You're probably asking, has anyone beaten Tyler at Go-fish yet? Let's find out.

"Yes! I win again!" Guess who that was. Yup,  the ever so loving messenger. 

The other three glanced to one another. "Why are we still playing this?" Asked Kevin.

Riley lifted her shoulders slightly. "Aren't we aiming for second place?" 

He laughed. "Oh yeah, that is what we decided isn't it."

Matt glanced over at Tyler and heaved a small sigh. No matter what he tried, he could never beat her at luck based games.

That's about the time Allen walked in. He blinked at them. They were all sitting in a circle, playing cards as if it were Friday Night Game Night. It was quite the sight. "Um..."

"Oh, welcome back." Said Riley with a wave. The other three joined her by waving briefly before going back to the game. 

Kevin glanced to him. "What's with the new look?" Instead of his black cloak and rough clothing, the redhead was wearing a nice green long sleeved shirt and dark jeans.

Allen sighed. "Long story short...I got soaked." He raised a brow at the answer but didn't push further. The thug sat down in between Kevin and Matt. "What are you guys doing anyway?"

Tyler looked at him, a brow raised. "What? Haven't you ever played Go-fish?" He gave a strange look before shaking his head 'no'. They blinked at him before dealing him into the game.

And that, my dear readers, is what become the end of Tyler's reign...

"NO! Not again!!!" Called Tyler after another defeat as Allen, the new king, laughed and took her card.

The other three found it more entertaining to watch rather than to play and gave up so the two could restart. They watched the truth unfold. The truth that Allen, who had never played before now, was a Go-fish master...There was also another absolute truth...

They had created a monster...

Tyler: 0 Allen: 23

When the question arose on the behalf of the red headed thug, Macy suggested that she go and check with the rest of the search team, now that the search was over. They nodded, watching her run off with a quick goodbye, saying that she would explain everything to them. "Oh! You guys go have some fun before meeting back up with us at the castle!" She giggled before running off. Her friends were so easy to read, even the newer ones.

The remaining four looked to one another. Mai looked to Elizabeth. "What do you want to do Lizzy?"

The princess thought a moment. "I...need some more time to get use to things before heading back to the palace. As much as I want to inform my parents that I'm alright, I still need more time before I can see them. How about we go watch the Lantern Ceremony before heading to the palace? It's my favorite part of the Festival." 

Mai smiled in understanding. "Alright. It's your birthday after all."

So the group headed back towards the docks, watching out in case the overprotective father comes back. When there, Mai rented two boats, seeming that each boat would only hold two people and Mai was the only one with money.

The princess claimed that she wanted to ride with Lucas, again leaving the Captain and Thief by themselves. Mai knew by now that she was being set up, but at this point, she didn't really mind. Zed didn't protest either, in fact, there was a small smirk on his features. Thus, they went out onto the water, the men being forced to row of course.
