Haruka let out a soft sigh. Well, it was definitely a lot less hectic than last year, even though she wasn't exactly pleased by the group she had ended up with. The green-haired guy seemed nice enough, and the guy her age didn't seem that bad, either. But the rest... Ehh, she wasn't going to stand around and pass judgments on people. And stay out of the way of the blonde girl. And so she silently followed after her group to the salon. Along the way, she glanced at Zach a few times. Well, he did look to be about her age... Maybe she should initiate a conversation? She had no idea what would be appropriate, but... Eh, she'd try again once they found their second clue.
River was fascinated! What an interesting group of people! Was that guy drunk? She had looked at Avien curiously, trying to figure it out. It wasn't hard to figure out, but River was herself. She padded along after her group all the way to the fountain, enjoying just being out of the house~ She glanced around the area by the fountain as a few team members walked on ahead. Something caught her attention. Was something in the fountain? Before she could go investigate, she got distracted by Keith's questions. "What does the basket look like? Is it blue?" She might as well make sure she knew EXACTLY what the basket looked like before jumping to any conclusions~

Lotte was walking next to Jean, doing a soldier walk. Why was she walking like that? She had no idea. It just felt like the right kind of walking when leading troops... well, she wasn't the leader, but she was a General in their team! She had been the first member found and she was better than all the rest. Well, better at treasure hunting, that is. "So, do you guys go to school? I'm suppose to go to school, but like WHAM! I dont have time for school! Way to busy going KASHAM BAM KLANG in my workshop! Totally building a rocket. Aim for the moon! Oh yeah~. Anyone want to risk their life trying to fly it? Damn monkeys are hard to catch.... Oh look, here's the salon." Indeed, they were now facing the Salon's door. Now, to find a basket... or not. Still, they were ought to be one! They couldn't fail! She was on the team after all!

    _________________________________________________________________ The girl smirked at the boy as they followed the rest of the team, but noticed he was... nervous... she hadn't even said anything hateful yet and he was this nervous. Rolling her eyes a little when he wasn't looking, she pulled him by the wrist, along with the rest of the group so he'd move a little faster, and maybe stop stuttering! If he didn't, it would be really hard to keep from mocking him unmercifully... Was it all that hard for the girl to be nice? Hell yes it was! Molly didn't like boys... No, the only one she tolerated was her brother, the rest of them sucked... Molly liked girls, but more importantly cute girls that were easily manipulated. Yoakim was kind of like the girls she liked, but sadly, in a boy form... Of course, the girl wasn't thinking romantically about anything yet though... She only thought of terms of who she's rather talk to and actually consider being nice to. ~ Zach walked along with the rest of the team, kind of hanging back near Haruka... Yes, she was the best bet in this team for social interaction really... The rest of the team seemed kind of... strange... "So, you go to a lot of festivals here?" he lame attempt to talk to the girl, giving her a side glance as he spoke. Play it cool that's what he was trying to do... ~ Clark didn't talk to any of the members of the team. Hell, he didn't know why he was even there now. The only people he knew where were Avien, for obvious reason, and Keith, for other really obvious reasons. What was worse though, was he was stuck with this Conor person... This person that made Keith act strangely, not his usual a*****e-ish self... Okay, Maybe Clark kind of enjoyed Keith's company, just a little bit, but after those two crossed paths, it was like, Keith wasn't there anymore. Strange... Was it possible that the two had been involved before in a... oh s**t... what's the word... Oh, whatever, involved and s**t, like in the way this person was, apparently now, involved with Blair? If that was her name? Clark couldn't completely recall as he was only really half listening when Keith gave that mini explanation of who they were... ~ Avien just kind of looked around, paying no mind to the other people in his team. What were they doing again? Oh yeah, treasure hunt, right? Hmm... It was hard for him to stay focused since he was so intoxicated, but he was still standing! That was an improvement! Yes, much so improved! Sort of... The more sober he became, the more he could actually think, and right now, he did not want to think as then he'd end up blubbering like a little p***y in public... No, no one needed to see that. No one needed to ask why he felt so dead inside... Sure, he'd only know Kade for a bit, but it still hurt to know that the possibility was completely cut off now because he thought that the other was a terrible terrible person that slept with Keith.. NO! Avien would never sleep with Keith willingly! That was Clark's domain... Clark could ******** with whoever, Avien didn't care as long as the cops weren't involved... especially the cops around here... Seriously nuts people... _________________________________________________________________

