Total Drama: Ultimate Islands!
Episode 8: Somewhat Famous
Part 2: Alternate Show-offs
Remember when I said that the previous part was going to be short, well...that was a lie and trust me, there's going to be a bit more drama on the other teams in this part!
Along with indecent acts (CW: acts that are not decent), so there's that, some drama and quite a few unusual interactions, even if this is a slowe part than you think it is!
"And we're back with the team of some guy's dreams. The Swordfishes!"
Chris was actually pretty excited to be in it, as Oikawa and Joseph were just looking at each other for a good minute, practically sizing each other up, since they were both pretty boys that had unusual skills, charms and a lot of wit.
And the other team members were just wondering what was up with them.
"They've been like this for a straight minute." Sokka said.
"Dude, you know that means, that there's going to be some arguing going on." Lowain just bumped Sokka's shoulder.
"No, there's not! Ain't that right, Leshawna?" Sokka asked, very sure of the friendship.
"Uh, the first time that happened, some crazy feud happened." Leshawna answered. "You should know this, you've been in a war."
"I mean-" Sokka just got interrupted by Joseph.
"Next, you're going to say 'You really think you look better than me?'." Joseph predicted the future smugly.
"You really think you look better than me...and you think because you can predict the future means you're cooler than me?" Oikawa asked, plain tired of the guy. "No."
"I mean, you're kinda cool, but you're kinda annoying." Joseph remarked. "So, give it a rest already! This act's going to be the best"
"Sure, my act is better than yours!" Oikawa shouted, as the two guys just agreed to have a rivalry of sorts.
The two pouting guys were done and the acts were coming up, as Lowain was just ready to do his knife tricks and looked a little bit pissed off, but he finally did the thing.
Spinning his knives around like a proper thief, just flipping them up to catch them pretty easily with a cool smile and even doing two cartwheels for style and finishing it off with a pose.
A serious pose.
"Okay, okay, you're good!" Leshawna shouted. "That was real impressive!"
"Yeah, it's going in!" Sokka declared. "Wow, this list ain't that long yet..."
On the stuff he had written down was "Tails' thought-reading machine and Eva' lifting a ton of weights and now Lowain swinging knives around." and the next act came up.
"Y'all ain't ready for this!" Leshawna declared, before the music started up.
In fact, Leshawna was the next act with a dropped beat to boot, as Lowain, Tails and Sokka were now the trio to judge her and her...booty shaking, as she was just getting into the groove (or getting lost in the sauce.)
She was just moving around and bringing her moves to the new contestants, who thought it wasn't good and the booty shaking didn't really help, so Tails just stopped her and the music.
"What's your deal? I was just trying to do things out here!" Leshawna shouted.
"Whatever it is, it sucks." Sokka said. "Sorry, Leshawna!"
"What a surprise." Eva remarked. "Yeah, nothing's compared to me so far."
*Joseph's confessional*
The hero with a headband did a pose.
"Oikawa hasn't even see my full talent yet! I'm pretty sure that I'm going to win!" Joseph bragged.
*Oikawa's confessional*
"Yeah, I don't even have an act, but you see him! He's got muscles and a headbands and clackers that float!" Oikawa shouted. "But I'm smarter than him and can play volleyball, so I think we're equal."
*Confessional cut*
Joseph Joestar was a Joestar, so naturally, he pulled out his two clackers and decided to have a bit of fun by swinging them around and the judges weren't looking that impressed.
And then he almost dropped one of them and they were still spinning above the ground and Joseph caught 'em.
"Like my moves, yeah? I've got some more where that's coming from." Joseph declared, as he swung the clackers around at speed. "Yeah, this is just one of them."
"Show 'em on stage!" Tails shouted.
"Thanks." Joseph said, as he was just swinging his clackers all around like it wasn't big deal. "I bet my act's gonna be great!"
Tails, Sokka and Leshawna didn't have words to say for that or the next two, as Min Min came in with a pole and her long, long ARMS...which let her have the floor to reach the top.
