Episode 2 - Walk like and Egyptian - part 2

We open with the contestants standing in their separate teams. In front of them is their prizes from the end of the first episode, each on different colored mats.

"Oh look, team colors!" Izzy states with excitement at Team Amazon's pink mat, Team Victory's Yellow mat, and Team Chris is really really really really hot's blue mat.

Harold has a complaint about the colors. "Why the heck is our mat yellow? We're no cowards!"

But LeShawna is quick to calm him. "Relax sugar. The mat's gold because Team Victory's in first place!"

Team Amazon is having problems with their own complainer. "I swear, if that man keeps trying to make me sing, he's getting a fist upside the head, and one less contestant on this show!" Duncan raged on.

While Gwen is chuckling at his threats, Courtney is getting mad. "Why can't you just sing like the rest of us? It's not that big a deal! Just do what Chris tells you, and maybe we can win this time!" Duncan just grumbles in response.

Gwen has her own idea of how to calm him down. "Why don't you just sing back-up the whole time? Chris'll be happy, and you won't have to sing to much."

This idea is a little more appealing to Duncan, putting a smile on his face. "I guess that could work, but I still won't like it." He crosses his arms and turns away in protest.

"But what about later in the season? Chris will obviously make us sing more solos as more people get eliminated!"

Duncan thinks for a moment, then smirked as he grabbed Courtney around the waist. "I guess you'll have to win it with your amazing singing voice, princess, since I'm going to have to make sure I'm outta here before we get that far."

Courtney's anger disappears as a smirk takes over her face. "We'll see if I even let you get eliminated." She pulls Duncan into a quick kiss, causing Gwen to gag at the sappiness.

Sierra smiles at the scene. "Aww, Duncney lives on. How the fans will rejoice after seeing this scene so early in the season!" Behind her, Noah was gagging, making Owen chuckle.

(Let's skip ahead to the first song)

Finished with his explanation of the challenge, and feeling the contestants have had enough time to prepare, Chris decides to get things started. "Aight, Nile's that-a-way, kinda big, blue, and watery, can't miss it. Or I guess you can, but then you'd die, probably get killed by the local scarab beetles. It's mating season and they get all killy when they're in heat."

LeShawna for once showed gratitude towards the host. "I am glad there aren't any out here, those things are nasty."

"I'll tell them you said so." As Chris said this, Chef pushed over a large jar, and a swarm of Egyptian scarabs came out and went after the contestants. All the contestants were screaming for their lives, until Chris interrupted them with the song bell. "oh, time for a song! Think of it as a mini-challenge. Music can sooth the savage mate seeking scarabe. So, make up a good song, and maybe they won't kill ya. Or don't, and get disqualified, that means you Duncan." After having a group groan, or cheer in Izzy's case, the song started.

Lovin' Time

Alejandro: No need to get crazy. It's lovin' time at last!

Cody, Noah, Duncan, Tyler, DJ, and Alejandro: You don't wanna eat us up.

Owen: We're mostly full of gas. No, no!

Gwen, Courtney, Heather: It's mating time for scarabs.

LeShawna: So, what'cha waiting on?

Izzy: Just ignore us humans!

All: And make out till the break of dawn!

Alejandro and Cody: It's lovin' time.

Gwen, Courtney, and Heather: Lovin' time, lovin' time...

Alejandro: Scarab mating season.

Alejandro and Cody: It's lovin' time

Gwen, Courtney, and Heather: Lovin' time, lovin' time...

Alejandro: Scarabs, get busy now...

Harold: It's lovin' time.

Gwen, Courtney, and Heather: Lovin' time, lovin' time...

All: Scarab mating season.

Cody: It's lovin' time.

Gwen, Courtney, and Heather: Lovin' time, lovin' time...

All except Ezekiel: Scarab mating season!

Ezekiel: Seasonal, eh! Whoa, no wait!

The scarabs snapped out of their love trance at Ezekiel's words, and immediately start chasing after the contestants. The contestants scream and run for safety.

Chris greatly enjoys the scene. "Nice one, go!" Pulling out and sounding an air horn, the race officially started.

