Yay! I whipped up another chappie! Mwahah!
I know, I'm a slow writer -.- I've realized that my chapters keep getting longer and longer... Look at the word count! Almost 9,000! What's crazy! What did we start at, 3,000? I'm trying really hard to keep my chapters at a minimum word count (around 6,000 for this story) but I just can't! I guess there's just too much drama! XD
This chapter is a special one, dedicated to The13TalesOfHamjou for our 100th anniversary! (Extra hugs! 3)
Hope you guys enjoy! I worked really hard :3

"Pleasepleasepleasepleasepleasepleasepleeeeaaaseee ?" Ranae whines.
"nononononononooooo." Shadow mimics.
"Why not?" Ranae inquires.
"Because this is my show. Not yours."
"But Daddy said you had too!"
"What? Did you ask him about this?!"
"Yep, I called him, and he said that it'd be your punishment for breaking his DVD player."
"Well, call him back and tell him I didn't break it. You guys did."
"Hey, it's not my fault you weren't watching us."
"This is ridiculous. What was that, 10 years ago?!"
"Shadow, we have to shoot this scene soon." A young goron, wearing a baseball cap and holding a camera stand states.
"Right. Ranae... Fine, just to get you and Pat off my case." Shadow acquiesces.
"Yay!" Ranae squeals, giving him a kiss on the cheek.
"Blegh, gross..." Shadow groans, walking into the frame of the camera. "Last time on LoZ Total Drama Island...
TP Zelda and her alliance offered Fi on spot in their group, but the choice was a difficult one for the wise girl, so TP Zelda gave her a day to think about the offer. The catch? Fi can't talk to anyone about it. Afterwards, with the creation of 'THE PHOBIA 5000!" the campers remaining had face their worst fears which were told to us by the contestants themselves at a seemingly secret camp fire. SS Zelda's phobia was to turn into someone like me, so I gave her the honor of hosting the rest of the show, which she did a very good job at near the end by the way. There were phobias of cuccos, pickles, and even... long words?! Yes, oddly enough, Tetra's worst phobia were long words. Unfortunately for her, she's became mentally insane! Hahah! Some took their phobias to their advantages though, for Ciela, longing to be a Hylian in order to show for love for Shiek, became one when she expressed her phobia of losing her wings. There was screaming, crying, and LOTS of romance and kissing action! *whistle*. After rounding up the scores, it was the Fat Moblins who took the gold, making the Aggravating Octoroks have to eliminate one of their best players: Tetra. What will happen between the love of Sky and Zelda? Will the campers ever forgive SS Zelda's actions? Will Fi join TP Zelda's Alliance? Find out now on LoZ... Total... Drama... Island!"
"Mm, mm, mm..." Selene hums as she carries a large box towards the dinning hall, not noticing Time, dazing off into the sky. It isn't long before Time and Selene collide, sending them both flying to the ground.
"Oof!"
"Ouch..." Time mumbles, rubbing his head.
"O-Oh goodness! S-Sorry 'bout that!" Selene quickly apologizes, pulling him off up onto his feet.
"Haha, no problem. I wasn't really paying attention either." Time says. His eyes drift to the contents of the cardboard box Selene was holding. "Big, Sexy Hairspray...?"
"Shadow's."
"Haha, I assumed."
Time helps Selene place the bottles of hairspray back into the box. They share a few awkward moments of silence until...
"Y-You're Time, right?" Selene confirms. Time nods.
"You are...?"
"Selene! An intern here."
"So, what's it like being an intern for Shadow? I imagine it's a pretty rough job..."
"Tell me about it... We basically do all of his dirty work, if we're not pampering him that is... But all that can't be as bad as being a contestant right? I mean all those terrible challenges..."
"Oh I'm sure I'll survive the challenges, though some of them are pretty pain-enduring. What I'm really worried about is my guaranteed vote-off this week because of TP Zelda's alliance."
"O-Oh about that... I heard her talking to Fi about joining her alliance... Fi hasn't given her a response yet, but apparently she only has a few hours left to decide."
"R-Really?! Goddesses... I need to go talk to Fi quickly!"
"Ugh, I'm gonna get in so much trouble... Shadow said not to get involved with the contestants..."
"Well when it comes to TP Zelda's stupid alliance, by all means..."
"Hahah... Well, I should be delivering these to Shadow..."
"Did you want me to do that?"
"No. no! It's fine. You know we'd both get in trouble. Besides, you've got Fi to talk to right?"
"Right! I should go do that before she makes up her mind." Time states. "Nice meeting you Selene."
Time runs towards the beach to find Fi as Selene lets out a dreamy sigh, watching him go. She snaps back into reality when a voice speaks to her.
"Selene! There you are! Geez, Shadow's getting real frustrated. The last thing he needs is his delivery of his hairspray to be late." Shade, a 15 year-old girl with dirty blonde hair and lavender and black streaks, informs with a roll of her eyes. She wears a lavender blouse with red pants.
"O-Oh! Right!" Selene apologizes, following Shade back to Shadow's cabin.
In the Dinning Hall...
"Morning Sleepyhead~" SS Zelda teases Sky as he sits beside her. They share an adorable short kiss.
"Morning." Sky replies.
"W-WAIT A SECOND!" Ghirahim shouts, stopping in his tracks. "When did this happen?!"
"Last night~" SS Zelda giggles. "Sky all the sudden decided to be really romantic."
"You make it sound like I'm never romantic." Sky comments.
"Sleeping all the time isn't romantic, Hun." SS Zelda replies with a teasing smile.
"O-Oh..." Ghirahim mumbles before walking back to the Aggravating Octorok's table, sitting next to Navi.
"Wassup Ghirahim?" Navi asks, taking a bite of a stale muffin. Ghirahim tears up.
"Sky got together with Zelda..." Ghirahim replies.
"Duh. Wasn't it bound to happen?"
"No! He was supposed to be with me!"
"I'm gonna be completely honest, I don't think he saw you that way..."
"If Tetra were here, she'd be giving me support and helpful advice..." Ghirahim cries. "Oh Tetra..."
"What are you trying to say about me?!" Navi inquires.
"Nothing! It's just that our dynamic trio is only a duo now... and it just isn't the same..." Ghirahim mumbles.
