Chapter 28 - Chapter 28: Haute Camp-Ture

"Last time, on Total Drama Island…" Chris began the recap as he exited the mess hall of the camp. "Our campers were stripped of any kind of form of personal space as we handcuffed them together. Gwen was exposed to the cruelest torcher of human kind, helping Owen with bathroom duty. Dawn and Duncan formed a surprising friendship as Dawn managed to soften up Mr. Tough Guy, while Dawn showed she could be tough by nailing me in the head! Ugh, still hurts too. Lastly, Lincoln and Heather were in complete misery as they were cuffed together. Ya know it's love stories like this that really make this host shed a tear. However, during the last challenge Lincoln told off Heather hard, and to put the final nail on the coffin, anyone was game to be voted off with all eyes on Heather. But surprisingly, it was Lincoln's sweetheart Dawn who was voted off with no one having an explanation for it. However, further look at the footage shows Heather tampering with the votes, saving her own behind and proving to be the snake in Lincoln and Dawn's Garden of Eden. Honestly if you told me that girl was related to the devil, I'd believe you."

Chris was then seen walking across the camp towards the dock, Heather being seen in the backround running out of the cabin and throwing up. "Now, throughout the show you've been watching Gwen, Heather, Duncan, Lincoln, and Owen make their way to the final five. It's been a long seven weeks. So, we decided to give our weary finalists the day off so we could contemplate how far they've gotten and enjoy all the campgrounds have to offer. But what happens to the campers after they walk the Dock of Shame, board the Boat of Losers and leave the camp?"

 

 

 

Chris then stepped onto the dock of shame as he kept talking. "Where are these rejects living? How are they spending their time? And who do they think deserves to win the hundred grand? The losers are about to let it all hang out!"

CONFESSIONAL – CHRIS

"And you won't wanna miss a word!" Chris stated as he pointed his fingers at the camera.

We then see as Chris hops onto a jet ski. "Coming up on Total. Drama. Island!" Chris then started heading off to the location we would be seeing today.

Now, everyone knows Camp Wananakwa is a complete and total dump. If it was a real summer camp meant for a fun summer, it would be shut down immediately. Add in the cursed and dangerous neighboring Boney Island, you'd think everything close to that camp was also either total crap, or totally deadly and dangerous. But this is where you'd be wrong as we see Chris pull up on his jet ski to another dock. This dock was connected to what looked like a five-star resort.

The air was fresh and didn't smell like bear poop, there wasn't any black flies or mosquitoes around spreading diseases, and probably the most important detail, the food was actually good and was able to be kept down!

It was a paradise!

"Welcome to Playa des Losers!" Chris announced as he and the camera crew entered into the resort and once inside we saw…all the campers who have been voted off the island. We saw Katie and Sadie, Leshawna, and Noah hanging out at a pool bar, Beth was enjoying a seaweed mud wrap, Eva was lifting weights, Justin was jumping off a diving board, and the rest of the 19 eliminated campers were simply hanging out worry free. "The all-inclusive luxury resort where our sent after being brutally voted out of the game to lick their wounds and accept their fate as reality show has-beens. When we are down to the two final competitors, these losers will make their way back to the island to watch the dramatic showdown live!"

Currently at the pool bar, the three girls sitting there were admiring Justin as he jumped into the main pool by the high dive. "So dreamy…" Katie admired with sparkles in her eyes.

 

 

 

"Girls, you could grill meat on those abs." Leshawna commented, her eyes locked on Justin's abs.

 

 

 

"He is so cute!" Sadie gushed as she leaned back…only she was in a barstool so this led to her falling into the water. "Ah!" The other two girls and Noah, who was reading a book, covered their faces to avoid the chlorinated water getting in their eyes, but this didn't stop it from getting all over Noah's shirt.

"Get my shirt wet, why don't you?" Noah said to Sadie in an annoyed tone as he checked his book to make sure that didn't get wet. Why he was in the same place as the best friend clones and the sista with the most, he will never understand.

Meanwhile Leshawna rolled her eyes, already getting sick of Noah's sarcastic tendencies after reuniting with him. "Dude, you need to take a pill." Leshawna said with her usual tone and mannerism's. "It's just a bit of water, ya ain't gonna melt."

As Noah sent a light glare to Leshawna, Sadie simply giggled. "Sorry, Noah! Whoo!" After getting a feel for the water, Sadie allowed herself to simply float in place. "You guys should come in, it's so nice!" Sadie simply closed her eyes and relaxed…until she felt a sharp pain on her butt. "Ow! Something bit me!"

Katie gasped as Sadie looked into the water for the thing that bit her. "Was it a shark?" Sadie's best friend asked as she looked through the water as well.

"Sharks don't swim in chlorinated water, brainiac." Noah told the skinny girl in his usual sarcastic tone.

"He's right." Leshawna confirmed as she pointed her thumb towards where Beth was. "Sides, the sharks are with Beth getting the hand and foot." Sure enough, when everyone looked, they all saw two sharks getting the same seaweed mud wrap treatment as Beth.

