X-Treme Torture
POV. Third person
Chris is standing on the Dock of Shame, next to him is a familiar seagull with a skull pendant, "the last time on Total Drama Island. The remaining twelve campers had to survive Master Chief Hatchet's brutal boot camp," LeShawna sinks into the mud, "Cody's perverted luck kicked in once more when Heather fell on top of him," Cody helps her off the rope, " Duncan was the first to be sent to the brig by Major Harshines for disorderly conduct. Shocker," Duncan is sitting alone in the boat house, "Cody, who always seems to have good ideas, managed to sneak away from Courtney, go find the delinquent and together, steal the chef's snacks", they run through the woods full of food, "but the really incredible thing, is that they managed to awaken in Courtney a side never seen before hahahaha", Courtney eats candy until she vomits on the porch of the cabin, "in the end, thanks to a trap by Harold in revenge for Duncan's pranks, the delinquent was chosen to leave the island, thus cutting off any romance that was beginning to emerge between him and Courtney", they say goodbye and the seagull steals Duncan's gift.
Courtney appeared out of nowhere on the dock and tried to catch the seagull with a net, but it fled in time, "grrrrr".
"Oh, that was close," Chris said mockingly, "Which team will win the next extreme challenge? Find out this week, on TOTAL... DRAMA... ISLAND!"

POV. Cody
I woke up early in the morning, quite relaxed, without the tension of being vigilant of Duncan and Courtney, I was feeling great today.
Owen was still snoring in his bed, and I left the cabin to wait for Chris to show up with his helicopter announcing today's challenge.
I smiled a little at that, I remember watching this episode multiple times on the losers' beach, I don't need to remind you why, let's just say that the tape that came to us was already censored, and today I would have the opportunity to see the... live events. So I was excited.
I was walking through the camp when I saw Courtney on the dock with a net looking for Kevin, the seagull who stole her collar. Yes, I gave it a name, it's always out there so it seemed appropriate.
I got to the main hall, then I saw something you don't see every day (outside of this island at least), the bear that always roams the camp was stealing bags of marshmallows from the outside pantry of the chef's kitchen.
He stopped when he realized I was looking at him, I just waved my hand in greeting, I didn't know what else to do, I don't even know if it's the same bear from the hunting challenge, at least they didn't seem so scary to me anymore.
I could hear the sound of Chris's plane flying over the camp, I waved my hand to the bear to leave. He grabbed a few more bags of marshmallows and ran into the woods instead of the bath this time.
I went to meet the others who had already woken up and were coming out to see what it was all about. But I was quite far behind.
Which was the right decision when Chris flew too low, scaring everyone and blowing up the latrine on his way to destruction.
" Just flexing your muscles for today's...", I covered my ears, "EXTREME SPORTS CHALLENGE!", He shouted through the megaphone.
"Ogh, it's too early for this," Gwen complained tiredly.
"This week, you'll participate in three challenges. First up extreme sofa bed skydiving," he said again through the megaphone, "Contestants will plummet, uh, Skydive to a waiting sofa bed target below," the chef made a demonstration by jumping on the sofa bed, but it caught him as if it were a bear trap. Which generated some uneasy looks. "Of course, you'll be skydiving from five thousand feet. And using these," Chris tossed us a pair of rickety old parachutes, "our lucky contestants are... Owen and Sadie," the named opened their eyes wide.
I guess without the original participants, Chris just picked the ones he would find funnier to parachute... Either that or he just does it because Owen is afraid of heights.
"Oh dude, not this again," Owen said. Gwen patted him a few times on the back.
"The second challenge of the day is extreme rodeo moose riding, contestants will rodeo ride the great Canadian bucking moose for eight seconds or get hooved into a giant pile of socks from the lost-and-found," Does this place have lost and found?
We all saw the huge pile of dirty socks, it really sucked, "That stink pile ain't nothing but laundry day back home," Leshawna said.
"And the ones who will ride the moose at the rodeo are none other than two of the most charismatic guys at this camp, Geoff and Cody," oh my.
Look at the bored-looking moose in the corral, "don't worry bro, how bad can it be to ride a moose?", oh, you have no idea Geoff.
"He doesn't look too bucky to me, hi, beautiful", Owen said by the corral, but the moose hit him in the face with its hoof, in what I assume is his version of a punch.
"And the final challenge, extreme sea doo waterskiing. Contestants will waterski a racecourse grabbing as many flags as they can before crossing the finish line. While a member from the opposing team tries to deceive you,".
"How can we waterski without water?" asked Heather.
"It's really hard, check it out", Chef on a ski jumped across the dirt until he crashed into a tree, "Hahahahaha, awesome! Harold, you'll ski for Killer Bass", Chris said.
"Sweet!", said the nerd excitedly.
"And Lindsay for the Screaming Gophers".
"Kewl! I can model my new bikini", I'm glad for you and me (if I survive) Lindsay.
" Now for the cool swag! Whoever scores the most challenges gets bragging rights for the night, saves their butts from elimination and wins a tricked out Multi Massage Mobile Shower", the host told us.
The chef played the harp as we watched the surprising prize. This excited the women of both teams.
Confessional.
Cody
"I'm not personally interested in the shower prize, but I know the ladies on our team will be happy to take a decent bath for once," he said, making pistols with his fingers.
Courtney
"That shower has to be ours, you have no idea how horrible and unprivate the showers around here have been," she said with a shudder.
End of the confessional.
"Can it be?", Heather asked excitedly.
"Oh, it be", Chris replied.
" Ah, a shower? How 'bout something good?", Owen asked as he stuffed his face with marshmallows, poor choice of words again my friend.
"Listen to me, you marshmallow eating goof! We are going to win that shower if it's the last thing we do, got it?", Heather warned, Owen almost choked on what he was eating, Harold helped him spit out the marshmallow, which I caught before it hit Heather, surprising her.
"Gross", I said as I shook my hand with the chewed treat.
She smiled at me, "thanks Cody," she said as she gave me an unexpected hug, "You better not lose to Geoff, I want that mobile shower," she whispered in my ear, then pulled away and went on her way as if nothing had happened. I'm only going to do it because in a way you're going to reward me today.
"Oh, she definitely likes him," Gwen joked with LeShawna.
"Absolutely."
"Shut up!" Heather told them without compromising anything.
Confessional.
Heather
"If it wasn't such a good alibi, I would have told those two what I think of that idea... I don't like Cody, of course... I'm serious," she said, although that was quite a long pause.
End of the confessional.
"Okay gang," Chris said as he restarted the plane, "Chow for breaky, then report back in twenty minutes for the extreme sports challenge," then took off kicking up a heavy cloud of dust.

