Episode 11: rolling on a river

…...

Chris stood on the dock of shame, prepared to give the intro.

"Last time on total drama we had our contestants face their fears, some did and some didn't. Some had… odd… phobias, some had reasonable one. But in the end Jessica was the one to bite the dust. Who will leave this time? Tune in to find out! Only on…

Theme song

Oscar was sitting in a rocking chair on the deck; next to him was Steve and Charlie.

"Isn't this the life?" Oscar asked. "We hold all the cards on this team, we rule with an iron fist. There's nothing anyone can do to stop us from winning this contest."

Steve nervously twiddled his thumbs. "Right…"

"Something up?" Oscar asked.

"No, no nothings up…" Steve said.

…..

Confessional:

Steve. "Okay I was suspicious at first but now I believe Oscar might be evil."

Emerald was sitting on a rock on the beach playing with her hair.

"How can this be?" she asked herself. "How did Leon… how could he know…. How could have Bud known?"

"Known what?" Noah asked.

Emerald turned around startled and sighed when she realized it was just Noah.

"Oh it's nothing." Emerald said.

"Leon knows you work for Chris." Noah said.

Emerald stared at him in awe. "buh… H..How…"

"My labels 'The high I.Q.'." Noah said. "I figured it out on the first day."

"You're not going to tell anyone are you?" Emerald asked.

"I have no reason to." Noah said.

"Thanks," Emerald said, not knowing what else to say. "But it still doesn't answer my question on how Leon and Bud figured it out."

"Maybe their cheating… or at least one of them is." Noah said. "You could probably get Chris to look into it."

"He doesn't listen to me." Emerald said.

"He has to if there's any suspicion of any of the contestants cheating." Noah said.

"Right!" Emerald said. She stood up quickly and rushed off. "Thanks Noah bye."

Scott was standing on the dock of shame wearing trunks, a snorkel, goggles, a rubber ring and arm floaties. In the distance Fang was sleeping on a buoy floating in the lake.

"Okay," Scott said. "just need to swipe the idol from Fang before he wakes up… why am I saying this out loud? I know what I need to do."

He got into the water as quietly as he could, he stuck his head under water so only the top of the snorkel was showing. He made his way over to Fang. Once he reached the buoy he stuck his head out of the water and reached for the idol around Fangs neck.

"c'mon, c'mon," Scott said quietly. His hand touched the idol. "Come to papa!"

He was then lifted out of the water by the arm and was face to face with Fang.

"Nice shark?" Scott said.

Fang balled up his free hand and punched Scott. Scott was launched toward another buoy. The metal was bent in such a way that Scott was cradled in it. Scott groaned in pain, then the Dawn idol which was situated on the top of the buoy landed hard on his crotch.

Julie was wandering around camp when she spotted Adam. With hearts in her eyes she rushed toward him.

"Hi Adam." Julie said dreamily.

"Howdy Julie." Adam said.

"What brings you around here?" Julie asked.

"The million dollars." Adam said.

Julie laughed, a little too much at the dumb joke. "Oh Adam your so funny,"

"Thanks," Adam said. After a moment of awkward silence he spoke again. "So… where you from?"

"High Level, Alberta." Julie said.

"Really?" Adam said, a little surprised. "That's cool; I live in Manning just a bit south of High Level."

"That's awesome!" Julie said. "Maybe after the competition we can hang out."

"Maybe," Adam said. The hearts reappeared in Julie's eyes, then Adam said. "I'll introduce you to my fiancé."

Julie's mouth hung open in surprise.

"Something tells me you'll make quick friends." Adam said.

…..

Confessional:

Julie. "I can't believe it! I did it again!"

….

Crystal was sitting alone in the mess hall, agitated. Hugo sat down in the chair across from her.

"Why won't you leave me alone?" Crystal asked.

"I figure you need some company." Hugo said.

"Well I don't!" Crystal said. She stood up and left.

….

Confessional:

Crystal. "Why does Hugo keep… keep… Argh!"

Dominic and Isa were lying on the roof of Polka dot cabin, staring up at the sky.

Isa turned to Dominic. "Are we dating now?"

Dominic looked at her. "I think so."

"You think so?" Isa said.

"Pretty sure," Dominic said.

"Good," Isa said and cuddled up to him.

…..

Delilah was walking through a field of flowers holding hands with Ronald.