"Well if it wasn't a shark then what was it?" Sadie asked as she started to headed back over to her chair to get out of the water before she got bit again.

After a few moments, everyone saw bubbles coming up from the water and eventually emerging from it was the psycho hose beast herself, Izzy. "Hehehe, sorry about that." The crazy girl apologized as Sadie got back on her seat, not sure if she should be relieved or even more frightened that it was Izzy and not a shark. "I just had the urge to bite something. Have you ever felt that? Like you just have to sink your teeth into something? Maybe that's how sharks feel, huh?"

The sharks over at the spa simply shrugged.

"Okay bye!" And with that, Izzy emerged into the water again, leaving the four others confused.

"As you can see, our campers have made themselves comfortable here at our luxury resort." Chris narrated for the audience as the camera panned over to the hot tub where Bridgette and Geoff could be seen cuddling together in. "Looks like Geoff and Bridgette have been enjoying their time together here."

"Dude!" Geoff cheered after removing his lips from Bridgette. "This resort is off the charts!"

Meanwhile, over by some lawn chairs sat Trent and DJ with Trent having a plate of delicious food on his lap and DJ having Bunny. "Can you believe this place is right around the corner from that crappy campground?" Trent chuckled as he enjoyed every second of being at the resort.

"Now this is what I'm talking about. I could hang here for a while." DJ sighed happily as he leaned back in his chair, but soon frowned a bit and pointed to another area of the resort. "Wish I could say the same for all of us though." The camera moved over to where DJ was pointing and, in a lawn chair shaded by a palm tree, laid none other than Dawn. The aura reader was laying in the opposite direction of the camera with her hair a mess and spreading out in all directions. Though her face was unseen, everyone could tell she was sporting a depressed look. "She hasn't smiled since she got here, really worried about her."

 

 

 

"Yeah me too man," Trent nodded in a sympathetic tone, also worried about Dawn as well. Though he wasn't as close to Dawn as others both due to being on opposite teams and being eliminated before the teams merged, he still felt bad for the girl as he knew what it was like to be separated from their romantic partner/interest. "All we gotta do is hope for the best is all. Can only imagine how Lincoln's taking it back on the island."

Over by the grill, we see the Code Miester himself Cody walking over to the grill. Only Cody appeared to be extremely…pink. "After I got my body cast off and the stitches removed, I started to realize, this place is pretty sweet!" Cody commented as he tossed a couple of stakes from the grill onto his plate.

"Yo, Cody! Need some sunscreen?" Trent called out, him and everyone else noticing Cody's pretty intense sunburn. He was like a bright red traffic light. "You're looking a bit pink, dude!"

"No thanks! I'm trying to get a tan!" Cody told the guitarist as he gave the camera a sly look. "It attracts the ladies~!"

Over at the pool, we see Tyler and Lindsay, the latter sitting on the formers lap, at the rim of the pool. "I love being a loser! This is so much more my style." Lindsay commented as Tyler simply smiled at his girlfriend. Once Lindsay made it to the resort, she and Tyler were finally reunited and without the competition or Heather interfering in anyway they were free to get to know each other and date. "If I'd known how nice this place was, I would've gotten my butt kicked off in the first episode. Plus, now Tyler and I can hang out." At that statement, her and Tyler shared a quick kiss…before Lindsay gained a confused look and started to look around the area. "Which one's Tyler?"

Tyler looked into the camera with a deadpanned look. "We still need to work on that…" The jock said in a blank tone.

Back at the hot tub, there was another occupant there along with Geoff and Bridgette. It was everyone's favorite home-schooled farm boy, Ezekial. "Yo, yo dawg! Check it out!" He said in a way that he though made him sound cool, he also wore a pair of sunglasses and a gold chain with a golden Z on it. "Being famous has totally changed my life. I'm just kicking it, yo. Got me some fly bling, too. You like?"

Before anyone could say anything about the Zeke, a loud coughing noise got everyone's attention as they looked to see Izzy emerge from the water of the pool bar again with something in her teeth. "Look! Someone's bikini bottom!" Taking it into her hand, she showed off the bikini bottom she found while diving. A bottom that was the same color as her swim cap…and was her exact size…

The girls and Noah looked at each other awkwardly before Katie eventually spoke up. "Uuuuh…I think that's yours, Izzy."

Izzy blinked a few times, looked at the bottom in her hands, then looked down into the water at her own bottom…and saw it uncovered. "Oh crap, it is!" Izzy then dived down into the water to put her bottom back on…her exposed butt briefly being seen and censored on camera.

Going back to another area with lawn chairs, we see the resident CIT Courtney relaxing in the sun with a coconut drink and sunglasses. "Aaaaaah…" The normally competitive and serious girl actually relaxed and let the sun take all of her worries away. "As much as I would rather still be in the competition, I would be lying if I said this place wasn't super nice."