At that moment, two interns come out to collect dishes: Vio and Shade. Shade cleans the Fat Moblin's table, making gag sounds at SS Zelda and Sky's public displays of affection. Vio walks over to the Aggravating Octorok's table and observes the players to see who was eliminated. Though it's subtle, you can obviously see his state of shock.
"...Tetra was-"
"Eliminated? Yeah..." Navi cuts Vio off.
"...Oh." Vio mumbles.
"And we only have one person to blame!" Ghirahim shouts, staring daggers at TP Zelda.
"Well excuse me for playing the game!" TP Zelda shouts back, taking a bite into her own stale muffin. "Gross... The food here is awful."
"Well, it's a step up from Henya's scrambled eggs." Vio comments, picking up plates.
"Don't try to act all innocent! You shouldn't even be here! Tetra should because she really tried hard at everything she did!" Ghirahim shouts back at TP Zelda.
"Psh. Like hell. She could barely last a minute reading a stupid essay." TP Zelda spits. Vio shoots her a glare.
"You're such a bitch!"
"I may be a bitch, but at least I'm smart unlike a certain someone here, who couldn't seem to get out of the friend-zone fast enough, if you even got to the friend-zone that is..."
"Like anyone would want to be in a relationship with you."
"Twilight." TP Zelda calls. Twilight, sitting beside her, perks up. "How do I look today?"
"Hm? Oh, you look really beautiful." Twilight genuinely responds.
"Do I? Oh Twilight, you're such a sweetheart~" TP Zelda smiles before grabbing him and pulling him into a kiss.
"W-Whaa...?" Twilight fumbles as he breaks away from the kiss. TP Zelda ignores him.
"See? Totally wants me." TP Zelda gloats to Ghirahim.
"You little-"
"Okay! That's quite enough!" Vio cuts in, trying to push Ghirahim and TP Zelda apart. Everyone is watching the action until Shadow walks into the room with Ranae in tow.
"Please?!" Ranae asks.
"No." Shadow responds.
"Please?"
"No."
"Please?"
"Okay fine! I'll order the stupid ducks!" Shadow yells in her face before tapping numbers into his phone in frustration. He holds the phone up to his ear as he looks over to Ranae and mouths, 'go ahead'.
"Yay! Mkay, morning you guys!" Ranae greets. Everyone raises an eyebrow. "The next challenge is a very special one! I call it: Bijou's Race of the Ducks!"
"I'm sorry...?" Midna responds.
"It's a challenge, created by me! Heehee!" Ranae giggles.
"Could you please hang on a moment?" Shadow asks the man on the other line while he observes the room. He places his hand on his phone to cover up the speaker. "Not everyone's here. I specifically told everyone that they needed to be in the dinning hall, eating breakfast by 9 o' clock! Is that not reasonable?! Why does no one listen to me?! Where's Blue? Someone get him to find Time, Fi, Ciela, and Shiek. And where is Selene?! She was supposed to pick up my hairspray almost half an hour ago! Ugh!"
"Geez... Shadow, you need to take a chill pill." Midna comments.
"Do you need a hug?" The Random-Floating-Pot-That-Attacks-You-But-Leaves-A- Heart-So-There's-Really-No-Point asks kindly.
"NO! What I need is for people to start listening to me!" Shadow exclaims before placing the phone back on his ear. "Ahem... Hey? Sorry about that, anyways I'll need you to send me 10 or 15 rubber ducks in the largest sizes you have..."
In the Confessional...
"I can just tell this isn't going to a non-stressful challenge..." Malon sighs.
"Goddesses Time, you had to go a piss Shadow off..." TP Zelda curses.
"I thought everyone liked my hugs..." The Random-Floating-Pot spoke softly.
"Fi!" Time calls out to a certain blue figure, walking along the shore.
"Oh, good morning Time." Fi replies politely.
"Morning..." Time states. "Look, I'm just gonna get straight to the point, did... TP Zelda ask you to join her alliance?"
"Well... Yes... But I wasn't supposed to tell you..."
"It's fine. I just... Fi, were you actually thinking about joining her alliance?"
"Honestly, it's the better decision. Whenever we lose a challenge I'm guaranteed to not be voted off."
"...What if... I offered you a spot on my alliance instead?"
"Your alliance...?"
"There you two are!" Time hears a voice shout from behind him. He turns around to see Blue obviously annoyed. "Shadow is absolutely pissed. You two need to get back to the dinning hall, now."
"Oh, crap!" Time curses. "Think about it, okay?" Time turns to Fi. Fi nods as the trio runs back to the dinning hall.
"Ugh..." Shiek groans as his eyes flutter open to see a blurry view of Ciela.
"Oh, thank goodness you're awake..." Ciela states with a soft smile.
"O-Oh... Hey Ciela..." Shiek says sheepishly as he tries to sit up. "Ugh... my head..."
"Here." Ciela hands Shiek an ice pack.
"Thanks..." Shiek says, reluctantly placing the ice pack on his head. "So... W-What happened?"
"Hm? Oh, you hit your head on the wall of the glass dome when you were running away from the cuccos."
"Cuccos?! Why was I running away from cuccos?"
"Because that was your worst fear...?"
"Was... that our challenge?"
"You don't remember our challenge?"
"Nope... I remember sitting at the camp fire with everyone, talking about our worst fears. Heheh, what was Tetra's again? Long words?"
"So you don't remember anything at all from yesterday?" Ciela questions with an obviously sad look on her face. Shiek shakes his head. "O-Oh..."
"Ciela! Shiek! There you are!" Vio calls as he bursts into the cabin. "You guys better hurry to the dinning hall. Shadow's having an 'off' day..."
"Can you walk?" Ciela inquires, looking at Shiek.
"I-I think so..." Shiek says, collecting himself as he follows Vio and Ciela back to the cabin.
"No! I want the Din damn purple duck! How hard is that to understand?!" Shadow shouts into his phone everyone stares at him in fear. Shadow hangs up abruptly. "Ugh!"
"We got 'em!" Blue states as he cautiously brings the late campers into the dinning hall. Shadow closes his eyes as he rubs his temples trying to calm down.
