It didn't feel that long until it was time for the next season of Total Drama and Lincoln and all but Ezekiel were on the bus to take them to the location of the new season. Lincoln was looking at a message talking about how the studio got into contact with his school back in Royal Woods and he would have the chance to make up for what he missed while on the show. "Going to be weird going back to school when this is all over; huh everyone? I left practically just a guy but I will be returning a celebrity." Lincoln told everyone while sitting in the middle of Dawn and Gwen.
"Going to be weird yeah..." DJ nodded.
"I was a superstar in school anyway!" Lightning bragged and others rolled their eyes.
"It is going to be a different experience but I will get to it as long as I have regular contact long distance with my Lincoln." Dawn smiled snuggling into Lincoln's arm making him blush.
"I can expect people want to cash in on my fame but basically what Dawn said; you can count ditto on me." Gwen nodded taking Lincoln's other arm and giggled at Lincoln's arm.
"I an expect the same when I go home but I think the only one who might not have to worry about that is Ezekiel as he is homeschooled." Zoey said thinking of Ezekiel who was giving different transport to the location.
"Well I was the student body president and pretty well known already; I hope to go home the Season 2 winner!" Courtney said as she was stroking Brittney on her lap; they all expected her to be competitive again so this was no shock. "I just thought of something; what you do with your money Lincoln?" Courtney decided to ask as Lincoln faced her way.
"Managed to put it into my bank account back home; put into US before depositing it. I think Ezekiel had one set up to put his prize money in." Lincoln explained as they took this in; Lincoln didn't want the chance of anything happening to the money he got so he made sure to put it secure.
"All safe for him until he gets home and blows it all. I plan to be more responsible with the million that I will win." Courtney replied and they got her point about Ezekiel not being responsible.
"So anyone wonder about what is in store for the next season?" Zoey asked and this got frowns.
"I am dreading even thinking about it and I just wonder what weirdos they got to audition for this next season." Gwen muttered and they shivered remembering what they went through the last season.
"Well not in the nature so it will be a downside for me..." Dawn muttered with a sigh only for Lincoln to pull her close. "Well as long as I am with you then it will not be so bad..." Dawn continued on as Lincoln and Gwen smiled and they felt the bus stop.
They left with their bags to greet Chris with his arm in a cast; still feeling the aftermath of being attacked by sharks while in the water but he still had his smile. "Here comes our returning Island cast members: lover boy nerd Lincoln, hippie animal lover Dawn, frowning goth Gwen, over competitive CIT Courtney, giant nice guy DJ, ex-commando hipster Zoey and star athlete Lightning!" Chris introduced them as they came over and saw that they were in front of an abandoned studio lot. "Welcome to Total Drama Action and we have one more Season 1 cast member to introduce... The unexpected underdog homeschooled Champion... EZEKIEL!" Chris then said.
Then they held their ears as booming from nearby speakers was I'm So Humble by the Lonely Island and then a limo pulled up and out came Ezekiel wearing sunglasses, a gold chain with his name and a fancy jacket. "Yo-yo-yo my peeps! The Zeke man is in the house and here to kick butt again and chew chocolate and I am all out of butt... Wait..." Ezekiel said as they took this in.
"Glad to see that the fame hasn't gotten to his head..." Gwen muttered sarcastically with her arms folded.
"Take a good look at who won everyone..." Courtney muttered shaking her head as Lincoln went up to him with a smile and they had a high five.
"Kind of dig the look Ezekiel and the song... I really liked the movie Popstar." Lincoln told him.
"I am not so much a superstar that I won't forget my friends!" Ezekiel said as he joined everyone along with Lincoln as they then began laughing while taking amusement of Ezekiel's new look and attitude.
"Now here are the rides with the 2nd half of this season's cast!" Chris said as 8 taxis arrived.
Out from one of them was Topher looking excited and he got to Chris; "Chris man! I am so stoked and excited to be here with you; I have been following your work and career ever since I could remember and your work on the show... I have been so inspired and I even named my new cat after Chef!" Topher excitedly embraced him only for Chris to push him off.
