Total Drama Insanity

In this chapter, our four remaining campers are going to participate in a challenge based on the final challenges of the last four seasons...you know what ones those are, right?

Of course, I actually didn't foreshadow the challenge that's going to appear in this episode...but I suppose it's not a big deal.

Anyways, let's have fun with some nostalgia!

Chapter 43: Blast From The Past

As with the previous episodes, Blaineley was standing on the Dock Of Shame, ready to recap the events of the previous episode.

"Greetings campers! In the last episode, I made the campers participate in a slasher challenge...what, you want to hear the details? Of course you do. Where do I start? Ah yes...for the challenge, I brought back several of the voted-off campers...five of them to be precise." spoke the hostess.

"Suddenly, a mysterious robed figure grabbed me and disappeared into the forest! And when the campers and the vote-offs went to search for Chef, they found that he had disappeared too! And it looked like he was trying to fight somebody by the looks of things. Heh heh." noted Blaineley.

"As a matter of fact, I instructed Chef to take me away into the forest. It was all part of my plan. And it wasn't just five voteoffs I brought back to the island either! Unbeknowst to the other campers, I decided to bring back yet another camper to the island!" exclaimed the blonde.

"Anyways, after faking my death along with Chef's, I tricked the campers into believing that there was a serial killer on the loose by the name of Samuel Ichor! Heh heh heh heh. In the end, only Dawn was standing against the deranged maniac...but guess what? She won!" bellowed Blaineley.

"It turned out that the serial killer was Gwen the whole time...I instructed her to bring the campers to the camera monitor building so that everyone else would think that they were dead. Heh heh heh. Anyways, there was another bonfire ceremony...Dawn had managed to win immunity and Mike got the boot." spoke the blonde.

"Now there are just four campers left...and one last bonfire ceremony. I'm looking forward to it! Whose going to get voted off at said final bonfire ceremony? Find out in this episode of Total...Drama...Insanity!" exclaimed the hostess.

After the theme song...

Zoey sighed. It appeared that she was going to have to play the game solo from now on. Then again, there were only four campers left.

"What's a girl to do? And to think that I'm an only child..." inquired the indie chick.

"Hello."said a voice.

"Huh? Who's there?" asked Zoey.

"Oh, it's just me...Dawn." answered the moonchild.

"Hey there!" exclaimed the indie chick.

"I guess we've both lost our boyfriends, huh..." noted the girl.

"Yeah..." nodded Zoey. Who would have thought that they would have left the island so fast? Then again, there were only three more challenges before the end of the season.

"Should we make an alliance now?" inquired Dawn.

"Sure..." agreed the indie chick. It seemed like as good as an idea as any, considering that she would probably be able to defeat her at the final challenge.

Then again, Dawn did appear to have some strange powers...but she felt that she would be fine if she was in the final three with her.

"Alright then...who should we vote for?" asked Zoey.

"I haven't decided yet." answered the moonchild.

"OK...I guess we'll try thinking of that after the challenge." noted the indie chick.

"Sounds like a plan." nodded Dawn.

Confessional: The final challenge is fast approaching!

Dawn: Of course, Izzy and Ezekiel still have an alliance too...I'm not sure what we can do about them.

Zoey: Are we going to have to have a tiebreaker? Then again I don't think we've had any of those so far.

Elsewhere, Izzy and Ezekiel were both rather excited to be part of the final four...though admittedly the latter's friend had been eliminated last night.

"Just three more episodes before we have our winner eh." noted the farm boy. It sure was something to look forward to...even if he ended up being voted off before then. Who was going to win the million dollars and fifty cents?

"Uh-huh! I'm hoping it's me!" exclaimed Izzy.

"Er, yeah..." nodded Ezekiel. Of course, Izzy winning the competition would mean him missing out on the million dollars...but he could allow her to dream, now could he?

"What are you going to spend it on if you win the show eh?" he inquired curiously.

"I'll spend it on bail! The RMCP keep wanting to catch me...maybe I could try bribing them?" noted Izzy.

