Chapter 1: It's All Just Total Drama

The suave, raven-haired television star, Chris McLean, stood on the docks of the newest reality show: Total Drama Island. The camera's began rolling, and he began flashing his brilliant smile for all of the reality TV world to see.

"Yo!" he greeted, still grinning. "I'm Chris McLean! We're coming at you from sunny Muskoka, Ontario in the great country of Canada! Here, on an camp island in Muskoka known as Camp Wawanakwa Island, we will have twenty-two teens compete for one-hundred thousand dollars!

"They will be divided into two teams of eleven, and each day, they will compete in grueling challenges! The winning team wins immunity, while the losing team must send one of their comrades home. The eliminated contestant must return here to the Dock of Shame and board the Boat of Losers!"

The camera zoomed out to show more of Chris standing on the "Dock of Shame". A quick bird's eye view of camp was shown, before finally showing the host, once again.

"There will be drama, laughs, terrible food and romance!" Chris smirked as he continued his monologue. "All here! On Total… Drama… Island!"

Chris stood on the docks, awaiting for his twenty-two victims to arrive on the island. The first boat neared the dock, carrying the first contestant. It was a muscular girl wearing a set of blue sweat clothes, with her black hair tied into a ponytail.

"Eva!" Chris greeted, as she jumped off of her boat and began walking down the docks. "You're the first to arrive on Total Drama Island!"

"First to arrive, last to leave." the girl smirked, as she carried a couple of gym bags with her. "The other twenty-one don't stand a chance."

"Good to see you have a competitive streak!" Chris grinned at the athlete as she stood on the docks. "It's good for the ratings!"

Eva just scoffed and rolled her eyes at Chris's statement, as the next boat dropped off the second contestant. It was a blonde haired guy, wearing a cowboy hat, a pink unbuttoned shirt and blue jeans.

"Welcome to Total Drama Island, Geoff!" Chris greeted, flashing his trademark smile.

"Chris, what's up?" Geoff grinned as he gave the host a knuckle touch. "So glad to be here, dude!"

"Glad to have you here, dude!"

"Dude, righteous!"

Eva smacked her forehead and glared at the host and her newest rival for the prize money.

"Will you two please stop saying dude?" she asked, irritated.

"Fine, fine, dudette!" Geoff replied, raising his hands in defense. "Sorry!"

Before Eva could reply, the third contestant exited her boat. She was beautiful, to say the least, albeit bottle blonde according to her eyebrows. With a blue bandanna on her head, the red tank-top and short skirt sporting girl waved at her competitors.

"Hi!" she smiled as she dragged her suitcases over to the others. "I'm Lindsay! Hi, Chip McLean!"

The host's face turned into a scowl of displeasure at the girl calling him by the wrong name. "It's Chris, Lindsay."

"Oh, sorry." Lindsay giggled and smiled.

"Sup, Lindsay?" Geoff asked, grinning at the girl. "I'm Geoff!"

"Nice to meet you, Gerald!" Geoff rose an eyebrow at Lindsay's skill to forget his name three seconds after he introduced himself.

The next contestant to walk on the dock was very tall and strongly built. The dark-skinned teenaged guy was sporting a small black beard and wearing a green shirt with a D on it, grey shorts, and a white hat on his head.

"Devon Joseph!" Chris exclaimed with a grin, mentally remembering the guy's name. "Our resident Canadian-Jamaican!"

"Please, call me DJ." the tall guy stated, with a smile.

"Heh, I might actually have some competition." Eva stated, noticing that DJ was pretty muscular, like herself.

DJ didn't really understand what she meant, but shrugged it off when he noticed the next boat drop off the fifth contestant. The guy was tall and heavyset, with messy blonde hair. He was wearing a white t-shirt with a blue version of Canada's leaf on it and wearing camouflage pants.

"Owen, welcome aboard!" Chris grinned as he greeted the next contestant.

"Chris, what's happening?!" Owen greeted, with a big grin, obviously happy to be here.

"Just preparing for the best reality show ever!" Chris replied, smirking at the big teen.

"You sure are happy." Eva stated, rolling her eyes at Owen.

"Happiness makes the world go 'round." Owen stated, smiling all the while.

DJ chuckled at Owen's remark, as the sixth contestant began her trek down the docks. The tan skinned girl with wavy, brown hair was wearing a grey short sleeved shirt under a long sleeved white shirt and khaki pants.

"Courtney!" Chris greeted the newest competitor. "How was the campaign?"

