Chapter Text
Total drama
You've probably heard of it
I mean, it's only like, the most popular Reality TV Show in Canada, as well as being pretty popular in Japan, the US, and Australia
8 seasons, 2 specials, and a whole spin-off
Among all that, there are 5 different casts
The spin-off cast, the biggest cast. While the spin-off is pretty well received especially in the present day by the fan base, it was nowhere near as popular as the original season when it aired. That’s probably why it only had one season. This cast, while known, is probably the cast with the most normal life post-show
Gen 4, the newest cast. After the main show being off the air for 12 years it came back with the reboot. With a cast of 16, after Gen 1 it's probably the most beloved generation to date. Living in a more modern era with social media and all, they're all pretty popular online, some even before the season's debuts. Every camper is beloved by someone, which trust me is a first for total drama generations.
Gen 3, the most infamous cast. Gen 3 has its fans and its haters. Pahkitew Island was a pretty infamous season, and it's probably part of the show's cancellation back in 2011. Once the reboot was announced and people got back into total drama more people have grown to love Pahkitew Island and its Gen 3 cast. And on the bright side, since they weren't as popular as the other generations, in comparison to Gens 1, 2, and 4, they live the most normal life. And hey, it could be worse, at least it wasn't as bad as All-Stars.
Gen 2, the smallest cast. Gen 2 had big shoes to fill being the successors to the beloved Gen 1 cast. And they did… decent. Okay, this cast is pretty loved, some campers way more than others, but also has a lot of critics. And All-Stars definitely didn't help with that. It's oddly surprising how more of Gen 2 isn't as in the spotlight these days, but at the same time it's understandable.
All of these generations were contacted for a final season, one last chance. competing in dangerous challenges, eating gross food, making friends and allies and enemies, and almost dying several times, at a chance at a lot of money! And not just some measly 1 million bucks this time.
The race cast accepted, most of them unaware of what they were getting into. While a lot of the challenges in the ridonculous race were difficult, most of them were child's play compared to the main show.
The reboot cast accepted, a bit confident they had a good shot. Seeing as the rest of the cast members haven't competed in over a decade and all, they were rusty, while they had just competed on their second season just about a year ago now. Oh yeah, they got this in the bag.
The Pahkitew Island cast accepted, some wanting to prove themselves, some wanting a second chance, some wanting more screen time, some wanting that cash prize, some wanting to reconnect with someone, some wanting to meet someone, some wanting friends, and some just wanting to come back just because.
The revenge cast accepted, though some needed convincing. The pre-merge cast all accepted easily enough, maybe a couple who were slightly hesitant but overall got on board immediately. The mergers and All-Stars however were more hesitant, which was fair, but once they learned the prize money had more than quadrupled, those minds changed pretty quickly.
How exciting, right? All the generations coming together to compete, from ages ranging from 18 to 70, one more shot at the prize money, it’s perfect!
Well.. except one slight issue…
Gen 1, the original cast. Probably the most beloved cast, most nostalgic, also the most famous, and infamous. The gen 1 cast has had its ups and downs, mostly on or because of the show. Some of them are living their teenage dreams, while others are doing these you wouldn't have expected of them. Some are trying to build themselves back up, while others try to tone certain aspects of themselves down. Some married their childhood sweetheart, others are currently living that single life. Some have kids, though most don't. Despite all they have gone through, at the end of the day, they all did it together, and that has connected them all in a way. Not sure how you would label it though, Friend group? Found family? Trauma survivors? Who knows, they probably don't even know.
The Og cast, every single one of them, all 25 of them, had rejected the offer to come back for the mega season.
Now, despite even in present all of them having the show connected to them in some way, hell they have been during this public reunion thing for the past few years now. Not one, not one of the 25 Gen 1 contestants wanted to come back, not even the huge cash prize could convince them.
Oh well I guess…
Is what a normal company would say, but the producers and company behind total drama weren't normal in the slightest. No no no.
They were all gonna be in this season. They all signed the contract and all.
And the night before the first day, they all suddenly… disappeared.
Katie and Sadie were leaving the Cinema - They never made it home
Heather went to lock up shop for the night - She didn't reach her car
Noah was reading a book - He didn’t get to finish it
Geoff - Unconscious
Eva - Unconscious
Beth - Unconscious
Unconscious
Unconscious
Unconscious
Unconscious
U n c o n s c i o u s
2 dozen people, all suddenly were knocked unconscious all throughout Canada
All of them had partaken in a certain reality show called “Total Drama”
Generation 1 to be precise
You could ask the question, “Why”?
But let’s be honest with ourselves
We all know why.
"Wake Up Campers!"
Courtney sprung awake and looked around, she was on a plane it looked like.
And she wasn’t the only one.
***
Everyone else was there.
Though they were waking up a bit slower than Courtney did.
"Hope you all had a good rest."
It was Chris.
That was his voice.
It was playing from a speaker, an intercom.
Eva: WHAT THE HELL!
Looks like Eva is up, loud as ever.
