Ben folded up a paper aeroplane and launched it at the back of the teachers head, Ben was immediately caught but turned his head to look at the clock on the wall.

"C,mon, C'mon....!" Ben whispered to himself as he saw there was less than a minute until school was over and the summer officially starts.

"And I just want to remind you all that I will be teaching summer school this year, and it's not to late to sign up." The teacher announced.

"Yeah right," Ben whispered, a smirk was visible on his face. The bell chimed, which signalized that school was finally over.

"Yes!" Ben cheered as he launched himself from his seat, "I am outta here!" Ben added. As he began to make his exit out of the classroom like everyone else.

"Everyone, have a good vacation, and I hope to see you all again in the fall." The teacher said, but she stopped Ben before leaving. "Benjamin, could I have a word with you?" She asked, pulling out the paper aeroplane that Ben had thrown earlier.

When was finally released from after his lecture with the teachers, he notices his fellow student Talia getting picked on by Cash and J.T., cornering her into a tree.

"Normally we'd take your money and beat you up, but since today is the last day of school, we're gonna give you a break. So fork over the cash, so we can get outta here, Freak" Cash spoke, calling out for she stood out a lot, everyone picked on this girl.

"Leave her alone." Ben said, and the three turned their heads to see Ben, standing there with a glare that was somewhat intimidating if used on the right people.

"Get lost shrimp," J.T. spoke as he took a step closer towards Ben. "I said; Back Off." Ben said not standing down.

"Oh, looks like we got us a hero. Suppose we don't wanna back off." Cash said, a smirk on his face as he walked towards Ben. Talia just Remained in her place, curious about what Ben was going to do, this wasn't the first time he had stood up for and she knows it won't be the last.

"What 'ya gonna do about it, Tennyson?" J.T. humored. The three shared glares at each other before Ben let's out a battle cry of sorts and ran at the two bullies.

Next thing Ben knows is that he and Talia are hanging in a tree, side by side Ben by his underwear and Talia by her shirt.

A strange bird flew over to Ben than to Talia and nestled on her head.  "Thanks for your help, Ben," Talia said calmly as she began to pet the bird.

"I was just trying to help," Ben said dejectedly as he crossed his arms. "I know, just make sure you can actually back it up next time you want to be a hero. Okay?" Talia said, "Fine..." Ben says lazily in defeat.

Just then a beige RV with a red stripe going around the side of it pulled up.

"Come on, Ben, let's go! I wanna make it to the campsite before nightfall!" Max said.

"Um, Grandpa a little help here?" Ben said just as the bird on Talia flew away.

Max drove under Ben and he jumped down along with Talia who was thankful for the help, who parted ways soon after.

"I have SO been looking forward to this!" Ben said as he enters the RV that often call the Rustbucket. Ben's eyes went wide at the site of his cousin Gwen and little brother Xendal

"What are YOU doing here?! What are THEY doing here?!" Ben asked his grandfather and pointed at Gwen and Xendal.

"Take it easy dweeb, this wasn't my idea. Somebody convinced my mom that going camping for the summer would be 'a good experience for me'." Gwen explained, "I was told that I am old enough to come with you now, isn;t that great big brother!" Xendal states.
