Total Drama Hawaii (TDI Season 2)
Author's Entry Note: This is a fan fiction story containing the ideas and possibilities of TheIrishHighlander (yeah-10101 on deviant art). I do not own TDI, TDA, TDWT or its characters, as this story is pure fiction. Though all of the OC characters, which will be listed at the end of the chapter, are owned by me and are not to be used in any other story without my consent.
I got to say, I'm excited to finally be posting this. After over a year of fixing and reediting the plot and characters I'm finally posting the very first chapter of Total Drama Hawaii (TDI Season 2). Though I am a bit nervous about my writing style since well, I'm not exactly the greatest. This story will contain many of the canon relationships, as well as some fanon ones and new relationships/friendships involving my original characters. Also, other characters will be making cameo or small time appearances in the story along the way. They will be credited and seen in the next chapter. But for now, let's start!
Chris: Warning! Total Drama Hawaii features stunts and challenges either performed by professionals, or under the supervision of professionals, to ensure the safety of campers and animals alike. Accordingly, MTV and the Producers of T.D.H. Must Insist that no one attempt to re-create, or reenact, any of these stunts or challenges. Seriously dude. You could get really messed up.
Chapter 1 - Same Old Game and Host
The beautiful sunny shores of the Hawaii. Tranquil, peaceful and pleasant. And about to get one hell of a wakeup call as the loud roaring of a helicopter flew straight over Honolulu Harbor heading for the giant island looming in the distance: Palaumu. Inside the helicopter was a very familiar face, donning his signature green Hawaiian style shirt and khaki pants while he adjusted his headset and gave the cameras a wink as they began to roll…
"Aloha and Mahalo! We're coming to you live over the shores of the island of Palaumu, here in the Hawaiian Islands! I'm your host, Chris McLean - dropping Season TWO of the hottest new reality show, on television, right now!" With a nod the camera panned right, showing a new face also wearing a headset and wearing some blue tinted shades. "And with me this year is my new partner in-crime, world survivalist and former Special Forces member from the Outback - Paul Xavier!"
Paul gave a wave, his shades pulled off just as the chopper landed right next to the beach and both he and Chris jumped out. Slowly as they walked along the beach Paul spoke out in his thick Darwin accent. "So here's the deal, folks. We've invited thirty campers to be spending the next three months right here on this beautiful island in the Pacific. They'll be joined up in two teams, compete in challenges and will either win a reward or kick someone off."
The scene quickly changed to a huge bonfire with plenty of seating for 30 as Paul continued. "And where will their fate be decided? Why right here at the 'Dramatic' Campfire Ceremony where each week, all but one camper will received, a marshmallow…" He tossed one for himself and Chris, both eating it down. Chris continued it.
"But in the end, out of all thirty campers only one will remaining standing and will win the ultimate grand prize yet here on Total Drama: FIVE - MILLION - a-DOLLARS!" he grinned, opening up a large suitcase containing the cash prize. Quickly it shut and almost broke the camera before both Chris and Paul nodded to one another. "However, if these campers think this time around will be easy cause of the new locale, they're seriously wrong!"
Paul chuckled and slipped his shades back on. "The challenges will be harder, the weather more brutal, and the wild dangerous animals on this island more vicious. So, with that in mind, do these campers have what it takes to win? Find out - right now - here on TOTAL…DRAMA…HAWAII"
Chris soon waved to the cameras just as they came back on the air. "Alright, welcome back. Now then, let's say hello to our first 15 campers. Should be interesting to see how our fellow campers have been since last season"
The first boat pulled up to the dock, and out jumped Ezekiel, still wearing his 'Zed' bling and carrying his backpack crooked on his shoulder. "Yo yo you Hawaii! What's up in this hiz-wahhhh!" Quickly he tripped over a nail on the dock, falling onto his face as Paul and Chris flinched at the scene.
"Allo Zeke" offered Paul as he helped the teen up onto his feet. "Welcome to Hawaii. Just for the sake of me, Chris and the fans…please don't try get voted off first again?"
Zeke gave a quick salute and slowly walked over to the edge of the dock. "Yes sir Mister Sydney sir"
"Mister Sydney huh? Boy, already the nicknames are flying" Chris chuckled, Paul only rolling his eyes as the next boat arrived.
Both Chris and Paul then flinched at the sounds of Eva screaming out in anger as she stormed up onto the dock and approaching the two co-hosts. "Hey Eva, what's shak-" he started off before being grabbed by the neck and throttled.
"You think I wanted to come to another stupid island and play this game all over again!" she demanded to know while Paul stepped back, staying out of this little fight as Chris held up her contract.
"You signed a legal contract Eva that states you're on this show for at least two seasons, so I don't see why you're all upset about getting a second chance at winning…"
Eva's response was more throttling, ruining Chris' perfect hairdo while the next boat began to arrive at the dock. Quickly, out rushed over Noah, holding Eva's shoulders.
"Whoa there tiger, ease up now. Don't need you killing anyone on the first day" Noah tried to talk some sense into the angry girl as she held onto Chris's neck tighter. Meanwhile Paul stepped back, not wanting to get involved if Eva snapped.
"Close your eyes. Take a few slow breaths…and, Woo-saa." Eva calmed herself down, closing her eyes, soon breathing in and out gently before repeating Noah's last line. And in a surprise to Chris and Paul, she finally let McLane go and relaxed her shoulder.
"There, better now?" Eva silently nodded as she picked up her bag and walked over to the edge of the dock near Zeke.
Paul and Chris stood in amazement as they were about to speak, but Noah interrupted. "Anger Management and Therapy can go a LONG way…trust me"
Paul then asked, "And I assume YOU were the one to tell her all that stuff?"
Noah nodded solemnly. "You guessed it. And trust me, that was the easy part. Although I wouldn't have minded to see her ruin Chris' shirt with blood…I'd rather have my first day go by a lot smoother" With that, Noah walked past them, standing next to the other two as Paul helped Chris up, who was still a little dizzy after being shaken about.
"Why yes M-Madam, I would love you to make my Salisbury Steak rare…" he muttered, laughing softly before he fell onto his back and passed out.
"Well, while Chris takes a nap, guess I'll be the one to introduce the rest of our campers"
Next to come off the boat was Justin, wearing no shirt this time which instantly got Eva to look and stare at his beauty. Though Noah quickly got her out of his trance by snapping his fingers in front of her. "Hey hey hey! Focus Eva…"
"Justin! Welcome to Hawaii" smiled Paul, soon shaking Justin's hand.
"Likewise Paul." Was all he said before giving his usual wink towards Eva, making her faint as Noah shook his head.
"Oh, hey Justin. Come back again to try and get all of the girls to get voted off so you can try to win it all?"
