Total Drama Insanity

You may have heard of some of TDI's biggest stars. Gewn, LeShawna, Duncan, Heather, and so on. But what about the campers that didn't make it so far? This fanfic is a shout-out to all the Ezekiel fans out there, the Eva fans, the Noah fans, the Tyler fans, and so on. And that's just the start. Filling in the spots of the old stars are completely new campers, with unexplored personalities and unreached potential. No, you are not in a dream. You are in...

Total...

Drama...

The Competition
(If a player besides Matt makes a confessional, his/her words will be in italics, like this. For Matt, since all of his lines are in italics, confessionals made by Matt will be in bold too)

Chapter 1: Who ARE these freaks?
"Yo! Wassup!" said the host of the show, the one, the only, Chris McClean, who was, for some reason, wearing a helmet. "Chris here. You may remember me from the awesome Total Drama of Total Drama Island. Well, now we're back, and 22 campers, some old, some new, will be competing for a grand prize of... $1,000,000! Here is where the competition will take place, in the Wawanakwa Park! We've got sports fields, a lake, a 100-foot-high cliff, and SO much more! Right here! On Total Drama Insanity!"

Chris got ready to greet the 22 players that would be competing in TDIn. The first bus arrived at the park, and the first of 22 players got off.

"Tyler! Nice to see you again!" Chris excitedly said as the jock got off the bus. Ever since Total Drama Island ended, Tyler had been taking secret workout sessions with "Mr. Hatchet". He is now a full-fledged jock with massive skill, strength, and speed.

"Chris! What's happening?" replied Tyler as he high-fived Chris. Just then, Tyler's bus drove away, and the next bus reached its stop. The camper to exit was...

"Hey! If it isn't Tori herself!" said Chris as Tori got off the bus. Tori had always been a fan of the Total Drama series, and was glad to finally participate in it.

"Nice to meet you in person, Chris!" said Tori. Tyler was pretty glad that there would be new players. He was kinda sick of the guys from TDI, especially Heather. He shuddered with pain as he remembered that time she hit him with a canoe. Ouch! Luckily for Tyler, his thoughts were interrupted by the sound of the third mini-bus arrive at the park. Leaving the bus was one of Tyler's best friends from the island. Chris too was happy to see this guy.

"Cody! Glad to see you here, man!" said Chris as Cody got out of the bus and high-fived him. Since TDI had ended, Cody developed a strong brother-sister bond with Gwen, and had become more of a cool guy. He didn't lose his brains, though. Cody was every bit as smart as he was before TDI, maybe even more so. Cody was excited to see Tyler there as well. The two of them would often talk in between challenges in TDI, and were best friends at Playa des Losers.

Coming off the next bus was Sammie, a fan of TDI who made it into TDIn. As ususl, Chris greeted her when she stepped off the bus.

"Sammie! Welcome to Total Drama Insanity!"

"Thanks, Chris," replied Sammie. She immediately introduced herself to Tori.

The next one off the bus was Katie. After Total Drama Island, she began to separate from Sadie and became a great person in her own right.

"Katie! Great to see you, alone, for once," said Chris as Katie got off the bus.

"Oh I know, right?" replied Katie. "Don't get me wrong, I miss Sadie, a lot. But now that I got to know all these other awesome people, I actually feel like a whole person, even without her! But still, Sadie is still the sweetest, funnest girl I know, and I miss her more than anything in the world!"

"Yeah, okay then. Thanks for that..." replied Chris awkwardly. Luckily for him, The next bus had just arrived. The person getting off the bus was Spense, a huge TDI fan who made it onto TDIn.

"Wassup, Spense?" said Chris, as usual, as Spense was getting off of the bus.

"Oh, nothing much," replied Spense. "I'm just so PSYCHED to be here! This is going to be an awesome summer! Yeah! Sorry if I'm sounding too much like Owen..."

"Oh, it's cool, dude. Owen was fun," said Chris. Almost as if on cue, the next bus arrived. In it was the now-legendary Zeke. (you know him as Ezekiel) After TDI, Zeke was redeemed for his sexism at the start of the show. He got a shave, ditched his heavy clothes for a cool new look, and wrote a book called Bottom of the TD Food Chain about what it's like to be the first one kicked off TDI. But, now, he's back!

"Zeke! What's up?" asked Chris after Zeke got off the bus.

Zeke replied with, "Well, I think I see a bird, eh?" to which Chris and Zeke laughed hysterically. "It's good to be back, eh?" said Zeke with a feeling of excitement in his heart. He craved the Total Drama, but barely even got a taste last season. This time, however, it would be a whole lot different. And this time, there would be someone he actually knew before camp.

On the next bus was Zeke's best friend from back home, Matt. He was a big fan of TDI from the start, cheering on Zeke until his elimination. To Matt, Zeke was more like a big brother, since he was only 10 and Zeke was 16. Zeke was also the only person Matt knew who can understand Japanese, the only language that Matt spoke. Matt also has a huge crush on Gwen, something that Zeke constantly teased Matt about. At last, Matt stepped off the bus.

"Matt! Welcome to Toatl Drama Insanity!" Yelled a happy Chris to Matt.

"Thanks, dude," replied Matt. They high-fived, and then Matt went to say hey to his best friend who he missed so much!

"Zeke!" Yelled Matt.

"Matt!" They hugged.

"Buddy, It's so great to see you again!"

"Matt, I'm sure of it: This is going to be the best summer ever!"

"You could say that again." Matt and Zeke turned around to see that Spense had joined in on their talk. One group-hug later, the next bus arrived. Stepping off the bus was one of the most hated campers of TDI: Eva. Since TDI, Eva has graduated anger management, and instead uses her strength to emerge victorious in many sports. Eva now also carries around a stress ball that she'll squeeze should she get really angry. Despite being crushed by a powerful grip on many occasions, Eva's stress ball still remains good as new.

"Eva, welcome to Total Drama Insanity!" said Chris as Eva got off the bus. Apparently, someone set off Eva's temper before she got onto the bus, so she was in an awful mood. Matt tried to greet her in Japanese, but got pushed down by the iron woman. When she put down her dumbbell-filled suitcase, Cody made sure to move his foot so that it wouldn't get crushed. Good to see that he was learning. Tori and Sammie started to talk with Eva, and they quickly became pals with her.

The next one off the bus was actually Lindsay's cousin, Julie. Julie was much smarter than Lindsay, and took beauty advice from her cousin. Julie had always wanted to be on a reality show, and thanks to TDIn, she finally had her chance. As Julie stepped off the bus, Matt, Zeke, Tyler, Cody, and Spense suddenly stopped their conversation with Matt and looked in awe at Julie.

"Everyone, this is Lindsay's cousin, Julie!" said Chris.