"OK..." nodded the farm boy. Oddly enough he had heard about the redhead's enormous criminal record, and wondered if even a million dollars would be enough to keep her out of prison.

Then again, considering that she was probably legally insane, she would probably end up getting sent to an asylum instead.

"What would you spend the money on?" inquired Izzy.

"I'm not quite sure yet eh...getting this far in the competition is kind of a...new experience for me eh." noted Ezekiel.

"Maybe you could spend it to get some chainsaws!" exclaimed the redhead.

"OK...maybe I could do that..." answered the farm boy sheepishly. Personally he felt he already had all the chainsaws he could ever need back home. Then again, he also happened to have a wood chipper.

"Million dollars, here we come!" bellowed Izzy.

"Yeah...here we come eh." nodded Ezekiel.

Confessional: Who do you think will win the million dollars?

Ezekiel: *he is thinking of what he can spend the money on* Hmm...

Izzy: Izzy can win this! She knows it!

Now let's check on Blaineley and Chef...

As it turned out, Blaineley was very excited for the finale of Total Drama Insanity. Chef, considering that she had apparently gone crazy with power, not so much.

"Just three more episodes before my paycheck comes in...I can't wait for it!" exclaimed Blaineley.

"Yeah, I bet you can't wait." noted Chef. Personally he was starting to wish that he was paid as much as she was.

"Personally I wish that I could be paid a million dollars like one of the campers on this show...but since I get to torment them I guess it makes up for it." noted the hostess.

"Do we really have to keep tormenting them? They have feelings, you know." pointed Chef Hatchet.

"C'mon! It's just for three more episodes!" answered Blaineley.

"Just three more episodes? You're going to reprise your role as the hostess after this season is over, am I right?" asked the cook.

Personally he wouldn't be surprised if that were the case, considering that Total Drama was fairly likely to be renewed for a sixth season if it made enough money.

"Why, of course I am! How could I quit such a wonderful job?" inquired the hostess.

"I don't know Blaineley...you've already tormented the campers enough as it is...you even eliminated Lindsay from the show simply because she figured out what your actual name was." pointed out Chef.

"Speak of it to no-one!" yelled the blonde.

"OK then...Mildred." answered the cook.

"Ugh!" bellowed Blaineley.

Confessional: Let's hope Blaineley gets what's coming to her...just like Chris did.

Blaineley: This challenge is going to be intense! Four will enter, only one will survive! Or win immunity, rather.

Chef: That does it, I'm calling the producer of this show. He'll straighten Blaineley out.

A few minutes later...

Immediately, Blaineley gathered the four remaining campers for the challenge. But before she did so, she had a favor to ask from them.

"Right then...before we begin, why don't you tell the audience how happy you all are to be part of the final four, shall we? I'm shocked that you've all made it this far personally." noted the hostess.

"Didn't we already do this in the last episode? You know, the one with the insane serial killer?" inquired Dawn.

"Yes, but guess what? We're doing it again! How about that!" exclaimed the hostess.

"It's not like we have to use the confessional every single episode eh." noted Ezekiel.

"There's nothing stopping you from entering it again, is there?" inquired Blaineley.

"Well, no, but-"

"C'mon! I insist!" demanded the hostess.

The campers shrugged and decided to listen to Blaineley. Apparently there's wasn't any reasoning with her.

"Three episodes before the end of the season...three episodes before the end of the season." murmured Zoey.

"I'm starting to wonder if three episodes is too much." noted Dawn. How many episodes had it been now? She knew that it had been a least a dozen considering all the bonfire ceremonies she had attended...then again, she hadn't exactly attended every single one of them.

"Yeah...did Blaineley name this season Total Drama Insanity because she wanted us all to go insane eh?" inquired Ezekiel.

"Maybe..." nodded Zoey.

"Let's go make our confessionals!" exclaimed Izzy.

"We might as well." nodded Dawn.

Confessional: Here's the final four! You can thank tate310 for this one.

Dawn: *she sighs, then looks at the camera* I'm glad I'm part of the final four...but with B gone I'm feeling kind of lonely. Then again, that explains why my aura is currently a dark blue.