Justin pretended to be shocked and held a hand to his chest. "Why Noah, I'm hurt! What ever would give you that idea?" A smile however crept back up onto his face as he let out a soft laugh. "Oh yeah…I'll probably do it again"
His eyes clenched tightly as he held his ears at the piercing screams of Katie and Sadie, both cheering out as they arrived. Paul thought he blew an eardrum before reaching his hand out to welcome them.
"Katie and Sadie…uh, welcome to Hawaii!" he yelled out as he tried to clean out his ears from the screams. Katie spoke first.
"Ohmygod Sadie, this place sooooo reminds me of Wawanakwa!"
Sadie gasped and mocked how Katie was excited. "No way! That's exactly what I was thinking! Except for the palm trees and cleaner water an-"
"Okay okay" smiled Paul, waving his hands gently to calm the two giddy BFFFL's so they wouldn't scream and pierce anymore ears today. "Just go ahead and stand next to the others." Katie and Sadie nodded, giggling as they carried their bags over to the other campers. Noah wasn't all too ecstatic to be here as the two girls but at least they shut up…for the time being.
Next who would come off the boat was a familiar looking face towards them all. The wanabee athlete: Tyler. However, he looked a little…different than last time. Katie, Sadie and Eva couldn't help but stare for a moment as Tyler jumped off the boat. He still wore his usual red tracksuit pants and shoes, but wore a tank top and looked a lot more built up on top. His muscles actually accented out almost like Justin and his hair had gotten trimmed too.
"Tyler" smiled Paul, extending his hand and shaking his as Tyler walked down the dock. "Welcome to Hawaii, mate. And I gotta say, you look a lot better this time around. Been working out eh?"
Tyler smiled, showing off his arms and muscles before just nodding with a content sigh. "Yeah, helps when your big bro gets a big scholarship for football in the states. Thought I'd be able to show just how good I am this time around"
Noah could only roll his eyes at Tyler's self-centeredness as he showed off his abs and forearms to the girls who could only watch and sigh, Katie and Sadie fainting from the sight. "Great, we have yet another Justin, only buffer and dumber."
It was just then they heard the familiar scream of a fiery red head as the next boat approached the dock, Izzy waving her arms over at Paul and the rest of the campers. "Hey guys! Hey! Hey! Hey! Izzy, has arrived!"
Everyone just seemed to groan at her arrival, although Eva and Noah seemed more or less pissed off that she arrived. It was her fault that she got to Total Drama Action and they ended up on the sidelines.
Paul was the only one smiling, other than the giggling and babbling Chris who was still knocked out on the ground. "Aloha Izzy! Welcome to Hawaii" he smiled, shaking her hand while Izzy shook his incredibly fast, shaking the new co-host a bit and causing his shades to fall down. "So nice to meet you Paul! And this place is awesome! Got into a barfight with some local sailors back in Honolulu and managed to steal their boat! Hope they don't mind" she laughed while the others weren't surprised. Same ol' Izzy.
Paul looked up to notice it wasn't the same boat they used, but rather a military PT boat with the markings of the U.S. Navy inscribed on it. "Uhhh, let's hope we can get it back to them then."
Izzy quickly walked over but noticed the sour look on her teammates' faces. "Cmon guys, why so down?"
Eva spoke up first. "You know damn well why! You left me and Noah behind and you took all of the glory to go to TDA!"
Izzy just grinned, not able to think about it at the moment. "Aw come on guys! That's all in the past! Now we're all one big happy team again!"
"Actually, it was only a few months ago. You expect us to just welcome you back with open arms after what you did?" commented Noah with a raised eyebrow. Izzy only reached out and hugged both of them in a very tight bear hug. Noah just sighed. "…welcome back, Izzy" he said as he weakly hugged Izzy back.
As some of the show's crew and staff removed the PT boat and stowed it away, the next boat arrived with Cody, wearing a Lei around his neck. Looks like he had been enjoying what Hawaii had to offer before coming back to Total Drama.
"And the Code-Meister has arrived! Welcome to Hawaii" Paul greeted again with a smile, shaking Cody's hand as he waved to the others. "Thanks Paul, great to be here. Uh, did you guys remember to-"
Paul was one step ahead and nodded. "Yes Cody, the Medical Crew have alerted us to your allergies and have me to give you these" he smiled, handing Cody a small box filled with epi-pens. "Better to be safe than sorry." With that, Cody walked back down towards the rest of the campers.
He managed to get a few smiles from Noah, Tyler and Izzy. Katie and Sadie on the other hand were too distracted by the island and their new camp to talk to him, and Eva well…she was Eva. Fat chance she would say hello.
Next was Beth, smiling and waving to everybody as she easily got off the boat and walked over to Paul, hugging him as he nodded back. "Ah Beth, glad to see you're liking the new scenery" Beth was over ecstatic about it.
"You bet! Me and Lindsay went to check out the volcano with some Hawaiian tour guides. Too bad when we were flying over in the helicopter she thought it would be a good idea to toss her empty lipstick into it…" she rubbed the back of her head. She did have a few burn singes from when the volcano erupted on them and almost got them killed. Still, Beth and Linday were still BFF's so there was nothing that would change that.
"Then I see you two have been pretty busy! Safe to say there are no volcano's on this island" he chuckled, Paul seeing Chris finally coming to and rubbing his head.
"Guh…what happened?"
Paul shrugged and helped Chris up to his feet. "Well, I had to say hi to some of the campers while you were napping on the job"
Chris quickly stood up and nodded, his energy back in a flash. He didn't need to be fired on his first day as co-host of the show because he was napping…no thanks to Eva. "Yep! And Now I'm ready to keep going! So, who do we have left?"
Paul pulled out his clipboard with the list of campers, Beth walking past them towards the group while he checked the names off.
"Let's see…next is our CIT"
And sure enough, in came Courtney while showing a bit of a snoody face. Granted she was still upset over the fact of being voted off from Total Drama Island and then getting kicked off Total Drama Action even after her lawyers got her onto the show.
As she readjusted her shirt she carried her bag off the boat as Chris was more than welcome to say hello to her first. "Courtney, nice to see you in one piece. How's the love life been?" Courtney however glared right back at Chris when he mentioned about her 'relationship' with Duncan.
"Well, if you MUST know, it's been going slow. Duncan hardly comes around or bothers to listen to me anymore! It's like every time I try to show him how to properly do things he acts as if he's not paying attention!" She pointed this out immediately to Paul as Chris wasn't paying attention anymore.
"Sorry, you whine something?" he asked with a chuckle, Courtney only groaning out. "See! This is exactly what I'm talking about! So let me ask YOU Paul…you're nothing like Chris here… …are you?" she asked now a bit worried. The last thing anybody here needed was a New Chris.
