Best Female Friends For Life

A small tremor filled the place. Everyone went silent… The winner was decided.

Katie and Sadie were standing on the carpet of completion next to Noah, the three were huffing and puffing. Some steps behind them, Owen was lying on the ground, groaning loudly.

"And the winners are THE BEST FEMALE FRIENDS!"

The bleachers began to cheer wildly. Noah helped Owen stand up, and the big guy hugged him while crying, Noah patting his back. Katie and Sadie held hands, jumped, and squeed happily. Suddenly Brody, Geoff, the best friends, the larpers, the Rockers, and the Fashion bloggers began to toss them into the air, as more former contestants ran toward the carpet to congratulate the winners and comfort the losers.

The Ridonculous Race: Katie and Sadie, Winners.

Katie and Sadie were sitting in the studio, looking at the camera with wide eyes and big grins.

"When I read about the Ridonculous Race in the newspaper, I knew this was our moment and that we would rock this competition," said Katie holding her best friend's hands

"Katie was so excited about the race that she made the outfits and the backpacks before recording the audition tape," said Sadie, chuckling.

Katie nodded. "But winning!? Oh my gosh, I expected to do well, maybe reach best 5, but winning was something I never dreamed about."

"Me too! Not even in my wildest dreams I think we would win," Sadie said her voice filled with excitement, "We're like on the same wavelength."

"EEEEEEEEEEE!" squeed both friends jumping and cheering on their chairs.

(The image shows a montage of scenes of the BFFFLs in diverse challenges.)

"But we did it thanks to Katie! Her strong will, big heart, and way of handling animals helped us beat most of the challenges. Like performing in Finland, milking the poison of the Komodo dragons, or thinking about sliding through the handrails in New York," said Sadie in an excited tone.

"That isn't true! I did my part but you also did yours. It was thanks to your smarts and strength we could best many of the hardest challenges. You carried me in your arms in Hawaii, found the exit from the cell in Australia, and it was your idea to use the subway to reach the Empire State. Without you, I would have been eliminated in the first 4 challenges," said Katie in a shocked tone.

"I didn't think about it. So in the end, can we agree we won because we were together?"

"Agreed."

(We go back to show Katie and Sadie.)

Katie made a small frown. "To be honest, I entered to prove I was more than a 19th place, but in the end, I learned something more important…"

"That you must believe more in yourself and that fame isn't as important as self-confidence?"

"Yes… that is what I learned. Ugh, C'mon Sadie you can't steal my line like that," said Katie blushing and putting her hands on her hips.

"Hihihi, Sorry. I also learned a lot. I learned that everyone has their own skills that make you unique and wonderful and that comparing to the rest is totally a one-way street to frustration. Because maybe your talents and your friends' talents are different and that's awesome," she then put a hand on Katie's shoulder. "But most importantly, I learned that you're my best friend and that I can always trust you because even if we're different, we're the bestest friend out there. Thanks for being there, Katie!"

"No Sadie, I'm the one that is grateful to have you at my side," said Katie, putting her hand over Sadie's hand.

Both then hugged each other, making big smiles. "BEST FRIENDS HUG! EEEEEEEE!"

They squeed so loudly that the camera lens cracked, ending the interview.

The image showed Katie and Sadie throwing the money into the air happily while the host frowned at them.

"Yes! Throw all your money to the ground, very smart," said Don, who then looked at the camera with a big smile. "That's all for now. We hope you enjoyed our incredible race around the world, be sure to keep an eye for more of The Ridonculous Race."

The transmission ended, some teams kept chatting, and some left the stage. The Race was over. Now each one of the participants will continue with their lives.

One month later, NEXT nightclub, Toronto, Canada.

The huge crystal and steel building reflected the lights of Downton Toronto. One of the most popular nightclubs in the city, NEXT is famous for its events, DJ nights, and great atmosphere. With a capacity of over 300 guests. It's one of the hot places of the Torontonian night.

But not today.

"Wow, it's really huge and shiny!" said Owen looking at the building. He was wearing a black shirt and jeans with a leather jacket.

"C'mon big guy, it's not the first time you came here," said Noah, who was dressed in white pants and a white shirt with a blue navy jacket.

