Thank you to everybody who reviewed Chapter 3 of Total Drama: Back To The Basics. Every review really makes the world of difference for me, and I really am happy to hear the positive feedback you have for my writing!
That's all from me for now, now let's get on with the next chapter of Total Drama Back To The Basics.
Narrated by Chris
Last time on Total Drama Back To The Basics, things got a little chilly for the remaining twenty-three campers as we covered Camp Wawanakwa with snow. The teams engaged in a snowball fight, and then a totally dramatic ski baton relay.
Team Warriors bounced back from their previous loss by winning invincibility in the first round thanks to their captain Izzy's groovy moves. Some of the highlights of the challenge include Lindsay getting a snow facial courtesy of her own boyfriend Tyler, Owen taking out three members of Team Cody by sitting on them, and Justin's once-gorgeous face being ravished by hideous blue blisters.
In the second round, the three remaining teams embarked on a baton relay where they had to ski down the mountain. Highlight include Courtney, Duncan and Alejandro each being blown up by landmines, LeShawna simultaneously wiping out both herself and Tyler, and Heather's underhanded move by pushing Beth off the T-Bar.
In the end, it came down to Harold and Alejandro, and in an unpredictable move, Harold sent Alejandro flying and secured invincibility for his team. This, however, was ultimately the cause of Alejandro's elimination that night, also no thanks to Justin, who voted off Alejandro in exchange for immunity for the rest of the competition. Smart move, Justin, but of course, this lead to one ticked-off Heather.
For today's challenge, our twenty-two remaining campers are going to get a little taste of what it is like to be a star. Finally, they might be able to walk a mile in my shoes, they all did nothing to get what they are. My job is a high-demand, high-skilled one. Anyways, who will earn their star on the Walk of Fame, and who will go down in the industry? Find out on this star-studded instalment of Total Drama Back To The Basics!
(Theme Song)
Cabin Four – Justin, Harold, Geoff, Noah, Owen.
Justin, Harold and Geoff were all sound asleep in the cabin, when Noah and Owen barged back into their cabin.
"I don't know why they kicked us out of the Spa Hotel so early. I was really looking forward to that gourmet breakfast." Pouted Owen.
"Probably because it'll take them all day to clean up the mess you left them. I saw the buffet table, dude." Scoffed Noah. Harold, Justin and Geoff groaned.
"Mommy? But it's not a school day!" Mumbled Harold incoherently. Noah rolled his eyes. Justin stretched, and sat up in his bed. That was when the other guys noticed the graffiti left all over Justin's face, including a moustache, a pair of glasses, bushy eyebrows, a love heart on both cheeks, and the word 'traitor' etched on his forehead. Geoff and Harold gasped.
"What are you bozos gasping at?" Asked Justin nonchalantly.
"Dude, what happened to your fa—" Began Owen, before Noah slapped his hand over Owen's mouth.
"Let him figure it out on his own. Please? I ask for so little." Chuckled Noah. Owen nodded. Justin rolled his eyes at the four other guys and began towards the bathrooms.
"Dude, what was that?" Asked Harold, after Justin had left the cabin.
"I don't know, but my guess is that is Heather's revenge for Justin voting off her hubby. Brutal." Laughed Geoff.
Confessional:
Heather: My personal method of success, with a one-hundred percent success rate, is to kick your opponents where it hurts. And in Justin's case, that is his face. Have fun with your modelling contracts now, pretty boy!
Geoff: Dude, I know we promised Justin invincibility until the merge, and I like to stick to my word, but if it gets to the point where Bridgette, LeShawna and I have to turn on each-other, we might have to break our promise. No sweat though, it probably won't come to that. Right?
Chris had walked in front of the cabins, megaphone in hand, in order to wake up the contestants for breakfast.
"Good morning, campers! I hope you all slept well! Today's challenge is going to be starting in one hour, so breakfast is in fifteen minu—" Chris was interrupted by a scream louder than his megaphone, coming from the communal bathrooms. Justin burst out of the bathrooms, butt naked.
"Get it off! Get it off my face! Ahhhh!" Shrieked Justin, before he eventually tripped in some shrubbery behind the cabins. Katie and Sadie had looked out the back window to see what the commotion was about, and when they saw a naked Justin in the bushes, they shrieked even louder than he did, but when he turned around and revealed his face, they screamed in horror and shut the window.
Confessional:
Justin: /rubbing his face ferociously with soap and water/ Get this off of me! This ink has had time to set, and it's not coming off! Ahh! Someone, anyone, please, help me!
Sadie: Oh. My. Gosh. We saw Justin's butt! I don't know what happened to his face though. And I also don't think Katie was excited as I was. Maybe she's crushing on someone else? /ponders for a moment/ Nah, she would have told me! Right?
At the Mess Hall, Katie took a seat next to Noah, who was idly stirring at the paste that Chef Hatchet had given him.
"Mind if I sit here?" Asked Katie.
"Please, go ahead. I'm just upset that our promised gourmet breakfast was taken away from us." Sighed Noah.
"Me too. I totally could have used a nice coffee, not this black sludge that Chef Hatchet gives us—ooh! Something just brushed up against my leg!" Whimpered Katie. Just then, the table suddenly shook, and someone yelled "ow!" from under the table. Noah looked underneath the table and sighed.
"Izzy, what are you doing?" The crazy girl gulped.
"Oh, hey, Noah! I just, um, thought it might be fun to try and eat my breakfast under the table today! You know, for, like, ambience and stuff!" Chuckled Izzy nervously. Noah rolled his eyes.
"Sure, whatever floats your boat."
"It's nice to have company too, but Geoff and Bridgette aren't the chattiest people." Noted Izzy. Noah looked further, where Geoff and Bridgette were making out under the table too. He slapped his forehead.
"Will you lovebirds pull it together for one moment please!" Snapped LeShawna, pulling Geoff and Bridgette out from under the table.
"What's there to discuss, LeShawna?" Asked Bridgette.
"Where is Justin?" Asked LeShawna.
"He locked himself in our cabin and is refusing to come out. Bummer, right?" Said Geoff.
"Well, we need to discuss what happens the next time we lose."
"Easy, we vote off Heather." Said Bridgette.
"Yes, but what happens the time after that?" Asked LeShawna. Bridgette and Geoff looked down cautiously.
"I know we promised Justin invincibility, but if it means one of the three of us is going home, then we gotta break the promise." Said LeShawna.
"LeShawna, chill, why don't we cross that bridge when we come to it?" Commented Geoff. Just then, the door of the Mess Hall swung open, and in came Justin. Many of the contestants were given quite a shock by his face. LeShawna gasped. Gwen covered her eyes. Katie and Sadie shrieked. Beth fainted. DJ jumped into Eva's arms in fright, who rolled her eyes dismissively. Heather, on the other hand smirked evilly in delight of her plan. Justin attempted to best cover his face, and he sat down next to Owen, who promptly threw up in the seat next to him. Chris then walked into the hall.
"Ouch, Justin. I bet you're wishing you voted a little differently last time around." Commented Chris.
"Yeah, that's what you get for going against your word, and voting off my boyfriend!" Said Heather, standing up and pointing at Justin.
"Sit down, wig-hair. We all would have voted off your precious Alejandro at some point down the track anyway." Snapped LeShawna.
"Alright, enough with the banter, already. It's time for today's challenge!" Announced Chris.
Confessional:
Noah: Was it just me, or was Psycho von Crazy-Pants acting just a little kookier than usual at breakfast? /shrugs/ It's probably just me being a little cynical over missing out on my breakfast buffet.
Izzy: So, I have a whole day to look for the invincibility statue before somebody else finds it as well! And I don't have a second to lose! Now, I just have to make sure my team isn't onto me…Nah, I should be fine!
Heather: I promised Alejandro that I would bring down every single one of those dimwits, and that is exactly what I am going to do. Starting with Justin.
"Alright, campers, I am particularly excited for today's challenge, because you might finally be able to walk a mile in my shoes." Said Chris.
"What could we possibly be doing? Swimming a pool of hair gel? A cue-card reading contest?" Asked Gwen. Most of the contestants laughed, while Chris frowned.
"No, Gwen. Today, you guys get a glimpse of what it is like to be famous!" Announced Chris. Most of the contestants looked quite confused.
"But Chris, we already are famous!" Commented Lindsay.
"Our show was nominated for a Gemmie award!" Pointed out Beth.
"Please, you're all a bunch of celebrity wannabes. When you're a real star, there are trailers, red carpets, paparazzi, and all kinds of prep for all kinds of gigs. You guys just have to get up in the morning and do what I tell you. Really, I do all the hard work." Said Chris.
"Is that so? Maybe you should adjust your viewpoint before you have a real problem." Hissed LeShawna, rolling up her sleeves before Bridgette sat her back down.
"I'm good, LeShawna. Anyways, this is how today's challenge is going to work. There are going to be two rounds. Whoever wins the first round is going to win an advantage in the second round, which will decide who goes to the elimination ceremony tonight." Announced Chris.
"Get on with it." Snapped Eva.
"The first part of the challenge will be a model catwalk!" Announced Chris. This was met in delight by several of the female competitors, specifically Lindsay, Katie and Sadie.
