Summary: 20 contestants battle it out on a private resort in a tropical paradise hosted by the amazing Chris McLean, and his assistant, Chef Hatchet. In a brand new season of twists and turns, who will walk away with the prize?
We don't owe Total Drama, only our OCs.
Remaining Contestants: Joseph, Abigail, Brittany, Dante, Rebekah, Ilyria, and Lin.
"Last time on Total Drama Hawaiian Resort…" Chris began the famous recap. "Our contestants competed in a capture the flag challenge, where one of them started off with the flag. The goal was to keep a hold onto the flag until sundown."
"Butch and Ilyria broke things off with their relationship, but they also worked together to try and get the brute's memory back about the incident we will no longer name," Alexis continued.
"In the end, it was Brittany who won immunity, and this time, her vote wasn't stolen from her, as she chose to eliminate the brawling brute himself, Butch! He also revealed the name of Dante's other personality, which is Damiano. It's a bit creepy, if I do say so myself. We're down to 7, and things are heating up! Who'll be the next to fall? Find out on this episode of Total!" Chris began.
"Drama!" Alexis continued.
"HAWAIIAN RESORT!" the two let out together.
Dear Mom and Dad I'm doing fine,
You guys are on my mind.
You asked me what I wanted to be
and now I think the answer is plain to see,
I wanna be famous.
I wanna live close to the sun,
Go pack your bags, 'cause I've already won,
Everything to prove, nothing in my way
I'll get there one day.
Cause, I wanna be famous!
Na na na na na na na na na na na na na na na!
I wanna be, I wanna be, I wanna be famous
Na na na na na na na na na na na na na na na! (as can be heard in the background)
I wanna be, I wanna be, I wanna be famous
(Whistling in tune)
Episode 17: A Relaxing Day, and Opening Treasure Chests
Abigail
"I'm still shocked about yesterday," the former child star let out quietly to herself, as she braided her hair. "Dante has another personality? That's why he's been acting so cold to me for a while. I have to do something to get him back to his normal self. What can I do?" She sighed gently as she finished braiding her hair. "I have to think of something…but I don't know…" The woman would soon get dressed, after washing her face, and brushing her teeth. Once she finished, she would leave her room. "I can't believe I'm in the top 7! Just six more people, and then I win the million dollars!"
Lin
The street urchin paced around her room for a bit before looking out of her window and onto the island below.
"Final seven. Too bad among them are a guy three times my size, a total b*tch of a mobster and a guy who apparently has an alternate personality. Where do I even start? Brittany's won the past two challenges so she's probably the biggest threat, but with how little I know about Dante's other persona, he could end up being a wild card that I can't risk dealing with. First thing's first though, I need to find one of those last two idols."
Wasting no more time, Lin hurried to leave her room and head outside.
Damiano
"Damn it… Damn it!" Damiano cursed to himself as he paced around his room, his door barricaded and blinders shut. "He just had to remember my name! I would have figured him being hypnotized would make it so he wouldn't remember a thing! All eyes were on Demetrius, as they should have been!"
The alternate personality gave a heavy sigh as he sat back down on his bed with his head in his hands.
"Okay… It's not over just yet. Now's the time to completely break the rest of these idiots. Brittany said she wants to work with me, as much as I know that's a bold-faced lie, I can't let her know that I'm aware of that fact. If I can work with her for now then I can get the rest of them out, starting with Abigail. Her being far too nosy put me into this mess! Then once they're out, I'll see if Avalanche is a fan of chocolate, whether that mutt likes it or not!"
Brittany
"Those last two challenges were a breeze," the mob boss smirked. "If I continue to win, I'll be unstoppable. There are only a couple more threats in my way that I need to take out, so it'll be a snap getting that annoying Lin out, as well as that big man, Joseph. The others I can deal with later, but those two are the main people I need to take out, and fast."
