Trygve11: Hope you all enjoy this chapter major thanks to Hopps once again the guy really came through with the challenge. I'm not the most knowledgeable on the subject but, he really made it a great challenge. And credit to Knifez's story Total Drama Chaos for the idea of using VR in challenges, this is where this idea mainly became inspired from and I encourage you guys to go check it out it's a really good story and it is definitely worth a read.
Hopps: most of the points Trygve made hold true for me. I loved how Knifez handled final destination in his work so I hope we made ours unique and captivating enough for the audience to see. Also this chapter is a bit more gory than the others, and this won't be the last gory VR that will happen.
"Welcome back viewing audience to another episode of Total Drama Island Revived. Last time the teams worked together to collect as many fish as possible from the many bouies spread across the island, but it was the Doves who won out and the Rabbits who lost. While the saboteur didn't have a hand in the vote it was almost as if the target for everyone went home. Amy the mean twin who fought and argued and tortured her sister for all her life was sent home for the benefit of the team, will they lose again and will the saboteur do anything important this episode, find out right now on Total Drama Island Revived," Chris said to the camera.
The cameras around Camp wawanakwa popped out of the ground, disturbing the natural wildlife, throwing trash away, and even scaring a couple of interns.
Dear Mom and Dad I'm doin' fine,
You guys are on my mind.
The cameras seemed to fly through the camp where Ryan, Cody, Beardo,Ezekiel and Bridgette, were sitting on some rocks talking strategy and not too far away Duncan, Cameron, Zoey, Mike, Dave and Sky were doing the same.
You asked me what I wanted to be
And now I think the answer is plain to see,
Then the camera zoomed over to the beach to see the BFFL alliance hugging with an angry Jo staring at them.
I wanna be famous.
Then the camera switched to Bridgette and Geoff having their backs turned with anger in their eyes but Geoff then stares over to where Sammy is and his face turns from a bit of discomfort to a bit of happiness.
I wanna live close to the sun,
The scene then switched to Duncan and Courtney arguing exchanging harsh words while Fang and Chomper stared sadly at them while Sky is trying to make up with Dave who in return hugs Sky who returns it.
Go pack your bags, 'cause I've already won,
It was at this point the scene showed a shadowy character speaking to Chris.
Everything to prove, nothing in my way
The cameras then panned to Scarlett watching Jasmine and Dawn chase down Scott smirking to herself.
I'll get there one day.
Cause, I wanna be famous!
Then the scene switches to Dawn and Jasmine chasing down Scott by the cabins before he falls into a trap set by B who was hiding behind some bushes
Na na na na na na na na na na na na na na na!
Then it switches to the campfire where you can see everyone there and seeing Geoff and Ryan giving an awkward fist bump
I wanna be, I wanna be, I wanna be famous
I wanna be, I wanna be, I wanna be famous
It was at this point all of the eliminated campers were shown fading away from the campfire scene resembling that they have been eliminated.
The saboteur and Chris were currently in a non disclosable location,
"You have two choices this week and they both involve team swaps, either the first person out for both the winning and losing team will swap teams or the first two people to die in the challenge today will swap teams," Chris explained,
"As much as your second option scares me I'll go with the first option," The saboteur mused.
"Fine choice my devious friend," Chris said.
"I know," They replied.
Confessional, Scarlett
These plebeians don't know what's coming. Yes I have become less "crazy" than I once was but, I still intend to win this petty game. After analyzing Chris's patterns from previous seasons which means a twist should be appearing soon especially with a cast size this gargantuan.
Confessional, Gwen
I may not be happy that I'm here but now with Topher gone, our team has been pretty chill. Zeke and Beardo are just that, Cody is fine, especially since he isn't as clingy this season, me and Trent are just friends now even if we are a bit quiet, and it's just that Geoff seems off. Hopefully he's moved passed Bridgette. As for Ryan, I don't know whether to trust him or not. Everyone else seems to, but the fact that he seems like an extremely strong player already and no one is really paying attention to it scares me.
Confessional, Brick
After we got out of our losing funk we have been on fire in challenges, nothing can ruin our mojo right now and even Lighting seems more of a team player right now, but for him that's an extremely low bar to achieve.
Confessional, Dave
So last night I made amends with Sky and we both agreed that we would see how things would go this season before we actually became a couple, YES (Fistpumps) Anyways, because we made up, Duncan approached us about an alliance with Mike, Zoey, and Cameron called The Exterminators, we are SO going to rule this game.
Confessional, Sky
Dave and I made up finally, and along with that I'm in an alliance with him, I'm sure we will go far but, hopefully one of us doesn't get voted out early. But, we have the majority of votes there's no way that will happen. Although I'm not entirely sure about us being so big though...
Confessional, Duncan
This is purley a strategic move so we make sure that Anne Maria goes home and then Tyler. As for Courtney-I don't know-she seems different after last challenge. Who knows maybe one of those sharks knocked her upside the head or something? If they bit her I'm sure she would be missing a limb.
Most of the campers were outside having fun as Chris wanted to have another challenge later in the day so the football game from last time was able to resume but, this time there were some differences. Both Lighting and Eva agreed that whoever scores in the fewest plays would win the game. Lighting was set to take the kickoff after Eva had scored on the previous possession. Meanwhile some other campers were playing poker on the Birds patio. Those being Noah, B, Dawn, and Justin. Dawn to the surprise of Noah had the most cash at this point which was fifty dollars, Noah had thirty, B twenty, and Justin who was relatively bad at poker had ten. Justin at this point decided that it was over and decided that it was time to go all in, but sadly it was not meant to be because Noah with two aces beat out the ten of spades and queen of diamonds since the flop didn't favor Justin's hand Noah won the pot kicking Justin out of the game.
