Getting Settled


OP - The Voice by Celtic Woman

Gloriosa was holding a sack that had cards inside, handing it to the various boys innthe crowd.

"Sweet! Garnet, my birthstone!" Dustin said with a smirk, holding a card that had an oval-shaped red gem on it.

"Mine too." Salazar said as he wallked to Dustin, holding a card with a matching gem. "Guess that means we're bunkin'."

"Aw Hell to the yeah, brotha!" Dustin said enthusiastically as the the two shared a high-five.

Meanwhile, Timber was doing the same with the girls as Pinkie fished out a card that a rectangular-shaped gem upon it. "Yay!" she yelped happily, "I'm in the Emerald Tent!" she exclaimed, hopping off as Rarity took out her own card, seeing the exact same gem upon it.

"Ooh, me too!" Rarity noted, walking after the puffy haired girl.

"Aquamarine," Applejack realized upon viewing the round gem on her card.

"Me too!" Rainbow replied, jumping in to show her the matching card of her own.

"I got Amethyst," Fluttershy noted, looking at the purple gem and then seeing DJ Pon-3 with the matching card, as she shot her a thumbs-up.

"Ooh, Rose Quartz." Adagio said as Pixel walked with a matching card, making Adagio smirk.

"Citrine?" Sonata asked as Aria had the same card. "YAY! WE'RE ROOMIES!" Sonata grabbed Aria in a tight hug, making Aria roll her eyes in mild annoyance.

"We share a place together back home!" Aria saidnwith a deadpan look to Sonata.

"Sapphire." Sunset said upon viewing her card.

"Me too!" Twilight's added, catching Sunset's attention as she looked over to see her with the matching card of the blue gem, "I mean, I'm assuming I am," she corrected, adjusting her glasses, "Heh, heh…" she chuckled, "Technically, sapphires aren't just blue, they can be pink, purple, yellow..." she listed off, not noticing the camp guide walking over to her.

"Yeah, but they're mostly blue." Timber said as he walks to her. "That's why they're named after the Latin word sapphirus. That means "blue".

"I know." Twilight replied. But did you know that sapphires are just rubies without chromium?"

"No. But did you know that Sapphire Tent is the best one?" Tinper asked.

"No. Why's that?" Twilight responds with confusion.

"Because you're in it." Timber replied with a cheeky grin, wiggling his eyebrows up and down in a flirtatious manner,

Dustin and Salazar looks to the two with knowing smirks.

"Now this time, Twi's got herself a catch." Dustin said with a nudge to Salazar. But ook notice of a pair of green eyes hidden within the trees, looking to Twilight before vanishing. "Holy crap! Did you see that?"

"See what?" Salazar asked with a raised eyebrow as he looks to the trees. "I don't see anything.

"I just saw a pair of green peepers within the trees!" Dustin said to Salazar. "You didn't see that?"

"No." Salazar replied with a shake of his head. "It's probably one of the animals lurking around.

"With glowimg green eyes?!" Dustin asked with a credulous expression. "What freaking animal has green glowing eyes?!"

"Is everything ok, fellas?" Gloriosa asked, making the two look to her.

"Oh, my bud here is probably just tripping over seeing an animal." Salazar motions to Dustin, but he sees that said boy was blushing a bit. "Uh... dude?"

Dustin said nothing as he looked to Gloriosa with a blush before blinking and shaking his head. "Huh? You say something Sal?"

"You ok?" Salazar asked with confusion. "What was that?"

"What was what?" Dustin she'd with a shrug and a perplexed look.

"You were a little red just a second ago and staring off into space." Salazar said, then looks to Gloriosa, then back to Dustin. He then had a look of realization on his face. "Dude!" Salazar then had a smirk. "Are you seriously hit..." Dustin punches Salazar in the gut in response, making him groan in pain.

"Whoops! Eheheh, sorry bro, you had a bug on ya!" Dustin said to Salazar before looking to Gloriosa. "Excuse me, I'm gonna go get my things."

And with that, Dustin walks off while Gloriosa looks to him with a confused look.

"What the Hell man...?" Salazar groaned in slight discomfort as he rubbed his gut. "Damn, for a skinny dude you pack a punch."

