Total Drama Revenge of the Film Lot Chapter 7: Borbin Time, a total drama series fanfic

"Last time, on Total Drama Revenge of the Film Lot..." Chris began the recap, standing in what looked like some super high tech science lab. Chef was behind him at the moment, wearing a nurse's outfit and moving some vials around. "Our teams pretended to go back to the past! Or did they? The Critics further cemented why they're the best team, not really having much for me to make fun of. Jack was a complete weirdo again? Yeah, I'll go with that. The Munchers have tension thicker than Owen, and Delanie is absolutely whipping the Award Winners! Both metaphorically and physically, looking at you Trina! Thanks to Jack and Flynn, the Critics took 1st, and the Munchers brute forced 2nd, while the Award Winners failed to even return their immunity idol to its rightful place! Despite Diamond's attempts to remove Delanie from power by rallying up votes, it wasn't enough to take the diva down, and instead she was given the boot! Who will take the boot today? Will this elimination go down as the most Morbtacular one yet? Find out right here, because this is Total, Drama, Reeeeeeeeeevenge of the Film Lot!"

Intro Sequence:

The rock tune of I Wanna Be Famous started up, with high-grade film cameras popping out of different places. First out of the chimney of a trailer, then out the window of a soundstage, a toxic waste barrel after that, and finally a sewer manhole before a movie clapper came in and closed, letting the full shot begin.

Dear Mom and Dad, I'm doing fine, you guys are on my mind

The camera zoomed onto the film lot, passing by Chris in a dingy golf cart being pushed by Irene, Oliver, Elroy and Ted, while Virgil was stuck to the cart itself. Going past several soundstages, the camera weaved between a few movie backdrops, before going up the large hill that led to the soap opera sets on top. The shot then dove down into a pool of water below where King was swimming inside. He saw Fang swim up behind him, so he turned around and punched him right in the face, sending the mutant shark flying up.

You asked me what I wanted to be, and I think the answer is plain to see

Flynn was above the water, now in a soundstage, commandeering a pirate ship floating on it while Delanie copied his behavior. Fang landed on their ship though, forcing both of them to dive off of it. Trixie had watched the two jump down, smirking at their misfortune.

I wanna beeeeeee famous!

The shot now panned out of this soundstage, passing up Kahlin running out of one of the dressing booths, with Sasquatchanakwa right behind him. Jack was looking over some outfits on a rack, although Lilac jumped out from behind some of the clothes, showing her teeth and scaring him.

I wanna live close to the sun

Beck was relaxing on a lounge chair on a beach set, his hands behind his head. He winked at the camera, while Flaky and Bonnie were ogling at him from behind a bush.

So pack your bags cuz I've already won

Panning to the right and into the makeup trailer confessional, Kylie was doing her makeup, applying lipstick at the moment. Trina walked inside, carrying a basket of different foundation. Kylie looked them over, then shooed Trina away.

Everything to prove, nothing in my way, I'll get there one day

Klaas and Vergil were in a boxing ring together, both of them glaring at each other. Vergil threw a punch, as did Klaas, with their fists colliding as they did so. Both of them fell back because of this, although Esteban was quick to run in and help them up.

Cuz I wanna beeeeeee famous!

Toby and Luis were in the kitchen with Chef, with Athena preparing some kind of soup. She seemed to be having trouble with it though, so Toby walked over to help her out. Maxine was watching this from a monitor in Chris's office, then pressed a button to try and blow up the kitchen.

Na na na nana, nananana, nananana

This blew up a different set though, where Thomas, Nanashi, and Jim were inside. A bear had taken the brunt of the explosion though, and it let out a roar at the three of them. Jim pointed at the other two and ran off with a guilty look, although Thomas ran away as well, leaving Nanashi to get chased by the bear.

I wanna be, I wanna be, I wanna be famous!

Diamond and Melissa were sitting at the outdoor theater on the benches when Jim and Thomas ran by. They didn't pay much mind to it though, but Freddy popped up from behind them both with a puppet mask on, startling them both. Diamond laughed, while Melissa rolled her eyes.

I wanna be, I wanna be, I wanna be famous!

A flash from the outdoor projector transitioned to the Aftermath studio, where Donna was sitting in between Geoff and Bridgette. Mittens the monkey hopped up from behind the couch, scowling at the aftermath hosts. This confused both, with the shot then zooming out to show the rest of the contestants sitting in the peanut gallery benches, whistling along with the last notes of the intro while the season logo was shown on a TV above.

After the intro, the episode began with a shot of the two trailers early in the morning, before zooming in on the girls' trailer first. All of the girls were sleeping soundly in their trailer. The clock struck 8 though, and Delanie sprung out of bed. "GOOD morning campers! Ready for another great day? Because I sure am!" Delanie shouted, her voice sounding like a boom to the sleeping girl.

Kylie was startled by this, sitting straight up and hitting her head on the bunk above. Bonnie felt the bump on her bunk and then peered over, smiling eerily at Kylie. "You called~?" Bonnie asked Kylie.

Kylie rolled her eyes and got off her bunk, rubbing her head for a moment. "Ugh... great. Morning." Kylie said, letting out a yawn afterward.

Melissa didn't have a problem with the early wake up call though, stretching and hopping off her bunk right after. "Morning Delanie, you're still pumped after your last loss?" Melissa greeted Delanie much more normally than Kylie.

"It's counselor Carter ma'am." Trina corrected Melissa tiredly, grabbing her notepad and getting off her bunk.

Delanie gave a thumbs up to Trina, then looked at Melissa. "A loss won't bring down our spirits, that's not how my team rolls! That's not how any team should operate in fact. And we'll prove it in today's challenge." Delanie replied to Melissa, putting a fist on her heart.

Melissa raised an eyebrow, having a small smirk. "Oh really? Didn't expect you to be a good sport about it honestly. Good on you then. Maybe we'll finally take a chip off the Critics today." Melissa commented hopefully, then jogged out of the trailer.

"We'll see about that, but good luck to your team too!" Delanie told Melissa, soon leaving the trailer as well with Trina right behind her.

Once Delanie left, Trixie got out of her bunk and kicked the wall in frustration. "Why the HECK is Delanie still here!?" Trixie asked angrily, then looked to the other girls.

Kylie looked just as bothered as Trixie, crossing her arms. "I know right? I thought they'd vote her off last night. What happened Diamond?" Kylie looked to Diamond's bunk, figuring she'd know.

Diamond wasn't there though. Nanashi got off her bunk, having a simple smile. "Looks like they voted her off instead last night! Woops! You win some you lose some! Not much we can do about it." Nanashi stated merrily, then walked past the other girls to head to the door.

