Chapter update! With this chapter, the drama will be pumped up a little bit, enjoy!
"Last time on Total Drama Rankor Island, the drama between our teams continued as they went through our relay race. Kevin and Asuka have claimed leadership of the Black Knights, much to Don's chagrin. The Rooks have also gained a leader in the form of Drake, or so they thought, it looks like he might just be in it for himself! During the relay race, Drake found the coveted McLean Invincibility Statue and his sights now turned to finding the Chef Hatchet Elimination Statue, unbeknownst to him, Lucy already found the Chef Statue! What sort of challenge will our teams go through tonight? Who will be the one leaving on the Hurl of Shame? And will the weather get any weirder? Find out tonight on Total Drama Rankor Island!"
It was the day after Samantha's elimination, Lacey was outside of the girls cabin spray painting the walls by herself. Asuka, Lila and Dorothy approached her, the former two looked sympathetic while the latter kept her monotonous expression.
"Hey Lacey, you alright?" Asuka asked.
"Hm? Yeah I'm fine, why do you ask?" Lacey answered, the girls seemed surprised at how calm Lacey was.
"You're not upset that your sister was voted off?" Dorothy asked.
"Not really, if she stayed then there might have been a chance I would have to go up against her."
"I suppose that's true." Lila noted, still a bit unsure.
"Anyway, why don't we change the subject? My family isn't really something I like talking about." Lacey asked.
"Oh, sure. Hey Lila, this may be a bit sudden, but Lacey and I have been talking and we want to help you be a bit more... how should I put this, artistic." Asuka said.
"Really? That sounds ever-so interesting!"
"Great, now we have an important question for you Lila!" Lacey began, "Do you consider yourself street smart of book smart?"
"I'd say a little of both.'Lila answered.
"Ok then, can you give me a dollar?" Asuka asked, Lila handed Asuka the money which she promptly stuffed into her pocket.
"You're book smart!" Asuka announced, she and Lacey started laughing, even Lila and Dorothy managed to laugh a bit! "Hehe, sorry about that Lila. Here's your dollar."
As the four girls began to converse, the boys seemed to be getting along as well. Kevin and Eddy were arm wrestling, with the rest of the guys (minus Drake) cheering them on.
"Go! Go! Go! Go! Go!" They chanted, in one swift motion, Kevin ended up finally beating Eddy.
"Heh, I win this round dude!" Kevin gloated.
"Yeah, yeah, but just wait until next time!" Eddy replied, the two shared a fist bump.
"Alright, who's next?"
None of the guys stood up to challenge Kevin, except for Don who was eager to arm wrestle. Isaac noticed Dan, who watched them all with a bored look on his face.
"You alright dude?" Isaac asked.
"Yeah I'm good, I'm not of a social guy. I have nothing against you guys, it's just a personal thing."
"Yeah I understand, being around people can make some people nervous."
"I don't get nervous around people, I just don't like being social." Dan explained.
*confessionals*
Isaac: Danny's a cool guy, it would be interesting to see how far he'll go in this game.
Dan: The guys are alright, I just wish they weren't so loud.
Don: Now this is what I like! Us guys just hanging out and partying!
Drake: Seeing the other boys act like a bunch of... neanderthals, makes me absolutely sick. Unfortunately I need them to get farther into this game.
*end confessionals*
"Attention campers, it's challenge time! Better hurry up too, you might not want to keep our guest waiting!" Chris announced.
The campers all arrived at the dock, there was a young man standing with Chris and Chef. He was tall and well-built, he wore a green shirt and blue shorts with army boots.
"For those of you who haven't seen Total Drama Revenge of the Island, this is Brick, and he'll be helping out with the challenge today!" Chris said.
"Morning cadets! It's a pleasure to meet you all, I hope you're ready for today!" Brick greeted enthusiastically.
"Now today's challenge overall is reasonably simple, a game of capture the flag. You'll each have a home base with your own base to protect, whoever gets the other teams flag and brings it back to their home base wins invincibility for their team." Chris explained. "Now you're probably wondering why Brick is here in the first place. Well, we thought it would be a good idea for you to get some words of encouragement from an army cadet! So without further adieu, take it away Soldier!"
"Thank you Chris, now Cadets, even though this is just a game you should treat it as if it were war. As you know, your objective is to retrieve your enemy's flag and take over their base. Now there are two main ways you can accomplish this task, you can either take the basic route and go in guns blazing, or use the art of stealth to your advantage. Either way, it won't be easy for any of you. Do any of you have any questions?" Brick announced, none of the campers said anything.
