Review time!
AlienGhostWizard14: Thanks! Zeke's actually staying fully human in this, but I wanted to sneak some references to the canon in there.
Gucci Mane LaFlare: Thanks! I knew instantly I'd want to do an original challenge for the Halloween episode (either that or I'd adapt "Hook, Line, and Screamer").
Lara2244: Thanks! Fun fact: Zeke is the first person from the original generation (Jazz was seen in Island but never competed, so she doesn't count) to be eliminated. I don't care too much for the Ice Dancers, either, but since they're the kind of people Chris likes they're going to be sticking around for quite some time.
StarHeart Specials: Nope! Zeke is staying 100% normal if not a little wiser!
AN: The Empty Soldier is the TD version of Hollow Knight.
Mickey Hart, The Unluckier Adversity Twin.
"AAAAH!" Mickey shrieked as the bison chased him.
Jasmine "Jazz" O'Riley, The Dramateur.
"Sugar, they've got a clear advantage over us with B. There's no way we could've topped them," Jazz replied curtly. "Besides, they had no choice. That thing's so big they needed to give it extra support."
Max Bennett, The Not-so Evil Villain.
"Pah, people are just too touchy," Max scoffed.
Marion "Mary" Morris, The Lax Genius.
"The first one is Papilio glaucus, the eastern tiger swallowtail," Mary began. "The second..." she froze. "Shoot, I don't know it!"
Dwayne "Junior" Terrot, Jr., The Ambitious Freshman.
"...I don't really understand that, but I think I might eventually," Junior replied. "See ya!"
Ezekiel "Zeke" Calhoun, The Homeschooled Boy.
Zeke was slammed into the wall. "AAAAAAAAH, EH!" He peeled off and collapsed to the ground.
The next six contestants who've been eliminated have returned to their school. But while their ex-teammates do their schoolwork–
Lightning tripped Cameron as the latter went to sharpen his pencil.
–we follow up on the losers. Where are they now? What are they up to? And how will the father/son reunion go? This.
Is.
Aftermath: Total Drama Edition.
Theme music
The screen opened and the viewer saw two clips, side-by-side, of Mickey and Jazz walking, shot from the front view. Mickey was on the left, Jazz on the right. The clips then wiped up to show Max and Mary in the same setup. It happened again, revealing Junior and Zeke. Then the clips wiped up entirely.
Kelly, Dwayne, and Gerry waved to the camera. Suddenly, a flat panel fell from the ceiling on top of them, crushing them underneath. Blaineley was sitting on the panel and waved to the camera.
A spotlight focused on a curtain. Two interns shakily held up a sign reading TOTAL DRAMA AFTERMATH III: THOUGHTS ABOUT NEMMA. Then they fell over, the sign falling on top of them.
"Welcome to Total Drama's third aftermath!" Blaineley said to the camera. "Our next six eliminated contestants will be answering our questions from our judge's panel, and there will be some other fun stuff too! You already know the judges, so let's just get to it!"
"And to our Mexican viewers, happy Day of the Dead!" Dwayne added.
"I thought it was three days," Kelly pondered.
"It is, the second day's just the big one," Gerry explained.
"And I don't care!" Blaineley snapped at them. Resuming her happy expression, she said "Let's meet our first eliminated contestant. One of two sets of identical twins on the show – Mickey!"
Mickey timidly got onstage, but as soon as he sat down the chair gave out from under him.
"Ooh!" Dwayne winced. "Is that why you've got a helmet on all the time?"
"Yeah, because I'm usually – oof – a lot more unlucky than Jay is." Mickey stood up and Phil replaced the chair for him. "Thanks Phil."
"Hey, just because I'm here doesn't mean my intern duties don't stop," Phil replied. "Unfortunately..."
"Mickey, I read the discord and apparently a lot of people ship you with Kitty," Kelly said. "Do you?"
"No, not really. Kitty's too bold and adventurous for me. I'd want to meet a girl who's shyer and less energetic."
"The last few challenges were really tough," Gerry said. "If you hadn't been eliminated when you were, which of the ones after it do you think you'd fail at?"
