Chris' Recap: Last time on Total Drama Universe! Our campers were sent into the woods to camp out for the night and both teams decided to share their life stories with each other, some were pretty interesting I must say. The Flames fire was burning so much when friction between Father and Blossom for spot as leader. Which resulted in their arguing and losing the challenge, while Father was the most obvious choice, the team gave Blossom the boot due to her threat status. Now we're down to 17 contestants! Which one is the next to take a ride in the Cannon of Shame? Find out right here, right now on...Total...Drama...Universe!"
*Theme Song*
Shortly after Blossom's elimination, The Flames were right near the campfire area, and soon the alliance was glaring at Father.
"What are you staring at me like that?" Father asked Jack and Charming glared.
"Do you know how lucky you are right now?" Charming glared whispering. "If it wasn't for me convincing Lilac and Hector to vote for Blossom, you would be home right about now."
"Serves the brat right for trying to take my spot as leader." Father said. "No one but me is giving orders to the Flames, got it. And as my alliance members, I suggest you treat me with respect."
*CONFESSIONAL*
"Father is seriously starting to annoy me." Charming said. "I'm gonna need him gone soon, Jack is useless to me physically, but not intelligently so I'll keep him around."
*CONFESSIONAL*
"Yes...sir." Charming said rather rudely.
"Good." Father said.
Soon they saw the Foxes come by them.
"What do you guys want?" Jack glared. "Come by to rub in our faces that we lost?"
"Oh, quit being such a crybaby." Sasha rolled her eyes.
"I'M NOT A CRYBABY!" Jack said whining but soon the team looked at him before he cleared his throat.
"Anyway, we just came to see how you guys are doing." Yuya said. "We haven't really gotten a chance to talk with each other or hang."
"So what, your just being...nice?" Charming asked.
"We could always just leave." Diane said.
"No, no, no." Velma said. "Don't mind these three, would be nice to talk with the other team when we're not competing."
Soon the Foxes sat by the Flames as they were sitting by the fire.
"So...anything you guys wanna talk about?" Luz asked.
"No." The others said.
Yuya was looking though his card as Velma soon looked.
"Hey, what do you have there Yuya?" Velma asked.
"Oh, just looking at my cards." Yuya said. "My dad taught me how to Dueltain, and I wanna be just like him...putting smiles on the crowds' face.
"At least your dad loves you..." Father muttered.
"What's that supposed to mean, Father?" Yuya asked.
"Shut up, brat." Father said. "My father's a jerk, okay?"
"Why, did you and dad fight all the time or something?" Sash asked.
"My father just doesn't like me okay?" Father said looking away.
"Well, I can relate to family not liking me." Hector said. "In fact I'm scared of being forgotten by my family..."
"I feel you, Hector. Letting down family is a scary thought." Luz said. "I'm scared of letting my mom feel like I've abandoned her."
"So, looks like we're talking about our fears, huh?" Luz said.
"Guess this could be a good conversation." Dawn shrugged.
"Wait, hold on a second." Velma said. "Wouldn't talking about this make Chris and Chef probably rehash the Phobia Factor challenge from Season 1?"
But everybody ignored her.
*CONFESSIONAL*
"I tried to warn them." Velma said shrugging. "Don't say I didn't warn them."
*CONFESSIONAL*
"What's my worst fear...Z-Arc..." Yuya said feeling scared. "I still get nightmares from when I was a monster..."
"I'm scared of becoming my old self again." Sasha said. "I don't ever wanna be that again and lose my friends..."
"Jack Spicer, Evil Genius isn't afraid of anything." Jack said confidently but the other contestants gave him a look that he could tell wasn't buying it. "Okay fine...be-being flushed down a toilet..."
"Excuse me?" Meg asked. "I didn't quite get that."
"Dude...did you just say flushed down a toilet?" Loona asked.
Jack soon slowly nodded, which soon made the other contestants break down laughing.
"Sh-shut up!" Jack yelled. "What about you guys?"
"Okay." Velma said trying to stop laughing. "Well, I hate clowns, like a lot."
"I'm scared of Bloodbending." Katara said. "Trust me, it's horrible."
"I'm fearful of hurting others with my...'Inner Dragon'." Sash said.
"Having one of my cars completely wrecked." Vert said.
"I'm scared of Plusle and Minun." Dawn said. "It was a childhood incident which left me humiliated and made fun of by my classmates."
"I would hate my family outcasting me...forever." Meg said. "Which has kinda been the norm as long as I can remember."
"I can also relate to that, Meg." Webby said. "I'm scared of my family abandoning me forever."
"One thing I'll never stand is that hideous ogre, Shrek." Charming said. "Especially with him taking every spot which rightfully belongs to me, such as being married to Princess Fiona! That Ogre always has to have what I want!'
"Wow...spoiled much?" Diane asked raising an eyebrow on how Charming was action, before he cleared his throat.
"Well what about you, Foxy?" Charming mocked.
