Welcome back everyone, nothing huge to announce. However the discord is growing so I hope y'all join it (on profile page) otherwise nothing huge to report except I hope you enjoy
"Welcome back viewing audience to Total Drama. Last time Anne Maria was sent home after a dramatic bonfire ceremony. Multiple people recieved votes, Cameron, Dave and Cortney were all on the hot seat last night. And Ezekiel spilled the beans to Ryan about Gwen's plan to give him the boot, will Gwen be able to execute the plan or will Ryan succeed. Who will go home today, will the Giraffes ever give someone the boot again and will I get a bigger paycheck? All to come on this episode of Total Drama Island Revived."
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, Bridgette and Ezekiel were sitting on some rocks talking strategy, while Gwen watched them from a distance and not too far away Duncan, Cameron, Zoey, Dave, Sky and Mike were doing the same, but a silhouette of Anne Maria could be seen in the distance.
You asked me what I wanted to be
Amy and Sammy were battling it out on the row boat which then promptly fell over the waterfall, which showed a scared Cameron attempting to cross until the log plummeted below him.
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 and a disappointed Amy staring at them.
I wanna be famous.
Then the camera switched to Bridgette and Geoff having their backs turned with anger in their eyes with Topher egging them on, 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 exchanging harsh words and waving their arms around, while Sky is trying to make up with Dave but Dave stops her and wraps his arms around her in a hug.
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
Rodney was failing miserably to ask out Eva who promptly punched him.
I'll get there one day.
Sam was goofing off in the VR room while Dakota watched amicably.
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, then the three give each other multiple high fives while Scarlett stared angrily in the distance.
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 see Geoff and Ryan giving an awkward fist bump, while a wary Gwen watches the pair.
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.
Chris and the saboteur in a non disclosable location.
"Today your sabotage is a reversed map. We are doing a retread of the camping challenge from Season One. You can choose from any of the teams," Chris explained.
"I'll give that to the Rabbits, I wanna let the Giraffe problem simmer for a little while longer," The saboteur decided.
"Excellent choice, now move along."
The sounds of a blaring alarm came from the boys' shared bedroom. With his boots all aligned, Brick leapt energetically out of bed and tied his shoes on. "Come on Brick," Noah grumbled. "It's only six-o'clock!"
"No can do my bookwormy friend," Brick said. "I've overslept past the sunrise and I need to get a workout in before it becomes too bright."
Lightning rolled over in his bed before he fell out and similarly rose up. "Oh I am totally getting my DPA today! I am so going to school you!
"In your dreams soldier," Brick shouted charging out the front door with a hastily dressed Lighting hot on his tail. Noah rolled over in his bed and covered his face with a pillow.
As the two athletic boys ran down the stairs they tripped over one of Eva's weights and tumbled down. Grabbing his head, Brick looked up from the bottom of the stairs to see Eva's shoes directly in front of his face. "Can you leave your weights out of easily accessible places?" the cadet asked meekly.
"You guys survived worse, didn't you?" Eva asked. "But I'll oblige. We can't be strong all the time."
She picked up her weights with one finger each and stomped up the stairs. The two boys looked at each other and gulped.
Confessional, Lightning
What is it with muscle lady? Doesn't she know to pick up and rerack her weights?
Confessional, Brick
...I don't think it'd be wise to let her into the alliance in all honesty. Noah, Leshawna and I are doing just fine.
While most of the Horses slumbered, Mike's night of sleep was cut short when he rolled off of his bed. He grabbed his bedsheet and stood up, stretching with a relieved sigh on his face as he breathed healthily. Sensing his friend waking up, Duncan shot up in bed and looked to see Mike doing a series of splits. "Careful Mike, you don't want to wind up cutting your jewels."
"I don't know why but I'm just in the mood to stretch, it just feels liberating," Mike said as he stood up. "It's gonna be a better day no matter what."
"Hey careful with that," Duncan advised. "What if you jinx us?"
"Jinxes are a scientific impossibility, you realize that right?" Cameron said, sitting up in his bed.
"But not a natural impossibility," the boys heard Dawn say. "And since we are going out in nature today, it is advisable to remain on Mother Nature's good side."
The three boys looked at each other and saw Dawn looking out the window. "What are you doing here?" Mike asked.
"I came to offer counseling for two recovered souls but I thought I'd try echoing my voice around. I suppose being in the same room as the targets diminishes the effects."
On the playa, Sugar woke up with a fright. "WHO SAID SOMETHING ABOUT MOTHER NATURE?!" she shouted, before falling back asleep.
"We just woke up Dawn, is it okay if we talk about whatever it is we need to later?" Duncan asked.
"Sure," Dawn said, waving goodbye as the three blinked. When they opened their eyes, the pixie girl was nowhere in sight and in her place was a bird.
Confessional, Cameron
I can't explain Dawn's disappearance but I can explain the appearance of the bird. The fact that we all blinked was extraordinary however. She's barely taller than I am so I suppose that she just ducked under the window sill.
As Dawn walked away from the general direction of the Horse's cabin, she turned into the forest and saw DJ petting a rabbit. "You are really good with animals," Dawn said in a faint but still loud enough to be heard. The brickhouse and the rabbit both turned around with warm smiles on their faces. "You have a real kindred bond with animals, curse or no curse. Rabbits especially seem to form a tight bond with you."
"My momma always wanted me to be nice to those smaller than I, especially these little guys," DJ said. The rabbit turned around with a dopey smile on its face and threw up over Dawn and DJ. "...I swear he wasn't this sick this morning."
"He's just saying that he doesn't like to be called little. And then he said something about…" The pixie girl leaned in closely and DJ's eyes opened widely.
Confessional, DJ
...I know rabbits breed a lot but I didn't NEED to know what they think about before they have sex!
"Noted," DJ stammered. The rabbit hopped from the brickhouse and joined what looked to be his mate right next to a small tree. "I'm still on your side. And I think that it's Jo who we want to get rid of right?"
"Correct," Dawn said ominously. "We can hold peace but not for long. I can also sense that she's gunning for any one of us. If the four of us stay strong we will make it further. "Also breakfast is ready so we might as well head off to the mess hall. It's a surprisingly hearty meal today. It's going to be a long set of sayings if you ask me."
"Right," DJ said as he wiped off the vomit.
Just as they passed their cabins Chris made his morning announcements over the loudspeaker, much to the chagrin of the rest of the campers. Sadie and Katie woke up right across from each other and tied each of their hairs before skipping out. Gwen rolled out of bed, grumbling, as Bridgette caught her and stabilized her. "It's a bit early in the morning to be grumbling isn't it?"
"Talk to me when you haven't had coffee for a couple of days," Gwen grumbled.
"Breakfast smells good, maybe we'll actually have some coffee for you!"
Confessional, Gwen
I hope Bridgette isn't catching the peppy… then we have to deal with Sadie, Katie, and Braidie! EEE! …I'm not gonna force you to listen to Gwady any time soon.
"Black coffee please," Gwen mumbled. Bridgette smiled and walked out with Gwen to the mess hall, graciously avoiding Katie and Sadie as they continued to blabber on. The other cabins were soon empty and it was apparent that the mess hall was going to be bustling with life.
