Treasurer Hunter

Chapter 17: Revived

6 days later

Jakes point of view

We all sit crowded around the tv. Every contestant is here but Luca. Luca of course is still bruised and in hospital. Rhiannon seemed to be fine. I was so worried about her you wouldn't not believe. Caden Smith comes back on interrupting my thoughts. "Only 1 more day folks Till the finnally of the Treasure games. This stage is going to be one of the most vicious stages. As only the best 7 contestants are left. So in case you didn't hear the stage will be a water stage with only a few strips of land. But there are a few suprises so don't forget. Also we have the votes and the three contestant zombified or let back into the game are Luke a career tribute killed by Max. careers female career this one killed by Jake. And finnaly are last contestant Daniel Jakes alliance until he was killed by Liam. Okay then those are our three contestants revived. That means 10 contestants. They will be revived a minute before the show starts. I am Caden Smith and that was your update." My mouth is hanging out so wide after the update. Do I team up with Daniel the boy I met the first day of the show or do I stay with Rhiannon, Max, and Sarah. I know that Rhiannon is after all the careers and Luca. Max and I are going to be chased by all the careers and Darren. This round was going to be challenging.

I was so deep in my thoughts I barely noticed when Rhiannon beckoned me to follow. Luxe had vanished and Sarah and Darren were on the sofa still watching tv. I walked after her. I follow her all the way on to the roof. It is covered with gorgeous plants and a pathway. She walks a little further and sits down on a bench. I sit down after her my eyes looking into hers as she studies the view of the city and the gorgeous ocean. Florida is so beautiful. That is where our final stage is.

Rhiannon grabs my hand and leans forward. I lean towards her and are Lips meet. She whispers 5 words "Thank you for saving me." Fireworks explode in my head as she pulls back still clutching my hand. We stare at the view in silence. It is mesmerizing but still can't keep my mind away from Rhiannon. With her black slightly curled hair, and her skin tone darker than mine, and her lips always in a smile. She is irresistible. I have never kissed a girl till now but I am pretty sure there usually aren't fireworks in your head.

I have made up my mind. Sorry Daniel but no alliance. After ten minutes of silence I whisper a "Thank you," and then head down to my bed. The show was tommorow and I needed my rest.

The Next Day

Still, Jakes Point of view

I yawn sleepily half opening my eyes. It takes about a minute but my eyes get used to the brightness and I walk to the burrow in the corner of my room and pull a Patriots shirt out. It is a sports shirt and made for running. It is dark blue and has long sleeves. It feel like nothing is even on my shoulders. It Is so airy and light. The perfect shirt for the game show.

I stretch out my arms and legs on the way to the bathroom. I brush my teeth then head to my departure pad. I slept till 9:30 and needed to be at the launching pad by 10:00. I run over and find the other contestants all there. They sit on the sofa waiting for the elavator that takes us up one by one. First Luca is called then Darren and then me. I walk from the elavator to my bridge then run across it not trusting the swaying of the ropes. I get to my area a small little rock.

I watch as on by one the other contestants take there spots. Once everyone is here I expect the countdown to start. But instead three more tributes came through, Lumen, Daniel and the third guy who I forgot his name. Only when they are in there spots does the countdown begin. "60, 59, 58......27, 26, 25, 24.....10, 9, 8, 7, 6, 5, 4, 3, 2, 1 Gooooooo! I dash off onto my bridge the ground that I had been waiting on crumbled.

I reach the center and watch as Luca grabs his sword and slams it down into Luke's bridge. The bridge sways to one side causing Luke to stumble. Luca swings again hitting the other side of the bridge causing Luke to plummet 200 feet down to his death. The cannon booms right as I reach the center. Luca grabs a pack the sprint off towards the ocean. I don't bother to chase him but grab 2 packs my weapon and sprint off towards the ocean. Leaving the battle in my dust. I head toward the island where we agreed to meet up.