Eva: WHAT'S GOING ON!
Though asking the right questions.
Geoff: h-huh what?
Tyler: mmmm 5 more minutes…
Heather: Where am I?!
Duncan: Oh great…
Lindsay: Tyler, get up!
Leshawna: please don't tell me this is what I think this is…
"As of today, Total Drama has turned 18 years old! The show is all grown up!"
{Okay so it's July 8th, so I've only been unconscious for one night.} Courtney thought to herself, still trying to process everything.
"And I know the last few years you guys have had your own little reunion, which I've never gotten an invite for but it's cool, whatever dudes."
"But! That gave me the idea of this awesome mega-season! All 100 previous contestants! Isn't that awesome?"
Gwen: No! It's not!
Justin: Are you seriously asking that!
DJ: I've said that I didn't want to be on the show ever again!
Katie: You kidnapped us!
Sadie: That has got to be illegal!
Beth: You can't keep us here!
"Yes I can. You all signed a contract!"
Blaineley: I would never willingly do that.
Sierra: What contract???
Cody: I didn't sign a contract!
Owen: I'm so confused right now!
Noah: No we haven't, and even if we did we were definitely alluded somehow.
"Well, you did, even if you didn't realize it, you all did."
Bridgette: Okay that's definitely illegal!
Izzy: soooooo Illegal, super duper Illegal!
Trent: This is so wrong…
Harold: I don't even remember signing anything recently…
Alejandro: Parece que el diablo ataca de nuevo… (Looks like the devil strikes again)
Ezekiel: …I can't believe I'm here again…
By now, everyone had woken up, all of them being in a state of confusion, fear, and distress.
"Anyways, let's get onto your pre-challenge."
Pre challenge? Everyone was basically wondering the same thing…
{What the fuck is a "pre-challenge"?}
"Since you're all veterans, and haven't competed in a while, I decided it would be fun to give a fun warm-up challenge, for old times sake!"
{And by "fun" he means traumatizing and painful.} Everyone was thinking
"Here's the deal, you're all on a plane near Wawanakwa. All you have to do is find your own way to the island. You're allowed to use anything you find on the plane, as well as keep anything you want that's on the plane. Once I turn off the autopilot you may begin! And please try not to kill each other, I wouldn't want you guys too messed up by the time you reach the island, good luck campers!"
And just like that, the intercom turned off.
And everyone stayed silent for a second
Then two
Then three
Then five
Then ten-
Cody: Wait, what did he say about the autopilot?!
And with perfect comedic timing. The plane started to fall out of the sky.
Geoff: OH CRAP!
Owen: WERE GONNA DIE!
Lindsay: *screams*
Katie: SADIE HOLD ME!
Chris McLean was a bit of an infamous man, He is the host with the most, of the infamous show, Total Drama.
6, well technically 5 but really 6 seasons that he hosted, and they were fun and all but he was also happy to do other things once the show's cancellation. As well as having some free time.
He was a bit excited when he got the chance to film those reboot seasons, but he will admit, the show has been losing its charm season by season. There's a reason people love season 1 so much after all.
But now he got a deal he couldn't refuse with this mega season! It's like a big All-Stars, but it's actually good.
And once this season has reached its conclusion, he'll go off the grid, and live in peace and harmony. Maybe even more than that!
Assuming his usual luck comes in clutch, which it usually does
But enough about that. He has some contestants to introduce.
Chris: Yo! We're coming to you live From Camp Wawanakwa! Somewhere in Muskoka Ontario! I'm your host with the most! Chris McLean! Here with the most groundbreaking drama-filled season of the best reality show on the web! Total! Drama! Battle Royale!
Chris: Now, let's meet our contestants, newest to oldest, from our reboot cast we have…
Chris: Priya, Millie, Caleb, Damien.
***
Chris: Bowie, Emma, Wayne, and Raj.
***
Chris: Axel, Ripper, MK, Julia
***
Chris: Zee, Nichelle, Chase, and Lauren. AKA Scary Girl
***
Chris: Great to have you all back again for another season!
Confessional - Firsts of many I'm sure.
[Static Buzzing]
Lauren: Despite it being a whole year I still haven’t forgotten what my former teammates did. I can’t wait to hear the screams I’m going to cause them to have this season!
[Static Buzzing]
Nichelle: Okay thirds time the charm! I'm not 100% confident I'll win, but it would be nice to make merge this time.
[Static Buzzing]
Priya: we’re so ready for this season! The three of us have been training every day since we got the news!
Caleb: Practicing Challenges and thinking up game plans.
Millie: Studying past challenges and competitors.
Priya: We got this! Am I Right!
Caleb and Millie: YEAH!
[Static Buzzing]
Ripper and Axel are in the confessional, but they're just making out
[Static Buzzing]
Chase: That big multi-million cash prize has the Chase-a-nator's name all over it! And once I win, Emma will want to get back together, and it will be awesome! Who wouldn't want to date a multimillionaire? Am I right?
