THE NEXT MORNING…
Chris tiptoes onto the sky deck and weaves his way round the sleeping contestants. He grins at the camera tossing his hair. "Aw, they look so peaceful!" He pulls a mega horn out of his pocket. "Too bad we have to wake 'em up!" Chris presses the horn and a screeching sound echoes. The contestants immediately spring up, hands over there ears. They glare at Chris when they realize it's only him. "What the hell!" Israela shouts angrily, still in her cloud print pajamas. "What's your problem Chris!" Maria yells. Chris rolls his eyes. "Just trying to wake you all up. After all, don't you wanna know your roommates and teams?" He says waving a sheet of paper in the air. The contestants sigh and gather round him. "Listen up because I am only going to say this once. First of all teams. This season there will be team names which I came up with. First of all the Killer Whales. If your name is called up go stand over by the left of me". Chris points absentmindedly. "Ok, listen up:
Israela
Alexis
Sam
Colby
TJ
Isabella
Maria
Dai
Bob
Alisa
And Stone, All of you go stand on the left." The contestants that were called out go stand on the left. Alexis looks at Maria and rolls her eyes. "Great. Now I'm stuck with you". Maria scowls. Stone walks up to Alexis and grins. "Cheer up! At least you have me on your team." Alexis glances at him and rolls her eyes. "Even worse!" She turns from him blushing furiously. Colby walks up to Israela, who is chatting with Isabella and TJ. "Hey Israela! Hey Isabella! Looks like we're team mates!" Israela grins. "At least we have some decent people on the team then". Isabella grins at her. "I know! This is gonna be so much fun! A cruise ship around the world! Plus all the cenery for my art!" Sam walks over to them. "You're into art? Cool! I play the guitar."
Chris shushes them and starts reading again. "If your name is called out go stand on the left, just to make sure everybody's here. Listen up for the Screaming Dolpins:
Catty
Greg
Katrina
Joe
Amelia
Isabelle
Flynn
Oliver
Jerome
Tori
And Liam." The contestants go to the right. Catty looks around. "Hey, how come there are more players on their team?" Chris rolls his eyes. "Because I feel like putting uneven teams ok?" Catty glares and walks off to talk to Katrina. "Can you believe that guy?" She says scowling. Catty glances at Katrina who's staring at Greg dreamily. She smirks. "Hey Katrina, looks like you've got our crush!" Katrina shakes her head and gains composure. She smirks back. "Yeah right! I'm not into him. But looks like we're on the same team anyway." Greg walks up to them. "Catty and Katrina, is it? I'm Greg. Looks like we're in this together". Katrina smiles. "Hi. I just hope I can survive Chris."
Isabelle walks up to Oliver and Flynn and hugs her best friend and boyfriend. "At least we're on the same team." Oliver smiles. "As long we're on the same team I might just make it through this season". Joe walks over to Amelia. "So are you ok?" She looks up at him and smiles half heatedly. "Yes, yes I'm fine. I guess we're on the same team. That's ok then". Joe grins. "Yeah, I guess so."
Jerome strolls over to Catty, Katrina and Greg and smiles charmingly. "Hello! It looks as though we're on the same team! I'm Jerome by the way. Pleasure to meet you!" All three of the contestants smile warmly at Jerome and welcome him. "Hey I'm Catty! Nice accent". Jerome smiles. "Thankyou very much. But my accent is seemingly nothing compared to your beautiful voice". Catty blushes and smiles back at Jerome. "Thanks".
*IN THE BATHROOM CONFESSIONAL*
Jerome: "This competiton is even less work than I thought. Most of the contestants seem dim witted. But I need to pick a select few for my alliance. Should be easy enough. Just pick out the dumb ones from the even dumber."
*END CONFESSIONAL*
"Ok enough chatting! On to the room mates. Some of you will be in pairs while others are in groups of three. Try not to complain too much. Ok the room mates for the Killer whales are:
Israela, Isabella and TJ
Alisa, Maria and Alexis
Bob, Stone and Dai
Colby, Sam and Mike", Chris announces.
Israela, Isabella and TJ all stare at each other excitedly. "This is gonna be so fun!" Israela giggles. TJ sighs happily. "I know! Just promise we can do some girly stuff?" Isabella nods. "Yeah! Straight after we do some stunts!" Alexis sighs and looks at Maria. "Wow this is so not going to be fun". Alisa looks at them both. Maria smiles at her and puts a comforting hand on her shoulder. "Don't listen to her. She's just moody because Stone isn't noticing her." Alisa smiles half heartedly. Alexis' jaw drops open and she scowls at Maria. Stone comes jogging over. "I heard my name somewhere. What is it?" Alexis glances at him staring into his eyes then turns away blushing furiously. Maria giggles. "Oh its just Alexis. She's just angry because-" "Shut up and go buy yourself a life Maria" Alexis scowls. Stone stares at her and smirks. "Good one".
Sam goes up to Colby. "Hey roomie!" Colby grins back at Sam and Mike. "This is gonna be great! We have to read comics, preferably Charlie Brown and tell horror stories! I'm awesome at those!" Sam laughs. "Yeah and play pranks on Chris". Mike shakes his head. "Those are gonna have to wait. Totally stuck on this level!". Sam stares. "So let me guess, you're into video games?"
