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
