Total Drama Equestria

Episode Fifteen: Feeling Izzy Keen

"This crossover of My Little Pony and Total Drama contains scenes of extreme stunts performed by animated teens or ponies. Do not try any of what you see here at home. Seriously, you could get messed up."

-----------------

Twilight: Hey folks. Twilight Sparkle here, filling in for Chris who is a little depressed at the moment...

Rainbow: More like a lot, egghead.

Twilight: What she said. Anyway, last time on this show called Total Drama Equestria, my friends and I are becoming suspicious of our new pony friends, especially with their bad attempts of trying to leave Ponyville involving fishing, hunting, surfing, whatever. We decided to follow them and Discord back to Canterlot where we found out a little secret. Turns out our friends were really humans, players of Earth's reality show Total Drama, which Pinkie knows a lot about.

Pinkie: Yep! And Blaineley got all 'Oh no, Chris, you hate me, you hate me, and ooooh, I'm going to leave you', along with the other stuff!

Twilight: Right, something like that. Anyway, the princesses told us that they, along with those who were 'reassigned' were playing a season of the reality show in Equestria but then things got bad big time. As it turns out, the so-called attacker was Celestia and Luna's Uncle Tuerto, who became corrupted by the spirit of the Cutie Mark Pool, renaming him Master Welara, causing him to almost harm Megan, Danny and Molly centuries ago. Tuerto is after an eye that he lost years ago and won't stop until he gets it.

Fluttershy: Eeep. How awful!

Twilight: According to Celestia, only a pony with three green rings could stop Tuerto, and sadly, it wasn't Megan. Thanks to a triangle with three glass projectiles by Noah, the clue to the eye's location is translated. Heather, Gwen, Leshawna, Trent, Cody, Brick, Sam, Eva, Sadie, and Sierra quit the game to go on a quest to find it while the remaining 10 stay to play the game going on right now.

We see the Mane Six in the throne room. Twilight spoke to the camera saying, "As you can tell, Chris is in a funk right now, so who knows when he's hosting? We're taking over in the meantime."

Rainbow smirks while exclaiming, "Hay yeah! We are in charge! 10 players remain and we're hitting the merge. Will our quest pals succeed? And who will be the next player to take the Suck-O-Gone, from what we told?

"Find out next time in this Super Duper Amazing Funny Great Show known as..." As Pinkie finishes, we pan away from the castle until we stop outside. "...Total...Drama...EQUESTRIA; Okie dokie lokie!"

JUSSONIC AND TOONWRITER PRESENTS...

AN ORANGE RATCHET PRODUCTION...

We see an intro like in every season of Total Drama as well as 'My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic'. Twilight Sparkle and Spike yelped upon popping up cameras in their balloons, but ignored them as Rainbow Dash flew around and started charging towards the town of Ponyville, where the pony versions of our favorite Total Drama players were currently residing.

Down below, we see Beth and Brady talking a little bit as Cody was seen looking at two pictures, wondering which one he should choose. Twilight Sparkle and Spike landed nearby as they passed by Gwen and Trent, who were laughing together as Geoff came along.

Twilight smiled as she saw her friends and Ben (the latter seemed to be holding Scott and Alejandro down on his hooves), as Josh was smiling in interest and Blaineley was instantly jumping up and down in excitement.

Dear mom and dad, I'm doing fine
You guys are on my mind
You asked me what I wanted to be
And now I think the answer is plain to see
I want to be famous

Rainbow Dash was seen smiling as she, along with a floating Bridgette, was seen charging over towards Heather, who seemed to be hiding something in her bag, causing her to sneer at the two. Leshawna could only roll her eyes as Sam and Dakota were seen laughing with each other.

I'm really having lots of fun;
But we are really on the run;
I have to be brave on the soul,
But I only have one important goal,
I want to be famous!

We then see Pinkie Pie blowing up some balloons as Harold was watching, Duncan and Courtney could only smirk as they were holding some water balloons... but then the two yelped as Izzy suddenly swung down, holding some dynamite, throwing it at the couple, whose eyes widened hard.

We then see Rarity posing seductively as Katie and Sadie were seen squealing, Katie pulling a surprised Noah over from his comfort zone as she hugged him tight. Noah couldn't help but smile a little bit, as he clung back onto Katie, but Ezekiel were seen laughing a bit as Eva was strapped to a chair, trying to squirm her way out of a make-up session with Rarity.

I have to be in this game,
In order to claim some fame,
Everything hangs in the balance of life,
As we take everything in strife,
I want to be famous!

We later see Applejack kicking some apples off the tree as Sierra was busy helping out on the farm, Brick ordering Lightning, Staci, Cameron, and Jo to run laps around the area, though Jo and Lightning were a little less than pleased to run around.

We then see Fluttershy and Dawn feeding an apple to Angel as he gobbled it down. DJ and B were seen gathering a few bears around the area as Sasquatch as Owen and Anne Maria were seen being carried around by a pack of zebras, both of them yelping as they were trying to call for help.

I want to live close to the sun
Well, pack your bags cause I've already won.
Everything to prove nothing in my way
I'll get there one day

Cause I want to be famous

We then see Twilight and Lindsay both wearing their crowns as they were smiling, Tyler coming near Lindsay as Mike, Zoey, and Justin (the latter of which seemed beat up) held the Cutie Mark Crusaders and Nyx as the entire Total Drama contestants, the Mane Six, Discord, and Ben Mare posed for a quick picture as Spike and Phobos took the picture.

Spike then rolled the paper as he used his dragon magic to blow it over to Celestia.

Nanana'nanaana nana nana
I want to be, I want to be; I want to be famous

Inside the throne room of Castle Canterlot, as Celestia and Luna waited, they noticed the letter coming in as it formed, and they were about to look inside...

I want to be, I want to be, I want to be famous

...when Chris and Chef popped in and took the letter, Chef accidentally ripping up part of the letter as Chris blinked in embarrassment. Celestia and Luna could only groan as the camera popped over to seeing the entire gang in their normal human forms gathering together and whistling the last bit of the song, unknowing that in the background was a mysterious figure with a glowing red eye peering in from the window, the screen fading to back, as the last eerie notes from the song 'Chim Chim Cheree- East Winds' played.

Episode Fifteen: Feeling Izzy Keen

After doing the intro, Twilight send the remaining players back to Ponyville where she plans on rejoining them later. She, Celestia, Luna and Discord are trying to figure out how to help Chris out of the funk that's in.

"I tried all I could. The best I can do is break in, take his chair and put it out towards the windows, but nothing!" The Spirit of Chaos and Disharmony groans. Discord points towards Chris, who seemed really upset as he was eating from a bag of chips and sipping on a soda loudly.

Twilight grimaces as she spoke, "This is bad... pretty bad..."

Celestia nods as she spoke, "Indeed. This isn't the Chris I knew from the past few days..."

"Maybe after everything we told about Tuerto finally affected his psyche." Luna said seriously. In the past, Chris was a care-free, selfish girl. And now, the revelation involving Tuerto has really turned him into a HSD; and that conversion with Blaineley...

"Maybe that, but... Luna, you don't suppose that maybe, at one time..."

Luna frowns as she remarks, "Nah, that's impossible. When has Chris ever felt love?"

"Seemed to be showing some signs..." Celestia said thoughtfully. Perhaps his interaction with Blaineley has something to do with this!

Discord shakes his head as he said, "We need to introduce our next challenge, and Chris can't do it looking like this... and the Final Ten needs some human authority to make sure it's realistic."

"What about Chef?" Celestia ask, recalling how Chef would step in whenever Chris couldn't be able to do the challenges himself.

"Chef's only good and useful for the tougher challenges, the more military/fight like challenges, like the Equestria Game rejects from earlier."

Luna shudders, recalling that episode. The Goddess of the Night said, "Don't remind me..."

Celestia pause then sighs, "Well, Discord is right. Chris can't act like this forever. So until he snaps out of it, we need a replacement Chris. What we need is someone new... someone fresh... somebody who's a Chris McClean expert..."

As if on cue, a portal opened up as Chef came in...follow by an excitable teenage boy with brown spiky hair, a blue and white shirt, and khaki shorts jumping in and smiling. Celestia and Luna jumped as the boy came in. Chris didn't seem to look up once, but was aware someone else was there.

"Did somebody call for a Chris McClean expert?" The boy asks anxiously, much to the ponies' surprise and Discord's amusement.

"What the- who is this?" Luna asks in bewilderment, not familiar with this newcomer.

Chef explains with a grunt, "One of the players from the upcoming new season, our producers just sent them to the warehouse where the portal to Equestria was this morning. I needed to pick this one because his picture and credentials seemed to be the more interesting!"

The boy nods as he exclaims, "Right! I'm not going to be in until next season, but I'm at your service!" The newcomers pull out a resume and credentials from his pocket. "Topher's the name, here's my resume, my business card, and all my credentials. Chef told me Chris had become unavailable for the moment. Anything happened to him?"

Celestia looks over the resume as she spoke, "Hmmm... you seem to have pretty good qualifications..."

"Uh, excuse me, Mr. Topher... you do know you're looking at a bunch of talking ponies, right?" Luna ask Topher, wondering why the boy isn't freaked out over talking to talking ponies.

Topher looks around at the other ponies who were waving, then shrugged as he said, "Hey, I figured, if it didn't bother Chris or Chef, it didn't bother me."

Luna turns to Chef while asking, "Wait, so if Topher's part of the new cast, where are the other members?"

"Oh, they're there back in the real world by the other room, but I told them they're on standby until further notice... I figure, you know, give one a sneak peek of one contestant in each future episode, you know, something like that." Chef explains to Luna with a shrug.

Celestia nods as she comments, "Hmmm... yes, I see." The Alicorn turns to Topher, "You, young man, you seem to be pretty qualified. We need your help for being a temporary co-host. Chris can't do it because he seems to be really depressed. It's a long story, but..."

Topher smiles as he interrupts, "And the short version of the story is that you need me to help out with the challenges and hosting duties until Chris returns..."

Celestia nods as she continues, "Precisely! Can you help us?"

Topher in excitement ask, "Are you kidding? It was my DREAM to host this show!"

Celestia smiles while giggling, "Great! Topher, if you'd be so kind as to follow Discord, he has a challenge idea for when they got to this point in the game!"

Topher squees, "This is awesome!"

"Right; Come on!" The spirit exclaims as Topher latches on to Discord as both of them disappeared.

Luna calls out, "We'll see you in the Everfree Forest in a bit!"

------------

It was next morning at Sweet Apple Acres. Applejack was sleeping in her bed...when she hears Scott screaming, "HELP! HELP ME!"

"What 'de hay?" Applejack groans as she woke up. The mare got up from her sleep and came out of the bedroom...and saw Granny Smith attacking Scott, still a human, with a mallet, "Granny Smith?!"

