AUTHOR's NOTE:

The 9 kids going to this camp are my own characters
Devin sat at the train station waiting for the train to come, since there had been nothing better to do than wait and goof on an iPod, the Australian had been sick of listening to her music through her crappy headphones, so she took them off and let the machine play the music freely. Devin had always had a thing for hardcore rock music, both of her parents played genres ranging close to hers, and occasionally some hits from the 80's, which Devin did enjoy as well. Dev picked up the hunk of metal and fragile glass people normally referred to as an iPod, she slid her finger up and down the touch screen and selected Toxicity by System of a Down, since there had been literally nobody in the train station, she felt that she could listen to it without getting stared at, Devin knew that not everybody liked the same tunes and she accepted that.
"Oh my god no way!" said an unrecognized voice to Devin's ears, the Australian swiftly turned around to see a tall girl with long light brown curly hair and icy blue eyes, Devin's deep blue eyes shot around, confused of the girl's appearance, "The song! I love that song!" the girl stated, then she gleefully made her way over to the bench Devin was seated on, she sat right next to Devin, Dev smiled. "So, this is the train to… camp…" the girl began as she pulled out a slip, "Mann Co?" she stated, as she turned her glance from the paper to Devin, "Well, yeah, when it gets 'ere it will be." Devin said smiling, happy to have some company. "Cool, what is your name?" the tall girl asked. "Devin, and you?" Dev replied. "I'm Julie." The girl introduced, there was a little moment of silence when Julie spoke up, "So what brings you to this camp Mann Co?" Julie asked, "Uh, well my parents wanted me out of the house for the summer, so here Oi am, otherwise Oi would be at home playing World of Warcraft." Devin replied, "Haha! Nice, I play that game too, and I would probably be doing the same thing, that is, if it wasn't for me coming from a military family" Julie replied, "Well! There's another thing we have in common! Only Oi don't come from a military family." Devin said. Julie was about to begin another sentence when there was the sound of quick pace pitter-patter coming their way. Julie and Devin looked around for the source of the sound to discover a blonde girl running towards the two girls sitting on the bench.
The running girl approached Devin and Julie, she halted in front of the two and began to pant, "Train to Camp Mann Co?" she said whilst panting, "Yup! Come and join the party!" Devin said, the girl then sat down on the bench that Julie and Devin occupied, "So what should we call you?" Julie said smiling, "The name's Brooklyn, but people call me Brookie." The girl introduced, she appeared to have a Boston accent filtering her voice, Brookie was wearing dark blue baggy track pants that had clearly seen better days, she had a stained yellow t-shirt on and duct-taped runners, with her she had a small purple suitcase that didn't look like it would serve much on a vacation, let alone going to any form of a summer camp, but then again the pamphlet they all must have received clearly stating that they weren't to bring much luggage, perhaps Brookie took this very seriously. "So what are you guy's names?" Brookie asked. "Well, I'm Julie and this is Devin" Julie said pointing at Devin, who then waved over at Brookie.
"So… um, how have we all been?" Brookie said, trying to begin a conversation, "I'm good, glad to be out of the house that's for sure, I come from a military family, so things can get rough." Julie said, "Ah yeah, I get it." Brookie replied, then Brookie turned her glance over to Devin, "So how about you Devin?" Brookie continued. "Uh, Oi'm fine, Oi am just glad to have company really, Oi have been sittin' 'ere all mornin' which Oi have to admit was quite peaceful." Devin replied, "Oh yeah, I take it you were tha first one here?" replied Brook. "Yeah," Devin replied. "Coo Coo" Julie said.
"Anybody know how many people are coming?" Julie asked, "Sorry I don't have the slip thing, my mom took it before I got to look at it, for me it was; go to this camp, or go to bootcamp." she continued. Devin took out her slip and quickly glanced over it, "Uh, it says noine, only noine for some reason, Man this is gunna be a real small camp Oi sappose." Devin stated. "Yeah no kiddin. Hey Dev, are you from Australia?" Julie asked. "Are you from America?" Devin began, then she laughed and finished her sentence, "Yes Oi'm from Australia." she said still laughing a little, "Nice, where abouts?" Julie asked. "Adelaide." Devin said, "Where are you guys from?" Devin asked. "I'm from Arizona" Julie said, "I'm from Boston." Brookie said.
The three girls had been chatting for what felt like twenty minutes when a boy had been nervously sauntering towards them, "Who's that?" Brookie said pointing a finger to the boy's direction, "Must be another camp-goer." Julie said, "Well the chances are high, taking it that there is no other living soul here." Devin said. The boy had gotten closer, he was dragging a medium sized black suitcase behind him, he stopped by the trio of girls and looked at his slip of paper, he then looked up at the sign and silently sat down with the trio, the three girls looked at him, "You goin' to Camp Mann Co. too?" Brookie asked, the boy did not move his head, but instead looked over at Brookie from the corner of his eye, he then nodded in response to Brookie, "Wot's yer name mate?" Devin asked, the boy tried his best to keep to himself as she nervously looked over, "Kiefer," he said, quietly, but easy enough to hear, all the others nodded in response, "Nice name, it's like that one actor… Kiefer Sutherland." Devin commented. "Ja" Replied Kiefer. "You from Germany?" Brookie asked. Kiefer nodded.
After Kiefer had arrived, it didn't take long for others to arrive, which was only really five others, adding to a grand total of nine. Marina, Latryka, Nellie, Rose, and Lukas, it had went from a small conversation between three or four people to a shouting fest between nine, that was until they were interrupted by an incoming train…
So well, that was the first chapter… on to the next…