Jo and Jasmine both walked into the mess hall without much of a scuffle, the taller Australian deciding not to make a fuss as the shorter athlete intentionally bumped into her. Jasmine looked at B as he shrugged. It was clear who would go should they lose, but they weren't going to let that happen.
"You know Zoey I think we got off on the wrong foot," Courtney said. "You're...you're nice."
"Thanks," Zoey said perkily. "I do try to be like that every day if nothing else. For what it's worth you are smart and cooler than Duncan made you out."
"What did he say about me?" Courtney asked abruptly, a twitchy eye exposing some blood.
"Nothing too serious,: Zoey said with her hands up defensively. "Nothing bad, he just said maybe you were too smart for him and that's why he couldn't keep up?"
"Intelligence is prided in my home community. I can see why he'd clearly be intimidated by that."
"I'm not sure if I'd be proud of that," Zoey said absentmindedly. "But insecurities are insecurities. And we all have them."
Confessional, Courtney
I do NOT want to consider Zoey a rival at all, for all I know Duncan is still trying to get with Mike, but-
(Dawn Enters) This isn't some alternate universe with a bisexual Duncan you know?
(Courtney pushes her out) Who asked you?!
Confessional, Dawn/Zoey
Definitely Insecure.
As breakfast wrapped up without more hitches, Katie and Sadie looked at each other as they passed around a paper. On it were the names of all the guys with different arrows going. "The certain thing is that Max is in last, like he's gross, he's just an ugly little troll!" Sadie said.
"Personally I think he's more of a gnome," Ella said, sitting next to the two. "I'm curious as to why Ezekiel and Beardo are both pretty low."
"Let's be real Ella," Katie started. "Neither of them are quite chiseled body worthy, and they aren't like any of the traditionally hot. Like Justin."
"But has he not found his princess of the toxic air?"
"Poor hot Justin!" Katie and Sadie said.
"Whenever he kisses her he's going to smell the smell of her hairspray. That's so tragic!"
Confessional, Ella
Maybe it's best that Sadie and Katie are gone from my team. They seem to be much more judgemental against guys they deem the most handsome when they don't have a close bond with them. Thinking about that really does put a damper on my mood but I can't let that get to me! I just know today is going to be fun!
The campers all spilled out of the mess hall with a general upbeat attitude, but a couple of them put up their guards when they saw they were being led into the forest again. "Okay even I don't want to use paintball guns this much," Brick complained aloud.
"I don't think we're going to do it again," Zeke said innocently.
"It's Chris," Sky said bluntly. "We don't know how much of the budget he spent on facials for himself." As she looked to the others on her team for affirmation she could only see Dave smiling at her while the other members continued to move forward. She winced as she saw Dave pushed into the mud by Duncan "accidentally" but continued onward
Confessional, Duncan
The numbers don't add up. I know they technically do but I leave the hardcore nerd stuff to people like the bubble boy. And this alliance is getting too big for its prison bed.
The campers finally arrived at a familiar clearing, an all too familiar set up was in place as Chris stepped out. "Okay before we start, no this is not a paintball challenge," Chris said. The campers let out a sigh of relief when Chris threw a tarp off of what looked to be trashy camping supplies. "It's camping!"
With a collective shrug all the campers looked at Chris as he continued to explain the challenge. "This is an expanded throwback to a challenge from the first season, you guys have to first find a map on the trees. There will be five maps on one tree, and if you aren't exhausted after that then you're going to have to spend time racing for food. At nine o'clock you have to set up your tent at your campsite, if you don't then you'll just have to set up your camp in an unideal place."
"Will we have the same campsites?" Sky asked. She caught the wad of five dollars and shrugged.
"Nope," Chris said. "TI's a total throwback to season one, there's even rain predicted for tonight so you gotta be sure that you get some good supplies."
"And are these supplies going to be on the map?" DJ asked, gulping nervously. He too caught a small wad of bills and tucked it into his pocket.
"Yep! Which is why it is critical you find the map as soon as possible! Any more questions?" The campers looked at each other, much more enthused than when they started the other challenges. "THEN GO!"
As the campers dispersed in the woods, Chris looked to a plant in the distance. "You know what to do." The inhuman sounds of cracking were heard as the plant slinked off in the distance.
"Wait," DJ asked, skidding to a halt. "Does any of us actually have any idea where the maps are?"
His team halted just ahead of him, B nearly tripping over as he put his finger to his chin, before he looked to Jasmine, who looked to Jo, who looked to Dawn. "Leave it to me I guess," Dawn said, shrugging quietly.
Duncan had stopped to a screeching halt and looked as Dawn disappeared into the woods. He pulled aside Dave and Cameron by the scruffs on their neck and leaned in hastily. "Tell me nerdlings, is it a viable strategy to follow some kind of elf into the forest?"
Dave looked at Duncan much like one would regard a barely spoiled piece of bread, but Cameron, putting two and two together, nodded. "Hey guys," he called to the other members of his team. "Duncan has a plan."
"Ain't that a shocker," Courtney said to herself. "Better than nothing." The Horses dashed in the same direction as the doves, Duncan dropping Dave more fiercely than Cameron as they hopped over a tree root.
As Sadie slunk to the back of her team, Ryan slowed his pace down and started jogging alongside her. "Hey, you okay?" Ryan asked.
Sadie looked at the boy before smiling and trying to run again. "I'm not the runner between Katie and I," she said tiredly. "How much further?"
"Your guess is as good as mine." As he looked forward he saw that the rest of his team was as good as a mile ahead of them. "Well I know it's not your thing but let's see if you can give at least a mile out of you."
Sadie only managed to take a step forward before she fell flat on her face. "...I'm not KATIE!" she screamed inelegantly.
Ryan looked at the nearest camera and put his head down dejectedly, before straining as he hauled Sadie onto his back.
Confessional, Sadie
(giggling) don't tell Ryan but I got to feel his muscles as he ran…. KATIE IS GOING TO BE SO JEALOUS! I don't know why but she gets much better luck with hot guys.
Alejandro and Heather seemed to have a good path set for their rather weaker teammates but it seemed like Owen was not going to catch up at all. As the two of them stopped and looked behind, they sneered. "Why do we keep him again?" Heather asked as Justin sidled up next to them.
"I think you can put two and two together yourself," Alejandro said as he pointed to Owen. "Remind me again, how did you lose to him? Es una pregunta genial, mi amor."
"She had to make out with Owen's belly button," Justin said as Zeke struggled to catch his breath. Sammy stretched out a cramp in her leg as they decided to wait for Owen. "...so I think it's obvious?"
Confessional, Sammy
As gorgeous as Justin is, we can do with fifty percent less pretty boy on our team. Owen may be out of shape, and fat, and kind of gross, but at least he didn't push me out of a bus.
"I DON'T KNOW WHAT I'VE BEEN TOLD!" Brick shouted from the front of his relatively tight team. "BUT CHIRS NOT TELLING US WHERE THIS IS AIN'T GOLD!"
"What kind of rhyme is this?" Noah grumbled. As the camera zoomed away from his face, it was clear that Eva was dragging both him and Leshawna.
Confessional, Leshawna
What? This booty ain't made for running!
Racing deeper and deeper in the woods, the Doves came upon a tree with five nails and five envelopes attached to those nails. "Oh you poor thing," Dawn said, running forward and literally hugging the tree.
