Here's the Second Part of the First Episode, but the second episode will have to wait until I've finished the first season of my Rick and Morty Fanfic. So enjoy the episode, guys!
With all the campers standing above the edge of a thousand-foot cliff, Chris goes about the instructions of the challenge, "Okay! Today's challenge is threefold. Your first task is to jump off this 1000-foot cliff onto the lake,"
Bridgette takes a peek at the lake below without an ounce of fear, and there are two rings. There was a large ring and a small ring at the very center.
"Piece of cake," Bridgette confidently said,
"If you look down, you will see two target areas," Chris continued, "The wider area represents that we have stocked with psychotic, man-eating sharks,"
True to his word, there were indeed sharks circling beneath the water and jumping out of the water with jagged jaws snapping.
"Inside that area is a safe zone. That's your target area, which, we're pretty sure is shark-free," Chris informed, though the term 'pretty' doesn't sound so trustworthy to believe,
"Excuse me?" Leshawna questioned with a raised eyebrow,
"For each member of the team who jumps and actually... survives. There will be a crate of supplies waiting below," Chris explained, "Inside each crate are supplies you'll need for the second part of the challenge... Building a hot tub. The team with the best hot tub gets to have a wicked hot tub party tonight. The losers will be sending someone home. Killer Bass, you're up first,"
"Oh, wow," Bridgette expressed as some of her confidence faded from seeing the shark fins swimming beneath the large area. Then she turns to her teammates, "So, who wants to go first?"
Everyone was deathly silent a chirping of cricket could be heard around them. Then Owen would be the one to break that silence with a bit of reassurance to both teams, "Hey, don't sweat it, guys. I heard that these shows always make interns do the stunt first to make sure it's survivable,"
"Oh yeah, we totally did that," Chris confirmed, though the tone he used didn't sound so assuring,
What comes next is Wednesday walking towards the edge and looking down at the bottom of the cliff. After she straightened her posture and asked the following question, "So... To reiterate your rules, McClean. You want us to jump over a thousand feet and plummet our way through shark-infested waters?"
"That's about the gist of it," Chris confirmed,
"For that..." Wednesday turned to the host and smiled which felt so unnerving that it shuddered the weak-willed among the Screaming Gophers and even the Killer Bass. The rest just stared with widened eyes before everyone heard her next words, "You've earned my interest,"
Wednesday then deliberately lets herself fall despite the obvious danger and a few of the Killer Bass members gasped before walking over to the edge to see her descent.
Sometime later, she's made a splash on the lake. But when she surfaced, she looked around and noticed that she had landed within the safe zone instead of the shark-infested zone. Her opinion of her success was discontent especially when Chef drove a boat to pick her up.
Once she's aboard, she expresses her discontent to the only person near her, the Chef himself, "I've missed my mark. May I try again?"
Chef only raised an eyebrow upon Wednesday's request, but he shook his head rather than provide an answer. Thus, Wednesday sat down and watched her fellow team members from below.
The next jumper would be Caine as he looked down from the edge. Then Chris had something to say on the matter, "What's the matter? Too high for you, Caine?"
"Trying to instill doubt over me, Chris?" Caine said, then took several steps back "If so, they won't work,"
"Really? Then why are you walking backward?" Heather asked with a condescending tone in her voice and arms crossed,
"Nothing beats a jump without a running start!" Caine told, ran towards the edge, and performed a backflip as he fell straight to the water,
The Killer Bass and even a few Screaming Gophers would watch as he descends towards the water. But they soon noticed that his drop had landed him a few meters away from the safe zone. Therefore, he was now in shark-infested waters. The only thing visible were bubbles popping from the surface of the water...
"Uh... He isn't surfacing," Trent remarked,
"Think he's dead?" Duncan inquired much to everyone's dread,
"Probably," Gwen presumed,
"Well... So much for him," Chris said, "Whose-"
"Wait, Dudes! Something's coming out of the water!" Geoff pointed out as more bubbles began to surface,
This made everyone, even Chris, look down from the cliff edge and witness something they didn't expect to see. What had emerged from the lake was one of the sharks that Chris placed beforehand, and Caine was on top of its head with a mad grin on his face.
He also had his fist raised and struck the shark by the eye hard before being taken back into the water. Moments later, Caine surfaced from the water and the shark that attacked him was fleeing from him, "Yeah! That's what you get, you over-sized pile of sushi!"
