Bridgette stirred slightly, her head pounding. She slowly opened her eyes, and took in her surroundings. A slow, sinking feeling slowly washed over her as she gathered where she was. 

She had been hoping it was all just a sick nightmare, brought on by pre-wedding jitters. She sat up, rubbing her head, and looked around. Geoff was sleeping next to her, his cowboy hat laying over his face. 

Bridgette looked at her friends, some asleep, some not. Heather was awake, pacing back and forth. She noticed 3 people were missing.

"Where is Courtney, Duncan and Cody?" she asked, waking the rest of them up. Noah slowly yawned and reached over, hoping his hand might come in contact with Cody's shirt, as he had sworn they had fallen asleep next to each other hours before. 

"What the hell?" he murmured, Bridgette stood up, nudging Geoff with her foot. 

"Babe, wake up!" she yelled, Geoff jumped awake, his eyes large

"Who died now?!" he asked, earning death glares from everyone. 

"Courtney and Duncan are missing!" she said. Noah cleared his throat

"And Cody!" he snapped. 

"Oh God... I shouldn't have fallen asleep!" Bridgette said, Heather walked over

"Yeah, it seems like you shouldn't have done a lot of things. Like inviting us to a place where we're all probably gonna die!" she snapped, Bridgette started to cry all over again. 

"Heather, this is not helping!" Geoff snapped, Heather threw her arms up into the air

"IN CASE YOU HAVEN'T NOTICED. NO ONE IS HELPING. NOT EVEN IN THE SLIGHTEST. PEOPLE ARE DYING AND YOU WERE ALL ASLEEP,' she shouted. 

"Says the one who went off to fuck her boy toy!" Gwen snapped, walking over. Heather looked over her shoulder at the goth

"that's pretty rich coming from the boyfriend stealer," Heather hissed. Gwen went to charge at Heather, but Trent pulled her back. 

"Us fighting over high school drama is not what we should be doing right now, ladies," Trent said, his voice stern. Both girls glared at each other and crossed their arms. 

"How about we try to find my boyfriend?" Noah said, his voice dripping in malice. 

"Wait...." Bridgette said, sniffing the air "Do you guys smell that?" 

The group collectively sniffed the air.

"It smells like gas," Gwen said, confusing written all over her face. "And fire?" 

"Maybe... Lightning caught a tree on fire some where." Heather stammered.

"That theory doesn't work... Seems how its pouring outside," Geoff said. 

"Oh God...." Bridgette sobbed "That bastard is going to burn us alive!" as she began to panic, Geoff pulled her in close, whispering into her ear. 

"I am NOT fucking dying in Chris McLean's manor!" Heather yelled, running over towards the doors to the kitchen, to throw them open. Ready to fight whoever was on the other side-

A round of yells and coughing came from behind them, the group turned to see Cody and Duncan rush in. Covered in burns and ash. Their skin black with soot. 

"Secret.... chamber....fireball.... can't...find...Courtney," Duncan gasped between coughs. Noah rushed over and hugged Cody tight, as the smaller brunette coughed up a lung. 

"Where were you guys? What happened?" Heather asked, Duncan was bent over, his hands on his knees. 

"Fuck...Do we have a story for you guys." Cody said, breathing hard.

Courtney groaned, her chest and head were on fire. Her eyes slowly blinked open, they were blurry. She gasped and looked around, realizing she was in some sort of bricked in room. TV cameras were all around her, monitors playing scenes from different seasons of Total Drama. 

She was tied to a chair. Her arms and legs bound by rope so tightly they were sure to leave cuts on her skin. Her clothes were burnt, and she felt stinging on her face from sweat dripping into the burns on her skin. 

The voices of her fellow old costars filled the room, yelling, talking, laughing, crying. 

Courtney squeezed her eyes shut and let out a scream

"Help!" she cried, her voice raspy from breathing in the smoke from the fire "Somebody help me!" 

She knew deep in her heart that her friends couldn't hear her. She begged with a God she didn't believe in to somehow, save her. 

Duncan please save me

She stopped screaming and ducked her head low, her tears dripping down her face as she cried silently. 

Suddenly the room went silent, as every screen went black. She looked up quickly, and began to panic as the weight of the situation sank in

"Please..." she whimpered "Please don't kill me.." 

The screens turned back on, one by one. And she felt her stomach drop. 

Staring back at her, through every screen, was the exact same mask Chef had worn on the episode of Total Drama Island when he hunted the campers for a game. 

She breathed hard "What do you want!?" she yelled 

The person behind the mask laughed, the sound distorted through a voice changer. 

Courtney glared at the screen "You sick fuck! My family will never stop hunting you down!" she threatened, the voice laughed harder. 

"Why..." Courtney asked, her voice barely there anymore "Why are you doing this to us?" 

The laughing stopped slowly. An eerie silence filled the air, as Courtney and whoever this was had a stare down match. Courtney was trying to see if she could recognize someone behind that mask. Eyes. But nothing came to mind. She tried to find some shred of humanity. 

But there was nothing. 

Soulless. 

A shell. 

"C...Chris?" Courtney whispered, her last try. 

The person slowly cocked their head to the side, staying silent. 

Then, they finally spoke. 5 words. 

5 words that would haunt Courtney for the rest of her life... IF she had any life left. 

"You're all gonna die here," the voice said.

Before the screen went black and Courtney was submerged in darkness once again.
