"Last time on Total Drama Kingdom, our six sleeping beauties were disrupted from their beauty sleep with a special underground maze challenge! Deja attempted to put the others at a serious disadvantage and Brant managed to finish the maze the fastest! Lyell stuck out for Brianna by helping her with her claustrophobia and Colin saved Olivia from the zombie apocalypse! In the end, Olivia finished last and Colin volunteered to take the Fling with her, coming to show that their love is too strong! Alright, enough already with the love! And trust me, there isn't going to be any love in this episode! We're talking suspense! We're talking tension! We're talking total drama in another thrilling episode of Total...Drama...Kingdom!"

*cut to Chef's kitchen*

Chef was cooking up a storm in his kitchen. He was stirring what looked like a green stew that was filled with grimy, disgusting slime! Michael then came up to the stew and added some of the finest medieval dirt with earthworms and beetles galore! Soonchan then added some of his black hair to the stew while grinning evilly. Chris then cut up some red blood berries and poured some poison ivy juice into the stew. Chef then tossed in some raw, expired meat into the pot and stirred the stew thoroughly.

"Oooo man...this is so sick!" Chris snickered. "But I love it!"

"Blaineley's gonna fall for me after this!" Soonchan said dreamily.

Chef then added some red-orange food coloring to make the stew look like a simple pot of tomato soup. He then put some of the stew in a big foam cup and added some spice to make the stew taste really good when really, it wasn't! He closed the cup with a lid and then wrote in black marker 'The Finest Tomato Soup To Blaineley'. He took the soup and set it outside on a nearby hill before running back in the tent quickly.

"This is gonna be too good!" Chef said, laughing out loud.

"That is sweet payback for making my hair blue!" Macy proudly said, stroking her golden locks.

"And for almost infecting me with head lice!" Michael added.

Outside, Blaineley was calmly walking up the hill, ready to pull another prank on Chris and the gang. Suddenly, her stomach rumbled loudly.

"Man, all this pranking is making me hungry!" Blaineley said to herself.

She then noticed the foam cup that was standing right on top of the hill. Blaineley climbed up the hill to see what was inside the cup. She read the writing on the cup and then opened it. She widened her eyes and licked her lips at the sight of the 'soup'. She let the pleasant scent enter her nose as she smelled the stew.

"Ahhh...I love homemade tomato soup!" Blaineley said as she gulped down the soup. A few seconds later, her stomach grumbled loudly and she felt a sharp tingle that sent her covering her mouth and sprinting to the lake!

*cut to McClean Spa Manor*

"All right! Boysenberry pie!" Brant cheered as the butler handed him a big piece of pie on a silver platter. He picked up his fork and proceeded to munch the pie down.

*static*

*in confessional* Brant: I can't believe I made it to the final 4! I never expected to make it this far! Now that I'm this far, it's time to put my brains to the test, start taking risks, and not let anything get past me! This game is so on!

*static*

*back to spa*

"Good morning, Brant!" Brianna happily said as she entered the dining hall and sat down in the seat across from his.

"Good morning to you too, Brianna!" Brant said back as he was eating his pie.

"Can you believe that we've made it this far?" Brianna asked in a surprised tone.

"I honestly did not expect to make it this far, especially with all the crap that Chris put us through for the past couple of weeks!" Brant responded.

"Tell me about it...are you nervous about the next challenge?" Brianna asked.

"Sort of. Now that we're this far into the game, I wouldn't be surprised if this challenge is much more torturous than the other ones!" he said. "But, I'm just going to use my brains and strategy to get out of the challenge alive. I hope it'll pay off though..." he continued.

"I think you'll be fine though. You're smart and I think you're capable of surviving!" Brianna said as she took a bite of her pie. "Wow...this pie is delicious!"

"I know right?! I'm gonna go get seconds!" Brant excitedly said as he ran into the kitchen.

"Hey butler!" Brianna called to the butler. The butler came over to see what she wanted. "Can I have about ten or fifteen of these pies to go? They're so delicious!" The butler nodded and went into the kitchen to get more pie. She took out a large bag and opened it up, feeling excited.

*static*

*in confessional* Brianna: Whoa...I'm in the final four...I'm in the final four baby! I'm pretty psyched and pretty nervous at the same time! But I'm looking forward to winning the mil, getting the hell out of this island, and reuniting with all my girls back home! I just have to get it together and win this! But I hope I can survive the madness Chris has in store for us this time! Wow...my feelings about being here right now are pretty mixed...

