Survivor: The Beginning

is LukePrower's first Survivor fanfiction. In this season, 16 castaways go back to where Survivor began and play the game the same way the first cast did, in a twist-less season.

Ryan Rick beat Benny Howard in a 4-3 vote to win the title of Sole Survivor.

Season Summary
16 castaways were divided into the tribes Sabah and Sarawak. At Sarawak, Helga was lazy and didn't work. At Sabah, Pen and Bob argued for the role of leader. Quick friendships formed between Ryan and Charlie, Natalie and Jennifer, and Violet and Vanessa. It was clear that Walter was going to be beneficial to Sarawak. At Sabah, Olive brought Pen and Bob into an alliance along with Peter and Victoria. Pen named the alliance The Force. Sabah proved to be weak physically, so The Force took out the three alliance outsiders, Natalie, Jennifer and Billy. Walter tried to strategize, but decided to provide fish instead. Helga really irritated Jane, so Jane formed an alliance with Walter, Ryan, Charlie and Benny. The only time Sarawak lost a challenge, Helga was voted out. Victoria and Olive created a women's pact on Sabah to vote out the men. Pen was successfully voted off. Peter then made a men's pact with Bob, so Peter and Olive went into a tiebreaker. Olive lost and was eliminated. Victoria and Walter, representing their tribes, created the merged tribe "Sarabah". The three Sabah members moved to Sarawak. Ryan and Victoria formed a friendship, while Benny and Peter formed a friendship as well. Ryan decided to betray Victoria. However, Benny told Peter that Violet would be voted out. Victoria was eliminated, followed by Bob. With Peter as the only Sabah left, the unstoppable duo of Ryan and Charlie agreed to make a men's alliance. They brought in Walter and Benny and voted out Violet. They then turned on Jane and voted her out. Vanessa and Peter tried to stick together, but Vanessa was voted off when Peter won Immunity. Ultimately, Peter was voted out, leaving only Sarawak members. In the final four, Walter made a pact with Benny to take down the unstoppable duo of Ryan and Charlie, but Benny turned on Walter and eliminated him. Ryan, Charlie and Benny were the final three. Benny won the final Immunity and eliminated Charlie, bringing Ryan to the final two. When facing the jury, both Ryan and Benny received hatred for their rough strategies. However, Ryan won four out of seven jury votes and became the sole SURVIVOR.

Author's Notes

 * I came up with the idea for this because I wanted to make a season without any recurring twists such as Hidden Immunity Idols or Final 3. I think the best way to play SURVIVOR is the original way.
 * This is the first season to consist of just one gender for more than one episode.
 * Neither of the final two received any votes against them.