Paul however reassured her. "Trust me Courtney. I'm just here to make sure your lives aren't completely miserable as hell during your stay. But don't expect me to go easy on you because of that" he smirked, Courtney only shrugging as she picked up her bags. "Well…at least you're honest about it"
But just as Courtney seemed to have calmed down, the next boat arrived with Harold as he slowly walked off along with his keyboard and backpack in hand. Instantly, Courtney screamed out. "You!" she shrieked as she lunged at Harold and tackled him, trying to throw punches and kicks at him. Quickly Noah and Tyler literally 'peeled' her off of Harold as she continued to throw her fists around while Paul checked up on Harold.
"You bastard! You sneaky little bastard! It's YOUR fault I ended up losing my chances on the set last season!" It appeared she still never let go of her grudge against him for illegally changing the votes to be kicked off the first season. Even after she managed to sue her way back onto the show during Action she still got kicked off…again.
"Please! Shield me! She's gone crazy!" feared Harold as Paul stood in front of him, his arms crossed and apparently not amused by this little charade.
"Alright, that's enough. You finished Courtney?" he asked, Courtney however still growling in anger.
"DOES IT LOOK LIKE I'M FINISHED YET?" she yelled out, almost blowing Paul's sunglasses right off. Quickly however, he pulled out a bucket of water and splashed her face with it, soaking her completely. Sadly, Tyler and Noah also got wet. "…gee, thanks. I don't think we were the ones who were freaking out" groaned Noah while Tyler just dried his shirt off.
Courtney seemed to have finally snapped out of it. "…thanks. I needed that." Paul just smiled, nodding to both Noah and Tyler as they quickly let her go, as she walked slowly back, Harold still shaking in fear however. "I think you're safe now mate. Though note to you, NEVER piss off THAT girl, alright?" he asked as Harold let out a weak nod.
In a quick dash he grabbed his things and rushed over near Tyler's side, still scared Courtney she would try and attack him again. Hopefully she was calmed down enough not to tear poor Harold limb from limb.
Eventually some smiles returned as Trent jumped off the boat and waved to everybody. Paul walked over before offering his hand to shake. "Trent, nice to see you. Welcome to Hawaii" Trent smiled and shook his hand.
"Hey man, good to be here. Heard about some of your survival stories on the Discovery Channel dude. Very nice" Paul chuckled and nodded, always a bit modest about his stories. "Thanks mate. I'll tell ya, trying to survive out in the Amazonian Jungle isn't as easy as camping in Central Park for the night. But probably just as dangerous"
Trent was about to ask something else but soon noticed Courtney drenched and Noah and Tyler trying to dry themselves off. "What happened to them?"
Paul looked over his shoulder and summarized it for him. "Ah, that. Courtney freaking out and trying to strangle Harold, snapped her out of it by tossing water onto her, those two were in the way…the usual, mate" Trent nodded, though still thought someone was missing. Then again, not everyone had arrived just yet from the boats yet. Cody already knew whom Trent was looking for…Gwen.
Things had never been the same for Gwen or Trent when they broke up the previous season, and on National Television even. Still, both of them now had a hard time just talking to one another. Cody felt sad indeed. Gwen was now single again, but that didn't cheer him up enough. It was that he helped hook Trent up with Gwen so they could be together. He just hoped Gwen wouldn't be too saddened about it.
Making a bit more of a grand entrance than the others, Paul grabbed a megaphone and pushed the wrong button at first, causing the wailing alarm to go off and everyone flinching and covering their ears. "Oops, sorry. That was the alarm button. Ah, here we go" Quickly pushing the right one he raised it up. "And now making her entrance for Total Drama Hawaii, here she is…Bridgette!" Everyone looked towards the water, soon spying the surfer girl riding a big wave heading towards them. Finally able to see her surfing skills in action they cheered her on as she rode back and forth before riding it to the dock and jumped up.
Paul smiled and shook her hand. "Awesome ride, Bridgette. I got to say I'm surprised to see you here. Thought you would've stayed in Honolulu and rode the waves off the shores of Oahu"
Bridgette smiled back as she set her board down. "Thanks Paul. Just glad to be back here with my friends…where's LeShawna and Geoff? And Gwen?" she asked, noticing they hadn't arrived yet.
"Don't worry about it. They'll be here soon enough. Just go ahead and stand with the others. Shouldn't be too much longer" Paul directed her over to the other campers, as she picked up her board. And once again in a humorous moment, Chris was whacked in the head by Bridgette's surfboard.
"Ow! Darn it, that hurt! Again!" Everyone else just chuckled quietly, trying not to get any glares from their old host. Paul couldn't help but chuckle a bit too, soon clearing his throat and going silent when Chris's stare went towards him.
After a few awkward seconds, the next boat arrived, as Tyler's face quickly lit up with a smile. Lindsay, in all of her busty glory was waving her hands towards them, smiling while she also was wearing a colorful lei. "Tyler!" she screamed out, her boyfriend quickly running to the edge of the dock. "Lindsay!" As the boat came to a halt, Lindsay ran to the edge of the boat, extending her arms out to embrace her boyfriend. Tyler did the same, but as they both leaned in to hug one another, they accidentally bumped heads instead. And if that wasn't bad enough, both of them fell over into the water, getting each other wet.
Chris and Paul flinched when they collided and fell into the water, but sighed relief when seeing the two of them surfacing and still okay. Last thing they needed was someone getting hurt before the challenges even began. Tyler surfaced first, rubbing his forehead as he frantically looked around for his girlfriend. "Lindsay? Lindsay!" he yelled, only to jump back as Lindsay surfaced in front of him. "Oww…you okay Tyler?"
Tyler nodded, sighing in relief she was okay. "Yeah, are you?" She nodded back, Lindsay being held in Tyler's arms. Soon they held one another and began to make out, getting a few catcalls and 'ooh's from the crowd. Paul just shook his head while Chris walked over with a fishing hook and pulled them both out of the water. "Okay, okay, show's over. Go and dry off and stand over with the others."
Their lips didn't separate for a second, slowly walking over to the others and continued to make out. It didn't take long before the other campers just stared a bit. "Jeez, you guys are as bad as Geoff and Bridgette" commented Justin. Even he felt a bit uncomfortable around these two lovebirds making out. Though he did get a glare from Bridgette on the side.
Soon though everyone began to cheer as everybody's favorite and happy camper, DJ, showed up next. Paul just gave him a high five while he soon got hugs from Bridgette, Beth and Lindsay. "Hey DJ! Are you going to be making our meals again this year?" asked Beth, everyone soon showing begging eyes and shouts that this was true. The last thing they wanted was to be forced to eat Chef Hatchet's questionable slop he happened to call food.