"Has she done that in your season?" DJ asked. As usual, B replied with a nonverbal shrug and jogged up to the tree. The envelopes were actually quite high on the tree and it looked as though it was going to need some effort.
Just before B could go run out and grab supplies, Jasmine stopped him. "It ain't that high mate, I've got this." She jumped up and grabbed the lowest hanging branch, still some eight feet off of the ground, and hoisted herself up to the envelopes.
While she worked on gently removing them from the tree at Dawn's behest, the Horses made a frantic sprint to the tree, bumping into Jo, B, and DJ as they ran forward carelessly. "How'd you guys get here so quickly?!" Jo asked, bewildered.
"We followed Dawn," Cameron said as both Sky and Svetlana jumped up towards the branches.
Dave and Courtney turned to Cameron with bewildered faces as Jo seemed riled up and argumentative. "Well," Jo said, suddenly diffusing. "It's clear that you're following the best team."
"If we're following the best team then why do you guys have so few members?" Duncan retorted.
"Here we go," Zoey and Courtney both said. Courtney glared at Zoey as she looked up in concern at Mike.
Pushing herself off of the tree, Dawn looked to the others. "I get there's an aura of animosity but there's an even bigger sense of danger!" she said worriedly.
As DJ and Zoey winced as Duncan and Jo seemed to be close to trading blows, a horrid shout came from the other side of the clearing. Dawn seemed to disappear as the others waited hesitantly for what was soon to come. As the ground rumbled, Sky fell out of three and was swatted away by rot. Dave chased after her but it was all for naught.
Larry, a monstrous venus fly trap that answered to Chris' beck and call, roared into sight and the group seemed to panic and flee. Jasmine and Mike fell out of the tree and were thrown out of sight as Larry roared up the tree, where a quick camera shot soon showed that the remaining members of the teams were huddled up on the same branch.
"...GREAT!" Jo said as the venus fly trap roared. "NOW WHAT?!"
Thinking quickly, B rolled off of the tree and made a funky dance, turning Larry to him. He dug a hole out of a shovel he made from his trench coat. He threw dirt into Larry's mouth and the fly trap tied him up, running away as it started to hack a cough.
Confessional, Larry
The venus fly trap can't fit in the confessional, but its root was seen as it started coughing, loudly. Offscreen, Chris was comforting the poor plant.
"...well," Courtney said, breaking the silence.
Zoey and Jo pulled maps out of their envelopes. The two exchanged rather placid glares towards each other while the others slowly climbed down from the tree. "We don't need to be hostile, knowing that there are things like this in the forest, right?" Zoey said as peacefully as she could.
"I agree," DJ said, speaking up quickly. "If we stick together then we won't lose any one of us, right?"
Jo looked at Duncan, and rolled her eyes. "Just shut up Dud-can," she said.
"Right back atcha, Mojo Jojo," Duncan snarled.
"I hope Mike, B, Dawn, Dave, Sky, and Jasmine are going to do well," Zoey said aloud.
"Well," Jo said, clapping her hands together. "We're burning daylight so we better go off."
Elsewhere, Ryan handed Sadie off to Geoff, who carried the girl without complaints. "Hey does anyone else feel something biting at them?" Geoff asked. At that moment a sharp gale blew through the glade. As Sadie rolled to the ground the team took a moment to regroup, Katie tending to Sadie as Gwen looked around for something out of the ordinary. Seeing a rather rustled tree to her right, she pointed in that direction and ran towards it, heaving breathlessly as she tried her best to keep moving forward.
"So why here?" Ryan asked. Gwen looked around, put her hand on the tree, and felt part of it slither away. Pulling her hand back, she ran into Ryan as she looked up. Larry, still holding B, roared at the Giraffes and the team all screamed.
"Wait if Larry is here," Bridgette said, tripping over one of Larry's roots. Looking up, she saw that there were several folders on the tree. "GUYS UP THERE!"
Gwen looked up to see where Bridgette was pointing and she grabbed the person closest to her, Katie, and started running towards the tree. Bending on her back, she created enough of a stool for Katie to step up and reach their team's folder. "THERE'S ENOUGH FOR ALL OF US!"
"TAKE THEM!" Ryan shouted, trying to pull Trent out of the way of a rampaging Larry.
Katie dropped from the tree with the maps in hand, handed most of them to Gwen, and hid behind a tree as Larry slowly calmed down, releasing B.
Confessional, Katie
Whew! I did that! Now the team won't see me as some thirsty barnacle! I hope I impressed the hot guys back home! They're going to freak.
The Giraffes crowded around Katie as she ran off to the destination on the map, Sadie far behind the pack and only being propped up by Trent this time.
The Birds continued to march and bumped into the Rabbits. "Hey, who said you could follow us?" Lightning asked indignantly.
"Oh Lighting," Alejandro said quietly. "It was but a mere coincidence."
"I don't speak spanish and you know it, buckaroo," Lightning said angrily.
Before the football jock could escalate the situation, Eva and Leshawna stepped between the two and diffused the situation. "Come on Lightning, that's not the goal right now!" Leshawna said frustratedly. "Just keep your eye on the prize."
"Well," Alejandro said, clearing his throat. "It seems as though both of our teams are quite lost. I suppose teaming up would do no harm, especially muy pronto en este concurso."
The Birds looked at each other with shrugs, and Eva swept Alejandro up and began running with his directions.
Confessional, Eva
...What? I'm not allowed to gush over hot guys? I'm not a girly girl but I'm still a girl!
Sky and Jasmine sat up, some hundreds of feet away from their teammates, and Mike dangled from a tree with his shirt rolling down. "Ay, yo, hot stuff," Vito called out. "Don't get me wrong you all are pretty but I'd rather see you with my feet below my head, no?"
Both of them sighed as Jasmine reached up and took Mike down, gently. "Wow thanks," Mike said. "Where even are we?" he asked.
Sky shrugged. "I'll go look around, I got a piece of the map somehow. That stupid venus fly trap was way too powerful. How did you survive that Mike?"
"Beats me," he said with a shrug. "I don't think I ever encountered that thing, and Zoey's usually the one who knows how to deal with the mutants."
"Well we better stick close so we don't get too bogged down," Jasmine said, instinctively trying to fix her hat. She looked up to see that it was stuck in the tree. As she sighed, she reached up and put it on her head.
"I don't remember what happened," Mike said sheepishly. "Where is our team?"
"Umm," Sky started. "I thought you knew but...I guess that we're all separated after the Larry attack. I think we just have to get to them."
"Right," Mike said with a nervous chuckle. "Where's the map?"
"I've got one," Jasmine said. "Stick together and we'll be day quicker than an emu runs."
Mike stared at Jasmine for a hot minute. "Don't I know you from… somewhere else?" he asked.
"Not likely, I've lived in Australia for a good chunk of my life." Mike dropped the conversation for a moment as the three continued to hunt for their team. As they made their way through the forest, Sky diverged from the group upon hearing the familiar whimpering.
"Hey Dave," Sky said. "Join us."
"Us?" Dave asked.
"Jasmine and Mike are with us," she said simply. "Though I doubt they notice that I'm gone." As the two of them looked over, they could see Jasmine and Mike intensely in conversation, laughing as though they were old friends.
"When did Jasmine join our team?"
