Meanwhile, Melissa arrives at her destination at exactly 6:00 am, her seventeen year old brother passed out in the car with doughnut frosting smeared all over his face, resulting in making his usually smooth face look gruff and powdery white "Melisa honey could you please pass me your brothers wrestling bag," her mom kindly asked 

 "Yes mom," she replied, looking at her brother and wondering how he is the captain of his wrestling team even though he shows poor leadership at home. Still her brother, muscle and all manages to be the most popular boy in 11th grade and excel in sports of all kind. 

"Melisa bag," her mom said annoyed, breaking her train of thought.  

"Oh here," she forgot the bag was still in her hand. As she stepped out of the car the sun bathed her in warmth, one of the many beautiful things about Orlando was its amazing sunrises and sunsets. The orange and pink colors streaking the sky, its as if Picasso was up there, paintbrush in his hand creating masterpieces left and right. Melissa stared at it and began forget that she spending her whole summer in a camp instead of going to her floor hockey tournament in Florida.

   Before she got lost in the sunsets alluring sky, Melissa said a quick goodbye to her mom and left to go to the councilor's office, it was about a mile's long walk through a beautiful evergreen forest. While  walking, she spotted a willow tree, tremendously large in its size,  her chestnut eyes landed on the trees lengthy branches. While taking in all of its beauty, a silhouette of a person darted from one end of the branch to another, the sudden movement startled her, causing her pace to pick up speed. After what seemed like hours she finally reached the councilors office. The russet door opened with a obnoxious creak.

As the door opened Melissa spotted Sarah and Ashley, she walked over to greet them " Hey guys!, looks like this will be a mundane summer." Ashley replied with a sigh, 

and Sarah conceitedly said "I know!, instead of shopping or swimming in my pool I have to sleep with spiders and pee in the woods" Ashley and Melissa both laughed, if only they knew that would be the last time they would laugh in a while.
