Review Responding Time!
Cecebeec- As the kids put it, this chapter slaps! So much going on between Dawn and Zoey knowing Mal, Ella's love finally being reciprocated, and even some Leonard soul searching! This was a great chapter!
Me- Thanks!
Gman5846- I'm surprised that there was another love triangle.
Too bad for Rodney & Leonard..
Me- Expect the Unexpected
I try to give screentime to characters who never get any, But Rodney or Leonard making the final 5 would be unrealistic.
AnonBrowser- Hooray for both Leonard and Rodney getting eliminated! I never liked either of them and these guys are my two least favorite Pahkitew males. Both are rather annoying, are centered around gags that quickly get old, have ridiculous delusions, and are pretty much useless in challenges (aside from the latter having physical strength to sometimes come in handy). They were unquestionably the least helpful members overall of their respective teams at this point in your fic here, especially when the former got a broken arm (though I give props for his character development when trying to move past wizardry delusions). neither could ever realistically reach the merge anyway.
I previously had a feeling you'd consciously axe Dave in all three of the same canon episodes as DJ (based on the first two installments of your AU), and that would've felt too repetitive, so it's nice to see I was wrong. It was welcome change of pace to not see him get booted here like the highest ranking Team Victory member even though it was obvious he'd be in the bottom 2 with the one who hates his guts. Having two teams vote someone off here as they did with Team Magical was a unique touch that I haven't seen for any reimagining of this season before. In fact, the only other time I saw that take place was in a rewrite of the first season. I also am glad not to see an entire team wiped out before the second aftermath like the actual season 3 did; that was one of my biggest qualms with TDWT (and same with Gwen's team godplaying to the point where she was its only member to get ousted pre-merge along). Here's hoping at least two members of each team reach the merge here (something I wish canon did instead of only one Amazon gone and all of Team Victory ousted).
Speaking of the germaphobe, I do commend his altruistic attmept to rescuing Ella from the eels. If he hadn't already redeemed his reputation within this universe, then that noble act clinches it as far as I'm concerned. Definitely someone I find more likeable here than in canon either way. Now I have a clear answer for what redemption arc you had in mind for him following your second season.
It's good to have confirmation that they're officially a couple. She's wanted that ever since their first season together and earned it. Their first kiss was worth waiting for and one upside of having to stay in the infirmary was a chance to privately make out (such pent up passion was bound to come out at some point). Of all the stories I've read so far that have Della (Dave x Ella) as a pairing, this hands down has the most realistic setup and was built up more naturally and gradually when (in contrast to other fics I saw) the guy has enough time to first regain sanity and heal from heartbreak over things not working out with Sky. He also got closure with the gymnast earlier in your story here and they thankfully could end their last discussion on civil terms (unlike what that TDPI fiasco between them entailed) even if not as friends. Good thing his interests didn't just abruptly shift towards our princess as soon as that Yukon chat ended. I'm grateful that you didn't rush Della development like other people have within one-shots.
I also have to admit you intially had me worried once the Snow White lookalike first brought up the idea of trying to make him jealous so he'd confess his true feelings, thinking that would involve hugs, kisses, and flirtatious/loving comments towards one of tonight's losers. Good thing it only involved sitting near the farm boy and spending some time together. That's not nearly as bad as trying to get his hopes up for nothing with physical affection or insincere compliments when her heart was set on someone else (although she did lie about being a couple when the object of their desires asked behind his back about what was happening with the Rodster). While I understand becoming upset upon learning the truth and getting discouraged/frustrated over how his feelings for girls (including her) have been one-sided, he went over-the-top with taking out his bitterness and spite on them, which most likely contributed to getting eliminated in this chapter. No surprise that Rodney quickly moved on when seeing other girls after leaving the plane.
On another note, it's a good thing Dawn could find out the truth about how Mike hasn't been in control lately and explain things to Zoey (and this seems to have calmed her down upon realizing that the evil persona was the one who initiated that breakup as they headed to Paris), even if neither can identify Mal by name yet and the latter's badass Commando side hasn't fully subsided at the moment. Quite predictable that the aura-whisperer of all people could expose this. She better watch out for retaliation! I do hope the main man can regain control sooner rather than later. Regardless of when that happens, it should be easier to make amends with the one he loves since she now knows about his unfortunate situation.