"D-Did he just punches a shark?" Courtney said, looking baffled by what she and everyone had witnessed,
"In the face? Yes, He did," Chris said with a smirk, "Guess I was wrong about him,"
This earned him a lot of looks from the contestants...
CONFESSIONAL - HEATHER
"Seriously? Who is this guy?" Heather demanded with a frown if someone like Chris wanted him to be part of the show. Should Caine stay in the competition any longer, he may pose a serious threat to her in the future,
After everything that just went down, Chef drove the boat to pick Caine up and he commented, "Boy, you are one tough nut if I ever seen one,"
"Thanks, though I've faced worse before the sharks here," Caine said, then Chef took him towards the shore where Wednesday was,
They don't talk about what happened, instead, she is fixated on the others standing above the cliff, "How many do you think will survive after they jump?"
"Assuming that they land in the shark zone than safe zone, I'd say all of them given how close I landed near the safe zone," Caine presumed,
Just then, Bridgette would be the next to take a jump and land right into the safe zone. The next was Geoff, who was cheering and laughing on the way down.
"Look out below!" Eva yelled as she jumped down,
Duncan didn't care in the slightest as he had his arms crossed and fell with crossed arms and a straight posture.
As for the next jumper, DJ, he shook a little and backed away from the edge, "Uh-uh. No way, man,"
"Scared of heights?" Chris asked,
"Yeah. Ever since I was a kid," DJ admitted,
"That's alright big guy, Chris reassured, earning DJ's smile. But that was soon lost by what he said next, "Unfortunately, that also makes you a chicken! So you'll have to wear this for the rest of the day,"
"Aw, man. For real?" DJ frowned as he wore a chicken head,
"Bawk! Bawk! Bawk!" Chris mocked with a little chicken dance before pointing to an escalator, conveniently placed at the opposite side of the cliff, "That means the chicken path down is that-a-way. Next!"
DJ slumped as he walked towards the escalator while Ezekiel jumped, "Yeeeeee-haaaaaw!"
But on the way down, Ezekiel ends up hitting a rock on the cliffside causing him to spin but still lands in the safe zone. When he surfaced, some of his teammates cheered for him and Ezekiel sent a thumbs-up at them.
"He'll be feeling for a while," Caine remarked,
"Yes!" Harold exclaimed and jumped off the cliff while doing the splits. This would turn out badly for him as he landed on the water... crotch first...
"AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHH!" Harold screamed in pain while almost everyone, even the sharks, winced, cringed, and hissed as he screamed at the top of his lungs. He lets out another scream before eventually sinking into the water with his hands over his crotch,
"And he wouldn't be feeling anything down there anymore," Wednesday remarked, unfazed by what unfolded before her eyes,
Her fellow Killer Bass shot strange looks at her while Duncan was the only one to express their opinion of her, "Seriously... You're dark and weird,"
"Ooooh!" Chris laughed with amusement while he stood next to Courtney, "Hate to see that happen,"
"Excuse me, Chris. I have a medical condition," Courtney said,
"What condition?" Chris inquired,
"A condition that prevents me from jumping off cliffs," Courtney said in an obvious tone,
"You can chicken out if you want," Chris offered with a smug look, "But it might end up costing your team the win. And then they'll hate you,"
"It's a calculated risk," Courtney said confidently with arms crossed, "I've seen the other team, and I don't think ten of them will jump,"
"All right, here is your chicken hat," Chris declared and put a chicken headwear on Courtney. Then he took out his clipboard and went over the numbers, "So let's tally up the results. Hold on. That eight jumpers and two chickens. We're missing two,"
These two are Sadie and Izzy, with the former holding tightly to Katie's hand, "I'm not jumping without Katie!"
"We have to be on the same team, Chris," Katie pleaded,
"Please! Please! Can we? Can we, Chris? Can we? Can we?" Both Sadie and Kaite constantly asked,
"I'll switch places with her," Izzy offered,
"Alright, fine!" Chris relented with an irritated look, "You're both on the Killer Bass now. Izzy, you're on the Screaming Gophers,"
Izzy smiled and shrugged as she headed over to the Screaming Gophers while Katie and Sadie hugged each other, "Yes!"
