Morning soon came to the Canadian land, the sun rising and was not strong enough to break through the thick clouds that lingered still after last night's powerful storm. Only a drizzle remained, showcasing that the storm was ebbing away but it would still be some time before it dissipated completely.

At the Anderson manor, two young women were slowly waking up in the Cool-Down Room. Taylor and Heather groaned as they squirmed on their respective bean bag couches, the duo rising from their slumber. Heather was the first to rise, slowly going into a sitting position and muttered, "Ugh... what happened? What hit me?". She was rubbing the back of her neck, trying to get the kinks out from her body.

Taylor soon rose as well, stretching her arms to also get the kinks out from her body. She soon rubbed her eyes and asked softly to herself, "Oooh… why does my neck hurt so much?". She rubbed the area on the back of her neck, then looked to Heather's direction. The vision was fuzzy at first due to just waking up but gradually became clear until she could see her fine.

The daughter of Kelly spoke a little louder, "Heather what are you...? Say, where are we?".

Heather looked in her direction, her mind rebooting back up as she saw that Taylor & herself were still in their swimsuits. And also in the Cool-Down Room, gazing down at the large bean bags they were on. She replied, "I think... I think we're still in Cody's house. But I don't remember how we got here?".

She stood up slowly on shaky legs, Heather doing the same. The duo regained their balance and center of gravity, looking around more to take in their surroundings. The brown-haired beauty spoke, "I remember that we were... in our competition. Then we were fighting over Cody and... after that, not much."

A firm voice stated, "I can tell you what happened."

The duo turned towards where the voice was at, showing that it was Mercedes! The beauty who could be a mistake for Lindsay's twin had come in to check on them, saw them rising, and opened the door to confront the two who really had some nerve to do what they did. At least in her eyes. The limo driver gazed coldly at Taylor and Heather, showing to them that there were key differences between her and Lindsay in many ways.

Heather said, "I know you! You're the limo driver! What are you doing here?"

Mercedes still kept a neutral look on her face as she answered, "First of all, my name is Mercedes. Second, I have a room here since I do work for the Andersons. And third, it was I who put you out last night. I pinched a certain spot on your necks to knock you two out while you were making a spectacle in front of Master Cody.".

Yet another reason while Mercedes was different from Lindsay; she knew pressure points, was logical & also had an extensive vocabulary than the adorable, bubbly busty blonde former contestant of Total Drama.

Heather and Taylor's eyes widened when the memories did hit them, on how they felt someone pinch the back of their necks and knocked them out effectively. Mercedes spoke again before they could say anything else, "And also, I heard everything last night. I heard about your competition to see who could seduce and bed the young Master, and also how it escalated like so. And I told him everything.".

This made the two freeze up in horror, thinking that they were now fired and done with if Cody knew about their little game from last night.

Seeing the two very much fearful, Mercedes closed her eyes and stated, "Do not worry. Your jobs with the WWS-TKOA are still secure. Despite what you two planned and did... Master Cody made sure you two were comfortable and put you here. And also that he is still letting you keep your employment with him.".

She shook her head slightly, believing that sometimes Cody was just too soft for his good. But that was one of the qualities she liked about him. Heather and Taylor sighed in relief, glad that they still were part of Cody's association.

However, Mercedes spoke up in a cold tone, "Master Cody is up and getting ready for the day. I suggest that you two get changed back into your clothes and leave. You already made fools of yourselves, and in the process him as well from last night.".

Their eyes bugged out as Taylor exclaimed, "What?! B-But what about last night?! The roads should be flooded still by now! We're most likely stuck here!".

Mercedes replied, "I heard the morning report today on the radio. A majority of the roads are still flooded and unusable, yes. But they are draining away & some of the backroads are now drivable. I already called a cab that will take you two back to your abodes.".

Heather put in, "Wait! Can't we see Cody? I mean, I think it'll be better if we explained to him our actions in person." She really wanted to make sure that her boss was still under her sway/influence if even a little. However, the glare that Mercedes gave her made her feel like a mouse that had been cornered by a hawk.

The beautiful redheaded limo driver replied harshly, "I think you two have done enough from last night. Now, get back in your regular clothes and get going! Unless you want to see what I can do...". Mercedes knew more styles than just pressure points, and while not a complete expert... she knew some wrestling moves that would make the ladies tap out or scream out their submission quick.

