Jss2141- Once again, I LOVE this and I loved the change. Especially Scary Girl's new pet. Hopefully it will come in handy.
Me- Thanks! I'm glad you're enjoying. Scary Girl definitely has some plans for new pet spider.
Cecebeec- A change I didn't see coming!
Wow, this is going to be your usual brand of flipping the Canon I see. Interesting choice of getting rid of Ripper. Can't wait to see how you characterize Axel now.
Me- I do like a good flipping. I definitely wanted to see what Axel could do. Hopefully she gets more time in canon S2.
ToxiVillain- Nichelle is going home next chapter I know it but for some reason I really want wayne to get girlfriend this season stupid I know LOVE THIS STORY OK SHUT UP KEEP UP THE GOOD WORK
Me- Nice prediction. There's a possibility Wayne could get a girlfriend. I have one ship in mind. Which you'll see in this chapter. But anything else could potentially happen.
Unknown2006-Awesome rewrite so far and I love how you decided to keep Axel in the game. Can't wait for the next chapter!
Me- Since Ripper stayed in canon. I figured Axel deserved a fair shot. Glad to hear you're excited.
OmniBIBUltra Instinct Godzilla-Yeah, you were way off base with Damien, Millie, Emma, Chase and Priya. But that's fine.
Caleb gets the first axe, while Bowie and Julia form the first alliance of the TDI Reboot Season.
Figured I'd return to this after I finished the whole season because of the spoilers tag this chapter has at the beginning.
I agree on your assessment of TDI 2023 and the Top 5 favorite characters you mentioned for yourself, because coincidentally, these are my Top 5 TDI 2023 characters as well. It is an understatement to say Priya and Lauren aka Scary Girl are upgraded versions of Sky and Izzy respectively.
Priya is an incredible protagonist who flipped the lid on Indian Stereotypes as you've mentioned, while Scary Girl is a brand of comedic relief done in a stellar fashion. Damien is a Total Drama Noob done spectacularly well, Chase is a controversial prick you love to like/hate simultaneously and Millie is Courtney done right, for obvious reasons.
No offense to Ripper, but I do not believe he should have made it as far as he did in canon. I'm looking forward to how you flesh out Axel in this AU since she outlasted her canon counterpart.
Looking forward to the next chapter
Me- In my defense, I made that fic last year when all we had were the character designs. Lol.
It's nice to hear we have the same top 5. As for your opinion on Ripper. I find it hard to say a character didn't or did deserve this placement in this cast because of the upcoming second season. It's entirely possible they have something planned for the early boots and Ripper will go home early. At this point, we all just have to wait and see.
I definitely wanted to try my hand in developing Axel. She doesn't deserve the Eva treatment.
~ Ferocious Trout Cabin~
Damien was peacefully sleeping in his bed. The cabin smelled a lot more pleasant without Ripper's farts. His peace was soon interrupted by something touching his face.
"Ugh..." Damien groaned
His face continued to be touched until he begrudgingly woke up.
"I'm tryna sleep here!" Damien said angrily
Damien saw a giant spider sitting in his bed. All of its eyes were staring at him. Damien let out a scream and bolted out of his bed and out the cabin. Scary Girl sat on the other bed and was giggling.
CONFESSIONAL: SCARY GIRL
"My last pet died due to unfortunate circumstances."
"So I want to try my best to keep Mr. Spider alive for as long as possible."

~ The Mess Hall~
Millie and Zee were sitting at a table together eating breakfast.
"So Zee. Tell me a little bit more about yourself." Millie said
"Alrighty then. Hmm.. let's see. My name is Zee." Zee said
"I already know that." Millie said
"Oh...um... I really like orange soda. There's been a lot of debate on which is the best soda flavor. But I think orange is the best one." Zee said
"Why?" Millie asked
"Because it tastes good." Zee said
Millie slapped her forehead
CONFESSIONAL: MILLIE
"I've been trying to get more information on Zee. But he's like a blank canvas."
"I'm gonna have to dig a little deeper to get something interesting out of him."
END CONFESSIONAL
"Do you have any hobbies or goals?" Millie asked
"Uhhh... I really like watching movies. A lot of people prefer streaming services nowadays. But I just think there's something special about sitting down at a movie theater and looking at a big screen. Like broooo... those screens are so big." Zee said
Millie wrote that down in her notebook.
"What's your favorite movie?" Millie asked
"Man that is a tough question. I like all different types of movies so I guess I would have to narrow it down..." Zee said
Zee was trying to think and struggling.
...
"Oh! I got it! Weeping Summer Blues. That movie was hilarious dude." Zee said
"I'm pretty sure that's a movie about generational trauma, death and sadness." Millie said
Zee chuckled. Millie wrote this down in her notebook.
