Tease Me, Tease Me Not- Chapter 4: Lala Luca
I updated quickly (I rule!). This chapters fun! Senseless bickering, dirt and... hula hops? Well, read on.
"Alright everyone! Get into your assigned groups and wait for your number to be called," the school principal yelled over the chitter chatter of the students. Everyone slowly dragged themselves away from their groups and said good-bye to their friends. Yuna actually saw a couple of girls cry as they parted.
Yuna walked over to meet up with Lulu, "Kill me now," she said as she stared over at Rikku hoping up and down and Tidus tossing a mini blitzball into the air and catching it with the other hand.
"Only if you kill me first." Lulu said.
"Groups one through four, report to bus number one."
Once the group arrived at the camp they were greeted by four overly hyper councilors, "All righty! Group number three follow me! Check it out! I rhymed!" the councilor said with a giggle. Yuna rolled her eyes and continued down the trail.
What are we? Four!
The group kept hiking, staying completely silent. Eventually there was a clearing in the woods. Tidus could see a camp containing two huts, a picnic table, and a small pond with a bridge across it. The whole thing seemed very primitive. "Ok folks, here we are! Girls take the hut on the right and boys your on the left. Everyone settle in and drop off your bags. Meet back here in ten minutes for further directions."
The group ran off to their designated huts. "I call the top bunk!" Rikku shouted as she ran for the top of the bunk bed and hoped up.
"What ever." Paine said as she sat underneath Rikku. Yuna took the top of the other bunk bed and Lulu sat down on the bunk below her.
"This entire place is filthy!" Yuna said in disgust.
After they settled in the four girls headed out to the picnic table, where the three boys were already sitting. "Okay my perky new campers! Let's hear your names and your favorite color! Who wants to start?"
Rikku immediately shot up her hand. Everyone looked at her like she was contagious. "Oooohhhh! Me, Me Me!" Rikku screamed. "My name's Rikku and my favorite color is yellow!" Rikku tilted her head and grinned.
"Nice to meet you Rikku. I'm Stacy and my favorite color is green. Like the leaves on the trees. Since you went first Rikku, you get to pick who goes next."
"Gippal!"
Gippal rolled his eyes and sighed, "I'm Gippal and my favorite color is Grey. Your up Paine."
"Whatever," Paine responded, "I'm Paine and my favorite color is red, like blood." The councilors eyes widened at that statement, "Go ahead Yuna."
"I'm Yuna and my favorite color is blue. Lulu."
"I'm Lulu and my favorite color is black. It's your turn Wakka."
"I'm Wakka, ya? And my favorite color is orange like my hair," he said as he ran his hand through his hair. Lulu rolled her eyes and went back to staring at the ground.
"I guess I'm the only one left. My name is Tidus and my favorite color is blue like a blitzball."
"Well Tidus that's interesting you have the same favorite color as Yuna. As good sign of friendship…" The councilor said, shortly cut off by the laughter of Gippal, Rikku, and Lulu.
"Are you kidding? They HATE each other!" Gippal said through his laughter.
"Oh really?" Stacy said, "Well, then let's play a game. Tidus, I want you to think of at least one nice thing about Yuna. And Yuna, you be thinking of something nice of Tidus too. Alright! Either one of you care to share?" There was a long silence. "Come on you two, there has to be at least one thing.."
Tidus and Yuna continued to stare at the ground. "Trust us, ya. This is going no where." Wakka said.
"Fine then. We can try again later. Now for the rules of camp. Everyone is to be in bed by 9 o'clock at night. Everyone will be helping out with chores. Mainly, cooking and cleaning. And each day you will be faced with challenges. Tomorrow will be a tester to see how well you all get along so far. And since Yuna and Tidus can't seem to find anything good to say about each other, they will be paired together in any two pairs needed that we might come across."
Tidus and Yuna glared at each other.
This sucks! They both thought at the same time.
"Time to start the challenges!" Stacy screamed, "Follow me!"
CHALLENGE #1: The Human Knot
"Here we are! Ok everyone, stand in a circle and grab someone's hand. Make sure it's a different person with each hand."
"I need someone other than Lulu." Yuna said.
"Anyone got a free hand? All I got is Wakka." Tidus said.
"Grab Yuna's hand Tidus." Stacy said as she pushed Yuna's hand into Tidus's. They stared at each other and exchanged dirty looks, "Now untie yourselves!" They just stared at the mess in the middle.
"Wakka, you step over Gippal's left arm." Tidus said.
"No! That will just make it worse!" Yuna said.
