Author's Note: Here we are readers! This is certainly has been a joyful ride with a few bumps on the road. Originally, my goal was to write all thirteen chapters before April 10, 2020, but I got sick for almost the whole month of February and I was having quite a struggle writing chapter three. Right now, I have five chapters that are complete which to me is an accomplishment. This gives me more time to write the others as soon as possible. With that out of the way, enjoy reading.
Total Drama Crowstillo Island Chapter Two: Cuptastic Castle
The episode opens with a wide shot of Crowstillo Island completely showing the huge castle in the center of the island surrounded by trees. The camera pans to the beach areas where the waves are calm and soothing. Next is the woods where a bear is resting happily. Lastly, showing the castle outside. Despite it being over six hundred years old the conditions seem rather stable with a few cracks on some areas of the castle. A slurping sound is heard.
It is Chris sitting on a beach chair, using a straw to drink some coconut water from a coconut. When he realizes the camera is on, he stops drinking and gets up from his beach chair.
"Hello, Total Drama viewers!" He said with excitement. "You just had a glimpse of Crowstillo Island, around northern Europe. It may have seen peaceful, but trust me, there is a lot of untapped history here and places to explore,"
He walks to the front door of the castle. "For example, this castle used to be ruled by a king named Podelio who ruled this island around seven hundred years in the past. Until a man named Crowstillo took it with his army. Luckily this castle is still stable," Chris knocks on the front door and the door immediately crumbles onto the ground.
Chris winces at the sight but continues talking with a smile heading back to his beach chair. "This season, fourteen new contestants will compete in various medieval challenges to become a Total Drama Champion!" He sits back on his chair. "It might take a while for the contestants to get here so…"
High winds start to form as airplane noises start to sound.
"What the?" Chris said surprised that a plane has already come to the island. Chris takes a walkie talkie out of his pocket and talks into it. "Yo Chef, weren't the contestants supposed to arrive in another hour?"
"These are the contestants from Europe, so the producers decided to drop them off early," Chef answered through the walkie talkie.
"I can't start the challenge without the rest of the campers," Chris said.
"Well do it! Schedule remember; besides it can take forever for those teens to find those. Don't know why you wanted this challenge for the first episode," Chef said then hangs up.
"Guess I have to start now," Chris said annoyed. "Camera crew, get ready to film in three, two, one," Chris said through the walkie talkie.
(Intro Plays)
Turns out it was not a plane, but a helicopter as it comes down landing next to Chris who is smiling.
The first contestant walks out revealing to be a female wearing a strapless neckline with a classical alluring dress which is blue. The strapless bodice is adorned with elegant pleats and the slim waist is embellished with a belt and bowknot, highlighting the beauty of the dress. She also has blue and white stripe pattern flat shoes on her feet. Her black hair is tied with a blue ribbon in the form of a ponytail. She has a round face with an hourglass body. Lastly, she has brown eyes.
"Hello Ashley, glad you could make!" Chris said excitedly to see her.
"Chris, it is so exciting to be here," Ashley said enthusiastically. "Total Drama is my favorite show of all time!"
"Thanks, glad we still have an audience." Chris thanks her. "Nice dress by the way." He complimented her.
"Oh thanks, it's a…" Ashley is pushed onto the ground by someone's hand.
"Forgive me oh simple peasant, you were taking too long, and the Pharaoh must introduce himself immediately." Said a sixteen-year-old boy wearing a Nemes crown (a traditional Egyptian headpiece) and a white silt kilt that covers most of his lower body walking out the helicopter. Getting a better look, he has several gold bracelets on both his arms and has a tattoo of the Eye of Ra on the back of his right hand. Also, the dude is wearing gold color sandals without socks. Lastly, he has light brown skin and is above average in build.
"Nice entrance Pharaoh," Chris said.
"Wait your name is actually Pharaoh?" Ashley, still on the ground asked Pharaoh.
"Of course, I am after all born and made of royalty," Pharaoh answered walking away and standing next to Chris.
Another boy walks out of the helicopter.
He is blond with orange highlights and his hair is swept backward with sideburns. His hair runs down to his shoulders, has almond shape blue eyes and thick eyebrows. He has a very athletic and chiseled body, broad shoulder and beige skin tone. Diamond face shape, Chiseled face feature that makes him look handsome, while a bit rough looking, and he has a beauty mark on his right eye. Also, he has a small cut scar under his right eye and has multiple large cut scars on his left arm, which is covered by his bandages.
His outfit consists of wearing dark sunglasses, black winter British style double collar unzipped jacket coat. Underneath the jacket is a white shirt that has a red sun mark on the left front of the shirt which is below his lower abs. Black jeans that have two left-sided zippers in the middle and a white flaming lion mark on the lower half, a chain belt that contains 4 chains, black martial arts shoes, and black tactical fingerless gloves.
"Hey, you okay?" The athletic boy said offering a hand to Ashley.
"Oh, uh thanks," Ashley said as she extends her left arm. Leon lifts her up so she can stand. "Wow, you look even more handsome upfront."