Oh, he spoke! Haruka almost jumped, it had startled her so much. At first she wondered if maybe he could read her thoughts, but then she remembered that the two had been walking near each other for a while now, and it wouldn't be too weird if their thoughts overlapped a bit. "Err, yeah, sorta..." No, Haruka, no! That wasn't the sort of thing a person could usually respond to! "More than most people, I guess," she offered with a small smile. Wasn't perfect, but at least it wasn't monosyllabic. She tucked her hair behind her ear and looked up at where they were. She had tuned out Lotte, just as a self-preservation technique, so she had missed her declaration of their location. "Ah, we're here. We should look for a basket," she said to Zach awkwardly, just in case he didn't know what he was doing. That would be silly, though, since the rules had been explained earlier and... Ahh, she was just uncomfortable.
"Oh, okay," River replied with a nod. She was sure she had seen something blue, but... gold? She didn't remember anything gold. She looked over at the fountain again, hoping to catch something yellow-ish, but nothing jumped out at her. She frowned. This was confusing!

Treasure Hunt ❤ ❤ ❤(Frederick K. Murrow) (Maxwell) (Holly) (Andrew)
Andrew stayed quiet, and awkward, but followed Zelyn and David. David was so much better at talking to her.. and more noticeable. Didn't she notice he was on the team too? Probably not, seeing as he has that 'blend in the crowd' feature. Still, he followed them to the ruins.. which was a scary place, so now he was closer to David, seeing as David was older than him!
_____
After a long trip, the clinic was in sight. "Wait here." Maxwell said to his team, as he went into the clinic. Insidie, he saw Paprika, dressed in a black tight bodysuit and black wig, along with Suzy, who was on her knees, panting. "Do you expect me to give up?!" "No, I expect you to die! Muahaha!" "Ahem, can I buy fireworks?" Maxwell interrupted, not really caring that Paprika was holding Suzy's sword against her. Paprika stopped, thought and nodded. She sat down Suzy's sword on Mei's counter, and headed to one of the rooms that she kept her things, then came back a few seconds later with a big cardboard box of fireworks. "There, take it, I'm busy." Really, she rarely gets to play in the clinic with Mao around! Mei, not so much. (She was either off today, or tied up in the back, depends on what Loli finds better) Maxwell took the box, finding it a bit too heavy, so he had to put it down, and started to drag it out of the clinic.
"Now where's that sword..." She mumbled, until Suzy put the sword up to Paprika's neck. "Oh you b***h-"
"I have the fireworks." Maxwell informed his team, as he dragged the box. "Grab the biggest ones, leave the rest." He ordered, as he took three of the biggest ones. "I have a lighter, our Spellcaster will do the honors of lighting them, seeing as he is a Sorcerer." He told Yoakim Jr. No pressure in being the one to light up the fireworks to destroy an enemy vessel. With that though, he turned to head to the port!
_____
"We're looking for eggs!" Holly said to Judith, happily. She then took out her check book and stared at it blankly. "Umm, who do I make the check out to?" She now asked, looking up at Judith. Holly would rather have it settled out of court. Going to court will bring horrible publicity.. or great publicity. "See if we go to court, I might hire better lawyers and win, and if I win, I get horrible publicity, because no one wants to hear about a rich girl beating a principle in court for breaking in. Unless I hire horrible lawyers, but I like hiring Jews, so they're bound to be better than non-circumcised lawyers." She now looked at Judith with a hopeful look. "Do you want to punch me in the eye? That way it shows up on the newspaper, and Neil might interview me."
_____
"I think it looks like a basket. Like that one." Frederick said, pointing out the basket there. He wasn't grabbing it because he really didn't trust fairies. Zach did tell him about them and all, seeing as Frederick is the only one to believe him about their existence. So in Freddy's mind, fairies were well known dicks with a fetish for sodomy. Not the good kind of sodomy either, that you have to convince your wife for three years before she agrees to it, but it ends horribly since she can't get past the 'it's in my a**' thing, so you end up never getting it again. No the bad kind of sodomy that involves things being unwillingly shoved into you. So he was pretty sure it that was a true. This way, someone else can try to grab it, and die horribly in his place! Besides for Celeste, which is why he whispered to her. "Don't grab the basket, fairies probably put a trap on it." Nothing crazy in that.

