Another chapter is done! Enjoy!

Here's a recap on who's alive:

Dopey Doves: SpongeBob, Candy, Tiff, Pizza Cookie, Robina, Cash, Roger Rabbit, Caitlin, Jim, and Steve

Running Roosters: Cosmi, Lucy, Jude, Mint Choco Cookie, Tuff, Natalya, Cocoa Cookie, Dahlia, Nikolai, Komaru, Wyatt, and Cindy

"Last time on Total Drama: Despair Island, the teams had to deal with a maze full of fears! After some chaos and many medical issues, Running Roosters win the challenge thanks to Cosmi."

"In the end, Toko was the next person to die because she forced a few contestants to face their fears despite their protests. 22 left, who would die tonight? Find out on Total…Drama…Despair Island!" Starkweather said, concluding the recap.

Suddenly, he gets a phone call from Mr. Nasty.

"Excellent work on the challenge, Mr. Starkweather." Mr. Nasty laughed.

"Thank you so much for the compliment," Starkweather said. "Any updates on George?"

"Nope. He hasn't exposed us so far though. Don't worry, I'm watching him very closely." Mr. Nasty explained.

"Good. Anything else?" Starkweather asked him.

"Not really. I mean, they had made missing posters for the contestants, trying to figure out what happened to them." Mr. Nasty told him.

"Good thing we fooled them so easily." Starkweather chuckled. "As long as Chris doesn't remember Pahkitew Island, we should be good."

It's been a few days since Toko's elimination. Dopey Doves and Running Roosters decided to go sit at the campfire one night. They also took their dinner with them.

"When I get home, I'm immediately getting a new hairstyle," Caitlin cried out. "This mullet sucks!"

"Don't feel bad, Caitlin," Cindy said. "We all have bad haircuts in our lives. Once, Will attempted to comb and put my hair in a ponytail. It went wrong and I didn't speak to him for a few days. He eventually apologized, but I still cried."

"Aw, how sweet to share the same problem in the past," Caitlin said, slowly starting to stop crying.

"Anyway got any plans for when they get out of this alive?" Mint Choco Cookie asked everyone. "I'm curious about this."

"When I get home, I'm going to resume back to what I was doing," Dahlia said.

"Same. I have a job back home." Nikolai chuckled.

"Well, if me or Tuff make it out alive, it's our job to take good care of Kirby," Tiff said.

"Dude, I know Kirby. He's that pink puffball that copies abilities, right?" Jude asked her.

"Yep." Tiff nodded.

"Sweet." Jude smiled.

"I'm going to get an autobiography written down about my experience and how I survived," Steve said. "As a film director, I want people to know about this game and the sick people behind it."

"I'm going to reunite with Mercedes if I escape the game," Candy stated. "Mercedes is my girlfriend."

"So you're gay?" Tuff asked her homophobically.

"Actually, I'm bisexual. I date both guys and girls." Candy answered.

Komaru looked at everyone, still sad about Toko's death. After she finished eating, she walked away.

"What's her problem?" Dahlia asked, annoyed.

"She's still very upset about Toko's elimination y'know," Candy replied.

"Don't worry. She'll be fine." Dahlia laughed.

"What if she isn't?" Mint Choco Cookie asked her. "You aren't funny Dahlia."

"Boo hoo…she lost her friend or girlfriend or whatever the fuck that psycho was to her. Not like I care about it at all," Dahlia shouted.

"Same!" Nikolai laughed.

(Confessional: Nikolai)

"Hanging out with Dahlia is the best thing I ever had. Right next to getting paid by Umbrella for collecting data in Raccoon City. Thank goodness Jill isn't here to call me out for my actions there…"

(Confessional: Cindy)

"I just hope that Caitlin will enjoy her new hairstyle. I mean, it can't be that bad to cry about, right?"

The next scene cuts to morning where it's very sunny and a little cloudy. Everyone was sleeping peacefully when the PA came on.

"Good morning, campers! Please report to the stage for your next challenge." Starkweather said.

The two teams got out of bed and went over to the amphitheater, where everyone was sitting quietly as they waited for the announcement of the next challenge.

"Are we going to be doing a musical?" Cocoa Cookie asked.

"I don't know. But if it's a singing challenge…" Mint Choco Cookie stated.

"I'm sorry, but it's not," Starkweather said as he got up into the stage. "Welcome to your next challenge! The producers told me to do something simple this time and I'm hosting a talent show!"

"Yes! About time!" Mint Choco Cookie smiled. "Perfect way to show off my musical talent!"

"Each team has eight hours to pick their three or four most talented campers. They will represent them in the show tonight. You can do anything, as long as it's not sex or breaking any laws." Starkweather explained. "You'll be judged by our special guest who decided to not expose us. We will reveal him later on tonight. The best score wins immunity and junk food and sodas for all of them to eat. The losing team has to send someone to their death."

