I'm so sorry for the delay. And in advance for an absolute short and crappy chapter. And for that, I won't give any shout puts.
"Last time on Total Drama Bootcamp," Chef began. "Final six. After sixteen frustrating long eliminations and challenges, we're were down to only six. And to celebrate, we brought back one of a classic challenges; the Triarmed Triathlon. The pairings were matched pretty well by Micky although all three pairs were up for elimination; excluding the wonderful Viola who wooed us enough to keep into the final five. Alas, it was Liv. Humble and feisty Liv who left the competition in spite of Cassie finding another immunity idol."
Chef walked further onto the docks.
"Find out some more juicy drama when we return on Total. Drama! BOOTCAMP!"
Dear Mum and Dad I'm doing fine,
Micky is standing on Chef's back as he does push ups.
You guys are on my mind.
Peter is hugging a very scared Cole underwater.
You asked me what I wanted to be,
Danika is rowing a boat with Zack.
And I think the answer is plain to see.
In the woods, Viola is petting a rat whilst Johan runs away from one.
I wanna be famous.
Liv blushes and Nikki gasps in excitement.
I wanna live close to the sun,
Jessica and Avery are rowing on a canoe when they fall down the waterfall.
Well pack your bags 'cause I already won.
Chad is complaining to Alexis on a log when Jessica and Avery push them off accidentally.
Everything to prove nothing in my way,
Betsy is swinging on a vine and crashes into the confessional tent where Aureceli walks out.
I'll get there one day.
Because I wanna be famous.
Cheyenne is in the kitchen confused and Mai and Shan are smiling on the seats.
Na na na na na na
Na na na na na na na na na.
Vincent is flexing his muscles on the beach as Julian glares at him.
Yeah, I wanna be
Several sea animals are shown on the water surface.
I wanna be
Fang sees a red feathered bird and chases it.
I wanna be famous
A seagull watches as the red feathered bird flies away.
I wanna be
Mason is on the pier showing off his basketball skills when a log lands on his head.
I wanna be
The basketball flies into the air when it's dissolves into the sun.
I wanna be famous.
Lorcan is telling a joke and Cassidy laughs and then Chef stands in front with his sadistic grin.
*whistle*
Everyone whistles around the campfire. Before the title lights flicker out, a black shadow is seem holding an inanimate object at Cassie.
Common Room
Viola, Nikki, Johan and Avery sat calmly together at the table. The stone was placed in front of the table, and they were ready for anything to happen.
"Where's Julian when you need him," Nikki groaned. She then realised what she had said. "I mean Terra."
Soon, the cloned figurine of Cassie appeared from a cloud of sand and looked at the stone with pure excitement.
"You've done it?" She gasped. She looked at the others with excitement. "You guys actually got the stone back?"
Everyone nodded as Terra had a slight breakdown. Viola was seemingly a little off about it.
*Viola's Confession*
"She seems emotional."
*End Confessional*
The clone picked up the stone and clutched it to her heart.
"The time is near. Cassie will return to normal," she smiled. "Just not yet."
The four looked at each other before smiling foolishly. They gave out high fives and hugged each other. They had prevented Cassie from being a villain.
"Can all contestants meet at the docks. Again!" Chef announced, over the intercom. The four smiled knowingly and walked over to the docks.
Docks
"So, what's our challenge?" Viola asked, standing in a red two-piece. Everyone else was in their swimsuits as Chef walked onto the pier in his pink and blue floral board shorts with a floating ring around his waist.
Micky stood beside him in an elegant turquoise tie up.
"This whole challenge will feature the water, the cliff and boats!" Micky explained. "Your challenge is to jump off the cliff and dive into the water." She pointed to the cliff.
"Then, you'll need to swim across the lake to the docks here, and choose a boat or some sort of floatations device." She explained, pointing the flags guiding the way to the pier.
"Afterwards, you'll race around the island and the first camper back here after completing the challenge wins immunity; and the last will be eliminated." Everyone seemed shocked at this new concept.
*Johan's Confession*
"Sudden deaths now." He is sitting in his swimsuit; plain black swimming trunks.
*End Confessional*
Cliff
The five made their way to the cliff and looked over the edge. Cassie seemed a little off.
"Jumping. Without a harness?" She stuttered. Viola smirked.
"Did you develop a new fear, Cassie Lassie?" Viola mocked. The tennis player scowled and looked over the edge.
"It's just scary," she mumbled. Micky walked up from behind them silently.