"That means you're up, girls," Chris said,
"We're coming, Killer Bass!" Both girls yelled and jumped together,
As soon as they made it, Chris tallies up the final results and turns to the Screaming Gophers, "So that's ten jumpers and two chickens. Screaming Gophers, if you can beat that we'll throw in a pull cart you can put your crates on,"
"Nice! Okay, guys, who's up first?" Trent spoke up,
"I'm sorry. There's no way I'm doing this," Heather firmly rejected with arms crossed,
Why not?" Beth asked,
"Um, hello, National TV. I'll get my hair wet," Heather revealed as if it wasn't obvious enough,
"If she's not doing it, I'm not doing it," Lindsay followed as she and Heather smirked at each other,
"Oh, you're doing it," Leshawna told in an aggressive tone while going right into Heather's face,
"Say's who?" Heather questioned as she glared at her,
"Says me!" Leshawna yelled back as she glared right back at Heather, "I'm not losing this challenge 'cause you got your hair day, you spoiled little daddy's girl,"
"Back off, ghetto-glamour, too-tight-pants-wearing, rap-star wannabe," Heather insulted,
"Mall-shopping, ponytail-wearing, teen-girl-reading, peeking in high school prom queen!" Leshawna insulted back as she didn't let up with her,
Heather was silent for a time, then smirked by saying, "Well, at least I'm popular,"
Most of the Screaming Gophers winced at this, while some smirked and Justin paid more attention to his reflection over the catfight. Sometime later, Leshawna gets right into Heather's face, "You're jumping!"
"Make me!" Heather challenged, and Leshawna did just that by lifting her above her head and throwing her off the cliff,
Heather was screaming all the way down and somehow managed to land in the safe zone. Though she wasn't pleased one bit by what she did to her, "Leshawna, you are so dead!"
CONFESSIONAL - WEDNESDAY
"I must admit... Watching opposing teammates quarrel and throw the other off the cliff is amusing," Wednesday remarked with an amused smile, "Perhaps coming to this show wasn't a mistake after all,"
"Hey, I threw you into the safe zone, didn't I?" Leshawna yelled, "Now I just hope I can hit it, too,
Leshawna started screaming as she jumped off the cliff next and successfully landed in the safe zone with Heather. Still glaring at her for getting her hair wet and throwing her off the cliff into shark-infested waters.
"She did it! Yeah! Yeah! I'm next!" Tyler expressed, and ran off the edge of the cliff to dive into the lake, "Cowabunga!"
Unfortunately for him, he'd reached the safe zone but landed hard on one of the floating buoys. Tyler deeply groans in pain and slides into the water afterward.
"He'll be feeling that all week..." Caine and Wednesday said in unison, though the two briefly glanced at each other and then back at the cliff as more of the Screaming Gophers jumped over the cliff.
"Yikes!" Chris remarked but didn't seem to mind as he turned to Lindsay. Who was next after Tyler and scared by what had happened,
"I thought this was going to be a talent contest," Lindsay thought with a frightened tone,
"Hahaha, yeah," Chris sarcastically laughed, "No,"
Lindsay would soon jump and scream all the way down, flailing her arms and legs around. Up next was Gwen falling and screaming her way down, then Cody frantically flailing his arms and legs around, Izzy cheering her way down the cliff with arms and legs stretched out, and Justin graciously falling from the cliff and into shark-infested waters.
The Scream Gophers tried to warn Justin about the approaching sharks, but when they stuck their head out. They were greeted with a gorgeous view of Justin's bare body and complexion and their eyes soon formed hearts after being charmed by his good looks.
One of the sharks even allowed Justin to stand over its head and be taken on the shore before jumping down. Up next was Beth, who hesitated over the height of the cliff, "I... I can't do it! I'm too scared!"
Chris then brought out the chicken headwear while Beth brought up her hands by the sides of her mouth, "I'm sorry!"
Some of the Screaming Gophers mocked Beth by doing a chicken dance while Lindsay had a say in the matter, "That is, like, so lame,"
"Fully lame," Heather agreed,
"Weren't you thrown off the cliff earlier?" Wednesday remarked in the audible distance,
"Mind your own team, Miss Darkshine!" Heather yelled,
"I've heard better insults than that," Wednesday rebuked, not offended in the slightest,
After Beth had taken the escalator down, Trent walked past Owen for a high five, "Let's do this!"
Trent jumps with a cheer and lands in the safe zone. Thus, Owen is the last Gopher to remain on the cliff and Chris brings out a megaphone, "There's only one person left. You guys need this jump for the win!"
After that, he turns to Owen, "No pressure, dude..."