"Thanks, Chris. Lindsay told me all about you," said Julie. She suddenly waved at Spense, who waved back at her. As she walked by the guys to put her suitcases down, every single one of them just looked at her beautiful body and face. Afterward, though, all the guys snapped out of it but Spense, who remained entranced by Julie. Julie walked up to Spense and they had a conversation that caused them to completely ignore the next bus. Coming off of the bus was another TDI veteran and a member of Team E-Scope.

Chris spoke up as he came off the bus. "Noah, welcome back, or just welcome, to Total Drama..."

"Insanity, I know, so shut up," said Noah, cutting Chris off. Jeez, Chris thought, Noah won't do much better this seasson if he continues to act mean and sadistic like that! After placing his belongings with the rest of the suitcases, Noah found Eva, and shared a reunion with her. Eva was always Noah's best friend, as she was the only one who truly understood him. The other returning players groaned at Noah's arrival; since leaving TDI, Noah had not changed one single bit. He was every bit as annoying as he ever was. The new players all got a bad first impression out of him, except for Spense and Julie, who were still talking. That made 11 players. Chris sighed with relief, the intros were half over. Only four veterans left to come, and seven new players. Right about when Spense and Julie's convo ended, the next bus came.

Since TDI, Beth got her braces off and actually became accepted into the popular crowd in her community. She also hooked up with a guy from her town who got his braces off and was accepted into the crowd the same time Beth was. His name was Brady. Even so, Beth happy accepted the chance to return to the Total Drama community for another chance at cash. Unfortunately for her, Brady didn't make the cut. When Beth got off the bus, Chris greeted her, just like with the others, and she caught up with the other returning players on what had happened since they left TDI. She was the most happy for Tyler becoming a real jock, knowing that her friend, and Tyler's girlfriend, Lindsay would be quite impressed. Too bad she wasn't here, Beth thought. When she asked Chris why, Chris told her that since Lindsay made it to the merge, she wasn't allowed on this season. Bummer. However, should anyone refuse the invite, a merge contestant would have to take his/her place. Tyler wondered if anyone did refuse the invite. He'd find out soon.

In the meantime, someone else's came. In it was a former C.I.T.! Since TDI, Courtney calmed down and gained a more friendly attitude. She also took classes in law school and became a lawyer in training. When Courtney got the invitation from Chris, she would have thrown it out, but Chris had written a few things on the back of Courtney's invite: that the new voting system would prevent anyone from tampering with the votes, and that the producers needed a good lawyer, and would hire Courtney as one if she accepted. Since she needed the extra cash, she signed up.

"Courtney! My favorite L.I.T.! Welcome to Total Drama Insanity!" Chris said as Courtney got off of the bus.

"Thank you Chris. Where do I put my bags?" asked Courtney.

"Right with the others," said Chris. Courtney did so. She was actually relieved when she looked around and found out that Duncan wasn't there. She loved him, but without him, the competition wouldn't get to her. She had his number anyway, so they could keep in touch. Without Duncan, Courtney would have been totally lost in TDIn. She joined Tori, Sammie, and Eva in conversation as the next bus arrived.

Harold, since TDI, had apologized to Courtney over the phone for what he did, and asked to start over. As a result, they're friends now. Harold also acquired new mad skills since TDI, and he also won LeShawna back over. Unlike Cody, however, Harold was just as nerdy as he was in TDI. Chris didn't want to send Harold the invite, but he satisfied the TDIn invite condition: to have been voted off prior to the merge. Oh, why couldn't it have been Trent or Geoff or Owen instead? Duncan? DJ? ANYONE BUT HAROLD!! However, Chris had no choice. He also had to pretend to be happy when Harold came off the bus.

Luckily for Chris, when Harold got off the bus, he walked right by Chris, put his stuff down with the rest of the players' stuff, and tried to hang out with Cody and Tyler. (but to no avail) Only one veteran left, and his bus was coming.

Since Total Drama Island, Justin signed many, many modeling contracts and discovered a Justin fan club in his hometown. He was so busy that he could barely find time to do anything else, let alone read the invite. He found time, though, to do so. Thing is, Justin refused the offer! So who would take his place? Chris debated over this for a long time. Going with a camper popular with fans, or really unpopular, would ruin the very concept of the show! Then Chris remembered. DJ!

Since TDI, DJ became a star quarterback in his school, and also founded a charity organization for poor people in Jamaica, DJ's home country. DJ was psyched to receive the invite for TDIn.

"DJ! Good to see ya!" said Chris as the former camper came off the bus.

"Chris McLean! What's happening buddy?" said DJ. The pals high-fived, and then DJ put down his bags with the rest of them and joined Cody and Tyler. DJ was their buddy, after all. However, their other friend Owen would not be joining them on account of getting to far in the game. With DJ here, all the rest of the veterans had arrived. Only newcomers were left. Courtney wondered if there would be another fat guy like Owen. She hoped not. She didn't even LIKE him very much, but he won last season, so yeah.Speaking of Owen, another overweight camper was on her way. Matter of fact, here she was.

Cathy was the head sponsor for TDI and Katie's biggest fan. But despite who she supported, all her friends constantly compared her to Sadie, something she hated so much. At last, the reason behind TDI and its budget came off the bus.

"Cathy! It is an honor to meet such a great contributor to Total Drama Island! Welcome to Total Drama..."

"Insanity. I saw it on the invite. I hope I'm not a laughingstock here like I was before," Cathy said, cutting Chris off. That stank. What was with the sadists? Cathy put her bags down and sulked in the corner, convinced that she'd be ridiculed for her weight. She didn't even try to hang with anyone else there, despite her position as the reason that TDI existed in the first place. Eventually, after receiving some encouragements from Tyler and DJ, Cody went to comfort her, calling her cute and saying that what other people thought didn't matter at all. Cathy appreciated this.

"Looks like I found a real friend here," she said in a confessional.Chris explained all the confessional stuff to the players, until they mastered post-production confessional entries. The confessional room was an old outhouse with the toilet removed. It wasn't the same as the one from TDI though...

Anyway, the next bus contained two people, twin siblings. Both were good-looking, but constantly picked on in grade school, causing them to adopt a mean, tough disposition so that they could hold their own. The dude was Craig, the chick was Halle. Both learned to never trust anyone, except each other, during their rough lives.

"Craig! Halle! Welcome to Total Drama Insanity!" said Chris as they got off the bus, but the pair just walked right by him, ignoring Chris completely. They steered clear of everyone else and began to talk amongst themselves instead. Touchy. Chris was reminded of Gwen and Heather when he saw them. Chris wasn't so fond of either of those two, so it wasn't good for him. Luckily for Chris, he could assign them to separate teams easily. Chris, for obvious reasons, was relieved when the next bus arrived.

