Episode 5: Truth or Static Shock
It was quiet. The animals were all hibernating inside their nests as the contestants were all sleep. A shadowy figure sneaks into the contestant's places of residence and attaches a collar onto their necks. Once the shadow was finished, it tiptoes out of sight. He moved so quietly, that no one could hear him.
But that wasn't the only strange thing that happened. As soon as the shadow left, the contestant's eyes all turned, and they started to levitate into the air. Their collars were glowing green, as they levitate to be where the shadowy figure was, which was the location where the Campfire Ceremony was usually located.
The contestants floated over to where their teammates were and landed on the logs in perfect positions as they straightened themselves out. The green eyes disappear as they awakened themselves thanks to the power of the collar. The shadowy figure laughed as the light from the moon revealed who it really was and that was TST.
"Hello, former teammates!" TST shouted. The contestants all looked at TST, but they couldn't believe that TST was standing in front of them. It had been a while since they have seen their former contestant since he's been voted off the island.
"What are you doing here?" Asuka asked. "I thought you were voted off?"
"They could've at least found another host that was attractive." Jun chuckled. Jun took a bite off an apple that he had in his hand and started chewing in a very obnoxious way. But before he took a bite of the apple, he had to make sure that the apple was cleaned.
TST glared at Jun for his offensive comment and thought that it would be best to tell them the truth. "Shelly is taking a little vacation and the network asked me to fill in for her, while she recovers." He explained, but the contestants weren't that stupid and figured out what was really going on with Shelly.
Lulu: I'm going to take a wild guess and assume that she's in rehab.
Corey: In rehab.
Grimmy: She's in rehab, it's so obvious.
Corey was a little angry that Jun said that to TST. "Don't you think that was a little rude?"
"No sis is wasn't. I was just telling him how it is." Jun replied.
Corey felt a little unease about Jun and his behavior recently.
Corey: Is it me or is Jun a little bit of a *bleep*?
Jun: You gotta be honest with these hoes. If you're not honest with people, then you have them running around being all confident.
"Since we're being honest with each other, why don't we play a little game, Truth or Static Shock. A game of truth or dare, but with a twist. If you don't tell the truth than you'll get a shock. The person who will go depends on if they're randomly selected."Two interns roll up with a medium-sized flat-screen television and TST presses a button and everyone ends up getting shocked. It caused a lot of pain to the contestants, and even made some of their hair frizzles out, causing some of them to get afro.
"Isn't this illegal?" Grimmy asked she was still feeling affected by the shock.
"No, the lawyers cleared it." He said. As TST was standing there, he got an earful from the producers about making sure to bring in more drama since the ratings for the show have been slipping and the show was at risk for being canceled. "Okay, okay." He said back to the producers. He cleared his throat. "Let's get this challenge started! Who's ready to be embarrassed on national television?"
Brooke was a little concerned about this challenge because of her big secret. "Why are we doing a challenge like this now…?" She asked. "All of our other challenges have been completely tame."
TST was beginning to get annoyed by Brooke and decided to torture her. "Brooke for being so annoying and having so much to say...you are now a Fighting Ferret, so go and sit over with your new team!" TST points over to the log and Brooke decided to walk over to her new team.
"But why do I have to be put on this team?" Brooke asked.
"Because the show is…" He said, but he got yet another earful from the producers about not revealing why this challenge is a drastic turn compared to the others. "Don't worry about it, Ferret's you guys will go first. The first team to score five points will be the winner." He presses a button and pictures of the contestant's face spin on the television on the right side with the wording of truth or dare on the left. It lands on a picture of Jewel and Truth.
"Jewel…" TST reads a cue card that was specifically made for Jewel. "How many people on this island have you flirted with?"
"Only two." Jewel felt very confident about answering since she was the one who was doing the flirting. But that wasn't the truth and as a result of her lie, she ends up getting shocked along with the rest of her team.
Her team felt the pain of the shock but were confused about why it happened to them also. "Why did we get shocked, if it was Jewel who was the one who lied?" Asuka asked.
"To make it more fun." TST chuckled. "Time for the next victim." TST presses the button and the screens lands on Corey and dare. Everyone looked at Corey, as the camera panned over to him. He was feeling worried about going up next. TST reads from a cue card, but he had to shuffle them first. "TST your dare is to lick the toes of someone right next to you."
