The New Girls at Camp

Chapter 1: The Chase, The Catch, and The Defeat.

It was a drab and rainy day at the "We Care for Kids" orphanage. Kaylee and I were looking out the window from the 2nd floor of the orphanage when we heard a door kick open. There weren't many kids here, just about 10 or so, and we didn't really get close to any of them. The only friend I had in the orphanage was Kaylee (Kkay) and the only friend Kkay had was me. We tore our gaze away from the window and tried to find out what had happened.

We rushed to the landing of the stairs and looked over the railing to see two men with guns holding the rest of the orphans' hostage. It had been Lunch, and Kkay and I weren't hungry so we had gone upstairs.

One of them men was threatening the caretaker, Ms.Whing, and asking if there were any other kids in here. I gasped.

"Kkay, what if she says yes?" I asked her, full of worry.

"She wont, she wont…" She replied encouragingly. I looked into her ocean blue eyes and thought this might be the last time I saw her. A shiver ran down my spine.

Ms.Whing looked around the room, counting how many kids there were, when she glanced up at the stairs quickly. She gulped. "No," She said quietly, "no more children."

"Good…" the man smiled, as he shot her three times in the heart. He turned back to the second man and mumbled something to him. The man took out a knife and cut up the kids, who were all younger than Kkay and I, and told them if they ever told anyone about this, they'd come back to kill all of them.

They stood there for a minute as I tapped Kkay on the shoulder. I looked at her and she nodded. We silently walked down the hall and dialed 911 on the 2nd floor phone. They must have heard us because the next thing I know Kkay was running at me and pushing me to the ground. We landed behind the sofa; I looked at her and mouthed 'thanks'. She smiled.

We glanced at the window and ran toward it, knowing we were losing time. "Go!" I shouted at her, as she leapt out the window onto the fire escape. I quickly followed as the men were rushing down the stairs.

We saw a man about to enter his car. Kkay jumped into the passenger side as I grabbed the keys and tossed the man to the ground. "Sorry!" I mumbled. We turned back to look at the door, when we didn't see the men.

"What the Hell do you think you're doing GO!" Kkay screamed, shoving the keys in for me. I hit the gas and we rammed into the car in front of us.

"Damnit!" I screamed. I backed up and raced out onto the street. The men were close behind us, and we needed a way out. I looked around and saw nothing useful so I sped up, just as we passed a police station. A cop came rearing out of the parking lot and followed us. I looked back and saw that the men had slowed down as the cops headed on our tail.

"Slow Down!" Kkay warned. "And what?" I yelled back. "Let them pull me over so they can see that I was speeding, ran a few red lights, and don't have a license?"

She smiled. "So go faster." I smiled back as I hit the gas to go faster. Just as I thought we were about to loose them I had accidentally hit the brakes instead of the gas and I hit my head on the steering wheel. Kkay got a cut on her neck from her seat belt.

I groaned. "Shit!" Kkay yelled. The cops pulled up next to us and I rolled down the window.

"Anything you say can and will be held against you in a court of law." Kkay laughed. I turned and looked at her awkwardly.

"What? I only thought they said that in the movies." She smiled. The cop wasn't laughing.

"Get out of the car ladies." He told us. He handcuffed us and sat us in the back of his car.

"Can you make the sirens go 'whoo-whoo'?" I asked him stupidly. Kkay let out a giggle and he turned to look at me.

"How old are you miss?" He asked. "I believe it's the judges job to ask us questions…not yours…" Kkay said matter-of-factly. I laughed. He glared at her but took us to the courtroom.

"I'm Judge Wilson, what seems to be the case officer?" The judge said as we arrived in the courtroom.

"These two girls were joy riding in a stolen car, speeding, and had run several red lights without a license." He spoke defiantly.

I grinned, so did Kkay, we loved to get into trouble. The judge turned to us, "Would you like to testify?" She asked.

"Test!" Kkay yelled throwing her hands in the air. "We have to take a Test? Are you kidding me? What kind of courtroom are you running here lady?" she added, crossing her arms over her chest. I busted out in laughter, she looked confused, but laughed with me. The judge looked from us to the police officer. "How old are you girls?" she asked.

"15." We replied in unison.

"And what are your names?" She asked us.

"Kkay Costallini and Emily Montelli."

"It just so happens we have openings at Camp Green Lake…"

"The camp for Juvenile Delinquents? The all boys camp?" I asked not believing her.

"Yes." She replied calmly. I folded my arms. "Now, what makes ya think we belong there?" I asked smugly.

"2 years at Camp Green Lake it is."

*hahaha. I love the last names. I re-read it and I don't think I had put my name in it, so I just added it in there., lol. r/r.*