"Thanks," Leon said smiling at her.
"What's with the bandages?" Ashley asked Leon pointing at his left arm cover with bandages.
"Is nothing!" Leon shouted. After that outburst, he walks away from Ashley standing next to Pharaoh feeling embarrassed.
"A noble grand warrior. You will be perfect as a general for my army." Pharaoh said to Leon. Leon just stands there in confusion not knowing how to respond.
"Meet Leon you two," Chris said.
"You can just call me Leo," Leon said.
"Leo? That name is out of this world!" Said a seventeen-year-old female.
Her dark brown hair is tie into a messy bun. She has dark brown eyes with a resemblance to Blaineley's body and Zoey's face. She has freckles sprinkled along the bridge of her nose and wearing light pink lipstick. She is wearing a light teal dress with little planets on it as well as knee-high white socks and bright red high-top converse shoes. Finally, she has star earrings and fifty style cat-eyeglasses.
"Get it because Leo is a Zodiac sign." She said then giggles awkwardly.
"Space geek Janet, glad you can make it," Chris said to her.
"Thanks, Chris," Janet said quietly. She jumps out of the helicopter. The helicopter leaves.
"Are we the only contestants participating?" Ashely asked the host.
Chris laughs at her question. "No, the other ten campers will be arriving in an hour. There are from Canada and America, so the producers decided to bring you four early."
"Isn't Canada part of America?" Janet asked.
"Indeed, a smart one," Pharaoh said. "You shall be a great royal adviser."
"You really think so?" Janet asked Pharaoh.
"Excuse me, the host needs to say some stuff," Chris said annoyed. He gets happy again. "Since the four of you are already here might as well start the challenge."
"That is a huge advantage right there if we are getting an hour head start," Leon said.
"Yes, it is, now before I explain the challenge let me talk about the island and campground," Chris said. "As usual, we have the outhouse confessionals. We also brought back the mess hall which is in the castle and cabins."
"Yes, we can actually eat meals," Leon said gladly.
"Yeah, the producers decided not to have the campers starve like in Pahkitew."
"Wait why do we need cabins? Isn't the castle a perfect place to stay in?" Ashley asked.
"The castle will be only for challenges only and eating," Chris said.
"Wait does that mean the castle is unstable?" Janet asked in fear.
"An unstable castle has no right for a Pharaoh. Fix it or either make a pyramid." Pharaoh demanded.
"Wow," Chris said thinking that this guy believes he is a Pharaoh. "Anyway, the rest of the island is surrounded by woods filled with tame or ferocious animals. There is also the beach, follow me." The four contestants follow Chris to the front of the castle with its front door still in pieces.
"Campers, this is your first challenge, Cup Finder," Chris said then explains the challenge. "Throughout this castle, I have hidden fourteen silver wine cups and two gold wine cups."
"When you mean you do you mean the interns?" Janet asked trying her best not to sound rude.
"Nope! There is no budget for that." Chris answered. He remembers all the floors and rooms he went to and cringes at remembering that. "Campers must grab a cup by finding them in a room inside the castle."
"There seems to be a lot of rooms," Ashley said.
"Yeah, and eight floors to explore as well," Chris added. The campers groan except Janet. "Once you are able to collect one silver cup you must bring it back outside the castle. Campers who don't bring back a cup before sunset is automatically eliminated."
The four campers gasp.
"What about the two gold cups you mention?" Leon asked the host.
"Good question Leon, whoever brings back a gold cup has the advantage to pick out his or her team once everyone is done with the challenge," Chris replied.
The four campers cheer.
"With no more explanations, have fun," Chris said. The four campers run into the castle.
Confessional: Leon
"This is a huge advantage I have right now. I'm thinking of having the other three team up with me to find a gold cup that way all of us can be in the same team."
End Confessional
The four contestants are running but stop to look around the castle. If not for the windows the castle would be completely dark inside with no view. Some walls have spiderwebs on them and the hallways look out of shape. The doors to rooms seem the only decent part that looks clean.
"We are going to need a torch," Pharaoh said. "Ashley, make a torch and bring it to your Pharaoh." He instructed to Ashley.
"Sure thing," Ashley said grabbing a big stick from the ground.
"How are we going to make the fire?" Leon asked.
"That is not the Pharaoh's concern," Pharaoh said. Janet looks nervous.
Confessional: Janet
"I have a hard time talking with people I do not know yet." Janet. "But I feel like I am the only one who knows how to make a fire so…"
End Confessional
"Not your concern?" Leon questioned Pharaoh. "We need a torch to see where we are going."
"Is not my concern because Ashley can make it for us," Pharaoh said to Leon.
"Uh, I don't know how to make a fire." Ashley smiled sheepishly.
"Then why you decided to make a torch?" Leon asked.
"Pharaoh told me to," Ashley answered nervously.
"It would have been nice for you to tell us that information," Pharaoh said to Ashley with a disproval look.
"Um, guys," Janet said trying to gain their attention.
