The Jungle Aventure
Prologue:
Arnold's Dream
They were in the middle of the jungle searching for the right plant. Making the medicine for the birds in danger wasn't easy, but they were pleased to do it. "Mom!... dad!..i found it!" the 10 year old kid yelled pulling the plant away from the ground, "Look!" he turned around, but he didn't saw anything,"Mom?...Dad?...where are you." he kept looking everywhere, but nothing. He started to see something pink between the woods, "he........."
Hey arnold, Hey arnold, Hey arnold
His alarm interrpted his dream, he woke up in a sudden, taking off the wires away from the potato. He started cleaning his eyes with his hands, when he saw the picture of his mom and dad. He stared at the them for a few seconds, they looked so happy together, "Mom, dad...where are you?" He thought silencely, "Happy Birthday to you!" Arnold's grandma Gertty(a/n sorry donno how to spell it) and grandpa Phills singing in a chorus to arnold. Grandma carried a a cake on her hands, (a/n any kind you like) she gently put it on arnolds lap. "Make a wish Kimba," she told arnold, while she was turning on the ten canddles from the cake, but they all knew the only and most important wish. Arnold close his eyes, and he blew the flames from the candles. "Hope all your wishes came tru...." grandpa was about to said 'true', but a noise in his stomach interrumpted him, "puki...what did you put in the other cake you made?" he asked worried, "It was for Oskar," she answered, "OH... AAAHh!!" he ran out of the room. Grandma just gave a short mischivious smile to Arnold and then left fallowing Phills.
"He'll be alright, grandma always puts traps on Oskar." Arnold thought still serious, thinking in all the times 'Oskar' tried to sneak into the kitchen for some food. Arnold put the cake away, so he could get dress for school. He was been late, so he decided to run downstairs. When he opened the door to go out, there was a man about to knock the door, The men looked surprise for a few seconds, but he change his impresstion to a serious face. "Package for Arnold...aah...what does this says?...anyway is for this direction," Arnold took the package from the man and he put it on the floor besides the door, "Sign here," the man said giving arnold a paper (a/n we know/think arnold last name is shortman) the man left quick after he took the paper back from arnold. "Grandma, can you put the package on my room please!!!" Arnold yelled hoping that his grandma had heard. Not waiting for answer he left running to the bus stop.
Chapter One:
Essay contest
Arnold ran the faster he could, but he cought the bus. He got in the bus and saw Helga sitting besides pheabe. He saw Gerald in another sit behind them. He couldn't help it, but as Helga watched him going to sit besides Gerald, he smiled at her. He felt wierd around her since she had told him, her feelings. He knew that they both agree that it was the 'heat of the moment' but he knew that everything she had told him in the rooftop of the FTi buildding was true. He backoff because he needed to think about it. The moment of the confession happen to fast. He sat besides Gerald, and then they made their hand-shake. "Hey man," Gerald said facing him, "Hey, How was yesterday?" Arnold asked him, "You mean at the Patakis' residence?" Gerald asked uncomfortable, Arnold nodded, "It was..." Gerald was thinking how to not make big deal about it, "...fine, I guest..." but he couldn't supported "...man, I couldn't support Bob Pataki at dinner asking me questions, but Olga did help me a lot in the homework, is so great that she is back in our school as tutor." Gerald finally said, "Yeah," Arnold comfirmed not looking at him.
"Hey!..." Arnold heard someone was calling him during lunch time "... football-head!" it was Helga "Can I talk to you for a second..." Helga asked him in a low voice "Sure..." he answered her wondering what Helga needed him for. They walked out of the cafeteria.
"Mmm- mm-mm" Gerald said as he saw Arnold and Helga leaving the cafeteria, "What is it, Gerald?" Pheabe asked him sitting besides him, since Helga was with Arnold. "I just wondering what's between them...Arnold and Helga." he answered with curiosity, Pheabe just give him a short smile, hoping that what she was thinking was true.
"What is it, Helga?...what can I help you on?" Arnold asked Helga, while he was turning around to face her. After they got out of the cafeteria in the hallway. "Do you remember that time when you gave me a birthday present," she said, "Yeah...why?" he asked her, each time, Helga was getting more nervous,"What's she up to," Arnold wondered in his thoughts,"Well I just wanted to reply it," she took a little blue box out of her packet and gave it to Arnold. He took it surprised, "Ooh...well...thank you... I guest..." he said nervous, but in second his impression changed to mysterious smile, "Nothing is going to explote when I open it, isn't it?" He asked her holding his unespected laugh, "Crimany! once in my live I try to be nice, and this is what I get?" Helga answered angry and offended, "Sorry...I was just wondering," He answered, she crosses her arms over her chest, while he opened the little blue box. Inside the box was a silver necklace with a green crystal in formed of an eye (a/n I dont know how to explain it, but it just like his parents necklaces; from the journal, except that is a miniature). She smiled while he looked surprised, "Don't get to excited, because it's the first and the last present I'm giving you," she said in rude tone. He did like the , it reminded him of his parents for some reason. He remember he was staring at that necklace last week at the jewellery store, but he didn't bought it, he was passing by that store and saw it behind the window."Thank you so much, Helga!" he said throwing himself toward her, giving her a huge hug, they stayed like that for a few seconds, "Yeah...yeah whatever...don't get used to it," she said pushing him away to the floor. They when back to the cafeteria after their conversation, like nothing had happen.
