Total Drama Island: Revamp - Episode 1: Not So Happy Campers - Part 1

A dapper host stood on a cruddy, murky coloured dock. Sweat was nowhere to be seen on this man's face, not on the cleft on his chin or anywhere. "Where's my cue?" He yelled loudly, quickly expectant a response as he rolled his eyes. "Is my shirt dusty?" He asked, quickly blowing on navy coloured shirt which was short, but not as short as his white undershirt, the sleeves peaked through. A grin was suddenly plastered on his face, "Welcome to the hottest new reality show on the block, I'm Chris McLean!"

Chris oozed charisma, as he energetically moved around the dock. He paced towards the edge, "You've tuned straight into onto Total. Drama. Island!" Each word was saturated with a short pause, as his voice grew in volume. The grin never left his face. "What's that, you may ask?" He chuckled sinisterly, "Well, of course it's your new favourite show. We've handpicked twenty two of our favourites out of the hundreds that applied. Now, they thought they were going to be on a lovely holiday resort show, sadly we've sent them here to this crummy summer camp!"

The dock's creeks became suspiciously louder all of a sudden. "They'll have to battle cramped cabins!" A shot of the cabins could be seen with the sound of the door being opened creating the effect that you were going to enter it, while Chris smiled into the camera checking his teeth quickly before the camera returned to him. "Fierce grizzly bears!" Another shot was thrown on screen quickly of a growling grizzly bear with its claws up, the camera man that got that scene was subsequently put in hospital, "And worst of all...each-other!" No shot popped up this time, but Chris did hover closer to the camera and give a sadistic look and another little chuckle.

"Here comes our first competitor now...introducing the oldest of the players this season...Blaineley, also known as Mildred." A young women in her 30s in primped red carpet attire stepped off the yacht onto the dock, with a glare sent straight to Chris. "What?" He asked, rhetorically. His eyes showing he knew exactly what had caused that action.

Blaineley clutched her dark, dyed blonde roots. "You were not meant to reveal that about me!" She slammed her heel into the dock, an act of aggression that paired well with her tone of immense anger. "You're just jealous because I was meant to get this job!" Now it was Blaineley's turn to smirk, as she intended to walk forward as she flicked her hair. Chris grinned to the camera and his grin continued when he stuck his right foot out and Blaineley tripped over it.

As Blaineley let out a screech of pain offscreen once slamming into the dock, Chris began to introduce the next contestant. "The sizzlingly hottest guy this side of the atlantic," Chris winked, "Other than me of course." Blaineley let out a clear gagging sound in response, "An honour roll student and the son of a diplomat, Alejandro." The camera panned over to a tall, handsome, muscular male. His physique was only revealed by small undershirt leaving his upper half of his chest exposed. His brown hair and smouldering green eyes had Blaineley clearly flushed as Alejandro stepped onto the dock.

"Que?" He looked at Chris and instinctively moved his hand away from Chris' welcoming handshake as he looked at his surroundings. "This dump?" He whispered, but Chris heard it loud and clear. "What is the meaning of this? Surely, this - this is not where the competition takes place?!" Clearly exasperated Alejandro turned around, but his yacht had already left. He raced to the edge of the dock, "Por favor, señor!" He yelled, but not to no avail.

"Alejandro, buddy..." Chris struggled to hold in his laughs, as Alejandro glared at him. "This is the where the competition is taking place, you signed a legally binding contract and your yacht has left." Alejandro growled, but stormed to the edge of the dock standing next to Blaineley, who was clearly transfixed by him.

"Wow, hubba hubba!" Blaineley panted as she fanned herself, "Is it getting hot in here or is it just our chemistry?" Alejandro rolled his eyes, "I'm Blaineley...and I'm sure I'll get to know you some more." Alejandro internally cringed, but outwardly turned to Blaineley and kissed her hand diligently.

"I am Alejandro and I do hope that a kind and pleasant lady such as yourself and me will get to know each-other on a game level." The emphasis on the word had caused Blaineley to switch her mood instantly, she sent a scoff Alejandro's way.

"If you don't want this," She gestured to herself in her form fitting red dress, "That's your loss, buster!" Offscreen, Chris' laughter was clearly evident. "Oh cram it, McClean!"

Chris managed to resist bursting out into fits of laughter as the next contestant surfaced quickly onto the dock and the fair skinned blonde haired female shot him a confused look as she clutched her surfboard slightly tighter. "Our surfer chick, Bridgette has arrived!" Bridgette shivered as realised her cyan jacket jacket which rested just below her belly button would not protect her from the cold. "And yes, you were bamboozled. This is where you're staying, Camp Wawanakwa!" Bridgette gasped.

"Are you serious?" She questioned, "I'm wearing shorts and sandals and when am I going to be able to use this!" She threw her hands up, trying to draw attention to her surfboard but her grip wasn't as iron tight as thought, she looked on in horror as surfboard went hurdling towards Blaineley, Alejandro quickly dived in and grabbed it before it collided with Blaineley and gave a warm, smile to Bridgette.

"Oh, wow." Chris said to the camera, grinning.

"Oh, wow..." Bridgette repeated but with a much more dazed tone as her hazel eyes connected with Alejandro's eyes. She quickly snapped out of it and rushed to grab her surfboard, "I'm so sorry!" Blaineley did not looked amused at Bridgette's worried apology. Bridgette grabbed her surfboard, but her hands grabbed on Alejandro's hands also.

"I do love someone who is hands on." He purred, as he let go of her surfboard. Bridgette stumbled back in a daze with her blush tinted cheeks, as Blaineley rolled her eyes.