"A model catwalk? Ooh, how challenging." Scoffed Noah.
"Trust me, Noah, it's a lot harder than it sounds. Beauty doesn't just happen overnight. Not that you would know." Commented Chris. He then cleared his throat.
"It's going to work like this. Each team is going to select their best-looking guy and girl as their two models, and after three hours of prep time, each pair will take the catwalk in an attempt to rack up points for their team. Ultimately, the pair that gets the most points will win an advantage for their team in the second part of the challenge." Said Chris.
"Eee! Sadie, I've, like always wanted to be on a model catwalk!" Cried Katie.
"Oh my gosh, Katie! Me too!" Squealed Sadie.
"Hey, wait, but we can't both be the models!" Pointed out Katie.
"Oh my gosh, you're right!" Gasped Sadie. They then began one of their trademark cat-fights.
"Settle down, girls! Each team now has five minutes to decide their most model-worthy guy and girl to participate in the first half of the challenge.
Team Warriors – Izzy, Owen, Noah, Katie, Sadie
"No. One-hundred-thousand-infinity times no." Snapped Noah.
"Come on, Noah! Take one for the team! It's either you or Big-O, and much as I love the guy, he isn't exactly catwalk-ready." Said Izzy, gesturing to Owen, who had just pulled a large piece of fluff from his belly button.
"You think I'm catwalk ready?" Snapped Noah.
"It might be easier to find a suit that fits." Noted Sadie. Katie grabbed Noah by the shoulders.
"Noah, listen to me! You are hot, okay? You are hot! And, like, sexy too! I could totally see you on the catwalk! But the first thing you're going to have to do is turn that frown upside down!" Said Katie. Noah gave a sarcastic grin.
"Close enough! Now what do you say?" Begged Katie. Noah sighed.
"I am only agreeing to this because it's my butt on the line if we lose." Katie and Sadie squealed and hugged him.
"But this only prompts the question, who is going to be our female model?" Asked Noah. Katie and Sadie looked at each other.
"Well…we don't want to risk our friendship by arguing over who should be the model, so we decided that it is only fair that Izzy should be the model." Said Sadie. Izzy clutched her hand to her chest.
"Aw, you guys, you are so sweet! Sweeter than marshmallows dipped in caramel and chocolate sauce!" Cooed Izzy.
"Did someone say marshmallows, caramel, and chocolate sauce all in the same sentence, because if so, I expect you to follow through." Said Owen.
"But seriously, I don't think I would be the best model in this case. I think that Katie should be Noah's partner." Said Izzy, inconspicuously winking at Katie.
"Me? Why?" Asked Katie, confused.
"Well, you guys do have some sort of chemistry. I think the judges will love it!" Said Izzy. Katie looked at Sadie for approval, who nodded happily.
"Okay, I'll do it!" Agreed Katie.
Confessional:
Katie: Is Izzy, like, still convinced that Noah and I are, like, crushing on each-other? Because we're not! I mean, I think we're not? But I don't know, like, maybe?
Izzy: By doing that, not only am I totally setting up Noah and Katie, or as I like to call them 'Notie', but I'm also allowing myself time to find the invincibility idol! Kill two birds with one stone, hey? I've actually done that before.
Team Lovebirds – LeShawna, Heather, Bridgette, Geoff, Justin
"Great! That's just great, Heather! We actually have a model on our team, but we can't use him because you decided to go all artistic on his face!" Snapped LeShawna, gesturing to Justin who was desperately trying to get the ink off his face.
"Whatever, as if I knew Chris would actually do a modelling challenge. Besides, maybe if you hadn't voted off Alejandro, we'd still have a model!" Retorted Heather.
"Guys, please, it doesn't matter that much! We still have Geoff, and he's good-looking enough to be a model!" Said Bridgette, kissing Geoff on the cheek.
"Not denying that, but Justin would have gotten us full points." Snapped LeShawna.
"Really? Thanks, LeShawna, I really needed to hear that, especially since—"
"Sit down, nobody is talkin' to you." Said LeShawna. Justin fell silent once more.
"Well, I suppose that I should be the female model. Unless we want Bridgette tripping down the runway or three-hundred pounds of bad attitude, I think it's in our best interest." Said Heather snootily.
"Ooh, I have just about had it with you and your schemin' ways, you little—" Snapped LeShawna before Geoff slapped his hand over her mouth, and did not let go no matter how much LeShawna licked him.
"So it's Geoff and I then. Glad that's settled." Smirked Heather smugly. LeShawna seethed.
Team Incredible – Tyler, Lindsay, Trent, DJ, Gwen, Eva
For Team Incredible, the decision as immediate and unanimous that their female model should be Lindsay. Upon hearing this, Lindsay squealed in delight, and hugged Eva and Gwen.
"You guys are the best! And don't worry, I think both of you are, like, totally hot enough to model as well! Just not as hot as me." Said Lindsay, with the purest of intentions, but causing Eva to raise an eyebrow. Gwen chuckled, amused.
"No worries, Lindsay. Have fun with it. But the question remains, who should be our guy model?" She asked, looking between Trent, DJ, and Tyler.
"Ooh! I think that Tyler should be our model! He is, like, so hot enough!" Said Lindsay, hugging her boyfriend.
"That would be a good idea, if we wanted him to trip down the runway. What about DJ? He's tall and dark." Said Eva.
"I'm not the most fashion-savvy person. I just don't think all this vanity and glamour is really my style. Sorry." Said DJ, rubbing the back of his head.
"That leaves you, Trent. What do you say?" Asked Gwen. Trent smiled.
"Sure, I'll do it. I've never modelled before, but there's a first time for everything." Agreed Trent.
"Alright, so we have Trent and Lindsay. We should be fine." Said Gwen.
Confessional:
Gwen: I think our team has made some pretty good choices. Lindsay is already the modelling type, and Trent is totally hot too! Gah! Did I just say that? Well, he is, but in a completely platonic way…Okay, I'm just going to stop talking now.
Lindsay: I just LOVE to model! People have been taking photos of me my entire life! Once, when I was twelve, I was at the beach in my brand-new bikini, when a guy came up to me and asked if he could take a photo of me to put in the newspaper! I bought, like, every newspaper for the next month, but I wasn't in any of them! Bummer, right?
Team Cody – Duncan, Courtney, Harold, Beth, Sierra, Cody
As per usual, Team Cody were involved in some pretty heavy disagreements over who should be participating in the challenge, primarily Duncan and Courtney.
"I don't care who says what, but I am not letting anyone put makeup on my face! I am not a model, do you hear me?" Yelled Duncan.
"Would you listen to me, for once?! It has to be you, otherwise it's either Harold or Cody!" Yelled Courtney.
"Hey! My Cody-kins would be an excellent model, I'll have you know!" Retaliated Sierra, clutching Cody tightly.
"Aw, thanks, Sierra. You'd be a good model too." Chuckled Cody nervously.
"Nope. No way. Too short and scrawny, we'd have to go to the kids department just to find a suit that fits." Said Courtney. Cody sighed.
"Fine, have a nice trip." Said Duncan, crossing his arms.
"Fine, let me put it this way. If you don't do this for us, then you have my personal guarantee that you will be the next one voted off." Said Courtney.
"Hah! As if." Scoffed Duncan, but when he turned around, Courtney, Beth, Sierra, Cody and Harold were all glaring at him. Duncan rubbed the back of his head.
"Okay, fine. I'll do it. But don't expect me to like it even a little bit." Snapped Duncan.
"Perfect. Now as for the female model, I nominate myself. Any objections? Good." Said Courtney, without giving Beth or Sierra a chance to protest.
"Alright, cast! You have all decided your models, and now I'll explain how this challenge is going to work. Each pair will come out, one by one, one person at a time. Chef, myself and special guest judge will give a score out of ten for each model. The pair with the highest score out of twenty is going to win an advantage for their team in the second part of the challenge." Said Chris.
"Who's the special guest judge, Chris? Is it a celebrity?" Asked Beth.
"Ooh! I bet you that it is a former competitor!" Guessed Sierra.
"And you are right, Sierra! Our special guest judge placed third on Total Drama: Pahkitew Island, she took out a cave full of robot bears with only her farts, she invented her own genre of music, a cross of rap and country known as 'craptry', and once ate a poisonous tarantula, please give a large, like her, welcome to…Sugar!" Announced Chris, gesturing to the door. Nothing happened.
"Sugar? That was your cue!" Called Chris. Just then, the contestants heard Chef Hatchet yelling from the kitchen.
"Get out of my kitchen, you big baby!" Yelled Chef, as he shoved an overweight girl with bushy blonde hair and blue eyes out of the kitchen. Sugar licked her lips, which were covered in food.
"Hello, Total Drama! Your biggest star has returned! Coooooo-ey!" Shouted Sugar triumphantly.
"'Biggest' being the operative word. We thought Sugar would be the most appropriate ex-contestant to return for this challenge, especially considering she's competed and won a number of beauty pageants before." Laughed Chris.
"Seriously? That thing has won a contest for being the most attractive? Remind me to never go where she lives." Said Noah.