Lilac groaned upon realizing Diamond had been voted off, fixing up her hair after getting off her bunk. "Hopefully we can beat them again, it's no fun when she's around~" Lilac spoke with a floaty voice, brushing her hair in front of the mirror gracefully while talking.

Trixie tapped a finger on her chin, and her eyes then lit up in genius. "Better idea, why don't we force them to lose? Nanashi, Bonnie, are you two down to gang up on the Award Winners?" Trixie asked the two, looking at Nanashi who had just opened the door.

Nanashi looked back at Trixie and shrugged. "Rigging the odds? Doesn't sound too fun. I'll see what Klaas thinks of it." Nanashi gave Trixie a maybe as she left.

Bonnie didn't have a problem though, snickering at the idea. "Fine with me. Delanie is probably overcompensating for something, and Trina is a 5/10. Them losing is the best case anyway." Bonnie agreed to the idea.

Kylie walked up to Trixie and patted her on the back. "Nice thinking. Probably better for both teams if we just pick off one team. I'll try to get Jack to agree to it. Bonnie, you think you can talk Melissa into it?" Kylie asked Bonnie, still narrowing her eyes at the pervert.

Bonnie shook her head. "Nope. She's super sportsmanlike. I'll just let everyone besides her know. One more thing though." Bonnie answered, raising one finger up.

"What is it?" Kylie asked her sharply.

"Can I feel your chest over? Just as compensation for helping with this-" Bonnie began, but ended up receiving a smack to the back of her head from Kylie.

"Not happening. Ever." Kylie told Bonnie firmly, then marched out of the trailer.

-Confessional: Toxic Film Critics: Trixie-

Trixie was playing with a blunt, not actually smoking it, just spinning it around in her hands. "Do I really care about Delanie? No, not really. I just needed an excuse for my team and another team to gang up on someone. You heard what Melissa said. She wanted to 'take a chip off the Critics'. Not happening Meloser. Besides the Award Winners are already spiritually succeeding Team Victory, why not make them go down the same way?"

-End Confessional-

Over in the guys' trailer, Thomas was the only one currently awake, keeping a watchful eye on the other guys. Freddy woke up next, looking a bit uncomfortable with Thomas just staring down at him. "Good morning? You don't have a nightshift, don't gotta watch over us like it's cams." Freddy greeted Thomas, chuckling awkwardly afterward.

Thomas nodded, then hopped off his bunk. "Apologies. Chris is a scoundrel, you can never tell when he'll do something, especially in our sleep. Take care." Thomas warned Freddy, then briskly walked out of the trailer.

Thomas and Freddy talking woke up a few of the other guys, who all got up and began to get dressed. "Arrrr, rise and shine laddies! 4 eliminations in and we haven't lost a brother, let's keep it up!" Flynn greeted the other guys, letting out a hearty laugh afterward.

Kahlin wagged a finger at Flynn, snickering for a moment. "Ah ah, you pointed it out, so now the opposite has to happen! Thems the rules!" Kahlin objected.

Beck got dressed casually and walked up to Kahlin with his hands in his pockets. "Sounds like superstition to me. I read somewhere that if you believe in it, it's just a self-fulfilling prophecy or whatever." Beck commented.

Kahlin shrugged, patting Beck on the back. "Believe what you want, but you don't have a thing to worry about do you Beck?" Kahlin asked Beck coyly.

Beck raised an eyebrow, then leaned against the wall of the trailer. "I guess so? Things are going smoothly on our team now." Beck replied.

"Minus having the least amount of players now." Vergil threw in, leaning against the opposite wall and standing with his arms crossed.

"And Delanie still being on the team." Esteban added crankily.

"Yeah, minus that. Feeling good about today though. No way we lose twice in a row." Beck stayed optimistic, shrugging off the factors.

Kahlin nudged Beck's elbow, shaking his head. "There it is again! Pointing it out just makes it way more likely. I'll step out now before you dig yourself a bigger hole." Kahlin told Beck, then walked to the door of the trailer and left.

Jim and Klaas watched Kahlin leave, then looked at each other. "Man, I just can't get a read on that guy, and I'm usually good with that." Klaas commented, scratching his head.

Jim was more upset than confused though. "I don't trust him, not one bit. He says all that stuff about superstition, then watch us lose. I say we just boot him before we have a second Nanashi on the team." Jim suggested.

Klaas shook his head right away. "Now hold on. Nanashi isn't even bad, she's fine. Kahlin isn't saying we'll lose either. Superstition is one thing, but jumping to a conclusion like that is pretty reckless." Klaas argued, defending both of his teammates.

Jim got a smug grin on his face, then pointed at Klaas. "Oh yeah? Well by Kahlin's logic, a guy is getting eliminated tonight. There's four on our team, do you want it to be you?" Jim asked Klaas.

Klaas paused, while King walked between them. "He's got you there." was all King commented before he just left the trailer.

Before Klaas could answer, Vergil then walked between them. "I'm grabbing breakfast. You tagging along Jim?" Vergil asked Jim, gesturing to the door with his thumb.

"Yeah, better get food before the line gets long." Jim answered, then followed Vergil out the door.

Freddy looked awkwardly around the trailer, before just pointing at the door. "I'm just gonna... go. Gotta get Jack before the breakfast line gets long!" Freddy told the others as he then quickly left.

-Confessional: Mutant Movie Munchers: Vergil-

Vergil chuckled for a moment, then exhaled. "Man. Jim is dead set on Kahlin. Really not the best play to target him first. Klaas is a bigger threat since he and Nanashi could probably get something going. There can only be one alliance on our team. But I can't risk losing Jim, so if he wants to take out Kahlin next time we lose, then Kahlin it is."

-End Confessional-

Over in the craft services tent now, breakfast was being served. This time it was furry sausage and liver from... something. Melissa, Delanie, Thomas and Kahlin were already eating, while everyone else was in line getting their food. "Keep the line moving! I ain't got all day here!" Chef demanded as he brought another batch of meat to the counter.

Trixie looked at her food with disgust, then at Chef. "You don't have any time to make something that doesn't suck either do you?" Trixie remarked as she grabbed her tray.

Chef glared at Trixie and then flipped her tray up at her, getting the grease from the meat on her face as well as some of the fur from the sausage. "Didn't have time to develop a sense of humor either..." Trixie mumbled to herself as she walked away and sat down by herself at one of the tables.

