Topher smiled as he hung up a picture ghost from the last challenge "Ah, now this place is a home"
He smiled back at the camera "Last time on Total Drama, we had a new theme set in the spooky manor at the top of the hill" it shows the contestants walking into the spooky manor. "And inside they all found themselves meeting many undead residents. With some contestants handling the ghost menace more than others" it shows Vinnie and Bailey playing with the ghost girl and Camila hiding in the closet.
"And in the end the synergy of Mimos and Ian got the gamer girl Charlotte sent home" it shows Charlotte getting all of her ghosts shot out and absorbed by someone else. "However, someone seemed to have been catching onto their little scheme in the end" it shows someone silently watching him from the bushes.
"Will Mimos and Ian keep up their schemes or will someone turn their villainy around on them and get them sent home? Find out this time on Total Drama Arcade!"
Intro Starts
"Dear Mom and Dad, I'm Doin' Fine," Topher and Nelly stood at the front of the island, with the nurse rapidly measuring Topher's limbs and where his organs should be.
"You guys are on my mind." The camera zoomed past the two hosts to an abandoned-looking city. In the middle of the plaza was a giant pool that the camera dove into. At the bottom, Dylan was trying to pull a chest up to the surface.
"You asked me what I wanted to be And now I think the answer is plain to see," Dylan felt someone tapping her on the shoulder. She turned around, only for Ian to come out of nowhere and swim away with the chest. Bubbles floated up to the surface, where Bobby floated on a raft. Bobby looked nervous about the water.
"I wanna be famous!" On land, Colmillo was holding Mitch in a chokehold as the writer desperately tried tapping out.
"I wanna live close to the sun," in one of the abandoned buildings Camila was waving her hands around mystically over a crystal ball as Marty just stared past it and at her chest. Veronica meanwhile just crossed her arms skeptically.
"Go pack your bags, 'cause I've already won," inside the crystal ball Camila saw Ellis just having a casual friendly conversation with Thomas whose fingers were crossed behind his back.
"Everything to prove, nothing in my way" past the duo, Michael and Mimos were sitting on the ground in the middle of nowhere just enjoying some peace until Vinnie fell down on top of him with a beehive in her hands.
"I'll get there one day" past them Matt was using his walking stick to walk around when Vinnie ran past him with the bee nest in her hands while dragging Micheal behind her. Matt fell to the ground as the bees quickly swarmed him.
"Cause I wanna be famous!" back in the abandoned city Mitzy and Tess were lying on the ground, smiling to themselves as they drew a comic. Liz looked down at her work and gave her a thumbs-up before feeling Bailey hug her from behind. Making blood come from her nose. However, Maxine came in and stomped on her paper
"Na na na na na na na na" in one of the buildings Therion and Charlotte playing a game in a room before Charlotte laughed confidently once beating the gamer.
"I wanna be, I wanna be, I wanna be famous" Walter was looking around the dock to the island, as he walked he could see some footsteps on the ground as he slowly followed them. As he got closer to the camera he flashed a flashlight at the camera.
"I wanna be, I wanna be, I wanna be famous" The light from the flashlight turned to the moon as it slowly moved down to the cast. Jaz and Antoinette sitting together by the fire. Jaz saw the camera on them and quickly pushed Antoinette out of the way, trying to get the camera to focus on her before the other girl pushed her right back. The other contestants slowly whistled.
Intro Ends
The first scene is set not long after the last challenge. Walter was lying in a bed as his eyes slowly opened. He groaned weakly as he rolled from side to side to look around. He could see that he was in what looked like it used to be a hospital.
"Why am I…" He looked down to see he was completely naked in a blanket. He immediately pulled it up to hide his modesty.
He looked under the blanket and didn't see any scars on his skin, causing the future lawyer to sigh in relief knowing the cohost likely didn't harvest his organs.
"S-sorry about your clothing. Nurse Nelly thought it was the only way we could get a good enough look at your injuries"
"I don't know how legal that is but that sounds reasonable enough" Walter turned towards the voice.
Standing on the other side of the room was a woman of African-American descent with short curly black hair. She was wearing a white button-up shirt with long sleeves that were pink at the end. She had a long white skirt and white crocks as well as a white nurse cap.
"Oh, hello there I don't think I've met you. Are you a producer of some kind?"
"No" she smiled and shook her head "I'm just the medical intern"
"Medical- isn't your cohost literally called Nurse Nelly?"
She shook her head "legally her medical license was suspended five years ago when she…" her face turns pale just from thinking it "that part isn't important. What is important is that she isn't allowed near organs unless I'm around"
"That's rather reassuring" Walter smiled "But, uh, can I get my clothes Mrs…?"
"You can just call me Lana" she smiled before throwing him his clothes. "Are you feeling well enough to go back to the others? I can't let you leave if you don't feel like tip-top shape!"
"I'm fine… may be better if you left the room so I could change" he joked with a small smile.
Lana blushed faintly "Right, of course. I'll leave you be then" she silently walked out of the room and closed the door.
Walter finally got the chance to look around his room, slowly realizing they had stuck him in a morgue.
"I don't think I hit my head that bad…" he deadpanned before getting up to get dressed.