"I didn't want to let you three down," Ashley said.
"No excuses, take her to my dungeon," Pharaoh ordered Leon.
"Dude, I am not your general, lackey or whatever its call," Leon told him starting to get annoyed.
"Guys?" Janet said again raising her voice a bit.
Pharaoh gasps. "How dare you say that against your Pharaoh?"
"You are not my Pharaoh," Leon said irritated.
"I believe we are wasting our advantage." Ashley pointed out.
"GUYS!" Janet shouted getting their attention. She giggles out of embarrassment then talks. "I made the fire." She shows the fire on the ground.
"Wow, how did you do that?" Ashley asked Janet as she and the boys walk to the fire.
"Oh, it was nothing. I just created a tinder bundle by collecting dry sticks and a piece of wood I found nearby. Then simply create friction by rubbing my hands like a drill and…" Before Janet can continue Pharaoh interrupts.
"We don't have all day Janet."
"Oh coming!" Janet runs to the three campers grabbing a torch from the fire she made.
Confessional: Janet
"When I go camping with my family, I usually start the fire. It gives you nice warmth when you are watching stars."
End Confessional
A blimp is shown high above Crowstillo Island which holds inside the remaining ten contestants.
The one far to the left is a male with slick and medium black hair. He has an unbuttoned jacket with a Chinese symbol in the back that translates to the word courage. He also is wearing black pants and black sports shoes. He is very built and muscular showing his six-pack thanks to his unbuttoned jacket and a small scar in his chest. The most unique about him is that his left eye is red, and his right eye is black. He carries a belt with two knives and a hand fan.
While he is meditating most of the girls are checking him out.
"Oh my gosh, that dude is so hot." Said one of them.
This teenage girl has long black hair with feathered ends and brown eyes. She is wearing a magenta top with blue worn-out jeans and white socks with Nike magenta slides.
The female next to her has her hair dyed in purple that reaches her mid-back, tie into a fishtail braid and her bangs are swept to the right. She has a heart-shaped face, almond shape eyes, and plump lips. Her eyes are brown. She is a petite girl with lean muscles and slight curves to define her shape. She is wearing a white tank top, fake black leather jacket, dark blue ripped skinny jeans and beat-up black converse.
"Whatever, I could care less."
"I bet he is wicked at parties." The girl with the magenta top screams in excitement causing the other girl to cover her ears.
"Was that really necessary?" Said a boy all the way to the right.
The boy is half Filipino, half Taiwanese, but he still has the Asian ethnicity, having slightly tan skin. His facial features are more on the Taiwanese side and he has a thin body. He is wearing a black turtleneck sweater, khaki pants, and brown shoes. His black hair reaches just above his neck and is swept/gelled to the side. He has black square-framed glasses and is using braces.
"The screams can echo through here you know." The boy said as a matter of fact.
"Really, that is awesome. I'm going to do that now." Said another girl.
Her natural straight blonde hair dyed halfway in pink goes down the way to her back. Her face is very youthful-looking with big almost yellowish-green eyes. She is 5'7'', pale skin and has a pear-shaped body. She is wearing a thick and incredibly long yellow scarf, a black t-shirt depicting realistic-looking scars and blood patterns, a short red skirt, and almost knee-height black combat boots.
"No no no no no!" Said several teens at the same time.
Before the girl with the long yellow scarf can scream the voice of Chris comes from the speakers in the blimp.
"Hello campers, you are now above Crowstillo Island."
The contestants cheer happily that they have arrived at their destination.
"However, you need to jump off the blimp to actually land."
"What!?" Said the teen with braces.
"Once you reach land meet me at the giant castle."
The contestants look at a pile of crates.
"Stand aside." The teen with the unbuttoned jacket said as he walks to the crates. He chops one in half revealing parachute bags inside the crate.
A female teen with short-cropped blonde hair wearing a blue jacket, white t-shirt, blue jeans, and black shoes walks towards the parachutes then looks at the contestants still sitting. She has a short thin nose, a small mouth, and has auburn eyes. She has a pretty slim figure with some muscles on her arms, legs, and stomach. Lastly, she is wearing a bronze bracelet around her left wrist.
"Listen up, everybody grabs a parachute. We will be jumping off in a single file so let us not get crazy. Our luggage is in hear so I suggest we carry the lightest item we all have." She said with authority.
"Where is the fun in that?" Said a teenage boy getting up.
His hair is somewhat messy, dyed white with bangs that fall just above his eyes, is mostly straight and down to his ears. He has dark brown eyes. He is a slim boy with a tiny waist, has slightly defined muscles in his arms, abdomen, and legs. He has baby fat cheeks. His eyebrows usually remain hidden underneath his bangs, but they're black and normal in shape and size. His eyes are round, and he has some dark circles underneath them. His eyelashes are thick and long, his nose is small, and his skin is tanned. His regular attire consists of a long sleeve pink tee with the sleeves reaching down to his knees while his arms and hands only reach his upper thighs, dark blue jeans, long pink socks, and black Converse sneakers.