"Get a room!" Blaineley grumbled, "Sister, just you wait." She directly told Bridgette, who looked confused as she took her place beside Alejandro. Alejandro quickly rolled his eyes but laughed, "It wasn't a joke." Blaineley countered quickly.

"Our next contestant is Beth, she's an acrobat for the ages and used to be in girl scouts. Introducing...Beth!" The camera panned onto a petite girl wearing donning bright clothing, pink trousers and green upper half. She grinned, "Hi Chris!" Spit escaped from her braces, as she adjusted her glasses. She giggled as she quickly waved to the camera, "Woah. It's so nerveraking being on TV, don't you agree?" She looked to Chris for a response.

"Uh, no." He said, eyes darting to the camera as she shoved Beth to the other side of the dock not even interested in what she had to say.

Beth stumbled, but turned around, her eyes glossing over Bridgette, Alejandro and Blaineley. "Hi guys!" She waved, amicably. Alejandro returned a warm smile which contrasted with Bridgette's wave and Blaineley's deeply judgemental stare.

"Oh, wow, really scraping the bottom of the barrel here, Chris." Blaineley's blunt remark led to both Beth and Bridgette to gasp.

"That is so rude!" Bridgette sounded very emotionally charged, as she crossed her arms and sternly huffed. "Honestly, I think Beth looks like a really nice girl."

"Doubt it." Blaineley continued.

"Wow, you really are a mean, bitter and twisted person, aren't you?" Beth accusingly pointed a finger at Blaineley, who feigned shock before rolling her eyes. Bridgette nodded in agreement.

"Beth, I'm Bridgette and I'm also nice, unlike some people." An unaffectionate stare was sent Blaineley's way.

"Hey, I can be nice to people!" Blaineley insisted.

Alejandro clapped his hands, having prepared a statement to say. "Ladies, ladies. You are all ravishingly beautiful in your own special ways. Let us not bicker in such a way that makes our character seem bad." Beth let out a long giggle and nodded, Bridgette's eyes shifted elsewhere as she looked down, blushing yet again.

"Our next contestant is...a high profile aspiring lawyer, leader of the debate club at her school and the youngest ever Student Council President in her school's history...it's the honour student, Courtney!" A mocha skinned female stepped onto the block, her wide brown eyes scanned over the place as she gladly shook Chris' hand. She clutched the bottom of her preppy grey shirt, "Is this where we're..." She paused - pinched herself - and then refused walking towards the others. "Staying?"

"Yep!" Chris' overexcited grin made Courtney quizzical, as she turned her head to look at the other contestants, surveying them up. Alejandro blew her a flirtatious kiss, Courtney turned her cheek away, hoping she wasn't blushing.

"So, you must be my competition. I look forward to working with all of you." She smiled warmly as she stood by an unnerved Blaineley who scowled at her. "Uh," Courtney looked confused and slightly offended, "Why are you looking at me like that?"

"I'm starting to think that's just her face." Bridgette quipped, prompting Courtney to chuckle.

"It's all the botox!" Interjected Chris from off screen as Blaineley's face transformed into an expression of pure horror.

Blaineley rushed over to the camera, making herself become the only thing not obscured. "I haven't had any botox!" She frantically proclaimed, wriggling her face as hard as she could. "See, it's all moveable!" Blaineley quickly took her position back in line, "Just had to make sure that those tabloid lies could be disproven. Why else would I join this tragic band of people?" She stuck her thumb towards the other competitions, who all looked equally offended.

"I don't think it's very wise to be making statements like that, especially in a competition." Courtney's advice fell on deaf ears, "Wait...are you Blaineley from Celebrity Manhunt?" Blaineley smirked, readying her notepad to give Courtney an autograph. "Your advice is so damaging!"

"WHAT?!" Blaineley shrieked.

Courtney nodded, "Those pathetic tricks? Telling girls to wear a pants size bigger than they are so they can ask if they've lost weight?" Blaineley went bright red and her eyes instantly darted to the floor. "I bet you are doing that right now!"

"Oh, the camera adds ten pounds!" Blaineley assured herself, "You wouldn't understand."

"I wouldn't want to." Courtney mused under her breath, Bridgette smiled lightly as this.

"Our next contestant is the self proclaimed ladies man," Alejandro irked his eyebrow at Chris' words, suddenly upright and intrigued. All of the girls looked extremely interested, "Cody!" The girls interested quickly faltered as they looked at Cody. A short teal eyed male with his long (slightly messy) hair almost obscuring his eyes strode across the dock, confidence was high even as he heard the girls giggling. He looked at Alejandro, who smirked at him, Cody was instantly a gape and sullenly sighed obnoxiously as he took his place next to Courtney.

"A real ladies man!" Courtney cackled, "Aww," a condescending pat onto Cody's head had him object and glare, but Courtney just turned to the other girls. "He reminds me of the little brother I never had." She cooed.

"I am a real ladies man!" Cody yelled out, clearly annoyed.

"You're not even a real man," Blaineley rolled her eyes. "So how can you be a real ladies man?"

"Again!" Beth cut in, glaring daggers at Blaineley. "Again with those rude and off the cuff comments! Just because you are a celebrity, it doesn't mean you get to be rude to everyone else because we WILL send you home!"

"She's a celebrity? From what decade?" Cody absentmindedly wandered aloud.

"GET. HIM. AWAY. FROM. ME." Blaineley grabbed Cody, who looked deeply worried as he managed to break free from her grip due to Courtney and Bridgette holding him back. Cody quickly leapt into Alejandro's arms, who had dropped him and dusted his hands off within seconds.

