Walls painted red and the floor a nice gold. This room had three couches, waiting to be sat on. From the wooden door that one enters the room, the doorknob twisted. After opening the door six entered the room. Two looked sorrowful with regret, two who did not care, and two with mixed feelings towards what happened.
The first person to enter the room was a short kind of lanky male that had chestnut brown hair. His hair was short, neatly styled, and bangs swept to one side, exactly the kind of hairstyle you expect little assistant types to have. He also had dark blue eyes and fair skin.
His clothes consist of a white dress shirt, blue sweater vest with a horizontal gray stripe, red bow tie, dark gray pants, black dress shoes, and red watch on his left wrist.
This was Fenton, one of the two who looked sorrowful.
"Cheer up Melissa, we made it to the final round," Fenton told one of the females entering the room, trying to bring positivity.
Melissa had long brown hair in a ponytail, blue eyes, tan skin, Asian features on her face, and a birthmark under her right eye in the shape of a heart. She was skinny and slightly muscular. She wore black sandals, blue ripped shorts, a regular black drawstring tank top, and a dark blue bra under the tank top.
"I'm still not happy with us being partnered together," Melissa said to Fenton as she crossed her arms. She sat on one of the couches. "I mean, what are the odds of us signing up to participate in the same game show? Especially with Georgia somehow here."
"That can be explained now since the show is on a commercial break if I must reveal," Georgia, the one Melissa mentioned said. Georgia was also one of the ones who looked sorrowful.
Georgia's hair was completely dyed in purple that goes down to her neck. She had fair skin and light blue eyes. Her height was five feet and six inches. Noticeably attractive due to her slight curves on her waist and more than average bust. She wore a white blouse, short black pants, black acrylic fingerless long glove arms, white gloves, and black fancy shoes.
"You should, considering I'm partnered up with a criminal for this game show," Spoke another female in a rude tone.
The lady that talked is Tamera. She had black straight hair that went down to her upper back. She had brown eyes, expresso color skin, almond-shaped head with snake eyes that she kept half-closed, stood tall at five feet and eight inches with a curvy body.
Her outfit consisted of gold hoop earrings, a sleeved cranberry-colored silky blouse with a black belt around her stomach, blue jeans, and black boots with heels.
"I came here for publicity and being partners with you can ruin my career," Tamera added before sitting down next to Melissa. She began filing her nails.
"All I know is that me being partnered with Knick is just asking for a choke in this final around," Buford, one of the six that entered said before closing the door.
Buford's long black dreadlocks were tied up in a ponytail at the top of his head. The sides and the back of his head were faded. He had green eye contacts for his eyes, caramel brown skin, and a chinstrap beard. He stood at six feet and three inches and has a bit of muscle to him.
He wore a green t-shirt with the number twenty on it, black shorts, white socks, and green sneakers. He also had a black wristband on his right wrist and a purple wristband on his left wrist.
"You have no idea how long I've been close to winning on game shows and fumbling hard at the last moments," Knick stated, walking to an empty couch to sit on.
"Yes, I do because I've seen how you played in Total Drama," Buford countered.
Knick had dark brown spikey hair, light brown eyes, and tan skin. He packed some muscles, but his outfit barely shows it. He wore an unbuttoned beige trench coat, with a murky green shirt under it, black jeans, and white shoes. He also had rectangular silver glasses.
"I assure you we will win the final round together," Knick said confidently. "Melissa and Fenton only managed to make it this far because the other teams sucked at the questions and neither Georgia nor Tamera are willingly able to play dirty."
"Which is surprising considering how you caused my elimination back in the last season of Total Drama," Tamera admitted while looking at Georgia. "Now tell me how in the world you're actually participating in this show."
"If you let me get all of the money from the prize sure," Georgia smiled at her.
"Seventy five percent goes to you," Tamera negotiated as she finished filing her nails.
"Deal," Georgia accepted instantly. "Surprised that sort of even worked."
"Like I said I'm in this for the publicity. Casey and I want to be the hosts of Total Drama's new revival season," Tamera gave her reasoning.
"Ah, right, I forgot Niu is the owner of the franchise now," Buford remembered.
