"Previously on Total Drama Stranded," Chris announced as he waved his hands dramatically. "We brought back our old friend, Molotov the Bear. The campers were tasked with putting on a production of Goldilocks and the Three Bears for Molotov. Chelsea wanted to put a dance number into her show, which was confusing enough without Rusty screwing with the lines. Meanwhile, the Mountains' crummy material led to some misfortune and resulted in an all-out brawl with Misha, Sasha, Elijah, and Briony. Molotov appreciated the slapstick though and gave them the higher score. In the end, the Rivers voted Rusty out, despite his bluff that he had found the idol. Before he left, Pamela revealed to Rusty that she in fact already had the idol. Things are going to be getting rough and tough today so buckle up and get ready for another super episode of Total Drama Stranded!"

(Not Quite Loser Island)
Jason had gotten somewhat better at building a shelter. With Esme's help he had put together a fort that would actually keep them sheltered.
"When is Shannon going to get back?" Jason complained. "She promised me an idol and I haven't seen it since…and that's because I'm blind, but I haven't felt it either."
"You may be blind, but you should be able to see that Shannon was lying," Esme remarked.
"Hey, what'd you call me?" Jason snapped. "Blind? You say that like it's a bad thing."
"No, you hear it like it is a bad thing," Esme replied.
Meanwhile, deeper in the forest, Rusty was getting up from a painful sleep against a tree. He had tired eyes and the start of a scraggly beard starting to appear.
"Where is it? Where is it?" he moaned as he searched through bush after bush.
He crawled up to an old, fat tree with a gap in it.
"Oh no, I've learn from experience," Rusty said to the tree.
Instead of reaching directly into the tree, he crept up to the hole. Then he peeked his eye in to look for the idol.
"Ack!" he cried as a racoon bit down on his eyeball. "Why does this keep happening to me?"
Confessional:
Rusty-Is there some racoon chatroom where they all discuss how they're going to assault me or something?
Shannon was also not looking too good. She was covered in filth and was starting to get a crazed look in her face. Yet she kept on with determination.
"Mr. Monkey, where are you now?" she called. "Come on out, I just want to give you a hug. I don't care about the idol."
She accidentally put her foot in a puddle and splattered mud all over herself. She seethed with rage and continued to stomp through the jungle.
"Come on, be nice!" she called.
Eventually she spotted a tail drooping out of a tree.
"Aha, now I got you!" she exclaimed as she charged at the tree.
She jumped up and pulled herself up by a branch.
"Give it to me!" she cried as she came face to face with the monkey.
However one look around showed that there were plenty more monkeys waiting for her. They did not look happy.
"Oh, hi…" she said. "I'll just take the idol and be on my way, okay?"
Apparently it was not okay as the monkeys began pelting her with pinecones, dirt, and whatever else they could throw.
"You're all going to be stuffed for this!" Shannon cried as she dropped out of the tree.
(Monster Mountains)
Keith had awoken well before any of the members beneath him. He had in thought from his tree top, while five contestants slept in a shelter built by Ilona. Keith's ears perked up when he heard someone approaching. He remained silent, though, to keep the impression that he was asleep. He watched curiously as Jojo crept towards the shelter. Stealthily Jojo leaned over and grabbed onto Briony. He clamped his hand over her mouth so she couldn't scream, but she was too dazed to realize what was happening at first. It wasn't until Jojo had dragged her out of the shelter that she started to struggle, yet she couldn't break free and nobody heard her. Except Keith.
As Jojo dragged her away, Keith smiled slightly and muttered, "Interesting."
Briony was taken out of the woods and to the edge of the mountain where Calvin and Elijah waited for her.
"Are you sure this is necessary?" Elijah asked. "It seems a bit extreme."
"It's completely necessary, Briony stepped way too far out of line yesterday and for that she must be punished," Calvin declared coldly.
"What are you going to do me?" Briony asked with panic as she broke her mouth free of Jojo.
"Jojo, please keep her silent," Calvin ordered. "I'd hate for her to spoil it."
Briony continued to struggle with panicked look in her eyes, yet Jojo remained strong. Calvin revealed a vine rope that was tied to a large rock. He then took the other end of it and began tying it around Briony's legs. Briony tried to kick at him, but Jojo squeezed her shoulder painfully every time she tried.
Once the rope was tied tightly around her legs, Calvin said, "Let her go, Jojo."
"You got it," Jojo said as he shoved Briony forward.
She screamed terrified as she was thrown over the edge of the mountain. The rope kept her from plummeting down, but she didn't feel any safer.
"Help, help, you can't do this to me," Briony sobbed.
"I'd stop struggling if I were you," Calvin cautioned. "That rope doesn't look too sturdy and it's a long way down."
Briony's face went ghostly white as she looked down.
"Perhaps now you'll think twice about lashing out to your superior," Calvin said. "You'd better hope that you're friends find you soon, because I am not letting you up."
With that he left her behind to suffer.
Confessional:
Calvin-Like I said before, I don't do this for enjoyment. Briony just went too far yesterday and I didn't do anything about it. I can't have people thinking that I am weak, I need them to fear me. How else am I going to survive out here?
Briony-Oh that f**king tears it! Elimination isn't enough for them, their deaths wouldn't even satisfy me now!
(Monster Mountains)
"Ah, isn't this a glorious morning, team?" Chelsea exclaimed exuberantly as the team awoke.
"Well, someone is cheery today," Garfield remarked.
"What's not to be happy about?" Chelsea replied. "It's a beautiful day, Rusty is gone, and even Pamela is nowhere to be seen. I've got a good feeling that things are going to get a lot better for the Raging Rivers now."
"That's nice, but I actually had a vision today," Desdemona exclaimed. "It's very dire, very dire indeed."
"Well, what is it?" Matilda asked with concern.
"As always, it wasn't clear, but the urgency was clear," Desdemona said as she paced around dramatically. "I saw you three, and yet a voice was telling me that one of you is a traitor. One of you can't be trusted."
Matilda gasped in shock, but Chelsea just shook her head.
"I think you must have misread that vision," she said. "The three of us are good friends and wouldn't think of backstabbing each other."
"Yes, yes, that's true," Desdemona said with a nod. "Except that's exactly what a backstabbing liar would say."
