Last time on Total Drama Preview; Chris and Chef actually manage to get the cast members of Total Drama Island (minus a certain rabid boy for obvious reasons) to watch the entire first season of Total Drama but with a twist. With the mysterious new guy keeping most from leaving and Chris bribing the rest they decided to stick around for a few episodes to see if it would be any good. Will they actually leave the viewing or will the drama filled action leave them wanting more? Will they regret it in the end? Find out now on Total…Drama…Preview!

Disclaimer; I do not own anything from TD nor from Naruto. I am simply using the story of What a Dramatic Life to make a nice little story with the author's permission.

Chapter 1 A


The cast was quite as the screen filled with life as a strange scene before them, one they were not expecting.


"My little Naru-chan…I want you to…listen to me…Okay?" A red-haired boy nodded with a sniffle as he looks up to redhead woman in bed, "Please protect your precious ones…Be kind to everyone you meet…and most important thing…I want you to promise me that…"


"What is this?" Heather cried out. "I thought we were going to be watching us?"

"Oh yeah I forgot to mention," Chris started sipping his drink, "Sometime flashbacks are shown like this one. No idea how or why but it seems awesome."

Heather grumbled as she went back to the screen.

"Naruto! Wake up, idiot!" He can feel someone shaking him roughly, "GET UP NOW!"

"Ugh, I'm up, I'm up." Naruto yawned before turning his head to his best friend, "Heat-chan, are we almost there?"

"Yeah…" There was a pause, "AND DON'T CALL ME HEAT-CHAN!"


"Was that Heather?" Gwen asked recognizing that voice that was shaking the newly dubbed Naruto.

"I think it was," Trent added.

Duncan chuckled as did several other guys, "Heat-chan?" the guys laughed loudly before Duncan got a drink thrown at his head. Heather scowled crossing her arms and sat down after her throw.

(The Total Drama Island)

At the dock, a man in his mid-thirty smiled at the camera with a grin, "Yo! We're coming at you live from Camp Wawankwa! I'm your host, Chris McLean." He paused to let it sink in before speak up, "Dropping season one of the hottest new reality show on television, right now!"

"Oh yeah that's one hot show, and it was the host that made it the hottest." The other made all sort of noises of disagreement at Chris's claim and even Chef shook his head.

Chris walks down the dock as if he was on a stroll, "Here's a deal, 23 campers have signed up to spend eight weeks right here at this crummy old summer camp." He halts his stroll in front of the camp sign, "They'll compete in challengers against each other than have to face the judgments of their fellow campers." Chris paused for a bit, "Every three days, one team will either win a reward or watch of their team member walk down the dock of shame and take a ride on the loser ship, never come back...Ever!" He grinned, gesturing at the dock.

"*cough*BS*cough*" Duncan coughed in his hand at that claim. The others nodded as they know some of the guest will be back.

(Campfire site)

"Their fate will be decided here at the dramatic campfire ceremonies," Chris thumbed at the campfire site, "Where all but one camper will receive a marshmallow." He grabbed a stick with marshmallow and take a bite before tosses it away, "In the end, only one will be left standing and will be rewarded with cheesy tabloid fame and a small fortune," Chris pulls a treasure crest out of nowhere before whispered to the camera with a light chuckle, "Let's face it, they will blow it off in a week or so."

(Dock)

Chris returned to the dock, "Every moment will be caught on one of hundreds of cameras situated all over the camp. Who will crumble under the pressure? Find out here right now on…" He takes a deep breath as he pointed at the camera with a grin, "TOTAL DRAMA ISLAND!"


Theme song


"What'd I miss?" Tyler asked as he sat back down. It turned out Heather threw his soda and he went back for another one.

"Nothing important," Noah stated as the song played out, "Just Chris talking before we even arrived."

The intern behind camera gave Chris a signal, "Welcome back to Total Drama Island." He beamed, "All right, it's time to meet our vic…cough, eh, I mean campers. We told them they'd all be staying at a five star resort," Chris chuckled, "So if they seem to be pissed off, that's probably why." As if it was on a cue, the ship just pulled up as Chris turn to face the first camper with his infamous grin, "What's up, Beth!"

The farmer girl suddenly tackles Chris with a squeal, causing him to give her a weird look, "It's so incredulous to meet you!" Beth blinked, "Wow, you're much shorter in real life."

Chris pouts angrily as the cast all laughed hard. "Oh I forgot I said that."

"Oh man," Justin gasped wiping a tear from his eye, "I wished I saw there to hear that."

"Uh…Thanks?" Chris muttered with raised eyebrow before glancing to see a giant Jamaican walking up to him with duffle bags and greeted him, "DJ."

"Yo, Chris McLean. How's it going?" DJ gave Chris a high five before glancing at the scene, "Hey, you sure you got the right place here? Where's the hot tub at?" DJ asked the host, only to hear him confirming that it was the right place, "Hmm…Look a lot different on form…" He muttered, carrying his bags to other side of dock while glancing around.

"Man we really got played," DJ muttered getting nods all around.

"Hey, Gwen." The Goth girl sighed.

"You mean we're staying here?" Gwen jerked her head at the rundown cabins.

Chris chuckled, "Oh, yeah! By the way, my crib is this trailer with A.C."

"Way to rub it in," Gwen muttered.

