Welcome… to Total Kadachi Island. I've been wanting to write something with my TD OCs for a while, and, after careful consideration and many a revamp, I settled on twenty teens competing on an island until one remains. It's named Kadachi Island because originality in naming is not my strong suit. Anyways, enjoy!
The scene opened to a dock looking out over the ocean, with a tropical sun overlooking the clear blue waters. From the corners of the opening shot, some palm trees propped themselves into view, and a lounge chair was set up. Lying down on the chair was one Blake Byrne, a 5'10 white guy who was sunbathing peacefully. Blake turned his attention to the camera, propping his sunglasses on top of his head. He had grey eyes, and wore beige pants, along with green shoes, a red shirt and a bluish-grey jacket that was left unzipped. He had brown hair that was slicked back, and flashed a grin, his teeth sparkling.
"Hello there, Total Drama fans!" he announced, raising his arms up in emphasis, "And welcome to Total Drama Kadachi Island!"
The host stepped further across the docks, "I'm Blake Byrne, and I'll be hosting you throughout these next few weeks, where twenty teens will compete for one million dollars!"
He stepped a bit closer, "Kadachi Island is a natural paradise, home to at least thirty species never seen elsewhere," he narrated.
"But more importantly, it's now the site of an all-new season of Total Drama, hosted by yours truly. After the success of the Ridonculous Race, the network allowed almost anybody with a half-decent idea the opportunity to host their own season, and I happened to have this island in my expansive wallet, so I jumped at the chance."
Blake grinned, as the camera panned out, "Anyways, enough talk. Let's start Total! Drama! Kadachi Island!" the further shot revealed the island to be covered in a lush jungle… to the extent where a majority of the closer details aren't even visible.
As the intro song began to play, a camera popped out of a bush. A second camera was taped haphazardly onto a tree, and a third was stuck to a crab.
Dear mom and dad, I'm doing fine,
The camera zoomed across the Island, passing by Blake who was standing on the docks, sipping from a drink with a grin on his face.
You guys are on my mind,
As the camera sped up, it eventually landed on a beach, where Alexis and CJ were having a race. The cyclist won, much to the challenge seeker's dismay.
You asked me what I wanted to be,
Further along the shore, Olivia was sunbathing while Vera drew the drama queen, the artist blushing furiously. Mathias stood off to the side, glaring at Olivia.
And I think the answer is plain to see,
The camera went further inland, stopping past a river where Jesse was fishing, but the cowboy's peace didn't last long as Daniel came hurtling past in a canoe, the rich kid flashing a very cocky smile to the cowboy.
I wanna be famous!
Because of his gloating, Daniel did not see the branch poking over the river, and got clotheslined as his canoe went on without him. Dylan, who was nearby, laughed at the rich kid's misfortune.
I wanna live close to the sun,
The canoe left its owner behind, going further along the river and passing by Rayna, who was sitting on a stump and had her hands in a heart shape while looking further inland.
Go pack your bags, 'cause I've already won,
Rayna's attention was focused on Ember and Grace, who were talking across a table. The programmer was explaining something to the plain girl, who asked a question curiously. The programmer blurted something out, causing the plain girl's eyes to widen as Ember shrank in their seat.
Everything to prove, nothing in my way,
Further along from there, the camera went into the kitchen of the mess hall, where Kevin was cooking something in a large pot. The chef looked at it proudly, but his joy was short-lived as a flick of paper landed in the pot.
I'll get there one day,
The shot panned along to the desk, where Audrey and May were sat. Audrey quickly pushed a whole pile of paper balls onto the floor, while May was daydreaming with a vacant expression on her face.
'Cause I wanna be famous!
The scene shifted to the inner jungle, where Dustin was lounging on a tree branch, grinning. The guitarist looked to his side, where Bailey was watching Ally swing a makeshift sword against a small tree, confused but going along with it anyway.
Na na na na na na na na na, na na na na na,
It then zoomed into a nearby tree, where a small beetle was resting. Its rest was short-lived, as it was shortly eaten by a rather large chameleon.
I wanna be, I wanna be, I wanna be famous!
The camera went to a stage, where Celeste and Anthony were waiting around. Celeste was watching the weep pull anime poses on the stage, and rolled her eyes playfully.
[Whistled] I wanna be, I wanna be, I wanna be famous!
The camera finally faded to the campfire ceremony, where Colin was sat. The crab fanatic gave the camera a short peace sign, as it rose to reveal the other nineteen campers, who were whistling the theme song while sat around a campfire, along with Blake, Sunny, William, Connie and Nathan, who stood off to the side.
After the title sequence, the camera shifted to the insides of a boat, where the twenty campers were busy waiting for the show to start. The first of these was Mathias Knightley, a 5'6 white guy with shaggy ginger hair. His green eyes analysed every person he could see from behind his glasses, and he wore a black vest over a white undershirt. He also wore grey pants, and black and white shoes. He was sat on a crate, analysing the girl who was sat opposite to him.
Said person was Celeste Diamond, a 5'7 white girl who was reading a book about astronomy. She had black hair that covered one of her green eyes and went to her back, and wore a purple jacket decorated with stars. Underneath it, she wore a lilac shirt, and she also wore blue jeans and purple shoes. She raised an eyebrow, once she noticed Mathias's analysing.
"Could you stop staring?" she asked, closing her book, "It's making you look like a creep."
Mathias was taken aback, as he clearly hoped to stay unseen, "Oh," he flinched back, turning to face the astronomer, "I was simply observing the competition, that's all."
Celeste was slightly skeptical, "Did you have to linger on me that long?" she asked, running a finger through her hair while Mathias quickly ad-libbed an answer.
"You're much harder to get a good read of than some of these people," Mathias said, pointing towards somebody on the other side of the boat.
He was pointing to one Anthony Jacobs, an overweight 5'8 white guy whose brown eyes were busy perusing a pile of manga while he sat on the floor. He wore a red beanie, along with a green hoodie that hid a black t-shirt with an anime logo on it. He had short brown hair and also wore grey pants and purple shoes.
The weeb was so focused on his manga that he didn't notice CJ Nichols, who was running back and forth across the large cabin. The muscular black guy was 6'1 tall, and wore a red sports jersey with a number one in the center, along with blue jogging bottoms. He also wore red tennis shoes, and his grey eyes looked at Anthony's stash with disdain. His black hair was cut very short.
CJ passed by Anthony, but he stepped on a loose book and stopped in his tracks, before abruptly throwing it at Anthony's face.