"Like, oh my gosh, she's totally right, Chelsea!" Matilda exclaimed.
"Of course, I'd never imply that you were any less than a lovely lady," Desdemona said. "I just recite what the spirits tell me."
"Well…thanks for the heads up," Chelsea said awkwardly.
"Do what you will with the information," Desdemona said as she headed out. "I just speak the words, that's all my job requires."
Chelsea had just turned around, when Desdemona slid back next to her.
"But you might want to keep an eye on Garfield," she whispered. "I mean, if there's a traitor among us it's gotta be him; no one can be that nice."
"I'll take it under consideration," Chelsea said as she forcefully removed Desdemona from her personal space.
Meanwhile, out in the woods, Pamela was kneeling in the ground. She pulled out her idol and placed it in a hole she had dug. She glanced around to make sure no one saw her, then buried it. She marked the area was a large, spotted rock.
"There, I've got my secret weapon and no one will ever find it," she declared to herself.
Confessional:
Pamela-It's for the best that I keep my idol buried. I mean, if I keep it with me all the time then anyone of those chumps could steal it when I'm not ready. This way I'll always have it when the next elimination and then someone will be going home with tears in their eyes.
Desdemona-I need to break apart that power trio. They're fine now, but if we keep losing challenges, they're going to become a powerful force. No, I need to stop this before it's too late.
Matilda-Well, Garfield can't be a traitor, right, he's, like, waaaay too perfect. And it can't be Chelsea, she's an awesome girl. (She gasps) What if it's me?
Chelsea-I don't know about the others, but I judge people but what they show me, not what some prophet tells me. Sorry Desdemona, but I'm not about to believe that one of my friends is going to backstab me.
(Monster Mountains)
"Somebody, help me!" Briony continued to cry as she hung upside-down in terror. "Anybody!"
"Briony?" Ilona exclaimed as she heard her voice. "Where are you?"
"Over here!" Briony cried desperately.
Ilona leaned over the edge of the mountain and gasped in horror.
"Oh they went too far this time!" Ilona roared. "They will pay, I will make them regret ever coming to this island."
"Do you think you could help me first?" Briony asked.
"Right," Ilona replied as she pulled Briony up. "Are you okay?"
"No, but I'll survive," Briony sighed as she hugged the ground.
"When I get my hands on Calvin, I am going to twist his body so far around he'll be walking with his hands and eating with his feet," Ilona growled.
"Ilona, wait!" Stanley exclaimed as he stopped her.
"What?" Ilona snapped. "Calvin needs to pay, he has no soul!"
"All true, but you can't escalate this," Stanley cautioned. "They're going to come after Briony again. The more you aggravate them, the worse it'll be. I'm sorry, but it's best that we just forget about this."
"That's ridiculous!" Ilona yelled, then calmed down. "But true…ugh, this is not what I thought I was signing up for."
Confessional:
Keith-I guess I could have helped Briony, but it would be better to just let the drama unfold between the two sides. I suppose it's for the best that Stanley stopped Ilona before the action began. Another fight would have been exciting, but I think we've had enough violence already. I'm not a sociopath, I swear.
Ilona-Every time you think Calvin can't get any worse he goes out and doubles your worst fears. And there's nothing I can do about it. But mark my words, Calvin will suffer the worst fate imaginable, I will make sure of it.
(Raging Rivers)
"Whoa, whoa, whoa, are you actually making breakfast for us?" Matilda exclaimed in disbelief as Riley handed her a bowl.
"Well, you didn't think that I was going to let you waste all that oatmeal on the show, did you?" Riley replied. "I hope that this makes up for not providing much on the previous days."
"Not by a longshot," Chelsea scoffed as she accepted the oatmeal. "First off, you didn't provide this, Chris did. And second, it's oatmeal, it takes no preparation."
"Are you kidding? I had to get water and everything," Riley complained. "That requires walking, leaning, and more walking. That's way too much work for me."
"Chelsea, cut him some slack," Garfield said. "We're very grateful, Riley."
The masked boy, however, went right back to fishing.
"Hey come and join us, Masky," Chelsea called. "There's plenty of oatmeal left."
"Actually, that was the last bowl," Riley pointed out.
"Oh, disregard!" Chelsea called back.
The masked boy took his spear and began spotting the fish swimming around. He focused on one and prepared to skewer him when suddenly a rock was tossed into the water scattering the fish.
"Oops, that's going to make it hard to catch fish now," Pamela taunted.
"And so now you're back to tormenting me?" the masked boy asked.
"I'm here to torment all of you," Pamela exclaimed. "Why can't you get that? You were in my way, so you get the wrath you deserve."
"Why? Why do I deserve it?" The masked boy asked in frustration.
"Well, for one thing you're wearing a mask," Pamela answered. "That means you've got something to hide and it's probably something pretty unpleasant. For all I know you could be some escaped killer and if that was the case you would deserve a lot worse than what I'm giving you."
"Fine, be that way," the boy sighed as he turned to fish somewhere else.
Confessional:
Riley-What does it take to please these people? I don't do work, they get mad. I do work, they're still mad. I'm working harder than I ever have in my life and it's not good enough for them.
Pamela-People will say that they don't deserve pain, they're good people. Yeah, right. I've gotten to know enough about human being to know that no matter how nice you seem, there's nothing but rotten scum underneath. Always.
Masked Boy-With Rusty gone it would be nice if we could all get along. Clearly the other team is having issues, so we can use that to our advantage. But if Pamela wants to go next, why should I bother to help her?
(Monster Mountains)
"I'm so tired of these weak breakfasts," Jojo complained as he swallowed a handful of berries. "I'm a big man, I should be eating bacon and eggs."
"I think we'd all rather something better," Calvin sighed. "But this is what we've got so it's what we'll have to deal with."
"You know, I think I saw some of the other guys eating mushrooms," Elijah said. "It wouldn't be much of an improvement, but it would be something different I guess."
"Well, what are we supposed to do, ask them for it?" Jojo scoffed.
"No, we take it from them," Calvin declared. "Because we are in charge, we are on top, and they need to understand that."
"Alright, I'm up for some more action," Jojo declared as he stood up.
The three of them left their shelter, but we're stopped by Keith.
