Thank you to everybody who reviewed Chapter 2 of Total Drama: Back To The Basics. Every review really means the world to me, and I thank everybody who makes the effort to do so!
That's all from me for now, now let's get on with Chapter 3 of Total Drama Back To The Basics.
Narrated by Chris
Last time on Total Drama Back To The Basics, the newly formed teams engaged in some team-building exercises, in an attempt to prove that they could trust each other. Some of the campers worked very well together, whereas others…did not. I'm looking at you, LeShawna.
Some of the highlights of the challenge include Sadie and Izzy plummeting into Lake Wawanakwa and nearly being attacked by sharks, Owen accidently directing Katie onto a landmine, DJ's mad dash through a minefield that ultimately ended in one-in-a-million success, oh yeah, and Blaineley dropped Noah into a pool of hungry piranhas. Ouch.
As a result of her failure in the challenge, and for being a ginormous pain in the keister, poor old Blaineley was given the boot by her team-mates. Nobody was particularly sad to see her go, especially Noah.
This episode, things are going to get a little chilly for our campers. I mean it, literally. I hope they all brought some winter clothes, because things are about to get colder than Frozen up in this joint! Who will be frozen, and who will break through the ice? Find out on this dramatic instalment of Total Drama Back To The Basics!
(Theme Song)
The remaining twenty-three campers all piled into the Mess Hall for breakfast, minus the members of Team Incredible, who were all enjoying the luxuries that the MacLean Spa Hotel had to offer. Sadie in particular was feeling quite cheerful.
"I am, like, so happy that we didn't have to listen to Blaineley complain last night. I have, like, no regrets in voting her off." Said Sadie.
"I know, right. I slept, like, so well last night. Minus the crusty sheets." Said Katie.
"Easy for you to say. You didn't have to spend the night on the floor. I might as well give up on my modelling career now. Who would hire this sleep-deprived monstrosity?" Groaned Justin.
"I still think you look, like, super hot." Said Katie, batting her eyelashes.
"Like, so totally super hot." Said Sadie, trying to outdo her friend. Justin was too busy looking at himself in the mirror to comprehend Katie and Sadie's compliments. Chef Hatchet slopped some gruel onto Justin's plate.
"I might as well give in to the carbs. It's not like I have to keep my figure for anybody. Maybe I should become one of those fat men on the scooters." Groaned Justin, when just then, Heather grabbed his arm and pulled him over to a seat next to her and Alejandro.
"What do you two want?" Asked Justin.
"We want to form an alliance, Justin." Said Alejandro.
"I'm sorry, I really can't focus on anything you're saying right now, because I'm so jealous! You're so beautiful, man! How did you do it? You slept on the floor last night too!"
"You're still beautiful too, Justin." Reassured Alejandro.
"Do you promise?"
"Yes, of course."
"I don't believe you."
"Oh, just get to the point!" Snapped Heather.
"Right, sorry. What did you guys want from me?" Asked Justin.
"We want you to form an alliance with us. So we can take down LeShawna and the lovebirds over there." Said Heather. Justin pondered this for a moment.
"I don't know, guys. You don't really have a great track record of staying loyal to your allies." Said Justin. Heather was about to protest, but Alejandro interrupted her.
"Why don't you take some time to ponder your options, Justin. We're here if you want the option." Said Alejandro. Justin nodded, and walked away. Heather turned to Alejandro.
"What did you just do, you big Spanish idiot! You may have just cost us our only ally!" Hissed Heather. Alejandro put his hand on Heather's cheek.
"Ay, chica, have you no trust in me? You have seen what I am capable of. Don't worry, by the end of the day, Justin will be on our side. You have my word." Said Alejandro, and he kissed her on the cheek, while Heather looked more than apprehensive.
From across the room, LeShawna was watching Heather and Alejandro quietly discuss their options.
"Ooh, look at those two dirt-bags, conspirin' against us. That just grinds my gears." Seethed LeShawna, turning to Geoff and Bridgette. However, the couple were too engaged in a make-out session to comprehend any of what LeShawna had just said.
"Oh, would you two just focus!" Snapped Leshawna. Bridgette and Geoff broke apart.
"Chill out, 'Shawny. Justin's a good guy under all that perfect skin, he'll side with us." Said Geoff. LeShawna sighed.
"I sure hope you're right, Geoff. If you're wrong, we could be in some serious trouble." Said LeShawna.
Confessional:
Justin: I know how valuable I am to both sides of this team. I'm inclined to side with Geoff, Bridgette and LeShawna, but Heather and Alejandro have gotten out of sticky situations before. Maybe I should just wait around to see what both of them have to offer me. Maybe a face transplant, because mine is ruined. /holds up a mirror/ Seriously, I don't get how no-one has fainted at the sight of this yet.
Geoff: I'm not too worried. Justin's a bro's bro. He won't side with Heather and that girlfriend-kissing piece of *beep*.
Meanwhile, Harold, Beth, Cody and Sierra were all eating breakfast together. Cody picked up a spoonful, watched it wiggle around a bit, and then dropped it again.
"I don't think meat is meant to wiggle. I really would like to know what Chef's mystery meat is." Inquired Cody.
"That is, like, the show's biggest secret! Not even I know what it is, and I know everything about this show! I know that Lindsay wears her bandana to hide the scar from when she accidently hit herself in the face with a tennis racquet, I know that Eva is on a wrestling scholarship to her high school, I know that Noah has eight older siblings, a physicist, a chemist, a librarian, a dog-walker, a—"
"Guys! Could we please focus? We need to discuss whether or not we're going to vote off Duncan or Courtney when we lose." Said Harold.
"Well, Duncan approached me last night, and said that we should vote off Courtney. I have no qualms." Said Cody.
"Really? Courtney told us to vote off Duncan last night! Didn't she, Sierra?" Exclaimed Beth. Sierra nodded.
"Darn! Why wasn't I included in any of this?" Groaned Harold.
"Duncan and Courtney have one of the most vicious conflicts in Total Drama History! The one thing they'd like to see most is each-other gone." Said Sierra.
"I wouldn't know who to vote off, though. Both of them have come far in the competition though, but both of them have proven that they can't be trustworthy." Said Cody.
"Can I put in my two cents? I think that Courtney doesn't deserve to stay in. Duncan, on the other hand, is just a big softie. He just doesn't like to admit it." Said Beth.
"Yeah, right! He made s'mores out of my underwear, he pushed me into a horse trough, and worst of all, he insulted my fair LeShawna." Said Harold.
"I don't think it really matters, does it? I mean, once we vote out one, the other will surely follow, right?" Asked Cody, and the other three nodded in agreement. Courtney, seeing their discussion, approached Duncan.
"Are you seeing that? They're forming an alliance against us! We have to do something!" Said Courtney.
"I'm selectively choosing not to attend to the fact that I'm on a team with those dorks over there. You can go join them if you like." Said Duncan.
"Look, I think if there is any hope of us surviving in this game, we need an ally." Said Courtney.
"Why don't you go ask your little ginger boy-toy?" Scoffed Duncan.
"Who, Scott? That was just a one-time thing." Said Courtney.
"Sorry, I'll pass. The quicker I can get out of this game, the better. I already won this game once." Said Duncan.
"You spent all the money within a month! And besides, we all know that once you're eliminated, you're going straight back to prison." Said Courtney. Duncan's eyes widened.
"Okay, deal. I'll ally with you. But we need one of those dorks over there as well." Said Duncan. Courtney grinned.
"I think we should pick Cody." Said Courtney. Duncan scoffed.
"Why him? He's a little runt."
"Because wherever Cody goes, Sierra follows."
Confessional:
Courtney: Getting Cody onto our side won't be easy. Especially since Duncan and I haven't been the best to him in the past. No matter, it's all about survival in this game.
Meanwhile, at the MacLean Spa Hotel, the members of Team Incredible were still enjoying their victory, and all of the luxuries provided for them.
"If I win the million dollars, I am going to build an exact replica of this hotel, and move my momma and I in as soon as we can." Moaned DJ, as he was getting a back rub.
"Dude, that sounds totally sick. But you should add a soccer field, and an arcade, and a room for laser-tag." Said Tyler, who was also getting a back rub.
"Oh, and maybe a petting zoo for all my pet bunnies that I'm going to buy." Said DJ.
"If I win the million dollars, I would buy a panda bear." Said Tyler.
"Yeah, good luck winning the money, though. Especially since I'm competing this time around. And I'm telling you, I would buy a skyscraper, and put a gym on every floor, and you have to work your way to the top." Said Eva, who was working on a large pile of steaks for breakfast.
"Kind of like this competition." Noted Gwen. Just then, Trent arrived back from his morning swim.
"I wish we could be winners all the time. The sun was shining, everything was great. I came in because it was getting a little chilly though." Said Trent.
"Yeah, the weather has gotten kind of grizzly in the last ten minutes or so. It's just black clouds out there." Said DJ. Just then, Lindsay gasped and pointed out the window.
"Look! Snow!" She shrieked.
"Sure, Lindsay." Chuckled Gwen, rolling her eyes.
"No, seriously, snow!" Cried Lindsay. All of the contestants looked at the window and couldn't believe their eyes?
"What the-?" Cried Gwen. Snow was lightly drifting down outside the window.
"Snow? In the middle of summer? How is this happening?" Cried Trent.
Confessional:
Eva: How could it be snowing in the middle of summer? I have a feeling that this has something to do with today's challenge. If so, bring it on, Chris! Snow is just soft, wet stuff.
Gwen: /sighs/ I've never liked to snow. Too cold and wet for my liking. So whatever today's challenge is going to be, I'm sure it is going to be the exact opposite of fun.
The campers in the Mess Hall were equally as confused by the sudden change in climate.
"Oh, man! Did I fall through a time portal again? It took me forever to find my way back." Said Izzy.
"Obviously this is some sort of artificial snow. It's a climactic possibility for it to snow in summer, unless the temperature is below thirty-two degrees Fahreinheit and—"
"Okay, Harold, we get the point! Where is Chris? He might have some answers." Said Courtney.