"Well, it's my first time, and it's not so impressive," said Emma, hugging Noah's arm. She wore a blue tank top, an executive white dress, and a white jacket. "But I'm sure it'll be fun because I'm with you Nowy."

Noah kissed her on the cheek. "No, it'll be fun because I'm with you Em."

"Please, can you flirt once we're inside?" said Kitty, dressed in a red spaghetti straps dress with a small white jacket. "Those guys just got in front of us."

And as Kitty said, a group of six teenagers got in front of them. But things didn't go as expected.

The entrance was warded by two huge bouncers, wide as fridges and with arms as wide as Noah. One was a blond man with a buzz cut, and the other a black man with dreadlocks. They were shaking their heads and shooing the group in front of them.

"Oh c'mon! Just look at the other side, man." said one of the teenagers, a tanned guy with curly black hair.

"The place is full for tonight, so go away!" said one of the bouncers.

Another one, a white guy with blond hair in spikes, glared at them. "Oh c'mon, that isn't possible. You just let some guys go inside."

"I already told you to get lost. So do it before we call security," said the other man, lowering his sunglasses and glaring at them.

The teenagers went away, making Owen gulp audibly.

"It seems we're too late. I think the place is full," said Owen nervously.

"Don't give up so easily. We were invited, and if it doesn't work, we can try to use our fame," Kitty winked. "We appeared on tv after all."

Noah sighed, "You say that because it's your first tv show, but normal people would never remember you. So don't think people will stop you in the street and ask for your autograph."

"Oh, what a bummer," said Kitty, lowering her shoulders.

The small group walked toward the bouncers, who glared at them.

"Sorry, the place is full," said the blond bouncer, glaring at them.

Before they could talk, the bouncer with dreadlocks lowered his sunglasses and elbowed his friend. "Hey man, that guy…"

"It's TOTAL DRAMA OWEN!" said the blond bouncer. The other bouncer took off the chain and let them enter. "Man we're big fans. Can I shake your hand?"

"Hehehe, yes, no problem," said Owen shaking hands with both bouncers at the same time.

Noah and Emma's jaws dropped, while Kitty looked excited at the sceme.

"They know Owen but not me?" asked Noah, blinking a couple of times.

"Don't worry, you can go inside. Owen is on the guests' list, and if you're with him, you're welcome," said one of the bouncers, winking.

The four entered, Owen waving at them. "Thanks buddies, see ya."

"Hey man!" shouted the bouncer with dreadlocks. "Why didn't you appear in the All-stars season?"

"Because production said I would win too easily," Owen winked, while Noah dragged him.

Both bouncers nodded and waved at him, resuming their job with wide grins.

"I love when I meet fans like them," said Owen chuckling.

Noah muttered something, but Emma hugged him, making him forget about the incident.

And to their surprise, the club was filled with guests. At least 200 people, with many familiar faces among the crowd.

"I thought Katie and Sadie said they would only invite some friends," said Emma, looking at the crowd with wide eyes.

"Hehehe, and we did."

"But it seems we have many friends, and they got some friends with them."

Noah and the others turned to greet Katie and Sadie. The BFFFLs wore identical outfits: a pink mini skirt, a white and black tank top, a pink jacket, and long black and white boots to the thighs.

"Katie and Sadie, you look great," said Kitty hugging them.

"Welcome to our victory party," said Katie raising both arms.

Owen looked around with wide eyes. "Holy Macaroni, you really went all out."

"Hehehe, Geoff like helped us a lot. He's totally a party expert," Sadie winked.

"Yes, and we became closer to him after Sadie began dating Brody," added Katie, elbowing her best friend.

Emma smirked. "Yes, relationships are awesome. Yesterday was our 6-week anniversary, right Nowy?"

"Yes, I can't wait for our two-month anniversary, mon amour," said Noah kissing her hand.

"AWWW, they're so cute," said the BFFFLs at the same time.

Owen nodded. "Yes they are. And how are things going with Brody?"

"Quite well, we're going steady. He's so absolutely romantic and fun," Sadie blushed, making a big smile.

