Okay so I have about 5 stories written or half way written and this
is my favorite so I'm posting this one.
Disclaimer: I do not own any characters or places (or the idea of digging holes) from the book holes.
Please Review. ---------------------------------------------------
On July 15th Shane Rider is sitting in the courtroom in Phoenix, Arizona. It is about 90 degrees outside and even hotter in the courthouse.
"Shane Rider, you have been accused of setting off illegal fire crackers early in the morning on the fourth of July. Is that correct?" the judge asks her.
"Yeah, They weren't that loud ya know. I had some huge ones planned for later on that day but I was arrested." Shane says.
"That's nice. Well I see here that you can go to jail or Camp Green Lake. Which would you prefer?" the judge tells her.
"I guess the camp place."
"Ok, Two years at Camp Green Lake. Court dismissed." the judge announced.
Shane's best friend, Alex, comes over to her before she is led out .
"Come on, my mom's waiting to take us home" he tells her.
"Okay."
They go outside and see Alex's mom waiting for them.
"Hi, Aunt Kate." Shane says.
"Hey, Shane. When you get home I want you to start packing" she says.
"Okay." Shane said.
They drive home without anyone talking and when they get there Shane and Alex go up to their room.
"You're really gonna. I'm going to miss ya cuz." Alex says.
"I'll write, besides it's only two years." Shane says as if it's no big deal.
"ONLY! Do you know what it's gonna be like with my only best friend gone for two years? And you won't be there when those jerks start bothering me again." "Yes I will. Just tell them that if I hear that they keep botherin my cousin, then when I get back I'll show them what those fire crackers can do to somebody." Shane says laughing.
After Shane packs and eats dinner she decides to go to sleep. The next morning Aunt Kate wakes her up at about 8.
"It's too early to get up. Let me sleep." Shane says half asleep.
"Shane get up now. The bus ride to Texas is a long one." Aunt Kate says.
"Okay, okay. I'll get up" Shane says goodbye to her cousin and aunt, then gets on the bus. There was nobody else on the bus except for the driver and a guard. The guard tells her to sit in the third seat and he handcuffs her left wrist to the seat in front of her. She falls asleep after about an hour.
~*~Her Dream (a flashback too)~*~
"Hey, you missed." a 13 year old girl said laughing.
"Throw it back." her twin brother, Jason, said.
The girl throws it, but it goes over his head. He chases after it but it lands in the lake.
"Jes, I don't think we can play Frisbee anymore" Jason yells.
"Okay. Lets go back to mom and dad then." She suggests.
"Finished already?" their mom asks.
"Yeah, Jessi threw the Frisbee in the lake." Jason said
"I didn't mean to" Jessi said.
After a while the twins got bored.
"Can we go home now?" Jason asks.
"Yeah, if you want." their dad says.
They all get in the car to go home. At the light they drove through it like any other time because it was green. But this time a car came speeding through the red light and crashed into them. Their parents were killed instantly, so was the driver of the car who hit them. Jessi and Jason were knocked unconsious. When Shane woke up she was in the hospital laying across from her brother.
~*~End Dream~*~
Shane wakes up to a loud bark.
"Xander, be quiet boy. You're lucky they let you come with me." Shane whispers to him.
She writes in her notebook for most of the rest of the way there. When they get to the camp she notices that there are no girls and all the boys are digging holes. She steps off the bus and had Xander's leash in her hand. She has her hair pulled back and is wearing dark sunglasses and baggy pants. She slung her bag over her shoulder and follows the guard into a cabin. A man in a cowboy hat is sitting behind the desk.
"Hmmm...Shane Rider, only family is an Aunt Kate, Cousin Alex, and dog Xander?" the man says.
Shane nods.
"Well listen here Shane, my name is Mr.Sir. Whenever you talk to me you will address me by my name. Is that clear?"
"Yes, Mr.Sir."
"You are the only girl here and that dog wouldn't be here if the warden didn't think that he would be nice to have around. Every day you are to dig a hole five feet deep and five feet wide. Your shovel is your measuring stick. You will be given two uniforms. One set is your work clothes, the other is set is to relax in. Every three days you work clothes will be washed and your other set will become your work clothes. And this isn't a girl scout camp."