"Good question, Courtney." Said Chris, as he stepped into the cabin wearing some full winter gear.
"For some of the more detail-oriented of you, you may have noticed that it is snowing outside." Said Chris.
"You don't say." Said Noah sarcastically.
"Today, snow is a core theme in today's challenge. The first thing I want you to do is—" But he was interrupted by Izzy.
"Let's go outside and throw wet stuff at each other!" Shrieked Izzy and several of the contestants cheered in response. Izzy, Owen, Katie, Sadie, Bridgette, Geoff, Harold, Beth, Sierra, and Cody all charged outside. As Bridgette left, she noticed LeShawna staying in her seat.
"You coming, LeShawna?"
"No thanks, girl. Once people start throwing wet stuff at eachother, I like to stay indoors." Said LeShawna.
"Suit yourself." And Bridgette rushed outside, where Izzy, Harold, Geoff and Owen were already engaging in a heated snowball fight, Izzy dominating most of them others. Katie, Sadie and Beth all made a snowman, while Cody made a snow angel, and Sierra made a Snow-Cody.
Team Incredible had arrived back from their night in the Spa Hotel. Lindsay and Tyler immediately joined in the fun, while Trent and DJ joined in the snowball fight. Gwen and Eva stayed reluctantly at the sidelines, and Harold accidently hit Eva in the side of a head with a snowball, and was met with a face-full of snow.
"Alright, alright! Enough of this anarchy!" Yelled Chris and he blew a whistle loudly. Snowballs stopped firing, and Harold stopped coughing up snow.
"Sheesh! Your attention spans are shorter than children's. And what is that?!" Cried Chris, and he threw a rock at Katie, Sadie and Beth's snowman, and it crumbled into pieces, all three gasping in horror. Sierra embraced her Snow-Cody protectively.
"Anyways, as I was saying before Izzy rudely interrupted me—" Izzy blew a raspberry at him.
"For the love of all that is good and holy, Izzy, shut your pie hole!" Cried Chris. Izzy giggled.
"Anyways, as I was saying, today's challenge is going to be revolved around snow. The challenge is going to be split into two rounds. The first round will decide who wins the challenge, and gets to spend a night at the MacLean Spa Hotel." Said Chris.
"The second round will decide which of the remaining three teams will go to elimination. And trust me, both challenges are going to be a killer." Said Chris.
"Anyways, so our first challenge is going to be…a killer snowball fight!" Announced Chris. This proclamation was at first met with a moment of awkward silence, and then a chorus of laughter.
"A snowball fight? That's your big, horrible challenge?" Laughed Courtney. Chris smirked.
"Why don't I give a little…demonstration." Said Chris. He picked up a snowball, and he threw it at Courtney, who yelped and began to shiver.
"Why is that so cold?!" Shrieked Courtney.
"MacLean Laboratories have whipped up a special type of artificial snow. This snow contains chemicals that when you come in contact with them, causes sheer and relentless cold. The lab techs warned us that it could be bad if they came into contact with your skin too much, but hey, what they don't know won't hurt them." All of the contestants gulped.
"My face has already suffered from irreparable damage! I can't do this!" Cried Justin.
"Here is how the challenge is going to work. Each team is going to build a fort somewhere in the campgrounds, and in each team's fort is a flag. Members of the opposing teams will attempt to infiltrate their rival's forts and steal their flag. If your flag gets stolen, you are automatically subjected to the tie-breaker challenge and miss out on a night at the Spa Hotel." Said Chris.
"So basically, it's a big game of Capture the Flag." Scoffed Duncan.
"With added snowballs!" Said Chris, and threw a snowball in Duncan's face, who promptly yelped.
"Team Incredible, since you guys were the winners of yesterday's challenge, you get an advantage. Each of you gets a pair of gloves so it is easier to make snowballs and pelt your foes." Said Chris, as he threw a pair of gloves to each member of Team Incredible.
"Um, could I get mine in a different colour?" Asked Lindsay innocently.
"Teams, you have half an hour to spread out and build your forts. Once half an hour is up, go for your lives. Go!" Said Chris, and all of the contestants began to spread out.
Confessional:
Gwen: After this challenge, I could really use another night in the Spa Hotel. A nice, warm hot tub is literally the only motivation I have for getting through this challenge.
Heather: Like I said before, it's important that Alejandro and I use this time to get Justin on our side. You know, if he can stop whining about his face before then.
Team Warriors – Izzy, Owen, Noah, Katie, Sadie
Team Warriors had escaped deep into the forest, where Owen was panting.
"Phew! That was a long run. Maybe I could stay here and sleep for a while." He panted, falling onto the floor.
"Amen to that, brother." And Noah hit the floor, but Izzy pulled him back to his feet.
"What is this nonsense I am hearing, soldiers? This is war! We can't afford to fall behind the enemy line!" Chanted Izzy.
"Please don't tell me you actually think we're at war." Sighed Noah.
"Sweet Zeus, we're at war?! But I didn't even get to say goodbye to my mom!" Exclaimed Owen.
"You're damn right, we're at war, Owen! But don't worry, I have this all figured out. Katie and I are going to run offense. You, Sadie and Noah-It-All are going to play defence." Said Izzy. Katie and Sadie gasped.
"Wait, Sadie and I have to be apart?" Gasped Katie in horror.
"I feel faint! I can't go on!" Groaned Sadie.
"Don't go near the light, Sadie!" Shrieked Katie, shaking her friend's shoulders. Noah rolled his eyes.
"So as Nutty over there was saying, Sadie, Owen and I are defending. But what is there to defend?" Asked Noah. However, Izzy had already begun constructing a fort at a rapid speed. Within minutes she had completed an almost impenetrable fort.
"Woah. That looks bigger than my cheese cellar!" Gaped Owen. Izzy cackled, and held up her hand for a high five, but she was met with a shriek from Katie and Sadie. Her hand was covered in blue blisters.
"Izzy, your hand! It's as blue as a blueberry!" Cried Owen. Izzy looked at her palm.
"Woah! I didn't even notice! Adrenaline, huh?" Noah took Izzy's hand, and began to observe her blisters.
"What kind of chemical would cause blisters like this?" Murmured Noah. Izzy giggled.
"Oh Noah, if you wanted to hold my hand, why didn't you just ask?" Noah scoffed, threw Izzy's hand back at her, and walked away as Izzy giggled.
"Oh my gosh, Katie! The snow is, like, going to give us these ugly blue blisters!" Shrieked Sadie and she jumped into Katie's arms, and the two promptly collapsed to the ground. Noah rolled his eyes.
Confessional:
Noah: Yeah, I've seen people literally turn into mutants on this show, so I'm going to steer clear of whatever chemical is in that snow at all costs.
Team Lovebirds – LeShawna, Heather, Alejandro, Bridgette, Geoff, Justin.
Team Lovebirds had fled into the woods as well, but they were on the opposite sides of the Island to Team Warriors. As per usual, the team were engaging in some pretty heavy disagreements over their choice of strategy.
"We need to split our team right down the middle, three on offense, and three on defence! Anything otherwise is just stupid!" Said LeShawna.
"Not if we hide our flag well! Then we can allocate four to offense and two to defence, and crush the other teams!" Protested Heather.
"Guys, we are not going to get anywhere by arguing!" Protested Bridgette. LeShawna and Heather continued to argue.
"Should I use my powers of invisibility for good, or for evil?" Pondered Bridgette. Alejandro whispered to Justin.
"You know, now might be a good time to put in your two cents. I'm sure everybody would listen to your ideas." Said Alejandro. Justin grinned, and cleared his throat.
"Alright guys, listen up. I have once again been reduced to nothing more than a circus clown, which means I have to begin using my brain again. I think LeShawna is right, we should have three offending and three defending." Said Justin. Heather seethed.
"I think Heather should be offending. She's so good at it anyway." Said LeShawna. Heather scoffed.
"Whatever, you ghetto trailer-trash. If you're not going to take any of my ideas on board, I'll go defence." Said Heather.
"I'll be on defence with Heather. I could scare the other teams away from the fort with my hideous face." Said Justin. Geoff and LeShawna looked frantically at Bridgette, who swiftly volunteered for the third defence spot before Alejandro could.
"That means LeShawna, Geoff and I are offending. Now let's get started on our fort." Said Alejandro.
Team Incredible – DJ, Trent, Lindsay, Tyler, Gwen, Eva
"Remind me again why we are building our fort at the campfire pit, which is in plain sight of the others." Said Gwen, as she began shovelling her snow.
"Because the first thing that the other teams are going to do is hit the woods." Said Eva, who dropped a large pile of snow on their fort. Meanwhile, Lindsay was fretting over how much work this was.
"This is like, so hard. And I can feel the cold of this snow through my gloves! Which, by the way, are so not in season!" Complained Lindsay.
"I think you should stay in defence, Lindsay, so you can rest that pretty little head of yours." Said Tyler, giving her a kiss on the cheek. Lindsay cooed, but Tyler slipped in the snow and fell onto Lindsay's lap, bringing a whole pile of snow onto her face and causing Lindsay to scream loudly.
"Yeah, you're staying on defence too, Tyler. You're a walking death trap. DJ, you should stay with them so they don't screw it up. Trent, Gwen and I will run offence." Said Eva. Lindsay wiped the snow off her face, which was quickly breaking out in blue blisters. She pulled out a mirror and shrieked.
"Did someone tape a photo of a monster onto my mirror?" Asked Lindsay, but when she realised it was her she shrieked even louder.
Confessional:
Lindsay: My face! Do you know how much foundation it's going to take to cover up these blisters? I so hope we win the challenge, so I can get a spa treatment, like, ASAP!
Team Cody - Duncan, Courtney, Beth, Harold, Cody, Sierra
Team Cody were hard at work building their fort at the top of a hill.
"Remind me again why we climbed all the way up here to build our fort?" Cried Beth, who was thoroughly exhausted.
"It's simple combat tactics, Beth. We have an aerial view of the campground, so that we can see our opponents coming and prepare for attack." Said Harold.
