(Rachel's POV)

Trying to steal from Justin was impossible. I was starting to think that I needed to go to Tanner for tips. Not only were people saying no when I asked them to join my army, but some of people wouldn't even give me a response at all.

Ben ran off screaming like a schoolgirl when I mention the words "Go against Justin" and when I broached the subject with Lucas he turned into a nervous mute and then asked me if I was wearing a wire.

Harry was the only person who had agreed to come on board and that was partly due to the fact that he didn't understand the question.

Maddy said she was in too but that was only because she was still one hundred and ten percent convinced that Justin slaughtered whales.

I needed Justin's top guys and as we boarded the bus for our next Fear Factor Stunt I decided to scout them out individually.

"Hi Rob!"

"Hey Rache"

I pushed Justin to the side and took the seat right next to Robert.

"So, how are you?" I smiled.

"I'm great and how are you?"

"Wonderful" I answered, "So do you want to join my army?"

I was blunt and I was direct but Rob wasn't taking me seriously.

"Sure... what are we fighting for?"

"Free will" I answered, "And I'm going to make us all wear 'I hate Justin' shirts"

"Sweet... Sign me up"

Justin knew that Rob was only humoring me so he smiled along with the conversation.

"I mean it Rob! Trust me my army is way better then the one you are in now. Ditch Justin and come on board with me!"

"Well... Justin your army doesn't offer free shirts..."

"That's true..." Justin acknowledged, "But we have Ben so we offer free security?"

"Very true" Rob thought, "Sorry Rache..."

"No wait!" I stopped him, "We also supply free dry cleaning for your free 'I hate Justin' shirts"

"Tempting..."

"Hey Rob," Justin spoke around me, "My army has been loyal to you for six years"

"True"

"But my army gives better health care," I decided, "And I look better in a bikini then Justin does!"

"I'll give her that," Justin nodded along, "But nobody pulls off the idiot hat like I do"

"And I will give him that"

"Thanks Rache,"

"You're welcome Justin"

"You two are weird..." Rob grinned.

"I'll ignore that comment and offer you free dental?"

"Justin" I rolled my eyes, "Dental is covered under health care!"

"Not always,"

"Really?"

"Oh yeah," he told me, "There are some screwed up insurance companies out there"

"Interesting..."

After a long conversation about the health care epidemic, I turned my attention back to Rob.

"Rob, I have a lot of attractive model friends...."

"Swimsuit models?" he asked.

I nearly had Rob's allegiance until Justin pulled an ace out of his sleeve.
