Chapter 1: Auditions
Chapter Text
Heya, pals. It’s me, AluInt. The guy who wrote Total Drama Something.
The first season is nearly complete and I’m like: yeah, fuck it. Spinoff time. Wait, I have season 2 to do!!! Anyway…
This season will take place some months later after TDS. This will be a spin-off season rather than a mainline, and it’s called Gaiden because it means side story, haha, get it? GET IT?!!?!?!??!?!?! So there would be fewer people. (It’s 14 people for this one.)
The only rule is that you can’t suggest OC, the real-life person (live-action is fine), or anyone straight up NSFW.
You can only suggest 5-10 people in your submission as an excuse so I don’t have to read the bible sized suggestions. (Looking at you G-Man.) Only one character per comment will be chosen because I wanna make it a fair game, unless there are fewer or more than 10 comments.
- The Governor (The Walking Dead)
- Nabiu (The Fruitless Quests of Nabiu)
- Roronoa Zoro (One Piece)
- Ruby Hoshino (Oshi no Ko)
The spinoff will begin its production sometime around early Season 2.

Chapter 3: Ep. 1 - "Welcome to... Somewhere"
Summary:
Chris introduces thirteen newbies. That's it.
Notes:
I know I said this season would start production during the Season 2 run, but this is just an introduction chapter.
(See the end of the chapter for more notes.)
Chapter Text
The opening shots reveal an aerial view of an island. A beat-up yacht speeds up toward the island and crashes, sputtering smoke. A familiar figure wearing an iconic blue shirt and cargo pants hopped down and landed perfectly on the dock. He watched as the yacht slowly sank underwater.
“Yo, Chris is back in the open again!”
He readjusted his shirt before talking.
“Last season… things got a little out of hand…”
Flashback scenes include the Roomba careening through Camp Wawanakwa, vacuuming trees, grass, wildlife, and people. Someone did the work by destroying the machine and ending the crisis. Later, Chris is arrested by heavily armored agents for that Roomba crime, which wasn’t his fault in Total Drama Something. (See Chapter 11)
“Anyway, after three months of awkward vacation in the slumber, 72 community service hours, and more…” Chris said. “Chris is finally back, baby, and I’ve gotten a good present! More like ridiculous.”
“A new season is being hosted right here. New weirdos from other dimensions, new drama, and new ratings! Same prizes as always. The million dollars.”
“Unfortunately, instead of sixteen victims—ahem, campers . Thirteen campers are competing in this very short season. Why is the cast size so small? Low budget, duh! And Chef Hatchet is not available at the moment because he was busy handling the other mainline season. Something about Hawaii.” Chris said.
“Anyway, I totally rented this remote island, somewhere around the Pacific Ocean. Ain’t that huge compared to Camp Wawanakwa, but it should do enough.”
It showed clips of trashed cabins, dining hall, dirty bathroom, campfire elimination, and more, before the camera panned back to Chris.
“There will be fewer obstacles for them to face, sounds short and simple, right? Well, that depends on how your strategy works or if you keep your alliance intact. And what happens when you’re eliminated?”
Cut to Chris patting an entire roller coaster ride with a giant loop.
"Yup, this is Merry-Go-Whirl! This bad boy can entertain its guests with its rapid ride, and they will be launched off track somewhere. You gotta understand how fun the roller coaster was, so I made it extra!"
Cut to Chris standing on the dock again.
“So, 13 campers, a million dollars, one winner… Welcome to…”
He took a deep breath.
“Total… Drama… Gaiden!”
The camera zooms out to show the entire island again.
[INTRO]
“Welcome back to the mainstream of Gaiden! As I said before, thirteen campers will be competing for a million dollars, so let’s start with the introduction immediately! I think the first one is arriving soon, unless they were attacked by a mutant sea creature.”
A few minutes later. The first boat arrived, carrying a blonde girl with a side-tied ponytail and bright, starry eyes.
“First up: Ruby Hoshino! She’s used to bright lights and big stages.”
The idol hops off, giving a polite bow to the host.
“Thank you, Chris! I’m here to win, no matter what.” Ruby said.
“Can’t say I’m surprised to see a prominent figure of the new B-Komachi standing here.” Chris laughed. “So? Are you an idol with a big secret?”
“Uh, why? I already said I’m here to win.” Ruby asked.
“Aha, forget I said anything, Ruby. Please stand over there and wait for the other 12 campers to arrive.” Chris instructed the idol.
“Sure thing, Chris!” Ruby replied.
The idol does his deed. The second boat arrived, revealing a green gecko wearing a snazzy Hawaiian outfit and sunglasses.
“Yup, here comes our second contestant—straight out from the 90s and ready to crack his way through the competition… Gex the Gecko!” Chris said.
“Lights, camera, lizard! Ready to rock this island, baby!” Gex said.
“Welcome to the… uh… somewhere island, Gex!” Chris welcomed him. “You really retired from being a couch potato lizard to a full contestant, ha?”
“Definitely,” Gex replied.
“So, can a gecko like you win the extreme competition when you only watch a movie?” Chris asked.
“Hmph. No sweat, man! I got pop culture references and quips behind my back.” Gex proclaimed as he went to Ruby.
“Not sure if that’s gonna help, but it’s Gex we’re talking about.” Chris shrugged.
The third boat arrived, carrying a pink-haired woman with a noticeable red horn on her head, and her teeth are sharp as hell.
“For our third contestant, from the public safety, who hunts the devil… her name is—” Chris was interrupted by Power’s loud entrance.
“GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOD MOOOOOOOORNING, USA!” Power shouted.
“Uh, this is Canada.” Ruby corrected her.
“Yeowch, buddy! You gotta owe me a new ear.” Gex sneered.
“This is Power—” He was interrupted again.
“I. THE GREAT, ALMIGHTY, MAGNIFICENT, DIVINE, FEARSOME, KEEN, MAJESTIC, ALL POWERFUL, INCREDIBLE, KING POWER, HAS RETURNED!” Power shouted again.
“Returned? This is your first visit.” Chris deadpanned.
“These people are my competition? Really?!” Power gasped.
“Yup, hi! I’m Ruby,” Ruby said.
“Damn, lame. I was expecting more dangerous people.” Power complained.
“Well, here she is, folks! The Blood Fiend herself—Power!” Chris introduced the girl.
“Anyway, this is gonna be EASYYY, I can win this by simply walking!” Power bragged.
“Man, I’m in one hell of a show.” Gex snorted.
Cricket noises.
“C’mon! No laughing stock or anything?” Gex huffed in annoyance.
And they just ignored the lizard. The fourth boat arrived and was seen carrying a man wearing black clothes and a blindfold, he had white striking hair.
“And here comes our fourth camper. He’s got bark and bite. Meet Satoru Gojo, the coolest sensei from the Jujutsu High!” Chris said.
Gojo stepped on the docks, looking around before facing Chris with a grateful smile.
“Heya, Chris! It’s good to see you!” Gojo said.
“Here he is, folks! The overpowered Jujutsu sorcerer has arrived. Let’s hope he didn’t leave a massive crater from a fight.” Chris grinned.
“This is the place where we do the challenges and things? Cute.” Gojo smirked.
“Yup, you ready for the Total Drama challenges?” Chris questioned him.
“Sure, I mean, I came all the way here just for some fun! Or wreck some havoc if I’m bored.” Gojo said.
“How do you see with your blindfold?” Ruby asked.
“I’m not blind, really. Let’s just say… my eyes don’t make a good history,” Gojo laughed.
“You’re so full of mystery, huh?” Gex snickered.
“Heeeey, trust me, it’s better to keep these covered.” Gojo shrugged.
The fifth boat made a stop, a young man wearing a red shirt and black pants, who also wore gloves with a logo.
“Niki-niki! Jan is here! I’m Jan Kandou, the Tiger Kid!” Jan introduced himself.
“Yup, you heard this guy. He is Jan Kandou from SRTRC and a gekiranger!” Chris followed behind.
“What’s a ‘gekiranger’?” Ruby asked, curious.
Jan sniffed the air before facing the cast.
“Whoa, this place smells like a jungle! Perfect for getting wild,” Jan grinned.
“What’s with the jungle nonsense?” Power quipped.
“Hmph, jungle is everything! I grew up in the wild,” Jan said.
“Oh.” That was all Ruby could mutter.
“Hey, I like this guy’s style,” Gojo said.
“Don’t worry, dude. There’s plenty of wild stuff in the jungle, just gotta make sure you're careful enough.” Chris reminded him.
“Jan won’t lose! I’ll be the wildest of ‘em all!” Jan pumped his fist.
“Well, I didn’t expect a jungle man wearing formal clothes,” Gex said. “Kind of like, if he were George of the Jungle.”
The sixth boat arrived, revealing a middle-aged man wearing a grey coat and an eyepatch.
“The man who knows how to survive and how to lead… He’s the leader of the safety haven, Woodbury! Welcome, Governor.” Chris said.
“It was a pleasure to meet you, McLean.” The Governor shook his hands.
“Whoa, what happened to your eye?” Ruby asked.
“Just… stuff that went out of control in Woodbury, there’s nothing to worry about. It’s ancient history,” he replied with a smile.
“Hmmm? Do you have a real name? That nickname sounds awesome!” Jan complimented him.
“My name is Philip Blake. I founded and led the Woodbury people, and they referred to me as The Governor.” The Governor chuckled.
“So… are you from the zombie apocalypse?” Gojo asked.
“What the hell is a ‘zombie’?” He replied.
“Well, there might not be a zombie in his hometown, but the dead sure walk… You could say they’re The Walking Dead.” Gex joked.
More cricket noises.
“Can I eat you instead?” Power sneered.
“FOR WHAT?!” Gex yelled.
“Lunch break is over, bloody lady. We have more people to introduce.” Chris interrupted them.
The seventh boat arrived, carrying a red-haired woman wearing a white skin-tight one-piece that loosens up and a broken halo. Instead of hopping off, she lets a giant iron sphere that was chained to her leg carry her to the dock by floating.
“Pretty stylish entrance, I must admit.” Chris chuckled. “Please, say our welcome to Jack-O Valentine!”
“Hey, hey, everyone! I’m here to play the game!” Jack waved at them, still sitting on her iron pumpkin.
“Is that your stupid pet? What’s with that stuff and… you got a puppet vibe.” Power growled.
Jack got off her ride. Her iron pumpkin shrank to a smaller size, and her minions were summoned.
“Hmm, these are your little friends?” The Governor asked.
“Heeey, I told you not to come out! Yeah, they’re my little friends.” Jack said.
Her minions vanished into thin air.
“I see.” The Governor nodded.
“Well, that was a neat trick,” Gojo grinned.
“WHOOOA, that sounds waki-waki!” Jan complimented her.
“I feel like I need a whole dictionary to understand the jungle boy’s code,” Gex thought.
“This season’s already packed with chaos, but with Jack-O? Waaaay more fun than it will ever be!” Chris grinned.
The eighth boat arrived, carrying a blueberry mage, who was writing something in her notebook.
“Here comes the mage from… uh… Wizzro’s house, which is located in nowhere. But she’s definitely on a huge quest in her adventure! Introducing Nabiu!” Chris said.
“Aaaaw, ain’t that a cute mage?” Jack giggled.
“Yeah, and she’s a mage. That’s extra cool!” Ruby said.
“Hello, Nabiu!” Chris said.
“Hi, Chris! Have you seen this chair?” Nabiu showed everyone a picture of an ordinary red armchair.
Everyone took a peek.
“Nah,” Everyone replied.
“I was supposed to find my professor’s chair,” Nabiu said.
“Wait. You just joined this season to find your mentor’s chair?” Chris asked.
Nabiu nodded and kept her bright, derpy smile.
“That’s all?” Gex added.
More nodding from the mage.
“Yeaaah, I haven’t seen anything like that, sorry,”
“It’s alright! I’ll be leaving—” Nabiu turned around.
“Wait up, berry! Don’t you want to miss the chance to win a million dollars?” Chris stopped her. “You literally signed up to participate in this game!”
She took a few seconds before her eyes widened.
“Oh, right, I remember now!” Nabiu joined back to the group. The Governor took a peek at the picture.
“What’s so special about this chair?” The Governor asked.
“Ah! It’s my mentor’s chair that can—” Nabiu was interrupted.
“What’s so bloody interesting about a stupid chair?! Can’t they just buy a new one?” Power said.
“Oi, calm down!” Jan said.
“Welp, I guess it’s time for another fruitless quest of Nabiu,” Gex said.
“How is it ‘fruitless’ when Nabiu is a blueberry?” Ruby deadpanned.
“Anyway, here comes our ninth player,” Chris said, ignoring the whole commotion.
The ninth boat was carrying… a white muffin with stick limbs. He hopped down with a smile.
“This season’s cast is more colorful than your world! Say hello to Mr. Muffin!” Chris introduced him.
A beat of silence as everyone stares at the talking pastry, even Nabiu starts scrolling through her notes hoping she will find an info about the muffin.
“Huh? Is this for real?” Ruby said.
“That’s a muffin, alright,” Gojo said.
“A muffin. A muffin .” Power repeated.
“Yup, I’m Muffin! Who wants to eat me?” Muffin said as if that was the most normal thing ever.
“You’re a living thing,” The Governor sighed.
“But I wanna die!” Muffin said in a cheery tone.
“HAAW? WHY?” Jan was flabbergasted.
“Have you thought of suicide by using another method?” The Governor asked.
“HEY! Not that topic!” Ruby whispered.
“No! I wanna be eaten instead!” Muffin said.
“Wow. Haha, okay. Never thought people would sign up for Total Drama just to tell everyone to eat them, or die in one of Chris’ challenges,” Gojo rubbed his neck.
“No! I wanna be eaten! People can’t resist a good muffin!” Muffin chimed in.
“Alright, simmer down with your venting, here comes our next camper!” Chris said.
The tenth boat arrived, carrying a female high schooler with a green school uniform.
“Meet the most attractive, at least from what I’ve heard, class president from Hyosan High School! Choi Nam-Ra!” Chris grinned at the next newcomer.
She stepped down the boat and greeted.
“Hello, everyone. I’m Choi Nam-Ra. Thank you for inviting me, Chris.” Nam-Ra greeted.
“Hmph, she looks so normal! What’s her deal?” Power huffed.
“Shhh, maybe it’s one of those dangerous quiet kids tropes, best to be careful around her!” Gex whispered.
Nam-ra gives them a polite smile.
“Hello, I hope we will get along,” Nam-Ra said.
“Yup, we will,” Gojo grinned.
“We’ll see…” The Governor said.
The eleventh boat arrived, another idol pops out, and she has pink hair, including the twin drills.
“And now making her debut—internet idol, trickster queen, and a bread lover! Kasane Teto!” Chris announced.
A few of them dropped their jaws.
“TETO?!” Ruby shouted.
“WHOA!” Silence. “Who’s Teto?” Jan asked.
“Teto Kasane is here! Ready to show my skills to win!” Teto grinned.
“Whoa, it’s the girl from Vocaloid!” Gex said.
“NOT WHAT I’M FROM!” Teto corrected him. “UTAU!”
“Yeah, we’ll see… We’ll see!” Power totally didn’t copy The Governor’s words from earlier. “It might be an act.”
“NOPE! Never an act! I’ll sing my way to the top of the game!” Teto assured.
“How’s singing gonna help you through the physical challenges?” Jack asked.
Silence.
“Talent show,” Teto responded.
“Oooh, I think we’d make a great pair if we worked together!” Ruby said.
The twelfth boat arrived. It was a square-faced man, curly dark hair, red glasses, and a short goatee.
“Meet our Scruffy Head, a man with millions of information and zero chill—Franky Franklin!” Chris said.
“I told you not to call me that!” Franky growled. “Hey, hey, hey, I’m Franky! I guess you’d call me an informant? Don’t worry! I’m just here for an adventure.”
“An informant… interesting…” The Governor said.
“Looks weak.” Power huffed.
“HEY!” He yelled back. “I’m tougher than you think… sort of…”
“Wanna see?” Power pumped her fist.
“Can we NOT cause a bloodbath here? Please?” It was Nam-ra who said that.
“Hey, it wasn’t me that started it!” Franky defended himself.
“I wanna die!” Muffin exclaimed, but was ignored.
“Man’s got his goofy charm and information. We’re down to our final camper!” Chris said.
The final boat arrived carrying a redheaded female wearing formal clothes.
“Hey, everyone, I’m Eve Wilkins,” Eve introduced.
“Oh, just a regular high schooler. Hello!” Ruby waved.
“Thanks for having me, Chris. Am I the last camper to arrive, judging by the crowd?” Eve asked.
“Yup. You’re the 13th and the last camper to show up. And I thought you’d show up in that suit .” Chris whispered.
“Nope. No idea what you were talking about.” Eve shrugged.
“I bet every cell of the atom that she’s hiding something far more sinister!” Gex accused.
“You got a secret talent?” Jan asked.
“Nope… just science and I like building stuff,” Eve responded with a smile.
“Ah, I’ll be damned. I thought the last camper would be some kind of eldritch monster or anything, but a normal person.” Gojo chuckled.
“MONSTER? WHERE?” Nabiu shouted.
“No, there isn’t any monster,” Jack calmed her down.
“OH, phew!” Nabiu sighed.
“And that’s all 13 campers present! I’m sure you all know how Total Drama works, right?” Chris asked his campers.
Every camper nodded in confirmation, even Power and Muffin.
“Okay, if anyone has more questions, I’ll start rolling out two teams!” Chris exclaimed.
“WAIT! That’s very uneven! One of them will have seven people, and the other will have six!” Teto called out.
“Well, yeah? Revenge on the Island had 13 campers and nobody complained, this shouldn’t be a problem—” Chris was interrupted.
“OOOOOOI!” A mysterious voice was heard nearby.
“What was that?” Gojo asked.
“Hell if I know, dude! That must be my intern going wild,” Chris assumed.
“Wild? Waki-waki! Jan’s gonna see them!” Jan said.
“Luffy! Where the hell are you?!” Another mysterious voice was heard.
Chris and the rest turned around to see a green-haired swordsman carrying three swords, probably gotten lost.
“Is this one of your interns?” Ruby asked.
“Nope. No way, Sherlock. I never met him in my life.” Chris added.
The swordsman approached the group.
“Strange group of people.” The swordsman said.
“Says the man dressing up as an edgy samurai,” Franky added.
“I’m a pirate. Straw Hat Pirates. Do you see my crew? My name is Roronoa Zoro.” Zoro introduced.
“Um, that’s clearly not a pirate outfit. You’re a swordsman.” Eve said.
“I don’t recall seeing any pirate ships landing here,” Jack-O said.
“What? Are you serious? Look, I’m sure the ship landed here before we split up to look for… stuff,” Zoro rubbed his head.
“There’s no ship here,” The Governor sighed. “I can’t tell if you’re just wasting our precious time.”
Beat.
“Oh my gecko, his sense of direction is terrible,” Gex said.
“Alright, he must be lost then! Poor guy, being abandoned by his crew…” Gojo frowned.
“I’m not being abandoned by my crew, I just went in the left direction,” Zoro corrected the sorcerer.
“Oh, you got lost and somehow ended up here? That’s tragic… love it.”
“Damn, I gotta move on—” Zoro went to make a move.
“Anyway, want to join the thrill of the Total Drama game show where you get people screaming, betrayal, and possibly walk the plank?” Chris offered.
The swordsman froze, slowly turning around to face Chris.
“Do I have to see Sanji?” Zoro asked.
“Nope. Never heard of that guy. Ever. Promise.” Chris added. “Excited to join?”
The swordsman thought for a little before shrugging.
“Sure, sign me up,” Zoro said.
Zoro joined the group. Making it fourteen.
“Well, this wasn’t planned at all. Anyway… forget thirteen. Who needs symmetry? That’s right, producers—we’re breaking the format again.” Chris added. “We have 14 this time. You can be happy now, Teto!”
“Yay!” Teto celebrated.
Zoro studied the group for a second.
“I don’t know about any of you kiddos, including that little blue ball, an escaped convict, and a… feral human. I’m Zoro.” Zoro introduced himself. “I like the vibe, and no pervy cook? Even better.”
“Who were you referring to as the escaped convict?” Ruby asked.
“That lady over there.” Zoro pointed at Jack-O, who had Dropos chained to her leg. She just shrugged.
“That guy is either a lost tourist or the chillest war criminal I’ve ever seen,” Franky whispered to Gex.
“Okay, gather up, people! I’m sure you all know that—” Chris stopped.
Zoro was silent.
“Oh, right, you just arrived,” Chris sighed. “Guess I’ll have to explain the basics of Total Drama to you, I’m being nice today, so let’s start!”
Two hours of explaining later.
“Okay, I got it,” Zoro replied.
“Good!” Chris said. “Let’s start with teams.”
The interns brought two banners, one yellow and the other brown.
“When I call your name, stand over that yellow mat,” Chris pointed.
The group nodded.
“Governor, Eve, Teto, Muffin, Jack-O, Ruby, and Franky!” Chris said. “You will be the Withering Wolves!”
The seven campers went to stand on the yellow mat. The Governor caught the banner and opened it, revealing a yellow logo of a wolf. The rest of them who weren’t picked went to the brown mat.
“And I’m sure you already know this. Gojo, Nam-Ra, Power, Nabiu, Jan, Gex, and Zoro!” Chris said. “Now the second and final team is in! You will be the Berserker Bear!”
Gojo caught and opened their team banner, revealing a brown logo of a bear.
“Aughh, uga-uga! Bear!” Jan complained.
“What’s wrong with a bear?” Gex asked.
“Right! He’s a bado-bado!” Jan exclaimed. “But the Wild-Beast Fist has brought him into justice!”
“Okay, if you have no complaint about your teams. I suggest you start bunking in your new cabin!” Chris commanded them.
All of them nodded and entered through their respective cabins.
(CONFESSIONAL) CHRIS:
“Yup. The confessional booth is back in action! Spill your darkest secret here or just throw an embarrassing secret, you know it!”
(CONFESSIONAL) GOJO:
“Heh. I can tell some of these guys reminded me of my students. Man, that was the good old days.”
(CONFESSIONAL) ZORO:
“Wasn’t my plan to end up on this island and join a game, but I couldn’t pass up the offer. Why the hell not? Plus, it keeps me away from that pervy cook.”
(CONFESSIONAL) JAN:
“Riki-riki! Jan’s ready to strive for the next adventure!”
(CONFESSIONAL) EVE:
“It seems like Chris was already aware of my secret talent. I won’t use them unless I need to. I just don’t want them to see me as an immediate threat.”
(CONFESSIONAL) MUFFIN:
“Somebody kill me!”
(CONFESSIONAL) NABIU:
“Yipee! I can’t wait to discover something awesome in my next quest of surviving Total Drama!”
(CONFESSIONAL) POWER:
“I’LL SHOW THESE HUMANS THAT POWER SHALL NOT BE MESSED AROUND! I’M POWEEEEEER!”
(CONFESSIONAL) GOVERNOR:
“These people are unique, but dangerous. I must keep an eye on them.”
(CONFESSIONAL) JACK-O:
Her minions spawned and were cheering for her inside the booth. “Awww, thanks, guys! I’ll try my best to win this season!”
(CONFESSIONAL) RUBY:
“Originally, it was my brother who wanted to join the game until he stepped down, and I replaced him! I’m still not sure why he stepped down in the last second. Oh well, I’m gonna win for you, Aqua!”
(CONFESSIONAL) TETO:
“They might see me as a robotic idol, but let’s see how they’d react when I can do more than singing!”
(CONFESSIONAL) FRANKY:
“Do you think I can just hide and not be involved in drama? Drama usually means that you’re getting out easily, right? Riiiiight?”
(CONFESSIONAL) NAM-RA:
“These people are very… special. I hope I can do well in this season.”
(CONFESSIONAL) Gex:
“Heh, there are a total of interesting drama fellows here! And I’ll make sure to rise to the top before them.”
“Yup, that’s all 14 campers wrapped up for the introduction! The real episode begins soon. Hoo boy! They’re not going to believe what they’re facing first. See you next time on Total… Drama… GAIDEN!”
The camera zoomed out to show the island before it cut.
REMAINING CAMPERS
Wilthering Wolves: The Governor — Eve Wilkins — Kasane Teto — Mr. Muffin — Jack-O Valentine — Ruby Hoshino — Franky Franklin
Berserker Bear: Satoru Gojo — Choi Nam-Ra — Power — Nabiu — Jan Kandou — Gex the Gecko — Roronoa Zoro
Notes:
There. That's all for today's chapter. I just thought of Zoro joining TDI because he got lost would be funny, so I did it.
Anyway, do you want to bet on who's winning the million dollars?
Chapter 4: Ep. 2 - "Hide and Scream"
Summary:
Campers play hide and seek with laser rifles to shock people.
Notes:
Yeah, the future episode is gonna be way shorter than this now, lmao. I was planning to make each Gaiden episode short anyway.
(See the end of the chapter for more notes.)
Chapter Text
“Last time on Total Drama Gaiden! Fourteen new victims—I mean, campers were briefly introduced to the latest remote island. And then, there’s Zoro. Who was apparently lost and bumped the list up to fourteen instead. Who cares! More people, more merry! The campers are facing their first challenge soon, and who will be out today? Find out on this episode of Total. Drama! GAIDEN!”
[INTRO]
The Wolves entered their cabin for the first time and still got a similar vibe to the cabins in Camp Wawanakwa.
“It’s still rancid and ugly,” the Governor sighed. “Like the one in Wawanakwa.”
