Episode 9: Zap
Bridgette and Geoff decided to get married, and have their wedding at the very same place that they met. However, someone has snapped, and their friends have been dying. Gripz was killed to lead Billy the Intern into a trap, and Josh was killed in turn to burn down the only remaining hiding spot the survivors could go, now they can only hope, that the mainland will send a boat to their rescue, and soon!
In the think veil of darkness blanketing the hotel, Trent and Geoff carried in the corpse of Billy the Intern, while Duncan, Chef, Harold, Tyler, Noah, Gwen and Tyler went to the others.
"Who do you think could have done this to him?" Trent asked Geoff.
"We can't be certain it was any of us, we all had somebody with us," Geoff told Trent.
"You're right, so the only explanation is that there really is somebody else on the island committing the murders," Trent said.
"And if we don't do something fast, we could very well be next," Geoff added.
Back at the others, a shadowy figure was seen through the windows of the hotel.
"Yo Tyler, lets go take a look!" Duncan said.
"Ummm…right!" Tyler said, nodding, as he went with Duncan outside to see who it was, no one was there.
"Is someone playing a trick on us?" Duncan asked.
"Everyone was in there last I checked," Tyler said.
Duncan and Tyler turned around to go back inside, but behind them was…Alejandro.
"YO! Not cool bro! NOT COOL!" Duncan said, breathing heavily.
"Sorry, I merely came to help," Alejandro explained.
"So you're not the killer either right?" Tyler asked.
"No…I would never do something like this, despite the way I played the game in Total Drama World Tour, I am still a gentleman" Alejandro said gracefully.
"Well come inside, so the killer doesn't get you," Duncan said.
"Yeah, and no funny business, cause I'm not afraid to shoot ya!" Tyler said.
"Of course there will be no funny business," Alejandro said.
"Oh crap! I completely forgot, where's Lindsay?" Tyler asked.
"We weren't gonna tell you, but she's missing," LeShawna said.
"And you weren't gonna tell me this why?" Tyler demanded, as he ran into the kitchen.
"Tyler wait!" Noah yelled, running after him.
"Wait for me Noah!" Katie also said, running after them.
"Stupid LeShawna, Lindsay might be dead and she doesn't even care," Tyler screamed, banging his fists on the table.
"We don't know that for sure, I'll bet Lindsay is fine," Katie said.
"Yeah, she probably got lost on her way back from the bathroom or something," Noah said, hoping to reassure Tyler.
"This isn't funny guys, I'm serious for once!" Tyler said.
"I understand man, if Katie went missing, I'd be really sad," Noah said.
"Well I'll always stay near you Noah-kins!" Katie said playfully.
"And I'll always protect you Katie!" Noah saluted, as they kissed.
"I knew I should have stayed here!" Tyler said, "I'm so useless!"
"Tyler, stop beating yourself up, Lindsay is still alive, I'm sure of it," Noah explained.
"If she isn't, LeShawna will pay!" Tyler said angrily.
"Whatever you say, just calm down," Noah said.
"Right…," Tyler said sadly, "Lets go back out there, however, Noah and Tyler walked back out, neither noticing that Katie didn't follow them back out.
"LeShawna! Why didn't you guys go looking for Lindsay?" Tyler demanded to know.
"Boy, I don't feel like dyin, so I'm not gonna go looking for little miss dum dum lollipop!" LeShawna retorted.
"KATIE?" Noah gasped.
"Katie's gone now too?" Heather asked.
Tyler punched LeShawna, "You really are heartless, you only care about yourself," Tyler said, as he slung his shotgun over his shoulder and walked off.
"I have to find Katie!" Noah screamed.
"We'll help you out!" Harold and DJ said.
"Alright, lets go!" Noah said. As the group went back to the kitchen, they discovered a hole dug leading to underground, a little stain of blood leaked from it.
"Is that…blood?" DJ asked.
"Where do you think it leads to?" Harold asked.
"My guess, wherever Katie is," Noah gulped, "Lets go!"
Meanwhile, Tyler, Geoff, Trent, and Gwen were in the bathroom on the other side of the hotel, where there was another tunnel.
"Maybe Lindsay went down there," Tyler said.
"It's possible, lets give it a try," Geoff said.
"We're all gonna go together," Trent said.
