Sorry that I took long for this to come out. I was just working hard to make sure everything was written well. Additionally I usually end up writing a lot so this chapter is broken down into 3 parts (Usually cause I try to fit every character in). I did think in the feedback, and thank you for the comments.
With that out of the way, I hope you enjoy this chapter!
Total Sole Survivor Season 2 (Spies at Sea) Ep 1 Part 1 "The only problem is the 15 people in the way of me and my money"
The scene started off by showing off the scenery.
There were the rapid waves, the clear blue sky, and the lively sea life.
The camera kept moving until it stopped to focus on a dock.
There Caleb and Michigan stood.
"Grab your life vest!" Caleb said.
"And fastened down!" Michigan rested an arm on her brother's shoulder.
"Cause this is the premier episode of Total Sole Survivor! Season 2, Spies at Sea!" The two said together.
"This season will be a season of…"
They went back and forth starting with Michigan.
"Friendship!"
"Adventure!"
"Danger!
"Strategy!"
"Maybe some Romance.."
"And of course drama!" They concluded together.
"16 diverse contestants were given the opportunity of an experience of a lifetime and a crack at the 1 million dollar prize!" Caleb explained to the viewers. "..but even though there are 16, only ONE will come out on top."
"But who will it be? That is to be determined," Michigan went on. "To become the second Total Sole Survivor winner they must get through.."
"..challenges…"
"..twists.."
"..eliminations.."
"..but they're biggest obstacle in the end, is EACH OTHER," Caleb and Michigan finalized.
"Who will come out on top? Will we find our parents? What do we have in store? How will this season be different? Find out it all, and more on. Total. Sole. Survivor. Season 2: Spies at Sea!"
**Song: I Wanna be Famous(Total Drama Theme Song)**
As the theme song starts with the instrumental it begins with showing a view of the wide ocean. It shows an underwater shot with fish swimming in a school. There is a colorful ecosystem of sea animals: Octopus, eel, dolphin, etc. All the animals then scatter, except for one goldfish. A shark enters the scene. The shark is about to eat the goldfish, but Beatrice is shown to come swimming in grabbing the goldfish seconds before it is gobbled up as she gives the shark a stern look. Beatrice cuddles the goldfish in her arms as she then swims through the sea like a mermaid, jumping in and out of the water like dolphins do. Finally she jumps onto the boat sitting on the edge, and releases the goldfish back into the water.
Dear Mom and Dad I'm doin' fine,
Although Beatrice then covers her ears as if something loud took her by surprise and she falls into the water. The camera pans to show Davy on board playing his guitar at a high volume(being the noise that had startled Beatrice). He runs to look over the side of the boat with a concerned face. Beatrice resurfaces at first with an annoyed face, but she then smiles and playful splashes at him.
You guys are on my mind.
Alanar is shown to be in a different area of the boat watching them. She shakes her head at Davy, but then turns back to a painting she is working on which is a painting of her and Uma. She finishes it and stands up and gives it to Uma.
You asked me what I wanted to be
Uma smiles, and acts like she is impressed. She then walks off after blowing a kiss at Alanar which makes her blush.
and now I think the answer is plain to see,
Uma then enters a different room of the boat where she somehow quickly changes into her swimming outfit(using her show girl expertise).
I wanna be famous.
Godfrey is seen looking into a mirror waiting for her, he then turns around and flashes a smile at her. She twirls into his arms, and kisses him.
I wanna live close to the sun,
And then they both pose in the mirror flashing beautiful shiny smiles, before Godfrey tosses the mirror behind his back. Where the mirror flies up reflecting the sunlight.
Go pack your bags, 'cause I've already won,
Mirror flies off camera and somehow ends up into a different room of the boat. There Tamashini is finishing dressing up. The mirror hits him in the face, and at first he is irritated until he notices it's a mirror and inspects himself in the reflection to see his outfit. Although he doesn't watch his step and he slips. Tamanshini is scared but he is luckily caught by Frederick.
Everything to prove, nothing in my way I'll get there one day.
He blushes as Frederick then hugs him tightly. Frederick places him down and twirls him around. It then seems like they are about to kiss, but suddenly Nicholas then struts in between them, shoving both boys to the floor. Nicholas first snickers (as Tamanshini is seen glaring while Frederick is frowning). He then sits down and begins painting a picture of an island which happens to be Volesile Island (This will make more sense later on in the story)
Cause, I wanna be famous!
The next scene shows The camera zooms in on the island and then transitions to it. The scene shows Rosalina and Mikaio walking on the island, chatting about something. Although suddenly spears are flung in their direction. Rosalina dodges performing some acrobatics, while Mikaio attempts to dodge, but he steps on some sort of trap that launches him into the air.
Na na na na na na na na na na na na na na na!
Rosalina turns around as she scratches her head that Mikaio is gone. Then she feels a hand grab her shoulder, to which she throws them over her shoulder out of reflex only for it to be Phillip. As Phillip falls he pulls her down with him, making Rosalina end up on top of him. Phillip is seen to just grin and bounce his eyebrows up and down, while Rosalina blushes and turns her cheek the other way.
I wanna be, I wanna be, I wanna be famous
The next scene shows Zarian in a field doing tricks with a football. He tosses it up, balances it and spins it on his finger. He smiles, although last second Jolt zooms by and snatches the football out of Zarian's hand which leaves Zarian frowning. Jolt is seen smirking as she dashes forward with the ball, but she then trips over an invention planted in the ground by Melissa.
Na na na na na na na na na na na na na na na! (as can be heard in the background)
Jolt sends Melissa a dirty look as she picks herself off the ground, while Melissa just awkwardly shrugs. Although as Melissa tries to leave she realizes something is missing, to which Mistral is seen poking her head out of a bush with a cunning, yet devious smile.
I wanna be, I wanna be, I wanna be famous
Mikaio is then seen to finally land on a beach, to which he looks up to see Shelby holding a sheet that says "Is pain real?" Mikaio just shrugs then shakes his head, despite being in somewhat obvious pain. Shelby just nods being satisfied with the answer.
Everyone else then quickly joins them on the beach.
(Whistling in tune)
The final scene everyone poses for a group picture. Caleb and Darrel shove each other as they try to get in the middle, which Michigan then just pops up between them, putting her arms around both of them.
Sienna takes a photo which shows: Michigan in the middle with her arms around a smiling Caleb, and a winking Darrel. To their left: Davy and Philip were standing back to back, with Davy sticking his tongue out while doing a rocker sign and Phillip was doing the finger gun under the chin with a flirty lip bite. Nicholas was seen striking a pose, partially blocking an alarmed Melissa who just put up her hand with an unease smile. Mikaio is seen looking off in the distance, while Rosalina takes a confident stance beside him. Shelby is placing her hand on her glasses with a witty smile, then lastly Uma rounds off the group on the left being on her knees while blowing a kiss. To the right of the host: Frederick is seen wearing a big smile carrying Beatrice (dressed as a mermaid), who also has a huge smile. Zarian is spinning a football on his finger, while Jolt sits on his shoulders flexing her muscles. Godfrey is seen smiling with a devious smirk, unknowingly to him Mistral is sticking her hand in his pocket and winking. On the very right end, Alanar and Tamanishi held a picture that said: Total Sole Survivor Season 2!
The very last scene showed a shadowy figure of the winner whistling the theme song tune as they overlooked the water.
