What The Luck!?

Chapter 138 - 138. Top In Camp



"Not to mention, I did see you trying to absorb some electricity from a battery so you can control it in your body. Then you yelled, I can keep everyone around me safe." Sammy was dealing devastating blows to Lois who could barely hang on, but a fire suddenly lit within him.

'If I go down, you are coming too.' He took a deep breath and signed his death warrant. "At least I didn't practice my floating while wearing a dress and flashing your cousin." The resounding slap and vibrant red face of Sammy were a perfect pair.

"Ouch." Art flinched away knowing that Louis was feeling that slap through his rubber infused bandages.

"Are they always like this?" Jackson was worried for his safety if he spent so much time around people who acted out like this.

"Not usually, but I think this is a sibling thing since they were raised together." Jackson's face showed understanding of Asher's words. It made sense if these two were just having a sibling like argument.

"I was wearing shorts underneath my dress. But you made it sound like I had shown the world my underwear." Sammy was still in a huff but lost some of her power due to her shaky tone and embarrassed face.

"If I didn't have these bandages on I would have a handprint on my face. How would you make that up to me?" Louis was equally in a tizzy over their exchange.

"Well, we went to the sparing field today and made some points. But we plan to make some campfire cookies if you guys want to join us. Jackson here, and another girl named Laura are the other two campers I came with early will be there too. It is a good chance to chat with two people from other classes."

Luckily Asher was able to distract the two from their small argument. If he hadn't they could have ended up going all out on each other and causing a huge scene in the dining cabin.

"I almost forgot you had come to camp early. That's soooo not fair. You got to figure out all the tricks before we got here. But lucky for us," Sammy grabbed Asher's arm and refused to release him, "You're our friend and would never let us suffer." Her smile was full of temptation and ulterior motives.

Jane and Art saw this and stifled a laugh. Sammy would bleed Aser dry on the best ways to gain points. The only thing she didn't realize was that he had no reason to grind for points. He was just going to focus on training.

"Well, I can do that. You see Jane and Art are my left and right hand on the sparring fields. I could use a left and right leg too. We have taunted a lot of campers and will have a steady supply of opponents, which means a steady supply of easy points for a few days."

Jane picked up where Asher left off, "Once the less experienced people get tired or realize they need to go and train more we will be stuck with the tougher opponents. We can take on some, but that would be the time we focus on the obstacle course or even take some classes."

Art finished the thought, "But we now know Jackson here and I have a feeling he has already learned most things in the classes. So ideally we can lean on him for that knowledge and in turn share our martial arts techniques."

The three were proudly crossing their arms at their master plan. They would be at the top of the camp and even sounded like they were forming a gang to do it. "You guys have it all figured out. I didn't expect a few days extra could set you up this well." Louis was amazed, he had not considered joining up together to make an entire area their own.

"Wait, why am I involved? I just want to go in to the woods and camp while I study the plants…" Jackson wanted nothing more than this but he knew that it was not what he should be doing.

"You can do that too. We can set aside time for it. If we only do one thing all day we would go crazy. Wouldn't doing everything in camp together with friends be more fun?" Jackson heard Asher's words and had no way to disagree. His friends in the gardening club would never be caught dead at this camp, it was just not what they excelled in. But now he could have friends that did do these kinds of things.

"Alright, then we will do it together. But let's not go too heavy on the sparring stuff. I only want self defense. I won't be going after anyone for fights...well unless someone hurts my plants." Jackson let off an aura of intense hatred thinking about this. Everyone felt that if they accidentally stepped on his daises they could fall prey to his fists.

"Then self defense it is. Welcome to the team. What about you two? Want to get in on this? Laura the other camper that came with me is at the top of the obstacle course. She could give you advice next time." Asher tempted Louis more and received his instant yes.

"Then I am in too. That cliff climbing is impossible. I need help with it." Asher went a little silent hearing this.

"I...Ummm...Jackson and I might not be the best to help with that. The counselor in charge isn't a fan of us since we accidentally fell too. But I can recommend a few things and maybe get Laura to go with you to the top so that he is less likely to get angry. She should be fine with helping." The rest of them looked at Asher and Jackson with curious looks. The two sat silent until they finally built up the courage to explain what had happened. As they did their friends understood why this counselor would not enjoy personal time with them, but they could accept this as one place they wouldn't focus on. There were plenty of other point builders.