"Oh, oh, I love this part coming up," Chris said elbowing Chef's arm.

"I didn't sign up for that!" She growled.

"Actually, you did." Chris smirked, proudly presenting the contact before Gwen grabbed it and tore it in half, "…Good thing about lawyer is…that they make a lot of copies."

Chris and Chef laughed hard at this part but to the displeasure of the others.

Gwen growled again before picks up her bags. "I'm not staying here!"

"You sure? That mean you have to swim back since your boat just left." There was sound of boat honking as it left the island.

"Great…" Gwen muttered with sarcasm as another boat pull up with a cowboy in pink shirt doing some kind of dance before he flipped off the boat.

"Wassup, Chris. It's an honor to meet you, man!" The cowboy greeted with fist bump.

"Geoff-ster! Welcome to the island, man!"

Geoff grinned, "Thank, man!"

"If they say 'man' one more time, I'm gonna puke." Gwen whispered to DJ and Beth, earning some concern looks from them.

"Ha, ha, sorry," Geoff muttered looking sheepish and Gwen waved him off.

Chris looks at the dock again before introducing the new camper to other campers, "Everyone, that is Lindsay." The blonde bombshell waved to everyone with a smile, "Not too shabby, eh?" Chris whispered to the camera as Lindsay walk up to Chris.

"You look so familiar!" Lindsay pointed at Chris as he grins at her.

"I'm Chris McLean." She blinked and stares at him with quizzical expression on her face, "…The host of this show?"

"Ah Lindsay," Beth sighed before she turned to said friend, "Don't ever change."

"Not even my hair or clothes?" Lindsay asked getting eye rolls.

"Oh, that's where I know you from."

"Um…Yeah…" Chris blinked with dumbfounded expression on his face as he stares at Lindsay walk to the group before muttering something about not bright. He turns around to see two teenagers stepped on the dock, "Heather and Naruto. The queen bee and her childhood friend!"

"Wow, you two are friend," Owen said pointing to the new guy. "It must be nice to have someone you know come with you onto the island."

"Shut up Owen," Heather muttered eyeing Naruto slightly stunned that he was actually her childhood friend.

Heather scoffed as she shoves Chris out of her way, "This idiot is not my childhood friend!"

"Look like she's on a warpath, hehehe." Chris smirked as he turns to Naruto, looking over him.

He stand at 5'8 feet and wearing an orange t-shirt with red spiral on his chest and a blue jean over orange sneakers, which must be customized since Chris was sure that there was no orange sneakers to his knowledge but what make him stand out was his spiky shoulder-length crimson hair, azure blue eyes and three lines on his cheeks like whiskers. Chris noticed that there was some kind of necklace on his neck but it was hiding under his shirt.

"Yeah, it's how Heat-chan is, dattebayo." Naruto chuckled, rubbing his head as he pick up his orange duffle bags.

"Dude really loved the orange," Geoff said with a laugh.

"But it works for him though," Lindsay added with a smile, "maybe a bit more red and he would look perfect."

"Whoa whiskers look awesome," Izzy said with a grin. "It makes him look like a fox with those tattoos on his face."

Duncan scoff thinking the whiskers were a dumb idea for a tattoo.

'This guy must really love orange' was what everyone besides Heather thinking as they look at him.

"Hope you will be on same team because I would hate to see what would happens between you two." Chris snickered, 'which I plan to do, hehehe.'

Naruto blinks as he takes a glance at Chris before shrugging.

"I guess so." He walks up to the group, take a notice that the farmer ran up to Heather and spitting something to her, "Hajimemashite." Naruto gave everyone a widened grin.

"Huh?" Owen asked before Harold replied, "it's Japanese for…" he was stopped with some popcorn was dumped on his head by Duncan, "We don't need you to explain anything loser, let the new guy tell them."

"How do you know he will?" Harold asked.

"A hunch," Duncan muttered with an eye roll.

"Huh? Um…" DJ scratched his head, glancing at other campers. He was kind of grateful that he was not only one confusing about his greeting.

"Ah, I mean nice to meet you. Sorry, sometime my Japanese would slip up." Naruto chuckled.

"Oh, no worry, man." Geoff grinned at Naruto. The red-haired teenager was about to say something but a loud music cut him off as everyone look at the source to see a punk standing on top of the speaker before leap off the boat.

"And here's the real star," Duncan added with a grin.

"But I'm not there yet," Harold pointed out only to get hit by snacks from all around.

"Duncan, dude." Chris greeted the punk.

"I. Don't. Like. Surprises…" Duncan threatened with a scowl, palmed his fist.

"Yeah, your parole officer warned me about that, man." Chris chuckled, "He also told me to give him a holler anytime and have you send back to juvie."

Duncan shrugged, rolling his eyes, "Okay then." He picks up his bag and wink at Heather, "Meet you by the campfire, gorgeous."

"Ewww, I'll rather date the idiot." Heather thumbed at Naruto.

"Really, Heat-chan?" Naruto blinked at her.

"Wow so forward," Bridgette said with a laugh which had others laughing around her. Heather scowled at them as Leshawna added, "Boy would be eaten alive in a week under her care."

"No Heather!" Lindsay cried out, "Don't eat him! He's cute!"

"Idiot," Heather muttered to herself.

