Welcome to another brand new chapter with another brand new challenge! Hope you all enjoy this and on top of that I hope you all have a truly merry Christmas and a happy new year! Without further ado here is the next episode of Total Drama: Blood vs Water!
"Last time on Total Drama Blood vs Water, the contestants battled against each other in the long awaited return of the sleepathon!" Chris narrated as clips of the sleepathon began to play. "In the end it was Sophia who managed to win this challenge for the Happy Hippos thanks to her singing a classic lullaby that definitely wasn't under copyright laws," footage showed Sophia singing as Dawn, Shelly and Anthony passed out. "She sent the Deadly Ducks to elimination where in a shock twist we saw mild mannered Dave leave the island… I doubt anyone will miss him," clips showed Dave being eliminated and launched away from the island.
The scene changed to Chris standing on the docks of the island.
"Twenty campers remain, will they survive another day on this island? Will the Happy Hippos continue winning? Will anyone actually care that Dave is gone? To find out, tune in and watch Total. Drama. Blood vs Water!"
Theme song
The campers were all in the breakfast hall sitting at their teams tables eating the food Chef had prepared for them as the camera zoomed in on the Happy Hippos.
"Can't we get some better food for winning? It just looks so sad and… grey," Sammy said whilst examining the food closely.
"The food here is better than at bootcamp. At least this has some flavour," Brick commented.
"Lets just be happy we won dudes," Geoff said trying to cheer everyone up. "We've still got everyone here and we know about the-"
"Probably not a good idea to mention that," Sophia quickly said cutting Geoff off. "We don't want the other teams knowing about them just yet."
"Sophia's right. If we all make it to the merge we could have a great advantage against the other teams," Sammy said happily.
"Or it means everyone here has a better chance of finding them first and using it on each other here," Anthony told Sammy.
"OMG why would anyone do that? We're all so nice here and like each other so much!" Hannah exclaimed with joy
"If we lose we are gonna have to get rid of someone, whether you like it or not," Anthony told Hannah in a monotone voice.
"We shall give an elegant performance worthy of five stars and keep up our glorious winning streak!" Griff told everyone in his theatrical way.
"I'm with Griff, if we can win one there's no reason we can't win them all," Sophia said.
"You do realise that's almost impossible right?" Anthony asked Sophia.
"Anythings possible if you put your mind to it dude," Geoff told his young brother.
"It could happen Anthony. If I can stay awake for over 60 hours and survive then I'm sure we can keep winning," Sophia said cheerfully.
"Since you're both so confident, care to make this interesting?" Anthony asked Sophia and Geoff.
"No way dude, not again," Geoff told his brother. "Last time I had to do one of these wagers with you I had to not party for a month!"
"The spring of 2013. Good times," Anthony said fondly reminiscing.
"Sure I'll take the bet, what do you wager?" Sophia asked.
"If we lose the next challenge you have to do my dishes for the rest of the competition," Anthony told Sophia whilst offering his hand.
"Deal, but if we don't lose then you have to do my dishes," Sophia replied whilst shaking his hand.
"If I win the game for us then I get chocolate!" Hannah exclaimed.
"That's not how it works Hannah," Sammy told her.
"Can I just get some chocolate then?" Hannah asked sweetly.
(Confessional: Geoff)
"Its awesome that mine and Bridge's siblings are getting along," Geoff told the camera. "I just hope that Sophia doesn't be more like Anthony dude. Like my bros so moody and angry but Sophia's so sweet and happy… I know which one I'd prefer."
(Confessional: Hannah)
"Can I just get some chocolate please?" Hannah begged. "All I want is something sweet and sugary! I miss Dave!"
The camera panned over to The Rockin' Roosters sitting at their table where Bridgette noticed that Dawn seemed to be struggling.
"Dawn are you okay? You look exhausted," Bridgette told Dawn.
"I couldn't sleep last night. Mother Earth allowed her wonderful creations to keep me awake through the night," Dawn replied.
"What do you mean?" Cyber asked.
"Owls, birds, beavers and bears kept me awake. Too much noise from such wonderful animals," Dawn told Cyber.
"If you want the animals to be quiet just place a stone your cabin's window. It keeps animals away from the house," Cyber explained to Dawn.
"Umm how do you know that?" Bridgette asked.
"Future Athletes Summer Camp, they had rocks on each window and it kept animals away. They just seem to think its this weird place they shouldn't go," Cyber explained.
"I was at that camp a few years ago," Eva told Cyber.
"Wait, were you the terrifying she-devil who broke fifteen peoples arms in a day and made six of the coaches quit?" Cyber questioned.
"What did you just call me?" Eva asked Cyber giving him a menacing glare.
"Not what I called you, that's what every other camper called you," Cyber explained to her.
"Amigo, I would be quiet if you want to keep your face like that," Alejandro told Cyber.
"Listen to pretty boy over there. I can make you look like my sister if I wanted to," Eva threatened Cyber.
"That's enough," Jayden said getting up and slamming her fists on the table. "At the end of the last challenge we were all getting along and I want that to continue. So Eva cool it with the threats and Cyber try to think before you speak."
(Confessional: Eva)
"I know I have anger issues but If you insult me I will destroy you," Eva told the camera. "Cyber better learn to speak when he is spoken to, otherwise I might have to rearrange that pretty little face of his."
(Confessional: Cyber)
"Eva threatens to beat me up, yet I am still in the wrong somehow," Cyber complained. "I get it. I shouldn't of said what the other campers said, but she didn't need to threaten to make my face look like Shelly's! Seriously that was harsh."
"I'm sorry for that Eva," Cyber apologised. "My brain isn't connected to my mouth as my mother used to say."
"Whatever, just don't do it again," Eva told Cyber who was about to say something but stopped himself and accepted that it was as close to an apology as he was going to get.
The camera panned to The Deadly Ducks where they'd serrated themselves into two groups, one end of the table with Shelly, Yukari and Isaiah and the other with Heather, Jose and Amy.
"Omg can we please get some better food?" Amy questioned. "Like I've had better stuff at high school and that's saying something."
"Look lets stop talking about the food and actually talk about something important," Heather started. "Yucky, Shelly and Isaiah are obviously in an alliance and because of them Dave is out of the game."
"Do you truly see a problem with that?" Jose questioned.
"If they had enough sense and voted for one of us we would not be here right now," Heather told Jose with pure anger across her face.
"You are correct but if it wasn't for you going rogue we would've had it at a tie," Jose explained. "If anything this just means you should listen to me."
"Excuse me, if you'd done what I said Yucky would be out right now and we could be running this team. If anything you should be listening to me!"
"You keep telling yourself that," Jose told Heather with a smirk which infuriated Heather even more.
"Both of you are wrong," Amy butted in causing both Jose and Heather to stop and look at her. "Me and Jose should've voted for Yucky but you, Heather, should've voted with me and Jose. Next time we work together, got it!"
"Yes mam!" Heather and Jose replied quickly.
(Confessional: Heather)
"That Amy girl is really growing on me," Heather complimented her. "She's fearless, ruthless and the perfect ally. Jose on the other hand is a worse version of Alejandro."
"So, how are you feeling being a statistical improbability Shelly?" Yukari asked with a slight smirk.
"Fifty percent dread and fifty percent relief," Shelly replied.
"Why dread? You're safe, I thought you'd be ecstatic since the numbers were against you," Yukari said.
"The numbers are still against me. There was a 1 in 10,000 chances of me surviving and the only reason that happened was because of Isaiah," Shelly explained.
"We do really owe you Isaiah. Why did you even come to us anyway?" Yukari asked.