"Gentlemen, there's no need for any more cruelty," Keith said warmly. "I'd be happy to show you where the grove of mushrooms is."
"I guess that works too," Calvin replied as they followed after him.
The others meanwhile had returned to their shelter for their breakfast.
"I can't believe Calvin would do something like that," Stanley said to Briony. "I hope you're okay."
"Yeah, that must have been really scary," Misha added.
"Believe me, it was," Briony sighed. "I don't know if I can take this. I tried standing up to Calvin, but when they all ganged up on me I didn't have a chance."
"I won't let it happen again," Ilona promised. "I'll start assigning shifts, I'll use more physical force, I'll do whatever it takes to keep my team safe from those lunatics."
"You're the best, Ilona," Misha said with sugary sweetness.
"And just remember, Duchess Briony," Sasha added. "At the end of this, what doesn't kill you shall only make you into a stronger fighter."
"Thanks," Briony said glumly. "But what if it kills me?"
Confessional:
Keith-Like I said, we can't have too much action in one day. Poor Briony can't take that much. And besides, this way I can get on the good side of both alliances.
Misha-Briony deserved exactly what she got. I mean, she's a wimp and she's foolish to think otherwise. I can't wait till she gets voted out and stops whining.
"Attention campers!" Chris's voice blared. "It's time for your next reward challenge. Meet me where the two camps converge at the waterfall."
The Raging Rivers left their camp to follow the river deeper into the woods. The Monster Mountains, meanwhile, walked around to the other side of the mountain and began climbing down into the woods. Both teams soon arrived at the largest part of the river. It was a massive waterfall that poured down from a tall cliff. Several rocks jutted out of the pounding mist. Chris stood waiting at the top.
"Welcome campers!" he greeted. "For this next challenge you'll be twisting your speed, your strength, but most importantly, your balance."
"No problem," Chelsea exclaimed. "Cheerleaders have natural senses of balance."
"As I was saying," Chris continued with an irritated glance at Chelsea. "It will be a match of endurance. Each team will send out one camper and the two will fight on the top of that waterfall. The goal is to get the come crashing down into the water below. Once that happens you are out and eliminated from the challenge. But until then, anything goes."
Calvin grinned at the sound of this. Garfield did not look as pleased.
"What if we get hurt, those rocks don't look to soft?" Garfield asked.
"Well, that would be amusing," Chris laughed.
Garfield narrowed his eyes at him.
"Don't worry, we've got the best medical team on call," Chris assured. "They'll fix you up good as new."
Garfield didn't look satisfied, but he didn't argue any further.
"And what will you be competing for this time?" Chris as he revealed a large crate. "Instead of a challenge advantage, you'll be getting this nice source of food. It's stuffed with fruits, breads, and bottled water. With a bunch of hungry teenagers I'd say it would last about…one day. But only one of you will get to take it back to your camp."
Jojo began drooling at the mention of food.
"Okay, team, we have got to win," Calvin insisted. "We need that food way more than they do."
Riley also seemed quite entranced by the reward.
"Hey, Riley, you going to be okay?" Matilda asked as she snapped her fingers in front of his face. "Hello? Hello, anyone home?"
"Oh, and one more thing," Chris said. "Since the Raging Rivers have two less members, they can pick two who will be going twice."
"Me, for sure," Chelsea exclaimed.
The masked boy was about to put his hand up, when Pamela declared, "Me!"
Chelsea gasped and glared at Pamela. Pamela just glared back.
"And there we have it," Chris exclaimed. "Let the games begin."
Confessional:
Pamela-Ha, too easy. Not only do I get to screw over my team, I get to do it twice. And once more it's reward challenge so they can't do anything about it. Even if it wasn't I still have my secret weapon.
Jojo-Foooood…we are not losing this.
Chelsea-Oh, Pamela is going to ruin us all over again. I mean, if she doesn't care for us, you'd think she would at least care to get some food for herself.
Riley-There, if I win this challenge for my team, that should make up for any lack of work. And I'll never have to work again!
Misha-This challenge is going to be too easy. As a gymnast I already have perfect balance, but I won't need that 'cause who would hurt an innocent widdle girl?
"We are ready for the first match," Chris exclaimed. "It's Chelsea versus Ilona."
Both girls stood at the top of the cliff now. Chelsea tried to remain calm, but still let her fear show in her face. Ilona remained neutral.
"Go!" Chris exclaimed.
Ilona made the first move, jumping from stone to stone to get closer to Chelsea. Chelsea realize what she was doing, and tried to move away. However, she wasn't prepared for the slippery rock and nearly fell right off when she tried to jump. She wobbled and tumbled down, yet she managed to hang on.
"Sorry, Chelsea," Ilona said sincerely as she leapt over to where Chelsea was hanging on.
"Hey, I'm not out yet," Chelsea exclaimed as she kicked at Ilona's legs.
As Ilona stumbled backwards into the rushing water, Chelsea was able to pull herself up.
"She's outta there, right?" Matilda asked.
"Not quite," Chris replied. "She needs to fall all the way over the edge and into the water below. If Ilona can recover before that then she's still in."
Ilona managed to stay up top. She clung onto a sharp rock just barely hanging over the edge.
"Come Chelsea, you can do this!" Matilda cheered.
"Come on, Ilona, knock her brains out," Pamela added.
"If you're going to call out violent things, could you at least, like, do it for the other team?" Matilda asked.
"I could but I won't," Pamela replied.
Back on the water, Ilona was coming after Chelsea again. Chelsea, however, was starting to get the hang of maneuvering between the rocks.
"Take this and this," Chelsea exclaimed as she tried to deliver a series of punches at Ilona.
Ilona simply moved from left to right to avoid each one. Finally, she reached out and grabbed Chelsea's wrist.
"Eep," Chelsea exclaimed.
Ilona then flipped Chelsea over. The cheerleader was stuck floating down the water on her back.
"Come on, Chelsea, don't give up yet!" Garfield called.
"Just drop already," Calvin shouted. "I'm getting hungry alright."
Chelsea was unable to regain herself before washing over the edge of the pounding waterfall. With a quick cry she splashed underwater.
"Chelsea's out," Chris declared. "Ilona you'll be moving ahead to the next round."