"Oh ye…HELL NO!" Heather snarled as Naruto chuckled at her, "I'm calling my parents now, Chris! You can't make me stay here!"

"Someone in denial~" sang Cody as he noticed the way Heather changed her mind fast. He coward though as Heather growled at him.

Chris grinned as he pull out the contact and wave it around, meaning that she can't leave any time until it's about elimination.

The ship shows up, pulling a skiing jock in red jumpsuit, "Ladies and gentlemen, Tyler!" The said jock waved to everyone with one hand but it caused him to have a wipeout and flew over the group's heads before landed into the suitcases. Everyone winced as they watch a suitcase flew into the air before splashing into the water, soaking Heather in process, "Wicked wipeout!" Chris shouted to the jock before Tyler gives a thumb up from under the piles.

Heather growled out, "there too!? You idiot ruined several of my shoes that day!"

"Hey, buddy, you alright?" Naruto pulled Tyler out, getting a nod and smile from the jock. The host chuckled at the slight of soaking Heather before a heavy breath cut him off, glancing right behind him to see a nerd with some kind of keyboard.

"Um…Welcome to camp, Harold." Chris grinned while thinking that he was creepy for breathing so hard on his neck, who would do that…beside some of his fan girls. Harold stares blankly at Chris. That nerd is really starting to creep him out.

"Um…what's he looking at?" Beth asked the campers, only to get shrugs and a few shivers. Chris hopes that Harold was not checking him out.

"I was not!" Harold cried out as the others laughed.

"You mean this show is at this crappy summer camp and not on some big stage?" Harold questioned Chris, a nod was his reply, "YES! That's more favorable to my mad skills."

"What skills?" Duncan asked laughing as Harold glared at him.

"…I hope one of his skills is not jerking off in random place…" Naruto muttered lowly, gaining some chuckle from the campers.

"Ewww," were cries all around by the girls and Harold blushed red as the boys laughed.

"And now contestant number ten, Trent!" The host nods to the musician.

"Wish it was nine," whispered Trent, "Hey, Chris, just saw you on that figure-skating show. Nice work."

Trent and Gwen glanced at each other and looked away. Trent was nervous as his counterpart already was showing his OCD.

"Thank! I knew I rock that show!" Chris boasted as they pound fists.

"I saw that." Beth inputted, "One of the guys dropped his partner on her head and they got immunity this week."

"Lucky! I wish I was dropped on my head." Harold said, earning a raised eyebrow from Naruto.

"Don't you have a plenty of these drops when you were a baby?" He smirked.

"Hey…" Harold sighed at Naruto before receiving a pat on back from the redhead.

"Sorry, Harold, I can't resist it."

"It's okay, I just walked into this one, I guess." Harold sighed again as Trent take his place next to Gwen before smile at her, causing the Goth girl to turn away from him.

"Yeah you did string bean," Leshawna said. Gwen and Trent smiled at one another recalling that day and how they acted back then.

"Hey what's up?" Naruto blinked before look up to see a surfer girl walk up to Chris with her board…Wait…Is that orange on her board?!

"All right! Our surfer chick, Bridgette, is here."

"Yeah, nice board…" Duncan scoffed, "It aren't Malibu, honey."

"I thought we were going to be at beach." Bridgette asked.

Chris points at the polluted beach with a grin, "We are!"

"Oh, poor seagull." Naruto stares at the seagull that somehow get stuck with plastic soda holders before the water pull the bird away from the beach.

"Not what I had in mind," Bridgette muttered a bit disappointed. She was not able to use her board at all the whole trip there.

"Great…" Bridgette seems to be disappointed after seeing the polluted beach before bend down to pick up her bag, unawake that she just hit the host in head with her board.

"Ow, darn it! That hurt!" Chris groaned, rubbing his sore head. 'I hope it doesn't bruise. My poor pretty face…'

"Man why couldn't I've seen that?" Chef asked getting a glare from Chris.

"Hi, I'm Geoff!" Geoff greeted Bridgette with eagerness in his tone as Bridgette turn to him, swinging the board. It was lucky that the boys duck under it.

"Watch the board!" Harold whined.

"Hi, I'm Beth!" The farmer waved as the campers ducks again.

"You really have an awesome board." Naruto chuckled, it was kind of fun to see everyone ducking under Bridgette's board and she never even noticed.

"Thank." Bridgette smiled, "I also like your dyed hair." Naruto blinked before rubbing his head with chuckle.

"Actually, it's my natural color…" As soon as he said that, everyone blinked before turn to him.

"Really?" Harold asked aloud "Isn't he, like, Asian though?"

He got shrugs all around as they were not sure how to answer that.

"Seriously? I never have ever seen an Asian with natural crimson hair." Gwen raised one of her eyebrows, DJ nods his head behind the Goth girl.

"It's true. He got it from his mother." Heather deadpanned. She is starting to get tired of telling people that Naruto's red hair is natural.

"Wow you really are his childhood friend," Beth said amazed that anyone would be friends with Heather and for so long.

"Girl's right," Leshawna said getting a glare from Heather, "Only a childhood peep can know something like that."

"Whatever," Heather muttered wishing they would finish already.

"Well, I still think it's awesome." Bridgette smirked at Naruto.

