Lights, Camera, and Total Drama: Part Five
When Duncan reached the high school on his bike, he wasn't expecting the ghost to be Johnny 13 speeding right past him with what looked like a young woman in a red and black fully body suit with a jetpack and an energy based rifle shooting at the ghost. Duncan remembered fighting against Johnny 13 and felt that he wasn't much of a threat, but this red clad woman may be a problem with how every shot that missed Johnny tore holes through whatever was in the beam's path. Duncan realized that it was the Red Huntress that Danny warned him about roughly after his return to Amity Park after the lawsuit. Deciding it was best that he tried to keep this from escalating, Duncan turned his bike around and chased after the Red Huntress.
As Duncan followed after the Red Huntress, the warning system installed in her helmet alerted her that she was being followed. Valerie turned her head slightly to see that it was someone on a motorcycle. The helmet's scanners zoomed in on the motorcyclist and Valerie was enraged when she saw that the motorcyclist was the other Kamen Rider who was responsible for her father being put in the hospital crippled and in a coma.
"So you finally decided to show yourself to me, you son of a bitch," Valerie growled as she turned her attention away from Johnny 13 and fired at the red gloved Kamen Rider.
"Oh shit!" Duncan yelled as he swerved away from the red beam that was about to hit him. "What is that girl's problem!?" he yelled as he tried to avoid another shot.
While Valerie was focusing on Duncan, Johnny 13 noticed that he was no longer being hunted and headed off to make his getaway. What Johnny didn't know was that someone else was watching him flee.
Hidden within the shadows was Nocturne, who was on the prowl for the demon that attacked a while ago. When he and his allies saw the demon attack on the local news, Desiree recognized the demon as Ember McLain and was disgusted by her transformation into a demon. The four powerful ghosts discussed on what should be done about Ember since she could cause more trouble for them. The Fright Knight noted that there was something off about her demon form but concluded that she needed to be eliminated before she causes more harm to their plans. The four of them agreed that Ember should be put down, permanently.
So when Nocturne spotted Johnny 13, the ancient ghost thought up of a devious plan to lure Ember out and that Johnny would be a good choice in the form of bait.
"The fool can be of use to us," Nocturne said to himself as he followed after Johnny.
Back with Duncan and Valerie, the red gloved Rider was far too busy trying to avoid Valerie's assault that he couldn't find an opening for him to get off his bike so he could counterattack. He dodged another shot from her rifle before forming an ectoplasm knife and threw it at the rifle. The ecto-knife hit the barrel of the rifle causing it to overload, forcing Valerie to discard the weapon. However, the Red Huntress refused to give up on going after Duncan as she flew towards him.
Duncan sped down the road and noticed that he was about to collide with a building. He also noticed that, much to his misfortune, Team Suffering Spooks was arguing in front of the building he was heading towards. He was getting close to them with Valerie on his tail and unfortunately two of the members of the team noticed that he was heading directly towards them.
"Guys look!" Bridgette shouted towards her teammates as she pointed at Kamen Rider Edge.
"Is that one of those ghosts we're supposed to catch?" Cody asked.
"I would say yes," Alejandro answered. "And he's heading this way!" he yelled as he ducked out of the way.
The rest of the team followed his example and jumped out of the way.
Duncan was thinking about turning intangible to pass through the building he was heading towards, but he decided to do something a bit more different. He sped up more before popping a wheelie as he reached the building. The team watched as Kamen Rider Edge pretty much rode up on the side of the building as if he was driving on the road.
The Suffering Spooks tried to get back up once they believe they were safe, but they ducked back down when they saw a red female figure flying towards them.
The Red Huntress followed after Kamen Rider Edge and pulled up before hitting the building. She flew up into the air, hoping to spot the Kamen Rider but once she reached the top of the building, her prey had escaped her.
"Son of a bitch!" the Red Huntress cursed before flying off to find him.
Back on the ground, the Suffering Spooks got back up and looked at each other.
"Is everyone alright?" Bridgette asked her team.
"I'm fine," Gwen replied. "Considering that we were almost hit by a motorcyclist who thinks he's Ghost Rider and some chick in a red suit," she added.
"I'm okay too," LaShawna replied as well.
"So long as I am here ladies, you won't have to worry about any unexpected attacks again," Alejandro said to the girls of his team.
Gwen, Bridgette, and LaShawna rolled their eyes at Alejandro, knowing that he was simply trying to play them for fools.
"I can't believe you all let that ghost get away!" Courtney yelled at her teammates. "It practically gift wrapped itself to us and none of you even bother to catch it!" she continued.
"Excuse me," LaShawna started to retort. "But didn't you hit the ground to save your skinny little ass from getting hit like the rest of us?" she pointed out.
As one would expect, an argument started to escalate as Courtney and LaShawna screamed at each other while the rest of the team tried to calm them down. While that was going on, Duncan had managed to lose Valerie and changed out of his Kamen Rider form and headed back home. He knew he should have gone looking for Johnny 13, but with the Red Huntress on his trail, Duncan decided to let the ghost motorcyclist off the hook for now.
