Total Tween Island

Chapter 6: The Sucky Outdoors

Last time on Total Tween Island: a talent contest brought out the worst in our campers. It was awesome! The Killer Bass struggled to find any talent on their team. Zim's destruction of the mess hall was made even worse when Phineas built Chef a new one! Edd caught his teammates Mandy and Gaz conspiring against the other team but hasn't told anyone yet. But it was Misery whose epic singing was ruined by the other team that gave Pacifica the chance to have her eliminated. Who will be the next one to walk off this crappy dock? Find out tonight in the most dramatic marshmallow ceremony ever on Total Tween Island!

(Theme song plays)

Its noon at Camp Wawanakwa and the eighteen campers are all together at the campfire pit either sitting or standing. Chris is standing in his usual spot addressing them. "Campers today's challenge will test your outdoor survival skills." He told them. "I'm not going to lie to you…some of you may not come back alive." The tweens gasped when they heard this.

"Just joking," he laughed. "All you have to do is spend one night in the woods. Everything you need is at your team's campsite in the forest. You just have to find it." Chris then pulled two maps and two compasses out of a bag and tossed one pair to Pacifica and one pair to Phineas. "Oh and watch out for bears. Lost a couple of interns in preproduction. First team back for breakfast wins invincibility." He then pulled out his horn and hit it to start the challenge. "Well…off you go."

The campers stood up and walked away from the campfire pit. "D-Did he say b-bears?" Baljeet stuttered.

"Yeah bears!" Mabel cheered. "I want to meet a bear! How cool would that be?"

Gaz scowled. "Yeah Mabel, you should go meet a bear. Then stick your head inside its mouth."

"Yeah!" Mabel instantly agreed. "No, wait…"

Edd walked alongside the others but kept glancing nervously at Mandy and Gaz.

*Confessional*

Edd: Oh dear I still haven't told anyone about what I heard. I know I should but I'm afraid they'll find out. And if I know one thing from being on this team it's not to anger Gaz or Mandy.

*End Confessional*

Half an hour later both teams had entered the woods. The Killer Bass were walking single file with Isabella, Buford and Libby in front. Pacifica, Kuki and Nazz were in the middle and Zim, Dipper and Dib in the back. Isabella was skipping happily as she enjoyed the great outdoors. "Which way to the campsite Pacifica?"

Pacifica on the other hand was not enjoying the great outdoors. She kept turning the map over trying to figure out which side was which while grumbling to herself. Not looking where she was going her foot hit a rock. "Oww! Stupid rock!" She hopped up on one foot.

"Do you need some help?" Nazz asked. "I've been camping before. I know how to read maps."

She tried to reach for the map but Pacifica pulled it back. "I've got it! I know what I'm doing Nazz!" Quickly scanning the map for a direction she blurted out the direction that sounded best. "North! We just need to keep going north."

*Confessional*

Nazz: I get the feeling Pacifica has no idea what she's doing. I try to help her but every time I do she thinks I'm trying to steal leadership from her. If we lose the challenge because of her then this alliance is over. Kuki and I have had enough.

Pacifica: I don't like the wild. What kind of idiot would honestly enjoy running around the woods waiting to get eaten by a bear? Well, besides Mabel.

*End Confessional*

Meanwhile at the back of the group Dib and Dipper were talking amongst themselves. "Pacifica's an idiot." Dipper told his friend. "I guarantee she'll get us lost out here."

"Then why don't you lead us?" Dib asked.

"And take the map from Pacifica?" Dipper scoffed. "I'd lose an arm for the effort. Trust me, that girl hates me and my sister too much to ever listen to us."

"Well I hate her," Dib clenched his fist as he walked. "She got Misery eliminated in the last challenge."

Dipper smirked as a thought occurred to him. "Hey I got a great idea. Let's team up. We both hate Pacifica so if we work together I bet we can get her eliminated!"

"An alliance huh?" Dib paused to think about it. "That sounds good. Just the two of us?"

"For now." The brunette answered. "I'm not sure who else we can trust. So…guy's alliance?" He held out his hand.

"Guy's alliance!" Dib slapped the hand in a high five.

