Okay I'm back from my little….breakdown, but that was nothing compared to last time on Total Drama Preview. Everyone got to know Kushina and Naruto a little better. She hasn't changed much since the last time I seen her. While we tried to understand what happen, we all got back to watching the campers make fools of themselves with Kushina and Naruto along for the ride. The campers watched themselves go through our game of 'Say Uncle' and it was painful to watch but fun all the same. With turtles, Sasquatch and bears, oh my. The challenge went by fast as campers all paid for it. Naruto helped his friend that wants to be more than friends in one challenge and Heather showed she can be tough by kicking a beast where it hurts. It came down to Naruto and Leshawna for the grand prize. Our sassy sister clearly wanted it more as it earned her the win. When eliminations came around Katie was sent home as everyone pity her as she missed her best friend and boyfriend. She didn't seem to mind though which meant no drama. Where's the fun in that. Before our episode finished we learned that the challenge was supposed to be thirty seconds and even harder dares. All I can say is…Why I didn't think of that! (Clears throat) But there are still more to see. What will the others see in this next episode? How will Kushina and Naruto react to some of the stuff happening to them and the others and will I ever be safe from Kushina's rage at a few certain events? Find out right 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.

Also a shout out to White fox16, who has been helping me with some of the grammar issues of this story. As I promised I have been updating weekly but that wouldn't be a problem if this was my only story but it isn't. While working on this I seem to realize that I have been neglecting my other work. So I decided that I would update this every Other week so I can work on my other stories. I will still make it on Friday or Saturday at most if something happens.


(Outside)

A few days went by and it was morning, Leshawna steps out of her trailer with a yawn, and sits down on her lounge chair before resting on her arms with a smile. She glances at the dock and smirking as Gwen blushing at Trent, this girl is so crushing on him with denial. Leshawna blinked, hearing something whistling in air before there was an explosive behind her, causing her eyes to widened and turn to see…nothing but burning remaining of her trailer. "What the fuck!" Leshawna shouted out of rage, she bet that Chris has something to do with it.

Said sister was glaring at Chris who was laughing his head off, "Oh, I wasn't aiming for that but I will take the results."

"Didn't you have to pay for that trailer?" Naruto asked his dad.

Chris blinked, "So that was what that cut came from? I thought I miss budget the show for my comfort."

"Arr, mateys, meet me at the amphitheater in five minutes." The host chuckled with his megaphone, "And I'll tell you about today's challenge."

"Oooh, this…" Leshawna mumbling under her breath as some campers come up to check on her.


(Stage)

Chris, in a pirate costume, smirked as he glances at the scowling sister stomping to the benches and sat down with crossed arms. "Well, my little, scallywags, have we got an adventure in store ye?" The host said before fixing his plastic parrot.

Naruto blinked, "What did he say dattebayo?"

Kushina however scoffed, "you and your pirate movies. The only thing you love as much as that was your western movies dattebane."

"Hey what can I say?" Chris shrugged, "They're classics."

"…Say what, I don't understand you, dattebayo?" Naruto scratched his head, "And what's under the sheet?"

"Too bad, laddie…" Chris glared at the redhead before glancing at the campers with a grin, "Who here has a hankering for a good old-fashioned treasure hunt?"

"Mmm." Gwen rolled her eyes and the host glared at her.

"You kids can be no fun," Chris muttered.

"Now this treasure hunt's got a twist, mateys." Chris chuckled, "What you're looking for isn't hidden, and isn't treasure."

"If there's no treasure, then what's with the eye patch and the plastic parrot?" Duncan said with raised eyebrow.

"He's been into too much cosplay," Kushina teased with a grin.

"I have not!" Chris cried as everyone either laughed or shivered at the imagine they gotten in their heads.

"Arr, shiver me timbers." The host said as he tossed the parrot away, "Good question, me boy…"

"Is the twist that we have to find the keys for the treasures, dattebayo?" Naruto raised his hand in air.

Chris blinked no longer glaring at a smirking Kushina and turned to Naruto, "How did he know that?"

"How did you know?" Chris blinked as some campers glanced at the redhead, how did he get it right?

Chef chuckled at his boss, "Seems like you two are legit,"

"Shut up,"

"Um…" The redhead rubbed his head, "Lucky guess?"

"…Well…He's right…" Chris cleared his throat after Chef yanked the sheet away to reveal the chests, "Inside each of these chests is a treasure that will pamper you, landlubbers, and one of these chests will even give you invincibility. Ha-har!" The host laughed as the cooker grabs the bucket. "Now come round and pull a clue out of this bucket or you'll have to walk the prank."


(Confession)

"Someone watch one too many pirates movie or whatever..." Gwen deadpanned.


"Tell me about it dattebane," Kushina said rolling her eyes, "He had a large collecting of pirate movies and western movies when we were teens."

"He still has them," Chef added, "Probably made them bigger. Not a bad selection though."

