Chapter: Three

Day one...

After they left home, they decided to make a name for there group.
Matt told his idea first, "I think it should be, 'Bike Demons'!"
"Naw, It makes us sound like a motorcycle gang." Scott shouted from the front. He was turning off onto the Highway. "How about, 'Road Riders'?" Jake sujusted. "Nooo, to plain!" Kyle rejected.
"Awww man, Not another detor...." Scott yelled from the front.
"Whats wrong? The Construction taking over the Highway agian?" Matt asked. he was laying on his bed at the time. "Ya, and there making us take a detor.... agian." Scott was having truble turning the RV, so thats why he was getting mad.
"I got it!!! The name of the group should be 'Detor'!" Kyle shouted..
The bus was silent for a bit. "Who would want a name like that?" Vincent stated. "I say we vote!" Matt knew this would settle it.
"Ok, those who want 'Bike Demons' raise there hands!" Matt was the only one raising his hand. "Fine... stare thoose in favore of 'Road Riders' raise there hands." This time Vincent and Jake rose there hands. "Looks like its going to be 'Road Riders'!" Jake snered. "Hold on, those in favore of 'Detor' raise your hand." Kyle was the first to raise his hand, Scott was second. "A tie?" Vincent gawked. "Nope, i change my vote to 'Detor'!" Matt said smiling. Vincent went and raised his hand two moments later. "Trator!" Jake glared. "Well, that settles it. Ower group of bikers is called, 'Detor'!" Matt went and sat up at the front. "Hey Scott, stop by the next hardwear store. I have a couple orders we need to pick up."

Fix it up.....

Scott pulled the bus into the parking lot. The bus was only able to be parked side ways, and it toke up six spaces. "Ok, I aranged to get this bus looking nice. Were first giving it a new pait job." Matt said getting up. "But isn't this a rental?" Scott asked. He climbed on to the bed above Matt's. Matt scratched his head. "Well, It was so expensive to rent it for just two months, so I bought it.."
Matt opened the door and walked out. "Well? Are you comming?" "Do we get to pick the colors to paint it?" Vincent asked. "Yep, as long as the logo for 'Detor' is yellow." "Then we'er in!!" the Twins scrambled out of there bed, then walked down the steps. "Hey wait up!!" Kyle jumped over Jake pushing his head down. "I get to pick, since you picked the beds!" "Hey, thats not right!" The twins said also running through the parking lot.
"Well? You comming?" Matt stood at the door. "Fine... But can we stop for Ice cream on the way?" Scott jumped down from his bed and walked out.

When everyone got inside the hardware store, Matt lead everyone to a back room. It looked like he already knew what to do. A lady walked out and greated everyone. She was a little taller than Kyle, but she Had a great figure. She looked like she was in her twenties, and the overals she wore gaver her a sort of Boss look. "Hey I'm Kassie.." she said directing it toward Matt.
"Hey Kassie, I'm Matt, you talked to me earlier." Matt held out his hand.
"Ya, I can tell. We're glad you could come." she said smiling. "I'll show you around." Kassie turned around and headed out of the room. Jake and Vincent were the first ones to move, but Matt grabed onto there shirts and pulled them back. "Hey no funny stuff ok? Shes ower sponser, so datting her is out of the question....... besides, I saw her first." and at that, Matt rushed out of the room. "That stupid perv!" the twins hissed. Kyle and Scott just passed without saying a word.

After Kassie showed them were everything was, she Told Matt that there bugit was low. Matt just knodded his head signaling he understood. The others went of looking for the stuff they needed, for the the bus' new paint job.
"Hey, maybe we should paint it in a 'half and half' pattern." Scott said looking at the paints. The paint was organized as the color spectrum."It would save money." Jake agreed. "What do you think Vin-" Jake stopped, becuse when he turned around..... Kyle and Vincent were playing with a cart. Kyle was in the cart holding a 'PBC pipe' like a jousting sword, and Vincent was pushing. "What the hell are you two doing?!" Kyle lifted the pipe up in a ready position. Vincent aimed it at Jake and Scott. "I wanted to see if I was any good at Jousting." Kyle tried to hold back a smile, but failed. "Why not you two try.. That is if your not scared of getting in trubble." Vincent grinned. He started pushing the cart toward them. Jake and Scott looked at each other before Grabbing the nearrest cart. "Oh ya, First one to ten wins!!" Scott said. Jake grabed another pipe, while Scott pushed.

Matt turned the corner right as the two teams hit. The crash was loud. While Scott was under a cart and Jake, Vincent flew forward into Kyle, and the second cart lost a wheel. "What the hell are you doing?!?" Matt just sat there and stared at the mess. "Jousting..." they all moaned.
"WITHOUT ME?!!!" Matt didn't realy know what to say since he already tried it. "Did you at least pick out the paint?"
"Ya, I think were going with Dark Blue and Red...." Jake said while helping Scott up. "Sooooo, what now?" Scott grabed the paint buckets. "Now we paint. Its time for work!!!" Kassie said comming around the corner. "Aww man!! You never said we had to work.." Kyle and Vincent finally got out of the cart... It rolled off crashing into the paint canisters. "ops..."
Everyone spent the last hour painting. A couple paint wars started out, but when they finished it actually looked like a rugular tour buss. The insides were also fixed up. Scott, Vincent, and Jake fixed the bathroom, sink, and light system. They even made Vincent and Jake's TV bunk look better.

"Well see you later Kassie." Matt was off saying good bie while everyone else loaded up.
"Hey ROMEO HURRY UP!!!!" the twins shouted. They shut the door and ,since they oiled it, it didn't squeek. "Ok, It's about Six o'clock so if I drive all night, We could make it to-" Scott was cut off by Matt. "Hey Smarty! Just drive... You don't need to worry about time. We got all summer."

Night Life...

It was about 1 in the morning and Scott was still driving. Jake and Vincent were already asleep. Kyle and Matt were playing a card game, and Scott was trying to keep his eyes open with Three Monsters and McDonald's coffee. "You doing ok up there Scott?" Matt shouted, he picked up another card from the deck. "Ya, I think the ice did it." earlier Matt put ice down Scott's shirt. "Do you have any idea how cold I am right now?!"
"I said I was sorry! Now queit down... This is the only time Jake and Vincent arn't talking, and I don't wan't to wake them." Matt cheaked to see if the twins herd any of it. They were out. Jake and Vincent actually looked normal for once..... they didn't look mad and it kinda looked like they were use to sleeping in the same bed. Then agian almost all twins were like that right.
"So, when are we going to start ridding?" Kyle got up to get a soda. "Well, tommarow were going to stop by this trail. I thought we could warm up on it befor we get up into the real bike trails. I have a list of some of the Biggest spotts across the contry." Matt sat back on his Bed. "I want ower video to look great. Not some stupid kids stuff. Oh well its better to just relax anyway." "Well then, I'm going to bed. Tommarow might be hecktick." Kyle went and laied down on his bed in the back. "Night."
The bus was silent for the next hour. Scott just drove, he was thinking about what the rest of the summer was going to be like. Matt tried to sleep, but he was to excited about his trip. "Hey Scott?" Matt wisperd.
"Ya?" "Do you think this trip will turn out? I know I only started this for that contest ,and I probly won't win, but I just can't help hopping that something good will still come out of it." Scott knew what Matt was aiming at, becuse he and Matt were both big dreamers. "Ya. I Think something great is going to happen."
