Cherie paced back and forth wishing for some action, even if it was just a little. Scott, Elise, and John had be gone for what seemed like ages. She was aware of Brains's demise early on in the game, but as of yet had had no word from any of the others. She looked out into her surroundings. "Great. Not even a bird around!" Sighing, she resigned herself to the fact she may have been forgotten. Wait! If I am forgotten, I'll be the last one left and I'll win! She grinned to herself, pleased with the way her thoughts had taken her.

"Scott! We have been walking through these damn bushes for hours! We need to take Gordon or Alex's flags and get back to our own camp!"

"I know, Elise! But I don't like the idea of getting shot and losing!"

Behind him Elise huffed. He ignored it and continued heading towards Alex's fort, or at least where he thought it was. A little further down the pathway, Scott's wrist-comm buzzed. "Scott here."

"Hey, it's John, I got slammed! Brandon got me, looks like you three are on your own."

"Three?" Scott and Elise simultaneously realized that Cherie was still guarding their fort! "Thanks, John. Sorry you got it!"

"Yeah, right, Scott!" John replied as he buzzed out, laughing.

"Do you think she's okay back there?" Elise asked Scott.

"I hope so. The quicker we get the others picked off, the quicker we'll be able to get back to her." The two continued on their trek onwards.

Dom had finally made his way back to Gordon and Nikki, giving them the heads up on what he knew about the other teams.

"Anyone know anything about Scott, Elise, or Cherie?" asked Gordon.

Dom shook his head. "Sorry, I only got to deal with Virgil and I think Alex was nearby."

Gordon looked thoughtful for a second. "Right! We're heading over to Scott's. We'll get there faster than Alex's team, and I want to nail Scott!"

Nikki smiled and rolled her eyes. "Men and their games!" she remarked, as laughing, she followed along after Dom and Gordon, hoping they weren't going into a paintball trap.

Christopher waited at the fort, glad to be standing still. The sun was giving him a headache, and to tell the truth, the hangover he had was threatening to make him erupt at any time. He was glad to have the nice quiet job of defending the fort. No one's come by here yet, and no one is going to either. From what I could see this is a brotherly grudge match.

He came on the alert, however, when he heard a slight rustle in the bushes to his left. Cautiously, he crept over to that side, peering out into the undergrowth. He could see, some fifteen paces from him, the blond hair of someone's head. That looks like Alex! he realized. Too bad that heads are off limits! I'd have a clear shot. He set his gun on the edge of the fort, waiting for the boy to show some other part of his body. So it was that he was completely surprised when a paintball slammed into his back from behind.

"Arggh!" he cried, turning to see who had shot him. Behind him was a grinning Callie, who had stepped into the fort and taken
the flag.

Alex came out of hiding, whooping. Christopher shook his head. "Y'know. If I had been feeling better...."

"You'd have fallen for the same tactic," Callie said amiably. "Now, onto Scott's fort."