"She didn't," Sky said. "We're just friends because of circumstance."
"Right."
Confessional, Dave
Now that Anne Maria is gone we don't really need to stay with Mike and Zoey and Duncan and Cameron. It might be better for me and Sky in the end. I wonder if we can spin Mike and Jasmine fraternizing… (sniffs air) It smells like a mutated plant in here. What happened?
On the other side of the forest, Brick scoped out the territory that Larry was patrolling, signalling to Leshawna and Noah to move forward ever so slightly to a conveniently placed rock. Once Leshawna sidled in tightly, he pointed to Alejandro to command his team to move forward. The Spaniard pointed to Beardo on his team to make a diverting noise. As Beardo made his noise, Sammy threw a rock in the same general direction of the noise.
The fly trap ran away and Lightning, Justin, and Eva ran to their maps. Yanking it off of the tree, Justin elbowed Lightning and ran towards his team. "Let's go!" he shouted. The rest of his team followed as he sprinted through the underbrush.
"Sha-dang," Lightning said. "Models hurt more than they should."
"Quit your yapping," Eva said. "We've got our maps so let's go."
Leshawna and Noah stood up from their rock, the former holding what looked to be Mr. Coconut in her palms. "Well that's what we get for trying to work with twice the eel," Noah said as he instinctively grabbed Mr. Coconut.
"The point is we got our maps, so let's skedaddle," Scott said, making his voice heard for the first time in a while. As his team looked at him blankly, he shrugged. "Just because I'm a rat doesn't mean I don't want to win this challenge."
Confessional, Mr. Coconut
The coconut stares at the camera before falling into the toilet.
Thanks to Gwen and Katie's quick deciphering skills, the Giraffes pulled ahead of the pack and made it to the center of the supply stations. "Go for the big one!" Sadie shouted as she finally caught up.
The big one she referred to was a giant tent with an equally large blanket, two sets of fishing gear, a basket, and even three sleeping bags. "Nice to know that if we get attacked by bears, or Izzy for that matter, then we'd be cozy," Trent commented as he loaded the three sleeping bags into his arms.
As they moved through the rest of the pile, it was clear that there were more amenities lying in wait, including several hats and a plethora of umbrellas. "We don't need this umbrella, do we?" Cody asked. Just then, a gust of wind blew through the area, opened the umbrella Cody was holding, and the lightweight was carried through the forest.
"Crap!" Sadie said, chasing after Cody before tripping over a waterproof tarp. She and Katie helped each other to their feet and chased after Cody.
Confessional, Sadie and Katie
Sadie: That was funny but we don't want him to get mauled by a bear again!
Katie: Oh em gee no! What would Sierra say?
Sadie: She'd probably kill us.
Katie: … point made… I hope there's a boy out there that thinks we're worth dying for!
Geoff, Bridgette, and Gwen looked as Ryan and Trent strained to take more of the supplies. "This is all we can take," Gwen said, taking a pillow from Ryan. "Let's just get going."
"Alright," Trent said agreeably. "Wait, was there anything in there that we could use to start a fire?"
"I think it's in the pillow," Ryan said.
Confessional, Ryan
...I hate to do this but if we wind up without fire then we can just blame Gwen. She hasn't been the biggest fan of me lately, and that stirs dissent and that means I could go home...I know for a fact there isn't fire in the pillow.
"Really?" Gwen said skeptically.
Confessional, Ryan
Fuck
Bridgette rummaged around in the pillow and came up empty handed. She turned to the others and shrugged. As she opened her palms a match fell out. "...is this it?" Bridgette asked.
"Huh," Ryan said. "I could have sworn I put more in there." Trent and Gwen looked at the rookie awkwardly and pressed on.
Confessional, Trent
...That seemed kind of out of character for him, didn't it? Ah well, we have fire, and we aren't gonna lose. I hope Cody didn't get eaten by Ella's geese or whatever.
"Well the map says to go left at this rock," Zeke said aloud. "Is that what your map says Beardo?"
The boombox let out an inquisitive sound and flipped his map around. The two looked at each other and glanced towards Justin, who was also flipping around his map. "This one seems fine to me," Justin said loudly. "Maybe you're just not reading it well enough," Justin said loudly.
Alejandro grabbed both Justin and Zeke's map and compared the two. "We've been going around in circles, Justin lead us si te puedes," Alejandro remarked.
Confessional, Justin
Hmph, about time that the eel is gonna respect me! I hope Anne Maria likes that I'm taking charge
"See anything?" a voice asked as Jo looked over a bush.
"Just the camping supplies," Jo said gruffly. She pulled the voice, Cameron, up by his hoodie and the two looked over. The two of them signalled to their teammates and they all spread out into the field where the camping material was. "Don't even think about getting that barbecue! It's mine!"
"Yeah and who is gonna carry that?" Zoey asked, getting annoyed with Jo's ego. "Hey Duncan, do you see anything of the others?"
"Nothing up here," Duncan said from his perch on the tree. "Yo Court! Do you see anything?"
"Don't call me Court!" Courtney said as she slid down from the tree. "Let's just get the stuff and go. There's only so much forest."
"...hmm," Zoey said thoughtfully.
Confessional, Zoey
I thought she'd be more concerned about that… Dave, Sky, Mike… what does she have against Mike?
"Okay we can find them later," Duncan said agreeably. "Let's see what we can do with these supplies! I know how to make a good deal of barbecue so we're getting the grill."
"I can take you all on at once! You'll have to pry it from my cold, dead hands!" Jo shouted
"That can be arranged!" Duncan shouted back. Their conversation was cut short as they heard footsteps rapidly approaching. The silent genius rounded a corner and looked at the two teams as they resolved their argument. Clinging to his back was Dave as he fell to the ground unceremoniously.
"Oh good," Jo said. "Let's get going Bob."
The silent genius looked at her quietly and she shrugged. "Would you rather I call you Beverly?"
The two ran off, leaving the Horses to delegate the piles. "I know Cameron can't take much, and neither can you neatfreak," Duncan snarled.
"Hey I 'm competent!" Dave started. "I can pull my weight! I'll take the tent!"
"There's more important things to argue about!" Courtney shouted. "Let's just go, we have enough, and something tells me Mike, Jasmine and Sky have their heads on straight."
She grabbed a metal grill and stormed off, dragging the grill in the dirt as Cameron tried his best to jog up to her, toilet paper in hand. "Well?" Zoey asked the boys.
"Let's go then," Duncan said dismissively.
Just as the last of the Horses left, Alejandro and Justin steered the Rabbits into the clearing. "THEY PICKED IT CLEAN!" Justin shouted.
Just as his words left his mouth a tumbleweed flew into Beardo's hair, disappearing without a trace. "Let's just take it all, then," Sammy recommended. "And they might have gotten lost in the wind, huh?"
"Fat chance we can get any of this," Heather grumbled.
Confessional, Sammy
...Don't blame me for being optimistic, did Alejandro not fuck her in the right way today?
Ignoring her snipe, Sammy and Ella moved through the piles and picked up three of the remaining piles. As Ella picked at some dried fruits several animals showed up. "Do you want to help?" she asked them ever so sweetly. The animals looked at each other and shrugged. What could they lose? Sammy and Ella put a sleeping bag on the deer and gave a small bag of food for two birds to carry.