Amy had auditioned for TDI in the past, but didn't make it. This season, however, it was different. Amy was chosen by Chris this season because of how fun she was, almost replacing Owen. For Amy, this was a dream come true!

"Amy, welcome to Total Drama Insanity!" said Chris, as usual, as Amy got off the bus.

"Chris! Finally, I meet you in person! This is just SO COOL! YA-HOO!!" yelled Amy, overjoyed to finally be part of some Total Drama. After greeting Chris, she ran to where the other bags were, put hers down, and did some backflips before finally calming down. Then, Amy started talking with Katie about "girl stuff". That made nineteen. The other three buses should have been here by now, as Amy was supposed to be last. The buses were stuck in traffic for a while, but just escaped it. Matter of fact, the next bus was already here! About time!

In every reality show Daisy ever watched, the antagonist (the female one, at least) was always pretty, snobby, popular, and mean, like a queen bee. Time after time, she was offended by this. Daisy was easily the most popular girl in her school, and the prettiest, but was nowhere near mean or bossy or snobby or queen beeish at all. In fact, the entire reason Daisy was popular before was because she was a pretty girl who cared about others and didn't corrupt when in power. Always trying to contribute, Daisy was president of the student council, (by unanimous vote) captain of the cheer leading squad, (and got the spirit award for her team) the president of the yearbook club, (to ban photos of mean kids and to make sure to include only the best shots of everyone if multiple shots are available) and star player on the school's soccer team. (to prove to the world that sexism is a lie) A lot of people from her school looked up to her for all the right reasons, and she hoped that she could bring as much of her spirit as possible to Total Drama Insanity.

When she got off the bus, there were oohs and aahs and "she's hot"s from the people who had already arrived.

"Daisy! What's up?" Great to have you on our show!" said Chris as soon as the admiring sounds were over.

"Thanks, Chris. This is great!" replied Daisy in such a sweet voice that it actually shocked the others, especially those who thought that she'd be just like Heather. As she went to put her bags down, she got hellos and introductions from everyone else, especially the guys, and a sinister, "I'm watching you!" from Halle, who didn't like the fact that Daisy might have been prettier than her, and attracting Craig. Daisy ignored her and started talking with the girls.

The next bus was stuck in traffic for an hour and got a flat tire. Damien was used to bad things always happening to him. Starting with his mom's death when he was young, Damien had always been the victim of unfair treatment. He lived in the shadow of his five older brothers, was constantly picked on in school and/or avoided, and got his heart smashed in half by a girl from his school who he had a huge crush on, who just so happened to be Heather. As a result of his misfortune, Damien put a shell around him and blocked off everyone else from it. He even went so far as to go goth, turning all of his clothes black and quitting trying to make friends, aside from his one younger brother, the only person that was ever nice to him. Damien joined TDIn for another chance at happiness, friends, and a sense of belonging that he oh so desperately craved. When the bus finally arrived at Wawanakwa park, it broke down. Damien considered himself lucky for not getting injured when the bus was rammed into by a truck.

When Damien stepped off the bus, most of the others pretended not to notice. Even Chris just greeted him with a shy, "Hi Damien," and kept his distance. After Damien put his bags down, he sulked in a corner, certain that he'd never make any friends here, even considering going emo and cutting himself. After a little while, Daisy decided that she couldn't take it any more. She left the girls and sat next to Damien in an attempt to be his friend. Damien and Daisy just hung out there, enjoying the company of each other and occasionally talking about whatever popped into one of their heads. Damien actually felt happy, for the first time in so long, in that moment.

The last bus had the last player, logically. Danny was never the brightest person he knew. In fact,Danny was outright dumb. However, despite his thick skull, those he knew were often jealous of him for his optimistic personality and fun attitude, which made him a blast to hang out with.

When Danny got off the bus, he accidentally ran right over Chris, knocking him down, though Chris didn't seem to mind. "And that, Danny," he said, "Is why you always want to wear a helmet." As soon as Danny put his bags down, Chris got ready to start the actual day. "Hello, everybody!" he said, eager to get the season started.

Chapter 2: The teams, the rules, and all that crap
"By now, all 22 of you have arrived at Wawanakwa park, where you'll be competing. Since I put all the rules on the invite, as well, as what's here, you don't need to worry about that. Now, let me take attendance so that you remember each others names and so that I'm sure we have everybody. Let's see, we've got Tyler, Tori, Cody, Sammie, Katie, Spense, Zeke, Matt, Eva, Julie, Noah, Harold, Beth, Courtney, DJ, Cathy, Craig, Halle, Amy, Daisy, Damien, and Danny. yup, everyone's here."

"Excuse me," said Tyler. "But where are we staying?"

"Good question," replied Chris. He pointed to two sets of six cabins each. "You'll be staying in one of those with one roomate. The small ones will be for one person apiece. I will assign the rooms after I assign the teams. Which brings me to the teams. For the first half of the game, there will be two teams, the Shouting Spiders and the Murderous Mosquitoes. For each challenge, there will be a winning team and a losing team, the winning team will recieve invincibility and ice cream, the losing team members must fess up their room keys. The night after a challenge, the losing team must meet at the park bench, over there." Chris pointed to a bench in the park, big enough to fit 5 Dannys, or 1 Danny and 10 normally sized people, with elbow room to spare. " Where all but one of you will receive your room key and an ice cream sandwich. The person who doesn't is out, and must walk the street of shame, and ride the bus of banishment to the hut of humiliation, where you will be forced to stay until we are down to two, when all the losers will appear as jury members. Now, I will assign the teams."

A lot of new friends and old friends were hoping to be on the same team, and for the most part, they were satisfied. Chris took note of new and old friendships in chapter one and organized the teams that way. "I will go alphabetically by first name for each camper. When I get to your name, I will tell you what team you're on. If anyone has a nickname, I would have known of it by now, and the alphabetizing will go by your nickname. Sorry, Zeke." Zeke rolled his eyes when Chris mentioned him. "When I tell you what team you're on, stand near the flag tat represents it," said Chris, pointing to two flags. The flag to the left of the players was orange with a picture of a giant spider in the middle. To the right of the players was a blue flag (midnight blue, in honor of last season's runner up) with a picture of a giant Mosquito in the middle. The players easily put two and two together and figured out which team was which, even Danny. Then Chris spoke up again.