"Shado-"
"D-Don't touch me!" Shadow cuts Vio off as he pushes his hand off his shoulder.
"Ooooooooo~ Relationship fights~" Blue teases with a smirk. Vio shoots him a glare.
"Ranae... Can you just...?" Shadow says, still trying to collect himself.
"R-Right! This week, as I stated earlier, is a race I created myself: Bijou's Race of the Ducks! Each team will get an enormous rubber ducky that they'll have to blow up using their own breath. Then they'll have to carry their duck all the way to the shores of the beach where they'll have to ride their duck to row to another island east of here which Shadow calls "The Island of Ultimate Death!" There, you'll have to scour the island for a colourful box which will tell you what you have to do next." Ranae explains.
"I have a question!" The Postman exclaims, raising his hand.
"Go ahead!"
"Why do you get to make up the challenge this week?" The Postman asks.
"Hm? Oh, because it's Mr. Totes' birthday!" Ranae states.
"...Mr. Totes?" Time questions.
"My rubber ducky!" Ranae explains, pulling out her giant rubber duck.
"Hold on a second! It was my birthday yesterday and no one gave a crap about me!" Shade states with a huff.
"Oh! Happy late birthday!" SS Zelda says with a smile. Shade rolls her eyes.
"A little late now..." Shade mumbles.
"You guys didn't know?" Shadow inquires. "Ranae's my cousin."
In the Confessional...
"Woah woah woah woah woah... Wait. Ranae is Shadow's cousin?" The Random-Floating-Pot-That-Attacks-You-But-Leaves-A- Heart-So-There's-Really-No-Point reconfirms in disbelief.
"That's not possible! They don't look alike whatsoever!" Time states.
"Yay! I like rubber duckies!" Twilight exclaims.
"I guess that explains why Shadow hasn't fired her yet... I mean, he's always so mad at her... The poor girl." Sky says shaking his head.
"I'm not really sure what to think about that..." Ghirahim mumbles.
"Wow... Now I feel gross thinking you two looked cute together..." Navi says.
"Wait, you thought what?!" Ghirahim inquires.
"Nothing!"
Suddenly the campers hear a giant helicopter fly over them, making everyone curiously walk outside to see what's going on. As they step outside they watch as a large black helicopter drops two enormous deflated rubber duckies in front of the dinning hall. Everyone gasps. One rubber ducky is green while the other is purple. Shadow sits upon the front stairs, still rubbing his temples. Without moving from his position, he pulls out an air horn and honks it unenthusiastically. This startles the contestants at first, but then it motivates them to start the challenge.
"Shadow... Are you gonna be okay?" Vio asks, sitting beside Shadow as he watches the campers pathetically try and blow up the giant rubber ducks.
"I'll be fine. Can you just leave me alone?" Shadow pleads.
"Not until you calm down. What's going on? Why're you all the sudden so overwhelmed?"
"Ugh... I dunno... I just..." Shadow mumbles. "I guess I just still feel like a teenager, that's all."
"I'm listening."
"Like, y'know, when no one listens to you and it feels like everyone bosses you around? I thought taking this job would mean I'd finally be out of teenage-hood but... I guess not..."
"Being an 'adult' doesn't mean suddenly taking the role of the boss you know."
"But I am the boss! That's my job and no one seems to get that!"
"Sure you're the 'boss' but that doesn't mean making sure everyone's lives are miserable. Maybe some people aren't listening to you because you don't treat them well."
"I don't treat them well because they don't listen to me."
"No, you don't treat them well because you think that's what being 'the boss' is all about." Vio informs. Shadow thinks about this statement. "Do you understand what I'm trying to say?"
"Yeah... I guess... But I mean c'mon! I'm being forced to let Ranae choose the challenge because I just happened to be baby sitting her ten years ago when she broke the DVD player with the stupid hot dog skewer?! Ten years ago Vio! Ten years! That was when I was like, what, 14?"
"The longer you put off repayment the harder it gets. I mean, sure it probably started as just a cheep VCR that you could've easily paid back, but because you decided not to repay for that mishap it just became a bigger dept."
"Sigh... Okay, okay, I learned my lesson..."
"Good..."
"...T-Thanks Vio... I new there was a reason you were my favourite." Shadow smirks, pulling himself up.
"Uh, R-Right about that- Shadow!" Vio tries to call out before Shadow walks away, pretending not to hear him.
"Put your back into it!" Shadow shouts with a smirk as Vio shakes his head disapprovingly.
"Huff huff... Ugh, why does this stupid duck have to be so ginormous?!" Shiek complains. "Can someone else take over?"
"Sure thing." Ciela states calmly. She takes a long deep breath and blows up the entire green rubber duck. Everyone, even on the Aggravating Octoroks stare in shock. Midna whistles.
"You're a weird little fairy, you know that?" Midna says teasingly. Ciela smirks.
"All in a day's work!" Ciela beams.
"Okay, okay, we need to hurry!" Time panics.
"Navi, you're a fairy, do something!" Ghirahim shouts as the Fat Moblins start to carry their rubber duck down the trail towards the waters.
"Okay, just because I'm a fairy doesn't mean I can inflate enormous rubber ducks in a matter of seconds!" Navi shouts back.
"Well do something! Were losing already!" TP Zelda yells in fury.
"All this yelling is hurting my ears..." The Postman whines.
"Oh, shut up!" TP Zelda lectures.
"I predict that if we all continue to panic that there's an 80% chance that we'll lose the challenge." Fi states calmly.
"You better think of something fast Time or I will make sure you're eliminated at the end of this challenge." TP Zelda threatens pointing at Time's nose.
"Why me? I thought you were the leader!" Time teases.
"YOU GUYS!" Twilight shouts all of the sudden, catching everyone's attention. Twilight stands beside a completely inflated purple duck. "I did it!"
"Twilight you're amazing!" Time exclaims pulling him into a hug.
"Yes Twilight, absolutely amazing!" TP Zelda exclaims pulling him into another kiss making Time gasp.
"W-When did...?" Time fumbles.
"I predict our chances of losing are over 90% if we don't get going now. I can sense that the Fat Moblins have already made it to the waters." Fi informs causing everyone to scurry as they pick up the purple rubber duck and carry it to the waters.