"Well I guess they'll help, but we need more food," Zeke said thoughtfully, noting Owen eying the deer hungrily. "There's some twine over there, we can make some fishing gear."
The Rabbits picked the area clean before leaving, three animals in tow.
The five teams were now making their way to their campsites. However the Doves who were scattered thin because of Larry the plant. Jo and B using their map were walking through the forest looking for their clearing.
"So, Beverly what's new with you?" Jo asked, receiving a shrug from the silent genius.
"You seriously just refuse to speak don't you. But I never thanked you for this but thanks for helping me in that talent show thing. I probably would have gotten us sent to the ceremony if it weren't for you," Jo spoke looking straight ahead but a slight smile traced her face.
B nodded in response and gave her a smile.
"Well Jo I didn't expect to hear those words out of your mouth,"
"Ah what the fuck Dawn, stop creeping up on people like that. And you don't say a word. GOT IT" Jo stated getting in Dawn's face. The pixie girl blinked quietly and shrugged. "Perfect, now let's-"
DJ, just jogging up to the team after getting lost for a hot minute, joined B and Dawn watching the jockette run into spider web after spider web, punctuated profusely by profanity. The brickhouse stifled a laugh.
"Got something to say softy!" Jo yelled, turning to face DJ, making him jump slightly.
"Nothing Jo, nothing,"
"And you'll continue to say nothing until I tell you to say something," Jo stated, pointing her finger at DJ's chest.
"What are you Chef?" DJ chuckled remembering Chef's line from season one.
"No I'm nothing like that oaf."
"Jo calm down, we need to get to the campsite," Dawn reasoned.
"Ugh." Jo threw her hands up in defeat.
Confessional, Dawn
Don't blame me. She told me not to say anything. And her aura is blissfully unaware that we'll vote her out if we lose. Vengeance is mother nature's attack dog and she will get bitten.
"And this looks like the spot," Gwen read, suddenly coming to a stop. Her other members looked around at the little glade they were in. Katie and Sadie finally pulled Cody down and the technogeek fell into a little creek they were in, rising up spitting out snails. "...escargot, perfect."
"Oh em gee," Sadie squirmed. "NO! Why don't Katie and I just go look for blueberries? They're like, the best!"
"Only if one of us goes with you," Ryan said.
"Like, we only like, got lost once," Katie said. "Just because of that, we're taking you!" Katie and Sadie grabbed Ryan by the arms as the football jock looked on helplessly.
"Cody, how about you me and Trent pitch up our three tents?" Geoff asked.
The three boys looked at each other for an uncomfortably long time before Bridgette snapped the smallest tent up. "Now you only have to pitch two tents."
Confessional, Geoff
That's what I like about Bridgette, she pitches tents like a guy. It's really helpful.
Gwen stepped out of the glade and hunted for firewood, driagging Bridgette behind her. "Okay," Gwen said, kneeling over some firewood. "Is it cool if we talk soon?" the goth asked.
Bridgette turned around and kneeled over as well, careful not to tear her shorts on the ruffage on the ground. "Sure, about what?"
"About...about your distraction…"
"Oh," Bridgette said, deflated. "Later tonight?"
"Yeah," Gwen said in a hushed tone. "That works."
"Let's just get this wood then."
"Sure," Gwen replied.
Confessional, Gwen
Ryan is an oddball. He has Bridgette wrapped around his finger yet he does nothing. Perhaps he's playing the long game. With this large of a cast it wouldn't surprise me.
The Rabbits on the other hand weren't that smooth sailing after going around in circles for the past hour they realized finally that they had two different maps.
"Mi amigos we've been going around in circles. We need to figure out which map is correct," Alejandro addressed his team.
"I think my map is most definitely correct," Justin said holding his map up.
"But do we know that for sure, perhaps Beardo's map is correct," Sammy reasoned pointing to the beatboxer's map.
"Hmm, is anyone here good at reading maps?" Ella asked the group.
In response Alejandro raised his hand and took the maps from Beardo and Justin, albeit] the latter was somewhat reluctant to do so.
"Hmm it appears, we are here on the map," Pointing to one location on Beardo's map. "However on Justin's we are here," Pointing to another spot on Justin's map. "We are closer to the campsite, so I say we follow his map and if it's wrong we follow Justin's" Alejandro decided, earning nods of agreement from his fellow campers.
"Alright then let us get moving then. We should get to the site before sun down," Alejandro stated waving his teammates along to follow him.
Confessional, Justin
I don't trust that slimy eel. I bet he knows that my map is right and is going to do something to make sure I take the blame for our map problems.
Confessional, Alejandro
I could very easily make Justin take the fall for our problems today by following his map, but I value sleep and comfort over a move that will probably get nowhere.
While the Doves had reunited and the Rabbits were lost, Mike, Dave, and Sky were busy searching for their team wandering aimlessly through the woods.
"You think they just left us behind? Wouldn't be surprised with how careless Duncan and Courtney can be with their teammates," Dave stated.
"I doubt that, Zoey wouldn't just leave us behind," Mike stated.
"And besides Courtney and Duncan want to win and they know that they need all of us to return in order to make that happen," Sky reasoned, placing her hand on Dave's shoulder.
"Yeah I guess you're right. They're probably looking for us right now!" Dave said optimistically.
"Hey there's our campsite," Courtney said pointing to the clearing.
"Hey sense, we know where our campsite is maybe we should go looking for our lost teammates?" Zoey asked.
"They'll find their way here eventually," Duncan said brushing the comment aside.
"And what if they don't. We'll lose the challenge" Zoey pointed out.
"Alright you have a point. You and four eyes can go look for them, Courtney and I will stay back and keep guard on camp," Duncan decided.
"Alright, we'll be back before you know it," Zoey said, smiling to her compatriots.
"Seriously Duncan, do you want us to lose. Now we only have two people for sure making it back to camp," Courtney complained.
"Oh can it princess, they would have left anyway," Duncan said, taking a seat on a tree stump.
"Yeah I guess you're right."
Silence was left in the air, neither saying a word. Both turned to one another with curled lips, clearly something besides silence was in the air. "You remember when-" both started.
"Sorry," they said awkwardly. "You go ahead, no you go ahead."
Once again, silence returned. The two of them looked at each other and sighed. Duncan held his hand out for Courtney to begin. "The contract was stupid," Courtney said abruptly. "That's my fault. I can't change anything of you. Now I know that."
"Wow Princess, now I don't feel bad admitting that me kissing Gwen was such a dumb move."
"They both were," both readily agreed.
Looking off in the distance, Duncan shifted on his tree stump and made a place for Courtney to sit next with him. Graciously and surprisingly, she took it. "Do you ever just want to go back? To Island?"
Duncan tensed abruptly before letting out a sigh. "I tell you Princess, I do."
"It seemed so much more fun back then. Before all the idols and the contracts and the faulty confessionals. And here we are now, the exact same campsite during that one challenge."
"You have that long of a memory?"
"Yeah, I guess I do Ogre." The two sat on the stump for a hot minute, neither one moving. The tranquility of the scene was finally interrupted when they heard Dave screaming about bats and broomsticks and witches and something about mastication. "Ah great," Courtney said, snippiness returning to her voice.
