Chris stood at his new announcing point atop the Hilltop of Shame as he said, "Here we are, ready for another exciting episode of Total Drama City! Last week we sent the townsfolk on a voyage through the sewers. Justin seems to be moving on from Courtney and on to Heather, while Beth is clearly worried about the many girls that are into her boyfriend. We'll see if we can't make these relationships as twisted as possible, for now sit back and enjoy the next episode of Total…Drama…City."
Jasmine knocked on Leshawna's door with a notepad in her hand. The sun was just rising, but Jasmine was already up and full of energy.
As Leshawna opened the door sleepily she said, "Is this important."
"Very," Jasmine said as she entered.
"Okay, I'll go make some breakfast," Leshawna sighed; she was very eager to try out her new kitchen, though.
The new room wasn't massive, but it was able to hold a small fridge, a counter, and a microwave oven. Leshawna searched through the fridge and decided on cereal. She served up two bowls for herself and Jasmine.
"You don't know how lucky you are," Leshawna said. "After eating Chef's slop for four seasons, this stuff is better than a five star restaurant."
Jasmine nodded, then held up her list and exclaimed, "I have here…the list!"
"Your enemies list?" Leshawna asked.
"No, this is my winners list," Jasmine declared. "I've analysed the situation and these are the people who will be the most useful as well as the most willing to help us. Together we'll be able to smite our enemies."
"Um…okay," Leshawna said. "Who's on there?"
"Well, you for starters," Jasmine exclaimed. "You've got great leadership skills and you'd be a perfect strategist. Then we'll need Eva, an athlete like her will surely give us the edge; and we'll need Brady, with his looks he'll be able to charm more than half of the other contestants. And lastly we'll need DJ's mother; she seems to have more experience and skills than anyone else here."
"Okay, but I'm not sure if this'll work out," Leshawna said. "There I some people who just don't mix well, like I don't think Gwen and Eva will get along."
"Yeah, that's why Gwen's not on the list," Jasmine said.
"What? But Gwen's part of the team," Leshawna said.
"Sorry, Leshawna, but she'd only cause problems," Jasmine said with a shrug. "I mean, what can she actually do that's useful?"
"Well, I'm sticking with Gwen, so if you want me, you'll have to take her," Leshawna declared.
"Okay, but it's your loss, Leshawna," Jasmine sighed. "I suppose I'll have to take up your role as leader."
Leshawna just shook her head and sighed, "I'm telling you, this isn't going to work."
Jasmine said goodbye to her friend, then walked down to the row of houses where Brady lived. She knocked on his door. She found that Brady was not alone; he was eating breakfast with the rest of his neighbours. However, they didn't have the luxury of a kitchen so they still ate the sludge that Chef served.
"This stuff is actually tasting a little better," Katie remarked.
"Yeah, Chef must be taking cooking lessons or something," Beth said.
"Hi, Jasmine," Brady greeted as he opened the door. "What can I do for you?"
Jasmine found herself staring at Brady a little longer, but then said, "Right…I was wondering if you and Eva would be interested in joining my team for today's challenge."
"Hey, we're a team," Beth called.
"We'd love to," Brady answered instead.
"What? But…Brady," Beth mumbled.
"I think that you and Katie should get some quality time together," Brady explained. "You seem like such good friends, but you haven't had much time to talk since I arrived. I'm sure the two of you can survive for one challenge without me."
Katie and Beth sighed in unison. Jasmine then walked on to the small hill where Momma DJ lived. She had prepared a massive buffet for Noah and her that morning. Jasmine knocked on the door and waited for her to answer.
"Yes?" the short woman answered.
"Hello, Mrs. DJ, I was hoping that you might join up with my team of winners for today's challenge," Jasmine requested.
"Hm, winners, you say? Alright, I could always use some more remodelling for my house," she agreed.
"Oh, and you don't want me?" scoffed Noah. "I mean, what good would someone with my intelligence be?"