"Who are ya, vermint?! What did you do to some of our guests?!" Granny Smith snaps angrily as she hits Scott some more.

"Someone get this crazy mare away from me!" Scott exclaims frantically.

Applejack manages to get the mallet away from Granny Smith, saying, "Granny, Granny! 'Dis is Scott!"

"What? He ain't no pony!" Granny Smith exclaims in confusion then is surprised to see Lindsay and Ezekiel, also still humans, coming in. "What the...?"

"Right; Ah plum forgot 'ta tell ya."

---------

Scott: Ugh! I would rather take Fang the Shark than old mad Granny anytime!

--------

Applejack explains what she and Apple Bloom has found out last night. Granny nods in understanding as she spoke, "So wait, so, these youngins were humans?"

"Eeyup, 'dat's 'de idea," Apple Bloom exclaims with a nod.

"Well, at least we found out what happened to Applejack I."

"Yeah, Ah know."

------------------

Ezekiel: We are obviously in the Final Ten, eh. I have never been so stroked to make it so far!

-------------------

At the Carousel Boutique, Katie and Bridgette were helping Rarity make breakfast, the first two are still humans. Celestia and Luna had decided that the secret is pointless now AND since they feel safe with the other ten Total Drama players out for the search of the eye, figure they let them be humans now.

"Are you worried about Sadie, Katie?" Bridgette asks Katie in concern.

"Well, I am...but I'm sure she got the others to help her out." Katie said with a sigh. "As long as they help each other..."

"That's what friends are for, darling." Rarity said to Katie with a smile. "They help one another. And, you got Noah to help you out."

"Yeah, thanks for the words of encouragement."

-----------

Katie: It was a bit lonely without Sadie here with me, but Rarity's right. Noah's here so as long as he helps me, I should do fine.

----------------

"I wonder if Twilight will do fine with you, her and the others as co-hosts." Bridgette said thoughtfully.

"Yes, about that..." Rarity was about to say but a honking noise from the speakers interrupt her. "Goodness!"

"Attention, ponies! Please report to the front of the library in 5 minutes!" A new voice exclaims from the speakers. Everypony and everyone in Ponyville look bewildered. That isn't Chris's voice. Who was that?

"Something's up; Either Twilight is talking like a guy or that sounded similar to Chris." Katie said in concern.

------------------

A while later, everypony gathers in front of the library, with the 10 remaining players are in a line. Twilight had told the Mayor about what's going on. Although the leader of Ponyville was shocked that their town was hosting a home to a game that she wasn't aware of, at least Mayor Mare now found out what's going on.

The players notice a new face near the Mane Six and Discord. Scott frowns as he asks, "Who's the new guy?"

"Hello, campers! My name is Topher, a soon to be new player of Total Drama!" Topher exclaims excitedly. "I will be temporarily taking Chris's place while he's detained."

---------

B: (sighs in annoyance) Great. What we don't need; A Chris McClean wannabe.

-----------------

"Players, congratulations, you had now hit the merger!" Twilight exclaims to the players. B, Bridgette, Dawn, Ezekiel, Harold, Izzy, Lindsay, Katie, and Noah high-fiving each other, with Scott being left hanging. "From now on, it's every player for himself!"

"Right, and since this is the Final Ten, we decided to change things up a bit. Now the losers of the challenges, besides risking being eliminated, must stay where they were living at. But the winner, besides winning invincibility, get a temporarily stay in the Royal Sisters Classic Hotel!" Topher exclaims as Discord makes a frantic new hotel appears, making the players awe at it. "With everything you'll need, back rubs, free food, etc.!"

"Well, for a Chris McClean wannabe, you got our attention." Harold said to Topher with a smile.

"Wonderful to be hearing that from a veteran!"

"And we will continue from here!" Rainbow exclaims, taking over. "All right, Discord got a cool challenge to hand you all so listen up and try not to mess up on hearing him!"

---------------------

The Royal Sisters look at the monitors and nod. Celestia then turned towards another portal that just opened up as ten familiar ponies came out.

"Heather, Gwen, Leshawna, Trent, Cody, Brick, Eva, Sam, Sadie and Sierra; Good to see you're here!" Celestia exclaims, seeing that the players returning from the second Aftermath Show.

Heather nods as she spoke, "Right..."

"Listen up. You ten are part of a dangerous mission now, so I have to rely on you ten to go deep into the Everfree Forest and find the eye. Noah managed to do a little more research and did some double checkings, and on the paths that could or couldn't lead to the eye, there are going to be obstacles you'll have to overcome. Some are not easy, but if approached correctly, you'll be given another location as to the clue to the eye. That's all Noah got from the book... luckily, I managed to duplicate the same book, so...” Celestia made two books appear as she handed Heather the copy, and Brick the original. “...I'm entrusting these to you; Any questions?"

"No, let's go. Get on with it." The ponies said, saying that they got no questions and ready to give it their all.

"Well, if there are no more questions... I believe it's time I transported you all into the Everfree Forest... Chef, you coming," Celestia ask Chef who has remained behind for the meantime.

"In a bit; I'm going to see if I can coax Chris out..." Chef remarked, still trying to get Chris out of his room and funk.

Celestia nodded as her horn, along with Luna's, started to glow as she, Luna, Heather, Gwen, Leshawna, Trent, Cody, Eva, Brick, Eva, Sam, Sadie and Sierra disappeared...

-------------

Discord smiled as he turned towards the others, "Right. First of all, I would like to take you all to the Everfree Forest where we will discuss our tactics… and by all of us, I mean, me, our temporary co-host, Twilight, Fluttershy, Rarity and Applejack. The rest of you are walking."

"What?" The team players, Rainbow and Pinkie groaned.

"Why just US," Rainbow asked.

"You'll see." Discord said as he snapped his fingers, causing him, Topher, Twilight, Fluttershy, Rarity and Applejack to disappear to the Everfree Forest.

As soon as the hosts but Rainbow and Pinkie disappeared, the rest of the others went back to their regular lives as Rainbow turned to the ten remaining Total Drama players. "I suppose you're wondering why Chris isn't here..."

"May as well he shouldn't be here." Noah frowned. "He doesn't even care about any of us anyway!"

"Oh whoa, whoa. What makes you think that?" Pinkie asked. "Of course Chris cared about you!"

All ten blinked before laughing as Bridgette said, "Oh right, since when did he ever CARE for us?"

"Most of Island and Action," Pinkie pointed out. "Remember, in Island, Chris actually did allow people to communicate to the other teams..."

"Well..." Ezekiel paused. "He had a vendetta towards me! He doesn't even like me, eh!"

"And when did the vendetta start? Not on Total Drama Island, your first season," Pinkie said.

"Okay, maybe I annoyed Chris too much in World Tour, but he never gave me a chance!" Ezekiel frowned.

"And back in Action, who helped take care of Owen and fixed up his jaw, concerned for his safety?" Pinkie smiled as Rainbow blinked.

"Okay, you've got to hook me on that show sometime." Rainbow said.

"Fortunately, I have DVR recordings of all the seasons. Tonight, we can start watching it." Pinkie smiled.

"How can Chris ever care for us? He is a sadistic ass!" Dawn frowned.

"Let's sit down." Rainbow said as she, Pinkie and the ten people sat down. "It is true that Chris is a sadist, but at the same time, I kinda feel sorry for him."

All ten contestants stared at Rainbow in shock as Scott said, "You actually feel sorry for him?"

"Yeah," Pinkie nodded. "There he is, hosting the show day after day, only prompted by mounds of cold, heartless money. I don't like to see any living thing caged up."

Everyone blinked in shock as B said, "Chris McClean in a cage?"

-----------------------------------------------

Ezekiel: I must say, I've never thought of it this way before...

----------------------------------------------------

"Yeah, cages." Rainbow said. "They make cages in all sizes and shapes; Reality Show-shaped some of 'em, carpets and all."

"But Chris never gets punished for his actions... he may have shown signs of being nice back in those first two seasons..." Katie said.

"But something in him changed..." Lindsay sighed. "Sometimes, it feels Chef is his only friend."

"Well... let me say something." Pinkie said. "Unlike that meanie Chris, you guys have formed friendships on the show, something Chris never truly got... hardcore friendships, romantic friendships... there was a time Chris felt that way towards someone, but the cost of greed blinded his way so much he's forgotten what friendship was. I mean, Katie, you've got Sadie and Noah to rely on, along with the other Total Drama competitors, including your other friends. What about Chris, who looks after him?"

Rainbow nodded as she continued, "Tell me something. When something terrible happens, what does he do? Fends for himself, he does. Who does he tell about it? No one! Never talks about anything with anybody. He just pushes on at his job, uncomplaining and alone and silent."

"Silent; Chris; Please," Scott rolled his eyes.

"So, you're saying that Chris may need our help?" Harold asked.

"I don't know for sure..." Pinkie said as Izzy nodded. "What I do know is that anybody can always do with a bit of help."

Everyone nodded.

--------------------------------------------------

Bridgette: Looking at Chris's view... it makes sense. You try to do anything nice when mean producers are on your back.

-------------------------------------------------

"Well, come on, guys, we'll take you to the next challenge..." Rainbow said. "Bridgette, Ezekiel, Lindsay, Scott, Harold, you stay with me, Pinkie, take B, Dawn, Izzy, Noah and Katie with you!"

"You got it!" Pinkie said as the two groups started to march into the Everfree Forest.

----------------------------------------------

Izzy: Well, after that little endeavor, we decided to do a little sing along as we entered the Everfree Forest. Me and Pinkie are of course, the lead! (Smiles)

--------------------------------------------------------

Deep in the Everfree Forest, Pinkie and Izzy smiled as they started to skip around, singing as the others followed, getting used to Pinkie and Izzy's randomness right now.

(To the tune of 'Chim Chim Cheree' from 'Mary Poppins')

(Pinkie and Izzy)

The life of this, the life of this, the life of this place,

Can be as good, and as great as first base!

The blunt of this, the blunt of this, the blunt of this game,

Is a fun fact, and it's not really lame!

But the unreveals… are really lame, though!

Katie smiled as she sung the next verse.

(Katie)

As our time in this game is so short,

We have to go on, no time to abort,

Though we know that eye has yet to be found,

It could be anywhere, so don't make a sound!

Pinkie and Izzy nodded as they continued to sing.

(Pinkie and Izzy)

The life of this, the life of this, the life of this place,

Can be as good, and as great as first base!

The blunt of this, the blunt of this, the blunt of this game,

Is a fun fact, and it's not really lame!

(Everyone)

The life of this, the life of this, the life of this place,

Can be as good, and as great as first base!

The blunt of this, the blunt of this, the blunt of this game,

Is a fun fact, and it's not really lame!