"Sorry guys, wish I could though" DJ sighed and saddened a bit, but Paul soon brightened up his spirits. "Actually, that's only half true. Every Friday night whoever wishes to cook for everyone can do so" This brought back everyone's smiles as DJ happily walked over to the group.
"WOOHOOHOOHOO!" screamed out the party animal Geoff who was waving his hat in the air and waving to the dock. "What's up Hawaii!" His voice rang out all over the island, definitely waking up or disturbing the animals. The campers however cheered on Geoff as Bridgette quickly rushed over to him and before Paul could even say hello, the two of them were deep in a trapped love lock of death it seemed, kissing as if their lives depended on it.
Noah rolled his eyes at the scene, as this was the same thing back near the end of Total Drama Island and all through TDA. "Actually, forget what I said. Watching them making out is worse than seeing Tyler and Lindsay do it"
After only a few seconds, Paul was using a crowbar to separate the two as he saw both of them blushing a bit and chuckling nervously, rubbing the backs of their heads. "You can save make out time for later. Right now…can we PLEASE continue?" He asked with a bit of a annoyed tone. Quickly so they wouldn't upset him anymore, the two rushed over to the others and stood silently, still blushing a bit but held one another's hands.
LeShawna didn't need a flashy entrance before her big booming voice called out to everyone. "Hey y'all! What's up everybody?" Another round of cheers and calls came out to the soul sista' made her way across the dock, high fivin' Paul and Chris as she walked with her bag in tow. Harold of course was more than happy to see her, with his girlfriend waving back, making the nerd blush.
It was then the sounds of a loud speedboat came cruising towards the dock, Duncan behind the wheel and screaming out of how much fun he was having. "WAAAAAHHHHOOOOOOOOO YEAAAAHHHH BAAAABY! YIPIEE KIYAH MOTHERFU-" Of course, the sounds of the boat managed to cut off the last bits of his screaming.
Courtney on the other hand was unimpressed, groaning as her 'boyfriend' came sailing towards them. "Well, finally he decides to show up! And what a show off!"
However, Cody gulped nervously as he could see the boat picking up speed. "Uh, shouldn't he slow down?"
Chris shook his head. "Nah, nothing to be worried about Campers."
Paul however looked a bit more worried when he saw the boat was aimed straight towards the docks. "I think we should worry - now! RUN!" he screamed. In a flash the campers screamed out as they grabbed their bags and made a run for the beach. And in action movie fashion, the boat rammed straight into the dock, destroying half of it as wood splinters and planks sailed everywhere.
A few managed to duck and avoid getting hit…all except for Tyler, who while he was trying to keep Lindsay's head clear got nailed directly on the forehead with a plank, sending him flying until he laid flat on his back in the sand, out cold.
"Oh no! Tyler! Uh…I…does anybody know CPR?" Lindsay cried out as she knelled down next to her boyfriend, trying to wake him. Harold shook his head. "I don't think CPR is going to wake him up Lindsay. He's obviously suffered from a minor concuss-" But as always, Lindsay had jumped the gun and was trying her very best to give CPR. Though it was obviously apparent that Tyler was okay because he was smiling, his eyes closed and pretending to be knocked out in order to get a kiss. What a rube.
Duncan eventually jumped out of the boat, tossing his bag onto the half destroyed dock and began to walk towards the beach. Paul and Chris were still trying to brush debris off themselves as Courtney angrily stormed up to Duncan. "Are you out of your f***ing mind Duncan!" she screamed out, Duncan thinking he would need a hearing aid after that. "Pardon me Princess?" he asked with a huff, watching Courtney go ballistic.
"This is by far, BY FAR, even worse than your little naked new years party scandal, the most irresponsible, reckless, hazardous and life threatening stunt you've pulled yet! Do you WANT to die before you turn 20?"
Duncan however chuckled and held his hands behind his head, stretching out a bit. "Well, it would be quite the story to tell huh?" Courtney was unmoved.
"Yeah, as if I want to tell my friends I'm related to a crazed psycho like you!" Duncan smiled and put an arm around her shoulder, trying to get her to calm down. "And you know you can't help but like it, am I right?"
"Like it?" Oh boy, was Courtney steaming. And they could see she was LITERALLY steaming as she looked like a volcano ready to erupt and totally slaughter Duncan. Chris had his own personal camera ready to catch the action unfolding in front of him. "You think after all of that, smashing into the dock, almost blowing up the boat after you've probably stolen it and being all reckless, and you expect me to like it?" But then, her reaction seconds later was quite the opposite, wrapping her arms tightly around his neck and pulled him into one hell of a passionate kiss. "God, I love it! Being so wreckless and destroying that dock - it was so…so…"
"Awesome?" asked Cody with a chuckle, knowing it was the same line Gwen and Owen would've said at a time like this.
"Yes! Yes, awesome! That's the word I'm thinking of!"
Duncan smirked, about to respond back but was pulled yet again into another kiss. Chris groaned out in disappointment. Yet again another couple making out instead of clawing each other to pieces or arguing.
As Duncan and Courtney eventually managed to stop kissing on their own and stood next to one another on the beach, everyone's faces soon turned to glares. The one girl they dared not to see again on the show. The one who made everyone miserable during Total Drama Island and thankfully got voted off early during TDA. The one whom they all despised…Heather. She was all normal smiles as Chris and Paul welcomed her, though tried to help her off the wrecked dock.
"Why is the dock wrecked and what is that boat doing here?" Wow, five seconds and already she was complaining. Must've been a new record.
"Just a slight little accident…involving a certain green haired teenager…but besides that, welcome to Haw-" Paul's introduction got cut short as Heather didn't wish to hear the whole 'Welcome to the Island' bit.
"Yeah yeah. Just tell me where to stand until we're in our teams"
Paul and Chris both shared the same annoyed look, and pointed over near the others, all of whom were not happy to see her.
"What? No one is happy to see me here? Nobody?"
They all replied a big fat 'NO' right back at her, Heather shrugging. "Can't win them all I suppose"
Then, their responses turned to smiles and cheers, Heather at first thinking it was her. "Well, finally some recognition" she smiled, though watched as the others walked straight past her, seeing Gwen waving at the campers. Heather just huffed and shook her head. "Showoff"
As the boat pulled up to the beach, the driver lugged the bags over to the edge and dropped her stuff off. "I've got it!" yelled out Cody, quickly rushing over to try and grab her things before they would get soaked by the soft sand. Instead he got hit by the bag hard as it was tossed off the boat and fell back into the soft sand, almost crushing him. "Uh, little help?"
Noah and Tyler soon walked over, pulling the bag off Cody and dusted him off while Trent got to walk over and help Gwen off the boat. "You okay dude?" asked Tyler, Cody nodding. "Yeah, I'm fine."
