I couldn't tell you why she felt that way,
She felt it everyday.
And I couldn't help her,
I just watched her make the same mistakes again.

The next day was hotter than the day before. The water truck came and Allison wasn't barley done yet. She threw her shovel to the ground and took a drink from her canteen. It tasted like old hot water and dirt mixed together. But it would have to do.

"Cat," X-Ray said sitting down next to her. "I am sorry."

"It's ok," she said not looking at him.

"You remind me so much of my sister, I protected her, I fell like I should protect you," he said.

"You don't have to," Allison said still not looking at him.

"I want to, you're like a sister to me Cat," he said getting up and walking away.

"Hey," she yelled and waited until X-Ray turned around. "Thanks…"

What's wrong, what's wrong now?
Too many, too many problems.
Don't know where she belongs, where she belongs.
She wants to go home, but nobody's home.
It's where she lies, broken inside.
With no place to go, no place to go to dry her eyes.
Broken inside.

Allison was once against the last one left digging her hole.

"Hey Cat, need help," Caveman said jumping down in her hole.

"Yea just a little," she said and they both began digging again. They finished and once again she needed getting out of the hole that was now bigger than her.

"Second hole is the hardest," he said.

"I thought the first hole was the hardest," Allison asked.

"Well to me, they are all the hardest," he laughed. They walked to the tent and Allison noticed Brian out of the corner of her eye.

"You coming," Caveman asked.

"O I will, go without me," she said. "Stanley?"

"Yea," he asked walking back to her.

"Thanks," she said giving him a kiss on his cheek and he walked over smiling to the D-Tent.

"Did you kill Jason so you could fuck every guy here," Brian asked walking over to her.

"Are you stupid Brian," she asked walking away from him.

"Or did you already fuck them all," he called after all. Allison stopped dead in her tracks and walked over to him.

"I had a enough of your shit and all the other boys shit," she said, and she did something she thought she would never do. She punched Brian right in the mouth. He tried to come after her and hit her in the face. She felt the blood dripping down her cheek. The boys from D-Tent came out along with everyone else and surrounded her.

"Should I stop them?" Mr., Sir asked.

"No, let her do this," the Warden said as they stood on the steps of the office building.

"Jason hit me and I won't let you do it either," she yelled and punched him in the stomach and then right hooked him in the face. He fell over grabbing his eye and then took off.

"Way to go Cat," She heard Squid say, she turned around to see her tent mates behind her. She looked at them and then walked into her tent.

"You know what Cat," Squid said pulling out a black bandanna and walking over to her. He put it on her head and then stood back to look at her.

"That makes you look tough, along with that cut on your eye brow," he said.

"You sure did beat the shit out of him" Armpit said walking over to her and patting her on the back.

"Well you know he deserved it," she said sitting down on her cot.

"Maybe the boys won't mess with you anymore," X-Ray said.

"I can only wish," Allison laughed. "Hey guys why didn't you help me?"

"We knew you could handle it," X-ray said.

Open your eyes and look outside, find the reasons why.
You've been rejected, and now you can't find what you left behind.
Be strong, be strong now.

Allison sat down outside her tent, she had just finished her eighth hole, and they were not getting any better. Eight days at Camp Green Lake, and it felt more like eight months. How would she make it for a year? A year for a crime she didn't commit, anyone would have done it if they were being attacked. Right?

Allison sat in the rec room alone. She didn't know where her tent mates were. She watched Brian at the pool table and occasionally he would glance at her. He still had a nasty bruise on his cheek that seemed to get wore than better. Then he finally came over to her.

"Can't fight your own battles Allison?" Brian asked. She looked up at him not sure what he was talking about.

"What?"

"Your friends from D-Tent ganged up on me last night. Four against one Allison, how fair is that?" he yelled.

"I didn't tell them to do anything," she yelled back. She wasn't really mad at him. More mad at the boys from her tent. She stormed out of the rec room and to her tent where she heard laughter coming from. She through the flap open and walked in.

"Who beat up Brian?" she yelled. "Who beat him up?"

"Cat calm down," X-Ray said.

"No, who beat him up?"

"I did, along with Squid, Magnet and Armpit, he won't be messing with you anymore," he said.

"I never told you to do that," Allison yelled. "I don't need your help!"
"Fine you won't get our help," X-Ray yelled he threw his playing cards and walked out of the tent along with Squid. What did she do now? Allison thought sitting down on her bed. She looked at Caveman who gave a weak smile and then walked out along with the rest of D-tent. Now no one was on her side.

Her feelings she hides.
Her dreams she can't find.
She's losing her mind.
She's fallen behind.
She can't find her place.
She's losing her faith.
She's fallen from grace.
She's all over the place.