Once Duncan made it back to his apartment, he noticed his mother was sitting on the couch they bought watching TV. Kristen spotted her son and realized that he must have returned from his nightly patrols.
"How was patrol son?" Kristen asked Duncan.
"Nothing special," Duncan replied. "Had a run-in with the Red Huntress Danny warned me about, but I gave her the slip," he elaborated.
"Another ghost hunter?" Kristen asked.
"More like a very angry girl who somehow got a hold of some very dangerous toys," Duncan answered.
"What is going on with this town?" Kristen wondered. "First ghosts, then you and your friend fighting these ghosts, that horrible Total Drama show comes all the way here, and now a vengeful girl armed with deadly weapons," she listed. "What's next, an army of zombies invading?" she finished.
"Not yet, but chances are that might happen," Duncan joked.
Kristen looked at her son in an unamused manner. Duncan felt a little nervous with his mother staring at him like that.
"Uh…I'm be in my room getting some sleep," Duncan told his mother. "Good night Ma," he added before heading into his room.
"Good night Duncan," Kristen replied as she turned her attention back towards the TV. "How does Vincent put up with this place?" she wondered to herself as she thought about the poor unfortunate man who had to endure the madness that Chris McLean has brought to the Fenton household.
Over at said Fenton household, Vince had just gotten off the phone with Danny, who was going to stay over at Sam's place for tonight. Vince was going to tell Danny that he couldn't stay at his girlfriend's house because tomorrow was a school day, but then Vince remembered that the cast of Total Drama were still going to be here. Remembering how Danny was close to killing a couple of the cast members, Vince thought it was better for Danny to stay in the Manson Manor. He knew that Sam's parents won't like it, but he could deal with them bitching at him later.
"Uncle Vince, have you seen Danny around?" Jazz asked as she came downstairs for a glass of water.
"He's staying over at Sam's house tonight," Vince told Jazz.
"What!?" Jazz yelled. "But he can't stay at a girl's house this late," she started to rant. "Don't you know what could happen…" she continued until her uncle stopped her.
"Would you rather Danny stays here with a bunch of obnoxious, mentally unstable teenagers who think they are major celebrities?" Vince pointed out. "And don't forget how Danny successfully launched the largest one into the air before punching him ten feet away," he added. "For the sake of those idiots and your brother not facing any potential lawsuits, I'm letting him stay at Sam's place just for tonight," he finished.
"But…" Jazz tried to argue.
"Do you like the idea of cleaning up the blood that would be spilled in this house while the Box Ghost and I get rid of the bodies of Canada's most popular and stupidest teenagers after your brother slaughters them if he has to put up with them again?" Vince asked his niece.
Jazz stopped to think about what her uncle just told her and realized that he was right. She did not want to clean up all the blood that Danny would have spilled after causing severe bodily harm of death to the cast of Total Drama. She had already heard about the rumors of Danny almost breaking Dash's arm at the Nasty Burger several hours ago, and chances were good that Danny was close to breaking the dumb jock's arm since her little brother wasn't in the best of moods today.
"Fine," Jazz conceded. "But it doesn't mean that I like it," she added as she went into the kitchen to get a drink of water before going off to bed.
"But you're fine with fourteen Canadian freeloaders eating nearly all of our food?" Vince countered. "The way I see it, I have one less mouth to feed tomorrow," he added.
Back outside, the night was not calm in any shape or form as the Whimpering Wraiths were looking for both Lindsay and Justin, who was missing as well. The team had spent the rest of the night looking, but couldn't find a single trace of them and it was almost dawn. A few of them, such as Geoff and Trent were getting worried while others like Heather were frustrated with how the team was more concern over missing teammates instead of trying to win the challenge.
Eventually as the sun was starting to rise, the Whimpering Wraiths had no choice but to return to the Fenton household where they spotted the Suffering Spooks. Sierra, upon seeing Cody, rushed towards the boy and squeezed the life out of him with all of her might.
"Looks like ya'll didn't find your ghost huh?" LaShawna said to the Whimpering Wraiths.
"Pathetic," Courtney spat out as she placed her hands on her hips. "They even lost sight of two of their teammates," she added.
"Like you and your team did any better," Heather argued as she glared at Courtney.
"I hope Lindsay and Justin are okay," Bridgette said as she and Geoff hugged.
"I hope so too Babe," Geoff said to his girlfriend.
Before anyone else could say anything a black limo parked in front of the Fenton house with Chris and Chef stepping out to greet the teams.
"Good morning Campers!" Chris said aloud to the irritated teens. "I see that your first night ghost hunting was a bust," he added with a chuckle.
The teens groaned at Chris's joke while Chef rolled his eyes at said joke.
"All kidding aside, since neither team managed to find the ghost one member of the team that arrived last will be on the chopping block of elimination," Chris told the teams before noticing that they were short two people. "Team Whimpering Wraiths, you seem to be short of teammates. Care to explain," he mentioned to the Whimpering Wraiths.
"Well Chris, last night we lost Lindsay so we had to split up to look for her and Justin hasn't returned from looking for her," Trent told the host.
