Total Drama: Ultimate Islands!
Episode 5: Boating The Average!
Part 3: Chef's Water Racing
While the previous part was the start of the challenge, this part is the peak of the challenge considering the most...character of characters shows up in this challenge and Chef now does his job this time around!
Either way, there is going to be more boat racing, more strategy and even more boat damage, as the race hits its peak in this part and honestly, things get real here!
"And we're back with some more boat racing and Chef ready to do the business to these teams!"
Chris was just standing back on the dock with Chef Hatchet smiling to do the deal, as he was riding in a speedy jet ski for his own.
"Chris, I'm just gonna stop these boats!" Chef Hatchet shouted, ready to shoot some questionable food from a cannon.
"Yeah, he should be enough to scare these guys." Chris remarked with a smile, as Chef sped off. "I should warn them, but he's probably got a thing ready!"
The host was there, proud of his new and weird weapon and Chef was speeding off to mess with the 12 contestants in their speedboats...
...if the other contestants that were riding in their normal boats were not doing just that with their rival teams' speedboats.
"Chef's coming, but it looks like he's just going to scare these contestants a little bit more!" Chris shouted, as the deadly trio in the Deers were dealing with one of the oddest attacking strategies.
Judy had nothing to do, but Gloria and Michiru being able water animals or able to adapt to water very well...meant that the Deers' speedboats were having a bad time.
Michiru did a solid side jump, as she got thrown a C4 on her transformed legs...but it fell off in the water and Gloria just did a hard punch on Samus...the bounty hunter blocking it, but the boat went much slower.
"How the hell are we moving so slowly?" Samus asked.
"Because there's a mine that if we move quickly, we will hit it." Sonja said. "So to be careful."
"Cool, but you didn't need to tell them." Samus did a roundhouse to Gloria's stomach. "They'll take advantage of it."
"How did they get a underwater mine here?" Judy just looked surprised. "...Geez."
Through Sonja doing a slow turn and Michiru strongly kicking the bow of the speedboat away from the mine and Snake throwing a grenade in her face, the Deers were off at speed.
Samus an raised an eyebrow at grenade throw, as Sonja just gave a thumbs up.
"That wasn't really justified." Samus remarked, as Snake had a sigh.
"How else are we going to get someone like her off?" Snake asked, ready to take it on...as Samus stayed silent.
"...Yeah, that's a fair point." Samus said, just conceding the point.
"Oh, looks like the Crows finally got into the lead!"
The Deers were not nervous at all, despite the Crows having some powerful people riding on the boat and being pretty casual.
"Hey, it wouldn't hurt to have someone else show up." Kyo remarked, as Kageyama still looked incredibly nervous.
"Come on. Now someone's gonna show up and flip us upside down!" Kageyama said, popping from under the seat.
"Are you okay? They're not gonna do that." Kyo said, having a fair ride around the corner.
"Uh, they might!"
These two were still arguing over the controls, while Mikasa was just trying to learn the steering wheel...but then there was someone that was about to show up and flip them upside down.
"There's a chef to our left!" Mikasa told them, which got them both groaning. "He has someone that looks like a thunder spear."
"That's a rocket launcher, lady." Kyo remarked, as Chef was just showing it off. "And I bet he's trying to stop us."
"And that's not happening." Mikasa stated, taking out the blades.
"Never mind, the Swordfishes are in the lead and in Chef's firing range!" Chris announced, as Sokka was just proudly standing up, Lowain pulled out his knives and Cassie looked interested. "And they're going head-to-head, too!"
The two teams were out of the chicane thankfully, but now Chef was in position to hit.
Chef was looking pretty smug about his rocket launcher, considering that there were two teams that were lined up to get hit by the distraction shots...which he started right away.
"Yo, it's gonna be in front of us...and to our right!" Lowain had a look. "We gotta-"
"Got it." Cassie moved to the left.
Meanwhile some guys on the next battle boat were a little scared of Chef, as the missile was heading right for them...especially Legoshi and Hank Hill, who just jumped from the boat with lifevests.
