I woke up extremely excited and happy. I mean, common who wouldn't be excited about having the chance to win a million bucks,again? I had packed the night before, everything that I needed was folded and packed neatly into my suitcases. Chris's agent called and said that a privet plane would be waiting for me to take me to Toronto where the shows' being filmed, It sucked though because I had to wake up at 6: frickin-30 in the morning to get all my crap together and get to the airport. “Courtney! Get up, we have to get you to the airport by 7:00! lets go!” my mother yelled. I was up anyways, I don't even think I slept, I jumped out of bed and got dressed, grabbed my suitcase and ran out the door. Crap! Forgot my book! I though, I ran back and got it, then flew down the stairs into the kitchen
“Courtney do you really need to use Duncan's picture as a bookmark? Your going to see him everyday.” my mother pointed out. I shyly pushed the picture into the book a little further. “but if he gets voted out then I can look at his picture, wait why are we even talking about this lets go!” I said.
My mom wasn't too happy what I was dating Duncan, “he's a bad influence, he's been to juvey, look at how many piercings he has! Why couldn't you find a nice boy?” she would constantly nag. “Well say goodbye to your brothers first. Drake! Tom! Get down here!” my mother called. Drake was my older but-not-so-smart brother, then Tom my younger brother was just annoying! “aww gonna go make-out with Duncan again Court! Mwuah mwuah mwuah!!” Tom teased. “ Tom shut it before I kick you and destroy all of your stupid toys!” I threatened. “Court, if Duncan hurts you, I'm hurtin him got it?” Drake said. “No need for that” I chuckled.
“Alright that's enough boys ! Court let's go!” my mom said. I said my goodbyes and we drove to the airport. The whole way all she did was nag me and tell me how to act. “Try to behave and be nice! Don't fall under Duncan's influence , remember I see everything that happens on TV and so does the rest of Canada! Blah blah blah” get over it! I steal food one time and I don't stop hearing about it for a month! Finally we reached the airport. There was no way I could miss the plane, because it had a big shiny Chris face painted right on the side. If Chef's the one who's flying this thing, I'm gonna scream I thought. Low and behold there he was sitting right in the pilot's seat. “Courtney, let's just say your lucky that I had a photo shoot to do down here otherwise you would've been flyin your own way” Chris said as he walk in. “ Well mom, bye.” I said as I hugged her “please be good, and remember what your there for” my mom told me.
“Touching, now lets go! lets go!” Chris said. We got on the plane and I sat in my seat, Chris sat across from me. “Alright, here's the deal, I give you a run-down of the set, where you have to go for the challenge and all the stuff ok?”Chris said. “Alright”. So he gave me a map of the set, told me where everything was and gave me the wig that I was suppose to wear “umm why do I have to wear this?” I asked. “ So they don't know it's you at first..duh! I'll boost the ratings if we add some mystery to it” he explained. He took off to go sit with Chef or something in the cock-pit. The next thing I knew we were flying over Toronto. Suddenly I hear a voice through the speakers“alright we're gonna land right on set ! So hang on!” The plane landed and they got me off the plane as quickly as possible. I took my bags with me because I was told that I couldn't go anywhere at first besides set 13, where the bank teller's booth is. I was ticked about that, I had to lug my back halfway across the set! Ridiculous!
I finally found set 13 and put all my stuff behind the counter. I checked out the set first, nothing much there just the counter and some crappy couches. I thought a little bit on how I should act when I see Duncan, act like nothing happened? Act totally ticked (which is how I felt) and beat the living crap out of him, or play it cool, be nice and sweet first then go in for the kill. I was in the middle of deciding when I heard footsteps coming into the room, I quickly pulled on the wig and grabbed a random magazine that was laying on the floor. I had my back to whoever was talking, so I didn't see their face. “Afternoon Mame' thats a great set of legs you got there, but right now I'd like to focus on those lovely hand of yours and get them to start filling this pillowcase with cash..” As soon as I heard the voice, I knew who it was “ Anything else I can do for you....Duncan!” I said as I threw my magazine and wiped off the wig. “IIIIEEEE!!!!!!” Duncan squealed and fainted, uh oh, I think I gave him a heart attack! I looked down only slightly amused, you see your girlfriend, and then you faint! What is that?! And what's with “nice set of legs” your such a pig sometimes! I thought.