"What did you just say about me, chicken neck? I've taken down hogs five times your size before, so watch your tongue around me!" Snapped Sugar. However, it was then that she noticed Owen. She gasped.
"My oh my, that is one good lookin' hot dog over there!" Gasped Sugar.
"Are you seriously talking about Owen?" Asked Tyler in disbelief. Sugar strolled up to Owen.
"Hi there, baby. I'm Sugar, three-time winner of Miss Omaha, 2003, 2005 and 2009. What's your talent? Being hotter than cow droppin's on a hot summer's day?" Cooed Sugar.
"Did you just compare me to cow droppings?" Asked Owen. Chris grabbed Sugar by the arms and dragged her over to the other competitors.
"So, Chef Hatchet, Sugar and I are going to be the judges for this fashion catwalk challenge. Let me introduce the models.
"Representing Team Warriors, we have Katie the Energetic, and Noah the Grumpy!" Announced Chris. Katie eagerly blew a kiss to the camera, while Noah rolled his eyes.
"Representing Team Lovebirds, we have Heather the Deceiver, and Geoff the Gullible!" Announced Chris. Heather simply filed her nails, while Geoff protested his title to Bridgette, who assured him he was not gullible, to which he easily believed.
"Representing Team Incredible, Lindsay the Foxy and Trent the Musician!" Lindsay and Trent both waved to the camera, and Lindsay went on to strike a number of poses.
"And last but not least, representing Team Cody, we have Courtney the Bossy, and Duncan the Unenthusiastic!" Laughed Chris. Courtney waved at the camera, but Duncan merely muttered 'get out of my face' and shoved the camera out of his way.
"Starting now, each team will have three hours to prepare their models to be the most attractive they can be. Clocks are ticking people, go!" Announced Chris.
"We seriously need three hours for this?" Groaned Noah, but Katie and Sadie gasped in horror.
"Oh my gosh, Katie! We only have three hours to do both of you! We have to get going, it took us, like, five hours to get ready for junior prom!" Cried Sadie, as she grabbed Katie and Noah by the arms, and dragged them out of the Mess Hall. Owen was about to follow, but Sugar grabbed his arm.
"Not so fast, honey. You're not leaving without a little Sugar!" And Sugar full-on kissed him on the lips.
"Your lips taste like bouillon cubes…" Noted Owen, until Izzy grabbed him by the arm and dragged him away.
"I'll miss you, Owen!" Sniffed Sugar.
Confessional:
Owen: Sugar's lips tasted really nice, but I'm just not that into her. She just isn't my type. Plus, she kind of looks like an overweight Lindsay. /crickets chirping/ What? She does. Kind of.
Izzy: I can't find the invincibility idol if I'm stuck in a trailer all day! So I have to create the perfect distraction, and Izzy's team of Super-Duper Ninja Samurai Warriors won't suspect a thing!
Team Warriors Trailer
The minute that Team Warriors had set foot in their trailer, Sadie shoved Katie and Noah into the two seats in front of the mirror and began to dig through the closet looking for outfits.
"Woah, slow down there, Sadie, you could sprain a muscle at that speed!" Noted Owen, who had to dodge a rather large wig flying his way.
"We don't have time, people! We need to start with wardrobe!" Cried Sadie.
"Why don't we start with their hair? Noah's needs a lot of work, haha!" Giggled Izzy and Noah glared at her.
"I think that maybe I'll leave, and, uh, go look for some of Chris' hair gel, so we can get that real smooth look to Noah's hair. Later!" Said Izzy, and she bolted out of the trailer.
"But Izzy, look, we have hair gel here already! Ooh, it's citrus-scented." Chuckled Owen, and Noah had to angrily slap the tube out of Owen's hands before he ate it. Just then, Sadie squealed in delight.
"I found it! The perfect suit! It's like, Noah's size and everything!" Cheered Sadie. She brought it to Noah, who raised an eyebrow.
"This? It's a little high-school prom, don't you think?" Asked Noah.
"Of course not! This is, like, so totally suave! You're gonna look like a real looker, Noah!" Said Sadie.
"Hey, I, er, don't have much of a fashion sense, but I think this might look really good on you, Katie!" Said Owen, as he held up a black dress he had picked up from the closet. Katie and Sadie gasped in delight.
"It's perfect! It's so totally your colour and everything!" Cried Sadie.
"I am so excited, we are going to be, like, the best looking couple out there! I mean, er, pair." Said Katie, rubbing the back of her head anxiously, while Sadie and Noah stared at her.
Confessional:
Noah: What really made me suspicious is where was Izzy during all of this? She claimed that she was leaving to go find hair gel, and returned an hour and a half later empty-handed. That girl is up to something, and I leave no stone unturned. I will find out what she is up to. Then again, this is Izzy we're talking about. It's probably something crazy and unrealistic, like trying to find track Bigfoot, or chase a squirrel who stole her earrings.
Team Lovebirds Trailer
Team Lovebirds had wasted no time getting onto makeup. LeShawna began to approach Heather with a makeup unit. Heather's eyes widened and she backed away.
"No, no, no. No way. I am not letting you come near me with a makeup brush. You will make me look like a clown on purpose!" Snapped Heather.
"Sit down, fool. As much as I'd love to maim you right about now, I'm not about to throw a challenge just for kicks, so sit down and let me make you up." Retorted LeShawna. Heather begrudgingly sat in the chair, as LeShawna began to do her makeup. Meanwhile, Bridgette was doing Geoff's makeup.
"Make sure you make me look manly, Bridge. I don't know how I'd show my face at parties after the show having worn makeup on live TV." Said Geoff.
"Don't worry, Geoff, I'll make you look dashing, and handsome. Oh, and a little bit of cologne never hurt." Said Bridgette. She grabbed a bottle of cologne, but accidently missed and sprayed Geoff right in the eyes. Geoff screamed in agony.
"What is going on over there?!" Yelled LeShawna.
"Geoff, I am so sorry!" Cried Bridgette. Geoff began to rub his eyes which were now bloodshot, and he began to run around in pain.
"Geoff! Watch out for the—" A metallic clang was heard as Geoff ran face first into a pole, and slid to the floor, knocked out.
"Great job, Bridgette! Now the only guy left on our team is knocked out! And we only have ninety minutes until we have to be backstage!" Snapped Heather.
"I think we might have to use Justin." Said LeShawna regretfully.
"What! No way! I am not stepping onto a model runway looking like this! That would be an insult to the whole institution of modelling!" Protested Justin.
"As much as I hate to agree with him, he is right. He can't step onto the stage like that. We'll get an instant zero. Party Boy over there will just have to shake it off." Said Heather.
"Mommy? But I don't wanna take piano lessons…" Moaned Geoff from the floor.
"I think he might have a concussion. Are you sure we shouldn't just send Justin out? The worst thing that could happen is that we lose the advantage." Said LeShawna.
"Which I am not going to let happen! Get him back in his chair, and do him up! We are wasting precious time, people!" Snapped Heather, and Bridgette attempted to prop Geoff in the chair to continue his makeup, who was still incoherently babbling about piano lessons.
Confessional:
Bridgette: /sighs/ I feel so bad about what I did to Geoff. I didn't mean to spray him in the eyes…I thought he was standing up! Oh man, I really haven't had the best start to this competition.
Geoff: /struggling to sit still/ Grrrraaaaahhhh…errrrr…mom? Is that you? I swear, I didn't put our dog in the microwave…
Team Incredible Trailer
Team Incredible had wasted no time in finding Lindsay a pretty red dress, which she promptly had squealed over, while DJ and Tyler had found Trent a snazzy tuxedo which fit nicely on his shoulders. However, when the time came for makeup, everybody was at a loss.
"I'm a dude, do you think I know how to do makeup? Why don't one of you chicks do it?" Asked Tyler.
"Because the only makeup I know how to do is dark and gothic and angsty. Unless our aim is to give the judges nightmares, I really don't think I'm the right person to typecast in this role." Said Gwen, looking at Eva.
"Why are you looking at me? I haven't worn makeup since my first and only date. I ended up hoofing the guy in the lemons because he told me I smelt like lotion." Said Eva. Gwen and Tyler both raised their eyebrows at this. However, DJ burst into the trailer with a makeup unit and brushes. Lindsay clapped her hands happily.
"Yay! DK saves the day!" She squealed.
"Sit still, Lindsay. I'm going to make you look striking but toned." Said DJ, as he began to do Lindsay's make up.
"How are you such an expert at this?" Asked Gwen, amused.
"I do my momma's church makeup, every Sunday. She says it's all in the contours." Said DJ. Eva stifled a laugh.
Team Cody Trailer
As for Team Cody, Courtney had decided on a subtle orange dress, and was now trying to sit still while Beth and Sierra did her makeup.
"Ow!" She yelped as Beth accidentally poked her with the mascara brush.
"Oops. Sorry." Responded Beth bitterly. As for the boys, Cody and Harold had found a nice suit that fit Duncan, who was less than thrilled with his task. Harold began to approach Duncan with a pair of tweezers.
"Woah, easy, Doris. What's with the tweezers?" Demanded Duncan.
"I'm just going to do a little work on your eyebrows." Said Harold, and he held Duncan's head, as he plucked one eyebrow hair from Duncan's face. Duncan yelped.