"I agree with her!" Lindsay waves her hand in air.

"Ok, now we met the surfer girl and confirmed Naruto's natural color…Can we please get on with the show!" Heather growled, squeezing the water out of her hair.

"Did someone miss their double cappuccino macchiato this morning?" Duncan smirked as Harold snickered.

"Yeah, she did. Kind of my fault…" Duncan slowly turns to Naruto with widened eyes.

"Seriously? I was joking...wow…"

"I'm liking this guy," Duncan said with a smirk and others nodded as well.

"…Idiot…Stop telling them things!" Heather growled, holding up her hands as if she wants to strangle someone's neck.

"Our…" The host winced as he touch his head, he just missed something that the campers was talking and he hope that someone got it on camera, what if it was a drama! "Our next camper is Noah."

"You got my memo about my allergies?" The bookworm asked the host.

"I'm sure someone did." He already got it but he tosses it in the trash can just before the show.

"I shouldn't be surprise," Noah muttered but thankful he got out early and didn't get anything to effect his allergies that he was sure he would have faced them later on.

"Wonderful…" Noah said sarcastically, "Is that where we will stay at?"

"No, it's your mother's place and we're throwing a party." Duncan palmed his fist. Unnoticed to everyone, Naruto was about to say something, only to end up getting slap upside the head by Heather.

Heather rolled her eye knowing the correctly dubbed by her idiot would've have gotten the sarcasm.

"Cute. Nice piercings, original. Did you do it yourself?" Noah deadpanned before Duncan grabs his lips with his hand.

"Yeah, you want one?"

"No thank…Can I have my lips back, please?" Duncan released him with a grin, "Thank…"

"What's up, y'all! Leshawna's in the house!" Everyone look up to see a black teenager waving at them and they can hear Harold gasping at her. "Hey baby, how you do?" She give Chris a high five, "Feel free to quit now and save yourselves troubles." She teased the campers as the campers chuckled at her jokes, "Give me some sugars, brother!" Leshawna raised her hand to DJ as he reply back with high five.

"I've never seen a girl like you in my life before!" Harold bubbled.

"Excuse me?"

"You're real big and loud!"

"What did you just said to me?"

"I'll get the shovel." Naruto whispered to Noah, the bookworm smirked as everyone winced at Leshawna yelling at Harold before Bridgette and DJ hold Leshawna back.

Leshawna laughed here as she forgave Harold for the stupid comment long ago but hearing Naruto with that was too much. "It wasn't that bad gosh," Harold muttered not seeing other shake their heads at him.

'Hehehe, we got a drama going on.' Chris chuckled, rubbing his hands. He can smell the paychecks coming in but he better stop them since they were going to waste the time and save drama for later. "SETTLE DOWN, CAMPERS! SAVE IT FOR LATER!" The host shouted at them, Leshawna huffed as she glared at Harold while fixing herself up.

Chris walks up to two new campers in matching clothes, "Ladies! Katie, Sadie! Welcome to your new home for eight weeks!"

"Oh, my gosh! Look! It's a summer camp!" Katie gushed to Sadie.

"I always wanted to go to summer camp!"

"EEEEEEEEEE!"

The cast covered their ears, even Katie and Sadie. "How are they so loud here?" Justin asked.

"What?" Owen shouted his question unable to hear.

Up at the top Chris and Chef snickered to one another, both wearing large headphones and Chris turned the volume down again.

"…Which one are Katie and Sadie?" Naruto asked Trent.

"…I'm not sure…" He responded with a shrug.

Both girls gasped looking at Trent who look sorry as he smiled nervously at them.

Chris rubbed his head before noticing the homeschooled farmer, "Ezekiel! What's up, man?"

"I think I see a bird, eh." Trent snickered as everyone look at Ezekiel with puzzled expression.

"I forgot how stupid he was," Eva muttered taking a bit from her popcorn.

"That would imply that he's gotten smarter," Noah pointed out to Eva.

The tough girl thought it over, "Good point," she admitted "But he better not make another sexist comment like last time."

"That's a sucker's bet right there," DJ whispered to Geoff.

"Oh totally," agreed the party dude.

"Um…Dude, I know you're homeschooled whole your life and don't get out much…but please don't say too much, okay?" Ezekiel nodded with smile. 'For the first time, I worry about a teenager.'

"That's just…um…wow?" Gwen shook her head, dumbfounded.

"Cody! The Code-ster!" Cody flashed his gap grin as they high-fived.

"Psyche to be here, man!" He strolls up to the female campers, "I see the ladies have already arrived." He winked at them and everyone rolled their eyes.

"Smooth move man," Geoff laughed and Cody shrugged knowing the teen was right.

Cody turns around to say something to Leshawna but the sassy girl placed her finger on his lips.

"Save it, short stuff." Cody grinned at her before taking his place.

"Eva! Nice to see you here!" The bodybuilder girl ignored her host and walk up to the camper with scowl. Cody decided to give her a high five, only to get her bag on his feet as he yelped.

"What's inside? Dumbbells?" He whined.

"Yes."

"…You really like to work out?" Naruto blinks, watching Cody hopping on one foot.

"Yes."

"…Woman of few words?"

"Yes."

Duncan glances to DJ, "She's all yours."