Izzy: Whoo! Izzy made it to the final four! Now Izzy's ready to win this game once and for all!

Zoey: Well, I'm rather upset that Mike couldn't be here with me...but I made it to the final four at least. I think I might be able to win this time.

Ezekiel: Yeah! For the first time in ages, I'm in the final four, eh! I'm so ready to win this for the sake of my friends I made. I just want to apologize to the girls I harshed during the first season, *pauses* except maybe Heather, eh. I don't think anyone likes her.

"So, are you done making your little celebration confessional?" inquired Blaineley.

"Yes, we are. Again, I don't really see why we had to make a final four confessional when we made a final five confessional yesterday..." noted Zoey.

"Hey! You're not the one running this show, I am! Now then, let me explain the next challenge shall we?" inquired Blaineley.

"Are we going to have to play a game of SAW?" asked Dawn.

"Tempting, but no. I decided that since there are four of you...and this is the fifth season of Total Drama...I'll be taking you back to the past!" exclaimed the hostess.

"The past?" inquired Ezekiel. Did Blaineley find a way to facilitate time travel?

"I don't get it...what is this challenge about?" inquired Zoey.

"I was getting to that!" exclaimed the hostess. "You see, I based this challenge off of the final challenges of each of the four previous seasons..."

"You mean like the one during Revenge Of The Island? That sure was exciting to watch." noted Dawn.

"Yeah...during that challenge we got to watch Scott in the trauma chair...though admittedly I thought it was funny back then...I actually feel a little sorry for him now." spoke Zoey.

"It's Scott? Who cares?" inquired Blaineley.

"Apparently you don't." noted the moonchild.

"Wasn't he the one who got you eliminated last season?" asked the hostess.

"Well yeah, but..."

"Then I'm sure you'll be happy to see him suffer. Then again, he only lasted two episodes this season. Heh heh." acknowledged Blaineley.

"Right then...for your first challenge, you're all going to be competing in a race! The winner will get an advantage during the next challenge...since you know, if I eliminated a camper during this one it would leave only one camper by the Revenge Of The Island challenge, heh heh." explained the hostess.

Confessional: How Owen managed to win that challenge, the world may never know.

Ezekiel: I bet Gwen felt rather cheated when Owen managed to win that one at the last second eh. Then again he did give up the prize money for a chance to win a million...

Izzy: Yay! Izzy loves races! This challenge is going to be epic!

Dawn: How did Scott recover from the trauma chair anyway? Granted, he is a cartoon character just like the rest of us but-there I go again, breaking the fourth wall. This season must be getting to me...

Zoey: Funny, if Lightning had chosen Cameron to take the Hurl Of Shame, I would have been able to compete in the final challenge...why exactly did he send me flying, anyway? Did he not like my Psycho persona?

"Oh, and just for the record...despite this being based on the final challenges of the four previous seasons...I'm not bringing back any of the campers for this episode to cheer you guys on. I already did that last time during that slasher challenge, you know." noted Blaineley.

"Oh yeah..." nodded Zoey. Oddly enough, Mike actually joined said voted off campers after the episode was over. Personally she was starting to feel a bit jealous of Dawn. Then again, she had to endure quite a bit in order to win. Who would have thought that she was so brave?

"Anyways, for this challenge, I'm going to dress you up as farm animals!" exclaimed the hostess.

"What?" inquired Zoey.

"Well, I'm going to make you wear hats that make you loosely resemble farm animals, anyway...Zoey, you get to wear the chicken hat." said Blaineley.

Immediately, Chef handed Zoey a chicken hat.

"Do you think I'm a coward?" inquired the hostess.

"Actually, I think Ezekiel is a coward. That's why he gets to wear the cow hat! Hahaha!" bellowed Blaineley.

"Very funny, Blaineley." answered Ezekiel as Chef handed him the cow hat.

"Dawn, since apparently your brain is made of wool, you get to wear the sheep hat." explained Blaineley.

Immediately, Chef handed Dawn a sheep hat.