"Oh Ronald it was so brave of you to rescue me from that beast!" Delilah said.

"It's nothing," Ronald said.

Delilah hugged Ron and kissed him on the lips, Ron's eyes widened in surprise. Delilah let go and giggled at Ron's expression. Delilah led him back to camp with a smile on her lips.

….

Confessional:

Ron. "Whoa…"

….

Oswald was sitting in a chair on his team's cabins porch. With his were Ashley, Amanda, Dia and Bud.

"What is it Bud?" Oswald asked. "I'm very busy."

"Of course you are." Bud said rolling his eyes. "I need to talk to you about Leon."

"The frenchie?" Oswald asked.

"Yes," Bud said. "he's…."

Just then Eva burst out of the cabin; she made a Bee line for Oswald, grabbed him by the ear and pulled him away.

"Never mind, talk to you later." Bud sighed.

…..

Confessional:

Bud. "Leon betrayed me; he's going to get me out of the game! I need to get rid of him before he can."

Eva. 'I don't like Oswald, do I need an excuse to drag him off into the woods and… *static*

"We're down by two members." Harold told the other boys in the cabin and Leshawna.

"Not for long," Sid said. "Chris did say that after eleven eliminations one of the teams would be disbanded and the members of that team would be placed on the teams with remaining members."

"True," Harold said. "but that doesn't mean were still not out of the fire. We need to work harder than ever if we want to survive the next challenge."

"Right,' Reginald said.

"Whatever," Richard said.

….

Confessional:

Richard. "God this team annoying. if they want to win so badly they should have voted for Joe. So what if Jessica has become a vegetable, she's a lot more useful than that coward."

Vince was sitting on his bunk looking miserable. Next to him was Bianca who was babbling on

"And then Monica said to Marco…"

Vince made a gun with his fingers and gestured shooting himself.

…..

Confessional:

Vince. "I still don't know whether I should use my idol or not. I mean I really don't want to be in this game, everyone is here is so annoying. But a million dollars would be nice. Hmmm…."

…..

Emerald made her way to the intern tent ad barged in. inside Eli was sipping coffee.

"What's up with you?" Eli asked.

"I think someone has been cheating." Emerald said.

"Cheating?" Eli asked, unimpressed. "How so?"

"Because Leon and Bud know I'm working for Chris." Emerald said.

"They could have just figured it out." Eli said.

Emerald shook her head. "Could you please just look into it?"

Eli rolled his eyes. "Yeah fine, whatever."

"Thank you," Emerald said.

The remaining campers had gathered on the beach with Chris stood in front of them.

"Welcome campers to the next challenge!" Chris announced. "And luckily for you it's an easy one. There are twelve boats on the beach behind me." He motioned to the twelve small boats. "Each team will use the boat and race them to picturesque Boney Island! Once you reach the island you must collect the materials you need for a bon fire, whichever team lights their bonfire last loses and has to go straight to the elimination ceremony. The challenge starts… NOW!"

The twelve teams rushed over to the boats. They launched them out into the water and climbed on.

"Quick!" Heather said standing at the bow. "We have to keep up our winning streak!"

"We're hurrying!" Jo said. She Collette, Lightning and Brick were paddling the boat. "Keep your pants on."

Brick blushed at hearing this comment and was distracted. He stroked his paddle too hard and hit Collette in the back of the head.

Collette growled and slammed her own paddle on top of Bricks head.

Lightning sighed with hearts in his eyes when he saw this.

Confessional:

Lightning. "C'mon Lightning, get it together! You gotta make her your girl!"

…..

"We got to do something!" Sierra said. "We're falling behind!"

Ezekiel looked around the boat, him, Pete, Gerome and Oscar were paddling the boat. He took particular notice to Charlie who was pacing back and forth.

"I have an idea." Ezekiel said.

He stood up, went over to Charlie and pushed him over the back of the boat into the water. Charlie emerged from the water and grabbed onto the edge.

"Charlie I need you to run like your life depended on it." Ezekiel said.

"Okakiedokieartichokie!" Charlie said.

Charlie started kicking his feet and the boat took off like a rocket. The managed to take the lead, a large wake washed over Green team.

"Kiss our wake!" Keith yelled at Green team.

"You little punk!" Duncan yelled, waving his fist.