Once Walter's dressed he walks away from the hospital on the edge of the city. Lana simply smiled as he waved him goodbye. "Please don't come again!"
Confessional: Walter
"I never would've guessed we had a sanitary, reasonable hospital on this island. But you know what? It makes me rather pleased. Any isolated area should have locations set aside for the safety of the people. I'm glad we won't need to add that to any class action lawsuit for the show"

As Walter relaxed and got comfortable from his injuries the rest of his team was off doing their own things. Most of them just didn't care about spending time together. Dylan was walking around the plaza with a relaxed smile before she noticed Bobby lying face down on some steps leading down to a fountain.
"You doing alright Bobby?" Dylan smiled a bit seeing Bobby just hanging out.
He gave her a thumbs up but didn't move from his position on the ground.
"Mind if I join you?"
Bobby sat up, smiling at her in a way that actually shows a hint of surprise "...Sure, I don't mind"
Dylan smiled as she sat down next to him. Once she was situated she stretched her arms and legs with a small groan.
Bobby smiled as he relaxed in the same pose she was in. "So, Bobby" Dylan turned her head with a smile "We don't talk too much but how's the competition been treating you?"
Bobby stared blankly at her for a moment "We're in a competition?"
Dylan stared back at him before chuckling in amusement "People on this show could use more of that mindset, honestly. Not to talk bad about them or anything, just people like Thomas always doing something bad or rude"
"Thomas is fun" Bobby smiled "He's always saying or doing something"
Dylan looked more interested "You don't have a negative thing to say about anyone do you?"
Bobby smiled and shrugged "Everyone I've met is nice to me so I guess not" before Dylan could say something else Bobby started getting up without any warning. "I'm gonna go find a snack… do you want some?"
Dylan got up after him "Are you going to the cafeteria? I don't think Insignificant is making any food right now"
Bobby just started walking away, not paying attention to what she was saying. Dylan shrugged with an amused smile as she started following behind the slob.
They get to the cafeteria, where Veronica and Ellis were both staring at them with annoyed or confused looks. "What are you two doing?" Ellis asked
"He's hungry" Dylan shrugged with a smile.
"He better not touch the food the rest of us are eating. That disgusting filth he's coated in will poison the rest of us" Veronica gagged.
"Come on, he probably won't do much beside-" Dylan spoke before Bobby arched his head upward sniffing some fresh new food coming in the back.
Bobby completely ignored the conversation between the three before bursting through the door and running into the back room. Insignificant was in the back angrily setting all the food in their pantries.
"That should be all of them. We need to get all of those smelly Americans fat enough that they can't move" he checks off the food on the list.
He could hear a loud slamming noise coming from behind. The American turned around to see Bobby licking his lips excitedly.
"What are you doing back here!? Don't you have snow to eat?" Insignificant glared, before seeing Bobby eyeing the food. "This isn't all for you! It's to be shared between you all, this is a communist island!"
Bobby just ignored him and dove toward one of the cabinets before devouring all the food he could get in his mouth
Insignificant silently groaned before getting on the phone "Yes, Supreme Leader? The food plan has failed. Yes. I'll give myself 50 lashes. Yes. Kim Ill Sung bless you"
He hangs up before pulling a whip out from another cabinet and walking out of the room.
Elsewhere, Jazmine and Goomine were both sitting together in their room. Jazmine was singing along with the tune of a song she was playing on her phone while recording it.
Next to her, Goomine was just quietly singing backup for her. She looked a bit more embarrassed than Jazmine, who was putting her all into this song.
Eventually, they finished, getting a confident smirk from the real Jazmine as she turned off the recording "Oh, I can't imagine how good this is going to sound"
"I could hear us singing, so maybe don't get your hopes up too high" Goomine chuckled awkwardly.
"Oh don't be so self-conscious Goomine" the maid waved her hand before playing the song she was listening to on her phone. She smiled as she tapped her toes at her horribly offbeat singing "Oh yea, see? That's good stuff right there"
Goomine silently raised her hands to her ears to block off the loud and unbearable noises. As she continued to play the video a set of loud steps could be heard coming closer until Mitch was peeking into the room.
"Oh. I thought you two were finally fighting to the death to see who the real Jazmine was" Mitch murmured.
Jazmine rolled her eyes as she paused the video "What are you even doing around here anyway? Shouldn't you be hiding in your homeless hut?"
Mitch shook his head "If I stay in one place too long the static will find where I'm hiding and harass me all night long"
Both maid girls looked at each other with skeptical looks. Mitch however stared back at them before turning towards Jazmine "bad singing girl, come over here." he leans closer and cupped the side of his face to hide his lips. "Quickly"
The girls silently looked at each other again before Jazmine accepted that this was happening as she got up to talk to him "What?"
Mitch grabbed her by the arm and pulled her out of the room "Has that thing been following you this entire time?"
"Yea, she's a perfect partner for my route to stardom" Jaz grinned.
"Are you stupid?" Mitch genuinely asked as he started panicking "That thing you're playing friend with is obviously trying to take your life and steal your identity!"
"You are constantly suspicious, why would I believe this is your loony theory that would actually be right?"