Mr. Simmons was teachen his class with a big smile on his face. "...and that's how photosen..."
Riiiiiiiinng!
the bell sounded interrupting Mr. Simmons speach, "Before you leave I have a very special announcement to make," he told his class that stood up their desks. He started talking the faster he could, since the students were toward the exit door. "There is an essay contest..." he went to get some papers from his desk as he continued "...if you are interested in what is about, here is this special paper with all the special information and there'll be specials prices, too." as he was talking he made his way to the door, giving each student a paper.
"Hey man..." it was Gerald behind Arnold, "I was looking for you, man," Arnold putted some books inside his locker while Gerald was talking, he turned around to face him, "Hi, Gerald." Arnold said, "Man, you got out of the class as sooner the bell rang, that you didn't get one of this," Gerald told him, showing him the paper that Mr. Simmons gave him in his way out of the class. Arnold took the paper from Gerald's hand, "What is it?" he asked starting to read it.

As sooner Arnold finished reading he was smiling, "Isn't that amazing! if one of us win, I finally would be able to go to Japan, Do you know they eat..." "This is amazing! if I win I would be able to find my parents," Arnold said excited and surprised, Gerald just give him a forced smile crossing his arms, he was interrumpted, and according to Arnold impression the whole time Arnold was ignoring him. "Yeah, is amazing, but don't get to excited man. There would be more participants," Gerald told Arnold, while they were walking out of school "I'm going to past the rest of the weekend working on it," Arnold told him.
The whole time Helga was hiding behind the water fountain. She heard all the conversation. When Arnold and Gerald left, she look everywhere to see if anybody was still around the hallways, she took her locket out, "Oh Arnold, my poor miserable angel still looking for your missing parents, having no parents to fill the dark, profound hole in your good-intentioned heart life. I would work hard as you to win that stupid essay contest." she hugged the lucker as it was Arnold over her chest. She heard a wheeze but she didn't bother to turn around, she just made a punch at her right side. "Stupid brainy, why is he following me all the time!?" she asked herself in a thought hearing the braking of glasses.
Chapter Two
Good News:
Arnold and Gerald got to the boarding house. They were still talking about the essay contest. Gerald promised Arnold if there was the possibility he wins, he would choose to go to San Lorenzo, but Gerald really wanted to go to Japan. When they got to Arnold's room, Arnold saw the package from the morning. "What is it?" Gerald asked looking at it while Arnold was trying it to open it. "I don't know. It got here this morning." Arnold answered sincerely. They both mouth wide open when they saw the two pure gold necklaces with a form of an eye with a big green crystal. "These were of my parents!" Arnold yelled excited holding them in his hands. Gerald was still surprised. "Do you know what this mean, Gerald!" Arnold still excited asked him. Gerald was about to give him a simple reason, but Arnold didn't let him talk. "My parents can be still alive! or how you explain that they just found these?" While Arnold was talking Gerald saw a note inside the package. "Maybe this can explain," Gerald answered taking the note, and handle it to Arnold who put the neckles besides Gerald. "It's a letter from my dad's friend Eduardo" Arnold without taking the eyes from the letter told Gerald. "And what does it say?" Gerald asked. Arnold started reading it loudly enough so Gerald can hear.
Dear Arnold,
You must be a young man already, anyway you must know already what happen to you parents, because if you don't, this latter will sound wierd to you. You must have seen the necklaces already; they belong to your parents. We just found them in the middle of the jungle. I couldn't believe it. I was so happy to found them. They were all muddy, but when I clean them, I decided to send them to the person who really owns them. They worth a lot of money, but you wouldn't care about the money, because they were so value to your parents. I hope you keep them and appreciate them like your parents did.
~one your parents friend.
Eduardo,
PS. hope your grandparents have tell you about me.