Shoot! Looks like sadly Cody lost his chance to say hello to Gwen up close. Still, at least she was finally here which brought a happy smile to his face. Course he couldn't help but feel a hint of jealousy for Trent as he helped Gwen off, hearing her calling Trent a 'charmer'. Still, the two of them were just friends now, nothing more. Not after the whole '9' incident during TDA.
"Gwen! Glad you could make it!" smiled Paul, walking over as Gwen shook the new co-hosts hand, not even bothering with Chris and ignored him for now. "Thanks Paul. Although now being here I'm not so sure about the location"
Paul shrugged, not minding it since he was used to all sorts of different locations to deal with when he was a Commando. "Nah, it's nothing to worry about. If the humidity doesn't get to ya, the Tigers, Snakes, Spiders, Poisonous Frogs and who knows what else will kill ya" he chuckled.
Some of the other campers however didn't share the same sentiment that Paul had, all becoming nervous and scared of some of the dangerous animals he listed that could be on the island. "Ah, don't worry about it. The area here is totally safe…I think"
Gwen didn't feel much better after that but at least he didn't seem like the usual jerk Chris was. Slowly she walked past Chris, plain ignoring him before he could even say his own hello.
"What? Is seriously no one excited or happy to see me? C'mon! It's me! Chris McLean!" Everyone just talked amongst one another quietly, Chris becoming annoyed as Paul walked over and shrugged. "Sorry mate, guess you'll just have to wait 'till the competition starts. Might change their tune a bit, though who knows"
And last but certainly not least to arrive on the island for the original campers, Owen smiled as he got to be on the more luxurious yacht from TDI instead of the ugly looking fishing trawler everyone else was stuck on. Well, except for Izzy and Duncan who both stole a boat. Lucky chubby guy.
"Wahoo! Paul! Chris! What's up?" he yelled out with cheer as he quickly rushed off the deck and gave both hosts crushing hugs. The other campers cheered for Owen's return, some of course laughing at Paul being crushed along with Chris.
"Nice to meet ya too big guy! But do you mind putting me down? We still have a lot to do before we start" asked Paul kindly as Owen set them down. "Sorry, I'm just so excited to be here!" Owen then gasped when seeing his friends and rushed over.
"Hey guys!" he spoke with a smile. Lindsay was the first one to come over. "Owen! It's so awesome to see you again! I can't WAIT to tell you about the fun me and Beth had here in Hawaii!"
Heather finally sighed, having enough of 'happy time with Owen', and just wished for the show to start. "Okay, now that we're all here, can we PLEASE start the show now?"
Paul and Chris traded glances before shaking their heads. "No can do. All of the campers are not here yet"
"You're joking, right?" Heather didn't think she needed to deal with new people, especially since she couldn't handle staying with the everyone else.
Chris only shook and gave a glare at Heather. "Note Serious Face. We're not joking here."
Paul then explained. "Since this show is being funded by MTV…along with a bunch of other sponsors, we were inclined to allow America to send in their own tapes. And out of the thousands of video entries for Total Drama Hawaii, only eight of them were selected. So, hope you're excited to be meeting them one and all."
Noah rolled his eyes while he crossed his arms. "Oh boy. This should be exciting."
"I know, right?" asked Lindsay excitedly, alongside both Katie and Sadie who were both 'eeee'ing out with glee.
To make the campers more upset, a large luxurious yacht pulled up to the dock, pushing the wrecked speed boat out of the way. "Hey! What gives? That was my boat!" yelled out Duncan, but jumped back when the anchor crashed down into the sand.
"Okay - why do THEY get the awesome looking yacht and we were stuck with the smelly fishing boat?" asked Courtney while obviously annoyed by this little oversight.
"Well, for one - it's not in your contract for the show. So don't bother trying to take a lawsuit to this. And secondly, we did it just to make you all angry." Paul smiled confidently before Chris chuckled a bit. "But, mostly it was just to tick you guys off"
The campers groaned, soon watching the gangplank landing onto the dock. Paul quickly pulled out a clipboard, looking it over before finding the first name on the list. "Ah, here we go. First up, from Boston, Massachusetts, we have Zoey"
Zoey sounded like a nice cheerful name, but her appearance was nothing what they were expecting. Flashy dark red and black tennis shoes that clashed against her torn up blue jeans with a hole torn through her left knee. A black t-shirt was on top, followed by a long sleeve white shirt underneath. Written in big letters on the front spelled out 'NIRVANA', and if that wasn't enough, her shirt was also torn up a bit in places.
Her hair was definitely something different, with a huge crimson pink bangs that went to the side that didn't look like her dark brown hair. She looked around while carrying her big duffel bag, slowly making her way down the gangplank before Chris and Paul nodded to her.
"Welcome to Camp, Zoey" they both commented, as the girl just looked around and then back at Chris with a puzzled look. "So…what? This is it? This is the great Camp Wana-Tiki-luau? This isn't what the brochure said, bud" she spoke out in a very identifiable South Boston accent.
Chris shrugged. "Yeah, we sort of stretched the truth on that one a bit."
Zoey wasn't amused and only got more ticked off. "A bit? Yeah, that's exaggerating it QUITE a bit. Does this place at least have a hot tub?" Paul nodded and the girl shrugged. "Well, then this place isn't half bad as I thought. And I take it these are the others?" Her finger pointed over to the other campers, some a bit intimidated by her outfit and attitude.
"You got it" Chris commented before Zoey just brushed past them and stood as far away from them as possible. Guess she needed to blow off some steam. Zoey leaned up against her bags and tried to nap. "If anybody wakes me up, 'be the last thing ya do, got it?" she called out as she tried to get some rest after a long boat ride.
Paul and Chris shrugged. "Okay…while 'Ms. Attitude' takes a nap, let's get on with the rest of the campers. Up next…" Paul skimmed through the list, soon picking out the next name bolded. "Ah, here we go. Jessie, from San Diego."
Next was someone who just looked and walked like a beatnik from the beach. He had long blonde hair which reached down to his shoulders, a trimmed beatnik looking beard and wore a bucket hat that kept the top of his head in check. His outfit was all blue and black with the Hurley board logo on front, and his blue swim trunks matching his top. Finally, some black flip flop sandals finished the outfit. All he carried though was a small bag and his huge surfboard under his arm as he made his way down the gangplank towards the hosts.