"Amy, you're on the Shouting Spiders. Beth, you're on the Murderous Mosquitoes. Cathy, the Murderous Mosquitoes. Cody, the Murderous Mosquitoes. Courtney, the Murderous Mosquitoes. Craig, the Murderous Mosquitoes. Daisy, the Murderous Mosquitoes. Damien, the Murderous Mosquitoes. DJ, the Shouting Spiders. Eva, the Murderous Mosquitoes. Halle, the Shouting Spiders. Harold, the Shouting Spiders. Julie, the Shouting Spiders. Katie, the Shouting Spiders. Matt, the Murderous Mosquitoes. Noah, the Shouting Spiders. Sammie, the Shouting Spiders. Spense, the Shouting Spiders. Tori, The Shouting Spiders. Tyler, the Shouting Spiders. And last, but not least, Zeke, you're on the Murderous Mosquitoes." The players went to their team flag and high-fived their buddies when they got there.Craig and Halle didn't mind being on separate teams, it meant that they could establish a master plan while in this situation. Besides, pulling a Katie and Sadie would be rather stupid of them and set them off on the wrong foot. They wanted everyone ELSE to do that. "Your next task," piped in Chris while removing his helmet, "Is to find, and by that I mean to have me assign you, roommates. Obviously, your roomie must be on the same team and gender as you. Dudes get the guy cabins to the right, and chicks get the gal cabins to the left. Once I assign roommates, they can pick any cabin they want to provided its in the proper area. Lemme see here... For the Murderous Mosquitoes, the pairings are: Cathy and Daisy, Matt and Zeke, Courtney and Eva, Cody and Damien, Craig and Danny, leaving Beth with her own little cabin. For the Shouting Spiders, the pairings are: Halle and Amy, Julie and Katie, Spense and Tyler, DJ and Noah, leaving Harold with his own little cabin. Get moving!"

The new roomates settled in with little to no problem. Matt realized, upon unpacking, that he left his guitar at home! When he played the guitar, it was like it spoke to people, which was Matt's main form of communication. Without that, he had to speak Japanese all the time! Who would understand him? Man, I hope someone else has a guitar to lend me... Matt said in a confessional. 'But how am I going to ask someone? Who would believe me? Aw man, Gwen would know what to do. She always does, and with a beautiful fa--' he was cut off before he could finish his statement, which would have been followed by a string of profanities thrown at Trent.

Afterwards, the players met at the mess hall. Apparently, Tyler was a great cook, and paid for his lessons with some cooking lessons to Chef. To prove this, the lunch that day, meatball subs, were really good. Even so, many were worried about the first challenge. I have no idea what they'll make us do said Spense in a confessional, ''but I hope it isn't much. I mean, it IS our first challenge...''

The first challenge was in the soccer field. Need I say more? Now that the teams are set, the drama has finally begun! Tune in for another thrilling chapter of Total...

Drama...

INSANITY!! *signs off*

Chapter 3: One kick for the team
The 22 players of TDIn, divided into their respective teams, met up at the soccer field one hour after lunch just as Chris had instructed. "Hello, players," said Chris as soon as everyone was there. "Your first challenge is one that will test teamwork, skill, and communication: a soccer match. The game will last twenty minutes, divided into halves of ten minutes each. Each team will have a team leader for this challenge who decides who goes where position-wise, and will be the goalie. There are two spots on offense and three on defense, and two people for each spot; one for each half. The team with the most goals at the end wins invincibility and ice cream, while the losing team must hand in their room keys and show up tonight to send someone off the park. Now, pick your leaders!"

As soon as Chris finished explaining the rules, both teams got into huddles, trying to decide on a leader. "Well," said Tyler on the Shouting Spiders, "We need a good goalie and a good, kind person to be leader. Any thoughts?" Suddenly, all eyes on that team turned to DJ. "Fine, I'll be leader," said DJ, much to the pleasure of the other team members. "Now, here's how it's going to work. We need to make it so that we have one really good athlete on offense during both halves. How about... Amy the first half, and Tyler the second half. Sound good?" said DJ, expressing his leadership skills. "Sounds cool," said Spense, "But what about the rest of the spots?" DJ spoke up again. "Of course. Here's how the rest of it's gonna work..."

Meanwhile, the Murderous Mosquitoes were also deciding on a leader. "If no one else minds," said Courtney, "I would like to lead." since no one else wanted that role, they agreed on Courtney. It's good to play underdog the first game, said Craig in the confessional. ''If you assume leadership and you lose, you lose any kind of dominance during the rest of the game. And if you win, you'll be branded a threat and be voted off in the merge.'' "Okay," said Courtney, "We need to have someone really strong in the first half to gain a lead on the other team. In the second half, we just need to maintain it. Eva and Craig, you're on offense first half. As for the rest of you..."

When the strategies were decided on both teams, Chris blew the whistle and began the first half of the game. On the Shouting Spiders, Tori, Noah, and Julie were on defense, with Amy and Spense on offense, and DJ as goalie. The Murderous Mosquitoes had Eva and Craig on offense, and Zeke, Beth, and Cathy on defense, with Courtney as goalie. Chris blew the whistle, and the game began. Amy and Spense showed great teamwork at the start, passing the ball to each other while avoiding defense, scoring an easy goal for the Spiders. But then the Mosquitoes got control of the ball, and with Eva on offense, most of the defense became concerned not about the game but rather, about their lives when Eva charged through with the ball, scoring one goal after another. Still, Amy was fast and Spense was strong, and the pair got a few good goals in during the first half. DJ being goalie also helped the Spiders, blocking many would-be goals with his strength. Even so, by the end of the first half, the score was 10-20, Mosquitoes' favor. The players who played in the first half were all worn out and sweaty, and Tori was actually knocked out by Eva's power. For the ten-minute intermission, the players went to take showers and talk strategy for the second half.

"We may be losing," said DJ, "but the worst of it is over. Eva is out of the game now. That means that, just like we planned, Tyler and Katie can win the game for us. Harold, Halle, Sammie, you guys are on defense now. We can still do this!" the team high-fived and got into positions. The Mosquitoes talked their strategy as well, claiming that they only need to maintain it. Unknowingly to Courtney, Tyler would make it just as hard to maintain the lead as Courtney thought is was for the Spiders to take it. The players from the first half watched the game from the sidelines. Spense sat next to Julie and Eva sat next to Noah, which greatly pleased the other person. Ten minutes exactly after the first half ended, Chris blew the whistle, and the second half began. On defense for the Spiders now was Harold, Halle, and Sammie, with Katie and Tyler on offense. On the Mosquitoes' side of the field was Damien and Daisy on offense, and Matt, Danny, and Cody on defense. Game on!