"These clues will tell ye, where your key be stowed." Chris grinned as the campers pick out their clues from the bucket and glanced at them.

"Um…Bear?" Owen gulped, glancing at the image of bear on his chosen clue before the host appeared at his side with a grin.

"I was hoping you'd get that one, dude."

Owen gulped recalling how bad he did with the bear in question. "Maybe Naru will help me out?"

"Oh I hope not," Chris added, "more fun that way."

Chris shifted his attention to Heather's clue, "Chef's fridge, nice! I hear he brushes it daily for fingerprints."

"Because someone here has been raiding my fridge for weeks!" Chef grunted, never noticing the fact that Owen was whistling innocently with shifty eyes.

Chef growled as Owen whistled as well, "You are lucky we are not in any new seasons. Otherwise I would make you and all of you annoying maggots pay for everything."

"Here's hoping for a new season," Chris whispered to Kushina "With Chef help it should be a nice and fun for us. Maybe Naruto could join in as well?"

Kushina shrugged not sure how she felt with Naruto being on the show. One reason was of how strange it would be to see her baby with Chris after being broken up for so long.

The host peeks over Duncan's shoulder and give him a wide grin after saw the punk's clue. "That there is the septic tank for the washrooms."

"Meh, I can live with that." Duncan muttered with a shrug, nothing can be worse than the juvie's sewer that he used to sneak out of the juvie few times.

"Tough luck bro," Geoff said with a wince, "Not the best place to go through."

Duncan shrugged, "meh, it can't be bad as the juvie sewers I had to go through."

"Ooh, look like Naruto is lucky!" Chris chuckled as he takes a glance at Naruto's clue, "All he has to do is just taking the key from flaming hoop!"

"Lucky bastard," Duncan muttered before glancing up at the boy's mother hoping she did not hear as he was not sure if she would take offense to that or not.

"Sounds like fun dattebayo," Naruto said with a small grin.

"Awesome, dattebayo." The redhead chuckled and Heather growled, she really wishes that she have his devil's luck…How the hell can she get the key when Chef is guarding his own fridge?

"You don't," Chef said. "I still can't figure out how you did that anyways. Now I get to see."

"All you scallywags," Chris speak up after checking every camper's clues, "Go find your keys and bring them back by 6 pm…Eastern Standard Time…to open up the chest and get your loot. Fair thee well, young scallywags." He grinned at them with a wave before scowling at the confusing campers, "Get to it!"


(Confession)

"I don't know who came up with these lame-o challenges…" Heather said with narrowed eyes, "And memo to Chris, these pirates tights do not exactly flatter your legs, savvy?"

"She's right you know," Kushina said to Chris.

"She's just jealous that I can pull them off better than her."

*Static*

"Whoo-hoo!" Owen hollered with fist pump, "I am all about the treasure hunt." His attitude just flipped from excitement to nervous as he poked his index fingers together, "The bears are a little concerning…But there's treasure!"

"Don't worry Owen," Naruto said with a smile, "I'm sure you can handle it dattebayo."

Owen smiled back, "Thanks Naru."

*Static*

"Let's see…S…S…" Naruto mumbled, flipping through a 'Pirate-to-English Directory' book.

"Forget it honey," Kushina said with a small laugh "It's not worth trying to figure out what your father is saying."

"But learning the pirate lingo is an important skill," Chris countered as a small attempt at a defense.


(Campfire)

Naruto smirked, stretching his legs as he stares at the flaming hoop with hanging key and ran up to it before flipping in air and grabbed the key at ease. "Too easy, dattebayo." The redhead chuckled, juggling his key.

Duncan shrugged, "Knew you had it down Whiskers, did it better than how I did."

"Naruto's experience seems to be helping him with his challenge." Chris' voice announced from the loudspeaker.

"Hey, bro." Trent called out, catching Naruto's attention as he turns to see the musician walk up to him with a smile. "I'm supposes to get the key from the lake but there are sharks around and since you fed them regularly, what do they usually eat?"

"Oh, just some raw meats…Fishes are their favorite, dattebayo." The redhead grinned.

"Thank, I owe you one." Trent chuckled, walking off with a wave as Naruto nodded at him.

"Thanks man," Trent said to which Naruto nodded.

"Didn't you figured that out on your own?" Gwen asked not looking forward to this challenge knowing what was going to happen.

Trent nodded, "Yeah but it took me a half hour before I came up with that plan. My guy just might have it easier now."


(Main Lodge)

Heather nervously walks into the kitchen, her eyes scanning for Chef and slowly opening the fridge before turns her head to see the glaring cooker with the cleaver in his hand inside.

"Nice try maggot!"

"…"

"…"

"…" The queen bee slowly closed the door and just walks away with frightened expression on her face.

"That's right, walk away."

"You are really getting into this challenge dattebane."


