Like alwahs, Chris started things off with a recap from his living quarters "Last time on Total Drama World Tour: Our newlywed couples fell hard for Niagara Falls. With the teams dissolved alliances were tested, with the same being said for a few tempers. The newly returned Courtney however found that the honeymoon challenge was the perfect way to make nice with Duncan again after all of the drama that Alejandro forced on them, but game wise it really didn't do either of them much good. In the end the two of them got sent home and they both went out in style, leaving only 7 competitors remaining. That leaves a good number of questions I don't care enough to answer: Who will win? Who will lose? Who will be-" he looked and found Adam in his hot tub "In my hot tub?! Dude the tub is for hosts only."

"Well then just sit back and watch the master." Adam turned to the camera "Lights, fights and a whole world of awesome sights left for us to ruin right here on Total! Drama! World-"

"Alright already you get my point, get out of my tub!"

XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX

A typical day on the Total Drama Jumbo Jet.

Adam sat in the dining hall with Noah talking strategy over a game of cards "I know it probably wasn't the best move to vote off Duncan and Courtney like that but in my defense-"

"You said that yourself that it got old." Noah finished for him "But like Cody said, it was old way before you got to it."

"That does put us in a tight spot though, I mean with those two gone that means we lost 2 votes against Alejandro that we could count on."

"Easy tiger, you can't jump the gun on stuff like this. Remember the plan, we have to widdle away at the pawns until he's left defenseless and that's when we strike."

"That means we have to get rid of the one pawn he still has left. In other words…"

"Exactly. Tyler."

XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX

"Yes!" Tyler pumped a fist in triumph "I can't even begin to describe how stoked I am about this whole thing! I'm in the final 7 already, at this point I don't see why I couldn't go all the way to the end! To my hockey bros back home who said I wouldn't last in the game, suck on that one boys! And Lindsay babe, if you're watching this then just know that I'm dedicating today's performance to you. You remember me right? Me? Tyler? Your boyfriend?"

XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX

Cody let out a sigh as he stretched his aching limbs "Oh man…"

"Sleep well mi amigo?"

Cody jumped and noticed Alejandro sitting next to him "Oh it's just you."

"Buenos dias to you too. Now that pleasentries are out of the way, would you mind answering a few questions for me?"

"I'm not giving you any of Adam's secrets so you can defeat him."

"Good to know for the future but that's not it." his expression turned from cocky and charming to serious "What can you tell me about a being by the name of Mal?"

Cody froze in place, his eyes wide with shock "How… How do you know about Mal?"

"It was back during our break in in Area 51, I got a good glimpse of what Adam fears most in this world. However considering everything that has transpired this season one has to stop and wonder, what could this Mal have done that was so horrible that he could scare Adam the way that he has?"

"...You seriously believe I'm going to tell you Adam's deepest darkest secret? Well I'll have you know Al that if I told you then not only would I be betraying Adam but I would be betraying a close friend of his too. I'm not going to do that to him."

"Fair enough I suppose."

"But it will tell you this. Any idiot can tell that Heather's into you."

"Well of course, she craves the Alejandro like a baked chicken cresced mullein sauce. I mean granted her mouth claims of repulsion but her eyes are filled with passion."

"...Yeah that's about all I can take of this conversation." and he left.

XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX

Cody let out a sigh "Don't get me wrong, I love having Adam around and Bridgette and DJ are both awesome but I really miss Gwen."

XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX

A few hours passed, and the Total Drama Jumbo Jet dropped the 7 remaining contestants off at their next destination.

Chris gathered the remaining 7 contestants at the starting point of their next challenge "Ni hao and welcome to China, a vast country rich in history, culture, innovation and a vast quantity of delicious sauces. Our first challenge is torn from the pages of her rich history, in 8 million BC King Dim Sum led a battalion of donkey warriors down this very great wall."

"You're not even trying anymore." Noah noted dryly "8 million BC was the Miocene Era, there were dinosaurs."

"No there weren't." Tyler told him "Dinosaurs went extinct at the end of the Mesozoic Era which was 65 million years ago, the Miocene was was primarily marked by the emergence of kelp forests and grasslands which resulted in 95% of modern plant species and a vast expansion of grazing animals which include the great apes." he received jaw dropped looks from everyone present, in particular Alejandro and Noah "What, do I have something on my face?"