*static*

*cut to Creepy Chriskaban Dungeon*

As usual, Deja was taking notes on a piece of paper furiously while tapping her pencil on the dungeon floor excessively. She didn't even pay attention to Lyell, who was snoring very loudly in the cell across from her.

*static*

*in confessional* Deja: I knew I was going to make it this far! Because I'm THAT good. I got Daniel out along with those crazy lovebirds! Plus I've got a lot of strategy under my belt! I don't care about backing out now! All I care about is coming in first and winning that money! I hope to use that money to fund for my own reality show: The World According to Deja! And possibly a new car, a movie about me, and a ton of other possibilities! And I think I have a strong chance at the million too! I'll take down Brant this round and Lyell and Brianna, haha! Piece of cake! It's all in the bag!

*static*

*back to Creepy Chriskaban Dungeon*

Soonchan came into Deja's cell and gave her a big bowl of grimy and jello-like slime for breakfast. He quietly slipped in a bowl in Lyell's cell while he was sound asleep.

"Ugh! What the hell is this crap?!" Deja complained as she stabbed at the slime with her spoon.

"Leftovers! We used it for a prank this morning and we thought we would serve it for breakfast since it came out so nicely!" Soonchan said as he winked and walked out of the dungeon.

Deja then gave an evil grin, grabbed a big slab of slime with her hand, and threw it right into Lyell's cell, hitting his face. Lyell opened his eyes and got up, furrowing his brow at Deja and shaking his head.

"Hey girl, that was NOT cool..." Lyell said.

"Well, you'd better get used to it! This is the final four and I'm doing all that it takes to win this game! At this point, I ain't nice! That's something you're just gonna have to deal with!" Deja said, laughing under her breath.

*static*

*in confessional* Lyell: I'm definitely not liking Deja's attitude. So what if the competition is getting intense at this point? I'm still chill and I'm taking it easy like Sunday morning! Sooo, how do I feel about being in the final four? Well, it's pretty exciting. I'm kinda bummed that the game is almost over. I've met some awesome people in my stay here, especially Daniel, Brianna, Brant, and those two crazy lovebirds! Haha, everyone else is cool. But Deja is kinda freaking me out now. I have a strange feeling that she's gonna do something to sabotage our chances of winning the mil! But I just gotta get it together and win this! For my fam, my friends, and Erin!

*cut to battlefield*

Chris and Chef were located in the battlefield. Chef was wearing a green cloak, a white beard, a green hat, and brown shoes. Chris was once again in his General Zod costume, wearing a black uniform with a black cloak with a fake mustache and beard.

"You know...you remind me of this one annoying kid from one of the previous Total Drama auditions..." Chris said, thinking for a moment.

Chef replied, "And you remind me of a wannabe super villain!"

"Hey...that wasn't cool...but nice comeback!" Chris replied, snickering a bit. "But actually, you look like someone from a previous audition..but I can't remember what his name was..."

"Hmm...you might actually be right!" Chef said, realizing why he looked so familiar to Chris.

"Ehh, enough stalling! Let's start the next challenge! And we've got one big surprise for our contestants!" Chris laughed as Soonchan and the interns, along with Heather and Alejandro, dragged a very heavy compartment to the battlefield. Once they brought it over, they all fell over, sweating and panting.

"ATTENTION FINAL FOUR! MEET ME AT THE BATTLEFIELD FOR A VERY SPECIAL CHALLENGE!" Chris loudly spoke over the megaphone.

*a few moments later*

The finalists all gathered around Chris, waiting for him to introduce the next challenge.

"Good morning contestants! Congrats on making it to the final four! And today, we have a perfectly fitting challenge at this point in the game! It's going to be SO torturous and SO painful that you guys may die! Hehehehe..." Chris cheerfully said.

"Soooo, what's the challenge?" Brant asked.

"Yeah...let's get this over with!" Deja said, impatiently.

"Whatever...for today's challenge, you guys will be battling something super big and super powerful! You guys are gonna wish that you haven't signed up for Total Drama Kingdom in the first place!" Chris said.

"Well...what is it?!" Deja snapped.

"Oh Chef!" Chris called to Chef. Chef then took off the black cloak and revealed something very gigantic. This gigantic figure was a very dark figure with strong, black metal armor, a spiky helmet, and giant arms and legs. It held a giant sword in its hand and it had very sharp claws. It raised its head up and roared at all of the contestants loudly. All of the contestants gasped at its appearance.