CONFESSIONAL: MILLIE
"Zee has a messed up sense of humor. Probably because the internet has desensitized today's generation."
END CONFESSIONAL
~ The Deadly Frogs Cabin~
It was a busy morning for the Deadly Frogs. Bowie was doing Nichelle's hair while Emma did her nails. Wayne and Raj arrived with breakfast.
"We got'cha some sweet slop!" Wayne said
"Just set it on the dresser. I'll eat it once I'm done here." Nichelle said
Wayne and Raj did as they were instructed. MK entered the cabin and was confused.
"Why is everyone acting like servants for Nichelle?" MK asked
"Because it's Nichelle Ladonna. She's one of the most influential teenage celebrities in the world." Bowie said
"Damn right. MK can you grab my makeup bag for me?" Nichelle asked
MK grumbled as she walked over to Nichelle's bunk. She decided to do a little snooping while she was there. She dug through Nichelle's other bag and found a cell phone. She stashed it in her pocket before going for the makeup bag.
CONFESSIONAL: MK
"Looks like Julia isn't the only one who broke the no cellphone rule."
"This really works great for the plan I have. Thank you Nichelle for being such a stuck up bitch."
MK got up and walked over to the confessional camera. Ripping one of the cords out. The confessional abruptly ended.
END CONFESSIONAL
~ Ampitheater~
The two teams sat on opposing bleachers while Chris stood on the stage.
"Welcome campers! Your next challenge will be your toughest one yet.." Chris said
Several contestants looked at each other with worry. Chef walked in with an empty bottle.
...
...
...
...
"Spin the Bottle!" Chris said
"This is our toughest challenge yet?" An unimpressed MK asked
"Yes. Here's how it works. You spin the bottle. Whoever it lands on, you must kiss them on the lips for at least ten seconds. But if you feel like going for more we won't stop you." Chris said
"Aw man.. why couldn't we have done this challenge when Caleb was still here?" Emma asked
"I don't know. You guys are the ones who voted him off." Chris said
The Deadly Frogs sighed.
CONFESSIONAL: BOWIE
"It was a good strategical move Bowie."
"Good strategical move, good strategical move.."
END CONFESSIONAL
"If you refuse to kiss someone. Then you automatically forfeit and lose an advantage for the second challenge. Any questions?" Chris asked
Chase raised his hand.
"What?" Chris asked
"You got any breath mints?" Chase asked
CONFESSIONAL: CHASE
"I do kissing videos for my channel. Piece of cake."
"But my main goal is to land on Emma, put on my Chase charms and have her come crawling back to me! Woo-hoo!"
END CONFESSIONAL
All of the campers were on the ampitheater floor, sitting in a circle. The bottle was in the middle.
"Who wants to go first?" Chris asked
"Me! Me! Me!" Chase said
"Alright. The bottle is yours Chase." Chris said
Chase smiled as he grabbed the bottle. He saw that Emma was as far away from his as possible. He gave the bottle a great spin and began to pray it would land on her. It spun and spun... eventually landing on
...
...
...
Zee. The two boys shared an awkward look.
"Crud.. can I get a redo?" Chase asked
"No dice." Chris said
"You two better start kissing or I'm gonna bash your heads together and make you." Axel said
Chase and Zee gulped. They both leaned forward and awkwardly smushed their faces together for a kiss. There was an odd flavor of breath mint and orange soda. The two were counting down the seconds until they finally reached ten. They pulled away and looked away from each other.
"No homo." Chase said
"Huh?" Zee asked
"If you kiss a guy, you gotta say 'no homo' afterwards. That's just basic knowledge." Chase said
"Oh okay... no homo." Zee said
"Seriously? Are you that insecure about your own sexuality that you have to say 'no homo'? You're such a joke." Emma said
"Well this 'joke' just totally rocked that kiss. How about you spin next and land on me?" Chase suggested with a wink
Emma huffed and crossed her arms.
"Chase you get to pick who goes next!" Chris said
Chase sported a devilish grin as he handed the bottle to Emma. She put the bottle on the ground. Gave it a good spin and hoped for the best. It spun and spun eventually landing on...
...
...
...
Axel. Who looked very unimpressed.
"Whatever." Axel said
Axel and Emma scooted closer together.
"So... how do you want to do this? I mean there's so different ways to kiss someone-" Emma said
Emma's rambling was interrupted by Axel grabbing her face. Emma stopped talking and stared at the other girl. Axel roughly planted her lips onto the other girl and began to count to ten in her head. Once time was up, she let go and wiped some saliva with her arm. A starstruck Emma sat in her place.