“Eh, I’ll get used to it,” Franky said. “Surely you don’t live in a terrible state, right?”
“Hmm, I guess so,” The Governor shrugged.
“Wait, is it just the two of us on the men’s side?” Franky said.
“I recall there was another one with us, but who the hell is it?” The Governor replied.
“So, who wants to eat me?” Muffin happily exclaimed.
They looked down to notice Mr. Muffin, waving his arms happily, waiting to be eaten.
“We’re not eating you,” The Governor deadpanned.
“Yeah, you’re a living thing,” Franky sighed.
“Not to mention the worst fact that he’s with us,” The Governor grumbled, followed by an informant with a nod.
“But I wanna die!” Muffin yelled.
Those guys decide to ignore him.
(CONFESSIONAL) MUFFIN:
“Why does no one want to eat me?”
(CONFESSIONAL) GOVERNOR:
“Winning the challenge with this guy as your teammate would be complicated.”
Meanwhile, on the female side of the Wolves’ cabin.
“So, you’re an idol too?” Ruby gasped.
“Yes, I’m actually a program, though,” Teto muttered.
“How are you standing here? Aren’t you a program?” Ruby asked.
“But there’s a walking lizard, a blueberry mage, and a muffin. I don’t think this one’s odd enough,” Jack-O said.
“Sorry, forget about that stupid question, erm…” Ruby wasn’t sure what to discuss next.
“Are you really an idol? If so, which group?” Teto asked.
“Have you heard of B-Komachi?” Ruby asked them.
“I don’t think I do,” Eve claimed.
“Same,” Jack-O followed by.
“Well, you guys are from a different dimension, so, understandably, you won’t know such things!” Ruby said.
She got closer to Teto.
“Do you think we could collaborate someday? Hehe…” Ruby whispered.
“I dunno… I only collaborated with Miku,” Teto shrugged. “But I’ll tell you when I've made up my mind.”
“Well, those girls got along already. Are you alright?” Jack-O asked Eve.
“I’m fine. Nice to meet you, Jack,” Eve introduced herself. “I’m just some average high schooler.”
“Huh? A normal person? No power or anything?” Jack muttered.
“Nah, no way, I don’t have any of those,” Eve lied.
(CONFESSIONAL) EVE:
“As I mentioned before, I can’t just show off my superpower right now because that’s just a free ticket to becoming a number one threat. Yeah, I’m saying this because Chris was already aware.”
Alright, we’re finally moving toward the other team. Mainly on the female side of the Bears’ cabin.
“Eugh, this room smells gross,” Power cringed. “I bet the food in this dump sucked as hell!”
“You’re not… wrong about that. After watching many Total Drama seasons, most of them were just gray cement,” Nam-Ra pointed out.
“Mhm,” Nabiu nodded as she took a note.
Power smelled something, then looked toward Nabiu.
“You’re a blueberry, right?” Power asked.
The mage nodded with a smile.
“Can I eat you?” Power asked the blueberry mage.
“No,” Nabiu answered quickly.
“But I heard the food sucked here! I need some good, fresh meal,” Power said.
Nabiu summoned her wand.
“Step back!” Nabiu threatened the devil.
“No! I wouldn’t let them run away!” Power summoned her hammer, made out of blood.
“Guys, please, don’t cause an unnecessary conflict,” Nam-Ra sighed. “We’re teammates.”
Nabiu ran behind the student as a cover.
“Help me,” She whispered.
“I-I— you gotta stop there. I know you joined this game for a reward, right…?” Nam-ra said. “If you… Keep up with this act. No doubt someone will send you out of the game immediately…”
“Blegh, fineeeee,” Power sighed and lay on her bed. “Humans are boring!”
“Didn’t think that would work,” Nam-ra said.
(CONFESSIONAL) NAM-RA:
“My teammates were interesting enough… there’s a half-human, half-devil girl who creates her weapon out of blood… that doesn’t go along with anyone, and there’s a blueberry mage, who seems friendly.”
Meanwhile, on the male side. Let’s just say it’s far more chaotic than the former side.
“Dude, this place feels like an old sock and fear! I’m at home!” Gex shouted.
Meanwhile, there’s just Gojo hanging on the bunk bed upside down.
“I dunno, man. I like more chaos,” Gojo added. “They keep the vibe interesting.”
“Yeah, CHAOS builds character!” Jan shouted. “Every push-up makes Jan stronger!”
And then there’s Jan, wearing nothing but pants made of leather.
“Calm down, jungle boy! We just got here!” Gex said.
“So he’s a martial artist and a caveman at the same time? Interesting,” Gojo thought.
“Man, I heard you were raised in the jungle, correct?” Gojo asked.
“That’s right! Jan used to grow up in the jungle with black & white bears!” Jan answered.
“I thought pandas only lived in China?” Gex pointed out.
“Gah, put your clothes back!” Zoro cringed. “Also, you three are loud as hell.”
“Oh, we have our grumpy swordsman,” Gex added. “Lighten it up, Zoro. This is the time for our first bonding event!”
“Bonding? I don’t even know who you guys are… or how I got here.” Zoro stated.
“You got lost here and agreed with Chris’s offer to join the game. You’re now standing here with us!” Gojo claimed.
“Oh… yeah, I remember that… I guess that’s a nice break from all the chaos I’ve been through,” Zoro replied.
“Well, he’s now the new piece of our bonding members,” Gex grinned.
Silence.
“Jan thinks your joke sucks,” he answered truthfully.
(CONFESSIONAL) ZORO:
“I suppose I’ll have to get used to my new crewmates.”
=
A few hours later. Every camper gathered in the cafeteria, and to the surprise of nobody, they were served with a freezing grey slop, it’s prepared by Chris.
“Chris, what the hell have you been feeding us with?” The Governor asked.
“You can heat that in the microwave,” Chris told him. “I think it’s still working.”
Gex tried to heat his ‘lunch’ in a microwave, and the food turned into a homemade grenade, exploding the microwave and leaving only a destroyed device with a trail of smoke. Nam-Ra was forced to cover her ears from the explosion.
“Okaaaaay, I hope you guys found a way to fix it! Anyway, have fun with your lunch! The challenge is coming in shortly! Better pack up with your lunch right now!” Chris ordered as he left the cafeteria.
“Unbelievable,” Zoro sighed.
“Do you guys know what that means?” Muffin happily announced.
“NO!”
“Somebody kill me!” Muffin begged.
“I guess we’ll find our food on our own,” Nam-Ra stated.
“YEAH! LET’S HUNT SOME BEAR MEAT!” Power yelled.
“Bear?! Are you crazy?!” Franky gasped.
The Blood Fiend had already left the cafeteria.
“She’s nuts. Leave her be,” Zoro said as he left the cafeteria.
“Where are you going?” Jack-O asked.
“I’m going to train,” Zoro claimed.
Gojo tapped his food, and it started to wiggle a little.
“Damn, it’s really that disgusting, just like those curses,” Gojo said. “I kinda lost my appetite. That sucks.”
“Same,” Ruby followed.
Suddenly, Nabiu has an idea!
“Lightning!”
Nabiu summoned a lightning strike with her wand against her lunch, tearing the ceiling open, and the slop is now a roasted turkey.
“Whoa! That was amazing, could you share it with us?” Teto asked.
Nabiu had already left with her food.
“Damn,” Teto pouted.
Meanwhile, Eve was looking around, hoping nobody paid attention to her. She used her power to transform the item into a healthy lunch.
“Time to eat.”
Suddenly, Jan.
“WAAAAH! It smells so good!” Jan sniffed the meal, acting like a curious child. Spooking Eve for a good second at his sudden appearance.
“WAH! Where did you come from?” Eve asked. “Also… It’s not yours.”
“But it smells tasty! Where did you get those from?” Jan questioned her.
“It’s… uh… I found it in this basket,” She showed him the fruit basket she had created earlier. “You can have it.”
“Guys! Eve is giving us free food!” Jan announced as everyone gathered.
“You know… I just found it weird there isn’t any chef present in the kitchen,” The Governor pointed out.
“Now that you mentioned it, I don’t see anyone inside,” Gojo added.
“They might be busy?” Nam-ra assumed.
“Yeah, that’s possible. He probably hated this job and served us this slop, then quit,” Franky claimed.
“Yup. Welcome to Total Drama, buddy,” Gojo chuckled.
“Fuck that! We’re raiding their kitchen, who’s with me!” Gex commanded.
Jack-O, Ruby, Gojo, Teto, and Franky raised their hands. Soon enough, they all entered the kitchen.
“The fruits right here…” Nam-ra called them out.
“Eh, just leave those kids by,” The Governor sighed.
(CONFESSIONAL) THE GOVERNOR:
“Finding a good ally would be a problem for me. From now on, I’ll try to get along with everyone first.”
“Hello, campers! I hope you’re all satisfied with your lunch because it’s time for your challenge!” Chris announced. “Head to the main area in a minute!”
“Aw, man. I couldn’t get a single bite,” Teto huffed.
“Yeah, like, zoinks, dude. Everything in the fridge is just moldy food,” Gex said. “I can’t build a sandwich tower with those ingredients.”
“The fruits were right here to feed all of us, now it’s your responsibility for ignoring the obvious,” The Governor told them.
All of them could only groan when the basket was empty.
=
Later, everyone gathered in the main area. Save for Nam-Ra dragging Zoro into the area without getting lost. Chris is standing between the tables, with one of them containing laser rifles and the other containing a body vest.
“You don’t have to pull me like that, kid,” Zoro grumbled.
“You know… It’s kinda weird to see you standing in the middle of nowhere without Chef Hatchet,” Jack-O pointed out.
“Yeah, the chef has been busy with other things, so I’m going solo for this season,” Chris sighed.
“What do we do with those things?” Eve asked.
“Good question! Today, we’ll be playing hide and seek! Classic, I know. Instead of tagging them, you will use this laser rifle to tag your target!”
“Isn’t this just a laser tag game?” Gojo told him.
“Moving on,” Chris obviously ignored Gojo’s call. “One team will be playing as hiders, and the other will play as seekers.”
“How do you determine which team plays which role?” Teto asked.
“COME ON, I WANNA SHOOT PEOPLE!” Power yelled.
“Just to clarify. Those things don’t kill , right?” Ruby added nervously.
“I dunno, dude. Lemme try it out,” Chris said.
He took one of the laser rifles and shot Franky. The poor informant was electrocuted by the zap before it stopped and leaving him in ashes. He collapsed to the ground whilst foaming bubbles from his mouth.
(CONFESSIONAL) FRANKY:
“WHY ME?!”
“I could’ve sworn it was a harmless laser gun, but who cares! This will do and gain more shock for more ratings!” Chris announced.
“Chris. Our role,” The Governor reminded him.
“Oh, right! Uh…” Chris said. “I know the solution, campers! Eenie-miney-mo-which-one-of-the-team-shall-be-the-executioners?”
He pointed at the Berserker Bears.
“YES! I GET TO SHOOT PEOPLE!” Power raised her voice.
“Okay, you Bears people will be the seekers! And the Wolves will have to hide for an hour to win immunity. If the hunters catch everyone before the timer runs out, they’re safe instead,” Chris said.
The Bears cheered because they won’t potentially suffer like Franky, and the Wolves were groaning in agony.
“This is not cool!” Ruby pouted.
“YAY, somebody kill me!” Muffin yelled.
Everyone ignored him as usual. Time skip to everyone wearing their equipment, and they had to dress up the unconscious Franky, too.
“Why is the vest so god damn heavy?!” Jack-O grunted.
“Well, finding seven people on a huge island would take a lot of time, right?” Ruby said.
“Make it six. The muffin would just come up to them and beg to be eaten,” Teto grunted. “Seriously, why is he even here?! That’s one slot wasted for the other people who actually wanted to play!”
“I think it’s better for them not to interact with this game, with how extreme the challenges are,” Eve shrugged.
“Okay, Wolves! It’s kinda ironic that the wolves are being hunted since they were the one who usually hunts for their prey,” Chris joked. “You got a 5-minute head start to hide before I release the hunters! The winning team gets immunity and a reward ! The challenge begins… RIGHT NOW!”
Everyone immediately fled the scene, and Franky recently woke up from his unconsciousness.
“Ay, what did I miss…?” Franky begrudgingly asked.
“Your pals are hiding right now, and you've got four minutes and forty seconds to hide,” Chris told him.
“OH, NO! I GOTTA HIDE!” Franky panicked.
Franky immediately left.
“We’re going to wait, right?” Jan asked.
“He just said that,” Nam-ra reminded.
“Wah! Jan needs some action already!” Jan groaned.
“SAME! I need to KILL!” Power shouted.
“Whoa, whoa, simmer down, children. You can’t go out there to kill a single living thing,” Gojo said. “Or else the show will face dirty consequences.”
“Thank you, blind man!” Chris added. “Although I do enjoy torturing ‘em for ratings, killing them would’ve blown everything, especially that I won’t get more money!”
“Yeah, yeah, save with the ratings. I bet it will still end up with a one-star review,” Gex snickered.
“Alright, but your jokes still sucked compared to my wonderful show, so technically, I win,” Chris huffed. “The timer has run out for the hiders. Now you can scramble and have fun hunting!”
The host left.
“Two of them were heading that way. I’ll cover that part,” Gex said.
“Let Jan follow you, too!” Jan said.
“Erm… how about you go with that blueberry kid?” He pointed at Nabiu.
“Okay!”
“It’s simple, right? We just use this weird tech to tag our prey,” Zoro said.
“Yup,” Gojo smirked. “Okay, I think I remembered the three of them were heading west earlier. I can go there and fetch those guys.”
“A person is heading toward the north. I can take care of that one,” Nam-ra claimed.
“LET POWER DEMOLISH EVERYONE!” Power screamed as she ran off already.
“Uh… anyway, Zoro? Which group do you want to follow?”
Zoro was nowhere to be found.
“Dude, he was with us earlier!” Gex said. “Where did he run off to?”
“I think he already started to search for the hiders,” Nam-Ra assumed.
“Should we just split up, then?” Gojo said.
“Riki-riki! Let’s get wild together!” Jan shouted.
“Yay!” Said Nabiu with a hint of excitement.
(CONFESSIONAL) GEX:
“I really hope I don’t see that guy half-naked in my hunt.”
=
Gojo and Gex were investigating the woods together.
“Man, a huge island like this would be a problem for the seekers, and the fact that we have only one hour to catch everyone!” Gex groaned.
“Hey, hey, we’re winning this, just trust me, buddy,” Gojo smirked.
“The next thing you’re telling me is that one of the hiders will be found immediately!” Gex grunted.
“I was actually going to say that,” Gojo said.
“Who wants to eat me?!”
Gojo and Gex looked down to see Muffin. Gex was the first one to tag him with his laser rifle.
“Attention, Wolfies! Muffin has been caught in the hunting game! Six remain!” Chris announced through a loudspeaker.
“Welp, we got our first splat,” Gex snickered. “Did he not look for his hiding spot?”
“I mean, he was desperate to be eaten alive, so it kinda makes sense for him to approach us, expecting to eat him,” Gojo shrugged.
The two men left the muffin alone.
“HEY!”
“Just leave him be, dude,” Gojo sighed.
56 MINUTES LEFT
Franky had his snorkel on.
(CONFESSIONAL) FRANKY:
“I’m hiding underwater for the rest of the game! If Ellis can do it, then why can’t I?”
He submerged below the deck. Nabiu arrived at the dock. After inspecting her surroundings, she left.
Franky resurfaced to grin.
“Haha, I knew it!”
“I feel like someone talked below the deck,” another voice was heard nearby. “Something about… ‘Haha, I knew it!’”
“Oh, shit,” Franky said.
He submerged and swam a considerable distance away. Nam-ra took a peek under the deck, thinking there would be a snorkel floating around.
“I watched the last season, and I knew someone would try this trick,” The student sighed.
54 MINUTES LEFT
Jan and Power were together. Well, Power was alone for now, relying on her nose and strength to find her victim. Meanwhile, Jan was already half-naked, wearing only a loincloth, and was crouching in the brush like a tiger.
“Ugh. What is this? Why do you look like some weirdo caveman?!” Power was baffled.
“Caveman? I’m a jungle boy!” Jan retorted excitedly. “And we’re in the jungle!”
“Aren’t those the same thing or what?” Power asked.
“I don’t know what’s caveman,” Jan admitted. “But the jungle is strength, the jungle is LIFE!”
He does a tiger pose, causing the Blood Devil to groan as she is still dragging her feet with her rifle.
“You’re so noisy! How am I supposed to find anyone with you screaming about trees?” Power muttered. “Worse, they can hear us and flee from their spot already!”
“Niki-niki! You have to feel it in the blood, Power!” Jan grinned, making the demon groan.
A minute later. The demon was growing impatient.
“WHERE’S THE ACTION?! I NEED ‘EM!” Power wailed.
Well, she’s the one being loud now over not finding someone for 10 minutes. She got bored with searching for people.
“This is stupid! I’m done playing the seeker game!” Power grumbled.
“Okay, let’s talk about something else!” Jan suggested.
“About what? Hunt prey and kill them because you’re a starving dog?” Power assumed.
“Heck, no!” Jan pouted. “Okay, yes to hunting prey because Jan used to do that to play with Pandas! Not kill! Bado-bado!”
“Panda doesn’t live in China, caveman,” Power huffed.
(CONFESSIONAL) JAN:
“Waki-waki kunai! It’s the second time someone said this to Jan! There are pandas in the jungle of Japan!”
“What about you, huh?” Jan asked. “Do you hunt prey too?”
“Well… fine, uh, yeah,” Power huffed. “I used to hunt prey in the jungle as well. Grew up there alone. Starving. Killing beasts to feed myself until I found Meowy, then those mere humans, and now I’m hunting bad devil.”
“Meowy? Who?” Jan was intrigued, not caring about her demon business.
“It’s a cat. Do you not know what that is?” Power deadpanned.
“WHOA? You have a kitty? Is he big like my sensei?” Jan was suddenly excited and crept up close to her.
“Big? Meowy’s already grown bigger!” Power said. “At least you know that we’ve grown up in the same situation.”
“Great! That means… we’re now the jungle warriors!” Jan does a tiger pose again. “Or better… an alliance!”
“Man, you know what? You’re frickin’ crazy and I like ya!” Power laughed. “Well, sure, I got nothing to do anyway! And we’ll crush this stupid game!”
Unbeknownst to them, Teto had just snuck away from her hiding spot because of their constant yelling to reveal their location.
(CONFESSIONAL) TETO:
“They’re gonna be so dumbfounded when they realize they exposed themselves by yelling!”
50 MINUTES LEFT
Huff. Huff. Huff.
“Okay, I gotta keep running from those guys—”
OOF!
Franky bumped into the Governor.
“Watch where you’re going,” The Governor warned.
“EEEK! Sorry! I was running from those snipers,” Franky muttered.
“Get up,” The Governor sighed until he had an idea. “I got something to tell you.”
“Yeah? What is it?” Franky rubbed his neck.
“Well, I figured it would be the best time to form an alliance. And you sound like a good fit for it,” The Governor offered. “And I heard you were an informant, if I remember correctly.”
“H-Huh? Did I say that?” Franky gasped.
“You said it by yourself during the introduction,” The Governor pointed out.
“Ooooh, haha, right! Well, that’s a tempting offer…” Franky put his hand on his chin. “Is there someone else?”
“Nope. Just the two of us. I figured your talent would be quite useful at gaining information from the other team or threat,” The Governor told him. “Now’s your chance to join my little group.”
“Work… with you, huh? Hmmm…” Franky was stuck in thought. “Okay… I’m in then if it means to get both of us into the final two!”
“Heh, I figured you wouldn’t miss the opportunity. Welcome, Franky,” The Governor shook his hands.
(CONFESSIONAL) GOVERNOR:
“At least he was easy to recruit. I’m not sure if I’m actually planning to keep him until the finale. He can be useful at obtaining information.”
45 MINUTES LEFT
Eve was making sure that nobody was nearby after glancing for a minute; she hadn’t seen anyone.
“The coast is clear, and I’ll just need to be careful,” Eve sighed.
She built a tiny but hidden fort with her power. She snuck inside.
“You know, this feels like a good hideout… I might expand a little if someone else is crashing in,” Eve claimed.
“WHERE ARE YOU, GUYS?!”
She recognized the voice, and it belonged to the lost swordsman.
“Seriously, what am I supposed to do with this stupid tech?” Zoro held his laser rifle.
Silence.
“How do I use this again?”
He randomly fiddled with the rifle and unknowingly pulled the trigger. Zapping the squirrel nearby.
“This is why I only stick with swords,” Zoro grumbled.
Eve was watching from her hidden fort and noticed the swordsman shooting at anything.
That man’s gonna hurt people, and I’m not sure if that ammo could run out, Eve thought.
Zoro accidentally shot his rifle again; this time, it went toward Eve’s fort, breaking them open to expose the red-haired woman.
“Huh?”
Eve looked around.
Shit…
Eve immediately bolted off from the scene, and Zoro began to chase after her.
“Oh, there you are!”
A few minutes later.
“Damn, I lost her,” Said Zoro as he was standing on the peak of the mountain.
38 MINUTES LEFT
Ruby and Jack bumped into each other.
“Oh, hey!” Ruby said. “Didn’t think I would find you!”
“Shh!”
Ruby’s mouth was blocked by her hands. “Mmmfmmfmm?”
Jack looked up, and Ruby followed her gaze. There were Jack’s minions hiding in a tree to keep watch on the area, and would signal them if they detected any seekers.
“Sorry. I wanted a little peace,” Jack-O giggled. “They haven’t found us yet.”
“Those things… what are they?” Ruby asked.
“Oh, those ? They’re my little pumpkins,” Jack claimed.
“Really? Can I play with them or something?” Ruby asked. “I’m bored and don’t want to wait until the time is up.”
“Well… I never had anyone goof around with my minions,” Jack claimed. “Don’t worry. They won’t bite or something.”
“I was going to ask you that, but cool!” Ruby said.
“What was your idol group again? B-Komando something?” Jack asked.
“B-Komachi.”
“Right! Though… I wonder… how does an idol like you decide to join the game?” Jack asked. “I’m assuming you got a lot of wealth to keep yourself since you’re already a star.”
“True, but… well, my brother originally joined to participate in this game, but then he turned down the offer at the last second, claiming he had “other priorities.” Not wanting to wash the opportunity away, I insisted on joining instead,” Ruby claimed.
“Very brave of you for joining Total Drama!” Jack clapped.
“Eh, kind of like… stubbornness,” Ruby shrugged. “What about you, Jack? What made you want to join?”
“I have only joined because I was bored,” Jack admitted while shrugging.
“That’s… fair, I guess? Hey, about your pumpkins and that giant thing you sat on when flying… that’s not something that an ordinary human would have… what were you?”
“Erm… well…”
Ruby noticed her behavior when her smile had faltered.
“Sorry about that. Didn’t mean to pry you with that question,” Ruby apologized, trying to switch the topic. “OH! How about we discuss our dinner? I wonder what it will be—AUGH!”
She was zapped as someone shot her.
“Game over for you two, ladies!” Gex called out.
“Oops, gotta run! Sorry, Ruby!” Jack was alerted and made her run for it.
Jack had already left when Gex and Gojo arrived.
“Haha, check it out, man! I got another one!” Gex exclaimed from a distance.
“Good job, buddy,” Gojo snickered.
“What a bust,” Ruby huffed.
“Ruby has been found! Five more targets to find!” Chris announced.
“Ay, Ruby! Where’s the other girl?” Gojo asked as he was looking around his surroundings.
“Why would I tell my enemy where my friend was hiding?” Ruby pouted. “I think I already lost track of her.”
“Welp, that’s a loss,” Gojo patted her shoulder before leaving with Gex.
“Yeah, a loss, buddy,” Gex snickered.
30 MINUTES LEFT
“Campers! There are only 30 minutes left to find the hiders! Don’t slack off or else you’ll be up for elimination tonight instead!” Chris announced.
Teto had been avoiding the seekers plenty of times. She was hiding behind a tree when Nam-Ra was around, then hid inside the bush when Gojo and Gex walked past. She was struggling to find a good hiding spot.
“Come on! Where’s the good hiding spot? I’m not entering a cave and getting eaten by a bear!” Teto huffed.
“Riki-riki! Over there!” A familiar voice was heard.
“Crap, did I get caught?!” Teto gulped.
Turns out it was Jan demonstrating to Power how to play with a wild bear without getting mauled to death, and Power would probably kill it and then eat its meat.
“How is this playing with a bear?” Power deadpanned.
The bear was wrestling against the Red Gekiranger.
“Waaaah! So cool!”
Power could only scratch her head, and Teto sighed in relief from afar.
“Oh, those two again,” Teto sighed.
She hid behind the bush and took a peek at the seekers. The two of them were busy discussing the jungle with each other.
A few seconds later, they’re gone from her sight. Teto left her hiding spot.
“Hmph. I guess I really underestimated this challenge! Lalala~”
Suddenly, Nabiu showed up. Teto was going to run until she noticed something strange.
“How do you hold your rifle like that if your arms are nonexistent—”
POW!
“Yup, time to go!”
Teto makes her run for it as Nabiu misses her point-blank shot. The mage began chasing after her, shooting more lasers and missing everything.
(CONFESSIONAL) NABIU:
She opened her log, trying to find information on whether she could control the laser, but no result.
They eventually run into a big tree. Teto began circling, followed by Nabiu. The mage tries to outsmart her by going reverse, and Teto did the same without the mage knowing.
