A/N: I do not own Nintendo, Mario, Pokèmon, Starfox, Sega, Sonic, Animal Crossing , Legend of Zelda or Survivor.
Format for story: A private interview will have their name in front of it.
ie. Mickey: "I only formed an alliance with Sammy because I need some form of strategy."
At the end of each episode I will post the losing tribes thoughts on the last few days and/or the eliminated contestant.
I started this story because I like the show Survivor. I chose 6 of my favourite video games for this story. It is a bit script based as it is supposed to be a television show. If I have broken any rules, comment and I will change it and make note to change the future chapters. If you haven't watched Survivor or don't know the rules, this story may seem confusing but here is a breakdown:
2-4 tribes are thrown onto an island. This island is usually humid. There are usually 16-20 players who are split evenly into tribes. They compete in two challenges ever 3 days; a reward challenge and an immunity challenge. A reward challenge gifts the winning tribe of the challenge a reward. An immunity challenge gifts the winning immunity from Tribal Council. Tribal Council is where the losing tribe of an immunity challenge visits to vote out one member based on strategy and/or strength in challenge. When about 10 players are left, a merge appears which merges the two tribes into one. After that, it is every man for himself in one tribe. The immunity challenge rewards only one player with immunity from Tribal Council after that. Once only 3 players are left, a jury of voted out members votes for a winner.

I anything seems wrong with Episode 1, comment. Any typos, who you think will go next? Character impressions (Yes, I know. All of them seem quite vicious).

Episode 1: Want to be in my... *snicker*... Alliance?
"Hello and welcome to the first season of... SURVIVOR: VIDEO GAME ISLAND!" Our host, Mario exclaims. The camera zooms to see a large blimp with the Nintendo logo. "We are above Game Centre, the centre of all games. An island, just off of Game Centre territory will be where all 20 contestants live for the next 42 days."
"Lets meet our tribal members!" He exclaimed as he points to the 20 contestants behind him. "We have our first tribe: The Mercury Tribe."
The five Mario game characters wave.
"We have, Yoshi, the green dinosaur. Peach, the lovely princess of the mushroom kingdom. Diddy Kong, resident of Kongo Bongo. Queen Boo, the graceful but scary ghost queen. Luigi, the brother of myself, Mario."
Peach: "I may seem sweet, but I have a dark side."
Diddy Kong: "I'm so sick of being Donkey Kong's shadow. In this game, I'm going to be the hero."
Luigi: "I'm a little bit scared of going into the island. What if there are bunnies? Please, no bunnies."
"Lets meet our second tribe, Venus. This tribe is filled with our distant neighbours of Animal Crossing."
Five contestants wave to the camera.
"We have, Tortimer, our reptilian mayor. Dora, the shy, quiet mouse. Wolfgang, the outgoing wolf. Mable, the content, timid tailor. We also have our kind, spirited dog, Bones." Mario says.
Bones: "I'm hoping to be the nice, kind contestant and go far through my alliance. But, out of last shows, I know that the nice guys doesn't go too far." Bones frowns, thinking.
Tortimer: "I'm probably going first. I don't really understand the younger people in my tribe."
Mable: "Being a tailor is boring. If I win, I'm spending the money on myself so I don't have to be a tailor."
Dora: "The guy in the green suit looks kinda cute. But he's also a bit weird. He was twitching and repeating, "please, no bunnies."."
"We also have our next tribe, the Jupiter Tribe. This tribe has our friends, the Pokèmon. We have Riolu, the fierce but friendly fighter. Gardevoir, the strategic mind controller. Simisage, the rough, tough monkey. Buneary, the sweet, shy rabbit. And Floatzel, the strong, enduring weasel."
Floatzel: "My plan is too eliminate my team... Than everyone else." Floatzel laughed at the thought.
Buneary: "There is a little mouse on another tribe. She seems nice. If I ever make it too the merge, I'll make an alliance with her."
Gardevoir: "If any of them think they're going to win this game, they're wrong. I'm going to be the puppeteer. A puppeteer needs what? Puppets."