[Static Buzzing]
Okay, what’s more concerning, the fact that being kidnapped and being stuck in a crashing plane isn’t the most craziest and deadliest thing that anyone here has done…
...or the fact that instead of panicking or trying to find parachutes to escape like a normal person they immediately tried to pilot the plane themselves
and by pilot I mean try to put back on the autopilot, and when I say themselves I mean specifically Justin and Izzy.
Justin did fly a plane once, it did crash at the end but he was flying it decently up till then, and Izzy said she stole a plane once to escape some soldiers or something and learned to pilot it on the spot.
Neither were great… but it’s the best they had, and it seemed like it worked as they were no longer freefalling out of the sky.
and while Justin and Izzy were working on that, the rest were searching the plane itself for anything useful.
Beth: Found another parachute!
Leshawna: Great, that makes 20 so far.
Beth puts the parachute in the pile with the others.
Courtney: Okay 20 down, 5 more to go. Knowing Mclean they're probably in a really hard and weird spot. Oh, Mclean… I might not be a lawyer but I still have my degree, the things I could sue you for-
Justin: Hey, Courtney?
Courtney: Huh?
Courtney was cut off from her tangent by Justin, who was also accompanied by Izzy
Justin: Okay we got good news, bad news, great news, and worst news.
Courtney: what-
Justin: Great news! We got the autopilot on so we aren't freefalling.
Izzy: Good news! We found these!
Izzy and Justin Each hold up a Parachute, making the total 22
Courtney: oh good you guys found more parachutes, now we just need 3 more. Not sure where the last 3 are though, probably somewhere we wouldn’t expect like…
Izzy: The outside of the plane! I’ll go check!
Courtney: Yeah- wait what.
Courtney went to look back at Izzy, but she had already run off, most likely to say what she said she was going to do, but you never fully know with Izzy.
Courtney: Okay… wait, what's the bad news?
Justin: Bad news, while we got the autopilot on to stop us from freefalling, neither me nor Izzy knows how to make the autopilot fly to the island ourselves, and we don’t wanna risk flying it manually.
Courtney: It’s fine, it’s fine. I guess we’ll have to jump for it with the parachutes once we find the last three-
Izzy: There's none outside the plane!
Courtney: where did you- never mind, well there has to be three more on the plane somewhere!
Noah: I don’t think there is. Look at the parachutes, 11 have red patches, 11 have green. I think there's only enough for the original cast. Noah holds up 2 parachutes as he says this, to prove his point.
Sierra: But there are 25 of us in the original Gen 1 cast!
Harold: Well actually, we’re the original Gen 1 cast, you, Blaineley, and Alejandro are more… Gen 1.5-
Courtney: Okay okay! So we only have 22 parachutes, big deal! People usually parachute with an instructor anyway, a few people will just have to share!
Noah: That seems too easy, I bet half of these aren't even actual parachutes, he’s done that before.
Heather: Surprised he even gave up parachutes to begin with, guess he felt generous.
Lindsay: Wait so, we’ll all have to pair up?
Beth: And with the amount of parachutes to person ratio a few would have to go in trios.
Courtney: OKAY! Let’s assume that one color doesn't have actual parachutes, the other does. How would we know that without testing it??
Justin: We could do just that! Testing them!
***
Courtney: What?! That’s not a good plan!
Justin: No no it is! We should test them! Now! As soon as possible!
Courtney: Justin? Why are you looking at me like that??
Justin: haha… remember when I said there was uhm… worse news?
Courtney: …justin… what did you do…
Justin: Nothing! Just uhm, there is only enough fuel in the plane for the plane to stay afloat for at most…. 15 minutes…
Courtney: WHAT?! So We’re Gonna Crash In 15 Minutes?!
Justin: In the best case yes! It Could Be As Early As 5-
Courtney: THAT’S EVEN WORST!!!
Owen: WE’RE GONNA DIE HERE!
Katie: I Wanna Go home!
Trent: This Is Bad Guys! Really Bad!
Duncan: So great, we’re on a death trap with parachutes we aren’t even sure are actual parachutes. How would we even test them??
Noah: …I think I have an Idea. But I’m not sure if anyone's up for it.
We cut back to Chris and the Reboot Cast
Chris: Okay, as you’re all aware, this is the biggest total drama season ever! Multiple generations all coming together for the biggest prize ever!
Raj: Wait! By multiple generations do you mean… all of them?!
Priya: We’re gonna get to compete with the original cast?!
Wayne: That’s so awesome! That means we could get to meet Tyler!
Julia: Or Heather and Scott.
Lauren: Or Scarlett and Mal! They’re my favorites!
MK: Why am I not surprised?
Priya: I could *gasp* talk to the previous winners! Like Beth or Zoey or Sky!
Ripper: And Owen!
Chase: And Duncan too?!
Caleb: I’ve always wanted to meet DJ, or Ella, or Dawn!
Millie: Harold’s always been a personal favorite of mine.
Damien: Same! I Can’t wait to meet him! And I can’t wait to meet Leonard too!