“HAH! You can’t catch me from here!” Teto taunted. “I’m always running in circles, and you won’t reach me, even if you did a full reverse!”
“‘Kay,” Nabiu said.
Nabiu used her wand to toss the big tree out of her way, catching Teto off guard.
“What the heck—”
PEW!
And Teto has been hit by a laser. Nabiu waved her goodbye before leaving.
“And that’s four targets down! Teto has been captured!” Chris announced.
(CONFESSIONAL) TETO:
“That is TOTAL bullshit! Do you really expect some blue bowling ball to lift the entire tree and zap me just like that?”
27 MINUTES LATER
“Why are you still with me?” The Governor said.
“What? Aren’t we supposed to stick together as a team?” Franky said.
“We’re playing hide and seek. If they found both of us, there would be fewer people to look for,” The Governor sighed. “We should separate.”
“Damn, I guess, you’re right. Sorry about that, hehe!” Franky chuckled.
“You’re just going to leave like that?” The Governor asked.
“What? It’s better if both of us were separated like you said,” Franky shrugged.
“Ah, I see, carry on…” The Governor ordered.
“Right on!”
Franky left the scene. The Governor sighed.
“Well, there’s still 20 minutes left until we win,” The Governor said. “Just have to make sure I can find a good spot to hide—”
POW!
“GRAH?!”
He was zapped and fell to the ground.
“I got him!” Power yelled.
“Whoa, niki-niki! We caught a big bado-bado!” Jan jumps in.
“HECK YEAH! SUCK ON THAT!” Power celebrated.
A loudspeaker rang.
“The Governor has been caught! It’s down to three remaining hiders to find!” Chris announced.
The man got up.
“Dammit,” The Governor mumbled in defeat.
“YEAH, THAT’S RIGHT! POWER WINS! HAHAHAHAHAH!” She cackled as she left the area. “L, BOZO!”
“Yeah, sorry! We definitely had fun, right, Patchy the Pirate?” Jan grinned.
His eye twitched for a bit before regaining his composure.
“Hmph, I guess we did have fun,” The Governor exclaimed.
Jan followed her. The Governor could only sigh once again.
22 MINUTES LEFT
Eve found a new hiding spot by flying onto the tree.
“I’m sure nobody was capable of climbing up a tree to find me here,” Eve whispered.
She looked around from above, not a single person in sight.
“Well, I’m resting here until the time runs out… first, I need some snacks,” Eve said.
She turned some of the leaves into an edible snack to feed herself.
“Way better than whatever Chris was serving.”
20 MINUTES LEFT
Franky was sprinting around mindlessly from bush to bush because he thought the hiding spot was terrible. He stopped in his tracks, exhausted.
“Man, I’ve been running in circles,” Franky groaned.
Suddenly, he felt something pressed against his back.
“Hey, I found out… Wait… Who are you again? Which side are you on?”
It was Zoro, pointing his rifle at his body. Franky slowly turned around to face him.
“Uh… your teammate! I’m with the seekers, of course!” Franky lied. “I was really on your side! I’m Franky Franklin!”
“Franky?” Zoro gasped.
“Yup, that’s me!” Franky said smugly before realizing the final detail. “Oh, uh, I have lost my rifle on my way trying to catch those hiders earlier.”
Zoro was stunned.
“Uh… Zoro? You good?” Franky asked.
“You’re Franky? From the same Straw Hat crew? What the hell happened to ya, kid? You were a cyborg with huge metal arms, and now you got rid of all of that just to become some ugly hag?”
“UGLY HAG?!” Franky was offended.
“What the hell? I’m serious. Where the hell is your metal body?” Zoro narrowed his eyes. “You looked shrunken and looked like some washed-up salesman.”
“Watch where your mouth is going, you moss-haired caveman!” Franky shot back.
“Moss-haired?! Now you’re acting like Sanji!” Zoro gritted his teeth.
“I’ve been called for a lot of things, but nobody DISS this face!”
“What face? You looked like you were put in a dryer in high heat!”
“I’m an informant! Not whatever that sci-fi bullcrap!” Franky defended himself. “I’m Franky Franklin! Master informant, intelligence broker, and ladies’ men extraordinaire! Don’t make me tell you thrice!”
“Ladies’ men? Wow, you really spent a lot of time with Sanji,” Zoro sighed. “Now that’s two crewmates I can’t stand with.”
They continued bickering and throwing verbal insults at each other until Zoro finally realized something.
“Hold on… those vests… only the hiders wear them,” Zoro thought.
“Huh? Oooooh! That! Let’s call it some fashion statement,” Franky excused himself.
“Nice try, you’re lying,” Zoro unsheathed his swords.
“EEEK! HOLD ON! YOU WERE SUPPOSED TO CAPTURE ME WITH YOUR RIFLE!” Franky screamed.
Zoro immediately sheathed his swords and pointed his rifle toward the broker’s body.
“OH, WAIT! LOOK! THERE’S SANJAY BEHIND YOU! I FORGOT HIS NAME!”
“SANJI?! I’ll get him!” Zoro bought his lie and turned around.
Freeze.
He turned around, and Franky was running away from him, not out of his sight yet.
“HEY, GET BACK HERE YOU FRAUD!” Zoro yelled.
Franky was sprinting for his life. He turned around.
“Oh, man. That was tiring, I need a vacation or something after this,” Franky sighed.
Zoro did follow him. “GET OVER HERE, FAKE FRANKY!”
“FUCK!”
The informant continued to sprint, and he didn’t notice the new person in front of him.
“Heya, Franky—”
CRASH!
Both of them fell to the ground after the crash.
“Ow! That really hurts!” Jack groaned.
Before Franky could apologize to her properly. Zoro appeared out of the bush and aimed his rifle toward the informant.
“I found you!” Zoro shouted.
“WAH! SORRY!” Franky apologized and kept running.
Zoro just ran past Jack, completely ignoring her. Jack later got up in confusion.
“What was that for—”
ZAP!
Crash.
Gex’s laser zapped her. Gex and Gojo left their spot and grinned at their recent catch.
“Man, I was going to capture her,” Gojo whined. “You beat me to it!”
“Third catch in a day, baby! Better luck next time, Blindspot!” Gex mocked him. “And hey, I got the Valentine lady!” Gex laughed. “She can be my valentine!”
Silence.
“Okay, fine! We keep looking for the others!” Gex hummed.
“That’s what I wanted to hear!” Gojo grinned.
“Jack has been caught! Two targets left!” Chris announced loudly.
15 MINUTES LEFT
“Fifteen minutes… I can take it…” Eve hummed. “I gotta keep watch on my surroundings.”
Eve was chilling inside a tree until she heard a scream. She took a peek, and it was Franky.
“Franky?” Eve whispered.
Zoro was chasing him.
“Oh, him… I thought he’d be lost again,” Eve joked.
Meanwhile, below the tree.
“Huh?”
The person smelled someone through a scent, and the source was inside a tree. They aimed their rifle…
Eve was still watching Franky screaming like an idiot.
“Franky… if you keep screaming like that, you’d be caught—AAH!”
Eve was zapped and fell off a tree, landing with a huge crash.
“Oh no, did I hurt you?” The seeker said worriedly.
Eve had recovered from the zap.
“Agh! Who caught me?” Eve asked.
It was Nam-ra who caught the unlucky hidden superhero.
“You? I was expecting someone like Gojo or Jan…” Eve said.
“Sorry, I just… thought something was inside a tree when I heard a creaking noise,” Nam-ra claimed. “I’m sorry for hurting you as well…”
“I guess I wasn’t being careful enough,” Eve sighed as she got up. “Don’t worry about it, I’m still good to move.”
Nam-ra nodded, and before she could leave.
RIIIING!
Nam-ra clutched her ears again when Chris announced that Eve had been caught, leaving Franky as the last hider.
“A-Are you alright?” Eve asked.
“I’m fine! Nothing’s wrong… I just have very sensitive ears,” Nam-ra claimed.
Eve could only nod.
13 MINUTES LEFT
“Gah, my back!” Franky winced.
“I’m coming for you!”
“Shiiiiiit, uhhh, think, Franky, think!”
Later.
“Damn, where’s that fraud hiding at?” Zoro growled.
He noticed a slight movement nearby. He grinned and approached the person, assuming it was Franky.
“Alright, there you are—”
It was Franky wearing a beard and using a cane to disguise himself as an old man. The swordsman raised his eyebrow in suspicion.
“Hmm…”
He looked closer to the ‘old man.’
Please… Franky begged inwardly.
“What’s with that nasty stare?! These young’uns never respect their elders…” Franky tried to fit in as an old man.
“Hey, old man,” Zoro greeted, causing Franky to freeze.
“E-Eh, s-speak up, who’s there, sonny?” Franky muttered.
“Have you seen an ugly man wearing a vest? His name was Franky,” Zoro asked.
“Ooooh, that rascal ran that way…!”
The ‘old man’ pointed in the opposite direction to drive the swordsman away.
“Huh, thanks, old man,” Zoro actually thanked him. “You’re less annoying than the target I know.”
He left in that direction. Franky immediately ran off.
(CONFESSIONAL) FRANKY:
“How did this stupid plan work?! Seriously! Maybe I am indeed the master of disguise!”
10 MINUTES LEFT
Franky reached the main area.
“Ugh, man! I can’t believe I’m the last hider in this game!” Franky grunted. “There are 10 minutes until I win for my team.”
He looked around his surroundings. “Actually, this might be the best spot for me to hide!”
He tried to hide behind a rock. “Wait a minute, this is stupid.”
He’s trying to climb onto a tree and hilariously fails as he slips back down.
“Ough…”
Then something slipped into his mind.
“OH! Maybe if I had gone hiding underwater again. Nobody will check this time!”
He was going back to the water, but he spotted Nam-ra guarding the dock.
“Abort!”
When he turned around, he saw that Gex and Gojo were behind and hadn’t noticed him, and on his right, Power and Jan were doing whatever they’re doing in the woods, leaving Franky with no choice.
“Argh, where the hell am I hiding?!” Franky grunted.
He noticed he was standing near his team’s cabin.
“Maybe I can lie under the bed and—”
Zoro comes out of the cabin, looking distraught.
“Dammit… uh… OH!”
He decided to hide under his team’s cabin and put on some leaves to hide his face.
“This is stupid, but I hope this one works…” Franky whispered to himself.
“Attention campers! You have less than 10 minutes to find Franky!” Chris warned.
“Damn, where is the final girl?” Gojo rubbed his hair.
“Who knows! Maybe he was really far away from our position!” Gex said. “Or he’s playing a spy game with us.”
Franky noticed plenty of seekers were walking past the cabin where he was hiding.
6 MINUTES LEFT
Jan and Power were trying their best to look for Franky.
“Gosh, this is boring! We already caught someone, let’s screw out and have a break!” Power yawned.
“Jan hasn’t found the last bado-bado yet!” Jan pouted as he was standing on a tree branch.
He noticed a slight movement from a bush.
“Shh! Jan found something!”
Power tilted her head as Jan jumped down and approached the bush. He heard some humming inside.
“FOUND YOU!”
He ripped the bush open… and saw Nabiu playing around with her acorns with magic, making her spooked.
“Sorry,” Jan apologized and left her.
“Great, we found nothing!” Power groaned.
“Look! Our wild friends are hanging out in the main area!” Jan called out. “Let’s meet them!”
“Fine,” Power huffed.
5 MINUTES LEFT
Literally everyone except for Nabiu had gathered. Yes, Zoro was here, surprisingly.
“Has any of you found a lead to find Franky?” Nam-ra asked.
“NO! I don’t care anymore. Power already captured someone!” Power grunted.
“I haven’t,” Jan sighed.
“Same,” Gojo shrugged.
“Hmph, tell me about it. I almost had Franky twice and lost him,” Zoro hissed. “Also, put on your damn clothes!”
They looked at Jan, wearing leather pants and smeared in mud.
“Yeah, even Nabiu caught someone,” Gex claimed. “But still not enough than me who had caught three people, ohoho!”
“We don’t care, salamander!” Power groaned.
“Why are we even here for a meeting?” Nam-ra said. “We should spread out.”
“I think all of us had met coincidentally and decided to hold a meeting,” Gojo shrugged.
“SERIOUSLY! WHERE’S THE UGLY HAG?! I’m booooooored!” Power groaned.
“I’m sure Chris will be nice enough to give us a hint for the last hider!” Gex claimed.
“I find that hard to believe,” Zoro huffed.
Franky was suddenly shaking nervously. “Please… win…”
1 MINUTE LEFT
“Okay, campers. Since your lazy butts couldn’t find the last man. Your only clue is that he’s hiding around the main area!” Chris gave everyone a hint.
Suddenly, the main area was crowded again.
(CONFESSIONAL) FRANKY:
“FUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU—”
“YAY, A LEAD! LET’S HUNT THIS UGLY MAN DOWN!” Power celebrated.
“I thought you gave up on searching?” Jan tilted his head.
“Yeah, but I changed my mind already! Let’s go!” Power gritted her teeth.
“Come on! We already looked around this area, and Zoro got lost again!” Gex huffed.
“Ok,” Nabiu reacted.
“YOU! When did you show up?” Gex asked.
“Right now?” Nabiu replied.
“Has anyone investigated the cabins?” Nam-ra suggested.
Silence.
“You’re right. Let’s search the cabins and go wild!” Jan followed her.
Pleeeeeeeeeeeeeease, spare me! Franky begged.
He already noticed some of the seekers surrounding the cabin where he was hiding. None of them had looked under it yet.
30 SECONDS LEFT
“Hey! I can’t find him in his cabin!” Jan replied.
“Then look for our team cabin! This guy will die in the meanest way possible if he invades our privacy!” Power suggested.
“That guy was smart enough not to hide in his team’s cabin,” Gojo shrugged.
“We’re investigating outside, you guys will check the other cabin,” Nam-ra suggested.
20 SECONDS LEFT
“OKAY, WHERE IS HE?!” Power complained.
“He’s not here, waki-waki!?” Jan rubbed his hair in agony.
“Gah, this is useless. Oh, well, I’m going to take a nap,” Power snored. “I don’t care anyway, since I have already caught someone, so I’m safe from being voted out!”
She slept on her bed. Jan shrugged and left her.
10 SECONDS LEFT
“Gex. I feel like we’re missing something obvious,” Gojo was talking near Franky.
“Oh, yeah? What is it, pal?” Gex said.
“I—uh, never mind… Forget I said anything,” Gojo sighed in frustration.
“Dammit, dude. You just wasted the worth of five seconds!” Gex growled.
“Yeah, sorry about that, pal,” Gojo apologized.
Gojo and Gex moved until they were no longer in Franky’s sight.
5 SECONDS LEFT
Franky sighed in relief. He was about to feel peace at the sorcerer’s departure—
CRACK!
Gojo suddenly peeked under the porch with a big grin and a laser rifle pointed at him.
“PEEK-A-BOO!”
Girly scream.
DING!
“And that’s it! The bears have captured everyone! The Wolves were just one second away from winning their first challenge!”
“You’ve got to be joking,” The Governor sighed.
“So close,” Teto groaned.
“Aw, what happened?” Ruby said. “We were a second left from winning!”
“Gah?! Where did you puny humans come from?” Power grunted.
“We were waiting in our cabin until the game was over,” Eve answered.
“Yeah, can you imagine our reaction when Zoro barged into our cabin with his swords?” Ruby said.
“I was lost,” Zoro shrugged.
“You see that, Gex? I finally caught someone!” Gojo strikes a pose.
“That’s only a person! I’m still the overall winner for catching three of them!” Gex snickered.
“Berserker Bears! Congratulations on winning your first challenge, while the poor Wolves will lose one of their herds tonight,” Chris grinned.
“Man, I can’t wait! Is it TV?” Gex wished.
“No!” Chris retorted. “Instead, you will get to enjoy… this!”
They get a jar of pickles.
“Dude, you’re in some kind of pickle right now,” Gex hummed.
“Yeah, have fun with your dinner. For the Wolves… You have a few hours to decide who to boot at the elimination!” Chris told the losers.
“Is it a vote on who shall die tonight?” Muffin gasped.
Everyone looked down at the living muffin with a deadpan expression.
(CONFESSIONAL) RUBY:
“Gee, I sure wonder who’s going home tonight.”
=
Every Wolves member gathered at the campfire, and Chris was standing near the fire pit with a tray of six marshmallows. It wasn’t about the lack of the chef’s presence; it was the giant roller coaster loop in front of them.
“I don’t think I have seen that thing when we arrived at this island,” The Governor stated.
“Yeah… wait… you’re right!” Franky backed him up.
“What’s with that giant roller coaster?” Ruby pointed out.
“Oh, that’s very special and only the eliminated camper will get to ride one!” Chris giggled.
“Is this one of your elimination methods?” Jack assumed.
“Maybe, I’ll introduce the Merry-Go-Whirl to tonight’s loser,” Chris shrugged. “But since Chef Hatchet isn’t here for an indefinite amount of time . I will take care of most of his work tonight.”
“No call out for our failure or anything?” Eve asked.
“No, that’s Chef’s business, well, no wonder things got boring here!” Chris huffed.
He picked up a marshmallow.
“If I called your name. You’re safe and get to enjoy a marshmallow; if not, then you’ll be riding on the Merry-Go-Whirl for the first and last time! The first marshmallow goes to… Teto.”
“Eve.”
“Jack-O.”
“Ruby.”
“And Governor.”
Franky nervously gulps, and Muffin smiles.
Franky and Muffin. One of you will be leaving with four votes… well, knowing it would be obvious, I’m still gonna make it dramatic. The final marshmallow goes to…”
…
…
…
…
…
…
“Franky! You barely made it out alive. Mr. Muffin, it’s time for you to go.”
Nobody was surprised, and Muffin was really happy.
“It’s time!” Muffin said.
“No, you’re not getting eaten, Muffin. You will ride the Merry-Go-Whirl,” Chris deadpanned.
“Aw, what?! Why?! I thought I would be eaten!” Muffin whined.
“Please, you don’t have to do this, Muffin!” Jack pleaded.
“Huh?”
“You have so much to live for! Think of everything you can do in here, like playing games, making friends, or imagining every breakfast buffet you could attend! Not be!” Jack claimed. “Back me up on this one, guys! Dying is bad, right?”
“UH… yeah! Dying’s bad, and I had experienced it once…” Ruby said quietly. “Don’t worry, though, I’ve moved on.”
“What do you mean you died once—you’re bluffing,” Franky accused.
“But, I’m a muffin! My entire purpose was to be eaten!” Muffin responded.
“Trust me, you don’t want to…” Eve sighed.
“Please…” Muffin pleaded.
“You have friends here! How would they react if you died? They would feel sad!” Jack told him.
“We didn’t even talk to him—”
“SHHH!”
Muffin was stuck in thought before looking at Jack again.
“You’re right! Maybe dying isn’t so bad. I want to keep living!” Muffin said.
Everyone blinked.
“To be honest, I didn’t think that worked,” The Governor complimented. “Congrats for having some sense.”
“Yeah, only if you girls had done that earlier, and we might’ve won,” Franky sighed.
“Don’t worry about it! I deserve this elimination, and I wanna explore the world now, thanks to Jack!” Muffin claimed.
“There! Now, that’s what I wanted to see! I’m so proud of your development.”
Power arrives.
“DID SHE JUST—” Ruby gasped.
Power had already fled the scene, leaving Chris and the Wolves in shock.
“THIS CUPCAKE TASTES HORRIBLY THAN THE PICKLES!” Power’s distant scream was heard.
Awkward silence.
“Okaaay, I guess Muffin is considered *missing* now.” Chris does an awkward chuckle.
Nobody laughs.
“More like dead,” The Governor shot back.
“Well, yeah, technically, he’s dead. But he exists as food, and food is meant to be consumed.” Chris retorted.
They kept an eye on him.
“Oh, fine ! I’ll deal with this matter, probably, and you guys can head back to your cabin now,” Chris pouted.
Everyone left.
“What a shocker. Well, it was his downfall to begin with when he approached the seekers and offered himself to be eaten instead of doing the challenge. I’m sure not a single person would care about him, and he’s definitely happy that his wish has been fulfilled. The worst part is that I didn’t get to use Merry-Go-Whirl! Okay, maybe next time! 13 campers remain! Who will be going out next? Find out on the next episode of Total. Drama! GAIDEN!”

Chapter Text
“Last time on Total Drama Gaiden! Two teams had settled into their cabins and enjoyed their breakfast as usual. The first challenge they were fighting for was a jar of pickles, which was a simple game of hide and seek. The Wolves were sent into hiding, and the Bears have gone hunting. Jan and Power have bonded over growing up in the woods, and then we’ll just cut straight to the good part. Franky had been messing around with the seekers by playing tricks against the lost swordsman, and he was the last survivor in the game. Unfortunately, he was a second away from winning when Gojo crashed in with a surprise! Muffin was the first camper to be booted and… had some errors during his departure. Don’t worry, Muffin’s fine or anything! He’s safe now! Trust me! Anyway, we’re down to thirteen campers left, who will be going home next? Find out on this episode of Total. Drama! GAIDEN!”
[INTRO]
Almost everyone gathered in the cafeteria. They’re not eating the microwaved slop provided by Chris.
“Why are we even here if we didn’t want to eat it?” The Governor muttered.
“I don’t know, Chris always calls us to come here,” Franky sighed. “You guys were lucky that you won a literal food yesterday!”
“Eugh, I don’t like pickles!” Gex cringed. “There’s a reason why we threw them away.”
“YOU THREW THEM AWAY?! IT’S STILL FOOD!” Franky yelled.
“Gooood morning, campers!”
It was Chris.
“I see that our chef hasn’t arrived once again!” Chris grunted. “Seriously. Where the hell is he?”
“I’m here, Chris.”
Chris turned around and saw the man he was looking for. He had a bowl haircut and a mark on his face.
“Finally! The chef is here! Where have you been, Mash?”
“Oh, uh, I was busy with other things,” Mash shrugged. “I apologize for not being present yesterday…”
“Yeah, yeah, I get it, dude. You were training as usual,” Chris sighed.
“That man doesn’t look like a cook,” The Governor murmured.
“Yeah, he’s kind of… a magic student?” Jack assumed.
“Damn, we got a Harry Potter? I mean, Harry Squatter ,” Gex snickered.
“So… can you actually cook something for us?” Ruby asked.
“Yes. It isn’t that hard. I had cooked plenty of times,” Mash admitted.
“Let’s see if your little story came true,” The Governor sighed. “Well then, our group’s hungry. Gotta feed them something right now.”
“Alright,” Mash replied politely.
The chef put on his hat and entered his kitchen to begin cooking. They could smell good stuff outside.
“Whoa, it… Smells nice,” Eve admitted.
“Indeed,” Nam-ra added quietly.
“That guy must’ve had a rat hidden inside his hat and controlled him like a pro chef!” Gex accused loudly.
“We don’t care about your weird jokes,” Franky grunted.
“No, that’s wrong! I’m serious about a possible Ratatouille reference!” Gex replied.
Silence.
(CONFESSIONAL) GEX:
“Man, you guys are very uncultured!”
Mash exits the kitchen with a tray.
“Hooboy! I smell peak!” Franky drooled.
It was a plate of cream puffs.
“I could’ve sworn you were cooking a stew based on the smell,” Eve claimed.
“Yeah, that’s the stew,” Mash admitted as he was eating a cream puff.
“Are you serious? That’s not a stew,” Gojo added.
“I dunno, I was cooking a stew and it turned out like this,” Mash shrugged.
Nam-ra tried one of the puffs and began chowing the rest of it.
“It’s… good,” Nam-ra was surprised.
“Lemme try it,” The Governor offered. “This tastes… like a beef stew?”
“Uh, yeah, I said I was making a stew,” Mash muttered.
“Damn, it’s so good! Way better than Chef Hatchet’s cooking!” Gex said. “Bravo, Ratatouille!”
“Rat-ta-tat—what?” Mash tilted his head.
After a few minutes of eating goods. Gex had remembered something.
“WHERE is Gojo anyway?” Gex talked to himself.
“And the rest of our teammates,” Nam-ra sighed.
“We’re missing Teto,” Ruby shrugged. “I wanna go see her again.”
Jan was watching the bear cubs playing around in the woods.
“Riki-riki! New friends to play!” Jan said excitedly.
“Oh, whatcha got here, jungle buddy?”
He turned around to see Gojo with a curious look.
“Niki-niki! A new wild man?” Jan said excitedly.
“Uh, no, I’m just a man ,” Gojo replied. “What are you doing here?”
“Jan’s going to play with those bears!” He pointed at the cubs.
“Sounds fun. They don’t sound harmless… what about their mother?” Gojo asked.
“Yeah, that’s what Jan has been wondering!” Jan assumed. “Probably busy catching dinner for her cubs!”
“Sounds fair,” Gojo hummed.
Power appeared with a slab of meat, and she was covered in blood.
“Oi, eat this, jungle boy,” Power mumbled.
Jan took a sniff before chewing it. Really liking it. Power also does the same.
“So nice! I can eat this all day! By the way, are you covered in tomato?” Jan asked.
Power replied. “Who the heck knows?”
Gojo was a little weirded out. “Where did you get that from?”
“I killed a bear!” Power whispered to him as she was grinning.
“You’re just gonna eat ‘em raw?” Gojo raised his eyebrow.
“Heck yeah! We’re being wild for a reason!” Jan cheered.
“Mhm, now get our belly full!” Power commanded.
