"Hello, viewers at home!" Obi shouted.
"We're the gang that's hosting!" Jeep said, leaning an arm on his shoulder.
"Hosting what, exactly, you might ask?" Tad spread his arms wide.
"Simple! The latest season of Total Drama!" JT snapped her fingers.
"Get ready for…" Thor started.
"Total!" The boys said.
"Drama!" The girls added.
"Best of Both Worlds!" They all said together.
Theme Song: I Wanna Be Famous
Dear Mom and Dad, I'm doing fine,
You guys are on my mind,
You asked me what I wanted to be,
and now I think the answer is plain to see,
I wanna be famous.
To live the life, a celebrity.
To see the sights, in reality.
Everyone will cheer when they hear my name,
I'll be that one day,
'Cause I wanna be famous!
Na na nana nana na nana nana na, nana nana nana!
I wanna be (seen!) I wanna be (heard!) I wanna be famous!
I wanna be (known!) I wanna be (loved!) I wanna be famous!
Doo doo doodoo doo doo...
End Theme
"For this season, we're taking players from Total Drama: Brains Brawn Beauty and Total Drama: When Worlds Collide, to pit against each other in the ultimate social experiment!" Jeep announced.
"They've been sent here, The K'wala Islands, an archipelago in New Zealand which has hosted seasons past, like Total Drama: The K'wala Islands and Total Drama: The Curse of K'wala," Thor said, subtly advertising the stories.
"Without further ado, let's see who you wanted!" Obi announced. "Who's hosting today, anyway?"
Thor whipped out a schedule from his breast pocket. "Oh, hey, it's me! And… JT. But, Obi, you have your boat thing with the- ah, special surprises."
"Right." Obi went right as Tad and Jeep went left, leaving only Thor and JT.
"We installed cameras on the boat containing our returnees," JT smiled.
"That was my line!" Thor whined.
"Shut up," JT said, still smiling. "We're on camera."
"Oh," Thor started to grin. "Why aren't they cutting to the Drama Boat yet?"
"They're waiting for your line."
"That's your line!"
"Right, but I took yours accidentally, so this one's yours."
Thor sighed. "Let's go there now!"

The scene began at a dining room of sorts. One boy was there, playing solitaire.
"Cards?" A girl asked as she walked by. She was short and had large glasses behind her curtain of dark hair.
"Yep," the boy responded. He pulled out a chair. "Wanna play?"
She smiled. "Sure."
"Do you know Go Fish?" The boy asked, shuffling the deck.
"Doesn't everyone?"
The boy paused. He smiled. "Yeah, I guess you're right."
There was a pause.
"I'm Alina, by the way," the girl said, reaching out her hand.
The boy shook it firmly. "Caeden. I don't think we were on the same season."
Alina shook her head. "I was on When Worlds Collide."
Caeden nodded. "That'd be why I don't recognize you. Do you play with seven cards?"
"Yep."
"Alright," Caeden dealt the cards, and picked up his hand. "Got any eights?"
Static
"This way, Dante," a girl commanded. She wore expensive clothes and jewelry.
The boy, obviously Dante, bowed. "Yes, ma'am." He wore a polished suit that went with his combed hair.
The girl frowned. "Dante, I've told you to call me Kalissa, have I not?"
Dante shook his head. "I apologize, ma'am, but to do so would be unprofessional. I have a level of service I must uphold."
Kalissa sighed. "Well, if the longest sentence that you've said in weeks is reminding me that you have to be professional, I guess you have to be professional."
"Yes, ma'am."
"Dante."
"Yes, ma'am?"
Kalissa inhaled. "What would you say if I told you I was in love with you?"
"I'd laugh politely at your joke, ma'am," Dante replied.
Kalissa sighed as the two rounded a corner, and bumped into a boy, knocking him over.
"Geez, watch it," the boy growled, getting up and dusting himself off.
"Hey," Kalissa pointed to him. "You're from Brains Brawn Beauty, right?"
"Yes, he is," Dante confirmed. "Though I can't place your name. Condor? Canary?"
"Cardinal!" The boy shouted. "But on this season, I'm… Vulture."
"Vulture," Kalissa repeated.
