"Last time on Total Drama Everything," Chris began his recap, "our two teams revisited a previous challenge spot known as the mines. Why we even managed to get there and bring the island back from the depths is beyond me, but whatever. And let me say that the Green Ogres had a rough day. One got eliminated, another got scorched, and everyone was sent flying all over the place. Darn Pikachu. After a super-epic minecart race, Ash and that rat thing were sent flying off the island and into the sky, like some sort of crime syndicate I can't put my finger on. But that mattered little to Nom Nom, as he brought together Deadpool and Mandy into the season's first alliance. Will they dominate the game? And who will be next off this show? Get ready to find out right here! On Total! Drama! Everything!"
*theme song*
Most of the Cute Koalas were relaxing in their side of the cabin a couple days after the mine challenge. But that relaxation was ruined by a knock on the door. "I'll get it," said P.B. as she walked to the handle and opened the door.
Outside was Goku, with a guitar and a sign that said "Yum." P.B. looked just speechless, and Goku started playing his guitar and singing.
"Sugar, sugar, honey, honey. You are my candy girl!"
And that's when P.B. slammed the door in his face. "Just a nibble?" Goku pleaded?
"No!"
Bubblegum turned around, and her fellow teammates were giggling. "You have the wrong kind of admirer," Maya told her, "and it's admittedly fun to watch."
"I really don't what the deal is with that guy," P.B. replied, "but I have a feeling he's never going to give up."
"Ok, I'll stop trying to eat you," Goku called from the door. Toph decided to check by opening it back up.
"You have to promise that you will leave her alone," she said to him, "got it?" Goku nodded to her in agreement.
With that, the Saiyan beamed in excitement as the Koala girls walked outside with him. As they walked, they passed Nom Nom, Deadpool, and Mandy, who were sitting together on the porch.
"Who believes his promise?" Nom Nom asked his alliance members. They just shook their heads.
"That martial arts guru is as forgetful as Billy," said Mandy, "though not as stupid."
Nom Nom thought about that comment. "That may be true, but what we should focus on is how we'll use that to our advantage. Both of you should consider any benefits and problems each action done by you and the other competitors will have. Anything we should do about Goku?"
"We'll break his legs!" Deadpool exclaimed, which caused Nom Nom and Mandy to stare at him.
"Too far," Nom Nom said to him, "besides, can you really break his legs?"
Mandy suddenly had an idea. "There are plenty of strong people on your team as well as on mine. There's Double D and Bubblegum on your side. Both are incredibly smart, making them good targets but hard to eliminate them. My team has powerhouses like Shrek and Superman, as well as people who are nice enough to get by, like Julie and Yusei. I suggest we wait until the challenge so we can find the right opportunity."
Both boys nodded their heads (Deadpool a little too enthusiastic). But they were stopped by the intercom. "Meet at the mess hall for breakfast."
00000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000
"We already have a plan in mind," said Nom Nom, "and everyone had better watch out."
00000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000
Some time later, after everyone had eaten their breakfast (which was normal for Chef, causing suspicion), Chris walked into the mess hall.
"So did everyone enjoy the bacon and eggs?" he said to everyone.
"What are you playin' at?" Shrek asked him.
Chris just let out a chuckle. "Then I guess I had better get this challenge explained." Everyone groaned.
"We are bringing back a famous challenge from the original Island. The Awakeathon! All you have to do is stay awake as long as you can. If you fall asleep, you're out. Last one standing wins invincibility for their team."
Dante just laughed at him. "You forgot to make us do a 20k run around the island," he pointed out, "and give us a huge feast. How hard can this be?"
"I'm glad you think that," Chris said, giggling, "because that breakfast is all you're going to have of real food until you fall asleep or win." He beckoned Chef to bring out a disgusting brown-green sludge.
"This is all you will be eating. And to make this challenge that much more torturous, once you are eliminated, upon waking up, you will be entitled to a delicious feast, which you can consume to you heart's content until the challenge is over. And yes, the winner gets a feast too."
And now there was a major outcry over how unfair that was. "Cococococo?!" Coco asked him.
