Total Drama: Ultimate Islands
Episode 1: The All-In-One Isles
Part 4: Before the First Challenge! (Revised)
With EVERYTHING finally settled, it's time for the part that most people have been waiting and the part where the show really gets its title from.
Some friendships may be started here, some contestants may become enemies and there might be two strategic moves from two people who hate each other...on different teams.
To 1602jaw, yep, there's going to be a lot more of that in this fic and to that guy, Episode 2's going to have a lot of that.
Memeking, I don't mind taking my time!
Finally, the massive cafeteria was where the massive group of contestants were going to stay in for a good while, as the teams were equally as massive as the cast and there might have been food.
But it sure was following the Total Drama tradition of being only somewhat edible, as the reactions were definitely mixed coming from...all of them.
"Goddamn, this is actual shit." Riley Freeman had to start it off.
"You said it. What kind of food is this?" Yuri shouted.
Chef just threw a good glare at them, doing his job with a lot more cooks in the kitchen.
"It's edible." Riley said through gritted teeth.
And Uraraka was feeling her nausea go up a bit from even eating the food.
"Alright, you guys are enjoying Chef's stuff, I'm going to go have my interns test the first challenge!" Chris just disappeared. "As well as other stuff!"
"Ok!" Uraraka just got done vomiting. "What kind of food is this?"
"I don't know, but it's definitely something!" Yuri shouted.
As a good chunk of the Deer were definitely in a complaining mood and the rest were trying to stomach the highly questionable taste, some others were sure there was going to be a problem.
As per the team with an actual (technically) gourmet cook and contestants that could eat...
...which wasn't everybody, as Aisling was...something and Connor and Genos were not too exact about the taste.
"I am going to assume that you can't eat this food!" Genos wanted to get the point across.
"That's not nice to Chef Hatchet, he can cook great food, this is just Total Drama!" Connor tried to shout over the table.
"Yeah, you better be listenin' to android cop over here!" Chef Hatchet, of course, heard all of that. "I ain't going to change much!"
Soma just heard this one and instinctively got up.
"What do you wanna say, Totsuki guy?"
Soma just started walking.
"Don't take the bait, you're probably going to end up working there!" Pit shouted at the guy, who had a confident smile. "No, Soma!"
The guy did have a box in his hand and Chef noticed something.
"Eat up."
"Glad to know that someone cares about the chef in here." Chef opened the box and in there was...squid covered in peanut butter. "What are you up to, boy!"
"Come on, it's peanut butter in squid." Soma said, as Chef Hatchet ate it.
And the Chef felt like he was getting a beat down from the food.
"It's bad, right?" Soma had a very smug smile.
"Yeah, but I ain't interested and I ain't hungry anymore." Chef just took the box, as Soma didn't look too surprised.
Soma went back down with his whole team looking at him.
"I just wanted him to show off some of my digusting dishes." Soma answered.
"Then you must have some balls of steel to go up against Chef Hatchet!" Dante shouted, stomaching the questionable food.
"Wait, who?"
*Chef Hatchet's confessional*
The chef didn't look impressed.
"I don't know what's up with that kid, but that combination wasn't even that bad. If he has a problem with me, he shoulda said it to my face!" Chef said. "Besides, it's a Total Drama thing at this point!"
*Confessional cut*
With a pissed off Chef in tow, there was quite a few people that were returning the dishes and they were probably getting some good words.
"Hey, uh, this is something." Clover said, meeting Chef's aggressive face.
"Yeah, I cook for all of you people and I still get no appreciation!" Chef shouted.
"Wait, do you have no budget?"
"You think money's an issue here!"
Clover slowly backed away from the counter, as a few others were looking on with their clean plates.
"Anyone got some words for me?" Chef asked angrily.
There was quite a few people that nodded sideways...besides Hank Hill, who just didn't look too impressed.
"I don't know why you're serving that prison food, but this ain't a prison. It's some sort of TV show!" Hank Hill said. "I don't think you know that!"
"What, you don't think I know that?!" Chef came up to the Texan dad's face.
"No, I mean you're not understanding properly."
"Yeah-"
There was a whole lot of vomiting in the room, as there was a few people couldn't get with the badly cooked egg with something else on the side.
"Excuse me, we've gotta issue out front." A guy that looked similar to Lowain...except more pink said. "Quite a few people are blowing chunks!"
"Yeah and our bro's out there." Another guy that also looked like Lowain except with grey hair and generally grey clothes. "I think he's okay."
Chef just grunted, as he had already done the food serving.
As Lowain was getting to grips with the poorly cooked brunch, his two bros were definitely cleaning up the vomit and he could see the two of them do their thing.
The grey-ish bro with furry ears and tanned was Tomoi or Tommy and the pink-ish bro with tanned skin and they were just ready to have a conversation.
As some others were vomiting.
*Joey's confessional*
The guy just done cleaning his mouth.
"This is kinda very sick in a bad way, but who are those guys and why do they know Lowain like that?" Joey asked. "Trick question, they're definitely brothers."
