Group Iron Fangs finally gathered all their supplies.

"I'm really tired now," Alex said after bringing the moose and leaves.

"Me too. I want to eat. This is so stupid. It's just wasting time," Hyeon-U said, dropping the leaves and moose to the ground.

"Let's have lunch first, then," Lor said, glancing at the other groups. They noticed the others also bringing supplies from the woods, looking just as tired.

"Okay then. Let's leave these here and have lunch," Alex agreed, and the four of them went to eat. They saw some members of the other groups having lunch as well.

After finishing their meal, the four of them returned to where their group was.

"What happened to the branches and moose we brought? I'm pretty sure we had enough," Lor said, looking at their supplies. It was clear that some things were missing.

"Looks like someone stole them," Alex said angrily. "Who the hell stole our stuff?" he shouted, loud enough for the others to hear.

"Our leaves are missing too," Stas said, looking around.

"I saw Sissy hanging around near Alex's group. Maybe she stole them. You know how she is," Zack said.

"No, I didn't. I brought the branches and the moose from the woods," Sissy said defensively.

"No one asked you to bring moose or leaves, Sissy. Why did you bring them?" Peggy, the leader of Sissy's group, asked.

"I was trying to help the group," Sissy said.

"Now we doubt where you got all those things from," Felipe said to Sissy.
"This is a survival game. You're supposed to protect your stuff instead of complaining that someone stole it. If you actually had to build a shelter, would you still complain if you lost your supplies?" Stella said, sounding like she didn't want to return the missing items.
"I don't like cheating," Peggy said firmly.

Sissy started laughing loudly. "Oh, stop it, Peggy. We all know you're trying to act nice just to get Stas's attention. You were a bully, Peggy. You're not a nice person, so stop pretending you are. And Felipe, you're only here because you beat up some kids at school. It's funny how suddenly you two want to act like saints," Sissy said, still laughing.

"And what about you, Sissy? You're here because you spread rumors about others, leading to horrible situations. You even manipulated younger kids to do bad things. You're worse than all of us," Peggy said, glaring at Sissy.

"No matter how hard you try, Stas isn't going to like you, Peggy. You're not as pretty as you think," Sissy laughed, making Peggy visibly uncomfortable, knowing her weakness was her body image. "You're still fat, no matter how much dieting you do," Sissy added, laughing again.

But Peggy wasn't fat. She was thin because she barely ate, driven by her insecurity about her body. Ironically, Sissy was heavier than Peggy.
"I'm not fat!" Peggy screamed.

Stas, from the group Rebel Ghosts, walked over to Peggy and gently held her arm. "Relax, Peggy. She's just trying to play mind games with you," he said calmly.

Peggy looked at Stas, her eyes filled with tears.
"And you know I like you. Just ignore her and don't let her mess with your mind," Stas said, and Peggy felt comforted by his words.

"I might have been bad before, but I'm trying to be better. But you, Sissy—I feel sorry for you. It seems like you don't want to change and are happy living your life as a jerk," Peggy said, walking away from the confrontation.

"You can take your stuff if you can recognize it," Peggy said to Stas and Alex.

Stas and Alex came over to inspect the leaves, moose, and branches. Devon and Lor joined them since they were the ones who had gathered the branches.
"This is the only branch I'm sure we brought. The others all look the same," Lor said, glancing at Peggy.
"And all the leaves look the same too," Stas added.
"The moose as well," Alex said.

"Sorry about that, guys. Maybe just take half of them," Peggy said in a tired voice.
"It's okay, Peggy. I'll find more leaves. You keep them," Stas said.
"No, no, that's unfair. Take half, guys," Peggy insisted, and Felipe agreed with her. So, they divided the leaves, branches, and moose evenly.

"Do you think these branches are enough?" Lor asked, eyeing the pile.
"No, these aren't enough," Alex said.
"I'll gather some more branches," Devon said.
"I'll come with you. We need to finish this quickly. Lor, you can start building the shelter with Hyeon-U," Alex said.

Devon and Alex then ran into the woods to collect more supplies.

When Devon and Alex returned, they saw the group Scarred Souls in the middle of a huge fight. Sissy was flailing her arms and legs, aiming at Peggy and Felipe. Peggy was screaming at Sissy, while Felipe looked furious, barely controlling himself because he couldn't hit her since she was a girl. Stela stood nearby, staring helplessly at the scene.

Suddenly, Sissy struck Felipe, and he lost his temper. He hit back, and Sissy fell to the ground. Although Sissy was bigger than Felipe, it was clear that he was much stronger.

"He hit me... ah, my ankle! Madam Sarah... he hit me!" Sissy screamed dramatically. It was obvious she wasn't seriously hurt; she had only fallen, but she was overacting.

Mark and Jake arrived at the scene and decided to eliminate the group Scarred Souls from the game. They escorted the group members to detention.

"Thank God she's not in our group," Alex said.
"Yeah, she's such a jerk," Lor added.

Devon didn't like Sissy either, but he chose to stay quiet.

By 5 p.m., all the group members had finished building their shelters. Everyone looked exhausted after working the entire day.

"The winning team is Iron Fangs!" Sarah announced, and the members of Iron Fangs cheered, jumping and screaming with joy. Devon couldn't believe his team had won.

"And the winner of the fire-making challenge without matches is Devon Merrill," Sarah said. The members of Devon's team cheered, jumping and clapping for him. Devon couldn't believe his ears. He never thought he'd win anything in his life. Some might think this was nothing, but for Devon, who had never won anything before, this felt like an incredible achievement.
