Meanwhile, Chris had sent Chef to go take Ella and Jasmine back to Boney Island. Their Challenge was to find the Golden Immunity Idol. If either of them finds it. The team that their on can be safe from voting their members off if either one, Loses. Jasmine had preferred it over the Actual Challenge due for her Claustrophobia. Ella was feeling confident that she can do it since she won for her whole team and felt that she could do it, again.

Elsewhere…

Sammy led Thomas down the tunnel by her hand.

"That's it, sweetie, hold my hand! Come on! You're doing great! See, the cave is getting lighter and wider!" said Sammy. "Thomas, take your thumb out of your mouth. You're a big Boy." Amy said. "Oh sorry! Force of habit!" Thomas said before wiping his thumb and looked behind him. "Hey. Isn't that Topher and Hunter with Elliot?" Thomas said as he sees the Three of them up ahead. "Hey! Boys!" Sammy called out as Hunter and Topher looked behind them to see Sammy, Amy, and Thomas. "Oh. Hey." Hunter said.

"When did you guys get here?" Amy asked.

"We decided to change paths since the other team was going through it and we didn't want them to think, We were following them. So, We decided to change courses and found Elliot without a Shirt and he was freezing so we tried to warm him." Topher explained while Elliot was shivering from the Cold.

"You all have reached the Leap of Faith!" Amy and Sammy looked forward to see that they had reached a ledge. Even with the night-vision goggles, they couldn't see the bottom, as it was obscured by a thick mist.

"Why is it called the Leap of Faith?"

"You just have to have faith and jump down to the bottom of the cavern. It leads to the way out. Or sharks. I honestly can't remember!"

"Well, it's not like we can go back the way we came…" said Sammy. "Thanks for reminding me!" said Chris, pressing a button on his remote.

An explosion sounded, sealing up the cave behind them. Elliot looked like He was about to have another panic attack.

"Was that really necessary?" Sammy asked.

"No, but it was funny!" said Chris. "Good luck!"

The television turned off, forcing Sammy and Thomas to put their goggles back on.

"Wow. It's like a bottomless black hole to nowhere!" said Sammy, looking over the ledge. "You want me to go first?"

"Sammy, no!" Elliot cried, grabbing her friend and hugging her as tightly as possible. "There has to be another way!"

"Elliot! Too tight! Can't breathe!" Sammy wheezed.

"Sorry. I'm just really cold." Elliot let go of his friend, still shuddering.

"Don't worry, Maybe try going back to your team and see if you could try using something that might warm you up" Thomas suggested and Elliot nodded before running back to his team.

The Bears had made it three quarters of the way across the Frost Cavern. They tiptoed slowly so that they wouldn't trigger any booby traps. Beardo was at the front, followed by Sky, then Dave, and Shawn and soon Elliot headed up the rear.

"How are those slugs doing, Beardo?" Sky asked.

"They're doing fine!" Beardo replied.

"Good. If they freeze to death, they'll stop glowing and we won't have any light."

"Not to mention, they are living creatures!"

"That too!"

"Guys, stop!" Shawn called urgently. "Do you hear that?!"

The Bears stopped in their tracks and listened silently. Sure enough, they could hear a beeping sound coming from around them. They looked around frantically for the source, not moving from their position. The beeping got louder and more frequent.

Beep-beep-beep-beep-beep!

"Where's it coming from?!" Dave asked.

"It's coming from below!" Elliot exclaimed.

The Bears looked down into the ice to see a black ball with pegs sticking out of it. "It's a bomb!" Shawn cried.

A blue explosion went up and engulfed the Bears. Once it was all over, the Bears were standing right where they had been and were relatively unharmed. Except for the fact that they had been stripped down to their birthday suits and were now shivering violently, their bare skin against sub-zero temperatures. Their clothes had somehow been blasted off of their bodies and scattered around the cave, including their shoes, socks, and underwear.

The butt-naked Bears scattered across the cave with different goals in mind. Dave and Shawn were most concerned with warming back up, Sky was concerned with covering up, and Beardo's main priority was making sure that the glow slugs were safe. During the frenzy, nobody saw the wall open up to reveal Hunter and Topher, who dropped their jaws in shock.


Confessional: Topher

"You don't see that every day!"

Confessional: Hunter

"Now, I will see that in my Nightmares, tonight."

End Confessional

Topher and Hunter puked at the scene before them. Dave and Sky ran over to a parka and picked it up at the same time. They looked at each other, gasped, and grinned nervously, their faces turning red. Sky covered her chest and Dave covered his crotch. Elliot puts his hands against his crotch and screamed like a Little Girl.


