Chris looks at the screen as it fades back in. "Welcome back to Total Drama Action! Let's introduce the rest of our cast, shall we?"
The camera moves back to the bus as a red haired boy with glasses and a blue shirt steps out. "All right! Finally on the show! This is going to be awesome!" Chris nods at him. "It sure is. Welcome aboard Harold." The boy smiles. "It's about time I was able to get on the show and show off my skills, gosh!" He then attempts to do some ninja moves that Lisa is far more impressed with than Chris.
The next contestant steps off the bus. He has on a yellow sweater over a white shirt. He has a long brown haircut which almost come to his eyes. He tries to lean on the bus door to look cool. Unfortunately the bus door moves causing him to fall flat on his face. Standing up, he wipes the dust off his sweater. Lisa giggles. "You okay Cody?" Cody does his best to recover. "I'm just fine beautiful." He points at her in a gun like motion and makes a clicking noise.
Chris laughs as he puts his hand on Cody's shoulder. "Glad to have you here Cody. But," He clenches his hand tightly on Cody's shoulder, causing him to wince, Chris still keeping his smile on his face as he continues to speak. "If you try flirting with Lisa again, getting kicked off the show will be the least of your problems. Got it?" Cody nods, extremely frightened. Chris lets go and his voice turns back to normal. "Great! Then welcome to the show!" Cody, wide eyed makes his way over to the other campers.
*Confessional*
Lisa: Ooh! (she puts her hands on her cheeks) A jealous Chris! (She takes her hands away and leans on the side of the wall in an attempted pose of sexiness) Mama like! (she then proceeds to slide off the wall and fall off screen as she says the next line loudly) OH COME ON! I can't even be sexy for 5 seconds?!
*End Confessional*
Lisa blushes with a goofy smile on her face seeing Chris stick up for her.
The next person to step out is a caucasian girl with shorts, a simple sweater with a t-shirt on underneath, and a pair of glasses with short black hair. Stepping out, Chris gestures to her. "Erika! Welcome! I take it the bus ride was all right." She merely looks at Chris and adjusts her glasses. "It was all right. I'm a tad disappointed there weren't any returning contestants. I would very much liked to have picked apart Izzy's brain." Chris raises an eyebrow. "...right. Creepy. over there Freud." She holds up a finger. "I'll have you know, the majority of Freud's work has been debunked and-" Chris cuts her off. "Hey that's fantastic Erika. I don't care. Over there." He points to the rest. Slightly ruffled, she walks over to the rest of the group.
The camera cuts over to the bus as a boy in red sweats jumps off the bus, holding a football. "WHOO! Finally made it to the show!" He spikes the ball, only for it to bounce and hit him in the face, causing him to fall over. Lisa and Chris make an "eww" face. Chris bends over the fallen contestant. "You okay there Tyler?" Tyler puts up a finger. "I'm okay, but why are there two of you?" Lisa bends down and picks him up. "Thanks" Tyler, says embarrased with his hand behind his head as he walks over to the others.
As the next person, Chris smiles deviously. He then looks at the audience. "Because we just heard ever so much about him, we decided to give this guy an invite to this season of Total Drama Island. Welcome to Christian's ex-boss, Jason." A man with a half tucked button up shirt steps off the bus. He's wearing a badge that says his union name. Overall his look is a mix between disheveled and uncaring. His hair is brown and spiked with a bit of it tipped white. He puts a cigarette in his mouth as he walks over to Chris. Chris furrows his brow as he pulls the cigarette out of his mouth. "uhuh Jason, no smoking here bro." Jason rolls his eyes as he puts his lighter away. "Fine. Is that loser Christian here?" Chris chuckles. "Oh, he's around here somewhere." Jason nods. "Good, I want to talk to that loser." Chris smiles. "We can arrange that later. In the meantime, head over to the rest of the group." Shrugging, he does so.
The next person to step off the bus is a thin caucasian girl wearing a pink tracksuit outfit with a red bow on the top of her head. She hops out out of the bus and walks over to Lisa and Chris. Chris smiles. "So, Staci, how was the bus?" Staci then begins to speak. "Well, it's interesting to be on a bus, because did you know that my great, great, grandfather invented buses? Before that everyone used really big cars." Chris sighs. "I'm sure they did Staci. Over there please." He gestures over to the rest of the contestants. Happily, she walks over. Lisa giggles as she turns to Chris. "Hee hee, I like her." Chris chuckles. "Yeah, you would."
