To HATERS CAN'T SEE ME: lol thanks
To: MusicLuver78901: yeah let's do a victory dance XD
To Flutejrp: hey that's not a bad idea
To TrustYourHeart: you have a good eye for the signals friend and I'm really glad you like my OC Corey
To Jason: heh no cock block XD you're as funny as ever Jason. I like Corey too he is one tough cookie.
To XXEnvyXx: oh you've seen my Deviantart page thanks and yeah it's based off the movie. Yeah Alejandro did use his old manipulative self on that voting thing and I'll try
To ToughGuy90210: that was a funny line I admit. That Chris is as sadistic as ever right, sending them to jail like that. You think Corey and Owen had a good friendship, well I think so too
To SkorpionQueen012: good to hear your opinion about the DxG breakup being positive cuz I'm glad too. I don't think they'll hook up with the ex's tho and yeah the Cody and Noah team was cool
To Jenstar: the combination was cool right, I almost regret taking him out. He used his old tactics that his old evil self use to do. They finally broke up and I don't think they'll get their ex's back. Oh the Snooki and Trent hehe very soon
Gwentrent4eva: oh man you're a GxT fan :( I don't want to bring bad news but it's not looking good on that. He still holds a slight emotion, but that might be as far as it goes :(
Here we go guys chapter 14, Sorry for being late :(
Total Drama Around the World
Chapter 14: Battle at the Dominican Republic
" Courtney come here for a second "
" what is it dad? " the ten year old Courtney said
" your teacher tells me you won't cooperate with your science partner, why is that? "
" because dad that boy doesn't do what I say and he can't even perform the simplest task ". Her dad chuckled in response " you're quite the kid Courtney, but in life sometimes people must work together in order to accomplish things "
" huh? But I'm perfectly capable of doing things without anyone's help dad. I don't need any-.." she was cut off when her dad gently placed a hand on her head " you'll figure it out when you grow up Courtney. That one can't shoulder the world by themselves ". At this the young Courtney eyed her dad with confusion " do you really think I will? "
" of course I do, I believe in you " her dad said with a smile
Although Courtney didn't fully understand her dad's statement she was going to keep those words in her heart. Who knows, maybe someday she will understand them " thanks... dad "
Courtney quickly rose her head up from the dream she was having. She could still hear his voice. A teardrop fell down her face " dad.. " she whispered
" hey Courtney you up " Deena's voice called out from the hallway. Courtney quickly shook herself of the thoughts " yeah I'm up "
Deena entered and happily embraced her " good because it's time for more girl talk ". Courtney inwardly smiled " yeah it's that time again "
" ladies not so loud, Ronnie wants to sleep more before Chris ruins it " Ronnie said and Deena threw a pillow at him " shut it sleeping beauty "
Courtney glanced at the still sleeping forms of Cody and Pauly " boys, they can never get up early "
At the second class the mood wasn't at its best. The events from the previous day still lingered.
" Duncan c'mon cheer up man " Vinny said
" I didn't mean to lash out at her like that, but she got me all pissed off " Duncan replied
" think of this as an opportunity Duncan, you're single now " Mike said " you got no one to answer too, from now on it's all smooth sailing bro "
Angelina rolled her eyes " men " she muttered
" hey Duncan let's go out for a smoke " Jwoww suggested and Duncan nodded " yeah okay ". She knew there was more to this then Duncan let on. Once they were outside she passed him a cigarette and took one for herself " alright speak Duncan, I know there's more to this "
Duncan sighed " well I didn't mean to break up with her like that "
" but you did mean to break up, right ". Duncan paused for a moment before speaking " yeah... "
" I didn't think it'd last, it was bound to happen " Jwoww said " your relationship was built upon a lie, there's no way something like that can last "
" it felt so good in the beginning, so right " Duncan said " we were a lot alike, but I think we were too alike. It was all going good for awhile but it slowly went downhill. It was starting to feel like a routine. There was practically nothing to be figured out "
" and Courtney " Jwoww asked and she watched as Duncan's eyes slightly lighted up.