"It did take her awhile to adjust to everything though," Geoff spoke up from the hot tub with Bridgette nodding as Courtney blushed in embarrassment and tried to hide her face behind her coconut beverage. "The first few days she was here she was completely restless and wouldn't chill out, haha! Like the girl never had a day off in her life."

 

 

 

"I told you I'm new to the whole…resting and relaxing thing." Courtney explained sheepishly before looking back to the camera and smiling. "But after awhile I was able to just accept my lost and just relax here while I can. Plus I've been taking hula dance lessons on the side and it's actually kinda fun!"

"And while some campers are relaxing and taking in the sights of this place, others however…" Chris narrated as the camera panned over to Harold who was standing next to the laddeer of the high dive glaring at the swimming form of Justin in the pool while taking brief glances at Leshawna, who was staring at Justin in a different way. "Others seem to have things keeping them from enjoying their life as a loser."

"I just don't get it!" Harold stomped his foot on the ground as he watched his love interest ogle over the swimming super model. "I thought after our moment on the dock me and Leshawna had something special. But when she got here and I tried to work my mad skills on her, she said we were moving too fast and should slow things down. I was a little bummed out but I could take it, I just had to work my way up to that luchous Goddess. But every second she has she's starring at Justin! Gosh! What makes him so great? Just because he has perfectly tanned skin, shining blue eyes, and chiseled chin, and a perfect smile. Did he spend three summers at Magic Steve's Magic Camp? Or gotten every single badge in muskrat boys? Or beat boxes like a pro? No, he's just a pretty face!"

"Pretty sure you answered your own question." Eva harshly commented as she walked by Harold while lifting weights.

Harold crossed his arms and sent a quick glare to Eva before going back to glaring at Justin. "Just you watch!" Harold said determinedly. "I just need to do something to wow Leshawna and I know she'll be ogling at me instead!"

"Uuum, should we do something to stop him?" DJ asked as he scratched the back of his head as he and Trent overheard everything Harold had just said.

"Hmmmm…nah!" Trent shook his head, a small smirk on his face. "Kinda wanna see where this goes."

Cutting to the pool, we see Lindsay reclining on the edge of the pool with a single foot dipped in the water. "I learned a lot during my experience on the island with Heather." Lindsay soon frowned as she began talking about the queen bee. Ever since she was eliminated, the sheer thought of Heather brought out the worst in Lindsay…especially when it came to her mouth. "If you're going to have a best friend that's going to make all your decisions for you, you should make sure they're not a total jerk!"

"So I guess in hindsight, I kinda owe Lincoln one." Eva sighed out as she continued lifting weights in both of her arms as she walked next to the buffet table filled with an assortment of gourmet and delicious food and desserts. "He kinda kept me from being eliminated in the second episode when he got my MP3 player back from Heather. And knowing me I would have…admittedly blown up in some way if I lost my music. The kid's got a big heart and is always looking out for others, it's corny but sweet."

"Yeah, I was pretty shocked to be the third camper voted off." Cutting back to Noah, who had now removed his shirt and left it on the bar counter to dry, the brainiac was giving his two sense on his time on the island. "Apparently, I wasn't bossy, manipulative, or "dangerous" enough to make it through. You can't say I wasn't a team player, though."

"Uh-huh, you were great moral support alright?" You could practically feel Leshawna's eye roll and sarcasm.

"Oh, my gosh!" Sadie let out, not paying Noah's words any mind. Not like they were on the same team anyway. "We have so much to tell you since we've been here!"

Katie gasped and happily nodded as she looked into the camera. "Can I say hi to my peeps back home?" Katie and Sadie then waved at the camera. "What's up, Toronto?"

"We're having so much fun here. This resort rocks!" Sadie cheered as she spun around in her seat.

"Yeah. Total Drama Island was really hard." Katie then gained a sad smile as she recalled the hardest part of Total Drama Island, fighting and having to separate from her best friend in the entire world. "We even survived our first major fight."

"That was so sad." Sadie nodded as she took her best friend's hand into her own so they could comfort each other as they went over the sadder times of this show. "But we totally recovered, and even though that was all like, so majorly hard, nothing was as hard as when we were separated."

"Aww, Sadie!" Katie gushed as she grabbed her BFFL's other hand.

Back with Harold, we see the geeky boy walking up to Justin as the super model hung out by the buffet table, trying to decide what to eat. "Alright pretty boy, enough's enough!" Harold said firmly as he puffed out his skinny chest, trying to look tougher…it wasn't very effective. "I've had it up to here with you swooning my Leshawna! It ends today!"

"…" Justin was silent at first as he simply gave Harold a confused look. "Uh, I'm sorry…"

"Don't play dumb with me Justin!" Harold pointed harshly at Justin's face, the model's expression not changing. "This ends now! You just show yourself off every day and thinking your hot stuff, but just wait till I give everyone a dose of my wicked skills!"

