The Totally Dramatic TDS Finale Special!
Chris McLean's sneakers appear walking down the sandy shore of Camp Wawanakwa and the camera pans up as he walks until it is focused on his profile. He wears his big signature grin and winks at the camera before speaking. "This season on Total Drama Seasons," there are flashbacks shown as Chris speaks. "We brought 16 brand new contestants on a competition of a lifetime! We divided these teens into two teams, the Summer Suns." The Summer Suns are shown: Colin, Delanie, Eli, Gloria, Katherine, Nick, Nolan, and TJ. "...And the Autumn Leaves." The Autumn Leaves are then shown: Arin, Colleen, Janae, JC, Lesley, Luigi, Maddie, and Vincent. "They were pit against each other in a series of challenges based on the 4 seasons." He chuckles. "At first, they had no idea who they were competing against, but once they came face to face with one another, the competition heated up... Literally."
Chris is now on the ever so infamous dock of shame. "One by one, the contestants were voted out until we were left with our remaining 2 contestants. It's been a journey like no other for our finalists. We have Eli, the short, scrawny kid with the glasses that somehow defied all the odds and got to the end purely based off... um, social maneuvering?" Chris scratched his head. "Look, I'm just as surprised as you are, dudes. The kid even found THE Chris McLean invincibility statue and used it to get rid of Delanie in the middle of the season. He's a lucky one."
Chris snaps his finger and an annoyed Chef appeared holding a tray of various drinks. Chris picks up a mixed drink and takes a sip of it. "Our other finalist is the big strong Vincent, who used his strengths and charm to make it all the way to the end despite being a big target. The brutal hockey star hid a secret for some time for who know what, some ego thing." Chris chuckled in between sips. "But he's here at the end and the only thing between the grand prize and himself is... Eli. This is going to be quite the finish, so stay tuned because we're going to bring you more than just a final challenge." He looks off in the distance toward the island across from Camp Wawanakwa. "It'll be a final challenge and aftershow in one! Welcome to the final episode of Total. Drama. Seasons!"
After the theme song, we see the sky above the lake with a few clouds and some birds flying by. A star wars like music score starts playing as the camera pans down to the uniquely skull shaped rock that we know is on Boney Island, then down to the sands, where we see our eliminated contestants sitting on opposite sides of each other. In the middle stands the familiar dark-skinned, feminine looking Nick. His blue hair looked even brighter than it did before and was freshly spiked up. He wore a white tuxedo with a teal trim, teal bowtie and white dress shoes. He had a mic in his hand a smile on his face.
"Welcome!" He smiled at the camera. "To the Totally Dramatic Total Drama Seasons Finale Special! I am your host, internet sensation and Total Drama commenter, Nick Knowles!" He stops for applause, and receives little to no claps at all. His smile drops a bit, but he picks it back up. "I have been given the amazing opportunity by Chef and Chris to host the finale from this side of the lake! We're gonna be running down all the laughs, cries, loves and more from this season. I'm SO excited to be here with you all!" He smiles at each side of former contestants.
He walks up to the group sitting on the left side. "Here we have team Vincent!" He points to Vincent's support team and begins to name everyone one by one.
"In-famous actress Delanie Rios." She is wearing a beautiful green gown, has a face full of makeup and her hair is done up. She smiles sweetly and winks at the camera.
"Southern thrillseeker TJ." She is in her usual getup, the red and blue plaid flannel and wife beater with blue denim shorts and cowboy boots. Her wheat blonde hair is down though. She flexes and smirks.
"Sweet swimmer Maddie." She's in her usual attire as well, jean shorts and white t-shirt. Her brown hair (with even more faded auburn streaks) is tied up however and she's wearing sneakers.
"Sexy bad boy and street artist Lesley." He's in his regular clothes, the plain white tank top and baggy black jeans. He has a sixth chain necklace on. He looks like he's been working out, as he's big as ever and looks freshly shaved as his bald head has a shine to it. He winks and flexes his left arm, showing off his black tribal tattoo.
"Beautiful model Arin." She has her blonde hair down and is wearing a red dress with matching pumps. She looks like she's daydreaming as the camera zooms in to one of her freckles, then back out as she snaps out of it and poses for the camera.
"Convincing Saleswoman Gloria." The short, chubby Portuguese queen was smizing at the camera, pouting her lips and changing her head placement, posing. She wore a long, elegant black dress. She then rose her wrists up, exposing the many jewels adorning her wrists and fingers.
"Stephen's little sister Janae." The other short girl was wearing her usual purple button up and blue jeans. Her jet black hair was still in a ponytail. The notable differences were the lack of glasses due to new contacts and a Chinese amulet worn around her neck. She rolled her eyes at the comment.
"And rounding out our 8 Vincent supporters, the weird Italian loli-con... Luigi!" He was still tall, still pale, still lanky. Instead of the black cloak he wore a black tuxedo with a dark red bow, a black cape, and black dress shoes. The look was rounded out with a black top hat. He waved at the camera, still wearing his white gloves.
Nick then walked over to the group sitting on the right side. "Here we have our 4 Eli supporters! Team Eli consists of..."
"Die-roll strategy Nolan." His orange hair was freshly spiked and he looked pretty clean. A white tuxedo with a black and red striped tie. His green eyes were fixated on his die, which he held up to the camera for dramatic effect.
"Geek guy and twin 1, Colin." The tall and chubby teen wore a purple button down shirt, black tie, and black cargo shorts with his regular shoes. He looked at the camera with a bit of an 'I told you so' look. His sister, Colleen, playfully poked him.
"Popular girl and twin 2, Colleen." She had her reddish brown hair down instead of up, but the bangs still covered one of her eyes. She wore a long aqua dress, similar to the one Rosalina from the Mario series wears, but with a more green tint. She waves at the camera.
"And last but certainly not least, convicted felon JC!" The short, brown skinned trash talker was dressed up nicely. He wore a black vest over a red long sleeved shirt with black pants and black dress shoes. On his head was a black porkpie hat. He also held a black cane in one hand. He gave the camera a grim look.
"Where is the famous singer and actress Kat Larson you may ask? Sadly, she couldn't make it today. She had an emergency." Nick signaled air quotes, clearly not believing this excuse. "The show must go on. As far as who I'm rooting for... Well I can't tell you that, silly! I have to be as unbiased as possible!" He giggles. At this point he is back in the center. "Now you're about to see the final 2 getting ready for the challenge! When we're back on this side, I'll ask everyone how they feel about the 2 finalists and reveal who the final 2 chose to help them finish this game strong! Chris, back to you!"
Back at Camp Wawanakwa, both Eli and Vincent were separated in their own cabin for their final night's rest on the island. Vincent was still in bed, snoring away. Eli was up sitting on the porch looking out into the distance, thinking.