"Thanks for stating the obvious, Harold. Oh, what are you doing?!" Cried Courtney, gesturing at Sierra, who had built three Snow-Cody's.
"Sierra! We need to focus! Our fort is sub-par at best, and the challenge could begin any second and—" Just as Harold was speaking, Chris' voice sounded over the intercom system.
"Attention, teams! Your half hour of prep time is over! Now, it's time to go nuts at each-other!" Said Chris. Harold looked over to their fort, and sighed.
"We have no time now. Courtney, Sierra and I will run offence, and Cody, Duncan and Beth, you guys stay on defence." Said Harold.
"Goodbye, Cody! The distance will be difficult, but we will manage, I'm sure of it!" Cried Sierra, hugging Cody before Courtney pulled her away. Cody winced.
"Think you'll manage without your wife, dork?" Teased Duncan, and Beth shot him a disapproving glare.
Confessional:
Harold: When I was younger, my siblings and I used to have epic snowball fights in our yard during the winter time. They got pretty intense. One time, an ice chip went in my eye and I had to wear an eye-patch for a week. It was pretty cool, I felt like a pirate. It even encouraged me to sign up for Pirate Steve's Pirate Camp.
Beth: /sigh/ I know Duncan is a good person deep down, but he can be so mean sometime! I wish he would stop picking on Cody.
Gwen, Trent and Eva had quickly descended into the woods when the challenge had begun.
"I think I'm getting a cold from all this snow. Ah…ah…achoo!" Sneezed Gwen, and she momentarily lost her balance on a patch of ice, and was about to slip over until Trent caught her.
"You okay?" Asked Trent, bringing Gwen back to her feet.
"Yeah, thanks a lot, Trent." Said Gwen, smiling.
"No worries." Said Trent.
"Can you two lovebirds stop making googly eyes at each-other and focus on the challenge, please?" Asked Eva. Gwen and Trent awkwardly stopped their eye contact.
"This is serious, we could be attacked at any moment—oof!" Cried Eva as she was hit in the side of her head with a snowball. Gwen and Trent gasped.
"Who just did that?" Bellowed Eva, and just then, Courtney, Harold and Sierra burst out of the foliage and began to pelt the three with snowballs. Having been taken by surprise, Gwen and Trent tried their best to fight back, but they were quickly dominated.
"Gah! This is not working! Eva, we need to get out of here!" Cried Gwen.
"I never run away from a fight!" Roared Eva, and she began to transition into a snow-ball pelting machine. She began to quickly overpower the efforts of all three of their foes. She hit Harold and Sierra several times.
"Not so fast, she-hulk!" Cried Courtney, and she aimed to throw a snowball right at Eva's face, when she was met in a snowball on the side of the cheek by Gwen.
"Hey!" Protested Courtney, and then she was met with a dozen more by Eva.
"Ugh! Retreat!" Cried Courtney, coughing up some snow, and she, Harold and Sierra ran back into the woods.
"Yeah, you better run!" Roared Eva, as she exchanged a high-five with Gwen and Trent.
Confessional:
Gwen: /chuckling/ I have to say, I have waited almost three seasons to pelt Courtney in the face with a snowball. Was it worth it? /snickers/ Totally.
Eva: Even I have to admit, Gwen's a cool girl. She's the kind of person I'd form an alliance with. That said, I don't need an alliance. I'll take down all these other competitors on my own.
Izzy and Katie were making their way through the woods, Katie trying to hide her sadness over being separated from Sadie, and failing.
"So, what do you think of Noah?" Asked Izzy out of nowhere. Katie was slightly surprised by this out of the blue question.
"Noah? Uh, he's fine, I guess. He can be kind of cynical sometimes though." Said Katie. Izzy leaned in to Katie.
"Is that really all there is?" Asked Izzy, smirking. Katie was thoroughly confused.
"What are you talking about, Izzy?" Asked Katie.
"You know what I mean! I can totally sense the chemistry between the two of you, and that's not just because I'm psychic—oof!" Their conversation met an abrupt end when Izzy was hit in the back with a snowball. She fell to the floor.
"I've been hit! I've been hit! Go on without me! I'm totally kidding, please don't." And Izzy stood up again, where she came face to face with a snowball-wielding Eva. She smirked at her foe.
"Well, well, well, look what the snow-storm blew in. Eva, my arch-nemesis. Where are the rest of your team-mates?" Asked Izzy.
"Yeah, right here." Said Gwen, as she and Trent stepped through the foliage after Eva. Izzy wasted no more time, and began to promptly throw several snowballs at Eva, who gladly retaliated.
"Gwen, Trent, carry out the plan we discussed!" Hissed Eva, and Gwen and Trent sprinted through the foliage past the fight. Katie gasped.
"Izzy, they're getting away!"
"Chase after them, Katie! I have personal business here!" And Katie promptly sprinted after Gwen and Trent.
Confessional:
Katie: Does Izzy really think there's something going on between Noah and I? I, like, couldn't tell if she was joking because she's C-R-A-Z-Y.
Izzy: Of course there's something between Katie and Noah-It-All! You couldn't cut their sexual tension with a knife! A chainsaw maybe, even a machete, but not a knife! Besides, if my name weren't Izzy aka Kaleidoscope aka E-Scope aka Explosivo aka Esquire, my name would be Romancivo!
Gwen and Trent were quickly approaching Team Warriors' fort, with Katie in hot pursuit. At the fort, Noah was reading a book, while Sadie was sobbing over having not seen Katie for over twenty minutes. Just then, Owen spoke up.
"Do you guys hear something?" Sadie began to listen out.
"It sounds like Katie!"
"Recognisable by her high pitched shriek. Seriously, that girl could shatter glass." Said Noah, rolling her eyes.
"Katie! Where are you? Come back, I miss you!" Shrieked Sadie into the woods.
"Incoming!" Shrieked Katie in response.
"Oh boy, here we go." Sighed Noah, but he was pelted rather hard in the face with a snowball and toppled to the ground.
"Sorry, man." Said Trent, as he stepped into the foliage, Gwen quickly following him. Katie was quick after them.
"Katie! Hi, I missed you so much!" Cried Sadie, before Gwen pelted her with several snowballs and knocked her to the floor. Katie shrieked and went to help Sadie up, and while she was distracted, Gwen and Trent made their way into the fort.
Owen gasped, as Gwen and Trent began to back him into a corner.
"Oh, sweet béchamel cream, have mercy on my poor soul!" Shrieked Owen.
"Owen, I personally like a you a substantial amount, so I'm sorry for what I'm about to do." Said Gwen, poising to throw a snowball, when Noah's voice sounded from outside.
"Owen! Do not surrender! Sit on the flag, there is no way they'll be able to reach it under your…girth!" Cried Noah.
"Great idea, Noah!" And Owen sat on the flag and promptly farted on it, and giggled. Gwen exhaled deeply.
"Come on, we have to move him somehow." Sighed Gwen, and she and Trent began to heave against Owen with all their might.
"You guys can try, but I had a really dense chocolate cake for breakfast. I stole it right out of Chef Hatchet's fridge! But on second glance, I don't think you were meant to know that." Sighed Owen.
"Come on, keep pushing!" Said Trent, but they promptly found themselves surrounded by Noah, Katie, and Sadie.
"Ready to give up now?" Asked Noah wickedly.
"Never!" Scoffed Gwen, and she was promptly met with a snowball in the face. Noah, Katie and Sadie began to pelt Gwen and Trent with snowballs, who were quickly overpowered.
"Gah! Trent, I think we have to flee!" Shrieked Gwen, and she and Trent ducked out of the fort and fled. Noah, Katie, Sadie and Owen all cheered in victory, just as Izzy stepped back into the foliage, covered almost head to toe in blue blisters.
"Aw man, did I miss all the fun?" Groaned Izzy.
"Clearly not, look at your skin!" Gasped Noah. Izzy shrugged the comment off.
"Anyways, Izzy, we have a plan for our next line of attack." Said Katie.
"If we keep Owen sitting on the flag, then that means no-one can steal it, unless it's, like, Eva or something." Said Sadie.
"Which means the four of us can run offense." Concluded Izzy, and the four began to plot their next course of attack.
Confessional:
Noah: I don't know what it is about this team, because usually I would hide high and low to avoid a snowball fight, but darn it, sometimes Izzy's upbeat attitude just makes me want to win! Wow, this show has seriously ruined me.
At Team Lovebird's fort, Heather was filing her nails, Justin was trying to perfectly align his hair so he could keep at least one attractive quality, while Bridgette was on the lookout for any opponents.
"So, Justin, have you thought any more about our proposition?" Asked Heather nonchalantly.
"Not really, to be honest, I'm a little pre-occupied with this little personal crisis. I'm trying to fix my hair so I can at least have that going for me." Said Justin. Heather scoffed, but Bridgette cried out.
"Guys! Incoming, right now!" She yelled. Heather and Justin stood up, only to find Harold, Courtney and Sierra sprinting into the foliage.
"Hah! Crazy Girl, Dork-rold and Courtney? Piece of cake!" Scoffed Heather, and Courtney pelted a snowball at her face. Heather shrieked and ducked behind the court.
"I can't afford any additional damage to my face! Sorry, Bridgette!" Called Justin and he ducked behind them too. Bridgette cowered in fear as Courtney, Harold and Sierra advanced on her.
"Build bridges, not walls, guys?" Pleaded Bridgette.
"I'll take care of her! You guys go on!" Exclaimed Sierra, and she began to duel with Bridgette, while Courtney and Harold stormed the fort. Heather grinned.
"Bring it on, you pathetic group of dweebs!" Mocked Heather, but she was hit in the head by a snowball thrown by Harold.
"Yes! Bull's eye!" Cried Harold. Heather snarled and began to throw at Harold, but Courtney tackled her down.
"Go, Harold! Get the flag!" Yelled Courtney. The only thing standing between Team Lovebird's flag and Harold was Justin.
"You know that I can easily knock you aside, right? Especially considering you've reduced me to some hideous circus creature?" Threatened Justin.
"Sure, but you don't want to risk any more damage to your precious face, right?" And Harold threw a pile of snow in Justin's face, who screamed loudly. Harold grasped this opportunity and seized the flag.