"I'm coming too," Bridgette said as she walked in.
Duncan followed Harold, DJ, and Noah, while Chef was left to protect the girls from danger.
"So…that little off tunnel passage right there has blood coming from it, you wanna go down and check it Noah?" Duncan asked.
"You are probably the only one who could fit," DJ said.
"Yeah, whatever, hold me shotgun Harold," Noah said, giving Harold his shotgun, before getting down on his hands and knees and crawling through the small groove in the wall.
At the same time, on the other side, Gwen crawled under as well, de to her being the smallest one from her group.
"If you find anything Gwen, call up to us," Trent said.
"We'll help in anyway we can," Tyler told her.
"I hate the dark," Noah mumbled, pulling out his pocket flashlight.
"I can't see anything," Gwen said, but then she fell through a hole, and screamed.
"Gwen? Gwen are you okay?" Trent yelled.
"She's not responding!" Geoff said.
"Oh no…what if she's…," Trent said sadly.
"Gwen is not dead," Bridgette said, rolling her eyes.
"Do you see anything Noah?" Duncan asked.
"No, but I heard a scream, it sounded like Gwen," Noah said.
"Go check it out!" Duncan yelled.
"Right," Noah nodded, as he kept crawling, he eventually crawled into another corridor, but much to Noah's shock, hanging from the ceiling, cut in two, was Katie, and a disheveled Gwen sat in the corner, shaking.
"Noah…I found her…like this…I'm so sorry…," Gwen said shakily, Noah fell to his knees, the one love he ever knew had fallen victim to the very thing he swore to protect her from, she was dead now, and he couldn't do anything about it.
"I…I…failed," Noah said, crying, and punching the floor, "I FAILED!" he screamed.
"Noah, you couldn't have known that she'd be next," Gwen said.
"I still swore to protect her!" Noah wept.
"Noah, I know your sad, but we can't worry about this right now, we have to go find our way out of here," Gwen said.
"I guess you're right, lets take the way I came in," Noah said, but as they turned around, steel bars shut around the tunnel that Noah entered through, "That's reassuring," Noah said, rolling his eyes.
"So then I guess we have to go through that door," Gwen said, pointing to a door that seemed to lead into an almost endless darkness.
"If it's the only way out then we have no choice," Noah said.
"Then lets do it," Noah nodded.
"Those gates just shut!" Duncan said.
"Oh no, that means Noah is trapped!" DJ shouted.
"And if Gwen's in there too, then they're trapped together," Harold added.
"Well their both pretty smart people, I'm sure they'll find their ways out," Duncan said.
"Duncan's right, we just gotta believe in them," DJ breathed.
"That they'll both be okay," Duncan said.
Trent, Geoff, Tyler, and Bridgette all returned to the main room, where the all the others were, Duncan, Harold, and DJ all came back as well.
"It's the middle of the night, there's a killer out there, and now Noah, Katie, Gwen, and Lindsay are ALL missing?" Trent shouted, "This is awful!"
"Not to mention that with every passing second, one of our lives could be claimed next," Chef pointed out.
"Oh please! Like the killer would dare strike when we have five guys wielding shot guns with us," Heather said.
"Don't be so sure Heather, the killer did strike when me and Billy were still locked up in the prison, he killed Gripz," Alejandro said.
"So…Gripz is dead," Chef said, punching the table, "this guys twisted, I hope Sierra, Tim, and Tom are still kickin," Chef said.
"We just gotta hope that we can all get out of here safely dudes," Geoff said, "We gotta find Noah, Katie, Gwen, and Lindsay first though."
"He's right! That's our top priority, find them, before the killer does," Trent said.
"Then off we go!" Izzy said.
Meanwhile, Noah and Gwen searched deeper into the tunnels.
"I wonder if this used to be what the hotel looked like," Noah said, "Like y'know, maybe it was a prison and then got built on top of," he told Gwen.
"It sure is creepy enough," Gwen nodded.
"Hey, so…maybe we'll find Lindsay while we're down here," Noah pointed out.
"I hope so, I hope she's still alive," Gwen sighed.
"I just hope that the rest of us can make it out, and if not, I'll die here, I lost Katie…," Noah cried.
"Noah, snap out of it!" Gwen said.
"Huh? Gwen…Katie was the first girl I've ever felt that way about before, now that's gone, I don't think I can go on…," Noah sobbed.
