Behind the Scenes
Paul Young: Elizabeth Life Stone
A girl, who had a heart shaped face, a thin long body, pale white skin with several freckles, a heart shaped face, a thin small mouth, small nose, almond shaped violet eyes and thin, long recently dyed dark green hair- which was currently worn in a high pony-tail, casually walked into the audition base, her name was: Aiden. She carried a few sheets of paper in her hand and quickly looked around the room.
"You haven't seen Chris have you?" she asked the nearest intern to her, who was named Ashley.
The girl glanced at her briefly, before shaking her head "Nope, sorry"
"Hey, who's that?" Aiden said as he noticed the picture on the screen.
Ashley shrugged her shoulders a "P something, you know him?"
Aiden looked at the screen thoughtfully "Not sure, seems familiar"
Ashley shrugged once more and then pressed 'play' on the screen "Well what do you think?"
Audition Video
*the camera opens up to a smiling 17 year old boy, who has a sunburst guitar in his hand.*
Paul: "Hey there Total Drama! I'm Paul Young, one of the male members of The Young Siblings, featuring myself and my siblings." *he picks up a photo of him and a 16 year old girl, who has a tan skin tone, brown eyes, black hair tied into a ponytail, which went down her right shoulder. She wore an pink empire waisted dress with a long sleeved white cardigan and light pink Victorian styled ankle boots. She has an angel wing necklace around her neck.*
Paul: "This beautiful girl right here is my girlfriend, Sienna Joseph, the daughter of two of your former contestants, DJ Joseph, and Katie Andrews. She is such a sweet girl, and she was the one who convinced me to sign up for Total Drama. You need a real musician. Not fake ones." *he chuckles*
Paul: "Anyway, I thank you for your time, and I hope to see you soon. Goodbye." *he plays a song on his guitar as suddenly a crash is heard. He gets angry.*
Paul: GISELLE! GEORGE! PAIGE! WHAT DID YOU DO?!" *he shouts, as he storms out of the room. The camera fades to static.*
"Giselle, George, Paige" Aiden mouthed the names slowly, as she thought "What was his name again"
"Eeer" Ashley looked to the screen "Paul, Paul Young"
"Paul Young" Aiden repeated "Young, young, young- oh, oooh" her eyes suddenly widened "I know them"
"Oh" Ashley, looked curious "How?"
"There a music band- I don't think they are that big yet- but they have a pretty rocken' garage type sound, they played at some local fundraiser-here" Aiden leaned forward and typed something on the computers screen.
"Oh- they have their own website" Ashley scrolled through it.
"And facebook page" Aiden licked the link.
"Oh, Michaels gonna wanna see this" Ashley said she kept looking at the screen.
"Here listen to this one" Aiden said as she pressed another one and the two sat down, putting headphones on.
….
Steve lay across the couches, an ice-pack over his head forehead "Why.." he groaned before wincing.
Avril and Jacob leaned against the couch laughing, they didn't even try to hide their amusement.
"Could you hyenas' stop your cackling"
Avril shook her head "No way"
Jacob chuckled "I told ya mate"
Avril shook her head again "I don't believe it"
"Believe it, I'm proof" Steve half groaned half gurgled.
Jason shrugged his shoulders "Believe it"
"And your sister is the same?" Avril asked.
'All of us, but mum" Jacob grinned "You should've seen the shocked looked of her new fiancé's face when she drunk him under the table, she had been hiding it from him, but then used it to win a bet"
"Oh, what does he have to do?" Avril inquired, eyebrow raised.
"It is how she got him to propose" Jacob replied quickly.
The two roared with laughter, Steve, groaned and turned him-self so he was facing into the couch.
Suddenly, the spinning door spun around and out walked Aiden; she angrily stalked through the room and into the gym. Happily for Steve, Jacob and Avril followed her out of curiosity.
She immediately went to the darts board, stood in-front of one that had Chris's head on it, plucked a few darts from the near-by box and pelted them at Chris's head.
"What did Chris do this time?" Avril asked her.
Aiden ground her teeth as she threw a few more.