We were in the dining room having breakfast, Owen trying to fill up on the chef's food to forget about his fear of flying.
"Dude, that will only make you throw up when you're up there," I warned him worriedly, I don't want to end up under a shower of vomit.
"I can't help it, I seriously hate flying, and now I'm going to have to parachute out of the sky," he said as he put more food in his mouth.
"Well if you're scared, don't forget what you did during the first challenge, think that you're jumping into your happy place," I advised.
"Hmm... yes, I can try that," then burped a love letter he'd swallowed from the plate, which I caught.
"What's that Cody?" asked Bridgette, shit, I hoped I could hide it before they noticed.
"Uh, it seems to be a love letter," I said as I read what he said, I have to admit, Harold is a romantic when it comes to writing.
"Oh, maybe it's from Trent, he promised me he'd write at some point," Gwen said.
"No, maybe it's Geoff's, he's been being more romantic lately," Bridgette said.
Ok, time to finish this before it grows wings, "hey, ladies... This is not from either of them," I told them when I finished reading the letter.
"What?" they asked.
I nodded, "I've seen Trent's handwriting, and this one is different. Besides, this is written in haiku, and I know that none of them know how to make haikus," I told them, avoiding the fire and torches.
"So, isn't it for us?" asked Bri.
"I don't think so, it must be for someone else," I said.
"Do you know who it is for?" Gwen asked.
I shook my head, "Here you go, maybe you can find out," I gave them the letter, as long as they knew it wasn't for them, there was no harm in trying to find out who it was for.

POV. Bridgette
"Now, remember! Ground teams can wheelie the sofa beds wherever they want in order to help their comrade with the landing," Chris said from the plane.
We had returned to the starting location for the challenge, Sadie was too nervous to jump. Solving the mystery of the letter can wait.
"Guys, I don't think I can do this," Sadie said, scared and shaking.
"You'll be fine, you've got a parachute after all," I said, that didn't make her feel any better, "Right, Courtney?" I called my friend for support.
"Huh? yes, you'll be fine just put on sunscreen," but she was using a pair of binoculars to watch the birds and wasn't paying attention to us. I gave a loud sigh, this didn't look right.
"Good luck Sadie, don't leave too strong an impression when you fall," Heather said, she had drawn Sadie's silhouette on the floor with tape, as if it were a crime scene.
This scared her even more, "it's not funny Heather," I confronted her.
"Oh, of course it is," she sneered.
Confessional.
Bridgette
"I know it's wrong to hate people, but you don't know how much I hate her."
End of the confessional.
...
Sadie and Owen had left on the plane with Chris, we were trying to take our sofa bed to the beach where it was most visible.
"Come on Courtney, help us," Geoff said to Courtney who was distracted by seeing any seagull pass by, ok this has to stop.
"Courtney," I stood in front of her getting her attention at last, "listen, I know you want that pendant back, but we're in the middle of a challenge. Sadie is flying in the air right now waiting for us to catch her with this sofa bed, she could hurt herself if we don't help her," I tried to reason.
Courtney sighed, and then slapped both cheeks, "you're right, competition is what matters now," she replied.
Confessional.
Bridgette
"I was going to say that the most important thing was Sadie's life... But I finally got her on the same page that the rest of us, so I didn't say anything."
Courtney
"I promised Duncan that I was going to win this competition... the pendant can wait, he'll understand... right?" she asked doubtfully.
End of the confessional.