*Confessional*

Dipper: I'm really not sure two people is enough. Especially since Pacifica has Nazz and Kuki following her around everywhere. It's too bad Mabel is on the other team. I wonder if anyone else on our team hates her…

*End Confessional*

Meanwhile the Screaming Gophers were also making their way through the woods. With Phineas, Mabel and Cindy in front, Baljeet, Mandy and Gaz in the middle and Edd, Timmy and Sheen in the back they made a good deal of noise going through the forest.

Phineas was looking the map over while Mabel held onto the compass. "Looks like our campsite is to the west. Got that Mabel?"

"West? Got it!" The easily excited girl hopped onto a fallen log and stretched out her arm towards the west. "This way everyone!" Jumping off the log she spread her arms out like an airplane and ran off.

"Hey Mabel wait up," Cindy dashed forward. Grabbing the shorter girl by the back of her sweater she stopped her in her tracks. Mabel gagged slightly before coming to a stop. "Don't go running off like that or you'll get lost. Got it?"

"Uh huh!" She nodded. "But don't worry so much Cindy. We're on an adventure! I plan to find that bear!"

"Are you a moron?" Cindy asked raising her voice. "Any bear you find will probably try to eat you!"

"You don't know that." The imaginative girl pouted. "Maybe it'll want to be friends!"

Phineas chuckled, "There's no point trying to rationalize with Mabel. Give it up Cindy."

The blonde sighed. "I guess you're right."

*Confessional*

Mabel: Cindy always tries to play the older sister with me. I've never had a sister so it's nice, even if we are the same age.

Cindy: Mabel is the only girl on my team I can talk to. Mandy and Gaz just creep me out and they only ever talk to each other so I'm stuck with Mabel. She's not so bad, except when she's doing something dangerously stupid. Which happens way too often now that I think about it.

*End Confessional*

At the back of the group Timmy and Sheen were in the middle of their own conversation while Edd tried to get their attention. "…so then Ultra Lord shows up and bam!" Sheen exclaims. "Ker-pow! The bad guy falls to the ground defeated! And the day is saved once again!"

"Wow! Awesome!" Timmy pretends to punch the trees they pass in the forest repeatedly. "That's almost as cool as the time the Crimson Chin…"

"Hey guys…" Double D interrupted.

"Not now Double D," Sheen shushed him. "Go on Timmy."

"Okay so anyway then…"

"But guys this is important…"

"Hold your horses!" Timmy told him. "Just let me finish my story." Defeated Edd's shoulder slumped as he walked toward the others and left the two alone. "Okay so where was I?"

"Uhhh…I forget." Sheen laughed. "Hey look over there!" He points to a large stump ten feet to the side of where they were walking. They quickly leave the group and the path to investigate the stump.

"Wow this is huge." Sheen kicks the stump with the side of his foot. He climbed on top of it and posed. "I am Ultra Lord!" he announced dramatically.

"Hey Ultra Lord, catch!" Timmy says throwing a nice sized stick at Sheen. The goofball caught it but was unsure what to do with it until he noticed Timmy had one of his own.

"En garde!" The boy with the pink hat thrusts the stick out like a sword.

"Take that!" Sheen swings his stick at Timmy who blocks with his own make believe weapon. The two exchange pretend blows for a few minutes before getting tired out.

Sheen looks around. "Hey Timmy, where are the others?"

Timmy's eyes grew wide. "WHAT?" He frantically looks around in every direction for some sign of their teammates. "Oh crud they're gone!"

"Well they can't have gone that far!" Sheen said. "Let's go look for them."

"Hurry!" Both boys run further into the woods with no clue where they're going.

*Confessional*

Timmy: They're gone! Our group walked away while we were screwing around. I knew something was wrong! I knew part of my brain was telling me I was having too much fun! I hope we're not lost…

*End Confessional*

It was growing dark and the Killer Bass were getting tired. "Haven't we passed that tree before?" Buford pointed to a tree that had been knocked over.

"He's right." Kuki frowned. "That's the third time!"

Zim points to Pacifica. "That stupid human girl doesn't know where we're going!"

"Hey shut up you green freak!" She shouts back at him.

"Zim is right for once," Dipper steps forward. "You don't know what you're doing Pacifica."

*Confessional*

Zim: For ONCE? Zim always knows what he's doing! Filthy humans never appreciate Zim!

*End Confessional*

The team surrounded Pacifica. She started to get intimidated so she threw the map angrily down at the ground. "Fine! Take the stupid map! Just because I don't know how to read a map doesn't make it my fault we're lost!"

