We can hear the devil singing and the song is coming to an end.
He's started early this year, generally we only catch a few of the opening lines before camp ends for the summer but according to Councillor Raj he began three days ago. On the bright side we're all excited to be hearing all the verses we've never been able to hear before but on the other hand none of us know what will happen when he stops.
The Councillors are forever trying to distract us from the song but even they end up listening to it all the same. We've spent hours just sitting and hearing words we can't understand but the meaning is somehow deep in our minds.
Right from day 1 we've been told that the bus is on its way to take us to the nearest town where our parents will pick us up but its been over a week now. I reckon the devil got there first, forced the driver off the road and counted it as a sacrifice. I know he takes sacrifices - Craig's been catching and killing squirrels for him and now he's got really sharp teeth and weird eyes.
He's been offering to kill squirrels for the other campers and so far nobody's said no.
We all want to become something better and the devil's song can do that for us.
We don't want him to stop singing.