Athena got her food from Chef with no complaint, just looking at her tray blankly as she sat down across from Trixie. "Ew, is this supposed to be furry? I can't even tell what animal it came from." Trixie asked, poking at her sausage with a fork.

"I believe it's supposed to be. Everyone else's sausages are furry as well." Athena answered, then took a bite. Trixie gagged as Athena did this, but held it down and decided to just cut a piece of the liver and eat it.

Trina grabbed her tray next, although Vergil and Jim were right behind her. As Trina tried to squeeze some ketchup from the bottle on the counter into one of the plastic cups to put on her tray, Vergil shoved her to ground and grabbed his tray. "Keep the line moving Smellwether!" Vergil told Trina, laughing afterward.

Trina stood up and dusted herself off, putting her food back on her tray after that. "Sir, I was simply trying to-" Trina began to explain herself, but Vergil just put a finger to her mouth.

"Don't need to hear it. It's Chef's food, ketchup ain't saving it. Now go." Vergil told Trina coldly.

Trina turned around to head to a table, but not before Vergil reached down and gave her a wedgie, and a rough one at that due to their height difference. Trina yelped and pulled herself away, but she didn't say anything to Vergil and instead just hurried to where Delanie was sitting and sat next to her. "Can't even defend herself, what a wimp." Vergil said to Jim, the two of them laughing together afterward, although Jim less so.

-Confessional: Mutant Movie Munchers: Vergil-

Vergil had his arms crossed, looking at the camera seriously. "Already know what you're thinking. 'How could I do that to poor little Trina?' Well I'll tell you. It's those snobbish rich types that piss me off the most. Just looking at her, Trina hasn't had to lift a finger in her life. Crapstains like her will bring up the law, talk all formal, and think they're better than everyone. Hate how my parents bow down to those types, but I don't. Never will. And I have make sure Trina knows that too."

-Confessional: Victorious Award Winners: Trina-

Trina fixed the damage Vergil had done before sitting down, then pulled out her notepad and began to write something down. "Did I do something during the challenges to make Vergil cross with me? I'd say it's awful, but people like him are common where I'm from. At least Vergil isn't forcing me to do his homework? I'll write a formal memo to him and apologize for whatever I did, then we'll be on good terms, I just know it!"

-End Confessional-

While everyone was now eating their food, some time went by before the lights suddenly went out. "Hey! Who turned out the lights?" Esteban asked, as it got pretty dark without them.

"Probably the budget, wouldn't surprise me if Chris couldn't pay for the lights." Trixie guessed, not bothered by the lack of lights.

Near the entrance, some shrieks were heard as a pair of red eyes entered, followed by the reveal of green glowing teeth. "GAH! V-Vampire! Begone unholy beast!" Jack screeched, grabbing his cross necklace and holding it out to whatever was glowing.

The lights came back on, revealing that it was just Chris with some plastic glow in the dark teeth. "Gotcha! You don't need the cross just yet!" Chris told Jack, who slowly lowered his cross.

"Nah, you still need it here." Kylie joked, earning an annoyed look from Chris.

Lilac looked excited though, raising a hand. "Are we doing vampire movies today?" she asked hopefully.

Chris nodded his head, spitting out the plastic teeth into his hand. "That's right Lilac! You'll all be vampires today, and you'll all be put the wringer for our vampire trope challenges!" Chris announced, although it didn't give much for the teens to go off so far.

Luis laughed a little, waving to Delanie. "Nya hear that? This cat is a vampire today! We might have this won, ha ha ha!" Luis did a Dracula impression, then laughed afterward.

Delanie had a serious look on her face, taking several deep breaths. "I don't know. With this vampiric power, it's dangerous... I might just... borb..." Delanie replied, clenching her left wrist with her right hand.

"Borb? Who are we talking to this time?" Beck asked, resting his face on his palm.

Delanie looked over Beck, then extended a hand. "Dr. Michelle Borbius. I fear becoming a vampire has some drastic consequences... I need blood..." Delanie introduced herself worriedly, while Beck just casually shook her hand.

"I'm sure Chris has some." Beck told her, then looked back to Chris.

Chris shook his head, putting his hands behind his back. "What vampire gets their blood delivered to them? No, you all will have to make your way to Soundstage 22 for that! Here's the catch, you guys have to stay in the shadows at all times, or else you're out!" Chris stated, bothering some.

Flynn didn't look too keen on the challenge, narrowing his eyes at Chris. "Aye, how do we get there though? It's still daytime. Why do we have to stay in the shadows anyway?" Flynn asked.

Jack scoffed, looking over at Flynn. "You've never seen a vampire movie? They have like a million weaknesses. One of them being the sun of course. In most original incarnations of vampires, the sun merely took away their powers or weakened them. That trait was flanderized to the heavens though, now the sun just kills vampires. I prefer the holy method of defeat though, works across multiple monsters." Jack explained and showed Flynn his wooden cross, now calmed down since Chris wasn't a vampire.

Chris nodded his head, then began to walk to the tent entrance. "I'll see you all there, unless you step out of the shadows, then I won't! Mwahaha! I'll be watching, so no cheating!" Chris tried to do a Dracula impression, then stepped out of the tent.

-Confessional: Toxic Film Critics: Freddy-

Freddy stepped into the makeup trailer and let out a huge sigh of relief. "Man, it is tough making it out here while staying in the shadows! But anyway, Lilac loves blood, I think we've got this. The girls were talking about ganging up on the Award Winners during breakfast, and uhh... after what Kahlin said this morning, I'm for it. Better them than us?"

-End Confessional-

The Film Critics stepped out of the tent first, and right away the challenge became clear. "Hold on guys, the shadow is pretty thin here!" Jack warned his teammates as he stepped out first.

There was only a small bit of shade coming off the tent, since they were on the front side at the moment. Kylie stepped out after Jack, then began to walk along the thin shadow. "We just have to make it to the soundstages right? Easy, we just go around the tent and stay in the shadows of the buildings." Kylie suggested.

Freddy nodded in agreement, staying close to Jack. "Yeah, definitely wanna just be quick about it." Freddy agreed with Kylie, walking quickly behind her.

"Chris didn't say it was a race..." Athena pointed out, but her words fell on deaf ears as the Critics all hurried single file line around the tent. She didn't look bothered by this though, and just followed her team.

Melissa and the Munchers hurried out next, with Melissa seeing what the Critics were doing right away. "Okay, they're just going around, we'll go the other way." Melissa ordered her team, right away jogging the other way after exiting the tent, although Kahlin passed her up quickly and went on ahead in the shadows.

