Chapter One: Joy of Joys

Day One. Part One.

Axel banged his head on the tinted window of the limousine. Riku blinked as though he'd been living in the dark for several days and someone had lit up a fairground right in front of him. Demyx, who had probably been snorting sugar again, bounced happily in his seat, grinning manically, and Larxene merely sniffed.

"We're here!" Demyx squealed, causing Riku to hiss in pain as one of the blonde's hands flew up and smacked him full in the face in his excitement. Riku, rubbing the sore part of his face where Demyx had smacked him, leaned forward in his seat and spoke to the chauffeur, "How long are we here for again?"

The chauffeur, who's name tag read 'Jeffery', turned his gaze so he could see them though the spotless rear-view mirror, "About a week; or as long as it takes," he sneered evilly. You could almost see the 'I-R-EVIL' glint in his eyes and the fluffy white cat. (It was more likely, however, that someone had been watching a little too much James Bond).

Axel banged his head on the window again. Larxene sniffed contemptuously, turning her head away from the vaguely interesting red-head, "Why did I have to come? I didn't do anything!"

'Jeffery' shot her a sharp look, which she shot right back making him cower in his seat in a complete character change. "A-all right now… I-I'm just doing my job!" He said, holding his hands up defensively.

Larxene rolled her eyes (probably in disappointment of not getting a proper retort that could start a fight) and turned back to look out of the window, a look of mild disgust forming on her face.

Demyx was still bouncing in his seat like there was no tomorrow. He waved happily, slapping Riku in the face again, as a cheerful face appeared at Axel's window, making the red-head recoil slightly. The said cheerful person waved extremely enthusiastically, the merry grin permanently glued to her face like one of those scary clowns they have at fairs. Axel banged his head on the window a third time as the scary-clown-person-thing signaled, enthusiastically, for them to get out of the car. Demyx squealed and got out, very nearly knocking Larxene out as he hurriedly clambered over her. Larxene glared maliciously at the back of his head.

"All right, get out n-" 'Jeffery' started to say, but when Larxene turned to look at him he stopped abruptly: it wasn't nice to be on the receiving end of one of her death glares.

Axel, who appeared to have had enough, yanked his door open and got out. He leant against the limo, which was causing a lot of curious looks to be shot in their direction, and pulled out a cigarette from his pocket. He popped it into his mouth and was about to light it when another worker yanked it out of his mouth.

"No smoking here." He said, waggling a fat finger at Axel as if he were a of three-year-old. Axel glared at him and was about to yell something back when Riku opened the door, knocking him off balance. He smacked into the worker who fell into what was, unfortunately, a rather muddy puddle. Axel smirked and yanked his cigarette triumphantly back off the helpless worker before he could get up.

Demyx bounded over to them as Larxene, unwillingly, got out of the limo. "I can't believe they made us come here!" She said, glaring at the others and telepathically telling them that they were going to pay for this, in an extremely painful way.

"Hey. It's not just our fault you know! I bet you did something to!" Riku retorted, nodding at her as if to say 'just try and prove me wrong, bitch'.

Larxene glared at him, and then said, "Well, Axel set fire to your chair in the recording studio because you were pissing him off. Then Demyx tried to put it out by throwing the water dispenser over the flames but he missed and the water went all over the equipment, and our manager. As you should well know by now at least, neither electronics, nor our manager, go well with water."

Riku smirked, unfazed, "But you were the one who 'accidentally' knocked Dem!"

Demyx, who was looking slightly perplexed, mumbled, "I thought we were supposed to be punished for that?"

Larxene rolled her eyes and smacked him on the side of his head, "This is the punishment, you stupid boy!"

Demyx's mouth formed a round 'o' of realisation before he said, "But this is gonna be fun!" He gestured wildly around at the surroundings, which - to be honest - weren't very nice at all, unless, perhaps, bleak, muddy countryside and loud banners were your idea of heaven. The bright colours glowered at them and the scary-clown-workers were so happy it was almost intimidating. Pre-teens were helping the workers enthusiastically; most of the ones that looked near enough to their age were standing around looking bored and disbelieving at their bad luck, just like they were.

"Demyx, your idea of fun is seeing how many egg rolls you can shove in your pie-hole at once," Larxene said, raising an eyebrow.

Demyx, who looked slightly offended, whined. "But egg rolls are so nice! Everyone loves them!"

"Our manager doesn't," Riku pointed out.

The dirty blonde frowned before muttering, "What a moron."

Riku laughed at this, Larxene smirked and muttered something about the feeling being mutual, even Axel cracked a grin.