"Fine Prince Charming, I would hate the thought of Mr. Wolf committing crimes again." Diane said. "What about you, Lockwood?"
"My inventions causing giant disasters." Flint said.
"Haven't they already done that in the Virtual Reality challenge?" Meg asked.
"No Meg, it's MUCH worse than that." Flint said. "After what happened with my FLDSMDFR almost destroying the world, that kind of disaster is what I've always feared my inventions doing."
"I guess that leaves Ms. gloom and doom over here." Jack pointed at Loona.
"And why should I give out my fear? It's none of your business." Loona said still texting on her phone.
"C'mon Loona, everybody else shared their fears so why not you?" Luz asked. "Your afraid of something so spit it out."
Loona soon sighed and decided to do it anyway, since they'll just keep asking her anyway.
"M-my past as an orphan." Loona said. "Never want to experience that hellhole ever again."
"Wow...this was quite a topic for discussion." Diane said. "Glad to see everybody sharing something about themselves.
"I got a bad feeling about this." Velma said fearful, knowing full well what was about to happen tomorrow.
"Oh c'mon Velma, what's the worst thing that could happen?" Hector asked.
The next morning...
Soon in the mess hall, everybody was there eating their...'breakfast'.
"The things I do for a million bucks..." Sasha said groaning while eating the slop.
"Tell me about it." Diane said. "You'd think as Governor, I'd get more respect."
"Well you're the Governer of California, and this is Canada so..." Meg said.
"Fair enough, I guess." Diane said.
Soon, the intercom came on.
"Attention Campers, it's challenge time!" Chris said with excitement. "Meet me and Chef in the woods, pronto!"
Soon, all the contestants made it to the woods where Chris and Chef were smirking.
"Alright campers, congrats on making it this far!" Chris said. "But things are gonna get very interesting now."
"And by 'interesting' you mean painful, don't you?" Meg asked.
"You catch on very quick." Chris said. "Today's challenge is another classic, prepare for...Phobia Factor, get ready to face all your worst fears!"
"Oh no, tell me you weren't..." Dawn asked afraid.
"Yep." Chris said with a sadistic smile. "We were listening to that lovely conversation you two teams had last night, and it gave me wonderful ideas."
All the contestants groaned and Velma looked the most annoyed.
*CONFESSIONAL*
"That's what they get for not listening to me." Velma facepalmed in annoyance.
*CONFESSIONAL*
"Now, the rules of this challenge are simple." Chris said. "Like last time, each contestant will have to against someone or something that they fear the most, if you manage to overcome your fear, your team gets a point but if you fail...you don't get a point, and you'll have to wear the dreaded chicken hat for the rest of the day. I'll randomly call you up to face your fears. And the one with the lowest points will be sending one camper home tonight."
Most of the contestants gulped at knowing they'll have to face their worst fear.
"Since the Foxes won, I'm gonna make one of their members go first." Chris said as Chef brought a television and soon a roulette was going. "And the first Fox is..Meg, your up first." Chris added as it stopped on Meg's face.
"Yay...exciting." Meg said sarcastically.
"Chris, question." Velma raised her hand. "How do you plan on having people face their fears if people involved in those fears aren't present on the island?"
"Excellent question, Velma." Chris said. "We payed those that are part of said person's fear to be volunteers for us, as for other fears we're gonna put you in a virtual simulation to go against your fears, and we'll be watching you through the monitors."
"Oh, okay." Velma said.
"Chef, bring in the Griffin Family." Chris said.
Soon Chef came in with Meg's family came up as Meg had a look of dread.
"Holy crap Lois, I'm on Total Drama!" The fat man said. "This is almost as epic as when I ate a full grown pizza in a K-Mart with Tom Hanks!
Soon crickets were chripping as Peter was waiting for the cutaway.
"Hey, where's the cutaway gag?" PEter asked.
"Yeah, we're not doing that." Chris said. "You're only here to torture Meg for my amusement."
"Say no more, McLean." Peter said.
"Alright Meg, all you have to do is endure your family's insults and stand up to them, you have a full 30 minute." Chris said. "Ready?"
"Let's get this over with." Meg said.
"Ready, GO!" Chris said.
"Meg, I can't believe you actually think you can win this show?" Lois said. "I've seen you do some stupid thing, but this..."
"Yeah Meg, what the hell?" Chris Griffin asked. "Your fatass actually winning?"
*CONFESSIONAL*
"She's fat?" Sasha asked. "Has that guy ever looked in a mirror?"
*CONFESSIONAL*
"I bet you didn't even make a single friend here." Chris Griffin said. "Your a fat, smelly loser who should go kill herself."
(Author's note: I'm putting his last name so others don't get confused on who's Griffin and McLean)
"Wow, here family is relentless." Sasha whispered to Yuya.
"No kidding." Yuya said.
"I hope you lose." Chris Griffin said.
"And guess what, if you lose...we're not letting you back in the house." Peter said.
"Yeah, if you're coming back with no money." Lois said. "Don't expect us to welcome you back."
