The scene opens up on Chris, looking pale, in his bed. He has a box of tissues on the table right next to him.

"Hello viewers" He said as he was trying to hold back a sneeze. "Dis season is going do be a bit different ACHOO!" He grabs a tissue and blows his nose. "Why? Because unfortunately di am sick. So dis season Chef will de most of de hosting duties. Alongside him will de Hayley, a highly advanced ai that dill be providing the environments for this season. Di hope to be joining them around the halfway point. Doh yah, and dit's taking place entirely inside dof a hotel that I purchased specifically for the use of this season. Each floor will come with a unique theme and an equally unique challenge. That's right, dit's a battle to da top! Who dill make it? Who dill be thrown out of a window? Find out on TOTAL...DRAMA...HOTEL MADNESS!"

*Theme song plays *

Chef is sweeping the floor.

"Whelp, this is gunna be interesting."

"At least you still have me." Hayley responds.

"Yah but Chris is the backbone of this show. I'm going to miss him."

"Hey, di'm still here you know" Chris interrupted from a video screen.

"Yah but it's just not the same."

Just then, two boys run into Chef. They were both on the shorter side only one was about an inch taller and had brown hair in a small ponytail and was wearing a purple jersey with gray shorts and sneakers. The other one, an inch shorter at about 5'6", also had short brown hair only his was jelled. He was big and muscular, and was wearing a black t-shirt, blue farmer jeans, and black trainer shoes.

"HEY WHAT WAS THAT FOR?" Chef yelled loudly.

"Oh sorry" the slightly taller one, named Tyson, apologized.

"Yah we must've not seen where we were going" said Kevin.

"ERRRR...Just sit over there and wait for everyone else"

"Yah, that's not going to happen."

"Hey Tys, race you to the pool?"

"You're on!"

They both run toward the pool at the same time, but they run into 2 girls. The girls were about the same height at 5'2" and around the same weight. The first one had dirty blonde hair tied up in a messy fishtail braid. She wore a light pink sweater, a black knee length pleated skirt, white leggings, and pink ballet flats and had a muscular build. The other one was significantly more curvy with noticeable D-cup breasts. She wore a brown and gray striped shirt with a gray tie, matching dress pants and black shoes, and top it off, a brown beach hat with a feather on top and white gloves.

"Not again" Tyson said.

"HEY YOU WATCH WHERE YOU'RE GOING!" The dirty blonde haired girl yelled at Kevin.

"NO, YOU WATCH WHERE YOU'RE GOING!" Kevin snapped back.

"W've got as much of a right to be here as you do." She responded

"Yah well...so do I!" Kevin responded.

"Oh, go jump off a bridge, little man!" The other girl yelled at him.

"Hah, that's funny coming from you!"

"HMPH!"

"You're just a bunch of *points at Laurie* ugly *at Margaret* little girls!"

"Oh no he didn't" Laurie said.

"Oh yah, and what are you going to do about it?" Kevin questioned.

The girls look at each other then jump on Kevin and proceed to beat him up.

"Hey, break it up!"

Tyson tries to break it up, but he just gets sucked into it. Just then Chef jumps in and breaks it up.

"*Sigh* This is why I told you two to sit and wait over there. Man, I can't trust you kids for 5 seconds!" Chef huffed.

"He started it!" Laurie said.

"No, you guys started it with your ugly faces!" Kevin retorted back.

"*Sigh* I'd really like to put you guys in a jail cell right now!"

"That can be arranged."

Hayley generated an old timey, western style jail cell, which Chef promptly threw Kevin and Tyson into.

"WOAH!"

The girls looked impressed.

"Eh I've seen better." Margaret said.

"I suppose I should introduce myself. Hi my name's Hayley and this season I am going to provide the environments for each and every one of your challenges. If you can think of it, I can make it happen. For example…"

Hayley generates a hammer over Kevin, which falls on his head immediately. The girls laugh at this.

"Oh come on, like we all weren't thinking about that just now."

"Hmph. Filthy redhead." Kevin said, annoyed.

"Alright you losers, I'm going to beat all 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6 of you!"

Everyone turned around to see a fat guy standing at about 5'6". Hehad to be at least 330 lbs with brown hair that was brushed to the right. He was wearing a blue jacket over a white t-shirt with black jeans, the same color boots, and a frankly ridiculous looking black fedora with a fake rose in it.

"And you are?" Laurie asked.

"I'm Guy, Guy Botiaga and I am so going to own you princess, and that goes for the rest of you too!"

"YO YO YO WASSUP! D-DAWG HERE TO ROCK THE COMPETITION" someone exclaimed loudly behind him.

