A/N: Hey guys! Again, sorry for the wait; school sucks. I'm here now though :). Let the chapter begin!
(Theme song plays)
(Blundering Beavers)
Describing the atmosphere of an underground cavern is a challenging task. The cavern was always dark, of course, and always cold. Being underground, it stayed the same; did not change.
However, as the blundering beavers went back to their "camp" it seemed especially dark, and especially cold.
The nine remaining contestants of the Blundering Beavers were trudging back to camp, with their expressions raging from tired to rageful.
Confessional:
Jackson: Dude, that blindside yesterday, woah. I didn't see that coming, not for one second. I came here for the cool tricks, not for this stuff.
Ethan: I consider yesterday a fairly big success. I got rid of a silent enemy in Fay and kept two complete wrecks who are going to self-destruct sooner than later….ah, Heather will be so proud!
Leslie: What the fuck was that? My ally went home? Screw that! These assholes don't know how to play the damn game.
Bishop: That…what? what? They…blindsided me? Classless trash! They should know their place, and not do this trickery? Tell me, do they have no class? No honor?
Tristan: Phew...that was a close one. I have to admit, I was really getting nervous there...I tend to freak out a bit when something goes wrong, heh.
Simone: I'm not sure if yesterday night was such a great move, but I'm in the majority now, you know? I'm not here a lot, better make the most of it.
They reached their camp, and Tristan spoke up.
"Hey guys, I just wanted to thank you all for saving me".
People started nodding, but suddenly:
"Argh!" Danza screamed.
Simone raised an eyebrow. "What the hell is your problem?"
Danza snorted. "My problem is that that little shit is still here to thank you all in the first place! He should've left!"
Vanessa shook her head quietly from her place next to Anna. "why should he have left?"
Danza seemed not to hear her, but kept on with his rant. "After all, he was the one that knocked down our ladder yesterday! He cost us the challenge!"
Anna smirked. "Danza, you can stop the act. It is obvious that it was you who knocked down the ladder."
Danza gasped. "What? How did you-I mean, that's not true!"
Anna giggled and said nothing.
The young man snorted. "Well, I don't care about that, anyway! I wanted to see that nerd cry when he out, like the loser ass he is! And furthermore-"
Simone simply grabbed him, and threw him aside.
She then called out to him "I think we're done"
Suddenly, Leslie went up into her face. "Oh no no, we are not done.
Simone glared at her. "Are you threatening me? Because you can NOT take me in a fight."
Leslie got even more in her face. "I'll kill you if you and your little rat pack messes with me again, got it?"
She then stomped off.
Simone rolled her eyes. "Tryhard is as tryhard does."
Confessional:
Danza: This is ridiculous! That little nerd, Tristan or whatever his name is, he should've left! I wanted to see his pain! Instead, I got my own pain! Arrgh!
Simone: With some of these people, it's like whatever, you know? Leslie is completely screwed in the head. With people like that, you need to assert yourself quickly.
Leslie: I meant what I said. Those bitches better watch out, because they're dead. DEAD!
Ethan: I like Simone. She is not nearly on the same level as Queen Heather, of course, but they share some qualities. Plus, her physical strength makes her an excellent enforcer.
Anna yawned. "Okay, with tweedle dee and tweedle dumb gone, I'd like to get some sleep. So-.
She was interrupted by the sound of a cane hitting the ground.
"You will NOT be going off to bed just yet!" Bishop declared.
Anna eyerolled. "What is it now?"
"I would like to talk to you about the classless move that you all made yesterday. I was deeply insulted and offended by your lack of honesty!"
They all looked at each other.
Vanessa of all people spoke up. "if this is about fay, i'm so sorry…"
Bishop stared at her, and then laughed.
"Pah! You honestly think this is about that commoner gang member? I didn't even bother to know her name!"
"then...what is this about?" Vanessa asked.
Bishop spun sharply to directly face her. "What this is *about* is you lying to a man of prestige like me! Do you not know what the true gentleman's code is?"
"Excuse me? The only code I follow is the code of Heather, and that tells me that backstabbing is okay!" Ethan yelled.