"Okay, let's cut to the chase and bring out the cast, meeting each other for the first time!" Caleb proclaimed. "..also where is Darrel?"
"Oh the boat, why-"
"Oh good, I didn't care, I'm just glad he isn't here," Calab clarified.
"How considerate of you," Michigan snarked. "Whatever, I see the first arrival."
"First we have.."
"..Alanar Chen."
Alanar got off the boat and stepped onto the dock.
She had two small canvases which she was painting on, but stopped as she saw the hosts.
She walked over to them.
"For you," She offered Michigan a pretty picture of a dolphin. "And for you."
She offered another to Caleb. It was a sunset.
"Aww, now that's how you be considerate," Michigan gave her brother a look. "How sweet of you, Alanar."
"No problem, I was just catching the scenery on the way here and..some things caught my eye," Alanar explained. She then looked around the dock. "Speaking of catching my eye..it seems I'm the first one here."
"That you are," Caleb confirmed. "Stand to the side, and the 15 others will be shortly."
"Cool, I can't wait to meet the others," Alanar stepped to the side. "Let's hope they're a good bunch."
The next boat arrived shortly.
"We have..
"..Zarian Brown."
Zarian stepped off the boat with an excited smile.
He walked over to Caleb and shook his hand. "Great to be here, I'm ready to play."
"Glad to hear that, although the game hasn't begun yet," Caleb said back. "You're one of the first few to arrive."
"You can join Alanar," Michigan gestured over to Alanar, who waved.
Zarian approached, "You must be Alanar, the name's Zarian."
"Interesting name..and wow you're tall," Alanar took notice as she looked up at him. The next thing to catch her eye was his jacket. "Are you an athlete?"
"Football is my element," Zarian explained. "So yes, I am an athlete. Also, don't worry you can consider me a friendly giant of sorts."
Alanar laughed. "Good, that's nice to know."
Confessionals
Alanar Chen- The Artist of All Trades
She sat in a confessional that looked like a bathroom.
"Nǐ hǎo, I'm Alanar Chen, and can I say I can't believe I was the first one here. This is..wow do I even have the words for it? Just amazing on all levels. So what should you viewers know about me? Well I'm an artist. And by that I mean I do all things art. From painting to sculpturing, I do it all. Art is my life. What better place to find inspiration for my art than a reality TV show. As they say art imitates life, so there is so much I can find out here. From the adventure, the people, the experience. But you want to know what art I plan to master next? The art of this game!"
**Static**
Zarian Brown- The Chill Football Player
"Yo, we made it fam! What up viewers, it's Zarian Brown coming at you! Okay, so I'm a football player. First thought when you think of a football player, you think of those cocky, tough jocks or those airheaded muscle heads all brawn, no brain. Well that isn't me at all…at least now. Maybe things were different in the past, but the Zarian of today is a cool guy. Which is the exact reason why I'm going to dominate this game. I got the skill, the grind, and the heart. The only thing I need now is the win."
End
"Okay, what about you?" Zarian asked her.
"Oh I draw," Alanar shared. "Or well, I do all kinds of art to be specific."
"Nice, nice..could you draw me?" Zarian wondered.
"I don't see why not, I can draw anything I put my mind to," Alanar stated.
"Lucky, these hands can catch a ball, but when it comes to drawing..we be lacking," Zarian stated.
Alanar laughed. "We can't be good at everything…or I guess I can when it comes to art."
"Anyways, what are you most excited about?" Zarian changed the topic.
"The experience, and the people," Alanar revealed, she had actually now began sketching him and some of the landscape. "And you?"
"Same, but also the competition in general and the challenges," Zarian said.
"Here comes the next boat!" Caleb and Michigan exclaimed.
They then heard the sound of a guitar playing.
"Am I the only one that hears heavy rock?" Alanar checked as she glanced at Zarian.
"No, I hear it too," Zarian nodded.
"Everyone say hello to-"
"-Davis Percival Barth- um that name is too long, let's just say Davy."
Davy's boat came up even having fire coming out of the side. It was like a rock show.
He played a whole song, before finally strapping his guitar on his back and climbing aboard the dock.
"What an entrance..again, but where did you get the fire?" Michigan questioned.
"Davy has his ways. If Davy was going to come in, it was going to be with a bang," Davy asserted as he walked over to the two hosts.
"Well nice to meet you in person, Davy, you can join the other two," Caleb directed him towards Zarian and Alanar. "..interesting 3rd-person speaking."
"That was cool!" Alanar said as soon as he joined them.
"Ya man, how you learn to do that!" Zarian also rushed over.
"I know it was," he said to Alanar, as to Zarian he said, "Davy is in a rock band. Me and my mates are kind of a big thing in the U.K. Or well..somewhat."
"You're british?" Zarian asked.
"Didn't you hear the accent.." Alanar pointed out.
"Ya, and what about it," Davy stepped towards Zarian with a threatening look.
"Nothing bro," Zarian held up his hand. "Just..I don't meet a lot of British people being American and all..I don't leave the states much."
"Well you should travel. So much to see, so much to do, and so many people to impress," Davy smirked. "Which I hope with the money my band can travel a lot more."
"Interesting, but yea I agree traveling is fun," Alanar added on. "There are so many beautiful sights, words cannot capture them. I haven't traveled much myself, but I've seen pictures."
"Next contestant!"
Caleb said as he looked at his watch.
The 3 waited…nothing came.
"Next contestant..um now!" Caleb tried again.
Nothing occurred.
"Is he pulling our leg?" Davy wondered.
"Maybe they're late," Alanar proposed.
"Um guys-" Zarian pointed out a big wave heading right for the dock.
"That wasn't a part of the plan!" Michigan panicked.
"You guys do know how to swim right.." Caleb seemed only slightly alarmed.
"Yes.." Alanar nodded.
"Hopefully?" Zarian shrugged.
"We're about to find out!" Davy rubbed his hands together. "Davy is ready to splash!"
The wave hit the whole dock, getting everyone wet and soaked.
As the water washed away everyone was coughing up water or drying themselves off.
"That..wasn't in my day one plan-book.." Alanar said. She then gasped. "All of my art is ruined!"
"Welp this is coming off," Davy tossed off his leather jacket, his red t-shirt with his band's logo on it being underneath .
"Same, that wasn't a fun experience," Zarian took off his varsity jacket to let it dry. He muscular build with abs being revealed.
"Is everyone still breathing and alive?" Michigan counted heads. "One, two, three, four, five, six- good. Wait? six."
At the edge of the dock now was seated a girl dressed in a mermaid outfit.
"It's Beatrice Kilmer."
Her mermaid outfit differed from her regular outfit as she had a pink mermaid tail, and a pink seashell bra.
"Oh my- I'm so sorry about the water-" Beatrice somehow was magically dry.
"You should be sorry..these clothes aren't cheap," Michigan said in between clenched teeth.
"You have a lot of nerve-" Davy began to march up to her, but as she turned to face him he completely changed his tone. "Oh hello there, bird, the name is Davy, what's yours?"
"Beatrice, and I really am sorry," Beatrice apologized once again. "I just decided to swim instead of..you know take the boat."
Zarian and Alanar glanced at each other, as did Caleb and Michigan.
"No worries, I mean..Davy probably needed to cool off anyways," Davy tried to subtly (although it wasn't very subtle) take off his shirt. "Probably should let this dry off. Need help..you know..um walking with like the tail?"
"Um..sure," Beatrice accepted the offer. "I don't have my regular clothes at the moment, so could you carry me?"