"He's helping Geoff, DJ, and Duncan to get the stage ready," Katie clapped excitedly. "We're preparing a surprise event."

Owen covered his mouth, his eyes sparkling. "Duncan is here!?"

"Wasn't that jerk still in prison?" asked Noah, rolling his eyes.

"No, Duncan was freed 6 months ago. The charges against him were dropped," replied Owen before Katie and Sadie had the chance.

Sadie looked at him with wide eyes. "Wow Owen, that's true. How did you know that?"

"Because I used to visit him at the prison," Owen rubbed his neck, "Hehehe, he really loves cake. He seemed so happy every time I visited him."

"I'm not sure if he was happy about the cake or about someone visiting him," Katie tilted her head. "But you can meet him and ask him about it."

Noah rolled his eyes. "I hope we don't meet him, but knowing my luck, we surely will."

"Oh Nowy don't be so negative. You're with me, so I don't think he'll annoy you," said Emma, hugging his arm.

"I wish that would be true," said Noah, caressing her head. "I guess we will find out. Let's go and enjoy this party."

Owen and Kitty went to the food table to meet Izzy and Eva while Noah and Emma went to the dance floor. The BFFFLs went to greet other guests. They were so happy to meet Owen and Noah. After all they helped them a lot in the race.

Katie and Sadie were talking with the (other) Best Friends. Carrie wore a white dress with an asymmetrical skirt to the ankle on one side and to the knee on the other. Devin wore a white shirt with some buttons open and showing a necklace with the word 'carrie,' black dressing pants, and black dressing shoes.

"And then Katie stopped the car in the middle of the mall and said 'At least we found a parking slot next to the store,'" said Sadie laughing.

The taller BFFFL frowned."That's isn't true… What I said was 'At least we don't have to walk a lot.'"

"Hahaha, I know that feeling. Carrie's also a bad driver," said Devin drying a tear.

"HEY! I'm not a bad driver," said Carrie and Katie at the same time.

Sadie clapped happily. "Wow you're on like the same wavelength."

"That's true!" Katie made a wide smile. "Maybe Carrie can become the third BFFFL."

"That would be awesome," said Carrie chuckling. "But I doubt I can look as cute as you in those dresses."

"AWWW! Carrie you're so kind," said both BFFFLs hugging her.

"WOW, girls, you look really GOOD in those dresses!"

Katie and Sadie turned around, recognizing the loud and beautiful voice immediately.

"LESHAWNA!" said both simultaneously.

"The one and only!" LeShawna hugged both BEFFFLs.

Devin smiled and put his arm across Carrie's shoulder. "Well, while you catch up with your friend, Carrie and I'll go and dance a little. Ok Homie?"

"I would love that," Carrie blushed and smiled at him. "See you later, Katie and Sadie."

"Bye" said Sadie, while she and Katie waved at them.

Katie then turned to face the Sista with a 'tude. "And how have you been? You look awesome!"

LeShawna was dressed in a white one-piece dress with spaghetti straps and her hair in an updo ponytail.

"I have been busy with college, but there was no way I would miss this party. Also I brought you a surprise," said LeShawna making a big grin.

The surprise was dressed in a black tank top, black mini skirt, and black leggings and boots. She wore midnight blue lipstick and shades instead of her usual green ones, but her hair was still the same bob cut in black and teal colors.

"OH my gosh…"

"…GWEN!" said Katie and Sadie running toward her. Jumping and squeeing.

Gwen blushed and frowned. "Don't be so happy. People will think it's been years since we met each other."

"Oh, c'mon it's isn't years but at least 4 months!" said Katie holding Gwen's hand.

"Yes, how have you been? Did you present the admission test for the OCAD?" added Sadie holding Gwen's other hand.

The goth made a small smirk. "Yes, but still haven't received an answer." After saying this, Gwen freed her hands and put her fingers on her ears.

"EEEEEEEE! That's awesome, EEEEEEEEE!" squeed the BFFFLs, making LeShawna wince.

"CALM DOWN girls!" shouted LeShawna, the BFFFL stopping immediately. "Sheesh, It's cool you're happy for Gwen, but you can express that without ruining my poor ears." She then faced Gwen. "And how did you know they were about to start screaming?"

