My Story Part #3

Hey everyone I'm here to tell you my third story section.

Once I had walked back to my hole I was sure I would be th elast one to finish thier hole. But my hole was bigger than before I had left. I looked at each person in turn. Everybody said that they didn't do it. But when I looked at Zero's hole it was smaller then everybody elses. I knew who had dug my hole. Back in the wreck room I told Zero that I would teach him to read and write if he wanted me to. Since he had told me he couldn't do either and that's why people thought he was stupid. So we made a deal. He would dig part of my hole everyday and I would teach him to read and write.

The next day in the breakfast line I awoke to a horrible sight. Mr.Sir's face had swollen to the size of a canteloupe. A kid then made the wrong move by asking what had happened to his face. Mr.Sir then picked him up by the throat and slammed him into the oatmeal pot. Then he asked the kid if there was anything wrong with his face the boy then smartened up and said there wasn't anything wrong with his face.

Later on the lake everybody asked me what I knew about Mr.Sir's face. I said that I didn't know anything hoping that if I let it be than it it would just fade away. But that wasn't the case. Everytime Mr.Sir would drive the watertruck he would just poor my water into the ground and never into my cantine. Luckily, I believe Mr.Pendanski knew what he was doing. For whenever he drove the watertruck, he would fill up my cantine, let me have a long drink then fill it up again.

Then to my suprise Mr.Sir actually filled my cantine a few days later. Unfortuneatly he also took it into the truck for a few minutes. He gave it back to me and I took it back to my hole. For while I thought of what vile substance he could have put in it. So I dumped it out and didn't take a single drink of that possibly tainted water. -Stanley

The Grand Finale!! (My Story Part #5)

Here is a picture of me covered in the yellow spotted lizards. (ABOVE)

Hello everyone! It is now time for the final segment of my story.

After being at the mountain for more than a week, me and Zero decided that we were going to travel back to the camp and make our way back to society. After a long day of walking, we reached the camp. Me and Zero hid in 2 of the holes until all of the campers were done for the day. We then moved closer to the hole that I had originally found the gold tube in. Once there, we started to dig around in case there was other treasure to be found. We once again digged and digged and digged. But this time we found something. An object was sticking out of the ground. I told Zero about how it seemed to resemble a chest. I tried to pull it out, but the thing wouldn't budge. I tried to dig around it but I feared the wall would collapse. So instead I dug under it to see if I could ply it out from underneath. I wiggled the shovel end up down and to the sides until poof the chest/suitcase came free. But some of the dirt had also caved in. I worried if it had been a big or a small one. But when i reached down and dug in the dirt, I found that there was only a minor cave in. Now pulling the briefcase out of the hole, I handed the briefcase to Zero. Then out of nowhere a flashlight beam hit me straght in the face. " Thank-you," said the Warden " You boys have been a good help."

The Warden and the counselors had caught us red-handed. They were about to take the briefcase from Zero when the light illuminated a frightening sight. Both me and Zero were covered in yellow spotted lizards!!!!!!! The counselors were worried if they came to close they would be bitten. So both them and the Warden kept their distance. So there we stood, for hours, upon hours, upon hours. Until daylight started to force the lizards back down into the hole from where they came. The warden and the counselors during the night had been trying to figure out a cover story for his death. Apparently the day before we had returned to camp a lawyer had came to collect Stanley. For he had been found innocent after an investigation of the crime. After a bit more of waiting Mr.Pendanski said that it was getting close to 4:30 and that the campers were going to wake up soon. The Warden told all the counselors to return to their groups and instruct the campers that would not have to dig any hole as long as they stayed quiet, and that if they did they would be severely punished.

After much more waiting I heard the sound of approaching cars, I then heard the cars stop and the door's open and shut. Later on I saw Mr.Pendanski followed by two strangers. the first one was a large man wearing a bussiness suit and a cowboy hat, the second one was a short women holding a briefcase. They both stopped and stared at us when they saw we were covered in the lizards. "What in tarnation?" the tall man said. The Warden tried to give a phony story about how me and Zero had stolen the briefcase from her cabin. I tried to protest but my "lawyer" said it was best that I didn't say anything until we had talked in private. Then the lawyer continued to argue with the Warden about why she hadn't released me when she came yesterday. The Warden led that I had been delirious and hallucinating for the last few days. (Obviously to cover up my absence.) I tried to get out of the hole once the lizards had traveled back into the hole. I climbed out mostly using my arms so as not to disturb the lizards. Then I helped Zero to his feat after the lizards had ran away from him. "Thank God!!" The Warden said. ( even though she didn't really care) Then she started to reach for the suitcase that Zero was still holding but Zero held it away from her and told her that she can't have have it for it was mine. He then held it up and pointed to the big black letters that read STANLEY YELNATS!!!!!!!!!