(Outside)

"Idiot, I need your help." Heather muttered, walking with Lindsay at her side with the rope.

"Sure, I can see that Chef is giving you a hard time, dattebayo." Naruto chuckled and the queen bee scowling at him.

"You don't have to say it like that," Heather mutters as several campers laughed.

"Sorry Heat-chan"

"Yeah…Listen, here's my plan…" Heather said with crossed arms.


(Main Lodge)

Chef polished his chainsaw as he kept taking glances at everything, no punk is going to touch his fridge and get away with it. "Hey, Chef." The cook look up to see Naruto walk in with a grin and sighed at the redhead.

"What do you want, brat? It's not suppertime yet."

"Well…" Naruto scratched his head, "I'm kind of curious if you can tell me a couple of war stories…"

"Why?" Chef raised one of his eyebrows.

"Brat!" Chef cried having figure it out. "How could you!?"

Naruto shrugged, "Just helping a friend out dattebayo. But I would listen to the stories anyways. They must be interesting."

Chef scowled slightly, "You're lucky I like you brat. I may just shares some stories later."

"Really?" Naruto asked with a grin, "That's great."

"Because my challenge was too easy and I'm bored now, everyone is busy, dattebayo." The cook stares at the redhead for a while before shrugged his shoulders.

"Sure…There was a mission that my unit took…" Chef started to rambles on, not even noticing Heather slowly lowered down on a rope from a hole in ceiling. The queen bee slowly tiptoed to the fridge, open it without making a noise before taking the key and returning to the rope.

Chef grumbled to himself seeing how he was tricked not once but twice like that. At least he felt better knowing Naruto had a hand tricking his counterpart.

"The enemy screamed like this…" Chef acted out with a screams, which covered up Lindsay's screaming as Heather dropped her key and she gasped silently before flipping upside down to catch the key.

"Nice catch," Cody could not help but say.

Eva grunted, "Like that is anything special."

"Whoa, that's awesome, dattebayo." Naruto grinned, the queen bee doesn't know if it was either directed to her or the psycho cook's story as Lindsay slowly pull her out of the kitchen.


(Woods)

Gwen smirks as she pulled the key out from the skunk's hole after flushing out the skunk with water, with Trent's help. She stood up and before Trent knew it, Gwen kissed him.

The room was filled with "Aww," from several of the girls. Kushina smiled down at the blushing teens, "Congratulations you two."

"Thanks Kushina," Gwen said before she rubbed her arms, "But we're not really together anymore."

"All the same it was a cute scene." Kushina said before she turned to Chris with a small glare, "You better not have done anything to wreck this."

Chris gulped, "This time I didn't do anything." 'With Heather there I didn't need to,'

They both never saw a scowling Heather and confused Lindsay hide behind the bushes as they stopped kissing and walk away together with smiles.


(Confession)

"That's just too much!" Heather snarled with tightened fists, "Everyone knows that boyfriend-girlfriend is just another way to say alliance." She crossed her arms, "And the only alliance on this island is me and idi…I mean…Um…" The queen bee stuttered.

"I don't think being in a relationship has anything to do with an alliance," Naruto said to Heather missing a certain detail.

Some of the others looked at him amazed, 'How did he miss what she almost said?'


Somewhere in the forest, DJ hugged the branch with a shiver as he look at the hanging key with chattering teeth. "Why me…" The giant whined.


(Bathroom)

Duncan stares at the toilet and shrugged to himself before the punk tossed a cherry bomb in the toilet. He took a few steps back before the toilet blow up, knocking up the dust and it took a few seconds until it cleared up to revealing a large gaping hole. Duncan chuckled, jumped inside and crawled toward the septic tank.

Geoff shrugged, "Better than how I did it. Though I think whoever has to repair the bathroom will not be happy dude."

"Like I care,"


(Cave)

"Crap!" Owen gulped as the sleeping bear cuddled with him like if he was just a teddy bear.

"It's okay," Naruto said, "he shouldn't hurt you even like that. At worst he might drool on your head."


(Woods)

Naruto covered his yawning mouth, Chef told him to beat it after sharing a few stories so he decided to take a stroll in the forest. "Whisker time!" The redhead paled and before he could react, the familiar hands rubbed his cheek with furious speed.

Naruto pitied his counterpart though he did not noticed someone slowly rising up from the seat behind him until it was too late. "Whisker time!"

Naruto had no time to react as Izzy rubbed his cheeks with a crazy giggle. Heather growled before she grabbed the crazy girl and threw her into Owen, "Beat it!"

Kushina covered her mouth with one hand as she giggled. Next to her Chris raised a brow, "You aren't upset that she keeps molesting Naruto's face?"

Kushina shook her head, "She's not doing anything bad. Besides I did that all time when Naruto was a baby as did Mee-Yoo."

"Who?" Chris asked.

