"This just in!" A news announcement came onto the radio that Chicken had on while he was playing cards with Scott and Lightning while Katrina, Jade, and Ellody watched their boyfriends. "A severe thunderstorm is about to hit, and viewers and listeners are advised to stay indoors in rooms without windows until our next broadcast. Flooding may occur, and-"

"Come on, play some music," Chicken complained as he tried to change the radio station. Then after a few moments, he finally found a station that would play music. "Finally."

"Chicken, I think you should listen to that warning, it sounds serious." Ellody said.

"Ah, I'm sure it's nuthin'." Chicken replied.

"So you think ignoring a severe weather warning is smart?" Ellody asked.

"Aw, will you relax?" Chicken replied. "Nothing's gonna happen."

"Don't say I didn't tell you so." Ellody mumbled to herself, not liking that answer, passing by Justine as she was relaxing in a lawn chair.

Sensei Jack and Ms. Honeydew smiled to each other as they chaperoned the trip since Principal Skarr and Ms. Butterbean went on their own vacation, and they seemed to look like they were in love with each other.

"It seems to be a nice turn out, doesn't it, Sensei?" Ms. Honeydew smiled to Jack.

"Yes, it would appear so," Jack smiled back to her. "Especially since I get to be here with you."

"Oh, you." Ms. Honeydew giggled to him.

"Hey, Sensei Jack, Ms. Honeydew, there's a Limbo game going on; aren't you guys coming?" Boomer asked the adults.

"Maybe later, sweetie." Ms. Honeydew told him.

"Okay!" Boomer smiled, running off.

"I'll go if you'll go, Jane." Jack smiled to the woman.

"Well, maybe I'll go then." Ms. Honeydew giggled to him.

Jack soon chuckled as he went along with the woman to go and play a round of Limbo. Mike, Lu, and Og sat in lawn chairs together by the sun.

"Okay... And... Flip!" Mike told them.

They then flipped over in the chairs while giving themselves some tans by the sunlight.

"Ah... This is the life, right guys?" Lu smiled.


While everyone enjoyed their cruise, there was a light thunder rumble heard.

"Mm... I don't think that was my stomach." Og said, holding his hand on his stomach as he heard a low sound.

"Well, whatever it was, it better stop before I stop it." Lu threatened.

"You don't even know what it was." Og said.

"Well, it'll stop because I'm the princess." Lu retorted.

"It sounds like thunder." Mike replied.

"Hmm... This is not good..." Og said.

"It's probably just someone's stomach or something." Lu tried to ignore it.

"Doesn't sound like that to me..." Og said as he came out of his chair and looked out into the sky.

The sky soon began dark and cloudy.

"It looks like we're gonna have a storm coming our way." Og warned.

"I tried to tell Chicken to leave the storm warning on the radio, but he wouldn't listen." Ellody said to the island native boy.

"Think the others will listen?" Og asked.

"I seriously doubt it." Ellody replied.

"What do you suggest we do?" Og asked.

"I don't know, I'd just say to tell everyone to go indoors, but who's gonna listen to us?" Ellody replied.

Og hummed as he flicked his nose ring and looked to see that the other students were having fun, forming a conga line led by Duncan.

"I'm leading a conga line, but I don't care, because I'm having too much fun!" Duncan laughed.

"You know what? Let them out in the rain until they find our shelter," Ellody told Og. "It'll teach them a lesson about not listening to us."

"Might be fair enough." Og nodded.

Then soon enough, Ellody and Og hid in the shelter while the other students were out, having fun.

"I'm no weatherwoman, but I feel like something might be amiss." Mike said.

"Will you relax, Mike?" Eddy said. "Nothing's gonna happen. Now stop being a wet blanket and have some fun."

"Eddy, look at the sky." Mike told him.

"So it's a little cloudy, so what?" Eddy replied.

"It's more than that," Mike told him. "I've lived on an island for a year, I think I know when a storm's coming with or without a weather report on TV."

"Pfft! Stop worrying and go have some fun," Eddy replied. "I'm going to join in the conga line. You wanna come?"

"No, because I'm going to hide in the shelter." Mike told him.

"What shelter?" Eddy asked.

"Why bother telling you?" Mike replied as she walked away. "It's not like you're gonna listen to me anyway. I thought if anyone would listen to me when I feel something wrong, it would be my best friend."

Eddy blinked and then looked a little guilty for not believing Mike.


Everyone continued to have fun until the blue sky soon turned gray.

"Oh, my..." Ms. Honeydew frowned as she shared a drink with Jack.