"I got him," Duncan grumbled as he walked off screen
Oh hey Dunca—Hey wait WHAT ARE YOU DO—OW! Owww! O-OWW! OOWWWWWWWW!
Confessional, Dave
(His underwear is over his head) Why does Duncan hate me all of a sudden? If he saw what I saw he'd be screaming too! (underwear snaps and Dave screams)
Meanwhile the Birds were moving at a more constant pace than their rivals. Noah and Brick being relatively good map readers worked together to decipher the map leading to a relatively easy trip to their campsite.
"What did I tell you Noah, teamwork makes the dream work," Brick said, smiling down on his egg headed friend.
"Yeah yeah whatever," Noah said rolling his eyes.
"Alright team let's get this campsite set up. Scott, Leshawna, and I will set up the tents. Noah you get some kindling for the fire and Lighting and Eva you get food." As Brick marched off, he failed to notice the muscle-woman's rather displeased face.
Confessional, Eva
I'm not normally the one to be bossed around but if I raise my voice now then I'll be going for sure. I'd rather see Lightning or especially Scott get away.
"You got it army man, Sha-Lightning won't disappoint," Lightning shouted, sprinting off into the forest.
"Ugh, Lightning damn it slow down before I clobber you," Eva yelled out in anger chasing down the jock.
"Great. Now I have to deal with idiot jock and anger management. Thanks Brick," Noah stated dryly, rolling his eyes at Brick, before making his way into the forest.
"No problem buddy," Brick smiled, either ignorant to Noah's sarcasm or just didn't care. "Alright let's go guys, we have tents to set up," Brick said, grabbing Leshawna and Scott and bringing them over to the tents in question.
Montage Begin
The Rabbits had finally managed to reach their destination and had begun setting up. Despite Heather's complaints about working, Alejandro got her to at least get some twigs for a fire. Ella, Justin, and Beardo stayed back to set up the tents. Beardo and Ella managed to set up the first tent with relative ease, however Justin was struggling as he kept complaining about how the tent could ruin his skin complexion. Much to his teammates dismay.
However on the Giraffes things were a bit more smooth running. Katie and Sadie were sent on firewood duty. Bridgette, Gwen, and Geoff took care of the tents and unlike the Rabbits they got them set up with ease. Despite the obvious tension among the group they seemed to be working like a well oiled machine tonight.
Jasmine had finally reached the Doves camp after Dawn had managed to find her walking through the woods. Jo had gone searching for food, while B stayed back to set up the tents and DJ went to get firewood. All in all the Doves were actually doing well in a challenge and may not face elimination for once. However as with the Giraffes there was still some slight tension between Jasmine and Jo.
The Horses were doing okay. Duncan, Zoey, and Courntey had gone searching for food. Cameron and Dave were on fire wood detail and Mike and Sky were on the tents. Considering that these people were some of the best Total Drama players in history, the Horses are now a force to be reckoned with now that they all had one goal in mind. Winning.
And lastly the Birds, who following Brick's orders were working well. Lighting and Eva caught some fish and by the time they got back a fire was started and the tents were set up. It seemed as though most of the teams, key word most, were successful in their camping endeavors and should be able to pull out a victory today. But you never know, Total Drama is a crazy place.
Montage End
Many of the Doves had gone to bed at this point. However Jo and Jasmine were still awake working to put out the fire.
"So Jasmine, you were with did you get any dirt on him?" Jo asked bluntly.
"No, and secondly if I did why would I tell you," Jasmine said, turning her head to face the jockette.
"Aw come on we can use it against him like Scott did in our season," Jo reasoned.
"I will never sink to Scott's level let alone discuss a friend's secrets with the likes of you."
"Oh so you're fraternizing with the enemy now?"
"So, if you have a problem with it I can personally guarantee that you'll be returning to the playa tomorrow."
"Would you two shut up, some of us are trying to sleep and are tired of hearing your bickering," Dawn shouted which also earned a groan of agreement from DJ.
"Sorry mate, we were just heading to bed," Jasmine said, glaring at Jo.
Confessional, Jasmine
Jo is literally a female version of Scott. She just tries to find people's weaknesses just to use those weaknesses against them. She makes me sick.
Many of the campers had entered a restful dream state when midnight struck. However for the Horses that was not the case. Mike was moving around and talking in his sleep which was not unnoticed by the resident criminal.
"Mike you know you need me to win," A more sinister voice spoke.
"No I don't, I did just fine last time," Mike said this time.
"You were weak. I am better than all of us. I have all of our strengths and no weaknesses," The voice said clearly angry.
"You're too reckless, and could ruin everything I've done. My friendships. My relationship with Zoey. My chances of winning," Mike stated, more determined than usual.
"What the fuck is going on," Duncan wispered to himself confused at Mike's voice switching.
"Alright buckaroo your time is up, let Mike compete," Manitoba this time spoke.
"NO THIS IS MY TIME," The voice shouted, causing Duncan to sit up and look over to his alliance mate who appeared to be shaking. Duncan leaned over and put his hand over Mike's mouth forcing him to wake up.
Mike turned to Duncan with a sort of death glare saying what the fuck dude.
"You were yelling and shaking man, thought you were having some freakish nightmare or something. Thought it better you wake up rather than stay in it," Duncan whispered to Mike.
Mike gave a relieved sigh and said "Thanks man, I appreciate it."
"Hey, no problem man, but we need to get back to bed. We have to get up early tomorrow."
"Yeah."
Confessional, Duncan
I don't think what I saw is real. But he looked and sounded eerily similar to that kid I met in juvie. But I'm not sure. I may want to talk to Zoey about it at some point because right now Mike is scaring the shit out of me.
As most of the rabbits slept, Justin put a hand over Beardo's face. Alarmed, Beardo woke up, almost screaming before Justin shushed him. "Do I have your vote against Alejandro?" Frantically, the soundbox nodded, wanting to go back to sleep. "Good."
The model removed his hand and ran it under a stream of water nearby. Beardo looked as Justin walked up and did the same to Ezekiel.
Confessional, Beardo
Do you think all that time making out with Anne Maria kind of killed his brain cells? He could have just asked me and I would have said yes.
Justin crept up to Ezekiel, who sleep sneezed and sprayed acid over Justin's hand. The model stifled a screamed and ran into the stream, tumbling down river.
Confessional, Justin
That could have gone better.
The sun broke over the forest and the teams all slowly woke up. As B, Dawn, Jo, Jasmine, and DJ looked at their campground, DJ and B set about discarding them. "For fuck's sake!" Jo shouted. "We don't have time to do this!"
"Actually," Dawn said. "Chris said we have to clean up. Don't you remember?"
"Well it's a lot of phooey it is what it is," Jo grumbled. "I bet those two over there can't even clean up properly. Just chuck them into a trash bag! That's how I moved out of my parent's house!"
"We don't have any trash bags you chestnut!" Jasmine shouted frustratedly. Before Jo could retort, B threw five bags filled with varying amounts of trash within. "Let's go to Kookaburras!"
On the other side of the forest, Mike woke up with bags under his eyes, the stress of the night getting to him. He basked in the morning light for a brief moment when he realized the sun was out. "LET'S MOVE!" he shouted, slipping into a russian accent as he sprung out of the tent. Duncan, Dave, and Cameron woke up, rubbing their eyes.
"Looks like he's back to normal," Duncan said.