DJ was right about Tyler; he and Katie's athletic ability gave the Spiders one goal after another, completely destroying the defense similar to Eva and the Spiders' defense. But Daisy wasn't the star player of the soccer team at her school for nothing, and did manage to score a goal whenever the ball was hers. She also showed great teamwork (and chemistry, according to some onlookers) with Damien, who was also pretty athletic. To the onlookers, it was a keeping-you-on-the-edge-of-your-seat-game. The onlookers were captivated by the action that happened right there, weather it was in a flash of pink or red. Goals, blocks, steals, more goals, impressive blocks by DJ, Tyler shooting an airborne ball into the goal perfectly, Daisy faking out DJ and scoring, Sammie stealing the ball from Damien, only for Daisy to steal it right back and shoot, only for DJ to catch it and throw the ball to Tyler. After nine minutes, the score was a dead tie, 25-25. 10 seconds left on the clock, and the ball is in Damien's control. He passes to Daisy. she dribbles past the defense and fires the ball towards the goal. 5 seconds left. DJ was exhausted from blocking balls for both halves, and it looked like the Mosquitoes would win. But just then, Sammie intercepted the ball with her knee and kicked the ball long and high in Tyler's direction. Three seconds. Everyone was on the edge of their seats as the ball flew towards Tyler. Time would run out before the ball would have landed! But Tyler daringly jumped as high as he can and shot the ball at the enemy's goal when his foot was at the same height as the ball. The soccer ball flew toward Courtney and her goal at blazing fast speeds, but Courtney was prepared, so she thought. Chris blew the time-up whistle while the ball was flying toward the goal, meaning that this would decide the game. Then a wind blew the ball just past the goal, to the right! Was the game really tied? No! Right before the ball would have landed, Katie ran up to it and kicked it into the goal and past a confused Courtney! The Shouting Spiders won! The Shouting Spiders won!

"Well, that was an awesome game!" said Chris. "Props to everyone who played! Shouting Spiders, you win invincibility and ice cream! Murderous Mosquitoes, you played a good, game, But I'll need your room keys. Meet me tonight at the park bench for the Ice Cream hand-out!"

The Shouting Spiders celebrated their victory with cheers and high-fives. The rest of the team caught Katie and DJ hugging, and Spense and Julie hugging. Katie and DJ, embarrassed, let go of each other, but Spense and Julie didn't care and hugged anyway. The team then went to one of the park tables to enjoy their ice cream and celebrate. The Murderous Mosquitoes reluctantly handed in their room keys and discussed who should be voted off. The Spiders could hear them at the other table.

"All I know is that we can't vote off Eva. She was our star player. Voting her off would be stupid."

"I say we vote off that weird kid Matt. I can't understand a word he says," said Eva.

"I sdojfi sdkhf Courtney. fhdjf hdf uifhi shfhaf"

"What about me, Matt?"

"He says that he doesn't like you, and that he thinks you're too bossy, eh?"

"I second that!"

"I agree, eh? You DID brain me with a lamp post last season, eh?"

"Well, I, for one, agree with Eva, and I say we vote him off. Agreed?"

"No, princess."

"Shut up, Craig! Only Duncan gets to call me that!"

"I agree with you, Courtney."

"Me too."

"Thanks, Daisy and Danny. Damien? Why haven't you spoken up?"

"I haven't decided yet."

"Well, It's either Courtney or Matt at this point, so keep that in mind."

"I'm begging you, Damien, don't vote off my lil' bro, eh?!"

"isdfh saiudfhiu siudfhisdfh shidfhgu duisfh udisfh husdfh"

"What?"

"He said 'I wish I could get my guitar from home, I need it', eh?"

"I don't think there's any more point in debating. We all know who we want to vote for at this point."

"I second that, eh? And I kinda don't know why we lost in the first place, eh? Eva was so good, eh?"

"Thanks for your support, Zeke. I was worried for a second there..."

"I wouldn't make that mistake two times in a row, eh?"

Then, Eva threw her stress ball at the nearby camera, preventing any more footage of the Mosquitoes' conversation from being taken. Anyway, that night, at the ice cream hand-out..."

The 11 members of the Murderous Mosquitoes sat on the bench. Chris entered, and explained the ceremony to the players. "I will hand each of you a pencil and a piece of paper. Write down the name of who you want to be voted off on the paper and put the paper in this here box." The players did so. "When I call your name, catch your room key, and come up to claim your ice cream sandwich. The person who's name I do not call must walk across the street of shame, catch the bus of banishment, and leave for the hut of humiliation. Now, let's see..." Chris tallied the votes. "Eva, Zeke, Danny, Craig..." all four of them caught their room keys and took their ice cream. "Damien, Cody, Beth, Cathy, Daisy..." they did the same. "Courtney, Matt, this is the final ice cream sandwich of the evening. The final tasty, cold treat goes to..." Courtney and Matt were both scared. the only one who they didn't know voted for either them or each other was Damien. his vote made all the difference. Damien smiled victoriously, knowing this. Finally, Chris tossed the last in-play room key of the night to, "Courtney." Courtney caught her key and took her ice cream sandwich. "Sorry Matt, but I can't say I'm shocked. You can't speak any English. Tough luck, dude." Matt was really disheartened from the news. "hfis sifhi sduifhasi fiwufhi iudf. sdiufh, Damien, sdiufh?" he said. Zeke translated it into, "I can't believe that I'm actually the first to go. Why, Damien, why?" Matt gave Zeke a good-bye hug before walking down the street of shame and getting onto the Bus of banishment, which rode off into the distance, supposedly to the Hut of Humiliation.

"The rest of you, enjoy your ice cream. You're all safe, for now," said Chris to the new Murderous Mosquitoes. Half of them were thanking Damien for voting with them, the other half were quietly eating their ice cream, slightly mad at Damien, especially Zeke.Either way, all of them hoped that they'd win the next challenge, whatever it may be. Man, am I glad I wasn't kicked off, said Courtney in the confessional. Better Matt than me!

Insanity! *signs off*

Chapter 4: Batons, Schemes, a Hot Tub, and Ice Cream
Last time, on Total Drama Insanity, 22 players, some old, some new, arrived in Wawanakwa Park to compete for $1,000,000. Two teams were formed, and a soccer game was all it took to test the teamwork of the two teams. Luckily for the Shouting Spiders, they had the now-super-atletic Tyler, as well as the sweet brickhouse, on their side, which was enough to defeat Eva's rampage of goals against them. At the first Ice Cream hand-out ever on this show, it was guest star Matt Tollin who was voted out due to speaking only Japanese and leaving his guitar at home - so we think. Will the Murderous Mosquitoes catch up? Will new alliances be formed? Who will be the next one to move to the hut? Find out here, on Toatl Drama Insanity!!

