A/N: I want to thank everyone who reviewed chapter one. I didn't think I'd get such a great response, lot of nice C/H fans out there. Forgot to mention last chapter that there will be no musical numbers. Or at least they won't be mentioned. You can always imagine they're singing at some point, feel free. This chapter is probably the most similar to the actual episode so you'll be seeing some familiar dialogue. Future chapters will have less and less of this.

World Tour Halfway Remix

Chapter 2

Heather, Gwen and Courtney sat in economy class as the plane flew them to a new destination. Heather sat alone near the end while Courtney and Gwen sat next to each other talking.

"Losing sucks…" Gwen whined as she rubbed her sore back.

"No kidding," Courtney sighed. "I wonder where Duncan is."

"Wouldn't it have been great if Duncan was in London and we found him?" Gwen asked. "Then he could've come back."

"That would've been awesome!" Courtney nodded. "But why would Duncan be in London?"

The Goth looked taken back. "Good point. I guess London is a pretty random place for us to find him. I wonder where he is?"

"He's probably back in Canada." Courtney answered. "Maybe he got sent back to juvie." This caused both girls to laugh slightly. Heather on the other hand rolled her eyes.

Up in first class the guys were all relaxing. Cody was up there too eating freshly baked cookies talking to Noah and Owen. "These are delicious!" He said chewing on chunks of cookie. "Thanks for inviting me up here guys."

"Happy to have you here buddy!" Owen said before grabbing some of the cookies for himself.

Noah smirked. "We're all friends up here. Right Al?"

Alejandro twitched but tried to remain calm. "Of…course. I know I do not mind. How about you Tyler?"

The jock who was sitting a few seats away looked alarmed as Cody looked up at him. "Oh…yeah! I don't mind. Its cool bro I didn't see anything—I mean say anything!" He tried to laugh it off but Cody gave him a weird look while Alejandro looked on curiously.

*Confessional*

Alejandro: Something's going on with Tyler and Cody but I don't know what. Are they in an alliance? No, neither of them seems like the type to do that. Not only that but now I have to deal with Noah. It would've been so much easier if I could've voted him off last episode! From all I've heard about Ezekiel he'll probably be a hindrance rather than a help.

Noah: After last night I know that Alejandro heard what I said about him. Luckily our team wasn't at elimination so he can't get me. I just need to make sure he doesn't convince the others to eliminate me.

Tyler: What am I supposed to do? I saw Cody and Heather kiss and I'm really bad at keeping secrets!

*End Confessional*

Just then Chef walked into first class along with Ezekiel who looked much better than he had last night. Most of the green had left his face and with a fresh change of clothes he looked almost presentable.

"Alright home-school you're free to go." The black man said pushing him forward. "Just don't eat anymore rats." And with that he left the room.

The others walked over to him. "Wow Zeke you look much better." Tyler said slapping him on the back.

"Yeah, you almost look normal." Noah smirked.

"Thanks eh! I'm just glad I'm back in the game." He shivered for a moment as if remembering something horrible. "The front of the plane is much nicer than the back. No rats up here…"

Chris had called all the contestants together around a table and they were now waiting for Chris to announce what they would be forced to do next. "Prepare yourself for challenges of an amateur caliber!" At this some of the contestants looked confident.

"Because we're recreating the original Olympics! And we're heading to the birthplace of the Olympics right now in…"

"Greece!" Courtney answered.

"Wrong! We're going to Rome Italy!"

"Pizza party!" Owen shouted.

"But Courtney was correct," Alejandro said. "The Olympics originated in Greece."

Chris started to tell him he was wrong when Gwen interrupted and confirmed it was Greece. The host started looking through his notes before shouting out. "Interns!" Two guys suddenly appeared at his side. "Everybody should probably hang on to something. Everyone except…you." He pointed at one of the interns. The plane suddenly turned sharply to the right and the intern was thrown out.

Chris looked at the other intern. "You might want to find some info on Greece. Quickly." The intern ran off. "Greece it is. Chef, slight change of plans…" The host walked out of the room.

After changing course and landing in Greece they all got off the plane. Both teams stood together and waited for Chris to announce the challenge.

"Welcome to the Acropolis in Athens Greece! Home to many of the very first Olympians who, as my intern has informed me, competed naked."

Owen sighed. "Okay, time to drop the laundry…" he started to unbuckle his pants causing the other contestants to turn away in disgust.

"No no no!" Chris objected. "That was just a quirky fact, not an order. There's no reason to be one hundred percent accurate. Stay dressed," he ordered Owen. "Very dressed. We only have to resort to nudity if there's a tie breaker."

