A/N: Can you believe how fast I updated? Neither can I! I wanted to get something out quickly because I felt bad that the last update took forever (though it was 10,000 words) but also because I have more performances coming up so the next update may not be for a couple weeks (at least...). Though this is a filler chapter because though I'm not a fan of writing them I'm still trying to get a feel for the characters and pairings so I'd rather screw this one up then a challenge chapter. Alright well I hope you enjoy!
Chris walked onto the dock of shame, "Last time on Total Drama Music, the new contestants arrived and they were certainly interesting. Romances bloomed and so did rivalries when the gloves came off and the gleeks came out in our singing competition the catch it's only glee songs. Our guest judges, Courtney, Trent and Izzy came back for the day to decide on winners and losers." And in true glee fashion he raised an 'L' to his forehead. "Who will win? And who will lose? Find out in the most thrilling episode yet!"
After a craptacular dinner of (moving) slop most of the contestants slowly made there way to there respective cabins throughout the evening, Zakk and Summer being the last to dribble in.
Girls Cabin
The girls sat on there beds quietly it was uncomfortably quiet in there cabin, generally this was averted because Jennifer and Rai both liked to talk but because they were in the medical tent along with Natalia.
Finally Brooke decided to break the tension, "So, who do you think will win the challenge and move onto the duets?"
"I think the better question is who do you think will lose?" Zoe said.
"Well personally I think our Top six girls will be Brooke, Angela and Emily." Leila said.
Angela smiled, "Honestly, well thanks but you did a great job, and I know I could never dance like that."
Summer quirked an eyebrow, "Really because you and Griffin were dancing pretty well, care to elaborate?"
"There's nothing to elaborate on, Griffin and I are friends plus he only did that to enhance his performance and to piss off Emily a bit." Angela stated.
"Gee thanks." Emily said voice dripping with sarcasm.
"Hey, it's not like it was my idea." Angela retorted.
"And yet you were fine to participate in it!" Emily argued.
"You know if you two sing a duet together it should totally be 'The Boy is mine.'" Daniella mused.
"Excuse me?" The Type-A and the Goth cried in unison causing simultaneous cries of denial.
"We're just friends I helped him with his performance that's it!"
"Honestly, as if, I can't stand him!"
"Whatever," Emily said. "It's not like any of you guys are exactly innocent."
"What do you mean?" Summer asked suspiciously."
"You know very well what I mean." Emily replied. "I'm referring to a guitar player by the name of Zakk."
Summer blushed, "Zakk and I are just friends."
Leila giggled, "I don't know how long you two will be just friends."
Summer smiled, "Well what about you?"
"What about me?" The Break-dancer replied.
"Oh please, you have Cole and Dash wrapped around your finger." Lois stated with a sneer.
Leila flushed, "I've barely spoken to either of them."
"What about Cole's performance?" Brooke asked.
"And I definitely saw you and Dash bonding over the song list the other day." Daniella said.
Leila flushed, "Dash and I are friends and Cole probably picked me for a dance partner because of my dancing background."
"Yes but Rai and I have both been dancing for years and yet he didn't ask either of us." Summer pointed out.
"Well Rai was in the medical talent with what I'm guessing is a sprained ankle and Zakk seems like the jealous type." Leila explained.
"He is not!" Summer exclaimed.
Confessional – Zummer: The couple who really should think before they speak.
Summer: Damn! I really need to think about what I say when talking about cute guys (she quickly realizes what she said and covers her mouth.) Damn it!
*End Confessional*
"Plus it's not like it would matter if he was because we are just friends." Summer continued recovering from her little slip up.
Lois rolled her eyes, "Whatever you say."
"Well who do you like?" Daniella asked.
"There's no one here even worth looking twice at." Lois declared.
Brooke looked sceptical, "Really no one? There are plenty of cute guys here, what about Gabe?"
"Way too tall." The ambitious girl replied.
"Alright, what about Dash?"
"Baldy really?"
"Christian?"