Bishop just glared. "Pathetic commoner…"
Anna rolled her eyes. "Look, can we continue the screaming tomorrow? I'm kind of tired."
Everyone looked ready to fight some more, but they thought against it and went to bed.
Confessional:
Bishop: I suppose I shouldn't be surprised that no one aside from me knows the Gentleman's Code...classless wastes!
Anna: Let's see, the majority leaders are completely insane, the minority is insane, and the clingers are just stupid, and I'm allied with the nice shy girl? Game, Set, Match.
Ethan: I was originally going to boot Danza next, but if they do not respect Queen Heather, they will swiftly find themselves on the chopping block!
Simone: Ethan is smart and he's in control, which is good...the problem is he's insane.
(Rocky Raccoons)
Unlike the Beavers, the raccoons had no vote off, and no elimination. Thus, they were all asleep peacefully.
Except for Scott.
He was pacing in a corner, occasionally digging in random areas.
"hmm, hmm...argh, where is that idol?"
He continued digging, but to no avail.
Scott kicked at the wall in frustration, which caused his sandal to break.
He swore and started hopping up and down in pain.
"agh, I need to find that idol!
He kicked a pebble high, sighed, and continued his search.
However, something happened that Scott was not aware of, namely that Scott's leg was strong from years of farm work. Once he kicked the pebble, it caused the pebble to go high, and land down quickly.
Right on a sleeping Dawn's head.
Dawn's eyes shot open, and she woke up instantly.
She was then puzzled.
"How could a rock suddenly fall on me? No animals would do that!"
She then took a chance look at her right...where Scott was still searching.
She gasped. "Of course! Scott!"
Confessional:
Scott: Yeah, I need to find this idol! You see, heh heh, that's been my genius plan all along! If I can annoy everyone to death, and then find the idol...their ass is grass!
Dawn: Aha! I should've known Scott would be up in the middle night, doing something as nefarious as kicking innocent pebbles around!
Dawn quietly sneaked around, to get a better view of Scott.
Scott continued to dig and dig with his hands...until finally, he stumbled onto something!
Scott picked off a small trinket off the ground with a sign on it.
Once he saw what it was, his smirk got even deeper as he began to read.
"Congratulations, you have found the hidden immunity idol!"
Scott did a victory dance. "Yes! Muahaha!"
Dawn sighed, and slumped to the floor.
Scott's victory dance, however, was cut short when he read the other part of the sign.
"This idol will have to be played after the votes are made, but before they are read-"
Scott interrupted himself. "What? That sucks…"
Confessional:
Scott: What? Last time I had an idol, it was a get jail out of free card! Now I have to calculate the risk before I play it! This sucks…
Dawn: This will not stand! I will not let Scott continue his tyranny anymore! I must tell someone about this, someone I trust…
(Rocky Raccoon's, Morning)
It was about 9:00 in the morning, and all the rocky raccoons had gotten up.
"And I swear, Scott found a hidden idol, just like that!" Dawn exclaimed passionately.
Brick, who happened to be the person she was speaking to, raised an eyebrow. "Are you sure about that, Dawn? Not to doubt a lady's sight, but it was late and you could've imagined it…"
Dawn nodded. "Of course I'm sure! You know what Scott's like from last season?"
Brick thought about it for a second, and then nodded his head. "Yes, yes I do. Very well then, I will consider voting him out if we lose.
Dawn raised an eyebrow. "You're not going to tell anyone?"
Brick shrugged. "Why bother, he's sunk himself anyway with his actions.
Dawn looked ready to say something, but then seemed to think better about it.
Confessional:
Brick: I'm about ready to get Scott off, don't get me wrong, but there's no reason to gang up on him like this. Sure he can use his idol, but if we make no alliances, even if he uses the idol, it will be random and no one's feelings will get hurt.
Dawn: Don't get me wrong, I love Brick and I don't want to play dirty at all, but..it's Scott! We can't just not tell someone! I'll have to go to someone else, later.
(Blundering Beavers)
"And furthermore, what they did was completely against section a subsection c line 45…"
Bishop was currently ranting to a bored out-of-his-mind Jackson, who was trying his best to stay awake.