"My ego needed rubbing and those two faced cretins needed to be taken down a peg or two," Isaiah quickly responded.
"Statistically speaking my chances of survival would increase if we had you on our side 100 percent of the time," Shelly replied.
"What do you say Isaiah? Join me and Shelly in an alliance?" Yukari asked in the nicest tone she could muster up.
"I'll consider it," Isaiah responded.
"That sounds like a resounding no," Shelly replied. "Well at least we might survive this challenge."
"Trust me I'm making sure we win it," Yukari told Shelly as she stabbed her spoon into her food.
(Confessional: Shelly)
"Statistically Yukari and I will only last through this show for another four episodes max," Shelly stated. "I doubt even she can make us win this challenge, especially since I was the longest survivor in our last challenge."
Chris, Chef and an intern now entered the canteen with his signature wicked grin across his face.
"Campers, I hope you're all rested now because today you will be battling against each other in an all out game of war," Chris told them all.
"Sir, war is not something to call a game," Brick told him.
"Don't really care pee pee cadet," Chris insulted Brick who's face turned bright red with embarrassment. "Now today you will all be feasting like kings and queens, that's right you're having your final meal!"
"Why did you make us eat this sludge then and what final meal?" Jayden asked.
"To keep you guessing and because before death every person deserves a final meal," Chris replied. "Any who, today you will be playing a classic game of capture the flag. Each team will be given a castle and a flag to defend against the opposing teams. The first team to captures an opposing teams flag wins and get a special treat but the first team who gets their flag captured loses and faces the dreaded bonfire ceremony!"
"I kind of zoned out after you said final meal dude," Geoff told Chris.
"I don't care if its my final meal, I'll take anything over this," Yukari added in.
"I'd be quiet if I were you," Chef threatened Yukari who backed off straight away.
"Now if the Happy Hippos would follow me, the Rockin' Roosters follow Chef and the last losing team the Deadly Ducks can follow the lowly intern," Chris told everyone.
(Confessional: Heather)
"I'm not sure what I'm more annoyed about," Heather began. "The fact that I might be dying today or the fact Chris made us follow an intern!"
The scene changed to Chris and the Happy Hippos standing inside a grand cardboard castle with a feast in-front of them.
"Welcome Happy Hippos to your new fortress for the duration of this challenge," Chris announced. "Here you will enjoy your bountiful feast before you charge into battle so I would use this time wisely if I was you."
"You mean eat as much food as possible right?" Geoff asked.
"OMG there is so much food! Can we just eat already?" Hannah whined.
"Fine, ignore me giving you helpful advice and all. Just go and eat already," Chris told them.
"So you're saying we can go and eat the food?" Sammy asked sweetly.
"Just go and eat already," Chris said in an annoyed fashion.
"Marvellous! A feast for the champions to revel in!" Griff exclaimed.
The camera cut to Chef and the Rockin' Roosters inside another grand cardboard castle with a feast in-front of them.
"Here's your castle and here's your food, just dig in and don't be an idiot," Chef told everyone.
"Not exactly the hosting type are you Chef?" Alejandro teased him.
"I'm not, but I'm definitely the beating you up type of Chef though," Chef said getting as close to Alejandro as possible.
"Point well taken, now if you'll excuse me I must join my team," Alejandro replied as he moved quickly away from Chef and stood next to Bridgette.
"I thought you'd of learnt its not good to insult Chef by now," Bridgette told him as she made her way to the feast.
"Tragically Chef is immune to my charm now, like most people on this island," Alejandro replied.
"Gee, I wonder why that is?" Bridgette said sarcastically.
"As I said before, I was raised this way. The sooner people accept that, the better," Alejandro told Bridgette as he walked by her.
(Confessional: Bridgette)
"I refuse to believe that you are based on your background," Bridgette began. "I hate Alejandro but if he really wants to change then I want to help him… As long as he doesn't flirt with me again."
The camera cut to the Deadly Ducks enjoying their feast with them separated into their two teams.
"My fellow teammates," Jose said as he stood up from the table with a glass in his hand. "We must use our time here wisely and come up with a strategy. We can not afford any mistakes like we made in the last challenge."
"Like you pretending to be asleep?" Amy asked.
"Yes, thank you for that Amy," Jose replied in an annoyed tone. "If we plan now and develop a strategy we can make sure we succeed in this challenge and I will take the helm as our captain."
"Umm why should you be captain?" Heather interjected quickly.
"Because my dear I have lead my high school paintball team to multiple victories thanks to my keen strategic thinking," Jose explained in a smug way.
"Yeah I don't think so Jose," Heather told him. "You may have some experience but after last challenge we can't trust you."
"Shall we take it to a vote then?" Jose suggested. "Who would like me to lead us into battle?"
"And who wants me to lead us?" Heather quickly added.
"I'd rather not have either of you considering how idiotic you both are," Shelly told them both.
"Honestly I could kill myself by climbing to your ego and jumping down to you IQ," Isaiah said.
"I'm with them here," Amy added. "We don't need either of you as a leader."
"Then what, might I ask, do you all suggest?" Jose questioned the rest of his team.
"Statistically speaking us working together will provide us with better results," Shelly suggested.
"Urgh as much as I hate it, I agree with the walking calculator over there," Amy said.
"Then tragically we shall work together…" Jose sighed. "What are your suggestions?"
"We need to split into two teams, one defence and one attacking with 50 percent of us in both," Shelly told everyone.
"Who should be on each team though?" Amy asked.
"Jose has experience which means we'll have a 15 percent higher chance of succeeding with him in the field," Shelly explained.
"Yukari's athletic so she can do it as well," Heather added which caused Yukari to look at her with shock. "What? I'm only going to be nice to you when its for my own gain, duh."
"Finally it should be Amy. She's a cheerleader so is quite athletic and would be able to give us a high vantage point if I threw her in the air," Jose explained trying to get Amy with him.
"Agreed, which leaves Shelly, Isaiah and Heather to defend," Amy added. "You guys need to figure a strategy out once the games starts and we'll do the same."
"Isn't it smart to do it now though?" Shelly asked.
"We've got time, besides we need to eat this food!" Amy told her as she began eating again and soon everyone joined her, except for Yukari who remained quiet.
(Confessional: Yukari)
"I don't like working together with Heather or anyone like her," Yukari explained. "The fact I'm now meant to be doing that with two clones of her is my own personal idea of hell. Once I'm out of this castle those two are on their own."
The camera cut to the Happy Hippos sitting around the table eating all the food they could, except for Griff who was looking like he wanted to say something.
"Hey," Sophia greeted him as she put down some of her food. "Are you okay Griff? You've been surprisingly quiet."
"Oh, I am marvellous my dear but shouldn't we begin the rehearsal for our captivating show?" Griff asked trying to get Sophia on his side.
"You mean come up with a strategy?" Sophia questioned.
"Absolutely! Any great play has to have hours of rehearsal for it to become a true masterpiece!" Griff exclaimed
"Griff is right," Brick interjected. "War games like this require planning and key strategy and as the only person with military experience I would like to lead."
"Makes sense, what should we do then captain Brick?" Geoff asked.
"With capture the flag it is always good to have a strong defence," Brick stated. "I say we have the majority of us stay back and only one person goes out to attack."
"OMG can I go out and attack! I wanna beat up those stupid Deadly Ducks!" Hannah yelled angrily.
"Umm I think that you're of more use in defence Hannah," Brick told her.
"Won't that mean we have less chance of winning though?" Sammy questioned.
"Yeah but we don't need to win. We just need to make sure our flag isn't captured," Geoff added.