"I've got it!" Cried Harold.
"Retreat!" Ordered Courtney. Sierra stopped pelting Bridgette with snowballs, and began to flee, as did Harold. Courtney got off Heather and began to run, but Heather grabbed her ankle and threw Courtney to the floor.
"Gah! What do you want?" Cried Courtney. Heather grinned, and slammed a pile of snow into Courtney's face, who shrieked. Almost immediately, blue blisters began to form all over Courtney's face. Heather, satisfied, released Courtney and let her flee. Chris' voice began to sound over the intercom.
"Attention, campers! Team Cody has successfully stolen Team Lovebird's flag! This means that Team Lovebirds is out of the challenge, and will be competing in the second round to decide which team is going to elimination!" Announced Chris.
"Justin! What was that? You just let him get away with our flag!" Cried Bridgette, but she shrieked in horror when Justin turned around. Justin's face was covered in dozens of blue blisters, rendering the once-attractive man unrecognisable. Justin pulled up his mirror and proceeded to faint.
Confessional:
Justin: That's it. My modelling career is officially over. I guess I could always become a lumberjack, or a truck driver, or even a cleaner. Not a pool cleaner, though, because they have to be attractive.
Courtney: /her face covered in blue blisters/ Ugh! That stupid Heather. I am going to get my revenge on her one way or another! I mean, my poor face! We don't even know what the long term effects of these chemicals are! I swear, if I turn into some mutant like Ezekiel, or that girl Dakota from Season Four, Chris will have hell to pay!
Gwen and Trent, covered in blue blisters from their encounter with Team Warriors, trudged back to their fort. When they arrived, DJ was there to greet them.
"Oh man, those are some nasty blisters. How did that happen?" Asked DJ.
"We had a run in with Team Warriors. Never underestimate a sarcastic bookworm or two squealing girls with pigtails." Sighed Gwen. Trent looked around.
"Did we miss anything?" Asked Trent.
"Not really. I've just been trying to stay out of their way." Sighed DJ, and Tyler was comforting Lindsay, who was still bawling over the blue blisters on her face.
"Hey, where's Eva?" Asked Gwen.
"I thought she was with you?" Exclaimed DJ.
"When we ran into Izzy and Katie, she held off Izzy while we ran ahead. I thought she would have come back already." Said Gwen.
"We haven't seen her since she left with you guys. So that leads to the question, where on Earth is Eva?" Asked DJ. However, his query was put on hold when a snowball came firing at him. DJ swiftly dodged, and it hit Lindsay in the face, who screamed.
"Incoming!" Cried DJ. Izzy, Katie, Sadie and Noah stormed into the field.
"You again! What else do you want from us?!" Exclaimed Gwen.
"Your flag, for starters." Pointed out Noah. Just then, Eva stormed into the foliage.
"Eva! Where have you been?" Asked Trent.
"I've been tracking these morons! They've been planning an attack since you guys left and I've been keeping an eye on them." Said Eva.
"I think you guys are missing about three-hundred pounds of sweat." Noted Gwen.
"What are you talking about, Sadie is right here!" Exclaimed Katie, while Sadie glared at her.
"She means Owen, dimwit." Scoffed Noah.
"Oh! Well as long as he's, like, sitting on the flag, no-one can get to it, and we'll be fine! So en garde!" Cried Katie, and the team began to pelt snowballs viciously. Katie, Sadie and Noah began to combat against Gwen, Trent and Eva, while Izzy snuck into the fort.
"Surrender your flag, peasants! Or you will be subject to the full force of Romancivo!" Threatened Izzy
"Yeah, right! We'll crush you!" Scoffed Tyler, who quickly picked up a pile of snow, and began to throw it at Izzy who swiftly dodged.
"Haha! Your puny arms are no match for the extreme dodging skills of Romancivo!" Cried Izzy.
"Puny? What's puny? Not these arms, these are gun—woah!" Tyler suddenly began to slip on a slippery patch of ice, and ended up crashing into DJ, and both the men toppled over. DJ groaned. However, Izzy had already grabbed their flag.
"Retreat!" Cried Izzy, and she fled out of the fort. When she emerged, Gwen and Trent tried to stop her, but they ended up just running straight into eachother and toppling onto the floor. Eva tried to catch Izzy, but was held back by Noah.
"No! Don't let her get away!" Bellowed Eva, as she ripped Noah from her, picked up the screaming bookworm and threw him into the trees.
"Ow." Groaned Noah, as he landed in a tree hollow. But nonetheless, it was too late, as Chris had already announced Team Incredible's loss over the intercom.
"Attention campers! Team Incredible is now out of the running, and will join Team Lovebirds in the tie-breaker!" Announced Chris.
"I really wanted that hot tub." Sighed Gwen.
"Team Warriors and Team Cody, you are the only teams remaining in the running. Go nuts, because one of you will spend the night in the MacLean Spa Hotel, and the other will participate in the tie-breaker!"
Confessional:
Noah: /his arm in a sling/ Okay, I'm laying down a new personal rule. Never ever, under any circumstances, come between Eva and victory. Not even if Izzy tells me to.
Izzy: Woo-hoo! /pumping her fists/ Izzy's team of Super-Duper-Ninja-Samurai-Warriors may have gotten off to a rocky start, but now we're bouncing back, like boobs on a trampoline!
Courtney, Harold, and Sierra had since returned to their team's fort, where Sierra was promptly squeezing Cody.
"Alright guys, we need to go all out against Team Warriors. However, she was distracted by the sound of Duncan carving a skull into a nearby tree. Courtney scoffed.
"Would you focus? We need to strategize!" Berated Courtney.
"Chill your behind, princess. We have six people, we outnumber their five. And besides, we just have Crazy Girl, Chicken-Neck, three hundred pounds of mutton and Tweedle Dumb and Dumber to compete with." Said Duncan nonchalantly. However, Courtney seized his arm and dragged him next to the others.
"There is a night in a five-star hotel on the line! I am not taking any chances, especially with Izzy. She's a wild card, that one is…" Muttered Courtney. However, they were distracted by a snowball firing at them, which knocked Duncan to the floor.
"You were saying?" Chuckled Courtney.
"We have incoming!" Cried Cody. At the bottom of the hill, all of Team Warriors were barrelling up at the hill, including Owen, fuelled by an animalistic rage.
"Battle stations!" Called Courtney.
"I told you it was a good idea to build the fort on the top of the hill! Now we can carefully observe their composition, direction, and—oof!" As a snowball knocked Harold to the ground. Team Warriors made it to the top of the hill and the zone was immediately set into a frenzy.
Cody, Beth and Sierra were pelting Katie and Sadie with snowballs, however, Owen approached them.
"Kawabunga!" Roared Owen, and he jumped high in the air, and landed on all three opponents, sitting down on them. Cody, Beth and Sierra struggled to free themselves, but this was no use.
"Good job, Big-O! Make sure they don't get away!" Instructed Izzy, who ran into the fort.
"Sure thing, Izzy!" And he accidently farted on his foes, all of them hacking and wheezing. Katie and Sadie were keeping Courtney occupied, while Noah and Harold were pelting each other with snowballs, and mostly missing.
Izzy entered the fort, where she immediately spotted Team Cody's yellow flag. She walked towards it, but was stopped by Duncan.
"Don't get any closer, Crazy Girl. I'm warning you." Threatened Duncan.
"Or what? You'll glare at me with your scary eyes and your lip piercings and your green Mohawk? I've come across scarier things than you, my friend, and his name is Chef Hatchet." Mocked Izzy. Duncan growled, and charged at Izzy, and she dodged.
"Now, Owen!" Cried Izzy. Seconds later, Owen charged through the wall of the fort, and Duncan was buried under a pile of snow, his screams muffled. Izzy snatched the flag, and leapt out of the fort.
"We have it, team! Let's skedaddle!" Shrieked Izzy, and she bolted down the hill. Courtney tried to lunge for her, but ended up face-first in the snow and with even more blisters. Katie, Sadie, Noah and Owen quickly followed.
"Attention, campers! Team Warriors has claimed the victory, which means that Team Cody will be facing off against Team Lovebirds and Team Incredible in the second round to determine who will go to elimination." Announced Chris.
"As for Team Warriors, they are granted invincibility from tonight's elimination, and also
"What were you saying about them being no threat, Duncan?" Scoffed Courtney, but when Duncan emerged from the fort, Courtney shrieked. Duncan was covered almost head to toe in blue blisters, and when he spoke he could hardly be understood as his lips were too swollen.
Confessional:
Courtney: So close, yet so far. I really wanted that night in the Spa Hotel! I guess I have to bring it upon myself to drag my team across the finish line in the next challenge.
Duncan: /with swollen lips/ Mmmm! Mhmrmm hrrrrmm mmmmmhhhhh!
Chris gathered the remaining three teams on the top of the thousand foot cliff, which was coated with ice and snow. Most of them were covered in blue blisters, but the worst off were Courtney, Duncan, Justin and Lindsay.
"Chris? Do you have any idea what long-term effects could occur due to prolonged exposure to this snow?" Asked Courtney.
"Not sure, Courtney. We didn't have time to test it on the interns." Said Chris. Courtney shuddered.
"Uh, if we turn into mutants like Zeke and the fifty-foot attention seeker, what's your plan then?" Asked Duncan furiously.
"Good for ratings, I suppose." Said Chris.
"Anyways, it's time to move on to the second part of the challenge! What snow-themed challenge would be complete without a winter Olympics segment!" Cheered Chris.
"I can already tell this is going to suck." Sighed Gwen.
"Here's how part two will work. We're doing this baton relay style. Each team gets a baton, and each team member will take turns in skiing down this hill with their baton, and then climbing the T-bar back up." Said Chris, gesturing to the rickety old T-bar at the bottom of the hill that looked like it could collapse at any moment in the wintery chill.
"The first two teams to have all their team members, and have their baton, will be safe from elimination tonight. However, the last team to complete the relay will be going to the dreaded elimination ceremony, where they will bid adieu to one of their team-mates." Said Chris.