"Fine then," Chris said after hearing Trent's explanation. "Then they are considered eliminated, makes things easier and faster for me," he added with no hint of concern for the missing contestants.
"Seriously Chris?" Gwen started. "You're not even the slightest bit worried about them?" she asked.
"Hmm…nope," Chris replied in his usual manner.
"But what if something happens to them?" Bridgette asked. "What if they're hurt and have no idea where the hospital is?" she added.
"They should have thought about that before getting on that Danny kid's bad side," Chris pointed out. "And so should all of you because according to our producers, our viewers love that boy," he added.
"What!?" Courtney yelled out loud. "How could they like that insufferable, lazy twerp?" she complained.
"Simple really," Chris started. "Danny's violent reactions and lack of respect was so entertaining that the producers want me to get him a role in this season," he explained.
"The producers want a hostile and possibly psychotic guy on this show just because his violence in entertaining?" Gwen questioned. "Why don't they just ask for you to get Duncan back," she retorted. "I'm sure he's still got a couple of more seasons left in his contract," she sarcastically added.
"I would but after the lawsuit, our producers have decided that he wasn't worth bringing back," Chris replied. "Besides we need a fresh face, and Danny's face while having a bit of boyish charm," he added.
"Hey, I thought I was the one with the boyish charm," Cody complained as he struggled to break free from Sierra's vice-like grip.
"Of course you are Cody-kins," Sierra said as she continued to hug Cody to possibly an early grave. "Nobody, not even that nobody Danny could ever take that away from you," she added.
"Actually…" Chris interrupted. "According to a recent poll…" he continued.
"There was a poll?" Alejandro asked.
"Yes, yes there was," Chris replied. "As I was saying, according to a recent poll the majority of our female viewers were quite smitten when they saw Danny and want to see more of him," he explained. "And the kicker is that more than half of Cody's fans switched over to Danny," he added just for laughs.
"But…but that's impossible…" Sierra stuttered. "How could all of Cody's fans abandon my precious Cody-kins for that talentless nobody!?" she cried out.
"Maybe it's because unlike Cody, Danny actually scored with a creepy Goth girl?" Heather quipped.
"What's so great about Goth girls!?" Sierra continued to whine. "They're just a bunch of pale, disgusting, devil worshippers who should be burned alive!" she yelled out loud.
Gwen, Bridgette, LaShawna, Trent, Geoff, Alejandro, Ezekiel, and Owen gasped when they heard what Sierra just said. Gwen also looked very hurt by what Sierra just said while Bridgette tried to comfort Gwen and LaShawna was about to give the obsessive fan girl a piece of her mind.
"Oh no, you did not just say that crap about Goths with my girl, Gwen, standing right here!" LaShawna yelled just before tackling Sierra and laying down the smack down of a recently revealed Goth hater.
"WHAT THE HELL IS GOING ON OUT HERE!?" Vince yelled as he opened the front door to see LaShawna mounting Sierra and bashing her head in with Cody being crushed from underneath them.
"Ah Vincent Fenton," Chris started while ignoring the one-sided catfight. "Just the man I wanted to see," he added.
"What you have to say to me can wait," Vince told Chris while still looking at LaShawna beating Sierra's brains in. "What the Hell is the matter with you two!?" he yelled as he walked up to them and effortlessly pulled the two girls away from each other much to the amazement of the cast.
Confessional: Bridgette
"What is with the guys in this family being so strong but they look so slim?" Bridgette voiced out her question. "It usually takes two to three of the guys to hold LaShawna back when she's about to hit someone, usually Heather, but Mr. Fenton picked her up with one hand like she was ragdoll," she continued. "And then there's Danny who punched Owen ten feet into the air," she added.
Confessional: Trent
"Holy crap," Trent started. "First that Jazz girl throws Courtney into a wall, that Danny kid punches Owen ten feet into the air, and now their Uncle can lift up LaShawna single handedly along with Sierra with his other hand," he listed. "This family is not normal," he added.
Confessionals end
"Are you two knuckleheads so stupid that you've forgotten where you are?" Vince asked them but didn't get a response. "You're in the state of New York and quite recently the police are on edge," he told the girls.
"Why would the police be on edge dude?" Geoff asked before realizing that he was talking to Danny's uncle. "I mean Mr. Fenton," he corrected himself.
"Because of the NYPD officer killings in Brooklyn," Vince answered.
The cast looked at Vince in confusion.
Vince's eyes widened when he saw the blank stares on the cast's faces.
"You kids don't know?" Vince asked in shock.
The cast shook their heads.
"Two police officers in Brooklyn were killed in their own police car by a man who wanted revenge for the deaths of two men from two different police shootings," Vince explained.
"So?" LaShawna retorted. "The cops are always shooting people, especially the brothers," she added. "Serves them right," she finished.
"Well the killer happened to have been one of the "brothers" and the two cops he killed was an Asian and a Hispanic," Vince told LaShawna. "Not white like you were probably expecting," he added. "And we have you attacking a Hispanic girl and crushing a small white boy," he continued.