Corey wanted to throw up but didn't. He turned and saw that the person's toes he had to lick were Max's, which made him want to throw up even more.
Corey: Have you smelled Max's feet? It smells like dung that has been left out for weeks.
Max: I've been wearing these shoes for years. I don't believe in buying new pairs of shoes, that's for sissies.
Corey swallowed his spit. He wasn't sure if he could do it. But he was man enough to suck up his pride and do it for his team as he wanted his team to score a point. "I can do this!" Corey got up.
Max shrugged and took off her shoes. "I haven't washed my feet in three years." She said. It showed as a musty aroma came from her shoes. Everyone pinched their noses together, not wanting to smell that gross and disgusting foot.
"Eww gross!" Jun said.
"How can someone go so long without washing their feet?" Daniel asked.
"I'm grown. I can do whatever I want." Max responded.
Corey got close to her feet, but it was getting a little harder for him, as the smell of her foot was getting worse and worse. Corey's team cheered for him and the cheers from his team allowed Corey to lick Max's feet. But he immediately threw up on the side. But his act of heroism allows him to gain a point.
"One point for the Bees," TST said and the bees ended up cheering, but Corey was still throwing up.
Bumbling Bees: 0
Fighting Ferrets: 1
Corey: (Throws up.)
Corey stopped throwing up and was beginning to go back to normal. He went back and sat in his usual spot as his teams were waiting for the next person to be called upon. TST clears his throat as he was ready to get back to the challenge, he pressed the button and the next person was Brooke who had to tell the truth. Everyone was anticipating what Brooke's question was going to be, mostly because they were skeptical of her sexuality.
TST reads from a cue card. "Brooke is Valerie a friend or is she more?"
"Yes," Brooke responded. She got the question right and earned her team a point, but not everyone was a fan of how that question was framed. Asuka side-eyed her.
Bumbling Bees: 1
Fighting Ferrets: 1
Asuka: That was the vaguest question I have ever seen. (She folds her arms.) Seriously, how is that supposed to expose her for the fraud that she is?
Brooke: (Sighs.) I lucked out on that one.
The randomizer spins and landed on Asuka and truth. TST read from the cue card. "Asuka or should I say, Roxanne Mercury, have you ever bought subscribers for your youtube channel?" TST asked.
TST and everyone else stared at Asuka, while she was sweating and tugging the collar of her shirt. Asuka swallows her spit, as she didn't exactly know how to answer the question. "Well...um...I don't buy my subscribers." She said. But she lies, so Asuka and the rest of her team end up getting shocked.
Jewel didn't really care about the pain and was instead laughing. "You buy your subscribers?"
Asuka felt everyone laughing at her, but she was no longer feeling any shame about it. She got up and decided to stand up for herself. " So, what, I gotta do what I gotta do." She sits back down on the log and ignored the rest of the competitors.
TST pressed the button and the next person to go up was Lewis and it was once again the truth. TST reads from a cue card. "Lewis, have you ever told a lie?" TST asked.
"No, I haven't." Lewis was very proud of his answer and wasted no time in telling the truth. The answer was correct, and Lewis scored his team another point, making his team in the lead. They were on their way to win yet another challenge and the Fighting Ferrets were beginning to struggle.
Bumbling Bees: 2
Fighting Ferrets: 1
TST gets another earful from the producers and was beginning to get on his nerves. They really wanted him and the contestants to cause more drama for the show, so he tried to think of something that would make things more shocking. Until an idea clicked in his head. "Lewis, go over to the other team. You're a Fighting Ferret now." TST explained. "Hopefully this will cause more drama." He said.
Lewis gets up out of his seat and walks over to the other team, doing what he was told to do. But his other teammates weren't so thrilled with the recent change of teams, yet again. "This isn't fair!" Jun said. "Why does he get to go to another team?"
"Hey!" Lewis waved to Asuka, but she rejected him. Lewis used this as a chance to analyze Asuka and the rest of the team, thinking that it would be a good idea to get to know them.
Lewis: Now that I'm on another team, I can potentially get to learn more about them. I wonder what kind of weakness this team has compared to my other team.
TST pressed the button once again and it landed on Daniel and his challenge was that it was a dare. "Dylan, your dare is that you must kiss the person right next to you." He said. Everyone looked at Dylan as his challenge was to kiss...Max. The girl that he's been trying to hit on for the longest time but hasn't had the courage to do so. Dylan winks at Max, but Max wanted to throw up.