Gwen shrugged. "After filming some streams with them for my blogs I get used to their moments of excitement. It's actually kind of cute."

"Awww Gwen thank you," said both at the same time.

"I already told you what I'm doing. And you? After winning a million, what are you planning to do?" asked the goth, squinting her eyes at them.

Katie and Sadie looked at each other, smiling.

"You first," said both at the same time.

"Don't worry, you first," said both again, now they started frowning.

"Ok I'll go first," both said at the same time, now glaring and pressing their foreheads together. "Ugh make up your mind!"

LeShawna separated them. "Ok, ok. Then let me decide for you. Sadie you first."

"I'm planning to study psychology," said Sadie smiling and blushing. "It seems I had a knack for watching people, and I'm a good listener. Also, I want to help people to be happy."

Katie hugged her, "I think that really fits her! It was that or something to do with children."

LeShawna and Gwen blinked, looking at her with wide eyes.

"Wow, I didn't expect that," said Gwen, still shocked by the news.

"Yes, it's awesome," said Katie smiling. "And I'll study fashion design. Some friends have a fashion blog and help me get the chance for a scholarship."

Sadie hugged her. "And it'll be awesome, Katie had already in mind her 2 first collections. She'll even design a clothing line for pets."

"Hahaha, that's not totally true. It's just an idea," said Katie blushing.

"Well, that wasn't a surprise. Your designs are already great," said Gwen, nodding.

LeShawna made a big grin. "And if you need a model, just call me."

"Wow, LeShawna, you're going to become a model?" said Sadie, her eyes sparkling.

"Hohoho, oh no. I'm studying business. But I have a few modeling gigs, and my Instagram has more than 15000 followers," said the sista with' a tude while posing.

Then they heard some excited screams, and the four were hit by a stream of foam.

"YAY!" shouted the BFFFLs their hair covered in foam.

LeShawna glared at the canon, her hair puffing with the water. "Just let me find who's the funny person shooting that cannon, and they'll learn to not mess with the hair."

"Don't get angry LeShawna," said Katie holding one of her arms.

"Yes, it's just a party. We'll lend you a towel," said Sadie, holding LeShawna's other arm.

The sister calmed down, and Katie brought a towel so she could dry her hair. Gwen meanwhile looked at the foam cannon.

"I don't want to be a killjoy, even if usually that's my role at every party," Gwen chuckled softly. "But didn't you spend too much money in this party?"

Both BFFFLs shook their head.

"We spend some of the prize money, but not more than 10000 dollars," said Katie shrugging.

"The most expensive part was renting the place, but we have some help with the rest of the things," said Sadie nodding.

"The catering was done by Dj's momma company."

"And the sound system was rented from the store where Rock, a friend of us, works,"

"Geoff helped plan the party and got a good price for the lights and the accessories, including the foam cannon."

"And our big surprise for the night didn't want any money."

Katie and Sadie were enumerating everything and speaking quickly, making Gwen and LeShawna smile.

"Hahaha, girls, you're too much. I love how you talk," said LeShawna winking. "You remind me of LeShaniqua and me."

"You should have invited her," said Sadie, making a small smile.

Katie nodded. "Yes, the more, the merrier."

"Maybe next time. But be ready because my cousin really knows how to party," LeShawna danced a little in her place, shaking her hips and shoulders.

"Any time," said Katie and Sadie, both making a small and weird dance move.

Gwen blinked a couple of times, trying to not laugh at her friends' antics.

"Don't expect me to start dancing," the goth chuckled.

"Dancing!?" shouted both BFFFLs.

Katie bowed and began to run. "Sorry we have to go!"

"See you later Gwen, and don't go home without saying goodbye," said Sadie, also bowing and running away.

LeShawna and Gwen looked at them, smiling.

"It doesn't matter how many years pass, they're always the same," said LeShawna, making a small smile.

"Yes, I wish I could be like them," Gwen smiled, then she began to shake her head and wave her hands. "I mean the way they're authentic and honest with themselves. I could never be that bright and happy."

LeShawna chuckled, "I know girl friend, don't worry."

