Chapter Three
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The first rays of light were beginning to streak through the trees, dimly lighting the forest. Bobby sat huddled in the car, still staring out the window. He swore that the mosquitoes had doubled since last night, swarming over the car so that he could barley see out the windows. Something tickled his ear and he swatted it away. He looked around the car for a moment, but seeing nothing he turned his attention back to the window.
"Hahahahaha, you can't get me, nah nah nah ," Bobby taunted the mosquitoes, sticking his tongue out at them. Something tickled his ear again, this time accompanied by a buzzing sound. He whipped his hand up and smacked himself in the ear. "Oww. What the heck is going on?" He looked around the car. His eyes got impossibly large as he looked at the air conditioning ducts. "Ohhhh no." A swarm of mosquitoes were coming from the air conditioning ducts. "Are they supposed to be that smart?" Bobby whispered to himself. The mosquitoes all came towards him. "AHHHH OH GOD!!" He turned to the door and was about to open it when he saw all the mosquitoes still at the windows. Were they waiting for him? Oh God! Was this all a plan to lure him out?!
He swallowed with some difficulty and told himself to quit being such a wuss. Surely the mosquitoes wouldn't hurt him that bad. Right?
*BBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZ*
"AAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!" He wrenched the door open and tore like mad through the campsite and towards the girl's tent. The mosquitoes wouldn't get him in there!
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Jean woke with the sun streaming into her eyes. She yawned and stretched luxuriantly, the cloth of her blanket falling away and revealing naked skin before opening her eyes to greet the day. She stopped for a moment. Something was curled up next to her side, really close to her side actually. With sandy blond hair?
"AH GOD DAMMIT!! BOBBY!!!!!!" Her shout startled Bobby awake, who shot up from his sleeping position to stare at her in wide eyed wonder. His sudden movement caused Storm, who was on his other side to sit up as well. He turned to look at her and his eyes nearly bugged out of his head.
"Either I'm havin' a really good dream or I've died and gone to heaven," Bobby murmured in a dream like voice, eyes clouding over, smarmy grin on his face.
"BOBBY GET OUT!!!!!!" Jean screamed, grabbing hold of Bobby telekinetically and preparing to hurl him out of the tent. "Storm?"
"Yes, Jean?" There was an angry edge to her voice.
"Would you open the flap, please?"
"Of course."
"Uh, what are you doing? You can't throw me out there! NO WAIT!!!" Bobby went sailing through the air and straight into the other boys who were still huddled together in their sleep.
"NOW STAY OUT OF OUR TENT!!!!" Storm yelled as she zipped the flap closed.
Bobby glared at the tent for a moment and then his eyes got glazed as he remembered just what was inside of it. He didn't notice where he had landed.
"An' jus' what were y' doin' in de girls tent, homme?" asked a deceptively quiet Remy. Bobby looked down to see he was sprawled all over Remy and Scott who were huddled close together, embracing. Bobby almost choked on his laughter.
"Um, is there something that you two want to share?"
Scott and Remy looked at him and then to each other before trying to shove the other away, looks of disgust on their faces. Unfortunately it didn't work so good as Remy pushed back into Sam who instantly trapped him in an embrace still sleeping soundly.
"ARGH!! GET HIM OFF!!!"
"Hehehehe..." Bobby tried to suppress his laughter but it still erupted in fits of giggles. Remy finally managed to shove Sam off of him and turned to glare at Bobby. "So, care to tell me why you are all cuddling? Hehehe."
"Don' try t' change the subject, Drake! What were y' doin' in de girls tent?!" Both Remy and Scott pinned Bobby with death glares.
"Well, I, uh…It's just that…bye!" With that Bobby turned and raced away from his two fuming teammates.
"GET BACK HERE, ICE CUBE!!!" Scott yelled while racing after him.
"Whoa, stop, mon ami!!" Scott skidded to a halt and looked back at Remy who was looking in terror at something behind him. Scott turned around and gasped as he saw it as well. "What de heck is dat t'ing?"
"Uh, I dunno…it kinda looks like a really big cow…" Rogue, who had gotten up when she heard all the screaming, overheard their conversation and walked up behind them.
"Ya morons. That's not a cow, it's a moose!"
"Ooooohhhhhh," they both said in unison. Then, "What's a moose?"
"Argh! Y'all are hopeless!" She stalked away from them. They shrugged their shoulders and decided to follow her back to camp. They would deal with Bobby later.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
"Here, Wolvie Wolvie Wolvie!" Jubilee called out. She had been searching for him since last night now and she was starting to get a little angry at him. "Wolvie, if you come out I'll give ya a nice big steak!" She heard a growling noise coming from behind her. "Wolvie?"
She turned around and saw a cute little bear cub was following in her footsteps. "Awww, well aren't you cute!" She looked around for a moment but saw nothing. "I wonder where your mother is," she though aloud. The bear cub tilted its head at her. "I bet your hungry, aren't ya?" The cub said nothing but continued to watch her. "Hmmmm, I wonder if we could find some honey for you? Come on and I'll look!" She walked off and the bear cub followed behind her.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
"So what do you think would be good for dinner tonight?" Warren asked.