"Shut up you stupid slut!" Tidus screamed.
"At least the words coming out of my mouth make sense! You can barely tie your shoes, let alone get us out of this mess, asshole!" Yuna augured. Stacy just stared at the ground and shook her head.
"Got a better suggestion? I'd like to here it." Tidus replied.
"In fact I do. Paine! Slide under my right arm."
"Don't! That will only make it harder for Rikku. You have no clue how to get us out of this!"
"Be quiet Tidus! You wouldn't know how to get us out of this if the directions were right in front of you!"
"That's enough, you two. Obviously, this isn't working out. Let's move on and come back to this one later." The group unknotted and followed Stacy off to the next challenge.
CHALLENGE # 2: Stepping Stones
"In this challenge you are given five flat stones. All of you must get to the other end of the field with out touching the ground. The stones are the only thing that you are allowed to stand on. Touch the ground and you have to start all over again. You can have a few minutes to discuss your strategy."
The group entered a huddle. "It's simple," Tidus said, "All we have to do is have one person lay down the stones at the front of the line as they walk, everyone else can follow."
Yuna sighed, "Do you have something against this plan, Ms. Whore?" Tidus asked.
"Whatever, if you want to fail this challenge, far be it for me to stop you! You've just proved my point that you can't even do simple math," Yuna said.
"What do you mean by that?" Tidus asked.
"Nothing. You'll find out soon enough." Yuna said sweetly.
The group grabbed a stone and Tidus started the line, "Your next Rikku, pass me a stone and I'll set it down in front of me, you can take the one I get off of. After Rikku, Yuna can go and then Gippal, Paine, Lulu and lastly Wakka." Yuna just smiled and continued to her stone, she already knew what the out come of this would be.
Once Paine reached her stone, she looked at Lulu. "Tidus, were out of stones. What do we do?"
"Double up on the stones. Rikku, come join me on this stone. Gippal, you double up with Paine, and Wakka your with Lulu. Yuna would be to selfish to share a stone with anyone…"
Yuna still just smiled at herself. When Rikku stepped on Tidus's stone, he slipped and fell off. "Shit!"
At the same moment, Wakka fell off his stone as well as Paine. "I told you it wouldn't work! There's not enough stones and not enough circumference on the stone for your way to work, idiot."
"Let's move on…" Stacy said with a sigh.
CHALLENGE # 3: The Trust Game.
"This game is simple. It works off of your trust in each other. Someone will stand in the middle of the circle and fall in any direction. The others in the group must catch you and push you back at someone else in the circle. Yuna, you go first." Yuna stood in the middle of the circle, "Cross you arms and fall. Trust in your fellow classmates."
Yuna tilted towards Lulu with her eyes closed, hoping for the best. Lulu caught her and pushed Yuna at Rikku. Rikku than push her at Gippal. This is actually kind of fun! Yuna thought. Gippal then pushed her at Tidus. Tidus moved his out from under Yuna's body. "Oops! Sorry about that Yuna! I guess your just to heavy to lift! You need to lose some weight." Tidus said as he laughed.
"I'm gonna kill you!" Yuna screamed as she wiped the dirt off of her back. She felt a huge bump start to grow behind her head. Lulu had to hold Yuna back from lunging at Tidus.
CHALLENGE # 4: The Pole
"Here is a trampoline, a pole and a hula hop. The goal is simple, get the hula hop around the pole. Go!"
"I wanna try!" Rikku shouted. She ran to the trampoline and started to jump on it with the hula hop in her hands. She tossed a far as she could, but still failed. "Oh poopie!"
Each person took their turn and failed to achieve the goal. "This is pissing me off!" Gippal said.
"Ya. I'm with you brudda, that's impossible."
"Al right everyone. Head back to camp." Stacy said disappointed at today's outcome.
When they arrived back at camp Stacy divvied out chores, "Girls are cooking and the guys are cleaning!"
Yuna was still angry at Tidus for dropping her in the dirt, plus he had called her fat! As she went to make the sandwiches from the supplies in front of them she grab a fist full of dirt and sprinkled it over his jelly. "That'll show him." Yuna said.
"What was that, Yuna?" Rikku asked.
"Oh, nothing. Just talking to myself." The look on Tidus's face when he took his first bite out of his sandwich was priceless to Yuna. He gazed over at Yuna's happy expression and thought I can't let her win! With that he continued to eat his sandwich pretending nothing was wrong.
After the boys cleaned up the mess Stacy announced, "Al right you guys! Time for bed! And you better get all the sleep you can because tomorrow things start to change…tomorrow is The Maze."