"That's the trick. As long as we remain safe we can be safe," Brick explained.
"Don't we want to win though?" Griff asked.
"Unless you have a bet based on if you win," Anthony teased Sophia who's eyes quickly widened.
"Griff is right! We should make sure we win, especially if Chris gives the winning team a prize it could be something really valuable," Sophia reasoned with everyone.
"Sophia's got a point, if there's already immunity idols what else could Chris have?" Sammy backed up Sophia.
"A strong defence is still required," Brick told everyone. "We could send out two people and leave five behind? It would mean we've got a reasonable attack force and I will happily lead that force."
"Who will go with you though?" Sophia asked.
"ME ME ME ME ME! OH PLEASE BE ME!" Hannah squealed much to Brick's distain.
"What about Geoff? He's strong, athletic and is really fast," Sophia told Brick.
"I think me and Sammy should be the attacking force," Brick said. "She's small, nimble and her cheerleading experience could come in handy. Geoff is the type of leader we need back here to man our defence."
"Thanks dude, I won't let you down," Geoff said standing up and doing a mock salute.
(Confessional: Brick)
"Finally I can prove myself to everyone back home," Brick began. "Pee pee cadet is no more, I will lead my team to victory. Who knows, I might even get moved up a rank. Private Cadet McArthur, has a nice ring to it doesn't it?"
(Confessional: Anthony)
"Brick's a good guy but there's not a chance he and Sammy are going to win this challenge for us," Anthony told the camera. "Sophia will be washing my dishes up in no time."
The scene changed to the Rockin' Roosters who were all standing up away from the food.
"Why can't we eat again?" Cyber asked.
"Because we need to strategise and when we win, that's when we can eat," Jayden told them all.
"It might be wiser for us to eat and have energy, rather than starving us," Alejandro told her.
"Winners get food, losers get eliminated," Jayden replied.
(Confessional: Noah)
"Her being nice didn't last long did it?" Noah said.
"I'd rather eat, lose and vote you off," Noah told her.
"I'm with Noah here, we've had Chef's slop for so long now, lets just eat some good food," Bridgette added.
"Fine, you can all eat when we have a strategy in place and it has to be one that we can win this challenge with. Got it?" Jayden asked everyone.
"Someone just come up with something so we can eat," Noah said.
"What about you Cyber?" Jayden asked him. "You're athletic and smart there must be something you can think of."
"Well… ummm… We could focus just on our attack. As they say a good offence is a good defence," Cyber said quickly.
"That's true in soccer but not so much in a game of capture the flag," Alejandro replied. "Defence is crucial in this game."
"Yes but if we attack hard and fast before anyone can think of what to do we can win quickly and eat too," Cyber added folding his arms.
"Cyber makes sense," Jayden told him. "We go out with a deadly attack force. Me, Eva, Dawn, Cyber and Noah will attack. Bridgette and Alejandro you will defend."
"You consider Noah a deadly attack force?" Bridgette questioned. "Also do me and Alejandro really have to be back here together?"
"Trust me, I've got plans for him and yes, yes you do," Jayden replied with a grin.
"I'd rather stay here. Less chance of me being mutilated and all," Noah told her.
"You can either come with the attack force or not eat now. Its your choice," Jayden replied.
"Bribing me with food? Real original and smart," Noah told her.
"I know. Now all of you got eat, we'll attack the minute this trial starts," Jayden told everyone as she approached the table full of food.
(Confessional: Alejandro)
"Jayden seems truly intent on making this team bond, especially me and Bridgette," Alejandro said. "The only thing we're bonding over is our distaste for her, not exactly what she wanted I presume."
(Confessional: Jayden)
"I'm trying to be nice but I need to be harsh with them," Jayden told the camera. "They can eat all they want now but we needed a strategy in place."
"Can we all agree she's a tyrant?" Alejandro asked everyone.
"She's just so… mean!" Bridgette replied.
"She's not so bad. Her aura shines with a marvellous blue," Dawn complimented Jayden.
"Its about time someone pushed you lot. So what she's harsh, get over it," Eva told everyone.
"CAMPERS!" Chris exclaimed from the speakers catching everyone off guard. "Your challenge will begin in 5… 4… 3… 2… 1… GO!"
"No time for food now guys! Eva, Dawn, Noah, Cyber lets go," Jayden said running away from the food and dragging along all her followers with her.
"Oh yippee, I get to run," Noah said as he and everyone else except for Bridgette and Alejandro left the castle.
"Now that la cucaracha is gone, I'm going to eat," Alejandro told Bridgette as he went to the food.
"Don't you think we should figure out how to defend the place?" Bridgette questioned.
"The challenge has just started, we've got plenty of time before the others arrive," Alejandro told her as he sat down to eat. "I'm going to eat some nutritious food before going back to Chef's wonderfully bland delicacies."
"Won't Jayden, you know, kill you?" Bridgette questioned Alejandro.
"Quite possibly. All I know is she is currently digging her own grave so I do not think I should worry," Alejandro replied.
"Don't forget I tell you who to vote for," Bridgette replied smugly hoping to dent Alejandro's plan.
"I never forget. Two votes against me is no worry when Jayden's around," Alejandro said smugly. "Now come and eat before we have to actually work."
Bridgette looked back at the opening to see if Jayden was anywhere and reluctantly sat down and began to eat with Alejandro, before looking at him.
"This is doesn't mean I like you," Bridgette told Alejandro.
The camera cut to Amy, Jose and Yukari walking through the woods.
"Now we must be smart here and figure out where the flags are before we attack," Jose said.
"That's common sense. How could we even attack if we didn't know where the flags are?" Yukari replied with an annoyed tone in her voice.
"Omg just be quiet Yucky, no one cares what you think," Amy told Yukari. "Let's just find where the stupid flags are so this is over."
"As usual Amy has been a shining light on this dire situation," Jose complimented her. "Now come Yukari, if you must be stuck with us then at least be quiet and try to be useful."
"Try to be useful? I beat both of you in the last challenge. You two are about as useful as two plants. Hell at least the plants would be smarter than you," Yukari fired back at Jose.
"You beat us in the last challenge, so what? We still lost and had to get rid of someone so you were just as useless as us… wait," Amy told her
"Amy is correct. Unless you won us the challenge then your achievement is nothing, a lot like you. Just nothing," Jose insulted her.
"I am not nothing!" Yukari yelled at Jose getting into his face.
"Oh I appear to have struck a nerve. Do you not like being called a nothing? Even though you are one," Jose replied smiling down at Yukari.
"I dare you to say it one more time," Yukari threatened Jose.
"You. Are. Nothing," Jose told her before he was swiftly kneed in the crown jewels by Yukari.
"You two can do whatever you want but I am out of here," Yukari yelled as she stormed out.
"Good! We might actually win this challenge without you!" Amy yelled back. "Geez, how could someone like Heather have that as a sister."
"Moma." Jose said holding onto his crown jewels.
(Confessional: Amy)
"What a loser, like seriously how is someone like that even allowed on this show," Amy complained. "I know you have low standards because Samey is here but come on!"
The scene changed to Geoff, Anthony, Sophia, Griff and Hannah all beginning to figure out how to defend the castle.
"Okay guys we need to figure out how to keep out flag safe, any ideas?" Geoff asked everyone.
"The entrance is the main stage! We must get our best leading actors there!" Griff exclaimed.
"I'm down with that dude, you and me are gonna rock that entrance!" Geoff cheered.
"We should have someone keeping watch as well," Sophia suggested.
"I'm already on it!" Hannah yelled from on top of the castle wall.