"Gah! Ow!" He complained.
"That didn't hurt, did it?" Asked Harold.
"Pfft, no." Scoffed Duncan, crossing his arms.
"Good, hold still." And with that, Duncan slapped the tweezers out of Harold's hand and they went flying across the room, and almost hit Beth in the face.
"Hey! Be careful with those!" Scolded Beth.
"Fine. We'll leave your eyebrows. But you do know that you have to take out all your piercings right? Oh, and that choker. We want to wow the judges, not give them nightmares. I mean, gosh, I just—" With that, Duncan shoved Harold into the closet and closed the doors, Harold protesting wildly.
"Hey! What on Earth was that?" Yelled Courtney.
"I'm done. I'm out. I am not just going to sit here while you turn me into some foo-foo little model. My piercings are staying exactly where they are." And Duncan stormed out of their trailer without another word.
"Great! Now what! We need another male model, and we only have one hour to do them up!" Cried Courtney. Harold stumbled out of the closet, falling flat on his face. Courtney turned away immediately.
"Well, there's only one other person we could use." Said Beth. Cody, on the other side of the room, noticed Courtney, Beth and Sierra advancing on him wickedly. He whimpered.
Confessional:
Courtney: Trust Duncan to bail on us during the challenge. He left us with no other option but to use that little shrimp, Cody. But it was either him or Harold, and trust me, no part of Harold is ready for a runway.
After the three hours were up, Chris, Chef Hatchet, Sugar and the rest of the non-modelling contestants gathered outside the runway, where everybody was cheering. Chris stepped onto the stage.
"Welcome to the first ever Total Drama Model Parade!" Announced Chris, and many of the competitors cheered.
"I'm your host, Chris MacLean, and these are my co-hosts, Chef Hatchet and Sugar!" Chef Hatchet grimaced at the camera while Sugar blew a kiss.
"Now, we are going to see eight hopefuls try and rack up as many points as they can in order to win an advantage for their team in the next round. I hope they bring their A-game, because what happens here is totally important for the next part." Announced Chris.
"Anyways, let's get on with it! First up, from Team Warriors, we have…Katie!" Cheered Chris. All of the contestants cheered wildly, especially Sadie. Izzy slipped into the auditorium, and took a seat next to Owen silently.
"Hey Izzy, where have you been?" Asked Owen.
"Uh, I've been here the whole time. Jeez, maybe you're the one who's crazy." Laughed Izzy. From backstage, Katie was visibly nervous.
"What if I, like, fall over? I'll never be able to live it down." Fretted Katie. Noah put his hands on Katie's shoulders.
"You'll be fine, you're hotter than most of these girls anyway." He said. Lindsay, Heather and Courtney raised their eyebrows to this statement.
"Awww, thanks Noah, that really means a—"
"Go!" Whispered Noah, as he shoved her towards the stage. Katie walked onto the catwalk in her shoulder-less black dress with a slit up the side of her left leg. Her hair was no longer pulled into two pigtails, instead it draped gracefully around her shoulders. First glance, Katie looked like almost a completely different person. The crowd went wild, and cheered madly for Katie. Sadie wiped a tear from her eye.
"She looks so beautiful!" She cooed to Owen and Izzy, who agreed. Katie turned around, and began to walk back up the runway, and she waved to the audience as she went back into the stage. Everybody cheered.
"Well done, you were incredible! Er, I mean, you were good." Said Noah, but he was caught by surprise when Katie wrapped him in a hug, which he awkwardly returned.
"Alright, now you go get 'em, you bookworm!" Cheered Katie. Noah smirked.
"And now, following his dazzling partner, please give a warm welcome to…Noah!" Announced Chris. As Noah walked up the stage in his navy blue suit and maroon tie, he did so with an elegance that caught many of the campers by surprise. His hair was gelled back, and like his partner, he looked like a completely different person.
"That's my buddy! Woo-hoo! Shake your groove thang!" Cheered Owen, as Noah returned backstage.
Chris, Chef Hatchet and Sugar were thoroughly impressed by the display.
"I have to say, I almost didn't recognise Katie, one reason because of her wardrobe, but the second because Sadie wasn't by her side. Nonetheless, we thought Katie looked pretty darned good, so we have opted to give her a nine out of ten." Said Chris. The crowd went wild, with Sadie, Owen and Izzy cheering the loudest of all.
"As for Noah, I'm going to be honest, I thought that Team Warriors' chances were in the toilet when I heard that Noah would be modelling for the team. Needless to say, I have been proven wrong. Noah, who knew you had a little girl in you after all?" Said Chris. Sugar snatched the microphone from Chris.
"Eh-hem! I do have an objection. I think that Team Warrior should have used Owen instead, he is clearly much hotter than Chicken Neck. I think that this warrants a penalty of two points." Said Sugar, and many contestants began to boo Sugar, including Owen.
"Well, you heard the lady. Noah, your final score is a seven out of ten. Still a solid score, and this means that Team Warriors have racked up a total of sixteen out of twenty for the first part of the challenge! The bar has been raised pretty high for the other teams, so let's see how they step up!"
Confessional:
Katie: Woo-hoo! That was, like, so much fun. It does suck that we lost two points, but hey, I think that we can still beat the other teams! Right? Plus, now that I've seen him out of that sweater vest, Noah actually is pretty hot!
Noah: I think I'm beginning to warm up to Katie. Okay, I admit it, I'm very warm to her. She and I made a great team. I mean…uh, yeah, she's cool. Geez, what is happening to me?
"So after a cool sixteen out of twenty for Team Warriors, let see how Team Lovebirds follows up! First up for Team Lovebirds, please give a warm welcome for the one and only…Heather!" Announced Chris. Heather confidently stepped onto the stage. She was wearing a dark red dress and lipstick. She walked with a nonchalance that most of the contestants thought only typical of Heather.
She paused for a brief moment, blew a kiss toward the crowd, turned around and walked back up the stage. The crowd was silent.
"Well…that was awkward. Despite her lack of support, Heather did look bangin'. Let's see if her partner Geoff can rack up! Everybody, give a warm welcome for Geoff!" Announced Chris, and the applause once again started. However, people began to look concerned as Geoff stumbled onto the stage.
"Oh no." Whispered Bridgette. Throughout the entire endeavour, Geoff struggled to walk in a straight line.
"You didn't put any booze in the food this morning, did you?" Asked Chris. Chef Hatchet shook his head.
"What is the matter with him?" Asked Gwen.
"I-I'm okay! I think! Maybe!" Cried Geoff, but just as he said this, he stumbled to the floor, and began to vomit all over the stage. Most of the contestants shrieked, as Geoff vomited all over Sugar, who began to screech. Chris looked thoroughly unimpressed as Geoff lay shivering on the stage.
Confessional:
Bridgette: /sigh/ I guess that was my fault. But hey, now Geoff and I have both puked on a stage on international television. Maybe that's why we're meant to be?
"Clean-up! Please! This puke really stinks! Sheesh, Geoff, you just couldn't keep it down, could you?" Groaned Chris.
"So, in conclusion, we decided that Heather looked totally model-esque and we the judges have opted to give her a nine out of ten." Said Chris, and LeShawna, Bridgette and Justin cheered.
"However, Geoff's poor and shocking performance won his team zero points, meaning that Team Lovebirds has racked up only nine out of twenty points, which means that Team Warriors are still in the lead!" And Izzy, Owen and Sadie cheered. Bridgette sighed.
"I'm starting to think we should have sent Justin out." Sighed Bridgette.
"Be lucky you got zero, I wanted to give y'all negative infinity points!" Roared Sugar.
"Anyways, lets get on to the next team! Let's see if Team Incredible can knock Team Warriors off their throne! For the first member, the fantastic, the fabulous, the foxy…Lindsay!" Announced Chris, and Lindsay stepped onto the stage in her pretty red dress. The blonde was dressed up to perfection, and everybody was mesmerised by the display.
"Woo-hoo! That's my girl!" Cheered Tyler. Lindsay was so mesmerising that the janitor who was meant to be cleaning up Geoff's vomit could do nothing but stare at Lindsay. As a result, Lindsay slipped in Geoff's vomit.
"Wah!" Shrieked Lindsay as she toppled backwards and landed on her back in Geoff's vomit. Most of the contestants groaned at what had just happened and DJ even stepped outside to vomit himself. Duncan, on the other hand, was howling in laughter, until Sierra elbowed him.
"Well. That was pretty gross." Commented Chris, as Chef Hatchet tried to keep his own vomit down. Lindsay and the stage were quickly hosed down, and Lindsay dejectedly walked backstage.
"Let's see if Lindsay's partner can salvage any dignity that Team Incredible has left, let's give it up for Trent!" Announced Chris. All the contestants began to cheer, Gwen louder than everybody.
Trent walked onto the stage in a snazzy suit, and everybody cheered because he looked so handsome.
"Woo-hoo! You go, Trent! Strut your stuff!" Cheered Gwen, over the crowd. Trent winked at her from the stage. Gwen noticed Eva smirking at her.
"What?" Asked Gwen.
"You so like him." Chuckled Eva. Gwen laughed.
