Trouble At Camp
Chapter Four: Camp Frustration!!!
"Now, before we set up tents there's something you need to learn…CAMP SONGS!!!!!!!!"
Raven's eyes popped out.
"You've got to be kidding me"
Frank ignored her.
"Now the first one goes like this:
HAVE YOU EVER SEEN
A PENGUIN COME TO TEA,
TAKE A LOOK AT ME!!!
A PENGUIN YOU WILL SEE!!!
PENGUINS,
ATTENTION!!!
PENGUINS BEGIN!!!
And you keep on singing that. After singing it once, you start flapping one arm. After singing it twice, you flap both arms.
After singing it three times, flap both arms and kick one leg up constantly. After singing it four times, you kick both legs and flap both arms. After singing it five times, go round in a circle whilst kicking both legs and flapping both arms.
Then you sing the song with the actions one more time except instead of saying "Penguins Begin" sing "Penguins Dismissed", okay? Isn't it great?" Frank clapped his hands together.
"You've got to be kidding me!" Raven repeated.
"Now, everyone, try it!" Frank shouted.
"Who on earth would be stupid enough to want to-" Raven stopped.
May-Lin and Beast Boy were happily singing and dancing.
"Of course" Raven muttered, unhappily.
Starfire soon joined in with May-Lin and Beast Boy.
Starfire persuaded Robin into participating.
Raven cursed under her breath. She turned to see Sapphire smirking.
"What are you so happy about?" Raven shot.
"Robin looks really stupid!" Sapphire said.
Sue walked into the hall and clapped her hands to get attention.
Everyone stopped, and turned.
"Will everyone come outside please?"
Everyone walked outside.
There were heaps of tent sets strewn all over the place. The groups were a few metres away from each other.
"Well" Sue began "See your tent sets? Get into groups of four, everyone in the group have to be the same gender. Once that is done, pick a tent set and start building. Well, better hurry now, if you want dinner!"
Cyborg, Sapphire, Robin and Beast Boy were the first group to assemble. They ran towards a tent that was in the shade of some trees.
Raven, Starfire and May-Lin grouped together, but they needed one more person. A girl they hadn't seen before (except May-Lin) came up.
"Hi! I'm Kate, can I be in your group?"
The girls immediately said yes. They wanted to get the tent closest to the male titans. And they knew every other girl would want to get that tent too.
They saw Suzanna's group rush for the tent next to the boys'.
Raven, Starfire, May-Lin and Kate ran and flew forward.
But they could see, Suzanna's group was gonna reach it.
Before Suzanna could reach it, Kate was sitting on the tent set, in the blink of an eye.
"Saved!" she said.
Suzanna's group grumbled and cursed.
Raven, Starfire and May-Lin looked at each other when they reached Kate.
"Wha-what the-what in the world just happened?" May-Lin stuttered.
Kate smiled sweetly.
"I don't know what your talking about"
The boys looked at each other with the same astonished faces as the girls.
They had seen the Great Race. How'd Kate get there all of a sudden, when she was the furthest behind?
They shrugged and started trying to figure out how to set up the tent.
The girls quickly got to work on their tent. It was finished in a few minutes.
The boys, however, didn't find it so easy.
While trying to hammer in the things that keep the tent standing, Sapphire had hit Beast Boy with a hammer, Robin had dropped the hammer on Beast Boy's foot and Beast Boy accidentally hammered his thumb in the ground.
"GAH!!!" Beast Boy yelled in frustration.
May-Lin, Starfire and Kate giggled.
"You girls make it seem so easy, how do you do it?" Robin enquired, feeling a headache coming on.
May-Lin yelled in his ear "TEAM WORK OF COURSE!!!"
"HAHAHA" a snooty voice laughed. Suzanna.
"Yeah right" Suzanna said.
"I don't know her, and I already HATE her" Kate stated.
Raven walked up to Suzanna.
"Look, bitch, I don't see your tent set up. I don't see you helping them, you lazy slut!!!"
Suzanna steamed.
She dug through her bag and took out a can of cola.
"This is for earlier. Nothing Personal" she said, as she shook it up and sprayed it over Raven.
Sapphire started to get up, but Raven signaled him to stop.
"I'm going to react to your motion, in this way. Nothing Personal"
Raven lifted up one of the tent poles from Suzanna's tent set and…
Hit her on the head.
Suzanna's unconscious body collapsed on the ground.
Raven walked back to her tent.
Everyone gaped at her.
"What?" Raven asked, irritated.
"Dude" Beast Boy said getting everyone's attention "Sure it was funny to see Raven whack a bitch unconscious BUT we need to put up our tent!"
The rest of the boys groaned. They couldn't do this.
"Here, we'll give you a hand!" Kate offered.
"That would be great, Kate" Cyborg said
"How do you know her name?" Raven enquired, suspiciously.
"Uhhh…internet?" Cyborg lied.
Raven kept staring at him.
"In….a chatroom?"
May-Lin and Beast Boy saw through his lies, but the others shrugged it off.
The girls started helping them with their tent.
$lalalalalalalalalalalala – later – lalalalalalalalalalalala$
After everyone had their tents set up, Holly summoned everyone into the hall. The chairs and tables that were once in the corner of the room were spread out, eight chairs per table.
"Now" Holly started, "Today and on the last day of camp, us camp guides will make the dinner and clean up. Now, sit at any random table. Each table will be called to be served their food. So you can't just go up and get something. You are not allowed seconds. Keep that in mind. Now, go ahead, sit somewhere!"
The titans' all sat down at the same table, of course.
"Okay. Now, are there any vegans or vegetarians here?" Sue asked.
Beast Boy and May-Lin put up their hands.
"Okay, you two are always served first. Every time there's a meal, just go up. You don't need to be asked. You two are the only ones that are allowed to have seconds. Now, you may proceed to collect your food"
Beast Boy and May-Lin happily got up and walked towards the counter. They were served tofu, a slice of bread, a salad and french fries.
"Aww…man…" Cyborg muttered, "I can't believe it! Being a vegan lets you get served first! No fair!"
"Now, this table may collect dinner first" Sue signaled at the titans' table.
They were served: a veal steak, french fries and some vanilla and strawberry ice cream.
When they returned to their table, Frank placed a jug of green cordial on the table and eight cups.
"Cordial. My favourite" Raven muttered sarcastically.
The titans and Kate all wolfed down their food.
Raven just picked at her food, not really eating anything.
$lalalalalalalalalalalala – later – lalalalalalalalalalalala$
After showers, Frank called everyone to the hall.
"Tonight's activity is telling spooky stories…so…who wants to go first?"
"Ooohhh no!" Raven said.
$lalalalalalalalalalalala –author's note– lalalalalalalalalalalala$