However long it might take for next chapter's aftermath to get posted, here are my questions for the interviewees:
Jo: How does it feel to be the lowest ranking member of your team this season?
Topher: Do you wish you focused more on the competiton during your last challenge?
Leonard: What do you plan on doing in the future that doesn't involve wizardry?
Rodney: Of all the girls you met in Jamaica after getting voted off, is there a specific one you like or liked the most?
Me- I never noticed the DJ-Dave elimination thing until I did it in Action and someone pointed it out. When I was writing Action it just felt like it was Dave's time to go and I eliminated him the same episode DJ was. But when it came to last chapter, Dave had more plot than Rodney so he was gonna stay.
That was my attempt of writing Dave eerily similar to canon but then adding in a redemption arc. Which I feel like they could do if Total Drama ever gets another season.
Ella's fake flirting with Rodney wasn't gonna be too much, just enough to make Dave jealous.
Thanks for the questions!
OmniUIShaggyOverexaggerated- So Jerd herd arrested after all. Go figure. I'm glad that Rodney and Dave parted on better terms, though not before the former threatens the latter with pain should he ever break Ella's heart in a bad way, since it's clear Dave and Ella love each other, as shown with them sharing a kiss in this chapter. Though Dave and Ella had to form an alliance with Lightning that mostly benefits the Overachiever's set conditions. Should have seen Rodney's elimination coming, since it was too obvious. Leonard also gets axed due to the injury he received. Dawn and Commando Zoey know Mal is impersonating Mike, who is trapped in his own mind with his other personalities, and Mal intends to get rid of Dawn when given the chance while messing around with Commando Zoey by confusing her between himself and Mike. Georgia and Mal seem to be at odds here. I wonder if that'll change. As for the questions I'd like to ask the contestants, they are as follows:
Jo: It says a lot when you get eliminated before Lightning, which isn't surprising considering your short fuse and temper. He may be an idiot at times, but Lightning is no colossal idiot, though he can be a huge jerk, though that's more attributed to the fact that he lives up to his father's expectations, so I'm inclined to believe he's actually a good person at heart unless someone messes with him. Anywho, back to my main point. Why do you always feel the need to lead others when more often than not, you suck as a leader due to your lack of empathy towards your teammates? Why the need to degrade, insult or mock others when they don't meet your standards, considering each person has a different standard to begin with, with a unique trait, personality, characteristic, behavior and attitude?
Topher: There is a saying, Topher. Excessive Drama equals Mental Trauma, or in this case, Total Drama equals Total Trauma. In the 3rd and current season of Total Drama, Chris McClean has become more malicious and sadistic than he was in Total Drama Island and Total Drama Action. And I'm certain that the Producers have a hand in this, even if I have no proof, though I don't need any to reach that conclusion, with the way Chris addresses them implies a hint of fear.
The world of TV Hosting is a cruel world. It will pick you up, chew you up and spit you back out when you show no more promise. After saying this, do you still want to become a TV Host like Chris McClean, Topher?
Because that kind of life changes you, and not for the better. So wouldn't your time have been better spent if you simply focused on the game like everyone else.
Rodney: Rejection hurts a lot, Rodney. I should know. I faced my fair share of rejection, though I took it in good stride after the first one, since I know one day, I might meet the one girl meant for me. The ones in Total Drama rejected you, not that I hold it against them since whether you believe it or not, Rodney, you do come off as delusional when you confess your feelings for one girl, then it shifts to another girl, and that creates a load of problems. Then there's the love triangle that took place this season between Dave, Ella and yourself, which should not have happened to begin with, but hey, Total Drama aims for nothing less. But it's not the end of the world for you, for the right girl is still waiting you, yet she doesn't know it, and neither do you. That's how love works, my gigantic friend. Patience is the key, for patience is a virtue and good things come for those who wait. Saying all that, what kind of girl do you really want to be with, Rodney?
