Last time on Total Drama Campgrounds. Twenty-two teens arrived at Camp McClean read to battle it out! They were split into two teams: The Fighting Lion's and the Daring Dolphin's. It came down to a close challenge between two of the toughest contestants, Iron-Willed Ivan, and Insane Nut-Job Elysa. In the end though, it was Elysa's clever sneakiness that bested Ivan's way of the warrior. At the elimination ceremony, it was the big girl Danni, who had annoyed her entire team that took the walk of shame, and ended up leaving on the boat of losers, on the ocean…, this time, our twenty-one remaining campers have an insane task prepared for them, will they survive? Or will they all fall victim to it's beautiful design? Find out this time on total…Drama…CAMPGROUNDS!

_Theme Song_

Dear Mom and Dad I'm doin' fine…

Chris stands at the entrance to the camp, smiling, until the camera flies by and knocks him over.

You guy's are on my mind…

The camera lifts up and over the cliff, and plunges into the ocean.

You asked me what I wanted to be…

Norm is surfing a wave, and it crashes into the dock that overlooks the ocean.

And now I think the answer is plain to see…

Ronny is laughing at Norm, but Wanda looks at him in disapproval.

I wanna be famous…

Ivan slashes at several small wooden posts with his sword really quickly, and bows at the camera as they all fall over.

I wanna live close to the sun…

Phillipi is sitting by one of the picnic table and it explodes, as he runs away, Elysa pops her out of the ground and she is laughing.

Well pack your bags cause I've already won…

Bruno is lifting one of the picnic tables up with one hand, as Danni, Lola, and Taylor sit on top of it and admire him, he rips his shirt off and winks at them.

Everything to prove, nothing in my way…

Candy dances out of the confessional booth.

I'll get there one day-ay!...

Chef is laughing as a huge pot boils in the kitchen, with Omar and Connor dangling over it, Omar is actually scared, but Connor remains calm.

Cause I wanna be famous…

Kirsten glares at Chef in anger, as Haley simply flips through her book in the background.

Na-Nananana-Nananana-Na-Na-Nana-Nana-Na

Kimmy runs past Donovan, and as she does, she runs past a mud puddle, causing him to get angry and chase her, but as he does, a giant squid rises out of the lake and scares them away, as Mona laughs at them both from the sidelines.

I wanna be, I wanna be, I wanna be famous!...

Quill skateboards up the cliff, and as he gets to the top, he flies off.

I wanna be, I wanna be, I wanna be famous!...

Quill and his skateboard fall down, as the time changes from day to night, where Todd sits down next to Azalea who is meditating near the bonfire pit.

Whistling…

Max pops up behind Todd and Azalea, and points at the camera, as it zooms out, showing all twenty-two contestants sitting around the bonfire, and Chris and Chef, as the sign that says Total Drama Campgrounds lights up, and the camera goes down.

_End of Theme Song_

It was still early morning. The birds were chirping, the sun was just rising above the ocean, and the twenty-one campers were still off in dreamland. That's when it happened, Chris road by on his ATV, not only did the loud sound of the vehicle tear through the calm, peaceful air, but of course Chris's booming voice through his megaphone did. "EVERYONE! THIS IS YOUR SIX AM WAKE UP CALL! WE'VE GOT A LOT TO DO! SO PLEASE GET YOURSELVES OUT OF BED AND MEET ME IN THE MAIN LODGE!" Chris yelled, as the ATV drove off into the distance.

Eventually, the twenty-one campers did manage to pull themselves out of their beds, and walked to the Main Lodge, the only one that was wide awake was Ivan.

"I wonder what today's challenge will entail," Ivan said, his voice had no hint of tiredness in it at all.

"How are you wide awake…?" Bruno asked, as he let out an obnoxious yawn.

"A warrior's training never ends," Ivan explained, "waking up early is only a small price to pay to become as strong as I can be."

"If becoming a warrior means I have to wake up before noon…, then I'd rather just play as one in a video game," Omar commented with a rub of his eyes, he then put his glasses back on, and screamed when he saw what was on his plate for breakfast, "What is this stuff?!" he shouted.

"That's Chef Hatchet's mystery stir fry with extra zest," Chef replied with a huge toothy grin on his face, as he scooped some up and slopped it onto Omar's tray. Omar looked at questioningly, before gulping, he looked back up at Chef, who gave him an angry glare, Omar froze, and simply nodded, before walking away with his food.

"I am NOT eating this stuff," Lola shrieked.

"Why not? You could use a little…, whatever this is on your bones," Norm replied.

"This is not even FOOD! Food is a salad, crème brulee, or tofu! Not…this!" Lola yelled, Chef slammed his signature meat cleaver down on the counter, Lola screamed at this.

"Darling, you look like you need this food, but you don't have to take it, I mean, if you gained anymore weight, you probably wouldn't fit in that tacky outfit you have on," Taylor said with a laugh, Lola shook her fist, but Chef immediately turned her attention back to him.

"Girl, you wanna complain about my food again, you can gethcur butt outta dis' camp right now," Chef said sternly, as he tapped his hand on the handle of his cleaver, Lola simply looked wide-eyed at the man's giant hand on the huge knife and gulped.

The twenty-one campers all sat in their respective teams, and ate their 'food', Chris was still nowhere to be seen.

"Any idea where jolly old sir McClean is?" Connor asked unemotionally, as he dropped his spoon onto his tray and pushed it away slowly.

