�Good evening,� Amanda Byram smiled, as she walked in front of a hotel pool, �and welcome to Paradise Hotel: Tahiti. This season we�ve got some of the most outgoing personalities to date. From Mobile, Alabama, to San Diego, California, these thirteen singles have very little in common. Except for the fact that they�ll live together in the hotel behind me.�

�Tonight they�ll enter the hotel and will take part in the first couple�s ceremony. They all have the goal of lasting to the end and taking home the ultimate prize.� Amanda walked through the hotel lobby and two gentleman opened the double doors for her. �Let�s meet the new guests in Paradise.�

A black limo drove up the marble stone driveway and stopped right in front of Amanda. A tall, brown haired woman stepped out of the limousine. �Hello Ashley!� Amanda hugged her, �Welcome to Paradise!�

�Thank you,� Ashley smiled as a man grabbed her bags. She walked through the lobby and to the pool area where all the women would meet.

Another limo came up, and out came Courtney with brunet hair and a bunch of attitude in her. �Hey Courtney!� Amanda hugged her, �Welcome to Paradise!�

�Uh-huh�� Courtney tried to resist the hug, �Thanks�I guess.�

Jessica came out of the next limo, with dark brown hair and blond streaks in it. She was excited to be in Paradise, an it showed. Amanda did the ritual to Jessica that she did with the other two girls.

�Well hello Miss Katie.� Amanda grinned as she embraced Katie, the blond haired lifeguard from San Diego.

�Well hello to you too Amanda,� Katie said, and continued to the pool area.

The next girl to arrive was Lorie; with dirty blonde hair she wore an oversized t-shirt and regular pants. �Hey Lorie girl!� Amanda waved, and helped Lorie with her bags, �Welcome to Paradise!�

�Thank you!� Lorie beamed; she was more excited then anyone to be on this trip. Not for the money, but for the experience and the people she�d meet.

Tesla stepped out of the limousine, grinning from ear to ear. �Is there where y�all are putting me?� She giggled as she walked up to Amanda.

�Yes it is Tesla,� Amanda hugged her, �welcome to Paradise.�

�Paradise�� she laughed, �that sounds exotic.�

Veronica was the final guest to arrive. You could spot Veronica from a mile away with her bright red hair. �Hey Veronica!� Amanda grinned, �Welcome to Paradise.�

�Thank you,� she smiled as she chewed a piece of gum.

�You can go meet the rest of the girls down by the pool area.�

Once every girl had arrived, the men started to drive in. Their limousines were different though, the ones the men came in were all white. The first man to arrive was Brian. He carried his guitar case in one hand and his bag in the other.

�Hey there Brian.� Amanda put out her arms, �Let me be the first to welcome you to Paradise.�

�Sounds good,� Brian put his guitar case down and hugged Amanda.

�You can go wait in the dining area for the rest of the men.�

Eric was the next guest to arrive. With light brown, shaggy hair, he stepped out of his limousine and looked all around him.

�Eric!� Amanda exclaimed, �Welcome to Paradise.�

�Once Amanda hugged me,� Eric laughed, �I knew things would only get better.�

A short teenager came out of the next limo. Armed with a skateboard, he walked up to Amanda, a little confused.

�Why hello there Jeremy,� Amanda smiled, �I�d like to welcome you to Paradise.�

�Thanks,� Jeremy continued to dining area and started talking to the other guys that have already arrived.

Wearing a cowboy hat, Justin came out of the limousine. �Hey Justin!� Amanda hugged him, �Welcome to Paradise.�

�Howdy.� Justin tipped his hat, �Just kidding,� He laughed, �not everyone in Texas speaks like that.�

Mike was the next guy to arrive, and to him Paradise was a lot different then St. Paul. �Hello Mike,� Amanda said, �welcome to Paradise.�

�Thank you ma�am.�

�Ma�am?� Amanda laughed, �I�m not that old am I?�

�No ma�am.� Mike laughed too, and shook his head.

�Well you�re a very polite gentleman Mike, you can go meet up with the rest of the group.