Bonnie hurried up to Melissa though and tapped her shoulder. "Hey cap." Bonnie greeted Melissa, carrying an oddly blank tone.

Melissa looked back at Bonnie, already annoyed. "What is it? I'm not doing any of your perv crap, we're in a challenge." Melissa asked her harshly.

Bonnie chuckled, then shook her head. "No unfortunately, the Critics were just talking about ganging up on the Award Winners actually, in whatever the next challenge is. You down?" Bonnie informed Melissa, whose eyes widened at this information.

"Did they seriously offer that?" Melissa asked skeptically, looking to those behind Bonnie now.

Nanashi and Klaas were behind them, with Nanashi nodding to confirm. "Yup, that's what they said! Not the biggest fan, rigging the odds takes out the fun doesn't it?" Nanashi confirmed, not too happy about it.

"Rigging period takes the fun out of things, it's just not fair at all. We're going to play this fair and square." Melissa stated, then jogged further ahead.

Bonnie grumbled to herself, while Klaas and Nanashi looked pleased with Melissa's decision. That happiness didn't last long though as King ran up behind both of them and shoved them into the light. "Two down." was all King said as the two gamblers fell to the ground.

Klaas sat up and rubbed his back, glaring at King. "Dude, really?" Klaas asked in annoyance as he helped Nanashi back up.

King stopped and faced them, staying in the shadow of the tent, while Bonnie used this time to hurry away. "Nothing personal, just part of the challenge. Your fault for not playing it." King answered coldly, then ran off.

Vergil and Jim passed by them as well, with Klaas waving to them as they did so. "Watch for King. He's playing dirty again and shoving people." Klaas warned them.

Vergil cracked his knuckles, not looking worried at all. "Not a problem for me, if he tries to pull something, I'll let him talk to the fist." Vergil replied confidently.

"Right with you, no one messin with us hear?" Jim agreed, and the two then left Klaas and Nanashi behind.

While Klaas and Nanashi watched them leave, followed by the rest of the Award Winners, Nanashi looked over at Klaas. "What do we do now that we're out?" Nanashi asked him.

"Let's just head to the soundstage to cheer the others on. We can bet on who wins yeah?" Klaas told her, now just casually walking to the soundstage.

Nanashi giggled, following him. "Bet on who wins? Don't we want our team to win? Or do you think it'd be more fun if we lost this one?" Nanashi questioned him, having a mischievous smile on her face.

Klaas shrugged his shoulders. "We do, but we can take a guess on the odds one of the other teams winning right? Just because we want it doesn't mean we can't predict other outcomes." Klaas replied, giving her a playful elbow afterward.

-Confessional: Mutant Movie Munchers: Nanashi-

Nanashi had both hands on her lap, giggling for a moment. "Klaas is someone who has a good head on his shoulders, definitely. He just gets me, better than Melissa who thinks I'm trying to throw challenges! He sees the fun in guessing and losing! Kinda glad I got out right away now, because that means I get to just hang out with him! Ooh, I hope Melissa doesn't think I threw again, that'd be unfortunate. But hey, that's how the dice roll sometimes!"

-End Confessional-

While King had gone off ahead, the rest of the Award Winners were just jogging behind the other teams. Past the tent was just the rows of soundstages, which had plenty of shadows coming off of them to walk in. "I don't think Chris planned this challenge very well, this isn't hard at all. Good for us at least." Esteban commented as they jogged past one of the soundstages.

Beck nodded in agreement, jogging right behind him. "Yeah, pretty sure he just wanted us to get in character or whatever. My acting teacher back at art school would have us do some out there stuff to get into character." Beck added, chuckling afterward.

"What kind of weird stuff sir?" Trina asked, having her notepad out while jogging.

Beck looked back at Trina for moment, shrugging his shoulders. "Eh, just stuff like going to a hospital to really get into the vibe of a sick person, or trying to scare us at a pool party to make us on edge. Stuff like that." Beck answered, as if that was normal.

"Sounds like your teacher is pretty odd. The hospital one is dangerous too, if I was a teacher, I'd never take my students to observe sick people." Esteban remarked, slightly concerned.

"That's art school for you." Beck joked, which got a small chuckle from Esteban and Toby as well.

Delanie wasn't finding it too funny though, hunched over a bit while having her hands on her head. "The light... even when I am not basking in it's relentless warmth, its very presence is draining..." Delanie groaned.

Toby rushed over to Delanie, looking her over. "Don't worry Delanie, we'll get you inside soon. The soundstage isn't far from here." Toby assured Delanie.

"It's Michelle sir. Michelle Borbius." Trina corrected Toby, now also jogging by Delanie's side.

"Thank nya for the info Trina! But yeah, what he said, we'll get nya to the nearest cattery lickity split!" Luis assured Delanie, giving her a thumbs up.

Delanie groaned again though, pulling her hair a bit. "I'm gonna borb..." she muttered out of pain.

Up ahead, the Critics were almost at the door to Soundstage 22, still running together. Trixie looked back though, seeing King running right towards them. "Hey guys, King is coming for us, should we just push him out? That way the Munchers know for sure we're on their side." Trixie suggested.

"I think that's what he's coming to do to us." Lilac pointed out, seeing the determination in King's eyes.

King wasn't shouting at them or saying anything to greet them, he was just sprinting towards them at an inescapable speed. "Yeah, definitely not here to hang out. Jack, what do we do?" Freddy asked Jack, who now looked back as well.

Jack gulped, but then stopped jogging. "Just go on, I'll hold him off!" Jack told his team, letting them all run ahead.

Jack stood in front of Soundstage 21, staying in its shadow and just letting King catch up to him. "No one plays dirty against my team!" Jack declared, clenching his fists and readying himself for a fight.

-Confessional: Toxic Film Critics: Jack-

Jack had a cast on his right arm, with his left hand having several bandages wrapped around it. "In every action flick, the guy who stays behind and lets everyone go forward usually dies, but they look super cool when they do it. And it's just a challenge, so no harm in looking cool right?" Jack tried to shrug his shoulders, but then winced in pain. "Ow!"

-End Confessional-

Jack reared his fist and threw a punch just as King got close, but King could easily see that coming since Jack had dramatically reared his fist. "One word. Subtlety." King told Jack as he grabbed Jack's right arm.

Jack gasped as King did this, then yelped as King bent it the wrong way. "Crap! Not going down that easy! Take this!" Jack let out, then tried to punch King in the chest with his other hand.

King just elbowed that hand as it came towards him though, again making Jack yelp since it was his weaker hand. "Ah yes, declaring when you'll attack. Good move. Disappointed honestly, you're the captain of the Critics." King taunted Jack, although he just sounded more sad than anything.

