Camp Am-e-e-e-e-e-lia, become part of the team.

You’ll count d-o-o-o-own the days till you attend,

Camp Ame-e-e-elia, you’ll find friends to the end.

My mouth dropped open. I couldn’t believe Maisy had learned our camp song. Even I was terrified and I knew she wasn’t a real ghost. The Dandelion girls had to be scared out of their minds.

If you listened close enough, you could hear the click of all three tape recorders on cue. Suddenly the woods were filled with the sound of a swarm of bees flitting and flying around, as if someone had tilted over an entire hive of honeybees. I found myself swatting at my ears even though I knew there weren’t any actual bees.

The Dandelion girls ducked and swatted at their faces, arms, and legs. Their piercing screams were so loud, you could barely hear the bees.

Maisy kept swinging, back and forth, and whispered, just loud enough for them to hear, “Don’t mess with the Sunflower girls!”

All four of the Dandelion Bunk girls ran through the woods, with Tinka yards ahead of the pack, the sound of their screams trailing behind them.

I ran over to the other girls.

“OMG! I am going to pee my pants,” said Poppy, clutching her stomach and hunching over laughing.

“Did you see the looks on their faces?” I asked. “I thought Tinka was going to have a heart attack!”

“That was the best prank ever!” said Isa.

“We never could’ve pulled that off without Maisy,” I said.

“No way we could’ve done that without her,” Hannah agreed. “That was sick!”

“So.” I folded my arms. “Does that mean we can keep Maisy in our bunk?”

No one answered. They just looked at each other, then at the ground.

Maisy ran toward us, her braids whipping behind her. Even with the ghost makeup, she looked like the old Maisy, hopeful and eager to make me happy. At moments like these, I had to remind myself that the past year really had happened.

Her words came out in a jumbled rush. “How did I do? Did you guys like the prank? Was it scary enough? I think Kaya peed her pants!”

The girls kept their eyes to the ground and my heart sank. I realized it was over. I was going to remain the ghost of Mapleton School.

But then, Isa looked up and said, “That was seriously the best prank ever, Maisy. Glad you’re in our bunk.”

I didn’t realize I had been holding my breath until just then. Maisy was in. I’d done it. And when we got back to school, I wouldn’t be alone.