"No thanks," both DJ and Eva said causing the two to look at one another. "You're way too much of a softy and a momma's boy for my taste."

"Oh no problem," DJ admitted glad she was not offended by his comment, "You are way too tough for me anyways."

Eva grunted knowing it was true. Of course in her opinion a bunny would be too tough for DJ.

"WOOO-HOOOOO!" Everyone jumped at the booming voice and turn to see the large teenager, "Chris, what's happening, buddy!" He giggled to himself, "That is so awesome! WOO-HOOO!"

"Ahhh yeah!" Owen cheered pumping his fist, "Winner of season one right here!"

The others cheered having no hard feelings to the underdog as they imagine in season one. Owen did a little jig in his seat before he farted, much to the other's disgust.

"Good thing I have the vent working overtime," Chris muttered to Chef, "Imagine us staying in a toxic gas chamber that is Owen with no way out."

Chef nodded thankful as well.

"Owen, welcome!" The host greeted before he was grabbed into a bear hug.

"SO AWESOME TO BE HERE, MAN!" Owen tightened his hug, "Yeah, man, that is just so…" Owen paused, trying to figure out what to say.

"Awesome?" Gwen smiled at him.

"YES! Awesome! WOO-HOOO! Are you going to be on my team?"

"Oh, I sure hope so." Gwen muttered with sarcasm tone, rolling her eyes.

"WOOOOOOOOOO-HOOOOOOOOOOOOO!"

"…This guy is cool." Naruto grinned.

"Awww, thanks Naru," Owen said with a grin as other laughed at the new guy's nickname even if he wasn't real per-say.

"Are you almost done?" Chris stared at Owen before the large boy put him back on ground, "Just in time to see Courtney." He pointed at the ship with the said girl who was waving at the group.

"Thank you." Courtney take Chris's hand and step down before make her way to the group, "Hi, you must be the other contestants. It's really nice to meet you all."

"Nice to meet you, I'm Owen!" He grabbed Courtney's hand and shakes it in his excitement.

"It's also nice to meet you, O…wow…" She trailed out, dropping her jaw at the upcoming camper. Everyone was in awe because the camper was really handsome that he would pass as a supermodel.

"This is Justin." Chris introduced him to the group, "Just to let you know, we just pick you based on your look."

Justin smirked at him, "I can live with that."

Justin nodded actually happy for the reason he was picked. He wished he made it farther in the game but he did better in the next season. 'Wait if this is different, does it mean I went farther in TDI?'

"I like your pant!" Owen pointed at Justin's jean.

"Thanks."

"Because they look like they're all worn out. Did you buy them like that?"

"Um…No, just had them for a while."

"Oh…" Owen face palm, "Stupid…"

Owen blushed and laughed nervously, "Okay not my best moment there."

"Hey, everyone! Izzy!" Naruto blinks, she have orange hair…is it dyed or natural?

"Oh it natural," Izzy informed them, "Wanna see?" asked as she lifted her skirt slightly.

"NO!"

"Hi, Chris!" She waved before slipped off the ship and hit her chin on the dock.

"Ouch! That's bad wipeout!" Tyler laughed and Courtney ran up to her but Naruto beat her there and pick Izzy up.

"You're alright?" Naruto asked, watching Izzy shook her head.

"Yeah, that felt so good…besides hitting my chin."

"I'll say, maybe you'll get a bruise or not." Courtney said as Izzy grinned at them.

"So that is summer camp? Do you have papier-mâché here or lunch?"

"That is good call! We need lunch!" Owen perked at the mention of foods.

"You have great ideas Izzy," Owen grinned at her, "Half the time anyways."

"Really?" Izzy asked, "I just make them up as I go half the time."

"Explains a lot," Gwen whispers.

"First thing, we have to get a group photo for a promo." Chris chuckled, "Everyone on the end of this dock!" With that, the campers gather at the end of dock and take their positions, Naruto stand right next to Heather with good guy pose. The host leap on the ship with camera, "Okay, one…two…Whoops, forget the lens cap. Now hold that pose…Hang on, card filled!"

"Oh come on!" Leshawna muttered, "My face is starting to freeze."

"Everyone say, 'Wawanakwa'!"

"Wawanaka…WHOA!" Everyone cried out as the dock break down, sending them into the water, "Okay, guys, dry off and meet at the campfire pit in 10."

"You guys ever think he planned that on purpose?" Trent asked seeing the scene again from a different angle.

"I doubt it," Harold replied, "I mean, he would have to be, like, a master planner to see when the dock would fail at the right moment when we were standing there."

"Or I was stalling till the inters finish weakening the dock," Chris whispered to Chef getting a small cackle.

(Campfire)

"That is Camp Wawanakwa, your home for the next eight weeks." Chris waved at the scene, "The campers sitting around you will be your cabin mates, competition, and maybe even your friends." The campers glance at each other, "You dig? The camper who manages to stay on Total Drama Island the longest without getting vote off will win 100,000 bucks."

"Excuse me," Duncan smirked, "What will the sleeping arrangements will be, because I'd like to request a bunk under her?" He thumbed at Heather.

Heather gasped in disgust, "They're not co-ed, are they?"

"No." The host shook his head, "Girls get one side of each cabin and dudes get the other."