Confessional: Elliot

"Are you KIDDING ME!?"

End Confessional


After seeing that his clothes were disintegrated, The British Athlete tried to use a parka to get covered up, threw caution to the wind, and sprinted the rest of the way out of the cave, desperate to get them out of the cold. Once He was out of the Frost Cavern.

Shawn, Sky, and Dave, and Gerald exited the cave a minute later. Shawn was the only one fully dressed. Dave and Sky were wearing parkas and had the rest of their clothes in their arms.

"Man! A bomb that blows your clothes off you!" Shawn exclaimed, both shocked and impressed. "What'll they think of next?"

"At least I won't have to wear the Prison Uniform anymore. I never washed those clothes anyway." Gerald said as he had no problem with his Nude situation.

"Hopefully, A cure to frostbite and hypothermia!" Dave cried, shivering. "That had better not be in the episode, or I am going kick Chris's butt!" Sky proclaimed, angrily.

"So cold…!" Dave shivered.

"I agree." Elliot replied to Sky. "Losing my shirt was one thing but this is just Humiliating..." Elliot said as He tried using a Rock to cover himself but Sky was rather embarrassed and uncomfortable.


Confessional: Sky

"First the shirt and now this...Worst. Day. Ever."

-

"I'm REALLY glad that Ella isn't here to see this."

End Confessional


Elsewhere…

"So hot…!" Sammy moaned. She, Amy, and Thomas were sweating like pigs. And Thomas was having trouble walking through the volcano path. The ground seemed to get less and less firm as they waltzed on. But when Amy's feet started heating up and she caught the scent of burnt rubber, she realized the truth.

"My shoes are melting!" Amy cried.

"Keep going, Jazz!" Sammy encouraged. "I'm sure we're almost out of this tunnel!"

The Twins then came across a stone sign that said "You are now five percent of the way through this tunnel."

"Maybe we should turn back!" Sammy suggested.

"As If, we're gonna die!" Amy moaned.

The wall opened up to reveal Scarlett, Johnny, and Rodney.

"Amy! Thomas! Sammy! In here!" Scarlett cried.

"What?! Where'd you guys come from?!" Thomas cried.

"From Narnia!" said Johnny sarcastically. "Now get in! The humidity's bad for my hair!" Johnny's hair then became one Large Afro. "Oh come on!"

"This elevator can take us directly to the finish line!" said Scarlett.


Confessional: Thomas

"I haven't used an elevator since I was ten! I prefer Escalators."

End Confessional


The tall girl backed away from the elevator. Sammy, on the other hand, hopped off of Thomas' back and ran to the elevator.

"Come on, Tom! It's a way out!" said Sammy. His shoes were melting and He felt like the rest of his was as well.

"It's a way out Thomas." Amy said, shrilly. "It's a way out…" She reluctantly walked into the elevator. Sammy grabbed her hand as the doors closed and Thomas calmed down slightly.

Meanwhile, with the Bears…

The Bears were fully dressed and walking down the tunnel. Beardo still led the way, as half of the glow slugs had survived the cave, though it was harder to see than before.

"Okay!" said Sky importantly. "Since we are all grown-ups, I think we can agree, never to mention that again!"

"Agreed!" said Dave.

"Sure!" said Shawn.

"As long we all agree to not say ANY of this to Ella, I'm happy!" Elliot said.

The Bears then came into another cavern. This one was filled to the brim with pink crystals coming out of the walls and ceiling. The Tigers were in awe.

"Wow! So pretty!" Ella cried, delighted.

"Shiiiiiiiiiiiiiiny!" Shawn oohed.

"Hey, guys!" said Chris, via TV. "Welcome to the Gem Cave! This crystal cavern is home to a dragon!"

"A dragon?!" Shawn and Elliot cried, sounding terrified.

"A dragon?" Dave, Sky, and Gerald repeated skeptically.

"Not just any dragon!" said Chris. "A red dragon!"

Nobody said anything for a second. "…Okay?" said Sky, confused.

"Red dragons are notoriously greedy and possessive!"

"And fictional!" Dave pointed out. Chris ignored him.

"Just walk through this cave without stealing a gem, and you'll be golden! Take anything, and not even Beardo will be able to serenade the vicious monster!"

"Fine, whatever!" said Dave impatiently. "Let's just get-!"

The roar of a T-Rex bellowed through the cave.

"And you failed!" said Chris, amused. "Wow! That was fast!"

The wall caved in, revealing a red lizard the size of a spinosaurus. It had horns, wings, four legs, a long neck, a forked tongue, and five toes on each foot. "Run!" Sky yelled. The Tigers ran as fast as they could out of the ruby ravine. The dragon pursued them. The cave was cramped and it was barely able to keep up.