"Wow," Arnold said after he finished reading the letter, "I have to start that essay now, if I want to win that contest," he continued. "Oh look at them, man, you are rich." Gerald said holding the necklaces, "Gerald if you are thinking that I should sell them, I won't," Arnold told him taking out the little blue box that Helga give him from his bagpack, "Ah..." Gerald started to say something but as sooner he saw the little blue box he changed his mind, "What's that?" He asked Arnold, "What?..." Arnold asked, but he saw Gerald staring at the little blue box, "This?" Arnold showed it to him. Gerald nodded, "um..." Arnold tried to sound normal as possible, "It was a give...from...um... Helga..." He was saying this while he took the necklace out and putting it on, "Helga?" Gerald couldn't believe what he was hearing, "What's Helga doing by giving you presents, man, what's between you and he.." " I really need too started this essay if I want to find my parents," Arnold interrupted Gerald who was still suspicious. He was looking at Arnold for few minutes, but he decided to leave. "Okay man, see you, I have to take care of Timberly for some money," Gerald told him making his way to the door. Gerald was worry for Arnold, he didn't like him to get so excited for something that could be untrue. "Bye Gerald," Arnold told him, while he was preparing to write his essay.
"I can't stand her, can you believe, she made me stay in detention just because I cutted line today at lunch!" Helga was on the phone with pheabe that afternoon. She was tired of her sister Olga who was back helping teaching 5th grade, so she can be the 5th grade teacher next year. "Oh Helga, maybe she just worry about your edu..." Pheabe was saying when Helga interrupted her. "Pheebs, she is making me crazy! I don't know why she came back from Alaska saying..." Helga tried to make her voice sound as Olga's, "'Oh I just miss my lovely family so much, specially you baby sister, oh thank you so much for all your lovely letters' sheez, so annoying!"
It past a week later, all the participants in the essay contest have turn in their essays that monday. There was 5 minutes left in Mr. Simmons' class. "Okay class, before our special class is over I have a very special announcement to make," Mr. Simmons was saying, "How special this time could it be?" Helga made a comment, and then the class giggled. Olga stared at her seriesly, "Baby sister, is inrespctable talking over the teacher," Olga told her sister Helga who rolled her eyes by Olga's reply. Mr. Simmons ignored Helga's comment and he continued, "I have to announce who is our special winner from the special essay contest," the class was in shock, "Do you mean that we are going to a fieldtrip," Rhonda who was brushing her hair during class was the one who reacted, Mr. Simmons nodded. "Then who is it?" Curly couldn't support the suspence, "Is...um..." Mr. Simmons continued, "Arnold," everybody stared at Arnold who was smiling happily, "Now Arnold has to decide where he wants to take us," Mr. Simmons told the class smiling, all the class started bothering Arnold. "Oh choose Paris, Arnold darling, long time I don't go there." Rhonda started, "Choose Brazil," "...India," "...Mexico," "...Italy," "...China," the class was telling Arnold, but he was ignoring them.
Riiiiiinnng
the bell rang interruping the students, "Congratulations Arnold, now I want you to stay with me, so you can tell me," Mr. Simmond told Arnold directly. The class still smiling at Arnold stood up their desks leaving the class.
Chapter Three
The way to San Lorenzo
Mr. Simmon sat on his desk, he started taking some papers out form a drawer, "So have you decide a special place?" Mr. Simmons asked him, "Yeah," "should I told him about my parents?" Arnold thought "no if tell him, he would think is dangerous and would make a big deal about it" Arnold didn't reliazed that Mr. Simmons was still staring at him waiting for him to continue. "So what special place is it?" Mr. Simmons asked, "San Lorenzo, in South America," Arnold told him smiling. "Oh Arnold, what a wonderful place," Mr. Simmons told him. "Hey Mr. Simmons, so this is the kid who won the trip?" It was a deep voice caming from the class' door. "Principal Wartz," Mr. Simmons said as sooner he saw him. Principal Wartz started walking toward them, "Yeah, this is Arnold," Mr. Simmons told him. "So kid, have you decide where you want to go?" Principal Wartz asked Arnold, looking at him with no smile. "I just told Mr. Simmons that I decide we should go to San Lorenzo," Arnold told Principal Wartz respectfully. Principal Wartz turned to see Mr. Simmons who was still smiling (a/n mr. simmons is always smiling except when he is worry or scare) "That's a great place," Principal Wartz commented.
Helga entered to the bathroom after the bell rang, she checked if anyone was there, but she didn't see anybody, she took her locker out, "Oh Arnold my love, my angel you finally would get what you always want. You'll finally find your parents." Gerald who was hearing all this from the boys bathroom (a/n remember april fool episode) couldn't believe it, "Helga in love with my man, Arnold?" he was thinking this, while he waited in the hallway for Arnold. "Gerald, thanks for waiting for me, ready for a new aventure?" Arnold was tellling him while they walked out of school. Gerald didn't answered nothing he was still thinking. "How long have they been keeping it in secret? and why Arnold hasn't tell me nothing. I'm his BEST FRIEND." "Gerald, are you even listening," Arnold asked him, "uh?" Gerald asked confused, "Look at you, you're starting to act like me," Arnold joked, they both smiled. "I was saying that We are finally going to San Lorenzo in two weeks, and we have make a plan of how to slip away from the class, so we can look for my parents." Arnold explained. "So are you going to ask Helga to help us?" Gerald asked without thinking, "Why should I ask her?" Arnold asked him confused, "Not, for nothing." Gerald answered.
