Whew, this took ages to finish!
Has anyone noticed that the redheads in Total Drama are all lacking something major? Izzy lacks sanity, Zoey lacks friends (and a personality – but I still like her, if only because she's pretty) and Scott lacks a heart.
I don't own Total Drama.
I hope you like it!
"Last time on Total Drama Island, thirty-seven teens found themselves at a crappy summer camp!" Chris announced. "Forced to endure disgusting food and less-than-desirable living arrangements, the drama is already starting to heat up on Total Drama Island!"
Cue theme song.
"The first part of your very first challenge is to jump off this one thousand foot high cliff into the lake!" Chris announced to the crowd of teens with a broad smile on his face.
"You cannot be serious!" DJ said.
"Piece of cake." Bridgette commented to Cameron, who was looking doubtful.
"If you look down, you will see two marked areas. The wider ring represents the part of the lake that we have filled with psychotic, man-eating freshwater sharks! And insider that area you can see a smaller area - that is your target area; the part of the lake that we're about ninety percent sure is safe."
"What do you mean 'ninety percent sure'?!" Cameron asked in alarm.
"For each member of your team that jumps and actually survives, you will find a crate of supplies below. In each crate you will find supplies you will need to complete part two of the challenge: building a hot-tub!" Chris explained. "The team with the best one gets to keep it for the rest of the summer! And the team with the worst hot-tub will be sending someone home tonight! Killer Bass – you're up first!"
"So dudes, who's jumping first?" Geoff asked, peering over the edge of the cliff.
"I'm sorry, there's no way I'm doing this." Heather said.
"Why not?" Asked the geeky brunette, Beth.
"Hello, we're on national tv. I can't get my hair wet." Heather said.
"If she's not doing it, then I'm not either." Stated a blonde in a blue bandana, Lindsay.
"Oh, you're doing it." Leshawna said.
"Says who?"
"Says me. I'm not losing our first challenge because you got your hair did, you spoiled little daddy's girl."
"Back off you ghetto glamour too-tight pants-wearing rap-star wannabe."
"Mall-shopping, ponytail-wearing, teen-girl reading peeking at high school prom queen."
"Well at least I'm popular."
"You're jumping!"
"Make me!" Heather challenged, not expecting Leshawna to meet the challenge. Heather's thin physique made it easy for Leshawna to pick her up and toss her over the edge of the cliff. As the plummeted towards the water, she vowed vengeance. "LESHAWNA, YOU ARE SO DEAD!"
"Hey, I threw you into the safe zone, didn't I?" Leshawna called down to the girl as she splashed into the lake. Then, before taking the plunge herself, she commented to herself. "I just hope I can hit it too."
Lindsay, Gwen, Duncan, Harold, Geoff, Tyler, and Ezekiel followed suit, until only Beth, DJ and Katie remained.
"I can't do it." Beth said, shaking. "I'm too scared."
"I can't do it either." DJ said. "I'm afraid of heights – have been ever since I was a kid."
Chris handed them chicken hats and directed them to the path down the hill while their teammates mocked them with chicken sounds from below.
"Nine jumpers and two chickens for the Bass. One left to go." Chris stated, looking at his clipboard.
"I'm not jumping without Sadie!" Katie cried out, clutching her best friend's hand.
"I can't jump without Katie!" Sadie agreed.
"Can we switch teams?" Katie asked, before the two began to beg in unison.
"Please please please please please please please please please please please please please-"
"ENOUGH!" Chris shouted.
"I'll switch teams." Izzy volunteered with a shrug, but Chris shook his head.
"No, now I'm annoyed. Either jump or don't jump."
Katie looked at her best friend and then shook her head. "I can't do it without you, Sadie!"
Chris handed her a chicken hat and the dark-haired girl made her way towards the trail down the slope, moving slowly as if hesitant to make the journey alone.
"Bears, you're up next." Chris said.
"Any volunteers?" Bridgette asked, looking at her team.
"Sha-Lightning will be first!" said an athletic looking boy as he stepped forward. He was the first Bear to take the plunge, followed shortly after by Izzy, Sierra, B and Sam.
"I can't do it without Katie!" Sadie cried.
"Come on, why don't we jump together?" Bridgette suggested, offering her hand to the girl. Sadie was reluctant, but eventually nodded and the two jumped together, followed shortly after by Mike, Brick and Scott – Scott screaming hysterically as he desperately tried to clear the shark-infested water in which he had landed.
Eva was the last Bear to take the plunge.
"I can't do it!" Cameron protested. "I can't swim!"
Chris handed him a chicken hat.
"Excuse me, Chris - I have a medical condition." Courtney said.