"Expect a phone-call from the Tax Office" was all she said through gritted teeth.
Avril sighed "We always do, so what did he do?" she repeated.
Aiden, who had calmed down, told her latest encounter with Chris.
….
Earlier….
Aiden, had been looking for Chris, because a certain invoice had come up, he wanted it to be part of the business expense account, but it was for his own personal expense- she was sure, but she had to check.
When she finally located him, she shoved the invoice under his nose "Is this for your own personal use?"
"Why hello green hair" Chris greeted her.
She ignored him and waved the invoice "The rollercoaster- yours, or for Total Drama"
"Geez what sort of manners are they teaching youngsters these days"
She glared at him "Chris"
He just smiled at her.
She groaned "Hi, how are you- the rollercoaster"
"Patients, patients" he batted her hand away "you'll never get anywhere with those manners"
"Please, have a look at this invoice and tell me if it is for you, or for Total Drama?"
"Not with that tone" he turned around and crossed his arms.
Aiden took a deep breath and slowly counted to ten "You, you please, kindly, look at this invoice, and say whether it is for yourself, or Total Drama?" she asked again in an extreme, overly sweet voice.
Chris gave her a look "That is really going too far green hair" but he turned back around to face her and finally took the invoice.
Adrien simply sighed- that man and his antics.
"It's not mine" Chris finally declared.
"Oh, what for?"
"A challenge" Aiden took the invoice back and turned around.
"Oh and get our spectacular science team to build it when it comes in"
Aiden simply nodded "Where shall I tell them to put it?"
"In my backyard"
"CHRIIIIIS" she stopped walking, turned around and glared at him "that's for you"
"Huh, so it is"
"So it is- Chris, you can't do that"
"Relax green hair" he started to stroll toward her "the lawyers will fix it"
"The lawyers- Chris-"
"Now that you're here" he interrupted her "how about we go on a date?" he slung his arm over her shoulder.
"Gross" Aiden pushed Chris of her self- he was like ten years older than her- and well Chris- she shivered. He simply chuckled and let her walk away from him.
…
Back to present…
Aiden was now near the smoothie machine, making fruit smoothies for everyone as she finished her story. She handed one to Jacob, who thanked her.
Avril pinched the bridge of her nose "You know what he was doing"
"I know" Aiden sighed as she leaned against the counter "distracting me from the argument"
"Chris and sex would do that with anybody" Jacob shivered.
Both girls snorted, before the three dissolved into laughter.
…
Get this interview done and one more to go, Gwen thought, as she checked the next interviewee.
Paul Young, she thought, who are you? And better yet, will you show me?
She the teleported to a very familiar area- in-fact this house was around the corner to Michaels- she wondered if this interviewee knew that.
She gave an internal shrug, before heading the door. She smartly rapped at it.
Nothing.
She waited for a bit. Could they have forgotten, she was coming?
She decided to ring the doorbell this time.
Still Nothing.
She sighed as she knocked again.
She then looked at her watch- should she wait much longer? Give it a few, give him a chance. But if she waited too long, this interviewee would go over the next interview.
She suddenly heard her phone ring.
"Daugherty" she replied.
"Ah- Gwen, are you interviewing Paul Young"
"Well- hopefully soon" she replied Michaels question.
"Excellent, right, well, I have new information regarding the kid"
"New information?" Gwen queried.
"Ah yes- he and his siblings- quadruplets- I believe are in a garage band, they have a website and a facebook page, and if I am right, recognised- somewhat locally"
Well that was interesting "Thankyou Michael"
And they hung up.
Hmmn she thought- quadruplets in a garage band, if they gained in fame, Total Drama would be where they were first spotted. Except to get on the show, they'd have to be interviewed first.
She looked to her watch.
Garage band, she suddenly thought. She eyed the garage- maybe,, maybe…she walked towards it.
She knocked against it.
Nothing.
She sighed.
She eyed the door speculatively- maybe they just couldn't hear her. She normally didn't make it her habit to open doors uninvited, but-
She lifted the door and loud music engulfed her ear drums. And there were the Young Quadruplets.
