Title: This Ain't No Camp
Summery: Camp Green Lake is closed, and the boys are all sent off to St.
Jude's Correctional School. But is there help for anyone at a school named
after the patron saint of hopeless causes? *Casting Call*

call, and the guidelines are at the end.
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
The old bus I'm in flies over the dirt road. I sit in the seat, my arms crossed over my chest as I look out the window.
"Hey. Hey, Squid, man."
I look up to see ZigZag.
"Yeah, dude?"
"Do you know what's with this St. Jude's place?"
"I heard they beat the kids." Twitch says, fidgeting in his seat beside me. X-ray backhands him lightly from across the aisle.
"You're an idiot, that's illegal."
"It usually doesn't matter what these places do, as long as they keep their kids under control." ZigZag says, that paranoid look crossing his face.
"Dudes, chill." Magnet says, looking over the seat in front of me, his head popping up next to ZigZag's. "It just so happens that I borrowed-"
"Stole." Twitch corrects, his eyes shining.
Magnet shrugs. "Yeah, stole. Anyway, I stole this here letter off the desk while the feds weren't lookin'."
He quickly scans the bus, and slips this wrinkled envelope into my hands. I quickly open it and skim the letter.
Mr. James Agnus, F.B.I:
The faculty at St. Jude's is willing to take in your boys. We will have rooms available and classes ready on September 1st. Please bring the boys to us at least a day before the first day of school. We are eager to meet the new arrivals. We are sure they will fit in quite nicely with our own students.
Thank you, Sister Mary Margaret Headmistress
"Dude this tells us nothing." I say to Magnet, an eyebrow raised.
"Sure it does!" he protests. "See? It's called St. Jude's, school starts on the first, there are people there and Sister Mary Margaret is the headmistress."
"That's fascinating, Magnet." X-Ray says dryly.
The Hispanic boy shrugs. "It's the best I can come up with."
The bus screeches to a halt and I look out the window again. A large brick wall is one side, the top of it laced with barbed wire. On the other side is huge red brick building with ivy creeping up the walls and large, barred windows.
The bus door sprang open, causing us all to jump. A small nun, dressed in a habit is standing in the front of the bus.
"Welcome to St. Jude's." she says in a low, eerie voice.
"Oh, crap." ZigZag whimpers. "We're all gonna die."