"Don't ask me twice," Davy grinned.
"Huh?" Beatrice blinked.
"I said, sure lass," Davy rephrased.
Beatrice just laughed as he then picked her up.
"Future advice, don't do that again..please," Caleb told Beatrice as Davy carried her to the others.
Alanar was still upset about her art. Although she seemed to have calmed down.
"Hhh, I can't be upset on the first day.." Alanar sighed. She tried to put on a smile.
Davy put Beatrice down so she could talk to the others.
Zarian approached her. "So did you really swim all the way here?"
"What fabrics do you make your tail out of?" Alanar questioned.
"Are you single?" Davy imputed his own thought.
"Yes, I did..believe it or not. The boat did take me part of the way, but I did most of the swimming by myself. The fabric has changed over the years, but my latest tail is latex and lycra," She answered Zarian and Alanar. She then turned to Davy. "Also what was the last question?"
"Are you single?" Davy questioned.
"Oh well- that's a bold question," Beatrice noted.
"Well I happen to be a bold man," Davy asserted.
Confessionals
Davis Percival Bartholomew Wolfgang Amadeus the third - The British Punk Rocker
"Davy has made his entrance! It's cool to be here, and I'm hoping to have a mighty good time!" Davy grinned at the screen as he put up a rock sign with his hands. "If you want the drama, the action, and the greatness you're looking at a contestant that will deliver it all. I never give up. I never back down. And I never lose..I hope. I know my mates are back home cheering me on. My band, the Demon Child will be a whole ton lot richer once I get back home. Just you wait. Oh also can I say before I go, that lassy Beatrice is quite the looker."
**Static**
Beatrice Kilmer - The Mermaid Fanatic
"That was wow..quite the entrance if I don't say so myself," Beatrice laughed awkwardly. "Okay, I didn't mean to drench everyone my bad. I hope all is well and forgiven. So I'm Beatrice, and I'm so glad to play. I know..people might think. Girl, you're crazy, you think you're a mermaid. Well guess what. I do think I'm a cool mermaid. And guess what else? I'm not crazy. I'm good with people. I know the value of..friendships. I might be the classic, good cute mermaid or goodie goodie type as it seems, but underneath all this IS a strong-willed woman who is ready to play the game. I hope my first impression wasn't too bad..I mean Davy seems to like me. Although hopefully soon everyone begins to ride the Beatrice wave. This will be so delightful!"
End
"So um- what do you guys like?" Beatrice changed the subject, much to Davy's disappointment.
"Well I like art.." Alanar frowned as she held up her drenched sketch book. "..or well I like art when it isn't wet."
"Did I do that?" Beatrice winced. "Oops, allow me to dry it, but um- what kind of art do you like."
"All kinds.." Alanar wasn't much in the mood, but she tried to stay chill.
"Well I promise I'll make it up to you," Beatrice assured her. "What about the rest of you?"
"Football," Zarian claimed.
"Rock band," Davy stated with an air of coolness as he attempted to flex to catch Beatrice's eye.
"Wow..that's all so interesting," Beatrice nodded, impressed. "I can't wait to learn more about you guys."
"Why wait," Davy remarked with a flirtatious grin.
Although before anymore could be said, Caleb cut in. "Why wait indeed, cause here is our next contestant-
"...Uma Thurman, woah-"
As soon as Uma stepped foot onto the dock all eyes went onto her.
Everyone got closer to meet and greet her.
"Who is that-" Beatrice began, but Davy accidentally dropped her in the water as his mouth went open.
"Ah!" Beatrice screamed before splashing below.
"Now that's one fit woman," Davy's mouth hung open.
"You said it.." Zarian admitted.
"She's hot.." Alanar nodded.
"What?" Both boys turned to her.
"What," Alanar smiled sheepishly.
"You just said she's hot," Davy pointed out.
"Yea..I'm gay," Alanar revealed kind of shyly.
"So she's hot and you're gay, got it," Zarian caught up.
"Even if I wasn't that girl is something," Alanar declared.
Uma walked past the hosts who still hadn't said anything to her. "Um..so can I join the others?"
"Oh um sorry-" Caleb shook his head as he had been staring like he was in a trance. "Yes, yes you may."
"I thought no gawking at the contestants," Michigan teased her brother.
"I- um- I was thinking out my words carefully," Caleb cleared his throat.
"Whatever you say," Michigan rolled her eyes.
Uma walked over to the others who were still staring.
She placed a nail to her lips, purposefully feigning seductive innocence.
"Is there something on my face..why is everyone staring?" She said, adding a cute playful layer to her already alluring voice.
"There's nothing on your face, but there can be something on your lips in a minute-" Davy tried to approach her, but Zarian put out an arm.
"Dude, have some respect for the lady," Zarian stated. He then went on to put on a charming grin. "The name is Zarian."
"And I'm Alanar!" Alanar bounced forward, but then covered her face in embarrassment as she hadn't meant to yell. "I mean- I'm Alanar."
"Uma, and I'm so pleased to meet all of you," she made sure her eyes met each of theirs.
"We're pleased to meet you.." They all said together as they swooned.
Beatrice had got back on the dock out of the water.
"I'm okay guys- and who is- oh hello?"
"Hi, I'm Uma," Uma introduced herself.
"Oh..hi," Beatrice smiled though there was some underlying tension behind her smile.
"Next boat is here!"
From the next boat they heard a song playing
"Don't Stop Me Now" by Queen was blasting from a radio.
"Everyone welcome…"
"...Frederick James Smith!"
"Hello new friends!" Frederick leaped onto the dock, a peppy bounce in his steps.
"Someone has energy," Alanar observed.
"And good taste," Davy walked over to shake Frederick's hand. "A Queen fan I see. Automatic respect. Davy is in a British rock band himself."
"Really now? I think I would have heard of you! Although..I do spend all my waking hours obsessing over Queen so..that might be why," Frederick said. "BUT! If you have any good song babes, I'll totally be down to listen to it!"
"Good songs? Mate, my songs are out of this world," Davy assured him.
"Okay..well I guess we didn't have to tell him to join the others, he's already fitting in," Caleb noted.
Michigan just nodded.
Everyone else went to see the new guy.
"Ooh, so what are your names, don't be scared to share," Frederick eagerly prompted.
"Uma," Uma smiled at him, but Frederick seemed unphased by her charms.
"Zarian," Zarian greeted.
"Alanar," Alanar shared.
"Beatrice," Beatrice waved and smiled.
"Nice, so um..what are we up to?" Frederick then asked.
"Waiting for everyone to arrive, then the game begins I suppose," Zarian assumed.
"Well does anyone like art, I was drawing on the boat while-" Frederick mentioned.
"I stopped when you said art, I love art," Alanar seemed very happy to see another artist. "We definitely have to talk."
"For sure, girl," Frederick smiled as the two then went to the side.
Davy joined the two of them. "Hey, I never showed you my song yet-"
That left the other 3 together.
"So…Zarian, what do those arms do?" Uma questioned as she stepped a bit closer to him.
Zarian's cheeks went a tad bit red.
"I'm an..athlete..it's good to stay fit you know," Zarian said back. "Just in general..being healthy is good."
"It really is good, that's why I keep my body in top shape," Uma went on.
Beatrice just pursued her lips as she looked at Uma with some skepticism, but she implemented a smile. "I agree. I usually swim to keep in shape."