"My brain is not made of wool!" bellowed the moonchild.

"Uh-huh, sure." answered the hostess.

"Izzy, since you're insane, and since you once hooked up with Owen, you get to wear the pig hat!" exclaimed Blaineley.

"Hooray!" bellowed Izzy as Chef handed her the pig hat.

Confessional: This is not the very last episode. Really!

Zoey: I'm not a chicken! I stood up to Scott, didn't I?

Dawn: At least this hat feels warm and fluffy...maybe Blaineley will let me keep the hat if I win?

Ezekiel: The voted-off campers aren't going to show up during the challenge? Aww, I was hoping somebody would make me some brownies eh.

Izzy: Izzy's got this challenge in the bag!

"Right then, for the first part of this challenge, you all have to climb up these flagpoles. Try not to wedgie yourselves while you're at it, will you?" inquired Blaineley.

The campers immediately gulped. That did not sound like a fun experience at all.

"Good thing Izzy isn't wearing underwear today!" exclaimed Izzy.

"What?!" bellowed Ezekiel.

"On your marks, get set, go!" exclaimed the hostess.

Immediately, the campers began to climb up the flagpoles. Curiously enough, each of them seemed to represent the four previous seasons of the show...as each of the flagpoles had a different colored flag only with a picture.

Specifically, The original Total Drama Island flag was yellow and had a picture of an island on it, the Total Drama Action flag was red and had a picture of a movie camera marker, the Total Drama World Tour was blue and had a picture of an airplane on it, and the Revenge Of The Island flag was green and had a picture of Fang The Shark on it.

"Huh, I guess this really is a past challenge, eh." noted Ezekiel.

"I can't believe Blaineley's making us compete in four different challenges at once...this is going to be grueling." noted Zoey.

"I'm afraid so! I personally wonder if we're even going to be able to walk after this challenge is over." noted Dawn.

"Don't worry about Izzy! She'll be fine!" bellowed the redhead.

"I hope so eh." nodded Ezekiel.

Eventually, Izzy was the first one to reach the top of the flagpole.

"Alright! When's the next part of the challenge?" inquired the redhead.

"It's right over there at that balance...try not to fall into the water below, will you?" asked Blaineley.

"Are there sharks below?" asked Izzy curiously.

"Just one...but guess what? It happens to be Fang the Shark! I brought him back just for the challenge." said the hostess.

Zoey, Ezekiel, and Dawn gulped upon hearing this. Sure enough, the three remaining campers had successfully managed to climb up the flagpoles.

"Ah, there you are! Off to the balance you go." spoke Blaineley.

"This is going to be awful..." thought Zoey.

Confessional: Fang the Shark? That is just overkill.

Zoey: Fang the Shark? Is Blaineley trying to get us killed? Then again he only seemed interested in attacking Scott.

Dawn: Maybe I should start writing my will...I might not make it out of this alive.

Ezekiel: Fang the Shark? I'm not sure who he is...but he doesn't sound like a guy I would like to meet eh.

Izzy: Izzy loves sharks! Too bad Fang the Shark probably isn't going to like me...

"Right then...cross the wooden plank for me, will you?" inquired Blaineley.

"Do we have to carry an eagle's egg across it eh?" asked Ezekiel.

"I couldn't be bothered with getting four of them. Now cross the balance already!" demanded the hostess.

The campers reluctantly nodded as they began to outstretch their arms. It surely wasn't going to be a pleasant surprise if they fell.

"The water wouldn't happen to be shallow...would it?" asked Zoey.

"Jumping into shallow water wouldn't hurt a cartoon character, don't be silly." answered the hostess.

"This isn't funny, Blaineley. Don't break the fourth wall eh! We're not in the mood for it!" exclaimed Ezekiel.

Suddenly, Dawn lost her balance and fell off the plank.

"Whoa!" bellowed the moonchild.

"Dawn!" screamed Zoey.

"Oh dear...looks like she lost her balance. Oh well, that's one less camper competing in Total Drama." explained Blaineley.

"You are so sued." answered the indie chick.

