A/N: Obviously, Chris, Chef and the show doesn't belong to me. It belongs to FreshTV, Cake Entertainment, Teletoon, and Cartoon Network. All 6 Contestants belong to users on this site.
"Last time on Total Drama: Battle of the Sexes, the final six competed in a spooky night challenge in an old haunted mansion! The challenge? Spend the night and avoid being captured by Sr. Gregory, who was played by Chef! This episode was full of milestones! Rose and Corey finally got together after a summer of being oblivious! Romulus, in desperate need of a partner, allied with Dutch! In the end, Jennifer won the challenge by blowing up the house, leaving room for my spa! Today, it's a fast-paced episode with no room for breath!"
The sun had just began to rise.
The birds chirped.
The ocean waves casually crashed against the shore.
Corey and Rose sat together on the beach, watching the sun rise into the sky.
"Isn't this great?" Rose asked.
"Sure is." Corey said.
They looked in each other's eyes.
They both leaned in for a kiss.
"You're a stupid idiot, that's what you are!" Dutch shouted, walking out of the shelter after Romulus.
Corey and Rose sighed.
"Seriously? A week with these two is enough to drive anyone crazy." Rose sighed.
"I know what you mean." Corey sighed, "We haven't been able to do anything without getting stares or being interrupted."
Rose sighed.
"I told you! It's what I'm going to do! If you want to do it too, fine! Just get out of the way!" Romulus shouted
"As if! You don't have the guts to! You're a weakling!" Dutch shouted.
"What is that supposed to mean? I'm just as strong as you are!" Romulus said.
Corey and Rose grumbled.
"Do you want to go visit Jennifer and Josiah?" Corey asked.
"Sure. Anything is better then this." Rose said.
Both goth up, and walked off, holding hands.
"They're gone." Romulus breathed, "Finally."
"Spending a week with the lovers is just as bad as spending a week with those other lovers." Dutch said.
"Okay. Any plans?" Romulus asked.
"Well- with RoRey in place, we now have two couples against us-" Dutch began.
"Wait, did you just say Rorey?" Romulus asked.
"Yeah. Rose and Corey combined?" Dutch said.
"Oh. That's kind of adorable." Romulus said, "Too bad I hate the people in the ship."
Dutch nodded.
"Anyway," He continued, "I feel it's time to break the strong bond of Jennifer and Josiah."
"I was thinking the same thing." Romulus said, smiling devilishly.
Romulus Confessional: Once we can get rid of either Jennifer or Josiah or Rose or Corey, I'm throwing Dutch to the curb.
In the Winner's Cottage, Jennifer and Josiah sat on the sofa, watching the flat screen TV.
"I haven't seen TV in so long." Josiah said, smiling.
"I know! It's crazy to think how long we've been here." Jennifer said.
Josiah looked into Jennifer's eyes.
Jennifer smiled.
The two began to kiss.
There was a knock on the door.
"I'll get it." Jennifer said, getting up.
"No, no! Let me! You are the winner, after all." Josiah said.
Jennifer smiled and sat back down.
Josiah made his way over to the door and opened it.
There stood Rose and Corey.
"Oh! Hey guys! What's up?" Josiah asked.
"We just couldn't stand Romulus and Dutch's constant bickering anymore." Corey said.
"Joe? Who's at the door?" Jennifer called.
"Rose and Corey!" Josiah shouted.
"Ooh! Let them in!" Jennifer cooed.
"Come in!" Josiah cheered.
Corey and Rose were about to step into the cottage.
"Contestants! Please meet at the shelters in ten!" Chris announced.
Corey and Rose sighed.
They turned around and walked off.
Josiah waited for Jennifer and the two walked off as well.
"Good morning!" Chris announced.
The contestants grumbled and rolled their eyes.
"Great greeting!" Chris said.
"Isn't it a bit too early for this?" Romulus asked.
"Nope!" Chris said.
Romulus rolled his eyes.
"Today is a special day!" Chris began.
"How so?" Rose asked.
"I'll tell you, dear Rose! Today our challenge is fairly simple." Chris explained, "It's a triathlon!"
"And how is that special?" Dutch asked.
"Let me explain, guys!" Chris said, frustrated. "There will be, obviously, three legs. The first begins with a thirty kilometer swim to those boats all the way out there. The first who arrives gets first pick of boats! The last gets stuck with whatever crap is left! After that, it's a boat race around the island! It's one whole lap! And be careful! There'll be some obstacles along the way! After you dock your boat, you have to race to the other side of the island, where I'll be waiting at the finish line! Whoever loses is out!"