"Let's go and look out for Bridgette. I don't know why she didn't come with us," said Gwen shrugging.

"She went to look for someone, don't worry if we can't find her we just need to find Geoff and start flirting with him. That always attracts her," LeShawna winked and smirked.

"Hahaha you're so evil," said Gwen laughing.

LeShawna shrugged, "I prefer to think I'm practical."

On the stage were Rock, Spud, and another two people dressed like them. Everyone had purple shirts with a horned frog logo and black pants.

"Hello Canada! Are you having fun!?" shouted Rock and then played a short melody with his guitar.

"YESSSSS!" shouted the guests.

Rock finished his small guitar solo. "Well, then prepare to have an even awesomer time. We're Devil Frogs and we have some songs prepared for you. So be ready to ROCK," The blond guy waited for a moment for the public to cheer and then continued. "This song is called "WAAEEE-YEAH!"

The Devil Frogs began to play on the stage with the public cheering. While the main act was getting ready backstage.

"We're so sorry," said Katie, joining her hands.

"Yes, we forgot we needed to help you prepare the performance," said Sadie, apologizing with the same gesture.

"Don't worry girls. We have everything under control," said Cody winking. He was wearing a red shirt, green pants, and a black fur jacket

Harold raised a finger. "Cody is right, remember, there is an immeasurable distance between late and too late." He wore black pants, a black shirt, and a brown fur jacket.

"Hahaha, that's cool. It's one of those weird Japanese quotes?" asked Justin while looking at a mirror. He was wearing black pants and a red jacket.

"Gosh Justin, you can't say those kinds of things even as a joke!" Harold shocked his head. "First of all Japanese proverbs aren't weird. They're the summary of years of folk wisdom. And second that quote isn't Japanese is from Og Mandino."

Trent stood between them, making his classic smile. "Guys, I know everyone is nervous because it's been some time since we performed together, but let's try to keep it civil, ok? So Justin, please don't

throw jabs at Harold." He was wearing black pants,a black American jacket, and a white shirt.

"Yes Dad," said Justin in a snarky tone, rolling his eyes.

"That's my boy!" replied Trent winking.

Katie was clapping happily. "I can't believe the Drama Brothers will play again for our party."

"Why are you surprised? You asked us to perform," Cody scratched his head.

"Because we didn't expect you would accept," said Sadie, folding her arms and nodding.

"What? Girls you were basically our managers during the Drama Brothers last weeks. Don't talk as if we're strangers," said Trent, who picked up his guitar.

Harold smirked and adjusted his glasses. "As Trent said we're friends who shared woes and happiness. Even if we disbanded, we can perform at least once more time for you."

"And also you're paying us 1000 dollars. There is no way we could reject that," Justin made finger pistols and winked.

"What!?" Cody looked at him with wide eyes. "Justin, you accepted the money?"

Katie shook her head and waved her hands. "NO! None of you accepted the money we offered."

"Hehehe, that's what I wanted to know," Justin's smile sparkled. "Also Cody, I'm disappointed in you. Not only do you believe I was so petty to take Kat and Sad money, but you're also wearing a fur jacket."

Cody blushed. "I never doubt you. I was just surprised you would do something like that, and about the jacket…"

"I'll take for here my friend," said Harold putting a hand in front of Cody. "These fur jackets are made from natural plant fibers with a process I'm developing which is less toxic than faux fur production that depends on acryl…."

"I understand. These are special faux fur. All those weird words are giving me a headache," said Justin, covering his ears.

Everyone sans Harold laughed.

"Well, it seems everything is ready. Once the devil frogs finish warming the public, it'll be our turn," said Trent, trying to change the subject.

Harold looked at his phone. "It seems my LeShawna is already here."

"Yes we just talked with her. She looks gorgeous tonight," Sadie elbowed him, making a big smile.

"Yes, she was with Gwen, so they must be among the crowd waiting right now," Katie winked.

"GWEN IS HERE!?" shouted Trent and Cody at the same time.

Katie smirked. "Of course, she's one of our best friends."

"Ooohhh! Cody's reaction was as expected, but Trent, that was an interesting reaction," said Sadie elbowing him.

