Just like in chapter 8, there is rape. Please be warned, and do not stop reading because of it.
If you really don't want to see it, then be on the lookout for a row of X's. There will be one before the incident, and another shortly after, so once you see one, skip to the other row to continue reading the non-inappropriate stuff if that's what you so desire.
And now, the continuation of Total Drama Domination…
"THAT'S IT! I am DONE associating myself with you!" yelled Josee. She stormed off, while Jacques glared at her.
"Wow-how-how!" said Chris. "So far, six out of ten Zebras have moved on to round two! Let's see if Ernesto can keep the momentum going!"
The star soccer player did a couple practice hops before the gun was shot. Ernesto cleared the stage with 10.4 seconds. The Zebras cheered.
"And Ernesto sets a new record!" said Don. "Now it's Mary's turn!"
CONFESSIONAL: I wonder if Mary still has a little lamb.
"The good thing about not having your team go first is you get to learn from lesser intelligent mortals' mistakes. *coughs* Ellody. *coughs* Too much time calculating," said Mary.
*STATIC*
Chris fired the gun, and Mary made it to the Jump Hang, but her foot got tangled in the rope net when she tried to make her way up, and she ended up hanging down, with her hair touching the water, eliminating her.
"Guess the lack of calculations wasn't such a good idea!" said Chris. Mary sighed as she made her way back to her team, with Ellody smirking at her as she did.
"Bridgette, you're up!" said Don.
"Go babe! Build that bridge to the next stage!" said Geoff. Bridgette chuckled at her boyfriend's joke as she took her place on the starting line. Chris fired the gun, and Bridgette beat the course with 5.4 seconds to go. The Zebras cheered.
"Looks like she built that bridge alright!" said Chris.
"Hey, don't steal my joke, bro!" said Geoff.
Chris rolled his eyes. "Whatever." He points at the camera. "He writes this stuff!"
But you never showed any objections to saying it, remember?
Chris, remembering the logic of this show, stopped. "OK OK, moving on! Tammy, you're up!"
The viking cosplayer stood at the starting line. When Chris fired the gun, she remained standing.
"Victorious Instantaneous!" the girl cried. Nothing happened.
"Let's go, Tammy! Time's-a-wastin'!" called Don.
Left with no choice, Tammy tried to clear the Quintuple Step, only to overshoot the first board and fall into the water.
"Ha ha ha!" said Sugar.
"You're next, Sugar!" said Chris.
"Awesome! Time to show that bitch how it's done!" The so-called pageant queen stood before the Quintuple Step. Chris fired the gun, and Sugar fell into the water after being unable to stick a landing on the third board.
"Well, you showed her how to miss the third board…" said Don. "Trent, it's your turn!"
The guitarist took his position. Chris fired the gun, and although he had to clear the Warped Wall in two tries, he still cleared the first stage with 0.9 seconds to go. The Zebras cheered.
"And Trent moves on with .9 seconds left," said Chris, adding extra emphasis on the nine. Trent looked unamused.
"Brody, you're up!" said Don.
Brody took his spot on the starting line. Chris fired the gun, and Brody managed a solid effort, finishing with 3.2 seconds to spare. The Zebras cheered.
"And Brody moves on to round two!" said Chris. "Now it's Stephanie's turn to run the course!"
The female dater stood at the starting line. Chris fired the gun, and she finished with 2.9 seconds to spare. The Zebras cheered.
"Beardo, you're up!" said Don.
The human noisemaker stood at the starting line. Chris fired the gun, and Beardo made it to the Rolling Log before falling off halfway through.
"Beardo, the second stage he won't see 'er, doe!" joked Chris. Don facepalmed.
"Jo, you're up!" said Chris.
"Finally! Allow me to demonstrate how the pros do it!" said Jo. Chris fired the gun, and she beat the stage with 7.2 seconds to spare. Jo looked at the clock in shock. "Are you—he beat me?!" she cried out in protest.
"Yes Jo, Brick beat you by a tenth of a second!" said Don, enjoying every word of his sentence.
Brick smirked as Jo climbed down the finish platform. "This isn't over," she seethed. Brick's face didn't change. Ernesto was dismayed.
CONFESSIONAL: Does Brick jack off in his spare time? Because bricks are bonded by cement…
"Jo needs to let her competitive rivalries go. This is just a game. Nothing different than one I've played in," said Ernesto.
*STATIC*
"Chad, you're up!" said Chris.
Chad took his spot, and Chris fired the gun. Chad made it all the way to the Rope Climb, but he stuck his landing too low, and his feet skirted the water, eliminating him. [1]
"I know drugs aren't your thing, but there's no harm in getting a little, uh...high," said Don. He chuckled. Chad glared at him before dropping into the water below him.
"Alright Geoff, it's your turn!" said Chris.