The week end past so fast. It was already Monday and the classes was so excited, because they wanted to know to what place Arnold was taking them. "So where are we going Mr. Simmons?" Stinky asked. "Oh, Arnold deciced to take us to San Lorenzo in South America," Mr. Simmons told the class. Everybody was confused questioning each other, why would Arnold wanted to go to San Lorenzo? "Where is San Lorenzo?" Stinky asked. "It a good question Stinky, San Lorenzo is a Jungle between Salvador and Guatemala," Olga answered, "Uh, thanks Miss Olga." Stinky answered back. Meanwhile Mr. Simmons was passing a paper, " This is your permit sheet, besure to bring it back signed before the field trip that would be in two weeks," he finally said. The class continue as always, but there was still gossips around.
The two week past fast, during that time Arnold had the time to make his own plans without telling anyone. It was noon when all the students where in the airport. Their farewell with their parents wasn't easy. Eugene's parents were giving all the medicine for his allergics. All the parents were giving hugs and kisses to their child, they were still worry for them. The jungle was very dangerous. "Oh baby sister, It so wonderful that we are finally to going to pass time together learning..." "Make me a favor Olga, stay away from me," Helga interrupted her sister Olga. Helga entered to the airplane and she saw that everyone was already sitting in their sits. Olga was behind her, she was wishing to sit with her sister. There was few sits left. Briney was specting that Helga would sit with him. He even made a space so she can sit with him. Helga ignore him, but she really didn't saw him. She saw Pheabe sitting with Gerald, she thought would be a great idea to pretend be angry, beacause Pheabe didn't save her a sit and now she has to sit besides Arnold. Olga saw where Helga was going, she felt bad, because her baby sister was ignoring her. "Hey big sister Olga, came sit beside me." It was Lila who was sitting with Rhonda looking her self in a little mirror trying to fix her hair, and Nadine who was so excited to go to San Lorenzo. Olga sat beside Lila, "Hey little sister," Olga said to started a conversation with Lila. Both girls were smiling to each other.
Arnold sat beside Gerald who was sitting besides Pheobe. They were talking about something that Arnold wasn't really lisening. He was looking at his dad's journal and he started writing. He decided to finished it.
Today started my new aventure. I would finally would started looking for my parents Miles and Stella. I know that they are some where lose in the jungle. It ready pasted 10 ye....
"Crimany Pheebs! you have to leave me a sit beside the foot-ball headed boy," Helga interrupted Arnold writing. He didn't know what to answered, neither did Pheabe, "Sorry Helga," Pheabe answered. Gerald gave her a suspicious look. Helga with no complain sat beside Arnold. He kept writing on his dad's journal few things. "Why are you writing in that old journal?," "why you care," Arnold thought in Helga's question. He turned to see her, but he met those deep blue eyes, why does eyes make him so nervous? Helga's face was to close to him, and then he looked to her lips, so warm lips that once have kissed him. Helga knew what was going to happen, but she didn't want to, not in front of the class. "I'm mean, are you that poor to not be able to buy a notebook," she joked, Arnold was so surprised and nervous by realising what he was about to do. His cheecks turned pink red, He couldn't talk, "...um...no..."
"Principal Wartz, what are you doing here?" Mr. Simmons was really surprised, because he didn't expect Principal Wartz presence of coming to a boring school fieldtrip, "Don't worry about me Simmons, I can take care by myself." Principal Wartz told him looking for a sit. Mr. Simmons was still confused, "I always wanted to go to South America, and this was my opportunity." Principal Wartz explained.
"So?" Helga asked Arnold who hasn't been clear. "It's a Journal," Arnold told her. "um..." Helga didn't know what to said. She could start bothering him, why he has a diary like a girl? and she can tell the class, but she decided to not do it. How about Arnold have wrote that time when she confessed her love for him. "Tomorrow morning we are going to be San Lorezo," Helga said hopeful, "Yeah, we are," Arnold said, and then he finally smiled at her.
By now everybody is sleeping. I thought Helga was going to be ennoying, but she so funny. I couldn't stop laughing. She finally said that she was sleepy, and fell asleep on my arm. When she acts like this I really like her. She is a great person, when she want to. I think that when she acts mean and rude, she is just acting to hide her feelings toward me. I can't believe that today I was about to kiss her. Why not? maybe I do like her like her. It's not like other crushes that I used to have, this time is different.
