Chapter 8
I blearily opened my eyes when I heard a bugle play Reville. The boys all sat up, and pulled on their work jumpsuits.
ZigZag reached over and shook my shoulder.
"C'mon, Shadow. Up and at 'em." I glared at him.
"To early. What time is it?"
"Four thirty."
"FOUR FREAKING THIRTY???!!!" That woke me up. "I will *not* get up at four thirty in the morning!!"
"Ok, babe. You want to be digging through the hottest part of the day? You can stay in bed then." I looked at Zero, and he smiled and nodded. "He's right, Shad. You got to get up."
"Bah." I slid out of bed, and pulled on my jumpsuit. "God, I hate this freaking place!!"
"Dude, I think she's broken a new record! Hates this place all ready, and she hasn't even dug one hole yet!"
"You know what, Caveman? You're pretty funny." He grinned. "Funny LOOKIN'!" I walked passed him and out of the tent.
"Don't take it personally, man. She's always grumpy in the mornings." When I heard Zero say that, I turned around to face them. Walking backwards, I said,
"Ya...sorry Caveman. I HATE MORNINGS!!!!" I grinned, and held out my arms. "Apple o' my eye!" Zero ran down the tent steps an into my arms. I gave him a big hug, and swung him up on my back. "Let's go get brekkie!"
I walked over to the table that had tortillas and honey sitting on it. I grabbed one for myself, and passed another one to Zero. "You get honey in my hair, you die."
"Yeahokaywhatever." We got in line to get shovels from the library. I grabbed the first one I saw, and, sticking the last of the tortilla in my mouth, grabbed another one for Zero. He jumped down off my back and I handed it to him.
"Thanks Shadow!"
"You're welcome!" He ran off to talk to Caveman, and I felt someone try to take my shovel. I turned around and there was X-ray, his hand wrapped around my shovel handle. I jerked it away.
"What the hell do you think you're doing?" Magnet, who had just walked up, answered.
"You have X-ray's shovel. It's shorter than all the rest of them."
"Smaller shovel, smaller hole," Squid added. I smirked at them, and glared at X.
"Well I guess X-ray is just gonna have to dig a bigger hole today!" I swung the shovel around, and the flat of the blade hit X right in the crotch. He doubled over, grimacing. "Oops!" I grinned, and walked away.
"Man, you really have it in for X, don't you?" ZigZag asked, falling into step next to me.
"Nah. Once he gets it through his thick head that he has to do what *I* say, instead of me doing what *he* says, it'll be all right."
"Control freak," ZigZag muttered.
"Hey, I'm not a control freak!! I just don't want to be told what to do! Plus, I like to be in control! Total, absolute, con—" I started laughing at myself, "Okay, so maybe I am a control freak." ZigZag started laughing too, and the other, half-asleep campers gave us some strange looks that said, "Why the hell are you laughing that hard at 4:30 in the morning???" That only made us laugh harder.