"How's that possible?" Miguel asked.

"It's simple physics." Noah said. "You see…."

Duncan interrupted him. "No time for that. We need to pick up the pace!"

Green team paddled as fast as they could and seemed to catch some speed.

Mitch, Greg, Alice and Gilbert were paddling the boat for their team. They watched as Green team passed them.

"We need to pick up the pace." Mitch said and started padding faster.

Alice grabbed Gilbert and threw him over the edge of the boat. "Move it!"

Albert helped Gilbert back onto the boat as it started to speed up.

For White team the chill town alliance and Carlos were paddling the boat. Hyde was sitting in the back with Tina.

"So Tina you…" Hyde tried to say and started to trip on his word. "Need… like… have a… erhm…. I'll just go now…" he stood up and left.

"Smart choice," Tina said.
….

Confessional:

Hyde. "Oh god I'm so lame…"

Jimmy, Frank, Geoff and Dominic were rowing the boat.

"The waters surprisingly calm," Bridgette said. "I would have expected Chris to schedule this challenge on a day we have a hurricane or something."

"Canada doesn't get hurricanes…. Does it?" Julie asked.

"I've never been in one." Geoff said.

Will was standing in the front of the boat. He took in a deep breath. "Ah, the high seas, where adventure awaits."

"Did he just speak normally?" Sam asked.

Christopher shrugged. "I doubt it. He disillusions himself away from the world our lord and creator has blessed us with."

"To be fair most wars and problems in the world are caused by religious zealots." Sven said.

"No their not!" Christopher said. "They are caused by blasphemers."

Sven started counting off his fingers. "World war two, the witch trials, war in the middle east.'

"Those are the heathen Muslims." Christopher said.

"Their actually a sub religion of Christianity." Sven said. "They actually follow the Christian bible more closely than most Christens. They still hold onto the teaching of Jesus and also the belief that he is a profit not the savior."

"Blasphemy!" Christopher yelled.

"Also Christianity is a sub religion of Judaism." Sven said.

"You son of a…" Christopher started to say, but Izzy jumped onto his head, screaming.

"I must drain you cerebral juices!" Izzy exclaimed. Christopher yelled and tried to pry her off.

"I've decided I don't want to hear anymore of this." Bridgette said. "I feel that standing around you guys would drop my popularity a few points." She went to the back of the boat.

Christopher pried Izzy off his head. "So I guess you think if Atheists controlled the world there would be less violence?"

"Yeah," Sven said. "Everyone would just be a lot bitchier."

Bridgette got to the back of the boat and noticed Julie sitting by herself. She sat down next to the cow girl.

'Are you okay?" Bridgette asked.

"Yeah, I'm just… an idiot." Julie said.

"Oh come on now." Bridgette said. "What's got you down?"

"Adam's engaged." Julie said.

"Oh…" Bridgette said. "Well, don't worry. There's a guy out there for you, you just have to look for him.'

Julie sighed. "I sure hope so…"

Ron and Delilah were holding hands in the back of their team's boat.

"Isn't it a beautiful day to sail Ronald?" Delilah asked.

"Even more beautiful because of you." Ron said.

"Oh Ronald," Delilah said.

"Are you guys together?" Katie asked.

"Indeed we are." Delilah said.

Katie and Sadie hugged each other and squeed. Zach covered his ears in annoyance.

Orange team snailed their way by Pink team. Their boat was leaning to one side because of Owen.

"Owen for the last time, if you don't want to capsize the boat, please SIT IN THE MIDDLE!" Daniel said.

"Sorry," Owen said. He scooted onto the middle of the boat next to the paddlers.

Somewhere in the middle of the midsts of the boats was team Purple. Paddling their boat was Reginald, Ulrich, Sid and Harold.

"Paddle faster!" Richard said. "The poor people are getting ahead."

"I remember this guy being a lot less annoying." Reginald said.

"To be fair we've been more focused on Carrie and Jessica." Sid said.

Grey team made their way past Purple team. Alex was standing at the head of the boat.

"Alright team, we can do this." Alex said. "Our goal is within our grasp. We just need to set our sights on reaching it."

Ashton was sitting in the back of his team's boat playing with his lighter. As he flicked it on Alex snatched it away.

"And no more fire." Alex said and threw it into the water.

Ashton's mouth hung ajar then he scowled.

