Chapter 5- Thats a Rap!
"LAST TIME ON TOTAL DRAMA: The remaining 11 campers had to pull off a 2 lap race around the island! With Isaac coming in first, you'd thin the Kanines would come in first, right? Well, you'd be wrong. It turns out Thomas was ahead of Amanda and won it for the Vipers. So, a ceremony later, it seemed that Cooper would go home facing 11th in the official run for a million big ones. But a certain SOMEONE had something to do with it…
Will anybody find out or no? With 10 campers, you'd think so, right? Well, you'll just have to find out on this episode of Total...Drama...ISLAND!"
-theme song plays-
(Vipers Cabin(Boys)
The time was 5:00 am, and James was up for 3 hours now, and he thought it was actually pretty experiencing. You could see the dusk light, what happens in the night out the window(even though it was mostly bunnies and bears). But he did see a..."montage" between two bunnies.
"Blegh, that was a disgusting sight." James shuddered. "Anyways..." He trailed off as he saw microphones outside. "Huh…? Must be part of the challenge...but we already did a singing challenge, didn't we?" James was left scratching his head. "Oh, well. Guess ill find out when it comes around." He realized he was in a cabin full of sleeping people. "I'm gonna go clear my head." He said as he walked out of the cabin to go out on a walk.
It was at that moment that Layne woke up, looked around, and noticed something was missing... "Where's my 3DS at?" Layne asked himself, oblivious to James leaving.
(Vipers Cabin(Girls)
Scarlett was sound asleep. I think it'd be best not to disturb her. The running was exhausting, ya know?
Best to move along, eh?
(Kanines Cabin(Boys)
Isaac felt...in a word...lonely. The only other camper he could talk to before the challenges was gone. Sure, he can talk to Lilly. But that opportunities only available later in the day, when everyone is up and moving for the challenge.
"Welp, guess I better get up and ready for the challenge today..." He got up from his bed and moped over to his day clothes. "Guess I gotta move on from yesterday." He stretched his arms out. "I wonder if my legs are the only ones that don't hurt..." Isaac wondered to himself as he wandered out the cabin to walk around.
(Kanines Cabin(Girls)
Emily was awake, laying in her bed. She was bored out of her GD mind. She needed something to do, ANYTHING to do.
"Whens the challenge gonna come up?!" Emily wondered to herself.
Just then, as if on cue, Chris voice came booming over the island with the echo of a cannon blast. (stupid megaphones. Stupid Chris.)
"Campers! Report to the talent contest location within 30 minutes or its a double elimination!" Chris's voice echoed.
Emily got up and ran to get her usual clothes on. "Gives me something to do, I guess!" She said to herself. "Come on, guys, wake up. We gotta get to the talent contest place."
The other girls woke up, rubbing their eyes and yawning.
"Do we have to?" Jacqueline asked, half awake.
"You can stay here, I guess...If you want to get eliminated! Come on!" Emily said with a straight tone of voice.
That made Jacqueline jump out of her bed. "Lets go."
-35 unfortunate minutes later-
All the campers had gotten there, hoping they weren't too late.
"Campers...i said 30 minutes. You took 35. That means...DOUBLE ELIMINATION TONIGHT! That'll make things interesting."
-Confessional(Layne)-
"FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK! FUCK WITH A CHALKBOARD IN HELL TWO TIMES DAMN IT! GAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!
-Confessional End(Layne)-
Isaac let out a sigh. "Tell us the challenge, McLean. You already have us here."
"Fine. I wanted to gloat a bit more but so be it. The challenge today is a...rap contest!"
Markus's jaw dropped. "Please don't tell me you expect us to have these lyrics thought up in the blink of an eye?!"
"No. You will all have an hour to come up with lyrics. But if I were you,. Id start since the time starts now! Happy thinking!" And with that, Chris went to a beach chair and relaxed for the time passing.
"And...one more thing. The match-ups are Lilly vs James, Isaac vs Markus, Emily vs Scarlett, Amanda vs Thomas, and Jacqueline vs Layne...If we make it through all 5. Me and Chef will judge. Its best of 3. If 3 members of the Kanines win the battle in score, they win the challenge. And vice versa with the Vipers as well."
"Is their any point to the match-ups? Or are they just a random pick?" Lilly asked.
"Categories. Now get to thinking, you've wasted 3 minutes already!"
-show obvious montage of campers thinking of lyrics- (You thought id skip all the chatter? Naw, lets see what their thinking about the other people, eh?)