"Don't worry bro n' babe, I'll make it across, and together, we'll be the three amigos!" said Geoff. His friend and girlfriend smiled as the party guy walked to the starting line. Chris fired the gun, and Geoff proceeded to faceplant the ramp, bouncing him backwards into the water. [2] Brody and Bridgette winced.
"Oh ho, man! That was awesome!" said Don. "Now it's Sam's turn!"
Sam stood at the starting line. Chris fired the gun, and Sam slammed into the third board, and he slid into the water.
"Can't spell 'slam' without Sam!" said Chris. "Now it's Jen's turn!"
Jen groaned as she walked. "I don't wanna get my expensive designer clothes wet!"
Tom, who didn't want Jen to experience the same misfortune he had with his clothes, got a crazy idea. "Jen! Strip down, then!"
Jen, not comfortable with that idea, but not wanting to get her clothes wet, obliged after some hesitation.
"Uh oh. Mike?" Cameron started to ask. But it was too late. The MPD boy gasped, and Vert took control.
XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX
"Well well, another day, another fucking," said Vert.
The cast went wide-eyed. "Oh no, not again," said Don. Chris fired his gun.
By now, Jen was naked. "RUN, JEN!" cried Tom as Vert undressed himself.
Jen didn't hesitate. Sadly, her run didn't last long, as she failed to stick a landing on the ramp. By the time she made it out, she was confronted by a now likewise naked Vert.
"Don't be so down, sweetheart. I know what'll cheer you up." The staff and campers alike looked away as sounds of a female's screams and splats filled the air.
Zoey was too horrified to look or say anything. She nudged Cameron.
Cameron got the message. "MIIIIIIIIIKE!" he screamed with his eyes closed.
Mike gasped, and he returned to normal. He saw Jen covered in white, glaring at him. "Holy shit," he said in a panic.
"Ugh, can I PLEASE take a shower?! Like, a LONG one?!" demanded Jen. She was holding back tears.
Chris sighed. "Normally, I'd say no, but given the SEVERE incident that just took place, yes Jen! You may use the communal showers!"
Jen took off running. Tom glared down Mike. "You know, you should be lucky I'm gay [3]; if Jen was my girlfriend, I'd fucking murder you! I'm stronger than I look!" He tried flexing to prove his point, only for a muscle to hang below his arm. "Well, you get the idea."
XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX
"Dwayne, it's your turn," said Don as everyone regained their focus.
The father took his spot on the starting line. Chris fired the gun. Dwayne actually managed to clear the stage with 2.9 seconds to go. The Zebras cheered, while Junior looked amazed.
"And Dwayne moves on to round two!" said Chris. "Now it's Rodney's turn!"
Rodney stood at the starting line. Chris fired the gun, and Rodney beat the stage with 3.6 seconds to go. The Zebras cheered again.
"And Rodney moves on to round two!" said Don. "Now it's Emma's turn!"
Emma stood at the starting line. Chris fired the gun, and Emma made it to the Big Boulder, but she made the jump too early, causing only her arms to make the platform, and she slid off, unable to pull herself up.
"I wonder if her sister can do any better!" said Chris.
"Please. She won't," said Emma.
The younger sister narrowed her eyes at Emma as she walked to the starting line. Chris fired the gun, and Kitty managed to beat the stage with 2.6 seconds to go. The Zebras cheered.
"Contrary to her sister's belief, Kitty moves on to stage two!" said Don.
"Jealous Emma?" A smirking Kitty asked her shocked sister.
"What, me? Jealous? Noooooo," she denied. Her eyes darted while she gripped an elbow.
"Now let's see if Taylor has what it takes to move on to stage two!" said Chris.
"This should be a piece of cake," said Taylor. "If my mom can beat this stage, then so should I."
Chris fired the gun, but Taylor slipped off the second board of the Quintuple Step, and she fell in the water.
"Huh. Maybe she spends time exercising instead of bragging and being a bitch!" said Don.
Taylor ran towards Don in a fit of rage.
"TAYLOR, IF YOU LAY HANDS ON HIM, I WILL GROUND YOU FOR A MONTH!" screamed Kelly. A shocked Taylor had no choice but to oblige.
"Ha ha. Now let's see if Chet can do any better!" said Chris.
Chet stood at the starting line. Chris fired the gun, and Chet did a barrel roll onto the ramp. Some people looked impressed. Unfortunately, Chet was unable to carry the momentum over to the Rolling Log, and he fell off after two turns.
"Aw, shame. Thought he would be a second JD," said Don. "Next is Scarlett!"
CONFESSIONAL: They told me to Mufasa, so I told them, "I'll give you a Scar!"
"Ellody and Mary have both failed; Ellody by calculating a lot, and Mary by not calculating at all, so I'm gonna meet in the middle and calculate a little."