Confessional:

Ashton. "I can't believe that goody two shoes did that. He is so going down!"

Alex. "I totally forgot we needed to light a fire and I just threw away our advantage…"

…..

Oswald was sitting in the back of Brown teams boat while; Eva, Todd, Bud and Erica rowed. Dia was fanning him with a large palm leaf and Ashley and Amanda cuddled next to him.

"Guys I need to talk to you." Bud said to the other rowers.

"What about?" Todd asked.

Bud began. "About Leon he…"

"Pick up the pace ladies!" Oswald interrupted. "We're falling behind!"

Eva growled.

"Ignore him," Bud said. "this is more important. Leon is ev…"

"Are you lazy lumps even trying?" Oswald said and laughed. Amanda and Ashley laughed with him.

Eva stood up with the paddle in hand. She stood over Oswald, her shadow overlapped him.

"Hey, get out of my sun." Oswald said. "I'm trying to get a tan."

Eva raised the paddle into the air and Oswald screamed.

Eva beat Oswald off screen. Bud and the others cringed at the sight.

"… maybe later…" Bud said.

Confessional:

Bud. "They need to know Leon's planning on taking over the game. He already has so much power even those psychic girls know of it. He has to be taken down!" *he thought for a moment then smiled evilly* "so I can take over in his place."

…..

"What are you doing?" Monique asked B.

B just smiled and tinkered with his contraption in the back of the boat. Monique rolled her eyes and headed back to the front. She passed D.J., Adam, Mike and Dean who were paddling the boat and sat next to Bianca.

Bianca was speaking a mile a minute, next to her Vince was covering his ears in annoyance.

"Should I feel sorry for him?" Zoey asked.

"No," Isa said. The two girls laughed.

Standing at the very front of the boat was Quincy. Her hands were placed in front of her chest as she stared out toward the island.

"It's funny," Quincy said. "Whenever I watched this show I felt a strong presence coming from Boney Island. But now, there is nothing, like, it's not the real Boney island."

"You felt a presence from the T.V.?" Vince asked.

Quincy ignored him.

Suddenly the boat took off like a rocket and the team passed all the other teams. The team turned around and saw that B had completed his gadget.

Polka dot team's boat hit Boney Island's beach and the team flew out, scattered among the foliage.

"Congrats Polka dot!" Chris announced from an over head helicopter. "You have the advantage of being the first to build your fire!"

"whooo…." Dean cheered from a tree before the branch snapped and he landed on top of Adam.

Blue teams boat reached the beach next.

"Quick while their licking their wounds!" Ezekiel said.

Him and his team ran down the beach and spotted a couple of unlit bonfires. There was nothing to them but a circle made out of rocks.

"Aright everyone find some fuel for the fire." Ezekiel said.

The team nodded and ran into the woods.

A few minutes later, Green and Purple team landed o the beach and went off to find fuel. Next came Brown team then Black. Soon Red, Yellow and Gray team arrived. White and Pink team came up behind them and in last place was Orange team.

"If it wasn't for Owens fat ass we would have gotten here faster." Ginger said.

"Let's just get the fire started." Daniel said.

Polka dot team had recovered and started searching the woods. They gathered sticks and such and Adam had found a piece of flint.

"I have to say, this team is pretty strong." Adam said. "I mean, we haven't even come close to going to the elimination ceremony."

"Were going to have to soon enough." Quincy said.

"I hope that's not for a long time." Zoey said. "Everyone on the team gets along so well… except for Vince."

"Vince seems to be the odd one out." Quincy nodded.

Vince was trailing behind the group with Bianca following him.

"I say he's going to be the first of us to go." Dean said.

"… Possibly," Quincy said after a bit of hesitation.

Blue team was searching the woods, despite being all together they were searching in groups. Gerome, Ezekiel and Sierra were one; Oscar, Steve, Charles, Pete and Keith were the other. Blaineley stayed behind.

"It's obvious that there's some tension on this team." Ezekiel told his group.

"Yeah," Sierra said. "and were in the minority."

"The first merge is just around the bend so hopefully we'll be safe for now…" Ezekiel said. "Besides I believe there may be a weak link in Oscar's alliance."

He looked over to Oscar's group at Steve.

Gerome saw this and nodded. "You may just have a point."

Purple team was making a little progress there was only one problem, Richard was a dick.