"Because this one is so obvious!" Mitch raised his voice before covering his mouth "She looks exactly like you and she seems way more competent with your interests than you too. If she is nicer than you the goo will have absolutely no problem replacing you. It's like the invasion of the body snatchers except you're watching it happen and not doing anything"
"Please, you're being paranoid. No one will likely Goomine more than me" she smiled confidently.
Mitch just stared at her before shrugging "Fine, whatever. I don't care either way as long as it doesn't try replacing me" he starts walking away.
Jaz rolled her eyes a bit as he left "That guy's weird"
Jaz jumped as she turned around to see Goomine smiling at her. "Oh, yea, super weird" she chuckled awkwardly.
Confessional: Jaz
"Ok, I don't want to give the little weirdo props, but I can't rule out his theory. It is sorta weird a gooey version of me is suddenly around and trying to make me think my singing is terrible… I'll have to watch her carefully"
XXX
"Good day contestants!" Topher announced over the crowds "Meet me on the other end of the island to the far west!"
"Ugh, that's going to be a long walk" Camila complained from her team's bedroom.
"Less complaining more walking" Ian grabbed her by the ear to get her on her feet.
"What the hell? Are you a nanny now or something?" Camila slapped his hand away as she stood up.
"I just like to annoy you" Ian smirked before he started walking out of the room. The last of the team to leave was Mimos, who came back to his room with a towel around his waist.
"Of course, they call for us when I'm in the middle of my shower" the mimicker groaned as he started getting dressed.
As he got dressed, he noticed a small note lying on the top of his bed. He raised an eyebrow curiously as he pulled it up to his face "What do we have here?" He smiled.
He looked at the note, which read: "Hello Mimos. I know you sabotaged Charlotte in our last challenge. But don't worry, I see nothing to gain from eliminating someone who makes this game as fun as it is. Rather, I thought you may enjoy some dirt I've found on all of our fellow contestants!"
Mimos's eyes widened slightly as he read the note "This is… interesting"
Confessional: Mimos
Mimos held the note up to the camera, showing the names of Dylan, Michael, Camila, Bobby, and Bailey listed on it, but what it said about them wasn't shown on the camera.
"Now, I don't know how to feel about this note. On one hand, all of this could be true. But, on the other. It could be false. And I don't even know who gave me this note, besides the fact that they know way too much. I'm definitely going to wait to act out anything in here until I get a little more proof. And then I'm going to find out who has this much dirt on everyone before someone else finds out."
XXX
Eventually, all of the contestants made it to the end of the island where a giant mountain had miraculously appeared. Topher was standing on the foot of the mountain while trying to look up to the top "Dang, I can't even see the top we knocked it out of the park"
"Are we climbing that?" Vinnie asked while looking up like him.
Topher swiftly turned around to glare at her "Wait for your host to give you the challenge" Topher threatened angrily "But yes, Vinnie, you're climbing this little hill here. It's a fairly simple challenge, all you have to do is climb to the top. Last team to make it there is up for elimination simple as that"
"No way is it that simple" Bailey whispered to her team.
Topher pointed right at her "Exactly right Bailey! I don't really care enough to keep this a secret, but all over the mountain will be things like traps or even things that might speed you ahead of anyone else. It's a real crapshoot!"
Topher stood there for a few moments, letting everyone stare at him awkwardly. "Can we go?" Therion asked slowly.
"One second" Topher looked at his watch. Before long Nurse Nelly splattered hard on the ground next to him "And here's a little example of what may face you" he smiled while pointing down at her.
Nelly was covered in honey and bee stings as she weakly groaned. "Now you can all go!" Topher smirked as he pointed up the mountain.
The contestants looked more nervous, but they started running toward the mountain to try to get a quick lead. Vinnie stays behind one moment to grab at Nelly and get some of the honey out of her hair and clothes.
"Vinnie, let's move!" Ian yelled angrily, causing the big bear to drop the nurse and quickly run after them.
The teams had begun climbing up the mountain, however, the Ferrets were already beginning to fall behind the others. Bobby and Dylan were both standing well below everyone else.
"What's taking you two so long?" Veronica complained.
"I'm climbing don't worry" Bobby smiled, making slow progress as he climbed. Though he left a trail of slime as he crawled.
"What about you Dylan? Care to climb a little faster?" Ellis smiled while looking down at Dylan, who somehow was further behind than Bobby.
"S-Sorry guys, I'm just a little worried about the idea of climbing all the way to the top. I get dizzy just looking at how high it gets…"
"I got this" Thomas assured his team before dropping down the mountain and picking her up by the back of her shirt "This way, we can keep climbing and if you annoy me I can toss you down the side of the mountain" Thomas smirked down at Dylan, who only got more nervous.
"What are we gonna do about Bobby then?" Ellis asked while looking at his slow speed.
"I'm not waiting on him" Veronica stated plainly. "I'll see you all at the top" she kept climbing.
"Well, I guess I'll see you guys later too" Ellis smiled before crawling upward.
"Even on a challenge where we have to cooperate we're already splitting up" Walter sighed softly before crawling down below Bobby to start pushing him up with his hands.
Bobby was a bit heavier than Walter was expecting but they were making very very slow progress.
