Total Drama: Gwen's Story

{Chapter 12: My worst Fear}

"Last time on Total Drama Island... The campers has their survival skills put to the test when they spent the entire night camping in the woods. Katie and Sadie's friendship was strained when Katie's sense of direction got them totally lost. Duncan's mad ghost-story telling skills freaked out the Killer Bass, and uh, Izzy played a prank on the Gophers by dressing up as a bear. Unfortunately, a real bear showed up and the Gophers spent the night up in a tree, which really sucked for them. Cody peed in his pants and then it rained. Basically, no one got any sleep last night. Ultimately, the Killer Bass were the ones on the chopping block, leaving Katie without a marshmallow. Yup, the challenge was rough, all right. And if I have anything to say about it, today's will be even more brutal. Luckily, I do. What fresh horror have we planned for our campers? Find out next on Total. Drama. Island!" Chris said to the audience at home. A little after my team was done partying. We were going to go to sleep but Owen stunk up the cabins with his farts, so we went to go check up on the Killer Bass. We had brought green jell-o for them to feast on. We walked over to the campfire pit and saw that everybody was still there. I saw Bridgette and Sadie walking back to the campfire pit. Part of the dock was in Sadie's hands. I'm guessing that Katie had gotten voted off. We walked up to them and Courtney asked us "What do you guys want? Come by to rub it in?" "We got you some extra dessert after out tuck shop party. Thought you might want some." Trent told them. "So what? You're just being... Nice?" Courtney said. I had to tell them the truth. "Okay. Owen stank up our cabin and we need some time to air out." Owen farted and Trent said ew. We held out the green jelly and Courtney  and she yelled. "No! I mean, no thanks. I'm good." She said. "What, are you on a diet or something?" Duncan asked. "No! I just don't like green jelly, okay?" Courtney slightly yelled at him. There was a gummy worm inside of the green jello. "Snake!" D.J yelled as he knocks over the jello. Cody walks over and tells D.J "Chill, dude. It's just a gummy worm." "Sorry for trippin'. Snakes just freak me out." D.J says. "I feel you. Chickens give me the creeps, dude." Tyler said. "You're afraid of chickens?!" I asked. "Duncan says wiping a tear off of his face. 

                                                                                Past time 

"So suddenly, everyone's having this big share-fest by the fire. Like Beth went on and on about how her mortal fear is being covered by bugs, Harold's afraid of ninjas, even Heather admitted she's afraid of sumo wrestlers." I say in the confessional.