Taylor sighed and replied, "Yes ma'am. We'll get ready to leave.". Unlike Heather, she knew when it was time to make a tactician-like retreat. Also, she was feeling a little guilty about how everything seemed to spiral out of control last night concerning herself & Cody. She wanted him to choose her, but in a better way than Heather. At least in her view.

Mercedes looked to the rich wrestling beauty, seeing that she had more sense and also genuine emotion there which eased her hard gaze. If only slightly. She pointed down to the table in front of them, the ladies looking down and seeing their clothes. It was all dried and folded neatly on top of the other.

The limo driver put in, "I took the liberty to put your wet clothes in the washer and drier earlier this morning. So you two are all set to get going. And put the swimsuits back on neatly on the bean bags.

I'll get them later." She then turned and left the room & the duo so they could get changed.

Heather and Taylor took their clothes, going to the opposite areas of the room to change. Since no one else was around to see them, they changed in front of the window walls with no problem. Heather was steamed as she changed into her dry, clean clothes. The Asian beauty was so ready to rock Cody's world, securing her future as his girlfriend and perhaps more IF things had fallen into place. She was glad though that she still had a job though, despite what occurred.

Taylor was a different story than Heather. She did want Cody to be hers, but for a better reason than the Asian woman. In her view, Cody was special and different from the other boys she had dated. And after her loss in her debut, also a better manager & man in trying to cheer her up. And after what her mother told her, she believed that Cody would be the key to a better future than the one they currently had for the moment.

She thought, 'I'm glad that Cody didn't fire me. I also hope to make it up to him. And I got to learn NOT to fall in line with any of Heather's schemes!'. A lesson well-learned in her view.

Once they were all dressed up & leaving their borrowed swimwear on the bean bags as instructed, the duo walked out of the room and headed towards the Front Door. As they walked ahead, they could hear the sound of sizzling bacon. Arriving in the kitchen, they saw Mercedes making breakfast.

On the counter were paper plates that had pancakes, scrambled eggs, sausage patties, and bacon. They were steaming, showing that they were freshly made. Near the plates were containers that had either orange juice, apple juice, or milk. It seemed that Mercedes was good in the kitchen as well as with driving.

Heather and Taylor's mouth watered, wanting some of the delicious-looking food. However, the twin of Lindsay looked at them and shook her head. She stated firmly, "This is not for you. This is for Master Cody and me. I believe that you two can get breakfast somewhere else. Now scoot! Go on!".

Taylor exclaimed, "Hold on! I mean, can we stay a little bit so we can apologize to Cody?! Look, I know we messed up big time! But can we just explain ourselves to him first? Please...". She was desperate to get on her boss's good side in any way possible, Heather climbing on board the bandwagon as well.

Mercedes looked into the faces of the duo, seeing forced sincerity from Heather... but genuine sincerity from Taylor. She sighed, shook her head, and replied, "Grab a plate and some glasses. I know this is against my better judgment, but go on.".

The two smiled, relieved at this fortunate turn of events. Heather and Taylor grabbed some plates & loaded them with food of their choice. Once they did that, they grabbed some paper cups to get their drinks. Taylor took milk, Heather orange juice before going to the table and sitting down to eat. Mercedes just shook her head as she continued to cook.

Just as the visitors to the manor started to dig into their food, the fireman pole top opened up, and sliding on down was Cody, all dressed up in casual wear.

The ladies turned to greet him, but they saw that he looked... different.

The young man was now standing a bit taller, straighter with confidence. He seemed to carry himself with the attitude, no arrogance in it at all. There was also a smile on his face, one that truly showed he was joyful about something. The changes to his demeanor and walk were subtle, small... yet significant as it showed that Cody went through something that he truly enjoyed.

Mercedes smiled, very much glad to see her employer's son now coming in with an upbeat attitude. While in the past he often did come down happy, this was different in the subtle but strong way. She blushed slightly at what happened last night between him and her. While they did not go all the way, she was able to teach and please him.

Thus why he looked to be glowing to the women.

Cody looked to the duo, lifting a hand and stating, "Hey you two! What's up? Did you sleep well?". He looked to Mercedes, a slight blush on his face as memories came back from last night, but he did not shy away from as he would. He gazed at her with confidence and gratitude, making her smile & the blush on her face increasing slightly.

