"So, will you tell us what we want to know now, then?" Petra asked, eagerly, nearly slapping her hands down onto the table in her excitement, leaning closer to the smirking top-hat.

The man glanced at Lukas, a smirk coming over his face. "Fire away, young man."

Lukas leaned forward a bit, his eyes narrowing. "Who can recite the first 46 digits of pi here in town?"

The other four teenagers exchanged confused looks, but said nothing. Actually, Axel opened his mouth to ask, but Cassie quickly made him be quiet by stepping on his foot.

The top-hat looked blank for a moment while Axel cursed explosively, before snapping his fingers briskly. "Ahhh... her. I don't know much about the Miss, unfortunately, but I know someone who does." The top-hat jerked his thumb behind him at a woman with her hands neatly clasped in her lap. "She knows more about Ms. BonkChoy than I do. Why don't you try her?"

Lukas glanced up from the top-hat at the woman. Her hair appeared to be purple in the dim lighting, but of course it was rather hard for him to make out in the dim light. looking down at the top-hat, he bowed a bit. "U-um, thanks."

Trotting over to the woman, she didn't even appear to notice until they were practically three inches from her. Then she looked up, deep blue eyes twinkling. "Hmm...? Five newcomers coming to ask me for help... do you need something?"

"Well- um, yes please," Cassie spoke up. "W-we want to know where BonkChoy is? Where the one who can... uh, recite the first 46 digits of pi?" She seemed unsure about this, but upon glancing at Lukas he gave her a confirming nod.

The blue-eyed woman stared at them all for a minute, long enough for the atmosphere to become supremely uncomfortable, before lifting an elaborate wooden box out of her lap and setting it neatly on the table, eyes lifted and fixed upon them. "I've been trying to open this jewelry box for some time now, but it's rather difficult, and the clues to open it are extraordinarily cryptic. Will you all help me?" Her eyes flicked around the group, before inclining her head at Olivia. "You- would you help me, please?"

The Enderman hybrid blinked when she leveled a finger at her. "I- ah, okay." She stepped forward to see the box as the woman turned it around so it was the right side up (on Olivia's side, anywyas), an upside-down boy and a girl facing away from each other on the box with a sun fastened to the bottom of the box.

"So, what are the clues?"

The woman set a sheet of paper on the table silently, her eyes still fixed intently on the group. At this point, it was actually beginning to get a little creepy. Olivia kept her eyes on the woman even though internally all she wanted to do right then was scream and knock something over- she didn't like eye contact very much. When the woman's hand withdrew from the paper, Olivia quickly grabbed it and unfolded it so that she could read the message on it- the clues. Or, well, I suppose I should say clue, singular.

"The sun rises when you and I meet, and when the wind blows, you will know my heart."

Olivia read the single clue on the sheet of paper over until she'd practically memorized it, before setting it down and staring at the box sitting in front of her.

Honestly she had no idea how to go about doing this.

No, it couldn't be that difficult, it was just a puzzle. Stay calm and think carefully. Think out of the box. (Olivia had to smile a bit at the unintentional pun.)

When 'you and I' meet...

That was referring to the boy and the girl facing away from each other, right? So she just had to either get them to meet... She tried sliding them sideways towards each other. No good; it was still stuck. So maybe that wasn't it...

Or, no, maybe, she had to make it so that they were 'meeting' eyes with each other...

Slowly, she began to wiggle the boy figure, until there was a slight clicking sound, and she was able to rotate the boy around so he was facing the upside-down girl, before turning the girl around so she was looking at the boy.

A nearly inaudible clicking sound as another latch disengaged. Olivia gave the box a cursory glance, before experimentally wiggling the lid.

Nope- still locked.

So what had the latch unlocked? What had turning around the boy and the girl done?

The sun rises...

Olivia looked at the sun on the box- it was low down on the box, really resting at the girl and boy's feet, almost.

When you and I meet...

They were meeting now, so...

Olivia took the sun thing and gave it an experimental lift, and sure enough, the sun began to 'rise'. Quickly, she slid the sun all the way up to the top of the box until it wouldn't move anymore, revealing a small hole sitting right there on the thing.

Okay, so... progress! But now she was stuck; was she supposed to do something with the hole?

Oh, right.

When the wind blows.

Olivia lifted the box off the table, glancing at the woman for any reaction.

Who was still staring. Seriously, that was getting really creepy.

Lifting the box off the table and up to her mouth, Olivia sucked in a deep breath, before blowing into the hole.

The box suddenly shook, making the sounds of machinery begin to disengage and unwind. Olivia set the box down as fast as she dared and backed away a step as the box kept rattling, a faint music box tune beginning to play, before the lid sprang open rapidly, clacking sharply against the hinges and nearly falling over. "Oh...!" Olivia's dark brown and magenta eye both widened in surprise as the tune grew louder and more lovely than before.

The woman looked at it, before opening one compartment of the box silently, taking out another sheet of paper, and sliding it into Axel's hand- the creeper hybrid looked supremely startled- before turning away again, cupping the box in her hands and no longer staring at them.

All of them crowded around Axel, who slowly opened the paper.

Go to the mines for the next clue about the one you are looking for.


A/N: Haha, the adults are just leading these guys around in this giant scavenger hunt, aren't they? xD

So so far, Lukas, Petra, and Olivia have solved a puzzle. Now it's time for Axel to solve one! And then Cassie x3 I love this game too much.