Confession Cam:
(Eli) "Every day I'm up pretty early but today was different." His disposition was different than usual. "Last night I barely slept. I'm so nervous for today... In this game, I knew I had to work hard. I knew I'd be pushed to the side, undervalued, not looked at as a threat, underestimated. But I made it this far, against all those odds." He laughs a bit. "It's crazy, actually. I never really thought that I would be able to beat 14 other people to get here. Of course, I still have one more to beat, and it's not going to be easy. Actually, this'll be my hardest challenge yet. I'm really gonna have to earn that half a million."
At this point, Vincent had woken up and started his morning routine. He started to do push-ups, pull-ups, jogged in place, everything you could think of. He breathed heavily and wiped the sweat off his forehead.
Confession Cam:
(Vincent) He also looks pretty nervous, but he smiles. "I'm here. I really did it. Against all odds, I pushed myself through to the finale. I had to win my way here, there was no way anyone was gonna bring me here." He chuckles. "Not bad, Vinnie boy. I just have to win one more challenge and the money and title are mine. And honestly, my competition isn't really intimidating me... But I'm an athlete. And a violinist. I'm living proof that we can't always judge a book by the cover. Eli could very well pull this off with the unpredictability of Chris' challenges. But, I think me knowing that is an advantage for myself. I just need to push through and win."
The two finalists each stepped out of their cabins after getting ready and locked eyes. Vincent offered the first smile.
"You ready for today?" He asked.
Eli shrugged. "Not yet. I need to eat some food for sure."
"Well, yeah." Vincent said. "...Either way, I'm looking forward to racing you. It's been a pretty wild experience, right?"
"Very." Eli said. "And what's cool is that we both played pretty different games to get here!"
"That part." Vincent agreed. "If this were a jury type show, we'd both have pretty strong arguments I'd say."
"Definitely." Eli said. "...Now enough small talk! Let's go eat."
"Race you there!" Vincent said and rushed off, leaving Eli behind.
"Nice try." Eli said. "But you aren't going to tire me out this early!" He called out to him.
Vincent entered the mess hall, with Eli entering shortly after. There, awaiting them was a buffet of actual good breakfast foods. Flapjacks, eggs, bacon, muffins, fresh fruit, yogurts, cereals, juices, all the good stuff.
"Finally!" Eli exclaimed. "I've been waiting for the finalist breakfast!" He immediately grabbed a plate and started piling things on it.
"Oh yesssss, thanks Chef." Vincent did the same thing. "Finally, some good protein."
Chef scoffed as he and Chris walked in.
"Get your final bits in, kids!" Chef said.
"It's going to be a loooong day." Chris said. "One final challenge to go and I can finally collect my paycheck from the network, so eat fast!"
"Trust me, we want this day to be over too. We're here to collect a paycheck as well." Vincent said.
"Well, only one of you is gonna get it." Chris said. "While you eat, think about the 2 people who you want to help you in the final challenge. You can't change your mind, so pick wisely." He hands each of them a sticky note.
"Wow!" Vincent shot up. "8 people want to see me win?!"
"Lucky you." Eli said, a bit disappointed. "I don't have much to choose from."
Confession Cam:
(Eli) "Your 2 helpers could make or break your final challenge performance. And the fact that I have to choose between these 4." He groans. "Well, my choice was pretty much made for me."
(Vincent) "I know exactly who I'm picking to help me out. These two are great team players."
"And we are back!" Nick beamed. "I'm here with Team Vincent. We have some expected faces like Maddie and Janae here." He walks up to TJ. "Now TJ, we know you started the season on the same team as Eli, why are you rooting so hard for Vincent now?"
TJ smiled. "Well Ah truly admire Vincent as a a competitor." She said, her sweet southern accent shining through. "He worked his butt off to get to this here finale. He's also pretty handsome, that Vinnie."
"He sure is." Nick giggled. "Delanie, why are you rooting for Vincent? Didn't you have an alliance with Eli?"
"It's simple." Delanie sat upright and smiled. "I was only bringing Eli to the final 3 with me and Kat because I knew we could beat him. I never thought he deserved to win the whole thing. What has he even done?"
"He got you kicked off of our team first with that iconic invincibility statue play, remember?" Nick pointed.
Delanie rolled her eyes. "Sure, but I came back and pretty much allowed him to get as far as he has. The only reason he's there and I'm not is because we didn't get Vincent out as soon as we could."
"To be fair, he won his way to the end. You never had a chance." Nick said.
"We would have if the boys didn't vote me out." Lesley said. "I definitely would have beat that violinist in all of those challenges. Chris merged the teams way too late if you ask me."
"Well we'd certainly rather have him there at the end than you." Janae said.
"Janae!" Nick went to her next. "You stole the premerge by storm! You pretty much were running the show until you quit... For Vincent. It's no surprise you're rooting for him."
"Of course I'm rooting for him." Janae said, trying not to get red with embarrassment. "Quitting was definitely a low point in life, because I never quit. But I had to put my own emotions over the game, so whatever."
"So tell us," Nick winked at the camera. "How do you feel about Vincent today."
"He's a big threat, yeah, and everyone hated him for it. But he's a pretty good guy. I consider him a friend, I think, and I hope he considers me one too." Janae said.
"That's cute." Nick smiled sweetly at her, then looked at the camera. "We all know she has a massive crush on him, right?"
"Hey!" Janae retorted in the background.
Nick headed over to the other side. "Team Eli is small, but full of life! Nolan! How are you feeling today?"
Nolan looked up. "Me? I'm feeling fine. Excited for this to finally be over so I can go back home to my family and girlfriend. I will say, I have come to miss them."
"That's so sweet." Nick gushed. "I will say, you all look good as hell! Even you, Colin. You're in your regular done up but you look freshly showered!"
"Uh, thanks?" Colin replied. "You look pretty good today too, Nick. You finally showered?"
"Good one." Nick smiled. "Colin and Nolan, you both had a rocky in game relationship with Eli, what makes you both think he deserves the crown over Vincent?"
Nolan cleared his throat, then held up his die. Before Nick could reply, he spoke. "I will say, die strategy or not, I do admire that Eli never gave up. Even when it seemed like his back was against the wall, and no one wanted to work with him, he found a way in. Super cool."
"Yeah, that." Colin said. "Despite wanting Nolan and I out at several points, I do feel like he had a purpose in the game that I have come to like. I'm sure outside of the game we could be the best of friends."
"I can see that." Colleen playfully nudged her brother. "I'm rooting for Eli for similar reasons. I feel like he played a hell of a game. If I could play again, I'd probably want to play similarly."
"No way." Gloria called out in her thick Portuguese accent. "His game was very messy."
