KENJI

The moonlight illuminated the 7 boys on the deck of the ship while a light cold breeze made them shiver slightly.

The rich boy's eyes widened.
<<Sorry?>>
he asked.

Brooklynn walked straight through the campers and stopped when she was close enough to MaryBelle and then looked at Darius, who was about to jump on the spot.
<<Say it... I know you're dying to talk...>>

<<Because she is the daughter of the paleontologist Moreno Raptor! Famous for having unearthed the complete adult skeleton of the second specimen of Tassobox Scipionyx!>>
Darius exclaimed with a toothy grin as he looked at his friends, who shrugged in confusion.
<<You don't understand... It's the rarest fossil in the world... The only specimen found was a puppy that they estimated had only lived a few days!>>
He explains enthusiastically.

Sammy opened his mouth and let out a loud "Ohhhh."

MaryBelle poised the toe of one shoe on the ground, swinging her leg shyly from left to right as she nodded.
<<Yeah... I also know who you are... Well... At least in part...>>
The little girl said.

Ben raised his eyebrows and narrowed his eyes at Kenji with an "I think he's a spy" look.

MaryBelle pointed at the superstar and then slowly swiped at the other campers.
<<You are Brooklynn, I have always loved your videos among other things... there is Yasmina, the cross-country champion... Kenji, with his father full of financial shares... Darius, the winner of the video game that beat me by a few hours... it's then... I guess the last two are Sammy... who showed up first and from the boots I'd say the cowgirl and... Ben... Which my father had recommended to stock up on sanitizer...>>
She said before her gaze slowly faded.

Sammy, probably the most sensitive of the group, approached the girl and placed a hand on her shoulder.
<<Hey... I'm sure your parents reached the ferry in time>>
The Texan reassured her, giving her a friendly smile.

MaryBelle managed a weak smile in return.

<<Good... Welcome to the Nublar 6... Well... Now the Nublar 7>>
Darius said as he approached the new addition to the group.

Ben and Yasmina looked at each other, raising an eyebrow, unsure whether to place their trust in the new girl.

Brooklynn rubbed her eyes.
<<Now can we go back to sleep? Tomorrow we have to walk to the base...>>
She proposed, yawning.

<<Oh... me... I should stay awake... since I slept half the afternoon... And also since I can't travel much under the sun...>>
MaryBelle started to say.

<<I can keep her company... However, I don't think I would be able to sleep...>>
Yasmina said quickly.

<<Okay ok... everyone go to sleep children...>>
The rich boy said as he gently shoved the remaining campers towards their cabins.

YASMINA

She didn't like the new girl, she had come out of nowhere. Maybe he was lying.

Yasmina sat down on one of the sofas and studied the new girl thoroughly.

<<I know you don't trust me... I can see it from the way you look at me...>>
MaryBelle said softly, sitting on the sofa in front of the one where the sportswoman was.
