"Hey! Star here!" Star entered luxury dorm again.

"Hey, Star. Have you seen Lydia?" Christy asked her as she tossed popcorn in her mouth. They were all in the living room watching Comy Tulips, the kids show with four creepy aliens.

"Nope," Star shook her head.

"She's probably out for a walk," Aleck said.

"Shh," Ethan said," this is where they learn to share the ball."

Lydia and Pepper were walking and pushing each other playfully as they walked. Nicole was watching them carefully from the trees.

Pepper: She's okay... I mean, she is the most sane person in the game. Like, seriously. Chris, Chef, Rock Star, Bi-Polar, Albino, Stunt Double Helmet Obsessed Boy, Emotionless, Creppy Stalker That Isn't Even Participating, Red Who Is Stalker's Stalkee, Goodie Good, Jasper the Friendly Video Game Ghost, and Saylor Smith. Then there's Nicole who's... special. -evil grin-

"So what brings you into the night?" Pepper asked her.

"There was too much drama in the luxury dorm, so I got out. Why are you out?" Lydia asked him.

"The guys on my team are idiots," Pepper groaned in remembrance," then Star comes out of freaking portals." Lydia giggled, and Pepper took note of her laugh. "You have a nice laugh."

"Thank you," Lydia smiled at him with a small blush," you're nice, you know."

"No I'm not," Pepper rolled his eyes," I came here to win the money. That's practically it. No friends, no romance, no nothing."

"Sure, Pep."

"Please don't call me Pep. It brings back memories of Nicole."

"Nicole, huh. You... like her?" Lydia asked nervously.

Lydia: I'm always a nervous wreck around Pepper, but I actually was acting normally this time! Argh! Why'd I ask him. Well... I did care... NOT THAT I DO CARE! It's just that um... for science?

"No."

"Then why'd you two kiss? Y-You know. If you want to tell me."

"I'm not even sure. I'll have to get back to you on that, Tennis Skirt."

"Don't call me Tennis Skirt," Lydia shoved Pepper playfully, and he ended up losing his balance. He grabbed Lydia before he fell, and she landed on top of him.

"Well," Pepper said as they looked at each other," isn't this terribly cliché." Lydia quickly got off Pepper and laid down next to him.

"Sorry about that," Lydia laughed.

"Whatever. You're not exactly the strongest."

"What's that supposed to mean?!"

"Nothing really."

"Hmmm."

"I'm serious, Tennis Skirt."

"Whatever, Salt."

"Your comeback needs salt."

"Hey! Y-"

"Look at the stars. They look better than real Star."

"I guess they are pretty."

"At least she shut up," Pepper sighed under his breath.

"What?"

"Nothing."

Pepper was walking back to the cabin with his hands in his pockets. He was smiling. Lydia just made his night. When he returned, Nicole was waiting on the porch.

"Hey, Pep. Have fun counting rocks with your girlfriend?" Nicole teased him.

"We were counting stars, Nicole. Anyways, she's not my girlfriend. We just ran into each other," Pepper told Nicole. Pepper decided he was gonna bring Nicole down. Badly.

"Yeah. Just casually ran into each other, accidentally fell on each other, and started counting rocks."

"Star."

"Same shit!'

"Wait... I never said we fell. You were spying us, weren't you?"

"W-what?!" Nicole blushed as Pepper got in her face. Of course he had to lean down because she was so short, and he was really tall.

"Admit it, little girl. You have a crush on me."

"No I don't! We're just on the same team, and we just kissed."

"Just kissed? Oh no, no, no, no, little girl," Pepper ruffled her hair for every 'no'.

"Yo- um... eh," Nicole didn't know what to say.

"You. Like. Me."

"No I don't!"

"Then what is this?"

"I don't know? A pigeon?!"

"Oh really, Nicole?" Pepper got behind her and talked into her ear," Because I think you're in love with me. The more you deny it, the cuter you get." Pepper then bit her ear before walking back into the boy's side of the cabin and laughing.

Pepper: Operation throw Nicole off her game is making a lot of progress. Nobody messes around with me. Nobody.

Nicole: Asshole. -touching her ear-

The next morning at the cafeteria

"Hey, Star," Kyle's eye twitched. Chris was forcing Kyle to be nice to Star. For the ratings.

"Hey," Star smiled and waved like a normal person before walking up to Chef to annoy him.

"Huh," Kyle said," she didn't do anything creepy."

"I told you to be nice to her," Chris said," she's normal if you don't ignore her. It's a quirk she has. For example, hey, Star!"

"Hi, Chris," Star waved at him.

"So when is the little bitch leaving?" Nicole asked.

