Author's Note- I thought getting the next chapter out fast may encourage people to read. If you do read it, please do put down a review, if only to let me know that you did indeed read it. This chapter was a little more fun for me to write since it builds up to my favorite part. If you haven't read the Camp Green Lake Survival Guide I would recommend reading it. Enjoy chapter two!

Disclaimer- I do not own Holes of course, Mr. Sachar does. I take no credit for all of his beautiful work and fascinating characters. I do however take credit for the characters in here, which you will notice, are not from the book at all.


Lazily, Wires pushed a lock of hair out of his eyes again. He had draped himself over one of the only chairs in the Wreck Room. Zigzag

was on the floor in front of him, staring at the black screen with no expression what so ever. Wires on the other hand was watching

Zigzag watch the TV, it was probably more entertaining that what was actually 'on'. Suddenly Zig's face gave way to an expression,

disappointment. It was then that he turned his head to look at Wires.

"Hey, you think you can fix it again? The picture died." It was slightly more of an order than a request but the younger boy obeyed all the same.

"Yeah, sure." Wires crossed to the back of the TV and crouched down. He pulled off the black backing and made like he was actually

rewiring and reconnecting things. It was all a show, he wasn't stupid. There was a hole in the screen; there was no way he could fix that.

With a nod he re-attached the backing and his head popped up over the top of the set "Is it workin'?"

"Nope"

"Lemme try one more thing" Raising his fist he brought it down hard on top of the TV set.

"Perfect" Zig said. He grinned for a moment before returning to his TV watching state.

Wires chuckled softly as he took his seat again. The other D-tent boys were making their way into the room and sitting down on the

couches and available chairs when Mom walked into the room. "D-tent, get off your lazy arses and come meet your new tent mate"

A series of groans were emitted from the boys before they all stood and walked out. But as the rest of them headed towards where Mom

and the new boy stood, Wires made his way back towards the tent. He wanted nothing to do with any new guy. But the poor thing did

not get what he wanted. A minute or so later the boys had dragged the new guy into the tent and showed him his cot, Mom followed. He

shook his head as he looked at Wires.

This guy is worse than Barney. Well, you can go take that 'Let's all be friends' crap and stick it up. Wires' thought was cut short.

"And this inanimate thing over here is Brian," Pendanski said with grin, still looking at the boy. Wires glanced over at the new boy and

only one thought went through his head, His hair looks like dirt. And it was true; the boy's hair was that reddish-brownish color of

freshly exposed dirt.

"Brian, why don't you say hello to Jay? Even Zero did." Mom was still smiling but it quickly faded as the boy did nothing"Fine, I expect you to show him

around." He left.

Jay watched Wires for a moment for any reaction what so ever to his order before finally sitting down on his cot. Feeling quite awkward,

the other boys filed out of the tent and headed off towards the Wreck Room. No one really understood how Mom's head worked, that

was the stupidest idea he had ever had. Put Wires in charge of the new kid, ha! Jay would be safer with a rabid cougar.

"Hey…do you think you could show me where to get some water…" Jay's voice trailed off, his mentor didn't seem to hear him. "Excuse

me? Er..could you show me where to get some water?" Rather annoyed he stood up and walked over to Wires' cot before tapping him

on the shoulder "Brian, I need to know where the water is." Big mistake number one. Perhaps the rabid cougar would of taken that better.

Which brings you up to date with what is going on. The tent door slammed in his face.