"Sorry, Noah, I've balanced to pros and cons and you're just not winner material," Jasmine explained.
Meanwhile, Cody was visiting his friend, Ezekiel.
"Okay, today you are going to put everything I've taught you into action," Cody declared. "You'll find a girl who's not already taken and preferably not crazy. Compliment her, but don't ever even suggest that she's in anyway inferior to you. No matter what she asks you, 'Do I look fat?' or 'Does this look good on me?', you always have to tell her that she looks great. Even if that means that you lie."
"I don't know if I can do this, eh," Ezekiel sighed.
"Not with that attitude you can't," Cody declared. "You need to believe that you're more than a hopeless loser."
Ezekiel just sighed.
"Attention, all townsfolk!" boomed Chris's voice. "Get ready for today's challenge; I'll meet you on the eastern side outside of town."
The 16 contestants left their homes and walked to where Chris was waited.
"Welcome, to challenge number 3," Chris announced. "Today's topic, Public Transportation. Before we get started though, I'll need you to get into teams and declare a leader."
"Hold on, is this a reward challenge or an elimination challenge?" Courtney asked.
"Nope, not telling this time," Chris said. "It'll be a surprise at the end of the day. Now get into teams."
"Hey, boys!" Izzy exclaimed as she wrapped her arms around Ezekiel and Cody. "We should be a team."
"Okay," Cody said. "Who's going to be leader?"
"Oh, oh, me, me, me, please!" Izzy exclaimed.
"Sure thing, Izzy," Cody said.
"So where's Jasmine?" Gwen asked Leshawna.
"Eck, she's still got her mind set on winning," Leshawna sighed. "She's formed her own team. Looks like we're going to be a team of two again. Do you want to be leader?"
"No way," Gwen said. "That's your job."
"I'd be honoured to have you as my leader, lovely Heather," Justin said.
Heather shot a smirk as Courtney as she snapped at Duncan, "I'm leader, got it?"
Beth spotted Noah and got an idea.
"Hey, Katie, you know what I was thinking?" Beth said. "A pretty and nice girl like you deserves a boyfriend. Last season I got to know Noah and I think that he'd be perfect for you. He and Sadie didn't quite kick it off, but you're more his type."
"Oh…I don't know," Katie said.
Beth's Confessional
Katie and Noah would be perfect for one another. He's a fangirl's dream and Katie's…a fangirl. Then maybe once they're together she'll stop looking at Brady.
Katie's Confessional
Me and Noah? Maybe; he is cute, but he's so cynical all the time. I'm not sure if we're right for one another.
Beth called, "Oh Noah, would you like to join our team?"
"I suppose that's the only option I've got," he sighed. "Which one of you wants to be leader?"
Katie looked and Beth and said, "I've always been more of a follower."
"Oh…okay, if that's what you guys want," Beth said.
"Alright, team, are you ready to win this?" Jasmine said to her team. "Anybody have a problem with me being leader? No, good!"
"Okay, that worked out nicely," Chris exclaimed. "Today you will racing to prove what mode of transportation is the most effective. Your choices: A bus, a taxi-cab, a pickup truck, a horse-drawn carriage, a dogsled, and a motorbike with passenger seat."
As he spoke he pointed to where each vehicle was lined up.
"Now, since Jasmine's team is the only team of four they automatically get the bus," Chris explained. "However the two teams of three will have to duel for the cab or the truck, and the three teams of two are going to have to fight over the remaining three. We've got a special mini-challenge prepared for you."
Chef approached and tossed a chest in front of the crowd. It was full of a variety of weapons.
"You will take turns to duel one another with your choice of any of these weapons," Chris continued. "You will be judged not only on whether you win or not, but also grace, style, and accuracy. And to help with the judging, let's all welcome our guest judge, straight out of the hospital…it's Harold!"
The crowd cheered as the redheaded nerd arrived. He was using a wheelchair now, but he was smiling at the applause from his former competitors.
