mindcrackloveChapter 3! I've been posting these rather inconsistently, oh well! Enjoy and as always feedback is appreciated and encouraged!
Previously, on Mindcrack Survivor Diffeithdir...
DocM confronted Kurt for voting him, making him cry...
After seeing this, Zisteau then decided to confront DocM, causing an argument between them...
At the immunity and reward challenge...
Elenyd continued their winning streak, sending Cambria to their 2nd tribal council in a row...
DocM thought he had the votes, but in the end...
It was he who was eliminated in a vote of 3-2.
~Cambria Day 7~
Etho:
So, Bdubs decided to flip last night, and eliminated Doc. Now I feel like him, Kurt, and Zisteau have an alliance leaving me on the outs. I need to do some serious work to save myself.
"That was an epic blindside you guys pulled off last night" said Etho. Etho had clearly lost some sleep the night before, there were bags under his eyes, and his silver hair looked like he had ran his hand through it at least a hundred times.
"Thanks, I'm just really grateful Bdubs flipped, or else I'd be a goner..." Said Kurt, laughing nervously.
"Hey man, it was no problem. I'd never vote you off Kurt." Said BdoubleO, very kind and sweet, patting the smaller man on the shoulder.
"Really? Thanks!" Said Kurt, his face lighting up with a smile.
BdoubleO:
It's only a matter of time till I vote off Kurt, he'll probably be my first target once merge comes along...
~Elenyd Day 7~
"I am... So hungry..." Said JustDefy, falling down onto the sand, in an over the top matter. JustDefy just continued laying there, looking up at the sky.
Guude:
JustDefy doesn't really help out that much at camp, he kinda just lays around and complains...
"My stomach is literally going to implode..." Said JustDefy, still complaining. This time making dramatic movements of grabbing onto his stomach.
Just then Pause and Beef returned from the river, Beef holding a small wooden bucket full of small fish.
"Who wants some food?!" Called out Beef excited.
"Yes!" JustDefy hopped up and ran up to Pause and Beef. "How did you guys catch all of these?"
"Pause did really, he's a natural at it." Said Beef.
"Aw, thanks Beef! But you helped out too."
"Nah, you deserve all the credit man, really"
"D'aw, you're too kind to me Beefy!"
Beef:
So uh, yeah there's a little bit of flirting going on between Pause and I. Not gonna lie, I'm totally head over heels for the guy. I didn't know it was possible to like someone so much after knowing them for only a week!
Nebris:
Pause and Beef have gotten really close,
I'm fairly certain they hooked up and are just trying to keep it a secret...
Either way, they need to go. A couple is far too dangerous in this game, now it's just having to decide between them and Guude on who goes first...
~Reward Challenge Day 7~
"Alright guys, come on in!" Dadbee shouted out to the 2 tribes, and as per usual, they came out and stood on their teams mat.
"Elenyd getting your first look at the new Cambria tribe, DocM voted out at last nights tribal council..." Dadbee announced. No one from Elenyd was particularly shocked by Cambria’s desicion.
"Now then on to the challenge, today's challenge will be a series of 1 on 1 matches. Each team will select a player to go into the arena, the 2 players will have to try and push each other out of the arena. First team to 3 points win. Today's reward will remain a mystery." Dadbee said, explaining the rules to the outcasts.
"Elenyd, you got 2 extra players meaning you have to sit 2 of them out. Same people can't sit out in back to back challenges. Who's it going to be?" Asked Dadbee.
Guude stepped forward to say their team's choices.
"Nebs and Beef are gonna sit out today..." Said Guude.
"Alright, Nebris and Beef sitting out. With that done, let's get to the challenge..."
"First round, Pause is up for Elenyd, and Etho is up for Cambria... Survivors ready? Go!" Dadbee shouted out.
Pause and Etho both began trying to push the other out, Pause was physically taller and stronger than Etho. But Etho was quick and clever, Etho swung his leg at Pause in a hook like motion, knocking Pause off balance. While Pause was getting up, Etho attempted to push him out. Pause however, managed to grab Etho by the legs, pick him up, and physically toss him out of the arena...
"Alright, an intense first round. Pause scores a point for Elenyd! That's 1-0, we're playing to 3!" Dadbee announced.
"Next round, Guude for Elenyd is up against Zisteau for Cambria... Survivors ready? Go!"