Jack didn't let him get away with the taunting though, just letting out a yell as he wrapped both arms around King and leapt forward. Both of them fell back, making them both fall out of the shadow of the soundstage. "Eh, already did enough." King conceded, pushing Jack off of him and standing up.

Jack stood up as well, while the rest of the Munchers now passed by. "Oh, someone else already got him? Props dude." Vergil complimented Jack as he passed by.

Jack tried to wave to Vergil, but had to lower his arm due to the pain. "Okay that thing is definitely dislocated..." Jack mumbled, now just walking to the soundstage.

The Award Winners passed by last, with Esteban frowning when he saw King just walking in the light. "What happened with you? We're supposed to stay in the shadows, we're vampires remember?" Esteban asked King sharply.

"I thinned the competition for you guys. Took out Jack, Klaas, and Nanashi. You can thank me later." King answered, annoying Esteban a bit.

-Confessional: Victorious Award Winners: Esteban-

Esteban had his arms crossed, tapping his fingers on his arms. "I don't care for King's attitude. He thinks that he can just go off on his own and do what he wants, then expects us to thank him? If it works it works, but he could at least communicate that to us so we could at least help. Communication is a bit of an issue on our team I'm noticing..."

-End Confessional-

Chris was waiting for the contestants inside of the soundstage, which was a gloomy medieval castle, with a second floor façade above. He was now wearing a black coat and cape, with his hair slicked back. As the teams came in one by one, Chris put away his tablet after seeing who stepped out of the shadows. "1 team, ah ah ah! 2 team, ah ah ah! 3 teams, ah ah ah! You all lost a member or two on your way here, less blood for the second part of your challenge!" Chris greeted the teams, which brought a smile to Toby's face.

"You sound like my paw pal, Count Givula!" Luis exclaimed, getting a few eyes to look towards Toby.

"Count Givula? What kind of Dracula knockoff is that?" Kylie asked Toby.

Toby pet Luis on the back, looking over at Kylie as he did so. "Count Givula is a friend of Luis's. He helps me run the local blood drive for the children's hospital when I do it during the summer. A lot of kids are relaxing during the summer, so why not donate blood to help a fellow kid in need? Count Givula helps keep the mood light, the kids love him." Toby explained.

"It's for a good cause, can't knock the hustle then." Trixie told Kylie, who nodded in agreement.

Delanie perked up though at hearing Toby talk about blood. "Do you... have blood? I need some... or else I'll borb all over you guys. You wouldn't want that. I don't want that either." Delanie asked Chris, sounding both tired and hopeful.

"Well what's your blood type? You can't just get any old blood. Wonder why vampires never consider blood types honestly. Maybe that's why they're evil, they just get blood poisoning but can't die?" Lilac hypothesized, tapping her chin.

Chris nodded his head and ignored Lilac, while Chef wheeled in 21 red backpacks on a cart. "Your second challenge will be all about blood! As you all know, vampires need blood to survive. So you'll all get a backpack full of fake blood! That's your blood supply." Chris began to explain the challenge, with Chef tossing the remaining players backpacks.

Delanie put her backpack on, then sighed with relief. "Phew, sustenance, much appreciated." Delanie thanked Chris as she got her backpack on, having the blood seeming to do the trick.

Chris then continued, grabbing one of the unused backpacks. "Inside your backpacks are wooden stakes. These are famously deadly to vampires when they get stabbed by them! Your challenge is to take out the blood supply of the other teams with your wooden stake! Stab their backpack, and that's the end of that vampire!" Chris explained to the teams.

Jack scoffed, pointing at Chris. "Vampires shouldn't be able to grab the stakes anyway." Jack pointed out.

"And you're supposed to be dead, but things aren't always accurate are they?" Chris reminded Jack angrily.

Jack groaned, then just stayed quiet as he remained seated in the audience seats of the soundstage with King, Klaas, and Nanashi. "So whichever team has all their vampires die first loses?" Trixie asked, gaining a devious smirk.

Chris nodded his head. "That's right! You have 20 seconds to disperse on this set before you can begin your vampire hunting! Go!" Chris started the challenge, then started a stopwatch.

-Confessional: Toxic Film Critics: Trixie-

Trixie snickered, flipping her wooden stake in her hand. "With Jack out of the challenge, I can pretty much take leadership here. We gang up on the Award Winners, although I'll 'accidentally' take out a Muncher or two just so we don't get into any risk. Good thing King is out of the picture too, he would have been a real pain to catch. We already have the numbers advantage, we'll be fine."

-End Confessional-

As soon as Chris started the countdown, everyone split up through the fake castle, which was just façade walls with LED torches dispersed throughout. Unfortunately, there was also several barrels of toxic waste being stored here. Bonnie didn't stick with her team, instead following Thomas over to one corner of the set. "You know our teams are teaming up against the Award Winners right?" Bonnie asked Thomas.

Thomas nodded, not looking her way. "I've heard of the proposition yes. Any sign of double crossing and I will take you out." Thomas stated firmly, gripping his wooden stake tight.

Since Thomas wasn't looking at her, Bonnie just took a step back, then began to ogle his body while Thomas watched for anyone approaching. "I'll be keeping watch too." Bonnie told Thomas. "Of your butt that is... oh so toned..." Bonnie whispered to herself in addition.

Lilac, Kahlin, Athena, and Flynn all went up to the second floor, although it really was just a façade that better resembled a balcony than an actual floor. Lilac and Flynn stuck together behind one of the walls, while Athena went to the very edge of the balcony. "We can just use this 'ere spot as a choke point ya see? Anyone comes up and we get 'em!" Flynn whisper-yelled to Lilac, who gave a thumbs up to the idea.

The 20 seconds went by quickly, and Chris stepped off the stage. "Your time is up! Vampires... FEAST!" Chris started the hunt, which certainly got it going.

Jim wasted no time in running up to Beck, who had just emerged from behind one of the walls, and dug his stake into his backpack. "Right away? Come on dude..." Beck complained, looking behind him and seeing the prop blood spilling out of his backpack.

Jim shrugged, pulling his stake back out. "Just the challenge. Nothing else to say 'bout it y'know?" Jim told Beck, then hurried away.

Beck stepped off the stage after that, sitting down with the others that had already gotten out. "I'm gonna bet that the Critics win, the numbers just really stack this in their favor." Klaas guessed, looking over the whole set.

