Hey, you crazy campers, remember Julia's silly story challenge??
<
It was a normal day in Cabin X. In the loosest sense of the word
possible, that is. Steph had just popped a tape in the VCR next to her
bunk, and had an evil smile on her face. Laura(47) wondered whether
something was wrong, but didn’t want to interrupt her recital of a
certain song from a certain musical involving a boat. [1] Liz and Julia,
however, knew what that smile meant, and got out the straight jacket.
Then, the tape started. It was the one with "Fallen Angel" and "Eve",
so Julia decided to watch, if only for "Eve", since she was missing her
clone so much. Then, the horror began. Chris Carter’s boring
commentaries on the episodes to come. Julia tried to wrench the VCR
remote from Steph’s fist, but in the middle of a tug, she glanced up at
the screen. It was the evil CC, all right, but there was something
wrong. He was naked. And painted. In pink and yellow polka dots.
Julia started whimpering at the same moment that Steph’s grin got even
more twisted and psychotic. As Ana caught a glance of the screen, she
started throwing mallows [2] at the screen, most of which Steph picked up
and threw right back. A full scale Cabin mallow war erupted... no one
was safe!! Miraculously, Suzi had not been hit for a full 30 seconds
into the fight, and she got extremely mad, as she was trying to find the
correct spelling for "apocalyptic". She got up, losing her page, to try
and strangle Steph, but the psycho shipper saw her coming and jumped out
of the open window, which had conveniently been placed there for the
purposes of this story.
"COOOOOOL", came her voice from the outside of the cabin, for she had
just found three things that were of extreme interest to her. First,
there was a sword. Not the wimpy kind either! A katana... just like
the kind Dunkie uses. [3] Also, a bunsen burner was sitting next to it,
unlit but hooked up to a gas spigot. Where the spigot came from, no one
knew-or particulary cared, for that matter. The third thing she found
was a metal box on the side of the cabin with a yellow sticker on it
that said, in big red capital letters, "HIGH VOLTAGE!"
Now, Steph, being not the brightest crayon in the box, ignored the
sword and bunsen burner, and went straight for the box. The lock was
opened, and inside she found all of the circuit breakers for the cabin.
They were arranged by bunk, so now if anyone was particularly angering
her, she could turn off their TV, VCR, and computer. This discovery
made Steph happy, so very happy...
Being in the evil mood she was in at the moment, she decided to she’d
rather be being evil. So she flipped all the switches over to the
right, turning them off. There were two main effects of this action.
First, and most noticably, the lights, computers, and TV’s all turned
off. Exactly 0.47[4] seconds later, a large groan wafted its way through
the window, which was in turn followed by less of a groan and more of a
curse, which was followed by Mysti’s rabid shouting of
"AUUGH!! THAT WAS PART 13 OF CHAPTER 4 OF THE 3RD STORY IN MY 8TH WIP [5]
SERIES!!! THE ‘MULDER AND SCULLY GET IT ON’ SERIES!!!! I’VE BEEN WAITING
FOR 2 WEEKS FOR THAT! AAAAHHHHHH!!!!!!!!"
Which was followed by an enraged Mysti running out of the cabin door,
throwing macaroni noodles at Steph, who was ducking and running away,
along with her new sword, of course. And, following that, Mysti turned
the cabin’s power back on, much to the relief of Alex, who was busy
writing his own fanfic, and had fortunately just saved it.
These were all following the leader, of course, who seemed to have been
lost sometime in the scene where Mysti converted her to shippism, from
which point on, the leader had walked off in perfect shippy bliss,
leaving the rest of us behind to suffer. But that really isn’t
important, as the scene was cut due to time restictions.
9 minutes later, Steph decided that it would probably be safe to once
again enter the Cabin. Apparently, it was somewhere near some type of
meal, probably breakfast, or, with the sleeping habits of these
particular campers, 2 in the afternoon. Several campers were eating
what appered to be scrambled eggs, a few were eating peanut butter and
jelly sandwiches, and one was even eating corn flakes. Liz was busy
singing to the Cabin that she was a Chiquita banana, which was backed up
by the little blue sticker on her forehead, and the very convincing song
and dance routine. If you were to ask her why she did this, she would
probably break out into giggles, and promptly spray her beverage on
everyone, but she continued it nonetheless. Suzi was off inflicting her
own kind of torture on herself. Chewy Zap after Chewy Zap ented her
mouth, and were not spit out. It was an amazing test of bravery, and a
teriffic show of stupidity. Steph decided to help her find her way out
of this self-inflicted misery.
"WHY are you doing that, Suzi dear? Trying to kill your remaining
brain cells?"
Susan gave Steph a look that could probably burn holes through kevlar,
but Steph continued.
"You want me to help you find what you were looking up? It was
apocalyptic, right? Oh, here-I found the page! Abracadabra to
assimilation..."
"GIMMIE that," Susan squealed as she yanked the book from Steph’s
hand. When she saw that the page actually WAS abracadabra to
assimilation, she got up, losing all care for the book resting on her
lap, and started banging her head on the wall. Steph had enough sense
to leave her alone.
And so another possibly chaotic scene in the little well of insanity
known as Cabin X ended peacefully. Well, relatively peacefully. Mysti
and Alex were back to their fanfic, Caitlen was warning Stanley about
proper mallow behavior, Julia had deserted in favor of the fence, and
Liz had thankfully calmed down, and stopped showing people her tie-dyed
undies. THE END
Back to CabinX
