"Stella, it's your turn." Rosie smiles, looking at the other.

"Oh!" Stella smiled as she took hold of the banner, smiling.

It was a day in summer camp that was set in the edge of a taiga forest, and the activity we were doing was just scavenging for berries. We learned about what berries grow there in the taiga, and the most common most possibly are raspberries, bunchberries, cloudberries, and cranberries. And at the time we were going to be picking raspberries.

Luckily, there was a large patch of them deeper in the forest, but it was surrounded by a large thorn patch, so we all had to carefully go through before we're able to pick the berries.

I was being a bit slow, careful not to go near the thorns but the kid behind me was getting a bit impatient, so they just shoved me to the side and ran ahead. That kid didn't see or felt that they shoved me hard, but they did, and I stumbled right into a thorn bush, making me scream and cry. One of the counselors heard, ran right over and carefully helped me out while another was able to stop the kid from just diving right into the bushes and they got in so much trouble while I had to miss out on the activity. And I was really wanting to do that.

"Now that's screwed up!"

"Why would that kid even do that in the first place?! A simple, 'Hey! Can you hurry up please?' would be fine but nooo! They just had to just push you side to get to the berry bushes!" Nightman ranted, Stella chuckling quietly.

"If I were there, I would question that kid immediately." Fiona said, folding her arms as Stella hummed.

"Were you alright afterwards?" Nightglow asked.

Stella hummed in thought as she pulled out a piece of paper from Tara's hat, "Well, I had to get all the scratches I got from the thorns to be bandages up and disinfected, meaning that my whole body was stinging in pain, but I guess I was fine afterward. One of the counselors picked berries for me and gave it to me afterwards since we were learning to scavenge the berries, and our reward is that we get to eat them after they've all been thoroughly washed." she explained.

"And the kid?" Nightglow asked.

"He still was able to eat his berries." Stella said as she opened the slip of paper.
