Part 11: Two Plans In Action
Magnet turned the car towards the mountain, but it was not long until guards came after them.
"WHAT ARE YOU GUYS DOING?" they yelled, running after the car.
"Keep going Magnet!" said Armpit, waving at the guards, who were furious.
As the car spend out and the guards could no longer keep up, X-ray peeped out the window, waved and yelled, "You all be good now!" then laughed.
*
"HILARY I DEMAND AN EXPLENATION!" yelled the Warden coming into the empty tent, hearing Hilary's yells. Her eyes moved to the heap on the bed. "What the heck happened to you?"
She ripped of the blanket, and glared at Hilary, who was gasping for air. "Ugh! Now I smell like dirty underwear and socks!" she said. The Warden's gave looked down, and she saw the underwear and socks.
"What happened?"
"Well, we were playing spin the bottle, you see, and they tricked me! Squid and I were making out and then suddenly they tied me up and stuffed the blanet with their underwear and socks! Where did they go anyway?"
The Warden glared at her. "They took the water truck and LEFT!"
"Oh......"
"How could you be so stupid?"
"They are pretty good actors I actually believed they were really playing spin the bottle!" said Hilary guiltily.
"How could you believe them?" The Warden started to pace the room, thinking. "They're heading towards the mountain. Probably trying to find the hideout before us....... little rascals........They're trying to get the gold out themselves! We must beat them there!" she muttered to herself.
"Ok......... what are you talking about?"
"Nevermind just follow me you stupid girl."
*
Becky sat back down after more exploring, trying to figure out what to do now.
"The boys aren't here, the Warden isn't here, when else am I supposed to do?"
After about another hour of walking, she got bored and ate a little more, then fell back asleep.
*
The car sped forward, and at last they felt safe. Until the wind around them started to whirl around them faster and faster.
"What the heck!" yelled X-ray over the sound of the wind, closing the window.
"It's a helicopter!" said Zigzag.
"Come on Zig, we're not believing your paranoid ideas now!" said Squid. The car was getting harder to control.
"No, I mean it really is!"
"Huh?"
The wind started to slow down as the helicopter flew passed that at enormous speed. As they stopped the car they could hear a girl's screaming from the helicopter.
"Hilary." muttered Magnet.
"What the heck is she doing in a helicopter?" asked Twitch.
"Probably to beat us to the mountain." said Squid, squinting.
"Then we better get moving." said Magnet, then the car started up again. They drove unbelievable fast, and it was amazing they didn't fall into any holes.
"Whoa, whoa Magnet..... STOP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!" yelled Twitch as the mountain came closer, thought it was hard to see.
"We're going too fast!" said Magnet.
"Just yank the keys out of it!" suggested Squid. "Just do anything before we die!"
"MOMMY!!!!!!!" yelled Armpit as everyone shielded themselves, waiting for the collision.
Suddenly there was a loud bang and the car came to a jerky stop, just about 2 inches in front of the mountain. No one moved. Finally after a few minutes, and all uncovered themselves.
"Good driving Magnet! You saved us!" said ZigZag.
"But-"
"That was sweet!" said Twitch.
"But I-"
"How did you ever stop in time?" asked Squid.
"I didn't!" Magnet finally said. "We just ran out of gas."
There was a small silence, then everyone burst out laughing.
"Whew! That was VERY good luck! Man that was sweet!" said Squid.
*
"What the heck?"
Becky jerked awake to a very loud sound.
"Sounds like a helicopter!" She gasped, wicked got out and ran to the other side of the mountain, almost falling off. "Whoa! That was close."
She looked up, and saw the helicopter in the sky, then the water truck racing towards the mountain.
"How did they get a helicopter?" she wondered.
The helicopter got closer and closer, until she could see inside it.
"What a minute! That's the Warden! The guys must be trying to beat them..... but if they keep driving that fast, they'll crash!"
She started moving down the mountain, trying not to fall down. She couldn't get any closer before they crashed, she screamed "STOP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!"
Suddenly the car broke down and stopped. She fell backwards onto the ground, breathing hard with her hand over her chest. "Thank god!"
*
The boys came out, swinging their hats and shirts, shouting out "BAAAAAAAAAAAAAABBBBBBBBBBBYYYYYYYYY!" and spraying out water from the truck. Becky laughed, shaking her head, and headed down to them.
"Jeez you scared me to death!" she said, grinning as they all turned around.
"Becky!" Magnet grinned wildly, and run up the rest of the mountain up to her, the other boys not far behind.
"You're alive!" said Squid.
"Of course I am!" said Becky, but she didn't talk that long. Magnet and Becky instantly started kissing right when they got together.
"Awww come on what about us? We've missed you too!" said Squid.
Becky pulled back from Magnet, and grinned. "Hold that thought." she said.
She hugged the rest of the guys, Squid the longest. "So what's been going on?" she asked him.
He shrugged. "Probably nothing compared to what's been going on with you." he said, grinning.
"Uh, guys, what about that helicopter?" said Twitch. Becky gasped.
"We've got to get it away from here!"
"Well, what do you think we came do, shoot it down with guns?" said Armpit sarcastically.
Becky looked desperately at the helicopter which was starting to lower onto the top of the mountain.
"I GOT IT!" she suddenly shouted, running to the car.
"What?" asked X-Ray as they all followed her.
"Is there a phone in here?" she asked, looking through the car.
"I don't think so."
"Well help me look!"
"Alright alright."
They looked through the car as door slam sounds came from the helicopter.
"HURRY!" Becky hissed.
"Here's one!" said X-ray, Becky grabbed it and started dialing. After a few seconds, she started talking.
"Hello? Hi grandpa! It's Becky....I'm still at camp..... We're on the mountain.... listen! Can you head over quick? The Warden is trying to dig up the mountain. What? Oh....... I don't know! She's probably blow it up or something! Alright so you'll be here in around 3 hours? Ok!-"
"Three hours!?!?!" said Armpit, a little too loudly.
"Be quiet!....Alright we'll try to stall her as long as I can! Bye! See you- AGGGGGGGGGGHHHHHHHHH!!!!!" Suddenly the phone dropped into a nearby hole and Becky was dragged out of the car.
"Ow! Ow! Hey what are you doing?"
"Ouch! You're sitting on my head!" yelled Squid. Then Becky fell out of the car hard.
"What the heck?" said Becky, then she gasped. She was standing in front of the Warden and Hilary, who had been pulling her out of the car.
*
"Hello? Becky? What happened? Oh dear!" Becky's grandpa vioce came from the phone. Then the hang up sound came, and no voice came out.
Magnet turned the car towards the mountain, but it was not long until guards came after them.
"WHAT ARE YOU GUYS DOING?" they yelled, running after the car.
"Keep going Magnet!" said Armpit, waving at the guards, who were furious.
