Oh and by the way, there's something bad about the hotel.


"Woah!" Tancred said.

Stepping out of the plane, Billy instantly threw up at Trey Anderson ("Hey! What gives Billy?"). Fidelio looked at the surroundings around. They have arrived.

You know that feeling when something bad is going on but you don't even know its going? Well that is the feeling Charlie and the others felt. They knew something was going on, but they were too occupied by the "Around The World" thingy and so they don't even care.

After a few minutes of walking they arrived.

"James Fort Light Hotel?" Charlie asked reading the sign.

"Great place to have...." Olivia read and stopped and blushed. Well, almost everyone laughed and blushed at the sign.

Why? Well, I don't really have to tell you. It's something you already know. Alright, alright. It's something suited at closed doors.

To make things worse, Trey Anderson and his 'gang' sang another song. And whats even worse? They began singing:

"Ohhh...Baby.

I'm gonna do something freaky to you..." Well, you know the song in the first Alvin and the Chipmunks movie.

Eventually, they were shushed by Dr. Bloor as they quickly filed in to get rooms.

"Oh man!" they heard someone say in the crowd.

"Whats up?" Charlie asked Olivia who had easy access to all the rumors going on in the front.

"Looks like the hotel is pretty much loaded. Some students will have to share rooms with other people."

Billy groaned. He didn't want to be roommates with someone he didn't know.

"Bone, Charlie!" Dr. Bloor called out "You will be assigned to room 782, 7th floor. Here are your keys."

Charlie struggled with his suitcase. He went to the elevator, pressed the button that signals to get him. Well, the elevator was stuffed. Charlie entered and a big red warning appeared.

"WARNING! THIS ELEVATOR CAN ONLY ACCOMMODATE 15 PEOPLE!" the voice said.

"But we're only nine!" a man behind Charlie shouted.

"Well uh...that...suitcase boy, get out!"

"You've got to be kidding me." Charlie muttered as he stepped out of the elevator.

"Think of it as exercise!" A fat man told him.

"And you have the nerve to tell me to exercise, who's the fat one here?!" Charlie thought to himself.

He climbed the first floor, he heard something that wasn't good.

"Oh, John! Ohhh...." A girl with a trace of thick accent said in the 6th floor.

"Sorry Elise, I think I spilled the massage oil!"

"Oh good! They were just having a massage. Not doing it, not doing it." Charlie thought again to himself.

Charlie could have said that or at least sworn to that before he entered his room.

As Charlie unlocked his hotel room, he saw a girl on the other bed.

His age, a little shorter than Charlie. Strawberry Blonde, Blue eyes, American. Charlie then made a mental note, never ever to be hypnotized by them.

"Oh. Are you my new roommate?" She asked advancing towards Charlie.

Charlie blushed bright red and nodded.

The girl smiled.

"My name is Evangeline Smith, but you may call me Eve for short."

"I'm Bone, Charlie Bone." he said. It wasn't as slick as how James Bond said it, but it could be fine.

"Charlie-" She was cut off cause she advanced even more towards him and started to try to kiss him.

"What gives-" he was also cut off. Eve had reached her.

"Stop it!" he shouted and pushed her off.

Evangeline, however, smiled and told him "Have you ever read the sign? It says 'Great place to have-"

"Okay! I get your point! But you know that I don't want to!"

"Yes, I hear that." she told me.

"What?!" Charlie shouted in disbelief.

"I have some sort of power. To hear people's thoughts. But only when wild enough with emotions. Anger. Pain. Love. Joy. Sadness. Envy," She took a deep breathe and sighed. "I'm sorry Charlie. Other people want me you see? So I have to find out your thougts first as a roommate."

"Another endowed..." Charlie whispered.

"Well, I'm certainly confused as you are. But I was able to reach your thoughts. What is an endowed? Or who is this Red King?"

"A long story..." he said and called his friends to visit him in his hotel room.

When all arrived, Tancred said "Cool! You have a sexy roommate. All I have is barfing sickly boy."

Emma nudged him.

"Yeah," Fidelio said "I guess this hotel serves its purpose, as it is on the sign. Charie have you done it earlier-"

Olivia nudged him.