"What?" the weeb questioned, as the book fell down his face and onto the floor.
CJ shook his head disapprovingly at the weeb, "Seriously dude? Manga? Of course," he scoffed, not letting Anthony get in a word, "You're not even worth my time. There better be some real competitors on here somewhere," he grumbled, pushing off before Anthony could reply. As he left, CJ kicked aside some of the books.
The weeb raised the manga he was currently reading up to his face, squinting his eyes at the challenge seeker, "Of course he wouldn't understand the beauty of manga," he rolled his eyes, before their attention was turned to a girl who was right next to him.
Grace Pines waved at Anthony, and if one thing stood out about her… it was that nothing stood out about her. She was about 5'8 tall, had long, straight brown hair, brown eyes, and wore a brown blouse, a white shirt, a brown skirt, knee-high white socks and brown shoes. She gave Anthony a warm smile, and the weeb returned it.
"He looked… rude," she commented, tapping her chin with a finger. The plain girl then turned to Anthony, and started to put his manga into a neat pile.
"There! All done!" she said, after a quick pile-up, "Now it shouldn't be messed up that easily!" He patted the top of the pile in a minor triumph.
"Thank you!" Anthony bowed dramatically, as the focus shifted to another group of contestants.
On another side of the cabin, Ember Ashe had their laptop out. They were a very skinny and pale 4'11 adrogynous teen, wearing a large green hoodie and grey pants, along with black shoes. They had wispy auburn hair, and amber eyes that didn't leave the screen in front of them.
Ember didn't notice Audrey Wilde, a 5'6 tan-skinned girl covered in bruises, who snuck up behind them. Audrey wore a white helmet which had a few stickers on it, a grey shirt that was covered in mud and various other scrapes, white pants that were in a similar condition, and white shoes to stick with her colour scheme. She had very long and very unkempt black hair, and had a black skateboard in her hand. Her green eyes looked to Ember's laptop with an expression of raw confusion.
"What's going on there?" Audrey asked curiously, startling Ember, who quickly shut their laptop lid down in surprise.
"Nothing much, really," Ember smiled bashfully, rubbing the back of their head, "I'm just, um, doing some programming for a personal project, hehe."
Audrey narrowed her eyes, "I don't buy it, it's obvious you're..." Audrey thought for a moment, putting her tongue out in thought, "Starting an AI takeover, yeah!" she guessed out of nowhere, catching Ember off-guard.
Ember's face grew red, and they hid into their hoodie, "I'm not doing that! I mean, I am creating an AI, yeah. But why would I create something that would destroy me, it doesn't make sense," they reasoned frantically, though Audrey didn't mind - until she was hit in the helmet by a puzzle cube that was thrown from elsewhere.
Ember sighed in disappointment, and Audrey was shocked by the rattling noise, causing Dylan Underwood to chuckle lowly to himself. The 4'10 white gremlin had messy neck-length black hair, and wore a white sweatshirt, grey pants, grey shoes, had black eyes, and had a very distinct scarf with a space-themed print. He was currently sat on the floor, and snickered evilly to himself.
"Gotcha," he muttered under his breath, fidgeting with his scarf using the other hand while he snickered evilly.
Behind Dylan was Dustin Gavin, a 6'5 white guy, and the tallest contestant on the boat. He wore a blue hooded jacket over a black shirt, grey pants and black boots, and had a black pompadour, along with a gold bracelet. His blue eyes looked at Dylan while he grinned at the mischief, and he offered the troublemaker a high five.
"That was awesome," Dustin grinned, watching Audrey pick up the puzzle cube confused, and the guitarist ran one of his hands through his hair.
"Please," Dylan smirked, taking the high-five, though he lingered on Dustin's hand for a short while, "That's nothing. Watch this."
"Oh?" Dustin questioned, before smirking, "This oughta be good."
Dylan pointed to some contestants further along the boat, notably two girls, and threw a small little ball near them. It quickly burst into a loud noise, startling one awake and getting the other's attention. Dustin grinned and left, though Dylan's smirk got slightly darker as he did.
The troublemaker twirled Dustin's bracelet in his right hand, "Too easy."
Further along from Dylan, May Summers was rubbing her eyes after Dylan's little 'prank'. The daydreamer was 4'9, making her the shortest contestant on the boat. She had white skin, messy blonde hair that covered her blue eyes, and wore a blue sweater, grey sweatpants and blue shoes. She overall gave off an expression of 'I just woke up'.
Next to May was Rayna Skye, a pale 5'7 girl who was very skinny. She wore a red jacket and a blue shirt, both with pink hearts on them, a red skirt and blue shoes. She had a short black ponytail, with red and blue streaks dyed in, and brown eyes. She was writing something down in her notepad, and turned to face a daydreamer next to her.
"Oh yeah, I can already see the fireworks with these two," Rayna grinned perversely, watching Dustin and Dylan's interaction, "Partners in crime, that's a great dynamic."
May looked at Rayna, raising an eyebrow. She yawned, "I… don't see that ending well," she commented, rubbing the back of her head uneasily as she looked back to the two guys.
"You're just not looking at it right," Rayna pointed up a finger, as she explained to May, "This is just the start. And all I need to do is add some fuel to the fire, and boom!"
May nodded awkwardly, as Rayna gained a small smirk, "And anyways, now that I'm thinking about it, I could definitely ship you with somebody… I'll find someone for you!" the shipper stuck her tongue out, tapping her head in thought.
May didn't respond, instead just daydreaming and staring into nothing, so Rayna found someone, "How about… uh… her!" she called out, pointing to somebody, before deciding that her and May weren't a match.
That somebody was Ally Starr, a 5'3 white girl wearing a brown cloak, a green shirt, brown pants and brown boots. She had medium length brown hair, and blue eyes that were focused on a wooden staff she was holding. She had a necklace with a red jewel around her neck, which caught the attention of a rather pretentious asshole.
That person was Daniel Wellington, and his facial expression radiated one emotion in full force. Smugness. He had blonde hair with a single black streak in it, blue eyes that looked down at Ally's necklace, and wore a well-kept blue shirt, designer white jeans, designer shoes, and a silky white scarf around his neck. He was around 5'9 tall.
"Pfft," he bragged, "Just a single jewel? Pathetic. I'll have you know I happen to have twelve rubies. Not to mention my countless collection of many other types, at least six of which haven't been discovered by anyone other than myself."
Ally stared at him, and tapped her staff up to his nose, "Well, I, the great mage Ally, only need this single ruby to power my spells" she declared, catching Daniel off-guard.
