"What do you mean you don't know if you're okay? Does your stomach hurt? Do you feel like you're gonna throw up?" Jasmine asked.
"No just... me and Courtney have a past." Gwen said.
"That girl who was on the bike? That's Courtney?" She asked.
"Yes. We have a past when it comes to Duncan. You know the guy with the green Mohawk. Anyways, me and Courtney were good friends at the start of World Tour. She broke up with Duncan, then me and Duncan kissed, and Courtney got mad that I kissed Duncan even though that they were broken up at the time."
"You and him dated?"
"Yes for almost an entire season. But he kept talking non-stop about Courtney that I just said I couldn't take it anymore so I dumped him."
"Really? That doesn't sound like the smoothest path to travel on." Jasmine said.
"Yeah..."
"Are you interested in anybody on the island right now?"
"Well, on the very first season, I was interested in this boy named Trent. He was so kind and caring; he still is."
"You like him don't you?" Jasmine asked.
"Yeah. I do. He makes me feel good inside." Gwen blushed. "He makes me feel like the only girl in the world." She said softer.
"My Shawn makes me feel like that too."
"Who is he?" Gwen asked.
"The guy with the shaggy green hat and the orange vest. He's terrified of zombies."
"Oh."
"I remember the time when Shawn and I shared our very first kiss. It was the same day that Scarlett was going to blow up the island."
"That season wasn't too normal, was it?"
"No, not at all."
"Then again," Gwen started. "If Shawn saw Ezekiel face to face, it wouldn't be so pleasant."
"5 minutes left." D.J. said.
"Hey D.J., can Gwen and I go look at the junk pile as long as we don't touch anything?"
"Why not. I guess it's not considered cheating. I'll come with."
"To watch us?" Gwen asked with a laugh.
"No, actually, I couldn't find my good frying pan. I wonder if Chef Hatchet put it in the junk pile."
"Lightning, stop going so fast!" Cameron yelled.
"Why? When you go fast, you go all the way! Sha Lightning does what he wants to!"
"Please!"
Lightning looked back at Cameron. "No! I'm not slowing down."
"At least watch out for where you're going cuz you're going to RUN INTO THAT ROCK!"
"Sha what?" He turned right around and saw the rock.
"I didn't want to die like this!" Cameron yelled as held on to Lightning's shoulders and closed his eyes.
Lightning quickly swerved out of the way of the rock then turned around. "I told you! I got this under control." He said still peddling.
Cameron looked up and sighed. "Pond."
"What?" Lightning asked. Then he looked at the pond in-front of them as they flung in the air.
"I MISS BEING A BUBBLE BOY!" He yelled as he splashed into the water.
They landed in the end of the shallow part. There was sticky brown muck in the water and they had just landed in it.
"Lightning, I am stuck in the muck!" Cameron said.
"So what?" I am too!" Lightning said.
Cameron looked over to where they had come from."The bike is sinking!" He yelled
"Well grab it then!"
"What part of STUCK, DON'T YOU GET!" Cameron yelled.
"I'll get it then!"
"You're stuck too Lightning!"
Lightning started jumping in-place. Then he started wiggling his feet around.
"Lightning you're splashing me!" Cameron yelled.
"Yes, but I'm... I'm... I'm still stuck!" He said giving up hope.
"We may never get out of here!" Cameron yelled.
"Hi Jo!" Dawn said.
"What do you want?"
"I was reading your aura and I would like to tell you something personal!"
"Is it anything good?"
"Why yes! I'll tell you truths about your good and hard times from past and what really happened."
"Fine, let's here it!"
"Five dollars please."
"WHAT?! I'm not giving you money."
"Okay then, I guess you'd wouldn't like to know what really happened to your dog, Lisa."
Jo turned around. "Lisa? Okay, Okay! Here's the five bucks! Tell me everything."
"Lisa didn't run..."
"Ugh, I can't believe people would actually listen to her." Blaineley said from a distance. "I bet you she's a fake!"
"Like you?" Geoff teased.
"Get bit! But really, those people just like attention."
