Disclaimer: I do not own Total Drama, nor its Spin-Off series, The Ridonculous Race, shows which have aired in Cartoon Network in the United States, Latin America and other numerous countries besides Canada, airing instead in Teletoon. The legitimate creators of the show are Tom McGillis and Jennifer Pertsch.

The Total Drama series is a show that I love immensely, so much so, that I decided to mix it with another thing that I love even more so: Writing, and so this AU story was conceived in my mind, and know I want to share it with you. Hopefully you will like it.

Now, English is not my First Language, that would be Spanish (French, hopefully, will be the third one) so if you see any misspelling, any grammatical error, or fail to comprehend any given sentence, please let me know, I wish to improve as much as I can and if you're willing to help me, I will be very grateful. I will write what I know, but the good thing about writing what you know, is that you can always know more (If that sounds like you have heard it before, it's because you have)

Without further ado, let us begin.


Prologue.

"Well! I guess that's it." One of the producers of the incoming series 'Total Drama' said as he was stretching his arms above his head.

He, along with a pair of younger looking men, were sitting on a table in the middle of a dark room, the only source of light was the one coming from the TV they were watching, the last video audition just ended, the only thing being displayed on the screen was static.

The older man took the cigarette off his mouth and put it on the ashtray on the table, blowing the smoke out of his lungs before saying "Gotta be honest with you guys, That one didn't really leave an impression on me, how 'bout you two?" he looked at the two men.

"Same, really " said... ah crap, what was his name again? he really should get better at remembering his employees' names, its not like those two were hired yesterday. He will be One for the time being "That girl felt kind of Samey to the rest of the candidates, specially compared to those that are most likely to be accepted, who did manage to leave an impression. The fact that I still can remember their names while I just literally forgot hers should be telling enough."

"Even if she did feel a little too similar to one of our current favorites, that doesn't necessarily mean she would be out" Said... —oh come on, really? he doesn't need to write down his inters' names in the palm of his hand now, does he?— Two "She lacked a certain spark, something that would definitely set her apart from the rest of the group. People with similar personality are normally attracted to one another. Friendship, alliance, maybe even romance and all that good stuff, but add just a few contrasting traits and you have all kinds of potential conflicts."

The older man nodded, those two may be new in the industry, but they could manage. However only time would tell.

"So... are we done here?" He asked rhetorically "I say we call it a night and go hit the diner at the end of the street. Tomorrow we'll show the final draft for the cast to the rest of the producers."

One nodded his head and Two seemed to suddenly remember something "Ah, about that, sir..." he trailed off.

"What is it?" The senior asked. Two hesitated, as if he regretted opening his mouth as soon as he did. That would not do, the man thought as he didn't take his eyes off his subordinated, either he speaks his mind and risk making a mistake he should learn from in the future, or doesn't and he gets to eat the regret of not doing it, most likely ending up committing said mistake in the future anyway, where he won't be able to pull off the inexperience card as an excuse.

Finally, Two decided to speak "I... may have take the liberty to watch a few audition tapes for the show... by myself" the last part of his sentence was a little weaker in volume than the rest.

One looked at Two with surprised eyes, while the older producer only raised an eyebrow "Oh, really?"

"Y-yeah" The young man nodded his head a little too fast "These video tapes were few of the many that were left out in the preliminary selection, so you most likely didn't get to watch them" He then put a few of said tapes on the table for the other two to see "Out of all the auditions, these four were the one that stood out to me the most. I really think these fellas would be good additions to the cast" Two explained with a small smile.

"Additions?" The older man asked.

"As in, not to replace any member of our current cast, but to add more members in the already large cast?" One questioned "That's assuming, of course, that any of these teens are as good as you think they are. Maybe there was a reason why they didn't give us these audition tapes along with the one they did in the first place?" One was just a little bit skeptical about Two's proposal. The seasoned producer had a perfectly neutral expression on his face as he was listening.

"I understand it is a bit of a stretch to simply accepted these aspirants, but that's not what I'm asking, all I'm asking is for you to see these auditions, and then decide what to do with these fellas. I really do think they at least deserve the opportunity."

The Head Producer was thinking things over, but none of his inters would be able to tell with his poker face, mastered over the years in working in the most unforgiving world of them all. Canadian Entertainment. After the briefest of seconds, he looked down at his watch.

"Well, the diner is open 24/7, so I don't see why we should hurry."

"Sir?" One now looked at his superior with surprised eyes.

"We lose nothing why watching those video tapes except what? one minute per video? We watch them, and then we decided what change, if any, we should make. Who knows? Maybe he actually saw something worthwhile in those teens" The Older Producer explained as he pointed a finger at his other subordinate, who was wearing a pleased smile on his face. He then signed Two to play the tapes so they could all watch those special cases.

"This better be good" One crossed his arms as he leaned back at his chair.

'I hope so, pal' The Older man thought as he watched Two place the first video tape on the reproducer and push the play bottom.

In another reality, that particular inter would have kept his mouth closed, Total Drama Island would have aired with the original cast of twenty-two campers, and he would have went on with his career forever pondering on what could have changed, whether for better or worst, had he decided to speak up that night.

This was not that reality.

Without any of the presents realizing it, a butterfly has flipped its wings, and no body was able to tell what kind of tornado that little action would provoke.

The screen came back to life again.

"Greetings..."
