HOLY FUCKING SHIT I'VE BEEN GONE FOR A LONG TIME! I apologize for being so busy, i'm back with more chapters to make up for this.

Aaron slowly woke up with a yawn, birds chirping like usual, he sighed again as he looked at his phone.

He opened the news app and looked at it annoyed.

"Jesus my father is still not in jail again." Aaron said

He read the news reports, the search for him is still ongoing at least.

That's good to hear.

Meanwhile

A man that looked like Aaron was wearing a bloodstained orange jumpsuit was driving in a stolen car with an angry look on his face.

"Still haven't found the little shit, and when I do. I'm gonna fucking kill him." He said

He pulled out a picture of him, it was Aaron an hour after he was born with a strange rainbow aura around him.

"I see that aura around him all the time and it still makes me feel uneasy as did his mental illness. I have to kill him and his mother to make it disappear, just like I did with Ron, just like Ron." He said with a slightly insane look and tone in his voice

He put the picture away as he continued to drive, still not finding him.

Back at the camp

Aaron walked into the lunchroom with Max.

"Need some coffee." He said

"Coffee! Black! Now!" Max then said afterward

The two then noticed everyone standing in line, the two walked over to Neil and Nikki.

"Morning guys." She said

"Okay, can you explain what's just going on here?" Aaron asked

"We're in line for breakfast." Neil said

Aaron looked over at the front of the line, and since he knew practically all the campers, he knew that it wouldn't be too long before everyone got their breakfast. Which sucked quite a lot if he was gonna be honest.

"Is anyone even serving breakfast?" Max asked

"Nope." Aaron said

The three looked at him, he had a slight frown on his face.

"Okay, this makes me glad that I actually pack food on me." Aaron said reaching into his pockets

He then pulled out some granola bars, one had some nuts in it, another had marshmallows, and the final one had chocolate chips.

Aaron then handed the one with nuts to Neil, the one with marshmallows to Nikki, and the one with chocolate chips to Max.

The three looked at him confused as he pulled out another chocolate chipped one.

"Why are you carrying these?" Neil asked

"It has fiber in it plus there's stuff on it to make you eat it." Aaron said after taking a bite of his

"These ones have different colored marshmallows in it." Nikki said

"Yeah, it makes it magically delicious... or that's at least what the commercial said." Aaron said

The two just ate their granola bars, not really saying much, he then said this.

"I'm surprised that you guys didn't question it. Us not getting breakfast yet, I mean."

"I'm a sheep, I don't ask questions." Neil said

"To be perfectly and utterly honest, that's a fucking terrible idea. You always question everything that needs questioning." Aaron said

"But what about back at Spooky Island?" Nikki said

"And I quote "everything that needs questioning", that whole thing didn't need that all that much lest we forget what happened?" Aaron said with a small shudder

"Not gonna lie, I still get nightmares about that." Max said

"Same... well I do get other nightmares but that's something entirely different that we are never going to get to... hopefully." Aaron said the last part within a mumble

That's when a trumpet started to play, freaking everyone else out except him who was perfectly fine with it.

"Huh, wonder who's playing the trumpet?" He asked

That's when the group of four walked outside the mess hall, with Ered behind them. They saw not only Cameron Campbell with Gwen and David nearby but also the Flowerscouts and-

"THE WOODSCOUTS!?" Aaron said surprised and angry

The leader looked at him and then smiled an evil grin which he found all too familiar with his gleaming yellow eyes.

'DICK PUNCH HIM!' was yelled over and over in his mind

"Thought I recognized your voice when you went to save your little friend, nice to see you again. Aaron." Edward said

"Shut the fuck up Edward, you know I walked away from your Cult after you changed practices." Aaron said angrily

Max looked at him shocked, he then sighed.

"I used to be with them, keyword being used." Aaron said

"And then you left after we 'changed' our practices." Edward said

"Trying to drug me is literally the reason I left." Aaron said

"Wait drug you?" Max asked

Aaron sighed yet again, he looked at him with a serious look.

