A/N: Here is the next chapter. I hope you like it, it turned out a bit differently than what I had planned but it let me get another character involved so I am not complaining. There are still some characters I have yet to put in, please tell me who you want to see more of and I will get them in the next chapter...at some point. I hope you like it.

Disclaimer: I forgot to put this in previous chapters but I think it is pretty obvious that I do not own Total Drama Island, wish I did though...


Gwen was walking home from Trent's concert and right next to her was the music man himself.

"So the guitar string snapped, and hit you in the eye?" Gwen asked trying not to laugh at his pain.

"Yeah, not one of my proudest moments" Trent said chuckling "So did you like the concert?"

"Well" Gwen tapped her chin in thought and suppressed a giggle at Trent's hopeful expression "yes Trent I liked it, the crowd surfing was a bit much though."

"That was Eddie's idea, the bass player" Trent added at her raised eyebrow "he's kind of a nut job but nothing compared to Izzy, I heard she and Duncan accidentally egged her own house."

Gwen laughed "yeah Courtney told me, Duncan had no idea but Izzy knew the whole time and told him just as they finished the third carton."

"Wow, I bet Izzy's parents weren't too happy about that" Trent said.

"Actually they were fine with it, they said it added a certain flair to the house" Gwen said "Courtney said Duncan almost passed out when Izzy finally remembered whose house it was."

"Izzy didn't know it was her own house?" Trent asked eyebrows raised.

"She said it slipped her mind, which isn't that hard to believe knowing her" Gwen said. She stopped walking "uh Trent."

"Yes?"

"We just passed my house" she said looking back.

"Oops, guess Izzy isn't the only weird one" he said heading back with her.

"I think she wore off on us a little bit, I was completely normal before this summer" Gwen said heading up her walk.

"Really?" Trent asked.

"Okay so maybe I wasn't "normal" but I was less prone to being not normal before" she paused "I'm not sure that just made sense."

Trent smiled "neither am I."

Gwen looked at him "did I ask for your opinion?" she teased then said "well I better go inside before my brother tries to take pictures of us."

Trent was about to ask when he saw a small face in a window and smirked "I think it's a little late for that" he said as a flash went off.

Gwen turned "Knock it off! Ugh I need to smash that camera!" Trent grabbed her arm and spun her around "well before you do that we may at least give him some good pictures" he said kissing her.

Gwen put her arms around Trent temporarily forgetting everything until another flash went off and she pulled away and glared at the window where she could already see her brother running away "little pest" she grumbled. She gave Trent a quick peck then said good bye and stormed inside. Gwen rushed to her room hoping she wasn't too late, but her brother was already in her chair in front of the computer, his camera hooked up to it.

"You are dead!" she yelled charging at him, he started and typed quickly before pulling the cord out of the computer dodging around Gwen and out of her room slamming the door behind him with a triumphant expression. She groaned, the pictures were already posted on her brother's blog titled "My Crazy Sister, discussions on the trials of being a younger brother" she had once been able to hack into the blog but he had put up new fire walls making it impossible. Gwen sighed and decided to go on the IM she had promised to tell Bridgette and Leshawna abut the concert. She noticed that there were now three different IMs one labeled "Girls only" another "Guys Only" and the third "Whoever", she clicked the girls one and signed in.

ArtisticLoner: wow….

StreetwiseSista: and I thought Harold was bad….

WaveRider: he just gets so nervous and while it is kinda cute it's kind of annoying that he still hasn't managed to ask me, he's perfectly fine until he tries to ask me, if that's what he's trying to ask me….what if he's trying to break up but gets nervous?

Straight As: yeah he did but Izzy did it with him….

WaveRider: she egged her own house?

Straight As: yep, she told Duncan about twenty minutes after they started, he almost had a heart attack

ArtisticLoner: yeah you told me that but Duncan? That seems kinda weird that he would freak out…

Straight As: yeah that's what I said when Izzy told me when I asked him he denied it so I'm not sure who to believe

WaveRider: did her parents freak?

Straight As: no, actually they said it made the house look better

StreetwiseSista: weird….well I guess they ARE Izzy's parents

Straight As: yeah they said Duncan was welcome at their house anytime which is more than I can say about MY mom who won't let him any where near our house

ArtisticLoner: harsh much

Straight As: she hasn't even talked to him, it drives me crazy that she won't try to get to know him!