The two teams then left the stage and went to their cabin area.

(Dopey Doves' side)

"Alright! Who's got the best talent in the team?" SpongeBob asked everyone.

"I can make jokes!" Roger Rabbit exclaimed. "I'm going in the talent show as the funniest rabbit in the multiverse!"

"That's great!" SpongeBob clapped. "Who's next?"

"Me!" Pizza Cookie said. "I can dance."

"Can you show us?" Candy asked her.

Pizza Cookie grabbed a speaker and turned it on to some music, where she showed off her dance moves. Her dance moves are not too bad.

"That's cool," SpongeBob smiled. "Looks like you are in!"

"Well…I can write poems…" Robina said quietly.

"I can play the ukulele!" SpongeBob said. "I'm pretty good at it."

"Yeah. You would be a perfect fit for the talent show." Jim said. "Because I don't know if the special guest will be impressed with my puzzle skills."

"Sounds good," Cash said.

(Running Roosters' side)

"I'm in charge of this challenge," Dahlia shouted.

"Who died and made you queen of this team?" Natalya shouted back.

"Nobody, you stupid bitch." Dahlia scoffed. "Anyways, who has the best talent?"

"I can play the violin very well," Mint Choco Cookie answered. "I've been practicing for years after all, ask Cocoa Cookie about it."

"Looks like he's in this shit. Anyone else?" Dahlia asked again.

"I can stand on my head for 20 minutes," Cindy said. "Will taught me about this a few times."

"Not bad, but we need something better." Nikolai shook his head.

"I can also play the guitar," Wyatt said. "Been playing for years."

"And I can pull pranks on everyone," Tuff said. "The same goes for Cosmi…"

"Yeah. Been pulling pranks all my life!" Cosmi exclaimed. "It all started when I was one year old, it seemed like yesterday, I-"

"Nobody cares about your gay fucking backstory! You and Tuff are in!" Dahlia shouted.

"And with Wyatt, that makes all of us good to go," Cindy nodded.

"Yep." Natalya agreed.

Everyone walked away, with Jude being the only one here.

"I was going to say that I can skateboard very well…" Jude sighed sadly.

The next scene cuts to Dahlia walking in the forest along with Tuff and Nikolai.

"Why are we in the forest?" Nikolai asked her.

"Because I want to talk to Komaru." Dahlia replied. "She's still a little sad about what happened to Toko. But instead of making her believe in herself, I want you to crush them and have her sabotage her team."

"Wait, really? That's good!" Nikolai laughed.

"Won't that get her eliminated though?" Tuff gasped in shock.

"Meh, one less person to deal with when it happens. Besides, she'll reunite with Toko in the afterlife." Dahlia smirked.

"Y-you are cruel, Dahlia…" Tuff shook his head in disappointment.

Nikolai walked up to Komaru, who was sitting on the deck and staring at the water while crying. She missed Toko so much and she wants to see her again. It's like…she wants to commit suicide very badly.

"Hey." Nikolai started to say. "I want you to stay strong. Think of the positive things you have done and look at them. We cannot afford to lose the challenge today." Nikolai told her.

"R-really?" Komaru said as she stopped crying for a second.

"Yep. And I know what you can do to help your team out. Follow me." Nikolai smirked.

Nikolai and Komaru are walking back to the stage, where Running Roosters were at. Lucy and Jude are playing blackjack on some crates, Natalya is reading a book, and Wyatt and Mint Choco Cookie are practicing their talents.

"So can you really stand on your hands for twenty minutes?" Komaru asked Cindy.

"Wanna bet that I can't?" Cindy wagered.

"You're on!" Nikolai smiled. "Can't wait to see what happens."

Soon, everyone pulled in a treat or some money.

"This starts…now!" Cindy said as she got on her hands and started to walk a little. Wyatt was playing his guitar when he noticed that Cindy was walking on her hands.

"Awesome!" Natalya clapped.

Unknownst to them, Komaru crept over to the ropes and cut one of them with a knife Nikolai gave, causing the light to come crashing down, hitting Wyatt and landing on Cindy.

"Oh crap!" Cindy called out.

The guitar was now broken.

Wyatt was now wearing a bandage on his head a few moments later while he sighed in disappointment.

"Look at what you did!" Wyatt screamed. "My guitar is broken!"

"I didn't mean to!" Cindy screamed. "It was an accident!"

"Calm down, Wyatt," Nikolai said. "I'm sure that someone did that on purpose. Someone had framed Cindy for this."

"Wait? Really?" Tuff gasped, playing it along.

"Yep," Nikolai said, before walking away.

