MIDECONDRIA!!!!!!

\*an absolutely epic intro that I haven’t got round to writing starts playing\*

\*the intro finishes, and you see Zoe standing on the docks\*

Zoe: Welcome back. We will be introducing our contestants now.

\*a boat approaches, carrying a girl with short brown hair, a purple top and black baggy jeans\*

Zoe: Welcome Lydia!

Lydia: Hey.

Zoe: No need to get overexcited.

\*Lydia goes to stand at the opposite end of the dock\*

\*the boat comes to the dock again, with a guy with a green mohawk and all black clothes on it\*

Zoe: Say hello to Adam!

Adam: So this is where we’re staying?

Zoe: Welllllllll… this is where you'll be staying… My place is somewhere *away* from the camping grounds.

Adam: \*sighs and carries his suitcase to stand next to Lydia\*

Zoe: Ah! Say hello to Klara!!!

\*a redhead with a blue top and khaki shorts gets off the boat\*

Klara: Hello. You must be the host. \*she shakes Zoes hand\*

Klara: And that must make you the other contestants. Hi. \*she walks over to Lydia and Adam and stands next to them\*

Zoe: The next camper to be joining you is Carlos!

\*A tan guy with black hair and his shirt open arrives and gets off the boat\*

Carlos: Hi.

\*Lydia, Klara, and Adam are staring at him, practically drooling\*

Zoe: Hello. Go and join the other campers over there.

Carlos: Sure. \*he goes and stands behind Lydia and Klara, who exchange ecstatic glances\*

Zoe: Introducing… Zara!

\*a blond girl with curly hair wearing an all pink ensemble arrives\*

Klara: Wait… Zara as in Zaras Fashion World?

Zara: You know it! A fan, I take it? \*she flicks her hair behind her back\*

Klara: No. I stopped reading after you slammed chokers as basic.

Zara: Well they are.

Klara: Are not!

Zara: Are!

Zoe: Girls, quiet down now, save it for the game.

\*Zara goes and stands next to Carlos, smiling at him\*

Zoe: Next to be joining us is Michael!

\*the boat approaches, carrying a guy with brown hair and freckles, wearing a red and white t-shirt and blue trousers\*

Michael: Hi. Uhhh, just out of curiosity, how much fuel is that boat using?

Zoe: No idea.

Michael: It’s bad for the environment if-

Zoe: Meet the other campers and stop talking.

\*Michael looks irritated and goes to stand with the others\*

Zoe: Now. Meet Sally!

\*a girl with blue hair, wearing a denim jacket and otherwise only black approaches on the boat, smoking a joint\*

Zoe: Hello Sally.

Sally: \*exhales smoke\* Hey. \*she looks over at the other campers\* Those the losers I‘ll be staying with?

Zoe: Yeah. Look, little tip, try to make friends, you don’t wanna be kicked off first, trust me.

Sally: Whatever. \*she flicks her joint into the water, which makes Michael flinch\*

Zoe: Next camper is, fresh out of cadet school, Nico!

\*a tall, muscular guy with a shaven head wearing army style clothes is on the boat\*

Nico: Greetings General! \*he salutes\*

Zoe: Ok, you won’t need that here.

Nico: Understood General! \*he sees the other contestants giving him critical looks\*

Nico: So you are the other soldiers.

Sally: Campers. Read the contract. \*she lights another joint\*

Klara: Do you have any idea what that stuff does to your lungs?

\*Sally inhales and then exhales right in Klaras face, causing her to cough\*

Klara: Alright then, if you’re just going to be rude about it. \*she angrily turns her head away\*

Zoe: Next camper to be joining us is Jenny!

\*the boat arrives, carrying a girl with brown hair, wearing a pink jacket, striped top and green trousers\*

Jenny: Hey guys!

\*the campers that already arrived give her weird judgy looks\*

\*Jenny takes her bag and joins the others\*

Zoe: Introducing Phillip!