Leonard: I admire your confidence, Leonard. Even if I find your obsession over magic a bit overbearing, I can see why you'd believe such a thing exist when others are quick to dismiss it. If you believe in the impossible, anything is possible. But tell me, now that you've somewhat mellowed out of that LARper personality a bit, what other possibilities are you looking forward to explore in life beside being a wizard that is?
Me- Jerd's behind bars.
Thanks for the questions.
DiegoBendo- Great chapter as usual.
This is pretty solid stuff, Dave and Leonard showing character growth, Georgia and Mal up to no good, Zoey coming to her senses, Beardo and Sky having a good dynamic it's overall just really good.
After the bloodbath that was the last chapter this was a needed breather, keep up the good work!
Me- Thanks!
I'm glad you're enjoying the character growth. I try not to do the Max thing every chapter because then I feel like it'd get old.
Guest- Shit's getting spicy on Team Magical. Another great chapter bites the dust. Anyway, onto my aftermath questions:
Jo: How does it feel that you have the lowest placement out of you, Lightning, and Brick?
Topher: How's your cat Chef doing?
Leonard: What do you plan on doing with your life now that you know you're not a wizard?
Rodney: How does it feel to lose your "dream girl" to Dave?
Me- Thanks I'm glad you liked the chapter!
The aftermath theme song played as D shot through the screen.
Jo growled in anger and then glared at Lightning.
" I'M NOT A DUDE!" Jo screamed at the top of her lungs
She tackled Lightning off of his platform, as they both hit the ground she began to punch him.
Another D shot through the screen
Chef picked up Topher and walked over to the exit door.
" Um.. Chef what are you doing? I said take Chris away not me!" Topher said
" I'm sorry Topher but there's been a change in plans." Chris said imitating the producer voice from earlier
" What?.." Topher said losing all hope in his voice
Another D shot through the screen
The rest of Team Magical went to check up on Leonard.
" Are you okay mate?" Jasmine asked
" I think my arm is broken but I'll walk it off." Leonard said as he slowly got up
A loud cracking sound was heard and Leonard quickly fell down.
" Someone call 9-1-1." Leonard said in a serious tone
A final D shot through the screen
" Great the last thing I get to see before I die is the woman I loved make out with another man." Rodney said bitterly
Dave and Ella were about to kiss but stopped after Rodney made his comment.
"Well this is awkward." Dave said
" You stole her from me!" Rodney said as he began to tear up
~ Aftermath Studio: Main Stage~
The two aftermath hosts stood in front of the studio with a giant teleprompter hanging behind them. They were dressed for the occasion wearing a tuxedo and pink dress respectively.
" Welcome back everybody! I'm Dakota and this is my wonderful co-host Sam!" Dakota said
"And were coming to you live because we need your help. To raise for money for a seriously worthy cause." Sam said
" I know your probably confused right now but think back to the last episode. When the Total Drama Jumbo Jet crashed in Jamaica." Sam said
" Yeah and then like the guy that was loaning Chris money got arrested." Dakota said
"Unless we raise enough dough our friends could be stranded in Jamaica... forever." Sam said
"Total Drama could be cancelled!.. Which I guess we would be canceled too since were the Aftermath." Dakota said
" I need this job.. The Playstation 5 is coming out soon and I need the money." Sam said
"Tonight were bringing you, Total Drama the Telethon!" Dakota said
" The phonelines are open so for the love of Total Drama please call!" Sam said
" Were about to do a song so we hired Brick, Scott, and Shawn to play instruments." Sam said
The camera panned over to the three guys and Sasquatchanakwa.
" Alright guys just like we rehearsed!" Brick said
" I don't know how I got roped into this.." Scott said looking ashamed
Music began to play as Dakota and Sam stood up.
" This show you need to save, this show you gotta tell that you caaarreee." Dakota sang
" Jamaica there trapped down in, Jamaica they can't even.. play videogames. It's so unfair.." Sam sang
" You gotta help now were on the brink." Dakota sang
" The crew gets fired if this ship sinks." Sam sang
"So make a difference in their lives." Dakota sang
"Give us cash or this show dies." Sam/ Dakota sang
"Save this show.." Dakota sang
"Total Drama!" Sam sang
"Save this show.." Dakota sang
" You know you wanna!" Sam sang
"Save the show with love and $500,000 dollars!" Sam/ Dakota sang
As the song ended, Blaineley walked out onto the main stage.
