***Before I start I just want to say that I'm sorry this took so long!!!! I was on vacation & then I started working on something else and....you get the point. This is dedicated to Summerjoy11, dxcfan14, lolbarbie, BrpRulz, Taraisawesome, Ashyroxsox, & Courtneyfan101. Anyway here it it...***


Heather's P.O.V.

"How about this one?" Courtney asked, pointing into a pale grey cave.
"I don't know...it looks pretty dark in there." I commented.
Duncan frowned and pulled out his lighter and flicked it on.
"Okay fine! As long as there are no bats in there." I followed them inside cauitously. Courtney looked pretty scared too; she was gripping Duncan's arm tightly. He smirked down at her and she let go at once.
When no bats या other जानवर crawled out from the shadows Courtney finally spoke.
"So, we need a fire, food, water, and some blankets would be nice. Heather can आप get the firewood? And if आप happen to find anything to eat that'd be great. Duncan, - I can't believe I'm asking आप to do this - but can आप steal some blankets? I think there's a village down there. I'll gaurd camp since I can't do much." She indicated to her twisted ankle. We nodded and raced off leaving her alone and umprotected in the cave.


I hiked up the mountains, gathering sticks along the way.
"Hello. Heather, isn't it?"
I turned as a voice adressed me. Alejandro.
"What do आप want?!" I snapped.
"I just haven't properly met आप yet." He smiled charmingly. I narrowed my eyes.
"That doesn't work on me आप know. आप can't just expect me to fall for आप because आप think you're cute."
"I'm rather handsome actually." He grinned again.
"Ugh." I groaned and stromed away. Luckliy he had enough sense to know not to follow me. I sighed in relief. Wait, was that a ब्लूबेरी झाड़ी, बुश over there?
**************************************************

Courtney's P.O.V.

I sat boredly in the cavew waiting for them to return. Two मिनटों after Duncan left he had come back and gave me his lighter. I guess he expected Heather to beat him back या he thought it could protect me.

I crawled out from the cave. Behind it was a cluster of assorted bushes. Most of them looked poisonous but I recognised ब्लैकबेरी and rasberry. I carefully plucked some twigs from the बिना सोचे समझे bushes and, using my CIT training, started to make a basket.


I was almost done weaving when Heather came.
"Hello? Courtney?" She paused at the entrance of the cave waiting for an answer.
I couldn't answer because I was eating some of the rasberries as I worked.
"Courtney?! COURTNEY!" She screamed in frighth as I swallowed.
"Heather! I'm right here!" I called.
"Oh." She dumped a pile of sticks in front of me. "Here's the firewood. Oh good a basket! I found some blueberries back there. Okay, bye!" Heather took off with the basket. I frowned and extracted और twigs from the bushes to make another one. Once I finished I dragged the sticks in the cave and built the आग and lit it. Yeah, for someone who is crippled I was sure doing a lot of work.
I limped back to the bushes to pick berries with the सेकंड basket I'd made that day.

Gwen's P.O.V.

Where is he!?! Where did those devils take him!? Urgh, if I get my hands on one of them I am totally strangling them!!!!! Stealing him form me. Underhanded, devious, two-faced little-
I broke off from my thoughts as a twig snapped in the distance. I'd already come across that Tamara girl and she'd run away screaming. Why? What was wrong? I pondered, फ्रोज़न to the spot waiting for the branch-snapper. Lindsay stepped out of the trees.
"Hey Gwen. Do आप know where Ale-Ahhhhh!!!!!!!" She cut herself off with a scream as she looked at my face. I watched as she raced away. I frowned. There was a river nearby, maybe I could see my reflection in that. I waded into the water and almost screamed when I saw my appearance. My hair was all messed up but I didn't care about that. What scared me was my expression. It was the one of a complete psycho, derranged face, bloodshot, baggy eyes.
I jumped back from the water and scurried up the hill. I needed to get up to the caves for the challenge anyway.