He quickly grabs a parachute and takes a case with him jumping out of the blimp.
"Well, he sorts of followed my rules I guess?" The girl with the blue jacket said. "Alright everyone you know the drill let's get jumping."
The next contestant to jump off has somewhat short ginger hair that reaches to the middle of her neck with her eyes color blue. She has a rather round face, with rather full cheeks, overall having a rather attractive face. She also has a curvaceous figure, with thick thighs and a large bust however, she has a large, round and protruding belly. She is wearing brown sandals, cream knee-length capris and a short-sleeved light blue collared shirt, which is tied, exposing her midriff. She also has two silver bangles on her right arm.
"Woohoo!"
The next one to jump has medium length, down to neck straight black hair. He has blue eyes and has a thin face, with some scratches around his cheeks. He has a nose with a small mouth plus a small beard that is beginning to show. He is thin wearing an oversized t-shirt with some bagged jeans and some old jeans and old sneakers. He has a rope tie to his oversized t-shirt to prevent it from falling and is wearing a red bandana on the top of his head.
"I am starting to think signing up was a bad idea."
The rest of the campers jump off with their luggage. Only two remain in the blimp, the girl with the long yellow scarf and the last male contestant.
He has dark brown spikey hair, light brown eyes, and tan skin. He seems to pack some muscles, but his outfit barely shows it. He is wearing a beige trench coat, a murky green shirt, and black jeans. He also has rectangular silver glasses.
"Here you go." He offered a parachute to her.
"No thanks, I don't need it." The girl assured as she jumps out of the blimp.
"She is a strange one." He said then jumps off the blimp.
Pharaoh, Leon, Ashley, and Janet are on the third floor of the castle still looking for silver or gold cups. Janet looks out the window seeing some of the contestants coming down from the sky with parachutes.
"Cool, it's raining men," Janet said.
"Hallelujah." Pharaoh joked.
"Those must be the other campers," Ashley said.
"We still have not found any cups. There goes our advantage." Leon said with a sigh.
"Nonsense, you fools are just not listening to the Pharaoh," Pharaoh stated.
"Oh, really?" Leon questioned him.
"Show us where the cup is Pharaoh," Janet said happily.
The four campers walk to another room close by. Pharaoh opens the door revealing a silver cup on top of a dusty old bed. "Behold!" Pharaoh said.
Ashley and Janet applause Pharaoh except for Leon who stays bewildered. Pharaoh walks into the room. The floor suddenly starts to break causing Pharaoh to fall into a room on the second floor.
"Ow," He said as he groans in pain.
"Oh my gosh, are you okay Pharaoh?" Janet asked. The three only hear mumbling from him. "You're right, that was a stupid question."
Leon sees a rock on the floor and grabs it. He throws it to the silver cup bouncing it to the wall. The silver cup then ricochets off the wall falling onto Pharaoh's head. Pharaoh is knocked out unconscious.
Confessional: Leon
"That did not go as plan," Leon said feeling bad he knocked out Pharaoh.
End Confessional
"I guess we can rescue him," Ashley suggested.
"Uh, sure. You two can go wake him up while I search for more cups." Leon said nervously.
The two girls think for a moment until Janet speaks.
"That sounds like a wonderful idea."
Leon gives a thumbs up and leaves the area. After a few seconds, Leon leaving and looking at the unconscious Pharaoh Ashley asks a question to Janet.
"Do you think he ditched us?"
Outside the castle, the ten remaining contestants wait for Chris. The host arrives with Chef.
"Alright, let's see here," Chris said looking at the contestants. He calls their name one by one.
"Knick" The teen with the trench coat nods to notify himself.
"Henry" The boy with oversized clothes gives a thumbs up.
"Max" The girl with the large and round body farts creating a small green cloud. The campers put faces of disgust and take a few steps away from her.
"Please, like any of you haven't farted before. It is just pure nature." Max said proudly.
"Pixel"
"Yeah!" The boy with white dyed hair exclaimed in excitement.
"Lucy" The girl that looks like a cop smiles in delight.
"Casey" The girl with the yellow scarf is shown biting a wooden stick like a dog causing the other contestants to look at her weirdly.
"Jared" The half Filipino and half Taiwanese kid smiles.
"Livia" The girl wearing the magenta top screams in excitement annoying Jared again.
"Christopher and Saraphina." The muscular teen and the girl with dyed purple hair share a fist bump with each other.
"Congratulations to you ten lucky contestants participating in Total Drama's newest season Total Drama Crowstillo Island," Chris said.
"Hey Chris, just call me Sara alright?" Saraphina said bluntly.
"No, anyway let me tell you…" He is interrupted by Jared.
"Isn't there supposed to be fourteen of us?"
"I did count ten on the blimp," Knick stated also confused.
"Oh, maybe they are planning a surprise party," Livia said jumping in excitement.
The contestants mumble to each other Chris glares at them not liking how they are ignoring him.
"QUIET MAGGOTS!" Chef shouted getting the camper's attention.