POV. Sadie
Owen and I were up in the sky flying over the island, I couldn't even see where the landing zone was!
"AHHHHHHHHH! I'M GOING TO DIE!" Owen was screaming in panic due to his fear of flying, and that was scaring me more.
"Owen!" slapped, I slapped him in the face to bring him to his senses, I remember Katie always doing it for me when I panicked, oh how I miss you Katie, No! Focus, your team is counting on you Sadie.
"Uff, ok, okay, I think I'm good now, thanks Sadie."
"It's a problem," he said.
We both peeked through the open door, it was too high, I couldn't see where either team was.
"If you could just fill these out," Chris told us with a couple of forms.
"What's that?" asked Owen.
"These are organ donation forms, I have this cool cannibal challenge I wanna pitch to the producers, and this'll go a long way toward budgeting free props", He is just saying this to scare us right? "Here comes the drop, boys".

We both tried to see our teams, but we didn't find anything, "everything will be fine Sadie, just take the advice of my good friend Cody, and imagine that you are falling towards something you want".
"Something I want?" I closed my eyes and tried to imagine it.
"Come on Sadie, we're waiting for you downstairs," the faces of a million Katies calling me gave me courage.
"Okay, I'm going to do it," I said with more determination than ever.
"Good luck," Owen told me.
"HERE I GO KILLER BASS!" I shouted as I jumped out of the plane.
Confessional.
Sadie
"That was the craziest thing I've ever done in my life and Katie wasn't there to see it, I miss you so much, friend, I hope you can see me from over there at home," she told the camera.
End of the confessional.

POV. Cody
"Well, moving this sofa bed hasn't been as hard as I expected," Heather said.
"Any sign of Owen, Cody?" Leshawna asked me.
"Well... I was able to find the plane and someone jumped... but I'll be honest with you, I only see a dot falling in the distance, I don't know if it's him or Sadie."
"It's not like there's much difference between one or the other," Heather said.
"Heather! That's so cruel!" said Lindsay.
When I told the girls I had a pair of binoculars, they decided to let me ride on the sofa bed to try to see where Owen would fall. I protested at first, but they claimed that I wasn't even an extra weight on the sofa bed... I think they were making fun of me a little bit there, but it doesn't matter, they took the sofa bed to the beach with no problems.
I could finally see that the person who fell was... "uh, looks like Sadie was the first one to jump," Trent was technically pushed out of the plane now that I think about it.
I wonder if that was what inspired Chris for the Drop Of Shame on World Tour.
I turned my attention back to the plane, it had moved quite a distance, then I saw a second point launch itself from it. But this one fell much faster. Come on Owen, open the parachute. He did, but his speed didn't slow him down.
He crashed into a passing flock of seagulls, how unfortunate.
"AHHHHHHHHH!", his cry could finally be heard from here, it looks like he would fall into... "Oh shit."
"What's wrong?" Gwen asked, "where's Owen? I hear him, but I don't see him."
I removed the binoculars from my eyes which were wide open, "All of you! Behind the sofa bed, now!"
We quickly crowded behind the couch, and just in time.
*SPLASHHHHHHHHHHH!*
A small tsunami formed in the lake due to Owen's fall, at least he had a better landing than Trent. Luckily the sofa bed protected us from the water.
When he finished, Owen floated onto the beach.
Confessional.
Owen
He had feathers on his face and was completely soaked, but smiling, "Hey, you know what? It wasn't too bad, Huhehahahaha."
End of the confessional.
"Owen, are you okay?", he burped something and I caught it with my hand, "this is...", I said surprised.

POV. Courtney
"¡AHHHHHHHHHH!", I could see Sadie falling with her parachute open.
"Over there," we moved the sofa bed quickly and it closed when Sadie fell inside.
We are all waiting expectantly...
Then it opened up, "I'm fine," Sadie said excitedly, we celebrated for this.
Chris flew over the island, "The Gophers lose, the Bass win, one to zero," the presenter announced, well, we're on the right track.
"Squawk," I quickly turned around at the sound of a seagull, but was disappointed to see that I didn't have my collar.

POV. Bridgette
"Okay, cowpokes, let's start… the rodeo moose challenge" Chris, Gwen and I walked alongside Geoff.
"Rodeo ridin's kinda like surfin'. Once you catch the lip, you just flow with the mojo," Geoff told us, looking very confident.
"Hey Geoff, by any chance you don't know of anyone on this island who likes haikus?", he might be able to give us a clue.
"Hai what? What's that?" I ask confused from the top of the moose, well, at least now we know he didn't write it, "hey Bridgette, do you want to see my amazing tattoo?" he pulled down his pants.
"He definitely didn't write it," Gwen said.
"Yes, definitely."
"Really, Geoff?!" Courtney yelled.
Confessional.
Courtney
"Why do the boys on this island pull down their pants in public every chance they get?" she asked angrily.
End of the confessional.
I heard the moose snort and all of a sudden, he shot out of the corral with Geoff on top of him, I think he didn't like him pulling his pants down over him.
"Geoff!"
"AHHHHHHHHHH!" he shouted as the moose led him away. Then he stopped and threw him through the air.
"And Geoff's...", Chris interrupted himself when Geoff stepped over him and fell into the pile of dirty socks, "Out?", he peeked out of the pile, "OHHHH, that sucked for the Bass, no, seriously, that is some rank stuff... Cody let's rodeo."

