Chapter 3: The Ultimate Gym-Nasty-Tics

Chris stood on the dock with only a minor difference in his usual getup. He wore a referee shirt. He kicked off the episode like he always did. "Last time of Total Drama Nostalgia, our teams competed in an epic aquatic themed challenge. While trying to set wooden toys on fire, Chef served up some spaghetti with a side order of gulls to the contestants," Chris laughed at the thought. "Chef and Dawn nearly took out everybody permanently in an epic battle on Chef's tricked out ride. After a hard fought challenge, the Tigers ended up being the big losers. And in the end, it was that big Larper Leonard who got sent home through the magical portal known as the Flush Of Shame, via the Wizard and Wickedly McLean."

The camera panned on the referee shirt Chris was wearing. "What's this your wondering." The host suddenly pulled out a whistle and blew it. "You'll see soon enough. What challenges do I have in store for these lovely contestants today? Will somebody get hurt? Will somebody triumph? Will all these questions get answered? Coach McLean says today's practice is to find these answers here only on...Total...Drama...Nostalgia!"


In the McLean Spa Hotel, the winners of the last challenge, The Villainous Lions were off and about their own things in the morning. Zoey and Duncan were seated on a couch, with glasses of OJ, Kitty was because taking selfies of herself and the various things inside the hotel, Alejandro was enjoying a fine breakfast made up of steak and eggs, Scott sat by himself picking and eating his own breakfast, Lightning was busy devouring all of the protein related dishes in site, Jo exercised by herself, Emma and Noah read a lengthy book together on the further end of the same couch Zoey and Duncan were on, Samey chose to keep her distance from everybody while Heather merely filed her nails, ignoring the other 'losers' on her team.

"Lightning my friend."

The Jock looked up to see a familiar Latino speaking to him. "Sha-Yeah?"

"I would like to make that proposal I wanted to offer you last night amigo."

The Dumb Jock, intrigued, continued to listen to Alejandro. "The Lightning's listening, but be quick, I've got a meeting with the MEAT! M-E-Uhhh ET!"

Alejandro had to hide his frustration. It was hard, but he had to do it if he wanted his plans to succeed. "I would like you to join forces with me, in an alliance, that way, nobody will be able to stop us and we will make it to the finale my friend."

Without a second thought, The Jock said, "Done and done." He shook hands with Al.

Confessional (Alejandro): "Of course I do not trust that incompetent jock, and he most likely does not trust me fully either, it's only a matter of me dumping him, before he tries to dumps me."

Static*

Confessional (Lightning): "The Lightning doesn't trust no one! Sha-Boom! Alejandro won't know when, but sooner or later he'll be struck by Lightning! Sha-Bam!" The Jock began kissing his biceps.

Static*


"Soooo, if I want to earn her trust back, I've got to be...nice?"

"Yes Duncan, being nice to people works wonders when you actually mean it." Zoey and Duncan were sitting by themselves, drinking orange Juice and going over ways for Duncan trying to earn Gwen's trust back. So far, it was proving difficult.

"But Gwen didn't fall for a nice guy, she fell for Duncan."

The Indie Chick facepalmed at how much Duncan's pride was getting in the way of things. This was going to be a very difficult task.

Confessional (Zoey): "I want to help Duncan get back on Gwen's good side, after all, he's had it rough since All Stars, with Gwen breaking up with him, and his weird obsession with being seen as a hardened 'bad boy' getting the better and WORSE of him, and then of course, him getting arrested. He just needs a friend...and to realize that being a bad boy," Zoey threw up air quotes "Isn't everything." A genuine smile grew on her face. "I'm gonna teach Duncan how to kill 'em with kindness."

Static*


"Sooo, I can show her how cool and nice I am, what if tamper with Heather's nail file with itching powder, after all, Gwen and Heather are arch enemies."

Zoey facepalmed again. "No Duncan, I doubt that is going to work,"

Suddenly, "Seriously dude, you are bad at impressing girls, and I thought nobody could be worse than Noah at this."

The Indie Chick and the now awed Ex-Con look up and see Kitty standing there before them, smiling like she always does.

"Your joking right? No way I could ever be worse than that dork, especially when it comes to girls." Duncan fired back.

Before anyone could say anything else, Zoey decided that it was time to put the 'Gwen' matter on hold for the time being.

"Duncan, why don't we take five?"

The Ex-Con got up and walked away. Grumbling could be heard as he disappeared from the two females. Once he was gone, Zoey began conversing with one of her two new friends.

"Glad that's over." She started.

"There's more to him than what he tries to portray himself as you know."

Zoey was baffled. The Indie Chick thought she was the only one that knew this about Duncan. "How'd you know this? I thought only I knew this about Duncan."

The Sister of Emma merely laughed, "Oh I can read guys like an open book Zoey, and it helps that I'm a certified love professional with a love detector. Duncan deep down is a guy with a sweet side."

"Your right."

Soon the two began talking about the current subject at hand.


Heather was filing her nails by herself, not even caring about the rest of her 'loser teammates'. All she cared about was completely controlling her team and manipulating everyone to slavishly obeying her.

Confessional (Heather): "Naturally, I've got to take over the team leadership role, it's the only way we'll be able to win. Then I'll pick them off one by one and rightfully get back the million dollars that I was robbed of."

Static*

The Diva continued filing her nails until...

"Princess Skimpy."

The irate Queen Bee looked up to see Jo standing there, with an uncaring expressing.

"You've got three seconds before I do something that'll make this show go the r-rated route."

"Like anyone's scared of your skinny washed up butt, anyways that's not why I'm here. I want to form an alliance with you, not because I like you or need your strength or anything, but it's because of the dimwitted guys on our team, last night 'Sha-Chump' and your loser boyfriend 'Ale-Suck-Dro' were being suspicious, I say me and you pick them off before they gain a numbers advantage over us."

The Jockette expected Heather to accept her offer, but instead, The Diva merely laughed hysterically.

"Oh please, like I'm scared of Lightning and Alejandro, they'll be off of my team before they least expect it."

"Hold up, your team?!"

"That's right, and if you don't fall in line Jo, you'll be off of my team soon enough as well." The Queen Bee strutted off, intentionally bumping Jo in the process. It didn't take rocket science to conclude that Jo and Heather wouldn't be joining forces anytime soon.

Unknown to either of them, Scott and Samey watched this nearby. Samey looked nervous in her seat at the long table, while Scott clearly had bad intentions planned.

Confessional (Scott): "It's perfect really, while Jo and Heather try and bite each other's heads off, I can just pick up what's left of them both and send them packing. Papi always told me that it's better to let everyone else throw the bad manure at each other and then take what's left of the good stuff."

Static*

Confessional (Samey): "Wow, almost the entire team is no different than my sister, they're all evil in a way." The Nice Twin then realized what she just said, "Except Zoey and Kitty of course, and I guess Noah and Emma to, I think it's best if I lie low for a while, especially around people like Alejandro and Jo...that way I won't get sent home early."

Static*


Back at The Loser Cabin, Gwen and Courtney sat outside on the stairs, while Cody sat just a little further away from the duo.

"Not that we're buddy buddy or anything like that, but thanks for shooting away that green haired filth for us Cody."

The Code-Meister's eyes widened. Was Courtney actually saying thank you to him? It was almost a dream come true. "No problem Courtney, even though me and you aren't normal associates, I felt terrible for how badly he hurt both of you. Especially Gwen, nobody hurts my friend and gets away with it."

Gwen merely smiled at both of her friends, but she also had a lingering thought in her head.

Confessional (Gwen): "A part of me wants to forgive Duncan, nothing more than that, but I've yet to see that he's changed thus far, he's got a long path ahead of him before that happens. And I know everyone has been saying that I was unfair to him in our relationship by ignoring him and all, but everyone needs to get over it, it was my decision to break up with him, and nothing's gonna change that or make me regret it."

Static*

"While we're all here? Where's Sierra?" Gwen asked.

Courtney shrugged this off, not knowing the answer to this. Cody spoke up.

"Oh yeah, I asked her to pick me some blueberries, I only did that so she wouldn't creep me out and ruin my morning."


Inside the guys proportion of The Loser Cabin, Owen, Mike and Tyler were all on respective bunk beds, talking to one another.

"So, what do you think today's challenge is gonna be like guys?" Owen for one was curious about the challenge.

"I don't know," Tyler started. "But whatever it is, Chris is making it extreme, and we've got to be ready for it if we want to win,"

Mike was too busy being distracted with his inner thoughts. He missed Zoey, and it pained him to not be on the same team as her. It even scared the Ex-Multiplied Boy that a certain Green-Haired player is definitely bonding with her as they spoke.

Confessional (Mike): "It hurts not being on the same team as Zoey again, and I miss her so much...maybe I'm overreacting...then again, maybe I'm not...I'll just talk to her after the challenge, that'll help ease the stress."

Static*


The Sistah known as Leshawna was inside of the girl's proportion of the Loser Cabin. Amy had gone off to do who knows what. But Leshawna was glad as she did not trust that evil little white girl and cheerleader's clothing.

Suddenly, "I sense you are troubled on the inside Leshawna."

The Sistah jumped out of shock. Soon, Dawn, the Moon Child appeared before her, in meditation form. Once the initial shock began to wear off, Leshawna decided to talk to her because why not? She seemed strange, but harmless overall.