 

 

 

Harold then struck a karate pose as Justin stared at him for a few more seconds before blinking a few times and saying, "…And you are…"

 

 

 

Harold's expression turned to one of surprised as he stopped posing. "Wait, what?" The geek had to make sure he heard that right…did Justin just ask who he was?"

"Yeah, sorry but who are you again and why are you bringing this up to me?" Justin legitimately had no clue who exactly Harold was and why he was bringing this up to him. A gorgeous model like him didn't exactly have the time to deal with what was probably some jealous geek anyway.

"You seriously have no idea who I am!?" If Harold was mad at this guy before with his looks getting Leshawna's attention, then he was certainly ticked off at the guy not even knowing he existed. They were on the same show for crying out loud!

"…" Justin was silent as he lowered his sunglasses.

"Harold? From the Killer Bass!" Harold yelled out in an agitated tone.

"…" Justin still couldn't recognize Harold.

"I won the Talent Show contest! Lasted eight episodes longer than you!" Harold further went on, Justin quickly rising up on Harold's list of people he didn't like.

"Sorry doesn't ring a bell." Justin simply shrugged with Harold's jaw dropping. Putting on his flawless smile, Justin pulled out a pen and took a napkin from the buffet table and wrote something down on it. "But hey, here's my autograph kid. Something to brag about to your friends."

Justin then handed the napkin autograph to Harold before going over to the other end of the buffet table. Looking at the napkin, Harold saw that Justin wrote his name on it along with 'to my biggest fan Harold' …only, "He spelled my name wrong." Harold deadpanned as he showed off the napkin to the camera and saw Justin wrote Harold's name as Harolb.

Back over with Dawn, the nature lover hadn't moved a bit from the position she was in earlier. She still wasn't partying with the other ex-contestants, not lining up at the buffet to snag some vegan grub, and just not having any fun. At this point, everyone was really starting grow more concerned over this behavior with Courtney walking up to the nature lover and sitting at the foot of her chair. "Dawn come on you can't keep going on like this." The CIT put a hand on Dawn's leg and spoke to her with a soft and comforting tone. While she wasn't super close to the nature lover, they were on the same team and lived together for quite a while so she thought her and Dawn were still pretty good friends. "I know you're sad about being away from him, I'm upset that I can't be around Duncan as well. But you can't let your sadness consume you like this."

A groaning sound was heard as Dawn, for the first time today, finally sat up and showed her face. A depressed expression painted the nature lover's face with her eyes blood shot and baggy, the usual berry lipstick no longer on her lips. "I'm sorry Courtney…" Dawn whimpered out as Courtney scootched closer to Dawn and wrapped an arm around the aura reader, allowing her to lean on the CIT for support. "It's just…really hard here without Lincoln…" Dawn wiped her eyes a bit as Courtney patted her on the back.

"Hey? What happened to all the steaks?" Back at the buffet table, everyone nearby looked to Justin as he stood in front of an empty plate that held all the cooked steaks. The super model looked a bit ticked off as he pointed to the plate that only had grease left on it. "Seriously, who took all the steaks? This amazing and flawless body needs fuel to keep it going ya know."

"Buuuuurp!" As if on cue, a loud burping sound was heard making everyone look to the very end of the table and saw a slightly bloated Edward. The Platypus had grease stains on his bill and a depressed look on his face. "Brbrbr…"

"Aaaww, doing ok there little guy?" DJ asked as he walked up to Edward, speaking in a sympathetic tone as he lightly patted the platypus' back and making him burp again.

"Congrats, you solved the mystery of the missing steaks." Noah spoke up with his usual tone from the pool bar, nose in his book. "And here I thought we'd never crack it. Good job everyone."

As some of the ex-contestants gave Noah annoyed looks, Dawn spoke up with Courtney still comforting her. "Sorry about that Justin." Dawn apologized as Edward made a small squeaking sound. "He's just being a little rascal…"

"Trying to fill the void with food huh?" Dj asked as he gently picked up the platypus, Edward nodding in response. Meanwhile Bunny stood atop of DJ's shoulder and gave a sympathetic look to his fellow mammal. "Come on buddy, you need a distraction that isn't gonna put on the pounds. Let's go get a spa treatment."

"Brbrbr…" Edward let out as DJ took him and Bunny to where Beth and Sharks were enjoying their spa time.

"How would I characterize my experience?" Eva repeated the question the cameraman gave her as she grilled up some more steaks due to Edward taking all the ones on the buffet table for himself. "Easy, it sucked." Eva growled as she recalled all the stupid and infuriating experiences she had on the island. "Had to deal with scum sucking (BLEEP) and a bunch of (BLEEP)ing (BLEEP) and their stupid (BLEEP)! …My anger management issues improved a bit."

Just then Lindsay chose a poor time to walk up to Eva and ask her, "Are you Tyler?" Lindsay's response was Eva smacking her in the face with a steak. Thankfully it was one Eva had yet to put on the grill.

"Did I get anything out of this experience?" Now it was Noah's turn to answer the question. "No. It was completely and totally uneventful."