The 21 remaining players were fast asleep. It was 6:30 AM. Wait, did I say 21? I meant 21, except for Zeke, who couldn't sleep due to his best friend being voted off last night. He had been looking forward to working with his old pal so much, and now he's gone. I miss you already Matt!! said Zeke in the confessional. ''I can't sleep. How am I supposed to know what do do without you, eh? You taught me everything I know about the outside world!'' Unable to lay still any more, Zeke got up and walked to the mess hall for breakfast and some coffee. As soon as Zeke got his breakfast, Chris woke up the other players with an airhorn and a megaphone, much to their dismay. How am I supposed to recharge my mad skillz in less than 8 hours? complained Harold. I'm an asset to my team now, and this early wake-up time's gonna kill my new mojo! complained Tyler. Due to the time limit of the episodes, the rest of the confessionals about the wake-up time were cut. When the rest of the players got their breakfast and sat down at their respective tables, Chris announced that the challenge would be in one hour, prompting Sammie to ask what it was. Chris didn't reveal anything about it, but he did say that they players needed all the energy they could get. (much to Noah's pleasure, it was not dodgeball)

The players met up at the racetrack of the park. It was oval-shaped, looked like an Olympic racetrack, and if you ran one lap, you'd have ran 30 meters. "Shouting Spiders, meet the new Murderous Mosquitoes, without Matt Tollin," said Chris when the players got to the track. No one was really surprised at this. "Today's challenge is a relay race. Each team will have four relay runners. The first runner will carry this baton," Chris held up a baton, "and run one lap across the track. While they are running, the next two people in line to run, one from each team, will get in position. When the runner with the baton completes the lap, the next person should be waiting. The runner will pass the baton to the next person, who will then begin running. Then the person who passed the baton will sit in the middle of the track, where there's just grass, and the next person in line will get into position, and so on. When the last person in line completes his or her lap, he or she will raise the baton up in the air. The first team to complete the challenge wins invincibility and a reward: a hot tub which they can use for the rest of the summer! Pick your four fastest players, and get ready!" and with that, Chris left.

The Shouting Spiders easily chose four runners: Amy, Tyler, DJ, and Julie. ''Oh my god! I am so excited to be running in this challenge!'' said Amy in the confessional. ''I would have objected, but Spense was rooting for me! Don't tell the others, but I really like him!'' said Julie in the confessional. I didn't mind being chosen, said DJ in the confessional. ''If the team needed me, I was always there to help, just like the first challenge. Besides, Katie's rootin' for me. How can I argue with that? I, um... I said too much, did I?'' The Murderous Mosquitoes, on the other hand, had a kinda hard time picking their runners. They easily decided on Daisy and Eva, and eventually went with Damien for how well he did in the soccer game, and Cody, through encouragement courtesy of Beth and Courtney. ''I was psyched to be a runner. I'm pretty fast. Lots of practice from, wait, I already told you last season,'' said Cody in a confessional. ''Yeah, whatever. I just hope the team didn't misplace their faith in me,'' said Damien in the confessional as well. Both teams were informed that the relay starts in ten minutes, giving Craig and Halle enough time to make a plan.

Keep your friends close and your enemies closer, and keep REALLY close the people who'd be stupid enough to trust you, or desperate enough, said Craig in the confessional. Halle had similar feelings. Never go it alone, she said, ''Always keep nearby a couple idiots to carry you through the game, reinforce your vote, whatever. Good thing is, on MY team, there are two such idiots.'' Away from the other players, Craig and Halle met up to discuss their plan.

"I have this plan," said Craig, "To get us to the final two. What we need to do is..."

Halle finished his sentence, apparently knowing what he was going to say. "Find two people apiece to take under our wing and to reinforce our votes. When one of us loses, which will ALWAYS happen..."

"We convince the team to vote somebody off, and we weed the threats out one by one until it's down to us..."

"But we can't let our dummies know about the link between our alliances..."

"And if they do, we kick them out and vote them out!"

"Looks like we're thinking the same thing, Craig. I'm thinking of using Katie and Amy. You?"

"Danny for sure, and I think Damien might be desperate enough to trust me. I mean, look at him. He looks like he never had any friends."

"After the challenge. We'll discuss the elimination for tonight. Deal?"

"Deal. Let's move out!"

With that, Craig and Halle went their separate ways. Halle sweet-talked Amy and Katie into her alliance no problem, but Craig had to really act nice to convince Damien to join him. In the end though, each had their alliance. Then, the relay race began.

The runners first decided on the order: Tyler, DJ, Julie, Amy for the Spiders, and Damien, Cody, Daisy, Eva for the Mosquitoes. Then Chris fired a shotgun (a blank) and the race began. Damien was fast, but Tyler easily out-ran him, passing his baton to DJ a good thirty seconds before Damien could pass his to Cody. DJ wasn't as fast as Tyler, and Cody was a bit more nimble than Damien. Even so, it still looked like the Spiders were going to achieve a clear win over the Mosquitoes. Most of the Mosquitoes didn't like this, but Craig didn't even care, he just began to think about which Mosquito to boot should the Spiders win, and vice versa. Halle was thinking the same. However, it wasn't quite so obvious, as when Cody passed the baton to Daisy, things really heated up. She was about twice as fast as Damien or Cody, and diminished most of the lead the Spiders had on the Mosquitoes. But most hope of a victory for the Spiders vanished into thin air when Eva took the baton. Amy was really fast, however, and sustained the Spiders' lead for a good minute before getting knocked down by, as Amy called her in the confessional, "Eval Eva". When Eva took the lead for her team, the Spiders had no hope of gaining it back. In almost no time flat, Eva made it around the track and held her baton in the air, meaning victory for the Murderous Mosquitoes! They won the challenge and the hot tub! Hooray!

The Spiders had to vote someone off that night. Halle gathered Amy and Katie to discuss the vote.

"Girls, as you know, we need six votes for a complete majority, so here's the plan: we talk to Spense, Sammie, and Harold and get them to vote DJ with us!"

"NO! Not DJ! He's like, the best team player we've got!"

"Katie, you have a point, but let's think long-term here. If we get DJ out of the game now, we won't have to worry about him when the teams merge."

"Halle, who thinks that far in advance. And Katie's kinda right. I mean, how will we get them to vote off DJ?"

"I can, you know, Amy and Katie, dump you both and take two other people to the final three with me, if you must defy me..."

"NO!"

"NO!"

"But, you two have a strong point. Why not vote out a more subtle threat? Someone hard to like now, but can win respect later on with potential... Katie, since you know a lot about some of us Spiders, what do you think?

"Good question... let me thin - Harold!"

"I second that! He's too awkward and weird."

"Good idea, Katie. Harold it is! Amy, you and I will get Spense and Noah to vote Harold with us."

"What about me, Halle?

"That's too easy, Katie. I've seen the way DJ looks at you, now and last season. Talking HIM into voting off Harold, for you, will be a piece of cake!"

When they finished discussing, Halle's newly formed alliance parted ways, for now. It's so much fun to be part of an alliance! said Katie in the confessional. "Three heads are better than one! I hope Halle can get me with DJ later on. I like him a lot! He's SOO CUTE!"