Rebekah
The tomboy had already gotten dressed, and would be heading downstairs, trying to find one of the remaining two idols.
"That brat, Brittany got out Butch, and if she wins today, I might be next. I can't let that happen. If I can find that Chris idol, then I'll be safe, even if I don't win the challenge." She would look around in the bushes, huffing in annoyance. "This game is getting harder and harder everyday. I hope I can make it to the end."
Joseph
The tribal chief had a look of deep contemplation and focus as he looked out onto the island from his room.
"Six other people left. One of them has been getting the wins that I should be getting, so Brittany's going down first chance any of us get. Dante having another personality doesn't matter right now, he'll go down later and right now it's mostly Abigail's problem for being so hyper-fixated on him. Right now I just need to focus on one thing; winning."
Ilyria
The spy sighed as she got up from her bed, thinking about all that had happened. "Final 7. I can't believe it, and I haven't even won a single merge challenge yet. So far, only Joseph and Brittany's won challenges, with Brittany winning two of them. If I can win today, I'll be tied with Joseph. But then I'll have the tough choice on choosing who to eliminate. That'll be difficult. I suppose I could get rid of Brittany, she's a major threat now."
"Attention campers! Today, we're going to let you rest, while we still figure out what kind of challenge we'll be doing. It's going to take a bit for us to think about, so for now, you can go and chill with the losers at the pool, or do whatever you teenagers do. But no funny business! McLean out!" Chris announced over the loudspeaker.
Abigail seemed relieved hearing the announcement. "Maybe I can get through to Dante!" she thought to herself, excited. "I really hope I can…I've missed talking to the real him…" As she went over to his room and knocked on his door, she was about to call out to him but stopped herself.
"He's probably going to yell at me again…" she let out sadly, before deciding to head to the dining hall to get some breakfast. As she did, she noticed Joseph coming out of his room. "Good morning, Joseph! What are you planning on doing today?"
"Well, if today's going to be a free day then that means I can get a few things done."
"Oh?" Abigail asked curiously.
"Yeah, I'm going to go see Walter now about that boxing match we talked about, and I could go see Lucille later tonight. Otherwise I'll be spending the day looking for one of those idols."
"I'm still trying to get through to Dante…I mean, Damiano. I still need to get used to that name," the former child star groaned. "I still can't believe he has another personality."
"Don't bother." The two turned to see Lin walking up to them with her hands in her pockets. "I doubt he's going to leave his room as long as we're here. I also don't think Dante's completely gone like Demetrius said. He's a slimeball, remember? He could just as easily be lying to get into your head. You can try to catch him when he's out of his room, but you should have a plan once you do."
"Well, that idiot's in England," Abigail let out, remembering where Demetrius had been taken. "So he's not here. But you're right, I need to talk with Dante, or Damiano, or whoever he is. Wish me luck!" With that, the former child star set off to wait for when the man was out.
"So, what are you going to do?" Joseph asked.
"Probably the same as you, going out to look for the idols." Lin replied before walking away.
"Brittany first?" The taller man asked.
"Brittany first." Lin repeated.
Abigail soon made it back to Dante's room, hoping to catch him. She had to try again. She couldn't stop thinking about him. With another knock at his door, Abigail was almost surprised to see the door open on its own.
"Dante? Are you in there?" she called out, hoping to hear his voice. "Er…I mean, Damiano? Can we talk? Please?" She asked. As she stepped inside his room, she gasped in shock when she saw a rope made out of the bed sheets and blankets leading outside of the now open window.
"Oh my GOD!" Abigail shouted, running over to the window and managing to catch a glimpse of Damiano running into the woods. Shaking it off, she would hurry out of his room, to go after the man.
In the woods…
Brittany would be in the woods with Avalanche, as the two would be searching for the last two remaining idols. Avalanche barking would draw the mob boss's attention over to a pile of dirt, as she dug into it.