"So…much…pain…" Cody moaned.
"Walk it off kid," Vince dismissively told Cody. "Do you want to this kind of violence broadcast on international television where any dumbass with a gun can use this as an excuse to attack someone when the police are less willing to respond to domestic violence?" he asked. "And even if they were, they would be most likely use lethal force in order to protect themselves," he added.
Most of the cast lowered their heads after hearing Vince basically tell them that their actions could lead to more trouble for others. The only ones who didn't seem to care were Courtney and Heather.
"So what?" Heather retorted. "If these two idiots get arrested then that just means less competition," she added.
Vince glared at Heather, which caused the Asian girl to back down out of fear as she remembered that Vince was able to scare Chef Hatchet.
"Well then," Vince started to say as he dropped LaShawna and Sierra onto the ground. "Since you don't seem to care about what happens to your fellow cast mates, then there will be no breakfast for the whole lot of you in this house," he told the cast.
"What!?" the cast yelled in shock.
"You can't do that!" Courtney screeched. "You're not in charge of us!" she argued.
"No but I am," Chris interrupted. "And I will allow this penalty for both teams for failing in last night's challenge," he added.
"You two will be hearing from my lawyers!" Courtney cried out.
"Sure why not, you call them all the time," Chris lamented.
"And I can easily just get some pretty good lawyers to defend me," Vince pointed out.
"You can?" Chris asked.
"There are some perks about being an old college friend with one of the richest people in this town," Vince replied. "Then there is the fact that Danny and Jazz's parents were also college friends with Vlad Masters," he added.
Chris let out a whistle after hearing that Vince has connections to two very rich men, but then he remembered that Vlad Masters was also the man who got some of the best lawyers to represent Duncan during the Total Drama lawsuit. Chris then turned his attention to one of the cameramen so he could close off the episode.
"Will the Whimpering Wraiths make a comeback after losing two of their teams? Will LaShawna get back to punching out Sierra for that Goth comment? Find out next time on…" Chris began his ending for the show. "Total. Drama. Paranormal!" he yelled out before the cameraman cut the connection.
Once the ending was done, the cast, Chris, Chef, the camera crew, and Vince went inside the house. Jazz came down from the stairs so that she could get to the college campus for her morning classes. Vince waved his niece off as he turned his attention back to Chris while the cast walked towards the backyard to sleep in their tents.
When they got outside, a few of the cast members started to complain about their situation. However, they were unaware that Spinister was watching them from on top of the Emergency Ops Center.
"So the rest of them are hiding out here," Spinister said to himself as he tried to figure out which one he would kill next. "Twelve little maggots crawling on the ground with no one to protect them," he continued to talk as he pointed at each one. "So loud, greedy, selfish, and disgusting," he added. "It would have been so much easier if I just killed them right now," he pointed out to himself as his eyes landed on Gwen. "But then it wouldn't be worth it if they all just died," he continued. "I need to weed them out before finally freeing Duncan from their clutches," he finished before heading back to Duncan's apartment.
Back inside the Fenton house, Vince was in the kitchen with Chris and Chef. The three men were sitting at the kitchen table about to discuss what Chris regarded as an important matter.
"What is it this time McLean?" Vince asked Chris with a very annoyed tone in his voice.
"Well, my producers have seen the first episode of the show…" Chris started.
"How could they have just seen your show when you just finished the first episode less than ten minutes ago?" Vince asked.
"It's a live broadcast," Chris answered. "Anyway, my producers and the viewers loved your nephew when he appeared and they want him a part of the show," he explained to Vince.
"No," Vince denied Chris's request.
"But think about the fame that Danny can gain from being on the show," Chris told Vince. "Everybody wants to have their fifteen minutes of fame," he added.
"Well nobody in this family wants that kind of fame," Vince countered.
"Think of all the money he could be making if he was on the show," Chris tried to win Vince over with that notion.
"You mean all that money that would be wasted on possible medical bills if he were to compete and win any of those suicidal challenges," Vince argued. "Neither Danny, nor Jazz will be signed up for your show McLean, so unless you are willing to risk your face looking like a shredded piece of burger meat, this conversation is over!" he yelled as he got up from the table.
"Have it your way Mr. Fenton, but just so you know you've pretty much just blown that boy's chances at greatness," Chris tried to guilt trip Vince into reconsidering.
"There is no greatness in what you are offering," Vince countered. "Now get the Hell out of my house," he told Chris and Chef.
Chris was tempted to continue arguing but he had to remind himself that Vince was not the kind of person he would win over or intimidate with Chef. That left Chris with no other option but to leave the Fenton home while the cast slept.
Over at Casper High, Danny and Sam were in the hallway getting their books out of their lockers. After spending the night at Sam's house, and sleeping on the floor, Danny had to sneak out of Sam's house in order to avoid getting spotted by Sam's parents. Luckily for Danny, Sam had spare male clothes for him to wear if he were to ever sleep over at her house. However the clothes Sam got him were a little on the dark side as Danny found himself wearing a black T-shirt and black baggy jeans. He also had a black jacket on due to how it was getting colder outside.