"Good thing since he's not your type." Naruto chuckled, ruffling Heather's head. The queen bee slapped his hand away, "Idiot, don't mess with my hair! We're on nationwide show!"

"Wow the more I see it the more I find it surprise how close you two are" Gwen said getting nods all around.

"What's that supposed to mean?" Heather asked annoyed.

"He mentions that he knows your type," Noah started listing with his fingers, "He ruffled your hair with minor punishment with a slap to the hand where you would kicked anyone else below the belt. Face it any more evidence and you could say you had a crush on him."

Heather screamed out with her hands in the air at that but no one paid any mind to it.

"Gomen, gomen." Naruto grinned, rubbing his head.

"Excuse me, Kyle?" Lindsay raised her hand, "Can I have a cabin with a lake view since I'm the prettiest?"

"Yeah but that's not really how it works here…" Chris sighed, "And it's Chris."

"But I have to be with Sadie or I'll die!"

"Yeah and I'll break out in hive! It's true!"

"That cannot be happening." Gwen groaned before Owen grabs her and Tyler in headlock, "Aw come on, guys. It'll be fun! Like sleepover!"

"I agree with big fella." Naruto chuckled, patting Owen's back, "Well beside the sleepover part…."

"But sleepovers are fun," Owen said with a slight pout…before he took another bite of his snacks and felt better.

"At least you don't have to sleep next to him," Tyler whispered to Gwen, nodding to Duncan holding a deer in headlock as he grinding his fist on the head.

"Hmm, originally I was going to split you in two teams but we have odd number of campers so guess what?" All of the campers shake their heads in synchronize, "We are going to have a challenge right now! One of you will get instant elimination, which would even up the numbers of campers!"

"WHAT!"

"WHAT!" was the same reaction before they all turned to a laughing Chris and Chef. "What the hell man!?" Duncan yelled.

"Yeah if the teams were uneven before the show went on why didn't you just bring someone else?" Heather asked.

"Too much effort," Chris replied, "But my guy is a genius. Why didn't I think of that!?"

"Cause you would need a brain to do that," muttered Heather as the others glared back at the screen.

Everyone cried before Courtney stands up with scowl, "But we just got here!"

"Too bad!" He singsong, "Now for our first challenge, it's going to be…" Chris pulls out a black ball behind his back, the competitors can see that there was some kind of timer on the top of the ball. "Paint bomb tag! The rules are similar…The person who hold this ball is the 'it'," He toss the ball up and down, "there will be no tag-backs, the new 'it' have to freeze for ten seconds, there are no safe zones…With me so far?" The host paused to make sure that everyone understands, "As you see, this ball have a timer, which is the exact number of time limit and it will exploded at the end and the loser will be cover in paint. The eliminated camper will have to walk down the dock of shame, no shower at all!"

Lindsay and Beth gasped in horror, "You wouldn't!"

"Oh I so would," Chris mention as he wrote something down. If the producers ever went with TDP then this would be the first challenge with uneven teams for the hell of it.

"No shower?" Beth gulped, that would be so humiliated to go out on the first day like that.

"So…Anyone want to be it?" Chris wiggled his eyebrows, "By the way, it is one hour time limit."

No one said anything unless someone speak up, "I'll do it!"

"Thank, Naruto. I'm glad that you step up." The ball soared over everyone's head and landed in the redhead's hands, "Push the button on the timer to start the game on my command…"

"Got it, dattebayo."

"What does that mean?" DJ asked, "he's been saying it a while now."

"It must be a complex Japanese code of some sort," Harold offered his knowledge. "Until I got for a translation or he tells up we cannot be sure."

"Ten bucks says he wrong," Duncan whispered to Geoff.

"Oh you're so on man" Geoff replied as they high fived one another.

"Get ready…" The campers scrambled, "Set…" Naruto smirked, his finger hover over the button, "TAG!"

Timer: One hour

"Can't wait to see someone gets a new coat of paint." Naruto laughed, walked off to find the hiding campers. He decided to check out the boathouse since it's close to the campfire, maybe some of campers would be there.

"Hey there me!" Tyler pointed out as his counterpart hide on screen.

(Tyler)

The jock was emptying the large box before diving into the box, placing the lid over his head, leaving a small gap. "The game is so mine." Tyler laughed, only to cut off as the lid lifted to reveal Naruto staring back at him.

"…"

"…"

"…"

"…H-H-How…"

"B-b-b-b-but," Tyler was in no better positon as he was stunned at being found so fast much to the other's amusement.

"Boathouse was close…that and you were laughing so loud…" Naruto handed the ball to Tyler before taking off, "Sorry buddy."

"It's cool, man." The jock sighed as he rubbing his chin, try to figure out which place to check out for any hiders.

Tyler groaned as the others laughed.

(Harold)

The nerd decided to take a refuge in a bathroom, using one of the stall. 'This is a perfect spot, no one would find me here.' Harold snickered to himself before the stall door opened, "ACK!" The person turns out to be Duncan and Harold was kind of relived that he doesn't have the ball with him.

Duncan smirked at him, "Well, well…That's not a bad spot, mind giving it to me?"

Harold crossed his arms with narrowed eyes, "No way, Duncan! Go find another place, gosh!"

The punk's smirk become a grin before he grab Harold's collar and pull him up close, nose to nose. "Want to reconsider it?" Duncan holds up his fist.