Jean Philip,DavidCindy
Jean Philip was hoping that the basket of candy was in there, he would probably not even take any..Mainly cause he didn't want to be junk punched by the little drop out kid. He reached forward and grabbed the handle and pulled, balls. Locked, of course it was locked everyone who was running it was probably at the event.."Erms..it is locks..." He looked back at his team...If he didn't get in there he could see Lotte breaking in with a rock, or even burning it down with her rocket! He pulled out his lock picking tool kit (It came with his ghost hunting kit) And began working at the door. "Vell, we will gets this open iinn.." He heard a click and opened the door. "No time!" He walked inside and began to look around for a basket..or..something. He wasn't really sure what he was looking for.

"Isn't threatening to harpoon us against the law, too?" Gemma asked absently, "Isn't that the assault part of assault and battery?" she then asked no one in particular, looking over at Camellia, just because.
"In any case, blame the Chinese. He's the one who led us here and tried to break into you're office, without warning us or anything beforehand. Aside from being a petty, rude jerk." Gemma sighed, flicking her wrist dismissively at Judith. It's not like Judith even knew her name, either. "And besides that, being a citizen here should show you to have a better school security system than that mediocre thing you already have. So it's partly you're fault, too." Gemma had turned to her side and crossed her arms across her chest, cocking her head to the side to look at Judith.
"And cool down on the bitchiness, too. None of us appreciates it."
She then proceeded to point at Mao's sleeve, "He has our clue in his sleeve, which he believed to be connected to this place; for the Treasure Hunting Festival." she finished, nodding her head at Judith to just get on with it. As soon as they could get out of here and out of this condescending b***h's hair, the better.

High-functioning Marshmallow

Junior's eyes popped open as Molly took him by the wrist, feeling his blood pumping twice as usual at the simple action. He was scared! He didn't know what to do or say or anything! This was the first time someone had been nice to him since Mitsukai, and the little girl hadn't said hi to him again after that. Of course, that could be because Junior hid every time she came near and was always muttering to his rock in the back of the classroom, but he wouldn't have minded being interrupted. He was sure she was only talking to him back then because her older sister forced her.. But not Molly! She was doing this of her own free will! Which made it that much harder to figure out what he was supposed to do! He simply followed along with the girl quietly, occasionally looking to her with a small idea on what he should say, then abandoning the action before he could even formulate a word.
He kept by Molly's side up until the clinic, where they saw the most unusual of scenes. He wasn't sure what to make of it, so he just looked to the box of fireworks and tried to find the biggest he could. He grabbed a few rockets, leaving some so everyone else had a chance too. Catrina, who had been following ontop of Florence with Cindy, hopped down off the bear and padded over to the box happily. She took as much as she could carry, ignoring Max's 'biggest only' orders. Jacks, spinners, fountains – ooh~ A big roll of firecrackers! She smiled greedily and hung that on one arm, her other busy with holding everything else she snatched. She headed back to Cindy and gave her a few fountains so she didn't have to get off too. “Done, mjau~!” She announced after ringing a ribbon of firecrackers over the bear's neck, keeping the rest of the roll to herself.
“M-me..? Um, um..” Was that a protest? Ah, who knew? The kid only raised his voice for a brief period before lowering his head and mumbling something on how he was a magician not a sorcerer, but he didn't mind because he wanted to stay playing with them and not get kicked out for correcting someone. He fiddled with his rockets while waiting for what they were to do next.
~~~
Conor was still recovering, but, damn it, that didn't mean he was going to sit back and let that little b***h treat him that way! He deserved chocolate too! Or at least the tin foil – ********, he loved foil. No, wait.. that would just be asking for their trash, which would make him look pathetic. He appeared confused for a moment there, still glaring at the blond that walked right on by to the f**. When she didn't seem to be paying attention, he moved his gaze over to Clark. Even if the man wasn't really in control of what the blondie did, he still managed to be just as pissed off at him as he was towards her. ********, if anything, his anger just intensified when it was towards the man. “I want one.” He demanded with one outstretched hand motioning to the pair of eggs the guy had in the best 'Gimme' motion Conor could do. “Don't need two, ******** fatass.” Did he have a fat a**? ...No, not really, but Conor needed to fit some kind of insult in there! He hated this ********! Seriously, how the ******** was he any better than Conor?! ******** replacements.
~~~
Ah, perfect. Mao didn't like how Kaleb had went about it so recklessly, but at least Camelia stepped in before it was completely demolished. He wasn't about to praise either of them for taking so long in this, simply taking a small step forward so he could go through Judith's office. His shrine looked rather.. small in comparison to what Zhi had set up and Mao was always one to compete. Unfortunately, before he could get very far in, a rolled up clump of paper was beaten on his head, along with a string of phrases that made him feel both at home and like a little child again. Neither of which were good feelings – until he saw Judith as the one to suddenly attack him. He inwardly smiled as she turned to the others. How lovely. Even when she turned to him, he couldn't really be angry so much as astounded by what she said. He did give a scowl when his accent was touched on, but the excitement overran that quickly enough. When she finally finished with a price over three of the adults' heads that reached roughly six hundred thousand dollars, he sighed gently. If only he was alone with Judith and not surrounded by these idiots – he would be having a wonderful time! He cast a quick look of disapproval on all of them, landing specifically on Gemma. Judith could criticize him, but this woman? Ha, as if he would let that slide. Include that she said no one appreciated Judith's outspoken nature and he was already up and ready to go.
“I didn't do break into anything. Kaleb and Camellia were the ones to break in, with your approval considering your silence earlier.” He stated monotonously, looking at the door while sighing again. He lifted one arm to just under his chin and pulled out the letter. “No one would give any real suggestions and when I made a simple guess, they all went charging off like it was an order. I didn't expect them to take a joke seriously.” While that was worded to be said to Judith, the real recipient was meant to be Gemma, with an eye on her in his periphery. He shifted that attention to Judith, “I will agree that your security is severely lacking. For two simpletons to break into your office.. I'm disappointed. No wonder you're acting like this, Ms. Cunningham.” He shrugged and stayed where he was standing, though he did hand the letter to Gemma carelessly. “If you want to act like such an important person, then you tell us where to go.”