"How did you get up there dude?" Geoff asked her.
"I don't know! But I'm happy up here!" Hannah replied.
"So I guess Hannah's keeping watch, now we just need to guard the flag," Sophia said.
"That's you and Anthony's job dude," Geoff told her whilst putting his arm around his brother.
"Get off of me," Anthony told Geoff as he walked over to the flag.
(Confessional: Geoff)
"Me and Anthony have always had a frosty relationship," Geoff began. "I've seen Bridge and Sophia be so close and I kinda just want that for us… Dude seems to be bonding more with Sophia than he is me."
"Why'd you say that to Geoff?" Sophia asked Anthony as she and him stood guard of the pole.
"Its complicated, you wouldn't understand," Anthony replied brushing off Sophia's question.
"I'm sure I can try," Sophia replied. "I know you don't like people getting in your business but I want to help."
"You're right, I don't like people getting in my business, so maybe you could stop doing that," Anthony suggested as he sat down next to the pole. "Me and Geoff aren't close and we never will be. We're not like you and Bridgette and we aren't going to be."
"Anythings possible though," Sophia replied as she bent down and put her hand on his shoulder.
"Not everything, just stay out of this okay?" Anthony replied
"Okay, but I'm here if you need to talk," Sophia told him as she stood up and walked away as Anthony looked back at her and pondered.
The scene changed to Brick and Sammy walking through the woods together.
"Do you have any idea where the other castles could be Brick?" Sammy asked.
"In these games they are usually within running distance from our base of operations," Brick explained. "I am sure we will come across it any moment now."
"Okay, but what're we going to do when we find one? Do we just attack it?" Sammy asked again.
"We must first do surveillance, gather all necessary information and decide the best course of action. Your cheer skills will be excellent for gathering information," Brick complimented her.
"Gee, thanks Brick I-Hey wait! I think I see one of the castles!" Sammy exclaimed as she ran forward to see the main castle with Brick just behind her.
"Great spot mam, you'd make a fine private," Brick complimented her.
(Confessional: Sammy)
"Can I just say I have never received this much praise in my life!" Sammy cheered. "Brick is just such a great guy and Its so great not having Amy around!"
"Have you ever been thrown into the air as a cheerleader?" Brick asked.
"A few times in routines, why?" Sammy replied.
"Because I can throw you in the air and we can get a full aerial view," Brick suggested as he bent down and cupped his hands together. "Are you ready?"
"I guess, just be careful with the branches," Sammy said as she put her feet in Brick's hands.
"Okay, 3, 2, 1," Brick counted down as he threw Sammy into the air and then caught her as she fell back down and became slightly dazed. "Did you see anything?"
"Uhhh," Sammy stammered as she looked up at Brick. "I saw three people… I think. I couldn't tell who they were."
"I'll throw you up again, try and see who they are and where they are," Brick told Sammy as he got back into his crouching position.
"Got it," Sammy replied as Brick threw her into the air again and caught her as she came down again. "I saw who it was! Heather, Shelly and Isaiah, they were just standing around doing nothing, like at all."
"Perfect! Mam, I know exactly what we're doing," Brick told her as he began to walk with Sammy still in his arms.
"Umm, could you put me down?" Sammy asked
The camera cut to Jayden, Eva and Cyber running through the woods with Dawn and Noah lagging behind them by some distance.
"Noah and Dawn keep up! I can't have you guys behind when we attack," Jayden complained as she slowed down to a halt with Eva and Cyber doing the same.
"Sorry we're not all athletes!" Noah yelled back as he walked over to them with Dawn. "The only exercise I've ever done is running out of money!"
"You better get training then," Eva told him.
"Exercise is good for you Noah, you might even find it fun," Cyber said trying to encourage him.
"Drenching myself in my own sweat, getting severely out breath and having no intellectual gain? Yeah sounds like the best day ever," Noah replied sarcastically.
"Well get used to it, we need to find one of the castles and the best way to do that is running," Jayden told him.
"You're kidding right?" Noah asked.
"You got a better idea?" Eva questioned Noah.
"How about you just look to you right and see the castle next to you," Noah told them to which they all turned around to see the large castle.
"Good job Noah," Jayden complimented him. "Okay, Dawn can you talk to any of the animals around here?"
"Talk to animals? This isn't a Disney movie," Noah said.
""Yes, Jayden I will go find one now and Noah. All of mother earth's creatures have a voice, you just have to listen," Dawn told Noah as she walked away from him.
"Let me guess you paint with all the colours of the wind to Pocahontas?" Noah asked sarcastically.
"You'd be surprised what she can do," Jayden told Noah. "If it wasn't for her animal talk I wouldn't of found the box in the first challenge."
"I'll take your word for it," Noah replied.
(Confessional: Noah)
"I'm working with morons who think someone can talk to animals," Noah complained. "I'd be better off on a team by myself."
As Dawn approached the trees a squirrel came down and leaped onto her shoulder.
"Well hello there little one, would you be able to help me and my friends?" Dawn asked the critter to which it nodded. "Do you know who is in that castle?"
"We're really putting our trust in a squirrel?" Noah asked.
"I can't believe this is really happening," Eva agreed with Noah.
"Trust me on this. Have I been wrong before?" Jayden asked.
"Do you want a list?" Noah questioned her.
"My friends, I know who is in the castle," Dawn told everyone as she walked back over. "Geoff, Hannah, Griff, Anthony and Sophia are all in there."
"Five on five? A fair fight then," Jayden pondered. "Okay everyone, its time to storm the place, no hesitation. We take them head on."
"Or we could actually have some strategy and be smart," Noah told Jayden.
"We won't need one against them. Griff is useless, Hannah is a kid in a teenagers body, Geoff's a moron and Sophia and Anthony are weaklings. If we can't take them now then I need to work you guys a lot harder," Jayden told them all.
"Your expectations are too high for us," Noah told her.
"They're too low," Eva added. "I could beat them by myself."
"Of course you could," Noah replied sarcastically.
(Confessional: Eva)
"I like Noah, he's the closest thing I have to a friend here," Eva started. "But he needs to learn to keep quiet. Let the athletes do the work and just watch."
The camera cut to Heather, Isaiah and Shelly all sitting around the flag looking extremely bored.
"Urgh why did I have to be left here with you losers," Heather complained. "Its like sitting at the losers table in high school again."
"What makes you think we were at the losers table?" Shelly asked annoyed by Heather.
"You're ugly, have glasses, a terrible sense of fashion and are annoy me like rash. Isaiah is quiet and about as interesting as a dish rag," Heather insulted them both.
"I would love to insult you but I'm afraid I won't do as well as nature did," Isaiah replied.
"I wasn't insulting you, I was describing you," Heather retorted.
"The statistics were right, we lasted 10 minutes and 28 seconds before we ended up fighting again," Shelly told them both.
"Can you just shut ups with the statistics? Seriously no one cares," Heather complained. "Jose was right, I should've sent you home last night."
"The numbers were not in my favour then and they're not now," Shelly said slightly deflated. "But the numbers will turn in my favour again, especially with you around Heather."
"What's that supposed to mean?" Heather asked in an angry tone.
"That you, as usual, will be your own demise in this game," Shelly explained. "Statistically you will leave the competition sooner rather than later. You only have a 2.5568 percent chance of even making it to the merge."
"Do you even know who I am?!" Heather yelled at Shelly before noticing Brick standing in-front of the door to the castle. "Stop wet pants over there!"