Guy turned around to see a scrawny looking guy, standing at 5'3", about 130 lbs, very tan skin,wearing a black leather jacket with a golden necklace around his neck, red baggy pants and the same color sneakers. He also had a gold watch around his left wrist and a red bandana on his head.

"Shut up, no one was talking to you." Guy snapped back at him.

"No you shut up, I'm going to win this season then start my rap career." Dante exclaimed back at him.

"Whatever, loser!"

"Ugh, could the guys here get any more annoying?" Margaret asked.

Suddenly a cloud of smoke appears in the hotel lobby.

"Oh what now?"

"AND NOW INTRODUCING THE BEST OF THE BEST, THE BIGGEST, TOUGHEST, STRONGEST, MEANEST, AND SOON TO BE WINNER OF THIS SEASON, DEEEEEEEEEEEEEEOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOON BLLLLLLLLLLLLLLAAAAAAAAADE!"

A guy with mocha brown skin and black hair in a short, well kept cut that is styled in 360 degree spinning waves jumps out of the smoke cloud. He was tall, about 6'4" with an extremely muscular build, at least 225 pounds, and was wearing a black shirt with the words "Primetime Wrestling Inc" printed in white on it, blue jeans and black sneakers. After jumping out of the smoke cloud, he immediately plays a soundtrack of a crowd booing on his phone.

"OH THAT IS SO TOTALLY GANGSTA!" Dante exclaimed.

"Ugh, this conversation is going to make me regret living." Margaret chimed in.

"Man, do you know what gansta even is?" Deon said.

"Yah, bling bling, rapping, and doing hand signals!"

"You gotta be kidding."

"Nope!"

"Man, you don't know jack!"

"YO! I'm all about the thug life homie!"

"As someone who grew up around REAL gangster culture, I must say that you absolutely have no idea what it really is." Margaret interrupted.

"Oh yah, and what do you know about gangsta culture?" Deon snapped back at her.

"Probably more than both of you dumba**es! At least pronounce it right. It's gangster, not gangsta."

Confessional: Margaret

She sits angrily in the confessional, arms folded. "UGH, I swear, if I'm on the same team as those two, I'm going after them first.

"You mean eliminating them first?" Hayley interrupted.

"Ummmm...yah suuuuure. Let's go with that."

Confessional over

Suddenly a bus pulls up dropping off 2 girls and a guy. Another girl proudly jumps out of the bus in front of them.

The girl, with long wavy blonde hair wearing a plain white tracksuit which was unzipped, revealing her red leotard with a yellow flame design got up in everyone's face and proudly said "Alright everyone, your winner for this season is here! You all might as well just give up now!"

"HEY! I'M GOING TO WIN THIS SEASON LITTLE GIRL!" Guy gets up in her face.

"NO I AM!"

"I AM!"

"HA, I think you're sadly mistaken."

"No, you're mistaken you...you…"

"Elizabeth Dior, and I'm a professional, well actually semi professional acrobat."

Another girl, wearing a long purple vest that covers her mouth, giant rounded glasses, long blue jeans, black gloves, white socks and black running shoes got annoyed and said "Yah, and she was saying that the whole ride here."

"Oh yah, and I'd like to see you try this!"

Elizabeth gets down and proceeds to lift her legs over her back so that her feet are right next to her head.

"I'd rather not even try." Maria responds then goes to stand next to Laurie. She looks like she's just seen a ghost when Margaret gets back from the confessional.

"Excuse me, where's the confessional?" She asks Margaret nervously.

"Over there."

Confessional: Maria

She sits nervously in the confessional, all balled up.

"OH CRAP...IS THAT...AND…*gulp* ME...AND...AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!"

She runs out of the confessional.

Confessional over

She continues sprinting until she gets into the jail cell with Kevin and Tyson.

Confessional: Margaret

"Look, I have no idea who that girl is, can't keep track of everyone who I manage to tick off, but she seems pretty scared of me. Maybe I can use that to my advantage."

Confessional over

"What's her deal?" Another girl wearing a white long-sleeved t-shirt with yellow stripes under a yellow vest, gloves, a short skirt with a brown belt over a pair of white shorts that surpasses the skirt but it doesn't quite reach to her knees and yellow and white boots spoke up.

"Oh my God, are you Sunny Moon Noir, the Swedish idol?" Laurie asked.

"Um...yes."

"Can I have your autograph, you are such an inspiration to me!"