"Heather's mother,"

"O-O-O-Ooooooooooooo!" Naruto purred and Izzy giggled at his face before the redhead stopped her hands with blush. "S-S-Sto…" Naruto blinked at the crazy girl, "…Is that a snake on you?"

"Yet! He's really cute and feisty." Izzy giggled as the snake bit her head again, earning a sigh from the redhead. "I miss you so much…You and your whiskers!" The crazy girl grinned widely and Naruto scratched his head with blush on his face.

"Y-Yeah, I figure that much when you just rubbed my whiskers too long…W-W-Wait!" Naruto cried out, attempting to dodge Izzy's outreaching hands.

Izzy glanced at Naruto who was blushing but Heather made sure she was between the two, glaring at Izzy.


(Dock)

"Okay, we've got to break up Trent and Gwen." Heather growled, watching on as Lindsay pulls herself out of the water with bee stings all over her body. "Here's the plan…I need you to go…" The queen bee blinked, "What happened to you?"

"Izzy tried to help…Bee stinging…Terror…Lost key…" Lindsay sobbed, the crazy girl helped her by taking the key from the beehive but somehow the bees went after the bombshell for no reason and chased her off the dock. To make it worse, she lost her key somewhere.

"Ohh, tough luck," Chris said, "That key had not only a nice supply of skin care products and lotions but more of that pop in Heather's reward basket."

"NOOOOO!" Lindsay cried in horror realizing what she missed.

"Why did you have more of that stuff?" Chef whispered to Chris.

"They were a sponsor," Chris explained, "We got a great deal with them adding products to the show and no one was none the wiser why."

"Uh…Yeah…" Heather mumbled, "Now here's the plan. First I need you to write a letter to Gwen then after this, you have to find Trent and lead him to me, watch for Gwen, and give me the signal."

"You can count on me." Lindsay said with another wince.

Lindsay winced again though for a different reason, "Sorry Ginny,"

Gwen waved her off, "It's fine. I can't blame you." She did glare at Heather however "You on the other hand…"


(Cave)

"CRAP!" Owen paled as the sleeping bear placed his opening mouth over the oaf's head.

"Wow," Naruto said "he must have been having a nice dream dattebayo."

"That and I smell like food half the time," Owen added "It might have confused the bear."


(Woods)

Bridgette smiled at a cute rabbit, the creature was guarding the key and the surfer took a few steps before the rabbit roared with fangs. Bridgette screamed as she climbed the tree to get away from the scary rabbit. 'Since when did rabbits have fangs?' The surfer girl whined in her head, glancing at the rabbit hopping around the key.

"I love that thing," Chris muttered. He didn't understand why it had fangs either but he didn't care as it brought nice ratings.


(Dock)

Heather tapping her foot on the dock with crossed arms and checked her watch. "Where is she? I knew I couldn't count on her." She snarled before noticing Lindsay bringing Trent and the queen bee turns around to get ready for her act.

"I just don't know what's up with Heather." Lindsay told the musician as she gesturing at crying Heather, "Maybe you should go talk to her." Trent nodded his head and walk toward the queen bee.

"Heat-chan?" Naruto asked concern for his friend, "What's going on?"

"Just showing her true colors," Gwen said angrily

"Heather, what's wrong?" The musician asked.

"Nothing…" Heather sniffled and turns around, "Well, I don't wanna sound like a sucker or anything but Gwen just been so mean to me and I just don't get why." She throws herself on Trent, "I-I don't think I can go on…" Heather pushes him away and sobbing on the dock post.

"Gwen's just kind of a hard girl to get to know, that's all. Don't take it personally." Trent said as he patting her shoulder, wondering why she doesn't go to Naruto and guess maybe it's something that she doesn't want the redhead to know about her problem.

Naruto looked at Heather concern but the girl did not meet him in the eyes.

Heather hugged the musician with another sob, "I'm just so surprised to hear you supporting her, you know? After all the horrible things that she says about you and…oops!"

"What!" Trent gasped with widened eyes as he pushes her back, "What do you mean?"

"I...I feel so terrible telling you this. I-I promised I wouldn't say a word…but…You should know that Gwen confided in the girls last week that she can't really stand you and thinks you're a total cliché, your music sucks, and she's only stringing you along to get further in the game."

Trent winced hearing this again "I can't believe I fell for that."

"Like I said, this is when Heather shows her true colors," Gwen repeated. She hated seeing this from Trent side but at least it was an eye opener.

"B-B-But…" Trent stuttered, "I thought me and Gwen had a real connection."

"Gwen is just playing you for your vote." Heather said as she buried her face in hands, "She played us all, and you're just so nice that I can't watch you fall for it anymore."

"Sorry Gwen" Trent said, "I was a fool. I should have known you would never do anything like that."

"And I may have been stubborn not getting your side of things," Gwen added. They may have made up years ago but this shows how much this hurt them.

"Wow…" The musician sighed, "And all this time I thought she liked me…she really said my music sucks?"