Chelsea burst out of the water sputtering. Garfield quickly rushed over to help her out.
"Chelsea, you're out," Chris repeated, "but since you volunteered to go again, you're not quite out of the game yet."
Confessional:
Chelsea-I just wasn't ready for that. Ilona is a good fighter, if it had been anybody else I would have won.
Ilona-This is the sort of challenge that encourages dirty play. Although, I wonder if I should be more worried about the other team or mine.
"Next up," Chris exclaimed. "Pamela versus Stanley."
"Let's do this," Stanley said to his team as he began to climb up the side of the cliff.
"Don't you dare throw this challenge," Chelsea ordered Pamela.
"Yak, yak, yak," Pamela scoffed.
The two stood on either end of the waterfall.
"Go!" Chris exclaimed.
"Prepare to lose," Stanley said as he made his way towards Pamela.
"Whatever you say," Pamela replied as she dived right over the edge of the waterfall.
Several members of her team facepalmed.
"Ooookay, I guess Stanley won that one," Chris said.
"Go me!" Stanley cheered.
"You didn't win that," Jojo scoffed. "If you had been facing a real man there's no way you would have won."
"And what's that supposed to be?" Pamela hissed as she stepped out of the water. "Are you saying that I don't count in your books? Or that if I were a man maybe I would?"
"No, no," Jojo said defensively as he put his hands up. "It's just that you threw the—"
"I've got my eye on you!" Pamela declared as she backed up to her team.
Confessional:
Calvin-Wow, Pamela's going to make things easy for our team. And what's the worst she can do if she gets a little upset?
Pamela-Erg, jocks! They thing can just run the show because they're big and strong. Well I show him not to mess with me!
Chelsea-I just knew Pamela was going to be trouble. Sadly, it's too late to do anything about her, but maybe I can just work twice as hard next time.
"And we're up to round three," Chris declared. "It's Matilda versus Briony."
"Well, we're doomed," Calvin scoffed. "I'd say even Pamela trying to throw a challenge would last longer than Briony."
Briony growled with fury.
"That's the spirit, Bri, channel that rage," Stanley said.
"Don't worry, guys," Matilda said to her team. "I totally plan on winning at least one of these."
The two girls faced off at the top.
"Begin!" Chris declared.
"Okay," Matilda exclaimed. "Let's—uh-oh."
Briony was already charging straight at her. She had a murderous look in her eyes and was quickly gaining on her.
"I'm so outta here!" Matilda exclaimed as she leapt to another rock.
Her feet slipped slightly, but she managed to hold on. Briony was just one jump behind her, so she had to act fast. Without even looking she leapt outwards. Miraculously she managed to land on a rock safely. Still, Briony continued to pursue after her.
"This is boring," Jojo moaned. "Somebody do something."
"Matilda, you have to go on the offense!" Chelsea shouted out.
"That's way easier said than done," Matilda replied as she continued to jump from rock to rock.
Briony wasn't showing any signs of slowing down. Eventually she had Matilda corner. The River girl was stuck on a rock that hung over the edge of the waterfall. Briony was right in front of her.
"Now I got you!" Briony exclaimed as she charged.
Matilda cowered in fear. This proved to be a good move, as Briony tripped right over her and tumbled down into the water.
"Matilda wins this match!" Chris declared.
"I did?" Matilda asked as she peeked up. "How?"
Briony meanwhile was having trouble staying afloat, so Ilona and Stanley had to help her to shore.
"You did your best," Ilona consoled.
"And it wasn't good enough," Calvin scoffed. "Which is exactly why we should be voting her off."
Ilona just gave him a threatening gesture, before moving past him.
"Next up," Chris continued, "we've got Riley versus Keith."
"Wish me luck," Keith said to his team as he scaled upwards.
"Okay, now I'm going to show you all what I can do," Riley declared.
"We all believe in you," Garfield said.
"Is that, like, reverse psychology?" Matilda asked.
The two boys arrived at their dueling point.
"Begin!" Chris declared.
Riley immediately jumped from one rock to another. However, the leap seemed to leave him completely out of breath."
"Are you okay?" Keith asked.
"Just give me…a minute," Riley wheezed.
Keith casually tapped him on the arm. Riley stumbled over and was taken away by the water.
"Well, wasn't that impressive?" Pamela scoffed.
"Hey, at least he did better than you," Chelsea jabbed.
"Really, because I don't recall looking that pathetic," Pamela shot back.
"So, tell me," the masked boy asked as he slid over to Desdemona, "are we screwed?"
"We mustn't try to catch up with the future before it is upon us," Desdemona replied. "I can foresee that an unlikely hero my rise up from us. I cannot see whether he or she will win, but I'd like to think there is hope."
Confessional:
Desdemona-Yeah, that was referring to me. It's time to show everyone just how much I can bring to this team. And if I fail, I'm sure there'll be at least someone who I can call an unlikely hero, right?"
Calvin-While I can say that I despise nearly everyone on my team, I can say at least they're not as pathetic as some of the people on the Raging Rivers.
"We're up to round five," Chris declared. "And it's Sasha versus Desdemona."
"I shall defeat the soothsayer!" Sasha exclaimed. "No amount of illusion or trickery shall take Lady Sasha off of her mark."
"Well, I think I can take her," Desdemona declared.
"Be careful," Chelsea cautioned. "You saw how swift she can be during the Hide and Seek challenge."
Both girls faced each other.
"Prepare to taste bitter defeat, trickster!" Sasha exclaimed.
"I could say the same thing to you," Desdemona retorted.
"Start!" Chris exclaimed.
Sasha was quick, quicker than the other contestants had been. Desdemona didn't even had time to react before Sasha tackled right into her.
"Oof!" she exclaimed as she tumbled into the water.
She desperately tried to grab onto something, yet her hands kept slipping. She was getting dangerously close to the edge now. The water swept her down…yet she did not hit the bottom. Instead her dress had gotten caught in one of the jagged rocks pointing outward.
"Ha, I'm still in," Desdemona exclaimed. "You said that I had to fall into the water to be out."
"Yes, as long as you're above the rive itself you are safe," Chris said.
"Not for long!" Sasha declared as she began to hop down the waterfall on the stones.