A big and burly guy with short red and orange hair in a Buzzcut, wearing a black glasses, a black t-shirt with cargo pants, and brown boots gets in front of Sunny and says "Yah, that's not going to happen. Sonia is here to compete, not for an autograph signing."

"It's okay Franchesco, it's not like it's one of those annoying stalkers."

"Oh, alright."

Frachesco steps aside and lets her sign an autograph for Laurie. Just then a girl with short and spiky blonde hair, a red bandana, wearing black short sleeved shirt under a blue jean vest, black jeans and brown boots in a motorcycle pulls up. In the side car is a red-haired guy wearing a white shirt underneath an unzipped black hoodie, blue jeans with a belt with a skull buckle, and red tennis shoes with a guitar.

The guy gets up, looks at the 3 people in the jail cell and says "What happened here? Were they bad...TO THE BONE?" Rival said.

"Hey you watch your mouth! You have no idea who you're dealing with!" Kevin yelled at him.

"Hey he was just trying to lighten the mood!" Olga responded.

"What really happened to these three?" Rival asked.

Laurie points at Kevin "Oh, that one was being mean to us."

"Yah so we beat him up." Margaret said.

"And I got caught in the middle of it." Tyson said.

"Ma...Ma...Ma…" Maria kept repeating, petrified.

"Really, and I missed it?" Olga chimed in.

"It was no big deal." Margaret replied.

"Oh, so I guess you gals were really taking care of BUSINESS!" Rival said.

"Why did you emphasize the word "business"?" Laurie asked Rival.

"Because it was...oh nevermind." he replied.

Up next were two guys who were distant from each other. The first one was about 5'1" 120 lbs, wearing a dark blue cardigan with a tie on top of dark colored formal pants and plaid print dress shirt. He was very focused on the tablet that he had in his hands. The second guy was 5'4", severely underweight for his size, wearing a white and blue checkered button down shirt with the sleeves rolled up to his elbows and left open with a red t-shirt underneath that's tucked into his tan khaki pants which have a black belt holding them up, and brown leather shoes. The first guy bumps into Deon.

"Oh, excuse me." Carter said.

"Excuse me, who do you think you are!" Deon snapped back at him.

"*Sigh* This is why I don't like talking to people." Carter said back and then he went to his place in the corner of the lobby.

The other guy walked up to Elizabeth and Margaret and said "MOVE!"

"Make me." They both said back in unison. Atticus pushes them out of the way then takes out a history book and starts reading it.

"Excuse me, what's your problem?" Elizabeth said.

"Yah yah, go away now. Shoo!"

Confessional: Margaret

"Ugh, just what I need, another idiot."

Stressed out, she rubs her forehead.

"I can't believe I'm spending 4 weeks with these people."

Confessional over

Just then, a girl with purple hair and a light tan skin tone lands on the ground in front of the hotel, . She was about 5'2", 130 lbs, wearing a peach colored turtleneck sweater with a cherry printed on it, a light blue flowy skirt reaching above knee length, white tights, white boots, and beanie on her head that was the same color as her shirt. She had a huge smile on her face and a beaten up white teddy bear that had the name "Cherry" written on its name tag in her right hand.

"Hi everyone!" Cheori exclaimed. Everyone just looked up at her, unimpressed then went back to what they were doing. She immediately goes over to Margaret and Elizabeth who were still fighting with Atticus and tries to cheer them up. "What's going on " she asks.

"This guy came up her and pushed me out of the way!" Elizabeth replied.

She turns to Atticus and asks "Why did you do that?"

"GO AWAY!" Atticus breathes on the 3 girls and they immediately drop to the floor.

Confessional: Atticus

He sits up in the confessional with a weird smile on his face.

"Heh, I had a piece of garlic, an onion, and some limburger cheese before I came here in case anyone got in my way, and there's plenty more where that came from."

He takes an onion out of his pocket and takes a bite out of it.

Confessional over

Two guys were having a conversation with each other.. The first one was short and stocky with an average frame, about 5'3", 125 lbs, had purple hair in a mid-length ponytail, and was wearing a dress shirt with rolled up sleeves underneath a cream cardigan sweater, tan corduroy pants, and brown loafers. He also had on black glasses and a ring on each finger, of which some were real and some were fake. The second guy was much taller, about 5'10", overweight at around 220 lbs, wearing a large gray hoodie, black shorts, and black and white sneakers.

"No way, your girlfriend is a pop star?" the shorter guy asked.

"Yah, you want to see her?" the other guy replied back.

"Yah I do!"

"Okay" the taller guy says and gets out his phone and shows his "hot babe" to the other guy, who looks thoroughly floored, yet intrigued at the same time upon seeing her.