" she was like one adventure after another. She always had this pole up her butt and was very bossy, but.. I liked her. There were moments where she wasn't all that and that's what kept me into her. I felt proud that I was the one to get her to chill out from time to time. I felt like I had finally done something worth being called an accomplishment "
Now Jwoww noticed him downcast his gaze as he continued " and then came Gwen, with her I realized I could have fun without doing any work "
" so you got lazy and decided to settle for less "
" yeah, you can put it like that " Duncan replied with slight sadness " I took the easy way out again, like I've always done my entire life, but this time it hurts Jenni ". He was now balling his fists, the cigarette now crushed " it.. really hurts.. like a lot "
" I'm sorry about your mistake Duncan, I'm sorry about all your mistakes, but.. " she paused to dump the cigarette " you should have known better "
Duncan didn't respond to her until after a few seconds " I know "
... ... ... ... ... ... ... ... ... ... ... ... ... ...
" cowabunga! " Corey shouted and he dove inside the pool " man this feels good "
" woohoo! " Snooki said and she joined Corey inside the pool " God I love first class "
" guys, Gwen hasn't come out " Trent said
" well then go in and get her out, if you're so worried about her " Heather said as she took another sip of her beverage
" that's kinda harsh Heather " Sammi spoke
" hey I'm just saying, I mean this is her karma " Heather replied and Snooki nodded " she did have it coming "
" yeah, but still... " Trent said
" Trent she dumped you and you're feeling sorry for her, sheesh have some backbone " Heather said
" it's just not like me to be as uncaring as you " Trent snapped. Heather glared at him " it's the truth and you know it, besides it's not like me and her are friends, so why should I care "
" maybe next time she'll think twice before butting into someone's relationship " Snooki said
" I could give her a talk, but it'd probably be weird and awkward seeing as how we're not really cool " Sammi stated " so it's pointless for me to go "
" this ain't my business dog " Corey added
Trent sighed " this team is so dysfunctional " he muttered in defeat
Confessional
Trent: I know what Gwen did on World Tour was unforgivable and all, but... maybe she regrets it. I shouldn't help her though, because she needs to learn a lesson.. does that sound mean. Oh what's a guy to do? *starts counting to nine*
End of Confessional
" okay competitors we've landed "
" that's our cue people " Corey said as he picked himself off the water " hey Sammi, you like what you see " Corey joked and he showed off his muscles. Sammi pushed him forward " shut up "
The crewmates all stepped out of the boat and onto their newest destination.
" where are we now? " Jwoww said
" we're in the beautiful Dominican Republic " Chris responded " our next challenge site "
" lets get the show on the road then " Ronnie said, raising a fist in the air
" I like your enthusiasm there Ronnie " Chris said and he turned towards Gwen " if only everyone was as enthusiastic as you. Gotta a little tension "
" you don't cut any slack do you Chris " Deena said
" no I don't Deena " Chris replied " now there's our ride to the challenge "
" oh great Chef is driving " Vinny grumbled " can't I drive or something "
" nope, I don't have any insurance on you, now in you go crewmates "
Snooki signaled Trent and patted the empty seat next to her " have a seat with me Trent ". Cody ran up and sat next to her " don't mind if I do ". Snooki pushed him out of the seat " not you dork, Trent "
Trent happily sat down " awesome "
Gwen watched as Trent sat down with Snooki and sighed sadly. A voice was heard on her right.
" alright bring on that challenge " Courtney said happily and Deena placed her arm around her " oh yeah the girlfriends are ready for anything "
Gwen noticed how Courtney wore a huge grin as she sat with the red head next to her. It use to be her that would sit and talk nonsense with Courtney. Was this really the same Courtney? She was always so bossy and demanding, but now she didn't seem to have a care in the world.
" Courtney I snuck my Nintendo 3DS you wanna play it? " Cody asked with a smile and Courtney happily returned it " yeah totally, it'll kill time "
" aww yo Court I got next " Ronnie called out
Nobody wanted to hang around her back in World Tour, but now her whole team seemed to be so fond of her. Gwen hadn't even bonded with any of her teammates and Trent was about Snooki now. It even surprised her that even Cody had completely forgotten all about her. He was now attached to Courtney as well, but why? Was this really karma?
Gwen angrily clenched her fist. This wasn't how things were suppose to play out. She wasn't suppose to be the hated one, or suppose to lose Cody's attention, or be dumped. These were all things that shouldn't have happened. What in the world made Courtney so special?
The bus made another horrendous stop, but this time nobody was sent flying.
