Total Drama All Stars: Redux

Chapter 4: Food Fright

Summary:

The contestants face a challenge that involves filling their stomachs and surviving a nightmarish obstacle course without throwing up. While a new hero is given the welcome she never imagined, a new villain quickly comes under fire from her team.

Notes:

Well...a lot's happened in the year since the last chapter. The second season of the reboot and third season of Disventure Camp happened, I finally got into DC (awesome fan series btw) and am eagerly awaiting S4, I got a job in Japan until next summer, and planned two whole Total Drama/Disventure Camp AUs that I had to restrain myself from writing about until I finished the stories I have so far. And failed.
I'm on a newly-found writing binge to finish all my WIPs, but make no promises on timeframes.

(See the end of the chapter for more notes.)

Chapter Text

Last time on a very special episode of ‘Total Drama All-Stars’:

It was all about teamwork...or lack thereof. Harsh, Courtney…

The challenge, an epic leech-ball battle, brought out everyone’s inner psycho – especially Scott and Jo’s – but it was the former’s same old self-sabotage that got him the flush.

And an unexpected act of valour inspired our first switcheroo. Gwen’s temporary switch to the Heroes was made permanent, and Courtney took her place on the Villains. And with the former lovebirds back on the same team, it’s gonna get nasty!

Has the Heroes’ string of losses come to an end? Find out now

on Total…

Drama…

All Stars!

 


 

The rain fell heavily outside the cabins, most of it leaking through the crappy roofs and into the rooms. And despite being on the top bunk, Alejandro was protected by a thick sleeping bag, as was Duncan underneath him. Lightning wasn’t quite as lucky, however, getting soaked through.

Regardless, the three were still able to sleep through the cold well enough…until their door was tossed open with a loud *THUD*!

All three jolted awake to see Chef stood in the door, a large black bin bag slung over one shoulder.

The three only had time to yell in fear before being coated with powdered gruel, the generated clouds sending all three into a coughing fit.

 

 

- - - [CONFESSIONAL – Duncan] - - -

“Ugh, gross!” He wiped his face off using the toilet paper. “Can’t believe I’m saying this, but I wish Scott was still here to eat all this crud!”

 

- - - [CONFESSIONAL – Lightning] - - -

He contently ate some of the gruel off his finger. “I don’t see why they’re complainin’! This stuff’s no different to protein!”

 

 

Alejandro spat out a mouthful.

“Disgusting! I bet the girls are not treated this cruelly…”

“AAAHH!”

“I stand corrected,” he smirked.

 

 

- - - [CONFESSIONAL – Courtney] - - -

“I wish Chef would pass on the whole bed & breakfast thing and let us starve instead – it’d be more humane.” She flicked the empty toilet roll. “It’s bad enough with the leaky roof and…” she groaned, “in-room entertainment…”

 

 

“Well if it weren’t for me, the team wouldn’t have got past Bubble Boy’s first ambush!”

“And who’s the one who lost it for us, huh?”

“Big talk coming from the one who was taken out by Lindsay! Fricking Lindsay!”

While the back-and-forth continued between Heather and Jo, Courtney wisely stayed under her covers, forcing her earplugs deeper into her ears.

“Why do I have to deal with this? I don’t even belong over here…”

“Oh, get off your high horse.”

She didn’t even notice their argument had ended, nor how loud she’d actually been talking, until Jo forcefully ripped the covers off of her. Heather, still lying on the top bunk, peered her head over the edge, both girls boring straight into her.

“Honestly, I’ve been waiting for this since season two.”

“What?”

“Don’t play dumb. Using a human shield is something I would do.”

“And right after you started getting all buddy-buddy again? Harsh…”

Courtney sat upright. “Oh, shut up! So that was the wrong move, but that doesn’t make me anything like you two--”

Jo’s fist banged against the bunks.

“You’re here. You’re a Villain now. Get over it!”

“What are you gonna do? Sue again?”