Meanwhile the football game was going on and Lighting's team was driving down the field and with his fifth play hit Ezekiel of all people out of the backfield who scampered into the endzone with the help of Ryan blocking for him. This meant Eva was going to receive the ball which once again went to Tyler who ran around and seemed like he was an unstoppable force with the football. He ran around everyone but Lighting was able to catch up just before he reached the end zone. But it was all for naught because once again Tyler was the hero as he caught a ball from Eva on a curl route which gave Eva's team the win because she scored in two plays compared to Lighting's five. Which left a very angry Lighting complaining about how he should have been a team of one.
Meanwhile the card game was getting heated B at this point was out and Noah had gone all in but, it seemed as if Dawn could read everyone's mind because she as well had gone all in which resulted in a Dawn win and a shocked Noah blubbering about how she won but he never got an answer sense Chris interrupted what everyone else was doing.
"Attention everyone please follow the path behind the Mess Hall to the big metal building behind it for today's challenge," Chris announced through the loudspeaker.
The campers arrived to the newly revealed silver building where Chris and Chef stood. All of the campers took their places at one of the many hanging headsets that were spread out across the room. "Welcome campers to the VR room, where we will host many different challenges that we can not legally do outside in the real world," This earned a small cheer from Sam while some others joked about him actually using the budget for something good which earned some respective chuckles. " Anyways some things you guys should know is that in the VR world it will feel as if you've been in there for twice as long so today's challenge will last three hours but in there it will feel like six. Also for every VR challenge we do it will be at least a double elimination where the losing team will vote off TWO members instead of the traditional one," This earned a lot of groans from many of the campers especially from the former Amazon Courtney since she went out on a double elimination on World Tour as well as former Action players Bridgette and Geoff who also were voted out for making out too much.
"Now today's challenge revolves around the Final Destination movies where, a random person will receive a premonition of a teammate dying and they must prevent it, after three hours is up the team with the most players remaining will win and the team with the fewest remaining lose, any questions," Chris said,
"What's the sabotage this week," LaShawna asked.
"It will be revealed at the end of the challenge," Chris explained earning some complaints from the cast.
"Is there anything preventing us from killing the opposing team," Asked Lighting earning many glares from his fellow competitors.
"No there's nothing stopping you from doing so," Chris said, "No more questions, well then put your headset on and I'll start the challenge," Chris continued as everyone put their headsets on and then Chris pushed a button and everyone was beamed into the VR world.
The machines whirred to life as the Campers all waited to be taken somewhere. To their mutual confusion and disappointment they woke up in the virtual reality room. "Hey what gives?" Leshawna griped. "I thought we were supposed to go somewhere different."
"I think we are in the virtual reality world," Cody mused.
"Chris better be here to explain this!" Courtney complained. "Where is he?!"
One by one the other campers took off their headsets and began wandering around the now empty virtual reality room. "I can sense that this is not the same room we were in," Dawn said.
"No it ain't," Ezekiel said. "It doesn't look like it was even used at all eh."
Alejandro went to the door to the chamber and opened it hesitantly, expecting a rabid bear or something worse at the other end, yet the horrors Al expected never came. The light was bright and many of the cast members stumbled out onto wawanakwa.
The last person to exit, the devilish genius, shut the door behind her once she finally left. The cast all circled around each other and waited for anyone who had an inkling of what to do. "Well I don't know about you but-" Heather started.
She was cut off with the shaking of Wawanakwa. "What is this?!" Justin asked
"A fracking drill!" Katie shrieked. "MY DAD WORKS WITH THIS ALL THE TIME!"
"A what?!" Beardo echoed.
"A FRACKING DRILL! IT'S TOO SMALL FOR AN ISLAND LIKE THIS!" Cameron panicked. "We need to get out of here!" He fled into the forest with many others as a giant fracture appeared in the ground, splitting the circle in half. Sam and Dakota reached to each other as their patch of ground widened but they were just out of reach for a true rescue on either end.
Duncan, Gwen, Manitoba Smith, Jasmine, Brick, Izzy, and ten others were trapped on the side closest to the island shorelines. As Zoey joined Manitoba in running away she glanced back to see five people, Owen, Sky, B, Lightning, and Cody, fall into the widening crevasse. Dawn had urged many others to join them but he could sense that too many contestants had failed to think properly and ran into the forest. Her aura reading skills failed her as she ran into a tree and knocked herself out, no one else in sight.
Duncan and Manitoba had taken charge in getting people onto boats but to both of their dismay it would have taken five minute to get them started. Jasmine looked back at Camp Wawanakwa to see the 1000 foot cliff crumble. Wreckage from the cliff caused giant waves to capsize both of the boats Duncan and Manitoba were working on. The island sank just as all the boats collapsed, killing them all.
As the vision ended Alejandro threw open the door with ferocity. "NO TIEMPO PARA EXPLICAR!" he shouted. Many of the contestants followed him out of the virtual reality room to the docks. All had piled onto five separate boats, one per team, and waited hesitantly as the island slowly began to shake. The boats were finally active and all five teams fled the sinking island. Though waves from the thousand foot cliff threatened to knock them off, they were mainly unharmed.
"Sha what was that?" Lightning asked his team as they floated next to his other members.
"We all got that," Ryan half asked and half confirmed.
"The easy part is over," Gwen noted ruefully. "I think we have to head into that warehouse."
She pointed to a giant building with a sign that said Wywynykwy Warehouse. A dock directly in front of the warehouse led to the interior, which undoubtedly would be larger on the inside, much larger. Duncan, Heather, Jasmine, Brick, and Ryan alltied their boats up and disembarked. The teams all followed them into a vestibule. Inside the warehouse they saw that five doors were with their team logos, and they walked into their respective ones.
"Even in this virtual world, I can sense that too many animals suffered an unfortunate demise," Dawn mulled over.
"Oh Dawn, it's okay, they're not real," Dakota tried to comfort.
"But isn't that worse?!" Dawn exclaimed. "They are not real meaning they can be subjected to the same pain over and over and over again! I just need a moment please."