"What do you mean by that?" Josiah asked.
"Huh?" Chris asked.
"By out? What do you mean?" Corey asked.
"Oh." Chris said, smiling devilishly.
He began to cackle.
The contestants stared at each other.
"Ooh, you'll see!" Chris laughed. "Change into your swimwear! I'll meet you guys back here in five!"
Five minutes later, all of the contestants were decked out in their swimwear.
"Isn't it a little cold for this?" Jennifer asked.
"It is! I chose the coldest day to do this challenge!" Chris laughed.
Jennifer Confessional: I hate him.
"Okay, ready? Set? Go!" Chris shouted.
The final six contestants raced off of the island and dove into the water.
Romulus emerged first.
After spitting out the water in his mouth, he began to swim.
Rose emerged soon after and raced after Romulus.
She flutter-kicked, butterfly-kicked, and breast-stroked her way to first.
Romulus growled and followed after her.
Corey emerged as well and followed after them.
Corey was then pulled down into the water as Dutch emerged.
"Sucks to be you, loser!" Dutch laughed, swimming after the other two.
"Rose has first, Romulus currently has second, and Dutch has third!" Chris announced.
Jennifer emerged and followed, swimming as fast as she could.
Corey came back up, coughing.
He growled and swam after the others, looking for revenge on Dutch.
Josiah swam after them.
The final six swam at top speeds, racing for the boats.
Rose was showing-off, per usual.
"Ugh!" Romulus shouted as water splashed him in the face.
"Sorry!" Rose called.
Romulus growled.
Rose reached the boats before the others and picked the best one.
It was a chrome speedboat.
Rose hopped in and started the engine.
It purred.
Rose smirked and pulled the handle.
The speedboat treaded water.
Rose smiled.
Rose Confessional: My mom made me taking boating classes. *Rolls eyes*
Romulus hopped into the next boat and started up the engine.
He raced after Rose, intent on winning the game.
The boat splashed the remaining contestants who were in the water.
Josiah was the next to grab a boat.
He started it up and held out a hand for Jennifer.
She grabbed it.
Josiah helped Jennifer up and the two flew off.
Corey snagged the next boat.
Dutch began to climb on.
Corey huffed and kicked Dutch in the face.
"Ow!" Dutch cried, falling back into the water.
Corey smiled breathing deeply.
Corey Confessional: That was- That was so liberating! That was for Huck! Did you see that? Agh!
Corey started up the boat and raced off.
Dutch was left there, scowling.
He flopped onto the last boat, a canoe, and began to paddle.
"That kid is so going to get it!" Dutch shouted.
Rose was currently tied up with Romulus.
"Get out of the way!" Romulus shouted, bumping her boat with his.
"Hey! Watch it!" Rose called.
Romulus smiled and bumped her boat again.
Rose's speedboat was sent, veering into sharp rocks.
"Agh!" Rose cried.
Romulus laughed.
Rose unbuckled her seat belt and began to run off the boat.
She did a back-flip in the air, landing in Josiah and Jennifer's boat.
"Whoa!" Jennifer said, "Nice one!"
"Thanks! You don't mind if I ride with you guys do you?" Rose asked.
"Not at all!" Josiah said, shifting the gear.
"Romulus has first! Josiah, Jennifer, and Rose are all tied for second, and Corey has third!" Chris announced.
"Where are those traps?" Romulus asked, looking around.
Just as he said that, a bomb went off, sending Romulus and his boat hurdling backwards.
The three cheered.
Romulus landed in the water just behind their boat.
Romulus' boat came hurdling at him in the water.
The boat then exploded.
Romulus emerged from the water, singed.
He coughed, smoke coming out of his mouth.
Romulus Confessional: *Romulus sneezes, and ash comes out of his nose* You have got to be kidding.
"Did you see that? That was epic!" Josiah said, looking back.
"Josiah..." Jennifer began.
"It was so awesome!"
"Josiah." Rose warned.
"Yeah, just hold up-" Josiah began.
"Josiah!" Both girls shouted.
The boy turned, only narrowly avoiding the giant wall in front of them.
Corey was maneuvering the boat around the mines in the water.
He looked behind him, seeing Dutch paddle with a certain ferocity.
Corey's eyes widened and he began to steer faster.
To his right, Romulus jumped onto his boat.
"Agh! What are you doing here? Get out!" Corey shouted.
"No way! You're taking me to the island." Romulus said, laying on the floor of the boat.
Corey grumbled.
