"Yes...." Camilla said, before stepping back. "I better get dressed for the task before I'm late." With those words, Camilla wiped her tears away, smiled, and headed back to the cabin. There didn't seem to be anyone around, so she got dressed in her white bikini top and bottom, before heading out and taking a seat near no one in particular.

Lake looked up and arched a brow at Victor as he yelled out, as if surprised that he was undressing in the cabin. He shrugged it off and stepped outside, chuckling lightly to himself at the boy's reaction. What a wimp.

@lyric Ah, nevermind, gonna post this here.

Too much? .-. It's a real life thing, if you think about it. I don't know about your country, but here in Bulgaria, 14 year olds smoke...
I can delete it from her formn since she won't be allowed cigarettes and she won't smoke in the RP, but she STILL is a smoker. Just thought I'd point it out. Not changing her though - she's my main character. 😋

"We're still missing seven competitors. And has anyone seen Aizel? I haven't seen her yet." she called out.

I'm sorry, but your character's appearance doesn't exactly give me the idea of a good explanation. If you'd like, you could try again by editing it a bit. ^^'

@lyric Aye, no prob chief ^^ @cat @bunnyshadow @fussykinz412 @mercury Pinging' everyone I think is online.

#Intro 2
It wasn't easy travelling without a map or proper transport - Aizel had realized this while trudging through the thickly grown palm trees in a long and currently fruitless search for Tawakee camp. So far so good - at least she hadn't lost her luggage, yet.
Emerging from the last row of palms on the hill, she paused, spotting the two large buildings (supposedly the cabins) nearby and the tight circle of stools arranged in front of them. She dragged her trecking backpack along, approaching the place.
A tall raven-haired woman, which Aizel assumed was the host, stood in the very main spot, surrounded by all impatient contestants. Seemed like they were waiting for something and after a second, it clicked in her head.
"Sorry for being late." she droned out and dropped her bags on the ground, raising a layer of dust as they descended (there was no point bothering to move them for the moment, she decided). "My ride broke." The excuse was useless, but nevertheless true. She herself looked already dirty. Her tanned fingers were dark from mud and the bridge of her nose was stained with fuel oil, slightly blending into her skin.
Crossing her arms, she walked forward, taking a seat, nonchalant about the proper attire she lacked - neither had she brought, nor was she willing to wear a swimsuit. It hadn't crossed her mind.
"Are we starting?"

Lake looked up to see a dirt-covered girl enter the clearing. "What do you think is going on, if we're not starting?" He said rudely. Lake leaned back in his chair and stared up at the sky, before adding a semi-helpful comment. "You better get changed into your swim gear."

Angling her head slightly, to face the black-blue haired boy, Aizel inspected him head-to-toe before bothering herself to answer. She'd mentally noted that this boy looked the type to go on a maniacal rampage and punch his way to the prize money - so technically, someone like her. She couldn't help but smirk at the thought.
"You're missing people." she noticed, propping her chin on her palm and her elbow on her knee and acquiring a bored expression. "It looks like you're waiting, not starting."
As for the swimsuit advice, Aizel raised an eyebrow.
"Thanks, but I'm in no hurry." she remarked sarcastically, wearing a smirk that widened and broaded by the second. "Would rather wait for the others."

I'm sorry I've been late. I've been out and about and I can't really RP on a mobile device. And my internet is off and on and my house, so I may disappear but it says I'm logged in.
-
Connor was just waking up from his nap when he heard the speakers. He cursed and quickly went through his luggage to get his swimsuit on. He quickly, and frantically, ran where everybody was crowded. He was the only one showing up at the time. He turned red; his face burned. Everybody was waiting because of him.

"Uh.. uh.. s..sorry," he stuttered that sat down, awkwardly.
-
Melody looked at the speaker. "Darn, we're late. We should get going." She slipped on her bathing suit.
When she reached the crowd, apparently that Connor kid just showed up to. She quickly sat down and ignored the fact that she was late, making everybody else wait.

Ally smiled and grabbed her anklet slipping it on and walked over to the stools. She looked for a seat and found one besides Zac. The girl smiled and walked over sitting down next to him looking at him but then quickly looked back to Eleonora.

Shaula yawned. "Are we starting soon?" It was quite hot outside, and if Shaula hadn't been wearing a swimsuit, she would have been sweating quite a bit. Still, the heat was uncomfortable and she didn't want to wait much longer. The heat was making her feel drowsy...