"Greetings all," he exclaimed, "It is—"
"Yeah, that's great, but we need to get on with the show," Chris said as he pushed Harold aside. "Let's start the duels with Izzy and Katie."
The two began to search through the weapons. Izzy chose a large battle-axe while Katie went with a spear.
"Now remember, it's not all about how much you can hurt your opponent," Chris said. "You can if you want, but try not to kill them."
Izzy smiled viciously as she gripped her axe. Katie looked nervous as she glanced between Izzy and her weapon.
"Begin!" Chris said.
Izzy immediately charged at Katie. The smaller girl just turned and ran. Izzy swung and slammed her axe around wildly. Katie kept her grip on her spear, but never raised it. Izzy eventually caught up with her, and Katie was forced to lift her spear to shield herself from the blow.
"Okay, that'll do," Chris called. "The judges will now discuss."
Harold, Chris, and Chef huddled together and Chris said, "Well it's clear that Izzy would probably win that fight."
"Yeah, that other girl wouldn't even use her weapon," Chef agreed.
"However, that was the wisest move," Harold pointed out. "A spear like that could never stand up against a strong battle-axe. I was actually quite impressed that she managed to parry with it."
"That's true," Chris said, "and Izzy's performance was anything but graceful."
"We have decided on the winner," Chris then announced. "Point goes to Katie!"
Izzy slammed down her axe in annoyance.
Katie just gasped, "I won?"
"Good job, Katie," Beth exclaimed as she hugged her friend.
"Next up, let's have," Chris thought, "Beth versus Ezekiel."
The two began to search through the chest. Beth chose a staff, while Ezekiel pulled out a bow.
"Aha, I've used this before, eh," he said happily.
The two faced off. Beth spun her staff like a baton, while Ezekiel readied an arrow. He fired, but Beth blocked it with her staff. However, the arrow pierced the wood and damaged her staff.
"Oops," she exclaimed.
Ezekiel fired another arrow and Beth dodged aside. She made her way towards Ezekiel as he continued to fire arrows. Beth raised her staff to swing, only to have another arrow lodged into it. This time part of it snapped off.
"That should do for now," Chris said, then turned to his other judges. "I'd say that Ezekiel was the more skilled."
"Yes, especially since the bow is far from the ideal combat weapon," Harold added.
"Ezekiel wins this round," Chris declared. "Now it comes down to a tiebreaker between Noah and Cody."
The two boys chose their weapons carefully. Cody held up a broadsword proudly while Noah chose a rapier.
"I must warn you, Noah, that I am an expert of Mortal Kombat," Cody declared proudly.
"That's cute, but I have mastered every game in the Soul Calibur series," Noah said as he twirled his sword.
"Oh god, shut up with the nerd speak!" Heather complained.
The two held their weapons and attacked. The swords clashed, but Noah pulled back. He made another quick attack that Cody barely had time to block. Then Cody returned the blow with a powerful strike, Noah stepped aside.
"You're clearly a worthy adversary," Noah exclaimed as he continued to block Cody's strikes. "Your biggest weakness if your own weapon, however."
"No way, your puny little stick won't protect you as soon as I get a good hit in," Cody said as he brought his sword down against one of Noah's blows.
"True, but the longer this battle lasts, the heavier your sword will feel," Noah said as he flicked his weapon against Cody's arm. "And soon you'll dance right into my arms."
Cody swung with all his might, but this only allowed for Noah to bring himself in close to Cody. He held his rapier just below his nose.
"Touché," he said with a smile.
Cody pulled back and raised his sword again. He moved to strike again and Noah prepared to block. However at the last second Cody pulled back. Noah fell forward and Cody pressed his sword against Noah's chest.
"Touché," he echoed.
"Well, that was impressive," Chris commented. "Let's discuss, shall we?"
"Noah was the more stylistic," Harold explained. "His movements were all smooth with his blade."
"Yes, but Cody did get the final blow," Chris added.