"Hello? Earth to Emma?" Chris asked
CONFESSIONAL: EMMA
"I... uh...well...uh..."
"Huh."
END CONFESSIONAL
Emma shook her head.
"Yeah! I'm here! Totally here! Um... I pick Axel to go next! Only seems fair." Emma said
Emma handed the bottle to Axel.
"You think going twice in a row is gonna break me? Well it's not." Axel said
"Oh no! I wasn't trying to break you! You're too good to be broken! I mean look at you!" Emma said
...
"I'll stop talking now." Emma said
Axel spun the bottle. It went around the circle before eventually landing on... Scary Girl. Scary Girl turned her head towards Axel and gave her a creepy smile.
"Kissing two weirdos. It's my lucky day." Axel said sarcastically
Axel scooted closer to Scary Girl and tried to grab her face. But Scary Girl swatted her hands away.
"Nuh-uh! We do this my way!" Scary Girl said
Scary Girl leaned forward and bit Axel's bottom lip. Axel screamed in pain as she tried to push her off. Scary Girl held on for a good ten seconds and eventually let go. Though Axel's lip was now bleeding.
"You fucking psycho!" Axel said
Axel tried to wipe the blood from her mouth while Scary Girl giggled.
"Does that count as a kiss?" Emma asked
"I'll allow it." Chris said
Axel begrudgingly handed the bottle to Scary Girl. Who then took the bottle and smashed it against the floor. Everyone shielded their eyes as glass went flying.
"Why did you do that?!" Damien asked
"I thought it'd be funny!" Scary Girl said
"Hilarious. Now I have to go get another bottle." Chris said
Chris walked away as the camera cut to commercial.
Scary Girl was now seen with a new bottle.
"And were back! Scary Girl will be spinning for the Ferocious Trout! And she knows that breaking another bottle will result in disqualification." Chris said
"You're no fun.." Scary Girl said
Scary Girl spun the bottle. Everyone watched intently as it spun around. No one wanted to be stuck kissing her, especially after what she did to Axel. Eventually it landed on.
...
...
...
Damien.
"NOOOOOOO!" Damien said
"What's wrong Damien? You get to kiss a pretty girl." Chris said
"That thing is not pretty! She's terrifying! She's revolting! But she is definitely not pretty!" Damien said
Scary Girl blushed.
"That wasn't a compliment!" Damien said
"What's it gonna be?" Chris asked
"Hard pass." Damien said
"Damien! If you pass then we lose the challenge!" Priya said
"Yeah but did you see what she did to Axel?! Nuh-uh! I'm not touching that crazy!" Damien said
"Don't be scared Damien, I won't bite... much." Scary Girl said
She took the opportunity to show off her fake vampire fangs. Damien shivered in fear.
CONFESSIONAL: DAMIEN
"I want the million bucks as much as the next guy."
"But a guy has his limits."
END CONFESSIONAL
"And Damien throws in the towel! Which means the Deadly Frogs win the first part of the challenge!" Chris said
The Deadly Frogs celebrated their win. Priya, Chase, Millie and Axel all glared at Damien.
"Coward." Axel said
"I'd rather be a coward than have a bloody lip." Damien said
Axel raised her fist, Damien chuckled nervously.
"Now, now.. save some energy for the next challenge. Everyone please follow me!" Chris said
~Obstacle Course~
Chris and the campers arrived at a certain part of the forest.
"Before I explain part two I need one volunteer from each team to sit out." Chris said
Multiple people raised their hand.
"Hmm.. looks like I'll have to solve this the old fashioned way." Chris said
Chris grabbed Zee's hat and pulled two names out of it.
"Damien and Julia!" Chris said
"WOO-HOO!" Damien said
Damien did a backflip and started dancing. His fun time ended as soon as he noticed the glares he was getting.
CONFESSIONAL: DAMIEN
"Skipping out on two challenges probably isn't helping my chances of staying."
"But you gotta sympathize with me a bit here. The cabbages, the sharks, SCARY GIRL!"
"A little too much for one dude to handle."
END CONFESSIONAL
"I'll be with you in spirit team. #cheering for you." Julia said
Chris gave Zee's hat back to him.
"Damien, Julia please step into these mysterious booths." Chris said
Suddenly two giant glass booths appeared.
"Ooh. Is this like a de-aging oxygen chamber?" Julia asked
"Nah nah. It's one of those money booths that has money flying everywhere." Damien said
"It's whatever gets you two to stop talking." Chris said
Damien and Julia stepped into their respective booths. Chris pressed a button to lock then inside.
