FSI: Riddle Hunt Part 3

Izzy helped Squirrel up.

"Are you alright?" Izzy asked checking Squirrel for injuries.

"Yeah I'm okay…" Squirrel said, still a little sad.

"Oh you look like you're in so much pain!" Izzy said.

Izzy kissed Squirrel.

"Does that make it better?" Izzy asked.

"Not really…" Squirrel said.

"Oh it must be that stupid tight rope!" Izzy said.

She untied Squirrel's ropes.

"Is that better?" Izzy asked happily.

"A little." Squirrel said shrugging. "I just feel a little stiff that's all. But I'm fine and-"

"You are not fine! You just said you're stiff!" Izzy said. "You deserve a massage!"

Izzy picked Squirrel up and lifted him outside.



***

Fox looked around.

He was standing next to the table.

"This easy huh?" Fox said chuckling.

Bunny's head poked out from the bushes.

She pulled her walkie-talkie out.

"Target spotted. I'm going in." Bunny said.

She put the walkie-talkie away.



***

Squirrel was lying in the sand on his stomach.

Izzy was massaging his back and shoulders.

"Izzy is this necessary?" Squirrel asked.

"It most certainly is!" Izzy said rubbing his lower back. "You're in so much pain!"

"Actually now I just feel itchy from all this sand." Squirrel said.

Izzy gasped.

"Oh Squirrel!" Izzy screamed.

She lifted him out of the sand and over her head.

Squirrel blinked.

Izzy ran out into the water and let Squirrel down.

She held him so he wouldn't drown.



***

Bunny was in full camo gear.

She was covered in mud, leaves, and twigs.

She crawled on the ground towards the cave.

Fox lifted the chess game and placed it in his backpack.

"Okay Squirrel that's it! We won!" Fox said.

Bunny crawled underneath the table.

"Squirrel?" Fox asked looking around.

Fox sat the backpack on the table and walked over to the bushes.

"Squirrel?" Fox repeated.

Bunny's hand appeared and she grabbed the backpack from underneath the table.



***

Izzy was scrubbing Squirrel down and washing the sand off of him.

"There you go Squirrely-Poo!" Izzy said happily.

Squirrel blinked.

"Well that feels much better." Squirrel said smiling. "I feel refreshed."

Izzy smiled.



***
Confessional: "Okay, you have to understand how much I am feeling right now," Izzy said. "Squirrel was around Tonya's finger since around the time I left the competition for the first time! She's had his attention for so long! I tried to get Squirrel's attention by becoming a hippie; by being NICE! Now that she's gone, Squirrel is all mine. And it feels great."
***

Izzy grabbed Squirrel's face and kissed him.

Squirrel kissed back.

The two went underwater and kept kissing.



***

Bunny pulled out her walkie-talkie.

"Izzy come in!" Bunny yelled. "I have the target spotted! I have the items in my hold! IZZY! IZZY!"

"Well I can't find Squirrel…" Fox sighed. "Might as well finish now. Hey wait a minute! Where's the backpack?"

Bunny gulped from underneath the table.

"IZZY!" Bunny yelled again.



***

"IZZY!" the walkie-talkie yelled.

Izzy's walkie-talkie was in the shed.

Bunny was screaming her head off from the walkie-talkies.

Izzy was still outside though.

Squirrel and Izzy resurfaced.

Squirrel blinked.

Izzy smiled.

"I think I love you again Izzy." Squirrel said.

"You better!" Izzy said smiling.

She hugged Squirrel tightly.



***

Fox pushed the table over and stared blankly at Bunny.

"Well, well, well, if it isn't my very small-minded sister Bunny." Fox said.

Bunny blinked.

"IZZY DO YOU READ ME?!" Bunny screamed shaking the walkie-talkie. "IZZY!?"

Fox chuckled.

"Nice try Bunny." Fox said.

Fox walked towards Bunny.

Bunny tossed the walkie-talkie into the cave.