"Aw damn it," Desdemona cursed as she tried to pull herself up.
She had just managed to climb up and position herself, when Sasha landed right in front of her.
"Evil, be gone!" Sasha boomed as she shoved Desdemona into the water.
"And despite a lucky break, Desdemona still is out," Chris narrated.
"Well, we can, like, say goodbye to the food," Matilda sighed.
"Hey, it's not over till it's over," Chelsea declared. "Keep up your spirits."
"Next up it's Jojo versus that masked kid," Chris said.
"Alright, time to get dangerous," Jojo exclaimed as he took off his hat and began pulling off his shirt.
Noticing Stanley's eyes widen and tongue stick out, he put his shirt back on.
"Don't worry," the masked boy said to his team. "He doesn't scare me."
"You are going to crash and burn so hard!" Jojo exclaimed as the two boys arrived at the top.
"The bigger they are, the hard they fall," the masked boy replied.
"Fight!" Chris declared.
Jojo moved fast, but so did the masked boy. With each swipe Jojo took at him, the masked boy was able to duck and dodge. He rolled behind Jojo and managed to kick him right into the back. This did not have the effect he was hoping for against the large boy though.
"Ha, that doesn't hurt," Jojo scoffed as he thrust backwards and knocked the masked boy over.
The masked boy recovered, though, and managed to distance himself from Jojo. He stayed on the defense for a while, always trying to stay out of Jojo's reach.
"Come, just let me crush you," Jojo exclaimed as he swiped at him.
The masked boy charged again and tried to deliver another kick. Jojo shielded his chest, but at the last second, the masked boy changed his target to his knee.
"Ack!" Jojo cried out as he lost his balance.
The masked boy took advantage of the situation and gave him a forceful shove. Jojo was knocked right into the water.
"Come on, Jojo, you're not going to let that freak get the better of you!" Calvin shouted.
Jojo wasn't done yet. He grabbed onto a rock and held on as the water rushed past him.
"Finish him off!" Chelsea shouted at the masked boy. "He's still down."
The masked boy hopped over to where Jojo was hanging on and tried to kick his arm off. Jojo refused to let go, though, and instead grabbed onto the masked boy's leg. The masked boy couldn't resist as Jojo tossed him into the water and over the edge.
"Jojo wins another round for the Monster Mountains," Chris declared.
"You rock, man!" Elijah exclaimed.
Confessional:
Chelsea-Wow, Jojo is pretty impressive. I mean, yeah he's a bit of a jerkhead and he beat our team. But he sure is strong and determined. Those are the qualities we look for in our jocks. And Masky did great too.
Jojo-No one gets the better of me ever. I'm a beast!
"And we're up to Misha versus Garfield," Chris declared.
"You can do it, Garfield," Matilda cheered, "but, like, don't hurt the little girl."
"Wouldn't dream of it," Garfield replied.
"Are you sure you can do this, Misha?" Ilona asked. "You're not going to get scared?"
"Don't worry," Misha replied.
"Get ready," Chris exclaimed as they got into position. "Go!"
Misha jumped backwards as Garfield came at her. Misha never once lost her balance or wobbled as she moved from rock to rock. Garfield also managed to keep pretty good balance, but still slip occasionally.
"Come here, come here," Garfield exclaimed as he took several swipes at her.
Misha was able to always evade his grasp. Eventually, though, she allowed for him to catch up with her.
"Now I've got you," Garfield exclaimed.
"Please don't hurt me!" Misha cried using the most pathetic voice she could manage. "I'm so scared."
"Oh," Garfield hesitated uncertainly.
"Whoa, I'm slipping!" Misha exclaimed as she pretended to swerve back and forth.
Garfield instinctively reached out to help her, but she leaned forward and 'tripped' right into his chest. Garfield was knocked right into the water and was swept over the edge.
"Misha progresses to the next round," Chris declared. "Raging Rivers, this challenge does not seem to suit you as so far only one has made it."
"Go me!" Matilda cheered.
Chelsea helped Garfield out of the water and said, "Don't worry, no one blames you for going easy on her."
"I do," Pamela scoffed. "I can't believe you fell for that."
"Fell for what?" Garfield asked.
"The whole, defensiveless little girl act," Pamela said with a 'duh' tone. "She pushed you into the water."
"Nah, she just slipped," Garfield said. "It was my fault."
"Okay, I'm going to argue that it was your fault," Pamela said. "But you've got to be blind not to realize that she played you."
Confessional:
Pamela-I don't know what makes me angrier. The fact that Misha thinks she act all innocent and play dirty like that, or the fact that everyone fell for it!
Misha-Like I said, too easy.
"Okay, Rivers," Chris said. "You're down to your two repeats, Chelsea and Pamela."
"Which really only counts as one," Chelsea said as she shot a dirty look at Pamela.
"Well you can go first, Chelsea," Chris said. "And you'll be up against Elijah."
"Elijah, Elijah, you sad clown," Chelsea cheered, "I'm afraid you're going down!"
"You can handle her, Elijah," Calvin said.
"Yeah, and besides it's not like we need any more of us to win," Elijah replied.
"That's not the point," Calvin said. "Just show her who's boss."
The two faced each other from their separate rocks.
"Begin!" Chris exclaimed.
Both campers charged right at each other.
"Hiya!" Chelsea exclaimed as she slapped and her opponent.
Elijah retaliated by slapping back at her. The two continued in a girlish slapfight with neither one pulling ahead.
"This is ridiculous," Calvin scoffed. "Just push her."
"Oh, right," Elijah replied as he Chelsea into the water.
Chelsea struggled to stay afloat, but she couldn't go against the forceful current. She tried to grab onto something, and eventually something grabbed her. A branch hanging over the water snagged her shirt.
"Success!" she cheered.
However, this placed a new problem on her: she couldn't move.
"Come on, come on!" she grumbled as she tried to wiggle free.
Eventually she got free, but had to give up her shirt to do so. She landed back in the water and pulled herself onto a rock. It was at this point that Elijah's brain stopped functioning. He could only stare at Chelsea's wet bra. He began to drool as splutter incomprehensibly.
"Elijah, snap out of it!" Calvin shouted.
But Elijah couldn't hear him in his daze. Instead he made an incredibly easy target for Chelsea to kick over the edge.