Shelly and Isaiah looked over to see Brick and they all began to run towards him. Brick stood his ground waiting for them to get closer and then began taking steps back away from the castle and soon began to run away as they all chased him. Meanwhile Sammy ran out of the bushes, through to the castle, grabbed the flag and began to run back to her teams castle.
"Yes! It worked!" Sammy cheered as she ran away.
(Confessional: Brick)
"A simple case of misdirection," Brick began to explain. "Whilst I lured all of the defenders away, Sammy could capture the flag with no threat level. This is what they teach you in basic training."
"Ha, nice try pee pee cadet!" Heather laughed as her, Shelly and Isaiah all pinned Brick to the ground. "You're gonna have to do better than that."
"Oh my, I guess you guys are just so much smarter than me," Brick mockingly complimented them.
"Wait, why are you saying it like that?" Shelly questioned him.
"Just saying, you might want to look at your flag," Brick suggested with a grin as Heather, Shelly and Isaiah all looked behind to see that the flag in their castle was gone.
"What did you do with our flag you twerp?" Heather asked Brick as she turned back to look at him.
"Sammy's got it and I'm pretty sure she's far away by now," Brick bragged before Heather shoved his head into the dirt.
"Isaiah go and find some vines," Heather told him. "We may as well keep this soldier captive."
The camera cut to Geoff and Griff standing guard of their castle entrance.
"So dude, you seem pretty tight with my bro," Geoff began. "Has he talked about me at all?"
"Why do you ask my good man?" Griff asked.
"No reason, just curious," Geoff replied quickly before adding more. "Well actually I just want to know why he hates me, thought he might've told you."
"Tragically my fellow arts man has not mentioned you in our encounters," Griff told Geoff. "Would like for me to dive deeper and uncover more information?"
"You'd do that? That'd be sweet bro," Geoff replied offering Griff a fist bump which Griff accepted.
"It shall be a marvellous performance filled with wonder!" Griff exclaimed.
(Confessional: Griff)
"I've already got Anthony and Sophia on my side," Griff bragged. "If I simply get Anthony to tell me why he doesn't like Geoff then he will be in my debt. These peasants are all too easy to play."
"ALERT! ALERT!" Hannah screamed from atop the castle. "Army of people approaching!"
"Do you know who it is?" Geoff asked.
"Ummm I see a girl with a monobrow," Hannah replied causing Geoff's eyes to widen.
"Eva… EVA! Everyone, man your stations and prepare to fight!" Geoff screamed as everyone jumped into action and prepared for the fight. "Dudes… if Eva kills us all then I just want you to know that its been an honour."
"She can't be that bad," Sophia reassured Geoff. "Can she?"
"She killed a Sasquatch and wore its feet as boots," Geoff told Sophia.
"But she won't do that to us… Right?" Sophia asked in fear.
"Jokes on her, my feet would make terrible shoes," Anthony joked before Eva came through and knocked Geoff and Griff to the ground.
"Give us the flag or I'll tear your arm off and slap you with it," Eva threatened everyone.
"Not today Eva!" Geoff yelled as he jumped and grabbed Eva's right arm.
"Get off of me now!" Eva yelled as she began waving her arm trying to get Geoff off and eventually began beating him against the wall of the castle.
"Dawn, Cyber move forward!" Jayden yelled as they both charged forward.
"Time to become a true leading man!" Griff exclaimed as he tackled Cyber to the floor.
"Cyber seriously?" Jayden asked whilst face palming herself. "The theatre kid is useless!"
"You say that when he's tackling you!" Cyber yelled back.
(Confessional: Cyber)
"Where did that come from?" Cyber asked. "That Griff dude has got more strength than I gave him credit for… I'm kind of embarrassed about that."
"Try and be more useful! Dawn get the flag!" Jayden told her.
"It will be my pleasure," Dawn replied as she stood in front of Anthony and Sophia. "I'm sorry my friends but would it be possible for me to take your flag?"
"I think you know that's not happening," Anthony told Dawn.
"I'm sorry but I must have it," Dawn replied as she tried to grab the flag only to have Sophia grab her and the two began too struggle with them both eventually falling onto the floor and struggling with one another.
"If you want to do anything right you have to do it yourself," Jayden told herself.
"Nice to know you have faith in me," Noah told her.
"Considering what you're like, do you blame me?" Jayden asked.
"Oh gee, I'm just brimming with confidence right now. I feel like I could take on the world," Noah replied sarcastically with his arms folded.
"Whatever," Jayden brushed him off as she began to run to the flag with only Anthony guarding it. "You sure you want to try this art freak?"
"Can't think of any better insults?" Anthony asked. "I expected more from an overrated athlete."
"Overrated? If it wasn't for me our Olympic team would've failed," Jayden retorted.
"Keep telling yourself that," Anthony replied and before he knew it Jayden was jumping on top of him and pinning him down.
"Take that back before I make you!" Jayden yelled at Anthony.
"Make me then," Anthony replied. "I've survived worse torture than whatever you throw at me."
"FIGHT! FIGHT! FIGHT!" Hannah yelled on top of the castle with glee.
(Confessional: Noah)
"Four people fighting, one girl watching the fight from above and me doing nothing," Noah said. "Its like when mine and Emma's parents met."
Noah began to walk through the chaos with nobody paying any attention to him. He grabbed the flag and the proceeded to walk out of the castle without anybody paying attention to him.
"I'm working with idiots," Noah complained as he continued to walk away with the flag in his hand.
The camera cut to Bridgette and Alejandro sitting down at the table with their stomachs filled with food. Alejandro had his feet up on the table and was leaning back on his chair.
"So now we've eaten the food are we going to actually work?" Bridgette asked Alejandro. "The other teams must be close by by now."
"Yes we will my dear Bridgette," Alejandro replied getting out of his chair.
"Don't call me dear… ever," Bridgette told Alejandro as she got out of her chair. "What do we do then? I mean you are the king of strategy or whatever Jayden called you."
"A simple perimeter defence is all we'll need," Alejandro said.
"Perimeter defence?" Bridgette questioned.
"We simply stand around the flag to stop anybody from grabbing it without our knowledge," Alejandro explained to Bridgette. "We both take a side each with our vision watching the sides."
"That's actually not a bad plan," Bridgette replied. "Who's going to watch the door though?"
"I'll be watching the door with my back to the flag and you will be guarding the rear," Alejandro told her as he stood in front of the flag to watch the door. "All angles will be covered."
"Okay then," Bridgette said as she stood behind Alejandro and they were both quiet for a few seconds until Bridgette spoke up again. "So, I've kind of been thinking about what you said in the last challenge, about how you were raised to be like this."
"Let me guess, you still believe there's hope for me?" Alejandro said. "You need to stop with that fantasy."
"No matter who you are everyone has good in them," Bridgette told him. "You are who you are, not who your parents are."
"My parents are both politicians who have cheated and lied their way into office. Now let me guess, your parents are very kind and calm people, both love the ocean, love surfing, love animals and are vegetarian," Alejandro said to Bridgette who remained quiet for a few moments. "I presume your silence means I am correct?"
"You're both right and wrong," Bridgette sighed. "My parents love the ocean, surfing, animals and are vegetarian."
"But they aren't kind people?" Alejandro asked slightly shocked by what Bridgette was implying.
"Lets not talk about it. All I know is that you're not who your parents are… No matter what they say," Bridgette told Alejandro before going quiet.
(Confessional: Alejandro)
"There might actually be a reason why Bridgette so strongly believes I'm not who my parents are," Alejandro told the camera. "The way she went quiet once she began talking about her parents. There's more to her than meets the eye."
The scene changed to Jose and Amy continuing to walk through the jungle.