"I don't know why but they told me that for some odd reason, I had a gift. So they tried to drug me into being basically their slave and make me create a program that not only kidnapped kids but also adults in order for them to become troop masters and thus causing their power to grow. When I found out about this, I made sure to destroy not only where they produced the drug but also made sure that I would never, ever let them manipulate me like that." Aaron said

"Are you sure is that what your fa-"

"Don't even mention that bastard of a father, you know I was VULNERABLE AT THE TIME!" Aaron yelled, tears starting to sprout

David started to look uneasy as Aaron glared at them, he noticed some of the tears leaking out of his eyes.

...What did they do to him?

"I thought you were my friends, made that mistake once and never doing it again you fucking cult leaders." Aaron said holding back the need to cry

"Okay campers, there's a reason why they are here." Cameron said

"Let me guess, we're doing a series of competitions in a Camporee or Camp Jamboree?" Aaron asked tears still in his eyes

"...Correct." Cameron said begrudgingly

Aaron then had a fierce look on his face as he wiped the tears from his face, the other campers now looking at him a little concerned. He never acted this way before and it was... a bit strange to see him like that.

"You know what, bring it the fuck on." He said

Later

Aaron currently had a pissed off look on his face as he looked at the other camps with a glare.

"I can't believe that we're now having to fight for this camp and our freedoms." Aaron said

"Okay, what has been up with you lately?" He heard Max say

He looked over to see the other campers, the camp staff (excluding Cameron) looking at him in concern with Max having a look of anger.

"What do you mean?" Aaron asked annoyed

"You've been spacing off, being out a lot more alone, thinking a lot, and you've been moody and slightly more anti-social then usual." Max said

"...And this concerns you how?" Aaron asked

"Kid, you've been really concerning us. You need to tell us what's going on." Gwen said

Aaron sighed, he looked at them.

"Fine, I'll tell you but you must never and I repeat never let this get out." He said

"...We'll do it, now tell us what's going on." David said

Aaron sighed, he pulled out a locket from his shirt and opened it. In it was him and his brother, he showed it to the other campers which caused some of them to say aww to the event

"I had a brother a long time ago." Aaron said somberly

"Had?" Gwen asked

"You see, you wanna know why you should be afraid of my real father?" Aaron asked

"Yeah actually, you mentioned him once and that was it." Neil said

"Let me ask you something, you ever heard about that family who's father went crazy, abused his family, and eventually killed his younger son saying he was a freak while burning down his home?" Aaron asked

"Oh yeah, I heard about that, it happened eight years ago. It was all over the news then, they never announced any names." Gwen said

"That... that was my father." Aaron said ashamed

The campers looked at him shocked, they looked back at the locket with a realization.

That was him when he was younger... and when his brother was alive.

"The kid who died was my younger brother, after that happened and he got arrested. He made a vow to find and kill me, and then kill my mother." Aaron said

"But he's still in jail... right?" David asked

Aaron said nothing, it then hit them like a pile of bricks.

"Your father escaped?" Nikki asked

"...Yes." Aaron said

"T-that's gonna... cause some problems isn't it?" Nerf asked a little terrified of the murderous father

"Oh majorly, that's only if he finds his way here." Aaron said

"And if he does?" Gwen asked

Aaron sighed as he put away the locket, he looked at them with an intensely serious look.

"Run out of here, run as fast as you can until you can find the police or something but don't say here with me. He'll kill you for even being around me or associated with me, this is my war with him and you guys don't need to get involved." Aaron said

"But we sh-"

"Max, listen, this guy is a murderer. He won't hesitate at all, you guys aren't his priority until you make him his priority." Aaron said

He put a shoulder on Max, a serious look mixed with one emotion Max never hoped to see in those eyes.

Genuine fear.

"I know you care and all but you need to stay on the sidelines once that happens, when it does. God help us if it does." Aaron said

Max looked at him with hesitation, his eyes told him that this wasn't something he was gonna back down on.

Max sighed and looked at Aaron with a frown.

