Author's Notes
Welcome back. Here your beloved Fantasy Lord 77 is back with the next chapter. A good way to open the last month of this peculiar year.
But before we begin, let's answer the reviews from the previous chapter.
Guest 1138: Interesting predictions on all the plots so far.
ZNBT: To be honest, I didn't think you would actually find it, considering how extensive Family Guy is.
Candela Monsoon: Yeah, that was a mistake on my part. At the very beginning of the story I wanted Karen to be the mole, but as the chapters progressed my ideas changed, and now the identity of the mole is unknown again. As I mentioned before, I write this story on the fly, and my ideas often change.
Now, let's go to the chapter.
Total Drama: Enchanted
Chapter 20 - Wreckfest
An intruder had sneaked into the control room of the Spa Hotel late at night and was going through private program files. In those folders were many secrets that no one outside the production team should know, or would be found.
However, that wasn't a problem for a teenage alien shapeshifter, who was going through a specific folder. In that folder was juicy information on one of the main plots added this season.
The mole.
In that folder there was information about the famous mole introduced this season, but there was something that did not fit with what was seen on screen. A certain contestant in a purple dress is supposed to have proclaimed herself this season's mole, but information dictates that a mysterious hooded subject is the real mole.
"Karen is not the mole?"
The intruder couldn't help asking himself in confusion. This generated too many questions in the head. Is she really not the mole? Who is this hooded guy? Where did she get her gadgets for her traps? Does that mean there are two moles? What is the meaning of all this?
He had planned to go out solely to search for a high-tech gadget to aid his plans, but he just found something much more interesting, something humans call "juicy and intriguing".
PUM!
The intruder receives a severe blow to the head, and before losing consciousness, he manages to recognize the same hooded guy from the files holding the shovel with which he received the blow. A few seconds later, he completely loses consciousness.
"This has gone too far."
The hooded guy commented upon seeing the totally unconscious intruder with his body lying in front of him. Before taking any other action, the lights in the room are turned on. The hooded guy turns to find two men looking at him curiously: Chris and Chef.
"What's going on here?" Chris asked with a raised eyebrow, not giving much thought to the fact that there is a hooded guy with a shovel and the body of a boy on the ground with a bump on his head.
"How did that freak manage to sneak in here?" Chef Hatchet asked, pointing to Tony's unconscious body.
"You ... know that he had returned to the island?" asked the hooded guy with a distorted voice produced by a voice modulator hidden next to his hood.
"Of course I knew" Chris replied as if it were obvious. "Do you take me for a fool?"
The Chef and the hooded guy, even though he can't be seen, grimaced in response, as if they didn't want to respond.
"Don't answer that" Chris continued with a frown at the grimaces. "What are you doing here?"
"I came to prevent this infiltrator from doing something out of place" replied the hooded man, pointing to Tony's unconscious body, before going and retrieving the file he had obtained. "He got too close to the truth."
"Well, you should have been more attentive" Chris shrugs.
"You don't mind that this alien is loose on the island?" the hooded guy asked indignantly.
"Not really" replied the host. "That's what you came here for in the first place. You're supposed to be here to spread chaos, but instead you convinced someone else to do that job for you."
"I've seen the auditions and the resumes, and I saw an opportunity in her" replied the hooded man, shrugging. "But that doesn't matter now. What matters is that we have an infiltrated alien planning to invade our world."
"Relax, we don't have to worry about him. Karen has him on a leash and he won't do anything out of place" Chris explained.
"Karen has it under control? Are you talking about the same Karen who caused a zombie apocalypse?" snorted the hooded guy. "I'm rethinking all of this, Chris. I think we better cancel all of this and avoid bigger problems."
"What nonsense you say! I'm not canceling this at this point!" Chris exclaimed.
"I just think it's better to take precautions…" the boy was going to speak, but Chris silences him.
"Looks like you've forgotten your role in this show, buddy" Chris pointed an accusing finger at him. "You are here so that your presence causes conflict and mistrust among the contestants and to keep things under control. You gave those things to Karen, YOU gave her all that freedom for her tricks, and YOU let all that happen because you were unwise."
The hooded guy was silent, taking in everything the host was scolding him for.
"This is your problem, so you solve it" Chris finished.
The hooded guy lets out a loud sigh. "Yes sir"
"Excellent! Now get out of here and keep up the good work" Chris smiled. "I certainly must thank you. None of this would be possible without you."
The hooded guy nods and goes to pick up Tony's body to take it away, but before returning the file to its owner, Chris stops him with a gesture.