James was probably having the toughest time of all. "I've never performed a rap in all my life. My cousins pretty decent at rapping but that's about as good as it gets! I'm gonna lose this for the team and then I'm gonna go home!" He felt his eye twitch. "Cannot get too angry. Especially not at Lilly. Lilly doesn't deserve my rage." He took deep breaths. "Back to my unsuccessful thinking montage." He said as he grabbed his pencil and strained his brain some more.
Isaac was having a tricky time, as James was as well. "I don't know what to say about Markus. He's one of the most optimistic people I've ever met. Nicer than the people I'm forced to live with." Isaac looked around the sky. "This is even trickier than trying to find the courage to say that I like Lilly..."
Unbeknownst to him, though, Lilly was walking near him when he said that, and wasnt sure whether to be happy or upset. But was mostly happy.
-Confessional(Lilly)-
"Don't get me wrong, Isaac is one of the coolest people I've met, but my other boyfriend kinda dumped me for a really dumb reason. He believed I cared for the animals more than I cared for him. He's a big meanie." "And for that reason, I've been afraid to get into another relationship. She made a frowny face at the camera. "But that doesn't mean I'm not excited about what Isaac said, though. I think he might ask me at the merge...Yay!"
-Confessional End(Lilly)-
Layne wasn't having a lot of trouble though. There were LOTS of disses that happen in video games daily. They'd never know that they came from a Mario game or a Sonic game or maybe a GTA game. It'd be epic. No trouble at all!
-one hour later-
"And...time! Lets hear the first match ups lyrics, because the first matchup is…"
A wheel came up with the matchups taped on them. And it landed on…
Thomas vs Amanda.
"Hopefully, this is good enough..." Thomas muttered to himself.
Amanda took in a deep breath. "Lets do this..."
"One verse, 8 lines is the max. No exceptions. Whenever you're ready, guys."
Thomas decided to start off the battle.
"The challenge, got you stuck in the rap attack.
You try to flee but you got stopped by a backhand.
No question, I send your ass back home, right to the present
Your whole frame is shaking and sweating, how ya feelin'?
Thomas being honest, gonna win the fight.
Attempting to diss me is gonna be your biggest strife.
Girl, your sisters got cancer, and I feel for your family.
But you being a bitch? Now that's a pure tragedy."
With Thomas's verse out of the way, Amanda could start her verse.
"A man like you would never bring me down.
Your entire handsome act is you being a clown.
You're attractive, yes, I'll give that to you.
But don't think that looks are gonna make me lose.
I can bring you up, or put you down.
Make a smile, or make a frown.
Dealing with a man, who is no doubt a hack.
And I've just finished my dissing attack."
With both the verses done, Chris and Chef found it tough to decide who the winner was out of the two.
Chris chose Thomas to win, while Chef decided Amanda won the match up.
So only one way could settle it...ROCK...PAPER...SCISSORS.
Chris threw rock, while Chef threw a paper.
"And Amanda wins, I guess." Said Chef somewhat happy. "You may go back to the teams you are in."
Amanda and Thomas responded and went back to their teams.
Jacqueline went up and congratulated her. "Way to go, Amanda!" she cheered.
Amanda let out a chuckle. "Thanks, Jackie. Never won a "tiebreaker" BEFORE."
Isaac smirked. "Well, be happy you did. That means we're closer to being safe while THEY send two people home tonight."
Lilly let out a sigh of relief. "I really hope we can win this thing. Cooper shouldn't have gone home, y'know?"
Amanda gulped and pretended to agree. "Right. It really is a shame."
-Confessional(Amanda)-
"Why did I have to switch the votes?! I should have just let the voting take its course. I shouldn't even be here. I was supposed to go home last night...ME." She let out a groan. She stopped the urge to cry and looked at the camera. "But its for her. I love you, Emma. And I know i'm doing anything and everything to protect you. And I hope you know that too."
-End Confessional-
"Next matchup is..."
The wheel span and span and span...span…..and span…
Until it landed on Emily vs Scarlett.
Emily and Scarlett stepped up to the mic to have a go.
"Same rules as last time. Whenever you're ready."
Scarlett decided to start.
"So you wanna step to 'Mo'?
The one that's got the flow?
You're the one that'll be sorry.
And i'll just be here, throwing a party.
You couldn't rap worth shit,
your lyrics are worthless.
I'm a teen that's suffered much,
so what makes you any different from the bunch?"