Simisage: "Look. I'm here for the money. Friends come second. My family needs the money, I'm getting the money."
"Our last tribe involves characters from three different games, Legend of Zelda, Sonic the Hedgehog, and Starfox. We have, Zelda. The graceful princess of Hyrule. Sonic, the speedy hedgehog. Shadow, the silent, suspicious competitor. Fox, the stubborn, get things done, tribal member. And Falco, the blue bird with attitude." Mario exclaims.
Falco: "I may seem like I'm Fox's friend, which I am, but not in this game. Of course I'll make an alliance with him, but not for too long."
Shadow: "That Gardevoir pokemon... She seems evil. I like that in a girl."
Zelda: "I'm not going to announce my strategy. I'm a princess. Why should I?"
"4 tribes, 20 members, 42 days!" The camera flashes through all the contestants.
Theme music plays.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
4 tribes... 20 players...
Mercury: Peach, Yoshi, Diddy Kong, Luigi, Queen Boo
Neptune Tribe: Fox, Falco, Zelda, Sonic, Shadow
Venus Tribe: Tortimer, Dora, Wolfgang, Bones, Mable
Jupiter Tribe: Simisage, Gardevoir, Buneary, Riolu, Floatzel
42 Days...
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The blimp slowly lands. "Ok, nice to see you all made it. Lets get things started with a challenge. An immunity challenge to be exact." Mario states. Gasps fill the blimp.
"That's right. One of you is going tonight." Mario slowly says. "So, here's the challenge. At each of your camps, is a large flag with your tribe name. All of your tribe members must race there. One tribal member must then come back and give me the flag. First three teams to do this are safe. The others, well, you have a date with me at tribal council."
Tortimer: "I'm going for sure if we lose."
Zelda: "I can't believe they did this. We don't even get to experience the game, and they're gonna knock one of us off."
"What are you waiting for. Maps outside. Go, go, go!" Every tribal member rushed out and into the shrubbery, racing to their camps. All except Tortimer and his tribe who were slowly walking as a group.
"Slow and steady win the race." Mario cracks.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Jupiter Tribe
The tribe raced through the jungle, Simisage snapping the branches.
"We have to be first." He says over his shoulder. The rest of his tribe just follows him with little thought. Simisage waves the map. "We're almost there."
Gardevoir: "Well, someone seems controlling. Then again, I can't talk for what I'm about to do later on."
"Explain to me again, why I have to jump with all my strength to see the other teams?" Buneary asks.
"You need to see their progress." Gardevoir mocks.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Mercury Tribe
"Just keep walking. We have a long way to go." Peach commands.
"Who died and made you queen?" Diddy Kong asks.
Diddy Kong: "She doesn't get to be the star of the show. That my job!"
"Well, we have a dead Queen behind us." Peach snaps. She looks back to Queen Boo.
Diddy Kong moves back.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Venus Tribe
"Hey, Tortimer. You mind speeding it up?" Wolfgang asks.
"Hey, Wolfgang. Be nice. If we lose we can just vote him out. Fantastic Four, amirite?" Bones whispers.
"Yeah, I suppose. He's just slowing us down so much. That brings me to another thing." Wolfgang replies. He lowers his voice. "Want to be in an alliance? I'm going to ask Dora as well." Wolfgang asks.
"Uh... Sure. But only if Dora is too."
"I heard you guys. Your kinda loud." Dora says. She looks over her shoulder to see Mable and Tortimer trailing. "But I don't think they heard. Sure."
"Its settled. We vote off Tortimer first, then Mable." Bones says.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Neptune Tribe
"It kinda sucks." Fox says.
"What sucks?" Zelda asks as she limps through the jungle.
"The fact that every other tribe is from a single game. And they merge three games into one for us. They already know each other. We have never seen each other." Fox says.
Sonic snickers. "But I thought that one night was special." He whines.