"Only after he got that sword right under his nose," Harold retorted.
"Hey, I want a say in this," Chef demanded. "That wimpy sword was weak, no matter how fancy he danced around. I'd say that the kid with the big sword wins."
"And the winner is," Chris announced. "Cody! Which means that Izzy will get to pick the vehicle that her team gets. What's it going to be, Izzy, the cab or the truck."
She looked at the two; neither was in good condition. The cab was a small yellow car with paint peeling off. The truck was blue with a wooden fence around the back; however it was mostly falling off and wouldn't offer much protection.
"I'll take the truck!" Izzy exclaimed. "It looks like the most exciting."
"And that leaves Beth with the taxi," Chris concluded. "Now let's move onto the next round of the duels. The first shall be between…Justin and Duncan."
Justin chose a Japanese katana, while Duncan grabbed a mace.
"You show him, Duncan," Courtney cheered.
Duncan charged immediately and Justin pulled back. Justin raised his sword and began to slice skillfully. Duncan swung his weapon and smashed it against Justin's sword. The sword went flying out of Justin's grasp and landed in the dirt. Justin gasped as he ran to grab it. This proved to be a bad idea as it allowed for Duncan to hold his mace right above Justin's head.
The judges began their discussion as Harold said, "Justin may have been more stylistic, but he forgot the most important rule: Never let go of your weapon."
"I think that we can all agree here," Chris declared. "The point goes to Duncan!"
Courtney hugged Duncan while Justin sighed, "I have failed you."
"Yeah, you did," Heather scoffed. "I'm really disappointed."
"And next will shall have Heather versus Gwen," Chris declared.
"You are so going down, freak," Heather said menacingly as she grabbed a three pronged spear.
Gwen chose a small knife. The two girls stared at each other angrily, then Heather charged. Gwen dived to the side and attacked with her knife. Heather parried with her spear. The knife and spear clashed and Gwen cried out in pain, but she didn't let go of her weapon. Gwen continued to dodge Heather's attacks, but she couldn't get in close enough for her weapon to be of any use. Every time she approached Heather, she would jab at her with her spear.
Eventually the judges held their discussion and Chris concluded, "The point goes to Heather. Now for the final match, Courtney versus Leshawna."
Leshawna chose a large hammer, while Courtney cracked a whip. This caught Duncan's attention as well as Justin's, but he quickly looked back at Heather.
"You're dead," Courtney declared. "I have experience with this."
"Why am I just learning this now?" Duncan said.
"Duncan, can you just be quiet," Courtney growled.
Courtney proved that she was quite skilled with the whip as she flicked it against Leshawna's legs, arms, and chest. Leshawna raised her hammer to block, but she was never fast enough. Eventually she changed her tactic and charged at her opponent. Courtney just swung her weapon and tripped Leshawna with it. The large girl tumbled to the ground clumsily.
"I think it's clear who the winner of this round is," Chris exclaimed. "With Courtney winning her team two points she will pick first. Your options are the horse carriage, the dogsled, or the motorbike."
"Pick the motorbike," Duncan told her.
"No way, I have no idea how to drive that thing," Courtney said. "I'd end up getting myself killed. I'll take the horse-drawn carriage."
"Are you seriously trying to lose?" Duncan sighed.
"Heather can pick second with one point," Chris said.
"It's not like there's any choice," she scoffed. "I'll take the motorcycle."
"And that leaves Leshawna and Gwen with the dogsled," Chris concluded.
The girls sighed as they looked at their ride. A group of dogs slept lazily in front of the small sled. Courtney meanwhile was petting the pair of horses at the front of her carriage. Heather was tentatively getting herself acquainted with the motorcycle.
"Now, all the non-leaders will be dropped off somewhere on your trail," Chris explained as a group of helicopters began to descend. "It is the leaders job the pick them up on their way to the finish line. Just follow the flags and you should be fine. The first three groups to arrive with all their members and their vehicle will win, while the three behind will be the losers."