The whole way up the two sides of my brain were arguing with each other.
How could he do this to you?! The और elegant half of my mind asked in anger and disbelief.
Go get revenge then stupid! Go kill the girls that stood in the way of your hookup! Yes I प्यार revenge! The bloodthirsty half screamed.
That's so harsh! I can't do that! Besides he likes them doesn't he? I can't do that.
With them out of the way you'll spend और time with him. That's what आप want isn't it?
Well yes, but....YOU DON'T HAVE TO RESORT TO VIOLENCE!
All is far in प्यार and war.
Don't use my words against me!
I was starting to get a headache.
"Guys, just SHUT UP!" I screamed. It's not like there was anything I could do about it anyway. Unless I actually listened to one of them. But there was no way I'd find them. Little miss CIT probably got them लॉस्ट anyway.
**************************************************

Duncan's P.O.V.

I trudged back up to the cave with a backpack full of blankets and waterbottles as well as some cupcakes. Yeah, some guy caught me trying to steal the balnkets and gave me all this stuff. I guess he thought I was poor. It kinda wrecked the whole fun of stealing everything but I got और than I would have so I guess Princess is kinda right; stealing isn't right.
What is wrong with आप Duncan?! Do आप suddenly have brain damage?!
I shook my thoughts away when I reached the cave. Inside a आग was burning heartily and Courtney was sitting beside it with a basket full of berries.
"So आप didn't get eaten द्वारा a bear." I replied and sat beside her.
"Oh, hahaha. You're so funny." She glared at me with the last two words.
I smirked and took a handful of the rasberries and blackberries in the basket.
"Did आप get the blankets?" She asked impaitently.
I pulled out the bag. "And water and cupcakes." I paused. "Where's Heather?"
"She came द्वारा a few hours पूर्व and चुरा लिया my basket then she went off to pick some blueberries." Courtney explained, taking one of the waterbottles and a cupcake.
The sun sank behind the hills.
"Aw, I प्यार the sunset." Courtney commented, gazing at it fondly.
"Yeah, it is kinda pretty I guess."
"What could be और beautiful than the sunset?" She asked, shooting me a quizzical look.
"You." I smirked.
"Thanks." She smiled deviously. Then Heather ran in panting.
"Whoa, Heather what happened? Are आप okay?!"
"Kangaroos." She gasped. "Chased me."
"Seriously?" I laughed. "Kangaroos?"
"Not funny." Heather growled.
I kept laughing. I could just picture Chris seeing this. हे where was the hiden camera anyway?
"Hey Court, did आप find the camera yet?"
"What camera?"
"The camera filming all ths! They must ahve hidden them everywhere! Where is it!"
"Um...I don't know. Does it really matter? They need one to record the whole show. Don't आप want to be on TV?" Courtney looked sort of confused.
"Yes it matters!" The whole world could have seen me अभिनय sappy for a सेकंड there in the sunset. If I found the camera I could मिटाइए it and maybe all the other...No the other moments I'd had with Courtney ahd probably already been aired. Probably even the one on the yacht. Crap.
"You can get it tommorow. I'm tired." Heather complained and snatched one of the blankets from my bag and found a spot to sleep.
Courtney shot me a what-is-wrong-with-you? look and made herself a bed.
I sighed. I should probably just forget about it. It wasn't like I was going to find the thing anyway.


"Good morning."
My eyes snapped open. Oh. It was just Courtney. I glanced outside; the sun was just barely rising. So it was what, 5:00 in the morning?!
"Why did आप wake me up so early?!"
"We have work to do, come on." She grabbed my arm and tried to pull me up.
I groaned and rolled over.
"Duncan, seriously wake up." Heather was kneeling on my other side now.
"Fine!" I snapped but mainly because I couldn't avoid both of them at the same time.
"Good." Courtney smirked. That wasn't like her. Weird....
"Ugh, Finally!" Heather complained.
I frowned at her. "What kind of labour are आप two forcing me into now?"
Courtney thrust a bucket in my arms. "Go get और water. The water bottles are empty. "
I glanced reluctantly down at the bucket full of water bottles.
"Fine." I grumbled and started to trudge out of the cave.
"Oh and Duncan," Courtney called after me. I paused to hear her words.
"Don't forget to be back before 7:00!"
I groaned in disappointment and left.
*****************************************************************

Courtney's P.O.V.

