We Gon' Dig It Up, Like It's Dino Bones!

The fourth chapter of Total Drama: Tiki Jungle, posted on January 23, 2011.
==Story==
"Last time on Total, Drama: Tiki Jungle..." begins Chris, "The jungle-mates participated in their second challenge, which was just as dangerous as the first one! They had to race to another island in rafts, and bring back a seashell. Some people didn't necessarily get along, while others got along too well. In the end, Carson asked Amanda out, and she finally said yes. But, unfortunately, she was voted out right after. Poor Cars. He didn't get any money, and now his girlfriend is eliminated. Anyways, the challenge today will rock, a lot! Be sure to watch, right here, right now, on Total... Drama... Tiki, Tiki Jungle!"
"Crap," says Carson, in the Terrible Tikis' cabin. "Crappity crap crap crap."
"I's all righ', G." says Devin, trying to comfort him. "At least you wasn't rejected, homes. I's been rejected plenty o' times, dawg, and lemme tell ya: it ain't fun."
"Yeah," says Carson, "But, I'll still kill whoever voted off my girlfriend."
Julia looks guilty.
Julia says in the confessional, "I know it was sorta needed to do that last night, but I sorta feel bad brutally booting off Carson's chick. I mean, she's annoying and mean, but now he's gonna kill me. And I want to vote off Devin tonight, so he's probably gonna kill me again. Shiitake mushrooms!"
"Hey, Elena," asks Julia. "What's it like to be killed?"
"Um... I wouldn't know," says Elena.
Elena says in the confessional, "Something's wrong with Julia. She's acting all weird. Maybe, she's afraid of the wrath of Carson."
Meanwhile, Over Nine Thousand is a little less stressful.
"Look at this," says Gary, pointing to a lava lamp.
"And this," says Chrissy, feeling the gold-plated walls of the reward cabin.
"Aaaaaand thiiiiiisssss." says Arthur, who is slowly sinking into the hot tub. "Aaaaah, that's the stuff."
"I wish we could win every day," says Meg. "It would be pretty nice."
"Yeah, but it probably won't last," says Chrissy. "And some people aren't even enjoying this cabin."
Helga is reading a book called "The Silver GPS." She looks up, and says, "What?" She then continues to read.
"How did I not expect that?" says Meg. "It happened all last season."
Chris meets the campers, this time in the middle of the forest. "Among other things," says Chris, "Like rafting, dangerous tiki gods, and volcanoes, Tiki Island is well-known for its large selection of dinosaur bones, which are buried throughout the jungle. Your challenge today is to build and assemble a realistic dinosaur sculpture."
"Easy-peasy." scoffs Julia.
"But, there's a catch," says Chris. "You will have to find and dig up the dinosaur bones yourself! One set of bones will be painted green, for the Terrible Tikis, and one will be painted blue, for Over Nine Thousand."
"Blue bones?" questions Gary.
"Do not question the interns' work, Garrison." says Chris. "Anyways, the bones are scattered around the island. Some are in very dangerous places, while some are in plain sight." He hands each team a pickax, bucket and shovel. "Happy hunting. You have until nightfall."
"Yippee, more physical work." says Alex. "Carry me, somebody."
"No, thanks." says Sharissa, and walks right past him.
"What? Huh? Sharissa, you're my carrier!" says Alex.
"Not anymore," says Sharissa, and struts away.
Alex says in the confessional, "What's wrong with her?"
Nic doesn't leave. "Chris," he says. "You have not given us breakfast for the past week. How are we supposed to eat?"
"Here," says Chris. He tosses Nic a bag of Chef's Total Drama Yum Yum Happy Go Time Candy Fish Tails.
Nic eats one of the Total Drama Yum Yum Happy Go Time Candy Fish Tails and barfs. "This is disgusting!" he complains.
Nic says in the confessional, "I actually loved it. It was the greatest thing I've ever had in my life. But, Al didn't like it in World Tour, so I'm going with his opinion."
Over Nine Thousand is hiking in the woods. "Where do you think the bones are?" asks Trey.
"Your bones are quite amazingly shaped." says Octavia, and squeezes his cheekbones.
Trey says in the confessional, "I'm sort of liking this Octavia girl, but I'm sorta not. Well, she has pink hair, and that's my favorite color. So, I might ask her out. Then again, her old-fashioned speech could get annoying. I'll think about it."
"I see a blue bone stickin' out of the ground," says Chrissy. "Meg, hand me the pickax."
Meg hands Chrissy the pickax.
Chrissy picks up the pickax, but it sinks into the mud.
"Hey, this isn't mud." says Chrissy. She sticks her foot in. A "gloop" noise is heard, and her leg gets stuck. She finally manages to pull it out, but her shoe is lost.
"Aw, great, it's quicksand." grumbles Meg. "How are we supposed to get the bone?"