The groups of contestants crowded onto the helicopters as they were lifted off into the air. The first stop for some was a nearby forest where Cody, Momma DJ, and Noah were dropped off. Next the helicopters continued to a group of hills pasted the forest. Brady, Gwen, Justin, and Duncan were dropped off here. Then lastly they arrived at a canyon, this was where Ezekiel, Eva, and Katie got off.
"Okay, leaders, get ready," Chris said as the five teens got in their vehicles, "And go!"
They were off to a rocky start. Jasmine was having enough difficulty trying to operate the bus, plus it's large size constantly caused it to scrape against trees and rocks. Beth was nervously starting up her car.
"Okay, you can do this," she told herself.
"What's the matter, Beth, haven't you driven before?" Chris asked.
"Um…not much," Beth confessed.
Izzy meanwhile was flooring it in her truck. However this result in her crashing into several trees and having to swerve constantly.
"Giddyup," Courtney ordered to he horses.
They obeyed immediately and took off.
"Come on, can't you guys do that?" Leshawna complained to her pack of dogs.
The animals were more interested in grooming themselves. Lastly, Heather took off on her motorcycle. After her initial scream of terror she started to get the hang of it. Leshawna sighed then looked at the three other competitors still struggling to get through the trees.
Leshawna's Confessional
I'd say that we're doomed, except with competition like this it's really hard to say.
Over in the rocky canyon three contestants waited.
"I'm not waiting around here," Eva finally decided.
The strong girl began to leave behind the canyon as she marched towards the hills.
"But Eva this is, like, where the leaders are going to look for us," Katie pointed out.
"So? I'll just meet them at the point in the hills," Eva said. "I saw Brady get off there."
"Ooh, Brady, I'll go too," Katie squealed.
"We're on different teams," Eva pointed out as she left them behind.
"Oh yeah," Katie sighed.
Ezekiel meanwhile was watching Katie.
He dusted himself off and sighed, "Here goes nothing."
He then walked up to Katie and said, "Um, Katie, I think that you…look…nice, eh."
"Oh…uh, thanks," Katie said.
"Yeah," Ezekiel said. "You…look…nice."
"You already said that," Katie pointed out.
"Right," Ezekiel sighed.
Ezekiel's Confessional
How am I supposed to compliment these girls, eh, when there's nothing much for me to say, eh? I dunno; maybe I should just forget about girls, eh, I mean I don't get what the whole hype is about anyway, eh.
Katie's Confessional
Me and Ezekiel? Well, it's, like, cute that he's trying and stuff, but I think he needs, like, a few more social skills or something. Then again, he's pickup lines are still better than Cody's.
Over in the hills Gwen was wandering about looking for a place to get out of the sun. She found a small shady spot at the base of a hill and sat down. After a bit of relaxing she noticed something was approaching.
"Well, well, look who it is," Duncan said as he looked over her.
"Duncan, I don't know how many times I have to tell you this, but you need to leave me alone," Gwen sighed. "You have a girlfriend."
"Yeah, and what a treasure she is," Duncan said sarcastically as he sat down next to her.
"I'm still holding to my policy from last season," Gwen said. "I'm not going to get involved in a relationship as long as I'm on this show."
"Well, one kiss doesn't necessarily mean a relationship," Duncan said as he leaned towards her.
Gwen felt the strong urge to kiss the boy. She leaned in, but pulled herself back.
"No, Courtney would kill me. She'd kill both of us," Gwen said.
"No one's going to know," Duncan said.
"Like how no one was supposed to know back in the airplane bathroom?" Gwen said. "Look, if you don't like Courtney, that's your problem, don't drag me into it. There are other ways to breakup then cheating on her."
"But I do like Courtney," Duncan said. "But it all depends on her mood; and right now she's not being too pleasant."
"Well, I'm sorry but that's not how relationships work," Gwen said. "You either commit to someone or you breakup. You can't juggle between two girls."