"That's right you need to give us $500,00 dollars in the next half hour. Hi I'm Blaineley Staci Andrews O'Holloran and I'm your co-host." Blaineley said
" I thought the producers let her go?" Sam asked his girlfriend
" Apparently she got fired from Celebrity Manhunt and she really needs this job." Dakota said
" I need this job? This aftermath needs me! I was the main one dishing dirt last time and the ratings show it." Blaineley said as she sat down next to Dakota and Sam
" I'll keep you posted on the news as your cash and calls come in. We even have gifts!" Blaineley said
" For a donation of $25 dollars you'll get all the total drama go go candied fish tails you can eat!" Sam said
"And for $50 bucks you'll get a commemorative total drama t-shirt. Sure it looks like a plain shirt but watch what happens when you get it wet." Dakota said
Dakota took out one of the t-shirts. She then poured water on it and it shrunk. A call came in and Sammy answered it.
" It's Topher and he says he wants two total drama t-shirts." Sammy said
" Well isn't that a great way to introduce our first guest? He's a narcissist, looks up to Chris and has a cat named Chef! It's Topher everyone!" Blaineley said
Topher walked out onto the stage and scooped up a couple of total drama t-shirts.
" Ha yes! I got first dibs on the t-shirts! Take that Sierra!" Topher said
Topher put on the t-shirt as he sat down.
"Topher why don't you tell the audience the gift you brought them?" Sam asked
...
"We were supposed to bring gifts?" Topher asked
Sam groaned as he rolled his eyes.
"We sent you an email about this a week ago." Sam said
" I'm not thirty years old! I don't really check my email!" Topher retorted
"You gotta have something man.." Sam said
Topher dug through his pockets and pulled out a bottle of cologne.
"If you want Topher's expensive bottle of cologne then call the number and you can have it for a measly $50 dollars!" Dakota said
Dakota and Sam saw the Peanut Gallery busy with their phones.
" I guess people really like cologne." Sam said
" Yeah Cameron is calling his mom, Anne Maria is talking to one of her friends and Scarlett is talking to Max." Blaineley said
" Which means our new fundraiser total is $203 dollars! And $200 dollars came from Cameron promising his Mom he'll start wearing his diapers again." Blaineley said
"T-The greatest achievements require the greatest sacrifices." Cameron said as he blushed in embarrassment
"Extortion? Nice one Cam! But it'll take more than that to get where we need to be! So I think it's time we had our guest answer some questions." Sam said
" Being on the receiving end of this is sooo boring. Can't we play Truth or Hammer?" Topher asked
" We had that dismantled." Sam said
" Noooo! That was the best part, You've ruined the aftermath!" Topher said dramatically
" I think well do just fine Toph. Anon Browser asks "When you were an aftermath host last season, do you find it odd to now have the roles reversed with somebody interviewing you instead?" Sam asked
" Yeah it does feel pretty weird but these new hosts aren't even doing their job right! No Truth or Hammer! No intense questioning! What kind of aftermath is this?!" Topher said
"Actually Topher since we've taken over the ratings for the Aftermath have skyrocketed." Dakota said
" What? That can't be true..." Topher said
" Numbers don't lie." Dakota said
Topher pouted in his seat as he was upset by this news. Sam awkwardly tried to fit in another question.
" Our next question is from OmniUIShaggyOverexaggerated " There is a saying, Topher. Excessive Drama equals Mental Trauma, or in this case, Total Drama equals Total Trauma. In the 3rd and current season of Total Drama, Chris McClean has become more malicious and sadistic than he was in Total Drama Island and Total Drama Action.
And I'm certain that the Producers have a hand in this, even if I have no proof, though I don't need any to reach that conclusion, with the way Chris addresses them implies a hint of fear.