"Definitely the tightrope one! I get why DJ was so afraid of it."
"CHRIS DO YOU SERIOUSLY WANT US TO DIE?!" DJ shrieked.
Mickey got up and joined the Peanut Gallery. "Our next contestant's been a part of the Pahkitew Players for so long she needs no introduction – Jazz!" Jazz walked onstage.
"Leshawna said you're her best friend," Dwayne said. "If you don't mind me asking, how long have you two known each other?"
"Since third grade," Jazz said.
"How's your leg?" Kelly asked.
"It's better than it was. Nothing too bad, just a few bruises and a pulled muscle."
"I know that feeling," Gerry concurred. "I've had more tennis elbows than I have arms. Anyway, what effect do you think Sugar rigging the votes to get you out will have on your friends?"
"Well, I've always been good at keeping them from going too nuts, and I think they're already starting to," Jazz said.
"Well OF COURSE we did poorly!" Stephanie griped. "We got stuck with something most of us barely even know! And now we've got AMY of all people, as in the person who didn't even BOTHER helping us, trying to beat the next part!" She sighed. "I try not to be competitive like this, but sometimes I think it's more than a little justified!...I wish Jazz was here, because she's really good at calming people down in times like this. Stupid Sugar..."
"And we all know Leshawna beat Sugar up herself."
"CHRIS, YOU'RE NEXT!" Leshawna bellowed. She'd finished roughing up Sugar, who had a few cuts and a black eye, while Leshawna didn't even have her hair messed up.
"Chris didn't get hurt, by the way!" Blaineley announced. "He did the brave thing and climbed the nearest tree. Leshawna was too big to come after him, so she left him alone."
"Is that a fat joke about my cousin?" Leshaniqua growled.
Blaineley gulped. "A-and now let's get on to our favorite technicolor-haired techie – Max!"
Rather than walk onstage, Max teleported on. "Oh joy, it worked without scrambling my atoms," Max said.
"Max, you say you're evil, but you aren't really. Care to explain?" Dwayne asked.
"I look up to the villains in comic books, foolish mortal! They're less...one-dimensional than the heroes. Except Catman, he's alright. What I admire most about the villains is their drive to do what they want! I feel they'd get more acceptance in their backstories if public opinion was different. Remember, villains are never born; they're made."
"He's right, dudes," Rock agreed.
"Max, you said you and Scarlett met at a science fair. Care to expand on that?" Kelly asked.
"Of course. Scarlett and I met because we both had similar experiments regarding genetic modification. I wanted to make a blue apple, she was trying to make a mouse that actually could digest lactose. Innocent enough, but the judge disqualified both of us simply because he thought it was 'unethical'."
"What did you do when he said that?" Gerry asked.
"I told him his face was unethical." The Peanut Gallery laughed. "He was really angry but Scarlett was impressed by my gumption, and my relationship with her expanded from there."
Max left the stage and sat next to Mickey and Jazz. "You two. Meet me at City Hall after school today. I have important information for both of you."
"Uh...sure thing, dude," Jazz said, confused.
Blaineley didn't even notice their conversation. "Speaking of love, our next contestant was eliminated the day of my anniversary – Mary!" Mary came onstage.
"Mary, you were eliminated but handle being away from Lorenzo better than Ellody did for Chet. Why is that?" Dwayne asked.
"A simple difference in disposition," Mary replied honestly.
"While we're on that subject, how did the two of you meet?" Kelly asked.
"Did you mean Ellody or Lorenzo? It doesn't matter, I'll do both. Lorenzo and I met in fourth grade and our love life followed the whole 'best-friends-become-a-couple' thing. Ellody and I tied for first in the eighth grade spelling bee and have been close ever since. More than I could say for our boyfriends at the time, but they've come a long way since then."
"Dude! The way you helped the Adversity Twins? Awesome!" Chet complimented Lorenzo once everyone had reunited with their teams and making their way back to the cabins
"Thanks! I think our win makes up for your failure."