"I got it." grumbles Arthur. He waddles into the quicksand, and slowly begins to sink. "This feels goooood." he rumbles.
"Arthur!" snaps Chrissy. "You're supposed to get the bone, not take a bath in it!"
"I'll do both." mumbles Arthur. He picks up the bone, throws it at Meg, and it hits her in the head, causing her to faint.
"Now look what you've done." says Chrissy. She grabs both of his feet, and begins to pull.
"Ugh!" Chrissy begins to strain. "This... is... so... friggin' hard!"
"It's because I'm morbidly obeeeese!" groans Arthur.
Meg says in the confessional, with a bag of ice on her head, "Okay, that's getting old."
Chrissy finally pulls Arthur out of the quicksand. "That took longer than expected." She pulls out a phone. "It took an hour, and we have to be back in three hours. Let's get movin', guys."
"All right." says Meg. She accidentally bumps into Gary, who falls into a hole.
"Nice going." grumbles Helga.
"Ouchies!" says Gary, who's around five feet deep in a hole, with only his head peeking out. "Someone get me out of here! Can someone, like, gimme their shirt to hoist me up?"
"I'll--" begins Arthur.
"No," says Helga.
"I'll do it," says Trey angrily. "For my team!" He takes off his shirt, revealing his buff ab belly. He uses his shirt to hoist Gary out of the hole. Gary comes out with a few bones in his hand.
"Thank you! Thankyouthankyouthankyou!" says Gary, and hugs him.
"Oh, you are so luscious and beautiful..." says Octavia, and she clamps onto his shoulders.
"Um, thanks," says Trey. "Can you get off of me now?"
Octavia lets go of Trey's shoulders.
Gary says in the confessional, "I just don't get what's so great about that Trey guy. I mean, he's hot, but he's not exactly the best asset to our team... Wait, did I just say that he was hot? AW, MAN! I didn't mean-- I meant he's good-looking-- ahh, just forget it." He slaps his forehead.
Meanwhile, the Terrible Tikis are also trying to find bones.
"Bones, bones," says Elena, scanning the area for bones. "Ah! I see some! Who's the shortest person here?"
Julia hides behind Sharissa.
"Oh yeah, Julia," says Elena. "See those bones in that field of green plants? I want you to grab them."
"Why do I have to do it?" whines Julia.
"Because you're the smallest," says Elena, "And you'll fit through that stump."
"But that's poison ivy," says Julia. "I'm not stupid."
"I beg to differ," says Alex.
Julia glares at him.
"Fine, I'll do it," she says. She crawls through the poison ivy, grabs the bones, and comes out, covered in red rashes.
"At least you didn't die," says Elena. "Good job." She is about to give Julia a high five, but thinks and puts her hand away.
"All right," says Julia. "We've got most of the bones. Now, there are only a few left, and they're in quicksand. Goody."
"I shall do it," says Nic valiantly. "For my team." He takes off his shirt, and dives into the quicksand. Not surprisingly, his body gets stuck. "Oh, no!" he groans. "Will someone get me out of here?"
"Nope, sorry," says Elena.
Everyone else doesn't want to. Sharissa glances at Alex, who's asleep, holding a bucket of bones. She takes the bones, and says to Nic, "Here. Use the bones to prop yourself onto land."
"Got it," says Nic, and grabs the bucket. Unfortunately, the bones sink into the quicksand.
"Quick!" shrieks Julia, and dives into the quicksand. She gets stuck in it too.
"Oh, no, dawg! I'll save ya, shawty!" says Devin.
"I already told you this last challenge!" shrieks Julia. "I'm not short!"
Devin dives into the gloop, and kicks Julia. She gets out, but the bones aren't so lucky. They have completely vanished into the muck.
"I am sincerely sorry, teammates." says Nic, while climbing out of the sand. "I hope I can repay you in the future."
"Yeah, ya can repay us by shutting up," says Sharissa, who picks up Alex and starts walking. "Now we have to get all new bones."
"Geez, I said I was sorry!" whines Nic.
"It's okay," says Elena. "I promise I won't vote you out."
Elena, in the confessional, holds up her crossed fingers.
Meanwhile, Over Nine Thousand is having more luck.
"We got a lot of bones!" says Gary.
"No duh, Sherlock." says Chrissy.
Meg sees the cabins. "Look, we're almost back to camp!" she says. "Now, we just have to build our sculpture."
Suddenly, a large vulture swoops down and grabs the bucket of bones.
"Hey!" rumbles Arthur. "Our booooones!" He clamps onto the vulture's talon, and doesn't let go.
The vulture makes a shrieking noise and crumples onto the ground, moaning.
"Way to go, Arth." says Trey. "Hey, can I call you that?"
"Suuuuuuure." says Arthur. "You're welcome."
