The Challenge

Someones going home

9:00 AM

The clock read when I woke up no one was in the room, I knew today was going to be pretty chill since the elimination was tonight, I especially knew there would be many alliances being formed in order to save their own skin.

Considering the boys challenge is tomorrow their all shaking well except Ct, Wes and Johnny. But it's understandable when you've played as many challenges as they have you can say you get pretty cocky.

I don't think any of them except Wes would be ashamed to admit that.

When I went down stairs to get some cereal all the milk was gone but what put back into the fridge and I know exactly who did it. "Johnny".

"What" he answered back.

"Come here for a sec". With my back turned still scanning the fridge for more food I could eat Johnny came up behind me and pulled my ponytail slightly forcing me to turn around and acknowledge him.

"Whatcha want Katy?"

"Throw the milk out". I stared at him with complete seriousness.

"That wasn't me". Johnny tried to say without smiling.

"You're a horrible liar" "you wanna know how I know it was you bananas?" He nodded. "Because you did this all the time on cutthroat" "and I yelled at you then too".

"Oh yeah" he said completely forgetting. He grabbed the carton of milk and walked off to the trash and came back empty handed.

"Thank you Johnny".

"Anything for you" I tried to hide the fact that my cheeks were slightly burning from the comment.

So I did the only reasonable thing to do and just swatted him away like a fly as I took out eggs to make some breakfast.

5 hours later

Like I said nothing happened today and thats not a surprise everyone is anticipating tonight and even if you're not competing you're still anxious.

You could see the two teams packed up bags laying on the ground near the entry way. That's the worst part it's not even the elimination it's packing your stuff.

Packing your stuff is such an emotional time for no apparent reason, I definitely cried going into my first elimination while I packed my bags.

I wore some black shorts and a large green tee shirt.

As we got on to the vans I could hear Paula crying as well as Robin, but I don't really care neither of them are people I necessarily like, so in that case I don't care who comes back from the elimination.

It's just a win-win situation for me and all the other girls.

Everyone piled out of the van and onto the bridges one side was the girls and the other side was the boys.

Tj was standing in the middle of "the jungle".

"Welcome everybody to your first elimination round this is the jungle" everyone cheered and clapped. "Now first order of business Adam decided he had punch someone in the face so Adam is out of here, there's a lot more yo a challenge than just winning challenges so Leroy I'm sorry man" oh my god I really don't want him to go home. "Buts it's your lucky night".

"YEAH" there was large applause and cheering once again.

"We brought in a replacement for you".

"Alright let me see him" Leroy yelled he look pretty happy.

This rather skinny nerdy guy walks in and we were all anticipating some jacked guy. "Hey newbie" Sarah shouted at him.

"This is Mike from the real world Las Vegas". "More importantly this is Leroy's new partner". "Welcome Mike". Leroy and him hugged once Mike jogged up the stairs and onto the boys bridge.

"Okay enough about the guys can i see Paula, Evelyn, Anessa and Robin down here".

"Okay girls tonight your playing hands on". "To begin each player is going to start on their platform leaning against their partner as leverage ". "I'm going to pull a lever and it will pull her platforms apart". "Im going to keep pulling that lever pulling them further and further apart until one teams falls into the mud and looses". "The other team will gets to go for the big money".

The girls stepped on the platform and I could already see Evelyn and Paula become unsteady. "Okay girls you ready go" Tj pulled the lever for the first time. Then again, everyone was still on. Again. Again. Again and this time Robin falls in.

Evelyn and Paula jump in the mud rolling in it enjoying their moment. I clap along with everyone else. They walked over to the other team and all shared sappy hugs.

"Alright Paula Evelyn congratulations you killed it you may return to the group".

"Anessa Robin, you tried but today it wasn't enough so enjoy your flight back".

When we got back to the house Paula and Evelyn immediately showered as they were covered head to toe in mud. I sat with Kenny on the couch until Wes came over and was trying to talk about the challenge tomorrow. After about 20 minutes Ct comes over.

"You have a fucking cauldron in your room and you're just stirring it up" Kenny laughed.

"What do you mean" Ct spoke.

"You're waiting for the right time to strike".

"What you talking bout I'm not like that no more man". "I mean I've got some many different options for certain different things depending on what happens". Kenny looks amused and Wes looks fed up by everything.

"What are you working at?"

"Other people think that you think you're the top dog and they're coming at you". Kenny laughed obnoxiously at Cts words. "I'm serious and it's gonna affect you".

"Yeah, we're fucking top dogs me and Wes". We got more champion belts than fucking hulk hogan".

"Ahh" Ct mumbled. "Because of that Kenny every time some other team looses I'm gonna convince them to vote for you". "You have a bad day you're going in".

"Ct stop" I said lowly.

"What I'm just being honest"

"Just stop".

"No no I wanna hear what he's saying cause is this some sales pitch that I should send you home early?"

"It's not a sales pitch all I'm
Saying is, I'm in the house bro". "You can't get rid of me". He says cockily. Wes has sat there in silence this whole time I feel he's bout to break. I can cut the testosterone with a knife right now and I don't like it.

"Im leaving there too much testosterone in this room" Kenny protests as I get up and walk to my room.

"What's got you all angry" Johnny teases.

"Don't test me Johnny".

"Why I just wanna know?"

"If you much Kenny and Ct are arguing and the cockiness and testosterone in that room was insane so I left". I shrugged.

"What we're they arguing about".

"Basically pitching sending each other home". I said I freshened up and headed back out of the room.