"ANYWAY." Chris was just as weirded out as the rest of them "We've provided a selection of vehicles for all of you to use to race to our mystery destination. They're first come first serve, it's the Chinese way. Ready, set-" as they took their positions his phone rang "Oh hold on, I'd better get this. McLean here. Yeah I'm kind of in the middle of doing a show."

"So do we go or what?" asked Noah.

"Uh huh, yep."

"Yeah we go?" asked Alejandro.

"Yeah look can we do this later?"

"So we go now?" asked DJ.

"Okay fine!"

"Oh the hell with it I'm going!" Adam took off running, and everyone else decided not to waste time and followed him.

"Hey who said you guys could go?" Chris promptly hung up "Yeah well you guys might wanna watch out, there's a few things I was gonna warn you about but now you can forget it!"

XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX

"Alright a race, now that's what I'm talking about!" Adam pumped a fist "Finally a challenge I can get behind! First I wanna send a shoutout to my buddy Mike back home and to his ridiculously extended family Svetlana, Vito and Manitoba! Thanks a ton for the kickass training regimen, what with the sprints and the hand to hand combat training! Now I'm as strong as an ox and as fast as a cheetah!" he let out a roar "Time to kick things up a notch."

XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX

Bridgette stopped when she reached the choices, only to find Adam and Alejandro stopping right behind her "Oh did you guys wanna go first?"

Alejandro held up a hand "Please senorita, I believe that I speak for both Adam and myself when I say that you should take the first pick."

"Are you sure? I mean…"

"Hey you heard Jalapeno, we might hate each other's guts but I'm friends with his brother we're nothing if not chivalrous." Adam told her.

"Well if you're sure…" she hopped on the skateboard "See you at the finish line boys!" and she took off much faster than either of them had anticipated.

"Well that happened."

"So it did." Alejandro hopped on the bike "It is unfortunate that Bridgette chose the skateboard, I happened to win a gold medal at the South American skae Olympics but it is what it is I suppose."

"So it is."

"See you at the finish!" he took off pedalling down the Great Wall of China.

"Yeah I'll catch up to you!" Adam made his way over to the other modes of transportation "Now let's see here…"

"Dibs!" Tyler almost immediately hopped on the tricycle and rushed off.

"Okay that leaves Noah, DJ and Cody."

"Hey man." DJ made his way over, panting heavily "Oh man… so did you…"

"Nope I'm plannning on hoofing it, though I plan on letting Cody have the tiger."

"What?! Dude are you nuts?!"

"Hey I've got my own way with animals even if it's not as good as Bridgette's, and besides I know the trick to tame any animal. Observe." he went over to the tiger and scratched it behind the ear, leaving it to crash on its back almost instantly "If it helps dude the donkey is still free."

"Thanks for the heads up." DJ hopped on the donkey "Alright then, you mind giving me a little bit of gas?" he received a fart "That's not what I meant."

"Just kick him in the side dude."

DJ did, causing him to kick Noah in the face and take off running.

"Ouch." Adam helped Noah to his feet "You okay man?"

"I just got drop kicked by a donkey." Noah pointed out dryly "What do you think?"

"Tell you what, I'll carry you in the rickshaw if you just wait here for a minute."

"Works for me."

"Good, now just hold on. Hey Cody."

As it turns out, Cody had already hopped on the tiger's back "You planning to drop them for this one?"

"Oh you better believe it, and being able to pull Noah on the rickshaw is just icing on that cake."

"Well good luck with that, now onwards!" Cody pointed and the tiger took off like it was hot.

XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX

The race was heating up further down the wall.

Alejandro was keeping up with Bridgette neck and neck "I must admit senorita I am quite impressed by your abilities as an athlete, if we were not enemies today then I would stop to applaud you and commend your skills!"

"My thoughts about you exactly!" Bridgette pushed along and moved along the wall without a single flaw "At least I would say that if it wasn't for the things you've done this season!"

"...Oh, you're still sore about that?"

"The people that you've screwed over up to this point are all my friends and Courtney is my best friend, what you did to her and Duncan was unforgivable. How is it that people in this world like you and Heather can just manipulate others for your own selfish gain without a single hint of remorse?"

"Believe me when I tell you that my reasons for needing this prize money are my own and not as self centered as you might believe, and I'm sure Adam would understand almost immediately if he were to find out."

"So what then, you don't care about how you accomplish this so called noble goal as long as you do?"

"Well I suppose that's one way to-"

"Hey guys, you wanna know what else the Chinese invented?"

Alejandro looked ahead and noticed something on the road in front of them "Oh hijo de-" his screams of pain were drowned out by the explosion that followed.