As the two were enjoying the meal. Gojo looked at the bear cubs again, remembering that Power revealed that she had killed a bear for them to eat.
“You don’t happen to kill a mother bear of two, right?” Gojo whispered.
“Huh? What mother bear?” Power’s voice was muffled.
“Bear of what?” Jan was munching on his meat.
“Uh… Never mind,” Gojo shrugged. “Have fun with your… breakfast.”
(CONFESSIONAL) GOJO:
“Man, I feel bad for those cubs. They will grow up wondering where their mother has gone off to.”
“Attention campers! Head to the amphitheater for your next challenge!” Chris announced through a megaphone.
“Amphitheatre?” Ruby gasped. “You don’t mean… The singing contest?!”
“I hope so,” Teto said. “Looking forward to working with you!”
“To feel hopeless. I think we’re gonna be playing something involving wheel of lucks,” The Governor answered.
“That too,” Nam-ra followed by.
Everyone had gathered at the amphitheatre, and it was strangely empty. Zoro was the only camper who hadn’t arrived yet.
“He got lost again?” Chris deadpanned.
“Uh-huh,” Eve answered.
“Hey, blueberry! Do something!” Chris called Nabiu.
“Okay!” Nabiu agreed to help.
Nabiu used her staff and broke a few trees just to pull Zoro with her magic. Several campers cringed at the sight of destruction, and Chris wasn’t fazed at all, having gotten used to the island being destroyed by certain things. A few minutes later, Nabiu managed to snatch Zoro back.
“Damn, I swear if it's one of those Marine—oh, it’s just you,” Zoro calmed down.
“Marine?” Teto asked.
“Nothing,” Zoro huffed. “Is this the amphitheatre?”
“Yes, it is, Zoro,” Chris answered.
“Good. What do we do here?” Zoro asked.
They looked at Chris, demanding he explain. Chris grinned.
“Welcome to… Wheel of Disgustingness!”
“Wheel of… what?” Power said.
“Disgustingness.”
“Yeah, but what is it about?” Power asked.
“Oh. Well, I heard you guys needed lunch, right?” Chris grinned.
“I don’t like where this is going,” Eve sighed.
“Yeah? And this challenge is going to ruin your appetite or not,” Chris shrugged. “For this challenge, one member from their team will step up, and I spin the wheel to decide which dessert you will be eating. If you swallowed everything, you get a point. If you didn’t finish it or vomit, then no point for you!”
Mash was carrying a giant wheel with one arm and placed it on the ground gently. It had at least a hundred kinds of ‘unique dishes’ being covered by a cloche.
“How did he carry that with one arm?” Jack asked.
“And none of them had fallen???” Nam-ra questioned.
“Muscle,” Mash replied before leaving in a hurry.
“Probably gone to another training session. First team to reach five points wins immunity, and the losing team will have to send someone home tonight! First round… Franky for the Wolves, and Zoro for the bears!”
“Oh, great,” Franky gulped.
“Hey, again,” Zoro said in a scary tone.
“If there’s no objection, then I will start spinning the wheel! First dish coming right up!” Chris spun the wheel.
DING!
Franky and Zoro were praying that their dish wasn’t that horrid. Zoro was the first to remove the cover, and it was a brown smoothie.
“Do you think it’s a good time to ask what this was made of?” Franky asked.
“Huh, just a drink? Alright, I’ll take it,” Zoro chugged them. “It tastes… strange.”
“Yeah, it’s a smoothie made with a hundred cockroaches!” Chris chuckled.
Zoro held his hand to his mouth as he ran toward the bathroom.
“Well, no point for you guys,” Chris announced, causing the Bears to groan. “Let’s see what kind of dish Franky will have!”
Franky gulped and removed the cover. It revealed a hamburger filled with termites, rotten vegetables, fish, and an eyeball. Several campers were disgusted.
(CONFESSIONAL) JACK:
“I feel bad for this man.”
“Aw, what the HECK is this?!” Franky was disgusted.
“It’s your junk food!” Chris laughed. “Well? Wanna score a point or no?”
Franky was considering dropping out of eating the ‘hamburger’ until he noticed the Governor’s glare, although it didn’t have malicious intent.
“Argh, screw it!” Franky took the burger.
After 10 minutes of chewing the absolute hell dish. He finally managed to finish them without vomiting.
“Ugh…”
“Good work, Franky! I knew you would like them!” Chris announced. “One point for the Wolves! May we begin the second round: Nam-ra for Bears and Jack for Wolves!”
(CONFESSIONAL) FRANKY:
“I scored a point for our team! I hope that secure my position tonight if we lose!”
He began to puke in the bucket.
Two girls stood between the wheel, and Chris spun it.
After it landed. Two girls uncovered their dish. Nam-ra has a plate of larvae, and Jack has a slice of ‘cake’ made of dirt.
“Oh-ho! A dirt cake and a plate of maggots . You guys will love it!” Chris said smugly.
“Egh… I’ll do my best,” Jack sighed.
“I see a dozen of them… this shouldn’t be heard,” Nam-ra stated.
Jack was eating them slowly and was grossed out; meanwhile, Nam-ra ate everything with no problem and scored a point for her team; a cheer was heard.
“One point for the Bears! Let’s see if Jack can finish it!” Chris said.
“There’s no time duration, right?” Jack asked.
“Yeah, no time limit,” Chris answered.
50 minutes later.
“Okay, we’re adding a time limit, and you will have one minute to finish everything now!” Chris groaned. “But you still finished it, so you scored a point for the Wolves! It’s 2-1!”
“At least I made it,” Jack shrugged.
“Third round! Ruby for the Wolves and Gex for the Bears!”
The two of them stood up, and Chris spun the wheel.
Once their dish had been decided. Ruby took her cover off, and it was a strawberry cupcake, and Gex had a living octopus to eat. The octopus lunged toward him.
“GAH! BAD SQUID!” Gex screamed.
The Bears were helping Gex to remove the octopus, save for Nabiu attempting to summon a thunderbolt until she was held back by Nam-ra. Ruby grabbed her cupcake and tried to take a bite.
“Careful, Ruby. That one seems suspicious,” The Governor warned her.
“What? It’s just an ordinary cupcake,” Ruby stated.
As soon as the cupcake made contact with her lips, it blew up, covering her face in ashes.
“GAH?!” Ruby was shocked and tried to wipe the ash off her face.
“Dammit,” The Governor sighed.
“Oops. You have fallen for a trap! What about Gex?” He looked at the gecko.
Well, the gecko wasn’t faring better as his teammates were still struggling to remove the octopus.
Ding.
“Welp, one minute is up! No more eating!” Chris said. “None of you scored a point for your team.”
“Oh, come on! How can you even finish an entire octopus in one minute?” Gojo hummed.
“He’s a living cartoon character. I’m sure he could do it,” Chris shrugged.
They finally got rid of the octopus, and Nabiu sent it far away.
“Okay, that was just rude!” Chris huffed. “Whatever. Fourth round! Gojo for Bears and Governor for Wolves!”
“I’m sure both of us will enjoy the challenge,” Gojo grinned.
“Same could be said to you,” The Governor huffed.
After the wheel was spun and the cover was removed. The Governor found a long, circular meat. After inspecting it closely, he took a bite.
Gojo was a lucky man when he only had to eat a slice of apple.
“Oh-ho, what a damn luck!” Gojo grinned as the Wolves began to groan.
“What the heck is this?” The Governor enjoyed the food.
“A bull’s penis—”
SPLAT!
He spat the food out of his mouth immediately.
“Okay, no point for you then!” Chris was pissed that he spat at him.
(CONFESSIONAL) THE GOVERNOR:
“Had I refrained from asking that . I might’ve scored a point and maybe traumatized for life.”
Gojo finished his apple, scoring a point for his team.
“We’re tied at 2-2! Three more to win the challenge, get your stomach ready!” Chris announced. “Fifth round! Jan for the Bears, and Teto for the Wolves!”
“Jan’s gonna eat his lunch, waki-waki!” Jan cheered.
“Bring it on, old man,” Teto retorted.
Chris spun the wheel, and their dish had been decided. Jan will be eating a single living puppy. Several campers were in awe.
“Oh, what a nice catch! Have fun with your meal!” Chris grinned.
(CONFESSIONAL) EVE:
“Honestly, I’ve faced a lot of crap in my universe, but this is just wrong with a hundred reasons.”
“Wah! Jan won’t eat that!” Jan backed out and was on the verge of tears.
“Are you seriously crying over an ant?!” Power gasped.
“It’s a DOG!” Franky screamed.
“Meh, I’m a cat person,” Power muttered.
“Welp, no point for the Bears,” Chris shrugged. “What about you, Teto?”
Teto had to eat an oyster. She was investigating carefully if it was another trap, but her teammates were already telling her to finish it because the time was running out soon.
“Done!” Teto said.
“Shell included,” Chris said.
“I’m outta here,” Teto gave up.
“That sucks. No points for both of you!” Chris hissed. “For the sixth round. Eve for the Wolves and Power for the Bears!”
“Heh, this challenge seems easy,” Power grinned.
“Sure,” Eve deadpanned.
Their dish has been picked by the wheel. The two of them took off the cover. Eve has a spaghetti of worms, and Power has a stew made of garbage.
“Ugh… this is just… yeah,” Eve cringed.
“Bleh! Not a single meat on sight!” Power was baffled.
Eve sighed. “Okay, I’ll do my best.”
She took a fork and began to eat them, cringing at everyone else.
(CONFESSIONAL) EVE:
“You know, I could’ve used my power, but I’m saving it for the sake of my game.”
Power was also eating her “stew.”
DING!
“Time’s up, ladies! Eve has barely finished her spaghetti worms, and Power was one bite away from securing a point!” Chris announced. “The Wolves are leading 3-2!”
Power grunted in dissatisfaction as Eve sighed in relief, clutching her stomach.
“Well, since the Wolves ran out of their members. We will repeat the order from the first person again, meaning Franky will have to play for the Bears, and the last Wolves member, Nabiu, for the seventh round!”
The host finished spinning the wheel for their dish.
Franky took off the cover, and a literal moose came out from it, and it was huge.
(CONFESSIONAL) TETO:
“HOW DID THAT THING FIT INSIDE A CLOCHE?!”
“Wah… NO! I’m not eating that!” Franky groaned.
However, Nabiu took off her cover and revealed an eldritch monster, screaming at the mage, causing everyone to hide.
“AAAAH, ZOWA-ZOWA!” Jan yelled.
“WE GOTTA LEAVE, SON!” Gex panicked.
“Hold on, I got this!” Power summoned her blood hammer. “Got some action to do!”
Instead, Nabiu simply used her wand to toss the monster away. She had gained a lot of XP for killing them.
“What the fuck, bruh?” Power deadpanned.
(CONFESSIONAL) GOJO:
“I wonder where that man got those kinds of ‘dish’ from? Would be funny if one of Sukuna’s fingers showed up.”
Chris didn’t move an inch during the incident. “No point for Nabiu! What about Franky?”
“Dude, I’m not eating that,” Franky sighed.
“That thing won’t harm you, I think,” Chris awkwardly tries to motivate the informant. “Not satisfied? Well, I’ll show you that it’s not harmful.”
He slapped its back, causing the moose to be angered and kick Franky into the sky with its hind legs.
“YOU’LL PAY FOR THIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIS!” Franky yelled until his voice faded.
The moose had left the area.
“Erm, awkward,” Chris chuckled. “Eighth round! Zoro for the Bears and Jack-O for the Wolves!”
Jack stood up to the wheel, and Zoro…
“Has anyone seen Zoro?” Nam-ra asked.
“Oh, last I remembered… he went to find the bathroom after drinking a cockroach smoothie,” Gojo claimed. “He… hasn’t returned.”
“How come we didn’t notice his absence?” Nabiu asked.
“Too busy, I guess,” Power shrugged.
“It’s a skip then, not my fault that he was lost,” Chris cackled. “No point for the Bears, and Jack will perform.”
The Bears groaned as Jack’s dish was chosen. She had to eat a leech.
“Aw, no!” Jack cringed.
“WIN FOR US, JACK!” Teto screamed.
“You managed to finish a dirt cake; a leech shouldn’t be a problem,” The Governor said.
Jack gulped and began to eat it. After a few seconds of agony, she managed to swallow everything and showed the inside of her mouth to Chris.
“Good work, Jacko! That’s 4-2 for you guys! One more point and your team wins the challenge!” Chris grinned. “The Bears have some catch-ups to do.”
“What was Zoro’s dish anyway?” Jan asked.
Chris took off the cover, revealing a piece of a hot apple pie.
“He could’ve scored a point for us if he wasn’t lost!” Power gritted her teeth.
“Sucks for you, then. Do better next round!” Chris said. “Nam-ra for the Bears, and Ruby for the Wolves next!”
Chris spun the wheel the moment both of them stood between them. Their dish has been chosen. Nam-ra had a bowl of fish, and Ruby had a pizza made of bat's skins.
“I-I don’t think I’m eating this, I’m sorry,” Ruby sighed.
“It’s alright,” Eve shrugged. “They’re still far behind.”
“Nam-ra? Are you gonna eat the fish?”
Without hesitation, she immediately grabbed the fish and shoved it into her mouth; everyone’s jaw was left hanging open.
“I finished it. Did I score?” Nam-ra asked shyly.
“Yeah! 4-3 now!” Chris announced. “I had lost count for the round, but Gex should go for the Bears next, and the Governor for the Wolves.”
“Hooboy, what will I be eating today?” Gex licked his lips.
The Governor will have to eat a cow’s brain, and Gex will only have to drink a lemonade.
“Sweet, momma! I hit a jackpot!” Gex celebrated as he sipped his drink.
“If the Governor managed to finish his meal, he would win for his team,” Chris said. “Gex has scored a point, leaving 4-4.”
“I… abstain,” The Governor replied with a sigh.
The Wolves groaned.
“You ate a bull’s penis, I’m sure you can handle that—”
The Governor gave her a nasty glare, causing Teto to pout. “Whatever.”
Gex high-fived with Gojo, and he was next to go.
“Gojo for the Bears and Teto for the Wolves for this round!”
The wheel was spun, and they chose their dish. Teto has a plate of a living electric eel, and Gojo has a plate of rubber boots.
“Whoa, whoa, whoooooa. You’re expecting me to eat that ?” Gojo tilted his head.
“Hey, if Mr. Krabs can do it, then you can!” Gex snickered.
“Doesn’t help when I don’t see any deep fryer nearby,” Gojo admitted.
Meanwhile, Teto was electrocuted the moment she grabbed the eel. A minute later, nobody had eaten their meal.
“No points for both of you! Seriously!” Chris grunted. “Eve and Jan! You two are next!”
Eve will have a plate of maggot cheese, and Jan will have a plate of a single ant.
“Haw?” Jan tilted his head. “Just that little kitty?”
“It’s an ant,” Nam-ra corrected him.
“I… uh…” Eve gulped.
“Hmmm, Jan can’t do!” Jan shrugged and gave up.
“WHAT?!” Gex exclaimed. “Okay, I get the puppy, but no way you will abstain from eating an ant?”
“Ants are yucky,” Nabiu stated.
Jan was already standing by his team.
“Oh my god, bruh,” Gex said.
“I can’t eat it,” Eve gave up as well.
“No points once again!” Chris huffed. “You guys really have a terrible diet.”
“Gee, I wonder why,” Ruby said.
“Guys, I’m back,” Franky returned, looking rusty.
“Oh, good. You’re back! You’ll be up for this round against Power,” Chris claimed.
“AGAIN?! FOR THE THIRD TIME?! Ughhhh, come on! I just got back, and my ribcage was broken!” Franky complained.
Power taunted him. “I hope you lose this one, puny human!”
“Can it!” Franky huffed.
The wheel has chosen its dish. Franky will be eating a monkey’s brain stuffed inside a severed monkey head, and Power caught a familiar sight of something.
“AAAAW, NOOOOO—”
Franky had passed out from the sight of his meal.
(CONFESSIONAL) THE GOVERNOR:
“We’re doomed.”
“Huh…” Power said.
Apparently, she had to eat the mini version of the Bat Devil. Although it seemed harmless compared to… You know.
“YOU! YOU TRIED TO EAT MEOWY!”
The weird creature looked at Power in confusion.
“GAH!”
Power screamed and summoned her blood hammer.
“Wait. DON’T—”
CRASH!
The spinner was split into two, and a lot of dishes were ruined.
“What?” Power looked at her teammates, slinging her hammer on her shoulder.
Chris was not happy, obviously.
“Alright, that’s it! Just for breaking my beloved wheel, the Wolves win this challenge, and the Bears will have to boot someone out tonight!” Chris announced.
“Power! What was that for?!” Nam-ra said.
“Gex, analysis!” Gojo asked him.
“The Bat Devil tried to eat her pet cat once after failing to fulfill its order, but the cat’s fine!” Gex claimed.
“Oi, oi, that crap doesn’t deserve to live!” Power sneered.
“Waki-waki kunai! We lost the challenge and have to expel someone!” Jan scratched his hair in agony.
“Chris. Reward,” The Governor asked.
“Oh, did I mention that?” Chris replied.
Silence.
“Yeah, don’t think I did, no prize,” Chris shrugged.
The Wolves groaned, but at least they’re happy that they won the immunity.
“Berserker Bears! I’ll see you tonight!” Chris said.
(CONFESSIONAL) RUBY:
“All of this crap was for nothing because he had forgotten the reward…”
Zoro has finally returned to his cabin and met with Jan and Power.
“What did I miss?” Zoro asked. “Just heard that we lost the challenge.”
“Yeah, we’re voting… I dunno, we haven’t planned yet,” Jan pouted.
“I’m off for some training, don’t disturb me,” Zoro immediately forgot the main part of the game and left.
“We’re voting that scary swordsman off?” Jan asked.
“Meh, who cares?” Power shrugged. “He’s the other person who had screwed up the challenge by not showing up.”
Gojo and Gex were alone.
“So… Power or Zoro?” Gex asked.
“Eh, we’re leaning to Power,” Gojo sighed. “Zoro at least has some manners.”
“I’m afraid you would say that,” Gex chuckled.
“Hey, you!”
They froze and turned around to see… Teto?
“Who were you guys voting for?” Teto asked.
“Power,” They replied in unison.
“Yeah, she’s nuts, I admit. But there’s someone else you gotta get rid of!” Teto remarked.
“Uh, who?” Gojo tilted his head.
Teto smirked and began whispering. The men nodded in understanding.
Everyone had gathered at the campfire elimination, and Chris and Mash were standing next to a fire pit. Mash has a plate of cream puffs.
“Welcome, Berserker Bears! Did ya enjoy your day? Guess not because one of you will be riding Merry-Go-Whirl!”
“How nice of him to give us a cream puff instead of a marshmallow,” Gex said.
“Yeah, thank Mash or something. It was going to be marshmallows, but he brought cream puffs instead,” Chris shrugged. “Anyway, your votes have been cast, and I have read them. If you’re safe, you get a puff.”
“The first cream puff of the night goes to… Gojo!”
Gojo caught his and took a bite, then stopped.
“This is a marshmallow-flavored,” Gojo said.
Ignoring Gojo’s complaint. “Nam-ra!”
“Jan!”
“Gex!”
“And Power!”
Power was surprised but caught her prize. It was down between Nabiu and Zoro.
“Figures,” Zoro sighed.
Nabiu tilted her head but kept her smile.
“I have the final cream puff! With a vote of three to two. The final Bear member to be safe is…”
…
…
…
…
…
…
…
…
…
…
…
…
“Zoro! You’re safe. Nabiu, it’s time for you to go home!”
Zoro was caught off guard and obtained his reward. Nabiu looked at her teammates. Some of her teammates gave her a guilty look.
“Your quest is over, buddy. Time to exit your mission!”
Nabiu kinda understood why she had been voted out when Gex eyed her wand.
“Oh,” Nabiu said. “Okay, it was fun while it lasted, goodbye!”
When they reached the Merry-Go-Whirl.
“So, are you ready for the most exciting ride?” Chris grinned.
Nabiu looked at the coaster.
“Um, nah, roller coaster is not my thing,” Nabiu said.
“Maybe a second thought?” Chris said.
“Yeah, I already had my second thought.”
Nabiu used her teleportation power with her wand and disappeared without riding the Merry-Go-Whirl.
“The second time a camper hasn’t gotten a ride on that Merry-Go-Whirl,” Chris’s eye twitched.
He looked at the camera.
“Forget it. Nabiu has been booted from the game, and we’re down to twelve campers remaining! Without Teto stepping in, Zoro or Power would’ve gone home tonight. Again. 12 campers remain. Who will be going home next? Find out on the next episode of Total Drama GAIDEN!”
[END]
CONFESSIONAL VOTES
Nabiu: She used her wand to zap the picture of Power. Muttering something about her throwing the challenge. (POWER)
Gojo: “Well, I wanted to see the magic you could pull, but it’s a shame that we gotta remove you.” (NABIU)
Power: “That man wasn’t helpful.” (ZORO)
Nam-Ra: “Gojo and Gex told me to vote for her, and it was a fair reason.” (NABIU)
Gex: “Teto does have a good point, but I’d rather go for Zoro and… the majority took over the mage.” (NABIU)
Jan: “Waaah! This is very hard!” (ZORO)
Zoro: “I think I’m going for the lizard.” (GEX)
ELIMINATION ORDER
14th - Mr. Muffin - Wilthering Wolves (7-0)
13th - Nabiu - Berserker Bears (3-2-1-1)
REMAINING CAMPERS
Wilthering Wolves: The Governor — Eve Wilkins — Kasane Teto — Jack-O Valentine — Ruby Hoshino — Franky Franklin
Berserker Bears: Satoru Gojo — Choi Nam-Ra — Power — Jan Kandou — Gex the Gecko — Roronoa Zoro
Notes:
Why is Mash, an intern for the Hawaii season, here? Well, I thought his working at two separate Total Dramas at the same time without everyone knowing would be funny since he can just travel island to island with a morning jog.
The short Fruitless adventure has ended for our friendly mage Nabiu. If Teto hadn’t stepped in, she wouldn’t have gone home.
Chapter 6: Ep. 4 - "A BBQ Bacon Burger, a Large Order of Fries, Orange Soda With No Ice, and a Piece of Hot Apple Pie!"
Summary:
Chris got lazy to buy food so he told them to buy one for him.
Chapter Text
“Previously on Total Drama Gaiden!... Food stuff happened, Zoro gets lost, Power and Jan form some weird friendship. They reached the stage and had to eat the dish the wheel had selected. Yes, we stuffed some eldritch creature inside the dish, and Nabiu was out thanks to Teto because of being a potential threat of having a magic wand. Yeah, twelve remains. I’m kinda hungry right now, so I’m dispatching the campers to bring me lunch. Who will be leaving today? Find out on this next episode of… Total. DRAMA! GAIDEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEN!”
[INTRO]
Mash serves everyone cream puffs again. Not everyone, actually. A few of them weren’t in the cafeteria.
“Again? Well, what flavor?” Eve asked.
“Eggs and bacon,” Mash stated stoically.
Nam-ra took a bite, and it ended with the same flavor.
“Blegh… He’s right,” Power stated.
“Cream puffs all day…” The Governor sighed.
“Dude, it has only been, like, two days,” Franky stated.
“And we’re definitely eating this all day until we get out of this,” The Governor retorted.
“I think you’re just a hater,” Franky murmured.
“Okay, campers. It’s time for the challenge because I’m bored.”
Everyone met Chris.
“Your challenge? It’s…” Chris’ stomach growled.
“Never mind the deadly obstacle course. Your next challenge is to buy me a lunch!” Chris proclaimed. “The first team to bring me food wins immunity!”
“Dude, the cafeteria is right there,” Gojo pointed out.
“I know, man. But I’m craving for something better,” Chris shrugged.
“Like what? Bear?” Power assumed.
“Nah, junk food does wonders!” Chris hummed. “Just bring me one and you will be safe!”
“Food? Like where?” Franky asked.
“Dude, have you NOT seen any fast food around the island?” Chris retorted.
All of them shook their heads.
“Okay, it seems like none of you have realized, but… there’s a small town on the further side of the island! You may borrow our ‘jeeps’ to bring you there and buy it,” Chris announced.
The two jeeps themselves were old and rusty as hell, and even one of them was on the brink of explosion.
“Why bother asking us to buy you food?” Eve asked. “Don’t you have your chef?”
“He’s off for some training again, dude!” Chris grunted. “If there’s no objection, then go!”
“What about money—”
“I SAID GO!”
All of them immediately hopped into their jeep. The Governor stopped Franky from joining them.
“Uh, what?” Franky was confused.
“We’re finding a better car, let’s go,” The Governor claimed.
“Yeah, you’re right. This one sucks!” Franky huffed.
Two teams took off in their jeep.
Silence.
“Wait. Where did the Governor and Franky go?” Ruby asked.
“We can probably do it without them,” Teto sighed.
“Yeah, you’re right,” Jack shrugged.
(CONFESSIONAL) EVE:
“Why do we just abandon our teammates? Unless those guys went somewhere else, probably finding a better jeep…”
“So, who’s driving?” Gojo asked.
“You!” Power suggested.
“He’s blind,” Nam-ra pointed out.
“Okay, he can see you standing on the seat, right there,” Power retorted.
“Yup! I can see you there, hello!” Gojo waved.
“I don’t trust him!” Power yelled. “Power should drive instead!”
“Bullcrap, bro. I doubt you would have a license!” Gex snickered.
Power showed off her surprisingly legit driver's license, or it was probably forged.