"Katie would want you to live on," Gwen said.
Noah rubbed his eyes, "Y…you're right," he said, "I was being foolish, sorry."
"Don't worry, we'll find our way out," Gwen smirked.
"Thanks Gwen," Noah said.
Gwen smiled, and they kept walking, eventually coming across a light at the end of the tunnel.
"Th…there's a light!" Gwen said.
"No Gwen, don't look at the light!" Noah joked.
"Not funny Noah," Gwen said, punching his arm.
"Sorry, I was just trying to lighten the mood a bit," Noah said, rolling his eyes.
Gwen and Noah finally got to the source of the light, Gwen cracked the door open and saw Lindsay sleeping on a bed.
"Is that Lindsay?" Gwen asked.
"I don't know who else it could be," Noah said.
Lindsay woke up slowly, "Wh…whose there?" Lindsay asked.
"It's us Lindsay," Gwen said, Lindsay looked at them confusedly, but then smiled, and ran up and hugged them both.
"Oh I'm so happy to see you guys!" Lindsay shouted.
"Lindsay, who did this to you?" Noah asked.
"I couldn't see his face, I just remember that he had messy hair, a tall black hat, and a wizard cape thingy," Lindsay said.
"A cloak?" Noah said strangely, then him and Gwen looked at each other, "It sounds very familiar, but I can't quite put my finger on where I remember that description from," Noah said.
"Me neither, but I do agree that it sounds familiar," Gwen said.
"Hey, is that a ladder?" Noah asked, looking at a tall ladder-like metal structure that lead up above ground.
"That certainly looks like a ladder," Gwen said.
"We should try and escape!" Lindsay suggested.
"Best idea I have ever heard come out of your mouth Lindsay," Noah grinned.
As they climbed the ladder, Duncan drove a truck with Trent, Tyler, and Harold in it, while DJ and Geoff stayed behind with Chef and Alejandro to guard the others.
"Do you guys hear that? It sounds like a car," Gwen said.
"Someone stick their hand through the grate," Noah said.
"What if they run over it?" Lindsay asked.
"Then we lose a hand, no big deal," Noah chuckled.
"I'll do it," Gwen said, sticking her hand through the grate, luckily, Trent saw it.
"STOP!" Trent yelled.
"What's goin on, you see something?" Duncan asked.
"Yeah, stop the car! Look at the sewer grate!" Trent said.
"He's right, someone's waving!" Tyler said.
"Then lets take a peek," Duncan said, stopping the car, so Trent and Tyler could see who it was.
Trent pried off the sewer grate, and to his surprise, it was Gwen, "GWEN?" he yelled, "You're okay?"
"Yeah, and we found Lindsay!" Gwen said.
"We?" Trent asked, as Noah also climbed out, pulling Lindsay up behind him.
"LINDS!" Tyler shouted.
"Tyler!" Lindsay said, running up and hugging Tyler.
"This is all very touching and all, but in case you forgot, Katie's still missing," Duncan said.
Noah and Gwen frowned, "Katie's gone…," Noah cried.
"Oh no…you don't mean…," Harold gasped.
"Yeah, they got her too, we found her down there cut in half and hanging from the ceiling," Noah sobbed.
"I'm so sorry Noah," Trent said.
"No, it isn't your fault," Noah said sadly, "It's mine."
"You can't blame yourself Noah," Harold said, as the sun began to rise.
"Finally, that night of horror is over," Trent smiled.
"We'd better get back and check on the others," Tyler suggested.
"Hop in guys, Duncan's got plenty o room," Duncan smirked.
Back at the hotel, Alejandro and Heather were talking, when it had stopped storming finally, and the sun began to rise, they smiled at each other.
"Thank goodness that night is over, I was so worried," Alejandro said.
"Aw, you were scared, how cute," Heather blushed.
"Oh Heather, you should know it takes more than THAT, to scare me!" Alejandro bragged.
"Of course," Heather grinned.
"Yo DJ, hit the lights boy," LeShawna said.
DJ walked to the light switch and flicked it on, but when he did, all the electricity in the room surged out, and the lights flicked out, however, one of the survivors was hit by a blast of electricity from the back, it was Heather, it killed her instantly.
"HEATHER!" Alejandro screamed.