"This challenge doesn't seem too difficult. What's the catch, MacLean?" Asked Eva. Chris pointed at Eva.
"Give that girl a cookie, she knows me too well." Chuckled Chris.
"There are a variety of obstacles that require skilful maneuvers in order to navigate your way down to the hill. Chef, why don't you give us a demonstration?" Chef Hatchet growled, as he strapped on a pair of ski goggles, and began down the hill. Almost immediately, he set off a landmine, which sent him flying down the hill, where he rolled through a pit of tar, and landed head-first in a snowdrift at the bottom of the hill. Most of the contestants winced, and Chris laughed.
"Alright, so you have that to look forward to. Now, the order in which you ski down the hill is going to be completely random. Team Lovebirds, your first skier will be Bridgette. That should be interesting." Noted Chris. Bridgette gulped.
"Screw this up for us, surfer girl, and I will feed you to wolves. Luckily, I've been on skiing trips my entire life, so I'm somewhat of an expert." Threatened Heather.
"Relax, Heather. You're going straight after Bridgette, so even if Bridgette does royally mess this up, I'm sure you can fix her mistake." Said Chris. Heather smiled smugly.
"Following Heather will be LeShawna, followed by Geoff, followed by Justin, and Alejandro will be the lucky last." Said Chris.
"For Team Incredible—by the way, tough break on losing your winning streak—your first skier will be DJ." Said Chris.
"Have you ever been skiing before?" Asked Trent.
"A few times, but it was a while ago. Hopefully I can pick it up again quickly." Said DJ.
"Following straight after DJ will be Lindsay, then Tyler, then Gwen, then Trent, then as the lucky last." Said Chris.
"Ooh, this is so exciting! My daddy always took me on his company skiing trips!" Cheered Lindsay.
"As for Team Cody, your first skier will be Sierra. Sierra will be followed by Beth, then Courtney, then Cody, then Duncan, and Harold will finish up for the team." Said Chris.
Confessional:
Bridgette: I'm kind of nervous, I've never actually been skiing before, but it can't be that different from surfing, right? You know, it's just always going down, and instead of water it's snow. /laughs nervously/ how different could it be?
Heather: I hope that my expertise will be enough to get us to the finish line. As long as Surfer Girl doesn't screw it up for us. Which if she does, she is going home.
At the top of the cliff, Bridgette, DJ and Sierra were all lined up, ready to go. Bridgette was visibly nervous. Geoff, concerned for his girlfriend, spoke up.
"Bridgette, babe, it's okay to take it nice and slow! It'll be okay!" Reassured Geoff.
"Uh, hello? It is not okay! She'll cost us the challenge, and then your pretty little make-out buddy will be walking down the Dock tonight!" Threatened Heather. Meanwhile, Sierra was also slightly nervous.
"I've never been skiing before! What if I screw it up? What will Cody think of me?" Cried Sierra. Just then, Harold had a bright idea.
"Sierra! Pretend that Cody is at the bottom of the mountain, and he needs your help!" Suggested Harold. Sierra gasped.
"Why does he need my help?" She cried.
"He's being eaten by a polar bear." Said Duncan, and Courtney elbowed him. Sierra gasped.
"Alright contestants! On your mark…get set…"
"CODY!" Shrieked Sierra and she began to barrel down the mountain. All of Team Cody cheered, while DJ and Bridgette were close behind Sierra.
"Hey! This isn't so bad! Woo-hoo!" Cried Bridgette, as she began to pick up speed.
"YES! That's my girl! Woo-hoo, go Bridge!" Whooped Geoff from the top of the mountain, while Heather rolled her eyes. However, Bridgette soon came across some trouble, as she didn't know how to brake. She quickly lost control.
"Whoa! Ahhhh!" Cried Bridgette, and she crashed straight into DJ, and both of them landed in a heap on the ground. Everybody winced.
"Oh my gosh, DJ! I am so sorry! Are you okay?" Asked Bridgette.
"It's cool, Bridge. No need to worry." Said DJ kindly.
"Uh, yeah there is! Surfer Girl, you are so going home if we lose!" Yelled Heather. Meanwhile, Team Cody was cheering for Sierra.
"She's almost at the bottom! Go, Sierra, go!" Cheered Cody. Sierra reached the bottom of the hill, and she quickly grabbed a pole on the T-Bar and began to make her way back up the mountain.
Confessional:
Harold: I don't know why Duncan is Team Captain and I'm not. My idea helped Sierra get to the bottom, and his idea in the last challenge was to sit around and do nothing. Courtney at least tried to help, so I think I know who I'm voting off if we lose.
Sierra: I know there wasn't any real danger, but no polar bear tries to make a meal outta my man and gets away with it! Also, I don't think there are any polar bears in Muskoka.
It had taken a while for DJ and Bridgette to pick themselves up again, but once they had started again, they were quickly back in control. DJ arrived at the bottom of the mountain first, and began to climb the T-Bar. Bridgette, who had decided to take the run a little bit more slowly, arrived a little while after DJ, and began to climb the T-Bar.
"Look at her! We're in last place! I knew we shouldn't have let her go first!" Complained Heather. LeShawna had had quite enough of Heather's complaining.
"Shut your mouth, fake-tooth. She is tryin' her best." Snapped LeShawna.
"Her best isn't good enough!" Protested Heather. Just then, Sierra arrived at the top of the T-Bar and Team Cody cheered. Sierra passed the baton to Beth, who looked at it apprehensively.
"I-I'm scared. I've never skied before." Whimpered Beth.
"Don't worry, it's easy to get the hang of!" Reassured Sierra.
"You'll do fine Beth, don't worry!" Said Cody, and he gave her a reassuring pat on the back. However, he accidently pushed Beth a little too hard, and she began to tumble down the hill, screaming as she went.
"Oops." Whispered Cody. Beth landed in a heap, and when she tried to get back up, she promptly fell back down again. Duncan slapped his forehead.
"There goes our lead." DJ was passing Beth on the T-Bar.
"Keep going, Beth! It's not that hard!" Reassured DJ. Bridgette soon passed after.
"You can do it, Beth!" However, Bridgette was distracted and as a result did not see the rock jutting up from the snow, which she promptly hit and fell to the floor in a heap. All of Team Lovebirds gasped.
"Bridgette has taken a dive whilst going up the T-Bar! That means she has to ski all the way back down the bottom and try again!" Announced Chris. Bridgette gulped, and Heather and Alejandro seethed in fury.
"It's okay, Bridge! Just try it again!" Announced Geoff. LeShawna sighed.
"We are so doomed." She sighed.
Confessional:
Bridgette: /sighs/ Yeah, okay, I'm probably going home if we lose. Which is okay, I guess, because there's more to the world than money, but I was hoping I would at least go a little bit far.
While Bridgette briskly made her way back down to the bottom of the T-Bar, DJ had made his way up to the top, and passed the baton to Lindsay.
"Good job, DJ! Now if we overtake Beth, we should have no problem!" Cheered Gwen. Lindsay gave Tyler a kiss for good luck, and then began down the mountain. However, she quickly came across Beth, still in a crumpled heap on the floor. She quickly ground to a halt.
"What are you doing?" Shouted Eva.
"Beth! Are you okay?" Asked Lindsay, concerned for her friend.
"Lindsay, I'm stuck! I can't get up." Sighed Beth. Lindsay extended a hand to her friend, much to the chagrin of her team.
"Push her over! Take the lead!" Cried Eva. Gwen, DJ, Trent and Tyler shook their heads at her disapprovingly and Eva chuckled nervous and rubbed the back of her head.
Beth took Lindsay's hand, and tried to pull herself up, succeeding momentarily until she lost her balance once more and then fell again, this time bringing the blonde beauty with her. Gwen slapped her forehead.
After lots of struggle, Lindsay and Beth finally pulled themselves up.
"Okay, Beth, let's do this nice and slowly!" Said Lindsay, and the two best friends held hands as they skied down the mountain together.
Confessional:
Gwen: /smiling/ I know I shouldn't be condoning this because Beth is on the other team, but the fact that Lindsay stopped to help Beth really restores my faith in humanity. Of course, give it twenty minutes, and Heather will destroy it again.
Duncan: /scoffs/ What a bunch of wusses. When will all these dweebs learn that to win this game, you can't be stopping to help the other team. Then again, our team might have been kind of screwed if Blondie hadn't stepped in, so whatever.
Bridgette had finally made it to the top of the mountain once more, where a furious Heather snatched the baton out of her hand.
"Are you happy, Bridgette? Look how behind we are!" Snapped Heather furiously.
"Woah, woah, woah, leave the girl alone! If you wanna stop wastin' time, then get out of here!" Defended LeShawna. Heather scoffed, and started down the mountain, while Geoff comforted Bridgette. Heather, determined to catch up to Lindsay and Beth, was skiing down the mountain at a rapid speed.
Lindsay and Beth had just reached the bottom of the mountain, and they were about to get on the T-Bar.
"You can take the first pole if you want! You deserve it for helping me up!" Said Beth graciously.
"Aw, thank you Beth! That is, like, so sweet!" Cooed Lindsay, giving Beth a hug before she grabbed the pole and began to make her way up the mountain. Beth began to reach out for the next pole. However, Heather sped into the area, pushed Beth over and grabbed the pole for herself.
"Hey, that wasn't nice!" Protested Beth.
"Sorry, dweeb! Eat or be eaten in this game!" Laughed Heather as she made her way back up the mountain. Team Cody was in shock over Heather's malicious acts.
"Great, we were in first place, and now we're in last!" Cried Courtney.
Confessional:
Beth: That was so mean of Heather! That said, what else would you expect from a nasty, two-timing, alligator-skinned, raving *beep* /gasps and brings her hands to her mouth/ Did I just say that?
Heather: What can I say, that should teach that little dweeb not to be such a pushover. I have no clue how she made it so far in Season Two.
Beth had picked herself up and brushed the snow off herself, and grabbed a pole, but Lindsay and Heather were already a significant amount ahead. Lindsay was the first to reach the top, and she handed her baton to Tyler, who pumped his fists.