"Hey, who turned out the sun?" Anne Maria complained. "I'm trying to get a tan over here!"

"Like she needs it." Chicken whispered to Flem and Earl who snickered in response to that.

"Please, it's probably nothing." Sarah rolled her eyes.

Suddenly, a lightning bolt struck, hitting Sarah instantly.

"...Or not..." Sarah said weakly before falling into an ash pile with just her eyes like in cartoons.

"Well, who cares?" Courtney replied as she read her magazine. "I'm not getting out of this chair."

"Yeah, that's the smart thing to do," Stephanie said. "It's gonna rain!"

Ryan soon held out an umbrella for his girlfriend so that she wouldn't get wet.

"Still not getting out of this chair." Courtney scoffed.

"Oh, my, and I just got my hair done too." Justine pouted.

Ms. Honeydew and Jack soon went inside as it started to rain. Some thunder was soon heard, which scared everyone. Well, almost everyone.

"Still not getting out of this chair." Courtney continued.

"Well, forget you then!" Chicken said. "I hate getting wet!"

Most of the other soon went inside as it was pouring down rain with thunder rumbling and lightning flashing.

"We told you guys," Ellody said. "Wait a minute, where's Courtney?"

"Who cares?" Chicken rolled his eyes.

"She says she refuses to get out of her chair, but I doubt she can read her magazine anymore." Cow pouted.

"Well, someone has to go get her," Eddy said before touching his nose. "Dibs, not it!"

"Dibs not it!" Almost everyone repeated, touching their own noses.

"Huh? What?" Jayna asked, feeling confused.

"You're the only one who didn't call dibs, so that means you gotta go get Bossy Crabby Pants." Stephanie told her.

Jayna shrugged and soon walked off to get Courtney, but of course, it wouldn't be easy.

"There goes one brave soul." Jonny told the others.

"Ha, ha." Jayna deadpanned.

Courtney was shown to be outside.

"Hey, I know you don't care what I think or have to say, but you're gonna get sick if you stay out here, it's pouring down raining." Jayna told the girl.

"I'm perfectly fine out here, and I don't want you to ruin this for me." Courtney told Jayna.

"You're gonna get struck by lightning." Jayna told her.

"You can't tell me what to do, now get out of my way." Courtney demanded.

"Gladly, but if you get struck by lightning or catch a cold, it's not my fault." Jayna said as she walked off.

A lightning bolt then hit the ship, leaving a big hole, blocking Jayna's way.

"Yow!" Jayna yelped.

"Serves you right for bothering me!" Courtney glared.

"What is your problem?!" Jayna asked. "What happened to you anyway?! You used to be a nice girl!"

"I don't have to tell you anything because it's none of your business!" Courtney replied.

"WHY ARE YOU EVEN OUT HERE, COURTNEY?!" Jayna complained. "Are you dumb or something?"

"No, I'm not!" Courtney glared.

"You're outside in the middle of a storm, you're gonna get yourself sick!" Jayna glared back. "I didn't HAVE to help you, but I did, and I see it got me nowhere! Would it KILL you to be nice when someone is trying to help you? Oh, I guess it would, and I hope it does!"

"I wouldn't be talking!" Courtney retorted. "You think you're so great, but you're nothing!"

"Yeah, well, I got something you'll never have!"

"Oh, yeah? What's that?!"

Jayna was about to say something, but another lightning bolt struck, hitting the ship again.

"A boyfriend!" Jayna then said.

"Yeah, 'cuz you stole Justin from me!" Courtney said. "I could've made him REALLY happy, then you came along! If YOU'RE so smart, why don't you get us out of this?!"

"If YOU'RE so smart, why don't YOU, Miss CIT?!" Jayna retorted. "The only thing you're good at running is that big mouth of yours!"

"Why don't YOU go home with Mommy and Daddy?!" Courtney retorted back. "I'm sure that they would love to hear you complaining a lot!"

"Oh, like YOU never complain!" Jayna rolled her eyes. "All you do is complain and whine all day! YOU'RE A SPOILED, SELF-OBSESSED, OBNOXIOUS, WHINY, SELFISH, LITTLE BRAT, AND YOU'RE JUST GONNA GROW OLD AND DIE ALONE! AT LEAST I HAVE FRIENDS WHO LIKE ME FOR WHO I AM, SO BUZZ OFF!" she then shoved Courtney down as she stormed off.

Courtney growled and tackled the female Wonder Twin, causing both girls to get off the ship and land in the deep water which made everyone gasp in fear.

"Great... Just what I wanted..." Mike groaned. "I wanted a vacation away from drama, and here it's back again. What's the point anymore?"