Face reddening, Courtney just grit her teeth and glared at them.

“Just pull your weight and don’t sabotage us, and we won’t have any problems,” Jo dropped her covers back over her. “Then again, maybe you should give it a go just to prove our point.”

Heather laughed along with her, jumping down from her bunk to freshen up, leaving Courtney stewing under her bedsheets.

 

 

Still in her long black nightdress, Gwen descended the ornate spa hotel staircase. She hadn’t slept the greatest, being kept awake by Lindsay and Sierra gossiping away about…something, but at the very least she’d managed to sleep off her anger from the day before. No mistake, she was still angry at Courtney and Duncan, but at least they weren’t “dead to her” anymore.

Pulling the door to the dining room open, she was a bit unnerved to see it pitch black…even more so when she heard the excited chatter bouncing off the walls…

“Surprise!”

And leapt back in surprise as the lights suddenly flicked on, the other three Heroes (sans Cameron) stood in front of a large buffet table. Large balloons and a poorly constructed banner were scattered around the dining hall.

“Welcome to the Hero team, Gwen!”

Still too taken aback to react, Lindsay swooped in with a party hat and party horn, pushing the former onto her head and sticking the latter in her mouth. Her gasp of surprise drew a long horn sound out of it.

 

 

- - - [CONFESSIONAL – Gwen] - - -

“Back in season one, this would have been my idea of a nightmare. But for some weird reason, I actually don’t mind this.” Glancing at the cake in her hand, she took a bite out of it before humming in contentment. “Huh. Not bad.”

 

 

“Gwen, on Team Hero! The fans will lose it!”

She tensed up a little at Sierra’s mention of the fans, but was able to quickly suppress it as Brick approached her.

“On behalf of the Heroic Hamsters,” Brick approached her, extending a hand, “allow me to welcome you to our team!”

Gwen eventually accepted, shaking it awkwardly.

“Uh, sure…thanks…”

“Let’s sing the Welcome Song!” Lindsay chirped in.

“Try it and I’ll shove this down your cakehole.”

“There’s the season one Gwen we were missing!” Sierra was immediately in her face, fingers hovering over her phone keyboard. “So, how do you feel finally being recognised as a Hero?”

“I…uh, what?”

“You know! After everything that happened on TDA – the break-up, the sabotage, the Love Triangle – after all that, how does it feel for someone on the show to finally acknowledge you as anything other than a Villain?”

“Hey, Sierra,” Lindsay tapped her on the shoulder. “Maybe that’s a little much…”

“Agreed.” Brick approached them. “We’re trying to make Gwen feel welcome on the team, not scare her away.”

“Aww…but I haven’t been able to post anything to my blog in days!” She skulked away towards the buffet table, Lindsay hovering behind her.

“Maybe some cake will take your mind off it?”

“Ooh! I should save some for Cameron!”

Brick noticed how tense Gwen had suddenly gotten. “Is everything okay?”

“Yeah, I’m used to it by now. But thanks for reigning her in.”

“No worries! Now let’s dig in to some breakfast!”

 

_______________________

 

“Okay, now that the weather’s cleared up, get your waterlogged butts to the beach for today’s beatdown! I mean…challenge!”

As the players started towards the meeting area, most of the Heroes stuck together as one unit, with Gwen still trailing a little further behind. She considered catching up to them, until a voice from the cabins caught her attention.

“Gwen! Wait up!”

Watching as Courtney started running towards her, Gwen groaned and picked up the pace, averting eye contact.

“Gwen, please, it was an accident!”

“Save your incredibly bad breath, Court-leech. If anything, I should be thanking you.”

Courtney blinked. “Really?”

“Yep.” Her face shifted to a dark glare. “For proving I was wasting my time worrying about you. So yeah, thanks for saving me from a whole season of embarrassing myself.”

“Wait!”

But she’d already walked off, leaving Courtney sighing in despair.