"Not so much. He started to talk with Gwen again three months ago," said Cody, still flustered about Gwen being at the party.

"T-That was a secret. How did you find out?" asked Trent, blushing and scratching his head.

Everyone stood silent, looking at Cody with wide eyes.

"Cody, are you stalking Gwen!?" asked both BFFFLs, their voices trembling.

"Bro, that's so shameful coming from a great person like you. Please tell me it's a lie," Harold said solemnly.

"O-Of course is a lie, a misunderstanding!" Cody's face was red like a tomato. "I heard it from Sierra, who likes to keep tabs on everyone so she can keep her blogs updated. You can ask her later."

Justin chuckled. "So you and the goth girl again, eh Trent? I didn't see that coming."

"I-It's not what you think," Trent looked around like a deer in headlights. "It just happened! We met by coincidence in an art exposition, then took a coffee together and began to exchange messages again. It's nothing weird."

"Oh my gosh Sadie, Trent and Gwen are coming back together," said Katie in an excited tone.

"If you also get a boyfriend, we can go on triple dates!" said Sadie in the same tone.

Katie's face beamed. "I always wanted to go on a triple date!"

"EEEEEEE!" both began to squee.

"But we-" Trent tried to explain himself when Harold put a hand on his shoulder.

"It's useless. In their mind, you're already back together. So it's useless trying to tell them otherwise right now," said Harold, shaking his head.

The crowd began to cheer loudly, and Rock's voice could be heard through the loudspeakers.

"Thank you, you're wonderful. We're Devil Frogs and hope to see you again soon. Now wait a moment for our friends to take the scenario," said Rock in an excited but tired tone. "Have an awesome night."

Rock, Spud, and the rest of the devil frogs went backstage. They were smiling and sweating.

"That was so awesome! We need to do it again," said Spud, making a big grin. "By the way, where are we?"

The drummer began to explain Spud what was happening as Rock talked with the Drama Brothers.

"They're an awesome crowd. We let them ready for you, Dwiiiiiing," said Rock, making some air guitar and guitar sounds.

"Ok Drama Brothers, Let it be!" said Harold raising a hand and pointing to the roof.

Justin rolled his eyes. "That didn't make any sense."

"It does, but don't worry about it," Trent winked. "We're going girls. Wish us luck."

"Good luck Drama Brothers," shouted Katie and Sadie, waving at them.

Cody sent some kisses to them. "Just enjoy the performance!"

Katie and Sadie watched them go into the stage, the public cheering for their friends. This was the best victory party ever.

While the Drama Brothers were performing, Katie and Sadie went to meet with the rest of the party staff.

"SADIE!" shouted Brody, wearing navy blue bunker pants and a pink closed shirt. He ran and hugged his girlfriend. "I miss you girl."

Sadie kissed him on the cheek."I also missed you, Brody. How is everything going?"

"Quite well, there is still food left. I think this was a great success," said DJ making a proud smile. He was wearing black pants, a tan colored shirt, and a white bandana covering his head.

"That's awesome. Thanks DJ," said Katie clapping happily.

Duncan smirked. "You also did a lot of the hard work, I can't believe you convinced Elvis and the others to perform together again. How did you do it?" The delinquent was wearing black jeans, a black vest, and a white t-shirt. He had a classic green mohawk, but his hair's roots were black.

"Don't underestimate our girly charm," said Sadie winking.

"WHAT!? My Angelita, did you use your girly charm on another man?" asked Brody, frowning sadly.

Sadie blushed. "Of course not. It was a joke. We just talked with them and they accepted, for the old times."

"Hahaha, Brody don't be jealous. You need to trust your lady, just like me," Geoff made a proud smile. He wore jeans, his open pink shirt, and his signature cowboy hat.

"Talking about Malibu, where did you leave her?" asked Duncan, smirking. "And please don't call her. We're having such a great time."

Geoff frowned. "She went to find a friend, and don't say that, dude. I don't understand why you and Bridge are on such bad terms."

"I think we just have a bad chemistry," Duncan shrugged. "Like oil and water."