"The gentlemen code explicitly prohibits-"
Jackson suddenly stood up. "Look, it's Bill Gates!"
Bishop gasped. "What? Where he is?"
Jackson took the opportunity to slip away.
Confessional:
Jackson: Look, dude, I want to be a supportive friend, I really do-but Bishop is just so boring. He just goes on and on with fancy boring stuff man. It's like, shut up.
Bishop: Bill Gates wasn't even there! These commoners confuse me to no end, I tell you. It's little wonder that the one percent controls the world. Occupy Wall Street? Give me a break!
Meanwhile, another male was going through a rant.
Danza was glaring at Tristan, and muttering to himself.
"What's going on in that little nerd's head, I'd like to know, probably something about how SMART he is or about how he's the good guy...loser."
Confessional:
Danza: If there's one thing I hate more than anything, it's a geek. Who do they think they are, with their shit about brains and science and good underdogs? Good is for losers, I want to destroy!
Danza glowered. "Can't wait to crush that bitch's brains out…"
Leslie was walking, when she overheard him, and let out a smirk.
Leslie, sensing an opportunity, went over to Tristan.
Tristan saw her approach, and looked a little fearful.
Leslie sat down next to him. "Hey."
Tristan gulped. "Um...hi?"
Leslie continued. "I just wanted to talk about the game, you know?
Tristan shrugged.
"I know you guys are probably thinking about taking me out next." Leslie said.
"Actually, we haven't really discussed-"
"yeah, yeah, whatever." Leslie interrupted.
She continued on. "Anyways, Danza NEEDS to go. Did you hear him over there?"
Tristan shook his head.
Leslie gave a dramatic sigh. "He wants to kill you! He knocked down the ladder! Compared to little old me, he's the bigger threat by far.
Tristan nodded uncertainly.
Leslie patted him on the back. "Glad we had this talk."
Confessional:
Leslie: Hah, what a sucker! Lesson number ONE you learn in the gang; if you want to get higher, ALWAYS put the guy on the same level as you down! They're all gonna buy my act, and that idiot Danza will be dead meat!
Tristan: Yeah...that was some of the worst acting I've ever seen in my life. If Leslie thinks she fooled me with that, she's mistaken. However, I would like to see Danza go soon...they both could kill me, who knows?
(Rocky Raccoons)
"20...21...and 22!" Jo yelled.
But after 22, Tyler collapsed. He simply could not do any more of the "strenuous" excercise.
Jo gave a slow clap. "Congrats, failosports! You couldn't even manage to do 22...JUMPING JACKS!
Tyler groaned from the floor. "Come on, give me another chance! Ugh…"
Jo gave him a blank stare. "Let me think...no!
She marched off.
Confessional:
Jo: I thought Cameron was pathetic...and he is. But Tyler disgusts me, he's a whole new level of failure. I don't care that everyone wants Scott out, I want Tyler GONE!
Tyler: Ugh, I thought Jo would be cool, but she's totally mean man! She's just not giving me the chance I need to dominate!
Eva scoffed from a distance. "Now that's just sad."
Noah shrugged. "I don't really care, although Tyler collasping on the ground is a fantasy I never dreamed would come true.
Eva chuckled softly.
Confessional:
Eva: You know, Noah's okay. You would never expect me to get along with him, I guess, but he's...fun. BUT IF HE BETRAYS ME, HE'S DEAD!"
Noah: As much I hate being on this sadistic game...the dynamics of the team are quite fascinating to watch. We're full of fitness freaks, of course, but the most interesting pair to watch is Heather and Alejandr. For instance, just look at them now…
Heather and Alejandro were talking next to the well.
Alejandro smirked at her. "So...how is your alliance building going?"
Heather glowered, but gave him a fake smile. "It's going great! Much better than yours, I'm sure."
Alejandro laughed. "Really? Well, that's interesting, because I've got Dakota in the palm of my hand...isn't that right, Dakota."
Dakota, who was suddenly behind Alejandro, nodded. "Yep! Alejandro's my number 1 ally!
"Well...what do you think of going with Team Heather?' She asked.
Dakota giggled. "With those fashions? Are you kidding me right now?"