Hank just jumped out of it, still a little bit stunned.
"...Oh, how did I get here?" Legoshi asked with regrets.
"Then why did ya enter?" Hank Hill asked.
The two of them were floating in the water...as Chef was still unloading rockets and the other two teams caught up to the leaders.
Cassie and Kyo were butting heads in the boats, while Chef was doing some pretty good aiming in front of them to stop them from reaching the finish line...as the course was getting a little bit curvy.
Cassie just took the inside of each corner, as Sokka and Lowain was ready to chop the rockets up somehow.
"Oh, bro, let's frigging get 'em." Lowain shouted, seeing a missile. "I meant the other teams."
"That honestly makes a lot of sense." Sokka said, standing proud with his sword.
Within their speedboat, Dante and Sol weren't sure why Azula was able to drive this thing and why she managed to hop onto the driver's seat...though the missiles were still coming in from Chef's apparently infinite missile launcher.
Azula really did some dangerous driving, getting close to the missiles and then misdirecting them to the battle boats that were just shooting.
"Listen, we-" Deadpool said, somehow singing the two katanas.
"You know you can get off our boat, damn!" Sandy shouted, shooting marbles. "Also, there's a picture of you without your suit."
"Hey, whoa, whoa, someone's gotta pay for that picture!" Deadpool shouted. "And I'm not charging!"
Deadpool just shot a rocket out like it was nothing, as Sakura was trying to further her Hadoukens and Sandy was still shooting marbles at speed.
Those obstacles didn't stop the Rhinos from doing the business of being in third, but the marbles, Chef's rocket and Deadpool's rocket slowed them down seriously...with an explosion to boot.
And said explosion was not in their favour, as they got moved slightly backwards by the aftershock wave.
*Dante's confessional*
"I may not be able to stop all of the rockets, because I'm not wearing any swim trunks. But I'm still trying to move us all forward!" Dante exclaimed, having a few bits of seaweed in the front.
*Confessional cut*
"The Deers and The Rhinos aren't safe, yet, as they're in the danger zone for elimination and oh man, these new battle boats aren't helping anyone!"
"Well, Chris said it best." Snake said, riding the boat. "I think we're up against some deadly enemies."
"Storm Shadow would be a deadly enemy on his own, so we've got a situation!" Sonja said, a little nervous about the ninja, Squirrel Girl and Mai. "And I think it got worse."
"Then hold on tight." Snake remarked, slowing down slightly. "We've got a good distraction."
The Deers were still in third and waiting for the three of them to attack...and the Swordfishes were in first, with someone missing from their next battle boat that carried weapons.
"Robot cop guy probably would get the shock!" Lowain shouted, as Reg gave him...a mini cannon. "Thanks, robot kid, you're built different."
"Thank you?" Reg asked, as Tails gave a thumbs up. "If Chef's hitting ya, shoot in front of him."
"Bro, we're not catching an unwinnable case." Lowain said. "But thanks."
"No problem!" Tails exclaimed.
The first-place boat may have been first place nomore, but they had a killer weapon in their stead with Sokka having a goofy smile and Cassie driving off.
And the new first-place team, the Crows were about to get some of the hardest boat battle of the day...with Storm Shadow, Squirrel Girl and Mai Shiranui hopping on for disruption.
Kyo just jumped up with Mikasa, as Kageyama went inside the building with a nervous frown.
"Hey, ninja jerk, you're in my way." Kyo remarked, lighting up his fingers. "Best you don't get burned."
"Kyo Kusanagi, your race ends here." Storm Shadow stated without messing around. "I don't care what you do but do your job."
"My job? Fighting's like my job." Mai raised her fan, as Mikasa was just readying her blades. "Mikasa, bring it!"
The fight started, as though there was not a lot of space...the fight was still impressively spicy, as there was enough space for Kyo and Storm Shadow to do the fight and Mikasa and Mai did bring their handheld weapons down on each other.