"And the Raging Rivers get their second win!" Chris announced. "Chelsea will be progressing to the next round."
Confessional:
Elijah-Hey, you can't blame me. She was pretty hot, and as far I know, she wasn't psycho.
"Not for the final match of the first round," Chris exclaimed. "It's Pamela versus Calvin."
"Well, there's evil versus evil for you," Briony scoffed.
"We're so dead," Matilda moaned as she slapped her forehead.
"I'll be done in a few seconds," Calvin told his team.
The two reached the top and took their positions.
"Ready, campers?" Chris exclaimed. "Go!"
Pamela took a few steps closer to Calvin. Calvin just grinned and remained stationary.
"Well, aren't you going to jump?" Calvin asked.
"No," Pamela replied before punching him directly in the nose.
Calvin stumbled backwards and over the waterfall. He landed on his back on a flat rock, before sliding off and landing on his front on another rock. He then slid right into the water.
"Wow…"Chris said. "Pamela progresses to the next round."
Confessional:
Calvin-What the hell was that? Oh, that freak is so dead right now.
Briony-That has got to be the most awesome thing I have seen yet. I don't care if Pamela's evil, she suddenly went way up in my books.
Chelsea-Okay, I was not expecting that. But I guess I can't complain.
Pamela-I'm not losing this game until I take that half-sized brat out. At least when I cheat I'm open about it, but she had no decency.
"Okay, it's time for round two," Chris declared. "Raging Rivers, this is really going to test your endurance skills as the three of you are going to have to go through all the remaining Mountains."
"Bring it on," Chelsea said
"You can do it!" Garfield cheered.
"We believe it you," the masked boy added.
"My the fates smile upon you," Desdemona added.
Everyone waited expectantly for Riley to add something. However, the boy had fallen asleep under a tree.
"Hey, come on," Garfield said as he poked him. "The game's still going on."
"Hey, I tried and I failed," Riley protested. "The moral is that I should just stop trying and I should sleep more."
Garfield just rolled his eyes.
"We can totally take down three wimpy girls," Jojo exclaimed.
"Don't underestimate them," Ilona said. "They could surprise us."
"Yeah, like how Calvin learned," Stanley laughed.
"Shut up!" Calvin snapped.
He then pulled Jojo aside and whispered, "Whatever you do, I want you to make sure Pamela suffers a humiliating defeat."
"Can do," Jojo replied.
"First up, Chelsea versus Stanley," Chris exclaimed.
"Let me show you how it's done, Calvin," Stanley smirked.
"I said, shut up!" Calvin snapped.
"Just so you know," Stanley said as he faced Chelsea, "I'm gay so you're little trick won't work on me."
"Good, I'd like to know that I have a competent opponent," Chelsea replied.
"Hey," Elijah called out offended.
"Go!" Chris exclaimed.
The two eyed each other before making their moves. Chelsea moved towards Stanley, who immediately delivered a quick kick towards her. Chelsea pulled back while maintaining her balance. Stanley forced her back as he charge at her again. He continued to swing at her, not giving her a chance to fight back.
"Knock him out, Chelsea!" Matilda cheered.
"Yeah…go us," Riley cheered unenthusiastically. "There, I cheered, can I go back to sleep now?"
"Stay strong, Sir Stanley!" Sasha cheered.
"Personally, I don't care which one wins," Calvin remarked. "They'd both be pretty satisfying."
After continuing to dodge blows from Stanley, Chelsea decided to change up her strategy. Pretending to be hit, she stumbled into the water. However, she was prepared for the current this time and swam straight for Stanley.
"Huh," Stanley exclaimed as she grabbed onto his ankle.
With a tug she managed to pull him into the water with her. The two of them struggled together as they flowed through the river. Chelsea tried to pull herself out, but it was Stanley's turn to strike and he held her back. The two of them were headed over the edge of the waterfall together. Chelsea clenched her teeth as she broke away from Stanley and tried to grab onto one of the jagged rocks. It was painful, but it worked. Stanley wasn't so lucky.
"Stanley is out," Chris declared as Stanley splashed into the water. "Chelsea moves onto another round."
"You were right," Stanley said as he got out of the water. "She did surprise me."
"Up next," Chris announced. "It's Pamela versus Keith."
"Should I be worried?" Keith asked.
"You'd better be," Pamela snarled.
Confessional:
Calvin-Well, it would be nice if Keith kicked her ass, that's not going to happen. Look at him, he's scrawny.
Chelsea-We need to get Pamela this determined more often. She could finally be of use to our team.
Pamela-Chris should just pair me off with Misha so we can get this over with.
Keith and Pamela eyed each other. Pamela bared her teeth and him and Keith cringed.
"Begin!" Chris exclaimed.
Keith jumped away from Pamela as she leapt after him with fire in her eyes. Keith continued to evade her nervously. However, Pamela managed to catch him as she grabbed onto his ponytail.
"Whoa!" Keith cried as she picked him up by the hair and began to spin him around.
Like an Olympian tossing a discus she sent Keith flying through the sky and into the water.
"Okay, in a completely unnecessary bout of violence, Pamela progresses to the next round," Chris declared. "Up next, Matilda versus Misha."
"D'oh," Pamela exclaimed as she slapped her face. "Look, don't fall for her."
"Hmph, and I'm sure you're the most trustworthy person ever," Matilda sniffed.
"Be careful, Misha," Ilona cautioned.
"I'll be fine," Misha promised.
"It's the battle of the sweeties!" Chris exclaimed as the two girls faced each other.
"Now if you want to, like, back out now, that's totally okay," Matilda said to Misha.
"That's okay," Misha replied.
"Start!" Chris said.
Misha started by jumping straight for Matilda. Matilda was thrown off guard and stumbled backwards into the water. After floundering in the water, she was able to grab onto a branch and pull herself up. Misha charged straight for her again, but Matilda was ready to retaliate this time. Before Misha could strike, Matilda shoved her back. Misha fell backwards and it was her turn to get swept away. She was able to grab onto a rock, but she was stuck hanging over the edge now.
"Help!" she cried trying to make herself sound desperate. "You have to help me, I'm so scared!"
Matilda stepped towards her uneasily.
"Don't do it!" Pamela shouted. "It's a trick."