"Can't you gather faster?" Richard asked. "The other teams probably have their bonfires already."

"Quite you're whining," Harold said. "We're ahead of most of the other teams."

"You know it wouldn't kill you to help out." Reginald said.

"And get my hands dirty?' Richard asked, appalled. "No thank you."

"Then why did you come with us?" Reginald asked.

"To make sure you apes do your job." Richard said.

Reginald growled and picked up a log. He placed it over his shoulder and headed back to the beach.

…..

Confessional:

Reginald. "Just when we think we got rid of the annoying members of our team, here comes Richard."

….

Oswald was sitting on the beach, Dia was fanning him and Amanda and Ashley were basking in his glory.

"Shouldn't we be helping the others?" Dia asked.

"Why should we?" Oswald asked. "If their too dumb to do the work instead of getting someone else to do it that's their own fault."

The redhead twins giggled.

"You're so smart." Amanda said dreamily.

"Back off he's mine!" Ashley said.

The twins stood up.

"No he's mine!" Amanda said.

The two girls glared at each other. Amanda tackled Ashley and he two girls began wrestling on the beach.

Eva and the rest of Brown team (the ones not on the beach) searched for fuel.

"One of these days I'm just going to snap." Eva said.

"Didn't you already do that?" Beth asked.

Eva sighed. "I guess,"

"Listen," Bud said. "I really have to tell you guys something."

"What is it?" Erica asked.

"It's about Leon," Bud said. He raised his hands in exclamation. "He's a…" suddenly a woolly beaver decided to make a snack of Bud's hand.

Bud saw his hand in the beaver's mouth and screamed. He ran away screaming and dragging the creature behind him.

Black team was having their own issues.

"There were gay people in the bible." Sven said. "They were practically god's favorites!"

"Liar!" Christopher said.

"Read the freaking book!" Sven said.

"Would you guys shut up!" Jimmy yelled waving his fist threateningly in front of their faces.

The two boys shut up but gave each other death glares.

"I can't believe I'm going to say this, but thanks Jimmy." Bridgette said.

"Whatever," Jimmy said.

…...

Confessional:

Bridgette. "Oh my god, Sven and Christopher have got to be the bad sides of their religions."

(Red team)

Willow was humming a happy song.

"Why are you so happy?" Heather asked.

"Someone left me a love letter last night." Willow said. She pulled up a piece of paper from her pocket.

She showed the note to Heather who read it skeptically.

"Any idea who wrote it?" Heather asked.

"I have an idea." Willow said dreamily.

"Leon…" Hugo said.

"You think so too!" Willow asked excitedly. "Oh I hope he reveals himself soon." She started skipping around and came face to face with a goat. "Hello Mr. Goat isn't this just a beautiful day?"

Alejandro rushed forward. "Willow! Don't mess with that…"

But it was too late, the goat breathed fire onto Willow's hair. Willow ran off toward the beach screaming and the goat gave chase.

….

Confessional:

Hugo. "Leon comforted Willow after that whole episode with Jeff. Then they never spoke to each other again… as far as I'm aware. Then after about a week Leon may have sent Willow a note. Is it just paranoia or is Leon trying to play Willow?"

….

(White team)

I don't get it." Hyde said to Samson and Carlos. "She totally turned down my advances."

He and the two other boys were lagging behind the group, talking in hushed voices.

"Maybe you came on too strong…" Samson said his eyes glued to his ipad.

"He barely spoke to her." Carlos said.

"Maybe he didn't come on strong enough." Samson said.

"That's not helping," Hyde said.

"Sorry," Carlos said. "but you have to give her time to get to know you."

"That's… not an option." Hyde said.

"How come?" Carlos asked.

"It's… nothing." Hyde said.

….

(Pink team)

Delilah and Ron were holding hands. Delilah was humming happily, Ron pulled off a slight grin.

"You guys make a cute couple." Kat said.

"Yeah," Flora said glumly.

"Ronald is so kind and brave." Delilah said. She cuddled next to Ron.

"Great," Zach said

…..

Confessional:

Zach. "Great, now that Ron and Delilah are a couple their likely to vote together, there goes our chance of a majority."

Back on the beach.

"Looks like the contestants are getting ready to light their fires." Chris said from the helicopter.

