Sorry for the late update. This chapter is all about letters between the sons and parents.
The Future Trap
Chapter 5
James and Keely's Letters Three and Five Days After Drop-off:
Dear Mom,
Camp is a blast. I am having so much fun. I am in the Mars Cabin. We already have cabin rivalry; our cabin (mainly me and my two bunk mates) are going to sabotage the other cabin. Did I say "sabotage?" I meant to say "help" the our rivals out, because you have taught me to be bigger person. But you did say I definitely have my Aunt Pim in me. I got to go. Love and miss ya.
Love,
James

Dear James,
I was hoping to hear from you sooner than day four of camp, but hey, at least you wrote me. I know it's camp and you have rivals, but please no "HELPING" (COUGH - "SABOTAGING" -COUGH) your rivals. You may take after your Aunt Pim some, but you are more like your dad. I promise you, when you get home, I will tell you all about your dad and more. Please have fun, be safe, and don't get in trouble. I love you sooo much and the house isn't the same without you.
Love,
Mom

Alex and Phil's Letters 14 and 17 days After Drop-off:
Hey Dad,
So, camp is a blast. You are now reading the letter of the champion at the Gravitation Rings; the former champion lasted 25 seconds and I doubled that time. I was really dizzy afterwards and I knocked the former champion down. When I try to help him up, he pulled me down. The counselor made us give each other an apology. We are now major rivals for two reasons. One, we disagree on everything, and we so look alike. It's so weird. Anyways, I gotta go we are sabotaging their cabin.
Peace,
Alex

Dear Alex (or should I say "Mr. Champion"),
Do me a favor and please write more. Yes, we are two grown and growing men, but it would be nice to hear from you more. As for your "rivals" ... please behave yourself. You have your Aunt Pim in you — which is scary. You don't need to unleash it on innocent people. As for the look alike, he could be your doppelganger. Have fun and remember: no harmful pranks!
Miss my little man,
Dad

Alex's POV:
"Kyle and Dave, get over here, Mates, It's time to put Operation Cabin Mess To Mars in effect. Here is the plan: whip cream on every other bed, honey on all beds, syrup on the floors, feathers on the fan, and rig to drop water balloons on James. This is going to be epic!
Three Hours Later:
Dear Dad.
We got put into the isolation cabin, both me and my dopplerganger. The cabin sabotage got the camp counselors instead of him. Oops. #6weekswithrival #yippee
