Title: Stretch right up and touch the sky Chapter 4

Author: @blaineandsamevanderson

Fandom: Legends of Tomorrow/Arrow/The Flash/Supergirl

Ship: Iris/Eddie, will have many more to come

Rating: G

Summary: Camp STAR is one of the North East’s most popular science camps. Every year, young minds arrive to learn and explore. Unfortunately, a few weeks before the camp was to open for the season, a large explosion in one of the labs and the ensuing fire made the camp uninhabitable. Not wanting his campers to miss out on their summer, Owner Harrison Wells called up Joe West, Owner of Camp Superflarrow, who he knew was looking to expand the science discovery program at his own camp.

Author’s notes: There are a few random counselor names thrown in to fill out the lists. They will not be of importance.

“Gimme a boost, boys!”

In a practiced motion, Barry grabbed one of Iris’s hands while Eddie took the other and they lifted her up onto a tall stump by the camp gates. From there, all the counselors and CIT’s would be able to see her as she made a brief announcement. After today, such announcements would be done by the head counselors, but as they had just arrived, Joe was letting Iris hand out cabin assignments this year.

“I know some of you have summered with us before,” she was saying and a cheer rose up from most of the returning campers. Iris grinned back at them before continuing, “This season, we’ve got a lot of new faces joining us and we’ve also got lots of new programs and guest speakers available for all campers. Dad and Dr. Wells will fill everyone in at the Welcome ceremony, but for now, I’m sure you all want to know where to store your gear.”

Cabin assignment time.

“First up, we have the Penobscot Cabins, which house our younger boys. Cabin 1, Barry Allen and Eddie Thawne.”

Barry tossed an amused grin over at Eddie, who held out his hand for a fist bump. “Joe wants you to keep an eye on me, right?” the blond joked, but Barry winced a little at the comment. Eddie’s eyes widened. “Oh God, that’s actually it!”

With a shrug, Barry admitted, “He may have muttered something about making sure you stay in the cabin at night….”

Eddie groaned as Iris continued to read off names.

“…Leonard Snart & Jefferson Jackson…Oliver Queen & Winn Schott…Mon-El Daxam & Tommy Merlyn…Bruce Wayne & Steve Trevor….”

After that, she moved on to assigning counselors to the Sequoia (Boys Middle Age) Cabins. “James Olsen & Ray Palmer to Cabin 1…Wally West & Nate Haywood…Cisco Ramon & Curtis Holt…John Diggle &Roy Harper…Rory Regan & Rene Ramirez…..”

Kennebagos (Older Boys) were next. Clark Kent & Julian Albert, Mick Rory & Hartley Rathaway, Carter Hall & Rip Hunter were paired to watch over cabins while Lex Luthor was given a cabin of his own with fewer boys to manage.

“All of you, make sure to keep your boys out of the girl’s cabins, you hear me?” Iris teased. “Our younger girls are in the Acadia Cabins. Cabin 1 is me, Iris West, & Caitlin Snow. We’re gonna have fun!”

Barry tracked her wave to a pretty auburn haired girl of about their age. The summer sun painted her curls in colors that reminded him of fall and Barry blinked before refocusing on the cabin assignments. Not that he’d remember all of them, but it was good to be able to match unknown faces to names. “…Sara Lance & Lisa Snart…Kara Danvers & Felicity Smoak…Diana Prince & Eve Teschmacher…Cindy Taylor & Lyra Strayd….”

Next came the Baxter (Middle Girls). “Lyla Michaels & Jesse Wells…Lucy Lane & Amaya Jiwe…Megan Morse & Thea Queen…Cassandra Savage & Linda Park…Nyssa Al Ghul & Evelyn Sharp…Dinah Drake & Isabel Rochev….”

Finally, she reached the Kennebeck cabins, where the Older girls bunked. “…Lena Luthor & Laurel Lance…Alex Danvers & Maggie Sawyer…Lois Lane & Kendra Saunders…Patty Spivot & Leslie Willis…Cindy Reynolds & Siobhan Smythe…Helena Bertinelli & Elena Vasquez….” Iris read off, then nodded to the crowd. “See you all at the campfire in an hour.”