"Let him take that file away" Chris said with a mischievous smile. "If Karen finds out about the situation, she is definitely going to freak out."
The hooded guy just huffs and walks out with Tony's body on his shoulders. Once out of sight, Chef turns to Chris.
"He's right on a few points," Chef commented, speaking for the first time in all this time.
"Chef, do you remember the time you complained that I didn't have things under control after the incident with Scarlett?" Chris asked, getting a nod from Chef. "Well, that guy is the solution. He came to keep everything under control, and at the same time he can do some mischief to cause drama. Bringing Karen was his idea, and boy did I do well to accept her to compete."
"But what about the whole invasion thing?" Chef asked, trying to hide his concern.
"There is nothing to fear," Chris explained. "All that is already controlled."
"How can you be so sure?" Chef asked in slight amazement.
"I already told you: I have eyes everywhere."
It was morning on the island. Everyone was doing whatever activity to pass the time. However, you could feel the tension in the air. They all had trouble trusting each other after what happened in the previous episode.
Otis was alone in the dining room. He was tapping a finger on the table, thinking about things. In a little while, Pearl entered, looking determined.
"Otis!" she exclaimed when she saw him. The boy turned his head to look at her. "I have to talk to you".
"Go ahead, I have nothing better to do" he said, crossing his arms.
Pearl sat across from him and stared at him. Otis looked at her, not understanding.
"So…" Otis commented, waiting for her to say something.
Pearl did not reply. She just kept staring at him, as if reading his soul.
"Pearl, you're worrying me. If you've gone dumb, bang on the table. If you've gone crazy, bang twice" Otis told him scathingly.
"I'm not crazy!" she exclaimed suddenly. "It's just… Otis, you know… right?"
"I know lots of things" said Otis with a smile. "What do you mean specifically?"
"As for… Well, you know," Pearl said desperately. "I can not say it…"
"You can signal me, or give hints," Otis commented. "But… if you mean about Karen, well yeah, I know the truth."
"OH, OTIS! IF YOU WERE MY BOYFRIEND I WOULD KISS YOU!" Pearl exclaimed, almost with happy tears in her eyes.
Otis smiles at the reaction. "From the canoe challenge I began to suspect her. Then Diego confirmed it to me."
"She is responsible for getting me kicked out!" Pearl said furiously. "She convinced Nigel to manipulate me and then sabotaged her mini challenge to get rid of her."
"Yes, I imagined that was what happened" Otis commented with a thoughtful face. "She's pretty crafty, no doubt. If my suspicions are correct, she alone has gotten rid of more than half of this cast."
"And now that I'm back, she's ready to kick me off!" Pearl exclaimed. "So Otis, I suggest that we form an alliance. She is losing her most trusted allies, so we will have a small advantage over her."
"Sounds good to me" Otis agreed. "But it's important that she doesn't know anything. Even if she doesn't have reliable allies, she has Hunter around, and he's very dangerous."
"It's true. I'd like to meet the real Karen… and then hit him hard with a vase on his head!"
Otis suddenly shuts Pearl off, motioning for her to be quiet. Pearl looks askance at the door, and finds a figure by the window that was listening to them. When the silhouette leaves, Otis said in a whisper:
"Someone was listening to us"
"Oh my gosh" said Pearl desperately. "I just hope it wasn't her, please…"
Confessional
Lucas - "Karen is evil? But ... she always gives me her desserts after dinner."
The 8 contestants were outside the dining room at Chris's request. He had said that the next challenge will be very tough as usual, so they must be prepared from the beginning. As they waited, there was a deathly silence that filled the air, and the tension was so great it could be cut with a knife.
"What do you think today's challenge will be about?" Ginger asked then, wanting to escape the stifling silence.
"Well, or it will be something devious, humiliating, unoriginal, or all of the above," Felix supposed, while reading from a book.
"It's Chris we're talking about," Karen said. "He always manages to torture us in worse ways."
"Well, it's no use turning our heads now," Raymond cut in. "The best thing is that ..."
"Cofcofmonstercofcof" Lucas cleared his throat.
"Did you say something, Lucas?" asked the skater.
"No, not me, I was just coughing… Cofcoftraitorcofcof."
Just then there were engine noises and skidding, and out of nowhere Chef Hatchet appeared riding his famous motorcycle, skidding on the ground, causing the contestants to be covered by dirt and dust, and performing tricks impossible for a normal human. Along with him came Chris driving his own off-road quad bike.
"Hello contestants! Are you ready for a lot of pain, sweat, tears, and eating dust?!"
