What The Luck!? Chapter 148
Advertisement
Garnet was amazed by the speed Laura was capable of when she was at full focus. This was the slow start that she often saw in those who were not sued to fighting. Laura was slow to start her speed and focus but when she had a proper driving factor she could reach a much higher realm. Laura was nearly a blur with the speed of her fingers while turning the puzzle and looking for the hidden trick to open it.
Garnet had no doubt that if Laura learned to harness this speed and focus she could beat the Asher from their first sparring match many times over. However, she still had a feeling that Asher could beat Laura now. It might just be a gut feeling, but to Garnet, it was a very important feeling to put stock in.
There was a soft wooden click and the puzzle fell apart leaving nothing but a piece of paper. Laura was breathing a little heavy from the effort and excitement she was feeling. She opened the paper and was about t reveal the number when Garbet grabbed it from her hand. "Hey! The paper is from my puzzle, what does it say!?"
Garnet held the paper knowing exactly what it said on it. She had been the one who wrote that paper when her father built the puzzles. "Oh, it just says something about you getting seventy points. Nothing too amazing. There is one in there with a hundred points as the prize." Garnet just put the paper in her pocket.
Laura jumped up ecstatic at hearing this, she had netted over a hundred points and was already rushing to the camp store to get what they would need. Lucky for her she had sen the ingredients in the pile before they had started to make things from them. She was going to grab all of them and get back there when everyone would be recovered.

Garnet headed over to the smoldering fire where Art was resting while waiting for the cookies. "You saw nothing, got it?"
"Ballons in tree houses." Art nodded while saying this, it was his agreement while he looked in to Garnet's harsh eyes.
Garnet unfolded the paper and looked at the large zero written on it. 'It's not the time for my jokes. I made this years ago and waited for some camper to get hit with it for fun, but of course, it would have ruined her improvement.' Garnet felt a little sad but also like she had just discovered something valuable. The little paper burned up leaving no evidence whatsoever.
"The first that had started to recover was Jane who suddenly jumped up confused and a little lost. "I thought you all were, and I was…" She trailed off looking at the others who were also struggling. She grabbed her throat and rushed around looking for water. Sammy was soon in the same state and they both went for some water bottles that were next to Laura and Garnet who were smiling like they were witnessing a great show.
Asher had somehow ended up laying on his back and was mumbling about how cool and nice the winter was. When he opened his eyes and saw that it hadn't switched from a magma filled landscape to a blizzard paradise he sat up confused. "I um...where is my shirt?" Asher stood feeling the jello that his legs had become. He put on his shirt and saw the water. He joined the others and watched as Art also made his way over.
"I can't believe I dolphin danced." His face scrunched up and he tried again, "I can't believe I said weird stuff." His face relaxed a little but he was still far from normal.

"I tried to tell you al. But it was too late. Everyone inhaled the smoke from rainbow mushrooms and we were all hallucinating." Jackson was still sitting on the ground since his vision was a little blurry. "The effects hit hard but are short lived. I never want to do that again."
Louis was standing holding a leaf and trying to zap it. "Yeah, never again. But I think I might need those again sometime." He had realized that he understood the lightning body super power much better. As he spoke he was able to pry the little leaf and stop it from zapping the entire thing to a char. This was much more control than he could perform before. The combination of exhausting his lightning and then practicing was well worth it.
"What did you all learn today?" Garnet had used this line many times on campers, but this was the most amused she had ever been to say it.
"That Asher isn't allowed to gather fire jumping snakes. Ugh! Fire wood." Art now realized the things he was accidentally saying.
"Oh, well if that's the reason this happened then Asher is not allowed to get fire wood without supervision." Garnet went with Art's rules and didn't see any reason not to.
"I would feel betrayed...but I just wanted to bring some mushrooms to cook. How did I know that they were evil like that?" Asher looked at everyone but Jackson again spoke up.
"You could have asked me when you got back before starting a fire. Then you could have been hallucinating while we all ate campfire cookies." His words dripped with frustration.
"That's right! The cookies should be cool any second." Art was reminded about his creation and was happy to grab them until Laura spoke up.
"We are going to throw these away. They got a full dose of the smoke from the rainbow mushrooms, but….I have all the ingredients to start over here!" Laura showed off the pile of stuff including the fire starter and some clean fire wood that she had gathered while waiting for them to recover.
"Of course, now we are wasting food, but I will get started." Art was slightly crushed but he didn't feel like having to speak like a fool for another hour or two.
"Perfect, I will watch what's going on this time and you can pay me a piece of cookie for supervising." Garnet smiled a little evilly. But it was a fair price to pay after the last incident.

The Werewolf Cheerleader
Being a cheerleader is easier than being a werewolf. Jessica Tumbleleague is a typical teenage girl who loves being a cheerleader at Moondale High. But after an encounter with a werewolf in the woods, Jessica discovers a frightening world she never thought is real. Dangerous magic, deadly fierce spirits, and other malevolent creatures. Now Jessica must fight the forces of darkness to protect her hometown while balancing her supernatural life with her high school life. But can she control the beast within herself? Note: This is a rewrite of the original with the same name. I decided to change the third-person style to first-person because I liked Jessica's voice better. She is funny and very strong. With the story only focusing on her, I can keep the mystery suspenseful and the reader can experience what Jessica is experiencing. It is a typical YA style, but it is fun to write as your main character. There are changes, but the first and second books will be similar to the third-person chapters. Let me know what you think and I hope you will enjoy this new version of the Werewolf Cheerleader. I will post the chapters every Friday in the afternoon. P.S, there is a Werewolf Cheerleader short story published in the Tales of Dungeons, All Hallows book. Titled The Werewolf Cheerleader: Castle and Ghouls. The short is also in first-person, which made me decide to change the book series into first-person. The link is below if you want to check it out. https://www.royalroad.com/amazon/B08MCS82R5