Owen makes a small smile, but that disappears when Chris quickly reveals the truth, "Okay, there's pressure!"
The Screaming Gophers below cheered for the big guy while the Killer Bass watched. Owen would put some floaties on his arms and breathe a few times.
CONFESSIONAL - OWEN
"Oh, I was pretty darn nervous!" Owen admitted, "See, the thing is, I'm not that strong a swimmer,"
CONFESSIONAL - GEOFF
"I'm looking at this guy and thinking, there's no way he's gonna make it," Geoff said,
CONFESSIONAL - GWEN
"I actually thought, if he jumps this... He's gonna die," Gwen bluntly admitted,
"Take a good run at it, buddy! You can do this," Chris encouraged as Owen takes a few steps away from the cliff,
"I'm going to die now, I'm going to freaking die now!" Owen admitted and turned toward the cliff. After a few seconds of suspense, Owen clenched his knuckles, shut his eyes, and calmed himself while everyone kept their eyes on him.
"Come on, big guy," Leshawna hoped, that Owen would guarantee them a win and the carts to pull their crates,
After Owen opened his eyes, let out a battlecry as he charged toward the cliff, "YEEEEAAAAAHHHHHH! OOOOOOH CRAAAAAAAAAP!"
While he was falling fast from a thousand-foot cliff, Caine sighed and walked fast to the nearest and largest rock where he wouldn't get hit by the impending splash. Wednesday took notice and followed suit, and that's where the former openly remarked, "Guess we're pushing crates then..."
*SPLAAAAAAASSSSSHHHHHHHH!*
After the splash had passed, the two left the rock formation and Owen quickly surfaced from the water, "Yes! Yeah! Oh yeah! Who's the man?"
The Screaming Gophers cheered for the big guy while most of the Killer Grip slumped down for losing the first part of the challenge, especially when Chris announced, "The Winners! The Screaming Gophers!"
"That was awesome, dude!" Trent praised from the boat, then he noticed Owen looking around the water, "What's wrong?"
"I, uh... Think I lost my bathing suit," Owen awkwardly admitted, and a lot of campers made several disgusted remarks,
As Chris promised, the Screaming Gophers were given carts to carry their crates and the Killer Bass pushed theirs. The ones with the least difficulties in moving them were Duncan, DJ, and especially Eva since they're the strongest while the rest paired up and moved the crates across the sand.
"Ow! I think J just got a splinter," Courtney placed as she pulled her hand from the crate while Caine briefly stopped to look at her,
Eva then walked up to Courtney and Caine and lifted their crate off the sand effortlessly, "Shut it and move your crate, chicken!"
She then aggressively set the crate back down and continued with hers.
"Hey! I'm the only one with C.I.T camping experience here," Courtney clarified, then pointed her thumb at herself, "You need me,"
"And I have done more than what you call experience, Chicken," Wednesday snidely remarked as she showed no struggle in pushing her crate with Harold, "If I were you, I'd listen to Eva,"
Courtney frowned while the others kept to themselves and moved their crates. As time passed, Ezekiel stopped pushing a crate with Geoff and Bridgette for a specific reason, "I gotta take a wiz, ay,"
"Hurry up. We're already behind," Eva stated,
"Ooh, I have to go too," Katie said,
"You do?" Sadie inquired, and her best friend nodded, "Oh my gosh, me too!"
"Then get going already," Caine stated,
While those three went to the woods to do their business, the C.I.T. had an unfortunate incident when a large fly approached her face and quickly swatted it. However, she ends up hitting herself in the eye, "Ow! I think something just bit me,"
Caine walks over and notices the dead fly on the ground, "Oh... That was a black fly that bit you,"
"What?! What's going to happen to me?!" Courtney exclaimed while covering the eye bitten by the black fly,
"Nothing too serious... Apart from some swelling in your eye," Caine revealed, pulling out a long handkerchief, and folding it up into a bandage, "Turn around,"
Courtney complied as she turned around, and Caine started wrapping the handkerchief around the area where the black fly bit her. Once the knot's been applied properly, Caine pulls his hands away, "There. Until your eye swells down on its own. You'll be wearing for a while,"
"It doesn't feel so bad... Thanks," Courtney thanked, and Caine just nodded before the two pushed their respective crate again,
"Don't mention it, now let's get these crates moving again," Caine said and started pushing again. Courtney smiled and helped him out afterward.