"Yes," Vulture grinned evilly. "A cold, manipulative antagonist. I suggest you stay out of my way if you want to stay in this game."
"Duly noted," Kalissa rolled her eyes. "Dante, please. I don't want to talk to this person anymore."
"Yes, ma'am." Dante dutifully walked over to Vulture and punched him in the gut.
"Shall we?" Kalissa asked. The two walked off in the direction Vulture had come from, leaving the boy on the ground.
"...Mother…" Vulture whimpered.

"Well, hello, Mr. Walrus," a boy said to himself, walking through a corridor. "I'm Jacob, and you are?"
He paused.
"Tobias the Walrus. Huh. Not a very common name, that."
He paused again.
"It was your father's?" Jacob whistled. "I like it. I got the name Jacob from a book. I can't remember what though…"
"...Oh yeah! A Christmas Carol! Come to think of it, I don't remember anyone named Carol in the book, so it's kind of a dumb name."
He paused for a third time.
"A carol is a song? I didn't know that. I don't listen to music- it makes my schizophrenia worse. But of course, you don't know what that is."
He paused yet again.
"That's what I thought you'd say, and you're close, but that's a common misconception, Tobias. Schizophrenia is where you have hallucinations, not split personalities." Jacob frowned. "How do I know that?..."
"...Oh yeah. I have schizophrenia. Well, Mr. Walrus- Mr. Walrus? Mr. Walrus?"
Jacob looked around frantically. "Nooooooooooo!"
Static
A boy and a girl were walking down the corridor, holding hands- they were obviously dating.
They paused when they heard Jacob's cry.
"Was that… a primal scream?" The boy asked. He wore a designer suit, and, most notably, had a large amount silver hair.
"It's probably just Jacob, Ali," the girl sighed. She was rather tall, with a black tank top and black pixie-cut hair. "This is our special day, so let's not worry about it.
'Ali' smiled. "Of course, Opal. How could I forget our one-year anniversary?" He said, looking at his hand to remember.
Opal smiled. "That's what I love to hear, Alysson. Let's go meet people!"
Alysson groaned. "Must we? We already know all these people from TV."
Opal put her hands on her hips. "We are meeting people, and that's final. Look! There's one now!"
She pointed to a punk girl, who was stabbing a table with her hunting knife.
"Um… Can we choose someone else- whoa!" Alysson struggled to keep his balance as Opal pulled on his arm.
"Hi!" Opal said brightly to the punk.
She looked at Opal. "Opal, from season one?" She asked flatly.
"Yes, that's me!"
"You used to look, like, eight." The punk snorted.
Opal's smile tightened. "I guess I did. I went through a growth spurt at the beginning of the summer, so that's why. And what's your name?"
"Name's Koh," Koh spat on the ground.
"Um… I'm Alysson, or Ali for short," Alysson interjected awkwardly.
"Didn't ask," Koh shook her head.
A beat.
"Well," Opal was struggling to retain her cheery disposition. "We'll leave you to… whatever it is you were doing. Bye, now!"
"Losers," Koh mumbled as they walked away.
Opal clenched her fist.
"Opal," Alysson said. "Remember your anger management classes."
Opal sighed. "You're right."
Koh coughed, hiding a laugh.
Opal turned around and launched herself at the punk. "Aiiee!"
"Opal!" Alysson pulled her back.
"What the heck? Trying to kill me?" Koh angrily brushed herself off. She showed Opal her knife. "Don't mess with me again, or you'll be sorry."
Before Opal could say anything, Alysson nodded. "We won't. Bye."
"Bye, Ali," Koh laughed as they left.

"Ohm… Ohm…" A boy in a plain brown monk's robe meditated on a table.
"Ohm…"
Suddenly, another boy materialized. He was tall and brawny, and looked... Hawaiian? "What's so good about measuring resistance?"
The monk boy peeked open an eye. When he saw who it was, he broke into a grin. "Keanu! How's life been treating you?"
Keanu smiled, too. "Good, good. And you, Nalin- you look like a million bucks!"
Nalin looked at his robe. "You really don't think I overdid it? It's cashmere, you know. Difficult to dry clean."
Keanu ruffled Nalin's hair. "That's the Nalin I know- always concerned about his robes. So what have you been up to?"