"What condition?"
"A condition that prevents me from jumping off of cliffs." she said.
"Are you sure you wanna do that? You could cost your team the win. And then they'll hate you."
"It's a calculated risk." Courtney said. "I've seen the other team, I don't think all of them will jump."
Chris handed her a chicken hat, and she made her way towards the trail, where the bubble boy was on the verge of an anxiety attack.
"Gophers, you're up!" Chris said. "If you can beat the Bears, I'll throw in a cart to help with the crates."
"Awesome!" Trent said.
"Uh-uh. I ain't getting my hair wet." Ann Maria stated.
"But senorita, if you do not jump, we will lose the challenge." Alejandro said, taking the girl's sprayed-orange hand in his own.
Ann Maria blushed under her tan, but sighed. "Okay, I'll jump. But I'm not going first."
"Does anyone want to go first?" Zoey asked with a hopeful smile.
"I would say ladies first, but in this situation, that is not the most gentlemanly path of discourse." Alejandro said, his teal gaze surveying his team. "If nobody has any objections, I will go first."
Zoey, Ann Maria and Dakota were quick to follow Alejandro's lead, diving into the water after him eagerly.
"My great-great-great-great-great-great-great-great grandfather invented swimming. Before him, people just flapped their arms around and sank to the bottom." Staci said. "And my great-great-great-great-great-great uncle invented swimsuits. Before him, people used to swim in their everyday clothes."
Noah and Dawn exchanged a glance, already tired of hearing Staci's ancestral stories and hurried to the edge of the cliff, jumping one after the other. Cody followed suit, and then Justin.
Staci glanced at Chris, who was tallying the score on his clipboard. "My great-great-great grandmother invented clipboards. Before her, paper just flopped in half when you tried to write on it."
"Shut up and jump already!" Jo growled.
"My great-great-great-great-great-great-great-great-great-great-great grandfather invented jumping. Before him, people just fell."
Jo, increasingly annoyed by the brunette, gave her a hard shove and sent her flying off the end of the cliff. Then she breathed a sigh of relief. "Ah, silence." Then she herself jumped.
"Let's do this." Trent said, giving a high-five to his overweight teammate, before sprinting to the end of the cliff and diving in.
"One camper left. You need this jump for the win. No pressure." Chris said. Then he paused and laughed. "Okay, there's pressure."
"You can do it Owen!" called the boy's teammates from below.
Confessional
Owen was sitting in the confessional. "I was pretty darn nervous. See, the thing is – I'm not that strong a swimmer."
Static.
Geoff was next. "I'm looking at this guy and thinking there's no way he's gonna make it."
Static.
"I could sense Owen's determination even from the bottom of the cliff. His aura was magnificent during the challenge." Dawn said. "However, I could not help fearing for his safety should he complete the challenge."
Static.
Alejandro looked at the camera nonchalantly. "If he had not jumped, I would have had him voted off. There is no room for weakness on this team."
Static.
"I actually thought 'if he jumps this, he's going to die'." Gwen said.
"Take a good run at it, Buddy!" Chris suggested, and Owen nodded. "You can do this."
"I'm going to die now. I'm going to fricken' die now." Letting out a battle-cry, Owen took off at a run while his team screamed encouragement – some from the beach and some from the water. Owen reached the point where the land ended and leaped off the cliff, beginning to scream the moment he began his descent. "OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOHH CRAP!"
He hit the water with such force that it sent a tidal wave onto the beach, bowling over every contestant on the beach, and beaching everyone that had been in the water – including the rescue boat.
"The Winners: the Screaming Gophers!" Chris announced via megaphone.
"That was awesome, Dude!" Trent called. Then, seeing that Owen had an unsure look on his face, frowned. "What's wrong?"
"I, uh, think I lost my bathing suit."
The Gophers quickly worked as a team to load their crates onto the carts that Chris had provided them with the Bass and the Bears were struggling with the heavy crates. The Bass were pushing their crates while several members of the Bears team were strong enough to pick up their crates and carry them.
"We need to work as a team." Leshawna stated. "Everyone who can pick up a crate by themselves – do it. Anyone who can't – get a partner. Pushing these crates across the sand isn't getting us ahead in this race – we need to try a new strategy."
"Who made you team leader?" Duncan asked, rolling his eyes in annoyance
"Nobody, but unless you wanna get eliminated this round, I suggest that you listen to me. We don't need to be in first place, but we can't be last." Leshawna said. "So find a partner and pick up your crate!"
Courtney was pushing a crate along in the sand when suddenly she pulled her hand away from the crate and shook it in alarm. "Ow! I think I just got a splinter!"