"He totally stole my thunder when he sang Gaga; I refuse to share the limelight."
"Leo?"
"Please, that ginger."
"Will?"
"Does he even talk?"
"Jennifer?"
"That's a girl."
"I'm not here to judge. Alright what about Duke?"
Lois' eyes widened, "Absolutely not, he's nothing but a pretty boy and that whole dancing move was cheap."
"You so like him!" Brooke declared.
"Shut it Blondie!"
Brooke raised her hands in defence, "Sorry, touched a nerve I guess."
"Well who do you like Blondie?" Lois questioned.
"No one."
"Please we all saw you fawning over Trent Squared the other day." Lois stated with an eye roll.
"Do you have nicknames for everyone?" Leila asked.
Lois shrugged, "Well I just thought the nicknames were fun, Dancing Queen."
Confessional – I want a nickname!
Lois: Please, that was such a lie, I'm just not bothering to learn the names, and I mean why bother with these idiots.
*End Confessional*
"You're kind of two-faced aren't you?" Brooke asked.
"What do you mean Blondie?"
"Well it's just you can go from getting angry at us to acting as if we've been friends forever." Brooke explained.
Confessional – I think I shall now go bye C-Dawg.
Lois: Watch it Blondie, you've just made yourself a powerful enemy.
*End Confessional*
"I guess I'm just stressed out with the challenge, I don't think I did a very good job." Lois lied, feigning sadness.
Brooke smiled sympathetically, "Oh I'm really sorry."
Lois smiled, "Oh it's alright, so I've got ask you and James, there's nothing going on there?" The villain obviously didn't care whether Brooke had a school girl crush or not but knew she needed this information for future plans.
"Well, he is kind of cute." Brooke gushed.
Confessional – Denial it's not just a river in Egypt.
Daniella: Finally somebody who will admit there feelings! After I hook up Griffin and Emily and collect my five bucks Gabe and I really need start some kind of matchmaking service.
*End Confessional*
Lois nodded urging the cheerleader to go on, but just as she was about to Zoe cut in, "Please stop all this dribble about boys, I'm trying to sleep here!"
Angela nodded, "It's ridiculous. Some of us actually want to sleep."
"I hate to agree with her," Emily said jerking her thumb toward Angela. "But some of us need sleep."
Leila yawned, "They do have a point guys, though it'll be hard to sleep when I'm so curious about Rai."
And as if on cue Jennifer and Natalia walked in. Jennifer spoke first, "She has a sprained ankle, she has to stay overnight at the medical tent but should be back tomorrow."
"But she'll be on crutches so just be prepared." Natalia cautioned.
Leila smiled, "Well that's good to hear, now I'm gonna head to bed."
A course of goodnights rang through the cabin as the lights were switched off.
Boys Cabin
Meanwhile the boys seemed to be having a similar conversation about the opposite gender.
"C'mon dude, if you had to choose one which would it be?" Zakk questioned.
Griffin narrowed his eyes, "I told you I don't know!"
"What if you had a gun to your head and the gunman said, 'Angela or Emily?' What would you do?" Cole asked.
Griffin raised an eyebrow, "Why would a gunman ask me this?"
"Well – I don't – Shut up! It's my game." Whined Cole.
Griffin shrugged, "Whatever man, who do you like?"
"Isn't obvious? Leila." Cole answered simply only to have Dash subtly glare at him from under his blankets.
"Nice man," Zakk said. "But I gotta say Summer."
Duke rolled his eyes, "No really? I'm sure we all had no idea."
"Oh shut it," Zakk said throwing a pillow at the rich boys head.
"But then again I can't blame you," Duke continued. "I mean that performance was unbelievably –"
"I said shut it." Zakk growled. "What about you? Who do you like?"
"Well there are certainly hotties this season but I don't think any of them are worse my time, though I can appreciate Angela's and Emily's asses and Leila's rack well let's just say-"
He was once again cut off by pillows hitting him in the face this time they belonged to Cole, Dash and Griffin.