Nanashi shook her head. "I think our team will get it, Jim, Melissa and Vergil are just really good physically. The odds put it in our favor unfortunately." Nanashi argued, also watching intently.

-Confessional: Victorious Award Winners: Beck-

Beck scratched his head, a little confused. "Were they betting on who'll win? Rooting against your own team is kinda weird."

-End Confessional-

Vergil was also taking a more aggressive approach, chasing Toby at the moment. The puppeteer was hiding behind several waste barrels, although Vergil still easily found him. "Sorry Henson, gotta take your team out." Vergil joked as he went to stab Toby's backpack.

Toby ducked down though, avoiding the stake entirely. This caused Vergil to instead stab one of the waste barrels, poking a hole in it. "Crap!" Vergil let out as he heard a small hissing from the barrel.

Vergil ran off, while Toby quickly turned the waste barrel around, making the toxic waste avoid spraying him. "Phew, at least he left us alone. I think we'll be safe for a bit." Toby told Luis as he ducked back down behind the waste barrels.

Luis nodded, holding the stake at the moment. "Nyeah, we could probably sneak in a catnap hidden here!" Luis agreed, then closed his eyes to sleep for a bit.

Kylie and Esteban were in a little standoff at the moment, circling around each other and trying to get an opening to the other's backpack. "I don't want to get physical with a lady, but I will if I have to!" Esteban warned Kylie.

Kylie snorted, before going for a stab. "A gentleman? Looks like this'll be easy!" Kylie remarked.

Kylie couldn't reach all the way around Esteban, leaving herself open. Esteban took this easy chance and just stabbed her backpack as she tried to go around him, making Kylie groan in defeat. "Shouldn't have said anything..." Kylie muttered to herself as she saw the blood dripping from her backpack.

Before Esteban could say anything to her though, Freddy stabbed his stake into Esteban's backpack now that his guard was down. "Gotcha! You may have closed one door, but you weren't even checking coms on that one!" Freddy exclaimed.

"Got me off guard fair and square, can't knock that. Hopefully the others do well." Esteban told Freddy, then looked to see how his other teammates were doing as he stepped off the stage.

Delanie was faring a little better than him, currently having a swingout against Jim. "I... need... your... BLOOD!" Delanie yelled at him as she furiously swung her stake at him.

"Jeez lass, it just be a challenge!" Jim let out as he kept having to step back, not wanting to be cut for real.

Delanie used this pressure to advantage though and swept his leg as he stepped back, then swiftly stabbed his backpack as he fell down. "Yes... blood!" Delanie cheered as she then knelt down and began to lap up the prop blood.

"What wrong with ye?" Jim asked, baffled by her behavior.

While Delanie was lapping up the blood though, Vergil just jogged up to her and stabbed her backpack. "Ugh, at least I borbed one person. My lust for blood consumed me..." Delanie conceded, getting off of Jim and letting him up.

Vergil chuckled, offering Jim a fist bump. "Yeah, these 1 for 1s won't work out though when your entire team is taking them." Vergil pointed out, gesturing to Beck and Esteban already in the audience. Delanie looked at the audience, then gasped as she saw how her team was being picked off.

-Confessional: Mutant Movie Munchers: Vergil-

Vergil carved a horned devil into the counter of the confessional, having a confident smile on his face. "So glad we're doing this gang up. Especially, when it's all weirdos and losers like the Award Winners. Only decent guy there is Beck, but I won't really miss him."

-End Confessional-

Kahlin was just chilling on the second floor, looking down at the fights below. He saw Athena sitting by herself, so he walked over and sat down next to her. "You're taking in the view too huh?" Kahlin asked her.

Athena heard him and just immediately stabbed his backpack without hesitation. "Got you." Athena taunted, although it was completely monotone.

Kahlin was shocked by this, unsure of what to say first. "Oh, that... wasn't what I was expecting. Dang. I thought we were teaming up for the challenge." Kahlin told her, rubbing the back of his head.

"We aren't on the same team." Athena replied bluntly.

Kahlin chuckled, standing back up. "You know what, that is a good point. Good luck then!" Kahlin wished Athena as he walked across the balcony to head back down to the audience.

Melissa was in a small standoff with Trina, who had backed herself up against a wall to try and block anyone from getting her backpack. "Give it up, I've got you cornered, no reason to keep going." Melissa told her, holding her stake out.

Trina held her ground though, also holding her stake out. "I think I'll just stay right here! Friends?" Trina tried to be nice, already knowing she wouldn't be able to get one up on Melissa here.

"Sorry, but our team already got that covered." Trixie chimed in, walking to the two of them. "Our teams truced to take yours down, hate to break it to ya." Trixie told Trina, snickering afterward.

Melissa lowered her stake, glaring at Trixie. "When did I agree to that? That's playing dirty, and extremely unsportsmanlike!" Melissa chastised Trixie, astonished to hear that the team truce was still on the table.

As soon as Melissa said this though, Trixie stabbed Melissa in the back, making blood pour out of her backpack. "There, targeted you too." Trixie replied snarkily, surprising Melissa.

"You little- ugh! You'd be sorry if we were on the same team!" Melissa shouted at Trixie, then stormed off the set and to the audience.

Since Trixie had taken out Melissa, Trina used this time to run away from the wall to try and get to a better spot. "Bad choice, we were prepared for that." Trixie taunted Trina, not even giving chase.

As soon as Trina stepped into the middle of the castle, both Lilac and Flynn hopped down and cut her path off, with Vergil joining them as well. "Sorry not sorry Smellwether, but you're just fodder for us." Vergil told her as he stabbed her backpack.

Trina took off her backpack and sighed, walking off the set. "You know, I wonder what brand of prop blood they used. You can tell by the taste actually." Lilac pondered, kneeling down and rubbing her finger across the prop blood leaking out of the backpack.

Lilac licked her finger after that, getting grossed out looks from the others. "Hmm, a bit watery. Cheap. It's definitely Spirit Halloween blood, just what I expected of Chris." Lilac deduced.

"That's just weird lassie." Flynn told her, taking a step away from Lilac.

Thomas and Bonnie now walked up to the group, with neither of them even attempting to attack. "Can't see anyone else, it's just us now." Thomas told the others.

"And Athena up there." Lilac added, pointing to the Brit just sitting on the second floor by herself.

Trixie nodded, then offered Vergil a high-five. "Nice working with you guys. Thomas?" Trixie thanked the two remaining Munchers, happy with this result.

Vergil returned the high-five, while Bonnie had a satisfied smirk. "Yup, made things much easi- HEY!" Vergil was cut off by Thomas stabbing both his and Bonnie's backpacks.