"Now before the challenge starts, you're all going to need these." Chris said, handing each camper a paintball gun and goggles. "And one more thing, don't bother looking for the McLean Invincibility Statue or the Chef Hatchet Statue anymore, they've both been found!" Some of the contestants gasped in shock, Drake smirked to himself.
*confessionals*
Chuck: It was awesome to meet Brick! He was one of my favorite contestants from season 4! It really stinks that he didn't make it farther than he did, and that he didn't get to compete in All-Stars.
Rodrick: Hm, I wonder how my dad would feel if he met Brick, they both really like the army.
Eddy: *he pulls out a pair of dog tags from his pocket* Seeing Brick here makes me think of my brother, he's overseas right now and I keep praying what happened to my friends Uncle doesn't happen to him...
*end confessionals*
The two teams had set themselves up in their respective bases, making their plans. The bases themselves were two-story, castle-esque buildings, the flags were black and white for their respective teams. The bases were several yards apart, in a clearing with several trees and piles of sandbags between, acting as cover for the two teams.
"Ok team, we should split ourselves up into groups. One group will attack the Rooks head on while another will try to sneak in. The rest of you will stay here and try to make sure they don't steal our flag. Any questions?" Asuka stated.
"Yeah, who's going to stay behind?" Eddy asked.
"Not me, that's for sure! I'm take them all head on! I'll get that flag by myself!" Don gloated.
"Ok? ... Anybody else want to go on the attack group?" Kevin asked.
"I prefer to do things quietly so I'll be with the stealth group." Asuka noted.
"There are seven of us here, so one of the groups will have three people." Chuck said.
"Right, I think the defensive group should have three people. Eddy, do you think you can hold down the fort?" Kevin asked.
"Not a problem."
"Alright, we've got at least one person for each group, now as for everyone else..." Asuka said.
The Rooks had a much quicker time deciding the groups, mostly because Drake was picking the groups for the team.
"Christine, Lila, Lucy and Rodrick you four will stay here and protect our flag. Tina and Lacey will be our main offensive force, you will provide a distraction for me and Dorothy. We will sneak into the Knights' base and take their flag."
"Are you sure this will work? The Knights will probably make a plan just like ours." Lacey acknowledged.
"Perhaps, but my plan Is More precise, more well thought out than anything they could come up with." Drake replied smugly.
"If you say so." Lacey said, preparing her paintball gun.
*confessionals*
Drake: Despite my well thought out plan, there is still a considerable chance that the Black Knights will win, if they manage to get into the base then Rodrick is our only chance to push them back, but Rodrick is most likely too stupid to be able to stop them. I need to quickly win the challenge and and carry my team forward.
Lacey: I get the feeling Drake doesn't think we're capable of winning the challenge without him.
Lucy: I think our team might be lost without Drake! Should I tell him that I have the Chef Statue?
Rodrick: Drake doesn't think we're smart enough to handle ourselves? Well, wait until he sees what I have planned!
*end confessionals*
"Attention campers, the challenge starts now!" Chris announced.
Tina, Lacey, Dorothy and Drake dashed from their base with their paintball guns in their hands, Lacey seemed rather eager to start the challenge.
'Oh this is going to rock!' Lacey thought to herself.
"Do you girls ember the plan?" Drake asked.
"Of course we do, what do you take us for?!" Tina snapped.
The Knights had already split up into their groups, Don and Kevin were in the offensive group while Asuka and Dan in the stealth group. It didn't take very long for Kevin and Donny to encounter Tina and Lacey.
"Hey boys!" Tina greeted with a seductive purr.
"Tina stay focused!" Lacey hissed.
"Shush! Just roll with it!" Tina replied.
"Hey babe, lookin' hot!" Don greeted back at her, a calm smirk on his face.
"Dude what are you doing? Stay focused!" Kevin snapped, nudging Don in the arm.
"Back off dude!" Don remarked, shoving Kevin.
"Come on man, we have a challenge to do!"
"Don't embarrass me in front of the babes Kev!" Don spat, he looked ready to fight. The girls took the opportunity to move forward.
"I have to admit Tina, that was a clever move you pulled! Sneaky, but clever!" Lacey praised.