After more insults, Meg just stood there with a her spirit seeming completely crushed and that's when she had enough."
"You know what? Fine!" Meg said. "That's perfectly fine with me! Your all nothing but jerks who always are on my back for the stupidest crap! So when I win, I'm moving out so I can be away from all of you!"
All the Foxes were amazed at how Meg stood up for herself, but Diane looked pleased.
*CONFESSIONAL*
"Bravo Meg, bravo." Diane said clapping for how she stood up to herself.
*CONFESSIONAL*
"And done." Chris said. "Congrats Meg, you get the Foxes a point."
"Man, that felt good." Peter said feeling more pleased at his insults to Meg, not caring about what Meg said. "Thanks for inviting us McLean."
"No problem." Chris said. "It always pleases me to see my contestants suffer."
*CONFESSIONAL*
"I know Meg said her family was terrible...but wow, she wasn't exaggerating in the slightest." Katara said.
*CONFESSIONAL*
"After enduring all those family insults, Meg gets a point for her team.
(Cunning Foxes: 1)
"Sorry you had to endure that Meg." Yuya said.
"Don't worry about me...happens all the time." Meg said.
"Now time for the Raging Flames." Chris said as the roulette for that team and soon landed on someone's face. "Velma, you're up. Step up."
Velma soon sighed and gulped before going in.
"All you have to do is spend 5 minutes being near clowns." Chris said.
"Unless they decide to make you stay longer for our amusement." Father mocked.
"Not funny!" Velma said to him.
Soon Velma was soon in an pen as some clowns came to her.
"Hey, little girl." One laughed.
Velma was scared beyond belief but kept her cool.
Soon sprayed sparkling water in her face and laughed like a maniac.
Velma was screaming in terror as the other contestants cringed.
*CONFESSIONAL*
"Can't say I blame Velma." Vert said. "Clowns are pretty scary."
*CONFESSIONAL*
For five minutes they had to listen to Velma's cries of terror.
"Man...she really hates clowns." Luz said.
"Can you blame here, they're terrifying as hell." Loona said/
"And...time's up." Chris said.
And soon Velma was released and fell to the ground breathing heavily.
(Raging Flames: 1)
"Never...again..." Velma said.
"Looks on the bright side." Chris said. "At least you guys are tied for a point, next for the Foxes is...Katara."
Katara soon looked very pale as Chef brought an intern.
"Alright Katara, all you have to do is Bloodbend this intern." Chris said. "You only have to do it for 10 seconds."
Katara looked nervous and was about to go through with it, but she soon had flashbacks of when she first did it.
"Absolutely not!" Katara refused.
"C'mon, not even for a full second?" Chris said.
"You don't know what Bloodbending can do, I've seen it...and I never want to do it again."
She soon headed out as the intern sighed with relief, the foxes looked at her as Katara soon was benched.
"Couldn't do it huh, that's okay." Chris said. "But sadly Katara, that makes you a chicken...so here's your chicken hat."
"Totally worth it if it means not using Bloodbending on someone." Katara said.
She sat by the other Foxes as some of them gave her a look.
*CONFESSIONAL*
"Katara really seems to hate Bloodbending..." Yuya said. "...and given how she refused to Bloodbend on of Chris' interns, can't say I blame her."
*CONFESSIONAL*
"Alright, looks the foxes don't get a point. Meaning we're tied at one point each." Chris said. "Now for the Flames, up next is...Jack."
"Bring it on!" Jack said confident but soon his words would be eaten as now he had to face the giant toilet as soon Chris smirked.
"Beautiful ain't it, we managed to rebuild the Flush of Shame just for this challenge." Chris said. "Alright Jack, get in."
"Uh-uh, no way." Jack said.
"You could always chicken out, but it could cost your team a point...and then they'll hate you." Chris said.
Jack soon was shivering at the thought of being flushed down a toilet but soon he fainted.
"Guess that's a no." Chris said putting a chicken hat on Jack. "Now both teams have one point and one chicken, now the Foxes are up with...Yuya."
Yuya looked really nervous at the thought of facing Z-Arc again, after what happened when he and his other three counterparts fused together...
"Alright Yuya, all you have to do is beat Z-Arc in a duel." Chris said. "But we'll be waiting too long for you to finish...so we'll do someone else in the meantime."
"Great." Yuya said with lots of fear in his voice.
Yuya soon stepped in the simulation, where he was now facing against his worst fear...as a monstrous version of himself appeared before him.
"Yuya, time for you to join back with me once." Z-Arc smirked devilishly as he soon got his duel disk ready.
Yuya looked nervous.
"LET'S DUEL!" They yelled.
The two soon would begin their duel, as now Chris was gonna select someone from the Flames to go next.
"While they're dueling." Chris said. "Well do someone from the Raging Flames, and I'll pick...Luz, so step into the Flames' simulation."
"Why me?" Luz muttered in misery. "Alright Chris, what do I have to do?"
"All you have to do is prove to your mother that you still care for her and have to get her to believe you." Chris said. "Shouldn't be emotionally hard, now would it?"