Dakota and Sam backed away awkwardly as they saw the remains of Wawanakwa sink further down into the lake. It was a surreal sight but to Sam he could only marvel at the technology presented forward.
Jasmine and Beth had taken to exploring their small raised encampment of the warehouse all around the maze of boxes that called it home. "I wonder how much it took Chris to program all of this," Jasmine mused.
"Probably way more than he's paying Chef," Beth jiped.
The two shared a laugh before Beth doubled over, an intense vision flashing across her head. She could see out of the corner of her eye a forklift and a lever being pulled. A flash of red was dragged under the wheels and squashed flat. As the vision replayed she heard echoing over and over "...idol…"
"We have to go down there!" Beth shouted.
Jasmine looked at the shorter farmer as she slid down a ladder and navigated the maze of shelves. A wrench fell from a hook high above and hit a lever on a patrolling forklift. The forklift turned into a corner, clearly on the agenda. The two girls soon bumped into Scott. "...are you really looking for an Idol in here?!" Jasmine shouted.
"So what if I am?" Scott sneered. "Any idol here cannot be used in real life. I'm not used to this fancy pants stuff but if an idol is here then an idol is an idol."
"Scott you should move!" Beth commanded. "I had a vision and-"
"Who are you, Dawn?" Scott snarked. "We all escaped that island so we should be fine."
Beth grabbed hold of Scott's hand and tried to pull him away but the redhead wouldn't budge. She tried to get Jasmine to help her out but she was cut off by a falling plank. The forklift turned the corner and rapidly accelerated and crashed into the two country teens. Yet Beth was able to escape unscathed but the weaselly Scott was dragged under the forklift.
Beth opened her eyes to see a smear of red all along the floor. It was though Scott's body was being dragged by the forklift. She stepped forward, only to slip on one of Scott's ugly shoes. She hesitantly helped Jasmine move the plank away as they witnessed the forklift turning corners some hundred yards away. The two could barely hold in their vomit.
Confesional, Beth
Why does it have to be so realistic?!
Confessional, Chris
This virtual reality tech is mainly used in interactive horror exhibits so no expense was spared in the virtual mutilation of our favorite contestants. And besides, who doesn't want to see Scott die?
Jasmine could barely catch her breath and regain her balance when Beth suddenly yanked out of the way. One of many planks above them had fallen on her legs and given her a long gash. She screamed in pain and used Beth as a crutch to bring herself up. "That plank would have been worse," Beth tried to justify.
"If you saved me, then I'm next, right?" Jasmine asked.
"Yeah," Beth hesitantly said. "I don't think that it's good to walk away."
"Then we better get back to the others," Jasmine sighed, looking up at the latter the two of them took down.
The Horses had just gotten hungry and sent out Zoey, Mike, Duncan, Courtney, and Cameron out for a couple of foodstuffs. "If you find spray tan just whisk it over to me!" Anne Maria shouted.
The unlikely five had started a nice conversation regarding the tropes of horror films. Cameron's definition of horror was Courage the Cowardly Dog, much to Duncan's humor. "That show was scary," Mike said sympathetically. "But I was never the most scared of it." The conversation came to a halt as they heard hooks above them, being dragged over a series of boxes and dropping at random intervals.
"Weird," Duncan noted.
"Let's just be careful guys," Zoey started to say.
"This isn't real though," Courtney said dismissively. "It's just a lot of visual effects." She kicked over a box annoyed and revealed a tunnel towards another part of the warehouse. "Let's check this out," the lawyer in training recommended as several hooks dropped down. They seemed to be moving at a much faster speed and were heading directly towards them.
Zoey had pushed herself against Duncan and took the hook straight into her chest. Mike screamed at the realism of the horror and tried to run away. "WHAT DID ZOEY DO?!" Cameron screeched.
"It must have been her premonition!" Courtney shouted. "OH-OH!"
Confessional, Courtney
The lawyer threw up for a good fifteen seconds. She turned to the camera and explained "YOU COULD SEE HER LUNGS!"
"That means...that means I'm next, right?" Duncan said worriedly.
"Must be!" Mike said, trembling in fear. He grabbed onto Cameron tightly and wrapped around him like a teddy bear. "Duncan, just tell us who you see.
"If the danger is up there, then maybe it'll be safer in this tunnel," Courtney recommended. She looked to her teammates in confirmation and they all nodded.
She took the first step into the tunnel and found that it was barely five feet by 2 feet tall. It would have to do. She got on her hands and knees as Duncan seemingly stared at her shapely butt. "Uhh, Duncan?" Mike tried to interrupt.
To no avail, Duncan remained fixated on Courtney as she awkwardly crawled forward into the tunnel, passing over squares of precariously placed floorboards in the dimly lit crawl space. He inched forward, having gotten a vision of Courtney and green jelly or poison or whatever it was. The Ogre stepped forward and crept up on Courtney, hesitantly. The ground collapsed just as she stepped onto a big green plate that seemed to give away. She fell head first halfway through the hole and propped herself against the sides of the tunnel.
"PRINCESS!" Duncan screamed as he lunged towards her legs. "Help me!"
Mike and Cameron ran to Duncan as he slowly sank into the floor. Though they almost lost their grip, Mike's torn shirt finally fell away and the stronger Vito aided them in lifting the lawyer up. "Mike," Duncan said, out of breath as he tried to slap himself out of it.
"No worries, when you mess with the Vito's friends he's sure to snap em up," Vito cockily said before curling up to the shaking courtney.
"Green...Green...Green jelly!" she shouted.
"Don't worry dame, I would hate to see such a beautiful tanned wonder shake."
"Alright Vito, I think that you've helped enough," Duncan said frustrated. He grabbed a shirt from a crate and wrestled Vito to the ground, shoving the shirt onto him.
"...Guys," Courtney said meekly. "I think Anne Maria's next. Something about fire and water and ice and salt."
"Well we have to help her!" Cameron said, running off.