"Hey!"
Alejandro sighed. "Okay, let's cut the crap. You need an alliance, I need a number, I'm willing to offer you a deal. You should take it."|
Heather sighed. "Fine...deal."
They shook hands, but pulled away quickly, and then walked off.
Dakota turned to Alejandro. "Do we have to work with her? She's so lame?"
Alejandro chuckled. "Ah, my dear, you must think with more strategy. Heather, being lame as you put it, will not pose and threat to us!"
Dakota sighed. "I guess you're right, and handsome!"
Alejandro smirked.
Confessional:
Heather: Ugh...you have no idea how much I hate working with Alejandro. Like, seriously despise. But, I don't have any other options at this point-except...wait a minute, the queen has an idea!
Alejandro: Dakota? Hah. Truly a pathetic pawn if their ever was one. But, as a loyal number, she is useful to me.
Dakota: Heather is like, weird. I don't like, like her...but Alejandro is soo hot!
Heather went off in a seperate direction, to where Scott was hanging out.
Scott looked at her and tipped an imaginary hat.
"Well hello there, my damsel in distress!"
Heather looked disgusted. "Cut the bullshit."
Scott laughed. "Cut the BS? Well then why the hell are you here?
Heather got right up in his face. "Because, I need an ally, and you're just disgusting enough to say yes."
Scott snorted. "Allies? I don't need allies!"
"Of course you need allies..especially with what you've been doing." Heather said.
"No, missy, I really don't need allies." laughed Scott.
Heather grew frustrated. "Are you kidding me? Do you want to get voted off?
Scott gave a cold laugh. "Well I won't get voted off..with this idol!"
He held up his idol.
Heather facepalmed.
"Well, this is just great…"
Confessional:
Scott: My plan? It's simple, yet genius. All I have to do is show my idol around, and people will be scared to vote for me...I won't even have to play it. Damn, I'm good.
Heather: This complicates things, I need to come up with a target if we lose, but I have no power! Ugh...I guess I'll piggyback off someone else.
Meanwhile, Dawn was frantically talking to Jo.
"I'm telling you! Scott has an idol, we have to get rid of him!" Dawn exclaimed.
Jo scratched her chin. "Hmm...well, it's simple. We just tell Scott we're voting for him, vote for someone else, and then boom, he wastes his idol."
Dawn frowned. "I thought of that, but that's backstabbing."
Jo laughed. "Hah! Wake up kid! This game is a backstabbing game. Sooner you realize that, the better."
Dawn sighed. "Fine, who would you like to get rid of?"
"That useless Tyler! And don't tell me he's nice, either. He's just pathetic.
What they did not know was that Noah was watching from behind.
Confessional:
Dawn: Jo's logic makes sense, but Tyler is truly a gentle soul! I would not wish for him to go this early, Jo seems very ruthless, as usual…
Jo: Tyler is a waste of the air I breathe. He NEEDS to go.
Noah: Yeah...nice try. Just because I'm a bookworm who doesn't want to be here, doesn't mean I don't want a million dollars. Information is power in a game like this, and now that I have info, I have power.
Tyler ran to the middle of the camp.
"Guys! We need to climb up to the next challenge."
Eva roared. "LET'S DO THIS!"
As they were climbinb, Noah whispered to Alejandro.
"By the way, Scott has an idol. Thought I'd let you know."
He then climbed up.
For once in his life, Alejandro was left speechless.
Confessional:
Noah: This should work out nicely.
Alejandro: Scott has an idol? What! Is Noah lying to me? Why would he...damn it!
Tyler: Man, I am so PUMPED for this challenge. We're gonna own it, and I'm going to prove my worth!
Eva: All I can say is...we better win!
(Blundering Beavers)
The team had also recieved the message, and we're heading out on their weak ladder handed to them by interns.
Simone looked at Danza. "Well, better hope he doesn't kick the chris statue down this time."
Ethan laughed. "You're funny!"
Simone let out a soft smile.
Ethan looked at Simone. "You know...even if we are just allies in a game, and we're both happy to backstab, it's nice to have...a companion."
