"Last time on Total Drama Minecraft Returns, the final five had to face their biggest fears in the Fear Test challenge. Who won that again? It was Chloe, right? No? Oh yeah, it was the bat. Ech won easily, lasting a whole five minutes against his fear of being forgotten. Probably because he's used to it. Anyway, the rest of the mobs decided to finally get rid of Jamey by voting her off, and they would have succeeded if Chloe hadn't volunteered to go in her place. Apparently, the ocelot believed the Fear Test was "unfair" to Jamey because it was "too traumatic" and the other mobs were "laughing at her". Not sure why that last phrase is in quotation marks, because that actually happened. But yeah, Chloe took the L instead of Jamey. Now it's the final four. What do I have in store? Find out right now, on Total Drama Minecraft Returns!"

***

Remaining Contestants (4): Ech, Pola, Colton, Jamey

***

Both cabins were silent.

Pola was silently furious. Jamey was going to get what she deserved for betraying her, but managed to escape it again! Pola was real tired of that bony horse.

Colton was also silently fuming. They had been so close to eliminating Jamey, and Chloe had to sacrifice herself and ruin it. He knew she was his friend, but he couldn't just forgive her for that.

Jamey was unusually silent. She wasn't sure how to feel after Chloe eliminated herself last challenge. Grateful, sure, but she couldn't show that. Gratitude was a sign of weakness. And Jamey showed no weaknesses.

Ech was silent as always. He didn't want to jinx it, but he was pretty certain he would make it to the final three. Based on past seasons, Ech predicted that whoever won the next challenge would get to choose who to eliminate. He knew both Colton and Pola would choose Jamey. Jamey would probably choose Colton. So Ech was pretty sure he'd continue on the show, but he didn't want to jinx it.

"Challenge time!" Herobrine's voice rang out.

~~~

Colton's Confessional

"Final four. I can do this."

~~~

Pola's Confessional

"I don't even care that I've made it this far. I just want to eliminate Jamey."

~~~

Jamey's Confessional

"It was obvious I would make it this far in the show. I've been saved from elimination twice. Clearly, fate wants me to win."

~~~

Ech's Confessional

"Again, I don't want to jinx it, but I bet I can win this show."

~~~

Herobrine summoned the four mobs to him. "Welcome, final four contestants."

He paused. Silence.

"No one's gonna say anything sarcastic?" Herobrine asked after a few seconds.

Still silence from the final four.

"'Kay well you better talk during the challenge," he grumbled. "Speaking of which, today's challenge will take place entirely underwater!"

There was no audible reaction from the mobs.

Herobrine sighed. "Fine, I'll do it myself." He made his voice higher: "But we did that last season!" He changed back to his normal voice: "Yes, but this time, it will take place in a shipwreck graveyard!"

Herobrine looked to the mobs for reactions. Still nothing.

"You guys are gonna make me lose readers," Herobrine whined. "Eh, who am I kidding, I already lost almost all of them by not updating."

"What?" Pola asked.

"AHA, YOU SPOKE!" Herobrine shouted.

"Can you just get on with it?" Colton asked.

"Fine," the host muttered. "In today's challenge, I will give you all the ability to breathe underwater. You will then venture to an area with multiple shipwrecks—which are new, thanks to 1.13–and search for Poseidon's Trident. There will be other tridents—also a new thing—around the area, but to win, you must find the enchanted one, which is affectionately dubbed 'Poseidon's Trident'. Of course, there will be other obstacles down there such as the Drowned and other random things that I'll think of when we get there. Any questions?"

"What does the winner get?" Jamey asked.

"So you do have questions!" Herobrine exclaimed. "That's probably just to shorten the explanation so people don't skip it, but whatever."

"You're getting annoying," Pola pointed out.

"Okay, okay, fine, I'll stop. The winner gets the choice of who is eliminated next," Herobrine said. "Any other questions?"

No one spoke.

"Good!" Herobrine snapped his fingers, and the mobs were teleported underwater. "Oh by the way, you are allowed to fight each other as well. Good luck!"

~~~

Jamey's Confessional

"The winner chooses who is eliminated? Looks like it's my turn to win again."

~~~

Colton's Confessional

"I need to win so I can eliminate Jamey."