"This is going to be a long challenge" Walter murmured worryingly as he glanced to the side to see Thomas basically juggling a panicking Dylan well above them.
Walter could only sigh in annoyance.
Further ahead, the other two teams were getting to the second level of the mountain. The mountainous terrain was now coated in snow and ice, making it much harder to get a good grip for anyone.
But, worse of all the contestants felt like they were about to freeze over, specifically Bailey. The girl was already wearing multiple layers of clothing but she quite literally was failing to move at all.
"A-A-Are you doing ok Bailey?" Liz chattered her teeth while looking back at her.
Bailey raised her head to look at Liz, showing that icicles were literally forming on her eyelashes. Her teeth chattered so much she couldn't say anything as she silently shook her head.
"Oh no," Liz backed up slightly to crouch by Bailey "You look terrible, does anyone have any spare clothing we can give her or something?" The team mom looked back at her teammates, before specifically looking at Camila.
Camila crossed her arms in front of her chest with a small frown "I-I'm already freezing with how much skin I'm showing so don't even consider it"
Ian and Mimos both just shrug "It's way too cold and I don't care much about if Bailey freezes to death" Ian states plainly.
Liz sighed slightly "Well, I don't know how much it would warm you up but I guess I can give you my shirt Bailey"
"Wait" Mimos frowned "Why don't we just stick her in that costume with Vinnie?" He gestured to the big bear.
"Oh, we're not doing that then?" Liz blushed faintly as she pulled her shirt back down again "Well, Vinnie, would you be ok with that?"
"I don't want to eat Bailey" Vinnie spoke worriedly.
"No, we're just putting you in the costume Vinnie. You two are always hugging. It's not like it would be that different" Camila murmured.
Vinnie stared there silently for a few moments, before looking at the freezing Bailey who looks like she's about to drop over dead.
"Let's hurry this along already!" Ian complained.
"Ok ok ok!" Vinnie waved her hands "She can get in the costume. It might be an itty bit snug though…"
"I doubt Mrs. Hugs a lot cares" Ian shrugged as Liz grabbed Bailey and lead her to Vinnie.
Vinnie raised her paws to pull her costume head up so Bailey could crawl in. Most of the contestants on her team looked toward her to try to see what she looks like but she was crouching down in her costume.
Liz softly dropped Bailey into the costume as Vinnie put the costume head back on "Think we're good to go now?"
The other three simply nodded as they started climbing.
Further ahead of them the Plumbers were pushing themselves to move as fast as they could. But, that was mostly thanks to Colmillo. While Therion and surprisingly Jazmine could stay ahead of everyone else the rest of their team wasn't too physically capable.
However, Colmillo had a genius strategy for this. She was slowly walking up the side of the mountain over and over again. When someone slowed down and couldn't keep up she'd pick them up and chuck them like a football further ahead.
"A-Are we sure this is necessary?" Maxine worried.
"Unless you suddenly get stronger, yep!" Colmillo chucked her much further than the others before running ahead to pick up an annoyed Mitzy.
"I never thought flying in the air could be this unsatisfying" Mitzy murmured before flying and landing face-first into some snow.
She groaned as she pulled herself up, spitting out some snow. She looked up, this time noticing that there was a large wooden hotel right ahead of her. "What's something like this doing all the way up here?"
"Another manor?" Jaz frowned "Do they really have nothing creative this early into the season?"
"This one looks a bit more modern at least" Therion shrugged.
Soon Mitch, Marty, and Maxine catch up with the others through Colmillo. On the outside of the building, they could see a small sign saying 'CONTESTANTS' pointing inside.
"Guess we gotta go in?" Mitch guessed as Colmillo stepped on his back to get a closer look.
"This feels like a pretty big detour" Colmillo spoke skeptically.
"Yea, but if the challenge has us going in here and we just skipped it you don't think Topher would just force us to go back down?" Therion spoke cautiously to avoid her choosing violence for some random reason.
Colmillo nods "Yea, that makes sense" the wrestler nods to what he was saying.
"Oh, ok good" he smiled "Now let's just-" he turned his back, which was just an opening for Colmillo who dropkicked him in the back, pushing him inside first.
Therion groaned before quickly pulling himself up, getting used to how she is. When he got up he could see a circular front desk with key slots right behind it. Stairs were going up and halls going to the side "This really is like that last challenge…"
He dusted himself off before walking to the desk. Sitting on top of the desk was a small bell. He looked around slowly before tapping the bell. It rings loudly, echoing all around the hotel as the rest of his teammates came inside.
"So, find anything?" Mitzy asks.
Therion shook his head "I think we just have to find a way through here"
As he spoke a green swirl formed behind him. When he turned back around, he could now see a short man of Asian descent with a green sweater standing there "Are you all here for the open rooms?" He smiled nervously.
"R-rooms?" Therion asked in confusion.
"No thanks, we're running to the top we're just-" Colmillo was about to turn down his offer before Mitch covered her mouth with his hand.
"Don't turn down his offer, you saw him just appear suddenly he might be dangerous!" Mitch whisper screamed in her face.
"You're being paranoid" Jaz rolled her eyes.