Max: I'd rather kiss my grandma then having to kiss...that… (Max vomits.)
Max was very unsure about kissing Dylan. It was the last thing that she wanted to do. She felt pressured as Dylan tried to wiggle his eyebrows in a sexy way and had to stop herself from throwing up yet again.
Dylan: How can anyone resist this? (Dylan flexes his arms.)
Grimmy could tell that Max was feeling unsure and needed to reassure her that everything was going to be okay. "Girl, you can do this! Just imagine that he a better-looking guy."
"I can't," Max said. "I'm just not physically attracted to him, or hell, attracted to him at all." Max tried looking at him once again and was having a hard time trying to bring up the courage to try and kiss him. "I don't know if I can do this."
"Come on...it won't be so hard," Dylan said. Dylan puckers out his lips and goes in for a kiss. But Max wasn't so sure if she could go on with it. She turned to the side and ended up throwing up on Dylan's face.
"I'm sorry, Dylan."
Dylan: Not the worst thing that a girl has ever done to me. Heck, I've been to jail and dealt with worse.
Since Dylan didn't complete the challenge, the rest of his team ended up getting shocked. They all turned to Dylan and started to glare at her. "Max, if we lose this challenge...you're the one whose going on!" Jun said.
Max: (She facepalms.) I should've sucked it up and kissed him.
TST was for the next person to go. TST pressed a button on the remote control and the randomizer spins and lands on Brooke for the second time and this time it was yet another truth. "Brooke...your question is...are you into girls?"
Everyone looked at Brooke, wanting to know how she was going to answer this question. Brooke started to sweat as she wasn't sure how she was going to answer this question. But she didn't want to watch her team lost, as she felt everyone staring at her. "I...I... I-"
"You better speak the truth." Asuka threatened. She started to crack her knuckles, which scared Max a little bit but not too much.
Brooke stood up. This was her moment, and everyone was on the edge of their seats. Everyone was excited for Brooke to finally come out of the closet and admit to everyone that she was a lesbian. Brooke opened her mouth and the anticipation was building up. "I...I... I am not into girls." As soon as she said that, Brooke and the rest of her team got shocked. The team wasn't happy with her, they were angry.
"Why are you lying?" An angry Jewel shouted. "We all know that you're gay."
"I'm not gay!" Brooke replied. "I'm completely straight." As she lied through her teeth, everyone glared at her. Asuka grabbed a rock and threw it at Brooke's eyes.
"Ouch!"
"Stop lying and maybe you won't get hit!" Asuka said.
Brooke: I know that I shouldn't keep lying, but I don't want my sexuality to define who I am. (Brooke sighed.) What am I going to do?
As time passed TST pressed a button and the next person to go up was Asuka and it was a dare. TST read from a cue card. "Asuka, your dare is to wrestle a bear," TST explained. As he was doing so, two interns, one with an afro and African American and the other Caucasian with a red and green mohawk. They brought out a bear that was chained up.
"Now Asuka...this is something that you don't have to do." TST reminds her. But at the same time, he was a little concerned that maybe she would get killed by doing this challenge. "But you should because think of the views!"
Jewel worried about her. "Asuka are you sure that wrestling a bear would be a good thing?"
Asuka chuckled. "I once beat up a group of girls who pulled a prank on me. I think I'll be fine when it comes to wrestling a bear." Asuka cracked her knuckles and got into her fighting pose. "Come on little beary, let's do this!" She was ready and raring to go.
The interns swallow their spit, but they were most nervous because they knew they would have to clean up a ton of blood if Asuka got hurt and didn't want to do that. They cringed. The interns got rid of the chains and the bear began roaring., everyone got scared. Jun hid behind Corey, as Lulu hid behind Brooke. Corey smiled when Jun hid behind him and winked.
"I can't have that bear ruining my face again," Jun said as Corey rolled his eyes.
Corey: I don't know what's worse, a bear standing right in my face or Jun's face dilemma.
The bear charged towards Asuka, but Asuka wasn't ready to give up. "Come on, mama's gonna show you what she's working with!" Asuka tackles the bear and starts beating the bear up. Asuka and the bear were even as everyone else was enjoying the fight, Grimmy was even eating popcorn.
Jewel: I have never seen a human fight a bear like that. Isn't that animal abuse?