Eva, Geoff, Lindsay, DJ and Owen looked bewildered. Campaign? What was Chris talking about?

"At school?" Courtney asked, rolling her eyes. "I lost. Why would anyone vote for the AV club president over me?! I'm a CIT!"

"CIT?" Geoff asked, raising an eyebrow.

"Counselor in training." Courtney replied, crossing her arms. "That's why I must win this. I have to redeem myself."

"Good luck with that." Chris teased, before spying the next competitor getting off of his boat.

The newest competitor was easily noticed to be of the punk stereotype. With a black and green mohawk, piercings on his ears and eyebrows (which were quite close together), a black choker around his neck, a skull t-shirt, baggy blue jeans, and a scowl across his face, he could've been considered as slightly scary at first glance.

"How's it feel like to be out of juvie, Duncan?" Chris asked, smirking, as the delinquent walked down the dock.

"Feels great." Duncan smirked, setting his duffel bag down and crossing his arms. "And once I win, I'm never going back."

"Great," Courtney rolled her eyes and scoffed. "now we have a delinquent here? Is this Total Drama Island or Canada's Most Wanted? And, furthermore, wasn't this going to be at a five star resort looking over a beach?"

"Okay, so I stretched the truth a little." Chris ignored Courtney's statement about Duncan's criminal record. "But it does overlook the beach!"

A quick glance at the littered "beach" made Courtney scowl. Duncan chuckled at Courtney's reaction, which soon had Geoff laughing as well.

"You sure are uptight, Princess." Duncan stated, smirking.

"Princess?" Courtney glared at the mohawk sporting teen. "Is that a pet name?!"

"It could be." Duncan shrugged and smirked, casually.

As Courtney scoffed once more, the eighth contestant joined her new rivals. The girl's skin was pale, her hair was a mix of black and blue, and she was wearing blue lipstick. She was obviously a Goth as she was wearing a black halter top with blue and green sleeves, a blue and black miniskirt, black panty hose and black boots.

"Hey there, Gwen!" Chris smirked as the Goth joined them.

"I did not sign up for this." Gwen narrowed her eyes at the host.

"Yes, you did." Chris pulled out a contract that had Gwen's name on it. "And don't try to rip it up. We have a lot of copies of it, anyway."

Gwen growled and muttered something under her breath as she joined the line up.

"Hi, Greta!" Lindsay greeted, waving at Gwen.

Gwen just rolled her eyes and muttered something else under her breath about Lindsay. The next person to join them seemed like the stereotypical musician, as in one hand he was holding a suitcase and the other he was holding a guitar case. His black hair resembled a mullet, and his green eyes had a lazy or calm look in them. He was wearing a green shirt with a hand print on it with camouflage sleeves and black jeans.

"Here's contestant number nine, Trent!" Chris exclaimed, as he high-fived the new guy. "Hey, isn't that your favorite number, dude?"

"It sure is, Chris." Trent replied, smiling. "What's up everybody?"

Everyone, except for Courtney, Duncan and Gwen, greeted the musician as he joined them. Standing by Gwen, he gave her a greeting smile, which she rolled her eyes at. As he looked away, a small smile crept upon the Goth's lips.

Next up was the stereotypical hot guy. With tanned skin and long wavy hair, the "Adonis" joined the rest of the crew on the dock. He was wearing a green t-shirt, blue jeans and a necklace around his neck.

"Justin, what's up?" Chris asked, greeting him.

"I'm just gonna win." Justin shrugged and flashed his brilliant smile. "And when I do, I'll be donating the winnings to the ULPWF."

"What's that?" Trent asked, raising an eyebrow.

"The Unattractive Looking People Wish Foundation." Justin explained, his smile not leaving his face. "Yeah. I know. Shocker that such a hot guy like me would donate anything to the needy, huh?"

There were mixed responses to Justin. Some were annoyed by him, mostly the rest of the guys. Some were enamored with him or adored him, such as the girls and Owen. As he joined them, the next contestant set foot upon the dock.

The girl was big boned and dark skinned, with her black hair tied in a pony tail. She was wearing a faded yellow t-shirt with apples on them, blue jeans, and hoop earrings.

"Hey, y'all!" she greeted, smirking. "LeShawna's in the house!"

"Sup. LeShawna?" Chris greeted, grinning once again.

"Nothin' much, my homey." LeShawna stated, walking over to stand by DJ and giving the gentle giant a high-five. "Sup, my brother?"

"Nothing much." DJ replied, smiling at the slightly shorter girl.