Their conversation was cut off by loud mumbling. The team looked back to the man behind the counter to see him rambling to himself about needing to land the deal.
"Sure thing sir, we'll take one of those rooms you were talking about" Theiron smiled at the small man.
The attendant beamed proudly before floating ahead of them "Follow me, follow me! I have so many rooms for you all to enjoy!"
The team looked skeptically at each other but they decide to follow after him, hoping these rooms will lead to where they needed to go.
Everyone was stuck in different rooms with different themes. But, before long the Ferrets along with Ellis and Veronica had also made it to the hotel room.
In the first room, Colmillo and Therion were both partnered in the 'VIP suite'. Which they found out was a large pink room with romantic parts strewn all around the room.
"This is… not exactly a room I was expecting when I saw the outside of this manor" Therion chuckled slightly looking around.
"This room's so big!" La Luchadora cheered before jumping on the massive heart-shaped bed. Bouncing up and down on it.
Therion chuckled a bit as he got on the bed "It is pretty comfy yea" he bounced up and down slowly just to feel how comfortable it is.
Colmillo looked down at him and smirked, wrapping an arm around him while crouching down. The video game nerd blushed a little at the contact before Colmillo suddenly pulled him into a headlock.
Therion grunted as she pulled him against her chest to hold him tighter "This bed is perfect for a bouncy wrestle!" She grinned.
"No offense Colmillo but I think we need to focus more on getting the challenge done" Therion blushed while trying to pull away from her.
"One fight isn't going to kill anyone" she grabbed him before turning his head around to pile drive him onto the bed.
Therion groaned softly "Fine, sure we can do that"
"Alright!" She cheered before wrapping his arm around his back to try popping his arm.
Elsewhere, Camila was walking back from the bathroom to her shared room with Liz. She yawned as she stretched her back.
As she walked she looked down to see purple petals leading back to her room. She sighed softly as she followed the trail and opened her door.
On their bed, Liz had set petals around on the bed. In her mouth, she had a rose while giving Camila a flirtatious wink.
Camila slammed the door shut before turning around "Guess I'm joining Ian and Mimos looking for a way out"
In a room similar to Therion and Colmillo, Maxine and Marty were both lying down in a bed just relaxing.
"Honestly I wish we were always just housed up here. Granted, would be nice having way more girls in here though" Marty mused while resting his hands behind his head.
"The pillows are absolutely unacceptable!" Maxine complained before tossing the ones she was using aside.
"I don't know, they seem fine to me" Marty murmured while leaning up "Do you want to use mine?"
"No" she crossed her arms before glancing at him "I want to use your torso as a pillow"
"Why would that be more comfortable for you?"
"Because EVIL hates comfy and soft! Evil wants… muscular"
"What?" Marty looked confused at her.
"Nothing!" Maxine quickly got back into character "I said nothing you need to concern yourself with!"
"Ok, ok, just lie down until our teammates tell us we need to do something" Marty patted his toned stomach with a slightly flirtatious grin.
Maxine blushed a little before lying down on the bed with her head resting on his body "Much better"
Marty just smiled in amusement before the door to his room suddenly slammed open. Mitzy stood there with a stern expression as Maxine jumped up from her spot on the bed. Marty just smiled and waved.
"Oh good all of my minions are here!" She smiled "Now we shall tell her our master plan!"
"We had a plan? I thought you just wanted to snuggle" Marty teased.
Maxine's face turned a bright red, but thankfully Mitzy came in to 'save her' "I don't care what you two do relationship-wise. But I do think you're both adorable by the way" she grinned teasingly.
Maxine continued to blush a deep red before standing up "Ok! Minions! You're going to look for ways out this instant!"
Mitzy and Marty both saluted to different degrees of mockingly as they got up and started looking around the room.
"Any chance you two remember who you voted for when Charlotte went home?"
Marty whistled while pulling books from a shelf "I voted who we wanted out"
"And I refuse to be out eviled!"
Mitzy just frowned out of annoyance.
Confessional: Mitzy
"I know one of them decided to vote for Charlotte last time. She's not someone I would consider dumb so I know she would vote for the obvious team issue. So one of them clearly ignored what I was suggesting. If I have to guess, it was Marty since Maxine seemed to want Colmillo gone almost as much as I did." she sighed "It's a shame I can't do anything about that but whatever, as long as he doesn't keep doing that it won't be an issue"
Confessional: Marty
"Yea, I voted against the alliance. And it really did suck eliminating anyone on this team. I mean Charlotte was definitely a 7 out of 10. But she kinda lost fair or square, and I mean Colmillo does usually carry us. So I don't feel too bad about not voting with them if I'm honest"

While just about everyone was furiously looking around every corner for a way to sneak out of the place. However, the small man in charge of the inn was sure to get in the way of anyone getting close to an escape.
In one room, Vinnie hadn't even bothered leaving her room yet as she stood up in the middle of the room. The costume itself wasn't moving at all, especially with the bear head or arm.
Inside the costume was a different story. For the first time, there was filmed proof that Vinnie wasn't just a living costume. Vinnie herself was holding Bailey like a little baby as she smiled softly to herself.
She was a meager 5'3" with olive-brown hair and medium-length wavy brown hair. She was also wearing a pretty yellow sundress with honey pot designs all over it.