"Yeah girl, I guess you could say that, I just have a bad feeling about one of our teammates."

"The one known as Amy? Isn't that right?"

"Yeah her, something about that little white girl is just rotten. I don't trust her."

"Her Aura is surrounded by darkness indeed, tormenting her innocent and bright sister is just apart the evil that is in store for us all."

Leshawna was about to pry more into it, but as soon as she looked back at the spot Dawn was in, she was somehow, no longer there anymore, leaving The Sistah baffled.

Confessional (Leshawna): "She is one strange white girl, but at least she's someone to talk to."

Static*

"Attention contestants," Chris' voice was heard throughout the loudspeaker on the island. "Meet me at the the Dock Of Shame stat, today's challenges are gonna rock your world, and heads," The Host laughed, getting his point across. Everyone began heading for the Dock Of Shame.


At the Dock Of Shame, Chris and Chef were waiting for the kids to arrive. Both of them had on a referee's shirt with a whistle to top it all off.

"You think they're ready for today's challenges?"

"Nah?" Chef replied. "A few of them will end up in the first aid tent by the end of the day." The Cook chuckled as Chris nodded in agreement.

Soon the Teams arrived at The Dock Of Shame. Once everybody was there, today's challenge could be revealed.

"Hey guys! How are you all doing this fine morning?"

Nobody looked happy or cared enough to put up with Chris. The host was slightly annoyed that no one would at least greet him.

"Glad to see everyone's in a joyful mood," The sarcasm was heard. "Moving on, you're all probably wondering what today's challenge is, well you'll all be happy to know that today's challenge is themed around sports!"

Some faces began to light up, specifically the athletes like Lightning, Jo and Tyler.

"Aw yeah! Lightning's gonna carry his team all the way to victory!"

"Sports? It's Like McLean wants those loser Tigers to be humiliated." Most of the Heroic Tigers rolled their eyes at Jo's obnoxious comments.

"Oh really?!" Tyler began shouting. "Well guess what, you're going down! Because my team, will eat you for breakfast, lunch and dinner!"

The insulting stopped as everyone began looking at Tyler weird. Even Chris and Chef were slightly confused and even weirded out by Tyler's odd comments. Even his own teammates knew what Tyler had said was just flat out weird.

Jo proceeded to add more fuel to Tyler's embarrassing fire. "You'll get that zinger next time."

"Moving on," Chris continues. "Yes, today's challenges are all about Sports. If necessary because of a tiebreaker, there will be three sports themed challenges. The Interns are currently setting up the first challenge as we speak, by the time we get there, they should be done setting it up, follow me." Everyone followed Chris.


Soon, the contestants found themselves inside the forest walking with Chris. "We'll be arriving at the first challenge site shortly, pick up the paste people."

Soon everyone came to a halt. There was a very large pile of bowling pins. Some were gold, some were silver and some were bronze. These piles stretched a very good distance, one Chris didn't bother counting.

Confessional (Noah): "I've never been big on sports, I'm still not, as evidenced by the dodgeball challenge in season one, but things are different now, with my gal Emma here, and Owen on the other team, I've seriously got to step my game up."

Static*

Chris began explaining the rules of the game. "This is a challenge I like to call...Total...Faux...Bowling!"

Most of the competitors snickered at the host's attempt at dramatizing the name, much to his chagrin. But he continued explaining the rules regardless.

"The rules are simple guys, each player on both teams will be randomly matched against one another. Said players will be given three rolls each." On cue, Chef came in pulling two heavy carts of bowling balls. One could tell the Co-Host was obviously sweating and exhausted. "Whomever knocks over the most pins and gains the higher amount of points, wins. If you'll all look, there's three different colored pins. The gold pins are worth ten points, the silver ones worth five and the crappy bronze is worth three."

Soon a fake cough was heard. "Excuse me Chris?"

"Yes Courtney?" He was clearly annoyed.

"I would like to know how how you plan on tracking and keeping up with the score."

"Relax Court, I've got the Interns on standby monitoring the challenge on cameras, there will be a fair winner here."

The CIT seemed satisfied enough with this answer.

"Now if there are no more questions, we can get started. The first lineup will be...Cody Vs Noah."

Both of the geeks awkwardly looked at each other from their opposing teams. Owen was even slightly taken by this interesting lineup. Soon they stepped up and readied themselves for the challenge, but not before gaining some encouragement from their peers.

"Good luck Noah, win it for us." Said Emma as she planted a quick peck on the cheek.

The Code-Meister on the other hand, received what some would consider a physical legal offense.

"Good luck Cody, win it for ussss." Sierra growled flirtatiously as if she were a cougar while massaging his shoulders, which made The Code-Ster feel very much violated.

Nearby, Cody's conniving teammate Amy watched this was a mischievous smile on her face.

Confessional (Amy): "It's all coming in to play, just watch."

Static*


The Brainiac and Code-Ster were lined up with bowling balls in their hands. They were concentrated on the challenge and nothing more.

Chris sounded off an airhorn signaling that Cody and Noah could use their first roll. Cody went first. The Code-Meister chucked his bowling ball and knocked over two bowling pins, much to the disappointment of some of his teammates and the amusement of his rivals on the Villainous Lions. He knocked over four bronze bowling pins.

"Lame," Said Chris from the sidelines. "Cody manages to score a measly twelve points. Seriously dude, haven't you ever been bowling before?"

"Sierra distracted me man, give me a break."

"Right, anyways, Noah your up."

It was now the Brainiac's first turn. Unlike Cody he calculated the exact angle of the pins he wanted to target. After some quick calculations, he took his turn. He nailed one golden pin, and four more silver pins, earning a total of thirty points.

"Noah strikes out hard and earns thirty points the first try! Not bad, not bad at all Noah."

The Brainiac was welcomed by cheers and looks of approval from a fair share of his fellow teammates.

Then, "Way to go Noah buddy, good try!"

"Ummm Owen?" The Lovable Bag Of Joy turned and saw Courtney eyeing him suspiciously. "Noah is on the other team, cheering for him doesn't help us win." This earned her slight criticism from Gwen.

"Court chill out," The Goth Girl continued, "Owen is friends with Noah after all,"

"But Gwen, he's on the.-" The CIT just gave up, sounding obviously defeated. The game between Noah and Cody continued and eventually wrapped up, both geeks got respectable points from this round.


"Next up we've got Samey Vs Amy! Twins your up." Samey was more so shocked and slightly nervous while her evil sister merely had a grin on her face.

"Your finished Samey, I'm the better sister and the better athlete."

The Good Twin tried to ignore her, and continued to focus on the challenge. Ignore Amy was all she thought in her mind. Prove to her that I'm not a pushover was another thought. After taking a deep breath, both twins stepped up, grabbed a bowling ball and readied themselves for the game. Chris sounded off the airhorn and Amy went first.

The Evil Twin rolled and knocked over two gold pins and two silver pins, earning an impressive score of thirty points. It even impressed Chris.

"Not bad Amy, Amy scores thirty points on her first roll, can her sweet and nice sister hold up to this? I doubt it."

Soon the Good Twin stepped up and it was now her turn. She took a deep breath. For Jasmine she thought, and then finally rolled. Samey was ready for the berating from his sister and crueler teammates, but instead she heard...

"And Samey knocks over three golden pins and one silver, just slightly higher than her sister, good job Samey."

She actually beat her sister at something and Chris even remotely praised her. Some of her team even cheered her or at least gave her a small look of approval. It was all to real, while Amy on the other hand couldn't believe this. On the inside, she was irate.

Confessional (Amy): "Seriously, she just got lucky, and it won't happen again."

Static*


After the Twins finished up their brief matchup, Amy bitterly walked back towards her teammates. Sierra didn't help lighten the Evil Twin's mood.

"OMG, Your sister's fans are going to love this!" The fangirl immediately began typing frantically on her smartphone, most likely updating Samey's followers on what had just transpired. Amy twitched in anger, but hid it. That's when she saw someone nearby.

Cody

A mischievous smile formed and she walked over to The Self-Proclaimed Ladies Man. "Listen up dorkling, I can help you with the one thing that you want."

The Code-Meister looked up at the Evil Twin, out of both confusion and curiosity.

"If we do end up losing the challenges today, I can help you guarantee that the creep goes home, you just have to do something for me,"

"And why would I take a deal from you," Cody obviously wasn't buying what she was selling. Sierra going home would be nice, but he didn't exactly trust this girl or know anything about her outside of her history with Samey. "We don't even talk to each other, and I know the history between you and your sister, I saw you guys season."

"Because, if you don't, I can promise you, that I'll ruin the lives of everyone you care about." Amy pointed at Gwen. "Starting with her, I know you had some sort of weird crush on her, and are one of her friends, join my alliance and I can promise you, she's goes unharmed."

Confessional (Amy): "Of course I'm bluffing, I just need a few stepping stones to form an alliance with, and by using Pervy Cody's old crush on Gothy against, him, it's a done deal."

Static*

Cody thought about it, While he had accepted Gwen wasn't attracted to him in that way, that didn't mean he had to stop caring about her or her feelings. After his thought process was completed, he reluctantly added, "Fine."