*STATIC*
Chris fired the gun, and Scarlett made it to the Warped Wall. She failed to pull herself up, so with 25 seconds to go, she got an idea. She stepped off the course to run past the obstacle. Unfortunately, Chef blew the whistle. "Out of bounds!" he cried.
"So much for a 'genius' idea, no?" said Chris. Scarlett glared at him.
"Next up: Shawn!" said Don.
Shawn beat the course with 4.6 seconds to go. "That should be enough to cover a zombie apocalypse."
"I feel like you've said this before, Shawn," said Chris. Shawn simply shrugged.
"Alejandro! You're next!" said Don.
The Spaniard managed to beat the stage with 6.4 seconds to go.
"And Alejandro moves on to round two!" said Chris. "Now it's Leonard's turn!"
The wizard cosplayer stood at the starting line. Chris fired the gun. Leonard made it to the Rolling Log when it stalled after two turns.
"Resumious Rollus!" cried Leonard. The log didn't move, even when he started kicking his legs around. He had no choice but to jump down.
"Next is Lorenzo!" said Don.
The stepbrother of Italian descent [4] stood at the starting line. Chris fired the gun, and Lorenzo made it ⅗ through the Rolling Log when the log slowed down. He spread his legs out in an attempt to speed it back up, only for him to dip his feet in the water, eliminating him.
"Good try, but nope!" said Don. "Next is Devin!"
Devin stood at the starting line. Chris fired the gun, and Devin beat the stage with 2 seconds to spare.
"Next is Lightning!" said Chris.
"Oh yeah! Lightnin's comin' for the end zone!" cried the football player. Chris fires the gun, and Lightning made it to the Rolling Log. Unfortunately, like with Harold, the log started to drag Lightning on his own, and Lightning fell off halfway through.
"And Lightning gets the sack!" said Don. Lightning glared him down. "Next up: Dakota!"
"Hey hey, Dakota fans! Ready for a kick-ass performance?" Dakota blew a kiss to the camera.
Chris fired the gun, and Dakota beat the stage with one second to spare. The Zebras cheered.
"And Dakota moves on to the next stage!" said Chris. Dakota blew kisses, then smirked at Heather, who sneered.
"Next up: Tyler!" said Don.
"Extreme! I'm gonna rip my pants and then I'm gonna bin them!" Most of his team (and some of the other) facepalmed.
Chris fired the gun, and Tyler started to take off his track suit, revealing a white shirt and red shorts underneath. Unfortunately, his track suit got tangled around his ankles [5].
"Time's a wastin', Tyler!" Chris called after Tyler struggled for 5 seconds.
Eventually, Tyler gave up, and he tried to beat the Quintuple Step in his current state. Naturally, he was unable to stick a landing on the first board, and he fell into the water. Jo and Josee buried their heads in their hands.
"Wooooow," was all Don could say. "Let's see if Spud can do any better!"
The big rocker stood at the starting line. Chris fired the gun, and Spud fell in front of the Rolling Log after two turns.
"He should really cut down on those potatoes," said Chris.
"Why do you think his name is Spud?" asked Don.
"Because he's fat?" guessed Chris. Then the cruel reality that is realizing a shitty joke hit him, and he facepalmed.
"Ha ha. Let's see Junior run this course now!" said Don.
The youngest camper stood at the starting line. Chris fired the gun, and Junior beat the stage with 3.4 seconds to go. The Zebras cheered.
"And Junior moves on to stage two!" said Chris. "Last up...Scott!"
The dirt farmer stood at the starting line. Chris fired the gun, and he beat the stage with 1.4 seconds. The Zebras cheered.
"Scott moves on to round 2!" said Don. "OK everyone, come with us for the second stage!"
FURTHER IN THE WOODS
The sun was now setting.
"Alright, so let's do a quick recap: there are 13 Rhinoceri and 21 Zebras left. Rhinoceri, you're in trouble at this point. But hey, anything could happen," said Chris.
"These next obstacles are more difficult than the first stage's obstacles," said Don. "Let's run through them, shall we?"
A long chain appeared above a platform preceding a large pool of water. "First is the chain reaction..."
A rock climbing wall appeared. "...followed by the Rock Climb…"
Three glass panels at various levels on each side appeared. "...the Spider Walk…"
A balance beam with five giant mallets swinging back and forth appeared. "...the Hammer Dodge…"
A conveyor belt moving towards the start of the obstacle appeared. "...the Conveyor Belt…"
Three black and yellow striped walls of increasingly heavier weight appeared. "...and finally, the Wall Lift!"
The camera showed the hosts. "You will have 80 seconds to clear this stage," said Chris. "Now, let's start with Sammy!"