                                                                               Real time

"What's my worst fear? I guess being buried alive." I say. "Walking through a minefield. In heels." Lindsay says nervously. "Flying, man. That's some crazy stuff." Owen says. "Hah. I would never go up in a plane. Never!" Izzy tells the crowd. "I'm scared of hail. It's small but deadly, dude." Geoff says. "Being left alone in the woods." Bridgette says. "Bad haircuts." Sadie says sniffling. "Oh, okay. I change mine! That's so much scarier than a minefield!" Lindsay says. "Having to diffuse a time bomb under pressure." Cody tells us. "I'm not really afraid of anything." Courtney says proudly. Duncan coughs while saying "Bologna." "Oh, really. Well, what exactly is your phobia, Mr. Know-it-all?" Courtney said. Duncan looks around nervously. He quickly says "C-Celine Dion music store standees." "Haha, ex-squeeze me? I didn't quite get that." Cody said. "Dude, did you say Celine Dion music store standees?" Trent asks. "Ooh, I love Celine Dion! What's a standee?" Lindsay asks. "You know... That cardboard cutout thing that stands in the music store." Trent explains. "Don't... Say it, dude!" Duncan yells. "Kinda like a life-sized, but flat Celine." Trent tells Lindsay. "So if we had a cardboard standee right now..." Courtney says before Duncan cutting her off and saying "Shut up! What about you guys?" Duncan asks. "Okay, well, I hate mimes. Like, a lot. All right, Courtney, youre afraid of something. Spit it out." Trent said. "Nope. Nothing." Courtney said proudly. "That's not what she said last night." Duncan snorts. "Duncan, did you ever consider that maybe I was just humoring you and your stupid story?" Courtney said.  "Sure, sure, princess. Whatever floats your boat." Duncan sarcastically says. "Shut up!" Courtney says. All night, the fellow campers talked about fears and why the came onto the show. We all went to bed around 10:00 or 11:00. We woke up at 7:00 by Chris. We all got ready and headed down to the Main Lodge for some food. Once we were all sitting down, Chris walked in and whistled for our attention. "Campers, your next challenge is a little game I like to call... Phobia Factor! Prepare to face... Your worst fears!" "Worse than this?" Leshawna asks Chris. "We're... In trouble." I say. "Now for our first victims, Heather! Meet us all in the theater! It's... Sumo time!" Heather spit out something that was in her mouth. "Gwen." Chris says to me. "You, me, the beach. A few tons of sand." Chris says. I gasp. Being buried alive is my worst fear. He wasn't lying when he said that the challenge was Phobia Factor. I lay my head down on the table. "Wait, how did they know those were your worst fears?" Lindsay asked. "Ugh. Because we told them." I say angrily. "At the campfire last night." Trent adds. I had a flashback back to when I told everyone. "What's my worst fear? I guess being buried alive." I remember saying. " Wait. They were listening to us?" Lindsay asked me. "It's a reality show, Einstein. They're always listening to us." I reply. "That's like... Eavesdropping!" Lindsay says shocked. Like she had no idea we were even on t.v. " Chef Hatchet! Didn't you have an order for Tyler here today?" Chris says. Chef pulls out a full sized fried chicken and hands it to Tyler. Tyler takes a bite of it and a live chickens head popped out of it. He screamed. D.J threw up.  We then went outside and we saw a pool with bugs filled in it. I remember her saying that she was afraid of bugs. Beth stepped into the pool and lied down in it. Covering herself with bugs. My team cheered. "And Beth sets the bar way up there!" Chris said. Lindsay and Beth got mullet wigs. Owen and Izzy got in a plane and flew. Chris gathered some of us at the amp-theater. He put Heather and a sumo restler on the stage. The restler came running towards Heather and she ducked. Dodging him. "Heather stepped up to the plate, scoring the Gophers their second point on the board." Chris said. Chris walked Bridgette over to the woods and left her there. "Bridgette began her six hours of solitude in the woods feeling pretty confident." He said. Chris led the group over to the beach and there was a hole in the sand. A glass container, big enough to fit a person, layed in the hole. Chris told me to climb in and get comfortable. Chris was going to bury me alive. "There's enough air for an hour. You only need to do five minutes." Trent says to me. "As long as we decide to dig you up." Chris joked. "Not funny, Chris." I say. "Sheesh, take a pill." Chris said. Trent leaned over and handed me a walkie-talkie. "I'll be listening the whole time. Just yell for me if you panic and I'll dig you right up." He said to me. "Goodbye, cruel world!" I say. "Can you hear me?" I heard Trent say on the other line of the walkie-talkie. "Crystal clear." I reply. "Everybody left, I said I would stay behind for you." He says. I smile stupidly. I'm falling in love. "Well, thanks for that." I told him. "No problem." He says. After that it was just quiet. A while later, Trent finally says something. "You still alive in there? Only three more minutes." "And then you'll dig me up, right?" I asked. "Don't worry, I'm not going anywhere. I promise." He replied. "I need some kind of distraction! Tell me a story! Um, why do you hate mimes so much?" I told Trent. He sighed then spoke. "My mom took me to this carnival once when I was four so I could see the elephants. I was stoked!" "Yeah?!" "I was so busy watching them that I lost her for a minute. I called out, but when I turned, all I could [normal] see was the horrible white face with black lips pretending to be me! I screamed and tried to run, but every time I turned around, he was there, doing this creepy fake run and scream routine!" I then heard a scream and immediately got worried. "Trent?" I asked. Nobody responded. I just stayed quiet and hopped that time would go by faster.  I was buried, alive. I was scared and nervous. I waited. For a long time. Trent didn't come back in 3 minutes.  