Chapter 1

Camper Aliza was swimming in the lake and goes up to the lifeguard.  She say, “I’m bored. Can I go to the pool?  At least they have a water slide.”

“Only,” the lifeguard started, “if your lake buddy agrees.”

Aliza swam over to the dock and zoomed back over to the gate.

“OK, my name is Aliza and my buddy is Kylie.”

“OK, you may go,” the lifeguard said to Aliza.

Both Kylie and Aliza race over to the pool but stopped in the middle. They heard a loud crowd of juniors. Juniors poured out of the pool area. Kylie quickly found a girl named Ella and asked what was going on.

“The slide broke in half,” Ella said.

Soon the rest of the stampede comes and Aliza and Kylie fall down, hurting themselves. Kylie broke her braces, and Aliza broke her index finger.

Then, the stampede stopped. A counselor found Aliza and Kylie lying on the ground in the middle of the hull-ball court.

“Quick, call the hospital,” the counselor shouts.

“Um, hello, um. Two girls just fell in a stampede,” the counselor said again.

As the counselor was having a talk with 9-1-1, Aliza ran over to where survival skills is because she was afraid of the hospital. Luckily, it was her finger that was broken and not her toe or foot. Kylie ran after Aliza. Aliza stopped to catch her breath, and Kylie caught up.

Chapter 2

They both climbed up the trail and got up the hill. Kylie got up last, and as soon as she touched food on the hill, both girls heard a loud bang. The trees looked shorter, and the tepee wasn’t there anymore.

Aliza and Kylie screamed and ran down the hill, out of Survival Skills.

“He, look, I don’t see the rock wall through the trees” Kylie says.

“Yeah,” Aliza starts, “Oh my god, we are in the year 2002 when LLDC first opened.”

“You’re right, but how do we get out?” Kylie questioned.

“Well, first let’s see if there is a meeting going on. Maybe that’ll give use a clue.”

So Kylie and Aliza ran over to the amphitheater and noticed a lot of woodchips. Nope, no benches and no stage. But they did hear a loud voice coming from on top of the hill. Kylie realized it was Andy.

“Everyone, just to make it clear, we are moving the rock wall right off of where the bridge ends.”

Chapter 3

“Kylie, maybe if we go back to Survival Skills, we could hear the loud bang and we would be home,” Aliza explains.

“You’re right. Let’s go,” Kylie replied.

Both girls run to Survival Skills to see if there was a loud bang once Kylie reached the top. Nothing. Except for a piece of old paper.

It read, “How you get back is not what you seek. The next clue is by the creek”

“So I am guessing we need to find all the clues to get back home,” Kylie explains.

“You’re right,” Aliza admits.

The girls rush over to the creek that flows below Backwards Bridge.

Again, they find a paper that reads, “The secret bridge is on the lake, so the clue is there but on a steak.”

“OK, so where is the secret bridge?” Aliza asked.

“Since I have been here longer than you, I can show you,” Kylie replied.

“OK, so you were here longer than me by a week,” Aliza stated.

Kylie lead the way across the Willow Field. They raced across boating and in and out of Turtle Town. They zoomed past Bee Keeping. Out there was the trail to get over the secret bridge by the highway. Once they got over it, Aliza found a tent with a post, and on the post was an old piece of paper.

It read, “Up at the highest peak will be the clue in which you seek.”

“Hey, Aliza?” Kylie said.

“Yeah?”

“What the heck does that mean?” Kylie asked.

“I think I know what we need to do,” Aliza said heroically.

“OK, and what is that?” Kylie questioned.

“Follow me,” Aliza said.

Aliza is leading the way up the hill to the playground. She climbed up it and finally saw the old sheet of paper that read, “The arrow you find is in a basket next to the woods in a casket.”

“OK, so I am guessing there is a casket next to the woods, and in the casket there was a basked with an arrow inside, and on the arrow is the clue,” Kylie syas.

“OK, so what place has arrows?” Aliza asked.

“Archery!” both girls shouted.

The girls rush down the hill, but Aliza stopped for a moment and said, “Where is Archery at?”

“Just follow me,” Kylie replied.

Kylie led Aliza to Archery and didn’t see a casket.

“Oh my gosh, this is a trick question. They said by the woods, right? Well, then that’s the pavilion, Woods.” Aliza said.

“You’re right.”

Chapter 4

The girls race over to where the Woods is. Next to it, they find a casket. They open the casket and find inside a basked. They looked in the basket and saw an arrow with a clue attached to it.

The clue read: “Near boating in a blue attached to the wheel will it move.”

“By boating in a blue boat attached to the steering wheel,” Kylie said.

“So we have to run all the way across the lake,” Aliza complains.

“Well, we don’t always need to run. We could always swim.” Kylie said, “Hope you have your bathing suit on.”

The girls swam across the lake.

“Look, there is a paper.”

Aliza (the athletic one) climbed up the boat and grabbed the paper.

It read, “This is the last clue you find although it may not rhyme. After you read the clue aloud you shall make a sound.”

“Kylie, make a sound,” Aliza screams.

“Uh. Uh, lalala,” Kylie shouts.

BOOM!

“The sound,” Aliza said.

“We’re home,” Kylie shouts.

“Look, we are back by the office!”

“We made it home,” Kylie says.

“Now let’s promise never to go on that hill again,” Kylie said.

“OK.”