"Guys, this is Evangeline Smith. She is an endowed like us. She is sort of a mind reader. But only when emotions are flowing."

.....

.....

.....

.....

"....COOL!" Fidelio said finally breaking the silence.

The room began partying.

"I hope you guys won't mind, but I have a sort of errand." Everyone got back to their seats and began listening intently.

"You see, I wish to return to my family in Savvanah, Georgia. But I have no money. Jobs aren't available for someone my age. Please, I need money."

Everyone was silent

"How do we get money?" Billy asked.

Olivia smirked. "How else, were in Las Vegas!"

"Oh right! Gambling...." Charlie muttered.

"So how much do you need?"

"Considering the house damage, about $20,000,000."

"What?!"

The Next Day...

Everyone meet up in the door of the nearest casino.

"Sorry I'm late!" Olivia said "I had to find money exchanger to change my money to dollars." She waved $101.50.

"Woah! That much!" Billy asked.

Earlier she was carrying about only 50 pounds.

"Okay, lets do this!" Charlie said and opened the Casino door.

"What should we try first?" Charlie asked wandering around.

"This!" Billy said pointing at a slot machine.

Later...

"Ahhh! Lost again, go to pawnshop! I have to exchange my boxers now!" Fidelio said and dashed in his skivvies.

But, a policeman grabbed him and went away.

"I lost! I have to go to the pawnshop and exchange my boxers too!" Billy said and ran, evading the police.

Shortly after he was caught.

"Ahh! Have to do this!" Charlie said and hit the slot machines with so much force, he broke it.

He was also led away.

Meanwhile...

"Okay!" Gabriel said "Where to?"

"That one!" Tancred pointed at a bunch of people gathered around a table.

"Okay...." Emma said tagging along.

"The objective is to get seven, if you get a double number, you lose." The man instructed them.

Emma tossed the two dice first.

A two and a five.

The crowd became nuts. "Wooh!" or maybe "Angel!" perhaps "Goddess!"

Gabriel came next. He got a one and a six.

"WOOH!"

Tancred came next.

... A four and a four.

"Boo!" or maybe "Viking!" or "Loser!" or "Cheat!"

"Maybe Tancred isn't exactly lucky." Gabriel whispered to Emma.

Later...

"So, where are the others?" Charlie asked Emma as they met up.

"I don't know." Emma answered with a worried glance around.

Tancred comforted her and put his hand on her shoulder. Emma beamed at him.

Just then, cheers erupted at the far end.

Charlie and the others rushed there.

"Roulette?" Charlie asked in astonishment.

And whats more?

"Lysander and Asa?" Billy asked in astonishment.

And what else?

"$16,777,216?" Emma asked in awe

"Well, there's nearly enough money, just one more and we could pay her."

"We go with black." Lysander told the woman.

Red. Black. Red. Black. Red. Black. Red. Black. Red. Black. Red........Red.

"NO!" Asa growled "MONEY!"

Just then, the others beat up Lysander ("Black your face! Man, that was a lot of money!")

"Oh look, Olivia's there!" Emma said pointing at a girl at the blackjack table.

You ever tried Blackjack? Its really hard. I just rely on luck. But Olivia was different.

Later...

"Thank you ma'am, please don't come again." told the cashier.

"Here Evangeline, $20,000,000. Enough to pay your debts, construction of house, fee of transportation, and will provide for your family."

"Thank you very much Olivia. Thank you everyone. Thank you Charlie for being my roommate."

Evangeline then hugged everyone, and kissed Charlie on the cheek.

Charlie and Olivia were bright red. Charlie, embarrassment. Olivia, anger.

"Now look here! Who won the money for you!?" But Evangeline was too far away.

"I had fun." Billy said and everyone agreed.

Olivia then kissed Charlie on the other cheek.

"Woah!" Fidelio said "Can you teach me how to be a chick magnet?"

"No." Charlie answered grinning.

Later..

"WHERE HAVE YOU BEEN?!" Cook asked furiously when they got back "I was sick worried about you."

"Sorry Cook." They apologized.

Cook sighed. "Dinner is lasagna with a piece of french bread."

Tancred's stomach growled.

"Oh well..." Charlie said.

Another adventure would come tomorrow.
