Journey
"Man it's hot in here!" Gold complained.
"Well what am I supposed to do about it?"Ginger, who was usually quiet, snapped.
"I dunno, your aunts the warden and we're not delinquents so maybe you can ask for the air conditioning to be turned on. Oh, and the guard to uncuff us maybe!"
"Excuse me guard,"Ginger asked politely, " Can you uncuff us? And possible turn on the air conditioning?"
"No way girlie," the guard growled.
"Excuse me?" Neon yelled, "Excuse me? This girl right here is the warden's niece and you tell her that you will not uncuff us? We're not even delinquents! We're here because there was a parents evening at our school and there was a fire with all our parents dying in it! How do you think we feel? We're here to live with the Warden of Camp Green Lake! Not to slave away in the hot oven that is Texas!"
The guard grumbled but he undid their handcuffs anyway.
"There's no air conditioning in this bus. Sorry, your highnesses,"
Star, Gold, Myth, Crazy, Ginger, Pepper and Neon were in a dusty yellow school bus, going to Ginger's aunt's camp for male delinquents, Camp Green Lake.
"Gosh, I hope we're here soon Star. It's like an oven in here," Myth grumbled.
"I know. And even worse, Ginger says it's gonna be hotter," Star frowned.
"Ugh," Myth groaned.
"HEY!" Crazy yelled suddenly.
"What?" they all yelled back.
"That ant just waved at me," she said, pointing at the bug that was on the window.
"Oh Crazy. . ." Pepper muttered.
"We're here. Get offa my bus," the driver said gruffly.
The girls grabbed their bags and hopped off of the bus. They shielded their eyes as the hot glare of the sun hit them.
"Gawd Ginger. You were right. I preffered it on the bus," Star moaned.
A dorky man wearing a floppy sunhat, kneesocks and sandals hopped up to them.
"Hello girls! My name is Mr Pendanski. This way to the Warden's cabin," he said, bounded towards a large brown building. The girls exchanged a look and followed him. When they got there, he knocked on the door.
"Hello girlies!" a pretty lady answered the door.
"Auntie Lou!" The girls screeched and hugged her.
"Okay girls, let's go in and have some tea before I take you to your cabin," the Warden laughed.
They walked inside and Mr Pendanski disappeared. The living room had pink walls and white leather sofa's. There was a glass coffee table in the middle and a white, fluffy rug.
"So girls, you are here to live with me. I just need to go over your names as it has been so long. I know Nicole obviously."
"Actually, call me Ginger. Everyone does." Ginger smiled.
"Okay Ginger. And you are?" she said, pointing at a pretty blonde girl sitting opposite her.
"Heather, but please call me Star."
"You?" she asked, pointing at the pretty brunette sitting next to Star.
"Ivana. Please call me Gold though."
"You?" She pointed to the girl with glasses next to Ginger.
"Jaynie, but everybody calls me Pepper."
"Okay, and you are?" she asked again, looking at a pretty Italian girl.
"Eleanor. Everyone calls me Crazy though. I don't know why," she said, letting out a high pitched laugh.
"Erm, ok. You?" the tall girl next to Crazy answered this one.
"Lucy. Call me Myth."
"And finally, you?" the final girl was Asian, with black hair and a blue streak.
"My name is Alex, call me Neon please," she said calmly.
"You girls are just as bad as the boys with all their nicknames. Well, come on. Let's go to your cabins," she said, leading them out towards a silvery cabin with stars on it.
"Oh wow Auntie Lou! This place is amazing!" Ginger yelled.
"I know. I spoke to Ginger earlier and asked her what colours you would like for your rooms. Star, you are in the purple one, Gold,you are in the gold one, Neon, yours is multicoloured, Myth, I had dragons and fairies painted on your bedroom's walls specially, it should be the one with the arched door, Ginger, yours is orange, Pepper, yours is blue and Crazy I gave you yellow."
"Wow! This place will be amazing!" Crazy exclaimed.
"There's food in the fridge and my phone number is by the phone in every room if you need me. That seems all, so I will go to my cabin and check up on you later," Aunt Lou said, leaving the cabin.
"Man, I can't believe we get to stay here!" Star exclaimed as she ran into her room.
"There are laptops in our rooms!" Gold yelled.
"Ginger, I love your aunt!" Crazy said, pulling Ginger into a big bear hug.
"Boys, Sun, Luxury. . . This place has everything!" Neon yelled.
"Seriously, I don't know how this place could get any better!" Pepper yelled. Only Myth was quiet.
"Myth? Do you like it here?" Neon asked.
"They. . . they. . . they're outside," she said quietly from her room.
"Whose outside?" Pepper asked, walking into Myth's room. She looked through the window and her jaw dropped open.
"Um. . . guys, I think you should see this," she said.