"Good, pleasure doing business with you, and don't tell anybody about our agreement," Amy smiled happily almost as if she just did something genuinely nice, while Cody knew, he had just made a deal with the devil. Both continued watched the game go by.


The score of the game was closer to each other than before. Lighting had bested Tyler, bringing The Lions up to 85 points, The Heroic Tigers only trailed behind by a few points. Their total score was 75 points.

"Oh yeah! The Lighting never loses in sports! Or anything for that matter! Sha-Boom!"

Suddenly the Jock heard some yelling, "Sha-Shut-It and get out of the flipping way!" The voice of Heather was heard nearby, she shoved the dumb jock out of the way, much to his irritation. Unlike most of the other competitors who mostly rolled their balls like regular bowling balls, Heather instead chucked it and any pin in that path of The Diva's bowling ball would get crushed, literally.

Chris turned and faced the Villainous Lions. "Ouch, and Heather's raw Aggressiveness scores big for the Lions. Knocking over five golden bowling mins, You guys have a total of 135 thanks to Heather,"

The Queen Bee looked proud of her work. Naturally, she boasted about it to the rest of her team. "As expected, I always carry my team, can't you losers do anything right? Stop falling behind."

Most of her teammates rolled their eyes. Jo was particularly glaring daggers at her.

"You did good Mi Amor."

Heather turned in the direction of the voice. "I already told you Alejandro, it's Ex-Amor, now move it." She shoved him and walked past him, but this rarely bothered The Latino.

Confessional (Jo): "If alligator skin thinks she can run this team, she's got another thing coming." The Jockette leaned back and kicked her feet up. "I'm the leader of this team, and my first order of business is getting rid of that skinny little twig."

Static*


After the brief altercation with Heather calmed down, Chris turned to the contestants once again. "Alright guys, this round will be the final game of the first challenge, it's 75-135, The Villainous Lions have a massive lead, Tigers, it'll take a miracle for you guys to come back. Now for this last matchup, it'll be Duncan."

The Ex-Con stepped up unfazed with no worry. He was ready for whatever Chris throws his way. "Whatever, let's just get this over with."

"And Duncan, your opponent will be...Gwen."

This made both of the competitors feel very awkward and uncomfortable. More so on Duncan's end up rather than Gwen.

Confessional (Duncan): "Man, Chris really knows how to make things worse for no reason."

Static*

"Both of you step up and get ready." Chris called out.

Before Gwen stepped up, Courtney had some interesting words of encouragement for her friend, "You got this, kick his green headed butt, not just because he's annoying, but because we really need this miracle."

"Yeah, I'll keep that in mind," Gwen meekly replied.

Soon the ex-couple lined up with bowling balls in hand, ready to strike. The awkwardness was felt by everybody in the air.

Seeing the opportunity was there, Duncan tried to make small talk. "Sooo, this is awkward, right?"

"Duncan, please don't try and talk to me, this is already weird enough as it is, I don't need any unnecessary distractions."

Taking the hint, the Ex-Con sighed with full disappointment and respectfully complied with her wishes. Unknown to either of them, Zoey looked on, full of worry.

Confessional (Zoey): "This is going to be a lot more difficult than expected."

Static*


Gwen had rolled twice and had managed to bring the Heroic Tigers up to 95 points, but this still was no where near enough to snatch up the win. Duncan, on the other hand was very distracted and couldn't seem to do as well. He missed entirely his first try. And his second try he only knocked over one silver pin. This barley did anything except bring the Lions from 135 to 140. Chris chuckled.

"Wow Duncan, gotta say, I'm disappointed Dude, I'd expect this from Cody or even Noah, but not you, is something distracting you?"

"Can it Chris!" The Ex-Con tried to focus, but he couldn't, He was too distracted by Gwen's unwillingness to talk to him. He angrily rolled his final attempt, but the result wasn't pretty, he didn't score anything. Chris chuckled.

"Wow, that stinks, and Duncan blows, this could be Gwen's chance to win it for her team."

Jo definitely wasn't happy, "Way to go Dunce-Can."

And neither was Heather, "And they say prison makes you tougher, now we know that's not true." The Ex-Con twitched in anger, but kept his composure in check. Zoey once again watched him worriedly.

After everyone settled down, Chris spoke. "The Villainous Lions still have a decent lead, and Gwen has one last roll left, can she win it for the Heroic Tigers with a miracle or will she lose it all for her team."

Gwen took a deep breath, and took the final roll. She knocked over five golden pins. Chris announced the winners. "And thanks to Gwen's good aim knocking over five golden pins, The Heroic Tigers take their score from 95 to 145, beating the Lions score of 140."

The Heroic Tigers all cheered and praised Gwen, while The Villainous Lions all looked disappointed.

Confessional (Duncan): "So what? My aim was off," He sighed in defeat knowing full and well that wasn't the case.

Static*

"Wow, that's just shocking, Duncan, you blew it dude." Duncan flipped off Chris, who laughed in return. "Anyways, if you follow me, we're all heading deeper into the forest for the next challenge."


A short walk later, Chris and the competitors were deeper into the woods, but there was no challenge set up, at least in the competitors point of view.

"Uh Chris, I don't know if this is a practical joke or you being a cheapskate, but there's no challenge, like anywhere in sight."

The Host looked partially offended. But explained. "Relax Noah, if you'll let me explain, we are at the challenge site. We're gonna be using the forest again! This time in a game of manhunt dodgeball!"

Some of the contestants looked confused, disappointing Chris again. He got more specific in explaining. "You guys are totally off world today, let me explain. In this nod to the dodgeball challenge from season one, teams will have to compete against each other in a game of dodgeball, only this time, instead of playing in a secured gym, you'll be hunting each other down in the woods."

Now the smiles and looks of approval could be seen now that the challenge makes a little more sense.

"The rules of dodgeball still apply, you get hit, your out, If you catch the ball, the thrower of said ball is out. In the forest, Chef and the interns have set up two cages full of dodgeballs for your designated team, blue for the Villains, Orange for the Heroes, last person or people standing for their team, wins, and obviously the losers send someone home."

Confessional (Jo): "This is a challenge I can get behind, crush them competition on the other team, carry MY TEAM, to victory."

Static*

Chris still had a few more things to say. "Oh and before you go," Soon an intern appeared, wheeling a tv monitor. "Stay away from these areas of the Island," Two hidden silhouettes of a very large bird and a large lizard appeared pinned on two different areas of forest. Chris laughed. "I know I don't give you all much of a reason to, but TRUST ME on this one guys, you do not want to be caught up in these areas."

Most of the competitors nodded.

"Good, now since the Tigers won the first of our three challenges today, they get a fifteen minute head start to find their dodgeballs, NOW GO!" Chris let off an airhorn and the Heroic Tigers ran off into the forest.


"Alright guys, let's move it, the quicker we find our balls, the faster we can beat those stupid Lions and get in that hotel." Courtney had taken the leadership role of her team, she was dead set on winning this game, and nothing was going to stop her.

Gwen turned to her, giving her the support a friend needs. "We've so got this Court,"

"Them sweet baby Lions won't know what hit them upside they head!" Leshawna added.

Owen for one, was arguably the most excited of the bunch as this challenge involved hunting, and the Big Guy enjoyed the hunting of his prey dearly. "Nothing will stop the naturalist from obtaining his prey, The Naturalist always wins in the end."

Sierra was pulling Cody along against his will. "Owen your fans will be THRILLED! Am I right Cody? Cody? HEY!" While The Big Guy smiled at his compliment, Cody was too busy trapped with his inner thoughts to even worry about Sierra's usual antics, he couldn't take his mind off of Amy's blackmailing of him.

Confessional (Cody): "I feel terrible about what I'm doing, but I won't risk Gwen's well-being," The Codester sighed in defeat and continued suffering with his inner thoughts.

Static*

Tyler was too hyperactive to notice this. "Oh yeah! To the extreme! This time, we aren't losing this game."

Mike wasn't worried about anything, all he wanted to do was see a certain 'red head' that was his girlfriend, he missed her dearly and the only thing on his mind was to see Zoey.

Amy, not really being friends or liking anyone on her team for that matter, just grinned to herself. Things were going according to plan thus far, and it was only just beginning. This season is so mines was all she thought as she continued to help search for her team's dodgeballs.

But unknown to the Evil Twin, Dawn merely eyed her cautiously. The Moon Child sensed more 'dark energy' coming from this girl's aura.

Confessional (Dawn): "The dodgeball game was the perfect way for me to read everyone's aura on both teams, and the negative energy is still emitting from Amy's aura, I will have to keep an eye on her."

Static*


The Heroic Tigers soon found their cage of dodgeballs. Once everyone was armed, they began to make a game plan of how they could win and avoid the tiebreaker.

Courtney turned to Gwen. "Me and you? If at least two of us stick together, should our teammates get picked off, there's at least two of us left to give us a chance."

Gwen playfully eyed The CIT. "Are you just trying to stick with someone just in case of an ambush?"

Courtney looked dumbfounded. Before she could say anything, "Just kidding, good luck guys." Gwen and Courtney grabbed a dodgeball and walked off into the forest to hunt the opposing team.

