Chapter 1: Welcome Back to Wawanakwa- Part 1
The fifth season of Total Drama, folks! Three months after the completion of the fourth season, Chris decided to renew Total Drama for one final season. This big bang season would take place not only at good ole Camp Wawanakwa, but also around the world and even back at the abandoned film lot. The prize? One. Billion. Dollars. A giant expensive yacht pulls up to Camp Wawanakwa, which has a fresh coat of snow covering the island. Chris McLean, the "host with the most" is the first person to step off the yacht. He stands on the beloved Dock of Shame, and stands waiting for all the other contestants to load. It took him a while to track them all down. Ezekiel, now normal again, had slunk away to his farm, and Eva definitely did not want to be found. However, with Chris being Chris, he managed to round up all thirty-eight old contestants, and even two new contestants that would push all the veterans to their limit. "Welcome to Total...Drama...Explosion!" Chris cheers with his hands in the air, "This season, Chef and I will be pushing all of our favorite contestants to their limits, even adding two new players to the mix!" Chris, wearing a large jacket, paused and shivered. "Yes, this time around it will take place in the winter!" Chris explained. "Alright, let's meet our players."

The first contestants to step off the boat were the contestants who competed in not one, not two, but three seasons. Chris introduced them as they step off the yacht. Owen, DJ, Heather, Gwen, Bridgette, Leshawna, Harold, Duncan, Lindsay, Courtney and Izzy all waved to the camera as they walked off. Gwen whispered a comment to Bridgette and Leshawna and all three laughed and shot a look at Chris. Chris looked at them warily, and looked back at the yacht.

"Alright, those are our mega players, next up are some more returning favorites who didn't get a chance at all three seasons, but...just two...Noah, Tyler, Justin, Beth, Trent, Cody, and Ezekiel!" The contestants stepped out as Chris said their names, like before.

"I can't believe you convinced me to come back here," said Noah in an exasperated voice.

"I agree, this show did nothing but harm my beautiful facial features," agreed Justin.

"Oh, stop complaining," replied Gwen, "You only competed in two of these seasons, I was stuck in all three!" Leshawna, Heather, Bridgette, and Duncan, who were all standing behind her, nodded in agreement. Justin looked away, angry, as Chris began to introduce the next contestants. "Alright, next up are the contestants who only got to compete in one season, so they have some experience under their belt, but compared to the others, not a lot. First, our Total Drama World Tour additions Alejandro, Sierra, and Blaineley!" said Chris. The three stepped off the boat. Sierra's hair had grown back, and Alejandro was no longer a robot. Blaineley was finally out of her full body cast.

"Wait, WHAT?" exclaimed Heather angrily. "Blaineley is back? She's, like, one hundred years old!"

"Deal with it, sister," replied Blaineley with a smirk, "Not only am I competing this season, but I am in it to win it!"

Chris glared at Blaineley, remembering her remark about him back at her elimination in China. "Well, next up are Katie, Sadie, and Eva!" exclaimed Chris. Katie and Sadie squealed as they ran down the ship's ramp and onto the dock.

"It's SO great to see everyone!" said Katie excitedly.

"So, so great!" followed Sadie.

"Great, tweedle dumb and tweedle dumber are back in the game," said Duncan.

"Hey, that's like, so mean," replied Katie.

"So, so mean!" followed Sadie.

"But that's ok, because we are like, super excited to be back for another season!" replied Katie. The two began squealing.

Chris covered his ears as he began to announce the next contestants. "Alright these contestants also only got one season under their belt, they are our Season Four competitors! Anne Maria, Zoey, Dawn, Mike, B, Cameron, Sam, Dakota, Jo, Staci, Scott, Lightning and Brick!" said Chris. The thirteen Total Drama: Revenge of the Island contestants stepped off the yacht as Chris said their name, like all the previous contestants. "Great, I get to do this... again." said Scott. "As if once wasn't enough in one lifetime." Scott had recovered from his injuries in the previous season.

"Hey, at least we get to meet all the veterans!" exclaimed Zoey, excited.

"Yeah, woopity doo." replied Scott while rolling his eyes.

"Man, I miss when you were a robot and couldn't talk," replied Lightning.

The contestants began walking to the cabin area before Chris interrupted them. "Stop!" yelled Chris. "Hello, where do you all think you are going?"

"Uh, don't we go put our stuff down?" asked Duncan, fists clenched.

"No. One, you don't even know your teams, and two, we haven't introduced all of the contestants." said Chris.

Harold stepped out in front of the crowd. "36… 37… 38..." Harold counted, "No, that's everyone."

"Mr. Know-it-All, there are new contestants this season. They were in hidden rooms on the yacht!" said Chris. There was a collective gasp throughout the contestants.

"Great, more newbies." said Heather sarcastically.

"Eeh, Katie, we can make even more friends!" squealed Sadie. Katie squealed in response.

"Hush!" said Chris, which quieted the squealing girls. "First, we have the quiet Suki, who has silently slid through life, until finally she stepped up to join you all for your last run," continued Chris. A medium-sized, gorgeous, asian girl walked off the ship. "Suki may be silent, but she has a few secrets up her sleeve, and I will leave those for you all to discover!" said Chris. Suki appeared among the other contestants without saying a word, startling many of them.

"Hi everyone." she said shyly, waving at all the contestants staring at her.

"Hi nice to meet you!" says Heather, with her "nice girl" face on. "Us Asian girls have to stick together, right?" Leshawna pushed Heather out of the way.

"Yeah, you don't want to get in that business." said Leshawna, wrapping her arm around Suki.

"Yeah, I've seen Total Drama before, don't worry." said Suki, as she warily looked at all the players. The contestants looked nervous.

Duncan (CONF):These newbies have such an advantage! They have watched all of our past gameplay. They know our every move. Chris is just trying to make it as hard as he can and he is going to get it!

"Next is our villain! That's right, he is not even trying to hide it a little bit. He is athletic, brilliant, and very persuading, Joe!" said Chris. Joe walked down the ramp, looking extremely confident. He did not say a word to any of the other players, as if he knew he is going to beat all of them and they did not deserve his words. Alejandro, Scott and Heather all immediately glared at Joe.

Alejandro (CONF): Another villain? Having to deal with Heather was enough in the third season, now not only do I have Heather, but also the newb antagonist Scott, and then ANOTHER one? Ai, Ai, Ai.

Heather (CONF): Hmph, that guy thinks he is all that. He can bring it.

"Alright, so the teams will be determined simply." said Chris. "I will choose them to keep things spicy!" The contestants groaned. "Alright, If I say your name please walk to my left... Alejandro, B, Bridgette, Cameron, Courtney, Dawn, DJ, Duncan, Gwen, Harold, Heather, Joe, Katie, Leshawna, Lightning, Lindsay, Scott, Staci, Trent, and Zoey!" The contestants who were called all slowly walked to Chris's left, staring each other down. Scott and Heather were locked in a glare, and so were Duncan and Trent.

Gwen (CONF): Seriously Chris? Putting me on a team with Duncan AND Trent? I thought Duncan was the one for me, but I don't know, and us all being together definitely is not helping! And Courtney being on our team is definitely NOT going to help...and Heather... really... like, really...*blows hair out of her face*

Zoey (CONF): B-But what about Mike? That means "Vito" and Anne Maria are on the same team... this is horrible!

Geoff (CONF): *wailing* Bridgette! She is on team one with that jerk Alejandro, what am I going to do!

"I name your team, the Fiery Phoenixes!" says Chris. He then points to his right. "You all are team two, or should I say, the Frozen Foxes!" Both teams didn't seem too upset with the team names.

Beth (CONF): Better than being called a Grip.

Anne Maria (CONF): or a Maggot.

Scott (CONF): or a Rat.

"Alright, so your first challenge will be to get all the way to the top of the cliff!" began Chris. "That's right, it's the opposite of the very first challenge of Total Drama." The contestants groaned, and began the climb, starting what was to become the most intense season of Total Drama... ever.

To Be Continued...

Chapter 2: Welcome Back to Wawanakwa- Part 2
"Last time on Total, Drama Explosion!" began Chris, "The forty contestants were re-aquainted with their favorite place on the entire planet, Camp Wawanakwa! Our two new contestants already stirred up some drama with our favorite villains Alejandro and Heather, and two teams of twenty were formed, man we have a lot of players this time around! These contestants need to be ready to bring it for the first challenge of many, if they want a chance to be the ultimate camper and come out on top in Total...Drama...Explosion!"

The first scene showed the giant cliff looming over the bunch of nervous contestants.

Bridgette (CONF): I can't believe Chris is making us climb up the cliff, I mean jumping off wasn't too bad but climbing up?

Anne Maria (CONF): That's it, now that Chris raised the stake I gots to get my head in the game! And if Red thinks she is going to swoop in and take my Vito, she has another thing coming

"Alright teams you ready for your first challenge?" said Chris, earning some glares, "But a twist, like in the first challenge, you can choose not to take the climb and wear a chicken hat. Also, if you fall off the cliff and into the water you are out of the challenge! The team with the most successful climbers will make it to the top!...and GO!" The contestants began sprinting towards the wall, well two of them did. Jo and Eva were determined to carry the Foxes all the way to the top.

"Can you Maggots get a move on?!" yelled Jo at her team, as she began climbing the wall.

"Yeah, you don't want to make me angry, You wouldn't like me when I'm angry" followed up Eva. Jo had a brief glare at Eva.

"I'm leading this team soldier, and don't you think for a second otherwise" replied Jo angrily.

"Hmm sorry I don't seem to see your captain's arm band butt-less" replied Eva.

"Guys stop fighting!" yelled Beth from below, beginning her climb. Others began slowly moving towards the cliff as well. Noah began slowly climbing up the cliff, however his lack of arm strength did not play in his favor. Heather and Gwen began climbing too and were head to head with each other, glaring the whole way. Noah saw no one else climbing from his team and got an idea.

"Hey, this would be easy for world class gymnast champion…" started Noah.

"Svetlana!!" replied Mike (Svetlana). Mike as Svetlana began bounding up the cliff.

Noah (CONF): I saw Cameron use that trick last season, gotta take what you can get

"Hey that's my thing!" said Cameron, also struggling with his climb. Joe was busy antagonizing the other Phoenixes. "Hello, why do I only see two teammates climbing? They have four already on their way up!" said Joe angrily.

"I don't see you climbing twinkle toes," replied Duncan.

"I am not someone you want to mess with you wannabe punk rocker," said Joe, "Just because your face is full of metal doesn't mean you are cool." Promptly after this was said, Duncan lunged at him and tackled him to the ground. Duncan rose smirking, and began climbing up the cliff.

Joe (CONF): Hey whatever works. These losers think they know this game, just because they have played before. Well I have gotten to watch the whole thing, they know nothing. One by one they will fall, and one by one I will get closer to claiming the prize that is rightfully mine.

In the meantime, Anne Maria decided to begin the climb, as did Bridgette. They began equal, but Bridgette quickly out-climbed Anne Maria. By this point, Jo and Eva had both reached the top. Heather and Gwen reached it right after they did.

"Take that foxes" cheered Heather, "look likes the phoenixes are going to fly right past you. V-I-C-T-O-R-Y."

"More like B-I-T-C…" started Jo.

"Hey none of that!" said Beth, just reaching the top. Mike (Svetlana) was not far behind. When Zoey saw Anne Maria climbing and Mike at the top, she was inspired to begin the climb as well.

Zoey (CONF): I do not want Ms. "Poof" up there alone with Vít- I mean Mike. I do believe Mike has gained control of the personalities...Really I do! *nervous chuckle*

The rest of the contestants were still debating climbing or not, when the giant cockroach from back in the fourth season returned. This freaked out Leshawna and Lindsay, so Lindsay quickly jumped on Leshawna's back, and Leshawna began to climb frantically up the cliff. "Hello friend!" said Dawn, stroking the cockroach's head. It motioned for her to get on its’ back, and it began taking her up the cliff.

"That can't be legal!" said Alejandro, beginning his climb. Courtney followed. Jo and Eva were hollering at the top of the cliff when they realized a lot more Phoenixes were climbing than Foxes. So far there were four Foxes at the top (Eva, Jo, Beth, and Mike) and two Phoenixes (Gwen and Heather). Bridgette, now far ahead of Anne Maria, was close to the top.

"Come on surfer girl, I don't see you rocking this challenge like you did in the first season" said Eva with a glare. She then kicked a rock over the side of the cliff, causing Bridgette to lose her grip.

"Bridgette!" yelled Gwen, reaching down to try and grab her hand. She missed it barely and Bridgette fell into the water below, eliminating her from the challenge. Heather turned to Eva, who was being high-fived by Jo.

"Seriously psycho chick, you need to check into anger rehab soon before the crazy police come and catch you in one of those giant nets" said Heather. This prompted an angry Eva to charge at Heather, but when trying to punch her she accidentally hit Mike. This turned Mike into Vito, and with perfect timing, Anne Maria arrived at the top.

"Vito baby!" said Anne Maria.

Anne Maria (CONF): I'm so glad my Vito is back in the game! Mike may have gotten some control over those little characters of his, but Vito loves me too much to stay down *swoons*

"With five Foxes, and only two Phoenixes done with the climb, odds aren't looking good for the Phoenixes- Wait! I spoke too soon" said Chris. A stream of Phoenixes all began arriving at the top. First up was Duncan, followed by Joe, Leshawna, Lindsay, Dawn, Alejandro, Courtney, and Zoey. This meant there were now ten Phoenixes as opposed to the Fox's six.

"Almost...there" said Noah, breathing heavily. He then lost his grip slightly and began falling to the bottom, "Ahhhhhhhh!!!"

Noah (CONF): *soaking wet* Perfect

"Alright well no one else seems to be climbing, so I am only giving fifteen more minutes until this challenge is officially over!" announced Chris. Izzy, out of no where, began charging towards the cliff climbing and screaming. She bounded up the cliff and was up to the top in about a minute. The remaining contestants on the ground stood there gaping.

Scott (CONF): Alright well she has got to go

Cameron (CONF): Its's times like these where I miss my bubble *shivers*

"Now that Lightning has let the others have their shot, it's Lightning time. Sha-CLIMB!" said Lightning, as he began up the cliff. Others began slowly following him. Time began counting down, as Lightning, Scott, DJ Katie, Dakota, Trent, Tyler, Cody and Geoff all started their climb. The contestants standing at the top of the cliff were looking over nervously.

"Woo! First place! Sha-LIGHTNING!" said Lightning cheering as he reached the top.

"Uh, I'm not good at math, but he got here after like sixteen people," said Lindsay, "I'm confused, how did he get first?"

"He didn't braniac" replied Gwen, "he just has an ego the size of Eva's thighs."

"Excuse me?" said Lightning, "Last time I checked creepy girl 2.0 we are on the same team!"

Lightning (CONF):The nerve of some people!

"Hmph, whatever" replied Gwen. Next to arrive at the top were DJ and Katie. DJ got to the top first. Just as Katie was climbing over the side, she slipped. DJ was the closest to her, so he dove and caught her hand.

"T-Thanks DJ!" said Katie blushing.

Katie (CONF): *jumping up and down* Eeh DJ is so cute!

"DONE!" yelled Chris through his bullhorn, ending the challenge before anyone else could get to the top, "Looks like the Phoenixes flew WAY above the Foxes in this challenge. Foxes, I will be seeing you all at elimination!." Eva and Jo yelled in frustration.

"My team is absolutely useless!" cried Eva.

"For once, I agree," said Jo.

The contestants were eating dinner in the mess hall, and the Frozen Foxes were discussing who to eliminate.

"I wish my Great-Great-Great Uncle Martin was here," said Staci, with her tray in hand "He invented elimination." She then walked over to sit with her fellow Phoenix's. The Foxes sat there trying to figure out what she had said, when Jo finally spoke up.

"Alright, I think we should eliminate that bag full of crazy Izzy, I mean, look at her" she said, pointing at Izzy. Izzy's tongue was wrapped around her head and she was laughing hysterically about it.

"No not Izzy!" intervened Owen, "She's so sweet and will definitely be helpful later in the game!"

"Team before relationships chubbo," replied Jo.

"Well if your so intent on the team, why don't you eliminate someone who actually doesn't help, like Ezekiel?" replied Blaineley. Tyler and Sadie nodded in agreement.

Blaineley (CONF): I got this game in the bag, these losers aren't going to know what hit them. World Tour was just a warm up, just to get a feel for the tension between the contestants

"Yeah, and like, Ezekiel is like really sexist" agreed Sadie.

"I don't know, I feel bad for the little dude," said Geoff, "I mean, he was a monster for a while because he got eliminated.

"Yeah, why me homie?" said Ezekiel, glaring at Owen.

In a shy voice, Suki suddenly spoke up. "I don't know, I think whatever keeps our unit strong will be for the best." said Suki. The contestants all looked at her, shocked that she finally spoke.

Justin (CONF):´This girl is not letting on how smart she is. I like that, I like that a lot.

Over at the Phoenixes table, they were laughing and having a good time, well most of them. "Guys, we need to stay focused on the game" said Joe angry, "Were not here to be friendly."

"Well sugar, you should just be happy you are here for another three days." said Leshawna, "If you keep acting like this and we lose, your sorry butt is out of here."

"Yeah, for once, I agree with loud and proud," replied Heather. Joe looked annoyed and slunk away.

Joe (CONF): I am on a team, full of idiots. Do they not realize this is a competition?

Night fell on Wawanakwa, and snow began gently falling. The fire lit the campfire grounds, and the Foxes were sitting there anxiously. The light of the fire exxagurated the fear the contestants had. Chris arrived with his plate of marshmallows, the first of the season. "One of you will not survive tonight's elimination," began Chris, "and unlike previous seasons, the eliminated camper truly won't return to the camp...ever." The contestants gasped.

"Tonight, I have 19 marshmallows on this plate. These marshmallows once again represent your safety in this game. The first of these marshmallows goes to...Sierra." said Chris.

"Eeh!" said Sierra, as Chris tossed her the marshmallow. She turned to Cody grinning and pointing at the marshmallow, in return Cody smiled.

"The next three safe are Anne Maria, Mike/Vito/Whoever you are, and Geoff." said Chris.

"Yeah dude!" said Geoff happily, eating his marshmallow happily. Anne Maria hugged Mike causing him to look confused, but then smiled after realizing he was safe for another three days.

"Owen...Blaineley... Brick... Beth..." said Chris, "You four may enjoy the delight that is safety."

"Woohoo!" said Owen, high fiving Blaineley and farting happily.

"Good to know you losers know who's helpful around here!" said Blaineley, brushing herself off.

"Thank you all very kindly," said Brick, saluting his team.

"Also safe is newbie Suki!" said Chris. A smile formed on Suki's face as she silently caught the marshmallow.

"The following are also safe, Eva, Sadie, Sam, Dakota, Noah, Tyler, Cody, and Jo." said Chris. Eva and Jo both sighed in relief, and then quickly glared at each other. Sam hugged Dakota, who at first looked grossed out but then smiled, and Sadie squealed. Noah and Cody high-fived, and Tyler tried to join the high-five but missed and fell on his face. This caused Sadie and Dakota to chuckle at Tyler. "Out of you three who all received votes, the one that is avoiding the bottom two is Justin," said Chris. Justin looked angry as he caught his marshmallow.

Justin (CONF): Someone voted for me? Oh they are so going down. Anyone who tries to harm the beautiful pays the price

"Only one of you is safe tonight" said Chris. Ezekiel and Izzy both looked extremely nervous. "The last marshmallow on this plate is going to…

"Sorry dude, you are out first….again…." said Chris.

"We will miss you!" said Sadie, waving.

"You knobs, well at least I get to hang at that awesome resort, eh?" said Ezekiel. Chris nodded, and Ezekiel walked down the dock to the Boat of Losers. The scene zoomed out of the campfire, ending the first episode of Total Drama's final season.

Chapter 3: Capture the Mascot
"Last time, on Total, Drama, Explosion!" began Chris, "Our favorite thirty-eight veterans were brought back along with two newbies, Joe and Suki, and were split into two teams, the Fiery Phoenixes, and the Frozen Foxes! Our contestants had a fun first challenge, well, fun for me to watch, in which the Phoenixes burned down the competition after the Foxes all got annoyed at Eva and Jo. Despite this, it was Ezekiel who got the boot for not being a useful person to have on the team. Shocker right? This time our contestants will be pitted against each other in an intense game of capture the masco- I mean flag. Who will win? Who will lose? Will Scott ever grow a heart? Find out on Total...Drama...Explosion!"

The contestants were sleeping soundly when Chris did his thing and blew the ever-popular wake up horn. In the Phoenixes cabin, the boys were not amused.

"Ah I'm so tired of Chris!" said Harold, yawning, "Don't you agree B?"

B nodded in return.

"I mean, it's so irritating, what did you think of him last season?" follwed up Harold.

B shrugged in response.