"Let's see… I took up knitting… Went to a Twenty Two Engineers concert… not much else. Oh! I brought you something back from Nepal!"
Nalin rummaged around in his robe pockets, gave up, and looked in his satchel. There, he pulled out a small stuffed animal.
Keanu took it carefully and examined it while Nalin beamed. "It's a handmade stuffed sheep!"
Keanu was emotionless for one second. Two.
His face contorted into a massive grin. "Haha! It's perfect!"
"I thought you'd like it," Nalin nodded, content. "What have you been doing?"
Keanu shrugged. "Eh. I did some surfing… ate some seafood… not much else. But this time, I'm determined!"
Nalin raised an eyebrow. "To win, or to redeem yourself with Bri?"
Keanu flushed. "...Yes."
Nalin shook his head. "Not to sound pessimistic, but you've got no chance."
Keanu puffed out his chest. "Oh, ye of little faith. I, Keanu, shall do what I must to achieve all of my goals! That's final!"
The big Hawaiian tripped over his own feet as he walked away.
Static
"Nooooooooo…" Jacob wailed.

A tall boy spoke into a rolled-up-paper megaphone. "The Ultimate Competition of… um…"
"Extreme and Utter Strength?" A second boy suggested. He was short, but rather handsome to boot.
The tall boy nodded. "..of Extreme and Utter Strength shall shortly commence."
"Tell them how it works, Rory!" A third boy said. He wore a ripped tank top, and was extremely muscular.
Rory, the tall boy, raised an eyebrow. "Why? There's no one else here. Just you, me, and Corbin."
Corbin, the handsome one, shrugged. "It's a fair point."
The other teen shook his head. "Dramatic effect, guys!"
Rory rolled his eyes. "Sure, Gryphon. Here's how it'll go. When I say 'go', you two will race to push these extremely heavy boxes down the hall. First to do so wins. Happy?"
Gryphon nodded. "Undoubtedly so."
"Let's get this show on the road!" Corbin rubbed his hands together.
"Alright," Rory let himself smirk. "Ready? Three… two… one… Go!"
Corbin and Gryphon charged at the boxes.
WHUMP!
It was like running into a wall. The boys fell down, dazed.
"How heavy are these boxes?" Corbin asked, struggling to stand.
Rory frowned. "Only, like, five hundred pounds."
"Five hundred?!" Gryphon gasped, clutching his shoulder. "Are you crazy?"
Rory spotted someone in the distance. "Hey! Someone's coming!"
Corbin and Gryphon stood up and tried to look normal- a losing battle.
"Hey, boys!" A girl called in a southern accent, from the other side of the boxes. She wore a pink cowgirl hat, and that's all that could be seen, since the boxes were as tall as she was.
"Oh, hey, Dixie," Rory called back. "Is Caeden there?"
"You can't see me, but I'm shaking my head," Dixie shouted. "I'm looking for him right now."
"I think I saw him in the kitchen," Corbin said. "Playing cards with a Japanese girl."
"Okay, thanks," Dixie said. "Mind if I join you? You're the fastest way to the kitchen."
"You can try," Gryphon said, "But those boxes are-"
He was interrupted by a low rumble, as Dixie pushed one of the boxes out of the way. "There we are; that was blocking the hall."
The three boys' jaws dropped as Dixie strolled away. "Thanks, boys."
Static
A girl lounged on the deck of the ship. She wore a low-cut tank top, white shorts, and designer sunglasses. Everything about her looked expensive.
"Ah…" She said, relaxed. "This is the life."
Suddenly, another girl burst onto the scene. She wore a sweater, blue jeans, and thick glasses- in essence, the exact opposite of the first girl.
"Sorry," the studious-looking girl apologized, looking nervous. "Can I study up here?"
The rich girl peered at her over her sunglasses. "Study? For what?"
The studious girl sighed. "If I get eliminated first, second, or third, I'll make it back in time for my midterms. It can't hurt to be prepared."
The rich girl looked like she wanted to say something, but stopped herself. "Yeah, sure. Study away."
The studious girl meekly cleared a table. "Thanks. I'm Jaedyn."
"Bri," Bri replied, turning onto her stomach.