"Thank you, Chef. The other four campers arrived early and are doing the challenge as we speak." Chris said.
Some are in pure shock while others could not believe it. Chris started a challenge without them. The contestants start to talk all at once at Chris with questions like, why did he start so soon? Are you already that old to become impatient? That is a totally unfair advantage.
"ZIP IT!" Chris raised his voice to get attention once more. "I will allow all of you to start the challenge once you know where the cabins, confessional, and mess hall are."
Confessional: Sara
"Seriously, the producers couldn't think of a proper schedule so all the contestants can arrive at the same time!?" Sara exclaimed clearly not happy. "No wonder this show is on the brink of cancellation."
End Confessional
Leon walks up to the fifth floor opening all the rooms finding no cups of silver or gold. "Come on Leo don't lose your cool." He said getting frustrated. "Aw man, I should have helped them." He said after finding another empty room. He opens the door to another room.
"Hey dude what's up?" Casey said casually sitting on an empty bed full of sheets.
Leon screams from shock seeing a girl in the room. Casey gets close to him rubbing his back.
"Shush, is okay, breath in and out," Casey said as Leon follows allowing him to regain composure.
"Thanks." Leon thanked, but then shouts, "How did you get up here!?"
"I climbed up." She said smiling.
Leon looks at the room having an open window and remembering that they are on the fifth floor. Before he can question further Casey reveals two silver cups.
"I found these in the room."
She hands one to Leon. Leon takes it and is happy until a beeping sound is heard from the cup. It starts to beep faster so he chucks the silver cup out of the window. An explosion is heard outside.
"Is he trying to kill us!?" Leon said knowing that there are now traps and fake cups.
"That was so awesome!" Casey said.
On the first floor of the castle Pixel, Max, Livia, and Sara wonder around entering a buttery room. A bunch of barrels is shown on some tables and the floor.
"Where are we?" Livia asked looking around trying to find any cups.
"I don't know too much of medieval history, but I believe this is the place where beer and wine are usually stored." Pixel answered also looking around the place for cups.
Sara shakes a barrel hearing sounds of liquid in it. "That's odd, the wine should have dried up if it has been here for hundreds of years." She said then puts her hands on her hips thinking.
Livia shakes another barrel hearing liquid from it. "This is going to be so good for doing parties here." She said looking at the barrel all crazy like tempting to open it.
Max slams hard a barrel into the ground revealing six silver cups. "Hey, I found some of them."
"Nice job Max." Pixel congratulated her.
Livia grabs a silver cup on the floor then opens a barrel full of wine. She puts the silver cup inside and taking out filling up the cup with wine. She drinks it completely, her eyes widening. "Oh yeah, that's the good shit." She said with desire.
"I want to taste." Pixel said with excitement grabbing a silver cup then opens another barrel of wine.
"Is this really a good idea?" Max asked Sara. Both look at Livia and Pixel chugging cups of whine. Sara grabs a silver cup on the floor from the barrel Max broke.
"Look, you can chug all you want and end up like these two and be too stupid to even walk, which can cause them the challenge or come with me and give Chris these cups," Sara said leaving the buttery room with her prize.
Max watches Sara leave then looks at Livia and Pixel still drinking. "Pixel stop, remember that if we don't bring back a cup by sundown we will be eliminated," Max said to Pixel.
Pixel stops drinking for a moment and realizes he still needs to win the challenge. He spills the drink onto the floor. "Thanks Max, I was getting a bit reckless." He said thanking Max. "Livia, are you doing good?"
Livia is on the floor feeling weak.
Pixel comes up with a plan. "Max, help me roll that barrel out of here."
Pixel and Max hold their silver cups while rolling a barrel of wine. Livia even though almost drunk manages to get up.
"Note to self, never drink a gallon of wine," Livia said weak walking with the other two while holding her silver cup.
Pantry Room
Jared, Christopher, Lucy, and Knick enter the pantry room.
"I am so glad I followed you three. Seems like guys know what you are doing." Jared said spitting a bit from talking.
"It appears great minds think a lot." Christopher acknowledged.
"Pantry rooms are usually filled with dishes and cups," Lucy said opening and looking through a cabinet.
"Chris said he hid the cups. Doesn't mean he hid them in good spots." Knick said.
"Isn't this the most obvious place to look though?" Jared asked now beginning to search.
"Yes, but it is still worth a try," Christopher said. He opens a drawer of a cabin and sticks his hand in. A boxing glove launches out and hits Christopher in the groin.
Jared opens a cabinet and a bunch of spiders jumps onto his hair. "AH AH get it off!" He said running around in circles until hitting the cabinet.
Knick and Lucy watch the two get hurt by many traps. Lucy decides to open the last cabinet on her left and shows a full dozen of silver cups.
"Jackpot!" Lucy exclaimed. "Let's get these and head out." She takes a silver cup out of the case.
"Stop!" Said Jared. "You have to put that cup back in the case. It is a perfect set of a dozen with an even number. Taking one out will result in an odd number and imperfection."
