Episode 14: Tastes Like Terrible
Chris stood on the dock, walking on his way into the island. "Last time, on Total Drama Karon Island, we had the teams disbanded. Now those nice vibes are turned to solid mush! (Clip of the merge announcement). The challenge was a battle to the end in eight rounds, where the winner saved themselves. (Clip of Kayla winning the first round.) Ethan took up an interesting strategy and took Luna down to the bottom three, as Jonathan asked, (Clip of Ethan losing on purpose) but he betrayed Jonathan and saved Luna and himself! (Clip of Luna winning her Round). In the end, Helio got the boot, and Jonathan exposed Ethan for all the scheming he's done, and completely dropped any blame from himself. (Clip of Helio's elimination and the TV showing the clips of Ethan's actions) How will Ethan squeeze out of this? Can he at all? Is Jonathan as safe as he thinks? Find out today, on Total! Drama! Karon Island!"
Opening Sequence
Girls' Cabin
"Good morning, new ally," Kayla said to Angie.
"Why am I teaming with you?" Angie asked, still tired.
Kayla shrugged. "Your call, of course. I'm just concerned that Ethan could take out any of us next."
"She has a point," Luna added.
"So here's the deal," Kayla said. "We all team up and get rid of Ethan. Sound good?"
"I'm in," Kara said.
"Fine," Angie said.
Kayla: This is great. Even if I don't win immunity, I know I'll be safe, at least until Ethan and Norm are off this island.
Cave, Karon Island
"Why are we meeting in here?" Norm asked.
"Because," Ethan said. "This is a super private spot. Also I found it and it looks cool."
Norm rolled his eyes. "Okay, fine. What do we do?"
Ethan sighed. "I didn't expect Jonathan to be that prepared. In the future, we slowly ally people with us until Jonathan is gone. For today, though, we just need to win. Too dangerous to try anything."
"Got it," Norm confirmed.
"Just, stay low today," Ethan added. "The less noticeable we are, less chance one of us goes.
"Excellent," Norm said. They walked out of the cave to hear an announcement.
"Hello final eight!" Chris called from the speakers. "I hope you're all hungry for victory, because you're gonna need to be!" He laughed.
Norm sighed. "Eating challenge. Ethan, you better win this, because I'm not going to." He started walking, then slipped. "What the-" he saw he had slipped on a patch of ice. "Huh. This would explain the recent temperature drop."
Another announcement came over the speakers. "Don't ask questions, but it's starting to snow. If you aren't at the dining bunker yet, you might wanna consider going there NOW!"
Dining Bunker
The final eight had gathered in the bunker. Kara started looking around immediately.
Kara: I need to find that source. This impromptu blizzard has to be Chris's doing! Has anyone else remembered it's still summer?
"Excuse me," Kara asked. "I was wondering why you didn't pick a more believable natural disaster, like a landslide."
Chris narrowed his eyes. "If I could pick the natural disasters, I would take your advice. Except they're natural!" He began to explain the challenge. "Today you'll have a classic eating contest! This is a total drama classic, and you all get to suffer in it." He put out the first dish. Ethan gasped in delight.
Ethan: Chocolate milk? I live for that stuff! Hello, immunity.
Dish 1
"Chocolate milk?" Angie asked. "That's all you got?"
Luna looked worried. "What is the catch?"
Chris smiled. "Hoping someone would say that. This stuff expired before those Juggy Chunks from Pahkitew did." Kayla poked at hers. "Yeah, this might be worse than Juggy Chunks. Also, why did you say chocolate? This is normal white milk."
Jonathan: Excuse me?
"Now," Chris continued. "First person to finish each dish earns a point for themselves. There will be five dishes in total. The person with the most points at the end of the challenge has immunity." He laughed at the expired dairy before them. "Go!"
Kayla poked at her dish again. "I think someone else can just take the point."
Ethan shrugged, and started drinking the milk. "Eugh!" he complained.
Jonathan narrowed his eyes at Ethan. "No way he gets immunity," he muttered, then started drinking as well.
Kayla scoffed. "Enjoy puking that up later," she smirked. "What do you think, Kara? Kara?"
"Uh, Chris," Luna said. "You appear to be missing a competitor."
Chris looked at the empty seat. "Well, she misses this one, so she's out of the challenge. No immunity, and if we find her, she's still participating."
Ethan and Jonathan continued to scarf down their expired food. Everyone else had stopped, and were just gagging while the two battled it out. In the end, Ethan put down his glass. "Yes!" He called out. Jonathan appeared woozy, and just fell over. Ethan quickly followed suit.
Dish 2
Chris passed it out to the seven competitors. "Here we go for round 2!"
Angie picked hers up. "Is there metal in here?"