"Good going, girl!" Brittany smirked, as she would head over to the pile of dirt. "Something good has got to be in here!" She would dig into the pile as well. However, it would turn out to be one of the fake idols, as it had no McLean seal. The mob boss scowled. "Of course there's fake idols around here. That McLean is smarter than he lets on."
Avalanche would bark again as Damiano would come into view, and the mob boss turned to him. "I thought you said you would only work with me once?" she asked dryly. "What made you change your mind?" She raised a curious eyebrow as she glanced at him, with Avalanche now standing next to the mob boss.
"Who said I wanted to work with you? I just needed to get out of there."
"Figures," the mob boss huffed. "That girl won't leave you alone? You have to at least do something for her to avoid suspicion on you again. Why don't you do what that idiot Fernando did?"
"No way, I don't do that mushy stuff!"
"It'll get the attention off of you," the mob boss continued. "And it could even break her down more, to the fact that we can get her out."
"I don't think you quite understand the situation. Everyone knows about the alternate personality. Nobody's going to buy Dante suddenly acting normal again, let alone being overly flirtatious like Fernando was."
"There has to be something we can do. But what?!" Brittany scowled, looking annoyed as she glared at the alternate personality.
"I think now we should destroy them mentally, if they have anything special to them we take it and break it!"
"Oh, this should be good," the mob boss smirked.
The former child star panted as she made her way through the woods. "Dante! Dante! Please, I want to talk to you!"
Brittany scowled as she heard the former child star. "Gosh darn it!"
"Argh, she just doesn't quit!" Damiano growled.
"Just go and deal with her!" Brittany demanded.
"Even getting close to her puts me at risk of losing control, and I am not giving Dante his free will back!"
"Just do something!" Brittany yelled. "Get her off your chest, or something!"
Abigail suddenly came into view. "There you are!"
Damiano suddenly backed away a bit, glaring at the former child star and the mob boss for forcing him into this situation.
"Dante!" Abigail let out. "Why are you so cold? I miss when we used to talk like before."
"We only ever talked because Chris forced Dante onto your team and the universe just had to have me nearby while you were cuddling up to your boy toy, Fernando!"
"He's not my boy toy!" Abigail yelled. "I dumped his ass, don't you remember?!"
"Still. There had to be some excuse for me to be nearby when you two were together, just like Lucille and Joseph, we're all somehow always forced together. It's maddening! All I want to be is left alone! Dante's gone, accept it!"
"No! I can't!" Abigail had tears in her eyes. "I want him back!" She grabbed his hands. "Please, Dante! You have to remember me! I love you!"
Damiano clutched his head as though he were in pain.
"ARGH! YOU BARELY KNOW EITHER OF US!" He shouted before running off.
Abigail had tears in her eyes as she ran after him, hoping to catch up to him.
*Confessionals*
Abigail: "I refuse to back down! I want the real Dante back. The one who was so shy around me!"
*static*
Brittany: "This should be interesting…"
*End Confessionals*
Abigail would catch up to Damiano, grabbing his hands. "Dante?"
"Stop calling me Dante!"
"I can't! I want the old you back!" the former child star pleaded. "Please! Come back to me."
Damiano covered his ears and strained himself to focus as he slowly tried to walk away from Abigail.
The former child star wouldn't give up. "Please! I wish for you to be yourself. The one who gazed at me during the talent show!"
"No! I've worked too hard to stay this long!"
"I refuse to accept that answer!" Abigail let out.
"HE'S GONE AND HE'S STAYING GONE!"
Abigail shook her head. "No! He can't be gone! I miss him!" She grabbed his hands, and would instantly reach up to kiss him. Damiano's eyes widened, allowing Abigail to see his diamond shaped pupils change back to Dante's natural round ones.
As Abigail broke the kiss the two looked at each other in silence for a moment.
"Woah…" Dante said.
"Dante?" Abigail looked at him, a little worried that the kiss didn't work at first. "Is it really you?"