"Duncan is our next contestant." Duncan's punkish green mohawk instantly attracted gasps as he gripped his dufflebag tightly. "This is some sort of extra punishment?!" He hissed, walking past Chris (and making sure to kick him in the shin lightly). Chris cried out in pain, "I'm not laughing!" He stood, isolated from everyone else. They stared at him, the seconds lingered on. "What?" Duncan barked out, "You never seen a criminal before, preppy?" He leered at Courtney.

Courtney looked shocked, and looked around before pointing to herself, Duncan nodded and rolled his eyes. "I'm...I'm not preppy!" She stuttered, unsure of what else to say. "Why do I give that impression?" She strolled up to Duncan, demanding an answer.

"Oh, no reason. Just your uptight, bossy, domineering everything. Oh, and your screechy voice?" Courtney mouthed the word that offended her most - screechy - in pure disbelief as she tried to process Duncan's word. "It's okay sweet cheeks, some people would find that sexy." He winked at Courtney, she failed to hide her repulsed nature. "Ugh," Duncan rolled his eyes, "You preppy BEEPs are all the same!"

Everyone gasped.

Duncan looked unamused, "Is he allowed to say that?!" Courtney asked Chris, Chris shrugged. "Ugh, I can't believe he just called me that!" Courtney stormed back to the others, deeply annoyed.

"It's so disrespectful to treat a lady that way!" Cody spoke up, although he was ignored as Alejandro coughed loudly over what he was trying to say. "Ugh, Al...why would you do that?" Alejandro visibly cringed, and laughed at Cody before patting him on the back. Cody fell onto the floor, "He...he pushed me!" Alejandro helped him up, laughing this off also.

"I would never disrespect a man, or a lady this way." His eyes glossed over Cody as squeezed Cody's hand tightly before letting it go, Cody let out a hoarse gasp before he clutched his hand in pain. "Especially not such a beautiful and intelligent one," He added, Courtney smiled and nodded at the compliments.

"Thank you." She took one look at Alejandro, before sending a death stare at Duncan.

"Our next contender for cheesy tabloid fame and money they will probably blow in a week is...Eva!" A stocky, muscular female in navy gym clothes looked confused as she stepped onto the dock, clutching her navy bag holding dumbbells.

"Where were those facts about me I was promised?" She turned to Chris, instantly raising her fists. Chris looked frazzled and frantically tried to find a cue-card before settling on one.

"Oh, Eva! The pampered princess for the ages, the eye candy of the season...it's Eva!" Everyone looked immensely confused, Eva looked deeply angered as she pushed Chris straight off the dock, Duncan was the only one who laughed. She darted a smile at him, and stood by him.

"Ew! I'm all wet! Ugh, cut to an ad break!" He requested, looking down as his soiled clothes in pure anguish as he stood in the water. "We'll be right back on Total...Drama...Island!"

"WHAT?!" Eva yelled, "We're staying here? Is this some sort of anger management punishment?" Eva looked around, "Because it's not FUNNY!" She screeched, "I want out."

"No can do, you signed a legally binding contract." Duncan said, unapathetic. "At least if you're here, we can school the rest of these losers." Duncan whispered, "But I would say tone down the temper, the others are scared of anything, bunch of wusses."

Eva let out an almost knowing groan, "I bet." She gruffly responded.

Chris stood back on the dock with his newly tried clothes and his trademark grin slapped back over his oddly shaped face. "Next up is the buff brickhouse nature lover...DJ!" As a tall black male stepped onto the dock, Bridgette tried hard to conceal her squeal and grin. She rushed straight up to him, Alejandro's eye widened in shock.

"You like animals too?" She asked, not at all intimidated.

DJ smiled warmly down at the surfer, "Of course I do! Who wouldn't?" He shrugged.

"I have a feeling we're going to get along very well." Bridgette quickly led DJ to the edge of the dock, he stood beside Alejandro who quickly levelled him up.

"Hi, uh, DJ is it?" Alejandro cut into the lively conversation between the two animal lovers, "I'm Alejandro. I love animals, also. What's your favourite?"

DJ opened his mouth to answer but Bridgette excitedly cut in. "There's so many to choose from!"

"That was my exact answer." DJ told Alejandro, smirking.

"Where's my introduction?" Huffed the annoyed goth girl on the dock, Duncan wolf whispered instantly, she rolled her eyes. "Dream on. And this is not - !"

Chris let out a lengthy long groan, "We already know this! Everyone has already complained about the same thing, Gwen!"

Gwen rolled her eyes, "So what? I still don't want to be here with these people at this location. I didn't even sign up for this show, it was a dare!"

"Blah, blah, blah." Chris yawned over the sound of Gwen's yacht speeding away. "Aw," He feigned upset, "I guess you're stuck here."

"Loser." Gwen sighed, as she slowly walked to the others. Her eyes and posture switching when she looked at Courtney. Courtney looked shocked, "You're one of those girls." Gwen stated, Courtney looked around in shock.

"Wha - why does everyone keep saying that?!" She cried out in aggravation. "I wasn't judging you!"

"Oh, but you will..."

"Next up, party fanatic - !" Gwen let out a long groan, "Popular guy - !" Gwen continued groaning, "Geoff!" Gwen sighed, loudly. "Will you cut that out?!" Chris moaned at Gwen, who rolled her eyes. She watched as the dancing party boy hopped off the yacht excitedly fist bumping Chris and strolled towards everyone else.

"Nice chest." Bridgette commented in a slight daze, her eyes looking over it.