(Pause the song)

"Here they are!" Rainbow said as the teams started to approach the area where the hosts are.

Discord, Twilight, Fluttershy, Rarity, Applejack, Ben, Celestia, and Luna were sitting down as Topher was munching on some popcorn, watching the pony versions of Heather, Gwen, Leshawna, Trent, Cody, Brick, Eva, Sam, Sadie and Sierra dancing as they sang, to the last few lines of 'The Backson Song'; "We must find the eye with all of our training; And we’ll find the Chosen One; and be family!"

"That's awesome!" Topher clapped.

"And that should catch you up on the plot so far." Heather sighed.

"Celestia, you couldn't have told him earlier?" Gwen sighed.

"Sorry, but he was so excited, and I didn't want to lay it all down on him..." Celestia sighed.

"SADIE!" Katie's voice shouted.

"Hi, Katie," Sadie called as the ten people, along with Rainbow and Pinkie have caught up.

Celestia nodded. "Good, you're all here now. Now, let's get down to business."

---------------------------------------------------------

Harold: Seeing our fellow heroes over there, I have confidence in their abilities.

---------------------------------------------------------

"Now, as you all already know, our fellow questers..." Celestia started.

"AKA, the people who quit this game," Discord smirked.

"...our fellow questers have volunteered to help in search of the eye." Celestia said. "Now, Noah, are you sure you've got everything figured out from the book?"

"I believe so!" Noah nodded. "Most of them say it'll take about a day to reach each quest, but luckily, we'll have our game finished by the time they're close to the eye."

"Good." Celestia said as she turned to the fellow quest people. "Heather, Gwen, Leshawna, Trent, Cody, Brick, Eva, Sam, Sadie, Sierra, you ten are all set for your quests. I gave you both the books, original and copy, and you should be all set to go!"

"Thanks!" Heather said.

"One other thing..." Celestia said as she handed the quest people ten watches. "Just so you'll be up to speed on what's currently going on on Total Drama. That way, you'll know everything that goes on."

"Thanks." Brick nodded.

"Well, that should be it for everything. Be sure to give your good-byes, everyone." Celestia said as everyone decided to give them well-wishes.

Pinkie and Izzy smiled as they started to sing.

(Back to the tune of 'Chim Chim Cheree' from 'Mary Poppins')

(Pinkie and Izzy)

We wish you luck, oh yes, we do say!

Ten for the quest, and ten to come play!

"You sure, you can do this on your own, Katie?" Sadie asked.

Katie smiled as she hugged Sadie, "I'll be fine. You go on out there."

Topher paused as he said, "Wow, this adventure is going to be really big..."

"Tell me about it..." Discord smirked. "That'll be something to fill up on the new players..."

Pinkie and Izzy paused as they watched everyone and started singing ominously.

(Pinkie and Izzy)

Out where the world is, oh, very cruel,

Our friends are out there, probably having some gruel,

That villain is somewhere, out in this night,

He could be the one, to destroy our light,

Unless the Chosen One wins… boy, what a sight.

(Pause the song)

"Okay, you ten, we wish you luck! Be on your way!" Celestia said as the ten questers started to head down a pathway, as if to get started.

Noah paused as he looked up. "How ironic we begin where I found the triangle..."

"Indeed." Luna said.

"Anyway, on to our challenge," Discord said. "Pinkie, Rainbow, the reason I left you two behind is because you two are the team captains for your teams... I believe they were already selected for you!"

"What, that's all?" Rainbow said.

"Indeed... Pinkie, your team with Izzy, B, Dawn, Noah and Katie, along with Rainbow's team of Bridgette, Ezekiel, Lindsay, Harold and Scott are the teams here for..." Discord gave a smirk..."OUR BIG SCAVENGER HUNT!"

Pinkie gasped in excitement. "OH BOY, a scavenger hunt!"

----------------------

"Okay, here's how it works!" Topher exclaimed, smiling like Chris would...that kinda creeps the players out. "This is basically a scavenger hunt. Pinkie leads her team, Rainbow the other. With help from their team captains, AKA Rainbow Dash and Pinkie Pie, the teams must find items that are scavenged around the Everfree Forest, any random items that Discord happened to have picked up from around Ponyville and cleverly hidden. "

"Ain't no limit 'ta 'de items 'ya git but there's a time limit." Applejack explains, "Near sunset, around four in 'de afternoon. Noon now so y'all got until four o'clock. Then we y'all will call yew in."

"The points of your items depend on what you get and is on your list. The winning team with the most points wins invincibility, meaning every team player will win invincibility, leaving the other team vulnerable." Discord explains with a smirk. "Oh, I did 'accidentally' leave some booby traps in the forest."

"Of course," Noah said dryly.

"And one of the items looks Celestia so make sure to bring it so I can keep it." Twilight said, blushing shyly. "I just want to look at it, put it around my chest again..."

Twilight yelps as she notices the others, even Ben and Celestia, looking at her oddly.

"Err! And hang it on my wall, yes!" Twilight exclaims with a blush of a different meaning.

-------------

Twilight: (annoyed) Thanks to that idiot Cody messing with my dream the other night, I was beginning to have bi fantasies for my teacher! (Pause) You ponies think she and I would...(slaps herself) No! I love Ben, not his mom!

-----------------

"Okay, you may start..." Topher said as he took out a bullhorn...and push the top, causing it to go off loudly. "...NOW!"

Then the two teams zoomed off the instant they heard Topher gave the signal.

"Wait; one more thing!" Discord exclaimed quickly, causing the teams to almost fall. The chimera passes cards to the players, handing each a card. "These cards are of upcoming players from the new season. You can get a co-host to help 'tip the scales' in your favor, but the card can only be played by somebody, once a round. So, say if somebody like Celestia and Luna has a card, Luna can use the card to get the co-host to help her out, but Luna loses the card for the upcoming rounds, and nobody else can play that card..."

"But my sister and I aren't playing. So remember, choose your player wisely." Luna instructed the players. "Now you may go."

The players resume rushing off quickly. Celestia spoke, "I wonder which player will activate his or her own card.

"Let's find out when we monitor the players, shall we?" Luna asked as the hosts look at the monitors.

"Soooooo, princess, you're going out later?" Twilight asked then blushed a bit. "As in hanging out and talk, like 'hanging out, hanging out'; Hee hee hee."

"Darling, you're freaking us out." Rarity said in concern.

---------------

With Rainbow's team, the players continue onward, looking around.

"Remember, Scott, we're working together...so don't try to mess this up for me." Rainbow snapped sternly.

"Yeah, yeah, whatever," Scott remarked, rolling his eyes.

"Remember, you ain't got your statue so one false move and you're at, eh." Ezekiel reminded Scott with a smirk. If the boy tried to cheat again or sabotage, the Royal Sisters won't hesitate in having him eliminated.

"Butt out, Gollum!" Scott snapped in irritation.

"Hey, look!" Harold exclaims with a smile as he points to a cart nearby. "It looks like Big Mac's cart."

"That's 10 points on the list." Rainbow said with a smirk as she looks at the list. "We can use it to load our stuff in!"

"Oooh, this would be like the film 'Scavenger Hunt'." Lindsay exclaims, clapping her hands together. "You know; that film with Richard Mulligan, Vincent Prince, and all those people looking for stuff to win an inheritance."

"Right; Rainbow, you pull. We pick up the items to put into the cart." Bridgette said to Rainbow, making out some sort of plan here.

"Got it, Bridgette," Rainbow said with a nod before she gets herself set up with the cart.

-------------------

Harold: With Rainbow on our side, we got what it takes...though, I am not sure about Scott.

-------------------

Scott: (frowns) this is concerning. Without my statue, I got to be careful or less villainous. Ugh! I haven't been this upset since I was flushed down the toilet.

----------------------------

The team moves onward, then Harold spots something and picks it up, "Oh, look. A poster of Soarin'! Say, why does it got Rainbow's name on it and kiss marks..."

"ERR, NOTHING, NOTHING!" Rainbow yelps as she grabs the poster, rolling it off and throwing the poster into the cart, "Hee hee. Nothing to ask about."

"That would be 6 points." Ezekiel said marking down the item.

----------------------------------------

The ponies who gave up on Total Drama head down a path, looking around.

"Well, we didn't go too far and already I'm freaked out." Sadie said, shivering at the sight around her.

"I know...but we can't give up now." Brick said in agreement. "We just need to stick together."

"And if we run into Tuerto, what then?"

"We just hope that we don't...as well as be hopeful that Tuerto doesn't know the truth now."

"Better check the game very quick." Gwen said as she uses her watch to check on the Total Drama game.

-----------------------------------------

Now Pinkie's group at the moment is doing better. They were picking up some stuff left and right, up and down, even all over.

"Hey, a violin of Octavia's," Katie said as she picks up a violin, looking at the list, "So far, 10 points."

"Well, put it in the cart." Pinkie said playfully as Katie throws her find into the cart. "So how did we do, Noah?"

"We got 30 points of points so far." Noah explains as he looks at the list. "Looks like a good start."

Dawn looks at her card, pondering whatever or not she should use it to call in someone from the next season to give her team an advantage. The girl shrugs and puts it away. No need to do anything just yet.

--------------------------

"Dawn almost made a choice there." Topher said as he looks at the monitor in approval. "I betcha one team is going to use an advantage right now."

"One can only wish." Rarity said as she hands over a snack to Fluttershy who accepts it. "What's Scott doing?"

"Hitting his toe on something," Applejack said, laughing as she looks at the monitor that shows Scott holding his foot, jumping in pain, "Hoo doggy! He's plum hopping mad!"

"Yeah...so uh, Celestia, Tia, Celly..." Twilight said, giggling stupidly to Celestia who looks at her oddly. "Your long mane and tail is doing fine today."

"Uh, yes, thank you, Twilight." Celestia said in concern.

"If I wasn't taken or Ben wasn't your son, we would..."

Twilight yelps, looking awkward as she rushes to a tree and pounds her head a bit. Ben shakes her head in concern.

------------

Ben: Twilight is acting weird ever since Cody messed up her dream the other night. I am worried of our relationship right now.

--------

Twilight: (sighs lovingly) The princess is so pretty...she makes my hear...(yelps and pounds her head on the side) Ugh! Blast you, Cody! I am beginning to think that I'm Bi now!

----------

Back in the game, Scott was cutting a stick with a wood, looking bored as the others kept on searching. The boy wasn't paying attention...when a familiar voice spoke.

"Excuse me, Scott? Remember me?" A familiar voice spoke, making Scott yelps as he turns to see a shadowy figure hiding near a tree.

"Hang on. You're the guy who gave...err, I don't know what you mean." Scott said quickly, trying to pretend not to know him out of concern that the one who gave him the gloves to help throw suspicion right onto Lightning the other day may or may not know. "Have we met?"