"All right" chuckled the surfer dude, giving a high five to Paul, then to Chris. "Now this is what I'm talking about. How are the waves here?" Paul quickly gave a thumbs up. "As good you can ever imagine"
"Right on. So, where can I like, ya know, crash and put my stuff?" Chris pointed over to where Zoey was, only waving with one hand while she rested with her eyes closed. "Awesome then. Let me know when we can get the challenge done. I wanna' get out there and catch some waves, man"
What a character he was, some of the campers chuckling at his carefree attitude, others just watching with interest. How did this guy get picked out? He did remind them a bit of Geoff in a way, though this guy seemed WAY more laid back than him. And that was saying something.
The next camper off the boat didn't even need an introduction, as she just came running off and waving. "Hey Chris! Hey Paul!". This one made a few of the girls surprised. A white shirt with an orange tank top, white khaki shorts, white heel top shoes, and her brunette brown hair in a pigtail in the back. But there were a few things that stood out. Some kind of card deck at her belt side, and what appeared to be a yellow circle or…pizza symbol or something. They couldn't tell.
"Everyone - this is Kelsey Gallaga, from Seattle, Washington" smiled Paul as he greeted the girl to the others. Everyone just waved but Cody and Harold were the only ones that seemed to gasp.
"Wait…you're THE Kelsey Gallaga? THE KELSEY GALLAGA?" exclaimed Harold over and over again like a broken record. Duncan only looked at them with a puzzled look. "Uhh…who's Kelsey Gallaga and why are you freaking out?"
Kelsey just giggled and waved her hand a bit before explaining. "Oh, so you haven't heard? I'm pretty much THE greatest gamer who ever lived. Put every nerd, geek and wannabe gamer in their place."
A few of the others couldn't help but laugh, thinking this was all a joke. "Yeah, right!" laughed Geoff, thinking this was a joke. Kelsey however smirked, and soon the laughter died down. "Uh…you serious dude?"
"Uh, yeah 'dude', I'm being serious" Duncan couldn't help but retort however. "But, you're a girl…"
"And not nerdy looking" added in Justin. Kelsey just shrugged. "So?"
"Just because most gamers are nerdy looking and boys doesn't mean there can't be a few good looking girls who like to play video games too, am I right?"
A few looked to Harold and Cody, being the two nerds they were. Cody only nodded. "She does have a point"
As Kelsey grabbed her bags and walked over to where Jessie and Zoey were sitting, Duncan and Geoff were still a bit surprised. "A Gamer Girl who's actually not nerdy looking…now I've seen everything" Geoff rubbed the back of his head, Duncan knowing though there was still more he hadn't seen yet.
"Next up…" started Paul, as he went down the list but was stopped by hearing a young teen crying out for help.
"Uhh…l-little help here please! Somebody! I can't see!" yelled out a boy who was covered with bags and a guitar case towering in his arms. "Explain to me why I'm the one who has to do this?" he yelled out, the other three new campers laughing as Jessie called out. "Sorry dude, but you lost the bet so you have to carry the rest of our bags off the boat."
"Are you KIDDING me!" The boy didn't exactly seem so happy about all of this. "I'm quite sure Zoey cheated, I had a Three of a Kind!"
Zoey smirked. "Sorry kid, but I guess Lady Luck just isn't on your side. Now less yapping and more carrying!"The boy groaned out, slowly making his way down the gangplank before he began to stumble. "W-Whoa…whoa! WHOA! OUT OF THE WAYYYY!" he yelled out, the campers jumping back as the boy fell down the gangplank, bags and suitcases flying everywhere until they crashed into the sand. The boy fell down with a loud *THUD* as sand kicked up everywhere.
Everyone began to cough as the sand settled, Jessie and the other new campers unable to contain their laughter. Courtney however rushed over. "Guys, knock it off. He could be seriously hurt" she scolded, quickly helping the boy up. "You alright?"
The boy dusted the sand off his khaki shorts, picking off underwear and boxers from his green t-shirt and white long sleeve underneath. Shuddering he kicked off a bra from his black converse shoes as Zoey yelled out. "Hey! That's mine!" she exclaimed, quickly grabbing it and shoving it into her bag before the boys could get another glance.
"Yeah…I'm fine. Other than having almost everyone's underwear cover you from head to toe except your own…I think I'll manage." he sighed, smiling a bit towards Courtney before getting really scared. "Wait! My guitar! What happened to my-"
"Over here!" yelled out Heather, still holding the case as she walked over and pushed it into the teen's hands. "You're lucky it landed in my hands instead of hitting me" The boy chuckled and smiled, soon extending his hand out. "Well, thanks for the quick save. I'm Aaron. You're Heather, right?"
Heather was a bit surprised. He was actually greeting him? Maybe he was just trying to suck up to the veteran campers. So, she just played along with whatever he was doing and shook his hand back. "Yeah, nice to meet you too"
Aaron nodded, soon walking over and began to pick up the bags while Courtney helped. "A little reminder for you - don't make nice with Heather" she commented. Aaron raised an eyebrow and wasn't sure what she meant.
He looked up at Courtney, a bit confused by her words. "What? Is she contagious or something?" he laughed, Courtney soon grabbing him at the collar. "I'm serious. Be nice or make friends with her, and we're going to have a problem…got it?"
Aaron nervously smiled and nodded quickly. "Yeah yeah…I got it…geez. Don't have a cow" He just wished to get the first day off without a hitch. The LAST thing he wanted to do was make enemies, especially Courtney. He had already seen what she can do when she hated somebody.
As Courtney helped him lift up a heavy bag, she quickly let go, forcing Aaron down and hitting the sand once again. She was struck in awe by the next boy who got off the boat. In fact, she wasn't the only girl staring. Every girl was, even Eva.
The young Hispanic boy now walking down the plank towards the dock was dressed in barely anything at all. Just a dark gray tank top that accented out his tanned body and muscles, black hair that stuck out a bit near the front, jeans that hung a little low and showed off just a little bit of his boxers, and surprisingly clean looking Addidas tennis shoes that didn't even have a scratch on them.
The boy looked over at Aaron and couldn't help but chuckle. Paul nodded to the staring eyes and glaring ones from the boys before he spoke. "Everyone - this, is Hector, from Miami Beach"
Hector gave a wave to the ladies, winking and giving a thumbs up to some, which undoubting made Katie, Sadie and Eva faint right before everyone's eyes. Justin seemed to be glaring the most. How dare he invade the girls he had been trying to woo! What did this little punk have that he didn't have?
"Welcome to Hawaii, Hector" grinned Chris, shaking the boy's hand while he high fived Paul right after that. "Hey, que pasa?" he called out with a hint of his Hispanic accent. "And I see the ladies here are looking good." Hector waved over and winked, the girls couldn't help but giggle adolescently at the boy charming the ladies.
Heather wasn't moved at all, or at least it didn't seem to bother her. There was something about him that seemed…familiar. But she just couldn't put it down. She could already see it was making Justin angry for once. So maybe…just maybe she could be able to work with him to get to the final two.