"For the second part of the challenge. Each member of your team will have to do an obstacle course and collect a number. Which you will then use to free your teammates before they drown." Chris said
"DROWN?!" Damien asked
"Oh right. Almost forgot to add the water." Chris said
Chris pressed another button and both booths started filling up with water.
"For winning part one. The Deadly Frogs get helmets to protect their pretty little heads." Chris said
Chef threw a helmet at Bowie.
"Ow!" Bowie said
"I'll give you all a moment to decide which order you're going in." Chris said
The camera cut to the Ferocious Trout.
"Strongest to weakest. Me, Priya, Chase, Scary Girl, Zee, Millie." Axel said
"I'm the weakest?" Millie asked
"Pfft yeah. You have no upper body strength. Or any strength at all." Axel said
CONFESSIONAL: MILLIE
"Axel's just exaggerating. I'm not that weak."
Millie held up one of her arms and touched it. She expected to feel muscle but all she felt was her fat jiggling.
"Oh..."
END CONFESSIONAL
The camera cut to the Deadly Frogs.
"I'll pick the order eh! Me, Raj, Emma, MK, Bowie and saving the best for last! Nichelle!" Wayne said
"I like the sound of that." Nichelle said
"We got this challenge in the bag! There's no way they can beat Nichelle Ladonna! She's an action movie star! She does extreme stunts for breakfast!" Raj said
"Hehe...yeah. That's me all right..." Nichelle said
Chris blew his airhorn.
"Are both teams ready?" Chris asked
...
"I'll take that silence as a yes. On your marks. get set, GO!" Chris said
Wayne and Axel ran towards the obstacle course. Up first was a giant wall with ropes attached to it. They both grabbed it and started climbing. As they made their way to the top they noticed a bear standing there.
"What's with the bear?" Millie asked
"The bear will try to swat you down and prevent you from making it to the next obstacle. Thought of that great idea myself." Chris said
Once Axel was near enough to the top. She let go of the rope and jumped onto the ledge. The bear stepped on her fingers. She responded to this by biting the bears toes. The bear screamed in pain and fell over the wall. Axel and Wayne used this opportunity to make it over the wall.
CONFESSIONAL: AXEL
"Biting people is really effective."
"Maybe Scary Girl is onto something."
END CONFESSIONAL
Axel and Wayne ran to the next part of the course. A greasy plankwalk. Wayne treated it as a hockey rink and slid his way through. Axel tried to powerhouse her way through and ended up falling.
"It's okay Axel you can do it!" Emma said
"She's on the other team.." Bowie said
"Oh yeah.. I knew that." Emma said
Wayne was already at the third and final obstacle. A rope swing to a newly built rock climbing wall that numbers scattered throughout. Wayne grabbed the rope.
"Hoot hoot!" Wayne said
Wayne swung the rope and made his way over to the wall. He grabbed a 1 and jumped down onto a mattress. The Deadly Frogs cheered for Wayne as he made his way back. He headed over to the booth and typed in his number.
"I knew you could do it Wayne! I was manifesting my warrior goddess energy into you!" Julia said
"Really? Thanks Jules!" Wayne said
Wayne ran back to his team and tagged Raj. While he was just starting the course. Axel was slowly making her way over to the rope.
"C'mon hurry up!" Chase said
"Going faster will just make me trip again! Let me handle this!" Axel said
Axel eventually made her way to the rope and swung. She grabbed a 1 and jumped down onto the mattress. She ran over to Damien's booth and typed in her number. Damien tried to thank her but she ran back to her team and tagged Priya.
As Priya began the wall climb. She noticed the bear was preoccupied with Raj. She quietly snuck on by and made her way to the next obstacle.
CONFESSIONAL: RAJ
"Bears are like my bad luck animal dude."
"One time my team went against the Bakersville Bears and we got demolished!"
"Never trusted bears after that."
END CONFESSIONAL
Raj was wrestling with the bear. Luckily he wasn't taking too much damage since he had his helmet.
"Get him in a chokehold Rajie!" Wayne said
"This is Total Drama not professional wrestling! Move!" MK yelled
Raj heard MK's words and shoved the bear out of his way. He made his way over to the greasy plankwalk and tripped immediately. Priya looked back and snickered.
"That's why slow and steady wins the race." Priya said
Priya grabbed the rope and swung. Grabbing a 2 and plopping down onto the mattress.
"Snow Owls never go slow! Hoot hoot!" Raj said
Raj tried Wayne's sliding technique and it proved to be successful. Raj swung while Priya headed over to Damien's booth.
"The water's up to my ankles!" Damien said
"We'll get you out of there don't worry!" Priya said
Priya ran back and tagged Chase. Raj grabbed a 2 and plopped onto the mattress. Chase started climbing the wall and noticed the angry bear. He couldn't think of any other solution as he reached the top. He nervously waved at the bear.
