The Challenge: Total Madness

Crash Into Me

We get back from the double elimination of Josh and Aneesa and I could not feel happier in this damn bunker even if Christian was here with me. I feel like the final is coming up soon and I stand a great chance at not only making the final, but winning the whole thing. I am currently sitting in a good spot with an alliance with Kyle, Melissa, and Jenny, an alliance with Fessy, Nelson, and Cory, an alliance with Rogan and Kaycee, and a secret alliance with Bayleigh. We all now have our red skulls and I know it is now a matter of not getting into Purgatory. As far as I can see, it is going to be Rogan and DN or Fessy and Jenny going into Purgatory next.

My main alliance, Kyle, Melissa, and Jenny, meet up in our room to discuss what just happened and the steps we are wanting to take moving forward.

Jenny: It was a great outcome.

Syn: Yeah. It's all gonna come down to who makes this Tribunal. 

Kyle: Yep.

Syn: That's what it's all gonna boil down to, bro. Whatever the fuck this is, this next whatever-the-hell we do, we've gotta fucking win or we gotta make sure that someone in this room or something gets in. 

Kyle: Syn, if you win, this is what you're gonna do. Guy's day, you win, call me in. Me, I win, I call you in, then we're both safe. I know we're trying to look after a lot of people, but we need to look after--we're each other's number one. We need to look after each other.

Syn: 100%, 100%. 

Kyle: The girls will do the same, you know what I mean?

Syn: Mm-hmm.

Kyle: We'll try to also do the same.

Syn: Yeah.

Kyle: We just need to keep the numbers now.

Syn: Yeah.

Thinking about what Kyle has proposed to me, he is right, for once. Fessy, Cory, and Nelson will all look out for one another and Rogan is not going to look out for me or Kyle. Plus, without Kyle, I cannot win and same with Kyle. It sounds weird when I say that I cannot win if Kyle is no longer in the game, but let me explain the rationale behind the move. Kyle is going to get thrown in because he is someone the girls do not really want to run the final with, minus Melissa and Jenny. I am in the same boat as Kyle because while Kyle is perceived as the weakest, the guys will target me because I am perceived as the strongest guy.

Melissa and Jenny need to stick together because they are in the same situation as Kyle and I are in. I am glad my observations about Kyle, Melissa, and Jenny were right because they have proven to be huge assets to my game and we have all equally helped each other get to this point of the game. It feels nice to know that three people truly trust me this late in the game and I can say the same about them. Maybe the Brits are not so bad at this Challenge shit after all like Paulie said they were. Even Rogan is a beast of a competitor and while we are good now, we still have the weakest relationship besides Kaycee and Bayleigh in this house.

We both are just waiting for the other to make a move against each other and I think it is time that I do it before Rogan has the opportunity to do so. It sucks knowing that I could be the reason why Rogan does not win a Challenge season again, but if it means that I win in the end, I hope Rogan knows it is strictly game with me. Everybody decides that we should go to bed to prepare for the possible last Challenge of the season before the final. I need to win this Challenge to ensure my safety and guarantee Kyle's safety as well. Kyle and I definitely have come a long way.

The next morning, we wake up and hear the sirens go off and see the lights flashing, indicating that it is indeed time to get ready and head to today's Challenge site. As we are walking up to the challenge site, I see bungees, barrels stacked 3 high, and a car that looks like it came out of the movie screen of a Fast and Furious move and into Prague, Czech Republic. I know I am excited, but if anyone is more excited than me, it is Kyle. Kyle's dad is a car stuntman for a living and Kyle has always wanted to follow in the footsteps of his father. Now, thanks to the Challenge, he gets to live his childhood dream. TJ explains the rules of the challenge to us.