"I feel really gloomy," Danny said to Sam after he closed his locker.
"You look fine Danny," Sam told him while enjoying the way her boyfriend looked. "Black suits you," she added.
"I prefer having a bit more color in my choice of clothing Sam," Danny replied. "Besides, Goth is your thing," he added.
"Oh don't worry about it Danny," Sam told Danny. "It's only for today," she assured him before kissing his cheek.
The two lovebirds headed towards their class while holding hands. What they did not know was that Tucker was watching them from a distance. He was watching them and felt remorse for the harm he had caused both Danny and Sam.
From how he tried to kill Danny when he gained ghost powers and abused those powers and when he forced his peers into slave labor when he became Pharaoh. He was somewhat lucky that only a few remembered that one, but the ones that remembered made sure he didn't forget what they did to him. Among those that remembered was Sam, who he had tried to whip because she challenged him when he allowed his ego and lust for power go to his head. Tucker was amazed that Sam never told Danny, and given how powerful Danny had become thanks to his Phantom Driver, Tucker was grateful that she didn't.
Sadly though, Tucker's parents were still worried about what had happened to Tucker after his wish for ghost powers got him on the news as a possessed boy that harmed several other students and attempted to rape a girl. The fact that many of his peers made sure to treat him poorly and ignore him reminded Tucker of how horrible he was during that time. It also didn't help that while those ghost power amplify his rage, Tucker had every intention of having his way with Paulina even if she didn't want it.
He knew that it was wrong to attempt to force himself onto Paulina, but when he had those ghost powers he didn't care. All he thought about was being able to grab a hold of her slim waist, fondle her large breast, to tease her nipples with his fingers, to grope that plump ass of hers, and to bury his dick inside her. He couldn't stop himself, and he didn't want to because Paulina was so hot, as many of the boys in school agreed upon, and he wanted to enjoy her body. He had heard from plenty of the jocks in the boys' locker room that Paulina puts out for a lot of guys in the school, and Tucker wanted to be among those that Paulina puts out for.
But now, he was more considered with how he and his family could move on from the mistakes he had made. The best course of action that Tucker's parents could think of was for them to move out of Amity Park and start anew in another town. At first Tucker didn't want to move but he then realized that he didn't have anything going for him. He tried to become a part of the ghost hunting action when he made the S.K.U.L.K.E.R to help Danny fight ghosts, but that didn't go so well at first when the robot went out of control. Then the two moments where he tried to kill Danny and hurt a lot of people. In the end, Tucker had nothing to keep him tied to Amity Park.
"Life just isn't fair," Tucker muttered to himself as he headed towards his class.
As the day continued on, the students went about their normal routines while also gossiping about a certain topic during lunch. The topic that was being talked about was that the new season of Total Drama was being recorded in Amity Park and how Danny Fenton humiliated Dash Baxter on international TV. When the gossip reached Danny's ears, he couldn't help but bang his head onto the table he and Sam were sitting at because he didn't want the attention. Nearly everyone would look at him and then whispered amongst each other, talking about how Danny beat Dash at the Nasty Burger.
"Why can't they just talk about how they're going to try to get themselves on TV or bug the Hell out of the Total Losers?" Danny complained with his face on the table.
"Oh quit whining Danny," Sam told Danny. "It'll blow over," she assured him.
"You sure?" Danny asked as he lifted his head from the table.
"Positive," Sam answered.
"FENTON!" a loud annoying voice shouted.
Danny and Sam turned to look for the source of the voice and spotted Dash stomping his way towards them.
"I take it back, it may take a while," Sam revised her last statement.
"Gee, thanks Sam," Danny muttered as Dash approached him.
Everyone in the cafeteria stopped what they were doing to see what was about to happen between Danny and Dash. The majority of the popular teens were interested in what may happen because whoever losing in the upcoming fight will end up being the one mocked for quite some time. For some of the lower level A-list members, they were hoping it would be Dash who get humiliated again so that his status as the King of Casper High would be dropped and with that, Dash's popularity. Those in the higher ranks of the A-list were going to judge Dash if he was worth keeping in the A-list depending on the outcome of this fight.
"Do you think Dash will be alright?" Kwan asked Paulina.
"Who cares?" Paulina retorted. "If he can't beat Fenton then he's not A-list material anymore," she told the Asian jock.
"Yeah but isn't Dash your boyfriend?" Kwan asked.
Paulina thought about the question before dismissing it.
"I've given him a couple of blowjobs and fucked him a few times but that was it," Paulina told Kwan. "I'm way too sexy to settle for just one guy," she declared.
Kwan's eyes widened when he heard Paulina say that, he did not expect Casper High's queen bee to openly admit to doing that in public.
'I'm not surprised,' Star thought when she heard Paulina say that. 'Guess Sam was right about how Paulina was such a slut,' she mentally added.
Back at the table Danny and Sam were sitting, Dash picked up Danny and pulled his fist back.
"Hope you enjoy your knuckle sandwich Fenturd!" Dash yelled as he prepared to punch Danny.