The team goes back to camp, and sees Chris.
"Hey, jungle-mates." says Chris. "Ready to build your bones?" He hands the team some glue.
"Helga, hand me the glue bottle." says Meg.
Helga throws a book at Meg's head, then sits down and begins to read another one.
"Ouch!" says Meg. The bump on her head gets bigger. "What was that for?"
Helga says in the confessional, "She was mean to me last season. That's what she gets."
"All right, if you're gonna do that, you're getting voted off." says Chrissy.
"The other team is nowhere in sight. We can't go to elimination." says Octavia blatantly.
"Ta-da!" says Gary. He's done with the dinosaur, which is covered in grass, dirt, and blue paint. "I call this the Grass-o-saurus!"
"Wow, creative name," says Chris sarcastically. "And there's the other team."
The Terrible Tikis, all bruised and cut up, return to the campsite.
"Where's your bones?" asks Chris.
"Our what?" says Julia lazily.
"Your bones. For the challenge." says Chris obviously.
"We lost them in the quicksand," says Elena. "Sorry."
"Well, you'll just have to use these," says Chris. He hands them a pile of plastic multicolored bones that look like small children's toys.
"But, the other team already won." says Carson. "What's the point?"
"There is none!" chuckles Chris. "Happy building!"
Eventually, they finish their sculpture. It's nothing more than a jumbled mess of bones.
"Like it?" asks Sharissa.
"Actually, it's quite amazing." says Chris.
Elena gasps.
"I think you guys might actually win!" says Chris.
Alex wakes up, and begins to dance.
Chris pauses for a moment. "Just kidding!" he says. "Over Nine Thousand won a while ago, so they get invincibility and the cool cabin again."
The Terrible Tikis begin to curse and argue.
"Sorry, that's just the way it goes." says Chris. "You guys have to send a player home tonight."
The Terrible Tikis begin to argue even more.
"Meet me at the campfire." says Chris.
Arthur says in the confessional, "I'm so glad we woooooon again. My team is full of the chicks, dude. I mean, there's Meg, who's sorta nice, there's Chrissy, who's a bit hot, there's that pink haired girl who loooooves Trey, and there's Helga. But, she's a little on the chubby side."
Helga opens the door to the confessional, and says angrily, "You're one to talk."
"I'm sorry!" says Arthur. "I can't help my morbid obeeeesity!"
"Whatever," says Helga. She whacks him with a paperback book, and leaves.
Elena says in the confessional, "Why does my team keep losing? I'm such an amazing team captain! Well, it's probably that Nic's fault. I'm gonna boot him tonight. He's so annoying."
Devin says in the confessional, "I's feelin' a bit outta place tonigh', home dawg. I mean, dere's Carson, and he's m' G, an' dere's dat weirdo Nic, but th' whole rest o' th' team is jus' plain annoying, dawg, y' know wha' I'm sayin'?"
Trey says in the confessional, "I still can't get over why girls like me so much. All right, that tears it. I'm gonna tell Octavia, tonight."
At the marshmallow ceremony, Chris explains the votes. "Hello, Horrible Tikis. One of you is taking the Path of Shame tonight."
"Just get on with it," says Nic.
"Elena, you're safe." says Chris. Elena grabs her marshmallow.
"Sharissa." Sharissa claims her prize.
"Devin, the not-so-gangsta." Devin grabs his prize, and shakes his behind.
"Julia." Julia stomps up, and gets her marshmallow.
"Carson, you're safe too." Carson whoops for joy.
"Gentlemen," Chris stares at Alex and Nic, "One of you is going home tonight. And one of you is not. So, the one who's not is..."
"...Nic."
"AGAIN?" screams Elena. Everyone stares at her.
"Yesss!" says Nic, and takes off his shirt.
"Alex, time to say bye bye bye." says Chris.
"Whatever," says Alex. "What did I do?"
"You're really lazy, and not very helpful." says Julia. "That's why I booted ya."
"Well, see ya." says Alex, and crawls towards the raft. He falls into the water, and floats away.
"Um, that was strange." says Chris. "But, it was good. See ya next time for more dramatic fun on Total... Drama... Tiki, Tiki Jungle!"
Octavia is sitting by the dock, playing a trumpet. Trey walks up to her.
"Hey, Octavia," says Trey.
"What, beautiful one?" says Octavia.
"I like you, a lot." says Trey.
Octavia's face fills up with joy.
"But, I don't exactly want a relationship right now." says Trey. "So, do you think we could take things a little slow?"
"All right," says Octavia solemnly.
"I'm not saying I don't like you!" says Trey. "I just don't want a G.F. right now!"
"Okay," says Octavia. She looks into his eyes gazingly.
They look at each other for a moment.
"This is awkward," says Trey, and walks back to camp.