Asuka was done fighting the bear and she won. She dusted her hands off as threw the bear onto the ground. "And that's how it's done." Her team was surprised by her accomplishments, but they didn't care as it scored them the point.
Bumbling Bees: 2
Fighting Ferrets: 2
"The teams are now even, both now having two!" TST said. The Ferrets cheered.
"Where even, suck an egg!" Asuka stuck out her tongue.
Corey got real angry and he glared at his team. "I am an all-star Football star! I cannot suffer a lost! I have never lost once in my whole entire life and I'm not about to start losing today!" Corey shakes Daniel.
TST pressed the button and Grimmy was the next person up, she got truth. "Grimmy, what is the most disturbing fact that you know?" He asked.
Grimmy cleared her throat. This was something that she was good at. "I'm a pro when it comes to creepy facts, so leave it to me!" She promised. "You know when you drop food on the ground and decide to live by the five-second rule?"
"Yeah…" Max said. Her along with the rest of the teens started nodding their heads.
"Well guess what!" Grimmy got all up in Lewis's personal space. "Every time food drops on the ground; tiny little insects always get on it!" She started laughing, but that was mostly due to her social awkwardness. Meanwhile, everyone else felt grossed out and began throwing up and feeling creeped out at the same time.
Daniel: I'm never dropping food on the ground again.
Bumbling Bees: 2
Fighting Ferrets: 3
The randomizer spins on Brooke and yet again it was truth. All eyes were on Brooke as she worried about what the question was going to be, yet again. Brooke hoped that she would get dare, but it didn't look like that was ever going to happen.
Brooke: Is this karma for me lying to everyone about my sexuality? I don't get why the universe is wanting me to confess.
TST reads from the cue card. "Brooke, who do you think is the hottest person on the show?"
Brooke could feel the stares of the other contestants. She felt like a ton of pressure was being put on her and she didn't like it. Brooke decides to look at Lewis and Lewis waves at her. She smiled, knowing what a good answer would be. "Lewis!" Knowing that she was lying, her collar ended up shocking her and the rest of her team. Her team was getting very fed up with Brooke's lying.
Grimmy: That girl lies so much! Is Brooke even her real name?
The randomizer lands on Daniel and it was a dare. TST read from a cue card. "Daniel, your dare is to grab a $200 gift card to Starbucks out of this jar." As he was talking, two interns walked up with a jar into one of their hands. It was the same interns from earlier.
"That should be easy."
"But…" As TST started talking, the girl undoes the lid and a swarm of bees could be heard from the inside with a few of them popping out. "In order to get to the coupon, you just have to find your way through these hungry bees."
Daniel swallowed his spit but felt man enough that he could do it. "I can do this."
"Go, Daniel!" Corey shouted and encouraged his fellow teammate.
Daniel sticks his hands into the jar and felt the stings of hundreds of bee's poke into his hand. It was a ton of pain, but he didn't let that get to him. Daniel tried to ignore the stings and tried his best to feel for the gift card. He finally finds the gift card after a few seconds and pulls it out. But his hand was swollen, puffy and full of bumps. "Got it." His eyes were tearing up. He was trying his best to not cry.
"Not only do you win a gift card for $200, but you also score your team another point."
Bumbling Bees: 3
Fighting Ferrets: 3
The randomizer lands on Lulu and it was a dare. "Lulu, your dare is to scream."
Lulu got nervous and hid in her shirt. "I-I-I-I-I-I don't know if I can do this…"
Brooke put her hand on her best friends' shoulder. "Lulu, I know you can do this!"
"But-but-but-but-but-Brooke, I'm scared of screaming."
"Lulu we all have to do this we don't want to do! That's what makes a person mature."
"But if that's the case…" Lulu started. "Then how come you haven't been honest," Lulu replied. That hit Brooke right in the heart, and she reflected on her past actions. But she needed to do what she had to, because of her game. "Look Lulu you have to do this! If you do this, then we might have a chance at winning."
"Your right," Lulu replied. Lulu gets up and she screams. Her scream was extremely loud, so loud that it ended up scaring some of the animals in the forest. Lulu felt bad for screaming so loud and covered her mouth. "I'm sorry."
"The Fighting Ferrets score another point."
Bumbling Bees: 3
Fighting Ferrets: 4
"You did great," Brooke said but it made Lulu blushed because she felt like she was being rude.