“More trouble in paradise, Courtney?”

Heather appeared next to her, smirking. Courtney didn’t say anything, keeping her eyes trained on the floor. Heather slipped an arm over her shoulder in faux comfort, walking the two of them towards the challenge.

 

 

- - - [CONFESSIONAL – Courtney] - - -

“Jeez, why can’t she just put her feelings aside for a few seconds and listen to my point of view? It was an accident! Something that just happened in the spur of the moment! Why can’t Gwen see that and accept my…” Her eyes slowly widened, as if struck with a revelation. “Oh.”

 

 

- - - [CONFESSIONAL – Gwen] - - -

“Seriously, how was a girl that oblivious even being considered as a lawyer?! Is she still dead to me? No. But if she doesn’t stop trying to force her apologies down my throat, she will be…”

 

 

Unbeknownst to Gwen as she was venting in the confessional, a certain Villain was listening in the whole time.

 

 

- - - [CONFESSIONAL – Jo] - - -

“Now that Gwen isn’t being distracted by Duncan or Courtney, she’s going to be much more focused on the game – and she couldn’t have brought that to the Villains’ team because…?” She cleared her throat. “Anyway, I’m not going to let Courtney drag us down instead, so will have to just make sure the Heroes lose. Somehow.”

 

 

“Welcome, contestants! Before we get started, let’s bring back last night’s exile – Cameron!”

A helicopter lowered from the sky, Cameron being held just underneath it before being dropped to earth.

“Okay, A – how are you still alive after a night on the island? And B,” Chris covered his nose, “why do you smell so rank?!”

“Simple: between seasons I read up on wilderness survival tips.”

Clad in some sort of fire hydrant disguise, Cameron shuffled close behind a bear that occasionally turned to look behind him. After several instances of stopping and starting, the bear eventually shrugged and…

Well, we all know bears poop in the woods, but in case you were ever wondering if they pee too…

“If you douse yourself in the, um, ‘scent’ of the most vicious animal in the forest, then all the creatures will give you the utmost respect!”

“Not all creatures,” Duncan added, plugging his nose with the rest of the contestants.

“Disgusting revelations aside, it’s challenge time! Chef didn’t have time to cook Team Loser’s breakfast this morning because he was busy making these!”

On the screen behind him, the footage showed two massive stacks of…

“Pancakes! That’s right, it’s eating contest time! Each team member gets one minute to scarf up as much pancake-y goodness as they can. When a Hero’s eating time is up, they hear this…”

An angelic chorus played through the speakers.

“…and the Villains get this.”

A shrill vulture screech played.

“Then you just have to race through a nausea inducing obstacle course. It's a nod to the Mad Skills Course from last season – the toughest parts, anyway. First you gotta get past the Bouncy Butts – they’re a real pain! Then it’s onto the Retching Rolling Pin, and a swift kick from the Grape Crusher sends you flying into the lake to finish.”

“Question,” Brick raised a hand before pointing to a large circular object in the distance, suspended on platforms over the lake, “what is that thing used for?”

“Oh, the Salad Spinner? That’s a little bonus obstacle we decided to throw in! Land in there after the Grape Crusher, and it’s almost guaranteed to make you hurl! Well, based on our tests with the interns, anyway. Start spewing chunks at any point in the challenge, and you’re benched. But, if a teammate successfully gets through the Salad Spinner without puking, you can bring one of your benched teammates back into the game. Once your pancake’s toast, just complete the obstacle course – Salad Spinner included – one last time to win. Ready…set…scarf!”

He blew his airhorn, though only Sierra ran up to the stack. On the Villains’ side…

“We need a team leader,” Alejandro said, “and I think it should be you.” He glanced up towards Heather.

Jo, Lightning and Courtney all protested this declaration.

“Fine. You go first, but you better have a big appetite!”

