A/N: Got a new logo for the story which is awesome. Thanks to TheProtectorOfHim. Also, Pokémon FTW will be creating a TDBB:OTT season right after Total Drama Big Brother 2. Obviously, he told me this and I was cool with it even helping him narrow down his choices for a cast. Anyway, stick around for that and much more!

Previously on Big Brother: Tep was going through with his plan to get out Sayde while Conor was on the fence about everything. Arnold tried getting inside Conor's head about the ordeal, but Conto stood clear of him. At the live eviction, the plan was foiled when Jose bit the dust and was sent to the Jury House. At the HOH competition, Conor won his first HOH and the battleines have been drawn in the Starter Pack. Who will Conor go after and who will be the influence? Find out right now on Total Drama Big Brother!

Chapter 27- Influenced

The houseguests came in from the backyard after Conor won HOH. He stared at Tep, who smiled and waved at him, and to Cody, who crossed his arms.

Conor(Head of Household): Talk about being between a rock and a hard place. I got caught up in winning that I completely forgot about the two deterring sides in the Starter Pack. Cody and Tep will battle for my attention. I'm not sure this week will end well.

Cody turned to Sayde and Ellie, who looked at him with worried expressions.

"What's wrong, Cody?" Sayde asked.

"Tep has been conspiring with Conor and I'm afraid he'll do it again." Cody replied.

"Conspiring?" Ellie asked.

"To get Sayde out." Cody replied as he pointed at his teammate.

"Seriously? Can we put the past to rest?" Sayde asked, getting frustrated.

"Tep is going to ruin thing withnus getting to the final five. I need to talk with Conor before he gets that chance." Cody replied.

Ellie: I voted Sayde out, because Jose was my friend and I couldn't bring myself to do that to him. Sayde is also my friend and I'll definitely keep her in this house. Tep and Conor, however, still hate Sayde after what Chowa did.

Cody: If Tep thinks he runs this group, he's wrong. We agreed to make a pact to the final five to get outsiders out. He's not living up to that promise.

Cody and Conor went into the storage room as Cody stood near the counter.

"Has Tep said anything regarding nominations?" Cody asked.

"Nope. He just said congrualtions." Conor replied.

"So he hasn't tried persuading you to put someone up?" Cody asked.

"Look, I know you probably know about what he did, but he's cool." Conor replied.

"It's not cool infringing the group's purpose. He is trying to just get you and him to the final two." Cody explained.

"I know he is. I've tried to get him to stop, but he insists." Conor stated.

"Well, just listen to this advice. Don't let him influence you. The last thing we need is another Alejandro." Cody explained.

Conor(Head of Household): What do I do? Do I put Tep up to keep him in check or do I put Sayde up? It's a good thing to do since she has caused trouble around us, but Tep is literally blowing our cover. Maybe both could go up and I can decide from there.

Kimberly sat down at the kitchen table as she ate some crackers. Arnold came in and groaned.

"You're here?" Arnold asked.

"Man, you just trying to be Brady." Kimberly replied.

"I'm not a hopeless flirt like he was. The fact that you keep popping up where I just happen to be sacres me." Arnold stated.

"If you want to self-evict, the door is up front." Kimberly retorted.

Arnold: Why must Kim be so stubborn? Why must she be where I am? How does she do it?

"It's pure speculation how I'm always around here. You got a crush on me?" Kimberly teased with a giggle.

"Definitely not. One to date someone as obnoxious as you would have to be out of their minds." Arnold stated.

"You're not bad looking, but I'm seeing that 500K right now. It's a slow relationship." Kimberly stated.

"Then unfortunately it won't work out when I steal him from you." Arnold retorted.

Kimberly: I wonder if he realizes what he was implying there.

Arnold: NO! THAT'S NOT WHAT I WAS IMPLYING AT ALL! I WAS MERELY DETAILING ABOUT HOW I WILL WIN THE MONEY! I'M NOT GAY!

Conor came through the Diary Room with his HOH Key.

"Who wants to see my HOH Room?!" Conor yelled.

Everyone cheered and clapped as they went up the spiral staircase. Conor opened the door and went straight for the gift basket. He got a bunch of Bruce Lee movies he could watch on the plasma TV.