The world of TV Hosting is a cruel world. It will pick you up, chew you up and spit you back out when you show no more promise. After saying this, do you still want to become a TV Host like Chris McClean, Topher? Because that kind of life changes you, and not for the better. So wouldn't your time have been better spent if you simply focused on the game like everyone else."
" If I didn't think I was cut out for the hosting biz then I wouldn't of tried so hard. I have the looks and the charisma to carry a show! My talents are wasted on just simply being a contestant!" Topher said
" Jeez we get it you think you're all that. Don't you get tired of hyping yourself up only to get hit in the face by reality?" Anne Maria asked from the Peanut Gallery
"Last time I checked you're not an Aftermath Host so legally speaking I do not have to answer your question." Topher said
Topher then stuck out his tongue and blew a raspberry at Anne Maria. She flipped him off in response.
" Our final question is from Guest who asks " How is your cat Chef doing?" Sam asked
" He's doing fine.. though I tried putting a Chef hat on him recently and he didn't take that very well." Topher said
Topher lifted up his shirt and showed some nasty cat scratches.
" Yikes.. You should probably go get that checked out." Sam said
"Well I think that's all we have for Topher so when we come back well interview our next guest!" Dakota said
commercial break
~ Aftermath Studio: Main Stage~
"Were back and after interviewing Topher our grand total is at $5,000!" Dakota said
" Were gonna need more than that to get the plane up and running so without a further ado let's introduce our next guest. He used to believe he was a wizard, has a broken arm and walked around nearly naked for several challenges. It's Leonard!" Blaineley said
Leonard walked out onto stage wearing a dark green magician's outfit.
" Leonard love the new outfit." Dakota said
" Thanks!" Leonard said
"So Leonard are you ready to answer some questions?" Sam asked
"Lay it on me!" Leonard said
" Anon Browser asks " After coming in last place during the first season, how accomplished do you feel to have outlasted six other people when given another chance to compete?" Sam asked
" It feels great! Sitting on the sidelines for so long was starting to get boring so being given another chance to compete was marvelous! Though I'm surprised I made it farther than B and Jo. Those two were real competitors." Leonard said
" Leonard if they're stuck here on the sidelines then there not "real competitors." Blaineley said
" You could maybe say that for Jo but B got screwed over by that singing rule." Sam said
" It's his own fault for being stubborn." Blaineley said
B got up and walked over to the hosts couch where he handed Sam a flash drive.
"What's this?" Sam asked
B then pointed at the flash drive.
" You want me to plug it into here? Okay." Sam said
Sam plugged in the flash drive and on the teleprompter played a video of Blaineley.
~ Teleprompter: Blaineley~
Blaineley was in the guest room eating some pizza. A slice dropped on the ground and she picked it up disregarding the dirt on it and ate it.
~ End Video~
" Ugh that's sick!" Sam said as he held back his vomit
" Where did you get that from?!.. I mean that footage was clearly edited." Blaineley said
Blaineley turned around and glared at the silent genius as he gave her a thumbs up.
" Let's move onto the next question Guest asks " What do you plan on doing with your life now that you know you're not a wizard?" Blaineley asked
" I'm glad you asked guest!" Leonard said
Leonard snapped his fingers and some interns brought out several cages containing dangerous animals.
"After going around the world and seeing all different types of wildlife. I've been interested in becoming a beast tamer!" Leonard said
" Leonard do you know what you're doing?" Dakota asked
" Of course! I took a course online." Leonard said as he walked over to the beasts
Leonard pulled out a steak and waved it around in a lion's face.
" Watch this! Sit!" Leonard said
The lion blinked twice and stared at Leonard.
" Well he isn't attacking me anymore so that's progress." Leonard said
" Yawn.. Were never gonna get any money like this." Blaineley said
Blaineley looked over at a lever that could release all of the animals.
" Beasts of the world prepare to get your revenge." Blaineley said
Blaineley pulled the lever and the cages were opened. Leonard shrieked in terror as the lion jumped over him and proceeded to maul him. An anaconda slithered over to Blaineley and put her in a chokehold.
" Someone call security!" Sam said
A bunch of monkeys took Sam down and a snapping turtle sunk his teeth into Dakota's hair.