"Begin!" She shouted, blowing an air horn. Johan and Viola immediately jumped into the water whilst Nikki hesitantly ran off the edge. Avery looked over the edge in concern whilst Cassie stood behind him, trying not to look down.
Avery noticed, took in a breath, and dove down into the water, leaving Cassie alone by the cliff. She growled and jumped in after him determined not to lose. She hit her water surface hard just as she saw Avery swimming away.
Annoyed, she began swimming as fast as her tennis arms would take her.
*Cassie's Confession*
"I only jumped off that cliff because there's one thing more scarier than cliffs. And that elimination!" She shuddered. "It's never fun!"
*End Confessional*
Avery was just ahead of Cassie, trying to swim ahead of her so she wouldn't overtake him and ultimately eliminate him. He saw Nikki who was struggling to keep up with the more athletic Johan and Viola.
Her strokes became sloppy and her breathing heavy as she tried swimming across the lake. Avery caught up to her and held out a hand.
"There's *pant* no use! I'll *wheeze* slow you down!" Nikki gasped. Avery sighed, disappointed that he couldn't help her, but continued swimming forth. Nikki tried pulling the water towards her, so she could move faster and luckily for her, her strokes became stronger.
She caught up to Avery who was struggling to swim a little as she had noticed before.
"You can do it! It's just about a quarter of the length away!" She managed to say without breaking her breaths. Avery nodded his head and continued forth.
*Avery's Confession*
"All I wanna do is beat Cassie!" Avery vowed. "Then, I won't mind getting eliminated next!"
*End Confessional*
Viola and Johan reached the boats first, both teens scrambling to get onto their boats. Viola scored herself a motorised boat, which she quickly lit into ignition whilst Johan got onto a jet-ski. Viola smirked, and began powering away at the boat with Johan quick to follow.
Nikki was next to reach the dock, grabbing two paddles and a canoe. With the adrenaline energy she still had, she began rowing her way around.
Avery climbed onto the docks, shaking the water out of his clothes and hair when Cassie jumped onto the dock and jumped onto the life boat. She smirked and looked back at Avery.
"See ya later, Lamery!" She taunted, as Avery climbed onto the log raft. Even in last place, he still kept his determination. As Cassie used her hands as paddles, Avery untied one log and began using it as a paddle.
Cassie noticed and growled, tugging harder and faster at the water, trying to get away from him. Barely, she missed a flying toaster.
"What was that?" She demanded, looking up. She saw Zack smirking at her with a crate of other objects.
"It's our job to try and make this difficult!" Zack teased. "Now slow down so I can hit you!" He threw a tennis racket and it landed beside her. Cassie smirked, and clutched the end of the tennis racket tightly.
"Did you forget my speciality was tennis?" She taunted as Zack threw a tennis ball, only for Cassie to take a swing at it. She hit it over the ocean, and Zack chuckled.
"That did nothing," he smirked before throwing a brick at her. Avery, who was only a little in behind of her before, was now powering ahead, the water rocking Cassie's boat. She growled and began powering towards him.
Out of Johan, Nikki and Viola, it was Johan who was leading, but barely ahead of Viola. Nikki was trailing behind the both of them, a good few metres away. She kept rowing, as Viola and Johan would continue steering.
Like a rocket, Avery's raft flew into the air, dismantling and he was heading straight for the sky. That caught everyone's attention.
"Is he okay?" Nikki asked. Viola shot her a look and Nikki whimpered as Avery came flying back down, screaming his head off. He landed in Johan's boat and groaned in pain. Johan rushed to his aid, trying to help him up, giving Viola a lead.
Behind them, Nikki and Cassie were both storming forth, although Johan was quicker and managed to get Avery seated behind him and revved his engine alive. Viola saw something coming at her from the corner of her eye and quickly shifted to the left as a cannonball landed in her space she had just dodged. Gulping, she noticed that the others were coming closer, so she turned around and powered ahead.
Chef and Micky were waiting by the finish line, both doing their own little thing. It was when the echo of a roaring engine shot them up to look around. All four water vehicles began approaching the docks and the interns all stood behind the hosts, cheering loudly.
"You can do it Nikki!" Julian cheered.
"Come on, Avery!" Danika roared.
"Don't give up now, buddy!" Zack shouted.
"Let's go Cassie!" Vincent chuckled. The others shot him a crooked look before they watched the challenge once again. All four were lined up as they began speeding towards the dock. Lucky for Cassie, her momentum has sped her forth so she could continue forth.