I waited for a while longer. I heard water splash and Trent yelled "Woohoo! Hahaha! What's the matter, mime? Can't swim?" Then he yelled "Stop! Uh... Your makeup will run! Take that you makeup-wearing freak!" I waited for a while longer. I was beginning to get mad. "Bury! Aw, crap! Gwen!" Trent yelled to someone. I heard footsteps above me and waited for another second. I saw light. It was Trent. " Gwen! You did it!" Trent told me. I threw my walkie- talkie at him. "Ow! What was that for?" "You forgot about me! What else would it be for?" I told him. He mumbled something that I couldn't understand. "What was that?" I asked him in a angry tone. "Nothing. Lets get going to our team." Trent said while holding out his hand. I took it and began walking beside him. Our hands interlocked each other. He looked down at me. I looked up at him. I smiled while his grin grew. "What?" I asked him. "Nothing, just think about something." He replied. I have been sexualized before. He could be thinking about railing the shit outta me. Who knows? I mean, I still am a virgin. I don't want to get fucked by a guy I met on a t.v show. We kept walking until we got to where there was a crowd of people. Both teams were there. "All right gang. We're in the ninth inning. Tyler, for your challenge, you need to get into this pen for three minutes with these chickens." Chris said to the group. "You can do it, Tyler!" Bridgette cheered Tyler on. "Yeah. Unless, of course, you're chicken." Duncan mocked. I walked up beside him and watched as Tyler climbed into the cage. "He's gonna chicken out." I whispered to Duncan. "That's wham I'm sayin!" Duncan replied. "I'm not sure we're getting anywhere on this one." Chris said. "Tyler, this is the last challenge! Quit being such a girl! You have to do his or we're going to lose!" Courtney yelled to Tyler. Tyler was in the cage, rocking back and forward with his knees tucked in to his chest. "Actually, if you do the math, you can't possibly win. The score is seven to three." Cody said to the Bass. "Not necessarily. We've got one more challenge set up." Chris said to us. "Who? It can't be me. But I didn't..." Courtney said. I guess Courtney never went for her challenge. "You didn't have to. We're always watching you and your reactions!" Chris said. "I knew it! Didn't I tell you guys they were eavesdropping?" Lindsay said.  "Oh, who cares? It's not going to make a difference." Courtney said. "Let's make this interesting, then. I'll give you triple points if you can complete it." Chris said to Courtney. "You're afraid of jelly?" Duncan snorted. "Shut up! Only the green kind! It's like sugary, jiggly snot!" Courtney spit back. We had gotten lead over to a pool full of green jelly. There was a diving board 20 feet above it. "You can face your fear and dive straight into this pool of jelly, or let your team lose another challenge." Chris said. "This is insane! I could seriously die doing this!" Courtney yelled. I decided to make it more disgusting for Courtney so that my team could win. "Oh! That is just cruel! It's probably warm by now. Warm, green jelly! Snotty, bouncy, ugh!" I said loud enough so Courtney could hear. "You're not going to make me quit!" Courtney said back. "That's it, keep climbing!" Duncan cheered. My heart broke again. I liked two guys. One more than the other. Trent was kinda pushy. Duncan was more nicer too. But he likes Courtney. I should just leave him be. "She's just trying to psych you out!" Bridgette yelled to Courtney. "Like you said, Courtney! It's okay if you can't do it!" Duncan said. "It is? But we'll lose!" Bridgette told Duncan. I wanted to sneak in and say something. "Good luck on voting tonight Duncan, you'll need it." I said. He let out a sigh. "I can't do it. I'm coming down!" Courtney yelled from above. I smirked and looked at Duncan to find he was already looking at me. My team cheered. We had won once again. "Then there you have it. The Gophers win invincibility this week. Again." Chris said. Owen jumped into the jelly and told me "You were right, Gwen. It is warm." I gave him a disgusted look and he got out. Later that night, the Bass had gone to their ceremony to vote out the next person. My team was waiting by the cabins for some entertainment. We were all bored out of our minds. "Wanna tell two sentence horror story's?"  I asked the group. They all agreed with me and we began the story's. Sense I suggested it, they told me to go first.  "There was a picture of me on my phone sleeping. I live alone." I said to my group. They all said "Oooh" Ans clapped for me. The group then shared their own story. Then there was a knock on the door. Izzy opened it and said. "It's just Duncan!" He walked in with a wide smile. "Tyler's gone." He said. We all cheered. Including me. Duncan sat down beside me and asked what we were doing. I told him about the two sentence horror story's and he said he has one of his own. "'It's safe to come out now sweetie.' My dad said reassuringly, his blue eyes shinning through the gap of the bedroom door. He's been saying that for hours but that doesn't change the fact that his eyes are green." Duncan said. "Oooh's" Had traveled around the room.  "Thank you, thank you." Duncan said. "I'm getting tired. I'm gonna head to bed." I told the group. "I'll walk you over there." Trent said. "I got her." Duncan said standing up with me. I started walking to my cabin. Duncan following me. "Gwen?" Duncan asked. "Yes?" I said. "I have to tell you something." He said. I had gotten to the door of my cabin and stood there with Duncan standing in front of me. "Go ahead. Say it." I told him. He looked at me in my eyes. And I looked at him. He moved closer to me and we kissed. For a few seconds. Not to long. I pushed him away and said out of breath "I can't do this..." "Why not" Duncan asked me. "You like Courtney. So why would you pick me?" I said before walking into my cabin. "Goodnight Duncan." I said before shutting the door. I got changed into my pajamas and layed down in bed. I closed my eyes and fell asleep.