Zelda: "Look up immaturity in the Hyrule dictionary. You'll see a picture of Sonic sitting there." Zelda says as she pulls a Hyrule Dictionary out of her satchel. "Neanderthal." She whispers.
The rest of his tribe ignores him.
Fox: "And with that, we have someone to vote out. That's only if he's bad at challenges though..."
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Jupiter Tribe
"Hey, guys.... I... See the.... Camp.... Over there." Buneary blurts as she jumps up and down.
"And you said it wouldn't work." Simisage accuses Riolu.
"I don't really care at this point. Lets just get this dumb challenge over with." Riolu states.
The tribe runs through the bushel and bursts out, into the clearing.
"There's the flag." Floatzel points. Simisage runs over to it.
"You guys stay here. I'll run back over to Mario." He sprints back into the vegetation.
"Vote him off if we lose?" Gardevoir asks.
Gardevoir: "Although he is good at the challenges, he's annoying."
"Definitely." The rest of the tribe says.
Riolu slowly steps over to Floatzel. "Want to be in alliance?"
Floatzel: "I needed a strategy. So I said yes. Sure the pipsqueak is probably weak. I can use that."
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Mercury Tribe
Diddy Kong slowly tredges through the bushel, his tribe far ahead. Queen Boo slowly moves back.
She snickers. "Want to be in an alliance? You need to vote out Peach, though." She asks.
"I'm in if she's going. But, why did you laugh before you asked?" Diddy replies
"Force of habit. I'm going to try to get Luigi in too." Se moves up ahead slowly.
Diddy Kong: "Anything to get rid of that princess."
"Hey, Luigi." Queen Boo yells. Luigi turns.
"Hi, can you protect me from the bunnies?" He asks.
"Sure thing. As soon as you make an alliance with me."
"Sure, just get rid of those treacherous bunnies."
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Neptune Tribe
"Hey, Zelda." Fox and Falco yell. "Wanna be in an alliance?" Falco yells in front of Sonic and Shadow. They quickly rushed forward and grabbed Zelda's arm.
"Ignore them. Come with us." Shadow says. Zelda falters. "You're better off with us." Sonic adds.
"I... I think I'll take my chances." Zelda brushes her shoulders.
Shadow: "And now if we lose, Sonic and I are screwed."
Sonic and Shadow race forward in defeat and rush to the campsite.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Venus Tribe
"So, what to do once we have voted out Mable and Turtleman?" Wolfgang asks.
"Then, we win and make it too the merge. Hopefully on the same tribe. This whole four tribe thing has happened before." Bones said. "They merge into 2 tribes... Then one."
"Ok. Well until the merge, let's hope tweedle dumb and tweedle dee leave." Dora adds.
Mable: "I heard what they said. I wonder which one of us was Tweedle Dumb..." Mable looks up. "Funny cloud in the sky."
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Jupiter Tribe
"Do you thinks he's coming back?" Riolu asked. All four pokemon sat, bored.
"Probably. If he isn't it will save the work of us having to vote him off. He's just so energetic." Buneary answers.
Simisage tore through the bramble, flag in hand. "Need to get there soon."
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Mercury Tribe
"So, you're definitely getting rid of those bunnies?"
"Yep. As long as you vote Peach." Queen Boo reminded Luigi.
"Oi! Quiet down back there." Peach yells behind her as she slowly tredges through the bushel. "My dress is getting cut."
"Hey, Yoshi. Are you going to say something at all?" Diddy asks. Yoshi gives him a puzzled look and shakes his head.
"Ok, then. Well. Hope we're almost done with this dumb race thing." Diddy says.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Neptune Tribe
"Finally!" Shadow yells as he runs into the clearing. Sonic pushes ahead and grabs the flag.
"I'm racing back to Mario." He rushes back into the bramble again just as Zelda, Fox and Falco leave it.
"So... Are we voting Sonic out next?" Zelda whispers.
"Definitely." Falco quickly replies. All four tribal members sit onto the ground.
"And now we play the waiting game." Shadow sighs.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Venus Tribe
"Are we close to the camp yet, Mable?" Wolfgang asks.