"It's good to see our contestants getting along." Chris smirked, before whispering to the camera. "Would be better if they were fighting… That would boost up the ratings…"

Once Chris was finished whispering, he noticed that the next two contestants had stepped onto the dock, squealing in joy. The two girls were best friends and were dressed completely alike, even down to their hairstyles: their black hair was in pigtails, they were each wearing a black and white striped shirt revealing their midriffs and pink shorts. The first of the girls was tan skinned, taller, and skinnier; while the other was lighter in complexion, shorter, and a little bigger.

"Look, Sadie, it's a summer camp!" the tan girl squealed in delight.

"So cute, right Katie?" Sadie replied, smiling happily.

"Right!" Katie added, nodding excitedly.

"Katie and Sadie!" Chris greeted the two inseparable Best Friends for Life. "Welcome to Total Drama Island!"

"Like, thanks, Chris!" Katie giggled at the host.

"So glad to be here!" Sadie added, giggling as well.

"Aren't they… chipper?" Justin asked, raising an eyebrow, but still flashing his brilliant smile nevertheless.

"Sure are." Chris responded, flashing his trademark smile as well.

As Katie and Sadie continued to squeal in joy, the fourteenth contestant began his trek down the docks. He had a light complexion, long brown hair like a mullet covered by a blue hat called a toque, and some slight facial hair on his chin. He was wearing a green hoodie and blue jeans, along with the aforementioned hat.

"Hey! It's Home school!" Chris exclaimed, grinning at the newest competitor. "What's up, Ezekiel?"

"I think I see a bird." Ezekiel pointed up, showing that he was a little clueless in some areas.

Almost everyone let out a chuckle at the brown haired teen's clueless streak before Chris finally motioned for Ezekiel to stand with the others.

"I'm Geoff, bro!" Geoff greeted the new guy.

"Nice to meet you!" Ezekiel replied, grinning.

"…Not dramatic." Chris rolled his eyes at yet another calm conversation, before jumping in fright when he heard a wheeze type noise coming from behind him.

It was the fifteenth contestant who had made the wheeze. The teen had auburn colored hair trailing down his neck and the same color facial hair on his chin. He was wearing green tinted glasses, a blue short sleeved shirt with a hamburger on it over a long sleeved pink shirt and green-ish grey pants. Several of the contestants believed that he resembled Napoleon Dynamite.

"Harold, don't do that!" Chris scolded the newest contestant.

"Sorry. Gosh!" Harold exclaimed, as he toted himself and his suitcase over to the others.

"Looks like I found someone to pick on this summer." Duncan smirked at the lanky teenager known as Harold. Harold gulped in fright, while Courtney rolled her eyes at the delinquent.

Before anything else was to be said, a thud resounded on the dock. A red headed girl had tripped and hit her chin on the edge of the dock while exiting the boat she was on.

"Is anyone going to help her?" Gwen, of all people, called out, scowling at Chris.

After Gwen stated the obvious, Ezekiel and Geoff ran over to help the girl onto the dock. The green eyed girl was wearing a dark green tank-top and dark green shorts with a light green wrap around it.

"Are you alright?" Katie called out, worried for the girl.

"Yeah, are you okay?" Sadie added, just as worried.

"That felt… good!" the girl had a wild look in her eyes. "That was fun! I need to do it again sometime! What's next? Crafts? Lunch?"

"That is a good call!" Owen nodded at the thought of lunch.

"Not yet, Izzy." Chris shook his head at the girl. "We have to wait for the other six contestants to get here."

Izzy just shrugged, as her luggage was thrown off of the boat she was on. The hyper girl picked them up, and ran over to her fellow contestants.

As Izzy's boat departed, the next boat dropped off its contestant. It was a teenage guy with brown hair slightly covering his bluish green eyes. He was wearing a yellow shirt with a red and green stripe across it and blue jeans.

"Cody; the Codester; the Codemeister!" Chris greeted the new guy, a smirk on his face.

"What's up Chris?" Cody asked, giving a smile revealing a gap between his two front teeth. "I see that the girl's have already arrived."

"Yep!" Izzy yelled out, just when Chris was about to reply to Cody. "I'm a girl! Actually, when I was going to be born, my family thought I was going to be a guy so they bought all blue clothes. I was just a surprise, you know? I like surprises!"

"I do, too." Cody responded, giving a sly smile, and taking his belongings over to the other contestants.

The next person to walk down the dock was a girl with bright, blonde hair and lazy, green eyes. She was wearing a light blue hoodie and blue jeans, and was carrying a surfboard in one hand and a suitcase in the other.