"Hello, my name's Min Min, but you already know this, and I'm going to reach the other side of the pole!" Min Min stated, starting the stretch to reach the end of the pole with her noodle arms.
She was just trying to stretch arm as far as she could to grab something from the end of the pole, using all of her muscles to ensure that she used her skills wisely and didn't ruin her arms...and she managed to pat some throw pillow on the other side.
She then stretched her arms back, recoiling for a second before standing proud.
"Thank you, my arms only hurt a bit. Go to the ramen store!" Min Min said, as she went off.
"No-one cares about your ramen stuff!" Leshawna shouted.
*Tails' confessional*
"As much as the brown-haired pretty boy beef came out of nowhere, everyone's actually doing their thing with their best effort...which isn't always good, but it's a good thing!" Tails shouted.
*Confessional cut*
The Rhinos had some serious momentum from winning the last challenge and some of them had no idea to use that...as Harley Quinn was just breaking a table for her talent.
Tron Bonne wanted to use her Servbots, but they also happened to be not enjoying the bad food...so they were on strike, Squirrel Girl actually did a squirrel orchestra (It sounded just as the name would suggest) and Dante was doing some sword tricks, being the only one that passed.
"What the fuck's going on?" Dante asked.
"Art!" Harley declared, making it up.
And the "team leaders'" were just having a bit of a ball, as no-one had quite expected Basil, Tifa and Azula to judge the acts...but they were doing it anyways.
"Hold the fuck up, I need some more time." Harley said.
"No, you don't...what was that?" Tifa asked.
"I don't have an act, but I did have a table." Harley remarked, as holding up the bits of the table. "See ya!"
"Hey, you should actually get an act." Tifa told Harley seriously, who was just sitting back down. "I swear this team has some strange choices, Basil."
"I'd say that it is really befitting of this team. Strange and willing to do questionable acts." Basil said. "I'm surprised that I got the opportunity to get on here."
"Yes, it is suprising." Azula remarked with a smug smile. "But it makes sense, I have all of the talent."
"Chill out for a second, you two, we've got the old guy up next." Tifa said, with a tone of resignment.
Azula and Basil both groaned, when they realised that the coachman had his whip out and Pinstripe Potoroo, who looked like he wasn't that willing to do what he had done.
The Coachman looked...a little bit surprised.
"Oh sorry, I've got to do something." Coachman said, seeing that the donkey transformation was happening on stage. "...Never mind."
"What do you mean, never mind? He seems to be...oh no." Basil remarked, as the whole team saw it in real time...besides Lynn and Pepper Ann, who weren't there.
*Legoshi's confessional*
The wolf looked spooked.
"What the hell kind of teammate do we have? Some hairless guy who can turn people into animals...sounds great." Legoshi said, also miffed.
*Confessional cut*
2 minutes later, there was a lot of eyes that had seen the thing that can't be removed from memory, but ended up in people's memories.
"That went well-" Coachman sarcastically stated.
"Motherfucker, you can't just do that. Prepare your stuff before you scare people...geez." Sammy told the obvious, a little bit nervous. "Please don't hurt me."
"I'm going to do an act with my teammate." Coachman said nonchalantly. "Who's now a donkey!"
"Why are you so proud of that?" Azula just facepalmed. "You do your donkey tricks, oldie."
"Learn to respect your elders." Coachman said, as his donkey-teammate just leapt above his head and then started the whip dance.
The whip hits exactly where it needed, but Pinstripe just stood up like it was no big deal and then did a backflip that landed head first, before rolling off the stage and turning back to normal.
"You know what-" Coachman said, as Azula did a smug smile.
There was a pretty short pause.
"You should step aside for the most talented." Azula said, perfectly timing the words.
"Trust me, you're going to end up a jackass one day." Coachman remarked right back. "You warmongering princess!"
Tifa, Sammy and Basil weren't sure that things were not going well...as Azula chuckled, Sammy felt weird about rivalry and Tifa...about to say something.