The bear responded by kneeling over and giving Chase a good punch to the face. Chase fell down and groaned in pain. Emma broke out into a fit of laughter.
Raj came back and tagged her. Emma ran over to taunt Chase.
"All those crazy stunts you do and you can't even handle a challenge like this? You're pathetic!" Emma said
CONFESSIONAL: CHASE
"That was so sweet. Emma ran over to check up on me..."
"Or at least I think she did. My ears were ringing throughout the ordeal."
END CONFESSIONAL
After finishing her teasing. Emma started climbing the wall. She didn't have a plan for dealing with the bear. So she received a good punch to the face as well. She landed on top of Chase.
"Emma if we both climb up at the same time... we can work together to push the bear off balance." Chase said
"Work together with you?! The last time I trusted you, you cut the brakes on my car!" Emma said
"Sorry who did what now?" Nichelle asked
CONFESSIONAL: MILLIE
Millie was silently writing in her notebook.
END CONFESSIONAL
"Yeah! Which lead to one of the most successful videos on my channel! We broke over a million views!" Chase said
"See that right there is your problem. You're a self absorbed narcissist who cares more about getting views than his own girlfriend! Which is why we are through and I will never work with you AGAIN!" Emma said
Emma attempted the wall again on her own. Chase scoffed.
"Whatever. I don't need you.. at least I don't think I do." Chase said
Chase climbed up the wall as well. Once he was close to Emma, he shoved her.
"Hey!" Emma said
"You said we're through! So see ya!" Chase said
Chase pushed Emma again and sent her falling. Chase made his way to the top and shoved the bear. He jumped down and made his way to the plankwalk. Emma got up and tried the wall once again. The bear was still recovering from the shove so she was able to make it through.
As Emma approached the plankwalk, she saw Chase up ahead. He also noticed her presence and grabbed a handful of grease.
"I know how much you hate getting your clothes dirty! Here's a present just for you!" Chase said
Chase threw a greaseball at Emma's sweater.
"I hate you!" Emma said
"I hate you even more!" Chase said
Chase grabbed the rope and swung. He unfortunately swung too hard and crashed straight into the wall. He fell down onto the mattress without a number. Emma slowly made her way over to the rope and grabbed a number.
CONFESSIONAL: CHASE
"My strategy may seem weird but think about it!"
"A negative reaction is better than any reaction at all. If I pretend to hate Emma long enough."
"By the rules of reverse psychology, she'll want me back! Boom! Chase-charm!"
END CONFESSIONAL
Chase attempted to do the course once again. While Emma went over to Julia's booth and typed in 3.
"Namaste." Julia said
Emma shrugged and ran over to tag MK. She started the pace at an intermediate pace. The bear was strangling Chase and MK was able to make it through. She went through the plankwalk at a slow pace. Before reaching the rope.
"Not too bad but also not too good. Great job me." MK said to herself
MK swung and grabbed a 4. She flopped onto the mattress. The Ferocious Trout thought about how to help Chase.
"We can't go over there because he didn't tag us.. There has to be a way around this." Priya said
"I got a way." Axel said
Axel took off her combat boot and chucked it at the bear. It let go of Chase and fell down to the ground. Chase landed on the other side.
"Thanks guys!" Chase said
Chase got up and went over to the plankwalk. MK ran back and tagged Bowie.
"The Frogs only have two players left! The Trout really need a miracle right now!" Chris announced
Chase slowly walked across the plankwalk and made it to the rope. He swung across and grabbed a 3. He fell onto the mattress and ran back to type in the number. He walked back to his team in shame.
"Sorry for that crummy performance.." Chase said
"Tag me! Tag me!" Scary Girl said
Chase did as he was asked and Scary Girl ran at sonic speed. She quickly climbed up the wall and ran over to the bear. She spun it around and threw it off to the other side of the forest. Everyone watched with great confusion as Scary Girl went over to the plankwalk. She did a flip and landed on her hands. She then proceeded to handwalk the entire way.
CONFESSIONAL: BOWIE
"Okay I'm athletic. But how am I supposed to compete with crazy?!"
END CONFESSIONAL
Bowie tried to climb as quickly as he can. But Scary Girl was already swinging to the rock climbing wall, she grabbed a 4 and ran over to Damien.
"If you drown.. can I plan your funeral?" Scary Girl asked
"NO!" Damien screamed
"Pretty please?" Scary Girl asked
"NO! NO! NO! Type in the number!" Damien said
"Hmm.. I'll type in the number IF you let me plan your funeral." Scary Girl said
"Fine whatever!" Damien said
"Yipee!" Scary Girl said
Scary Girl typed in her number and tagged Zee. Meanwhile Bowie was sliding across the plankwalk and made his way to the rope.