"Blaineley she's actually a very good aura reader! She knew I was an only child on the first day of Total Drama Revenge of the Island. It was very creepy because I hadn't told anyone about it." Zoey said.
"Whatever! I still don't believe it."
"Maybe you could try talking with her. Quiz her about your past. " Zoey recommended.
"Will you leave me alone if I do?"
"Yes!" Zoey and Geoff both said.
"Fine I'll talk to her later."
"... When you reach age 37, something very special will happen. But because I don't want to jinx it, I'll just tell you to live your life" Dawn said faintly from away.
Jo and Dawn both stood up and shook hands.
"Thanks Dawn."
"You're welcome! Please talk to me anytime."
Blaineley chuckled. "Fake!"
"Courtney, you know I have a girlfriend right?" Noah asked her as she laid on his back.
"I know, I'm just so tired." She said.
"Please get off I don't need Emma seeing this."
"Sure thing." Courtney responded as she got off of Noah's back.
Courtney Confessional:
"I was up all night thinking about this Duncan-Scott thing." *yawns* "I'm so happy Noah is biking. My legs wouldn't be able to take it."
"Can I get a water break?" Noah asked.
"Sure Sure, whatever. I'll be taking a nap."
Noah rode faster and faster, until they reached a pond.
"Hey Courtney," Noah said.
She opened her eyes.
*yawn* "What?"
"I don't think the water is fresh but," He pointed to Lightning and Cameron who were in the pond.
"Hey Courtney help!" Cameron yelled.
She woke up fully.
"No time! Got to go!" She yelled.
Noah started peddling.
"If you need a drink, Noah. Drink your spit okay!"
*Noah growled*
Noah Confessional:
"I liked it better when she was asleep."
"Good news girls, You can start in 4...3...2...1... Go!" Chef D.J yelled.
"Gwen pass me that twine!" Jasmine yelled.
Gwen tossed the twine to her then grabbed 4 matching wheels that they spotted earlier. She set them in the grass then ran back to the pile.
"While I grab these two shopping carts, I need you to put the new wheels on the carts and put the old cushions in them." Jasmine told her.
"Okay, I have one cushion so far." Gwen said as she threw the cushion to the wheels.
Jasmine pushed the carts over to the wheels as Gwen threw over the last cushion.
"Let me get those kayak paddles we saw earlier. We can use them to move the carts." Jasmine said as they traded places.
Gwen switched the wheels on the carts and and lifted them back up.
Jasmine came back with the 2 paddles and set them by the cart. She picked up the twine and tied them together as Gwen put each cushion in each cart.
"All done!" Gwen said.
"Nice, it's like a train." Jasmine said.
D.J. walked to the with a grin on his face. "This is very impressive!"
"Thanks, did you find what you were looking for?" Jasmine asked.
"Sure did! I guess Mr. Hatchet did throw it away."
Gwen chuckled. "Could you please help me into the cart?" She asked him.
"Sure." He said as he helped her and Jasmine. He handed them their paddles. "Good luck!"
"Thanks!" Gwen said as they stated moving.
"This is awesome!" Jasmine yelled while their speed progressed.
"So," Carrie began, "How's the Giggling goats team?"
"It's going well, I guess." Devin said.
"Are you okay?"
"I just miss you that's all."
"I miss you too, but try to focus on the game. Because we can always talk when a challenge isn't going on."
"You're right."
"I'm always right!" She said with a giggle.
Devin sighed but smiled.
"Listen, just try to make new buddies. Like Kitty, stick with her for a while then branch off to more of your team."
"Okay, I just hope we both make it to the merge together."
Carrie smiled then walked closer. "I hope we get to the finale together." She kissed him on the lips. "Later."
"Where are you going?"
"I'm letting you have a chance to branch out. Go talk to Zoey, I've heard she's friendly."
"Okay! Catch you later?"
"Yeah! After the challenge, meet me on the beach! K?"
"Of course!"
Devin Confessional:
"I LOVE HER!"
Carrie Confessional:
"I know he loves me!"
"Great! Just Great!" Cameron yelled. "We are stuck in this very sticky muck, we have no way out, and I'm starting to get a cramp in my thigh."
