A/N: THIS IS A DIRECT SEQUEL TO TOTAL REORDERED ISLAND. READ THAT FIRST IF YOU WANT THIS TO MAKE SENSE.
First off, sorry about the delay. I was intending this to be out on April 30th, but due to the file for a chapter of my other story corrupting I got behind. With that out of the way. Welcome to Total Reordered Action. I have always believed the premise of Action is amazing, and the season was only lackluster because of a lack of new plotlines. So in this version every character who makes it far has a plotline attached to them. I want this to be as good as Island. One thing you will notice in this fic, is that my writing voice is a bit different. When I wrote Island I was emulating fangren's style. Since then I've developed my own. It's still fairly detailed though.
The season begins with a shot of the Island as Chris recaps the previous special. "Last season on Total Drama Island." Trent and Kitty are shown at the beginning of the finale in their cow and chicken hat respectively. Chris blows the air horn and they start running. Then they are shown crossing the planks carrying eagle eggs. Then they are shown running to the finish with Kitty making it there first. The majority of the cast is shown cheering, then Kitty is shown being presented with a giant cardboard check as Chef holds the smaller one she just won. "Trent and Kitty battled it out for 100,000 dollars. In the end, Kitty the selfie loving free spirit won the supersized check." Kitty is shown taking a check from Chris, then Chef is shown ripping up the prize check. Then Chef is shown holding up the case with a 1,000,000 inside "And while we had to let her keep half, she gave up the other fifty thousand for the chance to win, one million big ones!"
Chris is shown bringing the case in, then the cast is shown running to go look for it, then Topher and Gwen are shown looking, then the case is shown in the river, followed by it nearly being eaten by an alligator, then it actually being eaten by a shark. Everyone is shown floating in the water as Chris exits his red helicopter. "With the million smackaroos stuffed into a briefcase, our twenty-two campers plus two interns set off, on the race for the case! Until the case nearly got eaten by an alligator, then was actually eaten by a shark." He chuckled. "Bet you they didn't see that one coming."
Several of the contestants are shown fighting over the case on top of the pool ladder, The case falls and it bounces off of the pool, over the dock and into the water. "Now the sixteen who were closest to winning, have been given the chance to win another million dollars!" Chris chuckles again. "Actually it's the same money."
The recap ends with Chris at an entirely new location. He walks past a trailer and there are several lights around, then he is shown walking around some warehouses. Then an orange screen is shown with a sun and crescent moon pattern at the top as a calender with a large red 42 is shown, as well as a stopwatch. Then an old film reel is shown cycling through the sixteen contestants before ending on a chest of 'riches' the film reel burns and Chris is shown standing in between a couple of trailers with two small wooden benches to either side of him. "They've been instructed to report to an old film lot for a whole new set of challenges. Forty-two days, sixteen castmates, one heck of a lot cash. Welcome to… Total! Drama! Action!
(intro)
{A standing light pops up on a set with skyscrapers in the background. A hanging light swoops in front of a set with houses in the background, then a camera pops out of a sewer with a rat on it, and another camera pops out of a hole in a tree scaring the raccoon inside. A masculine hand raises up a clapboard and sets it off.}
Dear Mom and Dad, I'm doin' fine;
{The camera's point of view shows a film lot with the two trailers, city background, water tower, and fake hill. Chris drives by in a golf cart, and the camera flies through to the warehouses as crew members push a couple backdrops through, follows by the costume rack. )
You guys are on my mind!
{The camera goes up the fake hill and down into a small pool where Jo is swimming, a shark is behind her. Jo notices it and turns around to punch it in the nose.)
Ya asked me what I wanted to be,
And now I think the answer is plain to see!
(The camera moves out of the water to show Scott on a surfboard held up by machinery. He desperately tries to dodge several seagulls being shot at him. One finally hits him and he falls over.)
I wanna be...famous!
(The camera moves left to show Duncan as the one shooting the gulls from a gull cannon with Gwen right beside, laughing along with him. Duncan turns and Gwen looks at her feet, rubbing her left arm nervously. The camera moves on to show the sastchwawanakwa in a pink dress, matching boa, and straw hat. The door slides open and the camera goes through)
I wanna live close to the sun!
(A beach set is shown with Alejandro and Amber lounging on a beach chair together, a shark sits in a beach chair to either side of them wearing sunglasses.)
Well pack your bags, 'cause I've already won!