"You already know the answer, McLean" Hunter replied without emotion.
"That's the spirit!" Chris exclaimed. "Follow me, everyone, if you can!"
The 8 contestants had managed to catch up with Chris and Chef, who had the nerve to go in their vehicles and make the contestants try to keep up with them. Upon arrival, they were all gasping for air and sweating quite a bit from running.
They all make it to the lake, but to everyone's surprise, it was totally dry. The water seemed to have been extracted, since it was now just a huge, muddy and wet wasteland, littered with junk, wrecked cars, and tires lying around. Next to the lake, there was a huge mountain of vehicle parts, such as engines, tires, steering wheels, among other related things.
"I think I know where this is going…" Otis commented with a hint of emotion.
"Welcome to the challenge I like to call Wreckfest!" Chris announced. "Our wildest, most chaotic, and destructive event yet will be held here: a demolition race!"
Confessional
Otis - "This challenge will be the best! I am a champion in demolition races. I myself built my own vehicle which I named Bulldozer. With that vehicle I have earned respect in the arenas of destruction. Once they see me arrive, they know they're doomed."
"This challenge consists of a famous demolition derby like the ones you see on television. Easy and simple" spoke Chris.
"Stop saying that!" Felix yelled at him.
"And the vehicles?" Pearl asked innocently.
"That's the twist on this challenge" the host smirked. "You must build your own vehicles!"
Some contestants groan in frustration, while others smile in delight. Different models of vehicles emerge from the ground. From left to right: a go-kart, a quad bike, a small plane, a motorcycle, a monster truck, a school bus, a tow truck, and a tractor.
"Didn't you say we should build our own vehicles?" asked Felix.
"Well, you guys won't do exactly that," Chris explained. "That would take too long, and not all of you would be able to build something decent, so instead of building something, you are going to modify a special vehicle."
"A quad bike and a motorcycle?" Karen asked with an arched brow. "That wouldn't last long against a monster truck."
"So pray you get a useful vehicle" smiled the host.
"A plane?" Otis asked, surprised to see a non-ground vehicle as a choice. "What's the use of that?"
"Each vehicle has its own advantage that you will know about once you modify your vehicles" Chris explained, pulling out a garbage bag filled with pieces of wood each with a picture of a vehicle. "This is how we will select the vehicle for each one. As the winner of yesterday's challenge, Raymond goes first."
Raymond gulps and walks over to Chris. He reaches into the bag, and takes out a piece of wood with the vehicle that he will use: the go-kart.
"Next!"
After a minute, everyone had selected their vehicle: Lucas got the quad bike, Pearl with the tow truck, Karen with the school bus, Ginger with the plane, Felix with the tractor, Otis with the monster truck, and Hunter with the motorcycle.
"Everyone already has a vehicle on hand," commented Chris. "Now I will give you 3 hours to modify them however you want with the mountain of parts that you have out there."
They all went to claim their vehicles, and took them along to the mountain of parts.
Confessional
Otis - "And of course I get the monster truck ... Those losers won't know what hit them."
Raymond - "I have experience in automotive, and I have already modified one or another vehicle. I have a chance to win immunity again."
Hunter - "I have my own motorcycle at home. I am an expert in handling it. I can evade and overcome those rats without any problem."
While everyone was modifying their vehicles, some saw an opportunity to strategize.
After modifying her vehicle, Pearl enlists Otis to help her with her own vehicle.
"So… what is the plan?" Pearl then asked.
"What are you talking about?" Otis asked back, while modifying the engines of her vehicle.
"The plan to defeat Karen" replied the blonde. "When are we going to vote for her?"
"It's not a good idea to vote on it now," Otis explained. "We don't have the necessary votes, and no one here holds a grudge against her to even vote for her."
Pearl lets out a defeated sigh. "So what will we do?"
"We must get rid of their allies, Hunter and Ginger," explained the mechanic, as she closed the hood and wiped the sweat from her forehead. "Hunter seeks to take down the threats, and Ginger trusts her blindly. If we get rid of the two, she will be left alone and we can vote for her without the need to prove her evil."
"Ok, ok, I like that plan" Pearl smiled, though a question came to mind. "But… how will we get the votes? And who will we vote for first?"
"Hunter will be our top priority for now, and I think we can get the votes to kick him out. Lucas holds a grudge against him too, and I guess Raymond will play along. Then I can try to convince Felix."
"It's the perfect plan!" exclaimed the blonde, before admiring the modifications of his vehicle.
At a good distance, Hunter had again overheard the conversation between the two and knew he needed to think of his own survival strategy.