The Tigers ran into the next tunnel and came across a pond filled with greenish water. They stopped at the edge.

"We gotta swim?" said Dave. "Is it safe? Cave water is clean, right?"

ROOOOOOOOOOAR!

"I'm sure it's safer than a dragon's fire breath!" said Sky. Agreeing, the Tigers jumped into the water and swam away.

SPLASH!

Once the dragon reached the edge of the water, it stopped cold. Its nostrils flared. It then turned around and retreated, as though deciding it wasn't worth it.

"He's not following us? Weird!" Sky exclaimed.

"Well, you know how dragons hate losing their jewelry in the pool!" Dave joked, smiling. Sky chuckled.

"I like how funny you are." Sky replied, smiling while Gerald grunted. Suddenly, a foul scent caught Dave's nose.

"Hey, not to kill the mood, but did you fart?" he asked.

"No!" Sky shouted, mildly offended. "But… it does stink in here, doesn't it?" she admitted.

"We should keep moving." said Shawn.

"Look! A stream!" Elloit cried, pointing to a stream coming down from above. "It must be coming from the surface! We can follow it out!"

The Bears climbed up the stream. It took a while as it just kept getting muddier and stinkier as they climbed. But they saw daylight coming from the top and pressed on. Sensing the daylight, the surviving glow slugs oozed off of Elliot and retreated back to the darkness. Eventually, they reached the top.

"We made it, my friends!" Ella exclaimed.

The hole at the top was only big enough for one person to go at a time. Shawn, being in front, went first. When he popped his head out, he saw that he was in the confession can.

Ten seconds later, the Bears were seen running out of the outhouse and screaming in horror. Their clothes were all tainted with sludge. They stopped a few yards away and started hyperventilating.

"THE TOILET?!" Sky cried. "WE CAME OUT THE TOILET?!"

"Come on! First, My clothes and now the smell!? I HATE YOU CHRIS!" Elliot angrily shouts."That means the stinky water and mud in the cave was actually…" Shawn started, but couldn't finish. Sky, Shawn, and Ella gagged in disgust.

"Dave? Are you okay?" Sky asked.

Okay was the last thing Dave was. He looked shocked and traumatized beyond recognition. He stood still for a brief second before falling on his face and passing out. In his unconscious state, he twitched like a fly that had just been swatted.

Meanwhile…

Chris was flipping through the channels rapidly, trying to find what had happened to the teams. But none of the hundreds of cameras had turned up the campers. It was as though they vanished into thin air.

"Yup. I've lost the kids." said Chris, nervously. He turned to Chef. "At least, Jasmine and Ella have finished their challenge and will be arriving back on the Island. Get the Interns and search for the Kids."

As Chef turned around to perform these actions, he caught sight of the sludge-stained Tigers approaching.

"Argh!" he cried. "What is that stench?!"

"We came out through the-" Shawn started, but was interrupted by Dave. The germaphobe waved his arms around wildly and babbled incoherently.

"NEVER CLEAN!" he yelled.

"Did we win?" Ella asked.

"NO!" said Chris angrily. "That's not the right exit!"

"Oh, ya don't say?!" Sky yelled.

"I do! The right exit is over there!" said Chris. He pointed to the entrance to a cave, where a finish line decorated with red and yellow flags stood.

"FREEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEDOOOOOOOOOOOOOM!" Thomas screamed running out of said cave and snapping the finish line. He was followed shortly by Scarlett, Topher, Hunter, Johnny, Rodney, Amy and Sammy.

"What?! How did you-?!" Chris stuttered. "Never mind. Team Kinosewak wins the challenge!" Dave and Jasmine hardly reacted to Chris's declaration. Everyone on Team Kinosewak cheered.

"Team Maskwak! As the losers of this challenge, I think you know what this means!" The Tigers sighed despairingly. Shawn and Ella shot each other distressed glances. "But you won't actually have to go through with it! Since Jasmine and Ella had done a Separate Challenge, We're declaring this a Reward Challenge!"

The Salmons dropped their jaws while the Tigers cheered, minus Jasmine and Dave.

"No elimination!" Sky cried happily.

Ella sees Elliot as she stared at him. "Uhh, Dear? Are you Aware that you're...Naked?" Ella asked and blushed seeing his body. Elliot angrily screams as he was gonna try and Attack Chris before he was held back by Shawn and Beardo.

"So, what's the reward?" Sammy asked.

"I was just getting to that!" said Chris. "Team Kinosewak will be temporarily vacating the island for an all-you-can-eat dinner at Darwin's Food Safari!"

