The Shack 2.0

  The Shack 2.0 began after the original shack met its fateful end.  Construction began towards the end of Christmas break of the Fiends senior year of high school.  It was located in the Greenbelt in Stu's neighborhood.  They would park in the neighborhood swimming pool's parking lot and trek about 12 minutes into the forest to get to Shack 2.0.  The construction of Shack 2.0 was very similar to that of the original shack.  Most of the supplies were not acquired legally, they were building on state protected land, and were underage drinking most of the time.  Three machetes were used to clear a ton of Cedar from around the Shack 2.0.  Shack 2.0 ended up similar to the original but larger and of slightly lower quality, due to the expedited construction schedule.  A fire pit was erected and Shack 2.0 was deemed complete.  A fire was lit and the beer started flowing.  They had a few successful parties, most notably Morpheus's birthday.  That was a rager, with probably around 25-30 people showing up.  Anyways, to get to the good part.
  A few weeks later during a chill night at the Shack 2.0, Dillon, Andy, Stu, Squeaker, and a few more people were all sitting around the campfire drinking beer when 4 large men appeared from the woods.  They slowly walked up, surrounding them and Dillon greeted them with this; "Who the fuck invited y....."  His words were quickly cut off when he noticed the large firearms on all of their waists.  They were 4 large Sheriff Deputies.  At this point they were all pretty wasted so they didn't think much of yelling at cops at the time.  The cops asked for everyone's IDs, but Dillon lied and told them he didn't have his ID, thinking he would try and run later.  The cops ordered them to pour the remaining beer out on the fire and gather whatever they could carry.  Then, they told them to get in a single file line and begin the hike back up to the parking lot.  Along the way the cops noticed the Fiends looking for escape routes so the cops threatened to shoot and taze them the entire walk.  They scared the Fiends a little.
  They got up to the parking lot and the cops sat all of the fiends down cross legged in the grass.  Some of them were handcuffed, their cars were searched, and quite a few civil liberties, in the way of dick grabbing, were violated.  Stu, feeling like a badass, began yelling Big Lebowski quotes at the cops, then was handcuffed and put in the back of a cop car.  Alcohol was found in some cars and citations began being issued.  Their parents were called, (most of them were 17) as the Fiends sat waiting, handcuffed in the grass, for their parents to arrive.  Upon their arrival they were all given the Fiends tickets, some got MIP's, some got MIC's, and some got both, bullshit right?  After getting an earful from their parents, everyone went to sleep ending that fateful night in which Shack 2.0 was disgracefully murdered.

It was later revealed that Sam and Jake were responsible for leading the cops down to the Fiends.  Fuck them.

Anyways at least all they ended up with was class C misdemeanors.  They probably could have went down for multiple felonies.  What luck they have.

The Shack

  The Shack was first put into production during Thanksgiving break of The Fiend's senior year of high school.  They were sick of the endless search for people whose parents were out of town so they could have a place to party.  Although, they could occasionally party at Dillon's or Boris's house, they needed more variety.  Then, one day, Morpheus thought of the great idea: To build a shack!  It took a lot of convincing, but eventually the other fiends believed they could do it.  They decided to build a structure in the woods behind one of their houses so it could be their private place to party.  After considering many locations, they settled on a spot behind Sam's house because they could park on the streets in Sam's neighborhood and hike down for about one minute and be completely concealed in the woods.  Through unconventional ways, they acquired construction supplies and began work.  Progress could be seen over Christmas Break as a three walled structure emerged.  The floor was made of pallets covered with carpet.  There were three posts cemented into the bedrock supporting walls made of chain link fence.  The fence was covered with tarp along with the roof.  A fire pit was constructed just outside and chairs were brought down.  Andy and Todd constructed two bars and spray painted the inside.  Everyone pitched in and brought posters, pictures torn out of magazines, and street signs.  They fenced in the area around the fire pit and left one door that they could close and lock up.  To keep it hidden from possible predators (cops), they zip tied cedar branches onto the exterior fence to camouflage it,  routinely referred to the cedar camouflage as, flage.  Used in a sentence: Throw some more flage up it's weak over there.  They built a beer pong table outside the fence, lighting it with Tiki torches, decorating it and signing it.  Trust me, it was badass.  One fateful day Sam approached us and said that his dad had heard about a structure in the green belt at a neighborhood meeting.  He told Sam that it was going to be demolished the next day.  They raced over to the Shack and grabbed as much as they could.  A couple days later, they went back and all that remained was a pile of ashes from the fire pit.  It was a tragic day for all.  Later on they built a Shack 2.0, but that's another story.