Eventually, the storm was getting worse with the lightning hitting the ship.

"We're going to die!" Eddy cried out.

"I'm so sorry for not believing you, Ellody!" Chicken added.

"Are there any lifeboats?!" Ms. Honeydew cried out. "We have to save the children!"

"Yes, there are," Jack nodded. "I will go and grab them."

"Now, let's remain calm and don't panic." Skarr told his students.

A thunder boom was then heard which made Skarr yelp and jump in Ms Butterbean's arms. Ellody soon turned her head away from the others. Og soon did the same.

"It's okay, guys, I believed you." Mike said.

"Ah, don't worry, Mike, we're not mad at you," Og said. "It's just that no one ever listens to the smart people in an emergency."

"I think I know what you mean, Og." Double D agreed with him.

Dexter and Mary also nodded in agreement since some don't listen to them.

"Everyone, head for the lifeboats, hurry!" Jack called out. "There's room for everyone!"

Everyone rushed to the lifeboats and some pushed and shoved others out of the way to make it onto a boat. Jack carried Ms. Honeydew as she looked too scared to move.

"Oh, boy... I thought I left adventure behind after I retired from Global Security." Ms. Honeydew said to Jack softly.

"It will be all right," Jack soothed. "I'm here to protect you."

Ms. Honeydew blushed. The storm got worse and worse as everyone panicked, though some tried to stay brave.

"Boy, this brings back memories..." Mike whispered to herself from the storm and the sinking boat.

"This is just like Titanic!" Dee Dee cried out.

Mike soon got onto a lifeboat with Lu, Og, June, and Dee Dee. Eddy then jumped into his own lifeboat with Ed and Double D. The lifeboats soon began to leave the cruise ship as another lightning bolt soon hit it, making the boat catch on fire.

"It's a good thing that we got out of there as soon as possible." Cindy said softly.

"Who knew a storm would hit?" Lightning commented. "Someone should've said something."

Jade soon hit him with her hat.

"Ow! What did I do?!" Lightning complained.

"Maybe listen to yer girlfriend once in a while!" Jade glared at him. "She was tryin' to help, but SOMEONE ignored her!"

"I said sorry though!" Chicken said.

"Okay, the Lightning is sha-sorry." Lightning then said.

"I'm just upset and overwhelmed that you people always have to argue every time whenever someone tries to help you," Mike glared. "This isn't the Cartoon Network City I know and love."

"Then maybe you should leave CN City, Miss I'm-The-Best-Citizen-Ever." Kevin retorted.

"THEN I WILL, AT LEAST I'LL NEVER HAVE TO SEE OR HEAR JERKS LIKE YOU AGAIN!" Mike roared at him.

"Then nobody will miss you!" Sarah told Mike.

"I'll probably move away to Nicktropolis, Disneyville, or even PBS Town because then I will have less stress from you." Mike glowered as she soon rowed away from everyone.

"You guys are real jerks sometimes." Ellody glared as she soon rowed after Mike.

"What do you want from us?" Sarah asked.

"Maybe showing a LITTLE BIT of empathy?!" Cindy glared.

"Make me!" Sarah glared.

Cindy soon punched Sarah in the face, giving her a black eye and a bloody nose and soon went after Mike and Ellody. "Hey, can I join in on this?" she then asked.

"Sure, Cindy, come here." Ellody said, taking Cindy and letting her sit with her in her boat.

"Ooh, I'm gonna tell my mom!" Sarah threatened Cindy.

"Oh, put a sock in it!" Jayna told her before looking to the others. "Guys? You got room for one more?"

"Make that two?" Ashlyn added.

"Sure, guys, hop in." Mike smiled.

"Hey, Jayna, you made it out of the water." Ellody said to the female Wonder Twin.

"You really think I was gonna let your step-sister beat me?" Jayna replied. "Please... I've faced worse, especially at the circus with my brother."

"Glad to have you on board." Mike said.

"Thanks," Jayna replied before looking behind her. "I hope that Zan will be all right. I hate to leave him."

"I'm sure he'll understand," Mike said. "I just wanted ONE time where we could all actually have fun and get along, but I guess I can't even get that on a vacation that Principal Skarr was doing for US, but nooo... People just had to get arrogant and cocky all the time."

"With their popularity which won't even matter once we all graduate," Ellody rolled her eyes. "Who cares if they're popular? It's not gonna matter once we're all out of school, and I'd rather have friends who like me for who I am on the inside rather than being rich or parents on the PTA or whatever."

"Or when they just bully you because they think that they're higher up than you." Jayna added.

