Total Drama X: Hotel Rockies
Episode 1
Part D: The Final Players.
This chapter's very important to the canon.
Actually, it's not, but DO NOT SKIP IT.
There's a new guy and a returning lady in here for a total of 77 characters and also, this sequel can be read on its own, though some stuff will...Ultimate Island is too long for its own good, you guys, but it will more context for this chapter.
I'm gonna say that the chapters will not be frequent until after Ultimate Islands finishes, mostly because of workload and the rest? Mostly because I want that to be done before this really gets going.
1602jaw: Believe it or not, Ultimate Islands takes place only a few months before the reboot (or rather, the 2022 season of Total Drama thank you) and Mountain Drama takes place six months after said season, so...imagine all of the Total Drama contestants being quite a bit older. I may have forgotten to elaborate this, so DJ's all grizzled chef and some other people are definitely older.
On one fateful day, there was definitely a guy and a girl that was stuck outside of the hotel that somehow changed its name, as they were for one thing and one thing only and it was to get their late reveals for this season.
"I thought this was called Mountain Drama?" A very much Chinese guy said. "These guys are indecisive."
"Honestly, Mountain Drama does sound ridiculously lame." What obviously was Daffy Duck remarked. "Hotel Rockies sounds like a show with some gravitas and epic energy to it! Which I need to get in."
"...Just because I let you get here doesn't mean I care to let you in."
"You're Chinese, what does it matter?"
The Chinese guy, who was a 21 year old with black hair and brown eyes?
Cheng Xiaoshi, photographer, time-traveller and ready to ball at most times and he was wearing a steel blue and off-white sports jacket with a golden hawk, a white t-shirt, black trousers and grey sneakers.
"I don't even know how you got here, but I'm glad that you even made it here. Just respect my race...please." Xiaoshi remarked. "You didn't even pack anything."
"All I need to pack is more personality." Daffy said. "And Bugs will have to let me in, of which I don't know how Speedy got in! I need some more money!"
Xiaoshi was done with this duck.
While one had only just arrived and was not familiar with this game, the other one was there for a hot minute and standing there with sheer confidence...and looked just as good.
Clover was still in her spy suit, since she had a billion clothes in the suitcase, a mission that had finished on the day of the rest of the first episode and completely baffled at how a certain duck was there.
"IS THAT, LIKE, THE GUY FROM THE CARTOON!" Clover shouted. "LIKE, THE DUCK!"
"Yes, it is! Do you think every one as is as weird as he is." Xiaoshi asked. "Like are they hiding their identities through the posters because it was just...all cartoons."
"No. You're cute."
"...Can we just wait?"
"Actually, we are."
Cheng Xiaoshi and Clover Ewing were obviously the final two contestants to show up in this she-bang, considering how Topher just opened the door after the cafeteria showdown.
Topher was just tired of the late arrivals, as he the two of them.
"I swear, if the bus drivers don't count everyone...you know what, forget it. Welcome to the competition, Cheng Xiaoshi, it's great to meet you finally!" Topher told him.
"I'm glad that I made it, Lu Guang said that I would get lost in Canada and that I wouldn't win! I'm going to prove both of these wrong!" Xiaoshi stated.
"Uh, good luck, you're going up against strong competition and honestly, your powers...probably would instantly eliminate you!"
"I don't know where you heard that. If you're talking about an old witch, then you might have to talk to her and uh, she's still in China and time-travelling!" Xiaoshi blurted out, hopefully not offending a friend. "...Seriously, though, you got any pictures."
"No! Besides...I already know!" Topher smirked, as he made that snarky insult. "I know about Clover's time in Ultimate Islands! Clover, welcome back for the second shot!"
Cheng Xiaoshi just stepped out of the way or the girly blonde agent, who lierally sprinted right into the view and almost managed to punch him before he went out of virew.
"I see you're going retro with your arrival...and..."
"Uh, obviously! I wasn't doing anything crazy!" Clover was panicking, moving her hands all around. "Finally, they have someone cute as the host!"
"...Woo...alright...you have your second chance!"
"...Yes?" Clover said. "But, like, I doubt it's going to be very easy! I mean these guys are stupid powerful like they've got powers, move fast, do very not normal things! Why are there even supervillains in this!"
"Because there is!" Topher curtly answered. "How's Rock?"
"...He's really cute and really cool, but...uh...there's other boys in here." Clover said. "...And I like him and, like, I should stop talking."
Xiaoshi was really miffed, as Topher had a knowing smile, figuring that her sentences would actually
"Now, you two are going to be shown the ropes of the stuff because I need to get my beauty sleep and more importantly, find a good way of surprising these other players! Seriously, you two, you should have gotten here earlier!"
Clover was just looking around the place, as Xiaoshi just pulled out his camera for his own sake, especially with what he was about to witness.
...
They were shown the now empty and slightly dirty cafeteria.
...
They wee shown the bathrooms and the scuffed confessionals.
...
They were shown the not so great bedrooms that they'd temporarily be staying in for about a day or so.
...
And then, they were set down when there was no-one else there.
"You guys just stay in there for the moment, you two are gonna surprise the rest of 'em and maybe each other!" Topher told the two of them, as Clover was half-listening and Xiaoshan was listening well. "That's it."
*Clover's confessional*
She talked like she didn't care about much.
"Sorry, Rock! I'm glad you told that we could be just friends because you know, there's more cute people here and...this is a great place to look from cute boy aliens...or cute boys from other worlds! And getting some money, like, duh!"
*Xiaoshan's confessional*
The black-haired photographer took a picture of the confessional.
"I don't know what is telling me that this was a bad idea, but I'm not going to listen to that type of feeling and plus, these kind of shows are not impossible for me to win. Just really hard!" He declared. "...Apparently, I'm the fourth or fifth Chinese person to be in this season, which is unbelievable."
*Confessional cut*
Topher had one easy job to do.
"Finally, that's everybody in this stupid, stupid season of Total Drama X! And yeah, there will not be any more fellas, any more contestants because 77 contestants is a lot and most of 'em you haven't ever seen before...in Total Drama X...HOTEL ROCKIES!"
There was definitely the crazy echo...and the real end of this episode.
To be continued in Episode 2 complete with the additions of a Chinese photographer and a Malibu secret agent that joined the spatial researcher/supervillain, a very sarcastic rabbit and a former coward...
...in being players that got introduced after the rest of the introductions and well, JFK may be mostly the same dude, but he's in a very different cast, so G-man, you won't be disappointed.
