"The Mosquito Cabin!" She wailed. "They're all dead!"
"Well this morning just keeps getting better and better." Wally muttered.
"We're alright!" The leader of the cabin in question came running in a few seconds later with various members of the Cabin running behind her. "Sorry, we were sleeping in the Cabin and I forgot to set the alarm and then suddenly all I heard was someone screaming about us being dead!" Sam walked over to them.
The first counselor was red in the face with embarrassment. "I saw all of you in the Cabin and I know that you're never late and I guess that...with everything that's happened...I just...you know..." She shrugged.
"No, we don't know!" Sam practically yelled. "What the hell were you thinking? That little outburst could have caused a panic here and someone might have gotten hurt!" Sam was in her face now.
"I-I'm sorry..." The poor girl whispered as her eyes filled with tears.
"Oh, you're sorry? That's just great." Sam addressed the campers. "Isn't that just great? She could have gotten someone killed and she's sorry?"
Artemis had had enough.
"It's a little late to worry about safety, don't you think? People have died here and you don't seem to care! My friend is missing! People are already hurt!" Artemis stood tall and Wally couldn't help but proud of her. Sam advanced on her as the other counselors watched silently.
"Those were all accidents! Nothing more! As for your friend, she's probably ditching her Cabin to do something against the rules!" Sam was screaming and the rest of the Young Justice stood. Suddenly, a large hand descended on his shoulder.
"Back off." Connor said shortly. His icy blue eyes were dangerous, and Sam calmed himself with effort. "My friend is missing. Your camp is unsafe. Do what you should have done days ago."
"What are you talking about?" Sam spat.
"You know what we mean. Though no one else has come forward before, someone must speak." Kaldur stepped forward. "You must somehow get the authorities here before the situation gets any worse. And believe me, if things don't change there will be more deaths."
"You don't that. I don't know that. No one knows that." Sam said, his voice rising again.
"We know our friend is missing. And she would never sneak away." Zatanna crossed her arms. It was hard to resist using her magic to force Sam to tell her what he was hiding. He was definitely hiding something. Raquel put a hand up.
"Is it just me, or are we the only ones concerned here?" She addressed the other campers. There was a ripple of whispers as the campers shifted in their seats. "How can nobody be concerned here? This is ridiculous! We should have all left that first night!"
"No! Now go sit down at your tables. All of you are suspended from activities for the day and will spend the rest of the day in your cabins!" Sam walked back to his table. "What are you looking at?" He snarled at a few campers.
"Somebody's in a bad mood." Dick said quietly to Wally. He had remained silent during the whole thing and observed Sam's body language. "No wonder, too."
"What do you mean?" Wally asked as he watched Artemis sit back down. There was a painfully empty spot next to her.
"He's scared. Of what, I don't know. Maybe the murderer, maybe us. Either way, we need to do something." Dick sat down with Wally.
"I couldn't agree more. We've already broken the rules enough. What's one more time?" Wally whispered dryly.
Enjoy. Review.