"I don't really know. I lost the map a while ago." She replies.
"Ok, seriously!" Bones turns. "Why didn't you tell us! We're probably off in no where land right now and if we lose this challenge, I can guarantee that you or that old turtle will be voted out next!"
Bones: "Not really playing the nice game I want to. Stupid people make me stupidly angry." Bones shrugs.
"Ok, then. How about we just keep walking. We can't be too far off track." Mable suggests.
"You're going anyway. So sure, why not." Bones mutters sarcastically.
Mable: "I'm screwed. I just better hope I'm leading them the right way." Mable looks down in defeat.
"Tortimer, if either of us get an immunity idol, we need to use it well." Mable says.
"Sure if I get the immunity idol, we use it to get Bones out. I did not like the outburst just then." Tortimer answers.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Mercury Tribe
Yoshi happily starts to walk into the campsite and plops down onto the ground.
"Finally. We're here." Peach puffed. Yoshi started to look up and noticed a fruit hanging above him.
"I'll go back and return the flag." Diddy slowly walks into the bushes, already exhausted.
Yoshi starts to jump into the air and float towards the fruit. "Lets start building a fortress against those bunnies." Luigi says as he picks up a log.
Peach: "I'm surrounded by idiots. One is scared of bunnies. BUNNIES! Another doesn't talk. One keeps stealing my spotlight. And the last one is a dead queen who laughs uncontrollably! Why can't I just get a good team?"
Peach, Luigi and Queen Boo start to build a shelter as Yoshi dangles from the fruit, slowly taking bites out of it.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Jupiter Tribe
Simisage burst out of the vegetation and ran towards Mario.
"Wow. That was... Quick. Here is your immunity idol." Mario hands Simisage the immunity idol. He runs back into the bush to get back to his team.
"Attention. Jupiter Tribe has completed the first challenge. They are safe for tonight." Mario calls into a speaker. It echoes around the island.
"He did it!" Buneary yells on the other side of the island.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Venus Tribe
"They are safe!" Wolfgang yells angrily. "We haven't even done half the challenge and they already completed it."
The tribe trudged on and finally made it to their camp.
"I'm going to return the flag." Bones says, glaring at Mable.
Bones: "I have no chance at being the nice guy anymore." Bones frowns.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Neptune Tribe
Mercury Tribe
Venus Tribe
Sonic rushed through the jungle as Bones and Diddy Kong jumped over a log together. Eventually they were all neck and neck, racing towards Mario. Bones tripped over a twig. Sonic fell into a puddle. Diddy made it to Mario second.
"Congratulations. You are the second tribe to complete this challenge. You are safe."
Bones and Sonic both trudged to Mario. Sonic made it first.
"Congratulations, Sonic. Your tribe is safe. Bones, one animal will leave tonight from your tribe." Bones looked down in sadness.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Venus Tribe
"We lost." Bones said as he walked back into camp. He looked up and saw his tribe had already built a shelter and started a fire.
"Wow. You guys work quick." Bones said.
"We decided that we weren't going to sit around for hours." Wolfgang said.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Mercury Tribe
As Diddy Kong walked into his tribes camp, he discovered that they had done nothing.
"I've been gone for hours! You haven't done a thing?" Diddy asks.
His tribe looked around and pointed to Yoshi.
"He fell from this red fruit he was eating." Queen Boo explained. "We had a shelter until Yoshi fell on it."
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Neptune Tribe
Sonic entered his campsite to see a pile of coconuts and a fire ready.
"We have the food. We have the warmth. Anyone want to help me make a shelter?" Sonic asked. Only Shadow raised his hand.
Shadow: "I'm the only one who got the coconuts and fire ready. I do not want to go home anytime soon. So I'm going to suck up. As long as Sonic goes before me, I'll be happy."
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Jupiter Tribe
Simisage walked back into his tribes camp.