"Don't play me for a fool, Scott. I know who you and your players were...and still are. You owe me for giving you those gloves, remember?"

Scott yelps a bit. Yes, he did hope the stranger a favor for giving him the gloves...and the villain has forgotten about it until now.

"Okay, fine. You caught me...so what do you want?" Scott asks the figure with a frown.

"Simply put. My allies and I are planning to team up with a new friend once we find him...and help the pony is giving him what he wants." The figure explains darkly. "You are to report any information to me considering that...'eye'."

"Wait, so you know of Tuerto?!"

"Indeed, we had. And if you or your pals were to find the eye, tell us at once...and in return, I will make sure you make it to the end of the game without eliminations. And no worries, no one is watching us right now. Is it a deal?"

Scott pauses to think. Teaming up with evil individuals to help a mad killer psychopath of a pony from centuries past sounds like treachery...but then again, getting a billion dollars and winning sounds like a fun deal to him. Besides, no one in the game are his friends so why bother feeling sorry for him?

Scott smirks sinisterly as he said, "Deal. Just make sure no one sees me cheating as well."

The figure, Shadow Dragon, smirks in the darkness as he said, "Good..."

------------------

Scott then made his way back to his team as Bridgette was putting something in the cart.

"And here we go... forty more points..." Bridgette said.

"Oh yeah; we totally have a lead!" Ezekiel smiled.

-----------------------------------------

Ezekiel: It takes more than two to find items, eh! It's really fun!

------------------------------------------

"So, any luck so far?" Harold asked as he picked up something...

Scott paused as he looked at the card he was provided... on the card, were printed faces of a new face, one of them being Topher's. Scott then smirked, getting an idea. Scott then raised the card as he pointed his finger towards Topher's face.

-----------------------------------------------

Topher raised an eyebrow. "Interesting... seems Scott wants to use his power play a little early!"

"Okay, Topher... you know what to do..." Celestia said as she used her horn and teleported Topher off...

---------------------------------------------

Just like that, Topher suddenly appeared as he asked, "So, what can I do for you, Scott-y boy?"

"Well... you think you can get the other teams' items and put them to OUR cart?" Scott asked.

"Hmmmm..." Topher paused. "A little low... but I like it! I'll see what I can do!"

Topher then disappeared as the card vanished in Scott's hands.

Then, a microphone was heard as everyone heard, "Attention please. One card has been used, so until the next round, the cards are considered invalid. You also may not use Topher as your choice should the chance come by again!"

--------------------------------------------------

Harold: Well, this is a shock... wonder what's going to happen now... hopefully, it gives us an advantage or puts us on a disadvantage...

-------------------------------------------------

With Pinkie's team, as she and Izzy were riding the cart B was dragging... all of a sudden, everything in the cart was starting to disappear.

"Huh?" Pinkie asked as Izzy frowned.

"Oh no, you don't!" Izzy frowned as she tried to grab an item, but as she did, she suddenly vanished, Pinkie grabbed Izzy, but she disappeared too.

Noah, Katie, B, and Dawn suddenly jumped as the cart then disappeared.

"OUR ITEMS," B said.

---------------------------------------------

Dawn: (groans) I should have used the card when I had the chance... next time...

-----------------------------------------------

"Well, that was a bust!" Katie groaned as Noah comforted her.

B frowned as he looked around. "Something tells me Scott or one of the others was behind this..."

"Scott, no doubt," Noah frowned.

-----------------------------------------------------

Noah: (sighs) Great, now we don't have our items, and anything we're going to grab, it'll just teleport over to their side! And the worst part is, it's official, so we can't do anything about it, unless it's like for an hour or something!

--------------------------------------------------------

As Katie grabbed a small torch that was lying around, Katie yelped as she disappeared.

"KATIE!" Noah yelped as he noticed Katie had disappeared with the torch.

"Well... this is rather awkward." B gulped.

"B, I don't think it's safe for us to grab any of these items..." Noah started as Dawn grabbed a wagon... and then disappeared. "Well, there goes the other girl."

"Should we go after them?" B asked.

"Well, we can't have them gallaventing around like kangaroos, can we?" Noah asked as he went to grab a nearby item.

-------------------------------------------------------------------

Noah: Yeah, Scott, you're going to pay for this!

-----------------------------------------------------------------

Meanwhile, somewhere inside a small area, we see Pinkie and Izzy appearing as the two seemed to have let go of the item they had... as for the item, it went straight to Team Rainbow Dash's bag.

"Well, that was a bust." Pinkie sighed.

"Hey, where are we?" Izzy asked off in not knowing where they landed in.

"Oh, this looks like the cave where the Mirror Pool is! Just... over there," Pinkie Pie spoke off in recognizing this place.

Soon the two random members have reached an open clear light spot where they see a pool. To many of us, this was where Pinkie Pie used this to clone herself long ago. The pink pony explained to Izzy about her tale of going through this, and that might not have been the best idea.

"Let's have some fun, I've always wanted more me types that know what I'm thinking about." Izzy insisted to her pal in what they can do here.

"I don't know, last time, my clones caused problems!" Pinkie Pie spoke with doubt about this from what happen before.

"Come on, we just gotta give them discipline to get them to stand in line. Military generals do that all the time to get large soldiers in line and not be chaotic." Izzy insisted that they just keep their clones in line, and they know who the real prime original is to the clone bunch.

"Well... okay!" Pinkie Pie felt unsure, but got suckered in this manipulated ploy. "What could possibly go wrong with a plan like this?"

And as Pinkie shows Izzy the routine ropes, and soon... the unseen event has started.

----------------------------------------------------

Izzy: (giggles) This is going to be fun!

-------------------------------------------------------

Meanwhile, back in Castle Canterlot, we see Chris sighing as he was looking at a photo, and looking down. Chef came in as Chris put the photo to the side.

"Chris, come on! This isn't like you!" Chef frowned.

"What is like me? That sadistic asshole the producers turned me into? The one that preferred money rather than love," Chris sighed. "I blew it, man... I really blew it."

Chef paused as he looked at the host that looked like he lost all hope, "Chris, are you telling me that... you were really in love with Blaineley?"

"Once... a long time ago... but now it seems everything was all for naught." Chris frowned.

"Seems you never really cared for her before," Chef frowned.

"That was because I had some cred to keep." Chris said. "I mean, you and I, ever since we met for the show, you were a blast!"

"I was, wasn't I?" Chef smirked.

"Oh, you were..." Chris laughed a little... but sighed. "Why did I take the solo host job? Why couldn't I have just said no? Am I really heartless?"

"Chris..." Chef started.

"Just, go to the game without me... I want to be alone." Chris said.

Chef started... then sighed as he walked off. "All right man... but if you want to talk... I'm here."

Chef then started to walk off as he started to teleport. Meanwhile, at the same time, another portal opened up as nineteen familiar contestants came out.

"Well, this must be it." Geoff said as he sat down.

"Looks like it." Josh nodded. "At least the princesses decided to allow us twenty-four seven access outside the game... as long as we confine to stay in the castle and try to help in any way with the eye in terms of research, we're golden..."

"I don't get why YOU'RE following us!" Beth frowned as she turned to see Alejandro.

"Isn't it obvious at this point?" Alejandro frowned.

"Heather's boyfriend," Everyone rolled their eyes.

Then, they all heard a sad noise coming from the door.

"That sounded like Chris in there!" Tyler said.

"Should we even care for him at this rate?" Jo asked. "I mean, he never really liked us, and we never liked him in the first place!"

"Regardless, he did try to help us, even if it was wrong..." Mike said.

Zoey nodded. "One of us has to go and talk with Chris for a while..."

Everyone paused as Geoff sighed. "Fine, I'll do it. But I'm probably going to regret this..."

------------------------------------------------------------------

Meanwhile, back with Rainbow Dash's group, Rainbow Dash smiled as Lindsay found Rarity's tea set and put it in the cart. "Wow, with all these new items we've been getting, we're totally racking up the points!"

"YAY," Lindsay giggled. "And I'm glad we didn't have to do anything!"

---------------------------------------------------------------------

Lindsay: I may have Bridgette on my team, but with Dawn, Katie and Izzy working together, I have a feeling they have found better items than we have... I wonder how they're doing...

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

Meanwhile, out in the forest, Dawn was busy comforting Katie as she was shaking. "It's okay, Katie, Noah and B will come find us..."

All of a sudden, Noah appeared in front of Dawn and Katie as the two jumped in surprise. Noah gave a smile in relief as he hugged Katie, "Everything okay, Katie?"

"It's all fine now that you've found me, Noah Boa!" Katie smiled.

--------------------------------------------------

Katie: I was so scared that I got separated from my group, but now... now I'm feeling a lot better that Noah is with me!

------------------------------------------------

All of a sudden, B then appeared, making the girls jump as B smiled. "There you girls are! I thought you left us!"

"We didn't mean to." Dawn sighed.

"Well, no harm done, then." B smiled as Dawn hugged him.

-----------------------------------------------

B: I'm just happy to see that Dawn is perfectly safe and well.

------------------------------------------------

Katie looked around and smiled. "You know, I think this is what people call a fortunate circumstance! Maybe Izzy and Pinkie haven't wandered too far off the path!"

"Maybe..." B said as he, Dawn and Noah turned towards the endless jungle. "Sure seems like a nice jungle, just waiting to be explored."

"Why not, Noah," Katie asked as she snuggled close to Noah.

Noah just blushed a bit as Dawn said, "I wouldn't mind taking a nice walk."

-------------------------------------------

Noah: I can't believe that me and Katie and B and Dawn planned a double date during a challenge which we're supposed to be doing... but hey, I can't say no to my Katie Kat!

----------------------------------------------

"Well, if we must, we must!" Noah smiled as he took Katie by the hand, B taking Dawn by the hand as well. "Just behave yourself, okay?"

"Oh, I always behave!" Katie giggled as she leaned towards Noah, Noah gave a quick blush.

"Let's go!" Dawn proclaimed as the couples started to walk together towards the end of the forests.

----------------------------------------------------------------

Back with Bridgette and Ezekiel, Bridgette was seen talking with Ezekiel as she asked, "Hey, Zeke, if you can, could you maybe help my alliance out when the time is right? I could use someone like you to help us out in protecting Scott."

Ezekiel smiled as he gave Bridgette a pat on the back, "For you, Bridge, I'll do it!"

"Thank you, Zeke!" Bridgette smiled as she hugged and kissed Ezekiel on the cheek, Ezekiel blushing again.

----------------------------------------------------------------

Bridgette: Those kisses on the cheek are terms of sibling-like relationships to Ezekiel, not romantic, so get your head out of the gutters!

--------------------------------------------------------------

Ezekiel: (keeps rubbing his cheek) It's nice Bridgette is giving me these kisses on the cheek, but I'm sure they're more sister-like than anything... to be truthful, I'm still waiting for the right girl...