Katie, Sadie, and Ezekiel soon returned after they'd done their business in the woods. Eva would be the first to ask them as they needed the crates to move again, "Feel better?"
"Yep! Katie and Sadie replied, and Ezekiel just nodded before going back to pushing crates. But that lasted for a couple of minutes when Sadie and Katie looked rather uncomfortable all of a sudden and they looked at each other.
"Ew, something's itching me," Sadie remarked, "Are you itchy, too?"
"Totally itchy," Katie affirmed as she nodded, "Really bad,"
It went on for a few more minutes and their bottoms were turning red.
"Ooh, it's really itching now," Sadie complained,
"Mine feels like it's burning," Katie added,
"Okay, I have to scratch!" Both girls declared as they stopped pushing their crates and frantically scratched their butts,
As they were doing this, Chris came to the Killer Bass driving on an ATV, "You guys are way behind the other team. Like, way behind. What's the problem?"
"Their butts are itchy," Courtney told,
"Uh..." Chris trailed off as he eyed the handkerchief wrapped around her right eye,
"A black fly bit her," Caine revealed, "Wrapped it up until this challenge is over and her swelling goes down,"
While the two girls were scratching their butts, Wednesday approached them with a clear idea of what was going on. But she had to confirm her suspicions first before reaching the conclusion, "I want you both to answer my questions clearly, and we will know what's going on. Do you understand?"
"Sure!" Both girls replied,
"When both of you squatted in the woods. Was there a small grove of plants?" Wednesday inquired,
"Yeah," Katie replied while scratching
"Oval-shaped, green, and all over the place," Sadie added also scratching,
"Were they low to the ground? About this big?" Wednesday inquired while gesturing her hands to describe the possible size of the leaves,
Katie and Sadie frantically nodded while still scratching, and then Wednesday concluded on the cause of their misery, "You both squatted on poison ivy,"
The two girls were silent, then they started screaming and panicking from the situation as well as scratching their butts against the sand. Wednesday watched with vacant eyes while Chris laughed, "Hahahaha! No way! That's awesome! Hahahaha!"
Caine only sighed at this, before going over to DJ, "Hey, DJ. Think you could lend me a hand?"
"What for?" DJ asked,
"Sadie and Katie's crate. Stack it above yours and start pushing," Caine instructed, "If you can't move it all on your own. Let me know,"
"Alright, sure," DJ replied. The two then picked up Sadie and Katie's crate, stacked it on top of the other crate and everyone started moving again while Sadie and Katie tended to their itching issue...
SCREAMING GOPHERS...
Due to the advantage of the carts, the Screaming Gophers were all back at camp with opened crates even though Chris made a rule that they had to open with their teeth.
"Hey check it out!" Owen said as he pulled out the contents of his crate, "I got wood!"
"I got some tools here," Trent listed as he pulled out a hammer from his crate and then a thick layered sheet, "And what looks like a pool liner,"
While most of the Screaming Gophers checked the contents of their opened crates, Heather and Lindsay approached Leshawna with the former starting with, "I just wanted to say, I didn't mean bad about you being a ghetto, rap-star wannabe. And I love your earrings. They're so pretty,"
"Straight up?" Leshawna questioned, and Heather nodded, "Well, I'm sorry about pushing you over the cliff and all,"
"No worries," Heather reassured, "I needed a push. Truce?"
"Yeah, yeah. You got it," Leshawna agreed and both shook on it,
Then Heather and Lindsay walked away, but started a conversation far from Leshawna's earshot with the latter asking, "Did you mean all that stuff you said to Lefonda back there?"
"Leshawna," Heather corrected before rolling her eyes, "Hah, no. She's going down. And P.S. those are the ugliest earrings I've seen in my life,"
"Oh..." Lindsay said, though she looked rather confused, "So if you hate her why were you being nice to her?"
"You ever seen one of these shows before?" Heather inquired as if the answer was obvious as it is, "Keep your friends close and your enemies closer,"
"Oooooh..." Lindsay mouthed as she understood. But she would ask a different question afterward, "I'm your friend, right?"
"Oh yeah," Heather reassured, "For now,"
After a few minutes, the Killer Bass arrived at the camp with their crates and looked tired from all their pushing.
