"You finished already?" Lucki asked tiredly.
Rachel didn't answer as she started walking back to camp.
"Yep, she always finishes sooner than everyone else. Just like Zero in D-Tent." Courtney said.
"Who?" Banana asked.
"Oh yeah, I forgot…oh, never mind." Courtney said.
"Who? What?" Banana asked again, confused.
"Just keep digging." Shorty said.
Rachel finally got to the showers, when she was stopped by Mr. Pendanski.
"Why didn't you dig your hole?" he exclaimed, "Don't you dare pull that crap on me again!"
"What? What're you talking about?" Rachel snapped, a little too loudly.
"You know damn well what I'm talking about Rachel," he said, "and don't expect to get out of this one. Now you go out onto that lake and dig your hole right now!"
"I have no idea what you're talking about Pendanski. You must've had too much sun." she said, moving away from him.
He grabbed her arm.
"Let go of me!" Rachel yelled, pulling away. Mr. Pendanski was not a very large man, so she slipped from his grasp immediately.
"Now, if you don't mind, I would like very much to go relax without any disturbances." she said, attempting to walk away once more.
"Now you listen here Rachel," Mr. Pendanski said, holding her shoulders with both hands, "You don't realize who you're lying to, do you? What is the point to lie to someone who knows the truth? I saw you minutes ago talking like you didn't know where the heck you were! And I am not about to let you go un-punished for what you did."
"What the hell did I do? What are you talking about?" Rachel yelled in his face, "I have been on that lake working my butt off all day, and you are accusing me of doing something worth punishment? Isn't digging a hole every day a good enough punishment for you people?" she yelled.
"Apparantly not." Mr. Pendanski paused
Rachel glared, and attempted to walk away, yet again.
Suddenly horrible pain seared through her head. Her hands immediately flew up to her face. Her ear was bleeding, and she gasped. Only to realize what had happened. Mr. Pendanski had hit her across the face and her right ear. He was strong for a little guy.
Rachel collapsed to a sitting position, her hands still clutching her face.
"Do not talk in that manner to me or anyone else in this camp again, UNDERSTOOD?" Mr. Pendanski yelled.
Rachel started breathing heavily as she got dizzy. She looked up at Mr. Pendanski and saw his hand go red, the one he had hit her with. Sure, he was a little guy, but he was perfect for hitting ornery children.
She touched her ear and felt the blood. She looked up at Mr. Pendanski again. It not only looked like there were multiple counselors there, but she could feel the earth spinning. She looked around, not knowing which way was up or down.
"Now, you go out there and dig another hole or I will hit you again." Mr. Pendanski said.
Strangely, Rachel never thought that Mr. Pendanski would do that. He seemed like a tiny little ant compared to everybody in the camp.
Rachel's head throbbed with pain. Numbness went through her whole body, and her ears were ringing.
Rachel felt like she was going to faint, when she saw a girl walking in front of her. She looked like the exact mirror image of herself. It was herself, Rachel was positive, but slightly different. The girl's hair was down and wavy, almost curly. Her face was exactly like Rachel's, except for a large freckle right on her jaw bone, by her ear.
The girl's mouthed opened as she saw Rachel, and ran away as fast as she could. Rachel didn't know what was going on, but she thought that she saw the girl running into The Warden's cabin. All Rachel could think about was the pain as she got up and walked into the Wreck Room, covering her bleeding ear with both hands.
