Chapter 11: Camping


The bus pulled up into a empty parking grounds on top of a hill. Two cabins where on each side with two bathhouses next to them and a big dinning house between the, very far back. All the children stood, but Mr. Dingle stood and stopped all the kids. He began to talk, but no one listened. They where to busy squirming in there sets, hoping for release.

"Now, I think would be a good time to tell all of you we needed some parents to help on this trip." Mr. Dingle announced. "So we would like to thank the child who's parents are coming: Naratu Hotma-kun, Lettuce Midorikawa-san, Hojo Higora-kun, and Naomi Uotani-san."

Naomi stopped, eyes widening. "NO WAY!" Ichigo gave her a sympathetic look, that just mad her feel worse. Lettuce gave her a look that said, "I know how you feel."

"My mom's here too." Lettuce sighed, pointing at a woman with light green hair and green eyes, who was waving at her. Ryou chuckled as wrapped his arm around her shoulders.

"Your mom is not like mine. Trust me." Naomi said, looking at the floor and shaking her head. She began pinching herself and stopped when she saw her friends looking at her with a strange face. "Hoping this is a dream." Them her friends turned to each other and gave and "Oh" look on there faces.

"Mimi!" A woman with brown hair and green eyes shouted to the bus. Satu looked out her window and closed her window and ducked down.

"Is that your mother?" Iris asked, pointing to the window. Naomi looked and put her face in her hands. "I'll take that as a yes. Oh, boy this is gonna be a long three days."

"Why does she call you-" Yushi stopped to think. "Oh. Cause Naomi Mini me I get it!" She head her pointer figure in the air and smiled. Satu, who was next to her giggled shyly.

"Mimi, not mini me." Satu laughed. Yushi turned red, smiled sheepishly and gave a slight, "Oh." Naomi could have laughed, if she wasn't completely embarrassed.

"Everyone step off the bus in an orderly fashion." Mr. Myner said. As if they didn't hear him, all the kids ran off the bus. Naomi walked slowly, but when she got down, her mother hugged her tightly.

"Oh, Mimi! I'm so happy to see you! I missed you so much!" Mrs. Uotani was so happy.

"Guys this is my mom, Celesta Uotani." Naomi said, as she mother squeezed her.

"You're part Mexican?" Tart asked. Naomi nodded, but couldn't move.

"MOM! I want to talk to my friends!" Naomi whined.

"Oh!" Celesta let go and turned to the kids. "Since I'm only gonna be here for one day, I'm gonna take this chance to meet all of you! I'm Celesta Uotani!" Celesta's voice was hyper, with a thick Mexican accent, nothing like her daughter. "What are you're names?"

"I'm Ichigo, that's Mint, Lettuce, Pudding, Zakuro, Ringo, Satu, Iris, Sahara and Yushina." As Ichigo said each name, the girls bowed.

"Wow. Mimi has so much friends!" Celesta said. She turned to the boys. "Are you her friends as well?" The boys nodded and introduced themselves. "People used to say Mimi looked like me, but now… She dyes her hair so much, we look nothing alike." Celesta sighed as she played with her daughters violet streaks. Naomi rolled her eyes.

"People wonder why I dye my hair." She murmured under her breath.

"Well, I have to meet the other teachers. Bye Mimi!" Celesta walked off and began to talk to Ms. Midorikawa. (A/N: Okay, I think Lettuce's mom is married but, my story! My rules! Besides, with this it's gonna get funny.)

"Okay, anyway! Smile!" Ichigo said as she snapped a picture with her pink digital camera. "It's so beautiful here!" She said. It was the happiest anyone had seen her since the whole Kish thing.

"How about one of us by the fire pit!" Ringo called as she threw her arms around Zakuro and Yushi. Yushi gave a toothy smiled as she held up a victory sign and Zakuro smiled warmly and threw her arm around Ringo as well. Ichigo took the picture as the boys walked with their classmates.

"Look at the mountains behind us!" Satu yelled, shyly. Ichigo gasped, turned as started shooting away. "They're so big and snowy!"

"Pace yourself, Ichigo." Iris said, tonelessly, but inside she was happy Ichigo was happy for now. "We haven't even seen the cabins yet."

"I know but it's so incredible." Ichigo took a deep breath, to calm herself, and took her last picture. In was much colder in the mountains of Kyoto that it was in Tokyo, so none of the girls where dressed for the weather, hence, why Zakuro was bouncing up and down, trying to warm up.

"Can we please go inside and change!" Zakuro shouted. Pai came from behind her and wrapped her in his jacket. Zakuro smiled at the warmth.

"Welcome to paradise." Mr. Myner said. But on one was impressed. They where to busy rubbing their arms, trying to stay warm, while Mr. Dingle searched for Gus, their mysterious contact that had the keys to the cabins. "Did you know Lake Placid was the site or the 1980 winter Olympics?"

"Zzzzzzzzzz." Kiwi said to loud. All the kids giggled. Mr. Myner sighed and let it go. He knew all about Kiwi, so he would let Mr. Dingle deal with him.

"This place is to cool." Naomi smiled.

"It's cold." Iris sighed, shoving her hands in her pockets. Mr. Dingle came rushing back with a big round ring of keys.

"Who's ready to see where well be living for the next three days?" Mr. Dingle asked.