While he was now getting some breakfast for himself, complimenting the limo driving beauty for how she made the food, Heather and Taylor were just dumbstruck on how much of a change happened in Cody Anderson.

While Cody was eating his food, Heather was the first to recover as she asked, "Cody? Is this really you? You... seem different...".

The young man drank some milk to get the food more down his throat, looked to the Asian beauty with a small smile, and answered, "Yup, it's me! As for the difference, well... let's just say that I had a lot to think about after Mercedes told me on what you two were doing."

Hearing the words coming from him made Taylor and Heather look down, some guilt on their faces, the brown-haired rich girl more so than Heather. Cody was not going to tell them on his lessons and time with Mercedes, as it was something just between them. While he did seem to have more confidence in himself, he was still a gentleman in some aspects.

Cody took another bite of his pancakes, looked to the two wrestling beauties, and stated, "I'm flattered that you two tried to seduce me, really made my male ego get a very strong boost. But... why you did it is an important factor, and a bit disappointed that it was all to make sure you had an easy meal ticket."

Again, the ladies looked down still at their food as the words hit home. Mercedes joined them at the table with her meal, merely watching and listening as she ate her food.

Cody took another sip of milk and continued, "Now, I won't breathe a word of this to anyone. I'm not like that, wanting to humiliate someone like that. And you will keep your jobs. But... I want you two to think more clearly & consider who you're targeting a bit more empathically. Do I make myself clear?".

He spoke the last part with a hint of strong authority like a real boss would to his employees. The girls looked to him and nodded, both saying "Yes sir". Heather and Taylor shivered at the last part, the tone he used that stated that Cody was not going to be someone to easily push around like before.

And surprising to them, the shiver was pleasant to them. Very pleasant.

Soon, a horn honk came through the Front Door. Mercedes gulped down some apple juice and said, "I believe that your ride is here. Ladies, I trust that something like this will not happen again?". She spoke with authority as Cody did, the girls replying that they would behave next time they came here. They did NOT want to get on the bad side of the one who easily knocked them out.

Taylor rose from her chair, going to Cody and kissing him on the cheek. He was surprised by this but more positively. There was no blushing on his part, but a true smile was on his face. The rich girl smiled at seeing this and said, "Thank you for last night Cody, and for allowing us to keep our jobs & what we did under wraps. Heh... normally Chris would use this as instant leverage or something like that.".

The young man replied "Then it's a good thing I'm not that idiot. I'm many things Taylor, but one thing I promise is this. That I will NOT be like that psycho from Total Drama.".

Taylor was pleasantly surprised at the level of confidence coming from her employer, looking to Mercedes and had an inkling on what took place last night that transformed Cody into what he was now. She would keep it to herself of course, and not go off on that assumption until it was officially confirmed.

Cody did learn much from Mercedes, and his transformation was a start & still in the process. How he grew and flourish would be up to him and the many trials that awaited him.

Taylor's smile increased slightly as she gave Cody another kiss, this time on the forehead, and said, "Now that is something worthwhile to hear. Well... I'll see you later Cody. Bye!". She then started to walk towards the door, a spring in her step as she left.

In her view, Cody was now more of prime boyfriend material to her. She would have to tell her mother what happened, but she had a feeling that Kelly's view of the young lad would rise exponentially.

Heather got up, went to Cody, and said, "I have to say... I like this new change in you, Cody. Heh... and it's good to see you still have that gentlemanly quality that we like to see.".

The Anderson heir smiled and replied, "Thanks, Heather. I still believe to treat a lady with respect, dignity, honor, passion, compassion, and love. And that is part of me that will never change as well.".

The Asian beauty smirked and said, "You're becoming more and more of a catch, boss. I hope next time, I can catch you all for myself.". Mercedes frowned at that as she took a bite of her bacon, seeing that Heather was flirting again on dangerous ground.

Heather kissed Cody on the other cheek, soon saying goodbye and walking towards the door where Taylor was waiting for her. The Asian cutie put a sway in her hips as she walked away, making sure that Cody saw her legs and booty swaying just for him.

He watched alright, but not with a starving, lecherous gaze. But more of an appreciative one that was in control. Mercedes and Taylor smiled, proud to see Cody more in control unlike most males would be if they saw Heather doing that.