"Alright…next after the Hispanic Heartthrob…we have…" Paul started, trying to read Chris's handwriting on the clipboard and looked at Chris weirdly. "Did you ever learn how to write? Cause I'm having a hard time reading this chicken scratch you call words…"
Chris glared and grabbed the board, reading it off. "…Sally"
Sally walked off the boat next…and some boys couldn't help but smile as she walked down the dock towards them. She had long golden blonde hair, beautiful blue eyes and just the right shade on her skin that seemed to reflect the light off her. On top was her cowboy hat…which some almost looked like Geoff's hat in a way. Her top was a red button down shirt with the sleeves rolled up and opened up a bit to show some cleavage. That made some boys drool and stare. And down her slender hips wore her blue bell bottom jeans and cowboy boots.
Paul and Chris quickly shook her hand as she spoke first. "Well howdy Chris an' Paul! Boy is sure great to meet you all" She waved to the other campers she met on the boat. "Oh, and I'm sorry that you had to carry all of my bags Aaron! Honest to goodness I didn't want you to lose!"
Aaron just smiled and waved his hand while he was carrying bags from one end of the beach to the other new campers. "It's alright Sally"
It was then Sally's eyes met on Ezekiel's, checking him up and down as she walked over, shaking her hips with every step before she leaned down. "Well hey there shug'. Ain't you the cutest boy I ever did see!" This made Ezekiel blush, trying to stutter some slang but only muttered out nonsense. This made Sally giggle, but some of the other girls weren't sure what she was up to.
"Why are you even talking to him? Do you even know what he said to us last time?" Courtney told Sally, the other girls aware of what Zeke had said to them.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~Flashback~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Everyone on the Killer Bass were disappointed that they lost their very first challenge of TDI. They weren't sure who to pick. Duncan had suggested Courtney, who of course tried to reply back.
"You guys need me! I'm the one-
Bridgette annoyingly rolled her eyes. "We know! Who used to be a real CIT. So who would you pick?" she asked her, Courtney scanning their team for a weak link and pointed at Tyler.
"What about…him?"
Instantly on the other side of the main lodge came out a scream. "Nooooo!" Silence filled the room to find Lindsay from the Screaming Gophers standing up. She tried to act however as if she didn't say anything. "Uh I mean, no salt. There's no salt on the table…"
Duncan however didn't see past her accusation as he pointed to Courtney, still wanting to vote her off. "Hey at least he jumped off the cliff 'chicken wing'"
Courtney quickly got angry and stood up. "Shut it!"
Geoff then tried to calm the peace between the two. "Okay, let's just, chill out. This is getting way too heavy" But it didn't seem Duncan wished to stick around. "I've had enough prison food for one day. I'm gonna' go have a nap" And with that, he stood up and left the lodge while Courtney yelled out to him. "Y-You can't do that! We haven't decided who's going yet!"
"I just don't get why we lost, eh? They're the ones with six girls" spoke Ezekiel with his arms crossed. Instantly Katie and Sadie gasped, shocked to hear those words from the boy's mouth.
Bridgette walked over and glared down at the home schooled boy. "What's THAT supposed to mean?" Eva added by slamming her fist into the table on the other side of him. "Yeah home school, 'enlighten' us!"
"Well, guys are stronger and much better at sports than girls are" Ezekiel didn't seem moved or threatened at all. The other boys on the team however backed away from Katie and Sadie, now looking like they were just hit by a car.
Geoff thought this was funny though, since it seemed Ezekiel was going to get his ass kicked. "Ohhh snap! He did NOT just say that."
Ezekiel just continued on. "My dad told me to look out for the girls here, eh. And help 'em in case they can't keep up" It was then Eva grabbed at his throat with both hands, easily lifting him up into the air and gripping very tightly. Bridgette also was angry and wanted a piece of him.
"Still think we need your help keeping up?" she asked, shaking the boy's neck to show a point. Zeke very weakly and scared shook his head. "Not really"
Geoff, although didn't mind it being funny by what Ezekiel said didn't want to see any violence so he tried to step in. "Okay, guys? Let's give him a break" Eva then let go of Zeke, dropping him to the floor while Geoff went on. "I mean, at least he doesn't think that guys are smarter than girls"
Ezekiel looked up at them and retorted. "But, they are"
Zeke however tried to plead his innocence to the rest of the group. "Aw come on, eh! I said I was soory! Can't you guys forgive me for that?"
Courtney held her chin as if in thought. "Hm, let me think. No!" she yelled back, while Sally just shrugged.
"Shug', you just need to calm yourself down. All of this hate for the kid ain't gonna' help in the contest. I say y'all just settle your difference aside for Zeke here until the end of the show. Then if you still hate 'em as much as you do now, so be it" Sally, although telling Courtney and the other girls to stop hating Ezekiel, was right.
Bridgette nodded in agreement. "Alright…fine. We'll let it go for now. But we better not hear anymore about boys being better, got it?" she threatened with her first, Eva cracking her knuckles behind her.
Ezekiel quickly nodded in response. "O-O-Of c-course, eh! I promise not to say anything like that at all"
Paul and Chris both blew whistles to get everyone's attention. "Okay folks, you can save all of the reminiscing and talking AFTER we've gotten everyone here, alright?" yelled Chris over a megaphone, making everyone flinch and shut up. He smirked and nudged Paul. "Ya' see? This is how you run things. With an iron sadistic fist"
Paul rolled his eyes. "Yeah, well if you're done playing as Caesar here, I'll name the next person off" As he did so, the next camper came off the boat. This one was a surprise to some.
The young boy that walked off almost looked like he was in his 20's with how muscular and tall he was. He wore a pair of military fatigue boots, camouflage cargo pants, and a dark green combat shirt that almost looked like Chris's, but a dark green instead. Up top was his orange hair that also matched up with his eyes, and finally a green beret that covered his hair and read along it 'U.S.M.C.'
He made his way down the plank, looking about before setting both very heavy duffel bags down as Chris and Paul greeted him. "Daniel, glad you could join us. Why are you carrying your own bags?" asked Chris. He thought Aaron had carried his off the boat minutes before.
Daniel shook his head. "Nah. I have to keep in shape if I want to stay in my unit. Besides, Aaron over there wasn't even able to lift them, let alone carry them" he chuckled, Aaron rolling his eyes. "Oh 'ha ha' Danny, very funny"
Daniel then glared back. "It's DANIEL, not 'Danny', got it?"
Aaron again held his hands up and shook his head. He then walked back over to set his bags down and stood with the other new campers. Heather then asked. "Excuse me, Chris? Is he even under the age limit for this show?"