~~~

Pola's Confessional

"I need to win so I can eliminate Jamey."

~~~

Ech's Confessional

"Just as I predicted. The other three are so focused on killing each other, I can easily slip by unnoticed and win. Knock on wood." The bat knocked on the wall of the outhouse.

~~~

Pola sank to the ocean floor and looked around. She was surprised that she didn't just see pure blue everywhere. Instead, the ocean was full of colors and life. Vibrant green kelp was everywhere, swaying back and forth. Fish—visible fish—of all colors were swimming around in random patterns, some in schools, some alone. Colorful coral scattered the ocean floor.

"When did the ocean become so beautiful?" the polar bear whispered.

Herobrine appeared in front of her. "A couple months ago when 1.13 came out." He disappeared.

"Wait, we've been here longer than a couple months?" Pola asked.

Herobrine didn't reply, but Colton, who was standing nearby, did. "Girl, we've been here for almost two years."

"What?!"

Herobrine appeared again. "Stop becoming self aware." He disappeared again.

Before Pola and Colton could say anything else, they heard a watery grumble from nearby. The two of them turned around.

What looked kind of like a Zombie was rambling towards them. But it wasn't a Zombie, as it was living—well, not living, but you know what I mean—underwater. It also had bright, glowing blue eyes and mouth.

"What the Nether is that?!" Colton exclaimed.

"Maybe it's friendly," Pola suggested as it slowly came closer to her.

"I wouldn't let it touch you," Colton warned. "Herobrine said something about the Drowned. This must be one of them."

Pola didn't listen. The Drowned approached her, and slapped her like a normal Zombie would.

"Ow!" The polar bear exclaimed. She began to run away from it.

"Told you," Colton said. He then heard another gurgling groan from right behind him. He turned around to see another Drowned.

"Gah!" He stumbled away from it and collided with Pola. The two of them tumbled to the ground, and then down a water ravine that they happened to be on the cliff of.

The fall was slow, since it was underwater, but it still took them by surprise, and they both cried out. They didn't fall all the way to the ground, however. They landed on the edge of a water-filled cave. The Drowned didn't follow them.

Pola and Colton straightened themselves out and caught their breath.

"I thought Herobrine said we were supposed to be in a shipwreck graveyard," Pola said. "I don't see any sunken ships."

Herobrine appeared again. "That's because you went the other way and fell down a ravine." He disappeared.

"Would you stop doing that?!" Pola shouted.

Herobrine didn't respond.

***

Jamey immediately began to swim towards the shipwreck graveyard when the challenge began. She didn't see any of the other contestants follow her, which was good. Not that it mattered, since she could easily take any of them in a fight.

As the skeleton horse swam forwards, she found multiple sunken ships of different shapes and sizes come into her view. She wasn't sure which one to check first.

Suddenly, a school of codfish swam around her. Several of them slapped her with their tails as they swam past.

"Gah! Get off!" she yelled, sinking to the ocean floor. She couldn't see anything; it was all flashes of colors.

When all the fish were gone, Jamey found herself in front of an opening to a sunken ship.

She shook off what just happened and swam inside.

***

Ech also began to swim towards the shipwreck graveyard, but he was sure Jamey didn't notice him. He watched as a school of cod surrounded her, causing her to yell. He chuckled and continued to swim towards the nearest shipwreck.

As he passed over the ocean floor, he was suddenly flung upwards in a stream of bubbles that he hadn't noticed. Ech was almost shot out of the water, but managed to stay in. He furrowed his brow, confused as to what made that happen.

The bat avoided the bubble stream and swam back down. He looked at the ground, and noticed soul sand. Bubbles were shooting upwards from that block.

"I wonder why that's a thing," Ech muttered. He continued towards the sunken ship.

***

Colton was about to swim back up the ravine, but Pola stopped him.

"Wait. Do you want to work together?" she asked.

Colton frowned. "Not particularly."

"Why not? I'm a nice person," The polar bear protested.

The mule laughed. "You? Nice? When pigs fly."

"I have seen a pig fly, actually," Pola said, remembering Porky and Mooshie.

"Whatever. You're evil. I'm not working with you."

"Evil? How am I evil?"

Colton sighed. "You really want me to go through the list?"

Pola nodded.

