Disclaimer: I do NOT own Total Drama.

As per usual in first class Team Amazon were enjoying t provided luxuries. Gwen was sitting separately from the others, Cody and Dawn sat against each other as usual and Heather and Courtney sat in the booth at the front of first class, the queen bee was trying to cover up the bruise, courtesy of Leshawna along with a missing tooth.

"Lookin good." The CIT commented once Heather snapped her powder mirror shut.

The intercom sounded and Chris` voice rang out.

"Brace for landing, we`ve arrived in our next destination…The Amazon…..but the runaway`s a little short." Which in Chris talk meant they were going in for a bumpy ride. Courtney understanding that buckled herself up immediately.

"Team Amazon in the Amazon. That`s gotta bea lucky sign."Gwen commented.

Dawn who had heard that spoke up.

"Be careful Gwen, usually when someone says that they get bad instead of good luck." She said quietly making an observation, making every eye snap to her and Gwen.

"Gosh I hope none of the Amazons this might be lucky for them. That`d be disasteros." The show host chimed in through the intercom laughing evilly afterwards.

….

The ride was as bumpy and more than Chris warned it would be. The plane ended up crashing slightly.

After all the contestants were gathered Chris spoke.

"Welcome to Peru. Birthplace of the mighty Amazon River. This challenge is called the Am-AAAH-zon race. Teams must hike along an ancient Inka trail through the Peruvian jungle all the way to Machu Pichu. Hidden somewhere among the ruins of Machu Pichu a golden treasure awaits discovery. Find the treasure to win first class passage to our next destination. Last team to arrive to Machu Pichu will have to send someone out through the elimination door. And be warned, the jungle contains many vicious insects. Cody, the Legal Department made me well aware of you deadly allergies, but that was before we contacted you for this season, so you he a choise between an EpiPen or… This fedora and whip…."
Chris said Showing an EpiPen in his left arm and the fedora and whip in his right one.

"I choose the whip." Cody simply said as walked up to Chris and took the hat and whip and inspected them. The fedora was a grey color with a band of darker gray wrapped around it. The whip on the other hand was a genuine well made weapon strings of leather woven to make the handle. Cody strapped the whip to his hip and place the hat on his head.

"Whaddya think?" he asked Dawn with an Australian accent, making her giggle.

"Also in the jungle are the Zing Zings, a native tribe who have never encountered modern man and they`re not about to so if you spot a Zing Zing do not make contact." Chris warned as dramatic drums played in the background.

"Will you stop that?!" he yelled to Chief who was making the music with a huge bongo drum.

The large cook crossed his arms, but when the host turned his back he shared a quick smirk with Cody.

"How far is it to Maki PItchet?" The big lovable goof asked.

"Machu Pichu is a hop, skip and a jump from here, plus eighteen hours." The host said making the teenagers groan.

"The jungle is too dangerous travel at night so tams will have to break at dusk and camp along the trail till sunrise." The host said motioning towards the trail.

"And I assume there are no tents?" Alejandro asked

"Correctumundo. Now because the playing area is so vast and dangerous, each team will have a walkie talkie in case of emergency. Teams I wish you good luck. Or at the very least a lack of Death." The host said with a sinister smirk.

…..

"Eeny, meeny Minnie, left?" Lindsay oh so wittly chose when the road parted.

DJ shrugged and the went the afformentioned direction.

"So what do ya think, left? Yeah left, left is good." Tyler said following after his girlfriend.

The Amazons on the other hand had a more difficult time deciding.

"Maybe we should go right?" Gwen suggested.

"No left. Even if it`s wrong, at leas everyone is wrong. Safety in numbers." Courtney tried to bring logic to the decision.

"Let Gwen decide. She`s the one who`s feeling lucky." Heather said making air quithes.

"I said I was sorry." Gwen said only to be interrupted .

"If you are right you`re a hero, if you`re wrong we know who to eliminate." Heather said

"Your parents must love this show, gets you out of the house." Gwen said as she took the right path.

Heather gave her a cool mature response, a.k.a. a raspberry.

….

As they were trekking through the jungle Courtney asked Cody.

"Hey why did you choose the whip instead of the EpiPen?" Cody shrugged.

"One thing I learned from this show is that it is better to be armed in case something happens." They were interrupted by a giant mosquito which had legs big enough to carry a human by the head. It started to swoop down ad carry off an innocent victim to its death when a whip split it in two.