The final guest to arrive was Scott. His suitcase was filled with gags, including itching powder, buzzers, and water balloons. �Good evening Mike,� Amanda hugged him, �welcome to Paradise.�

�Thank you;� he hugged her back, �I�m sure it�ll be a fun trip.�

Once the guests had all began to meet each other, Amanda turned to the camera and began to talk. �Well there you have it,� she spoke, �the first thirteen people to enter Paradise Hotel. What they don�t know is that we�ve got an explosive first night for them, one that is sure to send them all into confusion.�

�I wonder what all the guys look like,� Tesla asked as she sipped her drink.

�I hope they�re all hot,� Katie commented, �cause girls can�t have fun without hot guys.�

�Unless your drunk,� Ashley joked, �because then you never know.�

�Everyone seems really nice,� Lorie smiled, �it�s been great getting to know the girls. I love them all. They�ve all been really sweet to me.�

�Exactly,� Courtney laughed.

�Hello Ladies,� Amanda walked in, �how are all of you doing?�

�Fine,� Jessica said.

�Good to hear,� Amanda paused, �I�ll need you all to follow me to the hotel lobby. I�ve got a little surprise for you.�

�When Amanda said surprise, I thought she meant naked guys dancing on poles surprise.� Katie giggled, �So I was excited for whatever surprise Amanda had in store for us.�

Amanda led the group of girls to the lobby, where the six guys were all sitting on high chairs. �Welcome to your first couples ceremony.� Amanda smiled, �You will chose a guy based on their looks right now and not on their charm.�

�Awesome!� Katie said, and everyone laughed.

�We�ve randomly drawn your names, and Jessica you may pick first.�

�It was really nerve racking to be the first one to pick, just because I was the guinea pig.�

Jessica walked behind the stools, and put her hands on Scott�s chair.

�I picked Scott because he just smiled at me and I was captivated by it.�

�Tesla, my darling, it�s now your turn. You can still go to Scott, or any other man of your choice.�

�I had my eye on Eric the moment I saw him,� Tesla grinned, �so of course I was going to go after him.�

Tesla walked behind Eric�s chair and put her hands on it.

�Courtney,� Amanda motioned, �you may now go make your pick.� Courtney paced behind the guys for a moment, until she finally put her hands on Eric as well.

�Eric,� Amanda said, �you�re quiet the lucky man here tonight. You�ve got two girls on you.�

�That is correct, two beautiful ones at that,� He smiled.

�When he said two beautiful girls, that just made me fall in love with him,� Courtney beamed, �The way to my heart is through complements. So if any boys at home are watching this, start complementing me!�

�Lorie, it�s now your turn to mark you claim.�

Lorie immediately walked over and placed her hands over Mike.

�The reason I quickly went over to Mike was because I thought he was the most attractive,� Lorie explained, �He had that good boy thing going for him. So I knew Dad and Mom would approve.� She laughed.

�Ashley, it�s your turn.� Ashley walked around every guy, and carefully looked in them in the eye.

�Ashley was the most intimidating,� Scott nodded his head, �she looked like she about to kill someone.�

Ashley stopped walking and put her hands on Justin�s chair.

�I went to Justin because he looked the oldest,� Ashley said, �I mean some of these guys looked fifteen and I�m nineteen. That�s a huge gap.�

�Katie��

�Finally,� Katie laughed.

�It�s your turn.�

Katie quickly walked over to Eric, placing her hands on his head.

�Three girls for Eric?� Amanda asked, �My, my, my, this is getting interesting.� Amanda turned to Veronica, �Veronica you know the drill. Go chose any man you like.�

Veronica walked over, and placed her claim on Justin.

�Justin,� Amanda spoke, �you�re also a very lucky man tonight.�

�It was hard seeing all the girls go to Eric and Justin,� Brian confessed, �I mean it made me think, �Am I not good enough?�.�

�Now Eric, we�ll start with you first,� Amanda informed him, �you must chose Katie, Courtney, or Tesla.�

�Ouch�� Eric sighed, �I�m going to have to go with Katie.�

�Alright,� Amanda nodded her head, �Tesla and Courtney you must now go to different men.� Tesla and Courtney both looked disappointed but continued the ceremony anyway. Tesla walked over and placed her hands on Jeremy and Courtney went over to Justin.