"Stop worrying! We'll eventually get out of here!"
"Eventually is not enough! Courtney and Noah have already passed us and who knows how far behind the Crying Catfish are!"
"Take off your shoes!" Lightning yelled.
"Why!"
"The shoes are stuck! If you escape from your shoes we can get shaoutta here!"
"We could get foot fungus!"
"We're taking chances today!" Lightning plugged his nose with one hand and bent over to untie his shoes. His face was in the water and he had to close his eyes.
Cameron watched him struggle until Lightning had gotten out.
"I'm outta here!" Lightning yelled.
"Wait! We're a team! We have to go together!"
"No we don't! I have to track down Blaineley!"
"WITH WHAT BIKE?" Cameron yelled.
"I'll run!"
"You can't leave!"
"Why not?"
"Because if we lose this challenge because of you, I can guarantee you that you'll be going home second-to-last for a SECOND time!" Cameron yelled.
"Come get me!" Lightning yelled as he ran around the pond. Cameron was very mad and tried swimming to him. He eventually got out and onto the grass. He looked around as walked Lightning towards him smiling.
"Why'd you decide to run!?" Cameron asked.
"Are you out of the water?" Lightning asked.
Cameron looked down; noticing for the first time that he wasn't stuck anymore. "How...What...?"
"Lightning can't tell you all of his sha-secrets!"
"Let's grab the stuff from the mud and maybe rebuild the bike." Cameron suggested.
"Or, get on my back." Lightning said. "Because I'm so athletic, I can carry you to the finish."
"But we need a BIKE!" Cameron said.
"Do not worry Cameron, I can deal with it! Besides, what would they even do as punishment?"
"Perhaps a time penalty?!"
"Why does that sound so familiar?" Lightning asked.
"Because that's what the Crying Catfish got at the START of the challenge!" Cameron said. "How about we make a new bike?"
"Wait, wanna play dirty?" Lightning asked.
"How?" Cameron asked.
"I don't know, I figured you had an idea."
"Well, the Crying Catfish haven't passed through yet!" Cameron started.
"I'm listening."
"What if we attack them as they come through and hopefully STEAL the bike they've made. Then they will be left behind and we'll at lease come in second!"
"I say let's start making some sha-ammo!" Lightning yelled.
Jasmine and Gwen had a great system going. Every 10 seconds they'd switch the sides they were paddling on because Jasmine was stronger than Gwen.
"So Gwen, I wanted to talk to you about Heather."
"What about her?"
"I used to get bullied too, back in Australia."
"Heather doesn't bully me!"
"You had a breakdown yesterday!"
"I know, even after 5 years she still gets to me!"
"Trust me, I know about bullies, back in grade school everyone called me R.W.J."
"What did that mean?"
"Red Wood Jasmine. Because I was so tall. People still call me that on social media. Some people even made their own yearbook quotes about me."
"Really?"
"No, I'm just trying to make you feel a little better. But the nickname part and the social media part were true. Plus they still hurt to this day. I got a cat for emotional support. But she scratches really hard. Like, REALLY REALLY..."
"Jasmine, did you want to work with me to talk about Heather?"
"I just wanted to tell you that you're not the only one."
"I know I'm not the only one, Heather manipulates EVERYONE! Except for D.J.!"
"Do you wish to be like him?"
"A little, he's smart, funny, respected! All I am to people is Weird Goth Girl and Boyfriend Stealer. It just sucks you know?"
"I could imagine. People like her are the absolute worst!"
"True, but I'm pretty sure she just took her anger out on me because of Alejandro"
"What about him?" Jasmine asked.
"You haven't heard? So, Heather and Alejandro got in this HUGE fight because she caught him cheating on her. So as revenge, she messed up his car very badly then had it dumped with the help of her dad. Yesterday is the very first day Heather has seen him since the incident!"
"Wow, that explains why there was so much hatred in her. But why would she dump it on you?"
"I'm the first chance she got, I'm guessing. Which makes it hurt more because it confuses me."
"Yeah that really does suck."
"So are we friends now?"
"If you want to be. You're nice and easy to talk to."
