"So, where's the first destination?" Martha asked, crossing her arms in front of her chest. Naib and William shrugged whilst Kurt pulled out a tattered piece of paper. It looked a lot like...
Martha gasped. "You got Freddy's map? How?!" She exclaimed. Kurt chuckled and smiled.
"Well, you see, I have my trusty book of which I used to borrow it" He said with a gleam in his eyes. William looked over at him.
"I think you mean 'steal', not borrow" he stated plainly. "And I thought you were the smart one here.."
Kurt stiffened but made no comeback. Instead, he spread open the map and...
Stared at it for a few minutes.
Afer a while, Naib sighed and leaned over his shoulder.
"What's up, Kurt?" He asked, boredom filling his voice.
"His map doesn't include anything past the border..."
Martha closed her eyes and internally face palmed.
I should've known... he has never gone past the borders!
She opened her eyes and placed her hands in her hips.
"Okay, let's get a new plan ready before everyone starts wondering where we've gone" she instructed sternly.
"Do you have a plan, Martha?" Kurt asked. She stayed silent and looked away.
"I think she means 'no, I do not', is that right Martha?" Naib said, half jokingly. She glared at him.
"Shut it, green bastard.."
"I'll take that as a thank you"
"Why you—"
Kurt and William huddled together and tried to think of plans whilst Martha and Naib played cat and mouse in the back.
"I have an idea" William said again. Kurt sighed.
"What is it this time, William?"
"How about we just, you know, explore? You should be good at this." He suggested. Kurt closed his eyes in thought and then nodded in approval.
"Sounds good and fun. Martha! Naib!" He yelled. The two turned around at the mention of their names.
"We got a plan, let's go!"

Michiko held her hands in front of her chest and looked at the group of hunters and survivors.
"Alright! Who wants to be seeker first?" She asked, her voice filled with a childish joy, similar to that of the gardener's. Smiley held up his hand.
"Me! Me!"
Michiko smiled.
"Okay! We can hide everywhere except near the cabins, let's go! 30 second head start, Smiley!" She yelled before blowing a whistle. The giddy clown covered his eyes and started to count whilst everyone scattered into different places.
Emily blended in with the hunters and survivors who weren't playing.
Emma hid behind a pile of barrels near the border.
Kreacher hid next to her without her knowing. I'll protect you, my dear gardener..
Michiko hid inside a tall palm tree.
Joseph sneakily took a small photo and squeezed himself into the mirror world. I won't lose to you, buffoon!
Margeretha took out one of her music boxes that were in the working out of her pocket and placed it on the ground after tuning it. Hopefully this works... She then proceeded to hide in some bushes.
Kevin lassoed himself into a palm tree that was near the geisha's, not to his knowing though.
Servais made a copy of himself in front of where Emily was hiding and then hid himself behind a sign.
Helena slowly made her way to a clump of vegetation under Michiko's tree and held her cane above the ground, ready to tap.
"29, 30! Ready or not, here I come! Hehe" Smiley yelled before dashing about. He quickly hit Servais' copy and he grunted.
"That's not fun.."
He then looked at the huddled group of survivors and hunters, all trying to somewhat hide Emily.
"Have you seen anyone?"
Hastur shook his head. Fiona and Eli shrugged, seeming disinterested. Bane was playing in the water with Lucky Guy, so he didn't hear the question.
"Sorry, haven't seen anyone" Jack said solemnly. Violetta shook her head and offered him a cobweb doll, which he refused. Vera shook her head as well.
"I'm not interested in your buffoon games.." she said with a small huff, looking at her nails. Tracy continued to fiddle with a new gadget, not listening to anyone.
"I haven't seen anyone but I can look at my... my map!" Freddy suddenly exclaimed, searching frantically in his bag.
"You brought your map to a beach?" Tracy questioned with a snigger. He glared at her before continuing to look.
Vera yawned.
"It must be in there somewhere, unless you misplaced it or someone took it" she stated.
"I never took it out of my bag, but who could've... Kurt!"
"Kurt? Why him?" Jack asked.
"I saw him running away with my map! But I thought it was just some random paper he got from exploring, I should've known!" Freddy yelled angrily.
"Kurt! Kurt! Where are you?!" He screeched, standing up and running everywhere. He stopped when he found a small gap in the fences on the border. His mind slowly processed the information before...
*click*!
"Kurt, William, Naib and Martha must've gone past the borders!" Freddy yelled again. Everyone came out of their hiding spots, stopped what they were doing and gasped.
"No way!" Emma yelped. Kreacher stood up next to her and yelled some gibberish in disbelief.
"B-But they're not allowed out there!" Helena spoke up timidly from beside Michiko, who was fuming.
"Yeah! The owner of the manor said so!" Emily chimed in. Michiko let outa shriek of rage and flew up.
"KURT, WILLIAM, NAIB AND MARTHA! GET OVER HERE IMMEDIATELY OR I'LL COME LOOKING FOR YOU!!"
She thrashed about in the air, absolutely pissed and angrier than a hell hound. She finally calmed herself down and came back down where Helena was waiting for her.
"I-Uhm.. mu-Michiko?" She said softly. Michiko bent down and stroked her hair soothingly.
"What is it, sweetie?"
"I can.. I can do tap tap and look for them... if you want.." she suggested, bending her head down and clutching Michiko's jacket. The Geisha smiled and hugged Helena tightly.
"That would be great!" She exclaimed happily, her anger completely gone.
Helena thrusted her cane on to the ground strongly and started to search.