POV. Cody
Chris announced that it was my turn and I swallowed, after seeing Geoff, I was a little scared, but I had to do it, the reward was worth it (and I'm not talking about the mobile shower).
"You can do it, Cody," Lindsay encouraged me.
"Show that moose who's boss," Leshawna said.
I climbed on the moose and clung to his antlers, he didn't even react, I was able to ride on top of a bear, a moose is nothing, I just have to avoid provoking him like Leshawna did.
"Be careful," I looked next to me, Courtney was standing there with quite a bit of concern on her face, that was a surprise.
I tightened my grip, "I'll be fine," I told her, she smiled and walked away from the pen.
I nodded to the chef, and he opened the door.
It was like a switch was flipped. "Woah!", as soon as he had freedom, the big beast ran over and started shaking his head, maddened, my only advantage is that being so light he couldn't throw me, now I see why they call them raging moose. "Don't worry, friend! I don't want to hurt you, I'm a friend! Do you want me to scratch your head!?", I said desperate for it to calm down, yeah, that only made him angrier, and I thought Heather had a bad temper.
The beast was determined to throw me down, but I didn't survive riding a carnivorous bear's back, only to be defeated by a moose. I clung for my life to its antlers, I hope they don't break because of the force with which it shakes.
He took us running into some bushes where the bear from before was about to feast on marshmallows, he looked at us in surprise.
"No!" I reflexively moved the moose's antlers and it changed direction.
Confessional.
Cody
"From one treat gourmand to another, I couldn't let the moose crush those bags of marshmallows, even if they were possibly from the bear that attacked me before."
Bear
He's eating marshmallows in the confessional.
End of the confessional.
The moose led us to the other campers now, "Get out of the way! Vehicle out of control!", this was nothing like riding an emu or a camel, but it reminded me a bit of that crazy race I had with Ace the Donkey down the Great Wall of China.
"Ahhhhhh," many shouted as they fled the moose.
"And... time, Ouch!", he mooed and I ran over Chris in our mad dash.
"Uhhhhhh~," several said as they saw the host being run over.
Confessional.
Gwen
"I think I'm starting to love this show," she said with a smile.
End of the confessional.
The moose headed straight for a tree, ok, time to get off. I jumped off the moose's back and rolled on the ground.
*CRACK* He drove on and crashed into the tree, knocking him unconscious.
"Uff," I breathed a sigh of relief, "the longest eight seconds of my life," I said tiredly, that had been very intense.
"Cody!"
"Woah," the girls on my team greeted me with hugs.
"You did it."
"You won the challenge."
"Well done, short thing."
"Seeing Chris get run over was priceless."
Wow, I didn't expect so much excitement from them.
"That mobile shower will be ours," right, the shower, that makes more sense.
To his credit, Chris got up off the ground just a little disheveled and dizzy, fixed his hair and dusted himself off, "point for the Gophers, it's time for the final challenge, extreme water skiing," he said undeterred.

" So, we have a tie! Whoever wins the extreme sea doo waterski challenge wins invincibility", The presenter announced.
" I'm ready~", Lindsay said showing off her new bikini now, and I can only say, that I am very grateful that that moose didn't kill me, because that bikini looked great on her, and I was in the front row to see her.
"How do I look?" she asked.
"You look great Lindsay," I replied as I grabbed my camera, "one for posterity," she struck a pose for the photo, and we even took a selfie, with Owen included.
"We are so dead", dijo Heather, Have a little more faith, girl, "unless… I get to drive the wave jumper", That's better.
"Just win the dang shower so I can get my hair did", said LeShawna.
Confessional.
Harold
" This is it. We're tied for the win, Courtney will be driving Lindsay, I'm skiing for the Bass, winning is inevitable, then everyone will admire me, my mad skills properly, everybody'll call me Dirty Harold", He said with sunglasses and a drain opener for some reason.
End of the confessional.

POV. Gwen
"Any luck?", I asked Bridgette.
"No, not a hint of who or for whom the poem on the Bass' side was," she replied.
We had gotten nowhere on the subject of the letter, but out of curiosity we could not leave the subject.
"Maybe we should ask Cody again, he's very smart, he sure can figure something out," I said, we looked around, but there was no sign of the fake mountaineer, "uh, where's Cody?"
"He said he wanted to take some pictures of the competition from a better angle, he has to be somewhere else on the track," Leshawna told me.
"A better angle of the track or Heather?"
"Yes."
Bridgette shook her head, "I think that guy could get something better than Heather," she said.
"I don't know, so far I've found him to be the only one who's puts her in her place more than once," I joked.
We both laughed about it, then Harold came out of the bathroom with his pants down, "ladies", then tripped and fell to the floor.
Confessional.
Courtney
"I swear if I see another guy pull his pants down, I'm going to kill somebody... preferably Chris," she said irritably.
End of the confessional.
"He didn't write the poem," I said as we watched the fallen Harold.
"I agree," well, back to the beginning.