Everyone kinda looks at Damien oddly for that one
Damien: What?
Confessional - Odd Fav Picks
[Static Buzzing]
Damien: Yes, I did finally watch the previous seasons. Yes, Leonard is one of my favorite contestants, don't judge me.
…
I can feel you judging me!
[Static Buzzing]
Chris: Yes yes I can see you’re all excited to meet the cast from the previous three generations before you. But there is one cast that we got to see first. You see around 13ish years ago the network tried a different show format under the total drama brand, it didn’t do as well as the original but this cast is still technically it’s own total drama generation.
HONK!
Chris: And here they come now! Give a warm welcome to the Ridonculous Race Cast!
There's a boat that comes and stops by the dock, containing the Ridonculous Race cast on it
Confessional - Oh dear
[Static Buzzing]
Priya: The race cast is here?! I mean I've watched the season a few times but only in my free time! I never really studied it like with the main show! Not the challenges, not the pairs. I'm not even sure if I have all the contestants names memorized! I… I DIDN'T PREPARE FOR THIS!
[Static Buzzing]
Chris: Introducing the Rockers Rock and Spud, The Stepbrothers Lorenzo and Chet
The Rockers and The StepBrothers are the first 2 teams to be introduce, as they walk down you can see them talking to each other, from what can be perceive over the tv feed it’s something about either music or video games, probably both
Chris: The Cadets MacArthur and Sanders, the Ice dancers Josee and Jacques
Sanders Gives a wave to the reboot cast while MacArthur and Josee seem to be having some sort of staring contest
Chris: The Daters Stephanie and Ryan, Former Best Friends Carrie and Devin
Stephanie was waking slightly ahead of everyone, while Carrie and Ryan seem to be having some friendly conversation, and judging how Carrie and Devin are holding hands, with rings on their left hands, it seems they're more than just friends now, but everyone has known that for quite some time now.
Chris: The Vegans Laurie and Miles, The Geniuses Ellody and Mary
The Geniuses didn't say anything, kinda just staring at the gen 4 cast, probably already doing some sort of calculations in their heads. Laurie and Miles however, were giving each other a kinda mean look at each other, more Miles than Laurie, guess there friendship is in a rocky place, if they're even still friends.
Chris: Fashion Bloggers Tom and Jen, The Tennis Rivals Gerry and Pete
Tom and Jen walked down all fashionably, Jen giving a compliment to Pete on his hat, while him and Gerry walk down the dock hand in hand- wait, are those wedding bands their wearing?
Chris: The Adversity Twins Jay and Mickey, The Sisters Emma and Kitty
Kitty was having some friendly conversation with the twins, over the feed you can hear Mickey mention something about her and Jay's recent trip, Meanwhile Emma seems to have a stern look on her face, not aimed at anything or anyone in particular as far as you were aware
Chris: Mother and Daughter Kelly and Taylor, Father and Son, Dwayne Senior and Junior-
Wayne: Big Bro!
Wayne rushes up to give Dwayne Junior a hug. Who also seems happy to see Wayne, Meanwhile you can see Raj saying hello to Mr.Gordie while Kelly and Taylor kinda just walk past, a bit annoyed, but only very mildly.
Chris: As cute as this little family reunion is, can you please move off the Dock so I can finish.
Wayne: “Oh, sorry coach.” Wayne says as he and the others walk off the dock
Chris: and finally we have The Goths Ennui and Crimson, Surfer Bro Brody, and LARPer Tammy
Out of everyone, The Goths look like they have changed the least, at least appearance-wise. Tammy on the other hand is one of the more noticeably different mostly by her hair, while Brody still looks like Brody, just more mature
Confessional - What do you mean there’s a camera in the bathroom?!
[Static Buzzing]
Wayne: I’m so excited to not only be back here for another season but also to be with big bro and dad! How awesome is that! It’s like back when I was just starting to learn hockey, ah good times.
[Static Buzzing]
Tom: Is this really where we have to do our confessionals?! This is so unsanitary
[Static Buzzing]
Priya: It’s fine It’s fine, it’s not like the race cast makes up a third of the contestants or anything!! Hahahahaah… It’s fine, I’ll just have to make my observations in real time! No big deal! Right? Right?!
[Static Buzzing]
Courtney: I'm sorry, I believe I just misheard you.
Noah: No, I'm serious.
Courtney: You want 2 pairs to jump out, 2 parachutes each, one red and one green, to test them?!
Noah: Yes.
Courtney looked at Noah like he was crazy
Noah: So, any volunteers?
Izzy: I’ll Go! Izzy says while raising her hand and moving to where Noah and the plane door are.
Eva: And I’ll make sure she actually opens the parachute Eva says, moving to stand next to Izzy.
Noah: Okay that’s one pair, any other volunteers?
There was a short silence
Ezekiel: Eh, I’ve survived worst, I’ll go. Ezekiel said as he walked over to the others
Noah: Okay anyone else?
Duncan: Why don’t you go?