"Thanks brah!" Geoff gave a quick thumb up to Bridgette as he attempted to stand near Gwen, who slowly moved. Noticing this, a look worry fell over Geoff. "Uh, that's so not cool, man. I'm nice, I promise!"

"Sure you are."

"Wow, she's really harshing my mellow." Geoff looked glum, Courtney patted him on the back, knowingly.

"Next up is - ah!" Chris looked stunned and jumped slightly when he saw a tall, auburn haired, lanky male standing beside him. He, much like Bridgette, was also clutching something is his hand - but this was something different, a keyboard. "This is uh, Harold everyone."

Harold's breath was loud and clear, "Awesome camp! This is going to be so cool." Harold walked over to the others, he uttered a simple "Ooh." Courtney looked repulsed as Harold flashed her a warm grin.

"Don't try it, dork! If she doesn't want a real man, she won't want you!" Harold rolled his eyes over Duncan's remark and silently took his place, opting not to cause a scene.

A yacht sped up to the dock and two people excitedly hopped off, "This is...Sadie!" He gestured to the plumper one of the duo, her clothing a slightly lighter shade of pink but other than that shared no difference with her skinnier, tanner friend. Their hairstyle was as synchronous as their earsplitting squeal.

"OH MY GOD!" Sadie yelled. "Katie, I can't believe we're actually here!" Both clutched each-other's hand and jumped up down. They excitedly skipped to the edge of the dock, Alejandro flashed his teeth in a smirk directed at Sadie.

"Wow, he's so hot!" Katie yelled out, stepping towards Alejandro.

"Oh my god, he so totally is!" Sadie gushed, pushing Katie out of the way absentmindedly.

"Oh my god, did you just push me?!" Katie gasped, hand on heart.

"Uh, no." Sadie answered matter of factly as she glared while getting into Katie's face. "I think you just got it wrong."

"I can't believe you're lying to me!"

"I'm not!"

With that, Katie and Sadie stepped off in opposing directions.

"Oh my god," A tall, fair skinned Asian female stepped onto the dock, her sunglasses instantly discarded so she could reveal her thinly veiled look of pure disgust. "Do not tell me this is where we're staying?" She spoke with such vigour, Alejandro's eyes almost sparkled as he watched her stride against the dock.

"Hello, mi - !" Heather let out a lengthy groan, cutting off and ignoring Alejandro. She began tapping her foot impatiently against the dock. She turned to Chris, awaiting an answer to her question.

"Everyone, this is the Heather!" Chris gesticulated towards Heather who flipped her hair, as she eagerly looked around in confusion.

"Where's my competition?" She sneered, looking at everyone.

"Over here, babe!" Duncan cried out, waving his hand to get her attention.

Heather turned to him, her mouth was screwed shut. Her eyes drilled into Duncan's, Duncan raised his eyebrows suggestively in an attempt to get her expression to change to a happier one. Eventually, Heather finally broke the silence between them and said, "Sorry, I thought I had told you about my policy, I don't talk to losers!"

"Your loss!" Duncan growled, his anger rising after being turned down yet again.

"Drop dead," Heather said nonchalantly as the others let out a gasp. "Oh my god, it's called a joke." She rolled her eyes, "Don't be so melodramatic." She told the others, dismissing their gasps. "I don't think a criminal on this show is what anyone had in mind!" She sent a glare Chris' way.

Chris grinned in return. "Nope!" He laughed, "Isn't that what makes it fun?"

"The only thing that could make anything like this fun is me having such little competition to get my million." Heather grumbled under her breath, her eyes darting around as she realised that no one had (thankfully) heard her second dig to her competitors.

Suddenly, a chorus of wolf whistles from Geoff, Duncan and Cody could be heard as the blonde bombshell and pampered princess pulled up to the dock, a pink suitcase being lightly clasped around her fingers as she struggled to drag it onto the dock with her.

"Oh, pathetic!" Courtney was unpleased as Duncan, Cody and Geoff were quick to help Lindsay get suitcase onto the dock. Her baby blue eyes and a giggle suifficing as enough of a reward for them.

"Woah," Duncan's eyes went to her assets. "Look at those - owch! Cody had unintentionally elbowed Duncan in the hopes of getting closer to Lindsay, "Dweeb, you're going to wish you didn't - !"

Lindsay's light, airy giggle stopped Duncan from continuing. "You guys are like so, polite and funny." Lindsay grinned, as she strode to the others. "Uh, where's like the hot tub?"

Duncan grinned, as he rubbed his hands together. "Oh yeah, where is the hot-tub?" He elbowed Geoff who snickered with him, both eager to see Lindsay in a bathing suit.

"I think ogling over a women due to her body is just so disrespectful." Alejandro spoke, specifically looking at Duncan and Geoff as he moved to lead Lindsay from the other guys (and then began intensely staring into her eyes). All a mesmerised Lindsay could do is giggle in return.

"Oh, barf." Heather groaned.

"I know, typical." Blaineley agreed.

Alejandro looked confused at this mutual agreement of something unspoken but said nothing.

"I think we can all say Lindsay has made quite the impression." Chris told the other campers, before turning to the camera and winking at it over the sound of the next yacht speeding up to the dock. "But next up is...Justin!"

Justin stepped off the dock, his eyes enclosed as he outstretched his arms. After a few pitiful moments, he gasped and opened his eyes. "What? Why aren't I being hugged?" He glowered, before he looked at Alejandro. "I'm much hotter than him, right?"

Silence was his response.

Justin raced up to the camera, "My skin is perfect, right?" Now a hint of insecurity began dripping from his voice, "I'm hot!"

"More like a complete snoozefest." Heather quipped.