"Yeah, it'll be easy." Luz said very sarcastically and soon stepped into the simulator and soon an image of her sad mother. "M-mom?"
"Why did you go on this show?" Camila asked saddened. "It's very dangerous and I don't want to see you hurt."
"I-I just wanted to see what it was like and make some new friends." Luz said saddened.
"You already worried me with the Boiling Isles and now this?" Camila asked. "Why do you continue to put yourself in danger?"
"I-I just wanted to..." Luz said.
"Where did I go wrong?" Camila asked about to cry. "Are you always trying to leave me?"
"No, it wasn't your fault." Luz said. "It was mine. I should've asked before auditioning for Total Drama, I only did it too see how I would do in the real world with what I learned on the Boiling Isles, it was never about me leaving you."
"Really?" Camila asked.
"Yeah." Luz smiled. "As soon as I get home, I'll split the money the with you. And we can use it to do whatever we want."
"Promise?" Camila asked.
Luz soon smiled and hugged her mother.
"Promise." Luz said as soon the simulation ended.
"Good work, Luz." Chris said. "That's another point to the Flames."
(Raging Flames: 2)
"Awesome work." Sash high fived Luz. "That must've been hard."
"Believe me, it was." Luz said.
*CONFESSIONAL*
"Don't worry Mom." Luz said. "If I win, we can split the money together."
*CONFESSIONAL*
"Let's see how Yuya is doing." Chris said and he soon went to see his simulation and saw that Yuya was actually doing pretty well against Z-Arc.
"This ends now Z-Arc!" Yuya said. "Odd-Eyes! Spiral Flame Strike!"
Soon Odd-Eyes unleashed it's blast on Z-Arc as the simulation ended, Yuya soon exited the simulation.
"And that's another point for the Foxes!" Chris said.
"Huh, how come that was such a fast duel?" Yuya asked. "It felt like I was in there for a few minutes or two."
"That's because your duel would've taken forever." Chris said. "And we decided to change the time dilation on your simulation so it seemed fast in the real world but not the virtual world."
"Makes sense...I guess." Yuya said.
(Cunning Foxes: 2)
"Alright next for the Foxes is Dawn." Chris said. "Chef, bring in the Pokemon."
Soon Chef brought in pet cages and inside was a Plusle and Miniun, and Dawn was shaking in fear at the sight of them.
"All you have to do is let these Pokemon make a mess of your hair." Chris said.
Dawn soon looked getting nervous.
"C'mon Dawn, you can do it!" Vert said.
Dawn soon was shaking but soon she backed up.
Soon Chef opened the cage as the two Pokemon soon got near her.
"All you have to do is hug em, let em shock ya and boom...Diamond Dandruff." Chris said. "So what's it gonna be Dawn, are you gonna get your hair to sparkle or take the Chicken Hat."
Dawn soon tried to pick them up and soon she saw their cheeks spark and soon had flashbacks of them messing up her air.
"I...I can't do it." She said scared. "Never again."
She soon coward and took the chicken hat.
"So looks like Dawn like Katara, doesn't get a point." Chris said.
She soon joined Katara, feeling ashamed of chickening out.
"For the Flames we have, Prince Charming."
"Bring it." Charming said.
"Alright, for this...you have to face Shrek as you said you're afraid of him getting everything." Chris said. "All you have to do is take him out."
"Wonderful." Charming said and soon he got into the simulator.
Soon he was in an environment where he saw his ogre enemy being handed the check by Chris.
"And the winner of Total Drama Universe is...Shrek!" Chris said as the others cheered. "He wins the one million dollars!"
The crowd cheered as Shrek smirked looking at Charming.
"Looks like I win again." Sherk said. "Better luck next time, Charming."
"No!" Charming said as he drew his sword. "The one taking home that million is me!"
"What'cha gonna do about it?" Shrek smirked mocking him.
"Listen here, you hideous monster." Prince Charming said. "The winner of that million and this show...IS ME!"
He soon took his sword and slashed down on Shrek making the simulation end with Charming having a smirk on his face.
"Sorry, Shrek." Charming said devilishly. "The only one winning this is me, not you...or anyone else."
Charming soon came walking out with pride, as if he took out his worst problems.
(Raging Flames: 3)
"And that's another point to the Flames!" Chris said. "Now up for the Foxes is...Webby."
"Wish me luck." Webby said nervously.
"Time to go into the simulator, Webby." Chris said. "Must be hard for someone especially like you to take rejection, huh?"
"Not funny, McLean." Diane said giving Chris a glare.
"Sheesh, just kidding." Chris said to the fox defensively. "Alright Webby, for this challenge...you need to convince the McDuck Family not to abandon you, you'll be in a scenatio where you let Scrooge McDuck's rival, Flintheart Glomgold get away with a rare treasure and might replace him as richest duck in the world."
Soon Webby was placed in the simulation, where the Duck Family looked angry at her before leaving to go on their next adventure who looked very angry at her.