He shoved his notes into his intern's hands and walked forward. "Today we're going to do things a bit differently. Since team Amazon is down a player and team me is an all guy team all today's challenges will be one on one matches. Every victory gets you a gold medal. The team with the most gold wins first class tickets to our next destination. Second place wins a brutal elimination ceremony."

"So is this going to be another physical challenge?" Noah asked. "Because I don't do those well."

"Come on guys," Zeke spoke up. "We can do this eh! Now that I'm back in the game there's no way I'm gonna lose!" He started to run forward but suddenly tripped.

"Hmmm," Alejandro frowned. "That's really something I expected of you Tyler."

The jock frowned. "It was really something I wanted to do..."

*Confessional*

Noah: Come on Chris! For once, can't we do something mentally challenging rather than physically? This show is rather biased toward athletic people.

*End Confessional*

"Our first historical event is a Greece scavenger hunt!" Chris proclaimed as they walked through the lines of pillars. "Inside of the podium of Heracles is filled with maze like rows of huge columns. Players must search through this ancient forest of columns and return with the treasure that awaits you inside. First one to do so takes the gold! So who's going in?"

"Me." Gwen volunteered.

"I'll go first eh." Ezekiel also spoke up.

"Gwen verse Zeke it is!" Chris smiled. He then threw a garbage can lid to each of them.

"Uhh why do we need these?" Gwen asked.

"These authentic Spartan shields will help you in your treasure hunt." Chris explained. "For the treasure you seek is tied to a boar. Good luck to you both. Chef, sound the Spartan battle horn!"

Chef pulled out a kazoo and blew through it. Chris groaned. "That's the Spartan battle horn? For reals? Just…go already." Zeke and Gwen walked off. "The rest of you follow me."

"Pankration was an ancient Greek martial art with no rules." Chris explained for the second challenge. "Last man standing wins the gold."

Courtney spoke up. "As the strongest Amazon I volunteer to fight for our team."

"I'm pretty sure I'm the strongest," Cody flexed.

Courtney laughed at him. "As I was saying…"

"Does anyone from team I am really really hot want to get involved here?" Chris asked.

"Come on Al! We can take them!" Owen said smushing Alejandro under his arm.

"Wait! I was on the wrestling team in grade school!" Tyler said.

"Then we should make an arrangement," Alejandro said turning to Tyler. "I'll give you my spot if you swear you'll repay me the favor down the road." Tyler gave him the thumbs up. Noah just rolled his eyes and sat back to watch.

"We're gonna destroy you!" Owen said as he and Tyler tried to look tough.

"Sold! Into the ring with all of you!"

"My first Olympics!" Owen said happily. "This is so cool!"

Just then Cody charged the big guy only for him to use his enormous weight to knock his smaller opponent into the air. Courtney looked worried. "Yeah…I hope Gwen's doing better than we are."

Meanwhile Ezekiel had found the bear that Chris was pretending was a boar. "Ahhh!" He screamed as it stood growling menacingly in front of him. The bear hit him across the face twice before jumping on his back.

Zeke could only scream in fright until Cody came flying out of nowhere and knocked the bear off of him. The tech geek looked at the bear who quickly ran away. "Hey thanks for the help Cody. That bear looked like it wanted to eat me eh."

"No problem…" Cody said feeling rather woozy.

Back at the wrestling pit Courtney was trying to punch Tyler who seemed hesitant to fight back. "That's it Courtney!" Heather cheered from the sidelines. "You show him whose boss! Go Amazons!"

"Come on Tyler, just pin her already!" Alejandro complained.

Tyler turned his head toward him. "I don't want to hurt a girl." But as he said that Courtney punched him in the face knocking him down on his back.

"Rawr!"

Cody ran up having made his way up. "Don't worry ladies I'm here to save you!"

Courtney still hopped up on adrenaline turned to yell at him. "Just stay out of my way pipsqueak!"

"Pipsqueak?" Cody muttered glaring at the CIT. "Don't—call—me—short!" In a burst of anger he pushed her out of the ring.

Chris stepped into the ring. "That's two gold for Chris is really really really hot!"

"What? Two?" Courtney objected. "But I beat Tyler!"

"You pushed him to the ground but both you and Cody were knocked out of the ring. And in a world where Owen can win an Olympic medal do the amazons really stand a chance?"

Gwen managed to get the gold necklace off of the bear to win the challenge. She had waited until the bear was distracted attacking Ezekiel and it didn't even notice her. After Chris confirmed she had won and Zeke had been saved from the bear they moved onto the next challenge.

