"AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH!"
"What the hell?" Rogue cried, sitting up. It was late at night and everyone had been sleeping when they'd been rudely awakened by the scream.
"What is it?" Chase asked urgently.
"A rattle snake!" Mangnetic cried, standing up and pulling her sheets back. Sure enough a rattle snake lay coiled on the ground hissing at her.
All the girls jumped to there feet, some of them screaming with fright.
"Okay, maybe if we just walk away it'll go away," Chase said.
All the girls began to back up, staring with wide eyes as the snake began to uncoil itself.
"What if it bites one of us?" Magnetic barely squeaked.
"It won't bite one of us," Chase replied, but she did sound a little worried.
They all stood there, staring, barely breathing as the snake watched them. Finally the snake began slithering away, proved that he was in no danger. All the girls let there breath out slowly. The incident with the snake reminded the girls that they had to be more careful out here in the desert, as there were more dangers out here than rattle snakes. The term 'Yellow Spotted Lizards' hadn't crossed their minds when they had been planning their escape, and now there were a little wary about continuing. But they had all gone too far now to turn back.
"So what now?" Magnetic cried, her eyes darting around everywhere. "What if one of us gets bitten by a yellow spotted lizard?"
Static shrugged. "Well then if one of us gets bitten by a yellow spotted lizard then there's one less person to feed."
"We'll just have to be more careful now," Chase said, ignoring Static.
But that didn't seem to reassure Magnetic at all.
Squid walked into the tent later that day after he'd taken his shower.
"Everything ready?" he asked.
The rest of the D tent boys, who were in the tent preparing to leave, nodded.
"Pretty much," Xray said, going back over the cans of food Magnet had stolen the night before.
The boys had filled all their canteens but, unlike the girls, they hadn't thought of stealing more to bring. The boys hadn't really thought of bringing sheets to sleep on, but some of the boys had brought along some of their precious belongings. For instance; Squid packed a rubber octopus, Zigzag brought a TV guide from March 22, 1998, and Armpit brought his old catcher's mitt.
The boys had planned to leave in the middle of the night and continue until early in the morning. They wanted to walk as much as possible each day to catch up to the girls (that wasn't Squid's idea), as most of the boys were dying to see the girls they'd been falling for.
"I hope we do catch up to them," Zero said. "What if we die before we see them again?" He got up and walked over to his crate. When he pulled his backpack out of it a small envelope fell to the floor. He picked it up and opened it.
"It's from Zippy!" he cried. The other boys looked up confused.
"Huh?" Armpit grunted.
Zero held up the letter in his hands so the boys could see what he was talking about. "She said that she was really sorry but she's leaving for good," he read slowly as his reading wasn't completely polished yet. "She said something about Chase but-but I can't read it very well-"
Squid shot up and grabbed the letter from Zero, nearly ripping it in two.
"Ooh!" Xray laughed. "So much for Chase bein' a bitch, eh?"
Squid flipped Xray off but couldn't help feeling a little sheepish. He read the letter but to his dismay it only mentioned Chase once:
Hey Zero,
I'm really sorry about all this but I have to leave. I'll miss you a lot-A LOT!!!! Tell Squid that Chase says hi; "Hi!!!!!" And tell everyone else that all of us miss them too (but i don't miss them more than i miss you!!!! hehe)! I really, REALLY wanna see you again!
Well, I have to go now...................bye
Zippy
P.S: I LOVE YOU I LOVE YOU I LOVE YOU!!!!!!!!!!!!
Squid put the letter down-there hadn't been enough about Chase for him to really care about it.
"Well at least now i know Zippy REALLY loves you Zero," he said with sarcasm.
The other boys laughed as they too looked at the letter before Zero could snatch it back.
"SHE LOVES YOU SHE LOVES YOU SHE LOVES YOU!!!!" Armpit laughed.
Zero grabbed the letter and put it in his pocket.
"Well at least she wrote me a letter, I don't see a letter from Rogue," Zero said.
Xray stopped laughing, and the rest of the boys continued packing while Zero read his letter over and over again.
That night the boys woke up at 12:00, though it took all the boys a long time to get out of bed and get ready to leave.
"All set?" Zigzag asked groggily as he stood beside the tent flap.
"No," Squid said, he was having second thoughts about leaving.
"Come on!" the other boys whined.
Squid sat there on his cot for a few minutes thinking.
"The longer you wait the further away Chase gets!" Xray preside.
But this didn't make Squid get up yet. Finally when all the boys began leaving the tent (Zero first), Squid got up and left. As they were walking he turned back and took one last glance at Camp Greenlake.
"What the hell?" Rogue cried, sitting up. It was late at night and everyone had been sleeping when they'd been rudely awakened by the scream.
"What is it?" Chase asked urgently.
"A rattle snake!" Mangnetic cried, standing up and pulling her sheets back. Sure enough a rattle snake lay coiled on the ground hissing at her.
