What Now? Ending 7

And yet one more of our amazing endings for "What now?"

Shortly afterwards, as we were arguing, a tiny plane appeared with the producer. He was holding a megaphone and then suddenly he said: “Don't go crazy, this is also a stage of the programme, so please stop arguing and listen carefully. We've set down a plane deep within the jungle and you must find out where it is. To help you with this task, you can use the gadgets you collected in the plane before. As you can see, they've been bleeping for a while. When two of the gadgets are near, they start bleeping and the higher they bleep, the closer you're of the plane. Now, we'll explain the rules of this stage:

First, you'll be divided in two groups of 3 people. Each group will have a gadget, and you'll need to find the other one so you can find the plane later. You'll get an envelope with a clue inside it in order to help you to find the gadget. The clue will tell you a location of the island, and when you arrive there you'll have to pass a test to get the second clue. As you know, there's only one gadget left, so the fastest group will be the one who'll get it first. Once one time has reached the gadget, the other time will have to get a gadget from them, anyway they want (that means you can even fight, as long as you don't kill each other). The second and last rule is that, the team which loses the game will have to stay in this island for a month surviving all by themselves as a punishment. So, that's all, you can start from... now!

Everybody was shocked at these words but, maybe for a survival instinct that had rised inside me since I fell from the plane, I started to run with the people of my team as fast as I could and, so on, we reached the first test. It consisted in walking on a woods without losing the balance. We could handle to do it in two minutes and then we rushed to the next test. This test was even harder than the last one, because you needed to dive into mud to find the clue and, at the same time, within the mud there were poisonous spiders and snakes. I was slightly scared a the beginning, but just the idea of spending a month in this living hell cheered me up to do it, and then I made out to find the clue. So we headed to the last test and actually, this one was the easiest one. We just needed to use some ropes to jump and get to a rock. We easily did it and then started running to the place where the gadget was. When we arrived the place where the gadget was supòssed to be, we heard some sort of engine noise and then, we saw a plane flying in the sky above us, leaving the island. Shortly after, the producer said that the other team had won the game, and that we'd have to stay in the island.

“What does this mean? Is he serious?” those were the questions I had in that precise moment. My partners started sounding him out with questions frantically, but there was no answer. The plane had already left.
