Chapter 1. Got to do something with Conroy.

The last day of the school. Each, from the first- grader to the future student, was waiting for that day at the Ocean Shores. What could we say about those who practically lived with the fresh air of the streets? It seemed incredibly hard to sit through those dumb lessons for Otto and Twister and in neighbor class for Reggie and Sam. Time had practically stood still. Conroy, who didn't seem to notice this, slowly was drifting to sleep, while reading the lesson plan. Seemed like everyone were asleep, unable to take the heat in the classroom. Eddie was simply laying on the desk, with his usual mask taken off. Sherry was daydreaming about the romance with the Hollywood star. Otto, as usual, had seen himself on the top of the world. Twister, who kept pace with him seen Otto by his side in his dreams. That was the reason of his embraced smile, everyone, who somehow didn't drift to sleep could see that. Nobody could guess what was Conroy dreaming about. Although he saw a beautiful lass, who was rising from big lake...They were looking into each other's eyes... Need to feel sorry for the Crazy Town owner. All his dreams, bright and impressive, were connected to the legend, which he had heard in Shore Shaсk a couple of days ago... The café, as it had always been, was overflowing with people. Conroy came to have a banana cocktail, so he could refresh after the hot day. All seats were taken, except for one, where a strange man happened to be sitting. He seemed to be about 40 years old or so. Hands were all in bracelets and his unruly and untidy hair, seemed to remind Conroy of something good and familiar.

-Good day. –Conroy greeted stranger.- Do you mind if I sit here for a little bit?

-As the John Lennon said: There's nothing new under the sun. Peace. Take a seat, you look tired, brother.

-I don't think I have seen you here before. How did you get here?

-Haven't you ever met the free inhabitant, who was trying to achieve the harmony by making music and love?

-So, that means you are hippy, then what brings you here, in town, where people are dependent on human laws?

-She asked me, I couldn't refuse Her desire...

-Who?

-You'll get to know soon, brother. She is the child of a nature. She just don't have the power to resist the call of the love no more. And it seems like she's tired to be alone. She's looking for a chosen one. And you will probably be him.

-Who is she?- Conroy asked with a surprise. The story of an elderly hippy began to scare him.

A beautiful lass from the lake. –he briefly responded. Putting his sunglasses on, he got up from the table and headed off his way, leaving Mr. Blank in confusion.

Conroy couldn't get to sleep all night, no matter how much he tried to push the thought away, a beautiful lass from the lake somehow got back to his mind again. He thought of like she was scary one, yet so charming and delightful...He had heard this story in his childhood. Far away from the city, somewhere in the mountains, a lake could be found. According to the legends, a charming lass happened to live there...

And whoever kisses her, will be her chosen one for the rest of the life.

The next day in the park, Conroy couldn't help but to sleep right. Those nightmares seemed to bug him a lot...

-What's up with you, dude? You look like a tax inspection had been giving you beating up all night.- Otto asked, fulfilling his ordinary head- spinning stunt on the ramp.

-Yeah, you look awful. –Twister added, looking dreamily at his best friend. Nothing could change poor Twister, all his feelings were plainly written on his face.

-You are close to the truth, my friend. I had the terrible night.- Conroy replied.

-What's the matter?- Reggie asked.

-I saw a...lass in my dream.-he sighed.

Sam, who happened to put his roller-blades on at the moment, instantly fell on the ground. Otto just gave him a wicked smile.

-Nothing's going to change your landing on your butt, Squid.

-We'll see about that. –Sammy muttered. –Who's that girl, Conroy?

-She doesn't exist. It's all about that legend, which a man from the café told me. And I can't get it off my head!

-Maybe you should go see a doctor? Who knows what things might be in your head?- Twister put in a remark.

-I think you got him wrong, Twist. –Otto mentioned. –I think he's just in love. Twister looked attentively at his best friend, something moved inside his heart.

-Oh! I get it! But, Conroy, you're not going to kiss her, right? It's disgusting!

-I didn't fall in love with anyone!- Conroy yelled.- I just need to...get some sleep. Have fun without me, okay?- he said then a little bit calmly. -Uh, Conroy went to meet his girlfriend!- Otto laughed.

-Shut up, Otto, it could happen.- Reggie told him.

-Oh, sure, but not with me. There's no human on the whole planet, who can make me feel like that. Right, Twist?

Twister seemed to be distracted from everything, he kept looking at Otto, so he could barely hear his question.

-Seriously, I think something's wrong with Conroy. Why does he bother so much about that stupid legend?

-Sorry, but what's the legend about? –Sam asked.

-It's simple: In the lake, which happens to be in the mountains a girl lives, and if you kiss her, you will have to traipse around her all day and all night. Who needs that?

-And I've heard she makes your dreams come true.- Twister said, switching on his camera.

-I don't believe in this stuff. We just got to do something with Conroy, something's bothering him.
