"HUP HUP HUP, ONE TWO ONE TWO! PUT MORE ELBOW INTO IT!!!" About a mile west of where Eric and Hela had landed were Alexis and Sasha, who were busily attempting to erect their awesome tent, complete with solar panels, an A/C and a mini fridge. By the end of the setup, the girls were exhausted, and lay on the floor of their tent-of course with the air conditioner on.

"D'ya think anyone else has built their shelter yet?" Alexis wondered.

"Do you think I care? All I care about is winning that statue and moolah." Sasha snapped.

"WHAT ABOUT SURVIVING THE GAMES, HUH? IF WE DIE HERE SIS, WE WON'T REGENERATE!" Alexis fired back. The heat is getting to both of us, Alexis thought as Sasha humphed and said nothing. By nightfall, the sisters were comfortable and at ease, yet still on high alert, should any threat dare to enter their tiny fortress. Alexis was sleeping comfortably in her sleeping bag until she heard rustling outside her door and instantly awoke. Not bothering to grab a flashlight, but a blaster, Alexis ventured outside. What she saw were two shapes-moving near her water tank.

"HEY YOU! PUT YOUR HANDS WHERE I CAN SEE 'EM!" She shouted menacingly. It was a boy's voice who answered.

"Please don't kill us! I DON'T WANNA DIE YOUNG! I HAVEN'T EVEN GOTTEN TO DO HALF THE THINGS ON MY BUCKET LIST!!!!"

"What do you think you're doing?" Alexis asked the shape and regretted not bringing a flashlight to identify who was out there.

"Okay, we just wanted some water from your tank-" Another voice, this time a girl's admitted.

"And you thought you could take some without asking?"

"AW, C'MON WE DON'T EVEN HAVE A TENT!" Whined the boy.

"NEVER, NOT AS LONG AS I LIVE, GET AWAY FROM HERE BEFORE I SHOOT YOU ALL!" Alexis threatened, firing two shots into the ground to prove her point. She was satisfied when she heard the thieves' running footsteps and their whimpering as they sped away from her tent.

"AND DON'T COME BACK!"

When Alexis returned to her warm, safe tent, Sasha awoke.

"What was that all about?" She yawned sleepily.

"Nothin'." Alexis replied, and lost consciousness as soon as she zipped herself up.