Confessional, Mike
I'm surprised that Duncan got me back to me! Vito's always been the most problematic. I just take off my shirt and he's there. I think I was like ten when he first showed up...hehe...stupid puberty…
"Well excuse me if I know next to nothing about horror movies!" Heather sneered. She, Alejandro, Justin, Katie, and Sadie were looking at Owen's bloody corpse. The poor big guy had a giant gash through his throat from a rabid rat that came through the vents.
"What exactly did you see?!" Katie asked through tears.
"Something chittering, something slimy, and then a whip but I didn't know what that meant! What kind of movie is this anyway?!"
"Final Destination," Justin said. "The gist of it is that we all have premonitions and we have to prevent them from happening. Death caught up to Owen from the looks of it."
"So who is-" Heather started. As she continued she received a vision of a giant metal plate falling from the sky. It wobbled in the air and bisected Katie through the middle. She snapped out of the vision and looked to the ceiling, finding that one of the hooks transporting things were dangerously close to failure. One of them had a metal plate. "Katie, Sadie, Justin, move!"
The skinny BFFFL looked up and saw the plate falling vertically. The sharpness gleamed in the sunlight as the plate came dangerously close to her. She dove out of the way just in time. The plate drove three inches into the ground as Sadie shrieked loudly. Katie looked to Heather with a heavy breath and fear in her eyes.
"Who's next?" Justin asked fearfully.
Katie's eyes seemed to gloss over as she saw, only once, an image of Justin's green shirt being whisked away by a rope. "You!" Katie shouted.
Justin looked confounded as a rogue crate came whipping down a ramp, a rope attached to the receptacle threatening to whip Justin's head clean off. The model ducked back but the rope still wrapped around his neck. The crate's momentum continued and Justin was dragged by his neck through the lower floor of the warehouse.
The teens scrambled to rescue the model but the crate was travelling at too high of a velocity to ensure safe stopping. Alejandro found that out the hard way when he was given a glancing blow from the rolling crate. Justin's face turned blue and his eyes were just about closed when Heather jumped on top of the crate with a hatchet. Thinking quickly she lowered the hatchet onto the rope tying Justin up and freed him. The remaining teens looked out of Breath as Justin looked to catch his breath.
Confessional, Justin
I bet I looked like hell in that warehouse. That rope was no joke. I'm glad that I'm still majorly intact from that incident. I'm definitely not stepping around no rope materials anytime soon.
The floor beneath the Giraffes was slowly collapsing as they all ran forward. It was thanks to Gwen having the curse of the vision that they all ran forward, but the goth was too out of breath to entirely reveal who the main victim was, but the goth remained looking intently at both Bridgette and Cody.
Geoff dove into the side of a crate and leaned over, holding his hand out for others as they all ran past. Ryan was the first to grab on and he hoisted himself up. "BRIDGETTE!" he shouted. The blond surfer turned and hopped onto the ledge, just as the floor exposed wires at her feet.
Soon enough all eight members were holed up in a crate that was much bigger than it looked but it was still too small for a lot of them. As the wires died out, Bridgette stepped out first. "I think it's good," she proclaimed.
She held her hand out for Cody and Ryan to step out of the crate. It was then that Cody nearly fell through a metal plate that exposed a lengthy fall to a catwalk some fifty feet below. "We got you buddy!" Bridgette said. Beardo, Ezekiel ,Trent, Gwen, and finally Geoff all jumped from the crate and waited for Cody to catch his breath. "I think it was...I think it was Cody," Gwen finally said.
"So now I'm next to have a vision?" Cody asked.
No sooner had he asked that question when he immediately went slack. Bridgette, Ryan, Geoff, and Trent were in the middle of what looked to be a dogpile as what seemed to be a nail bomb blew up, sending the nails into the back of someone's skull. To his lack of knowledge, Trent, Geoff, Bridgette, and Ryan had all surrounded him as his eyes slowly shot open.
Gwen, ever observant, saw a crate of weapons placed next to the crate they were all holed up into. "Uhh Guys," Gwen started.
Cody looked up to see that right behind Ryan was a munitions chest. He tried pulling at Ryan to get him to duck but he couldn't get a grip on time, and he was too weak to move Ryan's considerable bulk downward. The bomb went off and Ryan slumped forward, five nails driven into his head and a further two down the back of his neck. He fell onto Cody, who let out a scream as Ryan's virtual blood trickled down.
"...Let's…" Geoff started before dying off. "Let's get him off of you Codester."
"...good idea," Bridgette said, snapping out of her trance. "Now what?"
"This place isn't safe but it's better to keep moving," Trent observed. "Cody, I think you may have another vision so I think Beardo and I can carry you so that you don't collapse in a vulnerable place."
Cody looked to the big guy and smiled in reassurance. Beardo shrugged his shoulders and looked at Ezekiel. This was gonna be a long challenge.
Confessional, Cody
I get that it's not real but video games and virtual reality are scary! That's not me being a wimp that's just common sense!
The Birds were currently straining to catch their breath. Brick took a glance towards Scarlett, who had barely avoided getting her arm chopped off with some falling rebar, as she looked at her arm inquisitively. Scarlett immediately went limp and her teammates became alert. Izzy sprung into action, running around the circle of her teammates as she cackled about playing a big game of mousetrap.
"Is she alright?" Sugar asked with a drawl.
"Sugar," Noah explained tiredly. "Have you not been paying attention?"
The pageant queen shook her head sadly.
"She's having a vision and unless we do something about that vision, one of us will die," Noah explained for the umpteenth time. Sugar looked at Noah with a look of incredulity and tried to comprehend what the egghead told her. "So if you see any signs of danger then-"
He was abruptly yanked by Sugar and he felt the splash of concrete against his back. "Like that?" Sugar said dimly. "Why didn't the genius say anything about it?"
Scarlett strained to catch her breath as Noah stared at Sugar incredulously. "We should keep moving, has everyone caught their breath?" Noah recommended.