The duo went out the door, the two leaving to back to their abodes.

Cody saw them leave, a small smile on his lips as he chuckled and resumed eating his breakfast. Mercedes was quite proud of her student. He was slowly becoming the man she was teaching him to be concerning the opposite sex, yet still keeping that boyish charm that got him the attention of the ladies in the first place.

The Anderson heir finished his plate, finishing the last of his milk and started to clean up his area. He threw his paper cup in the trash and put the dishes in the sink, turning to Mercedes and asked, "So Mercedes, how are the streets and the weather today? Any reports on the news?".

The redheaded beauty finished her bacon and answered, "Yes. The day is going to be rainy still for a couple more days, but more or less drizzle. Most of the major roads are closed, but some minor ones that did not get flooded are now in use. I believe it will be some time until the major roads are open.".

Cody went to the living room, picking up the remote and turning on the TV and DVR. The screen came to life, the channel being the news since the DVR was programmed to go to said channel when turned on. The young man and his sexy limo driver saw pictures of various highways and other major roads quite flooded but also barred due to falling debris such as trees and other objects that had been moved by the storm.

They saw a picture of the road leading to the Anderson Corporation Tower, the road flooded but thankfully the water didn't reach the steps of the elevated entrance. Another picture saw the road leading to the WWS-TKOA gym closed off, the building having its security features up & still standing.

Cody saw that while the gym itself was most likely still not flooded on the inside, there would be no going there or to the tower for the day. The reporter that was getting an aerial view of the spots stated that all businesses would be close for one or two days.

The young man was now thinking until the telephone rang, Cody answering it and heard his mother on the other line. She was relieved to hear her son's voice, asking if he was okay. He answered that he was fine, the manor still standing and also finished having breakfast with Mercedes. This pleased Susan, now relieved that her son was in good hands and company. She informed him of the situation, that while the inside of the building was still dry she most likely would not return home until tomorrow.

Susan also told Cody that Mark was also okay, the storm drains managing to keep his clinic dry but some down the road was clogged from various debris. So even he was stuck there. Thankfully for both parents, the buildings had supplies that would help them survive. The duo had stocked up well at both the clinic and building, so they were well off for now.

Cody was glad to hear this, saying that he hoped the best for them. Susan told him to be careful and also to take the day off to relax since he had been working hard. He answered that he would, and soon mother & son said goodbye before hanging up.

The young man was about to ask Mercedes something when his cell phone went off. He answered it, "Hello?".

A familiar voice came on the other side... it was Leshawna! She replied, "Hey honey! Glad to hear from you! I wanted to see if you were okay after that big storm. How ya doing?".

He grinned, loving to hear her voice. Leshawna's voice was good to hear, 2nd place while Lindsay's voice was at the top spot. He answered, "I'm doing good. The storm hit us hard, but thankfully we're okay. My folks are stuck in their offices, so for the time being, I have the place to myself.".

Leshawna said, "That's good to hear. Sorry about your folks. I wish I could go see ya, but I'm at my mom's place. We're having a little get-together since its Sunday.".

Cody then had an idea come into his head. He asked, "Leshawna, do you think it would be okay if I came over to your mother's house?".

The buxom, bootylicious beauty was silent on the line for a moment before she answered, "You... want to come over here? Why?".

He answered, "I would like to see you, for starters. I like a chance to see how my lovely wrestling ladies are doing on their off-time. Also, I want to see how your family is doing. I honestly want to see them & want to know their reaction to seeing your match on Friday. And also if the vase I got for them is still good."

Leshawna remembered how her family had been overjoyed at seeing the object that was a replica of the one Harold smashed some time ago, a gift from Leshawna's great-grandmother. And also how the family had welcomed her, all excited with love and pride as they had witnessed her winning the match on Friday.

The ebony beauty had admired Cody the first time they met when he proposed to them his wrestling venture. And steadily as close to three months had passed by since then, her respect and admiration grew... along with the powerful emotion known as love! Cody had done a lot for the others, even more so when he got the vase for her family out of his own pocket money!

And now after the events of the debut of WWS-TKOA, she wanted to show him how much she wanted him!

The Bootyful Empress answered, "Mmmm… I got to say this first, love the suave and confident tone you just used! Got me all tingly! And second, do you think you can make it here? What about the roads?".