He walks over to Karen, observing the girl in the purple dress putting some saws on her wheels, when he noticed his partner next to her.
"Is something offered to you?" she asked without turning to look at him.
"Time to destroy the competition" said the hunter directly. "We have to vote for Otis tonight."
"I agree, but… what will we do if he gets immunity?" Karen asked then. "His vehicle is the deadliest here, and he already has experience in this."
"If he wins, then we will vote for Felix. He is also dangerous."
Confessional
Karen - "I don't see Felix as a real threat. Yes, he's clever, and that rulebook could be a problem, but it doesn't scare me ... It's a shame that no one wants to target Pearl, but hey, kicking Otis works for me for now".
Hunter - "This war against Felix is more personal."
The three hours passed quickly, and everyone has parked their vehicles next to what used to be the lake now turned into a demolition arena. Everyone's vehicles had their own interesting modifications.
Raymond's go-kart had a pair of huge rear wheels, slightly raising the driver's seat, a large engine with green lights that emits smoke on start-up, a small cannon by the door, and everything was painted with fire and skulls.
Lucas's quad bike didn't have a lot of improvements, but it did have a lot of compartments at the rear, with lots of fun surprises.
Pearl's tow truck had window grilles for added strength, and the classic hook was replaced by a spiked ball, perfect for a demolition.
Karen's school bus also had bars on the windows for added strength, had slightly larger wheels, a STOP sign with sharp points to look like a saw, and "death chimneys" for intimidation.
Ginger's plane had sharp blades that could act like a saw, small rockets on the wings for added momentum, and a small compartment at the bottom.
Felix's tractor had a big engine for more power, and he had a dangerous harvester out front to shred anyone in his way.
Otis's monster truck proves to be quite dangerous, with a powerful drill in the front, spikes that protect the gigantic wheels, a powerful engine, some fire-breathing thrusters, and a host of other surprises.
Hunter's motorcycle was modified to be devoid of unnecessary elements, but with a rather striking design, with the headlight in the front in the shape of a dragon, and spiked rims to puncture tires.
Chris whistles in admiration for the vehicles. "These vehicles look very dangerous, and it will surely cause lawsuits if they see minors driving them to kill each other ... but I don't care."
The 8 vehicles were in different areas outside the arena, waiting for Chris' call to start the destruction. The host had obtained a throne to observe, similar to the one used in the gladiator challenge. Some contestants were eager to get started, already starting their engines. The engines roared with excitement, and everyone put their hands on their steering wheels.
"Welcome everyone to our great and most epic demolition derby you'll ever see!" Chris exclaimed through a megaphone. "Time to meet our challengers!"
Chef Hatchet pulls out a remote control and presses a button, activating various explosives placed around the arena to give it a more inviting atmosphere, and his way of warning campers that the competition isn't the only thing they need to worry about.
Some contestants gulped as Chris continued with the megaphone.
"Rule #1: When the siren sounds, there's no turning back. Rule #2: Last standing wins victory. Rule #3: No cursing. It's a family show."
They all took their positions, the engines spitting fire like angry bulls ready to charge.
"Alright folks… LET'S GO RACING!"
All 8 vehicles entered the destruction arena, and the wheels immediately filled with mud as they skidded on the muddy ground. Some began to collide with each other savagely, leaving large dents, while others remained walking away from the chaos, all while explosions flooded the area.
"Time to commit a lot of traffic violations!" Otis exclaimed excitedly when he activated the drill on his vehicle. This one went to ram a small mountain of crashed cars, destroying it and sending the scrap pieces flying.
Confessional
Raymond - "Wow, Otis is taking this challenge quite personally."
Raymond was driving his vehicle in the middle of the battle, but then his car jerks when Lucas attacks him with his quad bike.
"You deserve it for a traitor!" Lucas exclaimed, as he tried to get his opponent's car out of the arena.
"Forgive me for that, Lucas! I know you're mad, but we need to be together!" Raymond exclaimed, keeping Lucas's quad bike at bay. "I can make it up to you! I'll help you win this challenge!"
"Can you help me… by getting out of my way!" Lucas yelled back, trying to grapple with him.
Confessional
Raymond - "I know what I did to Lucas was wrong, and I want to make it up to him, but I must be careful in this challenge."
Lucas - "After being brutally stabbed in the back, I am determined to win this competition by myself, and for that I must destroy the competition."
Just then they both hear the propellers of a plane, and see Ginger flying her plane diving straight at them, the blades acting like a deadly saw.