"Finally," Harold expressed,
"Hey, what's up, guys," Trent casually greeted,
"Hey, aren't you guys missing a couple of white girls" Leshawna inquired,
"Oh, um..." Courtney trails off, and shifted her visible eye around for a valid excuse for their absences, "They're just... getting a drink,"
"Yeah," Harold smirked, then leans close to Ezekiel for a whisper, "If they drink with their butts,"
Ezekiel laughed in response to the joke, "That's funny,"
"And what's with the bandage around your head? Did you get your eye plucked out there?" Owen asked, which earned another round of weird looks from both Killer Bass and Screaming Gophers.
"She got bitten on the eye by a black fly," Caine said, "I patched it up, and she'll be wearing it until the swelling goes down,"
"Oh... I see," Owen understood,
"That being said, it's to get to work," Caine declared, "We can't let ourselves be idle now,"
"Who died and made you a leader?" Duncan asked,
"Do you have any better ideas, Duncan?" Caine questioned with arms crossed,
Duncan was silent, then he shrugged his shoulders before Caine began, "Good, because I want you, Eva, and DJ to open the crates since you three are the strongest. If you need assistance, just ask I'll have someone Geoff or myself aid you. Bridgette, I want you to get Sadie and Katie out of the water and here. We'll need them as you, Ezekiel, Courtney, and those two haul the contents of each crate,"
"Why do I get to haul out what's inside?" Courtney inquired,
"Think you could hammer some nails without hurting yourself? Even with your one eye shut?" Caine questioned,
"Fair point," Courtney understood since her closed eye can be a liability,
"As for the two of you," Caine said as he turned to Wednesday and Harold, "How good are you in tools and assembly?"
"I could make a hang glider out of an old tent and sticks," Harold revealed,
"And I built a steam-powered guillotine when I was ten," Wednesday replied,
Knowledge of the latter gained some looks towards the girl, but Caine paid no attention to it as he set his priorities straight, "Okay. You two will handle the tools and nailwork of the tub. After all the crates are open, we'll be coming to haul the stuff to you or assist you in building the tub,"
Those two nodded, and Caine clapped his hands once as he loudly declared, "Alright, Let's get to work!"
"Yeah!" Geoff expressed with a raised fist, and a few of the Killer Bass members shared the same enthusiasm as him,
While everyone got to work, Courtney couldn't help but smile at what she witnessed.
CONFESSIONAL - COURTNEY
"Though I'm the only one with C.I.T Training in the team. Caine is quite an efficient and observant leader," Courtney admitted with a modest tone still wearing the bandage around her swollen eye, "I mean, everyone here is still new to me. Yet, he knew who was best for the role and offered the best hands to aid them. Though I hate to admit it, he may even be a better leader than I am,"
A few hours later, the two teams were standing with their respective hot tubs. And the only judge here would be Chris as he inspected the Screaming Gophers first.
After considering the state of their tub, he's made his opinion quite clear, "This is one awesome hot tub!"
The Gophers cheered in response and Owen emerged from within the tub. Then Chirs moves on with the Killer Bass' Hot Tub. Though it was built, it was a clear rush job due to how short the time had taken to build it.
Therefore, Chris had this to say especially when he checked the overall integrity of the tub, "I've got to say... The tub looks fine, but there's a bunch of tape used, and a few leaks of water can be seen. For that, we have a clear winner. The Screaming Gophers!"
The Screaming Gophers began cheering upon their victory while the Killer Bass didn't any or react upon their defeat. Chris, on the other hand, has more to say of the matter, "Gophers, you're safe from elimination and you get to rock this awesome hot tub for the rest of the summer. Bonus!"
Chris then turned to the Killer Bass Team, "Killer Bass, I appreciate the teamwork and effort you've put into your hot tub. But still, it sucks to be you right now. I'll see you guys at the bonfire tonight,"
"We won!" Lindsay cheered with a big smile on her face, "We all get to stay here for another three days!"
She, Heather, and Lindsay cheered in unison, but the mood was killed by Owen completely naked after he jumped out of the hot tub, "Woohoo! Woohoo! Hahaha. Yes! We get to sta-a-a-ay! We get to sta-a-a-ay, we are so awesome. We won the contest!"
Owen wrapped both Heather and Lindsay into a hug with one arm each. The latter smiling and the former cringing in disgust.
"This isn't the end," Wednesday remarked,
"No, Wednesday... This is only the beginning," Caine clarified,
MAIN LODGE
Everyone was once again together in the main lodge to eat what could be more or less called food. Though the Gophers were all slimes and enjoying themselves over their victory, some things were more tense at the Bass table over a certain topic.
