Standing at a ruin of a train station is McTaggart, the host of the show, as he waits for a train of "guests" to arrive. He begins to get himself ready when the cameras begin to start filming.
"Welcome viewers, I'm McTaggart, your new host to this all-new reality TV show, in a place I like call: Kaskitewaw Valley! A Hidden valley is just around several hills, where 18 guests will try to risk their own necks… and possibly others, as they will come across dangerous locations, dangerous animals, dangerous challenges, and dangerous teammates to win 3 million dollars! Who will rise, who will fall, and most importantly… who will get eaten up, find out on…Total Drama Manor!"
The train begins to enter the dark cave, inside the tunnel are touches on each side, lighting the cave. Soon the train exited the cave to the ruins surrounded by a dark forest. The guests were at the passenger car get ready to get off the train. The train soon made its last stop to drop them off. McTaggart prepared to introduce his guests, "Let's say hello to our vict… err players, shall we?"
"Meet Sakura, Blake, Jennifer, Craig, Logan, Jax…"
Sakura then notice something. "Hey check it out, the storm is gone." They looked up at the sky… to see clear dark sky with the stars shining all around the crescent moon. "Wow isn't beautiful?" Craig asked.
"Rio, Tom, Jasmine, Omar, Clara…"
Parrie then pushed Clara off the train to the ground, to make her entrance. "All the world's a stage, and all the men and women merely players, they have their exits and their entrances… for I 'am Perrie, queen of the stag…" She was then pushed off by Kaylee, and landed on top of Clara.
"OMG!, OMG!, OMG!, OMG!, OMG!, OMG!, OMG!, OMG!, OMG!, OMG!, OMG!, OMG!, OMG!, OMG!, OMG!, OMG!, OMG!, OMG!, OMG!, OMG!, OMG!, OMG!, OMG!, OMG!, OMG!, OMG!, I can't believe were here, this is so exciting, were in the show, after being that train for really long time, but not anymore and now were gonna be in teams, and oh no what if all my friends won't in the same team or worst, they'll be voted off that would be horrible, but for now they'll all here, and it's gonna be GREAT, YEEHAW!" As started to cartwheel over Perrie and Clara. They soon got themselves up, and walked to the group.
"Kaylee, Henry, Daniel, Elizabeth, Maria, and Felix." They all soon walked over to the station, to meet their host.
"Greetings players, I'm your host McTaggart, and welcome to Total Drama Manor!... is what I would say if we were there that is."
"Um, so why aren't we, dude?" Daniel asked.
"Yeah how come were not there?" Jasmine also asked.
The door of the locomotive then opened to see the conductor. As they see the conductor soon climbed out of the train, and revealed himself to be Steward, the butler of the show. "This is Steward, he will my assistant of the show, and will insure every needs… but ask him for something and he'll put you in body bag, and don't worry about the train, it'll be safely back to the Toronto train station." An intern then appears to climb into the locomotive, and then as the train started to run backwards to the cave, they could hear the intern laughing manically, "Freedom, FREEDOM!" This spooked the guests a little.
"It now time for teams to formed, by using one of the greatest of systems to pick teams!" As Steward pulls out a hat with his left hand and holding several small sheets of papers and putting them in the hat, and shuffles the papers in the hat, "Pulling names out of a hat, how Original" Omar said sarcastically
"What can we say we're cheap." As McTaggart pulled a paper from the hat "right than for teams, the first name is… Craig, looks like you really are good luck after all." He's continues to pull out names.
"Jennifer… Felix… Jasmine… Blake… and Henry, this team is now set."
Felix than notice something, "Hey hold on, zhere are only 6 here, shouldn't zhere be 9 to make 2 teams?"
"Who said there would be, and what would be more challenging, than having 3 teams against each other!" McTaggart announced. The teenagers gasped to this, as McTaggart was pulling names. "That was team 3, is now time for team 2…"
"…Sakura… Rio… Elizabeth… Logan… Kaylee… and Maria, you are now team 2."
Kaylee then gasped, "Wait, I won't be with other friends?" Kaylee then started to get tears in her eyes and yelled "NNNNOOOOOO!" and started crying. Jax tried to cheer her up. "Hey come on don't cry… maybe you could try switching teams or something, okay?" Kaylee quickly changed back to her cheerful self "okie dokie!"