"There's a lake nearby ah bet ah could catch some fish!" Sam exclaimed, excited.
"Mmmm, sounds good. Remy, y'all can go with him instead of sittin' around here doin' nothin'." Remy looked up from where he was sprawled out on a hammock.
"What?! But I don' know nuthin' 'bout fishin'!"
"Ah'm sure Sam'll teach ya."
"Well, I don' want t' impose on de boy…"
"No, I'd be happy ta teach ya, sir!" Sam was practically bouncing up and down now.
"Go on, Remy, it will be fun." Remy sighed but hoisted himself off the hammock and followed Sam who had gathered everything they would need. Sam led him to the lake and began handing him a fishing rod and bait.
Remy looked at the wriggling worm with disgust. "I'm not touching dat!" Sam shrugged and baited his hook for him. He handed the rod to Remy. Remy looked at it doubtfully, then looked back at Sam.
"Now ya cast it inta the water," Sam exclaimed, doing so with his own rod.
"Oh." He paused. "How do I do dat?"
"Just swing the rod back and then forward. Ya have ta put your finger on the line and release…" He talked Remy through the movements. "There ya go!" He said proudly once Remy understood.
"So I just go like dis and den-" He casted the line only to get it hooked on the trees behind him. "Dammit!" Sam untangled it for him and told him to try again. He did so and the line made it about two feet into the water. He grinned, proud of himself.
"That's, uh, real good. Now try ta get it farther."
Remy reeled the line back in and tried again. After about ten more tries he finally got in into the water right. Sam felt relief wash over him.
"Ah think ya got it now. You'll be fine on your own." Remy didn't answer, just nodded and watched the line, waiting for a fish to bite. Sam settled onto the grass and leaned back against a tree, after re-casting his own line into the water. He set the rod beside him and pulled his straw hat over his eyes, dozing in the sun.
There was about an hour of silence, nothing happening.
"SAM!!" Sam jerked out of his daydreaming and looked over at Remy.
"What? Did you get something?"
"No! How long does dis take?!"
"Sometimes it takes all day."
"WHAT?!"
"Be quiet or you'll scare the fish away."
"What fish?! I ain't seen no fish since we got here!!"
"Shhhh, fishin' takes patience." Remy grumbled but went quiet and continued to glare at his line. Sam went back to his day dreaming.
There was another ten minutes of silence.
"SAM!!"
"WHAT!?!"
"Dere's somet'ing pulling on de line! What do I do?!" Sam looked at him in astonishment.
"Ya got a bite? Reel it in!"
"Kay. How?"
"First of all ya gotta jerk the line so the hook sets properly."
"Kay. Like dis?" Remy gave the line a hard jerk and the two watched as a fish went flying through the air. Remy's line went slack. "Um, what just happened?"
"Ya jerked the line to hard."
"Dammit! I ain't never gonna catch a fish!"
"Patience." Sam went back to his daydreaming.
"Sam?"
"What now?"
"Would you put another worm on my hook t'ing?" Sam sighed and prayed for the day to end.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
"Hmmmm, hey there's lot's of bees over there! Let's go check it out!" Jubilee said to the bear cub before jogging over to where the bees were. "It's a bee hive! There'll be lots of honey in there!!" She walked up to the bee hive which was hanging from a low hanging tree branch. She reached it easily and grabbing a stick began to poke at it, trying to get the honey out. She poked it a little too hard, though, and the hive fell to the ground. The bees did not look happy and came swarming out at her. "Ooooops. AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!!!" She turned and ran, the bear cub looking after her for a moment before going over to the bee hive.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
"HA! I got another bite!!"
"Well good for ya! Don't jerk it so hard this time."
"What kinda idiot do y' t'ink I am?"
"Ya really want me ta answer-"
"AAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!" They both whipped their heads around to see what was happening. Jubilee came racing down the hill, heading straight towards the lake, a cloud of bees following her. "AAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!"
"NON! PETITE WAIT!!!" *SPLASH*
Jubilee leapt into the water, knocking down Remy in the process and causing him to lose his fish. Jubilee looked around cautiously and seeing that all the bees had gone, smiled sheepishly at Remy.
"Sorry 'bout that."
"DAT'S IT!! REMY HATES FISHIN'"
"Hey! Ah got one!" Sam cried reeling in a huge trout.
"ARGH!!!" Remy stomped out of the lake, dripping wet and miserable. He stalked up to the bank, then turned back to glare at Sam. "I AIN'T NEVER DOIN' DIS AGAIN!!!" He turned back and ran right into the legs of the moose he had seen earlier. She turned her large head back to look at him. She didn't look all that happy. "Heh, nice cow, I mean moose! Nice moose. Take it easy now, I'm not gonna-" She snorted and lowered her head at him. "…crap…"
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
"YYYYYYYYYYYAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!" Scott and Warren looked up to see Remy run screaming through the camp, rampaging moose right on his tail. They watched for a moment before turning their attention back to each other.
"So Poker of Gin?" Warren asked.
"Eh, whatever you want." Warren began laying out the cards for another game of gin.