As Eddie helped her down off of the stump, Barry raised his voice to call out, “Wally, help any new Sequoia counselors find their way! Rip, you got the Kennebagos!” A happy wave from Wally and an annoyed eye roll from Rip said that they’d heard him. “Lyla, take the Baxter? Thanks! Laurel, Kennebecks?”

The two girls started leading their newbies as Iris called, “Acadia & Long Creek this way, Penobscots with Barry.”

Everyone gathered up their gear and began trooping off into the camp, splitting into smaller groups as they headed for their cabins. As they made their way through the campground, Barry began pointing things out and rattling off bits of information. Most of the boys in his group had been to camp before and were only listening with half an ear, but some of the newbies peered at the tennis courts, soccer fields and climbing towers with interest.

Once they reached their small cluster of cabins, each with a plaque bearing the name Penobscot and a number, they paired off, hauling their things into their bunks. The cabins were spacious log buildings with large windows that could be opened to allow airflow through the screens. Bunk beds filled the main room and there was a storage room to keep clothes and belongings in beside the small counselor’s room. At the other end of the cabin was the shower and bathroom, all newly renovated and each cabin had a small, attached porch.

“You okay if I take bottom bunk?” Eddie asked as he and Barry entered the room they’d be sleeping in for the summer.

“Sure,” Barry agreed amiably as he opened the windows, letting the cross draft flow through the room. He’d already brought most of his things over earlier, but he had a bag with bedding that he dug his sheets out of.

As they began to make their beds, Eddie said, “You were kidding about spying on me for your dad, right…Barry?”

He wasn’t planning on narcing on them, but it was fun to tease Eddie with the idea. Maybe if he played his cards right, he could get Eddie to take care of the particularly messy criers in exchange for keeping quiet….

“This is more like what I though camp would be like when Alex first started talking about going,” Kara enthused, grinning at Felicity as they entered their cabin. “I mean, don’t get me wrong, I loved STAR, but I didn’t expect dorms and stuff like that. Movie camps look like this!”

The dorms at STAR had been large and spacious, each room holding 2 campers, single beds, dressers, desks, chairs and closets. Each room had a ¾ bath attached, air conditioning, a kitchenette and a tv. It seemed more like a pre-college experience than a camp, and a pretty spiffy college at that.

Superflarrow was far more camp like, with cabins and many more outdoor activities. Their cabin was neat and clean, rows of bunks taking up the main room, a large, shiny bathroom taking up one end of the building. The counselor’s room was at the other end and they had their own separate bath.

That was nice.

The bunk beds might not be everyone’s cup of tea, but they didn’t bother Kara.

“Do you mind if I take the bottom bunk?” Felicity asked a little sheepishly. “I’m not the biggest fan of heights.”

“Not a problem,” Kara assured the other girl. Felicity was another transfer from STAR, so she was happy not to be rooming with a total stranger. Not that she wasn’t eager to meet new people, but what if she didn’t get along with her roommate? Alex seemed okay with bunking with Maggie, whom they had met on the bus, but she was glad for a familiar face. “What did you pick for your specialty?”

Each counselor had an area of focus that they would direct activities in. The cabin pairings were probably assigned so at least one counselor from each cabin would be with their campers at any given time if the other had to go off and lead a sport or class.

“The Camp Radio Station,” Felicity told her with a smile. “I know not as many campers will take an interest in that, but me and Cisco will be able to have fun with it, doing daily announcements and improving the camp’s audio systems. I mean, did you see the old school, mega-phone looking speakers nestled in the trees?”

Kara nodded. “I thought they blended in pretty well, considering someone went to the trouble of painting them green.”

“I’ll give them points for that,” Felicity agreed, then asked, “Which program are you working in?”

“Voice,” Kara told her. “Alex says I put the Kara in Kara-eoke.”

Felicity let out a giggle. “That’s an awful joke. I love it.”

Yeah, this rooming situation was going to work out just fine!