"Do you want me to take you to the nurse's office?" Gloriosa asked with midl concern.

"Nah, I'm good." Salazar said with a disnissive wave of his hand. "I've taken worse than this."


"Okay, everyone," Gloriosa said to the campers "Go get settled in," she advised, "We'll be meeting at the docks in fifteen minutes to go over some camp safety rules!" Gloriosa checked the sheet upon her clipboard, not hearing the sound of an approaching car, "Lemme know if you need anything!" she yelled to Timber.

All of a sudden, the sound of a door opening caught her attention as she looked over to see a well-dressed man with combed and gelled black hair, and brown skin as he trotted over from his limousine to the camp director, who frowned deeply.

"I need somethin'," the man stated with a snooty expression on his face as Gloriosa dropped her clipboard, walking over to him, while the others watched on nervously.

"Filthy Rich!" she said, trying to feign an excited expression as she put her left arm around his right one, "So nice to see you," she grumbled.

Gloriosa wansn't the only one glaring at the man, Dustin too was glaring daggers at the guy. 'Don't know who this dicksstain is, but I already don't like him!'

"What are you doing here?!" Gloriosa whispered angrily in question, placing her hands at her hips as he adjusted the cuffs to his suit, "Camp is just getting started!" she mentioned to him.

"Just takin' in the scenery, Gloriosa Daisy," he replied while turning to face her, seeing her expression of suspicion. "It's so... hmm... relaxin'," he told her with a chuckle.

Dustin grabbed a stick before snapping it in half, catching the attention of the two.

"Oh, don't mind me. Just picking up a few sticks for the fire." Dustin said before picking up another while looking to Filthy Rich. "Gotta get careful though, wouldn't want them up in certain places." Dustin emphasized this by forming his index and thumb into a ring-shape before placing it on the tip of the stick and sliding itnhalfway down the base. "If you catch my drift, good sir."

"Ooooohh.." Salazar, Flash, and DJ PON-3 muttered in slight shock as Filthy Rich glared at Dustin.

"Oh boy." Sunset uttered in concern.

"Beg your pardon, son?" Filthy Rich asked in mild anger. "I'm a little deaf in this ear! Care to speak up?"

"You sure it ain't a bug buzzing nearby?" Dustin retorted with a roll of his eyes. "Or maybe you have an earwig jammined up in there. I hear those little buggers have a nasty habit of crawling up people ears. But in sure you're plenty set up to fix that." Filthy Rich was slowly losing his cool.

"What is he doing?!" Rarity whispered to her friends in shock and disbelief.

"Dunno!" Sonata ripped in a whisper. "But it looks like he's really pushing that guy's buttons!"

"Ok, ok. Let's not get too riled up here." Gloriosa said awkwardly, hoping things don't go out of hand.

Meanwhile, the pair of green glowing peepers appeared and were looking at Filthy Rich. Suddenly, with audible snort, a cloud of yellow dust flew towards him.

"Now see here you little..." Filthy Rich growled before the cloud of yellow dust hits him, making him having a sneezing fit.

"Well, you can look around when camp is over!" Gloriosa said to Filthy Rich angrily, gesturing him to leave. "Now, if you don't mind…"

"Fine… I need some antihistamines anyway!" Filthy Rich agreed, still sneezing up a storm before hopping into his limo and driving of.

"Heheh. Looks like Boss Hog ain't much of an outdoorsman." Dustin said with a smirk.

"What was that?!" Allister said as he, Luna, and Celestia approached him. "Are you trying to get yourself into trouble?!"

"Hey, I was sticking up for Gloriosa here!" Dustin said in defense. "It's obvious she doesn't like that pompous dickhead! And honestly, I don't blame her!"

"I appreciate it," Gloriosa said as shebwalked to him. "But just leave him to me from now on. Filthy Rich is, uh, an alumni of the camp. He likes to check on his old stomping grounds every now and again."

"Then why was he asking for something?" Duatin asked with a concerned look toward her. "Honeslty he came here for something. And I think I know what that something is."

