Hello! Thanks for reading my Holes Fanfic. I really wanted to do a story of what happened to each of the campers' life after CGL.
I don't know if I'll do a series or not, but I really wanted to start of with Zigzag and Squid, because in my opinion, they're like brothers.
Now Somethings I want to clear up.
-This story starts off the next day after Zero and Caveman leave.
- Zigzag and Squid have known each other long before GCL.
- Zigzag and Squid are both 19 (been at CGL for 18 months so they weren't adults in the beginning)
Enjoy!
Chapter 1: Epic Endings
Yesterday was epic for all the campers.
One of the most unforgettable moments since they've step foot here at Camp Green Lake.
To sum it up; Caveman not only saved Zero from the desert, but found the treasure they've apparently been looking for, and uncovered that the camp was run by criminals.
The D-tenters were especially happy. Although they might have treated Zero and Caveman roughly, they were still part of the family. D-tenters stick together.
This was especially true for Zigzag and Squid. They were friends before coming to Camp Green Lake, but now they were like brothers.
The official in charge of juvenile detention centers brought in some new councillors, and said that he will announce his decision about the campers the next day.
The boys we're given the next day to relax. They did not even need to wake at 4. AM.
The next morning, as everyone woke up, Squid was the first to notice that there were two empty cots.
"I guess yesterday really did happen," yawned Squid.
"What do you think is going to happen to us now?" asked Magnet, "You think they'll let us go?"
"They have to," said X-Ray getting up from his cot, "We've been in this hell hole enough,"
As the boys got up, and changed into their jumpsuits, a scrawny old man walked through the door. He was their temporary councillor, Mr Parker.
He looked a lot like the older version of Mr Pendanski. He had way too much sunscreen on his face, and a floppy hat to match.
"Boys, mail call," he announced waving some letters in his hand.
Mr Parker handed out the letters, "Alan, Rex...Theodore," he read. Everyone got one except Zigzag, who looked around, little envious of everyone else's letters in their hands.
Squid noticed his friend's expression, "Don't worry, it probably just got lost in the mail or something,"
"For the past 3 months?" he sarcastically asked.
"Maybe they just wrote down the wrong address," he tried to make him feel better. Zigzag just shrugged as he got out his toothbrush and towel.
"I'm gonna go take a shower," he said. Squid nodded as his friend left the tent.
He finally took a look at his letter. It was from his sister Macie. She would write to him twice every month. She two years younger than Squid, but completely the mature one in the family.
Squid sighed as he thought about home. It's been 18 months since he's been back there. He missed his sister, his room, even his school.
Suddenly, Armpit came running in. "Hey guys, come out here quick!"
"What's happening?" asked Magnet.
"The official guy is going to make an announcement," he exclaimed running back out.
Squid, X-Ray, Twitch and Magnet made their way out of the tent, towards Mr Sir's old office.
All of the campers, including Zigzag who returned, gathered around the shack.
A man, who looked like he was in his mid-40s, came out wearing a business suit holding a clipboard in his hand.
Everyone settled down.
"Now, let me make this quick," he said impatiently, "I know most of you boys have been sent here for something you should be punished for. But after reviewing what those idiots did, I say you had punishment enough."
All the boys started looking at each other, as their eyes widened.
"I'll be calling your families tomorrow to pick you up," he said. The whole camp started cheering. The D-tenters started to jump on each other with happiness, as they found out they'll be free soon.
"We're going home man," exclaimed Squid to Zigzag.
Zigzag smiled, and continued to cheer and embrace the moment.
