A/N: Hi! I'm going to thank Sideshow Cellophane 26 for bringing me to this fandom, and this is my first story. Sorry, guys, but it's the rehashed Total Drama Island, first season, with a couple of OCs – so there's 24 competitors. Haley is my main one, while Clay is more to balance things out. I may be playing around with the rules of the story a bit, but I've had this idea in my head for the last few days.

Plot: Haley is the youngest competitor on Total Drama Island, and Courtney, thinking she'll be scared, decides to personally act as her mentor and older sister figure. But what'll happen when Courtney and Haley begin to feel an attraction towards the same delinquent?

And don't ask me why I decided to do Duncan/OC. I'm more of a Trent girl. Blame every Duncan fangirl on the planet that I know of. Please enjoy! The prologue is a little short, but the other chapters will be longer, promise!

Disclaimer: Total Drama is not mine.

The screen flickered to life. A wheely chair with its back to the camera turned around, showing a girl with short blonde hair and a wide smile on her face. "Hi, I'm Haley." she said. "I know I may be one of the youngest to apply for Total Drama, but hey, I'm tough." Her blue-green eyes shone. "Looking for adventure here, guys, and the hundred grand or whatever the prize money is couldn't hurt if I win. Watch out, you other guys, cause I'm already an island girl!"

Chris studied the audition tape thoughtfully, glancing down at Haley Masker's application. The company had already approved twenty-three contestants, from bubbly best friends Sadie and Katie, to budding architect Clay. They were in between Haley and one other, which Chris was given full reign in picking. "I wasn't expecting any fourteen-year-olds to take the fourteen to eighteen limit seriously..." he murmured. Finally, a smirk appeared on his face. "Well, it'll sure create more drama! Looks like twenty-three sixteen-year-olds and one fourteen-year-old will be in our first season!"

One week later...

Haley Masker opened the mailbox as she got home from school, and couldn't help the feeling of apprehension that came when she saw her name written on one envelope. She knew, just knew that this was a rejection letter from Total Drama, the reality show that was due to start its first season in mid-June, when the summer holidays started (since it was exclusively for people 14 – 18...most would still be at school).

"Mom?" she called as she opened the door to her house. She and her mom, Jessica, lived together on their own. Jessica was a young widow, and had been for twelve years, after manslaughter had occurred when Haley's father had stopped by at a bar on the way home and some very drunk men were there.

"How was school, honey?" called Jessica from the lounge. "By the way, did you get the mail?"

"Yes." Haley answered, her face clouding as she trudged into the room. "And I have no homework right now, since school's out come Friday." It was Tuesday, and Total Drama was due to start on the following Monday.

"What's up, Hales?" Jessica asked. "Did the letter from Total Drama still not turn up?" She hadn't been sure about her daughter wanting to appear on a reality show, but Haley had insisted it would be safe, and she wouldn't be missing school, and it would also give her a chance to meet new people – oh, and she knew some juniors from her school were applying.

"It came, all right." Haley said. "But I just know I'm not going to get in." She held out the letter. "My audition tape was just so corny, and I know I was one of the younger auditioners."

Jessica opened the letter, and smiled, handing the letter back. "I think you might want to take a look at this."

Haley scanned the letter...and then screamed. "I got in?! I'm actually going?! And it says it's at a five-star resort, look! This is going to be the best summer vacation of my life!" She hugged Jessica, and then danced off gracefully to call her friends, screaming all the way.

"Don't forget to miss us." Jessica smilingly sighed, half in amusement at Haley's excitement, and half sadly that she wouldn't see her daughter again until late September. She was definitely going to send her a video message from home at some point.

So there's the prologue! I know, it sucks, but we'll get into the show next chapter! Please give me a review before I can screw up!