"He couldn't even get rid of me a second time." Delanie said. "Ugh, I really ran the show." She crossed her arms, frustrated.
"And both of your games were spotless?" Colleen asked. "We're all here, on the losers side, for a reason."
"My reason sucks." JC said from next to Colleen. "That idiot McLean rigged it against me."
"JC! My man!" Nick smiled. "My one question for you is, why Eli? You never met the guy since you left before the winter separation twist was over."
"I don't give a damn." JC said. "Violin jock voted me out, skinny boy didn't. That's that." He glared.
"Oh... Kay." Nick said. He looked JC up and down. "I know it must suck being the first boot and all, but at least you look damn good! If there was a best dressed award, you'd for sure be getting it."
JC eased up and smirked. "Thanks, bro."
Nick walked back to the middle. "Now that we've talked to a good handful of people, it's time to announce who's going to be taken to Camp Wawanakwa to help the finalists complete their epic final challenge! I see the helicopters coming in the distance!" An intern ran up and gave Nick two small sheets of paper. "Alright, I'll do Team Eli first since there isn't much to choose from. Helping out Eli will be... the twins! Colin and Colleen!"
"Great, a chance to keep my mind distracted." Colin said.
"And a chance to finally work my brother!" Colleen smiled. "The time we had on the same team was too short."
"For Team Vincent." Nick flipped to the other note. "Drumroll please... We have... Maddie. No surprise there. And... TJ!"
"What?!" Janae shot up, then quickly checked herself and sat back down.
"I see some people are confused by Vincent's second choice." Nick smirked.
"I just thought... Since we worked so well together on the show." Janae crossed her arms in defeat. "Whatever."
"Well if you want to talk about it..." Nick smiled.
"I don't." Janae said. "Clearly he thinks TJ is better for his chances, or whatever."
"Personally I'm honored!" TJ smiled.
"Let's get you four helpers up and out." Nick said, then turned to face the camera. "Coming up, the finalists compete in part 1 of the final challenge for a whopping half a million big ones! Then, I'll be talking about the tightest alliance of the season with Delanie, and we'll hear more about Nolan's interesting strategy from the man himself. Stay tuned!"
Chris stood im front of Eli and Vincent, with their helpers right next to them. "Time to explain your final challenge, the big one! You better pay attention because I'm not repeating myself. This season's theme was simple: seasons! And we really wanted to make sure you got to experience all four atmospheres and moods."
"You could have done a better job with that one..." Maddie said.
"Shut it." Chris snapped. "For the final challenge of the season, we are going to combine all four seasons in a spectacular fashion ending with the ever so famous race to Boney Island."
"How original." Colin said.
"Be quiet!" Chris snapped. "Geez, you both picked such yappy helpers."
Vincent and Eli both shrugged.
"For the first part of the final challenge, we're going to make this a little fun for you. A costume contest! Pretend it's Halloween. Your helpers must put you in some big, elaborate, over the top face makeup and dress you up in the wackiest, most innovative halloween costume using supplies ONLY located in the arts and crafts center."
"Isn't that more of like a Total Drama Holiday challenge?" Eli asked.
Chris rolled his eyes. "Can we stop the comments?! I'M the host here, ME!"
"I mean, Halloween does happen in the fall... I get it." Vincent said.
Chris stormed out.
Confession Cam:
(Chris McLean) He is very aggravated. "These contestants are SO annoying. That coupled with this season's subpar ratings really gets me bothered, yo. Just shut up and hear me out!" He tries to keep his composure. "Anyway, what the little brats didn't hear is that these costumes will determine what advantage they may or may not get in the next part of the challenge, so stay tuned."
The finalists and their helpers made their way to the arts and crafts center, where Chef was waiting to supervise them.
"I wonder how long we have to do this." Eli said.
Everyone looked over at Chef. "I don't know!" He yelled. "If it were up to me I'd give you both penalties for being so loud-mouthed! That would never fly in... Ah whatever. Half hour."
"Let's be quick then." Colleen grabbed Eli and placed him in a chair. "I don't think there's any makeup here, so I'm just gonna have to use paint. Colin, get a costume together, stat."
"What am I gonna be?" Eli asked.
"I dunno." Colleen said. "We're just gonna wing it."
"I-"
"We barely have any time!" Colleen said. "Colin, give me a character from one of your animes or Mario party or something! No, someone scary!"
Colin thought briefly, then lit up. "Oh, I know!" He exclaimed. He then whispered in his sister's ear.
"That's pretty easy." Colleen said. "Are you sure it'll be enough?"
"It's not over the top but it's pretty well known!" Colin said. "Eli will kill it!"
Eli just watched the two interact. "Oh boy." He said as Colleen took her time just wiping his face down.
"Don't worry," Colleen said. "This one will be pretty basic, but you'll do just fine bringing it to life." She giggled.
"If you say so." Eli said. "I trust that you two will help me out."
"Of course we will." Said Colin as he started cutting up some fabric.
"Colin, you know how to make costumes?" Eli asked.
"No idea." Colin said. "We're gonna find out. Time crunch."
Confession Cam:
(Eli) "So part one is underway! Hopefully picking Colin and Colleen doesn't bite me in the ass. They seem to work well together, so hopefully that helps me out too. I'm pretty excited to see what they come up with. I don't really get to dress up for Halloween that often back home."
Vincent sat and watched Maddie and TJ discuss what they wanted to do with him.
"We don't have much time, ladies." Vincent said, trying to push them to a decision.
"Ah think dressin him up as Chris would be hilarious!" TJ said.
"That's not over the top though, you heard Chris." Maddie said. "I'm thinking like, a skeleton. I did skeletal makeup on myself one year."
"Ah was hoping you'd be better at makeup than I am." TJ giggled.
"Well, my best friend Isabel did it for me..." Maddie said nervously. "I think she followed a youtube tutorial or something. Maybe I can try to remember that."
"Ah hope you do." TJ said. "But Ah still think a Chris McLean costume would be killer!"
"You think it would give us an advantage?" Maddie asked.
"An unfair one, for sure." Vincent said. "Or maybe he'll even hate it. It isn't elaborate enough."
"Oh please." Maddie laughed. "The way Chris gets his face caked up before every shot, it would definitely be over the top."
Everyone laughed.
"Oh! Oh! Ah know!" TJ excitedly whispered in Maddie's ear.
Maddie lit up. "Wait a minute. That's perfect! Go get started on the costume, quick!"
"Will do!" TJ smiled and got to work.
Maddie looked Vincent in the eye. "Ready, partner?"
"I trust you both." Vincent said. "Get my face caked up!" He laughed.
"We're gonna get you that half a million, friend." Maddie smiled and grabbed a paintbrush.