Confessionals
Uma Thurman- Vegas Showgirl
"I'm Uma Thurman, and I know I'm hot. But I'm not just a pretty face. Oh no, I'm a player. Both in the game and out of it. I will be leaving this game with the million. I have a nice body, a pretty face, and I've always used my looks to..well get what I want. If you have the assets, why not use them. You were given them for a reason, right? So do I want a real relationship..hmm..maybe. But for now, the only relationship I want to improve is the one with my bank account." She laughed as she flirtatiously played with her hair. "I mean what's better than a pretty girl? A rich pretty girl, which is what I'll be."
**Static**
Frederick James Smith- The Gay Queen Super Fan
"Okay first thought- OMG I'm here! Second thought- OMG I'm doing a confessional! Third thought- I have no idea what to do now! I mean..I just got here..and wow. There is..so much I want to do and so much game I want to play..but wow..I need to take a breath. Take it slow, Freddy. Also can I say that this male cast is serving? I see many, may I say, snacks. So what can you expect from me? I will serve! I will play! And if everything goes according to plan, I will win! In the words of Queen 'Don't Stop Me Now!'"
End
"So what do you draw?" Frederick was asking Alanar.
"Um..various stuff actually," Alanar stated. "I would show you but um..my art got wet. What about you?"
"Umm..I make Queen fanfics sometimes.." Frederick confessed with a giddy giggle.
"Weird, but..okay," Davy stated. "Now do you guys want to hear a Demon Child song?"
"What is a Demon Child?" Alanar asked.
"Who is the Demon Child?" Frederick asked.
"Me! Davy is the Demon Child! It's my band," Davy clarified as he then took out his guitar. "Now listen to this sick beat."
Davy began strumming, starting up the song, but he couldn't play for long.
It wasn't long till the next cast member came.
"Everyone say hello to…."
"...Tamashini Hirabayashi"
Tamanshini got off the boat and looked at the people already there.
"Wow, people are already here..I guess I have my work cut out for me," Tamashini denoted. "This should be fun!"
"You can go ahead and join the others," Caleb and Michigan prompted.
Tamashini walked over and waved at everyone, "Hey everyone, I'm Tamashini, and it's great to meet you all."
"Aww, your outfit is so cute and unique!" Frederick complimented as he bounced towards him.
Tamashini smiled being flattered, even doing a little twirl. "Thanks, I'm glad you took notice. I put a great effort into my fashion."
"Ooh, I love fashion too!" Frederick grinned. "So on point!"
"I also like your blue hair, is it dyed?" Alanar inquired, jumping in.
Tamashini lightly laughed, "Well my hair had been teal for as far as I remember."
He then turned back to Frederick. "So..um what kind of fashion are you into? Personally it varies for me, but I love anime and Japanese styles. Gothic also falls into my taste."
"Japanese, oh I personally look into Chinese heritage," Alanar related.
"I mean, I do drag..like drag queens," Frederick admitted. "Some people call me Sasspants, The Prince or my main drag name Melina Mae."
"Aww that is so adorable, I need to see that," Tamashini blushed a bit, but covered his face and cleared his throat. He recomposed himself. "If you want to share, of course."
"Oh, I'd so love to! And I need to see more of your outfits!" Frederick placed a hand on Tamanshini's shoulder.
"Oh for sure, the style is off the charts when I do it," Tamashini assured. "Honestly, something tells me we'll get along just swell."
"I caught the same feeling," Frederick beamed.
"What is happening?" Davy watched the interaction with a confused expression.
"Young love," Beatrice supposed with a supportive smile.
"What?" Davy tilted their head.
"They're gay," Uma deduced flatly.
"How do you know?" Zarian and Davy turned to ask her.
Both of them had now put their shirts/jackets back on respectively.
"Neither of them batted an eye at me, and they're gushing over each other. I can tell a gay guy from a straight guy in 5 seconds flat," Uma explained as she crossed her arms.
"Weird talent, but..cool I guess?" Beatrice blinked.
"Next boat is here!" Caleb then stated.
"...And we have Godfrey Ngakoue!"
Godfrey stepped off and surveyed who was already there.
"Glad to have made it," Godfrey politely said as he walked past the twins.
"Well we're glad you're here,"
He muttered "..as you should be."
He then greeted the others. "Hey everyone, I'm Godfrey. Can't wait to meet all of you and play alongside you."
Everyone happily greeted him back.
"Dang he's.." Tamashini's mouth went open.
"...hot!" Frederick finished.
The two turned to each other and laughed as they had the same thought.
Godfrey smiled, "Thanks, I'm flattered. You guys don't look too bad yourself."
Uma stared at him, not sure what to make of him.
Godfrey caught her staring, and just smiled.
"Like what you see?"
Uma just said nothing, and turned to look the other way, not validating him with a response.
Godfrey shrugged. "Anyone want to catch me up to speed?"
"I got you bro," Zarian offered as he raised his man.
"Nice man," the two fist bumped before Zarian went off with him to catch him up to speed.

Tamashini Hirabayashi - The Harajuku
"Hello, Total Drama, I'm so excited to be here!" Tamashini waved at the screen. He tapped his chin. "Okay so where should I start..okay, well I'm Japanese Canadian and I can't wait to represent my community as well as representing the gay community. But there is so much more to me! As you can see, I pack the style, I have the personality, and I should be able to get through this game like it's nothing. Maybe things might be a bit difficult, but if I put my best foot forward nothing can go that wrong. So time to put on my game face," He smiled at the camera. "Oh and and of course a pretty smile."
**Static**
Godfrey Ngakoue- The Charismatic Villain
Godfrey first fixed his hair. "Okay, good hair. Check. Next first impression. Check. Ladies and gentlemen, we're on a roll! That's what I call a good start," Godfrey rubbed his hands together excitedly. "Glad to be on your screens, I'm Godfrey Ngakoue, and I will hopefully be the winner of this season. It's game time, I don't think these people know who they're dealing with. And that's fine. They don't need to know now. Although sooner or later they'll see, and you'll see why I'm definitely the best player of the game."
End
"Okay, and that's Uma," Zarian finished catching Godfrey up.
"Interesting.." Godfrey nodded as he just observed everyone, taking in as much as he could.
Uma was keeping to herself now, just laying back on the ground.
Alanar, Frederick, and Tamashini were still chatting, the topic being about colors.
"Okay, but like if you pair blue with red you actually get a nice shade," Tamashini was explaining something.
"I try to change up the colors, but I see what fits the scheme the best," Alanar told her own approach.
"I need to see your art," Frederick grinned. "And then you can see mine!"
Beatrice was talking with Davy who was now apologizing for dropping her earlier..or well kind of.
"I don't remember dropping you?" Davy scratched his head.
"But you- whatever, it's fine," Beatrice forgave him regardless.
"The next contestant is here!"
"..Shelby Natalie Evans!"
Shelby stepped off the boat glancing at the cast.
She walked over to the two hosts.
"Glad to begin this experiment or well experience," Shelby said with an eager smile on her face.
"I mean I guess technically both..this game is a social experiment at heart..but some see it as an experience," Caleb responded, while Michigan subtly gave Shelby a dirty look.
"Yes, I guess everything in life our life view just depends on our own personal perspective," Shelby supposed as she then walked past them.
The first to come and greet her was Davy and Beatrice.
"Oh hi, I'm Beatrice-" Beatrice started to welcome her.