"Gu-guys?" Webby asked.
"Webby, how could you let Glomgold get the treasure?" The duck in a green hoodie, Louie said.
"What? But...I..." Webby said.
"With that treasure, Glomgold might be the richest duck in the world now." The duck in red, Huey said. "You caused Scrooge to lose his title."
"I...I..." Webby said.
"I can't believe you." The duck in blue, Dewey said.
"Oh, Lass..." Scrooge said. "...I'm afraid we may have to drop you from adventuring."
"What?!" Webby asked. "No, Scrooge! You need me, You've been there for my Granny, and she's always been there for you."
"That is true." Scrooge said and began thinking.
"Scrooge, If I'm the reason this will happen, I'll do whatever I can to help you regain that title." Webby said. "You're my hero...and...my Dad."
"That's right, Webby Darling." Scrooge smiled. "Flinty's not gonna get the best of us, we'll take him out. Together."
The others nodded and soon hugged Webby, the others soon smiled at this.
*CONFESSIONAL*
"Aw, I love family moments." Luz said.
*CONFESSIONAL*
"And with that heartfelt moment, Webby gets another point for the Foxes!" Chris said.
(Cunning Foxes: 3)
"And for the Flames we have...Hector!" Chris said. "And his fear was to not have his family forget him."
Hector soon gulped in fear of going next, and soon stepped into the simulator.
"Alright Hector, your challenge is to prevent your family from forgetting you." Chris said. "If you fail, your team doesn't get a point."
"Good luck, Hector." Luz said confidently. "If I can do it, so can you!"
"Thank, amiga." Hector said and went in.
And soon he was found in the land of the dead as soon his great, great, grandson Miguel and the rest of his family forget him and soon he found himself fading from their memory.
"No Miguel." Hector said. "Remember what we've been through together..."
In the simulation, everyone saw how Hector was feeling seeing his family forget him.
"Wow, that's brutal." Yuya said. "Having your family to forget you must be hard."
"Yeah, even in death." Katara said feeling sorry for Hector.
Hector soon got his guitar and began to sing the song, Remember Me. The contestants soon recognized it as the song that he used to win the Flames the Talent Show challenge.
"Hey. Isn't the challenge Hector used in the Talent Show challenge?" Velma asked.
"Seems so." Luz said. "Let's see if it works."
Miguel was about to forget Hector before he saw his guitar, and soon he began to remember.
"This is..." He said and soon began to play the guitar along with Hector as they both played the same song in perfect synchrony and after some time of playing the music, Miguel began to remember Hector.
"Thank you, Miguel." Hector said.
"And after that heartfelt moment, the Flames get another point!" Chris said. "So it's four points for the Flames and three of the Foxes."
(Raging Flames: 4)
"Speaking of the Foxes, next up to face their fear is Flint." Chris said. "Step up to the simulator."
"Alright, here it goes." Flint said. "So, what's my challenge?"
"You said your worst fear is having one of your wacky inventions cause chaos on the world." Chris said. "So we made your challenge into a little food themed obstacle course, based on that food storm that almost destroyed the world."
"Great..." Flint said.
"All you have to do is make it to the end of the obstacle course and turn off your FLDS...Fum...whatever it's called, before you run out of time. You'll be given two minutes, anymore questions?" Chris asked, which of course made Flint raise his hand. "No questions, good. Now get in there."
Chef soon threw Flint into the simulator as it began to boot up, and found himself on Swallow Falls during the infamous Spaghetti Storm.
"Mama Mia..." Flint said.
"Flint...your challenge starts...NOW!" Chris said as Flint was running through the streets as the timer counted town.
And soon giant meatballs and garlic bread was tossed at him, and soon he began to ran on cars being pulled into the storm, and everyone was surprised at how well he was dodging the obstacles.
*CONFESSIONAL*
"Okay wow, just...wow." Sasha said impressed with Flint.
*CONFESSIONAL*
"Either Flint is extremely lucky or he's not as much of a weakling as I thought he was." Charming said.
*CONFESSIONAL*
Flint made it inside the tornado where we leaped across multiple obstacles in the storm trying to get to the other side.
"Oooh, some impressive moves from the backyard inventor!" Chris said. "Flint is trying to get to the other side of the Spaghetti Twister! Will he make it in time?!"
He soon made it to the other side and soon began falling, but he used his lab coat as a parachute but soon lost grip of it and began falling and soon grabbed an umbrella but a meatball knocked it out of his hands and soon climbed down a latter and soon made it to the ground.
The other contestants were amazed at how good Flint's luck was in this challenge.
*CONFESSIONAL*
"Yep, definitely lucky." Charming said.
*CONFESSIONAL*
"One minute left!" Chris said looking at his watch.
Flint soon raced into his lab and got to his computer and began typing as fast as he could to create a kill code, as most of the Foxes cheered for Flint.
"C'mon Flint, you can do it!" Yuya cheered.
"Yeah, put that brain to work." Dawn said.
Flint was typing as fast as he could.