Fan came against sword and Mai's strength somehow almost cancelled out Mikasa's strikes, as it was going blow-to-blow...as Kyo and Storm Shadow was keeping things long-range with some speedy kicks and projectiles.
Hilariously though, this allowed the Swordfishes to scoot on in first, but not before having their own battle with Chef...as the missiles were starting to hit in the right places.
Chef's aiming was pretty good, the rockets firing off with force and exploding in the water with disruptive waves...Cassie driving against the natural and missile-created waves and Lowain and Sokka were hanging on.
"Sokka, I've got my hands full...think you can test what that thing is for?" Cassie asked.
"Sure, leave it to me!" Sokka sarcastically shouted. "What does this do?"
He fired it right where Tails said it was needed and Chef got blown back off his jetpack, thanks to a massive, created wave that came from nowhere.
"Uh, Chef's gone, but we could be goners too!" Sokka could see the wave heading towards us.
"Not a problem, my guy, it's heading towards us." Lowain said...as Sokka gave an incredulous look. "We're riding the wave, bro, we did that before!"
"Yeah, Sokka, goddamn..." Cassie said, as the speedboat basically rode a noticeable wave.
The Swordfishes were flying into first place, the Crows and the Deers were fighting for third place...thanks to the wave that shook them up, as Mai and Storm Shadow wisely jumped off the Crows' speedboat.
Mikasa jumped back into the steering thing...just trying to ride the wave out and the Deers were doing the same thing.
Unsurprisingly, the three other teams were able to make it through the wave...though they managed to get wet, bsides Kageyama with Squirrel Girl and their boats were still shaky.
"Hey, furry, are you okay?" Kageyama asked, dead seriously.
"Kinda...my squirrels are going to be mad, if I don't swim back." Squirrel Girl stated. "Keep on serving that ball, okay."
*Cassie's confessional*
"One minute, we've got some wave generating gun and the next thing, we're flying through the rest of the course. Whoever made that, I appreciate the gun." Cassie remarked, as she felt a little bit sick. "Though you should've toned it down."
*Mikasa's confessional*
"As much as Mai was my enemy in this challenge, I do respect her fighting style and skills...but I couldn't let up in this thing. Sorry, Mai, I hope you're not seriously injured." Mikasa said.
*Mai's confessional*
Mai was just standing tall.
"Man, for someone who can't really swim, she really packs a punch!" Mai exclaimed with a smile with a pain.
*Confessional cut*
"Man, these contestants are really making each other hurt and of course, the most hurt is also the team that won the most!" Chris announced. "Chef's probably good!"
Chef was just floating in the water...getting back on his own jet ski to just avoid getting a lot more wet, so he had some grumbles.
"Damn super-whatevers, ruining my good clothes." Chef grumbled. "They're going to get something later."
"Besides, the Swordfishes are taking the lead, the Deers are in second, the Crows are in third and the Rhinos are in dead last...so anything could happen now!"
Sokka's weapon just blew up in front of him...giving him some soot.
"Uh, guys, we've been given a serious opportunity." Sokka grinned.
"A buttload of opportunity in fact, because if we can keep this up, we're gold." Cassie said. "But there's no way that we're getting off easy."
"Yeah...so it's sword time." Sokka boasted.
The Swordfishes were now doing a hard corner to the right, as they could see the finish line to their left, but no proper path there and a butt load of mines and even a warning sign.
They had a confident smirk, some buoys and arrows and another trio ready to fight the leaders and they looked like they were fighting for real.
"Dudes and dudettes, we request to pass because-" Lowain asked.
"No, because we're not wimps or anything like that." Scott Pilgrim remarked. "We're fighters for real...with blasters."
"Uh, I have fire." Spike remarked, making Lowain a little dour. "I don't want to fight you guys, but we're probably against each other."
"I'm supposed to say something funny, but I can't." Snufkin had nothing.
The Swordfishes sans Lowain were ready to drop some fists, as Scott was raring to go and Spike spat some fire out, though it was weakened by the ocean...but it still hurt the furry-earred guy.
