The moon camp is a summer camp for kids aged 9-19. It is like every other summer camp except the organizers don't pay much attention to the kids, so that means adventures for everyone!
Rules
1. No foul language.
2.Have fun!
Okay that's it.
Have fun!
P.S. You can have more than one character.

I'll start.
Lucy

It was my first year at moon camp, and I didn't think it was safe. First, the gates were open and nobody could see who went in or out. Second, when I got here, the only thing I found was a small paper with my name on it and a cabin number. At first I thought my parents were crazy for putting me here, but it was true that they wanted to get rid of me, and if you want to get rid of someone, what is better than a ghost camp? That's it I thought, a ghost camp. Suddenly, I was proved wrong, as the door of the cabin opened.

Henry

I stepped out of Cabin 12a and spotted the girl standing by the gates. She must be new, I thought, as I strolled over to introduce myself.
"Hi there, kid, I'm Henry," I gave the nervous-looking girl my most endearing smile. "You in my cabin? Awesome."
"Come on in, and I'll show you where you sleep."
After a moment's hesitation, the girl followed after me, heaving a gigantic bag, probably of clothes or something. I took the weight from her slight figure, and pushed the door open, gesturing that she enter. She turned in the doorway and opened her mouth to thank me, but I waved a hand and said "No problem, really. Hey," A thought occurred to me. "What's your name, by the way?"
"What we're trying to do is to write cricket bats, so that when we throw up an idea and give it a little knock, it might...travel."

"Lucy, Lucy Smith.", I answered to the handsome boy in front of me.
"Nice to meet you Lucy. I'm Henry.",he annswered.
I walked towards the bunks ,and I put my bag on the one of the high ones. Maybe this wasn't a ghost camp after all. Henry chose a low bunk and sat down.
"You're new here, right?", he asked me.
"Yes. My parents sent me here for my 14th birthday.", I told him, even though it wasn't true. I wasn't going to tell a boy I just met the story of my life.
"If you need anything, just ask me.", said he. I smiled in thank you. I didn't have any questions, I thought. When all of a sudden, one came to my mind, " Where is everyone?"

Luna-

I walked into Moon Camp. The lights around the camp were dimmed and It was kinda freaking me out. I walked into one room with 4 beds. "Hi I'm Luna. I'm new here." I said smiling, introducing myself.

Henry-

"Where is everyone?" I repeated, chuckling humourlessly. Nobody else is here, yet. The others don't come until later- this time of year, only the kids with nowhere else to go end up in the camp. That's how I came to be here, anyhow. My parents are both Interstellar Judges, so they don't really have any time for me now..." I stopped, noticing the girl looking at me with those striking wide, chocolate eyes. I gave her a crooked smile, and said apologetically, "Sorry, I guess you didn't come here to listen to me complain, huh?" I checked my watch- three thirty pm. "Hey," I smiled at the girl. "They'll be serving up lunch in the canteen in a few minutes- you feel like a walk down with me? It's only a couple of minutes' walk."

Will-

Moon Camp. Strange name for it, since there was nothing "moony" about it. Normally, it was cloudy, and even if there weren't any clouds there wouldn't be any moon to gaze. It was a forest, with large, strong trees and a high, thick canopy. It wasn't really even a camp. It was more like the wilderness. "Forest Wilderness"; that's what it should be called. I silently chuckled about my own joke. Not a good sign. I must be going nuts, with the lack of people and all.

There was almost no time that new people came, and lucky were those who met the counsellors. Even the cooks were normally absent, so we would go inside the kitchen and get whatever there was to eat- which was normally nasty, or go hunt for it ourselves. That appealed to me, since I was good with the bow and arrow that I had stolen from the souvenir shop of the camp.

So that was how I came to be that day, three ducks in hand, bow swung over my shoulder, quiver of arrows on my back. I was nearing the canteen, where I would cook my ducks for a nice meal. And I saw them both, Henry, my cabin mate, with his unmistakable winter jacket, and another girl, blond hair, wide dark eyes, who I thought must be new to camp, walking towards the canteen.

I jogged up to join them, black winter boots crushing over the snow.

"Hello there," I said, winking an eye at the girl and nodding my head to Henry. "Care for dinner?" I asked, holding up the three ducks.

Lucy
"Hello. I am Lucy. Do you two know each other?", I said politely at the boy who was looking at us. "Lucy. Nice name. I'm Will. I am Henry's cabin mate.", he replied,"So are you in for some duck?" " Where did you get that?" I asked. He smiled, and turned a bit so that I could see a bow hanging around his shoulders, "You hunt? I thought it was ilegal." He smiled at me again. His smile wasn't sweet like Henry's, it was mocking, and slightly evil. " Well there is no way I am going to eat a duck. I'm a vegetarian anyway." "Your choice."he said, and walked away. There was something about him that I didn't like. I didn't know what it was, but I didn't like Will.



