💜Chapter 1: Cheer Camp💜

Start from the beginning
                                    

"To the cheer course!" Bucky shouted before everyone began going.

"Watch and learn, Snowball and Stripes." Lacey sneered at me and my sister.

I scoffed as I glared at them. Our hair is always giving us fire from the Aceys and it's honestly very annoying. But, I always remind myself they're just doing that because they're miserable with their own, lame lives.

My sister and I looked at each other and nodded. We turned to our team.

"Let's show them that we got this!" I encouraged them. They cheered and we were off.

Addison: We're back here on the scene and everyone's together

Athena: With zombies on the team
It's better than ever, better than ever

Bucky: Those moves won't get the gold

The Acey's: Green hair is so whatever
Well, you'll never break the mold
'Cause we're better than ever, better than ever

Zed: Tearing down the power plant You're welcome, Seabrook, I'm your man
To build a place where everyone can cheer
I'm making zombie kinda cool, not feared

Eliza: Making progress, that sounds great But what's the price we have to pay?

Eliza and Zed: Ready for a new day, ready for a change
People, zombies, everybody say

All: Hey! We got this!
Teaming up to make progress
Change the rules, you can't stop this!
Together we rise, you know we got this!
Hey! We got this!
Teaming up to make progress
Change the rules, you can't stop this!
Together we rise, you know we got this!

Addison: I wish that I could call
I hope you get my letters
Hope I get asked to Prawn
It'd be better than ever, better than ever

Lacey: Oh, Addison, my love
Gargargaza are forever

Acey's: We pull the strings
We run the show
'Cause we're better than ever, better than ever

Zed: We're finally allowed to go to Prawn
Gonna get our Ziga Ziga Zombie on
Counting down the days, I've been keeping track
Kinda wishing Addison would write me back
Imagine me taking her to the dance

Zoey: A human and a zombie hand in hand

Zoey and Zed: Ready for a new day, ready for a change
People, zombies, everybody say

All: Hey! We got this!
Teaming up to make progress
Change the rules, you can't stop this!
Together we rise, you know we got this!
Hey! We got this!
Teaming up to make progress
Change the rules, you can't stop this!
Together we rise, you know we got this!

Zed: Here in this hall
Up on these walls
Picturing Addison beside me
Then they will say
We're all the same
And they can see the life inside me
Oh, what's it gonna take!
What's it gonna take!
What's it gonna take!
What's it gonna take!
What's it gonna take!

Me and the Z-team ended up at the course with the A-team.

"Zombies, you are a unique squad, but you would have to crush the course record to win. Sooo not happening!" Bucky retorted.

I rolled my eyes. How could I be related to him? He blew his whistle and the A-team went off to the course.

"Yeah, we are different, Bucky, but that's what makes us stronger." I challenged.

Bonzo agreed and lifted me onto his shoulders. "Way stronger!" we said together.

The A-team did their dance before going to the other side. There was no where they were going to beat us. Not a chance in hell.

Bucky blew the whistle as the Z-team was next.

"Come on, Z-team! Let's go!" Addison said.

We did our dance and when it was completed, the walls turned, revealing a rock climbing wall.

'We got this, let's go!" I encouraged as we all strapped ourselves and began climbing.

All: We got this!
We got this!

Addison got to the top and she extended her hand out, helping me up as we got strapped to the zip line and flew over the A-team, who looked ridiculous at this point.

Eliza & Zed: Ready for a new day, Ready for a change
People, zombies, everybody say

All: Hey! We got this!
Teaming up to make progress
Change the rules, you can't stop this!
Together we rise you know we got this!
Hey! We got this! Come on!
Teaming up to make progress (picturing Addison beside me)
Change the rules, you can't stop this!
Together we rise, you know we got this!
Hey! We got this!
Teaming up to make progress
Change the rules
You can't stop this! (picturing Addison beside me)
Together we rise
You know we got this!
Hey! We got this!
Teaming up to make progress
Change the rules
You can't stop this! (picturing Addison)
Together we rise
You know we got this!

Addison rang the bell and I cheered with my team when we knew we had won. Once we were all set down, she and I hugged before going to where the trophy were. The A-team were covered in mud and I held back my laughter. Serves them right.

Bucky looked at his team in disappointment.

"Aceys! Disappointing! You can't be scared to get those jazz hands dirty!" he yelled at them. He sighed and handed us the Cheer Camp Cup.

"Cheer Camp Cup is yours."

We all cheered as he handed it to Addison before taking it back not even a second later.

"Glad you enjoyed it, now, let's make this victory about me. I've decided to be school president this year. Now, technically, there's an election, but, come on." he had his cocky smile.

"Which means we'll need a new cheer captain while I rule the school. Who's worthy to lead?" he asked.

The Aceys began arguing saying one of them should.

"Uh, no. No, no, no. We need a captain that's going to build a united squad. Someone like Addison!" Bree explained.

"Thanks, Bree." my sister smiled.

"Addison! Addison!" we chanted her name a couple times before our best friend's eyes widened again.

"We would also need a co-captain just like her! Someone with wisdom and strategy. Like Athena! She lives up to her name so why not?"

Addison's eyes widened as she hugged me. I smiled as I hugged her back, just as surprised as everybody else.

Being a leader alongside my sister has always been my dream.

"Athena! Athena!" everyone chanted numerous times.