"Uh...Well did you like the other contestants that you competed with?" replied Harold.

B shrugged again.

"Alrighty then..." said Harold, backing away.

Harold (CONF): .....Uh?

Duncan came up and put his hand on Harold's shoulder. "Aren't you glad were teammates again buddy?" said Duncan grinning.

"Uh...no" replied Harold.

"Well you should be, I have a proposal" said Duncan, leading Harold out the cabin door.

Duncan (CONF): Do I like Harold? Meh, so-so, but an alliance is an alliance

Scott and Joe were whispering about Duncan. "He has got to go" said Scott. Joe nodded in agreement.

Joe (CONF): The key is to let Scott think he's in control, then blindside him. Easy.

At breakfast, the contestants were eating when a giant bird swooped in through the ceiling, and a fox came sprinting through the doors. Both halted and turned to look at the open front door. Chris walked in with a big grin on his face. "Hello contestants, It's time for today's challenge. Each of you will have to protect your own mascot, while attempting to capture the other team's mascot! The island is divided in half. The side with the Dock of Shame, the cliff, and the beach is Phoenix territory, the side with most of the woods and the cabins is Fox territory. If you get tagged in the other team's territory then you are out and cannot be saved! Ready.......Go!" said Chris.

"Let's move!" said Jo, fox in hand and sprinting out the cabin. The Foxes were following her, and Sierra did not look amused at Jo's orders.

Sierra (CONF): Ok, Jo thinks she knows what shes doing but I'm the one who knows everything there is to know about Total Drama.

Sierra scoops Cody up over her shoulder. "There you go best friend, I wouldn't want you to have to run on those tiny legs of yours" she said. Cody looked embarressed, and Noah looked on a little bit sad.

Noah (CONF): What is the deal with Serra and Cody. I mean, not like I care

"Let's hurry guys!" said Alejandro to his fellow Phoenixes. B had managed to secure the bird, and they began sprinting out to the campfire grounds.

"Alright, I propose we split into offense and defense" said Courtney.

"Who gave you the crown your highness?" said Duncan, rolling his eyes.

"No it's a good idea Courtney!" said Gwen, earning herself a glare.

Gwen (CONF): Ok, I try to support her and she still glares at me! What am I supposed to do!

"Gwen is being sincere" said Dawn, "Really, I can tell by her aura." Courtney looked at her with a worried face.

"Uh...alright..." replied Courtney, "So anyways, on offense we will need some athletes, so Bridgette, Katie, Heather, Lightning, DJ, Alejandro, Scott, and myself will be on offense." The eight nodded in agreement.

"Gwen, I'm leaving you in charge of team defense with B, Cameron, Dawn, Duncan, Harold, Joe, Leshawna, Lindsay, Staci, and Trent." said Courtney.

Gwen (CONF): She's giving me the position of being in charge! Wow maybe we really are becoming friends again

Courtney (CONF): I only gave her that position so if she loses we can blame her and vote her off. It's all strategy.

Joe (CONF): *chuckles* I can't WAIT to watch goth girl fail and get the boot. That's an easy threat gone.

Back at the Foxes in the woods, Jo and Brick were leading the Foxes further into the woods.

"Were lost. Great job," said Noah, rolling his eyes.

"Look scrawny, just cause Man-lady and Brick house are leading us into the depths of the unknown, doesn't mean you have to be all negative" said Anne Maria, spraying her hair. Noah glared in return.

"Ok, let's just chill out" said Geoff, "We will split into teams. I will lead Sierra, Tyler, Mike, Beth, Eva, Dakota, Jo, and Brick on team offense. As much as I hate to say this, Blaineley, you lead Anne Maria, Cody, Izzy, Justin, Sam, Noah, Owen, Sadie, and Suki on defense. We have to focus on defense if we want to win dudes! We can do this!" Geoff rose a fist in the air, and the fellow Foxes did too, all but Jo.

Jo (CONF): I am captain of this team, if happy-go-lucky thinks he can just come in with his charm he's got another thing coming.

A montage followed of both offensive teams sneaking into the other team's territories. The camera then zoomed over to the Phoenix's offense. "Alright let's go" said Courtney, whispering to her teammates, "I think I see Sadie over there." Katie began to squeal but Lightning quickly put his hand over her mouth.

"Are you crazy girl?" said Lightning, "Don't you dare blow the challenge for us!"

Katie (CONF): Lightning is like, so right, I have to focus

Lightning (CONF): *facepalm*

On the offensive Foxes team, Geoff was slowly urging his team forward when they come to a split in the path. "Alright dudes, I say we go right to the campfire grounds, that's probably where they are," whispered Geoff.

"No, they are definitely left. The cliff is a much better defensive area than the campfire grounds" replied Jo with a hushed voice.

"Uh well I d-" began Geoff.

"Look muscles, I am captain of this team, and I say we go left," said Jo, walking down the left path. The Foxes began following her.

Sierra (CONF): This is what I mean, I mean, I don't remember holding captain elections and if we did she would definitely NOT have won

"Is anyone else worried we haven't seen anyone yet?" said Cameron, biting his nails. The Phoenixes were sitting on the logs of the campfire ceremony, and Dawn was holding the bird and petting it.

"I'm sure they are planning a sneak attack," said Harold.

"I have an idea, Why don't we form a circle around the bird all facing out? That way they can't get to it?" said Trent. They all began forming a circle around the bird.

"Good idea Trent!" said Gwen. Trent blushed, and Duncan growled at Trent. Joe had an annoyed look on his face.

Joe (CONF): How am I supposed to take out goth chick with wanna-be pop sensation giving out good ideas? He has got to go to. The list just keeps growing

"So like, what do we do now?" said Lindsay.

"We just sit here, and enjoy the breeze," said Trent cooly. The contestants faces slowly shifted from relaxtion to paranoia.

Over at the Foxes camp, the defensive team was not getting along well.

"Look sister, Geoff left me in charge, ME! Not you! So keep your bad ideas and your hair spray to yourself," said Blaineley angrily to Anne Maria.

"It's not a bad idea grandma. Foxes enjoy fake tan, and some camoflauge would help us win and protect Foxy D here," replied Anne Maria.

"I have an id-" began Suki, causing both Blaineley and Anne Maria to turn and growl at her, "Nevermind."

"I don't see why you have to fight, I'm sure we will win this challenge," said Owen happily. This also caused Anne Maria and Blaineley to growl, but this time at him.

"EEEEEEEEH IT'S KATIE!" yelled Sadie, spotting Katie in the distance. This alarmed the fox and caused it to sprint out of Sam's hands and towards the Phoenixes.

"Go go go!" yelled Courtney, prompting the entire offensive team to sprint towards the fox.

"I got it!" said Bridgette, scooping up the Fox in her hands. They turned around and began to sprint away with the Foxes in hot pursuit. The Phoenixes were sprinting away, as Bridgette tripped and the Fox got free.

"Quick grab it!" yelled Heather.

Blaineley quickly came over and tagged Bridgette, eliminating her from the challenge. "That's revenge sister," said Blaineley.

"For what?!" replied Bridgette, but she was too late, as Blaineley had already begun sprinting after the other Phoenixes. She managed to also tag DJ and Scott.

"Crap!" said Scott, kicking the dirt.

Scott (CONF): After my strategy last season I am so tired of losing. This is not what Pappy would have wanted. But I have a team full of threats so I guess I could still play this to my advantage...

Alejandro charmed the fox into jumping into his arms.

"Yes! Good work!" said Heather. He turned to look at her and she blushed. Justin and Izzy managed to tag Courtney and Katie, as Alejandro and Heather sprinted away with the fox. They both arrived at the mess hall, fox in hand.

"And the winners are...the Fiery Phoenixes!!" said Chris.

"Crap!" said Blaineley, picking up a chair and throwing it into the wall.

Owen (CONF): And I thought Eva was the psycho angry chick. At least Blaineley likes me...well at least I think...*farts*

"I will see the Frozen Foxes at elimination!" said Chris, this time not only to the campers in the mess hall but also over the intercom.

At dinner, the Foxes are discussing who to eliminate.

"Err I think it has got to be Sadie, she cost us the challenge" said Sam.

"No, I know who it should be" said Sierra, "Her". She scowled and pointed at Jo.

"What? What did I do?" said Jo defensively.

"You lead the offensive team all the way up the cliff! And the Phoenixes were at the campfire grounds just like Geoff said." replied Sierra.

Sierra (CONF): She thinks she knows what she is doing, but she is going down!

The contestants sitting at the Foxes table looked split. Over at the Phoenixes table they are celebrating their victory.

"Thanks for leaving me in charge Courtney, that was actually...really cool of you." said Gwen with a smile.

"Uh...thanks!" said Courtney rubbing the back of her head, "any time!"

Courtney (CONF): Ok maybe I feel a little guilty, but goth girl deserves it for being a boyfriend stealer

"Did you know my great-great-great-great-great twice removed Uncle Eugene invented leadership? Uh-huh, before him, everyone just scrambled around everywhere going AHH" said Staci, throwing her hands in the air. This caused all the Phoenixes to laugh and temporarily broke the tension that was cursing their team. "What's so funny?" said Staci confused. This caused all the Phoenixes to freeze and look at Staci confused.

Lightning (CONF): Sha-Crazy!

Zoey looked down as the others began talking.

"What's wrong Zoey," said Dawn in her sweet voice.

"I just, I want to make more friends, but I can't stop worrying about Mike and Anne Maria being on a team together." said Zoey.

"I'm sure Mike will keep Vito contained," said Dawn.

"Yeah!" said an eavesdropping Cameron, "Mike likes you a lot Zoey, you don't have to worry."

"Thanks guys," said Zoey with a faint smile. At the elimination ceremony, all the Foxes were looking nervous as ever. The contestants were shivering in the cold of the night, and all of them were covered in a combination of snow and dirt from the trudge to the elimination grounds.

"Alright, time for the results!" began Chris, "You have all voted and one of you will be taking the dock of shame and will never come compete in a Total Drama game ever again...ever." The contestants looked around at each other worried. Owen put his arm around Izzy for comfort, and she looked hesitant at first but put her arm around him as well.

"And the first marshmallow of the night goes to...Geoff." said Chris. Geoff happily caught his marshmallow.

"Alright!" said Geoff, fist in the air.

"The next one goes to Suki," said Chris, tossing her a marshmallow.

"Thank you guys," said Suki shyly, nibbling on her marshmallow.

"The next safe are, Izzy, Beth, Anne Maria, Mike, Tyler, Owen, Cody and Noah!" said Chris. He tossed out marshmallows to all of them, and all but Noah caught theirs. They all cheered happily.

"Wooohooooo!" said Izzy, "Three more days of Izzy-time!"

Izzy got up and hugged Owen, causing him to smile with glee. Noah glanced over at Cody with a smile and Cody smiled in return.

"A place at the table!" said Tyler, putting his arms around Noah and Cody happily.

"Alright, and now marshmallows for Brick, Justin, Blaineley, and Sam" said Chris.

"Woo, level up!" yelled Sam.

"Affirmative," said Brick with a smile. Right after Justin caught his marshmallow he glared at Sadie. In the meantime, Blaineley was glaring at Jo.

"The next too safe are Dakota and Eva," said Chris, tossing them their marshmallows.

"You all are lucky!" said Eva angrily.

"Yay!" cheered Dakota.

"And the person escaping the bottom two is...Sierra!" said Chris, tossing her a marshmallow.

"Smiley face!" said Sierra, catching her marshmallow.

"One of you two is going to be eliminated," said Chris. Jo looked steaming angry and Sadie was crossing her fingers.

"The person who is receiving this last marshmallow, and is safe for another three days is...

......................................Jo!" said Chris. Jo calmed down and caught her marshmallow. Sadie looked really said and without saying anything ran crying down the dock of shame.

"Good thing you guys didn't eliminate me, or some heads would have rolled," said Jo.

"Will Jo ever forgive her team? Will we ever find out Suki's secret? Will Joe end up ruling the island? Will Anne Maria ever let go of her hair spray? These questions answered and more next time on Total...Drama...Revenge of the Island!" said Chris

Chapter 4: Don't Be Afraid of the Dark
"Last time on Total Drama Explosion!" began Chris, "The contestants competed in a capture the flag challenge, but instead of flags they used their deadly mascots. Haha, Fun right? Both Jo and Joe seem to be butting heads with everyone, and although Gwen is trying to bury the hatchet with Courtney, Courtney still holds a grudge against her for stealing her boyfriend. In the end, Sadie cost the team the challenge after seeing Katie and squealing causing their mascot to run away, and this lead her to being the second voted off the final season of Total Drama. This time, the contestants will be pushed to their limits in another fear challenge. Who will win? Who will lose? Find out right here on Total...Drama...Explosion!!"

Theme Song plays

The camera pans to all the contestants in their cabins, sleeping peacefully. Until Chris blows his beloved air horn of course. The contestants screamed and ran out of their cabins.

"Leshawna don't do early" said Leshawna, "If you don't stop with the air horn you aren't gonna like it."

"I agree with home-girl gone horrid," said Heather, earning a glare from Leshawna.

"I thought we were friends?" said Leshawna.

"Do friends jump off of platforms and sacrifice challenges just to beat the living crap out of eachother? No, didn't think so," said Heather, remembering their time back in the Alps.

"Quiet you," said Chris, "So you all are familiar with the show not as popular as ours, Fear Factor, correct?" Most of the contestants nodded.

"Well basically, you are going to have to face your fears again...but you thought the first time was bad." said Chris.

"Ha, good thing I got over my fear of flying right guys?" said Owen, laughing nervously.

"Oh, just you wait." said Chris, "So we will take this a couple at a time, first up on our list...our buddy Owen!" Owen looked extremely nervous.

"Your challenge is that you aren't allowed to eat...for the rest of the night," Chris said with an evil laugh.

"WHAT?" said Owen, "No eating, b-but I can't survive!"

"You are going to have to, you will be watched the whole challenge by Chef. If you eat one thing, you will be out of the challenge." said Chris, "Moving on, Cameron, you have a very special date, one with Izzy, the giant spider."

Izzy began clapping her hands happily, and Cameron looked terrified.

Cameron (CONF): I-Izzy? But what if she kills me! And she's going to be dressed as the spider?!

"And Trent, you enjoy Mime parties right? Where there is not one, but seven mimes copying your every move? And their make-up is water-resistant. All you have to do is stay at the party for ten minutes," said Chris.

Trent (CONF): Crap

Trent was lead into a cabin full of mimes. "You have ten minutes to do this bro, don't mess up!" yelled Chris into the cabin. The rest of the contestants looked worried, since the first three fear challenges were so harsh.

"Alright next up on my list is...Bridgette! I'm pretty sure you have a date with the lonely woods. You must stay in there for six hours." said Chris.

"What? How is that any harder?" said Eva, still holding a grudge against the surfer chick.

"Why is this harder you ask? Well two reasons, one it is in the middle of the night, and two the island still maintains some of its' radioactive charm, so survival chances are slim" said Chris, "So Bridgette, have fun!"

"Uhh Awesome!" said Bridgette nervously.

Bridgette (CONF): I am so terrified. Chris is such a jerk

Bridgette started to walk into the woods. She froze as she was about to enter and turned around. She shot Geoff a look of worry, which was returned with a look of pity. The two smiled at eachother and Bridgette turned back around and walked into the woods.

"Well we have four challenges in the works! This is fun right?" said Chris, "So this time, we won't give Courtney all the pressure, she will get to go now like everyone else!"

"Oh...great!" said Courtney with fake enthusiasm.

"So you have a green jelly hot tub waiting for you, oh and warning, some of the green jelly mutated so there might be a green jelly mutant in there," said Chris. He lead the remaining contestants to a giant pool of green jelly. "Here is your stop!" said Chris.

Courtney looked horrified, when Alejandro came up and put a hand on her shoulder.

"You can do it chika! You are much stronger than a gelatanous desert." said Alejandro. Courtney smiled and slowly slipped into the green jelly.

"You have ten minutes, starting now!" said Chris.

Alejandro (CONF): I plan on not losing a challenge until the merge. I couldn't let Courtney cause us a loss and then be sent home! I need my allies. And I also love to see Heather's reactions to when I flirt with Courtney

Heather (CONF): What?! I thought Alejandro's little "fling" with Courtney was over? Like...not that I care...but like...GAHH

"Alright, we currently have five challenges going! Think that's enough for now?" asked Chris. The contestants all nodded their heads in agreement. "Good, I didn't think it was enough either!" said Chris in devious voice. He pulls out a clipboard and goes down the list. "Alright, next up for us is...Eva! Your challenge? You must be followed around by paparazzi without going crazy the rest of the challenge" said Chris. Eva began steaming.

Eva (CONF): Ok, so I wasn't scared about the challenge until now, I mean what do I have to fear. Maybe my anger goes a bit too far sometimes

A horde of paparazzi appeared and followed Eva off into the distance. She was screaming and running.

"Where are my paparazzi?" asked Dakota, "After my poor treatement last season I should at least get some of the action! If you don't remember I was a monster, a real Godzilla-esque monster, it took forever for that to wear off!"

"Actually Dakota, that brings me to your challenge. You must stay isolated in the cabins for five hours, with no interaction with anyone. No paparazzi, not even other contestants." said Chris smiling evilly.

Dakota (CONF): Nooooooooooooooo

The challenges began going downhill, as two ended as Trent ran out of the cabin screaming, followed by Courtney who climbed out of the pool shivering and covered in green jelly. The two were panting with their hands on their knees, when Chris walked up.

"Disappointed, thought you two would do better. That is so far zero out of two for the Phoenixes!" said Chris. Courtney growled and Trent looked disappointed.

"GRAWR" said Eva off in the distance. She was chasing the terrified horde of paparazzi with a giant log swung above her head like a battle gladiator. The contestants all stared at her with fear-filled eyes.

"Alright then, looks like Eva loses too!" said Chris.

"What? No way!" said Eva.

"Well you are attacking the paparazzi with a giant log...so..."said Chris. Eva glared at him and walked over to the loser bench, with a soaked Courtney and trembling Trent.

"Alright that's three losers so far...and we've only started seven challenges...dissapointed." said Chris, "Let's see how Cameron's date is going!" The scene shifted over to the Mess Hall, where Cameron and Izzy were chatting away about spiders. It turns out that was a common interest between the two.

"Oh my gosh I know!" said Izzy, "Tarantulas are soo overrated."

"I agree!" said Cameron, "Ever since you got me over my fear of spiders, I learned to love them, but tarantulas are way more hyped then they should be."

"Alright, well looks like point for the Pheonixes!!" said Chris. The Phoenixes still standing with Chris cheered.

"While Bridgette chills in the woods, Owen starves, and Dakota experiences the horrors of loneliness, we will get this show on the road. Brick, if you can make it ten minutes in the pitch black of night by yourself, you will get a point for the Foxes, understood?" said Chris. Brick gulped and saluted at him.

"Yes sir!" he said, walking into the woods.

Brick (CONF): Dark? The dark? Again? *a sprinkling noise is heard*

"And also let's take a shot at our newbs," said Chris, turning over to look at Suki and Joe. "Suki, your biggest fear? Being put on the spot. So you will be delivering a speech about one person on the island! And...go!"

"Uh...um..." started Suki, "so Chris McLean, he is fantastic and effervescent and the best host reality TV could ask for. His brilliance shines through the challenges and his magnanimous attitude lifts the melancholy spirit of the island."

The rest of the cast looked at her gaping.

Noah (CONF): Ok, Suki used some words that even I don't know

Joe (CONF): So new girl can speak. She's intelligent too. Looks like she is added to my list

The Foxes started cheering and high-fiving Suki while Chris wiped a tear from his eye.

"That was brilliant, really, fantastic," said Chris, "You weren't as scared as I thought you would be, but hey, you rocked it. Point Foxes!" While Chris pondered the next challenge, the scene shfiter to Bridgette sitting alone in the woods.

"Come on Bridge, you got this, the only reason you failed the first time was Cody," she said, trying to reassure herself. She heard a growl behind her and turned around. A mutated bear with three eyes and spikes growing out of its' back was standing behind her looking down at her.

"...Alright, slow and steady. I just need to stay in the-" she began, before the bear went ballistic," Ahhhh!!!!" Bridgette began sprinting towards the cabins, knocking Brick over in the process prompting a scream from Brick.

"Ahh!" he said, as he saw the bear, and the two ran out of the woods, where Chris was going through his clipboard.

"I was wondering how that was going," said Chris, "Bridgette, Brick, you both fail."

Both looked down and walked away, meanwhile, Dakota and Owen were not doing any better.

"Why me!" said Dakota, "I don't deserve this lonliness, where is Sam?!" She pulled out her favorite perfume, strawberry scented, and spritzed it on.

"I-Is that strawberry?" said Owen to himself from outside the cabin, the worn out, strarving boy slowly made his way up to the door of the cabin, and before Dakota could stop him opened the door.