*Confessional cut*
And then they talked.
"Bros, I'm glad you guys are here, even if you're working hard at the vomit clean-up! Nice mop, dudes!" Lowain was just talking to the others.
"Yeah, we're interns, doing the whole nine yards and all of that crazy stuff." Tomoi exclaimed. "Serious, these challenges are killer."
"Not that surprised, this show is just mad challenge and drama queens and kings all around!" Lowain shouted.
"Dude, you've should've seen what else was there." Tomoi said.
"I know, you can't say 'cause it'd be spoilers." Lowain remarked.
As the trio were talking, Daphne wasn't even sure why they were talking like this.
*Daphne's confessional*
The redhead with the blue dress looked confused.
"Why do they look like surfer guys that came from the medieval times? I mean, what kind of clothes are that?!" Daphne shouted.
*Confessional cut*
As that was happening, there was a kind of tension in the place...even if it was just cleaning up time.
Hank and Chef were having a bit of a staredown from the bench and the counter, the teams' rivals were just also looking at each other and even some members within the teams were noticing the absurd amount of tension.
"Wow, this has to be one of the most uncomfortable experience." Mai said.
And there was more people coming, because...of course there was, as the 123 contestants were sure of something that was happening outside of the massive cafeteria.
Someone really did look outside and noticed that the sun was almost below the horizon, as these guys were going to have to get used to each other and did their confessionals.
*Tiana's confessional*
"Er, hello everybody at home, proud to be here. I don't know how long that I'm going to say, but I'm going to say that I'm hoping to have a good time here!" Tiana shouted with a smile.
*Smee's confessional*
"Cap'n, I know that I might not be there to help you, but I can bring a great treasure! Wait, is there even treasure here?"
*Confessional cut*
With that being said, no-one could predicted when Chris wake them up...as there was a tradition of just messing people's sleep up that a lot of the contestants knew...thanks to Owen existing.
"Oh god, I'm not going to be prepared to wake up early!" Owen shouted. "Been having too much fun lately!"
"Trust me, that's going to end with the host and these great bunch of teammates." Iori just grumbled.
"Oh yeah, you're the Yagami guy! I can't believe you're so strong!"
"I can't believe that you're not getting out of my face."
"Come on, don't be like that."
Owen was just waving at all of the other people that were waving at him back, as they were about to get the arm thing.
"Hey, guys, what are you guys up to?" Owen asked.
"Trying to have a good time sleeping!" Mai shouted.
"Just having a good time and throwing nuts around!" Squirrel Girl said.
"Hopefully quelling tensions." Shulk stated, still seeing a detective and a donkey trader generate just that.
"Okay, this sounds like a good team!"
This team were definitely welcoming Owen, despite a good chunk of the team glaring at him, as he got a whole lot of high-fives and all of that.
Dawn was getting a different reception from the Crows, but it was mostly because of her apparent weirdness.
"How the hell are you able to recognise that?" Kageyama asked, avoiding some guy's chuckles. "You're smart, right?"
"Hello, they obviously do script the introductions!" Terry Bogard exclaimed.
"I didn't even use my chi that time. I just read something." Dawn answered the whole team.
"That makes a lot of sense, because I don't think you would've predicted that." Terry Bogard said. "Though, your powers are probably cool."
"No, no, it's fine." Dawn said. "I'm just happy to be on a good team."
"Yeah and since we've got powers, we're hoping to combine all of our faces and hopefully, most of us will make it to the merge." Kipo told the team, as Sandy stepped in.
"I know that you have been in Total Drama before, so make your second choice count!" Sandy shouted, as Dawn just silently nodded.
"Dude, make it count for all of us!" Giovanni declared. "We'll be the best team in here."
"That's still a lot to carry on one person, but I think we can do this!" Riku was sure of something.
All of the team were walking back to their cabin with a stride, besides Dawn, who was calmly walking.
The two newcomers were definitely feeling a lot different in their own teams and even between each other, as Tiana was a normal person in the Daring Deer, a team packed the brim with personality-driven powers.
She did have words that got the younger girls together.
"Whoa, you turned into a frog?!" Mystique Sonia asked. "You must have a lot of stories to tell."
"Weirdly enough, it's just one crazy story. That's how I met my husband, though." Tiana told her.
"Damn, that's crazy!" Yuri shouted. "Was he a frog, too?"
"He got turned into a frog like me."
"Oh, that makes a lot of sense."
"No, it doesn't really. There's no way that someone benevolent would actually do to some random waitress and a prince." Ram stated, being the demon maid that she was.
"Wow, you're so smart for a-" Tiana said, before Samus just stopped her.
"-a short adult." Samus finished that sentence, as Tiana raised her eyebrows.
"Yeah, I know. Some adults are really short and have pink hair!" Tiana shouted, as Samus just went out of the way.
"You should continue the story, please." Ram aggressively told Tiana.
"Yeah. I'm not gonna say his name, but he was known as the Shadow Man that scams people, does voodoo stuff and nearly took over New Orleans. I don't know what his problem is, but I'm glad he's dead." Tiana explained, as the others were just entraced in her story.
