Episode 10: Paint Stain Disdain
"Last Time," Chris said, "on Total Drama Karon Island, the teams were up for a good old fashion swim meet! Where the water came from was definitely unknown. (Clips were shown of Randall falling in the water, and everyone else discovering the flood.) Sarah took lead for her team, which ended in disaster (clip of Jonathan yelling at her,) and Kayla was mean to Paul, who quickly returned the favor. (Clips shown of Kayla teasing Paul then getting pushed in) In the end, Much to Jonathan's disdain, Sarah went home, and thanks to Ethan, Norm is still in the game. (Clip of Jonathan pissed at his team for keeping Norm). Who is going home next? Does anyone remember what I said in the second episode? Find out today, on Total! Drama! Karon Island!"
Opening Sequence
Hen Cabins, Girls' Side
"Mornin' deadbeats," Angie said. She then looked around. "Oh, right."
Angie: As the only girl left in the Hen's team, I find myself obligated to at least make the merge. One of us has to, right?
Hen Cabins, Boys' Side
"Checked the votes last night," Juan said to his alliance. "Sarah voted for Norm out of nowhere." He turned to Jonathan, with narrow eyes. "And so did you."
Jonathan got nervous quickly. "I was tricked, my apologies. It shouldn't happen again. Although, now that they have me, they might try again."
"They?" Juan asked. "Go on."
Jonathan shook his head. "No can do. Person knows about our alliance, and told me we'd all be next, in the order of his choosing. I think it's best we keep that a secret." Juan groaned.
Juan: I feel like I'm the only one trying to figure this out. Ironic as it is, I'm sure Hannah would have actually been help had she been in the game. Maybe I jumped the gun on that one... (he laughs) nah.
Campsite, Bouncing Bunnies
"Uh," Flora said with concern, "did anyone else hear that spooky voice last night?"
"I heard it," Paul said. "I didn't mind it. Wasn't talking to me."
Kayla scoffed at him. "Please," she said angrily, "You were frightened. As for me, I was asleep, didn't hear it at all."
"Let's not talk about it," Luna said. "No point discussing something we don't know."
Kara shrugged. "I'm gonna go look around, for uh, nothing in particular." She started to walk off, when she was hit by a paintball. She turned around to see Chris and the Happy Hens with them.
"Not so fast," the host said. "We have a challenge to do first! As you may have noticed, Kara was hit by a ball of paint."
"Gee, thanks for sharing," Angie said, barely paying attention.
"Anyway," Chris said, "You also probably noticed that while paint exploded, no one covered much ground. Today, we will be playing a fun game, and a tribute to season two's war movie genre. Each team will get more than one explosion this time. You will have a supply of paint at your team's base. You each get guns, and are going to be covering ground. You can cover over top of the other team, but be warned. The other team's probably still around, and if they hit you, you can't cover anymore ground. Once an entire team is out of the challenge, we'll tally up the percentages."
"So it's just real-life Paintoon?" Juan asked.
"Paintoon?" Chris asked confused.
"You know," the Spanish boy explained, "The game with paint on the Swii X?" Everyone else nodded in agreement that the game existed.
Chris shrugged. "I'll handle the feds if they show up, but as for all of you, you have a challenge to do. So, get to it!" They all scrambled off to their respective areas."
Jonathan: We have to win this one today. Juan got really suspicious, and I want a normal-ish elimination. But as far as I'm concerned, someone spoke up.
Team Base, Happy Hens
"Ok, here's the deal," Jonathan addressed the team. "We take out as many of them as we can, by sending in a squadron of three." He pointed to Norm and Angie. "You two, stay around here and cover ground."
"Who died and made you leader?" Ethan questioned.
"Sarah did, metaphorically," Jonathan said angrily, "and I made the strategy, so you need to shut it before I speak up about something you don't want me to." Ethan sat back and obliged, but still scowled at him.