The moleless twin gripped the chain. Chris fired the gun, and Sammy swung to the platform at the end of the Chain Reaction. She climbed the Rock Climb, and then she spread her legs into position. She went up the first panel, continued forward on the second, but on the third, she slipped when she tried to move down, and she fell forward, bouncing off the finishing platform and landing back first in the water.
"I guess it's a Shamey," said Don. Sammy glared at him. "Anyways, next is Zoey!"
The redhead re-entered her commando phase as she took her position on the starting line. Chris fired the gun, and Zoey ripped through the first two obstacles before falling into the water after not being able to focus on sticking a landing on the Spider Walk's first panel.
"Too much commando-ing, not enough Spider Walk-ing," remarked Chris. Zoey sighed as she left the course.
"Now it's Ryan's turn!" said Don.
The weight lifter stood at the starting line. Chris fired the gun, and Ryan, unlike the two ladies before him, managed to clear the Spider Walk. Unfortunately, Ryan was hammered in the face by the fourth hammer in the Hammer Dodge, and he went flying off the beam. Stephanie gasped.
"Ho ho, man! That was awesome!" said Chris. "Dave, you're up!"
The boy stood at the starting line.
"Wait wait, Chris? Can I fire this time?" Keith piped up.
"Uhh...no. Nobody gets to steal a job like that from me. Especially an intern like you," spat Chris.
"Good, because I have a gun of my own!" Keith fired his handgun at Dave's left thigh, causing him to fall into the water unconscious. Everyone gasped, with some screams being heard.
"MEDIC!" cried Don.
"On it, boy-eeeee!" said Jordan, now wearing a white swimsuit with the red cross symbol on it. He pulled Dave out of the water and started doing respiration.
Dave suddenly came back to life. "AH! Ewwww, I don't think I can handle CPR again...what happened?" he asked, now back on his feet.
"Someone shot you!" Chris yelled while pointing at Keith.
"Can you blame me? He stole my girlfriend!"
That was more than Sky could take. "I AM NOT YOUR GIRLFRIEND! I BROKE UP WITH YOU! DAVE IS MY BOYFRIEND!" She ran to Dave and put her hands on his shoulders. "And he always will be," she smiled sweetly. The two started to lean in for their first kiss, until…
"OK, we've achieved happily ever after!" said Don sarcastically. "Keith will be getting his punishment after this challenge. Crimson, you're up!"
The emo goth girl stood at the starting line. "Let's get this shit on the road," she said flatly.
Chris fired the gun, and Crimson made it to the Hammer Dodge and very nearly beat it, until the final hammer hit her asscheeks, causing her to lose her balance and fall butt first into the water. "Ow. My butt," she said blankly.
"Glad it wasn't me this time," said Emma. Chris proceeded to her slap her in the ass. "OW! What the heck, Chris?!"
"Just for good measure," he shrugged. "Ezekiel, you're up!"
The prairie boy stood at the starting line. Chris fired the gun, and Ezekiel cleared the first three obstacles. When he got to the Hammer Dodge, he stood there. Then, he ran back, turned around, and tried to do a running jump through the obstacle. He ended up landing crotch first on the balance beam, past the hammers.
The camera briefly showed Cody and Sierra wincing with their mouths in an "ooh" shape.
Ezekiel tried to run through the Conveyor Belt, only to fall on his face ⅔ of the way through. He tried again, and this time, he made it through. He lifted all three walls, and he hit the Don box just as the timer ran out. The Rhinoceri cheered as the camera showed the digital clock, revealing he still had one hundredth of a second left. [6]
"And Ezekiel manages to move on to stage three!" said Don. Ezekiel high-fives his teammates.
"Let's see Sky run this course now!" said Chris.
Sky took her place on the starting line. Chris fired the gun, and Sky made it all the way to the Wall Lift when suddenly, she couldn't lift the wall in front of her.
"Ugh! What the?" asked Sky.
"Keeeeeith," said Chris, his voice rising. This startled Keith, who dropped a controller. Chris picked it up and looked at the screen.

(X) BRICKS
"YOU SHITTIN' ME, BRO?!" yelled Chris. "I was just gonna have you clean out the septic tank and re-filter it, but now you're gonna drain all the water used in this challenge!" Keith sighed.
"Jasmine, you're up!" said Don.
The Aussie stood at the starting line. Chris fired the gun, and Jasmine made it to the Spider Walk, but her height proved to be a disadvantage, as her legs were too long to comfortably position herself, and she ended up sliding into the water.
"Looks like your hopes of moving on are long gone now, Jas saying! Ha ha ha ha!" Chris laughed as Don facepalmed. "Next is Veronica!" he said.
Veronica stood at the starting line. Chris fired the gun, and Veronica was hit by the second hammer in the Hammer Dodge.
Chris winced. "Ooh, right in the face!" he said.
