The rest if the team would later learn that Cassandra and Jacob had an eventful night resulting in her first yo-kai medal. They went to Westfield mall, a lavish shopping center with multiple floors, a food court basement (with exceptionally high end food), and a movie theatre.

"Seems as good of a place to start as any." said Cassandra.

"Key word being start; either of you sensing anything?"Jacob asked looking at the vastness.

"We can start at the theatre floor and work our way down I guess." Cassandra suggested if nothing else it would be fun- after all this was a mall.

At the theatre level she saw a group of 3 college age kids trying to pool their money. "d—m it! Why did we go shopping?! I've been looking forward to this movie for weeks!" said one girl.

"and why did we buy this- what even is this?" said a boy going through his bags.

"That's defiantly the work of Spenp." said Komasan "That darned yo-ki makes people over spend."

"Is there only one of them or does he get allot of overtime pay around the holidays." Jacob smirked.

But just as he was asking, he noticed Cassandra talk to the group. She offered to buy their tickets asking only that they "pay it forward."

She was smiling as the act of generosity brought a warm feeling to her heart.

"Almi!" shouted Komasan."Quick use your watch!"

"no. liked how that felt. I mean look at them." the boy even gave her the strange impulse buy he could not identify; it was one of those desk toys with the swinging silver balls. "let's focus on finding Spenp."

"but.." Komasan see Almi following them. The yo-kai was a giant red clam shell with a purple tongue and a single green eye. But it wasn't inspiriting Cassandra, it was keeping its distance, as if it was observing them.

They traveled through the lower floors trying to seek out Spenp's victims. After 2 hours of shining the yo kai watch through store after store Jacob had an idea. "We need to focus on the specialty the stores places where people make allot of impulse buys."

"Bath and body works!" Cassandra immediately said (primarily because she wanted to go there anyway.)

The store that sold hundreds of candles soaps and lotions that people collected like trading cards for their unique scents.

They found Spenp immediately. The giant green clam shell was floating from shopper to shopper. Cassandra flashed her watch locating the green clam yo-kai.

"What do you think you're doing!" Cassandra shouted at the yo-kai.

"What does it look like I'm doing, the same thing I always do, make people mindlessly spend money!" said the clam upset that she was distracting him from his work.

"But why mindlessly?" she asked, genuinely curious.

"Because people don't know what they want. Someone could go in to a store, stare at an item for hours weighing the pros and cons then leave without the item only to regret it later." The yo-kai explained.

"You do this because you care." she smiled.

"Exactly! You people say money can't buy happiness, but you never know unless you try!" the yo-kai was now beaming with happiness.

"You make allot of sense. Can I ask, did you come through a portal?" she asked the now friendly clam.

"No I'm here all the time, the power emanating from the portal has allowed me to work more effectively, but I'm pretty much in the human world at all times." Spenp glowed, "You're all right by me. I'd like you to have my friendship medal." A coin with an illustration of Spenp appeared.

"and my friend came through the portal you mentioned- he's right behind you. If you excuse me I have to get back to work."

"Well don't work too hard." Cassandra waved goodbye, "I'm hungry, let's go to the food court."

"What about Almi?" Komasan asked.

"There's something I want to do first." She knew there was a shop in the food court that sold cream puffs, something that always made her happy. She bought 5 dozen and started handing them out to people in the food court.

Almi made the choice to reveal it's self. "Is she like this all the time?" the red shell asked Jacob.

"Yes, yes she is. She's one special girl."Jacob smiled. He could see what happened; Cassandra wasen;t being affected by Almi, her positive energy attracted Almi to her.

Cassandra turned around to face Almi. "cream puff?" she placed a cream puff in the giant shell's long purple tongue.

"thanks, friend- I have something for you too." Almi glowed and produced a friendship medal. "

"Well by golly you have 2 yo-kai friends already! Well 3 including lil old me." Said Komasan.

Oh yea- as for the portal the yo-kai responsible is Ungai Sanmenkyo. Lets just say you're going to need more than a team of 3." Almi said before vanishing.

"I guess we should try to contact Eve and Ezekiel." Jacob suggested. He tried Eve's number but it straight to voice mail, the same with Ezekiel's. Why would they both have their phone's off?

"Lets back to the annex see if there' a way to track them." Jacob suggested as Cassandra was still eating cream puffs.

They went back to the annex and tried several methods of locating the other team, but it was as if they just disappeared.

"what do we do now?" asked Jacob.

"If we can't find them, maybe we should just wait for them to find us." Cassandra used her phone to look up a cheap hotel, since neither of them had allot of money to spend in one of the most expensive cities."geary parkeway hotel". Since it was getting late they used the transporter to go straight to the lobby, the checked in and went straight to bed. Which was why Komasan took it upon himself to leave a message for Eve.

The next day they woke to Eve and Ezekiel , with yo-kai experts Nate and Katie knocking on the door.

"how did you find us?"Asked Cassandra she slept in her regular clothes and her hair was a mess.

"Komasan left a voice message and well the motel really isn't that big" eve said.

"Ahem!" Whisper wanted credit.

"and Whisper can detect the presence of other yo-kai- or so he says" said Nate. "I'm Nate, this is Katie."

"I'm Cassandra and this is Jacob." She motioned to the bed as he was still asleep.

Komasan took it upon himself to wake Jacob up in the one of most awkward ways possible. "Jacob we don' gots ourselves visitors!" the little yo-kai said jumping on his chest until he awoke coughing.

"what the.." he looked to see the rest of his team, plus the yo-kai experts.

"hi." Jacob groaned getting out of bed.

Eve explained what happened in Las Vegas, how the ratio of humans to yo-kai needs to be 1-1 in order to cross over. Then Cassandra told her group's story of how she now had 2 yo-kai medals of her very own.

"I guess the question of the day is -can a yo-kai watch summon more then 1 yo-kai?" Cassandra asked Nate.
