Chapter 7
Mel POV
It was about eight so we all got out of our costumes and changed into what ever else we had. The little kids hopped into the excursion with my mom Julie and they took off. Then Iggy and I headed over to my buggy because he can't ride a quad like the others. So we got in the back seat with my dad driving. We were about to start the poker run and I knew this time I was going to win. (A/N: hey if you don't know what it is just review and just ask and I will say in my next chapter) As we started our journey to find the first check point Iggy's hand somehow managed to find mine. It was about ten minutes until we reached our first check point.
When we got there I saw the other older kids in like ahead of us. When we had to do our game it was to try to whistle after eating three crackers. I did it and it came out to hardly a whisper. But when Iggy did it came out like a wolf whistle! I laughed so hard I started to hyperventilate.
Max POV
It was a lot of fun going threw the desert at night without flying. There was a lot more to see than just little dots every where. Of course it would be hard to see without my raptor vision. We got to our next check point and it was a team game. We had to grab a few partners and go through a maze. I grabbed hold of Fang's sweatshirt and put the hood over his face. He turned around and said, "So this is what it feels like to be Iggy."
"No way man it is much cooler than you would ever be even with the hood off," Iggy said to Fang. Mel, Austin, Nick, Jason, Nick b and I started laughing.
"OK so who is going to be on my team?" I asked. Austin and Fang walked over to where I was.
"So the teams are Fang, Austin, and I; and Iggy, Mel and nick b," I said.
We went to the starting line and Jerry shouted "GO!" I grabbed Fang and Austin and we took off. We had to go over a stack of tires. Fang hopped up and I got up with ease but I almost had to drag Austin up. That's what you get for not being a mutant freak. We then had to crawl under some caution tape and I almost kicked Austin as I crawled under. I looked over and was neck and neck with us. I started kicking it up a notch. The next obstacle was going through a giant tire and picking up a tire and placing it on a platform. We ran over and Fang and I got through it with ease but again Austin had some trouble with getting in gracefully. We finally got him through and Fang and I picked up the tire with ease with Austin hardly helping. We got it on there and looked over. They were still trying to pick it up so we had one!
"Nice job guys! That was fun!" I said as I tried to let go of there hands. Fang was actually smiling for a second as he wouldn't let
me let go. Austin just let go with ease and didn't notice that Fang was still holding my hand. We got our card and then went to the quads. We got through the other check points and then headed back.
It was time for the awards. The president of the other club rattled off names of people who won this and that. I was sitting on Fangs right; Austin was on my right, Mel on his right, Iggy on her right, Nick b on his right and Melissa on his right. I was leaning against Fang's shoulder gazing at the stars. Mel was explaining to Iggy what was going on and everyone else was listening to the guy up front. He yelled out a couple of tickets and people started going up to get there prizes for the raffle. The ceremony was almost over and we decided to go ask an adult to take us on a night ride. We got to Forrest and he said yes.
"Hey I am going in Forrest's buggy!" I said. I hopped in the buggy and buckled myself inside the middle. Fang quietly climbed in after me.
"I call front!" Austin yelled. Forrest climbed in and started the engine. Iggy, Mel, Nick b, and Melissa were in the other buggy with Bob.
"Time to go guys!" Forrest said as he rode out of camp.
When we got out of the light of the camp all you could see was what the huge lights were shinning on. I saw what Forrest was heading and for and I thought he was just going to turn around but no he rode up the steep hill of sand really fast. We went over the top and flew for a few minutes in the air. Then the buggy landed hard and jostled us all around.
"WOW!! That was a nice one!" Forrest yelled. It was pretty fun but nothing like real flying. We went around and hit a few more jumps then we were going up a dune and went over. But when we went over there was a pile of rocks at the bottom! We were rolling down the hill too fast to stop so Forrest tried to move the buggy to a different direction but instead it just went to its side and started to tip over. We started rolling in the buggy and finally came to a stop at the bottom we were up side down. I pulled my seat belt and saw that Fang was already out by now. I looked to the front and saw that both Forrest and Austin were unconscious.