"I'm going to fall!" Misha cried. "Please, help me! I don't want to fall."
Matilda made up her mind and reached out her hand to help up Misha. Misha pulled herself up with a little too much strength. The force caused Matilda to stumble forward and splash right into the river.
"I guess that's a point for Misha," Chris said.
"I am so, so, sorry," Misha sobbed. "I swear, that was an accident."
"Liar," Pamela grumbled under her breath.
Confessional:
Pamela-I think I can recognize the signs of someone playing dirty. Look at Misha, she's got that confident attitude, even if she tries to cover it by acting sweet. But my stupid team is being stupid and doesn't realize that.
Matilda-I, like, totally don't regret that. Saving scared little girls is why hotter than winning challenges.
Misha-Ha, ha, it's actually working to my advantage that Pamela is out to get me. Since everyone already hates her, anything she says against me, just makes me look more innocent.
"Raging Rivers, you're down to two," Chris noted. "While the Monster Mountains still have four. Next up will be Chelsea versus Ilona again."
"Time for the rematch!" Chelsea declared eagerly.
"She doesn't stand a chance against you, Ilona," Briony said.
"Oh, I think she does," Ilona replied. "But that just means I'll have to give her my all."
Once more the girls faced off.
"You show her, Chelsea!" Matilda cheered. "No one pushes you around like that!"
"Girls, begin!" Chris exclaimed.
Ilona stepped towards Chelsea. Chelsea stepped back.
"Iiii-ya!" Ilona exclaimed as she sent a powerful, flying kick right into Chelsea's chest.
Chelsea was knocked back far and once again was headed straight for the edge.
"Ugh, I have to this again?" she moaned.
But she went through with her maneuver. She dropped over the edge and landed herself on one of the jagged rocks. She nearly slipped several times, but finally found her balance.
"Come and get me," she called upwards.
"Be careful, Ilona!" Stanley shouted. "She's up to something."
Ilona jumped over to the rock that hung over the edge. From there she was able to leap to another rock jutting out of the falling water.
"Here I am," Ilona challenged.
The two girls locked eyes. Chelsea made the next move. She launched herself forward and grabbed onto the rock Ilona was standing on. However, instead of climbing up, she used it to swing herself to a rock on the other side. From there she had a shot at Ilona's back before the other girl turned around. She charged, but Ilona managed to spin around and resist her. The two girls both pushed on the other as they tried to remain on the small, slippery surface.
"Come on, Chelsea, knock her right off there!" the masked boy exclaimed.
"Keep your strength up, Commander!" Sasha shouted.
Neither girl looked to be moving, but then suddenly Chelsea released her grip. This was enough to cause Ilona to lose her balance and fall into the water.
"Chelsea manages another win!" Chris exclaimed.
"Well, we're not looking too great now," Briony sighed. "There goes our best fighter."
"Yeah right," Jojo scoffed. "Are you forgetting about me?"
"Now it's time for Pamela versus Sasha," Chris said.
"Ah, you shall feel the fury like none other, foul demoness!" Sasha declared. "Your kind shall no longer pollute the land with evil."
"Well, when I'm done with you, you won't be spreading your pixie dust of positivity anymore," Pamela retorted.
Confessional:
Pamela-Is it seriously too much to ask that I just get a chance to fight Misha? I don't like helping my team win, but I'll do it if I get to take out that little brat.
Elijah-Pamela's pretty hot too. She's got the bad girl thing going on and she can be pretty badass too. I wonder if Calvin would approve.
Calvin-Pamela is in for a long, painful fall!
Pamela and Sasha stood on the rocks now.
"I feel wrong cheering for Pamela over such a cute girl," Matilda noted.
"As wrong as it may be, I'd really rather not have to have to fight three more guys on my own," Chelsea remarked.
"Fight!" Chris declared.
Sasha wasted no time in charging straight for Pamela. Pamela wasted no time in getting physical. As soon as Sasha was in her range she swung her arm back and forth. She managed to smack Sasha several time, but Sasha got in some blows as well.
"Die, demoness!" Sasha exclaimed as she tried to thrash Pamela.
However, Pamela was strong enough to hold Sasha back and thus she couldn't do any real damage. Pamela gave Sasha a shove and knocked her into the water, but this didn't deter her. Sasha fought the current and was able to cling onto a rock. Pamela tried to kick her down, but Sasha grabbed onto her foot instead.
"Let. Go. Of. Me!" Pamela cried as she swung Sasha back and forth. Sasha eventually got dizzy and let go. This gave Pamela the opportunity to shove her off the rock and sent her over the edge of the waterfall.
"The Raging Rivers have tied it up," Chris remarked. "It's just Jojo and Misha left now against Pamela and Chelsea."
"Oh, I am feeling so tired right now," Chelsea sighed as she got up and ready to fight again.
"Don't worry, you're doing great," Garfield said.
"Oh, how come when she complains about being tired, it's perfectly fine?" Riley whined.
"For this next battle it shall be Chelsea versus Jojo," Chris declared.
"Hm, cheerleader versus jock," Calvin remarked. "This should be interesting."
"Begin!" Chris exclaimed.
Chelsea stood her ground as Jojo approached her. She tried to analyze to best way to take him out. She didn't want to risk using the jagged rocks on the edge unless it was absolutely necessary, yet Jojo was a powerhouse. The jock reached her and she struck out at him. Her hand just bounced off his chest harmlessly.
"Ha, you hit like a girl," Jojo laughed.
Jojo wrapped his arm around her. Chelsea tried to resist. She clawed as his face and kicked at his body, but it was all futile. He was too strong and she was too tired. She didn't have the energy to find a way out of this one. She just gave up as Jojo dropped her over the edge.
"And that does it for Chelsea!" Chris exclaimed. "Pamela is the final Raging River and she's up against Misha."
"Finally!" Pamela cheered.
Confessional:
Chelsea-Yep, that Jojo is really something. He's the kind of guy I'd date if I was in school…and wasn't trying to beat him for five million dollars. Still, he is just so strong and handsome…
Pamela-It's time for Misha to go down. Her crocodile tears won't work on me.
Misha-Pfft, Pamela doesn't scare me.
"Pamela scares me," Misha whimpered. "But I think I can do it."