Dipper picked up the map. "Okay, anyone know how to read a map?" Isabella and Nazz's hand shot straight up. "Good, me too. Now give me the compass Pacifica."

"The what?"

"The compass." Libby sighed. "That circular thing Chris gave you with the map."

"Oh that." Pacifica pauses. "Yeah I lost it."

"You WHAT?" Libby freaked.

"Okay…does anyone know how to read a map without a compass?" Dipper asked.

"I can do that!" Isabella raised her hand. She walked over to Dipper and he handed her the map. "My fireside girl's training comes in handy more often than I thought. Alright team, follow me!"

With Isabella in front the Killer Bass turned around and walked the right way toward their camp.

Meanwhile the Screaming Gophers had found their campsite. It was right underneath a very large, old tree. "We made it." Phineas said putting away the map and compass.

"Oh good," Baljeet sat down on a log. "I am not good at strenuous exercise."

"So now we have to build a fire, find food and put up the tent." Cindy explained. "Who wants to do what?"

While she was assigning that Mandy was looking around. "Hey has anyone else noticed we're missing two idiots?"

Mabel did a 360 degree spin. "Sheen and Timmy are gone!"

"They probably fell in a hole and died." Gaz didn't bother looking up from her game slave. Suddenly a flashing red light filled her video game screen. She searched her pockets but they were empty. Her normally closed eyes suddenly opened. "Oh no. Anything but that!"

"What?" Mandy asked.

"I'm…I'm out of batteries!" She exclaimed. "And my game just ran out of power!" Gaz watched as her handheld console died in her arms. "No!"

"Confessional*

Gaz: Must…find…batteries…

*End Confessional*

After wandering around the forest for another hour the Screaming Gophers finally found their campsite. "And…we're here." Isabella gave a tired smile.

"Nice job Isabella." Dipper said falling to his knees. After walking around the forest all day he and the rest of the team were all pretty tired.

"Ughh I'm so hungry!" Pacifica put a hand over her stomach as it groaned. "Where's the food?"

"The map says we have to find our own food." Libby explained.

Pacifica looked around. "I still don't see it."

"We have to hunt for it!" Buford said.

"Umm…I don't think so." The spoiled girl rolled her eyes. "Kuki, Nazz, go find food."

Kuki and Nazz looked at each other.

*Confessional*

Kuki: Pacifica was really nice at first, but now…not so much. I don't want to go out in the wild and get eaten by wolves! I wouldn't do that for a new rainbow monkey, much less Pacifica!

Nazz: Count to ten Nazz…don't lose it. That girl is really trying my patience.

*End Confessional*

Meanwhile Timmy and Sheen were still wandering the woods looking for their team. "Screaming Gophers? Screaming Gophers!" Sheen called out for the hundredth time. "Where are you?"

"Give it a rest Sheen!" Timmy leaned against a tree as he caught his voice. "We've been calling out forever and haven't found them! Let's face it: we're lost!"

Sheen fell to his knees. "What are we gonna do? I'm starving and we don't have any food!"

"And it's starting to get cold." Timmy rubbed his arms with his hands. "We can't exactly build a fire out here."

"Let's keep walking." Sheen suggested. "Maybe we'll find the others that way!"

*Confessional*

Sheen: Okay so it was a long shot but I didn't have any other ideas! I don't work well under pressure!

*End Confessional*

The two kept walking and eventually found a cave. "Look Timmy a cave!" Both boys quickly ran inside. "We're saved!"

"Well it's better than nothing." Timmy looked around. "Let's just hope nothing else lives here."

Back at the Gopher's camp things were not looking up. Edd and Baljeet had been sent out for food and just returned. "All we could find were these berries." Double D said as he and Baljeet showed their teammates handfuls of blue berries.

"Is that all?" Mabel's stomach growled hungrily.

"Let me try one." Cindy popped a berry into her mouth. She made a face. "They're…okay." It was obvious from her voice that they were less than enjoyable. She and Mabel had just finished setting up the tent while Phineas and Mandy got a fire going. Gaz hadn't done anything but hold herself in the fetal position.

Mandy grit her teeth at the sight of the blue berries. "You're pathetic!" She knocked them out of Baljeet's hands. "I'll go get some real food."