TST presses the button and it randomizes to Daniel yet again and this time it was the truth. "Daniel ever since your parents died in a car crash, the same car crash that made you blind and since then you've been being taken care of by a lesbian couple. Are you embarrassed to have two moms?"
Daniel was proud to answer this question. "No, I love my mom's. Shout out to you lot!" He turned to the camera and blows a kiss to them, which wowed some of the contestants and melted their hearts.
"Boring," TST said. "But you did tell the truth, so I guess your team gets a point."
Bumbling Bees: 4
Fighting Ferrets: 4
The randomizer lands on Brooke and it was truth yet again, but her teammates were a little wary of it. Brooke was feeling the pressure to finally tell the truth in this challenge, but she didn't want to give up on her strategy. "I hope it's about food."
"You can do this!" Lulu said. She and Brooke fist bump.
TST clears his throat. "This round will decide the winner if Brooke answers this question right, her team gets the point, but if she lies...then the Bumbling Bees will get the point." The heat was on and the attention was fully on Brooke. Brooke could feel the pressure increasing and she couldn't handle it anymore. "Ugh!" She screamed.
"Brooke...your question is...do you actually find Lewis attractive?"
Brooke sighed. She turned and saw that everyone was looking at her and she didn't like that. "Why are you all staring at me?" She asked.
"Because we want to make sure that we win this challenge, and the key to that is in your hands. Don't forget about that." Asuka responded.
Brooke sighed. "Fine...yes...I do think that Lewis is attractive." But that wasn't the truth and once again, Brooke was lying. She got her and her team got shocked again and where angry with Brooke, as Daniel and his team cheered for once again winning a challenge.
Bumbling Bees: 5
Fighting Ferrets: 4
"And the winners are the Bumbling Bees! For winning this challenge, the Bumbling Bees will get a free trip to Red Lobster tonight for a fancy dinner." TST turns and looks at the Ferrets. "As for the Ferrets...you guys will be sending someone home...again!"
"This is all your fault!" Asuka couldn't hold back her anger and was furious. She gets up and with her fist balled up, she was ready to attack Brooke, but Jewel and Grimmy end up holding her back. "You won't get away with this!"
Brooke had enough! She took off her collar and crushed it with her foot. She was tired of lying to everyone and didn't care about her game anymore. "I'm done! I'm finished with lying! I don't care if it defines me...I am a lesbian! I like girls! I like tacos! I'm not into guys...and I'm in a relationship with Valerie."
No one was shocked, instead, everyone just stared at her as crickets chirped. "It looks like no one is surprised…." Brooke was trying to get a good feel of the room, but it felt like no one cared about her being a lesbian.
"We all knew...it was obvious." Daniel shrugged.
Asuka glared at her. "So, you admit to being a liar...wow!"
"So, what if I lied?" Brooke asked. She was getting fed up with Asuka antagonizing her. "It was a part of my strategy. We all have to do what we have to do for our games."
"But that doesn't include lying about yourself." Asuka had enough and decided to push Brooke. Brooke decided to push Asuka back.
Jewel could sense the hostility between the two girls and decided to step in between the two of them. "Girls...no need to fight over me." She flirted. She winked her eye, but that didn't stop the two girls from intensely glaring at each other. The girls had enough of each other and decided to start attacking one another, with Jewel being left in the center of the fight.
The fighting between the two girls got very intense, creating a dust cloud and even having Jewel involved, as she repeatedly received kicks and punches. The contestants continued to look at the fight, as screams from Jewel could be heard from the inside.
The fighting was over, several hours later and Brooke was worried that she was going to be the next one going home, so she decided to talk to her alliance member Lewis about her safety. "Lewis, I'm going to go home next…" Brooke had a broken arm and a few lost teeth from the fight.
"What...no you're not!"
"But how do you know that Lewis?" Brooke asked. "I lied about my sexuality and got into a fight with Asuka." Brooke regretted everything she did on the island and felt embarrassed about herself, but luckily, she had her friend Lewis there to calm her down, which helped her from time to time.
"Don't worry about it," Lewis assured her. "I'm going to make sure that you're safe."
Brooke was worried but she knew she had Lewis as someone she could trust. "You promise?" She held out her pinky in order to make it more official.
"I promise!" Lewis said and the two-pinky promise.
Brooke: Good thing I have a trustworthy friend in Lewis who can keep me safe.