Scarlett's snarl disappeared from her face as she and Brick stood up. "Yes," Scarlett said. "It is most pertinent that the eight of us continue on our misadventure through this warehouse. If I recall correctly then Noah is next to have a vision. It would be most opportune to have him have a vision in a less dangerous place."
Confesional, Scarlett
I enjoy Scott's strategy so much so that it may in fact be the best. It is easy for a woman of my build and mental capacity to simply dupe others into believing that I am the weakest link, especially in virtual reality. However it seems like Noah has also subscribed to that theory.
DJ kicked B away with startling force and the silent genius collapsed into a plate of tupperware just as the fan high above came crashing down. Dawn and Dakota and Beth rushed over to DJ to check on any wounds he may have gotten.
The silent genius feebly raised up a hand but otherwise made no stir as the fan exploded, sending a blade into Beth's stomach. Both Dawn and Dakota glanced at B as he winced. "I sense his aura is quite active."
Confessional, B
He hangs his head in shame but looks to the camera as though he's saying 'No duh'
Dakota and Dawn backed away from B as he pointed to Dakota. "What does that mean?" Dakota asked worriedly.
Dawn wasn't able to react in time as a screw shot into Dakota's throat. She choked on it and stumbled into the tupperware, where she was further buried by the receptacles.
Confessional, Dawn
These are trying times. All challenges are very much trying yet this one is the most so far. The funny thing is that this isn't real.
"B?" Dawn asked. "I propose that you get up and as soon as you get a vision of someone dying that you push them away."
The genius held up a thumb in confirmation. He got up from the tupperware, holding his head in pain, and jump-tackled Jasmine from a spilling oil slick that would have caused her to slip into a broken set of planks. "Crikey," Jasmine muttered. It was going to be a long day.
Anne Maria, Dave, Sky, and Tyler were trying their best to have a conversation but the noises around the warehouse caused Dave to be on high alert. "Jeez shortstuff," Anne Maria griped. "That's the fifth time you've jumped."
"This place is too disorganized!" Dave shouted anxiously.
"But bro," Tyler started. "You survived Pahkitew, and that place was filthy."
"Urgh, don't remind me," Sky and Dave said at the same time.
Confessional, Sky
Pahkitew was so dirty it dirtied our minds. It says something when Wawanakwa is much cleaner, right?
Anne Maria rolled her eyes as Courtney barreled down the corner. "LOOK OUT!" Courtney screeched as she slipped through an oil slick. Duncan and Mike chased after her as Cameron tried his best to run up and warn the tanned girl. "Anne!"
All of a sudden, the Horses turned around, with a loud clang indicating danger was on its way. Anne Maria was the first to bolt from the release of several giant tires. "Anne Maria wait!" Cameron tried to warn her.
He, Dave, and Sky simply ducked below a lip in the warehouse. Tyler had jumped high but not high enough to escape the tires. He got a grip on the rubber and leaped to a hanging shelf, where his impressive finger strength gave him just enough force to lift himself up. Anne Maria wasn't so lucky however.
Her pouf ran against a piece of over hanging wood. What she considered to be her pride and joy went up in flames instantly. Anne Maria's scream of pain echoed through the hallway as she seamlessly avoided the rolling tires from high above. Her luck ended when the last of the tires rolled past her. She had tripped over her own two feet into a puddle of machine oil. She caught fire.
Confessional, Cameron
But Anne Maria wasn't running anywhere fast enough to set her hair aflame! Either way she shouldn't have caught on fire! This makes no scientific sense!
Mike and Duncan had gotten Courtney stabilized as they all rejoined the remaining members. The former CIT had averted her gaze but not her nose from her teammates charred corpse. "Tyler…" Courtney murmured. "We should…"
Mike gasped and Svetlana came out. "YA zdes', chtoby spasti tebya, krasnyy odetyy tovarishch!" Svetlana said.(I am here to save you red clad comrade) The rest of the cast looked at each other with a blank look on their face as Svetlana flipped through the shelves and grabbed Tyler by the wrist. The two of them clung onto a ceiling light as Courtney barked warnings from her position. They had avoided one of the lights that blew up and Tyler was set down when Svetlana placed him just behind Duncan.
Courtney still pushed Tyler from behind Duncan, just in time to avoid a garage spring that had been set off. The extra distance nudged Duncan ever so slightly and though dazed, Duncan was able to remain standing. "Thanks dudette!" Tyler thanked Svetlana.
Svetlana gasped and Mike looked at the rest of his team. "What happened?"
"Svetlana," Cameron, Dave, Sky, and Courtney said simply.
Confessional, Svetlana
Da, it was me!
Confessional, Mike
sigh* I guess Zoey being gone just brought the others out of me. At least they're helpful this time around
Confessional, Chester
Eh? Did that young whippersnapper say I might not have been useful?
Confessional, Mike
...Chester still helps even in his own way.
Sugar had just pushed Noah out of the way of a falling waterbed. The bed exploded on impact and drenched most of the team halfway up their body. Noah and Scarlett both shivered at the cold water running up their legs. Brick had taken off his boots and set it down on a stationary forklift as the rest tried to dry themselves up. "Yeesh, that was close," Sugar complained. She rested her hand on something firm, only to back away when she realized it was Brick's butt. "Sorry soldier!" she said alert.
"What?" Brick asked confused. He swung his arm around and hit a lever on the forklift.
"Alert", Noah called out to the redhead genius, who splashed in the water as she backed away. "Thanks Noah," the redhead called astutely.
He was about to reply when he heard the forklift whir up and turn around. The egghead made a splash as he dove out of the way. Scarlett, however, was not so lucky as the forklift's forks turned into her stomach. She was hoisted some five feet off the ground and her stomach was brutally opened. The evil genius vomited blood and she was carried off into the warehouse.
Confessional, Scarlett
The pain was terrible. I must use this technology for my own gain. Hopefully I can use it first on that lazy egghead. He gives us geniuses bad names.