"Fine. One, you roasted Chloe for her insecurities during the roast battle. Two, you convinced everyone to eliminate Stella, who was your friend for almost the entire season. Three, you blackmailed Jack into an alliance with you and then got him eliminated in a heartbeat. Four, you killed Porky and Mooshie! Five, even your baby brother that's watching from home can tell you've turned bad. And six, you tried to betray Jamey, and when she betrayed you back, you swore vengeance on her and laughed at her fears."

Pola was silent for a couple seconds. Then, she spoke. "You're right."

Colton was surprised. "You're agreeing with me?"

The polar bear nodded. "I can't believe I've turned evil. Is there any way for me to be good again?"

The mule shrugged. "Don't do those things anymore?"

"I can't be angry at Jamey anymore?" Pola asked.

"Well, Jamey is evil, so you can be. I am," Colton pointed out. "But I don't consider myself entirely good. If you want to be free from all evil again, just try to do good things instead of fighting evil with evil."

Pola nodded. "You're right. I'm gonna try to be good. Thanks, Colton."

The mule nodded. He began to swim up again, but Pola stopped him again.

"Wait. If I'm gonna be good, then I'm gonna work with you and help you win this challenge."

Colton paused. "Fair enough. Let's go."

The two of them began to swim back up the ravine.

***

Jamey swam into the sunken ship, which didn't look like much. It was really just a bunch of ruined wood, sort of like the one they found on the small island a couple episodes ago.

Out of the corner of her eye, Jamey spotted a chest. She eagerly swam over to it and opened it.

Inside was a lot of rotten flesh and old pieces of paper.

"This is all worthless!" Jamey shouted after rummaging through it. She groaned and left the ship.

***

Ech swam into the same ship that Jamey was in. She didn't notice him, and angrily left the ship.

The bat swam back over to the chest and opened it. He picked up one of the old pieces of paper.

It was a treasure map, labeled "Poseidon's Trident".

"Worthless, huh?" the bat laughed to himself.

***

Colton and Pola managed to swim to the top of the ravine. The Drowned had left, so they swam across the ocean floor, through the seaweed and towards the shipwreck graveyard.

As they swam, something larger than a fish swam towards them.

"Shark!" Colton screamed, preparing to swim away.

"Wait, calm down, it's just a dolphin," Pola laughed.

The dolphin looked at them curiously, then made a squeaking sound. It swam around them, nuzzling both.

"It's cute," the polar bear said with a smile.

"Doesn't it bother you that we're the only animals that can speak?" Colton asked, glancing at a passing school of fish.

"Nah, it doesn't bother me at all," the dolphin said in a deep voice.

"Holy Notch!" Colton and Pola screamed, jumping away from it.

Herobrine appeared, laughing. "I'm just kidding. That was me speaking."

"I told you to stop bothering us!" Pola yelled. "Oops. I mean, could you please stop doing that?"

Herobrine frowned. "Fine. I just get lonely sometimes." He disappeared.

The dolphin squeaked again and swam away from them. Pola and Colton shrugged it off and continued swimming to the graveyard.

***

Jamey checked three other sunken ships, and none had any tridents inside.

The skeleton horse groaned. "This is hopeless!"

Suddenly, she heard a watery grumble from behind her.

Jamey turned around. Walking towards her was a Drowned, holding a trident in its hands.

"Poseidon's Trident!" she exclaimed. "Give me that!"

Jamey kicked the Drowned multiple times, killing it easily. She grabbed the trident.

"I win!"

There was silence.

"Hey! Herobrine! I found the trident! It's enchanted and everything!" Jamey yelled again.

"You found a enchanted trident, yes, but you haven't found Poseidon's Trident," Herobrine's voice rang out.

"What? That's cow crap!" Jamey yelled. "I stole this from one of those water zombies! Where else would Poseidon's Trident be?"

"I don't know, check the treasure map that you completely ignored and let Ech take," Herobrine's voice answered. "Oops."

Jamey narrowed her eyes. Ech took it? She didn't know that bat could do anything.

Frustrated, Jamey swung the enchanted trident she had stolen. It sent her soaring quickly through the water.

"Woah, that was cool." Jamey inspected the weapon. "Riptide enchantment? Awesome."

She soared through the water again, and landed atop one of the shipwrecks. She scanned the area, looking for Ech. She didn't see him, but she did see Colton and Pola.

Jamey grinned as she remembered that PVP was allowed. She prepared to swing her trident.