Eva stalked back and picked up the large wooden box with ease. "Just pick up the damn crate." she snarled at Courtney, dropping the box back on the ground.
Chris drove up on his bright red ATV and raised an eyebrow at the teens. "What's up with you guys? You're way behind the other teams."
"The Gophers are already working on opening their crates." Chris said. Then he laughed. "Might take them awhile, seeing as you're only allowed to use your teeth to open the crates. I thought of that one myself!"
"You can't be serious." Bridgette said, unimpressed.
As Chris drove away on his ATV to catch up with the Bass, Courtney put her hands on her hips and frowned. "We need a project manager. Since I'm the only one here with CIT experience, I'm electing myself."
"Oh goody." Scott commented, rolling his eyes.
"Right, we have the numbers advantage against the other teams. We should use that to secure our team's victory." Courtney said, ignoring Scott's comment completely. Looking around, she nodded. "We need to figure out which boxes are the heaviest. We'll give them to our strongest players and the rest of us can take the lighter ones. That will make moving the crates more efficient."
Courtney's teammates seemed reluctant at first, but couldn't find any reason to refuse her plan. Courtney herself judged the weight of the boxes, then assigned them to people she thought looked strong enough to carry them accordingly.
"Alright, let's get a move on!" Courtney said, and her team hoisted the crates us and began to move. Except one person began walking the wrong way. Courtney frowned. "B, the campsite is the other way."
The silent boy ignored her and took his box to the edge of the beach and the forest, where he placed it on the ground. Then, he disappeared into the bush while Courtney frowned.
"That idiot! What does he think he's doing?!" Courtney said, putting her box down and storming over to where he'd put his box down. "Hey, where are you going?! Stop right now! Are you even listening to me?! I'm in charge! You have to listen to me!"
Silent B remained just that – silent, and he continued on as though .
"B, what in the world do you think you're doin-AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHH!" Courtney screamed at the top of her lungs as she was very suddenly fired into the air, high above the tops trees, with B's wooden crate.
"What just happened?!" Bridgette asked in alarm, the remaining members of the Thrashing Bear team sprinting with their boxes to where B's crate and Courtney had stood only moments before.
"Wow!" Cameron exclaimed in awe as they discovered that Courtney had stepped onto a see-saw type of device. The same device on which B had placed his crate and then used his own weight on the other end of the long board to fire both his crate and an unwitting Courtney across the sky.
"You're a genius!" Eva said, for once almost not glaring as she placed her crate on the end of the device. B prepared to send Eva's stuff back to camp.
The girl with curly ginger hair placed her crate on top of Eva's. Then, as B prepared to jump, she cried out in excitement and jumped on top of the two crates as well. "Izzy wants to ride too!"
"Alright! We beat the other team here!" Leshawna said with a sigh of relief as she put her crate down.
"Yeah! Let's get this thing built!" Tyler exclaimed enthusiastically, grabbing a crow-bar to use to pry the crates open with.
"Not so fast!" Chris said, appearing on his red ATV. "You guys can only use your teeth to get those crates open!"
"You've got to be kidding me." Leshawna said. "Do I look like a beaver to you?"
"At least we're ahead of the Bears!" Heather said, glaring at Leshawna. "Get chewing!"
Leshawna paused and looked around. "Does anyone else hear screaming?"
"WOOOOOHOOOOOOOOOO-YEAH!"
"I think it's gettin' louder, eh." Ezekiel said as the Bass looked around for the source of the screaming.
Suddenly Beth pointed to the sky. "Look!"
"Hit the deck!" Leshawna screamed as they all caught sight of the object that was hurtling through the sky towards them.
All members of both the Gopher and Bass teams dove under the decks of their cabins as the object hit the ground in front of the Bears' cabin. Seconds later a second, smaller crate landed neatly on top of it.
Then, there was a loud SPLASH! as something landed in the Gopher's almost-finished hot tub, which promptly collapsed and flooded the area in front of the Gopher's cabin. As half of the Gophers stared in shock, a girl with bright ginger hair sat up from the centre of the Gopher's smashed hot tub.
She began to giggle and clapped her hands. "HAHA, THAT WAS AWESOME! AGAIN, AGAIN!"
Over the course of a few minutes, several other crates joined the two in front of the Bears' cabin.
The last crate of the Bears' showed up at the same time as the majority of the Bears' team. As the last crate landed on the top of the stack, all of the crates gave way and fell open, revealing the hot tub parts contained within them.
"Izzy, are you okay?" Bridgette asked, rushing over to help her teammate, who still seemed a little dazed. The girl nodded eagerly in response.
