Suddenly a loud sound is heard.
Quinn stands up.

" What happened ?!" shouted Quinn.
Anna slapped Shane, the red mark is still visible.

" Let's not team up." said Anna.
Shane furrows his brows.

Anna walks away.
Quinn raises her eyebrows.

Ella smirks.
' Now you start to quarrel with yourselves this early ?'

" What's going on ?" asked Quinn.

" Now we will show the results." said Yuri showing no expression.

| . . YES . . | . . NO . . |
=================
| A S E . . . . Q . . . . . . |

Anna widens her eyes.
" Ms. Quinn is eliminated from the first half."

Shane furrows his brows.
" ..and gets a death penalty."

Quinn smiles.
" Please proceed the final half."

Ella smiles creepily.
Anna turns to Quinn, " ..Quinn ?"

Quinn laughs repeatedly.
" Actually, I told you that I would vote Yes, and Ella would vote No."

Quinn smirks.
" ..so you both would vote the same choice with me, in other words, Yes. After that, I and Ella changed places."

Anna raises her eyebrows.
" You planned all this beforehand ?"

Quinn laughs.
" HAHAHAH ! Of course !"

Anna lowers her head.
Quinn smiles.

" What ? Afraid ?" mocked Quinn.

Anna looks at Quinn.
" Are you sure you would get your ticket ?"

Quinn pauses.
" Of course. Ella would win." continued Quinn.

A laugh.

They look at Shane laughing voicelessly.
Shane looks at Quinn.

" ..so you thought that's all it takes to win ?"

" What's so funny ?" pouted Quinn.

" You think a selfish person like her would care you ?"

Silence.

" She would." replied Quinn.

" Heh.. so you became like this idiot, huh ?"

Quinn stomps away.
Shane turns to Ella.

" If this idiot and me each vote a different choice, then.."

Ella glances at Shane.

" ..it would be the end of you."

Ella shows a smirk as a reply.
" Would she work with you ?"

" She would."

" So you also became like her ?"

Shane stares at Ella.
" She would."

" Hah." mocked Ella, " you just quarreled with her."
Shane smirks.

" Too bad, huh."

" What are you implying ?" asked Ella.

" That.. was all part of my plan."

Ella widens her eyes.
Anna smiles.

Shane glares at Ella.
" It was all an act."

Ella's eyes start to turn red.
" Next time, don't just use your feelings. Use your brain." mocked Shane as he points at his head.

Ella glances at Anna angrily.
' I'll get my revenge on you.'