"I actually had a quick question," Shelby stopped her midway and raised her finger.
"Oh go ahead," Beatrice encouraged.
"For everyone, I would like to engage all your minds and just..well to get a feel for my fellow competitors," Shelby admitted, and soon everyone turned to stare at her.
"Okay so, ethnics and strategy. How are we to navigate a game where deception and manipulation are rewarded," Shelby asked. "Orr rather, are you more of a crowd that values loyalty and friendship even if it jeopardizes you winning the prize."
"Why do you want to know?" Davy was suspicious.
"Friendship," Alanar didn't mind offering up an answer. "Or wait..then again.."
Godfrey said nothing as he watched to see who would answer.
"Friendship for me for sure," Zarian claimed.
"That's a hard but interesting question, I'll have to get back to you," Beatrice carefully dodged, giving a response.
Uma also said nothing, but just leaned up for where she was lying to raise an eyebrow.
"Friends! I wouldn't reward jerks at all," Frederick shook his head. "It's a game, so you might as well not make it personal and play nice."
Godfrey muttered quietly to himself. "Orrr, do whatever it takes to win."
"What are you getting out of this?" Tamashini demanded from Shelby.
"Just for my own personal..satisfaction you can say," Shelby shrugged.
"Well that's a weird first question to ask.." Tamashini denoted.
"Well life is full of questions, someone has to ask them," Shelby reasoned back.
"She sounds like a philosophist..I hope she isn't, I hate philosophy.." Tamashini whispered near Frederick.
Frederick just semi-whispered "I sense drama~!"
"Next contestant is here!"
"...Jolt Roxas!"
Jolt hopped off the boat and ran up to the host.
"I'm ready to go!" Jolt asserted.
"We love to hear that, join your fellow competitors," The two told her.
"Right.." Jolt sounded a bit apprehensive. "Making friends..no sweat."
Although she was surprised to see mostly everyone was welcoming.
Beatrice, Zarian, Godfrey, and Alanar were the first to greet her.
Frederick and Tamashini did so next.
Although Tamashini grabbed her as she was about to go towards Shelby. "Um..she's a bit weird, just a tad bit. Or actually a lot."
Jolt glanced at Shelby, who was now standing by herself.
She waved at Jolt, who just unsurely waved back.
"Nice to know," Jolt took in, she was a bit overwhelmed being thrown right in and greeted by a bunch of people all at once.
"I think I'm going to go for a run to um- clear my head a bit," Jolt announced.
She then took off running.
Although as she ran past Uma she stopped to stare and almost tripped and fell off the dock.
Jolt got up.
"Oh sweetie, are you okay?" Uma asked
Jolt's face went red. "I'm um- are you okay- no um- I got to go!"
Jolt then rushed off.
Everyone glanced at each other.
"Hmm, I'll go check on her," Zarian offered as he ran in the direction she went.
"Interesting..the game is already having its effects on people.." Shelby observed.
Confessionals
Shelby Natalie Evans- The Existential Philosopher
"Hello viewers, I am Shelby Natalie Evans. I'm a philosopher to the core. Philosophy is a lot of things. It's the knowledge of wisdom. And how do you get wisdom if you don't question why? Philosophy is about asking questions, even if you don't get answers. Like what is the meaning of life? Is any of this real? So throughout the game, I'll be asking the questions. And maybe or maybe not I'll get answers. The question I have now..what does it take to become a Total Sole Survivor? Is it worth it? Let's find out on this journey together."
**Static**
Jolt Roxas- The Feisty Runner
"Hey people of Total Drama, it's Jolt Roxas en la casa, and here to play! Okay..so that Jolt you just saw, that isn't me at all. I'm confident, I'm competitive, and I'm someone who plays hard. But what I'm not is a people person. Sure..I'll get used to it later on, it's just in the moment being thrown into that group of people so fast with everyone throwing their names about and all the talking it was… too much. I find solace in running. Running gives me peace of mind. Running is..just a way for me to relax..gather my thoughts. Remind me who I am. And I am Jolt. I'm a competitor. I'm strong. And I'm a winner. I came into the game as a winner, and I'll leave this game as a winner."
End
Zarian came back after a while.
"She's fast, I couldn't catch her," He notified the others.
"Well..maybe she needed to catch some air," Beatrice suggested hopefully.
"Probably," Tamashini agreed. "It's crowded, but at least everyone is friendly."
"Interesting how the game can alter people's emotions and personalities..is this a true reflection of our true self or does the game highlight certain traits of human nature.." Shelby murmured as she stroked her chin. "Or does it magnify the personality and values we already have."
Tamashini raised an eyebrow as he just stared at her.
Eventually Jolt returned.
"Are you okay?" Zarian was first to ask her.
"Yea, I'm good, I just need to take everything in, but now I'm ready to go!" Jolt effused confidently.
"Good," Zarian nodded. "We all just wanted to be sure you were alright."
"Don't even worry, I'm a strong girl, I can handle myself" Jolt assured him.
"Hey, and um- before you ran away I wanted to say I um- like you hair, it seems like colored hair is a trending theme," Alanar complimented as she came over.
"Oh um- thanks, your hair looks good too," Jolt seemed flattered by the compliment. "Um-"
"Alanar," Alanar supplied.
"Alanar," Jolt smiled as she said her name. "And what's the hot chick- I mean that chick's name." She was referencing Uma.
Alanar just laughed. "Don't worry, I think she's hot too."
"You're Lesbain, I'm also Lesbian!" Jolt exclaimed.
"Oh.." Alanar just smiled. "..nice to know."
Jolt felt a..special feeling in her stomach, "Well, I'll catch you later Alanar."
She jogged over to a different side of the bench.
"Bye Jolt.." Alanar waved.
"You like her?" Zarian asked.
"It's too early to say..but there are so many interesting girls here," Alanar confessed.
"Next contestant is here!"
"...Rosalina J Peña!"
As Rosalina got off the boat she wasn't sure what to make of the big group of people.
She went up to the host.
"Welcome to the game," Caleb and Michigan saluted her.
"Glad I could come," Rosalina simply nodded.
"You may join your fellow castmates," Michigan directed.
Rosalina surveyed who was there trying to decide who to go to. She tried to remain unnoticed and not draw attention to herself. She preferred to watch the others first to know who was worth interacting with.
Her eyes finally landed on Jolt, who was now by herself.
Rosalina made her way over.
"Sorry I happened to notice you by yourself, so..um could I join you, I just got here and I didn't expect it to be as crowded," Rosalina confessed.
"You and me both, sister," Jolt crossed her arms. "I just got here too, and man- it was a lot. But hey the game is just beginning. This is what we came to play!"
"Yea.." Rosalina nodded. "I just..I'm not a people person-"
"Girl, you took the words right out of my mouth," Jolt smiled. "I was in the same boat- pun not intended. I know how you feel."
Rosalina smiled although she felt rather surprised to find a connection right off the bat.
"Well then, I guess we'll be experiencing this together," Rosalina turned to look at Jolt with a small, though uneasy smile.
"Is that your way of saying we should be friends?" Jolt tilted her head.
"Um-"
"Cause if so then, that's a yes!" Jolt solidified.
"Oh okay, great," Rosalina nodded her head and smiled, this time more relieved.
"Next contestant!"
"...Melissa Telia Robinson!"
Melissa stumbled off the boat as she was distracted tinkering with something in her hand.
"M-my invent-tion!"