"Maybe it's because you eliminated her in Island?" asked Sadie, tilting her head.

Katie nodded. "Or because she's a kind vegetarian and you're a carnivorous bully."

"Yes, both of those make sense," Duncan stuck his tongue out and showed his tongue's piercing. "I'll go to look for some beer. Someone wants anything?"

"I want that this night lasts forever," said Katie smiling. "All our friends are here and we're having a great time. I wish we could enjoy this moment all the time."

Duncan winced. "That was extremely cheesy, so I'll get you a beer."

"The drama brothers are about to perform Here comes the moon. Brody can we dance, please?" asked Sadie, her eyes sparkling.

"Of course, you just need to say it," said Brody, running with her to the dancing floor.

Katie just looked at them with envy.

"If you want, we can dance together," DJ made a big smile. "I may not look like it, but I can dance quite well."

"Thanks DJ, you're so sweet," said Katie holding his hand. Together they walked to the dance floor, leaving Geoff behind.

"Oh man! I wish Bridge come fast," said Geoff, watching his phone.

The song was catchy and positive, one of the Drama Brothers' ballads. It was slow but rhythmic and easy to dance

"I didn't know you were such a great dancer," said Sadie, following Brody smooth and quick moves.

"I have many skills! Dancing, surfing, swimming, I can even juggle," said Brody winking. "And for you, I can learn new skills, just ask me, and I'll do it." He pouted, "Well, maybe not do it, but I promise at least to try."

Sadie covered her mouth. "Oh Brody, you're so cool." She then frowned. "I'll miss you."

"My cachito de cielo, don't worry. Vancouver isn't that far away. And once I graduate, I'll come to live in Toronto. Just wait for me one year."

"Are you really doing that for me?" asked Sadie, almost crying.

"Of course, you're my girl," Brody blushed. "So don't cry. I love your smile."

Sadie hugged him. This was like a dream. She not only found a sweet boyfriend, she also won a million dollars and learned she was also great in her own way. For Sadie, the race helped her to grow in so many aspects.

Some couples away, Katie was dancing with DJ.

"You're such a great dancer," said Katie in an excited tone.

"Hehehe, don't underestimate 4 years of gymnastics," DJ smiled proudly.

Katie also made a big smile. "You can cook, dance, and are big and strong. You're so awesome. I wish I was like you."

"What are you saying? You're kind, can cook, love animals, and had the courage to go into that crazy show. You're more awesome than me," said DJ, nodding.

"I'm not that good, I got easily obsessed with winning, and sometimes I think I'm not good enough," Katie, frowned, looking at the floor.

Dj held her shoulder tighter. "I don't think so. If you realize your mistakes, you can mend them. And I'm not sure why you say you're not good enough. You're a really awesome girl, don't sell yourself cheap."

Katie's jaw dropped and then showed the most beautiful smile. She hugged him. DJ was right. Katie wasn't the same person who was obsessed with fame and winning. During the race, she found that there were things more important than fame or victory. The race helped her find herself and realize what was really important.

"Thanks DJ."

"No problem girl, whenever you need it."

The night continued, there were more encounters and unexpected surprises during this night, but for Katie and Sadie the dance was the moment that helped them realize how much the race had changed them. Sadie learned to trust herself and that she and Katie were equals. And Katie exorcised the demons of her early elimination on Total drama and learned that there are things more important than fame. They may have won a million dollars, but the real victory in the race was that their friendship became stronger than ever, and that was much more valuable than the money.

And that's the end. Congratulations to the BFFFLS. The race was eventful and filled with drama, but in the end, they not only won the prize but also strengthened their friendship.

Which ending is your favorite? I don't like to choose a canon ending for my stories so you take the one you prefer. And yes some things are really different between the ending, because it would be too boring if with and without money all remained the same ;).

Teams eliminated: Father and Son, Tennis rivals, Geniuses, The Larpers, Vegetarians, fashion bloggers, Mother and daughter, Adversity twins, Rockers, Daters, Best friends, Goths, BFFFL(returned), The Sisters, Surfer Dudes, Ice Dancers, Police cadets, Reality TV Pros.

Now before closing let me answer the last week reviews:
