A/N: Sorry to some Jalyn fans. But hey, I'm sure he'll be in future episodes. He-he. Here's the next episode. Hope you enjoy.
Chapter Four: The Wacky Wild West
Last time on Total Drama Action: Reader's Choice, the two freshly new teams battled villians in a children's themed challenge. Some were went home crying about their wet clothes like Nathaniel, and some thought some were dead, like Bella. But then some drama stirred when Jalyn gave Jared help during the challenge, making the Killer Grips win. And then cheater, Jalyn was the loser. Find out the rest tonight on Total Drama Action!
The next morning, Jared got up, feeling horrible for what he did with Jalyn's elimanation. He sat on his bunk, while all the other guys were still sleeping. Then he decided to get dressed for the day. After getting a shower, Jared walked out of the bathroom when Rosalin and Tiffany walked up.
"Mornin guys." Jared muttered, walking past them, but Tiffany stopped him.
"We know how you won the challenge for us yesterday." Rosalin said. Her tone sounded really angry. "You asked Jalyn for help and then he gave in. And then he was voted off because of you."
Confession Cam
Jared/"Gosh, I already feel bad enough. Wait, how did they know about all of this?"
Rosalin/"When I was a CIT at camp, this never happened. Well, I guess we never were playing on a game show. But what Jared did was really bad."
Tiffany smirked. "And now we're gonna tell the rest of the team about this. And if you want to know how we got this info, Chloe told us last night after Milton yelled at her."
Then the two walked off, leaving Jared behind.
At breakfest, Cory made them slop again. Once he left the room, Kathleen stepped out of the kitchen with some scrambled eggs. "Here you go guys. And congrats on The Killer Grips for winning the challenge yesterday."
Chloe eyed Jared from her team table as she took a bite out of her toast. Jared glared back. "You." He muttered.
Just then, Annie walked into the room. "Okay guys, ready for the next challenge?" She asked.
"Yea, if we don't have any C-H-E-A-T-E-R-S." Tiffany spelled out the last word, looking at Jared. Finally, Jared stood up.
"That's it!" He yelled. "I've had enough of this. I know what I did was wrong. I'm sorry Screaming Gaffers, you just lost a valuabe player because of me." Jared faced the Screaming Gaffers.
Then he ran out of the room, almost in tears.
The twelve others followed Annie out of the room and over to the western set. She turned to face them, grinning. "Today's genre is the western movie! And the challenge is a little thing I would like to call, The Wacky Wild West!" Annie said. "The challenge will be split up into three parts. The first part, is a good old fashion horse race!"
Annie led the two over to a horse stable. "Each team, please pick one person for the race." She said. Soon, the Screaming Gaffers chose Alex and The Killer Grips chose Effie. Annie pulled two horses out of the stable toward Effie and Alex. She waited as the two got up onto their horses. They held onto the rope, so the horses would stay still.
"Okay you two, your gonna have to ride out there," Annie pointed way out in front of them. "And then ride around that cliff," She pointed to a faraway cliff. "And then ride threw town back to here. The first person back here, wins."
Effie grinned. "This is gonna be sweet!" She announced. Alex nodded his head.
"Good luck Effie."
"You too."
"Ready guys?" Annie asked. They nodded and Annie shouted out "GO!". They rode off into the sun.
Alex took the lead just as they rounded the cliff. Suddenly, Alex's horse stopped, and so did Effie's. "What happened?" Alex asked.
"I don't know. You're the scientist!" Effie exclaimed. Alex started rubbing the horses man. The horse looked up at the cliff.
"Effie," Alex said. "Run!" Effie looked at Alex like he was crazy.
"Why?"
"'Cause that's why!"
Alex pointed at the cliff as boulders started to come crashing down. Effie got off her horse and ran into town. She turned around to see Alex trying to get the horses out of the way. Her eyes widened. "Come on!" She yelled. But Alex payed no attention. Finally, Effie deciced to run to town, not to win, but to tell them what had happened to Alex.
Finally, arriving at town, Effie was ten feet from the finish line. She could have went right pass it and won, but she had to tell Annie and The Screaming Gaffers.
"Guys!" She yelled. "Alex's hurt!"
Confession Cam
Annie/"Okay, that's gonna be really good for ratings, but really bad for the medical bill."
Almost all of the Screaming Gaffers were worried while Rosalin and Tiffany were yelling at Effie to cross the finish line. Finally, Effie gave up and was about to cross the line when…

Alex rode across it on a hover board. Everyone was shocked. "Miss me?" Alex asked, smirking.
"Not at all!"Tiffany yelled. Alex ignored her little comment.
Annie stepped forward. "Okay, The Screaming Gaffers win the first part of the challenge. Please follow me into the bar for the second part!"
Confession Cam
Jasmine/"Wait, why are we going to the bar? We're not allowed to drink!"
Inside the bar, Annie stood behind the bartenders bar. "Okay guys. For the second part, each team will again pick two more players to compete in the Serve-a-Thon!"