"Lets get started on a fire." He stated as he looked at the shelter.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Venus Tribe
Dora looked around. "So. Who are we voting off tonight? We only have about an hour until we go to Tribal Council."
"Well, Tortimer is weak and will not help in challenges. Mable is not helpful. We lost this challenge because of her." Wolfgang reminded his alliance. "I think we should vote for Tortimer."
"I personally think we should vote Mable." Bones said. "She made us lose this challenge. At least Tortimer could keep up."
Dora stood thinking. She stated her reasons and the tribe left for Tribal Council.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Tribal Council
The five tribal members walked into the large hut. A bonfire stood in the middle with 10 stools on one side. With another on the other side. Mario sat on the lone one.
"There are five torches behind you. Please pick one up and light them on the bonfire." Mario said. The tribe members picked up a torch each and lit it. "In this game, fire is your life. If your fire goes out, so do you."
"Lets get started. Bones, who do you think pulled their weight this challenge?" Mario asked.
"Well, personally I think everyone but Mable. She lost the map to our camp and didn't even tell anyone. I think she's the reason we lost." Bones answered.
"That was straightforward. Mable, how do you feel after hearing that?"
"I feel like I'm about to be voted out. But, I might just have the thing to be safe."
Dora, Wolfgang and Bones all look at her cautiously.
Dora: "I Really though she had the hidden immunity idol."
"Dora, how is camp life so far?" Mario asked.
"Well, its only been one day. It's hard to tell. I really think its going... Well?"
"Tortimer, who do you want gone tonight?" Mario asked the last member.
"Don't you think that's getting past the whole point of the game?"
"I suppose. With that its time to vote." Mario concluded.
—————
Voting Order: Dora, Bones, Tortimer, Wolfgang, Mable
"Bones, come on. You could have won. You were so close to winning but you lost. We made it to the camp at the same time as the others even though I did lose the map." Mabel stated bluntly as she held up her vote. (Bones)
"Look. Your outburst and the fact that you were neck and neck with the other tribes means you could have won. Don't blame it on Mable." Tortimer said as he wrote down Bones' name. (Bones)
—————
"I'm going to go tally the votes." Mario leaves and comes back with the urn.
"Ok. Once the votes have been counted, the decision is final." Mario opened the urn.
All five tribal members looked nervous as Mario raised the first vote.
"One vote Tortimer." Mario raised the second vote.
"One vote Bones, One vote Tortimer."
"That's two votes Tortimer, one vote Bones."
"Two votes Bones, two votes Tortimer." Mario raised the last vote.
"First person voted out of Survivor: Video Game Island, Tortimer."
Tortimer raised his bag and his torch and walked over to Mario. Mario snuffed his torch out and Tortimer walked out of the hut and onto a trail.
"Well, you voted out Tortimer first. If you lose the next challenge. Who's next?"
The tribe slowly walked out and grabbed their bags.
Tortimer: "I really wanted to continue further. It would have been nice, but I just didn't do well enough."
Bones: "Mable, you're next."
Dora: "It was too much of a risk to vote for Mable. I mean, what if she did actually have the immunity idol?"
Mable: "I hope we win the next challenge. I'm definitely going to keep riding my hidden immunity idol."
Wolfgang: "Why do you need my opinion. I'm sure I'm just adding to what Dora and Bones said."
––––––––––
Next Time on Survivor:
Tensions rise as alliances clash.
"I hate you!" Bones yelled as he fished his bag out of the creek.
"Peach better be going next." Diddy said.
"Shadow, we need to think of a plan." Sonic whispered.
"Zelda, are we voting Shadow when we get a chance?"
"Simisage next?" Buneary asked Gardevoir.
––––––––––
A/N: My thoughts on Tortimer are mixed. He was obviously supposed to be the older contestant who gets voted out first. But at one point I was going to do a Rudy in Season 1, by making Tortimer go further than he should have. He didn't really have too much to do though, so I just went with him going first. He was at one point, supposed to go to the final five with Mable (don't ask me how). But I realised how unbelievable that would have been. So he is now, last place.