A certain psycho hose beast thought differently however as she emerged from the water holding a harpoon gun. "He kissed a guy."

"No, I didn't!" Noah quickly denied as he slammed his book down on the bar counter.

"Yes you did!" Izzy nodded with a stupid grin on her face.

"Didn't!

"Did!"

"Did! Not!"

"Did did did did did did did did~" Now Izzy was starting to sing it, really ticking off the know it all. "Did did did did did did did did did."

Cutting off Izzy by clearing his throat, Trent, who was now relaxing at the bar as well, spoke up and gave his two sense on the matter. "Uh, I can break this tie." The guitarist said as he pointed a thumb at Noah. "He totally did."

Noah's eyes widened as Sadie put a finger to her chin in thought before smiling and laughing a bit. "Oh yeah! It was Cody wasn't it?" Sadie asked as she started laughing even more.

"Oh yeah! Hahah!" Now Katie started to laugh as the memory came back to her. "It was during the awake-a-thon challenge, you kissed his ear while sleeping!"

"It was soooooo cute!" Sadie gushed and laughed at the same time as Noah's eye started to twitch. "You were sucking on his ear like a baby!"

"Haha, didn't know you swung that way string bean." Leshawna laughed, enjoying the teasing of Noah. Bout time he got a taste of his own medichine.

Noah simply crossed his arms and averted his gaze from everyone. "I have...no comment." Noah growled out through his teeth.

"Oh my gosh! Oh my gosh!" After recovering from her steak caused injury, Lindsay ran out to the edge of the pool that had the bar with a letter in her hand and a big smile on the dumb blond's face. "I got a letter from my sister that says there's a picture of me in Star Stalker magazine!"

Lindsay, followed soon by Katie and Sadie, squealed in excitement as Leshawna clapped for her. "Woo! Way to go girl!" Leshawna cheered for her blond friend. "You gettin your name out there!"

"Eee! Congratulations, you just peaked." Noah sarcastically squealed and said with an annoyed look on his face, his ears ringing from the three girls squealing. "It's all downhill from here, honey." This earned him a punch to the shoulder from Leshawna. "Ow!"

"Maybe if I get an eating disorder or my boobs done, I'll get on the cover!" Lindsay hopped up and down in excitement over the thought.

Back with Harold, the ginger peaked his head out from the door that led to the inside part of the resort with his eyes on Justin. The super model was currently living like a king as he laid down in a lawn chair with the two sharks from earlier swooning over him with one sharking fanning him with a large palm leaf and the other feeding the 16-year-old model grapes. And of course, many girls were admiring him from the distance, including Leshawna. "Think your cool huh Justin? Well I can be cool too!" Stepping outside, Harold pulled some shades out of his pocket and put them on, putting on the coolest smirk he can think of as he did a 'cool walk' forward. "Once Leshawna sees how chill I am she'll be after me in no time!"

Harold then stopped once he was next to a lamp post and leaned against it with one arm as he snapped his fingers and pointed to the person that just passed him, that being Ezekial. "How's it hanging dude?" Harold spoke with his signature cool guy voice.

"Pretty good dawg." Ezekial gave Harold a similar gesture as he passed by the geek.

Harold nodded his head, it was working! People thought he was cool! Sadly, this wouldn't last long as a spider suddenly came down from the top of the lamp post and got right in front of Harold's face. "AAAAAAAAAAAAHHHH!" Harold quickly found himself running and screaming as he tried to get the spider off of him, making many bystanders watch and laugh. Especially when it ended up with Harold running face first into a palm tree. "Ooooww…did I get it?"

BONK!

To add injury to injury, a coconut proceeded to fall from the tree and right onto Harold's head, knocking the poor guy out.

"Are you Tyler?" Lindsay asked as she walked up to the unconscious geek.

"So Trent," Chris spoke up from behind the camera as he was back to the pool bar, looking right at the guitarist who put his drink down to speak. "If you could say something to one of the five remaining campers, what would it be?"

Trent blushed a little, instantly telling everyone who he was thinking about. "I'd tell Gwen that I was rooting for her all the way." Trent didn't hesitate to speak up about his gothic love interest. "I miss her and I know she can make it all the way! She's special, and I think I'm in love with her."

"Aaaaaaawww," Katie and Sadie gushed with sparkles in her eyes.

"Even though you almost left her buried alive?" Izzy spoke up as she emerged from the water yet again holding a skewer.

"Hey come on," Trent let out, not really appreciating Izzy bringing up that little incident. It wasn't a pleasant memory for him or Gwen…or really anyone that wasn't simply a viewer on that day during that challenge. "That was a complete accident, and I went back for her."

"You ran away after promising to stay by her side!" Izzy persisted on this, though no one really knew why she was pushing this.

"I was caught off guard by the mime alright." Trent glared a bit at Izzy as he defended himself. "The second I could I went and dug her up and apologized, it wasn't my fault."

