Everyone had a good time in the water, Adrien beat Nino in a race and Marinette showed off her canon balls. It was also entertaining to watch how fast Nathalie could swim in the water. The waves flowed up around her as if she were a boat. 

A- That was awesome! 

N- I know I scared a few fishermen. 

M- That's so cool! 

L- That must have been at fast as a car. 

Max- Faster, actually. 

Nathalie smiled at them and swam back to the floating dock in the middle of the lake, where Gabriel clung onto. She jumped up and sat on the edge, rocking the wooden structure. 

G- That was fast, the water rocked this thing and it nailed my shoulder. 

Nathalie leaned over and pecked his shoulder.

N- There, better. 

She smiled, then rolled her eyes as Reef swam over. She slipped back into the water, the bathing suit clung to her skin, shaping her hips and breasts perfectly. Gabriel kept one arm on the dock and the other around Nathalie's shoulders, her white skin sparkling from under the water. 

K- I was sent to tell you that dinner's ready. 

N- And they hand picked you, specifically?

K- I volunteered. 

N- Alright, we'll be in quickly.

Without hesitation, she grabbed Gabriel's arm and swam as fast as she could through the water and ended by standing on the dock. Gabriel stumbled, but stayed on his feet. 

N- Alright, dry off and it's time to eat. 

She said to the kids, and walked back to the cabin, everyone else went into theirs and put their clothes back on. They went to the mess hall and ate dinner, Adrien enjoyed sitting next to his father. After dinner, they had a campfire. 

A- I wove smowes.

He said, stuffing another one into his mouth. Nathalie nudged him, and he swallowed, laughing awkwardly. 

A- Do you still remember some of the campfire songs from when you were a kid? 

N- Actually, I do remember a few. 

M- Luka, could she borrow your guitar? 

L- Of course, I'll go get it. 

He got up from his seat and ran to his cabin, a scream rang through the air from Luka's direction. Nathalie sprinted with Adrien right behind her, there, Luka lay with a crease in his head where someone smashed his guitar on his head, two gunshot wounds on his chest, but they hadn't heard a gun. 

M- Luka!!

The girl ran to the body, but Nathalie held her back. Marinette kicked and pushed on her, trying to get to Luka. Nathalie, Gabriel and Raford blocked the door, Adrien went with Marinette to the mess hall, when three more gunshots went off. 

N- You stay here, I'm the only one who won't get hurt. 

Before the men could reply, she ran in the direction of the gunshots, no one was there, but Juleka, Rose, and Laura. Sirens sounded in the distance and Nathalie ran back to Raford and Gabriel. 

G- Who was hit? 

N- Juleka, Rose and... Laura. 

R- No! She's not... 

He cut off, unable to finish the sentence. He stood next to everyone while the police investigated the crime scene, cops stood guard during the night, and let the campers go back to every cabin except the cabin Luka was in, all of the kids there had to go home. Nathalie sat on the bottom bunk of one of the beds while she waited for Gabriel to finish in the shower, he came out in his pjs and sat beside her, hugging her. She had her arms around her knees, and rested her chin on his arm. 

N- This is terrifying. Of course this only happens once I'm a certified murderer! 

G- You can't shoot bullets from your fangs. 

N- I know, but it still looks suspicious. 

G- Think about something else instead. I found the campfire soothing, 

N- It was soothing, huh? 

They repositioned so that they were laying down under the blanket, Gabriel kept his arm around Nathalie, he was used to sleeping next to her cold body. And Nathalie liked the feeling of warmth over her arm and sometimes her thigh. 

G- I hope we can do it again tomorrow. 

N- That depends on the investigation, but I doubt it. 

G- Aw well, maybe again soon. 

N- Goodnight my butterfly. 

G- Sleep well, my peahen. 

Nathalie snuggled back into his chest and held he held her close. The couple fell asleep and the police stood guard outside, and the murderer lurked within the forest. Waiting patiently for their next victim.