"Hello and welcome to the first season of... SURVIVOR: VIDEO GAME ISLAND!" Our host, Mario exclaims. The camera zooms to see a large blimp with the Nintendo logo. "We are above Game Centre, the centre of all games. An island, just off of Game Centre territory will be where all 20 contestants live for the next 42 days."

Shadow: "That Gardevoir pokemon... She seems evil. I like that in a girl."
Zelda: "I'm not going to announce my strategy. I'm a princess. Why should I?"
"4 tribes, 20 members, 42 days!" The camera flashes through all the contestants.
Theme music plays.

Mercury: Peach, Yoshi, Diddy Kong, Luigi, Queen Boo

"Who died and made you queen?" Diddy Kong asks.

"Well, we have a dead Queen behind us." Peach snaps. She looks back to Queen Boo.
Diddy Kong moves back.

Floatzel: "I needed a strategy. So I said yes. Sure the pipsqueak is probably weak. I can use that."
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Mercury Tribe
Diddy Kong slowly tredges through the bushel, his tribe far ahead. Queen Boo slowly moves back.
She snickers. "Want to be in an alliance? You need to vote out Peach, though." She asks.
"I'm in if she's going. But, why did you laugh before you asked?" Diddy replies
"Force of habit. I'm going to try to get Luigi in too." Se moves up ahead slowly.
Diddy Kong: "Anything to get rid of that princess."
"Hey, Luigi." Queen Boo yells. Luigi turns.
"Hi, can you protect me from the bunnies?" He asks.
"Sure thing. As soon as you make an alliance with me."
"Sure, just get rid of those treacherous bunnies."
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Neptune Tribe
"Hey, Zelda." Fox and Falco yell. "Wanna be in an alliance?" Falco yells in front of Sonic and Shadow. They quickly rushed forward and grabbed Zelda's arm.
"Ignore them. Come with us." Shadow says. Zelda falters. "You're better off with us." Sonic adds.
"I... I think I'll take my chances." Zelda brushes her shoulders.
Shadow: "And now if we lose, Sonic and I are screwed."
Sonic and Shadow race forward in defeat and rush to the campsite.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Venus Tribe
"So, what to do once we have voted out Mable and Turtleman?" Wolfgang asks.
"Then, we win and make it too the merge. Hopefully on the same tribe. This whole four tribe thing has happened before." Bones said. "They merge into 2 tribes... Then one."
"Ok. Well until the merge, let's hope tweedle dumb and tweedle dee leave." Dora adds.
Mable: "I heard what they said. I wonder which one of us was Tweedle Dumb..." Mable looks up. "Funny cloud in the sky."
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Jupiter Tribe
"Do you thinks he's coming back?" Riolu asked. All four pokemon sat, bored.
"Probably. If he isn't it will save the work of us having to vote him off. He's just so energetic." Buneary answers.
Simisage tore through the bramble, flag in hand. "Need to get there soon."
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Mercury Tribe
"So, you're definitely getting rid of those bunnies?"
"Yep. As long as you vote Peach." Queen Boo reminded Luigi.
"Oi! Quiet down back there." Peach yells behind her as she slowly tredges through the bushel. "My dress is getting cut."
"Hey, Yoshi. Are you going to say something at all?" Diddy asks. Yoshi gives him a puzzled look and shakes his head.
"Ok, then. Well. Hope we're almost done with this dumb race thing." Diddy says.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Neptune Tribe
"Finally!" Shadow yells as he runs into the clearing. Sonic pushes ahead and grabs the flag.
"I'm racing back to Mario." He rushes back into the bramble again just as Zelda, Fox and Falco leave it.
"So... Are we voting Sonic out next?" Zelda whispers.
"Definitely." Falco quickly replies. All four tribal members sit onto the ground.
"And now we play the waiting game." Shadow sighs.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Venus Tribe
"Are we close to the camp yet, Mable?" Wolfgang asks.
"I don't really know. I lost the map a while ago." She replies.