Noah: a few people have to go in trios, the lighter people should be in trios since parachutes aren’t exactly designed for three people, especially these ones. Why don’t you go?
Duncan: Well I-
Tyler: I’ll do it!
Lindsay: What- Tyler!
Tyler: Lindsay, I’ll be fine, I always am. Tyler says while giving Lindsay a hug of reassurance
Noah: okay that’s our two pairs. Now one of you needs to pull the green parachute, the other red. And you have to do it at the same time, got it? Now which pair is pulling which color?
Izzy: Izzy calls dibs on green!
Tyler: I’m fine with red, it is my favorite color after all.
The two pairs put on their respective parachute, and attach themselves to the partner. Then they make their way to the area where they are supposed to jump.
And do just that.
And after approximately 20ish seconds Tyler turned to the Izva paring
Tyler: Okay Are You Guys Ready??
Eva: WHAT??
Tyler: I SAID ARE YOU GUYS READY??
Eva: YEAH
Tyler: OKAY ON THE COUNT OF THREE WE OPEN OUR CHUTES Tyler says, trying to speak loud enough to be heard threw the wooshing of the air they’re hearing from falling threw the air. Holding up three fingers to make sure the message is understood
Tyler: ONE!
TWO!
THREE!!
The two pairs opened the correct colored parachutes
The green parachute opens with well a Parachute
The red parachute however
Did not
Tyler: Not a parachute. NOT A PARACHUTE! NOT A PARACHUTE-
Ezekiel: TYLER CALM DOWN. WE JUST GOTTA OPEN THE OTHER PARACHUTE!
Tyler: OKAY OKAY! … WHERE IS THE CORD?!
Ezekiel: ON YOUR LEFT!
…
NO TYLER YOUR LEFT!
Tyler: GOT IT!
The parachutes themselves didn’t seem faulty, the real ones anyway, and the descent to the water below was smooth sailing
Tyler: “We’re Alive! We’re- DUCK!”
Oh yeah, did I forget to mention the non-parachutes contained other helpful items? yeah they fell out when they opened it so now it’s falling from the sky
Tyler: “Okay I think we’re good”
Ezekiel: Wait. What if the items in the fake-a-chutes were important?
Tyler: I mean maybe, but it’s all dropped in the water and… wait don’t tell me
Ezekiel: I’m going down there
Tyler: What! Can you breathe underwater or something??
Ezekiel: “No, but I can hold my breath for a really long time, I’ll be quick.” Ezekiel says before diving down into the depths below
Well isn’t this Deja Vu, 14 contestants in a plane in which they have to jump out of to land on the island
Chris: Now, if everyone could look up, and say hello to the Pahkitew Island Cast!
Confessional - Conflicting opinions
[Static Buzzing]
EmmaTD: Let’s be real here, no one likes the Pahkitew cast, all of them are annoying, especially that Dave guy.
[Static Buzzing]
Junior: OMG I LOVE PAHKITEW ISLAND! Okay, I know it isn’t the best season, but it’s the first I’ve watched so it’s very nostalgic for me. I remember watching it with my dad, little bro, and mom after RR. It was nice. I miss it…
[Static Buzzing]
Chris: Now introducing- Chris is interrupted by a sudden this follow by a yelp
Sammy: Ow!
Amy: Thanks for breaking my fall Samey!
Amy Looks mostly the same. She is wearing a simple red dress that looks similar to her old cheerleader uniform, with the addition of a leather jacket. Sammy has on a Hoodie with a crop top and jeans, the most notable thing however was the orange highlights in her hair.
Chris: …Amy and Sammy, Next up Leonard and Sugar
Chris says as Leonard and Sugar lands side by side. Leonard’s wearing some kind of fantasy cloak with some simple shirt and pants, no more fake beard, and the top hood is down showing his coily hair and red earrings. Sugar meanwhile is wearing a pink dress with puffy sleeves making it almost look like a princess dress, with a pink headband and a little thing on the headband that almost looks like a tiny gold crown, with a little blue gem that matches her blue earrings.
Leonard: After you, my princess.
Sugar: Oh Always the gentleman aren’t you? Sugar says while reaching out a hand to Leonard But this princess would much rather have her powerful wizard by her side. The two proceed to walk over to the other contestants, hand in hand.
Chris: Okay, next us Shawn and Jasmine
Shawn seems to be weaning a green jacket with some dark green sweatpants and leather boots, seems he also has a bit of stubble and his hair is grown to about mullet length.
Jasmine has a green hoodie that looks similar to Shawn’s jacket, some shorts and boots, her hair in locs and a ponytail with a green scrunchie. Both were wearing Green beanies, though Jasmine’s was a slightly darker green then Shawn’s. Both landed safely and both (mostly Shawn) scanned the area momentarily once they landed before walking over.
Chris: Sky and Beardo
Beardo didn’t look much different appearance wise, his outfit seems to consists of a simple hoodie, suspender pants, and black shoes. The most notiable thing was his shirt which was a microphone with wings and a halo on it.
