| I wrapped both my hands around the straps to my purple-and-black, plaid backpack. The loose straps were warm against my cold hands. My expressionless face gazed around. Where I was at the time was the 'main entrance', a hill. My feet stepped softly onto the grassy ground as I reached the top of the hill and sighed.
Living with my power-less family made me feel somewhat special. Being surrounded by people who could manipulate fire, or turn invisible, made me seem weak. Did I want attention? No, I wanted company. But between the camp activities, and the already-stirring drama, I suddenly felt alone.
"Woo," I mumbled sarcastically. I studied my black-and-white, Zebra printed, converse. The far distance of chatting made me more anxious then lonely. My black hair slithered around my pale, heart-shaped face. I let it cover my eyes, trying to blend in.
Yet trying to stand out.
Around the colorful area, maybe a silent, emo-looking kid wouldn't seem so much as a wallflower. Maybe if I played dumb, I'd get a tour of this loud place. Maybe. Letting out another sigh, I blew my hair out of my face. But I'd rather not seem weird... I thought, trying to figure out how I'd manage to talk to someone. Heck, I'd start talking to a cat if I didn't feel like the new-girl-outcast.

| I had just finished pulling apart two EWEs. One fire and one water manips. That was sure to cause chaos and and raise our repair bill through now the "wet ashed" roof. I stare at it for a long while trying to hold back tears that almost burst out.
I was able to handle this for years. Being the only Camp Counselor, being in charge of everything, taking care of Charlie and Mad, let alone my cabin. And now with University on my plate, this is tough. I don't know how to manage my time and everyone is yelling at me and barking orders at me.
I rub my face with my palm as I look at the sight in front of me. This place was falling apart... literally. Chance and Zan are never around. I'm basically the one running this place.
I look at the main entrance and I see a new camper. I had a feeling that she's a new cabin mate.
[[Hi, I'm Valissa. But you can call me Val.]] |

| I looked up, spotting another girl. She looked friendly, I guess. Be a man! The thought made my head ache. Sighing, I started to travel across the hill. As I walked, my brain started buzzing. Say hi! Don't act stupid! Run away! Turn back! No, talk to her! Be nice! UGH! Was I confused.
I reached about two feet away from the other girl and glanced at her. She had red-auburn hair. It was nice looking, if that's what you'd say. My hands were stuck in my jean pockets as I began to speak. "Hi..." my voice trailed.
Being new made me shier than usual. Well, I'm not shy, but I'm not too noisy, either. "Uh, I'm new here," I decided to say the obvious. Not only did I look lost, but my voice sounded like I was confused. "And, er, my name's K, short for Koraline, Evans."
My hand flipped out of my pocket, and I let it hang in front of me. I guess a handshake wouldn't hurt, right? So, I stared down at my hands, examining the pieces of black nail polish on my nails, and sighed. Would I be this uncomfortable in camp for... ever?
~Hi, I'm Maddie. I'd like to be called Music or Moo, though 8D~ |

| ~FTW. I was talking to my other RP friends on how I had dibs to call you Moo. EPIC TELEPATHETIC.
She came up to me looking a little bit nervous. Here's the daily routine. 1. Smile. 2. Say hello and welcome them to Camp. 3. Escort them to Headquarters to find out where they belong. 4. Make sure that they are comfortable.
She introduced herself as K. I knew I shouldn't have, but I dug into her thoughts. I hated doing that, but I didn't want to go through all the trouble with going through her file and giving another tour. I had a roof to repair, a class to teach, and on top of that, I have my very first assignment for University due tomorrow. I needed to get on that right away.
"Nice to meet you K," I say again reciprocating her handshake, "I'm going to guess.... are you Mental?" |

| ~Haha, everyone loves the name Moo, as I see.~
I let go of the girl's hand, trying to let a smile creep up on my face. "Nice meeting you...." my voice faded as I looked at the ground. My fingers ran through my black hair, and I sighed. Awkward. Putting on my hood, the other girl spoke.
"Uh... do I have mental powers or am I mentally retarded?" I asked stupidly. Hey, maybe a good play with words joke my start my camp-years off peachy. Maybe not. I sighed, and tried to cover up my lame excuse for a joke. "Yeah, uh, I'm a Psychometrist. I guess you're a mentalist as well?"
My face was a little pink from my joke failure, so I hid it under my hair. As black covered my view, I remembered of my grandmother, of her funeral. Was that why I was so... odd? Maybe a fresh start? As I saw her dead body flash before my eyes, a tear filled my eye. I blinked so tears wouldn't flood the camp. Maybe, staying somewhat sober was good for now. |

| Join the Chatango Group on the Homepage and converse with us. We're all family. :]
"Erm, yeah. I'm Nyx, the Cabin Leader for Cabin 1 aka the Mentalities. Or as I call them, the Mentals. But I guess we're all mental in our own way right?" I chuckle a little bit trying to lighten up the mood. I noticed she doesn't really do well socially. Or maybe that's just because I'm do really well socially.
I then just remembered that I actually do have to take her headquarters and get all her information to make sure she actually exists.
"Why don't you follow me for a second?" I say motioning towards me as I make my way to HQ.

"Cool..." I decided was the best thing to say. My shoes felt a little uncomfortable from walking up the hill. Ugh, I needed to stay in shape. My eyes shimmered in the light, but my hair covered them up. Assuming that my hair was making me seem even more nervous, I took down the hood and tied my hair in a ponytail and looked up.
Better.
After hearing Nyx ask me a question, I nodded. "Uh sure," was all I said. I gazed around the camp. Would be a nice place to relax... I thought, trying to be an optimist. Sort of dirty, though. I guess I failed at that. |

| I started walking toward Headquarters with my clipboard in hand. I took a deep exasperated sigh I didn't know I was holding in. I scanned around camp. Wouldn't it be a miracle for this entire camp to be calm and peaceful for just a little bit?
I guess I forgot to my telepathy off because I heard some of K's thoughts. And I agree. It's so dirty and filthy and so..... HECTIC. It's frustrating!
We finally reach Headquarters. I type in my super-pin to prove that I'm allowed to be in here.
"Here we go again," I whisper to myself.
Sorry for a terrible post. |

| ~Ner problem~I bounced up my backpack and sighed. As I followed Nyx, I realized that the camp might be what I needed. Crazy, busy people might make me more interactive. Maybe not. Maybe this camp will crush me. And even worse, if it did crush me, I would have to stay here until I was 20. Trying to think optimistic was hard!
We finally reached what seemed to be the headquarters. Fancy looking, I thought. Nyx punched in some numbers, and then she whispered something. If it was important, she probably would have spoken up, so I didn't ask.
My face, by then, had turned pink. Not only was the sun out, but the long walk up the hill was a pain. My head was starting to ace, my eyes were hurting, and my legs were killing me. Hopefully, we would get this over with soon. I though, hoping Nyx did, too. Maybe then this would be fast. |

| I walk up the hill shuoldering a backpack and a black suitcase with blue, green, gold and silver splatters on it. My shoulder length brown hair was in a ponytail, topped with a baseball hat, Royals to be on the nose. I sighed, wishing Max, my puggle, was here with me. |