" hah I put my seatbelt this time " Duncan boasted
" word, me too. Safety first " Mike added
" damn it, I like it when they fly " Chef mumbled
" okay out we go crewmates " Chris ordered
Courtney passed the console back to Cody " thanks Cody, I had fun playing. It gets really boring in this dumb bus ". Cody placed the 3DS away " I know what you mean, and I can lend it to you whenever you want. Since Noah's gone I need a new player "
" that sounds fine by me " Courtney replied and the two walked out of the bus.
" welcome to Santo Domingo, capital city and largest city in the Dominican Republic " Chris said
" wow " Courtney said as she gazed at the area
Confessional
Courtney: I know I'm here to prove myself and get my redemption, but that doesn't mean I can't enjoy the free cruise around the world
End of Confessional
" we are currently in 'El Malecon', the waterfront of Santo Domingo, and here's our challenge area "
" bring it " Vinny said
" that huge body of water you see there " Chris said and he pointed to the water " I've hidden a valuable treasure in there, I'm not telling you what it is though. You are all going scuba-diving until you find it and bring it back up here "
" wait you're not going to tell us what it is? " Heather said " so what the hell are we looking for? "
" valuable treasure, geez what more information do you need mujer " Alejandro said. Heather jabbed a finger to his chest " nobody asked you, so shut up "
" oh señorita you hurt my feelings " Alejandro replied with fake hurt as he clutched his heart. Heather crossed her arms and turned away " hmph stupid "
" now here is your scuba gear. Make sure to get a communicator, they're made for water " Chris said as Chef opened a crate " come and get it maggots "
" ooh I call the blue scuba mask " Deena called out
" I got dibs on the green one " Corey said
Courtney placed her goggles around her neck and reached out for the black scuba mask. Just as she reached out for it another hand had also reached for it, and the two hands collided with one another. She followed the hand and inwardly groaned as she saw the owner.
" uh you wanted this " Duncan said holding up the black scuba mask " you could take it if you want? "
" yo Court check out this red one " Pauly called as he held up two red scuba masks " I got one for ya, like that we both rock it out "
Duncan watched Courtney smile and walk up to Pauly " that one looks way better then the one I was going to pick, thanks Pauly ". He was totally ignored.
" you're welcome honey " Pauly responded and Courtney glared at him, but held no real malice in her eyes " oh will you quit calling me that Pauly "
Something pulled at Duncan's heart string at watching that display.
" princess "
" I wish you'd stop calling me that "
Wasn't annoying her with nicknames his thing or it was his thing, but it felt wrong seeing someone else do it. He was brought out of his thoughts when Chris spoke up again " ready people, good now lets start the 'Take a Scuba Dive' challenge "
" alright ya sissies in ya go " Chef ordered and the crewmates all dove inside the water.
Being inside the water proved to be a lot more fun then it seemed. Some of the crewmates were more enjoying the water then doing the actual challenge.
" hey look I'm a sea monster " Izzy called out as she swam behind Vinny " argh I'm gonna eat you "
" nah Izzy we're sharks remember " Vinny replied with a laugh
" this is totally our turf " Mike added
" check out the fishies " Cody said as a bunch of small fishes swam passed him
" wow they're so cute " Deena said
" focus people " Ronnie scolded " we gotta find this 'valuable treasure' Chris speaks off "
" he's right " Courtney said " but what can it be? "
" check it out " Corey said to his teammates and he pointed to a glowing light deep at the bottom " that could be the treasure "
Mike pushed past him " thanks for the tip Corey "
" thanks indeed hehe, smell ya later " Duncan said
" hey that's our treasure, find your own! " Heather barked. Corey quickly swam towards the glowing light source " hurry, we can't let them beat us "
" he's so right " Sammi said and she followed Corey's direction " we can't let loser ass Mike beat us "
Cody signaled for his team " c'mon guys move it "
" yeah we won't lose either " Pauly said
As Heather was swimming down another object caught her eye " huh, what's that? ". She swam down and picked up the object " hmm... "
Aa she tried to swim up she noticed her leg had been entangled by underwater seaweed " oh the irony of it all, guys! Little help here! " but when she went for the object she had ventured on her own
The other crewmates had all swam out of the water and each showed their object to Chris.