"Our surfer girl, Bridgette, is here!" Chris explained, smirking at the girl.

"Not much of a beach." Bridgette mused before walking over to the others, with a smile. "Hey, guys."

"I'm Geoff!" the blonde haired party guy exclaimed, grinning at the girl.

"And I'm Ezekiel." Ezekiel added, smirking at the new girl.

"Nice to meet you two." Bridgette nodded, before walking over to stand on the other side of Geoff.

The next girl to arrive gave a squeal in joy, much like Katie and Sadie did. The brunette had her hair up in a standing up ponytail (maybe mirroring Pebbles from the Flinstones) and was sporting braces and rectangle framed glasses. For her clothing, she was wearing a lime green shirt which was tied in a knot in the back, a light green vest, and pink pants.

"Chrith McLean!" the girl lisped, running over to the host, almost dropping her luggage in the process. "I finally get to meet you! Thith ith tho awethome!"

"Nice to meet you, Beth!" Chris grinned, always happy to see a fan. "Welcome to the show."

"I'm so glad to be here!" Beth squealed once again, before running over to the other teenagers.

"Must be fun to have fans, huh?" LeShawna smirked, teasing the host.

"Sure is!" Chris grinned, folding his arms. "Makes this all the more worthwhile."

The next person to show up was holding a red book in his hands. His skin was tanned, he wasn't the tallest contestant, and his hair was dark-brown. He was wearing a green and red sweater vest over a long sleeved white t-shirt and grey khakis.

"Welcome aboard camper twenty, Noah!" Chris greeted the newest competitor as he walked up the dock.

"Whatever." Noah didn't even look up from his book, as he traveled across the dock. "Yay. We're stuck at a dump for the next few weeks. Just wonderful."

"You sure are cheerful." Cody teased the bookworm as he joined the rest of the contestants.

"Oh, yeah, as cheerful as a butterfly." Noah rolled his eyes and glanced back down at his book.

Meanwhile, the twenty-first contestant began her strut down the docks. The girl was of Asian ethnicity with long, flowing, black hair. She was wearing a red tank-top with the straps around her neck and grey short-shorts. She had a nasty scowl on her face, and wasn't so delighted to be there, it seemed.

"And number twenty-one is Heather!" Chris exclaimed as the girl walked down the dock, pulling her pink suitcase behind her.

"This looks nothing like the brochure." she scoffed, turning her nose up to the air. "Run out of money, honey?"

"She's just oodles of fun." Harold whispered to the nearest person, who, in this case, was Justin. Justin chuckled as Heather exclaimed that she heard that.

"Whoo-hoo!" A cheer was heard from the last boat, as a red blur leaped from the boat and went sailing into the water.

The final guy was soon on the dock, with a happy grin on his face. He had shoulder-length brown hair with a red headband around it, and was wearing a red athletic jumpsuit. As he walked up the dock, he let out a chuckle when he saw that he had accidentally drenched Heather.

"Nice one, Tyler." Chris high-fived the jock as he made the final trek down the docks.

"Thanks, bro." the drenched jock replied, grinning.

"Hell-o!" Heather yelled, irritated. "Did you have to drench me?"

Tyler just shrugged and stood over by Owen, Lindsay and Noah, grinning all the while.

"Well, that's twenty-two!" Chris observed as he scanned the faces of the twenty-two teenagers.

"So, do we start the competition or what, eh?" Ezekiel asked, raising his hand for Chris to notice him.

"Not yet, Zeke." the host shook his finger, disapprovingly. "First… we need a picture for the promos, alright? Everyone over at the end of the dock!"

As they were told, the twenty-two teenagers (including the drenched Tyler and Heather), all moved over to the end of the docks and prepared for the pictures. Some, such as Owen, pumped their fists in the air for the picture. Others, such as Gwen, just simply smiled for the camera.

"Alright… Three…Two…" Chris muttered, holding a silver digital camera to take the picture. "Wait… I forgot the lens cap."

Noah smacked his forehead and rolled his eyes. "Nice going, genius."

Chris gave a glare at the bookworm, before attempting to take the picture, once again.

"Three…two…" Chris muttered, once again. "Wait! Camera's full."

"Could you hurry up?!" exclaimed Eva, impatiently.

After a few seconds of delay, Chris switched out the memory cards for the camera, and fiddled with it for a minute. Finally, the host with the five o' clock shadow, even though it was only noon, held the camera up to his eyes, once again.