Sky meanwhile her outfit looks similar to the one she had way back then, same purple shoes, a light yellow shirt with purple stripes, the differences being she had a black hoodie, simple purple earrings instead of her orange feather ones, and finally her hair was cut pretty short now.
Chris: Rodney, Ella, and Max
Rodney, Ella, and Max all look, mostly the same honestly.
Max seemed to be wearing an outfit like his outfit on the original series, except his top seems to be a sweater instead of a jacket, and his pants a more dark grey, his hair is still purple, but now it’s in a ponytail.
Ella is wearing a pink corset dress with puff sleeves, hair much longer and tied back with a pink ribbon.
Rodney however is… pretty much the exact same, only differences are that his hair is a bit longer and his shirt is a more light pink then a light brown.
Chris: And last but certainly least, Topher Scarlet and Dave.
Topher was wearing a simple but nice suit with simple red earrings and a lavender tie, probably to look ready for the cameras. Scarlett was wearing a simple white collared shirt with a yellow sweater vest, her hair now having bangs, hair was also still in a bun but it's noticeably messier. Dave’s outfit was similar, sweater vest collared shirt combo, though he was also wearing a tie, and his wear was in a small low ponytail.
The rest of the cast lands safely, though a few (mainly Topher, Scarlet, Sky, and Dave) are a bit upset at the rushed introduction
Confessional - Guess we’re on a time crunch (or the writer lacked introduction ideas)
[Static Buzzing]
Axel: I can’t believe I’m in the same place as Shawn! SHAWN! I loved watching his survival videos and reading his blog, I even have his book! “Zombie Survival 101” I wonder if I can somehow get it for him to sign…
[Static Buzzing]
Chet: While I’ve never met Sky, with both of us being gymnasts and former TD contestants we do follow each other on social media and we’ve had a few minor conversations. Who knows, maybe if we’re on the same team we can become like close friends or something.
[Static Buzzing]
Damien: Say what you want about Leonard but I loved his short time on Pakhitew and RR. Though I will admit it was his DnD series on Youtube that really sold him for me.
[Static Buzzing]
Amy: After Pahkitew my life at home was hell! Everyone was so rude to me the entire rest of highschool just because of “how I treated Samey” Have these people never had siblings before?! At Least my parents were on my side or I may have totally lost it! This season is gonna be mine to win!
[Static Buzzing]
Scarlet: I know my run time back on Pahkitew was… not the best so to speak, but I am a changed woman, therapy and stuff, etc etc.
[Static Buzzing]
_________________________________________________________________________________________
Izzy: so how long do you think it will take them to come down?
Eva: probably not long, hopefully not long.
Tyler: They’re probably about to jump as we speak! Right?! I mean they do remember the whole plane could crash any minute now right?!
Ezekiel: *gasp* okay! I think I got everything, and if I didn’t then it’s long gone
Eva: what was in the fake-a-chute?
Ezekiel: nothing even that useful, a Rubix cube, a cube with some string, a bag of wooden cubes- basically just a lot of different types of cubes.
Tyler: great… just… just great. Everything about this is great.
Meanwhile, back on the plane
Everyone was sorted into groups, ready to jump.
Well, almost everyone.
Owen: I can't do this! I can't do this! I can't-
Noah: Owen you got this! You're going to be fine.
Owen: But what if I'm not!
Courtney: Would you rather stay on the plane?! Look, remember the very first challenge from this show? This is basically the same thing! And you survived that didn't you?
Owen: “But-”
Justin: “Owen, don't worry, we're paired up, I'll keep you safe. trust me you're gonna be fiiIIIINNNE-”
Justin was leaning and holding on the edge of the planes doors when a piece of the metal frame broke off, causing Justin to fall out of the plane
Without a parachute.
Owen: “Justin! I'm coming!”
Owen jumps out, parachute equipped, trying to catch up to Justin in the open air until
Boom! He caught him!
Slowly Owen and Justin safely descended to the ground, as did all the other pairs and groups in the plane.
Now here they all were, in the water
Katie: Now what? Do we just swim to the island?
Tyler: I bet I can get there first!
Eva: Are you really wanting to bet on that?
Cody: Guys focus!
Bridgette: Maybe there's something in those fake parachutes we can use?
And thus begins the checking of the fake-a-chutes
Noah: “Sticks. Sticks and leaves.”
DJ: “Plushies?”
Sadie: “Mines just a bunch of scrap tech parts”
Courtney: blocks and… wait I think this is an ore!
Katie: doesn't really look like one.
Courtney: It's a foldable ore
Lindsay: Was there anything in yours Tyler and Zeke?
Tyler: Just a bunch of cubes! Like this rubix cube and this odd cube with string
Noah: Wait, let me see that.
Noah inspect the odd cube box with a string attached to it, after a moment he pulls the string and BOOM!
It's a self inflating raft
Sierra: This is perfect! Now we can ride this raft there!
Noah: there's no way all 25 of us can fit on it though, at most, half of us can get on.
Courtney: Okay, does anyone here think they can swim all the way there?