"Get off... Ow! Watch the cast Topher; the doctors said I need another week to take it easy..." Chris complained as Topher then joined the others.
"So we got a teacher's pet for the host..." Gwen whispered and they giggled.
"Here comes Bridgette!" Chris then introduced the next one and out came Bridgette smiling and waving to everyone and Ezekiel's eyes were awestruck but he put on a confident pose.
"I can't believe that I am here and meeting all of you... Super big fan of Island and being here meeting all of you cool people... I hope we can be friends!" Bridgette said going to the group with a smile and putting up a high five motion and everyone joined in.
"I hope so too Bridgette; I remember going into the last season and hoping to make friends and I succeeded. More the merrier." Zoey smiled as Dawn came up to Zoey.
"How close you are to your mother and how she helped you develop your love of surfing and how close you are to the sea life while surfing; I am glad to have another vegetarian on the show." Dawn greeted her and Bridgette was in awe as the others looked on amused.
"To experience Dawn's aura reading..." Bridgette muttered excitedly. "Chris sorry but... The hotel didn't exactly have a lot of free stuff so can I ask if there is any breakfast..." Bridgette asked as the others sighed shaking their heads.
"You have a lot to learn; you are better off just not eating than waiting for whatever Chef cooks up..." Gwen muttered on for a certain robot familiar to Lincoln come up to everyone with plates of sandwiches and they took as Lincoln blinked.
"Sid! you were warned to keep your robot under control!" warned Chris as Chef came to take it away and then from a taxi was Sid as Lincoln was open mouthed.
"You better not harm Breakfast Bot..." Sid complained but then faced Lincoln and waved to him. "Hey Lincoln; guess who is joining you in this new season? I was so into watching the show when they put in auditions for this season's US spot then I couldn't help but put in an audition and 2nd times the charm this time!" Sid greeted Lincoln.
"You know this girl?" Lightning asked Lincoln and he nodded.
"Sid is the other best friend of Ronnie Anne if you remember me bringing her up; nice to have someone familiar join the show Sid." Lincoln explained and smiled to Sid and she smiled back.
"Well she better beware of the dream team of us and our unshakable bond!" Ezekiel bragged making a confident pose as the others just stared at but Bridgette giggled at.
"Somehow he seems lamer and weirder in person..." Sid muttered and then faced Lincoln. "I was weirded out to see that you actually befriended him and to everyone... You lost to him?" Sid brought up and they all sighed.
"Believe me Sid; I don't understand how he won either... Though if I wasn't unfairly voted out then I bet I would have won..." Courtney muttered and shot a glare to a nervous DJ.
"Wow... Courtney is a little scarier in person..." Bridgette whispered.
"Next up is Brady!" Chris said and everyone watched as Brady came smiling to everyone and Sid's jaw was wide open.
"Glad to have the time to be here from my modelling to my rescue activities and I want to dedicate my performance in this show to my beloved girlfriend Beth!" Brady said flashing a smile and Sid looked disappointed when he mentioned a girlfriend.
"Did they intentionally pick someone to replace Justin?" Lincoln questioned and the others shrugged their shoulders as it was a good point as Brady joined everyone.
"Now Leonard." Chris said as Leon came out of a taxi in his robe and everyone's eyes widened at him.
"Greetings fellow competitors as I have come here on my chariot and I am determined to use my experience in quests and my book filled of magic spells to win this tournament!" Leonard greeted as he joined everyone.
"Wow. A weirdo LARPer; just what this show needed..." muttered Gwen shaking her head and Lincoln looked weirded out as well.
"Now here comes Max!" Chris said as Max came out of his taxi and then roared out a maniacal laughter and came over.
"Today I conquer this show and soon the world using the million dollar prize money!" Ma screamed out as they sighed.
"An evil villain wannabe..." muttered Courtney.
