the next morning I woke up early, fuck my body for naturally waking up early.

although I didn't drink that much, I still had a bit of a hangover. I rubbed my head, and got ready for the day.

as I walked in the common room, I noticed a note card on the table. I inspected it.

"Gtg boss talk bb brb"

I thought to myself, is that a dinosaur with a thumbs up?

thankfully, roxie translated it on the back.

"we have to go in for a meeting with our boss. draw, bond, whatever. radio is on channel 6 for emergencies, stay inside, stay inside, kenji looking at you, sorry for the kid menus, its all dave had."

I put the card down, and started making breakfast for my camp-mates, as well as taking an advil. I would have to leave later in the day to meet claire's nephews.

one by one, they all came in, ben, then yas and sammy, and then kenji.

I was doing a word search puzzle, while ben was drawing. sammy and yaz were talking, and kenji was swirling around in his chair.

suddenly, the doors burst open, "whats up Camp Cretaceous? Whoo-hoo!" darius exclaimed, I lifted my fist in the air, letting out an unenthusiastic "whoo-hoo", not taking my eyes off the word search.

"not in a whoo-hoo mood this morning darius. trekking in a rainstorm will do that to you" kenji complained, ben looked at him, "we only had to walk because you crashed our gyrosphere!" kenji turned to ben and glared at him, ben shrunk down, and continued to draw.

"wait, wheres dave and roxie?" darius questioned, "babysitters took off" I replied, as kenji handed him the note. darius stayed quiet, reading it, before saying, "is that a dinosaur with a thumbs up?"

I looked at him, "thats what I said!" before quickly adding, "its dave speak, roxie translated it on the back."

darius flipped it over and read it. he let out a small "huh" as kenji rolled over, "I mean, how old do they think we are? whens the last time you ever saw a crayon?!"

ben held up his drawing of me, him, and bumpy playing chess. yaz smiled, "I have notes" sammy hit her on the shoulder jokingly scolding her

darius was about to say something, when suddenly the doors flew open.

standing there was brooklyn, and she looked absolutely pissed.

"brooklyn, what's new on the internet superstar?" yasmina asked, taking note of brooklyns pissed off expression.

"I wouldnt know, because when I went to get my phone this morning, it wasn't there!"

"brooklyn, who hasn't had your phone?" I asked, everyone started to snitch on themselves

"I had to check the weather last night"

"Dr. Settler posted a new article on mircofossils"

"the lighting this morning was too good to miss the selfie opp, but I havent used it since then!"

brooklyn looked at sammy, who nervously said, "I..I havent seen it"

"well, I think that whoever took it, wanted to hide somethings on there. what do you think sammy?" brooklyn asked. what was she talking about? had Sammy been caught? I looked at Sammy, worried. If she had been caught it could jeprodize everything.

"whats your problem? sammy said she didnt see it! ever think you just lost the stupid thing?!" yasmina yelled at brooklyn, defended her friend.

"well then lets look through her bag!" brooklyn yelled back, woah, now that was too far.