They both scream in horror and separate, letting Ginger get back into the air to avoid crashing. Once the danger is over, they both struggle with each other again.
Karen was looking for her first victim, when she saw the perfect target. She skids through the mud and goes to ram Pearl's row truck, who flails in the driver's seat.
"Bite my dust, junk!" Karen exclaimed, activating a saw stored next to one of the wheels, beginning to cut through the metal.
"You'll be the one to swallow dirt!" Pearl yelled back at her, twisting a lever and swinging the spiked ball in the back. After turning it around, she crashes it against the roof of the school bus, intending to crush the vehicle.
Karen growls in anger and decides to cut the row truck's tires with the saw, leaving Pearl at a disadvantage, who watches her opponent move away a bit before positioning herself in front of her.
"Time to leave you a fracture!" Karen exclaimed, ready to ram the tow truck out of the arena. She stomps on the gas, and the bus spits out intimidating fire, before accelerating toward the row truck.
Pearl tries to get out of the way, but her flat tires left her stuck in the mud. She screams in fear when she sees Karen about to ram her ...
CRASH!
Karen's school bus instantly flips over when Otis's monster truck ramms the drill into her. The bus spins over the mud several times, before falling flat on the ground and its engine catching fire.
Pearl lets out a sigh of relief at being saved at the last second, and sees Otis speeding through the mud, his engine spitting fire with excitement.
"Savage, savage, savage ..." Otis kept muttering with a smile, while he kept ramming whatever junk he found on his way.
At a safe distance, Hunter was watching the pitched battle without being intrusive.
Confessional
Hunter - "My strategy for this challenge is to stay out of everything. I let those rats kill each other, and when only one is left standing, I'll take action."
Pearl was trying to speed up her tow truck, but the tires were smashed. Her vehicle had become unusable. Before getting out and escaping from the arena, another vehicle crashes into it, before being brutally crushed.
It turns out that Felix had taken advantage of her disadvantage and rammed her with his harvester at maximum level, mercilessly shredding the tow truck. Pearl screams in horror and escapes from the arena before she is killed.
"Karen and Pearl are out of the race!" Chris announced from his throne, watching the girls stand next to him, glaring at each other.
Raymond and Lucas were still struggling, trying to get the other out of the race, but then Felix's tractor with his harvester appears, threatening to destroy both of their vehicles. The two boys scream and part, avoiding the attack.
Confessional
Felix - "Those two fools need a reminder of who's boss here."
The two boys then see Otis, who was still pacing around, looking for his next victim. Raymond beckons Lucas to attack him, and it seems Lucas manages to understand as he nods his head.
They are placed in opposite positions, with the monster truck in the middle. They both accelerate, determined to turn Otis's monster truck into a sandwich, but what they hoped for doesn't happen. His blows did nothing more than alert Otis to his presence.
Otis grunts and hits the gas, causing the engines to spit fire that terrifies his two opponents, before the monster truck spins on its axis, hitting them both with the massive wheels.
Right after, Otis's attention is focused on a non-terrestrial vehicle flying over the arena of destruction, before swooping down and flying right over the monster truck, its blades out front acting like a deadly fan.
Then Ginger's plane flies over her opponent, and she presses a button, opening a secret compartment in the bottom of the vehicle, dropping hundreds of small explosives. Everyone takes cover, when explosions flood the entire area.
"You are going to pay for what you did to my friend!" Ginger yelled at Otis, who frowns and presses another on his steering wheel.
Small fireworks cannons emerged from the sides of his monster truck, quickly aimed at their target, and fired.
Hundreds of fireworks exploded around Ginger's plane, distracting the girl too much, causing her to lose control of her vehicle and crash into the mud. Ginger presses a button and ejects herself to save herself from the crash.
Hunter witnessed all of this and started driving toward Otis's monster truck.
Confessional
Hunter - "I'm not going to be alone against that psychopath behind the wheel. Better take down the threat before it's too late."
Hunter stands on his motorcycle, placing one foot on the handlebars to keep it stable. He steers his motorcycle straight at the monster truck, and when he steps right to the side, Hunter takes a big leap, landing right on the driver's seat, kicking Otis in the face.
"Is that allowed?" Pearl asked Chris.
"Ask Felix later" Chris replied, enjoying the action.
Otis manages to quickly recover from the kick, before severely hitting Hunter, who attempts to take the wheel and control the vehicle.
"You're crazy!" Otis yelled at him, trying to keep his vehicle stable.
"You are the crazy one here!" Hunter yelled back at him, trying to start the wheel and get his opponent out of the race.