POV. Cody
I was in a much more secluded spot on the track with my camera ready, specifically next to a certain somewhat special tree. Yes, what I was going to do didn't look good. Maybe I should try to warn Heather or something, but, strategically that could cost us the challenge, karmically it would prevent justice from being done and funnily enough, I wanted to check if what Izzy said is true. So in this debate of right or wrong, the options were less even than expected.
So I'll just let nature take its course. It's not as if this incident damaged Heather's reputation, on the contrary, her fans increased after this episode... Even if they weren't all the kind of fans she wanted.
Also, why wasn't she wearing a bra now that I think about it?

"And that's it!", As I heard Chris's voice, Heather sped down the slope, dragging Harold through the mud instead of allowing him to ski.
But this one managed to take the first flag of the road anyway. I don't know if that's just luck or skill.
" Flag one for Bass," Chris announced over the megaphone.
"Nooooo...", Heather said exaggeratedly, then began to maneuver more abruptly so that Harold couldn't take another pennant... It didn't work. Harold took four more pennants.
" Five flags and headed home."
"That's impossible," Heather complained.
" Heather has to cross the finish line or be disqualified! but when she does, Harold will take five flags to victory for the Killer Bass!", that made Heather panic, they were already close to the finish line.
Confessional.
Heather
He was wearing Cody's vest, " I couldn't let that little dorkwad win. So I decided to cut him loose."
End of the confessional.
Heather turned around on the bike to cut Harold's rope, I set up my camera.
She pulled out a small pocket knife, " Game over, guppy," she said as she approached the rope.
"Victory is-," Harold cut himself off when he saw what Heather was going to do.
It all happened in an instant, the tree branch took away Heather's crop top exposing her bare breasts. She stood up in surprise, giving Harold and me a good close-up.
It was like time had stopped, she had nice pink nipples and just as Izzy described it, she had two moles near her left nipple, to my surprise she didn't have tan lines on her skin, she has really taken care of the sun until now. Her breasts weren't very big, cup b I imagine, almost c, but together with her incredibly slender figure she made them stand out quite a bit... she actually looked like Izzy in that sense, curious.
I was so stunned that I almost forgot to take the picture... almost.
I managed to catch it just in time, her surprised face was an extra bonus, then she covered herself and yelled, "AHHHHH!"
Harold, who had been stunned, hit a rock head-on, losing the flags and the challenge. Heather's bike went on a little further and then derailed and sent her flying, she fell on top of the bear from before. Well time to intervene.
"I don't know what Heather did to make Harold lose his concentration," yeah, sure, "but its a total wipeout for the Bass team," Chris announced over the megaphone.