Demyx stared at the red-head, "Wow, Axel, you're almost looking happy!"

Axel frowned at him, retorting, "Am not."

"Are too!" Demyx yelled childishly.

"Am not!" Axel said folding his arms across his chest.

"Are t-hey!" Larxene slapped the back of Demyx's head, hard, thus ending the childish argument.

Axel had been acting really moody lately. He'd get pissed off at the slightest thing and then he'd set something on fire. That was the only way he could calm down again. So, that's partly why they'd ended up in a shitty summer camp. What cahoots. Not only did they have to spend time in a shitty summer camp, but the said shitty summer camp was right in the other side of the god damn country. Their manager had said it would be 'good for them to get away from where they lived'. Maybe there would be less chance of being recognised here. By the looks of things so far, most of these people didn't look like the type to be 'in' on the new 'hip' music. And, alas, they wouldn't be able to even practice their music, not that they would particularly want to. That's right, because, you see, Axel, Riku, Larxene and Demyx made up the band called 'The Orgy'. Lord knows, why such a ridiculous name had been chosen. It would just make the whole world think that they were sex-mad maniacs and, therefore, as they were famous they would inspire all the small children that listened to them obsessively and wanted to be 'just like them' when they grew up to follow in their footsteps. They'd been together for just over two years now, and they needed a 'holiday' or, in other words, they'd pissed off their manager. So they got shipped off to a lovely summer camp.

Oh. The joy.

"Can you all put these on please?" It was more of an instruction than a question. They stared down at the fluorescent yellow/orange/green t-shirts in disgust. They were all printed with the words 'Happy Camper' on the front and the back. Of course, Demyx was the only one stupid enough to actually put his on. But, as Larxene stated, it was certainly true in his case.

As soon as the scary-clown-person-worker-thing had gone they quickly 'lost' the shirts. Riku actually made Demyx take his off by saying that if he wore it he would never be able to eat egg rolls again. The sad thing is; it actually worked.

Five minutes, a group of screaming fan girls (and boys) and a posse of chavs later, they found their cabin. They stopped and stared, open-mouthed. A damp, dank, dirty log cabin would be their new… home? For the next however-long-it-took.

Larxene sniffed disapprovingly, then made them follow her inside.

The first thing Riku did - being the metro sexual man - cough, pansy - he truly is, was to run into the shower room. He screamed and ran back out. "Do you realise that we have to SHARE SHOWERS!"

Axel rolled his eyes in annoyance, Larxene smacked her forehead with the palm of her hand and Demyx giggled.

"As in, go in at the same time?" The, male, blonde said, still giggling.

Larxene slapped the back of his head, "No, you IDIOT! Riku means he's a rich, sissy little fruit that has never had to use a shower that other people use at well."

Riku stared open-mouthed, seeming slightly hurt, at Larxene who shot him a death glare, and Demyx - predictably - giggled nervously.

Axel smirked slightly, dumping his bag on the nearest bed. "Don't worry Riku. We're not here for long. Soon we'll be going to a place with no showers at all."

Riku gave Axel a look of pure horror before scowling and stomping out of the room in a little, girly tantrum. Man, they had really been spoilt over the past two years.

Larxene turned to Axel, looking at him suspiciously, "Are you serious?"

Axel nodded, "We're going kayaking. We only have tonight here, then we go in the morning."

Larxene, who still seemed unconvinced, asked him how he knew.

Axel pointed to the sign that was on the back of the door that any idiot could have noticed. It read:

Your kayaking course will commence tomorrow. You will meet your group leaders who will look after you for the duration on the course and will take a mini bus to your station. Enjoy your stay, happy campers!

Larxene wrinkled her nose in disgust, "Why do they call us 'Happy Campers'? Do we look happy? Or camp for that matter."

Axel shook his head, shrugged and went after Riku. Larxene rolled her eyes, again, and then turned to Demyx, smirking slightly, "Well, it looks like it's just… you and me."

Demyx laughed a rather nervous and high-pitched laugh and sidled out of the room. Larxene raised her eyebrows, shaking her head at his behaviour. She wandered off in the direction of the shower, wondering if they really would have to spend a whole week without a shower.

"Why are you so bothered about the whole 'one shower between the four of us' thing anyway?" The red-head inquired, sitting down on a rickety bed next to the silvery-haired boy.

Riku turned to him, looking genuinely shocked, before grinning, "Because Demyx will probably have broken the shower by the time we get back and this hair doesn't look like this naturally, you know."

Axel smirked as the platinum blonde boy flicked his hair to show just how 'fantastic' it really was. "So modest." he mocked sarcastically.

