We start off with Dwayne Junior narrating.
The school system, the way it is set up, is useful for helping young kids achieve their goals. And, the students of Bronzestone high, look out for one another, and are willing to help others in danger. This is the dangerous sophomore year.
The tugs theme then plays
Junior's POV
Easter break had now begun, and me and Bertha were sitting in Douglas Richards' car, on the way to the Richards household. This would my first Easter away from my family. We eventually pulled up to the driveway, and Bertha was now giving me a tour of the house. We had gone through the entire first floor along with the basement, and we were now on the second floor.
Reader's POV
"That door right there is a towel closet, nothing in there but a bunch of towels and rags" said Bertha. "Let's get into something that's really interesting." She then led him into a bedroom, where there were three cribs, and three baby girls, playing on the ground. "These are my three younger sisters" said Bertha. "Their names are Sally, Lucy, and Christina." She then led him into another bedroom, with four cribs, and four boys, playing on the ground. "These are my four younger brothers" said Bertha. "Their names are Jerry, Kyle, James, and Chandler." "What was going through your mind, when you found out you were going to have seven younger siblings?" asked Junior. "I was shocked, I didn't know a woman could give birth to that many kids at once" said Bertha. "Now, I love every single one of them, but I won't deny it, things can get really crazy in a house with this many people."
She then showed him the bathroom and the master bedroom, and now she was going to show him her own bedroom, where the two of them would be sleeping. The two of them had shared a sleeping bag a couple of times, but this would be the first time, the two would be sleeping in the same bed. Upon stepping into the bedroom, Junior noticed what was decorated on the wall, right above the bed. There were numerous photographs, of Junior and Bertha, on several of their dates. "You know, there's one picture of us together, that isn't on this wall" said Bertha. She then opened up a drawer, a pulled out a painting of the two of them, having a picnic under a tree. She then pointed to a window, and showed that the tree in question, was in her backyard. "I painted that, the day we took the entrance exam, to get into the freshman year." "It was a really special moment for me, it was the first time I actually spoke directly to you, that was the day that we became friends." "You were one of the very few people i've met, that didn't point out my obviously flat chest." "Something that made me love you even more, was that despite my appearance, you still found me attractive." "Bertha, if you were absolutely covered with acne from head to toe, you'd still be the most beautiful person, i've ever met" said Junior. He then turned his full attention to the painting. "Do you wanna turn art into reality?"
Junior's POV
And turn it into a reality, we did. We went out into her backyard, and had lunch, underneath that tree. Bertha's mother (who's name is Riley by the way) Took a picture of us kissing, to put on the wall. Dinner that evening, was interesting, with so many people sitting at the table. Bertha's younger siblings didn't have that much to say. To be fair, they were all only one year old. It was soon time for bed, and me and Bertha soon had our pajamas on, and were in her bedroom.
Reader's POV
"I always hoped we'd be in this position, but I never thought that we'd actually be sharing a bed" said Bertha. "Well, life is full of surprises" said Junior. The two of them got under the covers, with Junior's teddy bear in between. Bertha then put her glasses on the nightstand. Bertha then wrapped her arm around Junior, and began cuddling. "I love you so much" they both said at once. They then closed their eyes, and began kissing each other. The two then full asleep, with their lips locked together.
As they were fast asleep, they woke up when they heard somebody say, "Whoa, I did not expect to see this." They turned their heads, and saw Zoey standing in the windowsill. Zoey looked the exact same way she did, when she turned into Commando Zoey during ROTI. Bertha then quickly put on her glasses. "What the hell are you doing?" asked Junior. "I could very well ask you the exact same question" said Zoey. "I had no idea, that the feelings you had for each other were so strong, to the point where you are okay with sleeping in the same bed." "I've never even thought of doing that with Mike, not even the thought of spending the night in the same room as him, and we've been dating for almost 4 years." "I am praying to God, that you guys changed in separate rooms, and that you weren't doing anything egregious." Bertha began going red in the face, with embarrassment. Zoey had no idea that she was sexually attracted to Junior, and that she would rather be spending the night with him, without her shirt. "Why are you acting like a complete pervert?" asked Junior. "Okay, i'm sorry, I wouldn't have barged in if it wasn't an emergency" said Zoey. "I didn't know that you two were comfortable with sharing a bed, and I was going to stop at Junior's window afterwards." "You could have just knocked on the door" said Bertha. "No way, there is no way that your families can know about what I need to show you" said Zoey. "Just get dressed and get in the car."