With the Fat Moblins...
"Haha! Suckers!" Midna calls out as the Fat Moblins place their duck in the waters.
"Okay! Everyone grab something you can easily substitute as an oar!" SS Zelda orders as she and the others scour the beaches.
"What's an oar?" The Random-Floating-Pot asks.
"Y'know, one of those row-y thing-a-ma-bobers..." Malon tries to explain.
"Noun: A pole with a flat blade, pivoting in an oarlock, used to row or steer a form of boat or vessel through the water." Shiek describes.
"I swear there were a whole bunch of pieces of wood and crates lying around on this beach yesterday." Sky says with a confused look on his face. "It's like someone purposely cleaned up this beach right before the challenge!"
In the Intern Lounge...
"And then me and Vio #2 purposely cleaned all the debris off the beach right before the challenge! Hahah!" Jim Billy Jo-Bob laughs with Vio #2 as they play a game of poker with the other interns.
"Vio #2 and I." Vio corrects.
"We don't need you stupid grammar corrections Vio." Red spits shoving a few more magic beans into his mouth.
"Yeaaaaah, leave us be Vio." Jo Bob agrees. Vio rolls his eyes.
"I don't get why people like poker..." Vio says watching Jo Bob, Vio #2, Shade, Red, and Blue play.
"I don't get why you like Shadow." Blue replies. Every intern stops doing their activities and turns to face Vio.
"Yeah what's going on with you and Shadow?" Shade asks curiously placing down her cards.
"Nothing. I don't get what I do that makes everyone think anything's going on between us." Vio calmly replies.
"Hahah! That's a good one." Vio #2 sarcastically says.
"What were you two talking about earlier?" Blue inquires.
"I was just calming him down, that's all." Vio states.
"Yeah, right. Tell us the truth." Red orders.
"Look, nothing is going on between us. I'm just a regular intern like all of you." Vio insists.
"Hah. Right. So where were you two last episode huh?" Shade interrogates.
"More importantly, what were you two doing?" Jim Billy Jo-Bob teases. Vio sighs.
"I wasn't even with Shadow then. You guys are ridiculous." Vio says walking out the door, making the room go silent. Red finishes his bag of magic beans and lets out a huff.
"I'm going on a walk too. Cya losers!" Red exclaims as he leaves the intern lounge. As soon as Red shuts the door Blue slams down his cards and follows him.
"Hey, where are you going?" Selene inquires.
"This whole magic bean thing is ridiculous. I'm gonna stop it once and for all." Blue states before slamming the door.
With the Aggravating Octoroks...
"When did you two get together?!" Time inquires as he carries the giant, purple rubber duck, along with the rest of the Aggravating Octoroks, down the steep trail towards the ocean.
"I dunno..." Twilight mumbles, staring at his feet.
"And how?! How did you and TP Zelda discover this?!" Time asks.
"Would you just focus on the task doofus?!" TP Zelda demands.
"It's true. If we don't focus we have less than a 20% chance of beating the other team." Fi states.
"But... Where? and Why?! I'm just having a tough time taking all this in." Time sighs.
"Well, you better deal with it. It was bound to happen, wasn't it?" TP Zelda gloats.
"No, no it wasn't!" Time objects.
"Can our team not argue for longer than five minutes?!" Ghirahim complains.
"La la la la la la la~" The Postman sings completely ignoring the argument. He then starts to skip to the beat of his song which throws the Aggravating Octoroks off. Soon enough, the Postman throws everyone off balance and sends the Aggravating Octoroks rolling down the trail, loosing a hold of their rubber ducky.
"AAAAAHHHH!" The team screams as they all tumble down the steep trail and abruptly into the sand of the beach. The team groans as they collect themselves rubbing their soon-to-be bruises.
"HEY! LISTEN! Our team is never going to survive with this kind of attitude! We can't even think about continuing the competition hating each other like this. As much as I hate you all, we have to at least use some form of teamwork in order to win." Navi states, not scratch upon her.
"You're totes right Girlfriend, we need to start like, using teamwork, even if TP Zelda's a bitch." Ghirahim agrees.
"Hey!"
"Okay, we all agree: no more arguments, at least for this challenge. Sounds good?" Time suggests.
"Good!" The team chimes all together.
"Um... Guys... one of us can swim right?" The Postman confirms as he points to the purple rubber duck floating away into the ocean.
With the Fat Moblins...
"I have a quick question." Shiek states as he, Sky, Midna, and SS Zelda row the rubber duck. "What exactly happened during the last challenge that I missed?"
"Well... We all had to face our worst fears." Midna says.
"Zelda's fear was to turn into someone like Shadow, so Shadow made her the host. We all thought that'd be awesome since Zelda's so nice but..." Malon trails off.
"But instead she made our lives a living hell just like Shadow." The Random-Floating-Pot squeaks giving Zelda a glare. Well... If she could anyway...
"I-I'm sorry you guys! You have to forgive me!" SS Zelda pleads.
"You guys know she means well..." Sky adds.
"Whatever." Midna spits. "We won. Tetra was eliminated."
"Poor Tetra. I always respected that girl..." Shiek comments.
"Anyway, Sky and Zelda finally got together." Ciela continues.
"And so did you and Ci-" Malon is cut off when Ciela frantically covers her mouth mid-sentence giving Shiek a nervous smile.
"With whom did I get together with?" Shiek inquires.
"No one! She wasn't talking about you... She was... Uh, t-talking about TP Zelda and Twilight!" Ciela insists.
"Ah, yes. I remember this morning..." Shiek stated.
"Oh yeah! Aren't they adorable?" Malon squeals.
"Do you think Twilight actually likes TP Zelda? I get the feeling..." Sky trails off, staring into the waters.
"I think he does!" Malon says.
"I have another question." Shiek states. "Does anyone actually know which direction 'east' is?"
The Fat Moblins find themselves lost in the middle of the ocean.
With the Aggravating Octoroks...
"Annnnnnnnd row! Row! Row! Row!" The Postman orders in a rhythmic fashion.
"Ugh! Would you shut up?!" TP Zelda shouts at the Postman. The Aggravating Octoroks are all soaking wet from swimming towards their rubber ducky.