"O..kay?" Lucy said confused.
"We just need four. That means only eight are left in the case and is an even number." Christopher suggested.
"No, is not the same. It has to be a dozen." Jared said.
"So, what do you suggest?" Knick wondered.
"We bring the full case, duh," Jaden said gladly.
"No, I don't think we will," Lucy said seriously. "It is unnecessary to travel with that to Chris."
"We really don't have time for this," Knick said getting a bit annoyed by Jared's persistence.
"Agreed, that's why I am taking the case," Christopher said proudly. He grabs the case and heads off with the other three following him.
Henry is grabbing items that he can find on the second floor. "Maybe I can do something with these rocks and soup cans that are here for some reason." He finds a room open. He enters the room and finds Pharaoh on top of the rubble. He tips toes carefully closer to Pharaoh who is still unconscious. Henry finds a silver cup in the pile, yet he does not grab it.
He notices the Nemes crown on Pharaoh's head on tries to take it off Pharaoh. "I can use a new warm hat." He reaches closer until Pharaoh slaps away Henry's hands.
"How dare thee try to steal my precious crown!" Pharaoh said with force.
The sudden burst causes Henry to fall on his back.
"You are not even worthy to scrub the feet of the Pharaoh!" Pharaoh said. "Now off with you beggar."
Henry stays bewildered at Pharaoh.
Confessional: Henry
"Does he really believe he is a Pharaoh?" Henry asked. "Then again, I like to pretend I'm a pirate sometimes."
End Confessional
"Uh, sure thing your majesty," Henry said and leaves the room running.
"What a fleabag, he had no right to touch a great pharaoh such as me," Pharaoh said to himself. He looks around the rubble to see his silver cup is gone. "Dang it."
Outside the Castle
Sara arrives outside the castle with her silver cup. "Yes, first place!" She exclaimed raising her hands up high.
"Congratulations Sara," Chris said to her. "You are the first camper to arrive with a silver cup of mine."
"Sweet, now I just need to go back to get the gold one," Sara said about to head back to the castle.
"Hold it Saraphina, you can only bring one cup to me and there is no going back," Chris said. "In the meantime, go get your luggage." Chris shows a pile of luggage that looks like a pyramid. "The producers wanted to make sure all campers got extra clothing."
"Geez, you guys really are learning your mistakes from Pahkitew," Sara said smirking as she walks to the pile of luggage. Chris glares at her for making that comment.
Sara sees that her luggage is at the bottom. She pulls it out and the luggage on top tumble towards her. The luggage is now on top of her. Chris chuckles at her misfortune.
By the time Ashley and Janet arrive on the second floor to help Pharaoh, he had already left. They both enter the room.
"Seems like Pharaoh left," Janet said pointing out the obvious.
"Yeah, he must have woken up," Ashley said. Both hear cracks on the ceiling of the room.
"Oooooh, we get to see stars soon," Janet said eagerly.
"I have a bad feeling about this," Ashley said. She tries to move but she cannot. "Oh no, I'm paralyzed with fear. Janet help me out here."
"Rocks falling kind of look like small meteors from space. If only they are on fire." Janet said fascinated by the rocks of the ceiling falling.
"Janet!" Ashely shouted in desperation.
Janet quickly goes to Ashley now fully concentrated, but suddenly a bunch of rocks fall separating the two.
"I can't go through," Janet said.
"Just go around it," Ashely told desperately.
"You can do that?" Janet asked unaware.
"Are you serious!?" Ashley shouted dumbfounded by the space geek asking that question.
On the other side of the hallway of the second floor, Leon and Casey are having a one-sided conversation.
"Tell me," Casey said.
"No," Leon said then sighs.
"Tell me," Casey said again playfully.
"Casey, I do not feel comfortable about talking about what is under the bandages," Leon said walking a bit faster.
"I have to know dude. Even though it is pretty obvious what it is." Casey said calmly.
"Oh, then tell me?" Leon asked curious to see if the teen with the long scarf already figured it out.
Before Casey can answer both hear cries for help.
"That sounds like Ashley and Janet!" Leon said worriedly.
"You mean the other campers that came before me?" Casey asked.
"Yes, they're in trouble. We have to save them!"
Casey yawns. "Nah, I don't feel like it. You go ahead."
Leon is about to retort but decides not to and runs to where the two ladies are.
Outside the Castle
Knick, Lucy, Jared, and Christopher leave the castle. Chris, Chef, and Sara see Christopher holding a case of a dozen silver cups.
"Why did you four brought a dozen silver cups?" Chris questioned.
"Because Mr. Perfect here wanted them," Lucy said jabbing a thumb at Jared. Jared looks away whistling however instead of whistling it was just spit coming out.
Sara walks up to Christopher. "Did you had a problem carrying that all the way here?" She asked.
"Nah, it was easy," Christopher assured dropping the dozen pack into the floor. Crack sounds can be heard. "Oops."
Lucy, Knick, and Jared gasp. The case is now broken, and several cups are also cracked.