"I think you've been watching too many re-runs of Season One and Two. Besides, Trent and I didn't work out, and now we're moving on. We're just friends." Said Gwen.
"Friends like you were in Season One, before Heather threw a wench between you two?" Commented Eva. Gwen opened her mouth to retaliate, but could not come up with a comeback.
"I'm not into all that deep, girly stuff. But I've seen guys killing themselves at the gym to try and impress me. One guy tried to lift a weight so heavy that he broke his coccyx. And all I'm saying is that Trent looks like he would break a coccyx for you." Chuckled Eva.
"Well, I think you're wrong. Trent wouldn't break a coccyx for me, nor any other bone in his body." Snapped Gwen. Eva shrugged, as they watched the last of Trent's performance, as he walked backstage.
"Well, at least Trent salvaged some dignity for Team Incredible. To start with, Lindsay looked drop-dead hot on that catwalk and would have scored a perfect ten, but the illusion was kind of ruined when she slipped in Geoff's digestive fluids. As a result, we are giving her a three. Trust me, this is definitely a pity three." Said Chris. Team Incredible groaned.
"As for Trent, he looked pretty suave, so as a result, we are giving him a seven out of ten. This leaves Team Incredible with a final score of ten out of twenty. Hey, it's higher than Team Lovebirds, but still miles behind Team Warriors." Said Chris. Gwen, Tyler, Eva and DJ sighed, while Izzy, Owen and Sadie continued to cheer.
Confessional:
Gwen: Does Eva seriously think Trent and I are getting back together? No way. Trent and I have already proven that we don't work together. Besides, what does Eva know? She's been in one season, and competed in, like, three episodes. /pauses briefly/ please don't tell her I said that.
Lindsay: I can't believe I slipped in puke! This is, like, the most embarrassing thing that has ever happened to me, like, more embarrassing than the time I peed on camera, or the time I got flushed down that huge toilet, or that time I accidentally forgot who my boyfriend was for a few weeks…
"We have one more team to go, people! Team Cody gets the last crack at throwing Team Warriors off their throne. Let's see if they can top them, people! First up, we have our resident C.I.T, Courtney!" Announced Chris. Courtney stepped out from the stage in an orange dress, and confidently walked down the catwalk. Many of the contestants cheered, as Courtney blew a kiss to the judges.
"Man, she's good! I hope Cody doesn't screw it up. We could have a chance at winning!" Said Harold. Sierra elbowed Harold.
"Don't talk smack about my Cody! He'll get us a perfect ten, I'm sure of it." Said Sierra. Courtney walked back to the end of the catwalk.
"Impressive, Courtney! Now, let's give it up for the last model of the challenge, Duncan!" Announced Chris. Everybody gasped.
"Did no-one tell him that we changed models?" Asked Beth in horror.
"Don't look at me, it was Doris' job!" Protested Duncan.
"Was not!" Protested Harold. However, just then, Cody meekly stepped out from behind the stage, which was met with surprise by many of the competitors.
"Woo-hoo! That's my Cody-kins!" Shrieked Sierra, and as Cody walked out, several contestants began to laugh. The suit, originally intended for Duncan, was much too large on the scrawny nerd, and he looked rather out of place. Courtney slapped her forehead from backstage.
"Well, that was interesting. Duncan, you seem to have shrunk." Laughed Chris. Duncan flipped Chris off from the other side of the auditorium.
"Anyways, so, here are the end results. Courtney was pretty much perfect, so we're giving you an eight out of ten." Said Chris. Duncan, Beth, Sierra and Harold cheered.
"However, then there was Cody. Big penalty for having a different model come out, even bigger penalty that he didn't even look that good, and even bigger penalty that you humiliated me on international television! As such, we can only give Cody a three, leaving Team Cody with eleven out of twenty. This means that Team Warriors wins the first part of the challenge!" Announced Chris. Izzy, Owen and Sadie cheered from their seats, while Katie and Noah high-fived from back-stage.
Confessional:
Sadie: Yippeeee! We won the first part of the challenge! Team Warriors is, like, so on the way to being the best team ever! Although, I am kind of upset that I didn't get to model…but now my eyes are opened to Katie and Noah. Those two are SO crushing on each other! Eeeeee!
LeShawna: So my team came last in the first part of the challenge. We are on an express train to Loserville, and it is LeShawna's job to turn that train around. Hey, I am the Team Captain after all.
Beth: I have to admit, Duncan hasn't been the best Team Captain. He's just been so angry and lazy! I think that maybe if we go to elimination, we might need to vote him off. /ponders this/ But then, Courtney would claim Team Captain, and then I'm sure that wouldn't be much better.
After all the models had changed back into their regular clothes, all the campers, minus Geoff, who was forced to sit out from the rest of the challenge on account of his concussion, gathered in the Mess Hall. Chris addressed the campers.
"Team Warriors, well done for your valiant efforts in the first part of the challenge. However, all four teams are nowhere near done yet. But you have won an advantage in the second part of the challenge, which I will explain now." Said Chris.
"For this round of the challenge, each team will elect one of their members as their star." Said Chris. This was met with a squeal from Lindsay.
"Oh my gosh, can I pretty please be the star, pretty please, with a cherry on top?" Begged Lindsay.
"Lindsay, shush! I'm still explaining!" Snapped Chris. Lindsay went quiet.
"Each star will elect two other members of their team to be their bodyguards. Everybody else will be the paparazzi! The aim of the paparazzi is to take as many photos of the stars on the opposing teams as possible, while the bodyguards try and block the stars as best they can." Said Chris.
"That's it? This doesn't seem too hard." Said Gwen.
"Chris! What is our advantage?" Asked Sadie.
"Ah, right, Team Warriors. Your advantage is, an extra body guard to guard your star!" Announced Chris.
"But there are only five of us on the team, one star, three bodyguards, that only leaves one person with a camera. I think that puts us at more of a disadvantage." Noted Noah.
"No, Noah. Your extra bodyguard will be…Sugar!" Announced Chris, and Sugar cheered.
"I stand corrected." Sighed Noah.
"Wait, is Sugar joining the game?" Asked Owen, almost fearfully as Sugar flirtatiously waltzed up to him.
"No, Owen, she is not. She is only helping out for this challenge, and trust me, she will be very much gone by tomorrow." Said Owen.
"Better make the time we have together count." Whispered Sugar in Owen's ear. Owen whimpered.
"Anyways, let's get on with choosing your stars. Oh, and I forgot to mention, if you were a model in the first round, then you can't be the star for your team." Announced Chris.
"Nooooooooo!" Shrieked Lindsay.
Team Warriors
"Okay, so Katie and I can't be the star, which means that Owen, Izzy or Sadie, one of you guys has to be the star. Logic is telling me that it should be Izzy." Said Noah. Izzy gulped.
"Are you sure? I think Big-O would be a great star for our team." Said Izzy, clutching Owen's arm.
"Home wrecker." Muttered Sugar under her breath.
"Think about it this way, Crazy Girl. If Owen was our star, it wouldn't be that hard to get a photo of him with only you and Sadie guarding him. You're the smallest, so it should be you." Said Noah. Izzy sighed.
"Fine, I'll be the star. And I'll take Owen, Sadie and Sugar as my bodyguards, which means that Noah, Katie, you guys are our paparazzi." Said Izzy. Katie and Noah nodded.
Confessional:
Noah: Whatever Izzy is up to, she probably won't be able to do it without Owen, Sadie or Sugar noticing. Then again, all three of them aren't notorious for their attention spans, so maybe not.
Team Lovebirds
"This is so unfair. With Geoff's concussion, we're down a player. We should have gotten an extra bodyguard! Nice work, Bridgette!" Scoffed Heather.
"Hey, hey, hey, there is no need to be attacking poor Bridgette." Snapped LeShawna.
"Whatever. If you think I'm spending another second around you lunatics, you are wrong. I'll be the paparazzi." Snapped Heather, snatching a camera out of Justin's hands, and stomping out of the Mess Hall.
"That leaves us three. Bridgette, do you want to be the star?" Asked LeShawna. Bridgette nodded.
Team Incredible
Tyler was comforting Lindsay over the fact that she wasn't allowed to be the star. As usual, the team was at a loss on where to begin.
"Guys, I have an idea. Lindsay and I can't be the star, so if Gwen is the star, and Eva and DJ are her bodyguards, then there's no way anybody will get any photos of Gwen!" Said Trent. Eva looked at Gwen suggestively, and Gwen glared at her.
"That means Lindsay, Tyler and I will be the paparazzi." Said Trent.
"Me? The paparazzi? I'm meant to be in front of the camera, not behind it!" Whined Lindsay.
Team Cody
"I think Cody should be our star. He's already my star." Cooed Sierra, gripping Cody tightly. Cody winced.
"No, guys. The obvious choice is Duncan. You let us down in the first challenge, so I think it's only fair. Otherwise we'll vote you off. Who else agrees?" Said Courtney, and she, Harold, Sierra, Beth and Cody all raised their handed. Duncan scoffed.
"Okay, fine I'll be your little star. But who are my bodyguards?"
"I'll be a bodyguard so I can keep an eye on you. Also, Beth." Said Courtney.