The next person to step off the bus seems to be an athletic looking hispanic girl. She is dressed in a short sleeve olive crop top and dark red shorts. Her black hair is in a bob with the fringe bangs on the side. She hops out of the bus whilte Chris puts his arms behind his back. "Why, hello there April. How are we today?" She shoots a mildly annoyed glance at Chris. "You know, I totally thought we were going to the island. That's why I kind of...you know, brought survival stuff?" She gestures to her bags full of camping equipment. Chris laughs. "Well, who knows, maybe it'll help you in the challenges."
*Confessional*
April: Don't get me wrong, I'm glad I was selected to be on Total Drama, but seriously? He couldn't have told us that we weren't going to the island? I was looking forward to climbing some mountains! I swear, I think he picked me just to have someone be pissed off that we weren't going to the island.
*End Confessional*
*Confessional*
Chris: (Laying sideways he blows on his nails and rubs them against his chest) I totally did.
*End Confessional*
Chris looks to to the bus. "Now let's meet our last competitor!" A girl steps off the bus as she looks around in awe. She's wearing bright pink leggings with a colorful aqua shirt and a brown shirt on top with a few buttons. She has glasses and braces, her brown hair is tied up. "Wow! Thith ith tho cool!" She says wiht a bit of a lisp. Chris opens his arms in greeting. "Beth! Glad to see a smiling face!" Beth smiles widely at this. "Ith tho exciting to be here! I've been waiting to turn eighteen tho I could FINALLY audition!" Chris laughs. "Well, you're here. Go see the rest of the gang." She nods eagerly and walks over.
Chris makes a double head count and gets 17. "All right! And those are our 17 contestants! Welcome everyone to Total Drama -" He's interrupted though as a loud BAMF can be heard from the bus. He stops and looks over as some movement is seen beneath the bus. All the campers soon see it as well. The group falls silent as an arm sticks itself out from beneath the bus. Everyone gasps at this. A moment later a disheveled form begins to pull itself from under the bus. A long, black haired form wearing a torn black shirt and black jeans crawls along the ground towards them.
Shaun jumps into April's arms. "Ah! A zombie! I knew it!" April simply stands there in shock.
The figure slowly stands up as it reaches Chris and grabs onto his arms, turning her head up. Chris blanches as he seems an asian girl with yellow eyes staring back at him. "Finally...got you Chris." Chris shifts his eyes. "Uh...yeah. You got me. Can I help you?" Annoyed she leans on his shoulders. "Why haven't you picked me yet?!" She says suddenly with a burst of energy, extremely irritated.
At first shocked, Chris looks at her confused. "Pick you?" He puts a finger to his chin, until eventually something dawns on him as he snaps his fingers in revelation. "Oh! You're Homura!" Homura lets go and clenches her fists. "So you DO know me! I've only tried to apply for this stupid show THREE TIMES!"
Chris laughs at this. "Oh yeah, I guess you have." He shrugs. "Sorry Homura, just how it goes. Besides," He gestures to the campers. "We have our 17 contestants. We're full up this season." Homura's face falls as Chris feels a tug on his sleeve. He looks over to Lisa who gives him a sad look. Chris sighs. Suddenly, he snaps his fingers again. "Although..." He puts on a devious face as he sees Chef walking off the bus. He puts his hands behind his back. "Well, actually Homura, I can think of a way that you CAN be part of the show..."
Removing a large twig from her hair, Homura looks over at him suspiciously. "Really?" He nods. "Absolutely." He looks over to Chef. "Hey Chef! You've been complaining to me about how you wanted an assistant, right? Well here you go." He thumbs over at Homura.
Chef raises an eyebrow as he walks over to Homura. "So, little girl. You ready to work your butt off?" Homura looks up to Chef, wide eyed and confused. "Um..." "Good!" He doesn't let her finish her thought as he turns around and picks her up under his arm like a plank of wood and walks off with her.
After they leave, Chris clears his throat and begins to speak again. "Anyway, as I was saying, congrats to the 17 of you. You will be the contestants this season. However, only one of you will win the grand prize of $300,000. Who will it be? Well that will be decided this season on, Total. Drama. Action!
(Intro starts)
The music starts up, the cameras start popping out of hidden places such as the ground and different places around the studio
Dear mom and dad i'm doing fine, you guys are on my mind
The camera zooms through the studio, both Chris and Lisa drive up in carts, parking on opposite sides of each other. They open their arms welcoming the camera. The camera moves up a stunt ramp that leads up to the top and then the camera jumps into a pool of water.