----------------------------------------------------------------

A little unknown to the two, Scott gave a big smirk when he saw Bridgette and Ezekiel talking.

--------------------------------------------------------------

Scott: So, a little bird tells me that Bridgette plans to get Ezekiel to spy on me... (Smirks) Well, little Bridge, it may not be this round, but in some round, I'm going to make sure that you and Ezekiel are in the biggest lip-lock of your life! (Chuckles maliciously)

-----------------------------------------------------------

We later see Lindsay and Harold getting more items for the cart as they put them in. Rainbow smiled as she said, "You guys are doing great! If we can get this kept up, maybe we can get this done!"

"You know, Rainbow, you'd do pretty good at this game!" Lindsay smiled.

"Ha! Maybe in another life, and maybe if I'm one of the villains," Rainbow laughed... then paused. "I... hope I don't manipulate in that other life... right?"

------------------------------------------------

Rainbow: If I ever do a game similar to this in another life... I really hope I don't get the idea of becoming a villain... though it does sound tempting...

-------------------------------------------------

Meanwhile, back with the two couples walking together, they were seen walking throughout the forest as they looked around in interest. Katie smiled a little as she saw some trees that looked similar to chimneys. Katie then peeked into a chimney shaped tree as she called, "Hello there!"

Then some sap from the tree popped out and was slapped on Katie's face as she was seen squinting.

"Don't worry, Katie." Noah chuckle a little as he handed her a small handkerchief. "It's just a bit of sap."

--------------------------------------------------

Katie: (wiping the sap off) If I ever win, I'm going to share some of the winnings with Noah. He's just so sweet!

-------------------------------------------------

B and Dawn waited as Noah and Katie caught up to the two as Noah asked, "End of the line?"

"Not at all," Dawn said as the four kept marching on until they reached a backside of the cliff. Dawn then closed her eyes for a slight moment, before opening them to reveal they were completely white. Noah and Katie just stared in amazement as objects started to lift around Dawn as they started to form stairs to the top. Dawn nodded as she took B's hand and they started going up. Noah and Katie, recovering from this amazing feat that Dawn had shown off, followed B and Dawn until they reached the top of the cliff as they sat down.

Katie gasped as the four looked over the sight. "Wow... this is so cool... the whole world at our feet..."

"Indeed." Dawn smiled. "The Everfree Forest... Ponyville... looks like Castle Canterlot is there from a distance..."

"Look below!" Noah pointed over to the left as he saw ten familiar people walking from below. "Looks like our fellow friends are following the path as we speak."

"Wow." Katie said as she, Dawn and B looked over to see the ten people. "I wonder what they're all thinking right now..."

"Maybe that it's their job... as well as ours... to find the eye and destroy it, no matter what," B theorized.

"Well, unless we could find this Chosen One, but who knows where he or she is?" Noah shrugged.

"Well, they deserve it. They should travel safe..." Dawn smiled.

Noah nodded as the four stared, watching the ten people going on their own way, determined to get the quest done. Noah turned to B, Dawn and Katie, "We should probably be getting back... who knows what Izzy and Pinkie are doing..."

"No worries, Noah." Dawn said as she closed her eyes and concentrated to make a platform appear. "I've got their auras, and I can pinpoint their location."

"Great!" Noah smiled as he took Katie's hand and took her into the platform as B did the same with Dawn. "Let's go find them and we can maybe get our challenge done."

------------------------------------------------------------

Dawn: It was nice being with B, and Noah and Katie... best, quiet double date we ever had.

-----------------------------------------------------------

As B and Dawn slowly gave a kiss to each other as the platform started to go, Noah and Katie looked back as they saw the ten people that were questing still moving on... Katie smiling, "Sadie, good luck."

(For the last time, to the tune of 'Chim Chim Cheree' from 'Mary Poppins')

(Katie)

Good luck to all, good luck to all, good luck to us all,

We will be sure one of us don’t take the bus,

(Noah)

We are a team, no matter what the cause,

(Noah and Katie)

And we won’t take a small dip in the sauce,

Good luck to all of us, we must win against this boss...

-------------------------------------------------------

Back with Rainbow's team, Bridgette and Ezekiel smiled as they managed to put in a few more items in the cart. Rainbow smiled. "I think we got over a thousand points, but I don't know how long until Pinkie's team will recover..."

Scott smirked a little.

---------------------------------------------------------

Scott: What? What I technically did WAS in the rules!

--------------------------------------------------------

Back at the monitors, as Chef arrived, Celestia paused as he said, "Well, he did get us there..."

"Well, it seems to be a lot of fun!" Topher said as Fluttershy was trying to tap into the screens.

"I've seemed to lost Pinkie's team..." Fluttershy said.

"Don't worry. Pinkie'll find her way back to the cameras." Twilight smiled. "I'm sure of it!"

-------------------------------------------------------

Meanwhile, back with Noah, Katie, B and Dawn, the four had just arrived to a nearby place where Dawn had sensed Pinkie and Izzy's auras.

Noah then looked ahead as he jumped in shock. "Uh, hey guys, I found them! But you are NOT gonna believe this!" Noah spoke off to tell the others he found who they were looking for with a bizarre expression.

"What is it Noah, what..." Katie almost said until she stopped at that moment.

Soon when the group caught up to finally located Pinkie Pie and Izzy, they didn't just find them, they also found... CLONES OF THEM! And just to tell apart the real ones from the clones, Izzy and Pinkie Pie wore an outfit that had badges saying 'REAL IZZY' & 'REAL PINKIE PIE' on them and wore funny hats.

"Oh my God..." B, Dawn, Noah and Katie groaned as two Izzys and two Pinkies were waving hello to them.

"Okay, I did NOT see this coming!" B spoke off in being stumped... surprised at what they are seeing.

"I almost wonder if our hosts did," Dawn asked.

"Maybe... I'm not sure..." Noah said.

"Hi, guys!" Pinkie smiled. "You're just about to join us for our round!"

Alright, ready to do this Pinkie Pie?" Izzy spoke off to her pal in seeing it's time for them to begin.

"Right, let's do our own version of 'Step In Time' from Mary Poppins!" Pinkie Pie smiled off to say this in what they’ll do... it’s time to sing!

"Step In Time!" Izzy shouted off to the crowds.

"Step In Time!" Pinkie Pie also shouted this off to anyone listening.

"Step In Time!/Step In Time!/Step In Time!" One Pinkie clone, then three Pinkie clones, then five Izzy clones shouted out while popping around the spot.

"Step In Time!" Pinkie Pie and Izzy sang off together in seeing what it’s time to do here.

"Step In Time!" Pinkie Pie pointed to one section to make her clones appear.

"Step In Time!" Izzy pointed to another section to make her clones.

"Come on, everybody, Step In Time!" Pinkie and Izzy said as they did some motions.

"Step In Time!" The Pinkie and Izzy clones did the exact same thing.

(To the tune of 'Step in Time' from 'Mary Poppins')

(Pinkie and Izzy clones)

Step In Time,

Step In Time,

Step In Time,

Step In Time,

Never need a reason,

Never need a rhyme,

Step in Time, you step in time!

"Kick your knees up!" Pinkie called as she, Izzy and the clones did the same motions.

Kick your knees up,

Step In Time,

Kick your knees up,

Step In Time,

Never need a reason,

Never need a rhyme,

Kick your knees up, Step In Time!

"Round the trees," Izzy called as she and Pinkie stepped towards Noah, Katie, B and Dawn as they decided to sit down and watch, the clones running around the trees.

Round the trees,

Step In Time,

Round the trees,

Step In Time,

Never need a reason,

Never need a rhyme,

Round the trees, Step In Time!

"Flap like a birdie!" Pinkie called as the clones were doing the same action, Noah tapping his foot to the beat.

Flap like a birdie,

Step In Time,

Flap like a birdie,

Step In Time,

Never need a reason,

Never need a rhyme,

Flap like a birdie, Step In Time!

"Climb the trees!" Izzy ordered as the clones started to obey the order.

Climb the trees,

Step In Time,

Climb the trees,

Step In Time,

Never need a reason,

Never need a rhyme

Climb the trees, step in time!

"Jump to the ground!" Pinkie ordered as the clones started doing so.

Jump to the ground,

Step In Time,

Jump to the ground,

Step In Time,

Never need a reason,

Never need a rhyme,

Step in Time!

"Jump to the ground, jump to the ground!" The Pinkie and Izzy clones chanted as B, Dawn, Noah and Katie watched in interest.

"LINK YOUR ELBOWS!" Izzy called as the clones started doing so, grabbing Pinkie and Izzy for the ride.

Link your elbows,

Step In Time,

Link your elbows,

Step In Time,

Link your elbows, link your elbows,

Link your elbows!

Izzy and Pinkie yelped as they nearly went out of the boundaries of the film strip, but they climbed back in as they jumped next to B, Dawn, Noah and Katie as they smiled.

Step In Time,

Step In Time,

Step In Time,

Step In Time,

Never need a reason,

Never need a rhyme,

Step in Time, you step in time!

And with that, the biggest dance party with the clones had just begun... in fact, B, Dawn, Katie and Noah were enjoying it, they didn't hear the announcement that they only had an hour left until it was time for them to go in and bring the items.

-------------------------------------------------------------------

"Well, that should keep them busy." Topher said as he turned off the microphone. "So, anyway, Chef, I'm wondering, how much does Chris usually get for the job?"

Chef paused as he said, "Well... I'd say, he does the job for hourly rate, plus cover materials, plus overtime, plus 10 percent."

"And the estimate," Topher asked.

"Hm; nope, can't do an estimate! Too risky," Chef frowned. "Why are you so interested in Chris' pay?"

"Well, I like him as a host, but let's face it; he's getting in his years." Topher smiled.

"He's only thirty!" Chef frowned. "Well, maybe a little over thirty, but... blast it all..."

Topher smiled. "Hey, that's not a bad idea for a little challenge! Throw some dynamite and keep things off track!"

"On it," Discord smiled as he snapped his fingers and dynamite started to appear in his hands. "I can probably do it for Rainbow's team... but I can't find Pinkie's team. Oh well, as soon as they show..."

"So, what's the charge?" Topher asked.

"The charge," Discord raised an eyebrow. "I'd say about seven sticks of dynamite."

"No, no, I mean, how much am I going to get paid for this episode, being temporary host?" Topher asked.

Celestia paused. "Oh, wait, you wanted money? No, we don't do payments in Equestria. Discord, Chef, Chris, Luna and I all agreed this is strictly volunteer work... no payments."

"Wait... you don't do payments?" Topher's eyes widened. "I should think..."

"No need to think!" Celestia said. "Regardless, this is strictly volunteer work. I'm sure if it was the actual seasons on the show, you'd probably get paid..."

