"so," x-ray started. "how do you like camp so far, y/n?" he asked. she simply shrugged. she didn't mind the questions, she minded the interview. it annoyed her, how they wanted to know everything. sometimes, even zero or zigzag would say "she gets in her zone when she's diggin'" or something along those lines.

the truth was, is when she would zone out, she would think of her biological father. he got addicted. it made her blood boil. she didn't want to end up like him.

one thing in the barlow bloodline, is danger. they were kind, they were also all dangerous. the females at least. some men in the barlow bloodline were crazier than the devil.

"hey, fuel. you okay?" zigzag asked her as she got up from her hole to get her canteen filled. she didn't bother to listen in on any conversations, she just needed sleep the night before. so it came of shock to her when yelling of x-ray getting the day off, she looked up woozily. she nodded to zigzag, only wanting sleep. she finished her hole around an hour or so later and went to the wardens cabin to shower. she respected the warden, and the warden respected her.

"hey y/n?" the warden called as y/n exited the bathroom. "what's your last name?"

"it's barlow. like kissin' kate barlow, she's my great great grandma." y/n commented. "well i'll be damned. have a nice day hun." she said before we parted ways.

walking out was like every other day. she walked out and by no means did she want to get into another fight, but if she had to, she would. as she walked out, she saw armpit dancing like he was in a music video. she chuckled at this and got closer to the scene. she was right by zigzag now, they looked at each other and laughed. armpit raised his arms up and everyone, including y/n, plugged their noses. "put em down, man!" was shared through the kids. they had a nice week, but boy, they missed barfbag a ton.

-a week later, yelnats arrives.-

"hey, i don't know how i feel about y/n's current nickname." x-ray whispered to the boys around him. "neither do i." zigzag said.

"i mean, it doesn't really suit her well. what about.." magnet stopped, he thought for a second. "what about.."

everyone went into deep thought about the girls new nickname when a bus pulled up. it had been a few weeks since barfbag left.

"hey, what about smoke? i mean, she's smokin hot and she's like all in for the smoke, like fights n stuff, ya know?" magnet said. the boys around him looked at him and agreed.

"heya, you guys aren't exactly quiet." squid said. y/n looked out of her hole and got out to whisper to zero.

"looks like we got fresh meat." she giggled to him. he smiled and let out an airy chuckle. she helped him up to see who was in the bus, and who was comin out.

"fresh meat!" armpit called. it spread across the holes and soon walked out a boy with curly hair, and he seemed a little thin. of course, no one could tell because of his baggy-sided clothes.

none of the kids knew it, but stanley yelnats IV walked out of the bus. they just plainly went back to digging.

-time skip to tent greeting-

"this is your tent, everyone, meet stanley yelnats the IV. that's y/n, alan, theodore, ricky, rex, jose, and that there is zero. you know why they call him zero? it's because nothings goin on in his stupid little head." mom said.

"man, who are those people? i only know smoke, squid, armpit, zigzag, magnet, and x-ray. also, zero ain't stupid man. he just simply don't like you." armpit snapped. y/n looked over at zigzag in shock, zigzag sharing the same look.

zero looks pretty pissed off.

"and y/n, she don't talk much. but when she do, she leaves her mark." mom said rightfully. "it's smoke, get it right, cream-nose." she said stubbornly. mom just looked at her and walked out.

stanley was shown where he'd sleep. he looked at y/n, and stared. he though she was so beautiful. "hey man," x-ray whispered to stanley. "what's up?" stanley asked.

"just so you know, pretty much everyone at this camp has a thing for her, so don't get your hopes up." x-ray warned. stanley nodded as y/n talked to zero about mom.

zigzag laughed at a joke squid made. magnet and armpit were doing whatever. and stanley and x-ray? they did nothing. they just stared blankly at each other.

"yo, smoke, there's a scorpion on your pillow!" armpit yelled, pointing to a scorpion on the girls pillow. "kill it. or will i have to do that for you?"

she walked up and shook her pillow so the scorpion would fall. as it fell to the ground, she stomped on it as hard as she could, the scorpion going dead.

"wouldn't be the first kill." she muttered. stanley looked at her in amazement. he wondered why she was there. what she had done.

x-ray told him. he knew what he wanted to know, so he told him. stanley looked at him like he'd never seen a human before. "did she mean to?" stanley whispered. x-ray gave him a disappointed look.

x-ray mentioned that smoke didn't mean to do it. did stanley pay attention to that part?

"hey guys.." armpit said, shaking at something. heads turned and everyone looked at armpit, only to see a yellow spotted lizard on the ground. y/n had a sailors mouth, (like same here tbh) so it was only right for her to say,

"FUCKIN KILL IT!" cshe and many others shouted. mr. sir walked in, "why isn't the tent- HOW THE HELL-" he shouted before shooting the lizard.

y/n clung to zigzag and zero, holding on for her dear life as if mr. sir were to shoot the rest of em. mr. sir simply walked out.

"what the hell.." stanley whispered to himself. "now that wouldn't be the first one he's shot in a tent, but oh my god." squid whispered.

time passed by quickly as everything at dinner had happened normally. although, for some reason, zigzag would stare at y/n. and for some reason, every time she saw, she would appear to have a light blush on her face.

zero and smoke laughed at something that mr. sir said as they walked back to "D" tent, and each individual fell asleep, one after another.