(Topher is shown in the make-up confessional having it applied. A hand sprays something in his eye accidentally)
Everythin' to prove, nothin' in my way;
(Trent and Amy are standing on rock pillars with padded poles. Amy hits Trent several times before he hits her back sending some of her hair down.)
I'll get there one day.
(The hair lands in a pot of sludge Chef is cooking. He shrugs and turns to Sammy who looks nervous but determinedly back at him.)
'Cause I wanna be...famous!
(Harold and Ellody are shown standing in front of a set of screens in the security room. Harold presses a random button and causes an explosion. )
(Na-na nanananaa, nanana-nanaa, na-nananananaa)
(We focus in on one screen where a grizzly bear is growling towards Ella. The princess wannabe smiles at him sweetly, the bear smiles back and the two dance. )
I wanna be! I wanna be! I wanna be famous! (N a-na nanananaa, nanana-nanaa, na-nananananaa)
(They dance their way past the lame-o-sine and the back window lowers to show Noah and Crimson inside. The camera continues through the window as camera flashes go off. Chris is shown standing at a podium in a powder blue tux. He opens an envelope.)
I wanna be! I wanna be! I wanna be famous! (Na-na nanananaa, nanana-nanaa, na-nananananaa)
(The scene moves out to show Chef is in a sparkly hot pink dress and matching Chef's hat, along with sliver earrings and necklace. Chris looks a little weirded out. The camera moves back through a large screen then pans down to Geoff and Kitty sitting on a couch about to make out.)
*The sound of the theme being whistled goes through the air *
(They notice the camera and decide not to kiss, the scene moves back to show a small studio with two couches to either side of the one the couple is sitting at. The rest of the cast in sitting on them as the large screen above flashes to the Total Drama action logo. )
(end of intro)
A sewer grate with visible smell lines is shown before the focus shifts back to show a wall with a fancy but clearly old sign above a gate. A beaten up bus skids to a stop in front of the gate. We focus on the door of the bus as it opens to reveal Duncan taking a huge whiff of the air. "Man, I missed the smell of the city." He steps off followed by Gwen, then Trent, Ellody and Harold.
Amy and Sammy reach the door at the same time Amy glares at her sister. "Move it Samey I got here first!"
"Actually I'm pretty sure I got here first." Sammy replied nervously, despite this she doesn't back down and the two try to force the other to move aside. They clearly take too long as someone else on the bus pushes them off. Sammy runs smack into Harold, who is messing with a puzzle cube. It breaks from the impact and Harold slams into Ellody knocking her over.
"Sorry Ellody." Harold says, helping her up.
"I appear to be uninjured. A shame about your Rubick's cube though." Ellody noted gesturing to the pieces littering the ground.
Apparently while this was happening everyone else exited the bus as it drove away leaving nothing but the contestants and their luggage behind. Trent is helping Sammy to her feet. "Uh. Where are the crew?" The sweet twin asks
"Perhaps we got off at the wrong stop?" Ellody suggested.
"That rust bucket only had one stop." Noah pointed out.
"Well I'm not sticking around!"Amy scoffed.
"You're really gonna give up a million dollars?" Gwen asked.
"Guess Sammy will have to win for you." Duncan snarked.
Amy groaned. "No way. If either of us is gonna win it'll be me."
"The money is the reason we're all here." Alejandro said.
"Not me! I'm here to compete on Total Drama with the best host ever!" Topher smiled.
"Is he serious?" Scott scoffed.
"Unfortunately." Noah muttered.
"A washed up actor turned reality T.V. Host desperately clinging to fame? Real idol material." Amber remarked.
"You just don't have taste." Topher brushed them off.
"Doesn't take taste to know acting like your idol is beyond desperate." Scott jabbed.
"I'm not taking advice from a villain who didn't even make the merge." Topher retorted.
Alejandro intervened. "Gentleman must we fight?"
"Don't give us that Al. Everyone knows what you're like." Scott told him.
Before Alejandro could retort a honk rang through the air as Chris arrived on a cart with a large trailer attached to it. "Dude it's about time." Duncan said.
"Hop on everyone." Chris told them. Everyone began to pick up their luggage and board the cart.. Of course this was not fast enough for Chris. "Come on people, sheesh. We haven't got all day. This cart is rented by the hour!" Chris began to drive everyone into the film lot.
Noah looked from Crimson to Gwen. "So what's Gwen's label? Crimson is already the goth."