Who would be the first among them to leave the Island...
"So, uh... What do you do now?" Katie awkwardly asked,
"We need to figure out who to vote off," Courtney stated,
"Well, I think it should be a princess here," Duncan suggested as he pointed at the C.I.T. girl. Then towards DJ "Or the brick house here,"
"What? Why?!" Courtney exclaimed in surprise,
"Because, unless I'm mistaken, you two are the only ones here wearing chicken hats," Duncan pointed out, and almost everyone looks at said chicken hats, "And if we ever have to lift a truck, I like our odds with the guy,"
DJ smiled at Duncan's defense while Courtney expressed disbelief before feeling defensive, "You guys need me. I'm the only one-"
"We know," Bridgette said with rolled eyes and slightly annoyed, "Who used to be a real C.I.T. so would you pick?"
"Well... What about..." Courtney looked around, then her eyes landed on a certain girl among them, which was Wednesday, "Her!"
"Then I'd object to your suggestion," Caine interjected, "Despite what you all think of her. Wednesday has proved herself in the first half of the challenge by being the first to jump into shark-infested waters and contributing to making our hot tub with her engineering skills. Voting her off would prove detrimental in the long run,"
"I didn't ask for your defense, but I'll accept it nonetheless," Wednesday nonchalantly said,
"So it's settled? We're voting off princess here?" Duncan presumed,
"Not just yet..." Caine stated, "There are still a few other things we need to take into account. Settling on the first choice now isn't an opinion,"
"Really? And who would you suggest?" Bridgette questioned,
"Though I might earn some spite out of this. I'd pick one of the girls who squatted themselves on poison ivy," Caine suggested, and this made Katie and Sadie hug each other out of concern,
"Why would say that?!" Katie exclaimed,
"It's not like we knew!" Sadie followed,
"Sorry girls, but it's either one of you, Courtney, or DJ," Caine stated, "Anyone else, myself included, wouldn't be considered an opinion due to what we've done,"
"Well, you guys do that. I've had enough prison food for one day," Duncan insisted as he stood up from his chair, "I'm gonna go have a nap,"
"You can't do that!" Courtney scolded as Duncan walked out of the lodge, "We haven't decided who's going yet,"
"Let him go," Caine said, "One person leaving the discussion isn't that big of an issue,"
"I still don't get why you didn't jump, DJ," Ezekiel spoke towards the tallest guy on the Bass table, "Why are you stooping down to the girl's level, ay?"
This comment soon led to silence as everyone from the Bass table, and even some over the Gophers table turned to Ezekiel with widened eyes.
"Uh... what?" DJ inquired. making sure he heard him right,
"Well, look around, ay," Ezekiel remarked as he literally gestured to Beth and Courtney, "The only ones with chicken hats are the girls, ay. You're a guy. You're better than that,"
Katie and Sadie gasped in shock while everyone from both tables had their attentions fixated on Ezekial, many of which were glaring daggers at him.
"What's that supposed to mean?" Brigette aggressively asked,
"Yeah, Homeschool," Eva inquired, and pounded her fist against the table near Ezekiel, "Enlighten us!
"Well. Guys are much stronger and better at sports than girls are," Ezekiel stated without filter, and it caused some of the guys near him to back away while every girl present was giving looks that would burn homeschool into ash.
Even Wednesday, who seemed to keep herself calm with a vacant look, was expressing her distaste toward Ezekiel's sexist statement by crushing her glass with a single hand,
"Oh, dude!" Geoff facepalmed and shook his head, "You did not just say that,"
"My dad told me to look out for the girls here, ay," Ezekiel said, with crossed arms and as well a nod of his head, "And help them in case they can't keep up,"
Bridgette gritted her teeth as Eva grabbed Ezekiel by the neck and lifted him up like he didn't weigh anything at all, "Still think we need your help keeping up?"
"Uh..." Ezekiel trailed off with a slightly frightened tone, "Not really,"
"Okay, guys, let's give him a break," Geoff reasoned as he tried to play the peacemaker role to get the heat off Ezekiel as Eva harshly dropped him on the ground, "I mean, at least he doesn't think that guys are smarter than girls,"
"But, they are," Ezekiel remarked,
This caused Eva to growl and raise her fist high to bash the homeschool's head in. But someone had to intervene, "Enough!"