Zisteau immediately ran up shoulder first and slammed into Guude, using enough brute force to literally send Guude flying out of the arena. Guude landed on his back, but not in a way that could cause any serious injuries.
"Wow, that was quick! Zisteau scores for Cambria, it's 1-1, next round!"
"Next we got, JustDefy for Elenyd, and BdoubleO for Cambria. Survivors ready? Go!"
JustDefy and BdoubleO ran up, locked hands and each began trying to push the other out. Their strength was almost perfectly equal, however JustDefy did have the slightest advantage.
"You look really pretty today, y'know that?" Whispered BdoubleO to JustDefy.
"Wait, what?" JustDefy lost focus, and BdoubleO took his chance, pushing JustDefy out of the arena.
"That's 2-1! Cambria now in the lead! Cambria now only needs 1 more point, and they'll finally win a challenge!" Dadbee announced.
"Next round, Baj for Elenyd, versing Kurt for Cambria... Survivors ready, go!"
Kurt ran up and tried to push back Baj, but despite being a bit of an elder, Baj was still easily able to overpower the smaller Kurt and immediately push him out of the ring, despite Kurt's hard work to try and stop him.
"Baj wins a point for Elenyd, we're all tied up! 2-2! Next point wins!"
"Heading out for the final round, we have Pause up for Elenyd, against Zisteau for Cambria. Whoever wins this point will win reward for their team... Survivors ready? Go!"
Zisteau tried to do the same thing he had done with Guude, and just use his physical strength to slam Pause out of the arena with 1 blow. Pause however anticipated this and adjusted his balance, as to lessen the blow of Zisteau’s attack.
Pause and Zisteau pushed each other back and forth, trying anything they could to win; Tripping, shoving, small jabs, Pause even tried slapping Zisteau on point.
"Pause and Zisteau both getting tired, neither of them giving up though! Announced Dadbee.
"C'Mon Z, do it!"
"I believe in you Pause, you got it!"
Both of the teams cheered for their teammates, Pause and Zisteau still not stopping.
Zisteau was getting extremely tired, and he knew he was going to lose soon. So he gathered up all the energy that was left in his body for one final push, screaming a war chant. Zisteau shoved Pause back, and Pause barely lost balance, tripping backwards and falling out of the ring.
"Zisteau wins! Cambria finally wins a challenge! This means, Cambria you win reward!"
Cambria cheered loudly, BdoubleO and Etho ran up and attempted to lift Zisteau on their shoulders, but realized he was to heavy to do such a thing and kinda just dropped him onto his bum.
"Now then, on to what your reward is. For reward, you won an exclusive trip to the Melincourt Falls, a spectacular 24 m tall waterfall. Here you can relax in the lake, enjoy the view of the waterfall, and in addition we'll provide an all you can eat Survivor Barbecue. Ribs, Chicken, Beer, all your desires." Said Dadbee announcing the prize.
Cambria jumped for joy as they heard that they could not only enjoy a stress free day at the lake, but more importantly got to eat as much as they wanted for their time at the Melincourt Waterfalls.
"As for you Elenyd, I’ve got nothing for you. You guys can head on back to your camp."
Etho:
I'm so glad we finally won a challenge, this gives me hope that we can win immunity too and save myself from elimination.
Nebris:
Us losing reward is fine, especially since Guude lost his round. It's just more ammo I have to eliminate him when the time comes...
~Cambria Reward Day 8~
Kurt:
So we arrived at the waterfall, and it was just amazing. The waterfall was so beautiful, the water itself was amazingly clear. But what was most beautiful, was the table of food...
The four members of Cambria sat at the wood table, each forgetting all of the manners they once had as they scarfed their faces with various barbecued items, and drank till their hearts content.
After they finished eating, they went for a swim in the lake. The water was incredibly clear, and felt amazing, it had definitely been the most stress-relieving thing they'd participate in up until this point in the game. Zisteau and Kurt had a small splash fight in the lake, which BdoubleO teased them about for the remainder of their time at the Falls.
Etho:
This was one of the best rewards so far, I'm so incredibly happy we won it. If everyone can just keep this energy up, I have no doubts in my mind we can win this next challenge.
~Elenyd Day 8~
Guude:
So when we got back from the challenge, everyone was a little upset about losing. But JustDefy seemed to take it way worse than most of us...