"Come on... Ezekiel turned out to be better than first glance..." Zoey pointed out to reassure them as Lincoln was wondering if he was anything like Lisa.
"Now Mary Kate!" Chris said as said girl came out.
"Thanks Chris but it's MK and I want to let everyone know that I am here to win!" MJ said going to join everyone.
"You are welcome to try; MK is it?" Courtney replied with hetr arms folded looking confident but MK smirked at her.
"Thanks Ms CIT." MK retorted as the last taxi opened up to reveal an obtuse woman in a uniform.
"Here comes MacArthur; the final new contestant's parole officer." Chris said as their eyes widened.
"Parole officer..." the group whispered in fear and MacArthur dragged out Lauren smiling as he was in handcuffs and MacArthur then uncuffed her.
"Here you go Lauren; until this stupid show ends you will be Chris's problem now! I aim to enjoy this new vacation and spend some time with my gal pal Sanders!" MacArthur said as Lauren went to the group and gave a terrifying smile.
"I am so glad to be here and I can't wait to make friends and hear all of them scream!" Lauren said as they gulped but Dawn came up to shake her hands with asmile and Lauren took it it but Dawn gasped out loud and came running to Lincoln as he held her.
"Dawn... Are you alright.." Lincoln asked concerned as Dawn looked terrified.
"Her aura... It was the most terrifying thing I have ever seen..." Dawn almost cried out as they took this in.
"Is it too late to back out?" Bridgette muttered and Chris laughed as he nodded.
"Welcome to Total Drama Action! First things first is getting a tour of the location for the season by the last of our interns who are still in good shape. Sammy if you will..." Chris said as soon came a cart driven by a blonde teenage girl in a cheerleader's uniform with a jacket as everyone came in.
The wild west set was shown as the cart was driving past; "welcome 16 contestants to the show as you will be competing at this abandoned film lot for the next 6 weeks. You will be competing in challenges themed after a movie genre and some rewards will be up for grabs!" Sammy explained as they took this in and became excited especially Lincoln.
"I love watching movies and especially if I can expect less insect bites..." Lincoln cheered.
"Like last season you will be split into 2 teams and each losing team will have to vote off a member and this will go on until the merger at halfway. Last one in the game will be going home with a million dollars." Sammy said as they became excited at the reminder of the prize.
"Reminder who won the last million! Ezekiel bragged and most rolled their eyes but Bridgette looked amused.
"This time the eliminated losers will take the Walk of Shame to the Lame-O-Sine." Sammy said as they passed the red carpet with the Walk of Shame and the Lame-O-Sine.
"Vanzilla looks to be in much better shape than that..." Lincoln muttered as they coughed at the smoke that the Lame-O-Sine was putting off..
"Instead of the outhouse; the confessionals will be held in the make up confessional!" Sammy explained as they passed the make up confessional.
"You mean that I cam put down my thoughts without dealing with those pesky flies? I am going to like this season better..." Courtney grinned in the confessional.
"I am in the confessional; not much for make up but this is going to be fun! I was a big fan of the first season!" Bridgette smiled.
"On the left is the tent catered by Chef..." Sammy explained as they came across the tent and there was groans from the original season cast as they watched Chef chase a racoon out of the tent and this scared Brittney causing Courtney to hold her closer.
"Trust us newbies; the food is much worst than it looked on TV..." Gwen warned the new cast as they blinked.
"Wish I can get Breakfast Bot back..." muttered Sid.
Then they came across the award ceremony area; "This is where the award ceremony area where the losing team will all but one get a Gilded Chris Award!" Sammy explained.
"The Gilded Chris? What a narcissist!" laughed Gwen in the confessional. "Don't get me wrong; I still want one." Gwen finished.
"I always wondered what it would like to win a trophy award..." Lincoln muttered in the confessional.
Sammy then drove them to a set with lots of buildings; "Here comes your first challenge contestants... The monster movie!" Chris laughed as he was there to greet them.
