"Cattle Drive"


It was nighttime the second day of camp everyone was having a campfire Robert was telling everyone a camp story about dinosaurs attack.

"It was nighttime it was dark, cold, and wet then inside the kitchen a raptor found us and prepared for a feast." Darius said.

Out of nowhere Adria had her phone taking pictures of the campfire "Oh sorry." Brooklyn apologized.

Darius got annoyed.

"Hey, should we get Yasmina over here?" Sammy asked.

Yaz was drawing something.

"Maybe she wants to be left alone?" Brooklyn guessed.

"I don't understand." Sammy said.

"It's when somebody wants to be by themselves." Kenji said.

Sammy laughed "Oh Kenji you're such a joker all she needs is someone to help push her out of her shell." Sammy said.

Rain pouring down "Story time inside?" Darius asked.

"Yep." Everyone said together.

"I got a deck of cards if anyone wants to play." Brooklyn said.

"I'm in." Noah said.

"I'm going to bed." Xi said.

Yaz was sitting alone on the couch with a book "My pages got wet." Yaz said, trying to dry them.

Sammy came out of nowhere "You need a friend!" she said.

"What?" Yaz asked.

"I'm such a ding-dong you're alone and when I feel alone I sure could use a friend and you sure could and so I thought "Wait Yasmina just needs someone to make the first friendship" so here I am!" Sammy said.

"I lost you at 'ding-dong'". Yaz said.

"Is that a scrapbook? I love scrapbooking we should make one together pull you out of your shell." Sammy said.

"I'm pretty happy in my shell." Yaz said.

"No one happy in their shell it stops people from getting to know you!" Sammy said.

Bingo!" Yaz said.

She walked away "I know you're just shy!" Sammy said.

Yaz was holding her scrapbook tight to her chest arms cross around it "Can't hear you my shell!" she said.

"I'm not giving up!" Sammy said.

Yaz smiled a bit.

The morning everyone were in a valley there were Brachiosaurus, Stegosaurus, and Sinoceratops being herded by park personal "Alright everyone today we get go on a cattle drive but with dinosaurs a dino drive." Dave said.

"Let's roll!" Darius said with excitement.

"I'm with you!" Brooklyn said.

Yaz got into her gyrosphere she buckle in "This is going to be so sick." she said.

"Right?" Sammy asked.

"And now we're in a shell together a shell for two." Sammy said, buckling in.

"Yeah." Yaz said, without as much joy.

Everyone got off to a good start until a storm was coming a Sinoceratops was breaking off from the herd so Darius and Brooklyn went after it being followed by Yaz and Sammy. Kenji and Ben went after them much to Ben's shock that Kenji being a massive jerk he is tried to bump the dinosaur they got lost. Robert and Adria got stuck in a middle hole. Yaz, Sammy, Ben, and Kenji found them and rescued them as their councilors found them.

At night everyone returned to the camp. It was raining Sammy was on the balcony Yasmina walk to her side holding her scrapbook "Hey." she said.

Sammy didn't answer "Look if everyone had just listen to you. If I have listen to you none of this would have happened." Yaz said.

Sammy smiles "I'm not so great at trusting people. My favorite color is black, my favorite food is pizza." she said.

Yaz gives Sammy her scrapbook "This is what I was doing earlier." Yaz said.

Sammy grabbed it and opened it showing drawings of dinosaurs. "I started drawing to kill time during track meets. I'm not really that good so you probably won't like them." Yaz said.

"I don't like them." Sammy said.

Yaz thought she was right.

"I love 'em! I knew we were going to be best friends!" Sammy hugs Yasmina.

"I'm not really much of a hugger." Yasmina said.

"You are now!" Sammy said.

Yasmina give a small hug.

The two watched the rain fall "You don't give up at all don't you?" she asked.

"Never for friendship!" Sammy said.

Yasmina smiles knowing she made her first friend.