Topher rolled his eyes. "Our labels are already on the official website. I'm the Chris fan, and Gwen's the loner."
"Ah. The loner, that's so different." Noah said sarcastically. Crimson struggled not to smile.
"Shut up!" Chris snapped back at them. He regained his hostly smile quickly enough. "Welcome to the set of Total Drama Action!" A flash transitions takes us to later when the cart is passing in front of all the warehouses. "This season's hottest reality show will be shot here on an abandoned film lot."
"Oh I've always wanted to be in a princess movie!" Ella exclaimed.
"You're not gonna be in the movies. You're gonna be on T.V." Chris told her, adjusting the mirror. "And don't interrupt me, ever!" He flicked the princess Wannabe's nose.
"Sorry, Chris." Ella apologized.
Another flash transition shows that the cart is now driving by a western inspired set. The standard street scene. Complete with bank, saloon, and cacti. "You'll be spending the next six weeks here. Competing in challenges and for rewards. All for the chance to win some monster cash!" Chris continued.
"Whoo! I'm totally hyped!" KItty cheered, taking a selfie of her in front of the western set.
"Shush!" Chris warned. Kitty nodded quietly. "Like last season, one team will win and the other team will watch one of their own make their way down the dreaded walk of shame, to the lame-o-zine." The host rolled up his window. The contestants quickly discovered why as they passed a red carpet leading to a broken down old limo that was backing up badly. Exhaust went straight into the contestants faces making them cough.
"Couldn't you have sprung for a better ride?" Trent asked.
Chris lowered his window. "No. Now since we don't have the outhouse to dump your deepest darkest secrets in," The cart pulled up to a trailer. "You'll dish the dirt in our new makeup confessional!"
(Confessional)
The confessional is a makeup table, with several costumes and hats in the background, Pink curtains are on both sides.
Sammy: This is a lot better than an outhouse. (A hand from off screen offered her a tube of lipstick.) Thanks!
Static
The cart stops at a large tent with a brown striped roof, and a nearby picnic table. "To your left is the crafts and service tent, catered by Chef." Chris explained. The cook ran out of the tent with a cleaver chasing after a racoon. Kitty goes to take a selfie with the scene and Chris guns it, sending the selfie lover back. "If you survive Chef you'll have to make it through our dramatic award ceremony." Chris gestured to a grand amphitheater with two sets of wooden bleachers to either side. Flanking the stage are two gigantic gold statues of Chris. "Where all but one loser will receive a gilded Chris."
(Confessional)
Gwen: The gilded Chris? What a narcissist. Don't get me wrong I still want one.
Static
"You done now dude?" Geoff asked.
"I have an eject button and I will use it." Chris warned.
"Please continue." The party dude said.
Chris continued to drive, this time past a space set, on the moon with a black sky background and blue sphere likely to represent earth. Harold looked at it in amazement. "Is this a dream?" He asked.
Ellody pinched herself. "No. I can experience pain."
"Ellody is right, it's not a dream, but you may soon wish it was." Chris told them. The host continued to drive the cart forward, this time into a huge city set with life sized buildings. "A few months ago, this lot was home to a high budget monster movie. Until the star began experiencing some, umm, technical difficulties?"
"Did they have a mental breakdown of some kind?" Crimson asked, seeming almost excited.
"Actually the star wasn't an actor. It was an animatronic monster!" Chris declared. Several buildings are shown as dramatic stings play in the background. They all have huge bites taken out of them. A fake tree also has a huge bite in it.
"What happened to it?" Gwen asked.
(Confessional)
Gwen: In retrospect I probably shouldn't have asked that question.
Static
A roar loud enough to shake the scenery resounded. Duncan, Kitty, and Geoff can be seen plugging their ears, but it is likely all of the castmates are doing the same. "Come one dudes. He's yanking our chain!" Duncan told his friends. The cart continued forward as loud stomping sounds shook the ground. Out of nowhere a giant green lizard like tail with orange spikes hit into a tower. Chris slammed on the brakes.
"Whoa!" Trent said.
"Dude!" Geoff agreed.
"What is that!?" Amy cried out.
All the contestants are shown looking to either side of the tower that just fell. "Since we're on a film lot." The contestants move back into the cart as Chris continues, the city set shown in all its glory. "This season's challenges will be based on movie genres. The monster movie!" Chris chuckled and made a stupid face. "Duh."