Team Chris is really really really really hot quickly takes off, stacked on top of each other to fit on their small goat. Alejandro at the the top, standing on Owen and Sierra's shoulders, who are each sitting on Tyler and Noah's shoulders, who are amazingly managing to hold up the weight. Team Amazon leaves riding their camel, except for Cody, who is struggling to keep up. Izzy and Gwen are sitting in the front, Heather on the camel's hump, and Courtney and Duncan are sharing the back. Team Victory are managing to barely outrun the scarabs as they run through the desert.

Still enjoying the scene. "Who's gonna die, and who's goin' buh bye? Find out after the break, on Total, Drama, World Tour! Cha Cha Cha!"

[Insert boring commercials here]

(In the desert, after Team Amazon's little team interaction)

Team Amazon had managed to take the lead from team Chris is really really really really hot, and some of their members are celebrating by taunting the other team. "Gonna go win the race now, see ya." Blowing a raspberry at the team, Courtney joins in. "Eat sand losers!"

Alejandro isn't fazed by the taunts. "Such witty remarks from such fiercely intelligent women. I'm both humbled and intrigued."

Courtney scoffs. "Nice try, but I'm with Duncan."

"And what a pity it is that you should give yourself to someone with such low moral. Someone that would give up time with his girlfriend and one million dollars, just so he wouldn't have to do something as trivial as singing."

Duncan retaliates. "Hey! At least I'm not afraid to throw a fist in your face next time I get the chance, if you don't shut up!"

"You're going to punch him eventually anyway, why would giving him the option to put it off make things any better?" Gwen jokes, making Duncan chuckle. "That's true."

Having had enough of this conversation, Courtney yells to Izzy. "Can you hurry this camel up already?"

(Not much changes now, so let's skip ahead to the second song)

Team Chris is really really really really hot managed to be the first team to build their boat and start paddling. "To the water!" "It floats!" After gathering their prized goat, they take off for the opposite shore of the Nile.

Team Amazon had finished making their boat, thanks to Sierra's speed weaving. Chris had allowed her to switch teams with Izzy shortly after the Amazons arrived at the river. However, their camel is refusing to get on the boat. Heather is easily the most annoyed member of the team. "This is so unfair! If it wasn't for that stupid swap, we'd be half way across the Nile by now!"

Alejandro overhears her complaints. "We're gonna win fair and square, but to make sure you believe that. Izzy, talk to the camel." Obeying her new team member, Izzy shouts something at Ruby the camel. Whatever Izzy said, it made Ruby move onto the boat without any objections.

Team Victory isn't far behind. Already in the water, they are simply waiting for Harold to return with the last oar. "Come on Harold!" Quickly running to the shoreline, Harold manages to use the oar to poll vault right to the front of their boat. If only his feet hadn't broken through the reeds on impact. "Whoops." Not worrying about the boat possibly sinking, they rush to catch up to the other teams.

Chris, the concerned host that we all know and love, is lounging near the finish line with Chef. "Well now, clearly this part of the challenge isn't hard enough. So~" The music bell rings. "Time for a musical reprise!" He is met with groaning, moaning, and complaints from the contestants. "Hey, this helps make up for the last reprise you weaseled out of, Duncan! Now start singing, and put your backs into it!"

Rowin' Time

Alejandro: Mm, mmm. Crocodile amigos, what'cha swarmin' for?

Courtney: We don't mean to bug you!

Gwen: Please let us reach the shore!

Camel: Honk, honk!

Lindsay: These crocs are getting killy!

Harold: Just bop 'em on the nose! I learned that in Muskrat Boys, it vanquishes all foes!

Ezekiel proceeds to do exactly what Harold just said, except the crocodile eats their stick. "No!"

Alejandro: It's rowin' time!

Everyone else: Vanquishin'! Vanquishin'!

Everyone: Crocodile season!

DJ: It's rowin' time!

Everyone else: Crocodiles! Crocodiles!

DJ: Tell me I'm not sinkin'!

Cody: Yeah, it's rowin' time!

Everyone else: Sinkin' in, sinkin' in!

Everyone: Crocodile season!

Alejandro: It's rowin' time!

Everyone else: Rowin' time! Rowin' time!

The Amazons hit shore, followed by Team Chris is really really really really hot, and Team Victory arriving last.

Sierra: 'Til the Amazons...

Team Amazon: Win! Yeah!