Shaula quickly shook herself awake and looked around her, eyeing the contestants. 'Geez, no one here looks like they are built to survive!' she thought. 'People are caring about what they look like, making friends, being polite -' Shaula turned to see a girl - Ally, maybe?- getting friendly with another boy. '- and people even have crushes on other people? This will be easy.' Shaula thought, smirking to herself.

Maxwell ran like a madman toward where all the teens were gathered, he didn't want to miss the event for anything. "Heeey!" he yelled as he scrambled along the beach. "It didn't start yet, did it?"

He stopped in his tracks when he saw something on the ground. Picking it up, he ran until he reached the others. Maxwell panted as he examined the blueish seashell he had picked up and stood next to a few people he didn't know. In truth, he didn't know anybody here yet. "Sup, the name's Maxwell." he said in the general direction of Ally and Zac, "but you can call me Max, you know, if you want." He stuffed the shell in his neon green and pink swimsuit pocket.

Bandit nodded once, slipping into her black and green one-piece and then whickly into a pair of swim shorts before running after Melody, figuring it was best to stick with someone who most likely wouldn't be on a seperate team. She tied a bandanna around her head as she kept after the girl, her face holding a look of slightly nervous curiosity.

Scout jogged out of the boy's cabin, rushing over to where everyone else was gathered. He jumped over his sister and quickly took a seat next to her grinning stupidly at her shocked glare.
"so any insight as to what we're doing in our swim suits when the only water is probably infested with some third species or sludge?" he asked with a small grin, keeping his head low, knowing how much the pale twin of his hated germs.
Bandit took a small breath, figuring she was going to have to drop her phobia while on the gameshow. "no clue" she replied, flicking him in the nose "now hush" She snipped with a small frown, crossing her arms over her chest as she watched the host, waiting for further instruction.

"I'm Ally, nice to meet you Max" Ally said with a smile. "I wonder what the challenge is. I mean why are we in our bathing suits?" She said still smiling, but looking a bit irritated. "What ever it is I hope we start soon."

Eleonora counted the teenagers yet again and her smile grew.
"It looks like all our competitors are here! It's time to pick who will be on the first team. Let's see.." she looked at a clipboard with the names and pictures of all the contestants, and then looked back up.
"Lake, Maxwell, Cassandra, Connor, Scott, Melody and Brynn. And you will be known as.. The Phoenixes! Onto the next team!"
"Camilla, Zac, Victor, Shaula, Aizel, Merek, Ally and Veronica. And you will be known as... The Chillers!" After she ended that, she ripped off a piece of paper from the clipboard, crunched it up and threw it behind her.
"For this task, you will be.. jumping off the one thousand feet mountain, off the cliff and into a circle in the water! And after you get to land, you must take the crates and build yourselves a wooden hot tub for your team to enjoy and party the night away! You also get to keep it. But, the loser team will have to come back here tonight and one of the competitors must go to the dock of shame, and take the boat of losers. So let's get up that mountain! I mean, YOU guys get up that mountain." she finished with a mischievous chuckle, and walked away just to grab onto a rope and a helicopter fly over to the mountain in question.

The twins grinned and high-fived each other with a mischevious yet sattisfied look spread across their faces. Glancing over at Melody, Bandit smiled, nodding once, this was going to be very interesting indeed.
Scout popped his gum as he looked over the other teens, they were all a bit different and had their own visible perks or flaws, it was pretty funny, to him at least. Glancing up at the mountain that the helicopter had flown towards. In all honesty, he sucked at swimming, he was a runner, not a swimmer. He would sink like a rock, most likely miss the ring by a mile and drown if something didn't eat him first. The slight nervousness was evident in his eyes as he thought over these things, slowly liking the first challenge less and less
Bandit crossed her arms, leaning on her brother playfully, she knew he couldn't swim, and how badly he sucked at it was hilarious to her. Grinning wider as he swatted at her, Bandit got to her feet, stretching out.
"so who's ready to walk?" she asked under her breath, scout giving her a dissapproving scowl

Woot Chillers! ;]

