Micky is standing at the end of the pier smiling.
"Last time on Total Drama Bootcamp! Teams went out to survive their own horror movie, some knew what they were doing, some didn't and some couldn't make up a decision before they were kidnapped. Unfortunately, it was the scaredy cat Zack who went home." She smirked maliciously.
"Find out today's challenge and many more on, Total. Drama! BOOTCAMP!"

*whistle*
Everyone whistles around the campfire. Before the title lights flicker out, a black shadow is seem holding an inanimate object at Cassie.
Beach
Nikki was reading a sappy romance book at the beach when Cole came up from behind her.
"Whatcha reading?" He asked making her throw the book into the water in surprise. She watched it sink to the bottom and turned around angrily.
"You idiot! That was my favourite book!" She half screamed, half cried. He chuckled at sat next to her.
"Y'know, out of these people here, I find you to be my favourite," he commented. Nikki blushed and turned away. He smirked and looked into the calm waves.
"Because everyone else here is either, love sick, rude, stupid, crazy or pregnant!" He chuckled. At the last word, Nikki swung a fist at Cole's chest. He didn't seem bothered by it.
"Don't insult a pregnant woman!" She spat before standing up. She looked around before looking at Cole.
"Hey, where is everyone?" She asked curiously. Cole shrugged and looked over his shoulder.
"Maybe we're the final two," Cole suggested. Nikki shrugged and began walking away.
"Attention Nikki and Cole!" Chef's voice echoed through the loudspeakers.
"Today's challenge is to try and find your sleeping and buried teammates and bring them back to the cabins." He continued. Nikki blushed when Cole folded his arms, flexing his muscles.
"The first team to have all their members in the cabins will be the winners!" Chef added.
"Oh, and if you find one of our four interns, they will help you with certain clues," he signed off. Cole looked over at Nikki smirking.
"May the best person win," he whispered into her ear before walking away.
*Nikki's Confession*
"Ok, I have a crush on Julian, but that doesn't mean that I can say that Cole is hot!" She stuttered at the last word.
*Cole's Confession*
"This may surprise you, but I meant those words to Nikki back there," he muttered.
*End Confessional*
Beach
Nikki is holding a rusty shovel as she walks along the beach. She notices a drop in the sand and begins digging. She throws sand all over the place as she continues to dig.
"Geez, how deep did Chef dig these?" She muttered.
*Chef's Confession*
"Just under the surface." He comments and the camera zooms out revealing Micky who looks a little paranoid. Chef shrugs.
*End Confessional*
Nikki had already dug a large hole that completely ate her. She wiped her forehead before looking around.
"Geez, maybe I'm searching in the wrong place," she muttered.
Swamp
Cole rushed towards the swamp and was holding a bright yellow play shovel and a a light blue pail. He begins shovelling the mud and dirt and he sees a little wood.
"Hm," he thinks before he begins pulling the crate out. He struggles to do it and sighs. He angrily tears his shirt off and reveals his six pack. He attempts to pull the crate out again and it has an apes engraved in the lid. He smirks and grabs the shovel from the mud and uses it as a crowbar to lift the lid. It doesn't barge.
*Cole's Confession*
"Where the heck does Betsy find those crowbars?" He complains, shirtless.
*End Confessional*
He quickly runs away and several seconds later, he is holding a crowbar.
"Under your bed? Seriously Betsy?" He whispers before opening the crate. He peered in to see a sleeping Alexis. Rolling his eyes, he picked her up and carried her bridal style to the cabin.
"Cole?" She croaked as she was getting up. Cole refused to make eye contact and jumped roughly, causing Alexis to throw her arms around his neck for dear life.
*Alexis' Confession*
"Um, that was surprisingly comfortable," she says, unsure of what to say.
*End Confessional*
Cole threw Alexis on her bed before walking off. She sat on the bed speechless before falling asleep again.
Beach
The beach is littered with deep hole as Nikki continues to dig. She is in a shallower hole before she hits something. Blushing, she cleans the top of the crates off of sand and sees in black letters, 'INTERN' and sighs. She uses a crowbar and opens the lid quickly.
"Geez! Locking me up in a crate!" Danika rages climbing out of the crate quickly. Nikki looks puzzled and Danika sighs.
"Sometimes, the shovel is no use," she mutters before running off. Nikki stands puzzled before walking into a hole, surprising herself. Nikki climbs out and sees something in the water. Her eyes go wide and she runs into the water, not caring about the clothes she is wearing.
She rushes towards a blue flag and sees a crate at the floor of the lake. She sighs before taking a deep breath and diving in. She meets the crate in little time and uses her crowbar to open the lid. Her face begins going red, lacking oxygen as she opens the crate to reveal a sleeping Shan. With the little breath she had left she dragged him to the water surface and gasped for air.
"Geez! What the heck?" She screamed as she panted. Shan was still resting above the water and Nikki sighed, dragging him across the water surface. When she reached land, she found a wheelbarrow lodged in between some rocks and hauled the tall Korean boy into the barrel before wheeling it away.
