Now the story. It is mostly written from Skugge's point of view.

Surprisingly, the music did not go off today. Instead, the lights went out. Since it was winter break, everyone was using a lot of power. I had gotten a warning on my phone, and it said it was going to be out until 9:30pm. I was kind of worried since for some reason we all had woken up at 5:00 in the morning. It was about 52 outside which for us, was really cold. The counsel didn't know what to do, so we decided to go under the roof outside and make a fire. We actually managed to get it going, but it lasted about 30 minutes. We decided that the most logical thing to do was put all of our clothes on. After that, we all looked like the stay puft marshmallow man. We were a little bored so we decided to do sumo wrestling. That was hilarious, especially since multiple people were doing weird dances when they weren't wrestling. Yaromir went searching through the closet and found a couple of lanterns on full battery. That was somehow the best thing that happened that day. After that we just talked for a while about the weird toad cosplayer we saw during the third challenge. This is where things started going insane. A few of the L.D. were taking naps, the rest trying to kill each other with pool noodles. The J.S. were actually the most calm for once as they all were gathered around a lamp and telling ghost stories. Half of the B.B.C. and S.T.O.R.M. were playing hide and seek (which legitimately lasted for over 3 hours because it was super dark in the dojo). The rest of us were pretending to be Naruto, Pokémon, and Death Note characters for some reason. It was pretty fun, until the Naruto and Pokémon people declared the 4th great ninja war. It was complete chaos, and people were flying everywhere. There was pretend jutsus, real jutsus, and random plushies as weapons. It was worse than nuclear cookies. I had no idea what to do, but it seemed that Remy was the leader of the Pokémon clan, so I used my weird figure I took with me for some reason. I pulled out Fat Rat Jimmy. Zane, Yaromir, Joshua, and Danny knew what it had come to, and pulled out their weird figures as well. I swear Jett saw all of this happening and played the Avengers theme. Zane pulled out Krompy the Krab, Yaromir pulled out his buff Charmander statue, Joshua grabbed his figure of Dr. Phil, and Danny snatched a stalk of corn. We all held them up to Remy's face and she pretended to get knocked out. We all were cheering and the Pokémon clan slithered back into the shadows of the punching bags. Just then, Manny called, and the only thing he said was, "We ride at dawn!" I ignored the call and woke up the L.D. It was 7:30 pm, and we got the daily pizza delivery. We calmed down, and we then played a couple of games. Then for some reason Yaromir scared the living bejeebus out of me when he appeared behind me and said, "I hath awoken the ancient one." I dint know what it meant, so I ignored it, but Alma and Jovannah I was playing with were terrified. I said to them that they needed to sing the Happy Song. They asked me what it was, and I realized what I had done. I had to sing or I would not be able to go to sleep tonight. I took a deep breath, and sung, "The legs on the bus go step step step, step step step, step step step. The legs on the bus go step step step all day long." I guess that didn't help because they started screaming. Yaromir also must have heard it because his eyes were really wide, and he dropped his napkin. I decided to call it a night, and just let the others watch Hao's moving castle. Luckily only two more days of this madness.