"Um…Yeah, hehehe." Harold chuckled nervously before Duncan toss him out of the stall, slamming the door on Harold's back. "Gosh, that was my spot in first place…" He sighed before run out of the bathroom to find another hiding spot.

"Yeah but it's mine now" Duncan said with a grin.

"You do know once he is tagged he will know exactly where you are hiding right?" Courtney asked him. "He'll tag you then."

"Pfft, he doesn't have the balls" Duncan replied.

Timer: 52 minutes

Tyler gulped as he glances at the timer, running up to one of the cabins. Early, he saw one of the campers rushed into the cabin before chose the boathouse and he hope that the camper was still there. As soon as the jock gets closer to the door, he tripped on the step and barreled into the door, slammed upon the floor.

"Ouch! That'll leave a mark!" Tyler groaned before look up to see concerning DJ, "Are you alright?" The giant asked, only to get a ball. He blinked once, twice, and third time before groaned, "Oh man…" The jock gets up with another groan before run off while shouting his apology to DJ.

"Sorry man," Tyler said to DJ who waved him off.

"Hey, why did Tyler take off?" Harold muttered, checking inside the cabin only to see DJ with ball. "Um…Never mind…" The nerd quickly disappeared before DJ has any chance to tag him.

(Izzy)

Izzy humming, swinging her legs as she scanned the ground from her seat in the tree. She blinked, notice a redhead, Naruto, start to climb up a tree in front of her. Izzy grabbed the vine and grinned before swing into his tree.

"Huh?" Naruto blinks as he felt something flew past his head before look up to see a hand reaching out to him and pull him up. "WHOA!"

"Hehehe, hiya!" Izzy giggled.

"O-O-Oh, Izzy, right?" The crazy girl nodded and Naruto grinned at her, "You scared me. Thank for the help."

"Cool I get to play with the new guy," Izzy giggled and the guys looked worried for some reason.

"No problem." Izzy stared at him, making him little uncomfortable. He rubbed his head for a while before Izzy speak up, "Are your whiskers tattoo or scar?"

"Oh, Nah. It's my birthmarks, something that my kaa…" Izzy's hand on his cheek cut him off, start to rubbing them and the result was something that makes Izzy more excited.

The teens blinked, "Did he just?" Trent asked with a finger up and the others nodded stunned.

"Oh no way," Duncan asked before he laughed harder pounding the seat in front of him, much to Harold's discomfort, "The dude purred!"

"He is a cat or something?" Leshawna asked but she had to keep her laughter down as they others either tried, failed or didn't bother at all.

"Ohh this look fun," Izzy giggled rubbing her hand together.

"You just…" Naruto swatted her hand away lightly with red face.

"NO, I DIDN'T PURR AT ALL!" He purred again before hold her back, "D-D-DON'T!"

She kept giggling and attempting to rub them again.

"Oh man," Duncan wheezed, "The chick will never leave him alone now."

(Duncan)

The punk scowled as he scanned the area, juggling the ball in his hand. The next time he see that dweeb, he'll give him a piece of his mind, meaning his fist. Somehow DJ managed to tag Harold after a while then this nerd just come back to his hiding spot and tagged him. It really took him aback, gave Harold a chance to run off before Duncan think of hit him.

"Ugh, that sucks…" He growled, tightening his grip on the ball.

Duncan blinked here as Harold looked smug, at least until Duncan smashed Harold's popcorn bucket on his own head. "Didn't have the balls huh?" Courtney asked with a smirk.

"So I've been wrong before."

Timer: 41 minutes

(Gwen)

Somewhere in the woods, Gwen was crouching inside a bush. She sighed before stiffen as she hear a sound of footsteps getting closing. 'Who would it be? It or…?' Slowly the Goth peek out and sighed, it was just this blonde girl, Lindsay if she recall. "Shall I just tell her that she kept running in a circle?" Gwen whispered to herself before shrugged, "Nah, I'm sure she would figure it out."

She was wrong and has to watch Lindsay run around for the rest of time.

Lindsay frowned slightly as the others laughed slightly. "At least I was safe," She muttered to herself and Beth comforted her.

(Duncan)

"See ya!" Duncan chuckled, walk away from the new it.

"Wonderful, I'm so happy that I'm it now." The bookworm shot back, glared at Duncan's back as he retreated to whatever he come from. Maybe he won't have decided to hide behind that boulder to read his book. Noah sighed before wandering around, taking his time and making plans in his head. If he decides to wait until the last minute and hand it to someone, this person will be out right away because of no tag-back rule and he have a lot of time to kill, according to the timer…After a another glance, correction, he have to find someone soon.

Timer: 29 minutes

"Oh you're cutting it close book worm," Heather said with a smirk. She knew no one would dare tag her.

(Cody and Trent)

The duo was hiding right behind the Arts and Crafts Center building and was chatting about music and what kind they enjoy.

"Really? Never pegged you for a fan of classical music. No offense, Cody."

"Yeah, it's okay. I really never understand why everyone would ever think that I'm into electronic music, it's not this good."

The two friends high five each other glad they still were friends here even early on.

(Heather)

The queen bee was filing her nails without any worries. She was sitting on top of the sink in the communal bathroom and glance at the door to make sure that it's still locked, what if someone have skill to pick a lock like Naruto always does when he pull some of pranks.