"Smooth like butter." Bowie said
Bowie swung and grabbed a 5. He jumped onto the mattress and ran over to Julia's booth.
"How are you holding up?" Bowie asked
"The water's up to my stomach but I'm not scared." Julia said
CONFESSIONAL: JULIA
"I actually was scared but I couldn't show that to my teammates."
"Fear is a sign of weakness."
END CONFESSIONAL
Bowie typed in his number and ran over to Nichelle.
"You got this girl!" Bowie said
"Nichelle! Nichelle! Nichelle!" Wayne/ Raj/ Emma chanted
Nichelle smiled as she ran towards the first obstacle. She grabbed onto the rope and tried to climb... only to fall on her butt. She tried again and got the exact same result.
"What's going on?" Raj asked
"Hmm... Maybe she's trying to lure the team into a false sense of security?" Wayne said
"Whoa.. she's a genius bro!" Raj said
"Totally!" Wayne said
Zee was near the top of the wall and looked down at Nichelle.
"You need any help brah?" Zee asked
"Keep going!" Axel yelled
Zee shrugged and went over the wall. He went over to the plankwalk and laid down on his stomach. He then slid across the platform.
"Think like a worm, move like a worm.." Zee said
Unfortunately Zee slid too fast and fell off the other side of the platform.
"Dangit.." Zee said
Zee ran back and tried to climb the wall again. Nichelle was still struggling.
"Take 5!" Nichelle said
Nichelle grabbed onto the rope and tried to pull herself up. She fell on her back and groaned.
"Why is Nichelle sucking so bad? I thought she was an action movie hero." Emma said
"Or.. maybe she was lying the whole time and you're all a bunch of idiots." MK said
"Hey! I am a hero and I can do this!" Nichelle said
Nichelle grabbed onto the rope and made a little bit of distance. It took all of her strength to make it to the top of the wall. Zee was sitting there, sipping on his soda.
"Heck of a view huh?" Zee asked
"I guess so. Damn I think I broke a nail!" Nichelle said
Nichelle lost balance and fell over to the other side on her face. Zee jumped down and headed over to the plankwalk. Nichelle got up and tried to follow suit. Zee did the sliding technique standing up this time and was able to grab onto the rope.
He swung across and grabbed a 5. He fell onto the mattress and headed over to Damien's booth.
"Sweet standup bathtub my dude." Zee said
The water was up near Damien's neck.
"AAAAHHH! Why me?! Why?!" Damien screamed
"I've never seen someone hate baths before." Zee said
Zee typed in his number and tagged Millie.
"Go Millie! You can do this!" Priya said
"It's weak versus pathetic! Loser versus loser! Nichelle and Millie are the last ones on the course! Who will suck the least and complete the challenge for their team? Find out after the break." Chris said
Millie was struggling to climb up the wall. While Nichelle could barely do the rope swing. The fast paced momentum died down and everyone just stood there.
"Next time. We should probably pick more athletically capable people." Chris said
"Probably." Chef replied
Millie made it to the top and leaned forward. The entire wall tipped over and fell down. Millie coughed as she got up and walked over to the plankwalk. She slid across the greasy mess and accidentally bumped into Nichelle. They both went flying and crashed straight into the rock climbing wall. They were both able to grab a number.
"Run Nichelle!" Bowie yelled
"Go Millie Go!" Priya yelled
Both girls got up and had a determined gaze on their faces. They both tried to run to the booths but got tired halfway through.
"N-Need to catch my breath.." Millie said
"S-Same girl.. these challenges are hard." Nichelle said
"O-Oh please. Nothing's ever hard for you. You're a pampered celebrity who always gets her way.." Millie said
"Y-You're right... I do always get my way!" Nichelle said
Nichelle shoved Millie to the ground and ran over to Julia's booth. Successfully typing in the number. The booth unlocked and Julia was set free.
"The Deadly Frogs have done it! They win today's challenge!" Chris said
Wayne and Raj ran over to cheer for Nichelle. Others were a bit more hesitant.
CONFESSIONAL: BOWIE
"We all need to have a long talk with Nichelle after this."
"I think she's been hiding stuff from us."
END CONFESSIONAL
An angry Axel walked over to berate Millie.
"You almost had it and you let your guard down! Why?! You should've just kept on running!" Axel yelled
"I-I know! Yelling at me won't make the situation better.." Millie said
"True but it makes me feel better so I'll continue to do it!" Axel yelled
Priya ran over.