"Take my hand, chica!" Ernesto ran over and held out his hand for Veronica to take. The lovestruck girl took his hand and pulled herself out.
"What the—you can't inter-team date!" said Jo.
"Hello?! I said that in the first season!" agreed Heather.
"Hey, leave my man alone!" shouted Veronica, which took both mean girls by surprise.
"You're quite the feisty one, huh?" said Ernesto. "I like that." The started to lean in—
Chris fired his gun for Kelly to run the course, stopping the couple from kissing.
Kelly herself managed to beat the second stage, finishing with 3.2 seconds left. The Zebras cheered, while Taylor gasped, then gritted her teeth.
"And Kelly sets a new time to beat!" said Don. "Ennui, you're up next!"
The male goth stood at the starting line. Chris fired the gun, and Ennui chose to lie down on the balance beam and bring himself across. Unfortunately, that proved to be too time consuming, and time ran out just as he started to lift the third wall.
"No third stage for Ennui!" said Chris.
"That was a good strategy," said Crimson.
"I feel disappointed, Crimson," said Ennui.
"Oh, stop complaining. You made it farther than me," said Crimson.
"Amy! You're up!" said Don.
The first born cheerleader stood at the starting line. Chris fired the gun, and she managed to beat the stage with 2.4 seconds to go. The Rhinoceri cheered.
"And Amy moves on to stage three!" said Chris. "Sierra, you're the last one!"
Sierra stood at the starting line. Chris fired the gun, and Sierra cleared the stage with 0.8 seconds to go. The Rhinoceri cheered.
"And Sierra moves on to stage three! That means four Rhinoceri are competing in stage three!" said Don.
"Zebras, 21 of you are still here. That's nearly half of you," said Chris. "Courtney, you're up first!"
The CIT stood at the starting line. Chris fired the gun, and Courtney ended up slipping on the Spider Walk's second panel, and she fell into the water below.
"Looks like there's something else she needs training in," said Don. Courtney glared at the laughing host.
"Next up: Brick!" said Chris.
Brick stood at the starting line. Chris fired the gun, and Brick got hammered by the first hammer, causing him to fall in the water. Suddenly, the water began to turn red.
"MEDIC!" ordered Don.
Jordan, still wearing the same swim trunks, jumped into the water and pulled the dazed Brick out, revealing he had a nosebleed.
"Lay him down! Stuff a tissue in there!" ordered Chris. Jordan obliged. Jo watched this disapprovingly.
"Kitty, you're up!" said Don.
Kitty stood at the starting line, and Chris fired the gun. Kitty made it to the Spider Walk, but she slipped as she started to approach the second panel.
"Bad kitty! Bad!" said Chris.
"You're such a jerk," said Kitty as she got out.
"Even death threats don't shake me dude," he said. "Stephanie, you're up!"
Stephanie stood at the starting line. Chris shot his gun, and Stephanie accidentally positioned herself too high when moving up the first panel, and she lost her balance, falling into the water.
"Yet another failure from this team!" said Don. "Let's see if Alejandro can do any better!"
Alejandro stood at the starting line. Chris fired the gun. Alejandro beat the stage with 3.1 seconds to go. The Zebras cheered.
"And Alejandro makes it to the third stage!" said Chris. "Rodney! Your turn!"
Rodney stood at the starting line. Chris fired the gun, and Rodney touched down on the mat, then tried to climb the Rock Climb. Unfortunately, the size of his feet hindered him from climbing up, and he fell back onto the mat, eliminating him.
"That's...disappointing. Haven't we already told you to lay off the steroids?" said Don. Rodney seethed.
"Brody, you're up!" said Chris.
Brody stood at the starting line. Chris fired the gun, and Brody made it to the Conveyor Belt, only to trip and fall on his face. On top of that, his body swung off the belt, and he landed in the water.
"How does he mess up there?!" demanded MacArthur.
"You're questioning the performance of your own boyfriend?" said Emma.
"Shit, I mean, uhhhh…" MacArthur stammered. She quickly pointed at the camera. "Blame him! He forgot I was in a relationship with him!"
Sure I did.
"OK Jo! You're up!" said Don.
"About damn time!" exclaimed Jo. She stood at the starting line, and Chris fired the gun. Unfortunately, Jo fucked up her performance by leaning too far forward when swinging on the Chain Reaction, and when she landed on the mat, her feet dipped into the water.
"Our worst performance in this stage so far!" Chris announced with lots of pride. Without hesitating, Jo grabbed onto the rope and swung back to the starting line. She charged at a now worried Chris, who weakly said, "uh...oh." Chris was tackled in the stomach. As Jo stomped away from him, he stood up. "Sheesh, can't handle the honest truth. Anyways, Shawn! Your turn!"
The zombie hater stood at the starting line. Chris fired the gun, and Shawn made it to the Wall Lift, but unfortunately, he ran out of time as he started to lift the second wall.