"20 seconds left!" Chris said as Flint was finishing up.
The Foxes cheered on Flint to finish up.
"Annnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnd...DONE!" Flint said. "All that's left is to push the button!"
"10, 9, 8..." Chris counted down.
Flint soon saw the button and ran to it.
"...6, 5, 4, 3, 2..."
Flint soon jumped and tried to press it.
"...1!"
Flint soon hit the button at the last second and the food swarm soon came to a stop as the simulation ended.
"And, Flint wins another point for the Foxes!" Chris said.
Flint came out of the simulation looking exhausted as the Foxes cheered for him.
(Cunning Foxes: 4)
"Alright for the Flames, Loona is up!" Chris said.
'Fan-frickin'-tastic." Loona said.
*CONFESSIONAL*
"I am really not looking forward to being back in that orphanage." Loona said. "Even if it is a fake simulation."
*CONFESSIONAL*
"Alright Loona, you just have to spend 2 minutes in the simulator." Chris said. "All alone, with no friends, and no one will adopt you...EVER!"
"Sheesh, didn't have to say it like that." Loona said rubbing her arm and looking away.
"What can I say, I love making my contestants miserable." Chris said. "Now, get in the simulator.
Loona soon stepped into the simulator and was soon in her old orphanage, where she was alone as the other kids whispered about her.
"What is she doing all alone there?" One kid whispered.
"Isn't she like eighteen, and still no friends?" Another kid whispered to the first one. "That's just sad."
"Yeah, you'd think someone would've adopted her by now but..." The first kid whispered back to her.
Loona only ended up growling hearing that, and the others watching this felt bad for her while Father found this amusing.
*CONFESSIONAL*
"Wow...I really feel bad for Loona." Yuya said.
*CONFESSIONAL*
"I picked her because she looked intimidating, but she could've even gotten adopted when she was a snot-nosed brat?" Father asked and soon sighed. "That's just pathetically sad."
*CONFESSIONAL*
"Imagine being an orphan for all of your childhood until your first year of adulthood." Luz said. "Poor Loona, she must've been very lonely...probably explains why she isn't exactly a social butterfly."
*CONFESSIONAL*
Back with Loona, she managed to complete her two minutes in the simulation.
"And with that, the Flames get their fifth point."
(Raging Flames: 5)
Soon Loona sat on the bleachers looking gloomy as she growled and was on her phone, and Luz felt sorry for her knowing more about her and why she seemed bad with making friends.
"Alright now it's the Foxes turn, Vert...follow me." Chris said.
Soon Chris lead the street racer to what seemed to be some kind of racing course.
"Since you said you're afraid of having your car destroyed, your task is to drive this go-kart down this track and make it all the way to the end...without destroying the kart." Chris said.
"I would say it sounds easy but something tells me you made the course booby trapped didn't you?" Vert asked giving Chris an unamused look.
"Oh, you know me too well." Chris said smiling. "Good luck and try not to die...are things I'd say if I cared."
Vert soon got in the go-kart and was ready to drive.
"On your marks...get set..." Chris said and soon got his traditional airhorn out and blured it. "GO!"
Vert soon stepped on the gas and began to drive through the course, with the Cunning Foxes cheering him up.
*CONFESSIONAL*
"I should win this no problem." Vert said. "I learned my lessons from getting too cocky from the past."
*CONFESSIONAL*
"Alright, time to throw in a few obstacles for fun." Chris said as he pressed a button.
And soon the track soon began to have trees come up from the ground, Vert soon yelped and soon swerved past the trees fast.
"Nice try, McLean." Vert said smirking. "It's gonna take a lot more than that!"
Chris looked annoyed before hitting the remote and soon track became full of water.
"Watch the oversteer." Vert said before slowing down across the water and soon made it to the other side.
"Wow, he's good." Yuya said impressed with Vert's driving skills.
"Yeah, no kidding." Webby agreed.
"Alright, final challenge." Chris said as soon three rings of fire appeared as Vert was supposed to make it through all of them.
Vert soon put his kart in gear as he soon speed through the rings but soon saw the flames were enveloping the ring.
"OH COME ON!" Vert said and soon he drove through the rings.
But soon Vert's wheel soon began to melt and that made Vert spin out and soon destroyed the kart.
"Dang it!" Vert said slamming his fist on the ground and soon he walked up and got his Chicken Hat.
"And looks like Vert couldn't complete his challenge, costing him from getting the Foxes another point." Chris said.
"Sorry guys..." Vert said feeling ashamed.
"Don't worry about it. Those were awesome moves, Wheeler." Sasha smirked.
"Really? Thanks." Vert said. "Though I did screw up at the end."
"Don't worry." Yuya said. "At least you survived."
"True." Vert said.
*CONFESSIONAL*
"Chris...I hate you so much." Vert said annoyed.
*CONFESSIONAL*
"So that makes both teams at five with the Flames and four for the Foxes." Chris said. "So Sash, you're up. All you have to do is unleash your 'Inner Dragon' as you call it and you get your team a point.'