"I'm so glad that I'm leaving CN City." Ashlyn remarked.

"I wonder where we're going now?" Cindy said.

"I don't know, but I'm glad to be away from the others," Mike said. "Oh! No offense, guys, I mean-"

"It's okay, Mike, we understand." Ellody smiled.

"I'll probably get away from everyone in the summer," Mike said. "Maybe go to Nicktropolis or maybe Disneyville. At least there's not as much stress."

"Is that why you're leaving, Ashlyn?" Cindy asked. "Because of stress?"

"Not so much, I just wanna be closer to Ben." Ashlyn explained.

"Oh, right, he's your boyfriend," Cindy then said. "Well, wherever this boat takes us, maybe it'll be a new adventure."


Meanwhile, the others were still shocked over what had just happened.

"Pfft! Who needs her?" Kevin scoffed about Mike's absence. "We'd be better off without her."

Courtney looked down at her reflection. She looked a little upset, and she was soon feeling remorseful. "Maybe she's right..." she said in a soft tone.

"Yeah, well, I hope you're happy!" Eddy glared at Kevin. "You made Mike run off! Why do you have to be such a jerk all the time?!"

"You're one to talk," Kevin glared back. "Especially with that brother of yours!"

"Yeah!" Sarah added. "Who needs Mike Mazinsky anyway? What makes her so special anyway?"

"She's a good friend for one thing, and is always there whenever we need her and we were there for her too!" Eddy replied. "Mike is right, you guys ARE jerks! I'm not going to waste my time with you. Whoever wants to come help me find Mike can come and join me!"

Double D, Ed, June, and Dee Dee of course joined in.'

"You guys, I knew I could count on." Eddy said to them.

Courtney glanced over, rubbing her hand a bit shyly as she looked a little emotional right now after fighting with Jayna.

"I just wish I could tell where we were," Double D said. "We could be anywhere."

"I know it's not home." Og said as he sat with Lu.

Lightning, Scott, Jade, Chicken, and Katrina decided to join them as well as the Rookies along with Zan, Justin, and Justine.

"Hey, you guys, wait up," Chicken said. "We're comin' with too."

"Yeah, Joanna is like a sister to me." Justine added.

"Welcome to the search group." Eddy smirked to them.

"Yeah, well, go then! Who needs ya?!" Kevin glared.

Courtney looked between the others as she looked around.

"I have nothing to say." Robin glared at Kevin, Sarah, and Courtney.

"So, where are we gonna go then?" Eddy asked.

"Anywhere we can," Double D said. "Hopefully we find Mike or maybe someone who can help us? Who knows where we'll end up?"

"Pfft! Who needs 'em?" Sarah rolled her eyes.

"You got that right." Kevin agreed.

"You guys have no heart!" Courtney glared back as she soon rowed away.

"And where do you think you're going?" Kevin asked her.

"They're right, you guys are just so mean-spirited and selfish," Courtney told them. "Especially whenever they tell us someone died and you guys just laugh it off. Well, how would YOU feel if your parents died just like that and you couldn't do anything about it? Would you still laugh?"

"No...?" Kevin soon admitted.

"Not everybody is lucky to still have their parents, all you guys care about is yourselves!" Courtney told them. I'm quitting your gang, Kevin. For good!"

"...Fine by me then!" Kevin glared. "I never liked you anyway."

"Ask me if I care," Courtney said as she rowed away from Kevin and his friends. "Spoilers: I don't," she then sighed softly, looking very emotional and sympathetic like she did in the first season of Total Drama Island. "Jayna is right... I AM a spoiled brat... I'm sorry, guys, hey, wait for me!"

Eddy's search team looked at her rowing to them.


"Oh, great, Courtney's back." Jayna complained.

"Pretend you don't see her." Mike told the others.

The other soon turned away to act like they didn't notice Courtney as they waded along the water.

"Wait! I want to talk to you!" Courtney told them.

"Did you guys hear something?" Cindy asked.

"Nope." Ashlyn replied.

"Must've been the wiiiind." Cindy rolled her eyes.

"Guys, please!" Courtney told them. "I'm sorry!"

"Man, the weather is getting worse." Mike grumbled.

Courtney looked down with tears running down her face. "You guys are right, I AM a spoiled brat..." she said to them. "I deserve to get a major beating."

The others continued to look away from her.

"And I'm very sorry, Jayna," Courtney said. "I know you're really mad at me, especially whenever I try to take Justin from you, but I was just jealous. I mean, can you blame me? He's the most amazing boy out there, and I'm not just saying that because he's cute. He's very nice, smart, and funny."