Soon Leshawna grabbed a dodgeball. The Sistah had a determined grin on her face. She looked over to Owen. "Don't douse yourself in pee this time, okay big guy?" The Sistah walked off into the expanded wilderness. The Naturalistic Big Buy merely laughed and grabbed a dodgeball.

"The Naturalist shall hunt down his enemy prey, this spirit cannot be broken." The Big Guy soon left.

After this happened, "We should stick together Cody." This was followed by a frantic and crazed scream. Sierra grabbed two dodgeballs and then the Code-Meister's hand. Soon the pair disappeared into the woods to begin their hunting.

Tyler grabbed two balls and disappeared. Shortly following this, Mike soon armed himself and walked off, leaving only the Evil Twin, Amy.

She was finally glad the rest of her loser team was gone. But then she remembered the 'weird creepy girl'. She could've sworn she was just here, but to the Twin's surprise, she wasn't anywhere in sight. Amy just gave up, grabbed a dodgeball and walked into the woods, with evil intentions on her mind.


Sometime after the Heroic Tigers left to find their dodgeballs, Chris had finally let the Villainous Lions go off and find their ammo as well. They found it in a much shorter period of time than anticipated, so everyone had armed themselves for the challenge.

"Alright team," Jo started, "Here's the plan, we spread out, find those losers and crush them, sounds simple enough?"

Surprisingly, in spite of Jo's irritating ego, most of the team agreed upon the plan. The Villainous Lions all dispersed into the woods.


"Sha-Bam! You can't stop the Lightning!" A battle of Jock Vs Jock was going on between Lightning and Tyler, and it was intense. Neither one of the athletes were giving an inch. Tyler tried his hardest to hit Lightning, but to no avail, vice versa for Lightning.

"You're good, but you're going down Lightning!"

The Dumb Jock turned towards Tyler as he ran. "Same to you I guess, The Lightning respects you, athlete to athlete, but only one of us can go down, and Lightning doesn't plan on losing son," Tyler attempted to throw his dodgeball at Lightning, but the fellow jock's athletic instincts easily saw this coming and dodged it. Now Tyler had wasted his ball, and before he could attempt to retreat back to his team's base to get a new one, Lightning threw his dodgeball and caught a direct hit on Tyler's midsection.

As the season one vet held his stomach in pain, Chris came on the loudspeaker, "Ouch! Lightning scores big for The Lions with a direct hit, Tyler is out! Report back to base pronto."

"Oh yeah, Lightning scores the first point for his team! Sha-Boom!" The Dumb Jock began smooching with his biceps as Tyler disappointedly began heading back towards the campground as Chris instructed.

The Heroic Tigers, wherever they all were all heard this and we're all disappointed that they were the first with a teammate down.


Owen was busy being tracking down any 'prey'. It had been a good twenty minutes to maybe a half hour and he still hadn't found anyone thus far. The Naturalist was patient, he wanted his prey to come towards him.

Owen soon heard a rustle in one of the nearby bushes. Without thinking he crept slowly towards the bush. "The Naturalist always finds his prey, his prey will never escape." The Big Guy hurled his dodgeball Into the bush, thinking it was another competitor, but he soon wished he hadn't done that.

A pissed off grizzly bear stood before The Naturalist with the dodgeball it had thrown at him. Owen chuckled nervously and realized the bad situation he was in. "I'm sorry Mr Bear, let me get that from you," He grabbed the ball from the angered bear and immediately made a run for it, screaming for his life as it roared and chased him.


"You see anybody Cody?" A familiar crazed superfan tried speaking to Cody, but to no avail. "Um, hello? Number one fan here talking to you?"

The Code-Meister didn't even bother talking to Sierra, in fact he looked as if he had done something he'd regret. After a few minutes went by, the pair heard the breaking of a branch on the ground. The two dove behind a bush and saw another player. Although Sierra much quicker than Cody.

Scott...

And the Farm Boy was lonesome with a dodgeball in his hand. "Cody, it's Scott. Let's get ready on three." The unlikely duo readied their dodgeballs to eliminate Scott.

"On three, One...Two...Three! Hey Scott!" The Farm Boy turned to see Sierra yelling like a warrior queen. Cody on the other hand wasn't as sharp and focused. Two Dodgeballs flew his direction until someone effortlessly managed to catch the both of them.

Alejandro...

The Latino had his trademark smile sported. "And I believe you two are out of the game."

"Alejandro..." Sierra and Cody said at the same time.

Soon Chris came upon the intercom. "And Alejandro being as good as he is easily saves Scott's butt, Sierra, Cody? You're out! Report back to base pronto!"

The two reluctantly began heading back to the campground, leaving Scott and Alejandro there by themselves.

Scott dryly showed a small form of gratitude, "Thanks man, I owe you one."

The Latino smiled, knowing this is just what he needed. "Well in that case my farmer brethren, I have an intriguing offer for you, join me and Lightning in our alliance, together I am sure we can make the final three together and avoid elimination. What do you say my friend?"

It didn't take long for Scott to give Al an answer. "You've got yourself a deal." The two both had grins on their faces.

Confessional (Scott): "This wasn't apart of my original plan, but now that it is, might as well as use this alliance to my advantage, I'll take a free alliance to manipulate and use any day of the week."

Static*


Unbeknownst to Alejandro and Scott, Leshawna crept up on them with two dodgeballs in hand. "Sorry boys, game set, match to The Sistah!" She quickly hurled them at Scott and Alejandro one at a time, but fast. She connected with Scott's face and Alejandro's stomach.

"Leshawna tu serpiente!" Alejandro was greatly angered that he was caught off guard while Scott was busy seeing stars and other worlds. Leshawna stood triumphantly over the two alliance members.

Confessional (Leshawna): "That felt good! I been wanting to get back at that two timing male Heather since World Tour."

Static*

While Leshawna began to leave from Scott and Al, she didn't realize that her old rival Heather had launched a dodgeball directly at her. She nailed Leshawna right in the kisser.

The Queen Bee laughed and gloated at The Sistah. "Oops sorry ghetto glamor, not." The Sistah merely glared.

The voice of Chris blared through the intercom. "And with that, both sides of the war have lost, Alejandro, Scott and Leshawna, you three are out! Report back to camp."

Soon the said three eliminated players began to head in the direction of the campground, but not before Alejandro casted a small glance at his complicated love interest, who either didn't seem to notice or she just didn't care.

Suddenly a dodgeball gently dropped from above, hitting Heather and eliminating her from the game. The Queen Bee was infuriated. "Who the fu.-"

The voice of Chris was heard, "Wow, whoever threw that ball, it was lame, but it got the job done, Heather, your out. Report back to camp."

It was soon revealed that Dawn, whom was hidden and mysteriously gone the entire game had dropped the ball on Heather. She was perched on a tree in meditation form. The Queen Bee stormed off, flipping Dawn off in the process.

Confessional (Dawn): "Heather's aura is quite far from pure and good, some of the things I've learned about her are...scary, but for some reason, I sense a very small ounce of positivity from her."

Static*


Noah and The Sisters continuously made their way through the woods, on the hunt for any players on the opposing team. So far, they hadn't encountered trouble along the way. And they had managed to remain undetected most of the time.

"Three of us are taken out of the game," Noah began counting his fingers. "And four of them taken out on their end, that leaves eight on our side, and six on theirs."

Suddenly came the voice of Chris. "And Dawn takes out Jo with yet another lame throw, seriously, step up the ruthlessness Dawn, I'm getting bored."

The Sisters were astonished by the quickness of that and Noah reassessed his numbers. "Make that seven on our side, and six to theirs. I know Jo is probably fuming right now," Noah guessed. "No way she's ever gonna accept that."

Confessional (Jo): The Jockette was infuriated. She was fuming. She could not believe what had just happened. "I can't believe that freaky girl took me out. She'd better not think much of it."

Static*

"We need to stay sharp." Emma started. "We don't know where anyone could be, watching, waiting, or listening."

"Right," Noah added, agreeing with his girlfriend.

Kitty was more so focused on snapping selfies of herself, the Snarky Couple and the forest environment around them. She even snapped a pic of herself with her dodgeball in hand. "Guys, you really should lighten up, we don't have to be as intense as the rest of competition, we can win this thing in our own way."

Emma didn't agree. "Pfft, last time we did good, but we want to be greater Kit, we can't trust anyone, especially the sinister people on our team."

Noah nodded in agreement while Kitty rolled her eyes in annoyance. She loved that her sister and her boyfriend were motivated and focused, but she didn't want them to be to over the top with it.

Before anyone could say anything after, a bad smell took over the air. The Sisters covered their noses in disgust while Noah was barley phased. He knew that awful smell all to well. Suddenly, a badly beaten up Owen appeared in front of them. The quickness of his appearance threw everyone off guard resulting in Noah and the Bug Guy throwing their dodgeballs at each other.

Chris's voice was heard. "And with that, the Reality TV 'Jokes'." This host laughed at his pun. "Take each other out of the game. Both of you get back to base."

"OW! Owen?" Noah started, "Dude, what happened to you?"

"A Bear happened...took out..." The Big Guy was obviously out of it due to both being mauled by the Bear and chasing Lightning. "...Lightning, he is one tough dude to hunt down."