“Niki-niki, she’s driving!” Jan exclaimed. “We’re ready for some fun!”
“Driving recklessly isn’t fun,” Nam-ra deadpanned.
“Alright, SHOO! Get your freakin’ seat!” Power ordered.
Power took the driver’s seat, and Jan took the passenger seat.
Well, the backseat has Zoro napping on it, so nobody else has anywhere to sit.
“Do we toss him out or something?” Gex suggested.
“No way, dude, he’s heavy as shit,” Gojo grumbled.
“And I thought that moron would disappear again,” Power shrugged. “I guess not.”
“Even with him gone, I think that’s a free vote,” Gex smirked.
“We’re not doing that,” Nam-ra sighed.
“Man, you’re such a party pooper,” Gex scoffed. “What’s next? Gonna start a zombie apocalypse?”
The student remained silent, giving him an unpleasant glare. The jeep moved on as they struggled to move Zoro’s body to provide them with some space.
(CONFESSIONAL) ZORO:
“Geez, what’s with those people not allowing me to take a nap peacefully?”
The male Wolves were off to find a better jeep, deep in the woods.
“Are you SURE you’re going to find one of the jeeps here?” Franky shivered. “I’m not a fan of the woods! I could feel the swordsman dude coming in!”
“He’s not.”
“He will.”
The Governor opened the bush, revealing a functional and clean jeep.
“See what I said? We definitely found one here,” The Governor hissed.
“I’m starting to guess that you’ve set this car from earlier days,” Franky accused.
The two of them got in their car and drove off to the small town.
The Bears were the first team to reach the small town. Somehow. Well, it was that small with a population of less than a thousand people.
“What? That’s it? It’s so freakin’ smaller than my thirst toward Kobe—urf—erm, uh, NOTHING!” Power cracked her voice.
“Kobe Bryant?” Gex assumed.
“WRONG!”
“Ooooh, I know which one!” Gex grinned. “It’s—”
Power accelerated so suddenly, causing Gex to fall off because he wasn’t wearing a seatbelt.
“That ain’t cool, yo!” Gex snarked.
“Wait. Where are we supposed to go anyway?” Zoro asked. “We have to buy that old man’s snack, right?”
“Good question… I think we should just find anything that sells food,” Gojo shrugged. “It can’t be that hard.”
“Oh, no, it’s a traffic,” Nam-ra said.
“Waaaah, this is irritating!” Jan grumbled. “Jan hates getting stalled.”
“Damn, right! I know the plan!” Power smirked.
“No, YOU WILL NOT COMMIT VEHICULAR MANSLAUGHTER—”
She just did some Initial D-esque shit and made it past the traffic without casualties.
Later, the Wolves arrived at the town. It was their turn to be stuck in the traffic now.
“Yay. Traffic jam,” Eve said in a disgruntled voice.
Meanwhile, the male Wolves used an alternate path to skip the traffic jam. Franky was in charge of driving as the Governor was sitting in the passenger seat.
“This vibe is dull, let’s put up some music,” The Governor screwed around with the radio.
🎵 A Thousand Miles - Vanessa Carlton is now playing 🎵
“Huh… this is…?” Franky gasped.
The Governor looked at him.
“YO, I LOVE THIS SONG! HOW DID YOU KNOW IT WAS MY FAVORITE?!” Franky's eyes sparkled.
“Huh…” The Governor was caught off guard.
“Hey, it’s good! Don’t you dare try anything funny. This calms me down!” Franky grinned.
“Sure,” The Governor replied.
At first, everything was calm from the piano sounds, and then the lyrics came.
Makin’ my way downtown.
Walkin’ fast.
The Governor stared at Franky in disbelief.
Faces pass.
And I’m homebound.
He bobbed his head left and right as he was singing the song, and faced his ally with a stupid ass smile.
Du-du-du-du-du-du-duh.
And I need you.
Du-du-du-du-du-du-duh.
And I miss you.
The Governor looked at Franky in terror.
Du-du-du-du-du-du-duh.
And now I wonder~
The Governor had never tried to escape the car so badly that he forgot to unlock the door while he was attempting to leave, and tried to force the door open.
Back to the Wolves ladies. Jack has a plan.
“Hey, I can use my pumpkin to float and scout the city, how’s that sound?” Jack asked.
“That’s… helpful,” Ruby said, followed by a nod from Teto.
“Yeah, tell us if you find anything useful, or if you spot those slacker guys,” Teto hummed.
“Sure.”
Jack left the jeep, and her companion grew larger for her to sit. They started to float.
To the Bears! Everyone was either impressed, horrified, or confused about Power’s stunt earlier.
“What the hell was that?” Nam-ra spoke up.
“Power things!” Power showed off.
He noticed an empty ramp.
“What about the ramp?” Gojo asked. “Are we going to fly?”
“Oooh, nice one—”
“No. JUST NO—DON’T GIVE HER IDEAS—”
Power did it anyway and sent the jeep flying.
“AHHHHHHHHHHH!”
CRASH!
The Bears landed near the McDonald's.
“SO COOL!” Jan praised the devil.
“Please, no more,” Nam-ra begged.
“Damn, I guess that’s our destination,” Gex said.
“OH, MCDONALD’S!” Gojo drooled. “CAN WE EAT THERE?!”
“You’re a grown ass man,” Zoro retorted.
“Please, you never tried one,” Gojo smirked back. “I can tell.”
“Well, I suppose it won’t be horrible to eat those for the first time,” Zoro shrugged.
They reached the radio.
“Blablabla, welcome to McDonald’s, how may I take your order?” A bored voice was heard.
Gojo raised his brow but kept it quiet as his teammates began ordering.
“So, what are we ordering for Chris?” Nam-ra asked.
“Let’s give him a burger and call it a day; he would just McLovin’ it,” Gex said.
“Just order a kids’ pack. Sounds cheap,” Zoro yawned.
“Too old to order off the kids' menu!” Power yelled. “Besides, all of us are here! We wouldn’t want to miss our chance to eat shit!”
“As much as I like his cream puffs, I wanted to eat the other stuff,” Gex admitted.
“Yeah, it couldn’t hurt to eat anything else than whatever that pervy cook brought,” Zoro shrugged.
“Mash? Are you saying he’s a—”
“Different one.”
(CONFESSIONAL) ZORO:
“Yeah, no offense, buddy. I wasn’t talking about you, Mash.”
“Can we get to ordering already?” Power huffed. “My ass is getting impatient!”
“Oh, oh, wait! Jan needed that pork cutlet!”
“THEY DON’T SELL PORK CUTLET AT MCDONALD’S!”
“Wait, I gotta have that McFlurry!”
“NO! GIMME SOME FRIES! Uh, wait, no, strawberry milkshake!”
They just ordered the most random stuff ever after a few minutes of arguing and went to the pick-up counter, and the employee revealed herself to hand the food.
“Hey, here’s your—”
The bored employee froze and turned pale when she noticed a familiar blindfolded man.
“HEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEY, UTAHIME! WHAT’S GOOD?” Gojo shouted.
“WHY IS IT ALWAYS YOU?!” Utahime yelled back, terrified.
“You know her?” Zoro raised his brow.
“Of course, we’re acquaintances after all!” Gojo replied.
“NO! Why do you keep appearing where I work?!” Utahime complained. “You’re a walking curse at this point!”
“Does she have that much beef against you?” Nam-ra asked.
“Eh, yeah, long story, hehe,” Gojo shrugged.
“Look. We’re here for the pick-up, let us take the food, and we can leave,” Power sneered.
“You haven’t paid me! It’s $12.78!” Utahime yelled.
“Whoa, you guys remembered my regular Burger King order—”
“This is McDonald’s,” Nam-ra corrected.
“Shut up.”
“Well? Anyone got a few bucks?” Gex asked.
Nobody did.
“What do you mean none of us had the money in the first place?!” Zoro yelled.
“Chris never gave us a single cent. How are we supposed to buy his lunch?” Jan grumbled.
“Erm, can we have a discount?” Gojo begged.
Utahime placed something inside the bag before muttering back. “If it means NOT to see or hear your obnoxious voice again, then I’m doing it for free!”
“Oh-ho, we’re taking that!” Gex grinned.
“What about your job—”
“I DON’T CARE! GET GOJO THE FUCK OUTTA WAY FROM ME!” Utahime begged.
“Okay.”
Power swiped the bag and drove off without having to pay.
(CONFESSIONAL) GOJO:
“Man, I was lookin’ forward to find another excuse to get her ass fired, so we can hang out again.”
Franky was still jamming to the music, and The Governor just found a way to escape hell.
(CONFESSIONAL) GOVERNOR:
“Figured I could stay in this booth, and I won’t be in the car with Franky for a while. I’ll have to come up with anything relating to the game to keep me occupied in this room.”
“Shit… I’m back here,” The Governor said now that his confessional time ended.
Franky stopped his car.
“What?”
He was staring at the pink princess with a few toads hurdling around her as if they were joining or protecting her.
“Eyes on the road,” The Governor said.
“Right! Right! Sorry!” Franky eyed the road again.
“You'd better be, or else you will end up driving us off the cliff,” The Governor said.
“There’s no cliff nearby!” Franky retorted. “Oh, wait, the song’s over… lemme just…”
(CONFESSIONAL) THE GOVERNOR:
“Alright, I’m back in here.”
The female Wolves finally left the traffic jam.
“Man, we’re so far behind,” Teto grumbled. “I bet those Beardos have their food already.”
“See! This is why I hate traffic jams! Always get your day screwed up!” Ruby said.
“Where’s Jack anyway? She’s gone for quite a while,” Eve asked.
“I’m baaaaack!”
Jack floated down and shrunk her iron. “The nearby food joint is two blocks away. We could get there and buy the grubs for Chris.”
“What about us?” Teto hummed. “I want to buy as well.”
“Do you have the money?” Jack deadpanned. “I’m sure none of us has it.”
“That’s WHAT I’m trying to bring up earlier!” Teto sighed. “Chris just cut us off and barked our asses off into working.”
“Daaaaamn, we really got here for nothing,” Ruby complained. “Any other way than dine and dash?”
“We’re not landing in jail,” Eve deadpanned.
“Blow up the whole joint so there won’t be any witnesses that we stole the stuff,” Jack suggested.
“HEY!”
“I was joking!” Jack pouted. “Plus, that’s just gonna bring a lot of unwanted attention.”
Eve noticed it was the perfect time to use her power, as none of her teammates were looking at her. She spawned a few bucks with her power.
“Guys, I have the money,” Eve smirked.
“YES! Ok, where’s the joint?” Teto asked.
Jack led the girls to find their food joint. Meanwhile, the male Wolves were still on the road.
“Say, Frank… How long have we been driving in circles?” The Governor asked.
“Probably more than an hour, why?” Franky replied with a brow.
“We were supposed to find a food joint and buy them for Chris,” The Governor reminded.
“I know, man… It’s just really hard to spot one,” Franky grumbled.
“Really? I’ve seen you staring at the ladies in the road most of the time,” He shot back.
“Whaaaaaaaaaa—no, man…” Franky rubbed his head. “I’m just reading the signs!”
(CONFESSIONAL) FRANKY:
“Seriously, man! It’s not that obvious that I’m not staring at the ladies!”
He saw one outside the booth.
“But!”
“Dammit, we’re not winning this, and our shot at winning the season will turn to dust,” The Governor sighed.
“Well, uh, what if we just steal one?” Franky said.
“Your point?”
“Look, man. I haven’t found any food joint, and none of us has money to purchase stuff,” Franky stated.
“What, like, you wanted us to steal a child’s lunch like that?” The Governor said.
“NO! I’m not hurting the damn child! What about the other team?” Franky hummed. “Snatch ‘em and we’ll zip out!”
“I’m not sure if your plan will work,” The Governor sighed.
Later, the girls reached the food joint named Burger Tank.
“Hey, this is the Burger Tank. Welcome. How may I take your order?” The cashier said through the speaker.
“Okay, we’ll just order a burger and get out—”
“Hey, can you recommend the best menu?” Ruby asked.
“A BBQ bacon burger, a large order of fries, an orange soda with no ice, and a piece of hot apple pie.”
“Oooh~ Sounds lovely, let’s take ‘em!” Jack barked.
“I-yeah, fine,” Eve sighed. “I can afford them at least.”
The girls bought their meal and drove back to Chris.
“So, uh, anybody know the way to return to the fake Wawanakwa camp?” Ruby asked.
“I can do it,” Jack floated up again with her pumpkin.
“Cool. Don’t bring us to another traffic,” Teto begged.
“Man, I’m kinda hungry,” Ruby was about to open the bag.
Eve swiped it in pure panic. “NO! We’re giving this to Chris. I’m sorry…”
The idol groaned.
“We can just give Chris one stuff and we’ll eat the rest,” Eve hummed.
“Fine—I can handle that!”
“I don’t think this is the right way,” Zoro muttered.
“Man, how can you tell? Your direction sucks,” Gex snickered.
“Dumbass, there’s a whole construction site in front of us,” Zoro barked.
“It’s one way, we can’t drive back,” Gojo pointed out.
“Well, what then?” Power huffed.
“Oh, are you in trouble?” A suspicious construction worker appeared.
“Yeah, we need to get across. We’re stuck,” Zoro sighed.
“Don’t worry, man. I can help you with that!” The worker grinned.
He just did that.
“Woo, job’s well done, carry on, ladies and gents!” The worker’s stomach growled after he finished.
“Uhm, I don’t have a tip to afford a meal right now,” The worker sighed. “It would be nice to get something for once after working nonstop.”
“Damn, that’s awkward,” Gex murmured.
Jan grabbed the bag and handed it to the construction worker.
“Can’t let the hardworking man starve to death!” Jan laughed.
“Oh, great, thanks, man!”
The jeep drove off.
“Wait a second.” All of them stopped.
The construction worker ran toward his ‘break zone’ and met The Governor.
“I’m not even sure how that stupid plan worked in the first place,” The Governor said.
“You tell me, man.” Franky grinned.
Franky returned to the jeep and drove off while blasting the most corny song, cringing at his thought that he had to teleport into the confessional booth again. The Bears just witnessed the fake worker and the Governor driving off with their food.
“THAT OLD HAG!” Zoro yelled.
“HEY, GIVE US OUR FOOD BACK YOU PUNY THIEF!” Power roared.
“JAN, you absolute dumbass!” Gex cried. “You are really wild for this!”
“Waaaa, zuru-zuru!!!” Jan rubbed his hair aggressively.
(CONFESSIONAL) POWER:
“Watch your back, dumbass! Power is coming to bite you back!”
She saw the Governor sitting beside her.
“EW, WHAT THE HECK ARE YOU DOING HERE, YOU PUNY PIRATE?!” Power screamed.
“I have my personal reason to be here,” The Governor stated.
“I CALL BULL! YOU’RE A PERV!”
“You are mistaken.”
“LIAR!”
“Welp, now I’m back in the car.” The Governor sighed.
“What?” Franky was confused.
BEEP, BEEP!
“Power, you’re gonna run over someone if you keep driving recklessly,” Gojo mouthed.
“Please, nobody’s gonna witness because the street is empty as fuck!”
“We can be the witnesses, you know,” Nam-ra stated.
“Shut up, teacher’s pet!” Power barked. “OH, SHOOT—”
She just ran over a clueless pedestrian.
“Erm, typo!” Power defended herself.
“He’s dead,” Zoro said.
“Nah, he ain’t,” Power huffed. “He will live!”
“Quick! You’re losing the Wolves!” Gex interrupted.
The Wolves turned a corner in an attempt to lose their pursuers.
“Why didn’t we just go to the narrow street to make it harder for them to catch us?” Franky asked.
“You should be the one doing that, you’re driving,” The Governor retorted.
“Oooh, right!”
He swerved right to enter the narrow alley.
“Damn, those cheaters!” Power grumbled.
“Let’s cut them off—”
Power ignored their plea and drove straight into the alley. Their jeep was a bit large, so it didn’t go through.
CRASH!
“We’re either voting for Jan for handing out the food or Power for vehicular manslaughter,” Zoro announced.
“SHUT UP! Power is DOING HER BEST!”
She turned the jeep into reverse mode.
“I think we lost ‘em,” Franky looked through the rear view.
“That’s good. What about the food?”
“Oh, yeah, lunch time—”
“We’re handing them to Chris,” The Governor stopped him.
“Dammit,” Franky sighed.
“The sun’s starting to set, I think Chris won’t be happy that we took forever,” The Governor said.
“And the girls, too, because you separated us,” Franky muttered. “We’re toasted if we lose.”
“That’s why we’re going to win,” The Governor said.
Franky was distracted when he stared at someone.
“Ooh, is that—she’s—”
The Governor snapped out of his thought to notice his driver wasn’t looking at the road, but at a random princess.
“Franky, FRANKY—”
He was distracted by a certain pink princess and swerved left to crash into a building.
CRASH!
Puff.
The Governor glared at his personal driver. His driver glanced at him for the last time.
“Listen, man, I might get in trouble for this… but Princess Peach is cute,” Franky weakly muttered before passing out.
The Governor could only groan before passing out. Power appeared and ripped the door open to retrieve their bag.
“LET’S GO, DUMBASSES!” Power yells.
(CONFESSIONAL) FRANKY:
“Dude, I’m definitely screwed for being attracted to a princess. I’m not quite sure why she was there in the first place.”
Jack rejoined the jeep and sat on the passenger seat.
“We’re out of the town, we can just follow the same path where we came from,” Jack suggested.
“Right,” Eve hummed. “How’s the food—”
Crunch.
Jack and Eve turned around to see Ruby taking a bite of a French fry.
“Uh, do you guys want one?” Ruby offered.
“YOU ATE THE FOOD?!” Eve shrieked.
“No, no, we just left the burger,” Teto shrugged as she chugged her orange soda.
“You too?! Save me for some!” Jack pouted.
“NO!” Eve intervened.
Eve snatched the bag and looked inside. Only the barbecue bacon burger survived.
“For god’s sake, why couldn’t you just wait it out…” Eve sighed.
“I was thirsty and needed a drink, but Ruby suggested otherwise,” Teto shrugged.
“Hey! Don’t blame me!” Ruby pouted. “A burger is still a burger. His belly can be stuffed with that thing.”
“You’re not eating shit again,” Eve remarked. “You almost cost us the challenge.”
“What about Franky and Governor? They left us,” Ruby claimed. “They left us and haven’t seen them ever since.”
“I’m sure they’re working on their own. I assume they already got their food,” Jack shrugged.
“I’m not really sure if they were contributing, but we still have a burger to deliver,” Eve hummed.
The Bears are just vibing in their jeep as Gex blasts the music video. They were all screaming the lyrics while Nam-ra had to cover her ears, and Zoro couldn’t nap.
“Please, don’t be so loud—ah!” Nam-ra cried painfully.
Clearly, they didn’t heed her plea.
“Are you not into loud noise?” Zoro said.
“Yes, I’m really sensitive—”
“WOOOOOOOO! We’re finally here!” Gojo celebrated.
Everyone got out of their jeep and saw that Chris was sitting at the table with his napkin on. Nam-ra was tired out and remained in the jeep after the loud music was stopped.
“Geez, campers! It’s almost dawn! I’m pretty starving as heck, dude!” Chris grumbled. “I hope one of you at least got something for me!”
“Yeah, yeah,” Power scoffed.
Power placed a burger with extra fried chicken left by Utahime on a table for Chris’ lunch. Well, not lunch anymore.
“Alright, looks good, campers! Let’s dine in!” Chris licked his lips.
A few seconds later. Chris was brought into the medical tent after the chicken fry exploded right in his face. Mash was standing near the tent.
“Mfmfmmfmfmfmffffmmmmfmfmfmfm!” Chris’ voice was muffled.
“What is he saying?” Gojo asked.
“Man, whoever bought me that burger should be up for elimination tonight…” Mash translated Chris’ message.
All of them looked at Power.
“What? It wasn’t me!” Power shouted.
She was looking around to blame someone else, and she found the Wolves, minus the guys, arriving at the area.
“THEY DID IIIIIIIIIIT!” Power yelled and wrongly accused the Wolves.
“Huh—we just got here—” Eve asked.
Chris eyed the Wolves, looking unconvinced. Then all of the Bears just backed up Power’s lie by nodding their head for confirmation.
“Alright, Wolves. You’re sending someone home at tonight’s elimination!” Chris grumbled as he had just bought her lie and wanted this to end.
All of the Wolves left their jaw hanging open as Chris bought her lie.
“WHY?!” Teto whined. “That was pretty bullshit! We got your food!”
Chris couldn’t care less and wanted his handsome face fixed immediately.
“You didn’t even bother defending yourself, your loss, bozo!” Power taunted with her tongue out.
“That’s right! Jan’s winning for another day!” Jan celebrated. “Jan’s ready for another wild reward!”
“Mfmfmfmfmfmfmfmffmfmfmmmf,” Chris mumbled.
“No reward,” Mash translated. “I’m broken as hell. Can’t show up without my handsome face for now… That’s what he said.”
Suddenly, all of the Bears were disappointed.
“I guess you can say this truly was a BBQ Bacon Burger, a Large Order of Fries, Orange Soda With No Ice, and a Piece of Hot Apple Pie!" Gex snickered.
Silence.
“Let’s mail this guy to the Sahara Desert,” Zoro ordered.
“You suck, dude. Where’s ya damn sense of humor? Lost again?”
It was then Zoro punched the gecko, sending him crashing through a lot of trees, creating a Gex-shaped hole with each blow.
“So, who are we voting for?” Franky asked the girls.
They just stared at him.
“Ok, to be frank, we split off and managed to steal the Bears’ snacks,” Franky defended himself.
“Then you crashed our jeep into the building because you were staring at the princess.” The Governor stepped inside.
“Oh, come on, man! She was pretty!” Franky pouted.
“We’re voting the incel?” Teto tilted her head.
“Probably,” Ruby followed by. “Anything to keep me safe.”
Later, Franky and the Governor were stuck in thought until Jack came in.
“Are you in trouble, boys?” Jack asked.
They looked at the red-haired lady.
“Yes,” Franky nodded.
“Well, are you two perhaps… in an alliance?” Jack asked.
“What makes you think of that?” The Governor grew suspicious.
“Assuming you two were separated from us to work together, it’s that easy to think you are an alliance,” Jack shrugged.
“Are you deciding to join us or what?” Franky said.
“Oh, so you did ally!” Jack clapped cheerfully.
“Franky—no,” the Governor sighed while facepalming at his ally, revealing their alliance.
“Can I join, too?”
Suddenly, they looked up with a weird look.
“Sure! Sure! Anything to have a pretty lady working with us!” Franky shook her hands.
(CONFESSIONAL) THE GOVERNOR:
“I’m not really a fan of having an uninvited guest, but it will keep us from being eliminated tonight if we survive the tie. That is.”
Everyone waited in their seats at the campfire ceremony. Chris wasn’t seen, obviously.
“Wait. Who’s handling the elimination part?” The Governor asked.
“I do.”
It was Mash chewing his cream puff.
“I have… uh… five marshmallows,” Mash stated. “One of you will be leaving if I remember correctly. I’ve tallied the votes, and let’s see… There are three votes against Ruby, two against Eve, and one against the Governor…”
Silence. Everyone just looked at Ruby.
“What… WHAT?!” Ruby yelled.
“Dude, you’re supposed to hand the safe people with your ‘marshmallow’ one by one!” Franky reminded him.
“Chris does that?” Mash asked again.
“You were right there in the last elimination with Chris,” Eve sighed.
“Sorry. I was busy with… other work,” Mash bowed to apologize. “I’ll just do it…”
“The first marshmallow goes to… Jack!”
“Teto!”
“Eve.”
“And Governor!”
It was down between Franky and Ruby.
“Uh, well, we already knew who’s going tonight, and Franky gets his final marshmallow,” Mash claimed.
“Thanks,” Franky replied.
“Gosh, I was supposed to have fun, but I’m out tonight,” Ruby pouted.
“Maybe if you didn’t touch the food,” Eve shrugged.
“Okay, follow… me… to your elimination zone, Ruby,” Mash commanded.
“Dang, I was really hoping I could collaborate with Teto, but not anymore,” Ruby hung her head down.
Mash and Ruby were standing near the Merry-Go-Whirl.
“Hmm, Chris told me to send the eliminated camper flying,” Mash thought as he looked at the coaster. “Is it this one?”
Ruby immediately shook her head.
“Okay, I found an alternative way.”
“Oh, thank god—”
He grabbed Ruby.
“Eh?”
“Heave… ho!”
“WAIT—”
He threw Ruby like a javelin at the speed of light until she disappeared from his view.
“Uh, what else?” Mash was stuck again. “Oh, right.”
“Um… I didn’t know what happened during the challenge, but Ruby… was expelled, so we’re down to… eleven campers.” He froze. “What’s next after this? Oh. Who’s getting eliminated next? Find out on the next episode of Total. Drama… Guy… Guy then? That’s a pretty odd name.”

Chapter Text
“Last time… On… Total Drama… Guy then… I cooked breakfast for everyone, and they were not happy that it was a cream puff. Then Chris got blown up, and I have to temporarily replace him… I sent Ruby flying after she was eliminated. Eleven campers left. Who will be leaving today? Find out right now…”
“I dunno if I’m doing the recap that well,” Mash is now in a nervous breakdown.
[INTRO]
The main area was quiet.
“Anybody gonna check up on Chris?” Jack asked them.
All of them shook their heads.
“Fair enough.”
“Where’s Mash? I thought he would be around,” Nam-ra asked.
