Darla and Amber's Parent Trap

chapter 4

The next day...

"Phew!" Darla wiped her forehead. "I think I need a nap before the next activity, I don't know about you, girls."

"Same here." Hallie said.

"The does not seem like a possibility." Nicole said.

"Why not?" Hallie asked.

"That's why not." Nicole pointed to their cabin.

"Uh-oh, looks like Annie got her revenge." Darla said.

They all looked to see that their beds were on the roof of their cabin.

Hallie couldn't believe it. "No way."

"Well, looks like you two are even then." Darla smiled nervously.

"Not even close." Hallie narrowed her eyes.

"Are you serious?" Darla asked.

Hallie nodded firmly.

"This is going to end badly..." Darla bit her lip.

Hallie, Zoe, and Nicole went to Annie and Amber and their friends' cabin later that night. The girls inside the cabin were fast asleep as Hallie and the others plotted even more revenge. And where they were going to get them all, except for Amber of course, since she was Darla's best friend. The girls set up traps all around the room and pranks.

They then giggled as they came back to their cabins for the night, but would come in the morning after the horn to check to see how their little practical joke went. Unknown to them, there would be a surprise inspection. Annie came out of her bed and yelled out as the floor was incredibly sticky. The other girls screamed as they were all violated with their hair, whipped cream, and their hair in spikes.

There were strings all around which set off a bunch of water balloons. The only one that didn't get pranked was Amber. She did wake up from the splashes from the water balloons and the screams from her bunk-mates. She then gasped as she looked all around and saw what had become of the cabin.

"She didn't get me." Annie smirked as she avoided getting soaked by the water balloons.

"I wouldn't say that just yet." Amber said as she saw a big water balloon was now rolling down towards Annie.

Annie looked up and screamed as the large water balloon came down and splattered all over her. Amber winced and clenched her teeth.

"That girl, without a doubt, is the lowest, most awful creature that ever walked the planet!" Annie snapped.

"Thank you, thank you very much." Hallie smirked, doing an Elvis Presley impression.

"Can this get any worse?" Amber and Darla sighed.

"Morning, girls." Marva Sr greeted as she walked with her daughter.

"Morning, Marvas," Hallie, Zoe, and Nicole replied angelically before doing a double take. "MARVAS?!"

"Surprise inspection!" Marva Sr announced to the girls who were just waking up. "AttenSHUN!

"Uh-oh..." Amber said.

"No, no, Marva do not go in there..." Hallie said as she ran to the screen door to block the counselors from going into the cabin. "One of the girls got sick last night and it's a big, big mess! Save yourself the aggravation. It's really disgusting."

"Oh, well, if someone's sick, dear, then I must go in..." Marva Sr reached for the door handle.

Hallie leaned against the door to close it as there was a bucket of tar above the door with a fan and feathers waiting inside. Darla soon got herself included so then the tar wouldn't fall on Marva Sr.

"Move aside, dears." Marva Sr said gently to them.

"No, really, we insist, we can't let you guys go in there..." Darla smiled nervously. "She's highly contagious... The girl who's sick, I mean. You might have to quarantine the whole cabin."

"Actually, we're all quite fine in here," Annie smiled slyly. "Unless Hallie Parker knows something we don't know."

"No, trust me, ma'am; you don't want to come in here." Amber said.

Annie glanced at Amber who glanced back angrily. "Really, come inside and see for yourself, Marvas." she then insisted the adults come in.

"Stand aside, please." Marva Sr told Hallie and Darla before grabbing the handle and opening the door which made the bucket dunk tar on her and her daughter.

"Noooo!" Amber and Darla panicked.

"This can only end in disaster." Amber sighed,

The counselors slipped into the wall and one grabbed a doll which made the fan go off and made feathers fall onto the two. Amber and Darla began to try to not laugh as the two counselors started to now look like chickens.

"We told you it was a mess in here." Hallie replied nervously.

"She should know," Annie glared. "She did it!"

"You and you!" Marva Sr sputtered while pointing firmly to the two identical girls. "Pack your bags!"

"If they leave, then so do we." Darla and Amber said.

"Suit yourselves." Marva Jr said, not as strict as her mother.

After a while, the Marvas cleaned up and were hiking along a trail with the girls to take them to their new shelter to punish them.

"Amber, I am so sorry!" Darla said to her best friend. "I didn't want any part in this."

"It's okay, Darla." Amber said.

Marva Jr blew her whistle to make the girls stop marching.

"Okay, girls, the rest of you back to your activities." Marva Sr announced through her megaphone.

This made the other girls not in trouble cheer and run back to camp once they were free to go.

"You four, the isolation cabin." Marva Sr firmly told Darla, Amber, Annie, and Hallie.

Marva Jr then sharply pointed upward toward the cabin.

"Yes, ma'am." Darla and Amber said.

The four girls then went into the cabin and moved their stuff in. Darla and Amber sighed as they were being punished too, but it was probably for the best.

"Hopefully we can make them become friends." Darla said to Amber as Hallie and Annie went to brush their teeth as it was getting dark.

"Hopefully." Amber said.

Maisy nuzzled up against Darla. Darla hugged her kitten and gently pet her as she looked out the window.

"I know Hallie's bad, but I like her," Patch said. "I can tell she's a dog person."

"If only there was something that the both of them like that could bring them closer together." Amber said.

"I have a sinking feel about them..." Darla replied.

That night was not an easy night, the two kept fighting over the light. Annie was writing in her diary and Hallie was trying to sleep.