The Killer Bass soon fixated their gaze upon Caine as he raised his voice, but still maintained their fierce glares, "It's clear that we've made a decision. But I suggest you stay your fists and glares elsewhere. He isn't worth the effort,"
Eva stared at his stern eyes, then lowered her fist and sat down while still glaring at Ezekiel for what he said. The same goes for the other girls of the Killer Bass. Thus, the one voted off from the island was made clear...
THAT NIGHT...
The Killer Bass had gathered around by the campfire pit, and all the girls still glared at Ezekiel. Duncan, after being informed of what transpired in the main lodge was sitting next to himself with a remark, "Dude, you've got a lot to learn about the real world,"
"Killer Bass," Chris called in a serious tone, and a tray filled with 11 marshmallows, "Marshmallows represent a tasty treat that you enjoy roasting by the fire. At this camp marshmallows represent life,"
Geoff dramatically made a hanging gesture before looking at Bridgette and winking. The surget girl nodded as well as giggled at the joke he'd made.
"You've all cast your votes and made your decision. There are only eleven marshmallows on this plate. When I call your name, come up and claim your marshmallow. The camper who does not receive a marshmallow tonight must immediately return to the Dock of Shame to catch the Boat of Losers. That means you're out of the contest and you can't come back... ever!"
"The first marshmallow goes to... Geoff," Chris announced, and Geoff went and claimed the marshmallow to have on his stick,
"Caine, Wednesday, Harold," Chris called out next, and they claimed their marshmallows from the plate,
"Yes!" Harold cheered as he claimed his marshmallow,
Caine and Wednesday only took their marshmallows and nodded at each other before sitting down,
"Katie, Bridgette, DJ, Sadie," Chris called out, and the four campers up and eagerly collected their marshmallow,
"Oh, yay!" Sadie and Katie expressed in unison and hugged each other, "Thank you. Thank you. Thank you,"
"Duncan," Chris called, and the delinquent smirked as he collected his marshmallow,
And then there was one marshmallow and two campers, Courtney and Ezekiel, "Campers, this is the final marshmallow of the evening,"
These two would tense up as Chris dramatized the moment when Courtney's heart was racing and Ezekiel shaking like a leaf. It lasted for a few minutes, but Chris would finally call out the final camper who would be staying on the island, "Courtney,"
She quickly smiled, grabbed her stick, and received her marshmallow while Ezekiel sighed as he slumped down.
"Can't say I'm shocked. I say you picking your nose, dude. Not cool," Chris remarked, though most of the girls rolled their eyes for the obvious reason over Ezekiel's elimination, "Dock of Shame is that way, bro,"
Everyone watched as Ezekiel walked down the dock of shame, and the boat driven by Chef in the challenge earlier had arrived to pick him up and take him away from Camp Wawanakwa and off Total Drama Island Forever...
"The rest of you, enjoy your marshmallows," Chris said, "You're all safe... for tonight,"
CONFESSIONAL - GWEN
"Yep, this camp pretty much still stinks," Gwen expressed, "But now that I'm here. I guess I might as well actually try to win,"
"To the Screaming Gophers!" Cody cheered as he and his team enjoyed a nighttime hot tub party,
"To the Screaming Gophers!" The rest of the Gophers cheered,
"Go Gophers! Go Gophers!" Leshawna chanted as she started dancing around in victory,
Shortly, Owen and Noah joined Leshawna in dancing around and chanting, "Go Gophers! Go Gophers! Go Gophers! Go Gophers! Go, go, go, Gophers!"
Meanwhile, the Killer Bass were walking back to their cabins and passing by the Gophers. Courtney would glance at them and don a fierce look, then she felt a hand pressed on her shoulder.
"Let them savor the victory," Caine advised, "This only just begun..."
"Yeah, you're right," Courtney agreed, then she turned to the camera after she spotted it, "Are you recording this? Good. Just as Caine said, they can enjoy their little party all they want, but I am gonna win this competition and no one is gonna stop me,"
With that, the Killer Bass returned to the cabins and earned themselves tonight's rest. This was one of many challenges to have in Total Drama Island...
That is it for this episode, guys! And I will say again, I will continue to work on this fanfic after I've finished writing season 1 of my Rick and Morty Fanfic.
It'll take a while, but I will pull through it all and continue this story until the end of Total Drama Island and there's so much to work on.
That is all I have to say, and I'll see you all soon!