POV. Heather
I can't believe I seriously just ended up exposed on TV, and to top it all off I landed on a bear, who looked very angry, better not mess with me dude, I'm not in the mood right now.
"Hey!", Cody came out of nowhere with a bag of marshmallows, "I'll trade them for her," he said to the bear.
To my surprise, the bear looked at the bag of marshmallows, then at me, then at the bag, then me, the bag, me, like that several times.
"Woah", then I throw myself into Cody's arms, he almost fell, that made me angry, I'm not that heavy you know.
Cody tossed the marshmallows at him and he happily walked away on two legs while eating them, "Did you just negotiate a hostage situation with a bear?", I can't believe that came out of my mouth.
"What can I say? We have history... At least I think that's the one I have history with," he said, squinting at the bear, "the truth is, they all look alike."
"...", he stared at me after that, then I remembered that he was carrying me while the only thing covering my breasts were my arms, I blushed at this, "What do you think you are looking at?", I threatened.
But he just smiled at me, "well I remembered that you said that I would never see so much of a woman again in my life, it's a bit ironic, isn't it?" he said trying not to laugh, he was also a little blushing.
I widened my eyes, "You saw me, didn't you?" it wasn't a question.
"I'm sorry, I was close when it happened," he said somewhat embarrassed, "but...", he hurriedly said seeing me angry, "now the Bass don't have any points thanks to you and... yes, that, so now our chance of winning is higher," I hate how all his excuses seem so convincing.
I got out of his arms and brought my face as close to his as possible, "you are so lucky to have been useful to me so far, because many would have already disappeared just to mention half of the things I have already forgiven you," I threatened.
But he didn't flinch in the slightest, just took off his vest and handed it to me, "I guess that makes me special by your very low standards, doesn't it?"
I snatched his vest and he turned around to give me privacy, acting like a gentleman now? You just saw me topless, I'm not impressed.
Confessional.
Heather
"The guy is a pervert who looks at me lasciviously at every chance he gets, he's also had the gall to go against me on more than one occasion, something no one does unless they have a death wish. He acts the way he wants around me, do you want to know what I think of him?" she sighed, "... yes, I'll admit I'm a little impressed."
End of the confessional.
We stayed in the clearing, as Cody said he wanted to take pictures of Lindsay's race, I'm pretty sure the bastard took a picture of me at the time as well.
I tightened the vest a little around me and sighed, he gave me his vest and got rid of the bear away when he had no reason to, as well as winning the moose challenge. I guess I can turn a blind eye... just this time. Anyway, I don't think he'll use it to threaten me, he doesn't play that way from what I've seen. Knowing how perverted he is, he probably will use it to release stress at night, I felt a little tingle at the thought.
Come to think of it, he's the only person in camp who bothers me just for fun, with no ulterior motives. There are also times like now when he helps me only for the sake of it and not as an obligation, going beyond the alliance or even the challenges.
I thought maybe he had something going on for me, but he blatantly looks at all the girls, so at least it's more than that.
He treats me like I'm his friend and I can't comprehend that, I haven't done anything with him that I wouldn't do with others and yet he takes it with humor instead of spitefulness or resentment, it's almost like he already expects me to be like that.
"I want you to tell me what Cody's secret is."
What did Noah really mean? "Why are you so nice to me?" I ended up asking before I realized it.
"...", He didn't answer me at first, just like in our conversation on the porch, "I'm nice to everyone," was his vague reply, that bothered me, I wasn't going to let him go without something more concrete this time.
I took his face with my hands and forced him to look me in the eyes, "but I didn't ask you why you're nice to everyone", I brought my face closer to his knowing that it would make him nervous, "I asked you, why are you nice to me?", he opened his eyes wide and blushed, heh, I won't lie, he looked cute when scared.
I let go of him and he sighed, "Okay, I'll tell you... You really remind me of a friend I had," she told me, this is interesting, "she thought she was on top of the world, she was a bit manipulative and arrogant, and was constantly fighting with my other friends because of this."
"Sounds like she was a bitch," she waits. Didn't he say he looked like me? Oh, you little-
He laughed, "Yes, she was quite a bitch, but she was my friend. We were separated for a few years, and when I saw her again, she looked so... tired, things had happened in her life, and now she was a different person, a much more subdued one," he said regretfully, "I guess I see you being so... Well, you, it reminded me a bit of her, or at least, the intense and strong person she used to be... I'm sorry if that sounded offensive."
"So, you say that the reason you help me and are nice to me, is it because I remind you of a friend?", I genuinely didn't know whether to be offended or flattered.
"No," he replied immediately, that surprised me, "I help you because I like you, I was just pointing out that I realized how much you look like her," he said cheekily, I rolled my eyes, "as for why I'm nice to you... well, it would be very lonely if everyone always hated you, wouldn't it?" he asked me.
I blushed a little without realizing it, "I'm not alone! I've got Lindsay! And lots of friends at home!" I protested childishly, inadvertently.
"Friends or followers and sycophants?"
"...", I didn't know what to answer to that, "So what? Am I supposed to be grateful that you want to be my friend?" I lashed out.
"Not at all. People become friends with someone because they want to, not to make that person feel indebted. You may or may not appreciate me being your friend, but the fact is, I'm here if you just want to stop being so bitter, talk to someone about something other than the competition... or if you ever feel lonely," he told me with a smile.
In the end I could only sigh, arguing with him is like swimming against the current, you'll just end up tired without getting anywhere, I guess there's no harm in letting him think we're friends, "I guess I might consider talking to you from time to time", He laughed about it... I think it's the first time I don't mind him laughing at me.
...
"Ready, set, ride it like it's sweeps week! Go!" Chris announced kicking off the final race.
Courtney started the bike and set off, but surprisingly Lindsay held her ground as she skied. They jumped down a ramp and she took the first flag.
"What?" said Courtney in surprise, she started zigzagging trying to get Lindsay not to take the flags, but she managed to take them anyway, skiing like a pro in the process, "Oh come on!", ha, that's funny.
"I bet you didn't expect it, did you?" Cody asked me as he snapped photos.
"I admit I had my doubts, yes," I said as naturally as I could.
Confessional.
Heather
"I admit that Lindsay may be more useful than I originally thought, which means I can still use her," she said with a mischievous grin.
End of the confessional.
"Lindsay takes her fifth pennant and goes home ready for the win," Lindsay's determined face was starting to scare Courtney, "Courtney is in trouble, she has to cross."
We watched as Courtney made one last attempt to zigzag to get Lindsay off her back, but to no avail, they crossed the finish line.
"NOOOOOOOOO!", Courtney shouted, smashing her head into the steering wheel.
"YOO HOO, hahahahahaha", Lindsay laughed.
"YEEEEEEEEEAH!", We screamed, in my excitement I ended up hugging the nerd next to me, but I didn't mind right now, I could have a decent bathroom for once.
"The Gophers won."