"How dare you!" Daniel said, pushing Ally's staff away from his face, "Do you know how long it took me to prepare for this show?" Daniel complained, clearly not letting the role-player get a word in, "I spent hours making sure I looked PERFECT, and what do I get? Some wannabe witch-"
"I'm a mage," Ally corrected, pouting at Daniel getting it wrong, "Not a witch. There's a clear difference."
"Pfft. I don't care," Daniel haughtily turned away from the 'mage', looking back at her with a smug breath, "I don't need anyone to win, because I am the best."
As Daniel assured himself of his victory, Kevin O'Reilly looked at him with a raised eyebrow. The chef wore a white shirt, with a red handkerchief around his neck, and black pants and shoes. He was 5'10, and had short ginger hair in a combover, and blue eyes. Looking down from Daniel, he looked through his bags to check he had all of his cooking equipment, among other things.
Next to Kevin was Colin Turner, a scrawny 5'2 boy with spiky sandy brown hair and freckles. He wore a yellow shirt with a red crab in the center of it, green pants and white shoes. He also wore a satchel over his shoulder, with a single terrarium attached landing near his hips. He had green eyes behind a pair of glasses, and he turned to face Kevin with a smile on his face.
"Hi," Colin said, introducing himself to Kevin, "I'm Colin!"
"Name's Kevin," the chef said, his Irish accent poking through, "I'm a chef. A pretty good one, if I say so myself."
"That's pretty cool," Colin said, "I just like crabs. I think they're pretty neat. I even brought one of my own, if you take a little look…"
Colin gently moved his terrarium up to Kevin, and pointed towards a small hermit crab that was scuttling in the sand and water within the walls, "This is Herman, he's a close friend of mine."
"Ah," Kevin said, "He's… actually pretty cute."
"Actually?" Colin squinted, turning around to stare accusingly at the chef, "Crabs are always cute. It's a fact."
"If you say so," Kevin said, a little bit confused and unnerved, though his attention was soon attracted by the sounds of a fight.
The two fighters were a girl, and the final boy of the cast. The girl was Alexis Bowman, a 6'4 athletic teen wearing a white sports jersey with red stripes, a and blue gym shorts. She also wore red shoes, and had short brown hair in a simple ponytail. She was glaring angrily a 5'11 guy standing opposite to her, and looked done with him.
This guy was Jesse Marshall, and if one were to describe him in one word, it would be… cowboy. From the cowboy hat resting on top of his head to his large cowboy boots, he looked like the spitting image of one. He had fairly long black hair, a farmer's tan, and blue eyes. He was looking at the cyclist next to him with a relaxed look in his eyes, aggravating Alexis further.
"Don't look at me like that," she growled, throwing a punch at the cowboy's face. He caught it with his palm, and Alexis's glare intensified.
"Look, pardner. There's a chance we'll be on the same team, and I think it'd be for the best if we get along, y'hear," Jesse reasoned, though Alexis didn't accept it.
"So what?" Alexis reiterated, "You're just staring at me uncomfortably, and I don't like it!"
Before Alexis could throw another punch, a 5'5 adrogynous teen put themselves between the two, trying to act as a mediator. They were Bailey Harper, and they had neck-level messy black hair, and wore an off-shoulder grey sweater, very short blue shorts, pink and white striped thigh-high socks and grey shoes. They had blue eyes that tried to plead with Alexis to stop.
"It's just day one, guys. Don't nya think that you're taking this too far?" the V-Tuber asked, throwing in a cat pun, "And anyways, why did this start?"
"Well," Alexis said, calming down a little bit but still glaring daggers at Jesse, "This smug a-hole glared at me funny, and I wanted to give him a piece of my mind."
Bailey and Jesse shared a look of 'Are you serious?', before Jesse spoke up, "Is that it? Pardner, if that's all, then you're nothing short of unreasonable."
"Unreasonable?" Alexis shouted, "You're the one who looked at me funny, you should apologize, not me!"
Bailey realised that they had to be the reasonable one here, and stepped between them, "Why don't we just calm down, and settle this nicely…"
Alexis's glare was enough to send the V-Tuber cowering away, and the cyclist and cowboy resumed their argument. Fortunately, the final two contestants were too far away to really get a glimpse of the fight.
The first of these two was Vera Wyatt, a 5'1 girl with long blue hair that ran down to both her back and over her shoulders. She wore a purple sweater, blue jeans and purple shoes, along with a yellow beret, and had blue eyes that eagerly ran over her compatriot's body, before going to a sketchpad that she had in front of her.
Said compatriot was a 5'10 black girl who was definitely one of the more attractive people on the boat. She wore a pink sleeveless shirt, jeans and pink shoes, and her curly brown hair flowed to her back. Olivia Marsh winked, and Vera blushed, before furiously drawing in her sketchpad.
Vera's attention was focused on what she was drawing, which was obviously Olivia. She cast the drama queen a thumbs up, and she smirked.
"Make sure to get my good sides," Olivia said, posing for Vera's painting, "Of course, I only have good sides, but still."
"G-got it!" Vera stammered, the artist meticulously sketching down every curve of her model, grinning as she accentuated part of it.
Olivia saw this as an opportunity, and walked up to Vera, giving the artist a flirty wink, "Good to see I'm looking great, as usual" she praised, before sitting next to Vera, "Say… why don't we work together."
"O-oh?" the artist stuttered out, "A-an alliance?"
"Exactly. I'm the smartest, strongest and, most importantly, prettiest player on this boat," Olivia said, putting a hand to her chest as she spoke of herself, "And I'm giving you the chance to work with me. So…"
"I-I'll do it!" Vera caved in, causing Olivia to smirk at a successful alliance.
It wasn't long before the boat arrived at the island, and Blake stood on the dock. On the land near the dock's start was a vehicle similar to the one used to tour the campers around Action's film lot, albeit tricked out to look a lot more tropical.
A quick bridge let the new cast access the tropical island, and they quickly filled out. Blake greeted them with a wide smile on his face, "Welcome, contestants, to Kadachi Island! I'm your host, Blake!"
"Just get started already!" Alexis called out from the front of the pack, the cyclist angrily crossing her arms in a huff, "I'm tired of waiting!"
"Yeesh, yeesh, let me actually start," Blake said, the host raising his arms up in mock surrender, "You'll get you're chance to fight each other eventually, don't you worry."
Alexis muttered something under her breath, though Blake decided to ignore it in favour of continuing his announcements.