"So the challenge is on!" Nick smiled at the camera. "And while we wait 30 minutes to see just what our helpers and finalists come up with for this part of the challenge, I'll be asking a few questions to the brains behind the season's longest running alliance slash duo, Delanie!"
Delanie holds for the imaginary applause in her head. "Thank you, thank you." She smiles.
"Let's cut straight to the point." Nick smiled. "Now Delanie, you know I'm a huge fan of yours. I was so looking forward to working with you before Eli screwed you over!"
Delanie nodded. "Yeah I mean, it was you, me, and Kat to the end. That little pipsqeak tried to stop us but I came back with a vengeance."
"Not so much of a vengeance on Eli though." Nick said. "Why is it that you chose to work with him instead of getting your revenge."
Delanie sighed. "You see, my sweet revenge was coming. I was going to drag him so close to the money that he could almost taste it, and then cut him short. I knew I could do it. I was so close to doing it! Kat quitting and Vincent winning that last challenge is what really screwed up that plan."
"So you maybe waited too late to take him out." Nick said.
"I have no regrets." Delanie said. "I know that if it weren't for Kat's agents, I'd be standing there at the end and winning that title."
"Let's talk about what some fans like to call 'The Unholy Trinity' AKA the alliance between you, Kat and Maddie." Nick said.
Delanie laughed. "That short lived alliance. I love how the producers made it seem like a bigger deal than what it actually was. We were only using Maddie for that vote, maybe the next one. I never truly trusted her."
"You know, if you actually would have trusted one another, you could have been very successful." Nick said.
"Eh." Delanie shook her head. "I don't think Maddie would have been able to let go of Vincent."
Nick countered her. "Well, you clearly had Maddie as the designated third member and she knew it."
Delanie nodded. "Exactly. It would have been a showdown. Them versus us. And they're way more athletic than we were."
"I have so many questions but so little time." Nick cut her off. "It seemed like you genuinely wanted Kat there at the end with you, but you found her... distractions with Colin to get in the way of that."
Delanie nodded. "Yeah, I did. I knew having the two teen celebrities get to the end together would be iconic. Especially since they tend to pit us against each other in the blogs. I really wanted it to work, but of course our personalities clashed cause for me, it's either my way or the highway. That's just the type of mentality my family has. We're go getters. I saw Colin being in the way of that and leading to a potential downfall, so I cut him out of the game." She shrugs. "I don't care what anyone thinks about it. Let the fans hate on me cause I split up their precious ship. Whatever. I have no problem with Colin and Kat being a thing outside of the game."
"We love that." Nick clapped once. "I will say, you are MUCH more pleasant outside of the game than in."
Delanie rolled her eyes. "I'm a method actress, remember? I know the big bads always make it far. Heck, look at who our past two winners were. They weren't your typical nice guys. I thought playing it up for the camera would work in my favor, which it kind of did cause I was brought back. But I do admit maybe I went too far at some points." She shrugs. "Still, I don't regret it. Sometimes I'm a bitch. A talented one at that." She smirks.
"Thank you, Delanie. I think we can all agree that Miss Delanie Rios is THAT girl." Nick said, trying not to completely fangirl over her remarks. He looked at the camera. "I don't have much time left, so we'll come here to Nolan for one, brief, question."
Nolan looked up, not really wanting to talk.
"Really quick." Nick said. "Nolan, you have a bunch of fans who are obsessed with you. Give us some insight on the die strategy."
"Well." Nolan nodded. "This die just gives me all the answers. I can tell you it's secret, but I won't, cause then it wouldn't be a secret."
Nick kept his smile. "Okay... Well that's Nolan for you everyone! Nolan, few things got you really excited this season, but what we do know about you is that you're a bit of a gambler, obviously." He points at the die. "You also got excited over fish and chips."
"I do fry up a mean fish and chips." Nolan smirked.
"Well, I'd love to try them someday!" Nick laughed. "Nolan, I'm excited to see where your life goes after this is all over with." He looks back at the camera. "It's time to reveal the costumes of Eli and Vincent. Our next twist is that us, the losers, will get to decide who gets the advantage in part 2. Let's see and judge these costumes!" Nick points to the screen.
First, Eli appeared on the screen. A few people let out some chuckles. Delanie and Lesley straight up laughed.
"That's the best they could come up with?" Gloria asked.
"It suits him." Janae smirked.
Eli had fake scars all over his face, which was painted to be pale. A scar ran through his eye and it looked like there was some orange in his hair. He wore a red striped shirt and overalls.
"Looks like they made Eli to be the serial killer doll Chucky!" Nick announced.
"That is one ugly doll..." Arin said, disgusted.
Lesley laughed again. "Is he supposed to look intimidating at all?"
"A for effort!" Nick smiled. "The makeup isn't half bad! We knew who Eli was supposed to be, that's great! Now let's see what they did with Vincent."
Vincent appears, rocking a dapper striped button up and pants, with elaborate skull face makeup. He straightened the bowtie he was wearing and winked at the camera.
"Interesting." Nick said.
"A skeleton." Lesley said. "That's the best they can do?"
"It's nightmare before christmas." Delanie said.
Vincent pulled out a Santa hat and put it on.
"Correct!" Nick said. "Vincent is dressed as Jack Skellington!" He pauses and touches his ear, listening to the earpiece that had been there the whole time. "And now we have to vote ASAP! The player who wins will recieve an advantage in the second half of the challenge! So get ready and place your votes on the remotes below your seats!"
Everyone retrieved their remotes and looked at their two options.
"Sucks to be Team Eli." Janae said as she placed her vote for Vincent.
"The odds are stacked against us, eh?" Nolan said to JC.
"Whatever, they both look terrible." JC said. "At least you can tell with Eli."
"The votes are in!" Nick announced. "Back to you, Chris!"
Vincent and Eli sat in the mess hall with their helpers, waiting for Chris to announce who won.
Chris walked in smirking. "I will say, you both don't look as bad as I thought it would turn out. Anyways, Vincent, it looks like you got the most votes. You get the advantage in the next part of the challenge!"
"No surprise there." Eli said. "This was a popularity contest."
"Maybe they just liked my costume more." Vincent said.
"Sure, we'll go with that." Eli rolled his eyes. "I haven't had it easy this entire game, like you have."
Chris was ready to shut them up, but he stopped and listened with a grin on his face.
"Easy?" Vincent was annoyed. "I had to work my butt off to get here. Everyone wanted me out!"
"Yeah, whatever. I'm sure you're not used to being on the outs, right?" Eli crossed his arms.
"Let's not judge each other here, man." Vincent said. "I competed in the same challenges you did. I would have been in danger had I lost just one of those. You weren't ever really in danger."
"You got to chill out while I had to make sure I wasn't the one going home every round!" Eli said. "I'm not one to judge, but you can't say you worked your butt off to get here the way I did."