"Fine but if we need to, I'll make sure that bastard pays." Max said

"Oh I know that." Aaron said

"Okay, now can you explain your backstory with the Woodscouts?" Nerris asked

"...Well, it took place a year after the murder, I had recently gotten through therapy since I couldn't talk at the time due to my father thinking it would do something bad. I had become very trusting of people that I felt I could trust anyone and if someone told me that's what my father would have wanted, I would go with it since I... you know I actually never really knew why but regardless. I met Edward, guy seemed nice at the time." Aaron said

"Wait, how old was he at the time?" David asked

"I was six and he was around eleven. When we met he was already in Woodscouts back when it wasn't a cult in all basic terms." Aaron said

"Wait there was a time when it wasn't a cult?" Preston asked

"Oh yeah, it was nice, everyone kind of got along, we did things the right way. But when Edward came into power, things changed. He started forcing new rules and even made me head adviser, he never listened to anything I said anyway and did things behind my back that I didn't know about. He always made me go out and do stuff, like survive in the woods alone. It's the reason why I like nature since I felt it listen to me sometimes, even in my darkest hour. After I got back, he kept using me for his own ends. After a bit, I figured it out after seeing him hold a needle in his hand as he sat me in a fake meeting." Aaron said

"And so you left?" Space Kid said

"Yeah, I sort of became a little shit and was less trusting to everyone I met. Never letting my guard down once lest I get hurt again, then I met my best friend and mentor. That's where things connect from what I told some of you before." Aaron said

Everyone looked at Aaron silent, they knew that he had some problems but this kind of took the cake.

"So... you're now more mentally stable?" Nurf asked

"Totally, I do have some moments of... going back to that dark place but I try to keep it under control." Aaron said

He then looked at everyone.

"Now that we've got that out of the way, we do need to work together on this. None of us want to end up with the Woodscouts not only because of what I told but we generally know they are kind of dicks." Aaron said

Everyone murmured their agreements, even David kind of agreed after hearing all of that.

Aaron then nodded with determination in his eyes.

"So here's the game plan, we're probably gonna do pretty bad on some of these but if I do some of the events. Then we've got a chance of winning but we might make a turning point at our five thus allowing us to win. So we're gonna need our most complicated and weirdest challenges, understood?" He said

Everyone nodded at this.

"Good, now let's beat those little shits!" Aaron said

Everyone cheered.

Five rounds later

Camp Campbell had thirty-six points while the Woodscouts had sixty-eight with the Flowerscouts in the lead with one hundred and ninety-nine.

"Well, we're getting the shit beat out of us but don't worry the parts that we have, we'll win at." Aaron said

"HOW?" Gwen asked

"We have a diverse set of camps, remember?" Aaron said with a smug look

It then hit Gwen, she looked at Aaron with a smile.

"I get what you're saying, LET'S DO THIS!" Gwen said

She then walked off, Aaron then raised an eyebrow.

"Aren't we doing the Woodscouts parts next?" He asked

Five rounds later (Again)

Camp Cambell now had fifty-eight points, Woodscouts had one hundred and ninety-three points with the Flowerscouts being one point behind the Woodscouts.

"SON OF A BITCH!" Gwen yelled

"Yeah, not surprised we wouldn't get that many points." Aaron said

"But we at least got two points from this." David said

"That's because i was around the Woodscouts for a bit like I said but they purposely make some of this difficult for other camps to win." Aaron said

"How'd you know that?" Max asked

"Snuck into their records department a long time ago and remembered their future plans." Aaron said

"Oh... wait how do you still remember that?" Max said

"Selective memory." He simply responded

Max raised an eyebrow and shrugged it off with a slow walk away. Aaron stood in front of all the campers.

"Alright everyone, now David has told you to work together and we're gonna win this fucking thing." He said

"How the hell do we do that!" Neil asked

"By wo-"

"David shut up, listen. Here's the only piece of advice that we have. Do what you do best." Aaron said

"Meaning?" Nurf asked

"Meaning, what I'm meaning is that all of us have a specific set of skills that we've all learned over our period of time at this camp. Since all of us are so good at what we do, WE'RE GONNA KICK THEIR ASSES STRAIGHT OUT OF HERE. WHO'S WITH ME!" Aaron said

Everyone looked at Aaron, a light slowly descended upon him for some odd reason.

But it made him look inspirational.