"Like that for example." He said as he continued to trek forwards ignoring the awed looks he was receiving from his teammates.

About a couple of hours later Team Amazon were still trekking through the mountain path when suddenly Cody stopped making all the girls crash into him.

Before they made and protests to why they stopped Cody made the universal sign to be quiet. Putting his pointer finger to his lips if you did not know.

Quetly he pointed to a couple of people who were sitting in front of a fire a few meter ahead of them.

He quietly made his way to try and go around them, but their plans were foiled when they heard a snap behind them and turned to see even more tribe people with spears pointed to wards them.

"Well well lucky us." Heather said giving a pointed glare at Gwen who was fumbling with the walkie talkie.

"Chris, we need help. Chris, Chris" The lid of the walkie talkie popped off. "No batteries." She said in a high pitched squeak.

…..

Chris and Chief were sitting in front of a bonfire, roasting marsh mellows when the hosts cellphone rang off.

"Yes? This is he. You`re what?!"at the sound of someone talking through the other side.

"Yes, yes I understand. Bye" the host hung up

"The actors hired to play Zing Zings can`t show up. The road is blocked. The challenge is going to be so boring now.

They were led to a bunch of huts in front of a stone building that resembled the Mayan sun temple, only thickly covered with vegetation.

The tribe people started to tie them up one by one until they reached Dawn when they took a good look at her one of the shouted something and suddenly they carried her off.

Seeing this Cody started to struggle against his bonds even more than before, but it was useless. They were thrown in a wooden cage with their hands tied behind their backs.

"Great why did they want little miss moon child there?" Heather complained.

Cody on the other hand was quietly trying to reach his back pocket where his pocket knife was. Boy did that bring back memories.

Cody was tossed on the forest ground, his hands tied behind his back. A second later a knifelanded near his face.

"All right kid lets see how you do for the tenth time in a row." A voice said and looking up he saw hi mentor in front of him.

Sitting up right, slightly hunched due to his tied hands.

"Can you please tell me again why you are doing this to me."

The man sighed."Look kid. When it comes to life it`s better to be prepared. And I honestly expected…." He was cut of as Cody stood up his hands untied and a pocket knife in his hand.

"Expected what?" he smirked.

Cody felt the rope snap in his hands, turning to the others he approached them and whispered in a quiet voice.

"Everyone get with our back in the center, I can get us out of here."

As the girls followed what he said he started to cut the ropes.

"Is anyone coming?" he asked out loud as he looked around for guards.

"No one." Courtney said.

Finally all their hands were free and he turned to get them out of the cage by kicking bars and breaking them.

They snuck out only to see Dawn with flowers in her hair, tied to a pole at the small temple.

Cody took the walkie talkie and a flash light from his pocket. He took out the batteries and place them in the walkie talkie. Turning towards the girls he gave the walkie talkie to Courtney and told them.

"Get away from this place and contact Chris. I`ll go save Dawn." He said and turned back toward a hut he saw them place his whip.

After they were a safe distance away Gwen turned on the walkie talkie to try and contact the host.

"Chris, Chris it`s Gwen, the Zing Zingz caught Dawn and Cody`s going to save her. Send help. I repeat send help!"

"Walkie talkies are for emergencies only." The host said but he was starting to feel excited because finaly some excitement.

"But.."Gwen tried to speak only to be interrupted by Chris.

"Okay Team Amazon, remain calm and….." he was in turn interrupted by the 'song time' bell.

"You must be jocking." Heather said glaring at the walkie talkie.

"Do we have to sing backup." Owen`s voice was heard freom the other frequency.

"No this one is all Amazon, but lets make it end with a lithe solo from Heather …and begin."

Not far from them the tribe people around the temple one of them was on a spanish styled guitar and another on a pan flute.

The were playing and dancing around the pole where Dawn was tied and did not even notice cody sneak closer and closer except for the Tied up girl.

Heather was the first to sing.

We should have just gone left. We wouldn't be in this mess!

She sang as she glared at Gwen.

Meanwhile Cody one by one incapacitataed and tied up tribe members.

Courtney was next.

I said so too, but then Gwen chose to go to the left.

Since there were fewer tribe men Cody was openly brawling and knocking them out at this point.

Now if he gets smitten...

Heather sang again with a fearfull expression.