Bailey murmured softly as she slowly opened her eyes. The ice that had latched onto her had melted by now. She blinked a few times looking up at Vinnie, both girls silently stared at each other.
"H-Hi there" Bailey smiled awkwardly "W-Who might you be?"
She smiled nervously "I'm, uh, Vinnie" she slowly let her down.
"Vinnie?" Bailey stared up at her as they stood directly in front of each other. She just smiled in response as Bailey started hugging her "I see why you're in this costume, it's always so warm…"
Vinnie's face lit up in a blush as she softly hugged her back "Y-Yea… I don't want to kick you back but do you mind g-getting out? This costume is kind of only for one person"
"Oh, I'm sorry" Bailey blushed slightly as the camera moved back outside of the stretched-out costume. Suddenly, Bailey got shot out of the costume, landing hard on the ground.
"That's better" Vinnie spoke more jovially as she pats her fake belly.
Bailey looked around the room to see a very different bedroom "what happened? I only remember getting to a mountain I don't remember anything about a wooden bedroom"
"Sit down I can explain what you missed" Vinnie walked over to the bed before sitting down on the bed. Bailey sits down with her, but the moment she sat down the bed spun around suddenly.
Vinnie and Bailey move around in the walls before suddenly getting fired from a chimney further up on the mountain as they landed face-first into the snow at the top of the mountain.
Bailey immediately started shivering from the cold as she hugged herself "w-w-w-what happened?"
Vinnie raised her costume head up to look at the top of the mountain "I think it means we finished the challenge" she smiled while jumping up.
"D-Do we at least have somewhere to w-w-wait?" Bailey whimpered.
Vinnie looked around, not seeing a single place for them to go "Guess not. Are you cold Bailey?" She looked down at her to see she was starting to freeze again.
"Y-Y-Y-Yes" Bailey hugged herself to stay warm. Vinnie came around to hug her "I'm sure we won't have to wait too long"
As Vinnie spoke they could hear people trudging through the thick snow. Both girls turned around to see Maxine leading her two partners up the mountain. "Oh good, there's already a bunch of people coming!" Vinnie cheered.
Maxine was the first one of them to make it to the top as she turned around to face a tired Marty and Mitzy.
"From this point onward, this mountain will be claimed by EVIL!" Maxine spoke proudly while raising her hands into the sky.
Marty smiled and clapped enthusiastically for her as Mitzy was much less excited.
However, triumphantly, while she was holding her hands up, a strong gust of wind picked up as it pulled her cloak up.
Marty and Mitzy stare in awe, both having a growing blush on their face. Marty however had more of a grin compared to Mitzy's surprise.
Maxine lowered her hands immediately to bring her cloak back down. Her face was a bright red as she stared down at her minions "You didn't see anything!"
Confessional: Marty
He had a wide grin on his face "I saw more than I ever expected to see right there. So I'd call this challenge a win one way or another"
Confessional: Maxine
She was still blushing as she fidgeted with her cloak "I-It gets hot under this cloak. I-I'm not some perv or something I just hate-" someone off-screen says something, causing her to turn redder "I wasn't wearing a shirt because I thought Marty might peek! This confessional is over!" She quickly stomped out.

More and more contestants were finding ways to sneak past the hotel by the time the last members of the Ferrets made their way up to the mountain. Thomas had been holding Dylan over the side of the mountain the entire time as Michael silently pushed Bobby around on the ground creating a large snowball.
"Ugh, we finally made it" Walter sighed in relief, he was coated in honey and plenty of bear scars. "T-Thanks for helping move Bobby, Michael"
Michael just nodded before wiping his slime-covered hand on the snow.
"So this is where we have to go now?" Thomas asked while holding Dylan over the edge with one finger "I guess it's good the host didn't make things too boring" he shrugged before throwing Dylan onto solid land.
Walter glared slightly at Thomas "Let's just get inside" he murmured.
Thomas just shrugged as he lead them inside. The moment he opened the door the small Asian man smiled seeing them "Ah even more people looking for a room! How wonderful!"
"A room?" Thomas raised an eyebrow at him "We don't want some dumb room we're just traveling around here"
"Y-you don't want a room?" The man frowned slightly.
"Not really" Michael shrugged "Unless those will get us out of here anyway. A room by myself would be preferred"
The man drooped slightly "T-The rooms on first entry are t-totally free! Are you sure you don't want to reconsider?"
"No. I don't want your stupid rooms! Considering how dusty this place is, I can only imagine how terrible the rooms would be" Thomas rolled his eyes.
The man looked down "I-I could clean the rooms a bit more?"
"No thank you!-" out of nowhere Ellis and Veronica came in to speak over him "We can take them to some rooms Mr. Oami, don't you worry" Ellis quickly cut in.
"Ah, you two" he smiled hearing his voice "If these are your friends then I suppose it's more than fine to let you take the lead!" He disappeared in a small green mist.
"You guys are so lucky we came in" Veronica rolled her eyes at them.
"What do you mean by that?" Walter frowned "You guys also shouldn't have ditched us at the very start of the challenge!"
"Just shut up" Ellis threatened as the two of them led away from the small man.