Vincent dropped it. "Look, I get it. Our paths to the end are different. We both worked hard, we both deserve to be here."
"Sure, Vincent." Eli said.
Confession Cam:
(Eli) "At the end of the day, he's still a jock. He probably plays dumb locker room games with his jock friends and spends his time in the gym all day and he's strong and tough and is great at hockey and everyone probably loves him for it." He says. "Can I just have something for once?" He seems like he's already accepted defeat.
(Vincent) "Eli is a tough cookie to crack." He says. "I'll just let my frustrations out in the challenge."
Eli and Vincent stood next to each other in their costumes, ready for war.
"For part 2, we're going to race through this obstacle course!" Chris pointed at a small building with two doors that had been placed on the beach. "Yes, it is inside this building because it's a seasons simulator!" He chuckled. "You will make your way through a winter, spring, summer, AND fall simulation, with surprises along the way of course." He smiled and looked over at Chef, who had a remote control in his hand. "Your only task is to get out alive."
Eli frowned. "Fun."
Vincent cracked his wrists. "So what's the advantage here?"
"The advantage, Vincent, is that you get to skip a season of your choice." Chris said. "Choose wisely, you're making the decision right now."
"Like, right now right now?" Vincent asked.
"Yes." Chris said as he walked up to the helpers and gave them each a map of the simulator. He handed Maddie and Colin a walkie-talkie, then handed the other pairs to Vincent and Eli. "Your helpers will guide you through the obstacles, they know what you should be looking out for."
"Um, so I can definitely do winter, spring is pretty wet... Spring! I'll skip spring." Vincent said.
"Final choice? Okay!" Chris clapped. "Let's get started! Eli, you'll be going through the door on the left, Vincent, you'll be on the right." A big yacht pulled up next to the dock and Chris got on board. "I'll see you both on Boney Island, where I'll crown the next Total Drama champion!" He sped away.
"Okay... So?" Eli looked at Vincent.
Vincent smirked a bit. "You know, you're a killer Chucky."
Eli rolled his eyes. "You didn't need to be that costume to be a nightmare."
"Good one." Vincent said.
"ALRIGHT FINAL 2!" Chef's yell startled them. "Get ready for this one, and try not to use up all your energy! You got a long way to go!"
Eli sighed and got ready. "This is so not fair."
"On your marks!"
"I'll take my time." Vincent smirked.
"Get set!"
"You're going down." Eli said.
"GO!"
Eli and Vincent both sprinted to their respective doors and ran right in, the doors slamming behind them.
"Is this thing working?" Maddie asked into the walkie-talkie. "Vincent, how is it in there?"
"Yeah." Vincent replied. The room was freezing cold. He could see his own breath as he talked. "Feels like winter alright."
Eli was shivering. "J-jesus! This room is freezing!"
Colin looked at the paper in his hand and communicated with Eli. "Eli, listen to me. You're gonna want to brace yourself as soon as possible-"
Chef smirked and pressed a button before anyone could explain anything else.
"Brace myself?!" Eli replied. "For what?"
In what seemed like the blink of an eye, the ceiling opened for both Eli and Vincent and down came a huge avalanche of snow, burying them both before they could even think. Static was heard on the walkie-talkie's.
"Well, here we go with the winter simmy." Colleen said.
"Simmy?" Colin asked.
"Don't question me, brother." She said, then held her hand out for the walkie-talkie, which he gave to her. "Eli, you okay?"
Eli stuck his head out of some snow and quickly dodged a shovel that dropped shortly after. "I'm alive!" He said. "Freezing, but alive."
Vincent dug himself out of the snow and looked up a bit late, as the same shovel Eli narrowly missed came down and landed right on his head, knocking him out for a couple seconds. "Ugh!" He let out from the sharp pain.
"You good, Vincent?" TJ asked.
"Uh, yeah." He replied, looking around.
"Listen here carefully," TJ said.
As TJ talked to Vincent, Colleen talked to Eli. "So the winter challenge of this simulation is to grab that shovel..."
"And dig, dig, dig..." TJ said.
"You gotta shovel the snow from one side of the room to the other to get to the next room..." Colleen said.
"But ya gotta look for some key that'll unlock that door..." TJ continued.
"Once you find the key and have enough of the door cleared out, you can move on to the next room." Colleen finished.
"The next room would be the spring room, so your next door will be unlocked, just run right through it." TJ said.
"Okay." Both Eli and Vincent said. They both grabbed the shovel and started digging. Vincent started in one corner and Eli started right where the door would be.
"And they're off!" Nick said as a projector displayed both finalists doing the challenge behind him, with their supporters watching. "While Eli and Vincent go through the first season of this little simulator Chris brought in, I'm going to go ahead and talk about two highly talked about love triangles of the season." Nick giggled. "We love drama! There seems to be a love triangle every season at this point, this one is no exception. Let's come over to Janae and ask her about the little love triangle between her, Vincent, and Maddie!"
Janae was as red as a tomato. "You've got to be kidding me." She said.
"I'm not!" Nick said, all excited. He had pulled out his handheld. "The fans, we want to know!"
Janae sighed, and looked at the camera. "I'll make this nice and short. There was absolutely NO love triangle between Vincent, Maddie, and I."
"Boo." Nick said. "We all saw it play out on our screens."
"That was just how it was edited." Janae said, holding her hand up. "We're all friendly. Vincent just likes us as friends... It was more of a struggle to recruit him as an ally, I think, than anything else."
Nick sucked his teeth. "Tough break." He slowly rolled his eyes. "Do you think, maybe, he plays for my team?"
Janae crossed her arms. "No." She said dryly. "I'm sure we would know that. I mean, he barely kept his violin secret."
"It's just, suspicious, no?" Nick asked. "He had all these girls all over him, and he rejected everyone."
"Maybe he just wanted to keep his head in the game." Nolan said.
"That checks out." Janae agreed.
Nick looked back into the camera. "Either way, I think we can all agree that Vincent was a total heartthrob this season, and he basically friend zoned everyone. Maybe he has a girlfriend back home?" Nick shrugged, then brought his attention over to Lesley and Arin, who were sitting next to each other. "Now, onto our next ACTUAL love triangle that happened early in the season, we have the-"
"Love triangle?" Lesley smirked, knowing what was coming.
"Ahem." Nick gave him a sharp glance. "The love triangle of Lesley, Arin, and Colleen!"
Arin was daydreaming, and snapped out of it as she heard her name. She smiled at the camera and tucked her loose hairs behind her ear.
"There isn't much to talk about here, either." Lesley said, reclining back and putting his hands behind his head.
Nick frowned. "Come on, you gotta give me something, please?"
Lesley grinned, then tapped Arin on the shoulder. "Hey, pretty girl, you got anything to say about me?"
