Zero's Story

Chapter Three- An Opening at Camp Green Lake

- - -

Days turned into weeks, weeks turned into months, and things hadn't changed for the better yet. The food was still slop, the holes were still being dug, and the night teases were still going on. The only thing about this camp that was looking up was I always finished my hole before anyone else so I always got some alone time, which helps when you're stuck out in the blazing sun all day. The only other thing that changed was Barf-Bag's attendance.

Barf-Bag would always say things like how he would rather die than be at this camp, but no one ever thought any thing of it because everyone said it. He actually stopped eating for a couple of days to see if he could starve himself, but even if he did eat, he would still starve, so he gave up on that plan. Then, he tried to dehydrate himself, but that was just a little harsh. His last plan, though, worked, it got him out of this place and right in to the ER.

One afternoon, Magnet pointed out a rattlesnake by his hole. I guess when Barf-Bag heard it, an idea popped up in his head. I was just finishing my hole when I heard X-ray yelling.

"Don't do man! It's not that bad! It ain't that bad!"

I looked up to see what was going on, and there was Barf-Bag, reaching out for that snake to bite him. He was really desperate! More people started yelling as he got closer. Then we all heard a loud scream to let us know it was all over.

The next day, after Barf-Bag left, I finished my digging, so I was heading back to the tent. I saw a figure emerge from a bus. I figured it was the new kid so I waited to see how he looked, and as he got closer, I noticed he had long hair and a lack in height (finally, I wasn't the shortest person there!) Then it dawned on me. The new kid was a girl!