"Did you guys hear that? We better hide somewhere!" Martha said worriedly after hearing the geisha's angry shriek. William waved her off.
"We're fine, she doesn't have the guts to go past the border I bet!" He joked. Martha said nothing but kept on sneaking glances behind her.
"What is this plan that you guys came up with, I swear we're walking in circles.." Naib grumbled from beside Martha. She looked back at them and nodded her head in agreement. Kurt coughed awkwardly and William whistled a tune. "Why don't you tell 'em, William? You came up with it" Kurt said nonchalantly, throwing William under the bus. William gulped audibly and continued to march forwards.
"I'd rather not.." he mumbled back.
"Why not?" Kurt replied loudly, making sure that the two behind them could hear. William hissed softly.
Damn you, Kurt!
"W-well.. you see, Kurt wanted to go wander around because he's an explorer" William said quickly.
The explorer beside threw him a bewildered glance. His eyes showed confusion, anger and fear; all mixed into one.
"Curse you.." he muttered lowly. The forward only smirked in response.
"You told me to tell them~" he sang merrily.
"So that's what we're doing?" Naib interrupted suddenly.
"Pardon?" Kurt squeaked back hesitantly.
"We're just wandering around?" Naib said again. Kurt shrugged.
"..Maybe?"
*click*
"M-Martha? Why are you pointing at m-me? Isn't he the... the culprit?"
"You're both guilty of not confessing the truth, cowards"
Kurt looked over to William and saw Martha instead, a gun pointed at his skull. In her other hand, another gun was pointed at William.
"Repent"

"aaAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHhhhHhh!"
A loud scream of two men reached everyone's ears.
"What in the world..?"
"What was that?!"
"Kreacher doesn't know but if you're scared Emma, Kreacher can hel-"
"Emma! Are your ears ok?"
"Yes, thank you Emily"
Michiko regained her composure and stood tall once again.
"I-is everyone okay?" She asked loudly. Murmurs and yells of "yes" exploded all at once. Michiko nodded her head slowly.
"Good, good"
She bent back down to Helena and gently patted her head.
"You alright darling?"
"Y-Yes, I found them"
She raised a slightly shaky finger and pointed towards the forest beyond the fence.
"They're over there"
Michiko smiled and stood up once more.
"Jack! Joseph! Let's go"

"Owwwwwww!" Kurt whined, clutching his head.
"Ouch! Ouch! Heal me please!" William yelped frantically.
"We're sorry!" They yelled in unison.
Martha sighed and brought out the healing equipment from Kurt's backpack.
"It's alright, I forgive you" she said softly. "But just this once"
They both nodded their heads quickly.
Once they had been healed, they continued wandering around since no one had an actual plan. They came across various things such as old temples, abandoned camp sites and large lakes but none seemed to spark their interests. Naib was about to complain when he tripped over a tree root that was sticking out of the ground. The rest of the group tried to grab him but none held his hand. He tumbled down a tall slope and rolled to a stop near the bottom. His limbs were now dirty and littered with scratches.
"Oh darn.." he groaned, struggling to sit up. He blinked his eyes, trying to focus. Just how tall was that slope, geez..
"Naib!"
He turned around and saw Martha, as well as Kurt and William, running towards him.
"Are you okay? No you're not.. let me heal you!" Martha sputtered out. Kurt quickly set down his bag and brought out the medical equipment. William left to get some water while the other two tended to his wounds.
William soon came back with a bucket of water, which he poured over Naib to somewhat clean him.
"Thanks guys"
"No worries!" William grinned wide.
"Happy to help" Martha smoothened out a bandage on his leg.
"It's ok, and look! You found a cave! Good on you Naib!" Kurt yelled, pointing behind Naib to a large opening in a mountain.
"Wow..."
"Alrighta! Let's go in and-"
"Where are you naughty children going?"
Everyone froze as a small chill ran down their spines.
One word came to everyone's mind.
Geisha.

Oof
This ain't the best but I hope that it does fine. Sorry for not updating in a while ;w;
I don't have much to write here. Kind of dying mentally so don't mind me.
Anyways, I'm working on a request right now. Stay tuned!
