, DJ!", she yelled, waving vigorously.

DJ screamed in alarm, and fell off the branch. He bounced off seemingly every branch on his way down, as Sadie grimaced in response. Eventually he fell on his head once he reached the ground.

"Uh, DJ?", said Sadie.

Cut to Sadie who had brought DJ to the infirmary tent, where Chef was looking over him. "He'll be fine.", said Chef. "He'll just be out for most of the day."

Meanwhile, Gwen was walking to her destination, as she looked at the wood carving. It showed a picture of a skunk, and as she lowered the wood panel down, she saw one.

Gwen yelped, and dived behind a tree, watching the skunk. It blinked at the tree Gwen had dived behind, then turned to a hole in a small hill, running into it.

"A skunk den?", said Gwen. "Knowing Chris, that's probably where my key is."

Gwen heard footsteps from somewhere, and saw Sadie walking up to her. "Hey, Gwen, have you found your key yet?"

"Yeah, I'm pretty sure it's in that skunk den. Skunks freak me out."

"Well, you know my great uncle has a great way of getting rid of skunks.", said Sadie, after some thought. "It works 100% of the time."

"Really, that would be really cool of you.", said Gwen, gratefully.

"Trust me, this'll definitely work.", said Sadie, confidently.

Smash cut to a large cloud of skunk gas exploding on the island. Gwen runs away from the skunk den, fuming green smoke.

"Or, you know, maybe it was only 50% of the time it worked.", said Sadie, with a nervous chuckle, to Gwen's retreating backside.

Meanwhile, Geoff was looking at his wood carving with loathing. He put it down, and stared at the nearby septic tank attached to the communal bathroom.

"Chris, you are one sick, sick, sick dude.", shuddered Geoff. He walked over, put on goggles and a snorkel, and climbed into the tank.

Cut to Tyler, who was readying himself for a seemingly death-defying feat. He stretched his various muscles, and growled at the sight of a large ring a few feet away. The ring was on fire, and in the middle was his key, hanging by a rope.

Tyler got to his starting position, then ran to the ring. As he came closer and closer to said ring, Sadie appeared on the other side of it, waving. Tyler started in shock, knowing that he would run into the chubby girl if he kept at this pace.

He tired to screech to a halt, only to run straight into the bottom portion of the ring. Sadie shielded her eyes, as the sounds of screaming echoed throughout the camp.

Soon, the flames stopped, and Tyler walked up to Sadie, covered in ash. He held up his equally charred key... which promptly disintegrated into ash. The duo stared at one another.

Cut to Harold and Ezekiel standing on the dock of shame. Harold holds up his wood carving, seeing that it has a picture of a shark on it. He put it down to look at the key tied to a post in the water surrounded by circling fins.

"You know, you don't have to watch me fail, Zeke.", said Harold, gulping nervously.

"Wrong, I'm here to watch you win!", said Ezekiel, somewhat uncertainly.

Harold raised an eyebrow.

"Fine, you got me. I'm too scared to try and get the key from Chef's kitchen. I'm holding it off as long as I can."

Harold smiled. "When this is over, I'll help you get your key.", said Harold. "If I live, that is."

Harold prepared to dive into the lake, as Sadie appeared on the shoreline. Not seeing Harold, Sadie assumed Ezekiel was performing his challenge. She grabbed a stone from the beach, grinning wickedly, and threw it at the homeschooled boy. Ezekiel yelped in pain, and knocked Harold into the lake. Harold, screaming, soon swam away as fast as he could from the approaching sharks.

Sadie looked shocked, and zipped quickly away.

Noah was walking through the woods, much like DJ had been, before coming across a large cave. He glanced down at the picture of a grizzly bear, and sighed. He went into the cave.

Noah was soon tiptoeing past numerous sleeping bears, before coming across one with a key around its neck. Noah went to a crawl, and reached next to the bear for the key. Suddenly, the bear turned over in its sleep, grabbing Noah with its humongous paw.

Noah looked nervous at first, before he realized he was in a better position to grab the key. He did so.

As he was smirking triumphantly, the Bear began to chew with its sharp teeth on Noah's head in its sleep. The bear, realizing what it was chewing on, blinked awake.

"Oh, fate, thou art a cruel bi-", began Noah, before:

Roar!

In Chef's kitchen, Chef was sleeping silently in a chair leaning against the counter top. A rope suddenly descended from a skylight in the roof, and Harold and Ezekiel shimmied down it.

They began crawling towards the freezer door. Harold still had several bites and cuts on his person from the shark attack, so was wincing at every step.

Finally, they got to the door. Ezekiel put a finger to his mouth, motioning them to go into the freezer. The two stood up, causing a miniscule creak of the floorboards to occur.

Chef woke up for an instant, muttering, "Why do the other kids get a pony?", before falling back asleep.