"Yes, there is," Chris said. "This is plane wreckage surprise. We got it from the Jumbo Jet. Everyone has something different."
"Looks spectacular!" Jonathan called out. Everyone looked to see that he had gotten the cucumbers from the facials in first class. "Hey, at least I got real food," he said.
Ethan looked at his plate. It was actually just plane exterior. He picked it up and took a bite. "Oh, no," he said. "I'm not eating straight metal."
Jonathan laughed at them all. "None of you are going to be able to win immunity by being quitters." He took another bite. "This is in the bag for us, huh Paul?"
"You bet," Paul said nervously.
Paul: Not gonna lie, I'm not entirely sure Jonathan was telling the whole truth, and he definitely skewed evidence in his favor. But what else is he missing?
Jonathan put his bowl down, empty. "Jonathan wins round 2!" Chris says. "Three dishes left. Where's the hard work, and where's Kara?"
Control Room, Karon Mines
Kara eventually reached the control room they found in the mine challenge. She opened the wall up, and looked at the wires. "Gotta shut this down," she said. She looked around at the wires, and using her eyes, followed them. "That's where I gotta go," she concluded. She opened up the door and followed the wires.
Dish 3
CURRENT STANDINGS: Ethan 1, Jonathan 1
"Is this a hot dog?" Paul asked, at the seemingly normal meat on a bun in front of the seven.
"Sort of," Chris said. "Here's a little clip that will help you identify your meat."
He pulls up a TV, to see Chef in the confessional. It appears to be from season one. "I slave over a hot stove, cookin' dolphin. No appreciation!"
Chris laughed. "That solve your riddle, Paul?"
Paul rolled his eyes. "Sure does."
Chris blew a whistle. "Now eat!"
Ethan and Jonathan began scarfing down the food again. This time, everyone was participating. Eventually, Ethan put his down. "Chris, is there water?"
Chris sighed. "Chef!"
Chef brought out seven cups of water. "One for each of ya's. And this is only 'cause my cookin's bein' appreciated this time."
Ethan: I saw this crazy thing once, where a guy ate 20 hot dogs in under a minute by just swallowing 'em whole. Figured it's worth a try.
Ethan dipped his dolphin dog in water, and began eating it faster. "Hey, he can't do that!" Jonathan complained in between bites.
"Nothing's stopping you from doing it too," Chris said, bored.
Jonathan began to follow suit and started dipping his dolphin dog in. "Oh, I wouldn't bother," Ethan said with a mouth full. He swallowed. "Because I'm done."
Chris checked. "Ethan's got himself another point! One more and he has guaranteed immunity.
Jonathan scowled at the Anti-Villain. "You know, if you really want this, you can prove it, ok?"
Ethan looked back at him. "How do you plan on doing that?"
Jonathan just chuckled. "You'll see."
Karon Mines
Kara appeared from a whole in the ground, now covered in dirt. "I so need a shower after this," she muttered. She looked around to see what appeared to be a separate control room. She found a full map of the mine in that room. She examined it. "So the other one's a dud," she said. "Huh."
Kara looked at the control panel. They all seemed to be attached to a dome. She pulled a switch. "First, to take out that blizzard." Then, she looked around. She pulled out a few wires and buried them in the ground. "That should stop it until the end of the season." She checked the map again. "Time to get back to the challenge," she said, finding an elevator.
The elevator opened up in a cave. She walked out, figured out her location, and then went to the dining bunker. The odd weather had stopped.
Dish 4
"I hope you guys are hungry for this one," Chris says. "Because you guys are going to have to find these dishes." He rolled up a TV and put up a picture of a log. "Your fourth dish is whatever you pull out of a log. Chef will quickly prepare it, and you will then eat it. Your logs are all lined up out there."
Everyone went outside and pulled out something from the log they chose. "Oh my," Angie said. "Is this a squirrel?"
"Sure is," Chris confirms. "You should be glad you found that first. Chef takes his time on those."
Norm reached in next. He pulled out a giant cricket. "Oh, nasty," Chris says to him.
Jonathan pulls out a spider. "Jonathan gets the spider. I don't remember if that one's poisonous or not."
Jonathan: Poison? I just got a nice idea. (he laughs darkly) So long, Ethan.
Ethan pulls out a cricket similar to Norm's. Kayla goes next. She grabs an apple. "Do you remember what Amy ate last season? Yeah, it's one of those." Kayla lifted the apple from her hand, and it was starting to swell up already.
Luna gets a piece of bread. "Looks like Luna gets lucky," Chris says.
Paul looks at the last two logs. "Which one should I grab?" he asks. Just then, Kara swooped in and took a cockroach.
"Uh, not this one," Kara said.