"Ah man! Bruce Lee, my idol!" Conor exclaimed.

Conor(Head of Household): Bruce Lee was pretty much the man growing up. My bro loved him and I idolized him when he battled other martial artists.

Conor received basics stuff like candy and sweets. He grabbed the letter and sat down.

"It from my brother. Dear little bro, I'm so proud you managed to tough it through this summer. You've had me worried since you made a lot of enemies, but you're the man of this game. You've made me proud in more ways than I can count and I know you can win. Just don't screw up when you're this close. Love ya, bro!" Conor read.

Ellie and Sayde touched their hearts cooing as Tep wiped a tear away.

Tep: I'm not crying! I have something in my eye and it ain't crust. At least, I'm pretty sure it isn't. *pokes eye* Ah *************!

Cody hugged Conor as Conor sat back down to eat some sweets. Everyone stayed around until they filed back out so Conor could enjoy himself.

"Very beautiful being the king for the week." Dana stated as she came back in.

"I don't know about royalty, but it's a pleasant experience." Conor explained as he down some Milk Duds.

"Don't let it go to your head, though." Dana warned as she sat on the couch.

"What are you here for anyway?" Conor asked.

"I know you plan to put me and Arnold up like everyone else does, but the main person you want to deal with is Kimberly." Dana replied.

"Kimberly?" Conor asked.

"She and Arnold have been spending a lot of time together. She could be trying to steal his attention to buy a vote. She knows her way with men very well." Dana replied.

"They practically hate each other. Are you sure about this?" Conor asked.

"I wouldn't be sitting here if I wasn't." Dana replied.

Dana: Of course my added words into Kimberly's mouth will make sure that puts doubt of Kimberly in Conor's head. I know they aren't dating since Arnold was clearly into Jela. Unless he's cheating on her.

Conor(Head of Household): Sayde, Tep and now Kimberly on the list. This job is getting much harder as they say goes by. Lots of people to consider.

XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX

Sayde was washing dishes since they were almost out when Arnold came around the corner.

"Hello Sayde." Arnold greeted.

"Oh hey, Arnold." Sayde greeted.

"Listen, I know listening to me will be as easily as watching paint dry, but I just want to say that I'm not a bad guy. Sure, I've made some bad decisions, but this is a game and you have to play tough sometimes to win." Arnold explained.

"Well, your actions don't seem very genuine." Sayde stated as she crossed her arms.

"How do you think I got this far without even going home? I'm a masterful player, because I play tough." Arnold boasted.

"You're not masterful...or smart for that matter. How you survive is beyond me, but it's not going to happen for much longer. You'll be on your way out soon." Sayde stated as she tossed the dish towel over her shoulder.

"As I see it, I'm protected. There's obviously a reason why you guys don't want me gone." Arnold retorted.

"It's probably because we had another target in mind. Don't feel so special." Sayde stated.

"I feel like I'm just on the top of the freaking world. You're only making it easier for me to get the half mil." Arnold explained.

"Putting you up and not voting you out is helping? We don't have a target to get out this week so looks like your luck ran out." Sayde stated with a confident smirk.

"We shall see." Arnold stated.

Arnold: Sayde is too confident and this is why I've been wanting her out for awhile now. She's too predictable looking to put up weak players and decide from the remains who should be eaten. I'm going to make sure she is out sooner or later.

Sayde: Arnold is predictable and acts like he's a god, because we don't vote him out. It's dangerous, but we have other options that won't bite us in the future. We have the numbers to succeed. You might as well call us the Wolf Pack 2.0.

XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX

Arnold went up to the HOH Room as he bumped into Conor coming out.

"Watch it!" Conor exclaimed.

"My apologies." Arnold apologized.

"You probably bumped into me to talk to me." Conor stated.

"Transparent as ever, but I did want to say something. I understand the difficulties you face between Tep and Cody. You don't know who to put up, but your biggest benefit would the stronger players." Arnold explained.

"You mean like Sayde, Cody or Kimberly?" Conor asked.

"Yes. They have the most power in this game and your best bet would be to try to get them out. Cody has the numbers to stay, but Sayde and Kimberly don't have much support going for them." Arnold replied.

