Every Adventure Requires a First Step
You live in possibly the most boring suburb area in the country. Every single house looks the same - bright, ugly custard paint; perfectly manicured lawns; and a simple white picket fence. To the adults, every little last thing has to be perfectly symmetrical or else they’ll go crazy. Oh, the adults, that’s a whole other story. All the kids here agree that all the adults are completely brain-dead. All they care about is “Ohhh~ When do you care to have another barbeque?” Or “This iced-tea is simply delish! I muuust have the recipe!”
They’re too busy being total nimrods to even notice what us kids are doing in our own backyards.
Ever since I moved here a few months ago, I noticed that every house has a treehouse in the backyard. Yes, a treehouse. An amazing, totally epic fort cabin thing that’s perched on the strong branches of a thick oak tree. It’s awesome! But what I had yet to figure out is that the other kids here completely trick out their treehouses.
And battle over it.
Everyone is trying to make their treehouse better then the other’s. And not just by having a TV and video games in it, but arcade games, flat screen TVs, and mini hot tubs! The only problem is, everyone wants what someone else has. That’s where the whole “battle” thing comes in.
Each house has this sort of “team” made up of close friends or even siblings. They would go completely spy-mode and actually sneak into other treehouses to steal thing of someone else’s.
I have to admit, it is pretty cool.
But it’s a bit scary at the same time, too. I mean, these guys are fierce. Everyone seems to have their own signature weapon. Ohgosh no, not like guns or grenades! But things you would find in your own kitchen or bedroom or garage.
These guys weren’t kidding when they meant this wasn’t your “regular neighbourhood.”