Five minutes later she returned with an entire deer recently killed. It had its neck snapped rather violently. "There I got dinner. Now somebody else has to cook it."

"I'm not sure whether to be impressed or horrified." Cindy whispered to Mabel. The brunette nodded.

It was dark by the time they got the deer cooking. Everyone was too hungry to care how Mandy got the food as long as they got to eat it. "It'll be done soon." Edd told them.

"I'm so hungry!" Mabel groaned.

Just then the Gophers heard sounds coming from the bushes behind them. They looked on fearfully as a live bear emerged from the bushes. It made its way into their camp drawn by the smell of the deer. The campers backed up as it came closer.

"What do we do?" Cindy asked. No one had lost it yet but the Gophers were all freaking out on the inside. Edd looked ready to faint and Baljeet had pissed himself. Gaz seemed to be the only one unaffected as she was still in the fetal position.

Phineas quickly looked around and spotted the large tree. "Into the tree!"

Everyone quickly ran over to the tree and started to climb. Mandy even grabbed Gaz and dragged her over. They started to climb frantically but the bear didn't attack or make any sudden moves. A few minutes later they were all up in the tree. Baljeet was on the top branch alone while everyone else was on one of the lower two branches.

"I take it back!" Mabel said clinging to the tree. "I don't really want to meet a bear! I'm sorry!"

Then something horrible happened. The bear began to eat their dinner.

"Not the food!" Mandy growled. She pulled off a shoe and threw it at the bear. It hit him on the back then fell on the ground without the bear even noticing.

"Stuck in a tree, no tools, no food, no Ferb, could this get any worse?" Phineas asked.

Back at the Killer Bass camp they had just finished setting up the camp when Buford came back. The bully was carrying a fishing pole and an armful of fish. "Hey guys I got dinner!" Seeing this everyone rushed over to him.

"Oh wow fish!"

"I'm starving! Give me one!"

"Good work Buford."

"Alright stop crowding me," Buford pushing everyone aside as he made his way over to the campfire the Bass recently got started. "We got to cook them first. Unless you want to eat raw fish."

Zim shrugged. "I've eaten worse."

Buford carefully placed them over the fire to cook. As they began to cook everyone watched in great anticipation of their meal. Dipper was drooling slightly and Kuki kept jumping up and down. But then something horrible happened.

It started to rain. The fire immediately went out and with it their only chance of food. "No!" Buford slammed his fists on the ground. "NO!"

"Can't we…can't we get it started again?" Kuki asked.

"Dude its pouring rain!" Nazz shook her head.

"Everyone into the tent!" Isabella called out. Everyone rushed toward the only sanctuary they had against the rain. After a bit of pushing and shoving they all got in the tent. It was rather cramped with all nine of them inside but it was better than going outside in the rain. Soon they heard thunder and lightning and found themselves clinging together as hard rain pelted their weak little tent.

Both teams were now hungry and miserable as it rained heavily upon them. Timmy and Sheen were faring no better. It was a long night.

Eventually the sun rose back up into the sky as morning came. The Gophers hardly got any sleep at all so when they did wake up they quickly got out of the tree. The seven were shown tending to their stiff backs.

"That's the last time I sleep in a tree." Double D felt his back pop.

"Yes it is quite uncomfortable." Baljeet groaned.

"Well at least the bear is gone." Phineas said.

"After he ate our food, ruined our campsite and drove us up a tree." Mandy said. "If I ever find that bear…"

"Guys shouldn't we be heading back now?" Cindy asked.

Mandy went over to Gaz and whispered in her ear. "Hey Gaz, there's more batteries back at camp."

The comatose girl's eyes suddenly shot open. Getting out of the fetal position she got to her feet and ran off. "Where's she off to?" Mabel asked.

"Follow her!" Mandy ordered the rest of them. They quickly dropped everything and ran after the purple haired girl.

*Confessional*

Mandy: Using your opponent's weakness against them is only strategy. Now that I know Gaz's weakness I can be sure of how to dispose of her once we reach the final two.

*End Confessional*

Timmy and Sheen were waking up in the cave. "That may have been the worst night of my life."

"My back agrees with you," Sheen said aching all over.

Just then a bear showed up at the entrance to the cave. It was the same bear that had bothered the Screaming Gopher's last night and now it had returned to its cave to sleep. It spotted the two boys and growled.