Chris and Paul checked the clipboard and nodded to one another. Annoyingly, he walked up to Heather, Chris picking up his megaphone and held it up against her. "No stupid questions!" Heather's hair blew like in a storm, and soon fell down, unable to hear anything. Beth and Lindsay rushed over, still a little concerned for her.
"Oh my gosh! Heather, you alright?" asked Lindsay, Beth waving her hand in front of the girl's face. "Heather?"
"WHAT?" she screamed out, Heather unable to hear anything except a loud ringing. A couple of the boys chuckled, Gwen and Courtney too.
Finally, the last new camper began to walk from the big yacht just as it departed. This time it was a girl. She had black hair that was put into a pair of pigtails with crimson pink ribbons holding them in place, similar to Katie's. She also wore khaki shorts, oriental wooden sandals and a green shirt on top. On it was a brown 'Peace' symbol as the girl adjusted her round circle glasses as Paul and Chris welcomed her.
"And finally, is Kimi. Welcome to Hawaii" they greeted her, Kimi bowing with respect and smiled. "Thank you Chris-san, Paul-san. It is very nice to meet you both." She seemed like a very polite and kind girl - possibly perfect for manipulation by Heather.
Once everything had settled, the Campers were now sitting around one another at the campfire and wondered how this year was going to be different than the last. The newbies however were just wondering how they would survive at all since they've seen what kind of torture and painful challenges they went through.
"Everyone, welcome to the Island of Palamu. Your home for the rest of the summer. Now many of you know how this all goes down, but to explain simply for the new campers, Chris here will be telling you them" Paul stepped aside as Chris cleared his throat.
"First off, you'll all be divided into two teams. Every two or three days you'll be given a challenge or a set of challenges your team must compete in. The winning team will either win a reward or be granted immunity. The losers, will send someone home." Paul and Chris scanned the group, watching eyes wandering around to the others. Any one of them could be the first one kicked off today.
"In the end…" stated Paul, "Only one of you will win the grand prize of five million dollars. So, now that that's been settled, it's time to set our teams!"
Paul pulled out his clipboard, handing it to Chris as he checked both teams. "Alright. When we call your name, go ahead and stand next to that big palm tree." And slowly, he began to name off the list. "Gwen" The goth girl smiled, quickly standing up and walking over. The others followed as well. "Noah, Geoff, Lindsey, Tyler, Duncan, Jessie, Kelsey, Cody, Ezekiel, Aaron, Heather, Courtney, Sally, and Izzy"
The small group soon stood around one another, some not liking Heather being on their team, or crazy Izzy, or even annoying 'Ms. CIT' Courtney. Gwen looked saddened that her friends LeShawna or Bridgette were going to be on the other team. Still, that didn't mean they weren't friends still, right? "From this moment on, you will be…" As Paul announced, Chris pulled out a large banner and unveiled it, revealing their new colors to be a dark aqua blue and black. "The Killer Marlins". A few of the new campers smiled, thinking the name was pretty cool while others were not to enthused.
"Alright, as for the second team. We have: Owen" Owen quickly raised up both arms. "Oh yes! Yes!" he cheered out before he walked over to the other big palm tree. "After that we have Beth, Zoey, Harold, Justin, Bridgette, LeShawna, Trent, Hector, Daniel, Katie, Sadie… "Both BFF's squealed out with delight when hearing they would be on the same team together.
"…Eva, Kimi, and DJ. Now, from this moment on, your team will be known as…" Chris grabbed the second banner and unveiled it, their new colors being Orange and Yellow. "The Screaming Sharks. We would've switched the names around but, we think it sounds better."
Chris nodded and soon explained some of the new rules. "Alright, so you all get the drill. Compete in challenges, win a reward or go home, right? Well, we added a little something extra into it. Paul?" The survivalist quickly pulled out a golden medallion connected with a silver chain.
"This here is the Immunity Pendant. At each campfire ceremony, you will select a member of your team who deserves this pendant for helping your team to victory. Once they win it, they can choose to either keep it, or give it away to someone else on your team." Paul slowly walked around as he showed them all the pendant up close.
"Now then, say your team wins a challenge, but you lose the next. The person who wears this pendant is then hereby immune from being voted off from their team. However, if your team wins, then the pendant is given to someone on the other team to use." Chris chuckled a bit.
"We'll be keeping this little keepsake around until it's every man for himself." The whole idea of the immunity pendant wasn't going to fly on the Killer Marlin's…especially if Heather got a hold of it - they would NEVER be able to get rid of her if they kept winning.
"Alright. Enough of that. Oh, and you'll be needing these" Chris and Paul began to hand each camper a small mini video recorder. "You'll be able to use these anywhere on the island to record your inner thoughts and let everyone at home know what you're thinking."
Confessions:
Gwen: *In Bathroom Stall* Well…so far this sucks. I mean, it is nice to see Trent, Bridgette and LeShawna...but now all of them are on the other team. Still, can't get any worse, right?
Heather: *holding camera at herself while she walks* Another year, another chance at a big prize. *stops moving and chuckles, smirking at the camera* This should be good.
Lindsay: *Camera is upside down* I don't get it, how does this thing work? *Tyler's voice is heard off camera* Tyler: Allow me *flips camera back right side up* Lindsay: Aw, thanks Tyler. Tyler: Anything for you babe *holds camera at them both as they begin to make out*
Cody: *Hiding behind the Main Lodge* With Trent on the other team and Gwen still in breakup mode, it's up to me to try and make her happy! I mean, she's got to go out with me sooner or later, right?
"So what do you think our first challenge will be?" Lindsay asked her team, both of them walking to their cabins. DJ shrugged and smiled. "Cmon, it's our first challenge! How hard could it be?" It was then as they reached what was supposed to be the lots for their cabins were nothing but empty spaces.
Gwen groaned. "…you've got to be f***ing kidding me."
END OF CHAPTER 1
(Author's ending note: GAWD DAMN IT. I hate it when school, work and life in general gets in the way of writing my story. That, and I personally find it annoying to keep describing the new camper's descriptions. Thankfully, you can expect Chapter 2 to be completed by the end of November at the latest. And yes, I will be leaving EVERY chapter on some sort of cliffhanger, just to make you mad X3
Oh, and here's the list of the teams incase you missed it the first time:
Screaming Sharks: Owen, DJ, LeShawna, Bridgette, Beth, Trent, Katie, Sadie, Eva, Harold, Justin, Zoey, Hector, Kimi and Daniel.
Killer Marlins: Gwen, Heather, Duncan, Courtney, Tyler, Cody, Izzy, Lindsay, Noah, Geoff, Ezekiel, Aaron, Jessie, Sally and Kelsey.

Hope you enjoy. Feel free to comment and ask questions as well! Chapter 2 will be in the works after Halloween)