"Welcome to the hurtles event! The ultimate test of speed and flexibility." Chris told them as they stood on a track lined with hurtles. "Players must leap higher and higher over these hurtles while they race to the finish line. First one across wins the gold. Team Amazon has to use Heather but either Noah or Alejandro can go for team me."

"No thanks;" Noah said stepping back, "I'm good."

Alejandro glared at Noah for a moment before stepping forward. "I have no problem volunteering."

Heather grinned confidently at Alejandro. "Sorry, but I'm fast and flexible." She demonstrated by pulling her leg all the way back to her head.

Owen rushed over to Alejandro. "If we lose tonight, we're going to vote out whoever didn't win a medal right?" To answer his question Alejandro tied his hair back in a ponytail using only his feet. Heather was wide eyed in surprise.

*Confessional*

Gwen: No man should be that flexible!"

*End Confessional*

Both Heather and Alejandro stood at the starting line waiting for the signal to sprint. Chris stood behind them with a horn. "On your marks…get set…go!" he blew the horn and the two racers started to run.

Both were successfully jumping over each hurdle but it was obvious Alejandro was doing a better job. He started to show off and walk on his hands. "Dude hurry up!" Owen yelled at him.

"Relax my friends everything is under…" But when he turned to look he didn't see the next hurdle and ran into it. Heather sped up when she saw this and crossed the finish line first.

"No!" The Spanish teen cried out in frustration.

"A gold for the Amazons!" Chris said holding up the gold for Heather to take. Team Amazon cheered while team Chris looked very disappointed.

Chris led them to a different area. "Since both teams have tied at two gold we need a tie breaker." Just then the intern from before pushed a cart carrying what looked like two pairs of wings made from feathers. "Chef spent over one hour building two sets of wings out of wax and the feathers we find in the plane's engine."

"One member from each team must strap on the wings and take flight all the way up there." He said pointing to the gold. "Whoever snags the gold out of the sky wins the Olympics and first class passes for their team. Noah will have to go since he was the only one not to participate. How about team Amazon?"

"I volunteer Chris!" Courtney raised her arm.

"And since it's a tiebreaker before you put on your wings please slip into these authentic Spartan battle costumes." Chris said handing out the costumes. "I hadn't expected a girl to volunteer so Courtney you just keep your shirt on." The CIT frowned.

Noah and Courtney came out a minute later dressed in the costumes. Noah looked rather uncomfortable. "Great…more humiliation."

"You're going down!" Courtney said poking him in the chest.

Meanwhile Owen was looking nervous. "This could be a close one…"

"Yes," Alejandro responded. "We need a distraction to slow team Amazon down." He turned to Tyler. "Time to pay back that favor. Please tell everyone what you know about Cody."

At this everyone looked at Cody confused but the tech geek and Heather suddenly looked very worried. Tyler also looked worried before finally spitting it out.

"I saw Cody kiss Heather!"

"And…go!" Chris said starting the challenge.

"What?" Alejandro yelled turning to glare angrily at Cody. His fists were balled up tight.

"Tyler you idiot!" Heather yelled at the jock. "Can't you keep your big mouth shut?"

"What?" Gwen said shocked. "You can't be serious. Cody likes me. Why would he kiss a witch like Heather?"

"More like why would she like him?" Courtney asked. "Cody is just some dweeb." She didn't notice but Noah had taken to the skies as he tried to fly to the gold.

"Now calm down Al!" Cody said backing away as the Spanish teen advanced on him while cursing in Spanish.

"How dare you nerd!" He yelled in English before punching Cody in the face. The brunette fell to the ground as Alejandro continued to punch him. Seeing this Owen, Zeke and Tyler ran over.

"Dude stop!" Tyler yelled at him as he and Owen grabbed Alejandro and tried to pull him off of Cody while Zeke tried to move the tech geek away.

"Don't—hurt—my—boyfriend!" Heather yelled as she kicked Alejandro as hard as she could in the groin.

A look of horrible pain crossed his face before he fell to the ground holding himself. "My kiwis!" he cried out in a squeaky voice.

Just then Gwen noticed Noah was halfway there. "Courtney!" She nudged the CIT and pointed. Without a second thought she jumped into the sky and started to fly after him.

Noah was getting tired and the feathers were falling out of his wings rapidly. Hearing something behind him he glanced back to see Courtney gaining on him.