"This sucks." Topher sighed.

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Meanwhile, back with Chris, he sighed as he got up and started to walk towards the fridge to see what type of sodas there were, just to slurp them loudly in depression.

"Yo, Chris."

Chris yelped as he turned to see Geoff walking in, sighing. Chris frowned, "What are you doing here? Shouldn't you be in some other world?"

"You only dropped us off in what we dub the 'Equestria Girl' universe." Geoff sighed. "Anyway, the princesses summoned all of us here to help out when we need it."

"Chef," Chris called, "HELP!"

"He knows we're here!" Geoff sighed. "Everybody does. Look, I don't like you, you don't like me, but I have to talk to you, so what is up?"

"I guess everything is going wrong today!" Chris sighed. "I used to be such a nice guy, but I'm still a bit of a jerk, while doing so... but my greed, my greed cost me... it costed me a girlfriend, and it costed my entire life."

"And yet, you still want to act like a jerk." Geoff sighed. "You know, you'd think you'd show us and the princesses a little more respect, considering she lets you volunteer this show."

"Volunteer?" Chris frowned. "This isn't a volunteer service!"

"True on the impact of the contestants..." Geoff frowned, "...but not true on the other end. Celestia, Discord and Luna allowed you to do a season without pay. That's volunteer work! Okay? Anyway, you're not a good host. You're a horrible person."

"Why am I a horrible person?" Chris asked.

"Let me answer that question with a question." Geoff said as he ate some grapes. "How many friends do you have besides Chef and maybe Blaineley?"

"Let me think..." Chris said as he started to munch on some grapes as well. "You guys?"

"We're not exactly your friends." Geoff frowned.

"All right..." Chris paused. "There is that guy that helps out with the challenges, and we usually hang out by the pool at the mansion. I think his name is Daniel or Larry..."

Geoff stared in shock. "Are you talking about the intern that you always hire to do dangerous stunts to make sure the challenges are ‘safe’; Billy the Intern?"

Chris nodded.

Geoff frowned. "You're kidding yourself, dude. Chef and Blaineley are your only friends... maybe not Blaineley anymore, so Chef is your only friend. If you're not careful, soon, you'll have no friends."

"Friends," Chris scoffed. "Who needs them?"

"I'll tell you who... someone with no girlfriend, one job, lots of credit, a few hobbies, makes teenagers do dangerous stunts..." Geoff said.

"Wait. I think I know someone like that." Chris paused. "...Billy the Intern?"

"No, you idiot! It's you!" Geoff frowned. "Chris, you're letting the whole Tuerto thing get to you, as well as your past with Blaineley and how you upset her! But give Blaineley some time... I'm sure eventually, she'll come back."

"But what do I do?" Chris sighed. "I don't want anyone to die, but..."

"You've got to try harder to be yourself... and maybe be a better host!" Geoff frowned.

"Like, how much harder?" Chris asked, "Two percent?"

Geoff frowned and shook his head.,"A little more."

"Five percent," Chris asked.

"More than that," Geoff frowned.

"SEVEN PERCENT," Chris gasped. "You're out of your mind!"

"No!" Geoff said. "You have to give one hundred percent effort!"

"What?" Chris said in shock. "No one can give a hundred percent! It's physically impossible!"

"Well, Chris, you have to dig deep!" Geoff said. "You got to go to the place inside you where you've never been."

"My soul," Chris asked.

Geoff frowned. "You need to have a soul in order to go there. No, no, no. I'm talking about in here."

Geoff then pointed to Chris' heart as Chris looked down. "Now, Chris, I want you to try!"

Chris paused as he shut his eyes and shook. "That's good enough, right?"

Geoff slapped Chris. "No. Look at me. You can do this. Now, try."

Chris took a deep breath as he shook.

Geoff called, "HARDER!"

"It hurts!" Chris shook.

"HARDER!" Geoff yelled.

"I'm dying!" Chris screamed as he was really shaking.

"No, you're trying!" Geoff smiled... then yelped as he noticed Chris standing up and bashing his head in.

Chris then gave a big smile as he said, "I'm going to be the best host that any contestant has ever had!"

Chris smiled. "I'm back, and I'm better than ever, baby! Okay, Geoff, where are they?"

"Everfree Forest, I guess..." Geoff squeaked.

"Thank you!" Chris said as he started to run off.

Geoff gulped as he said, "What have I done?"

-----------------------------------------------------------------

Back with Rainbow Dash's team, we see Bridgette, Ezekiel, Lindsay, Harold and Scott working really hard in gathering the items for the cart... when all of a sudden, it started raining dynamite.

"Hey!" Rainbow yelped as she, Bridgette and Lindsay were trying to protect the items.

"Must be some of Discord's doing," Harold frowned.

-------------------------------------------------

Harold: This is getting REALLY out of hand! Luckily, we only have an hour left, so we need to get these items protected... who knows how many items the other team has!

----------------------------------------------------

Meanwhile, back with Pinkie's group, Pinkie and Izzy's clones were doing a great dance party as Noah's foot kept tapping to the beat. The Pinkie and Izzy clones were so busy dancing around on the trees as Noah, Katie, B and Dawn watched with pure interest, skipping around the forest, jumping from one tree to another, and then dancing on the leaves. The four then clapped as Pinkie and Izzy gathered the group of clones nearby as Izzy and Pinkie turned towards the group as Izzy and Pinkie, along with their clones, did some motions.

Izzy then grabbed Dawn as she said, "Dawn Medrek, step in Time!"

Dawn smiled as she followed along Izzy's dance moves as the Pinkie and Izzy clones were voicing her support, each clone taking their turns dancing with Dawn until she started doing a Scottish like dance as Pinkie, Izzy and their clones started following along.

Dawn then did a small spin as the clones followed her moves, one of the Izzy clones saying, "Ain't she marvelous?"

"Ain't she beautiful?" A Pinkie clone said as Dawn did a double spin, with Pinkie and Izzy clones doing the same move.

All of a sudden, much to the clones, along with the real Pinkie and Izzy's surprise, with a lot of surprise from B, Noah and Katie, Dawn then did a multiple spin by spinning herself in a circle in the air, and then landed. Dawn then smirked as she sat back with her friends.

"More, Dawn! More! Do that again!" The Pinkie and the Izzy clones started before Dawn raised her hand up, indicating 'That's enough'.

---------------------------------------------------------

B: Damn, does Dawn know dancing or what? If she had shown that off back in her younger days at school, everybody would have immediately regretted teasing her!

------------------------------------------------------------

The Pinkie and Izzy clones then resumed their dance party by doing backflips, with a Pinkie and Izzy clone dancing atop the trees, Scottish-style as every Izzy and Pinkie clone grabbed a small stick.

Dawn, B, Noah and Katie then clapped as the real Izzy and real Pinkie Pie nodded, the real Izzy saying, "Here we go!"

Izzy and Pinkie then whistled to their clones as they started walking up the trees and up on some railings as B, Dawn, Noah and Katie watched with anticipation. After a few minutes of balancing with the Izzy and Pinkie clones, they managed to dance on the railings of the trees just fine. They then jumped off the rails as they started balancing on some branches on the trees.

They then united back where B, Dawn, Noah and Katie were as they started waddling like penguins, then more dancing with the canes they had summoned from out of nowhere. It seemed everybody was having the most excited fun of their lives...

-----------------------------------------------------------

Meanwhile, far away from the game, Heather, Gwen, Trent, Leshawna, Brick, Cody, Eva, Sam, Sierra and Sadie had arrived at a branching path, which Cody found eerily familiar...

"I swear, I've been here before..." Cody paused.

"Well, according to the book, this is where the path splits." Brick said as he pointed to the two splitting paths. "The left side will take us to an easy path, and the right side is the harder path. So, how do you propose we do this?"

Leshawna then snapped her fingers. "How about we separate into two groups of five and split up? That way, we can cover more ground, and if either path leads us to the eye, we'll be one step closer!"

Sadie smiled. "That sounds good!"

Brick nodded. "A wise decision, Leshawna."

"Anyway, it's getting late as it is. We'll stop here for now, and we'll resume our journey tomorrow." Brick said.

"Hopefully, the eye is on either path... at least one path is right!" Heather nodded.

Cody nodded as he paused, looking around. "I swear to God, I know I was here before..."

As everybody was setting up camp... little did any of them realize was that up on the trees where the separated paths were... there were two nests... each containing a sleeping baby phoenix... one of whom just happened to be awake when he looked down.

The young phoenix then pulled out a walkie talkie as he whispered, "This is Twacy. The eye finders are here. Are both paths weady with obstacles?"

"The hard path has been littered with the puzzles... and the easy path is littered with us, the true Welara Followers!" A voice said.

"Gweat. When each team comes, twy to keep them busy; they must not locate that eye!" The baby phoenix said. "I'll be keeping my watch on them."

"Right..." The voice said as it came off. The baby phoenix nodded as he looked down as everyone was setting camp.

The baby phoenix sighed as he said, "You have no idea what's to come... and when you figure out the twue story of the eye... oh, will you be scawed..."

---------------------------------------------------------------------------

Meanwhile, the Superior was sighing in frustration as Shadow Dragon appeared.

"How's the search for Tuerto going?" Shadow Dragon asked.

"Not so good." The Superior frowned. "Every time I get a pin-point location on him, by the time I send my men to that place, he's just... gone!"

"Well, this pony is a deteminator. What do you expect?" Shadow Dragon frowned... when all of a sudden they started to feel some shaking on the ground. "Hey, wh-what's going on up there?"

The Superior frowned as he turned the channels... and saw a lot of Pinkie Pies and Izzys dancing around. The Superior's eyes widened for the first time in his life. "OH MY CELESTIA, WE'RE BEING INVADED BY PINK AND GREEN ALIENS!"

"...They're just clones of that pink pony and the green wearing human." Shadow Dragon frowned.

"They're pink and green aliens. Shut up." The Superior said. "Shadow Dragon, round the fire cannons! THE PINK AND GREEN ALIENS WILL NOT INVADE!"

"...What is WRONG with you?" Shadow Dragon asked.

"I don't know... something is kind of affecting me!" The Superior said. "Just get the cannons!"

"Right," Shadow Dragon said.

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------

"This is certainly a fun party!" Dawn said.

"Yeah, but Pinkie and Izzy DO know that with the clones here, there's going to be trouble." Noah said.

"Yeah, and the challenge..." Katie paused... then the four yelped.

"THE CHALLENGE," The four screamed.

"How much time do we have left?" Dawn asked.

B looked at the watch. "Five minutes!"

Noah groaned. "Oh, this isn't enough time to find anything... we'll just have to accept our fate and hope this is a non-elimination."

"What makes you think it's a non-elimination?" Katie asked.

"It has to be... we haven't had one yet!" Noah said.