\*the boat drives past and you see a guy with black hair wearing a blue shirt and black shorts standing on the dock\*

Phillip: Hi! It’s great to be here!

\*Phillip and Zoe fistbump and he goes to the other campers\*

Zoe: Hello Camie!

\*a girl with long black hair, wearing a black crop top and shorts is standing there, arms crossed, glaring at all the other contestants\*

Zoe: Ok. Those are your fellow campers. Try… not to kill them all ok?

Camie: Can't make any promises. \*she takes her bag and dumps it right next to Klara, who squeals and jumps to the side\*

Zoe: Settle down! And welcome our next contestant, Jawad!

\*a guy with dark brown hair wearing sporty clothes jumps off the boat\*

Jawad: Hi! You must be the host! And that makes you the other campers! \*he tries to do a sassy walk over but trips over Camies suitcase\*

\*Zoe snorts and some of the campers smirk while Klara helps Jawad up\*

Zoe: Anyways, our next camper is quite a sensation! Welcoming Una!

\*a girl with red hair wearing a baggy pink top and cream shorts gets off the boat\*

Sally: Ew.

Adam: Isn’t that the chick who keeps trying to make us all vegans?

Una, to Zoe: Did you get my memo about wanting a vegan selection?

Zoe: Of yourse. \*once Una walks past she shrugs at the camera\*

Una, seeing Sally smoking: Is that biodegradable? Because if not tha-

\*Sally blows smoke in her face, causing Una to cough loudly\*

Zoe: Luke!

\*a pale boy with brown hair wearing a blue shirt over a red one with blue jeans is on the dock\*

Luke: Uhh, hi!

Zoe: I heard about your allergies. Just try not to get into too much danger ok? Epipens are expensive.

\*Luke is visibly nervous, but still nods. He goes over and stands next to Jenny, who smiles at him\*

Zoe: Our next contestant is kind of a big deal. Introducing Maria!

\*a pretty girl with blond hair wearing a saffron top and a navy skirt steps onto the dock\*

Maria: Hello.

\*most of the campers look excited\*

Jenny: You’re that model, aren’t you? I saw you in that purple dress, you looked amazing!

Maria: Thanks! I like your jeans, very stylish!

\*Jenny blushes\*

Jenny: Thanks! I like your shoes!

Maria: Yours are prettier.

\*Jenny blushes so much if you glanced at her quickly you'd mistake her for a tomato\*

Zoe: Hate to interrupt your romantics, but our next camper is here. Hi John!

\*a guy with brown hair, a green shirt and blue jeans walks to Zoe and shakes her hand\*

John: Great to finally be here!

\*he looks at the other contestants\*

John: Hello.

\*he walks over to them and sets down his bags\*

Zoe: Katherine, glad you could make it.

\*a girl with a brown fringe wearing a red top and blue trousers gets off the boat\*

Katherine: Whatever.

\*she dumps her bags by the others\*

Zoe: Rude. Anyway, say hi to Tim!

\*a guy with a black mohawk, wearing a black top and black jeans is standing on the dock\*

Tim: …

Zoe: I already talked with your juvie center. If you break a rule here or get eliminated, you’ll be sent straight back, ok?

\*Tim smirks\*

Tim: Sure.

\*he goes over and stands next to Sally, who is still smoking\*

Tim: You still got one of those?

Sally: Sure.

\*Sally passes him one, and he lights it\*

Zoe: Don’t ruin your lungs here please. Our final two contestants are Olivia and Mark!

\*a girl with pink hair wearing all black and a guy with brown hair and glasses walk across the dock\*

Mark: Hello!

\*Olivia stomps past the others and dumps her stuff at the back\*

Mark: You must be the other campers. I'm Mark.

Zoe: Good, now that we’re all here, take your bags and follow me to your cabins!

\*the scene cuts to the main area, where all the contestants are standing with their bags\*

Zoe: This is the main area. There is the main lodge.

