Walkers

Ella is standing by Carl when Andrea and Amy walk up to them with a bunch of fish. Ella scrunches her nose up in disgust, she hates fish.

Andrea hands some to Morales "Ladies, because of you my children will eat tonight. Thank you." Morales thanks them.

"Thank Dale. It's his canoe and gear." Andrea replies.

Carl watches "Mom, look. Look at all the fish!" Carl says to his mom.

"Thank you," Lori says smiling but pulling away from the fish.

Carl looks shocked his mouth a small gape "Woah" he picks at some.

"Yeah, woah," Andrea says.

"Where did you two learn to do that?" Lori asks the two sisters.

"Our dad," Amy answers taking a sip of her water.

"Can you teach me how to do that?" Carl asks looking at Amy.

"Sure! I'll teach you all about nails knots and stuff. If that's okay." Amy looks at Lori.

"You won't catch me arguing," Lori says.

"Can you teach me too?" Ella asks.

"Yeah of course!" Amy smiles at Ella. Ella thinks Amy is really nice, probably the nicest at camp.

"Hey Dale, when's the last time you oiled those line reels? They're a disgrace." Andrea asks turning to Dale.

"I, uh- I don't want to alarm anyone but we may have a bit of a problem," Dale tells the group. Ella visibly tenses but no one notices her. Dale looks up and Ella sees Jim digging holes in the ground.

The group goes to where Jim is at. No one says anything and Jim pays no one any mind. After a couple seconds of just standing there, Shane speaks up "Hey Jim, why don't you hold up? All right?" Jim ignores him. "Just give me a second here, please?" Shane asks.

"What do you want?" Jim turns to Shane.

"We're all just a little concerned, man. That's all." Shane says.

"Dale says you've been out here for hours," Morales speaks up.

"So?" Jim looks at the group confused.

"So why are you digging?" Shane asks him. Jim rubs his face. "Are you heading to China, Jim?" Shane jokes. Ella doesn't get the joke though.

"What does it matter? I'm not hurting anyone." Jim chuckles a little.

"Yeah, except maybe yourself. It's 100 degrees today. You can't keep this up." Dale says.

"Sure I can watch me!" Jim says a little enthusiastically.

"Jim, they're not gonna say it so I will," Lori speaks up. "You're scaring people, you're scaring my son, carols daughter, and Ella," she says sassily

Ella rolls her eyes because she doesn't like when people speak for her especially if they're wrong.

"They got nothing to be scared of." Jim huffs. "I mean, what the hell people? I'm out here by myself. Why don't you all just go and leave me the hell alone?" he says sassily throwing his arms up in the air.

"We think that you need to take a break, okay?" Shane says slowly walking up to him. "Why don't you go and get yourself in the shade? Some food maybe. I'll tell you what-" says Ella stops listening because Shane is a big talker and Ella hates his voice all she's hearing is
"blah blah blah" it seems as if that's all Shane says.