"Well... enough about him." Gloriosa reassured as she waved her hand. "Just go your tent. and put away your things" she advised, but then she noticed a pair of glowing green eyes from withing the trees. "Uh... I'm sorry, I've got something to take care of real quick!"

Gloriosa darted off, making Dustin and the three faculty members look onnwith perplexed expressions.


Deep in the forest, Gloriosa was wading through the underbrush with a scowl on her face.

"Pendragon!" Gloriosa called out. "I know you're out here!"

Suddenly, the sound of heavy footsteps was heard. And before her appeared what looked a dragon composed of plant matter.

"You called for me, Gloriosa?" The creature named Pendragon asked, bowing his head as if her were infront of royalty.

"Pendragon, what did I say about stalking the campers?!" Gloriosa declared in annoyance. "We had this discussion just yesterday!"

"Aye! We did!" Pendragon said woth a nod. "But one particular student caught my interest! And quite frankly, I do not trust him!"

Gloriosa raised an eyebrow upon hearing that. "And which one are you talking about, Pendragon?"

"The red-haired gnave clad in gray?! The one with the unique wristwatch on his wrist?" Pendragon implied, earning a confused look.

"Red_haired knave?" Gloriosa asked.

"He's talking about the guy named Dustin Miller." Timber said as he apporached the two. "The guy who talked smack to Filthy Rich?"

"Oh him?" Gloriosa said before looking to Pendragon. "What about him has you so upset?"

"Have you failed to notice that watch the boy wields" Pendragon asked, further fueling Gloriosa's confusion. "Did you not find ianything... peculiar on it?"

"Juat what are you trying yo imply, Pendragon?!" Gloriosa asked with more annoyance. "Stop being cryptic and just give me a straight answer already!"

"Glori, I'll handle this from here." Timber said with a reassuring look to Gloriosa. With a sigh, she casts another look to Pendragon.

"We'll continue this talk later!" Gloriosa declared before walking out and back to among.

Timber then looks to Pendragon, a knowing look visible on his face. "Alright Pen! Care to explain that little "weclome" you gave to Fikthy Rich earlier?"

"That vermin has overstayed his welcome as it is, stripling!" Pendragon declared. "I share just as much disdain for that greedy wretch as much as you and Gloriosa do!"

"Ok, but what about Dustin?" Tinber asked with a skeptical look. "That gut doesn't look like he's a threat! So what's your beef with him?!"

"No "beef"! At leaast not yet!" Pendragon declared, earning a raised eyebrow from Timebr. "Have you took notice of..."

"If it's about that watch the guy has, yeah! I noticed!" Tinber said before fishing out his phone. "And before you ask, I'm well aware that the symbol on it is just like those weird heroes that show up on the news!" Timber then tuented his phone to Pendragon, showing images of the various Digitirix forms.

"So you know?" Pendragon asked. "And you have not confronted him, or informed Gloriosa of this?!"

"Gloriosa has a lot on her plat as it is dude! You know that!" Timber shot back. "Plus, I'm sure the guy likes to keep a low profile! I don't see what has your tail in a twist, so get off his back!"

"It's not just that knave that has my concern piqued!" Pendragon replied. "It's thisd maidens that acomany him as well!"

"Maidens? You mean Tsikight and her friends?" Timber asked.

"Who else do you think I speak of?!" Pendragon retorted. "And don't think I have not noticed your advances to the bespectacled one!"

"Hey, back off!" Timber replied, making Pendragon snarl in response to that. "I'm warning you, Pen! And I'm saying this once, so listen carefully! This stalking better stop now! If it doesn't, weren't going to have a problem!"

"Do you not know to who you speak, stripling?!" Pendragon growled as he got into Timber's face. "You do know that I am older than you, and a former royal! So you better mind what you say to me!"

"Yeah. Key word, "formal"!" Timber shot back. "Remember, you're not in your world from Cyberspace anymore! You're on Earth!" Timber poked at Pendragon's snout. "I mean it Pendragon! Stop harassing the campers! Got it?"

Pendragon growled, but bowed his head. "I understand you!"

"You better!" Timber said warningly before walking off. All the while Pemdragon watched on with a scowl.