"Makes things easier if we just take first. Nice working with ya." Trixie restated, getting a small grumble from Vergil.

"Yeah, all we had to do was not get last, you have a point." Vergil agreed with her reluctantly.

-Confessional: Toxic Film Critics: Freddy-

Freddy rubbed one of his arms, not looking the most happy. "Sure we won, but that didn't really feel fair at all. Our other wins were earned, why couldn't we just play this one out fair and square?"

-End Confessional-

The sounds of eerie organ keys filled the soundstage after that, with Chris walking onto the set and clapping his hands. "The challenge has come to a close! With a backstabbing no less, always a classic in vampire dramas!" Chris announced.

While Vergil and Bonnie took their backpacks off, Chris walked up to the Critics all standing together except for Athena. "Congrats Toxic Film Critics, you guys avoid elimination yet again!" Chris declared, making them all high-five each other. In the audience, Jack and Kylie shared a high five as well, although Jack yelped in pain from his hand being hit.

Chris then turned to Bonnie and Vergil. "Mutant Movie Munchers, I'll see you at the award ceremony tonight. Didn't expect you guys to just give up like that!" Chris informed them, shocking everyone.

"We got 2nd though? Or are we getting disqualified for teaming?" Bonnie asked, just as confused as everyone else.

Chris shook his head. "Nope, and nope. I'm fine with teaming as long as it keeps the drama up, and it certainly helped here! But you guys forgot an Award Winner in your little scheme!" Chris replied, pointing to the corner of the set with the waste barrels.

Toby stood up from them, taking off his backpack once he did. "I thought you got Toby!" Trixie scolded Freddy right away.

"I thought they were going to get him! I got Esteban, so I did my part!" Freddy defended himself.

Chris gave a wave of dismissal to them though. "You guys won, why are you getting worked up? It's the Munchers who should be worried, since they'll be sending someone home! You guys can head back to your trailers for now." Chris dismissed the teams, letting everyone walk off set and everyone from the audience to get up from the benches.

-Confessional: Toxic Film Critics: Athena-

Athena had both hands on the counter, looking directly at the camera. "They forgot Toby. Funny... that happens to me sometimes. I wonder if we could be... I forgot what it's called when someone and someone are close. But we have that in common."

-End Confessional-

Later in the day, most of the contestants had now made it back to the trailers. Melissa had her arms crossed as she walked, very bitter over this loss. "I can't believe they went behind my back and formed a truce, and it cost us the game!" Melissa vented to herself.

Klaas was walking not far behind her, and he jogged up to her side as she vented this. "I tried to tell them it's wrong to rig the odds, but I think Trixie probably talked them into it." Klaas told her, sounding sympathetic.

"Yeah, and of course King targeted you. Would have been nice to have more honest members of our team in that second round. We could have easily beat those wimpy Critics!" Melissa further complained.

Before they split off to head off to their own trailers, Trina ran up to both of them, holding her notepad. "Ma'am! Sir! Have you seen Vergil?" Trina asked them, catching their attention.

Melissa looked down at the secretary, raising an eyebrow. "Why do you need to know where he is? Are you trying to form a truce now?" Melissa asked her skeptically.

Trina shook her head right away. "No ma'am, of course not. I wanted to give him an apology note for something between us earlier. But I can't find him anywhere." Trina answered, pulling out a loose paper that came from her notepad.

Klaas shrugged, raising both hands. "No clue. He's probably hanging out with Jim somewhere." Klaas guessed.

Trina tilted her head, putting one hand on her chin. "Hmm, he sure hangs out with Jim a lot, doesn't he sir? They must be just wonderful friends." Trina pointed out, giggling afterward.

Melissa didn't find it humorous though, also thinking about it. "They do hang out a lot..." Melissa pondered.

Klaas took the paper from Trina, then put it in his pocket. "Well I'll try to find him and pass the note then. Sorry about our team targeting yours by the way, I tried to stop them from doing that, but they didn't listen." Klaas apologized.

"No worries sir! No hard feelings here. Just know you'll always have a friend on the Award Winners! And we'll always play friendly competition fair sir." Trina took the apology, then merrily walked away.

Melissa didn't say anything else to Klaas after Trina left, now deep in thought. "Guess I've got a note to deliver." Klaas said to himself as he walked his own way to go find Vergil.

-Confessional: Mutant Movie Munchers: Melissa-

Melissa tapped her fingers from one hand on the counter, her other hand on her chin. "If I had to guess, Bonnie, Vergil, and Jim were the ones behind the truce. Kahlin wouldn't stoop to that level, while Klaas and Nanashi weren't even part of the scheme. Why do the complicated strategy schemes have to go down on our team? I'm trying to get these guys to play fairly, but they just have to do this!"

-End Confessional-

Vergil and Jim were hanging out behind the guys' trailer, just chatting with each other when Klaas found them. "There you guys are, had a feeling I'd find both of you together." Klaas greeted them, giving a quick wave.

Vergil gave him a quick wave back, while Jim stiffened up. "What do you want?" Jim asked coldly.

"Just delivering a note from Trina. Apparently it's an apology note. Here you go Vergil." Klaas answered, pulling the paper out of his pocket and handing it to the thug.

Vergil took it and stuffed it into his pocket. "Smellwether sucking up? What a surprise. Anyway, we were hoping to talk to you about tonight's elimination." Vergil told him, beckoning for Klaas to stay.

Klaas raised an eyebrow curiously, staying as Vergil gestured. "Oh? You want me to vote with your alliance? Because it's pretty obvious at this point that's what you guys have going on." Klaas questioned bluntly.

"Well, yeah. We're gunning for Kahlin. Dude's been asking for it." Jim answered just as bluntly.

"Why not Bonnie? She's easy to just get out of here, and she didn't do much in the challenge." Klaas suggested.

Vergil shook his head, then gestured to the trailer. "Remember what Kahlin was talking about this morning? One of the guys is going. He made it sound like it's a superstition thing, but he's probably rallying votes against one of us. He's already close with Melissa, and he's probably scooping up Bonnie's vote as well. If you don't vote with us, you might not even have a shot at a tiebreaker." Vergil explained.

"Makes sense. He's hard to get a read on. I'll go with Kahlin then." Klaas accepted Vergil's explanation, holding his hand out to shake.

Vergil shook it, sharing a grin with Jim as he did so. "Great, sounds like we'll breeze through this." Vergil told Klaas, with Jim nodding in agreement.

