“Yes, one called earth. Our research show that so far this planet is both a very exciting and dangerous place--. And before Freddy could finish explaining Tommy interrupted him “Dude, maybe, but I’m sure it’ll be. But I’m sure it’ll never be as exciting as the week”

CAMP

Chapter 1:

“I can’t believe that our parent’s all agreed for us to spend the summer. At some camp that none of us ever heard of before”

“Instead of letting us, stay at my uncle’s dude ranch. I mean who lets their kids, go off to the middle of nowhere, without knowing where that place is like?” Tommy Cub whined as he stared out the camp bus window

“Tommy, are you going to whine and complain the whole time we’re out here?” They didn’t just dump us off. Cookie’s mom researched the camp before our parents all agreed that it’d be a great place for our summer vacation,” Daisy Penguin frowned

“Oh, yah, for all they know we can all be slaughter as soon as we get there,” Tommy smirked.

And before Daisy could answer him back the bus driver yelled

“Okay, everyone off the bus!”

 

They followed the driver off the bus and collected their bags

“Why did we’ve to get off out here?” Is the camp around here cause all I see is just a bunch of over grown trees,” Sammy Turtle frowned? The bus driver laughed at Sammy, before he answered him

“It’s just through that pebble path you can’t miss it,”

He then shut the baggage door shut and walked back inside the bus

“Okay kids, you all have a great time here at camp Joy-Joy, and I’ll meet you all right back here in a week,” The bus driver smiled. He gave them all a wave good-bye before he shut the bus doors and drove off

 

“Oh great!” You’d think that someone from the camp would be here to pick us up,” Tommy sighed

“Tommy, would you please stop being such a whiner. You heard the driver the camp is just through those trees”

“So pick up your stuff and let’s get going. Since we all know by now how wonderful life would’ve been if we all would’ve just spent the summer at your uncle’s dude ranch!” Sammy laughed

The driver didn’t lie they only had to walk short ways before they came across a wooden sign

That pointed towards the camp entrance

Chapter 2:

“Oh wow!” It looks so—

“Peaceful,” Sammy finished for Cookie as they looked around the campgrounds

“Yah, but it also looks so empty,” Vicky Dragonfly added. “Shouldn’t there be kids running around and swimming in the lake,”

“They probably are inside that cabin over there,” Daisy answered her pointing to a stone cabin that looked bigger than the others

“They’re probably eating lunch or something,” She added

“Or the bus driver dropped us off at the wrong camp,” Tommy smirked

“Oh, yah, right. Since all these camps are right next to one another I’m sure they get confused all the time”

“On which camp is which I’m sure that they’re in there,” Daisy frowned

 

They followed the path down towards the cabin. Vicky opened the door and found a small hound dog staring out the window

“Umm, hi I’m Vicky, my friends and I just arrived at camp. And were wondering where everyone was at?”

“Hi, I’m Amy, I’m the only one here. Everyone else left a few days ago,” She sobbed

“Left?” Left for where? And why didn’t you go with them?” Cookie asked her frowning. A smile spread across Amy’s face before she busted out laughing

“Sorry you guys!” I couldn’t keep a straight face anymore, you can all come out now!” She cried out

 

Soon the cabin was filled with smiling campers all of them just staring at the gang

“Hey!” What’s going on here? Was this some kina joke?” Tommy frowned

“Oh, don’t get upset little one, we do this to all the new campers. My name is Mr. Jug, your camp director, Amy why don’t you show them were their cabin’s”

“Then after you all finish unpacking I’ll see you kids a bit later at the campfire,” Mr. Jug smiled “So what’s there to do around here? Besides playing unfunny pranks on the new kids?” Tommy asked frowning. As they headed towards their cabins Amy, just laughed before she answered him

“Oh, there’s lots of things to do! We play sports, do arts and craft, we go swimming. And we’re also planning a fishing trip” Whoever catches the biggest fish will win twenty bucks”

“There’s only one thing--”

A scream coming from the end of the cornfield interrupted Amy

“Oh my! This is just awful” The voice cried once they ran over towards him

“What’s the matter Mr. Howard?” Amy asked him

“The corn! It’s ruined!” He cried.

The gang lend over to take a closer look and noticed, that the corn ear that he was holding. Had a nasty brown color to it and was filled with worms

“Oh gross!” Cookie cried out. “What’s wrong with it?”

“Sorry kids, but I can’t talk to you now I’ve to go and see if I can help the corn with my spell book,” He answered her

“You’re spell book?” Sammy asked frowning

“Yes, my spell book tells me everything that I need to know on how to take care of the crops. And other things around here” Now I’ve wasted enough time I’ve to run,” Mr. Howard explained

“What a total weirdo! He really believes in all that magic stuff,” Amy smirked as they watched him running off still mumbling to himself. And before Daisy could answer her back. A paw reached out from behind her and tapped her on the shoulder

Chapter 3:

“Boo!” Tony Cow laughed

“Tony, you creep! You scared me half to death!” Amy cried out

“Relax Am, just trying to having some fun.