Cody failed to notice a man approach him from behin with a knife until it knicked him on the arm where the buceps is.

His obituary's written!

Courtney followed as they gazed at the direction of the temple.

Cody clutched his arm but continued to fight.

what will we do then?

They had panicked looks on their faces at the thought of losing a teammate permanently.

Cody at this took a strip of the bandages he had left and tied it.

Tied up, rope is no joke!
Spears in our face, get us out of this place.
Ain't having the luck that I anticipated.
Probably means I'm eliminated. Yeah, I'm out!

Gwen finaly decided to participate in the song as she did a quick rap verse.

Almost all of the men ere out cold so he quickly cut the ropes around Dawn and heard more men coming. He grabbed Dawn by the waist and took out his whip , cracked it once and swatted it so that it wrapped around a high banch of a tree and jumped.

O-o-out! Ooh, ooh, yeah. Yeah. Yeah.

Heather sang that solo last and just as she finished Cody swooped down with Dawn safe and sound in his hands.

"Cody. You`re alive!" Courtney called out.

"Yeah, but we better go. Those guys will wake up soon.

They agreed and started running in a mad dash away from the place. The only lucky thing so far was that Dawn had seen Machu Picchu from the top of the temple so they knew which direction they were headed.

When dusk settled the were at the base of a giant tree, the girls had gathered enough firewood to last them the entire night. And Cody upon arrival headed of to get something edible, he returned when they had collected the girewood and place his jacket which had been used as a bag to carry a huge variety of eddable plants and fruits. There were mangos, bananas, peanuts, nutmegs,cocnuts, citruses,pineapple and all kind of berries and some edible roots.

Needless to say the Amazons had a nice Amazonian styled dinner in the Amazon rain forest.

Once they wer finished Cody spoke.

"Why don`t you guys take a break and get some shut eye. I`ll take watch."

"Are you sure?" Dawn asked willing to stay up even though her eyes were dropping from exhaustion and sudden fullness that the food gave. Cody`s eyes softened.

"Yeah, you go ahead its no problem." He said as he leaned next to the tree the fire eliminating the left side of his face.

When he was sure they were asleep the shrugged off his jaket and looked at the torn sleeve of his shirt after he removed the bandage. Taking the shirt off until he was in hi T`shirt. Looking at the cut of his arm he reached for a pocket in his pants and pulled out a small bottle of blue luquid, he sprayed a little on the wound, it stung, which meant the disinfection was working. He took out a new roll of bandages and dressed the wound. Putting on his shirt and jacket he continued to look in the blackness of the jungle that surrounded them.

It was morning when Dawn awoke to see Heather, Courtney and Gwen still asleep and Cody nowhere in sight. Panic over took her.

"Cody? Cody!" She was about to go look for him when she heard the bushes rustle, and in stepped Cody.

"Hey, I went to find water." He said as he handed her a small waterbottle he carried around,

"I had to put iodine in it to purify it, it tastes weird but its good to drink." He said after she took a drink and wrinkled her nose at the weird taste

"Do you think we should wake them up?" He asked motioning towards Heather, Courtney and Gwen.

"Yeah,, the sooner we get out of her the better." Dawn said.

Confession Cam

Dawn- I usually try to spend as much time in the wilderness as I can, but even I am cautious to be here in the jungle all by myself.

They woke the others up and were running towards Machu Picchu.

They got there just in time to see Owen pick up a crystal and destroy the old city.

….

In the elimination room Team Amazon was awaiting judgement but

"Allright Amazons. Are you ready to find out who you chose to eliminate?" chris said as he had a television and a remote.

In the end both gwen and Courtney voted for Heather, Heather for Gwen, Dawn had a bit of reluctance but had gone for Heather in the end and Cody stamped hi own saying he should have watched out better for them when they were trapped. In the end Heather snapped.

"Lets just get this over with!" she said with her arms crossed

"I guess this would be a good time to watch Heather fall out of a plane if this had actuaaaly been an elimination round but it is not! Surprise!"

A gasp was heard in the room from the females.

That night Cody snuck out to the cargo bay once again. He took a small bag of the leftover fruits and nuts and roots he had left and passed it to a small hand.

"Here, you need all the vitamins you can get. Since i`m in Loser Class now I can sneak you some more food than usual."

From the quietness of the room a small voice was heard.

"Thanks eh." And Cody sent a small smile to the person before he left.