"Noo! All that alone time for nothing!" said Dakota angrily, "Owen!" But Owen couldn't hear her, he had gone into his "hunger hulk" phase, he barged back out the door and towards the mess hall, where he began eating everything in sight.

"Wow...just wow," said Chris, "looks like Dakota and Owen also both lose. So far only Cameron and Suki have scored points. Next on my list of rejects is Lindsay, I believe you have a make-over waiting." He gestured over to Chef who was standing there with a pair of scissors and an evil smirk. Lindsay began backing away but Heather pushed her forward.

"Come on Lindsiot, take one for the team," said Heather angrily. Chef took a step towards her and she bolted for the woods.

"Alrighty then, no point there, next up is Scott, who needs to face his fear, Fang." said Chris.

Scott went pale at the sound of the name, he collected himself and stepped forward.

"You just have to hug him," said Chris. Fang stood there teeth bared with an evil look on his face.

Scott stepped forward, but Fang made a growl and Scott turned around and made a run for it.

"You all are such-" Chris began before his phone rang.

"What? Hm? What do you mean there is no time to finish the challenge? So what if it's just 22 minutes? Mmhm. Fine" said Chris, talking on the phone with the producers. "Apparently, I don't have enough time to scare the living crap out of all of you so...the Frozen Foxes win!" he said.

"What?" said Courtney angrily, "We were tied 1-1!"

"Yes, that you are, but you, Scott, Lindsay, Trent and Bridgette all didn't complete your challenge. For the other team, the only ones to fail were Eva, Brick, Dakota and Owen." said Chris.

"That's because we had more challenges!" said Courtney.

"You are going to have to deal," said Chris, "have fun at your first elimination!"

At dinner, the Phoenixes were all discussing who to eliminate. Well, more like listening to Lightning rant.

"...and just when Lightning thought Lightning was not on a team of losers," said Lightning.

"You didn't even have to try and face your fears," said Courtney, pulling a glob of jelly out of her ear.

"That's cause Lightning is scared of nothing!" said Lightning confidently.

"That's not what your aura says," said Dawn, appearing next to Lightning.

Lightning (CONF): Sha-creepy

"I say we eliminate Scott," said Zoey, "no offense but you are kind of mean."

"I didn't see you competing in today's challenge little miss perfect," retorted Scott angrily.

"Fine, who do you think should be eliminated then," replied Leshawna.

"Obvious choice, a big threat that can be done without, B," said Scott.This prompted B to spit out his food.

B (CONF): *angrily shakes head*

"No!" said Dawn, sticking up for her friend, "you are the traitor, the liar, it should be you who goes. Alejandro, Joe, and Heather are enough, we don't need more negative aura on this island." Dawn and Scott locked in a glare.

"Guys, we don't want to begin a losing streak," said Bridgette, "and if we fight like this then we will."

"Good point Bridgette," said Gwen, putting her hand on her shoulder.

"No, I think that was a good point Bridgette," said Courtney, putting her hand on Bridgette's other shoulder while glaring at Gwen. The two also locked on a glare, with Bridgette stuck in the middle.

"My great-great Uncle Marshall invented glaring. Before that, if you were mad at someone you had to just punch them in the face. How do you think boxing was invented" said Staci matter-of-factly.

Scott (CONF): Alright, I need to save my butt

"Staci, your lies are getting really irritating," said Scott.

"Lies?" said Staci, looking confused.

"You can't think that we believe all of what you say is true," said Trent. Scott smirked at his result.

At the elimination ceremony, the Phoenixes sat there nervously, particularly Staci. Dawn was still glaring at Scott, and Duncan and Gwen were holding hands prompting Courtney to try and unsuccesfully cuddle up with Trent. This earned her a smirk from Gwen and a look of terror from Trent. Bridgette shook her head in disappointment.

"Alright Phoenixes, your first loss. Let's see who is safe and who is gone! The first marshmallow of the evening goes to Lindsay!" said Chris. Lindsay stood up, walked over to the campfire pit and grabbed her marshmallow.

"Eeh!" she said, as she went to stand beside Chris, "This is so awesome."

"The next safe are Katie, Trent, and Harold!" said Chris.

"To no surprise," said Harold. Katie and Trent high-fived causing DJ to have a worried look on his face.

"DJ! You are also safe buddy, as are Cameron, Alejandro and Zoey." said Chris. Zoey hugged Cameron and both went to receive their marshmallows, as did DJ and Alejandro.

"Next are Dawn, Duncan, Heather, Leshawna, Gwen and Lightning." said Chris. The six cheered as they walked up to get their marshmallow. Duncan grabbed Gwen's hand and Leshawna came over and gave Harold a big hug.

"Bridgette, Courtney, and Joe." said Chris. Bridgette and Courtney smiled at eachother and walked up, and Joe looked angry.

Joe (CONF): No one better have voted me, if they did they are going down

Cameron (CONF): I hope Joe doesn't realize I voted for him. He is meaner than Jo and Scott put together! I would never let him in my bubble

"Now you three all racked up a lot of votes," said Chris to Staci, B, and Scott, "and one of you is going home tonight. But that person is not.............Scott." Scott let out a sigh of relief, and he smirked at Dawn as he walked up to get his marshmallow.

"Staci, B, I hate to inform you that one of you will be eliminated tonight," said Chris, "and the final marshmallow of the evening goes to...

"Bye bye Beverly" said Scott, waving.

Scott (CONF): Even I didn't see that coming. It must have been due to Heather or Joe. But if those two think they can out-villain me they are wrong, because you think I was bad last year? That was nothing, this time I am showing them whose really boss. Chris thinks he can just bully me with Fang? Well he has got another thing coming, everyone does

Chapter 5: Return of the Film Lot
"Last time on Total...Drama...Explosion!" began Chris, "38 competitors remained in our phobia challenge. We had some success, but lots of hilarious failures. In the end, the producers wanted me to end the challenge due to each episode having to be a 'certain length', so the Frozen Foxes were deemed the winners...finally! The Phoenixes had to boot someone, and although it looked like Staci was getting the boot, it was Beverly who ended up being the third loser in our final season. This time, a whole new twist will be introduced, adding to the epic-ness that makes this the best season, ever! Stay tuned, on Total...Drama...Explosion!"

Theme Song Plays

"Why are we on this nasty bus?" asked Dakota, finding a sweaty sock attached to her back.

"That is the question," said Heather. She made a grossed out face at the sight of the sock.

"I think it's obvious. He's going to take us downtown to an abanonded ware house and just kill us," said Izzy, "Like in Murder-house Four, when the psychotic reality show host tricked the contstants into following him to the beach before they were kliled.

"Uh huh, my great-great grandfather invented warehouses, before that people just had to store things in the woods." said Staci.

"No way! But yeah, I saw in my horoscope something bad would happen today," said Izzy, pulling a finger across her throat and making a cutting noise.

Courtney (CONF): Alright, I see why compulisive liar chick was voted out first last time, but how did Izzy make it so far in the first season? I'm starting to wish the plane had finished the job back in season 3

"Well if Chris has any suprrises, he is going to have to deal with me personally," said Duncan. Bridgette pointed out in the distance that she saw something familiar. It was the abandoned film lot.

Joe (CONF): Things just got interesting

The bus pulled up and standing there was none other than Chris McLean.

"Welcome contestants!" said Chris.

"Are we switching sets?" asked Suki in a quiet voice.

"Well Ms. "shy"," said Chris, putting air quotes around shy, "Yes and no. This season, we are having a rotation. To get the best of all the seasons, every three challenges we will switch locations. That means..."

"Three island, three movie set, and three world!" said Beth.

"Correct!" said Chris, "But interrupt me again and a certain nerd will not be making it to the first travel phase! As I was saying, every three challenges, we will change the theme, and the cycle will go on. Island, Movie Set, World, Island, Movie Set, etc..."

"Wow, what a great idea," said Noah sarcastically. He rolled his eyes as Chris glared at him.

Justin (CONF): I don't want to be back here! This cursed place almost wrecked my looks. It was so bad I was almost...*gulp*...ugly

Bridgette (CONF): Being back here makes me appreciate the fact that Geoff and I are on different teams. I can't get distracted this time.

"So today, our movie genre is...Adventure!" said Chris. He tossed swords to all the contestants and lead them to the a giant fake mountain.

"How did we not notice this before?" said Harold.

"This looks just like the mountain course in Mario Kart Swii!!" said Sam.

"I love that game!" said Harold, high-fiving Sam.

"Great, because one nerd wasn't enough." said Duncan.

"Alright, so your guys goal is to get to the treasure somewhere deep insid- I mean on the mountain. There will be lots of obstacles along the way so don't expect this to be easy." said Chris.

"What's with the swords?" said Duncan.

"Oh you will see," said Chris.

"My great-great-great-great-great uncle twice removed invented seeing, before that, people just bumped into eachother all the time and went like this," said Staci, sticking out her arms and waddling around.

Sierra (CONF): Ok, so maybe I am not a fan of all the Total Drama contestants...

"And...go!" said Chris. The contestants all ran towards the mountain set and began their trek up. The path quickly came to a split.

"Come on team, we are going left," said Joe.

"Who put you in charge?" asked Zoey defensively.

"Listen Red, you guys need someone who can keep you organized. Type A Crazy, Scott, Heather and Ale-whatever all aren't up for the job, you need someone with a brain," said Joe. This prompted the rest of his team to glare at him.

The Frozen Foxes chose right and began running down the path past the arguing Phoenixes.

"Guys, I think we should like, go right. I mean remember what happened in the Amazon? If they are wrong at least were both wrong," said Katie.

"Who knew you actually had a brain!" said Joe, "I thought Sadie had that. But no we are going left, because they are ahead." Katie began crying at the thought of Sadie, because she had been previously eliminated, and Courtney put her hand on Katie's shoulder to comfort him.

Trent (CONF): This guy is a jerk

Cameron (CONF): I feel like some higher being just threw together Scott and Jo and Joe was the result

Leshawna (CONF): If this jerk thinks he can treat us this way, he is going to be the first to go next vote

The Phoenixes began running to the left, and in the meantime, the Foxes came across their first obstacle. There was a large gap in the set, with a vine.

"Alright, we will have to swing across," said Jo, grabbing the vine, "I will take the lead." She took the vine and swung across the open gap. She tossed the vine back to Eva who also swung across.

"Hmph you call that a swing?" said Jo with a smirk.

"You know what you Sue Sylvester wannabe? I am not someone you want to mess with so lay off," said Eva fuming. One by one the contestants all swung across. When Tyler stepped up to the vine and swung across, the vine broke and he fell down the set below. Beth and Izzy both hadnt't swung yet, and looked at eachother worriedly.

"Tyler, no!" said Noah and Geoff in unison. The two ran to the side and looked over to see Tyler being dragged away by an unknown source.

"What are we going to do?" said Cody.

"It's ok Cody, I'll comfort you," said Sierra running up and pulling Cody into a tight hug. Cody looked up.

"Sorry, this isn't really best friend behavior," said Sierra and loosened up, causing a slight smile to come across Cody's face.

"What about us?" said Beth, standing with Izzy.

"We are NOT leaving them behind," said Brick.

"We can't stay, the Phoenixes are on the move as we speak," said Blaineley.

"They are people, we gotta respect that and help em out," said Anne Maria.

"We're leaving and that is final," said Jo, and the team reluctantly continued running. In the distance, the Foxes heard Beth and Izzy scream.

"We gotta go see if they are ok!" said Mike. Brick nodded in agreement and the two ran back to Beth and Izzy gone.

Mike gasped and became Manatoba Smith at the site of his missing friends. He ran back to his team.

"Come on Sheilas, we gotta get a move on. Some oogity boogity's out there are out to get our teamies, we gotta get on the move," said Mike in his Austrlian accent.

"...What's with him?" said Eva.

"You get used to it," said Jo. The Phoenixes were not having much more luck.

"Uh I told you guys, I like don't think this is the right way," said Katie. Lindsay nodded in agreement.

"Uh-huh, yeah, I mean this color scheme is all off, that green definitely does not go with that brown, so we can't be going the right way!" said Lindsay. Courtney face-palmed at the blonde's remark.

Courtney (CONF): You know, maybe this could work for me...if we lose, and everyone aims their votes at Lindsay, I could persuay enough people to blindside Gwen!

Gwen (CONF): I am so glad Courtney and I are beginning to be friends again

As they continued, they came across a steep downward hill. They began trekking down the hill when Lightning stepped on a switch hidden in the ground. Behind the Phoenixes, a giant boulder dropped down and began rolling down after them. The Phoenixes began sprinting down the hill.

"Uh-uh, Lightning don't do rocks," said Lightning.

The contestants were sprinting down the hill, when Dawn saw that Joe was about to intentionally trip Leshawna.

"Leshawna, look out!" said Dawn, speeding up and tackling Joe.

Dawn (CONF): And I thought Scott had a bad aura. I have had enough of these traitors!

The two stumbled on the ground and got caught in a rut on the path. The two were about to be crushed by the boulder. The Phoenixes heads turned, their friends were about to be crushed by the giant rock. Their eyes widened, and they lost site of the path. This caused Staci, who was in the back, to trip and stumble over the rest of the contestants. They all tumbled to the bottom of the hill. A ramp suddenly rose out of the hill and the rock shot off into the distance. The contestants stood up and brushed themselves off.

"Oh that's it, scrawny evil wannabe is gonna get it," said Leshwana, pushing her sleeves up. She turned around to march up the hill, but Joe and Dawn were nowhere to be found.

"Dawn? Dawn?!" yelled Zoey, running up the hill. The other Phoenixes minus Heather, Scott, and Courtney followed.

"We need to get going!" said Scott, "I'm tired of being on the losing team."

"It was your fault!" said Cameron in retaliation.

"I agree with ginger over there, she is creepy anyways and he is annoying," said Heather snobishly.

"There's nothing we can do guys, they are dead, we are just going to have to accept that and move on," said Courtney. The other contestants turned to her gaping.

"What! I only said what everyone else was thinking," said Courtney. The Phoenixes reluctantly continued down the path. The two paths merged and led to the entrance of a temple. The Phoenixes and Foxes arrived at the same time.

"Great, we lost our lead, good going guys!" said Jo.

"Hey uggo, this is a team we are all responsible," said Blaineley, glaring at Jo.

"Well what do we do now?" said Sierra, walking up to the temple door.

"Hey look, something is written on the wall!" said Gwen, running up and dusting off the wall next to the door.

''"To open the temple and claim the treasures, you will have to go through extreme measures, Pick your three strongest players and one you can spare, and the door will open so you can go in there." ''said Gwen.

"Who can we spare?" said Manitoba Smith, "Fattie over there isn't much of a help." He pointed at Owen.

"Hey! I am very helpful!" said Owen,.

"I agree with Mike," said Jo, "As for strongest, myself, Geoff, and Sierra will go," she said. The three nodded heads and stepped forward.

"Hello? Have we all forgotten that I won season one?" said Owen.

"That was lucky chubs," replied Jo. Owen turned and sadly walked towards the temple door.

"Well it's obvious who is to spare on our team," said Scott, pointing at Staci.

"What?! My Great-Great-Great Aunt Tallulah invented temples! Uh-uh," said Staci.

"No way!" said Lindsay, "That is so cool!".

"Too bad, you are our one who we can spare," said Scott, "as for strongest, let's pick some people who haven't really contirbuted to the cause yet, DJ, Zoey and Duncan, you three are going in.

"What? Me?" said Zoey.

Zoey (CONF): I got picked! As a strong player! This is so exciting, I love having friends

DJ and Duncan fist bumped. The eight chosen stepped forward, and the temple door opened. After they entered, the door shut behind them and closed.

"Alright, now what?" said Jo impatiently.

"Cool it girl, we don't want to anger any temple spirits in here," said DJ. He started shivering.

"Look, a sign!" said Geoff, pointing in the distance. The sign stood between two pedastals.

"Put those you wish to spare on the platform, and see how the path ahead will transform" read Geoff. Staci and Owen stood on their respective platforms, and the floor under them dropped and they dissapeared screaming. The path ahead, that was previously blocked by a landslide, was suddenly clear.

"Alright...that was creepy," said Duncan.

"Let's move!" said Jo, grabbing Sierra and Geoff and beginning down the path.

"Yeah guys we have to go!" said Zoey. They ran down the path and came across the treasure room. In the middle of the room stood another sign.

"''For the treasure to be revealed, you must compete and do not yield, otherwise the one you chose will soon be filled with saddened woes. The one you spared will not appreciate, for that is who the loser eliminates." ''read Zoey.

"So that means were all safe!" said Sierra. The six began cheering.

"Poor Owen though," said DJ. Suddenly, platforms began sticking out of the walls of the treasure room all the way to the top where the immunity treasure lied.

"I guess that means we compete to get the treasure, and either Staci or Owen will be eliminated based off of who doesn't get it." said Sierra.

"Genius," said Jo sarcastically, "now let's move!" The six started bounding up the platforms. Jo and DJ immediately took the lead for each team, with Zoey, Sierra, Duncan, and Geoff close behind. They jumped from platform to platform. They were getting pretty high up when Geoff slipped. The only other person on the platform was Duncan.

"Help me bro!" said Geoff, "I'm going to fall!"

"You know, if we were on the same team maybe, but..." said Duncan.

"I can't believe you!" said Zoey, turning around and jumping back to the platform Geoff was hanging off of. She ran over and helped him up.

"Wow...that was not cool bro," said Geoff.

"Hey, some of you people seem to forget this is a competition," said Duncan. This prompted Zoey to shoot him a dirty look.

"Hey, it's not like when you went crazy you wouldn't have left Cameron in a hearttbeat," he continued.

Duncan (CONF): Ok so maybe I feel a little bad about not helping Geoff, but hey, it's a game, there is a winner

Jo managed to reach the treasure first, once DJ began to slow down due to his fear of heights. Jo grabbed the treasure, winning another challenge for the foxes. "Woohoo!" cheered Jo, waving the treasure in the air. Suddenly, the temple set began crumbling and the six made a run for it. The scene the flashed to the Gilded Chris ceremony.

"So what happened to Dawn, Joe, Izzy, and Beth?" said Bridgette.

"Oh there was a trap door that Dawn and Joe fell down, and Chef kidnapped Izzy and Beth," replied Chris.

"Ok now that's just cruel," said Heather.

"Well, I'm not sure if DJ, Duncan and Zoey conveyed this to you yet, but the one you chose to spare is the one not receiving a Gilded Chris tonight! That's right, Staci is eliminated!" said Chris.

"B-but...I..." began Staci.

"Walk of shame for you!" said Chris, grinning evilly. Staci sighed as Chef threw her into the Lam-o-sine.

"That's four competitors down, a ton more to go! What will be next week's movie genre? Will Zoey forgive Duncan for almost letting Geoff fall? Will Cody ever actually love Sierra? All good questions, that probably won't be answered next time on Total...Drama...Explosion!!!!!!" said Chris.

Chapter 6: Puzzle it Up
*Note: this chapter is to be written by my assistant writer Jax as a test*

"Last time on Total Drama Explosion," began Chris, "Our remaining contestants moved to cycle two out of three, the film lot. They had to face an adventure set challenge, where they continuously lost players throughout the challenge. It was shown that Zoey's grudge against Scott holds strong, and the classic competitors got a look at Manitoba Smith, one of Mike's multiple personalities. Joe and Scott both are gaining lots of enemies. Will they survive long enough to even be classified as villains? Will Owen forgive his team for calling him weak? Will Suki ever speak? You can maybe find this out in this episode of Total...Drama...Explosion!"

Theme Song

The campers were seen eating in the mess hall after the theme song ended. Zoey was seen glaring at Scott on the Fiery Phoenixes’ table. DJ, Dawn, and Gwen were all talking and laughing together. A butterfly landed on Dawn’s shoulder and she greeted it. Her facial expression suddenly went from laughing to troubled. “What’s wrong?” asked DJ.

“The butterfly told me that great danger will come to one of you! I don’t want one of my dearest friends to have to endure anything negative!” said Dawn.

“Uh..hey, don’t worry about it. I mean, what would a butterfly know, anyways?” challenged Gwen.

“You would be surprised...” trailed Dawn, worried. A cockroach scrambled across the floor as a transition to the Frozen Foxes’ table.

“Alright, Foxes! There’s one way to win this game, and that’s to play hard, and play dirty! We did a good job of that the past two challenges, and we are going to keep our streak going,” commanded Jo, standing on the table.

"I disagree, Ma'am. The only way to win this game is with integrity and honor. It’s not worth winning if you don't do it right!” said Brick, standing up.

“Yeah wrong. Sit down,” said Jo.

“You are not the leader of this team,” argued Brick.

“Excuse me, General Wet-pants?” retorted Jo. The team began to laugh, and Brick took his seat in humiliation.

“No, Brick’s like...right!” said Dakota, standing up. Brick smiled in approval. “It’s clear that I’m the leader of this team!” Brick’s smile turned to a scowl.