WaveRider: well maybe it's better that she doesn't…

Noah was bored out of his mind, he had invited Cody over to help him sort out his computer, he was too lazy to look up an actual mechanic or whatever they were called, to fix it so he had hoped Cody could do it. He was now almost wishing he had taken the extra effort as Cody had this very annoying habit of talking, which wasn't so bad but he was only talking about technology which Noah could really care less about or himself whom Noah wished would go away soon.

"So to get your hard drive working again I need to reconfigure the motherboard" Cody said looking at the computer which he had spent the past half hour carefully dissecting.

"Yeah, yeah get to reconfiguring or whatever it is then" Noah said leaning against a wall wishing he had a book "so how much longer is this going to take?"

Cody stood up wiping his hands off, there really was no need for this but Cody had seen a real mechanic do it once and thought it would up his cool factor, he was wrong, "well it's a complicated piece of machinery but I should have it up and running in an hour or so."

"Get to it then" Noah said bored. Cody knelt over the computer and grabbed a screwdriver and reached in when there was a small spark and he leapt back, Noah chuckled "very impressive" he said mockingly.

Cody growled "you could help you know" he said annoyed.

"Yeah that isn't my forte but more power to you" Noah said plopping down in a nearby swivel chair.

Cody rolled his eyes and turned back to the computer muttering "no wonder you were kicked off first."

Noah sat up "what was that?"

"Nothing!" Cody said quickly "lazy jerk" he added under his breath.

"I'm not paying you to criticize me" Noah said looking down his nose at Cody.

"You're not paying me at all" Cody said wondering why he had agreed to do this in the first place. His wonderings were interrupted when the doorbell rang, Noah got up reluctantly and walked to the door and opened it.

"Owen, what a surprise" Noah said genuinely surprised "what brings you here?" he asked holding the door open and allowing Owen's rather large form to enter.

"Hi Noah, I heard Cody was here" Owen said looking around "nice place you got here" he added observing Noah's mansion like house.

"Yes it is, isn't it" Noah said looking around briefly "Cody's over there, I was having computer problems and he was much cheaper than a professional" Noah said leading Owen over to Cody who was looking at the four wires he held in his hands.

"Now is it blue to red and green to yellow or blue to green and red to yellow?" he muttered then tried the former and received a small zap "ouch, okay not that one, oh hi Owen" he said looking up.

"Hey Cody, uh what cha doin'?" Owen asked. Cody stood up wiping his hands again "I'm trying to reroute the hard drive of Noah's computer by reconfiguring the mother board and reattaching the CPU so then I can retool the initial programming."

"Fascinating" Owen said.

Cody sighed "you have no idea what I just said do you?"

"Not a clue" Owen said cheerfully "so Cody I need your help."

"What do you need help with?" Cody asked while Noah rolled his eyes.

"Well Gwen needs a certain picture of her taken off her brother's blog" Owen said looking at Cody hopefully "so would be able to do it?"

Cody thought for a moment "I probably could, what's it a picture of?"

Owen had dreaded this "her kissing Trent" he said quietly.

"Well I do still have to fix Noah's computer and then my mom will probably make me do chores" Cody said, he had moved on but the after effects of a crush tend to stay with as long as gums stays in your stomach.

"I thought you didn't do chores" Noah said from his swivel chair.

Cody glared at him then turned to Owen "well I guess I can get the photo off the kid's blog" he said sighing. Owen smiled and pulled Cody into a bone crushing hug "Thank you! Thank you! Thank You!"

"Uh yeah no problem Owen" Cody gasped "uh can you put me down? I can't breath."

"Oh sorry" Owen said setting Cody down.

"No problem, I'll get rid of it as soon as I finish with Noah's computer" he said.

"Speaking of which, can you get on with fixing it already, I'm not paying you to stand around" Noah said.

"You're not paying me at all!" Cody growled at Noah.

"You're awesome Cody!" Owen wasn't even paying attention to the previous comments as he made his way to the door "bye guys!" he called shutting the door behind him.

"Well now he's gone so get a move on it Cod-ster, chop, chop" Noah said snapping his fingers. Cody muttered darkly and got back to work but "accidentally" threw his screw driver over his shoulder and hearing a thump and an "Ow!" from Noah and smiled, maybe this wasn't going to be so bad after all.