" hey it's gotta be this " Corey said and he held up a shiny pearl " tell us we won Chris "
" no way this is the treasure " Mike interjected and he held up a gold coin " we won right? "
" our treasure is better " Courtney snapped and she held up a ruby diamond " right Chris? "
Chris facepalmed " are you serious people, I said treasure not junk. Seeing as how you're all outta the water none of you win "
" wait, where's Heather? " Sammi said as she searched for her teammate " I don't see her "
" shit! She's still in the water " Corey said. He signaled Trent " T-dogg " and with that he dove in
" right behind you " Trent said and he jumped in
They both began searching frantically for her. The two came upon Heather's figure that was stuck on a mass of seaweed.
" Corey! Trent! " Heather said with glee
Corey quickly pulled out his pocket knife and freed her from the seaweed " we got ya Heather ". The two helped her to get back onto land.
" my heroes " Heather cried happily and she hugged both boys, but pushed them back into the water when she realized what she did " took you losers long enough "
" you're welcome " Corey said sarcastically
" yeah not cool " Trent added
Against his better judgement Alejandro sighed in relief when he saw Heather was alright.
" Heather are you okay? " Sammi asked with worry in her voice " what were you thinking going off alone like that? "
" I was getting the treasure " Heather replied with a smirk " I think this belongs to you Chris " and Heather tossed the object to Chris
" my gel " Chris cooed " I thought I'd never get you "
Courtney animatedly dropped to the floor " you got to be kidding, that was the treasure! "
" it sure was, it's waterproof too " Chris stated
" no way! Man I gotta get a batch of that " Pauly said being the only one amused
" well at least we get to keep these treasures " Mike said and Chris snickered " nope, any items found while on Total Drama is property of Total Drama "
" aww! " they all cried
" now, time for our next challenge kids " Chris declared " it's called the 'Chris Triathlon Trial' "
" a triathlon " Izzy repeated " cool "
" no Izzy, not cool " Angelina scolded, lightly bunking Izzy on her head " those require running "
" as well as cycling and more swimming " Courtney said " those are fun to watch on Tv, but I don't know if it's fun to actually do "
" what, you expect me to do all that! No way " Snooki complained
" depends on whether you decide on doing it " Chris explained " this will require three volunteers. One for the swimming, one for the cycling, and last but not least one for the running. You will each be set up in different checkpoints where you'll be waiting for your teammate to get there. The first part will be the swimming part, which will take place here. The first team to make it back to the boat wins first class. Participants will get a baton especially colored to meet your team's name "
Chris held up three batons " red for the Shell Bullets, green for the Monster Sharks and blue for the Get Backers. It will be the job of the non participants to try and stop the enemy in their tracks. Only the non players can attack the players, oh and they're not mountain bikes, they're surrey bikes. Now start pickings out your players, so we can start this "
" what, surrey bikes? Oh whatever it's useless to argue " Snooki said
" I call the running part " Corey called
" you seem awfully confident with yourself " Heather said. Corey crossed his arms " Heather my sweet friend, I've been pushed to the point of puking by my old football coach. He made us jog for hours on that track field, stamina is all me baby "
" if Corey is confident then I trust him " Trent exclaimed with honesty " I'm picking the swimming part then "
" ... "
" c'mon ladies, one of ya has to do the cycling " Corey snapped, now getting irritated. He couldn't believe how lazy his team was. He could understand it if Gwen didn't feel up for it, but not the others.
" ugh, fine I'll do it " Heather groaned, throwing her hands up
" alright Heather that's the spirit " Trent said
Snooki placed her hand on her shoulder " I'll make sure none make it pass me "
" ight, lets make it happen "
From the Monster Sharks Duncan was already declaring what he wanted " I pick the running "
" I wanna do the swimming " Izzy said
" it's all yours Izzy " Angelina said, relieved that she wasn't doing the horrendous task
" so who's doing the cycling? " Vinny said
" that's more your department " Mike said and he pushed Vinny forward " you do it "
" whatever, I'm game " Vinny replied
" that's my Vinny " Jwoww exclaimed
Across from them was Team Red Shell Bullets who were also in the midst of picking out participants.
" I wanna do the running " Pauly exclaimed
" well then, I call the cycling " Alejandro said
" go for it Alejandro " Deena cheered
" thank you Deena, you certainly give me inspiration and I really appreciate it " Alejandro replied
" if it's alright with you guys, I want to do the swimming part " Courtney suggested
" are you sure Courtney, cuz I'm okay with doing it if you don't wanna exhaust yourself " Ronnie said
" thanks Ronnie you're sweet, but I'm sure " Courtney said reassuringly
" okay, ready people " Chris hollered " good, now places everyone "
... ... ... ... ... ... ... ... ... ... ... ... ... ...