The animatronic monster walked through the shot revealing more of its giant lizard body, specifically part of its hands, stomach, and tail. It was very godzilla like. The contestants gasped. "For your first challenge," Chris continued. "Everyone must get from here to the cast trailers while our state-of-the-art monster prevents your every move." He pointed off screen. "Cher has kindly offered to control the beast."
Cher is shown in a tent with three screens in front of him. He is wearing a mocap suit as he stomps with his hands raised. Back with Chris he continues. "And action!" No one moved as a cricket sound effect played in the background. "Uhh, that means go." Chris told them.
Instantly everyone began to push and fight against each other in an attempt to exit the cart first. Trent threw Amy out of the way, then Harold hit him with a karate chop, knocking him over. He paid for it when Duncan picked him up and threw him behind. "Move it or lose it!" The punk said.
Harold flew past Chris several feet behind the cart. "This is gonna be a long season." The host complained as Harold ran past him to catch up with the others.
/
The film lot is shown from a distance as the focus shifts inward. A flash transition later reveals that the contestants are running over a beach set with a sunset backdrop, sand, sandcastle, and a few umbrellas. We watch as the monster stomps forward, crushing the sandcastle and leaving behind a giant footprint.
Ella and Amy are shown running across the beach. Ella looks back at the monster. "Should we try to talk to it?" She asked.
"Ella, it's not an animal! It's a machine being controlled by Chef! I don't think talking to it will help!" Amy snapped. They continued to run forward only for the monster's giant clawed hand to loom over them.
"Can we try talking now?" Ella gulped. The monster grabbed the two girls before they could do anything.
"Let go of us you dumb monster!" Amy demanded, pounding at the hand clutching them.
"I don't think that's going to help either." Ella sighed. The monster walked them over an orange bouncy castle and dropped them into it. They bounced up a few times. Ella laughed as Amy folded her arms, watching with an unamused stare.
(Confessional)
Amy: Ugh. First challenge and first people out. Bet Trent's laughing it up with Samey right now! At least I've got Ella. I can't imagine how awful competing on this show without her would be.
Static
/
Trent and Sammy are shown running down the beach, as the monster crawls around the dunes, its back and tail the only things visible. The focus shifts back to the couple as they skid to a stop. "How do we find the trailers?" Sammy asked.
Alejandro ran past. "I know not, but might I suggest you continue to run?"
Amber was right behind him, with Topher following. "Yeah, staying put is probably a bad idea!"
Sammy and Trent nodded and ran after them. Behind them Duncan and Gwen are also running. "Hey pasty, you seen Geoff or Kit Kat?"
"No, maybe they already got captured?" Gwen suggested.
(confessional)
Kitty: We probably should have let Duncan know our plan to hide in the confessional so the monster doesn't find us.
Geoff: Yeah, but we were working on adrenaline babe. It's not like we meant to leave without saying anything. We just didn't think to.
Kitty: Besides Duncan's a tough guy. He can handle it. Probably.
Static
/
A two story life sized brown building with a red and white striped awning is in view. The focus shifted down to show Gwen, and Duncan running past. Gwen smirked. "This challenge isn't so bad. What? No explosions, no burning buildings, no bears? I thought this show was supposed to be a challenge."
"Maybe Chris spent the season's budget on hair gel." Duncan snarked back.
In a moment so perfectly timed the staff must have been waiting for it, a large white manor exploded, a simple brown house was burnt to cinder, and the bear inside it roared at them. The bear began to chase after the two, who ran away screaming.
In the tent with the screens Chris turned to Chef, who is still in the mocap suit. "I thought the bear was tranquizled and returned to it's handler?"
"Had one more day left on its contract." Chef replied.
"Nice." The host commented.
/
Inside the confessional Geoff and Kitty are interrupted by a giant clawed monster hand reaching in and grabbing them. The rest of its arm is shown as it begins to walk off with them.
"I guess the confessional wasn't the best hiding spot." Kitty admitted.
"At least we're together babe." Geoff replied as dramatic music mounted in the background. The monster let go and they fell through the air. "I love you!"
"Me too!" Kitty replied, snapping a selfie of the two of them falling quickly. They landed in the bouncy castle and bounced up a couple times.
Ellody runs past the castle on to the beach set, where she runs into Harold hiding very obviously in a green and white striped beach umbrella.
She grabs him out. "Harold, if we want to avoid capture we must move quickly!" She told him as the two began to run.
