"Last time on TDRW, after that crazy pre-challenge elimination challenge and the mini hunt in the warehouse, I thought a nice friendly game show filled with tricky question about knick knacks and rolling down a hill into vats of various surprises would be a nice break. Some players are Knick knack savis, but others were not especially Sugar who practically held the Panthers back. That and she was really annoying which almost made Anne Maria lose her head. Dispite the fact that Courntey lost to Erin, making her team lose, and fell into a vat of green jelly, it was Sugar going home. Will the Wolves win three in a row? Find out in this thrilling, action packed episode of Total Drama Road Warriors!"
Erin woke up to the sounds of songbirds, until she hits the snooze button. She tucked the strands of her black hair behind her ear and let out a soft yawn. "Good morning Erin." She turned her head slightly to see Zoey greeting her with a friendly smile.
~in the wolf confessional~
"Being on the same team with Zoey is the best! Ever since season 4 I always like to think of her as the sister I never had but really wanted. I guess it's because she and I have some things in common, for example I had a bit of a lonely childhood too, for a different reason. She is my hero. I would've love to tell her that but the last thing I wanna do is embarrass myself and scare her."
~confessional ends~
"We just arrived at a new location, better see what sweet torture Chris has planned for us." Erin giggled at Zoey's light sarcasm.
Everyone got off their RV and gasped at what they saw. "Anyone recognize this place?" Chris asked. Sierra squealed and jumped glee to get Chris's attention. "I know! It's the abandoned movie studio lot from Total Drama Action." "Correct Sierra, this where we'll be having our next challenge and be spending the next couple of days." "Are you serious?!" "Just be glad it's in the middle of civilization Dave. Now, these challenges will be a combination of movie genres and some from past total drama seasons. Now grab some breakfast at Craft's services because you are gonna need a lot of energy for this one." Team Wolf and Team Panther walked over to where Craft's services is set up."I hope it's not going to be a horror movie genre." Zoey said with a concerned tone. "Don't worry Zoey, I'll protect you." Mike said as he comforted her by holding Zoey's hand. "And besides this sheila knows a thing or two about the do's and don'ts in horror movie situations." Jasmine said, patting on Gwen's back. "Uh...thanks Jasmine." "Don't be shy Gwen, you should be proud. At least this time we won't run into a real psycho killer." Zoey giggled with her horror movie loving friend and they both laughed. Leshawna couldn't help but overhear them.
~in the Panther Confessional~
"What is up with that Zoey girl? She is a little too friendly. No doubt that red is up to something. Why would she be friends with Gwen? Looks like I'll have to keep a close eye on her." Leashawna said as she glared away from the camera.
~confessional ends~
After everyone arrived and grabbed their chow, Erin just had a lightbulb moment. "Oh wait! Before we eat, how about a group photo?" "Why?" "Look, So far this team has won two challenges in a row, eventually we'll lose not only the challenge but also a team member so I thought we should all take one before that happens." Everyone nodded and agreed to that idea. Erin set up her red digital camera she managed to smuggle in, set it on the counter near their table and set the timer. She quickly joined the others. "Say road trip." "Road trip!" The camera took their picture. Leshawna's still glared at Gwen and Zoey.
Later, they were told to report to studio number 5. While they were walking Dawn tapped on Leshawna's shoulder. "Leshawna, may I speak with you?" "Pass girl, I am in the zone right now," They finally arrived. "Why are we in a court?" Dave asked. Chris appeared in a referee uniform. "Because today's challenge is an ode to TDA's Sports Movie genre." Sky's eyes lit up when Chris made that announcement and yelled, "Woohoo!"
~in the Panther confessional~
"Of course this would be a sports movie challenge, this is Sky's element!" Dave said sounding frustrated.
~confessional ends~
"Calm down Sky, unless you are excited for...Danger Ball!" Everyone gasped at the title. "Say what now?!" Leshawna exclaimed. "It's also an ode to the dodgeball challenge from season one. Did I forget to mention that?" "Yes you did." Gwen answered while glaring at the mischievous host. "Any who, your challenge is to win a game of dodge ball while avoiding not only the dodge-balls so but also some other obstacles you may encounter during each game. First team to win three games wins."
~in the Wolf confessional~
"On second thought, I prefer a horror movie challenge, at least I know what's coming, and Mike will protect me." Zoey said, sighing dreamily at the thought of being in Mike's arms in a scary movie situation.
~confessional ends~
Courtney spoke up in a snobby tone. "Excuse me Chris, but they have eleven players to our ten." "Fine...6 wolves sit out, 5 panthers sit out. Anymore questions? Okay, pick your players."
