Last time on Total Drama Fandom Action, the campers got all sticky sweet trying to win over sugar-loving Season 1 winners Owen and Mabel. Alfred Jones soared high after his bottom placement earlier to win the challenge. In the end, the Killer Whales' inner conflict led to Squidward's dastardly scheming to eliminate Mermista. With both our waterbenders gone, is our season doomed to dry out? Find out here on TOTAL! DRAMA! FANDOM! ISLAND!
The explosions outside the trailer rocked the Rockets awake.
"The Jerries are making a move for it!"
"Meowth, the balloon fuselage!"
"They got another Raze on their team!"
"CHERRY, YOU ARE GOING TO BE GROUNDED AFTER THIS!"
Having uttered these upon waking, the four realized the explosions were coming from the outside. Alfred ran for the windows, while Jessie groggily got up. Raze and Almond followed suit. The sky outside had gotten dusty gray, the trees were on fire, and there were trenches dug all around. As the Rockets got out of the trailer, the entire studio had been turned into a battlefield. Alfred immediately crumpled into a heap.
"NO NO NO NO! I DID NOT SIGN UP TO GO BACK TO 'NAM! NO, I-"
"GET A GRIP, KID!" said Almond, slapping him around. The old cookie surveyed the area and found the Victors and the Whales in a similar state of panic and confusion. He hollered at them to group up and follow him to the Grounds. The eleven remaining campers eventually found their way, dodging what seemed to be real gunfire emanating all around them.
Neville pulled out his wand as Ty Le came near. "You know I can keep you sa-"
"DUCK!" Ty Lee tackled Neville into the ground.
Neville: Welp, five seconds has GOT to be the shortest a knight in shining armor's lived…
"Alright, is that everyone? Good, let's hold position and wait for instructions," said Almond.
"Y'all kids lucky to have Almond to kennel you around," said Chef, emerging from the bushes.
"Let me guess," said Leslie. "The war challenge?"
"That's right, Daisy Bell. This week, we'll be testing your teams' ability to work together in the heat of the moment! For this week's challenge, you're gonna be rescuing one of three war prisoners: Tyler, Brick and Ripper! These guys are being held by enemy troops to the south of our current location. You will draw lots to find out who rescues who! Rockets, you're up!"
"Alright," said Almond. "Let's see… I see a young man in a red track suit"
"That's Tyler. He's to the southeast"
The Whales drew next, getting Ripper. "Ugh," said Ty Lee. "I can FEEL his aura from that photo!" Squidward took a peek himself. "Oh, honey you can SMELL him from this photo…"
The Victors picked last. They got Brick.
"Campers! There will be enemy forces scattered across the jungle and WILL try to forcefully shut you down! Get out there and get the mission DONE!"
"Aye, Chef!"
The Whales were down to three and were at a huge disadvantage for the challenge. "How did it get to this?!" said Squidward, complaining as he picked leeches off of him.
"Gee, I wonder if someone's scheming's the reason why…" said Momo dryly.
"No use fighting now, guys!" said Ty Lee. "We NEED to win this week!"
They came across a well-guarded fortress. Armed… Chrises were patrolling the grounds. "What the he-" Squidward started before Momo cut him off. "Chris-bots," she murmured. "I heard about them in Pahkitew".
"At least we can let loose, given they're just bots," said Ty Lee.
"Squidward, sneak in and try to free Tyler from inside the compound. Ty Lee and I can handle the bots."
"Got it," Squidward gulped.
Squidward: Today's challenge is the Wartime, trench warfare, hostage taking, hostage rescuing, get me the hell outta here, I didn't do boot camp, challenge…
Momo pulled out a bazooka from her belly and opened fire, Ty Lee tumbled into the heat of the crowd and took down robots one by one with surprising alacrity. Squidward was ducking and dodging bullets as the robots' attentions were turned to the girls.
Meanwhile, the Victors were carving a warpath through their own robots. Alphys pulled out an EMP and disabled a large chunk of the robots, while Sherb butted several Chris-bots to smithereens. Neville used Revelio to find Brick as Leslie used their vines to unlock the gates.
Sherb: YES! YES! BRING ME MORE TO SLAUGHTER! AHAHAHAHAHAHHHAHAAA!