Ethan: I made the strategy, not him! Of course, now he's taking credit for everything I do. (he sighs) Had I never adopted that stupid strategy at the beginning of the game, I would be safe as of right now, Madison would still be here, and I would still have the friends I do.
Team Base, Bouncing Bunnies
"What we need is a split team," Paul said to everyone. He pointed to Kayla, Kara, and Luna. "Twinsies and Psychic, we need you on taking out everyone else. Well, we really only need Luna and Kara, but Kayla can go along for fun."
"Hey!" Kayla shouted.
Paul then gestured over to Flora. "Flora and I will stay here and cover ground, with mountain pain man and strong man. We can spit those two up to get even more ground."
"I don't get a fun nickname?" Flora asked, half-joking.
"Uuuuuh," Paul started, "couldn't think of one. Sorry."
Kayla: (She just sits in the confessional and giggles, slightly evilly.)
Paul: Man, that was rough, but I feel strong about my leadership, and also a bit strong towards Flora. Okay, a lot strong...(he stops) Does that even make sense?
Forest, Happy Hens
"Soooo, now what?" asked a confused Juan.
"We take out everyone on the Bunny team, like Jonathan said," Ethan mocked. "How do you say we'll do that anyway?"
Jonathan glared at Ethan. "I think the real problem is that you haven't been contributing lately."
Ethan shot back at Jonathan. "I haven't been contributing? What have you done?"
Jonathan shrugged. "Nothing you could do better at. Watch, I'll lead this challenge and win."
Juan groaned. "I cannot take this arguing anymore! I'm out of here." Juan walked off.
Jonathan looked at Ethan. "You will now help me win. Let's go," he pushes Ethan and they move in the direction of the Bunnies.
Juan went a different direction. He looked at the Bunny Base, as they were now covering the area with paint. "Time to start cracking down on them." He shot a paintball at Helio, but when it collided, the entire area exploded in Bunny Paint. Randall was seen flying through the air, slightly on fire but also somehow completely avoiding any paint. Juan looked at himself. He too was covered in that paint. "What the?"
An announcement came over the speakers. "Juan and Helio are out of the game for today. Randall narrowly escapes."
Randall: Kara apparently smuggled some explosives from the very first challenge. We re-wired them to set up a big paint bomb. Pretty cool, huh?
CHALLENGE UPDATE:
Remaining Bouncing Bunnies: Flora, Kara, Kayla, Luna, Paul, Randall
Remaining Happy Hens: Angie, Ethan, Jonathan, Norm
Team Base, Bouncing Bunnies
Paul and Flora stood alone in the base. The entire visible area they had was covered in paint. They really had nothing to do now. "Sooo, now what?" Paul asked, in an effort to break the awkward silence.
"We could always go looking for the others," Flora said, "But I'd hate to go against your plan."
"Sooo, we just wait?" he said. Flora nodded. "Huh," he added. He turned to her. "Can I ask you something?"
"Of course," Flora said.
"Well," Paul started, "this might be weird to ask, but are you seeing anyone outside of the show, or like, on it?"
Flora's eyes widened. "No, I can't say I am." She decided to take a follow-up position. "Why do you ask?"
Paul stepped back. "Uh, you know-"
"Please don't lie to me," Flora begged.
Paul sighed. "Alright. Thing is, I like you a lot, and I'd hate to accidentally screw things up for you back at home." Flora didn't move.
Flora: That was really nice of him! Except, I'm so conflicted! I don't want to hurt him, but I'm not sure if I'm ready yet. Maybe I'll just have to be honest...Oh no...
"Thing is," Flora said solemnly, "I think you're really nice, and really talented too. I'm just not sure about anything yet." Paul sighed, but Flora put her hands on the jock's shoulders. "But that doesn't stop you from asking again later." She then picked up her paintball gun. "Let's go hunting together."
Paul: Wow, that actually didn't go terribly. Good stuff!
As they were getting ready to go, they heard another announcement. "Randall, Norm, and Luna are all out! The rest of you better get going!"