Suki looked like she was about to say something, but before she could, Geoff stood up and said, “C’mon guys! We don’t need a leader. The best team is, y’know, a team. I say we hold a team party in order to get to know each other better.”

“Parties are lame,” said Eva.

“It’s cool. Just an idea,” said Geoff, taking his seat again. At this, Chris made his entrance to the mess hall. “Welcome to day two of the film lot, suckers—I mean, contestants.” he said.

“I like cherry suckers!” said Lindsay.

“Right. Well, meet me at the puzzle movie film lot in 15 minutes, starting…now!” said Chris, looking at his

watch and then driving away.

“Lightnin’s gonna be the first one there!” said Lightning, running out of the mess hall.

“Oh, no, he won’t.” said Eva and Jo at the same time. They glared at each other and followed Lightning out of the mess hall. There was then a cutaway to the puzzle movie lot. Chris was standing by himself. He checked his watch and looked up.

“What’s taking them so long?!” Chris wondered aloud. At this moment, a cloud could be seen in the distance, coming towards Chris. When Chris realized the cloud was Eva, Jo, and Lightning in a footrace. He began to run too, but it was too late, Chris got run over.

“Yes! Lightnin’ wins! Sha-booyah!” said Lightning in triumph.

“No way, I won!” yelled Eva.

“It was clearly me. You two were miles behind!” said Jo. They began squabbling until Chris broke them up. The other campers slowly filed in until everybody had arrived.

Joe (CONF): Eva, Jo, and Lightning are all too obsessed with each other and their own physical abilities to even think about the game. This is good. I can exploit that.

Joe walked up to Lightning and pulled him aside. “Listen, Lightning,” said Joe in an innocent voice. “I’ve seen you fighting against Eva and Jo a lot lately, and I always think it’s so unfair to see two against one.”

“Lightnin’ can handle it! He can take anything!” said Lightning.

“I’m sure you can, but wouldn’t it be nice to have an ally?” said Joe.

“Lightnin’ can TAKE it! Did you hear him? Lightnin’ doesn’t need NOBODY,” said Lightning, pushing Joe aside and walking away. Scott was spying on the two the whole time.

Scott (CONF): Crash. And. Burn. (laughs)

“Alright contestants! Ready for your challenge? Good! Today, as you know, will be a puzzle movie theme. Similar to “Outception” or “Sherlock Bones”. Your challenge is a scavenger hunt! Each team will get a list of ten items they need to find around the film lot. At the end, you will use all of your pieces of evidence---items on the scavenger hunt list---to determine the criminal. And yes, the criminal IS one of the contestants! Get going, this challenge starts now!” said Chris. He gave a list to each team.

“Hmm…let’s split up into pairs. Zoey with Trent, Scott with Lindsay, Lightning with Leshawana, Katie with Joe, Harold with Heather, Gwen with Duncan, Dawn with DJ, me and Cameron, and Alejandro with Bridgette,” said Courtney.

“That’s only nine pairs,” said Zoey.

“Well, Cameron and I can take two,” said Courtney. “Let’s go! We are not losing to these stupid foxes again”

In the meantime, the Frozen Foxes were not getting along as well.

“Every man for himself!”

“Buddy system!”

“Throw the challenge! It’s too harrrrrrrd!”

“Let Lightnin’ take it all!”

“FOXES!” yelled Jo. Everybody stopped talking. “Remember what I said at the mess hall. Play hard, and play dirty. Break!”

“Ugh. I don’t do scavenger hunts,” said Dakota.

“It’s pretty easy, princess,” said Noah.

“You think I’m a princess?! Thank you thank you thank you!!” said Dakota. “In fact that reminds me, I think I’ll call the paparazzi right now!” She pulled out her cell phone and called Celebrity Manhunt. Afterwards, she ran off happily.

“Did somebody say paparazzi?” said Justin. Geoff pointed in the direction Dakota ran off, and Justin followed. Dakota was shown posing for the paparazzi. Justin arrived, pushed her out of the way, and started posing. The paparazzi started to take pictures of him. He removed his shirt and poured water down himself.

Dakota (CONF): Are you kidding me?! Those are my paparazzi! NOBODY takes my paparazzi. NOBODY. (growls)

Dakota tried to turn the attention back to her, but they were more interested in Justin. Humiliated, she stormed away. She pulled Cody, Mike, and Owen aside while they were looking for items on the scavenger hunt list. She posed before telling them what she was there for. “Listen. As you all know, I am the beautiful and photogenic Dakota, made for beauty and goddess of the camera. I’m giving you three boys a BIG opportunity. How would you like to…wait for it…be in an ALLIANCE with the star of the show?!”

“I don't see Justin?” said Owen.

Owen (CONF): Okay, it slipped.

“No, you tub of lard! It’s ME!” Dakota growled.

“Hey, I’m in!” said Cody.

Cody (CONF): Since CLEARLY the flirting and the I’d-do-anything-for-you didn’t work with Gwen, my new plan is to get with Dakota and make her jealous….then get her when she’s tender! (chuckles) I am SO good with girls. I just hope it doesn't end in Sierra murdering Dakota

“Sure, I’ll do it,” said Mike.

Mike (CONF): I miss Zoey

“Alright! First alliance of the season!” said Owen.

“Good! Your first order of business is to get everyone to eliminate Justin,” said Dakota. The guys looked at each other warily. There was then a cutaway to a montage of everybody finding their pieces of evidence. Afterwards, each team only had to find one last piece: a fingerprint. Everybody was turning the film lot upside-down looking for it.

“C’mon, it’s gotta be here somewhere,” said Blaineley.

“Great observation,” said Noah sarcastically. Dakota pulled Owen aside.

“How’s mission take out the hottie going?” she asked.

“Great! Between me, Cody, and Mike, we have half the team against Justin,” said Owen.

“Good, good. My paparazzi will be back to me soon enough,” Dakota said. The camera then showed Dawn and DJ looking together.

“I’m still worried about what that butterfly told me,” said Dawn.

“Maybe he’s just joking around. What’s the worst that could happen? Butterflies aren’t fortune tellers!”said DJ.

“Oh, but they are! Once, when I was in second grade, I—“ said Dawn, before she was interrupted by a cry from the other team.

“Guys! Guys! I found the fingerprint!” yelled Izzy. “C’mon, let’s get it!” The Frozen Foxes ran to get the last piece of evidence.

“Come on! Now the other team is ahead! This is, like, SO unfair,” said Katie.

“Pick it up, men!” said Brick, looking under a couch cushion. Trent picked up his guitar to play a song, when he noticed something stuck to it.

“Hey! I found our fingerprint!” said Trent. “It was stuck to my guitar.”

“Woohoo! You go, white boy!” said Leshawna. Both teams were seen putting together their puzzles, trying to figure out the mystery.

“Hey, where’s Justin?” said Beth.

“Off with MY paparazzi,” said a bitter Dakota.

“I’m sure he didn’t mean any harm! Maybe he just wanted a little time to be famous, too,” said Beth.

“Yeah, well, he didn’t have to take it from me!” said Dakota, angrily storming away.

“Touchy!” said Anne Maria, looking at herself in a mirror, "I don't need paparazzi to know I got the goods."

“I think I’ve got it!” said Suki, surprising everybody.

“What’d you get?” said Sam.

“I think Scott committed the crime!” she said. Suki continued to explain each piece of evidence in turn. This made sense to her teammates. They all nodded in agreement until Noah chimed in. “I think it was Sierra,” said Noah.

“Why? Suki’s idea makes more sense,” said Cody. Noah explained one crucial fact that Suki was missing; however, there were some holes to Noah’s idea, too.

“Hey! My buddy Noah’s always right! Let’s just go with his!” said Owen. The team came to an agreement.

Suki sank into her chair in embarrassment. The other team quickly found Scott guilty of the crime.

“Alright contestants, time to give me your accusations!” said Chris. Each team presented their ideas. “Well, one of you is wrong, and the other is right. Shocker, huh? Anyway, the winner of the challenge is…The Fiery Phoenixes!” The Phoenixes cheered while the Foxes glared at Noah, who looked dismayed. There was a cutaway to the Gilded Chris Ceremony.

“Well, you guys sucked! How’d you get Sierra? That doesn’t even make sense!” laughed Chris. “Well, one of you will be walking the dock of shame, and will never be able to come back. EVER. Fortunately, that person is not Blaineley or Izzy. It’s also not Brick, Cody, Dakota, Jo, or Tyler. Geoff, you’re also safe. Sam, Beth, Anne Maria, Gilded Chris's for you too. Mike, you will also be getting an award. Suki, Eva you’re safe, too. And……Sierra. Owen, Justin, Noah, one of you is going home tonight. That person is not…Owen. Justin, Noah, this is the final Gilded Chris of the night. Whoever does not receive this Gilded Chris will have to immediately walk the walk of shame and never return. Ev-er. The final Gilded Chris Award goes to

Noah. Justin, time to go,” Chris said.

“What? But…I’m beautiful!” said Justin.

“Too beautiful for your own good, buster. NOBODY takes MY paparazzi,” growled Dakota.

“See ya, wouldn’t wanna be ya! Huh huh,” said Sam.

“Bye Justin!” said Beth. Justin hung his head as he boarded the boat of losers.

Chris then closed the episode, saying, “What a shocking elimination ceremony! Who will Dakota’s alliance eliminate next? Will Brick and Jo ever settle their conflict? Was the butterfly Dawn talked to telling the truth? Find out all this and more, next time, on Total! Drama! Explosion!”

Chapter 7: Harry Potter and the Gilded Chris Award
"Last time on Total Drama Explosion!" began Chris, "The contestants had their minds bended in the Puzzle genre challenge. Suki finally tried to benefit the team, but sadly her correct theory about the criminal was rejected by Noah. Despite Noah costing the Foxes the challenge, it was Justin who went home after Dakota got angry at him for stealing her paparazzi. In the Paranormal movie genre the contestants will see what it's like when they are truly pushed to their limits. Who will win? Who will lose? Find out on Total...Drama...Explosion!"

Theme Song

The boys woke up in the guys trailer cramped.

Trent (CONF): Ok, not that I don't love being around my boys, the cabin was a LOT roomier back in Total Drama Action.

Owen was talking to Cody and Mike about their decision to ally with Dakota.

"I feel bad voting off Justin," said Owen, "I mean, that guy is smoking."

"Yeah...uh-huh..." said Cody. Cody had an awkward glance at Noah, but he didn't notice. Mike was too busy staring out the trailer window to participate in the conversation.

Mike (CONF): Zoey...

In the meantime, most of the other guys were watching Scott and Joe go at it.

"I'm new, you're used, get over it," said Joe.

"You know, when you get voted off, and that is going to happen soon, I'm going to throw a party, and everyone will be invited, even scrawny boy Cameron over there," replied Scott.

Cameron (CONF): Woo party!

Joe (CONF): Ok, so maybe I'm not the best at the whole "Manipulating" or "Befriending", but I will do anything it takes to win this game...anything

Scott (CONF): Pappy always told me to keep your friends close and your enemies closer, but I am keeping that new guy Joe as far away as possible

In the girls cabin, they weren't getting along any better.

"Seriously, you girls are a bunch of fru fru wimps," said Jo. Eva nodded in agreement.

"Look man-ladies, you aren't even on our team, so back off," replied Heather, one fist balled up.

"Guys, can we please just get along?" asked Gwen.

"Leshawna is sick of you too," said Leshawna, "Y'all are just mad you lost the last challenge."

"Oh really is that it homegirl? That's it, you are DEAD," said Eva. Her and Jo began advancing just as Chris blew the challenge horn.

"Thank goodness!" said Zoey, rushing out of the trailer. The other girls followed.

Courtney (CONF): One Eva was bad enough, but Jo is just Eva with some social skills, together, I might just lose it

Heather (CONF): Man-lady is going down

The contestants walked outside their trailers to see Chris standing there dressed as a wizard.

"Hello Contestants! Today's genre is Wizardy! I'm sure you have all seen the Mary Potter movies," said Chris, before he was interrupted by Harold.

"Oh my gosh are we getting magic powers? Just like in Samurai Sword 4: When Worlds Collide?" asked Harold excited.

"No way! I beat that game like three times!" replied Sam. The two high-fived, and Duncan walked up and gave both of them wedgies.

Duncan (CONF): Hey, twice the nerd, twice the fun

"No Harold, remember we have a budget, and most of it is used on me," began Chris, "anyways, today's challenge will be the Castle of Terror. Your challenge is to look in the haunted castle, used in the Mary Potter movies, to find your team's crest. If any team member leaves the scary castle, they may no longer participate. Be warned though, Chef is in there." The scene shifts and shows Chef dressed as Voldemort standing in the castle.

"Alright losers, get ready and...go!" said Chris. The contestants all ran into the castle.

"Alright I say we go downstairs," said Courtney, "this is Chris we are talking about, he will probably put it in the most cliche spot, the Dungeon."

"Good plan Cour-," began Gwen, before she was cut off by Courtney's angry glare.

"Sheesh," replied Gwen, blowing her hair out of her face.

"Well I also agree with Courtney," said Bridgette. The two shared a smile, and the team headed down the stairs. The Foxes on the other hand weren't having an easy time agreeing on which way to go.

"I say the only way to go is up. It makes sense I mean...winners end up on top, and like we are winners," said Anne Maria, spraying her hair with hairspray.

"Yeah, because that makes sense," said Noah sarcastically.

"I say we take this hunt systematically," said Suki quietly. The Foxes turned their attention to her.

"We split up, in groups of three to avoid anyone getting captured," said Suki.

"Good idea mousey," replied Jo.

"Actually-" Noah began cynically before he was interrupted by Jo.

"Hey, we listened to you last time and lost the challenge smarty pants, so this time you can keep it quiet," replied Jo.

Noah (CONF): Hmph, Whatever *rolls eyes*

Back with the Phoenixes, they were systematically searching the downstairs when something went wrong.

"Uh...like...where is DJ?" asked Katie. The contestants looked around to find DJ nowhere to be found. They split up among the various corridors of the dungeon to try and find DJ, which was a fatal mistake. Voldemort Chef appeared at the end of a corridor where Leshawna and Lindsay were headed.

"Uh huh, Leshawna don't do nose-less freaks," said Leshawna. She and Lindsay screamed as the screen went black.

"This doesn't feel right, the vibe is all wrong," said Dawn as she was leading Gwen and Katie down a differet pathway. "I keep getting this 'crest-y' vibe and it's getting in the way of DJ's aura."

"Wait like team crest?" asked Gwen excitedly, "Oh yeah! Lead us there Dawn."

"Not until we find DJ," replied Dawn. Katie looked on jealous.

"Oh yeah well...I can feel DJ's aura too, uh-huh," said Katie. Dawn's eyes widened with excitement.

"You are an aura reader too?" asked Dawn.

"Uh...yeah...sure..." replied Katie. Gwen snickered which earned her a glare from Katie. As Dawn lead the girls down the corridors, something lurked behind them. Back up with the Foxes, one team of three, Anne Maria, Blaineley and Tyler were not having much luck.

"Ugh, I hate this stupid challenge, on this stupid show, on this stupid film lot, in this stupid castle..." ranted Blaineley, as she walked up the spiral staircase.

"Quit complaining blondie," replied Anne Maria non-chalantly.

"Yeah, we are here to win it!" yelled Tyler, "Oh yeah!" The three get to the top of the staircase and enter a room, that turns out to be a maze completely full of mirrors. Blaineley and Anne Maria get distracted by their images, leaving Tyler to trudge on into the maze alone.

"Oh yeah baby, look at all that," said Anne Maria.

"Yeah uh...no thanks," replied Blaineley, "quite frankly that should never be seen by anyone who still wants to be able to see." The two began cat-fighting when Voldemort Chef swooped down from the ceiling scooping both girls up in his bag. He grinned, and showed that Leshawna and Lindsay had been caught as well. He held up the number five to the camera, which Tyler saw in one of the mirrors, and left the room searching for more victims.

"Uh oh, this is bad," said Tyler to himself, "He's got my Lindsay!" Tyler begins heading after Voldemort Chef for revenge. Another group of three is also not having much luck.

"...and that is why on my fifth birthday I got banned from Chook E. Cheese's, and..." rambled Sierra, with an annoyed Noah and Cody walking behind her.

"How do you put up with this?" whispered Noah to Cody.

"Eh...you get kind of used to it," replied Cody in a hushed tone. Noah motioned for Cody to sneak away with him through a different corridor, and Cody first looked at Sierra who was walking away, then at Noah, and decided to join him. Sierra walked a bit further until she realized she was alone.

"AHH!" she screamed, "OMG Chris this is so not cool." Voldemort Chef appears from another door in the hallway, and quickly bagged Sierra. The Foxes were still searching the dungeon, split up among the long corridors of cells. Bridgette walked down one with Heather, Courtney and Joe.

"You think your sooooo cool," said Heather to Joe. He rolled his eyes and continued to ignore her.

"Like for example, you waltz in all 'I'm not even going to pretend I'm a good guy' and expect to make it far. As if, you are so dead," continued Heather.

"Yeah, like what kind of strategy is that?" followed up Courtney.

Bridgette (CONF): Man I picked the wrong group to walk with

They continued down the corridor, when they saw the crest in one of the cells.

"Oh yeah! Fiery Phoenixes rule!" cried Bridgette. But before they got too happy, Voldemort Chef appeared from one of the other cages.

"Great," said Joe, "as if being stuck in this stuffy hallway with Asia McBossy wasn't enough." Voldemort Chef slowly approached the group of four, when the crest suddenly dissappeared. Izzy appeared holding the crest over her head, and began running down the corridor.

"Oh yeah! Izzy wins!" yelled Izzy in glee.

"Izzy that is the wrong team's crest," said Eva.

"Um, excuse me, last time I checked I was the leader of Team E-Scope, not you," replied Izzy. Eva grabbed the crest from her and out of anger chucked it at Voldemort Chef. He ducked, causing the crest to fall into Bridgette's hands.

"Quick let's move!" said Courtney, and the four began sprinting through the corridor of dungeons.

"Thanks man-lady!" said Heather as she was running away. Eva went crazy and began bending the bars of one of the cages.

"Eva it's ok, everyone makes mistakes," said Izzy, placing her hand on Eva's shoulder. Eva's fiery eyes died down.

"Uh...thanks...I guess..." replied Eva.

"Team E-Scope?" asked Izzy, holding her hand in the air for a fist bump.

"Team E-Scope," replied Eva, responding with a fist bump.

Eva (CONF): Wow I actually...calmed down...I hope the guys at the gym don't rag on me for it. Who new nut ball wasn't crazy?

The contestants re-convened at the front of the castle, after Chris announced over the mega phone that the Fiery Phoenixes won. Standing there already were DJ, Leshawna, Lindsay, Sierra, Blaineley and Anne Maria.

"I still can't believe you only caught six people," said Chris angrily to Chef, "like really man?"

"Hey, why don't you go wander through a dark scary castle looking for a bunch of snot nosed teens, see how you like it," replied Chef angrily.

"Whatever," replied Chris, "So anyways, the Fiery Phoenixes win! Frozen Foxes, I will be seeing you at the Gilded Chris ceremony tonight where someone will be going home.

"Great job new girl," said Jo, "your splitting up was such a great idea."

"Hey, let's all just chill out," replied Geoff, stepping in front of Suki.

"Yeah besides, Eva was the one who gave the other team their crest," said Izzy, but she quickly realized her mistake.

"Oops," she followed up, "I probably shouldn't have said that."

Eva angrily glared at Izzy.

"Ooh, I love the smell of tension in the evening, well let's go to elimination!" said Chris. At the elimination ceremony, everyone on the stands was tense. Some votes were shown.

"Who gives up the crest?" said Mike, clicking Eva.

"You think you are so smart," said Noah, clicking Suki.

"I don't really want to have an alliance with you," said Cody, clicking Dakota.

"I can't believe you ditched me, and brought my BFFL with you," said Sierra, clicking Noah. Chef appeared carrying a tray of Gilded Chris awards, and Chris walked up to the podium.

"Tonight, there are seventeen of you, soon there will be only sixteen. Whoever leaves will not be coming back...ever, and lose out on the chance at one billion dollars, let's get to the votes. The first Gilded Chris award goes to Tyler."

"Boo-yah!" said Tyler, catching his award, "safe again!"

"Also safe are the show's two least favorite females, Blaineley and Jo!" said Chris. The two caught their awards with glares plastered on their faces.

"Cody, you are also safe for tonight, as are you Anne Maria, Izzy and Owen," said Chris. The four caught their awards with smiles.

"They also go to Beth, Sierra, Geoff, Mike, Sam and Brick," said Chris.

"Thank you sir!" said Brick, saluting before he was hit by the Gilded Chris award.

"Oh yeah!" cheered Beth and Sam in unison, they high-fived which earned Beth a glare from Dakota.