"Omg, like how haven't we found a castle yet," Amy complained.
"We will soon find the castle my dear friend. We must remain faithful," Jose told Amy.
"I'll be faithful when we actually find something. Like where even are we now?" Amy asked.
"If I am honest I do not know," Jose admitted.
"Seriously? I'm beginning to think I should've gone with Yucky, like what have you even done so far except cheat?" Amy asked.
"If it wasn't for me you wouldn't even be on this team so i would be quiet if I were you," Jose told Amy with an annoyed tone.
"Ha, I'd of been just fine without you," Amy replied before seeing Sammy running towards them with a flag in her hand. "Hey! What's Samey doing with a flag?"
"Hmmm, that gives me a idea," Jose chuckled to himself as he grabbed Amy and hid in the bushes.
(Confessional: Jose)
"Amy is beginning to lose faith in me," Jose said. "I must regain her faith if this alliance is too work. Knocking out her sister will be more than enough."
Sammy continued to run through the woods with the flag until Jose tripped her up causing her to fall and drop the flag.
"Amy grab the flag!" Jose yelled as Amy grabbed the flag and began to run away from Sammy with Jose not far behind.
"Hey give that back!" Sammy yelled at the two of them as she got up.
"Second born and second in life! Nice try Samey!" Amy yelled as her and Jose disappeared from Sammy's sight.
"You were saying about me not doing anything," Jose bragged as he ran ahead of Amy.
"Hey you just tripped her, I'm still the one with the flag," Amy retorted.
"Yet you wouldn't have that flag if it wasn't for me," Jose replied.
"Keep telling yourself that," Amy told Jose as she rolled her eyes.
(Confessional: Amy)
"Omg, Jose needs to learn to shut up," Amy complained. "You're not that great and honestly I'd be doing so much better if you weren't weighing me down."
The camera cut back to Alejandro and Bridgette standing guard of the flag not saying a word when Bridgette saw something out of the corner of her eye. She turned to look but saw nothing.
"Alejandro, did you see that?" Bridgette asked.
"Your mind is playing tricks on you," Alejandro told her.
"I'm sure I saw someone or something move, I'm sure of it," Bridgette replied whilst behind her someone had taken Alejandro out of shot and knocked him out cold. "Maybe you're right. I must be paranoid or something… Alejandro?"
Before Bridgette realised someone had knocked her out and the flag was taken. The camera the cut to Geoff, Anthony, Griff, Sophia, Jayden, Dawn, Eva and Cyber all on the floor panting in the Happy Hippo's castle, all exhausted by the struggles.
"Can we… Call it a draw?" Geoff asked whilst panting.
"Never!" Jayden replied panting as well before realising the flag was gone. "Wait, where'd the flag go?"
"What!?" Griff exclaimed in shock. "Where did that dastardly flag go?"
"Noah took it," Hannah told everyone with glee from atop the castle.
"Hannah why didn't you tell us?" Sophia asked getting up onto her knees.
"I'm just the lookout," Hannah replied giggling. "One of you should've got him."
(Confessional: Anthony)
"Hannah's a sweet girl, but I've met smarter plants than her," Anthony said.
(Confessional: Sophia)
"Hannah might've just cost me my bet with Anthony," Sophia complained. "At least its less than what I have to wash back home."
"Noah actually did something useful? Never saw that coming. Everyone get out of here and find Noah, protect him at all cost!" Jayden yelled as she and her entire team got up and ran away.
"What do we do now?" Sophia asked sounding really deflated.
"We can't do anything," Anthony told her sounding deflated as well. "They've won this challenge and we've lost."
"Didn't either of you listen to the rules?" Geoff asked causing everyone to look at him with confusion upon their face. "Chris said they need to capture the flag to win. If we follow them and get to Noah we can still win this!"
"My good man I do believe you are correct. My fellow teammates, this is the part of the play where the heroes get defeated before the grand finale where they rise up and have a magnificent victory! Let us charge!" Griff exclaimed as he ran out of the castle with Geoff, Sophia and Anthony following him.
"Ummm guys… Help!" Hannah yelled. "I wanna help!"
The scene changed to Heather, Shelly and Isaiah all standing around Brick who was tied up with a vine and sitting in the middle of the classroom.
"What are we actually doing with him?" Shelly asked Heather.
"I like the idea of just torturing him," Heather said sinisterly. "I've heard people in the army are trained to resist torture, let's see how well the cadet can handle it."
"I'm a cadet! I haven't even been taught how to pitch a tent properly yet!" Brick yelled with fear.
"I say we rip his small intestine out his mouth, and rip his large intestine out his butt, and use him as a skipping rope," Isaiah told everyone.
"That's not even possible!" Brick screamed.
"He is technically correct," Shelly stated. "If we really wanted to do that we'd have to just use his large intestines to statistically have a better skipping rope."
"That's not what I meant!" Brick screamed again.
"Plus its disgusting, but I like the way you think," Heather complimented Isaiah. "I'm thinking we dangle him from atop the castle wall and leave him for the bears."
"What is wrong with you guys?" Brick asked.
"You're the one who thought it'd be a good idea to take the flag from me," Heather told Brick bending down to look him directly in the eyes. "Do you really think I'm the person who's got something wrong with them when you do that?"
"You guys are really scaring me right now," Brick told them.
"Just don't pee yourself," Isaiah replied causing Brick to blush when suddenly Jose and Amy ran through the castle entrance with a flag in their hand.
"The courageous and genius team of Amy and Jose have returned." Jose announced.
"We are the king and queen of this team and challenge," Amy cheered as she waved the flag in the air with glee.
"Wait… where's Yukari?" Shelly asked.
"We kicked her out because she wouldn't obey orders," Jose told her.
"Honestly she was like completely useless. We didn't even need her to win," Amy added.
"I know I have glasses but you guys can't be this blind?" Shelly asked.
"What are you talking about?" Amy asked.
"Maybe you two should look around and see that we have no flag!" Heather yelled at them.
"What?!" Jose and Amy both exclaimed realising their flag was gone.
"How did you three not defend our flag?" Jose questioned them with fury. "You and one job and you failed to do it!"
"You left me with a walking calculator and weakling. You set me up for failure!" Heather yelled back.
"Why do you have the pee pee cadet here?" Amy asked.
"He tricked us into chasing him so Sammy could steal our flag," Shelly told her. "Statistically speaking it had a 91 percent chance of succeeding so it is not our fault."
"Wait… did you say Samey?" Amy asked.
"No I said Sammy. I may have glasses but you need a hearing aid," Shelly replied.
"Omg we haven't got another flag, we've got our flag!" Amy screamed.
"Me and Amy cleaned up the mess you all made and we're still no closer to winning," Jose complained. "Honestly, how useless can you all be?"
(Confessional: Shelly)
"Statistically speaking, Jose and Amy have a combined IQ of 56," Shelly stated. "If I wanted to killed myself I'd jump from their ego all the way down to IQ."
"Don't you dare call me useless again!" Heather yelled at Jose whilst getting in his face. "You're the most useless person on this team!"
"Now we get to watch some idiots fight, yay," Isaiah said sarcastically.
The camera cut to Noah walking casually through the forest and saw the castle close by all whilst whistling a little tune along the way.
(Confessional: Noah)
"I've been in two seasons of this show now and honestly a challenge has never been so easy," Noah told the camera. "Two teams full of morons fighting and a flag between them. A baby would've been harder to take the flag from."
"NOAH!" Jayden yelled in the distance with her and her team running towards him. "Why are you walking? Run to the castle!"
"Miss Olympian the castle is a few metres away. I've got time," Noah told her.