"Yeah…? Why wouldn't it be me? Did… did something happen?" He asked, his expression growing sullen.
"It's a long story…" Abigail bit her lip. "You were acting very cold for a long time."
"It happened again…" Dante sighed, tears welling up in his eyes. "This always happens! Everyone always tells me the same thing! Suddenly I change and start hurting people and I don't even remember doing that!"
"Oh, Dante…" Abigail reached up to wipe away his tears. "You should know that I dumped Fernando."
"What, why? Did he do something?"
"Apparently, he was just using me," Abigail sighed.
"How long was I out of it?"
"A while, I think," Abigail replied. "We're in the final seven."
"That long? I guess I have a lot of catching up to do…"
"Yeah, you do…" Abigail sighed. She glanced into his eyes. "That kiss felt amazing."
Once the realization of what had happened hit Dante, he began to turn as red as a tomato.
"Are…you okay?" Abigail asked.
"Y-yeah, I just forgot that we kissed."
"Want to do it again?" the former child star gazed into his eyes. From the bushes nearby, Brittany gagged and began to walk away as the two shared another kiss.
*Confessionals*
Brittany: "I was so close to hurling at that very precise moment. Thank GOD I didn't."
*static*
Abigail: "Yes! I knew my perseverance would pay off in the end!"
*static*
Dante: "That kiss was awesome! But there's so many questions I have right now… I guess at least now I have Abigail to help me answer those questions."
*End Confessionals*
Rebekah and Lin
"Find anything yet?" the tomboy asked as she searched through some bushes, trying to find one of the two remaining idols.
"Nothing. That's two-thirds of the island now that we've combed through. How Demetrius managed to get his hands on one is beyond me!"
"You do remember he had Walter and Butch both under his control, as his pawns," Rebekah deadpanned.
"And they were both in the game doing challenges as we were when he had it. So if they found it in a place we haven't checked then that means they're likely not too far apart from each other."
"We haven't checked around the elimination area…" Rebekah mused. "Or, what if they can be hidden in the Pool? We haven't thought of looking in the Pool."
"Maybe. Let's give it a try."
The two would head towards the Pool for Fools, Rebekah easily slipping off her hoodie and pants, as she was wearing her swimsuit underneath, before diving into the pool.
Rebekah swam in the pool, before noticing something near the mini-bar that was attached to the pool, and grabbed it. It was the Alexis idol, and it was the legit one!
Rebekah broke the surface, grinning. "Look what I found, Lin!"
"Perfect!" Lin cheered. "Now we're guaranteed at least one chance to stop Brittany!"
"It's about damn time too," the tomboy grinned as she climbed out of the pool.
"Woo! The girls are getting W's!" Terra cheered as she and the other losers watched on.
"It's about time too," Miguel let out, as he sat next to Trish. "Make Brittany pay girls!"
"Oh, we plan on it, right, Lin?" Rebekah grinned.
"Oh we definitely will!" Lin hissed.
"Oh? You've found it." Ilyria placed her book down. "Don't worry girls, I won't be taking it from you. I want to get Brittany out too."
"Is that so?" Rebekah glared at the spy. "I mean, technically, we can trust you, since you got rid of that creep, Demetrius."
"Yes, that's correct," the spy smiled.
"So, counting Joseph, we effectively have the four of us against her. Although numbers don't exactly mean much since she's won the past two challenges." Lin noted.
"We need to figure out a way to stop her, somehow," the tomboy let out.
"Attention final seven; please meet me in the dining room and we'll tell you about what's coming up next!" Chris announced.
"Well, we need to hide this somewhere," Rebekah said. "But where?"
"Don't you have some sort of spy gadget we can use to hide it?" Lin asked.
"Brilliant thinking," Ilyria smirked. She took out a gadget, which looked like a silk bag. "This bag basically can hold anything, even heavy items, and still remain the same size as it is now."