"OOOW!" Lowain screeched, as the three Swordfishes were going to have to deal with Spike. "Bro, we mean you no harm!"
"Sorry, just helping my team out!" Spike said, before breathing out some more fire.
The Swordfishes were definitely staying on course just as fast as Spike was flying towards them...as the Deers were up against their best enemies, as Pinstripe, Sugar and Fred were just throwing rocks with surprising effiency.
Though they may have been rocks, they were hitting the green boat with a lot of strength and even made a few holes and Fred threw a club and it managed to make a serious hit with Snake shooting the launcher and only breaking it off.
Which was notable, when they slowed a bit.
"This is painful...imagine losing because they did their best." Sonja remarked. "That's a good way to go out."
"Honestly, it's not even close to being over!" Snake declared.
Their fan got somewhat dented by the pelted rocks, but they kept on moving, somehow catching up to the Swordfishes...if only because the Swordfishes still had a dragon on their hands.
Spike was doing well enough, as Cassie stopped the boat to join in the fight and the dragon...put on a brave face to get hit by the Cassie Cage's first hard-hitting punch.
Spike got knocked back by a lot and Cassie...looked at the Deers being quite a distance ahead.
*Cassie's confessional*
"Us losing isn't happening and honestly, I hope we don't lose...'cause there's a bunch of people that are probably going home...that shouldn't go home." Cassie said, a little bit dour.
*Confessional cut*
The Crows, though, were speeding on through and it didn't matter that Ryuko was just chasing them through water with an impressive jump...because Mikasa basically swatted her out of the air.
"Here we go, first place!" Kageyama exclaimed, as the volleyball player felt the speed. "Take that, Noel!"
"Don't give her too much of a hard time, she's panicking." Mikasa said, seeing Kyo speed on ahead.
"And the Crows boost their way into second and even first with the Deers eating their powerful waves!" Chris announced. "Are they going to win again?!"
The gold-yellow trio were just taking their speed and turning it up, as they were taking the smooth corners like they were nothing...with the Deers being kinda slow and the Swordfishes finally getting back on track.
"At this rate, something has to stop us." Mikasa could see...someone.
"What do you mean? You ain't confident in your boat driving guy?" Kyo asked.
"You don't have a license to drive a boat." Mikasa remarked seriously.
"Neither do you, but you're still being a badass out here." Kyo remarked right back with a smirk.
The guys were about get what Mikasa predicted, as there was some of the Rhinos and they weren't ready for Gintoki, Coachman and Basil...the oddest of the trios.
*Sugar's confessional*
"I don't get what the old guy meant, but I ain't ready to make them lose and neither is he apparently!" Sugar shouted. "I'm gonna beat ya, Ella!"
*Confessional cut*
"Looks like there's a few more mines to...spice things up again!" Chris said, happy to do the extra part of his job. "Who knows who could win?"
The mines were back to exploding in proximity, thanks to the host hitting the button off-camera and the Crows were back to dodging.
And what didn't help was that Gintoki had a bunch of random stuff packed on him, as Basil was just standing right by him.
"Whoa, you're a talking mouse? What's your problem?" Gintoki said, the white-haired swordsman ready.
"I don't know what my problem is, but I can see the Crows about to pass by." Basil remarked.
"Oh, nice." Gintoki said. "Let's open up some enemies."
Basil just sighed, as an gloved hand patted him on the back.
"Like he said, those three aren't going to get ahead." Coachman remarked, readying his whip. "They're just stupidly speeding."
Basil was analyising the situation, as the Crows' speedboat definitely noticed the trio...with his teammates ridiculously confident at stopping it.
"The boat is going at an notable speed, so what are you going to do about it?" Basil asked, seeing Mikasa ready to swing her blades. "And she's part of the Scouts, one of the-"
"You really don't need to doubt me." Coachman said with a very evil smile.
Somehow, Gintoki swung a massive wooden pole at the Crows'...and it hit the back of the boat, but not the fan. Coachman didn't look too surprised, rubbing his forehead.
