LIGHTNOVELSTORY Chapter 16: Camping 3
Rayne immediately knew what was going on. Isaac had woken up and realized that his game console was missing.
She dressed up and left her tent, heading over to Natalie's campground. She brought a paper bag with fruits, and a copy of Isaacs game console.
As she walked over she saw Natalie helping Isaac and Luke dig through the tent, trying to find the game console.
Isaac was in tears, frantically searching all over the tent. Natalie was trying to stay calm, and keep Isaac calm while searching through the sleeping bags.
"Don't worry Isaac, it's somewhere here. I saw you bring it into the tent with you last night", said Natalie.
"Dave you wanted to play with it last night, have you seen it?", Luke looked over to Dave and asked.
Dave shook his head, "Nope, you guys wouldn't let me play with it so I just went to bed". He just stood outside the tent, looking oddly happy.
"Are you sure? I feel like I saw you playing it in the middle of the night", probed Luke.
Dave got really angry. "Yes I'm sure! Are you saying that I stole it? Go ahead and check my stuff!! Some friends you are!", he shouted.
"Calm down everyone! I don't believe that it could have gone far. Dave if you don't mind, let us check your bag, maybe it was misplaced.", said Natalie, looking at the three boys.
Rayne walked over, and gave Dave a cold glance.
"I couldn't help but overhear that you've lost something. Last night I had a dream that a little thief was tossing things into the stream".
Dave froze, looking up at Rayne. "Whhaat... what do you mean?".
Natalie looked over at Dave and saw his frightened expression and her face darkened. But before she could say anything Rayne took the game console out of the paper bag and presented it to Isaac.
"I woke up in the middle of the night to go use the bathroom, and noticed that this was sitting on the table outside. I was worried that it might rain so I decided to hold on to it until the morning for you".
Isaac lit up, holding the console that Rayne handed over. "Thank you! I was worried that I was unlucky again! I've lost many cool things before which made me feel like I was an unlucky person. I will take care of this gift much better!".
Rayne looked over at Dave and thought , I'm sure that your 'unluckiness' is this boy you call a friend.
After handing over the bag with fruit Rayne turned to walk back to her campsite, but realized that Natalie was following behind her.
"Hey Rayne. I get the feeling that you know something about what happened, mind telling me?", Natalie walked over and asked Rayne.
"Sure, I will tell you what I saw", replied Rayne, and continued, "Last night I saw Dave come out holding the game console. He placed it on the table before he went down to the stream and began throwing rocks.
I overheard him complaining about how Isaac got this gift, and eventually jealousy overtook him. Once I realized that he had intentions to throw the console into the stream, I grabbed it off the table for safe keeping.
I know it's not my place to say this but I don't believe that Dave is a good friend to your son", Rayne explained. Of course, she skipped the part where Dave actually threw the console into the water.
Natalie looked horrified, "Thank you for telling me this. Once we are back home I will have to have a serious conversation with Isaac".
When the two finished talking Rayne went back to her tent to freshen up. Today she planned to take full advantage of the sunlight to go hiking towards the waterfall she wanted to see yesterday.

Dillon was sitting on his couch at his apartment feeling bored. He was recently fired from his job because he kept skipping days due to being hungover.
Now he had little money, and fewer things to do. Krissy had work during the day and couldn't keep him company. Dillon didn't tell her about him losing his job because he didn't want to lose his 'rich boy' image.
He glanced at the small sealed box that was sitting on the coffee table. He had finally heard back from the guy who gave it to him, saying that he needed to drop it off at 11pm on Tuesday at Club Solstice.
"This guy better not rip me off, I need the cash bad", sighed Dillon.
He turned off the TV since nothing interesting was playing and looked around the room. Looking at the clock he realized that Krissy wouldn't be back for at least a few more hours.
Leaning back against the couch, Dillon picked up his phone and opened his favorite porn site. Unzipping his pants, he figured he could relieve some of his boredom until Krissy came back.
He repeated this process multiple times until Krissy finally came home. When she opened the apartment door, what greeted her was Dillon's erection.
She didn't even get enough time to take her shoes off before Dillon led her to the bedroom and bent her over the bed. He hiked up her black pencil skirt and ripped the crotch area of her tights with his hands before he shoved his cock inside.
He kept Krissy on the bed for hours before he was finally tired enough to relax.
Krissy lay on the bed trying to catch her breath. "This surprise better be worth bullying me like this", she muttered, feeling exhausted.

Rayne was walking along a dirt trail through the forest, enjoying the views of the forests and mountains. The sun was shining brightly, and there was a nice cool breeze helping Rayne with the summer heat.
After walking along the trail for about 40 minutes, Rayne could finally hear the sounds of running water.
She picked up her pace and before long she arrived in front of a large, beautiful waterfall. She went to stand on the bridge that was directly in front of the waterfall, and felt the water mist coming off the water on her skin.
She stood there enjoying the view before taking out her phone and taking a few pictures. She would use these photos for drawing inspiration in the future!
After she finished admiring the waterfall, Rayne decided to walk further up the trail. The park was large, and she didn't encounter anyone else on the way.
She hiked for most of the morning, and ended up in a higher part of the mountain. She heard someone talking a little farther up ahead, so she slowed down and lightened her steps.
"Tell the boss that this location could potentially be suitable. The only issue is lack of flat land".
A man who looked like a lawyer was talking on his phone. Rayne felt intimidated by him and wanted to turn around to walk back to her campsite.
Just as Rayne was about to turn around, someone grabbed her by the shoulders from behind.
"Oh who do we have here? A little eavesdropper?", said the man who was holding her.
"Hey Tak, I found this young woman listening in on your phone call", shouted the man behind her.
Rayne struggled to get out of his grip, but he didn't let her.
"Please, I was just walking along the trail, I wasn't eavesdropping! I didn't hear anything!", pleaded Rayne. She was very frightened, she felt like these men wouldn't think twice before killing her.
Tak, the lawyer looking man, finished his phone call and casually walked over towards Rayne. He glanced at her, seeing her hiking boots and the park map in her hand.
"Let's go, I've finished giving the status update. We need to head to the next location", he said casually.
"What should we do with her? I can kill her if you want", said the man holding Rayne.
"Don't bother killing her, we don't have time to clean it up", replied Tak. Then he turned around and began walking down the mountain.
"It's your lucky day lady! You get to keep your life!". The man then searched her and took her phone and park map and threw them down into a ravine.
He then took a sack and placed it over Rayne's head, and tied her to a tree.
"Hahaha! Be a good girl and reflect upon yourself. It's rude to eavesdrop, next time I won't be so kind".
Rayne then heard footsteps walk away. Her heart was racing, she's never been in such a situation. She stood, leaning against the tree she was tied to, trying to calm herself.
"I am alive, and I can get out of this. It's going to be okay", she whispered to herself a few times.
Rayne knew that panicking wouldn't help her, she needed to be calm so that she could think clearly. She had her system, and knew it would be the ticket that would get her out of here.