So far, the Giraffes were doing well, having only lost Ryan to an impromptu weapon bomb, but they were on high alert as Trent had just received a vision. "Trent?" Cody asked for the fifth time in a minute.
"Lay off him Cody," Gwen said in a snippy tone. "It's his first one, and if I recall you weren't exactly that urgent with Ryan."
"Cody had his first time too," Geoff spoke up. The team threatened to devolved into a further scuffle when Trent finally broke out of his funk and pushed Ezekiel out of the way of a swinging sign. The musician was flung into an open fridge that toppled over. Hesitantly, the three remaining underdogs pushed their way in front of the crowd, only to stop when they saw blood coming out the bottom.
"...damn," Gwen said, breaking the silence.
Confessional, Ezekiel
Shoot eh, to think that could have been me! Are deaths in this movie series always this bad?
Ezekiel was the first to break from the shared funk of the team. "Bridgette I think we just need to keep moving, right?"
"...yes," Bridgette said. "If you have any clues tell us as soon as pos-"
The surfer walked as she tried her best to keep the rest of her team involved. Ezekiel was dutifully listening to her but he was unable to fill in the blank as Bridgette had fifteen gallons of acid dumped over her head. Her screams of pain filled the warehouse as Cody, Zeke, Beardo, Geoff, and Gwen all averted their eyes. She disappeared behind site and presumably collapsed. Her shoes were the last thing visible.
"...let's not go that way, eh?" Ezekiel said. He suddenly grew silent as he took Geoff's hat off. The rest of the team cleared a circle of about five feet from Geoff as he moved away. Though his feet were crushed by a falling anvil, he had avoided a much worse fate.
Confessional, Geoff
After that splinter in Total Drama Island I don't think that anything can faze me...except for hail man, that's still scary as hell.
"So no talking?" Geoff recommended .
The rest of the team seemed to be in agreement as Geoff steered his team away from Trent's fridge, Bridgette's shoes, and the fallen anvil. The challenge just seemed to be getting longer.
It didn't take long for the Horses to witness yet another death of theirs. Though Ella had received a premonition of Sammy dying, they were on opposite parts of the warehouse yet within clear eyesight. The blond cheerleader had no time to respond to her anxious teammates as she hesitantly walked forward to avoid what she perceived to be a threat from behind. Unbeknown to her, she had shuffled forward into a freeze-dry freezer. Through the glass her team saw her froze in mere milliseconds and fall over, shattering into an infinite amount of tiny red pieces.
Ella gulped as she turned to Alejandro, barely eeking out a warning. The nimble latin backed up against a crate where a revving chainsaw was threatening to break out. With the alert provided by the princess, Alejandro was able to dodge the chainsaw's blade as it barely nipped the top of his head, causing only slight bleeding.
Confessional, Alejandro
Gracias a dios que virtual reality simulation didn't really provide much worse of a wound. And muchas gracias a dios que the simulation's injuries doesn't really translate to the real world. I would hate for my own temple to fall to such ruin at a young age.
Confessional, Justin
Is it bad that I wanted to see Al's pretty little head mangled? I feel like somewhere my dream would have come true
Alejandro took a look at Justin, clearly sensing that the Hawaiian model had a lot of animosity towards him, but clearly said nothing. Alejandro turned the other cheek and held his shirt to his head, earning an appreciative squeal from the BFFFLs. Suddenly he turned and dove towards Justin, knocking him to the ground while an activated treadmill launched a weight towards his stomach.
Justin made a move to get up but Alejandro forced him down as five more weights were launched in the air. The two attractive teens looked at each other before Justin pushed Alejandro off of him. "Thanks," he grumbled.
The Birds had only lost Scarlett in the time many of their rivals lost at least two others. They had taken a breather and somehow, in this virtual world, Leshawna, Sugar, and even Eva had grown hungry.
Confessional, Eva
Virtual Reality isn't a field of athletics I'm familiar with...would it even be considered athletics at this point? Was it Noah that said 'Reality is relative and is what we make of it?" Why do old philosophers have such stupid quotes to remember? Ah forget this!
Leshawna had opened a crate of granola bars and was currently diving in to grab a massive chunk of them. "Leshawna wait!" Izzy tried to interrupt.
The booty-licious queen stopped for just a moment, and where her head was a rat leaped out of the crate directly where her head was. Things weren't as simple as that though. The mutant rat landed on her meaty arm and bit fiercely. Leshawna screamed as she staggered back, pulling at the rat.
If it weren't for Izzy Leshawna would have been taken out of the virtual reality simulation. The lunatic grabbed ahold of the rat by the neck and swung it around, killing it. As she did so, a message appeared on the protein bars. "Death's books have been balanced. Breather for sixteen minutes."
Confessional, Leshawna
That girl is some sort of crazy but it's the good sort of crazy. I don't really want to cross her in any way, I still remember Action
Confessional, Izzy
This virtual reality doesn't mean *! IZZY OF THE ORACLE IS STILL ABLE TO SEE IN THE FUTURE MORE THAN DAWN AND EVEN CHRIS! MWAHAHAHAHAHAHA (gives camera a firework)
Dawn and Jasmine, the last two members of their team, had just lost B to a sacrifice. The pixie girl was pushed out of the way from a conveyor belt that led to a trash compactor. She very much appreciated the notion but just like her teammates' previous deaths the aura overload had taken a massive toll on her. "You aight my friend?" Jasmine inquired.
"Yes...but I do suggest that you...you...you…"
"Duck?"
The aura whisperer nodded quietly and Jasmine ducked to Dawn's height. It was no easy feat for the massive girl but Jasmine managed. Five weights flew over her head from high above at startling speeds. Jasmine and Dawn glanced up, not really noticing that they had all landed on a vertical bandsaw and dislodged it from the safety. "Thanks mate, that was closer than a dust storm," Jasmine said, standing up quickly.