“As you wish.” Still stood on his hands, he ran towards the pancake and also started eating, doing surprisingly well upside down and with no hands. Though after a few bites off the bottom-most pancake later, he quickly felt something skittering along his arms and towards the rest of his body.

“Ah! Fire ants!”

“Oh yeah, there might be some booby traps and feisty ingredients in those pain-cakes,” Chris chuckled.

Meanwhile, nearing the end of her turn, Sierra discovered something for herself.

“Ooh! Are those blueberries?” She immediately scarfed them down.

“I’ve never heard of fish eyes being called that, but sure.”

*BLERGH!*

“And Sierra is benched. Already! Who’s up next?”

“I’m on it!” Cameron ran ahead to the encouragement of his teammates, as a Vulture screech sounded over the speakers.

“Eating time’s over for Alejandro! Now, it’s beatin’ time!”

Alejandro made quick work of the first obstacles, as his teammates called varying levels of ‘encouragement’.

“You can do it!”

“Do not throw up!”

Within seconds he was hand-walking across the rollers, rivalling Leshawna’s log rolling from season one.

“Ooh! Very nice moves from Alejandro! And he continues to impress on the rolling pins!”

“Yes!” Heather cheered, quickly catching herself before anyone noticed.

Eventually he reached the Grape Crusher…which swung down and kicked him dead centre of his stomach. Yet by some miracle only achievable by Alejandro, he kept it down…up?...and crashed hard into the side of the Salad Spinner before hitting the water.

He resurfaced pretty quickly…right as it looked like something else was about to.

The onlooking Vultures held their breath, anxiously waiting…

And eventually he swallowed it back down, to their immense relief.

Chris chuckled. “Tastes so nice, he ate it twice!”

 

 

- - - [CONFESSIONAL – Alejandro] - - -

One arm was tightly wrapped around his stomach. “Chris will pay for laughing at me!”

“I sincerely doubt it, Al,” he said over the intercom, to his chagrin.

 

 

“Sparky, you’re next,” Heather pointed, waiting for Lightning to get his head in the game and away from his apparent stomach pains.

“Argh…screw this gruel – this ain’t nothin’ like protein…!”

“Come on, Jackson,” Jo channelled her inner sports coach, “you’re not gonna let a little stomach cramp hold you back, are you? Start chowing already!”

Hearing that, Lightning cleared his throat and straightened up. “Sha-roger!”

Meanwhile, Cameron’s eating time was interrupted by the chirping of a raccoon that quickly landed on him. However, it didn’t take too long for it to recognise the scent coming from him. Driven to puking, it scurried off.

“Run, Cameron!” Brick called.

Standing over the balls, Cameron gulped. “My weight divided by perfect angle time fear of failure…here goes!”

He leapt.

“AAAAHHHHH…”

And faceplanted into the mud.

 

Back at the Villains’ pancakes, Lightning was starting to slow down significantly. Not that the other Villains cared to notice.

“Why would I go next? I’m team captain!”

“Because I said so!”

“How about you do it? Prove your loyalty to your new team!”

“Enough bickering, ladies,” Duncan remarked. “I’ll do it.”

 

 

- - - [CONFESSIONAL – Duncan] - - -

“It’s bad enough I’m gonna be finishing this challenge with a stomach-ache – I’d rather not have a headache on top of that!”

 

 

Cameron finally arrived at the Grape Crusher…and was promptly sent flying over the Salad Spinner and into a tree by the Peanut Gallery. Sierra was quick to check on him after his crash landing.

“Nice!” Chris laughed. “Next!”

Gwen turned to Brick. “Mind if I go?”

“Of course not!”

 

Lightning took a step on the first rolling pin, only for it to immediately short-circuit and grind to a halt.

“You break it, you buy it, Lightning!”

Still groaning in pain, he crossed to the other side – both pins restarting immediately after finishing – and arrived at the Grape Crusher.

“Oof…Lightning’s gonna need to go on a diet after this!”

The boot swung down, barely nudging him forward a few inches.

