Camp Camp Fanfiction: Do Us A Solid

Chapter 2: In The Woods, Back To Camp

As the kids were being loud and rowdy on the bus ride, they come to a complete stop and David, Gwen, and the Quartermaster went outside to see what happened. As the three adults stepped out, the kids all rushed to one side of the bus to see what had happened. The Quartermaster stepped back in the bus with some terrible news.
"Guys, I have some. Two of the Bus' tires have gone flat, and we're getting a tow truck out here to help us, so for the time being, I want all of you to excite the bus and go next to Gwen so we can do ahead count." The Quartermaster ordered and everyone got off and going next to Gwen. They were pretty far from the camp and they were by a Seven-Eleven.
"Listen up campers!" Gwen said. "I know that we are by a Seven-Eleven, and you all are probably starving, I will buy you all one thing - my treat, before the tow truck comes." Gwen said and the campers cheered and ran inside of the store. This gave Max an idea. He pulled aside Nikki as she was just about to walk in.
"Hey, Nikki, Wanna ditch them and go back to the camp?" Max whispered to Nikki. She looked at him almost wide eyed.
"I don't know Max. I kind of want to be with the campers." Nikki replied with a bit of uncertainty in her voice.
"C'mon! We can find a husband for the platypus and sneak into the Mess Hall for some snacks!" Max convinced Nikki. She glanced back by David, who was on the phone with the tow truck people, and to the other campers who were with Gwen as they paid for their snacks and drinks. Looking finally back to Max, who had the smirk across his face, nodded.
"Okay, let's go!" Nikki said. "But only for the platypus and the food!"
"Yeah, okay, whatever. Let's hurry before they know we're gone." Max said as he ran and Nikki alongside with him. Neil was over by the vending machine when he saw he two friend dash off. Clutching his water, he ran towards them and somehow managing to catch up with them. Nikki and Max glanced over to him.
"Glad to see you're doing the party." Max said with a small smirk.
"What were you guys doing!?" He asks them.
"We're going back to camp." Nikki said and Neil stopped them by yanking their shirts.
"Are you guys ready? You're gonna be so busted when David and Gwen find out!" Neil exclaimed to the two.
"Neil, we don't care, we live for danger and adventure!" Nikki said as she took his hand and she continued running. Max follows but then gets in front of the two.
------------
If feels as if they were running for hours with such tiny legs. They were getting tired so they were speed walking.
"Guys... Can we at least take a break...?" Neil asked Max. Max nodded and all three of them plopped theirs butts down on the grass, Nikki was actually laying in the grass. Breathing heavily, Max commented,
"We'll start moving in 5 minutes..." Suddenly they heard rustling coming from the bushes and trees. All three of them stood up and went back to back. The rustling got stronger and louder. Nikki gulped, Neil was shaking, and Max was glancing around the the area. Then the rustling stopped and it was dead quite. The three glanced at each other and started to move again... Until someone fell from the tree in front of the kids. Nikki and Neil screamed from being startled while Max just stood there. There, on the ground, laid a boy dressed in all black with a patch over his eye.
"Billy, the fuck you doing out here!?" Max yelled at the boy. Snake got up and stared at Max.
"How many times do I have to tell you!-" snake started as he grabbed his candy cane that was really a knife and aimed it for Max. "To call me Snake-"
"Max here!" Nikki said as she through him a large tree branch. Max caught it and wacked Snake with it. He feel to the ground and from the bushes, out came the Wood Scouts.
"Ugh Snake what was that pathetic move you just pulled!?" Edward Pikeman, head leader of the Wood Scouts, said to his fellow member. "That's not what I asked you to hunt! I said hunt and kill animals not people!" He said.
"What the fuck are you all doing here?" Max asked Edward and his crew. Edward glanced over to Max and he chuckled.
"Hello, Little Maggot, glad to see you're still in once piece." Edward said as he took a few steps in front of Max.
"That doesn't answer his question, dip shit!" Neil said. "Wow it felt good to say that!" Neil said under his breath with a smile.
"Yeah! What he said!" Nikki said being the Hype girl of Max.
"Isn't it obvious? We're out hunting so Snake, here, can get his hunting badge!" Edward commented as he pulled Snake up to his feet. Max, Nikki, and Neil were still baffled. Then Max had a idea.
"Psst, I saw this on TV, watch this." Max said. He then circles around Edward, looking and inspecting every detail on him, and finally back to face him.
"So... Hunting huh? That's all you're doing?" Max asked with a small smirk.
"Wipe that smirk of your childish face! Of course that's it!" Edward's voice cracked. Petrol, Snake, and Jermy noticed this and tried desperately to hold in laughter. Edward turned to them and they stopped. Max looked on the side of Edward and Neil noticed something off about Edward. He never seemed this nervous...
"Then, uh, what's in that pocket of yours?" Max asked as he swiped out a huge, black brick form his pocket. An old fashioned walkie-talkie. Max gave it to Neil and he observed it. All of them heard slight muffles coming from the device. Neil then turned up the volume and they heard voices coming through the other end.
"Abort mission Wood Scouts! Abort!" A female voice said an the other end.
"Hey... I know what voice..." Nikki said to herself. Max and Neil turned to her.
"What did you say, Nikki?" Neil asked her but Nikki ignored him and ran to Edward furious and in rage. She tackled him to the ground and pinned him down so he'd stay still.
"I'm only gonna ask you this once! Who the hell are you working for and why!?" Nikki asked Edward. He was scared to talk but Nikki shoved his head down into the dirt so he'd talk.
"I-I can't say!-"
"Say it!! Who and why!?" Nikki screamed. The members of the wood scouts just stood their petrified. Max and Neil knew Nikki was capable of going wild to get an answer out of someone with force. Nikki tugged on Edward's hair till he gave in.
"Okay! I'll talk! I'll talk!" Edward said as he was gonna cry. " We-We're working for the girls from across the lake! L-Lake Lilac!" Edward said and Nikki got off of him and backed away from him.
"No... No...." Nikki said as fear filled her eyes.
"Nikki get a hold of yourself, what did you just see or heard!?" Max said as he shook Nikki to get a grip.
"What girls!?" Neil asked as all three of them backed up.
"That's enough boys, you were useless. We'll take it from here." a feminine voice said behind Max. The Wood Scouts then scurried away from the voice and before the three kids could have a chance to turn around - all of a sudden, everything went black for Nikki and Max.
"Guys...? Guy?!" Neil said in fear.