"No you don't!" Cyber yelled back as Geoff, Sophia, Griff and Anthony were seen behind them.
"Come on dudes we've almost got him!" Geoff cheered his team along.
"You lead them right to me!" Noah yelled at his team. "I'm working with morons!"
"We don't have time for this! Just run!" Jayden yelled.
"Screw this!" Eva said angrily as she reached Noah and began to try and take the flag of Noah, who refused to let go of it.
"Hey! If it wasn't for me you wouldn't have this flag, I am taking it to the castle!" Noah told her.
"Give it to me!" Eva screamed back with Jayden, Dawn and Cyber standing around the two fighting with the Happy Hippos almost reaching them.
"We don't have time for this!" Jayden told them both. "One of you take it and run or I'll make sure on of you goes home!"
"Noah give it to me. Now!" Eva said to Noah is a really threatening tone.
"Fine, whatever. Its not like I care," Noah replied letting go of the flag and letting Eva and the rest of his team run off.
"I've got him!" Geoff yells as he tackles Noah to the floor and the rest of Geoff's team cheer.
"Good for you Geoff. You've tackled the guy who doesn't have the flag, I'm sure you're so proud," Noah said sarcastically as the rest of the team realised and saw the Rockin' Roosters arrive at their castle and gave an almighty cheer of joy.
"Yes!" Jayden cheered. "We are gold medalists! Not bronze, not silver, we are a gold!"
"Yay! All of your aura's are glowing a marvellous purple!" Dawn added until she heard a mumble and saw in the corner Alejandro and Bridgette tied up to each other. "My friends look!"
"What happened to you two?" Cyber asked as he ran over and removed their gags.
"Someone got the flag!" Bridgette yelled.
"What!?" Jayden screamed.
"We were knocked out and someone took out flag," Bridgette confessed as the Happy Hippos entered the castle with Noah.
"Bridge! What happened?" Geoff questioned as he ran over and began to try and untie her.
"Campers!" Chris yelled out through the speakers. "We have a winner and it is the Deadly Ducks who will get a full three course meal this evening, courtesy of our sponsors Lord of the Onion Rings! Eat and get the hell out! The losers, however, are the Rockin' Roosters who failed miserably in their defence and attack! Lucky for the Happy Hippos who narrowly survive the elimination."
"You two," Jayden said in a furious manner to Bridgette and Alejandro. "Cost us this challenge. If I had a choice you'd both be gone but we'll have to settle for one."
"What about Noah?" Eva questioned.
"All of them should be going!" Jayden screamed back.
"Well looks like you're doing my dishes for the rest of the competition," Anthony told Sophia.
"Great," Sophia sighed. "Me and my big mouth screwed this up huh?"
"Yeah, you kind of did," Anthony replied smiling and the two shared a moment.
The camera cut to the Deadly Ducks celebrating with Yukari standing with the Rockin' Rooster's flag in her hands.
"How did you even get that?" Shelly asked her. "Its statistically impossible for you to do that by yourself."
"I work better alone," Yukari told her. "Plus once I lost the dead weight of Jose and Amy everything became massively easier."
"If it wasn't for us you wouldn't of had a flag here to capture," Jose replied.
"You defended the flag? Wow you're actually useful for something," Yukari told him whilst twirling the flag around.
"No we got the flag back. Heather, Shelly and Isaiah lost the flag," Jose told Yukari.
(Confessional: Heather)
"I am getting saddled with the blame for losing this flag when I was with two nothings!" Heather yelled angrily at the camera. "If Jose knows what's good for him he will start being nicer to me, otherwise he is next out!"
"Who cares who did what, we won!" Amy told everyone. "Like nothing matters if we win."
"I hate to say it, but she's right, as long as we've won it doesn't matter," Yukari said as she walked over to Brick. "Now lets release Brick before we mentally scar him."
"Yes, someone who's mentally okay!" Brick cheered.
The camera cut Jayden, Eva and Dawn sitting outside the cabins with Jayden punching a pillow.
"We lost! I have never lost in my entire life!" Jayden screamed.
"We've got a team full of weaklings, what did you expect?" Eva asked.
"An all rounder team, not completely useless players," Jayden replied throwing the pillow away from the cabins. "We need to get rid of one of the useless three."
"I say we get rid of Bridgette," Eva stated. "I'd rather be eaten by sharks than have her."
"But Bridgette is such a wonderful person and love animals," Dawn added. "Can we not all get along and not vote for anyone."
"Welcome to the real world moon child. Not everyone is nice, you have to be harsh," Eva told her. "Not everything is rainbows and happiness."
"I know but must we vote off Bridgette?" Dawn questioned.
"Sadly I agree with Eva. The other two at least offer something interesting," Jayden said.
"What do they offer that Bridgette doesn't?" Dawn asked.
"Alejandro is a snake but he knows tactics better than anyone in this game and Noah is a sarcastic A-hole but he's smart. Bridgette is just a nice girl," Jayden told Dawn.
"But surely someone nice should be in more than those two?" Dawn asked.
"It's like talking to a toddler, maybe get a talking cow and a singing chicken to explain it," Eva insulted Dawn causing her to pout.
"I am not a child," Dawn responded angrily.
"Sure you are, you're a big kid," Eva said sarcastically.
"You two be quiet," Jayden told them both. "Look I know you don't like it Dawn but getting rid of Bridgette is the best option for the team. You just have to accept it. Now I'm going go for a run before the elimination."
"I'll come with you," Eva told her as they both got up and began to run away from Dawn and the camera panned to Alejandro walking by with a smirk on his face. The camera followed Alejandro as he walked over to Cyber.
"I have a proposition for you," Alejandro said to Cyber.
(Confessional: Dawn)
"I do not believe that Bridgette should be going," Dawn complained. "She is a good person and loves animals… but if its what I must do…"
The scene changed to later in the evening with Geoff, Sophia and Bridgette sitting on the dock.
"You okay Bridge?" Geoff asked Bridgette whilst placing an arm around her. "You seem shaken up after being tied up."
"I'm fine Geoff," Bridgette replied looking down at the water. "I'm just accepting that this is my last night on the island."
"Don't think like that Bridgette, you're up against Noah and Alejandro and everyone likes you. I'm sure you'll be okay," Sophia reassured her sister.
"What about Eva? Remember, she's hated me ever since the first season. She'll probably convince Jayden to vote for me," Bridgette told her whilst sounding deflated.
"Jayden's stronger than Eva and the leader, I say whatever she says goes and she's gonna get rid of Noah. No Olympic attitude remember," Geoff said trying to comfort his girlfriend.
"Lets just not talk about it," Bridgette said. "If its my last night, I want to spend it with the two people I care about most on this island."
"Bridgette," Alejandro said from behind the three of them. "Might I have a word with you?"
"Beat it Alejandro," Geoff told him. "What makes you think she'd even want to speak to you?"
"Yeah what Geoff said, just leave us alone," Sophia replied.
"Maybe the little mouse and the party dude you should both let Bridgette speak," Alejandro told them both. "Considering we're both on the chopping block."
"Don't call my sister a little mouse," Bridgette told him. "What do you want to talk about anyway?"
"It is about who we are voting for tonight," Alejandro replied.
"Wait who we are voting for?" Geoff questioned.
"I forgot about that," Bridgette replied getting up from the dock. "Don't worry guys I'll be back soon."
"Bridge," Geoff said as he grabbed her arm. "Are you sure?"
"Don't worry Geoff, I'll explain later," Bridgette told him as she walked over to Alejandro.