"Guys!" Priya said
Priya grabbed the number from Millie and ran over to Damien's booth. The water was up to his face as he struggled to breathe. Priya typed in the number and the booth unlocked. A stream of water and Damien flew onto the grass. Damien spat out some water and stood up.
"Y'know what?! Chris keep your million! I quit!" Damien yelled
The Ferocious Trout gasped.
"Hehe. Luckily we came up with a contingency plan in case this season had any quitters. The new total drama contract states if you quit, you owe US a million dollars." Chris said
CONFESSIONAL: DAMIEN
"Owe THEM a million dollars?!"
"I don't have a million dollars, If I did I certainly wouldn't be here!"
END CONFESSIONAL
"With this new knowledge in mind. Do you still wanna quit?" Chris asked
"No.." Damien said with a sigh
"Good! I'll see you all at the campfire for an exciting elimination ceremony." Chris said
Chris walked away.
~ The Mess Hall~
The Deadly Frogs all sat around the Mess Hall table.
"So are we gonna acknowledge what just happened or?" MK asked
"Acknowledge what? There's nothing that needs to be said." Nichelle replied
"MK's right. You totally flopped on that challenge. Are you really an action movie star?" Bowie asked
"Well technically speaking I am.." Nichelle said
"What do you mean by technically?" Emma asked
"I still do all the great acting that earned me all of these Gemmy Awards!" Nichelle said
Nichelle pulled a Gemmy Award out of her pocket and showed it to the camera.
"But the action stuff? That's not me. They use stunt doubles for those scenes." Nichelle said
"What's a stunt double?" Wayne asked
"The name pretty much tells you. A bunch of guys do all the action scenes because the pampered princess can't be bothered with it." MK said
"Hey! You don't know me or my life! I tried doing it but I'm just not built for that kind of stuff. That's part of the reason why I wanted to come here, so I can get stronger!" Nichelle said
"I'd really be touched by that emotional story." MK said sarcastically "If we weren't competing for a million dollars! You're a liability whose only gonna slow us down!"
"I won us today's challenge didn't I?!" Nichelle clapped back
"Only because Millie sucked even harder than you did! If you went up against Scary Girl or Axel, we'd be the ones heading to elimination." MK said
Bowie and Emma nodded their heads in approval.
"I..well...I can make you guys famous! You guys came here for fame right?" Nichelle asked
"I came here for that sweet cash. I don't care about becoming famous and coincidentally I don't care about you." MK said
MK stood up and walked away.
"You're a joke. Do your own damn braids from now on." Bowie said
Bowie and Emma got up and walked away. Nichelle broke down and looked like she was about to cry. The Hockey Bros looked concerned.
CONFESSIONAL: WAYNE AND RAJ
Wayne and Raj sat in the confessional together.
"I know Nichelle totally lied to us eh. But I can't help but feel bad for her." Wayne said
"I feel you on that bro. I don't think our team should just abandon her like that. She still tried her best." Raj said
The Hockey Bros scratched their chins in thought. Suddenly a lightbulb went off in Wayne's head.
"Bro... what if we trained her? We used to practice doing all those cool action stunts in my backyard!" Wayne said
"Bro you might be onto something!" Raj said
END CONFESSIONAL
"Nichelle?" Wayne asked
"What? You want to rub it in too?" Nichelle asked
"Not at all eh. We were just wondering if you wanted to train with us in the mornings. Usually me and Rajie head down to the forest and get a good workout in." Wayne said
"That sounds nice. Since today's all about honesty. I don't really know too much about working out. My stylist said sweaty is not a good look for me." Nichelle said
"It's all good eh! We all gotta start somewhere. All that matters is that you put the effort in." Wayne said
"Let's do it... I'll meet you two tomorrow morning." Nichelle said
Wayne extended his hand, Nichelle shook it as the two smiled at each other.
CONFESSIONAL: MK
"Since Nichelle painted a giant target on her back. I don't have to worry next time we lose."
"And since I have some free time on my hands."
MK showed off Nichelle's phone to the camera. It played a clip of Millie talking about her notebook.
"I used Nichelle's phone and the cord from the confession camera to download everybody's confessionals. Apparently Little Miss Millie has a notebook where she craps on everybody. It's time to expose another faker."
END CONFESSIONAL
~The Ferocious Trout Cabin~
MK snuck into the cabin while no one was around. She ran over to Millie's bunk and checked her bed. Nothing..
So she crouched over and looked under the bed. She saw the notebook and smiled. She grabbed it and walked over to the front of the cabin. She placed it near the door so the other team couldn't miss it. Once her job was complete, she left the area.
The Ferocious Trout were back after washing up. Axel walked up to the cabin and saw the notebook.
"What's this?" Axel asked
Millie gasped. She walked over to where Axel was standing.