Forest
Cole was walking blankly in the forest looking for the Ape symbol. He smirked when he saw a small bump in the ground and began digging. He found the crate with an Ape symbol and smirk. He opened in and a swarm of bees escaped and began charging at Cole. Surprised, he began screaming as he rushed away.
He found a puddle of water and jumped into it, holding his breath as the bees hovered over him. As soon as they flew away, Cole resurfaced and sighed.
*Cole's Confession*
"Not funny, Hatchet! Not funny!"
*End Confessional*
Cole began shivering due to the cold air against his wet chest and back. He looked in the box again and didn't see anything else. Angrily, he stormed away.
Cliff
Nikki was standing at the edge of the cliff as she looked into the water. Suddenly, she saw a mobile crate swing from below her. Her eyes went wide with surprise and she carefully positioned herself so she was holding onto the edge of the cliff.
"This isn't safe," she stuttered as she slipped further. When the crate swung so it was under her feet, she jumped. It wobbled a bit and Nikki was about to lose her balance. She swayed to the edge of the crate where the box was obviously unbalanced. The crate tipped, still being supported by the rope but Nikki slipped and she lost her balance.
Chef
The scream pauses and Chef and Micky are at the edge of their seats nibbling on popcorn, glued to the screen. Danika stands behind them, rolling her eyes.
"What will happen to Nikki? Will Cole find another person before the bees do? Will everyone get out alive? Will Chef or Michaela actually do anything? Find out when we return right here on Total. Drama! BOOTCAMP!" Danika screams before a bowl of popcorn hits her in the face.
Cliff
As Nikki slips and loses her balance, the rope snaps and the two fall down together. In mid air, Nikki pulls herself above the crate and they hit the water. They resurface and Nikki is panting heavily.
*Nikki's Confession*
"Scarred for life!" She stutters dramatically.
*End Confessional*
She grabs the crowbar from her back pocket before opening the crate quickly. She peers in and Liv is rolled up in the corner. Feeling guilty, Nikki drags her to shore and checks her breathing and heart beat.
"SHE'S ALIVE!" She screamed happily.
Forest
Cole walks through the forest holding his little shovel as he looks around. He hears a sudden creak and he stops to look around.
"What the?" He asks as he looks above him and the crate snapped, falling on his back. Cole shoves it off and angrily rips a plank of the crate off followed by another until it was destroyed. In lay Avery curled into a ball due to the cold morning air. Cole slung Avery over his shoulder and carried the taller boy to the cabins.
Apes Common Room
Avery woke up to see Alexis in the corner, looking out the window.
"I had the strangest dream," he yawned. Alexis looked over to him and cocked an eyebrow.
"I dreamt that I was carried by Cole. I mean, shirtless Cole!" He added seeming very shaken up. Alexis nodded slowly.
"It was just a dream," she muttered before returning to the window. Her eyes suddenly flared with blood red.
Buffalos Common Room
Liv and Shan woke up in their beds and were confused to be drenched in sea water.
"Um, what happened?" Liv asked as she walked into the common room to see Shan. He shrugged and looked at a note on the table.
"Campers,
A challenge is in play but only for Nikki and Cole.
Farewell and stay in your cabins!
Chef!" It read. Liv rolled her eyes and sighed.
"I'm gonna have a shower," she announced before walking away.
Bonfire Pit
Cole and Nikki met up at the pier and Nikki immediately began blushing when she saw his exposed chest. Cole smirked and walked up to her.
"Like what you see?" He teased when Nikki heard a shout from below. They looked at each other before they began digging.
"Dude, a toy shovel?" Nikki teased as Cole struggled to dig. Cole glared at Nikki.
"Wanna swap?" He asked and Nikki threw a dirt ball at him before finding a crate. She brushed the dirt away and saw the 'INTERN' label imprinted on it. She tore it open and Cole sighed, defeated.
"So, Nikki?" Julian said bitterly. Nikki blushed as she was standing between the boy she has a crush on and the boy she found attractive.
"Nah, J! Nikki and I were just playing," Cole said shifting on his feet. Julian didn't seem convinced.
"With your shirt off?" Julian asked making Nikki blush harder. Julian noticed that and looked angrily at her.
"Who do you like more, Nicolette?" Julian spat angrily. Nikki shifted uncomfortably in her stance and looked at Julian, then at Cole, before returning to Julian.
Suddenly, she pressed her lips against Julian's and pulled him closer to her. This action surprised Cole as he began walking away defeated.
*Cole's Confession*
"I'm not jealous!" He roared before his eye twitched.
*Julian's Confession*
He is smiling dazed.
*Nikki's Confession*
"Yeah, I was just teasing Julian. Cole's hot but Julian's not just physically attractive." She said sighing affectionately.