As Chris was talking into the camera, I looked at the Gaffers, why are there only three of them? The last episode they had four and they didn't even go to the Gilded Chris Ceremony. The other team came in and Chris explained my whole situation about how I sued the show, I crossed my arms and had a triumphant look on my face, I waved at Duncan and he looked scared and surprised at the same time.“She got voted out fair and square!” Heather complained “Sorry, Heather, but myself and the law firm of Fleckman, Fleckman, Cohen and Grouse would beg to differ. We filed a wrongful dismissal lawsuit against the producers, and won.” I retaliated, there was no way in hell that she was throw a comment my way and me not comment back, she kissed my boyfriend! And said he tasted like street! She's not getting away with that one. “Good news eh Duncan?” Harold said, but Duncan pushed him over, good hit the geek! I thought.
“So, Courtney, since you were our bank teller in the challenge, (good job by the way), you get to decided which team deserves to win first prize” Chris said “ your bag of loot” he tossed a bag of cash over to me. “The The choice is obvious, It's Duncan!” I said confidently crap did I just said Duncan?! “I mean the Gaffers” I corrected hesitanly “Since they were the only team that manage to get it to my wicket.” I finished. Duncan walked over with a very confused look on his face “Congratulations” I said “Thank you?” He said, his voice cracking. I gave him a sly wink as he walked away, that seemed to put a smile on his face “ I've seen manlier men trying on woman's shoes” Heather said. I'll have to have a word with her later..I thought. Chris spoke again “So this means that mean that the Killer grips win second prize!” “ What's second prize” Justin asked “Courtney!” Chris said with glee “for the rest of the game! or... until she's eliminated. I looked over at them with a shocked expression on my face. I later went to the confession cam and complained about it “ Those total drama dirt-bags have some nerve make me second place, they will defiantly be hearing from my lawyer, AGAIN!” as I dialed my phone.
I walked over to my new team,why did I get stuck with the duds? “So Grips, Gaffers, your getaway cars are waiting, better get a move on before the cops arrive” Chris said, nobody really did anything “THAT MEANS GOOOOOO!!” everyone took off and started running, I really had no idea where we were suppose to be going but I sure as hell was going to be the leader of whatever we're doing! We got to the top of the hill and see a big pile of junk, Chris said that we have to build our getaway cars, how are a bunch of 16 year old going to build a car!? I got Lard-o, “hot” guy that doesn't do anything and Barbie and her nerdy pal! We're screwed! I started to try to make sense of how to build this thing. I was picking up parts and seeing if they looked familiar, I picked up some pipe-thingy and suddenly heard a yelp from the other team, It looked like their go-cart? Was pretty much done, crap! That's it! We're going to loose if I don't whip these losers into shape!
Justin was watching the other team. “Ignore the sideshow and start putting together the chassy” I commanded “Is there something I can do that won't get grease on my epidermis?” he asked “your kidding right?” I said with an unamused look “hand-modeling is what put me on the map!” he said “Obviously that would be the map of useless-ville!” I hollered “ how did I get stuck over here! where are the others anyway?!” IDIOTS! I swear I don't think I could be on a more useless team! I thought as I dug through the parts. I popped out when I heard a reviving engine. “Hey Courtney!! Maybe you'll get to see more than just the back of me when the teams merge!” Duncan teased behind the wheel of his working go-cart “At this point.. I'll take it!” I yelled back “Let's go Casanova!” Heather said as the drove away.ARE YOU FREAKING KIDDING ME?!? THEY'RE ALREADY DRIVING AWAY AND WE'RE NOT EVEN STARTED!! That was it! I was mad!.“We need to be starting this challenge yesterday! where are our wheels!? where's our TEAM!?” I said, starting to loose it a little. Beth, Owen and Lindsay came back up the hill “Here we are!! we had to re-wire his jaw with my spare hair-elastics, but that's the good news..” Beth said “w-whats the bad?” I asked nevously. Lindsay pulled out the wheels “These are kinda toast..” She said “TOAST!?” Owen said, Beth slapped him. Then I had an idea, “No wheels does not mean it's over for us! we're gonna have to improvise!” I said
I got the team to put the car together but use us as the wheels. We started to run down the hill. If we can run fast enough then maybe we can catch up with the Gaffers. “Faster you dead-beats! the team's aren't called the Gaffers and [/i]The Slackers! now MOVE! MUSH MUSH!!” I screamed “ mush? We're not sled dogs!” Beth pointed out “Of course you aren't, because if you were, this one would have eaten you!” I said pointing to Owen. We raced down the hill, as we were running I saw where the Gaffers must have drove into things, finally we saw their cart, we were getting really close to them, then their cart broke down! [i]We passed them! I thought “ I knew I could win this! even with a teams of complete duds!” I said to myself “ Faster! Faster!” I commanded we were right at the finish line when all of a sudden, the cart broke down! The Gaffers passed us “GRAAAAHHHH!!” I screamed as the went by “I WILL NOT BE SECOND PLAAAACE!” “Wanna bet?” Chris said, I gave him an evil stare. I was SO MAD! I can't believe we lost, I mean I was leading them, we should of won!