*Tifa's confessional*
"Just as the challenge got done announcing, Sammy asked me if she could help in this challenge. I said yes, because I watched Pahkitew Island...her sister's definitely a piece of work, so doing this would help." Tifa explained, confidently.
*Sammy's confessional*
"I'm happy that Amy didn't make it in, but this also means that I've gotta do my own moves!" Sammy shouted. "My classmates believe in me!"
*Confessional cut*
Azula and Mai stepped up in their fighting costumes, both ready to show their fire-based fighting styles on the stage and these two weren't that mad, but someone had to do it.
"Mai, get your skills up! Azula, get a mom!" Lynn got them mad.
And they were ready to show off their synchronised fighting with Mai just throwing some fans and Azula just catching with a jump...and the synched-up act of anger starts.
From kicks that practically touched each other to a double overhead kick and a double flamed-up flip kick, these two worked well with each other, even down to the finisher with Azula's lightning setting up...Mai standing on top of her.
"See, it worked, I'm going to cheer some more!" Lynn shouted.
"Pro tip: If it gets them mad, it's not cheering." Sammy said. "Wish me luck, guys."
"Wishin' ya some luck!" Lynn declared.
Sammy was just standing on the platform, poms poms in hand, pushing her fear down the body and looking angry.
"Get 'em, girl." Tifa said.
"Push your weaknesses down!" Azula shouted.
Sammy got ready, and she started her routine, doing the cheerleading moves with some serious proficency, cartwheeling and doing the star jumps, moving those pom poms around with strength, confidence and bringing her flair to the routine.
She did fail the backflip, though and fell off her heet onto her back.
"Is that good enough?" Sammy asked.
"It's passable." Azula said.
"You do mean good. This is a young woman...doing moves." Basil said, respecting her space. "Some of which are great moves."
"Listen, I've seen enough flips to see that wasn't a great move." Azula said.
"I'm saying how it is obviously!" Basil stated with some anger.
"Yeah, you're through." Tifa just answered Sammy, who gave a confident wink and a thumbs up.
*Tifa's confessional*
"Between the six acts that we have, I doubt that we're going to not have enough acts. But most of them still are something and it's not in the good way." Tifa said.
*Confessional cut*
Rock and Iori came here to do one thing and they were real angry.
"Man, we came here to rock...with the sax!" Rock shouted.
"Fuck, I'm playing the saxophone. Let's just do this shit." Iori had an giant saxophone.
"Okay, man!" Rock said.
They both played an slightly disorganised version of Arashi no Saxophone, considering that Iori was...not in the mood to deal with Rock trying to do screams and notes were missed.
A lot of things were off and everyone noticed it and they both stopped after realising something obvious.
"I think we're whacked out." Rock said. "But it's okay."
"But it's not, though. Your dumbass is going to mess our notes and..."
The four judges were actually giving an reluctant thumbs up, even if the co-ordination was off.
As while that was happening, Soma and Judy were on a small mission, considering that they couldn't act for their lives...and they were just in the Rhinos' cabin.
Judy was sneaky and Soma was not sneaky.
"Man, this is actually looking good. What's with these beds?" Soma asked.
"They've got the winners' bedding...Soma, we've gotta find stuff out." Judy told Soma.
"Sneaking around the cabin's already pretty cool, though." Soma said nonchalantly.
"Yes it is, but we came here to find something." Judy told the cook, who was just smugly grinning.
Though the two were sneaking around the place, Kyo just opened the door to find stuff about Iori and immediately, Judy and Soma had their weapons out...before putting them back.
"What do you want?" Soma whispered.
"I want to find some Iori stuff and one of you guys has to distract." Kyo remarked, as Soma put his hand up. "Damn, you're eager."
"Yeah, I'll distract the rest of them." Soma proclaimed quietly, as Judy was still rummaging through the stuff.
Kyo and Judy were looking through some stuff, while Soma was just innocently standing out like it wasn't a big deal and looking out for his homies...and started looking at a leaf to judge its tea potential.