***

Ech studied the treasure map carefully. He swam out of the sunken ship and began to follow the map's course, going through the shipwreck graveyard.

A squid swam by leisurely. Ech watched it.

"Cean?" he asked.

The squid didn't reply, and swam away.  Ech shook his head and kept swimming.

Suddenly, he felt himself get sucked down to the ocean floor. He looked around, confused, and realized he was in another stream of bubbles. This time, the block below him that was creating it was a magma block.

"Minecraft physics don't make any sense," Ech muttered as he pulled himself out of the stream with difficulty.

The bat continued to follow the treasure map's course.

***

Colton and Pola entered the shipwreck graveyard. There were sunken ships everywhere.

"If I were Herobrine, where would I hide a trident?" Colton murmured as they traversed the ocean floor.

"Probably not in one of the ships," Pola suggested.

"What?" Colton asked.

"Think about it. He said the trident was in the shipwreck graveyard, but he didn't say it was in one of the ships. It'd be just like Herobrine to put it outside one of the ships," Pola explained.

"Makes sense," Colton muttered. "But it wouldn't just be out in the open."

"Look!" Pola exclaimed, pointing to some randomly placed blocks of stone bricks and mossy stone bricks. They swam over to it.

"Seems like ruins of some sort," Colton said. He inspected it. "Hey, a chest."

The mule opened it. Inside was a trident. He eagerly pulled it out, but was disappointed to find it was just a normal trident.

"Dang it," he muttered.

Suddenly, the two of them heard a yell rushing towards them.

Colton whipped around, instinctively swinging the trident he had picked up. It clashed with another trident, wielded by Jamey, who had somehow soared towards them at an incredibly high speed.

"You're weak!" the skeleton horse growled, despite the fact that Colton was pushing back her trident against his.

"Am I?" Colton asked. He pulled his trident away and swung it at her head. Jamey ducked and swung her trident upwards, almost hitting Colton.

Pola was nervously swaying back and forth as the two stallions fought. "How can I help?!" she yelled.

"Go find the trident!" Colton yelled, ducking under another of Jamey's swings.

"But I—"

"Just go!" Colton shouted, parrying the enchanted trident with his own once again.

Pola nodded and swam away.

***

Ech was getting closer to Poseidon's Trident using his map.

"This will be an easy win," the bat chuckled.

Suddenly, he heard a watery groan. He turned around, expecting to see a monster behind him. There was a Drowned, but its sights weren't on him. They were on a group of eggs. A turtle was swimming protectively around the eggs, but it looked terrified. Ech knew it wouldn't stand a chance against the Drowned.

(except there's 4 eggs)

The bat looked down at his map, then back up at the turtle and its eggs. He sighed, put the map away, and swam at the Drowned.

***

Jamey jumped away from Colton and began swimming backwards while still looking at him.

"What, are you running away now?" Colton taunted. "I guess sand isn't the only thing you're afraid of!"

Jamey smirked and swung her trident. She flew towards Colton faster than he was expecting, and impaled him in the chest with her trident.

Colton gasped in pain, then disappeared.

Jamey grinned. "Told you you were weak."

***

Pola was swimming around the shipwreck graveyard, but didn't go inside any of the ships. Instead, she searched around them.

"Just keep swimming, just keep swimming," she whispered to herself.

She suddenly swam into very cold water. Pola shivered and looked around, wondering why the temperature had changed so drastically.

Glancing up, she saw an iceberg looming above her. She also saw multiple animals in the water around it.

"Polar bears!" Pola exclaimed happily. She swam up to the iceberg.

"Mom?! Berry?!" she scanned the polar bears, looking for her family. But they were all unfamiliar. They looked at her with curiosity.

Pola sighed, her hopes diminished. "Do any of you happen to know the whereabouts of a Poseidon's Trident?"

One of the polar bears nodded. "Find the cluster of six horn coral. Those are the yellow ones. Poseidon's Trident is buried in a chest underneath it."

"Oh, really? I wasn't expecting any of you to know what that was. I thought Herobrine's lame butt made it up," Pola laughed.

Herobrine appeared in front of her, causing her to jump again. "No u." He disappeared.

Pola sighed and swam back underwater.

***

Ech tried hitting the Drowned with his body, but it didn't even affect it. He was too small and couldn't get enough momentum underwater.

