This is my first attempt at a 'Camp Rock' story, which by the way 'Camp Rock' was awesome, although some parts had me wishing there were some changes, it was an overall enjoyable movie. As I write this I hope to whip an awesome concoction of a story. I'm a bit rusty, so I apologize in advance. Be sure to give me reviews, telling me what I might be missing or just to praise me, haha, I'd rather any 'hate' reviews to be private messaged.
I also apologize if some chapters tend go a bit slow, but we need to have those 'dull' chapters to build up to the larger ones. Along with back stories, which I'll most likely do in italics throughout the story, just to give some closure on certain happenings in the story, and please don't hesitate to message me with ideas, or questions, because I have my hiptop (side kick) attached to this account so emails directly go to me, and responses will be as soon as I can reply.
Here goes nothing.
Chapter 1 – Something's never change.
Camp Rock. If someone decided to look up the definition, they would find that it has two meanings. To some camp rock was just as excuse to get away, and to others, it was everything to them. Camp Rock was what so many looked forward to going to, saving every ounce of money they could get their hands on, to just bring them that step closer to ensuring a spot at camp. Camp Rock was where you could let lose every artistic bone that you've got in you. Camp Rock is where it all got started.

Two sets of legs stretched out of a small vehicle, and shut the door behind them at an instant. It was as if they couldn't of gotten out of that car any quicker, that they were out of sight before Mrs. Torres had the chance to wish them a good time.
"I can't believe it! We're back." Mitchie announced as she walked along side her best friend, Caitlyn. "I know, and I'm glad to be back as well." Clutching tightly to the handles of their suitcases they just looked left to right, soaking up every second of this.
The girls were in pure bliss. "Move it." A voice snarled from behind. Turning around, the girls came face to face to their blonde rival. Tess Tyler. Shuffling to the side, they just observed as Tess paraded past them, waving her hand in the direction of her cabin. "Poor guy." Mitchie said as she watched Tess's butler carry 3 very large suitcases. "Yeah, but that's Tess for you, something's never change."
Making their way over to the large crowd developing near the stage, the girls anxiously waited for what was to happen next.
"Welcome! Welcome! Welcome!" a lady announced waving her arms wildly in the air. Standing tall in the center of the small stage placed in front of a beautiful lake, she smiled down at the scattered bunch of gifted campers.
"I'm glad to see some familiar faces," parts of the crowd cheered, breaking out doing a few dance moves. Mitchie glanced around and smiled. "And to see new faces as well," the other parts of the crowd cheered. "I hope we're all prepared for yet another brilliant stay at… CAMP ROCK!"
Wandering off into different groups, the campers branched off once again into small groups either reuniting with past year friends, or meeting new ones. "It's really good to be back." Mitchie said beaming brightly. "Agreed."

