Chapter Twelve: Winner's Walk
That night was the first Winner's Walk of the whole camp session. Vince was psyched. He was one of the first kids who had won four coins! He and several other kids had their four coins put onto a necklace sort of thing and it was wrapped around their necks. They were all getting ready to make their big procession in front of the camp.
Outside, the other kids were sitting in the make-shift stadium outside. Bob was waiting to see Lance and Vince come out. He of course could have cared less about winning and making a big scene about being a "champ of champs". However, he could tell Lawson (who was sitting beside him) was a "little" ticked off about Vince beating him.
"Dude, will you get over it?" Bob told him. "It's just a few lousy cheap coins the camp probably ordered from an Oriental Trading catalog."
"Huh?" Lawson asked, snapped out of the little daze he was in. "What are YOU talking about?"
"About Vince walking in the big parade and not you, duh, what else would I be talking about?"
"Oh. Well, I wasn't even thinking about that."
Bob was surprised. Lawson not thinking about how Vince had beat him? Very odd... "Then, what's with the silence? It's getting kinda eerie."
"Uh, I was just thinking about something weird that happened. See, I was practicing swinging the ole bat, and I accidentally rammed into Larry's ribcage who was standing behind me, and–"
"He fell over in pain and they had to call the nurse?"
"Let me finish, will ya? Anyways, I turned around, scared to death that I may have killed the guy or something and he just looks at me and does that cheesy grin thing and starts telling me batting tips! He didn't even wince or nothing!"
Bob never thought he'd encounter a wild enough story that even HE couldn't figure out. Being a former king, he'd had to figure out some crazy tales before. But this was beyond him.
"Well...," he started, trying to think of a logical reason for Larry's behavior. "Maybe he was holding it in until he got somewhere by himself and THEN bawled like a baby."
"Yeah...right."
Then, they all heard a trumpet sound and the Winner's Walk finally began. Five kids in all, including Vince and Lance, marched out in single file in front of all to see. Cheers from all around entered the air.
That's when it hit Lawson that Vince was out there. "Hey! How'd HE get four coins before ME?"
Later that night, Bob woke up at around midnight. He glanced over at Vince's cot on the floor and noticed that he wasn't back yet. Suddenly feeling a pang of worry, he sat up in bed (carefully, so he wouldn't ram his head into the ceiling) and jumped onto the floor.
Lawson was still asleep in bed, so Bob started shaking him. "Hey! Hey! Wake up!"
Finally, he woke up, not very happy either. "What the heck is your problem? I'm TRYING to sleep!"
"Listen, Vince isn't back yet. I'm kinda worried about him."
"Well, go look for him," Lawson muttered, burying his head back under his pillow.
Bob snatched it away from him. "Will you get up? I'm serious, he should've been back by now."
"What do you want us to do?" Lawson asked, sitting up. "Go outside and LOOK for him?"
FIVE MINUTES LATER
The two guys were tiptoeing outside the cabin as not to wake anybody up.
"Me and my big mouth," Lawson muttered.
Uh oh! Now Vince is missing! What's the deal with this camp? Did Vince receive the same fate as Tim's, whatever it was? Will Bob and Lawson figure out what's going on? Have to keep reading to find out!