"Damn it man, I don't understand why we lost! We never lose! This is just such bull right now, I- I honestly can't even. I'm just going to go, rest my head, before I start yelling!" JustDefy said, already yelling rather loudly.
JustDefy walked away to the camp to lay down. Guude, Baj, and Nebris were collecting firewood, which left Pause and Beef alone by the beach.
"You're so cute Beef" Pause said, wrapping his arm around Beef's waist and resting his head on his shoulder.
"You're cuter Pause." Beef said in return, giving him a kind smile.
"I wish we could act this way all the time, like, in front of our team y’know. But then they'll think something is up and start to target us."
"Yeah, we gotta play this game strategically. As much as I'd love to be holding you in my arms all the time, we can't."
"Oh well, after one of us wins, then we can spend as much time with one another as we want"
"Yeah"
A small noise was heard from the bushes behind them, they both got up and went to check it out. However when they got to where the source of the noise came from, nothing could be found.
"It was probably just a rat or something" said Beef.
"Probably, hey you want to go fishing?" Asked Pause.
"Yeah man, sure."
Nebris:
Suspicions confirmed, Pause and Beef are together. I now have a one up on them, and I can use this information to my advantage. The only question now is how...
~Immunity Challenge Day 9~
"Alright everybody, come on in!" Dadbee called in the teams, and like every time he calls them in, they went and stood on their teams colored mat. Dadbee was wearing his normal outfit, his beard had small flowers braided into it, though no one really bothered asking why.
"For today's challenge, each team must choose 3 players to stand on this long balance beam. Once you fall off, you are out. Last team to have someone standing wins immunity. However, there is a catch, each team will have 1 person on the ground who can throw a ball at someone, every 5 minutes." Dadbee said.
"Sound simple enough?" Asked Dadbee. The 10 castaways nodded their heads.
"Elenyd, you have 2 extra members, you've got to sit 2 people out. You can not sit out the same people in back to back challenges, Beef and Nebris sat out in the last challenge. Who's it going to be?"
Guude stepped forward once again, "Baj and JustDefy are gonna sit this one out".
"Alright, let's get to the challenge then." Said Dadbee.
"Balancing for Elenyd, Beef, Nebris, and Pause. Balancing for Cambria, Etho, BdoubleO, and Kurt. Throwing for Elenyd is Guude, and throwing for Cambria is Zisteau. Now then, let's get started." Dadbee said.
The 6 men stood on the balance beam which raised about 10 feet above the ground, everyone seeming to be doing fine, except for Kurt who already looked like he was losing his balance.
"Alright throwers, you can throw your first ball." Announced Dadbee.
Guude picked up the small ball, it was covered in some kind of cloth. It was squishy, most likely made of rubber, but it still had some weight to it. Guude decided to take his opportunity and chuck the ball right at Kurt, it hit him dead in the stomach and Kurt fell backwards off f the balance beam.
"Kurt is off the beam, Elenyd is leading 3-2" said Dadbee.
Zisteau winded up his arm and launched the ball towards Pause, however Pause managed to catch the ball, and still maintain his balance.
"Nice try nerd!" Pause taunted Zisteau, sticking out his tongue for an added childlike effect. Zisteau just rolled his eyes in frustration.
Another 5 minutes passed, and still no one seemed to be having any trouble.
"Alright, throwers you can toss again." Said Dadbee.
Zisteau once again chucked the ball, this time aiming for Pause's legs, his ball flew true and hit its target. Pause tried to maintain his balance, swinging his arms around in a windmill type fashion, but fell off.
"Nice try, nerd." Zisteau said to Pause, a slight smirk on his lips.
Guude took his ball and aimed it at BdoubleO.
"C'mon now Guude, you wouldn't hit me, would you?" BdoubleO did his best job at making a pouty face without losing his balance.
"Hm, I guess I wouldn't" Guude lowered his arm, only to raise it again and throw the ball directly at BdoubleO's stomach knocking him off of the balance beam.
"What! You said you wouldn't hit me ya backstabber!" Yelled BdoubleO, a semi surprised and semi happy look on his face.
"I lied." Was Guude's terse response, though the smile on his lips was evident as he was giggling slightly to himself.
"Alright Elenyd still in the lead 2-1"
While balancing, a fly started to fly around Etho's head.