The fight caused the monster truck to wander aimlessly over the arena, trampling anything in its path. The remaining contestants remain on the sidelines of the crazy vehicle.
Otis and Hunter were still fighting inside the vehicle. After being slammed into the glove compartment several times, Otis had Hunter on top of him, attempting to take the wheel, but then Otis managed to shake him off and shoved him toward the passenger door, leaving Hunter hanging and holding on to keep from falling.
Otis spun the wheel in all directions, trying to get Hunter to loosen up and fall, but the hunter wasn't going to give up that easily. With a growl of fury, Hunter throws himself against the door and throws himself at Otis, causing the same effect, with Otis now hanging from the door with the vehicle in motion, trying not to fall.
However, Hunter was not going to take chances this time, and he takes out his knife again, and with the other end, he hits Otis hard on the nose, causing him to spit blood and causing the mechanic to moan in pain and finally fall from the vehicle.
"Ginger and Otis are out of the competition!" Chris announced with his megaphone.
All the contestants gasped in surprise as they witness Hunter taking over the unbeatable monster truck.
Confessional
Raymond - "You really need a leash, Hunter."
Pearl - "Ok, that has to be against the rules."
Felix - "Technically, seriously hurting a contestant is also against the rules, but after the move I made in the previous challenge, surely that tiger will kill me if I try to explain it to him."
Hunter grins wickedly, taking the wheel and gaining control of the monster truck. He leads him around the arena, destroying everything in his path. After a few seconds, his view focuses on something in the center of the arena.
Lucas's quad bike was stuck in the mud. His driver notices that Hunter has his eye on him, followed by a sadistic smile, causing him to swallow hard in fear.
"Looks like it's time to fracture!" Chris commented on his megaphone, and the explosions were not long in coming.
Hunter drives the monster truck around Lucas's quad bike like a shark stalking its prey.
"Your vehicle doesn't have any dents!" Hunter exclaimed in amusement. "Don't worry! I'm going to fix that!"
"Lucas!" Raymond exclaimed seeing his friend in real danger. He walks away from his chase against Felix's tractor and goes to help him.
"End of the road, you miserable rat!"
Hunter smashes the gas and the vehicle spits furious fire before hurtling towards its opponent.
Raymond steps on the gas too, trying to get there on time.
Lucas tries to get out of the mud, but it was impossible.
Hunter was seconds away from crashing into Lucas, just as Raymond crashed the quad bike to the side and then fired something out of the small cannon added to the go-kart.
A soda bottle shoots out and hits Hunter right in the face, then the fizzy liquid explodes and completely soaks the hunter's face, causing him to go blind and lose control of his vehicle. While on the road, Raymond's go-kart is wrecked by the monster truck when it comes out of the arena.
When Hunter manages to regain his sight, he was already a few feet from hitting a tree.
CRASH!
The monster truck crashes into the tree, and Hunter is thrown out of the driver's seat, totally injured and covered in injuries from the crash.
Confessional
Otis - "I love karma."
"Raymond and Hunter are out of the competition" Chris announced after enjoying the action.
Lucas saw all the action and smiles to himself. Only his vehicle was left intact in the demolition arena.
"Victory is…!"
"MINE!"
CRASH!
Lucas had forgotten that there was still another contestant standing running in the arena. He shakes himself and looks horrified at Felix on his tractor, glaring at him with a sadistic smile, as the harvester goes to work shredding his opponent's vehicle.
Not wanting to be shredded and demolished to pieces, Lucas jumps out of his vehicle and flees from the combine, while Felix continues to shred the vehicle into scrap metal.
"With the last vehicle standing, Felix takes the victory!" Chris announced with his megaphone.
Felix lets out an unhinged laugh when he finishes shredding the competition completely, then spinning his vehicle on its axis to celebrate.
"Felix gets immunity and cannot be voted on tonight, but the others are in danger!" Chris said as he returned to his Spa Hotel. "I'll see you tonight to kick one more person out of the game!"
After a well-deserved shower, Felix was reading on his bunk, a happy smile on his face. He was happier than usual that he had earned his first immunity, ensuring a restful night.
Knock, knock, knock, knock, knock!
"Speaking of peace and quiet ..." the blonde commented dismissively, before going to open the door, while muttering about who would be so inconsiderate to bother him at this time.
Opening the door, he finds Otis standing on the other side. He wore a bandage around his nose to deal with the blow Hunter had given him a few hours ago.
"Is something offered to you?" asked Felix crossing his arms.
"I want you to vote for Hunter" Otis replied quickly.