"Eva, Suki, Dakota, Noah, you four all received votes tonight and one of you will be eliminated from the game. That person will not be Noah," said Chris, tossing the award to Noah. Sierra glared at him in return.

"That will also not be Suki," said Chris, tossing another award to Suki.

"What?! Why me?" asked Dakota. Eva smirked at Dakota.

"The final award of the evening goes to

...Dakota. Eva, time to go," said Chris.

"WHAT? No way!" yelled Eva in anger. "Crazy girl, I am coming after you," she said threateningly.

"Oh chef," sang Chris. Chef carried Eva down the walk of shame to the lam-o-sine.

"Another down, that makes six, but we still have a lot more to go, thirty-four to be precise. Stay tuned for another exciting episode of Total...Drama...Explosion!" said Chris.

Chapter 8: Remember That Big Plane?
"Last time on Total Drama...Explosion!" began Chris, "our favorite competitors competed in the Mary Potter challenge, with the Fiery Phoenixes coming out on top...again. That's right, the Frozen Foxes are seriously struggling this season. Eva...Eva, Eva, Eva, she managed to get herself voted out pretty early again, due to her temper and costing her team the challenge. Finally one of our villains takes the plunge. This time, we are introducing the third leg of the competition, the world leg. Will Owen's aerophobia return? Will Suki ever be listened to? Will Katie survive any further without Sadie? Find out, right here, right now, on Total... Drama...Explosion!"

Theme Song Plays

"We have to go on that giant floating piece of death...again? I was hoping Sierra's bomb cake permanently destroyed this scrap pile," said Courtney, standing at the airport with the other remaining contestants. Sierra looked at Chris worriedly, hoping he didn't still hold a grudge against her for destroying the plane. He tends to mess with the game a bit in favor of those he likes and against those he doesn't.

"Don't complain, Lightning don't do complaining, besides, why don't you try running an obstacle course filled with killer mutant animals while wearing grandma glasses," replied Lightning.

"Oh that is nothing!" replied Gwen, "try doing the truth or dare wheel of death, and you will see how lucky you were to have just run an obstacle course. I will never forget that septic tank..."

"Or jumping of a 1000 foot cliff," chimed in Bridgette.

"Or being forced to break into song at various places around the world," added Noah. This quieted Lightning up, causing him to step back into the group.

Lightning (CONF): They think they better than Lightning, I'll be laughing when I kick their sorry butts off the plane, sha-toodles!

"Alright, so as you guys can tell, our third leg is going to represent the world-wide portion of the Total Drama series, so I hope you guys have fond memories of this plane. It's also funny that you mentioned song Noah, because the third season wouldn't be complete without...

Gwen (CONF): Oh no, just...no

Duncan (CONF): Please don't say it, please don't say it

Heather (CONF): This cannot be happening

Alejandro (CONF): Again, Seriously? Aye Caramba

Courtney (CONF): Woo!!

...some music! This season however, you will be singing popular songs that everyone knows, that way everyone can download them on utunes," said Chris. The contestants all began to groan. "Anyways, lets get this show on the road," said Chris.

"Oh my gosh, I get to ride in the jumbo jet with my BFF Lindsay, eeh!" squealed Beth. She and Lindsay begain jumping up and down and squealing. Beth was excited, because she didn't qualify for the third season. Katie frowned.

Katie (CONF): I am like, so happy Lindsay and Beth are best friends...but it really rubs in that like, Sadie isn't here anymore

"Wait...if there has been an Island, an Action, and a World portion, does that mean there will also be a radioactive portion?" asked Zoey worriedly.

"Sadly, we can't do that again after my run in with the coppers last season, so no," replied Chris. The contestants cheered, but their cheer was muffled by the sound of the jumbo jet starting up.

"Well looks like it is time to go! We are going to stay pretty nearby for our first destination. I hope you all like it. Phoenixes you get first class first for winning the last challenge, have fun in economy Foxes!" The contestants all boarded the plane, worried about their first world challenge.

"Ok that's it, way too many people, I am going to Chris's quarters, I am a host after all," said Blaineley. She began to barge through the door before she was stoped by two interns with Chef standing behind them.

"Sorry sister, you get equal treatment, have fun with all the rats in economy," said Chef. He and the two interns left giggling, and Blaineley was fuming with anger.

"Hey girl, you need to learn that you are no better than the rest of us," said Anne Maria. Blaineley turned and started charging towards her before she was held back by Brick.

"I am in agreement with Anne Maria m'am," said Brick, "We can't have people thinking they are any better than anyone else. We are a team, we are in this together." His statement ended with a brief glare at Jo.

Jo (CONF): What was that for? I dont't think I am better than everyone else, I just am! They just need to accept that and move on

"Yeah, military guy is right, we need to like all be on the same level so we can finally win another challenge and party!" said Geoff. The others cheered, but Blaineley and Jo both did not look amused. In the meantime, Tyler and Sam were both chuckling, as they made a game out of throwing small wads of paper at Cody. In first class, things were going smoother. Dawn was sitting with Gwen, DJ and Bridgette in one set of chairs.

"I can't believe I am back at this place," said Gwen, "I loved always getting first class...oh." She then remembered that Bridgette and DJ both rarely got first class in the first season. She quickly apologized, but Bridgette and DJ still looked down.

"It's ok, it was my fault, if I hadn't gotten that animal curse our team wouldn't have been totally destroyed," said DJ.

"You never really had a curse," chimed in Dawn, "when I watched the third season, I could see your aura and it was your own mind that was making the curse come to life."

"Yeah, besides I probably would have fallen for Ale-jerk-dro anyways," continued Bridgette.

"No one is to blame," said Dawn, "I am still worried though." She got up and walked away, leaving Bridgette confused.

"Uh what was that about?" asked Bridgette.

"She thinks something bad is going to happen to one of up, and I am wigged out," replied DJ.

"Don't worry Deej, I am sure it is nothing too horrible," said Gwen.

Gwen (CONF): Sure I am worried too, but I can't have another superstition getting to DJ's head and causing us to begin losing challenges. Besides, last time I checked butterflies do not communicate with human beings

The first destionation of the world portion was none other than Arizona's grand canyon.

"So, I have good news and bad news, the good news is that we are right above the grand canyon! We are flying in circles right now to maintain above the canyon, which leads me to the bad news, there is no where for us to land. So you will have to each get in your team's raft for our white water rafting challenge! Your challenge is to white water raft all the way to the finish line, and make it there first ok? Fun! Here are your rafts," said Chris. He pointed over to where the drop zone was. Sitting there were two dingy beat up rafts that were big enough for about sixteen people. They were going to have to squeeze.

"What is with you and dropping people off things," asked Beth, "that is not very nice."

"Pssh Lightning can handle big drops," replied Lightning.

"Yeah, piece of cake," added Tyler. Lightning glared over at him, earning a confused look from Tyler.

Lightning (CONF): I cannot believe that Tyler considers himself an athlete, it's sha-barrasing

"Err...I dont do drops very well," said Sam. His face began to turn green.

"Just pretend you are making the jump in Tonic the Porcupine Three: Aerial Battles," replied Harold. The two smiled at eachother, before Joe interrupted the nerd moment.

"Don't help the other team," said Joe, "Idiot."

Harold hung his head and walked over to the raft. "Hey man, only I get to pick on that dweeb," said Duncan. Joe rolled his eyes and walked over to the raft.

Duncan (CONF): Ha, that guy is so gone

Once all the contestants had loaded onto the raft, the floor beneath them opened up. The contestants all yelled in terror as they dropped from the plane in the dingy rafts. Mysteriously, Harold managed to be knocked off of the Phoenix's raft. He began to scream loudly, which caused his team to notice.

"Guys we have to help him," cried Bridgette.

"Harold baby, reach for my hand," said Leshawna. She reached her hand out of the falling raft, but she was just out of reach. The ground below was approaching very quickly, and Harold was not in line to land in the river with the rafts. Thankfully, Zoey reacted to the situation quickly. Realizing she was taller than Leshawna and the closest to Harold, she reached out to grab his hand. At the last second, he was yanked back into the raft by Zoey. The rafts then landed in the water.

"Thanks sugar, I owe you one," said Leshawna to Zoey, "Anyone who helps out my homies is a friend of mine." Zoey blushed in response.

Zoey (CONF): Yes! More friends! But what if I do something wrong? What if I lose them? I hope Leshawna meant what she said

Harold had passed out, so the truth of what happened couldn't be revealed. The contestants were immediately thurst into the challenge. They shot down the river, and both teams were paddling hard.

Bridgette (CONF): Water sports? Right up my alley, this white water rafting challenge was totally cool

Katie (CONF): I wish Sadie was here to share this opportunity with me, DJ is soooo sweet though it kinda keeps me distracted

"Stroke, Stroke, Stroke," yelled Jo. She was sitting at the head of the Foxes raft with a megaphone.

"Um, I think it would be better if we took longer, harder strokes," said Suki.

"No, faster is better, full speed ahead soldiers," replied Jo. Suki sank back into her seat on the raft.

"Jo, you have to listen to everyone's ideas, sometimes it is the unexpected ideas that save a squadron's life," said Brick. Jo did not take the feedback well, sticking her tongue out at Brick and returning to shouting at everyone to stroke. The Phoenixes had a tense raft.

"Harold is absolutely no use to the team, I mean look at him, he is passed out," said Joe angrily.

"You know, I don"t think anyone would notice if we were missing Joe, I vote we throw him off the raft, all in favor?" asked Heather. Most of the contestants raised their hands.

"Come on guys, we can't be dumb about this, as much as I want this jerk off we don't want any sort of challenge penalty," said Trent.

"Yeah, my calculations say the extra strength Joe gives us would benefit more than throwing him off," added Cameron. Joe stuck his tongue out at Heather, and she returned the notion with a snarl.

Heather (CONF): Did I give that string bean permission to talk? No, no I didn't. Cameron is last season's winner, that could pose a big threat to me...it's time to strategize

The teams were neck and neck, rafting down the river with the walls of the Grand Canyon looming over them. A montage of the contestants rowing and a few of them sweating was shown. Jo continued to shout orders, as did Courtney for the Phoenixes. The result was that each team reached the finish line at the exact same time.

"Well...this is awkward...," said Chris, "I guess we will have to go to our tiebreaker." He brought all the contestants up to the top of the grand canyon. It had changed though, it now had a tight rope stretching across the width of the canyon.

"Oh no," said Cody, "This isn't good."

"I agree," said Beth. She leaned in closer to Cody causing him to lean away.

"Wha-" began Noah and Sierra, but were interrupted by eachother's voices.

"Anyways, I will need every member of both teams to cross this tight rope, whoever has the most succesful walkers wins," said Chris. He yelled go and the contestants started across the rope. Cameron was right behind Heather, and was the last contestant to get on the tight rope due to his anxiety problems. Right as he stepped on, the musical chime rang. The contestants all groaned again.

"Dang it, I though he forgot," said Leshawna.

"Ooh danger, E-scope likes," said Izzy.

"Alright, your song for today will be Edge of Glory, by Lady Gaga, so have fun, and go!" said Chris.

Song 

Once the contestants were done singing, a majority of them had already finished. Very few had fallen off. Tyler was the first to fall off, taking Jo down with him. Jo was not happy about that.

Jo (CONF): Headband thinks that he is an athlete, then goes and throws me off a cliff! Not cool

Gwen and Courtney got into another brief fight, causing both to be sent off the side of the tight rope. Bridgette tried to save both of them, but couldn't, and almost ended up falling herself. Thankfully, Alejandro was there to catch her.

"Uh...thanks I guess," said Bridgette.

"No problem, I would never let such a gorgous surfer take such a big fall," replied Alejandro. Geoff, who was on the tight rope as well, saw the interaction.

"Stupid Alejandro and his stupid perfect hair and his stupid spanish and..." rambled Geoff to himself. Bridgette shot him a wink, but Geoff ignored it.

Geoff (CONF): I hope Bridge is still as in to me as she used to be, I mean, we don't even make out anymore, ok well sometimes but not always like we used to. It sucks man

Heather put her plan into action when she noticed Cameron having slight issues crossing the tight rope. As he was stumbling, she "helped" him up, but actually knocked him over the side. He screamed as he took the plunge. Everyone else had finished, and since the Foxes had more finished they finally won the challenge.

"Way to go scrawny," yelled Heather over the side of the cliff.

"Yeah, way to cost us the challenge," added Courtney.

At dinner, the Foxes finally had a chance to kick back and relax, but Jo took this as an opportunity to officially become captain of the Foxes.

"...and I'm smart, and goodlooking, and that is why you should vote me for captain of the Foxes," said Jo. Once she finished her speech, she bowed and sat back down.

"I am pretty sure we don't have captains Jo," said Sierra angrily, "besides, even if we did the choice would be obvious, Cody." Cody blushed, but quickly stopped when he realized that Noah, Beth and Sierra were all staring at him.

"Uh...no thank you," said Cody.

"Yeah, scrawny couldn't lead a group of kindergarteners to the playground, let alone a whole team," said Jo.

Cody (CONF): I am pretty sure I got third place and she got fifth...just saying

In the meantime, the Phoenixes were arguing over who should be eliminated. The main names thrown out there were Cameron and Joe. Things seemed to be leaning towards Joe though.

"Hey, at least I helped out in the challenge, Nerdling #1 was passed out the whole time from his accident, and Nerdling #2 cost us part two," said Joe.

"Hey, I got pushed," said Cameron, "Heather."

"I have no idea what you are talking about," replied Heather.

"I still think it should be Joe, I mean if you look up evil in the dictionary there is probably a picture of his face there," said Leshawna. Joe glared at her but she didn't care. Suddenly, the scene cut to the first barfbag ceremony of the season.

"I have seventeen barfbags on this plate, and there are eighteen of you," began Chris, "Let's get the ball rolling, the first barfbag of the season goes to...Bridgette." Bridgette walked up and proudly claimed her barfbag. She remained standing at the front as Chris continued to call names.

"Leshawna, Trent, Lightning, you three are also safe," said Chris. The three also walked up to claim their barfbags. Bridgette high-fived Trent and Leshawna, and they joined her standing. Lightning went for a high-five, but Bridgette didn't noticed so Lightning got angry and went to stand by himself.

Lightning (CONF): I have had enough of these "veterans" thinking they are better than Lightning, Lightning will strike them so hard they won't even know what him them

"Also safe, Zoey, Courtney, Duncan and Gwen," continued Chris.

"Oh yeah!" replied Duncan. He got up to claim his barf bag. Zoey cheered as well, and put one arm around Courtney and one around Gwen.

"I am so glad we are all friends," said Zoey. This prompted Courtney and Gwen to glare at eachother, and for Zoey to back away nervously.

"The next bags go to Heather, Alejandro, Katie, DJ and Lindsay," said Chris. Lindsay squealed, and Dj and Katie hugged. Alejandro and Heather hugged as well, but quickly realized what they were doing and stopped.

"The last two vote-less wonders are Dawn and Scott, bags for both of you," said Chris. Both walked up and joined the rest of the contestants smiling.

"Joe, Harold, Cameron, one of you is going home tonight, but that one of you is not Joe," said Chris. He tossed him his barfbag, and Joe caught it with a smirk.

"What? No way!" said Duncan angrily.

Leshawna (CONF): *laughing* I knew Duncan would come through for Harold one day, it's kind of funny to watch him finally realize it though

Duncan (CONF): No, I wasn't upset because dweebling Harold was in the bottom two, it was because Joe wasn't, that guy irks me

"The final barfbag of the night is going to...

...........Harold," said Chris. Chris tossed a barf bag at the still knocked out Harold.

"What? Why me?" asked Cameron.

"Yeah, why Cameron?" asked Zoey. She looked at her friend sadly.

"You cost us the challenge, toodles," said Heather waving.

"Sha-bye bye," added in Lightning.

"Well bye guys, it was a fun sea-" began Cameron, before Chris pushed him off the plane.

"Man I missed doing that," said Chris, "with one of our four winners gone, are the other ones safe? And what actually happened to Harold? Find out next time on Total Drama Explosion!"

Chapter 9: Vegas Baby
"Last time on Total Drama Explosion," began Chris, "Our remaining competitors battled hard during their first world leg of this competition. We visited the sunny Grand Canyon, and the contestants had a ton of fun rafting, crossing a tightrope, and yes, singing. The musicals are back! Isn't that exciting? Anyways, things are pretty tense right now with the Phoenixes. The villains seem to be causing a ton of problems for them, with Heather throwing the challenge to boot last season's winner. Bye-bye Cameron! This time, we will be flying to Viva Las Vegas, to see how the competitors manage the world portion of this game, and eachother. Who tried to end Harold? What is Suki's secret? Will Dawn continue to talk to butterflies? Find out, this time, on Total Drama Explosion!"

Theme Song

The episode opened up with the Fiery Phoenixes sitting in Economy class. The loss did not go over well with many of the contestants on the team.

"I'm telling you, I was pushed!" said Harold.

"Harold, we all know your clumsy, but do you really need to make up a story for it?" asked Gwen.

"Yeah man, I mean that's not cool," added Trent. Gwen blushed at Trent, causing both Courtney and Duncan to shoot her dirty looks.

Duncan (CONF): If Gwen picks that pop sensation wannabe over me...

Gwen (CONF): Great, just what I need, Trent causing both Duncan and Courtney to be upset with me, perfect

"Well I believe Harold," said Leshawna, "I mean, how do you just fall out of a raft? It's not natural."

"Leshawna is right," said Dawn. The other Phoenixes looked at her as if she was going to continue talking, but she went to meditating. In the meantime, Katie and DJ weren't paying attention to everyone else. They were sitting in the corner laughing.

"No way, like you really did that?" asked Katie.

"Yeah, momma thought it would be a good idea, but man was she wrong on this one," said DJ. The two began chuckling.

"Excuse me, does this look like happy fun time? Need I remind you that we lost?" said Courtney. The three began fighting aimlessly before it was interrupted by Bridgette.

"Guys, if we want to get back to our winning streak, we need to stick together," said Bridgette. Silence followed, but fighting broke out again shortly. Bridgette sighed and the scene transitioned to Geoff sighing in first class.

"Seriously guys, this is so not a party, we can't have all this fighting," said Geoff.

"Yeah hear that sister? Shut up," said Blaineley. Anne Maria snarled and took a dive at her. The two began fighting before Sierra broke it up.

"Ugh, I am definitely like, uber gen one contestants," said Sierra. Her team turned to look at her with confused looks on their faces.

"I mean I like the first generation cast...duh," said Sierra.

"Hey that's not ver-" began Mike, before gasping. Mike's body began contorting, as his left eye began to shut and his spine began to bend. His face scrunched up and a groan similar to that of an old man's came out. Chester had returned.

"You young whipper-snappers really need to calm down," said Mike (Chester). Chester began aimlessly babbling about how they didn't have fancy airplanes in his day, and how they should go back to the horse and buggy system. In the meantime, Cody was trying his best not to feel uncomfortable. Beth, Sierra and Noah were all staring at him, and Cody was trying to pretend he didn't notice.

"Hey there big boy," said Beth, scooting towards her. She pulled out her chicken perfume and spritzed it on. Cody laughed nervously and scooted away from her.

Cody (CONF): Sure I like Beth, but not like that.

Thankfully, by the time Chris arrived at economy class Mike had reverted to his old self.

Mike (CONF): Why? Why? First Zoey and I get separated, and second my personalities begin to take control again. Maybe it has something to do with Zoey...

"Hello players, please meet me in the mess hall in five," said Chris. The contestants all followed him into the mess hall where the Phoenixes were already sitting.

"What messed up place are we going next?" asked Duncan.

"Oh you are all going to like this one, we are going to Vegas, baby!" said Chris, throwing his arms in the air. His announcement was met by silence.

"You do realize that we are only nineteen right? We can't get into any casinos," said Jo.

"Ha. Sucks to be you guys because I am old enough," said Blaineley.

"Oh yeah I forgot you were a grandma, my bad," replied Jo sarcastically.

"You won't be so hot from the outside of the casino," said Blaineley. She stuck her tongue out at Jo.

"Shush you two, who said anything about going in the casinos? You guys will get to experience the chilly winter nights here in Las Vegas as you complete today's challenge," said Chris, "Vegas attracts some pretty weird people, your challenge today will be to find those weird people and snap a photo with them. Here is a list." Chris handed Bridgette the Phoenix's list and Sierra the Fox's.

"But we are going to start with a song!" said Chris, "Once we land, I want you to give the streets of Las Vegas a performance, something poppy, something techno-y, something hip." The contestants meet this announcement in the usual way, with a groan.

"I think I know just the song," said Zoey, "it's not too mainstream but also not too in the dark."

The plane lands, and the contestants break into the song Titanium.

Song 

The song is met with roaring applause from the thousands of people wandering the streets of Vegas looking for night life.

"They love me, they love me!" said Courtney, bowing.