"I do try."

Axel laughed, and laid down on the bed. "Man, I'm bushed; I could sleep for a week."

- -page-break- -

"Oh my god! Look! A signpost! We're nearly there! Ahh! This is going to be so good! I can just tell we're going to make new friends and find adventure and everyone will be really really happy, just like it says in the manual!" the brunette's eyes were strangely bright and the constant bouncing he was doing in his seat didn't seem to be taking any energy out of him in the slightly, which was rather unfortunate for the other passengers in the car.

"Hey Roxas! It's a laurel tree! They used the leaves of them in Roman times to make these wreath things that important people wore and - Roxas? Roxaaasss! Listen to meee!"

The said blonde turned his attention to his twin with a blank expression, "No."

Sora pouted, "But Roxie!"

"No."

"Roxas, friends listen to each other!" he began tugging on the blonde's right sleeve insistently.

Roxas scowled at him, he paused as though he was contemplating what Sora had said, "No."

"You're not being a very nice brother, Roxas. Maybe I'll disown you and get someone else to be my twin brother. Yeah, I'll get a replacement for you," he said tapping Roxas' nose and cackling in a way that made him either look quite insane or slightly deluded. Though, when you got to know him better you'd realise the truth: he was both.

Roxas slapped Sora's hand away from his face, "Sora. It is not possible for you to disown me. Unfortunately, I will always be your twin because those two idiots," he indicated their parents sitting in the front of the car, "decided to get together and have a good old sha-"

"Roxas," his father cut across him in a warning tone. You didn't argue when he used That Voice.

"Roxas, dear. Do listen to your brother. You know how much he likes talking to you," his mother said timidly, looking at him through the rear view mirror.

Sora looked at him hopefully, his eyes sparkling.

Roxas rolled his eyes in defeat, "Fine."

Sora made a strange noise that sounded like a cross between a hiccup and a squeal and waved his arms around, batting Roxas in the face.

"Look, Roxas! I can see it now! We're here! This is so cool, I love it here Roxas."

Roxas tuned his brother's voice out; knowing that if he grunted in agreement every few minutes Sora wouldn't notice a thing. He looked out of the window and practically groaned in disgust. The harshly bright colours glared down at him, seeming a hundred times worse than they had had the previous year. And every other year for that matter.

Maybe it was because he hadn't been in such a foul mood on his way to "Camp Adventure" every other year. It could also be the fact that his best friend Hayner wasn't going to be there this year. His parents had, forcefully, placed him in summer school when the grades from his finals had come out. Roxas had found it hilarious at the time, but right now: he was definitely not laughing.

He scowled again as he saw a sea of people wearing the usual fluorescent bibs that read "Happy Camper". He watched an instructor tapping on the window of a limo and raised his eyebrows, wondering who on Earth was stupid enough to turn up in a car that would almost definitely get keyed. Whoever it was must be completely and utterly insane. Speaking of which…

Roxas turned his head to look at Sora who had clambered out of the car and was now talking to a boy with dirty blonde hair and went by the name of Tidus.

The blonde's scowl softened as he spotted an auburn-haired girl jumping up and down and waving at him. He muttered a goodbye to his parents who chorused back, "Goodbye, hunny. We love you." and climbed out of the car.

He almost smiled as she walked up to him and hugged him warmly.

"God, Roxas! I hardly recognised you at first, you've changed so much!"

Roxas grinned lopsidedly, rubbing the back of his head in embarrassment, "Uh, thanks, Kairi. I think," he blinked at her for a bit, she looked almost exactly the same as when he last saw her except maybe a little older perhaps and more, well, developed, "You, err, haven't changed much."

"Nope," she latched on to his arm and began tugging him away, grinning, "Come on, let's go before you get given a bib. I know that you're a happy camper, but you don't really want to proclaim it to the rest of the world."

"Damn. They wouldn't really make us wear them now, would they? I mean, we're practically adults. We're just at a shitty camp because our parents are evil, sadistic people who want rid of us for some of summer vacation." He said, almost in a monotone.

"Pssh. Of course they would. Look." She pointed to a group of workers forcing the ugly garments onto a group of poor souls.

"Damn. You're right," Roxas frowned, "I hate it when you're right."

Kairi snorted and laughed shortly, "That's because I'm always right."

"Exactly." He concluded.

He grinned at her as she shook her head in amusement. In the distance he could see some of the other 'regulars', the people that were forced to come almost every year. Camp Adventure was all about making new friends, and Roxas had certainly done that. And right now, he couldn't wait to see them again. After all, it's had been a while.