“Think you can do any better than that?”

Rolling his eyes, Chris pulled out a much more ominous looking remote with a devilish grin. One push of the button swung the boot back almost 270 degrees, revealing a pair of jetpacks to up the speed.

That was enough to get Lightning moving, but still not enough to land him in the Salad Spinner. He slammed into the side and was able to grab the top for a few moments, only to slide down to the surface underneath.

“And Lightning is safe to eat again!”

 

The Villains once again offered ‘encouragement’ to Duncan as he made quick work of eating.

“This is easy!”

Though he was quick to eat his words as a mousetrap clamped itself over his lips.

“You were saying?”

His ex, meanwhile, looked like she’d hurl before she even hit the course.

 

 

- - - [CONFESSIONAL – Gwen] - - -

Her stomach rumbled, both arms desperately clutched around it.

“Nnngh…I think that was too much cake this morning…”

 

 

The Hamsters’ signal sounded just before the Vultures’. Gwen forced one last mouthful down as Duncan yanked the mousetrap off of him and ran ahead. But before Gwen could follow, a crab jumped out of the stack and pinched her hand.

“I’m not going after Duncan!”

“Oh, yes you are! Because if you don’t and we lose, guess where you’ll be headed…”

“Easy for you to say – you haven’t even hit the course yet!”

“Just do it, Courtney,” Alejandro interjected. “Every second you two waste bickering is another second the Heroes gain over us.”

“Fine!” Jo stormed away from of all three of them towards the woods. “If you’re going to keep whining, guess I’ll take this one. You better figure out who goes next by the time I get back, else both of you are gone!”

“She says going in the opposite direction!” Heather called.

“If you don’t mind, I’d like to clear some space down there before doing this,” was all she said in reply before briefly vanishing.

“The Villains are two-thirds done,” Chris announced, “but it looks like the Heroes need to up their appetite, big time!”

 

Duncan successfully cleared the first ball, but slipped on the second one.

“Oof!” He hit the mud. “You have to do better than that, Chris!”

On cue, the ball he was sat under lowered all the way down until it crushed him.

Soon after, Gwen arrived, cheeks full to bursting. For all the pain it seemed to take, she somehow managed to clear that stage successfully, albeit struggling more than ever to keep the pancake down.

“Woah, babe, you don’t look so good…”

Not dignifying the ‘babe’ with any kind of response, Gwen simply pointed to his now massively swollen lips and moved on, leaving Duncan to check for himself.

“…Yeow!”

 

 

- - - [CONFESSIONAL – Duncan] - - -

“I’m not one to care about my looks, but man, check out my lips!” He pointed to them. “It’s like two worms having a street fight down there!”

 

 

“Villain Duncan is just behind!” He managed to hold his own on the rolling pins. Meanwhile on the other pin…

“And hero Gwen’s head is turning a new shade of green…”

Her hands came up to her mouth.

“Gwen? Are you okay?” Duncan asked. “Come on, you can do it!”

She could not.

The pins and Duncan were almost immediately painted a dank shade of green as Gwen’s new-found momentum from hurling flung her off.

“Aw, sick!”

“Oh! And Gwen gives the ‘Hurl of Shame’ new meaning! Hit the bench!”

 

Once again, the Grape Crusher missed the Salad Spinner, Duncan also landing in the water just next to it.

“Both teams need another eater!”

“Where the hell is Jo?!”

As Lightning said this, Jo ran back out from the woods to the pancakes.

“Let’s do this!”

 

 

- - - [CONFESSIONAL – Jo] - - -

“I didn’t really need to use the bathroom,” using the sleeve of her hoodie, she reached into her pocket and withdrew a fistful of leaves. “Just needed to grab a few things to help us win the challenge…”

 

 

Brick looked over to Lindsay, the pair being the only Heroes left. “How big is your appetite?”