Meanwhile at the top of the hill Justin was staring at Brady angrily.
"Everything alright, Justin?" Brady asked with a friendly smile.
Justin just looked away.
Justin's Confessional
Well, he's not that good looking…Oh, who am I kidding? He's gorgeous and he's nice. I'll never reach my full potential as long as he's around.
The racers were deep in the forest now. Izzy was happily tearing through the wildlife at a high speed, while Jasmine was carefully trying to squeeze her bus between trees. Beth would hit the brakes whenever she saw the slightest bit of movement, and Leshawna had finally gotten the dogs to move, only for them to move a walking pace. Only Heather and Courtney were having any success in moving forward.
Izzy spotted her passenger first; she honked the horn and called, "Hop in!"
Cody looked over the truck nervously and asked, "Are you sure this is safe?"
"Absolutely," Izzy exclaimed. "Now hurry up, we've got to catch up."
Cody tentatively climbed into the back of the truck and Izzy immediately took off. Cody was slammed to the back of the truck; the wood railing only snapped off after he smashed into it. Cody had to hang onto the edges for his dear life. Beth spotted Noah next. She stopped and parked as Noah got in.
"Maybe I should drive," Noah suggested.
"Good idea," Beth agreed as she moved over to the passenger seat.
Noah took off and continued on a much smoother journey.
"So, Noah, what do you think of Katie?" Beth asked.
"Meh, she's pretty annoying," Noah answered.
"Oh…well don't you think she's cute?" Beth asked.
"I guess….a little," Noah answered unemotionally.
Beth furrowed her brow in frustration. Jasmine was the last one to spot her passenger. Mrs. DJ entered and looked at her irritated.
"You don't know the first thing about buses," she complained. "You should let me drive."
"No way, I'm the leader here," Jasmine said. "Now sit down and buckle up."
"It's a bus," Mrs. DJ pointed out. "It doesn't have seatbelts"
"Really?" Jasmine gasped.
"What did I tell you? You don't know a think about buses," Mrs. DJ scoffed.
Heather had sped up to Courtney and was passing her now.
"Looks like you missed out," Heather taunted as she pulled ahead.
"Don't let her get away!" Courtney shouted at her horses.
The two soon exited the forest and had moved onto the hills. Eventually they spotted the four figures in the distance. Heather saw Justin and slowed down to a stop.
"Ah, good to see you, Heather," Justin exclaimed. "I don't know how much longer I could spend with that polite gentleman."
"Whatever, just get it," Heather scoffed as she glanced back at Courtney.
Duncan was climbing into her carriage and she ordered the horses to take off. Justin squeezed into the small passenger seat and Heather sped up again. As the two rivals pulled ahead, it wasn't long before Gwen and Brady spotted two more vehicles To their disappointment they realized that neither belong to their teams.
Izzy was still driving wildly, despite the fact that there no more obstacles, with Cody still screaming in terror. Behind them Noah was driving the cab with Beth sitting next to him.
"Hi Brady," came a voice from the other direction.
Brady turned around to see a sweaty Eva standing in front of him.
"Eva, what are you doing here?" Brady asked.
"I got tired of waiting, I'd rather stick with you," she answered.
As Beth drove by she eyed the two of them in annoyance. Next the bus arrived slowly.
"There's our ride," Brady exclaimed.
Jasmine stopped and let the two on.
"Great, we've got everybody," Jasmine exclaimed. "Now we can really put it into overdrive."
"Do you even know how to change gears on a bus?" Mrs. DJ asked.
"Shut up," Jasmine groaned as she continued to drive.
"Leshawna, where are you?" Gwen sighed.
Heather and Courtney were still going head to head. Duncan was being shaken back and forth with every bump and Justin's face was being blown back as Heather continued to speed up. Katie and Ezekiel saw them coming and immediately got out of the way.
"It's a canyon!" Heather gasped. "This could get rough."
Courtney pulled ahead as her horses clopped down the rocky trail, but Heather stayed right behind her.