Smirking broadly, Aizel stood up after a minute of sitting, when the teams were announced. She didn't know the names of all her teammates yet (frankly, she functioned best solo so others didn't matter) but brushed off that lack of knowledge. Everyone was going up anyways, and all she cared about was getting there first.
It would be an easy task - she mused on her advantages, true she was short, but strong and fit for long distance trecks. It would be a piece of cake. Not that she knew how to swim, however... Not well enough, that is. Plunging head first into a broad ocean, and from three hundred meters at that, would surely cause some difficulties.
Pondering on the task, Aizel felt her eyebrows furrow in irkedness - hot tub? Tsk, troublesome.
Marching up to her bags, she only bothered taking off her jacket, which left her wearing only a raggedy black top, and stripped to a pair of shorts she wore underneath her camouflage pants.
The hasty treck upwards began, both her military boots and the rest of her luggage left unattended on the sand.
-
Vick, on the other hand, beamed at the thought of swimming - it was his thing. And with his tall physique capable of withstanding short but lightning-fast sprints, he looked forward to the first task.
Jolting up from his place, he stood put for a while, waiting to see if anyone else from his group would head up as well.
Now standing in the middle of the stool circle, he mused on the team separations. Thank goodness he wasn't in one team with Lake... the guy seriously freaked him out! On the dark side - he was in the same team with the potential popular couple - Zac and Camilla. He shook his head lightly - no point sighing after a girl like that, he reminded himself.

As Shaula listened to Eleonora, she began to ponder. Camilla, well, she seemed like a complete priss. Zac might be alright, as long as he wasn't dreaming about Ally the whole time. Victor, no offense, seemed like a complete wimp, enough said. Hmmm... Aizel? She seemed strong and sturdy. She could be a good ally in this fight. Merek? Shaula hadn't seen much about him, so she just hoped that he was strong. And last, there was Veronica. She seemed okay - not perfect, but someone who Shaula could work with.

As Eleonora continued to talk, Shaula began to think about her next words. 'Oh no... Water challenge? Crap.' she thought. 'And how exactly would you build a hot tub?' she continued thinking. 'Oh well...'

Merek started off at a light jog. He knew better than to come off as a physical threat from the get-go, though looking at the other guys, he might not necessarily have to worry about that.

His plan for the first bit was to stay average. Not a threat, not a weakling. Later, he would need to make some decisions about how he wanted to play this game, but for now he would stay out of the others' way.

{ I think you might've missed Ally, I didn't see her on any of the teams, but I might've skipped over it. ^^ }
Cassandra kept her face emotionless at the mention of the first task. Lake, he wasn't so bad, and would make a good ally, as they had already introduced themselves to each other. She hadn't met the others yet, or at least, she didn't know their names, but she might have caught a glimpse of them. She would have no trouble with walking up to the cliff, being a figure skater, she had strong legs that would support her. But she definitely was not excited for the jumping part. She could swim, of course, but still despised it. Cassandra had no idea how they would manage to make a hot tub, but she knew that some how they would.



Zac smiled at the girl who had sat next to him. Ally. Right, that's who she was. At the sound of the first task, he kept his face expressionless, like Cassandra was doing. His team seemed pretty good, that other girl seemed quite athletic, Camilla wouldn't be too bad either. The rest, he would have to decide. He, like Cassandra was also a skater, and therefore had stronger legs, and wouldn't mind the long trek up the mountain, but the swimming he was a bit worried about. Of course, he didn't let that show on his face. It would make him seem too weak.

