Alex's POV
I was eating cake and watching The Simpsons on my laptop.
Scarlett was sitting across from me typing something on an iPad.
The loudspeaker turned on
"Attention fellow passengers!" Blaineley said "Feeling alone in the game? Looking for an ally you can call your very own? Then consider joining forces with me! You won't regret it! This promise is not legally binding, offer may be withdrawn at any time".
"Nobody cares!" Scarlett yelled, throwing one of her shoes at the intercom.
It knocked it off the wall.
"Poor intercom" I muttered
"We need to send Blaineley home" Scarlett said to me
"She is super annoying" I agreed. "And since she doesn't really know anyone here, she won't be able to make many alliances, so I doubt she'll be able to convince many people to vote with her."
"So, we vote for her next elimination?" Scarlett asked
"definitely."

The plane landed and we got out before standing beside the great wall of China.
I snapped a few pictures on my phone before wishing my mom was there to take better pictures.
"Ni hao! Welcome to China! A country rich in history, culture, and, delicious sauces!" Chris announced "Our first challenge is torn right from the pages of her rich history! In eight billion BC king Dimsum lead a battalion of donkey warriors down this very great wall!"
"Eight million BC was the Mioncene era! There were dinosaurs!" Scarlett said.
"Yeah, what she said" Chris said, glaring at her for a moment "We've supplied a selection of vehicles to race to you. It's first come, first serve! It's the Chinese way! Ready, set-".
His phone rang and he picked it up.
"Oh for the love of Loki" I muttered.
"McLean here. Yeahhhh, I'm trying to do a show" he said.
"Can we go or what?" Heather asked
"Mm hm. Yeah." Chris said.
"Yeah, we go?" Alejandro asked
"Yeah, can we do this later?" Chris asked in annoyance
"So we go now?" Duncan asked.
"OK, FINE!" Chris exclaimed
The others started running. Scarlett and I didn't.
"HEY WHO SAID YOU COULD GO?" Chris yelled "Well fine! There were a few things I was going to warn you about, but... forget it!"
He turned To Scarlett and I.
"At least some people know when I'm talking on the phone" he said with an eyeroll "Anyway, I was going to tell you that you don't need to use on of the vehicles, this isn't the main challenge, and there are many, many, many bombs!"
"Thanks for the warning" I said, before Scarlett and i started running.
We soon caught up to the others.
"Cody, get ready to rock the rickshaw! It is so mine!" Heather said.
"I don't see a vanity plate on it girlfriend" Blaineley smirked.
I'm sorry, what? Was that an insult? I'm confused now.
"Stop breathing down my neck! or get a mint already!" Heather snarled