"LET ME ASK YOU SOMETHING, WHO'S THE CAMP WITH THE WEIRDEST SKILLS!" Aaron said

"Camp Campbell?" The campers said unsure

"WHO'S THE CAMP WITH A PLATYPUS AS THEIR MASCOT?" Aaron said

"Camp Campbell." The campers said surer than they were earlier

"WHO'S THE CAMP THAT HAS THAT BADASSERY OF SCIENCE, EXTREME SPORTS, ADVENTURE, SWORD FIGHTING, KEEPING UP WITH RHYMING, AND THE ABILITY TO DEFUSE A BOMB?" Aaron said

"Camp Campbell!" They said now a bit more confident

"AND ARE WE A NORMAL CAMP? NO! WE ARE A CAMP CAMP! NOW, WHO ARE WE?" Aaron said

"CAMP CAMPBELL!" The other campers yelled

"Alright, now let's do this." Aaron said

Four rounds later

Aaron stood in front of the other campers, a wooden sword on his shoulder.

"Final round, Sword Fighting." Aaron said

The other campers from the other camps had wooden swords, Aaron pointed his sword at them.

"To give you a chance since I'm a fair sport, I'll stand here and let you attack first." He said with a cocky grin

Billy growled and ran forward, he then looked at him with a blank look. Billy was about to strike him when Aaron slashed his sword out of his hand and into his own, Aaron then pointed the two at him.

"One strike equals one out, run." He said

Billy had tried to run away when Aaron spun like a tornado and struck him, Sasha had tried to strike him but Aaron backflipped into the air and threw both of his swords down striking her.

Aaron grabbed them again and blocked a weak strike from Edward with one sword and slashed him with the other, Petrol had a stronger strike but Aaron blocked with both and sent him away with all of his strength, hitting him afterward.

Tabii had tried to slash Aaron with him weakly tapping her on the head after sidestepping, leaving Aaron and Eren with each other.

"Huh, so I guess we're the only two left in the ring." He said

"I forfeit." She said raising her hand

"Good idea." Aaron said

She then walked out of the ring, thus earning Camp Campbell enough points to win.

"Welp, I guess the winner is us bitches." Aaron said putting on a pair of clip-on sunglasses while moonwalking backward to his camp

He had ended with a pose while crossing his arms with a smile as everyone cheered and smiled.

"Looks like we learned a lesson today." David said

"Yep, there are moments where you have to work together and moments where you don't." Aaron said

"I don't thi-"

"David, just shut up and relax. We just won, celebrate." Aaron said as he pulled out a bottle of grape juice

They didn't know where he got it but it was appreciated.

Later

David was sitting in his room, looking at the picture of the campers.

"I just don't get it, why do they hate camp so much?" David asked

"It's because times have changed." Someone said

David looked over to see Aaron laying on the window sill, looking at him.

"David, not everyone enjoys the same thing. I get that you want things to be like when you are a kid but the thing is David, things change over time. Some people don't want to do stuff like, I do it since I genuinely do enjoy it sometimes but Max doesn't enjoy it, Neil doesn't enjoy it, and hell I don't even think Quartermaster enjoys it. And i barely even know the guy." Aaron said

"But-"

"No buts David, you need to let things go." Aaron said

He then jumped off the window sill and into the soft grass outside of the cabin, he looked at David one last time. Saying this.

"You can't force them to do things you like."

Aaron then walked away silently, David sighed as he looked at a picture of him as a kid with a younger Cameron. He then had an idea.

"The sparrow." He said

Aaron meanwhile heard it, not leaving actually just to make sure David didn't do anything too stupid.

"Dammit David." He said under his breath

Aaron walked away, knowing what's gonna happen soon.

Meanwhile

Aaron's father had parked the truck in nearby woodland, he had sighed as he disguised himself and stole a magazine.

He opened and his eyes widened, he saw Aaron wearing clip-on sunglasses with the words CAMP CAMPBELL WINS CAMPOREE.

His eyes then turned into a harsh glare as he saw the rainbow aura again.

"Found you, freak." He said with disgust in his voice

Ominous, it looks like we're gonna have some more drama on our hands.

I'll see you guys in the Fandom.