"If I wanted to, I could run as fast as a prong horned antelope." Harold bragged. "It's-"
"The fastest land mammal other than the cheetah! It's rare I meet another teenager with that kind of knowledge!" Ellody replied excitedly.
"I didn't think you'd know that." Harold smiled. A loud roar knocked the two nerds back, sending them into the sand deeply enough to make holes shaped like them. The monster's giant clawed hand picked them up off the sand. Once again the entire arm is shown as it moves to drop them.
"How much do you think this monster cost? It seems sophisticated enough to be well out of budget." Ellody asked.
Before Harold could answer, the two of them were dropped into the bouncy castle.
/
Back on the beach set, Amber, Alejandro and Topher come to a stop as they stare ahead in shock. They barely manage to dodge the monster's giant tail as it swung around. Noah and Crimson are shown running down the beach past the trio running in the opposite direction. Noah's eyes widened in surprise, but this was not enough as the monster's hand grabbed the couple. It lifted them up as dramatic music played, before the monster held it in front of it's red eye. It widened as the music shifted to a creepier theme. Crimson stared into the eye as if daring the monster to attack her.
In the tent Chef looks taken aback "That girl ain't right."
(Confessional)
Noah: Crimson is the only person I know who can get captured by an animatronic monster and have basically no reaction other than locking eyes to assert dominance. It's really attractive actually.
Static
The monster dropped the two deadpan teens into the bouncy castle. Crimson landed first and caught Noah before he could hit the floor. "Thanks." He smirked.
"I guess we know who takes charge in this relationship." Amy heckled.
"And I'm okay with that." Noah said looking at Crimson with the barest hint of a smile,
/
Sammy and Trent are running through the warehouse section of the lot when a monster roar sends their hair flying back. They try to run away but the monster picks them up. "Well at least I beat Amy." Sammy smiled.
"And at least we got caught together." Trent smiled back.
The monster hand dropped the two of them into the bouncy castle. Amy smirked. "I knew you'd get caught, Samey!:
"Says the first person caught." Sammy smirked. Amy had no retort.
/
Alejandro, Amber, Topher, and Scott are all running through the city set again as the monster stomps after them. It corners them in between a barbershop and a two story brown building. Alejandro glances to the brown building on his left. "Come, we are not caught yet!"
(Confessional)
Amber: And that's one of the many reasons I like Alejandro. Even when cornered he always has some plan to get out of it.
Static
Alejandro grabs Amber's hand and leads the four of them through the door. Unsurprisingly this merely leads them behind the set. Alejandro looks around for any kind of escape, only to find none. "I was hoping this part of the set would lead to a warehouse." He swears in Spanish.
(Confessional)
Amber: Of course those plans aren't infallible.
Static
The monster roared as it's claw reached over the set and grabbed the four of them at once. The now expected sight of the monster's clawed hand as it took them back to the bouncy castle.
"Nice going Al." Scott snarked.
"Oh like you had a better idea." Amber defended.
The monster let them go and all four are shown falling through the air. Alejandro grabs Amber's arm and braces for impact. A nearby Topher narrows his eyes at this. They land in the bouncy castle and bounce back up.
Back at the behind set area the four had just been caught at Gwen and Duncan pop up from behind a fake red car. "Losers." Duncan laughed.
"Good thing we thought quickly." Gwen smiled.
A large green finger poked Duncan in the back. His eyes widened in horror as the monster's face is finally shown., leering over the two of them. It had a giant mouth of razor sharp yellow teeth, two huge red eyes, and three orange fins, one on top of the monster's head, and the other two to either side. Contrasted to the rest of the body, the head was less lizard in appearance and more reminiscent of a sea monster.
It roared at them, and reached out. "Duncan!" Gwen exclaimed pushing him out of the way, thus resulting in only her being taken. Duncan stared after her in shock. Then his eyes narrowed in determination. "Don't worry Pasty, I'll find those trailers." He ran back out onto the set of the city street and began to head down the 'road.' It wasn't long before Chef returned. The shadow of the monster loomed over him. Unlike the first time, he stared the monster down.
"Oh Yeah?! You wanna go?! Then let's rumble!" Duncan said.
Inside the tent with Chef in the mocap suit the cook rolled his eyes. "Kid needs to learn when he's beaten."
The giant monster claw reached down and grabbed Duncan, but the punk pulled out his pocket knife. "No monster is gonna take me down!" With those words he used all his strength and body weight to stab the monster in the arm. it broke though, causing the arm to short out. Duncan retrieved his knife and jumped down to the ground.