"What can I say, guys love me!" Tina boasted. The two girls ran towards the entrance of the Knights base, but Eddy, Chuck and Isaac, who were defending the base, began shooting paintballs at them. Unfortunately for the boys, they missed almost every shot they fired, allowing the girls to run inside.
Lucy, Christine and Lila were listening to Rodrick, who was telling the girls about his plan.
"If we can manage to do this we'll win easily!" Rodrick said.
"What are we going to need?" Christine asked.
"We're going to need some big leaves, twigs and vines. Lila, do you think you could get those things for me?"
"Of course Rodrick, I'll be back in a second!"
"Good, now Christine you're a smart girl. Do you think you can design something that would block or trap the embers of the other teams?" Rodrick asked.
"I suppose I could be able to do that, but I may need some help putting it all together. Can you and Lucy help me?"
"Sure I can help, this sounds like fun!" Lucy said gleefully, Rodrick nodded in agreement.
"Alright, if this works then we should win without too much difficulty. Now we just have to wait for Lila to come back." Rodrick noted.
*confessionals*
Lucy: I was pretty surprised to see Rodrick take control like that, he should do it more often! If him and Drake teamed up like that, we'd never lose!
Christine: Rodrick honestly surprised me when he took over. I never really would've guessed a guy like him was so smart.
Lila: Wow, seeing Rodrick like that was ever-so... awesome!
Rodrick: I've been kind of quiet for a while, but that's actually my strategy. See if you keep everyone's expectations low then blindside everyone when they don't expect it you'll show them how much of a threat you can be.
*end confessionals*
Drake and Dorothy arrived at the entrance to the Knights base, the two were ready to head inside and take the flag, but two people they weren't expecting to see had arrived.
"What are you two doing here?!" Drake asked, he didn't look or sound happy.
"We figured you could use a little bit of help." Tina said with a wink.
"You fools! You were supposed to keep the Knights main attackers at bay!" Drake said sternly.
"Well were here now, we might as well head inside!" Lacey replied, heading into the Knights base.
'Unbelievable. Absolutely unbelievable, these fools can't even do one simple thing correctly!' Drake thought to himself.
The four of them entered the base, it didn't take very long for them to encounter Eddy, Chuck and Isaac defending their flag.
"Y-you're not getting past us!" Isaac said, a bit unsure of himself but he tried to act as calm as he could in front of Lacey.
"Stand aside, you look as scared and pathetic as a puppy in the rain. You can save both us and yourself the trouble and move out of our way." Drake threatened. Suddenly a paintball hit Drake square in the chest, leaving a black spot on it (though it's rather hard to tell since his shirt was black to begin with).
"Nice shot Eddy!" Chuck praised.
"Hehe thanks Chuck. As for you guys, back off!" Eddy remarked.
"It's three against four, you're a fool if you think you have a chance. The odds are stacked against you." Drake noted.
"Don't be so sure Drake, Eddy is just as skilled as I am. He may prove to be rather difficult to beat." Dorothy explained.
"I guess we'll see how good he is, won't we!" Lacey said enthusiastically.
Meanwhile, Asuka and Dan arrived at the entrance to the Rooks' base, they met up with Don and Kevin and Don.
"Glad to see you guys made it." Asuka greeted. "Now we just need to head inside."
"We would've been here faster if Donny here didn't go gaga over Tina." Kevin added.
"Hey, if you looked at her then you'd react the same way!" Don protested, the two looked like they were going to start fighting.
"Look if you want to beat each other to a pulp then thats fine. But do it after the challenge!" Dan said, separating the two.
Chris, Chef and Brick watched the campers compete.
"So who do you think is leaving tonight?" Chris asked.
"Don't care." Chef answered.
"Well personally personally think the Knights will take the win, Kevin and Asuka seem like very good leaders though it's anybody's guess." Brick added.
"Hehe, we'll I guess we'll see!" Chris remarked.
The 4 Rooks were currently in a fire fight against Eddy, Chuck and Isaac. The former proved to be a formidable foe, though the latter two were more or less moving targets.
"Give up, you are both outnumbered and outclassed!" Drake shouted.
"I still won't quit!" Eddy shouted back, managing to hit Drake in the chest.
'I'll be coming for you next, runt...' Drake thought to himself. The fire fight continued, leaving Isaac, Chuck and Tina almost completely coated in paint.
Meanwhile, the Knights on the offensive group stormed the Rooks base, strangely all of the Rooks were gone.
"Pssh, this'll be easy!" Don said, he went to go collect the Rooks' flag but Asuka stopped him.