The Drowned reached the turtle eggs. It began to stomp on one of them, much to the turtle's dismay.

"Hey! Stop that!" Ech ordered the Drowned. It paid no attention.

The bat looked around frantically. His gaze landed on a block of soul sand on the ocean floor.

Ech swam over to it and dug it up. He then swam back over to the Drowned, dug the sand underneath it, and placed the soul sand there.

A bubble column was created, and the Drowned was immediately sent flying upwards. It didn't come back down.

"Ha! Take that!" Ech yelled.

The turtle swam over to the bat and nuzzled him. Ech laughed. "That tickles!"

Suddenly, a cracking noise filled the air. I mean water. Both Ech and the turtle looked at the eggs. All four were cracking from the inside.

"Your babies are hatching!" Ech exclaimed to the turtle. They both swam over to watch the baby turtles climb out of their eggs.

The baby turtles made cute little turtle noises and swam around their mother. Then they swam around Ech.

Ech laughed some more. "You guys are so cute."

After another minute or so, Ech got his map back out. "Alright, I have to go find a trident. Bye."

The turtles nuzzled him one more time, causing the bat to grin. He then swam away.

***

Colton opened his eyes. He had respawned back where they started. He looked around, then swam back towards the graveyard.

"Colton!" a voice called from above. The mule looked up to see Pola swimming towards him from an iceberg. "Are you okay? Where's your trident?"

"Jamey killed me and I respawned," he grumbled. "Stupid riptide."

"Oh. Well I know where the Trident is! It's underneath a cluster of six yellow coral," Pola said with excitement.

"Great. Where is that?" Colton asked.

Pola shrugged. "Somewhere in the graveyard. We have to find it."

"Alright. Let's go."

***

"Now, where is that bat with my treasure map?" Jamey wondered aloud.

She soared above the graveyard using her trident's riptide enchantment. The skeleton horse treaded there and scanned the area for Ech.

"Now that I think about it, I never see that bat," Jamey muttered. She looked as hard as she could, but the only movements she saw were schools of fish.

After about half a minute, she gave up and sank back to the ocean floor.

"I guess I'll just find the Trident without the map," Jamey grumbled. She began to swim one way, but heard a small voice.

"Ha! Take that!"

The skeleton horse turned around. It sounded like it was coming from behind a sunken ship. She slowly began to swim around it.

Laughing filled the water. "That tickles!"

Jamey narrowed her eyes. What is he doing? She wasn't even sure if that was Ech's voice, but it definitely wasn't Colton's or Pola's.

"Your babies are hatching!" came the voice again.

Jamey peered around the sunken ship. At first, she didn't see anything. But after craning her neck some more, she spotted a group of turtles.

"You guys are so cute," one of the turtles said.

Jamey shook her head. She realized that wasn't a turtle that had spoken. It was Ech.

"There you are," she whispered. But he didn't have a map. He was playing with the turtles.

After about a minute, Ech spoke again. "Alright, I have to go find a trident. Bye!"

The turtles nuzzled him again. He laughed, then pulled out a map and began to swim in the other direction.

Jamey grinned and prepared to swing her trident.

***

"There's the cluster of yellow coral!" Colton exclaimed.

"Those are red," Pola said.

"Oh." They kept swimming. "There!"

"Those are purple," Pola replied.

"Oh." They kept swimming. "There! Those are definitely yellow!"

"Yeah, but that's only four coral," Pola said. "There has to be six."

Colton groaned. "This sucks."

"Just stay positive," Pola said. "Isn't it beautiful down here?"

"I guess," Colton replied. "It didn't look like this when I found the immunity idol."

Pola shrugged. "The ocean is always changing. It's—hey, a chest!"

"Why even bother?" Colton asked as she opened it. "That's not under six yellow coral."

Pola pulled out two tridents. "You never know when you might need one." She handed him one. "Jamey could come back."

Colton nodded and took it. His eyes then widened with excitement. "Look! Six yellow coral!"

Pola looked and counted. There was indeed a cluster of six horn coral, near some more underwater ruins that almost looked like a house. "You're right! Let's go!"

As they swam towards it, a Drowned ambled out of the house-like ruins.

"Good thing we have our tridents," Pola chuckled.