-----------------------------------------------------------------

Katie: Oh my... we wasted our time... I mean, our dates were great, and the party was awesome... but yes, at this point, we need to hope for a non-elimination challenge...

-----------------------------------------------------------------

From nearby, the Superior and Shadow Dragon had appeared, cannons armed and ready. "Stand by; FIRE!"

Shadow Dragon lit the cannon as it started to blast fireworks into the sky, causing the Pinkie and Izzy clones to jump.

------------------------------------------------------------------

Izzy: Whoa, I love those fireworks!

-----------------------------------------------------------------

Back with Rainbow Dash's team, they were just collecting their last item, which was a Celestia stuffed animal, when they saw the fireworks.

"Whoa!" Bridgette paused as they looked up, "Must be a celebration for finding Twilight's Celestia stuffed toy."

"Wow..." Ezekiel said.

----------------------------------------------------------------

Ezekiel: Those fireworks look so beautiful...

--------------------------------------------------------------------

"Okay, folks, time is up! We'll be summoning portals nearby your areas... wherever you are... so you guys have an instant shortcut back to the finish!" Celestia's voice called. "We'll be judging your items and see how much you've collected! We'll see you there!"

Instantly like that, a portal appeared next to Rainbow, Bridgette, Ezekiel, Lindsay, Harold and Scott as the five nodded. They seemed to be ready as they started to head out.

"I wonder if Noah, Katie, B, Dawn and Izzy are seeing these fireworks." Bridgette smiled.

-----------------------------------------------------------

"DUCK," Noah, Katie, B and Dawn yelped as they ducked some incoming fireworks as the Pinkies and Izzys started to run around, the real Pinkie and Izzy noticing a portal nearby.

"Everyone, into the portal," Pinkie ordered.

-------------------------------------------------------------

"FIRE," The Superior roared as Shadow Dragon sent in another round.

The real Izzy then used her cane to whack the firework back.

The Superior laughed. "Well hit, ma'am! Very well hit!"

He and Shadow Dragon then yelped as they ducked the firework.

-----------------------------------------------------

"Come on, come on, we'll continue our fun elsewhere!" The real Pinkie said as the Pinkie and Izzy clones started to run in the portal.

----------------------------------------------------

Noah: ...We are so in trouble...

-----------------------------------------------------

Back with Celestia, Luna, Discord, Chef, Topher, Ben, Twilight, Fluttershy, Applejack and Rarity, they noticed Rainbow Dash's team coming in with an assortment of items.

"Say!" Twilight smiled as the Celestia stuffed animal came towards her. "Thanks, guys!"

"Don't mention it." Rainbow smirked.

"Though... I fear what items that Pinkie's team has got in comparison." Bridgette said.

"Trust me, they won't have a lot." Scott smirked.

"Why?" Lindsay asked, half furious at him, half curious.

"I used my card to get Topher to transfer their items to our cart for about an hour, so any item they touched or have had, they went straight to ours!" Scott smirked. "And before you call shenanigans, it was the card, and it was technically 'help'."

"Sorry to say, but Scott is actually right." Celestia said.

"Anyway, Pinkie's team has to be coming in... we lost track of them a couple of hours ago, hope they're all right..." Twilight said.

---------------------------------------------------------

Rarity: Why do I have a feeling something bad is about to occur?

---------------------------------------------------------

As Discord and Topher left to do some business, counting the items, Celestia, Luna, Chef, Twilight, Rarity, Applejack, Fluttershy, Rainbow, Bridgette, Scott, Lindsay, Harold and Ezekiel turned towards the portal to where Pinkie's group was supposed to come out.

All of a sudden, to their shock... about a TON of Pinkie and Izzy clones started running out as they started to resume their dance party.

Celestia, Luna and Chef jumped as Applejack's eyes widened. "What the-"

Bridgette, Lindsay, Ezekiel and Harold's eyes widened as Fluttershy and Rarity screamed.

Twilight's eyes widened and yelled, "AHH! PINKIE USED THE MIRROR POOL AGAIN, AND SHE BROUGHT IZZY TOO!"

(Pinkie and Izzy clones)

Pinkie used the Mirror Pool again and she brought Izzy too,

Step In Time!

Pinkie used the Mirror Pool again and she brought Izzy too,

Step In Time!

As each Pinkie and Izzy clone started grabbing the waiting party and started to forcefully dance with them, Twilight was struggling out of a dancing Izzy's grasp as B, Dawn, Noah and Katie came out of the portal as the four were nervously chuckling.

-and she brought Izzy too,

Step In Time!

The real Pinkie and the real Izzy then came out of the portal laughing as Noah, Katie, B and Dawn were shaking...

---------------------------------------------

Noah: We...

-------------------------------------------

Katie: ...are in...

---------------------------------------------

B: ...so much...

----------------------------------------------

Dawn: ...trouble.

-----------------------------------------------------

"HELP ME!" Scott screamed.

Help me!

Step In Time!

Help me!

Step In Time!

Never need a reason,

Never need a rhyme,

Help me! Step In Time!

Scott was seen screaming as he was being forcefully danced as Rarity screamed, "THIS ISN'T FUNNY!"

This isn't funny,

Step In Time!

This isn't funny,

Step In Time!

Never need a reason,

Never need a rhyme,

This isn't funny, Step In Time!

As everyone was being forcefully danced around with, Discord and Topher then appeared back with the list of items that Rainbow's team gave them... and Discord and Topher were not even noticing the chaos at first.

"Well, it seems Rainbow's team has..." Discord paused as he and Topher noticed four Izzy and Pinkie clones dancing around Topher as they noticed Topher was wearing a shirt with lettering.

[ui]New season contestant,

Step In Time!

New season contestant,

Step In Time!

"Well, the new season doesn't really start until... actually I don't know, but..." Topher blushed as the Izzy and Pinkie clones carried him and Discord to the center.

New season contestant!

Discord and Topher smiled as they cheered, "NEW SEASON CONTESTANT!"

Discord and Topher then naturally joined in the dance party, having the most wonderful time of their lives.

----------------------------------------------------------

Chris then looked over the fellow contestants as Geoff groaned, "Well, contestants, thanks to your friend here, I'm back to who I am! I'll be a changed host!"

"Almost..." Duncan groaned.

"...I'll be a new host!" Chris smiled.

"...sort of..." DJ said.

"...And if Tuerto finds me, I'll be willing to sacrifice my life for yours!" Chris said. "And I do mean that honestly!"

"Wow..." Cameron said as Chris pushed a button.

"Now, watch as I rejoin my fellow co-hosts... and host the greatest game of Total... Drama... EQUESTRIA! EVER," Chris said as he opened a portal. "Follow and cheer guys, I'm back!"

"Do we have to?" Geoff asked.

"I'll give you some limited access visits to your fellow competitors just for today!" Chris smiled.

"You mean it?" Owen smiled.

"Cross my heart!" Chris smiled. "All right, everyone!"

The eliminated contestants cheered as they followed Chris into the portal...

----------------------------------------------------------------

...and instantly stopped as their eyes widened at the chaos that was looming before them.

A ton of Pinkie and Izzy clones were dancing as the real Pinkie and Izzy were having fun with Topher and Discord, Celestia, Luna and Chef were trying to break free, Twilight was using her magic to zap away the clones that forcefully grabbed her or Ben back to the Mirror Pool, Applejack, Rainbow Dash, Fluttershy, Rarity, Ezekiel, Harold, Lindsay and Scott were being carried away, Noah, B, Dawn and Katie were holding their faces in shame, and Bridgette was actually getting used to the dancing... until she looked up and gasped.

"Geoff? Guys," Bridgette noticed the eliminated contestants in front of them... then Bridgette's eyes widened as she saw who was the leader. "CHRIS IS BACK!!"

(Pinkie and Izzy clones)

Chris is back,

Step In Time,

Chris is back,

Step In Time!

"WHAT IS ALL THIS!" Chris screamed.

The Pinkie and Izzy clones then started spinning Chris around as the eliminated contestants were ducking for cover, Cameron hiding behind Owen.

What's all this? What's all this?

What's all this? What's all this?

What's all this? What's all this?

"What's all this?" Chris said as he was running around the chaos. "What's all this? What's all this?"

Link your elbows,

Step In Time!

Kick your knees up,

Step In Time!

Kick your knees up, Kick your knees up-

Noah then frowned as he turned to the dancing Izzy and Pinkie, the real ones. "Pinkie, Izzy, please stop this chaos. Twilight wants to get rid of your clones now!"

"All right, all right," Pinkie and Izzy sighed as they did a whistle.

Step In Time!

The clone Pinkie and Izzys then did a spinning motion as they let go of their partners, Twilight glaring as she joined alongside Chris as each Pinkie and Izzy clone was shaking Chris' hand.

"Good luck, guv'na!" An Izzy clone smiled after shaking Chris's hand, then Twilight zapped her.

"Lovely time," A Pinkie clone smiled as Twilight's horn zapped that clone back to the Mirror Pool.

"An elegant time, guv'na," An Izzy and Pinkie clone shake Chris's hand, then Twilight zapped the clones back into the Mirror Pool.

A huge Pinkie costumed and Izzy disguised like characters then shook Chris's hand... as Chris frowned and pulled the two characters back and lifted the masks... revealing Discord and Topher's faces, Topher saying, "Good luck, guv'na!"

Chris had no words.

Pretty soon, every Pinkie and Izzy clone that was created was zapped back into the pool as Discord smiled to Chris, "Did you know that when a clone shakes your hand, you'll be lucky? It's true!"

-----------------------------------------------------------

Scott: (chuckles) Cool... someone got in trouble, and I didn't have to do anything about it!

-----------------------------------------------------------------

"Pinkie... Izzy..." Twilight, Celestia and Chris frowned as the three came over. Twilight then frowned. "What is the meaning of this?"

"Will you kindly PLEASE explain to me what just happened... and no cute smiles! It didn't work the first time when I was building that robot army, which, by the way, IZZY, YOU and Heather messed up, and it won't work here!" Chris frowned.

"Well, first of all, we'd like to make one thing quite clear!" Pinkie smiled.

"Yes?" Chris asked.

"...We never explain anything." Izzy said as the two started walking off.

"Come back here!" Twilight growled as she used her horn to pull the two together.

"Excuse us while we have a talk with THESE two!" Celestia frowned as she, Twilight and Chris dragged Pinkie and Izzy off.

The hosts and the ponies (except for Celestia, Chris and Twilight who had left to speak with Izzy and Pinkie, the hard way) look at the stuff in the two teams' possession as the others watch on.

"So that's the Mirror Pool you ponies spoke about?" B asks the other ponies.

"Eeyup, that's the one." Applejack replied with a nod.

Soon, the hosts came back…with Izzy and Pinkie tied up and gagged. Chris smiles as he spoke, "Ah, feel fresh as a daisy."