"I don't know..." Beth began to fall under his spell, before her eyes darted to Alejandro. "Hmm," She shrugged. "I guess..."

"You guess?!" Justin shrieked, "If I'm not hot...what am I?"

"Well," Chris cut in. "This is awkward...we did cast you solely for your looks." Justin looked more petrified at this.

"What?! You mean...I'm going to have to actually do something?" Justin gasped, his head bowed in shame. "I guess I'm up to it," He mused under his bated breath as he took his place beside Sadie.

"I think you're cute," Sadie complimented. "For Katie anyway," Sadie pointed, "I can get Alejandro!" Sadie giggled, Justin looked more upset at this. Sadie gasped, "Oh my, like gosh, I totally didn't mean to make you feel bad. You're still hot but like Alejandro is gorgeous..." Sadie almost began drooling as she visualised Alejandro's body, only succeeding in grossing Justin out.

"Next up...Izzy!"

Justin gasped at this. "It can't be, Izzy..." He bit his lip in anticipation, as Izzy's yacht came into view and the seaweed wearing crazy redhead he knew so well came into his line of vision. "Oh no!" He whimpered.

Izzy cackled, "I'm so excited to be here!" She grinned crazily at Chris. She skipped off the dock, but gasped exaggeratedly upon seeing Justin. "Oh, my God!" Izzy's eyes widened in shock.

Justin began sweating immensely.

"I think I left my chainsaw on the boat!" Everyone let out a concerned and worried gasp as Izzy raced toward the edge of the dock and attempted to leap off, but Chris quickly grabbed.

"Ugh. I need to move. This is the aliens stopping me!" Screeched Izzy, until she was dropped on the floor when Chris seized his grip on her. She glared at Chris, "You're working for them!" She pointed at Chris, squinting her eyes before laughing maniacally and walking towards the others.

"Hi, guys!" She waved at them.

Everyone had a mixture of expressions, mostly including fear or anxiousness.

"What?" She shrugged, "Did I say something wrong?"

"Next up, a bookworm for the ages, the anti social shortie...it's Noah!" Izzy raced up to Noah instantly, who dropped his suitcase in shock as Izzy began sniffing him.

"Uh, Chris?" Noah gestured to Izzy, "She can't be sane."

"She's not!" Chris laughed, "Beauty of the producers and casting agents. She was begging to be cast and we just couldn't say no!" Noah glared at Chris' statement as he walked to the others.

"Hmph, I see the circus is in town." He stated, looking at Gwen, who irked her eyebrow at him.

"Oh, you did not just say that." She hissed, stepping up to him. "Say it." She was right in his face, Noah smirked, his arrogance radiating.

"I. See. The. Circus. Is. In. Town." He repeated, with even more confident and vigour as before.

"Ugh, you don't deserve the effort." Gwen turned around, stepping back.

"Yay, Gwen!" Courtney cheered, everyone looked at her in confusion. She shrugged, "What? Violence is never the answer."

Alejandro smiled at Noah, "Hello worthy adversary."

"Oh great, one of these people. Shouldn't you be the Bachelor on that show and play your games there?" Noah asked, not missing a beat as Alejandro's facade temporarily cracked.

"Haha." He croaked out, clearly caught out.

"WIPEOUT INCOM-I-I-NG!" Screamed a jock wearing red gym clothes, he cried out as he slammed into the assortment of luggage, as everyone looked at the jock flying overheard in amazement. "I'm okay!" He reassured everyone quickly before standing up.

"Wicked!" Chris complimented, "And that over there is Tyler, everyone."

Lindsay gasped, "Wow!" She rushed over to him, "That took so much guts!"

"Not that much intelligence, though." Courtney noted, Heather laughed at this lightly but when Courtney turned to smile at Heather she returned back to her scowl quickly.

"Ugh, like either of them are intelligent." Blaineley cut in, earning another glare from Beth. She stuck her tongue out at Beth, who remained festering but silent.

"I mean to be good at sports, you do need guts and I am one of the best." He gloated as he flexed his biceps, before stepping forward and subsequently tripping over, Lindsay laughed at this.

"You're so funny, uh..." Lindsay tapped her head, trying to recount his name but she struggled. "You're so funny!" She repeated, as she helped him up, completely blanking out on his name.

"It's Tyler." He reminded her warmly, as she clutched his arm.

"I'll remember that!" Lindsay promised, but even she was unsure as to whether she would.

"Our final two campers have arrived on the dock, moments after each-other. Introducing...Trent!" He gestured to the taller and skinnier one of the two, Sadie and Katie gasped at his good looks. His jet black hair and green eyes had them almost ready to faint and "Owen!" Owen was certainly very plump, but extremely charismatic, he grinned and waved to the others.

"Hi everyone!" Owen rushed towards everyone quickly, waving at them.

"Wow, someone's fat." Blaineley commented as she looked at Owen, rather matter of factly.

"Oh my god," Courtney gasped. "That is just a whole new level of rude."

"What?" Blaineley shrugged, "He's like five of Trent!"

Owen looked down and looked instantly glum as the majority of the cast glared at Blaineley, Trent patted Owen on the back comfortingly. "It's okay, big guy. I still like you." The two smiled warmly at each-other, prompting a chorus of cooing.

Chris looked at the camera, flashing a huge grin its way. "Now that everyone is here, we can do a lovely group photo of course! To the edge of the dock!" He commanded.