"Well this is just great." Bunny said annoyed.



***

Izzy and Squirrel walked back to shore holding hands.

Izzy blinked.

"Wasn't I supposed to be doing something?" Izzy asked.

Squirrel blinked.

"I don't know about you but I need to go catch up with Fox."  Squirrel said shrugging.

"Oh crap!" Izzy said. "That's what I was supposed to be doing! Helping Bunny!"

Izzy and Squirrel both ran off into the forest.



***

"Bunny I'm here!" Izzy screamed jumping out of the bushes.

Fox was wiping his hands.

He had the backpack strapped on.

Squirrel ran to Fox's side.

"There you are Squirrel." Fox said.

"Wait! Where's Bunny?" Izzy asked.

Fox pointed at the cave's mouth.

The cave's mouth was sealed shut.

The table was blocking the entrance.

"FOX! Let me out now!" Bunny yelled, banging on the table.

"Sorry but I need to win immunity." Fox laughed. "C'mon Squirrel."

Fox walked into the bushes.

Squirrel turned to Izzy.

"Bye Izzy." Squirrel said.

Izzy smiled.

"See you later Squirrely-Poo." Izzy said.

Izzy turned to face the table.

"Alright Bunny! I'll get you out of there!" Izzy called annoyed.

Squirrel grinned and ran off for Fox.



***

"Yeah, and then you can buy these awesome shades too." Mr. Director said pointing at his sunglasses.

Mr. Director and McBeaver were sitting on the dock.

"Aye, really now?" McBeaver asked. "Why don't ye give me the website so I can purchase them."

"Okay." Mr. Director said. "Here wait! I see someone!"

Fox and Squirrel were running towards the dock.

The two ran onto the dock and up to Mr. Director.

Mr. Director stood up.

"No immunity unless you have the three riddled items." Mr. Director said.

"Here!" Fox said panting.

He pulled an anchor, a tire swing, and a game of chess from the backpack.

He dropped them on the dock.

Mr. Director looked at the items closely.

"Uhuh… Yeah… I see…" Mr. Director said squinting at the objects.

"These are the right objects right?" Fox asked.

"Yep! You two have won immunity!" Mr. Director said.

"Yeah!" Fox said.

"Woo-hoo!" Squirrel cheered.

Fox and Squirrel jumped in the air and gave each other high-fives.

"I would treat this as a ticket to the final three." McBeaver said standing up.

"Yes!" Fox said.

Bunny and Izzy ran onto the dock.

"Oh no!" Bunny yelled. "We're too late!"

"Crap!" Izzy yelled.

"You two are going to have to compete for a place in the final three." Mr. Director said squinting at the two.

Bunny and Izzy stared at each other.



***

Mr. Director stood by the mess hall entrance.

"So what's our quote on quote challenge?" Bunny asked sternly.

"Yeah is it another riddle?" Izzy asked.

"Nope," Mr. Director said. "You see, I lost my mirror two days ago and I haven't had the time to stare at myself in forever. Whichever one of you can bring me a mirror first wins. The winner will move onto the final three. The loser will be sent home packing."

"Okay!" Izzy screamed.

Izzy ran off.

Bunny snorted.

"Ha!" Bunny laughed. "Ticket to win it! I'm so glad I carry a mirror with me at all times!"

Bunny pulled out a handheld mirror and handed it to Mr. Director.

Mr. Director snatched it and stared at himself.

"Aren't you forgetting something?" Bunny snapped.

Mr. Director kept staring at himself.

Bunny snapped her fingers in Mr. Director's face.

"What?! Oh-oh right!" Mr. Director said smiling. "Bunny you win! Which means…?"

"That me, Fox, and Squirrel are in the final three?" Bunny asked smiling.

"Pff, no! Which means IZZY IS FINALLY ELIMINATED!" Mr. Director screamed. "YES! FINALLY! I'VE WAITED EIGHT LONG WEEKS FOR THIS TO FINALLY HAPPEN!"