Chris applauds. "Congrats, you're alive. Team Victory, I'm feeling in a good mood right now, so today, no elimination!" Said team gives off a round of cheers before Chris continues. "Also, as long as you brought your rewards across the finish line, you'll be hanging it party style in first class until our next destination! Call it my gift to you for surviving the first challenge. Bonus!"

Everyone cheered now, everyone except Ezekiel, who barely manages to break the news to his team before everyone started leaving for the plane. "I lost the stick, he he." Managing a few more nervous chuckles before the glares from his team shut him up.

Chris laughs at the news. "Wow, sucks to be you Zeke. Oh well, guess you guys will be riding it loser class this trip, all while having to listen to your fellow competitors party. Wouldn't want to be you right now Zeke."

As mad as their whole team was at him, they all felt LeShawna's words were all that needed to be said right now. "Listen here Zeke, I'm going to give you some advice now. Keep your mouth shut until we say otherwise, if you want to survive this trip, got it?" Ezekiel could only nod and follow his team, head hanging in shame as they headed for the plane.

(Confession Cam)

LeShawna - "We go through man eating scarabs, getting lost in the desert, almost drowning in the Nile, and almost getting eaten by crocodiles, and we lose out on first class because home-school couldn't hold onto a stick! He's got a lot to make up for if he's not going to meet that plane door next challenge!"

Ezekiel - "I'm toast, eh. Might as well butter up and serve myself with jam on the side and call me done. That's how that expression goes right?"

Sierra is incredibly happy, almost squealing like the missing wonder twins. "This is awesome! First challenge of my first season, and my team wins it! Maybe we'll be like the Screaming Gophers of season one! Imagine if all of us were still around at the merge! We could help each other get to the final six!"

Cody is the only one listening to her though, as the rest of their team had hurried off to the plane. "Yeah, I suppose that would be awesome. Although it would be a little hard to face friends in the finals. I don't think I'd be able to face someone like Gwen."

Sierra frowns. "Still loving on Gwen after two seasons of rejection? Now that's commitment. I'll have to make sure to tell my Gwody fanblog as soon as I can reach a computer."

Cody stops in surprise. "Whoa, there's a blog about Gwen and me that has fans? You've gotta tell me about that!"

Sierra smiles. "Sure, I'd be happy to, but first. We have a party to go to!" Grabbing Cody's arms she dashes off for the plane.

Alejandro is giving his team a pep talk. "We may not have won today, but we came darn close! If we work just as hard as we did today, I'm sure we can take victory from those Amazons tomorrow!" Owen, Tyler, and Izzy each cheer at their self appointed team leader's words.

Noah however, doesn't see things exactly as Alejandro does. "Not that it matters that we lost first place, since we all get the same rewards, but we only lost because you told Izzy to help them."

Alejandro looks slightly hurt at this. "Noah, you should know there was no way for me to think they could pull ahead of us. I thought our impressive lead would be enough to give us victory."

"Yeah, well, just make sure you don't do it again. Team Amazon is the bigger threat right now, and we can't be giving the other teams any slack what-so-ever."

"If it makes you feel any better, my intelligent yet somewhat paranoid teammate, then I promise I will take full responsibility if it happens again and causes us to lose. Now good job today team, let's go enjoy our prize!" Cheering again, the entire team heads off for the plane.

(Confession Cam)

Alejandro - Losing Sierra to Heather - eh, tragic. But I still have the upper hand. The president of Total Drama's fan club doesn't know a thing about me. No one does, and I intend to keep it that way. Because, compared to me, Heather's a saint! But I will be keeping an eye on Noah. Loyalty is the number one necessity of any army, and those soldiers that don't have it, are the perfect shields for war.

(In the cockpit of the plane)

Chris is overjoyed at the confessional. "Oh, finally, a real competitor! Where will our next destination take us, and" Owen screams in the background "will Owen get over his fear of flying? Find out next time, on an all-new episode of" Cut to outside the plane, where Owen's face is pressed against the glass in terror. "Total... Drama... World Tour!"

Edit: Fixed up the grammar and wording a bit.

Another one done.

Will Ezekiel manage to make up for his screw up, just enough to avoid elimination?

Will the winners and losers of the challenge stay the same?

Why did I make Egypt a full time reward challenge?

Well, maybe not the last one, it's a reward challenge because I wanted it to be one, but find out the answers to the first 2 whenever I get around to rewriting episode 3.