"No third stage for Shawn! Alejandro continues to be the only Zebra moving on to the third stage! Maybe things are looking up for the Rhinoceri!" said Don. "Let's see if Junior can do any better!"
Junior stood at the starting line. "This course is not designed for me," he said.
"Too bad! You signed up for a big boy's competition!" Chris said uncaringly. He then fired his gun. Junior sighed, went on with his attempt, and was unable to keep a landing on the Spider Walk.
"Huh, guess he was right," said Chris, who was leaning forwards and squinting his eyes. "Oh well, he's out now! Ernesto, your turn!"
Ernesto stood at the starting line and did a couple practice hops. Chris fired the gun, and when Ernesto landed on the mat, he lost his balance, and he fell on his butt. He quickly overcame this mistake, and he continued on with his attempt. He finished with 0.4 seconds to spare. The Zebras cheered.
"And we have our second Zebra moving on to the third stage!" said Don. "Devin! You're up!"
"BOOOOOOOOOO!" Carrie immediately booed her ex. Devin, angered, said, "fire the gun, Chris. I'm ready."
"HEY! I decide when to fire the damn gun!" he yelled. Then he fired the gun. Devin stuck a landing on the Spider Walk, but found himself unable to move. After a few more seconds, he slipped off the panels entirely. A suspicious eyed a chuckling Carrie, who had her hands over her lips.
"And Devin doesn't get to see the third stage!" Don said to a disappointed Devin. "Trent, buddy! You're next!"
Trent stood at the starting line. Chris fired the gun, and Trent landed butt first on the mat. He ended up timing out just as he was getting to the Wall Lift after taking too much time trying to cross the Spider Walk.
"Hmmm...spiders have eight legs…" Chris tried to egg on Trent. The boy glared at him and raised a fist with clenched teeth. "Right right, OK! Moving on! Jacques, you're up!"
"I look forward to winning this challenge without you breathing down my neck," Jacques told Josee, who narrowed her angry eyes at him as he approached the starting line. Chris fired the gun, and Jacques was having a reasonable enough run until he got to the Wall Lift. He struggled lifting each one, and he fell to the ground after lifting the third one. He screamed like a little girl when the third wall landed on his legs.
Chris sighed. "Medic?"
Jordan, still wearing his bathing suit, lifted the wall and moved Jacques' legs away from it.
"Is that how you dropped Josee in the Olympics? Weak upper body strength?" asked Don.
"YES!" Josee immediately piped up offscreen. Don turned to look in her direction. "Speaking of which, it's your turn!"
Josee smirked as she walked to the starting line. Chris fired the gun, and Josee managed to beat the stage with 3.9 seconds to go. The Zebras cheered.
"And Josee sets a new time to beat!" said Chris. Josee grinned evilly at Jacques as she exited the course, causing him to glare.
"Carrie, you're up!" said Don.
Carrie stood at the starting line. Devin sighed. There was no point in cheering her on this time. Chris fired the gun, and Carrie let go of the Chain Reaction too early, which, combined with her leaning back, led to her falling backwards into the water.
"I guess she got too Carried away with one-upping Devin!" said Chris.
"Dude, stop! You're gonna kill our drinking gamers who are taking a drink every time we make a bad joke!" warned Don.
"You really think I care at this point? Should I care at this point?"
Don sighed. "No. I guess not." He got his focus back. "JD, you're up!"
JD stood at the starting line. "Wonder what he's gonna do this time," Chris muttered before firing his gun. JD proceeded to go down the Chain Reaction backwards. He then turned upside down and climbed the Rock Climb that way. He didn't realize how time-consuming that was until he saw there was only 35 seconds left going into the Spider Walk. "Ha ha ha, no." JD immediately cannon-balled into the water.
"Couldn't pull an underdog victory out of your ass, huh? Maybe you should actually cross the stage like a normal person next time," said Chris. JD flipped him off. "Sheesh, it's just a suggestion," Chris said in response. "Dakota, you're up!"
Dakota stood at the starting line. "Hey Dakota fans! Ready for my follow-up performance?" She asked the camera. Chris fired the gun, and Dakota ended up face planting the platform at the end of the Spider Walk before falling into the water.
"I'm sure your fans would love to see that!" said Don. "Bridgette! You're up!"
Bridgette stood at the starting line. Geoff and Brody hollered their support, and Bridgette smiled and waved. So when Chris fired his gun, she was startled. She overcame this though, and despite being kind of slow on the Spider Walk, she made it to the Wall Lift, where she timed out as she started lifting up the second wall.
"No third stage for Bridgette!" said Chris. "Scott! You're up!"
The dirt farmer stood at the starting line. Chris fired his gun, but Scott had gripped the Chain Reaction too low, and he tripped over the mat. His feet dipped into the water. Suddenly, he saw something awfully familiar.