Ezekiel opened the freezer door, went inside for a moment, then returned with the key. Harold motioned them to go back to crawling to the rope.

Unfortunately, Harold, as he was bending down to a crawling position, rubbed against a serrated knife on the counter, right on one of his cuts.

Harold yelped out, waking Hatchet.

Soon, the two boys were running for their lives away from Chef, out the front door of the kitchen.

Cody was walking through the campgrounds, kicking at a littered tin can on the ground. "Stupid Noah.", said Cody. "Thought he was my friend."

He kicked the can higher, where it hit a wasp nest hanging from a tree. Cody grimaced as the nest rustled, only for nothing to happen. He then took out his wood carving, seeing that it was a bee's nest.

"Oh, of course.", said Cody, darkly, as he began walking towards the tree.

A white bunny was sitting on a stump somewhere in the woods, with a key wrapped around his neck. Eva walked up, raising an eyebrow at it. Suddenly, the bunny roared, it's mouth widening to impossible lengths, showing off rows and rows of sharp teeth.

Eva was unimpressed, as spittle from the monster bunny's mouth hit her in the face. She almost lazily punched the bunny in the nose, grabbing the key as it flew away.

Eva turned to Courtney, who already had her key, and grinned.

Cut back to the amphitheater, where Chris is overlooking the congregating campers. "Greetings, campers!", said Chris, no longer using his pirate voice. "Everyone who has a key, step forward to claim your prize."

Sadie, who was just walking up, said, "Oops, I forgot all about the challenge." She looked at her wood carving, seeing a snake written on it. "Wow, I'm sure glad I didn't have to fight a snake." She chuckled to herself, as the camera panned to a glaring Beth, DJ, Gwen, Tyler, and Harold.

"Hey, wait a minute, where are Cody and Geoff?", said Chris, noticing that the two were missing.

Cut to Geoff still in the septic tank. "Oh, for the love of everything holy, where is that key?"

Cut back to the theater, where Cody slowly walks in. He is covered in bee stings, and due to his allergies, is puffed up to inhuman degrees.

"Cody, are you OK?", said Noah, worried.

"What do you care?", snapped/slurred Cody, walking up to the treasure chests.

Noah put on a face that said he didn't care, and walked to a treasure chest. Soon after, he tried every key in every treasure chest. Finally, he asked Chris, "Why isn't my key opening any of these?"

"Oh, I forgot to tell you guys, some of the keys don't open anything.", said Chris, mischievously.

"What?! You mean I risked my life against a bear for this?", said Noah, throwing the dud key to the ground.

Cody laughed harshly at Noah, as he fit his key into the correct lock. He opened the chest and pulled out... a stick of deodorant.

Meanwhile, Eva and Courtney both got a lamp and a bowling ball respectively.

Ezekiel put his key in the lock, opening it up to reveal...

"No way!", he yelled, pulling out a gift basket with a card of invincibility on it.

"Way to go, Zeke!", said Harold, high-fiving his buddy.

Ezekiel looked to Sadie, only to see her glaring at him once again. He sighed in response.

(Tyler): Looks like Sadie is going down!

(Harold): I'm sorry, Zeke, but I vote Sadie.

(Courtney): I heard Gwen saying to Beth that she was voting Sadie, so I advised Eva to do the same. Just so long as there isn't a big target on our backs, I'm fine.

Cut to the end of the campfire ceremony, with Noah, Eva, Courtney, and Sadie as the last few contestants who have yet to receive a marshmallow.

"And the final marshmallows goes to... Noah, Eva, and Courtney!", said Chris, quickly, leaving Sadie out to dry.

Sadie stood up in shock. "But, why me?", she said to her former campmates.

"Sorry, Sadie.", said Chris, nonchalantly. "Dock of Shame's that a way."

As Sadie began to trudge in despair to her appointment with the boat of losers, a voice rang out.

"Wait!", yelled out Ezekiel. He held out his invincibility basket. "I give up my invincibility and give it to Sadie. I will take her place on the Boat of Losers."

Everyone gasped in shock, most of all Sadie. "Zeke, you... you don't have to do that.", said Sadie.

"Yeah, Zeke, you don't.", said Harold, just as shocked.

Ezekiel walked up to Sadie. "No, I do. Because... because I love you Sadie, and I want you to win for your best friend."

Sadie smiled sweetly. "No, I'll win for both you and Katie.", she said, leaning in closer to Ezekiel.

Just as they were about to lock lips, Chris appeared between them. "Hate to break up this love fest, guys, but Ezekiel, the boat of losers..."

Sadie kicked Chris in the shins, sending him down, as she kissed Ezekiel full on the lips, as Beth 'awed'.

Cut to Ezekiel boarding the boat of losers, waving to Sadie. Sadie and Harold waved back from the dock, as Ezekiel disappeared into the dark.