Heather nodded her head and she heard the bird call from Lindsay before take a hold on Trent's face. "Maybe Gwen thinks your music sucks, but I think you're really talented."

The musician was about to say something but the queen bee covered his mouth with her hand before she kiss the back of her hand, causing him to blinks at her. Heather peeked out of the corner of her eyes to see Gwen gasped at them with teary eyes. From the view of the goth girl, it look like Trent was kissing the queen bee with his arms around her and dropped her love letter as she ran off with silent sob. Heather pushed the musician away before walk away from him with a smirk and glanced back to see Trent screaming on the beach. 'Excellent.'

Both Uzumaki's were surprised at what Heather just done and turned to look at her. "I'm surprised Heather," Kushina said as the girl still didn't look at them. "Why did you do that dattebane?"

Heather didn't answer not that anyone else expected her to answer.


(Cave)

"Infinity crap…" Owen whined as the bear wake up with angry glare.

"Oooh," Naruto said wincing, "Sorry buddy, most bears are real cranky when they wake up from their naps."

"How do you know?" Heather asked.

"I seen a lot of workers in the circus get slapped around or thrown when they wake the bears up dattebayo."


(Woods)

"Oh, what happened to you guys, dattebayo?" Naruto gasped at the beaten and injured crocodiles. One of them whimpered to him and the redhead blinked at them before pulls out a bandage wraps. "Well, just let me patch you up."

"Sorry that was me," Leshawna admitted, "They were trying to stop me and my key."


(Bathroom)

Duncan grunted as he crawled out of the hole with key, he was wrong…it's worse than the juvie sewer. "Duncan!" The punk blinked as he looks up to see Leshawna, "We need you in alliance so we can vote either Trent or Heather out!"

"Huh? Why?" Duncan frowned.

"Trent just cheated on Gwen." The sister growled, "And to make it worse, it was Heather."

"…Are you going to tell the others?" The punk scowled and Leshawna nodded.

"Yes, I'm going to get everyone in the alliance."

"…Wait, just tell Naruto to vote Trent out."

"Why?" Harold asked. "Isn't he, like, another camper to be in this alliance?"

"You forget Naruto's connection with Heather," Courtney reminded him, "He isn't about to vote off his best friend."

"He'll have to sooner or later." Harold said but the others didn't think so.

Duncan said and the sassy girl blinked before give him a nod, it's better to not tell Naruto about Heather since they're close and everyone knows that the redhead would never vote against his friends until otherwise.


(Woods)

"All right, campers, meet me at the campfire in ten and bring your keys." Chris' voice squeaked out of the loudspeaker.

"Well, I'm off then." Naruto grinned at his crocodile friends and turns around to see Leshawna run up to him. "What's up, Leshawna." The sassy girl leans in and whispered in his ear as the redhead's eyes widened before frowned.


(Confession)

"I can't believe that Trent cheated on Gwen." Naruto growled, "She really doesn't deserve that!" He crossed his arms with narrowed eyes, "Trent is now on my revenge-prank list."

Trent gulped feeling nervous all of the sudden. Heather even felt sorry for the teen. She seen the result of those on his list and the result wasn't pretty. 'If Naruto does the corncob prank then Trent will really have my pity.'

*Static*

"I did my bit." Leshawna sneered, "I've told everyone who listened about those two-timers…Well I only told Naruto about Trent…Either way, one of them is history."


(Campfire)

The group stands away from Duncan, covering their noses and the punk rolled his eyes, why does everyone keep overreacting over a little smell? "Hey guys…Whoa, what stinks?" Izzy said as she joined the group and they blinked at the snake on her head.

"Um…Izzy, you've got a snake on your head." DJ gulped, stepping away from her.

"I know, but don't worry, he's friendly." Izzy giggled before the snake bit her and the campers gasped. "See? Kisses." The crazy girl grinned before fainted from the bite.

"How did you get away with a poisonous snake biting a camper in the head dattebane?" Kushina asked.

"Actually it is not the 'deadly' venomous kind of snake." Chris explained, "The producers wouldn't let me have any of the good ones so I got a snake whose venom simply makes a person sick and knocks them out."

"Yar, it be time to claim your treasure." Chris chuckled as the campers check on Izzy, "Who's fortunate enough to bear a precious key, come forth with it." Duncan grinned before walk up to one of the chest and unlocked it.

The punk opened the chest and blinked as he picks up new cologne. "Is this the best you can do?" Duncan glared at the smirking host.

"It's called irony," Chris said with a grin, "You and Geoff going into a massive stink tank and get cologne to cover some of the smell, Lindsay would've gotten skin products to help with the bees and some got nothing but my own amusement. And the most dangerous one, aka Chef, got the biggest reward."

"My key won't open any chests." Owen said and the campers blinked at him since he was halfway out of the bear's mouth.