Simone nodded. "Yeah...I know what you mean.
Confessional:
Ethan: I'll admit it, aside from my worship of Queen Heather, Simone is the first person I've really talked to in a long time. I mean, I'll backstab her, but she's...nice.
Simone: As scheming and annoying as Ethan is...he's not a bad person.
(Challenge!)
The two teams hiked out of their caves, and onto the island flat area
The teams looked at each other and started sizing them up...until Chris flew in on a helicopter.
"Hey! Can't have you socializing now, can I?"
The contestants just rolled their eyes, except for Ethan, who looked at the canons in longing.
Chris gave out a long sigh. "Okay so...we've had severe budget cuts for the challenges, especially the early ones. So, our challenge of having you perform a harry houdini trick while in fire has been postponed."
"Instead, we're going to make you play a game of basketball! First to ONE wins, since that adds suspense!Have fun, losers!"
(Challenge!)
"3...2...1..go!"
Eva grabbed the ball, and threw at the other team.
Many were knocked out of the way, until Simone grabbed the ball...and promtly got shocked by it!"
Chris chuckled. "Yeah, we added that surprise."
It went back to Jo, who shot...until Leslie threw a stone at it and caused it to fall down."
Chris smiled. "No rules against that!"
It fell to Dawn's hands, who shriked and passed it to Scott...who just let it roll by.
"Argh!" Brick shouted. He made a leap for the ball, but Jackson got it and ran over to the net...and tripped!
Tyler somehow got the ball, and ran over to the net!
Chris laughed. "Tyler of all people gets to make a shot? Wow!"
"You can do it Tyler!" Dawn cried out."
"Try not to die...unless you miss!" yelled Jo.
Tyler shot, and…scored!
In the other team's net.
Chris got up. "Beavers win immunity!"
They all cheered and rah rah rah.
He turned to the angry Raccoons.
"You guys, on the other hand, will have to vote someone out! I'd say sorry, but I'm not."
(Rocky Raccoons)
Once they got back to camp, Eva let out a scream.
"Tyler! Scott!"
Tyler hung his head in shame, while Scott snorted.
Jo continued for Eva. "You two are some of the most pathetic, miserable, stupid creatures I've ever seen on this earth! One of you is going home tonight!
Scott laughed. "Oh really? Well, I'm not going home with this idol!"
He pulled it out. Most people already knew, but the few who did not gasped quietly.
Scott seemed angry about the reaction, but shrugged.
"Look, I'm using this tonight. If you wanna vote for me, and go home if I choose you...have fun!"
He then stormed off, very pleased with himself.
Confessional:
Scott: I think they'll vote for me, so I'll use my idol. I'm not sure who to vote for, though, they all equally suck.
Brick: *sigh*. It looks like there's no other option at this point. Tyler, you were a brave soilder, but it's time for you to go.
Tyler: Aw man...this blows! I don't want to go, I have so much more to offer!
Jo: Peh, so moon girl was right. This is great! All I need to do is to get a majority, and Scott wastes his idol, and Tyler is bye-bye!
Brick went up to Jo. "Look, Maam, I know we've had disagreements before, but Tyler needs to go for the good of the squad."
Jo smirked. "What say you, Eva?"
Eva simply grunted.
Noah, Dawn, Alejandro, and Dakota, who were also present, nodded as well.
Heather was grabbing Scott by the hem of his shirt.
"Look, we need to do something here!"
Scott laughed. "Relax, babe! I'll play my idol, you vote for Tyler, it's all good!"
Heather suddenly stopped dead in her tracks. "Um...yeah! Use your idol, alright!"
Scott smirked. "Glad you see it my way."
Confessional:
Eva: Tyler screwed up, so I guess I'll vote for him. But honestly? As long as it's not me going home, I don't really care.
Heather: This is perfect...I don't want Tyler to go, he's not a threat. If I can get Alejandro to convince people to vote the way I want to..I can get rid of a real threat to my game.
On the other side of the cavern, Dawn and Noah were talking.
"So, I heard about your little talk with Jo." Noah said.
Dawn sighed. "Ugh, I'm no good at this decit...I knew I would be discovered soon."