"You're right, it is easy! Too easy. They're probably planning to ambush us once we get too close." She explained.
"Aww it doesn't matter, I'll take them down before they even take a shot!" Don boasted, he continued toward the flag with the other Knights watching his back, ready to fire.
Suddenly, Don tripped over a vine that had been hidden on the floor, it was the same color as the floor so it blended in with its surroundings. The vine then set off a chain reaction that ended up leaving the 4 Knights trapped in a cage made of reasonably large sticks and leaves. The Rooks stepped out of their hiding spots.
"Good work guys!" Rodrick said, sharing a high five with Lucy.
"How did you do this?" Asuka asked in shock.
"Never doubt the power of the mind!" Christine answered.
Back in the Knights' base, the fire fight was still going with nobody letting up, eventually they all had run out of ammo.
"Looks like we're all out of ammo." Chuck said.
"Really? I never would have guessed." Drake remarked in an annoyed tone.
"There's no need to be a smartass Drake!" Eddy noted.
"Instead of worrying about what I say, you should focus on your flag!" Drake replied, the Knights looked back to see Dorothy taking their flag.
"And the victory goes to the White Rooks!" Chris announced.
"You've got to be kidding me!" Eddy shouted in frustration.
Over in the Rooks' base, the other Knights were frustrated as well.
"Again?! We lost again?!" Kevin yelled.
*confessionals*
Kevin: We might have won if Donny didn't get distracted by Tina, this team can't afford to keep someone who isn't focused on the game.
Eddy: That's our second loss in a row, argh!
Rodrick: So I helped my team win this time, but I'm going to have to lay low for a while now. Lucy, Christine and Lila have probably caught on already, I just hope they don't see me as a threat because of it.
Drake: One by one the Knights will fall.
Don: I might be in trouble this time, I'll have to act fast.
*end confessionals*
Later that day, Christine was sitting outside of the girls cabin, she looked nervous. Asuka noticed Christine's anxiety and went to go talk to her.
"Hey C, you alright?" She asked.
"Yeah I'm fine." Christine answered.
"No you're not, something's clearly bothering you. What's wrong?"
"It's that catapult, it terrifies me! I can't stand it being here! What if my team loses and they vote me off? I'll have to be launched off of the island in that thing!" Christine exclaimed.
"Well have you tried talking to Chris about it?" Asuka asked, she paused for a moment before realizing something. "Wait it's Chris, never mind."
"Maybe there is something I could do..." Christine said ominously.
Nightfall soon came and the Knights took their places for the elimination ceremony. Brick, being the special guest of the day, handed Chris the marshmallow.s
"Before we get this elimination underway I'd just like to thank Brick for joining us." Chris announced.
"Thank you Chris, it was an honor serving you!" Brick replied, saluting Chris.
"Now, onto the eliminations. You know the drill, if I call your name then you're safe. The first marshmallow of the night goes to... Asuka."
.
.
.
.
.
"Next is Danny."
.
.
.
.
.
"Chuck."
.
.
.
.
.
"Eddy."
.
.
.
.
.
"And Isaac. That just leaves Kevin and Don, I'm honestly a bit surprised about who gets the last marshmallow, but it isn't my choice. The last marshmallow of the night goes to..."
.
.
.
.
.
.
.
.
.
.
"Don!" Don caught the marshmallow leaving Kevin and the others struck dumb.
"What?! How could you guys vote me of and keep that dork in the game?!" The jock shouted.
"But we don't vote for you dude! Honest!" Isaac pleaded, Chef grabbed Kevin's arm and put him in the Hurl of Shame.
"Hmm... looks like there might be room for one more!" Chris said with a sly grin on his face.
"I understand hehehe." Chef chuckled, putting Brick in the catapult with Kevin.
"Anything to say before being launched?" Chris asked.
"Cadets, I was very impressed with your performances today, you may have lost the challenge but you've certainly won my respe-" Brick said before getting launched off.
"Yeah that's great. Anyway, the Black Knights are down to just six members! Will they bounce back? Will Don cheat his way to victory? Will Tina creep her way to victory? Will Drake really bring everybody down? Or will Rodrick blitz the competition? And how much can we scare Christine with the Hurl of Shame? Find out next time on Total Drama Rankor Island!"
And the chapter is finished! Sorry this came out relatively late, I've been swamped with college forms and application business, I'll try to get content out as much as I can. Anyway I hope you enjoyed!