\*Zoe points to a large building with a big front porch\*

Zoe: You'll be eating meals there. If you get hurt, or otherwise have problems, report there. If you need help, you’ll find me, cook or an intern there.

Zoe: That is the bathroom.

\*Zoe points to a small hut, with a toilet stall next to it\*

Zoe: The toilet stall is where you can make confessions, share your thoughts or just vent.

Klara (confessional): I‘ll be honest, I’m pretty stoked for the challenge. Bring it on!

Luke (confessional): This place looks like my final destination \*shivers\*

Zoe: And those are your cabins.

\*the camera zooms over to two small log cabins with small front porches and a door on each side\*

Zoe: Each team has one. Boys get one side of the cabin, girls the other.

Jenny: Excuse me miss, what are the teams?

Zoe: Yes, I’m getting to that. You will be divided into two teams. When I call your name, go to the cabin on the left. Michael. Olivia. Luke. Phillip. Adam. Maria. Carlos. Tim. Una and Jawad.

\*the campers go over to their cabin\*

Zoe: You will be known as the Soaring Eagles!

\*she throws a green banner at Carlos, who catches it and rolls it down. There is a green eagle on it\*

Zoe: The rest of you, once I call your name, over to the right cabin. Lydia. Sally. John. Klara. Katherine. Zara. Nico. Camie. Jenny, and finally Mark. You are the Rising Falcons.

\*she throws a red banner at Lydia, who rolls it down to reveal a red falcon on it\*

Zoe: You have half an hour to unpack your stuff. Once the half hour is over, head to the main lodge for lunch.

\*Zoe leaves and the campers go into the cabins\*

\*the scene cuts to the campers standing in a row in the cafeteria. Chef Hatchet is there, holding a pot of brown „stew“\*

Chef: I've said it to all the campers before you, and I‘ll say it again! I serve food 3 times a day, and if you don’t eat it, you’ll go hungry 3 times a day, understood?

\*the campers nod\*

\*Chef starts serving Klara and Mark, who are first in line\*

Adam, quietly: Dude should chill, this isn’t the army.

Chef, spinning around: WHAT DID YOU JUST SAY?

Adam: I said that-

Una, rushing over and putting her hands on Adams shoulder: Nothing, he said nothing. Right Adam? \*she glares at him\*

Adam: Uhh, yeah, nothing at all.

\*Chef grunts, and continues serving the other campers\*

Una, quietly: What was that for? He could have killed you!

Adam: Get off me.

\*Una sits down irritated\*

\*the campers are seen sitting, eating their food, as Zoe comes in\*

Zoe: Oh good, you like the food. Anyway, your first challenge is in 10 minutes. Meet me at the docks for further instructions.

\*Zoe leaves, and the campers exchange nervous looks\*

Lydia (confessional): I hope the first challenge won’t be too bad. I’m not really that good with like, sports and so.

Tim (confessional): My team looks like it sucks. Like, *really* sucks. I just hope we manage to win.

\*the campers are standing by the docks, where they are joined by Zoe\*

Zoe: Alright campers. For todays challenge you must put these on.

\*Zoe throws a bag of blindfolds at each team\*

Sally: Why blindfolds?

Zoe: You’ll see. Sit down on the back of the truck and put them on. Your first challenge requires that you don’t know where you started, or how to get back here.

Sally: …

\*Klara and Jenny look at each other nervously\*

\*the campers sit down and put on the blindfolds, and the scene cuts off\*

\*the scene resumes. The Rising Falcons are standing in a clearing in the woods. It cuts to the Soaring Eagles, who are by a river\*

Zoe, over a loudspeaker: Welcome to the woods! You can take off your blindfolds now.

\*the campers take them off\*

Zoe, via loudspeaker: You and your teammates will each find a bag in your teams color. Each bag contains a map, a compass and a bit of water. Your task is to find your way back to camp in time for dinner. The first team back at camp wins immunity and a cool reward which I will reveal once the winner is decided. The loosing team must vote off one of their teammates. Now go!