"Nicole," Pepper said," you're older than her and she's half a foot taller than you."

"Shut up!" Nicole yelled at him.

"You can feel the sexual tension," Alice whispered to Ellie. Ellie just sighed and nodded. She was staring at Ethan. He seemed to get along with his new team.

Ethan: I get along well with my new team perfectly fine, but I'm used to Ellie yapping down my ear all the time. Or just sitting next to me.

"Are you okay, Ellie?" Link asked her.

"I miss Ethan," Ellie sighed and slumped down.

"Don't worry, you'll see him in the challenge," Alice reassured her.

"Thanks for the encouragement," Ellie softly smiled.

At the challenge in the science classroom...

"In my hands," Chris held up two buckets," I'm holding dead frogs."

"You killed little froggies?" Star looked at Chris with puppy eyes. Christy raised an eyebrow.

Christy: Is Star trying to take away my dad or something? She better not!

"Nope. Nature did. Anyways, you guys will be dicesting frogs with the guidance of those old books in the back of the class," Chris said and set a bucket on two different tables. "The tables all have tools you'll need for the dicection. You guys have to properly dicect the frogs to use then for the next challenge. The team with the most challenge, gets an advantage in the next challenge AKA, a bigger chance of living."

"What's that supposed to mean?" Oliver asked him.

"You'll see," Chris snickered. "Now use all of the books in the back if needed. Just dicect it properly. You have just thirty dirty little minutes. Use then wisely. Also, Pepper. It'd be advised not to bite anything. Just a comment." Pepper rolled his eyes at Chris, and Nicole crossed her arms and turned red either if embarrassment or lots and lots of anger. Maybe both. Embarranger... new word. Sorry, I'm just a narrator. I don't make the laws.

New word, peasants!

Chris started the stop watch, and he laid back in the teachers desk with a fan blowing his direction. Chef was sitting next to Chris and eating ice cream. Then there was Star who was sitting on the Owl's table and waiting for Kyle while humming. Alice returned to the table with a book.

"Are you humming Little Tiger Man?" Alice asked her.

"By Mumford & Daughters," they said in unison. The girls giggled, and Alice began flipping through her book.

Alice: Who would have guessed Star is into that. She's more of a... Ronn Lyss gal. Or an Abbey Levine fan. Boy do I hate Ronn Lyss.

In the back, Lydia and Pepper were having a staring contest. Pepper eventually intimidated the blue haired girl. Oliver got a book and started laughing at the pictures of naked people until Ruby punched him in the arm. Then there was Kyle and Link getting books about animals, Ellie looking for something cute, Aleck and Christy looking for actual books, and there was Ethan who was staring at Ellie as he pretended to look through the pages of a book. Ellie turned around, and she caught Ethan's eye. Ellie could help but smile at him, and Ethan just waved his fingers before walking back to the table.

Ellie: It kind of stinks how he doesn't show emotion. I'm sure he'd look even cuter with a smile. Uh?! Did I say cuter? I meant hotter. Wait... no! That's not right either!

Nicole glared at Lydia as Lydia slowly returned back to her team's table while smiling at Pepper.

"Jealous?" Pepper snuck up on Nicole a few moments later and whispered in her ear. Nicole quickly shut the book she was holding and rolled her eyes.

"Psh, as if," Nicole muttered before going to the team table. Eventually, everyone was at the tables for their team.

Link: The tension between Pepper and Nicole is scaring me. Something is up with those two. It's like Chris and Star make them seem like lovers, but Pepper completely hates her. So it's a bit weird if you ask me.

Kyle: You know what's hard? Trying to cut open a dead frog with Star staring at you while humming songs from We the Queens. WE THE QUEENS. You know how fluffy and cheesy those sings are? Very! She was literally singing the lyrics to Check Yes Romeo in my ear.

-Star: -tackles Kyle to the ground- Here you are!

-Kyle: -gets up- Uh... yeah. I'm gonna go... remurder a frog. The usual. Casual. Murder. Again. Mentally. But real. Just on frogs. Not yo- I mean ... worms.

-Star: You're funny. -giggling-

"Ewww," Ellie made a face as Alice carefully removed stuff from a frog.

"I have a twin brother. This isn't really disgusting," Alice said and started humming.

"Dirty Big Secret," Star guessed.

"You're right," Alice nodded with a smile before going back to unstuffing the frog.

"Look, Pep," Nicole held up a frog intestine and held it in front of Pepper's face.

"Please be mature," Pepper said and didn't look at Nicole as he backed away.

"This is so cruel," Link said as he dicected the frig all wrong. He was mixing things up, and he was taking the necessary parts out. Why? He was copying Kyle who was also struggling. Star just dazed off as she stared at the frogs get torn to pieces

"This is so inhumane," Ruby said as she watched Oliver dissect a frog.