Her legs strained as she stood up once again. Dawn tried her best to speak up yet it was all for naught as the final half pound weight launched into Jasmine's head. The survivalist stumbled to the side underneath the falling buzzsaw. She tried her best to regain her balance yet simply could not stand up in time as the saw traveled down her midline.
All Dawn could do at that point was wince. She was alone and she needed to last in order to have a fighting chance.
Confessional, Katie Sadie
(Katie) This challenge was so disgusting!
(Sadie) Oh my God I know!
(Katie) When that tall girl died that was so gross!
(Sadie) So gross!
(Katie) That meant we were all in the same warehouse, right?
(Sadie) So right!
The Rabbits looked where the weights all launched to see Dawn all alone. Jasmine's half body slumped over and Dawn hesitated to look up. She used a crate to prop herself up and as a sign flew in front of the Rabbit's line of sight she disappeared. "Well, it looks like our nature loving friend is all alone," Heather noted.
She was pulled aside by the latin charmer with surprising force. "Are you thinking what I am thinking?" Alejandro remarked.
Heather looked at the weights scattered around Jasmine's body and an evil smirk grew around her face. "Since we can't find Dawn we can also try our best to kill others," Heather grinned.
Alejandro mirrored her smirk as Justin bolted to Ella. Stupidly, he caught the flaming hot glass that almost landed primly on the princess' head. He threw it towards Sadie, who threw it towards Katie, who threw it towards Justin, who threw it towards Ella, who threw it towards Heather. Luckily, she caught it with a fire proof blanket from a chest.
Heather and Alejandro noticed out of the corner of their eye, a certain pageant queen looking from a shelf up above. The two villains turned to each other and leered at Sugar. The pageant queen was unable to maneuver her girth around the tiny maze of boxes. Heather threw the still flaming hot glass towards Sugar despite Ella's objections. In the blink of an eye Brick threw a shield upwards, blocking the glass.
Yet, in the world of virtual reality, the momentum from the glass nudged Sugar just enough and pushed her into a low hanging shelf. The back of her head was sliced open and the pageant queen drew her last breath in the world of virtual reality.
Confessional, Sugar
I don't get how Heather, who by all means should be a beautiful pageant queen, could do something so ugly! Maybe she ain't even gonna win this pageant! She can't horde two pageant tiaras, especially when a true queen is right here!
Enraged, Brick picked up the flaming hot glass and threw it towards Heather. The glass burned her immediately and blinded the dragon queen. She stumbled back, holding her eyes in pain, and she fell over the railing, stopping when Alejandro grabbed her heels. It was all for naught as Heather slipped forward further and further, eventually falling into an open forge.
Alejandro, Ella, and Brick averted their eyes before Justin ran forward and tried to push Brick off. The soldier was nothing if not stable and deflected Justin off of him with ease. Though strong, Justin wasn't trained in fighting, and it didn't take much for Brick to push Justin off of the elevated walkway. Again, the male model was strangled, but this time he could not survive.
Confessional, Ella
As violent as total drama can get I can tell that we are all of good hearts and want to fight for the true heroes of our lives, ourselves. I just feel guilty to subject both Justin and Heather to that notion.
Upon looking at Alejandro, Sadie, Katie, and Ella, Brick promptly bolted out into a run. His shrill scream reached through the entire warehouse as Ella finally managed to get Sadie out of the way of a malfunctioning tennis ball machine that was way too fast.
Also hearing Brick's panicked screams were Beardo, Cody, and Gwen. Zeke had pushed Beardo out of the way of a falling ladder. Just below them was a hapless Noah, who fell over his feet, falling over. Where his head was, the ladder crushed his calves.
Confessional, Noah
I'm sixty-five percent sure that a ladder was used in the main final destination series. Leave it to Chris to never be truly original. Must not have been in the budget.
Ella, Alejandro, Katie, and Sadie had finally caught up to Brick when all five of them collapsed. As Brick struggled to remain conscious, he saw the warehouse shut down. In the massive virtual play area, the remaining members all collapsed.
The surviving players were suddenly pulled out of the virtual reality machines and the remaining players were then told by Chris through an automated message to head to the Mess Hall where the already eliminated campers were so they could get the results of the challenge. The surviving campers walked their way to the mess hall where all of the "dead" campers waited for them along with Chris who stood at the front of the Mess Hall.
"Welcome back survivors to the real world, congrats on surviving but I have some BIG news to inform you guys about," Chris announced,
"Just get on with it Chris," Gwen said clearly annoyed with the sadistic host.
"Well first off I would like to announce the sabotage for this challenge," Chris said earning multiple groans of annoyance from the campers.
"The sabotage was that the first person to die from both the losing and winning teams would switch teams and, sense the Doves had the least people remaining and the Birds had the most they will be swapping players," Chris said pausing before announcing who was switching teams because not everyone was fully aware of who died first for each team. "Scarlett and Scott pack your bags you are switching teams," Chris announced earning some slight cheers from Jasmine, B, and Dawn, "Now sense Scarlett was originally on the winning team she will have immunity from the vote this week as well so, Doves I will see you all at the ceremony in about ten minutes," Chris continued.
The Doves considered that revelation to be a bitter sweet one. True they were excited at losing Scott but many were hesitant at having another rogue redhead on their team.
Elimination Ceremony
"Doves, welcome to another ceremony. Like I explained earlier this is a double elimination so, when TWO of you have not received your marshmallow you must walk the dock of shame and take the boat of losers and never ever ever come back," Chris explained, "Now the votes were pretty spread out tonight but let's see who gets a marshmallow and who doesn't,"
"Scarlett, since you just switched teams you have immunity for the night," Chris said tossing a marshmallow to the psychotic genius.
"Those also safe include Jasmine, B, and Dawn," The three each caught their marshmallows before Chris continued.
"Also safe is DJ," Chris said tossing a marshmallow to the big friendly giant.
