Survivor (Chapter 3)!

Chapter 3: A Strike of Evil

 

Hey guys, Raven here!

As you can tell by the title of this post, this isn’t an Ausia event post, those will be up tomorrow. Instead, I have chapter 3 of Survivor for you guys! My stories will be up every Thursday/Friday depending on your timezone, but I had to put this one up today due to some holiday stuff happening. But all of this message aside, I hope you enjoy this chapter after an extremely long wait, and I apologize if this chapter caused any…raging (WARNING: Tes and Nickle, this possibly will apply to you more than anybody else, and you’ll see why.)! If you want to read the previous 2 chapters, it should be in the comments on the Stories page. Kthxbai!

RC and I look at each other, our mouths gaped open with shock. I look back over at Cece, and after a long silence, I finally say something. “Well… what are you waiting for, bring it over here! And quickly, its already getting bright out.” Cece quickly dashes back into the tall trees of the forest, and soon comes out with a small, blue tape. “Okay, we’re good now…let’s bring it back to camp.” RC does a quick whistle for Purple and Abby to come back, and the 5 of us run back to camp.

“Great…everyone is asleep.” Cece mutters as we step foot into our campsite. Purple and Abby walked past us, smiled, and went over to Tes and Nickle, shaking them awake. Cece whistles in Morde’s ear, and RC was prodding Guido and Shad to get up. I quickly run up to the front of the campsite with the recording, and as soon as everyone is starting to sit up, I announce our find.

“Hey everyone, we found the tape recording!”

RC comes up to the front with me, and everyone else makes a small arc around us. “Well, play it already, I want to know whats on it!” Abby starts, her eyes filled with curiosity.

I sigh and answer, “Once we listen to it, you know that things are going to change, correct?” RC nods in agreement. “She’s right. Are you sure we should actually listen to this…thing?”

Purple is clearly on Abby’s side. “Well if it gets us any closer to getting us off this stupid island, then of course let’s listen to it. NOW.” Well, let’s get this over with.. I think. Breathing nervously, and my heart pounding, I press the ‘play’ button on the device. It begins to speak, in a dark and ferocious voice…

“Hello, islanders. You were all put on this island for a reason- that reason, to kill. One by one, you all will die, and one by one, you all will try to arise above your fellow campers. Some of you will be given weapons, others will get different strategies to kill their opponents. However, all of you, will still rise to the top, and then fall. You are now all on your own. You must all find food, water and shelter to survive. Let it begin.” The recording then makes a light beeping noise, and says, “End of recording.”

There is another long silence among all of us. I stare at Morde, whos face had suddenly brightened. “You know what we should do?” he suggests, “Just not kill anyone. We won’t get off this island, but at least nobody will have to die.” Everyone turns to look at him and smiles at his idea.

“Yeah, if he sees that we aren’t killing anybody, he might just…let us go. We aren’t going to go his way. We can rise above him.” Guido grins. Now everyone had smiles on their faces. “Yeah!” we all said. “Now. Why don’t we go grab some food or water or something? All of that could make a difference.”

“But guys… what if he’s watching us? What if this dude on the tape is being the stalker he is and making sure we kill each other, and…what if he just kills us off?” Purple stammers nervously all of the sudden. All of us laugh at the young girl’s remark.

“Pssh! He can’t do that!! Now, let’s just go and get some stuff, and leave this conversation behind.” Nickle giggles as two or three of us snicker once more.

“Maybe not right away…”

Soon, all of us are walking out of the campsite, as if we had lived here all of our lives. All of the others go in seperate directions from me. A little while after everyone had left, I heard footsteps coming my way. I turn to see who I think is Guido. “Oh, I didn’t see you there…” I say, giving a small smile and maybe even blushing a little.

“Why don’t you kill just one person, Rave..? Then we could be together…” he tells me. Wait…that isn’t something Guido would say. I look at him with confusion, deciding to argue back.

“What are you talking abou-” I begin to say, before he disappears into thin air. “Huh? Where’d he go..? I’m not killing anybody, we already agreed.”

“But…what if you were doing it for me?” he replies, somehow reappearing behind my back. I quickly try to snap him out of it by slapping him in the face, but he fades away before my eyes. Oh, no wonder. Someone’s trying to trick me..