P.S. Lucy looks like this.

Henry-

I watched the latest arrivals converse, in a world of my own for the moment. "Henry?" The voice cut through my thoughts, not like a knife, but a gentle nudge back to reality.
"Huh? Sorry- daydreaming again." I blushed, cursing my tendency to turn red at the slightest thing internally. "The duck sounds great, Will. Why don't you prepare it, and we can eat by Meteor Lake, yeah? I'll take the others down there now. And, Lucy? There will be plenty of fruits and stuff around the lake for you to eat, if that sounds amenable to everyone?"
There was a round of nodding, and I nodded back.
"I'll lead the way, come on." I rubbed my hands together in readiness. I noticed Lucy looking at me strangely and blushed again. I smiled shyly at her, and held out a hand to her, a little nervous though I didn't know why. "You coming? It's really spectacular at the waterside, you'll see."

Will-

Everybody went to Moon Camp for a reason. For Henry, it was his parents, who were too busy to take care of him. That was what the people were in for in general. Not me though. For me, it was as a punishment. For the bad deeds I had done. I never want to harm people when I steal from them, but I just can't help it. My hands need to use my ability for taking things with nobody noticing. It seemed natural. Every now and then, I would take things from people or places, and they wouldn't see what I had done. Like Henry's pack of gums for instance. I took it from him while he was daydreaming, took a gum from it, and then put the pack back where it had been. And he didn't notice! Not that I had anything against Henry, he was my friend and all, but I couldn't help it. Anyway, it would make a good dessert. I wasn't evil, as I knew many people thought, I was just different. And I knew that someday, someone like me would be needed.

I headed towards Meteor Lake (not that there were any meteors in it), while the others followed behind. I picked a few dry branches that the snow hadn't touched, as we would use them for firewood, and started making a pile of them next to the lake. Then I searched and found some weeds that grew in the shore and I cooked the duck on the fire with the weeds. "The bad thing about not eating in the canteen," I told them, although I knew that Henry knew already, "is that you have neither plates, nor salt, so don't expect a very good meal." I then climbed a nearby apple tree and got some apples for Lucy while she and Henry went pick some berries. When we finally got to sit down and eat, I said, "Well. Before it was just Henry and me at this time of the year. Now that we're three, I guess we should go do something, right? So who's coming with me to seek an adventure?"

I stood outside some gates that look old and rusted, why her step mother sent her here was beyond her. But she must have been crazy to send her here, this place could be the death of her.

She pulled back the hood of her hoodie, revealing her hair that was pulled back into a long ponytail with a black ribbion. her camouflage sweats covered most of her combat boots except for the acual foot parts. And finally a knife strapped to her right forearm she reached for a reassuring feel of it.

She looked at the gates her resolve hardened, she took a step back and then, with a powerful kick the gates swung open making a lot of noise, a group of teens were quick to take notice of her.

I noticed a girl walking around the camp gates. Before we could answer Will's question,I ran over to where she was standing to greet her. Once I got closer, I notisced she was wearing dark clothes. Could she be trying to hide herself?

I saw a girl darting over to me the two guys behind arming themselves instict took over. I pulled my knife and I positioned the girl between me and the bowman, I wasn't to worried about getting hit by the rock since he probably didn't have good aim. And getting within melee range would be a bad choice against me.

Will-

When I first saw her, I knew that she shouldn't be here. I felt as though I knew her, and that only made it worse. I knew she couldn't be anything good. She had straight, black hair, almost covering her eyes, which were the same color as her hair. Her clothes were just as dark, with a gray hood, and her face was pale. A bump came out of her left forearm, and I thought I saw the hilt of a dagger. She's armed! I thought. I looked at Henry, who had picked up a sharp rock and had a fist closed around it. I grabbed my bow from my shoulder and nocked an arrow. Then as one, we both ran towards the girl and Lucy. She unsheathed her knife, I pulled on my bowstring, and Henry lifted the rock. We all stood gazing at each other; but no one attacked.

I was in the middle of the three. Will could shoot me, Henry could hit me with the rock, and the girl could slice me with a dagger. I was the most vulnerable here. I could die. Then, I remembered I wasn't unarmed. I took off a pin from my hair. it was perfect. No one would notice I was armed and if the girl did any sudden movements I could hit her. I only needed her to move her hand, and I could hit her in the right spot for death
"lower your weapon." I said to the girl. She simply responded," I will, if your friends put down theirs."Good, she doesn't know I'm armed. I faced Henry and Will, "Put them down. It's okay." Why was it me that was doing all the talking? They both lowered their weapons. The girl did the same. " Now, why were you trying to kill me? What have I done to you?"
