I've posted this on fanfiction.net, but to a rather lackluster response. As all the sections need minor updating before they're ready for gaia, I will probably be posting the four I've written one section at a time. Please review though, it's what motivates me too write and made me lose interest in my story for a while.

Chris Maclean stood poised on the dock, ready to begin his trademark spiel. With a smile to the camera, Chris exclaimed, "Previously on Total Drama Island, we watched the campers struggle vainly to win $100,000, forming alliances and rivalries. Surprisingly, Owen the underachiever came out on top. On Total Drama Action, we invited back many of our campers and made them into actors as they performed their way to victory in one lucky cast member's case. Strangely, some of you weren't happy with the whittling down of the campers and want to see some of those rejects like Eva, Katie, Noah, and Ezekiel competing again. Why? I have no idea, I mean hello they didn't create much drama and are not nearly as attractive as moi. Anyways, stay tuned for the excitement as all 22 of our original campers compete in another season at Camp Wawanakwa in Total Drama Redux!"

Theme Song Plays:

As it begins, the screen has wavy lines over it like a television rewinding. DJ is then seen running past the dock chased by a bear. The camera then pans up into a tree where Izzy and Eva are looking down and pounce on the bear as it runs past. Noah then pops up from a bush, looks around, and ducks as a football flies by low over his head and smashes into the Tyler who crumples to the ground. Lindsay quickly races over, checks if Tyler is alright, and begins talking to the football as Beth begins trying to explain to Lindsay who Tyler is. The camera then pans to Duncan who threw the football who stops laughing as he sees Courtney walk past. Before he is able to talk to her, she takes off after Harold and chases him into the woods, followed closely by Leshawna. The camera then goes down a different path where Ezekiel is practicing moose calls as Katie and Sadie eat blueberries. Suddenly a moose shows up and the three climb up into the trees. Justin walks into the clearing, and the moose ceases its charge to gaze at Justin while Sadie falls out of the tree due to being so distracted followed closely by Owen falling starry eyed out of another tree where he had been talking to the birds. Bridgette and Geoff are then seen making out on the beach as Trent plays his guitar looking forlornly at Gwen who shoots him one glance before slowly walking away to talk to Cody who had been strumming an air guitar. The campers are then all shown gathered on the porches of the cabins, gazing at Chris and Chef standing before a roaring fire.

"Welcome to Total Dram Redux! As you all know our campers, after all you're the ones who demanded their return, we have decided to skip their arrivals on the island so you can spend more time watching what you really want to see. Me. Chris Maclean. I have spent my time insuring that this season will be even more thrilling with backstabbing, friendship, insanity, and maybe even love. Upon arriving, our campers and their luggage were shuttled into the mess hall to await further instructions and their challenge. But just in case you are a first time viewer, we're going to do a quick rundown of all our competitors for you."

"First up is Ezekiel. This home-schooled wannabe infuriated the girls with his sexist comments. Will he manage to make amends?

Next we have Eva, this powerful competitor's temper got the better of her not just once but twice! Will she manage to calm down enough to last in the competition?

And then there's Noah, brilliant yes, but athletic no. Will he muster the energy to try in a physical challenge, or will he be right back on the train to loserville?

Justin wowed us with his good looks and proved he can use some strategy. Will he be willing to risk his looks to stay in the game?

Katie and Sadie, though sharing a brain still count as separate contestants. Can they manage to make friends with anyone else, or will their close-knit friendship cause one of them to hit the road?

Tyler despite claiming to be a great athlete has yet to impress with his abilities. Will he be able to face his fears or live up to any athletic standards?

Izzy has certainly kept the other contestants on their toes with her crazy stories and alteregos. Will she manage to avoid annoying them into eliminating her? And if eliminated, will she work her way back somehow?

Cody has not fulfilled his romantic or technological abilities that he claims to have. Will he manage to uphold either claim this time or leave in failure?

Beth seems to finally have learned who her friends are and to believe in herself. Will this be enough to enable her to actually win this time?

Courtney surprised us all by suing the show to return? Will her lawyers help her in this competition or lead to her downfall due to the other campers' jealousy?

Harold has proved he has mad skills when it counts. Will they be enough to propel him past these mad contestants?

Trent snapped due to his love for Gwen. Will he regain his sanity or be driven from the competition?

Bridgette's relationship with Geoff has been her downfall before, especially due to her kindness. Will she be able to focus on the game?

Lindsay, although still incapable of remembering my name, seems to be becoming a little wiser. Will she manage to show her smarts, or will her intellect and naiveté bring her downfall?

DJ has proven himself to be quite honest eventually but also rather cowardly. Will he be able to win valiantly?

Geoff has been altered by his time as a host and become much crueler to others. Will he be able to return to his old self, or will the new Geoff be sent packing?

Leshawna has proven herself to be a ruthless competitor, even willing to deceive her own teammates to win. Will she manage to regain her friends' trust or will she walk the Dock of Shame?

Duncan is a powerful competitor, making and breaking alliances and rules as he sees fit. Will his bad boy attitude lead him to victory or defeat?

Heather ruthlessly fought her way through the first season only to weaken in her resolve for the second. Will she be able to sharpen her skill and cunning again, or find herself quickly eliminated due to poor performance? Does anyone really even buy her "nice" act?

Gwen sacrificed her chance to win despite her abilities for karma points. Will she regain her teammates trust, and will karma reward her?

Owen certainly knows how to have fun and eat. Will his carefree lifestyle lead him to victory or defeat?"