" alright we are about to have the first part of the 'Chris Triathlon Trial' "
" no hard feelings if I leave you in the dust, okay ladies I don't wanna see tears " Trent joked
" hah in your dreams Trent " Courtney replied and she put on her goggles " I'm winning this "
" that's if I don't make you eat my bubbles " Izzy said
" aren't you forgetting something " Chris said, holding the batons. The three clumsily apologized to Chris and took their team batons. Chris pointed a BB gun into the air " now we can start, so on your marks, get set.. Go! " and he fired in the sky.
At that cue the swimmers all jumped into the water
Confessionals
Courtney: I was an old C.I.T, so this swimming junk is a peace of cake
Izzy: I'm a shark rar, rar I'll eat you and spit out your bones
End of Confessionals
The race so far had Courtney in the lead " yes, I'm really winning "
" don't get to excited Courtney " Trent said and he began catching up " I'm not about to lose "
" where the heck is Izzy? " Courtney said as she noticed the crazy orange head was missing
" poor girl, couldn't keep up with me " Trent boasted
Suddenly Izzy jumped up from under the water and waved at her opponents " this is the part where you guys eat my bubbles ". She sank back under the water and jumped back up.
" how do you swim dolphin? Courtney asked referring to Izzy's weird swimming method
" they taught me just now " Izzy responded " I'd love to stay and chat, but the Izzy has to go " and Izzy began getting farther and farther ahead
" that's awesome " Trent exclaimed
" darn you Izzy! " Courtney shouted " wait up "
" sorry - but - I - can't " Izzy said in between dives
Trent used that moment to pass Courtney " catch you later Courtney "
Courtney quickly picked up the pace " no you don't ". She finally made it to land after a long swim " I have to get this baton to Alejandro ". As she was walking her leg touched a wire that triggered a net to pull her to a tree " what the "
" gotcha " Angelina boasted proudly as she came out from behind the tree " that'll oughta keep you from following Izzy
" nice work Angelina " Jwoww said " now lets get back to the others "
" no wait up, you can't leave me up here " Courtney snapped and she bagan trying to wiggle out of the net " damn it all "
Izzy
" Izzy must pick up the pace, I gotta get to Vinny and fast " Izzy chanted as she swung from vine to vine. She landed on the floor to catch her breath. All of a sudden she toppled to the ground as two bodies collided with her " ooomph "
" we got you crazy Izzy " Sammi said, holding her down
" youre going nowhere " Snooki said, also holding her down " tough luck Izzy "
" wow ya caught me " Izzy replied with more admiration then anger " Izzy is astounded "
Confessional
Sammi: Izzy is astounded and not mad hmm.. I don't get her sometimes, well okay all the time. Still you can't help but like her
End of Confessional
" we can't let her escape, we must detain her so Trent can win " Snooki said
" hey I know that, but staying above Izzy must be as uncomfortable for her as it is for us " Sammi replied
" hey at least we're on her back, that's a lot better then being on her front right? " Snooki added, trying to ease her friend's mood
" irregardless it's weird and uncomfortable "
" would you rather be on Ronnie " Snooki joked making Sammi blush " oh shut up, I bet you'd rather be on Trent right "
" yeah I would " Snooki bluntly said " hey, I'm hungry Sammi "
" what's with the random comment, are you that bored? " Sammi asked while checking her perfectly manicured nails
" no I mean I'm seriously hungry " Snooki said as she placed a hand on her stomach
" well I've got these " Sammi said and she took out two chocolate bars " Corey gave me these before we separated, in case we got hungry "
" I guess he's not mad at you anymore ". Sammi turned to her friend and smiled " no he's not, it was a little after the previous challenge that we patched things up "
As Sammi was making her way to first class she noticed Corey holding a small box. The two awkwardly walked in the same hallway in silence. It wasn't until they got to the first class section that she spoke " look Corey I-.. "
" don't " Corey interjected " it's cool Sammi, I know it's part of the game to kick someone out. I acted like a kid to you and the others when I knew what I was getting into, so I guess what I'm tryna say here is that... I'm sorry " and he opened his arms up " friends "
Sammi smiled and took his initiative. She gave the boy a small hug " friends, so what's in the box? ". Corey gave a laugh " it was Owen's box and he left if for me, here I'll give you some "
" turns out Owen left it for him "
" guys, you mind if I have one " Izzy asked
Snooki gasped " holy crap I totally forgot about you Izzy and Sam how much more do ya have? "
" that was the last one, but I can give you a piece if mine " Sammi said and she broke a piece of her chocolate bar and held it above Izzy " here "
" my hands are a little tied up, can't you just like feed it to me " Izzy whined. Sammi sweatdropped and sighed " er.. fine ". She placed the candy closer to Izzy and in an instant Izzy devoured it.