(Confessional)
Duncan: This is why I always carry a knife on me. You never know when you'll need one, cutting rope, carving skulls into things, taking down giant animatronic monsters…
Static
In the tent we can see Chef struggling to make the claw pick up Duncan again, but the suit shorts out, and we return to Duncan being picked up the the claw as it shorted out over there as well. Duncan looked smug.
"Nice try, but it's gonna take more than that to bring me down!" Duncan laughed. "Not so tough now are you?!"
"Great work Duncan." Chris said as he arrived. "But you know, you still gotta find those cast trailers."
"No problem."
/
It is still daylight when Chef is shown passing the bouncy castle in his mocap suit. Duncan arrives shortly afterwards. "It's about time!" Amy complained.
"It could be worse, Noah could have been the last one standing, then we'd have spent the night in here while he walked three city blocks." Scott chuckled.
"It's funny you think I care." Noah rolled his eyes.
Duncan cut a hole in the bottom of the bouncy castle and it deflated allowing the rest of the cast to crawl out from under it. Alejandro, remembering Scott's earlier comment, turned to him with a smirk. "You carry a knife for whittling. Why didn't you think of that?"
"Shut up Al." Scott huffed, unable to counter.
The ground started to shake as the contestants stood there. Gwen turned to Duncan. "I thought you took the monster out of commission?"
"Must have fixed it." Duncan shrugged. At that moment the giant foot of the monster crushed the small white trailer to their right, with a maroon striped awning.
"Shouldn't Chef get in trouble for that?" Sammy asked.
"Since when has Chris cared about property damage?" Noah pointed out.
Chris exited the small white trailer to their left with an orange striped awning. ""Woah." He said in surprised as the flattened trailer was shown. "Am I ever glad I chose to wait in that trailer."
"You were only in there for about twenty minutes, don't act like you waited that long." Amber rolled her eyes.
"It looks like you all made it." Chris continued ignoring Amber completely. "Guess I lose the bet. That was just a warm up. Good news is, your next challenge is a reward." Almost everyone cheered, the exception being Crimson, who remained deadpan. "It will be the boys against the girls with the winner getting the first pick of the trailers where you'll be living for the next forty-two days. You will have your choice of trailer A," Chris said gesturing to the left trailer with the orange awning. "Or trailer…yeesh." He cringed as the flattened trailer was shown again. "Off to the crafts and service tent!"
(Confessional)
Noah: Another season of the slop Chef calls cooking. Yippie.
Static
Amy: You know at this rate eating will be more of a challenge than the actual challenges.
Static
Gwen: Can't be worse then what I was given as an intern.
Static
/
An angelic chord played as the crafts and service tent is shown. Inside the focus moves over a table of perfect food. Triangular sandwiches, salad, rolls, rib eye steaks, freshly cut pineapple, an assortment of cheeses, watermelon, a delicious looking cake, and several pies. "Wow what a spread!" Kitty cheered.
"Dude this chow looks like something out of a commercial." Geoff added.
"Careful, last time Chris presented us with a feast it was a trick." Noah pointed out.
"Not surprising you think it's commercial levels of good to look at, because it's all fake." Chris explained.
"Makes sense, actual food rarely looks this appetizing." Ellody noted.
"It's all props made from foam core, silicone, sawdust and wax." Chris said gesturing towards Chef holding a container of glue with a brush inside and a saw. "Your challenge? To find a key within this faux buffet by looking in the food. Boys will take the left side of the table, girls you take the right."
The boys lined up on one side of the table, while the girls lined up on the opposite side. Chris held up a finger. "And action!"
A rock tune played as the focus moved over the boys, each searching a different prop. Duncan was tearing apart several steaks, Trent ripped into one of the pies, Harold was looking through the pineapple, Geoff was pouring out a pitcher of water, Noah was ripping up rolls one by one, Alejandro and Topher were ripping up cheese, and Scott was, actually eating one of the small oranges?
Meanwhile on the girl's side Amy was throwing salad out of a bowl, Sammy was ripping up potatoes, Kitty was looking in the watermelon, Amber was tearing up the cake, Gwen was tearing into a turkey, Ella was pulling apart cinnamon buns, Ellody was systematically taking apart the sandwiches, and Crimson was sticking her hand into one of the pies.
"So how long do you think it'll take them to find the key?" Chris asked.