Junior's POV
Oh my God, I could not believe what was happening. We tried to tell Zoey that we should at least let Bertha's parents know that we were going somewhere, but Zoey told us, that nobody else could know about this. We got dressed, and got into her car. She then drove us outside the city limits, to a house in the woods.
Reader's POV
They knocked on the door, and the one who opened the door, was a slightly dark skinned man, with brown hair. "Okay Mike, I brought them, just like you asked me too" said Zoey. "I'm just going to warn you, that what you're going to see, is not pretty" said Mike. He led them inside the house, and they saw something horribly disgusting. Ezekiel was sitting on the couch, and his skin was no longer green, and his head was completely bald. He was not wearing a shirt, and most of his front was covered with stitches, bandages, and dried blood. Junior then realized, that the person who murdered his grandfather, was sitting right in front of him. He was about to launch himself towards him, with the intent of murdering him, but Mike and Zoey held him back. "Listen to me, the situation is way more difficult than you think eh" said Ezekiel. "Wait a minute, you're not feral anymore" said Bertha. "I never wanted to be feral eh, I was forced" said Ezekiel. "Going into Total drama world tour, I wasn't gonna say anything at all, unless somebody asked me to eh." "I learned from my previous elimination, that sometimes, it's better to keep your mouth shut." "But the day before, I can't remember who did it, but somebody chained me up against the wall, and stabbed me with a syringe full of heroin." The expression on Junior's face, then did a complete 180. "Oh Lord, this means that all of the things you did from episode 1 of TWDT onward, were against your own will" he said. "I can barely remember anything since I was drugged, but I saw the atrocities on tv once it wore off, and now when I look in the mirror, all I see is a monster eh" sobbed Ezekiel. "What I do remember quite clearly, was that I swam away from boney island, and ended up in the TDA film lot." "Then I remember Blaineley digging a tunnel, that led right into the Bronzestone high basement, that's hoo I ended up in Mount Sword eh." "Oh my God, the rumor about that tunnel, is actually true" said Bertha. "Wait a minute, I understand what's going on now" said Junior. "Blaineley drugged Ezekiel, to create chaos, and to try and make Total drama more entertaining to watch." "The reason why she has a teaching job in Mount Sword, is because she's trying to turn Ezekiel in to the military, as an attempt to get her fame back, and make herself look like a hero." "I found him in my backyard, noticed that he had lost all of his feral characteristics, and immediately realized that something was wrong" said Mike. "He'll never be able to explain his side of the story, the military is going to kill him before he can say anything" said Zoey. "There's nothing we can do." "I don't know about you guys, but there is something that I can do" said Junior. "What I have to do, is go into that tunnel, get into that film lot, and and look for any kind of evidence that can prove Ezekiel's innocence." "If there is any evidence, then that's where it is, that was one of the last places he was in before Total drama world tour." "Junior, you have officially lost it" said Bertha. "I get it, i'm on thin ice, because this isn't the first time i've ran away from home" said Junior. "But i've got no choice, I can't ask an authority figure for help, because the authorities are hell bent on killing Ezekiel without trial." "I'm not running away from my problems, i'm running away to solve somebody else's problem." "That's not why I think you lost it, you're crazy if you think you can do this on your own" said Bertha. "We are coming with you" said Bertha and Zoey at the same time.
Junior's POV
We were going through with the plan, and nothing was going to stop us. Me, Bertha, and Zoey, were going to sneak back into town, get inside the school basement, and find that tunnel. Once we found that tunnel, we were going all the way to the abandoned film lot. We didn't know how long this was going to take, so we each had enormous backpacks, full of food. We'd have to use our rations wisely. Mike was going to stay behind, and look after Ezekiel. The following morning after we made the plan, we would be going on a mission, that would be way too dangerous for a minor. But that is a story for another day.
Authors note: While it is possible for people to go feral in real life, I don't think living in a deathtrap disguised as a plane, would be the ultimate cause for it. I don't think heroin turning somebody into a monster is that big of a stretch, people have suffered way worse fates, because of excessive drug abuse.
The reason why Ezekiel can't be given a fair trail, is because everyone things that he's still feral, and will remain that way for the rest of his life. A trial wouldn't make sense, if the accused has been mutated so badly, to the point that they can no longer operate as a human being.
Thank you for reading and please have a great day.