Emily went to the mic after Scarlett was done.
"All I wanted was intelligence,
But you're just giving negligence.
You're giving me a migraine,
and that only happens to people with a brain.
You dont wanna fight, cause then you'll never see the light.
You're being loud as hell, and that's just not right.
And what makes me any different from the bunch,
is that I know how to make opponents 'crunch'."
(And for emphasis, Emily cracked a walnut in two when she said crunch. Pretty kewl, huh?)
The battle was a tough decision. They might be just teenagers, but they can make a half good rap.
"Im gonna have to go with...Emily." Cef explained nonchalantly.
"Me too. The walnut crush was a clincher." Chris said.
Emily walked over to her team, as Scarlett did the same.
"Thats 2-0 Kanines! Will the Vipers be able to come back? We can only wait and see! Next match up is…
The wheel span(x17) until it landed on…
Isaac vs Markus.
"Lets do this thing." Isaac said to himself quietly.
"Time to give it my all!" Markus said in his mind.
"Same rules as the others. Whenever you're ready, guys."
Markus went to go up first.
"Im gonna get it straight,
Gonna diss you to your fate.
Take a break, kid, you've been running to quick.
Like myself, my rhymes are slick.
Just let me relax, I dislike the work.
And lets face it, if you rap? You'll make your brain hurt.
I can see you stressed, and just so you know?
My raps have been as cold as the snow."
Markus's team was giving approving nods behind his back, which left him wondering.
"What the hell are they thinking about me? Hopefully its nothing bad, right?" Markus thought to himself.
Isaac took that as his cue to step up his game and rap. Even though...he's never rapped in his life.
"It's not lame that my aim's here to tell you the truth,
I'll hit it out of the park, like my name's Babe Ruth.
I'm gonna own this rap,
and I'm gonna make you snap.
You want to win, but I won from the begin.
You're so lame, that's your only fame.
I'm fragile, agile, rarely cross, nevertheless,
you better go, cause I just stole the show." (Thanks Guest for the helpful raps! :D)
Chris looked at Chef, and Chef looked at Chris. They both gave a nod and both said "Markus."
Markus walked back to his team joyfully, while Isaac gave off a shrug and walked to his team.
"Damn it. I just gave them a point." Isaac said while he went over to his team.
"Don't fret, dude." Emily assured. "You did your best." She looked at the other team. "Besides, we have the score advantage." She patted him on the back. "We shouldn't worry too much about it."
"But what if they score a point next time?" Lilly asked Emily.
"Well...then we panic." Emily said with a small chuckle after wards. "But that shouldn't come to us. Be confident we'll win this."
Back with Chris, we looked at the camera, smiling.
"The Vipers finally score a point, but the Kanines still have the lead. They all have that double elimination tonight on their minds is what I'd say! Score is 2-1 Kanines. Can they pull off the win in the next battle?"
Witht hat being said, Chef spun the wheel...and then it landed on Liily vs James.
James and Lilly both had one word stuck in their minds. And the word was...

"Fuck."
"Whenever you guys are ready." Chris told the two people.
James went to the mic and began.
"I'm angry, I'm enraged
Keepin' my anger caged
All I wanted was to be chill
But now i want blood to spill
And to afflict pain, with bottles and chains,
I tell you this anger has left me insane!
So if want to stay alive, take a step back,
Because I don't even know when i'll attack..." (Thanks, so hows life. You helped my brain get through this. :) ) [1]
Lilly took that to step up and try her best. [2]
"Theres no need to yell,
You're not getting blamed.
No need to be afraid,
We all feel bad, even though we don't like pain.
I dont wanna rap and I dont wanna fight,
I just wanna sleep in a warm bed tonight.
I'm sorry if I didnt provide a challenge.
But I hope you got the message that i've sent."
And with those words being finished, Lilly set the mic down.
Chris and Chef both took their mics and both said 'Lilly'.
"Truth be told, girl." Chef said. "And you know what that means, Chris." He said with a smirk.
"Yep!" He turned to the Kanines. "You guys win! Congrats on avoiding elimination tonight! As for the Vipers..."
He turned to the opposing team.
"Get ready to vote off TWO people tonight!" Chris said, ;laughing evilly. "Oh, tonight will be interesting, that's for sure." He stopped laughing. "You have two hours. Ciao!" He said and with that, he and Chef walked off to the ceremony location to wait until the time arrived.