"Is tying them up necessary?" Mike asks Chris, though Twilight frowns at him. "Err, on second thought, yeah, I supposed it is."

"Okay, after a while of looking and point scoring, I declared Rainbow Dash's team to be the winners!" Luna announces, making Bridgette, Rainbow, Scott, Ezekiel, Lindsay and Harold scream eagerly for their victory.

"Aww, man," Dawn exclaimed in disappointment.

"And thus, Scott, Zeke, Lindsay and Harold will get temporarily stay at the Royal Sisters Classic Hotel!" Topher exclaims excitedly as the team cheers. "Also, as a treat, their pal Rainbow gets one night stay there with them, free of charge!"

"OMIGOSHOMIGOSHOMIGOSHOMIGOSHOMIGOSH," Rainbow exclaimed excitedly while flapping her wings.

"Great. I guess that means one of us will be gone tonight." Noah said with a sigh, knowing that it means that either he, B, Dawn, Katie or Izzy will be eliminated tonight.

"I'm sorry, Noah, but this is NOT an elimination challenge." Celestia said, much to the surprise and hope of the losers.

"Though thanks for reminding us, we haven't had one yet." Chris said happily, much to the others' groan.

"There will be an elimination tonight... and the five of you are going to be held accountable. I'm sorry, but we have to do this..." Celestia said sternly, glancing at Izzy and her team players.

"Bye-bye, retards." Scott taunted the losers evilly.

"For now, just do whatever you wish...it will only get worst from here." Chris said with a chuckle. It's good to be himself again after all this time.

"Yep, that's Chris." Dakota remarked, shaking her head.

---------------

Katie: (sighs) even though it's a non-elimination round, one of us is still going to get eliminated for the confusion that happened.

------------------

Noah: (frowns) Well, if one of us is going, it's probably going to be Izzy. She's the one who got us into this fix.

---------------------

Izzy: (singing) I am the Pinball Wizard!!!! (Normally) Everybody!

--------------------------

Back in the Ponyville, the players, minus the eliminated ones who went back to the castle to talk to the princesses, came back to Ponyville with their pony friends, with Izzy and Pinkie no longer tied up.

"Well, nothing left to say...except last one to the hot tub at the hotel is an egghead!" Rainbow cheered on wildly as she zooms off to the hotel.

"Hey, wait up!" Bridgette called out as she, Bridgette, Ezekiel, Scott and Lindsay followed her.

"Can't believe one of us is going still," Dawn said while looking down.

"Awww, everything will be all right, you'll see!" Pinkie giggled a bit while hugging her pals, "How about a song to cheer you all up?"

As the others watch, Pinkie began to sing.

Pinkie: This is the song that doesn't end,
Yes, it goes on and on my friend

Izzy grinned as she sang also.

Pinkie and Izzy: Some people started singing it
Not knowing what it was,
And they'll continue singing it forever just because

This is the song that doesn't end

"Oh no!" Twilight groans as she slaps a hoof to her forehead as the song kept on going.

Yes, it goes on and on, my friend

"Okay, seriously?" Spike asked, arching an eyebrow.

Some people started singing it
Not knowing what it was
And they'll continue singing it forever just because

This is the song that doesn't end

To some of the others' dismay, Nyx and her CMC appears, joining in.

Pinkie, Izzy & CMC: Yes, it goes on and on, my friend

"Okay, real mature." Ben said with a chuckle as the others tried to put up with the song.

Some people started singing it
Not knowing what it was
But people kept singing it just because

"Okay, is there a way for this song to end?" Noah ask, arching an eyebrow as the song continues.

"Unfortunately, that's the point." Katie said with a sigh.

This is the song that doesn't end
Yes, it goes on and on, my friend
Some people started singing it
Not knowing what it was
But people kept singing it just because

"Ugh! I'm getting a headache!" Rarity groaned, putting a hoof to her own forehead.

This is the song that doesn't end
Yes, it goes on and on, my friend
Some people started singing it
Not knowing what it was
But people kept singing it just because

"Okay, are you done?" Noah asked impatiently. Apparently not as Pinkie, Izzy and the singing CMC left to sing on.

This is the song that doesn't end
Yes, it goes on and on, my friend
Some people started singing it
Not knowing what it was
But people kept singing it just because

"Okay, you all keep on singing and head off. We will meet you later." Fluttershy said as the singing group kept on going.

This is the song that doesn't end
Yes, it goes on and on, my friend

Twilight and the remaining others sigh, relieved that Pinkie's group is now gone. Suddenly, a door opened as Pinkie popped out, singing.

Pinkie: This is the song that--

"Pinkie! No, no!" Twilight snapped as she uses her magic to zips Pinkie's mouth shut. "No more, okay, no more."

Pinkie unzipped her mouth as she exclaimed, "Okie dokie lokie!"

"And don't slam the..." Twilight began to say to Pinkie. Too late as the pink pony slammed the door right in her face, making the Alicorn sigh in annoyance, "...door."

------------------------

The 10 players, along with the Mane Six, Ben and the Dragons (the CMC stayed behind because it is their bedtime) returns to Canterlot Castle for the next elimination. Upon arrival, Flash took the players to the throne room to confront the hosts, especially the now refreshen (but still a jerk as ever) Chris McClean.

"Well, well, this is a weird turn of events. It was a non-elimination round but someone has to pay for the madness." Chris remarks with a light chuckle as he holds up a place with four cupcakes on it. "Bridgette, Scott, Ezekiel, Lindsay and Harold won the challenge so they're safe. The rest of you are suck food."

"Underlining the words 'suck'." Rainbow jokes a bit, but stops as her friends frown at her.

"When you hear your names, we will toss you your cupcake." Celestia said, looking at the names. "B and Dawn, you're both safe."

B and Dawn caught their own cupcakes. Luna read the next name, "Noah, you're safe as well."

Noah grabs the next cupcake, looking concerned as only Katie and Izzy are left.

"Katie, Izzy. Tough decision; Katie; Fail to stop your items from being grabbed; Izzy; The cause of the latest chaos,” Chris explains to the duo seriously as to what brings them closer to elimination this time.

"And I love it!" Discord exclaims with a mad chuckle but clears his throat. "But still: one of you must go."

"The final cupcake of the night goes..." Celestia said, pausing a bit as the others wait anxiously for the princess to reveal the final safe player. "...Katie."

Katie smiles as the princess toss her the final cupcake of the night. She's safe...but Izzy isn't.

Pinkie starts crying, "Izzy, no!"

Izzy hugs Pinkie as she said, "It's all right, Pinkie, stay strong! I'll still be here... just with the research team!"

"I hate heart-felt good-byes... Okay, Izzy, Suck-O-Gone!" The chimera remarks as he made a familiar black hole appear. Discord then throws Izzy towards the Suck-O-Gone... whilst another portal appears, and Izzy fell out. Everyone was confused. "Yeah, we had to redirect the Suck-O-Gone for a while so it would take you here... that way, you'll be helping us out in the game, you're just not competing!"

"Cool beans!"

"Yay! She's an intern!" Pinkie exclaims, bouncing up and down. Yes, Izzy is out but she's still in Equestria!

"There will still be an Aftermath Show in a few episodes... just not the time to do so... all right?" Discord said, insisting that now's not the time for Izzy to head to the EG world right now.

"Great! So, what do I do next?" Topher ask eagerly, wanting to know what he should do next.

"Yeah... kid, we don't need you anymore." Chris said awkwardly. He got a feeling that this Topher kid may be a big pain to him in the next season. "I'm back to hosting now, we don't need you anymore... but thanks for giving me the idea, we'll have a new season contestant as a co-host every episode!"

"Not needed?" Topher sighs. "Well, all right, then. This wasn't even a paying job anyway, so..." The future contestant sighs once more, "I guess I better go back and wait with the others..." Topher smiles as he saw the bright side of this. "I can't wait to tell them what I saw-"

Discord then summoned a portal below Topher's feet as Topher suddenly fell, screaming as a thud was heard.

Topher is yelling from the portal, "Say, Chris, if you ever consider having me as a host for Total Drama, let me know! You have my resume and business card! I'm not going to be in until next season, you know!"

"Oh." Chris said as the portal disappears. He pauses, "Well... Topher, was it? He seemed pretty eccentric. I don't know whether to like him or despise him."

"After all, he's not going to be in until next season." Chef remarked, rolling his eyes of course.

"So, best to keep your opinions to yourself until that time..." Celestia said to Chris sternly.

Chris nods, "All right."

"Well, I guess it's time to...time to!" Twilight said, hesitating as she is getting so emotionally confused over her feelings for Celestia. "Ugh! Hang on a moment."

Twilight trots over to Celestia who looks puzzled, wondering what her fellow princess wants. Suddenly without warning, the purple Alicorn grabs the Alicorn of the Sun by the head...and kiss her on the lips, much to the surprise and/or shock of everyone.

"Gawd," Harold exclaims in shock and surprise.

"Wow." B said, speechless.

Ben looks surprised as Twilight finishes kissing Celestia. The latter blinks as she asks, "Well?"

"Hmmm, eh, nothing; actually, whatever I had is gone now. Sorry, I just want to get rid of those confused feelings Cody gave me." Twilight said to Celestia with a sheepish chuckle. "No hard feelings?"

"None, really."

"Okay, can we move on and pretend that we never saw that?" Ben asks, getting a bit awkward by seeing his fillyfriend kissing his adopted mother like that.

Chris laughs a bit as he turns to the camera, speaking, "Anyway, folks; another player is gone...and come back, sort of! 9 players remain. Which player will be send packing big time? More to come on the next excited episode of..."

Suddenly as we pan back to the outside of the castle, Pinkie and Izzy jumps in and yells out, "Total...Drama...EQUESTRIA!!!"

"Hey, that's my line!"

-------------

We see clips of the next episode

The announcer spoke up, "It's time to rumble on the next Total Drama Equestria!"

“And now, get ready…for our sport event is…..WRESTLE MANIA!” Chef announced forth with a loud boomy voice of what they’ll be seeing here; wrestling.

"Players have to wrestle for the win!"

“I am…..Madam Fashion! All that dare diss the lovely fashion & styles of the world shall face my fury!” The new masked mare spoke while sounding like Rarity, but was being very serious.

"And will the ones on the quest for the eye survive the wrath of the baby phoenix?"

"Incoming!" Cody screams as the players dodges bombs that are dropped on them like mad.

"Ooooh, I am loving this!" The baby phoenix remarks with a grin as he put a mark on the side of his nest.

"Find out who goes and who blows in the next episode of Total Drama Equestria! Be there!"

“Heeee…Huhaaah!” The new wrestler flex himself in being seen for all those around, and there was some excellent trumpet playing american battle theme in the air, though it could be Spanish.