"On the count of three, say… 'Wawanakwa'!" Chris explained, before beginning the countdown. "Three! Two! One!"

Unfortunately, just as Chris was taking the picture, the dock gave way; sending all twenty-two contestants hurdling into the water. About two minutes later, they were all on the beach, soaked and annoyed.

"Alright!" Chris had obviously enjoyed that. "Go wash up and head for the campfire pit! You have ten minutes! …We'll be back right after these messages."

At the campfire pit, each contestant was sitting on an individual tree stump, awaiting what Chris was going to say. Five minutes later, the host had finally showed up. Better late than never.

"Where were you?" Bridgette asked, just a little impatient.

"My hair got splashed when you fell." Chris explained, shrugging. "Had to re-do the whole look, you know?"

"I agree!" Beth nodded, flashing her metal smile at the host.

"Can he be anymore narcissistic?" Justin asked, before pulling out his favorite pocket mirror.

"You're one to talk." Cody teased, causing Izzy, who was sitting beside of him, to giggle.

"Alright!" Chris interrupted, grinning. "Enough chit-chat! It's time to get the rules out of the way! As you all know, the person remaining at the end of this summer will win one-hundred thousand dollars."

At the mention of the prize money, almost everyone began cheering and clapping in excitement. Of course, anyone would be excited at the chance to win a tenth of a million dollars.

"As for sleeping arrangements," Chris continued. "each team gets one cabin. Cabins are divided into two areas. Guys in the left area and girls on the right."

"Thanks goodness." Courtney breathed a sigh of relief. "Guys in one room and girls in the other?"

"Yep!" Chris nodded, grinning. "Now, for your teams. The following eleven contestants move to the left side: Gwen, Trent, Heather, Cody, Lindsay, Beth, Katie, Owen, Justin and Noah."

The eleven stood up and moved to the left, Katie giving a sad wave to Sadie as she followed her team.

"The eleven of you will be…" Chris grabbed a green flag with a gopher on it, shouting a war cry. "the Screaming Gophers!"

"Yay!" Lindsay cheered, clapping and jumping up and down. "…Gophers?"

"Nice name, Chris." Trent teased, smirking. "Think that up in kindergarten?"

"I didn't think it up." Chris defended, returning a smirk.

"Who did?" Gwen asked, raising an eyebrow.

"You'll find out soon enough." Chris replied, mysteriously. "Now. The rest of you: Geoff, Bridgette, DJ, Tyler, Sadie, Izzy, Courtney, Ezekiel, Duncan, Eva and Harold. You guys are… The Killer Bass!"

As Chris retrieved a red flag with a fish on it, several of the team members looked either annoyed, confused or cheerful.

"Killer Bass?" Eva rolled her eyes and scoffed.

"Sweet!" Harold pumped a fist in the air.

"I so want to meet who came up with these names." Duncan sneered, smirking.

"You will, soon enough." Chris explained, smirking. "The cabins are in the main area of camp. The Gopher cabin is the left cabin, while the Bass cabin is the right cabin. Any questions?"

"You have to let me and Sadie be on the same team!" Katie exclaimed.

"We'll just die without each other!" Sadie added, nodding in fear.

"Sorry." Chris just smirked and shrugged. "Teams are teams."

The two girls looked devastated as they were separated. The two best friends gave each other a quick hug before moving over to their respective teams.

"Now what?" Owen asked, grinning and rubbing his hands together. "Lunch?"

"Not quite, Owen." Chris chuckled at Owen's hunger. "First, let me introduce you to… The Confessional Cam."

Chris motioned towards an outhouse, a couple of yards away from the campfire pit. All twenty-two teenagers looked really confused. That was the confessional cam?

"You're kidding, right?" Tyler asked, chuckling slightly. "He's totally pulling our legs!"

"You are pulling our legs, right?" Noah asked, looking up from the book he was reading.

"Nope!" Chris grinned. "To share your thoughts in the competition, you must go into the confessional cam! Fun, huh?"


*confessional*

Katie: *obviously unhappy* I just have to be with Sadie! This is so not fair!

Bridgette: *smiling* This looks like this will be fun. Can't wait for the first challenge. Go, Bass!

DJ: *chuckles* Everyone seems so nice! …Except for Heather… And Eva… And Noah… And Justin.

Trent: *shrugs* I kind of like Gwen. She seems really nice, you know? She seems like the loner type, but maybe I can get to be her friend.

"Alright, move out to your cabins, kiddies!" Chris exclaimed, smirking. "Dinner's in thirty minutes, so unpack and whatever!"