As The Brainiac held his nose in pain, Emma cut off the conversation, surprising everyone in the process. "I hate to be that girl that does this, but Owen, you do realize we're on different teams right?"

The Big Guy looked at her innocently before remembering she was right, they were on different teams this season, but Noah was his friend.

The Brainiac soon remembered this as well. "Oh yeah, Emma's right big guy, we'd better take off from each other before our team's get suspicious." The Brainiac hugged his lover before departing. Shortly after, a saddened Owen began to make his departure back to the campgrounds as well.

Confessional (Owen): "It's really tough not being able to hang out with Noah..." He had a look of doubt across his face. "Emma seems a lot more competitive than during The Race."

Static*

"You ready to win this thing Kit? Wanna stick together?"

Surprisingly, "No thanks Emma, I want to try and win this one by myself."

The Lawyer Girl, although initially surprised by this, nodded and with that the two sisters went their separate ways to complete the challenge.


Some time later, Duncan walked through the forest by himself with a dodgeball in hand. A decent amount of people had been taken out on his team during the challenge, and the Ex-Con didn't want to slow down and end up as one of them.

Confessional (Duncan): "Some of the people on my team thought I was soft in the bowling challenge, I'll show them, the first person to cross my path will get a one way ticket to Dodgeville, established Duncan."

Static*

Sometime later the Ex-Con heard a rustle in the bushes nearby nearby. Without hesitation he launched the dodgeball at whatever was inside of the bush. What he heard next surprised him.

"Ouch, Duncan,"

The sound of the voice came from Zoey, whom was now holding her head in pain. She innocently looked at the baffled Duncan standing before herself. "Z-Zoey, what are you doing? And why are you hiding in the bushes?"

"Well, I was trying to hide and avoid everyone in the challenge, figured that would be the best way to go since Chris never did say anything against hiding and avoiding the challenge until the time's right."

Duncan shrugged, satisfied enough before turning to walk off. Suddenly he felt his hand being pulled. "Wait, can we, stick together since you practically discovered my hiding spot and probably alerted someone? And I want to talk to you about some stuff."

"Uh, sure, I guess."

The pair walked off, with Zoey starting off the conversation between them. "So, what happened during the bowling challenge? With Gwen?"

"What do you mean?" Duncan clearly was trying to avoid talking about it.

"I mean, what happened during the bowling challenge? You looked like very distracted, and even when you did score, you only struck silver and only scored once."

"I uh, was just a little rusty, it's not like they had us playing bowling when I was locked up."

"Duncan," The Indie Chick placed her hands on her hips. "Don't lie to me, I don't want to see you thrown off of your game like this, Whatever is distracting you, just tell me the truth, And I don't want to see you go home early, I'm pretty sure that Heather and Jo won't hesitate to give you a vote if we don't win today."

He sighed, defeated, before answering. "It's just hard that Gwen refuses to give me the benefit of the doubt, and it stinks, maybe this whole 'being a nice person' sucks and won't work out."

"Easy," The Indie Chick put her hand on his shoulder. "It just takes time, now come on." The two ventured off to find more players, but what they didn't know was that someone else was listening in on some bits and pieces of their conversation.


"Oh man, this can't be...why Zoey?" Mike some short time ago had discovered Zoey and Duncan talking to each other and he didn't like it one bit. Wanting to no longer see them talking to each other like this, Mike stepped out. "Uh, hey guys, how's it going so far?"

Duncan, no wasting anytime quickly through his ball at Mike, hitting him with a direct shot, and taking him out of the game, much to Mike's annoyance and to Zoey's surprise. "Ow, dude what was that for?!"

"It's a challenge dorkwad, not a tea party, take a hit or go home."

The two shot looks of annoyance towards one another as Zoey kept the situation from escalating further.

To make matters worse, the voice of Chris was heard. "And with that, Mike is out," The host laughed. "Dude stalked his girlfriend and ended up with a dodgeball to his sternum."

"Easy guys." Zoey started. "And Mike, were you truly spying on me as Chris said?" Realizing the debacle he was in, Mike quickly thought of an answer. Suddenly it came to him.

"Um no, it was just a coincidence, you guys know how Chris is, likes to create unnecessary tension between us contestants." The Formerly Multiplied Mike chuckled nervously. Surprisingly, his girlfriend bought it.

"True, Chris loves making things more dramatic than they should be, anyways, you should get back to the camp,"

Suddenly a dodgeball came flying aggressively and nailed Zoey directly in the face, sending her flying into the ground. without much time to react, Duncan threw his ball and at the same time had barley managed to catch the ball that was thrown at him. He had managed to eliminate Gwen, which surprised him.

Mike and Duncan then immediately looked over to see who attacked Zoey, and it was in the form of Mike's teammate, Courtney, who looked more annoyed than usual.

"So your sabotaging our team because of your girlfriend? I knew you weren't trustworthy, Mike."

"Take it easy Court," Gwen started. "Mike would never do anything like that."

"No way, Gwen, I literally saw him talking to Zoey and Doofcan." The Ex-Con shot an annoyed glance at his ex.

He wanted to say something, especially to Gwen, but Zoey gave him the look that said walk away, and focus only on the challenge at hand. So he did just that. After Duncan, reluctantly left the scene, The Indie Chick then started sticking up for her boyfriend. "Hey, he'd never purposely sabotage his entire team, that's not like Mike, Courtney."

"Whatever, if we lose here, AGAIN, I know who's going home today." Mike gulped out of fear, as it didn't take a rocket scientist to figure out whom The CIT & Future Lawyer was referring to.


Later, Samey was walking by herself through the woods, she had heard the small and brief fiasco that went down between some of her teammates and the other team and steered clear of it. In fact, she had even saw the ones who were eliminated walking back towards the camp.

Confessional (Samey): "I figured my best bet was to avoid being detected and to try and catch the other team when their off guard and by themselves."

Static*

The Nice Twin had managed to get a good distance further into the woods when suddenly, she felt something tap her on the back lightly. And what that was, an orange ball. Although it didn't hurt her, she wasn't really hurt by the ball. In fact, it was almost as if the person who tapped her, wasn't actually trying to hurt her.

"You have a very bright future this season, Samantha..."

Samey looked perplexed, Who in the world was this? Who just called me by my name? The Nice Twin turned around and saw Dawn sitting on the ground in a mediation form. Now Samey was even more confused than before. "How do you know my name?"

"I read peoples auras, and yours is full of kindness and determination, don't let anyone try and change you, keep the ones that are close to you in your circle, and shine bright over the negative energy in this dreadful game." Samey didn't know what it was, but she interpreted it as advice and maybe even a warning of something to come. She wondered what exactly the negative energy was, but before she could ask Dawn more questions, she looked at the spot she the Moon Child was sitting at not that long ago.

Dawn was no longer there...


"Where is everyone? haven't seen anyone since I left Emma back there." Kitty had moved around the forest a lot since parting ways with her sister. She hadn't discovered anyone yet, but she seemed to have a good perspective on the challenge. So far things were going good thus far.

But soon she would have a small problem on her hands, and that would come in the form of a smiling and conniving twin sister of one of her friends.

Confessional (Amy): "Believe me, I would've loved to smack Samey across the face with a rubber ball, but like the loser she is, got taken out before I got to her, so Kitty would have to do, and besides, I owe her some payback from the previous episode's challenge anyways."

Static*

Amy prepped herself to throw the dodgeball at the unsuspecting Kitty, whom was snapping selfies around the environment once more. Amy threw the ball, fully ready to strike Kitty down for the count. But instead of sounds of painful groaning, she looked rather surprised and unharmed.

Both girls looked over and saw that Duncan had caught the ball, saving the butt of Kit and thus eliminating Amy in the process. And then came the voice of the Host With The Most.

"And with a smooth move from Duncan, Amy is out! Get back to camp pronto."

"Ugh! No fair!" The Bad Twin marched off angrily past the two Villainous Lions.

Duncan soon began to walk off, seeing his work was done here, the Ex-Con saw no point In standing there. Suddenly, "Thank you, Duncan." Then the Ex-Con found himself being forcefully pulled into a selfie. He didn't know what to make of it at first.

"What are you doing?" He sounded almost annoyed.

"Taking a selfie, what's it look like?"

Before anything could progress further, the pair found themselves, like Samey before, being tapped lightly on their backs.

"I believe you are out, my friends..."

Duncan and to an extent, Kitty were both taken by surprise as Dawn appeared before them. Like before, she was in meditation form.

Chris was heard from the intercom once again, "And Dawn, somehow and some creepy way manages to eliminate two more people, Duncan, Kitty, you two are done, get back to camp, over."

"Great, just great, you just cost us the challenge, sweetheart." The sarcasm and annoyance in Duncan's tone was heard by Kitty, whom was now annoyed by the rudeness of him.

"I didn't mean, I was just saying thank you."

"Yeah, well, it doesn't mean much now, the creepy chick got a two for one deal on us no-," The Ex-Con and Fun Sister stopped arguing as they saw something strange.

Dawn was no longer sitting in her spot...

Ugh, why the hell did I agree to another season? With weird and annoying chicks Was the only thing that ran through Duncan's mind.


Later, Emma was carefully navigating by herself. She had heard the announcement that her sister and another teammate had been eliminated. So now that meant it was all up to her try and weasel out a win.

