Chapter 5: Nicknames
The bugle was playing again. Kylie heard the girls get up and Adrianna say, "Kylie! Get up! Come on! I don't wanna keep yelling at you."
Kylie groaned and said, "Alright, alright. I'm up." She climbed out of bed and pulled on her suit. The girls filed outside, still half asleep, and got inline for shovels. Mr. Sir came and opened up the shed where the shovels were kept. When Kylie got hers, she told herself that if someone took her shovel, she would not fight them. Whatever they did, she would not fight them, unless, of course, they hurt her. But, thankfully, no one did. Kylie grabbed her honey tortilla, forced herself to eat at least a quarter of it, before she threw it on the ground. Mr. Sir and Pendanski led them to where they were digging, and, once again, G-Tent was right next to D-Tent.
They boys and girls were feeling awkward towards each other because of the Truth or Dare game they played the night before. Especially Magnet and Kylie.
After about an hour of silence, Kylie decided on something to break it.
"So, do you think you guys could come up with some nicknames for us?"
Everyone looked at her.
"What?" X-Ray asked.
"Well, I've been thinking, and I've decided that it might be better if we had nicknames. Well, at least me. I don't know if the rest of my girls want any. do you guys?" She asked them.
They all nodded enthusiastically.
"Um, okay then." X-Ray started.
He started studying Jessica. "Um, let's see."
"Tiny." (A/N: I know. original. And I left out that Jessica is short. Whoops!)
"Tiny?" Kylie asked.
"What? You got something better?" X-Ray asked her.
"Um." Kylie studied Jessica for a moment.
"Owl." She concluded
"Owl?" They all questioned.
"Yes. For her big, nervous eyes." Kylie told them.
"Okay," X-Ray said, a little annoyed that Kylie had come up with a nickname too. "Jessica, do you like Owl or Tiny?"
"Owl." She said very quietly.
"Okay. So, Owl it is."
Jessica smiled a little.
"Okay. Next." X-Ray said, and his eyes fell on Adrianna. "Um."
"Wait. Can us girls do them? We know more about each others back rounds and interests." Kylie asked X-Ray.
"Sure." X-Ray looked relived that he didn't have to name everybody.
"Um." Kylie thought back to Adrianna's interests.
"Oreo, because Adrianna would always eat oreo's, and after she did, she got very hyper. How do you like that?" Francis asked Adrianna.
"I like it." (A/N: Just to let you guys know, they're digging while they're doing this.)
"Okay, so Oreo it is."
"Now, let's do Ashley." Audrey said.
"Okay." The girls started thinking of a name that might suit Ashley.
"Oh! How 'bout Bubbles?" Chelsea asked.
"Oh yeah! See, Ashley brought, like, five bubble things with her when we got sent to our first camp, but they were taken away from her, and she threw a HUGE tantrum and she was swearing so much. It was like a scene from an R movie. It was so funny." Francis exclaimed. They all laughed and Ashley blushed.
"So, how's Bubbles?" Audrey asked Ashley.
"Okay." She agreed.
"So, Bubbles it is!"
"Now it's Francis's turn!" Kylie said.
The girls started thinking of what would suit Francis.
"Aqua." Said Bubbles. (A/N: I know lots of water. and Author Notes.)
"Yeah! Francis loves the color blue! I don't know if you guys noticed, but the day we came here, she was wearing and aqua blue shirt and aqua blue pants. And right now she has aqua blue shoes on." Oreo added, laughing. They all started laughing with her, including Francis.
"Okay, I like Aqua." Francis said.
"Alright. Now let's do Audrey." Chelsea said.
"That's easy," Oreo said right away. "Blondie." Everyone burst out laughing.
"Why Blondie?" Caveman asked.
"Because Audrey loves her blonde hair." Aqua said simply.
They all laughed again.
"Now it's Chelsea." Aqua said.
"Cheetah," Kylie stated. "Because when she runs, she really runs!"
"Okay," Chelsea said. "And last, but not least, Kylie."
The girls started thinking of a name that would suit Kylie.
"Punch!" Aqua exclaimed.
"No," Kylie said right away. "I-I don't like it."
"Um. okay." Aqua said a little confused.
By now, Zero had just finished while everyone else had about four feet. Zero walked over to Owl's hole and sat on the edge of it. No one but Zero saw this, but Owl smiled at him.
"Raro," Owl said very quietly.
"Raro?" Everyone except Zero asked as they looked at her.
"It means 'wolf' in Spanish." Magnet answered her.
Owl nodded.
"Raro. I like that. Okay, so Raro it is." Kylie said smiling.
Owl smiled again. She seemed to smile a lot more now that she had told Raro her secret.
By now, everyone had finished digging, so, they all walked back to camp.

I also don't mean to confuse anyone by changing their names, I just thought it might be better if they had nicknames.