"Uh, other than you being, like, pretty hot?" Arin asked.
"We know that already." Lesley said.
"Uh, you're a pretty great kisser." Arin giggled. "And, like, your brown eyes..."
"We knew that too." Lesley quickly said.
"I didn't know that." Nick winked.
"Look, the little fling that happened between Arin and I was just that, a fling." Lesley said. "I don't know why Colleen got so jealous."
"Maybe it's cause she actually liked you." Nick said.
"You know," Lesley sat up and got closer to Nick. "I kind of wish I could go back, try again with Colleen because honestly, she seemed like a good person for me."
Nick swooned. "Aw, you said the bare minimum and my heart skipped a beat. SO sweet."
Lesley crossed his arms again and rolled his eyes. "The truth is the bare minimum?"
"Actions speak louder than woooooorrrrdddds." Nick dragged it out in a playful tone.
"It's a little late for that." Lesley said.
"You never know what the future holds." Nick smiled. He then walked back to the middle and faced the camera. "Let's check back in with our finalists! Word on the street is that their almost done with their winter task!"
Eli took a deep breath as he looked in front of him. "I cleared the door, now I just gotta find the key!" He said to Colin and Colleen.
Vincent smiled as he picked the key up. "Okay, I found the key, just gotta clear the door!" He said.
Eli started digging around the piles of snow he had yet to touch, desperately seeking the key. Meanwhile, Vincent held the key between his teeth as he vigorously shoveled his way to the door.
Confession Cam:
(Eli) "Maybe I should have looked for the key first, because I may or may not have just buried it deeper in the snow I was shoveling out of my way."
"Jeez! I can barely feel my fingers." Eli gasped. "It's so cold."
"You're so close to finding it." Colin communicated to him. "Believe in yourself!"
Vincent was really close to digging out the entire silhouette of the door, all he needed.
Finally, Eli felt something in the snow, and pulled out the key. "I found it!" He exclaimed. He quickly rushed to open the door and stepped into the next room. The door shut behind him. It was no longer freezing, but the room felt very humid. It was a little bit warm too, and the lights were dimmed. He didn't have much time to look around before he heard the small cackle of thunder forming. Then, water droplets started falling from the ceiling. "Uh..."
"Looks like it's gonna be a thunderstorm." Colin communicated. "Very spring-y of Chris."
At this point, Vincent had dug up a clear path to the door and quickly unlocked the door and slid through. He ran to the door at the other end of the spring room. The next key was just dangling in front of it. "Bingo." He said and ripped the key off its string, activating a loud blast of thunder than caused him to jump. He quickly unlocked the door and went through it.
The thunder kept building up and Eli nervously looked up. "He's going to have at least a 5 minute advantage on you because you're gonna have to withstand this for about 3 more minutes." Colin yelled through the walkie-talkie.
"THREE MINUTES?!" Eli yelled back as another loud burst of thunder rang, so loud it caused him to drop the walkie-talkie and instinctively cover his ears. Then, the heavy rain started. It got heavier and heavier.
Colin and Colleen couldn't get a hold of Eli. They looked at each other, then at Chef, helpless.
"Relax!" Chef ordered. "These simulators aren't meant to KILL anybody... And the walkie-talkie's are waterproof."
Confession Cam:
(Vincent) "I'm so glad I skipped the spring portion of this simulator..." He sighed. "I was not ready to be rained on and have to endure all that. If I actually liked water I would have chosen water polo or something."
"Alright, I'm in the summer room." Vincent said.
"Okay, listen carefully." Maddie said. "Remember that one time when we were practicing treading in the water?"
Vincent rose an eyebrow. "Uh, yeah..." He said slowly into the walkie-talkie.
"That's gonna come in handy here." Maddie said.
"Why?" Vincent asked. Before Maddie could answer, warm water started filling up the room from under the door Vincent just came from. "No way." Vincent said. He started pacing the room. "This space is too tight."
Maddie could sense his nervousness. "Vincent, trust yourself. You got this. All you have to do is find the key to unlock the next door before the water reaches the top of the room."
"And what if I can't find the key?!" Vincent quickly responded.
"You're gonna find it." Maddie said. "Just start looking for it right now."
Vincent looked around the room. There wasn't really much at all. Actually, there was nothing but 4 walls. "What kind of summer simulation is this?!"
Eli was in the spring room, sitting with his body in a tucked position in the corner as rain pelted him and thunder clapped every few seconds. He was humming to himself and had his eyes shut. He was on the verge of freaking out. Then it all stopped. The rain, the thunder, even the lights went from being dimmed to brightness. It was finally over. He gasped and breathed deeply. "That was the worst 3 minutes of my life."
"Eli? Eli?" Both Colin and Colleen were calling out for him. "Are you okay?"
Eli scooted over to where the walkie-talkie was and picked it up. "Yeah... Now that that's over, I feel better."
"Collect yourself." Colin said. "Then get up, Vincent is already in the lead."
"I know, I know." Eli got up and took a couple seconds. He then focused again. "What's next?"
The wall opened up to reveal a hidden compartment containing 3 plates of hidden foods.
"Eli, you're going to have to finish these disgusting foods to get the key to the next room." Colin said.
"Easy." Eli said. "Remember when I ate that snake soup like it was nothing?"
"Ew." Colleen said with a disgusted look on her face. "You just unlocked a memory I didn't want to remember."
"If I remember correctly, you didn't eat it." Eli said as he unveiled the first plate. He tried not to gag. The strong odor was evident in the cup that was in front of him. "What is this?!"
Confession Cam:
(Chef) "Remember the infamous brunch of disgustingness from Island?" He chuckles. "We brought back the liquid skunk spray shakes!"
Eli gagged as he quickly downed the shake, almost vomitted, but swallowed it back down.
"That definitely wasn't pleasant." Colleen said.
"Not at all." Eli burped, the stench visibly leaving his mouth. "God that stinks." He opened up the next plate, which had a little covered shot glass filled with live ants. "Oh, really Chris?"
Confession Cam:
(Chef) "Not EVERYTHING is Chris." He said, annoyed. "That was all me."
The room was nearly full and Vincent was working out trying to tread in this water as it rose. Floating in the water were beach balls, bottles of sunscreen, and dead fish. Vincent had already gone through the bottles and was popping each beach ball looking for this key. "How much longer until this room fills up?!" He asked, looking up.
"You don't have much longer." TJ said. "And ya better hurry, Eli is catching up!"
