Raj sat in his seat on the bus, his face in a book, he didn't look up once. He just turned the page when he heard a "Pst" sound; he looked up and saw two big, brown eyes peeking out from the seat in front of him. Once he put the book down the eyes showed their owner, "Hi, I'm Lazlo…what's your name?" in a very small voice Raj answered, "I'm Raj."
Lazlo then jumped from his seat to Raj's, "Hi Raj. Is this your first time at Camp Kidney?" Raj nodded, "Mine too. Wanna be friends?" Raj was shocked but then smiled, "Sure." Raj and Lazlo soon started a conversation. "Who's that?" Raj asked pointing to a little rhino watching them, "I don't know…" Lazlo waved to him. "Come here."
The rhino got up and went over to them, "Hi I'm Lazlo and this is Raj. What's your name?" The rhino said nothing at first but then, "Clam." Both of them smiled and let Clam join them. He didn't say much, it seemed like we was shy, but he did smile a lot so Lazlo was okay with that.
In the back of the bus, a little platypus sat and watched the whole thing. 'Stupid scouts…stupid camp…stupid everything.' "Hi! I'm Chip" "And I'm Skip" the platypus looked up and scowled at the sight he saw. Two smelly Dung beetles but even though he didn't want to be bothered he still answered "Edward…"
The two beetles sat down the seat next to his, "Want to be friends?" Chip asked. Edward just looked at them, "No…" The other scouts were already getting to know each other, Lazlo walked down the aisle of the bus to the back. Edward was dozing when he felt someone sit down next to him.
He opened his eyes and saw a monkey, "Hi…" Edward said nothing, "Why aren't you talking to anyone?" Edward just closed his eyes again. No sooner had he, he began to feel something poking his shoulder. It was Lazlo, "What do you want!?" he asked, getting angry. "Just to talk" Edward crossed his arms, "Well too bad."

The bus pulled up to the Camp Kidney entrance. The scouts began to gather outside where they were greeted by a Moose, a Banana slug, a goat, and a shark. Right away Edward was not pleased.
The slug stepped forward, "Hello Campers! I'm Mr. Slinkman and this Scoutmaster Lumps." Lumpus waved and mumbled a hello. "This is Chef McMusily and Nurse Leslie." All the scouts but Edward waved. "Okay the first thing to do is to go pick a cabin that you'll be staying in for the next four months. We're limited cabins so you'll have to do three to cabin. Any questions?" Slinkman finished.
No one said anything, "Okay…now once you get into your cabin meet back at the flag pole and we'll discuss the rules, why you're here, and how you'll be spending your time here. Okay? All righty then, go get your cabin."
The scouts ran off in all directions, all but Edward. "Young man, is there a problem?" Lumpus asked. "Yeah there is…I got to see a man about a wallaby…where's the toilets?" Lumpus looked at him then pointed to the bathroom, Edward walked over. "Slinkman?" "Yes, sir?" Lumpus looked at him, "What the hell was he talking about?" Slinkman smiled, "That was Edward Platypus, sir. He's from Australia, so I think we'll be hearing a lot of stuff like that from him."