"The three of you all received some votes tonight. Beth unlike most of your teammates you actually did something in the challenge but it seems your past performances haven't helped you any. Sam straight up man you have just been straight lazy, and finally Dakota you don't have a great track record either," Chris explained to the three in question who all looked on in fear.
"Sam you are safe tonight," Chris said tossing the final marshmallow to a distraught Sam who just let the white morsel hit his face and fall to the ground.
Dakota who shockingly took the news well went to comfort her gamer boyfriend. "Sam it's alright, win it for us ok and even if you don't win, I'll still love you ok?" Dakota said giving Sam a peck on the lips which seemed to bring out of his trance.
"I'll win it for us Dakota you have my word," Sam said standing up and giving the blonde model a big hug.
Meanwhile Beth was busy hugging DJ, Jasmine and some of her other friends that were sad she was going home. "We'll miss you Beth," DJ said crying giving a hug to the petite girl.
"Alright enough sentimental bull crap dock of shame both of you," Chris said sending the two girls to the boat of losers to be carded off to most likely Playa de Losers.
Confessional, Sam
I regret voting for Beth, she didn't deserve to go home I only voted for her because she had the best chance of going home over Dakota. But I wonder who voted for me though.
Confessional, Jasmine
I voted for Sam sadly two close friends went home in the process but I still have B and Dawn and DJ seems nice but he seems like he's laying extremely low this season.
Confessional, DJ
I'm just laying low this season and voting with the pack, I'm trying to go the distance and I need to make it to merge to do so.
Confessional, Scarlett
These plebeians will all fall, but only Jasmine truly knows what I'm capable of but I'll need to find a way to get rid of her without causing a lot of drama.
"Well that was a slightly over dramatic ceremony but will Scarlett break the Doves path of losing or will they continue to lose more players, will DJ actually do anything this season or will he just sink into the background like a lot of the characters here, will another alliance form on the Doves squad and will the Exterminators become the most powerful alliance with SIX members, only time will tell, find out next time on Total Drama Island Revived," Chris said to the zooming out camera.
Votes
Dakota: Sam and I have agreed to vote for Beth, its probably our best shot on keeping both of us here
Sam: I'm voting for Beth, it sucks but it's Dakota and I's best shot at staying.
Dawn: I'm sorry but I vote for Dakota. Sorry Sam
Jasmine: Two of my friends are on the block tonight, as much as I don't want to, I vote Sam I just feel he's a weak link
B: Holds up a sign that reads Dakota
DJ: I don't really wanna vote anyone off but I guess I vote for Dakota
Scarlett: Dakota is by far the weakest link on this team along with Beth and Sam but they each carry their own strengths, Dakota carries none. Sam has at least half a brain and Beth at least offers a decent social game that if I were to align with her she could dig me out of a whole
Beth: I guess I vote for Dakota, there's really no other option
Trygve11: Thank you all for reading but seriously chill with the weird reviews they need to stop I would rather have constructive and more theories than anything and Guests I do hope you get some accounts because if you want this story to thrive four favorites and five book marks aren't going to get it done lol hope you all enjoyed.
Hopps: I absolutely love the final destination series and I hope this twist on the final destination series makes it a great read. WellTo the readers thank you so much for your help and continued support.
Reviews:
Dice Twenty: Glad you enjoyed the bonding, Myself and Hopps have definitely expanded in that regard on this story and I will try not to rush the plot too much I mean with so many characters it's hard to and yes in hindsight I could have introduced Geoff and Sammy better but, I'm trying to do better in that regard, I mean hindsight is twenty/twenty for a reason and keep the theories coming would love to see your thought process on why you guessed who you guessed.
Hopps: Trust us, we have no intentions to rush the plot. Thank you for the glowing thoughts on Amy's battle. It was a whole lot of fun to write and it's readers like you who motivate us.
Glucose: well you've been active lately, first to my early chapters I will be the first to admit that they weren't the greatest and I wish they were better, next to your point on Ryan being faster than the likes of Jo he is a really good distance runner if the run was more like twenty yards or shorter Jo would win because he isn't the most agile but, he has great endurance as well as speed. I also corrected the episode thing surprised I never noticed it until you said it. Glad you like the BFFL alliance I always felt that they would be an interesting an alliance and as I write this, they have been growing on me more and more, Alejandro will appear more but with so many cast members it's kind of hard but I'm trying man, and the montages were just there to explain some other happenings because the chapter was so long already and you can only write that type of challenge so much without getting bored and running out of ideas. I will admit Geoff and Sammy weren't brought up as good as they could have been, and Topher I think is a good physical threat if he wasn't focused on stealing Chris's job I mean he was pretty successful even without a social game. And I felt the confessionals were fine but I've been working with Hopps to make them better, and I felt that balance thing was fine I mean there hasn't been anything so far to test that aside from the maze and even then I doubt anyone would be balanced for that.
Hopps: Well, thank you for your harsh words and profound criticism. We'll take those words into consideration. There are a lot of plots that we want to include and they may be rushed but hopefully it'll be worth your while eventually.
Guest: Neat play on words with the I wanna be Tracer song
Hopps: thanks for getting that song on my head
Guest: Sorry man just me and Hopps on this story but I'm sure people will be your friends if you ask
Hopps: Seconded
Guest: Looks like you were wrong on Sky, try again my man.
Hopps: Ryan as the Saboteur? Interesting
Guest: Your review was weird but cool
Hopps': Trygve's response was weird but cool
Guest: Dude that is just weird
Hopps: no comment
Ship: I don't think either of them are gay
Hopps: no comment
Dennis Da Menice: Glad you enjoyed the story?
Hopps: no comment
Duncney Ship: I'm inclined to agree that yes those two should have stuck together but if it helps you any Gwen and Duncan aren't a couple anymore.
Hopps: I totally understand how you feel. They were honestly the best couple from Island but they need some ironing out, hopefully we'll have a good iron for you.