-with Layne-
"This bites..." He said while walking through the forest-y areas of the island. "If only I had some help..." He then tripped over a rock-like figure. "FUCK, THAT FUCKING HURTS." He said as he held his ankle. Then he stopped wincing and noticed it was no ordinary rock. It was an invincibility idol.
"This is just what the doctor ordered!" Layne said triumphantly. "This could be a game-changer." He said as he walked towards the Vipers male cabin. He stuffed the idol in his pocket before he walked inside the cabin where the others were.
-with Scarlett-
"This has got to be the most scariest elimination process yet. 2 of us are gonna go home! I hate this! I guess I just gotta see how it goes before I get all worked up on the subject..." She said with a sigh.
"But I am doing this for her...for her." She said holding back the urge to cry.
-2 hours later-
The competitors were all at the ceremony, all dripping with sweat. Except a particular gamer who was sporting a smirk.
"You arent scared, dude?" Markus asked in disbelief.
"Nope!" Layne responded back happily.
"Campers." Chris came up and started speaking, much to the campers dismay. 5 of you. 3 marshmallows. 2 of you will leave tonight and I will enjoy every single moment of this.
"Gee, what a shocker..." James muttered.
"I know, right?" Chris said, obviously expressing sarcasm. Luckily, the bare minimum. "Anyways, the ones that are safe...are.
"James and Markus." Chris said.
"Yes!" Both yelled, overloaded with joy that they're safe.
"The alliance lives on..." James whispered to Markus.
"Luckily, yes." Markus whispered back.
"Layne...Scarlett….and Thomas… One of you will be-"
"Actually? Its just Scarlett and Thomas." Layne said confidently, as he then pulled out his idol and slammed it in front of him. "Boom!" Layne yelled.
Chris picked it up and analyzed it. "Hm...Looks real...smells real..." He then dabbed his tongue on the statue. "and it tastes real! And its also got the McLean seal of approval. So yep, its real! Layne is A-OK in the competition!"
"Woo-hoo!" Layne exclaimed.
"Scarlett...Thomas...you two are both out of Total Drama. But I gotta give it to you guys. You played well. Off to the dock anyways." Chris walked there as Scarlett and Thomas followed suit.
-at the Dock of Shame dun dun dun-
Scarlett and Thomas were on the boat as Chris was giving an ending speech to the two.
"You two are going to a place that of when you look at it, you wish you were voted off first." Chris tapped the boat. "They're ready, Jim!"
The boat drove off and with that happening, Chris suddenly got a call.
"Hello?"
"Hey, is this Total Drama?" A voice over the phone said.
"Yeah. Who's asking?"
"Your worst nightmare if you don't put me on the show."
"Hm...i guess we could add you. Ratings would be off the roof if you become a fan favorite, and judging by your voice, you'll be sure to be one...Where do you live, kid." Chris asked.
"Florida."
"A copters on the way to pick you up, kiddo. Sit tight, and you'll be here tomorrow."
"Good." and with that, the call ended.
"Wow...a mystery camper?! That'll be sure to shake things up, am I right, people? I know im right." He cleared his throat. "Any who, who is he and what will he do here? You'll have to find out on the next episode of Total...Drama...Island!
EXPLANATION TIME!
Lilly was by far the hardest one I had lyrics to write for. She's such a nice girl, and its hard to imagine a girl like her rapping, right? But now I did write it, and my hands hurt right now. But I'm motivated to write chapter 11 right now! Woo!
And who is this mystery camper? You will have to wait...*cue laugh!*
And for an explanation on why these two left, the reasons are this.
Scarlett I felt like would be filled with potential before I officially started the story, but then as the story progressed, in my eyes, she became from a character with so much personality to cannon fodder just like that.
And as for Thomas, same case with Scarlett. But I felt like Trace could be the most shunned by Thomas, giving a plot-line. But since Trace got offed in Chapter 6, he lost a lot of color and just became plot-less. And I understand I might make a few people upset, but WAIT! THERES MORE!
I asked my bro on who to eliminate and who to keep safe. And since Layne had an idol he was automatically safe nonetheless. He chose James and Markus to be safe. So thats how they left. But now, some humor in the light of seriousness!
[1[- so hows life, you as yourself is going to make an appearance in a later chapter in TDOC! Just let me know when you wanna be in it and I'll tell ya. Same thing with the generous guest who left me the rap in the reviews! Told you guys id make it up to ya.
[2]- See above.
I'm afraid that's it. Catch y'all next time cause this is Inky Zzarzz, signing off!