"Eeh!" squealed Dakota, "This is amazing, talk about fame booster. Oh yeah!" She pushed Courtney out of the way and began posing. Gwen went to help Courtney up, but ended up earning herself a scowl as Courtney used Bridgette's hoodie to pull herself off the ground.

"What was that about?" said Bridgette, turning around.

"Sorry, I didn't want goth-itis," said Courtney. Her and Gwen broke into another one of their many fights, causing Bridgette to sigh walk away.

Gwen (CONF): I just want to make up with her!

Courtney (CONF): I just want her gone!

"Alright, and go," yelled Chris through a megaphone from aboard the plane. The contestants all sprinted off the stage and both teams ran off into the crowds on the streets of Vegas. The screen flashed white and changed to the Phoenixes wandering down the Las Vegas Strip, the main street of Las Vegas.

"This is what I'm talking about," said Duncan, looking around at all the casinos and women.

"Well, it fits a pig like you," said Courtney as she picked up a banana peel off the ground and threw it into a nearby trash can.

"So what's first Bridge?" asked Zoey.

"It says someone with a big mo-hawk, p.s. Duncan does not count," said Bridgette.

"Crap," said Duncan, snapping his fingers.

"Alright, we are in Las Vegas, how hard could it be to find another punk wannabe," said Scott.

"Hey," said Gwen, Duncan and Courtney at the same time. Courtney quickly looked embarrassed, and walked away.

Duncan (CONF): So princess still isn't resisting the D-Man...interesting

"Come on guys, we are not losing this, we will fight and we will come out on top," said Alejandro.

"Save it Ale," said Lightning, "we all know your tricks."

"Yeah, we watched Total Drama World Tour," said Joe.

Alejandro (CONF): That is such an unfair advantage! How am I supposed to manipulate people when they know that I'm doing it? Now I can't gain anyone's trust...well not necessarily

"So Katie, your still upset about Sadie's elimination aren't you?" asked Alejandro. Katie nodded sadly.

"Well, how about I help you avenge her and we form an alliance," said Alejandro.

"But like...didn't you manipulate all those people two seasons ago?" asked Katie.

"Trust me, I want you to succeeed," said Alejandro, pulling Katie into his arms. She turned red and began giggling.

"Ok," said Katie, swooning. DJ watched the whole thing go down, warily.

"She doesn't actually like him" said Dawn, appearing beside DJ, "she is just playing along, I can tell by her aura." The two looked over and Katie kissed Alejandro.

"I don't want to hear it," said DJ. He out-of-character walked away as Katie stood giggling in Alejandro's arms.

"But..." began Dawn, before she realized DJ was too far away to listen. She hung her head sadly and continued walking with the team. Heather was taking the situation much differently.

Heather (CONF): Excuse me? Did Alejandro just kiss Katie? Oh she is so done, and so is he. Not because that happened, because they are a threat now...seriously...*screams angrily and kicks the confession cam*

"Look over there," said Harold, pointing off to someone walking by with a mo-hawk. Zoey ran over and snapped a photo of the punk before he could notice, then turned around and ran back.

"Got it," she said, as she arrived back to the group.

"Nice job Zoey!" said Bridgette, high-fiving her. That earned a point for the Phoenixes, however the Foxes seemed to be doing this challenge a lot better.

"Alright so we have the mo-hawk, the couple kissing, the person dressed as a cowboy, and the person wearing a Total Drama shirt," said Beth, "we are so getting first place!" The other Foxes cheered.

"It's thanks to my overwhelming fame, people were rushing just to come see me, I'm sure that made it easy to find all the people," said Blaineley.

"Sure blondie, whatever you say," replied Anne Maria.

"So we have two left," said Beth, "we need someone with bright neon colored pants." She had taken the list for her team and the reigns for this challenge.

Jo (CONF): Sure I don't like it when others lead, but nerd-ette is the only member of our team that has ever reached the final two. That's got to count for something. Besides, if she fails, bye-bye nerd

"There," said Suki, pointing at someone with neon-colored glasses. She grabbed the camera from Beth's hands and ran over to the guy with the pants. The contestants watched as she took a picture of him. Then, the guy's friend took a picture of him and Suki, confusing all the Foxes.

"What was that about?" asked Sierra, when they were walking to find their final person.

"Oh it's nothing," said Suki.

Suki (CONF): Alright, I might as well tell the viewing audience, I have a secret...I am sort of an internet celebrity. Only sort of though! I only have like ten million subscribers on my YouBox channel, if anyone else found out though I would be kicked off for sure, besides, I don't have the confidence to be dealing with people in real life. It's much easier responding to comments on a screen

Back at the Phoenixes, they hadn't done much better.

"Come on, there has got to be someone dressed as a cowboy," said Bridgette, looking at the list. Right when they spotted someone dressed as a cowboy, Bridgette's cell phone rang. She answered, and it turned out to be none other than Chris.

"Alright, come back to the plane losers, the Foxes are already done," said Chris. Bridgette hung her head and told the rest of her team. They all headed back to the plane to find the Foxes there cheering.

"Foxes rule, baby" said Anne Maria, throwing her hands in the air.

"Oh yeah," said Cody, high-fiving Owen.

"We rock!" he said in reply. Owen gave Dakota and Sam a crushing hug, and Sam gigged with delight.

"I can't believe we lost...again," said Courtney.

"Ha. Sucks to be you guys," said Chris. The scene flashed to the mess hall, where the contestants were eating dinner. The Phoenixes were really tense.

"Easy, I think Ale-jerk-dro needs to go," said DJ.

"I second that," said Heather, immediately after DJ said it.

"No!" blurted out Katie, getting up out of her seat. She quickly blushed and sat back down, and Alejandro shot her a dirty look.

"Why Katie? Is there something your not telling us?" asked DJ angrily, "Don't pretend you don't know. I thought we were tight." Katie looked away in shame.

"Don't blame the lady DJ, you must act with honor," said Alejandro.

"Oh don't even talk to us about honor buddy, you left me stuck to a pole, in the arctic," said Bridgette.

"Yeah, and you are like...really mean," said Lindsay.

Joe (CONF): This is PERFECT! But it is not Alejandro's time, time to put my plan into action

Alejandro (CONF): Crap

"It's time," said Joe, to a group in the dark.

"Ok," replied a number of unidentifiable voices. The scene then flashed to the elimination ceremony.

"Alright, you know the drill. There are sixteen barf bags on this plate, and seventeen of you. One of you will be going home today, and you will never return...ever," said Chris.

"The first marshmallow goes to...Bridgette," said Chris. She caught her barf bag and sighed with relief.

"Also safe tonight, Courtney, Heather, Gwen, our Amazonians," said Chris.

"Ugh, she is safe...again," said Courtney, referring to Gwen. Gwen sighed, but not with relief.

"DJ, Katie, the lovebirds may celebrate the joy that is safety," said Chris, tossing DJ and Katie their barf bags. That made the room even more awkward than it was before. Both caught their barf bags in silence, and DJ looked at Katie sadly. She rpelied with another look of shame, but quickly turned away.

"Well...that was awkward...so anyways, Joe, Scott, Lindsay and Lightning, you four are safe as well," said Chris.

"Sha-booyah!" cheered Lightning as he caught his barf bag. Lindsay squealed and Scott and Joe both had a look that said that they knew they were going to be safe.

"Dawn, Zoey, Duncan, Trent and Leshawna, you five are also safe," said Chris.

"Yeah baby," said Duncan, as he caught his barf bag. Dawn and Zoey hugged, and Trent shot a look at Gwen, but she looked away.

"Alejandro, Harold...one of you is going home tonight, the last barf bag goes to....

........................................................................Alejandro," said Chris.

A look of confusion swept across the contestants holding their barf bags.

"What?" asked Harold, "but how?" Even Alejandro looked confused. He didn't even catch his barf bag he was so shocked.

Alejandro (CONF): Uh...all part of the plan?

"But....." said Harold.

"How did this happen?" asked Leshawna.

"Yeah, honestly though," followed up Duncan.

"I don't get it," said Bridgette.

"The aura of this situation is all wrong," said Dawn, glaring at Joe.

"Well I guess it was a good run, there is one last thing I need to say, last challenge, I know who pushed me off the raft, it was-" began Harold, before Chris shoved him out the plane.

"Well looks like there is another one gone, good night everybody," said Chris.

-This clip is shown exclusively to the viewers-

Joe (CONF): Ha. Good thing I came prepared with these extra passports, *holds up seven Harold passports* Lightning the halls are clear right? Good. Scott, I want you making sure no one enters through that way got it? *stamps multiple Harold passports and puts them down* I can't have anyone know it was me who tried to push you off, plus you are a threat, plus...I just don't like you, that's right, karma, have fun taking the drop of shame. I know I could have used up these extra passports on anyone, but it was worth it, and now you are gone. The first of many.

Chapter 10: Baby It's Cold Outside
"Last time on Total Drama Explosion, our competitors got to have fun in Las Vegas, and finally got to have a crowd for their musical performance. Our players navigated through the crowded streets of Las Vegas to try and photograph all the weirdos that were on their list. Ultimately, the Phoenixes began to butt heads even more than the Foxes, costing them the challenge. In a shocking twist, Joe showed a personal vendetta against Harold, sending him home by rigging the voting system. We probably shouldn't have let that happen but hey, I'm sure ratings are up. That won't happen again though or someone is going to get it. This time, our players are being taken to the frozen plains of Vancouver, for a snow-filled challenge. It's time to finish our first full cycle, who will win? Who will lose? Find out right now, right here, on Total...Drama...Explosion!" said Chris.

Theme Song

The episode began with the Phoenixes sitting back in economy class. Things were not looking any better than they were at elimination.

"I can't believe y'all voted off Harold," said Leshawna angrily.

"Calm down Leshawna, we didn't, we have to be smart about this," said Courtney, "besides, it's not like Harold was that useful anyways." Leshawna stood up, rolled up her sleeves and began walking towards Courtney before Bridgette and DJ held her back.

"Alright let's do it this way, if you voted Alejandro, raise your hand," said Gwen. Zoey, Bridgette, DJ, Dawn, Gwen, Courtney, Leshawna, Trent, Lindsay and Duncan all raised their hands. Gwen began counting all the hands.

"Alright, with Harold that makes eleven out of the seventeen votes directed at Alejandro, no offense," said Gwen. She glanced apologetically at Alejandro.

"Heather, you didn't vote for me?" said Alejandro, ignoring Gwen's notion.

"Uh...pssh yeah I did," said Heather, slowly and awkwardly raising her hand.

"But you didn't raise your hand," said Alejandro, in his seductive voice. Heather turned bright red, and stuck her tongue out at Alejandro.

"Hey!" said Katie, but Alejandro ignored her. He leaned in and kissed Heather. Katie started crying and ran out of economy class. DJ looked reluctant at first, but eventually decided to run after her.

"I have a sneaking suspicion what happened..." said Dawn, glaring at Scott, "I thought you had changed." Scott looked ashamed for a brief moment, before he became defensive.

"I didn't do anything nature freak," said Scott, "I don't know what you're talking about."

"Well maybe Joe could tell us," said Dawn. Everyone's attention turned to Joe, who was sitting in the corner.

"You know what I find funny? How you guys continously threaten to vote me off, and yet after four eliminations I am still here," said Joe, "You are running out of time, tick...tock...tick..."

"That's only because you are almost slightly useful to the team, just you wait the first chance we get when we don't need you," said Courtney. Joe's face slowly turned red with anger, and the scene flashed to first class where the Frozen Foxes were staying. Blaineley was sitting in one of the chair sets, with Anne Maria, Jo, and Sierra.

"Alright sisters, I need to get far in this game, being the mega popular contestant I am I wouldn't want to displease any fans," said Blaineley.

"I haven't seen any Blaineley fansites," said Sierra quietly to herself.

"I am jst going to ignore that, and move on," said Blaineley angrily, "So we are the four strongest females on this team, so I am giving you three the lucky chance of allying with me, Blaineley O'Halloran."

"Don't you mean Mildred blondie," said Anne Maria. She began chuckling, but stopped when she realized how red Blaineley was turning out of anger.

"Ally, us four? I don't know," said Jo.

Jo (CONF): I could use some allies, and some people to manipulate into feverishly obeying me...This could work

"Actually, I am in," said Jo.

"Good, what about you two other lovely ladies?" said Blaineley, but Sierra saw through her manipulation tactics.

"I don't know, I mean without Cody..." said Sierra.

"You are going to have to move past that sister, have you seen that boy's advances on Noah?" said Blaineley. The scene flashed back to the Foxes sitting in first class in the previous episode. Cody and Noah were both sitting at the mini-bar, and they both reached for the same drink. Their hands stayed their briefly until both pulled back embarrassed. The scene flashed back forward to the ladies in the chairs.

"That boy is playing for the other team," said Blaineley.

"That's not true," said Sierra, clearly in denial, "But in case it is, I guess I can join your little alliance."

"I am in too, you guys could use some hott-ness," said Anne Maria, "And we all know I gots the goods."

The four put their hands in the middle and broke. In the meantime, Dakota and Sam were sitting on the couch.

"So er...I never got to officially ask you out, you know...as Dakota, so-" began Sam, before he was interuppted.

"Of course Sam, besides the paparazzi, and the screentime, and the popularity, and the..." she rambled.

"Uh is this going somewhere?" asked Sam.

"You are almost the best thing that has ever happened to me on this show," said Dakota.

"I am cool with that," said Sam blushing. They were about to kiss, when Chris's voice boomed over the intercom.

"Meet me in the Economy Class in five," he said. Five minutes later, all the remaining contestants were standing in economy class. Suddenly, the plane started shaking violently.

"Oh no not again," said Leshawna, her voice shaking from the heavy turbulence.

"Sorry, snowy environments do that to the plane," said Chris. Suddenly, the plane landed, jerking all the contestants off their feet. The plane halted to a stop, a couple feet above the ground.

"Alright guys, remember the Yukon, one at a ti-" began DJ, before Lindsay bumped into him knocking him off the plane. One by one, the contestants hopped out the door into the snow, ending in a giant dog pile. The contestants slowly struggled to climb out of the big pile, with Chris watching amused. They gathered around Chris, who had put on winter gear.

"Alright, so or coats had to have arrived," said Courtney.

"It's been over a year," said Bridgette.

"Wait, we don't get coats?" said Anne Maria, "that's ridiculous!"

"Didn't you watch last season?" asked Beth.

"No, I didn't watch Total Drama Blama until the end of the third season," said Anne Maria.

"So where are we anyways?" asked Beth, this time directing her question at Chris. He finished sipping his hot coffee very slowly before answering her question.

"Good question Beth, we are in Vancouver," said Chris.

"We haven't even left the western hemisphere yet," said Noah, "maybe if a certain host still had a certain assistant we would be somewhere cooler..."

"Shut it, before I personally kick you out of the game," said Chris angry.

"Can we get on with it? I want to be able to use my mad skills," said Tyler.

"Agreed, this cold weather is making me ready to go, as long as we don't have to go anywhere...dark," said Brick with a gulp.

Tyler (CONF): It's crazy that I am still the least talked about contestant on the fan blogs. Still. I have less play then all the season four contestants, and they have only competed in one season so far!

"Anyways, back to the challenge..." said Heather.

"Right, the challenge, your challenge today will be a massive snowball fight! That's right, you guys remember dodgeball all those seasons back?" said Chris. The scene flashed back to the dodgeball game. It showed Owen going crazy and throwing a ton of dodge balls, and Courtney, Katie, Duncan, DJ, and Geoff using Duncan's strategy to take out the gophers. "We will be doing five on five snowball fighting!" said Chris.

"Oh yeah, I am so good at dogdgeball," said Tyler, cheering. This caused the veteran contestants to bust out laughing.

"Good is definitely not the word that I would have used there," said Heather.

"Hey, that was all bad luck," said Tyler.

"Whatever you say," said Heather. Chris then motioned for the contestants to follow him, and brought them to a giant battlefield. There were lines drawn out, forming what looked like a dodgeball arena in the snow. Each side had two piles of pre-made snowballs for the contestants to use.

"Alright here we are, I am going to skip the rules, because I am sure you all know them, and during the beginning of the challenge, guess what is going to happen?" asked Chris.

"Crap," said Duncan.

"Yes," said Courtney, at the same time as Duncan's "crap".

"That's right, it is song time, this time you will be doing a mash-up" said Chris. The musical chime rang overhead, and the contestants began their song, Hit Me With Your Best Shot/One Way or Another.

Song 

The song consisted of a montage, which showed three rounds. The Phoenixes sweeped the first round, but the Foxes retaliated and took the next two. In the fourth round, it was Bridgette, Lindsay, Dawn, Scott, and Trent against Tyler, Brick, Jo, Blaineley, and Cody. Tyler immediately scooped up three snowballs and chucked them at Dawn. As they were about to hit her, she side stepped and all whizzed past her.

"Good moves," said Scott, "but watch this." He picked up two snowballs and lobbed one up in the air. As Tyler ran to catch it, Scott pelted him in the stomach with the second snowball, eliminating him.

"That was a dirty trick, your aura says your intentions were good so...," said Dawn, and using Scott's strategy took out Cody.

"Ooh, Ooh I want to play," said Lindsay.

"Lindsay, you are playing," replied Trent.

"Yay!" cheered Lindsay. She ran, scooped up two snowballs, and weakly threw them at Jo. They both fell short, prompting Jo to laugh at the attempt. As Jo was laughing, Bridgette launched a snowball at her eliminating her from the challenge.

"Alright dude," cheered Bridgette. Her and Lindsay high-fived and the girls retreated to the back of the court.

"Guys, we are seriously sucking right now," said Blaineley. She looked over at Brick, who was awaiting orders.

"Let's go military man, time to kick some butt," said Blaineley.

"Affirmative," said Brick. He immediately scooped up two snowballs, and strategically threw them at Dawn and Scott, eliminating the two from the challenge.

Brick (CONF): I didn't want the other contestants to know that I have a powerful arm, all those years at military boot camp really toughened me up, it was all strategy, if the Phoenixes knew at the beginning they would have tried to take me out

"All right!" said Blaineley, "That is what I call team work."

"You did nothing," said Joe blatantly. This prompted Blaineley to throw a snowball at Joe, who was sitting on the bleachers.

"Hey, he is out, I would never throw it at someone who was on the bleachers," said Heather.

"What about th-?" began Lindsay, before Heather glared at her.

"That was an accident," said Heather, although she obviously didn't believe what she had said.

"Drama diva is out," said Chef, who was refereeing the match.

"What? How?" said Blaineley. Chef glared at her and pointed to the bench. Blaineley stuck out her tongue, but complied to Chef's call and stepped off to the sidelines. Chef glared at Blaineley, remembering the torture he had to endure in Africa due to Blaineley smooth talking him into an alliance. In the meantime, Brick scooped up another snowball and lobbed it at Lindsay, taking her out. This left Trent and Bridgette against Brick. All three contestants were on their toes, squatting, and bouncing back and forth, as if preparing for a volleyball game. Trent was the first to make a move. He grabbed a snowball and chucked it at Brick.

"Take that," he said, as the snowball left his hand and whizzed towards the military man. Bridgette took the oppourtunity to sneak to the side of the court, and throw another snowball from there. Brick easily dodged Trent's snowball, before getting pelted in the side by Bridgette's. Chef then blew his whistle, indicating he was out of the challenge.

"Round four goes to the Phoenixes," said Chef, as two of the rounds were shown in the montage, "This last round will determine the winner." Both teams huddled up and began deciding who to send out for the final round. The Phoenixes huddle was going fairly smoothly.

"If you don't remember, Harold won us this challenge last time, so good job booting him," said Courtney annoyed, "but I say we stick with some Bass members." The other contestants seemed hesitant at first, but eventually nodded in agreement.

"So let's do this, let's send out me, Duncan, Bridgette, Katie and DJ," said Courtney.

"But Lightning is an athlete, I should go too" replied Lightning angrily.

"Overruled," said Courtney. Alejandro, Lindsay, Dawn, Zoey, Joe, Scott, Trent, Heather, Gwen, Leshawna and Lightning stepped off to the bleachers, leaving the five Bass members to take the stage in the final round. The Foxes were also huddled deciding on who to send.

"Obviously we don't send book worm, or couch potato, or sweat band," said Jo, referring to Noah, Sam and Tyler, "but I surprisingly quiet girl throws pretty well, so I say we send her."

"Also Owen, he dominated one of the rounds last time, we just have to unleash him," said Cody.

"Alright good, of course I myself will go, but who else?" asked Jo to her team. The huddle looked around nervously at eachother.

"I'll go dudes," said Geoff. Jo glared at the party-er, annoyed how the contestants seemed to like him as a leader more than her.

"Alright, happy-go-lucky can go too, that leaves one, I vote either Cody or Sierra," said Jo.

"I will do it," said Cody and Sierra at the same time. Sierra snarled at Cody, which was returned with a confused look.