Chris shushes them. "SHUSH! Time to announce the Screaming Dolphins. Listen up:
Catty, Katrina and Isabelle
Tori and Amelia
Liam, Oliver and Flynn
And Joe and Jerome."
Just as the contestants were about to start chatting again Chris stopped them. "No time for that! Follow Chef to your Cabin dorms, take a shower and settle down. You guys stink." The contestants scowled and mumbled. As they were about to head out off the sky deck, the cabin door behind Chris burst open and someone- or something- leaped out and did a somersault in the air. All the contestants could see was a blur of fiery red hair and a manic grin, unclear of what the creature was until it landed beside Chris. Then it was all clear. The contestants gasped. Chris took a step back in shock. "I-Izzy? What are you doing here?" Izzy grinned manically. "Hey Chris! Oh, didn't you hear? I'm your new co host now! The producers hired me because they said I would bring more craziness to the show! My therapist says I bring craziness to everything. Awesome right!" Chris stands there frowning. "No, not awesome! This is my show!". "No Chris, OUR show! There's three of us now!"
"Three?"
"Oh yeah, I brought someone else too! HEATHER! HEATHER! YOU CAN COME OUT NOW!" Izzy yells to the cabin door. Heather struts out frowning, her hair still in a ponytail. "Stop yelling crazy girl! You were meant to wait till the producers gave our cue!"
Chris groans. "Heather too? I thought you died!" Heather frowned. "Nice to see you to Chris! But stop messing around. WE have a show to host! I feel sorry for the new contestants. But anyway get to your cabins!" The contestants shuffled out. Heather, Izzy and Chris were left standing alone. "Aren't you going to show us our cabins?" Heather said. "Wha? You go stay with the other contestants". Izzy shook her head. "Nuh uh Chris! We're hosts too now! We're your equals!" Chris frowned. "Just follow me…"
In Alexis, Alisa and Maria's Cabin…
Alexis flings open the door and throw her stuff on the bottom bunk of a bed. She looks around. "Not bad. This room looks like it could be actually lived in." Maria shoves past her and throws her stuff on the bed on the right. "Whatever. Just don't get in my way". Alisa walks in after them and quietly sets her stuff down on the top bunk above Alexis. "Well I'm getting in the shower" says Maria flouncing past. Alexis steps in front of her. "Um, no! I'll think you'll find that I'm getting in the shower first."
"No, I just said I was."
"Well we don't always get everything we ask for do we?"
"Move Alexis seriously, you bimbo cheerleader".
"Try and make me!"
Alisa sighed as she sat down on a chair. This is going to be a long season.
In Bob, Stone and Dai's Cabin…
The door flings open and Dai comes bounding in. "Ooh! Ooh! I call top bunk!" He says running over and leaping up. Bob comes walking in. "Then I call bottom!" Stone shrugs and sets his stuff down on a single bed. "This room actually looks ok. Better to what I'm used to anyway." Bob grins. "This seasons gonna be awesome! And the teams are pretty great too! I know you like 'em dude!" Stone glance at Bob. "Why's that?" "Because I know you like that Alexis chick! I saw the way you looked at her!" Stone shrugged and grinned to himself. "Maybe". Dai leaps down. "This is so cool! But this room is cramped right? Doesn't it feel cramped to you because I feel cramped really, really cramped. Oh my gosh the walls are closing in! Closing in... Wait, no I'm cool". Bob and Stone exchange looks of confusion. "Right…"
In Israela, Isabella and TJ's cabin…
The door flings open and Isabella comes skipping in. She squeals excitedly. "This is so cool! I'm just glad I'm not with that Maria girl, she seems not so nice! Oh my gosh! Look at this painting, isn't it amazing? It so vibrant…" She says drifting off, staring intently at the painting. Israela walks in and stands beside her. "Yea I like it too. I think it captures natures real beauty, don't you?" Isabella smiles and nods and carries on looking at the painting. TJ comes in and sets her stuff down on the single bed. "I can't wait for this ship to get moving ya'll! I just want to hurry up and explore the world!" Israela smiles. "I know what you mean!" Isabella sighs. "All I hope to do is get to do some extreme stunt! So cool!". The girls smile at her. "I am just glad we all got put on the same team. This is going to be so much fun guys!" TJ says excitedly. "I just hope the first challenge isn't too hard…"
In Colby, Sam and Mike's cabin…
Colby walks in the room and sets his stuff down on the bottom bunk and Sam grabs the top. Mike quickly walks in and flings himself onto the bed setting his stuff down and brings out hid Nintendo DSI. Sam raises his eyebrows. "So you like gaming huh? That's Cool. I'm more into musical stuff. I play the guitar". Sam brings out a mahogany guitar and starts softly strumming. "You're pretty good dude!" Colby says bringing out a bunch of stuff from his hand luggage. Sam peers over into the bag. He see's whoopee cushions, fake vomit, Charlie Brown comics, fake gags… He grins. "So you're pretty into your pranking stuff eh?" Colby grins. "Yeah! Its fun and makes a good laugh!" Sam grins and starts bringing out whoopee cushions and other pranks out of his bag too. Colby smiles. "I think we're gonna get along just fine".
