. Round 12: Slime Ranchers .
The scout gives you a satisfied crocodile smile and folds her order sheet, then tucks it into her sash. "Right. So there's a lot of weird stuff in the woods, but the new guy- he's the one you're looking for. If you go around the lake, you'll find him. He's always over there- real shy guy. Hasn't been around for too long, and he doesn't like to leave his tree house. You know those jellies our troop leader was telling you about? They seem to have taken a liking to him and they won't leave him alone. Thing is, they're... pretty aggressive." She frowns a little. "I guess living out here has made them kind of mean. For jellies. They try to bounce him every time he comes down. We went over there once to work on our Wildlife Safety badges, but our troop leader said that they didn't really count as wildlife and besides, we found some really big bears to be safe around instead. They were better than the jellies, anyways. But if you're looking for him, that's where he is. There's also two old werewolves in the old mine and if you ask real nice they'll give you a hard candy and tell you stories, there's a monster in the lake who helped us get our Water Safety badges- did you know that if you have ten legs you can hold ten CPR dummies at once? And there's sometimes other stuff that comes in and out, but that's the main ones that we know. Some others aren't here right now- like the Bigfoots. They migrate, you know. Nobody makes boots big enough for them, so when the weather starts to get chilly, they go somewhere they can stay barefoot." She nods, then stares at Riot. "A hundred boxes? AWESOME. I'll get the Junior Entrepreneur Badge for sure! So you wanna know about Sam? He's a pretty good guy- he and the rest of the family are real snowbirds, though. They won't be back until spring, but if you wanna see- look, here's their cookie order." She produces another piece of paper to show Riot. There's a list- Sam Squanch, Sass Quatch, and B. I. G'foot, all shown as accounts paid. "Girl scouts know everything about cryptids. So should I put you down for a hundred Skinny Spearmints, or do you want a variety?" There were dollar signs in the little mer's eyes, but L'eggs came over to pull Riot away.
"Come on, we need to get moving. If we've got rogue jellies to deal with, we've got to get after them before Benedict does. If I have to hear anything about unidentified bouncing objects, I might die."
The group moves with new urgency towards the lake. Mist has settled on its surface, and a fog has rolled in- it's hard to see past the tip of your muzzle. Suddenly, a dark shadow flits in front of you, half-running, half-flying. You barely see him as he moves over your heads, but you hear a quiet, petrified call in the fog.
"Help! Please!"
Help? Help what? This question is answered by the slow thudding coming towards you.
Jellies. A whole pack of them, bouncing here and there and everywhere- right at you. They're fast, they're... furious? Do they even have emotions? Whatever they are, they're coming this way. But the fog makes it really hard to see them, and so corralling them is going to be a tricky business indeed.