The Campfire Ceremony had already gone underway and Grimmy, Lewis, Lulu, and Jewel had already received Marshmallows, leaving the final decision between Brooke and Asuka. Jewel wasn't looking too hot as she was involved in the middle of the fight and had a few bruises and scratches to her name and so did Asuka.
"There are only two marshmallows on my plate…." TST said. What he said was true as on his plate he only had two marshmallows. Things were getting very intense as they waited for the results on who was going to be going home between Brooke and Asuka. "If you don't receive a marshmallow you will be forced to be attached to the Anchor of Shame and face your fears in the Drowning of Losers."
Asuka was tired of waiting. "Just hurry up already! I don't have all day."
TST clears his throat but gave a sharp look to the girl. "Don't interrupt me!" He shouted. "And the final marshmallow goes to…"
"..."
"..."
"..."
"..."
"..."
"..."
"..."
"..."
"..."
"..."
"..."
"..."
"Brooke!" TST tossed the marshmallow to her and Asuka ends up catching it and eating it.
Asuka wasn't happy about this. She got up out of her seat and was filled with so much rage at the rest of her team. "How in the hell could you vote me off?" She was in complete denial by this blindside and didn't think that it was the best idea from her so-called "team".
"Well…" Grimmy started. She wasn't sure how to put her words to good use. "I don't know how I can say this...but you were a little aggressive today."
"I WAS NOT AGGRESSIVE!"
Brooke was enjoying the hell out of this and chewing on her marshmallow as if it was the first thing she's ever eaten in her life. "You just proved her point."
Lewis wanted to play the middleman. "I didn't vote for you."
Grimmy put two and two together. "That doesn't make any sense…" She quietly said to herself.
"Thank you, Lewis,! I know that I can count on you!" Asuka stomped her foot on the ground. She wanted to hit Brooke so bad but was trying to calm herself down as she didn't want to make the scene worse than it already was. "I can't take this anymore, TST just attach the anchor to my leg and drop me into the water already."
Jewel winked at her. "Sad to see you go my queen."
"Shut up Jewel," Asuka replied.
TST started laughing and the other contestants got curious as to why he was laughing. "What are you laughing about?" Grimmy asked, as her and the other contestants looked at him.
"Because...this is a non-elimination round. I was just pulling a prank on you guys!"
Asuka cheered while the rest of her team got scared. "Yes, I'm not going anywhere!"
"Oh no!" Lulu said. Lulu and Brooke hugged each other as the rest of her team feared for their lives.
Asuka wasn't taking any prisoners any longer, but there was one person on her team that she was focusing on the most and that was Brooke, her mortal enemy. "Brooke…" Asuka wanted to hurt Brooke so bad, but she didn't want to make things worse. "Brooke...I'm coming for you! You made yourself an enemy and it isn't going to end well for you."
Brooke was scared. She swallowed her spit and hide behind Lulu. "Mommy save me.
Grimmy: Something doesn't make sense. (Grimmy put her thinking cap on and made the same jester as the thinking emoji.) Me and Asuka voted for Brooke...but if Lewis voted for Brooke then that would've made it a tie...but it wasn't a tie! Brooke, Lulu, Jewel, and Lewis voted for Asuka…. that means that Lewis was lying! (Grimmy started thinking harder.) Lewis has been playing all of us girls...he's a snake! But I can't tell anyone yet...or else it will ruin my game. How could I be so gullible?
The Fighting Ferrets were adjusting to life with a new team member and a recent elimination. Lewis being added to their teams, the Fighting Ferrets (minus Brooke) were getting tired of the losing streak they have been suffering with. As Grimmy was braiding Lulu's hair, Asuka held a team meeting with only half of them paying attention. "Listen up Ferret's as you can tell… we've been dealing with a sort of a losing streak lately and we need to do something about this!"
"What do you suggest?" Jewel asked.
"Fun fact, most Total Drama teams that lose, lose in a succession." Grimmy pointed out.
"No one asked for that face Grimmy." Asuka rolled her eyes. She had her back up against a rock, giving off a very "too cool for school" vibe.
Grimmy glared at her.
Grimmy was giving an interview to the producers. Behind her was backdrop Grimmy: I am a Total Drama superfan, so I know a lot when it comes to Total Drama facts. The couple that stayed in the longest relationship within three seasons, Owen and Izzy. The worst team ever, The Killer Bass. If you need to know anything Total Drama related just ask me.
"Come on guys, this is serious! We can't lose yet another challenge."