-Confessional: Mutant Movie Munchers: Vergil-

Vergil leaned back in the chair a bit, smirking at the camera. "Kahlin could be going for any of us honestly, but I needed Klaas to know that it could be him going as well in order to secure his vote. Once Kahlin is out, then it's a 3v3 at worst. I know Klaas and Nanashi are buds, so we could probably just rule the team and get Melissa out of here next before she catches onto us." Vergil explained his plan, chuckling afterward.

Vergil then reached into his pocket and pulled out Trina's apology note. "Might as well read this thing, wonder how much of a suck up she really is. 'Dear Vergil, you're probably really mad at me right now, although whatever you're going through right now probably justifies your harsh treatment of me in your head. I don't like bullies, and unlike the snooty people you lump me in with, I am not like them. I try to make a change for a better and get rid of the problem. So if we can start anew after the show, possibly as friends, that would be wonderful. -Trina.' Heh, she really just said she's not like the other girls huh? Yeah, not happening. When I actually see that change, then I'll believe it. You don't just get rid of a problem like these politicians think you can."

-End Confessional-

Grandiose music played after the confessionals, showing a highlight reel of all of Chris's best moments and expressions from throughout the series. Fireworks could be heard, and the reel panned out to show a giant Gilded Chris in the center of it all. Fireworks went off behind the statue and the music got louder, signaling that the award ceremony was about to start.

The 7 members of the Mutant Movie Munchers were seated in the bleachers in two rows, with plenty of tension in the air. In the front sat Jim, Vergil, and Kahlin, while in the back sat Klaas, Nanashi, Melissa, and Bonnie. "Welcome to your second award ceremony Munchers! That truce didn't work out too well for you did it?" Chris greeted the team, walking on stage in his blue suit.

He was of course met with silence, as expected. "Yeah, that's the sound of it working. Anyway, vote for who you want gone on your devices!" Chris ordered, prompting everyone to get their voting tablets.

Nanashi voted right away, and Klaas watched Jim and Vergil before placing his vote. Bonnie also voted right away, Kahlin voted after a second to make sure it was the right person, and Melissa hesitated for a moment before voting. "And the votes are in!" Chris announced after Melissa voted.

Chef brought over a slip of paper, as well as the tray of 6 Gilded Chrises. Chris looked over the vote results, then grabbed the first statue off the tray. "And the Gilded Chrises go to..."

...

"Nanashi."

"Lucky me!" Nanashi exclaimed as the statue was tossed her way.

...

"Jim."

Jim smirked and caught his statue, relieved to not even be targeted.

...

"Melissa."

Melissa raised her arm and caught her statue, but she didn't look happy despite being safe.

...

"Klaas."

Klaas high-fived Nanashi as he was tossed his statue, with the latter relieved the former was safe.

Chris looked at the three without statues still, tossing the second to last statue in his hand. "You three, votes were split among you, so any one of you could be going!" Chris stated, gauging their reactions.

Bonnie wasn't shocked to be here, but she still looked a little uneasy. Vergil had a stone cold look on his face, already knowing where the votes went. Kahlin looked a bit confused, not sure what he did. "Man, getting taken out by Athena was that bad? Guess that one was on me!" Kahlin joked, trying to lighten the mood.

"Yeah, that's totally why you're here. Bonnie, no one here really likes you. And you made a truce that didn't work at all. Vergil, you also let yourself get taken out at the end, not the best look. Kahlin, you spelled it out already." Chris went off why they were here, letting the suspense build.

Chris then got ready to toss the next statue. "But the next one safe is..."

...

"Bonnie."

Bonnie looked a little surprised, but still accepted the statue as it was thrown her way. "Guess you guys are stuck with me a little longer." Bonnie commented as she caught her statue.

Kahlin and Vergil looked at each other after Bonnie got her statue, now knowing that one of them was going next. "Alright boys, the last Gilded Chris goes to..."

...

"Kahlin."

Kahlin looked pleasantly surprised to be safe, catching his statue by the legs. "Wow, and here I thought I was doomed since I voted for Bonnie! No hard feelings, you get it." Kahlin exclaimed, then addressed the perv.

"Yeah it's kinda earned." Bonnie agreed with him.

Vergil on the other hand was stunned, standing up. "Oh you gotta be fricking kidding me. No tiebreaker? It should be 3-3! Don't give me that time slot stuff anyway, you can just edit the episode!" Vergil argued angrily.

"Actually, it was 4-2! Always a shock, I know. I'd head off to the limo before we call security if I were you." Chris told Vergil, further stunning him.

Jim and Vergil now both glared at Klaas, who just shrugged his shoulders. "What can I say, you guys play a dirty and dangerous game. You really had some villain plans going there, and that kinda kills the fun of the game when you lay out all the eliminations like that." Klaas explained, with Nanashi nodding in agreement.

"You voted me off... FOR FUN!? I can't with you people. I'm just going now, Jim, do not let these backstabbers merge." Vergil addressed Jim, then stormed off.

"Oh I'll do more than that. No double crossers get away." Jim replied, still glaring at Klaas.

Vergil stormed down the Walk of Shame, then got in the Lame-o-sine and slammed the door, letting it speed off into the night. Chris didn't even get a chance to throw an insult at Jim before he left, just barely arriving at where the Lame-o-sine was parked as it left. "Wow, talk about a double crossing! Dude was stabbed in the back enough times today, literally!" Chris joked.

Chris then faced the camera, putting his vampire teeth back in. "But will Jim really be able to avenge his-a partner in crime? Will Klaas and Nanashi get the fun they want? And are the Critics really invincible? Find out next time, on Total, Drama, Reeeeeeeeeevenge of the Film Lot! Graawr! OwO- never doing that again. Nope." Chris tried to make vampire noises, but failed utterly as he signed off the episode.

Author's Note:

TDFan here! Sorry for the delay on this one, finals week for college kinda put this project on hold, but now that that's over, here we are! Vergil was honestly somehow I had plenty of plans for, but uh, someone needed to go here. That's how a lot of these early eliminations feel for me. I don't want to boot someone, but that's how the show goes. And now I'm starting to understand why Action did a reward challenge every other episode. For plotlines, having no one go really does help. But this a full cast, so we gotta stay on schedule. Thank you to Epifanio Therion for sending Vergil in, he was fun as a sort of fake-out antag while he was here! Your other OC I imagined going earlier, but here Vergil is going before them. Oh how plans change. Let me know what you guys thought in the reviews, and I'll see you all next time! Be sure to join the Discord (join code on profile) if you haven't. Votes are revealed there, along with a bunch of other bonuses, so join on in if you haven't! Have a great day!