There was definitely a lot of awe in the place, as the restaurant owner was feeling the pressure.
"It was a fine enough story." Ram said with an unimpressed face.
"Okay, that's cool. What's been up with all of you?" Tiana just asked.
"Just the usual, saving the world from an evil guy one at a time!" Mystique Sonia shouted. "With my hat."
Tiana just high-fived the hat and the hat high-fived her without much problem, as there was the guys that were talking in the place.
"Damn, guys, we're just out here...chilling." Jude smiled with confidence. "With so many freaky dudes."
"Wow, you really call everyone dudes. I'm not just a dude...I'm a good dude!" Scott shouted.
"Honestly, you two don't have any surprises according to my intel." Snake did managed to spook the both of them.
"Oh yeah, I guess they've got it on the internet." Scott was still in the middle of eating...something.
"Wow, they really do!" Jude exclaimed, as Snake just shook his head. "So, guys, what do you think we're going to do tomorrow?"
"A challenge...with our teams?" Scott remarked, as Jude was just getting it.
"Maybe it's something about doing crazy with the team. Because this is the big one, dude!" Jude exclaimed, as Scott was looking at him weird.
*Snake's confessional*
"As much as most of my team are probably good people, some of them would absolutely rule the game if they could together. You bet that I'm going to add to this team's potential threat." Snake said with confidence.
*Confessional cut*
Smee was practically out of place in the Swordfishes, which is odd when most of the team is somewhat out of place, but he notably tripped when he came in.
"Sorry, mates! I hope to be a good player in the game!" Smee shouted, even saluting the random dudes that were in the cabin.
"I'm sure that you are." Sokka sounded skeptical.
"Hey, you could be a little bit nicer to the pirate senior. It's not everyday, we get an old guy." Lowain remarked, as he pointed to the pirate.
"Why, thank you! I hope to steal some stuff for you guys." Smee told all of them.
There was a lot of raised eyebrows.
"...Honestly, I don't know what you could steal." Lowain just asked.
"Yeah, the only thing there could be was good food." Falco remarked.
"I don't think so, because the kitchen did smell...really bad." Smee stated, as he remembered the smell. "I don't think it could smell so bad."
"Besides, we're about to kick some ass tomorrow!" Reigen shouted at them.
"I think we are." Falco said, borderline unimpressed. "Now, what kind of challenge would happen tomorrow."
"A hard and crazy one no doubt! Why else would he delay the challenge until tomorrow." Sokka exclaimed, as there was a lot of raised hands.
"...The sun is down, the sky's turning dark and to be honest, I'm not tired!" Tails yelled, as Sokka was more than interested in not being tired.
"Me too, I'm ready to see whatever Azula's doing in here!" Sokka yelled.
"I don't know, I get the feeling having some rivals distract from doing a bunch of stuff on the island is a bad thing." Reigen remarked, as he saw the three un-tired guys be excited for the challenge.
"Yeah, but you're also technicall an scam artist when you're not with the kid. So, we can scope out what the competition does." Tails told them.
"...I'm just going to do pirate things!" Smee exclaimed, not even sure why he was here.
With the whole team more than ready to discuss whatever the hell that they want and the 29 members of the massive team all doing their own thing and they were really doing it.
Such as...fighting each other?
Albedo and Arle were practically glaring at each other, as Cassie Cage and Kasumi Todoh were just watching whatever was in front of them.
"Listen, no human can try to bond with me! They abandoned me in the middle of the game!" Albedo shouted.
"I know losing video games can be real tough, but why are you trying to kill me?" Arle asked, as she was dodging the swings.
"...I hate humans, are you not listening?!" Albedo was pretty much swinging punches.
"Yes, I was listening. Your reason sounds dumb and I don't know what's up with the succubus thing." Arle was defensively throwing spells.
"Listen, I live for only my master and I bet you would not understand that!"
These two were being watched outside by Kasumi and Cassie, sure that they got into...something.
*Cassie Cage's confessional*
The Special Forces millenial looked interested.
"Wow, some people are really fighting each other for video games, huh?" Cassie asked, as the fighting was still going on. "Also, I don't know what's wrong with Albedo, but she has a lot of things that are wrong, so I'm not surprised."
*Kasumi Todoh's confessional*
The almost blue-haired akido pracitioner was confused.
"Seriously, I don't know what their problem is and why it is a problem, but it is!" Kasumi shouted.
*Confessional cut*
"These 123 contestants in their four teams are going to wake up to our first challenge and they're already excited, but the first one is going to be a major bummer for them!" Chris announced. "Total Drama: Ultimate Islands really starts in the next episode, so stay tuned!"
The camera should've cut off here and it was cut, but...
"Wait, what's wrong with Total Drama: Ultimate Islands?"
...someone had to question the title
To be continued in the second episode, as there's a whole lot of token-snatching with the absurd amount of contestants that try their best.
3 for the original cast, 2 for the ROTI cast and 2 from Pahkitew Island sounds mostly right for the returning characters.