As the campers stood waiting in the mess hall, clear groups were delineated. Eva stood pacing by the door, being given a wide berth by the other contestants as she prepared to snatch Chris the moment he entered. DJ, Duncan, and Tyler were discussing their exploits between seasons. Duncan revealed that he had nearly endured another bout in juvie but escaped it due to wooing the female cop with his celebrity status. Amazed, Tyler and DJ crowded in closer to listen. Gwen was attempting to talk to Bridgette who was alternating between listening and making out with Geoff while Trent kept trying to draw Gwen's attention. Meanwhile, Cody was feigning interest in Ezekiel's story about his rather unpleasant return home after the show, and all the angry letters he had received. Owen and Izzy were sitting together while Izzy recounted her latest escape from the RCMP. Katie and Sadie sat giggling, alternatively watching Justin and the other boys they were eyeing, occasionally pausing to whisper between them. Justin meanwhile was posing into a mirror in an attempt to draw the eyes of Lindsay and Beth who were too deep in a conversation about Beth's vacation with Brady to notice. Leshawna and Harold were flirting by a table while discretely talking to Heather who pretended to be ignoring them to file her nails. Noah sat on his own in the corner reading, content to be away from the noise of the other campers. Courtney had out her PDA and was angrily talking to her lawyers, "What do you mean the lawsuit that I could use my PDA doesn't apply to this contest! How did the show find a loophole to annul the previous ruling? You better keep searching for a way to let me use it."

Upon entering the mess hall, Chris was immediately grabbed by Eva who snarled, "Maclean, you better have a very good reason for forcing us back to this dump."

Chris, nonplussed, shrugged innocently and replied, "Eva, who says you were forced. I'm sure you all are happy to perform in another season and obtain the fame you so richly deserve."

"I don't know about the rest of you, but I would not be here if it weren't for those stupid contracts. Really how many copies did your lawyers make?" griped Gwen.

"Oh, a couple hundred, maybe more, you know how prepared lawyers are. We made extra of yours though after your… outburst first season," responded Chris.

"Look, I appreciate these happy memories as much as anyone, but for what are we competing this season? Your rather forceful invitation to this season was rather lacking in details," inquired Noah wryly.

"Shush! Don't rush me. I'm building the suspense. After all, the folks back home are just a curious as you are, maybe even more. Anyways, welcome campers to Total Drama Redux. We've decided to provide you all with a chance to relive your best memories right here at luxurious Camp Wawanakwa. This season, you will be competing against your old friends and rivals for an incredible sum of $1,000,000!"

The campers immediately burst into excited discussion at this announcement.

"Ohmigosh, Sadie. We have another chance at fame and money and best of all, we're together again. Just think what we could do with the money if we won!" gushed Katie.

"Oh, I so totally am," replied Sadie, "We could start a clothing shop to sell your awesome fashions. After all, this show is great advertising for them."

"You are so smart, Sadie! It's like you're reading my mind," returned Katie. "We could even expand that ice cream company you decided we should create!"

"Eeeeee!" They exclaimed.

"Well, another shot at that kind of money is the only reason I'd even consider putting up with Chris's torture for another season," quipped Gwen.

"I know right," affirmed Trent. "This time, I bet you can go all the way babe."

"Look, Trent, I know we were a couple last time on Total Drama Island, but well you creeped me out during Total Drama Action and we broke up. Why can't you realize that?" replied Gwen. Trent, dejected, turned away.

"Gwen, come on. Give Trent another chance," begged Bridgette. "After all, you might find some of the happiness that Geoff and I found."

"It's true! Besides, being back here's just like one big party waiting to happened!" exclaimed Geoff.

"Yay! Another chance to buy France!" exclaimed Lindsay happily.

"I know!" replied Beth, "And the best part is we're together again. It'll be just as great as the last time I saw Brady. I mean, except for when we parted." With that, Beth turned away nervously to collect her emotions.

"Eh, Cody?" began Ezekiel, "Doo yoo think I could get the girrls to like me bettr if I took lessns from yoo on how to woo the ladies?"

"Yeah, and winning the money wouldn't be a bad start either. The Codemeister knows what the women like. Fame doesn't hurt either. Of course, if you want my services, I might need a cut of your winnings if you win. Not much though, just a couple thousand."

"Finally, a chance to obtain the money that should have been mine last season and more than what I was cheated out of in the first one! Winning this season will be even easier than winning Class Presidency," exclaimed Courtney. "After all, I was a CIT."

"We know, gosh!" retorted Harold. "Besides, you'd merely have fallen to my mad skills eventually anyways."

"Why you! It was your fault I was eliminated in the first place Harold. You lousy, cheating, backstabbing, little, Urgh! And how could you have defeated me? You'd have gone home that day!" shrieked Courtney in her attempt to attack Harold, which was promptly halted by Leshawna.

"Oh no you didn't! I know you're not attacking my man!" asserted Leshawna. Courtney meekly backed down, wishing to avoid an altercation this early in the show; however, Duncan decided he needed to step in.

"Please Leshawna, do us and yourself a favor and find someone better than Doris over there," mocked Duncan.

"What! Why are you standing up for that witch? You broke up with her. She was trying to boss you around, restrain your inner badboy!" replied Leshawna.

"I know, but seeing Princess here makes me give in. I have to win her back!" murmured Duncan as he gazed lustily at Courtney.

"What? You Ogre. We never had anything!" replied Courtney, blushing furiously.

"Look, campers please. I know you're all excited and happy to see each other again, but I'd really like to announce today's challenge. Alas, you've all wasted too much time with your inane yammering and thus your challenge will remain on hold. What fresh horrors await our campers today? Who will be the first to be eliminated? When will Chef fix the Confessional Cam? For these answers and more, stay tuned to Total Drama Redux!" boasted Chris.