Noah continued. "You sounded like you didn't want Tyler to go."
Dawn shook her head. "No! He is a friend to creatures!.
Noah looked interested. "Hey...would I be considered a so called *friend* to animals? Because the whole idea is absurd-
Suddenly, a rabbit jumped on Noah's head.
He just sighed. "Should've known."
Dawn giggled, and said. "It looks like you are a true friend to fauna! We should work together!"
Noah looked surprised, than shrugged. "Sure. And if you don't want Tyler gone, I can help you with that.
Confessional:
Dawn: Noah seems like a useful ally for me, someone who I can bond with spritually! Also, he's kind of cute *giggles*.
Noah: Dawn may be a hippie, but she's not NEARLY as annoying as other people here. Besides, this works out best for my game, as well.
On yet another corner of the cavern (there's a lot of them), Dakota was conversing with Alejandro.
Well, more like whining.
Dakota was begging to Alejandro. "Well, why can't we get rid of Scott! he's so gross!"
Alejandro sighed. "I already explained this to you, Dakota. Our votes would be wasted-
"I don't care! I just want Scott, like, gone!" Dakota yelled.
Confessional:
Dakota: Strategy, hatategy! I just want that loser gone!
Alejandro: Dakota is...beginning to be more trouble then she's worth.
Dakota ran off to put makeup one, giving Al a chance to sigh in relief.
Heather, Dawn, and Noah all came up to him at the same time.
"We don't want Tyler to go, help us!" They all said.
Heather rolled her eyes. "I'd say jinx, but I don't drink fatty sodas."
Alejandro smirked. "Well, well, well. It appears I can be of use to you?"
Noah nodded boredly. "Yeah, none of us appear to want Tyler gone, as we so brillaintly said. You have votes, tag them onto us.
Al sighed. "Alas, I only have one vote. Dakota is adamant on voting for Scott.
Heather facepalmed. "Moron…".
Noah sighed. "Then...we need Tyler's vote."
Al nodded. "But if that is the case...we need someone that Tyler will agree to vote for. We can't use someone like Brick.
Dawn suddenly raised her hand.
"I think I have an idea…"
(Elimination Ceremony)
All 10 contestants sat down and looked in wonder at the glimmering crystal cavern.
Much to everyone's surprise, Chef walked over.
"SO! Chris Mclean, aka my boss who NEVER GIVES ME MY CHECKS!, has taken a, um, vacation. I will be hosting this Elimination Ceremony!
"You all know the drill by now! Once I call your name, you're safe. If I don't call your name, then heh heh, bye bye!
"Okay! So-"
"Wait!" Scott cried out.
Chef looked at him. "Maggot, what in the hell do you want?
Scott strutted up to Chef. "I'd like to play...my idol!"
He showed it with dramatic flair.
Chef laughed. "Well, that's great...considering you only got 1 vote!"
Dakota sighed.
Scott gasped. "What! One vote! I-I-I take it back!"
Chef grabbed it and threw it in the fire. "No backsies in this army!"
Brick saluted.
Chef grumbled. "Enough distractions! I ain't got no time for suspense! I'm doing this fast!"
"Marshmellows go to...Eva, Noah, Dawn, Heather, Alejandro, Scott, Dakota, Brick, and…
Jo laughed. "Oh come on, it's obviously going to to be me-
"Tyler gets the last marshmellow!"
Jo turned purple, and spluttered, "What?"
Heather shook her head. "sorry, just strategy!"
Jo said nothing, just stomped to the boat of losers and was sent off.
Chef turned to the camera. "Blah blah, blah blah, blah blah blah! Next time, on Total Drama Fans vs canons!"
Votes:
Jo: Tyler
Eva: Tyler
Noah: Jo
Heather: Jo
Scott: Dakota
Al: Jo
Dakota: Scott
Brick: Tyler
Tyler: Jo
Dawn: Jo.
A/N: And that does it for Jo.
Jo was basically there to be a negative character who somewhat kickstarted the canon plot a little. She wasn't major, but a lot of major rivalies and such happened because of her, so I'm glad for that. She was only there as a set up character though, so it's time for her to leave.