Her invention, which was some box-like device, went flying, although it was Caleb who ended up catching it.
Melissa ran over to the twins, and Caleb handed her the invention back.
Melissa let out a sigh of relief.
"Th-hank you so-o m-m-much, I put s-so much w-work into t-that," Melissa thanked.
"No problem," Caleb nodded. "Well Melissa, you're on the island. You can join the others."
Melissa nodded as she took a step forward but then stopped.
"T-there's so m-many p-people-" she noted.
Everyone was now in their own little divisions.
Tamashini, Alanar, and Frederick were having a discussion.
Davy was with Beatrice, and they were now talking with Zarian and Godfrey.
Rosalina was chatting with Jolt, and they went over to Uma, and three were talking.
"I mean..that's how the game works. You play with 15 other people. ¼ of the cast isn't even here yet," Caleb told her.
"I b-but-" Melissa wasn't sure who to go to yet. "..okay, I'll at l-least t-try."
"That's the spirit!" Michigan encouraged. "Girl, you got this!"
Melissa decided to go to Shelby. The only person who was alone with her thoughts.
"H-hi, I'm M-melissa," Melissa introduced herself.
"Melissa.." Shelby repeated her name, but her eyes just went to Melissa's prosthetic arm. "Melissa..would you say you are still whole even though a part of your arm isn't yours? Does that arm still contain your soul?"
"M-my prosthetic a-arm?" Melissa was taken back and confused by the questions.
"Yes, that is what I asked," Shelby nodded.
"W-why are y-you asking m-me that? Y-yes I f-feel wh-hole.." Melissa was confused. "I a-am m-me, and m-my arm d-doesn't change t-that."
"Interesting.." Shelby just nodded and smiled. "Thanks Melissa."
Melissa then backed up and accidentally crashed into Jolt.
"Hey watch where you're walking," Jolt rounded on her.
"S-sorry, I w-was just-" Melissa attempted an explanation.
Jolt just narrowed her eyes.
"I'll s-stop talking now, and go-" Melissa decided.
She then saw Alanar.
"Are y-you going to s-scream at m-me too or ask me a w-weird question.." Melissa assumed.
"No, but I was going to give you this," Alanar had her invention in her hand. "You um dropped it, when you bumped into Jolt."
"Oh t-thanks.." Melissa grabbed her hand to take it.
Although being caught up in the moment she got lost in Alanar's eyes.
"Um..I think you forgot to let go," Alanar mentioned as Melissa was still holding her hand.
"Oh o-oops- yea m-my bad," Melissa slipped her hand away.
Jolt watched the interaction and narrowed her eyes even more.
"Everything okay?" Rosalina questioned.
"Yea, I'm all good.." Jolt said as she clenched her teeth.
"Hmm..jealousy is a disease..not a pretty one.." Uma muttered to herself as she felt like she caught on to what was going on.
She wasn't the only one that saw the interaction. Godfrey was also watching.
"You see that," Godfrey mentioned to Davy, Beatrice, and Zarian.
"See what?" Davy asked.
"Alanar..is..well she's getting around," Godfrey pointed out.
"It's good to make friends, it's nice that Alanar is social," Beatrice smiled. "Speaking of which, I need to finish drying her pictures."
"Yea she's just a nice person," Zarian stated.
"She's one rocking chick," Davy agreed. "Although why are all the good ones gay?"
"Hey, have some decorum," Beatrice chided as she sent him a mother-like lecture look. "But yea she's nice. Very nice, and I like that."
Godfrey nodded and smiled, although under his breath he said. "She is nice. Too nice..so basically a threat."

"Welp here I am, so here goes nothing," Rosalina released a sigh. "So I was dared to do this by a fellow police cadet, but if I'm going to compete I might as well win. I'll admit I'm used to coming in first place. I have the brains. The brawn. And the beauty. I'm a triple threat. This game is like a business trip. I work. I win. And at the end of it all I get paid. One long. Stressful. Business trip. Let's hope that money is worth it all."

End
"Next contestant is here!"
"...Phillip David Williams!"
Phillip got off the boat and walked over to the host.
"You must be Michigan, I dig the outfit," Phillip winked at her.
"Don't flirt with my sister," Caleb warned as he protectively stepped in front of her.
"I can handle myself thank you very much," Michigan moved her brother aside. Although she then glared. "You're the one that punched my boyfriend."
"Your boyfriend? You mean that Darrel guy, oh nah- you got it twisted. We were just hassling around. It's a dudes thing," Phillip brushed it off.
"He has a bruise under his eye," Michigan stated. "Caleb do you believe this?"
Caleb shrugged his bias against Darrel kicking in. "Darrel, looked no different to me."
Michigan rolled her eyes. She looked at Phillip. "Don't mess with him or me."
"I don't know, me and you can do a different kind of messing around if you prefer," Phillip suggested in a playful flirty manner.
"Go now," Caleb ushered him towards the other contestants.
"Alright, alright," He walked off after blowing a quick kiss towards Michigan.
"You better not fall for him," Caleb directed at his sister.
"What can I say, being beautiful is a burden sometimes.." Michigan shrugged. "But, no worries I'm taken."
Phillip looked at who to go to.
As he viewed the woman, he smiled and smoothed back his hair. "Okay casting, you outdid yourself. My oh my."
He ultimately decided to go to Davy first.
"Bro, just got here, and man this cast is looking hot, you mind giving a brother a run down on the ladies," Phillip requested as he nudged Davy. "Also gotta say, your jacket is looking fly as hell."
"Beatrice, give me a moment," Davy placed her down.
Beatrice went off to socialize with others.
Davy then turned back to Phillip.
"Thanks, mate I see we're both rocking the leather," Davy noted, and they fist bumped. "The name's Davy. Also I agreed, this is one fit lot!"
"That crowd is the gay ones," Davy referenced Alanar, Jolt, and he assumed Melissa.
"Okay, so they're off the radar," Phillip nodded his head.
"That one is a treasure," Davy pointed out Uma.
"Okay, definitely looking into that," Phillip nodded with a smile. "For sure on the todo list."
"That one is a bit bonkers," Davy pointed over at Shelby.
"Okay, she wasn't even up for consideration," Phillip took in.
"Got my eye on that one," Davy pointed at Beatrice.
"Okay, but no promises," Phillip said casually.
"And that one..she's um..I don't know," Davy shrugged as he looked at Rosalina. He hadn't talked to her yet.
"What she is, is damn hot," Phillip stated.
Davy laughed at that. "Mate, I feel like we're going to get on well."
"Hey if you want a good time that's what I'm here for," Phillip claimed.
Beatrice was now with Godfrey and Zarian just watching.
"Boys.." Beatrice playfully rolled her eyes.
"It's giving frat boy," Godfrey muttered.
"For sure," Zarian nodded.
Phillip then approached Uma, Rosalina, and Jolt.
He went up to Uma, "Hello sweetheart, the name's Phillip, but you can just call me tonight."
Uma seemed intrigued, but she kept up the seductive coy act. "Hmm, aren't you a confident one.."
"Well confidence never hurt anyone," Phillip took a step forward. "And neither does a little physical action."
"Barf, I'm not staying for this," Jolt made her leave.
Rosalina just watched looking a bit put off.
Uma just giggled, "Let's wait for the game to start. Then we can talk…Sweetheart~"
She walked away purposefully swaying her hips.