Entering their cabin, they scurried to their memorable beds and dove on to them. "Ahh." They both sighed and placed their hands beneath their heads, and stared at the ceiling. "What do you want to do first?" Caitlyn asked, as she got up not long after. "Unpack I guess." Mitchie groaned, her face turned to a displeasing smile.
Currently Mitchie and Caitlyn occupied this cabin, and there were two free beds. "I wonder if we'll be surprised with any familiar faces?" Caitlyn stated as she tilted to her head towards the vacant beds. "Maybe if we're lucky, Tess will be our new roommate." Mitchie joked. "Over my dead laptop." Caitlyn mumbled harshly.
"Oh, I started writing a few more new songs." Mitchie said as she went through her bags in hope to find her book. "I remember you telling me about that, hurry up and show me." Caitlyn mumbled while her head was buried inside her wardrobe adjusting her coat hangers.
Mitchie's heart began to race. "No, no, no, I bought it, I know I did." Flicking around her belongings, there was no sign of her bright yellow tattered music book. Searching every inch of her stuff slowly her hidden music book began slip and landed on to the floor in amongst the clothes that dribble out of her suitcase. "Oh, there it is." Flopping on to her stomach she reached out for it, to see something slightly poking out from beneath the vacant bed beside her.
Knowing Caitlyn was on the other bed, she placed her book on her bedside table rolled off the bed and pulled out the object, which ended up being a suitcase. "I guess we do have another roomie." Mitchie motioned towards the suitcase, and Caitlyn pulled her head out of the wardrobe to give a half smile. "I wonder who."
As if on cue the door handle began to turn, and there appeared a somewhat tall figure. "Oh, I didn't think anyone would be in here." The girl said shyly. "I see you also found my suitcase." Mitchie gasped and let go of her suitcase, and stood up, brushing down her ruffled up clothing.
"Hi, Mitchie Torres." She smiled brightly, and walked over to the door, extending her hand out. "Rebecca Woods." The girl replied. "And this is Caitlyn Geller, one of the most amazing girls you'll ever meet." Mitchie bragged, to be slapped slightly by Caitlyn. "Hardly, hi nice to meet you."
Standing for a moment in silence, you could feel the tension somewhat build. Mitchie smiled awkwardly before swaying a little. "First year?" Caitlyn asked breaking the silence. "Me? I mean of course me… yeah it is. I heard some people in music mention it, and I saw a flyer on the wall, so I thought I'd pester my parents into getting me to come here." Rebecca nodded and wandered over to her suitcase.
Hauling it up on to the bed, and pulled out a few flyers. "…Along with the occasional hints here and there by…" Mitchie interrupted "…leaving flyers in the letter box, in briefcases, in the fridge etc?" Rebecca laughed. "Exactly in those spots, and it seemed to work, and I guess it did for you to." The girls laughed.
All laying on their beds, the girls spoke for a bit, breaking down that tension and getting to know one another seeing as they now shared a cabin. "Wow, Connect 3 came here last year? I did miss out! I thought it was just a rumour." Rebecca said disappointedly. "Oh no, it was real." Mitchie sighed.
"Yeah, those boys were something…" Caitlyn glanced at her watch. "Yikes, It's dinner time, so I guess we better start heading over there." They nodded. "Yeah we better, I'm starved, but I hope there's no hamburger." Mitchie clutched her stomach. "Why? Is there something wrong with them?" Rebecca questioned worriedly. "Long story, but you see my parents…" Mitchie began to explain her mum's job, and how it was her way into getting to camp.
Within in minutes they arrived to the mess hall they entered and got into the line to choose out of a various selection of foods, their mouths practically drooling at the smell that entered their nostrils. "That's nice of your parents to do that." Rebecca said glancing slightly over her shoulder, and back to the food grabbing bits and pieces.
Mitchie smiled. "I thanked them a million times, and it still isn't enough, but I've got to occasionally help out back, so if I disappear, I'm sure you'll know where I'm at." Caitlyn and Rebecca giggled. "Caitlyn, psst." Mitchie whispered. "They're not here, or at least I haven't seen them yet..." Mitchie's face sunk a little. "Right, it's silly to think he'd even be back again, I mean… argh."
Last year Mitchie never got the chance to sing at Final Jam, Shane never got to hear her voice and Tess had won the final competition, which meant she got to sing a duet with Shane and have a few songs recorded with Connect 3. Turning around it hurt Mitchie to see Tess because she knew that all she'd be doing at camp is gloating about it.
Making their way past other campers, Caitlyn and Mitchie cringed at Tess. "Well, I got sing with Shane, Nate and Jason… but Shane… he's just wonderful. On top of winning to sing with Shane Gray! My mother even wonder yet another award, probably because I made her soo proud." Tess boasted jiggling her wrist with the several sprawled out charms. Wandering past as fast as possible, Mitchie, Caitlyn and Rebecca grabbed a vacant table over in the corner, as far away from Tess as possible.
Mitchie could tell just by looking at Peggy and Ella that they were sick of gloating already. "Hey Mitch, you okay?" Caitlyn asked, nudging her slightly. Mitchie snapped out of her daze and faked a smile. "Yeah, of course." Picking up her fork she began to eat some of her mashed potatoes.
"I wonder if they'll come, I wonder if I'll get to see Shane again, and prove to him I'm not full of lies… to let him know…."

So here is chapter one, and I'm sorry if it's a little slow but I've got to build up to it, haha. I've got just one original character, Rebecca, and I won't be adding in any new characters, unless that's teachers names, but I'm sure you'd pick up one those, but trying to stick to as many characters in the movie to keep it some what similiar.
I've chosen to take this story in the path of… Tess winning, and Shane never hearing Mitchie sing, so she's obviously got some unfinished business to attend to, but what will happen next? What obstacles will come their way… Will Shane make an appearance? All will be revealed. You just have to stay tuned, and for me to continue I need reviews for motivation and to know people are actually reading!
Thank you :)