"Anyways, everybody get on the vehicle so I can show you around," Blake said, walking along the dock and sitting in the front of the vehicle next to a non-descript intern driving it. The cast followed, with Audrey grabbing May to make sure she got on the vehicle okay.
The vehicle started, and moved along some decently kept paths. Blake turned back to the campers, and began to explain, "This… is the island you'll be staying at. While here, you'll be participating in the usual Total Drama shenanigans - for those of you who for some reason didn't watch the show before-hand; you'll be split into two teams, and you'll compete in challenges until only one remains."
"If I may, where will we be sleeping?" Kevin asked, raising his hand, "As I don't think this island is safe to camp on."
To emphasise his point, Kevin pointed to a particularly large crocodile that was relaxing on the other end of a river that the campers passed by. Blake blinked, before grabbing a walkie-talkie from his waist and calling the person on the other end.
"Yeah, uh, Sunny, tell William to make sure we have crocodile deterrent," he called, before shutting it down, "We've got two trailers set up at our camp. We made sure that the main camp is completely safe, so don't worry about a thing."
"T-thank goodness…" Vera sighed in relief, clutching her sketchpad to her chest.
"And, before anyone else asks, at the campfire ceremonies this season you will be receiving," Blake reached into his pockets, before pulling out something, "100% authentic statues of the Kadachi Island crocodile, the largest animal on here not found elsewhere."
Some of the teens shared nervous glances, but Blake was undeterred, "And the loser will be sent home by… well, you'll see," Blake chuckled darkly, unnerving everyone except for Daniel, Alexis and Dylan to various degrees.
Colin turned to Grace from his seat, "I don't feel safe."
"It can't be that bad," the plain girl shrugged, to which Colin responded with an awkward silence.
Blake continued the tour, quickly reaching the designated camp, which was a well-kept clearing with two trailers and a mess hall, along with paths going out to most of the island, "Anyways, this is where you'll be staying. You've got an hour to put your stuff away in the trailers. Boys in the left one, girls in the right one. Ember, Bailey… you two can fight it out for who goes where."
Ember and Bailey exchanged eye contact from their seats, and began to decide who goes where.
"Your pick," Ember shrugged, not really caring that much.
"Alright, I'll go with… the girls," Bailey decided, seeing as the girls were, for the most part, much nicer than the guys. Ember wasn't too bothered… or if they were, they didn't show it.
"Now that settles it… your timer starts now!" Blake announced, and the two groups of ten split to their separate cabins.
Confessional - Blake
Blake sat in the confessional room, which was a well-kept plastic outhouse. Fortunately for everyone, the actual outhouse parts had been removed, and there was just a chair instead, "One last thing. You can rant, vent, or just say your general opinion on something from in the security of this room. Nobody else in the cast will know about this, so say what you like!" Blake tapped his head, with a knowing smirk on his face that this isn't fully private.
Confessional - Colin
"Well, this is much better than what we would've gotten if Chris was the host," Colin mentioned, looking around the outhouse, "But you know what would make it better?"
Colin reached into his pockets and grabbed a sticker of a crab, and stuck it to the back wall.
"There! Much better!"
Confessional - Rayna
Rayna was sat in the confessional, and noticed Colin's sticker of a crab, "Wait, we can add our own stuff?" Rayna reached into her jacket's pocket and took out some drawings that had to be censored, along with a roll of tape. She quickly stuck it to the camera side of the outhouse, and smirked at her work.
"Right now, I'm just scoping for ships, honestly. There's like… five attractive people for me to ship with myself, so there's a LOT of options for the rest of them."
Confessional - Ember
Ember was staring wide-eyed at the art Rayna produced, and hid their face behind their hands. Sighing, they reluctantly reached out to grab them, and held them in one hand with a look of disgust. They quickly ripped them apart, and flushed the remains down the toilet.
"It had to be done," they said, shaking their head in disbelief, "It had to be done."
On the girl's trailer, the nine of them - and Bailey - had arrived, and were looking at the inside of the trailer. Three bunk beds were on the side not facing the door, and two were opposite to them. There was also a small desk with a mirror and some drawers attached to one of the walls. They quickly set to picking bunkmates rationally… other than May, who just claimed the closest bottom bunk to herself immediately.
Alexis took a top bunk far away from the door, "I'm taking this one, no questions, got it?!" she shouted, getting mostly nods from the others.
Celeste decided to step up as makeshift leader, "Okay, let's be reasonable here. Does anyone already have somebody they want to bunk with?"
Rayna pointed to Olivia with a perverted grin on her face, though the drama queen quickly turned to Vera instead.
"I'll go with Vera here," Olivia notioned, putting an arm around the artist, "Your choice for bunk."
"U-um I'll j-just take the top bunk," Vera stuttered out, climbing the ladder to put her bags on her bunk. Olivia took the one below her, giving her alliance-mate a small smirk.
Rayna snapped her fingers in defeat, though her mood quickly perked up when she saw the two go together so willingly.
Grace turned to Rayna, the plain girl giving the shipper a small polite wave, "Hey, Rayna, was it? Would you like the top bunk?"
Rayna shrugged flippantly, "Sure, why not," she quickly set herself up at the top of a bunk, making sure she was opposite to Olivia and Vera's one.
Celeste did a quick countdown, "1… 2… 4… 6," she counted, before facing Ally, Bailey and Audrey.
"Alright, anybody want to go together, or go with May or Alexis?" she said, raising a finger to emphasise her point, "Because I'll go with Alexis if nobody else wants to, since it doesn't look like most of us like her."
"I can hear you!" Alexis called out from the end of the cabin.
Ally 'bravely' stepped up to the challenge, "I will gladly sacrifice myself for the party!" the mage declared, brandishing her staff and accidentally poking Audrey in the helmet, not bothering her in the slightest.
"I can still hear you, this is a small trailer!" Alexis shouted again, the cyclist fed up with the constant badmouthing.
"Ah," Celeste sighed, "Sorry.
Alexis scoffed and rolled her eyes as Ally went to the bunk below her, the mage planting her bag firmly on the bunk to claim it as her domain.
Audrey wrapped an arm around Bailey, "Well, me and Bailey'll go together!" she declared, taking the top bunk next to Vera's.
"Sure thing!" Bailey smiled, moving to the bunk below Audrey and giving the skateboarder a high-five.
"Well, I'll go with May, then," Celeste smiled, putting her bags on the top bunk above the sleeping girl, who didn't respond at all.