"Ah, finally he's gone. I can't believe we had to drink all that water to make him leave." I complained.
"Ugh, yeah." Heather agreed with a groan.
"So who are आप crushing on?" I quizzed her, sounding like one of those annoying stereo-type लोकप्रिय girls playing truth या dare.
"No one. Why?" She glared at me in suspicion.
"Really? Because I've seen the look before."
"What look?" Heather examined me with narrowed eyes.
"The look of someone in love." I smiled dreamily, लॉस्ट in thought.
"Oh because I know you've done it so many times for Duncan." She snorted.
I frowned. "Tell me who it is!" I persisted.
"Admit it."
"I have nothing to admit!"
"You प्यार Duncan."
"Oh, is that all you've got? So what? Everyone already knows that."
"The old Courtney would have denied it."
"Stop changing the subject!" I retorted. "I know आप like someone so just tell me who it is!"
"Forget this!" Heather leapt to her feet and stormed away to the back of the cave. She paused. "Oh look I found Duncan's camera."
"Seriously?" I got up too and trailed over to her.
Heather nodded and pointed to a small black video camera hidden in a crevice of the cave wall.
"Wow. So maybe they did hide them everywhere after all. After TDI we shouldn't have put it past them."
"Oh yeah and that's how we all found out about आप and Duncan's make out session first season."
I rolled my eyes. "Just because you're jealous that आप have no-"
"Excuse me?!" Heather cut me off.
I frowned but didn't bring the subject back up. "Wait, so this means he doesn't need Bree and Tamara as spies."
"No Chris is probably bringing them onto the दिखाना now." Heather rolled her eyes in annoyance. "Ugh, this is Sierra all over again!"
"I hate Sierra. She's so annoying and knows everything about आप and keeps butting in on your personal life-"
"Ugh, I know right? We should get rid off her when we're done with Gwen."
"Agreed." Then I remembered the topic she was avoiding. "So who do आप like?"
Heather groaned.
*****************************************************************

Duncan's P.O.V.

I can't. Believe. They're making me. Get water. At 5:00 in the morning.

I grumbled to myself as I trudged up the hill. And who did she think she was ordering me around like that?!
I almost laughed. आप were the one who asked her to be like this.
Hopefully Everything would go back to the way it was in TDI. But unfortunately people changed.
I smirked. I'd done a pretty good job of changing Courtney back though.
Finally I reached the stream and filled the water bottles with it.
Wait, I'd gotten these last night. How were they done already?! I hadn't even drank a whole bottle of it. What were they up to?

What if they were trying to keep something from me? I abandoned the bucket and raced back to the cave.

I burst through the cave entrance and first noticed Courtney and Heather wrestling on the cave floor. It looked pretty intense. Courtney was yanking Heather's hair as they fought and Heather was digging her nails into Princess's arms.
"What are आप two doing?"
They immediately let go of each other and stared at me in shock. Almost as one they both jumped to their feet and stared at me.
"Nothing." They mumbled in unison.
"So that explains why आप were both fighting on the floor."
They both dusted themselves off and turned back to me offering hopeful smiles.
Then Courtney noticed I had neglected to bring the water.
"Where's our water?!"
"Um....I was chased द्वारा a भालू and had to leave them behind so I could outrun it?" I lied.
"Duncan, there are no bears in Australia." Courtney reminded me with a frown of disappointment.
"Oh. Um..."
"And आप wouldn't have run away if there was one." Heather studied me with an identical scowl to Courtney's.
"You know what, I think I'll go get the water now. Bye!" I raced away without a सेकंड thought and took as much time as possible to get the water bottles. The creek was 45 मिनटों away anyway. And if I walked extra slowly....

द्वारा the time i got back it was 11. Heather and Courtney seemed to have fixed there little... - argument? - and were now regarding me with cold expressions.
"What?"
"Why'd come back early?" Courtney questioned icily.
"Well I figured आप two were up to something. So why were आप fighting?"
"We had a little ...disagreement...on something we didn't want आप to hear." Heather explained without emotion.
I decided they weren't going to tell me what was up so I left with the parting words:"Have fun with your disagreements."

I darted away and after I'd put a few miles between myself and my - cave-mates? - I sat down to think on a large rock overlooking the ocean.

It was beautiful really. Courtney would have liked it. I swallowed as I thought her name. Can आप go three सेकंड्स without thinking about her?!
No, not really.
I sighed and watched a snake slither by. If it had been bigger it would have looked like the one Courtney tripped over.

Okay आप know what?! SHUT UP!!!

I yelled at my thoughts and tried to just sit on the rock and watch. Which was of course, completely boring. How do girls stand it?!

I got up and walked away. Maybe I'd find the other groups या something. Suddenly something attacked me and my mind blacked out.