"Yes, I love being a jerk," Chris replied, "thanks for asking. Now everyone head to the bonfire pit and we can start the challenge."
000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000
"Cocococococo (I hate him)," said Coco.
000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000
The challenge started in the same way the original had started. Dull.
For the first few hours, nothing had happened. Coco was chatting with Lammy, Stan was once again trying (and failing) to pitch his Mystery Shack, Rarity was passing the time by turning some surrounding rocks into sparkling stones, and everyone else was doing something to keep occupied as well while trying to stomach the sludge.
After 12 hours, the challenge finally had a casualty. Deadpool suddenly collapsed and fell asleep out of the blue. Nom Nom did a facepalm at the sight. The Koalas were now down by one.
16 hours into the challenge: Stan was telling Shrek about the Mystery Shack. "It's in the most beautiful town in the United States. The building has a museum, gift shop, and everything." Shrek was so bored from Stan's banter that he fell asleep.
00000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000
"He talks more than Donkey does," said a still-tired Shrek, "and that's sayin' somethin'. Deadpool's worse though."
00000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000
Later…..
Current time elapsed: 24 hours
Asleep: Deadpool, Shrek, Stan (21 hours at time of sleep), Connie (23 hours at time of sleep)
"Congrats on making it this far into the challenge competitors!" Chris announced, "but now we have to take it up a notch. I noticed that some people had a better chance of winning this than other." He glared directly at Mega Man and Superman.
"So we have an insta-fix to the situation." Chef came in carrying a club and walked behind Superman, who wasn't concerned about it at first, until he noticed the club was somehow glowing green.
Before the poor superhero could get away, Chef whacked the club on his head, surprisingly knocking him out. Everyone stood in shock.
"You'd be surprised what Kryptonite can do," Chef said to everyone, "but he'll live."
"Since he's out like a light though," said Chris, "he's out of the challenge. Hehe, I love my job. As for Mega Man, you're simply disqualified from the challenge since I have no idea how to knock you out."
"Dang it," Mega Man muttered to himself.
00000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000
"We were down by three already," said Zelda, "and then we lose our best bet. Better decide who to kick off. Again."
00000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000
Current time elapsed: 30 hours
Asleep (or disqualified): Deadpool, Shrek, Stan, Connie, Superman, Mega Man, Rarity (26 hours at time of sleep), Double D (29 hours at time of sleep)
Goku was starting to daydream, but not because he was tired. He hadn't eaten anything besides the sludge as long as this before. And the situation was getting dangerous for P.B.
"His eyes look really feral," she pointed out to Julie, who, despite being on different teams, had agreed to help the princess out with Goku.
"Don't worry," Julie pointed out to her, "he has incredible willpower. And since he made that promise, you should be fine."
It took all the common sense P.B. had left to believe her. She was about to ask Julie a question about it, but Julie had already fallen, her expression giving away that she was done.
Sam was talking with Snake over who had been in the more dangerous situations.
"I once time traveled into the future and met my 35-year-old self," Sam told Snake, "and Beverley Hills was overrun by our high school rival, also named Mandy, by way of this television show. Oh, and I was once turned into a mime."
Snake thought about that for a moment before stating his case. "Imagine a microwave big enough to cook a Hot Pocket about 50 feet long, 15 feet wide, and 12 feet high. I was once in something like that and survived, more cooked than anything else. And I walked and crawled through that whole thing end to end. I was in there for three minutes. I think I win here."
"Fine," said Sam, "you win." Then she let out a huge yawn. "I can't last much longer."
"Me neither," Snake replied, "I need a coffee."
But their efforts were in vain, and within minutes, both had fallen asleep, not only taking them out, but also making it harder. Not only was everyone tired, but by seeing more people drop, it made everyone just want to take a nap. It even took out one contestant in the confessional.
000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000
Yusei was leaning on the wall, fast asleep.