Both girls were quiet for a moment.
"Um…" Jaedyn scratched her head. "This is awkward, but do you remember Newton's Third Law? It's not in the textbook, since we were expected to have them memorized, but I have a bad memory and-"
Bri groaned. "Isn't that the one with actions and reactions?"
Jaedyn snapped her fingers. "Of course! Thank you."
"No problem."
Finally, they were both quiet.
This, of course, meant it was the perfect time for another distraction, and it appeared in the form of a short Chinese boy.
"Hi, Tai," Jaedyn sighed. "What's up?"
Tai shrugged. He pointed to his stomach, as if to say he was hungry.
"Well, there should be some snacks in the kitchen, but I think we're getting a meal soon," Jaedyn reasoned.
"Ugh," Bri moaned. "Do any of you understand the concept of quiet?"
Jaedyn glared at her. "Tai might, since he's an elective mute."
"Oh…" Bri said weakly. "...What's that?"
"Psychological," Jaedyn said, as if that explained it. "You know what? I'm hungry too. Let's find some food, Tai."
Tai nodded and they departed.
Bri shook her head. "Making friends is hard…"
Suddenly, her ears perked up. "Do I hear… bells?"
She stood up and peered over the side of the deck, where, indeed, a motorboat was coming closer and closer.
"Not my problem," Bri sighed, and went back to her relaxation.
Static
"Hello, viewers!" Obi shouted. He had to shout since he was driving a motorboat with five teens in the back. "You might remember the talk of the special surprises! Well, here they are!"
The camera cut to the five teens. From left to right, there was a pale-faced, worried-looking boy, an expensively-clothed girl with a nasty expression on her face, a good-looking boy with casual attire, a petite girl who looked like she'd been crying, and a buff Mexican.
"That's right!" Obi yelled. "These five will be joining our alumni in the big competition! And," he dropped his voice as the motor quieted, "they'll be joining them on the Drama Boat too."
He turned around. "Players? Get on that boat!"
The teens smiled- except for the petite girl- and transferred to the much larger boat. Then, Obi drove away.
The scene changed, now showing all five of the teens in the boat.
"Well," the casually-clothed boy and the muscular boy said at the same time. They looked at each other and their eyes narrowed. "We should probably introduce ourselves," they said in unison again.
"I'll start," the casual boy said. "I'm Nicolas. I'm pleased to make each and every one of your acquaintances." He turned to the bratty-looking girl. "And who might you be, milady?"
"Ugh! I am not your lady, you creep, so get away from me!" The girl held up her hand, like she was too good for him.
Nicolas frowned. "I apologize. What was your name?"
"Auzzy," Auzzy spat. "Now shut up."
"Calm down," the muscular teen said. "I think you guys just got off on the wrong foot. I'm Pedro."
"You would be," Auzzy muttered. "Mr. Perfect."
Pedro blinked. "I'm assuming I should take that as an insult."
"Good," Auzzy stuck her tongue out at him. She turned to the sad-looking girl. "Who are you?"
The girl promptly burst into tears. "WAAAAAH!"
Auzzy laughed. "Loser."
"Hey now," the worried looking boy said, his voice quavering. "This is Anastasia. She's just a little nervous around people, that's all."
Auzzy directed her attention to the boy. "And who are you? You look like you're about to pee your pants, I might add."
"Damien Pri- uh, I mean Smith. Damien Smith," the boy blushed.
"You look real familiar…" Nicolas squinted at him.
Damien paled. "Nope. Not at all. Or I shouldn't, anyway, since I'm just a farm boy from Texas."
Nicolas frowned. "You don't look Texan. Or sound it."
Damien shrugged. "We moved from Hollyw- Holly… ville. We moved from Hollyville. Small town. You've never heard of it."
Nicolas shrugged. "Cool."
"Ugh, do you ever shut up?" Auzzy said, surprising everyone. She was talking to Anastasia, who was still crying.
"I- I- I- WAAAAH!" Anastasia kept weeping loudly.
"Ah, gee," Damien bit his lip. "You three can go. I'll stay with her."
"Okay," Pedro said. He looked at Nicolas. "A word?"
"Sure," The corner of Nicolas' mouth flicked upward. The boys moved into a corner of the room.
