Autumn sighed as she saw the abandoned film lot ahead. "Why me? Stupid manager… There are a million other people who could do this. They don't need me. I don't want to have to help what's his face run the show. They just want more views. More publicity. More money." She leaned against the door of her limousine.
They finally reached the film lot. There wasn't anyone in sight. She tapped her fingers impatiently on the door handle.
"Ok Giles. I'm going to just go ahead and get out. Someone should be here soon. Thanks for the ride."
"Don't mention it Miss. Autumn." Giles tipped his chauffer hat. Autumn nodded to him and jumped out. Giles popped the trunk and helped Autumn pull all four of her luggage bags out.
"Thank you Giles. You go have a good vacation. I got the rest." Autumn smiled at the old man.
"Many thanks Miss. Autumn." He tipped his hat again and without another word he left.
"Hello?" Autumn yelled hoping someone could hear. Suddenly she felt the ground shake."Whoaaaa! What's going on here?" Autumn tried to keep her balance.
"RAAAHHHHH!"
Autumn looked up, her eyes grew wide, and her jaw dropped. Before her she saw a giant green monster. She screamed and started running.
Chris was laughing maniacally as he watched the campers run off scared trying to get to their trailers before the monster gets them. Chef was controlling the monster himself so Chris was sure no one was going to get hurt… he heard screaming. "Ahh, the sound of-" before he could finish his sentence someone ran into hit the ground.
"Ouch. NO MY HAIR!" Chris jumped up and pulled out a mirror. "Phew… it's ok!" he looked to the person on the floor. He was about to yell at them but he noticed it wasn't one of the campers. It was a woman, a very attractive one at that.
"Oh, hello? Are you ok?" Chris crouched down and helped her up.
"Sorry I'm fine! There was a giant freaking green monster and he chased me!!" the girl hid behind Chris.
"Oh, that's just an animatronic! It's not real. Your totally safe gorgeous." Chris reassured.
"Oh, well then!" She coughed and fixed her was wearing black short shorts and a tight, bright green shirt that exposed her mid-drift. Her hair was a natural blonde and her eyes were sparkling blue. "Hello? Earth to person? Who are you?" The girl was waving her hand in front of his face.
"Oh sorry. I'm McLean. The producer of Total Drama Action!" he said in his producer voice.
"Oh well in that case… " The girl reared back and knocked Chris in the face. "That's for meeting me at the gate and for not warning me about the monster." She huffed. "I'm Autumn by the way."
Chris jumped up and fixed his hair again. When she said her name he stopped, "Autumn Rainey! Shit! I totally forgot you were coming." Chris slapped his face.
"Yeah, you did forget." Autumn griped. "I left all my bags at the gate too."
"Don't worry. I'll get Chef to pick them up for you. Don't worry yourself beautiful."
"Call me beautiful again and I'll kick you." Autumn growled.
Chris held his hands up in defense. "Ok, ok. Well follow me. I'm waiting for the kids in one of the trailers so you can chill with me until we are dig?"
"Sure." Autumn rolled her eyes. This was going to be one LONG forty two days. She followed him to one of the white trailers beside akid's fun jump. She cocked an eye brow but didn't ask.
She walked inside after him.
"So, Autumn. Want anything to drink?" Chris offered.
"Uh, got any Cola?" She asked. Chris opened the fridge and pulled out a coke. He tossed it to her.
"Thanks."
"Don't mention it beautiful." Chris popped open a soda of his own. Autumn rolled her eyes. "So how old are you Autumn? And what brings you here?"
"I'm twenty two and I thought you knew why I was here?"
"Hm, no."
"I'm here to help host. Your 'boss man' thought it would bring more publicity and more views to the show."
Chris spewed his drink everywhere, some of it landed on Autumn. "Nice Chris… "
"YOU are going to be hosting the show with ME?" Chris yelled.
"Yeah." Autumn replied as she wiped off her face. "They told me you'd take it hard. They told me to tell you to think of the 'money'." Autumn shook her head and took a sip of her drink. Everything was always about money. She hated it. She only wanted to give the crowd something they would love not empty their pockets out for something not even worth that much.
Chris was thinking it over. "Well… For the money. But don't think of trying to steal my spotlight!" he whined.
"Why would I want to?" Autumn growled.
"Oh look, its time to go see the campers!" Chris jumped up and walked toward the door. Autumn followed. She wanted to see the campers.
As soon as they walked out Chris said, "Wahoah,am I ever glad I chose to wait in that Trailer."
Autumn poked her head out and saw a crushed Trailer across from theirs.
"It looks like you all made it! Guess I lose the bet. That was just a warm up. Good news is your next challenge is a reward!"All the campers start to cheer.
"It will be boys against girls and the winner gets the first pick of the trailers where you will be living in the next forty two days!"