"Fancy," Rebekah let out, passing the idol over. Ilyria placed it into the bag, and sealed it. "Now we're good." The three girls would head into the dining room.
Dining Hall
The final seven would meet up in the dining hall, where Chris would be waiting, along with Johan, Alexis, and Chef.
"Welcome, final seven! Congrats again on making it this far, and I'd like to apologize if you were all expecting a challenge today. But hey, I don't think you guys are complaining about getting a day off!" Chris began.
"Not at all," Abigail smiled as she stood next to Dante.
"I'd say it was a pretty eventful day, even without a challenge to do." Lin added. "Still, if you need time to think of a challenge, that tells me you really are struggling to think of something good…"
"Don't make me eliminate you on the spot for that remark!" Chris glared at Lin.
"Get on with it." Joseph groaned.
"Today's gonna be simple. I'm gonna give you keys to chests which are right over here," Chris began, gesturing to seven chests. "However, one of these chests contains a skull, and if you get it, you're automatically eliminated."
Abigail shivered. "That's bad."
"Once you pick a chest, there's no switching," Alexis warned, as she handed out the keys to the seven players. "So…who wants to open up a chest first?"
"I'll go," Brittany smirked as she stepped up to a chest, and used her key to open it. Inside would be a banana, which made Lin flinch. "Seriously?"
Chris laughed. "Okay, who's next?"
Joseph huffed as he went to another chest, he hesitated for just a moment before picking one and opening it, revealing a bag of chips and soda. The bag of chips would be enough for two people to share, along with the bottle of soda.
"Well, that bag of chips will be perfect for you to share with your girlfriend," Chris smirked at the tribal chief.
"Chris!" Alexis glared at the host.
"What?! I'm not wrong!"
"That's so romantic…" Brittany said dryly. "Not! It makes me gag."
"You never found love, so zip it," Abigail glared at the mob boss. "Are you going to do what Chris suggested, Joseph?"
"Probably, but not everything I do needs to involve Lucille. NEXT!"
"Alright, let's see what I've got." Lin shrugged, her chest had a toy gun inside of it. "Oh haha, real mature…"
Rebekah would go next, and in her chest was a riding crop. "You've got to be kidding me…"
Brittany snickered. "Are you gonna ride another horse?"
"Bite me," Rebekah glared.
Abigail would go up to a chest, and open it, and breathed a sigh of relief. "Oooh, a book! This looks interesting!"
Ilyria went up to her chest, and got a plush monkey toy. "This is bloody ridiculous. What am I supposed to do with this?"
"Wait, but if everyone got random stuff, then that means…" Dante began, as he opened his chest to reveal a plastic skull.
"Oooh, tough break, Dante! You're out of the game!" Chris announced.
Abigail's eyes widened, as tears came to her eyes. "Oh my god, no!" She glanced over at Dante. "That's not fair!"
"Sorry! Those are the rules!" Chris shrugged. "Any final words, Dante?"
Abigail had tears in her eyes as she took Dante's hands in hers. "I'm so sorry we can't spend more time together."
"It's okay!" Dante assured. "If you made it this far then I know you'll only do better. As for me, maybe this is for the best. I probably caused a lot of trouble while I wasn't in control and maybe being out of the game will give me a chance to understand everything and try to do something to fix it."
"I'll try to win, for us," Abigail promised, gazing into his eyes, as her eyes still had tears in them. Dante gave Abigail a quick kiss on her forehead and a hug before leaving to join the others by the pool.
Rebekah was wide-eyed seeing this. "Did something happen to Dante? He's…back to normal."
"It's a long story," Abigail rubbed the back of her neck. "But I finally got through to him."
"We've got no time to hear it!" Chris clapped his hands as he turned to the camera. "We're down to six, and things are only getting better than ever before! Who'll be the next to fall in one of the craziest challenges we ever come up with? Find out, on Total! Drama! HAWAIIAN RESORT!"