The two fist-bumped. "Maybe we're not such bad teammates after all," Chet said.
"We can try being friends. I mean, what do we have to lose?"
"So much for them being like us, but dudes," Sammy remarked to Amy.
"Again, Samey, shut up."
"Yeah! Lorenzo's awesome!" Chet shouted from the audience.
"And speaking of couples, which of the four that came together during the challenge you were eliminated in surprised you the most?" Gerry asked.
"Katie and Sadie always had that closer-than-normal-friends bond, so not them. Noah and Emma were too obviously going to synergize, as were DJ and Dawn. Honestly, I'm surprised Leshawna was so open to accepting Harold right off the bat, but not that she wanted to put it on hold."
"I think she'd like to know him better before she can safely say she likes him," Leshaniqua explained.
"Good point!" Mary agreed, getting up to leave.
"On the subject of points, our youngest competitor on the island didn't get his because he was afraid of a little spider – Junior!"
"Hey! Don't speak about my son that way!" Dwayne scolded.
"Dad, please, I can handle it. I'm fourteen, I'm not a little kid anymore," Junior deadpanned as he took his seat.
Dwayne chuckled nervously. "Sorry kiddo. How'd you like the show?"
"It was alright. Could've done with less of Chris being a butthead though."
"Don't speak about my husband that way!" Blaineley exclaimed.
"When it's him, it's funnier," Leonard muttered.
"Junior, it was said you were eliminated because of your lone wolf attitude," Kelly said. "Do you think that's true?"
"Yeah. I didn't bother getting to know most of the others 'cuz they're all older than me. Rodney was rarely ever on my team, and he's definitely not in any of my classes. Really, Kitty was the only one I talked to a lot, and I gotta say I definitely like her."
"If you could design any future challenge, what would it be?" Gerry asked.
"I always thought the VR challenges were really cool, so I'd have one of those. Maybe we could do one themed on my favorite video game, The Empty Soldier."
Confessional – Blaineley.
"I should totally do that!" Blaineley exclaimed. She quickly got up and left.
However, Don was still there, and now knowing Blaineley never bothered to watch the Aftermaths, he got up and addressed the audience himself. "Typical Blaineley. She and Chris are so lazy any good idea they hear they immediately take as their own."
"And now for our final contestant, who's by far the newest to the district – Zeke!"
"Check it!" Zeke said confidently as he took his seat.
"How are you handling elimination?" Dwayne asked.
"It's noot too foon bein' oot soo early, eh," Zeke said. "Boot Jo said I'd be oot eighth and it took me anoother ten to get vooted oof. Soo I'm glad aboot that."
"Wow, that new kid is such a loser," Jo scoffed. "I give him five more challenges until he's out."
"Could you please drop the accent? You're giving Canada a bad name," Blaineley groaned.
"This is joost how I speak," Zeke growled.
"Your fear that we saw in the phobias challenge was...unusual. Would you like to explain more?" Kelly asked.
"Yes ma'am. Me greatest fear's turnin' intoo a moonster, losin' me mind and becoomin' an animal," Zeke explained. "Boot I'm glad thas not goona happen in real life."
"Are there any talents you would've liked to use in future challenges? I think we had some indication you were into archery," Gerry said.
Zeke valiantly fired off arrows from a quiver he'd spawned with, but Courtney easily struck him down with her post, before taking out Tom as well.
"Yeah, I've doone it since I was eight," Zeke confirmed. "Me mom used to be a foreign language teacher, so I coulda yoosed it in a Field Trip or somethin'. I can speak English, French, Spanish, Russian, Arabic, Mandarin Chinese, Cantonese Chinese, and Italian."
"Wow!" Kelly said, impressed. "Eight languages."
"Yeah, me mom taught ambassadors."
"Hey Zeke, we totally missed out on the rewards from yesterday. Can you help us with that?" Staci asked.
"Doon't woorry, I brought candy for all of oos." Zeke took off his hat, revealing he'd stashed several boxes of Mike and Ike's under it before he'd left. "I didn't knoo what you'd all like, but there were a lot oof these."