Chris smiles. "Kara, welcome back. Since you ditched most of this challenge, you need to eat that regardless. Oh, and you can't eat anything else until then, so if you want any food for as long as you're here, you might want to eat up." Kara sighed.
Paul takes out his hand from the log. "Dude, there's nothing in there," he complains.
Chris smiled. "Oh, that one." He laughed. "Yeah, your meal is the log." Paul gulped.
Dining Bunker, Kitchen
Chef is seen with fire safety equipment and a blowtorch as he simply lights everything on fire, and puts in on plates.
Dining Bunker
Everyone is sitting at their seats, with whatever they just found. "Go!" Chris calls. Luna throws her food in before anyone begins. Norm and Paul gave up.
Kara looks at her roach. She then sees Kayla's cup of water. "Can I?" she asks.
Kayla shrugs. "Eh, go for it." Kara washes down the roach.
"Well," Chris says. "Even if Kara was eligible for immunity, she wouldn't get the point. Luna finished way before anyone." Everyone else sighed.
Dish 5
"What's up next?" Angie asked. "Uncooked squid?"
Chris smiled. "Nope. We have another tribute meal. This one's from season three!"
He pulls up a TV to see Heather in the confessional. "So I'm stuck going into the final three with Alejandro. it sucks because he's so good at everything. If I'm lucky, the final challenge will be some other disgusto eating thing, rat intestines or whatever, and he won't have Courtney to cheat for him." The rest of it played out, as Sierra walked in on her to discuss the Arch Villain's elimination, which failed in the end.
"You don't mean-" Kayla started.
"Oh, I do," Chris said, laughing. "Rat intestines!"
Jonathan: Normally I'd be mad. But I have to scarf it down anyway, so Ethan can't win. (He gags at the thought of the food)
"Go!" Chris says. Everyone just sat looking at their bowls. Jonathan started first, and really went to town.
Kayla got up. "Nope, I'm done." She walks out. "Just watching that is hurting me." She exits.
"Wimp," Angie scoffs. She pokes at her food, and it jiggles. "Yeah, this isn't going to sit well." She starts eating slowly.
Ethan is eating quickly again, and is in an eating race with Jonathan. Eventually one of them comes out on top. "We have a winner for this round!" Chris says, holding up Jonathan's hand. "So Jonathan's at two points."
"So we both get immunity?" Ethan asked.
"No dice," Chris says. "You're gonna be in a tiebreaker!"
Jonathan: (he's holding the spider) And I'm so glad I'm ready for it. (He squirts out green liquid from the spider into a cup.)
Tiebreaker
Ethan and Jonathan stood at opposite ends. Chris put two plates out in the middle. He then put out a bowl. "Here's how this will work," he explained as the two met him in the middle. "You both will have to eat this!" A bunch of breath mints fall onto the plate. "This mints were used slightly, then discarded. Have fun with those." Then, orange liquid falls into the bowl. "Then, drink this unknown stuff in here. This must be done in this order."
"Chris," Jonathan asked. "Are there any replacements to what is presented before us?"
"Nope," Chris confirmed. "What's there is what you must eat."
"Excellent," Jonathan said darkly, then poured the cup of green stuff in Ethan's bowl.
"Um, what was that?" Ethan asked.
"Juice from the spider I got," Jonathan said. "And yes," he went on, "It is poisonous, and now, so is that liquid."
Norm: Well, it was nice knowing Ethan.
"Go!" Chris called. They both started crunching down on the breath mints. Ethan narrowly finished them first. He was about to start on his poisoned liquid, when interrupted by Chris. "Hey, something that might be of help," Chris said. "Unless you consent to not suing us and staying on the island from poisoning, if you are poisoned, you're out of the competition for good."
Ethan nodded. "Good to know." He stared down Jonathan. "I consent to receiving this poison and wish to stay in the competition."
"Works for me," Chris says. Ethan began drinking the liquid. Jonathan had finished the mints, and began drinking his as well.
Ethan: It was just a classic, 'mints then orange juice' kinda deal. It would have been bearable, had I known I wasn't currently being POISONED!
Ethan threw down his bowl. "Done!" He cried out wearily. He then fell over.
Chris grimaced at his collapse. "Yeah, he's gonna need a trip to the infirmary."
"I'll take him," Norm said. He then dragged Ethan away.
Jonathan turned to everyone else. "Ethan may have won, but we can still weaken him. Vote with me, all of you."
Paul stood up. "You just poisoned someone."
Kayla got in Paul's face. "You pushed me off a mountain!" Paul shrugged.
Jonathan glared at all of them. "Okay then. Here's my deal. Vote with me, or you're gone instead, got it?" No one really budged. He sighed. "Fine, do what you want, but I'm making the smart decision tonight."