"Yeah! It was awesome!"
"Senorita, are you sure? You took quite a fall." Alejandro asked, having emerged from under the deck and extending his hand to Izzy in offering. "May I offer you a hand?"
"Wow-ee." Izzy said, her eyes wide as she studied that handsome Latino boy from the ground for a moment. Then, accepting he hand he'd offered her, she stood and proceeded to shake like a dog, covering both Bridgette and Alejandro in water from the hot tub.
"She's not going to be okay when I'm finished with her!" Jo snarled, crawling out from under the Gopher's cabin's desk and storming over to the redhead angrily. "You broke our team's hot tub!"
"She didn't do it on purpose." Eva said as the other campers emerged from under the decks of their cabins. Then, without awaiting a response from the blonde in the gray track suit, Eva turned back to her team. "Bears, let's build this hot tub!"
"Where's Courtney?" Bridgette piped up, glancing around.
"Oohhhh. . ." Came an agonized groan from above. Looking up, they found Courtney in a nearby pine tree, hanging over one of the larger branches, on a part of the branch that looked dangerously thin. At the bottom of the tree, they saw the remnants of the crate that Courtney had flown with.
"Come on Bears! We don't have all day to finish this hot tub!" Eva growled, spurring her team into action as B arrived. He'd taken a short-cut through the woods and as he walked out of the forest, Courtney slipped off of her branch and fell into his arms.
"Put. . . me. . . down. . ." Courtney said as fiercely as she could, which wasn't very fiercely as she seemed to be quite winded. B complied immediately and Courtney dragged herself to the Bear's cabin, clutching her stomach as she opened the door into the girls' side and disappeared within.
"Come on B!" Eva snapped, holding up a piece of board and a piece of metal piping. "We need your smarts to assemble this thing!"
"Come on Bass!" Leshawna said. "Let's get a move on! We can still win this thing!"
"This is useless." Cody told his team, holding up several broken parts. "Half of our hot tub pieces are broken!"
Sighing in irritation, several Gophers sat on the steps leading up to their cabin to discuss their next course of action.
"So we're gonna lose the challenge?" Ann Maria said, crossing her arms. "Oh, uh-uh, gingy's going down."
"Hold up Helmet Hair." Jo said, smirking. "I have an idea."
"Do tell, senorita." Alejandro said.
"While you're here? I don't think so." Jo snorted. "You were pretty quick to jump up and help that girl from the other team."
"You don't honestly think I would betray my own team for the sake of a girl, do you?" Alejandro asked. "No, I was merely hoping to distract both her and her teammate."
Jo didn't look convinced, but began to whisper the details of her plan anyway. "We can sabotage the other two teams by switching our broken pieces for pieces of theirs that aren't broken."
"Mmmm, I like the way you think." Alejandro said, standing up. "Come on team, we can do this!"
Alejandro grabbed one of the broken pieces and sauntered over to the Bears'. Putting the broken piece down as inconspicuously as he could, he picked up the unbroken piece beside it and wandered back to his team.
"Nice work." Jo said with a nod. "Cody, Noah – you two work on putting this thing together."
"Might want to reassign Cody." Noah commented, glancing over at the brunette, who had wandered over to the Bass team and was trying to flirt with the goth girl, Gwen.
"You have great hair, you know that, right?" Cody said with a smile.
Gwen rolled her eyes. "Uhh. . . thanks."
"Will you guys please stop screwing around?! You're gonna lose us the challenge!" Leshawna said to Duncan and Tyler, who were fighting over a hammer. Tyler let go and Duncan fell backwards, he hammer flying out of his hands and striking Harold.
"MY KIWIS!" Harold gasped, doubling over in pain.
"Look, you need to shape up! You're playing on my last nerve." Leshawna said to Duncan. "This is a team challenge and unless you want us to vote you out, I suggest you start trying to act like a team player!"
"Thanks for the memo, mom." Duncan replied tauntingly, rolling his eyes.
"Oh, you wanna be glad I'm not your mama!" Leshawna said, putting her hands on her hips. "'Cause I would'a beaten that bad attitude outta you."
Confessional
Duncan was sitting the confessional. "I don't know who Leshawna thinks she is, and what she thinks gives her the right to boss me around, but she's starting to get on my nerves."
Static.
"B is going down." Courtney was still looking miserable and clutching her stomach. She was less winded now. "The first time we lose a challenge, he's gone. Mark my words." She winced and clutched her stomach tighter. "Ugh, I think I broke a rib when I hit that tree."
Static.