"Oh yeah…" Chris laughed, "I forget to mention that some of keys don't open up any chests."

"Oh come on!" Owen whined before jabbed his thumb at the bear, "Can you at least do something about him?" Two tranquilizer shots hit the bear but one of them hit the oaf before they dropped to the ground.

Kushina eyed Chris, who noticed and looked a bit nervous, "Did you really have to shot the boy?"

"He was a big target," he replied nervously. He gulped seeing her eyes narrowed, "And it was to keep him from panicking when we pulled him out of the bear's mouth."

"Right," Kushina muttered with narrow eyes not believing him.

Chef chuckled at the scared host before he muttered, "Whipped."

"I got some candy and chips, dattebayo." Naruto chuckled, "Not bad."

"Oh, and look, an invincibility pass. Lucky me." Heather smirked, waving her prize around and some campers frowned at her.

"She got really lucky there," Leshawna said with a glare.

"All skill," Heather 'corrected'. "I won several invincibility's here and you know it was not all luck."

Her good mood was ruined however when Naruto reached over and ruffled her hair "Nice work Heat-chan."

She slapped his hand away, "Stop that idiot!"

"That's great, Heat-chan. No wonder why Chef was really fixed on the fridge, dattebayo." Naruto smiled as he ruffled her head before the queen bee swatted his hand away with light blush. Trent smiled as he pulls out soda bottles and shows them to the campers, only to have them glance away from him.

"Sorry about the cold shoulder treatment there Trent," DJ said seeing how confused the teen on the screen was. "But at the time…you know."

Trent waved him off with a small smile, "Forget it. It's all cool."

"I hope everyone got their treasure they were looking for…and more." Chris said after seeing that all the campers tried their keys and only DJ and Bridgette didn't get their treasures. "But now it's your time to do your duty and send one of you off the island for good. So cast your votes, and I'll see ye buccaneers back at the campfire after the sundown. Arr, ha-arr!"


(Confession)

"Looks like Trent is going down." Leshawna said with a snap of fingers.

*Static*

"Trent…" Owen said dazed before fall down on the filthy floor.

*Static*

"You messed up, dude!" Duncan pointed at the camera with scowl.

"More like you all messed up," Harold said crossing his arms. "If I was still there I would have stop the plot before it could even happen."

"Really?" Naruto asked.

Harold was about to speak again before he was hit in the head by a soda from behind. "Quite Maggot! Stop lying!" Chef paused before glancing at Kushina, "Nice shot by the way."

"Thanks dattebane."

"That was my soda," Chris wined.

"You can get another one," Kushina added with a deadpan look.

*Static*

"I'm going to make you fear the corncob." Naruto juggled the corncob in his hand.

*Static*

Heather now winced, "Okay now you're doomed."

"What?" Trent asked.

"You do not want to be at the end of that prank." Heather explained.

Naruto rubbed the back of his head, "Don't worry though. Now that I know you didn't hurt Gwen on purpose I won't do something like that to you."

"Thanks man." Trent said before he leaned over and whispered, "Why do I feel like a dodge a sniper bullet?"

"Maybe it was," Duncan said eyeing Naruto "From Heather's reaction it must have been something big."

"You leave us no choice." Bridgette shrugged.

*Static*

"I really feel like I made such awesome friends here and it's hard for me to vote anyone off." Trent smiled.

Trent sighed happy to know that he did try and his friends were simply tricked and weren't against him.

*Static*

"I'm really getting into this game." Heather checked her nails with a smirk, "I can play these losers like a violin."

*Static*

"FEAR THE CORNCOB!" Chef shivered.

"What?" almost everyone asked seeing Chef act this way.

"What the hell?"

"Oh Naruto must have told you about it corncob prank." Kushina explained with a giggle, "It is such a cute little prank he made to embarrass anyone dattebane."

"Cute is not a word I would describe it," Heather muttered.

"If you want I can explain it later," Naruto said with a grin.

Chef looked at himself on the screen before shrugging. It can't be that bad. His counterpart must be over reacting.

"…Chef, why are you inside?" Chris' voice speak from outside.

"BEWARE THE CORNCOB!"

"Um…I'll leave you here…alone…" What the host didn't know that Naruto just told the cook about the infamous corncob prank when they were swapping stories.


(Campfire)

"And now the moment we've all waited for, the moment of truth." Chris said with arms behind his back, "Marshmallow time! You know the routine, whoever doesn't get a marshmallow, it's curtains for you!" Most of the campers glared at oblivious Trent as the host tossed the marshmallow, "Gwen…"

"I'm outtie." The said Goth girl catch her marshmallow and walk away from the campfire dejectedly, she can't stand being around this cheater.

"That's new," Gwen muttered. She did not recall leaving after she got her marshmallow.

"Yeah" Noah agreed getting his notebook out again. He wondered what else was going to change here.

Some campers look at her with concern and Chris shrugged his shoulders before calling out their names.

