What The Luck!? Chapter 80
Advertisement
Asher held a piece of paper in his hands. It was a colorful orange ticket that had a number on it. The number was fifty. "You are lucky to be the first to find it. The first camper that finds it gets fifty points in addition to the one night stay in the luxury cabin. You better spend it well." Onyx was still stuck on how lucky this kid in front of him was.
"What!? He already had fifty points and he gets to sleep in the best cabin. You have to be cheating somehow." Laura was unable to fathom how Asher had gained these things. This was completely unheard of to be this lucky. Camp hadn't even really started yet.
"Well, I did tell you what my power was right? This stuff just kind of happens. I am starting to realize what it all really means. It looked like it was bad luck for me to fall yes, but it was actually really good luck because I was able to see this." Asher paused a little while thinking, "I still haven't understood the jinx part yet, I don't think of myself as having enemies so I doubt it will show its effects."
"Kid, I will never play the lottery with you unless you promise to give me half." Onyx had started to get the idea that Asher's power was related to luck. The problem was that if he ever tried to compete with him he knew that he wuld definitely lose off of this precedent.
"Sure! Just let me know. Even my friend Art says I am a good luck charm. But to be honest I am pretty sure I am the reason he seems so clumsy…"
"Even if he is clumsy having good luck is so much better. If I found a hundred dollars every time I tripped I would not care about the bruises at all." Laura was feeling an incredible amount of jealousy toward Asher, He seemed to have a much better power than hers just based on the fact that it had not caused him any problems.

"Ok well here is what I think. You have a good power for you yes. But what about the person that loses the hundred dollars. Wouldn't that be bad for them? If you are going to be the top hero I would expect you to try and find the owner of that hundred dollars and return it. With your luck, you could make it more feasible. If you kept everything for yourself that you got with your luck you would be some low class villain." Onyx was a little harsh but the view was fair.
"He wouldn't be a villain if he wasn't breaking any world laws." Laura was stuck in that part.
"I would be a villain in a way. I would be doing things I know were letting others experience pain. Any real hero would avoid that. It's not the same as a villain by technicality but I can see how it could seem that way." Asher was already understanding what Onyx was saying. Thanks to Mr. Richards he had a more open mind for moral things like this.
"Oh so you aren't saying it's law based but based on your own judgment of good character." Laura, as able to understand this much better.
"Anyways, keep moving. We should go show my sister that you found it. She is going to freak out. She is the one who hid it this morning.' Asher could see that Onyx had a mischievous smile on his face. It was one that only siblings about toeas each other would wear.
Onyx was off again with his soft foot work. Asher followed trying to improve his own as he watched for new ways that onyx would move. Laura was still struggling behind them making plenty of signs that someone had walked through. She was not the elegant type, especially because of her fast metabolism and rushing in style.

While they moved asher spent some of the time thinking about what was really valuable here at camp. The training stood out as a great way to improve oneself. However, the fact that Onyx had gotten annoyed at Laura when she was stuck on the cliff spoke volumes. 'I need to go and take some of those survival and skills classes. If I can learn enough then the obstacle course and sparring will be much easier.'
Asher was so lost in his thoughts that he didn't even realize that They had reached the camp again. He bumped in to onyx who was standing still looking around for where garnet might be. "I know you are excited to go and see my sister to show off your find, but wait until I find where she is."
After another moment Onyx saw that his sister was in one of the cabins through a window. "Follow me, she is in one of the learning rooms. It looks like our third camper is there as well."
"I wonder what Jackson decided to learn. We will have to pay points to join but I think it will be pretty worth it.' Asher wanted to get in there and start absorbing as much knowledge as possible.
"I would say he is looking at edible plants. Garnet may be our best martial artist but she is also the most k knowledgeable on the edible plants in the area. Not may peoole take her class until the end of the week so she is probably excited to have someone so eager."
Asher heard this and mentally kicked himself. 'If Jackson knows what plants he can eat he won't even need to ay points for food.'
"I feel like I am already behind and we haven't even gotten to the start of the week with all the students…" Laura said this in a defeated voice. She couldn't help but feel at a loss.
"Well I might have points, but I think the person who won out was Jackson. He hasn't started camp and can learn as much as possible in the next few days before he needs to pay points. He definitely will have an advantage when the other students get here." The two silently decided to get Jackson to spill all the knowledge he collects.
