Chapter 3
"Ouch!" Brin said as she tripped, skinning her knee on the stone pathway. Alice just turned back and shouted at her to hurry up while Daniel had his eyes glued to a Nintendo. Brin then picked up her three luggage bags full of clothes, other luggage bag full of shoes, and 5 luggage bags of fancy dresses. If you were wondering, she wasn't actually carrying them. She was pushing them with a big golden dolly. The ones you see at hotels. She quickly splashed some fountain water on her knee then tried picking up the pace.
Closing the limo door, she sat next to her brother and sister. She grabbed some antibiotics from the emergency kit and rubbed some on her knee with a cotton ball. She winced in pain, but nobody cared. Alice was blowing a bubble with her gum and texting to her friends that she was on a vacation without her parents to Mexico. Daniel was playing Gremlins: the game where he was currently using a camera as a weapon. And the driver just pulled up the divider. Besides, Brin didn't really care if they noticed anyway. She was just fixated on why her parents would do this to her. Sure she had a couple of tantrums and didn't always do things herself or listen to them, but other than that, she was absolutely precious. At least, that's what she thought. Before she even noticed, her eyes were closed and she was drifting slowly to sleep.
She was then awakened by a loud car noise. The limo driver was beeping the horn because the car in front of them was taking so long to park and on top of that, was taking up two spaces. They then moved and their limo was parked. The limo driver opened their door and they piled out. They got their bags and were trudging to camp until all of their eyes widened. "My phone!" Everyone shouted. But he was already speeding away, doing a little happy jig while driving.
"Hey, girl! This summer is gonna be a- mau- zang!" South shouted. Brin walked closer to her while Juan and Daniel patted backs. Alice just stood there then walked to the registration booth. She filled in all their names and health forms. Brin was chatting away until she heard an angered shriek. She turned around to see a white hair dyed girl with black hair at the roots wearing pigtails and the camp shirt and khakis. "Someone just scratched my dad's car while parking. Some snooty limo."
Alice, Daniel, and Brin looked at each other with fear then looked back.
"Sir and madams, You have left you cell phones in the limo." Arthur said, walking up to them. All of their eyes widened. Pigtails stalked towards them. "Hey! Your snooty limo scratched my dad's car."
"Well, miss, our limo cost more than your car times ten!" Arthur piped up. He then walked off and left, driving in the car. Alice, Daniel, and Brin smiled sheepishly then went back to their normal routine. A lady who looked like she was in her forty's with big wrinkles, a large brown hat covering her chestnut hair with amber hair close to the tips, and for sure no boyfriend walked up to them with a green sack. "Phones aren't allowed at camp. Hand it over."
"Excuse me sir, but when will we get them back?" Alice asked, holding onto her phone like it was the last bit of food on earth.
"Gee, you don't shave your legs for a week and suddenly you're a sir. And you only get them on cellphone Sunday. Which is every Sunday."
Daniel plopped his in the bag, mainly because he had Arthur pack a flat screen T. V in the dolly and he still had three game boys, two Nintendo, and he was planning to hook up a Wii to the T. V. . Probably, he thought, I could get people to pay me for letting them play my games. Brin shaked her head. "Could you help me?" The lady said.
Pigtails stalked over and said "Whatever, Aunt Gladys."
"Aunt Gladys?" All of them said in unison.
"Yeah. She's my aunt. Which means what I says, goes. Besides, I'm head counsellor. Now give the phone or we'll give your bed to the ants and you will be sleeping in the forest."
"That'll be an upgrade." A camper said as he passed by. Brin reluctantly handed her phone, silently vowing to sneak into Counsellor Gladys's office late at night. Alice, however, was not giving up her phone. Luckily, she does cheerleading with her buddies a lot which means she has kept into shape over the summer. She was now on the floor, tugging on her phone with Gladys.
"Give it back, Sir!" Alice was shouting. Gladys then gave up, backing away and holding her hands in the air. Until Gladys whistled then a leg with muddy boots did some fancy kick to the side causing Alice's legs to tumble to the ground. Her phone was now in the dirt and cracked. Alice gasped then turned to Pigtails. She simply just smiled innocently.