"I regret not taking the opportunity to go with the girls," Ember sighed, staring wide-eyed at the sight before them. Daniel and Dustin were already arguing about how to go about deciding bunkmates, with most of the others standing off awkwardly. Dylan, however, was sat on a top bunk already, basking in the chaos and egging them on. This trailer was exactly the same as the girls' one aesthetically.
"I should decide who bunks with who!" Daniel declared, "For I have the knowledge needed to decide ideal bunkmates!"
Dustin growled, poking the rich brat's chest angrily, "Of course you do. We should just bunk with who we want, not who some poser wants to bunk with!"
Anthony stood off to the side, and sighed quietly to Mathias and Kevin, "I agree with Dustin, but I don't want to deal with Daniel. I already hate him so much."
Kevin nodded, while Mathias thought of an idea, "Why don't we just… take bunks while those two fight it out?" he suggest, raising his glasses up to his eyes, "I doubt they'll be finished any time soon. Enough time for the rest of us to pair up, no?"
Anthony grinned, and Kevin whispered it to Colin, who passed it on to the rest of them. "You're a genius!" the weeb praised, "Why don't we take this bunk together."
"Sure," Mathias grinned, pleased with the praise, "I'll take top bunk… no offence."
"None taken," Anthony said, planting his bag down onto the bottom bunk.
Kevin tapped Colin on the shoulder, and the crab fanatic understood the idea immediately.
"I'm going bottom, near the desk," he declared, planting Herman's terrarium on the trailer's desk, "Herman doesn't like being high up, and I want to make sure I'm close to him."
"If you say so," Kevin shrugged, going up to the top bunk to watch the fight, as there wasn't much else to do. Daniel and Dustin were still going at it hard, and both were oblivious to the plan hatched by the others.
Ember turned to Jesse, offering the top bunk with a simple gesture, "Just because, let's be honest, I don't want to bunk with Dylan or CJ. Not that you're bad, of course, just they're way worse…"
Ember stared at the floor awkwardly, realising that they went on another tangent, while Jesse accepted anyway.
"Don't worry about it," the cowboy reassured, planting his bag on the top bunk, "You're not wrong, they're not trustworthy types. Nobody I'd want rustlin' near my stuff, anyways."
Dylan, upon seeing the plan, called out to Daniel and Dustin, "Hey assholes, we're picking bunks without you!" he cupped his hands around his mouth, smirking as their attention was bought to him.
Daniel was outraged, "How dare you! My picks would've been way better than this, I'll have you know!"
Dustin, comparably, smirked at this knowledge, "See! I knew they'd see reason instead of listening to so some stuck up rich brat!"
Dustin went to the bunk below Dylan, which the troublemaker didn't mind too much. Which left Daniel with CJ, causing the rich guy to sigh, annoyed that his plan didn't happen.
"Don't even think about bossing me around," the athlete scowled, throwing his bags onto the top bunk.
"You'll all regret this!" Daniel shouted furiously as he threw his bag at the bottom bunk.
Confessional - Dylan
"Nyahaha!" Dylan laughed, the troublemaker grinning like the madman he is, "If these are the people stuck with me, this'll be great!"
Dylan then took one look at Colin's crab sticker, took a sharpie out from his pocket and drew a grill underneath it, chuckling to himself at his act of mischief, however small it was.
Confessional - Alexis
Alexis crossed her arms, the cyclist scowling at the camera, "Okay, maybe I was a bit too harsh to Bailey on the boat, but still! I already hate that cowboy-hat wearing loser, but that doesn't mean I hate them… as much."
She rolled her eyes, "If that's how they wanna play it, so be it," she punched one fist down on her open palm, with a threatening look in her eyes.
After their one-hour break, the twenty teens met up with Blake in the main campground, the host being trailed by two interns, and together they were… an interesting duo, to say the least.
The first of these was Sunny Daye, a very feminine 5'5 boy. He had blonde hair with yellow streaks that went down to his eyes, and wore a bright yellow unisex t-shirt. He also wore a blue skirt, just to add to his femboy aesthetic, and had yellow shoes on. He had bright blue eyes, and gave the cast an enthusiastic wave, which was returned by a few of them.
The other guy managed to make Sunny look normal. William Devion was also blonde, albeit much more curly than his compatriots, and he had blue eyes, but the similarities ended there for the two interns. He had a lanky-ish physique, and stood slightly taller than his compatriot at 5'7. What truly stood out about this guy was the outlandish outfit he wore. From the top, he wore a purple hat adorned with an orange ribbon. Below that was a purple and black striped shirt with puffy sleeves that was opened in the center, revealing a black and gold shirt underneath it. Various gems were pinned on the edge of the shirt - three on each side - before the cut-off, thought they were probably fake. He also had a blue cape, and puffy shorts with a similar colour scheme to his shirt, and white tights. Finally, he wore purple shoes, finishing his look. This… 'actor' just looked upon the cast with a pretentious smirk, causing many an eye roll.
"These," Blake introduced, pointing to the femboy and Shakespeare wannabe behind him, "Are Sunny and William. They're the head interns, and you'll be seeing them a LOT around here. They'll be helping me with certain challenges where one host probably isn't enough, and some of the challenges were actually their ideas."
"Hi!" Sunny introduced himself, throwing up a peace sign with a smile on his face, "Name's Sunny Daye. I know, it's a pun, laugh all you want. I think it's quite funny."
There were a few chuckles - notably from Bailey, Colin and Audrey - and a few groans - notably from Alexis, Kevin, and Mathias - at the femboy's full name.
Confessional - May
The daydreamer was staring into space, before a hand tapped her shoulder to wake her up. She gave the hand's owner a slightly annoyed look, and then lazily turned to the camera.
"I… don't like puns… with my name in them," she yawned, clearly not too focused on giving a confessional, "Because… my name's one syllable long… and in a lot… of words. They get… grating fast."
She then fell into another daydream - or just fell asleep, hard to tell with her - while in the confessional, enjoying the peace and quiet, which was probably her goal all along.
"Oh! And I'm a boy, just wanted to tell you all," Sunny noted.
"These plebians wouldn't know true drama if it struck them in the face," William smirked, the actor brandishing a gold staff in his hand. Olivia was annoyed at that statement, though stayed quiet.
"Don't worry about him, it's just an act," Sunny affirmed, clapping his hands together.
"Oh, but it is not, I assure you," William denied, shaking his head and looking down upon the cast, despite being shorter than a good chunk of them.