"Yeah, right. That's what they all say!" Izzy rolled her eyes and crossed her arms, dropping the skewer into the pool. "All guys are just like that, they act all goofy and sweet and say they love you and tell you how sexy you are when belly dancing yet the second a psycho killer with a chainsaw and hook is in front of you he pushes you right into them just to save himself and not caring if you die! HAHAHAHA!"

"…" There was a long awkward silence as everyone sitting at the pool bar looked at Izzy with widened eyes and a look of unease. Clearing her throat, Katie was the one to speak up first. "Do…you…wanna talk about it?"

"NO!" Izzy snapped at them, making everyone flinch as Izzy floated right where she was. "I think I'm just gonna go to the bathroom…" Once again, everything was silent as the ex-contestants at the bar looked awkwardly at each other…until, "Aaaaah…"

"Ah!" Noah screamed as he quickly lifted his feet out of the water as Izzy peed in the fool.

"Girl you nasty!" Leshawna screamed as she, Trent, Katie and Sadie lifted their feet out as well.

"That is so gross!" Lindsay commented as she passed by.

"What? It's chlorinated!" Izzy rolled her eyes at everyones 'overreactions' to her business. "Sheesh."

"Okay. You've seen how the losers are spending their time." Chris narrated as the camera panned through the entire resort. "Now it's time to find out what they think of the final five."

"Heather can kiss my butt!" Suddenly Eva, with a completely pissed look on her face, was right in front of the camera. "It's all her fault I'm stuck in this place! She's a scum-sucking, backstabbing witch and I'm going to enjoy watching her go down!"

"Wow, tell us how you really feel." You could practically feel the grin on Chris' face.

"I just did." Eva bluntly said.

Over by the Grill, we see Izzy…placing a coconut onto it. "Just throwing a few shrimps on the barbie. Hey Noah, that means you." Izzy spoke up to the know it all who frowned at Izzy back at the pool bar. "Haha, just kidding. Okay. Well, I think Heather is a total psycho."

"She's a bitch." Dawn said right into the camera with a tired yet incredibly angry look on the nature lover's face, Courtney still sitting next to her. If anyone else could see auras, they could notice that Dawn's had turn incredibly dark and distorted.

"…Think I'm gonna leave that one uncensored." Chris laughed from behind the camera.

"Seriously, I mean reading Gwen's diary to the entire world was bad enough." Courtney fully agreed with Dawn as she glared at the camera, wishing she could give Heather a piece of her mind. "But what she did to Dawn? I knew she was cruel and underhanded, but rigging the votes!"

CONFESSIONAL – HEATHER

The door to the confessional opened up with Heather stepping inside. As the queen bee sat down…a wooden box was seen in her hands. She grinned as she pulled out a nail fail and used it to break off the lock sealing it shut, the file breaking as well. "Dang it!" Heather let out as her file broke, but her smirk soon returned. It didn't matter, opening up the box the queen bee removed the papers inside and replaced them with a new batch. "So, think I'm lazy huh? We'll see about that." Heather then pulled out a new lock to replace the one she broke off as well as throwing the old lock in the toilet to hide it.

"That is going way too far!" Courtney shook her head before putting on a softer expression and putting her hands on Dawn's shoulder. "But don't worry Dawn, I promise you justice will be delivered. I promised as soon as the show's over we'll get the best lawyer I know!"

"Oh…a lawyer…" Dawn did her best to smile. She knew Courtney was trying to help and support her through this rough time away from Lincoln…but Dawn wasn't exactly one to get involved with lawyers and such for…obvious reasons. "Greeeeeeat…"

Thankfully Courtney didn't seem to notice Dawn's uncomfortableness at the offer and clapped her hands, but Noah did notice Dawn's reaction towards it. "Wow look at that, someone untrusting of the legal system." Noah grinned in his usual Noah way as he watched the scene with amusement. "Legend says only around 7 billion of them exist."

BONK!

"Ow!" Suddenly a coconut, thrown by Courtney of course, struck Noah's head and sent the know it all into the pool.

"Hah, had that coming." Leshawna laughed as the camera panned onto her and Trent.

"Well I hope I never meet anyone like her ever again!" Trent gave his thoughts on the queen bee. From what he's experienced and watched, Heather was a completely cruel and merciless woman that did whatever it took to win.

"Ha, couldn't agree with ya more." Leshawna nodded in agreement with Trent as she glared into the camera. "Calling that girl a rat is an insult to rats! She was the biggest pain in my butt I've ever met and I only regret that I'm not gonna be the one to take her down!"

"She is really mean." Lindsay added her two sense in from a nearby lawn chair while holding a tanning mirror. "Like, really mean!"

"She was pretty bossy eh," Ezekial commented.

"Oh, she was so totally bossy." Katie agreed with Sadie nodding.

"Telling her off was the best moment of my life." Beth said right to the camera as she remembered when she finally broke away from Heather during the paintball deer hunt challenge.