"Well, what now?" Cosmi asked the group.

"I say that Cindy will participate in the talent show," Dahlia said.

"Come on, let's go…" Mint Choco Cookie said towards Cocoa Cookie. "I need to rest up before the big talent show."

"Sure," Cocoa Cookie chuckled nervously.

Mint Choco Cookie and Cocoa Cookie left the area, walking through the forest and reaching the beach.

"So…talk to me." Mint Choco Cookie said.

"Well, if we lose the next challenge, I thought about something. Komaru looks depressed and sad after what happened to Toko," Cocoa Cookie explained. "So I decided that it's best to vote her off."

"Vote her off?" Mint Choco Cookie asked. "Why?"

"She can reunite with Toko in the afterlife." Cocoa Cookie told him, sipping on her hot chocolate beverage. "Plus, she hasn't really done anything useful for the team lately."

"You are right about that…" Mint Choco Cookie agreed. "Still, I'm not too sure about this."

Cocoa proceeded to hold onto Mint Choco. "Mint Choco, please! I-I don't want you or me to die, I want to make it out of this alive, but we need to make some sacrifices to keep our lives, and unfortunately Komaru is our best shot if we lose."

"I-I" Mint Choco said uncomfortably. "I understand. Sorry Komaru, I really am."

The next scene moves over to Caitlin and Jude at the cabins all by themselves.

"Dudette, if I could show them my skateboarding skills, it would be perfect." Jude sighed.

"Don't worry. I will convince them to have you be a backup if something bad happens." Caitlin smiled.

"Really?" Jude said. "Thank you."

"You are welcome," Caitlin laughed. "So how is your team going?"

"Well, they are going great. Except for Komaru, she seems sad about Toko's death." Jude nodded. "I was thinking about voting her off."

Meanwhile, Komaru was all by herself in the woods. She was walking around the forest when she spotted a shed. Walking inside the place, there were a lot of tools and stuff like ropes.

This gives Komaru a brilliant idea.

(Confessional: Komaru)

"I…don't know what I should do…should I kill myself and reunite with Toko? Or keep on going and mourn my loss when all of this is over….?"

"I…"

"I don't know…"

Those who are performing are getting ready as it is sunset.

"Okay, I can do this…" Cindy said while she eats a bag of potato chips. "I can win this for my team."

"Aw, too bad about the accident. I know who did it: Komaru." Nikolai said.

"She did that?" Cindy gasped.

"Yeah. She did that so that Wyatt wouldn't perform because she doesn't like him." Nikolai explained. "And oh, easy on the chips if I were you."

"Don't worry, I won't overeat…" Cindy sighed.

The next scene cuts to everyone who is not performing on the seats, all except for Komaru.

"Where is Komaru?" Tuff asked his team.

"I don't know. The last time I saw her was when she sabotaged our team." Nikolai answered.

"She did that? Why?" Lucy gasped.

"Because she doesn't like him," Nikolai said.

"She doesn't like me? Oh, she is going down!" Wyatt exclaimed.

"Ladies and gentlemen, welcome to the Total Drama: Despair Island talent show!" Starkweather announced. "Joining us is our special guest: Jeffrey Crawford "Lazlow" Jones!"

"Hey guys! Whatsup!" Lazlow exclaimed. "You might know me from my TV show, Fame or Shame. It's about-"

"Yeah, nobody fucking cares you retared has been," Starkweather said. "Anyways, he'll be scoring the performances on a scale of 1-100. 100 being the highest score while 1 being the lowest score. The team that has the highest score wins. First up for Dopey Doves, SpongeBob!"

SpongeBob comes out, wearing a tuxedo and holding his ukulele.

"Welcome everyone! Here's a tune for all of you to hear!" SpongeBob exclaimed.

SpongeBob begins to play a Hawaiian song using his ukulele. The song was so good and beautiful that a few members of Dopey Doves started to dance along with the song.

"This is beautiful…" Tiff said.

"Yeah, I wish I had a musical talent like that!" Tuff said.

"Wait, are you going to be performing soon?" Cosmi asked him.

"Oh shoot! Thanks for reminding me!" Tuff said in shock as he and Cosmi got on stage. Cosmi was already holding papers as he gave it to him.

"Now this is our moment to win this." Cosmi told him. "Otherwise, we'll be on the chopping block if we lose."

"Got it." Tuff nodded.

Just then, SpongeBob finished playing his song and he clapped in excitement.

"Thank you! Thank you so much!" SpongeBob cheered.

"So what do you think of that?" Starkweather asked Lazlow.

"Meh. It was a mid song." Lazlow nodded. "I'll give it 50 points."