Cody smiled and answered, "Mercedes told me that while some of the major roads and highways are closed, the minor back ones are still operational. It may take me some time, but I think I can get to your mother's place.".

Leshawna smirked wide and replied, "Well then, come on over! I think this place will be ready for you when you get here!".

The young man on the other line stated, "Thank you! As soon as I get an estimate on what time I will be there, I'll let you know via text.".

Leshawna remarked, "Sounds good to me! Well, I'll see you then, suga baby! Take care!". She closed the connection, glad that Cody was coming over & also liking the confident tone he used earlier. She did wonder how he sounded genuinely confident in a way she liked, but she put it int the back of her head for later.

Right now, she wanted to tell her folks on the good news!

Back with Cody, he looked up to see Mercedes smirking at him. He had a very faint blush on his face but he remained collected and cool. He smirked back at her and said, "The teacher has taught the student well. Heh. So, do you think we can make it to her mother's home?".

Mercedes answered, "It all depends on her location. Do you have the address?". Cody answered that he had it, going through the files on his phone. He had kept the address of Leshawna's mother home when the vase was delivered there, saving the info just in case. Once he got it, he showed it to Mercedes.

The redheaded buxom beauty took out her cell phone, looked up maps, and input the addresses of the home & the manor. In a few moments, she got several options on what roads to take to said destination. She looked to Cody and stated, "Her mother's home is normally an hour's drive there, but if we take this backroad from here, it will be an extra hour or so. And that is the shortest route using the current backroads that are still open.".

Cody nodded and said, "It'll have to do. I'll go back upstairs and change into something a bit more fitting. You get ready and have the limo ready.".

Mercedes nodded, Cody helping her clear the table and put up the dishes before both went to their living quarters to get ready.

While Mercedes and Cody got prepared at the manor, Leshawna went to her mother's living room to tell the news to them. The Dominica's had made some serious refurbishments to the home thanks to Leshawna giving them some money to fix the place up thanks to her new job as a wrestler.

The bootyful beauty saw her mother Coredelia sitting on the couch with her husband Jeshaiah, her two older brothers Rickey & Robert sitting in armchairs with her young sister by only one-year-old Summer. She exclaimed, "Hey everyone, we got to get this place ready! Cody is coming over here soon!".

Summer looked up from the chair she was sitting in the kitchen and remarked, "Cody? Do you mean that cute General Manager of yours? He's coming here?!".

Leshawna answered, "Yup! He asked if he could come! He wants to see us and know how you'll react when you saw me win in my match! Also, wants to see if the vase he got for us is still in good condition.".

Rickey got up and stated, "Well, what are we waiting for?! Let's get this place ready for this guy!".

His brother Robert got up and put in, "Yeah! Anyone that can help our little sister out has to be an okay guy! Not to mention being surrounded by such beauties as Triple B and Mighty Amazon!". While the two were supporters of their sister, they were fans of Lindsay and Eva.

Jeshaiah laughed and exclaimed, "Hahahahahahaha! Maybe he can give you two lessons on how to treat a lady to get one!". The brothers blushed, as they had a bit of a problem when it came to dating women. Sadly, sometimes they spoke before thinking, causing them to wind up with their foot in their mouths... and slaps to the cheeks.

His wife elbowed him in the side, telling him to stop teasing her boys. Summer put in, "I got to admit one thing. Besides being a skinny white boy, he is rather adorable. I can see why you and the other girls like him, Leshawna.". They didn't know that Cody was a bit more packed than one would believe since he was wearing clothing that hid his true frame.

But Leshawna knew as she was present during the times at the WWS-TKOA gym to see Cody work out. Like Taylor and Heather, she was surprised to see that the lad was not so lanky anymore. That he was lean with some muscles, showing that at least he could now defend himself well if need be.

The buxom woman said, "Yup! Now come on, ya'll! We got to get this place ready now!".

The family all got up to do their part to tidy the place up a little. As Leshawna went to straighten up her old room, which was still there even though she had her own home, the ebony beauty thought on the Anderson heir. She thought, 'That boy... no, MAN has done so much for me and my family already. I want to do something to show him how much I appreciate him... and I think I know how!'.

She started to plan now on how to show Cody her appreciation of what he did for her, the family, and more!