Sadie: sorry, I don't think I can swim that long
Noah: Same here
Eva: I know I can
Ezekiel: I'm pretty sure I can
Tyler: Bring it on!
Katie: I'm pretty decent at swimming so
Sierra: I'll volunteer!
Courtney: I guess I'll swim too, anyone else?
After some more volunteers and deniers eventually it’s decided that Courtney, Eva, Tyler, Ezekiel, Katie, Bridgette, Geoff, Heather, Sierra, Izzy, Duncan, Leshawna, Trent, Justin and Gwen would swim while the rest would ride in the boat with the strongest swimmers helping push the boat towards the island.
And oh boy, did they have some choice words with a certain host
HONK HONK
Chris: Looks like the gen 2 cast is just arriving!
A boat was parking on the dock, one identical to the ones the gen 2 cast were on when they first arrived back in season 4
Chris: From the Gen 2 Cast, Reintroducing first, Mike and Zoey
Zoey hair was still dyed her signature red color, but it was now in a long ponytail rather then 2 pig tails, she had a headband with a small blue flower in it, a earring that was shaped like a diamond, platform sandals, and red shorts with a matching red heart shirt.
Mike meanwhile was wearing a cyan jacket with green pockets and shoulder pads with a button up shirt underneath, he had a red scrunchie on one wrist and a gold watch on the other, a couple ear pieces, one in the usual spot that was the shape of a star while the other was near the top of the ear, finally he was wearing Vito’s necklace.
They both had wedding rings on their left hands.
Both walk together, the game? Are they worried? As long as their together there nothing they can't do.
Chris: Sam and Dakota
Sam was wearing a yellow t-shirt with a D-Pad logo on it, the logo of his gaming company, with matching Cyan hoodie, shorts, and shoes, and his hair was slightly longer nd a bit more noticeably curly.
Dakota looked a lot different from her last appearance, shes shorter now, going from a whopping 10 feet to about 7 feet, her hair was mostly back to blonde but there was some green, mostly at the bangs. One of her eyes are red like how they were when she became dakotazoid while the other changed back to her original green color, she was wearing jean shorts and pink crop top with sleeves that had a couple holes to cartier to her little shoulder spikes. Finally she had what could only be described as pink bandages covering her wrists as well as her ankles and feet.
They both also wore wedding rings on their left hands.
You're not really sure what to except of this couple, but you're excited to see what they can accomplish
Chris: Brick and Jo
Brick and Jo both look… almost identical to their TDROTI selves, especially Jo, heck thr only thing that looks different about jo is slightly longer hair.
Brick looks mostly the same just wearing a green sweater instead of his green shirt, and long jeans instead of shorts.
Brick and Jo were looking at each other, but not in a friendly way. Both had this fierce determination to win in their eyes.
Chris: Scott and Lightning
Scott had on a simple t shirt and baggy pants.
While Lightning, still with his White Hair, had on a varsity jacket, shirts, and sports sneakers. And if you look closely, his eyes are different shades of brown.
Scott and Lightning… didn't have any kind of reaction to each other, no talking, no glares, there wasn't any tension nor feelings of friendship or anything they just… silently walked up to everyone else who has arrived so far. Both knowing they will do almost anything to win.
Chris: B and Dawn
B's Outfit was simple. Purple hoodie with a green fanny pack, and a big cost, as well as green sneakers.
Dawn meanwhile had on a pastel shirt with flowy sleeves, a bracelet with ametrine breads and a long green skirt. The most interesting thing about her outfit was the big dark cyan cloak with a green jewel in the front.
While B and Dawn weren't talking to each other on arrival you can tell they have a special connection with each other. Platonic? Romantic? You aren't 100% sure.
Chris: And finally, Cameron, Staci, and Anne Maria
Cameron had on a purple zipper hoodie with purple sneakers to match, a red shirt with a butterfly on it, and dark grey pants.
Anne Maria had on a professional looking black jacket with black platform sandals to match, a rose red bag, a rose red crop top, and grey pants
Staci meanwhile, with the exception of dakota, probably has the most different appearance out of all of the gen 2 cast. on a purple shirt, a pink zipper hoodie with pink pants to match, a pink purse with different types of pins on it, her hair was longer and had a dyed dark pink streak, she had a ribbon headband with another red bow tied near the end of her hair, and little pink flats.
What an interesting trio, the Runner-Up, the First Boot, and the Quitter.
Out of all the gen 2 arrivals there the only one that seemed to be having some light chatter upon arrival, you have no idea what any of them were talking about, though you do see Staci glance back at the boat she just came from before breathing out a sigh of relief, ah that's right, gen 2's boat did kinda explode upon their arrival the first time around huh.
Chris: Welcome back Gen 2 Cast! It's been a while.
Confessional - insert title here
[Static Buzzing]
Max: Ah B, a fellow Inventor, if we end up on the same team that could be a potential alliance
[Static Buzzing]
Staci: Despite being first boot in my debut season I was perfectly fine with not competing again. But it's nice to be given a chance to show my growth, ya.