"Enough of that," Blake rolled his eyes at the interns' antics, "What we're really here for is to decide the teams you guys will be in. There's gonna be two of 'em - The Crushing Crabs, and the Terrifying Turtles. They were my picks for names, as these two seriously couldn't agree on anything that made sense."
"Shut-eth the fuck up-eth, my ideas were great," William glared, clutching his staff dramatically.
"William, almost all of your ideas were self-praise, don't even try to say they were any good," Blake pointed out bluntly, and William dramatically raised an arm in the air, forcing all attention towards himself as he took a deep breath in.
"Out-" William began to recite something, however Blake put a finger to his lips to shut him up.
"Your contract specifically stated 'no recitals'. Break it, and you're out of here," the host scolded, causing the actor to scowl, annoyed.
"Fine-eth!" he pouted, sneering at the host, "But I will still do the ending!"
The ending was just William dramatically falling onto his back, landing with both arms behind his back, plus one leg bent backwards.
Most of the cast stared blankly at this display, while Sunny tried to help him back up, "Enough about him, let's get onto the team choosing, shall we?" Blake said, giving out a short grin, ignoring William's dramatic failure.
A short transition brought the cast, host, and interns to the mess hall, which was simply decorated - wooden floors, wooden tables and benches, and a counter - behind which interns were cooking meals. Kevin peeked into the kitchen, and immediately tried to restrain himself from going in and examining further.
"Before we start, welcome to the mess hall. This is where you'll be eating every morning and evening. Lunch as well, if the challenge of the day lets that happen," Blake waved an arm out, showing off the building, "But, what we're here for is the team-choosing activity. Which is…"
Blake raised both arms out, and William and Sunny threw confetti up into the air, "A simple game of 'Find-the-interns'! William and Sunny will have two minutes to find somewhere around the camp, to hide, and you guys will try and find them. The ones who find them get to be team captains and pick their teams, so I'd be trying hard to find them if I were you."
The two interns quickly made their way out of the mess hall, and began looking for places to hide. Inside the mess hall, some contestants were having a discussion.
"How… does William expect to hide, exactly?" Anthony questioned, the weeb rubbing his chin as he thought.
"I don't know," Audrey shrugged, "He looks like he'd stand out massively, like, bam! There he is! No way we're gonna miss him!"
Olivia butted in, pushing Anthony aside. Or tryed to, at least, because she just sat opposite to the weeb, "Please. I'll be the one to find him, and I'll drag him in by his cape if I have to."
Grace, who was also sat at that table, tapped a finger to her cheek, "I think that's rough, but it gets the point across."
Blake blew a whistle to announce that the search was to begin, and most of the contestants piled out of the room. Key word, most.
"Are… you guys gonna go search?" Blake asked, raising an eyebrow at the stragglers.
"I, uh, can't pick things easily, hehe," Ember admitted, rubbing the back of their neck awkwardly.
"I-I'm s-sure Olivia w-will pick m-me w-when she wins," Vera stuttered, focusing on her sketchpad.
May was asleep on the table, not bothered by the hunt at all.
Kevin's voice called out from the kitchen, "No way! I'm making sure this kitchen is actually good, this might be my only chance!" he shouted, poking his head out to show that he was still there.
"Suit yourselves, I guess. More chances for the rest of them, then," Blake shrugged, not too bothered by the four's reasons.
While some of the contestants had went on their own, others had split off into groups. Anthony, Ally, Grace and Colin made a group of four, with the role-player leading the group.
"Let us find our runaway bard!" she declared, putting her staff in between the four. The other three all put their hands onto it, and they all raised them up as well.
"And Sunny," Anthony noted, raising a finger, "Since he'll be hiding as well."
"Of course," Ally nodded sagely, going at a walking pace, "We'll find him as well."
The quartet shortly made it to a bush, and found a very vibrant purple thing standing out.
"Is… that William?" Grace asked, the plain girl tilting her head in confusion.
"One way to find out," Colin shrugged, as he grabbed the purple thing. It turned out to just be William's hat, with no body attached.
"It appears he used a disappearing spell!" Ally gasped, clutching her staff close to her chest.
Anthony, Colin and Grace exchanged a glance, before the crab fanatic stepped forward.
"Uh, sorry for asking, but please don't tell us you actually believe in that stuff…" he asked, getting Ally's attention. The roleplayer dramatically flinched back, before looking down slightly, sighing.
"I'll say this once," she broke character, looking to the other three with a small smile, though it was clear she didn't want to do this, "The whole 'great mage' thing is just an act. That's it. Don't tell anyone else."
"Okay," Anthony shrugged, "It's cool, we just wanted to make sure you're not insane."
Ally quickly went back into character, perking back up and moving on, "Onwards, to… the forest!"
As the group left to check, Ally dropped a smoke bomb that exploded into a fog, and the four were quickly gone as it cleared.
Confessional - Ally
The mage was covered in smoke, and she smirked to the camera, "Those three are a pretty fun makeshift party. I would certainly enjoy doing more with them."
In the guys' cabin, Rayna was looking around, checking under beds and chuckling to herself.
"Ohoho… please tell me there's something good in here," she murmured, rummaging through the drawers. Nothing was put in there thankfully, as the only thing anyone had properly left in there was Herman and his terrarium, and Rayna didn't feel like checking bags.
Rayna turned to the crab, and sighed, "Ugh, guess I'm not finding any ship fuel in here then."
Her face quickly turned to a small grin as an idea formed in her head, and she turned to the hermit crab, "How about I find you a fellow crab to ship you with, huh?" she asked, poking the edge of the terrarium.
Herman, naturally, didn't respond, so Rayna finished her own thoughts, "Hmm… if I have any extra time, I'll find another crab. I've got more important things to do!"
Before she could leave, CJ entered the trailer through his hunt, and looked fuming at Rayna's break-in.
"What the heck?" he shouted, grabbing Rayna over his shoulder, "Get out of here, I don't have time for this!"
CJ threw Rayna on the ground outside the trailer, and the shipper landed with a rough thud. The challenge seeker then went back on the hunt for interns.
"At least I can tell nobody's gonna be in there, at least."
The girls' cabin also had an uninvited guest, this time in the form of Dylan, who was rummaging through bags for valuables.
"Just some art supplies," Dylan shrugged, throwing them aside, "Not gonna be useful for anything..."