" that was so weird " Sammi thought
" hey she eats as much as Owen " Snooki said with a laugh " speaking of Owen, hey Izzy how do you feel about him? "
" ooohh is this a test " Izzy said " okay, okay I didn't study, but I'll try my best "
Sammi followed Snooki's lead " I know how Owen felt about you Izzy, you want me to tell you? "
" you mean you guys are just giving me the answers, kind of a lame test. I can't just cheat, Izzy has a strong reputation on the line " Izzy stated making the two girls sigh. Just then Izzy remembered she was on a challenge and mentally berated herself. An idea popped into her at the last minute " oh no is that Ronnie making out with Jenni? "
Sammi bolted up " where? ". Izzy took the opportunity to knock off the smaller Snooki off of her back " hah! Gotcha " and she dashed away
" damn it! We'll never catch up with her " Snooki groaned " nice going Sammi it's all your fault, but seeing as how you gave me candy it's cool "
Trent
Trent was running towards the checkpoint to find his team " gotta hurry, gotta hurry "
His foot connected with a rope and it triggered a trap. The next thing he knew he was hanging upside down from a tree by his leg " oh no! "
" wow that worked " Deena cheered " I'm the best, haha I got you Trent "
" nice one Deena " Trent murmured " now how's about you set me free and we talk about this "
" in your dreams Trent, you're going to stay there and my team is going to win "
" if you let me go I'll... " Trent trailed off thinking of what to offer her " I'll write a song for you "
" wow really, that's so sweet Trent " Deena exclaimed but snapped herself out of it " I can't, even though I'd like it if a song were for me "
Trent silently cursed " okay hows about a-.. "
" nope I won't hear any offers " Deena cut in " I'm going to ditch you and return to my team, so see you around Trent " and soon she was gone
Trent waited until she was gone before he pulled out Corey's knife " hehe good thing I asked Corey for his knife before we started the challenge ". With a struggle he lifted his body upwards and took a hold on his leg. He preceded on cutting the rope " c'mon, c'mon " the rope gave away and his back landed roughly on the ground.
" ahh crap that hurt " Trent winced in pain. As he was looking up he saw a blur of green jumping from tree to tree " Izzy! ". Trent quickly rose up only to fall back down " c'mon body don't quit "
" I gotta get to Heather on the double " Trent murmured and he brought himself up " gotta go "
Courtney
Courtney was trying to get out of the net again, but her attempts were all in vain.
" it's useless, I can't get out of this net "
She was out of ideas and if they loss she might be out of the game " was this as far as I could get? Was this all I could do? ". Her head sunk down in failure. After leaving her home with determination about how much she was going to show her changed self, this happens.
Wait was she really giving up, she couldn't get out of the game. There's no way she was going to quit, not after she promised Mark she'd come home a winner.
Courtney continued wiggling out and she heard something approaching. The noises turned out to be Izzy jumping across the trees. Without knowing she jumped passed Courtney's tree bark and the added weight caused the tree bark to snap. This caused Courtney to fall to the ground, but Izzy had safely jumped to the other side.
" wow talk about luck " Courtney murmured before getting up. She dashed forward " I can't let Izzy beat me. I gotta move it "
Alejandro, Heather, and Vinny
" alright Alejandro show me what you got " Vinny said and he slapped down a set of cards " pair of 3's "
Alejandro had borrowed Pauly's set of cards
and he offered to use them to kill time. Heather being Heather denied, but Vinny happily agreed.