Sierra (CONF): I'm not going to pull a Courtney and try and throw the challenge, that got like, so badly reviewed on my fan sites, but if we lose today's challenge, this girl is making sure Noah goes home at the next elimination

"You got this guys," said Trent from the sideline.

"Yeah, do it," said Gwen. The two smiled at each other, which distracted Duncan. What Duncan didn't know, is that Chef had begun the round already, and Owen used the opportunity to take out Duncan. Duncan was on the ground rubbing his head, but still looking at Gwen. He went over to the bleachers and distanced himself from both Gwen and Trent.

"Oh yeah," said Owen.

"Come on let's show some effort," said Heather, clapping her hands. Katie and DJ teamed up and took out Owen. Their chemistry seemed better again, but still something was off between them.

Katie (CONF): Ok, so maybe I was like, really not smart for falling for Alejandro, but he is sooo cute, I just want DJ to forgive me though. I like, think it's really hard going without Sadie, but DJ almost makes me forget that...oops, sorry Sadie

"That's what I'm talking about," said Heather. Courtney threw a snowball at Sierra, but Sierra ducked under it. Sierra then fired a snowball straight at Courtney, but Bridgette dove right into Courtney pushing the two out of harm's way.

"Thanks Bridgette," said Courtney smiling, "that is how teammates and friends should treat eachother." She shot a glare a Gwen, per the usual.

"Look out," said DJ, throwing a snowball over the two fallen girls and hitting Jo, who was about to take the two out.

"I got this next one," said Courtney, line-driving a snowball straight at Geoff. It nailed him directly in the face, prompting Bridgette to run to the line separating the two sides.

"Geoff," she said, worrying for his well-being. While she was distracted, Suki threw a snowball at Bridgette's side, eliminating her from the challenge.

"Way to go surfer girl," said Heather sarcasitcally.

"It's ok Brianna," said Lindsay, who clearly still was having trouble with names, "I think it's cute." The two shared a smile, and Bridgette went to sit with Leshawna and Gwen on the bleachers.

"Alright Courtney, DJ, Katie it's up to you," said Bridgette.

"Right," said the three at the same time. Katie managed to throw out Sierra, before also getting thrown out by Suki.

"You can do it sister," said Blaineley, "Ra Ra!" Suki picked up another two balls and used Scott's strategy to take out DJ.

Scott (CONF): Hm that quiet girl seems to know her stuff, she picked up on my strategy pretty fast, if she makes merge she will have to go

Courtney and Suki had an epic showdown. It seemed to be going nowhere, before one of the girls made a mistake. Suki tried to use Scott's strategy on Courtney, who was waiting for that to happen and used the opportunity to sidestep and launch a snowball at her from the side. This caught Suki off guard, eliminating her from the challenge and giving the Phoenixes the win.

"And the Phoenixes win our Vancouver challenge," cheered Chris, throwing his arms in the air. The Phoenixes all got up and cheered. The scene then flashed to the mess hall in the jumbo jet, where the elimination was being discussed.

"Alright girls, move one, we take out Beth," said Blaineley. The other three girls looked at her confused.

"Why Beth?" asked Jo.

"Uh duh, she slipped all the way through to the final two last time," said Sierra, pretending to go along with the plan, but she had a different plan in mind.

"Alright, sounds good, she is a pimple on our beautiful team anyways," said Anne Maria. The four put their hands in the middle and broke. Sierra though had other plans. She went off and began trying to convince the contestants to vote off Noah. Cody overheard Sierra talking to Izzy about the elimination, and when he heard Noah's name, he quickly tried to retaliate by finding out who else was being targeted. Blaineley, in an effort to collect more votes against Beth, brought Cody in and told him who they were planning on eliminating for being a threat.

"Alright," said Cody, agreeing with the plan. He then went to Mike, Owen and Dakota, re-grouping the ex-alliance.

"Alright guys, Beth is seriously creeping me out," said Cody, making up an excuse.

"More than Sierra?" asked Mike.

"More, and besides, she made final two back in Action, if we let her get far, who knows what would happen," said Cody.

Owen (CONF): I'm a little worried because I won the first season, does that mean people will target me?

Things were undecided when Chris called the Foxes into the elimination room. A few of the votes were shown to the viewers.

Sierra (CONF): And this is for trying to make my Cody play for the other team *stamps Noah's passport*

Cody (CONF): Please go home, please go home, please go home *stamps Beth's passport*

Geoff (CONF): I guess the little guy really doesn't do much *stamps Noah's passport*

Anne Maria (CONF): Bye-bye pimple *stamps Beth's passport*

Chris then pulled out his tray of barfbags filled with airline-issue peanuts.

"As you know, I only have fifteen barfbags on this plate," said Chris, "so one of you will be taking the drop of shame, and never returning...ever. This time though, that person will not be, Sam." He tossed a barfbag to Sam.

"Sweet," said Sam, looking at Dakota happily.

"Oh yeah that's right, Dakota, you get one too," said Chris, tossing one to her.

"Oh yeah!" she cheered.

"Also safe, Geoff, Brick, Jo, Suki, and Anne Maria," said Chris.

"Alright!" said Geoff, throwing a fist in the air. The five caught their peanut bags happily.

"And Sierra, Cody, Blaineley, Owen and Izzy," said Chris. Izzy began chuckling happily and caught her barf bag. Sierra squeezed Cody tight, and Owen wrapped Izzy and Sierra into one big hug.

"Oh yeah, we get to be together for another three days!" said Owen.

"Whoop-di-doo," said Blaineley, but she was still smiling due to her immunity.

"Beth, Tyler, Noah, the three of you all got votes against today, the only one I can really guess is Tyler, I mean really dude? You weren't exactly the best, lucky for you that didn't seem to matter, because you are also safe," said Chris, throwing him a bag.

"Beth, Noah, one of you is going home tonight, the final barf bag of the evening goes to...

...............................Noah," said Chris. Beth looked down sadly.

"Why me?" the sad nerd-ette asked.

"Threat, sorry girl," said Blaineley.

"I-I am a threat? No way!" said Beth, her sadness turning into excitement.

Beth (CONF): Here that mom? I got eliminated because I was a threat, that's right, boo-yah! I would be sadder I guess, if I didn't have a big hunk of hottie to go home to, that's right Brady, I'm talking to you *winks at the camera and waves*

"I had a lot of fun, I am going to miss you all though, Tyler, tell Lindsay that I will miss-" began Beth, before she was also shoved out of the plane by Chris.

"Ahh that is always satisfying," said Chris, with an evil smirk, "that is all for this week, tune in next time to find out what will happen, on Total Drama Explosion!

Chapter 11: Lost in Wawanakwa
"Last time on Total Drama Explosion," said Chris, "our remaining thirty-two contestants battled it out with snowballs in Vancouver. The Phoenixes finally got their mojo back, and thanks to Courtney beat the Foxes in three out of the five rounds. Sadly, that meant bye-bye for one of our former runner-ups Beth, who was booted for being a threat. That leaves six out of our eight formal final two members still in the game. Are they safe? Is anyone safe? Were back at the island for thrills, drama, and excitement, right here, on Total, Drama, Explosion!"

Theme Song

"So why are we in the cargo hold?" asked Noah, clearly annoyed. All the remaining contestants were sitting on the floor of the cold, dark room.

"Good question, my butt is aching," said Anne Maria.

"Thanks for that," said Blaineley, with a straight face.

Blaineley (CONF): Ok so maybe I picked the wrong people to ally with, but I have to stick with it, I am so making it to the end of this loser fest

"This reminds me of the situation in that song, Trapped in Reality by the Metal Crushers," said Gwen, "They were so awesome".

"I love that band, I knew them back when they were underground," replied Zoey.

"No way," said Gwen, "that is actually pretty cool." Zoey was about to reply before she was interrupted by Tyler.

"I'm sorry guys," said Tyler loudly, and suddenly, "I didn't mean to do badly in the snowball fight."

"Aww it's ok Tyson, you didn't do that bad," said Lindsay. Tyler blushed and Lindsay kissed him on the cheek.

"Still with the enemy I see," said Heather.

"No it's not what it looks like," said Lindsay, trying to cover it up.

"By the way Linds, Beth said to tell you she says bye to you, and wishes you luck in the competition," said Tyler.

"Uh why?" asked Lindsay. She then realized Beth was no longer with the group, which caused her to scream.

"Didn't you notice her gone?" asked Courtney, "Idiot. Besides, you can't trust that little nerd-ette anyways."

"Hey, that's like, not nice," said Katie, trying to cover for Lindsay, "I know what it's like to have your best friend eliminated." Courtney seemed taken aback by Katie's sudden outburst. An awkward silence followed, as Chris walked in the room.

"So I am guessing we are heading back to Wawanakwa right?" asked Gwen.

"Very good Gwen, that is true, we have completed one full rotation, with three island, action, and world stages, congratulations on completing rotation two. After the next time, there will be a lot less contestants sitting with me in this room, nine less to be precise, one of which will be going home today."

"So why are we in here?" asked Trent.

"Good question Trent, you are in here because- NOW CHEF," yelled Chris. The floor opened up beneath all the contestants and they fell down into the ocean on the far side of Wawanakwa.

"Good luck getting back to camp," yelled Chris from the jumbo jet, that was flying away.

"I hate him so much," said Heather. The contestants were all treading water.

"Ok I am getting serious de ja vu," said Jo. She looked to her left and saw Lightning swimming past her.

"Sha-stroke, sha-stroke," he said, each time he took a stroke.

"Oh don't think you are a faster swimmer than me," said Jo, who quickly darted after him.

"Charge ahead soldiers," yelled out Brick, as he began swimming as well. The other contestants all followed behind, and eventually they all reached the shore.

"Seriously, if Chris makes us swim one more time," said Anne Maria, her voice escalating out of anger. The contestants were sitting there for a few minutes, before they realized nothing was happening.

"Where is Chris? Where are the mutant animals? Where are the sharks?" asked Gwen, smirking. The contestants all chuckled at Gwen's comment, but eventually those smiles turned into frowns, as they realized Chris wasn't coming for them.

"He seriously meant we were finding our way back to camp?" asked Joe.

"Haven't you watched this show?" asked Trent, already walking towards the woods. Joe looked ready to retaliate, but chose not to and followed behind.

"So what is our plan captain, I mean you are the one with the brains" said Scott, obviously sucking up to Joe. Lightning chuckled at Scott's attempt, but Scott ignored it and looked at Joe.

Joe (CONF): Just because Scott could persuage Zoey and other generation two contestants so easily, doesn't mean he can manipulate me, but I'll let him think he can

"I say we take out Dawn," said Joe. Scott froze, looking a little hurt. He quickly swalled the paralysis away, and sped up to catch up to Joe again.

"What? You falling for creepy girl?" asked Lightning, "This is a man's game, Lightning's got no time for romance."

"Who even said that I liked her? You're crazy grandpa," said Scott, mocking Lightning's white hair. Both teams seemed to be sticking together, but as they progressed further into the forest the Foxes seemed to be going at a quicker pace.

"Full speed ahead team," said Jo, leading the pack, "we ARE getting back to camp first." The Foxes followed close behind Jo.

Blaineley (CONF): Alright, psycho jock has to calm down, because if she gets booted that leaves me a man down, literally

"How are you doing dude?" asked Mike, putting his hand on Tyler's shoulder. Tyler seemed surprised by this notion, noting he hasn't spoken with many of the new contestants since the start of the final season.

"Er, good, thanks bro," said Tyler, rubbing the back of his head. The conversation took an awkward turn, since neither had anything else to say, and Mike slowly sped up to walk with Brick. Anne Maria was busy checking out Mike, which was noticed by Zoey, who was leading the Phoenix pack.

"No good, over-tanned, poofy haired..." mumbled Zoey.

"What's wrong?" asked Dawn, appearing next to Zoey.

"I know this is dumb, but it's Mike or I mean, Vito and Anne Maria, I know he can't help it, but I can't stop myself from-" began Zoey.

"I get it, but Mike is gaining control again, after what made him lose control again," said Dawn. The two locked eyes, seemingly having a silent conversation about what had apparently happened to Mike. This was all overheard by Scott.

Scott (CONF): Alright, do I tell Mr. Know-It-All about this new information about Mike? Or do I help Dawn? Not because I like her or anything, that's gross, but you know...for gameplay

"Alright, it's getting dark, I say we set up camp," said Bridgette.

"The other team is getting ahead though!." exclaimed Courtney.

" Bridgette is right, there is no point walking through the dark," said Trent, "besides, we could all use some rest, it has been a long day."

"Well what do we use as a tent?" asked Zoey. The contestants began to look around for shelter-like materials, as the scene panned to the Frozen Foxes. The Foxes had also decided to set up camp for the night, but they were doing much better than the Phoenixes.

"And that is hwo the army sets up a tent," said Brick. He had Dakota, Tyler, and Sierra helping him set up the tent. The three were looking over their work, when they were distracted by a bright light.

"Fire is ready," said Izzy. She cackled at her job well done.

"Nice work crazy girl, that was surprisingly useful of you," said Jo, who was currently collecting firewood.

Jo (CONF): Eva being gone makes it much easier for me around here, I don't need another person trying to shine in my spotlight, I am leading this team all the way

"This is awesome," said Anne Maria, who was lounging on a log, "This is a nice crib we got goin' on here."

"Yeah, I wonder how our food team is doing," said Jo. The scene flashed to Noah, Suki, and Blaineley. They were walking in the woods, scavenging for any food they could find. Eventually, they bumped into a wall.

"Wait...I know this wall...this is the wall Courtney found back in the special," said Suki.

"She had climbed over it to get that hot air balloon, that means civilization on the other side," said Noah.

"Civilization? Sounds good to me, let's go," said Blaineley. She lifted up Suki, who lifted up Noah, allowing him to get on top of the wall. He struggled, but managed to pull Suki up, and the two pulled Blaineley up together. While sitting on the top of the wall, they realized they were right next to a fast food place. They hopped over, and began walking towards the restaurant, when a slender, asian man got out of his car. He approached the group excitedly, and speaking poor English asked for an autograph. Blaineley, assuming it was her began to respond to the request, when he pushed his pen and paper to Suki. Blaineley had a look of confusion on her face, and the scene flashed to Duncan there with a confused face.

"Is that a couch?" asked Duncan, indicating the orange couch sitting there in the woods. In the surrounding area was bricks, chairs, and other various lobby-like items. A single sign stood, that said "Chris's Bed and Breakfast."

"Another one of Chris's crazy projects I see," said Heather. The two looked on the rubble and established they could use this to set up for the night. They called over their teammates. The contestants approached and began to make work of the area, turning into a fairly nice campgrounds. Bridgette began to work on the tent with Geoff and Courtney, while Leshawna and Heather worked on making a fire.

"Try not to burn down any tents this time surfer girl," said Heather. Bridgette shot her a look, but continued setting up the tent with Geoff and Courtney.

"Ignore her, she is a total pain," said Courtney.

"Thanks," said Bridgette, smiling in return. In the meantime, Katie was still trying to make amends with DJ.

"Thanks for like, comforting me the other day," said Katie.

"It's all good girl," said DJ. He put his arm around her, but the look on his face showed he hadn't fully forgiven her yet.

"Aww," said Lindsay, "That is so cute." She was watching the whole thing, as she picked up firewood for Heather and Leshawna.

The scene flashed to the Fox's food team, with Blaineley, Suki and Noah walking back to their campgrounds with their hands full of fast food.

"Hey Suki, why don't you speed up and get to camp quicker? That way they don't worry about us being lost," said Blaineley. Suki nodded her head and quickened her pace. Soon she was out of sight, and Blaineley took this as an opportunity.

"Look scrawny, something is up with that quiet girl, no one goes up and asks her for an autograph with yours truly standing right there," said Blaineley, "the season hasn't even aired yet."

"And you need my help why?" said Noah, in his usual condescending tone.

"I need you to help me figure out this girl's secret, you in or out nerd boy?" said Blaineley. Noah looked like he was about to refuse, before being intimidated by Blaineley.

"In," said Noah, losing his feeling of superiority. Blaineley smirked, and the two headed back to camp. Back at the campgrounds, the Foxes were surrounding the fire.

"No way," said Tyler.

"True story, I almost lost my arm that day," said Brick, revealing a scar on his arm.

"Ew, that is so gross," said Anne Maria.

"Like, totes gross," followed up Dakota. She made a gag noise, that caused the other contestants to laugh, even Jo. Suki was still holding her bags of fast food. The three handed out the fast food and the Foxes began chowing down.

"Fast food? Thank you," said Owen, his eyes twinkling. He quickly shoved the fast food into his mouth and made a farting noise that made the fire temporarily grow bigger. The Foxes all began saying ew as the scene flashed to the Phoenixes.

The Phoenixes were having a bit more trouble with food, but that didn't dampen their spirits. All of their spirits at least.

"Lightning need protein, this aint no protein," said Lightning.

"Oh hush up and eat," said Leshawna. She had gone out in the woods with Zoey to retrieve food, but all they could find were some berries.

"I like them," said Dawn, appearing between Lightning and Leshawna. Both their eyes widened, as Dawn conitnued nibbling her berries.

"Alright men and women of our mighty team, when the sun comes up tomorrow, I suggest we race to the finish, catch those rodents off guard," said Alejandro, using his "inspirational speaker" voice. The contestants began laughing.

"Look dude, we aren't going to fall for your 'we are one' act, I watched World Tour," said Zoey, giggling.

"No, I think that is actually a good idea," said Trent. The contestants looked at Trent shocked, paritcularly Gwen. Alejandro grinned, hoping that Trent sticking up for him raised people's trust in him. Joe sat in the back watching the whole discussion. He decided laying low in this challenge was his best bet. There was enough conflict already planted from the previous four seasons that if he stayed out of it he would make it far enough to truly make a move. He notioned that Scott come over and join him, but Scott, who was now sitting next to Dawn, pretended not to see him.

"Look creepy girl, I shouldn't be telling you this, and it is purely gameplay, but-" he began, before Joe came and dragged him away.

"What do you think you are doing?" said Joe.

"What do you mean?" said Scott, trying to sound innocent.

"What did I tell you about feelings? You cannot let them get in the way of the game," said Joe. Scott ignored him and walked back to the fire, which caused anger to visibly take over Joe.

Remember, stay low, thought Joe to himself. The scene flashed to the other Jo, who looked equally as angry.

"You ate the rest of our food?" said Jo, anger seething from her voice. The rest of the contestants were all shooting Owen except for a few.

"Look how big the guy is, what do you expect?" said Geoff.

"But I didn't eat the rest of the food I promise," said Owen. He then burped, which definitely didn't help his case.

"I believe Big O, I mean one time, I was being chased by the RCMP right? And I had to live off of berries for like, three straight days, and when I finally found food I chowed down, but the restaurant owner got mad at me because I 'couldn't pay', but I..." rambled Izzy.

"And how is that related?" asked Tyler.

"Well Owen didn't eat the food!" said Izzy. The rest of the contestants stood there looking confused, as Izzy's story made zero sense.

"You are dead fatso," said Anne Maria, glaring at Owen. The contestants all settled down to go to sleep, as did the Phoenixes. In the early morning, Duncan woke up and woke the rest of the Phoenixes up.

"It's time, let's do this y'all," said Leshawna. The contestants all began sprinting in the direction of the camp. They sprinted right through the Fox's campgrounds, waking up all the Foxes. In a startled state, the Foxes got up and began sprinting as well. It was an all-out foot race back to camp, with the Phoenixes pulling ahead and getting the win.

"And the Phoenixes win!" said Chris, raising his hands in the air.

"Foxes, see you at elimination," he followed up. The day continued as the Foxes all discussed who to eliminate. There was a montage of different alliances speaking (namely Dakota's and Blaineley's), as well as other contestants nodding their heads and speaking about elimination. Finally, night fell, and the elimination ceremony was held.

"Alright, as you all know, I have fourteen marshmallows left on this plate. There are fifteen of you, and one of you will be going home tonight. Our first safe is, Dakota," said Chris. He threw the marshmallow to Dakota, who caught it.

"Booyah!" cheered Sam, and Dakota blushed.

"Thanks for that Sam," said Chris sarcasitcally, "but sadly you are also safe."

'Double boo-yah!" cheered Sam again. He caught his marshmallow happily.

"Jo, Brick, you two faux love-bird enemy couple whatever you are, you are also safe," said Chris. Both looked ready to protest, but stopped when Chris continued.

"Blaineley, sadly you are also safe, as is Anne Maria," said Chris, tossing the two ladies their marshmallows.

"That is what I'm talkin' about, gimme that," said Anne Maria, arms stretched as she caught her marshmallow. Blaineley just sat with her legs crossed, smirking.

"Tyler, Cody, and Noah, you three are also safe," said Chris.

"Yes!" cheered Cody.