"Stupid fly, get away." Etho said, opening up his lips to try and blow the fly away. However, the fly managed to work its way in between Etho's lips and into his mouth, causing him to cough. Etho almost fell off while this was happening, but even through this he managed to keep his balance.
"That was disgusting..." Etho said, a grimace showing through his mask covered face.
"It makes for good protein though!" Was Beef's remark.
"Alright that's another 5 minutes, you can throw again." Said Dadbee.
Zisteau launched his ball right at Nebris, Nebris was hit and was falling off. However, since he was standing right next to Etho, he grabbed onto Etho’s arm and took him down with him.
"And with that, Elenyd wins immunity!" Announced Dadbee.
"Hey, he can't do that! That's cheating!" Yelled Zisteau.
"I never said he couldn't do that, so I'll allow it!" Said Dadbee.
Elenyd cheered for their 3rd immunity win in a row. Cambria of course just looked very upset and down about their loss.
"Elenyd, you win immunity, you can head back to your camp. As for you Cambria, I'll be seeing you at tribal council tonight." Said Dadbee.
Etho:
I really, really, really need to convince Kurt and Z to keep me tonight, or else I'm a goner...
Beef:
Winning is so great, I missed this feeling!
~Elenyd day 9~
Pause, Beef, Guude, and Baj sat in their shelter, while Nebris and JustDefy were off gathering more firewood.
"We destroyed that challenge!" Cheered Pause.
"I know! Hey, who do you guys think they're gonna vote off tonight?" Asked Guude, biting into a small fish that Pause had caught and cooked.
"I think Kurt is a goner tonight, he's awful at challenges." Said Baj, giving his input.
"I dunno man, I think Kurt and Z might be aligned or something, Z did look pretty mad when Guude hit him with the ball earlier today." Said Beef.
"Hm, maybe. But in that case my money’s on Bdubs going." Said Baj.
"Good riddance to him man, he's playing this game so hard, and he's using everything he's got to play it too." Said Guude.
"Yeah man, the way he's constantly flirting in challenges to try and win, he's definitely playing the game hard." Said Pause.
"Well, no matter who goes tonight, they’re screwed moving forward. We have double their team now." Said Guude.
"Definitely"
"No doubt"
"Mhm"
~Cambria Tribal Council Day 9~
Kurt, Zisteau, Etho, and BdoubleO walked in with their torches in hand, and took a seat.
"Welcome Cambria, to your 3rd tribal council. Let me just get this out of the way now, you have lost 4 out of 5 challenges. There's got to be a reason for that. Etho, do you think the other tribe is just, better than you?" Asked Dadbee.
"I don't think they're better than us, I just think there's a few, uh, kinks in our system. We're still trying to work 'em out" said Etho.
"It's day 9, after this elimination their team will be double the size of yours. Don't you think the kinks should have been worked out by now?"
"Maybe, but I think this vote will do just that." Said Etho.
"Alright, BdoubleO. You've been doing a lot of flirting in challenges, what's that all about?" Asked Dadbee.
"I'm just a flirty person Dadbee, I flirt with everyone. Girl, guy, old, young, hate me, like me, I don't care. I flirt with 'em" said BdoubleO, slightly eccentric, and flailing around his arms in a silly manner.
"Alright, and it has nothing to do with your strategy?" Asked Dadbee.
"My strategy is for me and my tribe to stay strong and safe. I really do care about these people sitting around me, and it hurts every time we have to vote someone off." Said BdoubleO, now in a more somber tone than before.
"Alright then, with that let's get to the vote. Kurt, you're up first tonight."
Kurt walked up to the urn, wrote down the name of the player he wanted to eliminate. And then put the paper into the urn. This same process was then followed by, Zisteau, Etho, and finally BdoubleO.
"Alright then, I will now go and collect the votes." Dadbee walked off, got the urn, and then walked back.
"When I am finished reading the votes, the person with the most votes will be eliminated, they must bring me their torch, and then leave immediately. With that now said, let's get to the votes."
"First vote... BdoubleO...
Next vote... Etho...
That's 1 vote BdoubleO, 1 vote Etho...
Third vote... Etho...
That's 2 votes Etho, 1 vote BdoubleO, 1 vote left...
...
...
3rd person voted out of Mindcrack Survivor Diffeithdir... Etho...
Etho that's 3 votes, that's enough. Bring me your torch."