"What are your guys' problems?" Michael whispered once they were away from him.
"If you haven't noticed but that guy really wants to house contestants. So mocking his home is probably going to piss him off" Ellis explained
"Well, maybe he shouldn't make this place suck" Thomas shrugged.
Ellis and Veronica groaned in annoyance "Just try escaping as secretively as you can" Veronica hissed before walking away.
"Wait, do you guys know who's still around?" Walter quickly called to them before they left earshot.
"Oh, yea" Ellis snapped his finger "It's basically just Therion and Colmillo going at it in their room and Liz is-" as he spoke they could hear a rocketing noise and followed up by some cheering "Ok, probably just Colmillo and Therion"
"Why do you think it wasn't Liz?" the Origami King asked.
"Because you can still hear the groaning in the Lovers sweet" Veronica gestured to the room to their right, where they could hear someone groaning loudly in pain.
"This is a family show!" Thomas yelled at their door.
"So we just have to escape. Sounds easy enough to me" Dylan shrugged before going toward a random part of the wall to lean against it, before suddenly disappearing into thin air.
"Oh, this is way easier than I thought" Walter goes to do the same thing she did, only for nothing to actually happen.
"Guess that's a one-time use" Ellis mused.
Michael sighed softly "Let's just get looking"
As they started spreading out Therion pushed Colmillo away "Ok, we need to get back to focusing on the challenge" Therion panted.
"Ha! Just means I won!" Colmillo smiled smugly as she stood up and flexed.
"Y-yea, you won. Now can we focus on the challenge please?"
"Oh, sure," she nods, "But what are we doing again?" Colmillo scratched her chin.
"Finding a way out" Therion stood back up with a small frown "And I can't imagine many of the teams are still looking around now"
"Oh please, I can't even imagine finding a way out before us" she smirked as she slammed their door open. Outside they could see Ellis and Veronica pushing the top of a door, causing it to spin around before taking them to God knows where.
This only left Thomas, Michael, and Bobby to keep looking around. "Ok… maybe I did keep us distracted for way too long" Colmillo chuckled awkwardly.
"Let's just focus on catching up" Therion grabbed her arm before quickly leaving the room to try finding other ways out.
Confessional: Therion
"I shouldn't have said yes to her idea" he sadly slapped his own forehead "If we don't get out that's probably going to be the last straw for the team. I just need to keep us more focused on challenges if we don't screw this one up"

As the last few continued to look around mostly in silence, the spirit appeared in the middle with a small smile on his face "May I ask what we're all doing?" He looks between them.
"Nothing" Michael threw some books over his shoulder.
"Yea, nothing" Bobby smiled while slamming himself into a wall.
The man frowned slightly looking at them before turning to the others "Don't mind us, sir, just looking around the place for our vacation" Therion smiled nonchalantly.
"Oh, of course" the man nodded. He was about to teleport away when Thomas snickered loudly.
"I can't believe he would actually believe that" he smirked.
"W-what are you saying, Master Thomas?" The man started getting nervous as he floated toward him.
Thomas turned around to fully show off her mocking smile "That gamer is obviously lying I mean c'mon!" The villain cackled "Haven't you noticed everyone ditching this place?"
The man tapped his fingers together "I do not disturb my visitors when they are choosing to sleep or enjoy their time with their partner"
Thomas rolled his eyes before slamming a door open to show no one was inside "No one is staying here partner. No one likes this crummy place!"
The figure stared silently before clutching his head "d-did everyone find this place abhorrent!?"
The three guys awkwardly looked at each other as Colmillo pushed on a window "Hey, I got this window open we can just ditch this crummy place!"
The small man groaned angrily as large black pieces of gunk started flying in every direction as they covered walls and floors.
"Oh, is baby going to cry?" Thomas taunted with a smirk.
More and more gunk flew from him as it covered the window Colmillo was planning to use. "I will not let my quaint inn be dragged through the mud!"
"It could probably help this place look a bit nicer" Thomas deadpanned.
The small man started morphing, turning into a much larger version of himself with sharp fangs and red eyes. Everyone besides Thomas and Colmillo looked nervous at his change as the large man flew down to try biting on Thomas.
The little maniac laughed excitedly as he ran away from the big guy, running in the direction Therion was standing, running quickly around him as the large man flew at the gamer.
La Luchadora jumped in the way of the spirit, bringing her fist back to smash the creature in the face with an aggressive glare "No one is beating up this nerd but me so BACK OFF"
The spirit shook his head before glaring daggers at her "You really want to go now!?"
"You bet!" She raised her fists "Bring it on!"
As they both began to brawl Therion looked toward the three Ferrets standing together. "Let's get out of here I got them distracted" Thomas smirked.
"We still haven't found any way out" Michael murmured with a frown "and I really don't even know where to start"
Bobby tapped his chin before just pointing at a window "Colmillo was just going to escape through something like that. We could just use one" he smiled.
"It's a long walk but I'm all for that" Thomas turned before throwing Michael out a window and chasing after him.
Bobby slowly chased after them as Therion turned around to Colmillo holding the big spirit in a headlock. "Colmillo, we have to find a way out of here and fast, they're getting ahead of us!"