"Well I guess we're friends now!" Gwen said.
"NOW!" Lightning yelled as he used his football skills to tackle their bike. He came out of nowhere, sending Gwen and Jasmine tumbling out of the carts.
"Cameron, get in!" Lightning yelled as he pulled the cart back up.
Cameron rushed to the bike and grabbed the paddles. He fixed his and Lightning cushions as Lightning climbed in behind him. Cameron handed him a paddle.
"Use the paddle on the ground like you would while rowing!" Cameron yelled as they took off away.
"CAMERON!?" Gwen yelled as she stood up. She was limping and had many bruises on her arms.
"Gwen, I'm so sorry! Please forgive me!" Cameron yelled as his voice faded.
Cameron Confessional:
"I can't believe I did that to Gwen and Jasmine. I'm supposed to be nice not strategic! Besides, being nice IS my strategy!"
Gwen Confessional:
"Why would Cameron do that to me? Can I even trust him now? Should I even trust my new friendship with Jasmine?" Should I?"
"We really can't get a break today!" Jasmine said brushing her legs off.
"I know!" Gwen said in a bit of pain.
"Are you okay?" Jasmine asked.
"No, my leg really hurts."
Jasmine looked at her leg and got in front of her.
"What are you doing?"
Jasmine turned around to where her back faced Gwen and knelt down.
"Want a piggy-back ride?"
"Really? You'd let me do that?"
"Yeah, I'll run us to victory!"
"Okay," Gwen said as she put her arms around Jasmine's neck. "Am I choking you?"
"No, but put your legs up! Don't worry, I'll support them."
Gwen lifted her left leg with ease but her right leg was still in pain.
"Does It feel okay?"' Jasmine asked.
"It hurts a bit but let's not hold back."
"Okay, duck your head!" Jasmine yelled as she started running.
Gwen Confessional:
"Yeah, I think I can trust this friendship."
Jo, Sky, and Sugar were talking.
"Where is our team?" Jo asked impatiently.
"Don't ask me!" Sugar said. "I'm more focused on what Ella is up too! I miss her so much!"
"Sugar, please don't cry. You know, for like the 7th time TODAY!" Jo said.
Sugar Confessional:
"I just don't understand why they'd boot Ella off of their team! It just doesn't make any sense and I already miss my little mouse! Why do bad things happen to the pretty ones?" *Starts Crying* "Why E-E-Ella? Why?"
"I can't hold it..." Sugar said as she ran away. "Excuse me for a second!" She yelled with a fade.
"Tyler look, It's my best buddy Noah!" Owen yelled.
"Noah?" Dawn asked. "That means they're here."
"We know!" Jo said as she turned around.
"Watch out!" Courtney said as Noah parked right next to Chris.
"And the Running Roosters are the first to arrive!" Chris declared.
"Okay, what's our animal?" Sky asked.
"You must find and catch a rabbit!" Chris said.
Courtney turned around and grabbed Jo's shoulders.
"You tripped on a rabbit hole this morning! Do you remember your jogging route?" She asked shaking her.
Jo smacked her hands, making her let go. "Yes I remember my route," Jo said. "I'm going to use it everyday."
"Okay, let's go!"
"Hold on a second," Chris said. "Because you helped in the first part of the challenge, Courtney, you can't in the second. But you can take the bike Noah and Courtney made." He said switching to talk to Jo.
"Come here Dawn!" Jo said.
Jo Confessional:
"I picked Dawn for a special reason. I'm pretty sure she's great with animals. Making this a breeze for us to win."
"Yes Jo?" Dawn said as she walked up to her.
"You are coming with me to attract a Rabbit!"
"Oh, That should be very simple! A decent rabbit call can do the trick!" Dawn said.
"We were actually going to head to a rabbit hole we found earlier!"
"Please Jo, that's nonsense!" She insisted. "Mike, didn't your old personality, Manitoba have a great rabbit call?"
"Yeah,"
"You can still do it, right?"
"Well, I do have all the abilities my old personalities had so I might be able to do it." Mike said.
"Perfect!, please try it."
"Okay, here it goes..."