"How did that happen?" Paul asked, confused.
Angie: (She is currently leaning against the confessional wall, holding the paintball gun.) I'm a good shot, and that was too easy. Sucks that I lost Dorkus in the process though.
CHALLENGE UPDATE:
Remaining Bouncing Bunnies: Flora, Kara, Kayla, Paul
Remaining Happy Hens: Angie, Ethan, Jonathan
Forest, Happy Hens
Ethan and Jonathan made their way through the forest. There was paint all over the place, but in the other team's color. "We need to start covering ground," Ethan said. "If we take them all out and this big patch is still here, they'll beat us for sure."
"Hush it," Jonathan retorted. "You stay put." He looked around, then eventually caught sight of the twins. "Easy," he said, smirking. He took aim and fired at the twins, hitting Kara first. Kayla started shooting, and hit Ethan, who Jonathan had forced into position as a shield. He popped out from behind him and fired, hitting the second twin. "Too easy," he muttered. "Now let's finish these guys off and leave this patch here."
"Yeah, sure," Ethan said, angry. He was covered in paint. He reached up to his face and felt it. It was drying on him. He shuddered, and ran off, shouting, "Thanks for blowing the challenge!"
Jonathan: Blowing the challenge? Sure, but I want Norm to go, and that means that I need to get Juan and Angie on my side. This won't be easy...
As he's walking off, Angie appears out from behind a tree. She finds the field covered in paint. "Well, someone's gotta fix this or we'll lose," she said to herself, covering up all the Bunnies' paint.
CHALLENGE UPDATE:
Remaining Bouncing Bunnies: Flora, Paul
Remaining Happy Hens: Angie, Jonathan
Forest
"Look, Flora, there's the Lover Boy," Paul shouted. He aimed and fired several times. Jonathan dodged the first few shots, but eventually let the last one hit him. "Gotcha, weirdo," Paul muttered.
"That wasn't very nice," Flora said, half-joking.
"Oh!" Paul jumped up, startled. "Sorry, you're right." When they weren't looking, Angie appeared from behind and hit Flora. Paul turned in anger to see Angie, giggling evilly. "This ain't over, anger girl," he shouted at her. Angie bounced around, for a while, firing all over the place. Paul easily maneuvered around all the shots. "You're a lousy shot," he teased.
"Wrong," Angie said, smirking. Paul looked around and figured out what she meant. Everywhere around her had Hen paint on it. She then shot and hit Paul in his state of shock.
"The Happy Hens win today!" Chris announced. "Bunnies, you've got an elimination to do."
"No way!" Jonathan complained. "They had way more ground covered! What about that giant field?" Ethan shot him a dirty glare.
Ethan: Proof that the guy threw the challenge and wants Norm out. Guess he'll have to settle for winning tonight.
Dining Facility, Bouncing Bunnies
"So someone's gotta go," Kara said. "Sorry I didn't really do my part."
"As am I," Luna confessed. "I admit I could have done better."
Kayla groaned at them. "All I'm hearing is, 'I want to save my butt so I don't go home.' Drop the niceness, it won't get either of you anywhere."
Helio spoke up. "Me did well today and no go home for me." Kayla just scoffed and stormed off. As she was leaving, someone grabbed her arm. She turned around. "What do you want?"
The person revealed himself to be Ethan. "Listen, I don't know how to explain this to you, but if you want to save yourself, just do as I say, ok?"
Kayla looked suspiciously at the redhead. "What do I have to gain from that?"
Ethan shrugged. "I don't know," he said nonchalantly, "a place in the game?"
Kayla sighed. "Fine, just tell me how to vote, and I can handle the rest." They shook hands.
Ethan: That felt awful, as it does, but I'm getting to a place where soon I won't need to do it. Once Jonathan's gone, I can make amends with everyone...I hope.