They suddenly stopped playing and looked to her confused.
"Who are you?" a green eyed girl, who had a guitar slung across her body asked Gwen.
"Gwendolyn Daugherty, from Total Drama" Gwen replied.
All four of their mouths formed a comical "O" shape. The green eyed boy, who sat behind the drums had his eyes wide "Is that the time"
Gwen nodded her headed a small smile on her face- really their expressions were hilarious.
"I'm so, so sorry" He gave a cheeky grin, as did his siblings "We always seem to get carried away"
"Sorry, we couldn't hear you" the other girl with blue eyes, who had hair tied into a braid that hung over her right shoulder apologised, she the pointed to the walls "perfectly sound proofed" she grinned- as did the others.
"Well, sorry to push" Gwen looked at her watch "but we are now running short of time"
"No problems" Paul leaped from his seat and showed Gwen to the door that connected to the house, he suddenly paused and turned to his siblings and glared before pointing to a sunburst guitar that was in its stand in the corner "No-one touch my guitar- no-one"
His siblings grinned cheekily back, the blue eyed girl saluted, and the blue eyed boy looked to now rather sheepish looking green eyed girl, who spoke when Gwen first came in "Yeah Paige, no touching suntburst" he said jokingly.
Paige pouted "that was not my fault"
The boy chuckled, sure it was"
"Was not"
"Was"
As the pair continued to squabble like two-year olds, the blue eyed girl gave Paul a small smile "Don't worry bro, I'll keep these two in check" she then winked at him.
He laughed "Knew I can count on you Giselle"
He then continued through the house- there were music related posters everywhere.
"So why Total Drama?" Gwen eventually started the interview, with her signature question.
Paul grinned and laid fully back into his seat "Well, if I were honest- it would be great exposure, if I could bring my sunburst guitar along, or even the possible contacts"
"You like your music then?"
"Love it, live it, drink it, breathe it" was Pauls quick reply.
The interview continued, Paul seemed rather relaxed, easy going and rather blunt and honest with his answers.
When she pointed him out on it- he simply shrugged "It's the only way to speak- don't you think?"- Lying will hurt yourself, more than others" he continued.
"Wise words, from a wise woman" he suddenly had a very dreamy smile on his face.
"Who is this woman?" Gwen asked.
"Katie, the mother of my girlfriend" he suddenly sighed and lent sideways to rest onto his elbow which was on the arm rest.
"She is beautiful" he sighed once more.
"Katie?" Gwen questioned, really hoping he wasn't daydreaming about his girl-friends mother.
He shook his head and sighed dreamily "Serinna" he finally breathed out.
"Your girlfriend" Gwen prompted.
He nodded his head, his eyes far, far away- his face dazed.
Giselle entered the room "Hey, how is the interview go-oh" she noticed her brother, who now had a big lob-sided smile on his face.
She sighed "He's thinking about his girlfriend again- isn't he?" she directed the last bit to Gwen, who nodded. Not that Giselle needed Gwen's nod to know, she knew this look well.
She stalked over to her brother "He always gets this way, when he thinks of hers" she prodded him "always turns him into goo"
She prodded him "Serinna" he sighs.
Giselle slaps her forehead "Really?"
She shakes him "Not your girl bro"
He looks at his sister confused "Wha-"
"You were daydreaming again" Giselle explained.
"Ser-" Giselle slaps him "You got an interview to do- you can day-dream later"
He grins at her "thanks sis"
She sits down next to him "No problem, what are sisters for?"
He chuckles and then blushes at the sight of Gwen "You saw that didn't you?"
Gwen nods her head.
He then suddenly looks to Giselle "My guitar"
Giselle puts her hand on her brothers shoulder "Relax sweetie, your baby is fine"
He tries to glare's at her, but she stares right back "I'm not an idiot- I brought our guitars out of the basement"
Paul relaxes once more and they continue with the interview.
When the interview finishes she quickly glances at her next interviewee after a quick glance at her watch, and teleports away. She is never late.