"As annoying as it is, it's helping us move faster..." Time comments.
"Row! Row! Row!" The Postman, obviously enjoying himself, orders.
"You're totes sure we're going the right direction Fi?" Ghirahim asks.
"99%." Fi replies.
"Ugh! Stop doing that stupid percent thing!" TP Zelda demands. Twilight leans forward to whisper in her ear.
"I thought we were trying to be nice to Fi in order to get her on our alliance..." Twilight says.
"With Tetra gone, our alliance actually has an advantage now. I don't care about her anymore." TP Zelda replies.
"O-Oh..." Twilight mumbles. Suddenly he perks up. "I see it! Yay!"
"Can you not shout in my ear?!"
"S-Sorry!"
"Do you see the other team?" Time asks specifically no one.
"Nope." Navi replies sitting upon the Postman's shoulder.
"Row! Row! Row!" The Postman sings.
"WE GET IT!" TP Zelda shouts.
"Teamwork! Remember Zelda?" Ghirahim lectures.
"Ugh, I hate this whole teamwork thing. Can't we just make me the leader and get this challenge over with?" TP Zelda suggests.
"NO." The whole team shouts back at her.
"Okay, okay, geez..." TP Zelda mumbles.
With the Fat Moblins...
"No east is THIS way!" Midna states rowing the rubber ducky in the opposite direction.
"I pretty sure it's THIS way Midna!" Sky objects rowing the other way.
"I think it's this way, isn't it?" Shiek suggests rowing in another direction.
"No, no. I think that if we just keep going the way we were, we'd get to the island." SS Zelda comments.
"You guys! We need to choose a direction and deal with it! We're going in circles!" Ciela informs.
"Yeah you guys! We need to work as a team! That's what the Fat Moblins are known for, aren't we?" Malon smiles.
"This is going to sound really stupid, but I kinda wish we had Astrid right now..." Shiek sighs.
"Nah, she would've gotten us more lost." Midna comments.
"I have an idea!" SS Zelda perks up. "You can fly right, Random-Floating-Pot?"
"...Yes?" The Random-Floating-Pot-That-Attacks-You-But-Leaves-A- Heart-So-There's-Really-No-Point questions.
"Why don't you go fly upward, find the island, and then come back to us and tell us where to go?" SS Zelda suggests.
"How will I remember where you guys are? You're in the middle of the ocean!" The Random-Floating-Pot states.
"I think you'll be able to find a giant green rubber duck." Midna replies.
"O-Okay..." The Random-Floating-Pot agrees, floating up into the air. As the pot floats up, she gets a good birds-eye view of the two islands. Unfortunately for The Random-Floating-Pot, she doesn't know which island is "The Island of Ultimate Death" or Shadow's island. "...Erm..."
Suddenly, The Random-Floating-Pot notices a purple rubber duck nearing the smaller island. Frantically, she flies down, landing abruptly upon Malon's lap.
"H-Hi?" Malon questions.
"THAT WAY! THEY'RE REACHING THE ISLAND!" The Random-Floating-Pot screams, floating towards Sky's choice of direction.
With the Aggravating Octoroks...
"Yes! Yes! Sweet land!" Ghirahim cries, kissing the beaches until he looks up to see a skull right in front of his face. "EEEEK!"
"What is it Ghira-EEK!" The Postman shrieks.
"Oh no! That's terrible! No one even had a funeral for that poor guy..." Twilight sighs, tears welling up in his eyes.
"See as how this island is called The Island of Ultimate Death, I assumed there would be dead people lying around. Let's ignore it and focus on the job." TP Zelda orders.
"Zelda's right, lets go find that clue!" Navi agrees as she and the rest of the Aggravating Octoroks follow TP Zelda. All except Twilight that is...
"Twi...?" Time questions, stopping in his tracks.
"We can't just leave this poor guy Time!" Twilight cries.
"Twi, I'm not sure if you realize this but..." Time says, placing his hand on Twilight's shoulder. "He's kinda dead."
"Butbutbutbutbutbutbutbut..."
"Twilight..."
"Can we at least have a funeral for him?"
"...Fine." Time acquiesces. "Zelda, Navi, Postman: you guys go ahead. Ghirahim and Fi: Stay with me."
"We need to be looking for this clue; we don't have time to have a stupid funeral for some guy whose been dead for probably years now!" TP Zelda lectures.
"Then go on ahead like I said!" Time orders. TP Zelda hesitates before letting out a "hmph!" and walking away with the Postman and Navi in tow.
"I'll go find some flowers!" Twilight beams.
"I'll come with you, it's dangerous to go alone!" Time calls out, following him. They remain silent as they cut through the jungle until Time feels like they're far enough from everyone else. "So... Twilight..."
"Oh! That flower's pretty!" Twilight exclaims, picking two large white tropical flowers from a nearby bush. "What were you saying Time?"
"I... Uh..." Time fumbles, scratching the back of his head.
"Oh! And that one's pretty too!" Twilight giggles running towards a purple freesia.
"Twilight! Look, as pretty as the flowers are, we need to talk about you and Zelda's alliance."
"Hm? What about it?"
"Sigh... I... What I'm trying to say is... that I really wanted to be in the finals with you. You're my only friend on this island since Tetra left and I want to stay in the competition with you for as long as possible."
"D'awwwh! I want to go to the finals with you too!"
"But the chances of that happening become less and less the longer you stay in TP Zelda's alliance. If we lose the challenge this week I'm bound to be voted off."
"What!? But everyone likes you!"
"Not Zelda. And everyone in her alliance has to vote off the same person as she does, remember?" Twilight nods. "So... I want to offer you a spot on my alliance."
"Your alliance? Who's in it?"
"Me, Ghirahim, probably Fi, and possibly you."
"But that would mean... Zelda's not in the finals with me..."
"And another thing: when did you two get together?!"
"I dunno... You sound like my dad..." Twilight comments. This strikes Time as he realizes that Twilight is right. I do sound like his dad... "Can I maybe... Get some time to think about it?"
"S-Sure, sure." Time responds. "How about that flower over there?"