Will groaned, "Will you all be quiet, some of us are trying to sleep."
Garrett nodded, "I have to agree it's 9:45 I need to be asleep by ten or I won't function properly."
James chuckled, "I kinda wanna see that."
Gabe nodded, "So Garrett have any of the ladies caught your eye?"
"If you must know I'm gay." Garrett stated.
Christian chuckled, "Any of the guys caught your eye?"
Garrett glared at him as the other guys chuckled, "Why must all straight men think gay men are in love with them."
Leo nodded, "Amen."
Gabe looked surprised, "Leo your gay? I always figured you'd pull a Harold and Leshawna and start spontaneously making out with someone like Lois."
Leo smiled, "She's not really my type."
Duke snorted, "I should imagine not, not only are you gay but its Lois, I mean honestly."
"What do you mean?" Leo asked.
"Well how do I put this carefully," Duke began. "She's way out of your league."
Christian looked sceptically, "That was putting it carefully?"
"Hey I don't try to be 'rude' it really is a skill." He stated putting air quotes around the word 'rude.' "Plus really she's out of all of your leagues. Well except maybe pretty boy over there." He jerked a thumb over to James who rolled his eyes in response.
"Gee thanks." James replied.
"Well what about you Jamie boy?" Cole asked. "Who do you like?"
"No one here's really my type." He replied.
"Oh c'mon," Cole egged on. "Everyone else has admitted there's."
"That's actually not true." James countered. "Griffin never chose, Will and Dash aren't participating in the conversation, Christian, Gabe and Duke aren't talking much and Leo and Garrett are gay so really only you and Zakk have actually said so. Also why do people insist on calling me some random nickname? Izzy called me Trent squared, Duke called me pretty boy and you called me Jamie boy. And another thing-"
Dude, just answer the question." Zakk said slowly.
"I told you no one here's really my type." James repeated.
"Bullshit." One of the boys coughed/said.
"Look James you're relatively attractive," Gabe stated. "There must be at least one girl who's caught your eye."
"Or guy." Griffin piped in jokingly. "So Gabe what qualifies you to decide whether James is attractive or not?"
"I don't know does it matter?" Gabe asked.
"Just curious, I wasn't sure if you were, you know..." Griffin trailed off.
"Gay? No I'm not but honestly I could care less if someone was. We can ask someone impartial if you like." Gabe said. "Hey Garrett."
The perfectionist was now half a sleep, "What?"
I'm surprised he didn't insult us," Christian murmured to no one in particular.
"I heard that." Garrett mumbled. "What do you dimwits want?"
"Is James attractive?" Zakk asked curious as to what they could get Garrett to admit.
"Absolutely." Garrett stated. "Certainly the best looking of the ten of you."
Confessional – Gary and Jamie kissing in a tree S-I-T-T – wait how does that thing go?
Garrett: For the record I can't be held accountable for what I say after ten o'clock and it was 10:01 so really it doesn't count.
*End confessional*
This caused many of the boys to snicker uncontrollably and make comments like 'looks like you got yourself a boyfriend eh James?' and 'Personally I think he could do better.' The latter prompted someone to ask,
"Which one?"
"Either."
James once again rolled his eyes, "Gee thanks."
Cole grinned, "No problem, though you have been avoiding the question. Who do you like?"
"I'll say it again; nobody here is really my type."
This prompted numerous 'c'mon's' and 'liar's'. Until finally James relented.
"Fine, I uh, like, um, Brooke. Yeah that's right Brooke."
Confessional – That's just gonna come back and bite you in the ass isn't it?
James: That's just gonna come back and bite me in the ass isn't it?
*End confessional*
This received a couple of nods of approval and a 'nice man.'
"Oh please shut up." Dash cut in.
"Though I wouldn't have put it so bluntly it's late, people need sleep. The first time it was fine, I'm sure we all enjoyed Garrett's little confession but now I want sleep." Will stated.
Christian stifled a yawn, "I guess I see his point."