Then, a dozen more Drowned filed out of the ruins. Their sights were all on the two animals.

"Of course," Colton sighed. The two of them readied their tridents.

***

Ech flew into a mass of very tall kelp. "Did the map really have to take me in here? Why couldn't I have just gone around it?"

He swam through it. It was very maze-like.

"This kinda reminds me of the woodland mansion challenge," he said to himself. "That was the first time I really talked to Jesse. I wonder how he's doing?"

"He's doing pathetic!" a voice yelled from right behind Ech. He instinctively swam upwards, and Jamey flew by, trident out.

How did she see me? Ech wondered. Oh well, she probably doesn't anymore.

Jamey turned and looked directly at the bat. His eyes widened in surprise. She swung her trident. Ech swam away. He made several twists and turns to try and lose her in the kelp.

***

"I don't know if I can do this," Pola murmured as the dozen Drowned approached them.

"You'll be fine," Colton responded. "Just follow my lead."

As the Drowned came closer, Colton charged and swung his trident. The fork connected with the Drowned's head, injuring it.

Pola took his advice and did the same thing to another Drowned. It groaned and tried to swing at her. She dodged and swung back with her trident.

***

"Where did you go?" Jamey called, looking around.

Ech didn't respond. There was silence in the swaying kelp.

"If you won't come out willingly, I'll make you!" Jamey yelled. She swung her trident around, cutting several pieces of kelp. She still didn't see the bat.

The skeleton horse began to swim through the kelp, cutting through as much as she could. Still the bat didn't come out of hiding. But she knew he was still in there somewhere.

Suddenly, she felt herself get sucked down to the ground. She cried out and tried to move, but couldn't. There were bubbles all around her, flowing downwards. She looked down and saw magma blocks all over the floor.

"I don't think Jesse is as pathetic as you right now," Ech's voice was heard.

Jamey looked up and saw the bat just outside the columns of bubbles. He had magma blocks in one wing and the map in the other.

Ech grinned. "Bye bye." He swam away.

***

Colton managed to kill the first Drowned, but there were still many more. He felt a hit from behind and swung his trident. It connected with a Drowned's head.

He kept swinging, whirling through the Drowned as quick as he could. He slowly moved closer to the the cluster of yellow coral.

"I'm Aqua-Mule!" Colton shouted as he killed another Drowned by impaling it with his trident.

He was almost at the coral when he heard a cry. Colton turned around.

Pola was surrounded by five Drowned. She was fighting diligently, but didn't stand a chance against all of them.

Colton sighed and began to make his way back over to her, swinging at the Drowned as he went.

***

Ech studied the treasure map once more. He turned according to the route, and looked up.

There was a cluster of six yellow coral ahead of him. That was exactly where the X on the map was. He grinned and swam towards it, ignoring the Drowned that were battling with Colton and Pola.

The bat was about to begin breaking through the coral when something hit him from behind, sending him flying into a nearby shipwreck. He crashed through the wood and landed inside of it. With a groan, he looked out of the hole his body had made.

Jamey was smirking at him. "Everyone I have faced is pathetic. Especially you."

She begin to dig through the coral.

Ech struggled to get himself upright. He had to stop her, but how?

Some nearby soul sand caught his eye.

***

Pola was getting smacked back and forth by all the Drowned. She was still swinging her trident, but kept missing.

"Help!" she cried as one of the Drowned slapped the trident out of her paws.

Nobody came. The Drowned kept attacking her. Pola closed her eyes as she felt her health dwindling to its end.

But then, she heard a battle cry, and all the undead hands were thrown off her. She opened her eyes to see that Colton had shoved them all away from her and was now swinging at them with his trident.

Pola smiled.

***

Jamey destroyed all the yellow coral. Underneath was a chest. She grinned and prepared to open it.

Suddenly, she felt a stream of bubbles again. But this time, it shot her upwards, out of the water and into the air.

Ech, she growled in her mind as she flew. She moved slightly to her left and swung her trident downwards.

She soared downwards extremely fast because of the riptide enchantment. She saw Ech opening the chest.

Jamey pointed her trident at him, and hit the ocean floor.

Her trident went through the bat.

"I will not lose to a tiny creature like you," she growled as he disappeared.

Jamey dropped her trident and reached into the open chest.

***

Colton stabbed the last Drowned in the face, killing it.

