The Six Campers and The Soldier: A Camp Cretaceous Story (OC fanfiction)

Things Fall Apart

Today's the big day, the paddock is going to be inspected, Masrani's helicopter had already flown by, most likely heading towards Paddock 11. Hamada has reassured me that everything is fine and the animal is content. I shake my head, stop worrying about it, if Hamada says it's fine then nothing to worry about. I see Darius burst through the doors with excitement. "What's up, Camp Cretaceous. Whoo-hoo!" I chuckle, I serious like and worry for this kid at times. Kenji ruins the mood. "Not in a 'whoo-hoo' this morning, Darius. Not after what happen yesterday." I says while narrowing his eyes at Skits. Skits slurps his juice box. "We only had to walk because you crashed our gyrosphere." He says pointing a crayon at Kenji who actually growls at Skits, scaring him to hide behind Darius.

"But today is a new day, Kayak Day. Who doesn't want to kayak next to dinosaurs...real dinosaurs.....wait, where are Dave and Roxie? He questions. Before Kenji can answer, I cut in. "They left early to go somewhere, Dave left a note." I say as I walk past Kenji snatching the note out of his hand. I pass it to Darius. "BRB. Gotta go. Boss-talk. BB. Later. Smiley face....is that a dinosaur emoji with a thumbs up?" He confusedly questions. "It's Dave speak." Kenji puts in. "Roxie translated on the back." I tell Darius as he flips the note. "We have to go talk to our boss. Stay inside until we return we return. Draw, bond, whatever. The radio is set to channel six for emergencies. While we are gone, Ryan is in charge, make sure Kenji doesn't do anything stupid. Sorry about the kids menu, it's all Dave had." He finishes looking back to the table with arts and crafts.

"Do they understand how old we are, like when was the last time you saw a crayon?" Kenji complains loudly, no one is happy about it mate but seriously, get over it. Skits shows a wonky drawing of him and Bumpy playing chess, he seems very proud of his work. "Hmm, I have notes." Yasmina critics, damn give the poor guy a break. Sammy jokingly reprimands Yasmina, glad that those two have hit it off.

BANG!

We all turn to see Brooklynn standing in the doorway with a seething expression on her face. "Next time, remember, open gently." I jokingly say with my fingers pressing together like I'm a therapist. "Hey Superstar, what's new on the internet." Yasmina sarcastically asks. "Hmm, I don't know. I went to check my phone from the charger and it wasn't there. Someone took my phone!" She yells angrily. While attached to it as she is, it reasonable why she's angry, if someone stole my property I'll be pissed too.

"Brooklynn, who hasn't had your phone?" I ask.

"I needed to check the weather last night."

"Dr Sattler, posted a new article on microfossils."

"Couldn't miss the selfie op. It's not every day that you look this good."

Skits, Darius and Kenji all say at the same time. Brooklynn looks bewildered. "Maybe, when you find it, you should put a pin lock on it." I say. Brooklynn then glares hard at Sammy. "I...I haven't seen it either." "Really." Brooklynn doesn't believe her, why. "Hey, everybody just take a break, since we're not kayaking today, we have plenty of time to look for the phone." Darius interjects being the voice of reason.

"Ohhhh, I know exactly where it is. I also think that whoever took the phone is trying to hide some of the things that are on it. What do you think, Sammy?" She aggressively questions and looms over Sammy. I've had enough of this. I pull Brooklynn back. "That is enough. Don't start accusing people who you think might have it. We will look around first and if we can't find it than sorry to say, than we look through our bags to see who taken it, ok." "Whoa, why should we look through people's bag?" Yasmina interjects in front of me. "I said that we will only look through the bags if we can't find it lying around. I don't know if you know this but stealing someone's things regardless of what it is a crime and I don't want to jump to that conclusion, ok." I say, putting an end to the argument. Yasmina huffs. "Fine, we'll do it your way." She says as she shoulder checks me. Wow.