"Tell me something I don't know" Felix commented.
"He's the biggest threat here," Otis explained. "The longer he stays here, the more danger we're all going to be. I'm sure that blow to my nose is only a fraction of what he could do."
Felix gets thoughtful, nodding on that detail about that contestant.
"I already have the votes of Pearl, Lucas and Raymond" Otis explained. "Vote for him too, and he's out."
Felix nods and closes the door. He returns to his bunk to continue reading, but then ...
KNOCK, KNOCK, KNOCK, KNOCK, KNOCK!
"Doesn't anyone know what privacy is, or what?" he muttered, complaining again about being bothered at this hour.
Opening the door, he finds Hunter standing on the other side with his arms crossed.
"What do you want?" asked Felix with a frown.
"Vote for Otis tonight" Hunter replied directly. "It is time to destroy the competition."
"And why should I save you and not him?"
"Because I'm the only one here who is willing to support you" explained the hunter. "The others have already been targeting you from day one. If they get rid of me, you will be the next target of all."
Felix wanted to protest, but did not know what to say to those valid points.
"Karen and Ginger have already agreed to vote for Otis, and with you we can finally get rid of him too" Hunter smiled.
"Those are just four votes," Felix pointed out. "That would only lead to a tiebreaker."
"Otis and Pearl are allied, Lucas hates me for some reason, and Raymond plays along," Hunter explained. "I'm not worried about a tiebreaker. I can easily destroy that giant with no problem."
Felix raises a hand to his chin, considering his options.
"I hope you make the right decision, Felix" Hunter said with a serious look. "See you tonight".
Confessional
Felix - "I must say that I quite enjoy this sense of power that I have now. My vote could be decisive for tonight ... However, I know very well who to save, and who to vote for."
All the contestants had passed through the confessional to cast their votes. All eight had shown up at the elimination ceremony. Chris had already handed his marshmallow to Felix, who was giving them a superior look.
"This was without a doubt the greatest show I have ever seen" commented Chris. "All of you crashing, shooting, exploding, and trying to kill each other was the most entertaining thing I've ever seen. I already missed seeing you that way."
All of the contestants looked at him with quite obvious anger. Most had bandages to cover their injuries from car crashes.
"However, one of you seven will be eliminated today and will never be able to set foot on this island again ... EVER."
They all gulped in fear. Karen gestures to Ginger to cheer her on, Otis and Pearl nod their heads at each other, Hunter glances at Felix, who nods surreptitiously, and Raymond tries to cheer Lucas on, but he just crosses his arms. and looks away.
"The following contestants can come pick up their marshmallows ..."
...
...
"Ginger"
...
...
"Lucas"
...
...
"Pearl"
...
...
"Raymond"
...

"and Karen"
Everyone who was called got up and picked up their marshmallows to taste them with a few sighs of relief.
Otis and Hunter look down on each other, noticing the injuries they both had from their fight. Felix looked at everything with a smile, while Pearl seemed very concerned about Otis.
"Otis, Hunter, today one of you two will have to leave the island forever" said Chris, before lifting the marshmallow into the air. "The last marshmallow goes to ..."

"Otis"
Otis breathes a sigh of relief and Pearl lets out a little cry of triumph as Hunter froze in place. Karen was smiling with pleasure.
"What?!" Hunter exclaimed, his eyes, or eye, wide. "Am I out? Me?"
"And with how much you've endured" Felix commented sincerely. They all nodded in agreement.
"Hunter, you have been eliminated from Total Drama: Enchanted. It's time you leave the competition ... forever."
"But… I'm the only one here with REAL strategies and skills in this garbage contest!" Hunter exclaimed in rage and anger, as he stood up and looked at the other contestants. "I deserved to win the prize!"
"Sorry, Hunter" Karen smirked. "Life is not always rosy"
Hunter's eye widened even more, and reality hit him like a bucket of cold water, and the fury contained within him prepared to be released.
"YOU!" he exclaimed, glaring at her with hatred and fury. "How did I not see it before?! I WAS SO BLIND!"
"What is he talking about?" Ginger wondered.
"Nothing nothing!" Chris cut in, snapping his fingers for reinforcements.
Chef and some interns appeared out of nowhere and pounced on Hunter, tying him up with a straitjacket and putting on a mask to hide his furious face, revealing only his bloodshot eye.
They load it up and quickly place it in the Sling of Shame, while Chris stands by the lever with a smile.
"THIS DOESN'T END HERE!" Hunter kept yelling. "THERE WILL BE ANOTHER SEASON! I WILL SEE YOU THEN AND I WILL DESTROY YOU!"