As they all zoned in, Nikki's paddle snapped and her boat drifted towards the left. Viola gasped, but as she did, she stomped on the accelerator and managed to come in first.
"NIKKI!" She shouted but watched the sequence of events, as if it was slow motion. Johan and Avery were both leading over Cassie and Nikki, Avery clinging onto Johan as they did, but behind them, Cassie was smirking and grabbed her tennis racket and a tennis ball. She hit the tennis ball at a powerful speed at the back of Johan's head.
In a slow motion, Avery unknowingly arched his head up to look out and the tennis ball knocked him in the head, just as Johan crossed the line.
The tennis player gasped and began paddling again, but was oblivious to Nikki who had been jumping from rock to rock to reach the end. Just as the both of them were less than a meter away, Nikki jumped up her hair flying back and landed on the edge of Cassie's boat, confusing the tennis player, and sprung forth, pushing Cassie's raft back and the hopeless romantic crossed the line of the finish, meaning one thing.
Cassie was eliminated.
End of Challenge
Cassie was speechless as she drifted away further into the lake. "You mean, I lost?" She stuttered. Nikki smirked and waved goodbye from the pier. Cassie growled and stood up.
"No! This isn't possible!" She growled, clenching her hand into a fist. The remaining four contestants stood at the end of the pier waving a mocking goodbye to the tennis player who had went adrift.
From the corner of the island, Terra saw Cassie, and also waved. The vicious double bear her teeth but gasped as the clone faded out of light. Cassie felt something unruly in her stomach, before she coughed up something black and gooey.
In her mind, something happened.
...
...
...
"Where am I?" Cassie asked herself. From the shadows of her mind, Terra stepped out holding a white light. She smiled at Cassie who in return growled.
"This is Cassie's mind," Terra chuckled before she motioned to her hands. "And this is her hope!"
That's when Cassie began changing. Her hair turned a pitch black, her skin an unruly dark green colour and her eyes a throbbing red colour. She looked at Terra with a hated expression.
"What did you do?" She demanded angrily. Terra smirked and folded her arms.
"The usual, just ridding the evil entity from my host's body!"
"You're not part of Cassie either!" The green thing growled. Terra shrugged.
"Doesn't mean I can't did you of her!" Terra chuckled until, uh, let's call her Caddie, pounced on her and tackled the stone named girl to the ground and hissed. Terra wrapped her hands around Caddie's wrists and rolled them over, holding her down.
Caddie growled and bit into Terra's hand, causing the stone to withdraw her hand in pain and the witch to attack her. Caddie snapped her fang-like teeth and Terra whimpered. The two ended up rolling towards the 'exit' and continued to pounce and attack one another.
In a turn of events, Terra was hanging by the edge and looked up at Caddie who continued to smirk. She held her head up high and bear her teeth once again before she stomped on Terra's hand. Instead of releasing her grip, Terra curved her hand around Caddie's ankle and dragged the two girls through the exit together.
Forever leaving Cassie alone.
Avery elbowed Nikki. "Uh, what's up with her?" He whispered, pointing to Cassie who had just passed out on her boat. Nikki shrugged until she saw something odd come from Cassie's heart.
An amber stone erupted from her chest and the sludge wrapped itself around it, before the two fell deep into the water.
"And that's the end of that," Chef grumbled before walking away. Viola smiled gleefully to herself before she followed him away.
*Viola's Confession*
"This is the first challenge I have won!" She smiled. "This feels amazing!" She paused. "And, oh my god Cassie is gone!"
*Johan's Confession*
"Who knew that Cassie could have been that hostile," he sighed.
*Avery's Confession*
"Final four!" He fist pumped. "It feels amazing!"
*Nikki's Confession*
She sighed. "Now that Cassie's gone, I should feel better." She looked down. "But something doesn't feel right.."
*End Confessional*
Jury
Cassie woke up tied to a post. "Uh, guys?" She called out. No reply in the midst of darkness.
"Hello?" She called out. "Anybody?"
She sighed and began whistling the tune of the theme song.

Eliminated: Vincent (intern), Cassie (returns), Peter, Betsy, Mai, Danika (intern), Mason, Julian (intern), Lorcan, Zack (intern), Shan, Aureceli, Chad, Jessica, Alexis, Cheyenne, Cole, Liv and Cassie

Again, sorry for the short scrappy chapter. But that means, the next one will be better :/