"Don't even bother with Auzzy man," Pedro said, nodding at the girl who was now yelling at Damien, for no apparent reason.
Nicolas smirked. "Is this what you call a man to man conversation?"
Pedro sighed. "I'm just saying. Look at her. She's a villain."
Nicolas, for some reason, found this funny. He almost laughed.
"But Pedro, bud. So am I."
Pedro's eyes widened and he ran away from Nicolas' haunted stare.
"And good luck making the others believe you!" Nicolas called. He left in the opposite direction, followed by Auzzy.
Damien and Anastasia were the only ones left in the room.
"Hey… It's okay…" Damien soothed the girl. "What's going on?"
Anastasia spoke for the first time, in a slight Russian accent. "I'm scared. What if they don't like me?"
Damien shrugged. "You'll get eliminated, I suppose. Look, I'm not one to sugarcoat things. But if you can work hard and make friends, you'll probably make the merge. Got it?"
Anastasia nodded and smiled. "Can… can we be friends?"
Damien grinned. "Of course. Can I call you Annie?"
She nodded. "Thanks."
Suddenly, a voice reverberated out of nowhere. "Attention! Could all competitors please report to the rec room on the second level? Thanks, and have a good day~!"
Damien smiled. "It looks like we'll start right now. Let's go, Annie."
Static
Caeden was the first to enter the room.
"First one! Ha- Dixie!"
He rushed over to the cowgirl and they embraced. "I missed you!"
Dixie smiled. "Me too!"
Meanwhile, Pedro entered the rec room from the other side, alone. "Man I've got to warn everyone about Nicolas! Maybe he was just joking… yeah, that'd be it."
He was interrupted when Opal entered the room, calling behind her, "Okay! You catch up, Ali!"
She bumped into Pedro, and they both stumbled.
Opal looked up. "Why, I oughtta… hi…" her voice went soft as she looked at Pedro.
"...Hi…" Pedro replied, staring at her.
"Hi!" Alysson jumped into the middle of them. He looked at Pedro. "Who are you?"
"Pedro," Pedro grunted. "I'm new."
Corbin, Rory, and Gryphon entered as a group.
"No way, dude," Gryphon shook his head. "Axe Murderer 3 was the best."
Rory shrugged. "I like the original. More plotline and less gore."
Corbin shrugged. "I like AM 2. Remember? When the girl goes into the closet, and-"
"He rips her head off!" They all said at once, and laughed.
"Yuck," Auzzy shoved past the boys. "I'm dying from the high testosterone levels."
"I know," Bri followed her. "It's like brainpower and stink are two mutually exclusive lifestyles."
Auzzy looked at Bri. "I like you."
Kalissa entered the room, with Dante close behind. They silently stood in a corner.
Nicolas came next. He was chatting up Jaedyn, who was blushing and giggling in spite of herself.
Tai, Koh, Jacob, and Alina walked in uneventfully.
Damien and Anastasia came into the room. Damien had almost coaxed a smile out of the little girl.
Nalin and Keanu were talking loudly as they went in. Keanu saw Bri, and they both blushed. Nalin steered him away. "Not now, buddy. We're playing hard to get, remember?"
Vulture was the last to enter. He was trying to act nonchalantly cool, yet evil. He looked constipated.
"Okay, we're all here now!" the self-proclaimed-villain snarled to no one in particular, although the room was full. "What's the surprise?"
"That would be me," Chris McLean smirked, appearing as he slid down a pole. "Gah! Metal burns!"
He shook his hands out awkwardly, before facing the crowd. "Hi, guys."
"Killer entrance," Gryphon called, causing the others to laugh.
Chris ignored the comment. "Welcome to the next season of Total Drama!"
There was the expected cheering.
"Well," Chris leaned on a wall, decided that hurt his hands, and stopped. "This season, as you can see, is made up of a wide range of players. In fact, there's only one person here who's been on more than one season, and that's Tai."
Tai waved.
"Just like previous seasons, the format will remain the same. Two teams. One challenge. One eliminee."
Everyone nodded; most of them had done this before.
"But, unlike previous seasons, this will be the hardest one yet. Here's why. First, there will be four immunity statuettes. Only four. And all of them are on this boat."
