"Kelly, what are you doing?" Rick's voice came from inside the cabin.
"I'm……um…...resting." She giggled, sitting on the cabin's front step, clearly not working.
"We have to get things ready! The campers will be here soon and all of our other counsellors are late!" He cried, becoming very frustrated.
"Calm down, Rick. We're a day ahead of schedule and the kids don't arrive for two days." Kelly replied, standing up. "What do you want me to do?"
"Well you could go and check that all the life rings are where they should be. We don't want any accidents happening when the kids go swimming."
"Consider it done!" She smiled.
Rick returned the grin, and went back inside. He and his sister, Kelly, had spent so much money redeveloping Camp Crystal Lake. It had been a nightmare trying to generate publicity. Parents did not want there kids to come to a death camp, that was for sure. However, they had done a great job fixing up all the cabins and the rest of the counsellors were due to arrive at the end of the day. Various parents from all over the country had decided to let their kids come, however, due to the wonderful publicity shots that had been placed in various magazines. Camp Crystal Lake was back in business!
Kelly wandered out into the woods. The water looked calm and glistened as the sun. She checked the life rings were all present and correct. They were.
'Who would have moved them?' She thought, wondering why Rick had even sent her to do this pointless task.
He was very worried though. She had noticed. He did not want anything to go wrong. They knew all about what had happened to previous Crystal Lake counsellors. It was all very exciting though. Looking at how modern and great the camp was now (after frankly, being very drab and eerie), she remembered how hard they had worked. It was all worth while! Kelly rushed back to the main cabin where Rick was. She was getting psyched!
"Rick, what time is it?" she asked, looking in a mirror inside the cabin. She tied her dark hair back and sat next to Rick. He was looking at the timetable for the campers.
"It's just gone past four." He answered, not taking his eyes off the paper on the desk.
"Do you want me to get the uniforms ready for the rest of the counsellors?" she asked, wanting to be supportive of her brother. He was happy, yet still scared of failure. God knows, the camp had ruined many people in the past.
'Not just financially, either', Kelly thought, shuddering.
"Uh, yeah, that would be really great, thanks."
"Okay."
She left the main cabin and went to find the new uniforms. She had designed the new Crystal Lake logo herself, and it took pride of place not just on the t-shirt of the uniform, but also at the camp's entrance in place of the old sign from when the trouble had happened.
She reached the supplies cabin and entered.
'That light bulb is flickering again!' she thought, deciding she would change the bulb later.
However, her thoughts were taken from changing light bulbs to the fact that the uniforms weren't there. Strange. She could have sworn that they had been there before. Who could have taken them?
Well that's the first chapter! Please tell me what you thought of it! Another chapter will follow.