"Go faster." Romulus wheezed.
"You look like a burnt weenie." Corey said, rolling his eyes.
"My boat exploded, idiot." Romulus said.
Corey sighed and moved the boat in order to avoid the giant wall.
Romulus sat up.
Once he did, his eyes widened.
"Watch out!" The manipulative boy shouted.
Corey looked forward too late.
His boat hit a mine and it sent them into the air.
Corey and Romulus landed on the floor of Jennifer, Josiah, and Rose's boat.
"What are you two doing here?" Jennifer asked.
"Our boat exploded." Corey puffed.
"You're helping him?" Rose asked.
"He kind of just jumped into my boat when his explode-" Corey began.
"Agh!" Dutch shouted, falling on top of Rose.
"Ouch!" Rose cried, "Get off of me!"
Dutch got up rubbing his head.
"There sure are a lot of people on this one boat." Corey said.
"I wonder how many people it can hold u-" Josiah began.
At that point, the boat sank.
Dutch Confessional: Really? A boat that sinks with six people? Way to cheap out, Chris.
The six teenagers fell into the water.
"Oh great." Jennifer sighed.
"Now what?" Romulus asked.
"Looks like you guys have to swim!" Chris announced of the PA System.
"Seriously?"
"That is so lame."
"That's way too far!"
"I can't even swim that good, guys!"
"I refuse. Too much work."
"Whatever."
They began to swim once again.
Jennifer was leading the pack.
Corey followed after her.
Romulus followed them, relentless and ruthless.
He had to win this challenge.
Rose was hardly trying, maintain fourth easily.
Josiah and Dutch were swimming side by side, glaring at each other.
Jennifer continued to swim, until she felt something brush up against her leg.
"What was that?" Jennifer asked, coming to a halt.
"Huh?" Corey asked, floating in the water.
"I felt something brush up against my-" Jennifer began.
"Whoa!" Josiah cried, "I felt it too!"
"You guys are rediculou-" Dutch began, before his eyes went wide.
"Look! Shark!" Rose cried, pointing to the fin a few feet away.
They all screamed.
"What are we going to do?!" Romulus asked.
"Swim! Swim for your lives!" Chris announced over the PA System, "They're man-eaters!"
Josiah Confessional: That's seriously dangerous! What is wrong with Chris? We could have died you know! But... that would make excellent TV. I mean seeing kids get attacked by a shark? Totally wicked!
They began to swim, screaming their heads off.
They swam until they all made it to the shore.
The six final contestants laid on the hot sand, breathing heavily.
"Why are you taking a break? It isn't over yet! Start running!" Chris announced.
Josiah got up and grabbed Jennifer's hand.
They ran into the forest.
Dutch ran into the forest.
"They're stupid." Romulus said.
He ran around the forest, on the beach.
Corey helped Rose up.
"Thanks." Rose said, smiling.
"Come on!" Corey said.
The couple ran in the other direction of Romulus.
They ran on the beach, hoping to out race the others.
"Hey look! It's the tree!" Jennifer said.
Josiah hung his head.
"Something wrong?" Josiah asked.
"We passed that tree already!" Josiah sighed, "We walked in a circle!"
"No way are we lost in the forest!" Jennifer cried.
"Relax! All we have to do is walk forward! Forget the path! We can do it!" Josiah said.
"Are you sure?" Jennifer asked.
"Entirely sure!" Josiah reassured.
Josiah Confessional: I wasn't. But I couldn't let her know that.
The two walked off, pushing away the foliage as they walked.
Dutch walked in the forest, looking around for something that could be used as a weapon.
He was on the fence about everything in this forest.
Dutch Confessional: I was kidnapped by those savages. Twice! I think I need- No! I deserve a weapon to bash their heads in!
Dutch observed his surroundings and found a branch on the floor.
Dutch smirked and picked it up.
He walked forward, wielding the branch as a deadly weapon.
"Nothing is going to get the best of me anymore!" Dutch laughed.
He heard a rustle behind him.
He let out a high girly scream and ran away.
A bunny came out of the foliage, content and happy.
Romulus was running on the beach.
With every step he took, he looked down.
Worry filled his face.
What if Chris had planted mines deep in the sand?
Not impossible, but highly unlikely.
It was Chris after all.
Romulus was running at top speeds.
His lungs burned.
But then he could see it, and it motivated him further.
It was the finish line.
It was so close, yet so far.
How was he going to reach it before-
And then there they were.
There he was.
He was running for the finish, too.
"How are we going to stop him?!" Rose asked as she ran.