Confessional:
Duncan: Since when is Courtney getting chummy with the rest of the team? She told me that we had an alliance, and now she's turning on me? Frankly, I don't know why I'm surprised to be honest. But don't think I'm going down without a fight, sister.
The challenge had since begun, and all of the teams dispersed in their groups of paparazzi, stars, bodyguards and otherwise. The paparazzi were Noah, Katie, Heather, Trent, Lindsay, Tyler, Cody, Harold and Sierra.
Noah and Katie were making their way through the bushes hastily, trying to find any of the other teams.
"Wow, it's still so cold. Some of the snow from the last challenge still hasn't melted." Shivered Katie.
"Maybe you should consider wearing something warmer then." Said Noah bitterly, then mentally cursing himself for saying this to Katie. However, Katie didn't seem to mind.
"So, what's your deal? Why are you so bitter towards people all the time?" Asked Katie innocently.
"You could blame it on my eight older siblings. You could also blame it on the lack of affection I receive from my parents. Really, anybody who shares my blood is at fault." Said Noah. Just then, Katie slipped over, but Noah caught her wrist.
"Careful. Clear ice. Leftover snow which melted from the last challenge, then froze again." Said Noah, bringing Katie back to her feet.
"Wow, you're so smart." Gushed Katie. Noah gave her somewhat of a smile, and the two began to lean in ever so slightly, until they heard some voices nearby.
"Listen! I hear voices!" Whispered Katie.
"I bet you it's LeShawna. No other voice could carry that far." Whispered Noah, and they began to silently creep towards the direction of the voices. Surely enough, it was LeShawna. Justin and Bridgette.
"I'm tellin' y'all, it is all Heather's fault that we are in this mess! Geoff's little accident wouldn't have happened if Justin was on the stage. But no, she made sure that couldn't happen." Seethed LeShawna.
"LeShawna, please calm down. Anybody could hear us and attack." Said Bridgette frantically.
"Right you are." Smirked Noah, as he and Katie slipped out of the bushes, and began to prepare their cameras.
"Don't worry, ladies, I've got this!" Announced Justin, and he ripped off his shirt and approached Katie, who was too distracted by his face, and shrieked.
"Oh, enough of this!" Stormed LeShawna, and she approached Noah and tackled him to the ground. Noah groaned. Meanwhile, Justin was actively blocking Katie from taking any photos of Bridgette.
"Noah! I think we have to flee!" Cried Katie.
"Good idea!" Growled LeShawna, and she let Noah go, and the two fled away. LeShawna and Justin high-fived, while Bridgette was shocked at the act of violence LeShawna had just displayed.
Confessional:
Noah: Katie and I got two photos of Bridgette before I was squashed by a big bag of attitude. I suppose that's a start, but we have to lift our game if we don't want to be on the chopping block tonight, and not let any more disfigured male models get in our way.
LeShawna: /waving her hand dismissively/ That was nothing personal against Noah, I was just ventin' my frustration towards Heather. You'd think after having her head shaved on national television, having a tooth slapped out of her mouth and losing a million dollars in a volcano, she'd have learnt to shut her mouth. I suppose some people never change.
Izzy: My plans are seriously going south, how am I meant to find that hidden immunity idol with Owen, Sadie and Fat Lindsay breathing down my neck all the time? Curses!
Meanwhile, at Team Warriors' base, Sugar was continuing to shamelessly flirt with Owen.
"So, here's something you may not know about me. I'm super flexible. My legs can bend at almost a forty degree angle." Purred Sugar affectionately.
"Is that so?" Stammered Owen nervously.
"For sure, grease pig. Wanna run over to the communal bathrooms and I can show y—"
"Okay! How are we doing, guys?" Interrupted Owen, turning to Sadie and Izzy.
"I'm, um, not quite sure what's going on. Izzy might be having some sort of an episode?" Stuttered Sadie, gesturing to Izzy, who had her bead buried in the hollow of a tree.
"Izzy! What are you doing? Oh! Are you trying to hide? Great idea! Then no-one can take any photos of you!" and Owen proceeded to shove Izzy's body all the way into the hollow. Sadie shrieked.
"Can she breath down there?" Shrieked Sadie.
"She'll be fine, trees create oxygen, remember? While you're at it, try shovin' your chunky butt down the hole too so my man and I can have some privacy." Purred Sugar flirtatiously. Owen almost immediately rushed over to the hollow and pulled Izzy out, who glared at Owen ferociously.
However, little did the foursome know, that they were being watched from the bushes.
"Eee! This brings back memories. After Season Three, I used to go to Cody's house and watch him from the bushes." Squealed Sierra.
"That's why I felt like I was being watched!" Cried Cody, before Harold slapped a hand over his mouth.
"Quiet! If they hear us, we're done for. Now, they have too many body guards for us to get past, so we need a distraction. That's why I have a plan." Whispered Harold.
Confessional:
Sierra: Eeee! This is so exciting! We have a new Total Drama couple! Hmm...what would be a good couple name for Owen and Sugar? Showen? Owugar? Ooh! I'll make a poll on my blog, and see what the fans think! /pulls out her smart phone/ I've already been keeping track of all the Total Drama Couples since the beginning of the show! Oh, and I better add Noah and Katie to the list. I've been getting some serious vibes from them too.
The foursome were still in the clearing. Izzy had just punished Owen for stuffing her in the tree by biting his arm. Sugar was seething jealously. However, they were interrupted by a raspy voice.
"Hey, you guys! Over here!" Called Harold, grabbing the attention of Sugar.
"It's that skinny weirdo! Let's kill him!" Screeched Sugar, causing Owen and Sadie to look at Sugar in fear. With a battle cry, Sugar began to charge at Harold and quickly pinned him straight to the ground.
However, Sadie and Owen were alerted to a flash from behind them. Both of them gasped.
"It's Cody and Sierra! Don't let them get away!" Cried Sadie. Owen charged at the two from behind, and pinned them to the ground. Cody wheezed, as being stuck underneath Owen and Sierra wasn't very comfortable for him.
"Can't…breathe…oh…" Cried Cody, as he began to lose consciousness.
"Get off of us! My baby can't breathe!" Shrieked Sierra.
"Oh, crap! I am so, so sorry! Cody! Are you okay!" Cried Owen, climbing off of Sierra. Sierra shook Cody's shoulder's viciously. However, Cody quickly opened his eyes, reached out for his camera, and snapped a photo of Izzy before anyone realised what he was up to.
"Run!" Cried Cody, and he and Sierra quickly fled.
"Come on, Harold!" Cried Sierra.
"Right behind you!" Called Harold, and he struggled to get out of Sugar's grasp, but failed dramatically.
"Do you think you could let me go now?" Wheezed Harold. Sugar shrugged.
"Look, a big jug of Juggy Chunks!" Called Harold. Sugar was on her feet within seconds, and Harold quickly fled the scene.
Confessional:
Harold: I like to think of myself as a natural leader. The kind of person who would sacrifice himself so his friends can go on, or to save a pretty girl. I took a test online which told me so.
Meanwhile, Team Incredible was having some luck. The challenge had been going on for nearly an hour, and they hadn't been approached by one team yet.
"Yes! Spa Hotel, here we come. Get ready to be moisturized, alligator elbows." Chuckled DJ triumphantly.
"Save the celebrations for when we win. We've still got a while to go, and who knows who could be lurking out there, ready to pounce at any—" Eva was promptly interrupted by a flash coming from nearby, followed by an abrupt curse.
"Why don't these freaking cameras turn off the flash?" Snapped a female voice from up in the tree.
"Hey, who's there?" Yelled Gwen.
"Yeah, show yourself, so we can bash you up!" Roared Eva, which prompted concerned stares from Gwen and DJ. Silence occurred.
"Fine, we'll do this the hard way." And Eva walked up to the tree, and began to shake it vigorously. The voice inside the tree shrieked, while Gwen and DJ looked on in concern.
"Wow, I sure I hope Eva doesn't hurt whoever is up there." Stammered DJ nervously. Just then, Heather landed with a thump on the ground.
"You spoke too soon." Chuckled Gwen. Heather, once she had found her bearings, found herself face to face with a snarling Eva. Heather shrieked, picked herself up and fled the scene.
"Yeah, you better run, you little witch!" Shouted Eva, waving her fists in Heather's direction.
Confessional:
Heather: Pshaw. For the record, I was SO not afraid of that she-male. I was just caught by surprise by her hideous face. That girl could really use some foundation. /Eva growls from outside and Heather shrieks/
Eva: After that little witch was the reason behind my elimination in Season One, I would gladly take any opportunity to see her go down. I can hold a grudge. I'm still holding a grudge against my cousin for stealing my dumbbells when we were four! He still has the scar on his forehead!
"Attention, campers! So far, I am very disappointed by the lack of action taking place. It has been over an hour, and only four photos have been taken." Announced Chris from the loudspeaker.
"Four photos that better belong to our team." Seethed Courtney furiously. Just then, Sierra, Cody and Harold arrived in the clearing, all three of them looking a little worse for wear.
"What happened? You guys look awful!" Gasped Beth.
"We had a little run-in with Team Warriors. They're a lot more physical than they look." Said Harold.