Now, back to Gemma. "I do not care about you pathetic fools. If you can't appreciate my bitchiness, you might as well throw yourself in the panther's cage. Some people do appreciate it!" She then shoved a page into Gemma's hand. It was the list of her fanclub members! On it, one could find the name of Holly's sister, Mao as well as a certain infamous police officer and a famous mobster. Then, she walked back to Mao, slapped him across the face once more, grabbed his hand, grabbed the paper and read it. She then rolled her eyes as she shoved the paper back into Mao...Yes, into him. How excatly will be left to the imagination of the reader. "That's the library. A kindergarden student could have tell you that. Now, all of you! Get out! I've seen enough of you for the rest of my life... which by the way isn't nearly over."

Crimson heard Frederick's comment and turned quickly to see a basket floating in the water. He ignored the fact that it might be a trap. He knew he'd probably seen worse on the farm than this little island could throw at him. He grabbed the handle of the basket and pulled it out of the water. He looked into the basket searching for the next clue, "Ah-ha. Which one of you mates wants to hold the first basket?" He sat it on the edge of the fountain, more interested in the next clue than who was going to hold it.
He opened the paper and began reading aloud, "Make that wish and do it quick - Antheia will have your gift." He tried to think on it, hoping someone out of the group would be able to speak up and figure this one out. Any lead was better than what he had, "I'm honestly dumbfounded with this one, mates." He scratched his head for dramatic affect with his free hand.
___________________________________
Zelynity stopped and looked around once they were at the Ruins. She turned to David and Andrew, "Do either of you see the basket?" She tilted her head a bit and started looking around. Hopefully they could find it quickly... if it was even here. She felt like they were already behind. Which wasn't too good of a feeling. She continued scurrying around the area, hoping the two boys were having better luck.

Keith lift himself up from the bench and glanced toward Crimson's direction. Oh, there was the first basket... which was blue. He threw a questioning look toward River. Had she found it earlier and deliberately ignored it? Was she a spy? A double agent? Whatever, he couldn't care less. "I don't give a damn about holding the basket" He said as he approached it, grabbing one chocolate for himself. "It's either the flowershop or the ******** flower garden." He said, pointing at the envelope that had the clue. Really, 6 years in a prestigious boarding school did have it's use once in a while. Not that he cared at all about all that. He was just able to listen to what the teachers said while joking with Conor in the back of the class. That was probably why he had way better grades that his friend... uh.. ex-friend. "Antheir is the ******** goddess of the stupid flowers." He explained.

Crimson glanced over to Keith and gave him a gentle smirk. This boy was full of knowledge, but seemed to have a bit of an anger issue for some reason. Maybe it was just today. But, that didn't change anything, he was grateful he knew who that person was. "Good job again, mate." He gave him a gentle pat on the back and went to grab a piece of the chocolate. "Well, which one is closer, mate?" He questioned all of them but glanced to Keith, since he seemed to be the only one on the team that wasn't just pointing out obvious things. Even though he seemed the second least happy to be there. First being the drunk man. He ate the chocolate and pulled out another cigarette, he lit it up quickly and leaned against the fountain waiting for any response.