[Static Buzzing]
Jo: I don't care how strong some others in the other generations are, I will take down every last one of them! Especially Brick.
[Static Buzzing]
Dawn: I had Considered declining this invitation to come back, but something told me that I had to return to total drama once more.
[Static Buzzing]
Ella: Oh how I hope me and Dawn are on the same team, she was always one of my favorites.
[Static Buzzing]
Chris: “Welcome back to the show Gen 2 cast” Chris says to the fellow Gen-2-ers, who were now all standing with the other contestants
The 75 contestants were all looking at each other, some seeing some players they always wanted to meet while others are analyzing their competition.
Some were obvious, the couples stay together, friends gave nice looks to each other
Some former enemies and rivals were ready for a round 2, some wanting to show their still superior, some wanted to show they were gonna be the one on top form now one, some just wanted to even the score
Some were a bit more unexpected, some people who were friends once we no longer close, other who used to not stand each other connected after the fact.
Chris was looking out at the ocean, waiting for… something… everyone else had an idea of what he was waiting for, the gen 1 cast, perhaps their ride was falling a bit behind?
Instead of just standing in silence, weather it was to form friendships or allies, or even just reconnect with old friends, some people started to talk to the others
Julia: so, think there's anyone here we can ally with right off the bat?
MK: I'm not sure about right away, but I can see us working well with the ice dancers. They did cheat in their season and they played pretty dirty.
Julia: Definitely something to keep in mind… anyone else?
Ella looks around, trying to see who to speak to, and she spots Rodney off to the side who doesn't seem occupied.
Ella: Hello Rodney, it's lovely to see you again.
And in typical Rodney fashion, this little simple greeting it's enough to get his heart racing
Rodney: L-love, seeing, you, ha, again, uhm-
Confessional - first couple of the fic??
[Static Buzzing]
Rodney: Wow, Ella seems so… amazing, how did I not notice her back in Pahkitew? She just, wow.
[Static Buzzing]
Glancing around there seems to be some little convos happening. Max trying to talk to B about inventing. Priya, Caleb, and Millie finalizing plans. Somehow Staci and Beardo have started up a bit of their own conversation, probably some first boot solidarity. Even Damien started talking to Leonard and Tammy about LARPing.
Ripper: Axel, I know you wanna talk to Shawn, just go talk to him! Say hi!
Axel: I don't know… what if I just… freeze up from nerves?!
Ripper: All you gotta do is say “Hi Shawn, I'm Axel, I'm a big fan of your work.” And hey, if you freeze up I'll be right next to you to help you out.
Axel: Okay okay.. I got this! I'll just walk over and and say-
Heather: You're so dead McLean!
Everyone paused their conversations and turned to the new voice that just spoke.
And there she was, Queen bee herself, Heather. And she wasn’t alone, the rest of the Gen 1 cast were behind her, and they… were soaking wet?
Chris: And here they are! The original Gen 1 cast!
They were not only soaking wet, they also seemed tired, and upset. No, not upset, angry, though that may be an understatement.
Chris: From the Gen 1 Cast! Let me reintroduce-
Heather: Save it Chris, everyone knows who we are.
Heather says this as there's a little explosion in the distance, almost like a plane crashed or something.
Chris tries to do his introduction anyway but everyone quickly walks past him to join the others, and while Chris wants to be able to do the reintroduction, he knows when to fight his battles, and with the limited time left for episode 1's runtime, decides to just move on to the challenge explanation.
Chris: well… Now that you’re all here, let me explain your first challenge. This first challenge is purely a reward challenge, a pre-challenge if you will. Around the island is all of your luggage for the game, each one is labeled with your name, your goal is to find your own bag on the island and return to the dock, where you will be put on your preselected team. Which ever team has all their members come back first gets the first place reward, a nice comfy place to rest for the night.
Now, wasn’t that exciting? A comfy place to rest on this show was pretty rare, so starting off with a good rest is great!
Chris: The only rule for this challenge is, you can’t look inside your own bag till you get back and learn what team you’re on. Anything else goes, sabotage if you want, but keep in mind that the person you sabotage could be on your own team, so sabotage wisely.
Chris pause for a moment, then continues
Chris: Now, [Chris pulls out a gun- NOT TO SHOOT THE CONTESTANTS… not now atleast, but to fire into the sky to start the challenge] when i say go and fire this off, the challenge will start, go solo, team up, sabotage, whatever just be entertaining.
Everyone glances around, at their friends, their enemies, their possible allies and possible teammates. Some thinking of who to team up with to help find their luggage sooner, others thinking of ways to sabotage others, a few were thinking about the reward, and a couple noticed the matts still rolled up to the side, 4 matts, 4 different colors, 4 teams.
Chris: On your mark…
Chris raised the gun to the sky, everyone getting ready to run, or to form plans with others
Chris: get set…
And a few… were thinking of ways to take down McLean once and for all.
Chris: GO!
Chris says as a BANG goes off into the sky.