“Not huge, but I could try…”

“Good call,” Cameron offered. “Lindsay, you do what you can, and Brick can bring it home!”

“Okay!”

Lindsay ran forward, this time eating from the other side of the stack. Unseen to her, Jo let out a grunt of annoyance. Her plan had been to sabotage that side of the pancakes so there’d be less of a chance of getting spotted, but she figured, idiot or not, it would have to wait until she was out of the way.

Both girls made surprisingly easy work of their pancakes, Jo managing to whittle it down just a little more, when the Heroes’ alarm sounded.

Lindsay glanced up, ready to get moving, when her attention was drawn to a crackling sound. As soon as she noticed the source, a strong explosion came from the pancakes, sending her flying towards the Spinner.

Again, she missed it, instead landing on top of the panel that controls it.

Once she’d gone from sight, the Villains’ eating time ran out, letting Jo slip her assortment of sabotage items into the leftover Heroes’ pancakes.

Her athleticism meant that by the time she was also sent flying a country mile away from the Salad Spinner, Lindsay still hadn’t gotten off of the control panel. Jo landed roughly on top of her, both girls rolling off of it…with one of them accidentally flipping some switch on the way down…

 

“Looks like the Villains are about to taste victory! And some old shoes…we put some in their pancakes.”

“Courtney…” Scowling, Heather pointed to the pancakes.

“Ugh, whatever! At least I’m contributing!”

“Take it home, Brick!”

“Sir, yes, sir!”

Both players ran ahead and quickly got started. Still a little miffed from Heather, Courtney was a fair bit slower.

“Don’t think,” Brick murmured, “just eat!”

Despite still being left with two full pancakes, Brick was quick to start scarfing it all down, to Cameron’s surprise. He eventually got a small itch on his hand, but ignored it in favour of the challenge.

Just like he ignored the loud splat that came from the Villains’ stack.

“Kyaah! Green jelly!”

Courtney began running around waving her arms frantically in an effort to get rid of the jelly that now covered her.

“Get it off me! Get it off me!!

Lightning looked in confusion. “Why is she freakin’ out so much?”

“Season one!” Sierra called from the bench. “Phobia Factor challenge! She’s terrified of the stuff!”

“The Heroes have stormed back – it’s neck-and-neck!”

“You hear that, Courtney?” Heather shouted. “Get back to eating!”

The itch on Brick’s hand had now grown much greater in intensity. Glancing down at it – not stopping eating all the while – he noticed it was an inflamed red and swelling rapidly.

And it felt like another itch was forming in his throat at the same time.

“Oh no…”

A newly returned Lindsay and Jo watched Brick starting to struggle…to Jo’s amusement.

 

 

- - - [CONFESSIONAL – Jo] - - -

“If Corporal Leaky’s already eaten that poison ivy I planted in their stack, his throat should be too closed up to eat anything else. Not to mention those pukeworthy berries I found next to them. Victory is ours.”

 

 

Unfortunately for Jo, that wasn’t enough for Brick to stop. He kept eating and eating until the entire stack was gone. Fortunately, it seemed his throat only began swelling at the end.

And just in the nick, as the time ran out.

Hearing the signal, Brick ran ahead of Courtney. Scowling, she picked up the speed and finished her plate in seconds.

“Courtney’s finished the Villains’ pancake. The race to finish is on!”

Although Brick created a massive gap between him and her, the slowly building difficulty to breathe slowed him down a lot as he neared the end. Enough to allow Courtney to gain on him, until both of them made it to the Grape Crusher at the same time.

One swift kick sent both of them soaring at the same time. This time, however, the pair of them landed in the Salad Spinner. As soon as they landed, the spinner started up, throwing the pair of them around like a pair of ragdolls in there. The insane speed at which it was going was enough to toss Courtney out of it, her screams ringing through the air until she landed face first in the hole of a tree.

“So that’s how it works…” Chris mused.

“Ewww!” Courtney screeched from inside the tree. “What is this stuff?! Don’t tell me it’s more green jelly!”