"Lindsay, that was spectacular," Cody said as he went to congratulate Lindsay on her win.
"Thanks Cody, you were great with the moose thing too," those two have become close.
I looked off to the side and the brats Gwen and Bridgette were staring at me with their mouths open, "What? Do I have something on my face?" I asked annoyed.
"Hey, why are you wearing Cody's vest?" Gwen asked holding back her laughter, my eyes widened when I realized.
"And where's your blouse?" asked Bridgette with the same mockery.
The whole clearing fell silent, I didn't know what to say.
"That's. Not. Tue," Courtney said with a blush, getting the wrong idea, I couldn't help but blush at her misguided insinuations.
"Hahahahahahaha, Cody, you are so mischievous," Owen said to the other blushing boy.
"Hey, I..." he tried to reply, but I acted before he could speak.
I walked over and hugged him from behind, "What can I say? The situation got the better of us~," I said in a cheerful, smiling voice. He turned redder and froze in place, if you make fun of me then get ready for me to do the same, nerd.
Confessional.
Cody
"Yes, I know, I asked for it."
Harold
"Boobies~".
End of the confessional.
"Well, it's been a very exhausting day, I'm going to look for clothes so I can take a bath in our new mobile shower", with that I left everyone with their mouths even more open and not knowing what to say, that was fun, I always have the last word, losers.

POV. Cody
Heather left and immediately everyone jumped in to ask me questions, that was her intention after all, she fakes a crime and then leaves for someone else to deal with the consequences, but it didn't work for her this time. After a sight like that, I don't care that she threw me under the bus. I can't believe I got to see it live and I even have a photo.
...
After getting everyone to believe me when I told them nothing happened (which was hard), Chris told the Bass that he would see them tonight at the campfire ceremony.
Now Owen and I were sitting at the picnic tables snacking along with Gwen and Bridgette.
"What's up with chicks and showers?", Owen asked.
"Well, they like to be clean and smell good, can you imagine if they preferred to stink and look like Eva?"
He shuddered, "I think you might have a point."
Bridgette and Gwen sighed beside us, "Weren't you lucky?" I asked.
"We couldn't find out who wrote it," Gwen said.
"Or who it was for," Bri termed.
"This almost feels like a defeat."
LeShawna and Lindsay, who finished showering, walked past us at that point, I guess Heather was lingering in there as long as she could.
"What do you have there, girlfriends?" asked LeShawna.
Chris appeared out of nowhere, "Another note from your secret admirer, LeShawna?"
"Leshawna's the crush, girl?!", It was funny to see how surprised they were by that.
"You two know someone else here with a booty as luscious as an apple?", she said as she shook her booty.
"Move it girl!", I said, although Courtney has an impressive behind too, now that I think about it.
"Hahahahahahaha", Owen just laughed.
"But who wrote it?" asked Gwen, no one knew what to answer... except me, but I wasn't going to ruin the surprise.

The catfish were sitting on the stumps of the campfire, "As you know, if you do not receive a marshmallow, you will be forced to walk the Dock of Shame, and you will never ever return to camp," he took two marshmallows in his hands, "... ... Sadie and Bridgette, you're safe," they went to pick up their marshmallows, then he picked up a megaphone, "Geoff, you're safe too," he said to the boy sitting in a tree with a skunk next to him, he gave him a thumbs up.
Then he threw his marshmallow at him, "Muchos luchos, compadre!"
"Okay, that leaves Harold, who bailed big for reasons unknown," he looked quite happy.
Confessional.
Harold
"Boobies~".
End of the confessional.
"And Courtney who allowed Lindsay to get away with the victory."
"Didn't you see her face!? I didn't have a chance!" the CIT tried to defend herself.
"And the last marshmallow of the night is for...
...
...
...
...
...
...
...
...
...
...
...Courtney", she happily ran to grab her marshmallow, "Harold, you're out of the competition," Chris said, but Harold looked more than satisfied.

POV. Cody
All but Heather were standing on the dock as Harold walked to the boat of losers, " Farewell Total Drama Island, I loved… I lost… and I saw boobies", me too, What more could a man ask for?".
"You loved?" asked Gwen.
"You're a man?" asked LeShawna.
"You saw boobies?" asked Bridgette, being the most surprised of the three.
"Leshawna, I meant every word of that poem," Harold said.
"Poem? That was you?" she asked, surprised and moved.
"Impossible," Bridgette said in disbelief.
"Uh, did I miss something here?" Courtney said blankly, of course no one told her about the poem.
LeShawna and Harold ran to meet in the middle of the dock, and hugged, "Baby, you some kind of freaky," she said.
"Give Daddy some sugar," she kissed him, touching the girls on both teams.
"Really, what did I miss?" asked Courtney.
I don't know what to make of these two's relationship, it was never really clear if they were together or just remained friends, but I guess as long as they're okay then there's no reason to meddle. I know they loved each other at least.
The chef grabbed Harold by separating them and putting him in the boat of losers. It started to leave as LeShawna happily walked back to us.
Confesionario.
Chef Hatchet
"Leshawna and Harold? I was as shocked as you, but you didn't read the letters, hehehehe, oh spicy".
Fin del confesionario.
"Wait a sec.", said Geoff, "So, Harold saw your boobies?", He asked LeShawna.
"Can we see?", Owen asks a question like that and the fans say I'm the pervert for asking for a bra?
"Heck no," she refused, then realized, "wait a minute," she approached the end of the dock, "WHO'S BOOBIES DID YOU SEE?!" she shouted.
Heather chose just that moment to get out of the shower, too bad for you, LeShawna gave her a bad look.
"Oh, oh... oh, oh, see now, you messed with the wrong sister", she said.
" Oh please. It was a total fluke. You think I'd actually show that dweeb my boobs on purpose?", Heather replied calmly, but Leshawna began to walk towards her angrily., "ahh... AHHHHH", then she began to chase Heather. I guess the nonviolence agreement doesn't matter anymore at this point.
"Get back here," LeShawna said as she chased after her.