They walked back to camp. Apparentley the tall man was the Texas Attorney General and the lady was my lawyer Ms.Morengo. Once again the Warden treid to lie her way to the suitcase. "I didn't say that he stole the suitcase from my cabin but that he put my things in it." " That wasn't hat you said earlier." replied Ms.Morengo. The Warden then demanded that I open the suitcase, but Ms.Morengo said that I shouldn't open it. I listened to Ms.Morengo and didn't open the case. Mr.Sir walked over with my clothes and backpack. Ms.Morengo then hurried me away, but I stopped and turned to Zero. He gave me a thumbs up. I said that I wouldn't leave him behind. So Ms. Morengo asked for his file. (But in their haste to not reveal that they had gone missing they had deleted his file;0) The Warden just stared at her. Ms.Morengo said it again, losing patience. This time the Warden asked Mr.Pendanski to get her the file, and this time it was his turn to stare at her blankly. She then shouted a him to get her the file. He went inside and then came back out saying that it had apparently become misplaced. When the Attorney General heard of this he was outraged, then with much assurences top Ms.Morengo he went inside to call his office to find Zero's file. Just then X-Ray, Squid, Armpit, Magnet, ZigZag and Twitch (Zero's replacement after he had ran away) came out to greet us and say goodbye. After using the phone, the man walked out and said that his office as well was having a hard time finding his file. Ms.Morengo then told Zero that he was coming with us for the Warden had no juristiction over him.

In the car Ms.Morengo told us about how I was found innocent. For it was at 3:15 the shoes were stolen but Derrick Dune (the bully) told them how I had been in the wash room at 3:20 getting my notebook out of the toilet. Then she went to tell us about how my dad had invented a way to get rid of foot odour.Later on when we opened the case, we found tons of jewels and a stack of papers. But sadly, the jewels were of poor quality and only were worth a few thousand dollars. The papers however were worth loads, and in the end me and Zero both recieved just under a million dollars. -Stanley

My Story Part #4

This is my fourth installment of my story. I hope you enjoy it!

The next day was ZigZag's birthday. He got somewhat special treatment for it, he got to sleep in, cut in front of the breakfast line and even got Mr.Sir to give him an extra orange juice carton. Later on while Zero was digging my hole(see my last post;>) the guys started to tease me about how Zero was digging my hole. ZigZag then started to get very aggresive. He started to beg me to let him dig my hole, however he then started to say "eat my cookie" and shopved it towards me. Apparently I did the wrong thing when I pushed the cookie out of the way. ZigZag started to shout don't push me and started to push me himself. A few seconds later Mr.Pendanski walked over and told me to hit him back and to teach him a lesson. I took a weak swing at him but missed (I didn't really want to hurt him). In retaliation ZigZag started to pummel me with his fists on my head and arms. All I could do was sit and hope that he would stop soon. Then out of no where ZigZag tops hitting me. I look up to find Zero holding him by the throat, and strangling him. Mr.Pendanski then tells Zero to let go, but when Zero didn't listen. Mr.Pendanski fired his pistol. All of the other counselors came running with there own pistols drawn.

The Warden also came. The counselors lowered their guns once they saw that everyone was calmed down. The Warden asked what had happened. Mr.Pendanski told her that there was a riot and that Zero had almost strangled ZigZag. X-Ray explained that it was justy the sun was making ZigZag's blood boil. ZigZag then also commented how I didn't dig all of my holes (since Zero dug some of mine so that I could teach him how to read.see earlier post). The Warden became furious and asked why Zero was digging part of my hole. I explained to her how I was teaching Zero to read and write. She started to ask Zero what he had been learning.she then started to ask what c-a-t spelled, as well as f-a-t and hat. However when zero didn't get it right. Then she started to tease and taunt Zero about how stupid he was. That was when Zero ran away. It was afterMr.Pendanski said that I was better off trying to teach a shovel how to read because it had more brains, and handed Zero's shovel back to him. Zero then swung it like a baseball bat and smashed the metal blade against the side of Mr.Pendanski's head. Then bolted out towards the lake.

Later on, I kept wondering about Zero, hoping he was okay. The guilt kept growing and growing inside of me until I had to do something. So while Mr.Sir was filling up the canteens I hopped into the truck and tried to drive off. Unfortunatley I drove straight in to a hole. I then quickly jumped out and ran away thinking I should have filled my canteen before I tried to steal the truck. I walked for hours until I found a boat half buried in the sand. I approached the boat warily, being cautious of any yellow spotted lizards. Suprisingly, I found Zero at the boat. He asked if I had any water with me, but when I answered I didn't he offered me some "sploosh". A sort of drink made from old fruit. Probably peachs or something. We started to make our way towards to a mountain off in the distance.