"Ah, Heather, you look so beautiful with the wind blowing your hair and the fire burning in your eyes," Justin commented.
"Now is not the time," Heather said yet she still couldn't help but let her gaze drift to Justin.
"You are the image of a true champion if I ever saw one," Justin continued.
"You really think so?" Heather said as she blushed.
"Heather, watch where you're going!" Justin then cried.
It was too late, the motorcycle skidded off the trail and they fell down the canyon. Luckily they managed to crash into another ledge before they could pick up much falling speed, but the bike was still destroyed.
"Well, this sucks," Heather groaned.
The next three vehicles were all approaching with increasing speed. Izzy still had the lead, but Noah was gaining on her. Jasmine brought up the rear with the bus.
"I don't have time to stop; you'll just have to jump in, Zeke!" Izzy called as she approached the pair of passengers.
Ezekiel leapt at the truck and Cody was able to grab his hand and pull him in. Then they both returned to screaming as Izzy drove frantically down the canyon. Noah had stopped to pick up Katie. Then returned to pursuing after the truck.
"You need to give it more gas," Eva shouted at Jasmine.
"No, what you need is someone who can actually drive a bus," Momma DJ argued.
"Maybe you could lighten up on the brakes," Brady suggested.
"Everybody, shut up, I'm the driver here!" Jasmine shouted at them.
However she faced another difficulty as she tried to make her way down the canyon trail.
"The bus is too big," Jasmine gasped. "We're going to fall."
Meanwhile Leshawna had just picked up Gwen in the hills. The dogs clearly didn't like the added weight and slowed down even more.
"Oh, come on," Leshawna complained.
Courtney was still in the lead up at the canyon. The horses were going uphill now and had slowed down. Courtney spotted Izzy catching up with them.
"Come on, can't you go a little faster?" Courtney urged the horses.
"Looks like they're tired of listening to you," Duncan remarked.
"I do not need your little comments right now," Courtney growled.
Jasmine had now taken to driving incredibly slowly along the trail.
"I can do this," she breathed. "Just one step at a time."
She felt the bus lurch to the side and everyone held their breaths. Then it slowly returned to its gradual pace. Everyone sighed in relief. Then Jasmine spotted the dogsled approaching from the rear.
"Hey look, we might not finish last," Leshawna exclaimed.
Chris, Chef, and the wheelchair-bound Harold all waited at the finish line.
"I bet fifty bucks that Heather's going to win," Chris said. "That motorcycle was definitely the best choice."
"Ha, no matter what vehicle she's driving, we all know that that psycho redhead is the one that's going to get here first," Chef argued.
"You're both wrong," Harold said. "Leshawna is the one who will conquer all opponents."
"Well, here comes someone now," Chris said as he pointed. "It's…Courtney."
The three sighed in disappointment.
"Oh, but Izzy is right behind her," Chris added.
"Go, psycho girl!" Chef called.
The truck was still going speedy, while the horses were exhausted now. However, just as Izzy started to pass Courtney, the large amounts of abuse finally caught up with the truck. The tires are rolled out from under it, the doors snapped off, and what remained of the back disintegrated.
"No!" cried Izzy.
Cody and Ezekiel were just relieved that the ride was over. Both looked like they were ready to vomit. Courtney managed to keep moving until she arrived at the finish line.
"And we have the first winner, Courtney!" Chris announced.
Next came Noah, Beth, and Katie in the taxi. They seemed didn't seem to have anyone tailing behind them and quickly passed the finish line.
"Beth, Noah, Katie, you guys are also winners today," Chris announced.
Arriving next came the bus, followed by the dogsled. Both were moving quite slow. Jasmine was trying to wrestle the steering wheel from Momma DJ, while the sled dogs looked like they were ready to collapse.
"That's it," Eva growled as she kicked Jasmine and Momma DJ out of the way. "We don't need a leader or an expert, we need someone to use the freaking gas."
