The next day, the boys went down to the pool. Oliver Queen stood against the wall by the pool, watching the others as he was hiding arm floats behind his back.
"Come on in, Ollie-boy!" Hal says.
"The water's fine!" Garth says.
Oliver Queen still stood there. He didn't want his friends to see what he was hiding.
"You're hiding something, aren't you?" Luke says.
"Come on, Ollie, show us…" Barry says.
Oliver Queen sighed and showed them the arm floats as Shane stifled a giggle.
"Oh, okay." Garth says.
"Oliver needs floaties to swim! Oliver needs floaties to swim!" Hal says as Shane soon starts laughing. Zee sees this as she had come to join the trip today.
"This is rich! Oliver Queen can't swim!" Hal says.
Oliver Queen's cheeks were an interesting shade of magenta as Garth goes up to reassure him.
"Oliver, it's nothing to be ashamed of." Garth says. "It's okay."
He sobbed as Garth and Luke held him.
"Hal, that wasn't funny!" Zee says.
Hal laughed as it was trending. Barry, Luke, and Garth didn't find it funny. Oliver Queen sobbed harder as Zee, Luke, Barry, and Garth took him inside.
Diana saw Shane was laughing, too. She gave him a stern look, which made him stop immediately.
Meanwhile, Lisa and June were hanging out and working on some of June's gadgets.
"So, what are your plans for the summer?" June asked Lisa.
Lisa looked unsure. Aside from attending Luke's graduation and half-birthday party, she didn't have much planned.
"What about you, June?" Lisa asked her. "What are your summer plans?"
"A big ghost hunting tour with my family, then I'll be celebrating my 16th birthday in July." she says. "I'm excited!"
Back at the hotel, Oliver Queen cheered up a bit after he, Zee, Luke, Garth, and Barry all got shirts with their names airbrushed on them.
They walk around, taking in the sights on Pleasure Pier, a local amusement attraction.
"So, the school says that for our senior pictures, we don't have to dress formally. I was thinking we could wear these shirts for our pictures." Luke says to Garth, Barry, and Oliver Queen.
Hal and Shane were spying, jealous and also regretful for their actions.
Lucy plans for Luke's half birthday. His graduation party was going to be a joint affair with his teammates, so there was no need for her to plan that.
Kat and Ana were giggling and eating birthday snacks.
"Two birthdays for two different worlds!" They cheer as they stuff their faces.
Mario was walking around as he saw Angry Luigi and Bill eating on a bench.
"Bowser's at it! Go get him!" Bill says.
"Let's-a go!" Mario said and ran up.
"Let's save the day!" Savannah says.
With Luke, he looked over who had been eliminated from the no nut challenge so far. He himself wasn't part of it as he was the one who initiated it.
No one lost yet. Luke looked surprised as usually, one of the guys would have cracked by now.
Meanwhile, Savannah was relaxing. Her birthday was at the end of the month and she was going to graduate from her school in Greendale.
"Honestly, I wish Brandy could be happy." she says. "He deserves to be happy. Everyone claims Luke and his friends have miserable lives and forgets about Brandy. That's where they're wrong. Brandy's been through a lot more than they have. But nobody knows that but me. I have to show everyone how he's been through more than Luke and his friends have."
She started to think about how she could do that.
With Luke, he and the others were planning their graduation party. Oliver Queen was using Hal as a footstool while Barry used Shane.
Shane looked down. He regretted laughing at Oliver Queen.
"Oliver, please, I'm sorry!" Hal cried out as Oliver Queen had his bare feet stretched across his back.
"And why should I forgive you? You thought me being a bad swimmer was funny." Oliver Queen says.
Atticus came in and facepalmed. He was in disbelief.
"Let's bail!" Darla says.
"You guys need to grow up." Patch says.
"Yeah, this is why Melony left you out of the spotlight. Every time you get too high you fight." Atticus says. "Learn to get along and maybe you guys will actually have a spotlight again."
Luke glared, but knew he was right.
"This is supposed to be your senior trip and it's supposed to be fun. It looks like none of you are having any fun right now because you're all getting into petty arguments that won't matter in five months, five years, or five days." Atticus says. "You boys are friends, not foes. It's okay to get into arguments, but don't be doing it so much. I know Oliver Queen isn't a good swimmer, but it wasn't nice to tease him about it."
"Are you trying to rub it in my face, Atticus?" Oliver Queen asked, looking at him.
"We all have our weaknesses. He used to have a fear of lightning." Patch says as Atticus blushed, embarrassed. "Brandy can't swim either."
"Hal still wets the bed from time to time." Barry says.
"Okay, you just did that on purpose." Atticus says. "Knock it off."
He and Patch leave the room as Hal's face turns light pink with slight embarrassment.