"If none of us even like her, how did Heather get into the final five?" Sadie asked, confused to how Heather was able to come so far with nearly everyone against her the entire time.

"BECAUSE SHE (BLEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEP!)" Dawn suddenly stood up on her lawn chair in a rage and yelled out some intense profanity. Everyone went silent as they stared at the nature lover. Dawn, quickly realizing what she said, covered her mouth and sat back down.

"…She learned that from you ya know eh," Ezekial said to Lindsay who simply hid herself behind her tanning mirror.

"Um, well…changing the subject," Courtney sheepishly cleared her throat as she patted Dawn on the back, the nature lover trying to make herself smaller. "Who would I like to win…well, I have to say…Duncan." Courtney blushed a bit as thoughts of the delinquent entered her mind. "I never would have expected it from day one, but he's really helped me a lot and reminded me how I can have actual fun. He just…means a lot to me."

"Duncan? Man that is one tough dude!" DJ said as the camera panned to him as he, Edward, and Bunny were enjoying a spa treatment. "I saw him wrestle a grizzly bear to the ground."

With Harold, we see the geek looking at different swim suits and trying to see which one would look cooler on him. "Duncan? I hate that guy!" Harold immediately showed his distaste for the delinquent. "I saw all the footage of the past episodes and if it wasn't for Lincoln, he would have stolen all my underwear and do who knows what with them! He already made me pee my pants and pushed me into the river…multiple times! He's beyond annoying. Idiot!"

Bridgette however had her own two sense. "Duncan's not as tough as he seems." The surfer girl pointed out as she continued to chill in the hot tub with Geoff. "Courtney told me he has a sweet side to him."

"Well I think he's pretty cruel." Lindsay commented after taking a sip of her drink. "Anyone who treats deer and trees badly is not a friend to deer or trees."

"While I can't say I approve of his vandalization of nature," Dawn spoke up after somewhat getting over her embarrassment from earlier. "Once you get to know him and his aura he's really not that bad of a guy."

"Owen?" Katie asked as the topic turned to the biggest member of the final 5. "He was so much fun."

"Owen's pretty cool." Justin commented after eating a grape one of the sharks fed him. "Although after the last challenge I might need to try and keep a bit of distance from him…"

"I don't think I have a single bad thing to say about him." Sadie pointed out before cringing a bit. "Well…other then maybe his toxic farts but other then that he's a great guy!"

"The dude was able to burp the entire alphabet in one go." Trent chuckled as he recalled that memory from the talent show challenge. "Now that was freaking awesome."

"We all know who you wanna win~" Sadie said to Trent with Katie smiling and nodding, the best friends and everyone else knowing who Trent wanted to win.

"Yeah, Gwen's definitely my choice." Trent didn't deny it for a second and smiled.

"I have to admit Gwen is a pretty smart competitor." Courtney gave her thoughts on the goth girl as she went over to the pool bar to get something to drink. "And athletic as well, I was pretty impressed with her performance during the obstacle course during both the military challenge and the vertigo challenge, she has a diverse skillset."

"She let herself get buried for her team." Trent stepped in with even more good things to say about Gwen. "I don't know anyone else that would do something like that.

"She was kinda harsh sometimes." Lindsay pointed out as she remembered the times Gwen was rather mean to her. Granted yes she was working with Heather which certainly didn't do anything to improve her relationship with the goth, but she was still quite scary to Lindsay. But then the dumb blond remembered something that made her smile. "Oh, but she played the best prank on Heather. Hah."

"Oh yeah! With my ant farm!" Harold, who was know wearing a gold chain with a golden H on it, laughed as he remembered the night Gwen came to his cabin and asked him for it. "They gave their lives for a great cause."

"Yo Harold, where'd the heck you get that?" Trent asked as he rose a brow over Harold's bling. "And why are you wearing it dude?"

"Just trying to up my macho factor." Harold answered as he flexed his skinny arms. "What do you think?"

"…Pfft, keep it up dude." Trent used all of his will power not to burst out laughing and risk Harold stopping whatever he was doing. "Ya look great!"

"Yes!" Harold cheered as he pumped a fist.

"Well, I think Gwen's really cool." Bridgette spoke up about the goth girl. "She was really nice to me when I moved in with her, Leshawna, Heather, and Lindsay. Although Lincoln was probably one of my best friends on the island and even taught me how to draw. It's a tough choice but I'd vote for either to win."

"Yeah Lincoln's a really cool guy." Geoff nodded as he recalled some good times he had with the white-haired boy. "He made a mean lasagna during the cooking challenge and I gotta hand it to the dude, he can take a punch!"

"Got that right." DJ nodded in agreement, now having cucumbers covering his eyes. "Man I couldn't believe the guy took all that pain for everyone during the say uncle challenge. Now that's what I call a friend."

"He may have cheated but he only did it to protect his girl." Harold immediately stepped in to say nice things about the person he would easily say was his best friend on the island. "He also stepped in to stop the guys from playing a bunch of pranks on me. He was easily the coolest guy on the island."