"Well, you four better hope there are cups intact because I'm not accepting any broken ones," Chris said smiling.
Christopher, Jared, Knick, and Lucy immediately bend their knees to look for any silver cups still in condition.
"Hey, I found one!" Jared said with excitement. Lucy pushes him to the ground and grabs his silver cup.
"No hard feelings Jared." She said then runs up to Chris. "Here you go, Chris."
"And Lucy retrieves one in good condition, thank you."
"Hey no fair I saw it first," Jared whined.
"Here, I found an extra one," Christopher said handing one to Jared.
"Thanks."
All the other cups are either cracked or broken. Knick stands up, putting his hands on the pockets of his trench coat.
"Knick looks like you have to go back and find a silver cup again," Chris said.
"Very well," Knick said calmly walking inside the castle again.
Second Floor
Leon arrives to see a pile of rocks in the middle making the room look like it is two separate ones. On the left Ashley frozen in fear and on the right Janet looking at the ceiling falling.
"Somebody please help!" Ashley shouted.
"Hold on you two!" Leon said.
Confessional – Ashley
"It was the first challenge. I didn't think I was going to get into trouble like this so quickly."
End Confessional
Leon is conflicted. He cannot save both at the same time. He thinks of an idea. "Wow Saturn is such a big planet, it has to be the biggest planet of them all."
"What!?" Janet said shocked to hear that from Leon. "I have you know that the biggest planet is, in fact, Jupiter with a diameter of one hundred thirty-nine thousand eight hundred twenty-two kilometers," Janet said speaking walking towards Leon. She is out of the room but keeps continuing to talk. "Its mass is 318 times larger than Earth, furthermore…"
"I get it, Janet." Leon confidently said while smiling. "Wait right here." Seeing Ashley unable to move because of fear Leon rushes in lifting Ashley into his arms. They both exit out of the room as the ceiling crumbles down completely.
"Oh wow, thanks," Ashley said to Leon still being carried by him. She stares into his blue eyes dreamily. Leon looks at her brown eyes as well.
"The stars are aligning," Janet whispered to herself as she sees the two campers in front gazing at each other.
Leon breaks from the gaze first. "Uh, let me put you back down."
"Oh, no need I can do it," Ashley said. She stands up. "We were able to find some silver cups along the way back here."
"Me too," Leon said. "Alright, let us get moving. Sunset should be arriving soon."
First Floor
Pharaoh wonders around still looking for a gold cup. "The Pharaoh cannot take a silver cup for he must retrieve the whine cup of royalty." He spots Pixel, Max, and Livia who is a bit drunk.
Pixel carries his silver cup and Max's cup while Max is still rolling the barrel. Livia is hiccupping while walking.
"Excuse me humble people, have you spotted a golden cup for the great Pharaoh?" Pharaoh asked.
"No, if we did, we would have taken it." Pixel answered.
"Oh, very well. Carry on."
"We left like a few extra silver cups in the Buttery Room if you like," Max told.
"Very well, the Pharaoh must go and collect those," Pharaoh admitted knowing very well time is running out. "Can any of you direct me to the buttery room?"
Outside the Castle
Henry and Casey run outside the castle heading towards to give each their cup. Noticing Henry has a golden cup Casey extends her leg out making the orphan trip and releasing his golden cup. Casey takes it and leaves hers in the ground.
"Here you go, Chris," Casey said. Chef takes the golden cup.
"Nice job Casey, since you came here with a golden cup you can select the teammates you want," Chris said.
"Hey, she obviously took that one from Henry that shouldn't count." Lucy countered.
"Oh so the one you got by pushing me shouldn't count either right?" Jared told Lucy spitting a bit while he is talking.
Lucy thinks for a moment and realized what she said. "Yeah, you're right Jared. That was rude of my part." She apologized.
Leon, Ashley, and Janet are the next to arrive giving their silver whine cups to Chef.
"You three are safe," Chris told them and the three cheer.
Pixel, Max, and Livia arrive next.
"What's with the barrel?" Henry asked.
"Fine wine for us to dine later on," Max answered happily.
"And to get drunk probably." Pixel said with a cocky smile.
"How did you maggots find my buttery room?" Chef asked with intimidation in his voice.
"The fairy godmother opened it for us," Livia responded then plummets to the ground.
"Is she drunk?" Chris enquired to know.
"Yes." Said Pixel and Max at the same time.
"That is so wicked!" Chris said then laughs.
"I don't get it," Janet told Leon and Ashley.
"This episode is going to need censoring right?" Chris told Chef. Chef nods his head meaning yes. "Dang it." He puts his attention to the twelve campers.
"Alright campers, we are just waiting for Knick and Pharaoh to come back. If by sundown they don't have a cup with them they are automatically eliminated. Which is in ten minutes." Chris chuckles. "This just got intense."
Confessional – Henry
"Honestly, I would not mind Pharaoh going home already. Dude called me a beggar, that is not right. Just because I'm an orphan that doesn't mean I should be treated that way." Henry said having a distaste for Pharaoh.