Lake: What are you guys all DOING? We started already!
~~~
Lake, having taken Eleonora's last statement as an 'Start', snuck away from everyone else as they mulled in their thoughts. Once completely out of sight, he made a run for the direction of the mountain, glaring up at Eleonora as she got a ride. He stuck a rather profane finger at the helicoptor once he was sure no one was looking, before half climbing, half running up the mountain. This was going to take ages. When he was two-thirds of the way up, he finally looked down to see who else had followed before turning back forward and going the rest of the way. By the time he got up, he had already analyzed his team. At least he wasn't stuck with the wimp. He paused and panted, taking a break from the marathon. He needed his energy if they expected him to jump from so high up and swim with a crate.
-
Camilla frowned slightly at her team. They couldn't possibly expect her to work with that loser, Veronica, right? Before anyone could see her frown, she headed over to Victor, who seemed happy about the task. She's was completeely ignorant of Lake running off. Camilla put a hand on Victor's arm. "I don't think I can do this. The mountain is so high up$" She said as she stared down at the ground.

Shaula scoffed. "Really? Come on. How low can you get?" she sneered. "If you can't climb up the mountain, don't. You're just a disgrace to this competition, and you'll definitely slow us down."

She glanced at all the others. "We need to get going. We'll fall behind everyone if we don't." she growled.

Cassandra: Gah! D:

---------


Cassandra quietly snuck away, leaving her brother to continue socializing. She jogged up the mountain, and glanced up to find Eleanor next to a helicopter. A helicopter? Oh, so she gets a helicopter, while we have to run? Cassandra reflected on it for a moment, before realizing that this was supposed to be a challenge, not a luxurious ride up the mountain in a helicopter. Her legs quickly grew tired, and she slowed down a bit, but soon caught sight of the top, and quickened her pace. Once she had finally reached the top, she found that Lake had already made it here. "Hey,"She greeted, and sat down to catch her breath, her legs aching from the run up. Cassandra pulled out her two hair ties, and slipped them onto her wrist, worried that they would slip out of her hair once she got into the water.

Camilla resisted the urge to roll her eyes. "I said it was high, not hard. I was one of the top track and field runners back at school." she said. "You think I'm skinny for a reason?" With that, she flipped her hair and ran up the mountain, breathing in through her noise and out through her mouth to regulate her breathing.
-
Lake rolled his eyes. "You're not as useless as I thought. You better hurry, looks like the rest are figuring out we started." he said. The boy stared down at the long drop, before stepping back, running and diving. A few moments later, a loud splash was heard as Lake slipped into the water, feeling the sting as he dropped from such a height. He sunk down, before swimming back up and breathing.

Shaula snorted. Who was Camilla kidding? Shaula took a deep breath in. "I'm going up. Feel free to go whenever." she muttered. She took in a deep breath. Time to go up the mountain.

She sighed and raced up the mountain. The scenery was beautiful. But Shaula wasn't here to see views - she was here for MONEY.

Finally - she was up. She glanced down and gulped. Water. Her greatest fear. 'Here goes nothing.' she thought and plunged down into the everlasting blue.

Cassandra glared at the boy, and muttered a few unflattering words under her breath, and stood back, watching him, before sprinting and diving. It was a good dive, certainly not an Olympic dive, but it was good enough. She made sure to dive so that she wouldn't crash into Lake, but not so far that she wouldn't make it into the water. Cassandra landed with a splash, and made a face under water, feeling the stinging feeling that ran up her body, and she suddenly wished that she hadn't brought a bikini. Her head resurfaced, and she took a large gulp of air, and managed to swim to the shore, and sat down on a nearby rock, waiting for the others to arrive. Her arms and legs were still stinging from the drop, and she shivered from the cold water.

Lake grabbed onto Cassandra's arm. "Hold on to me." he said. "It'll be faster if we both swam together for land." Lake continued as he turned to look at the land. The crates were stacked on top of one another, and he wondered if he was allowed to throw the other team's crates into the water. There weren't any rules saying he couldn't...

Cassandra nodded."Alright."She said, and kicked with her legs to the land, and climbed on. She grabbed Lake's arm and grabbed him on as well, and noticed the crates. And the other team's crates were there as well. Cassandra thought a while, and turned back to Lake. "Should we get started, or wait for the rest?"She questioned, glancing up to the top of the mountain, which was barely visible.

When they got on land, Lake lay down on the ground, staring up as the sky as he breathed. "We should get started before anyone from the enemy team gets here." He sat up and stood, before heading for his team's crates. Lake tilted his head to the side and grinned evilly at the trees, sure there was a camera there. He walked over to the other teams crates, before stacking them all into a high pile, using his own crates as a step stool to help. This way, if someone pulled the wrong crate from the stack, the entire thing will come tumbling down, hopefully breaking something inside. He rubbed his hands and coughed. "Now, let's get started."

Merek finally reached the top, panting for breath. He took a moment to catch his breath and looked over the cliff. He saw people already down there, swimming to shore. He wondered how many were on his team...

He looked back to see if anyone was coming before taking a running leap over the cliff. It wasn't like he was an adrenaline junkie or anything. He just didn't want to give himself the chance to chicken out.

The water rushed up at him much more quickly than he had hoped, but he managed to not bellyflop as he hit the water feet-first.

The shock of the cold water caught him off-guard, but he managed to pull himself up surface, shivering and gasping for breath. On the shore, he could see two members of the opposite team... the creep whose name was Lake, and the punky-looking girl named Cassandra.

In the water, though, he spotted another member of his team. Shaula? Ya, that had to be it. He swam in her direction.

"Hey." he said.

-Hey? Really?- he thought to himself. He really wasn't good with girls, especially not while he was also treading water and freezing cold.