" My hair is not a chew toy!" Dakota said as she tried to pull the turtle off
The animals trashed the studio and everyone in it. Several people's screams could be heard as Sam crawled up to the camera.
"We'll be right back remember-" Sam said before he was interrupted
He was then headbutted by a baby goat.
"Give until it hurts.." Sam said off-screen
~ Aftermath Studio: Main Stage~
Leonard was seen wobbling through the Aftermath stage.
" M-Marvelous.." Leonard said
Leonard then fell down and fainted.
" We should probably call the hospital after the show ends." Dakota said
" You think you can hang on until then Leonard?" Sam asked
...
" I'll take that as a yes." Sam said
The two looked at the camera and gasped.
"Were on? Welcome back to the telethon to end all telethons! It's time to check in with Blaineley for our new total." Dakota said
"After that little fiasco were now currently up to.." Blaineley said
The teleprompter went up to $300,000 dollars.
" $300,000 dollars?! Sweet!" Sam said
" Yeah but now we have to pay for the damaged studio so were gonna need a million dollars." Blaineley said
" One million dollars... In ten minutes?! It's okay Dakota you can do this." Dakota said to herself
" Our next guest is quite the ladies man or so he believes, has the strength of a gorilla and has unfortunately seen my boobs. It's Rodney!" Dakota said
Rodney walked out onto the stage.
" Hey Sam, Hey Dakota." Rodney said
Rodney looked at Blaineley and gasped.
"Whose the pretty blond chick sitting next to you guys?" Rodney asked
" I'm thirty three years old. Talk to me once you're eighteen." Blaineley said
Rodney snapped his fingers in defeat and sat down.
"So Rodney are you ready to answer some questions?" Dakota asked
Rodney shrugged indifferently
" First up is a question from Guest who asked " How does it feel to lose your "dream girl" to Dave?" Dakota asked
" Not good honestly. I thought Ella and I had something special since she hugged me and sat next to me... Her liking Dave is even worse though. But as long as she's happy I'm happy." Rodney said
Most of the audience applauded at Rodney's words.
" Our next question is from Anon Browser " Of all the girls you met in Jamaica after getting voted off, is there a specific one you like or liked the most?" Dakota asked
" Funny story it turns out those girls I hit on in Jamaica had boyfriends who didn't take too kindly to me. They threw me in the lagoon with the sharks and eels." Rodney said
" Are you okay?" Sam asked
" Eh.. Emotional pain hurts a lot more than physical pain." Rodney said
"Well Rodney then do we have a game for you." Dakota said
Dakota and Sam stood up as they directed Rodney over to the other side of the stage where there was four contestants sitting in stools. The two hosts sat Rodney down on a couch and put a blindfold over his eyes.
" Hey I can't see!" Rodney said
" That's the point of the game. Rodney you'll be playing Blind Love. A game where you have to rely on your sense of hearing to lead you in the right direction to love. After asking them a few questions the viewers will get to decide your fate. Afterwards you and your new girlfriend will be treated to a fancy date." Dakota said
"G-Gosh this is all so sudden!" Rodney said as he panicked
" I guess my first question would be do you prefer a long walk on the beach or a romantic dinner?" Rodney asked
" Yah I would say the beach because my great great grandfather invented beaches. Before him people just played around with grass." Staci said
" Romantic dinner duh. I'm not walking around on the beach in these heels." Anne Maria said
" Either option is fine I suppose." Scarlett said
"I'd say dinner but only if there serving delicacies. Like raccoon pie and dumpster juice milkshakes-" Sugar said before she was interrupted
"Please stop Sugar before the audience loses their appetites." Blaineley said
Sugar huffed as she stopped talking.
" Uh.. let's see... Would you kiss me after our first date?" Rodney asked
" Yah my great great grandmother invented kissing before her people just licked each other's faces." Staci said
" With your looks? Hell no!" Anne Maria said
" As I've said before I am asexual so I would never be open to anything you have in mind." Scarlett said
" If you're paying for it then heck I'll let you get to third base!" Sugar said
The audience ooohed as Rodney blushed.