There was a murmur of agreement as people climbed under the blankets.
The next morning
Will had woken early that morning, he usually woke up early he was always fond of the sunrise and was just used to waking up early. He walked down to the beach with a notebook in his hand; he figured he'd just write down whatever came to mind. He settled on a lawn chair near the dock of shame and sat down and just sat in peace for a moment when he saw someone hobbling toward him.
It was Rai, the cowgirl was now on crutches and had a brace on her left ankle and was making her way towards Will, "Can I sit there?" She asked pointing to the chair beside him. "These crutches are really hard to use in the sand."
Will nodded, "Yeah of course. Need a hand?"
Rai smiled gratefully but shook her head, "Its fine I have to get used to these things anyway." She took a seat next to Will.
"So what are you doing up?" The loner asked.
"Chef finally released me from the medical tent so I thought I'd watch the sunrise, I'm usually up at this time on the farm anyway. What about you?"
Will shrugged, "I'm usually up about now too. Sorry about the crutches by the way, I thought you were really good yesterday."
Rai grinned, "Thanks you were great too."
"I really wasn't I stumbled and my voice cracked everyone here is a lot better then I am."
"Yes but they've all had lessons, I mean you should hear Emily go on and on about how much better she is then the rest of us. I mean people say I talk a lot."
Will chuckled and just sat in a comfortable silence well the pair watched the sunrise.
Breakfast
"All I'm saying is if there's an entire musical devoted to Queen Music –"
"Hey," Zakk cut in. "That is an awesome musical."
Summer raised her hands in mock defence, "I'm not denying that I'm just saying why can't there be a musical devoted to Madonna music."
"Because no one would watch it?" Griffin offered jokingly.
"I would!" Summer said.
"Well what would it be about?" Daniella asked poking at her 'facon' with a fork.
"I dunno prayers and virginity." Summer made up on the spot.
"Probably would have more of a plot then Mamma Mia." Zakk stated. "Don't get me wrong ABBA's half-decent for disco music but that was a terrible movie."
"Why exactly have you seen that movie?" Angela asked.
Zakk shrugged, "Ex-girlfriend liked chick flicks and Amanda Seyfried is hot. I mean did you see Jennifer's Body?"
Angela shrugged, "I saw it but there was nothing special about it."
"I still maintain she's very hot."
Meanwhile in a Top Secret Judges Room (The Mess Hall)
Trent, Courtney and Izzy were all sitting staring at pictures of the contestants. The mess hall was now cleared out (other then those three) as the contestants were off doing random things.
"Well personally I think she was fantastic." Trent said pointing to someone's picture.
"I have to agree I think she's top six worthy, what do you say Izzy?" Courtney asked the redhead who nodded rapidly. "I'll take that as a yes." She then wrote something down on a lip of paper. "Alright we have two guys and two girls for the top six and two guys and two girls for the bottom six."
"So are we going even genders?" Trent asked.
"Maybe, it really depends, if we have three of each gender then great if not oh well." Courtney replied.
"Well Izzy really likes her." Izzy stated pointing to a random picture.
Courtney rolled her eyes, "You would, and personally I don't think she's quite good enough for the top six. I think we should choose her." She pointed at another picture.
"There is no way we're choosing her." Trent said bluntly. "What about him?"
Just as Izzy was about to answer Chris burst through the door.
"Damn, I though t we locked that." Courtney murmured to Trent who stifled a laugh.
"Hello ex-campers!" Chris greeted. "I have decided that I want to help judge."
"That wasn't part of the deal!" Izzy shouted.
"Yeah Courtney will sue!" Trent said.
"Whatever, not like she'd get in contact with them anyway." Chris stated. "Anyway as I was saying I will be helping to judge but because I'm so kind-hearted I'll give you a choice. You can either let me help with the bottom six or the top six. What do you think?"
The three teens pulled themselves into a huddle and murmured a few things before remerging a moment later.
"Alright Chris Courtney, Trent and Izzy have decided that..."
