What The Luck!? Chapter 181

"Hmrmmdfff." Jane and Asher looked around for the noise, "hrrRRmmmffffff" They quickly followed the groaning sound to find that Jim was flat against the next shelf. His face was pressed up against a pink flamingo face of a flamingo tube.
Asher and Jane quickly freed him, "I didn't expect to be face to face with a flamingo today. I guess that was revenge for all the times I sat on it to float down the river." Jim just laughed at his own joke. "I am glad we are alright though. I knew these things were dangerous, but they have never gone off like that before." He was scratching his head wondering why the safety functions had failed on them.
"Sorry, that's just how things tend to go around me." Asher laughed a little awkwardly as he told himself he wouldn't be touching anything else unless he was sure it wasn't dangerous. "Do you want some help moving these?"
Jim looked at the inflatables and just shrugged, "Sure, just move them to the open area at the end of the row I can start to deflate them. I will have some campers come by to fold them later. I can issue some tasks too ya know."
Jane wasn't sure why they weren't getting the offer for the task to get points but decided that she didn't want to pry in to Jim's reasoning. Instead, she just grabbed the nearest pink flamingo floatie and dragged it away.
The two were easily able to unblock the aisle, "Asher, all the things on the bottom shelves fell too. There are parts and tools on the ground here." Jane had found that a large box of odds and ends had fallen over in the chaos of inflatables.
"Coming!" Asher ran back over and started to pick things up from the pile, he grabbed what he could and realized that there were many things underneath the shelves. "Jane, I am going to get the stuff under the shelves, can you grab them from me so we can get them put away faster?"

Jane nodded yes and the two got to work. Asher laid down flat in his stomach and stitch his arm under the shelf. He didn't bother to look since he knew he was grabbing a ton of things. The first item he brought out was a wood nail. The second he grabbed was a small inflatable safety booklet. "Wish this could have saved us from the rafts attacking us." Jane laughed as she took it from Asher's hands.
Asher pulled out a round object from under the shelf and moved to hand it to Jane. When her heard Jane gasp he quickly looked at what he had brought out worried that he had taken something gross from underneath the shelf. "What the heck is the egg doing here?" He had just pulled the golden egg from under the shelf.
Jim had walked up behind them silently laughing. "Every year when it is my turn to hide that egg I overturn a box of tools and nails to make it look like a mess. If a good camper were to clean it up then they would find the egg. If not then I clean it up and forget that year. Congratulations on being the first to find the storage hiding spot." Jim laughed more, he was happy someone had finally done it.
Asher was stunned by the logic of the staff member that was in charge of the storage cabin. "That's sop sneaky but brilliant. I never would have expected to fun the egg in that way. I bet anyone that comes just ignores it."
"They would definitely meet you at the entrance and expect that they don't need to clean it up since the staff member is already here!" Jane already knew how the majority would think and believed that this was the best way for Jim to make sure that the golden egg would go to someone who he approved of.

"I don't have much else that I do in the camp. I only meet those that come to borrow something here. Even with that small pool of campers, I would hate to just give something away that could wildly increase their strength. Someone who wants to improve needs to earn things through more than just their determination. Do you know how many heroes have passed through this camp?'
This made Jane and Asher think. This was yet another one of the camps' slightly twisted tactics. It made them show their morality and only that would earn them the chance to improve on this day. "I swear every time something happens here I am amazed by the actuality of it." Asher just shook his head while Jane made her own conclusions.
"Well, on another note. What else would you two like to look at? I should have some other interesting gear for you two. How about I show you both some of the reflex training equipment we have. They are based on springs and rubber to block small projectiles of different speeds. It is a lot of fun."
Jim lead them to the far corner of the storage building that appeared to be much cleared than any of the other areas. "I like to spend my lunches here. I have always like to make a game of things and did the exact same to this little reflex machine." Jim pressed a button making a small set of barrels come out of the wall. There were small buttons all over the two walls that met to form the corner they were in.
"Why do I have the feeling that this is going to be harder than I expect…?" Asher Watched as the barrels switched and a while bouncy ball flew from the barrel that clicked in to place. Jim slapped out and knocked the ball away toward the wall.
"You need to be faster than that if you want to black the first attack. If you are caught looking at the clouds you will be just another statistic on the news." Jim was already watching for the next white bouncy ball to be fired.