000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000
Current time elapsed: 38 hours
Asleep (or disqualified): Deadpool, Shrek, Stan, Connie, Superman, Mega Man, Rarity, Double D, Julie, Sam, Snake, Yusei, Lammy (32 hours at time of sleep), Coco (34 hours of sleep), Zelda (36 hours at time of sleep)
Deadpool, who had only slept for 5 minutes, was up and trying to annoy his team. It was Nom Nom's idea for him to annoy the Koalas so they would stay awake.But things were starting to get dangerous. Goku was really starting to crave some sustenance, and P.B. was starting to really worry about whether or not she would be his next snack.
Nom Nom saw the frantic look in her eyes and suddenly had an idea. Knowing that there was still a chance they would lose, he figured those two would have the target. So he looked directly at Mandy and gave her a head gesture to Goku and Bubblegum. She immediately understood and walked over to Goku.
"You seem to be awake more than I thought you would be at this point," she told him, "I thought you would pass out within an hour."
Goku just shrugged at her. "But it all doesn't matter unless you have some decent food. I love eating, even when I'm dead, and this is just killing me."
"There's an actual person made out of candy right over there," Mandy said in response, pointing to Bubblegum, "and if you want it, take it."
"But I can't. I made a promise not to eat her."
"You're a Saiyan, for crying out loud! Are you really worried about a promise like that? Look at her. The strawberry gum hair, the candy face, candy clothes, candy everything. One move can make it all yours. You just have to take it."
And those words did the trick. Now all Goku could think about was eating P.B. whole.
"Go ahead," Mandy told him.
With that, Goku snapped.
"CANDY!"
And he charged right at Bubblegum, who ran away, screaming. "Aaaaaahhhhhh!"
That started the craziest chase scene ever, with a crazy-eyed Goku chasing a scared-out-of-her-mind Bubblegum. As they were running (the thoughts on candy having clouded Goku's judgement and made him run like a normal person), everyone was watching, except for those pigging out in the mess hall. Nom Nom, surprised and pleased that his plan had worked, just laughed.
"Chris, you need to stop this!" Maya yelled at the host.
"But why?" Chris replied, "this is pure entertainment right here."
Maya just got frustrated at that. "But lawsuits from the Candy Kingdom are not entertainment! And I know lawsuits! Bubblegum's attorney just so happens to be my boss, you know!"
Chris decided enough was enough at that point, scared about lawsuits. "Chef!"
And Chef came in with a non-kryptonite club and whacked it on both P.B. and Goku's heads, knocking them out and eliminating them from the challenge.
000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000
"I hope you know how well I handled that, Phoenix," said Maya.
000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000
Current time elapsed: 48 hours
Asleep: Everyone except Mandy, Toph, and Dante.
It was finally the last 3 in the challenge, and all three had their eyes on the prize. Finally, another dropped. Dante, having also been a threat to the challenge, also fell to the club.
"So we're down to two determined little girls," Chris announced, "let's see who lasts."
Deadpool decided to up the ante. "Hey, blind girl? Did you know I could probably dodge every single one of those rocks you wield so well?"
"Are you sure about that?" Toph told him.
"Of course. I have skills you would never dare try to achieve. I even survived being turned into a puddle. It was fun."
"Look, I really don't care about you being a puddle. But I'll squash you into one if you don't back off."
"Doubt it. There's no one more skilled on this planet than I am. That's a promise."
"Seriously, if you don't shut your mouth, I will crush you under a boulder!"
"I'd like to see you try. Now do you want my autograph?"
"UGGGGGGGGGGG! I CAN'T TAKE THIS ANYMORE!"
And Toph lifted a huge stone in front of her, and threw the rock onto her head. Not enough to kill her, but she was knocked out cold.
"And we have a winner," announced Chris, "Mandy and the Green Ogres!" The Ogres cheered at finally winning a challenge for once.
"What can I say? You tried, but now you have to go through elimination. See you at the bonfire!"
0000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000
"Thanks a lot, Deadpool," said Snake.
0000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000
"You really messed up dude," said Mega Man.
0000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000
"I'll have to act out my plan fast before I lose an alliance member," Nom Nom said, worried.
0000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000
Toph is holding an ice-pack to her head. "Definitely harder than I thought."