"Ya know at first I thought he was just a big softie." Courtney gave her opinions about the Loud boy. "And to be fair he kinda is, but he's a really easy person to talk to. I'll admit he was able to get me to say things I've…never really said and admitted before. Plus if Gwen had diverse skills, Lincoln is straight up a swiss army knife. Cooking, strategizing, shooting, taking pain, stomaching gross stuff, bravery, granted he sucks at building but no one is perfect I guess. He's just kind of a stand-up guy."

"Yeah snowball sure got a heart of gold alright." Leshawna chuckled after taking a sip of her drink. "Even taught him how to be a bit bolder with Dawn which I'm sure as heck he's really gonna put into action when those two meet up again."

"Tell us Dawn," Chris spoke to the nature lover now that Lincoln was the talk of the resort. "If you could say one thing to Lincoln, what would it be?"

Dawn took a deep breath before looking right into the camera, knowing exactly what she wanted to say. "Lincoln, I want you to be strong." Dawn began as she tried to keep herself from crying. "You thought I was your support through the competition, but it's the opposite. You're the one who kept me going. Before you I didn't really have any human friends, let alone a boyfriend. You're so strong and I know you can do anything you put your mind into. It hurts not being with you, our auras felt like they were connected and had become one. So please, just stay strong a little while longer and I'll be there to support you every step of the way."

"Aaaaawww," Almost all the girls, and some guys, at the resort gushed once Dawn finished.

"You guys are totes my OTP!" Lindsay gushed while clapping her hands.

THAT NIGHT

It was now night time at the loser's resort. The ex-contestants were gathered around the main pool with Trent playing his guitar as the tiki torches were lit and providing light along with the moon. Well, there was one camper missing but he soon joined the rest with his skin as red as a lobster. "Cody, dude you got cooked." Trent chuckled a little as Cody walked up to the others.

"Who? Me?" Cody chuckled as he waved off Trent's claim…only to sit down and, "Ouch, aw, aw, aw, aw, aw!" Even sitting down caused Cody great pain due to the state his skin was in. "Little sensitive, heh-heh."

"So, who do you guys want to win if you could vote right now?" DJ asked the question that was on everyone's mind.

"Oh! Can I pick Sadie?" Katie asked as she and her best friend floated through the pool on tubes.

"Aww, you'd pick me and not you?" Sadie gushed.

"Duh. You can't vote for yourself, that's tacky." Katie pointed it out like it was obvious.

However, both were cut off by Courtney clearing her throat. "Girls? You have to be in the final five to get a vote, remember?" The CIT informed them with a deadpanned look.

"Oh yeah," Sadie chuckled sheepishly. "I don't know then."

"Well I think Gwen should win." Cody was the first to give his vote with a smile on his face.

"Really?" Lindsay questioned with a raised brow. "But she rejected you on international TV for someone more cooler, hunkier and more stylish."

"Thanks for pointing that out Lindsay, heheh," Thankfully Cody was able to laugh the, hopefully, unintentional insult off. "Gwen is my dream girl. I'm just not her dream guy. But as long as she's happy, hey, I'm happy. Hehe."

"That's really cool dude," Trent complimented the tech geek next to him. Trent had a lot of respect for Cody, even though he liked Gwen he helped set her up with him just so Gwen would be happy. Trent gave Cody a pat on the back for this…only to make Cody scream in pain due to his sunburn. "Oops, sorry man."

"I can't decide between Lincoln and Gwen." Bridgette spoke up as she put a finger to her chin in thought. "They're both really cool."

"Lincoln for sure." Harold spoke up with a nod. "He saved me from a prank beat down, I owe him a lot."

"Lincoln should win." And no one was surprised by Dawn's vote as she held Edward close to her. "I know he can do it."

"Brbrbr." Edward added.

"I think Owen should win." Beth gave her vote.

"He's a ticking time bomb of noxious fumes." Noah pointed out as he remembered Owen's many…many…many…many farts.

"Owen, definitely." Geoff was on board with Beth with his vote. "Dude can chug three liters of pop under a minute. He deserves a hundred Gs."

"It's a close call for me between Lincoln and Duncan, but I think I gotta go with Linc," DJ Finally gave his vote. "His clever thinking allowed us to breeze through the dodgeball game easily!"

"He established a perfect defense that led to a perfect offense." Eva summarized the strategy Lincoln gave them for that challenge. "He's got a good head."

"I think Gwen should win!" Lindsay spoke up with her vote.

"And there you have it folks!" The camera then turned around and focused on Chris standing on the dock to the loser's resort. "Everyone has given their vote and two sense to the campers remaining on the island. With only 5 left, the end is so close you can taste it! Will Owen bring home the cheddar? Will Duncan steal the competition? Can Lincoln pull through without his true love? Will Gwen's attitude tough her through the pain? Or will Heather push against all the odds and achieve her goal? The answers to all of these and more coming up on the next dramatic episode of Total…Drama…Island!"