Etho stood up, not at all surprised. He grabbed his torch and headed up to Dadbee.
"Etho, your tribe has spoken." Dadbee snuffed out Etho's torch.
"Good luck guys!" Etho turned around, giving his team a wave and a smile, before heading off”
"Well, you guys just voted off arguably your teams best player in favor of loyalty, only time will tell if that was a smart move. Good night."
Zisteau, Kurt, and BdoubleO headed out...
~Votes~
Kurt: I'm so, so sorry to be writing your name down. But Bdubs and Z are just so honest and kind, I have to vote you Etho.
Zisteau: Sorry Etho, you're really the only option tonight.
Etho: BdoubleO, I'm not sure what it is about you, but there's just something I don’t trust, and if Z and Kurt are smart, they’ll be voting you too.
BdoubleO: I've been waiting so long to write your name down, good bye Etho!
Previously, on Mindcrack Survivor Diffeithdir...
DocM confronted Kurt for voting him, making him cry...
After seeing this, Zisteau then decided to confront DocM, causing an argument between them...
At the immunity and reward challenge...
Elenyd continued their winning streak, sending Cambria to their 2nd tribal council in a row...
DocM thought he had the votes, but in the end...
It was he who was eliminated in a vote of 3-2.
~Cambria Day 7~
Etho:
So, Bdubs decided to flip last night, and eliminated Doc. Now I feel like him, Kurt, and Zisteau have an alliance leaving me on the outs. I need to do some serious work to save myself.
"That was an epic blindside you guys pulled off last night" said Etho. Etho had clearly lost some sleep the night before, there were bags under his eyes, and his silver hair looked like he had ran his hand through it at least a hundred times.
"Thanks, I'm just really grateful Bdubs flipped, or else I'd be a goner..." Said Kurt, laughing nervously.
"Hey man, it was no problem. I'd never vote you off Kurt." Said BdoubleO, very kind and sweet, patting the smaller man on the shoulder.
"Really? Thanks!" Said Kurt, his face lighting up with a smile.
BdoubleO:
It's only a matter of time till I vote off Kurt, he'll probably be my first target once merge comes along...
~Elenyd Day 7~
"I am... So hungry..." Said JustDefy, falling down onto the sand, in an over the top matter. JustDefy just continued laying there, looking up at the sky.
Guude:
JustDefy doesn't really help out that much at camp, he kinda just lays around and complains...
"My stomach is literally going to implode..." Said JustDefy, still complaining. This time making dramatic movements of grabbing onto his stomach.
Just then Pause and Beef returned from the river, Beef holding a small wooden bucket full of small fish.
"Who wants some food?!" Called out Beef excited.
"Yes!" JustDefy hopped up and ran up to Pause and Beef. "How did you guys catch all of these?"
"Pause did really, he's a natural at it." Said Beef.
"Aw, thanks Beef! But you helped out too."
"Nah, you deserve all the credit man, really"
"D'aw, you're too kind to me Beefy!"
Beef:
So uh, yeah there's a little bit of flirting going on between Pause and I. Not gonna lie, I'm totally head over heels for the guy. I didn't know it was possible to like someone so much after knowing them for only a week!

~Reward Challenge Day 7~
"Alright guys, come on in!" Dadbee shouted out to the 2 tribes, and as per usual, they came out and stood on their teams mat.
"Elenyd getting your first look at the new Cambria tribe, DocM voted out at last nights tribal council..." Dadbee announced. No one from Elenyd was particularly shocked by Cambria’s desicion.
"Now then on to the challenge, today's challenge will be a series of 1 on 1 matches. Each team will select a player to go into the arena, the 2 players will have to try and push each other out of the arena. First team to 3 points win. Today's reward will remain a mystery." Dadbee said, explaining the rules to the outcasts.
"Elenyd, you got 2 extra players meaning you have to sit 2 of them out. Same people can't sit out in back to back challenges. Who's it going to be?" Asked Dadbee.
Guude stepped forward to say their team's choices.
"Nebs and Beef are gonna sit out today..." Said Guude.
"Alright, Nebris and Beef sitting out. With that done, let's get to the challenge..."
"First round, Pause is up for Elenyd, and Etho is up for Cambria... Survivors ready? Go!" Dadbee shouted out.