*static*

*in confessional* Brant: Sauron?!

*static*

*in confessional* Deja: Okay...now I really have to get it together!

*static*

*in confessional* Brianna: This is going to be much, MUCH harder than I thought!

*static*

*in confessional* Lyell: Okay...bros and bras, if you're watching this, if I don't make it out alive after this challenge, I just want to say that it's been a pleasure knowing all of you and peace out! And Erin, I love you babe!

*static*

*back to battlefield*

"And you guys are going to be fighting it with your bare hands!" Chris announced.

*static*

*in confessional* Brianna: You have GOT to be kidding me!

*static*

*back to battlefield*

"WHAT?! And how are we supposed to do that?!" Deja snapped.

"Exactly! There is no way in hell that we are fighting this thing with our hands alone!" Brianna added.

Chris glared and said, "Can't you people take a joke? Anyways, you guys are going to select your weapons for this challenge! And Heather and Alejandro will do the honors and hand out the weapons to all of you!"

Heather and Alejandro then came over to the battlefield and each carried two weapons and set them down on the arena. The contestants came over and selected the weapons that they were going to use. Lyell was about to take two double-bladed axes when Deja snagged them right before his eyes.

"Nuh-uh! These are mine!" Deja snapped as she took the weapons and walked away.

"Well, the weapon choice suits you well, senorita! These axes were used by the most devious warriors back in medieval times! Anyone who used them possessed a dark side and used it for their own will!" Alejandro told Deja.

"Well, I guess I'll go with this one then" Lyell said to himself as he picked up a tall sword.

"Ah, so you are the brave goody-goody who would like to use a weapon for the good of your kingdom! You have an enchanted sword that was made by elves! Used by the bravest knights!" Heather told Lyell.

Brant picked up a big war hammer. "You must be the tough and strong warrior! The roughest and toughest and hunkiest used this weapon! Good choice!" Heather said, teasing slightly.

All that was left was the medieval flail, a big spiky ball attached to a block of wood with a chain. Brianna picked it up and took a look at it. "You are very flexible in picking that weapon! It suits you very well, chica! Use it to your advantage!" Alejandro encouraged.

"Now that we all have our weapons, here's the main premise of today's challenge! This will be a 20 minute challenge! Your goal is to be the last one standing in the end! For this first round, the last two warriors standing will make it to the next round! The first two who are defeated by Sauron will not be able to participate in the second round, but will watch as the finalists battle it out in the last round! And I'll decide what to do with you guys later! It all depends on whatever I feel like doing, the show's budget, the time, and all that jazz! But I digress! Anyways, use the weapons to your advantage and careful not to die! Any who, let's get this blood bath started!" Chris excitedly explained.

"Before we get started, we have a special guest who is very happy to join us and give you all helpful advice on facing the dreaded Sauron! It's...Gandalf!" Gandalf walked over with his trademark gray cloak, gray wizard hat, brown shoes, and his powerful staff. Brant had a look of surprise upon seeing him.

*static*

*in confessional* Brant: How on earth did Chris pay these guys to cameo on this show? That's pretty incredible...

*static*

*back to battlefield*

"So, Gandalf, do you have any advice for our competitors for this exciting challenge?" Chris asked Gandalf.

"I'll tell each of them a little secret in their ears. This is based on their weapons and personalities. So, each competitor will have their secret to success" Gandalf responded.

"Okay then. But make it quick. It's a half-hour show after all!" Chris said, tapping his watch.

"Will do!" Gandalf replied as he came up to Lyell to whisper his secret. "Don't lose hope, noble knight. You are braver than you think. You just have to believe it." Lyell nodded firmly.

*static*

*in confessional* Lyell: Wow, Gandalf sure has a lot of words of wisdom to give out! Props for him!

*static*

*back to battlefield*

Gandalf then came up to Brianna and whispered, "Don't just stick with a single move. Multiple moves will do the trick. Be flexible with your strategies." Brianna nodded her head and said, "Yes sir."

Gandalf then walked over to Brant and whispered, "You are a strong boy, but don't just use your strength. Use your brains. I know you have lots of them!" Brant grinned and nodded his head.

Gandalf then came to Deja and whispered, "You seem to be the very devious one. All I can say is don't let your ego get the best of you, my friend!" Deja opened her mouth widely as though she were offended by his comments.