0000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000
Superman is also with an ice-pack. "Kryptonite club. Well played. Ow.
0000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000
Nom Nom found P.B. on the porch of the Koala cabin with an ice-pack on her head. "Hurts doesn't it?"
"What do you think?" P.B. replied, "I should have never believed that promise would be kept."
"So are you voting Goku off?"
"Yes. I asked a few others to do the same. It's the only way to be free of him and his candy-loving brain."
Nom Nom knew that even this wouldn't save Deadpool, but he did have one way.
"But are you sure it would fully protect you? He may be an all-around good guy, but he is a Saiyan, who were known to be very brutal and vengeful. He could revert to that personality and wind up coming after you just for sending him home. Do you want to live in fear of that?"
P.B. was skeptical, but also worried about the koala's words. What if he was right?
"So what should I do about it? she asked him, now scared again.
"The way I see it," replied Nom Nom, "there's only one thing that will protect you from that monkey forever."
"Whatever it is, I'll do anything."
0000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000
The Cute Koalas were at their first bonfire ceremony, all still looking tired. On top of that, Bubblegum, Goku, and Toph all had ice-packs.
"Time to get things started," said Chris to the group, "when I call your name, come get your marshmallow. Whoever doesn't get one must take the cannon away from the million dollars.
"The first marshmallow goes to…..Lammy."
"Snake."
"Mega Man."
"Nom Nom."
"Maya."
"Toph."
"Double D."
"Sam."
"Rarity."
"And Goku!"
Goku sighed in relief as he went to grab his marshmallow, obviously having realized his actions. P.B. just stared at him, half worry about him, half sorrow.
"Deadpool, Princess Bubblegum, this is the final marshmallow of the night. Deadpool, not only did you fall asleep first, but your annoyance cost your team the challenge. Bubblegum, you're one of the smarter people here, so you could be seen as a threat. Not to mention, people may want you gone to keep you safe." He looked right at Goku when he said that last part.
"But one of you is about to leave the island on a cannon ride. Who will it be?"
P.B. was showing absolutely no fear as she waited for the results. Deadpool, however, was clearly scared-for once, he was still and silent as a stone.
"The final marshmallow goes to…."
….."
….."
….."
….."
….."
….."
"...Deadpool."
And just like that, Deadpool was back to being himself, and kissed his marshmallow while screaming in delight like a little girl.
Everyone else, however, was in total protest. "We all voted for Deadpool! How could that happen?" Mega Man asked Chris.
"Here's why this little princess leaves tonight," said Chris, and Chef rolled in a huge TV, and after a few buttons, revealed Bubblegum's confessional.
000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000
"Nom Nom's right. Just having Goku leave will only add to my danger. I've had enough. I'm done. I quit."
000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000
Everyone looked stunned by what they had just seen. "What did you tell her?" Double D asked Nom Nom.
"That's none of your business, sockhead," Nom Nom replied.
Within minutes, P.B. was loaded into the cannon, ready for the launch. Suddenly, Goku flew up to her. "I hope you can forgive me one day for my behavior."
P.B. sighed. "Maybe one day. Just not now. You've done too much for immediate acceptance." Goku nodded, and P.B. was shot out.
As he watched Bubblegum disappear into the sky, Nom Nom felt like he was on the verge of running the entire game.
Later that night, he once again met with his alliance.
"You do know that she will eventually find out you played her, right?" Mandy asked the koala, "and if she ever comes back, she'll come after you. She's that smart."
"Admittedly so," said Nom Nom, "but we shouldn't worry about that now. We have to focus on what we're doing now. But we should at least use more covert methods."
Both Deadpool and Mandy agreed, and Deadpool stood up.
"Want to see me dance?"
That got him hit in the head with the club from earlier. "I'm-uh-going to sleep, Mommy…" And he fell to the ground.
000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000
Princess Bubblegum was one of the smartest on the show, but her fear of Goku clouded her judgement, making her easy prey to the new alliance. But don't worry. I'm not done with her yet.
Just a little something about the next challenge, it will be holiday based.
See you next time. TheMasterKat out!