"Izzy, Duncan, Leshawna, Lindsay, Bridgette, Naruto…" The redhead stood up and walks away as some campers raised their eyebrows at him but Chris just continued his announcement. "DJ, Owen. Marshmallows for the lot of you." Trent blinked, noticing that he was only one that doesn't get a marshmallow and released a gasp. "Sorry, dude, you're out."

"That's right, take your two-timer ways back to where you come from." Leshawna chuckled at the musician.

"What?" Trent gripped his chest, "But I thought I was getting along so well with everybody."

"I guess you were wrong." Heather smirked.

"You just don't care about your man?" The sassy girl snarled.

Heather scoffed, "Like I would ever date him."

"Hai, she's right." Naruto added with a chuckle, "He's not her type."

"She has a type?" Harold asked Naruto.

Heather stiffen before she covered Naruto's mouth before he could answer, "Shut up idiot!"

"Just playing the game." The queen bee waved it away.

"What's going on?" Trent asked with hands on his head.

"Quit acting, man!" DJ crossed his arms with frown.

"Yeah, you cheated on Gwen with Heather!" Leshawna yelled.

"What!" The musician yelled, "Where did you get this from?"

"From Gwen, she saw you kissing her!" The sassy girl pointed at the queen bee.

"But we never did kiss at all! She just covered my mouth with her hand and did this." Trent said as he kissed the back of his hand.

"Wait what?" Trent asked.

"Let me guess," Gwen said looking at him, "That's not what happen?"

"Yeah," Trent said, "She just kissed me. Not hand covering, no blocking."

'That's does not make me feel better,' Gwen thought with a scowl.

"Pfft, like the hell I'm going to kiss this John Lennon wannabe." Heather scoffed, "I'm not going to throw my first kiss away."

Heather huffed, "Like she said. I would never give my first kiss away for something like this."

"So that wasn't your first kiss?" Trent asked.

Heather glared at him. Courtney however asked, "Then, who was your first kiss to?"

She glanced at Naruto while asked this and several other campers look at the boy. Said boy was thinking trying to recall something before he snapped his fingers, "Oh that's right. I remember who got your first kiss. It was-" he was stopped by Heather grabbing his mouth and keeping him from talking. She nearly froze hearing Naruto blab about what happen and she did NOT want anyone else to know about it.

"Shut up Idiot! You are not going to be telling anyone about that!"

"Who was it?" Harold asked but took for cover by Heather's glare.

Kushina however giggled seeing Heather's reaction. 'Even if Heather doesn't think so, Mee-Yoo and I thought it was very cute even if you might have over reacted a bit.'

"Wait, that means…" Leshawna widened her eyes with the campers.

"I got to tell Gwen!" The musician shouted before Chris shoves him into Chef's arms with a grin.

"Enough of this, you have an appointment at the dock of shame and Chef is dying to take you out for a lovely ride!"

"Wait!" Trent cried out as Chef tossed him over his shoulder like a sack of potatoes and carried him to the dock of shame.

"I got me a pretty boy." The cooker joked with a chuckle.

"True you did," Kushina nodded causing said pretty boy to blush at this while Chris frowned slightly.

"Oh, you do, you do." Chris snickered as the campers turn around and glared at smug queen bee.


(Woods)

Gwen stifled a sob as she curled up in ball, leaning against the tree and she doesn't care if it was too cold out because she felt so numb right now. The Goth girl let out a whimper before she feels something appear next to her and peeks out of her arms to see Naruto as he sat down next to her. "Go away." Gwen muttered but the redhead didn't listen to her, "Didn't you hear me, just go away! I don't want your damn pity!"

"It's not pity," Naruto said getting her attention. "It is making sure a friend is alright after an emotional ordeal."

Gwen was quite before she turned her gaze back to the screen.

"Gomen, but I'm not leaving you here alone and that is not pity at all." Naruto said as he slowly placed his arm around her shoulders and the Goth girl flinched. She relaxed, seeing that he never went any further after holding her shoulders.

"Why are you here?" Gwen muttered, fighting her tears back.

"For you." Naruto replied as the Goth girl narrowed her eyes, "Like I said it's not pity…I just want to give you a shoulder to cry on, dattebayo." The redhead gave her a soft smile.

"…But why are you doing that for me…" Gwen sniffled, "We barely know each other…"

"Does it matter?" Naruto asked her with a light smile.

Gwen looked at him for a minute before she smiled lightly, "No it doesn't."