At the ice cream hand-out that night, the Shouting Spiders handed in their room keys one-by-one and sat down. Then Chris explained the and-out to the Spiders. "I will hand each of you a pencil and a piece of paper. Write down the name of who you want to be voted off on the paper and put the paper in this here box." The Shouting Spiders did so. "When I call your name, catch your room key, and come up to claim your ice cream sandwich. The person who's name I do not call must walk across the street of shame, catch the bus of banishment, and leave for the hut of humiliation. Now, let's see..." Chris tallied the votes. "Tyler, Sammie, DJ, Katie, Amy..." They caught their keys and happily ate their ice cream sandwiches. "Halle, Spense, Julie, Tori," they did the same, happy to be safe. "Noah, Harold, this is the final ice cream sandwich of the night. Both of you are very disliked. One of you got six votes, one of you got five." ''If I was wrong about Katie and DJ, my alliance starts off nearly dead. That'd better not happen!'' said Halle in the confessional. "Noah, you're lazy, sadistic, sarcastic, and generally disliked by everyone. Harold, you switched the votes on Courtney, you're nerdy, awkward, and not too smart. But, you do have many mad skills and great potential." When Chris said that, Noah got pale, and Harold smiled. ''Oh no, not again. I can't afford to be first one kicked off on my team twice in a row!'' said Noah in the confessional. ''But Harold has skills. Skills are more important to most people than smarts. What am I gonna do?'' Chris paused for a few seconds to let the tension sink in, then tossed the last room key to, "Noah. you're safe!" Noah's expression changed to relieved as he pocketed his room key and ate his ice cream.

"But why? I have mad skills! You can't vote me out now!" retorted Harold.

"Yes we can, and we just did. Adios, loser!" said a satisfied Spense.

"You took the words right out of my mouth!" said Halle to Spense. Not even the people who voted Noah off seemed to care as Harold was sent to the hut on the Bus of Banishment.

Insanity! *signs off*

Chapter 5: Both reached for the flag
Last time on Total Drama Insanity, a relay race tested the speed of eight of our players in a baton-passing madwhirl. Tyler's speed set the Spiders ahead, but Eva's rampaging madness gave the Murderous Mosquitoes their first win so far on the show. Meanwhile, Craig and Halle formed an inter-team alliance, suckering in two other players apiece from their respective teams. Halle and her alliance of Katie and Amy convinced three of their fellow Spiders to vote out Harold, who could easily have dominated the entire game with his mad skills. But he didn't, and got booted. Well played Halle, and THANK YOU SO MUCH!! With that little creep gone, with the Shouting Spiders regain their lead? Will Craig and Halle's alliance last? Who will join Matt and Harold at the hut? Find out, in the most thrilling episode, of Total Drama Insanity!

The Murderous Mosquitoes were enjoying their hot tub party the night Harold was kicked off. They were drinkin' pop, eatin' chips, and having a blast.

"Where did you learn these great jokes, Damien? We'd all like to know!" said Danny, still laughing from that last joke.

"The internet. Where else?" said Damien.

"I'd like to call a toast," said Daisy. "To Eva, for winning us this hot tub party! You rock!" said Daisy. The nine players in the tub drank to that. Wait, nine? Oh yeah, Cathy had to use the bathroom. When she came back, she expected to be let back in, but Craig denied her.

"This hot tub is for good-looking people ONLY. Get lost, Cathy. No one wants you here." he said, with an evil grin. Cathy ran away crying. Cody was furious!

"She's on our team, she deserves this as much as we do, why not let her in?" he said. But that question was bordering a raged exclamation.

"Because," said Craig, "Just because. We already have enough fat people in here: one. No offense Danny."

Cody was even more enraged at this point. He knocked the chips and pop right out of his hand and threw them right out of the tub. "YOU SON OF A B****!! Fine, if there's no room left, I'M GOING TO MAKE ROOM!" after saying that, Cody grabbed Craig and threw him right out of the hot tub. Even Eva was shocked, no one had ever seen his temper get set off this much before!

"Dude, chill. I was joking," said Craig in an attempt to be let back into the hot tub.

"If you were joking, you would have SAID so when Cathy ran CRYING!" after saying THAT, Cody threw his soda bottle at Craig, it hit him in the groin, and Craig reeled in pain. Then Cody got out to tell Cathy that there was room. That Cody is going DOWN, or else my name ain't Craig Adams! said Craig in the confessional. Craig could only continue to reel in pain when Cathy and Cody returned with more Chips and pop for them and the rest of the team. (minus Craig) The others were still shocked at Cody's rage before. ''Wow! I never knew Cody could get so angry! He was never this angry when Gwen was hurt! I'm sensing something here...'' said Courtney in the confessional. ''Cody's a true friend. I'm lucky to know him. And don't tell the others, but I think he's cute!'' said Cathy in the confessional. Cody was the last one to use the confessional about the incident. ''I don't know what came over me, I don't remember the last time I got this angry! I mean, I guess I can't deny that I really like Cathy, but I liked Gwen last season, and I never got angry over her!'' he said. Eva's stress ball broke the camera that was watching this, so no more footage of the hot tub party was taken.

The next morning, after brecky, both teams met up in the soccer field as Chris had instructed. The goal nets had been replaced, though, with three cones, containing flags, on each side, and two empty cones on each side. "Hello, players," said Chris. "This is the new Shouting Spiders, without the little twerp Harold, who was thankfully voted out at the ice cream hand-out.

"Today's challenge is here courtesy of Duncan, who called me requesting a game he played in juvenile detention once, called capture the flag. Here's how it works: each team has three flags. The object of the game is to have all of your flags and all of your opponent's flags on your side of the field. Once you capture a flag from an enemy cone, you will put it in one of your empty cones. If you are tagged by a member of the opposite team in 'enemy territory' or on the other team's side of the field, you must go to 'jail'." Chris pointed at two squares on each side, corners marked by cones. "You cannot leave jail if you are in it. You can get out, by being tagged by a member of your team. If you are tagged in this manner, you must put your hands up and walk back to your side. You can't get tagged during your walk back, so don't rush. If you take and enemy flag and get tagged, you must give the flag to a member of the opposite team. You can pass the flag to someone else, or hand it to someone else, on your team, but not after you've been tagged. If you have stolen a flag, and returned to our side, but all the cones on your side have flags in them, raise the flag you're holding up into the air. The first team to do this wins! I'll give you ten minutes to talk strategy with your team before the game starts. Starting... now!" and then Chris walked out, giving both teams time to talk.

"Look, I have an idea and it's a good one," said Spense. "Four of us will go after flags. Those four will team up and go after one flag at a time. That way, we're basically guaranteed the flag. In the process, two of us will be on defense, but mainly focus on saving those four from jail when they inevitably get tagged. Three of us will guard flags and play defense, and then one of us will guard the jail. The only question is who does what."