"Yeah, they were really cheap that day," Blaineley admitted as Zeke went to the audience and distributed them to his fellow eliminees, making sure everyone got a box. "But you'll need to save those for after the Aftermath!" She turned to the camera. "What do I have in store? Find out after these messages."
Total Trivia: Noah listed the most populated cities in each US state (and Washington, DC, the only city in the District of Columbia) in Episode 16. Of the most-populated cities in the five US unincorporated territories, which as of 2017 has the greatest number of people?
A. Pago Pago, American Samoa
B. Dededo, Guam
C. Saipan, Northern Mariana Islands
D. San Juan, Puerto Rico
E. Charlotte Amalie, US Virgin Islands
Do da do da doo. Commercial break!
Total Trivia: The correct answer is, of course, San Juan, Puerto Rico, which had a population of 355,074 people as of 2015.
"And we're back!" Blaineley announced. "Here in Aftermath, our eliminated contestants are going to compete in challenges themselves. The team with the most points at the end will get to send one of the teams in the next episode of the show an advantage!" Blaineley had six burlap bags that, after assembling the teams, she threw at them.
"Okay, for our first team I want Staci, Dakota, and Mickey. You will be the Godly Grains!" Their bag had an orange logo. The logo consisted of a male loaf of bread with an excited face, a bowtie pasta as a bowtie, wings made of macaroni, and a donut for a halo.
"Next, Leonard, Phil, and Jazz. You guys are the Vile Vegetables!" Their bag had a green logo. It was a Jolly Roger with a turnip for the skull and a stalk of celery and a leaf of lettuce for the crossbones.
"Then it's Tammy, Ellody, and Max. Your team? The Fab Fruits!" Their bag had a red logo. A female apple puckered her lips, a necklace made of currants looping around the base and a leaf slicked over for hair.
"After that we've got Leshaniqua, Rock, and Mary for the Outrageous Oils!" Their logo was yellow. A bottle of olive freaked the heck out.
"For team number five, Spud, Rodney, and Junior will moonlight as the Delightful Dairy!" Their logo was blue. An ice cream cone cheered silently for something.
"Last of all we have Chet, Anne Maria, and Zeke for the Mighty Meats!" Their logo was purple. A steak with drumsticks for legs curled its biceps; its arms were made of clams.
"Is it safe to assume the next challenge is a culinary one?" Ellody asked.
"Yeah, but I'm not gonna spoil everything," Blaineley replied. "These bags are for loot, since yesterday was Halloween and we don't have the means of reconfiguring the last couple challenges for a school. You must find these six items, one for each of the previous six episodes, hidden around the school:
"A figurine of the mascot of the winning team in Episode 13, the Pink Pythons.
"A pump for a bicycle tire.
"A printout of a meme that was not seen in Episode 15, the Ermagerd girl.
"A bridal garter.
"An ugly wig, Sadie's greatest fear until Episode 17 happened.
"And a packet of Twizzlers, Chris' favorite non-chocolate candy. Once you have one of these items you CANNOT take another to disadvantage the other teams. You can't help each other either; remember, I have a lot of security cameras. Whichever team here gets the most within ten minutes wins the rest of their team back on the island an advantage in the next challenge. Now begin!"
Fab Fruits
"So where should we go first?" Tammy asked.
"Well, logically the figurine of the snake's going to be in one of the art rooms, because I doubt Blaineley would spend the money on making plastic models of an obscure colubrid," Ellody explained. "We have the time advantage because Max can teleport us, so we'll likely win this."
"Indeed!" Max agreed. He pulled out the pad and teleported them into the ceramics room.
Ellody picked up one of six hand-sized, coiled noodles made of pink clay. "Like I said. Now let's find the pump!" They teleported out.
"...What just happened?" a silver-haired, purple-eyed boy named Craig, who'd been quietly working in the background, asked.
Mighty Meats, Delightful Dairy
"Ayo! I got the gartah!" Anne Maria announced as she left the girl's bathroom, twirling the cloth on her finger.
"Good! Now let's move on before anyone sees!" Chet declared. His team left.