At the Amphitheatre
The contestants filed into there seats watching Chris, Courtney, Trent and Izzy argue on stage.
"It's not fair Chris! They didn't do anything wrong!" Trent shouted.
"Whatever guitar boy just announce the winners."
Trent sighed, "Whatever, alright guys before I announce the winners I wanna say it was a ridiculously tough decision. Also there are more boys then girls but that is in no way us trying to be sexist. Especially considering there's more girls on the panel then boys. Alright our first winner is... James!"
Courtney grinned, "Next up we have...Zakk!"
Izzy was jumping up and down wildly, "Natalia!"
"Garrett!" Trent declared.
"Angela!" Courtney announced.
"And last but not least... Griffin!" Izzy screeched in delight.
The winners all had looks of excitement on there faces (well except Garrett who just looked smug)
Confessional – And the Oscar goes too...
Garrett – It's not at all surprising I won my performance was much better then all of the others.
*End Confessional*
Natalia – I cannot believe I won, I mean I know I'm a singer but I mean I won!
*End Confessional*
Zakk – F*** yeah! R.E.M. will always trump that pop sh*t. Shame Summer didn't win though wouldn't have minded singing with her.
*End Confessional*
Angela – I won. I actually won, is anybody else really expecting Ashton Kutcher to pop out.
*End Confessional*
Griffin – Nice, safe another week plus you should have seen Emily's face she was screeching like a Banshee it was pretty awesome.
*End Confessionals*
"Well congrats guys!" Courtney said. "But now we have to do the bottom six which was even harder, now before I read the first name I'd like to remind the bottom six they could still win immunity in the duets part of the challenge. Alright the first person is...Leo."
"Next up is...Zoe."
"Then we have...Will."
"And then...Jennifer." Izzy said. "We'd like to tell people that the next two people were not chosen by us but by Chris."
Chris grinned, "That's write and the last two losers are Rai and Christian. Rai because she didn't even finish the song and Christian because I just don't like that song."
Confessional – And the Razzie goes too...
Zoe – This is so unfair, I'm not a sore loser but I didn't even do anything wrong.
*End Confessional*
Will – That douche! I mean Rai and Christian did nothing wrong, especially Rai I mean it's not her fault.
*End Confessional*
Rai – Well personal I think it's unfair because of the reasons he chose, if it was just because I didn't do a good job but do it's because of these stupid crutches.
*End Confessional*
Christian – What a jackass.
*End Confessional*
"Alright," Izzy began. "Will the bottom six stand on Izzy's left and the top six on Izzy's right. We still need to choose duet partners."
The contestants filed onto stage and Courtney stood to the right with a bucket in hand well Trent stood to the left a bucket also in hand.
Trent grinned sympathetically at the bottom six alright guys I'm gonna grab two names and those will be the partners. First up is... Leo and Zoe!
"Next up... Jennifer and Christian!
"And finally...Will and Rai!"
Courtney smiled, "Alright now for top six first up... Natalia and Zakk!
"Second pairing is...Griffin and Angela!
"This leaves...Garrett and James!"
"Trent Squared!" Izzy cried causing James to face palm.
Chris walked center stage, "Well there you have it, when we return find out how the duet partners work together! And then hear them sing!"
A/N: This one was considerably shorter then the last one, so I do hope no one expects really long chapters because I'm not good at that. I'm not a huge fan of this chapter I wrote it in about 2 days so it's a little rushed which is why the flow isn't great. Overall I'm pretty happy with it though for a filler at least and I really hope you all liked it. Once again I'm sorry if I can't update for a while it's a combination of my dad and his schoolwork, my own schoolwork and my inability to write a performance. Alright here are you questions
What did you think?
Is your character in character? (This is something I really worry about)
Do you have any duet ideas? (It is still glee)
Or challenge ideas?
Do you mind filler chapters?
P.S. I picked the bottom and top six at random so sorry to the creators of the bottom six it's nothing personal to your characters.