"Hola Courtney".
"Please tell me you're not here to pull your pants down."
"What?", that topic seriously affected her.
"Forget it, look it's been a long day, and we lost the shower, I'm not in a good mood to talk right now," she told me, glad she's still the considerate Courtney.
I smiled at her, "So I think I have something that can change that," I took an object out of my pocket, "Ta-dah!"
"My necklace!" said Courtney, surprised when I showed it to her.
"Woah," she slammed into me in a tight embrace.
"Thank you, thank you, thank you, thank you, thank you," she pulled away and took it up, "How did you take it away from that seagull?"
"Actually, it was Owen, I think he bumped into her as she fell from the sky."
"Well, in that case I thank you too," she put on the necklace.
"Well I have to go back to my cabin, good night Courtney," she stood still for a moment thinking about something, then came up to me and gave me a quick kiss on the cheek. I blushed slightly.
"Good night," she said happily, then turned and left.
"Well, that went pretty well," I saw LeShawna, chasing Heather into the distance, "I can't say the same for that."

POV. Third person
Chris is standing on the dock of embarrassment giving the chef bill after bill, "I don't know why I keep betting with you, I always end up losing money," the grumpy presenter said.
"Hehehehehe, it's a pleasure doing business with you," the cook said.
"What's going to happen now that we've made it to the top ten? What will our campers do next time? And what girl's breasts will Cody see next? Heck, that guy is lucky, all that and more next week, here at TOTAL... DRAMA… ISLAND!"

The boat carrying Harold sailed for about an hour, then landed on another island, surprising the nerd.
But even more surprising was the person who stood at the beginning of the pier waiting for him.
Duncan stood there with his arms crossed and a bored look in front of the nerd. Harold swallowed hard and stepped off the boat to face his fate.
He walked until he was about three feet away from the delinquent, who hadn't moved or spoken in all this time, "I just want you to know, that if I'm going to die today, it won't be without a fight," Harold made several exaggerated moves and ended up in a standard kung fu combat stance, Duncan just raised his eyebrow, "Go ahead, do your worst."

"Nah, we're fine," the delinquent finally said with a shrug.
"What?"
"You played well, I brought this on myself," he said as he scratched his head, uncomfortable.
~0~
"I swear I'll kill that nerd when I get here!" said Duncan as he plunged his silverware into the table, scaring the other expelled campers who ate with him.
They recently watched the tapes of the episode in which he was ejected and were not at all happy to learn that Harold cheated.
"I'm sorry buddy, but I won't let you do it," to his surprise DJ stood in front of him.
"Stay out of this DJ, that nerd asked for it," Duncan said, he didn't want to fight DJ , but at this point he was very angry.
"The same can be said of you, doesn't it?" said Noah, who was sitting at the table now without a sling.
"What did you say know-it-all?"
Noah didn't flinch, "You went too far with your jokes, it was fine when you just wanted to teach him a lesson, but then you went on and on, did you really think your actions would have no consequences?", what bothered Duncan the most, is that yes, he seriously thought there would be no consequences.
"You were mean to him and he defended himself, you can't lash out because then both of you are going to be going around in circles, I'm telling you this because I'm your friend, you have to be mature and forgive him, it's the right thing to do," DJ lectured.
Duncan didn't say anything at first, but then he sighed and sat down in his chair, "yes, I guess it's fair," he laughed, "at least I can say that his trick was pretty ingenious."
"Well, that's a start," DJ said.
-0-
Both guys saw Dj watching their exchange from a balcony, "Are you serious? Do you really forgive me?" asked Harold, surprised.
"I'd rather say we're even now," the delinquent told him, "changing the votes was very clever, nerd," that made him smile, but Duncan grabbed him by his shirt and brought it to his face, "but if you ever do something like that against me again, that'll be the last thing you do. He threatened him, Harold just nodded his head erratically, "okay, now let's go, the others are waiting for us," Duncan termed, then both boys walked down the pier towards the resort.
But Harold never noticed that Duncan stuck a piece of paper on his back that said "kick me", they may be even now, but Duncan is still Duncan.