"Damn it." Vincent said, trying to speed up the process. He popped the last beach ball. Nothing. "Are you kidding me?!" He looked at what appeared to be his only open left: the fish. "Don't tell me its in..." He then spotted the exact fish that was shaped differently than the rest. It had the key inside of it. "There it is!" He swam to the fish and grabbed it. "Oof, slimy." He said to himself as he squeezed the fish, effectively popping the key right out. He grabbed the key before it could float to the bottom and kissed it before taking one last breath, diving down and swimming toward the door. He slid the key in and unlocked it, causing the room to instantly drain and as he changed from one room to the other, the door slammed shut behind him. In this final room, the theme was very autumn like. Colored leaves on the floor and what looked like over 100 pumpkins lining up the room.
We see what Eli has endured. He had to eat a shot glass full of live ants, followed by a bowl of large worms. He got the key and moved into the next room, where the water was slowly filling it up. He did what Vincent had done, looking for the key in the floating objects. He started with the beach balls, not finding any key in those.
"Look for the key in the fish!" Colleen instructed after overhearing TJ and Maddie.
"Got it." Eli said, and swam over to a fish. "So it's inside the fish?"
"Yup!" Colleen said. "Should be easy to spot and get out."
"...Okay." Eli looked at nearly every fish until he found the one that was not like the others. He swam to it and grabbed it.
In the fall themed room, Vincent had a bat in his hand. He looked at all the pumpkins, each varying in shape and size.
"The key is in one of these pumpkins." Maddie said through the walkie-talkie.
"So get to smashin!" TJ said immediately after.
"Fun." Vincent said as he smashed the first pumpkin with the bat.
"Our finalists are in speed mode right now. You can tell they both want the money bad!" Nick said, walking as the camera followed him. "So we're just gonna ask one quick question this time." He went to Gloria. "First of all, Gloria, you look SO beautiful."
Gloria smiled and held her wrists up as she did before to show off the jewels on her wrists and fingers. "Thank you."
"Now, for 11th place, you sure did seem to rack up a bunch of money." Nick said.
"Aye." Gloria nodded. "Was easy for me to do, always is."
"We saw." Nick smirked. "My question for you, though, are you are TJ still friends? We saw you get pretty upset with her before you left."
"Of course we are." Gloria said. "It was all a big misunderstanding. I just wish that Kat were here so I could give her a piece of my mind!"
"I don't think she was allowed back by her team." Nick shrugged. "But I was instructed not to talk about it much." He said, annoyed.
"Well that famous girl sure did a lot to not be here and talk about it right now." Gloria said. "I probably would have got a good chunk of money from her too."
"All I really wanted to know was if you and TJ had made amends, which it sounds like you did so that's nice!" Nick said. "Gloria, do you think you would have made a good villain if you had stuck around longer?"
"Me? A villain?" Gloria scoffed. "No way. I was just here for my money. And look, I lasted long enough. 11 episodes out of 18 ain't that bad."
"You're right, you're right." Nick nodded. "But some fans do stan you as a villain, you know."
"That makes no sense." Gloria crossed her arms. "I'm nothing like that chick." She pointed at Delanie.
Delanie rose an eyebrow. "Oh please, everyone was here for the money and were going to get it any way they could."
"All I'm saying is that you're the villain here and I'm not." Gloria snapped at her.
Delanie crossed her arms. "Remind me, wares girl, your placement number?"
Gloria glared at her. "Remind me how much money you ACTUALLY made?"
Delanie pointed in her direction. "I'm Delanie (bleep)ing Rios. Do NOT disrespect me."
Nick got in between the two. "OKAYYYYY! Let's move on to..." He looked at the other people sitting around. "Luigi! Hello!"
Luigi looked up, not expecting Nick to be right in front of him.
"Wow, even sitting down he's at eye level with me." Nick said. "Luigi, the question on everyone's mind: are you really just a big creep or is that a big misunderstanding?"
Luigi nodded. "I'd say I'm very misunderstood."
"He's a creep." Janae said.
"Beautiful, I try to respect you as much as I can." Luigi said.
"Stop calling me that!" Janse said. She turned to Nick. "He swears he's in a relationship with me."
"I just want to treat you nice." Luig said.
"Oh...Kay." Nick walk away before he could hear anything else from the two. "Now back to-"
"Hold up." Interruped JC. "You aren't gonna ask me anything?"
"Uhhhhh..." Nick tried to find the right words. "I don't think we have any more time... Back to the finalists, who are both in the last room!"
Eli was smashing pumpkins at a much slower rate than Vincent was. Vincent had nearly smashed them all.
"This is going to take forever." Eli said.
"Just trust your intuition." Colin said.
Eli stopped for a second and looked around at all the pumpkins. Vincent kept smashing each pumpkin in his room in quick succession, taking a couple seconds to breathe here and there. Eli pointed at the ones he hadn't smashed and counted them. Or maybe he was doing eeny meeny miny moe, because he stopped at one pumpkin and smashed it. At the same time, Vincent smashed the last pumpkin. They both lifted a key at the same time. Eli smiled. Vincent let out a deep breath. They both unlocked the last door and stepped out.
"Are you kidding me?!" Vincent asked as they both stepped out onto the beach at the same time. "This must have been rigged."
"That's surprising coming from your athlete mouth." Eli said, smiling after realizing the advantage Vincent got didn't really help him in the end.
Confession Cam:
(Eli) We see what he had to endure, as most of his face makeup had run down his face, his striped shirt was pretty ripped and the overalls he was wearing was half on. "That whole simulation thing... Not pleasant." He said, shaking his head and with a very serious look on his face. "Not pleasant at all. Very much so final challenge material."
(Vincent) His makeup was mostly gone and the wet suit he had on looked heavy. "I had a whole advantage and at the end of the day it gave me nothing?" He laughs while shaking his head. "I can't believe you Chris. Well, I'm going to make this boat ride worth it for sure."
Chef approached the two, whistling the tune row, row, your boat, gently down the stream... Maddie, TJ, Colin and Colleen followed behind him. "Alright, finalists!" He announced. "You two have made it to the final part of the challenge! You, along with your helpers, are going to row your butts to Boney Island. It's simple. Whoever gets there first is the winner!"
"You made me go through all of that just to have the last part be a boat race?!" Eli shook his head.
"Tired us out." Vincent said.
"That's right! It was NEVER going to be that easy for you two!" Chef said. "We made it harder since the wind is blowing in that direction anyway. Get to it!"
Eli and Vincent both ran to their boats, followed by their helpers. Eli, Colin, and Colleen all pushed the boat in the water while Vincent shoved the whole thing by himself. Everyone hopped on, grabbed an oar, and started rowing toward Boney Island.
Confession Cam:
(Eli) "This is going to be the hardest part for sure." He takes a deep breath and looks up, then at the camera. "Have you seen his arms?!"
"We got this!" TJ smiled as they all got to work. "We're all so strong!"
"We'll get there pretty fast." Maddie said. "It's not too far."
