Waves POV
3:00 am my orange watch flashed and I got up. I glanced around to find everyone sleeping and took out my orange jump suite. I was used to getting orange stuff, orange teddy bear, orange stuffed rabbit, orange blankets, orange watch, etc. My parents always gave me orange stuff and I got so used to it that I seemed to panic if something orange was missing in my line of view. My friends at school always get creeped out when I panic. I go to my bad and take out some fox ears that my sister gave me for my birthday last year and put a wet cloth under them then put them on. I have always dreamed of being a fox demon so my sister bought them. I finished getting dressed at precisely 3:05 am and left the cabin, went to the eating-place and was lucky to find someone there this early. I asked if I could have something to eat, at the same time as I put on this nice, polite, kind face and the guy agreed. Once again Girl Power rules. I ate my apple and cereal quickly then drank my orange juice and waited on the roof of the shed where the shovels were kept. Why? I was bored and wanted to look at the stars that were still in the sky.
"GIRLIE! WHAT ARE YOU DOING UP THERE!" I fell off and landed swiftly on my feet as I looked at Mr. Sir.
"Waiting for you to open the lock so I can get my shovel and start digging. I've been waiting since 3:30 am." I said brushing my jumpsuits though it wasn't necessary since I landed on my feet. I turned around to see my cabin buddies and smiled at them kindly then grabbed a shovel and walked away. I closed my eyes once I had found the place I assumed my cabin was going to be digging in, I closed my eyes and let the peacefulness take me then smiled and started to draw a five foot circle before I started to dig. I didn't notice Mr. Sir and D-tent coming as I dug. Mr. Sir didn't say anything due to confusion of how I knew where to dig; it's my own secret that I never tell anyone. I just close my eyes and let my mind wander by doing that I am always able to tell where things should be or where I should be. That's how I found my cot last night and that's how I found all my classes on the first day of school. Actually, that's how I found lots of stuff but enough about my creepy ability that everyone has found strange but never bothers to ask.
"How did you know where to dig before Mr. Sir even told you?" X-ray asked and I blinked. Well, there is a first time for everything… They already think I am insane so why not give them more reason to think so?
"The evil chickens told me. They are cornering me every day, but they are invisible and only I can see them. They forced me to eat there evil red yolk eggs which remarkably tasted like vegetable soup. I didn't want to eat it but the made me." I said looking down and shaking pretending to cry.
"I didn't understand what she was talking about but shame X-ray you should never make a girl cry." I heard Squid say and along came a 'tsk tsk' from Armpit.
'All better now!" I said cheerfully and stated digging again, I was a little over half way done when it was lunchtime. I grabbed an apple, sandwich, crackers, and a drink then went to sit in the edge of my hole as I started to eat my apple. Savoring it in my mouth knowing full well that besides the crackers, the apple was the only decent thing to eat in Camp Boresville.
"Are you going to eat your sandwich?" I heard as a shadow came over me. I opened the wrapper of the sandwich and stared at it then held it up.
"Nope. Here you go." I said and finished my apple then started nibbling on my crackers. I didn't even bother to know who I gave the sandwich to but whoever it was took it gratefully and sat down next to me. It ended up being Squid; I smiled at him and went back to nibbling.
"So you do eat something besides apples. I was starting to wonder." Squid said after swallowing a mouthful of my sandwich.
"I'm known back at home for loving apples, foxes, cats, trees, Hopper, don't ask who he is cause he is just a figment of my imagination, and chocolate. However, I'm not allowed to eat it due to the fact that I get really hyperactive start talking about nonsense and have a nonstop laughing fit. It's safe to say that all of my friends and random people passing by thought I was insane." I said as I finished my cracker and jumped into the hole. I grabbed my shovel and started thrusting it into the ground but not bothering to dig just yet.
"What are you doing?" Squid asked confused as he got up.
"I am softening the ground. It makes digging easier if the ground isn't so hard." I said as I continued to attack the innocent ground. I feel so sorry for the ground. (Insert unshed tears) If I had been watching anybody else doing this my response would have been.
'Now what has the ground ever done to you to receive such brutal punishment?' Whoops. I think I said that aloud.
/Gee what makes you think that/ A voice said in my head.
"Who are you?" I asked.
/I'm your inner self. /
"Wow I have an inner self?'