*static*

*in confessional* Deja: Ego?! What kind of mumbo jumbo is that old man talking about?!

*static*

*back to battlefield*

"Now that we've gotten that out of the way, let's begin the challenge!" Chris announced. "Each of you will stand in one of the four corners of the arena! And once I blow the air horn, the fight will begin! And I'm sure that Sauron is ready to begin this fight! Right, Sauron?"

Sauron let out a mighty roar that made Alejandro scream and sent Heather flying right into Alejandro's arms. "Let's get outta here!" Alejandro shouted, urgently. Heather nodded and the two of them ran over to the shores of Malchoir to find a boat to take them home.

"What babies..." Chris laughed as he watched the two of them run away. The contestants then cautiously went to separate corners of the arena and put on their silver armor. Once the contestants were prepared, Chris looked at his watch and Sauron and said, "And...begin!" He then blew the air horn. The fight was now to commence! Sauron then let out the loudest roar known to man that paralyzed all of the contestants. They all widened their eyes and mouths and became still as statues.

"Ooooo...this is not looking like a good start for our contestants! Who will survive? The triumphant overlord or our 'not so' brave knights? Find out when we return to Total...Drama...Kingdom!"

*break*

*back to battlefield*

Sauron let out a mighty roar that paralyzed all of the contestants. All of their eyes were widened, their teeth were gritted tightly, and all of their muscles were still as though they have been electrocuted.

"Hello?! Guys?! It's a twenty minute challenge! Hurry up and do something before I have to send you all on the Fling! Now GO!" Chris yelled at the top of his lungs as he blew the air horn one more time. Immediately, the four warriors snapped out of their paralysis and realized what was going on.

*static*

*in confessional* Brianna: Holy crap! That was f***ing scary! C'mon Bri, get it together! Get it together!

*static*

*back to battlefield*

"This is so on!" Brant yelled bravely as he waved his war hammer around and ran over to Sauron. Sauron then threw a punch on him that knocked him down on the floor, but he managed to get up quickly and remain uninjured.

"Remember what Gandalf said..." Brant thought to himself.

Deja then yelled fiercely and ran up to Sauron to attack him. She waved her double-bladed axes around and began slashing at Sauron. Sauron let out a mighty roar and attempted to attack her. He swung his sword at her several times, but missed every time.

"Now's my chance!" Brant said to himself as he whacked Sauron with his war hammer while he was attacking Deja. This caused Sauron to turn to Brant and attempt to slash at him with his sword. Brant thought quickly and moved out of the way just in time.

"We got this!" Lyell encouraged Brianna as they both watched Brant and Deja attack Sauron.

"Yes we do! Let's do this!" Brianna responded as they both ran over towards Sauron. "Take this! And that!" Brianna yelled at the beast as she swung her medieval flail at it on all sides.

"Woo hoo!" Lyell shouted as he jumped in the air and did a powerhouse kick on Sauron. Before he landed on the ground, he hit Sauron with his sword, but got knocked down in the process. Luckily, he was uninjured and he managed to get up on his feet again before Sauron came in for another attack.

"You guys have 15 more minutes!" Chris announced.

Deja cockily swung her axes all over the place, hitting Sauron in the legs, chest, and arms many times to the point that his armor had many dents. She snickered evilly as she was doing this. Gandalf, who was watching nearby, shook his head and said to himself, "I can feel her ego getting the best of her already. When will she ever learn?"

"Can this get any easier?" Deja shouted out loud.

All of a sudden, Sauron turned to Deja and growled fiercely and loudly. He then took a deep breath in and as he was exhaling, he swung his fist towards Deja and sent her flying off of the arena in the process. Luckily, a king-sized mattress managed to break her fall.

*static*

*in confessional* Brant: Good riddance to her! That's what happens when you get too cocky and too desperate to win the game!

*static*

*back to battlefield*

"Looks like Deja is out and will not be competing for the duration of the round! You guys have 10 more minutes!" Chris announced.

"UGH! This is so unfair!" Deja complained.

"Actually, it is fair. You did not take my advice. My advice could have helped you greatly. But instead, you chose to take the fall. You have to pay for the mistake you have made, my friend" Gandalf said, coming up to Deja.

"Mistake?! I'll show you one!" Deja yelled as he ran up to Gandalf with her arms raised up. Before she could get her hands on Gandalf, he blocked her with a force field, knocking her out once again.

"Mama...are you making your delicious meatloaf tonight?" Deja deliriously asked as she saw stars fly around her.