Sash soon looked nervous before shaking her head.
"I-I can't..." Sash said. "Sorry..."
"Coward." Charming called her as Chris soon put a hat on the dragon's head.
"So that leaves Sash and Diane, and to make things fun...you're both gonna go at the same time." Chris said to her. "Diane, we've brought along a familiar guest to help you with your challenge, come on out Mr. Wolf!"
Soon a male wolf in a well-dressed outfit came out looking very cocky.
"Thanks for invite, McLean." He smirked. "So, what do you need me to do?"
"It's easy." Chris said. "I need to be tempted into stealing one of the Gilded Chris' from Total Drama Action, but Diane will try to convince you not to steal it."
Mr. Wolf smirked at Diane as she soon smirked at him back.
"If those two kiss, I'm gonna throw up." Jack said grossed out.
"Agreed." Father nodded which got the fox and wolf to glare at them.
"Anyway, if there aren't any more interruptions." Chris said annoyed. "Sasha, you're challenge is in the simulator, all you have to do is face your inner demons, in other words...your past self."
"Bring it on." Sasha said determinedly.
She soon stepped into the simulator to get ready as Diane and Wolf were about to begin their challenges.
"Alright, Diane goes first." Chris said and soon blew his airhorn.
Mr. Wolf was looking at the Chris gold statue and formed a devious grin on his face.
"C'mon Mr. Wolf." Diane said. "Remember what being bad has done to you and your friends. Do you really wanna go down that route again, all that hate you get from others and yourself."
Mr. Wolf soon stopped and began to think it over between having the gold statue or a life where everyone liked him.
"You know it's wrong." Diane said.
"You-your right." Mr. Wolf said.
They soon hugged which made the other contestants awe.
"That's a sixth point for the Foxes." Chris said.
(Cunning Foxes: 5)
Meanwhile in the simulation, we see Sasha be in the woods meeting with her former self.
And soon...Sasha was face to face with her former self.
"You." Sasha said.
"Of course, who else would it be Einstien?" Old Sasha asked rudely. "If Anne had just done what I said when we were fighting on Toad Tower, you would've gotten home sooner."
"You manipulated Anne into doing what you wanted, and you know it!" Sasha said back. "All you did was nothing but control Anne and Marcy for your own personal gain, you weren't a true friend to them and never were."
"Big talk coming from me." Old Sasha said. "You did those things too, you're no different. I got everything I wanted from those two, so what if I used a little...force to have them get what I wanted."
"Do you not see how horrible that is?!" Sasha yelled at her old self. "Anne left you as a friend because of you bullying her."
Old Sasha soon stopped at that and soon growled.
"Sh-shut..." Old Sasha said.
"You know I'm right...don't you?" Sasha asked.
"I said shut up!" Old Sasha said.
"I'm a better friend then you could ever hope to be." Sasha said. "Since now I know what being a real friend is all about."
"How...how dare you!" Old Sasha yelled.
"And I think it's time I finally leave you in the past, once and for all!" Sasha said and soon she grabbed her sword and slashed her old self down as the simulation ended. "So long and good riddance."
*CONFESSIONAL*
"Anne, Marcy...if you're watching this at home." Sasha said. "That was for you."
*CONFESSIONAL*
"After that battle with her inner demon, Sasha has awarded with her team." Chris said.
(Cunning Foxes: 6)
"So that just leaves...Father." Chris said.
"Finally." Father said but that confidence soon went away as he remembered. "Oh...crud..."
"Yep." Chris said. "Hope you like family reunions, because I think your Grandfather is just...DYING to met you."
Father soon looked nervous.
"Father, you better win this or we're gonna lose!" Jack said.
"This coming from the guy who fears a toilet." Loona said texting on her phone.
"Oh shut up!" Jack said. "At least I wasn't stuck in an orphanage for 18 years of my life."
"You wanna go!" Loona growled at him as Jack screamed like a little girl, but she just rolled her eyes and continued texting.
"Actually, if you do the math, I don't think the Flames can win." Flint said. "The score's 6 to 5."
"Not necessarily true, Flint." Chris said. "Remember, you have more members than the Flames so that gives them a disadvantage, how about this Father? If you complete your fear based challenge and stand up to your Father, I'll give you two points to make up for a number disadvantage."
Father soon thought on that and smirked.
"Fine." Father said and soon stepped into the simulator one last time.
"This is gonna be ugly." Diane said as some of the contestants nodded with her.
Soon Father was the last one to face his fears, as he was ready to face...Grandfather.
"Alright McLean, do your worst." Father said.
"Ask and you shall receive." Chris pressed the start button.
And soon he was outside his mansion, at a point in time where he had confronted his father when he tried to take over the world with his army of Senior Citi-Zombies.
"Well, well, well." A giant elderly silhouette man smirked coming down towards him. "I would say it's nice to see my son...but I wouldn't be talking about you, now would I?"
"B-But Pappy, I was the one who..." Father said before Grandfather interrupted him.