Now, everyone stood at the edge of the dock. Katie and Sadie were clamouring around Alejandro, as a dejected Justin stood beside them. Trent had hopped on Owen's back and the front row was made of the shorter campers of Izzy, Beth, Cody, Courtney and Bridgette all kneeling and waving. Everyone had found some sort of position, Geoff was in the middle with Noah, DJ, Harold, Heather and Blaineley (who were bickering immensely) and Lindsay and Tyler who were stood next to each-other, glancing into each-other's eyes, some would say love struck and Gwen, Duncan and Eva sat slightly isolated from everyone else, looking mostly annoyed.

Chris stood in front of them, cracking up to himself. "Everybody say...cheese!"

A chorus of half enthusiastic and half pessimistic people could be heard, "Cheese!" All quickly held their positions, Gwen made a slight effort to crack a smile. After a couple of seconds passed, Blaineley groaned, prompting everyone to stop holding their positions, "Will you hurry this up? Ugh, Chris, I know you're an inexperienced host but - !"

In the midst of Blaineley's glare, Chris snapped the photo. Everyone gasped. He smirked, "You can thank the one and only, Blaineley for that."

"Wha - how do I look? This show has no hair and make up crew, if I look bad I'm calling my agent!" Blaineley threatened.

"Oh, no..." Noah sarcastically began, "Your agent?" He gasped, "Wow! We're so scared!"

Chris laughed at this, "My words exactly!"

Blaineley tapped her heel on the dock, consciously making it louder and with more force each-time as she growled and tried to cool her anger down. Suddenly, the dock gave way and everyone fell into the water. Chris was eager to snap pictures of this while he was laughing hysterically.

"Oh man, this wasn't even meant to happen! This is too good! Dry off and meet me in the campfire in ten! I'll sound the intercom for when you should start making your way."

While some opted to follow Chris straight to the campfire and hope their clothes would dry naturally, others stayed behind. Gwen shivered and glared at Blaineley who was almost completely dry.

"How are you even completely dry?! It was your fault!" Gwen was deeply angered, and this got the attention of the others who had stayed behind. Those being Trent, Bridgette, Eva, Lindsay and Courtney.

"She's totally right." Courtney agreed, "Like those heels of yours and tapping on the dock along with your damaging advice and consistent rudeness? You'll never have a real career if you don't get your act together, no matter how spoonfed you are."

Blaineley gasped incredulously, "SPOONFED?! I AM BLAINELEY - !"

"SHUT UP BEFORE I WRING MY HANDS AROUND YOUR SCRAWNY LITTLE NECK!" Bellowed Eva suddenly, as she cut in. Blaineley quickly silenced and sheepishly grinned, Eva noticed Bridgette's scared look at her. "What? It got her to shut her mouth, finally." Eva raised a fist at Blaineley, "And you'd better keep it that way!" She then stormed off, with Gwen following her.

"Wow," Courtney was visibly shaken. "That Eva girl is..." She paused, trying to think of a word to describe her after what had just transcribed.

"Something." Bridgette concluded, shivering. "Like, there was no reason to get that to that level of extreme anger. As a pacifist, violence is never the answer." Courtney shook her head at that.

"I respectfully disagree, Bridgette. In law, there's something called self defence that sometimes really does have to call for violence. It's not nice to do, but sometimes it has to be done."

Bridgette rolled her eyes and quickly crossed her arms, "But not on a reality show." Courtney nodded at that and the two walked away, forgetting about Lindsay.

"Hey guys! Wait up!" Lindsay raced after them quickly.

Heather and Alejandro were the only two who decided to follow Chris to the campfire, they finally reached it after a long, long walk. "Oh my gosh, finally! My legs were about to give about and these heels are something called expensive!" She quickly took her heels off and sat on one of the logs, Alejandro followed her. She glanced to see him beside her, "I don't think I need someone stalking me."

Alejandro smirked, "I'm not stalking you, my sweet. But maybe your attitude needs some tuning, you didn't even acknowledge me."

"Oh, cut it out. I know these shows and I know what it takes to win and I've seen and dated plenty of people like you!" Heather pointed at Alejandro, her ring finger firmly on his chest. Alejandro closed the gap between them as clasped Heather's hand and he let Heather feel his chest.

"Enjoy it?" Heather removed her hand instantly and let out a groan, "And you've dated a lot of people like me?" He scoffed, "I doubt that." Heather rolled her eyes.

"You are so conceited, annoying and..." Heather stopped when she saw Alejandro smiling at her.

"Sexy?" He concluded for her, she cringed at this but was also clearly blushing.

"Just stay away from me, you got it?!" Alejandro nodded, noting that despite her tone which said she meant business, Heather was still blushing and her face was clearly flushed.

Justin and Noah were trailing behind the others who were close to the campfire, Justin quickly stepped towards Noah ominously. "Do you think I'm..." He gulped, "Ugly?" He whispered, squeaking as said the word.

Noah rolled his eyes, "Insecure like the rest of us for once?" He was uncaring, "Good." Justin gasped at this, deeply upset. "But I assume you don't really like Alejandro?" Noah asked.

"Ugh, of course not!"

Noah smirked at Justin's quick reply. "I think this'll be the start of something very good..."

As everyone finally gathered at the campfire, Chris readied himself as the campers looked to him. "These people here will be your enemies," Heather glared at Alejandro and huffed, "Your friends..." Bridgette and Courtney smiled at each-other, "And maybe even more." Chris glanced at a lovestruck Lindsay and Tyler and he rolled his eyes, "Now, the teams have already been assigned. If I call your name, please stand over to my left."

Everyone looked expectant and nervous.

"I wonder what team I'll be on," Lindsay asked DJ, who was sat aside her.

"I just hope everyone is nice..." He replied back.