/Yup. Is that a problem/
"Nope. Are you like a conscious? I doubt it or you would have helped me with the problem I was having before I ended up here." I said and have yet to realize everyone staring at me talking to myself.
/Um, I was sleeping. Sorry about that. / If I could see her/him then I think he/she was blushing in embarrassment.
"You were sleeping? I could really have used your help in the court room before I was sentenced to come here until 11 days after my b-day!" I shouted and even Mom was staring at me with confused eyes. He had come to fill our canteens so I moved behind Zero to wait my turn to get my canteen actually they are water bottles but I like to call them canteens.
/I said I was sorry. / The voice sounded desperate. Ok I need to stop calling it the voice so now I shall call it Hushy. Due to the fact that I don't know its gender and Hushy is suitable for girls and boys.
"Sorry isn't going to get me out of Boresville." I said smiling at Mom who was filling my canteen.
"Leslie who are you talking to?" Mom asked and I smiled.
"My new friend, Hushy. I wonder why Yoshi, Hopper, Angel, Princess, Bucky, and Bob stopped talking to me. Maybe they have been busy. Is it possible for figments of my imagination to be busy?" I asked and Mom blinked.
"Um, I don't know. That subject has never come up before…" Poor Mom looked absolutely confused. I could just see his thoughts again
'Ok… So she has imaginary friends that don't talk to her anymore. But that only proves that she still has an innocent soul and doesn't belong here…' I could just laugh at his thoughts. Hahaha. Told you I could just laugh at them. I returned to my hole and jumped down. Oh, I should also mention that my hole is in between X-rays and Squids so they were the only ones that heard me.
"I wonder if he still respects me?" I said and that was what they heard. They snickered softly at my comment as I continued to dig. 5 minutes later I had finished my hole was heading back to D-tent. I was the first one to finish so I went to the wreck place and asked kindly for an apple then went to D-tent. I got my bag and took out my swimsuit. I brought it because the judge had said I would be the only girl here and I didn't want anyone to see me butt naked and thought ahead bringing my one-piece suit. It was orange of course. It was the only color my parents would ever buy me, why? I don't know, I think the color that suits me best is light blue or red. I put it on and took my 3 min. shower, when I finished I put on my jump suit and walked out with my hair soaking wet. I walked out of the stall and headed to D-tent. Unfortunately, guess who I ran into.

Have you guessed yet? It was the bastard from B-tent that I called a girl. I tried to ignore him and attempted to walk past him only he grabbed my arm as I tried to go by.
"You insulted me yesterday. But I may be able to forgive you since you look so pretty with your hair all wet." He said smugly and I forced my hand away and started to run only to be tackled to the ground by him.
(Note to self: Don't ever leave shower with hair soaking wet.)
I would have screamed but he had his hand over my mouth. I was kinda relieved that I wore a one-piece under the swimsuit, I didn't bother taking it off when I put on the jump suit, so he was going to have trouble making love to me which I was grateful. I closed my eyes and started to cry silently as I struggled to free myself.
Fk306: Cliffie! Who put that cliffie there?
Bucky: Don't look at me. Look at your version of a perfect guy.
Hopper: Heh, yup I put it there. Hope your not upset. (Smiles)
Fk306: (sighs with dreamy look in eyes) no that's fine…
Bucky: Honestly, what does he have that I don't?
Fk306: For starters, he isn't a black and white cat.
Bucky: He has fox ears and a fox tail!
Fk306: He still looks more human than you do.
Hopper: Anyway, time for reviews.
Fk306: Oh yeah, I can't believe I got more than 3 reviews. SpotlessLadybug Congrats you're my first reviewer. Looks like we both think alike since those are my favorite kind of stories too.
Bucky: Lauraisace your are absolutely right. You just have to love the randomness in a story.
Hopper: Joker is Poker with a J Leslie doesn't like to fight those that she thought were her friends she just tries to go on with life no matter how upset she is. Fk306 resembles Leslie a bit only less random. She does come up with stories about birds being evil though also bananas but that might be cause she vomits every time she tries to eat a banana…
Fk306: Hey who said you could tell them that!
Bucky: Did you notice how she didn't deny that that happens?
Hopper: Yup.
Fk306: Grr. Anyway, ArwenEvenstar83 I'm glad you like this one and Shadow Killer. I'm sorry I haven't updated it in a while but I am having writers block.
Everyone: Please R and R.
