Chris tells us to meet at the Amphitheater again for our challenge.

I swear if he makes us do another torture challenge I will throw him off the cliff.

I sit next to Duncan on the bleachers. He looks at me and smiles, and he takes my hand.

Chris says we are having a treasure hunt. We have to draw a location of a key, find it, and return with it to open a chest.

I reach into the hat and I pulled out a picture of a key inside of a fire.

"You got the easiest one I see." Chris says.

Score.

Duncan gets one in a ring of fire.

I feel bad for Geoff, he got one in the septic tank.

DJ got in a tree, Heather got in Chefs fridge, Izzy got one with a snake, Owen with a bear, Lindsey with a beehive, Leshawna in between alligators, Bridgette with a rabid bunny, Gwen with Skunks, and Trent with Sharks..

Damn. Im lucky.

We all set out to find our keys.

I walk over to the campfire pit where the elimination ceremony takes place.

It is usually out, but this time it is lit.

I see a fire retardant box in the middle of the fire. That must be where the key is.

I walk out into the dock and to the life guard chair, where there is a bucket stored under it.

I fill the bucket up with lake water and I walk back to the fire where my key is located.

I poor the water on it, causing it to go out. I pick up the box, but it was still a little heated from the fire.

I push it with my foot to the edge of the shore and into the lake water for it to cool.

The box cools off and I open it to retrieve my key. I place the box back into the pit to show my victory here.

I walk to the cabin to play a little guitar before we are required to meet back up and unlock the chest.

Outside of the cabins is a huge Ring of Fire. In the center of the ring, there is a key dangling.

Duncan jumps through the ring an grabs the key flawlessly.

"You could've just put the fire out with water to make it easier." I say to Duncan like smart ass I am.

"It wouldn't be as fun if I did that." He responds walking to me.

I twirl my key on my finger as I walk into the cabin. I place the key in my back pocket and I reach for the acoustic.

Out side of the cabin I hear Bridgette's scream. I watch Bridgette run away from the rabid bunny.

Wow.

I walk outside of the cabin with the guitar slung around my shoulders.

I walk back to the beach to see Trent do his attempt for his key.

"Smart thinking." I tell him as he gets out of the lake.

"Haha. I am just glad I didn't Ge the one in Chefs fridge. Chef will total behead Heather." Trent replies.

"So Trent, talk to me. Do you like anyone here at camp?" I ask him, hoping he would say Gwen.

"Well yeah, but you better not tell anybody!" He warns me.

"I won't, I won't, so who is it?"

"I can't get my mind off of Gwen." He admits.

"Well Trent, I got some news for you, Gwen likes you too." I give him the word.

"You better not be messing with me about this! Or I will ruin you at Hillton!" Trent freaks.

"Woah Trent. What do I have to gain by tricking you? We are good friends, Gwen and I are good friends. And she asked me to come and find out if you like her." I say scared.

"What should I do?" Trent asks.

"Go and help her with her key." I suggest.

"Alright. Thanks Syler." Trent says as he walks off.

I have nothing else to do, so I decide to walk to around and play the guitar.

I walk into the kitchen and I see Chef reading a magazine. Behind Chef I see Heather tip toeing to the fridge.

Time for some torment.

"Hey Chef! Listen to this part of a song I found for Heather." I tell Chef. Heather freezes and looks at me. Chef looks up and nods his head.

I clear my throat am I start to play 'Mean' by Taylor Swift.

"All you are is mean, and a liar, and pathetic, an alone in life and mean, and mean, and mean. But someday ill be living in a big old city, and all your ever going to be is mean"

I stop an I smile. Chef applauded and Heather glares at me.

"Chef, I think you left your fridge door open." I tell Chef as I begin to walk out.

I love torturing Heather.

I walk around and I play "Here's to Never Growing Up" by Avril Lavine.

I reach the beach when I end the song and I begin to walk along the shore.

I walk along as I try and think of another song.

Then it hits me.

"You and I" by One Direction It is my all time favorites.

I reach the chorus, which is my favorite part.

"You and I, we don't want to be like them. We will make it to the end.
Nothing will come between you and I.
Not even the Gods above, can separate the two of us.
Nothing can come between you and I."

I stop playing when I hear a blood curdling scream.

I look a head and I see Lindsey being chased by bees. She jumps into the lake.

I walk back to the cabin to put the guitar back in the case, and I run into Duncan.

"You wanna go take a walk on the shore?" He asks while pointing to the lake.

"Yeah." I answer.

We walk down the lake playing "who would you kiss." Like if both of us never existed in these situations.

"Ok, Noah or Tyler?" Duncan asks me while holding my hand.

"Tough one. They are both the same. Probably Noah." I respond. "Gwen or Bridgette?" I ask him.

"Probably Gwen. Bridgette is more of Geoffs type. I don't like suffer chicks." Duncan answers. "Geoff or Owen?"

"Do I really need to answer that? Of course I would pick Geoff. Owen is just.... Owen...." I respond. "Heather or Lindsey?"

"Speaking of Heather...." Duncan trails off while pointing a head of the dock.

I look forwards and I see Heather and Trent kissing.

"Oh no bitch." I say as I walk up to them. I pull them apart and I start to chew Trent out.

"What happened to want you told me earlier!?" I asked Trent.

"She kissed me first." Trent says while pointing at Heather.

She does this prissy wave at me.

I grab her arm and I twist it behind her back.

"Do not go around and start stealing Gwen's man." I say as I trip her into the lake.

She surfaces and spits out water.

"You will pay for that Syler... If that is even you real name!" Heather yells.

I walk back over to Duncan who was waiting for me.

"I had to do Trent a favor." I tell Duncan.
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~

It is time we open up all the chest.

I try my key until I find the right chest. Wen I open the chest, I find a large gift basket, tons of bottles of sparkling water, and fruit.

Score. Again.

Everyone else got lame stuff, but Heather got a gift basket with invincibility.

Damn. Now we can't vote her off.

I walk to the cabin to find a hiding spot for the treasure from the girls.

After I find the perfect place, It is time to head to elimination.

I walk to the confessional to cast my vote.

/"Since that twig Bitch Heather got Invincibility, I have no other choice. Sorry Trent, you screwed up."/
*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*

"Duncan, Syler, Leshawna, Bridgette, Izzy, Geoff, Owen, Heather, DJ," Chris called.

Everyone received a marsh mellow.

Except for Trent.

Trent was very shocked. Leshawna explained about what she did that caused him to get voted off.

Gwen confronts Trent and they settle the while problem.

"Awwww, isn't that adorable?" I say.

"Nothing is adorable." Duncan replies.

I look at him.

"Except for you." He finishes.

I kiss him and I head back to the cabin for bed.

I fall asleep while plotting on how to get Heather back.