“Busy with Chris,” Jack replied.
“Don’t worry. We got you guys covered,” Eve walked in with a basket of fruits.
“Waaaaa! Smells nice!” Jan had already scooted closer to the basket.
“You want one?” She offered an apple to the Governor. He accepted it with a nod.
“Thanks.”
“I really wonder where you found those from,” Nam-ra asked.
“The town?” Eve was stunned by such a question.
“Ah, yeah, make sense,” Franky noted.
Mash finally arrived. “Sorry, I’m late.”
“Where have you been?” Jack asked.
“Hawaii.”
“For what? Vacation?” Teto assumed.
“Yeah, but turns out I missed the ride, so I came back here,” Mash sighed as he hung his head.
“Ride? Did we miss a huge cruise or something?” The Governor thought.
“I thought you were planning the next challenge!” Teto pouted. “How the hell did you end up in Hawaii?”
“What challenge?” Mash tilted his head, entirely forgetting the latter’s question.
“Uh, how do I host the game?” Mash asked Chris.
Chris, who was still crippled, said: “Mmffmmmhmfmmfffmfmmmffffmmfmppfmhhmfm!”
“The book?”
“Mppmhmmhmmpphh!”
“Okay, I found the book…” Mash brought a book named ‘Hosting Total Drama for Dummies.’
The camera pans to Mash being zoned out from eating too much information from his totally helpful book lesson.
“I think I got it,” Mash nodded after a lot of thinking.
(CONFESSIONAL) EVE:
“He won’t.”
(CONFESSIONAL) GEX:
“I agree with this person above my chat box.”
“Alright. Lemme just come up with the… challenge…” Mash stated quietly. “You guys… do your thing before I come up with something…”
“MAAAAAAAAAAAAAASH!”
A red-haired mage figure walked into the scene after he shouted, desperately looking for his buddy.
“Who are you—Oh, Dot. Hey,” Mash waved awkwardly. “What’s going on?”
Suddenly, he’s having a meltdown.
“Uhhh, Dot? W-What’s going on?” Mash was stammering as he watched his friend having a meltdown. “Do you guys know what’s going on?”
“No? We just met him,” Gojo shrugged.
“I’m not best at this type of stuff, uh,” Mash crouched down to his crying friend. “Dot…?”
“S-Sh-Sh-She…”
“She… what? Did Lemon reject you again?” Mash replied.
“NO!”
“W-Wait, how did you guys even get here?” Mash asked again.
“We were on a trip, remember?! You suddenly bailed because you forgot about your part-time job!” Dot cried.
“Okay, where are the others?”
“They turned down the offer, and only the two of us are here,” Dot sighed.
“Are you gonna tell us why you were crying?” Franky tilted his head.
“I GOT REJECTED BY PRINCESS PEACH!”
(CONFESSIONAL) FRANKY:
“Damn, we got rejected by the same girl. At least we have something common!”
“Buddy, Princess Peach already has Mario,” Gojo snorted. “No wonder she dumped you.”
“Mash, you gotta help me, I’m sad and full of despair!”
“Wow, this guy’s pathetic,” The Governor huffed.
“I’m not your therapy, sorry, dude,” Mash was panicking.
“Aw, come on! At least spend some time with your broooo!”
“Yeah, why won’t you?” Jack asked.
“Damn, gay people,” Power sneered.
“Shut up.”
“Look… uh… Dot’s having a bad day, and… I have no idea how to cheer him up,” Mash stated. “I think you guys can help him…”
“So the challenge was to make him happy?” Gojo asked.
“Something like that… Yeah,” Mash nodded.
“Cool! Leave it to us!” Gojo grinned and approached the crying Dot.
He snatched the mage and threw him in the jeep. “LET’S GO!”
The Bears joined, and they drove away, leaving the Wolves.
“Hey, that bitch left us!” Teto snarled. “We gotta catch up with them!”
“We’re heading back to the town? Man, that part sucked,” Franky hummed.
“Yeah, lighten it up, buddy,” Jack appeared behind the Governor and Franky, slinging her arms behind their shoulders. “We can work together as a team.”
“I guess so,” Franky shrugged.
Teto and Eve looked at them weirdly.
“Since when did you get close with those guys?” Teto asked.
“Yesterday. Just talked with them and we formed an—”
Franky immediately shut her mouth.
“Oh. All three of you are in the alliance. Got it,” Eve deadpanned.
(CONFESSIONAL) THE GOVERNOR:
“That’s literally one way to get our alliance exposed. Siiiiigh.”
(CONFESSIONAL) EVE:
“Welp, I don’t need to investigate anymore.”
The Bears brought Dot to the local amusement park.
“How is this going to help?” Dot asked.
“We’re at the local amusement park! Packed with the entertainment industry, food court, weird ass clowns, scary rides, and STOP FUCKING POINTING THAT GUN UP YOUR CHIN!” Power screamed.
Gex swiped the gun from Dot’s grip. “Where the hell did you get this from?”
“I dunno? Something called Depression gave it to me,” Dot muttered gloomily.
“ALRIGHT, ALRIGHT! No more suicide! Let Gojo, the tour guide, guide you to happiness!” Gojo smirked as he tapped his cap.
“Where did you get the hat from?” Zoro asked.
“Don’t ask.” Gojo shut the swordsman. “Anyway, in we go! To the first location!”
“Can I stay behind?” Nam-ra muttered, causing everyone to turn around.
“Why? Where’s the fun?!” Jan gawked.
“I’m not… into loud noises,” Nam-ra sighed.
“Again? What happened?” Zoro asked.
“It’s… a long story,” She replied.
“Well, too bad for her! Let’s have fun without that creep!” Power mouthed and entered.
“Creep? Really?” Zoro snarked.
“And you moss-haired man better not get lost in the park!” Power shouted at him.
(CONFESSIONAL) ZORO:
“There’s no way I’m getting lost in this park. I just need a map. And I don’t take that moss-hair kindly.”
Some minutes later. The Wolves finally arrived in the familiar town again.
“I hope none of you went outside to order a junk meal,” The Governor barked.
“We’re not doing that,” Eve replied. “After what happened with Ruby.”
“Ruby ain’t here anymore, it’s not gonna end up with the same result,” Franky murmured.
“Where do we find Dot, though?” Teto asked. “The Bears already took them.”
“Well, that’s gonna suck,” Jack muttered. “I guess, I’m gonna float again, huh?”
“Maybe you can gain info from the locals about the red-haired man,” The Governor told Franky.
“Aye, aye, sir!” Franky saluted and left. The Governor followed him.
Teto tugged Eve’s sleeve. “Heeeey, what are we gonna do?”
“Do what?”
“What the heck are we going to do if we lose? Those three are in the alliance, meaning we’re outnumbered,” Teto whispered. “Unless we found a way to sabotage the votes.”
“Sabotaging the votes… very classic,” Eve muttered.
“I mean, Mash’s not gonna notice it since he’s a newbie,” Teto shrugged. “We can definitely do that.”
“Those guys probably had the same idea,” Eve said.
“Drats, I guess we really need to win this one,” Teto muttered.
The girls joined the Governor.
“We’re at the first destination of the park adventure!” Gojo grinned. “I’ll be taking that gun first.”
He swiped and tossed it into the trash can.
“Anyway, this one will bring you joy!”
“Dude, it’s a carousel,” Gex deadpanned. “How’s that gonna make a grown man happy?”
“Bruh, it worked for me for a while,” Gojo hummed.
“I’m not gonna—”
“Come on! The line’s empty like his brain cells,” Power grunted. “Just ride one of those donkeys.”
“I thought that’s a reindeer?” Jan rubbed his hair.
“No, that’s an unicorn,” Gojo facepalmed. “Get on!”
All of them got on. Time skip. The ride ended, and Dot wasn’t happy at all.
“Dammit, I could’ve sworn that worked,” Gojo frowned. “HOWEVER! I have another better idea!”
He just pulled Dot, suggesting that everyone follow him. Jan and Power stopped in their spot.
“Wah? Jan thinks someone was missing,” Jan looked behind.
“Zoro’s gone again? Whatever, we can vote him out anyway, boohoo!” Power said.
“Zoro? What are you doing here?” Nam-ra tilted her head.
“Well, I can’t abandon our teammate,” Zoro shrugged. “Got lost on the way, but I’m here now.”
“I told you I can’t join… I’m sensitive to hearing loud noise,” Nam-ra shook her head.
“Yeah, I actually came here to give you this.”
Zoro handed an ear muff to the student. “Oh, uh, thanks? I wasn’t expecting that.”
“Hey… How’s the challenge?” Nam-ra asked.
“How would I know? Haven’t seen my team for a while,” Zoro rubbed his head. “But I gotta guess they’re still doing their job. You’re coming to help now.”
“Alright. Just don’t run anywhere,” Nam-ra pleaded.
“Pfft, why would I ever get lost?” Zoro snarled. “I’m being careful with directions.”
(CONFESSIONAL) ZORO:
He got lost in the mirror maze, mistaking it for the confessional booth. “Shit.”
“Well, we’ve looked everywhere and made no progress,” The Governor told Franky.
“Sheesh, man. I’m trying to help,” Franky murmured. “The street is weirdly empty for some reason, dude.”
He noticed a random woman.
“Never mind, who’s gonna ask her?” Franky asked, but his ally didn’t reply. “Welp, alright.”
He took a deep breath.
“Hey, miss! I need to ask you something!” Franky approached the woman.
She pepper-sprayed the informant, blinding and burning him temporarily.
“AAAAAH!” Franky yelled.
(CONFESSIONAL) FRANKY:
“Seriously, what the hell is wrong with this town?!”
“Fuck—” The Governor gasped. “What the hell happened?”
“Hey, guys, I found—whoa, what happened?” Jack dropped from above.
“That random girl just sprayed on me!” Franky said, still rubbing his eyes. “I was trying to ask her something!”
“To be honest, it’s probably your look that caused the woman to spray you,” The Governor admitted.
“Buddy, a handsome face like this couldn’t scare shit,” Franky muttered.
A random voice was heard nearby. “Is that the afro-haired man who tried to seduce the woman yesterday?!”
Another voice claimed. “Yeah, that guy’s a creep, good on her for spraying him.”
“...You snuck here last night?” The Governor deadpanned. “To woo the girls?”
“Maaaaaaaaaaaaybe… or maybe not. It doesn’t matter! It ended horribly,” Franky fidgeted nervously. “Uh, OH, Jack! You’re here! Tell us what you find!”
“We found our man. He’s at the amusement park,” Jack claimed. “Bring in Teto and Eve, too! They gotta know.”
“We’re here,” Teto joined just now.
“Where the hell have you two been?” The Governor asked.
“She kept pulling me to the nearest bread store. I think she just has a thing for a breadstick,” Eve sighed. “At least it’s over now, and Teto got her stick.”
“Damn, you really ditched the challenge for bread?” The Governor chuckled. “You just gave us an easier time to decide the next boot order.”
“Hey, shut up!” Teto pouted. “You’re literally walking as a three-member alliance.”
“Is this the same park you mentioned?” Eve pointed at the nearest park.
“Yup, so far the guys hadn’t made our subject smile yet,” Jack smirked. “Snatch him up, and we'll figure out our way to make him happy!”
“I dunno, man. This sounds like kidnapping,” Eve stated.
Gojo had brought his buddies to the roller coaster.
“Rollercoaster? CRINGE!” Power cringed.
“Rollercoaster? FUN!” Jan was excited.
“Never mind, I changed my mind,” Power muttered.
“It’s a good thing you’re here with us! Nam-ra and Zoro are missing out on the fun, which sucks for them. L bozo,” Gex snickered. “Okay, okay, the line’s not that really long for us to wait.”
“Tell me, young man! Are you excited for this?” Gojo asked Dot.
“Er, no…” Dot silently muttered.
“WHAT?! We literally got here for nothing!” Power gawked. “Don’t back out on this one, red spinach!”
“Red spinach? The fuck’s kind of that name?” Gex raised his brow.
“If Dot’s not gonna play-play, then we should leave!” Jan pouted in disappointment. “You took my excitement away.”
“Yeah, well, we’re stuck in the line. The exit was blocked,” Gojo stated. “Meaning… WE GET TO RIDE THE ROLLER COASTER! Forcefully.”
“YAY!”
“NO!” Dot screamed.
Later, all of them took their seats. Dot is in the front row with Gojo. Power, and Jan is behind their row, the rest of the seats are filled with random civilians, and Gex is in the last row with a random fat guy.
“Would’ve been better if I had been seated next to a HOT CHICK!” Gex complained.
The ride already started, and we’ll just skip to the part where they had a huge drop.
“AAAAAAAH!” Everyone screamed in excitement except for Dot.
“OOOOOOUGH, I’M GONNA PUKE—I CAN’T HANDLE IT—”
“DO NOT BARF RIGHT HERE—”
Time skip.
“Alright, looks like the coaster isn’t working!” Gojo pouted as he was cleaning his face. “We need something calm and fun!”
“Oh, how about that frisbee launcher thing?!” Power pointed at the thrill rides.
“Buddy, that’s Thrill Rides. And. NO!” Dot screamed.
“Welp, we gotta think more,” Gex sighed.
“Maybe get something simple! Like an ice cream or something,” Jan suggested, earning his team’s attention.
“Oh, oh, yeah, that works,” Gojo nodded along with everyone.
“Alright, Dot! How does an ice cream sound? Vanilla? Chocolate? Mint? Strawberry?” Gojo offered.
“EW! STRAWBERRY IS CRINGE AND TOO GIRLY!” Power barfed.
“Shut up, man. Strawberry is peak,” Gojo huffed. “What about you?”
Dot was already gone.
“WHERE DID HE GO?!”
“Oh, I remember you guys… You’re from the other team,” Dot muttered. “I dunno why you guys kidnapped me…”
“Well, did the Bears make you smile?” Teto asked, to which he replied with a no.
“You got the right person to help you smile!” Jack proudly claims.
“Okay, let’s head inside the spooky maze!” Teto declared, pointing at the haunted mansion.
Franky gulped in response. “Uh, can we head somewhere?”
“Nah, you can’t just back out like that. We’re helping a sad friend here,” Teto told him.
“I’ve seen worse. Let’s head inside,” The Governor stated. “I hope I don’t face walkers inside.”
“Walkers?” Eve raised her brow.
“Long story. Unhappy memories.”
They brought Dot into the haunted mansion.
“Zoro, quick. We can’t be separated for too long. One of us will be going if we didn’t contribute,” Nam-ra said.
“Well, that’s gonna suck, but I’m confident we can find them here,” Zoro thought.
“How? You brought me into the public restroom, and I don’t enjoy that smell,” Nam-ra cringed.
“Uh, I think we’ve gone the wrong way,” Zoro rubbed the back of his head.
“Yo, yo, what do we have here?” A gangster-looking man entered the restroom. “Ya getting lost in convention, kid?”
“I don’t like your face,” Zoro admitted.
“Well, I don’t like your edgy persona ass looking body, too,” The gangster exclaimed rudely.
“Look, we’re leaving,” Nam-ra said.
“Nah. You really have to go through me first—”
The student just snapped his hands with her strength.
“AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA—”
(CONFESSIONAL) ZORO:
“That does not look like an ordinary girl.”
The Wolves finished their haunted mansion tour. Dot was more terrified than smiling, including Franky.
“Whose idea was it to bring him here?” Teto stared at her teammates.
They looked at her.
“Oh…”
“Oh, oh, how about the photo booth? We can take a group picture!” Jack pointed at the booth.
“Hmm, that sounds plausible,” The Governor hummed. “Very well. Let’s do it.”
“Siiiiigh, I don’t even like pictures!” Dot groaned.
“It’s okay, man! Just one snap and it’ll be enough,” Eve smirked.
Safe to say, all of them somehow got stuck in the booth, taking numerous photos, and Dot had to crawl his way out of the booth, and the Wolves didn’t notice him leaving.
(CONFESSIONAL) JACK:
She chuckled at the long list of pictures taken, especially Franky’s one.
Dot was wandering alone until he bumped into the swordsman.
“AAAH! SORRY!” Dot screamed in fear. “You’re a big guy!”
“Dot? What are you doing here? Where did your friends go?” It was Zoro with Nam-ra.
“Uh, the Wolves were with me,” Dot shrugged. “I think they left.”
“Left? You’ve been wandering in circles. I don’t think they left you,” Nam-ra tilted her head.
“Okay, well, I escaped from them. I did not like taking group pictures,” Dot pouted. “So I ran away.”
“Understandable,” Zoro nodded. “Alright, kiddo. We’re trying to make you smile now.”
“Wait, why are you two chained?” Dot noticed that Nam-ra and Zoro's hands were chained.
“So he doesn’t get lost,” Nam-ra huffed.
“Ah, gotcha…” Dot replied.
“Just to clarify, we’re not a damn thing,” Zoro stated darkly.
“Uh, please, don’t tell me we’ve lost Dot,” Power gawked. “This is a serious problem!!!”
“Never thought you would care for a random guy like that,” Gex joked.
“Yeah, so I can torment his ass more,” Power answered.
“And Jan’s eating two ice creams now,” Gojo huffed. “One of them was for Dot, but he had gone missing.”
“Yum, can we have a pork cutlet soon?” Jan gawked in excitement. “I hope they sell those here!”
“Hell yeah, that shit’s peak,” Gojo clicked his fingers. “But maybe later.”
“This is boooooooring!” Power yawned. “Can we go play in the ball pit instead of doing the challenge?!”
“Hmmm, do I?” Gojo thought.
“Dude, we gotta find Dot,” Gex interrupted them.
“Booooo, you’re a party pooper!” Power pouted. “What are you gonna do when you find him?!”
“Uh, invite him to the bouncy castle?” Gojo suggested.
“Lameeee, I’d rather bite someone,” Power mouthed in disappointment.
(CONFESSIONAL) POWER:
“Don’t worry! Power has a better idea to make Dot smile, but I gotta get rid of those puny peeps first.”
Power and Gex were exploring.
“Why are you bringing me to the aquarium?” Gex inquired.
“Eh, just felt like watching fish,” Power answered with a shrug.
“Do you think it must have something to do with a fish to make him happy?” Gex pondered.
“Mmmm, maybe! Let’s take one and shove it to his face!” Power exclaimed.
“Oh, that’s a pretty funny idea,” Gex agreed, clearly ignoring the fact that they would just kidnap a fish without a water bucket.
When Gex opened a locker, Power just shoved him inside and locked him.
“I swear in my reptile tail, Power! What the freak are you doing, man?!” Gex yelled.
“Let Power do her own way!” Power declared loudly, keeping Gex locked.
“HEY, you can’t just leave me to suffocate inside!” Gex yelled. “Power!”
Silence.
“Damn.”
(CONFESSIONAL) GEX:
“Yeah, either stuck inside a locker with no room to breathe, or use a confessional booth. Sure, you get fresh air, but mixed with shit. I’m staying here anyway.”
Power randomly shows up in the booth. Dropping a TV that’s playing something before disappearing.
“Ohoooo! That’s nice! At least I have something to watch—O-EGADS—WHAT THE FUCK IS THAT—?!”
Power and Jan reunited.
“Okay, Jan! Did you lure Gojo away?” Power asked Jan.
“Niki-niki! It was a funny bait,” Jan proudly claimed. “Both of them are gone, now we’re figuring out the challenge in our way!”
“I like that, let’s go!” Power grinned.
Gojo’s bait in question is just having him see Utahime, who’s apparently working as a clown now.
“Heeeeeeeeey, Utahimeeeeeeeeeeee~”
“Will you fuck off for once?” Utahime gritted her teeth.
“You know, it’s really hard for me to draw if you keep moving your hands,” Nam-ra stated.
“Not my fault that you chained your dominant hair to mine,” Zoro deadpanned.
“How’s the drawing going? Is it fun?” Nam-ra asked Dot.
“How is this art lesson gonna help?” Dot frowned.
“Okay, never mind, we got our answer. Art doesn’t work,” Zoro huffed.
“Dang…”
“YO, VIRGINS!”
They turned to see Power and Jan.
“Oh, we finally found you,” Zoro said. “What are you doing here?”
“Duh, we came here to see Dot!” Power declared. “He ain’t smiling from your stupid art and crafts!”
“Okaaay? What’s your solution?” Nam-ra questioned them.
“Jan and Power found a solution, alright?” Jan grinned and puffed his chest.
“I feel like it’s not gonna end well,” Nam-ra sighed.
“I gotta agree,” Zoro followed.
“Bullshit, you’re just missing out on the peak,” Power mocked them. “Come on, Dot! Showtime!”
They pulled him and disappeared.
“Do we even want to know what kind of trick they’re pulling?” Nam-ra asked Zoro.
“Hell no, it’s Power,” Zoro cringed. “Expect the worst.”
The Wolves were busy chuckling at the long album of their silly group pictures from the booth. The Governor only noticed something had gone missing.
“Where the hell is Dot?” He asked, causing everyone to stop.
“Uh, he left?” Eve stated. “Wait… How long have we been in this booth?”
“Long enough. Look at the damn line,” The Governor gestured at the massive lines for the photo booth.
“Ah, shit, hold on, we’ll get off,” Jack apologized and left.
(CONFESSIONAL) THE GOVERNOR:
“I’m never taking pictures again, but I’m savoring this one. I won’t tell what it was, though.” He put the picture inside his pocket.
Jan and Dot were sitting in the Pirate Ship ride.
“Where’s Power?” Dot asked.
“I dunno, Power said she needed something to finish,” Jan proclaimed excitedly. “Jan’s so ready for this wild ride!”
“Ah, uh, yeah? I guess?” Dot whispered.
Unbeknownst to them, Power was inside the operator's room. The real operator was knocked out and stuffed inside the locker.
“Hehe, they won’t know what’s coming for them!” Power smirked as she fiddled with the ride operation.
At first, the ride went normally as they swung front and back, getting excitement from the visitors.
“WEEEEE!” Jan screamed in joy with his arms raised.
“You know what? This is—”
Suddenly, the ship jerked forward for no reason, feigning surprise from the guests.
“What was that—”
The pirate ship had gone faster now.
“Wow, never knew a pirate ship could be this wild!” Jan said excitedly.
“Uhhhh, I dunno, man. Something’s wrong with this—”
The swings are horrifically faster now, sending everyone screaming in terror to the point that the pirate ship had begun to loop in full circle. All of them were bracing for their seatbelts to prevent them from falling to their deaths.
“WHAT THE FUCK IS GOING ON?!” Dot was panicking and screaming at the same time.
Jan, however, was still happy, despite the chaos and their impending death.
Power was smacking the buttons to make the ship faster.
“Dude, look at that ship!” Franky said.
The Wolves looked at the pirate ship spinning in a loop at a fast rate.
“That sounds dangerous, I wanna play!” Jack offered.
“More like a suicide,” The Governor huffed. “This park isn’t exactly safe if they let it pass like that.”
“Heeey, I think the ship’s going off,” Franky stated.
“They’re bolted shut, they can’t—”
BAM!
The pirate ship spun so fast that the bolt broke, sending the ship flying into the apartment. Not a single person died in the incident. Hopefully. Totally. Yeah.
Power reached the crash site to find Dot. She found her buried under the debris with Jan. Jan was the one to rise from his temporary grave and cheer.
“RIKI-RIKI! THAT WAS THE GREATEST AND WILDEST RIDE EVER!” Jan cheered.
“Ugh…”
Power noticed Dot recovering.
“Yo, red urchin! How was the ride? Was it full of joy?” Power smirked.
“HELL, NO! I’M FREAKIN’ TRAUMATIZED FOR THIS!” Dot exclaimed. “Is it you behind this madness?!”
“Maaaaybe… Maybe not,” Power shrugged.
“We literally saw you enter the operating room,” The other visitor questioned her.
“Erm… TYPO!”
“I’m over it, man. You can’t do anything anymore,” Dot sobbed as he left the crash site, entering the park again for some reason.
(CONFESSIONAL) POWER:
“A+ for an effort, bro!”
“Did you literally just see that destruction?” Nam-ra said.
“Yeah, something must’ve gone wrong,” Zoro barked. “This ride should be banned for life.”
BANG! BANG! BANG!
“AAAAH! CABINET MONSTER!” A child screamed.
They turned around to see a locker hopping toward the pair.
(CONFESSIONAL) NAM-RA:
“I should be thanking Zoro for these ear muffs; they kept the loud noise from hurting me.”
The locker stopped at the pair. “Hey! Zoro! Nam-ra! Get me out of here!”
“Gex? Is that you?” Zoro asked.
“Yeah! That fuckin’ demon chick locked me inside and forced me to watch the worst film ever!” Gex begged. “So please, lemme out of here! I’ve been running out of breath soon!”
“Alright, don’t move, lizard,” Zoro instructed. “Don’t move, this is gonna be serious work.”
He took out his swords and sliced the locker open, slicing everything but Gex.
“Oh, you actually freed me! Thank you, bros!” Gex complimented the swordsman.
“Yo, what’s up, dude?”
They noticed Gojo, covered in a weird smudge and trash, approaching the group. “How was the challenge?”
“Not done yet. Also, you fuckin’ reeks,” Zoro covered his nose along with everyone.
“GOJO! Where the heck have you been?” Gex yelled. “I was stuck in the locker for a while!”
“I found Utahime, dude,” Gojo answered. “Can you believe that she’s actually working here while dressed up as a clown?”
“And is this how you were covered in… that mess?” Nam-ra asked, which he nodded.
“Hey, guys, we’re back!” Power and Jan returned.
Gex looked at the pair disapprovingly.