The players gasped.
Chris smirked. "These statuettes come with a twist- unlike earlier seasons, they must be played before the votes are read. So if you play it and nothing happens, well, your loss."
"Whoa," Caeden murmured.
Chris nodded. "I know. The second twist? I'm not hosting. These five are."
He pulled out a poster of the hosts. In it, Obi crossed his arms confidently, Tad and Jeep were arguing, and Thor was trying to flirt with a clearly uninterested JT.
"Um…" Alina raised her hand. "Has any one of these people hosted before?"
Chris shrugged. "Obi did a gig in Scandinavia, but other than that, nope. But let me explain the final, most important twist."
"Which is…?" Gryphon asked.
Chris looked at his watch. "Only that this boat is sinking. In about, oh, I'd say sixteen minutes, all of this will be underwater. So, I'd start getting my stuff, and looking for those immunity statuettes. Go."
The players were still frozen in shock. "I said GO!"
Chris exited the room as the players scrambled around.
"Oh my goodness!" Opal looked around. "Where's my stuff?"
Nalin grabbed his satchel and left immediately.
"Out of my way, loser," Vulture snarled, pushing Dante to the ground. "Revenge."
"Why are there ballerinas everywhere?" Jacob sobbed, trying to find his stuff, but dodging invisible barriers.
"This," Jaedyn murmured to herself. "Is chaos."
Fifteen Minutes, Fifty-Seven Seconds Later
BLOOP!
The boat went underwater.
"Welp," Corbin sighed. "There goes our stuff."
"And that's that!" Thor finished. He had a bag of popcorn in his hand. JT tried to take some popcorn. Thor pulled the bag away. JT slugged him in the shoulder.
Thor flushed and rubbed his arm. "What is this? Beat up on Thor day?"
"Who even names their kid 'Thor'?" JT snarked.
"I'm half Swedish, okay?" Thor protested weakly.
"And on that note," JT appeared. "It looks like the others are coming now!"
The scene cut to the twenty sweaty players, groaning and moaning.
"Worst. Hike. Ever," Opal said wearily. "Why couldn't you guys move over to shore?"
Thor shrugged. "It was hot out. Did you expect me to walk?"
Everyone groaned.
"Well, here they are, everyone!" JT called.
"That was my line again!" Thor said.
"Yeah, but you made an offhand comment, so it was my turn to talk," JT reasoned.
"Ugh," Thor shook his head. "Okay, then! Thank you all for coming today."
"Thanks!" Dixie said brightly.
"I assume Chris filled you in?" JT asked. The others nodded.
"Well, then, let's get right down to it," Thor rubbed his hands together. "Teams!"
Silence.
"Oh, highly exalted Thor," Koh rolled her eyes. "How dost we picketh the teams?"
"Good question!" Thor pointed to her. "As you can see, there are twenty-three of you, but only two teams."
JT smiled for the first time. "Since we can't have uneven numbers, here's how it's going to work. We'll choose team captains, and then they'll pick one teammate each. Then, those people will pick one person, and so on."
Thor leaned on JT, who immediately shrugged him off. "The last person to be selected…"
"...Will be eliminated," he finished dramatically.
There was an epidemic of gasping.
"And, for being first in the alphabet," JT declared, "Alina and Alysson will be our captains!"
"Alina, your team will be… The Dynamite Dogs!" Thor said.
"And Alysson, you will select the first member of… The Crazytown Cats!" JT added.
"Ready?" Thor asked.
"Get to picking!"
Alina looked at all of the players. "This is all so sudden… Um… Caeden."
"Nice," Caeden fist-pumped.
"Alysson?" JT asked.
"Opal, easy," Alysson smiled. Opal skipped over.
"Caeden?"
"Dixie," Caeden said. Dixie ran over and planted a kiss on his cheek.
"And Opal?"
"Pedro," Opal pointed to the handsome Mexican.
"Gee, thanks," Alysson grumbled. "But no competition."
"Alright…" Thor looked at the teams. "For the Dynamite Dogs, we have Alina, Caeden, and Dixie. For the Crazytown Cats, we have Alysson, Opal, and Pedro. Dixie, you're up."