"No! Don't read that!" Millie said
Axel easily pushed her away. She opened the notebook.
"Axel is an overbearing leader who thinks she's better than everybody else. When in reality she's just a nutcase who thinks zombies are real." Axel read out loud
"Ooh sick burn!" Chase said as he laughed
"Chase is an egomaniac who lacks empathy. I'm surprised Emma didn't dump him sooner. He's a walking red flag who comes off as misogynistic sometimes." Axel read out loud
Chase's mood quickly switched from amused to annoyed.
"What the? Who wrote that?!" Chase asked angrily
Chase walked over and saw the notebook had Millie's name on it.
"Why'd you say all this mean stuff about me? I'm awesome!" Chase said
"You guys weren't supposed to read that! They're my private thoughts!" Millie said
"So it's like a diary?" Priya asked
"You could say that.." Millie said
"That's all I need to hear. Give it back to Millie! Reading people's diaries is not cool!" Priya said
"Don't you want to see what Millie said about you?" Chase asked
Priya tilted her head in confusion.
"Millie said stuff about me?" Priya asked
Priya walked over and took a quick peek at the notebook. She saw the section about her and gasped.
"Priya's spent her whole life training for Total Drama that she forgot simple concepts like making friends and taking it easy. I think her obsession with overworking herself to death comes from her parents. They sound like crazy total drama fans who chat on message boards." Priya read out loud
A priya with watery eyes turned to Millie.
"Millie did you write this?" Priya asked
"Priya let me explain-" Millie said
"Millie did you write this?!" Priya yelled
...
...
...
"Yes I did." Millie said
A crying Priya ran into the cabin and slammed the door shut. Axel tossed the book back at Millie's head. She was able to dodge it.
"See you at elimination.." Axel said
An angry Axel and Chase walked away.
CONFESSIONAL: MILLIE
A stressed out Millie tapped her fingers.
"I don't know how that got there! I always write in the mornings then place it under my bed before a challenge starts!"
"The worst part about all of this is.. I feel like any potential friendships I could've had are now ruined."
..
"I really am my own worst enemy."
END CONFESSIONAL
~ The Campfire~
The Ferocious Trout walked over to the campfire. Once they arrived, everyone made sure to sit far away from Millie. Chris and Chef arrived with a tray of marshmallows.
"It's time to go over today's chopping block. So let's start off with Damien who refused to kiss Scary Girl and cost his team the first challenge." Chef said
"I did do that..." Damien said
It was Damien's turn to get a lightbulb in his head.
"Hey! Everybody! Vote me off! I deserve it!" Damien said as he stood up
Axel quickly sat him back down.
"You're not going anywhere. At least not yet." Axel said
Axel made sure to look at Millie as she finished her sentence.
"Chase you messed up a lot on the obstacle course because of your obsession with Emma. Who are you more loyal to? The Ferocious Trout or her?" Chef asked
CONFESSIONAL: CHASE
"Emma obviously. But I can't tell my team that."
END CONFESSIONAL
"Finally we have Millie. Not only did you bomb the obstacle course but you were talking smack about everybody in your notebook. That's just not cool." Chef said
Millie held her head down in shame.
"Everybody else has earned a marshmallow. Chris said
Axel, Scary Girl, Priya and Zee now all had marshmallows in their hands.
"Now we move onto my favorite part. The person going home is..." Chris said

"Millie!"
Chris tossed two marshmallows at Damien and Chase. Damien fell down to his knees.
"It should've been me! Not her! It's not fair!" Damien screamed
Quick Author's Note: Shoutout to anyone who gets that Yugioh reference.
Millie accepted her fate. She got up and walked away silently.
~ The Dock of Shame~
The Ferocious Trout stood there to see Millie off.
"I wrote one final page in my notebook. I hope you all read it.." Millie said
Millie could see the glares on everybody's faces. Except for Zee, he was unnaturally chill about this. The Drone of Despair came by to pick up Millie.
"I'm sorry!" Millie yelled
Millie was dragged away, never to be seen again.
"That concludes the end of another drama filled day! Want to see who goes home next? Then you'll have to tune into Total Drama Reboot!" Chris said
I bet that was a bit of a shock. I don't think this would be a very interesting re-write if I just did everything canon did. So I chose to eliminate Millie here. While I do like her, I didn't want to repeat the Priya plotline. Sooo.. she's gone.
I do know there's supposed to be a 2nd season of TDI2023 coming out. I'm not 100% sure I'll write a fanfic for that. But if I do, I'll definitely try to do Millie's character justice in the potential sequel.
I added the first challenge to give this chapter a bit more length. Thought it'd be a funny way to get things going and get a plotline started.