Later at the Gilded Chris Ceremony I calmed down, because I knew no matter what I was safe. We all sat on the benches, I was listening to Chris when all of a sudden one of Owen's stupid mouth elastic things hit me in the eye! “OWW!” I yelped, does this show not like my eye or something!? This is the third freaking time! When Chris was done telling the others that they couldn't' vote me off, we got our voting remotes, I voted for Owen, he broke our tires, he's annoying and he's a weak link, he has to go. When we were all done Chef slid down a rope and gave the results to Chris “and the Gilded Chris Awards go to....Beth, Lindsay, Justin..” Chris looked at his paper “why do I have four votes to boot out Courtney when I specifically said you couldn't!” they tried to vote me off? Even thought they probably wouldn't have got as far as we did without me?! JERKS! I thought “I guess we couldn't help ourselves” Justin said “No matter what, my finger would only press the Courtney button!” Lindsay said “Well that leaves us with only one vote that counts” Chris explained “Owen.. you've been eliminated” I said cooly. The rest of the team protested “He lost the game for us guys! HELLO!!” I said, trying to convince my team “anything in your contract that stops him from speaking?” Chris said“ummm no.. but!” I started then Chris butted in “ then a little light over here” And with that it was my cue to leave, happy that I didn't have to listen to the happy-joy lard boy's speech.
I walked over to the trailers, I saw that the light was on in the guys trailer, Duncan and Harold were talking when all of a sudden Harold went running out of the trailer. I quickly went into the girl's and found Heather. “ Hello Courtney”she said, in a fake-sweet voice. “Oh no! Don't play “nice girl” with me! Not only does everyone hate you, but you kissed my boyfriend , so back off!” I said “All I did was say hi, and if you were watching the show correctly, we kissed for a challenge and neither of us were to eager to do it” She said. “Whatever, just tell me where my bunk is” I said. “over there” she pointed “everyone gets their own bunk now but dumb and dumber still sleep in the same one.” as I was unloading my things Lindsay and Beth walked in “CHOLE!! It's like soooo awesome to have you back!!” Lindsay squealed “It's Courtney” I said.
“Ooo what books are you reading?” Beth said starting to pick up my book “no don't touch-” She dropped the book and the picture of Duncan came out “oh how adorable, a picture of everyone's favourite criminal” Heather said picking up the photo and examining it “too bad he's on my team” She said with a wicked smile. Anger was boiling up inside me.“give.me.the.picture.back” I said through clenched teeth. “ No, I don't think so, this is a rather nice picture of him...” I ran across the room and tackled her “GIVE ME MY DAMN PICTURE!” I said while slapping and hitting her “here jezz! I was only teasing anyway, didn't know you gonna flip like that” I took my picture back “Heather, don't screw with me, because not only can I kick ass in a court room, I can kick yours in three seconds flat” I said confidently. Beth and Lindsay didn't even notice our fight that much, they were talking about Justin and boys and crap like that. I put on my pajamas and climbed into my bottom bunk and fell asleep, dreaming of me and Duncan kicking Heathers ass!