�Justin, it seems like you�ve got three girls tonight as well,� Amanda reminded him, �I�m going to have to ask you to only choose one.�

�I�ll go with Courtney,� Justin said.

�Ashley and Veronica, you guys will have to go find other men.�

�I was very shocked when Justin chose Courtney,� Veronica rolled her eyes. �I mean come on she didn�t even go to him in the first place. She was just on the rebound!�

Ashley walked over and placed her arms around Scott, while Veronica walked over to Brian. �Scott, you�ll make the final decision of the night. Whoever you do not chose will be forced to stay in the singles room for the week.�

�I understand.�

�Please make your decision now.�

�I�m going to have to choose,� he paused, �Jessica.�

�I chose Jessica over Ashley because Ashley had scared me with her whole creepy eyes thing,� Scott raised his eyebrows, �she seemed like she wanted people to be scared of her so they�d I don�t know, pick her? It made no sense to me.�

�Ashley,� Amanda put her arm around her, �I�m sorry but you�ll have to stay in the singles room for the week.�

�That�s alright,� Ashley smiled.

�For the rest of you, each of you will go on a private dinner tonight so you can get to know each other well. Ashley you�ll stay behind with me, I�ve got a special task for you.

�Sounds scandalous.� Ashley giggled, �I can�t want.�

�The dinners will begin in an hour, so I suggest you all get ready. Chop, chop!�

�Amanda seems very angry,� Courtney joked, �I think she wishes she could hook up with someone.�

Veronica was extremely upset over the fact Courtney had gotten Justin. She was angry and hot-tempered and decided to confront Courtney about this by the bar area.

�Hey Courtney,� Veronica smiled, �can I ask you a question?�

�Sure, what�s up?�

�Do you normally steal people�s boyfriends?� She asked, smiling bigger now.

�Excuse me?� Courtney asked, perplexed.

�Last time I checked I went to Justin first, and you come along off the rebound and snatch him up.�

�One he�s not your boyfriend you never even talked to him, and two I�m not the one who made the decision to pick me. Plus Jessica went to Justin before you did.�

�Sweetie,� Veronica smiled at her like she was stupid, �that�s beyond the point. Watch your back, because you don�t know who will just kick you out of here.� Veronica walked away and entered her room, satisfied.

�What the fuck was that all about?� Courtney asked herself as she ordered a drink from the bar.

�I�m glad I ripped Courtney�s ass,� Veronica said, �she deserved it. She should know who she�s messing with here.�

�Guess what Veronica just said to me?� Courtney walked over to Jessica.

�What?� Jessica asked she was looking in the mirror, getting ready for the night.

�She was all like, �Do you normally steal people�s boyfriends?��

�What the hell?� Jessica said, �Why�d she say that?�

�Because I stole,� she made quotes with her hands, �Justin from her, since she was there before me.�

�I was there before her!� Jessica exclaimed.

�I know, that�s what I said,� Courtney sighed, �I want to see her out.�

�Don�t worry,� Jessica put down her brush, �she�ll be gone. It�s already night one and she�s stirring up stuff.�

�It was completely insulting to me.� Courtney angrily spoke, �Who the hell does she think she is? Justin didn�t get her because he didn�t want her sorry ass.�

�Look,� Veronica pointed at Courtney as she walked near the pool area, she was talking with Ashley, �here comes doorknobs.�

�What?� Courtney turned around, and looked at her.

�Your boob�s sweetie,� Veronica nodded her head, �they�re very small.�

�They�re C�s bitch.�

�I don�t know where you live,� Veronica lived, �but they look like mosquitoes bites.�

�Whatever,� Courtney walked away, �go be a bitch, see if I care.�

�She needs to go,� Veronica whispered to Ashley, �she�ll steal anyone. If she�s here next week, she�ll steal one of our guys.�

�I know,� Ashley took a drink of her water, �I can tell.�

Courtney stormed back into Jessica�s room, even more angry then before.

�What�s wrong?� Jessica asked, as they sat on the bed. Scott was in the bathroom taking a shower.

�As I�m walking by to go to my room, Veronica goes, �Here comes doorknobs.� I turn around and said, �What?� and she said �You�re boobs, they�re small.��

�Is she mental?� Jessica asked, surprised.

