It is getting close to the end of the school year, and for a class field trip Mr. Simons wants to take his class to the jungle. Will Arnold finally reunite with his parents? Are they still alive? And the biggest question is, will his relationship with Helga survive, when a much bigger threat comes into their lives?

I really wish they made the jungle movie, I would have loved to see them finally get together!

It was already approaching, the last few weeks of May, and it was another school day. Arnold was helping Helga with a math problem she couldn't figure out. The past eight months have gone by without anymore problems since the whole incident with Ashley, James and Summer. Arnold and Helga were happy that they could finally be together without anymore problems and jealous people trying to break them out. They didn't have to worry about that anymore.

Mr. Simons entered the classroom and went over to the chalkboard. "Class, I have a big announcement to make." He said trying to get their attention.

"Please don't be another new student." Helga muttered to herself.

"Since the ending of the school year is approaching, I wanted to take you guys on a special field trip. This year I was hopping we could go to the jungle!"

Arnold's eyes widened with surprise. "The jungle?"

"That's where your parents are." Helga whispered to him.

Mr. Simons went on. "We can leave for the trip tomorrow morning so we can catch our bus."

During free period, Arnold was walking with Gerald in the halls. "I can't believe this, we're actually going to the jungle for our class field trip." Arnold told him.

"I know man, that's where your parents are."

"I have an idea Gerald. I'm going to try and search for my parents and find out if they're still alive." Arnold explained. "This is going to be the best field trip ever!"

"We could swing on ropes and vines, go exploring, and it would be the perfect place to plan dates with Helga!" Arnold went on.

Arnold spotted Helga at her locker and walked over to her. "Hey Helga. Are you excited for the field trip?" He asked.

"Yeah. I hear that it's going to be really adventurous." She answered.

Arnold smiled. "I got you a nice gift so we could always be together no matter how far apart we are."

When Helga closed her eyes, Arnold went behind her back and put a silver necklace with a gold heart symbol. When Helga opened her eyes, she couldn't believe how beautiful the necklace was. She was too stunned to speak.

"Wow. It's, its beautiful Arnold." She finally said.

"I know, it's almost as beautiful as you are." He told her.

She blushed. "Did you really mean it when you said we could be together through out this whole trip?" She asked.

"Of course. What would a trip really be if I couldn't spend it with you?" He replied.

She chuckled a little.

The last bell rang, which meant that it was already time to go home. Arnold couldn't wait to tell his grandparents the news. He rushed home with excitement.

"Howdy shortman." Phil said.

"I have some great news for you. Mr. Simons is going to take us to the jungle for a class field trip!" Arnold exclaimed.

"The jungle? But that's where your parents are."

"I know. I'm finally going to reunite with them. I haven't seen them since I was little and I'll get to surprise them."

"Well, I'm very happy for you Arnold. The jungle seems like a very adventurous place for a class field trip. You and your classmates are so lucky." Phil told him.

Arnold told the rest of the boarders his news and they were happy for him.

At the patakis household, nothing was happy there like at Arnold's place. The TV was way too loud, her parents were fighting and arguing about stupid things and there were a lot of flies in the living room, cause Big Bob left a bag of potato chips on the table unsealed. Helga couldn't wait for tomorrow, and she would be away from her parents for about two weeks.

As Helga was about to go upstairs to her room, Bob stopped her. "Whoa, slow down Olga."

"Dad it's Helga." She corrected.

"I told you to keep the name tag I gave you and we wouldn't be having this kind of problem. Get your but down here and sit on the couch, I have some news for you."

Helga's happiness faded away when she heard the news.

At Arnold's place. Arnold was in his room then all of a sudden his phone rang, it was Helga. "Hello?"

"Hey Arnold." She said trying not to break into tears.

He became concerned. "What happened?"

"I have some bad news but I'm not sure how to break it to you." She explained.

"What happened? You can't go on the trip!" He panicked.

"No, that's not it."

"Oh thank god." He sighed with relief.

"It's worse."

In Helga's bedroom, she had some cardboard boxes with stuff in there and there were a few trucks parked outside her window.

"What do you mean?" Arnold asked confused.

"We're...moving." She answered.

Arnold's heart skipped a beat and he felt like he was going to break down at any second. "When?" He choked back his tears.

"The second after our field trip is over."

She couldn't control herself anymore; she just had to cry. She hung up without saying goodbye, and then she buried her face in the pillow and began to cry.

Arnold couldn't believe what he was hearing. Helga G Pataki was going to move? The girl he thought that he hated and fell in love with was going to leave him? He felt so heartbroken and betrayed. Not by Helga, but the fact that she had to move was betrayal itself.

He sighed as he put the phone back in its charger, turned off the lights and got some sleep. He had good dreams about finally reuniting with his parents, but bad dreams of losing Helga and never seeing her again.

Helga had nightmares too about losing Arnold. She decided that she wasn't going to just sit around and cry anymore. She was going to make sure that her and Arnold have the best vacation together ever, and then when it was time she would figure out her next plan.