“What? It was a typo!” Power defended herself… horribly.
The Wolves found Dot slumping on the bench.
“Why was Dot crying again?” Jack asked.
“Rejected by Princess Peach,” The Governor answered.
“I wonder what’s so charming about her?” Eve thought. “Does he need a woman?”
“If that’s the case, then that would be the funniest and saddest thing to hear,” The Governor replied.
“I just got a plan!” Jack revealed as her teammates looked at her.
She approached Dot.
“HEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEY, Dot!” Jack pulled Dot to join her. “We’re going to show you something better!”
“Cool body for a chick like you, but my true goal is Lemon, ok?” Dot stated, making Jack frown.
(CONFESSIONAL) JACK:
“I give up.”
“Nope, it didn’t work,” Jack pouted.
“I can’t believe you tried to hook up with him,” The Governor facepalmed.
“Well, we’re outta options!” Jack shouted. “Why is he hooking up with Peach if his goal was Lemon?”
“Blond woman,” Franky guessed, earning ‘Oooh’ from everyone.
“So, like, what do we do now?” The Governor told his team.
“Hey, guys, you have Dot. Can we borrow him?” Jan asked kindly.
“Yeah, we gave up. Take him,” Jack sighed, making Jan squeal and drag the student like a rag doll.
“Why are you guys so fine with giving away our source to win?” The Governor begrudgingly asked.
“Man, we literally had DONE NOTHING!” Franky complained. “None of the ideas worked, and we’re going to lose the challenge again.”
“Oh, come on. The last challenge was utterly crap because they lied to Chris!” Teto spoke up until she froze in realization.
“Alright, we’re stopping at the lamest destination of the game! Knock the cans,” Gojo gestured toward the carnival stall game. “If THIS plan didn’t work out, we’ll just dump him in the ocean for spoiling him too much and hasn’t smiled for once.”
“Agreed.”
“Haw? Why lame? Jan’s confused!” Jan asked.
“You’ll see, buddy. You’ll see,” Gojo shrugged. “So, Dot! It’s a pretty fun and simple game where you just throw a ball and knock the cans!”
“Knock the cans for what?” Dot replied.
“Uh, duh! Plushies? Even if ya win it and don’t use it, I can have it as a chew toy!” Power declared.
“Hell, no,” Gojo intervened. “Let Dot have his fun! We’re supposed to make him smile!”
“Alright, alright, who’s ready for a game?” The stall owner showed up.
“Wait. Do we have money?” Jan asked.
“Ehhh, no,” Gex responded with a sigh.
“Aw, man. I was hoping it would be Utahime so we can play for free,” Gojo groaned. “Any other plans since we can’t purchase anything?”
Power handed a bill to the owner. “Hey, let that twink play!”
“TWINK!?” Dot was flabbergasted.
“Okay, knock six cans and you win a prize,” The owner gave him three balls.
Dot knocked five out of six cans in his first throw.
“Damn, almost there, bro!” Gojo grinned. “Go get it, Tiger!”
Dot missed the second throw. A lot of groans were heard.
“Bro, your aim is abysmal—AND CRINGE!” Power yelled.
“Stop, I am TRYING!” Dot said fearfully.
“Riki-riki! You can do it!” Jan motivated the student.
Dot took a deep breath. He aimed carefully. He threw it with perfect aim, knocking the can, but it didn’t budge.
“Welp, you lost.”
They see a magnet beneath the table.
“MOTHERFUCKER, YOU PLANTED A MAGNET UNDER THE CAN!” Power accused.
“That’s literally bullshit, bro,” Gex sighed. “This is one of those classic carnival game scams!”
“Nah, I didn’t,” The owner shrugged, completely ignorant.
“Bitch, he did it!” Gojo defended.
“Waaaa?! Bado-bado! That’s not cool! Bad! Bad!” Jan mouthed.
“DUDE, THAT’S FUCKIN’ BULLSHIT!” Dot screamed. “That whole game is rigged!”
“Your stupid hand was rigged, don’t blame me, haha,” The stall owner mocked him.
“Explomb!” Dot waved the wand toward the stall, exploding it into pieces, and the owner flew, leaving a trail of smoke.
Everyone was standing in shock and wide-eyed.
“Oh my god, you just killed him,” Gex whispered. “Eh, he deserved it. Screw that scam game.”
“Well? You literally killed someone, does that make you happy?” Gojo asked the student, who replied with a frown.
Silence.
He smiled.
“This… THIS IS THE BEST DAY EVER!” Dot cried in joy. “THAT SCAMMER DESERVES IT!”
“Oh, shit. We did it! We made them happy—”
“WAAA! You tricked me!”
A child was crying at the stall owner.
“What? Game’s fair,” The other owner shrugged. “Too bad, you'd better put your skill to work if you want to win this prize.”
“But I did it fair and square!”
“Nooooope, I don’t see it,” The owner mocked him.
“Bitch, you scammed this kid?!” Dot approached the stall.
“Nope.”
“Yes!” The child exclaimed.
“Are you his father or something—”
“EXPLOMB!”
BOOM!
“Hah, another game turned into dust—” Gex laughed.
BOOM!
“Uh… Dude?”
BOOM!
Dot kept destroying the other scam games with his explosion magic, sending everyone into panic.
“Uh, dude, you gotta stop—”
BOOM!
More panic was heard, and Dot was clearly in a state of not listening to them.
“Should we… uh… just leave? We already made him smile, right?” Gojo whispered.
“That should be good, let’s go,” Gex replied.
“Do we just let the potential worldwide terrorist roam free like that?” Nam-ra was definitely not happy.
“Let’s hope he didn’t tell the authority that we’re the ones who gave those ideas,” Zoro whispered. “Even though we didn’t.”
The Bears slowly snuck out of the park, escaping the chaos.
The Wolves arrived at the chaos.
“What the hell? Is he a bad guy now?” Eve questioned.
“I dunno, lock him or something,” Franky suggested.
“I gotchu!”
Jack threw an iron pumpkin to knock the student out cold. They grabbed his body and threw him into their jeep.
“The whole park’s on fire, we need a better place to do the challenge,” The Governor admitted.
The Bears returned to the main area.
“Guys, we gotta inform Mash that we made his friend happy!” Gex shouted.
“Where is HE?!” Power remarked.
“Look around!” Gojo hopped off the jeep.
A few minutes later. The Bears arrived, dropping the unconscious Dot to the ground.
“We should make a plan for how to make him happy,” Franky sighed.
“Oughh…”
“Oh, he’s up. Wake up, sunshine!” Jack said.
Dot got up and was confused. “How did I get here?”
“We knocked you out for being out of control and brought you here,” Teto said.
“Aw, man. I went too far, didn’t I?” Dot sighed.
They heard a rustling, revealing the Bears leaving the bush, not being able to find the host.
“Where the FUCK is the marker face guy?!” Power screamed. “We already won the challenge!”
Another one arrived, this time it’s a law enforcement figure.
“POLICE! DOT BARRETT! YOU’RE UNDER ARREST FOR THE DESTRUCTION OF—”
“EXPLOMB!” Dot yelled at the cop whilst waving his stick.
He exploded the man into ashes, and Mash just recently arrived at the main area.
“Hey, guys, I got the creampuffs—hey, did that guy just turn into sand?” Mash spoke up after returning with creampuffs.
“Yeah, he did.” Literally everyone made their statement.
“Heeey, Mash! I had fun!” Dot waved with a grin.
“You… smiled?” Mash was shocked.
“Yeah! The amusement park was full of joy,” Dot laughed.
“Well, if annihilating that man… makes my friend happy, then you win,” Mash hummed. “Who was the one who brought up the idea of killing him?”
The Bears raised their hands.
“Yeah, we did—”
“Nah, we actually did that,” Jack claimed.
“Really?” Mash looked at Jack.
“Hey—” Jan was cut off.
“Yeah, yeah, we gave Dot the advice.” The Wolves lied to Mash.
“Dude, they’re lying! We actually did it—” Gex mouthed.
“Nooope, you’re lying.”
“YOU LIED!”
“WE DID THIS!”
“NO, THE FUCK, YOU AIN’T!”
“SHUT UPPP! WE TOLD THE TRUTH!”
“Mash! Which team do you believe more?!” Nam-ra asked.
Mash was zoned out, got too lost in the argument, and remained motionless.
“He’s out cold,” Zoro pointed out.
“Heads and Tails. Winner wins the challenge,” Gex declared proudly.
“Okay.” Everyone agreed.
“I pick Heads!” Franky claimed.
“And I’ll be Tails, then,” Gex huffed.
Gex threw the coins and slammed them, and he fumbled the game by showing Heads.
“WE WON, WOOOOOOOO!” Franky and his teammates celebrated, leaving the Bears in an unhappy state.
“Good job, dumbass,” Power glared at the gecko.
“Fuck you,” Gex shot back. “Why did you guys lie?!”
“Hey, you lied to Chris in the last challenge and won, so now we gave you a payback with another lie to let us win,” Eve shrugged.
“Bitch,” Gex muttered.
Mash finally recovered. “Uh, I heard the Bears lost the challenge, is that right?”
The Wolves nodded.
“Good to know, now, uh, Bears? Pick your vote because one of you will be leaving tonight,” Mash coughed as the Bears left the area in disappointment.
“Uh, what about our prize?” Teto asked her host.
“Prize?”
“Yeah? They were supposed to get one whenever they won the challenge,” Jack stated.
“Uhhhhh… Hold on…”
Mash looked everywhere, but it was just trees and cabins. He just looked down and struck his fist underground. He caught onto something and pulled something heavy out, revealing a random buried treasure chest.
Everyone stood silently and blinked at the sight of a guy casually pulling a buried chest out of the underground with his hands.
“Alright, here’s your prize. I gotta set up the marshmallows,” Mash huffed.
Gojo and Gex hurdled in one spot.
“So, who are we getting rid of?” Gex hummed. “This is kinda hard.”
“Zoro was unironically helpful today,” Gojo said. “From what that girl said.”
“Then we can just bring them to vote with us!” Gex declared. “Anyway, I think we should just go for the devil lady.”
“The blood devil? Man, why? She’s fun to be around,” Gojo defended her. “I would rather vote for Jan.”
“Oh, come on. Did you NOT see what she did to me?”
“Do what?”
“She locked me in the locker and left me to die.”
“I dunno, that was a funny prank,” Gojo smirked.
“No, the fuck?” Gex sighed. “Okay, have you seen this film that Power gave to me? Want to watch?”
“Sure thing!”
Silence.
“Okay, jump her.”
Mash arrived with three seconds to spare with a tray containing five cream puffs made out of marshmallows. He put them on a stump before standing in front of the makeshift podium.
“Uh, I had someone build this for me,” Mash awkwardly claimed. “How is it?”
“Looks ass! It’s gonna collapse like a LEGO tower,” Power proclaimed loudly.
“Uh, okay? Thanks for the compliment,” Mash said. “I’ve counted all the votes. You get a marshmallow if you’re safe. The first safe being… Nam-ra…”
Nam-ra caught hers.
“Zoro.”
He got hit when he was napping.
“Jan…”
Jan caught his prize proudly.
“And… Gojo.”
“Woo, thanks, man!” Gojo added.
“We’re down to… Power and Gex. One of you will be leaving tonight… Our tonight’s loser is…”
…
…
…
…
…
…
…
…
…
…
“Power… is eliminated. Gex takes the last marshmallow.”
“HAHA, SUCK ON THAT!” Gex taunted the devil that he didn’t catch his cream puff. “Aw, dang it.”
Power left her jaw hanging before she stood up to face them.
“YOU DARE TO VOTE POWER THE GREAT?!” Power shouted at her former teammates.
“Kid, you literally almost killed the innocents,” Zoro said.
“I’M NOT A KID! I WAS HELPING OUT!”
“That’s not helping out, dude,” Gex stated. “You really thought sending the pirate ship flying was cool?”
“Yeah!”
“Damn, I wish I were on that ride sooner,” Gex sighed. “But alas, screw you for locking me in the locker room!”
“Bitch, fuck all of you! All of you dumbass should DIE!” Power declared. “Except you, red freak, you’re cool,” She told Jan.
“Waaa!!! Thanks, Power! I even voted for you!” Jan answered.
“WHAT?!”
“You’re a huge zowa-zowa for almost killing people!” Jan huffed and crossed his arms.
“Well, at least he got brains,” Gojo snickered.
“BITCH, I HOPE ALL OF YOU—”
“Hey, lesbian… Are you gonna go?” Mash told Power.
“I. AM. NOT. GAAAAAAAAAAAAAY!” Power screamed back.
A random van pulls out, revealing multiple SWAT officers apprehending the blood devil.
“WHAT THE FUCK DID I DO?!”
“You’ve been under arrest for attempted murder! Don’t move!” The officers dragged her into the van.
The van just left like that after putting Power inside.
“Yo, Mash. Thanks for reading my note to call her a ‘lesbian,’” Gex snickered.
“You’re welcome?” Mash yawned. “Anyway, head back to your cabin. It’s nighttime…”
“Are we forgetting something?” Gojo asked.
“Haw? What is it?” Jan replied with a brow.
“Ooooh, Dot’s still on the run,” Zoro pointed out.
The Wolves were getting prepared to sleep after their victory by lying, not really. Until Dot arrived at their doorstep.
“Hey, guys, thank you for helping me out!” Dot smiled.
“Huh? Yeah, no problem,” Teto yawned. “Can we sleep now?”
“Uh… I gotta tell ya, man. The adventure in the park was very fun!” Dot grinned.
“Uh-huh.”
“Anyway, I was already happy before the whole bombing, haha!” Dot declared proudly, making everyone freeze in their spot.
“You… What?”
“What?”
“You’re joking, right?”
“Heck, I wasn’t joking. I was already happy when you brought me to the photo booth!” Dot laughed. “I just didn’t show it because I already escaped.”
“So… Everything was all for nothing?” Jack said.
“Nothing? You guys still won!” Dot huffed.
The Wolves cracked their knuckles and approached them menacingly.
“Uhhh… We had fun… Right?”
“Get the rope. We’ll show you the real fun,” The Governor ordered, earning a nod from his teammates.
Time skip. The Wolves had Dot tied with a rope to keep him from moving and planted him on the coaster cart of the Merry-Go-Whirl.
“Wait. YOU’RE NOT GONNA LAUNCH ME WITH THAT THING?!” Dot gasped.
“Pull the lever, Governor!” Teto yelled.
The Governor pulled the lever.
“OH, MOTHERFUCK—”
SWIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIING!
The coaster went through one hell of a ride and was sent flying at the end of the disconnected track.
“CURSE YOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOUUUU!”
Ding.

Chapter 8: Ep. 6 - "#twohomieskissingeachothergoodnight"
Summary:
Might be the worst challenge I've written.
Notes:
Definitely didn’t reuse the challenge from my old CECU work that was taken from other CECU work. Reusing asset… Yakuza reference?! Anyway, the Governor’s name will be shortened to Gov, so it will be easier for me to write lmao.
(See the end of the chapter for more notes.)
Chapter Text
“Last time on… Uh… Total Drama… Gaiden. Dot came to me and was sad because… something bad happened. The campers were tasked to make him happy, leading to… a flying pirate ship and a bombing incident… I hope it wasn’t my friend who did that. And I think my friend has gone missing, and I can’t help him because I have to work on this game… Yeah, sorry about that, Dot. Power was the last person to be eliminated, and we’re… down to eleven. Find out on this episode of… Total. Drama… Gaiden!”
Yes, he delivered the recap with a stoic expression.
[INTRO]
The gang was just watching the news on TV, covering yesterday’s incident involving Power’s pirate ship rig and Dot’s destruction. They had claimed they arrested Power, but Dot was still missing.
“Damn, that devil got apprehended? Good for her,” Gex snickered. “That woman deserves it.”
(CONFESSIONAL) GOJO:
“Oh, gee, I wonder what happened to Dot? Can’t imagine losing your friend for being too overly excited about blowing things up.”
They continued watching the news until someone switched the program to a random music channel. They turned around to see that Teto was holding the remote and switching the channel.
“What? The news was gettin’ boring,” Teto snarled as she took a bite of her cream puff.
“Hey, man, have you guys seen Franky?” Gex asked.
“Why’s that?” Gov replied with a raised brow.
“Dude has been acting weird lately, I dunno why,” Gex shrugged. “Gojo can back up with my claim.”
“Yeeeeep, one hundred percent!” Gojo smiled.
“Frank? Being weird? Ain’t the first time,” Eve frowned.
“This is a serious matter, buddy!” Gex huffed.
“Oh, how about this? We’ll go hunt and expose his secret at once?” Teto smirked.
“Whoa, riki-riki! We’re gonna get so wild with this one!” Jan jumped out of his seat. “Let’s do it!”
“Are we just agreeing to invade his personal space—” Zoro coughed. “Ah, whatever, I’m butting in.”
(CONFESSIONAL) EVE:
“Normally, I would decline, but everyone went along, so I had to join… Out of curiosity.”
“Alright, this is where we last saw Franky,” Gex showed the grasslands. “That’s like… a few hours ago.”
“Tell me, lizardman. Was he seeing someone?” Jack asked.
“Hmmm, he was carrying a shovel,” Gex pointed out. “Yeah, a shovel.”
“Shovel? What did he need that for?” Nam-ra asked.
“He’s probably digging something, or burying evidence of the most horrifying crime he had committed,” Zoro claimed. “One of those two.”
“Innocent until proven guilty,” Eve nodded.
“Oh, I see him!”
Later. They found Franky burying something with his shovel.
“How do we ambush him?” Gojo asked.
“Ambush? Why not just confront him?” Nam-ra said.
“Dammit, you don’t know how fast he can slip,” Zoro sighed. “Trust me, I had an experience chasing after him.”
“Is he that quick, or you just got lost?” Jack muttered.
“Let’s ambush that bado-bado afro-man!” Jan declared.
Gojo was the first one to jump.
“WE CAUGHT YOU, FRANKY! HANDS UP WHERE I CAN SEE ‘EM!” Gojo shouted with a megaphone.
“EEEEYIKES! Where did you guys come from?!” Franky surrendered himself and dropped his shovel.
“Admit it, Franky! You’re hiding evidence of your terrible crimes!” Teto accused him.
“WHAT CRIME?!”
“Playing dumb now, ey?” Gex snarled. “We’re going to unbury the shit now!”
Turns out it was the same chest from the last challenge.
“Uhh, Frank? What were you doing with that chest? Are you… burying them?” Jack asked.
“Yes! I’ve been working my ass off to hide the treasure from the Bears!” Franky admitted. “I didn’t do anything bad!”
“Hold on, hold on! Where did you get those chests from?!” Gex demanded.
“Mash gave it to us,” Eve spoke.
“WHAT?!”
“We’re serious. We won this chest… uh… I didn’t say anything,” Franky said quietly.
“Yeah, so, you got the chest? From Mash?” Zoro tilted.
“We found it first, you can’t steal it!” Franky covered his chest.
“This treasure is worthless, though,” Teto pointed out.
“Huh?”
“Look. That crap is very old, broken, and rusty. There’s no way someone’s willing to buy that,” Eve followed by.
“Are you serious?”
“Yeah, you can’t see why none of us had interest in those treasures,” Gov shrugged.
“GOD DAMN IT!” Franky threw his shovel.
(CONFESSIONAL) FRANKY:
“I was planning to take the treasure with me in case I’m out of the game, so I still have my prize… ugh…”
A loudspeaker rang.
“Hey, uh, speaking, speaking… Mash’s here…” Mash spoke in an ungodly high volume.
“STOP THIS, PLEASE!” Nam-ra begged whilst covering her ears… Well, everyone did the same.
“Someone shut this man—”
“I wanna remind you to head to the main area,” Mash continued to speak in high volume, unknowingly burning everyone’s eardrums.
“Let’s go! We’re beating his ass when we get there!” Teto snarled.
“Uh… oh… I didn’t notice I spoke way too loudly,” Mash bowed to apologize. “Forgive me for this.”
“Yeah, yeah, just make sure to properly use the loudspeaker. We actually want to keep you, so Chris won’t host for a while,” Zoro muttered, earning a nod from everyone.
“Especially you… Miss Nam-ra,” Mash bowed at Nam-ra.
“It’s… fine…” Nam-ra slowly removed her hands from her ears.
“So, what’s the challenge?” Teto asked.
“You two will create a pair…” Mash instructed. “Once you’re done, I’ll figure out the next challenge…”
“Wait… Now?”
“Yes. I’d recommend that, because I felt it’s safer than letting me decide the pair… I think…” Mash stated, earning a lot of ‘Ooh’ from everyone.
“Uh, makes sense,” Gex nodded. “Alright, blindspot, you’re with me!”
Gojo gave the gecko a high-five. “You’re in, bro!”
Zoro and Nam-ra just formed their pair.
“Yo, Gov! We should make a great pair!” Franky smirked until he noticed Jack. “On the other hand, I’m picking her…”
“Sure…” The Governor replied. “Who the hell am I stuck with?”
He noticed Eve.
“You, I guess,” Gov said.
“Alright, I have no other choice,” Eve sighed.
“Who’s my partner, then?” Teto asked.
“Yahoo!”
“Oooh…” Teto said, upon seeing Jan as her last option.
(CONFESSIONAL) TETO:
“I can hope this guy was better than Power.”
“Anyone got a good guess what this challenge is gonna be?” Gojo asked everyone.
“It’s Mash. It’s probably something simple,” Jack murmured.
“Oh, it could be like a tag team contest,” Eve assumed.
“Nah, it’s singing!” Teto said. “That would’ve been cooler!”
“Defusing a bomb together?” Gex stated. “I dunno, but it might sound badass!”
“Agreed.” Gojo hummed.
Mash prepared a box.
“What’s this?”
“I can’t think of any ideas, so I borrowed the box, listing every challenge that Chris had saved,” Mash spoke up as he dug through the box. “I found one.”
“Alright, read it. What’s our challenge?”
Mash read their next challenge.
“Dating contest.”
.
“WHAT?!”
“What? I’m just reading what was written inside the paper,” Mash showed the page. “It’s your today’s challenge.”
"Of course, Chris would come up with something like that," Eve begrudgingly sighed.
“So, wait, how’s the date gonna work?” Nam-ra inquired.
“You… date with someone you just paired with?” Mash tilted his head. “That would make sense.”
All of them groaned.
“Damn, guess two of us are gonna be playing as a couple, huh?” Gex snickered.
“Haha, we can probably do this challenge well,” Gojo answered.
Zoro and Nam-ra looked at each other before nodding in acceptance. Meanwhile, Gov and Eve… Probably not good.
(CONFESSIONAL) THE GOVERNOR:
“I had a wonderful wife and daughter, but this? This is just outrageous.”
(CONFESSIONAL) NAM-RA:
“I felt like I’ve done this type of contest in the past…”
“Waki-waki! What’s dating?” Jan asked his partner, who could only groan.
“Yooo, I’m so lucky to pair up with Jack!” Franky grinned at Jack, who giggled.
“Let’s do our best~” Jack said.
“Wait. Do you EVEN know how romance works? Have you ever dated anyone?” Eve asked.
“Uh… What’s ‘romance’?” Mash was confused.
“Oh my god, why did you choose that challenge?” Teto groaned. “We’re going to be screwed.”
“Dude, dude, it’s easy. It’s just taking out to dinner, having a nice talk, sharing the same common interests, and kissing! Oh, even better—you can have s—”
“NO!”
“Fine,” Gex shut his mouth.
“Oh, that’s simple then,” Mash mouthed. “The worst two pairs will be put up for elimination, and one person per pair will go home, meaning it’s double elimination,” Mash announced. “So, uh, just don’t have the most terrible date ever.”
“D-D-DOUBLE???” Teto gasped.
“Uh… Isn’t that how the last team challenge ends before the merge?” Mash added.
“Wait, huh? We’re merging now?” Jack asked.
“No, it’s still a team challenge,” Gov replied.
“Yeah, table’s over there,” Mash said, showing them the table. “Get seated, and I’ll be ready…”
Pair:
Gojo - Gex
Zoro - Nam-ra
Gov - Eve
Franky - Jack
Jan - Teto
The pair just sat at their table without speaking, making the whole ‘date’ awkward. Except for Franky, who chatted animatedly with Jack.
“So, uh, what… do you do for life?” Zoro awkwardly asked, not trying to look intimidating. (He failed)
“Um… I study at high school… Well, until that happened,” Nam-ra answered. “What about you?”
“What happened?” Zoro asked, and the student kept quiet. “Ah, well, I’m a part of the Straw Hat Pirates. You ever heard of them?”
She shook her head. “Figures.”
“Hey, um, I recall you joined because Chris offered you a spot, right?” Nam-ra assumed. “You weren’t in the list originally…”
“Ah, yeah, I joined because I don’t get to see that perv cook,” Zoro rubbed his hair.
“Perv cook… You don’t mean Sanji?”
“I’m surprised you remembered that man’s name, but yes,” Zoro shrugged. “So far, I’m… unironically enjoying the stay in this weird show. Have you ever dated anyone?”
“Uh… I have a boyfriend…” Nam-ra admitted. “We didn’t get the chance to date because we’re in the middle of… tragedy.”
“I see…”
The laugh interrupted them, noticing it was Gojo and Gex.
“Shit, dude. That happened?” Gojo smirked.
“Hell yeah, you should’ve seen her reaction when I did it. It’s a pretty gold mine,” Gex laughed.
“Man, you two are loud,” Teto grumbled.