"Gunpowder, the answer is gunpowder."

"WHOO HOO!" Cody raced right along on his tiger.

XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX

"Maltido!" Alejandro gripped his fists "This is one of the things I was afraid of, she's a very strong competitor and aside from Adam she may very well be my biggest threat. I would almost admire her if she didn't stand in my way, then again I cannot risk earning Adam's ire quite this soon after the merge."

XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX

Adam grabbed onto the rickshaw after discarding his leg weights, his waited wristbands and his weighted t shirt "Alright, that takes off about 120 pound in total You ready?"

Noah leaned back and grinned "Show me what you've got big guy."

"Alright then, let's do it!" Adam took off running down the Great Wall of China at top speed "I hope you're ready Alejandro, we're coming for you!"

XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX

The race went on with the two in the lead, as a third party began to catch up.

Alejandro peddled his way alongside Bridgette "Thought you lost me did you?"

"Well you don't give up I'll give you that much!" Bridgette pushed her way further ahead into the lead.

'Diso mio, does this surfer girl ever run out of energy? It's a shame my seduction tactic won't work on this one, not when her heart has been captured by Adam.'

"Sorry but-"

"Coming through!" Adam pulled up alongside her, pulling Noah in the rickshaw "Hey, how have you been holding up?"

"I'm getting there… and… uh…" she started drooling at the sight of Adam shirtless.

"Oh yeah I forgot to tell you, I wear a weighted t shirt for working out along with weights I hide under my pants and weighted wristbands. I'm basically working out 24/7." he snapped his fingers in her face, snapping her out of it.

"Oh yeah, yeah! Sorry, it just got… kind of hot up here."

"And I've got a pretty good idea of where it's coming from. Anyway Cody's a little ways behind us and DJ and Tyler are basically battling it out for last place."

XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX

Sure enough, DJ and Tyler were battling it out neck and neck at the "It's just that the last thing that Lindsay said to me before she got the boot back in Paris was that she wanted me to win the whole thing for her, but now that she's gone I still feel bummed about it."

"Hey come on man, you're putting way too much thought into this." DJ told him "I mean just look at how far the both of us have come this time around, I mean this is the farthest we've ever made it and we've both managed to crack the final 7. Lindsay made it to the final 6 last season so if you making it as far as this doesn't help you remember then I don't know what will. You just have to have some faith in her."

"Wow… you know maybe you're right man, I guess I just gotta-" he was cut off when he hit an explosive and was sent flying through the air.

DJ skidded to a stop "Dude you okay?" he received a scream in response "Okay good he's alright." and he went on ahead.

XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX

Chris watched the carnage unfolding from afar in his helicopter "Anybody who manages to survive, meet me at the finish line! There's more explosive action to come plus free fortune cookies that come with every takeout entre right here on Total! Drama! World Tour!" he looked down and watched as Tyler flew through the air.

XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX

It wasn't long before the commercial break had ended.

Chris was standing by the finish line on the Great Wall of China "Welcome back to Total Drama World Tour, where our contestants are in a mega tough race down the Great Wall of-"

"Look out!" Bridgette skidded to a stop beyond the finish line.

Adam ground to a halt along with Noah, with Alejandro right behind them "Okay so I guess that's Bridgette in first, me and Noah tied for second and La Cucaracha back there in third. Does that sound about right?"

Chris shrugged "Not like it matters, there's no prize for first anyway."

"What the hell does that mean?"

"It means that if you had bothered to wait for me to tell you guys the rules then anyone who manages to make it over the line before I ring that gigantic gong gets to join me for a very special lunch which will be the second part of today's challenge."

"Coming through!" Cody pulled on the tiger's ears to get him to stop, only to be catapulted into the gong, leading to a mighty thid and ringing noise "Ow…"

"Okay that makes-"

"Yes!" DJ skidded to a halt on his ride right before the gong rang.

"And with that, 6 out of the 7 of you will move on to the second part of today's competition."

XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX

Adam sat in thought for a moment "Knowing what McLean is like very special lunch most likely involves something along the lines of the Brunch of Disgustingness challenge from season 1. It's times like this I'm glad I've got a stomach of steel."

XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX

Alejandro shuddered "I've been dreading the eating competition because my body is my temple and what temple keeper would dare to contaminate this?" he ripped off his shirt and waved his pecks a little to emphasize and looked down at his necklace "No Alejandro you must pull it together, for the sake of your goal you cannot fail today."

XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX

Chris led the remaining 6 contestants to a Chinese resaurant "In order to secure the win for today you're going to have to eat more than everyone else at this totally awesome Chinese restaurant."

Cody shrugged "Works for me, I mean who doesn't love wantons? Last New Years I ate about 1,000 of-"

"Except here's the thing Cody, this is the most authentic Chinese restaurant in the world, which means that you guys are gonna be enjoying real street food delicacies like deep fried grasshoppers, Kung Pao larvae and the like."

"Oh no." Alejandro had to stop himself from gagging.

"You alright iron stomach?" Noah mocked.

"Oh please amigo, I'm fine. Where I come from we eat barbecued guinea pig, this is nothing in comparison."

"Bullshit." Adam blurted out in between fake coughs.

"I'M HERE!" Tyler suddenly rushed onto the scene, his clothes torn and his face bruised "What did I miss?"

"Not as much as we did by the looks of it, what the hell happened to you?"

"Well you know how I got blown away by that dynamite or whatever right? Well when I landed some giant Chinese dudes came up to me and put me in some carriage, they tied me up and yelled at me for no reason and I was trying to calm them down and all. For a few minutes I kept on getting yelled at and punched a lot until they ended up getting shot with real guns! They were wearing tracksuit clothes like the one I've got and then they stole me from the first bunch of Chinese guys! I think they thought I was one of them because I heard them complaining they let me go in some weird neighborhood, Chef found me and led me here after all that. Man, weirdest day ever!"

"...Yeah, good to know."

"Like I was saying." Chris went on "You guys have to eat each bowl of delish food and open your mouth to prove that it went down, if you're last to finish or you puke then you guys go and sit with Tyler on the loser bench."

"Hey man that's not fair, benchwarmers are not losers!" Tyler protested.

"Said no one ever." this was followed by Chef handing out the first course.

Bridgette picked up her food with her chopsticks and seemed rather wary of it "What exactly is this?" and cue the ding.

"Allow me to begin the number for today." so Chris took over to begin the song "A little Chinese lesson for you: Manman chi means enjoy your meal."

Adam, Alejandro, Bridgette, Cody, DJ and Noah took over for the chorus "Manman chi, it's no raw deal!"

Bridgette stared at hers in disgust "There's no way this can be real."

"Oh it's real alright." Chris told her "It's donkey meat, a local delicacy."

"What?!" DJ bolted out of his seat "Ace where are you buddy?! Fart if you can hear me!" he heard a fart in the distance "Oh good." he looked down at his food "Whatever donkey you might be, I am so sorry." he put it in his mouth, albeit reluctantly.

"Done!" Adam opened his mouth, with Alejandro doing the same a split second later, and Cody and Noah following not long afterwards.

Bridgette, however, pushed hers away "I can't do it, I just can't."

Chris made the call "Bridgette you're out, you go to the loser bench." he sent her over in order to join Tyler and once the second course had been handed out he began the next verse "Manman chi means bon appetit!"

"Manman chi what do we have to eat?" DJ looked down at his "I think it's still moving its feet! Do you even bother to cook this stuff?"

"This one is live mealworms, another local delicacy."

Adam downed his in less than a minute "5 stars Chef."

"Oh man-" DJ was cut off by him puking.

"DJ you're out, loser bench for you man." Chris received an accidental stream of vomit to the face from DJ and an offered napkin from Cody "Thank you Cody." he nonchalantly wiped it away and once Chef passed out the next course he began the next verse "Manman chi it's dinner for 4!"

"Manman chi we've got room for more!" Cody looked at his food "I think I'm nearly done for!"

"Starfish on a skewer, a local delicacy."

Adam downed his first, with Alejandro and Noah each taking a few moments "Done and done McLean." he hopened his mouth.

"And Adam comes in first again, which is not surprising to me since I actually saw his audition tape."

Cody, however, puked his out "I'm done…"

"Cody you're out, loser bench!" Chris sent Cody on his way as Chef handed out the fourth course to everybody "I'll be honest, we don't even know what this one's called but whatever it is we know it ain't right. Anyway here's the deal, now that we're down to just Adam, Alejandro and Noah we're gonna have one last lightning round with the final three. The first person to finish their food wins and gets invincibility in tonight's vote and they get to take one person of their choice up to first class with them. Let's get on with it people."

This time around, Adam, Alejandro and Noah started things off, with Alejandro appearing as rather apprehensive about it and coming off as off key "Manman chi, manman chi…"

"They love to eat on The Yangtze!" Manmanchi, manman-" he was promptly cut off by the sound of Alejandro puking "One down…"

Adam finished downing his bowl with Noah right beside him "Now I've won this day you see, I fly first class for free!"

XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX

An hour passed, and the Total Drama Jumbo Jet was flying high through the skies to the next destination.

Adam listened to Alejandro puking in the confessional "Well that's not gonna stop anytime soon."

"Oh joy, listening to a handsome guy vomit. Every nerd's dream." Noah noted dryly.

"So we're sticking to the plan right?"

"Voting off Tyler and leaving Alejandro alone? You bet, but who else do we have?"

"I already talked to Cody and he agreed, that makes 3 so we just need the final vote to come from Alejandro himself and Tyler is as good as gone. I mean sure I feel kind of bad about it but if it means we get rid of Alejandro then I'm all for it." they shook on it "It's a done deal then."

XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX

The time had come for the elimination ceremony, everyone had been gathered in the elimination hall.

Chris read over the votes "Interesting, very interesting. Okay, so we've got one vote for Tyler and one vote for Alejandro. A second vote for Tyler, a second vote for Alejandro. A third vote for Tyler, a third for Alejandro. And with this seventh and final vote, it looks like tonight's lucky loser is… Tyler!" he tossed Tyler a parachute "Sorry dude, it looks like you're gone."

Tyler hung his head for a second, but then he perked right back up "Hey no worries guys, who really needs a million bucks? After all I've got a beautiful girlfriend waiting for me back home and I managed to make it all the way to the final 7, that's gotta be a feat in of itself! The way I see it you can't put a price on stuff like that."

"That you can't mi amigo." Aalejandro patted him on the shoulder "Making it all the way to the final 7 is no minor feat, I mean Izzy had to be brought back to make that happen and you did it on your second try. You oughta be proud of yourself."

"Hey thanks man."

"Oh and say hello to the others for me when you see them."

"You got it man." he looked back at the rest of his former team "Hey Noah, do what Owen said and show them what you've got." he gave a thumbs up and took his jump out of the Drop of Shame.

"Guys like him don't get enough credit." Adam commented.

"Story of my life." Chris muttered.

"What was that?"

"I asked who you were planning to bring with you to first class?"

"It's honestly a tough call but… I'm gonna have to go with Noah."

"...Are you serious?"

"Sure I am, I've come to respect him over the course of the season."

XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX

Another hour passed, and things were quiet and peaceful up in first class.

Adam sat on the couch engaging Noah in a game of chess "So it looks like your plan is working like a charm."

"Looks like." Noah looked up from his chess board "You've been holding up well on your end."

"I lost almost half my team because of Alejandro and that was before the merge."

"That kind of thing can't be helpeb but that's not what I meant, I was talking about a certain hot blonde in a ponytail?"

"...Son of a bitch, I was hoping you forgot about that."

"I don't forget things."

"Okay fine, the truth is that Bridgette is the most awesome girl I've ever met. I mean give me a reason not to. She's beautiful, she's humble and down to earth, she's great with animals, she never holds a grudge, in my eyes she might as well be the total package. I also know that I'd treat her like a goddess. But how the hell am I supposed to know if she feels the same way?"

"You're kidding right? Dude she's been drooling over you more than my golden lab at home drools over a ribeye steak."

"That's nothing new, I mean I don't wanna sound arrogant but have you seen these muscles? The ladies dig them big time."

"Don't remind me."

"Look the point is that even if the attraction is mutual I'm not gonna screw up the game for it like how Trent did with Gwen last season."

"Good, the last thing I need is to see one of the two people I can talk to on this place. The other being Cody."

"Good, now let's get back to the game."

XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX

Chris took this moment to sign off of the show "6 contestants remaining, 1 million dollars on the line, and a whole bunch of the world left for us to mess with. Be sure to join us next time right here on Total! Drama! World Tour!"

A/N:

I figured that by this point Tyler had outlived his usefulness, which is kind of sad considering that my original plan was for him to make it to the final three though I decided it made more sense for Noah to get there since he was onto Alejandro from the beginning.

Alejandro trying to grill Cody on Mal will play a role in the sequel to this story, just wait and see. Oh, and for the sequel I will be using ideas from a fanfic I found on Deviantart.

Sorry if this chapter was a bit on the short side but I promise next chapter will make up for it, it will be mostly based on chapter 7 of a Codette World Tour and if you've read it then you know what's gonna go down. If you don't then let me tell you: Adam and Bridgette will become a couple.