Pause and Etho both began trying to push the other out, Pause was physically taller and stronger than Etho. But Etho was quick and clever, Etho swung his leg at Pause in a hook like motion, knocking Pause off balance. While Pause was getting up, Etho attempted to push him out. Pause however, managed to grab Etho by the legs, pick him up, and physically toss him out of the arena...
"Alright, an intense first round. Pause scores a point for Elenyd! That's 1-0, we're playing to 3!" Dadbee announced.
"Next round, Guude for Elenyd is up against Zisteau for Cambria... Survivors ready? Go!"
Zisteau immediately ran up shoulder first and slammed into Guude, using enough brute force to literally send Guude flying out of the arena. Guude landed on his back, but not in a way that could cause any serious injuries.
"Wow, that was quick! Zisteau scores for Cambria, it's 1-1, next round!"
"Next we got, JustDefy for Elenyd, and BdoubleO for Cambria. Survivors ready? Go!"
JustDefy and BdoubleO ran up, locked hands and each began trying to push the other out. Their strength was almost perfectly equal, however JustDefy did have the slightest advantage.
"You look really pretty today, y'know that?" Whispered BdoubleO to JustDefy.
"Wait, what?" JustDefy lost focus, and BdoubleO took his chance, pushing JustDefy out of the arena.
"That's 2-1! Cambria now in the lead! Cambria now only needs 1 more point, and they'll finally win a challenge!" Dadbee announced.
"Next round, Baj for Elenyd, versing Kurt for Cambria... Survivors ready, go!"
Kurt ran up and tried to push back Baj, but despite being a bit of an elder, Baj was still easily able to overpower the smaller Kurt and immediately push him out of the ring, despite Kurt's hard work to try and stop him.
"Baj wins a point for Elenyd, we're all tied up! 2-2! Next point wins!"
"Heading out for the final round, we have Pause up for Elenyd, against Zisteau for Cambria. Whoever wins this point will win reward for their team... Survivors ready? Go!"
Zisteau tried to do the same thing he had done with Guude, and just use his physical strength to slam Pause out of the arena with 1 blow. Pause however anticipated this and adjusted his balance, as to lessen the blow of Zisteau’s attack.
Pause and Zisteau pushed each other back and forth, trying anything they could to win; Tripping, shoving, small jabs, Pause even tried slapping Zisteau on point.
"Pause and Zisteau both getting tired, neither of them giving up though! Announced Dadbee.
"C'Mon Z, do it!"
"I believe in you Pause, you got it!"
Both of the teams cheered for their teammates, Pause and Zisteau still not stopping.
Zisteau was getting extremely tired, and he knew he was going to lose soon. So he gathered up all the energy that was left in his body for one final push, screaming a war chant. Zisteau shoved Pause back, and Pause barely lost balance, tripping backwards and falling out of the ring.
"Zisteau wins! Cambria finally wins a challenge! This means, Cambria you win reward!"
Cambria cheered loudly, BdoubleO and Etho ran up and attempted to lift Zisteau on their shoulders, but realized he was to heavy to do such a thing and kinda just dropped him onto his bum.
"Now then, on to what your reward is. For reward, you won an exclusive trip to the Melincourt Falls, a spectacular 24 m tall waterfall.

Etho:
I'm so glad we finally won a challenge, this gives me hope that we can win immunity too and save myself from elimination.
Nebris:
Us losing reward is fine, especially since Guude lost his round. It's just more ammo I have to eliminate him when the time comes...
~Cambria Reward Day 8~
Kurt:
So we arrived at the waterfall, and it was just amazing. The waterfall was so beautiful, the water itself was amazingly clear. But what was most beautiful, was the table of food...

Etho:
This was one of the best rewards so far, I'm so incredibly happy we won it. If everyone can just keep this energy up, I have no doubts in my mind we can win this next challenge.
~Elenyd Day 8~
Guude:
So when we got back from the challenge, everyone was a little upset about losing. But JustDefy seemed to take it way worse than most of us...
"Damn it man, I don't understand why we lost! We never lose! This is just such bull right now, I- I honestly can't even. I'm just going to go, rest my head, before I start yelling!" JustDefy said, already yelling rather loudly.
JustDefy walked away to the camp to lay down. Guude, Baj, and Nebris were collecting firewood, which left Pause and Beef alone by the beach.

"Yeah, we gotta play this game strategically. As much as I'd love to be holding you in my arms all the time, we can't."