Chris’ previous curiosity was wiped out as he tugged at his collar, searching his pockets for a walkie-talkie. “Oof, I’m not going down again for this…” Finding it, he pushed the button on it. “Chef! Send in the decom unit!”

Almost immediately, a group of four interns in hazmat suits (only obviously interns based on the red shirts they wore over the top) had circled around where Courtney had landed. All of them were armed with hoses and large containers with various chemical symbols written on them.

Chef, in his own hazmat suit, emerged with a large reach extender, enclosing it around Courtney’s waist and pulling her out of the tree. She looked dizzy and on the verge of puking.

Still holding her aloft, Chef gave a hand signal to the interns, all four of them unleashing their hoses on Courtney, drenching her in some kind of water. And the rest of the players, just about able to see it, watched on in horror.

“Uh,” Heather grimaced, “what is happening?”

“Court-authorised measures, in case anyone comes into contact with some toxic waste leftovers. Looks like those so-called government ‘professionals’ missed a spot.”

“Wait, so this island’s still covered in toxic waste?!”

“Eh,” Chris shook his hand in a ‘so-so’ gesture, “not covered. More like there might still be one or two parts of the island that are contaminated.”

That did nothing to appease the players.

“Regardless, since Courtney was first to leave the Salad Spinner without hurling, the Vultures win the challenge!”

The other five celebrated, as Cameron and Lindsay sighed in disappointment. Over on the bench, Sierra buried her face in her hands, Gwen’s still buried in her puke bucket.

Only now did Brick finally exit the Spinner, unable to hold himself up as he hit the floor.

 

 

“You are so lucky we didn’t lose today…Heather,” Courtney smirked. “You’re welcome, by the way.”

No one was interested in responding, too busy trying to get as much distance from her as possible.

“Oh come on! I said I was decontaminated!”

“On a show like this?” Jo remarked. “Fat chance.”

“Alright, campers…”

Chris got everyone’s attention. Gwen still had the bucket by her feet, while Brick’s hand had been bandaged up, that same hand holding an ice pack to his throat…for all the good it would do.

“Time to vote someone out.”

[…]

Following the vote, Cameron, Brick and Lindsay were all safe.

“We’re down to the final two contestants – which pancake hurler will get the final marshmallow? Sierra, or Gwen?

“The last marshmallow goes to…Sierra!”

Gwen sighed as the marshmallow flew over her head. “Well, it was fun while it lasted.”

“Sorry Gwen,” Lindsay said, “but we were already a team…”

“No, I get it.” Gwen stood up. “At least you guys helped me feel like…well, not like a villain for a day.”

She offered a none too subtle glance in Courtney’s direction.

“Speaking of Villains, which winner is gonna be a loser tonight on Boney Island?”

Jo raised a hand. “I’ll do it.”

 

 

- - - [CONFESSIONAL – Jo] - - -

“I still have no idea if Scott managed to find the immunity idol again before getting the boot. I need to make sure of that before anyone else does!”

 

 

“Any last words before…you know…?”

Gwen groaned. “Just flush it already—aaaaaghhh!”

“And just like that, the Heroes are down to four! Can the Villains make it three? Find out next time…

“On Total…

“Drama…

“All Stars!”

 

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

FINAL VOTING:
Gwen – Brick, Cameron, Lindsay, Sierra (4)
Sierra – Gwen (1)

Notes:

I know, I know, move Gwen to the Heroes only to vote her off immediately – what a waste! But to be completely honest, I couldn’t think of anything else to do. She’s on a different team to Courtney and Duncan now…and with Cameron starting the chapter in exile she couldn’t exactly start bonding with him…so there wasn’t too much left to write about.
Anyway, forget what I said about Chapter 3 – this is where I’m really starting to get excited! With even less of the original cast still in the game, more changes are going to come in the following chapters…and I am so excited to write the next three!