The next morning, the Fighting Ferrets were arguing amongst themselves except for Lulu who was sitting there silent and Jewel who had just about enough. Jewel had been sitting on that log, listening to everything that her team had been talking about. "Shut up!" They all stopped arguing and looked at Jewel. "What this team needs is yoga."
"Yoga?" Lulu asked. She and the rest of her team were confused about what she was talking about.
"Yes, Yoga. We need to clear our minds and get rid of all negative energy."
Her team all looked at each other. Jewel's idea was very out of the box.
Asuka: Yoga is the last thing I want to be caught doing. (A fly flies over towards Asuka, but thanks to her quick reflexes she catches the fly and crushes it.)
As the rest of the ferrets were doing yoga, Brooke was sleeping in the cave. Brooke wakes up. She got dressed and ready for the day, but she was not exactly ready to face her team. Brooke gets out of the cave and walks over towards her team. Brooke was a little confused but wanted to join in with her team. "Hey, guys!"
Brooke's entire team gives her the side-eye.
"I hope you all aren't still mad at me for lying about my sexuality and having a girlfriend." Brooke scratched the back of her head. She was sweating a bit, feeling nervous. However, her team ignored her.
Brooke: My team has not talked to me ever since the elimination ceremony. What did I do wrong?
Asuka: I do not accept liars on my team. Brooke has lied so much, I bet the bump on her tongue is huge.
Grimmy: Fun fact, after a character develops or if a secret is revealed about a contestant's lie, that usually means that contestant is going home soon. I wonder if it's Brooke's turn. *she pondered*
Lewis: Fuck, my plan failed. (Lewis balls up his fist and slams it on the palm of his right hand.) I must think of a new one to get Brooke out, but what exactly… (He rubbed his chin as he looked up.)
Brooke steadily looked at her team. Things were getting very awkward. "So... can I join in?" She asked. Her team didn't say anything yet again and ignored her. Brooke felt down and walked away. Lulu looked at Brooke and felt a little guilty for ignoring her. But Brooke gave Lewis a distinct look, noticing that there was something off about him.
Lulu: Look I get that Brooke lied, but I'm starting to think that we're being a little harsh to her.
Brooke: Hmm...I don't know...I've been thinking and I'm starting to think that Lewis was the reason behind my blindside. Something is off about him, he's always around… (Brooke put on her thinking cap and began putting the pieces together.)
Jun took a good look at himself in his mirror. He was horrified by the way he was looking and was trying his best to cover it up by putting on some of his best make-up. "It looks so wrong! Jun girl, you're not supposed to look like this, you're a queen."
Corey walked past him and shrugged. Jun felt the presence of someone standing next to him and immediately knew that it was Corey, based on the smell of his cologne. "What do you want Corey?"
"Nothing." He explained. "Just watching you waste your life away by acting shallow."
That ticked a nerve with Jun. "What's the point of living if you're not beautiful and looking fabulous?"
"Easy. Getting a job, starting a family, making a name for yourself…"
"Eww…" Jun responded. "That sounds horrible."
Corey gave up and sighed. "Look dude, if it wasn't for you looking pretty, who would you even be?" Corey gave him one last look and walked away. What Corey said, gave Jun sometime to think and reflect on his decisions and his way of life.
Max and Dylan were sitting next to each other close up to a tree. The two have been hanging out and have become close to one another. They're laughing and having a good old time. Max lets out a fart and it was smelly. She then burps.
"Ew!" Dylan pinches his nose together to block off the horrible smell. "What the hell?"
Max couldn't stop laughing and Dylan couldn't stop laughing either. "Shut up, pussy!" Max teased and playfully pushed the boy.
"I'm not a pussy." Dylan gets up and starts tickling Max. "Am I pussy now?"
"Yes, you still are!" Max chuckled. Dylan continues to tickle Max and they both start laughing, forming a deeper connection with one another. Dylan stops tickling her and the two stare in too each other's eyes. Things got silent.
Dylan bites the bottom of his lip and leans down. Max lifts her head and the two press their lips up against one another and kiss. The kissing continues and gets hot and heavy. Max takes off Dylan's shirt. The two break the kiss as Max rubs her hand down Dylan's chest, impressed with his physical form. She goes in for another kiss.
Max removes her shirt, showing only her bra and the kissing between them gets even more intense with heavy breathing sounds coming from both of them. The camera pans over to a tree as Max and Dylan wrestle around with things between the two of them starting to get more intimate.