"Oh well, after one of us wins, then we can spend as much time with one another as we want"
"Yeah"
A small noise was heard from the bushes behind them, they both got up and went to check it out. However when they got to where the source of the noise came from, nothing could be found.
"It was probably just a rat or something" said Beef.
"Probably, hey you want to go fishing?" Asked Pause.
"Yeah man, sure."
Nebris:

~Immunity Challenge Day 9~
"Alright everybody, come on in!" Dadbee called in the teams, and like every time he calls them in, they went and stood on their teams colored mat. Dadbee was wearing his normal outfit, his beard had small flowers braided into it, though no one really bothered asking why.
"For today's challenge, each team must choose 3 players to stand on this long balance beam. Once you fall off, you are out. Last team to have someone standing wins immunity. However, there is a catch, each team will have 1 person on the ground who can throw a ball at someone, every 5 minutes." Dadbee said.
"Sound simple enough?" Asked Dadbee. The 10 castaways nodded their heads.
"Elenyd, you have 2 extra members, you've got to sit 2 people out. You can not sit out the same people in back to back challenges, Beef and Nebris sat out in the last challenge. Who's it going to be?"
Guude stepped forward once again, "Baj and JustDefy are gonna sit this one out".
"Alright, let's get to the challenge then." Said Dadbee.
"Balancing for Elenyd, Beef, Nebris, and Pause. Balancing for Cambria, Etho, BdoubleO, and Kurt. Throwing for Elenyd is Guude, and throwing for Cambria is Zisteau. Now then, let's get started." Dadbee said.
The 6 men stood on the balance beam which raised about 10 feet above the ground, everyone seeming to be doing fine, except for Kurt who already looked like he was losing his balance.
"Alright throwers, you can throw your first ball." Announced Dadbee.
Guude picked up the small ball, it was covered in some kind of cloth. It was squishy, most likely made of rubber, but it still had some weight to it. Guude decided to take his opportunity and chuck the ball right at Kurt, it hit him dead in the stomach and Kurt fell backwards off f the balance beam.
"Kurt is off the beam, Elenyd is leading 3-2" said Dadbee.
Zisteau winded up his arm and launched the ball towards Pause, however Pause managed to catch the ball, and still maintain his balance.
"Nice try nerd!" Pause taunted Zisteau, sticking out his tongue for an added childlike effect. Zisteau just rolled his eyes in frustration.
Another 5 minutes passed, and still no one seemed to be having any trouble.
"Alright, throwers you can toss again." Said Dadbee.
Zisteau once again chucked the ball, this time aiming for Pause's legs, his ball flew true and hit its target. Pause tried to maintain his balance, swinging his arms around in a windmill type fashion, but fell off.
"Nice try, nerd." Zisteau said to Pause, a slight smirk on his lips.
Guude took his ball and aimed it at BdoubleO.
"C'mon now Guude, you wouldn't hit me, would you?" BdoubleO did his best job at making a pouty face without losing his balance.
"Hm, I guess I wouldn't" Guude lowered his arm, only to raise it again and throw the ball directly at BdoubleO's stomach knocking him off of the balance beam.
"What! You said you wouldn't hit me ya backstabber!" Yelled BdoubleO, a semi surprised and semi happy look on his face.
"I lied." Was Guude's terse response, though the smile on his lips was evident as he was giggling slightly to himself.
"Alright Elenyd still in the lead 2-1"
While balancing, a fly started to fly around Etho's head.
"Stupid fly, get away." Etho said, opening up his lips to try and blow the fly away. However, the fly managed to work its way in between Etho's lips and into his mouth, causing him to cough. Etho almost fell off while this was happening, but even through this he managed to keep his balance.
"That was disgusting..." Etho said, a grimace showing through his mask covered face.
"It makes for good protein though!" Was Beef's remark.
"Alright that's another 5 minutes, you can throw again." Said Dadbee.
Zisteau launched his ball right at Nebris, Nebris was hit and was falling off. However, since he was standing right next to Etho, he grabbed onto Etho’s arm and took him down with him.
"And with that, Elenyd wins immunity!" Announced Dadbee.
"Hey, he can't do that! That's cheating!" Yelled Zisteau.
"I never said he couldn't do that, so I'll allow it!" Said Dadbee.
Elenyd cheered for their 3rd immunity win in a row. Cambria of course just looked very upset and down about their loss.