"FANG?!" someone yelled. But it wasn't Scott.
"Oh shit," Keith quickly turned off what he was holding: a hologram that had been displaying Fang.
"You STOLE our hologram projector?!" screamed Chris. "THAT, IS IT! You are now PERMANENTLY sleeping in one of the campers' cabins!" The campers, and then Keith, gasped. "So! What room will it be?" demanded Chris.
"Wait, he gets to sleep in a campers' cabin?" asked Lance.
"I wanna do that too!" said Jordan.
"Yeah!" agreed Lance.
"Boys. Go fig," said Morgan. [7]
"I hear ya, girl! Hey, maybe we're not that different after all!" said Millie. Morgan, for the first time since her introduction, smiled.
"Can y'all please hush?!" yelled Chris. He turned back to Keith. "So what room will it be?" he asked, now irritated.
"Rhinoceri, girls' room three." Eva, Sanders, and especially Sky gasped.
"Oh, fuck me," Chris said while pinching his nose and shaking his head. He regained his composure. "Dwayne, you're the last one!"
The father stood at the starting line. Chris fired the gun, and Dwayne slipped off the Spider Walk as he transitioned down the panels.
"And that's it! The Rhinoceri have taken the lead, with four of them and only three Zebras moving on to the third stage!" said Don.
EVEN FURTHER IN THE WOODS
The sky was now pitch black.
"Now campers, since this round is even more difficult than the last one, there will be no time limit!" said Chris. The campers cheered. "Let's run through the obstacles, shall we?"
A golden rectangular prism was being held by two bars. "First is the Rumbling Dice!"
Two platforms faced each other. "Followed by the Body Prop!"
A series of blue illuminated spheres hung from a flat platform. "The Globe Grasp!"
Three platforms at different levels, all of which contained a very thin platform embedded in the middle appeared. "The Cliff Hanger!"
Finally, two sets of straight paths with a red pipe at the beginning of each one appeared, with a green pipe dividing the two at the turn. "And finally, the Pipe Slider!" [8]
"Kelly, you're up first!" said Don.
The mother stood at the starting line. Chris fired the gun, and Kelly grabbed the Rumbling Dice. She slowly made her way across, eventually moving on to the Body Prop. She looked at the platforms, then in an attempt to get herself position, grabbed the top of one.
Chef blew his whistle. "You can't do that!" he said. Kelly hung her shame. "Ha ha!" Taylor laughed offscreen.
"Sierra, it's your turn!" said Chris.
Sierra stood at the starting line. Chris fired his gun, and Sierra cleared the Rumbling Dice. When she got to the Body Prop, she positioned herself correctly, and she carefully made her way across the obstacle. She had no trouble going through the Globe Grasp, either. She then pinched the small ledges the Cliff Hanger gave her, and she successfully made the transition between the first two platforms (upwards) and the last two (downwards), and she made it to the final obstacle, the Pipe Slider. She pushed and pushed the pipe through the track it was on, eventually reaching the green pipe in about 30 seconds. She sat on the green pipe, stretched her arms, then grabbed onto the second red pipe, and she started pushing that one to the end of its track. She then successfully executed her long jump onto the finishing platform. The Rhinoceri cheered wildly.
"Woah. I never expected one of them to move on to the final stage," said Don, who was genuinely impressed. "Amy! Your turn!"
Amy stood at the starting line. Chris fired the gun, and Amy also made it to the Pipe Slider. Unfortunately, once she grabbed the second red pipe, her upper body strength left her, and she fell to the water below.
"Ooh, close, but nope!" said Chris. "Ezekiel! It's down to you now!"
The homeschooled boy stood at the starting line. Chris fired the gun, and Ezekiel slipped from the Body Prop once he started to move.
"Alright, we have one Rhinoceros moving on to the final stage! Rhinoceri, all you need to stay in the game is for one of you to stay in as well!" said Don. "Alejandro, let's start with you!"
Alejandro stood at the starting line. Chris fired the gun, and Alejandro made it to the Cliff Hanger, where the ledges proved too narrow for his hands, and he fell into the water below.
"Strike one! Ernesto, you're up!" said Chris.
Ernesto stood at the starting line. Chris fired the gun, and Ernesto made it to the end of the Pipe Slider, with the second red pipe already at the end of its track. Unfortunately, he was too far when he tried to stick his landing, and his toes slipped off the platform, causing him to face plant it before falling into the water below.
"Strike two! It's all down to you now, Josee!" said Don.