"Normal?" Cameron asked.
Duncan pulled Cameron aside as they put out the fire. "We'll talk later."
Confessional, Cameron
Duncan may have a link to Mike's past and that will help Mike with his DID so much! As a psychologist up and coming I know exactly how valuable testimony from acquaintances is.
Zoey, Sky, and Courtney woke up similarly and helped Svetlana take down the camp. Once they were all finished, Svetlana took a bow and gasped. "Why do I feel so tired?"
"Svetlana," his six teammates stated.
"Now let's run!" Courtney said, trampling through a small field of wildflowers.
Confessional, Mike
Was that a dream last night? What happened?
(He gasps and his hair falls over his head)
You'll be protected by the strongest of us all
(He gasps)
I still don't know what's going on.
The rabbits looked around as Ezekiel slowly got to cleaning up. "We need to clean now," Ezekiel said frantically.
"Oh we don't have much to do," Justin said. "Let's just get going. The sooner we clean the sooner we can get to camp and the sooner we can get those good rewards!"
"Sounds good to me," Sammy agreed readily. As the lot of them got to cleaning, they were made aware of a sudden roadblock.
"Que vamos a hacer con este gordo…" alejandro muttered as he kicked Owen's butt.
"Hey Al," Justin asked, oblivious to the villain's twitching. "Remember that thing in the cabin fever? Does that work when he's asleep."
"What thing?" Heather asked indignantly.
Alejandro snapped his fingers and the team all watched as Owen stood up, pulled his underwear over his head, slathered paint over his face, and started singing 'Take me out to the ballgame'. As his first verse ended he twirled around and tripped into the stream, bobbing up with a salmon in his mouth. "What?" he asked his team.
"Come on fatass we need to go!"heather said, throwing her shoe at him
Confessional, Owen
(Somehow still eating the salmon) I'd've thought that being with Al would have made her happier, not grumpier. I know waking up to that hot Spanish burrito would make me happy any time of the day.
The birds were marching through the forest, ducking under branches and skipping over massive pieces of poop. As they reached about 75% of the way there, Leshawna and Noah collapsed. "This honeycake can't make it any longer without becoming a piece of vega keto cake," Leshawna griped.
"Spaz," Scott said before he ran straight into a tree. "Yes Mister White. It was Dr Scarlett in the Mess Hall with the Fossil of a pteranodon!"
Brick, Lightning, and Eva looked behind them to see that three of their members were all taken out in some regard. "I guess we can take a break," Brick said.
"That is not an option!" Eva shouted. Hoisting Leshawna onto her shoulder, she threw Scott to Lightning and Noah to Brick. "Let's move!"
Confessional, Brick
...Id' be lying if I didn't think that was attractive, but I'd still be lying if I didn't think that was intimidating. But there's a reason we're keeping her longer than Scott and Lightning and that's why!
Confessional, Eva
What better way to throw my weight around than carrying the pieces of deadweight? After we get rid of Scott then I'd be able to convince them to get rid of Noah. Seriously, this game isn't a game of brains.
"THERE'S THE CAMP!" Gwen said as she felt a sudden surge of energy course through her legs. She made it over the finish line and threw her pack onto the ground, breathing heavily as she waited for her team to make it. To her shock, she found all five members of the Doves all waiting peacefully. "...well second place isn't bad…"
Instinctively she walked to the totem pole and knocked on it twice. She looked to the finish line and saw a huge tumble of campers all fall into the finish line. She could spot all members of her team and she breathed a sigh of relief. "Wow," Ryan said, breaking free from the pack. "Good job Gwen."
"Thanks."
Confessional, Gwen/Ryan
...I still don't trust him/her
The horses pulled themselves free from the pile as they all shed their packs. "Well, we aren't' last," Dave said optimistically.
"No thanks to you," Duncan snorted.
"Hey, we're safe," Mike said. "That's all that matters."
"Heh, yeah," Duncan said. "Now which losers are we waiting for?"
No sooner had he asked the question that Eva plowed into him. Leshawna fell onto Duncan and the punk let out a small groan of pain. "Consider that Karma for how you treated Harold," Leshawna said primly. Scott, Brick, Noah, and Lightning all made their way past the finish line.
"And it looks like the rabbits are going home!" Chris announced. "Doves, come with me to get your $200 tuck shoppe shopping spree. Giraffes, you get a new appliance set that will be shipped to your house. And Horses, you all win two new fluffy pillows! Birds, just be lucky you all aren't kicking one of you off of the island."
"Where are the Rabbits?" Brick asked. He caught the five dollars Chris threw to him as Chris looked on the monitors. "Five dollars isn't an answer."
"...chef they're not even 10% of the way there...can you go get them?" Chris asked tiredly.
"On it," the chef grumbled. "The rest of you, it's a free day today!"
Chef drove out into the forest to retrieve said Rabbits much to the dismay of Alejandro and Heather after they had been informed of their loss.
Confessional, Alejandro
It's unfortunate that we lost and it's clear mi amor Heather and I are on the chopping block tonight. However if I can earn two votes I can at least get a tie with most likely myself and Justin.
Alejandro's first target was Owen, from experience he knew any sort of food could sway Owen to his side. Sneaking into Chef's pantry in the back of the kitchen he searched for what Heather used in season one. He spent about a minute crawling around the pantry before laying his eyes on his desired prize. A giant uneated chocolate cake. Alejandro grabbed the cake from its shelf and quietly snuck out before Chef came back from who knows where.
Alejandro with the cake in both hands made his way to the boys cabin. He opened the door to find Owen and Justin talking to each other on their respective beds. As Alejandro creaked the door open the two boys turned their heads towards the noise that revealed Alejandro.
"Owen can I speak to you for a second," The eel asked.
"Sure," The fat boy responded, earning a worried look from the original pretty boy of season one.
The two boys stood across from each other on the Rabbits' porch with Alejandro holding the cake behind his back.
"Owen, I want to strike a deal with you mi amigo," Alejandro started. "If I give you this cake are you willing to vote for Justin in tonight's vote," Alejandro continued revealing the delectable chocolate cake.
"Sure Al, you've got my vote," Owen smiled, grabbing the cake away from Alejandro and heading back inside.
Confessional, Alejandro
Easy as cake. Now onto my next target, whether it be Beardo or Ezekiel I just need one of the two but both would be ideal. However I heard a rumor that Ezekiel and Cody stabbed Topher in the back so I don't know if those two are to be trusted.
As Alejandro searched for Ezekiel and Beardo, Sammy and Ella were meeting in the Mess Hall to decide who to vote off. The choices were obvious, Heather or Alejandro.
"Personally I think the choice is obvious, Heather or Alejandro who do we go with?" Sammy asked her partner.
"They are both evil however Alejandro is more likely to help our team whereas as much as I don't like to be mean, Heather at times is a liability," Ella explained.
"I'm inclined to agree, but Alejandro is a bigger threat. We all know what they both are but Alejandro still has a sphere of influence for some reason. I mean just look at Amy and even Owen."
"Hmm I agree, but if we eliminate Heather, Alejandro may turn into a mess."
"Or come after all of us," Sammy countered.
"I say we go Heather, at least Alejandro helps in challenges more often than not," Ella reasoned.