"That should take care of her!" Gandalf said to himself as he turned back to the fight.

"C'mon! Let's see more action here!" Chris complained as he was eating his popcorn. "There's no point in eating this popcorn if I can't see any action here! Let's go!"

In the meantime, Sauron was lunging at Lyell and Brianna while Brant was attacking him from behind while he was occupied. He then decided to change things up and go up front to attack him. He knew that he had to use different moves and his brains to defeat Sauron. With all his strength, he swung the war hammer at Sauron. He then noticed the ring that was on Sauron's finger. He had already read the book and seen the movie. So, he knew that it was one of the only ways to defeat him. As he jumped up in the air to knock the ring off his finger, Sauron threw a powerful kick at him that knocked him out of the arena. He fell on the mattress bed, unconscious. Gandalf and the interns rushed to his aid and took him to the infirmary tent for him to rest up. On the way to the infirmary, Gandalf told Brant, "You have taken my advice well. But even though you did not come up on top, you have done well, my friend. You are truly a strong and intelligent warrior!"

"Ouch! Looks like Brant won't be competing in the final round! Congratulations Lyell and Brianna! You guys have both survived and have made the final round! Now, your main goal is to take down Sauron in exactly 10 minutes! Make it snappy though!" Chris announced.

Lyell and Brianna high-fived each other. "Awesome job, bro!" Brianna told Lyell.

"You too, dudette!" Lyell shot back, grinning.

"I just came up with a sweet move that we can do to defeat this guy!" Brianna said. She then whispered her game plan to Lyell. Lyell nodded and said, "You are really good at coming up with some of the greatest plans I've ever heard of! Let's end this battle strong!"

Lyell and Brianna both grinned at each other before coming up with the ultimate move. Brianna jumped really high in the air and did a powerful flip while flying towards Sauron's left side and swinging her medieval flail in the air. At the same time, Lyell jumped up in the air and flew straight towards Sauron's right side while getting ready to slash at Sauron with his enchanted sword. Lyell yelled out, "COWABUNGA!" as he cut Sauron's arm off with his sword and landed safely on the ground. Brianna also managed to knock Sauron across the head with her flail, causing him to fall on the arena floor HARD. Lyell looked at the arm that he had cut off and noticed the ring on Sauron's finger. A few moments later, Sauron's body shone brightly and he blew up before everyone's eyes.

"That was truly an epic challenge! Looks like Lyell wins the challenge for successfully defeating Sauron!" Chris announced. Lyell cheered and Brianna gave him a big hug to congratulate him on his victory.

"Great job, Lyell! I'm so proud of you!" Brianna squealed.

"You were awesome too! You've really got some awesome moves! You got them moves like Jagger!" Lyell replied, grinning. Brianna laughed hard at his joke.

"For your reward, you get to go to the McClean Spa Manor with Brianna tonight! Because both of you are confirmed finalists for this season!" Chris continued. Lyell and Brianna cheered and hugged each other once again.

"Hey! What about us?!" Deja angrily asked as she and Brant came back from the infirmary.

"Hmm...let me think..." Chris thought. "Oh, I think I got it!"

*cut to Fling of Shame*

"Oh come on! Seriously?!" Deja angrily said as she sat aboard the Fling of Shame.

"Sorry Deja! It's nothing personal against you! It's just the show's budget. And also, you were kind of annoying..." Chris 'honestly' said.

"Prepare to hear from my lawyers!" Deja yelled as Chef pushed the Fling! button and she was sent flying to an unknown location.

"Alright, Brant, it's your turn!" Chris said. Brant hung his head in shame and walked over to the fling. Before he went, Lyell patted his back and said, "Hey, you were a great competitor! You should be happy of everything you've done!"

"Yeah! You're a strong and smart guy and you're achieve so much in life! Don't let this silly game let you down! You've got much more ahead of you!" Brianna added, giving him a hug.

"Thanks guys! I'm really happy I got to know all of you! But it's time to leave this game with my head held high!" Brant said as he sat aboard the Fling.

"Time to go!" Chris said as Chef pushed the Fling! button and Brant was sent flying in the air.

"And there you have it, guys! Our final two for this season! Who will come up on top and who will come down in Rock Bottom? Find out in the epic season finale of Total...Drama...Kingdom!"

Thanks for reading! Be excited for the finale, because this will be an epic one! R&R your thoughts and predictions on who will win this season!