Confessional (Emma): "I knew we should've stuck together, I should've trusted my gut. But that doesn't mean I don't enjoy working with the odds against me." Emma had a confident smile, ready and determined.

Static*

About five minutes had passed, and no one had even confronted Emma.

"So, your name's Emma?"

"Who's asking?" The Snarky Law-Student looked unfazed and not impressed, "Just kidding, stop hiding from me, Courtney."

The CIT stepped out and made herself known to the fellow Lawyer. Surprisingly, the introduction wasn't what most would expect it to be. "Let's start off properly this time, my name's Courtney? Fellow future lawyer in the making."

"...Emma, current law student with curri.-hold on a second," Suddenly Emma saw a dodgeball coming her way, quick, but not enough to harm her. She caught it with little to no effort. "Nice try, but I don't get snuck up on so easily."

And Dawn appeared before the two. "Oh dear, it looks like I am eliminated my friends."

"And with that," Chris sounded like he was disturbed. "Dawn's creepy butt is out of here, just hurry up and get back here Dawn."

Dawn, satisfied with how she did during her tenure in the challenge walked off, she had no regrets. Before she left completely, "My friends, I wish you all the best, my ally," The Moon Child placed her hand on the shoulder of Courtney. "And my temporary and seasonal foe." Then on the shoulder of Emma. Finally she walked away.

The two Lawyer Girls, both just stood there, with dodgeballs In their hand.

Confessional (Courtney): "I like Emma, she's good, very formidable and relatable."

Static*

Confessional (Emma): "I actually like Courtney, she's good, very formidable and relatable."

Static*


"So, looks like it's just the two of us left," Emma shot a confident smile towards Courtney. "Try not to make this too easy now, okay?"

"Ha, you wish," Now Courtney was smiling. "Only one of us can win for our respective teams, let's go."

The two girls immediately began darting off in the same direction with Emma being the chaser, and Courtney being the chasee. The two of them were well-matched against one another, as they were able to keep up with each other's pacing. Courtney nearly struck Emma a few times, and Emma just barley avoided being touched. Secretly, the two of them enjoying how difficult it was to overtop the other. Courtney and Emma were giving each other a challenge, with neither one of the girls wanting to let up.

"So, Emma, What's it like being a university law student?"

"It's easy," Emma started as she ran and dodged, "always focused, at the top of all my classes, respected by every single one of my professors, getting my degree is gonna be so worth it in the end."

The CIT was impressed. "Interesting, so why'd you decide to compete in this dump of a reality show?"

Before Emma could answer, an annoyed Chris came on the intercom. "No one wants to see you two chitchat, someone hurry up and hurt the other already, and this show IS NOT, a dump, got that?"

The two girls realized that one way or another someone had to win the challenge. Realizing this, Emma tried throwing her dodgeball at Courtney, but since the CIT was fully ready for it, she dodged it with ease. Now Emma was out of a ball. She was to far away to try and run back to her team's dodgeball cage. Now Courtney had her cornered.

"Game over, Emma, I must say, you are very formidable, and personally, I like you, but lawyer to lawyer, you've got to go down." Courtney threw the ball at Emma, and she fell back on the ground. "And scores one for Courtney,"

Then randomly, "And the Villainous Lions win, just barley!"

"WHAT?!"

Courtney looked down on the ground to see that Emma had just managed to catch the ball, and that had meant Courtney was out, as she was the thrower, the CIT couldn't believe it, the win was snatched from under her.

"Looks like I still managed to pull through in the end," Emma began smiling confidently. "But you definitely didn't make it an easy one Courtney." The Law Student offered her hand out for a handshake. Courtney, being the person that she was, at first was reluctant, but returned it. Then came the voice of Chris once more.

"With Emma's miracle win, that means we're going to solve this with the tiebreaker challenge! Back to the campground girls, you aren't gonna want to miss this one."


Soon Emma and Courtney returned to the campground where Chris and everyone would be waiting for them. After they walked back to their respective teams, Chris finally began.

"Now that was fun, wasn't it?" The competitors didn't share the same enthusiasm as Chris, as most were either to exhausted or too annoyed to care. The host was annoyed. "Moving on, thanks to Emma pulling out the win from the wishing well and bringing the Lions some hope, we now have to go to the epic tiebreaker challenge, and trust me guys, you're gonna get a kick out of this one. If you'll all follow me."

Soon Chris, Chef and the teams arrived at another area on the Island. There was a cover, similar to the one Alejandro and Duncan used in Sweden during World Tour, blocking something from their view. Naturally, this drew attention from the cast, which Chris and Chef took notice to.

"Originally, we weren't gonna do this challenge had the Heroic Tigers managed to get the clean two zip sweep, but obviously that did not happen, so here we are now, at the site of our tiebreaker challenge, the interns are busy fixing up the last few bits and scraps of the challenge. In a few short moments, I will reveal to you the challenge."

Confessional (Jo): "This next challenge needed to be my redemption challenge, no way could I let, L-aw-Ful-School, Emma, bring the team a win without me being involved in grabbing it somehow, the only reason I didn't win the last round was because that little freak, Dawn, snuck up on me, never again will that happen, I promise you."

Static*

"And now, competitors, I present to you, the ultimate tiebreaker challenge!" Chris gave the signal for Chef to move the cover, which he did. Soon, the competitors saw a wall that surrounded a man-made and muddied arena. The walls were naturally poorly constructed as everyone could see nails that were still sticking out of the structure and some pieces of wood not hammered down all the way. The further emphasis how unsafe it was, a piece of wood fell off, landing in front of Chris in the process. While the competitors looked concerned and some even nervous, the host only laughed. "I like to call this game, The Smear-Gen Brawl."

"And how exactly does this concocted death trap you call a challenge work, Chris?"

"I'm glad you asked Noah, here's how it works. In this wall surrounded and muddied arena, Three members from each team at a time will battle with each other for control over the three balls that are provided. Once a contestant gains control over a ball, they would pass it to their other teammates who are standing on an elevated platform. The players on the platform would attempt to throw the ball through the moving baskets on each respective side. One point would be scored with each basket. Whichever team has the most points at the end of the game wins, the losers will obviously send someone home."

"Okay, woah, this looks and sounds really barbaric and dangerous," Zoey for one was not eager about this challenge.

"That's because it is Zoey, the interns tested out the challenge with each other, and it took so much of a physical strain on their body, they are gonna be in the infirmary for a while." While Chris and Chef chuckled, some of them looked at him annoyed. He took notice of this. "What? It was either this or or tampered dodgeballs, you guys should be fine, you've all dealt with way worse on this show over the years, now, enough whining and complaining, let's get this show on the road already."

The teams stepped on their respective team platforms.

"You've all got five minutes to decide who your first three people are, then, it's muddy rumble time."

"Okay, team," Jo started, "It's three people at a time, and if we want to win, I suggest we take the lead early, so I say we send in our most athletic players first, the weaklings, being Red, No-It-All, Kit-Kat, and Goldilocks here," Zoey, Noah, Samey and Kitty all looked offended and annoyed. "Should be saved for later when we actually have the lead and those losers over there, have little to no chance of stealing annoying win."

"Pfft whatever Jo, The Lightning should be able to do this one on his own without any help."

"Hey, I'm not a weakling, I'm just as athletic and gifted as anyone of us here." Said Zoey, who's hands were on her hips.

"That's right, who do you think you are Jo?" Kitty added. Samey, not wanting to get into a fight, decided to stay quiet.

Confessional (Samey): "Uhh, go team, go?" The Nice Twin looked more so nervous and confused.

Static*

"Ugh, just shut it already!" Everyone turned to see a glaring Ex-Con known as Duncan. "I'm taking charge now, it'll be me, Alejandro and Scott first, there, problem solved, any objections?" The perplexed Villainous Lions all looked at each, then at Duncan. Seeing as it was a start, they all shrugged or nodded.

Confessional (Duncan): "Man that felt good, but seriously, they were all giving me a headache, I had to take charge and do what I do best."

Static*


Over with The Heroic Tigers, they were busy deciding who they were gonna send in first. Most of them looked very, no really, very reluctant.

Especially Owen, "Uhhh, so, who wants to go first?"

Nobody spoke up. And rightfully so.

Suddenly, an irritated female voice started speaking. "There's no way, I'm rolling around in mud, SpareAmy does that, but not me, I'm too fabulous to be seen doing something like that."

Then came, "Oh, your doing it, we ain't losing two in a row because of some skinny and spoiled rich little white girl." Leshawna was glaring at Amy, who was doing the same in return.

"You need to watch it big butt, trust me, the last thing you want to do is cross my path."

"Uh-Excuse me, I know you did not just diss Shawny's backside, at least I have something to shake back th.-"

"Enough!"

Everyone turned towards Gwen. "We don't have much time to decide, all that matters is that we want to win, so let's get this over with."

"Yes." Dawn started, "My friends, while I am not a fan of such barbaric methods, we must figure out a plan of the sorts."

"Yeah, Gwen's right," Courtney stood firmly. "All that matters is that we beat those losers over there and get into that Spa Hotel, so here's how we're going to do this, Cody, Mike and Tyler are going first and that's final! Got that?"