“I can’t.” even though someone is trying to fool me, I still have to prove to “Guido” I don’t want to, and these people I was stuck with were great friends of mine, even though I barely knew them. “I’m just…too good.”

“What about those strategies you always come up with? Could they get some use out? Hm?”

No. I argue to myself, continuing to fill up a large leaf with water. But…for you, I’d do anything. “Fine. But only to get to know you better.” “Guido” then nods, and fades away once more, hopefully for good. Grabbing my leaf, which is filled to the brim with water, I make my way back to camp.

“Hey, what’s up?” Shad says in an…innocent voice. Oh how wonderful. First I see a ghost thing, and now my brother is acting weird? SERIOUSLY?! I lay my blanket next to Guido’s and Shad’s blankets, and lie down on it. I glance over behind the tent and realize that there is a canteen there. So THAT’S why Shad was acting awkward. Don’t tell me Morde’s idea is already going downhill. Then, Guido and Tes walk past each other, groaning as they do so. Them, too? Maybe everyone just isn’t in a good mood… I snap out of my thinking as Guido, the real one this time, walks past Tes and towards me.

“Hi, Raven.” he smiles at me as I look up at him. He’s blushing a little bit more than I had when the fake Guido had come to me.

“Oh, hey..”

“I’ll be there to protect you. I just wanted you to know that, since we are kind of stuck here in this stupid place and all.”

“I thought we all agreed that we weren’t going to fight or kill anyone.”

“If it ever comes to that point, you definitely aren’t on my death list.”

I smile at him as he lays on his blanket. Staring around camp, I see the other campers are laying on their blankets and napping too, probably after a long journey back to camp. Finally, I take one last glance at the sleeping Guido and Shad before I fall into a deep sleep myself.

A few hours later..

“Hey, RC, may I talk to you?” I manage to open my eyes. Tes and RC are wandering out of camp. Where could they be going right now? Hopefully nowhere suspicious… Trying not to wake anybody up, I crept off my sleeping space and into a bush. There, in the middle of a large meadow, are Tes and RC. “Look, Ravenclaw. I really like you, and I just wanted to know if you like me too.” My eyes widen as I listen to Tes. Damn, a bit unexpected…

“Oh, Tes. I have a boyfriend back where I live named Barry.”

“Hey, I’m married to a girl I know named Alicia…but if you ever need anybody, I’ll be open.”

Wow…he really means it? Isn’t that a bit too far? “Tes, I don’t think I’ll ever need another love life. I have Barry.” I glance around at the scenery for a little bit, and see another person walking up to them. It was Nickle. “Come on, we can have our fun while we’re stuck here.” He began moving a little closer to her.

“Dude, she said no, so back off.” Finally, Nickle had decided to join the argument. RC slowly backed away as the two guys bickered and fought. Suddenly, a fist fight erupted. “I don’t want any trouble, so just leave.” Nickle snarled.

“Make me.” Tes pounced on top of Nickle and the two punched, kicked, bit and made rude remarks towards each other. RC was now leaning against a tree, trying not to take any damage. After a while, she’d had enough.

“That’s it, I’m leaving!” she yelped at Tes and Nickle as she immediatly ran back to camp.

“Now look what you did, you made me look bad in front of her!” Tes pinned him to the ground, enraged and aggravated at what he’d just done. Nickle rolled his eyes and swiftly knocked Tes off him.

“Well, its not like she’d go for this big camel hump standing in front of me.” the youngster countered.

Tes was now more annoyed than ever. “WHAT did you just call me?” He now looked like a tomato, as his face was literally turning red in anger.

“A big camel hump.”

“Say that again, and you are screwed, man.”

“Big…camel…hump.” Nickle whispered in Tes’ ear. Oh crap… I slammed my eyes shut, and not bearing to see what happened, I heard a Bang!, Clatter!, and one last scream from Nickle. “You messed with the wrong person.” Tes growled, gritting his teeth. When I unlocked my closed eyes and looked at where the three islanders had been, I saw the most horrific sight.

There, in a pool of blood, lay Nickle, a sword stabbed into his chest.