She then slammed down on the gas and pulled ahead. They were the third winners.
"Congratulations guys!" Chris cheered. "I'm afraid the rest of you are losers."
Chef growled in annoyance at Izzy, Harold sighed as Leshawna eventually arrived, and Chris asked, "Where is Heather?"
Heather and Justin finally arrived covered in bruises and scrapes.
"So, to all of our winners, you will find a second floor on your houses complete with a new sun room," Chris announced. "And for the losers, I'm afraid that tonight will be an elimination. Make your picks and meet me at the Hilltop of Shame."
Leshawna approached Jasmine and said, "Well looks like your strategy worked better than mine."
"Maybe," Jasmine sighed. "But you were right about some people not mixing. I'll never work with those jerks again."
Leshawna's Confessional
This time had better actually be an elimination, because I think that it's time that we got rid of Heather.
Brady's Confessional
Well, I really hate voting for such nice people, but that Izzy girl looks a little scary. Did you see the way she was swinging that axe? And then there's her crazy driving.
Jasmine's Confessional
Let's see, enemies list…Number one: Heather.
Heather's Confessional
Hm, who do I want to vote for? Gwen will no doubt try to get in my way, but Leshawna is the bigger threat right now.
The sixteen campers gathered on the Hilltop of Shame.
"Welcome to your first real elimination," Chris greeted. "Let's start by giving out Letters of Victoria to our winners."
Once he was done handing out the letters all that remained were Gwen, Leshawna, Cody, Heather, Izzy, and Ezekiel.
"Well, this is familiar," Chris remarked. "I seem to recall you six being the losers on the last elimination. But let's see if people have changed their minds on whom they would like to see gone."
Ezekiel looked really nervous this time, while Heather smirked at him. Leshawna just glared at Heather.
"First off, Cody, you've got mail!" Chris said as he tossed a letter.
Cody grabbed it happily.
"And next up…Gwen!" Chris continued. "Also safe are…Ezekiel and Leshawna."
Ezekiel collapsed in relief as he grabbed his letter. Now all that remained were Heather and Izzy. Heather still tried to remain confident, but her eyes showed a sign of fear.
"And the final Letter of Victory tonight will go to…"

"What you can't do this to me!" Heather screamed.
She then turned around to see that everyone was smiling at her. She remembered Gwen telling her that she had no friends. She turned to Justin who was smiling with the rest of the crowd.
"You did this on purpose," she accused at him. "You made me lose my focus. You don't actually like me at all…You're worse than Alejandro!"
She then pulled him close and kissed him tightly. She let go and turned away.
"Get me out of here," she snarled at Chris.
A ladder dropped in front of her and looked up to see a helicopter. She climbed up as everyone waved goodbye. Then they turned and returned to their homes.
Courtney was admiring her new sunroom, although it was hard to appreciate without the sun.
She instead turned to Justin and said, "You did good; I think that you really had Heather fooled."
Justin just smiled at her as she continued, "I knew that it wouldn't be long before she made an enemy out of everyone, only this time she couldn't keep immunity like she always does. You took care of that."
"With her gone you're sure to win this," Justin said.
"Oh don't be so sure," Courtney said with a scowl. "There are others that I'll have to deal with eventually. Just curious, did you actually feel anything for Heather?"
"Who needs a silver medal when I have the gold right here?" Justin said as he looked at Courtney lovingly.
"One kiss. That's all I promised you," Courtney said.
"Well, are you going to make good on that promise?" Justin asked.
"You are not telling Duncan about this," Courtney ordered as she pulled Justin into a kiss.
Chris stood outside Heather's former home. Chef drove a bulldozer and headed directly for the small shack.
As it crashed down Chris remarked, "That's one down and fourteen more to go. Who will the winner be? Will Courtney be able to eliminate all of her enemies? Will Jasmine find a strategy to take her to the top? Be sure to come back and see what happens next on Total…Drama…City!"