The two girls got up and into position.
"Please be merciful," Misha said sweetly.
"Ha, no," Pamela scoffed.
"Fight!" Chris exclaimed.
Misha started out by backing away from Pamela. Pamela followed her, but was sure to stay out of her range. Both girls continued like this, but Pamela had a strategy. She was herding Misha over to the edge of the water.
"Take this!" Pamela cried as she swiped at Misha.
The other girl just swerved to avoid her. Misha began to strike back now. She delivered a series of kicks to Pamela. Pamela stayed strong though and just kept swinging at Misha. Finally, one strong blow was enough to knock Misha over the edge.
"Don't do it!" Misha cried. "I'll give up if you just pull me up, I promise!"
"Not happening," Pamela smirked as she kicked Misha over the edge.
"Pamela is the victor!" Chris exclaimed. "It's down to one on one now."
Ilona helped Misha out of the water. The smaller girl was sobbing uncontrollably as Ilona comforted her.
"There, there, you did great," Ilona said.
"Yeah, but now it's time to see someone do awesome!" Jojo announced.
"Meh, I think I'll forfeit," Pamela said with a shrug.
"Oh, I should have known," Jojo laughed. "You must realize that you're no match for me. You're just a scrawny girl."
Pamela tensed up with rage.
"You are so dead!" she cried.
Confessional:
Matilda-I know Pamela like pretty much is the only chance we have of winning now, but what she did to Misha was totally not cool. She's a nasty girl no matter how many crates of food she wins for us.
Pamela-If I had to pick the person I hate the most right now I would say everyone! However, as of right now the person who has gotten on nerves is Jojo!
Jojo-It's payback time, Pamela. You mess with my bro and I'll mess you up hard!
Desdemona-Something I predicted actually came true? Time to rub it in their faces.
"Ah yes, just as I foresaw an unlikely hero has arisen," Desdemona announced.
"That's true, I certainly wasn't expecting Pamela to be the last one remaining," the masked boy replied.
"But can she really stand a chance against Jojo?" Chelsea asked. "That guy's tough…and dreamy."
"What was that last thing you said?" Garfield asked.
"Oh, nothing," Chelsea said quickly.
"Pamela, Jojo, the both of you are the final competitors for your team," Chris declared. "The winner gets the crate and the loser gets nothing. Are you ready? Go!"
Jojo charged at Pamela who charged right back at him. However, Pamela dodged at the last second and Jojo stumbled forward. She turned around and tried to use his momentum to shove him into the water. It didn't work. Jojo elbowed Pamela and knocked her back instead. Then he scooped her up.
"Oh no you don't! Pamela roared as she sunk her teeth in his arm.
"Ahhh!" Jojo cried out in pain as he let go of Pamela.
Pamela delivered several more kicks all over him. Yet he was able to stay put.
"Come on, just drop already!" Pamela screamed as she punched and kicked wherever she could.
"You're pathetic!" Jojo retorted as he slapped her across the face.
The pain shocked Pamela and caused her to lose her focus. The allowed Jojo to give her a firm shove into the water.
"I'm. Not. Done. Yet!" Pamela cried as she dug her nails into Jojo's shoe.
With a furious tug she dragged Jojo down into the water with her. Once she had him, she latched onto his neck.
"You're going down!" she roared.
"No, I'm not!" he retorted as he swung back at her.
The two continued to struggle as they neared the waterfall. With a final kick, Jojo sent Pamela over the edge, then got swept up with her. Both hit the water one after another.
"And with that," Chris concluded, "I declare that the winners are…"
…
…
…
…
…
"The Monster Mountains!"
Both Pamela and Jojo emerged from the water and joined their teams.
"But that should have been a tie," Chelsea complained.
"Nope, Pamela fell into the water first," Chris declared. "Monster Mountains, enjoy your reward. Raging Rivers, better look next time."
Confessional:
Pamela-I'm not mad…well, not as mad. I showed Jojo what he gets for messing with me, and I got to disappoint my team by losing the challenge.
Garfield-I guess it's only fair that the other team gets the food. We've got fish, that don't even have that.
Jojo-Lesson learned: Don't keep a hungry quarterback from his next meal.
(Monster Mountains)
Jojo had hauled the crate over to his shelter.
"I'd say this call for a victory feast!" Sasha exclaimed.
"Ha, no," Calvin laughed. "The only one who deserves anything from this crate is Jojo. And he plans to only share with his friends. Right, Jojo?"
"That's right," Jojo replied.
"This is insane," Ilona exclaimed. "That was a group effort. Jojo never would have won if it hadn't been for all of us."
"Hey, I don't think you want to mess with me," Jojo said. "You saw what I did to everyone else."
"Let it go," Stanley sighed. "It's not worth it."
However, Ilona's group had returned to the forest, Keith came to visit Calvin and his team.
"So, since I got you those mushrooms, perhaps you could share some of that food," Keith asked.
Calvin looked reluctant, but sighed, "Fine, I'm feeling generous."
Keith began helping himself, and when Calvin turned away he stuffed his hoodie full of what he could grab.
"Well, that should do, "he said. "Thanks."
He then scurried after Ilona's group to hand out what he had grabbed.
Confessional:
Keith-Well, I've got to be in everyone's favor. After all, I don't want them to hate me when I start eliminating them.
(Conclusion)
"Wow, what a brawl that was," Chris remarked. "Several contestants proved that they can be a force to be reckoned with. Next episode, though, someone else will be leaving. Will Pamela's idol keep her safe? Will Desdemona put another plan in action? Will Calvin be dethroned? Fine out on the next Total Drama Stranded!"
(Not Quite Loser Island)
Shannon had been chasing after the monkey all day. She wielded a stick now and was closing in on it.
"This time I got you and it's not more Little Miss Nice Girl!" she exclaimed.
The monkey dropped to the ground with the idol. However, as it ran it stepped in something sticky. It struggled to get free, but couldn't.
"I'll take that!" Shannon exclaimed as she picked up the idol.
However, it was then that a massive, hairy, black spider crawled down from the trees. It pulled the screeching monkey in closer and devoured it in one bite. Shannon screamed in terror, then ran as fast as she could with the idol clutched tightly in her hands.