*End Confessional*
Hours Later
After four long, excruciating hours, Nikki found Johan, Viola and Vincent whereas Cole found Chad, Aureceli and a bear. They only needed to find Jessica and Cheyenne.
They found themselves back at the beach smiling playfully at each other.
"So, one Ape, one Buffalo and one intern," Nikki nodded. Cole smirked and they pulled out their maps. Cole had crossed off several locations on his map and Nikki had marked her map with stickers indication what was found. They looked at each other's before their eyes found themselves looking at the area outside the villas.
"I'm going to check on the others," Nikki lied before she dashed off to the court. Cole was hot on her heels as they found themselves at the court digging quite frantically whilst their teammates cheered from windows. Nikki found her box relatively quickly whilst Cole was still digging.
"See you at elimination!" She teased as she continued to clean the crate. When she needed the crowbar, she found Cole digging with the thin piece of metal. She frowned and tried using the toy shovel to open the crate.
"Or you might be going," Cole teased when he found the surface of his crate. The remaining two continued to open the crates when Cheyenne climbed out of Nikki's crate. Angered, Chad pounced on the window but Jessica popped up too and the four contestants quickly ran off to their cabins.
"Finished!" Nikki and Cole screamed in unison.
Chef and Micky along with the three interns walked out to judge.
"Oh," was all that Micky could say. Danika smirked at Jessica and Julian winked at Nikki. Vincent looked at Cheyenne who nodded, pressing her lips together.
"Well," Micky tried to go on but failed and looked at Chef for help.
"Ok, I've got an idea! Since we have one more intern left, how 'bout Cole and Nikki nominate a teammate to search for them," Chef suggested. Micky nodded.
Boney Island
Jessica and Johan walked through Boney Island frowning.
"So, the last intern is here?" Jessica asked, trying to start a conversation.
"Yep." Was all Johan said. Jessica looked down.
"So, Liv?" Jessica asked and Johan looked confusedly at her and raised an eyebrow.
"We had an alliance when I was on the Soldiers," she added. Johan nodded as they found a broken cage and their eyes went owed with shock.
"Uh, oh," Johan whimpered as he saw the boot prints in the mud. They examined in closely when Jessica felt a hand on her shoulder. She yelped and turned around to see Zack smiling at her happily.
Outside the Villas
"And the Apes win!" Micky announced. The Apes cheered and the Buffalos groaned.
"We'll see you at elimination," she added as they went inside.
Buffalos Common Room
Shan and Viola sat at the bar stools chatting happily, Johan and Liv were playing pool against Cheyenne whilst Nikki was at the door flirting with Julian.
"So who are you voting for Chey?" Johan asked, his arms around Liv. Chey looked up and shrugged before JoLi hit the ball.
"I guess we should get rid of a threat or something," she added getting a ball in the hole.
"I was thinking Nikki?" Liv suggested and Viola peeked up.
"If they're voting for Nikki, it's our chance to get rid of her," Viola suggested to Shan who smiled.
"I'm in," he whispered before Nikki walked in.
"You called?" She asked.
Elimination Ceremony
The Buffalos were gathered around the bonfire pit as Chef stood with the marshmallows.
"Because today was Nikki-central, we're not gonna comment on your performance today. So we'll go straight into the marshmallows." He commented. Nikki looked nervous and Viola grinned.
"The first marshmallow goes to...
...
...
...
"Johan!" The musician happily accepted him marshmallow and sat down next to Liv.
...
...
...
"Liv!" The dancer smiled and took her marshmallow before returning to her seat.
...
...
...
"Cheyenne!" She sighed and ate her marshmallow happily.
...
...
...
"Viola!" The purple haired girl smiled and bit into her marshmallow, glaring at a nervous Nikki. The remaining two gave very different expressions. Nikki was nervous whilst Shan looked confident.
"The last marshmallow goes to..."
*Nikki's Confession*
"This is the first time I've been in the bottom two and I'm nervous," she whimpered.
*Shan's Confession*
"This is gonna be good," he smirked.
*End Confessional*
...
...
...
...
...
...
...
...
...
...
"Nikki!" She squealed in excitement and rushed over to claim her marshmallow. Shan looked horrified and Viola shared this look.
"See ya, Shan!" Chef smirked as he dragged the boy away. Shan was thrown on the boat and frowned until he saw Mai smiling happily at him.
"Shan! It doesn't matter that you lost," she comforted him. "Because! people felt so depressed about my elimination that they gave me more than a million dollars for my depression!"
The Manipulative Twin Antagonists smiled maliciously as the boat drifted away.
Buffalos Common Room (earlier)
"I was thinking Nikki," Liv suggested. Johan shook his head and Chey copied.
"I was actually thinking Shan, I mean, he kicked me and Chey off the cliff," Johan reasoned and Liv smiled.
"Plus, he tried manipulating me when we were back in the Soldiers," Johan added making Liv nod.
"Ok, Shan it is then, we'll just tell Nikki," she smirked.
"You called?" Nikki asked.