"That is impressive, but it didn't help us at all." Basil told the two of them, as Gintoki just shouted something.
"Huh, what did you do?!" Gintoki shouted at Basil.
*Kageyama's confessional*
"Not going to lie, I thought that was going to hit the boat and break some of it. Oh my god, thank god it's lame." The volleyball player said, having some sweat and a smirk.
*Confessional cut*
While the trio failed to beat the Crows, The Deers and the Swordfishes were bashing their boats against each other and far avoiding the red battle boat...which got one of them heated.
What didn't help was Dante stopping for a second to check on them.
"Er, you're looking in a good mood." Sol said, trying to ease the tension.
"I can't help it, you're not even close to winning this thing! So, go win or you three will sink our whole team down!" Coachman said calmly...but with a threatening tone.
"Stopping here was a mistake." Sol remarked.
*Azula's confessional*
"Whatever his contribution is must be less than how important he thinks that he is to the team, since he didn't even stop any of the boats." Azula said, laying down some insults. "Though...it's not like he still isn't very useful."
*Confessional cut*
"Man...this is getting kinda boring." Chris said. "But the race really changes here!"
There was a buttload of mines all around, no battle boats and it was on the east side of the island with some buildings and stuff on it and of course, every boat stopped for the mine-filled section.
Including the last-place team that wasn't so far away.
"Hey, whatcha you looking at?" Dante asked.
"The place that you're going to down at!" Sokka exclaimed. "Pretty huge, did I mention."
"Yeah, but we're going to safety for the fourth time." Dante remarked.
"Not happening, 'cause you got people that suck!" Sokka shouted, as Cassie just added to that with a jeer towards the Rhinos. "Like her."
"Trust me, you're going to need your sword to beat us here." Azula taunted perfectly, which got Dante chuckling. "Unlike you, we can be careful."
"Hey, don't worry about it. I got taught these things." Cassie said some words.
The Rhinos and The Swordfishes were clashing, as the other two teams also exchanged some good words with each other...as they were looking at the amount of mines.
"I hope you've got a volleyball where you're going." Samus taunted Kageyama, who wasn't distracted.
"I guess to the finish line? Because that's where I'm going." Kageyama remarked. "Uh-"
"He's going to take that volleyball and put it in the finish line, 'cause we're winning!" Kyo boasted, ready to take it on.
"Trust me, it takes more than speed to get through here safely." Samus remarked.
And those two teams were off, though a little bit slower than usual.
*Sonja's confessional*
"Can I just say as much as I have been in the military, there's still so many mines that have no reason to be there...than because Total Drama." Sonja said, still feeling that unease.
*Confessional cut*
"Man, I sure hope we don't end up blowing ourselves." Lowain said, contemplating on the race before this. "Imagine that."
"Uh, please don't imagine it." Cassie Cage replied. "Damn, these are a lot of mines."
And then a few went off in front of the two teams that started first and the other two that were going second for common sense reasons.
"There ain't much more of the battle race, but these trios in these speedboats will go through mines, Chef again and some other people! Who's going to win this challenge...after the break on Total Drama: Ultimate Islands!" Chris announced, as the four teams were still racing their hardest on their way to the finish line and dodging explosions all of the way through.
To be continued in the fourth part, which is the end of this explosive boating challenge and more importantly, the end of the boat madness and if the writing goes well, the elimination of four more contestants!
But the elimination might need a fifth part to fully get it right and get it working, so if there is a fifth part...don't be surprised and it should really be called Ultimate Isles...but I don't really care.
The leader board, so far:
The Crafty Crows (Kyo Kusangai, Tobio Kageyama & Mikasa Ackermann): 1st
The Striking Swordfishes (Cassie Cage, Sokka & Lowain): 2nd
The Rugged Rhinos (Dante, Sol Badguy & Azula): 3rd
The Daring Deers (Sonja, Samus Aran & Solid Snake): 4th