She wasn't breathing heavily at all.
"I've got an idea!" Corey breathed, "Keep running for the finish!"
"Where are you going?" Rose called.
"Just trust me!" Corey said, running at Romulus.
Rose shrugged, running for the finish as Corey advised.
Corey raced for Romulus, shouting at the top of his lungs.
Romulus stopped in his tracks.
His eyes were wide with fear.
He began to backtrack, running away from Corey.
Rose saw everything and smiled.
Rose Confessional: That's so sweet. He wanted me to win!
Rose then crossed the finish line.
"And 'The Shoe In To Win' wins the challenge! Now it's just a race to not lose!" Chris informed.
Rose smiled and clapped.
Corey raced back to the finish line and entrapped Rose in a hug.
"Nice job!" Corey cheered.
"Thanks!" Rose cooed.
"Corey gets second!" Chris said.
Romulus skidded to a stop as he crossed the finish.
"Romulus, you get third!" Chris said, "Not that it matters."
Romulus rolled his eyes.
"Now we're just waiting for Jennifer, Josiah, and Dutch!" Chris confirmed.
The three contestants stood, waiting for their competition to arrive.
Dutch was still running as fast as he could, not looking back.
"They're after me!" Dutch shouted as he reached the beach.
"Who's after you?" Chris called.
"The natives! The savages!" Dutch shouted.
Chris laughed.
Dutch ran to the finish line.
"Dutch gets fourth!" Chris said.
Dutch was breathing heavily.
"Find anything yet?" Jennifer asked.
"Nope." Josiah said.
"Wait!" Jennifer called.
Josiah turned.
"Huh?" He asked.
Jennifer was pointing.
An opening in the foliage showed that the finish line and the beach were close.
"Yes!" Josiah cheered.
"Come on!" Jennifer called.
The couple ran out of the forest and towards the finish line.
At that point the helicopter arrived.
"Huh? Why is that here already?" Corey asked.
Rose and Romulus' eyes widened.
"What?" Corey and Dutch asked.
"What did Chris say when he was explaining the challenge?" Rose asked.
"That if you cross last, you're out." Corey repeated, "Whatever that means."
"Whoever crosses the finish line last-" Romulus began.
Corey and Dutch gasped.
"No!" Corey said, in disbelief.
"Yes!" Chris replied laughing
Once they neared it, Josiah stopped, slightly panting.
"After you." Josiah said, smiling.
Jennifer smiled and crossed the finish line.
Josiah followed her, crossing the finish line last.
"Josiah! Congrats!" Chris said.
"Huh?" Josiah asked.
"You're out of the game!" Chris explained.
"What?! How?" Josiah and Jennifer asked.
"You crossed the finish line last! I told you that whoever crosses the finish line last is out!" Chris laughed, "Bye bye!"
Josiah's eyes widened.
"No..." He whispered.
"Josiah! No!" Jennifer said, running to hug him.
Josiah stood there, one arm around Jennifer, one in his hair.
"I can't do this without you!" Jennifer said, holding back tears.
"Yes you can." Josiah said, "I mean, you proved that I don't always have to protect you, right?"
"But that's different!" Jennifer said.
"No it isn't! You can do this! Stay strong! I believe in you!" Josiah said.
He used his index finger to lift Jennifer's head.
"Hey." Josiah said.
Jennifer looked up at him.
They kissed.
"Aww." Chris said, "How touching!"
The two separated.
"It's been great playing with you." Corey said, "You were a great teammate. And friend."
"Thanks. Keep it up!" Josiah said, "Bye Rose. Good luck!"
"Thanks! I'll keep an eye on Jennifer for you." Rose said.
"No need. She can take care of herself." Josiah said, climbing onto the rope ladder.
The helicopter began to take off.
"Bye, guys!" Josiah called as he flew away.
"Rose! Pick someone to take with you to the cottage!" Chris said.
Rose looked at Corey and the distraught Jennifer.
Rose sneaked a glance at Corey.
Corey nodded.
"I'll understand." Corey said, smiling.
Rose nodded, "I choose Jennifer."
"Great! Everyone get a good night's sleep. You're all safe for now."
The final five walked off.
Romulus and Dutch were smiling.
Romulus Confessional: Yes, yes, yes! He's gone! Finally! I've been waiting to break them up and it finally happened because of his incompetence! Woohoo!
"Well, that's it! Come back for another episode of Total Drama: Battle of the Sexes!" Chris said, "I'm your host, Chris McLean, signing off!"