The Delightful Dairy poked their heads from behind their corner. Once their adversaries had left, they quickly removed themselves from hiding.
"Crap, we're on an all-guys team," Junior groaned.
"Could we dress like girls like they do in cartoons?" Rodney asked.
"No, that doesn't work in real life. Plus we'd offend the whole transgender community."
"You got that right!" a male-proportioned blonde girl with black eyes, Jessica, agreed as she exited the bathroom.
"Wait, Jessica, could you help us?" Rodney asked. He knew her because Jessica was one of the Geeks, and Cody had mentioned her during his explanation of the Code.
"Sorry dude, but I don't want to incur Blaineley's wrath. But I can tell you that there's one way a guy can get into a girl's bathroom without complaint."
"By holding the job that knows no true boundaries: the janitor!" Spud realized. "And I still have the costume from that concert Rock and I performed in at the union HQ!" He ripped off his clothes, revealing a janitor's uniform underneath it, and bravely entered the girl's bathroom.
"...How long was he wearing that?" Junior asked while Rodney scratched his head in confusion.
"Honestly, knowing Spud, he's probably worn it for a few weeks by now," Jessica giggled.
Vile Vegetables
"C'mon, you infernal machine! I command you to hasten it a little!" Leonard groaned. The licorice was found in a vending machine. A really old, crappy vending machine.
"Patience, Leonard," Jazz said. Then she gasped. "Hold on you guys, I'll be right back!"
"Do we have anything better to do?" Leonard asked.
"No, but she does. Look," Phil said. Leonard turned around. Mandy, a tough girl who was part of the Ice Dancers' clique, was viciously attacking Hillary, a much scrawnier Misfit. Jazz ran over, grabbed Mandy and shoved her aside. Mandy growled and the rest of the Ice Posse showed up; but then Hillary whistled and ALL of the Misfits came to her side. The Misfits outnumbered the Ice Posse seven to one, and the addition of the Crew, who came to support Jazz, made it eleven to one. With no possible chance of winning, the Ice Posse slunk away.
"Wow," Leonard said, mouth agape. The vending machine did something similar and finally dropped the Twizzlers.
"Sorry, but I couldn't stand seeing an innocent person being hurt like that," Jazz said, retrieving the Twizzlers. "Now let's go!"
The rest of the searches were uneventful. The pumps were found in the gym, the wigs in the counseling offices, and the memes in the library. Everyone returned to the theater.
"...and next thing you know, the olives are moldy!" Kelly was saying.
"You need something to do in your life, don't you?" Gerry asked.
"Of course! That's why I'm here!"
"And so are the kids!" Dwayne interrupted.
"Unfortunately," Blaineley growled, "everyone ended up finding everything. So the advantage, which would've been the option to switch out one of the meals with something else, doesn't go to anyone."
Confessional – Phil.
"Well, now that I know what the advantage would've been, I can figure out the challenge. It's probably going to be forcing the others to eat disgusting food unfit for bacteria. And knowing Chris, the option to switch out would be with something far worse. So all things considered, I'm glad we tied."
"Of course, for our most recent six, we still must do...The Trial by Lustblossom!" Once again, the same spray cannons emerged from the ceiling, and the female one did the deed.
"Eva, eh..." Zeke drooled.
"Kitty..." Junior sighed.
"Scarlett..." Max moaned.
"Only guys affected?" Jazz asked.
"Looks like it this time," Mary agreed. The male cannon sprayed the three and the boys returned to normal.
"I'm so gonna use that for blackmail!" Blaineley cackled evilly.
Confessional – Leshaniqua.
"Annnd there's more proof that our principal is a terrible person!" she griped. "Seriously, I'm pretty sure that's illegal!"
"But while the boys recover their dignity after revealing their crushes on international television [Zeke and Junior's pupils shrank when they realized this, while Max didn't budge], let's look at some of Total Drama's Funniest Moments!"
"We put the 'bang' back in 'bang-whiz'!"
Geoff rolled over a pseudo-mine and was blown into the air.