Fifteen minutes later Danny and Dash were in the principal's office with a very bruised up Lancer standing beside Principal Ishiyama. The two boys were sitting across the principal's desk with Vince sitting next to Danny and Richard sitting next to his son.
"Thank you both for coming on such short notice Mr. Fenton and Mr. Baxter," Principal Ishiyama stated.
"Of course Mrs. Ishiyama," Richard said while giving his son a stern look. "So what happened this time?" he asked.
"Well as you can see, this is the twentieth fight Dash and Danny have been in and…" the principal started to explain.
Vince didn't pay attention since this has been a fairly normal thing ever since Danny and Dash started high school. Instead Vince's attention was on the injured Lancer as the out of shape teacher had a black eye, a large bandage covering his forehead, and held an ice pack over his nose. Vince leaned towards his nephew for some clarification.
"What the Hell happen to him?" Vince asked Danny.
"He got in the way," Danny answered as if it was a normal occurrence, which given the amount of fights Danny found himself in, it was.
"Mr. Fenton, please pay attention," Ishiyama said to Vince.
"Alright," Vince replied as he listened to the principal continued talking about how the fight happened according to Lancer's testament.
However both Vince and Richard were rolling their eyes when they heard how Danny supposedly jumped Dash during lunch and started the fight. Both men knew that was a lie that was fabricated by either Dash or Lancer.
Eventually the meeting ended with both boys being suspended for three days and Dash was not going to be playing in the upcoming football game. Dash tried to argue against his punishment, but his father stopped him.
Once the meeting had ended, the two men took their boys out of the school and headed towards their respected vehicles.
"I'm sorry that Danny got suspended Vince," Richard told Vince.
"Don't worry about it Rich," Vince waved Richard's apology off. "With these two constantly fighting, I'm surprised they aren't shipped off to boot camp or juvie," he added.
"I'm not sure Danny would deserve such a punishment, but I'm starting to think that boot camp would do Dash some good," Richard said as he glared at his son.
Dash flinched at the look his father was giving him and headed into his dad's car.
"I doubt it," Vince replied. "I've heard that could actually make things worse," he added as he and Danny entered the GAV.
Once on the road, the ride back home was a bit unnerving for Danny. He wasn't worried that he'll be punished, no Danny's concern was due to the people who were left in the house while his uncle picked him up.
"You know Danny, it would be nice if I could be called to your school over something other than you fighting Dash or being framed by Lancer," Vince told his nephew.
"Well so long as Dash and Lancer are there, you'll never get that," Danny pointed out.
"I've noticed," Vince pointed out. "How does that man keep his job anyway?" he asked. "If he's not trying to get you kicked out, he's kissing up to the popular kids in that school," he ranted. "It's like he's trying to make up for a crappy time he had when he was in high school," he added.
"Do you think he was one of those nerdy kids when he was in high school?" Danny wondered.
"Who knows," Vince answered. "Right now I'm more concerned with Chris trying to get you on his show," he told Danny.
"Over his dead body!" Danny yelled out.
"Don't you mean over your dead body?" Vince asked.
"Why would I let him put my corpse on his crappy show?" Danny retorted. "If anyone is going to be filmed on that show of his dead, it should be him," he told his uncle. "And maybe those idiots back in our house," he added.
If only Danny knew that was not that far off.
When nightfall came, the cast of Total Drama Paranormal were back on the streets of Amity Park looking for the Kamen Riders. It was somewhat strange how a couple of them were not concerned over the disappearance of Lindsay and Justin. Regardless the cast continued on like they usually did when on this show.
However, this time Danny was on patrol but this time he had to fly in Zect Mode due to his bike being destroyed.
"Man this sucks," Danny complained. "Whoever heard of a Kamen Rider with no motorcycle?" he continued complaining.
While Danny was patrolling in the air, Spinister was hiding in the shadows looking for his next victim. Spinister asked Duncan to take tonight off while he went on patrol for him. Duncan was at first hesitant because Danny doesn't know about Spinister and that would have led to conflict. But Spinister assured Duncan that he will be in the shadows and that he wouldn't fight Danny.
What Duncan didn't know was that Spinister wasn't interested in finding ghosts, he was after for a few people of the living variety. He had already killed Lindsay and Justin, and now he had his sights on someone from the Suffering Spooks team. He looked down at the Suffering Spooks and noticed Ezekiel sniffing the ground like a dog.
"He was the one that attacked Duncan while in Africa," Spinister said to himself before letting his eyes wonder towards Bridgette. "She's the girlfriend of one of Duncan's friends," he noticed. "But she still treats Duncan poorly," he added. "She'll die soon enough," he decided as he vanished.
Down in the street, the Suffering Spooks were gathered together trying to figure out where they should look for one of the Kamen Riders.
"I'm telling you we should split up," Gwen told Courtney. "We'll cover more ground," she explained.
"And I'm telling you that we should stick together and follow my lead," Courtney argued. "As the only one on this team with CIT training, I have the most experience in tracking," she added.
"Since when does CIT training translate to tracking skills?" Gwen argued. "You always sprout out that CIT crap whenever you want people to pay attention to you," she pointed out.