When we arrived there was only us and a long trek uip th e mountain. We climbed and we climbed and we climbed. I accidentaly fell while we where climbing. We landed in a muddy gulch. At first I thought I would die there. There was no water, no food and no shelter. Then I thought
" Hey! Wait a second. You need water to make mud!" So I made my way to the wetest part of the gulch and began to dig. I soon had a hole the length of my arm that immediatly began to fill with water. In the morning I thought of trying to find the shovel I had dropped, but I didn't want to leave Zero alone. But then yet again Zero suprised me. He confessed to have been the one who stole the shoes(Clyde Livingston's Shoes) in the first place.- Stanley

Stanley's Second Post

Hey everyone! How was Stanley's second post??-Drake

My Story Part #2

It' Me Stanley Yelnats everybody!!! I'm back and redy to tell the second part of my story! Awesome!!

It's the second day and the second hole. I'm digging around and I find something. Earlier I was told that if I found anyting I would get the day off. I pick the rock up and find that it's a fossil. I look closer at it and find that there is a fish imprinted on the back. Later when the water truck came around I showed it to Mr.Pendanksi. He sayed he'd take a look at it, but he never came back. I was really angry at the fact that I did find something, but they didn't give me the day off. X-Ray came over a short while later and asked me to give the next thing that I found, because he had been there a year and never found anything, while I had only been there a couple of days. It seemed fair enough considering he seemed to be the leader of the group. But for some reason I couldn't figure out why he was. Out of the group he was the second shortest and I was the biggest, and disregarding those facts everyone treated him as if he was the highest authority in the camp.(even though the warden really was)

The next week went by, I was digging my hole when I saw something glint in the dirt pile. I tossed the dirt out of the way and ran my fingers through it. I picked up a small tube that was a gold colour as if it was made of gold.There was an engraving in the end of it. It had an outline of a heart with the initials KB. I thought this was my break but then I remembered my promise to X-Ray. ZigZag noticed I was holding something in my hand. He asked what it was, instead of telling him I went straight to X-Ray. X-Ray took it and looked at it, some of the other guys thought it was an old shotgun shell. I didn't mention the engraving though I thought they wouldn't notice it. After X-Ray looked at it, he said he was going to turn it in to "MOM" (Mr.Pendanksi's Knickname). But I quickly stopped him, I told him that instead of turning it in right now that he should turn it in first thing tommorrow as to save the whole day instead of just an hour this afternoon. He thought that was a good idea and followed my advice.

The next morning when the water truck came X-Ray showed Mr.Pendanski the gold tube. He said that the warden would like what he found. Shortly later Mr.Pendanski returned with the Warden. She told Mr.Pendanski to refill our canteens and move us over to X-rays hole, where we would make it bigger, much bigger. After the next few days we dug around X-Rays hole until it merged with several other of the holes.

Later on there was an accident. An accident concerning a bag of sunflower seeds and my hole. During a time when the water truck had come, Magnet had grabbed one of Mr.Sir's bags of sunflower seeds. He threw them from person to person, hole to hole. Until it was trown to me. I missed the catch and the sack spilled all over the floor of my hole. And just when I thought it couldn't get any worse. Mr.Sir returned in the water truck. He saw the sunflower seed bag in my hole and asked me "What happenned to all of my sunflower seeds?". I told him that I was the one had stolen and eaten them (to save the others from getting in trouble). He took me to the warden and told her about what had happened. In response she asked me to bring out a special makeup case. As she put on some nail polish she told her secret ingrediant to making it, and that ingrediant is rattlesnake venom. Mr.Sir continued to go on about his sunflower seeds and how he thought that the others were in on the stealing of the seeds. The warden seemed to not care for his sunflower seeds. For she hit him across the face and said " I liked you more when you used to smoke. I then had to return to my hole. On foot. -Stanley

My Story Part #1

Hi!!!!I'm now ready to start posting my story of Camp Green Lake.Yeah!!
To start off I will need to tell you why I was sent to Camp Green Lake.
The reason was that I supposedly stole some shoes from the homeless center. But these were no ordinary shoes, these shoes belonged to Clyde Livingston a famous baseball player.They were going to be auctioned to raise money for the homeless. In reality though I didn't actually steal the shoes. I was walking under an overpass and they fell on my head. So now that you know how I ended up in Camp Green Lake, let's get to where I am in Camp Green Lake.

First off let me tell you one thing,there is nothing green nor is there a lake at camp green lake. There's just dirt, dirt and more dirt. When I arrived I was introduced to the people Iwould be working with. There was Mr.Sir (an odd name don't you think) Mr.Pendanski (my counselor) and the Warden (whom I did not meet in person but was told ran the camp). Afterwards I was introduced to the other boys that were in my group. They're names were Rex, Alan, Jose, Theodore and Ricky. However they prefered certain knicknames. Rex was X-ray, Alan is Squid, Jose is Magnet, Theodore is Armpit and Ricky is ZigZag. OH!!! How could I forget???There's my best friend Zero. Who at first everyone thought he was very stupid(since he couldn't read or write) but when he did math he was the difference. The next day I had to dig my first hole, it was extremely hard, the first time I tried to get the shovel in the ground, it just bounced away. So once again I found a crack and put all of my weight on the shovel, this time the dirt popped right out. "Only 1 million more times to go." I thought outloud. Stanley