Gopher Cabin, Girls' Side

LeShawna smirked as she walked into the room. She was the last girl to arrive in the room, and was soon walking up to Gwen.

"You mind if I bunk with you?" LeShawna asked, smiling at the girl.

"Sure." Gwen shrugged, simply. "I don't mind."

"Yay!" Lindsay cheered. "This is gonna be just like a slumber party! Right, LeFonda? Right, Gina?"

"That's Gwen and Lethawna, Lindthay." Beth corrected.

"Oh! Thanks, Belle!" Lindsay smiled and nodded, happily.

"That's Beth, sugar." LeShawna chuckled at Lindsay's third mistake in the last thirty seconds.

"Give it up," Gwen smirked, sitting on her bed. "she doesn't get it."

"We'll teach her!" Beth exclaimed, smiling, before looking over at Katie. "Aww. Don't feel bad, Katie. Maybe you'll both be in when the teams merge."

"How do you know the teams are gonna merge?" LeShawna interrupted, raising an eyebrow.

"I read the fine print." Beth giggled, victoriously. "So, what do you say, Katie? Cheer up?"

"Alright." Katie shrugged, feigning a smile. "I'll try."

"Would you five be quiet?!" Heather almost screamed in irritation. "It's like living in a zoo with you guys!"

Katie, LeShawna, and Gwen shot the queen bee a few icy glares, while Beth and Lindsay looked at the sixth girl in fear. Heather finally rolled her eyes and strutted outside, muttering something about heading to the cafeteria.

"Isn't she fun?" Gwen stated, rolling her eyes.


Killer Bass Cabin, Boys' Side

"This is going to be an all out party!" Geoff yelled, grinning. "Whoo-hoo!"

"Will you keep it down?!" A voice screamed from the girl's side.

"You keep it down, Eva!" A voice that Duncan recognized as Courtney responded.

Before long, a screech filled the air, making the guys jump in shock. The six guys looked at each other in confusion and curiosity.

"W-what was that?" DJ stammered.

"It sounded like it was coming from the Gopher girls' cabin." Harold explained, matter-of-factly.

"Wanna go see what the commotion's about?" Duncan asked, standing up and cracking his knuckles.

"I'm in." Tyler nodded, smirking, and cracking his knuckles, as well.

"Any other takers?" the delinquent asked, smirking.

Geoff, Harold, and Ezekiel all nodded at the plan. Before long, all eyes were on DJ, who just sat on his bed, stuttering.

"Wh-what?" DJ asked, nervously.

"You coming, eh?" Ezekiel asked, motioning for DJ to come with them.

"I-I guess." DJ finally gave in, and stood up to follow his five roommates.


*confessional*

Harold: I think DJ suffers from post-traumatic syndrome. …I saw it on an infomercial.

Duncan: DJ suffers from the worst disease of all. I'm-a-chicken-osis.

DJ: *nervously tapping his fingers together* I-I just wonder what made that scream… or what caused that scream. *nervous sigh*


All twenty-two contestants were in the cabin to see what was going on. The fact was, a cockroach had came into the room, and Lindsay had screamed in terror. After around five minutes of ruckus, Duncan took out an axe and sliced the thing in two.

"…Why do you have an axe in your duffel bag, bro?" Geoff asked, back in up slowly.

"Why wouldn't I have an axe in my duffel bag?" Duncan countered, smirking.

"Well, he's obviously not crazy." Eva stated, her voice oozing of sarcasm.

"You sound like Noah." Duncan teased, smirking.

"I resent that!" Noah interrupted, annoyed.

A loud screech of microphone feedback filled the air, causing everyone to hold their ears in pain.

"Campers," Chris's voice boomed over a megaphone. "report to the Mess Hall for dinner! McLean, out!"


The twenty-two teens found them lined up in front of a burly, dark-skinned man in a chef's uniform. Chris had introduced him as Chef Hatchet, and he was the mastermind behind the team names. When they received their food, twenty-one of the twenty-two teens complained in some way or another. The food didn't even look edible! The only person who didn't complain was Owen, who was just happy to eat.

"You have thirty minutes to eat." Chris explained, smirking. "You then have thirty minutes to change into your swimsuits and meet me on top of the Wawanakwa Cliffs. Your first challenge awaits!"

"We're doomed." Gwen sighed, staring at her grotesque dish. "First we have to eat inedible food… then a challenge. Great."

"I know!" Chris replied, grinning. Today was going to be a long day.