'Ugh, the idiot better not get himself kick off.' She blows her hair up, 'I need him for the alliance since he's more useful than anyone here.'

"Ohhh, girl you better not have the boy as your little slave saying it is an alliance," Leshawna said glaring at Heather as were Lindsay and Beth.

Heather scoffed, "Please if's he my friend I can do what I want to him. Besides why do you care?"

"The boy does not deserve you bossing him around," Leshawna replied with hand on her hips. "Besides he a nice guy. I hope you two are not on the same team."

She snapped out of her thought at the sound of doorknob jiggled.

"Hey, let me in!" Heather raised her eyebrow at the voice, it sound like that fatty before resuming her filing. "…Awwww…" Heather blinked, "I'm it now? But I'm so bad at it!" Oh, did that fatty get tag by someone? Oh well…

Outside the bathroom, Owen pouting as Noah pats his back.

"If it helps, I noticed some campers hiding over there in the main camp, where the cafeteria would be." Noah offered, feeling little bad for Owen since it seems that he is nice guy.

"…Thank, little buddy!" The loveable oaf give Noah a bear hug before rush toward the cafeteria.

Noah and some others winced knowing Owen's hugs can hurt. Owen at least had the decency to look sheepish, "Sorry little buddy."

"It's fine," Noah waved him off, "just try and not hug me as much."

Owen frowned slightly as he liked hugging people.

"Ugh…I think my ribs just cracked a little…" The bookworm groaned, Owen really don't know his strength at all...Noah rolls his eyes, again everyone on this island are living example of stereotype.

(Bridgette, Eva, Courtney, and Ezekiel)

The girls growled at Ezekiel as Eva grabbed Ezekiel's neck.

"Oh boy," Bridgette said as some of the girls frowned and Eva gritted her teeth, "we should have seen this coming."

"What did you just said?!" The reason why the girls were mad at Ezekiel right now is because he just made some sexist comment and it doesn't sit well with them. "Tell me what did you just said!"

"I just said that it's good that you have me protecting you since girls are weak, eh." Eva growled, "Pa said that I have to watch out for the girls since they need a lot of help, eh." Courtney joined Eva, "Plus, boys are smarter than girls so we have to help you a lot…"

"Well he's dead," Duncan said getting nods from everyone.

"Open mouth," Chris started with a grin as he watched, "Insert foot."

Bridgette growled as she open the door.

"Toss him out…" The surfer gritted her teeth and Eva smirked before throw him out, slamming the door as Ezekiel skidded on the ground before stop in front of someone's feet. Slowly, he looks up to see Owen with the ball.

"Um…Sorry…" The oaf chuckle nervously as he placed the ball in Ezekiel's hand before darting off as if a devil was chasing him…Why is he screaming? The homeschooled boy takes a good look at the timer and widened his eyes.

Timer: 10 seconds

"Wait doesn't he have to freeze when he's tagged?" Trent asked and the others remembered and nodded. They could not say they were upset at the outcome though.

Owen actually wiped his brow seeing how close he was to being kicked out.

A flashback went off in his head.


Chris tossed the ball up and down, "The new 'it' have to freeze for ten seconds…"


Suddenly everything was in slow motion…Ezekiel gulp slowly

9…

Owen kept screaming as he run.

8…

The girls in the cafeteria duck under the table…

Heather checks her nails for any dirt, ignoring the scream of the campers…

Chris takes a sip out of his coconut drink as he smiled, watching the scene unfolded with his binocular…

DJ peeked out of the cabin with Leshawna and Beth before duck back inside…

Gwen gives another sigh, feeling a little bad that she don't tell Lindsay that she was still running in circle.

3…

Ezekiel takes a deep breath…

"How big of a bomb do you think it might be?" Chris asked a chuckling Chef.

(Naruto)

"Hmm, did you hear it?" Geoff and Justin turn to Naruto with puzzling expression, "I swear it sound like someone screaming, did the paint bomb just…"

BOOOOOOOOOOOOOM!

They dropped their jaws, watching a huge pillar of multicolored paint shot up in air in the distance before it splash back.

"Man that was a blast," Duncan muttered as they all stared open mouth at the screen.

"Si Si, Boom!" Izzy cheered with a laugh.

"…"

"…"

"…"

"…"

"…"

"…AWESOME, DATTABAYO!" Naruto laughed, drawing their attention before joining him in laughter.

"I knew I like that kid," Izzy said still giddily.


"My, my…" Chris shakes his head, "Ezekiel, only if you don't say anything, you won't be out of the game but you just did." Ezekiel sighed, attempting to wipe the paint off his face.

"Service him right." Courtney muttered, crossing her arms in front.

"Now, since it is instant elimination challenge and you lost…that mean you have to take a walk down the dock of shame!"

"Can't I take a shower before I go, eh?"

"Ye….Noooooo." Chris drawled, "Don't want you to track paints all over my island and why would you waste a good coat." He snickered, earning another sigh from the prairie boy.

"Well that's still the same," Noah said as he listed off something in a note book since the first scene appeared.

(Dock of Shame)

Ezekiel sighed in dejection as he walk up to the boat and take his seat. Everyone watch the ship take off and disappear into the horizon.