Josee stood at the starting line. Chris fired the gun, and Josee made it to the Pipe Slider. Unfortunately, rather than make small strides like those before her, she tried to make it across with one push. The end result was the pipe falling off the track, leaving it and Josee suspended above the water. [9]
"And strike three! The Zesty Zebras lose! No need to move on to the final stage now!" said Chris. The Rambunctious Rhinoceri cheered, happy they finally won, while the Zesty Zebras looked downtrodden.
"Zebras, you have ten minutes to report to the campfire!" said Don.
OUTSIDE THE WOODS
The team broke off into their usual festivities during their ten-minute break. One camper decided to take advantage of this time.
"Can I talk to you?" Josee asked Chad.
"Huh? Yeah, sure." The insufferable nerd followed the competitive ice dancer to behind their team's cabin.
"You saw me and Jacques split during the challenge, right?"
"Uh huh."
"Well, I am proposing a villain's alliance, effective immediately. You in or not?"
Chad thought for a second. "Admittedly, I'm not too well-liked already, so I'll join. Who's going?"
"Well, it sounds like they want to vote out Jay for being weak and unprepared. But I think he has an idol of some sort. Remember when he said he took something from the bees in the fear challenge?"
"Yeah, so that should nullify everyone else's votes, leaving just us three. It wouldn't matter who he voted for, since we'd already have a majority as us two."
"I love it! You're gonna be much better than Jacques." Josee smiled happily.
"Attention Zebras! Your time is up! Report to the campfire ceremony!" said Chris over the loudspeaker.
CAMPFIRE
The Zebras sat around the campfire. "Zebras, you couldn't keep your winning streak alive, and now you're back here. Whoever doesn't get a marshmallow has to take the Fireworks of Shame!" said Don. "Without further ado—"
"Hang on!" Jay stood up and presented the Lance idol. Everyone gasped.
"This is the Lance idol," said Chris. "Congrats Jay. Not only do you earn an advantage for your team tomorrow, but you are now immune. That nullifies all but two of your votes, since you voted for yourself!" Everyone looked at each other nervously. "So without further ado, Jay! Come get your marshmallow!" Jay got his marshmallow. "Also safe are Ernesto, Josee, Alejandro, Courtney, Brick, Kitty, Stephanie, Rodney, Brody, Jo, Shawn, Junior, Devin, Trent, Jacques, Carrie, JD, Dakota, Bridgette, Scott, Dwayne, Geoff, Chet, Jen, Lightning, Scarlett, Spud, Sam, Dawn, Beardo, Chad, Taylor, Sugar, Tammy, Tyler, Emma, Leonard, Mary, Beth, Lorenzo, and Heather! That leaves just one person…" The camera panned to the one person whose name hadn't been called, which you should probably already know unless your lazy, or you wanted the suspense…
MacArthur.
"WHAT?! Why ME?!" The police cadet stood in an outrage.
"No time for explanations! You're out!" Chef quickly said as he strapped MacArthur into a firecracker. He lit the fuse, and after three seconds, she went flying.
"Wow! Something fishy sure happened here tonight!" said Don. "Will those with their votes nullified find out who was responsible for MacArthur's blindside? What advantage will they get in the next challenge? What's Devin gonna do about Carrie now? Can we stop letting sexy stuff happen so we won't have to deal with Mike's new personality anymore? Will Chris and I stop coming up with bad jokes?" He then turned angry, and he called out, "and is Keith done with his punishment yet?!" A growl sounded. Don continued. "Tune in next time, right here, on TOTAL!"
"DRAMA!" yelled Chris.
"DOMINATION!" both hosts yell.
[1] In the 4th tournament, a guy did that just as he ran out of time, so it didn't really matter anyway.
[2] In the 9th tournament, a guy did that.
[3] It has been confirmed that Tom is gay, since the guy he's based off of, Tom McGillis, is gay in real life.
[4] It has also been confirmed that Lorenzo comes from Italian descent.
[5] In the 19th tournament, a guy took off his sweatpants, but they got tangled around his ankles, and he couldn't make a good attempt at the first obstacle because of it. That's basically what this is.
[6] A guy in the 4th tournament finished the 1st stage with eight hundredths of a second left, and another in the 8th tournament finished it with literally NOTHING left.
[7] Animaniacs reference, anyone?
[8] Yep, I went with the 9th tournament. I found its obstacles the easiest to write.
[9] A guy in the 4th tournament did that.

...aaaaand that's the chapter! MacArthur got the boot, because the trend of people not having any foreseeable plots getting canned continued. And to be honest, I can never remember her and Brody being in a relationship. Needless to say, she was kind of a hopeless pain in the ass to write about in this fanfic.
I have multiple plots in store for future chapters, which is always exciting.
I said this in chapter 8, and I'll say it again now. Do NOT stop reading because of what happened. It's still Total Drama Domination as long as it's still about a shit ton of people trying to win one million green ones.
As always, read and review on fanfiction dot net, and comment and favorite on DeviantArt!