Fortunately for Dawn, since they both had a grudge against Scott, Fang the Shark agreed to let her go if she told him where he was hidden. And yes, due to her magical powers and all that, she could communicate with sharks.

"I believe he's at the Playas Des Losers...why?" inquired the moonchild.

Fang the Shark nodded, and immediately swam towards the Playa. Dawn let out a sigh of relief.

"Darn it! I was hoping that she'd be shark food!" bellowed Blaineley.

Suddenly, she found herself being slapped in the face. Really hard.

"Ow!" bellowed the hostess.

"That's for harming my friends!" screamed the indie chick.

Confessional: Dawn is alright...though I doubt Scott will be in a few minutes.

Dawn: That was close...too close.

Ezekiel: For a second there I was worried that Dawn was going to end up like Cody eh...she really dodged a bullet.

Zoey: Already I'm starting to hate this challenge...that's a new record!

Izzy: Scott is going to be in so much trouble!

Fang the Shark: *he is holding out a knife and a fork* Feast time!

Blaineley: *she is rubbing her face* Gee, maybe I should disqualify Zoey...that'll teach her to assault a game show host!

Fortunately for Zoey's sanity, the last challenge was rather safe and did not involve killer sharks at any kind. All they had to do was cross a finish line.

Suffice to say, Blaineley was feeling rather disappointing.

"C'mon! Can't we have them get chased by a freaking boulder or something?" inquired the hostess.

"Dawn could have been killed! Isn't that enough for you?" asked Chef.

"Nobody dies on this show! Don't be silly!" exclaimed Blaineley.

"You had best try to keep it that way." warned the cook.

Immediately, the campers began to run across the finish line...unfortunately for Dawn, due to her unfortunate mishap on the balance, she was significantly behind.

However, she was able to get past Ezekiel...

...before Izzy crossed the finish line.

"Yes! Yes!" bellowed the redhead.

"Congratulations, Izzy, you get the advantage during the next part of the challenge...which naturally will be based off the final challenge of Total Drama Action." explained Blaineley.

"Is it going to be horribly unsafe?" asked Zoey curiously.

"It might be, it might not. Heh heh. Don't ask me." answered the hostess.

The redhead immediately scowled. If anyone of the campers got horribly injured, Blaineley was going to be in for it.

Suddenly, she began to hear loud screaming that appeared to be coming from the Playas Des Losers. Apparently, Fang the Shark had located Scott. Of course, he was able to smell things from a mile away.

"Well, that's one camper I wouldn't mind seeing injured." noted the redhead.

Confessional: Lights, camera, action!

Izzy: Yes! Izzy is going to win this!

Dawn: Am I going to have to encounter Fang the Shark again? Maybe I should get a harpoon.

Ezekiel: Are we going to have to have a tiebreaker for the Total Drama Action challenge? I recall there was a tie eh.

Zoey: Total Drama Action? Funny, I never really liked that season too much.

Immediately, the campers stood next to Blaineley so that she could explain the next part of the challenge.

"Can we take off these hats now? They make us look funny..." noted Dawn.

"As a matter of fact, yes you can." nodded Blaineley.

The campers immediately took off their hats and handed them to Chef, who stuffed them inside a conveniently-located bin.

"You sure like making the audience laugh at us, don't you?" asked Zoey.

"As a matter of fact, I sure do!" exclaimed Blaineley.

"Why did we sign up to be on national television?" inquired the moonchild.

"Izzy, since you win immunity, you can just go ahead and search for the treasure...the first three campers to find their treasure move on to the World Tour challenge...of course, you probably already know what's going to happen to the camper that finishes last..." noted the hostess.

"Yes!" cheered Izzy.

"As for the rest of you...guess what? You get to participate in one of the nastiest challenges in Total Drama history! You have to clean...the confessional! Hahahaha!" laughed Blaineley.

Dawn, Zoey, and Ezekiel groaned. This part of the challenge certainly wasn't going to be fun...but at least it wasn't going to be dangerous.