" I like the way Girl #4 is thinking. My last question is if we got married would you mind living down on the farm with my dad and six older brothers?" Rodney asked
" Yah my uncle invented farms before him people kept their livestock in the basement." Staci said
"You're crazy if you think I'm living in some podunk redneck farm!" Anne Maria said
" It would be interesting to study the farm animals that are there but I would have to decline. I'm not good with strong smells and the manure would probably make me feint." Scarlett said
" Pfft I already live on a farm so that ain't nothing to me! I could bring my family down there too and have a big family potluck!" Sugar said
" Sam, Dakota I've made my choice-" Rodney said before he was interrupted
"Sorry Rodney but you don't get to choose. Viewers at home call now and donate to determine what girl Rodney ends up with." Sam said
Numerous calls were made as the Peanut Gallery were quick to answer them. An intern ran up and whispered something in Sam's ear.
"According to my sources most of you guys want Rodney to end up with..." Sam said
"..."
"..."
"... Sugar?!"
The other three girls sighed a breath of relief. Rodney took off his blindfold and stared at Sugar.
" I mean I'm up for anything so if you're willing to give this a shot-" Sugar said before she was interrupted
Rodney put his finger near Sugar's mouth to shush her.
" You had me at third base." Rodney said
Sugar grabbed Rodney's face pulled him into a passionate kiss. Rodney wasn't sure what to do as Sugar practically forced her tongue down his throat. The hosts, audience and Peanut Gallery recoiled in disgust.
" Mhmhmhmhm!" Rodney said as he grasped for air
" Oh my god make it stop!" Blaineley said as she covered her eyes
" No we won't stop until you donate your money. The longer you wait the longer... this continues." Dakota said
Multiple calls were made in as the Peanut Gallery answered them.
" We've made it up to $600,000 dollars! Rodney, Sugar you can stop now." Dakota said
The two continued kissing as Rodney lifted up Sugar by her butt and Sugar grabbed Rodney by the head.
" There not stopping.." Blaineley said as she covered
Sam quickly pushed the kissing couple out of the back door. The audience cheered as the two left.
" Sam from everyone whose eyeballs were tainted by that filth. I thank you." Blaineley said
" Oh it was nothing. But were not at a million yet so we have one more guest to introduce. She's a fierce competitor, gets mistaken for a guy and got into a fist fight with Lightning. It's Jo!" Sam said
Jo walked out onto the stage and sat down.
" Hey Jo how are you feeling?" Sam asked
" Like crap." Jo said angrily
"Will try to get this interview over as fast as we can so please don't hit me." Sam said
" I won't make any promises." Jo said as she cracked her knuckles
" Anon Browser asks " How does it feel to be the lowest ranking member of your team this season?" Sam asked
" I feel like I got cheated out of a million bucks! I was stronger than Chris Jr, The Magician, Afro Monster, and The Rookie combined!: Jo said
" I mean the problem wasn't that you were weak it was that you were a jerk." Sam said
"I made sure we won challenges who cares how I treat people?!" Jo retorted
Sam rolled his eyes.
" OmniUIShaggyOverexaggerated asks " Why do you always feel the need to lead others when more often than not, you suck as a leader due to your lack of empathy towards your teammates? Why the need to degrade, insult or mock others when they don't meet your standards, considering each person has a different standard to begin with, with a unique trait, personality, characteristic, behavior and attitude?" Dakota asked
" This should be an interesting question for her to answer." Sam said as he smirked
" Empathy? Who needs that crap my dad taught me that emotions are for the weak." Jo said
" Why would your dad teach you something like that?" Dakota asked
" Well my mom died a little while after I was born and my dad would've been a total wreck if he expressed how he felt. Instead he chose to bottle it all up and he's doing totally fine." Jo said
The audience gasped as they heard Jo's story.
" Jo that's really sad.. Are you doing okay?" Dakota asked
" Meh. Can't be sad about someone I barely knew." Jo said as she shrugged
"Well then we have a great way for you to express your emotions." Sam said
The interns pulled in a giant boxing ring to the aftermath stage. One intern ran over and put boxing gloves on Jo's hands.