(Confessional: Geoff)
"I don't trust Alejandro," Geoff confessed. "He almost ended me and Bridge. He could do it again if he tried. I just don't want to lose her… she's the best thing that's ever happened to me."
"So I know who I want you to vote fo-" Bridgette said before she was interrupted.
"Jayden, Eva and Dawn are all voting for you," Alejandro interrupted her.
"What?" Bridgette said in shock. "So I am going then…"
"Not necessarily. I've convinced Cyber to be on our side," Alejandro told her with a smirk.
"Wait, I haven't even told you who we're voting for. How do you know I don't want you to vote for him?" Bridgette asked with an annoyed expression on her face.
"When I heard that you had three votes against you already I decided to take things into my own hands," Alejandro told her. "It seemed like the smart thing to do."
"Okay then what am I meant to do then? Trust that you're telling me is true and hope I don't go tonight?" Bridgette asked.
"No if this plan is to work you need to do something as well," Alejandro told her. "You need to talk to Dawn and come across as sincere as possible. She is in limbo about voting for you and you being nice to her may push her to not vote for you."
"Okay I can do that, but I need you to do something for me," Bridgette told him.
"I have done all this to keep you in the game. Must I do you another favour?" Alejandro asked.
"Yes," Bridgette told him firmly. "Don't insult Geoff or Sophia anymore. If we're going to be in an alliance together then I need you to do that for me."
"So we're now in an alliance together?" Alejandro asked with a smirk.
"Considering you just worked your butt off to save me and I'm meant to be telling you who to vote for, I'd say we are. But only if you agree to what I said. Deal?" Bridgette asked offering her hand.
"Deal," Alejandro replied shaking Bridgette's hand. "But your sister is still a little mouse."
"Good thing to say before I vote," Bridgette said folding her arms. "Speaking of which, who am I voting for?"
(Confessional: Bridgette)
"I won't lie, doing this with Alejandro made me feel horrible inside," Bridgette explained. "I don't scheme like this. I like to be fair but if they're voting for me then there's nothing I can do and I have to be in an alliance with me."
The camera cut to the Rockin' Roosters sitting around the campfire with Chris standing at the podium with the s'mores in his hand.
"Campers you are the losing team tonight," Chris told them all. "Even an Olympian couldn't lead you all to victory, that's how bad you all are."
"Like how your hosting talent couldn't stop this show's downfall?" Noah asked sarcastically.
"Noah, be quiet," Chris told him. "Now tonight one of you will go to the catapult of losers, be launched away from the island and you can never come back. EVER. Its time to vote and good luck because you're all gonna need it."
As everyone began to get up Bridgette quickly grabbed Dawn's arm, wanting to speak to her.
"Hey Dawn," Bridgette said. "I know that you, Jayden and Eva are voting for me tonight and I just wanted to say I completely understand why you'd do that."
"I do apologise Bridgette, I do not wish to vote for you but I have no choice," Dawn confessed.
"I get it. You're close with Jayden, but I hope we can be friends when this is all over," Bridgette said to her. "I know we haven't talked that much but you seem really cool."
"Why thank you. I must your aura is a wonderful light blue," Dawn told her.
"Does it match my hoodie?" Bridgette asked as she chuckled.
"Remarkably so," Dawn replied with a smile as she walked off with Bridgette following behind.
(Voting Confessional: Alejandro)
"I have done all I can for Bridgette. Now we must wait and hope that all of the pieces fall into place," Alejandro told the camera.
(Voting Confessional: Eva)
Eva held up a picture of Bridgette with a big red X over her face.
"Times up surfer girl, hope you get fed to the sharks," Eva said.
(Voting Confessional: Noah)
Noah held a picture of Alejandro up with a red X across his face.
"You're the reason I left World Tour. Once an eel, always an eel," Noah told the camera.
(Voting Confessional: Dawn)
"I do not know what I can do," Dawn confessed. "Bridgette is a wonderful person and doesn't deserve to leave this island! But who else do I vote for? I don't know who truly deserves to leave."
(Voting Confessional: Bridgette)
Bridgette draws a red X over a photo's face that is out of shot and can't be seen on camera.
(Voting Confessional: Cyber)
"Alejandro's offer is still on the table for me," Cyber said. "He said he can help me in the long run but do I really want to vote this person off. I'm not sure."
(Voting Confessional: Jayden)
Jayden held up a picture of Bridgette with an X over her face.
"No hard feelings kid but out of everyone here you're the most useless," Jayden told the camera. "Maybe once we're out of here you can teach me how to surf or something."
The scene changed to Chris standing at the podium with the s'mores in hand and the campers sitting around the bonfire.
"Campers. When I call your name I will throw you a s'more. Dawn, Alejandro, Noah and Cyber you are all safe," Chris told everyone as he threw each individual person a s'more.
"Why thank you Chris," Dawn thanked Chris happily.
"Yay more calories for my already terrible diet," Noah said placing the s'more in his mouth.
"Jayden, Bridgette and Eva," Chris began. "One of you is going home this evening and two of you are safe. The first person safe is…"
…

"… Bridgette," Chris said as he threw her a s'more and she happily took it and smiled at Alejandro.
"WHAT!" Eva yelled with fury. "How is she safe?"
"How can you all save her?" Jayden turned around and asked all her teammates. "She's useless."
"Obviously they see one of you as more useless," Chris told them both. "The final person safe is…"
…

"… Jayden," Chris said as he threw her the final s'more.
"You voted for me!" Eva yelled in anger. "I am the strongest player on this team! How can you vote for me?"
"Because you're not the strongest player," Alejandro replied with a smirk. "That title will always belong to me."
"You did this!" Eva yelled as she walked menacingly towards him.
"Chef! Get Eva in the catapult!" Chris yelled as Chef entered and dragged Eva over to the catapult and placed her in it.
"You will all pay for this! Alejandro you will die!" Eva screamed.
"I'll kiss the camera for you in the final," Alejandro replied with a wink causing Eva to become even more enraged.
"Bye bye Eva," Chris said as he pulled the lever launching Eva off into the distance.
Once Eva was gone Jayden walked in front of everyone as they were leaving to block their path.
"You were all lucky this evening. Next time you won't be," Jayden told them all before turning back and walking away and they all followed except for Bridgette and Alejandro.
"Thanks for saving me tonight," Bridgette told him.
"It was no problem," Alejandro replied.
"Maybe you're not just like your family," Bridgette said with a chuckle.
"I did this to keep me in this game. Don't take it as anything else," Alejandro told Bridgette as he walked away from her.
"I still don't believe you!" Bridgette yelled back at him.
The camera cut to Sammy walking through the forest by herself.
"Guys is anyone here… guys," Sammy said asking for help before the TV screen paused and zoomed out to see Chris in the control room.
"Will Sammy ever find her way out of the forest? Will Alejandro follow his own path? To find out all this and more tune into Total. Drama. Blood vs Water!" Chris yelled.

This was an interesting chapter write but I adored the interactions I got to write out of it. Some alliances begin to form and more importantly the stories are beginning to develop for all these characters and who they are. The reason I got rid of Eva was because I just felt like she wasn't adding much to the story. Originally I wanted her to go past the merge but in the end I think more characters could do more than what she could do. Now for the questions!
1. Will Sophia and Anthony blossom into a wonderful pair of friends, or something more?
2. Is Jose pushing his luck with Heather and will he regret it later on?
3. Is Alejandro going to follow in his family's footsteps or will he carve his own path?
4. Will Griff help Geoff out and get him on his side?
5. Who do you think is going to be eliminated next?
Keep the light shining!