"Please tell me you at least got a few photos of their star?" Cried Courtney.
"We got two photos of Izzy." Said Cody. Courtney groaned and threw her hands up in the air.
"Only two?! That isn't going to cut it! Why can't you people do anything right? I can't believe I'm stuck on a team of complete idiots…again!" Cried Courtney. All of the team stared at her, including Duncan.
"Uh…I mean, good job, guys." Chuckled Courtney nervously. Beth pushed Courtney aside, and approached the three members of the team.
"Guys, two photos is a good start, but we need more to make sure that we don't go to the elimination tonight! All three of you are smart in your own way. If you put your heads together, I'm sure that you can figure a way out of it!" Said Beth encouragingly. Cody turned to Sierra.
"Any ideas?" Asked Cody. Sierra tapped her finger to her forehead.
"I know everything about everyone on this show. Everybody has a weakness, we just need to exploit it!" Said Sierra.
"What do you have in mind?" Asked Harold, and Sierra began to whisper to the two. Beth smiled, while Courtney looked on in shock. However, they were alerted by Duncan yelling nearby.
"Incoming!" Yelled Duncan. Beth and Courtney gasped, and sprung into action. However, it was too late. Trent, Tyler and Lindsay had snuck into the area and were taking photos of Duncan.
"Get out of here, you dimwits!" Cried Courtney, shoving Lindsay and Tyler onto the ground, the couple landing in a heap. Trent snapped one more photo before the three began to clear out.
Confessional:
Cody: I have to say, Beth's method of positive reinforcement really is a lot more effective than Courtney's blunt beat-us-up-with-words approach. I think that if Duncan were to go home, Beth would be a good team captain.
Beth: I just did exactly what I thought Courtney wouldn't do! Courtney's all about the win, and not about team-work.
Courtney: Okay, it's a little creepy how Sierra knows everything about everyone. Okay, a lot creepy. This makes her a threat, and that means that she has to go, as soon as possible.
As the challenge progressed, Noah and Katie attempted to get a photo of Gwen, but Katie was sent shrieking when Eva began to advance on her, with Noah in hot pursuit. Cody, Sierra and Harold also crossed paths with Bridgette, LeShawna and Justin, but Cody was scared away by Justin's deformed face and was followed by Sierra, leaving Harold to (unsuccessfully) face the three on his own.
"Attention, campers! There are five minutes remaining on the challenge, and Team Lovebirds is losing, and it's looking like they're going to head to the elimination tonight, unless things pick up for them in the next five minutes." Announced Chris. LeShawna seethed in fury.
"This is all Heather's fault. She is going home tonight, one way or another." Just then Heather stepped into the clearing.
"You! You had one job to do, and you screwed it up!" Yelled LeShawna.
"Oh please! We're only losing because you and Graffiti-Face over there couldn't guard Bridgette properly! Which should have been easy for you, because anyone who steps behind you becomes instantly invisible." Snapped Heather.
"Ooh, I have just about had it with your attitude today." Snapped LeShawna.
"Haha! Yes! Only five minutes left, and we're not in last! We can do this guys! Guys?" Asked Owen, who looked over to see Izzy digging a hole in the ground and sprayed dirt all over Sadie who promptly shrieked in disgust.
However, suddenly a shriek was heard from the forest. Sadie's face went pale. The voice belonged to Katie.
"Ahhhh! Sadie! Help me!" Shrieked Katie from nearby.
"Katie! I'm coming!" Shrieked Sadie, and she bolted into the woods. However, little did Sadie know, the shrieks were only coming from Sierra' smart phone, who was hiding in a tree and giggling at the sight of Sadie running in circles underneath her.
"Sadie! Wait! Come back!" Cried Owen, but just then he smelt something sweet.
"Do I smell… a chocolate bar?" Cried Owen, and he saw a chocolate bar sitting nearby in the bushes. He gasped in delight, but was promptly pushed aside by Sugar.
"Out of the way, hot stuff, that chocolate is mine!" Shrieked Sugar, and she dove for it, but was surprised when the chocolate began to whisk away from her.
"No! Chocolate! Come back!" Begged Sugar and she began to chase after it. Little did she know, it was just Cody hiding behind a tree, pulling the chocolate bar with a fishing line.
"No! Sugar! Come back! Actually, take your time." Noted Owen, who was still on the floor. However, he gasped when he saw Harold step into the clearing.
"Izzy! Watch out!" Cried Owen, and Harold proceeded to take over twenty photos of Izzy, before promptly fleeing the scene.
"Noooooooo!" Cried Owen.
"Big O, will you keep it down? I'm trying to focus here. Woah, hey, where are Sadie and Sugar?" Asked Izzy, who had only just realised what was happening. Owen slapped his forehead.
"Attention campers! The challenge is over. Please report back to the Mess Hall immediately!" Called Chris. Owen sighed.
Confessional:
Sierra: /giggles/ it was easy, if you ask me. Sadie's weakness is Katie, and Owen and Sugar can both be controlled by food, specifically chocolate. Actually, Owen is more inclined towards chocolate, while Sugar likes more expired products.
Sugar: /finishing an expired carton of milk/ What? Gives it an extra punch of flavour!
All twenty-two campers sat in the Mess Hall after the challenge. Chris, Chef Hatchet and Sugar stood in front of all of them.
"Well, that was a lot more boring than the first challenge. Nobody puked, and nobody was overly attractive, excluding moi." Said Chris. Most of the contestants rolled their eyes.
"Nonetheless, we have tallied the results, and there is a winner and a loser. First of all, in first place, and spending a night in the MacLean Spa Hotel is…Team Incredible!" Announced Chris. All of the members of Team Incredible cheered. Gwen and Trent hugged, Eva gave DJ a high five and accidently knocked him to the ground, and Tyler embraced Lindsay before realising she still smelt like puke and put her down immediately.
"In second place is Team Cody. Unfortunately, you guys don't get to spend the night in the Spa Hotel, but on the plus side, you are safe from elimination!" Said Chris.
"It's okay guys, we worked as a team today, and that's all that matters!" Said Cody.
"No, it's not okay! We need to up our game!" Snapped Courtney.
"This leaves Team Lovebirds, and Team Warriors. Both of you performed pretty abysmally in the challenge. But nonetheless, one of these two teams is going to elimination. And that team is…" Began Chris. Bridgette looked nervous, while LeShawna and Heather glared at one another. Justin looked at himself in the mirror, while Katie and Sadie held hands nervously.
"Team Warriors." Announced Chris. Bridgette, LeShawna, Heather and Justin cheered, while Izzy, Owen, Noah, Katie and Sadie all sighed.
"Team Lovebirds, you are all safe tonight. Meanwhile, one member of Team Warriors will be going home tonight." Announced Chris.
Confessional:
Noah: It's pretty clear who should be going home from our team tonight. Izzy was up to something today and she needs to go. I'm going to try and convince Katie and Sadie to vote with me tonight.
Izzy: I'm voting for Sadie tonight. I don't want to, but hey, I have to vote for someone, and better her than me.
As the evening progressed, Noah approached Katie and Sadie, who were sitting on the steps of the cabin, discussing who to vote off.
"Good evening, ladies." Said Noah. Katie and Sadie looked at each other tentatively.
"Hey, Noah." Said Katie.
"Look, I'll let you get back to…whatever it is that you were doing, but first I think that you should listen to what I have to say." Said Noah.
"We're listening." Said Sadie.
"I think that Koo-Koo von Psycho-Pants has to go tonight. She's been up to something pretty suspicious today, and it's partially why we lost the challenge." Said Noah. Katie looked at Sadie and bit her lip.
"Think about it. If the three of us all voted her off, then there's no way she'd be able to stay in the game." Said Noah.
"We were actually, um, thinking about voting off somebody else tonight." Said Sadie. Noah's eyes widened. He realised the only other people on the team were him and Owen, and in his opinion, Owen was more universally liked by the other competitors.
"M-me?" He stammered, gulping.
"N-no, of course not! We were thinking that we should vote off…Owen." Stammered Sadie. Noah was in shock.
"Owen? But why? He's one of the genuinely good people in this game, and trust me this competition is seriously lacking in that department." Said Noah.
"We know, and we don't want to, but think about it. Physically, he isn't the most helpful competitor, and he's kind of, like, dragging our team down." Said Katie
"And if we voted off Izzy, then the only athletic person on our team left would be Katie." Said Sadie.
"And I'm not even that good." Protested Katie. Noah was still very unsure.
"But…vote off Owen? I've done some pretty terrible things in the past but I think this would be a new low. He's the one person that I truly consider a friend." Said Noah.
"Think about it, Noah. As…quirky as she may be, Izzy is kind of, like, important. Owen…I, like, don't know so much." Said Sadie.
Confessional:
Noah: Owen is the one person I'd actually consider a friend in this messed up game. And now logic is telling me to vote him off. I know I sometimes have the emotional capacity of a carrot, but I'm not sure I can follow logic this time.
Meanwhile, Team Incredible was enjoying their second night in the MacLean Spa Hotel with all the luxuries that the hotel had to offer. Trent, DJ, Tyler and Eva were all lining up at the buffet table.