McTaggart then announced, "Since we only have 6 names left in the hat, it's simple who will be in team 1…"
"…Jax… Daniel… Tom… Clara… Perrie… and Omar as of now, your team will be…"
Steward pulls out a flag from his sleeve. The logo has a small purple scrawny bat screeching. It is mounted on a pale purple circle with a darker purple ring around it.
"The Boney Bats!"
"That's awesome dude!" Daniel shouted with joy while Omar simple just said "Whatever."
"Team 2 will be known as…"
Steward then pulls another flag from his sleeve. The logo has a Yellow angry stretchy leech. It is mounted on a pale yellow circle with a darker yellow ring around it.
"The Lunatic Leeches!"
The girls were disgusted by that name, and even Logan said "That disgusting!" which made Elizabeth chuckled a bit.
"And finally, team 3's name is…"
Steward pulls out the last flag from his sleeve. The logo has a blue striped squid with 2 small arms and 2 smaller arms. It is mounted on a pale blue circle with a darker blue ring around it.
"The Soured Squids!"
"Weird names, totally?" Craig simple said.
"Totally…" Jasmine agreed, "…So would these "things" really exist?"
"They would indeed and only in… Kaskitewaw Valley! A mysterious valley filled with unknown wonders and dangers, where you'll have race to the very heart of the valley, where the castle is standing… at the locked gate!"
"WHAT!" The teens all shouted.
"That's right; this is your very 1st challenge:
The castle will have 3 locks to keep the gate shut, and the only way to unlock them is to find 3 keys, which are being held by your mascots. The trails beyond theses woods will lead to several caves and will all lead the way to the valley. Your challenge is to find and catch your mascots without hurting them, bring them to the gate to unlock the locks, and the team who brings their mascot to the manor first will win an advantage to the next challenge, so without further delay, is there anything you like to ask?"
Just before anyone could say anything…
"Good, on you mark…" Then Daniel started to bolt to the woods, "ALRIGHT! Let's do this!"
"Hold it, I didn't say GO!" McTaggart shouted.
"Well now you did, so let's GO!" Kaylee shouted as all everyone else started to run to the trail, as McTaggart and Steward Watches them race into the dark foggy forest. "It appears they've started sir; do you think any of them will survive?"
"Well… if they do, what kind ratings would that give us, Steward?"
"Good point, sir."
The Lunatic leeches and the Boney bats were ahead of The Soured squids, as they started to disappear through the fog. Soon only the Soured squid we're trying to follow the trail… if there was a trail. The forest was very dark, covering the moon and stars, by the tree's leaves. They soon started to hear strange sounds all around the forest. "These woods sure look really weird don't they?" Jennifer asked Felix. "Zhese woodz are nothing! Compared to Home woods, bears, wolves, and more bears around every corner of woods, so zhese woodz are not zo tough as you may think?"
"Hey I didn't say that! It's just something is not right about this place"
"You are right about zhat, something is very strange." Craig notices a light for a far distance. "I think I see something over there!" Soon they all saw it. They rushed over to the light… to see a light of a lantern being held by a hook in the wall of an old mine.
"That's amazing, you really got good eyes." Henry said. Blake slowly looked into the cave, to see a deep dark tunnel and several footprints. "Well it looks like the others got a head start so we better… AAAAHHHH!" As Blake was dragged into the cave, as they screamed "BLAKE!" in fright… until Blake popped out of the cave laughing his $$ off. "You guys should see the looks on your faces… oh wait you can when this is on the internet."
"That's not funny blaaaaAAAHHH!" Jasmine shrieked with fright as a neon green stretchy tongue appears and grabbed Blake's leg. "Okay I'm in real danger now! HELP ME!" The tongue soon dragged him into the dark tunnel.
"Come on fellas, we got a teammate to save, rather we like it or not! WOWEE!" Jennifer bolted to the cave.
Felix then grabbed Henry and Jasmine and carried them in his arms. "ALRIGHT, let's do Zhis!" He quickly followed Jennifer into the cave. Craig was bit nervous to what just happen… but soon started to follow Felix into the dark tunnel.