The other teams watched in disbelief as Mike did a PERFECT call of a rabbit in distress.
"I think it's working!" Dawn whispered to Jo.
Jo just looked and thought to herself.
Jo Confessional:
"I feel like Dawn and Mike are way too strong! Dawn has a great mind and Mike has fantastic abilities from his old personalities. It's a good thing they're on this team but we need to get them out of here before they become to hard to defeat."
A mother rabbit hopped out of the bushes, listening to Mike's call.
"I got it!" Owen whispered as he sneaked behind the rabbit. He instantly pounced on the rabbit with a big CRUNCH sound.
"OWEN! You killed it!" Courtney yelled.
"Get off of the rabbit!" Dawn said.
He got off of the rabbit as everyone had the sad sight of it twitching.
"AWESOME!" Izzy said.
"OWEN, GRAB THE RABBIT AND TAKE IT TO CHRIS!" Jo yelled.
He ran over to Chris with the rabbit cradled in his arms.
"Does that count?" Scott asked with a small laugh.
"...YES! Actually it does! The Running Roosters win today's challenge!" Chris declared.
Owen took the rabbit and handed it off to Bridgette. "Here you go."
Bridgette took the rabbit and her jaw dropped more.
"Wha..." Bridgette said just staring at it.
Bridgette Confessional:
"You know the ending of Titanic? This was 10 times worse!"
Owen Confessional:
"The reasoning for me giving Bridgette the Rabbit was because I knew she was good with animals. Perhaps she could've fixed it's twitchy body.
Shawn Confessional:
"I know I don't talk much yet but the way that Izzy was excited about death makes me wonder if she was a zombie! SCARY!"
"Gwen and Jasmine made a great bike!" Cameron said. "Yet I still feel bad for stealing it!"
"You don't play dirty right if you feel bad afterwards!" Lightning said.
"I feel like a villain though!"
"You're not a villain! Look at yourself as a strategic Hero! You used a strategy to get us back on our feet and to knock others down isn't that what you wanted?
"No! Well... perhaps it did feel good."
Lightning Confessional:
"Step one of making Cameron a sha-villian complete! I made him play dirty and feel good afterwards! Next step, make him trust me! One of the hardest steps!"
"So, do you have any sha-secrets you wanna tell?" Lightning asked.
"Why would I tell my secrets if they're secrets?" Cameron asked.
"IDK, do you want any girl advice?"
"Well, it is about a girl. But she's already with someone on our team."
"Is the girl you're talking about on this sha-team?"
"No."
Lightning Confessional:
"It's either Carrie or Bridgette! The guys on this team are me, Cameron, Geoff, Devin, and Cody! I have a girlfriend who's back at home, Cody is probably with Sierra I believe, Geoff is with Bridgette, and Carrie is with Devin. I just SHA-SOLVED it!"
End Confessional:
"So why not tell me?"
"Cause you're a villain!"
"Remember when you backstabbed Jo? Or how 10 minutes ago you stole two ladies' hard work?"
Cameron laughed. "Yeah, that was a little fun!"
"Is it Carrie?"
"No, It's not Carrie! And if you're just gonna guess then you're never gonna find out."
Lightning Confessional:
"It's Bridgette!"
"Come on, you can trust me! I'll even tell you my sha-crush!"
"Tell me yours first!"
"I like uhmm... Kitty!" Lightning said.
"You like... Kitty?"
"Yes she has lovely uhmm... PIGTAILS! Now tell me yours!"
"I'm not telling you! Did you really think that'll work?"
"It's Bridgette!"
Cameron blushed in a nervous way. "No... well YES! But you can't tell anybody! I trust you!"
Lightning Confessional:
"Sha-done and done! Play dirty+ trust= 2 steps close to villain!"
"Your secret is safe with me!" Lightning declared. "Now turn left!"
"Okay!" Cameron said as he turned. "Hey look, it's Gwen and Jasmine!" Cameron said.
"Gwen and Jasmine? We just went in a sha-circle!"
"Jasmine is really fast!" Cameron said.
"Gwen," Jasmine started as she noticed Cameron and Lightning. "Look who's on our tails!"