Dylan moved onto a second bag, this time pulling out a stuffed sloth, "Cute, but nope. I want something big…"
Onto a third. The troublemaker reached in, and pulled out a skateboard, "A skateboard? Someone would probably get mad if I took this, but I can do better…"
A quick montage showed his various rewards - a few books on astronomy, a large spellbook, some beauty products, and a few clothes lay scattered on the floor, and Dylan opened the final bag.
"A… diary?" he questioned, grinning at his find, "Now this is the kind of stuff I was looking for, hehehe."
The gremlin opened the diary, and began reading through it.
Another group had formed, this one consisting of Jesse, Bailey, Audrey and Celeste, who were looking near the bushes at the entrance to the camp.
Audrey was leading the group, and ran up to a nearby tree, shaking it furiously.
"I… don't think either of them could climb a tree well," Celeste noted, the astronomer looking up in thought.
Audrey tapped the top of her helmet, kinda understanding the logic, "I guess? I mean, I just wanna check really."
Celeste tapped her chin, the astronomer nodding along, "Fair point. While I do doubt that William would want to ruin his outfit, Sunny might've gone up there."
Jesse and Bailey made up the back of their little group, and the two were mostly stuck in an awkward silence.
"So…" Jesse broke the ice, brushing his shoulder as he looked in a nearby bush, "Do ya have any idea where they coulda ran off to?"
Bailey just shrugged off-handedly, peering further into the woods to try and get a peek, "Nah. I'm just following Audrey's idea, really. William should be easy to find, I think."
"Should be. Seems like a crafty type, to me. I doubt we'll be finding 'im anytime soon," Jesse said, while Audrey shook another tree in the distance.
Celeste opened another bush, and found William, who was hatless, "Aha!"
"Dang it," the intern pouted, crossing his arms and stepping out of the bush, annoyed his hiding spot was found so quickly, "Anyways, I must be gone!"
William dramatically ran off to find his missing headwear, as the quartet looked on, confused.
"Well, I found him, huh," Celeste noted, walking back to the camp, "Good luck looking for Sunny!"
Bailey waved her off, while Audrey and Jesse continued looking in the general area.
Confessional - Mathias
"Originally," Mathias began, pushing his glasses up to his face, "I was going to play hard strategy. Heavy sabotage, and constant manipulation, until I win, of course. Unfortunately, the majority of the other competitors clearly don't aim to play as strategic as I do, so I'll have to," he shuddered at the thought, "Become friends with them."
Further into the forest, Mathias was walking by himself. The chessmaster's eyes darted around, checking every bush and tree in the area. He looked down into a burrow, and kneeled down, poking his face into it.
He didn't notice Olivia, who had also went off on her own. The drama queen kicked the chess player to get his attention, causing him to jolt up… with a lizard stuck on his face.
He threw the lizard aside, and turned to Olivia, "What do you want?" he asked harshly, turning on his heel to the drama queen, who was looking at her nails.
"I was thinking," Olivia said, "That we should share where we've been. Clearly, we're both the strongest players, us teaming up would be a great idea."
A plan quickly formed in Mathias's head, "Of course. But first, you should tell me where you've been. How can I trust that you'll not just run off after I tell you."
Olivia weighed out the benefits, and crossed her arms, "Fine. I've checked this area of the forest, and the paths going there."
Mathias quickly ran off, not telling Olivia anything about where he went. Olivia shrugged it off, though she was slightly annoyed that he didn't tell her anything.
"Where could they be?"
Confessional - Olivia
"Of course, I didn't just check the forest, but I wasn't going to tell him that, was I?" she said, slyly smirking to the camera.
Confessional - Mathias
"Of course, there are exceptions," he finished his previous confessional off, with a cocky smirk.
Back at the camp, Alexis and Daniel were both looking around, with both of them gathering behind the mess hall, which William and Celeste entered not that long ago. The cyclist went up to the rich kid, and begrudgingly talked to him.
"Okay, you don't like me, and I definitely hate you, but we should work together," she reasoned, "Since I have no clue where Sunny went, and neither do you, obviously."
"Of course I know where she went, I know everything about her!" Daniel declared, offended, not realising that he got Sunny's gender wrong.
Dustin walked up, and, because he hated Daniel, wanted to prove him wrong, "Dude, Sunny's a guy. He told us when we met him. You know nothing about him at all, haha!"
Daniel looked even more offended, "Well, you're all lying! She wears a skirt, and looks like a girl. So, obviously, she's a girl!"
Dustin and Alexis exchanged a short glance, and both walked away from Daniel, who ran into the forest.
"I'll find her! You'll see!" he shouted out, missing a tree stump in his path that he tripped over.
"You had any luck?" Dustin asked Alexis, the guitarist smirking at Daniel's misfortune, "I haven't seen Sunny at all."
"Nope," Alexis groaned, "Where the heck did he go, anyway?"
Meanwhile, in the kitchen, Kevin was looking through the cupboards, to see what supplies they had.
"Okay, what do I have to work with?" he asked himself, opening the first cupboard.
He opened it to various pots and pans, which he grinned at, "Some fairly decent pots and pans, I can use those no problem."
He opened a second cupboard, to see a few canned ingredients, "Disgusting. If I have to, I'll use them, but still… I'd rather use fresh stuff."
The chef opened a third one, and inside was Sunny, who had contorted his body to fit inside, "A femboy?"
"Uh… hello?" Sunny chuckled, from within his hiding spot, "I thought I hid well, but you found me!"
"Wait, I won?" Kevin asked, confused, "I wasn't even trying to win, I just wanted to cook!"
Sunny blinked, and roughly stepped out of the cupboard, "We're, uh, supposed to go to Blake now that we're both found. You can cook later, though!"
Kevin sighed, "I guess so."
After quickly gathering everyone in the mess hall, Blake, William, and Sunny turned to the campers. The two interns held a green banner and an orange banner in their hands respectively, and stood either side of the host.
"Congrats to Celeste and Kevin for finding our interns… even if one of you did it on accident," Blake said, turning to the astronomer and chef, who stepped forward onto a green mat and an orange mat respectively.
"So… begin picking. You've gotta pick boy-girl-boy-girl, to keep the teams balanced. Ember and Bailey can be picked at any time," Blake ruled, spreading his arms out to let them begin, "And as Celeste found William first, she can go first."
"Alright," Celeste thought, scratching her chin, "I'll go with… Jesse."
The cowboy stood up, and stood behind Celeste, giving her a thumbs up, "Good choice, pardner. Good choice."
Kevin, comparably, was less confident in his choice, "I'm thinking… Bailey. Yeah."
The V-Tuber made their way up, giving Kevin a high five, "Thanks!"