"What is this?!" Jo asked
" For a small donation you can have the opportunity to fight Jo! Call in now and make your purchase!" Blaineley said
Brick walked over and handed Sam some money.
"Brick what are you doing?" Sam asked
" Me and Jo have some business to settle soldier." Brick said
Brick hopped into the ring with his boxing gloves.
" I still haven't forgotten about how you tricked me back on the Island and got me eliminated." Brick said
"That's your own fault for being gullible Captain Leaks-A-Lot. But if you want shot at me and then come and get it." Jo said
Brick charged at Jo but was shortly met with an uppercut that sent him flying across the ring.
" Was that all you got?" Jo asked as she yawned
The backdoor swung open and Sugar walked through it as she handed Sam some money.
" If there's one thing Sugar loves more than tongue wrestling is real wrestling!" Sugar said as she put on her gloves
Sugar hopped into the ring as she and Jo traded blows.
" Damn your not as weak as I thought." Jo said
Jo tried punching Sugar in her gut but it had no effect on her. Sugar then swung on Jo and she was sent to the ground.
" Sugar holla!" Sugar said victoriously
"That's my girl!" Rodney said
" Um.. Rodney your fly's open." Dakota said
Rodney blushed as he zipped up his pants. Scarlett walked over to Sasquatchanakwa and put a strange helmet on his head. She then handed Sam a briefcase filled with money.
" Holy crap this is enough money to get the plane back up off the ground! Where did you get this Scarlett?" Sam asked
" Where I got it from is not important. I would like to enter Sasquatchanakwa into this challenge." Scarlett said
Sam nodded as Sasquatchanakwa hopped into the ring. Sasquatchanakwa growled as he picked up Sugar with ease and threw her out of the ring. The audience gasped as Sugar flew across the aftermath stage.
" Sugar noooo! I will avenge you!" Rodney said
Rodney hopped into the ring and was immediately knocked out by Sasquatchanakwa. With no more opponents Sasquatchanakwa hopped out of the ring and terrorized the studio.
" Well we got the money so should we end it off here?" Dakota asked
" It seems like the best time to do so. With a million dollars Total Drama can continue and we get to keep our jobs! If you wanna see more me and my lovely girlfriend then turn into.." Sam said
"TOTAL!" Dakota said
"DRAMA!" Sam said
"AFTERMATH!" Blaineley said
Sasquatchanakwa ran over and picked up Blaineley as he ran out of the studio.
~ Bonus Clip: Scarlett~
Scarlett sat in the guest room as she talked to a very special someone via video chat on her laptop.
"So did you get the items I sent you?" Max asked
" Yes I received the helmet and the briefcase. The helmet worked just fine but I must ask where did you get a million dollars from?" Scarlett asked
" Oh?.. That thing? Some fake cash Chris gave me when I kidnapped some of his precious contestants so I thought I would return the favor." Max said
" If the money is fake then Mclean has no chance of making it out of Jamaica." Scarlett said
" Precisely that is when me, Hans and my new army of evil animals will invade! Speaking of which did you acquire some evil animals for me?" Max said
" Yes luckily that fool Leonard had a bunch of them for today's show. I took them after they were rounded up by security." Scarlett said
"Excellent by the time my plan comes to fruition you and I will have our revenge Scarlett." Max said
Scarlett smirked.
"After all this time I still can't take you seriously. But I will admit I am rather impressed." Scarlett said
" You should be my evil mind is not to be underestimated." Max said
Max then broke out into a full evil laugh as Scarlett joined him.
That was Chapter Twelve of TOTAL DRAMA WHAT IF? WORLD TOUR! If you enjoyed it then leave some reviews and slap some favorites on here.
So I did something a little bit different here with the Aftermath. They think they raised enough money for the show but in reality they didn't. So Chris, Chef, and the contestants will still be stuck in Jamaica. How will they get out of Jamaica? You'll have to read the next chapter... :).
Elimination Order: B-19th, Max-18th, Sugar-17th, Anne Maria-16th, Jo-15th, Topher-14th, Leonard-13th, Rodney-12th