*Soma's confessional*
"I didn't want to know why I did this, but something tells me it's a bad idea. But it's an idea, though." Soma said, awkwardly smiling.
*Confessional cut*
As Soma was just standing there with a leaf and Kyo and Judy were just checking for some stuff, there was someone that were getting a bit suspicious of why Soma was there.
The teams were kinda far from the cabins...but not that far where they couldn't see people, which Carmelita did and she went there with intent and procedure.
Soma may have been an red-haired dumbass, but he did do a yelp.
"Hey, what's happening?" Soma asked. "You're looking...foxy."
"Your teammates are out there trying our their talents and so are mine. That's it...but what are you doing here?" Carmelita said, throwing some tension Soma's way.
"Uh...checking out these leaves for their tea-ness?" Soma said, feeling the tension.
"That's great and all, but you've been checking it for a minute...and looking back at the cabin. So, are you done?" Carmelita pressured Soma, who was taking it coolly.
"Pretty much!" Soma suddenly shouted. "See ya at the talent show!"
"Hey, wait-"
Soma was sprinting out of there, as Carmelita just scoffed at the cook and the two people that were definitely from the same team, most notably the rabbit that looked at her.
"I doubt they've got anything major." Carmelita said, before checking inside the cabin. "This is set to be the longest Total Drama after all and they've clearly left stuff behind."
*Judy's confessional*
"I've learned that the two alliances are lead by Azula and Coachman, two people who hate each other, can still work together sometimes, but also go by the beat of their own drum...and someone's seen me." Judy wrote it down on a notebook.
*Carmelita's confessional*
"I'm pretty sure that the two who ran had some information, but not that much and one of them was clearly Judy. Whatever they've got, it definitely is not enough to break our team down." Carmelita said. "The better question is...how is my team even functioning?"
*Confessional cut*
While that drama was going with the yellow and red teams, the greenest team in the game was just trying to get their talents into order on their own platform of wood and things were going...
...they were definitely going.
"Ayo for real, what the hell are you doing?" Riley asked.
"I'm doing my own number, man!" Donkey Kong shouted. "Candy Kong's gonna love it!"
"It's about the whole song, goddamn. 'Shower you with coconut cream pie!' is pretty okay lyric, tho...but it ain't shit." Riley said, sitting there...as though Snake wasn't in the toilet.
"Uh, thanks, man. Does it go through?" Donkey Kong said.
"Uh, yes, my nigga!"
While Riley and Donkey Kong were straight up having a conversation, the rest of the team was just waiting to show off whatever they've got in a duo, trio or going solo.
"Wow, that's finally over! Luigi, get in here!" Daisy declared, as Donkey Kong fistbumped her.
"Okay..." Luigi took Donkey Kong's strong fistbump and stood tall. "...that hurt a lot."
Luigi and Daisy were about to do something that they knew how to do, but no-one else knew what they were going to do...and their breakdancing stance was not helping things.
"They didn't even say a thing." Snake said.
"Well, it's probably a surprise." Samus remarked.
Luigi got into the breakdancing groove, doing a double backflip before going back into the stance to let Daisy have the floor, proceeding to do handstanding spin and transitioning into spin on her back to then stand back up, before high-fiving Luigi to flip into a handstand...before flipping back into normal.
And they both did the famous windmill spin for some reason, their feet touching...as Luigi got a bit nervous and got his head kicked in the process.
Daisy stopped for a second to see Luigi was fine, but the green-hatted plumber rubbed his forehead.
"I'm okay!" Luigi shouted. "It's a long story!"
"Long story short. Waluigi stole a bunch of keys, so Luigi had to up his dance game 'cause everyone was kung fu dancing and he beat everyone up with dance! For me, I was bored, okay?" Daisy asked, as she got almost all of the thumbs up. "Thanks."
"So, it wasn't a dream!" Luigi realised, getting a little bit scared. "Oh no..."