"At this rate, any moment now." Chef shrugged. As though on cue Crimson deadpanned. "I found something." She pulled the key out of the key she was looking in.
The girls cheered.
(Confessional)
Kitty: Alright Crimson! Way to win it!
Static
Sammy: You know, Crimson scares me, but maybe she's actually nice? It's hard to tell.
Static
Amy: Any one of us could do that you know. Crimson just got lucky.
Static
Crimson: (Slowly blinks)
Static
Noah: I can't even be mad. Crimson has her own ways of doing things and it seems to work out for her most of the time.
Static
"Congratulations Crimson, sine you're the winner, you get first pick of the trailers." Chris declared.
"Have fun sleeping in the pancake boys." Amy smirked.
/
Everyone except Chef stood before the two trailers. Crimson looked them over. "I'll take trailer A." The girls cheered. "As much as I want to sleep in what is basically a metal coffin, I want to be alone when I do it."
The girls stopped cheering when the monster's foot crushed the other one. Chris and Chef are shown in the tent, where Chef is controlling the mocap suit again. Chris laughs.
(Confessional)
Topher: Classic Chris, bring everyone's hopes up before crushing them. (He laughs)
Static
Chef is shown briefly on one of the trailers hammering the last piece in. The focus moves outward to show both trailers are now fixed, and Chris is driving past everyone in a golf cart. "Ok everyone get a good night's sleep, because you've got a seriously early wake up call. Call time is six A.M." The host laughed. "Sleep quickly."
/
In the boys cabin people are choosing bunks. "I'll take a bottom," Geoff said. "Duncan?"
"I'll take the top." The delinquent agreed.
"Why don't we bunk together Alejandro? I'll take the bottom. You can have the top." Topher offered.
"Sounds fine to me amigo." Alejandro said.
Harold looked towards Noah hopefully, he lifted a finger. Noah ran over to Trent. "I'll take whatever bunk you want, just save me from bunking with Harold."
Trent chuckled. "Well I slept on the bottom last time. So why don't you take the top again."
Harold put his finger down with a sigh. Scott's hand came down on his shoulder. "Looks like it's you and me nerd." Harold gulped.
/
In the girl's trailer things weren't going quite as smoothly. "I want the bed closest to the door." Amy demanded.
"And why should you get first pick?" Gwen asked.
"I know you're new around here, I'm pretty much the one in charge." Amy bragged.
"I've seen season one. No one listens to you but Ella." Gwen smirked.
"Girls, must we fight?" Ella asked.
"Chris did say we must wake at six A.M. If we argue we will not have the proper amount of sleep." Ellody pointed out.
Amy climbed onto the top bunk of the bed she wanted. "Ella you take the bottom. I mean if you want."
"Of course." Ella smiled taking the bottom bunk.
Sammy sighed. "We can bunk together." Amber suggested. Breaking the sweet twin from her negative thoughts. "You can have whatever bunk you want. I literally don't care. Just to be clear I mean literally, literally not figuratively." She sighed. "The fact that english language has reached the point where I have to specify that is sad."
Sammy smiled. "I'll take the top then."
Gwen turned to Crimson. "So you want top or bottom bunk?" The stoic goth didn't answer. "I guess you don't care. I'll take the top then." Crimson nodded her agreement and they climbed in bed.
"I guess that leaves us Ellody. You mind if I take the top bunk?" Kitty asked.
"I don't mind. Both bunks have dangers attached to them." Ellody said.
"Okay?" With that the last two girls claimed their beds.

Outside the trailers Chris poked his head out. "Shh." He said with a finger to his lips. "They're sleeping." A cruel grin too his face as he pulled out his usual red megaphone, a little feedback indicating he had turned it on. "This is your five A.M. wake up call!" Both trailers are shown as the contestants groaned loudly. "I'm only kidding. You can sleep. For now." He waited a few seconds before pointing the megaphone in the direction of the boys' trailer and setting off the air horn attached to the megaphone. More complaining could be heard.
Chris turned to the audience. "That's a wrap for day one. Will Amy drive everyone crazy? Can Harold get a break from anyone that isn't Ellody? Who knows what drama faces our cast?" The host chuckled. "Well I do, but I ain't telling. See you next time on another thrilling episode, of Total. Drama. Action."
A/N: Much like the first episode of Action, not much of substance happened. I still think it's a fun read. Some plot points showed up though. See you next time.