She turned to see Bobby squeezing through the window "Alright estupido, tell us where an escape is before I pop your head like a grape!"
"I-I won't give! You've all destroyed my dreams and I will not let you get the last laugh!"
"We didn't mean anything like that" Therion walked over with an innocent smile "a friend of ours has been complaining about the technology stalking him we could always get him to be a permanent resident"
"I don't want your lies jer-" Colmillo squeezed his head hard enough to turn his face purple.
"Don't talk to him like that or else we're having a real problem!"
He pats her arm in surrender "J-Just stomp on that plank of wood together" he points to it "I-I've been meaning to fix that for a while now. S-So please just leave!"
"That's what I wanted to hear" she smirked before throwing him into a wall. She moved toward Therion before grabbing him under her arm "You're way more fun to fight than that guy" she grinned before jumping on the plank on the ground he pointed out.
Thereon blushed faintly at her comment as they suddenly get launched above the heads of the three Ferrets, landing face-first into the top "Congratulations Plumbers! You've come in second place!"
The four Ferrets at the top sighed in annoyance as the other three slowly made their way up. "So that means the Ferrets are going to be going home, sorry losers"
"We get it" Michael murmured in annoyance.
"At least we know it's not us" Veronica whispered with a smug smirk to Ellis.
"If we're lucky it'll be Bobby" he whispered back with his own smirk.
"E-excuse me Topher" Bailey raised her hand while still in a bear hug "D-Do we have to climb all the way down the mountain a-again?"
"Nah" he waved his hand "We can just use my escalator"
"...Escalator?" Camila asked slowly.
"Yep," Topher smiled "How else was I expected to get up here" he gestured to an escalator going all the way back to the ground.
As the contestants started walking to the lift Veronica pushed the host down into the snow "ruined my cute outfit when we could've used that" she growled angrily.
Confessional: Mimos
Mimos sat down in the confessional while looking over the note. He had a small frown as he read it "Ok… so it's likely this note is true. I wasn't watching them too much but Thomas was terrorizing Dylan's fear of heights. And that's listed on here. While that could have been a good guess, I can't exactly turn down this idea" he smirked a little "I better start using this well"

As the team made it back to their room Dylan physically dropped onto the ground to her knees "Please guys, I try being chill and just hanging out but I can't keep competing with him"
"Oh please don't be a baby" Thomas rolled his eyes.
"You were-! You-" Dylan breathed softly as she stood up "I'll be back in a moment" she pranced out of the room like a ballerina.
"Well, now that she's gone let's talk about voting her out" Thomas grinned.
The room was mostly quiet after his suggestion before Veronica spoke up "I think we could probably do better voting out Bobby"
"No offense Bobby" Ellis quickly spoke after her.
"None taken," the slob smiled.
Walter silently stood up with a frown "Ok, no more talking about our votes. We'll vote and that's that ok?"
Most of the team nods before leaving in different directions.
After a good while, the Ferrets were seated at the elimination ceremony. Topher slowly shook his head at them "You've all been here before, so there's no need to go over the basics again! So how about we get right to the voting then?"
"Fine by me. I'll go first" Veronica smirked as she wiped her hair over her shoulder.
Confessional: Veronica
"Yea so obviously I'm voting Blobby. Sick little goblin holds us back and makes the whole room smell rancid! Disgusting" she stamps his picture.

Confessional: Walter
"While I'd want to vote Veronica like last time, Thomas has been far worse. At least Veronica helped explain part of the challenge to us" he stamps Thomas's picture.
XXX
After everyone voted Topher stood in front of the contestants "Ok, let's get to the results show we?" He cleared his throat.
"Veronica, Ellis. You were both leading your team today so you get first treat" he tosses marshmallows to both of them, making them smile proudly.
"Also safe is Walter" the future lawyer smiled as he caught his marshmallow "And Michael" the Origami king just let his bounce off his forehead.
"Leaving us with our final three. Bobby, well, we all know why you're here. Same with you Mr. Psychopath" Thomas just smiled at the nickname.
"But Dylan, you were a total pansy today. But I suppose that's more forgivable. You're safe today" Dylan sighed in relief as she caught her marshmallow.
"So. Bobby. Thomas. The one going home today will be…

Thomas. You're out buddy"
Bobby smiled nonchalantly as the marshmallow landed in his hair as he slowly raised his hands to catch the marshmallow.
"Ah, what a bummer" Thomas sighed before shrugging "Was hoping to cause some more fun but whatever. I definitely had fun while it lasted" he grinned.
The tube came down before sucking up the little miscreant. Dylan breathed a sigh of relief once he was gone.
"Thanks for voting with me guys" Dylan smiled at everyone but Ellis and Veronica.
"Eh, no issue" Michael murmured while getting up to go get some rest.
Ellis and Veronica both silently frowned as the others got up to walk back to their room. They both silently turned to each other with a look clearly showing their need to deal with things.
AN: And there goes our first guy in a while. Thomas was a good oc, I enjoyed him being a little gremlin for a bit, but like with Antoinette I just had a handful of other people who could likely do the same thing as him. But still gotta say thanks to GP for giving me him, it was greatly appreciated.