"Congrats to ya." Samus remarked, as Daisy gave a thumbs up and Luigi reluctantly did one.
"...Next." Snake just saw Penny be on the stage and Riley hop on it. "Something tells me that this ain't a two player thing."
"Hold on, hop off that stage! We both know that your bars aren't strong...heck, I could say that they're pretty weak." Penny remarked.
"No, they ain't weak. We're the team that's making some fire bars! Check this shit out!" Riley's ridiculous confidence was raising Penny's eyebrows.
"It's Penny P with Lil Breezy with the team! Shout out to my mom and my dad!" Penny shouted, ready to wear the shades with confidence.
"Fuck your dad!"
The judges felt the awkward tension, as the bars were actually coming in strong from Penny, as Riley was taking this real serious.
"I don't know what you heard 'bout me, on this isle I do this shit for free, we bout to get three million dollars and make ourselves some ballers!" Riley just rattled it off, Penny incredibly angry. "Yeah, what's wrong?"
"I thought we agreed no swearing..." Penny said. "...The heck's wrong with you?"
"Nothin ain't wrong with me 'cause I ain't fucking around and in this show, you fuck around and get found out!" Riley told her, as Penny just raised an eyebrow. "Nigga, I'm out."
"Cool, be outta here." Penny shrugged.
And the performance ended without even finishing, as the judges were silent on the thing, but Penny had her own bars to spit and she just turned on the music.
"Sorry 'bout that, I don't have to hold back. Uh-huh, that's how it is, sometimes." Penny just rolled it...as Riley was walking away from the stage.
*Samus' confessional*
"Wow, that was impressively bad. At least she did a good recovery to, at the very least, be able to be considered." Samus said. "I hope her and Riley are fine, though."
*Bugs' confessional*
"Not to be rude, but he did fuck around and find out. It had to be said and I said only factual information too!" Bugs remarked.
*Confessional cut*
There was a whole bunch of other acts too...as some of them were tryings and others weren't really able to try.
Tanya had some serious gun skills, but then again, they were BB gun skills, so there was quite a few bullet holes in some chairs and she knew when to stop all of that.
Yuri Sakazaki brung the uppercuts, kicks and booty bumps to the stage, which got some of the judges raising their thumbs up and then she unloaded her talent on a sandbag with her Ryuko Ranbu (read: the karate super combo) for some reason.
Robyn tried her best to be a hunter, carrying her crossbow around and Uraraka was lifting up the target awkwardly.
"Whoa, whoa, calm down!" Uraraka was slowly moving the target.
"I want to help my team out!" Robyn shouted, shooting another arrow. "And this is how I'm gonna do it!"
"Uh, sure." Uraraka got the target flown off by accident and then stopped it...but not before it got hit by an arrow. "We did it?"
"Yes, we did!" Robyn shouted.
And then the target hit Pinstripe Potoroo, who was already not in the mood for that...so he started doing some blasting rocks at them, both of them hitting Robyn and Uraraka.
"I'm sorry about that!" Uraraka panicked.
"What's your problem? You can't just throw rocks at someone." Ram told the potoroo. "That is rude."
"It's rude to just drop some target on me! Is that a metaphor or something? Huh?" Pinstripe Potoroo said, before sighing. "I'm gonna take a piss."
"You're definitely worthless." Ram said, as Uraraka tried to lift her. "So, learn your manners."
"If I fight 'ya, my bladder's gonna pay the price! You ain't even got an act, so see ya!" Pinstripe Potoroo shouted, just moving out of the conversation.
Ram stood tall, as Uraraka just sighed.
*Uraraka's confessional*
"As much as I don't mind helping someone out and stopping villain, insulting someone that got hit by a thing that I carried isn't the wisest idea!" Uraraka said. "I appreciated the thought, though."
*Confessional cut*
Legoshi was just doing what he did in school, as he made sure that the stage was set-up well and that the lighting was good enough for every corner to be visible and in the late afternoon, when the acts that were there were seriously being refined, the guy was just working on the lighting.