Elimination 9, Bouncing Bunnies
Chris stood at the campfire with six marshmallows for the Bouncing Bunnies. "Well," he said, "I have to say, you all did poorly today. Helio and Luna, you sucked in general. Randall, looked like you were onto something, then lost. Paul and Flora, distracted much? And twins, not your best performance. I'd say anyone has a chance at that launchpad, but it won't be Luna," He said, tossing a marshmallow to her. She smiled. "Also safe...
Paul,
Flora,
Kara,
Kayla." He tossed them all marshmallows. Helio and Randall were in the bottom two. "Helio," Chris said, "You sucked today, and haven't really done anything significant, and Randall. Oh Randall, the longer you stay, the more injured you get."
"I just want to say-" Randall started.
"Oh, no one wants to hear it," Chris interrupted. "The big loser is...

...
...
...

...

...

...
...you, Randall," Chris finished. Helio got his final marshmallow of the night.
"Me sorry you had to go," Helio admitted. "Me just wanted to stay."
"Gonna say it, dude," Chris said. "I'm gonna miss you."
"Really?" Randall asked.
"Yeah," Chris said. "Without your constant injuries, I need a new source of ratings."
"Hey, I'll take it," Randall said as he stepped on the launch pad. Chris pressed the button, sending him off. While most people screamed after being launched, Randall didn't. "This isn't the highest I've been," Randall was heard shouting. "This thing gets no altitude."
Chris growled at him. "Chef, up the altitude for next elimination." Chef nodded and wrote it down on a notepad.
Jonathan: I was serious about what I said last night. He spoke, and now he's gone. So sad. Oh wait, no I'm not.
Outside Confessional
Ethan and Norm walked out. "We got it again," Norm said. "But shouldn't we focus of booting Helio like you suggested.
Ethan shrugged. "The seed was planted, it was only a matter of time." He turned to his friend. "You need to watch yourself. Someone's obviously gunning for you too."
Norm ignored it. "It's been twice, I'm not concerned yet." Just then, Luna approached.
"Welp," Ethan said, "I know when I'm not wanted." He walked off.
"How are you doing?" She asked.
"I know something, and I'm concerned to do anything about it," Norm said. "Could you help?"
Luna read his mind. "Do nothing. You'll be fine."
"Are you sure?" Norm asked. "It could help someone."
"He'll deal with it," Luna concluded. "Goodnight. I do like these nightly talks."
"As do I," Norm agreed. "Goodnight." They both went to their respective campsites.
Karon Island, Dock
The camera cut to Chris on the dock. "And there goes our resident pain magnet slash mountain man. Who is up next for the big launcher? Is Flora gonna make a decision?"
"Not yet!" Flora said off-camera."
"Why does everyone interrupt me!" Chris complained.
"Sorry!" Flora responded.
"Anyway," Chris growled, then shot back to a smile. "Will Jonathan succeed again? Find out next time on Total! Drama! Karon Island!
(END OF CHAPTER)
Votes:

Randall: Helio
Total: Randall(4), Helio(3)
Eliminated: Randall
Remaining Bouncing Bunnies: Flora, Helio, Kara, Kayla, Luna, Paul
Remaining Happy Hens: Angie, Ethan, Jonathan, Juan, Norm
Eliminated: Gretchen, Chad, Sheldon, Daniel, Hannah, Madison, Alexa, Sarah, Randall
And so Randall is now gone.
Congrats to Zibster for guessing Randall's elimination!
Eliminated Character Fact:
Randall was supposed to be a generic character, fodder, but a summer trip to the San Juan Mountains made it an idea to change his character. I also made him the season pain magnet, so that's why he got so far. (He was originally supposed to go right before Madison.
Randall was also supposed to get together with Alexa in an earlier version, but the idea was scrapped for another couple idea I had for next season. It was hinted at earlier in the story.
As always, guess the next eliminated, follow, favorite, and PLEASE REVIEW! I want to hear your feed back.
And, so, uh, bye.
