Finally the knot around the buoy fell apart, letting me and the balloon drift away. "Help!" I shouted with tears in my eyes. "Just 60 more seconds!" Chris called to me. I wiped away my tears and nodded. I looked up into the pit of the balloon. A dark whole stared down at me as a tiny flame kept the balloon moving.
>>60 seconds later
"Times up!" Chris screamed. I smiled and sat in the balloon basket, waiting to drift back down.... but that didn't happen. "How do I get down?" I screamed to the island as I floated away. "Um, who knows how to get her down?" Chris asked the campers. "WHAT??!!" I screamed as I pounded the basket's rim. "Just kidding!" Chris smiled and told me the following directions; "See those bags tied to the balloon's basket?" I nodded. "Untie one and let it go!" I did that. Watching the small bag drop into the water. Suddenly my elevation increased. I wad getting HIGHER! "Chris!" I shouted as tears filled my eyes again. I looked down at Duncan as his faced turned pale. He grabbed Chris's shirt and growled into his face, "If you don't get my girlfriend down in the next 30 seconds, I will take your megaphone, and so help me, I WILL SHOVE IT UP YOUR SORRY ASS!" I giggled. Chris gasped and turned to the balloon in the sky again. "Sorry! Thats how to get higher!" He laughed. I frowned.
"I think I noticed!" He gave me a different command; "You see the flame in the middle of the balloon?" I nodded once more. "And do you see the handle? Push the handle upward!" I did as I was told. Suddenly the balloon's elevation died down, and I floated back to the beach. All of the Killer Bass clapped for me as I jumped out of balloon and ran to Duncan. "I'm alive!" I screamed teary-eyed. "I know!" He smiled. I let go and he put his arm around me. "So, did we win?" DJ asked Chris. Cody spoke up, "Well, at this point, you can't possibly win. The score is 3 to 7." I sighed. "Actually, we have one more challenge set up." Chris smiled at Courtney. "What? It can't be ME. But I didn't--" She said. "You didn't have to. We're ALWAYS watching you, and your reactions!" Chris said to her. "Oh, what does it matter?" Courtney asked. "Then lets make this interesting! I will give you triple points if you complete it!" Chris said, and led us to a giant hot tub full of gooey green jelly. I smiled. "That looks awesome!" I shouted touching the goo. "Your afraid of JELLY??" Duncan laughed. "Shut up!" Courtney screamed. "Only the GREEN kind! It's like, sugary, jiggly, SNOT!" She shivered. "Watchu talking bout?? GREEN JELLY IS AWESOME!" I shouted about to jump in. I was suddenly held back by my waist. "Slow down, Sofie. Thats for Courtney." Harold said giggling. I smiled and linked arms with him. "Your right Harold! It IS for Courtney." Me, Duncan, and Harold all gave Courtney an evil glance as she climbed up a long ladder.