"How about… Ally," Celeste shrugged, as the mage went up in a puff of smoke, reappearing behind her with a small laugh.
Kevin's next pick was thankfully much quicker, "Colin, you're up!"
Colin grinned, eagerly joining the chef's team. The crab fanatic took note of the orange colour, and the pieces began to be put together in his head.
It was Celeste's turn, and the astronomer had a choice in mind, "Dustin."
The guitarist snorted cockily, standing on the green mat, "Finally."
"Grace, you're with me," Kevin notioned, as the plain girl walked onto the mat and gave a polite bow to him and her new teammates.
Celeste scratched her chin, as many of the stronger competitors had already been chosen, "I'll go… Alexis. I've got a good feeling about this."
"Good to see somebody sees reason," Alexis scowled, looking down at Ally, "Even if they picked a pathetic coward and the cowboy wannabe as well."
Jesse was obviously insulted at being called a wannabe, "I'll have ya know I'm a full-fledged cowboy!"
Kevin was undeterred, and picked another teammate, "Anthony, you're cool."
The weeb grinned, walking up to Kevin, "I'm surprised I was picked this early, to be honest," he chuckled, "Not that I'm complaining."
Celeste's next pick was fairly easy, "Ember."
Ember was startled, and fell backwards off of their bench, "Wait, what?"
Audrey and Rayna, the nearest contestants, helped them up, as Celeste explained herself, "I'll be honest, there wasn't much competition in this choice."
Ember walked over, a little confused but taking it anyway, "I don't get what you're thinking, but if you say so…"
Kevin shrugged, "Audrey, with me."
"Woo-hoo!" she cried out, jumping out of her seat, over her table, over the other table and onto the mat, catching the others off-guard, "It's about time!"
Back with Celeste, the astronomer looked over the remaining girls, and settled on "May."
May didn't respond, just looking blankly into nowhere. Celeste called out to her again, "Uh… May?"
Dylan, who was right next to her, called out to Celeste, "I think she's dead!"
This shout was enough to cause May to snap into focus, "Huh? What?"
"You're with me," Celeste sighed, though she wasn't that bothered, "Just try to stay focused."
May nodded slowly, as Kevin tapped his chin.
"I don't trust you," he muttered, pointing at Mathias, "I definitely don't trust you," he pointed at Dylan next, "and you're Daniel."
"Hey!"
"So, CJ, you're with me," he said, though the challenge seeker wasn't thrilled.
"Can't believe it took you this long to pick the strongest player here," he grumbled, shaking his head as he walked up to his team.
"Sorry, but at least you'll give this team some much-needed physical strength," Kevin reasoned, "Since Audrey was kinda carrying us without you."
Celeste's next choice for a guy was somewhat easy, "Mathias."
Mathias rolled his eyes, though he didn't say anything as he joined Celeste's team.
Kevin turned to Olivia, "Olivia, you're up."
"About time," she smirked, "I see you're saving the best for last, of course."
"You could say that, yeah," Kevin smiled at the drama queen, who shrugged it off.
"Could I ask you something?" Olivia requested, blinking at the chef.
"Sure…" the chef raised an eyebrow, slightly skeptical.
"Could you… choose Daniel next?" she asked, blinking at the chef, "Just as elimination fodder."
"I see what you mean," Kevin nodded, getting the thought process, "I'll go for it."
Confessional - Olivia
"Additionally, I don't trust Dylan as far as I can throw him. Which is probably pretty far, but you get my point," she nodded, crossing her arms.
Celeste picked her next option, "You know what, Rayna, you're with me."
Rayna grinned, though she did give Olivia one look over as she walked to join Celeste.
Kevin was fully on-board with Olivia's plan, and turned to the annoying rich brat, "Daniel."
Daniel shook his head in disbelief, as he walked up to join the chef's team, "Finally, you see reason. Obviously, I'm superior to every single one of you plebians, but it was only natural you'd eventually come around to picking my superior skillset for your team."
Kevin rolled his eyes, and grumbled under his breath, "Good thing we're voting him out first."
Daniel thankfully didn't hear that, as the rest of the team glared at the rich kid.
Celeste turned to the final guy, and gave him a small smile, "Dylan, you're with us."
"Aw man, I'm last," the prankster shrugged, "Don't expect to sleep soundly tonight."
Celeste's eyes widened in panic, though the prankster just laughed it off.
"Don't worry, that was a lie… or was it?" he chuckled, patting Celeste on the back and making his way to his new team.
Kevin turned to Vera, who was just sketching on the table now, "Uh, Vera, you're with us."
"O-oh!" she stammered, as she walked up to the orange team, "I-I'm last… of course."
"Don't take it personal, okay?" Kevin defended himself, though he leant in close to whisper into her ear, "We're voting Daniel out first anyway, so you're safe for at least one ceremony.
Vera's face grew a little more hopeful, and she stood next to Olivia on the mat.
Blake clapped, getting everyone's attention, "Alright. Looks like we've got our teams. On the orange mat, we have the… Crushing Crabs!"
Sunny threw open the orange banner, unfurling it to reveal an orange crab on a black background. The team, save for Vera and Daniel, cheered, though none as hard as Colin.
"HOORAY! CRAB TEAM!" he shouted, audible to even some sharks swimming in the nearby waters.
"Now that we've got… whatever that was… out of the way, the green team shall be the… Terrifying Turtles!"
William dramatically unfurled his banner, the actor spinning around before it revealed a green sea turtle on a black background.
The Turtles cheered, though theirs was quieter. Whether this was because they had more quiet people or because they lacked a turtle fanatic was unclear.
Blake moved the camera up close to him, with the Crabs to his left and the Turtles to his right, "And there we have it. Two teams of ten teens about to battle it out for one million dollars. Who will win? Who will lose? And who will be the unlucky loser who gets sent home first? Find out next time, on Total! Drama! Kadachi Island!"
He raised his arms up, ending the episode.
Crushing Crabs: Anthony, Audrey, Bailey, CJ, Colin, Daniel, Grace, Kevin, Olivia, Vera
Terrifying Turtles: Alexis, Ally, Celeste, Dustin, Dylan, Ember, Jesse, Mathias, May, Rayna
A/N: While yes, there are four interns, I didn't want to flood this chapter with more character descriptions than there already is, so Connie and Nathan's debuts can wait an episode.
Hint for next episode: Do these people already know each other well? Probably not.
Anyways, thanks for reading, and until next time, Kadachi out!