"Ooooh! Preeeeetty!" Twilight squeals, running towards a bush full of rose acacias. "Man! This jungle is full of beautiful flowers.
"Yeah..." Time sighs. "I almost wish we could just stay here and never have to go back to that stupid competition again..."
"Mmmhm..." Twilight mumbles, fiddling with a few flowers and stems.
"Will you think about it? The alliance, I mean."
"Sure thing..."
"Twi, what're you-"
"Here! Wear it!" Twilight beams, holding up a crown of flowers woven together. "This way, you'll always have a piece of this beautiful jungle!"
"T-Twilight..." Time sighs happily. "I love it..."
"H-Hey Time?"
"Hm?"
"What're we collecting flowers for again?"
Back on Total Drama Island...
Red cuts through a thick forest with a determined look on his face as the moon continues to rise. It isn't long before Red reaches a stream which has a single beam of moonlight illuminating upon it. The view is breath taking. Red waits for a few minutes, tapping his foot as he constantly observes his watch.
"Dude! Where are you?!" Red shouts specifically nowhere. Suddenly a creature scurries out of the bushes.
"Heeheehee! Impatient my friend!" Scruff comments with a smirk.
"I need more." Red cuts to the chase.
"Already finished them? You really like these things huh?" Scruff teases.
"Only thing I eat now."
"Dear, oh dear, you really are addicted!"
"Just give me the stupid beans."
"Fine. 10 packs: 375 rupees."
"Why're they so expensive lately?"
"Because they're getting harder to ship to this stupid island in the middle of nowhere, that's why. Now... Deal?"
"You don't have any cheaper brands?"
"None. I don't have all night my friend. Do we have a deal?"
"...Deal." Red hands Scruff 375 rupees.
"Heehee! Pleasure doing business!"
"Hand 'em over."
"What's the magic words~?"
"Scruff."
"Nope. Wrong. Try again!"
"Scruff! Give me the beans!"
"So impolite!"
"Ugh! Fine, can I please have the Din damn beans?"
"I suppose that'll do." Scruff sighs handing him a small box of magic beans. Red's about to grab them when...
"There'll be no dealing tonight." States a strong voice coming from a man covered by a dark cloak which grips onto Red's hand before he can grab the beans...
Back to the Island of Ultimate Death...
"Ah! Yes! We did it!" Malon exclaims hurdling herself off the rubber duck and onto the sand beaches. Ghirahim and Fi stare at her with questionable looks. "What? We've been stranded in the middle of the ocean for hours! You don't think I'd be a little excited to see land?"
"What're you two doing? Shouldn't you be looking for the clue?" Sky ponders.
"We're like, having a funeral for this like creepy dead guy." Ghirahim explains. "Wow... I just realized how stupid that sounded.
"It looks like that guy's been dead for a while, why're you having a funeral for a guy you don't even know and has probably been dead for years?" Midna asks. Everyone shares an awkward pause before the Fat Moblins realize the answer to Midna's question.
"Twilight." Everyone states at the same time.
"I know! My name is really fun to say isn't it?" Twilight chirps as he skips towards the group with Time in tow.
"Speak of the devil." Ciela comments.
"Hey Time! Guess who found the clue!" TP Zelda brags before realizing that everyone's staring at her. Or more like staring at the paper entitled "CLUE" in her hand. The group shares an awkward moment of staring before TP Zelda suddenly starts running away; The Fat Moblins following. "EEEEEEKKK!"
"Think we should go help her?" Ghirahim asks watching the Fat Moblins.
"I don't care about her. All I care about is that clue! C'mon!" Time shouts as the Aggravating Octoroks chase after her.
After a few minutes of chasing, TP Zelda falls forward as SS Zelda pounces on her, sending them both tumbling forward. Once their charade of tumbling and rolling is over, TP Zelda finds herself underneath a growling SS Zelda.
"Calm down! It's just a stupid clue!" TP Zelda demands. This just infuriates SS Zelda more as she slaps her brutally on her cheek.
"That's for giving me that terrible tea!" SS Zelda shouts in her face before sending another slap.
"Oww! Stop!" TP Zelda orders.
"And that's for making us vote off all of our amazing teammates!" SS Zelda growls. She then pulls on TP Zelda's hair, bringing her closer to her face. "And this... This is for being such a... a... Bitch!"
SS Zelda punches TP Zelda, causing her lip and nose to bleed.
"Woohoo! Go SS Zelda!" Ghirahim cheers.
"She's on our team y'know." Time informs.
"Oh... Right..." Ghirahim sighs.
"Zelda! All you had to do was get the clue!" Sky lectures as he picks up the clue from TP Zelda's hand. Just as he's about to open it up, a large, tropical bird swoops in and snatches the clue right out of his hands. "H-Hey!"
"You've got to be kidding me!" Navi cries as the bird lands right in front of the group.
"Here birdy, birdy, birdy..." Malon sings edging closer to the bird. Everyone gives to questionable looks to the odd bird, for it's feathers are all neon rainbow colours, it doesn't seem to notice the campers whosoever, and it's eyes are looking to two different directions. "J-Just drop the clue and-"
"QUACK!" The bird quacks before flying away to an impossible height.
"GET THAT BIRD!" The Random-Floating-Pot-That-Attacks-You-But-Leaves-A- Heart-So-There's-Really-No-Point cries.
Back at Total Drama Island...
"What these people will do for money..." Shadow sighs, watching the action with Ranae.
At the Island of Ultimate Death...
After what seems like a few hours the bird lets out another large, terrible quack as it finally drops the clue in front of Fi. Cautiously, Fi collects the envelope and opens it, still panting from the marathon the teams ran trying to catch the tropical bird.
"Thank goddess..." TP Zelda mumbles, panting still trying to wipe off all the blood from her face.
"Pant... It says, 'Did you really just run around the island for two hours chasing a bird for a clue that wasn't even the clue you were supposed to be looking for? You campers are ridiculously hilarious to watch! Love, Vio #2 & Jim-Billy Jo Bob.'" Fi reads. No one's sure what to feel about this.
"Damn it Jo Bob!" Midna curses.
"So... This isn't the clue?" Twilight reconfirms. Time nods in response before falling face first into the sand.
"Imphsophtiredph..." Time mumbles, face still in the sand.