Amy and Leshawna looked at each other with pure hatred. Realizing that Gwen and Courtney both made a good point, they turned away from each other.

"Yeah baby! To the extreme, we've so got this game in the bag. Right guys?" Tyler offered his fist for a bump towards Mike and Tyler. The said two reluctantly bumped him back in return.

"Yeah, go team." Mike said, nervously.

Cody was nervous, but he wasn't gonna outright say it. "Yeah dudes, we've so got this, and this challenge gives us a chance to show the ladies we're tough."

Suddenly, Sierra appeared behind Cody, flirtatiously trying to talk to him. "You're always strong in my eyes, Cody, Rawrrrrr."

Cody, remembering a certain blackmail he was apart of earlier, guiltily, walked away from Sierra, who was now greatly confused.

Confessional (Sierra): "Something's wrong with my Cody-Cam, he would normally say something cute like "Sierra Stop! Or Ow, Sierra, Quit it!" Something is soooo, not right here."

Static*


The five minutes were up, and Chris was ready for the competitors that were ready, to present themselves. "Alright guys, that's five minutes, present to me your three players so we can get this thing going, Lions?"

Jo begrudgingly presented, "We've got Dudling, Scotch and Ale-Lamedro. Try not to let your Ex-Funeral Reject distract you." The Ex-Con gritted his teeth and ignored her.

The three named Lions stepped down into the mud, nearly falling and slipping on the way down. Chris nodded, approvingly.

"Tigers?"

Gwen presented her teammates. "Okay Chris, so we've got Cody, Mike and Tyler." The Three Heroic Tigers stepped down into the mud, and like their adversaries, nearly slipped and fell in the process.

"Alright, Chef? Present the balls."

Chef had three kickballs in his hand. He quickly launched them into the muddy arena, somehow lining them up perfectly with each other.

Alejandro, being the confident dude he was, made some small talk with his teammates. "Scott, Duncan, this should be a piece of cake, am I right amigos?"

Duncan merely ignored him, as he had a huge grin on his face, Only Scott acknowledged his fellow alliance member. "I beat Mike before In our first season, i can easily do it again."

Chris began the countdown. "Three...two...one! Go hurt each other! NOW!" The airhorn sounded and immediately the six competitors rushed towards the three balls. Cody and Duncan were in an intense tug of war, as was Alejandro and Tyler and Scott and Mike.

"Hey, DorkWad, watch yourself." Duncan intentionally tripped Cody. As the Code-Meister fell into the mud, he surprisingly had quick thinking and pulled Duncan down with him. In the process they both lost their grip on the ball they had.

"I don't think so, Duncan." Soon, the two found themselves trying to crawl towards their ball. Meanwhile, The clash between Mike and Scott as well as Tyler and Alejandro was beginning to get equally personal due to their past experiences with each other in previous seasons. Alejandro was goading Tyler into letting his guard down.

"Silly Tyler, you cannot possibly hope to best me in a contest of athleticism, I wonder what Lindsay is thinking right now, probably seeing how pathetic you are and how great I am."

Tyler was fueled with rage. No one insulted either him or his Lindsay. "Oh your going down, Al! Nobody talks about my Lindsay that way!" The Wannabe Jock attempted to tackle the Latino, but Alejandro easily avoided this by moving out of the way, letting Tyler get a face full of mud as his reward. Alejandro was the first to grab one of the three balls. He didn't waste time in attempting to get it to his teammates on their platform.

"Here, catch Lightning!" He tossed the muddy ball to fellow alliance member Lightning who didn't waste any time. He caught it with ease, but unfortunately, some mud from the ball had splashed on to Heather.

"Watch it Losers! Ugh!" The Queen Bee was mad, and Alejandro looked on with concern. Heather noticed this, and quickly turned away from her complicated lover, much to his disappointment.

Lightning didn't waste anytime In trying to score a point. "Oh yeah, stand back everyone, you've been struck by Lightning!"

"Just shut up, and throw it already! Jesus!" Emma shouted.

"I agree with Law School here," Jo added. "Just hurl the flipping thing already, Lightless."

The Dumb Jock, offended, hurled the ball over towards the other team's moving basket. It looked like it was going in, untiil...It missed, just by a margin. The basket moved out of the way right when the ball was bound to go it.

"Oh, too bad Lightning, you were close, but not good enough." Chris and Chef laughed at his misfortune.

Jo was annoyed. "Way to go, Whitening. You can't even do something of your specialty right."

"This is an outrage! I demand to to speak to Chris!"

The Villainous Lions all were annoyed.

Confessional (Lightning): "How dare the producers of Total Drama purposely try and make Lightning look bad? Sports is my specialty, and Lightning never fails at his specialty!"

Meanwhile, Duncan had managed to bury Cody in a pile of mud and take the second ball for his team in the process.

Scott on the other hand tried to throw some mud in Mike's face as a dirty tactic. The Farm Boy had an evil grin sprouting. "Game over, Mike."

"I don't think so Scott," Using the athletic skills Svetlana granted him, he managed to gracefully slide out of the way. While sliding, he managed to grab the ball out of Scott's hand. It was almost as if he were skating. In the process, he locked eyes with Zoey, whom was impressed with her boyfriend's skills and natural intelligence. But unfortunately for Mike, he wasn't paying attention.

Zoey realizing this to her horror called out. "Mike, Mike? Look out!"

The formerly Multiplied Mike quickly realized what was happening, he was skating full speed into a wall. He tried to stop himself but it was too late. He crashed full force into the wall, losing the ball in the process. Courtney was outraged by this, but luckily Mike had lost the ball and she had managed to catch it. Mike was completely out of it, and Zoey was horrified by what she had inadvertently done.

"What an idiot, but still, if it benefits us." The CIT caught the ball. She didn't waste anytime in throwing it towards the basket of the other team. She watched with anticipation and the result was...

In, the ball had went in.

Chris made the announcement. "And with that, Courtney strikes first, granting the Heroic Tigers their first point of the challenge." As a result, the currently present members of her team cheered for this, especially Gwen. The Goth Girl rushed in for a hug.

"Way to go, Court!"

Confessional (Courtney): "When I'm around Gwen, she makes my tough exterior thaw, she makes me want to be a better person, which is still a work in progress."

Static*


Some more time had passed and the tiebreaker challenge was getting brutal and messier by the minute. Nearly everyone was covered in mud and physical beaten and exhausted from going inside the arena. The score was tied 4-4.

Chris could see the sheer exhaustion on everyone's faces. "Man, you guys are insane," Everyone merely groaned in exhaustion, and probably annoyance as well. "So much time has went by and you guys are beaten up pretty badly, I'm almost certain most of you won't last long, and I don't want the producer's slicing my paycheck and luxurious life style in half as a result if all of you collapse from a heat stroke, so here's the deal, the score's tied four to four right now. Whichever team can score the next basket will win the challenge." This naturally got everyone's spirits lifted, but they were still pretty beaten up, so no one could really cheer. "Alright, now get to it."

The beat up competitors went back to trying to complete the challenge. While exhausted, everyone was determined.


Jo was busy wrestling for control of the ball from Leshawna, and neither one of them were letting their pride get shattered.

"Give it up Thunder Thighs, you can't possibly hope to beat me."

"Girl, I've faced scarier looking people at the mall and in the projects, you don't scare me."

Meanwhile not to far away from them, Samey and Amy once again ran into each other again. And they, like Leshawna and Jo were wrestling for control of the second ball. Amy was relentless in her pursuit.

Confessional (Amy): "And here's where my superior mind comes into play."

Static*

Amy feigned a cough. "You know, Samey, daddy is planning a surprise party if, no, when, I win this season and is inviting everyone that I know, obviously your not invited, daddy's betting a large amount of his money that I outlast everybody, including you."

This actually got to the Nice Twin, what Amy had said was pretty messed up, this distraction caused The Evil Twin to yank the ball out of her hands and pull Samey face first into the mud. Leshawna, whom was still nearby and had heard this did not approve of this.

"Yo, that's not cool, that's your sister, and where I'm from, we always look out for family!" While Leshawna's intentions were pure, it would cost her dearly.

"And where I'm from, we don't let our guard down, Haha." Jo had purposely tripped Leshawna, which allowed The Jockette to gain control of the ball. She immediately rushed towards her team's platform and handed threw it towards Heather. "Let's go, Queen Skimpy, don't just stand there."

"Obviously I'm not, Jo-Nathan." Heather fired back.

Amy, realizing her team had a chance to win, quickly rushed towards her team's platform and threw the ball towards her blackmailed alliance member and fellow teammate, Cody. "Hurry up dork, throw it and win this stupid game already, I want to take a shower already."

"Alright, alright already, Jesus." At the same time, Cody and Heather hurled the balls they were given from their teammates. The Heroic Tigers and Villainous Lions watched on with hope and anticipation. Both of the balls flew past each other in the air. It was almost as if they were racing each other. Then to everyone's surprise, both balls went through each net. Only Chris and Chef saw a clear vision of which ball had went in first.

"And with that, the winners of the tiebreaker challenge are..."

"The Villainous Lions!"