"Thank you for saving me," Pola said.

"No problem," Colton replied. "Now, let's get that—"

"Jamey has found Poseidon's Trident and wins the challenge!" Herobrine's voice rang out.

"What?!" Colton and Pola looked to where the yellow coral had been.

Jamey was standing there, holding an enchanted trident in the air with a triumphant grin on her face.

"Jamey gets to decide who is eliminated next!" Herobrine's voice boomed.

Colton turned back to Pola and glared. "If you hadn't needed saving, I could have gotten the trident first!"

Pola shrank back. "I'm sorry..."

"Sorry doesn't cut it. I know she's gonna choose me for elimination. This is your fault!" Colton yelled.

"See you all at the campfire tonight," Herobrine announced. He snapped his fingers, and the four animals were teleported back to land.

~~~

Pola's Confessional

"Oh, man. I was trying to be nice, and now Colton hates me! Plus, I'm the reason he's about to be eliminated! I guess I'm evil even when I don't try to be..."

~~~

Colton's Confessional

"Well, it's the end of the line for me. This is all Pola's fault! I knew I should've stuck with my gut and not worked with her for that challenge. This was probably her plan all along! She's so evil..."

~~~

Jamey's Confessional

"Nothing can stand in my way. Now it's time to eliminate my biggest enemy."

~~~

Ech's Confessional

"Eh. I was close to winning, but it's whatever. Jamey is definitely choosing Colton to be eliminated. I bet she already forgot that I almost beat her."

~~~

The four remaining mobs sat on logs around the campfire. Herobrine appeared in front of them, a tray of brown mushrooms in hand.

"Congrats on the final three, everyone. Except one of you, of course," he laughed. "Jamey, please come forward and choose who to eliminate."

Jamey grinned maliciously and walked over to Herobrine. She turned and faced the other three mobs.

The skeleton horse spoke. "I am eliminating..."

She opened her mouth, then closed it again as if she were changing her mind. Then she spoke again.

"Ech."

"What?!" Colton and Pola exclaimed.

"What?" Ech asked softly.

"Who?" Herobrine asked.

"That's right, Ech. I know you exist. And I know you were planning on slipping by us all, unnoticed," Jamey said. "But that ain't happening on my watch. You're eliminated, bat."

There was silence. Colton and Pola looked back and forth between Ech and Jamey.

"Who?" Herobrine asked again.

"But I..." Ech mumbled. "You can't even...see me..."

"I'm looking right at you, rat with wings," Jamey snarled. "You turned Jesse soft. This is what you get. No more easy win for you, bat."

"Who? Oh yeah, him," Herobrine said. "Alright. Let's go, Ech." He snapped his fingers, and he and the bat disappeared.

Jamey turned to Colton. "Thought I was gonna eliminate you, huh? No. I'm taking you to the finale, and I will destroy you there so badly, you won't ever want to even look at me again."

Colton gulped.

Jamey then turned to Pola. "Hear that, polar bear? That means you're next." She grinned and walked away.

Pola squeaked.

***

Ech reappeared in the Catapult of Shame. Herobrine teleported next to him.

"Well, this is a surprise," Herobrine said. "I didn't think I'd ever see you in this catapult."

"Really?" Ech asked.

Herobrine nodded. "But that's because I forgot you existed."

The bat sighed. "Of course."

"Any last words, O'Forgotten One?" Herobrine asked.

Ech shrugged. "I jinxed it."

"Yeah you did!" Herobrine laughed. He pulled the lever, and Ech was flung into the night.

Immediately after, the island began to shake. A loud rumbling noise was heard.

Herobrine looked around. "Really? Again with the foreshadowing?"

The island didn't respond because it was an island.

"It's the final three. What more do I have in store for the mobs? Will Jamey succeed at eliminating Pola and destroying Colton? Will Pola ever be able to stop being evil? And who will make it to the finale? Find out next time, on Total Drama Minecraft Returns!" Herobrine said.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~

I found this funny ^

No, I did not choose to eliminate Ech because you all wanted him to win. I've been planning on eliminating him in the final four since I first created the elimination order a long time ago.

Sorry ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

But hey I got this episode up a lot quicker than normal. I wrote most of it on a plane to/from Florida for a college visit. Yeet

Who will make it to the finale? Comment your predictions here!