"Please keep all fetishes canon-compliant."
Immediately nauseated, Sierra and Topher opened the review tab on the story and threw up into it.
"Keep both eyes on the prize! And on your obstacles."
Courtney rolled her eyes as Taylor and Heather tried to keep each other from crossing the tire walk (despite both being on the same team), not paying attention to where she was going. She ended up getting hit in the face with a wooden pillar that was somehow able to fit inside the tire's hole.
"An Amy scorned is a terrifying thing indeed."
Amy's head inflated five times its original size and her teeth audibly slashed out. MacArthur suddenly leaned her head back with a spooked expression as her neck stretched out like Mr. Fantastic's.
"Whatever you do, don't take Tyler to KFC."
Tyler ran around screaming while being chased by...five baby chicks.
"There's born to be wild, and then there's Cody."
It was then that Cody remembered that he, unlike DJ, was completely naked, his crotch pixellated for the camera. Embarrassed, he tried to cover himself up with his hands.
"No, it's a carrot."
Is this an immunity idol? Leshawna's meme read as she pointed to a butterfly.
"Okay, it's official, October is Male Nudity Month."
Devin's underwear fell down, his pixellated manness exposed to the world.
"And now, for our final part of the Aftermath, we will have you guys root for someone still in the game," Blaineley said to the most-recently eliminated contestants. "At the end of the show, we'll tally the votes, and whoever has the most supporters will receive a prize! As for the person who gets the most votes against them by the end of the show, they will get a punishment of my own creation, befitting of Total Drama's least popular contestant. Go to the confessionals and vote now."
Confessional – Mickey.
"I want my brother to go far in the game," Mickey said. "Jay, I'm counting on you to overcome adversity."
Confessional – Jazz.
"Leshawna, of course," Jazz smirked. "She's got the right idea, and I give her and Harold my blessing. Go far you two!"
Confessional – Max.
"Scarlett's described as a prime mental threat," Max began, "and she's my prime mental threat."
Confessional – Mary.
"Lorenzo, of course. May your motivational skills earn you many friends."
Confessional – Junior.
"Sure, Devin's in an alliance with Alejandro, but only because Al's concealed his true nature," Junior said. "Devin's a really nice guy who wants what's best for his friends. So I hope he gets closer to winning than his boss. Hope this makes up for not talking to the upperclassmen too much."
Confessional – Zeke.
"Noah's a good alliance leader, and I hope he wins. For all Misfits everywhere," Zeke said.
"And that's the end of that," Blaineley said. "Tune in after Challenge 24 for the fourth Aftermath."
The bell rang.
"And that's the end of lunch. Now go back to class before I give you detention!"

After the Aftermath:
"Chris, did you see Max came across someone's code during the VR challenge?" Blaineley asked.
"I did. Don't know whose. Probably not one of ours though. Maybe it's Alejandro's, or Jacques or Josee's, or some politician neither of us have heard of," Chris said on the other side of the computer screen.
"Yeah, you're right. What could that schmuck find on us?"
Mickey and Jazz stood outside City Hall. "Now what?" Mickey asked.
"Glad you asked," Max announced, stepping out from behind a tree. "I called you here because under no circumstances are you to know where I live." He pulled out his teleportation console and transported the three to his home, which was old and worn.
"You live in a pretty rough neighborhood," Jazz said on noticing the desolation outside through a window.
"Yeah, that's my life. And I want to be FREE!"
"Won't your parents mind?" Mickey asked.
"They work long hours and are too tired to even think when they come home, by which point we'll be done. Did you see me find the codes in the episode I was eliminated in?"
"Mm-hm," Jazz nodded. "Whose was it? You made it sound like it was Alejandro's."
"It was not," Max replied. "His code was a dull red and felt of snakeskin. I couldn't say whose it was, but I remembered the exact sequence of ones and zeroes and used it to confirm my suspicions. Under no circumstances are you to divulge this information to anyone unless I say so."
He looked at them and ominously said something they hadn't been expecting to hear:
"I have some concerning information regarding Chris."