Infirmary
It was a couple hours later. Ethan finally woke up. "Did I win?" he asked Norm, who was sitting there.
"You did," Norm said. "But you're stuck down here. Since you have immunity, Chris said to stay down here, since you aren't able to be sent home."
"How do I vote?" Ethan asked groggily. He then puked into a bucket.
Norm backed off a bit. "I can vote on your behalf. I assume you want a vote for Jonathan?"
"Yeah," Ethan said. "People just watched him poison someone. I hope they can see my good nature after that.
Elimination 13, Merge
The seven campers present sat down at the bonfire. Kara, Kayla, Luna, and Norm sat in the front, while Jonathan, Angie, and Paul were in the back. "Well," Chris said. "A lot of you did nothing today, and you're going to be safe from it. Others," he said, looking at Kara, "didn't participate at all, and still ended up eating a roach and rat intestines. Good stuff." Kara sighed. "But, since no one here voted for you tonight, you're safe." She smiled, catching her marshmallow. "Also safe," Chris went on, "is...
Kayla,
Luna,
Ethan, if he was here,
Paul,
Angie." They all caught their marshmallows, save for Ethan. Chris faced the remaining two. "Jonathan. You're dangerous. Manipulative, and we just learned that you won't hesitate to snitch on someone, or even poison them."
"He could have given up," he calmly defended.
Chris continued. "Aaand Norm. You aren't manipulative, but we learned that this whole game you've been allied with the most dangerous player here, and you've also neglected to tell people some secrets."
"Get over it," Norm said. "Just send me home."
"Hey!" Chris shouted. "You cannot spoil my nail-biting tension I am creating! Tonight's loser Norm, is...

...you. Yeah, you're done." Jonathan smirked at the genius.
"I think he spoiled your nail-biting tension," Angie said. Chris growled.
Norm got up, and walked over to Chris. He stole the Launch of Shame remote from him. "Now, I don't want to be long," Norm said. "You know I'm going to check the votes, when I can, so fess up now. Who voted me off?"
Angie started. "Jonathan got to me. Sorry."
Jonathan raised his hand as well. "You knew this."
Paul, Kayla, and Kara all raised their hands. "He made some good points," Paul commented. "I was astounded he could even do that."
Luna fidgeted in her seat, then raised her hand as well. She teared up. "I'm sorry."
Norm shrugged. "No big deal," he said, deadpanned. "You messed up, and my time on this show is over." He walked over to the Launch of Shame, and stood on the pad. "And so is our relationship," he added. He pressed the button, and launched himself off. Luna cried briefly, then stopped.
Luna: I know I messed up, but if he's going to take it like that, then maybe it's a good call.
"Hey!" Chris called out. "I'm supposed to do that!" Everyone else walked off back to the campsites.
As they were walking back, Paul went over to Jonathan. "I voted with you tonight, but that doesn't mean you're safe." Jonathan shrugged and continued his walk to the cabins. Then, he was stopped.
"You messed up."
Jonathan turned to see the shadow figure, holding three swords. "Okay, who are you, and what's with the sharp stuff?" Jonathan called out.
"That's not your concern," the figure said. "I have three swords tonight. One for each hand," it started. "And one for your neck." He threw it at the wall. "I missed on purpose," it continued. "Maybe next time I won't." It began walking off.
"Wait!" Jonathan called out. "What's your name?"
The figure shrugged. "You will find out in time. For now, you can call me Quaoar."
Infirmary
Ethan lay in the bed, when Jonathan walked in. "Where's Norm?" he asked sleepily.
Jonathan laughed at him. "Oh, him? Yeah, he's gone. I would say no hard feelings, but we both know the truth." He walked out, while Ethan glared at him.
"Revenge is a dish best served cold, or in Ethan's case, poisoned," Chris said on the dock. "We say a sad goodbye to Norm, and a not so new hello to Jonathan's new friend, Quaoar. Who is it? Is Ethan going to get revenge? Find out next time, on Total! Drama! Karon Island!"

So the Antisocial Genius is outta here.
No one guessed right, didn't help that one person guessed.
So we met Quaoar. The name Quaoar is from a dwarf planet somewhere. I picked that one because of information I cannot tell you yet. If you do research though, you can identify Quaoar possibly.
Norm just wasn't winning material, and now Angie can be resident snark master. Ain't that fun?
Yup, broke up Lunorm too. There's a reason.
Eliminated Character Fact:
Norm takes many striking similarities to Noah (World Tour, not Island or RR). It's all for a reason you may have to wait for.
On a side note, I am finished with all the pre-drafting up through the finale! So, here's the deal: In an effort to get this story wrapped up faster than once a week, if I get at least two reviews on a chapter I'll just throw up the next one! (Limit to once every 2 days)