"Alright that's enough effort from me." He said before his wings gave out and he fell back to the ground. Courtney never even looked back but made her way all the way to the top and grasped the gold in her hand before falling back down and landing on top of Alejandro.

"The Amazons win!" Chris declared. "And the losers will be heading back to the elimination room tonight."

Heather ran over to Cody and tried to help him up. "Cody? Cody, are you okay?" She asked concerned.

He looked up at her. "I'm—I'm okay Heather." He winced. "My face just hurts a lot." She believed him when he said this as a bruise was starting to form on his left cheek where he had been punched.

The others gathered around them (except for Alejandro). "Is it true Heather?" Gwen asked. Cody stood up and grabbed Heather's hand. He wrapped his fingers through hers then looked up and smiled at her.

"It—it is true." She nodded. "Cody and I are together now. I like him…a lot. Anybody got a problem with that?" She asked looking threatening.

"No problem!" Owen said looking scared.

"I'm cool with it!" Tyler nodded.

"I don't care either way." Noah shrugged.

Ezekiel actually complimented Cody. "Nice job Holmes! You scored yourself a girl!"

Courtney didn't care at all but Gwen frowned and looked at Cody. "She's just using you Cody. Heather's evil and she's never cared about anyone but herself!"

Heather looked worried but Cody didn't even blink. "You're wrong Gwen," he told the girl he used to like for so long. "Heather is a lot more than you think."

"Why Heather?" Alejandro asked; his voice still high. "Why would you choose that loser over someone as great as me?"

The queen bee frowned as she looked at the pathetic pile of man candy cradling himself on the ground. "Because Cody actually cares about me. He thinks I'm worth something and he makes me feel special. You on the other hand can't take no for an answer." She stepped on his face with her heel. "No doesn't mean yes, Al. It means no. So do yourself a favor and stay away from me and my boyfriend."

Hours later both teams were back on the plane as it flew through the night sky. Cody was sitting down next to Tyler in the kitchen while Chef put a bandage over the left side of his face. "There you go." He said finished. "You can take it off in a few days. Other than that your fine string bean."'

As Chef walked away Tyler turned to Cody. "Sorry about spilling your secret to everyone Cody."

"Nah it's cool." He shrugged. "I wanted to tell everyone anyway but Heather wanted to wait. This way is probably easier long term anyway."

Tyler's curiosity got the better of him. "How did it happen?" He asked. "I mean how did you end up dating Heather? We all thought you liked Gwen."

"Well I did," Cody explained. "But after we left Germany I heard her talking to Courtney about how tired she was of avoiding me and after that well…" He looked uncomfortably at his feet. "Anyway I decided to get over her. Since I was no longer trying to talk to her I needed someone else on my team to talk to. Sierra was never any good at conversation so I ended up talking to Heather. You know she's a better listener than you'd think."

Tyler nodded not fully understanding. "Well I don't get it but if you're happy then that's cool. There's no chance that Gwen is right though right?"

"No chance." Cody said calmly. Just then Chris' voice came over the intercom telling team Chris is reallyX4 hot to come to the elimination room. Tyler said goodbye before heading over. "Good luck…"

Tyler, Noah, Owen, Ezekiel and Alejandro sat down and waited after they all voted. Chris appeared looking holding four bags of peanuts. "Welcome team Me. One of you four will not be continuing and will have to take the drop of shame. But who? Let's find out."

"Owen, Tyler, Ezekiel," Chris threw a bag of peanuts to each of the three teens. "All three of you are safe. Noah, you failed your challenge and cost your team the win. Alejandro, not only did you fail but you beat up Cody who is friends with everyone else on your team. So who gets to stay?"

…

…

…..

….

…..Noah."

Chris throws the last bag at Noah who catches it. Alejandro looks shocked at the results. "What? You can't eliminate me! I'm the only real villain you've got on this show! That's why you let me on in the first place!"

"That is true," Chris nodded. "I had expected you to make it all the way to the end. But you did attack Cody and that wasn't cool bra. So it looks like it's your turn to say goodbye."

Chef picked the Spanish teen up and threw him kicking and screaming out of the plane. "You gave him a parachute right?" Chris asked Chef.

"I thought you had." A moment of silence and then they both burst out laughing. Team Amazon walked in. They had been watching from behind the scenes. Everyone but Courtney (who didn't care either way) and Owen (who liked Al) cheered. Zeke high fived Tyler while Cody hugged Heather.

"Well that was dramatic!" Chris said to the camera. "With our biggest villain gone can this show still be interesting or will our ratings plummet?" The host gulped when he said that. "Find out next time on Total Drama World Tour!"