"That's a great idea!" said Tyler. "I suggest that me, you, DJ, and Tori go on offense."

"Sounds good," said DJ.

"Amy, Katie and I will go on defense. Isn't that right, girls?" said Halle, kind of demanding instead of asking though.

"Um... Okay, sure!" Amy and Katie said together.

"Julie, how about you and me go on rescue duty?" said Sammy.

"Fine by me," replied Julie.

"So we're all set," said Spense, satisfied. "That leaves Noah on prison duty. Noah, are you okay with that?"

"Sure, whatever," said Noah in an uncaring tone.

"You'll be a team player this time, right?"

"Of course. You think I'd be dumb enough to make the same mistake twice?"

"No offense Noah, but yes."

"Very funny. Now let's get into position."

So the Shouting Spiders got ready. Meanwhile, the Murderous Mosquitoes had a hard time deciding what do do. More specifically, what Eva should do. Eventually they came up with a plan.

"Here's our plan," said Courtney. "Cody, Daisy, Zeke, and Craig, you guys go on offense and try to distract the Spiders on defense. Then when the coast is clear, Eva, you charge in full speed and take all the flags, and then run back to our side. Easy win. Damien, Cathy, Beth, Danny, you guys go on defense with me. Got it. Then let's go!" No one objected to that plan, but Craig confessed, (in the confessional) ''That girl Courtney gets on my nerves. She's a control freak, that's what she is! I dislike her almost as much as I do Cody. Almost, that is.''

Both teams got into positions, and Chris blew a whistle, starting the game. Courtney's plan began to work when Cody, Daisy, Zeke, and Craig went onto enemy territory to stall, though Zeke quickly got tagged by Amy when he tripped on a rock. She laughed when she saw Zeke trip and fall. It was funny, said Amy in the confessional. I wasn't trying to be mean.

Meanwhile, Tyler, Tori, Spense, and DJ teamed up on enemy territory and easily outran the Mosquitoes' defense. When Spense took a flag and passed it to Tori, Courtney gave the signal, and before The flag guards even knew what happened, Eva was charging in, full speed, just like Courtney said, and took all three of the Spiders' flags easily. At this time, Tori had passed the flag to Tyler, who was running back to his territory, and DJ had escaped. Spense and Tori were both tagged. Tyler and Eva were both running back to their territory. They just so happened to be running near each other, so Tyler made an effort to get Eva out. It was all or nothing, said Tyler in the confessional, But I knew I had to do it. Eva, believing that she could win the game by getting Tyler out by getting to the other side first, didn't avoid this. Both Tyler and Eva put their hands out in front of them in an effort to accomplish this. They both charged at maximum speed, trying to outrun each other. At last, both made it to the center line, and their hands clashed in the middle. It was so close to the middle that Chris asked both Tyler and Eva to freeze so that he can take a photo of them and see who's out. Chris took the photo, looked at it up close, and then spoke.

"This is very interesting..." he said, "By only a few millimeters, the hand clash between Tyler and Eva was on the Shouting Spiders' side of the field. That means Eva's out!" The Shouting Spiders cheered, while Eva slumped her way to the jail, depressed. She had, in her mind, let her team down. Courtney started to freak out because her plan failed, annoying the rest of the Mosquitoes, especially Eva, to no end. Noah, who was guarding the jail, was especially upset about Eva's getting out. They had a conversation while the rest of the players played the game.

"It's okay, Eva. You did your best."

"My team's entire strategy revolved around me, and I let them down. I deserve to go home."

"Don't say that, Eva. You won your team the hot tub last time, remember? And besides, I'd vote myself off if you went."

"Noah..."

"Eva..."

They gazed right into each others eyes for a moment, and then suddenly made out. Meanwhile, Julie had saved Spense and Tori, and they, DJ, and Tyler took another flag. Halle, Katie, and Amy tagged Cody, Daisy, and Craig. With Eva out, all the Spiders had to do was keep her out, and they were set. They didn't mind Noah and Eva's making out, Amy just took position as prison guard and that was that. Then Sammie rescued Julie, Tori, and DJ, who were in jail on the other side so they could steal another flag. With this method, the Shouting Spiders had victory in no time flat after Eva got out.

"Shouting Spiders, you guys rock! You win invincibility tonight, as well as a reward: an all-expenses paid trip to Friendly's!" said Chris after the Spiders took the last flag. All of the Shouting Spiders cheered. "Murderous Mosquitoes, you stink! gimme your room keys, and meet me tonight to vote someone out."

After the Shouting Spiders got onto the bus and went to friendly's, Craig had an alliance meeting with Damien and Danny. I LOVE being in an alliance!! said Danny in the confessional. ''It's SO much fun!! YEAH!!'' When Danny and Damien met up with Craig, they discussed the voting for that night. Craig started.

"Okay, for who we're going to get eliminated tonight, we're going to vote for..."

"Courtney!" said both Danny and Damien in unison, cutting Craig off.

"I was going to say either Cody or Courtney, preferably Cody for the hot tub incident. But Courtney works too. So I was thinking of convincing..."

"Oh, don't worry about that," said Danny, cutting off Craig again. "Damien and I talked to everyone else. Courtney's undecided, but the rest of us are pretty peeved at her for scolding Eva for losing by a smidgen. We're sticking up for the poor girl by getting Courtney kicked off."

"Okay then," said Craig, clearly impressed by this. "So, we vote for Courtney, and she gets kicked off. Dismissed."

That night, at the ice cream hand-out, after everyone on the Murderous Mosquitoes handed in their room keys, Chris explained the rules again, then passed out the voting box with ballots.

Courtney voted for Zeke. "A fat lot of help YOU were!"

Eva voted for Courtney. "You really hurt my feelings!"

When Chris got back the vote box, he tallied up the votes. "When I call your name," he said, "catch your room key, then come up and claim your ice cream sandwich. Eva, Danny, Craig, Zeke, Damien, Beth, Cody, Cathy... Zeke. All of you are safe!" Everyone except for Courtney caught their room key and happily munched on i=an ice cream sandwich. "Tastes like safety, eh?" said Zeke as he ate his.

"WHAT?!" yelled Courtney, shocked to be voted off. "You guys voted ME off, out of all people! I was a counselor in training! Ugh, screw this! Chris, you can forget about ME being your lawyer! I HATE this show!" and with that, Courtney stormed to the bus and angrily told the bus driver to take her to the hut, and "step on it!" As soon as the bus started, the rest of the team cheered!

So, if there any lesson in this, it's that, well, no one likes a control freak. I've got a real surprise planned next, but I ain't tellin'! I guess I'll see you next time, on Total...