“Oh, yeah? Wanna see what I can do?” Gojo grinned.
He just does a funny thing that I couldn’t think to write. But it’s funny. Trust.
“You’re not funny,” Gov deadpanned.
He gasped in shock. “It’s over, gang. I’m not called funny,” Gojo dramatically faints with a rose he’s holding.
“Waaah?! Did he die?!” Jan gulped.
“No, I’m playing around,” Gojo said as he got up. “Man, that was nice.”
“Dude, Mash. Have you heard of a rumor of a swamp monster lurking around the island?” Gex asked the host.
“Uh… No? Why would you bring that up to me?” Mash replied in confusion.
“I dunno, just thought you’d be interested in hunting monster,” Gex admitted.
“What are we supposed to do here?” Jack asked.
“I dunno? Talk?” Franky murmured. “Say, you got some nice halo!”
“Aw, thanks,” Jack answered. “What do you do for life?”
“What? I’m just some tobacconist,” Franky shrugged.
“Really? You mentioned being an informant like a few days ago, in front of us,” Jack pointed out.
“I guess I did mention that… Haha,” Franky gulped.
“It’s okay, we can keep it quiet,” Jack smiled. “If you show me something exciting you got.”
“Well, I only have this experimental pocket-sized lighter!” Franky pulled them out and flicked them on.
“Oooh, what’s that for?” Jack asked.
“Trying to make our date really smooth with this spark of love, teehee,” Franky grinned. “I’m also an inventor.”
“Inventor? Sick, huh…?” Jack hummed.
“Let’s order something,” Franky hummed, then a burly man appeared behind him.
“What do you want to order?” The waiter with spiky hair appeared and asked his customer.
“AAAH?!” Franky jumped out of surprise. “Where did you come from?!”
He sighed. “You’re on the right track. What are you ordering?”
“Give us… the recommended one,” Franky requested.
“Alright… That would be… some fancy Italian pasta,” The intern grumbled awkwardly. “What about you, Miss Valentine?”
“I’ll… have the same thing,” Jack hummed.
“Mhm… Two… Pastas coming right up,” The intern wrote his note.
“Ooooh, shit, we gotta order!” Gex whispered to his ally.
“Dammit, OOOOIII, WAITERRRR!”
“Not so loud! Now you’re giving them clues!” Gex panicked.
And now everyone is following his idea and has begun ordering.
“Please… keep it down,” The intern-waiter groaned. “I’m taking everyone’s order one by one…”
“OOOOOOH, WAITEEEEEEEEEEER!” Teto yelled.
The waiter’s eye began to twitch as he was writing Gov and Eve’s order before leaving for the next pair.
“You know, Eve,” Gov grumbled. “I don’t think this is working out for obvious reasons.”
“Yeah, I thought the same. I’m not even trying,” Eve slumped forward to lie her head on the table.
“Yo, what’s taking so long, man?” Gojo grinned as he waved like an idiot.
“Will you please wait?” The waiter groaned. “I’m new to taking orders… as a waiter.”
“Can you suggest anything else than a pork cutlet?” Teto grunted at her partner.
“Wah? They don’t serve pork?!” Jan gasped.
“We do,” The waiter told him.
“Okay, add, like, maybe a hundred more!” Jan grinned happily.
“NO!” Teto cried. “You’re going to prolong the order—”
“Alright, I’ll just go over there,” He sighed and approached Gojo and Gex.
“YES!” Gex celebrated. “Alright, my soon-to-be-husband pal! What are ya ordering?”
“Hmm, I’ll have two number 9s, a number 9 large, a number 6 with extra diiiiiiiiiiip,” Gojo looked up at the sky as he was ordering. “A number 7, two number 45, one with cheese, and a large soda.”
“We… don’t have numbered menus,” The waiter deadpanned.
“I know, dude. I was just messing with you,” Gojo laughed.
“Yeah, good one!” Gex gave his buddy a high-five.
BAM!
The waiter broke their table in two pieces with his fist before collecting himself.
“Pardon my behavior, there was… a mosquito,” The waiter coughed before leaving for the last pair.
(CONFESSIONAL) GEX:
“Dude, that guy looked like someone who would toss you off a volcano cliff.”
He approached Zoro and Nam-ra.
“What are you ordering, Miss?” Zoro asked his partner.
“Um… Something simple…?” Nam-ra muttered. “Wait… what’s the menu?”
“Wait a minute, damn,” Zoro snorted. “The kids have been ordering without looking at the menu?”
“Just order what you desire,” The waiter sighed.
“Okay, okay, just… meat stuff, I guess,” Zoro shrugged.
“Baked salmon… for me,” She quietly ordered.
“Okay, that will be all,” The waiter nodded and left the dining area.
30 minutes later.
“I don’t recall the fried eggs taking forever to finish,” Gov stated.
“Maybe they’re ordering everyone’s dish at once,” Eve assumed.
“We’re here.”
They looked forward to their dish only to be met by Mash and the waiter, holding nothing.
“W-wait, where’s our dish?” Teto gulped. “Did your hungry ass ATE THEM?!”
“Wait, no, no, no,” Mash coughed. “Well, the food’s… not here.”
“WHAT?!”
“We were just taking your order to rate your taste of food,” The waiter responded with a cough. “His order. Not mine.”
“Mhm… we were rating which pair has the best order,” Mash said.
“Yeah, and, no offense, idol lady. You just ordered a breakstick,” The waiter replied. “That’s like the worst thing to order when it comes to a dinner date.”
“Bro, come on! You never said anything about rating our food order!” Teto complained.
“So, which pair takes the win?” Zoro asked.
“Well…” Mash hummed as he looked at his clipboard. “Franky and Jack take the win.”
“What? Are you serious?” Gov demanded.
“Yes? They just ordered soups, and we thought it was enough to score them a win,” Mash admitted with a shrug.
“SOUPS?! HOW IS THAT FAIR?!” Gex croaked.
“Yeah, like, WHAT?!” Gojo complained.
“WAH?! NO PORK?!” Jan gasped. “Bado-bado to you!”
“Okay, uh, we won, right?” Jack asked.
“Yeah, well, that’s not the end of the game…” Mash said. “There are two more parts before the dating contest actually ends.”
Everyone groaned. Mash looked at his hired waiter.
“Thanks for the help, Mr… Uh…”
“Kazama. Jin Kazama,” He sighed.
“Right. I forgot. Thanks for reminding me,” Mash hummed. “Would you mind staying here a little longer? There are two more courses to do.”
“Alright… you better owe me the paycheck,” Jin grunted.
“What’s the second date about?” Eve raised her hands.
“Eh… It’s a… simple dancing date,” Mash huffed. “You know… You just… dance like a couple…?”
“Oh, leave it to the expert like me!” Franky bragged.
“Do your best,” Jack winked.
“I have a question,” Eve raised her hands.
“Yes?”
“How did you even find this guy? The muscular man, I mean,” Eve asked him about Jin.
“Went to town for groceries… Found him… Told him about the game… He’s working on this game now,” Mash coughed.
“I don’t recall doing that. I came to look for Xiaoyu and Panda—”
“And you still accepted it…?” Mash pointed out.
“Damn,” Jin huffed. “Only because you were hosting Total Drama, and… there’s nobody here besides Chris rotting in the bed.”
“Yeah, just forget about Chris,” Gov reminded.
“Gotcha,” Jin nodded.
“So… where do we dance?” Jan asked the host.
“Here,” Mash yawned.
“But this grassland is plain, and where’s the disco ball?” Teto complained.
“I’ll get to it,” Mash rolled his sleeves and approached the woods.
Two minutes later, he had just built the fully functional disco room with his bare hands.
“Alright, we’re heading in,” Mash spoke casually.
All of them didn’t bothered to ask him a question, so they just entered the homemade disco party.
“Do you know how to dance?” Teto asked Jan.
“Huh? Yeah! I get wild every time,” Jan smirked. “Jan can dance!”
“Are you sure?”
“Yes.”
“We’ll be starting with the first pair… Gov and Eve,” Mash announced. “You’re the first one to dance.”
The eyepatch man blinked. “We’re going to dance as they’re watching us?”
“Yes… That way, we won’t lose our track,” Mash shrugged.
“What if we… refused?” Eve inquired.
“That’s an automatic fail, I must say,” Jin stated.
Silence.
“Uhh… Are you going to dance?”
“Nope,” The pair replied simultaneously.
“Didn’t expect an immediate white flag,” Mash sighed. “Zoro and Nam-ra, you’re next.”
“Us…?” Zoro was surprised. “Can’t the other go first?”
“You’re giving up already?” Teto tilted her head.
“Nope, we’re… not prepared at all… actually, I don’t even know how to dance,” Zoro grumbled.
“Same,” Nam-ra shyly admitted.
“I think it’s just handholding while doing steps,” Eve suggested.
“We’ll do our best despite getting humiliated on live,” Zoro sighed.
The pair began to dance, although it was pretty awkward, they earned a little compliment.
“That’s… uh… good work,” Jin huffed.
“Oh, we’re next?” Franky asked.
“Nah, you two,” He pointed to Jan and Teto.
“Yahoo! This is gonna be riki-riki!” Jan cheered. “Let’s dance, Teto!”
“I hope we can do well,” Teto shrugged.
Yeah, well, I can’t write a dancing scene, lmao. Let’s just say, Teto did it amazingly, and Jan… just went wild with his jungle moves. Neither of them didn’t held the other during the dance, so yeah, they didn’t count.
“See the post above and read the last sentence,” Jin remarked.
“What sentence?” Mash asked.
“You don’t see it? Never mind about it,” The intern sighed.
“Jack. And Frank. Your turn,” Mash announced.
“Hooboy, it’s time for me to finally shine!” Franky said. “Let me show you guys these dance moves!”
Franky and Jack approached the stage in style. They’re just doing Tango dance as Franky was guiding his partner, gaining a lot of impressive brow from the spectators.
“Damn, he’s doing great,” Eve smirked.
“I can tell,” Gov nodded.
“Wah, that looks very hard!” Jan complained.
After a few minutes of dance choreography, it came to an end with Franky and Jack finishing with a bow, earning a few rounds of applause.
“Alright… That was… Okay?” Mash admitted, followed by Jin with a nod.
“WHAT?!” Franky gasped. “I went through all of the efforts for this!”
“You’re rigging this game,” Jack said.
“Nah,” Mash shrugged. “I just dunno stuff about dance.”
“That’s not an excuse—”
“Where’s the last guy? That blindfold man and a lizard?” Mash inquired.
A few minutes later.
“Okay… where’s… Gojo and Gex—”
“WE’RE HEEEEEERE!”
They looked at the entrance door burst open, revealing Gojo and Gex riding their roller skates.
“What are you two idiots doing now?” Gov deadpanned.
“Dancing, duh,” Gex cackled. “It wasn’t easy to find these pair of skates through the junkyard.”
“Yup, and I have a pair of eagle eyes to find them easily,” Gojo bragged.
“You have your blindfold on…” Teto reminded.
“Who cares? You’re going to see our best moves in the century!” Gojo laughed, giving a high-five with his lizard buddy.
“Let’s start, bro!”
The pair skated toward the dance floor. Pretty much those pairs and Jack and Franky were the only pairs to be comfortable doing the dating contest; everyone else… yeah.
So far, the recent pair is actually doing a somewhat decent job at dancing with their roller skates. Gaining an impression.
“Damn, those two got hands,” Jack giggled. “Way better than us.”
“Hey!” Franky took that personally.
The pair decides to take their dance to the next level by having Gojo hold Gex in the air as he is skating.
“I almost thought they were ice skating,” Gov blinked. “That’s actually impressive… Even they were pretending.”
“Hell, I’m kinda jealous of them,” Franky pouted.
“Let’s do our final slam—”
Slip.
Gojo had miscalculated his move and began to slip while carrying Gex.
“Oh, shit, I think we slipped—”
The pair crashed into the nearby jukebox, cringing everyone.
“A big disaster like there, my man,” Gex joked.
“Haha, well, that happened,” Gojo got up.
All of them were unimpressed.
“Okay, we got a joke!” Gex stood up. “That will probably boost our score!”
“And here we see my boy, Gex, croaking!” Gojo smirked.
Gex just pulled a revolver and shot himself in the head.
“Suicide isn’t funny,” Eve deadpanned.
“Well, I’m still alive!” Gex woke up, suddenly scaring everyone.
“I’d have to say no to that,” The host stated, making the pair frown.
“Anyway, UM, how was our performance?” Gojo kindly asked everyone.
Everyone was happy until they crashed, so they just changed their opinion.
“That’s the gayest thing I’ve ever seen,” Zoro admitted.
Gex: “
”
Silence.
“ENMA!”
SLANG!
The whole island was cut into two parts, sending the whole island into panic, and he’s pretty much a worse criminal than Dot or Power.
“Hey.”
Zoro snapped back into reality when Nam-ra snapped her finger to gain his attention.
“Are you… Alright?” Nam-ra asked worriedly.
“Uh, yeah,” Zoro coughed. “Still. Fuck you for that.”
Gex was snickering with Gojo.
(CONFESSIONAL) GOJO:
“Eh, forget that! We’re going to peak in this dating contest. You guys just haven’t seen it yet.”
Break time.
“What are we doing in the final stage of this dating stage?” Teto asked.
“Usually, the date ends with a kiss, or you can take it further—” Gex was smacked by Nam-ra. “Ouchie, ouch, lady!”
“Final stage is here.”
“What? The break time only lasted for a minute!” Gex complained.
“I know,” Mash said.
“Kiss with your partner,” Mash stated.
“Ooooh… Shit, should’ve seen that coming,” Zoro froze.
“Who’s first…?”
Silence.
“You know, I’m starting to wonder why you didn’t consider switching the challenge,” Jin asked Mash.
“I feel like it’s too late to change, sorry,” Mash sighed.
“Do you… want to…?” He asked Gov and Eve.
“Nope.”
“NO!”
“Absolutely not. I already have my boyfriend,” Eve surrendered.
“Well, same. I have a loving wife and daughter,” Gov groaned.
“Okay, no point… Jan and Teto?”
The pair shook their heads.
“Jan’s not going wild on this,” Jan huffed.
“That’s two skips… Nam-ra and… Zoro?” Mash asked.
“Can we just hug?” Nam-ra calmly said.
“Uh… Maybe,” Mash replied.
“Okay, cool,” Zoro replied awkwardly.
The pair just hugged.
“This is weird,” Jin sighed.
“This whole challenge is weird. Why would Chris come up with that?” Teto pouted.
“We’re blaming Chris now?” Gov raised his brow.
“Yes.”
Silence.
“Alright, that was Chris’s fault,” Gov replied with a nod.
“Franky and Jack. You’re next,” Mash announced.
“Okay, okay, okaaaay, this will be the first time I will kiss a girl,” Franky said.
“We can hear you,” Eve stated.
“Shush,” He silenced the lady. “LET’S DO THIS, JACK! SHOW ‘EM HOW IT WORKS!”
Jack nodded in excitement. As she leaned in, he reached for her hand. He seems to have forgotten that the hand he was using was holding a pocket-sized lighter.
He had planned for the kiss to be a smooth ‘spark of love,’ and he forgot it was still on. The moment their hands touched—
FWOOOMH!
Jack’s entire hair, giant halo-shaped loops, ignited like a neon bonfire. He was entirely clueless because he had his eyes shut until the woman screamed.
“What the heck—”
“WAAAAAAAAAAH—FUCK, FUCK, FUCCCCK, I’M BURNING—” Jack screamed in pain.
“OH, SHIT—”
“How the fuck did that happen?” Gov yelled. “You had one job!”
“Quick, we gotta save her!” Eve ordered.
“JAN FOUND A SOLUTION!” He discovered a water bucket nearby.
He picked up an empty fruit bowl without realizing instead and threw it toward the burning girl, knocking her out cold.
“Erm, oops,” Jan froze.
“Yo, guys, check out our kiss!” Gex derailed their mass panic event. “Are you ready?!”
“Sure, bro! Anything for immunity!” Gojo cheered.
The pair leaned down and kissed passionately in a dip style while slow dancing, earning a few shocks and confusion from the other “couples.”
Jack was still burning and out cold.
Pretty much everyone was distracted by the final pair kissing, ignoring the whole problem of Jack’s burning body.
“Whoa, what the heck?!” Franky reacted in shock.
The two finished and laughed at the rest.
“What’s wrong, dude? Is it wrong to have two homies kissing each other?” Gex refuted.
“Yeah, we’re just a happy gay couple, nothing wrong with it,” Gojo rolled his blindfolded eyes. “So, Mash. We won, right?”
“Since Gojo and Gex were the only ones who kissed, I guess they won the prize,” Mash said.
“Haha, nice job, bro!” Gex celebrated with his partner. “Good to have ya as a partner.”
“You two aren’t dating, right?” Nam-ra asked.
“We were just acting,” Gojo reminded with a grin. “For the challenge.”
“Yeah, to be honest, we were playing around,” Gex admitted.
“To determine the losing two pairs…” Mash was trying to say something.
“What’s this weird smell, huh? Why is the room getting hotter?” Zoro interrupted the hots and covered his nose.
They looked toward the source. Jack was still unconscious and on fire, sending everyone into panic mode.
“Uh, Jack’s still on fire,” Teto pointed out.
“Is there a fire extinguisher nearby?” Nam-ra asked the host.
“Uh… Never brought one,” Mash admitted nervously.
“WHY!?”
“Look, uh, how would I expect there would be a fire in a simple dating contest…?” Mash murmured. “Let alone someone setting the other person on fire,” He glared at Franky.
“What about water? We just wipe those with the water bucket,” Jan claimed.
“You threw an empty bowl, remember…?” Mash pointed out.
“Waaaa! This is infuriating!” Jan cried.
“OKAY, I’LL GET THE BUCKET!” Teto declared.
And then she just fumbled and knocked the water bucket, losing their chance to save Jack.
“Oh my god,” Gov facepalmed.
“Dude, we gotta do something, or she’s dying, and we’ll face murder charges!” Franky screamed.
“That was your fault for setting her on fire!” Teto yelled at him.
“Yeah, hold on, lemme solve this,” Mash was slightly panicking.
He cracked his knuckles and took off his coat, and began to swing really aggressively that it blew the fire away, including everyone who was in his crossfire.
BAM!
The whole disco party was destroyed after they flew and burst through the wall.
“Dude… THAT WAS SO COOL!” Gex praised his host.
“No, the fuck it isn’t!” Teto complained.
“Awesome, can we duel?!” Gojo offered a handshake.
“Uh. No,” He declined the man’s offer politely before looking at Franky. “Frank… well, since you set your date on fire… Your pair comes in the bottom two.”
Franky kneeled and wailed in agony.
“And… that counts for Teto and Jan… You two… Performed badly. No offense,” Mash bowed, asking for forgiveness.
“Aw, what?!” Teto gasped.
“WAAAAAAAA?” The red Geki dropped his jaw.
“Huh, I could’ve sworn we would lose this,” Gov hummed.
“Dammit, why?! How did YOU two win?!” Teto pointed at Gov and Eve. “I swear, you two weren’t even trying!”
“I guess winning the dinner date helps,” Eve sighed.
“Basically, that,” Jin revealed, making the losing pair groan.
“There won’t be voting tonight because those pairs… will face a tiebreaker where the winner of each pair gets to stay,” Mash instructed.
“No voting???” Teto lowered her jaw. “Man, that’s… okay?”
“Four of you need some time to prepare before tonight,” Mash announced.
“Can I leave now?” Jin asked. “I don’t see the person I wanted to look for.”
“Yeah, sure,” Mash nodded.
Jin sighed in relief and left the area, no longer working for Mash.
(CONFESSIONAL) FRANKY:
“Oh, maaaan, I’m so screwed as hell! Jack won’t forgive me for this! Heck, that’s one more love interest I had lost!”
Franky, Teto, and Jan gathered at the elimination campfire. Mash raised a brow when he realized something was missing.
“Franky, where are your glasses?” Mash asked.
“Huh—oh, it’s in my shirt pocket,” Franky thanked him and put it on.
“Shouldn’t you be asking about Jack instead?” Jan tilted his head.
“Ah, that, uhhhhhh,” Mash froze in his spot, trying to come up with something. “Each pair must fight each other to determine their safety, so… Franky and Jack battle each other, then Teto and Jan…”
Teto and Jan looked at each other.
“And… Jack? Is she just out of the game now because she’s a literal toast?” Teto wanted to know.
“Ah, her, yeah…” Mash gulped. “She’s out.”
“Huh?” Franky said in confusion.
“Okay, I guess… Frank automatically wins the tiebreaker due to Jack’s in this state,” Mash coughed, making Franky celebrate his win by doing absolutely nothing.
(CONFESSIONAL) FRANKY:
“I’m safe!!! At what cost…?”
“Yup, Teto and Jack will be fighting tonight,” Mash announced.
“Waaah? We just got along with each other, Jan didn’t want to betray her!” Jan snarled.
“We only interacted during the challenge contest,” Teto huffed.
“What’s the challenge?” Jan asked.
He pointed at the giant bear. Both of the losing pair's eyes widened.
“YOU EXPECT US TO THROW HANDS AGAINST THE PREDATOR?!” Teto yelled.
“No, I was asking if you can lure the bear away from my… hut,” Mash inquired. “If one of you drove them away… You’re safe, and the other goes home.”
Jan already goes for an action, and does some moves to a bored bear. Too bored to kill Jan. A few minutes had passed, and the bear still hadn’t moved.
“Man, this is how you gotta lure the bear away,” Teto sighed.
“With what? Food?” Jan answered.
TUSK!
Teto just poked the bear with the sharpest stick ever, causing the bear to wake up and scream in agony. Once the bear looked at the culprit, it chased after her, who screamed in fear.
“BUT IT WAS WORTH IT!!!!!!!” Teto was still running until she disappeared into the woods along with the bear.
“Eh… That means… Jan is going home tonight,” Mash announced.
“Aw, man! Jan didn’t even get to show his wild side!” Jan complained.
“Yeah, sorry… man, it’s the rules…” Mash apologized.
“Dang, okay! At least Jan had a wild adventure this season. Looking forward to the next one!” Jan grinned as he hopped into a boat that literally just appeared from nowhere.
Oh, yeah. Franky is still here.
“Where’s Jack?” He asked.
“She’s here,” Mash stated.
Jack was the last person to arrive. She was in a full cast and had to use a wheelchair to move. Obviously sour.
“Uh, yo, uhhh, we cool, right?” Franky giggled nervously.
Jack responded by summoning her iron pumpkin and bashing his head before wheeling herself into the boat.
“OUUUUUUUUUUUUGH!”
Frank screamed in pain as Jan helped the girl
“Dude, I got cucked by a jungle boy?!” Franky whined.
“Well, that’s… that. Jan and Jack have left the show, and we’re merging now. Disbanding the Wolves and the Bears,” Mash announced. “With eight campers remaining, who will be declared the winner of this season? Find out in the next episode of… Total… Drama…! Gaiden…!”
Mash was cleaning the area after he had just hired a bearded man wearing a tin pot as a hat he had randomly found in the town not too long ago.
Rattle, rattle.
“Who’s there?” Mash turned back sternly.
More rattling.
“Come out,” Mash said.
“RAGGGGH!”
He had appeared in front of the host.
“Are you the swamp monster that Gex brought up earlier?” He asked the ‘monster.’
“What? There ain’t no monster!” The man took off the seaweed and moss from his body, revealing himself to be Chef Hatchet. “I’m Chef Hatchet!”
“Oh… Do I know you?” Mash asked the chef.
“Haw?! You got no memory or something?! I’m Chef Hatchet!” The chef introduced. “Do you remember me in Hawaii?!”
“Yeah, I’m in Hawaii…” Mash added.
“You’re not in Hawaii! Did the eyepatch man get your plumbing ass fired, too?!” The chef demanded.
“Oh, you mean Eyepatch Pops?” Mash began to think really hard. “Sorry. I don’t remember you.”
“Whatever, I’ve been betrayed by that pirate-wannabe man. Like, I hired his ass, and he fired me?!” The chef complained. “That's an immediate quit. I’m looking for Chris—”
“Chris McLean?”
“YES! Have you seen him?” The chef asked. “I’ve swam all the way here to reach for him when I heard the rumor that he’s hosting on this island.”
“Uh… Probably?” Mash shrugged.
“Probably?”
“Sorry, man. I tend to forget stuff,” Mash admitted.
“How can you forget simple things like that?!”
“I think you’re scaring the locals. You need to leave,” Mash whispered.
“OH, I’LL SHOW YOU—” The chef threatened.
Mash decided to lock in and folded him into a baseball, then tossed him into the air before picking a tree log as a baseball bat, hitting a homerun against him when he began to drop, which launched him pretty far away.
“That guy was weird. I’m glad I took care of him,” Mash yawned.

Notes:
Yup, we’re already at the merge, lmao. It’s time to get stuck into thinking for the next merge challenge. Also, see guys?! I didn't forget about Chef Hatchet's fate...! And... he's gone again.
This episode was originally named ‘Franky Sets Sweet Jack on Fire,’ and you get the point of what happened to her. CactusJuice can have the title back for Total Drama Emerald because I think it's better anyway, plus Sweet Dee is in there.
AND this episode is originally gonna be stealing TVs as their challenge, where double elimination still occurs, but Power and Jan go home instead. If Power survived the last elimination. Yeah, I gotta set Jan's fate because I have no idea what to do with him without Power. And Jack because it's just funny to see Franky fumble his other shot with a girl, despite them being in alliance for two episodes.