"Don't worry guys, I'll be back up here before you can say 'kawabunga'!" Cheered Tyler, and he began down the hill. However, almost immediately he fell over and tumbled a fair amount before stopping entirely. Eva slapped her forehead.
Heather was the next to make it to the top, and she handed her baton to LeShawna, who looked at it reluctantly.
"What are you waiting for? Get on with it, trailer trash!" Yelled Heather.
"I have knocked out one of your teeth before, I'd suggest you zip your lips, wig-hair! I've never been skiing before, let me figure myself out." Snapped LeShawna. However, Heather shoved LeShawna down the hill, who like Tyler, tumbled for a fair amount before stopping.
"Ooh, that white girl piece of—" Mumbled LeShawna.
Beth had soon after Heather made it to the top, and passed her baton to Courtney, who grabbed it confidently.
"This is going to be a piece of cake! I was the captain of my high school winter sports team, and I achieved three-time gold for the—"
"Shut up and ski, princess!" Snapped Duncan. Courtney scoffed and began to zip down the hill. She quickly passed Tyler and LeShawna, both of whom were still struggling to get down the hill.
"And, Team Cody takes the lead!" Announced Chris. Duncan, Cody, Beth, Harold and Sierra cheered. However, it wasn't long before Courtney hit the first landmine. One second she was skiing like a bullet fired from a gun, the next, she was flying through the air, shrieking.
"Ooh, and Courtney's almost flawless performance hits a bump!" Announced Chris. Courtney landed in a snowdrift at the bottom of the mountain, thoroughly shaken from her experience. Once she had found her bearings, she realised that she was still in first place.
"You'll never catch me now!" She yelled to LeShawna and Tyler, as she grabbed a pole from the T-bar and made her way back up the mountain.
LeShawna was not far behind Courtney, and she jumped on the T-Bar and began to make her way up. Tyler soon followed LeShawna.
"Damn pole between my legs, familiar but I'm just not a fan." Seethed LeShawna. However, she quickly lost her balance for one moment, let go of the pole, and landed in a heap on the floor. Since Tyler was not far behind LeShawna, there was no way for him to dodge and he landed in a crumpled heap on top of LeShawna.
"Ooh! LeShawna and Tyler take a double-wipe out and have to go back down to the bottom!" Announced Chris.
"Yes! Team Cody all the way!" Cheered Courtney, as she made it to the top and passed her baton to Cody, who quickly began to ski down the hill.
Confessional:
Heather: Great! I'm on a team of complete losers! If we lose, there are seriously too many idiots to choose from to vote off!
Courtney: At that point, our team was so far ahead that I was almost positive that we would win it all! That said, I wouldn't put it past Chris to pull some dirty trick and screw everything up.
LeShawna and Tyler made their way back down to the T-Bar, and LeShawna took the first pole back up, followed shortly by Tyler. Meanwhile, Cody was getting the hang of skiing, but he slipped in a pit of tar and fell flat on his face. Sierra gasped.
"Cody-kins! Are you okay?!" She shrieked. Cody was too busy to respond, but he quickly got up, and began to ski down. Eventually, he made it to the bottom, before LeShawna and Tyler had made it to the top.
LeShawna eventually made it to the top of the cliff, and handed her baton to Geoff.
"You! I can't believe how much you screwed us up! Team Cody is so ahead, and now we have to beat Team Incredible, and they have Iron Woman Eva!" Spluttered Heather. LeShawna ignored her.
"Woo-hoo! This is gonna be wicked, bros! Totally reminds me of this time me and my bros back east went on this skiing trip to Colorado. It was so dope, we—"
"That's nice, party boy, but get going!" Said Justin, and Geoff began down the hill. Tyler also arrived back up, and passed his baton to Gwen, who followed Geoff down. Geoff and Gwen were soon neck-and-neck.
"Yo, Gwen, nice manoeuvres you got there." Complimented Geoff. Gwen smiled.
"Thanks Geoff, but if I were you, I would watch where you were going." And with that, Geoff accidentally skied over a patch of rocks and fell over, as Gwen continued down to the T-Bar.
Meanwhile, at the top of the mountain, Cody had finally arrived and handed his baton to Duncan. Duncan snickered.
"What are you waiting for? Get going already!" Cried Courtney.
"Relax, princess. We have a massive lead. It's just Doris and I who still need to go, and then we're golden." Chuckled Duncan.
"We need to maintain our lead! Look, Gwen is already at the bottom of the mountain, and Geoff is nearly there too!" Cried Courtney, pointing to the bottom of the mountain, where Gwen had just climbed aboard the T-bar. Duncan rolled his eyes and began to roll down the hill.
However, trouble soon came across the punk. He was the second camper to hit a landmine, and went flying into the air, shrieking as he went. He landed head-first in the snow. Courtney laughed. Duncan growled as he maintained his posture.
"A reminder to all campers, that you must have your baton when you come to the top of the mountain, or your team is subject to instant elimination." Announced Chris. It was at this moment Duncan realised that in the blast he had lost the baton.
"Dude, you can't be serious!" Complained Duncan.
"I'm serious." Mocked Chris. Duncan growled, extended his middle finger at the host, and began digging through the snow for his baton.
Confessional:
Courtney: /sigh/ I just knew something would go wrong! Why can't Duncan just listen for once! I swear, it's like talking to a pineapple. But even a pineapple has a higher attention span than Duncan!
Duncan: I can't believe I was reduced to a snow-shovelling dork. Once this challenge is over, I'm coming after you, MacLean!
Team Cody's lead was rapidly decreasing as Gwen arrived at the top, and handed her baton to Trent, and he began down the hill. Geoff followed soon after, and handed the baton to Justin, most of his team-mates cheering enthusiastically for the model as he rolled down the mountain. Trent and Justin both quickly overtook Duncan, who was still frantically searching for his baton.
"Team Cody falls behind, while Team Incredible and Team Lovebirds are neck and neck!" Announced Chris. Courtney slapped her forehead.
"We are so doomed."
Trent and Justin were both skiing rather well, however, towards the end, Trent stumbled and fell face-first into the slow.
"See ya later, Trent." Chuckled Justin, as he quickly took the lead. Trent was soon back on his feet, and followed Justin. Justin began to climb the T-Bar, with Trent shortly behind him.
"Trent and Justin are both coming in for the home stretch! Once they reach the top, Eva and Alejandro are going to have to race for immunity, but it doesn't seem like it is going to be much of a race with Team Cody still stuck behind!" Laughed Chris.
"Duncan! What are you doing?" Yelled Courtney.
"You try sifting through all this snow, princess! The baton is gone, I don't know where it is!" Yelled Duncan. Courtney slapped her forehead.
Confessional:
Justin: I've never actually been skiing before. I don't want to brag, but /flicks hair/ I'm just naturally quite good at almost everything.
Justin soon reached the top of the hill and he passed the baton to Alejandro. The Spanish man grinned wickedly.
"This is going to be a piece of cake. Duncan still needs to find his baton, which means Team Cody is going down." Chuckled Alejandro, and he began down the hill. Trent arrived up shortly after, and gave the baton to Eva.
"You're going down, pretty boy! I could maybe tolerate second place, but no way is my team coming in third!" Roared Eva, and she started down the mountain.
"Having fun, Duncan?" Taunted Alejandro as he glided past.
"Get bent, Al!" Snapped Duncan, but just then there was a loud bang as a landmine was set off, and Alejandro was sent flying through the air, shrieking as he went. Duncan burst out laughing.
"Ooh, and Alejandro hits the third land mine! That looked painful!" Laughed Chris. Alejandro rubbed his head.
"Out of my way!" Snapped Eva as she glided past. It was then that Alejandro realised he had lost his baton.
"Oy vey! My baton! Where is it?" Cried Alejandro.
"Oh man, maybe I'm not so screwed after all!" Chuckled Duncan. It was then that his fist hit something cold and hard, and he pulled his lost, yellow baton straight out of the snow. Team Cody cheered from the top of the mountain.
"Duncan has found his baton and may continue on with the race, while Alejandro is stuck in the snow!" Announced Chris. Alejandro seethed in rage, as Duncan skated past, whooping as he went. However, Alejandro soon had an idea, and he walked casually up to the T-Bar.
Eva had since reached the bottom of the hill, and was climbing up the T-Bar. However, while she was half-way up the mountain, the T-Bar made a horrible cranking sound and stopped entirely.
"Hey! What gives?" Yelled Eva to the top of the mountain.
"Uh oh, looks like the T-bar is busted. What a shame." Announced Chris.
"How are we meant to get to the top now?" Asked Duncan, who had reached the bottom of the mountain.
"If you give me just a moment to sort this out, then we can get the show underway." Said Chris. Eva and Duncan seethed in fury.
Confessional:
Eva: Great! Trust this show to cheap out on production! Grrrr-ahhh! /punches a hole in the wall/ Whoo…okay, deep breaths Eva…sorry, got a little frustrated. Anyways, I was this close to finishing, and MacLean's sloppiness screwed me up! Luckily Alejandro was still stuck in the snow, and Duncan still had to give his baton to Harold, so I was pretty much in a good position.
Duncan: Aw man, just as I thought things were turning around for me, things fall to crap again. But hey, my team's come too far to lose now. I just gotta beat Alejandro.
Alejandro: That's right, I sabotaged the T-bar. I needed to distract the other players while I looked for my baton. Let it never be known that Alejandro Burromuerto was stuck in the snow.
Chef Hatchet was soon on the issue, where he presented three rickety old snowmobiles to an unimpressed Eva and Duncan at the bottom of the mountain.
"This is seriously the best you could do?" Scoffed Eva.
"Hey, they still work, and they're your only way of getting up the mountain. Unless you wanna walk." Called Chris.
"That might be preferable." Seethed Eva. However, Duncan jumped onto a snowmobile.
"Suit yourself sister, but I'm outta here." And Duncan began to accelerate up the mountain. Eva groaned and jumped on a snowmobile as well, following quickly after Duncan. Meanwhile, Alejandro was still looking for his baton, when he noticed there was only one snowmobile left. He scoffed.