"Dude, what are you doing?" Chris asked Legoshi, who was setting up the stage...before realising something. "Never mind, keep on doing what you're doing."
"I'm just setting up the stage." Legoshi explained, a little taken aback. "Nothing big."
Legoshi just did his thing, as Chris chuckled at the pay that he didn't have to get, the wolf being joined by one of his teammates with some help.
"Hey, I heard you needed some help." Pepper Ann just walked up.
"Not really." Legoshi said. "I'm just adjusting the lights and moving them."
"Really?" Pepper Ann saw that Legoshi was just trying to rotate it into the right position. "I don't know who said it, but it seems like you're fine."
"That's...great. I'll just adjust this thing." Legoshi remarked, still trying to reposition the light. "There we go."
"I'll see ya." Pepper Ann just backwalked out of the situation.
Legoshi was alone again, readjusting the light again and seeing that it was in its perfect position and he wiped his sweat off...realising that he was still seven feet tall and pretty scary looking.
Legoshi gave a confident thumbs up, having the light in a good position and he breathed a good job well-done...even if he was just walking back to his homies, one of them hanging out with them.
"What, you gonna do nothing, bro?" Muscle Man asked. "We need a tall badass kinda guy in here!"
"I don't know, Muscle Man, I ended up beating a fellow classmate on stage." Legoshi said, nervously.
"Eh, heh, that's awesome!" Muscle Man saw that Legoshi didn't answer. "For real?"
"For very real. My friend basically stopped me." Legoshi said. "So, I'm not gonna do the act."
"Dude, that's extra points for being a tall badass! Oh man, you're missing out!" Muscle Man high-fived the wolf, who just rejected it. "...Yeah, I can't blame ya."
"No kidding, huh. Well, you guys go and do your thing. I'm just going to make sure that no-one gets hurt on my team!" Legoshi declared. "Seriously."
"Okay, whatever you say, man!" Muscle Man said, not taking things that seriously. "We're keeping that spot open!"
The two guys were just walking back to the camp, as there was two other people that were pretty pissed for some reason.
"Where the heck were you, Legoshi? We literally had the spot open to do badass things like slash at people and kicking them really hard for real!" Satori Tendo shouted. "Anyways, let's get this thing rolling."
"For real?!" Muscle Man shouted.
"For real." Legoshi was not excited.
"I mean...we've got no time to do this, so let's go!" Tendo just went, as Kristoff face-palmed.
*Kristoff's confessional*
"I swear, someone's going to get hurt and we're going to lose whatever this challenge is. I hope it's not that, but he did say 'for real'." Kristoff said. "Whatever, at least, I'll be out."
*Confessional cut*
Kristoff walked back into the cabin, as Azula was just there...chilling...like she didn't have an act to do like good chunk of the team and he knew what was up.
"Come on, we're not going to win sitting down." Kristoff said, very bored.
"I know, but the other teams are doomed to lose once I get my hair into order!" Azula remarked. "Besides, if we lose this one...you should vote for whoever's the weakest on the stage with me."
"I was going to do that anyways." Kristoff said, unimpressed. "Except for the voting with you...I've got a feeling that you're not the trustworthiest."
"You don't really need trust, it'll get in the way of your plans." Azula tried to intimidate the ice cutter.
"I'll not do that, thank you. Sven, let's get our act on!" Kristoff said, as he walked away from Azula's questionable advice.
Kristoff went out of the cabin to catch his reindder pet, as Azula just got her hair done.
"Our team will be the strongest team on earth...if we're strong!" Azula shouted out of the movable window.
"Alright, you do that." Kristoff shouted, making sure that his fellow teammate and "team leader" heard his words.
"Man, I bet there's some more drama after the break! Look at the name of the show, dude. Total Drama: Ultimate Islands!" Chris announced, transitioning into a black screen.
To be continued in the third part of this thing, where the acts are mostly going to be happening and the judges are going to be revealed.