�I don�t know, but as soon as I walk away, her and Ashley are cackling, and it scares me because of what Amanda said tonight.�

�What did she say?�

�You didn�t hear her?�

�No��

�Well,� Courtney took a deep breath, �Amanda said Ashley had a special job tonight��

�Oh yeah,� Jessica remembered, �It�ll probably scraping up crap from the yard or something.�

�I hope so, I just don�t know. What if she has the job of choosing the couples or something? Then I�m gone.�

�Don�t worry about it,� Jessica hugged Courtney, �nothing bad will happen. When you�re on your date tonight, tell Justin what happened, and he seems to be in with the guys well. We can easily sway the whole hotel against her.�

�What about Ashley?�

�Don�t worry about Ashley,� Jessica reassured her, �Ashley�s in the singles room, she has no power.�

�Charla had power last year�� Courtney reminded her.

�They won�t do the same thing twice,� Jessica laughed, �it�s Paradise. You�re worrying to much. Go get ready for your date.�

Everyone was rushing to get ready to know their partners. Katie and Eric were talking in their bedroom as they prepared for their date.

�So how old are you?� Katie asked as she used a striating iron on her hair.

�Fifteen, you?� Eric replied, as he put his shoes on.

�Fifteen?� Katie sounded shocked, �I thought you were eighteen.�

�Nah,� Eric laugh.

�Wow, you look like my age, eighteen.�

�Thanks,� Eric smiled, �I guess��

�It�s a good thing,� Katie reassured him. �When I first saw you, it was like a party in my panties.�

�Damn,� Eric said hysterically.

�Katie is one of the funniest people I�ve ever met in my entire life. She can make me laugh at the drop of a dime.� Eric grinned, �She�s got a great personality.�

�Ready?� Mike asked Lorie, as they got ready in the Christmas Room.

�Yup!� Lorie jumped out of the bathroom, �Ready as I�ll ever be.� She grabbed his hand and they both walked out of their room, and headed downstairs to the lobby.

�Lorie and Mike,� Amanda greeted them, �you two will be going on a late night excursion sailing around the Tahitian Islands.�

�Great!� Lorie beamed, she was as happy as a clam.

�Getting to know Lorie has been fantastic, she�s a sweet, sweet girl, with a big heart. She was a little shy, but now she�s broken out of her shell.�

The sun slowly rose over the waters of Tahiti. The guests of Paradise arose for the day, all got ready to eat breakfast.

�Mike, what�s this?� Lorie asked as she shook a box wrapped in wrapping paper.

�What does the card say?� He asked, and opened the card. �Although it�s only June, Christmas is six months away, so share some of the holiday spirit, on this beautiful Tahiti day.�

�Should we open it?� She asked, apprehensively.

�Why not?� Mike started tearing the paper off and throwing it on the floor. He opened the cardboard box and inside was a large golden key.

�What is it?� Lorie wondered, as she picked it up. It had The Vault scratched into it.

�Put it on the bed stand, I�m sure we�ll find a use for it later.�

�So how did everyone�s date go?� Ashley asked at the woman�s breakfast area, �I wanna know everything.�

�Eric was so cute,� Katie put her fork down into some eggs, �he was always blushing, and he turned so red when I said he made my panties parties.�

�You said that?� Ashley laughed, �That�s too funny.�

�Katie is starting to rub me the wrong way,� Tesla sighed, �I mean she�s funny, and she�s nice, but some of the things she says are a little too raunchy for me.�

�This orange juice tastes like cum,� Katie joked. �What are the workers at Paradise doing?�

Tesla just remained quiet, a little uncomfortable by Katie�s comments.

�So guys, what happened last night?� Scott asked, as she drank some of his milk.

�Dude, Katie is frickin� hilarious.� Eric laughed, �Some of the things she says are just off the wall.�

�Like what?� Jeremy wondered.

�She said when she saw me it was like a party in her panties and all this stuff.�

�Are you serious?� Scott choked on his food, �That�s hilarious.�

�And all the guys seemed to be mesmerized by her,� Tesla continued, �and at a point it just gets annoying to always hear about Katie.�

Later that day all thirteen guests were asked to ask a question for Pandora�s Box. The questions would be anonymous, so no one would know who asked what. Except for the person who held The Vault key. This person could view what one person asked to another person.