"Well excuse me for have the necessary leadership skills to carry this team," Courtney argued back.
"You couldn't lead vultures to a dead carcass," Gwen countered. "You always think about using your teammates as your pawns and when you're done with them you toss them aside," she continued. "Just like in season five with that chart," she added before turning away to get as far away from Courtney as possible.
"Wait up girl," LaShawna said to Gwen as she followed after her friend. "Ain't no way you're going off on your own without some watching your back," she told her friend.
"Thanks LaShawna," Gwen said to her friend, feeling really grateful.
"Girl, you know I got your back," LaShawna told Gwen. "Now let's start looking for those ghosts," she added.
Courtney watched the two of them head off and noticed Cody following after Gwen like a love sick puppy.
"Fine!" Courtney screamed. "Go off on your own, we don't need non-team players!" she continued.
"Maybe you should have taken what Gwen said into consideration," Bridgette suggested to Courtney.
"If we listened to Gothie, then we would be the next ones to be on the elimination," Courtney snapped at Bridgette. "Now let's get going, we don't need those three quitters," she added as she headed off in the opposite direction.
"Courtney wait up," Bridgette called out leaving Alejandro with Ezekiel.
"Guess that just leave the two of us amigo," Alejandro said to Ezekiel.
Ezekiel let out a growl at Alejandro.
"What is wrong boy?" Alejandro asked Ezekiel like he was a dog.
Ezekiel didn't listen to Alejandro, instead the feral boy was more focused on what was behind the Latin boy that they couldn't see. But Ezekiel could tell that something was wrong, he just didn't know what.
Suddenly the feral boy noticed the air behind Alejandro start to shimmer. The next thing Ezekiel knew, Alejandro's chest burst open as a blood covered, three clawed hand with two long blades clutched the Latin boy's heart.
Alejandro moved his mouth but didn't say anything as his eyes rolled into the back of his skull. The clawed hand dropped the heart and pulled back slightly before another clawed hand emerged from with Alejandro's chest.
Ezekiel watched in horror as he backed away from Alejandro's body. The feral boy watched as Alejandro's body was being ripped in half vertically as the shimmer behind the body took on the form of a grotesque humanoid spider creature, Spinister. Spinister tossed the two halves aside and stepped on the heart on the ground before making his way towards Ezekiel.
"T-t-t-t-this is so messed up eh," Ezekiel stuttered for what may have been the first time ever since he became feral.
"Well what do you know, you can talk," Spinister mocked the feral boy as he advanced towards him. "Too bad nobody will ever hear you talk ever again," he added as he picked up the boy by his head.
Spinister placed his other hand on Ezekiel's neck and in one swift motion pushed the boy's body down to the ground while holding his head in place. In Spinister's hand was Ezekiel's severed head and blood soaked spine, which he held onto. He was about to go after his next victim, but he stopped to see a cameraman hiding behind a car filming what he did.
The cameraman started to back away when he noticed Spinister looking at him but he was too late as the spider ghost was on top of him. Spinister knocked the camera away and grabbed the man's neck and snapped it.
"Sorry pal, but can't have any more witnesses," Spinister mockingly apologized before stepping on the camera. "This is a private show," he added before heading towards the direction that Bridgette and Courtney took.
As Spinister began to track down Bridgette and Courtney, the two girls were already in front of the town park.
"Courtney, don't you think you were a little hard on Gwen?" Bridgette asked her friend.
"Of course not," Courtney replied as she entered the park. "Gwen simply doesn't understand that I'm trying to lead our team into victory," she added.
"But a team could only win if they work together," Bridgette brought up.
"No, a team can win by listening to their leader," Courtney argued.
"But we never appointed anybody as leader," Bridgette mentioned.
"All of you didn't appoint anyone as leader," Courtney argued. "I decided to take charge and appoint myself as team leader because of my experience as a CIT," she added.
"And how is that working out for you now?" a male voice asked behind Bridgette.
The two girls turned around to see Spinister standing before them. The giant demonic looking spider ghost towered over them, making the girls look very small. Bridgette backed away from the ghost as she was closest to it while Courtney glared at it.
"Who do you think you are sneaking up on us like that!?" Courtney screamed.
"Uh…Courtney," Bridgette stuttered.
"Don't you know who I am!?" Courtney continued to scream while ignoring Bridgette.
"Oh I know who you are Courtney," Spinister answered. "You're a talentless, attention seeking whore who would betray anyone to get ahead in life," he added.
Enraged by what Spinister called her; Courtney tried to tackle Spinister but the ghost simply turned intangible causing her to pass through him.
"And you're a lot stupider than you look," Spinister added.
Bridgette's eyes widened as she realized that this creature was a ghost. She pulled out the Fenton Thermos and pointed it at Spinister, but the massive spider ghost grabbed the thermos and crushed it, rendering her only weapon useless. Spinister looked at Bridgette for a moment before smirking at her.
"I'll deal with you soon enough," Spinister said to Bridgette.
"Don't underestimate me freak!" Courtney screamed as she did a flying side kick towards Spinister.