Dixie looked at the others. "Rory."
Rory smiled. "Thanks."
"Pedro?"
"The, um, fancy guy," he pointed at Dante.
"Rory?"
"Corbin."
The boys high-fives on the Dogs' side.
"Dante?"
"Kalissa, of course."
Kalissa strode over promptly.
"Corbin, who would you like?"
"Huh, let's see… The new guy looks fun to play with," he pointed to Nicolas.
"Kalissa?"
"Bri."
Bri strode over.
"Here's the report so far-" JT said. "Over on the Dynamite Dogs, we have Alina, Caeden, Dixie, Rory, Corbin, and Nicolas. And for the Crazytown Cats, we have Alysson, Opal, Pedro, Dante, Kalissa, and Bri. Eleven are left- things are getting intense. Keep going; Nicolas?"
"Auzzy," Nicolas smiled. Auzzy spat on his feet.
"And Bri?"
Keanu looked at her expectantly. Bri shook her head. "Hum… Nerd Girl."
"Jaedyn," Jaedyn murmured as she walked over.
"Auzzy?"
"Koh," Auzzy shrugged.
"Jaedyn?"
"Um… Anastasia, right?" Jaedyn pointed to Anastasia, who nodded and joined them.
"Koh?"
"You," the punk pointed directly at Jacob. "You scream well."
Jacob shrugged. "I'll take it, unicorn."
"And… Anastasia?"
"Damien," Anastasia said. A happy Damien walked over.
Thor smirked. "Only five are left- Gryphon, Keanu, Nalin, Tai, and Vulture! For the Dynamite Dogs… Jacob?"
"The Disco Angel," Jacob pointed at Vulture. "I didn't even know those existed."
"Disco wha-!" Vulture scoffed. "I'll take it."
"Damien? Who would you like to pick?"
"Um… The monk."
Nalin joined the team.
"Vulture?"
Vulture grinned. "Keanu. I love breaking up friendships."
Keanu became the last member of the Dynamite Dogs. He frowned, as Bri and Nalin were both on the opposite team.
"Alright, Nalin," Thor stated. "This choice is a biggie. Only Tai and Gryphon are left- one will join your team; the other will go home. Consider your options carefully."
Nalin looked at Tai.
Then at Gryphon.
He raised a finger.
"I'll choose…"

"...Tai. Sorry, Gryphon."
Gryphon shook his head. "Wait, what? I'm leaving already?"
Thor nodded. "Yep! Don't let the butt hit your… I mean the door's way… I mean… GO AWAY!"
Gryphon trudged away, sad.
Thor surveyed the others. "Well, with that exit, we have our official teams! Here they are:
Dynamite Dogs: Alina, Auzzy, Caeden, Corbin, Dixie, Jacob, Keanu, Koh, Nicolas, Rory, Vulture
Crazytown Cats: Alysson, Anastasia, Bri, Damien, Dante, Jaedyn, Kalissa, Nalin, Opal, Pedro, Tai!"
"We'll give you a minute to meet your teams use the confessional, and whatnot," Thor stated.
Confessional: Dante- Crazytown Cats
"When Vulture pushed me down, I was lucky enough to find a statuette," he revealed the statuette in his palm. "Hopefully, I can use this to further my- or Kalissa's gameplay."
Confessional: Dixie- Dynamite Dogs
"I stumbled over one of these little fellas," Dixie showed an immunity statuette. "So I can play better now! Woo!"
Confessional: Koh- Dynamite Dogs
"Hey, look. I found one of these, heh heh," the punk shows a statuette.
Confessional: Pedro- Crazytown Cats
"Apparently, I found a statuette. Lucky me," he said, revealing a statuette in his hand. Hopefully, I can play it well."
"Well, that about covers it, I think," JT nodded, content. The two were watching the new teams interact.
"Should we tell them about the challenge?" Thor asked.
JT shrugged. "Nah. We'll let the next group do it."
To be continued...
A/N(s):
Thor: Fun Fact- I hate writing intros. But this one was actually okay. Hope you enjoyed the new characters. Auzzy is JT's, Pedro is Obi's, Damien is Jeep's, Nicolas is Tad's and Anastasia belongs to me.