"The wind will help us tons." Vincent said. He was in the front while Maddie and TJ sat behind him.
On Eli's boat, he was in the back and Colin and Colleen sat in front of him.
"Just one more challenge to go, Eli." Colleen said.
"Vincent is like the final boss of the game." Colin said. "He won't be easy to beat, but he's beatable."
"Definitely." Eli nodded. "Let's do this."
Confession Cam:
(Vincent) "I'm so close." He breathes. "So, so close. I've worked my butt off to get to this point. I deserve this more than anyone. I'm a tough cookie. I knew I'd have to fight my way to the end. This is my time." He makes a fist and shoots it up. "LET'S GO!"
Both boats weren't too far off from each other. Vincent's was in the lead, and they were about halfway to Boney Island when a nice yacht pulled up close to them.
"Is that Chris?" Maddie asked. Her answer came in the form of a tennis ball hitting her in the arm. "Ow!" She dropped the oar. Suddenly, a bunch of tennis balls were being launched their way.
"Oh no, not again, please!" Eli said, cowering down in the boat in fear as tennis balls flew past them. Colin and Colleen kept rowing as they dodged.
"Eli, you have to get up and row with us." Colleen said. "Now more than ever. I see the shore!"
"Yeah, Eli." Colin said. "We need all hands on deck if you want to beat Vincent. He has too much power."
"That black eye lasted days! And I still need new glasses, these are being held up with tape." Eli said.
"Eli, think about what you told Nolan when you were handcuffed to him." Colin said.
"Come on, Eli." Colleen said, dodging another ball. "This is supposed to be YOUR victory. Don't let these balls take that away from you-" A ball hit her on the side of the head, hard, knocking her over. "AH." She screamed. "Screw you, Chris!" She got back up and looked down at Eli. "GET UP."
Eli nodded. "Okay, okay! Give me an oar."
Colin handed him one, ricocheting a ball off of it as he passed it over.
"Thanks." Eli said and he placed it in position. "Let's do this. On three. Ready?" He looked at Colin, who nodded, then to Colleen, who nodded. "One, two..."
Vincent, on the other hand, was rowing his boat efficiently. Both Maddie and TJ could barely keep up with him.
"Slow down." TJ said, annoyed.
"Slow down?" Vincent kept his rhythm. "This is not the time to slow down!"
"But we can barely keep up with you." Maddie said, exhausted. "You're too strong. We're clashing with the water, it's slowing us down."
"You know what?" Vincent breathed heavily. "Just stop. I can do this."
"Are you sure about that?" Maddie asked.
"Yeah." Vincent said, putting more effort into it.
"Don't get cocky, now." TJ said.
"I'm not!" Vincent was clearly nervous. "I'm just so close, if I win or lose I want it to be completely on me. I got this."
Maddie and TJ looked at each other, concered, then stopped.
"Here they come!" Nick announced. Everyone was watching intently as both boats approached the shore. "Vincent is currently in the lead!"
Vincent was in the lead, but Eli's boat pulled up next to him. He worked even harder. Both boats pulled ahead of the other in a back and forth motion.
"Now, Eli is in the lead!" Nick announced. "Now Vincent is! Now Eli is! Now Vincent is! WHEW-" He wiped a bead of sweat off his forhead. "This is a TIGHT race!"
Both boats approached the shore, and both finalists looked exhausted. They were battling for dominance but in the end only one person came out on top.
Chris finally appeared, pushing Nick to the side. "And the winner... of Total Drama Seasons... IS..."
A boat reached the shore about two seconds before the second one did. There was a clear winner. Everyone jumped off their boats and the winner ran up to Chris and jumped for joy.
"The winner of Total Drama Seasons: Eli!" Chris exclaimed. Nolan and JC cheered, followed by Vincent's supporters, who all congratulated Eli on his win. Colin and Colleen hugged each other. Vincent clapped for Eli.
Confession Cam:
(Eli) He is beaming. "I did it! I really did it! I beat the odds! I'm a Total Drama winner! Half a million in my posession! Take that, world!"
(Vincent) He holds his head up high. "I have never been a sore loser. I'm happy for Eli, he got the best of me. I'm not mad about my placement. I did my best... And I'll let the frustrations out in the rink."
Nick smiled. "I'm here with Eli and Vincent for some last questions before we wrap up. Vincent, how are you feeling right now?"
Vincent smiled. "You know, I didn't win but this experience has been so good for me. I think what I'll take most from this is a new level of confidence and, you know, just not caring about what other people think of me. I have many talents that I shouldn't be ashamed of."
"Well said." Nick tried not to swoon. He looked over at Eli. "Eli, once again, congratulations! That was well earned." Eli nodded and smiled, with the suitcase carrying the money in hand. "Eli, how do you feel?"
"Ecstatic." Eli said.
"What's next?" Nick asked. "What are you planning on doing with the money?"
Eli nodded. "Well, I'm definitely using a chunk of it to fund my college tuition in the future. And I plan on using my newfound fame to try and influence some anti-bullying laws in schools all over Canada. It also wouldn't hurt to donate some money to some charities or something."
"Nice!" Nick said. "A true people pleaser. We admired how you played the game this season. You had your villainous moments, but I argued that you were more of an anti-hero." He giggled.
"Thanks." Eli smiled.
Chris appeared once more. "Well, that's it for another season! Wild!" He grinned at the camera. "But the fun isn't over yet, because we're filming the next one ASAP. The viewers at home have seen a few of the contestants we're bringing back for our next season: Total Drama Underrated! We're going to be having a lot of fun and introducing some new twists! And four lucky contestants from this season will get to be on it, and we're going to find out which four, right, now!"
The contestants, hearing this news, either groaned or cheered depending on who you're looking at.
Chef came in and ushered the four onto a seperate boat as Chris announced their names. "Our four lucky returnees will be Luigi, Janae, Lesley, and Colleen!"
"Sweet." Lesley cracked his fingers.
"Does he have to be on it?!" Janae pointed at Luigi, who gave her a creepy smile.
Colleen shrugged. "I love a good second chance."
"Good luck." Colin said, then looked over at Lesley.
Colleen realized she would have to play with Lesley again, then sighed.
Chris threw his hands up. "Until next time! This has been Total. Drama. SEASONS!"
And just like that, after a long time coming, Total Drama Seasons is over. Thank you to those who have stuck with me. I promised I would finish this and I did! What's next? I plan to continue with what I had planned. Total Drama Underrated (will take challenge suggestions), followed by Total Drama All-Stars. Make sure you turn those notifications on for the story! I'm not sure when I'll upload, since I'm starting a new job on a cruise ship (fun, right?!), but it should be within the next few months. I'm super excited to start a fresh story and I hope you come along for the ride!
XOXO, Storm.