"That's right, Al! You and Harold both still need to make it to the bottom, and there's only one snowmobile left. So pretty much, whoever doesn't get there is toast." Announced Chris.
Duncan was the first to arrive on his snowmobile, and he quickly hopped off and passed the baton to Harold.
"Took you long enough." Exclaimed Harold.
"Get going, Doris." Scoffed Duncan, and Harold began down the hill. Eva was the next to arrive, and she faced her team happily and threw the baton onto the ground.
"Eva has brought it home for Team Incredible, and they place second and are ultimately safe from tonight's elimination! Now it's between Team Lovebirds and Team Cody, and I'm not liking Alejandro's odds." Chuckled Chris. However, it was at that moment that Alejandro unearthed his blue baton and held it up in the air triumphantly. Team Lovebirds cheered.
"Go, Alejandro, go!" Cheered Geoff. Alejandro began to stand up and ski down, just as Harold passed him. The Spanish beauty and the scrawny nerd were neck and neck, and racing for the last snowmobile at the bottom of the cliff. Both members of Team Cody and Team Lovebirds were frantically cheering the two on.
Confessional:
Harold: This was the perfect opportunity to regain the dignity that Alejandro stole from me in Season Three. No way was I going to let him beat me twice! And plus, I went to Winter Steve's Winter Camp so I was pretty much golden for this challenge.
Alejandro: No way was I ever going to lose to El Dorko. Have you seen him? Those scrawny little arms couldn't hold a fly let alone a ski pole.
Beth: I have to admit, at that moment, I thought we would lose. No way would Harold win in a sports competition against Alejandro. This is the guy who puked after five push ups!
Geoff: I knew at that moment that we had it in the bag. Still, Harold has always been kind of a wild card. The dude is always coming up with new ways to surprise you.
"Game over, dweeb!" Laughed Alejandro, as he leant forward and began to accelerate his speed. As Harold was much skinnier and lighter, he couldn't quickly catch up to Alejandro. Alejandro naturally reached the bottom first, jumped on the snowmobile and hit the accelerator, only to find something on the back weighing him down.
Harold was grabbing on to the back of the snowmobile while Alejandro was accelerating up the mountain.
"Let go, dork!" Snapped Alejandro.
"Never!" Protested Harold.
"Yeesh! Harold is one clingy nerd. This is getting neck and neck, so why don't we throw a twist into Alejandro and Harold's game?" Suggested Chris. He pulled out a remote control, pushed a red button, and almost immediately the ground the contestants were standing on began to shake. Sierra jumped into Cody's arms, who toppled over immediately.
Snow began to hurl down the mountain, straight towards Harold and Alejandro. Both the men screamed as they were promptly buried by snow.
"Chris MacLean! Did you just bury them alive?" Shrieked Gwen.
"People die in avalanches, Chris! What if Harold and Alejandro are dead?" Cried Bridgette.
"Are we sure that's the worst thing that could happen?" Commented Duncan before Courtney promptly elbowed him.
"Alejandro I can live with, but if you just buried my poor little string bean alive then you are a dead man walking, Chris MacLean!" Cried LeShawna, grabbing Chris by the shoulders and shaking him viciously.
"Calm your luscious behind, LeShawna. Look, there's Harold now!" And Chris pointed to the site of the avalanche, where the ginger nerd had dug himself out, baton in hand and was now sprinting up the mountain as fast as he could, which was very slow.
"Come on, Alejandro." Muttered Heather. Soon enough, Alejandro had surfaced from the snow and was quickly catching up to Harold. Team Lovebirds began to cheer, until Alejandro shoved Harold face-first into the snow.
"Sorry, mi amigo. There's only room for one winner on the island." Chuckled Alejandro. Harold, coughing up snow, wrapped his arm around Alejandro's ankle.
"What are you going to do with those lanky arms, you nincompoop?" Snorted Alejandro. Harold squinted his eyes and with great force, swung Alejandro backwards and let him go tumbling.
"Noooo!" Cried Alejandro. Once he had gained momentum it was impossible for him to stop and he tumbled all the way to the bottom of the hill. Team Cody cheered frantically and lifted Harold on their shoulders as he reached the top of the hill, while Team Lovebirds stared in disbelief.
"Team Cody places third and is safe from elimination! This, however, means bad news for Team Lovebirds, who have just won a one-way ticket to the dreaded bonfire ceremony." Announced Chris.
Confessional:
Harold: When someone puts me in a perilous circumstance, I can summon such strength from within me that I didn't even know I had! Kind of like when a mother can lift a car off it's baby, or when someone gets in the way of Owen and food.
LeShawna: I am glad that my little string bean finally stood up to that two-timin' bully, but that means bad news for my team. I guess this is a good reason to vote Alejandro off.
Heather: Well, we lost. And I am a woman of my word, which means that either Bridgette or LeShawna is going home tonight. Watch out ladies, because Heather's coming.
Team Warriors were recovering from the climactic snowball fight with all the luxuries that the MacLean Spa Hotel had to offer. Noah was relaxing in the hot tub.
"These blisters are already fading. They must just be some shallow skin blister that is reversed by hot water." Commented Noah. However, his moment of peace and solitude was derailed by Katie and Sadie's giggles nearby. The two friends came into the area in their pink bikinis, and jumped into the spa, accidentally splashing Noah's book.
"Oops. Sorry, Noah." Giggled Katie.
"Honestly, I'm too relaxed to care. This really is the life. I hope we never lose again." Sighed Noah, resting his arms behind his head. However, they heard a rallying cry from a nearby Owen.
"Kawabunga!" Cheered Owen as he cannonballed into the hot tub, causing all the water to flow out of the tub, and drenching Noah, Katie and Sadie. Katie and Sadie shrieked.
"My hair!" Bawled Sadie.
"Oops. Sorry, guys." Chuckled Owen. Just then, he noticed Noah staring at Katie.
"Noah, buddy, are you okay?" Asked Owen. Noah was brought back to reality.
"Huh? Sorry, what was that?"
"Dude, what's up with you? You were just like, full on staring at Katie." Said Owen, and Katie raised an eyebrow. Noah stammered.
"Zip your lip, Owen."
Confessional:
Noah: I never actually noticed it before, but Katie is actually kind of cute, especially with her pigtails and her dazzling smile…Gah! What am I saying? Chris, I demand that you erase that!
Katie: Okay, now I'm starting to think that what Izzy said about Noah to me is true, and I'm starting to freak out! Noah can't like, like me, can he? And I mean like-like, not just like, in like a friend way. Like, totally. But hey, he is kinda cute.
Meanwhile, while her other four team-mates were in the hot tub, Izzy was stuffing her face at the buffet table.
"Better get eating while Owen's not here. Otherwise we might all starve in this hotel." Chuckled Izzy, gazing upon the glorious feast in front of her. She began to scoff madly, but then burped up a note. She read it out loud.
"You are now part of an even larger competition.
For more details, meet me in front of the bear cave, and don't bring company.
Be prompt."
"Hmm. This certainly is suspicious. It's probably just Chef trying to drag me into another fight, but I at least have to go check this out." Said Izzy. Just then, Noah, Katie and Sadie walked back into the room with towels around their necks from their encounter with Owen. Izzy hid the note behind her back.
"O-kay, team! I'm going for a walk." Said Izzy, trying to sound as non-suspicious as possible.
"A walk? How could you ever leave this place? You'd have to be crazy—Oh wait, look who I'm talking to." Said Noah.
Confessional:
Izzy: Hm, I can just sense the mysterious vibes from that note. Whoever left it obviously means business. Unless it's the RCMP, then I might be in trouble, but who cares!
Izzy arrived at the front of the bear cave. Night was sweeping over Camp Wawanakwa and the whole environment had an enigmatic feel to it.
"Hello? Mr. Mysterious Note Leaver? Are you there? If you're the RCMP, um, I'm not home!" Called Izzy.
"Welcome, Izzy." Called a voice from inside the cave who sounded remarkably like Chris.
"Chris? Is that you?" Called Izzy.
"Chris? Who is Chris? But I hear that guy has awesome hair." Said the voice. Izzy chuckled.
"Not really, I think it looks more like someone dipped a wet mop in tar and put it on his head."
"How dare you! I'll have you know that—" the voice cleared it's throat and regained its composure.
"Izzy. You are now a part of a larger competition that extends outside of the million dollar prize." Whispered the Chris-voice.
"Awesome, bring it on! Am I going to work undercover for the FBI? Ooh, ooh, I'm going on a secret mission for the government! Do I get a gun? Ooh! Can I have a katana blade instead?"
"Hush! This season, your fantastic, hair-oriented host brought back the MacLean Brand Chris Head, an item of invincibility which can be used at any time to save it's holder from elimination." Said Chris.
"Hah! You got me all excited over a wooden head carving with a big chin?"
"Would you be quiet, you belligerent little—heh-hem." Said the voice.
"Each day, a note is hidden in the MacLean Spa Hotel, and if a member of the winning team finds it, they become eligible to compete to find the MacLean Brand Chris Head, which is hidden somewhere on the Island." Explained the voice. Izzy tapped her chin.
"Izzy, you now have a massive advantage, as you are the only of the twenty-three campers remaining to know about the Idol's existence. That means that you have free reign to search as you please until the next camper finds the note." Said the voice.
"Cool! I'm game." Said Izzy.
"Go get a good night's rest, Izzy. You still have a challenge tomorrow." Just then, bats flew out of the cave, and they were followed by a screaming Chris. Izzy looked at him tentatively.
"You didn't see me here." Said Chris, and he bolted. Izzy shrugged.
Confessional:
Izzy: So, Izzy just won a major advantage in the competition. I pretty much have a whole day to look for the invincibility idol before someone else finds out about it. I'll have to look for it, but hey, I've tracked people from across the country before, so how hard can it be? Besides, Chris' butt chin stands out from a mile away. /giggles/
Chris: I. Do. Not. Have. A. Butt. Chin. My chin is just defined, that's all.