"OMG! Lettuce is that your mom?" Yushi asked as she pointed to a woman with green hair laughing with Mr. Myner. Lettuce's eyes widened. She tried to move her mouth but no world came out. Finally, Iris came up and smacked her on the back and Lettuce was able to make words.

"No way! I thought I would have it better that Na-Uo when I saw her mom and now my mom is flirting with my teacher!" Lettuce placed her head in her hands and Ichigo and Pudding padded her back. "I think I'm gonna barf!"

"Ladies first." Mr. Myner shouted, leaning the way to their cabins. He unlocked the wooden door and they stepped inside. The entire room smelt like sweet pine needles. There were 70 bunk beds, but not the kind you'd see in the movies, the post where made of hefty shellacked logs and the mattresses are thick and covered with fluffy featherbeds. Each bunk had different colored blanket folded across them and different colored pillows on them.

White, fluffy sheepskin rugs covered most of the dark wood floors, except for the area around the fireplace. That was pilled high with pillows and different color suede beanbags. Fake stuffed animal heads hung across the mantel adding the final touches to the hunting lodge theme. A row of ten cedar closets lined the wall of the cabin, so each girl had her own storage area.

"Wow." Naomi smiled. "This is so flipping awesome!" Satu smiled and nodded.

"I have to agree."

The girls rushed to clam beds and Ichigo, Mint, Lettuce, Pudding, Zakuro, Ringo, Naomi, Iris, Satu, Yushi, and Sahara run to the last beds in the corner.

Ichigo got a bed the farthest from the door. It was the top bunk with a pink blanket and red pillow and Mint grabbed the on under her. Hers had a sky blue blanket and a night blue pillow. Naomi and Satu picked the one next to it, Iris getting the top. Iris had a black blanket and pillow and Naomi's had a violet blanket as well and a black pillow. Iris and Zakuro had the ones next to them, Zakuro on top.

Zakuro's had a lavender blanket with a pink pillow and Satu's bed had a violet blanket with a lavender pillow. Sahara and Pudding got the one's next to them, with Sahara on the top. Pudding's bedding was a yellow blanket and an orange pillow while Sahara had a yellow pillow and white blanket. Yushi got the last on next to them, the bottom. Here's had a green blanket with a black pillow. A girl with blonde hair got the bed on top of Yushi's.

Mint's eyes focused on the blonde, them she turned to Ichigo. "Why does that girl look familiar?" She whispered to Ichigo. Ichigo shrugged. She looked at the girl and squinted her eyes. Then it hit her! She widened her eyes.

"That was the girl who made out with Kish!" Ichigo whispered. Mint nodded sadly. Another bus pulled into the camp grounds and more girls walked into the cabin.

"Wow, this trip is popular." Mint said. The girls walked into the room, but only 2 Ichigo and her friends recognized. One had light brown hair and green eyes.

"Bethers!" Ichigo shouted. The girl looked at her and waved, but put up her pointer figure to say she would be there in a minute. The girl looked through the crowd as if she was looking for someone. She smiled and her eyes widened as she found the person she was looking for. She ran towards a girl with Blonde hair and red eyes.

Soon, the girls ran to Ichigo.

"Pinky, Bethers!" Ichigo smiled. "I thought you guys weren't gonna show!"

"Why wouldn't we show?" The blonde asked.

"Bethany Kamui-san, Simone Kunisake-san, go find your beds and talk later!" Mr. Myner said, as he walked in to check on everyone. He gave a disapproving look and turned. Everyone rolled there eyes and began unpacking. Bethany and Simone took the bed next to Yushi's. The top, which was Bethany's, had blue pillow and green blanket and the bottom, Simone's, had a pink pillow and green blanket.

Suddenly, the door was kicked open and boys came into the room. "YUKI! YOU CAME!" Yushi called as she ran to tackle her brother. The girls giggled and returned to there unpacking as if the boys weren't there. Ichigo looked like she was trying to bury her face in her bag. Mint gave her a confused look until she remembered and looked towards the crowd. Kish as not there. Mint gave Ichigo a smile and Ichigo unburied her head.

The girls and boys where talking until Mr. Myner and Mr. Dingle ran threw the doors.

"Boys, back to your cabins!" Mr. Dingle yelled.

"There you are." Mr. Dingle said. "I gave you boys permission to take a quick trip to the bathroom, not to visit the girls."

"Next time you are caught in here, you will face suspension." Mr. Myner said. "You are not to enter the girls cabin under any circumstance! And if any of you decide to take off into the woods again without supervision you will face expulsion."

"Whoa, dude, no need to use the E word again." Kiwi explained. "We where just exploring the grounds. you know, taking and interest in topography." He made air quotes for topography and everyone laughed.

"Yes, well, you still aren't allowed in the woods." Mr. Myner continued. "I don't care if you where exploring or anything else, but the woods are forbidden. There are bears and wolfs in there so no one goes!"

"Yeah, yeah, yeah." Naomi answered. "What do you expect us to do? Go running free in the woods?" Her friends laughed.

"Better safe that sorry, Miss Uotani. Well, let's go boys." Mr. Dingle walked off.

"Tomorrow, we will start on our first project and you will get time to walk around." Mr. Myner said as he walked out the cabin.


MK: Okay, so this is the beginning of the camping so the next chapter will probable have fluff, if I wanna write it, but now with the new characters, I need help with couples. There could be triangles as well so PLEASE REVIEW AND HELP ME WITH COUPLES!