"You aren't doing anything," Ethan told Ruby.

"Aleck isn't either," Ruby pointed at Aleck.

"I'm reading the instructions to Christina and Lydia. I would never do this to an animal," Aleck shuddered.

"It's dead you moron," Ruby rolled her eyes.

"Then why don't you do it?" Christy asked her in a pissed off voice.

"Woah, calm down McLean the Second," Ruby glared at her. After a sloppy and smelly challenge, Chris turned off the clock. Chris took out a picture from his picket for reference.

"Kyle. Link. What is this? You remurdered the little beasts. Alice great job with 4. Pepper... one. Nicole. NONE. Ellie. Half a frog. You guys have 5. Seriously?" Chris rolled his eyes at the teens. He walked over to the Fireflies, and he saw their work. "Oliver three frogs. Christina Anne, two. That's my girl," Chris wiped a tear," Lydia has three, and Ethan had two. The Fireflies won."

"What do we win?" Oliver asked.

"This cook book," Chris smirked.

"Wait... are you saying?" Lydia gasped.

"Yup," Chris smirked.

"We're gonna cook them?" Ruby gulped.

"Then, the Owls are gonna eat them," Chris laughed.

"WHAT?!" Nicole screamed.

"You are one sick man, McLean," Pepper glared at Chris.

"Hey! Watch the language " Christina glared at Pepper, but Pepper just rolled his eyes.

"Sorry, Chris. But I'm not eating a frog," Ellie shook her head.

"Neither am I," Alice shook her head.

"The challenge isn't over" Chris got cut off by Niciole.

"If they ain't doing it, fuck it," Nicole said.

"I'm with Short Stuff," Pepper said and earned a glare from Nicole who was cracking her knuckles.

"If thy don't do it, I won't," Kyle said.

"You guys are" Chris then got a phone call. He looked at the ID, and his eyes went wide. "Um, Fireflies win. Owls, detention hall! You know the thing! See you guys in a bit. Now wonder off! Now!"

"That was weird," Nicole told Alice.

"Not as weird as your little nose," Pepper tapped Nicole's nose before catching up with Lydia.

"He's an asshole!" Nicole groaned.

"But you like him him," Ellie said.

"Shut up, Ellie," Nicole glared at her

"Crap," Alice said," I need to return to the class. I'll see you guys in the detention hall."

"How can she say that in a happy tone?" Kyle asked. Ellie shrugged.

Alice heard Chris on the phone, and she stopped at the doorless doorway.

"Yeah. Yeah. I know. But I'm not gonna tell Christina anytime soon. I know. Look... I'm considering it. Her mo- I know she's dead. Christina Anne is all I have left. I know... I love you, too. Remember, Christina Anne can't know under any circumstances," Chris finally hung up. He turned around, and he saw Alice.

"You're a terrible father," Alice gasped.

"What would you know?" Chris rolled his eyes," Like you aren't also a fake, Little Miss Actress."

"I know a lot, Chris. A lot," Alice said," I'm gonna tell Christy!" Alice turned around, but she ran into Chef.

"You're going home," Chef laughed.

"Isn't this against the damn contract?!" Alice screamed as Chef carried her.

"Nope. But you still threatened to mess with my little girl. That goes against ANY written contract," Chris glared.

"I was only gonna tell her that her dad is in a secret relationship!"

"Exactly! Now, Alice. Bye!"

As Chef dragged Alice down the hall, Alice screamed," I'll be back, McLean!"

"I'll be back."

Chris entered detention hall.

"No voting today. Alice already got the boot. She found out things. But anyways, all of you are safe for another week," Chris explained.

"WHAT?!" Ellie stood up,"NOW I DON'T HAVE A GIRL FRIEND ON THE TEAM!"

"Eh ehm," Nicole coughed.

"I'm the only sane girl on the team? Dammit!" Ellie groaned.

Alice's Audition Tape

"Hey, I'm Alice. I've been watching Total Drama since the very beginning, and I've always always ALWAYS wanted to be on the show! I mean, I've got the skills, the talent, and the wits to make it to the final two," Alice then muttered," as long as one of the other contestants doesn't try to steal MY prize… What? I didn't say anything! Cut!" Alice then threw herself at the camera.

Mindy: We're sleep deprived. If you don't think us waking up with Kyle (this Kyle) in Star's bed and trying to wake him up for school is just us being crazy, you're crazy. Also, Alice is like this because her dad is famous. So she somewhat understands famous dads. Sorry for upload. You guys have one day to vote.