"And with that, Dopey Doves earned their first points," Starkweather said. "Next up, for Running Roosters, it's Mint Choco Cookie "

Mint Choco Cookie came up to the stage holding his violin and began to play a piece of classical music. It was…sweet and boring at the same time. After about a few minutes, everyone ended up falling asleep except for a few people.

When he was finally finished, everyone woke up.

"Oh! Looks like he's finished with his song," Starkweather said. "Lazlow, what do you think?"

"40 points, because I had a dream where I was famous and not a laughing stock." Lazlow smiled.

"Okay, looks like we can move on to the next one. Next up, Pizza Cookie from Dopey Doves!" Starkweather said.

Pizza Cookie came onto the stage, holding a beatbox, and pressed play on the speaker. She is dancing to an hip hop song as she showed up her dance moves

"Woo, you go girl!" Candy exclaimed.

"Yes, I'm doing it!" Pizza Cookie cheered.

Pizza Cookie ends the dance by landing on the judges by accident.

"So…did I do great?" She asked him.

"Well, it was going great until she landed on me." Lazlow sighed. "But she did a good job. 75 points it is."

"Alright, then! Next up for Running Roosters, it's Cindy!"

"Are you sure you can do this?" Wyatt asked her as she looked nervous.

"Ooh." Her stomach suddenly churns uncomfortably. "Yes, I'm…good. I can do this!"

Wyatt looked at Cindy worriedly as Cindy flipped over to stand with her hands. She quickly walked out to the stage and then she lets out an uneasy belch. SpongeBob ends up snickering.

Cindy belched once again and in a quick moment, she began to vomit.

The campers watching looked horrified as her barf suddenly went airborne and turned into a disgusting projectile of vomit, splattering on several members of the audience.

"I'm hit!" SpongeBob shouted.

Mint Choco Cookie and Cocoa Cookie were also struck, with Cocoa Cookie looking particularly grossed out before puking at Mint Choco Cookie.

Candy was also struck and looked at herself.

"Dammit…" Candy cried out.

With the stage now completely covered in puke, the blonde's hands slipped under the wet surface, causing her to lose her balance and fell on top of Steve.

"Hey!" Candy shouted. "Don't you dare puke on him!"

"Well, looks like we got a lot to clean up." Starkweather sighed angrily. "Lazlow, what do you think?

"5 points since she didn't puke on me." Lazlow nodded.

"Well, let's take a quick break." Starkweather nodded. "In the meantime, can someone find Komaru? She hasn't shown up at all and I'm losing my patience."

"Let Cindy find her." Mint Choco Cookie said. "Since she tortured us."

Cindy sighed as she got up from the floor and began walking away.

The next scene cuts to the stage, where it is sparkly clean.

"Without further problems, next up is Roger Rabbit from Dopey Doves," Starkweather said.

Roger Rabbit got on the stage, wearing a cute tuxedo.

"Good evening, ladies and gentlemen!" Roger Rabbit exclaimed. "It's time for the ultimate comedy show!"

Meanwhile, Cindy went over to the cabins and checked to see if Komaru was there, but she wasn't there. Then, she checked the Mess Hall and she wasn't there either.

"Well, she's not here…." Cindy said to herself.

Cindy then went over to the forest to see if she was hiding in the bushes or trees. She wasn't there either, so she went over to a shed and opened it slowly.

Inside…was Komaru. She was hanged and dead.

"AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!"

Her scream was so loud that it attracted the rest of the teams and the hosts. They all ran over to the shed to see what happened.

"So what happened?" Starkweather asked.

"Komaru's dead!" Cindy exclaimed.

Starkweather entered the shed and saw the scene unfold his eyes. Next to Komaru's dead body, there was a note. Starkweather picked the note up and began to read it out loud.

To everyone,

I can't take it anymore. I've lost Toko, I can barely even pretend to smile, and I'm not helpful for anyone. I hope you're all glad you've lost a burden like myself.

Love,

Komaru Naegi

P.S.: If you ever find Makoto Naegi, tell him that I'm not coming home…

"I guess this means the rest of the talent show is canceled and there will be no elimination," Starkweather said.

"So I guess this means I will get paid for this, right?" Lazlow asked him.

"In fact…"

The next scene changes to Lazlow tied up and strapped to the chair. Starkweather was holding a shotgun.

"This isn't fair! I have to die?" Lazlow shouted. "Not fair!"

"Well, at least Fame or Shame will be canceled." Starkweather laughed. "I'll send a message to your fans!"

Starkweather aimed the shotgun towards Lazlow's head and fired. The bullet went straight to his head, killing him instantly.

"At least I get to kill someone at the end…" Starkweather sighed. "Besides, there's no fucking way that asshole won't mouth us off like the idiot he is. Stay tuned for more Total Drama: Despair Island."