You asked me what I wanted to be
In the pool of water, Harold is wearing a diver's suit looking around when a shark appears. Harold furrows his eyebrows and pulls out nunchuks only to hit his own air tank, causing it to puncture and shooting him up into the air out of the water as the shark looks on shocked.
Now I think the answer is plain to see
We pan up to out of the water where Harold flies by. On top of the water is Killian who swings by on a rope and lands on a pirate ship. He laughs heartily only to be hit with a rolled up t-shirt causing him to get knocked off the ship.
I wanna be famous
We cut to Brad who is laughing at this behind an automated t-shirt cannon. He immediately stops laughing as he looks over next to him to see Ella. He raises his eyebrow only for a bunch of tiny birds to land on him. He crosses his arms annoyed as Ella giggles.
The camera zooms through the two as we see Shawn running away from someone in a zomibe costume. The zoom continues to the next room.
I wanna live close to the sun
Beth is swinging on a lamppost in Gene Kelly's 'Singing in the Rain' outfit. She gets hit by lightning and is shown to be blackened and scorched. Erika looks at Beth and then down and takes some notes in her notebook.
Well pack your bags cause i've already won
Heather runs in from offscreen being chased by a man in a hockey mask and machete. After she runs offscreen, Jason takes off the mask and laughs. He receives a tap on the shoulder and looks behind to see a monster behind him. He freaks out and runs offscreen.
Everything to prove nothing in my way, I'll get there one day
Tyler and Neos are standing on top of two tall pillars holding gladiator batons. They give each other a friendly smirk before raising the batons and try to swing at each other. Unfortunately they simultaneously hit each other and comically fall off their pillars. Mizuki (Neos' plush) falls out of his pack and lands upright on the pillar.
Cause I wanna be famous
Cody is leaning against a wall, trying to flirt with Elena, who is wearing a large brimmed hat and carrying a parasol, only for Tyler to fall on top of Cody, eliciting a shocked look from Elena.
Na na na na na na na na na na
Staci is talking at Chef and Homura. Homura puts a dash of something in a pot they're cooking which causes a tentacle to pop out of the pot, grabbing Staci and launching her offscreen. Chef and Homura high five after this.
April is climbing a set made up to look like a mountain. She nearly reaches the top and smiles, only for Staci to come flying in from offscreen causing her to knock April off and them both to fall over the edge.
I wanna be, I wanna be, I wanna be famous
We zoom in through the lameozine to a bunch of cameras flashing. We continue and see Chris as he, in a spiffy suit, smiles and opens an envelope on a stage. A tray of golden Chris's appear on screen. The camera shifts left to show Lisa standing there wearing a shiny red dress holding the tray. The only problem is, she's wearing a super gaudy sweater over the top part of the dress. Chris raises an eyebrow inquisitively because of this.
The camera zooms out to reveal Noah on a couch reading a book. The contestants begin to whistle the tune. He puts the book down as a device is moving over him. It zooms out to reveal Dana scanning Noah with her spectrometer. He raises an eyebrow at this. It then zooms out once more to show the entire cast gathered around the couch. The sign above them says "Total Drama Action"
Contestants: Brad, Ella, Heather, Elena, Killian, Dana, Shawn, Neos, Noah, Harold, Cody, Erika, Tyler, Jason, Staci, April, Beth
Chef's Assistant: Homura
AN: Whew! Finally! Got our full cast and the intro! Man, it was HARD to pick a full cast, but I feel like this is a fantastic one to work with. Thank you everyone for your submissions! I have some great ideas for this season and I think it's going to be a blast! There's some great canons that just couldn't fit last season and some equally great OC's.
I feel like over the past two seasons with the addition of Lisa as co-host, I haven't had much development for Chef and I feel like Homura was the perfect character to help him with that. She didn't quite fit in the roster, but she sure as hell is going to have some fun scenes this season.
One thing that I think you might find weird if you pay attention to detail is that I said 'thin' when I was describing Staci. That wasn't a typo. I actually came across the idea for making Staci (from ROTI) thin after I saw a thin version of her drawn by the guy who did my commission of season 2's cast least season and fell in love with it. If you want to know what thin staci looks like, just type in (skinny staci miguelamshelo) into google. You'll see what i mean.