Phillip then looked at Rosalina. "You want to get in on that or-"
"Look, I'm not going to entertain whatever this is, I'm here to play a game," Rosalina cut him short.
"Me too," Phillip shrugged. Although he smiled at her amorously. "But I think it'll be more fun if we play together, don't you agree?"
Rosalina's face went red. "Yea, whatever. I don't have time for this."
She trodded off.
"Okay, hun, just know I got all in the time in the world for you," Phillip remarked as he watched her go.
"The next contestant is here-"
"...Mikaio Heath!"
Mikaio got off the boat and his eyes darted all over the place.
"It seems we're in..the pacific ocean.." He just muttered. "On..I forgot the island name, but yea.."
"That is correct, how did you know?" Caleb questioned.
"Just could tell.." Mikaio shrugged. "Anyways, wow there are a lot of people."
"Feel free to join them," Michigan told him.
Mikaio decided to first go to Shelby.
Before he could speak Shelby already was asking him a question. "Hi, I'm Shelby. Quick question, do you think arriving late will affect your social standing with the others? If it does, what does that say about us as society when we allow newcomers to enter into our already preconceived social dynamics?"
"Wow, that's deep.." Mikaio nodded, but he actually was genuinely giving it thought.
"I would say no," Mikaio shook his head.
"Oh wow, thanks for answering." Shelby smiled. "Why would you say so-"
"Cause there are a lot of layers to me..and I definitely believe I can and will shake this game up," Mikaio supplied as an answer.
Shelby was going to continue the discussion, but Godfrey had pulled Mikaio away.
"Hey um word of advice new guy, I wouldn't associate with her..people already think she's weird," Godfrey advised.
"So?" Mikaio tilted his head.
"So people may target her.." Godfrey cleared up.
"And?" Mikaio still didn't care.
"So, that may put a target on you by association," Godfrey specified.
"Well I don't care cause I don't think she's weird, and also I don't care if people target me. I'm not scared to play loose and dangerous," Mikaio responded. "I'll play my own way no matter what."
Zarian and Beatrice joined them.
"Can you guys tell him about the Shelby girl," Godfrey requested.
"I don't know, people seem to dislike her already for some reason.." Beatrice shrugged.
"Yea, I kind of feel bad," Zarian nodded.
Godfrey wanted to face palm. Although he instead smiled. "Whatever, the point is Mikaio we'll be your friends instead. That way you have a better social standing."
"Oh cool," Mikaio nodded.

Phillip David Williams- The Perverted Partier
"The Party God himself has arrived on the scene, and can I say it is a good day to be alive! The girls: 11 out of 10. The boys so far: 9 out of 10, and became a full on 10 once I stepped on the dock. Anyways, I'm Phillip, probably one of the coolest dudes you'll ever meet. I'm a people person. And I get along great with women especially. I mean look at me. In this game I just want to have a good time. No trouble. No issues. Just Phillip, having fun and everyone chillaxing too. Buuutt that doesn't mean I am not playing for the money. If I could get the money and a good chick to make me smile, this charming smile will never be washed away."

Mikaio Heath- The Lax Wander
"Hey, I'm Mikaio and I'm definitely glad for this opportunity. I mean I have no idea what this experience will entail, but I'm honestly interested to see what can happen. I love exploring and traveling, and I think I may have been here..or at least I know the location, but there is still so much of the world I have to see. And so many things I have to do. My strategy for the game. Don't let anyone know my next move. I don't want to be predictable. That's how you lose. So that's why I'll take it day by day. Moment by moment. I won't go for the win, I'll just let the win come to me."
End
"Okay, we have two more to go," Caleb said as he looked down at his watch. "Is Darrel going to come with the ship?"
"He'll be here," Michigan guaranteed.
"Well then here is-"
"...Nicholas Borealis!"
Nicholas stepped off the boat.
"I have arrived, oh and the style in the area has immensely improved," Nicholas stated as he then strutted up to the hosts.
"Nicholas, welcome," Caleb greeted.
"Yes, I'm glad to be here too," Nicholas nodded as he walked along.
As he looked at the crowd of the 14 other contestants he stroked his chin.
Finally he yelled "Everyone freeze!"
Everyone paused, stopping what they were doing.
Nicholas then casually pulled out a canvas and began to draw.
"..why is he bossing us around.." Davy said in between his teeth. "..Davy bends to no man.."
"...Let's just do it.." Beatrice whispered back.
Uma, Godfrey, and Phillip just accepted it and took up stylish poses.
Once Alanar, Tamashini,and Frederick caught on to what he was doing they also took up fashionable poses.
Everyone else was either confused(Shelby, Melissa, Mikaio, Zarian, Beatrice) or annoyed(Jolt, Rosalina, Davy) but did it anyway.
"And done! How excellent!" Nicholas grinned as he held up his finished picture.
"Ohh let me see!" Alanar was the first to run over.
It was a picture of his fellow castmates, although in his own peculiar style.
"I love it," Alanar grinned. "It's nothing like I've seen before."
"Oh, I'm glad that you do," Nicholas smiled at her.
"I can't believe there is another artist," Alanar then stated.
"You're an artist too! How spectacular, we must be friends!" Nicholas put an arm around her.
"Oh um- okay," Alanar accepted, confused, but not against it.
Everyone else went back to doing what they were doing.
Although Frederick ran over to Alanar and Nicholas. "Oooh! Oh! I'm an artist too!"
Nicholas' smile was wiped away.
"Um, sir two is company, three is a crowd," Nicholas deemed shaking his head.
"Ohh.." Frederick frowned. He then looked at Nicholas's picture"..well I like your art, but you got my head off."
Nicholas now looked irritated. "So you think you're better than me?"
"I never said that-" Frederick
"But you never didn't not say that," Nicholas glared.
"What is going on.." Alanar was confused.
"Look, there is no need to be rude-" Tamashini started.
"Back off, the artists are talking," Nicholas cut him off.
"Well excuse me, I know a thing or two about art," Tamashini asserted. "And a thing or two about manners!"
"Really now? Would you like a lesson in them," Nicholas snarked back.
Tamashini clenched his fist.
"No, but I can teach you something else," He made a step towards Nicholas.
"Enough," Alanar got in between the two blue haired boys. "Let's calm down now."
"Frederick ignore him, I know these kinds," Tamashini grabbed Frederick and pulled him away.
"Oh um..okay?" Frederick was innocently confused by what just happened.
"The audacity," Nicholas pinched his nose. "Some people, am I right?"
"Umm..you were a bit ru-..nevermind, let's just talk about-" Alanar decided to change the subject.
"Hey," Shelby was behind Nicholas, which made him jump in surprise.
"Don't scare me like that, I could have like a heart attack or something," Nicholas chided, placing a hand to his chest.
"Unlikely, but um- question: do we say something is beautiful because it is actually beautiful or is something beautiful just because we say it is beautiful," She wondered.
Nicholas blinked being lost.
"I have no clue what you're saying, but I heard a lot of beautiful, which I am, so I like you, and you may stand next to me," Nicholas decided as he pulled her beside him.
"That doesn't answer my question, but I'm leaning towards the former statement, so okay," Shelby shrugged.
"The last contestant has arrived!"
"..Mistral Rivera-Hwang!"
Mistral hopped off the boat.
"Dang, I'm late," Mistral noticed everyone was already there.
"Welcome Mistral," Michigan waved. "Also I have a question. Have you seen a watch? You know that belonged to someone else."