"Ok, seriously!" Bones turns. "Why didn't you tell us! We're probably off in no where land right now and if we lose this challenge, I can guarantee that you or that old turtle will be voted out next!"
Bones: "Not really playing the nice game I want to. Stupid people make me stupidly angry." Bones shrugs.
"Ok, then. How about we just keep walking. We can't be too far off track." Mable suggests.
"You're going anyway. So sure, why not." Bones mutters sarcastically.
Mable: "I'm screwed. I just better hope I'm leading them the right way." Mable looks down in defeat.
"Tortimer, if either of us get an immunity idol, we need to use it well." Mable says.
"Sure if I get the immunity idol, we use it to get Bones out. I did not like the outburst just then." Tortimer answers.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Mercury Tribe
Yoshi happily starts to walk into the campsite and plops down onto the ground.
"Finally. We're here." Peach puffed. Yoshi started to look up and noticed a fruit hanging above him.
"I'll go back and return the flag." Diddy slowly walks into the bushes, already exhausted.
Yoshi starts to jump into the air and float towards the fruit. "Lets start building a fortress against those bunnies." Luigi says as he picks up a log.
Peach: "I'm surrounded by idiots. One is scared of bunnies. BUNNIES! Another doesn't talk. One keeps stealing my spotlight. And the last one is a dead queen who laughs uncontrollably! Why can't I just get a good team?"
Peach, Luigi and Queen Boo start to build a shelter as Yoshi dangles from the fruit, slowly taking bites out of it.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Jupiter Tribe
Simisage burst out of the vegetation and ran towards Mario.
"Wow. That was... Quick. Here is your immunity idol." Mario hands Simisage the immunity idol. He runs back into the bush to get back to his team.
"Attention. Jupiter Tribe has completed the first challenge. They are safe for tonight." Mario calls into a speaker. It echoes around the island.
"He did it!" Buneary yells on the other side of the island.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Venus Tribe
"They are safe!" Wolfgang yells angrily. "We haven't even done half the challenge and they already completed it."
The tribe trudged on and finally made it to their camp.
"I'm going to return the flag." Bones says, glaring at Mable.
Bones: "I have no chance at being the nice guy anymore." Bones frowns.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Neptune Tribe
Mercury Tribe
Venus Tribe
Sonic rushed through the jungle as Bones and Diddy Kong jumped over a log together. Eventually they were all neck and neck, racing towards Mario. Bones tripped over a twig. Sonic fell into a puddle. Diddy made it to Mario second.
"Congratulations. You are the second tribe to complete this challenge. You are safe."
Bones and Sonic both trudged to Mario. Sonic made it first.
"Congratulations, Sonic. Your tribe is safe. Bones, one animal will leave tonight from your tribe." Bones looked down in sadness.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Venus Tribe
"We lost." Bones said as he walked back into camp. He looked up and saw his tribe had already built a shelter and started a fire.
"Wow. You guys work quick." Bones said.
"We decided that we weren't going to sit around for hours." Wolfgang said.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Mercury Tribe
As Diddy Kong walked into his tribes camp, he discovered that they had done nothing.
"I've been gone for hours! You haven't done a thing?" Diddy asks.
His tribe looked around and pointed to Yoshi.
"He fell from this red fruit he was eating." Queen Boo explained. "We had a shelter until Yoshi fell on it."
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Neptune Tribe
Sonic entered his campsite to see a pile of coconuts and a fire ready.
"We have the food. We have the warmth. Anyone want to help me make a shelter?" Sonic asked. Only Shadow raised his hand.
Shadow: "I'm the only one who got the coconuts and fire ready. I do not want to go home anytime soon. So I'm going to suck up. As long as Sonic goes before me, I'll be happy."
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Jupiter Tribe
Simisage walked back into his tribes camp.
"Lets get started on a fire." He stated as he looked at the shelter.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Venus Tribe
Dora looked around. "So. Who are we voting off tonight? We only have about an hour until we go to Tribal Council."