Soon, The Killer Grips picked Cameron and The Screaming Gaffers choose Milton. Annie stood between the two once they arrived behind the bar.
"Okay guys. The challenge is, you will have to fill as many cups of soda before time runs out." Annie said.
"How much time do we have?" Cameron asked.
Annie grinned. "We won't tell you that."
Confession Cam
Cameron/"Well that's REAL helpful."
The two grabbed a cup. "GO!" Annie shouted. Quickly, Milton filled one cup and then another. He was on his sixth one when Cameron just reached his second.
"Come on!" Chloe yelled. "You're pathetic!"
Annie watched her watch. Soon, twelve minutes had passed and Cameron had reached his sixth while Milton reached his twentieth. Soon, three minutes passed and suddenly, Annie screamed "STOP!"
She walked over to Milton to see twenty-three cups. "Well done Milton." Milton nodded his head. Then Annie saw Cameron's cups. There were only nine there. "Okay, again, The Screaming Gaffers win the challenge. Now let's go to the set of the third part of the challenge!"
Arriving at the final area, Jared showed up. His face was back to normal, no tears. "Great," Tiffany said. "Cheater's here." Jared ignored her.
"So," He said. "Who's winning?"
"Us." Chloe said. "And it was fair till you showed up." Again, Jared ignored her comment.
"Guys," Annie said. She turned to the giant mine shack that was behind her. "For the final part of your challenge, three people from each team will be competing. So please choose your three players."
The Killer Grips finally chose Rosalin, Bella, and Tiffany. And the Screaming Gaffers chose Chloe, Jasmine, and Kristina. After that, Annie finished talking. "We're gonna have a gold rush. Each team will ride down into the mine and get some gold, and then get your butts back up here. One person must push the mine cart, one person must try and shoot the other teams cart, and the last one is in charge of getting the gold."
The six girls ran to their carts and got in place. "On your mark..." Annie said. "Get set..."
Bella was the pusher for the her team, Rosalin was in charge of getting the gold, and Tiffany was defending the cart.
Jasmine was pusher on The Screaming Gaffers, Chloe was getting the gold, while Kristina held the water gun that Annie had given her.
"GO!"
Jasmine and Bella pushed with all their might as the went down the track. Kristina was shooting everywhere like crazy. Then she accidently shot Chloe in the eye. "KRISTINA!" Chloe screamed. "You're SO gonna pay!" She kept her hand on her eye while she tried to catch some gold.
Meanwhile, Rosalin scooped up about three peices. Tiffany was shooting over at the other team. They were approaching the bottom of the mine fast. The two groups passed many dark tunnels. Bella pushed her way down the track, beating Jasmine due to Chloe screaming about her eye.
Bella finally reached the bottom and Rosalin jumped out and started to gather gold. Finally, when she gathered about thirty peices, she jumped back into the cart and ran right back up.
Chloe noticed them going up. She grabbed Kristina's water gun. "I'm so not losing a challenge again!" She ran up to their cart, and jumped on Rosalin, grabbing her gold. Once she had the gold in her hand, she pushed the cart back down the track.
Kristina and Jasmine followed Chloe up. Then Chloe jumped in their cart and rode back up to the sunlight.
They were greeted by Annie and the others of the two teams.
"Congrats! The Screaming Gaffers have won their first challenge!" Soon, Tiffany, Bella, and Rosalin climbed up out of the mine.
"Wow, that was really weird." Rosalin said, covering her face from the daylight.
"Anyway, the Killer Grips are gonna have someone voted off tonight by the viewers!" Annie said. "So enjoy your time here as you can."
Confession Cam
Bella/"That Chloe is so gonna pay. It was her fault we lost the challenge!"
Chloe/"And that's how it's gonna be during the rest of the season. I'm invincable."
Milton and Kristina walked back to the trailers together, talking about the challenge.
"You did really well in the last challenge." Milton said.
"Chloe did all the hard work. I acutally shot her in the eye." Kristina replied, and then the two started laughing. "But hey, you rocked in the second challenge."
"I know." They soon arrived at the trailers. "So I guess I'll see you at dinner?" Milton asked.
Kristina nodded her head. "You bet." She then walked inside her trailer and began to read a script. Milton walked inside his trailer too.
Meanwhile, a 'cast mate' watched the two very closly. 'Their probaly teaming up against me! I should vote them off as soon as I can.' It thought.
How was that? Do you think that I'm speeding up on updating these chapters? I mean, I'm writing them the best I can.
Anyway, Milton and Kristina's rocky relationship is getting there (I believe they will be the first couple of the season). But what will happen with the mystery cast mate in the way? Try and guess. I'll bet you'll figure it out sooner or later.
It's voting time. Please vote for someone only on the Killer Grips.
Next Time on Total Drama Action: Reader's Choice, the Killer Grips vote someone off. Could it be CIT, Rosalin? Maybe Effie, the loser of the first challenge? Or even Jared, the cheater?