Gwen turned her head and saw Cameron and Lightning. "Stop Jasmine!" Gwen said.
"Why?"
"Just do it! I have a plan."
Jasmine came to a halting stop.
"Go into the middle of those two rocks! They'll have to swerve and CRASH!"
"On it!"
Jasmine ran to the rocks and stood in the middle.
"Lightning, we have no choice but to turn!" Cameron said.
"Keep going!" Lighting yelled.
"Lightning we're going to hit them!"
"KEEP GOING FASTER!"
"Okay!" Cameron said oddly confident.
"Jasmine, they're not moving!" Gwen said.
"Just wait! They will eventually!"
"Jasmine! They're going faster! They want to hit us!"
"Gwen calm down!"
"LIGHTNING WE'RE GOING TO HIT THEM! THEY WON'T MOVE!" Cameron yelled.
"SHUT UP AND SHA-KEEP GOING!"
"Did you hear that Gwen, they really want to hit us!" Jasmine said.
" I KNOW THIS!" Gwen panicked
"Okay, one second!" Jasmine said as she sat Gwen on a rock.
"Where are you going?"
Jasmine ran off and grabbed another huge rock.
"What is she doing?" Cameron asked as they got much closer.
Jasmine rolled the new rock to where her and Gwen were standing.
"Let's beat them at their own game!" She said as she pulled Gwen out of the way with her.
"Lightning, we're going to crash again!" Cameron yelled as he noticed the 3rd rock in the way.
"Maybe we can jump it!"
"Lightning are you crazy?" Cameron yelled. In panic Cameron stopped paddling. Lightning though, ignored Cameron and decided to keep going. By this time, they were only ten feet away.
"Lightning Stop!" Cameron yelled.
!CRASH!
"I MISS BEING A BUBBLE BOY!" Cameron yelled as he was flung into the bushes.
"Gwen, how is your leg?" Jasmine asked.
"It's fine now!"
"Good, cause it's time to run!" She said as she jumped over the rock. Gwen followed and soon after, they were ahead of Lightning and Cameron again.
"Cameron, get up! It's time to go!" Lightning yelled brushing the sticks, leaves, and a bird's egg off of his football jersey. The egg just smothered.
"Could you help me please?"
Lightning rolled his eyes but grabbed Cameron's hand that was sticking out of the bush. He pulled him up and retrieved his glasses from the bushes.
"Good thing they aren't broken!" Cameron said as he put them back on. "They are a bit scratched though!"
"Who cares!?" Lightning yelled. "LET'S GO!"
Cameron proceeded as Lightning told him to do and ran. Lucky for them, Jasmine and Gwen were still in view. Lucky for Jasmine and Gwen though, Chris was in view.
Heather noticed them first. "Haha! Our team is here before yours suckers!" She taunted at Cameron and Lightning.
"Where is your bike!" Chris yelled.
"It crash... twice!" Jasmine answered.
"Do Cameron and Lightning have a bike?" Chris asked
"No!" Gwen said a bit impatient
"Then there is no point in penalty! It's a race to second now and you need to bring me a squirrel!"
"Okay!" Emma said as she started to instruct everyone. "Let's all go separate ways and if we find the animal, we bring it to Chris! Gwen and Jasmine just sit down and chill!"
As everyone left, Cameron and Lightning showed up. Everyone on their team huddled together as they arrived to Chris.
"It's a race for second place as the Running Roosters have already won first! You need to find a bird!"
Cameron looked a Lightning's jersey. "How about a smashed bird egg?"
"I'll accept it if you can find it."
"Lightning, take off your shirt!" Cameron ordered. Lightning looked down and realized Cameron's idea. He look of his shirt and showed Chris the dead egg yolk and the piece of shell.
"Well, this was an interesting way to come in Second! CONGRATULATIONS!"
Chris got on the loud speakers as the Giggling Goats continued to cheer. "The Crying Catfish may stop looking because the Giggling Goats just won second place! I'll see you at elimination tonight!"
"Nice game!" Cameron complimented towards Jasmine and Gwen.
"Get LOST!" Gwen yelled walking away.