"Sorry, but I don't think I've seen a watch.." Mistral said allusively.
"You sure?" Michigan checked.
Mistral just shrugged as she had nothing else to say.
"Okay, you can go."
Mistral went slipping behind the two of them.
"Yup I don't think I've seen a watch..that belongs to anyone but me," Mistral muttered to herself as she had gotten away with that, and walked past the hosts.
Now everyone was clumped up in small groups/fractions.
Jolt and Rosalina were talking.
Zarian, Godfrey, Beatrice, Mikaio,and Davy were together still discussing what was to come.
Uma and Phillip were flirting.
Tamashini and Frederick were getting to know each other.
Nicholas was showing his art to Shelby and Alanar, who were both
Melissa was by herself tinkering with her invention.
"Jackpot," Mistral's eyes were set on Melissa.
Mistral crept slowly over to Melissa.
"Okay, so if I do this..and put this here.." Melissa worked upon her invention.
Despite being shorter, Mistral hopped up and snatched the contraption.
"Hey! T-that's m-mine," Melissa protested
Mistral held it behind her back. "Well…what exactly is 'that?'"
"I-it's an i-invention!" Melissa attempted to get it back, but Mistral was surprisingly fast.
"That's not very specific," Mistral juggled the invention in her hand.
"C-carefully you'll b-break it!" Melissa feared.
"I would care if I knew what 'it' is," Mistral still managed to keep it away from her. She began messing with the buttons.
"Fine, t-this one is a s-sound r-recorder," Melissa revealed. "Now g-give it b-back!"
"That's actually pretty cool.." Mistral looked at it. She continued to examine it."..I think I'd rather keep it."
"B-but it isn't y-yours!"
"Hmm, how does it work," Mistral ignored what she said.
"You p-probably c-couldn't figure out-"
"'Fine, this one is a sound recorder- now give it back!'" Mistral played back a recording.
She then smirked. "Yea, I think I got it on the function part."
Melissa looked worried.
Mistral laughed at her face. "Gosh, you looked terrified. Honestly relax. I'll give it back..on a condition."
Melissa sighed. "Why d-did I f-feel like t-that was coming."
"Me and you work together, and if you get any information on this little recorder thing that concerns me, you tell me," Mistral declared.
"B-but t-that isn't f-fair, you're b-blackmailing m-me," Melissa crossed her arms.
"Wow really, I didn't realize," Mistral rolled her eyes. "Take it or be screwed."
"I- f-fine-" Melissa gave in.
Mistral then tossed it back to her with a smirk. "And, just know I can expose you have a device that records people if you mess with me or cross me, which I doubt would gain you any favor."

"Hello viewers, I am Nicholas Borealis! I will bring the artistry, the style, and I will bring hopefully all you desire in a contestant. Some may see me as a lot, but I just can't help being me. I mean, you can't change perfection. And I'm close enough to that. I'm hoping that this experience can grant me all the inspiration I need to help me as an artist. Although at the end of the day I'm in this game for myself. So if there should be any proper winner, then it shall be me."

Mistral Rivera-Hwang - The Contrary Hoarder
"The games have begun, and I'm so ready to cause some chaos and mischief! The name's Mistral, and I'm going to be unlike any contestant you've seen before. I'll say and do whatever I want to whoever I want whenever I want. That's how I roll, peeps," She smirked as she relaxed her hands behind her head. "A little trouble always makes things interesting. Besides trouble never hurt anyone..except maybe the people who the trouble occurs to, but eh that won't be my problem! The only problem is the 15 people in the way of me and my money. Trust those people will be dealt with, Mistral style."
End
Melissa was going to respond, but then everyone heard a horn.
"Everyone gather together!" Caleb instructed as he was holding an air horn. "Now that you're all here we can get started."
Everyone turned their attention to Caleb and Michigan.
"So to the 16 of you that are here, look around cause the 15 people you are with are your potential friends, enemies, allies, rivals, etc, although only one person standing here will be the sole survivor and win the prize money!" Michigan went on. "So an official welcome to Total Sole Survivor Season 2: Spies at Sea!"
All 16 of them clapped and cheered.
"Okay, so for the game to begin we gotta get you guys on teams and-" Caleb started.
They then heard the sound of a ship horn.
The noticed a large white cruise ship heading towards the dock.
"There's Darrel," Michigan grinned.
"That's a nice ship.." Uma mused.
"It's really banger," Davy nodded.
"I can't wait!" Beatrice almost jumped into the water, although Davy held her back.
"Hold it," Davy told her.
"Thank you, Davy," Caleb said to him. "And Beatrice..stop being crazy."
"But I- aww," Beatrice frowned.
The boat reached the dock.
Then the door opened and out came Darrel.
Michigan ran to greet him.
"Darrel!" She jumped into his arms.
"That guy is kind of a prick..fyi.." Phillip mentioned to the other contestants.
"I actually ag-gree with t-that.." Melissa crossed her arms.
"He can't be that bad-" Alanar doubted.
"No he's a jerk," Beatrice actually said.
"Oh..well if Beatrice says it then it must be true," Alanar supposed.
"Hey Michy," Darrel planted a kiss on her lips before he put her down. "I see you got all the..los- I mean peeps here."
"Hello Darrel," Caleb said plainly as he walked over him.
"Oh Calley boy is here too, nice," Darrel barely acknowledged him. "Okay, so by the way I already picked teams."
"I didn't give you authority to do that," Caleb stated looking annoyed.
"And that matters to me why?" Darrel waved that off. "But anyways I have the teams together."
"What no-" Caleb started.
"Caleb let's just do it," Michigan said. "He has the teams, it'll save time."
"Fine, but next time you talk with us first," Caleb directed.
"Sure whatever," Darrel punched Caleb's shoulder.
Caleb glared.
"Okay, so this is the teams. Team 1:"
"Godfrey"
Godfrey walked over.
"Jolt."
Jolt walked over, and Godfrey offered her a high five which she accepted.
"Melissa."
Melissa walked over nervously. Jolt sent her a dirty look, while Godfrey also gave her a high five.
"Mikaio."
Mikaio walked over, and Godfrey gave him a high five.
"Mistral."
Mistral skipped over, and stood next with Melissa with a big grin on her face. Melissa scratched her neck anxiously.
"Phillip."
Phillip walked over and high fived everyone.
"Rosalina."
Phillip winked as Rosalina walked over and she rolled her eyes at him in return, before standing next to Jolt.
"And lastly Zarian."
Zarian made his way over and fist bumped everyone.
"So what is our team name?" Godfrey questioned.
"That is what you guys will determine," Caleb told them.
"And that leaves team 2 to be:
"Alanar."
Alanar walked over.
"Beatrice."
Beatrice gave Alanar her pictures and art that were now dry. Alanar thankfully hugged her.
"Davy."
Davy smiled at Beatrice, and she smiled back at him.
"Frederick."
Frederick skipped over and made sure to high five the current members.
"Nicholas."
Nicholas walked over, and turned his head and pointed up his nose as Frederick tried to greet him.
"Shelby."
Nicholas actually smiled as Shelby came over.
"Tamashini."
Tamashini glared as he walked past Shelby and Nicholas but smiled as he stood next to Frederick, who greeted him with a tight hug which made him blush.
"Uma."
Uma walked over in a slow fashion trying to grab attention. Davy and Alanar both watched her, as did some members of the other team.
"Now that we have the teams, we can board the boat!" Caleb announced.