The Boney Bats, we're inside one of the cave, with cave pillars, stalagmites, and columns. Dark holes which leads to other dark tunnels. Jax was looking all-round the caves in excitement. "These caves look incredible… unless we get an earthquake and then we'll be caved in here for rest our…" Daniel then slapped his face, to calm down Jax, "thanks."
They decided to enter a brighter tunnel… to see bright glowing crystals formations of all kinds. Perrie started to burst with joy seeing all those crystals.
"Rubies, sapphires, emeralds, and are those diamonds!? There's all kind of crystals, why am I trying to win 3 million, when I can make like 6 times as muc…"
Clara covered Perrie's mouth when she heard something from the other side of a huge crystal wall. They soon saw a huge winged shape coming from the reflections of the huge crystal. Perrie was hiding behind Tom. They soon slowly tiptoed to the other side… to see a Boney bat lying on top of a black boulder with several orange crystals beside it, munching on a sliver key.
"Hey it's the key!" Clara shouted.
"They call that poor thing, "wild and vicious?" So who's going to get that critter?" Jax asked. Tom and Perrie then push Jax and Clara out of their way, as Tom was acting tough saying. "We'll get that bat! And thanks for the backpack, Omar." Omar frantically reached his back to pull out a 7 of hearts, "How did he bloody do that!?"

Clara was sitting on a comfy chair on a private fancy balcony.
"Wow First confessional… what a beautiful view and this way better than an outhouse… so I can anything? All right than… Tom is big jerk and Perrie is just rude. Those 2 we're made for each other they're both rude, spoiled, no good drama # !%ing queens!"
She covered her mouth and blushed "Sorry about that anyway, as of now, the last thing I want is to be on the same team with any of those 2… but BOTH! I wish Jennifer or Craig we're with me; well at least Jax is here is really nice, so anyway wish me luck."
- Static-
Tom and Perrie slowly walked to the other side of the boulder, behind the bat while it was busy chewing on the key, Perrie started to reach her hand to the top of the boulder. "I got it!"
"You got the bat?" he surprisely asked her
"Oh please… I just got myself, a nice juicy crysta… wait…" she took a closer look at the crystal. Tom decided to take matter in his own hands. He opens Omar's backpack. He slowly climbed up the boulder to the bat, catches it, and shuts the backpack. Clara, Jax, Omar, and Daniel, soon went over to see
"Good job… for once, I hope the little guy is alright?" Jax asked as he hears the bat was screeching in the backpack. Tom then answered "I'm sure he's fine." Clara was becoming concerned. "Well we better check and see." Clara slowly nervously opened the bag to see a frightened boney bat. "It's okay were not gonna hurt you, okay?"
The boney bat quickly jumped out of the bag, to her shoulder. Even though she was scared it she knew it would never hurt her, as the bat slowly gives her the key. "Alright, then let's get going… and give me back my bag!" Omar said as he grabbed his backpack back.
Perrie was a closer look at the crystal, "This crystal is… is… is… FAKE!" she throws the crystal behind her head to the boulder. Daniel then started to notice… that boulder was starting to move.
"Umm… dudes? Umm… dudes?" everyone else was listen to Perrie crying over the fake crystal. "I can't possibly believe that I risked my own life, against a blood thirsty beast… for a ROCK!"
"DUDE!"
"WHAT!?" they shouted, and turned their heads to see the moving boulder starting to crack… as 4 short golden hoofs reached out and a huge ram-like head appeared with golden horns outs of the boulder and started snarling. Perrie was terrified at this creature and shrieked, "It's a… it's a… GOAT! It's a KILLER GOAT ONN GET AWAY GET AWAY FROM ME!" She hopped on Tom's arms in Fright.
- Static-Confessional-Static-
Perrie was crying in the chair in shame
"Okay, when I was just a younger was at a petting zoo, where those "things" were and well… I forgot had some corn feed in back pocket… and… and… one of them tear off my pants clean off, in front of all those people, oh the shame of it all, but… but after all, "what's done can't be undone".
-Static-
McTaggart watches the Boney Bats facing against the goat creature, and watches the Soured Squids sliding down a tunnel, from several monitors in a dark room. "Well, well isn't this exciting for a 1st challenge, will the bats make it out of the caves alive, will the squids saved their fellow squids, and what of the leeches? And who will win our 1st challenge? We'll just have wait and see… (yawn) boy I'm I tried from that walk, Steward start my bath please."