"You kept count for that long?" Bunny asked surprised.

"Yes! But who cares! She's gone!" Mr. Director said smiling.

Izzy ran up to Bunny and Mr. Director carrying a large mirror.

"Sorry I ripped this out of the communal bathroom wall!" Izzy said panting. "But it's here!"

"Izzy you're out." Mr. Director said.

Izzy stared blankly.

She looked at Bunny.

Bunny was smirking.

She turned to face the mirror Mr. Director was holding.

Izzy looked up at Mr. Director.

She looked at her mirror.

"So you might want to get on the Shame Ship." Mr. Director said. "Like now-"

Izzy took her mirror and slammed it across Mr. Director's face.

Mr. Director fell to the ground.

He had glass bits in his face.

He was cringing on the ground.

"WHAAAAAAAAAAAAAT???!?!?!?!" Izzy screamed.

"You're out!" Bunny snapped. "I got the mirror first which means you are eliminated from the competition!"

Izzy started flailing in rage.

"NO! I AM IZZY! I WILL NEVER BE ELIMINATED!" Izzy screamed. "I WILL NOT LEAVE THIS DUMB ISLAND UNTIL-"

Izzy froze.

She fell over and face-planted herself in the dirt.

There was a dart stuck in her back.

Fox was standing behind her with a dart gun.

"Man I've wanted to do that for a long time now." Fox groaned.

McBeaver and Squirrel walked over to the group.

"Wait who won?" Squirrel asked.

"Me!" Bunny said happily.

"Aww man." Squirrel said.

Bunny glared at Squirrel.

"I-I mean congrats!" Squirrel said. "Woo!"

McBeaver picked up Izzy.

"So the master survivalist is out?" McBeaver said. "Shame, she would've made so many ratings in the final three. Oh well."

McBeaver walked off.

Fox, Squirrel, and Bunny followed.



***

The sun was beginning to set on the island.

McBeaver trudged down the dock with Izzy over his shoulders.

The Shame Ship pulled in.

"Well it's about time she left." Bunny snorted. "She would never deserve the win after coming back from a past elimination…"

"Well she's gone, so we don't have to worry about her insanity." Fox said.

"Aye, farewell whack-job." McBeaver said holding Izzy; preparing to toss her.

"Wait!" Squirrel screamed.

McBeaver turned around.

"Izzy I know you're in a deep sleep like Fox said you were but I just want you to know something!" Squirrel said. "I love you!"

McBeaver rolled his eyes and tossed Izzy onto the Shame Ship.

"Bye Izzy!" Squirrel called as the Shame Ship started off.

Mr. Director walked up to McBeaver, Fox, Squirrel, and Bunny and stared as Izzy sailed away.

His face was still damaged, but he managed a smile.

"Totally worth it." Mr. Director laughed.

Izzy laid in the Shame Ship unconscious.

Izzy sailed over the horizon, never to return to FSI.

Fox looked at Squirrel and Bunny.

Bunny looked up surprised.

"What are the odds of us three making it here?" Bunny asked annoyed.

"Are you honestly surprised?" Fox asked.

Mr. Director smiled.

"Almost done with this show!" Mr. Director said smiling. "It's about time!"

Bunny blinked.

"I have a whole cabin to myself!" Bunny screamed.

Bunny ran off.

Mr. Director grinned.

"Enjoy one of your last weeks here you guys." Mr. Director said walking off. "We only have two weeks left til we have a millionaire winner."

Mr. Director and McBeaver left.

Fox and Squirrel grinned and walked back to their cabins.



***

Izzy woke up, still on the Shame Ship.

"W-Where am I?' Izzy asked scratching her head. "Wait a minute!"

Izzy looked around at the ocean around her.

"NO!!!!!!!!" she screamed.

Her scream echoed on and on and on, but it would never ever return to FSI.