"Um, you do realize that Mitsuke is just an app on your phone, right?"

"SHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH! She doesn't like it when people say that!" Andrew said then shielded his phone with his hand.

"Hmmmmmmmmm...Interesting." Qwynn says then gets out a notepad and pencil then writes something down.

Qwynn enters into the lobby and takes a good look at everyone there and immediately goes over to Deon and Dante, who are still arguing. "Hey guys! What's going on?" He asks both of them.

"Who are you? Dante asked him.

"Oh, I'm Qwynn, Qwynn Masters" he says and shakes both Dante and Deon's hands.

"Listen you little punk, you stay out of this. This is between him and me" Deon said back at him, sternly.

"I just want to know what all of the fuss is about" Qwynn said back at him.

"Look, all I was doing was trying to make the best entrance ever and he had to ruin it with this gangsta crap!"

"All I said was that it was so totally gangsta. It was a compliment!"

"Interesting" Qwynn says then attempts to write something down in his notebook, but Dante interrupts him by pointing to his left pinky finger and saying "Hey, is that a ring pop?"

"Maybe" Qwynn says back to him, then turns away from Dante and takes a lick from it. He then turns back and thinks for a second before saying "Alright, first one to let me interview them gets the ring pop!"

Meanwhile Andrew sat down next to Sunny.

"Excuse me, who are you?" Frachesco asked him.

"Oh uhhh I'm Andrew, sir."

"Do you know who you're sitting next to?"

"Um no, but she smells nice."

"Thank you." Sunny said.

"Alright, that's it!"

Frachesco grabs Andrew and attempts to throw him out like yesterday's garbage but Sunny stops him.

"Stop" she says.

"Are you sure, a second ago he was sniffing your hair."

"Oh yah sure, it's not like he wanted to steal my makeup or something like that."

"Actually, I was kinda...thinking about doing that." Andrew said sheepishly.

"WHAT?" She said surprised.

"Yah but I stopped myself because I kinda have a girlfriend."

"Oh, really?" Sunny said.

"Yah, she's a pop star." Andrew says, then immediately gets embarrassed afterwards.

"Oh yah, well so am I."

"Really?" Andrew says nervously.

"Yah, is she someone I would know?"

Andrew's face immediately gets as red as a tomato after she says this.

"Well…" Sunny says, waiting for an answer.

"Um...I've gotta go. See ya!" Andrew gets up from his chair and runs away.

"What's his deal?" Fracnhesco said.

A limousine pulls up, dropping off two girls. One was almost 290 lbs, about 6'1", espresso colored skin with a blonde weave, wearing a dull pink bralette underneath a black see-through top with stars on it, periwinkle high-waist jeans with a belt, and pink strapped heels. The other girl was. The second was considerably shorter at about 4'6", 100 lbs, and had long black hair that covered her left eye. She was wearing a black long-sleeved t-shirt, black boots, black leggings, and a red miniskirt with black checkered pattern.

"Thanks for the ride" the short and thin girl says in a cute, sweet voice.

"Oh no problem" the other girl said.

They both enter into the hotel lobby. The taller girl is immediately drawn to the jail cell, and the three people inside of it.

"What in the world happened here? She asks.

"HAHA you're so fat!" Kevin says.

"Woah, I didn't know girls could be that tall!" Tyson said.

In response, Regina smacks them over the head with her purse, then she notices the other girl on the corner.

"Hey, what's wrong?" she says.

Maria looks up and sees Regina smiling back at her.

"It's just..." She tries to continue on, but then just gets nervous and hides her face.

"Oh come on, it can't be that bad."

"No, it's too difficult for you to understand."

"Look, whatever it is, I'm sure I can handle it."

"Okay well...I'm kinda on the run. My family kinda p*ssed off some very powerful people."

"Oh...well I didn't think it was THAT bad."

"See, I told you. Now if you'll excuse me, I'm going to go back to hiding myself thank you very much!"

"Hey, you keep your head held high, because you're worth it!"

"Really?"

"Yah, things may not be going alright for you now, but that doesn't mean you have to hide yourself from the world."

"Actually…" she takes a peek at a still knocked out Margret.

"What?" Regina asks.

"Nothing." Maria says.

Meanwhile the other girl was drawn to Guy and Laurie, who were fighting with each other.

"Oh yah?" Laurie said to Guy.

"Yah!" Guy said back.

Liz clears her throat before saying "Um, excuse me."

"HMPH!" Both Guy and Laurie said.

"I said excuse me."

"Oh sorry, I didn't see you there." Laurie said.