"I guess you're right, best to take one out now while we have the chance. Heck we may get two with one stone," Sammy agreed, signally the end of the meeting. The two got up and left for their cabin and prepared for the vote tonight.
Even though it was the Rabbits' elimination tonight it wasn't stopping Gwen from trying to sway votes to her side and away from Ryan. Gwen and Bridgette sat in the Giraffes' cabin while Sadie and Katie were presumably in the showers.
"Hey Bridgette I wanna talk to you about Ryan again," Gwen said, turning her body to face her friend.
Bridgette, who was lying in her bed, sat up to face her friend as well before speaking. "Gwen I know what you're going to say and I'm not falling for him. I learned my lesson from seasons past."
"No, it's just that I think he could be turning into Alejandro. He's got Sadie and Katie wrapped around his finger in just a day. Zeke and Beardo when they were here were glued to him, and Cody seems to trust him a little too much and I'm worried you're falling into the same trap."
"Let's be real here if anyone good looking was on the same team as Sadie and Katie they'd be wrapped around their finger just look at Justin. But aside from that, I'm not falling into a trap. I know what I'm doing," Bridgette reasoned.
"Look I've dealt with the likes of Heather and Alejandro for seasons on end, I know what I'm saying."
"So have I. I may not be as good of a player as you but, I've got just as much experience as you. Ryan seems genuine and I trust him as a teammate. We've haven't come last since we eliminated Topher, I think we're fine."
"I'm just saying Bridgette he isn't to be trusted. He wants to win just like the rest of him and he might do everything in his power to do that."
"Gwen drop it. I know you don't trust him but I do so just drop it."
"Fine then, but don't say I didn't warn you."
Confessional, Bridgette
I get Gwen is trying to protect me but I don't need her to protect me, I know what I'm doing I've learned from season's past.
Confessional, Gwen
Bridgette is going to get played in the end. I don't trust Ryan at all. We've seen this before with Alejandro, he's doing the same thing. It won't surprise me if she winds up stuck to a pole- or worse!
Meanwhile in the forest Alejandro was attempting to gain Ezekiel's and Beardo's vote. Zeke and Beardo were sitting by a rock practicing Ezekiel's raps as Alejandro walked over.
"Ezekiel, Beardo my friends. I was wondering if we could make a deal?" Alejandro questioned waving to the two boys.
"What sort of deal eh," Ezekiel responded.
"A deal to eliminate Justin," Alejandro stated, cutting to the chase.
"What would you offer in return for us voting off Justin?" Beardo replied.
"You'd gain protection from myself and Heather and we can guarantee for however long these teams last that you'll survive until it's just us four."
"Hmm, we didn't have any plans for the vote so I guess we'll vote Justin," Beardo replied, waving off Alejandro.
"I'll leave you guys be," Alejandro stated walking away from the pair.
"Should we do it eh?"
"I don't trust him, I say we vote him out,"
"But, do we want one of them after us or have them on our side eh?"
"I'd rather have the eel gone I don't trust him,"
"You have a point eh. But I think sending Justin home could be good to,"
"Well it's clear we aren't in any immediate danger so let's just see where the votes fall," Beardo decided.
Elimination Ceremony
"Rabbits, welcome back to the Elimination Ceremony. Last time you guys voted off Amy for your troubles, now who will you guys vote off after Sadie and Katie swapped with Ezekiel and Beardo. In a few minutes we'll find out. Keep in mind that if you don't receive a marshmallow you'll be eliminated and will take the Boat of Losers to the Playa de Losers. Now moving onto the vote," Chris explained, picking up the infamous plate of marshmallows.
"The following players are safe."
"Ella"
"Sammy"
"Owen"
"Beardo"
"Ezekiel"
Each of them got up and walked over to Chris and picked up their safety for the night. "All of you received no votes tonight however I can't say the same for the three of you. Each of you at one point or another has played the role of villain. Some were more successful than others. However one of you received more votes than the others. First safe is…"
"Heather"
"And finally the nineteenth person voted out of Total Drama Island Revived is… Justin." Chris stated shocking many sitting at the bonfire, even Chris.
"What, you voted me off instead of those two," Justin shouted pointing at the eel and ice queen.
"Bye bye pretty boy," Heather smiled slyly with a wave.
"Sorry Justin, you're still hot… I mean… ugh," Owen sputtered
"Whatever I guess, at least I get to be with Anne," Justin swooned walking to the dock of shame with Owen and Ezekiel waving solemnly behind him as he left with Alejandro and Heather smirking behind him. The evil power couple had arrived and they came to play.
Confessional, Heather
One more down. Thirty-two left to go, and with this immunity idol I'll be safe for a while. Alejandro and I are going to be sitting pretty for a while.
Confessional, Ezekiel
Maybe I should have voted Heather or Alejandro eh. But I guess I would rather have Justin gone than have one of them after me eh.
Confessional, Alejandro
Beardo troubles me, he isn't as easily persuaded as Ezekiel is. Maybe I underestimated how easily the boombox could make friends, and for that matter be rubbed off by them. Por lo menos he didn't wind up making fast friends with Staci… but those he did make friends with… let's say his friends are going to have to worry just as much as he is.
"Well then, Alejandro and Heather are back finally. We needed someone other than Scott playing the villain this season. Is Beardo in hot water or is Alejandro making an empty threat? Will I ever mix the teams up? Will the Giraffes lose sense now they have the most players on their team remaining? You will only find out on the next episode of Total Drama Island Revived.
Votes
Beardo: I'm voting off Alejandro, like Noah said in Season three, he's an eel dipped in grease.
Heather: Bye Justin, only my hot boyfriend will be staying today.
Alejandro: Justin it was fun while it lasted but it's time for you to go.
Justin: Alejandro needs to go, I'm the good looking one not him.
Ezekiel: I'd rather vote Heather or Alejandro eh. But I'd rather get one minor villain out rather than a major one and earn the ire of the other one eh.
Ella: Heather is too cruel to be on this show any longer.
Sammy: I vote Heather, do I even need to explain why.
Owen: Hmm, I guess I vote Justin because Alejandro gave me that cake
And that's the chapter. I hope you guys enjoyed it. Would love to see more theories on this story and as always leave reviews. And also Hopps and I are looking for an artist to do some art for this story. If you're interested please message me through discord. You can find me using the link to my server on my profile page.
Nobody245: Your analysis is good I won't say whether you're right or wrong however it was interesting to see where you went and that you ultimately picked Trent through your analysis. Only time will tell if you're right.
Bridgekiel: I wouldn't say no one cares about him you're forgetting about Owen.
Corn: You would be correct in saying that a lot of scheming is going on to sway both of the swappers today you saw Ezekiel get swayed. And you got the Rabbits right however it was Justin who bit the bullet. Hope you enjoyed it.
Gason Jace: I'm glad that you're enjoying the story and having a good laugh. Yes no more paintball challenges for a while and. Mal will be officially revealed in due time my friend just wait.
Guest: You'll just have to wait and see
Boo04bot: Thanks for the criticism, Ryan won't become a Gary Sue, and I'll preface this now he WON'T win. I know it's a spoiler but I know it's stupid to have an OC win. He'll go far as I think many can see but he will become an integral part in the story more so than he is now. And not because he's an OC but his part is to help save someone else. And it's not Bridgette.