"What?" Navi inquires.
"I'm so tired." Time repeats, lifting his sand-covered face out of the sand.
"M-Me too... Anyone know what time it is?" Sky asks, yawning.
"I would guess around, if not past, midnight." Shiek suggests. Catching everyone's attention, the Random-Floating-Pot suddenly gasps.
"What?" Midna inquires.
"Do you think this is the clue?" The Random-Floating-Fot asks as she floats up to the top of a palm tree with a envelope sitting upon it. The envelope has Shadow's gorgeous face printed on it.
"That totally looks like it! Good job Random-Floating-Pot!" SS Zelda cheers.
"Woohoo! Go Random-Floating-Pot!" Twilight beams. Everyone cheers as the Random-Floating-Pot floats down with the envelope inside of it. Once she lands, Malon grabs the envelope out of the Random-Floating-Pot and reads it.
"Did you ever wonder why your rubber duck was so heavy? Maybe there's something in it? First one back to Total Drama Island wins invincibility for the next elimination. - Shadow." Malon reads. "What does that mean?"
"The ducks! We have to open the ducks!" TP Zelda shouts. The two teams immediately start running towards the beach they left their rubber duckies at. As they approach the beach however, the only duck sitting in the water is the large green one.
"Where's our rubber duck?" Fi inquires as the Fat Moblins immediately deflate their duck. Time observes the beach until he sees the Postman sitting on a nearby log, playing on a Nintendo 3DS.
"The P-Postman?! Have you not been with us this whole time...?" Time questions.
"Nope. Once again, you forgot about me." The Postman sighs.
"Well if you weren't following us, why weren't you watching the duck?!" Ghirahim inquires.
"I was. I watched it float away with the current." The Postman responds.
"... Are. You. KIDDING ME?!" TP Zelda blows up. "We are going to lose this challenge because you couldn't get off your stupid DS?! TELL ME YOU'RE KIDDING ME AND MY RUBBER DUCK IS JUST HIDDEN SOMEWHERE NEARBY IN THIS STUPID JUNGLE!"
"I get it! We have to build a raft!" Ciela beams as her team starts to assemble a raft using the boards, rope, and other materials that was placed in the duck.
"A raft! We can build a raft! C'mon!" Time shouts as he, Ghirahim, Fi, Twilight, and Navi run into the jungle to find tools they can use. TP Zelda however, stays by the Postman in order to lecture him.
"AND WHAT THE HELL ARE YOU PLAYING HUH? WHEN DID YOU GET THAT STUPID DS?" TP Zelda inquires.
"I'm playing Style Savvy: Trendsetters. And I've had this DS for a while. It's fun! Want to play?" The Postman cheerfully asks.
"That sounds like the most girliest game I've ever heard! Absolutely not!" TP Zelda shouts.
About an Hour Later...
"OMG! I absolutely adore the 'gothic princess' style!" TP Zelda comments as she plays on the Postman's DS. "Ugh, I hate this customer. I mean, she's sooooo ugly!"
"She's not that bad; she usually pays a lot." The Postman comments.
"That reminds me, do you think we should restock? I mean, I would, but it's not Sunday." TP Zelda debates. The Postman shrugs in response.
"Do you...Ugh... Do you guys mind actually doing something to help us?! The other team is already ready to go!" Ghirahim, obviously annoyed, states.
"It's fine! She'd probably ruin the boat anyway." Time comments with a slight smirk.
"Excuse me?!" TP Zelda inquires.
"There done! I'm the master!" Twilight giggles as he finishes tying a knot to the raft.
"Good job Twilight! You're a genius!" Time smiles as the Aggravating Octoroks jump onto the raft.
"You're probably one of the only people to tell me that... Except for my mom of course..." Twilight says. Time laughs.
"Well, I think you're extremely intelligent. You were probably an old Hylian philosopher in your past life." Time compliments, messing up his hair. Twilight giggles. The Aggravating Octoroks start to row.
"You really think so? I'd make up good philosophies I think. Like 'eat food when you're hungry', and 'don't use whatever brand the toilet paper is here on Shadow's Island.'"
"You really hate the toilet paper here don'tcha?"
TP Zelda stares at the two laughing in envy.
With the Fat Moblins...
"Yes! We're gonna win! Yipeee!" Midna cheers.
"Not if we don't go faster we won't. Look!" Shiek states, pointing to the Aggravating Octoroks speeding up to them.
"Not on my watch!" Ciela exclaims as she floats behind the raft and pushes it forward at an extremely high speed.
"W-Woohoo! Gooooooooo Cielaaaaa!" Malon shouts with her hands in the air.
With the Aggravating Octoroks...
"Ugh! Damn it! They've got that stupid fairy!" TP Zelda curses. The Aggravating Octoroks stop rowing and stare, hopeless. Navi suddenly growls and flies to the back of the raft as she shoves the raft forward at a rapid speed.
As both teams scream (the Fat Moblins in happiness and the Aggravating Octoroks in fear) the two rafts become neck-and-neck as they race towards Total Drama Island.
"Here we go! Here we go!" Ranae repeats excitedly.
"Camera shot Selene!" Shadow orders as Selene pulls out a high definition camera ready to take a picture as the two rafts reach the beach.
The rafts collide with the island, sending a wave almost as big as a tsunami to wash over a majority of the island. Selene's camera however, is completely dry.
Selene pulls herself out of the water and quickly checks the picture. The winner is...
...
...
"The Aggravating Octoroks!" Selene cries as the Aggravating Octoroks cheer.
"Hey! Zelda nearly killed someone for that invincibility! We should win!" Midna objects.
"Cough... Cough... H-Hold on... Where are your rubber duckies?!" Shadow inquires. Midna merely picks up the Random-Floating-Pot and drops it on the ground, smashing her into pieces as a deflated green rubber ducky is revealed, with a blank look on her face.
"What about my purple one?" Ranae asks with puppy dog eyes.
"Uhh..." Time mumbles scratching the back of his head. "We weren't told we were supposed to bring it back..."
"Oh yeah, it says right on the bottom of this clue that you must have your rubber ducky with you." Malon says, pulling out the clue from her pocket and reading it over again.