~in the Panther confessional~
"This is so not fair, some of my teammates aren't even athletic. I need to be really careful about who I pick." Courtney said as she pondered.
~confessional ends~
"Okay mates, who should go first?" Jasmine asked. "Zoey, Shawn, Brick, you, and I will go first." Sky said. The other wolves sat down.
Meanwhile on the other side of the court side, Courtney volunteered herself to take charge. "Jo, Rodney, Justin, Leshawna, and yours truly. The rest of you sit." "Fine by me, this will give me time to think up an evil plan." Max said as he crossed his crossed and sat on the bench. Just ion tapped on Courtney's shoulder. "Courtney, can I sit this one out until the challenge is over?" "Why?" "Last time I was here I lost my looks because of injury, I don't wanna go through that again." The grouchy CIT grumbled and answered, "Fine! Sierra, take Justin's place." Sierra got up and Justin sat down next to Dave.
~in the Panther confessional~
"How can I show everyone that I have game with Courtney in charge?!" Dave complained.
~confessional ends~
Dave rose up from the bench and spoke, "Hey, I can take Justin's place?" Courtney laughs at him. "Yeah right, unless this was a challenge on staying clean you are not playing." He sat right down after that, hanging his head with embarrassment.
~in the Panther confessional~
"I know Dave is not much of an athlete but she could've have been nicer to him." Cody commented on Courtney's harsh behavior.
~confessional ends~
Chris sat on the chair and looked around to see both teams are prepared. "Ready! Set! Go!" He blew his air horn to start the first game. Players from both teams grabbed their dodgeball. Jo threw her ball at Sky, but the young female gymnast dodged it successfully and threw hers at the aggressive athlete. Then out of nowhere a green ball with Chris's face on it flew across the room missing Sky. "What in the world?!" She turned to see it was fired by Chef from a control panel. "Dude! Work on your aim!" Chris yelled at Hatchet. Chef grumbled and pressed some buttons. "Stand your ground soldiers." Brick discretely said to his teammates and they nodded in agreement. Courtney looked at her teammates. "Don't just stand there! Take those wolves down!" Sierra narrowed her gaze at Samey.
~in the Panther confessional~
"I don't trust that blond. I know she has been flirting with Cody. So my plan is simple, I help my team win and miss cheerleader goes home and then Cody is all mine." Sierra explained.
~confessional ends~
"For Cody!" Sierra throws her dodgeball at Samey but she missed and hit the wall, it bounced back and knocked herself out. "Sierra is out!" Chris declared. "What?! But Sierra got hit by her own ball!" Courtney exclaimed. "Yes but since it bounced off the Wolves side it counts as friendly fire." Chris chuckled and added, "Besides Samey isn't even playing so that's an automatic disqualification for the super fan." The miffed CIT turned to the other panthers. "Anne Maria, you're up." "No way am I going to risk losing my looks." "Nice to know that someone here understands the importance of one's appearance." Justin commented on Anne Maria's rebuttal which made her blush and smile. Dave rose up quickly. "Let me play." Max pulled Dave by his sweater vest and rose up from his seat. "Forget it, obviously this is the job for evil!" "I thought you didn't want to get involved." "Can't an evil genius make up his mind?" Max asked rhetorically, grabbed a ball, and walked over to join the other players. Chris blew his airhorn again to resume the game. While everyone threw their dodge balls and avoid the occasional obstacles like; random tire swings, logs, water balloons filled with mud, and ping pong balls, Max focused his aim at Mike.
~in the Panther confessional~
"Mike may not be Mal anymore but he possesses the skills of his other personalities; Svetlana's gymnastics, Vito's strength and scrappiness, and Manitoba's survival skills. A great threat indeed to my evil cause. Once I take him down no one will stop me!" Max laugh evilly.
~confessional ends~
Max threw the ball at Mike, but instead he accidentally got Brick. The cadet was out and switched places with Zoey. She threw her ball at Max and got him out. "Curses! Defeated by a red head indie chick!" He bellowed.
By the end of the first game, the Sapphire Wolves won. Everyone took a ten minute break. Courtney started yelling at the Panthers. "I cannot believe we lost!" "Chill Courtney McCranky-pants, we'll win the next one." "But then we need a tie breaker!" "It's better than no game at all right?" Cody said and Courtney gave him an annoyed look, making him shut up. The Wolves were having a bit of a pow wow themselves. "Okay, this time, it will be Mike, Zoey, Brick, Shawn and I." "Wait a minute I think the others should have a chance." Shawn suggested. Sky looked at the others and back. "But we are doing so well." "I agree with Shawn." Mike said. The female gymnast sighed and said, "Fine then; Erin and Gwen switch with Jasmine and Mike." They rose up from their benches and switched. Courtney picked Rodney, Justin, Anne Maria, Jo, and Dave to play. The next game went on for awhile, Dawn sensed something is up with Leshawna's aura as she stared at Zoey as she cheered for Gwen.