"Alejandro," Alejandro stood up, walking towards Chris. "Beth," Beth squealed and race towards Alejandro. "Blaineley," Alejandro's face dropped at this and he turned away to conceal this as Blaineley walked towards him and Beth. "Cody, DJ, Gwen, Izzy, Justin, Lindsay, Noah and Tyler." Cody looked shocked at being called but raced towards the others, Lindsay and DJ smiled at each-other as they found themselves on the same team and Tyler trailed behind the two (but in front of Gwen, Izzy, Noah and Justin).

"Why does Izzy keep staring at you?" Noah asked Justin, noting Izzy's wandering eyes.

"Me?" He feigned shock, "She's staring at you. I think she's into you." Noah warily glanced at Izzy, who waved at him while moving her hair from side to side, Noah and Justin then exchanged worried looks.

"You guys are the Killer Bass!" Chris revealed to a mix of confused faces and some cheers.

"Whoo!" Lindsay screamed happily, "What's a bass?" She asked Tyler, who shrugged.

"It's a fish." DJ answered.

"Wow, I love eating fish!" Lindsay's excitedness about this had DJ's face instantly drop, Alejandro laughed at this (along with Lindsay's obliviousness to her upsetting DJ).

"Beauty as well as brains," Alejandro's comment laced with sarcasm went over Lindsay's head as she got lost in his eyes, temporarily. Tyler groaned at this to attract attention.

"This is so tragic." Blaineley yawned, Gwen nodded in agreement as Noah internally smirked.

"The rest of you," Chris continued, "Bridgette, Courtney, Duncan, Eva, Geoff, Harold, Heather, Katie, Owen, Sadie and Trent." The group reluctantly stood up and formed somewhat of a group together, "You guys are the Screaming Gophers!"

Lindsay cheered again.

"We're not even on your team!" Courtney scolded.

"Idiot." Gwen chorused.

Lindsay's lip began quivering. "I think Lindsay's smart!" Tyler objected, Lindsay smiled.

"I also think Lindsay is incredibly intelligent." Alejandro stated, as Lindsay smiled at him. But this time, she was actually blushing.

"If you ever have any actual good opinions about your competitors, you may air them in what I like to call the outhouse confessional. The viewers will see al of your dirty laundry and in there everything will be kept secret. It will be something between just you and the viewers. You will also vote in the confessionals if your team needs to send someone home. When will you need to do that, you ask? When you lose a challenge. If you lose a challenge, you will be forced to send home one of your own. And that person can never, never ever, ever return. Gophers, your cabins are on the right, Bass the left."

"Are the cabins all one gendered?" Asked Courtney, "I don't want males in my cabin annoying me constantly."

"Hey!" Duncan seemed offended, especially because Courtney was starting at him. "I would never do that!" He sounded sincere, but then Courtney groaned once he winked after it.

"I agree with Miss Girl Power over here, some people struggle to take hints." Heather's eyes went straight to Alejandro.

"There are four cabins. You are separated by team and gender, got that?" Chris asked, "Oh wait, I don't care if you don't!" At this, everyone groaned. "You're required in the mess hall soon, but for now feel free to explore your cabins!" This prompted everyone to scatter off in separate directions.

Heather stormed straight into the girls cabin, "This is my bed!" She gestured to the nearest bottom bunk, Courtney and Bridgette followed in.

"Aw, I wanted that bed!" Courtney groaned, "It's nearest to the door."

"You snooze, you lose!" Heather taunted, haughtily. "As the leader of this team, I think it's fair I assign the beds, right?" Heather chuckled. Bridgette and Courtney glared at her, "Oh. What's that?" She listened, "I hear no objections!"

"I want the top bunk!" Eva raced into the cabin and instantaneously placed her dumbells onto the top bunk, Heather screamed and chastised Eva. Bridgette and Courtney giggled as they took the other bunk, Bridgette taking the top and Courtney on the bottom.

Katie and Sadie squealed as they walked in, "We're on the same team!" Sadie cried out, hugging Katie.

"I know! This is so great!" Katie was equally excited and the two jumped up and down.

"Okay! Stop that!" Heather barked at them, they frowned as they stopped jumping. "We need to have a good strategy to win challenges and crush the other team, don't you think, Courtney?"

Courtney looked startled, "Oh, uh wow. Yeah, I do think so."

"What do you suggest?" Heather pressed Courtney for answer, while giving her a slightly sinister grin. Courtney began considering Heather's question, "I mean if you don't know then..." Heather sheepishly grinned, "I can always suggest something."

"No!" Courtney instantly objected, before composing herself. "I mean..."

"She means you're so rude and mean." Sadie continued.

"Ugh, totally." Katie chorused in agreement.

"What?!" Courtney cried out, "That's not what I meant." She clarified, "I meant that Heather is actually correct. We need to cooperative, work and together and always do what is asked of us to the best of our abilities. Got that, girls?"

"Whoo! Girl power!" Heather fakely cried out, pretending to be happy as the other chorused this. Courtney raised her eyebrow at Heather, prompting Heather to smile even wider.

Confessionals

Heather sat in the confessional, crossing her arms as she leant back onto the toilet. "That Courtney girl really thinks she is something?" Heather laughed at that, "I'll let her suggest a couple of things and then it when it goes horrifically wrong, she will go home straight away." Heather theorised, before nodding. "Oh yeah, she's too smart for her own good and she's already getting buddy buddy with Bridgette, I don't like it."

STATIC.

Courtney walked into the confessional and sat down, "Uh, so do I just say anything?" She asked, "Ew. This is so...unhygenic." She looked at the toilet and the confessionals clearly tattered walls, "Is this second hand?" She asked in disgust.