" full house " Alejandro said holding up his cards
" aww again c'mon, you rigged it man " Vinny complained throwing his hands up " this sucks "
" Heather what's the matter too scared to play " Alejandro joked. Heather snorted " oh spare me. I just don't want to waste time playing cards "
" hey it's not like anyone's here yet, so what harm can it do " Vinny added and he placed his cards down for another go " ight, three of a kind "
" four of a kind " Alejandro said triumphantly. Vinny groaned and slumped his shoulders " it can't be "
" Vinny! " Izzy called out as she reached him. Vinny gave her a high five " that's my Izzy, lets bounce ". The two got on the bike " see ya guys and I'll get you later Alejandro " and he rode away
" you gotta be kidding me! " Heather yelled " now I'm stuck with you ". Alejandro scoffed " that's my line, I don't want to be anywhere near you ". The two then sat down in silence.
" hey Alejandro! I made it ". Alejandro turned to the voice and smiled " señorita what took you? "
" sorry, got caught up " Courtney said " but nothing can stop me ". She then noticed it was only them there " crap, Izzy beat me "
Alejandro took her wrist and led her to the bike. He hopped on " we can't waste time here "
" full speed ahead then " Courtney said and they rode away. Heather who had been glaring at the sight from start to finished sighed " come on "
" Heather, I'm here! " Trent shouted
" what took you! We're in last place " Heather retorted. Trent passed her the baton " well let's move it then "
" these stupid bikes suck " Heather grumbled as she struggled to find balance on the bumpy ground. Trent who was next her agreed " I know, but at least you're driving, I can use the break "
Duncan, Corey, and Pauly
" tic tac toe, I win " Pauly chanted as he drew an X on the dirt and connected it with a line " that's now 5 to 2 on the score cards "
" that ain't right dog, it's cuz you picked X, the X always wins " Corey complained. Pauly and Corey had been playing tic tac toe with sticks.
" hah, bro you said that when I was the O and you were the X " Pauly joked
" so tell me Pauly, how are things going with you and Courtney? " Corey asked and at this Duncan raised his head up.
" oh you mean my honey, it's going good. We're always having a good time together man and she's always cooking for me when we win. It taste way better then the food Chris gives us "
" man we sound like two school girls gossiping " Corey joked and Pauly laughed " I know right "
" you sound whipped man " Corey said
" heh, maybe I am " Pauly said in a low tone
They didn't know that each word was stabbing Duncan in his chest. Everything Courtney did for Pauly she use to do for him. He didn't like seeing her with him. It then hit him, was this how she had felt? Pauly was stealing her away, no he's over her already right? This was really pissing him off.
" she'll probably drive you insane or dump you " Duncan spat out trying to sound nonchalant. This made Pauly and Corey turn towards Duncan.
" what did you say " Pauly said completely pissed
" you heard me, take it from someone who's already tried dating her, it's going nowhere "
Pauly roughly grabbed him from his collar " look here, just cos your ass isn't able to handle girls doesn't me I'm not capable of ". Corey grabbed Pauly and pulled him back " take it easy dog "
" you really are a dumbass " Pauly said " for picking that grenade over Courtney, for the way you hurt her feelings, and for even thinking that I'd listen to you and ditch Courtney ". Corey smirked " well said "
" you wanna go bastard " Duncan barked
" you know I've been wanting to beat the shit out of you for a while now " Pauly retorted
" the feeling's mutual " Duncan spat
" yo Duncan! " Vinny called out as he approached them " here baton, run, tired " he said out of breath
" he means take the baton and go Duncan " Izzy said, translating for her friend " he's just exhausted from the traps we went through "
" smell ya later " Duncan said, taking the baton from Vinny. He began sprinting away. Moments later two vehicles were seen approaching.
" Heather! T-dogg! " Corey shouted happily
" Courtney! Alejandro! " Pauly chimed in
Alejandro who was behind grabbed his baton and flung it " amigo catch! ". Pauly jumped up and caught it. He immediately began sprinting " see ya Corey "
Heather glared at Alejandro and turned to Corey, she raised her baton up " Corey go long! "
" aww yeah football style " Corey said and he ran forward " I'm open, I'm open ". Heather tossed the baton with all her strength to Corey, who managed to catch it " time for a touchdown "
... ... ... ... ... ... ... ... ... ... ... ... ... ...