Conor(Head of Household): I wouldn't have gin after Cody, but Sayde and Kimberly do have the most power. Sayde can win a lot of competitions to win HOH as she already has four wins under her belt. Kimberly is manipulative and plays very hard to win. Those are my options along with Tep.

"Whatever you decide, it needs to be smart." Arnold stated.

"I see what you're saying, but I won't do it for your benefit." Conor warned.

"Do it for your benefit only. This is your week to rule and change the game for the possible better." Arnold stated.

"Whatever. Just let me pass." Conor stated as he pushed pass Arnold.

Arnold: I got into Conor's head and it worked out well. Although, I would like Sayde to be the one to head home this week. The next part will be convincing possible voters. Tep is convinced and I can get Dana onboard. Cody might be challenging and Ellie is stubborn. Not very many options left.

XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX

Kimberly was chilling in the pool when Ellie came out and joined her.

"Hey there." Kimberly greeted.

"Hello." Ellie greeted.

"How's it feel to be this far in the game?" Kimberly asked.

"Really nerve wracking, because I haven't won a competition and feel like a floater." Ellie replied.

"It's alright. You don't necessarily need to play the game too hard to get to where we are." Kimberly stated.

"There's probably viewers out there that don't think I belong here." Ellie depanned.

"Nonsense. Everyone has someone they are rooting for and I bet America wants you to win." Kimberly explained.

"You really think so?" Ellie asked.

"Sure, why not? Everyone started out 0% chance of winning until we got further down the line. You may have the lowest chances of winning, but you still have time to make up. Do it for your fans!" Kimberly replied.

Ellie: I guess Kim is right when she saids I probably do have fans out there. I just need to believe in myself to win this game. I've made it this far and I hope to be able to win some competitions in the near future.

Conor walked across the living room as he passed the TV saying 'NOMINATIONS TODAY'. He stopped at the Memory Wall taking out the keys for everyone. He went up to the HOH Room as he sat down on the couch.

Conor(Head of Household): I have a lot of options and a lot of people to put up. Tep seems to be popular and so does Sayde. Kimberly's name has been said a few times so I think I know what to do.

Everyone started to come into the dining room to sit down. Conor brought in the nomination block sitting it down on the table.

"This is the nomination ceremony. As Head of Household, it's one of my duties to nominate two houseguests for eviction. I shall turn the keys in the nomination block to lock in my nominations and their faces will appear on the Memory Wall. The first houseguest I've nominated for eviction is…" Conor explained before turning the first key.

Tep's face appeared on the Memory Wall as he raised an eyebrow at his closest ally.

"The second houseguest I've nominated for eviction is…" Conor continued as he turned the second key.

Kimberly's face appeared on the Memory Wall as he glared at Conor.

"I've nominated you, Tep, and you, Kimberly, for eviction. Tep, you are my best friend in this house, but you've been trying to run my game as your own. I wanna keep you in check for what you're doing. Kim, you are a strong player and you knew this would be where you would be eventually. Not saying you guys are my target this week, but I need to mold my gameplan for the week. This nomination ceremony is adjourned." Conor concluded.

Everyone started to get up as Tep had a sour taste in his mouth.

Tep(Nominee): If this is for the Sayde thing, I'm sorry, but she can't be trusted. Does the pre-Jury stage ring a bell, pal?

Kimberly held her head as Ellie hugged her.

Kimberly(Nominee): Take a shot at me and you'll be deeply sorry. Conor, we had a deal going to stay out of each other's way and that deal got broken. See you on the block next week.

Cody smiled as he hugged Sayde real tight.

Cody: Maybe Tep will learn to shut the hell up when he's suppose to now. If not, he'll be seeing Julie by Thursday.

Who will win the Power of Veto and will be able to save Tep or Kimberly from eviction? Find out Wednesday 8/7c on Big Brother!

A/N: Twists and turns! Anyway, I think it's time for a special occasion. It's time to vote for America's Favorite Player. Here's the deal: you will PM me your vote for who you want to win an extra $25,000 by the finale. However, there is one rule: you can't vote for your own OC. I know that may seem not fair, but fairness is what I value the most so please give votes to any one of the other houseguests. See ya guys til then!