The Salmons cheered. This was much better than the previous time that they had won dinner, as Chris had set a fifteen-dollar limit on their meals. Now they could eat as much as they wanted and rest inside an actual building with heating and air-conditioning.

"However! I still need everyone to attend the campfire ceremony tonight!" said Chris ominously. For some reason, Some of them got a chill down her spine. "Okay! Kinosewak, if you'd follow me, we're going to Darwin's!"

The Salmons followed Chris. On the way, Thomas held his head as he felt like he was going to throw up. "Are you okay, Thomas?" Sammy asked. "Yeah. Just need to sit down for a minute."


Confessional: Scarlett

"No amount of Therapy, will ever make the Moment I saw the other team naked, Okay."

End Confessional


The Tigers were the first to arrive at the elimination area. They had all undergone wardrobe changes. Shawn wore a crimson vest and gray sweatshirt. Dave wore an orange shirt and purple vest. Ella had changed back into her blue princess outfit. Sky was wearing a blue and white shirt identical to the one she had soiled earlier that day.

A couple of minutes later, the Salmons and Chris arrived via helicopter. The Salmons hopped off the chopper, each with a satisfied look on his or her face and a bulge in their abdomens. "Alright, Kinosewak!" said Chris. "Please take a seat with the Bears! I need to speak with Chef for a minute!" The helicopter flew away and the Salmons sat down to the left of the Tigers.

"Boy, you guys missed out!" Topher bragged. "They had steak, ham, turkey, watermelon, pineapple, sausages, ribs, bananas, oranges, coconuts, and so much more!" The Bears cast annoyed glares at Topher.

"What Topher means, is that we brought you guys some leftovers!" said Sammy. She held out a doggie bag filled with the items Topher had just mentioned and handed it to Ella. "Oh! Thank you!" said the princess. The Tigers smiled appreciatively at the cheerleader and dug in.

"And get this!" said Topher. "At the front door, they had pictures of people who had been banned from the buffet! One of them was Owen from the first three seasons of Total Drama, and Sugar was another one!" Shawn, Sky, and Dave laughed.

"Was there anyone giving away clothes? Because of a Certain Host, I don't have any more clothes to wear. And we still stink..." Elliot angrily grunted.

Eventually, Chris arrived. "I'm sure that things will be fixed."

"Alright!" he said. "Now, I'm sure you're all wondering what you're doing here, given that no one's being eliminated and dinner has already served! Well, I have a serious issue to discuss with you all. It has come to my attention that a Certain Teammate has been causing a little Mischief. Elliot, You've had your shirt be ripped off by who know what, You run around while Freezing cold, and now your Dignity has been shredded."

"And now, I can't get everyone to stop staring at me." Elliot said. "Well, stop being so Freakin' Hot!" Amy yelled. Shawn tried his best to hide his guilty expressions.

"Anyway, Team Maskwak seems to be losing quite a bit and that they seem to be short on members. So, Ella had managed to win the Challenge that she was put against Jasmine and she had found the Golden Immunity Idol."

"These alliances drastically and unfairly shift the balance of power within each team. This will make eliminations too predictable and boring! So I'm going to break up these alliances by switching one of their members to the other team!"

The campers all looked startled.

"And without further ado, the players that are switching teams are…"

"Gerald and Jasmine!"

"What?!" cried Sky, Dave, Jasmine, and Sammy. Shawn and Beardo on the other hand sighed in relief. Gerald looked intrigued.

"Hey, I didn't say these alliances were official!" Chris defended.

"Oh well, It was fun while it lasted, Men. But I bid you farewell" Gerald said to Shawn and Beardo.

"Oh! And because Ella found the Golden Immunity Idol while someone else found the Regular Immunity Idol, I'm offering some of Kinosewak's members to balance the teams. So, Johnny! You'll be on Team Maskwak!"

"What!?" Johnny and Rodney simultaneously, yelled.


Confessional: Shawn

"With Gerald gone, I no longer need to form an alliance with him and sabotage Elliot. I feel so Guilty over trying to help get rid of him. That's a relief! Only problem is that He might get suspicious and Jasmine will probably know since Her team probably knows about Gerald. Man, I should deserve to have my Brain eaten by Zombie for what I did..."

-

Confessional: Sammy

"I'll miss, Johnny. Even worse, I have to work with Gerald. I don't even trust that guy!"

-

Confessional: Johnny

"Come on! Just when I was about to feel happy!"

End Confessional


"So we're still at Sixteen, and Teams of Eight." Chris narrated. "But I promise we'll feed that cannon some human next time! Here! On Total… Drama… Pahkitew Island!"