"Dude! You still do that?" Oliver Queen asked, wide-eyed. "I thought you fought that and conquered it when you were 10?"
"Stop fighting." Patch says.
"I'm asking him a question! We're done with the fighting." Oliver Queen says.
"Drop the bedwetting subject now." Atticus says, cracking his knuckles.
"Leave." Hal says to the group. "I need to be alone."
They all leave as Luke uses lightning. Atticus blinked and shook as they laughed. Atticus ran off.
"Not nice." Patch says to Luke and walks off.
Once everyone was gone, Hal sobbed in the bathroom.
With Lucy, she wrote half-birthday notes for Luke. She wondered if he was having fun on his trip.
"So, what is the plan for his half-birthday?" Luan asked her.
"Water slides, tarot cards, and snow cones." Lucy says.
MeanwhileThe guys were teasing Atticus as Luke was using his powers scaring Atticus. Well, except for Oliver Queen. He felt bad for Hal and just wanted to make him feel better.
"Stop it!" Atticus says. "We seriously need to stop teasing each other."
He runs away, not crying.
"Cherry used to tease him, but it was never this bad." Patch says and follows him.
Meanwhile, Angry Luigi and Bill came back from saving Peach again.
Angry Luigi fell down, red eyed. Savannah felt bad for him.
"Poor Angry Luigi…" She says. She notices Atticus storming around and feels confused.
"Isn't that Atticus?" She asked. "He'd never storm around like that."
"Atticus, broken? Well, no hero, no life." Angry Luigi sighed, getting even more depressed.
"Atticus, what happened?" Savannah asked.
"I can't even with them…" Atticus says.
Angry Luigi looked down. "Well, suicide is the total answer. Without Atticus. what's the point?" Angry Luigi says. Savannah tossed the knife out the window.
"Luke broke Atticus. Now that's a problem." Bill says.
"So they're gonna have to be told off. But not by you." Savannah told Bill.
"They're just going to resume their old ways." Atticus says as Patch feels bad.
"I propose drowning." Angry Luigi says.
"I'm telling them like it is. Senior trip or not, they're in big trouble." Savannah says as she leaves.
She came back, looking beaten and shaken up. "They didn't listen" Savannah says and fell over.
"We should get Cherry or Cynthia. Someone with sass that won't hold back." Bill says.
"Cherry is usually easy to tease." Atticus sighed.
"Adventure Kids it is." Bill says.
The Adventure Kids came to see the boys.
"I want an autograph" Ann asked, completely forgetting the main reason they were called.
"Not now!" Cynthia says, walking up. "You guys are going too far."
"Yeah!" Kali says, holding Krypto. "We know the Justice League personally."
The boys turned pale with fear. Losing their powers would be the worst thing to happen to them, among other things.
"Teasing isn't fun. It's hurtful for the people involved. It needs to stop." Kali says.
"Can I get an autograph and marry Luke?" Ann asked as Zee grabbed Ann.
"You little brat!" Zee screamed as Oliver Queen was forced to hold her back.
"If you hit on him again, I will…" Zee screamed, but Oliver Queen calmed her down before she said anything she'd regret later.
"Let's go now." Kali says.
"I'm going to see Oliver Fox." Cynthia says and leaves.
The boys decided to go see Hal. Hal already knew how it felt to be teased. The boys politely asked Atticus and his friends to stay out of this.
"We're sorry, Hal." The guys say.
"It's okay. I thought I was over the whole accident in the bed phase, but I guess I'm not." Hal sighed.
"We'll help you get through it. You can conquer that again. We know you can." Barry says.
"We're your friends." Shane says.
"I'm probably going to go for a while." Atticus says.
"NOOOOO!" Angry Luigi screamed, watching him leave.
"Atticus, they feel bad enough. You leaving will crush Brandy. And he can't keep going through things like this. You're his hero." Savannah says. "We all have our strengths and weaknesses, but we overcome them. Please don't break his heart. He looks up to you."
With Lucy, she had red eyes well hidden. She began worrying that Luke was hurt.
She slapped herself. "No, he's fine." She says.
Leni made suits for Luke's graduation and half-birthday. And graduation suits for the boys as well.
With Luke, Hal sniffed.
"We'll all be better friends." Luke says. "We'll start supporting each other from now on."
"Let's start enjoying our senior trip, shall we?" Garth asked.
And so, the boys went off to enjoy the rest of the day while they had it, even getting Shane and Hal their shirts with their names airbrushed on them.
Meanwhile, Atticus looked at Angry Luigi after thinking about what Savannah had said. After realizing that he'd break Angry Luigi's heart by leaving, he decided to stay put. Causing depression and trauma wasn't what he was about.