Sure enough as soon as he said that the teams exited the woods and headed for the fire pits. They dumped their fuel into the pit (some arranged their fuel in a certain way) and prepared to light their fires.

Red team ran out of the woods and dumped their fuel into the pit. Behind them Willow came out still being chased by the goat monster.

Alejandro rushed the goat, grabbed it by the throat and forced it to breathe fire into their pit.

"Red team wins immunity!" Chris announced.

"Yes!" Collette cheered. Lightning saw an opening. He grabbed Collette by the waist and spun her around in air. When he put her down she punched him and sent him sprawled on the ground.

Willow came back soaking wet after dunking her head into the lake.

"Glad that's over." Willow said with a sigh. The goat spotted her and charged her. She screamed and ran off.

"You need to light the fire." Alex said to Ashton.

"I can't," Ashton said. "You threw my lighter into the lake."

"Oh…." Alex said.

B ran over to his team after taking the mechanism from his team's boat and used it to light his team's fire.

"Polka dot safe!" Chris said.

There was a loud explosion and Izzy cackled.

"Black team's safe!" Chris announced.

"Crap," Alex said. "The one time we need pyrotechnics for a challenge… okay second but my point remains."

Kurt raised his unlit torch and dragged it across his beard and it burst into flames, he threw it in his team's fire.

"Green team's safe!"

"We're going to need some flint!" Bill said.

"Right search the beach." Alex said.

Bill nodded and he and Cory ran down the beach.

Ron was rubbing sticks in his team's fire and lit it.

"Pink teams safe!"

"Hurry up already!" Oswald said impatiently. "We're falling behind!"

Eva, who was rubbing sticks together, growled. "We're trying as hard as we can!"

The sticks sparked and a small fire settled in the pit.

"It's not much to look at but Brown team survives another night!" Chris announced.

"About time," Oswald said and turned his back on Eva. Ashley and Amanda giggled.

Eva scowled. She grabbed a hot coal, ignoring the sheering pain and shoved it down the back of Oswald's shirt.

Oswald screamed, ran and jumped into the lake. He emerged with an octopus on his head.

Confessional:

Oswald. "Eva is becoming a real pain."

…..

Blue and orange team managed to light their fires. That left Yellow, White, Purple and Grey team.

"Quicken the pace peasant!" Richard said.

Harold was rubbing sticks together trying to light his team's fire. "I would get this done faster if you would stop screaming orders into my ear!" he stood up and threw the sticks into the pit. The sticks magically burst into flames.

Richard crossed his arms and smiled smugly.

"Don't give me that smile!" Harold yelled. "You didn't do anything!"

"Didn't I?" Richard asked.

"No!" Reginald yelled. "No you didn't."

"Purple team's safe!"

Albert was striking a rock with flint over some dry grass. Sparks landed in the grass and it started to smoke. The grass the burst into flames.

"White and Gray team! One of you is heading to the elimination ceremony! You better get a move on."

Cory and Bill returned to their team with the flint.

"Good," Alex said and handed it to Ashton. "You're the fire expert. You should start the fire."

"Oh now you want me to start a fire." Ashton said.

"This is not the time." Alex said. "We'll talk after the challenge."

"What if I want to talk about it now?" Ashton asked. "Why should I listen to what you say? What makes you the leader?"

"Nothing," Alex said. "I just…"

"Just want to rule over everyone with an iron fist." Ashton said.

"Guy's," Trent said. "Can we do this later?"

"And White team wins it!" Chris announced. "Grey teams going to elimination!"

Alex seemed to be trying to hold in his rage. He sighed and rubbed his temples.

"This is your fault you know." Ashton said.

The contestants stood on the beach; the sun was setting leaving the sky a bloody orange color. A large yacht was parked and ready to take the contestants back.

"Way to go Gray team!" Chris said. "You guys managed to lose your second challenge."

"And we know whose fault that is." Ashton said.

"Why do you keep changing the spelling?" dawn asked.

"What?" Chris asked.

"You spelt gray Grey earlier." Dawn said.

"I don't…" Chris said, confused. "Whatever, just get on the boat. And Gray team, you better take the time to choose who you're voting for, because the person you vote for maybe going home."

"I don't think so,"

Chris turned around and saw Eli standing at the top of the ramp leading up to the boat.

"What do you mean?" Chris asked.