"Well, Tortimer is weak and will not help in challenges. Mable is not helpful. We lost this challenge because of her." Wolfgang reminded his alliance. "I think we should vote for Tortimer."
"I personally think we should vote Mable." Bones said. "She made us lose this challenge. At least Tortimer could keep up."
Dora stood thinking. She stated her reasons and the tribe left for Tribal Council.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Tribal Council
The five tribal members walked into the large hut. A bonfire stood in the middle with 10 stools on one side. With another on the other side. Mario sat on the lone one.
"There are five torches behind you. Please pick one up and light them on the bonfire." Mario said. The tribe members picked up a torch each and lit it. "In this game, fire is your life. If your fire goes out, so do you."
"Lets get started. Bones, who do you think pulled their weight this challenge?" Mario asked.
"Well, personally I think everyone but Mable. She lost the map to our camp and didn't even tell anyone. I think she's the reason we lost." Bones answered.
"That was straightforward. Mable, how do you feel after hearing that?"
"I feel like I'm about to be voted out. But, I might just have the thing to be safe."
Dora, Wolfgang and Bones all look at her cautiously.
Dora: "I Really though she had the hidden immunity idol."
"Dora, how is camp life so far?" Mario asked.
"Well, its only been one day. It's hard to tell. I really think its going... Well?"
"Tortimer, who do you want gone tonight?" Mario asked the last member.
"Don't you think that's getting past the whole point of the game?"
"I suppose. With that its time to vote." Mario concluded.
—————
Voting Order: Dora, Bones, Tortimer, Wolfgang, Mable
"Bones, come on. You could have won. You were so close to winning but you lost. We made it to the camp at the same time as the others even though I did lose the map." Mabel stated bluntly as she held up her vote. (Bones)
"Look. Your outburst and the fact that you were neck and neck with the other tribes means you could have won. Don't blame it on Mable." Tortimer said as he wrote down Bones' name. (Bones)
—————
"I'm going to go tally the votes." Mario leaves and comes back with the urn.
"Ok. Once the votes have been counted, the decision is final." Mario opened the urn.
All five tribal members looked nervous as Mario raised the first vote.
"One vote Tortimer." Mario raised the second vote.
"One vote Bones, One vote Tortimer."
"That's two votes Tortimer, one vote Bones."
"Two votes Bones, two votes Tortimer." Mario raised the last vote.
"First person voted out of Survivor: Video Game Island, Tortimer."
Tortimer raised his bag and his torch and walked over to Mario. Mario snuffed his torch out and Tortimer walked out of the hut and onto a trail.
"Well, you voted out Tortimer first. If you lose the next challenge. Who's next?"
The tribe slowly walked out and grabbed their bags.
Tortimer: "I really wanted to continue further. It would have been nice, but I just didn't do well enough."
Bones: "Mable, you're next."
Dora: "It was too much of a risk to vote for Mable. I mean, what if she did actually have the immunity idol?"
Mable: "I hope we win the next challenge. I'm definitely going to keep riding my hidden immunity idol."
Wolfgang: "Why do you need my opinion. I'm sure I'm just adding to what Dora and Bones said."
––––––––––
Next Time on Survivor:
Tensions rise as alliances clash.
"I hate you!" Bones yelled as he fished his bag out of the creek.
"Peach better be going next." Diddy said.
"Shadow, we need to think of a plan." Sonic whispered.
"Zelda, are we voting Shadow when we get a chance?"
"Simisage next?" Buneary asked Gardevoir.
––––––––––
A/N: My thoughts on Tortimer are mixed. He was obviously supposed to be the older contestant who gets voted out first. But at one point I was going to do a Rudy in Season 1, by making Tortimer go further than he should have. He didn't really have too much to do though, so I just went with him going first. He was at one point, supposed to go to the final five with Mable (don't ask me how). But I realised how unbelievable that would have been. So he is now, last place.
I anything seems wrong with Episode 1, comment. Any typos, who you think will go next? Character impressions (Yes, I know. All of them seem quite vicious).