"Elenyd, you win immunity, you can head back to your camp. As for you Cambria, I'll be seeing you at tribal council tonight." Said Dadbee.
Etho:
I really, really, really need to convince Kurt and Z to keep me tonight, or else I'm a goner...
Beef:
Winning is so great, I missed this feeling!
~Elenyd day 9~
Pause, Beef, Guude, and Baj sat in their shelter, while Nebris and JustDefy were off gathering more firewood.
"We destroyed that challenge!" Cheered Pause.
"I know! Hey, who do you guys think they're gonna vote off tonight?" Asked Guude, biting into a small fish that Pause had caught and cooked.
"I think Kurt is a goner tonight, he's awful at challenges." Said Baj, giving his input.
"I dunno man, I think Kurt and Z might be aligned or something, Z did look pretty mad when Guude hit him with the ball earlier today." Said Beef.
"Hm, maybe. But in that case my money’s on Bdubs going." Said Baj.
"Good riddance to him man, he's playing this game so hard, and he's using everything he's got to play it too." Said Guude.
"Yeah man, the way he's constantly flirting in challenges to try and win, he's definitely playing the game hard." Said Pause.
"Well, no matter who goes tonight, they’re screwed moving forward. We have double their team now." Said Guude.
"Definitely"
"No doubt"
"Mhm"
~Cambria Tribal Council Day 9~
Kurt, Zisteau, Etho, and BdoubleO walked in with their torches in hand, and took a seat.
"Welcome Cambria, to your 3rd tribal council. Let me just get this out of the way now, you have lost 4 out of 5 challenges. There's got to be a reason for that. Etho, do you think the other tribe is just, better than you?" Asked Dadbee.
"I don't think they're better than us, I just think there's a few, uh, kinks in our system. We're still trying to work 'em out" said Etho.
"It's day 9, after this elimination their team will be double the size of yours. Don't you think the kinks should have been worked out by now?"
"Maybe, but I think this vote will do just that." Said Etho.
"Alright, BdoubleO. You've been doing a lot of flirting in challenges, what's that all about?" Asked Dadbee.
"I'm just a flirty person Dadbee, I flirt with everyone. Girl, guy, old, young, hate me, like me, I don't care. I flirt with 'em" said BdoubleO, slightly eccentric, and flailing around his arms in a silly manner.
"Alright, and it has nothing to do with your strategy?" Asked Dadbee.
"My strategy is for me and my tribe to stay strong and safe. I really do care about these people sitting around me, and it hurts every time we have to vote someone off." Said BdoubleO, now in a more somber tone than before.
"Alright then, with that let's get to the vote. Kurt, you're up first tonight."
Kurt walked up to the urn, wrote down the name of the player he wanted to eliminate. And then put the paper into the urn. This same process was then followed by, Zisteau, Etho, and finally BdoubleO.
"Alright then, I will now go and collect the votes." Dadbee walked off, got the urn, and then walked back.
"When I am finished reading the votes, the person with the most votes will be eliminated, they must bring me their torch, and then leave immediately. With that now said, let's get to the votes."
"First vote... BdoubleO...
Next vote... Etho...
That's 1 vote BdoubleO, 1 vote Etho...
Third vote... Etho...
That's 2 votes Etho, 1 vote BdoubleO, 1 vote left...
...
...
3rd person voted out of Mindcrack Survivor Diffeithdir... Etho...
Etho that's 3 votes, that's enough. Bring me your torch."
Etho stood up, not at all surprised. He grabbed his torch and headed up to Dadbee.
"Etho, your tribe has spoken." Dadbee snuffed out Etho's torch.
"Good luck guys!" Etho turned around, giving his team a wave and a smile, before heading off”
"Well, you guys just voted off arguably your teams best player in favor of loyalty, only time will tell if that was a smart move. Good night."
Zisteau, Kurt, and BdoubleO headed out...
~Votes~
Kurt: I'm so, so sorry to be writing your name down. But Bdubs and Z are just so honest and kind, I have to vote you Etho.
Zisteau: Sorry Etho, you're really the only option tonight.
Etho: BdoubleO, I'm not sure what it is about you, but there's just something I don’t trust, and if Z and Kurt are smart, they’ll be voting you too.
BdoubleO: I've been waiting so long to write your name down, good bye Etho!
