Chapitre 1: Part I
The metallic, rusty, old-school bells rang through the campus and the groggy campers slowly made their way down the rickety stair case to the cafeteria for a lukewarm breakfast.
•••••••••
Marco, a junior at the nearby high school was one of the last kids down. His short, dark brown hair hung over his halfway closed, mocha colored eyes as he looked to sit by himself again today.
He's only been at Camp Remedy for a week and already felt like the only remedy was to jump through a window and escape. He excluded himself from all of the fun activities that he found lame and today would be nothing different.
The Camp director energetically marched in and blew her whistle which drew a very tired groan from the rest of the campers. "Wake up, campers!" She yelled as one of the kids planted his face into the coarse wood of the table.
Marco tied the strings of his oversized hoodie so that only his nose and mouth showed through the opening. "Today is gonna be another one of those days." He thought to himself. That was until she came along...
When the director got everyone's attention, she paced the walkway in the cafeteria. "Now everyone" she announced, "we have a new kid in the program."
Everyone lifted their heads and began murmuring amongst themselves until the room was filled with mumbling and curious campers.
The director continued, "She just moved here and is completely ECSTATIC to be with us today so welcome her with open arms!"
Marco loosened his hoodie a little and tried to peer through the gap in between the giant, wooden, double-doors but to no prevail. He was forced to come out, like a turtle coming out from his shell. "Who is this mystery kid?" Marco thought to himself.
The director then, with the swoop of an arm, opened one half of the double-doors, revealing a short teen draped in black.
She sported a crop top V-Neck that showed off everything. Her jet black hair was tied up in pigtails with purple highlights on the ends.
She wore ripped, jean shorts that stopped right above her thighs. She also rocked knee high socks with mismatched, black and white Converse. "Hi!" She said smiling, "The name's Moxxie! It's a pleasure to meet you." And she skipped into the cafeteria.
"Moxxie huh?" Marco thought, "Interesting. Very interesting."