"Is funny looking back on it. She helped JJ along with other contestants sue the show for everything it is worth and when the franchise became practically almost bankrupt, she bought it for a low price. Buck sure is a lucky guy," Knick commented.
"I heard North Pole Showdown is doing well," Melissa added.
"Apparently another season call Kandy Kerfuffle is in the works," Fenton joined in the conversation, giving a small smile to Melissa. Melissa looked the other way, causing Fenton to frown.
"Let's not waste time about what the rest of those who competed with us are doing," Buford stated plainly. "I want to hear about Georgia's story as well."
Everyone paid attention to Georgia.
"My beloved fans helped me pay partially my sentence and because I have been turning over a new leaf, I've been allowed to do some stuff outside of prison with permissions and other several factors," Georgia explained.
"If we win you plan on using the money to lower the payment of your sentence?" Tamera wondered.
"No, all earnings I get contribute right now to Lucy," Georgia answered as she put her hands on her hips. "After the incident the guilt was too much for me, so this is my way of paying her back. Do I know if she has forgiven me and or appreciates this? No clue, but at least I know is being sent to her."
"Is hard to believe that considering the way you acted on and before the show," Knick admitted, having doubts. "Especially since Lucy is your ex's girlfriend."
"None of you have to believe me. Once my sentence is done, I'll start looking for small roles in voice acting," Georgia shrugged.
"At least someone regrets her actions," Buford said, giving a glance to Knick.
"Is all part of the game. Deal with it," Knick stated bluntly.
"Oh, I've dealt with it a long time ago. I don't hold petty grudges like Jett," Buford assured to the journalist.
"My boyfriend doesn't hold grudges like that anymore," Melissa told Buford, defending Jett. "At least not how he used to on the show."
"You're still with him?" Buford was shocked.
"Yeah, he hasn't run away to get someone else?" Tamera decided to add fuel to the fire.
"Jett is doing well and that includes our relationship. Been helping him out with a book he wants to make," Melissa answered.
"Come on guys, this isn't Total Drama," Fenton wanted to help stop their questioning of Melissa's romance with Jett. "Stirring this old pot is unnecessary."
"Unnecessary like how you tricked Melissa in your season debut?" Knick smirked.
"Past me would say that was a smart tactic," Georgia added to the conversation.
"You fumbled big time," Buford said honestly.
"How did I end up losing to you is a mystery," Tamera pretended to wonder.
"Alright stop, enough about that," Fenton pleaded. "None of you have any idea how hard I've been trying to get over that and making it up to Melissa. I know messed up. I know it was awful of me to hurt her and I regret it fully. Jett should be proud he has someone as athletic, amazing, coordinated, and fun as Melissa. Also, Tamera and Buford, whether either of you like it or not I still played well that season."
"How hard have you been trying to make it up to me?" Melissa asked Fenton, curious to know.
"Since even before the start of Lights, Camera, Finale," Fenton began to explain. "I was going to be in that season, but I decided not to participate because I knew me being there would have gotten you distracted and made things worse. I knew you needed time to be away from me. Chris wanted me in for drama, but I didn't let it happen, even managing to get help from Niu to find a loophole in my contract so that I was not obligated to compete."
"Wait, you gave up on a chance to win more than a million dollars just for me?" Melissa realized.
Fenton nodded with a soft smile.
"Wow, that's… really incredible Fenton. If it wasn't for that I most likely wouldn't made it to the finale," Melissa smiled back, touched by Fenton doing that for her. "Thanks."
"Did say I wanted to make it up to you," Fenton repeated sincerely.
"Well, I shouldn't be holding onto a grudge in the first place," Melissa admitted. "Should have figured that when in your finale you were going to give me a portion of the money you could have one."
"Ugh, I'm going to puke at seeing you two make up," Knick admitted truthfully.
Buford smirked while Georgia and Tamera chuckled.
A knock on the door from outside was heard by the six. The door opened to reveal a buff staff member of the game show holding a clipboard.
"Get ready in your positions all of you, almost time to start the final round," The buff staff member informed.
Everyone minus Fenton and Melissa left the room. Fenton and Melissa looked at each other.
"Start from zero?" Fenton hoped, continuing to have a small smile on his face.
"Start from zero," Melissa agreed with a nod.
The two shared a fist bump before exiting out of the room. The buff staff member then closed the door.