“What’s wrong with creepy Howie?”

He ran passed me like he had to go to the bathroom or something,” Tony shrugged

“Oh, he’s freaking out cause the corn ear that he was holding was filled with worms. And went to check that stupid spell book looking for a cure,” Amy explained

“Oh, so are you guys just going to stand around here waiting for him to come back? Or do something fun like taking out the boat for a spin,” Tony asked smiling

 

Later that night the gang noticed that the camp director looked really nervous. Every time he’d look over to the table in where Mr. Howard was eating at. Cookie leaned over to Daisy and whispered in her ear

“Is it me or do you find that there’s something weird on how everyone’s acting?”

“Yah, somewhat. But so far everything around here is a bit weird,” Daisy whispered back. Cookie was about to answer her back

When someone yelled out from across the room

“Hey, Mr. Jug!” Are you going to tell us one your famous ghost stories tonight?”

Mr. Jug glanced nervously at Mr. Howie then answered

“Umm, sorry kids, but it’s been a very long day.

I think that it’s best if we just all call it a night”

“I’ll see you all bright and early,”

 

A few minutes later they were back inside their cabins

“Was it only me to think how weird it was the way Mr. Jug, kept staring at Mr. Howie, like. He was scared of him or something,” Cookie asked them

“Yah, I could’ve swore that old Howie, nodded his head no. When that kid asked him about telling ghost stories” I thought that was part of the whole camp experience to sit around a big camp fire and spook another?” Tommy added

 

“So what are we going to today?” Daisy asked them after breakfast

“Don’t know, why don’t we go by the lake and see if we can take the boat out again?” Tommy shrugged. A few minutes later the gang waved over towards Amy, who was getting out of the water and walked over towards them

 

“Hey guys! What’s up?” She asked them

“We were just looking for Tony, to see if we could take the boat out again,”

Tommy answered her

“Oh, I saw him by the dock earlier. Come on I’ll walk you guys over,”

Amy smiled

 

Minutes later they found Tony sitting on the dock slowly rocking himself

“Tony, are you okay? What’s the matter?” Amy asked

“The water! He’s in the water!” He grabbed me and kept pulling me under until I finally broke myself free,” Tony sobbed

“Huh?” Who tried to pull you under?” Amy gasped

“I don’t know but I could’ve swore that it was Mr. Howard! He was the one who tried to drown me!” Tony cried out

“Whoa, what! Either this is another dumb prank or you’ve been sitting out in the sun to long?” Tommy frowned

“It’s not a joke! He really tried to drown me! He yelled at them

“Okay, okay, we believe you let’s go back to our cabin and we can discuss it more,” Cookie added

Chapter 4:

When they got back to their cabin they all read the words aloud that was written in big letters

On the walls

GET OUT WHILE YOU STILL CAN!

 

“Okay, you two start talking. What’s going on around here?” I know that you’re hiding something!” Tommy cried out. Tony looked over towards Amy’s direction and shrugged

“We might as well tell them it’s probably too late anyways,”

“Too late?” Too late for what? Enough with the riddles and tell us what’s going on already!” Sammy cried out

“Okay, we’ll tell you, there have been stories going around from the older counselors about campers disappearing into thin air. And they say it’s all because--,” Amy began

“Well hello kids!” Nice day isn’t it? Have any of you seen Mr. Jug around?”

A voice from the door way interrupted her

“Umm, I saw him earlier by the food hall,” She mumbled

“Oh, I looked there just a few minutes ago I must’ve just missed him.

“Okay, well you kids, have a good day and I’ll see you all a bit later,”

Mr. Howie smiled before he walked away

 

“Now there goes one weird dude,” Sammy muttered

“Yah, he didn’t even seem to notice what was written on the wall

“Look it’s not safe to talk here. I feel like there’s something is watching us,” Amy nervously started to explain. “I didn’t like the way he kept smiling like nothing was wrong. Let’s meet by the lake house tomorrow morning, if anyone asks you were you’re going just say that you’re taking a nature hike” I promise to tell you the rest of the story then,” She added. Then Tony and Amy left before the gang could answer her back

 

The next morning the gang woke up to find that their shoes were all missing

“I can’t believe that someone broke into our cabins in the middle of the night and stole our shoes!” Daisy cried out

“I bet it was Tony and Amy, I bet this is another of their stupid jokes,” Tommy added frowning

“I don’t think it was them I’m telling you guys, there’s something very weird going on around here. I say we go and hear what they’ve to say,” Cookie told them

 

A few minutes later they made their way towards the lake house waiting for Tony and Amy to arrive

“I wonder what’s taking them
