Hope ya like!

Chapter 1

"I can run faster than you!" shrieked a small boy, running in the grass by a large farmhouse towards a thicket of woods.

"No you can't!" cried a little girl from behind him, trailing on his heels.

After a few moments of squealing, screaming, laughing, and running, they both collapsed on top of each other in the woods.

The girl's long blond hair mixed with his shaggy version of the same color.

They giggled and started to wrestle, calling out things like, "I'm gonna get you!" and ,"Ouch! That's my hair!"

After a few minutes, the girl froze still. Her blue eyes filled with fright as they became glassy, and she stopped breathing.

"Nessa?" the little boy panted.

The girl hit the brush-covered ground and started shaking.

"Nessa!" he screamed.

Zig-Zag spat in his hole, took the last swig of water from his canteen, and turned to walk away, hitching his dust-covered shovel onto his shoulder.

5 feet wide, 5 feet deep, he thought to himself blandly as he walked past Armpit, who was just finishing his hole.

He threw his shovel down at the shack marked "Library" and proceeded into a tent graffitied with a giant, bold "D".

He sat down on his cot, exhausted. He laid back and closed his eyes, sighing, not aware of Caveman and Squid playing with dice made out of rocks on the next-over cot and talking about the new camper that was supposed to be arriving today, and Zero laying down silently on his cot in the corner.

He was so tired. Last night he had this feeling in the pit of his stomach, and he was restless. Couldn't sleep. He felt like something exciting was about to happen, or something. He didn't know where the feeling came from, considering the only source that would bring him happiness is freedom from Camp Greenlake, and he still had 14 months to go.

"Yo," Armpit called as he entered the tent.

Zig-Zag opened one eyelid, and held out his hand as Armpit passed to give him dap (A/N: wow guys, yup, I said DAP… Lmao).

"Hey, Armpit, Magnet," Caveman said mindlessly as Armpit plopped down on his cot, and as Magnet trailed in behind him.

"Hol-" Magnet began, but was caught off by a startling, loud entrance from X-Ray.

"GUYS!" he whooped.

They all looked surprised, except Zero, and turned towards him.

X-Ray's dirt-covered face and glasses were radiant behind the grime.

"You know dat new camper that be comin' today?"

The other guys didn't look up and simultaneously muttered an "mmmhmm."

"Well, he's-.. it's a GIRL!" X-Ray yelled.

The guys looked up, all curious except Zero.

Squid blinked once, and shook his head.

Armpit chuckled. "You be trippin', dog," he said with a smile.

X-Ray looked baffled. "I'm serious, dude! You don't believe me?"

Zig-Zag sat up. "There ain't no girl comin' to Greenlake."

Caveman nodded. "Why would they let a girl in?"

X-Ray groaned. "I ain't makin' this up! Mom told me when I was in the Rec Room!"

"Drugs are bad, X-Ray," Magnet said with a laugh.

"Yo, whatev'. But when a girl steps off that bus-" X-Ray cut off as everyone heard an engine's roar grow louder.

X-Ray ran out of the tent.

Squid looked at Caveman.

Caveman looked at Armpit.

Armpit looked at Magnet.

Magnet looked at Squid.

They all jumped up and tried to beat each other out of the tent, jumping over cots and pushing each other out of the flap.

Zero turned away from the wall, a slight smile on his face.

Well, I have to get off at 10:30 and its 10:26 now, so I was going to make this chapter longer, but you know how it is! Def. Be up tomorrow night!

Thanks for reading!