Sheen and Timmy went from tired to afraid in two seconds. "Aahhh!" They both screamed.

"Run for your lives!"

"Let's get out of here!"

They both ran out of the cave and past the bear. They didn't stop but continued to sprint heading back to camp.

Meanwhile the Killer Bass were waking up. The nine of them slowly made their way out of the tent. Dipper yawned. "I didn't get any sleep."

"I think my stomach ate itself." Kuki said clenching her stomach.

Isabella rubbed her eyes and looked at the sky. "Oh no! Guys I think we overslept. We got to go!"

The Bass quickly packed up and set out at once running back to camp.

Chris was waiting at the campfire pit with a cup of coffee when the Gophers made it back it out of the wilderness and back to camp. They all stopped to catch their breath. "We…we did it!" Mabel gasped. "We're the first ones back!"

Less than a minute later the nine members of the Bass team arrived. "Oh no they beat us here." Pacifica turned to Dipper. "This is all your fault!" She knocked him down.

"My fault?" He repeated her words. "What did I do?"

But before they could argue further Chris interrupted. "Not so fast Killer Bass. It seems the Gophers are missing a few members."

"You mean Timmy and Sheen?" Phineas guessed correctly.

"I'm pretty sure they both died." Mandy told the host. "That bear must've eaten them."

Just then both Timmy and Sheen ran out of the forest and collapsed at their team's feet. "We made it back!" Timmy exclaimed.

"We're alive!" Sheen would've cheered if he wasn't so tired. "I thought that bear would've eaten us for sure!"

"You idiots!" Mandy punched them both in the face. "Thanks to you we just lost the challenge!"

Both boys turned to Chris who nodded. "Alright Screaming Gophers, one of your butts is going home!" he told them and then turned to the other team. "Bass, you're going on an all expense paid trip to…the tuck shop!" The Bass cheered.

The Gophers all turned to glare at Timmy and Sheen. Sheen gulped. "Umm Timmy, I think we might've messed up dude."

"Yeah," Timmy nodded. "Big time."

Later that night the nine remaining members of the Screaming Gophers were gathered together at the campfire pit. Timmy, Sheen, Mabel, Baljeet and Edd sat on logs in the back row while Mandy, Phineas, Gaz and Cindy sat in the front row. Gaz had found new batteries for her game slave and was now back to normal as she played the game. She didn't bother looking up as Chris approached them.

"You've all cast your votes," Chris started. "The camper who does not receive a marshmallow must immediately hit the dock of shame, grab the boat of losers and get the heck out of here. And you can't come back. Ever." He used his finger to empathize this last point.

"Now I can see you're all tired so tonight I'll just throw them to you." He grabbed a marshmallow off of the tray. "Savvie? Mabel!" he tossed the marshmallow to the girl.

"Baljeet."

"Cindy."

"Mandy."

"Phineas."

"Gaz."

"Edd."

He tossed a marshmallow into the hands of each of the names he called. Then the only two left were Timmy and Sheen. Both looked at each other with a worried expression. "Boys, this is the final marshmallow of the evening. And it goes to…

…

…

…..Timmy." He tossed the marshmallow to the boy in the pink hat. At first he looked relieved, but then sad at what that meant. Sheen sighed in defeat. Instead of his usual hyper smile he now wore a frown.

*Confessional*

Mandy: Both of those idiots lost us the challenge, but Sheen is definitely the worse of the two. Timmy is far less annoying then that Ultra Lord freak.

Gaz: I hate Sheen. I don't even care about that other kid I just want Sheen gone.

*End Confessional*

"Sheen bro, the dock of shame awaits." The host pointed toward the dock.

Sheen stood up. Well…it was fun while it lasted! See you guys later!" he waved before walking toward the dock.

"Sheen wait!" Timmy called out after him. Sheen stopped halfway across the dock. "Hey I'm…I'm sorry."

Sheen smiled. "It's cool dude. It's not your fault I got eliminated. He held out his hand. "Friends?"

Timmy smiled as he shook Sheen's hand. "Friends."

"I'll be rooting for you. Go win Timmy!"

"You got it!" Timmy said as he watched his friend get on the boat of losers. Sheen waved until the boat was too far away for Timmy to see.