Autumn walked up beside Chris.
Chris continued, "You will have your choice oftrailer A" He extended his hand toward the trailer they just came out of. "Or trailer… eeshh… " he looked to the crushed trailer. He apparently forgot it was crushed.
"Off to the craft services Tent!"
Some fat kid screamed, "Augh, yeah baby! I'm Starving!"
Autumn cocked an eyebrow. These were some weird looking campers. One obese, a native looking girl with red hair, a geek, a punk, a goth, a bald girl? There were others but she just stopped there.
"Ahem, Chris? Aren't you forgetting something?" Autumn tapped his shoulder.
Chris thought for a moment. "No." Autumnhit him in the head Chris was already getting on her nerves. Then she looked to the campers.
"Hi there Campers. I'm Autumn-"
A girl gasped, "Oh my gosh! Autumn Rainey! You're a famous actress and dancer!" A blonde girl with bright blue eyes clasped her hands together. "You're like amazing!"
"Ah thanks… uh?" She waited for a name.
"My name is Lindsay!"
Someone whistled, "Hello gorgeous!" It was the punk. He had a green Mohawk and piercing.
"And you are?"
"You can call me Duncan." he wiggled his one eyebrow.
"Ew… Shave that caterpillar off your face punk." Autumngrimaced. Everyone laughed.
"Now as I was saying. I am Autumn Rainey and I'm here to help host with Chris here." She pointed at Chris who was mumbling and crossing his arms. "I'd like to know some names now please."
"Gwen."
"Trent."
"E-scope."
"E-scope?" Autumn looked to Chris. "Izzy." Autumn nodded.
"Heather."
"Beth."
"Justin."
"Lindsay!"
"Owen."
"Geoff."
"Bridgett."
"Duncan."
"Harold."
"Leshawna."
"Dj."
"Wow! It's nice to meet you all! Ok now you can all go to the craft services tent." Autumn stepped back beside Chris.
Chris huffed and headed off to the tent. In the end the boys won because Owen ate all the plastic food and found the key.
Then Owen chose the squashed trailer. The girls cheered but then their trailer was squashed by the was laughing.
It was getting dark now and Chef had done fixed up both the trailers. Autumn was sitting beside Chris in a cart. He looked to the campers and said, "Ok everyone! Get a good nights sleep because you've got a seriously early wake up call. Call time is Six A.M. Sleep quickly." Chris laughed. Then they were heading off. It was completely dark. The only light was the headlights of the cart. The camera crew were packing their stuff up back with the campers and Chef was nailing the last nail onto the roof of the girls trailer. So they were alone for the time being.
"Where are we heading?" She asked.
"To our trailer." Chris answered.
"'OUR' trailer?" she questioned.
"Yes, 'OUR' trailer. I didn't expect you to be coming so we only have enough for the camera crew, Chef, and me.I have the biggest trailer. Be glad I'm being so kind." Chris had an arrogant voice.
"I bet that's a first, and there better be two beds." She mumbled.
"Hm?" Chris questioned.
"Nothing. Did Chef get my stuff?"
"Yes. Its already in the Trailer."
The rest of the ride was quiet. They finally reached the 'Trailers'
"Compared with a real trailer hat looks more like a house on wheels." Autumn looked at the large trailer end to end.
"It's not as big as I wanted it but that's all I could get." Chris shook his head. "Two beds, one bathroom, and a small kitchen."
"Yes! Two bedrooms! Some privacy." Autumn cheered.
"I said two beds not tow bedROOMS." Chris threw a grenade onto her happy moment.
She sighed and walked in. "It's quite swanky!"
"Only the best for the best! ME!" Chris nodded.
"Your so conceded!" Autumn kicked him in the shin.
"OW!" Chris jumped around the kitchen area. Autumn went into the bed room and saw her stuff in the corner near one of the beds.
"Finally, I can relax." She ran over to her stuff and pulled out a pair of fuzzyblack shorts with blue, green, and red searched through the rest of the clothes and foundher green also exposed her stomach.
She raced to the bathroom and locked the showered, washed her hair, and got out.
She walked out of the bathroom and toward her bed. She stretched and pulled the covers back. She heard a wolf-whistle behind her. "Nice!"
"Huh?" She spun aroundand saw Chris in only shorts. He was very muscular but she wouldn't tell him that. That would just boost his already to high confidence.
"AUGH! My eyes!" She cried and fell to the floor.
"Not funny." Chris glared.
"It was to me." Autumn jumped on her bed.
"Well beautiful, Get some good night sleep. Not that you need it gorgeous." Chris jumped in his own bed.
Autumn's eye twitched. Chris was about to get a face full of fist if he kept up the name calling.
"Night Chris."Autumn rolled over and closed her eyes thinking about what was going to happen tomorrow.