~in the Wolf Confessional~
"I have been sensing some extreme negative vibes from Leshawna; some anger and jealously, and mostly sadness. I know we are on opposite teams but I must reach out to her." Dawn said.
~confessional ends~
Sky got Jo out with ease. So far the Wolves were doing good until Rodney got Gwen out. Seeing the goth girl fall made Courtney smile.
~in the Panther confessional~
"It's so good to see my Courtney happy again, she is so pretty when she smiles." Rodney said as he sighed happily.
~confessional ends~
Gwen switched with Samey, and Jo switched with Sierra who volunteered again. The nervous cheerleader was terrified at Sierra's determined yet scary look. They threw their ball at the same time. Samey was safe because the ball missed her again and she got the hyper Cody lover out. Dave took his chance and finally threw the ball and it hit Sky. Everyone gasped at what happened. Sky's eyes bugged out with shock. The second game ended, the score was one to one. The Panthers were totally amped.
~in the Panther confessional~
"Yes! I did it! Yes! Who's got game now Sky?!" Dave taunted.
~confessional ends~
Zoey helped Sky up. "Sky? Are you okay?" But Sky didn't respond, she was still in shock.
~in the wolf confessional~
"I lost...to Dave?!" Sky yelled out and screamed with anger.
~confessional ends~
"Alright players, we got one more game left. Which of you will be victorious?" Chris said.
The third game became chaotic. Dodgeballs were flying everywhere and players kept on switching. Leshawna became vicious with her throws, she took out, Zoey, Jasmine, Mike, and Sam.
Fifteen minutes later, Dawn and Leshawna were the last ones standing. "You are going down Miss aura reader." "Leshawna, the only reason I volunteered to play was to speak to you since you refuse to talk to me earlier. You must not let your jealousy consume your soul otherwise you will go down the path of despair and regret. Just make up with Gwen." Dawn warned her. Leshawna's eyes opened wide and glared at Dawn as she gripped in her ball tight. "The only path you will be taking will be the loser path!" She threw it hard at the gentle nature lover and Dawn got knocked out. The Wolves gasped loudly and sharply. "Dawn!" They ran to her side. "The Pyrite Panthers win!" Chris yelled out. The Panthers cheered out loud for their first victory.
~in the Panther confessional~
"I like to make one thing clear, I am not jealous. My friendship with Gwen ended long ago. Dawn has been meditating way too long." Leshawna said with denial.
~confessional ends~
Later that night, the Sapphire Wolves have their first elimination ceremony at the amphitheater. "Wow, must really stink to lose for the first time. Oh well, you guys were due any day, better now then never. In TDAS, I would hand out the gilded Chris to those who are safe but since this is TDRW, I am sticking with the green hackie sacks. I have ten of them right here, when I call your name I'll you one. The player who does not receive a have sack will leave on the hayride of shame and never come back. The first green hackie sack goes to; Jasmine, Sky, Mike, Zoey, Shawn, Brick, Sam, Gwen, and Erin." Chris looks at Samey and Dawn. "Dawn, you were more concerned about your opponent than winning for your team, definitely a good reason for you to leave. Samey, you have a good aim but...actually I can't think of a good reason for you to go, except maybe to stop you from distracting Cody but then again it was hilarious to see Sierra have an epic fail like that, a good reason for you to stay." "What?! Chris I haven't done anything to either of them!" Samey exclaimed. "The loser going home tonight is...Dawn. So Samey you are safe for now." The host tossed her the last hackie sack. Samey sighed with relief but was sad to see Dawn leaving on the hayride.
A little bit later, Gwen looked around the lot and found Leshawna heading toward Craft's services to join the Panther for a celebratory dinner and grabbed her by the shoulder. "That was low Leshawna." Gwen said, giving her former gal pal a glare so cold that it made Leshawna shiver. "Whatever, none of your friends have game at all, especially Zoey." "You don't even know her. You know what, I think Dawn is right about your jealousy, and I don't like it." Gwen walked away leaving Leshawna alone, with a mixed look of sadness and more jealousy.
"Whoa, I never expected Leshawna to act like that? Will a good meal and some well dserved rest help adjust her attitude? Or will she stay like that? Come back and join us next time."