"BAGH! We all know you just resurrected my evil because you can't do anything right! You never were evil enough to take out those miserable Kids Next Door!" Grandfather said. "Oh...how I wish Monty was the one who took on the evil role in this family, but I'm left with you..."
"I'm part of this family too." Father said. "And I'm evil, I'm full of evil..."
"Do you ever...SHUT UP?!" Grandfather yelled and soon fired fire from his eyes.
"Uh-oh..." Father said before getting hit back by them into the dirt, and soon...that got him on his last nerves.
"You...big...JERK!" Father yelled as she soon began to get up and yelled the last part as he had flames. "THAT'S IT!"
"Uh oh..." Chris said.
"Something tells me he's gonna do worse damage to the simulator than Josuke did to the VR room." Sasha whispered to Katara who silently nodded.
"I'VE DONE EVERYTHING YOU HOPED YOU WANTED, I TRIED MY HARDEST TO BE LIKE YOU AND I GET NO APPRECIATION FROM YOU!" Father said as his flames grew more. "WELL THAT ENDS NOW!"
Father soon had his flames burned and soon fired them at the simulation Grandfather which made him scream as soon in in the real world the simulation room was on fire, and that made the other contestants run away."
"Take cover!" Velma said.
Katara soon put out the fire in the simulation room as they put out the fire as Father emerged coughing out the water.
"You finished?" Katara asked Father. "You done throwing your little temper tantrum?"
Father still glared at her but nodded
"*CONFESSIONAL*
"Are you kidding me, what is with these freaks destroying my stuff?!" Chris yelled annoyed. "First Josuke and now Father...The damages they're causing is almost tempting me to take it out of the winner's million dollars."
*CONFESSIONAL*
"After all that...Father wins the challenge for the Raging Flames, so they win!" Chris said.
The Flames soon cheered for their win as Father smirked nodding.
"So Foxes, I'll see you back at elimination." Chris said and soon looked at Dawn, Vert and Katara in their chicken hates. "And it looks like you have 3 options to choose from."
The Foxes looked at the ones in chicken hats and soon they looked down ashamed.
"*CONFESSIONAL*
"Looks like it's down to the Pokemon Trainer, Waterbender and Street Racer." Sasha said. "Well I know who I'm voting for."
*CONFESSIONAL*
Later that night, the Cunning Foxes were at the Campfire area again where Chris came with a plate of the traditional Marshmallows."
"So, we're back at the glorious campfire ceremony." Chris said. "And let's get it underway...the following Foxes are safe for another day..."
"Flint."
"Yuya."
"Meg."
"Diane."
"Webby."
"...And Sasha, you're all safe." Chris said and soon looked at Vert, Dawn and Katara. "You three failed to complete your challenges today, but only two of you will get to say, the next one safe is..."
"...Vert."
Vert sighed with relief as he caught his Marshmallow, as Dawn and Katara both looked nervously.
"Dawn, you're on the chopping block due to your fear of getting your hair messy...and Katara, you're here because she was too afraid to hurt someone with her Bloodbending." Chris said. "Only one girl will stay...and the last marshmallow goes to..."

"Katara."
Dawn looked shocked for a second before looking down in shame and soon walked to the Cannon.
*CONFESSIONAL*
"Between Katara and Dawn's fears, Katara's fear of not hurting anyone with her Bloodbending made the more sense to me, but not letting something ruin your hair?" Sasha asked. "I think it was kinda obvious who I'd vote for. Sorry, Dawn."
*CONFESSIONAL*
"No hard feelings, Dawn." Flint said.
*CONFESSIONAL*
Soon, Dawn was loaded into the cannon waving goodbye to the others.
"Bye guys." Dawn said. "And good luck."
Chris soon pressed the button as Dawn was soon launched off the island as her scream was heard.
"After all that chaos of people facing their fears, it looks like the Pokemon Trainer is outta here." Chris said. "We're down to 16 players! What will they have to face in our next challenge? Find out next time! on Total...Drama...Universe!"

Wow...this was by far the trickiest chapter I have ever written for Universe thus far, who knew the Phobia Factor challenge would be so tricky? Hopefully, I did a good job having the contestants confront their fears, but If I did I'll probably update the chapter with some different text.
Well, I have some updates to share with you, so in case you don't know. is going through a Server Migration soon so I don't know if it'll affect my story or how the site works, but I'll try to get things done.
Also, I want to confirm that there will be a Season 2 after Universe, and it will feature 30 contestants! 15 from this season as well as 15 new contestants! And the new season will be featured on a Cruise Ship or back at the Abandoned Film Lot where the challenges will be Video Game Themed, I'll let you decide on that now.
And for the new cast for next season, I'll accept new ideas but I'll look back at previous suggestions and select those I wanted to have in Universe, but didn't make the cut.
But I assure you all, the next chapter will get done soon. Who knew Phobia Factor would be such a toughie to write? Anyway...till then, see ya next time.
Challenge ideas are always welcome!
