All right! Here is the first part. Oh, and feel free to guess me, amigas, the guessing game is my favorite part.
Day one pt. One
Agent Winter stood with Chance outside their house. They had just said goodbye to Agent’s AEs, and were now wondering how to get to El Parque Encantador. Senorita Espanol hadn't said anything about it in her letter. Suddenly a van drove up. The logo on the hood (why was there a logo on the hood?) said El Parque Encantador, so Agent and Chance climbed right in.
“Hola!” said the driver. “Senorita asked me and my friend to drive you all. Peek in the back.” Agent and Chance, who had happened to climb into the passenger’s seat, looked back and waved. Luna-Starr, possibly wiser, Sunflower, David, Nyx, Alex, Menta, Dulce and Barnswallow all waved back.
“My friend’s got the others,” explained the driver when Agent cocked her head quizzically. She had been sure there were more people signed up. “Better get comfy,” he continued. “The drive’s a bit of a long one.” Agent shrugged, and did so.
She drifted in and out of sleep as they drove through the country, noticing at one point that they had been joined by another van, almost identical to the first, except it’s front license plate was a bit banged up. Eventually she jolted awake as they stopped. She looked out the window and saw that they were parked between two trees, in the middle of the woods. About thirty yards away on one side, she glimpsed a large field, and on the other, a row of seven numbered cabins.
As they all piled out of the van, they met up with Sirfire, La’Crosse, Kitten, Candy, Stargirl, Cementha, Summer, Spring, Autumn, Emekittycon k, and Kitty. They looked around, wondering what to do, until two women came out of one of the cabins.
“Hello,” said the first woman. “I am Señorita Español.” Señorita was a very tall and thin woman, with very short and straight black hair, hazel eyes, and tanned skin. “This is my assistant, Niñita,” she continued. The redheaded, freckled thirteen year old next to her hunched her shoulders.
“My name is Lia,” she hissed.
“Y-es, yes,” murmured Señorita. “Now, did I include a list in the letter of who would be in which cabin?”
“No, Senorita,” Lia said. “You didn't know who would come, so you couldn't have.”
“Ah. That makes sense.” Senorita pulled a slip of paper out of her pocket, and Lia fumbled with a small bag she had slung over her shoulder. “All right,” Senorita hummed. “First of all, I want to apoligize to anyone who didn't get roomed with the person they wanted to be roomed with. Talk to me if you have any complaints, but I will not tolerate rudeness. Cementha, Sunflower, Agent Winter, and possibly wiser in cabin one. Stargirl, La’Crosse, Sirfire, and Nyx in cabin two, Summer, Kitten, and Luna-Starr in cabin three. Dulce, Alex, David, and Chance in cabin four. Autumn, Candy, Barnswallow, and Menta in cabin five, and Kitty, Spring, and Emekittycon in cabin six. Did I get everyone?”
“Yup.” Lia had just finished handing out name tags that had been stuck in a small plastic slip, and attached to straps so they could hang them around their necks. Luna-Starr draped hers over her head, and realized that there was a small pink piece of paper folded up in the back.
“Now, if you’ll take a good look at your name tags,” began Senorita, “you’ll see that your cabin number, name, and group name is on the front. And if you take out the folded paper in the back, you’ll find the scedule.” Luna-Starr studied the schedule for today, and also noticed that there were six more days after today.
“Does everyone see the first activity?” asked Lia, waving her own pink paper in the air. Everyone nodded. “Read it with me!”
Most of the older CBers and AEs reddened a little, thinking that this was kind of a babyish thing to do, but the CAPTCHAs were overjoyed.
“Tour aand getal setld into your cabns!” they cried together.
“All right! Now follow me!” cried Senorita, turning and heading towards cabin 1.