The Rockets operated professionally. Jessie's Yanmega made short work of the robots with its Sonic Boom. Raze gunned down the others as Alfred pulled out a Swiss knife to key the lock open.
"Wait!" yelled Almond. He threw some handcuffs at the door and land mines exploded in reaction.
"Oooh, good call, Almondzinho!"
"Chris is REALLY trying to kill us…" muttered Alfred.
Jessie used her Frillish's Psychic to detect any more mines while Raze used her Paintshell to blow the gate into smithereens.
Tyler was waiting for them inside. "Wow, you guys are a great team! We need to get to the beaches, Chef's waiting for us there! The robots will regroup soon!"
"You heard the man, let's get outta here!" said Raze.
Suddenly, a wave of robots burst through the back door. One fired an electromagnetic net that took down Jessie and her Pokemon. Alfred was pinned down and Raze was down to her last bullet on her Vandal.
"WHAT DO WE DO, WHAT DO WE-"
Almond sighed. "Do I have to do all the work here?" He threw one of his magic cuffs at a robot. The chain reaction soon linked all the robots and Almond yelled for Raze to fire her last bullet at the front robot. She fired, and all fifty or so of them collapsed as the damage was magically distributed across the cufflinks.
"Damn, you're giving Brimstone a run for his money with that clutch!"
Almond rolled his eyes but allowed a grin. "Come on, kids. It's time to go home"
Ty Lee and Momo were cornered now. The robots were simply too many for them.
"Momo, before we die, I just want you to know… I think Neville has a crush on me, what do YOU think?"
"YOU'RE THE ONE WHO READS AURAS AND YOU COULDN'T TELL?!"
"Oh, my aural vision's blurry in matters of romantics…"
They closed their eyes, but then they realized they should've covered their ears instead: A shrill sound erupted that caused the robots to short circuit.
"The Sour Note strikes! Vengeance has fallen!" said Squidward, putting his clarinet back into his bag, Ripper running behind him.
"Gee, Squidward, it's a good thing your team had a man, or else these girls would've been-"
Ripper failed to finish what he was saying as Ty Lee poked him in the solar plexus, immediately paralyzing him.
"Thank you," said Momo. "I was going to pull out a more… permanent solution from my cleavage…"
The Victors had found Brick and were on their way out when Sherb suddenly made a wrong turn. "We can finish them off, once and for all!"
Leslie: Girl, he is OFF the beaten track. Something happened in the wildcard and now he's nuttier than a room full of Laganjas…
"Sherb, there's no time! The mission isn't to destroy the robots-"
Sherb heard nothing but the bloodlust as he bashed more robots with his head, kicking with his hooves, tearing at their copper innards and cackling.
"Sherb! Your team needs to retreat!" said Brick.
"We are SO losing," said Neville. "By the way, you were talking about opening up?"
"Go straight to Ty Lee and let her know!" said Brick. "I would've NEVER gotten on with Jo if I hadn't taken that first step,"
"Look, I love that you boys are being open with your feelings and all, but WE NEED TO GET THAT GOAT BACK!" yelled Leslie.
The Rockets had reached the beaches. The other two teams were still on the retreat.
"Well done, Rockets! Two wins in a row!" said Chris. "Though I wish you'd taken it easy on those bots…"
Sherb was falling. He had tackled one of the robots into a cliff, and his free fall seemed to slow down as his own life flashed before his eyes and he realized there was a very big chance he would die. He reflected on his journey on Total Drama and realized what it had awoken in him. Something that frightened him to realize.
Sherb: Man, what the heck was I doing?!
THUD.
Eleven campers were gathered at the ceremony as Chris doled out awards for safe campers. Almond, to no one's surprise, had won the challenge, making him the first to reach two wins this season.
Almond: All in a day's work
Leslie: Almond is shaping to be a force in this competition. I only hope they'll give his ass the professional edit…
There was no vote for elimination as Sherb was being Medevacated out of the competition.
"Bye, Sherb! You really let loose in this competition!" said Raze, waving.
Aah, being sent home AGAIN. I'm fine. I've proven myself and what I'm capable of. I've released enough energy for me to afford laying back and staying in bed for… oh, the next six months says the doctor. Ha, at least I beat Raymond's placement last season! Bye! Remember to get eight hours of sleep a day, bye!