Confessional – Sara
"Both could go home right now, and it will make things go way faster in this competition for me to win." She said proudly.
Confessional – Pixel
"I only talk to him like once, but it seems like Pharaoh didn't get along with some of these people. Hopefully, he's not on my team." Pixel confessed.
Confessional – Lucy
"Knick looks like he can be a real threat to me so it's better off if he is gone quickly," Lucy stated.
End Confessionals
Pharaoh enters the buttery room seeing two silver cups on the floor. "Sweet." He grabs one and proceeds to leave.
Outside the Castle
Chris examines Knick's golden cup he got. "Looks good to me. Congratulations Knick, you and Casey will select your teammates if Pharaoh makes it out in less than two minutes.
Confessional – Knick
"I simply found buckets of paint in one of the hallways of this large castle. Coincidently, one of them is gold paint so I found a silver cup and just painted it gold until it dries up. A bit risky, but it got the job done." Knick said tranquility.
End Confessional
"I'm here, I'm here!" Exclaimed Pharaoh arriving with his silver cup. He slowly stops and takes a breather exhausted from running so fast.
"Pharaoh my man, how does it feel to be the last camper to finish the challenge?" Chris wondered.
"Pharaoh… needs… a break."
Campfire Ceremony
A beautiful sunset is shown to highlight its wonders. Then the camera pans to Chris, Chef, and the campers on the roof of the tower. The campers are sitting on logs. Fourteen for each one. Row one has the girls and the row in the back has the boys. Chris and Chef are standing facing the campers. There is a catapult nearby for some reason.
"Alright campers, since all of you were able to complete the challenge, nobody is going home tonight!" Chris said with enthusiasm exciting the campers. They cheer with clapping, shouting, and high fiving. "Settle down." The teens stay quiet waiting for the host's second announcement. "Knick and Casey, since you two were able to find a golden cup stand by Chef." The host instructed.
Knick and Casey follow, but Casey walks to Chef on her feet. She gets there and stands up again. Chef is holding two-color mats.
"You two will now be choosing your teams. Remember, these will be your teammates for the rest of the competition until the merge so, choose wisely." Chris warned with a smile. "Casey, since you got a gold cup first you can pick first."
"Alright, I want kung fu six-pack," Casey said with a wild look scaring a bit Christopher. The kung fu fighter gets up going to Casey's side.
Knick looks at possible teammates and spots Lucy. "Lucy, you will be a great addition."
"First pick, wonderful job Knick." Lucy complimented walking towards her teammate.
"You look like you're a guy to have lots of fun. Get over here Pixel." Casey said.
"Now we're talking," Pixel responded and goes to his team.
"Ashley, you look like a divine person to have on the team." Knick complimented the Mexican French belle who giggles sweetly.
"Thanks, Knick," Ashley said and goes to her team.
"I can use a party girl like Livia," Casey stated. The party girl runs up and high fives her teammate.
"Get over here Leon," Knick said. The lionheart brawler nods and proceeds to walk to his team.
"Hmm, I will take…" Before Casey can say anymore Chris interrupts her.
"This a thirty-minute show people so hurry up." The host stated.
"Very well, give me Max, Jared, and Pharaoh," Knick said.
Mentioning Pharaoh causes the Knick's team to say, "Noooooooo!".
"That leaves Casey with Henry, Sara, and Janet," Chris informed. "Your team will be the Dangerous Dragons!"
Chef throws one of the mats at it hits Henry who fools down by the impact. Pixel opens it up revealing a green symbol with the head of a western dragon in it.
"And Knick's team is now known as the Kind Knights!" Chris said.
Chef throws the other mat and Max catches. She lets out a small toot.
"Excuse me." She apologized. She opens the mat to reveal a pinkish-red color with a knight's helmet on it.
"Because we can only provide two cabins, boys will get the right cabin and girls will get the left cabin," Chris informed them. "You are all safe… for now."
"Guess we can get some rest now," Henry said to his team.
"Or… we can party like crazy!" Livia shouted out to the sky. All the campers like the idea.
Night falls and both teams are partying in the Great Mess Hall of the castle. They drink wine and eat as they live like royalty. Different types of meats like chicken, turkey, cow, and pig cook to perfection with a salad bar as well. There are even pastries like cupcakes, chocolate cake, donuts, and pudding.
"Yo Chris, who did you hire to make the food for those campers?" Chef asked.
"Oh, those are just leftovers from the party we had with the producers," Chris replied
Chef chuckles at this. "Nice." He leaves Chris alone.
The host looks at the camera. "Two teams, fourteen new players competing for one million dollars! Who will come out on top? The Dangerous Dragons or the Kind Knights? Find out next time on Total… Drama… Crowstillo Island!"
Teams:
Dangerous Dragons: Casey, Janet, Livia, Sara, Christopher, Henry, and Pixel
Kind Knights: Ashley, Max, Lucy, Jared, Knick, Leon, and Pharaoh
