I woke up around 4:00 Am. Everyone was still sleep. I got up to get ready for the day. I took a shower and did more hunting for fish and berries. I felt more awake after that. I was walking around the place to see Chris walking around in only a towel.

" Hey! You shouldn't be awake!" Chris yelled at me.

"Um.." I said. Before I could finish Chris got Chef.

"Get him chef!"he yelled. Chef growled and started running.

/Derick:"Okay, how was I suppose to know that they were gonna be awake?" I raised an eyebrow crossing my arms.\

I quickly flipped and ran off. After I ran off a while a thought to myself.

I think I loss him, then I heard a loud horn. I guess Chris woke them up. We all met up where there were bleachers and a stage, kinda like an auditorium, but just outside in the woods. I flopped down next to DJ feeling tired from the running.

" Dude you okay" DJ asked.

" Yes, I'm just tired." I said sore from running from chef.

"Hey, why did you randomly run out yesterday?" DJ asked. Crap he actually remembered that.

"I had to use the bathroom" I said lying. He just shrugged.

/Derick:" I can't believe I reacted so, stupidly. I usually think before I do. Also, that was a terrible lie."\

"Welcome to our brand new deluxe state of art out door theater" Chris said with an excitement." This one is a summer camp favorite: a talent contest. Each team will have 8 hours to pick there most talented campers. Those three will represent your team. Singing, dancing, juggling, everything goes, as long as it's legal." Chris said toward Duncan. What was he planning to do anyway? "The losing team will send home one camper tonight, good luck." Chris said as Courtney pretty much took charge of our team.

Katie and Sadie went first and started dancing I wanted to laugh but I held it in. Tyler wasn't doing to bad at first but then his yo yo tied him up. DJ did some sort of ribbon dance which I couldn't help but smile and watch.

"Fine, sign him up." Courtney said sounding disgusted." Next!"

"Me, I can stand on my hands for 20 minutes! Watch" Bridgette said with excitement.

"Okay, it would be cute if you were a monkey. I just don't think it's quite what were looking for, next." Courtney said rudely. Harold walked up, he gasped and before he could do anything Courtney rudely interrupted."Next!" she said as Harold sighed.

/Derick:"Look, Harold is my alliance buddy, so if were gonna work together I have to help him, besides Courtney is just now being straight up rude."\

I stood up and vouched Harold.

"Seriously, you didn't even give him a chance." I said giving her a glare.

"Look, I actually plan on winning this challenge, I'm in charge. We don't see you do anything special" Courtney insulted.

"This isn't about me, you can at least give him a chance." I said with my arms crossed.

" Like I said before, next."She said ignoring me.

"Come on Harold" I said as we both walked off to the cabins.

"Look, I'm gonna try my best to convince my team to let you have the turn you deserve." I stated.

We took sometime away from the team. I drew a little in my book and then went back with my team. I came back to see Bridgette walking on her hands and Courtney playing her violin.

Then a camera came down on her head, I chuckled a little bit, then I realised her violin was broke. Crap, when I actually thought we were gonna win this time.

"You killed my violin!" Courtney yelled at Bridgette.

"Maybe we can fix it." Bridgette said. She attempted, but it only made it worse.

Courtney then started crying Katie and Sadie escorted her to the girls cabin. "Wow, talk about instant karma." I said to Harold as he nodded in agreement.

I stood up and went to talk to the team. "Well unless anyone wants Courtney to go cry on stage, I suggest we let Harold take her place. I mean, we still haven't seen what he can do." I said as the rest of the team nodded in agreement. I sat back down to Harold.

"Thanks Derick" Harold said excited.

"No problem, like throwing fish in a barrel." Then the show was about to begin. Justin started off for the Gopher Team. He started posing getting his team a very good score.

" Give it up for the big guy, DJ" Chris said as DJ got on the stage.

He started his ribbon thing as I just stared. He was Doing good at first but then it got stuck on his foot causing him to trip. Unfortunately it didn't get us much of a score.

He sat back down with us. Okay Derick, say something nice to cheer him up.

"Hey DJ, you okay?" I askes. He just nodded.

"Hey, you did fine, if it makes you feel any better I couldn't do anything." I said. I think it made him feel better.

/Derick:"Now that I think about it, I could have did gymnastics or draw. Meh, he doesn't have to know that."\

Trent then sung a song as I looked over to see Gwen and Trent smiling at each other. Man I wish I was that bold. I think he got an 8 out of 10. Next Bridgette went up and got on her hands and started burping, um this doesn't look good. She then started throwing up on stage and people. Heather then walked on stage and pretty much did story time with Gwen's diary She started to read" I'm trying to ignore but he's just so cute" she continued. "I know it sounds cliche but I really like guys that play guitar." Heather finished as I seen Gwen run off out of embarrassment.

/Derick:"Okay, if someone read my diary out loud it would be really bad. Good thing I have my key with me."\

Next Harold went on stage and did really good beat boxing which won us the challenge. I walked toward Harold and gave him a high five.

"See I new you could do it" I said feeling good about myself.

Although I still think our team dislikes us. I went into the bass cabin. I looked down at DJ's bunk to see him sleeping happily. I started drawing a little lightl sketch of him just in case of mistake. It was a bit dark so I didn't get far so I went to sleep.