"Attention campers, everyone please report to the campfire site. I repeat everyone please report to the campfire site."
The campers all gathered together at the campfire site, waiting for their next challenge or whatever it was that the host of the show TST wanted them for. The contestants began speculating on what the news might be amongst themselves. A little while later, TST appears out of nowhere from a cloud of smoke that dissolves.
"Hello, fellow contestants. Glad you all could make it...except for Brooke." TST sticks his tongue out at her and she growled at him. "I have some news I'd like to share with you."
"Is it the merge?" Daniel asked.
"No, even better… But… Kind of? As you know for years Total Drama has followed a strict and very easy-to-follow format that has been used for classic reality television shows for years. However, the executive producer for Total Drama: Qalito Island, Keith Holloway, as you all know best as Shelly's Father has been inspired by sports and the rise of eSports and wants to have the winner of this season be decided by holding a tournament." He started. TST then begins walking.
The contestants were a little confused about what TST was trying to say, but they were still following along with him. "That's right, you guys will not only no longer be competing in teams, but will be competing in a tournament in two weeks to decide the winner of Qalito Island in the first-ever Total Drama League tournament in Nocturne City here on Qalito Island in two weeks!"
"WHAT?!" The contestants all asked. This was surprising to the final eleven because they all had assumed that the season was going to be playing out like a normal Total Drama season, but this twist has changed their perspective because now they'd have to play differently.
Grimmy (giddy): Oh my god! A tournament! We have gone, full anime folks.
Lewis: Never thought I would see a Total Drama League. This should be interesting.
Lulu (shivering and hiding in her shirt): I did not expect there to be a tournament. How am I going to stand on a stage in front of thousands of people! It is scary.
Corey: Whatever...No matter what the format is, I am going to win!
Somewhere in the woods of the island, a mysterious person was walking. That mysterious person was Adrian. Adrian was wearing a glove, with a mini-tablet on it. Adrian types on the tablet and a blue comes out of the palm of his hand. He was looking for something.
Adrian points to the light on the ground. The glove was a tool that could be used to find hidden items. Adrian was trying to find a hidden item. He kept searching until he found a stone that looked like a Q with wings on it. Adrian smiled as he picked up the stone that glows red for a quick second.
Adrian touches the earpiece on his right ear and presses a button. "Target found."
"So, you found the stone for daddy?" Shelly asked, carrying a bottle of Jack Daniels.
"You shouldn't be walking around like that… it might blow your cover."
Shelly rolled her eyes. "It's not my fault they believe that I went to rehab. Though I do not know why they chose TST to do my job."
"Because I'm good at it." TST walked up to the two of them and stuck his tongue out at her.
Shelly rolled her eyes. "So mature."
Adrian was getting fed up. "Will you two shut up, already!" Adrian presses the button of his headpiece again and calls Shelly's father, Keith. Keith picks up the phone and Adrian clears his throat because he needed to be seen as taking the job seriously. "Sir, I found that Q Stone you've been looking for."
"Good…" Keith said. He had a dark and mysterious voice. He looked just like Shelly but with differences of course due to him being older and a male. But even though he was older, he looked younger. He had blonde hair and blue eyes. "Now bring it back to me."
"Yes sir. I'll bring it back as fast as I can."
Keith hands up the phone. He gets up and looks at his television screen which had a live feed of Keith in the forest. He was watching everything that was going on, on the island of Qalito. He smirked as a picture of a mysterious creature appeared on the screen. "Pretty soon, the world will learn the truth. Everything will go the way it's supposed to go because the end is near… Qalito…." He laughed as the eyes of the mysterious creature on the screen turned red.

Author's Note: Sorry this chapter took so long to finish editing. This chapter was short when I had finished it a week ago, but I added a lot more things to make the chapter a little juicer so sorry again for the long delay. This is the first non-elimination round of the story, what do you guys think of that being the case?
Allanarcher777: I have plans for it, it will be mentioned soon.
Fritz Electroscreech: Brooke finally got her payback, but it made her a new enemy.
That one ace popsicle stick: Eliminating Adrian early in favor of making Lewis a more "unique" villain is something that I think helped improve the quality of the story. So, I'm glad I made that change!
See you guys next time, forthe next chapter, which will be called Balloon is Only Skin Care Deep.