"This is the best! We are seriously on the road to becoming the best team ever! Three challenges, and two wins." Cheered Tyler. Just then, Gwen came into the room, looking slightly frustrated.
"What's wrong, Gwen?" Asked Trent.
"Lindsay's been hogging the shower for, like, the past two hours." Sighed Gwen.
"Give her a break. She did slip in Geoff's vomit today." Said DJ, as he picked up a slice of bread. However, he realised there was a small note attached to a piece of bread.
"What the-?" He pondered as he tore the note off the bread and read it in his mind.
"You are now part of an even larger competition.
For more details, meet me in front of the bear cave, and don't bring company.
Be prompt."
"What the heck…" Muttered DJ. Eva leaned over.
"What's that?" She asked curiously. DJ jumped, and promptly proceeded to rip up the note.
"Just some sort of lame prank that Chris pulled. It's probably nothing." Chuckled DJ nervously, as he shoved the torn up pieces in his pocket. Eva raised her eyebrows.
Confessional:
DJ: Hah-hah! Good one, Chris! Trying to scare me by dragging me to the bear cave? /gulps/ Y-yeah.
Izzy: So, Chris told me that no-one found the note tonight. Excellent news! I have another day to find the note without anybody interfering! Izzy the Great strikes again! That is, if she doesn't get voted off tonight. /laughs/ But her team-mates love and respect her! Who would vote her off?
Izzy, Owen, Noah, Katie and Sadie sat at the campfire pit, preparing for the dreaded elimination ceremony. Katie leaned over to Noah.
"Who did you vote for?" Asked Katie. Noah looked down at his shoes, ignoring her. Katie looked concernedly at Sadie. At that moment, Chris walked into the elimination ceremony with a plate of four marshmallows.
"Team Warriors, welcome to your second elimination. Today, one of you will be going home, and there will be only four members of your scurvy crew remaining." Announced Chris.
"Izzy, how do you feel that you've gone on to lead ultimately the least successful team so far?" Asked Chris.
"I am offended by this accusation! Izzy's Team of Super-Duper Ninja Warriors is by far the best team! It just so happens that we lose a lot." Said Izzy, promptly blowing a raspberry at Chris. Chris looked disgusted, but shook his head and began the elimination ceremony.
"Anyways, not all of you played a role in your team's loss today. Katie, Noah, the both of you rocked the first part of the challenge, winning an advantage for your team. It didn't exactly help your case, but nonetheless, both of you are safe." Said Chris, flinging a marshmallow at Noah and Katie, the latter of whom squealed as she caught her marshmallow, hugging Sadie excitedly. Noah, however, looked a lot less excited.
"This leaves Izzy, Owen and Sadie. All three of you screwed up today, and one of you will be paying the ultimate price. But, I'll tell you who is not, and that's…Sadie!" Announced Chris, throwing a marshmallow to Sadie, who squealed and embraced Katie.
"This just leaves Owen and Izzy. Owen, you screwed up today by failing to protect Izzy when she wouldn't protect herself. Also, Izzy, most of your team-mates noticed that you seemed a little distracted today." Said Chris.
"Izzy has no comment. Humph." Scoffed Izzy, turning her head away from Chris.
"Nonetheless, there was a loser. And unfortunately, one of the two of you is going home. The final marshmallow of the night goes to…"

"Izzy."
Izzy breathed a sigh of relief and caught her marshmallow. However, her joy was short lived, as she saw the distraught look on Owen's face.
"Big-O! No! Why did it have to be you!" Cried Izzy, embracing Owen. Noah looked down at his shoes, ashamed.
"Its…it's not that…I just…really wanted a marshmallow!" Bawled Owen, crushing Izzy in his arms, bawling uncontrollably.
"Awww!" Cooed Katie and Sadie. Noah stood up.
"I'm sorry, buddy. It's my fault." Said Noah, ashamed.
"It's okay Noah! I already won a season, and I'm happy to leave if it means my little buddy gets to stay for another while." Said Owen, using his other arm to crush Noah in the hug as well. Katie and Sadie stood up, and Owen impressively hugged all four of his team-mates.
"Everybody will miss you Owen, but alas, the Boat of Losers awaits." Said Chris. Owen sniffed.
"You know, Noah, if you really, really, really wanted to make it up to me, you could always give me your…" Noah didn't even need another word, as he passed his marshmallow to Owen, who gobbled it up happily.
"You can have mine too, Big-O!" Cheered Izzy, giving his marshmallow. Katie and Sadie also gave their marshmallows. Tears flooded in Owen's eyes.
"You guys…are just…the best!" Cheered Owen, crushing them all in one final hug.
"I hate to break up this touching moment…actually, I don't…but Owen, you have a date with the Dock of Shame." Announced Chris, grabbing Owen by the arm and dragging him away.
"I'll miss you all!" Bawled Owen as he walked down the Dock of Shame.
"Even moreso when you see the surprise we left for you in the Boat of Losers." Snickered Chris. Owen looked down in the rubber dinghy, and screamed in horror.
"Yoo-hoo! Owen! Get down here!" Cried Sugar, waving at him from the Boat of Losers.
"I…I'm not sure that we'll both fit in there, Sugar!" Stammered Owen.
"Then we better squish up real close!" Purred Sugar. Owen reluctantly jumped into the boat of losers, however, he accidently flung Sugar's end straight into the air and sent Sugar flying away into the distance.
"Phew, that was close." Sighed Owen, wiping his forehead as the screams of Sugar faded into the distance. However, Owen didn't notice that his weight was sinking the boat like an anchor until he was wet and in the water.
"Wait! Chef, I need another boat!" Cried Owen. Chef Hatchet threw him flimsy inner tube, and walked away.
Confessional:
Izzy: It was obviously Noah, Katie and Sadie who voted off my beloved Owen! I can't believe they voted off my best buddy! I'll have to keep a closer eye on them, especially Noah. I bet it was him who orchestrated the whole thing.
Cabin Four – Geoff, Harold, Justin, Noah
Justin was rapidly scrubbing his face with a cloth, trying to wipe the ink off his face, while Geoff and Harold played a casual game of cards, while Noah arrived back at the cabin.
"Dude, where's Owen?" Asked Geoff dimwittedly. Noah gave him a stare until it clicked in Geoff's mind. Geoff gasped.
"No! Owen? But he's such a fun guy! He really got voted off?" Gasped Geoff.
"Well, judging by the fact that he's not here, what do you think, banana-for-brains?" Snapped Noah, lying face down on his bed.
"I'm actually relatively surprised this outcome. I thought Owen's outgoing, sociable personality would have resonated with that of Izzy, Katie and Sadie more than your sobered and tedious personality." Noted Harold.
"I dare you to talk to me about tedious, Harold. I freaking dare you." Grunted Noah. He then noticed Justin vigorously scrubbing his face.
"What is he doing?" Snapped Noah.
"He's been at it since the challenge ended. He might be a little obsessed." Said Geoff. Just then, Justin cheered triumphantly.
"Yes! It's finally all gone! The ink is gone!" Cheered Justin, as he turned to the other three guys, who all screamed. Justin had rubbed his face so hard for so long that now it was red and blistered.
"That's going to scab." Noted Harold. Justin grabbed a mirror and gasped.
"NOOOOOOOOOOOO!"
Votes:
Izzy: I kind of have to vote of Sadie. There's no reason to vote off Katie or Noah, and no way I'm voting off my Big-O! So yeah, all that's left is Sadie, oh, and me, but I'm not going to vote for myself, haha, that would be pretty crazy, even for me. However, I would gladly vote off Kaleidoscope, that chick has been getting wild lately.
Owen: /twiddling his fingers/ Well…I really don't want to have to vote off anybody, because everybody is so nice! But I guess it has to come down to either Katie or Sadie, and I can't decide! I'll let a coin decide it! /flips a coin and sighs/ I guess I'm voting for Sadie.
Noah: I am going to seriously regret this later, but I vote off…Owen. Damn confessional, its silence always makes me feel guilty. Or maybe it's just me.
Katie: I vote off Owen. I seriously, like, don't want to, but we can't afford to lose more, or Sadie and I will be split up! And that was, like, so devastating last time.
Sadie: Owen is, like, such a fun guy! But I have to vote him off. I feel, like, super, duper bad though. Maybe I should buy him a chocolate bar or something! /looks around/ I hope Sugar didn't hear me say that.
Owen – 3
Sadie – 2
Eliminated – Ezekiel, Blaineley, Alejandro, Owen
Still In – Katie, Sadie, Trent, Lindsay, Geoff, Bridgette, Beth, DJ, Gwen, Noah, Cody, Sierra, Izzy, Tyler, Courtney, Harold, Duncan, Heather, Justin, Eva, LeShawna.
Owen is one of the funniest characters on Total Drama, and I will always have a soft spot for him. But he gets far in almost every competition, and I decided that an early elimination was in order…Trust me, I regretted it too.
Also, the whole Sugar/Owen thing was purely for comedic relief…I do not condone a Sugar pairing with anybody. (Unless its maybe Leonard or something). Anyways, I hope you all enjoyed this chapter, and I'm sorry it took so long!