\*at the Falcons\*

Klara: Ok team, we got the bag. Who’s going to take the map, who the compass and who will carry the bag with the water?

Nico: I learned to read maps at cadets school!

Klara: Ok, then Nico takes the map. Any objections?

\*the others shake their heads\*

Mark: I can take the compass.

Klara: Ok. Now for the bag…

\*Lydia grabs it\*

Klara: Ok, then that’s that. Nico, what way do we take?

\*Nico points\*

Klara: Good! Let’s go!

\*at the Eagles\*

Adam: Geography is for losers.

Una, at the same time: I say we just follow the water.

\*Adam and Una glare at each other\*

Una: Follow the water, it'll bring us to the lake. Then we can navigate back along the beach.

Luke: Let’s just go! The others are probably already halfway to camp.

Adam: Did you see the other team? They’re mostly girls. There’s no way any of them can read a map.

\*Olivia shoves Adam against a tree\*

Olivia: Listen here, we can navigate perfectly well, our *gender* doesn’t define that. Now let’s follow Una. Unless you have a better idea?

Una: Let’s just go!

Luke: Shouldn’t we read the map?

Una: We'll be fine!

\*it alternates between shots of the Eagles following the water and the Falcons reading the map\*

\*Falcons\*

Klara: I THINK I CAN SEE THE CAMP!

\*the falcons start running\*

\*Eagles\*

Una: THE DOCKS! QUICK, RUN TO THE LODGE!!!

\*the eagles start running\*

\*Zoe is standing at the finish line, looking at her watch\*

\*suddenly, the Falcons run out and cross the finish line\*

John: We made it!

\*the Eagles are seen climbing up the docks, and running to the finish line\*

\*they notice the Falcons arrived first\*

Una: What?! How did they get here before us?

Adam: Because of YOUR navigation idea!

\*Una and Adam glare at each other, and look like they are about to start a fight, until Zoe steps between them\*

Zoe: And the Rising Falcons are the winners!

\*the Falcons jump around celebrating and so\*

Zoe: You win a gourmet dessert for you to enjoy after dinner.

\*Zoe looks to the Eagles\*

Zoe: Eagles, I'll see you at the campfire.

\*they exchange nervous glances\*

\*at the campfire\*

Zoe: Campers. You've all cast your votes and made your decisions. On this plate, I have nine marshmallows. Whoever does not receive a marshmallow must immediately go to the dock, and leave. And they can never return. If I call your name, come and get your marshmallow.

Zoe: Carlos. Luke. Phillip. Maria. Michael. Jawad. Olivia. Tim.

\*the campers are seen holding their marshmallows\*

Zoe: Una. Adam. One of you will be going home today.

Zoe: Una. You not using the maps cost you precious time, that you would have needed to get there before the Falcons.

\*Una bites her lip while Adam smirks\*

Zoe: Adam. You insulted your teammates and argued with Una, which again, cost you time.

\*Adam looks angry\*

Zoe: The final marshmallow goes to…

\*both look scared\*

Zoe: … Adam.

\*Una gasps as Adam catches the marshmallow\*

Adam (confessional): Chick was annoying. Just had to get some of the guys on my side, and then we could vote her off.

Una: You will PAY for this! Just wait, my followers will make you wish you were never born!

\*She storms off to the dock\*

\*the rest of her team roast their marshmallows over the fire\*

\*at the Falcons cabin\*

\*the falcons are eating ice cream and cake on the front porch\*

John: To the Rising Falcons!

Everyone: TO THE RISING FALCONS!!!

\*John smiles at Klara, causing her to blush\*

\*the Eagles walk past, glaring angrily\*

\*Jenny sees Maria, and waves\*

\*Maria starts to wave back, but Tim pulls her along\*

\*cut to Zoe standing on the dock\*

Zoe: So that was exciting. But who’s next? Find out next time, on