"I mean I just looked through the footage and discover that one of the contestants has been using an internet connection to get the scoop on the contestants." Eli said.

"What?! who?" Chris asked, enraged.

"Bud!" Eli said.

Brown team gasped.

"Is this true?" Chris asked. He looked around and discovered Bud was nowhere to be found. "What the… where is he?"

"Last I saw him he was being mauled by a woolly beaver." Beth said.

"Oh yeah, those things." Chris said.

Just then Bud was brought to them in the maw of a woolly beaver. On top of the beaver was Moe the raccoon.

"Thanks for taking care of this rapscallion Ruth." Moe said. "You're a peach,"

Ruth dropped Bud. "any time," she said. Moe got off her and she walked back into the

"God that was awful," Bud said. "Why did no one look for me?"

"Bud have you been looking up spoilers on the internet?" Chris asked.

"What?" Bud said in mock surprise. "noooo…." A laptop fell from underneath his hoodie. "Crap,"

"Bud, you have broken one of the rules of total drama." Chris said. "Because of this I have no other option than to….

"Have you leave the island immediately, you are disqualified."

"But I but I… crap…" Bud said.

….

Bud carried his suit case down the dock of shame. He climbed onto the boat of losers and was taken away from the island.

Chris was standing on the dock watching the boat disappear into the sunset. With him were the members of Gray and Brown teams.

"Looks like your safe for the night." Chris said to Gray team.

Ashton scowled at Alex. "You got lucky." And walked away.

"The certainly was a twist." Chris said to the camera. "Now Brown team is down by one member. Will we have some more twists for you? Of course we will! Just tune in tomorrow for more…

BIG

BAD

TOTAL

DRAMA

ISLAND!"

Later that night Emerald snuck out of her cabin and went to the intern tent. Inside Eli was sitting in front of one of the monitors sipping from a mug.

"What's it this time?" Eli asked.

"I wanted to thank you for looking into Bud." Emerald said.

"Yeah, if Chris found out I knew there was cheating going on in the game and I knew he would have my hide." Eli said.

"Too bad we couldn't get rid of Leon." Emerald said.

"Yeah, I thought you were just being paranoid about that guy." Eli said. "But I searched the internet for this guy and turn's out your feminine instinct was right. Dude's a total dick weed."

He pulled out a print out and handed it to emerald. Emerald read the paper and as she did her eyes widened.

"Oh wow…" Emerald said. "Is the legal?"

"In most countries," Eli said. "But not France."

"But after the contest won't he have to move back?" Emerald asked.

"No," Eli said. "before the contest he moved to Ontario."

"Dear god…" Emerald said. "He's a monster!"

"That an exaggeration." Eli said. "He's just a jerk."

"He still needs to be stopped." Emerald said.

"You can't do that." Eli said. "You're an employee you can't interfere with the contestant's plans unless you come across them without our help."

"I know but there's got to be something I can do…" Emerald said. "there just has to…"

Authors note.

And so ends Bud. Bud was a new edition to the cast, I added him very late into the story writing process. Originally he was supposed to be a pervert who snuck into the girl's cabin and stole underwear (mainly Lindsay's as they were originally on the same team) which eventually got him eliminated. But this was back when I figured I was going to make the story a little more perverted than what it is now. But as I started adding words to the story I started asking myself questions like 'what does this add to the story' so I cut them all out. Because I stopped trying to make this story perverted Bud sort of lost his story line. But I found something else for him to do and keep his label as 'the sneak.' And that was being an informant for Leon (who eventually betrayed him) since I knew early on in the story that Leon was going to add members from other teams to his alliance I sort of needed a Deus ex machina as to how he knew so much about these campers.

I didn't expect this chapter to be so short. I was just trying to focus more on the challenge than the dialogue like I usually do and looked what happened. This chapter was a little experiment; I wanted to try something different with this story. Instead of having all the teams secluded from each other I kind of wanted to have them sort of… compete against each other for a lack of a better word. I know their already competing but you know what I mean, I wanted to see what happened if I didn't have the teams off doing their own thing without interaction with the other teams. And I feel that my characters are finally becoming more individual, each having their own quirk, more so than in the first few chapters.

Sorry for such a long note, but it's… necessity is questionable. But anyway, only two more eliminations from the first merge. My first milestone in this series… and it only took two years…

But any way thanks for reading