"Then the Fat Moblins win!"
In the Confessional...
"This close! This close to winning! Sigh... I guess I should just face defeat huh? Well, the good news is Fi says she'll join my alliance. Bad news: Twilight hasn't given me an answer. I guess we'll see what his answer is tonight at elimination. My alliance is voting off the Postman. I know what you're thinking: Why wouldn't we vote off TP Zelda? Well, we talked about it, and we know that we still want to win. Sure TP Zelda's a... bitch as Ghirahim might say, but she's helpful in some challenges. So, we'll keep her for now. Besides, if our plan succeeds, her alliance is basically over." Time states.
"Ugh! I hate losing! It's all because stupid Navi couldn't push us fast enough! And the fact that she wouldn't use her powers to help us earlier! My alliance isn't voting off her though. We're voting off Time. I know he's planning something against me. Besides, I've been wanting to vote him off for weeks now." TP Zelda explains.
"Please?" Ranae pleads.
"No." Shadow responds, walking to the campfire with 6 red potions on his tray.
"Pleeeeeeaaase?"
"No."
"Geez, Mean Cousin Shadow, you always say no." Ranae whines.
"No."
"Why not?"
"FINE! OKAY!" Shadow shouts handing Ranae the tray.
"Yayz! Hiya guys! Welcome to another elimination! Okay, here's who's staying tonight... Twilight-"
"You're supposed to give a speech about the potions and why they're so important!" Shadow interrupts.
"Oh, really?" Ranae questions.
"We hear the stupid speech all the time; just get it over with!" TP Zelda demands.
"Oh, shut up." Shadow spits.
"U-Um... Ghira... Ghirahem? Geehehim? Ghir-"
"Ghirahim. Thanks girl." Ghirahim corrects, grabbing his potion.
"Oh! Mkay! Uh, Navi, TP Zelda, and Fi..." Ranae reads.
"Now be sure to add a big suspenseful pause before you announce who's leaving." Shadow instructs.
"Okay! So, the person leaving tonight is...
is...
...
...
...
..
..."
"RANAE!" Shadow shouts.
"Whaaaaaat?"
"Not. That. Big. Of a pause." Shadow growls, pulling the cards out of Ranae's hands. "Time!"
"W-What?!" Time questions.
"Oh wait! No. You stay. Postman, get out of here!" Shadow corrects.
"What! Oh nooooooo!" The Postman cries as he sulks to the Boat of Losers. As he leaves, TP Zelda turns to face her last two alliance members in fury.
"I don't know which one of you turned your back on me, but one of you did, and I will find out who it is and personally shave their head bald in their sleep if it's the last thing I do!" TP Zelda shouts before storming off. Once she leaves, Time runs up to Twilight and squeezes him tight.
"You're the best Twi!" Time exclaims.
"No, no. You're the best Time..." Twilight replies, hugging him tighter.
"I think Mean Cousin Shadow is the best!" Ranae squeals, jumping into Shadow's arms.
"Heheh, thanks Ranae..." Shadow smiles, hugging her back.
"L-Let go of me!" Red cries as he tries to wiggle out of the mystery man's grasp. "Who are you?!"
The man takes off his hood to reveal...
Blue?!
"Dude! Leave me alone!" Red shouts.
"Such a party pooper. Leave this guy alone." Scruff demands.
"You only want me to let him go so that you can take all his money!" Blue yells at Scruff.
"Blue!" Red shouts, still struggling.
"Red! I'm not going to let you waste your life like this! I mean, what happened to the sweet, kind, loving Red, huh?"
"He was stupid and weak."
"How did you become this way Red? People loved you and people respected you! Now everyone hates you and thinks you're annoying! C'mon man! You had your whole life ahead of you! You had goals and people to inspire! Now you've just become this worthless piece of crap!"
"I'm not worthless!"
"Really? Because what I see right now is a worthless Hylian being taken advantage of by this skull kid! A skull kid! Oh, and by the way, you should know that those magic beans are actually quite easy to ship. Easy to grow too. They should barely be worth five rupees per package."
"Hey! Stop spitting lies man!" Scruff shouts.
"Hah! I'm spitting lies?! I'm just telling the truth that you're too afraid to tell because you'll lose all your money!" Blue spits. Red grabs his arm.
"Blue! Let me do what I want to do with my life! Why can't you treat me like an adult?!" Red inquires.
"Cause you're not!"
"I basically am! Just a few more years!"
"..."
"Why don't you just go back to Vio and his stupid love interest at the camp and let me live my life."
"...You're right. This is your life. I don't really know why I was expecting any different answer from you... I guess I just thought that... After being your friend for so long that, y'know, you'd actually take the time to listen to me. Sure I have no more experience at life than you do, but I know a few things. I know a few things that are wrong and some that are right, and I know that what you're doing right now is wrong and it's ruining your life... and mine too... But..." Blue pauses. "I guess I'll see you back at camp..."
Blue turns around, about to walk away when he's pulled back, turned back to face Red, and pulled into a hug. Blue feels Red's tears drip on his cloak. Scruff gags.
"I-I'm so sorry Blue!" Red cries into his chest. Blue smiles a weary smile and pulls back.
"It's fine." Blue says, smiling at him. "Lets go back."
"...I always knew you cared about me Blue."
"No I don't you dork. You were just getting annoying... That's all."
Red giggles before placing a kiss upon his cheek.
"Thanks Blue..."
"Y-Yeah, yeah... Whatever."
D'aaaaaaawwwwh!
Hope you like this chapter as much as I did writing it!
Mean Cousin Shadow needs to take a chill pill.
This week tell me what you think of Time and Ciela! (Tell me if I've already ask you about these people... I'm losing track XD)
Ack! I feel really bad! I know at this point I'm supposed to ask you guys if you have interns to give me... But because I'm having trouble keeping track of my interns, I'm not going to be taking anymore at the moment. Don't worry if you have one, I'll ask for them again at some point. I just don't want people getting mad at me for not using their interns because I have too many! I know there are A LOT of interns I haven't used that were given to me a looooong time ago D:
Please review however and tell me how I'm doing! You guys are the best! I squeal whenever I get a review!
Lots of hugs!
-Dino
