The night at lake white eye
"So ken how far 'till we get to your cabin? It really, really hot in here." Davis asked
Ken sighed. It was really hot. Tai's car was a piece of junk. No air-conditioning, no radio, manual windows and it was cramped! Davis wasn't the only one tired of the trip.
"Soon Davis" Ken said bluntly. Plainly the trip was affecting everyone.
Trying to change the subject, Sora said "Wow, ken ive never heard of lake white eye, but, these cabins are huge! Your cabin must be awesome!"
Ken looked at her. Spark back in his up till now dull blue eyes.
"its awesome allright,but…" he looked out the windows seeing a big rich cabin rush by. "…its very, unique." He looked back at her almost an evil look in his eye. "the reaction of most people is 'its haunted' of course it isn't, but it was the first one on the lake so it old, been with my family for a long time. Turn here.
Ken looked at the Digidestined, their eyes were wide.
They saw a cramped, old, dirty cabin. Blue paint was chipping. The dock was of scrap wood and metal. Two old hammocks hung from birch trees, and the little grass there was, was left to grow wildly. There was a picnic table (that had seen many a winter) and a fireplace. An old shed was also blue and a mighty eagle was painted.
It wasn't much better inside. It was dark there were three doors and a living room kitchen in one.
There were paintings on old movies and statues on Frankenstein and his bride.
"ok, girls in that room boys in this one. This is the bathroom, don't worry the outhouse isn't used much anymore. Ken explained and gestured to the doors.
They unpack and walked outside. No one wanted to stay indoors.
Sora, Kari and Yolei took out the paddleboat, matt, Tk, and Cody took the rowboat and Tai took out the S.S.alligator. it had two alligators painter on each end. The S.S. alligator is a canoe.
Izzy was on the bench updating his laptop and trying to explain how to work a computer to Joe.
Ken and Davis shared the larger hammock.
"so why is it called lake white eye?" Davis asked.
"if you look at it from above it looks like an open eye, and if a full moon shines on if just right the water will look white, or so they say." Ken answered.
Davis sat up and looked at his friend, "full moon huh? There will be one, maybe we'll see it!"
Ken looked at his friend's excited eyes and smiled "yeah, maybe."
"Ken is that you?" a voice called.
The surprise knocked Davis out of the hammock. Ken sat up and leaned on his elbows. "yeah Elliot! Come on over, is Chris there with you?" ken shouted
"I'm here!" Chris shouted back.
The tow boys walked over. Elliot had light blond hair and blue eyes Chris had orange tinted blond hair and green eyes.
Elliot wore a tight black t-shirt and a black choker with nave jeans. And Chris wore a white shirt with a tan over coat and blue jeans. Besides that they were identical.
"who's you friend ken?" Elliot asked
"this is Davis. Izzy and Joe are over there and everyone else is on the lake. Davis this is Chris and Elliot. They're twins."
Davis looked them over. Chris stood tall with good posture and Elliot had his back to the nearest tree, arms and legs crossed. They may have looked alive but something told him they were very different.
"when every one's back we can go out on our pontoon boat." Chris said
"sounds great! Ours is kinda temperamental." Ken said and looked at their pontoon boat. They bought it used so it was already old and, well, ugly. But Ken and Sam did their best to fix it. The pontoons were in good shape but the engine was kind of a pain, it didn't all ways work. The canopy was 60's blue and was ripped. The guardrails were rusty and the carpet felt like fake grass and was black and blue.
The boys' was in very good shape with shiny sliver chrome and a red/gold canopy, and ever a new engine that the boys fix so it could go faster then ever, they called it the "custom gear"
While waiting for every one to get back they talked and took out two decks of cards. They played California speed and war.
Finally everyone got back. By then it was kind of dark but it didn't matter there were lights on the boat as well. Since there was no one on the lake they put the boat into "custom gear." They were out for a half an hour then it went haywire, sending the boat soaring.
Elliot flew to the back of the boat trying the fix the engine or stop it wile the boat did a "pop-o-wheelie"
The boat jerked then sped up more, then something terrible happened, Yolei was thrown out of the boat. Ken jumped in after her to help her swim to shore.
Meanwhile everyone on the boat was either trying to slow it down steer or look for sighs of Yolei or ken. After a lot of yelling, going through the canal to the connecting lake, they slowed down and stopped.
"were stuck!" Elliot declared.
"terrific" Matt said and plopped into his chair.
Tai as the team leader said "what are the chances of Matt and I swimming back to shore and getting the row boat and saving the rest of you?"
"Slim, considering the wind, waves, how cold it is, how dark it is and how far, you really have no chance. Even if you did make it you would be to tired to come get us" Izzy said
"you could set sick as well." Joe said
" on the bright side its not raining, we have towels for the night and a great story for home, besides Ken'll come get us at any time now." Davis said.
"but they don't even know were in trouble." Sora said
"How can this get any worse?" Izzy shouted.
At that moment….it rained.
"I thought we told him not to say that anymore." Tai whispered to Matt.
So cold and wet they huddled under the canopy hoping ken and Yolei were safe and coming to get them, unfortunately neither were correct.