"GO AWAY!" Guy said, rudely.

"That's no way to greet someone." Liz said back.

"Yah well, I don't care. Move along little girl."

"Hah, like I should be scared of you, or take anything you say seriously, I mean look at that dumb hat you're wearing. Did you get it from a thrift store? And don't even get me started on that big, fat belly!"

"Alright, that's it!" Guy said angrily, but before he could land a punch, Liz said "I bet I could beat you in an eating contest."

"You're on!" Guy said.

"Now this I've gotta see. Laurie responded to all of this.

Chef was going through a checklist of all the contestants' names.

"Alright, Regina?"

"Here" Regina said.

"Rival?"

There's no response.

"I said Rival!"

"Dude, he said your name." Olga whispered in his ear.

"Oh um here!" He finally said.

"Alright, Sonia?"

"Here" Sunny spoke.

"Okay then we're just missing…"

Before he can finish the hotel door swings open. At the door is an Asian girl, about 6'2", underweight, with very messy navy blue hair wearing a backwards red baseball cap. She was chewing gum and she wore a grey hoodie that was two sizes too big for her, black baggy sweat pants, and red and white running shoes with untied laces. She was breathing heavily.

"Alright" she said "whose bus splashed me with water?"

"I mean, I wasn't even driving it, but I didn't see you." Sunny spoke up.

"Alright, and who was the idiot who was driving that motorcycle that ignored my plea for help."

"Um, I must've not seen you." Olga replied.

"Okay, and lastly, who almost ran over me in their limousine?"

"So that's why Jenkins honked the horn." Regina said.

At this, the girl starts breathing even more heavily. "AHHHHHHHHHHHHHH" She yells and grabs Rival's guitar. Just as she's about to strike Sunny with the guitar, Chef steps in and grabs it from her.

"And you must be Phoebe." He said in the most menacing way possible.

"No!" She exclaims "Phoebe is weak. I AM LIBBY!"

She breaks away from Chef and the two have a standoff. She goes in for a punch, but before it lands, Hayley generates a brick wall in front of her and she ends up punches that.

"OW" Libby screams. Hayley makes 3 more brick walls to surround her.

"If you play nice, I'll release you." Hayley says.

"Oh, alright, just don't do that again. OUCH!"

Just then, Margaret, Elizabeth, and Choeri wake up.

"Alright now that that's over, I guess I should explain a few things." Chef said. "First, this is my co-host for the season, Hayley. She'll be handling all of the challenges this season."

"Hi!" Hayley greets everyone from her place on the wall.

"What happened to Chris?" Olga asked.

Just then, Chris appears on a screen. "I'm dill here!" he said.

"Chris is sick so he'll be joining us from his bedroom." Hayley spoke up.

"The confessional, as some of you have already found, will be in the bathroom on every floor."

"What about our food?" Liz asked.

Hayley responds by generating a pizza in front of her.

"Is it edible?"

"Oh yes." Hayley responds. She then makes it disappear into thin air before Liz can take a bite out of it.

"Alright, everyone follow me to the elevator for your first challenge." Chef commands everyone. They do as he says. Just as the elevator starts going up Chris appears on another screen.

"Alright, your first challenge is a doozy." Chris said. Hayley interrupts him by saying "In this environment, there will be many eggs, but your challenge is to find one of two eggs which are colored blue or red."

"Hey, I was gonna say that." Chris complained. Hayley responds by closing his screen.

"Alright, sounds simple enough." Olga said.

"Yah, then you're supposed to meet me inside the volcano." Chef chimed in.

"Wait, what?" Andrew said.

Just then the door to the elevator opens up. The contestants gets out and most of them admire what looks to be a lush, tropical jungle.

"WOAH!" Cheori said.

"Are you sure we're in the same place?" Deon questioned.

Just then, a massive t-rex steps into the frame. It lets out a loud "GWAAAAAAAAAAAARRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR" Everyone disperses as the screen fades to black and the credits roll.

Alright that's it for now everyone. Going into the next episode, I've got a few questions for you, and you can answer them either here in the reviews or by DM'ing me.

1. What did you think of this chapter? Is there anything I need improve upon?

2. How have I handled your characters so far? I know some were there more than others, but were they in character for the most part, and how could I improve writing them?

do you like the most/ who stood out to you the most so far?

4. How do you think your character(s) will handle the first challenge?

5. Any predictions for what the teams will be, or at least who you think your characters will be on the same team with?

6. Do you guys have any ideas for themes/challenges that I could use? I've already got most of them in my head and written down, but there's still those last few that I'm trying to nailed down.
