Yay! A new chapter!
I honestly think this one is better than my last one, though I still hate it. :P
Oh, and I almost forgot:
I'm taking OC's!
You heard it; you can submit your own character into the story!
Now, before you go all OC crazy on me, remember that there are a few rules to the characters;
1) If they are going to be in a cabin, please limit the age between 13-16
2) Make your characters stand out! Have a different personality than you're average tomboy or girly-girl. Be unique. ;)
3) No Mary-Sue's. 'Nuff said.
4) Have fun! :D
You can request where you want your character to be (e.g. Cabin 2B) but there's no guarenteeing that it will be there. I'm matching the personalities to a cabin, and which would fit best in a cabin.
I only accept 20 OC's; any more and I'd probably screw the entire story up.
So, enough chit-chat! Time for the fan-fic!
Oh, wait.

Dedications:
This chapter is dedicated to Buckwild12, who was one brave soul to review my 1st chapter. Thanks!
"Hi!" I greeted as I reached the front porch. Ichigo smiled.
"Hi! Are you going to be in my cabin or Lettuce's?" she asked, pointing to green-haired woman with thick, round glasses.
Lettuce…. What a weird name. I thought, frowning.
My thoughts were interrupted by a loud crashing sound coming from behind me. A loud "oof" was followed after that.
"Erg, Pudding! Get off of me!"
"Sorry, Mint! I guess I got caught up in my balancing act."
"Enough chit-chat, just get off! You're ruining my clothes!"
"But this is camp, Mint! We're supposed to get dirty!"
The girl with blond hair -Pudding- gathered some sand in her hand and flung it at the other girl, Mint. She let out a surprised shriek as the as the sand connected with her face.
"Why you little"- She started, but was interrupted by another ball of sand fly at her.
I watched in amusement, holding back the giggles that were rising in my throat.
Ichigo grinned. "I'm going to go join them! Nya!" She exclaimed, starting to run toward the squabbling girls. She was stopped by Lettuce, who had grabbed her hand right before she got off the porch.
"Ichigo….. We have to stay here. We're counselors, remember?" Lettuce said, her voice barely a whisper.
Obviously she doesn't have much confidence. I thought, rolling my eyes.
Ichigo's face fell. "Oh, right." She said, walking back to the porch.
Lettuce, suddenly realizing that I was still there, turned around quickly to face me. "I'm so sorry! I'm really, really sorry! I should've paid more attention to you." She looked utterly defeated.
I smiled. "Don't worry, really! It's not your fault; and besides, I found it pretty amusing to watch those two."
Lettuce beamed. "Really?"
"Really."
Before Ichigo or Lettuce could say anything, I exclaimed, "I'm in Ichigo's cabin."
I really hated saying it; probably made Lettuce feel bad, since I hadn't chosen her. Though usually I don't really care about other people's feelings, but Lettuce seemed so weak in self-confidence that I couldn't help it.
But, unlike I had predicted, Lettuce smiled. In fact, she didn't seem offended at all.
I let out an inward sigh of relief. Ichigo brightened;
"Welcome to Cabin 2A! You're the first member of this cabin to arrive! Nya!" Ichigo checked off the small blue piece of paper and handed it to me.
"Just go and get your suitcase and you're ready"- she was interrupted (again) by a high pitch cry coming from the other direction.
A tall woman with long, purple hair strode over to where Mint and Pudding were squabbling.
"Mint! Pudding!" she commanded, her voice full of authority. Pudding froze, her hand full of sand. Mint, too shocked to move, just sat there idiotically, holding a ball of sand that was aimed at Pudding's face. Both of their faces had a thick layer of sand covering them, and Mint's once white skirt was a filthy brown.
"Zakuro.." Mint said, barely a whisper.
"You two stop this nonsense at once! That is NOT how the staff at Camp MewMew acts. For your rude and reckless behavior, both of you are going to be on kitchen staff this week. Now go!"
Mint groaned. Pudding bounced up next to Mint, seeming to have lost no energy at all.
"Well that was fun, wasn't it, Mint?" She asked cheerfully. Mint stopped to face Pudding, the look of irritation on her face.
"No, it wasn't. I'm dirty. And you got me in trouble and NOW I have to work in the kitchen this week. Thanks a lot."
"You're welcome!" Pudding exclaimed, running toward the cafeteria.
I laughed at Pudding's boundless energy- she acted just like a little monkey! Turning back around to face Ichigo, I said, "I'll go ahead and get my suitcase. I'll be back soon!"
I swiftly ran back to the van, eager to take my suitcase and move in. My mom was standing by the car, waiting for me. She waved, and I waved back.
"Are you ready?" She asked, heaving my suitcase out from the trunk. It landed with a "thump" on the gravel.
"As ready as I'll ever be." I said, and my mom hugged me until I couldn't breathe.
"See you in a week!" She exclaimed.
"Bye!"
And with that, she got into the van and drove off.
As I said, not my favorite chapter, but it works. :)
