DISCLAIMER: This was a story for fun. If you wanted mindless fun, this was for you. If you didn't, then you probably didn't get what you were looking for.
DISCLAIMER AGAIN: From Animals to the Ice Age (also Animals!) A random concept, with a fairly more polished execution, but still totally weird. I promise I'll make a cohesive story soon. Maybe. Probably not. Happens right after the third movie because I really don't like the fourth. (or, anyway, the upcoming fifth)
DISCLAIMER THREE: The ACTUAL grand finale! Who shall win? Read below, dummies!
Episode 9 - The Votes are Revealed
Pirates: Welcome back to the reading of the votes! Right now we'll know who won the whole thing!
Buck: MY GOD I'M NERVOUS!
Diego: Hey, one way or another, it's been a fun distraction *Taps Buck's back*
Buck: DON'T TOUCH ME!
*Scrat nibbles nervously on an acorn*
Pirates: Now let's watch the votes because hey, who cares about privacy? No one's being anonymous here!
*They begin playing the votes*
*CONFESSIONAL* Manny: I said I'm voting for Diego, and I'm doing it. And as soon as I'm getting home, I'm going on a diet.
Pirates: That's 1 vote Diego.
*Audience claps, Diego smiles*
Audience: We're not clapping for you we're clapping because Manny has decided to take steps towards being healthier and more comfortable with his body and no one should shame him for it.
Diego: Oh.
*CONFESSIONAL* Eddie: You're EVIL Diego! That's why I'm voting for Scrat to get this Pangae in order!
Buck: Just when you think he might get some sort of personal growth, he doesn't. Nice.
Manny: Votes still aren't for presidency, Eddie.
Eddie: Aw, come on! At least this makes for a neat bookend :)
Pirates: That's 1 vote Diego, 1 vote Scrat.
*Audience claps*
*CONFESSIONAL* Rudy: Growl (Yup) *He shows a badly scribbled paper with Buck written on it*
*Audience claps*
Rudy: Growl (Eh, wouldn't be fair if it was any other way)
Pirates: We're tied at one vote each with four votes left!
*CONFESSIONAL* Crash: Chalk up a vote for whoever Eddie voted, a'ight? Yeah, I'm done here! Woo-hoo!
Pirates: Scrat takes the lead with two votes, Buck and Diego are tied at 1 vote each.
*CONFESSIONAL* Ellie: Uh, you know, I wasn't joking. I'd do the same and I think it's super good you risked your position for someone you care about. I'll be rooting for you, Buck.
*Buck blushes, Rudy scratches his head*
Pirates: Buck and Scrat are tied at 2 votes each, Diego has one vote.
Diego: Ah, it's okay, it's okay.
*CONFESSIONAL* Sid: Sorry, Scrat, but I could see I was being played when you said you spoke your mind. You didn't speak until the end. Uh.. as much as I'm conflicted about it, I'm still voting for Diego, I've used him in the end and I think I can forgive him now. Go and win, 'ye big ol cat!
Pirates: And WOAH it's a TIE with 2 votes for everyone! Yay, I love suspense!
Diego: Are you kidding me-
Buck: -that the winner-
Scrat: -comes down to Tony.
*Everyone looks at Tony. Tony looks at them*
Tony: Oh, oh yeah, and what choice did I do? Pay me 100 rocks to find out! They're back on the market, babyyyy!
Pirates: We'll find out AFTER THIS BREAK!
*The Pirates slowly reveal Tony's vote*
...
...
...
...
...

-DIEGO-
Tony: What? He said he'd pay me three times what Scrat was paying me. I couldn't go back on THAT!
Diego: Wait... I won?
Pirates: Yes you did!
Diego: Oh, alright! *A truck of a million acorns falls on him* Actually, I don't even eat acorns.
Scrat: I'll take them.
Diego: Well, whatever.
*Diego goes and picks up Sid and puts him in his back*
Diego: A'ight, man, some of this is yours too.
Sid: Aw, Diego, I knew I couldn't stay mad at you. Glad you won, lil' buddy, you really are the biggest predator here.
*Buck is just staring deadpan at the world*
Buck: Darnit. I lost.
Rudy: GROWL (Don't worry, man, 2nd place ain't so bad)
Buck: Yeah, you're right. Now... Rudy...
*He takes out a ring*
Buck: Will you marry me? *Everyone looks at him*
Rudy: NO! (YES! THIS PARTICULAR GROWL MEANS YES!)
*Everyone claps*
Pirates: Now let's give some time for the pre-merge losers for some final comments! Take it away, Manny!
Manny: ...I hate everyone here.
Eddie: We do too, big buddy!
Crash: Anyway, this was fun.
Ellie: Yup! Even if we went out early!
Tony: I HELD THE ULTIMATE POWER!
Pirates: And so ends this amazing season of TOTAL DRAMA ICE AGE. Bet you didn't expect some of that, did 'ya? I didn't either! If you want an alternate ending, just change Tony's vote, alright? It's that easy. Otherwise, SEE YA.
*Cuts to me at my desk*
Me: Finished! Alright, I made a competition fanfic about The Ice Age, what should be my next one?
*Me hovers their finger around a bunch of weird options and blindly touches 'Pingu'*
Me: Alright, no, I may need to think about this :v
-THE END-