"That's true that we barely know each other but…" Naruto sighed, "I just can't stand around and do nothing if someone is in pain…" The redhead glanced at her as he rubbed her arm, "I really don't want to see you fall apart…So…Let it all out…Don't hold back…" Gwen looks up into his eyes to see that there was no pity…Just gentle and understanding. "Let it out…"

"…" The Goth girl released a sob before wailing as she buried her face in his shirt. "H-H-How can he do that to me! Doesn't he know how hard I have to pour out my heart to him! He is a jerk! Jerk! Jerk!" Gwen sobbed as she hits Naruto's chest with her fists, "I-I-I thought we had a real connection! W-W-Why did he cheat on me after we got together just now…I really believe that he was the one that I can trust…I hate him…" Her punches slowly become lightly before she stopped and grasped on his wet shirt. "It hurts so much…" The Goth girl starts to blabbing nonsense into his chest for a while.

Both Gwen and Trent looked down knowing it was hard for both of them. One reason they tried again after the season but as they found out it was just not meant to be. Still the pain was still there for them.

"Gwen…" Naruto whispered softly as he stroking her hair.

"I don't want to go back to the cabin…They're going to pity me…" Gwen muttered, she hates to be pitied by anyone and she also doesn't want to be in the cabin with the girl that the jerk just cheated with.

"Girl you know we respect you more than that," Leshawna said before shooting a glare at Heather, "At least some of us."

Bridgette nodded, "Yeah, we all care even after something like this."

Gwen smiled at them. "Thanks girls."

"…I'm not going to lie, dattebayo…They will pity you." Gwen flinched at his sentence, "But they care about you a lot…We want you to know that you're not alone in this…You have us…" Naruto looks into her teary eyes and wiped away her tears with gentle care. "We are here to support you and we will help you pick up the pieces, dattebayo."

Gwen sniffled as she leaned into his chest, "Naruto…"

"Hmm?"

"Thank you…"

"Yeah, what I said." Gwen added to Naruto who smiled back at her. Heather growled lightly but didn't do anything to draw attention to herself. Up above Kushina saw this all and she beamed all giddily, 'Oh this is so cute. Maybe this will lean to Naruto actually getting a girl. And then I will get some grandbabies!'

"No problem…" Naruto smiled, only to blink as he heard a snore and look down to her to see that she just passed out from crying too much. The redhead sighed softly as he stands up with Gwen in bridal carry and walk toward the cabins.

Duncan turned to Noah, "Put me for thirty bucks on Gwen."

"Nani?" Naruto asked confused.

Heather growled before she answered evenly, "The guys are making bets on who they think will win the season."

"Oh," Naruto replied nodding.

Gwen looked at Duncan as did Courtney, "Why did you think I will be with him?" the Goth girl whispered so Naruto would not hear.

"Because of a gut feeling," Duncan said, "And with how the two of you were after that moment I am glad I listened to it."


(Outside)

After placing Gwen in her bed in the empty girl's cabin, Naruto stretched his arms out before someone called out to him. "Idiot! I need to tell you something." The redhead blinked as Heather quickly grabs him and dragged him away from the cabins.

"Now what?" Leshawna asked loudly shooting Heather a look. "More of your lies?"

"What do you want to tell me about, dattebayo?" Naruto asked with tilted head.

"…I…I kind of got carried away." The queen bee fidgeted as she told him the truth and the redhead frowned at her with crossed arms. "…I'm sorry…Please don't hate me…"

The others did not believe her, though some like Lindsay has some doubts. Naruto looked at his friend, "You know I can never hate you Heat-chan. You may be tsundere but I don't think there is anything that can make me hate you."

Heather huffed, mostly for Naruto calling her tsundere again but it was not like the other times. 'Thanks idiot. That means a lot to me.'

"…I don't hate you." Naruto sighed, "But I'm little disappointed in you because you hurt two people…" Heather bit her lips with teary eyes, "…And you can't tell me that you're sorry…You have to go and apologize to Gwen, dattebayo."

"Never going to happen," Gwen said as her eyed met Heather's and they glared.

"…I will, I promise…" Heather sniffled, it always hurt her when she knew that Naruto was disappointed in her.

"Good…" Naruto pulled her in a hug, "It's good thing that you told me...and remember, I can't hate you at all because I know that sometime you can get carried away too much, dattebayo." The queen bee nodded timidly, "...I'm going back to my cabin." Naruto released her and walked away from her. Heather sighed softly, it was right thing to tell him before he find out from anyone else and may end up hate her, which really scared her a lot if it happened.

Naruto reached out and held Heather's arm, "You don't have to worry about that."

Heather stopped glaring before she glanced at him. "Thanks idiot" she muttered.


So much drama…I am loving it! With Naruto and Gwen shaking things up the others are seeing that things might not what they seem. And Heather surprised us with how she acts around Naruto. Speaking of surprises, if Heather already gave her first kiss, then who got it? Was it Naruto? Or someone else? If only she would let the boy tell all. Oh but we still have plenty of time for that. So what will happen with Gwen after her moment with Naruto? Will that shake things up even more with her thinking Trent really cheated on her? My Drama and Rating senses are tingling and I cannot wait. And no doubt neither can you. So stay tune for the next episode of Total…Drama…Preview!