Duncan was running with a grin " heh I'm so going to win this one ". As he was running the floor under him gave away and he fell into a hole " what the "
" haha, I caught you " Ronnie said with shovel leaning on his shoulder " time to get the others "
" damn it! " Duncan said trying to get out, but the walls around him were covered in water making it slippery. He fell back down " fuck! I can't lose "
" yo D I'm here to help " a voice rang
" Mike! Man am I glad to see you " Duncan cried
Pauly noticed Mike trying to help Duncan and he crept up behind him. He made sure he wasn't heard and pushed Mike into the hole " whoops "
" you son of a, I'm going to kill you " Mike yelled
" no! Get your ass back here! " Duncan shouted
Pauly continued running whilst laughing his head off. He didn't notice that he had stopped running " huh ". His feet were now encased in glue " no way! "
" got ya " Gwen cheered
" not so fast " Cody called and he leaped onto the scene " I'm gonna get you out Pauly ". Pauly smiled in relief " Cody thank God, help me out buddy "
Gwen smirked " wait Cody, if you leave Pauly stuck I'll really appreciate it ". As much as she disliked it she knew Cody had a crush on her
" like hell, I'm not leaving my friend stuck to a glop of glue like that " Cody retorted and he began peeling the glue off with a tree bark " this will make Courtney smile, I just know it ". Gwen was left flabbergasted, but quickly fixed her composure " wait, since when do you care about Courtney "
" since when do you care about what I care about " Cody responded and he freed Pauly " I did it ". Pauly pulled the shorter boy in for a nuggie " nice job Cody, you're a champ. Let's book it ". The two ran and left Gwen there still in shock
Confessional
Gwen: are you saying Cody's over me too, ugh what's so special about Courtney
End of Confessional
Corey had caught up to Gwen " Gwen quit standing still and get your head in the game. Let's go ". Gwen shook herself of her thoughts and followed Corey. She can't get distracted " they can't be to far away "
" good, you managed to buy me time " Corey said
Due to it being a straight path they could see Pauly in the distance. Gwen squinted her eyes to get a better look " we're close Corey ". The boy gave her a smile in response " we can still win this ". As the two were getting closer Gwen noticed she was getting tired.
" Corey I can't keep up, it's to much "
" Gwen don't push yourself, you've done enough already. Take a breather, I'll win this "
Gwen happily obliged and took a rest, while Corey dashed forward as quickly as he could. He slowly caught up with Pauly " I won't let you win "
" damn it you caught up " Pauly said, now he regretted telling Cody to take a break. The Chris boat began coming into view and this caused the two to speed up. Pauly still had a slight lead and he could see Chris at the end " I'm winning ". He extended his out to touch the boat. Just as he was about to touch the boat his legs collapsed and he fell to the ground.
" what happened " he thought. He couldn't move them anymore " no c'mon ". Chris's voice was then heard " and Team Get Backers win first class ". Pauly turned to see Corey was touching the boat " how? "
" you weren't use to running that much and you pushed yourself to the point of exhaustion " Corey clarified " but me I'm use to this, I told you my coach made us run like a hundred laps so I'm use it "
" oh... damn " Pauly muttered in disappointment. Corey leant down and helped him up " you were tough man, I almost lost " he said lifting Pauly's mood up " thanks man "
Everyone eventually made it to the ship. Heather ran up " so who won? Who won? "
" Corey won first class and Pauly won second class, but Duncan you my friend won third class "
" you did it Corey! " Heather exclaimed and she gave him a victory hug. Alejandro frowned at the sight.
Snooki and Sammi embraced Corey too and he happily returned it " I'm the greatest "
Courtney placed her hand on Pauly's shoulder " hey don't beat yourself up Pauly, you were amazing. You may not have won first, but you didn't get last either. Next time we'll win trust me ". Pauly felt his heart warming up at her speech " Courtney you... " and he embraced her " you made me feel all better now "
She blushed lightly but hugged him back " good, I'm glad ". Her team smiled all knowing that Pauly was feeling better. This display just made Duncan even more angrier.
" everyone back to the boat, and losers to the deck " Chris demanded and the teams all boarded back onto the dreaded boat. The third class team dragged their feet towards the deck.
" so losers, how's it feel to be losers " Chris says
" bite me Chris " Angelina snapped " now get on with it you jerk "
" sheesh, touchy " Chris murmured " you'll be happy to know that this was a reward challenge "
" Alright! " they all chanted
" well it looks like that concludes this episode of Total Drama Around the World. Seems like Duncan is having some troubles with Pauly hehe can't wait to see that. Corey managed to win this for his team. Things will get more interesting now, keep watching for more Total Drama Around the World! "
Meanwhile... ...
Chef was currently examining the steering wheel intently " hmm... yup we're outta gas "