"You should really workout those chicken legs. You can get awfully hurt." Alice screamed then lunged towards Pigtails. She then hit Alice smack in the face, causing her to have a black eye. "This is the worst natural smokey eye ever! Assault! I'll get my lawyers! Aren't you gonna do something?"
"Sorry, she can do whatever she wants." Gladys answered. Alice stormed off to her assigned cabin, which was Sparrow cabin, mainly filled with lots of girls who were planning to dig an escape tunnel. Daniel walked over to Wolf cabin, a place where boys can do whatever they want, say whatever they want, and smell like whatever they want. The last girl who went in there fainted the minute she stepped in, she was sent to the nurses office, which was something Gladys called for an outdated first aid kit whenever there's a health inspection and in the online website for registration. Brin had no idea where her cabin was, what it was called, and who was with her. So she just stood there for a second. Gladys walked to her luxurious cabin. It had a sort of rustic feel yet somehow a modern touch to it. Such as the wooden lamb and bed, but hints of metallic and some creepy pictures of Chris Pratt and "The Rock" despite the fact she hated wrestling and sci- fi movies since they made her feel sad that she would never get a man that strong except her Uncle Lou and that she always tries to stab the T.V when the gorgeous female actress walks on screen. But she did watch Jurassic world, and for every second hoping that the red head would get eaten by a velociraptor and Gladys would walk on stage and make out with Chris Pratt. Such as antlers painted gold, and a wooden twigs woven together to make a dinner mat.
It costs tons of money, more than happy to spend money on something other than "rotten live ruiners" as Gladys says. But she did have a little left over to scrap together some cabins for the campers. But no one questioned it since every time a kid would ask if they could see her cabin she would say that they could either see it then jump into the Rapids or not see it and won't get food poisoning for a day. Which was something campers asked quite often because the food really did taste horrible. Pigtails went to her cabin, which wasn't shared with any other campers but was still part of the weasel cabin, which really suit her personality. It was right beside Gladys's and still a bit better than everyone else but still Gladys had it better. They both had their own kitchen, bathroom, fridge and hot tub. Brin just stood there until South grabbed her by the arm and took her to their cabin.
"This is our cabin." South explained. It had beaver hide, tails, and drawings on the wall with free vegan leather jackets on each of their beds. Two other girls had their stuff already on their beds yet there was still a bed with a green caterpillar wearing bright red glasses reading a book bed spread yet no one there. There was a big pile of books, surrounding something like the great wall of China. There were even little dolls on the wall taking pictures of each other. Brin rolled one of her suit cases in to the cabin. She then took off her shoes and plopped on the bed. She turned on the lamp next to her bed then turned it off.
"SHHHHHHHHHHHH! I'm trying to study for the summer spelling bee!"
Everyone turned to find a tall girl wearing signature nerd glasses with hello kitty on the side of the rim, a purple shirt that said Beaver cabin, sweat pants, messy hair, and the same number of acne on her face as there are stars in the sky. Brin jerked back, revolted by the person she would live with for the next 2 months. South hid behind Brin which wasn't that hard for her to do considering her height. The girl glared at them for a second then mumbled something and sat down back in her book barrier. Another camper emerged from the bathroom, wearing a clown suit, clown make up, and a serious face.
"Why do you do this, Julia? To prove no one is as crappy at makeup as you are?" Nerd girl said.
"Because that stupid Counsellor in Wolf cabin thinks the girls should stick to baking in the cafeteria and using mascara for arts and crafts. I say that us ladies should march to that cabin and demand that we are allowed to go on nature walks, camping in the woods, and enter the canoeing race next week. Who's with me?" Julia said triumphantly. Nerd girl shushed them once again and continued reading. Julia grabbed Brin's arm dragging her to the bathroom. If Brin had any idea why was going to happen in the future because of this, she would have never stayed in that cabin. Not in a million years.