"Oh yeah!" followed up Tyler. Noah just smiled as the marshmallow landed in his lap.

"Sierra and Geoff, you two giraffes are safe as well," said Chris.

"Sweet," said Geoff calmly. Sierra grabbed her marshmallow and then rushed over to give Cody a crushing hug. Cody was suffocating, causing Noah to chuckle.

"Mike, you are the last of those who didn't receive votes, congratulations," said Chris, throwing Mike his marshmallow.

"Yes! I can see Zoey again," said Mike.

"Typical," said Anne Maria, blowing the hair out her face.

"Suki, Izzy, Owen, the three of you all received votes tonight. Lucky for Suki, she didn't receive enough to be in the bottom two, here is your marshmallow," said Chris, tossing Suki a marshmallow. She had transformed from visibly nervous to calm once Chris announced that.

"Owen, Izzy, one of you two is going home tonight. The final marshmallow is going to...

...................................................Izzy," said Chris.

"Not Owen," said Izzy, upset.

"Wha-, Why?" said Owen, clearly in shock.

"You ate all of our food bud," said Mike, "we didn't have much of a choice."

"Even you guys voted against me?" asked Owen, directing the question to Dakota, Mike and Cody.

"Sorry," said Dakota, only half interested.

"I didn't even eat the food," said Owen. Blaineley sat there smirking at Owen.

"It- It was you?" said Owen.

"Me? That's ridiculous," said Blaineley.

"You stole the food, it was you," accused Owen.

"He's crazy," defended Anne Maria.

"I-" began Owen, before Chris, Chef and three interns took him down the dock of shame.

"I didn't get to say my goodbyes! Goodbye Izzy, I'll miss you! And my little buddy Noah, and Mr. Coconut, wherever you are, and-" rambled Owen, as he was tossed into the Boat of Losers.

"I'll miss you big guy," said Noah, standing at the edge of the dock with Izzy and Geoff.

"Sorry dude, you definitely will be missed," said Geoff. Izzy just waved, as the boat took the first ever Total Drama winner off into the distance. It began to snow heavily, so the contestants were brought back to the cabins.

Blaineley (CONF): Yes! *punches fist in the air* My plan worked, I am so owning this game. Beth and Owen gone, easy as pie. Cameron is gone from the other team too. That just leaves Lightning, Duncan, Heather, Gwen and Alejandro. Anyone who made it to the final two is obviously who you go for first. Bye-bye suckers

Chapter 12: The Blizzard
"Last time on Total Drama Explosion, our remaining campers were dropped off in the middle of the forest with no supplies, their goal was to find their way back to camp. Lucky for the Foxes, they found our secret wall, someone is going to have to pay for that, but anywho that means they got food, also the Phoenixes found my construction site, so they hit the jackpot as well. In the end, Blainely framed our buddy Owen, causing him to get the boot. Now, with a quarter of our contestants gone, things are going to be stepped up, will our contestants make it? Find out right now on Total Drama...Explosion!" said Chris. He was standing outside of the cabins, bundled up in winter clothes, as a brutal wind whipped snow everywhere.

"I can't believe this is the last Total Drama season, in the back of my mind I always figured there would be more, ever since Total Drama Action," said Trent, "it's totally a bummer."

"A bummer? Ha. It's a bummer I'm cramped up in this cabin with you people," said Scott.

"Feel free to go outside the," said Lightning, opening the window. A squirrel completely encased in ice flew through the window. As it hit the ground, the ice broke, and the squirrel scampered back outside. Lightning tired to close it, but couldn't due to the intense winds, so the other male Phoenixes went to help him out.

"This is ridiculous," said Duncan, pulling down on the window with all his strength, "I already won a season." Finally, the boys managed to close the window.

"But didn't you end up using all your money on that Brittney case?" said Trent, snickering.

"Don't even," said Duncan. The scene flashed to the girl's side of the cabin, with Zoey holding up Leshawna's bra.

"Um, I am guessing this is yours," said Zoey, holding it by the tip and covering her nose with her other hand.

"Thanks homegirl," said Leshawna, grabbing it and stuffing it into her suitcase with her other clothes.

"Duh it's hers, Leshawna's the only one who could fit her junk into that giant bra," said Heather.

"Don't be jealous of my lucious lady lumps," said Leshawna. Courtney, Gwen and Bridgette all snickered as Heather turned red.

"Heather, I really think it's time you stop being mean to LeFawnduh, like, it's like, really mean," said Lindsay.

"Shut it, Lindsiot," said Heather. Lindsay looked discouraged, but Bridgette put a hand on her shoulder.

"Don't listen to her, she is just bitter that she lost her money from World Tour to Ezekiel," said Bridgette.

"Don't even bring that up," said Heather, immediately turning around after hearing Bridgette's consolence, "That money was mine, I won it, for once fair and square."

"She is genuinely upset, I can tell by her aura, let's just focus on getting along and not losing any more challenges," said Dawn. The girls came to a silent agreement, as the scene flashed to the girls in the Fox cabin.

"And three and four and..." said Jo, as she was doing jumping jacks.

"Why are you working out psycho?" asked Anne Maria.

"Well let's see, you got what place in the competition last time? Yeah, that's what I thought," said Jo. Dakota was sitting on her bed texting, and Sierra was typing a tweeter update on her laptop.

"Chris let you bring a laptop?" asked Dakota, surprised, "last season, he took everyone's electronics."

"Err well, he doesn't really know it's here," said Sierra. The scene flashed to Chris sitting in the warmth of his cabin. His phone buzzed, as he had wired all tweeter mentions of him to go directly to his phone.

Sierra (Tweeter Update): Chris Mclean doesn't even know my lap top is here. LOL. Wish me luck guys. #TeamCody

"Sierra..." said Chris, his face steaming red. Back at the girl's side of the Fox cabin, they are sitting there talking when Chef bursts through the window. He grabs Dakota's phone, and Sierra's laptop, and sprints back towards the window. Izzy tries to stop him with a karate chop, but Chef avoids the swing with a sommersault and dives back outside.

"Well, those didn't last very long," said Izzy. She began laughing hysterically, and the other contestants looked worried.

Sierra (CONF): I love Izzy and all, I mean if it wasn't for her allowing me to swap teams, I totally wouldn't be BFF's with Cody right now, but I'm scared

"So what is-" began Dakota, before abruptly stopping as the earth shook. Suddenly, the lights and heat went off in both cabins. A montage of the contestants looking around their cabins for the source of the problem was shown, but none of the contestants came up with anything.

"Lightning don't do cold, it makes my muscles stiff," said Lightning, frantically rubbing his muscles.

"Yeah this is not cool," said Trent, wrapping his arms around himself. Duncan pulled out his lighter and started a small fire in the middle of the room.

"Ooh nice job deliquent boy, now we can all catch on fire, smart one," said Joe, stepping on the fire. The fire was crushed under Joe's shoe.

"That's it," said Duncan, standing up. He dove at Joe, but DJ and Trent came and separated them.

"Y'all need to calm down," said DJ, "let's just go figure out what is up." The Phoenix boys walked out of their cabin and over to the girl's side. By the time they got over there, they were all shivering violently, with pale blue faces.

"What happened to y'all?" said Leshawna.

"Don't go outside," replied Trent.

"Chris won't actually leave us here to die will he?" said Bridgette.

"He came close with that radioactive mine," said Zoey.

"Good point," replied Bridgette.

The Fiery Phoenixes huddled together for warmth, but it wasn't helping their scenario.

"Alright, I say we go get the Foxes," said Courtney.

"What? Let those losers handle themselves," replied Heather.

"No she is right, I can sense their auras, they are in danger as well," said Dawn. She was curled up next to Scott, who seemed to constantly switch between enjoying it and warily eyeing Joe, who openly dissaproved. The scene flashed to the girl's side of the Fox's cabin. The boys on the Frozen Foxes had a similar idea to the boys on the Phoenixes, as they had come over to huddle together for warmth on the girl's side as well.

"Can I just say our team name is really ironic right now," said Sam. Dakota was huddled up next to Sam on one side, and Izzy was on the other side.

"Thank you captain obvious," replied Noah. He was next to Cody, grabbing onto eachother with Sierra grabbing onto them both.

"I gotta see Bridge," said Geoff, "I can't die without seeing her again."

"No way soldier, too risky," replied Brick.

"I agree with Captain Sprinkle over there, no way jose," said Jo.

"I have to," said Geoff through chattering teeth.

"I agree, I have to see Zoey," said Mike.

"But you have me here baby," said Anne Maria, snuggling closer to Mike.

"I have-" retorted Mike, before he was interrupted by another shake.

"What the?" said Suki. As she said that, Blaineley shot her a look, which Suki was oblivious too.

Blaineley (CONF): I will figure out what she is up to, it's just a matter of when

"Alright contestants," said Chris, coming over an intercom system, "I don't have much time, as you can tell, the power is out, this intercom is running on our one back-up generator, it is for emergencies, and the loving audience of Total Drama hearing my voice is definitely an emergency. This is not a challenge, you are-" The intercom went silent. The scene flashed to both teams looking at the silent intercom speaker in their respective cabins.

"Was that straight up?" asked Leshawna.

"I can't tell, I am not near enough to Chris," replied Dawn. A third shake followed.

"Alright it is settled, we are going to get the Foxes," said Courtney.

"And who decided that princess?" asked Duncan. Courtney immediately turned and got right in his face.

"If you think you have any right to call me princess you are strongly mistaken," said Courtney. Gwen looked on with a look of guilt on her face, and Heather looked on with a smirk.

"Alright guys let's just take it easy," said Bridgette. She began to walk over to them, but tripped and fell on top of Alejandro.

"Well hello," said Alejandro, who was holding Heather in his arms. Heather stared angrily at the surfer girl.

"Oh don't even," said Bridgette, quickly getting up and sitting over by Lindsay. Heather closed her eyes happily, but quickly realized it was Alejandro she was cuddling up to and jerked away.

"I think Courtney is right, like, what if I don't get to see Beth before I die," said Lindsay.

"Beth is eliminated, remember?" said Trent. Lindsay had a sad look in her eyes, so Trent halted any follow up comments.

"Beth is gone, Tyler is gone, this is horrible," said Lindsay.

"Tyler is still in," replied Gwen.

"Wait, I'm confused," said Lindsay.

"I can't take it! I would rather freeze to death then sit here with you people," yelled Joe. He got up and stormed outside. Courtney got up and motioned for the contestants to follow. As they were walking outside, they saw the Foxes walking towards them.

"Bridgette!" said Geoff, in unison with Mike.

"Zoey!" said Mike, in unison with Geoff. The two ran over and hugged their respective girlfriends. Tyler came over and hugged Lindsay, who had a puzzled look on her face, but then remembered it was Tyler and smiled.

"Tyson!" said Lindsay, "I am so glad you returned to the game." Anne Maria ran up and hugged Mike and Zoey. The two looked angry, but Anne Maria was not going to let the two have a moment.

"Alright, why is she in our alliance again?" whispered Sierra to Jo.

"Your what?" replied Noah.

"Uh...nothing," said Sierra, "oops." Jo face palmed, and Sierra walked over and hugged Cody nervously.

"Help me," she said, with Cody tight in her arms.

Cody (CONF): Ok, so sure Sierra is creepy, a stalker, and kind of weird, but she has always been there for me, so if she needs help I am willing

"So please fill me in more about this little alliance of yours," said Noah, stepping up to Jo.

"As if I'm going to tell you scrawny," replied Jo. Noah turned around, as if preparing to make an announcement to the whole team until Jo picked him up by his collar.

"Alliance or not, you spill this to the team and I will make sure you are the next to go," said Jo. Noah whimpered, and reluctantly motioned he would keep his mouth shut. The contestants all formed one big huddled as the blizzard intensified and the temperature shot down.

"Alright we have to h-help them," said Chris, from inside the craft servies tent. His eyes were locked on the thermometer. He was huddled with Chef and a few interns.

"Since w-when do you care?" said Chef.

"I d-don't, but I don't want little miss l-lawsuit to strike again," replied Chris. The two reached a silent agreement and headed out into the storm to save the contestants.

"Alright as a CIT I know exactly what to do in t-this situation," said Courtney. She began drawing in the snow a gameplan for them, that surprisingly made sense.

"S-since when did you actually know what you were doing?" said Leshawna.

"O-oh this was in a horror movie, what we need to do is form a r-ring facing out, not only for warmth but in case whatever is causing that shaking c-comes a-after us," said Gwen.

"Let's do it," said Bridgette, in Geoff's arms. She took a deep breath and stepped out of Geoff's arms. Zoey soon followed. The two coralled all the contestants into a circle. DJ kept the smallest contestants, Cody, Suki, and Noah, close to him, since he had the most body warmth. The huddle slowly but surely followed Courtney's plan, and headed towards the craft services tent.

"Why don't we just go back to the cabin?" asked Noah.

"Because w-we don't want to die there," said Lindsay.

"Blondie is right for once, we need to find Chris and demand he h-help us," said Courtney.

"Look over there," said Scott, pointing to a huddle approaching in the distance.

"Thank g-god you are alive," said Chris.

"Thanks," replied Lindsay.

"Not you, C-courtney, I wasn't about to have another lawsuit," said Chris.

"Feeling the love Chris, feeling the love," said Jo. The giant huddle of all the TD cast slowly moved back towards Chris's quarters. They stumbled upon a luxurious cabin, that had power. They all quickly rushed through the door and immediately ran to the fireplace.

"Your place had power?" said Brick, "Why didn't you share any? It was dark."

"Well about that, I had Chef set off some bombs to destroy the generator's connection to your cabins, and redirected it to mine so I would be warmer, and your challenge would be harder," said Chris.

"Well then why did you come and save us?" asked Heather, smirking. Chris looked stumped by this question, so he moved on.

"Anyways, since it was Phoenix's that created and executed the plan that got you out of the blizzard, they are tonight's challenge winners," said Chris. The Phoenixes all cheered except for Joe, who was looking forward to putting his alliance into action and voting off one of the stronger Phoenix members like Courtney, Gwen or Heather.

"That's how we roll," said Leshawna, hugging Bridgette and Gwen. She looked over and saw Zoey by herself, so she pulled her into the hug. Eventually, it lead to a group hug with all the Phoenixes except Scott, Joe, and Lightning.

"Ew, way too mushy for us manly men," said Lightning.

"Agreed," said Joe. Scott looked over and saw Dawn happily between Courtney and Alejandro in the hug and looked a little upset.

"Isn't that right Scott?" asked Joe.

"Yeah, yeah super mushy," said Scott. In the meantime, the Foxes had time to discuss elimination.

"So it's gotta be Sierra," said Noah, who was sitting with Cody by Chris's fireplace. "She clearly has some sort of alliance going."

"It can't," said Cody, with a surprising amount of force in his voice.

"Why not? Is your little crush becoming something more?" said Noah jokingly.

"I don't want to be in this game without Sierra," said Cody. Noah seemed a little upset, and the two made awkward eye contact.

"Pssh whatever, we can go for Anne Maria then, it seems like she is in on it too," said Noah. Cody grinned at him but Noah walked away.

"Yo Tyler," said Noah, "Help us?" As Noah worked on Tyler, Cody went to his former allies Mike and Dakota. They agreed on Anne Maria.

"Alright, it has to be Sierra," said Blaineley, to Jo and Anne Maria.

"You're right, if she goes blabber-mouthing about our alliance we are screwed," replied Anne Maria.

"Oh Brick," said Jo, turning around and walking away from the three ladies. Anne Maria went to talk to Izzy as Blaineley went to work on Suki.

"So girlfriend to girlfriend here, who are you voting for tonight? Because I heard that Sierra is trying to eliminate you," said Blaineley, putting her arm around Suki.

"U-uh I was thinking Anne Maria actually," said Suki.

"Ha. That's funny, Anne Maria was the one who told Sierra to not vote you off," said Blaineley, "just think about it." Blaineley walked away leaving Suki something to think about. The scene flashed to that night at the elimination ceremony. The blizzard had finally lightened up, but snow was piled high.

"Toasty," said Chris, finishing a cup of hot cocoa.

"You know what goes well with hot chocolate? Marshmallows, and I only have thirteen of them right now on my plate. Too bad that there are fourteen of you," said Chris, "but lucky for Brick and Jo, you two are safe." He tossed the two marshmallows.

"Thank you sir," said Brick.

"Cody, Noah, Suki, you three are safe as well," said Chris. He tossed the three marshmallows, and Suki seemed confused.

Suki (CONF): Blaineley had to have been lying, good thing I voted the way I did, if she had been telling the truth I would have at least been in the bottom five or six

"Tyler, Geoff, Mike, you three love birds are safe," said Chris.

"Yes!" all three cheered in unison. They had a group high-five and walked up to claim their immunity.

"Dakota, Sam, Izzy, you three are safe as well," said Chris. The three caught their marshmallows exicitedly.

"Finally Blaineley, sadly you get one of these," said Chris. Blaineley smirked and caught her marshmallow.

"You aren't getting rid of me anytime soon McLean," said Blaineley, lounging back and tossing the marshmallow in her mouth.

"Anne Maria, Sierra, one of you is going home tonight, the final marshmallow of the night goes to...

"What?!" said Jo, Anne Maria and Blaineley in unison. All three had gotten up off their stumps at the same time.

Sierra shot Cody a grateful look, but the looks Blaineley and Jo were shooting her were definitely not grateful looks.

"Looks like you are out girlfriend," said Chris.

"Goodbye Vito," said Anne Maria, running and jumping in Mike's lap.

"Come with me," she said.

"As if," said Mike. He stood up causing her to fall out of his lap.

"Well it's been fun everyone," said Anne Maria. She walked down the deck and hopped in the Boat of Losers.

"I will take boat over catapault any day," said Anne Maria, as it pulled away.

"Well that was a lame elimination, way too peaceful," said Chris, "but will it stay that way? Find out next time on Total, Drama, Explosion!"

Chapter 13: The Great Sled Race
"Last time on Total Drama Explosion, our contestants got all mushy and 'worked together' to save eachother from the blizzard, well most of them. Boring. Sure they managed to get out of the blizzard alive, but hey, a couple of casualties definitely would have boosted our ratings. Will these happy times continue on? Of course not, or I wouldn't be Chris Mclean. Find out right now on Total Drama Explosion," said Chris.

Theme Song

The scene flashed to the contestants standing at the top of the cliff. Snow was piled high due to the previous blizzard, and the contestants were all shivering.

"Why, why do you have to wake us up early," said Leshawna.

"Because, it's fun," said Chris, "so are all of you guys ready for today's challenge?"

"Yes. Woohoo," said Noah sarcastically.

"Glad to hear it," said Chris, ignoring the sarcasm, "Remember that bike racing challenge all those seasons back? That ended up booting the beautiful Lindsay?"

"Yeah that wasn't very fun," said Linday.

"Well we will be recreating that challenge, however this time we are using sleds. See your teams? For this challenge they are no longer," said Chris.

"So like, we are merging already?" asked Lindsay.

"No, no we aren't, I said for this challenge, got it Lindsay? You will return to your team in the next challenge should you still be in the game," said Chris. She nodded her head.

Lindsay (CONF): Oh my gosh, I cannot believe I made the merge

"Lightning don't get it, so we aren't merged, but we don't have teams just for this episode? That's just dumb," said Lightning.

"I think Chris is running out of ideas," said Gwen, "next thing you know we will all be voting for a Head of Household." Trent snickered, but stopped abruptly when he realized Chris and Duncan were both staring at him.

"Anyways, you will be building a sled, and racing it down the cliff. Last person to cross the finish line, regardless of the team, get's eliminated. If you get first you get a special reward," said Chris.

"So like, a merged reward?" said Lindsay. Chris face-palmed and just continued.

"You will be using the parts from this junk pile, good luck," said Chris. He motioned to a large pile of junk behind him, and the contestants headed towards it to start building their sleds. Duncan however, had a different idea.

Duncan (CONF): These losers are all taking their time with their sleds. Hello? Why not just grab something flat and go

"See ya," said Duncan, running towards the hill. He jumped up, slid the sled under him, and shot down the hill. He didn't make it very far, as he immediately crashed into a tree. Courtney burst out laughing as Duncan trudged back up the hill, head to toe in snow.

Zoey (CONF): There are so many people in this individual challenge, and I don't want any of the Phoenixes to go home. Well except maybe Scott or Joe. What worries me the most though is, what if Mike loses?

"Need help Zoey?" said Mike. He was holding two boards, some rails, and a rudder that lookes like it could be used for steering.

"Don't you need those?" said Zoey.

"No, you can use them," said Mike. Zoey blushed and took the supplies.

"See Zoey, you had nothing to worry about last season," said Dawn.

"Well you don't either, I saw you with Scott," said Zoey. Dawn seemed taken aback by the comment.

"I don't know what your talking about," said Dawn. She immediately gathered some junk lying nearby and walked away. Zoey sat there looking confused, but then went back to building her sled.