Cody was sitting the confessional with his hands behind his head. "I know we're on different teams and everything, but I'm pretty sure Gwen digs me."
Courtney emerged from the cabin, still clutching her stomach. She slowly made her way down the steps and began to inspect her team's hot tub.
"Princess lives." Duncan said with a smirk. "You enjoy your flight?"
Courtney rolled her eyes in annoyance. "Leave me alone, you delinquent freak. Can't you annoy someone on your own team?"
"Courtney!" Mike and Bridgette greeted in unison as they approached the brunette.
"Are you okay?" Mike asked.
"Yeah, we've been so worried about you." Bridgette said.
"Not worried enough to come and check on me." Courtney snorted.
"We've been working to get our hot-tub built. We don't want to have to vote anyone out tonight." Bridgette said.
"Right." Courtney said, not seeming convinced. She now moved to inspect their hot tub. "This hot tub doesn't look very sturdy."
"Yeah, some of the pieces were broken." Scott commented.
"They probably got broken when B fired them across the island." Courtney commented.
"A bunch of our pieces were broken too." Duncan commented.
Courtney glared at him. "Can't you bother your own team instead of me?"
"But where's all the fun in that, Princess?" He asked, earning an angrier glare from the freckle-faced brunette.
"Humph." She said, turning her back to the punk boy and instead grabbing a role of duck tape to patch up their hot tub with.
Chris rode up on his ATV then. "Time's up!"
"Done!" Cody said, pouring the last bucket of water into the hot tub.
Chris walked up to Gopher's hot tub and gave it a satisfied nod. "This is an awesome hot tub."
"Awesome!" Trent and Zoey exclaimed, giving each other a high five.
Chris began to inspect the Bass's hot tub. "Err. . . okay . . ."
"Half the pieces were broken!" Leshawna said defensively, putting her hands on her hips.
Chris moved to the Bears' hot tub. "Well, both the Bass's and the Bears' hot tubs have character, but I declare the Gophers the winners!"
"Who has to vote someone off tonight?" Heather asked, looking from her team to the Bears' team. "Us or the Bears?"
"Well, your hot tubs both suck." Chris said with a frown, glancing down at his clipboard. "But the Bears had more jumpers than you guys, so they get second place. Bass, I'll see you at the campfire tonight. Gophers, enjoy your wicked hot tub party!"
Confessional
Gwen sat in the confessional. "You let our team down today. That's why you're out."
Static.
Duncan wasn't looking impressed. "Take your bossiness and your big mouth and just go home."
Static.
Heather appeared on the screen. "You chicken out, you get voted out. That's how it works."
Static.
Geoff was next. "You didn't help our team today and we lost. You're out, sorry."
Static.
Leshawna was last. "You need a serious attitude adjustment. Go get one."
"Bass, welcome to our very first campfire ceremony." Chris greeted, holding up a plate of marshmallows. "Here at camp, marshmallows are more than just a tasty snack. They represent life. I have eleven marshmallows here. You've cast your votes and tonight you will send someone down the dock of shame where they will board the boat of losers and leave the game. And whoever gets voted out cannot come back. Ever."
"Tyler, Gwen, Geoff." Chris said, tossing each a marshmallow as he said their names.
"Ezekiel, Heather, Lindsay." The three rose as they caught their marshmallows and made their way to stand with the other safe contestants.
"Harold, Leshawna,-"
"Damnit!" Duncan hissed.
"Duncan."
"You've got to be kidding me!" Leshawna said as she caught her marshmallow. She and Duncan exchanged dirty looks.
"I have two marshmallows left. None of you kids jumped today." Chris said, looking at Beth, Katie and DJ. "You're the reason your team lost today's challenge."
"DJ." Chris tossed a marshmallow to the boy, relieving his nerves.
"Beth, Katie, this is it." Chris looked back and forth between the two girls. "And the final marshmallow goes to:"
. . .
. . .
. . .
. . .
. . .
"Beth."
"What?!" Beth gasped in astonishment that her team had chosen to eliminate Katie over herself.
"Your 'BFF' jumped without you. You lost the challenge because you can't do anything without her." Heather told Katie, who stood up, looking numb.
"Katie, it's time for you to walk the dock of shame and board the boat of losers!" Chris prompted.
"Can someone tell Sadie that I'll miss her?" Katie asked sadly as she left her teammates. "Tell her to win for me! I'll be rooting for her!"
"I will." DJ volunteered, waving the girl good-bye while trying to hide his relief that it was her and not him being eliminated tonight.
"Thank you!" Katie said, on the verge of tears as she boarded the boat that took her away from the island.
"What challenges will the contestants face next time on Total Drama Island?"