STATIC.

"I don't want to share a bunk with her!" Beth sulked, as she pointed at Blaineley. "She is so rude."

"I agree, she totally is." Lindsay commented, while Blaineley gave her a death stare. "Wow, what's wrong with your face?" Lindsay asked, confused.

Blaineley rolled her eyes at Lindsay and continued to speak as Beth began to walk over to Lindsay. "I am a kind individual! You guys are all just jealous nobodies!" Blaineley rationalised.

Gwen walked past Blaineley and placed her stuff on the bottom bunk, Blaineley decided to follow and sleep on the top bunk, "You're my best option."

"Gee, thanks." Gwen replied monotonically.

"Oh wow!" Izzy dropped her stuff at the entrance and flipped, landing onto the floor with a crash. "Wow, is this spot taken?"

Gwen glanced down. "Wow, she's sleeping like a dog." Gwen noted.

"You mean like a Heather?" Blaineley quipped, Gwen smiled at this.

"What?" Lindsay asked, "I don't get it. A..." She gasped, "Oh my gosh, that is so rude," She then nodded, "But kind of true."

Confessionals

Blaineley sat in the confessional unamused, "This show is low budget trash," She grumbled, "I cannot believe my agent said this would be a good idea. Everyone here doesn't even know what it's like to be famous!" She yelled, clearly exasperated. "I mean they are...nobodies!" She laughed out of annoyance, "How could anyone put me and them in the same boat?! Oh and don't get me started on those idiots that call themselves my teammates."

STATIC.

Beth was next in the confessional, "Blaineley is the worst!" She cried out, raising her hands above her head. "But other than that, everyone else seems nice." She shrugged, smiling warmly, before gasping, "Do I have anything in my teeth?" She asked the camera man and he shook the camera side to side, signalling a no. Beth sighed in relief. "Hi everyone from back home!" Beth added quickly.

STATIC.

Alejandro stood in the center of the cramped cabin, "Men. I trust we will all help each-other and that we want to win this game, don't you agree?" He asked, they all cheered excitedly.

"Yeah!" Tyler agreed, clearly very spontaneous. "Whoo!" He jumped up, but then fell back down. "Ow..." He groaned in pain, Alejandro looked down at him, annoyance in his eyes.

"Something wrong, Al?" Noah asked, Alejandro flinched. "Did you just flinch...?" He asked, pausing. "Al?" Alejandro flinched again, "What's wrong with that?" Alejandro's glared at Noah with such intensity that Noah silenced himself.

"I must leave you be for a second gentlemen, I think I'm going to the mess hall." He held his facade until he turned around, a clear glare on his face as he stormed out.

"Wonder what that was about." Noah looked confused, "What do you think?" He asked Justin, who shrugged.

"Maybe he's just enjoying the vibes, man." Geoff's explanation was not something that Noah had any intention of believing. "And you know what," Geoff said, pulling Noah back from rushing after Alejandro. "I think you should too, bro. Watch me burp the alphabet and then tell me you're not happy to be here!" Geoff followed this by a goofy laugh, as Noah looked anxious.

Confessionals

Alejandro stormed into the confessional, slamming the door behind him. He paced slightly, "How dare he?! How dare he call me THAT?!" He looked to the camera, "Noah is going down, you hear me! That name is something that is the bane of my existence." Alejandro groaned, hands going straight to his head as he gripped his hair. "I just...need to keep my cool, I am Alejandro. Alejandro keeps his cool." He sighed, enclosing his eyes and gave himself a few vital moments to calm down.

STATIC.

Noah sat in the confessional, his eyes wide as he continued to think. After a few seconds, he spoke. "Alejandro's reaction to me calling him 'Al' was very telling. He's not stupid and neither am I. I see through him, maybe I shouldn't have said that so early but I have." Noah shrugged, "Now, where do I go from here? That is a good question..."

STATIC.

AN: This was almost over 8K words. This was one of the longest chapters I have ever written, at times it was tedious but I think it was relatively easier than I was expecting. If you read all of that, please don't hesitate to review. I have a lot to explain here. First things first, why are Alejandro and Blaineley here and not LeShawna and Ezekiel? That's because this is based off a Brantsteele, all of the eliminations and teams are and that's where the Brantsteele's influence ends.

So, there a few specific things I have referenced here from the original. Cody not knowing who Blaineley is inspired by when it happened in TDWT, Noah-Justin are surprisingly close despite Noah being the "anti-Justin". The canon couples of Duncney, Tynsday, Gidgette and Aleheather and referenced but that doesn't mean they'll happen. Heather is a lot ruder to Alejandro because she hasn't gone through any sort of development yet, Beth has more of a "bite" in this version, having seen and been bullied by a couple of Heather's and Blaineley's.

Cody and Tyler have similar introductions in the canon version as well as here. Courtney's references Geoff's song in TDWT, "Her Real Name isn't Blaineley" and Blaineley states a fact from Chinese Fake Out. I'm not going to name all of them but there's a quite a lot. In this version the challenges will be the same but with the addition of Blaineley and Alejandro and completely new teams, how will the elimination order be impacted?

Hint: Quite a lot.

Please read and review if you enjoyed it, because this will motivate me to continue. I'm hoping for a good 10-20 reviews for this chapter. I'll continue regardless of how many I get it, but it'll be easier to continue reading comments and seeing that people are actually reading this and enjoying it, that's always the best part really. Thanks for reading up to this point and I will answer all reviews and questions at the beginning of next chapter. I love interacting with readers!