Spinister, without even looking, turned intangible again allowing Courtney to hit Bridgette. The two girls crashed onto the ground. Courtney got up and pointed her Fenton Thermos at Spinister, but the spider ghost crushed it just like he did with Bridgette's thermos.
"You girls aren't very bright huh?" Spinister mocked them. "But I'll give you two a ten second head start if you start running now," he offered.
"And why would I run from the likes of you?" Courtney argued.
"Ask him," Spinister told Courtney as he revealed Ezekiel's severed head to the girls.
Bridgette screamed in horror at the sight of Ezekiel's head while Courtney didn't seemed fazed.
"Oh please, like that is actually…" Courtney started until Spinister used Ezekiel's head as a flail and smacked her across the face with Ezekiel's head.
Courtney hit the ground due to the amount of force exerted by Spinister's swing. She looked up to see Spinister holding the head like a sock puppet before he kneeled down towards her face.
"Still think my head is fake eh?" Spinister said to Courtney while perfectly mimicking Ezekiel's voice and moving the head's mouth like a puppet.
Courtney started to freak out because when she was hit by Ezekiel's head, she realized that was flesh and bone, not plastic or plaster like she originally thought. Bridgette watched the whole thing and was shaking in terror as Spinister flashed the two girls a smile that a deranged serial killer would smile at his victims.
"You two have ten seconds," Spinister told the girls as he stood up. "Run, run little rabbits," he added in a sadistically playful tone.
Taking Spinister's advice, Courtney and Bridgette ran into the park hoping to get away from the spider ghost. Spinister watched with an amused look on his face before counting down from ten.
"Ten, nine, eight, seven, six…" Spinister counted down before getting bored with the count down. "Oh screw it, zero," he finished as he started looking for the girls.
Inside the park, Bridgette and Courtney were hiding behind a large bush thinking that it would be a good hiding spot. They tried to be as quiet as possible, hoping that Spinister would not spot them. They saw the spider ghost making his way towards where they were and looked around the area. They ducked down, placing themselves lower to the ground in order to lower their chances of being caught.
Spinister looked around the area trying to find the two girls, but didn't seem to find them. He started to head towards the north side of the park much to the girl's relief.
"Good he's gone," Courtney sighed in relief.
"We got to warn the others," Bridgette said to Courtney.
"Are you crazy?" Courtney said to Bridgette. "We need to focus on winning the competition," she added.
"What?" Bridgette replied in shock. "Courtney, that thing killed Ezekiel and is hunting us down," she told the CIT. "Don't you think our lives are more important?" she asked.
"Just because there's some sort of ghost trying to kill us doesn't mean we should chicken out," Courtney argued.
Before Bridgette could say anything Spinister appeared behind both girls and looked down at them.
"Did you two really think I would miss such a simple hiding spot?" Spinister asked them.
Both girls stood up and tried to back away from Spinister. Courtney was behind Bridgette as they backed up. Spinister looked at his prey and was ready to finish them off.
"Take her instead!" Courtney yelled as she pushed Bridgette towards Spinister and made a run for it.
Bridgette let out a short scream as she stumbled forward. She was shocked and angered that her friend would push her towards certain death in order to save herself. This one action also broke Bridgette's heart as she was the only person on the show that still thought of Courtney as a friend. To be betrayed like that made Bridgette see Courtney as someone who never cared about anyone but herself.
Spinister watched Bridgette stumble her way to regaining balance with amusement as the blonde surfer finally came to the realization that Courtney was a selfish creature that literally throw her friends towards the waiting arms of her killer just to save her own neck.
"How tragic," Spinister told Bridgette before he grabbed the girl. "It must really hurt knowing that your friend pushed you towards your death," he added.
"P-p-p-please don't hurt me," Bridgette begged as tears started to form.
"Don't worry, your death will be slow and semi-painless," Spinister told her before pulling her closer to him. "Just so you know, I was thinking of letting you live simply because your boyfriends was my master's friend," he continued to talk. "But you weren't very nice to Duncan, so you'll have to die," he added.
"W-wait, Duncan?" Bridgette questioned but when she opened her mouth that was went Spinister decided to finish her.
Spinister shot out a steady stream of digestive enzymes into Bridgette's mouth. The blonde girl's eyes widened as she tried break free of Spinister's hold, but the ghost spider didn't let go. She tried to close her mouth, but for some unknown reason, her mouth wouldn't move. Bridgette could feel the enzymes flooding her stomach and eat away at her organs. She kept on struggling as the enzymes liquidated her organs until she finally stopped moving.
Spinister lifted up the blonde corpse to examine his latest victim.
"Five out of fourteen in two nights," Spinister noted before placing the corpse over his shoulder. "I'm making good progress," he added before disappearing from the park.
Author's Note: Well that's five cast members down, only nine more to go. Spinister sure has been busy.
I honestly don't have anything to discuss because the alcohol that I drank is starting to affect my brain and because most of the chapter is simply a mix of character build up and character deaths.
I hope everyone had a good Holiday Season and I hope you all have a great New Year.