"Probably cooking up some kind of torture for us," Donovan replied, "Hopefully one that doesn't involve working out or dirt." Norm slammed his fists down on the table at that comment.

"You need to learn some discipline my friend," Norm snapped, "I have zero respect for people who don't provide themselves a healthy lifestyle!"

"FYI, just because you work out, doesn't mean that you're 'healthy' captain fitness," Connor said, with a crossing of his arms.

"But it does make you sexy," Bruno said as he flexed from the other half of the Main Lodge.

Connor and Donovan both looked at each other and raised their eyebrows, meanwhile, Chris showed up finally.

"Hello campers," Chris said with a snicker.

"That laugh means this challenge is going to be hard…, doesn't it?" Wanda asked.

"Very nice observation Mrs. President," Chris chuckled sarcastically, Wanda scoffed and folded her arms, as Chris continued talking. "Today's challenge is a water challenge, meaning you'll all have to change into your bathing suits."

"Yes, rockin' the speedo!" Bruno cheered, as Connor made a gagging sound, and Donovan laughed.

"Meet me by the lake shore in twenty minutes for the start of the challenge," Chris stated, as he once again disappeared out of the main lodge. The campers all groggily got up, and trotted out of the main lodge, and returned to their cabins to change.

"I finally get to model my bikini," Lola said, a smile on her face.

"Yippee for you…," Kirsten mumbled, as she stuck her finger up her nose.

"That's gross…," Lola replied, as she started walking a bit behind Kirsten.

"Suck on it…," Kirsten shrugged, as she rolled her eyes, and walked into the cabin, slamming the door in Lola's face.

"Oho, you made her maaad," Wanda laughed, as Lola growled at her.

"Can we just get this over with, I don't wanna feel like a diva and take to long to change," Mona commented.

"You mean you don't take thirty minutes to change into your bikini?!" Lola gasped.

"Are you saying that you do?" Mona asked.

"Uhhh, duh, you have to look perfect!" Lola snapped, as she walked into the cabin next.

"She's hopeless…," Candy commented from behind, facepalming.

"Tell me about it…," Mona said, as she rolled her eyes.

Meanwhile, the guys of the Lion's were also changing.

"Ivan, do you have swim trunks?" Bruno asked, as he patted his speedo, Omar and Phillipi looked at each other and gagged.

"I simply wear my gi, warrior's must be prepared for any challenge, at any moment in time," Ivan replied, as he walked out the door, "I will meet you all on today's battlefield."

"What a weirdo…," Bruno mumbled, "Wakes up at the crack of dawn, wears his clothes in the water…"

"…Could probably kick your butt seven ways to Sunday," Phillipi finished, as Bruno shot him a death glare.

"I'm carrying this team princess! I'll be darned if I let mister samurai outshine ME!" Bruno growled, as he walked out, slamming the cabin door behind him.

"Jeez, everyone on our team is so…arrogant," Phillipi commented.

"We should all just try and be friends!" Ronny stated, with a big smile on his face, Phillipi looked at him, and rolled his eyes.

"Or overly energetic…," Phillipi stated, as he too, walked out of the cabin.

"Sorry?" Ronny replied sadly, as Omar patted his back.

"It's okay Ronny, when we win today, everybody will be in good spirits!" Omar cheered.

"Good call Omar!" Ronny said, as he fist pounded the otaku, as the two of them left for the challenge area as well, at this time, the Dolphin's were also heading over.

"Psh, we easily won yesterday, and today's a water challenge, swimming is one of the sports that I excel at!" Norm stated, "I also excel at baseball, basketball, football, rugby, soccer, lacrosse, and cricket!"

"And talking a lot, don't forget talking a lot…," Connor remarked, as Norm glared at him.

"I won three gold medals in the boys swimming division at my pool," Kimmy said, "any swimming challenge that Chris can throw at us, I can handle better than any guy here."

"Totally rad brah! But I'm hopin' for a surfing challenge, nothin' like catchin' some waves before a big bonfire!" Quill said, putting up the traditional surfer sign with his left hand.

"Maybe we'll get to go find Atlantis!" Elysa shrieked.

"We are going to the lake…, not the ocean you two," Taylor explained, with a roll of her eyes.

"Then maybe we'll see the Loch Ness monster!" Elysa shouted even louder, as a few people backed away.

"Oh…, the lake looks so dirty, I hope we don't actually have to go in it…," Donovan whined.

"It wouldn't matter even if we had to, if it's swimming, you'd get tired after two strokes," Norm said as he shook his head.

"Hey, come on, give him some credit man, he tries his best!" Todd said.

"Which wasn't good enough, he was out first in the paintball challenge!" Norm replied, "I will not tolerate weakness on my team!"

"You have a very depressing life…," Azalea commented.

"What did you just say?" Norm asked.

"I said your life is very depressing," Azalea said again, as Norm looked around at the other contestants, as they had all started staring at him.

"I'll just keep moving…," Norm said as he blushed.

(confessional)

Norm: How does she know that?!

Azalea: His chakra's are so unaligned, he makes it obvious.

Max: I must figure out these power's that Azalea has…, they are very, intruiging!

(end)

"Everyone quiet…, we're here," Haley said, as the team came to a mat with their symbol on it, the Lion's were on another mat, a little further down, as Chris stood on a podium with a megaphone.

"Campers, welcome to your second challenge of the season," Chris stated, as the lake was shown in full view behind him.