Chris pulls the lever, shooting Hunter through the skies, away from the island and out of the competition, as he emits a cry of fury that is quickly lost in the distance.
"What was he talking about?" Raymond then asked.
"I guess we'll never know" Chris said, pushing the skater away and looking at the camera. "There are only seven contestants left, and everyone is ready to give it their all to succeed. Who will win next time? Who will face the slingshot next? Who will not make it to the final six? Find out next time on ..."
"Total! Drama! Enchanted!"
Karen had returned to her secret base in the underground facility on the island, quite happy to be rid of Hunter at last. There were seven contestants left and she was one step closer to being declared the winner of Total Drama: Enchanted.
Once she crosses out Hunter's photo with a red X and puts it in the folder, she hears the footsteps approaching and sees Tony standing next to her. She notices a bump on the boy's head, as well as a folder in his hand, but decides not to ask now.
"Why haven't you gotten rid of Otis?" Tony asked curiously.
"This is not the time yet" Karen explained with a smile.
"But he knows that you are the cheater who fired almost all the contestants, and Pearl has teamed up with him" Tony explained. "Besides, Hunter was willing to ally himself with you."
"Poor innocent Tony" Karen shakes her head. "You have a lot to learn about humans. We are not that superficial. If Hunter found out about us, he was going to destroy us without a trace of mercy."
Tony is curious about what has been said, but decides not to question, since his knowledge of humanity is limited. He was interested in telling Karen about his find, but when he saw her chatting about the competition, he decided to keep it in a nearby drawer and leave the matter for another time.
However, Karen can identify Tony's expression, wanting to talk about something, but he holds back and leaves it up in the air. She makes a note to check the file later.
"In any case ..." Karen continued. "Keep up the good work, and your efforts will be rewarded, Tony. I will comply with your demands, but remember you have to help me get to the finale."
"Yes ma'am" Tony bowed like a servant and left the room.
CONTESTANTS
Felix, Ginger, Lucas, Karen, Otis, Pearl, Raymond.
Eliminated: Bianca (Raptor Falcons), Isaac (Raptor Falcons), Erika (Raptor Falcons), Chantal (Rabid Rabbits), Tony (Raptor Falcons), Clover (Raptor Falcons), Agatha (Raptor Falcons), Julien (Raptor Falcons), Nigel (Rabid Rabbits), Maggie (Rabid Rabbits), Diego (Raptor Falcons), Rita (Raptor Falcons), Yoshi (Rabid Rabbits), Sonya (Rabid Rabbits), Hunter (Rabid Rabbits)
And this chapter ends with the elimination of Hunter. It was time to let him go, considering that the same thing happened to him as Agatha, his fury and rage were at the limit, and it is better to throw them out before the chaos arrives.
The challenge itself was inspired by the Thunder Hollow scene from Cars 3, and some of the vehicles are similar to those in the movie, such as Karen's school bus, which was identical to Miss Fritter.
Like other chapters, this one also went through some changes.
-It was originally going to be a duo racing challenge, and Raymond and Lucas would win, but I didn't know how to implement it. Added to this, the title of this episode would have been The Fast and the Hunter.
-Before the winner of this challenge would be Lucas, after Raymond saved him from being run over by Hunter, but I had forgotten about Felix, so I decided to give the blonde the victory.
-At first, Felix would be driving a forklift with a flamethrower, but he didn't know what to do with it, so I replaced him with a tractor and combine. (The tractor is another reference to another character in the Cars franchise)
The beginning of this chapter has introduced us to a new character, whom I like to call The Hood, who seems to be the real mole Chris was talking about. His identity remains a mystery, and will be very important to the future of this story, and what comes next ...
Who will be under that hood?
Will it be a character from this season, or is it a new character?
Is it a friend of Chris, or a partner?
Is it good or evil?
We will have to wait a while to get the answers. I just tell you that there is a whole story behind the scenes of this season. This whole mole arc will be a story that I'm slowly developing, so bear with me please.
The elimination of Hunter leaves us with seven contestants between whom there are great tensions: Otis and Pearl's alliance against Karen and Ginger's "friendship", plus the alliance with the shapeshifter Tony, Raymond and Lucas continue to argue about what happened, and in the middle of all this is Felix, who had declared war on everyone since day one.
We enter the final stretch and there are only six chapters left to finish Total Drama: Enchanted. Who do you think will make it to the final six?
Well, that would be all from me. We will see you in the next chapter. Goodbye.