In Catty, Katrina and Isabelle's cabin…
Isabelle saunters in the room and sits on the single bed laying her head back. She sighs as Katrina comes walking in. "Hey are you ok?". Isabelle sighs again. "Yeah. I'm just happy to be away from that Maria girl. She seemed kind sketchy". Katrina sets her stuff on the top bunk. "Yeah I know right? Seriously sketchy." Catty walks in and sits on the bottom bunk, putting her stuff on the floor. "Who's sketchy?" She asks. "Maria". Isabelle replies. Catty smiles. "Oh yeah, there's always a sketchy girl". Katrina giggles. "This season could be ok. At least we're on the same team, and Izzy is a co host! She's crazy and funny, and-"
"And Greg is on our team so good news for Katrina" Catty says. Isabelle giggles when Katrina's jaw drops. "No! That's not good news! Not at all!" Isabelle rolls her eyes. "Right… Don't worry Katrina, you'll come to terms with it eventually."
Katrina turns and rolls her eyes. "Yeah, eventually…"
In Tori and Amelia's cabin…
Tori walks in the room and puts her stuff on the floor by one of the two single beds. Amelia goes to the other bed and sits down, her stuff on the floor. Tori lays back and sighs. "These beds are so much better than those horrible sleeping bags. Right Amelia? Amelia?" Tori glances up at Amelia who sits quietly deep in thought. "Are you ok?" Amelia looks up and smiles wanly. "Yes. I am just thinking." Tori grins. "Thinking about, oh I don't know Joe?" Amelia looks up at her and blushes. "N-No! I was just thinking about…about…the first challenge." Tori peers at her suspiciously but smiles. "Yeah. I hope its something to do with athletics because I'm great at sports. I used to be a real clutz and I am still a little now but…"
Amelia lets her mind drift off, blocking out her surroundings as she thinks, deepin in thought…
In Joe and Jerome's cabin…
Joe walks in and sets his stuff down on the single bed on the left. Jerome strolls in after him and puts his luggage on the other bed. He sighs in disgust. Joe glances at him. "Are you alright?" Jerome shakes his head. "Of course not! Have you seen the quality of this duvet? Its cotton! Cotton! How could they be so cheap as not even provide silk at the very least. I don't know how I'm supposed to get a decent sleep…" Joe raises his eyebrows.
*IN THE BATHROOM CONFESSIONAL*
Joe: "I never realized how high maintenance Jerome is. Its just cotton. Maybe I should watch him. He seemed really welcoming earlier on but now I'm not so sure…"
*END CONFESSIONAL*
In Liam, Oliver and Flynn's cabin…
Oliver and Flynn come bounding in the room together, grinning. Oliver rushes to get top bunk. "I call top!" Flynn grins. "The I call bottom! Man, this is gonna be great! A free vacation! Right Liam?" Liam comes shuffling in, head down. He sits quietly on the single bed, putting down his luggage beside him. "Yeah great". He opens his suitcase to reveal a massive stack of books. Oliver's eyes widen. "Woah dude. That's a lot of books. You gonna read them all?" "I already have. I just thought I might read them again when I'm bored here". Flynn nods. "Maybe. But it's a cruise ship! There's a swimming pool hot tub, and there must be some other great stuff too!" Oliver high fives Flynn. "Yeah, you're right dude! Its gonna be great, huh Liam?" Liam smiles half heartedly. "Yeah, great…"
As all the contestants start to unpack, a message comes on through the loud speakers. Heather speaks. "Ok contestants! Wow I never realized how much fun this is! Finally I am the one bossing people around on a show instead of Chris! Anyway back to the announcement. I want the Killer whales to report to the dining hall in 10 minutes and the Screaming Dolphins to go to the fitness centre in 10 minutes as well. Be there or else"
10 minutes later…
The Killer Whales enter into the dining hall to find the room completely bare. The tables and chairs are gone and there is no sign of any of the co- hosts. "Trust Chris to be late" Alexis mumble angrily. After 10 minutes of waiting the team turns to leave but they find the door to be locked and all the other exits locked too. Israela bangs hard against the door. "Hey what gives?" The contestants eyes widened. "Oh my gosh! Chris lcoked us in here!" Mike says.
Aliza's eyes widen. "What do we do!"
"The room its closing in! closing in, closing in… AHHHHH!" Dai says screaming running around the room till he hits the wall. The contestants roll their eyes and stare at each other. "What do we do?"
MeanWhile…
The Screaming Dolphins have been waiting in the now empty fitness centre for around 15 minutes but find they are in the same predicament as the Killer Whales. Gregs eyes widen when they can't open the door. "We're locked in? We're locked in! Oh crap what do we do? WHAT DO WE DO!" Greg's breathing speeds up and he starts to hyperventilate. Katrina put a hand on his shoulder. "Greg calm down! We will get out of here. We'll know what to do".
But they didn't know what to do. Chris had left them locked in a bare room without warning or instuctions all alone. What do they do and more importantly, what the heck is going on?