The Villainous Lions all cheered as it was revealed they had now won the challenge. The Heroic Tigers all looked disappointed and annoyed that they had lost two challenges in a row. Chris looked at the disappointed Hero Team and merely grinned. "Tigers, what can I say, you guys fought hard today, but ultimately, you are losers, I'll see your sorry at the elimination ceremony later tonight, but first, go shower, and that's an order for all of you, Lions included, seriously, you all look and smell like complete crap."


Later, Cody and Amy were talking away from everyone about who they were voting for. And it was all set. Cody wasn't exactly proud of it either.

"Alright, so we're still voting for her, right?"

"Yeah, we're still voting her off." Cody begrudgingly replied. But there was still a small step to take.

"Okay, but our two votes won't be enough to boot her, so here's the plan, you talk to Gwen, you two are pretty tight, so if you sway her mind enough, her vote is secured, I'll go to talk to someone else." Amy walked away leaving Cody there to his thoughts. His was truly sick of himself, but the Evil Twin had a malicious grin on her face.


Later, Gwen and Courtney sat on the Loser Cabin stairs with shower caps over their heads, disgusting who they were gonna vote off.

"I say we lose Mike," Courtney started going on one of her usual rants. "I still think he was sabotaging our team for his girlfriend's benefit, and besides, the moron crashed into the wall during the tiebreaker, Gwen, if he's just going to be a liability, then he has no purpose being here."

"I don't know, Court. Mike can be considered a lot of things, but a sabotaged is not one of them, and besides, if there's one person that I say we should vote off, it's Amy, I don't trust her, especially after her outburst with Leshawna."

As the two girls continued discussing, a familiar face ran up to them. "Guys, I need a favor, I swear, I'll so owe you one, the both of you."

"Well what is it Cody?" Courtney was suspicious, but allowed him to ask.

"Yeah sure, anything Cody." Gwen added.

Cody took a deep breath before replying. "Please help me vote off Sierra okay?! She's really annoying, ever since the challenge ended, she wouldn't stop bothering me, touching my butt, stealing my clothes, sniffing me and a bunch of other creepy things that I'm too freaked out to say aloud. So please help me vote her off, PLEASE IM BEGGING YOU!"

"First off, calm down, and second, wow, she really did a number on your sanity." Gwen chuckled lightly. "But okay, we'll vote with you."

Cody signed in relief, but felt guilty.

Confessional (Cody): "I feel really awful for lying to Gwen like that, but if you think about it, technically it's not a lie, and besides, it's for her own good." Cody at first, had a normal look on his face, but it soon fell flat to a look of sadness.

Static*


Mike was sitting on a tree stump by himself, with a look of sadness. Tyler and Owen did offer him the chance to hang out with them, but he rejected it in favor of moping by himself.

Confessional (Mike): "On the bright side, if I go home today, I won't hinder Zoey's game anymore, but then again, I won't be able to keep an eye on her and, 'you know who'."

Static*

While Mike was moping to himself, he didn't bother to notice Amy walking up to him. "Hey, Mike?"

The formerly Multiplied Mike looked up and saw the Twin standing before him with a snarky smile. "Can I talk to you for a minute?" Mike looked unsure but let her speak. "If you vote with me and Cody tonight, and join our alliance, I can probably convince the others to vote for someone else."

"And why should I believe you?"

Confessional (Amy): "They always make it so hard."

Static*

Amy grew impatient. "Because if you don't, I will personally guarantee you that I'll ruin the life of your girlfriend, Zoey." This caused Mike's eyes to widen with fear. "And trust, you have no idea what I am capable of, and let's face it, we both know you'll do anything to protect her, if she means that much to you, you'll agree to my terms."

Mike knew he was in a bad situation. Although he didn't really know Amy, he didn't want to gamble with the safety and well-being of Zoey, with lots of hesitation and even a bit of regret on his face, he said, "Yes, fine I'll vote with you and join your alliance."

"Good, and don't tell anyone else about this."

Suddenly, Chris was heard. "Attention losers, please stop what you are doing, it's elimination time, suckers." The Heroic Tigers hearing this, all flock towards the the Elimination Ceremony.


A short while later, all The Heroic Tigers sat down as Chris and Chef stood before them. Chris had the plate of marshmallows in his hand and Chef had the eight by ten picture of the competitor who would soon be going home.

Mike and Cody noticeably looked very guilty, and Amy, whom was sitting nearby had a smile on her, while Leshawna was glaring at the Evil Twin.

"Wow, two in a row has gotta stink now, does it?" The Tigers didn't even bother to acknowledge Chris and his taunting. "I'll take the silence as an obvious yes, anyways, since your all pretty beat up from the challenge, I'll wrap up tonight's ceremony quickly so you can all get some rest. "The following players are safe from elimination...

Gwen, Courtney, Leshawna, Owen, Cody, Tyler, Mike and Dawn...you all are safe."

Everyone of the mentioned competitors caught their marshmallows. Now, there were only two players left, and only one marshmallow on the plate.

"Amy and Sierra, one you is going home tonight, Sierra, let's face it, you make us all uncomfortable most of the time, and Amy, you practically stunk in the dodgeball challenge, and you are apart of the reason why you and your teammates are sitting here for the second time." Sierra looked a little fearful while Amy didn't look bothered in the slightest. "The last marshmallow of the night goes to..."

"Amy..." the Evil Twin caught her marshmallow and ate the treat with delight, while Sierra was surprised at the fact that she was the second person voted off in the entire competition.

"What, you guys voted me off, but why? Cody?" Sierra looked over to her crush, whom quickly turned away, being far too guilty to even look in her direction.

Before the heartbroken super-fan could say anything else, "Sierra, you've got an appointment at The Dock Of Shame, today's special is, The Cannon Of Shame." Chris have Chef the signal to grab Sierra. After the cook grabbed her, he didn't waste any time in tossing her into the Cannon from Pahkitew Island. Once she was in the cannon, she saw her former teammates standing before her, Chris decided to allow her ex-teammates say their parting words.

"Bye Sierra, we'll miss you, a lot," Gwen had more to say. "Be sure to keep your blog followers updated on us."

Courtney, being that she wasn't exactly friendly with the girl, "Nothing personal, just didn't have much candidates." This caused Gwen to elbow her in the arm for her rudeness.

"Later girlfriend, just wish it wasn't you in that dang cannon." Leshawna glared at Amy.

"I'll miss you." Owen was genuinely saddened. "I'll be sure to provide my fans on your blog with more of my 'Naturalist' side."

Cody and Mike were far to guilt ridden to say anything to her, which Sierra took notice to. Tyler merely waved out of respect.

Dawn looked very saddened as well. "Farewell my friend, you were very strange, but in a good way, something tells me, an act of evil is behind this."

Amy had an evil smile on her face, proud of her work tonight. To add insult to injury, she locked eyes with the eliminated Sierra and winked at her. The Fangirl now realized her suspicions were true all along.

"Youuuuu! It was yo-"

Chris pressed the button on the remote control to the Cannon Of Shame and fired Sierra away from Komotay Island, right in the middle of her sentence. Her screams were soon silenced once her silhouette disappeared into the night. "Aw shucks, guess Sierra didn't get to finish," The Host obviously wasn't sincere. "It's a shame really, it sounded important. Anyways, our resident Super-Fan slash Stalker is gone in our second elimination ceremony, shame really, part of me wanted her to last a bit longer to torture Cody, but even I don't get everything I want. Wanna see who takes a humiliating trip home next? You'll have to stay tuned in and find out on the next episode of...Total... Drama...Nostalgia!"

A/N: Hey there again, GoatedReads here, and if you didn't figure it out during your reading of the chapter already, yeah, Sierra's gone, didn't really have anything major for her planned in TDN, and I'll be honest she's not one of my favorite characters in the franchise, but my goal for her here was to at least try and make people feel bad and sympathetic for her here. I hope I succeeded:) and I did not intend to write a chapter that was 15K Words, that's usually only the amount of words I limit myself to when writing the chapters. I enjoyed quite a bit while writing this chapter, especially the bits with Dawn during the dodgeball challenge and everybody's reaction to her odd and mysterious ways. Now let me answer some reviews from the last chapter:

Cool Cat Fritz: I'm not so sure about this mate, as when I initially wrote TDN, I was just rushing and posting like there was no tomorrow ;(

leo45: Who knows? I'm not gonna guarantee that it'll happen (CxD), but let's just see how everything comes together and yeah I agree, Mike's concern is justified, as most Total Drama relationships (mainly Duncney, Gwen & Gwuncan) ended very poorly, wouldn't blame the guy myself.

Metal face: Very unlikely to happen dude, sorry :(

With the reviews being responded to, I have a few more things to say, first being I have personally made a Fandom Wiki for my universe of Total Drama Nostalgia! Yep, that's right, it's no where near completed, but it's in the process of getting there, here's the link to copy and paste it:

https/total-drama-nostalgia./wiki/Total_Drama_Nostalgia_Wiki.

Remember, only things relating to Total Drama Nostalgia are to be created, added, etc, so no other things unrelated to TDN or unconfirmed.

And with that being said, 1: Who can guess what the Tiebreaker challenge is inspired by? I took inspiration from another piece of media and twisted it to a Total Drama like way.

2: Probably an obvious question, but who is the main antagonist of Total Drama Nostalgia?

In the mean time, I'll see you all in Chapter 4. have fun, stay safe and be good people :)