"Justin's smart?" Ashlyn commented.

"Then what happened to being a nice girl?" Jayna repeated her question from earlier.

"Duncan happened..." Courtney sighed. "He cheated on me with Gwen during World Tour."

The others kept ignoring Courtney while Jayna listened.

"I'm sorry, I know I haven't been Miss Nice Girl since Total Drama's first season, but Duncan meant a lot to me back then, even if he bugged me a lot when we were first getting together." Courtney explained, sniffling a bit.

"Then... Why do you bother Justin then?" Jayna soon asked.

"Back on Total Drama Action, he had a crush on me." Courtney said.

"Yeah?" Jayna replied.

"It felt so amazing, you have no idea..." Courtney smiled. "It was like a magical time, because, you know, we all thought Justin was a bit of a narcissist on Total Drama Island, instead of Katie and Sadie overtime. Especially Katie, but I'm really sorry for hurting you guys, especially you, Jayna. I know you and Justin are a lot better together than me with him."

"Hmm... Courtney, no offense, but I need to think about this for a moment." Jayna said.

"I understand..." Courtney said. "I mean, I was a bit crude to you guys, and especially you since Justin chose you over me or any other girl. I'll never have a boyfriend."

The others still didn't say anything, but they soon listened as well.

"And I'm sorry if I hurt you guys too," Courtney continued. "Especially you, Ellody."

No one said anything yet, but they began to look at Courtney differently.

"I'll give you guys some time to think about it." Courtney told them.

"No offense, but that would be best." Jayna replied.

"But... Could I join you guys?" Courtney asked them.

"Fine, but we're going to keep an eye on you." Mike told the CIT.

"Where are we going?" Courtney asked.

"Wherever the water takes us, but I know this isn't the way to the Albonquetine Islands." Mike shrugged.


As the others were going wherever the water was taking them, the search group were still looking for their friends.

"Guys, I think we're lost." Jade said.

"We're not lost." Eddy replied.

"Then where are we?" Jade asked him.

"Well... I... Um... Don't know..." Eddy then admitted.

"Man, what is it with men and asking for directions?" Jade rolled her eyes.

"Yeah, well, who are we gonna ask for help, huh?" Eddy replied. "What do we do now, Jade? You're so smart all of the sudden like your cousin Dexter!"

"Calm down, Eddy." June told the scammer.

Og hummed quietly as he was thinking of an idea.

"You got something, kid?" Eddy asked Og.

"Maybe... I don't know..." Og said. "Maybe I can work on an invention that'll track down our location and find the others until we can get some help to bring us back home in the city with Mike. I mean... If she wants to come back home."

"Why wouldn't she come back home?" Eddy shrugged. "She loves us!"

"Well, think about it, Eddy," Double D advised. "People like Kevin and Sarah are always ruining everything for her."

"Am I the only one who thinks it's sick whenever they laugh whenever one of us mentions someone we loved and cared about died?" Jade asked.

"Yeah, I mean, even though she's a bad friend to Ginger and Macie, I did feel bad for Dodie when her Nana had died because of how close they were." Zoey commented.

"I want to suck out their blood and leave them bone dry, and then the vultures will eat their corpses." Yumi remarked.

Everyone looked at her took a few steps back.

"Uh... Sorry." Yumi said.

"Too dark." Ami said.

"Sorry, Ami, but you know what I mean." Yumi said.

Og soon went to working on something with what he had with Dexter, Maxwell, and Otto's help since they were the inventor types.

"I just hope that they will be all right." Justine hoped.

"Well, hopefully we can get this thing working with the tools we have now and we can track down where we are." Maxwell told her as he was inventing with his friends.

"It shouldn't take too long," Og told them. "I'm sure the others are fine with Mike on their side. She was pretty much born to be a leader like her father was in the very old days before Cartoon Network City, Nicktropolis, and Disneyville even existed."

"Yeah. It's no wonder that most people respect her." Robin added.

"She was always there for us." Julie added.

"Now it's our turn to save her." June decided.

"As soon as we can get this device together," Otto said. "We're lucky we have Og since he doesn't need machines for his inventions."

"It IS impressive how he does it all with bamboo and other natural resources." June smiled.

"Tell me about it," Maxwell chuckled. "I wish I could do that sometimes."

"That's genius!" Dexter beamed.

"Thank you." Og nodded.

"Can you hurry it up though?" Eddy asked.

"You can't rush genius." Mary told him.

"She's right, Eddy." Double D replied.

Eddy just grumbled to himself. The geniuses of the group continued to get to work as the others hoped that they could find Mike and the others very soon.