Justin was in the communal bathrooms, having just had a shower and wrapped only in a towel, when Heather and Alejandro stepped into the bathrooms.
"Woah, hey, occupied! But enjoy the show if you like, my face may be messed up but I still have my abs going for me." Said Justin.
"Justin, as gorgeous as you are, and I mean really, really gorgeous—" Heather trailed off for a little while, before Alejandro elbowed her and glared with her disapprovingly.
"Sorry. As gorgeous as you are, we're about to go vote. And we need to know if you're with us or against us." Said Heather.
"Sorry, I don't really have an answer for you yet." Said Justin, who was beginning to rub lotion on his shoulders.
"Look at it this way, Justin. You can side with Bridgette, Geoff and LeShawna, and vote us off. But once the two of us are eliminated, think of how quickly they will turn on you. They would only be using you for your vote." Said Alejandro, stepping in. Justin pondered this for a second.
"Won't you guys do the exact same thing though?" Asked Justin.
"Oh, definitely not. We need your vote—er, you too much." Said Heather.
"That's something to think about. Thanks guys, but I'm gonna need a little privacy now." Said Justin, and he loosened the towel on his waist. Heather once again began to stare longingly before Alejandro dragged her out of the bathroom.
Confessional:
Justin: Like I said, now that my face is a mess, I kind of have to use my brain. And I have a plan for tonight's elimination. A very good plan.
Bridgette: I just really hope Justin sides with us at the elimination. Heather and Alejandro need to go, but even if he doesn't, it would still be their three votes against our three.
At the elimination ceremony, all of the members of Team Lovebirds were sitting at the campfire pit. Bridgette, Geoff and LeShawna chit-chattered amongst themselves while Heather and Alejandro remained silent.
"Could you please shut up? Your voice is giving me a migraine." Complained Heather.
"You and your hubby are the reason we're at this ceremony in the first place. You can live with it." Snapped LeShawna.
"This was a team effort. We're all at fault for being down here. Especially you, you fell off the T-Bar." Defended Alejandro. LeShawna looked down. Chris walked into the campfire pit.
"Welcome to your first ever elimination, Team Lovebirds. Despite your joyful name, I'm sensing some major tension between the two sides of this team." Said Chris. Almost everybody rolled their eyes.
"Get on with it." Yawned Justin. Chris shrugged.
"There are six hopeful campers in front of me, and only five marshmallows. One of you will not get a marshmallow, and must walk down the Dock of Shame, board the Boat of Losers and never return." Said Chris. Heather made a cut-throat gesture at Bridgette, who looked down nervously.
"Let's get this ceremony underway. LeShawna, the Team Captain, you are safe for another night." Said Chris, throwing LeShawna a marshmallow. LeShawna cheered in joy and ate her marshmallow. Bridgette looked even more nervous now.
"Geoff, you are also safe. Congratulations." Geoff gave a cheer, and kissed Bridgette on the cheek before taking his marshmallow.
"Justin, my main man, and my only competitor in sheer attractiveness. You are safe." Said Chris, flicking Justin a marshmallow.
"Sorry, I can't eat this. Too much sugar." Said Justin, throwing it in the bush.
"This leaves three hopefuls looking at the face of elimination. Bridgette, you screwed up majorly for your team, and it's debatable as to whether your rocky start was the cause for Alejandro's rocky finish." Said Chris.
"Uh, I believe that was because of you." Noted Alejandro.
"No matter. Alejandro, you screwed up and pretty much lost for your team, and lost to Harold, of all people. Pretty pathetic, dude." Laughed Chris. Alejandro seethed.
"As for Heather, you're simply a massive pain in the keister, but you also did perform excellently in the second round. So quite naturally, you are also safe." Said Chris, throwing Heather a marshmallow who grinned wickedly.
"Bridgette, Alejandro. One of you guys is going home. Both of you screwed up today, and one of you will not get a second chance." Bridgette glanced nervously at Geoff, who was biting his fingernails in anticipation. Heather and Alejandro did not look worried.
"Tonight, the final marshmallow, goes to…"

…

"Bridgette."
Bridgette exhaled deeply as Chris flung her a marshmallow. LeShawna and Geoff cheered, while Alejandro looked utterly mortified.
"What! But this cannot be!" Cried Alejandro.
"You!" Shrieked Heather, and she slapped Justin across the face.
"Ah! My gorgeous face!" Shrieked Justin.
"Alejandro, I'm sorry to say that you have been served, dude. This comes as quite a surprise to all, as you have never been eliminated this early before. But now, it is time for you to board the Boat of Losers." Said Chris. Alejandro sighed. Heather grabbed his hand.
"Don't worry. I will make these losers pay, for everything that they have done to you. I promise." Said Heather, her lip wobbling. Chris noticed this.
"Aw, Heather, I think we are about to see Total Drama history! Are you about to turn on the waterwor—Oof!" Chris was knocked to the floor as Heather threw a branch at Chris' head. Alejandro gave Heather one last kiss on the cheek before he departed down the Dock of Shame.
Confessional:
Bridgette: In the end, I'm happy that Justin sided with us for now. Of course, it was at a cost, but at least I'm in for another day, and Alejandro is out. Now it'll just be that much easier to get rid of Heather.
Heather: Okay, if they thought I was bad before, they haven't seen anything yet! They might think that now that Alejandro is gone, it'll be easier to eliminate me, but oh no, I am coming after them, one by one! They will all pay!
Justin: Sure, I voted off Alejandro. But hey, I got something great out of the deal. And all will be revealed with time.
Flashback – Two hours before the campfire ceremony
Bridgette, Geoff and LeShawna were sitting on the steps of the Cabin.
"So, it's settled. We vote off Alejandro." Agreed Geoff.
"Justin would be a fool not to side with us. If he doesn't vote with us, I'll slap him upside the head, make that pretty boy see some sense." Said LeShawna. Just then, Justin walked up to the three.
"Justin! Hey, how are you?" Asked Bridgette. Justin flicked his hair.
"You know why I'm here." Said Justin.
"Look, who are you voting off tonight, man? Cuz if you're voting off one of us, why would you be here telling us?" Asked Geoff.
"I just thought that I should let you know that Alejandro and Heather are planning on voting off Bridgette tonight." Said Justin. Geoff gasped.
"They're planning on voting off my Bridgey-Bear? Who are they, some kind of freak who can't see how hot she is?" Cried Geoff. Bridgette raised an eyebrow.
"You ain't gonna vote with them, are you?" Asked LeShawna.
"I might. But listen carefully to what I'm gonna say, because I'm not gonna say it again." Justin paused for dramatic effect, and the three listened in carefully.
"Oh, crap, I forgot what I was going to say. Hold on just a second."
"Who you gonna vote off, boy?!" Thundered LeShawna.
"Oh, right, that. So, I will vote off whoever you want to vote off, on one condition."
"We're listening." Said Bridgette. Justin grinned.
"I've come to realise that if I side with you, it's only a matter of time before I'm the minority and the three of you gang up against me. So how do I benefit from the deal?" Asked Justin. The three looked at each other anxiously.
"I will vote off whoever you want to vote off, on the condition that for the rest of the time that we are team-mates, you're not allowed to vote me off. Ever." Said Justin. Bridgette gasped.
"That's a pretty big ask, Justin…"
"Cool, that's fine. I'll vote for you then. It'll be three votes Alejandro, three votes for you. Then, there'll be a tie-breaker, and we all know that Alejandro is pretty good at tie-breakers." Smirked Justin. Bridgette bit her lip.
"Okay, okay, we'll go along with your little deal. Vote off Alejandro tonight, and we won't vote you off until the merge. But, this pact will only stay valid as long as you don't throw any of us under the bus." Said LeShawna. Justin shrugged.
"Okay, sure. I'll vote off Alejandro tonight."
"And if you cross us, we're allowed to vote you out?"
"Sounds fair."
Confessional:
Justin: So I've gotten a pretty sweet deal out of this. As long as I don't cross LeShawna, Bridgette and Geoff, I'm pretty much invincible. I can dedicate my time to other things, such as repairing my mangled face.
Cabin Four - Justin, Geoff, Harold
With Alejandro gone, there was one less male in Cabin Four, and due to Owen and Noah sleeping at the Spa Hotel, everybody got a bed that night. Justin was pretty satisfied with the outcome, but at the middle of the night, Heather broke into the cabin without waking anybody up, permanent marker in hand.
"This will teach you to side with those losers and eliminate my boyfriend." Whispered Heather, as she promptly scribbled all over Justin's face, including a moustache, bushy eyebrows, and a love heart on both cheeks. To top it all off, she scribbled the word "traitor" right on his forehead. She then left the cabin, without having woken anybody up
VOTES:
LeShawna: Alejandro's made one too many bad moves in this game. At some point, guppy's gotta go.
Heather: I'm a woman of my word, and I swore to bring down either Bridgette or LeShawna. I have opted for Bridgette, but LeShawna will be next, I guarantee.
Alejandro: I vote Bridgette, and as long as Justin votes with us, which I don't see why he wouldn't, either Heather or I will take her on in a tie-breaker and I feel confident that we can win.
Bridgette: I have been waiting so long for the opportunity to vote Alejandro off, and now it's finally here. I vote Alejandro.
Geoff: It's gotta be Alejandro, better him than Bridgette. Also, I saw him sabotage the TBar . Low move, dude.
Justin: I vote off Alejandro. What can I say, I'm a man of my word. Kind of.
Alejandro – 4
Bridgette – 2
Eliminated – Ezekiel, Blaineley, Alejandro
Still In – Katie, Sadie, Trent, Lindsay, Geoff, Bridgette, Beth, DJ, Gwen, Noah, Owen, Cody, Sierra, Izzy, Tyler, Courtney, Harold, Duncan, Heather, Justin, Eva, LeShawna.
Shocker, right? Alejandro is out. Personally I was never a fan of the guy, I think he was just a smarter, Spanish Justin. I do very much enjoy his relationship dynamic with Heather, although I don't feel like there's too much more to explore there, hence the early elimination. Anyways, hope you guys enjoyed the chapter!
'Till next time,
