This time I'll be doing something unconventional, a Total Drama Season 2 fic! What a disappointment, some may think. Not to worry, cause this fic will be different. It's a fusion of fanon, canon, reader participation, and even a bit of WWE. This fic, as loyal WWE fans would tell, is based on the WWE NXT show that airs every Tuesday night on SyFy. It involves 8 seasoned wrestlers mentoring 8 rookies in a reality TV format. So why not incorporate this into Total Drama?

Finally- Disclaimer: All TDI characters are property of Fresh TV. In addition, WWE owns the pro/rookie format that I'll be using for the season.

Without further ado, the Palace of Wisdom presents Total Drama Next!

The original 22 of TDI were seated in the Craft Services Tent. Most of them were longing to be in Morpheus's arms now, as Chris rambled on another new season concept. After Duncan won Total Drama Action, everyone was glad to be free of the terrible realm of Total Drama. Sadly, that was far from reality. A mere three months later, the campers were in for another season of Total Drama (insert cheesy name here).

As the campers started to drop like flies, an unpleasant sound blared throughout the arena.

"(Bleep) the horn!" Duncan yelled irascibly.

Deliberately ignoring the delinquent, Chris continued to recount his extremely stifling idea of a fresh reality TV series.

"As I said, 12 of you lucky campers will partake in Total Drama Next! More exciting challenges, exciting drama and exciting elimination ceremonies will come as 12 exciting teenagers will join the exciting cast on this exciting show!"

Confessional

Noah- Wow, Chris, even Lindsay would have a wider range of vocabulary. Cat got your tongue?

"Now let's decide who will form the deadly dozen!"

"First up, easily qualifying will be our resident rebel Duncan!"

Duncan groaned as his name was called.

"Next is our Cody-loving geek Noah!"

"Chris, I hope you slap a porcupine on the way out,"

"Following them to TDN will be our bubble-brained blonde Lindsay!"

"Hooray, I'm joining Total Drama Noah!"

Noah shifted uncomfortably as Chris facepalmed.

"A reality TV show won't do without our favorite queen bee Heather!"

"Oh please, I would rather stay home than spend time with those failures in life! Especially that weird goth girl!"

Gwen took offense to that and attempted an assault on Heather, which was immediately broken off by Chef and Chris.

"By the way, Gwen, you're in! The show won't do without the arch-enemy!"

"Oh great. At least I can decimate that arrogant good-for-nothing!" The gothic girl replied and tried to get another shot at her ever-cocky rival.

"We already have one conflict running even before this show gets off and running! To compensate for their temper, we have 'Mr. Momma's Boy' DJ!"

DJ grinned, knowing that he could do his mother proud.

"Speaking of nice people, we have our kind surfer girl Bridgette joining the crew."

After a moment, there was no reply.

"Bridgette!"

The sunshine girl broke apart from her boyfriend the nth time since the show's inception, then sheepishly took her spot beside the 6 who had already qualified.

"Of course we can't miss our popular Code-miester, Cody!"

"I'm so going to pick up some ladies!" The tech geek cheered with gusto as he skipped a beat.

"Making the cut will be basket case E-Scope, Explosivo, Esquire or just Izzy!"

"Cool! Maybe I will get to wrestle a bear again!" the redhead said with twice as much enthusiasm as Cody, as DJ's face scrunched up.

"The next in line will be one half of our BFFFLs, Katie!"

Katie and Sadie prepared for another elongated shriek, but the realization soon dawned on them. Katie would be qualifying at the expense of Eva, LeShawna, Courtney, Beth and of course, her inseparable soulmate Sadie.

"Why did you give the spot to me? Why couldn't we two stay unqualified?"

"C'mon, you two have been out for one season, don't you feel the rust?"

"No, we just want to be together! Nothing will separate us ever again!"

Totally ignoring the fiasco that was going on, as well as the ominous looks Eva and Courtney had written on their faces, Chris continued the proceedings.

"Snagging a qualifying spot will be our home-bred rapper "Lil' Zeke" Ezekiel!" Chris announced, ignoring the fact that his slang blew much more than the homeschooler ever did.

"I'm not afraid to take a stand
Everybody come take my hand
We'll walk this road together, through the storm
Whatever weather, cold or warm
Just let you know that, you're not alone
Holla if you feel that you've been down the same road,"

Ezekiel proudly announced his exuberance at qualification but was met with nothing but crickets and blank stares. The homeschooler looked down, embarrassed at his sudden outburst.

Only to be glomped by a saffron blur seconds later.

"Izzy loved your rap,"

"Uh… thank you, eh," Several campers scratched their head at this turn of events.

"Now, may we have a drum roll, as we reveal the final mentor for TDN?"

Tyler, Harold, Trent, Geoff and Owen looked at each other nervously. Only one was getting a second chance at reuniting with his girlfriend, or in the case of Tyler, Harold and Owen former lovers, having all broke up throughout TDA.

"And the final spot is taken by………………………….

HAROLD!"

"Boo yeah! I will get to showcase my mad skills and pass them on!"

Looking back at the disheartened faces of the popular quartet, Harold reassured," I'm sorry that Chris chose me over all of you, but you could count this as a blessing. You wouldn't have to go through…"

"SHUT UP, you TRAITOR!"

Predictably, one person was peeved at Harold's entry: the mocha-skinned CIT.

"I'm a CIT and you know that I would dominate the competition, so you left me out for losers like scaredy-cat DJ, crap rapper Ezekiel and that (bleep) traitor!"

"So, you got to participate in both TDI and TDA despite annoying everyone with your poor leadership skills. I got two episodes of Total Drama only! You wanna fight, come and pick on someone your size!" Eva bellowed from the audience.

Eva and Courtney went at it as several security guards were called in, with Chef suffering a black eye.

When things finally were under control once more, Chris decided to stop the session dead in its tracks.

"What will happen when the 12 rookies meet their pros? Find out on the premiere of Total…Drama…Next!"