Still, they didn't exactly look forward to cleaning something that hadn't been cleaned for four entire seasons. Indeed, there appeared to be flies buzzing around it.

Immediately, Blaineley handed them some gloves along with some wipes.

"Get to work!" demanded the hostess.

Confessional: Why didn't Blaineley do this sooner?

Zoey: Ugh...this is going to take forever.

Dawn: Funny, I've always been an enviromentalist...is Blaineley going to make us clean up the island next?

Ezekiel: Scrub scrub scrub scrub scrub...ugh.

Reluctantly, the campers began to clean the confessional. They had to admit, it was looking fairly nasty.

As it turned out, it smelled even worse. The campers immediately began to gag and cover their noses.

"Why did we even bring ourselves to use this confessional anyway? It smells awful! Maybe we should get some nosepegs." asked Zoey.

"I don't know eh...then again we only used it for a few seconds at a time. I never actually used it very much, being the first contestant voted off in Total Drama and all." noted Ezekiel.

"Is this even really a challenge? Or did Blaineley simply decide to give us a chore? I'm not sure which." spoke Dawn.

"Heh heh heh..." thought Blaineley. Interestingly enough, she had originally planned for Chef to do so...but she thought it would be hilarious for the campers to do the job instead.

Eventually, the campers were able to finish the job. They all let out a sigh of relief.

"OK, I think we're done, Blaineley." answered Zoey.

"Alright then...go climb up that greasy flagpoles for me, will you? Try not to slip!" warned Blaineley.

The campers reluctantly nodded. There simply wasn't any disobeying the hostess on this show, it seemed.

"Wait, didn't we already do this challenge?" asked Dawn.

"Well, we're doing it again! Get over it!" demanded Blaineley.

Naturally, the flagpoles were very slippery, and the campers were having a very hard time getting to the top.

"Aaugh!" bellowed Ezekiel as he fell to the bottom.

"Well, this challenge is going to take us a while." noted Zoey.

The Squeaky-Clean New Confessional: Hooray! The confessional is just like new!

Dawn: It feels kind of funny entering the confessional after we had just cleaned it...but I think it's actually sparkling now. Interesting.

Zoey: Well, I think our hard work paid off. At least I think so anyway.

Ezekiel: Why didn't Chris bother cleaning this thing himself? I guess he was just too lazy eh.

"Guess what campers! It's time for a commercial break!" bellowed Blaineley.

"What? But we were just about to get to the top of the flagpoles!" exclaimed Zoey.

"Well, too bad!" answered the hostess.

"Aww..." complained Dawn as she reluctantly slid down the flagpole.

"Right then...it looks like the campers have learned what the finalists in Total Drama Island felt when they were doing this challenge...well, guess what? They're going to be experiencing the rest of the Total Drama Action challenge too! Along with the Total Drama World Tour challenge! Not to mention the Total Drama Revenge Of The Island challenge...how about that." spoke the hostess.

"It's not exactly bringing back good memories eh..." noted Ezekiel. As always, the challenges were fairly sadistic.

"It isn't? Too bad! You still have three challenges to go!" bellowed Blaineley.

"I don't look forward to any one of them." noted Zoey.

"Whatever! At least Izzy seems rather happy about it." noted the hostess.

"That's because she gained an advantage." explained Dawn.

"Well, she'll gain an advantage if she manages to win this challenge too! How about that!" exclaimed the blonde.

"Yeah..." noted Zoey.

"Anyways, I'll be seeing you after the commercial break. Have fun until then! I'll be off shopping." explained Blaineley.

"I don't think there are any shops in Wawanakwa eh." noted Ezekiel.

"Well, I just installed a new vending machine! I can spend my hard-earned cash on that!" bellowed the hostess.

"OK..." answered Zoey.

"See you later!" exclaimed Blaineley.

Well, it looks like the campers have gone back in time...well, not technically. But they are going through a rather "nostalgic" challenge...this just might be the most intense challenge yet.

In the next chapter, one of the campers will be winning immunity, and another camper will be voted off...of course you probably know that already. Am I simply stating the obvious?