�Good afternoon guests, how was your first night in Paradise?� Amanda asked as she walked over to the guests, all sitting by the pool.

�It was great,� Lorie commented.

�Glad to hear that,� Amanda smiled, �now earlier today you were all asked to submit questions that would be asked to your competitors. These questions will be asked in a ceremony called Pandora�s Box. One by one you will come up and take a question out of the box behind me and ask it to the person it�s directed to. That person then must answer it truthfully or untruthfully.� Amanda turned to Jeremy, �Jeremy you get the honor of going up first.�

�Alright,� Jeremy stood up, and walked over to the box. �Katie, why do you feel the need to be so vulgar?�

�Wow.� Katie laughed to herself, �That�s a loaded question. Um�� She thought for a few seconds, �I don�t think I�m vulgar, I�m just being me and if someone has a problem with that, then so be it.�

�I was the one who asked Katie her question,� Tesla spoke to the camera, �and frankly I have a lot of trouble respecting her. In my eyes it seems she talks about herself in a way that shows she doesn�t have a lot of self respect for herself. So it�s hard for me to respect her when she can�t respect herself.�

�Whoever asked that question should have been brave enough to come and ask it to me, not by hiding behinds Pandora�s Box,� Katie sounded disgusted.

�Lorie, time for you to grab a question.� Amanda instructed.

Lorie put her hand deep into the box and pulled out a question, �Courtney, why are you such a slut? By the way, I don�t think you are.� Lorie complemented her.

�Thank you Lorie, but it looks like Veronica had to be a bitch here.� Courtney turned her head to Veronica, �Why do you hate me so much? I�ve done nothing to you.�

�I�ve talked to you about that before, little miss whore.�

�At least I�m not the one who is a spineless bitch who talks about people behind their back.�

�Hunny, I can see why you�re angry,� Veronica patted her back, �I�d be angry too if I looked like an angry chicken.�

�Fuck you,� Courtney rolled her eyes, �when will you shut up?�

�When you leave.� Veronica grinned.

�Ladies that�s enough,� Amanda interrupted them, �let�s finish the ceremony. Jessica, please come up and pull the final question.�

�Alright,� Jessica grabbed a question, �This one says, Justin, why�d you pick Courtney?�

�I picked Courtney because she was the most attractive out of all the girls.� Veronica�s face cringed when she heard this.

�Well thank you guests that concludes the first Pandora �s Box Ceremony.�

�That was so dramatic,� Katie spoke with Eric, Justin, and Courtney, �Both Courtney and I we�re attacked.�

�I know,� Courtney sighed, �It�s all bullshit.�

�Well no matter what, it�s us four stick together.� Katie commented.

�Definitely,� Eric nodded his head in agreement, �We�ll take this hotel over by storm.�

�I wonder who asked my question though�� Katie asked, �It was surprising to hear it.�

Amanda Byram knocked on the door of Lorie and Mike�s room. �Can I come in?� She asked as she opened it.

�Sure,� Mike got up from the bed, �why are you here?�

�I�ll need you and Lorie to follow me, and bring the key with you.� Lorie and Mike quickly got out of the room and followed Amanda. She brought them to the back of hotel, where there was a small room with The Vault written on it. �This is the Vault,� Amanda showed them, �If you would, please insert your key into it.� Mike placed the key in, and all three walked inside.

�Now you two have the opportunity to see one of the questions asked in today�s Pandora�s Box ceremony.�

�Really now?� Lorie asked, as she let out a mischievous laugh.

�So who what question would you like to see?�

�The one asked about Katie.�

�Alright,� Amanda grabbed a video tape from a nearby shelf and placed it in the VCR player, �Let�s watch, shall we?�

�Katie,� Tesla began to speak.

�Oh my God!� Lorie put her hand over her mouth.

�Why do you feel the need to be so vulgar?�

�Surprised?� Amanda questioned them.

�Very.� Lorie nodded her head, �Very surprising.�

�Now let me remind you, you do not have to share this twist with anyone of the hotel. However someone may get the key to the vault, so it all depends, doesn�t it?�

�Drama�s about to get started in here,� Lorie smiled.
