First, the campers got turned into aggressive little kids, and now, nothing was where it used to be. Every cabin was in a spot he didn't remember. He searched for an hour until he finally found the trail leading to the caves.

When he finally got there, he sniffed the air, immediately smelling Josephine. He followed the trail into a cave. He saw a little girl and immediately pounced. "Hey!" She shouted angrily.

That wasn't Josephine. He stared at the girl with wide eyes. It was Bree. "Bree, where's Josephine? Why are you here?"

"Josephine went to do something at the ocean. I don't know what. She just told me to stay here."

Zavid rubbed his face. "What is this? Some sort of secret society? Is Josephine the Grandmaster?"

Bree shrugged. "I'm just as confused as you are."

Zavid hoisted her on to her feet. "You're coming with me."

Five-year old Bree gave him a curious look, yelping as he dragged her out of the cave. "Where are we going?"

"To the ocean," Zavid said shortly, more focused on finding out what's going on.

"But Josephine told me-"

"I don't care if she told you to stay," Zavid said. "I need to know what's happening. And you're going to help me."

Bree sighed. "I guess..."

Zavid stopped in his tracks. "Wait. Have you seen Adira?"

"Uh...what's she look like?"

Zavid shook his head. "Uh, never mind."

Bree shrugged. Zavid spotted a tiny figure in the distance and broke into a sprint. Bree yelped, trying to run fast enough to keep up with him. Her feet gave out and she fell down, now literally being dragged. Zavid got closer and closer to the tiny child. Bree wasn't making any noise while being dragged, so Zavid had no idea. Finally, he saw the child plainly. Adira. Perfect.

He caught up to her. "Adira!" He panted, breathless. He ran on to the grass. The little girl whipped around, crying.

He stopped, letting go of Bree's hand and walking up to Adira. "Are you okay?" He asked the crying girl.

"Is she okay?" Bree snapped, getting to her tiny toddler feet. She spat grass out of her mouth. "She's not the one who just got dragged!"

Zavid turned. "I didn't drag-" he stopped when he noticed the dirt and grass stains. "Oh, sorry. Also, you guys have mature vocabulary for being de-aged. The Gods are giving me a REALLY weird punishment," he muttered.

"What?" Bree asked, raising an eyebrow.

Adira stopped crying. "I'm sorry. I didn't mean to let Askurra and Neeza and Jossypheen out."

Zavid sighed. "It's alright. You can make it up to me by helping the two of us."

Adira nodded. "Okay."

Zavid grinned. "Come on, then!"

MEANWHILE, AT THE BIG HOUSE...

"THE GREAT VICTORY"

Jasmine tapped the floor repeatedly with her little finger. Without the toys, all the little kids were bored. Calla stared through the pen bars, then reached through them with her little hand, attempting to knock over the Lego bin. There were boxes underneath it. If she could push the boxes and make them fall, maybe the Lego bin would tip over and dump the colorful toy blocks into the play pen. Calla tried and tried to reach the bottom box, but to no avail.

She whined, desperate. She kept trying. That's when she noticed something Zavid dropped into the pen earlier. A marker. Grinning and giggling, she grabbed that. She reached it through the pen bars. It took a long time. A long time. She pressed and pressed with the marker. It was taking all the strength out of her tiny body. But, at last, the Lego bin tipped over. The little kids were showered with slightly painful rainbow toy bricks. They ignored the painful part. They giggled and squealed happily. Calla eagerly began to build...something. Jasmine joined in, and they built a bunch of different things.

Askira watched them from the Box, eyes narrowed. She kept making disgusted noises, spitting out insults and cuss words. But they went unheard. Frustrated, Askira just leaned against the side of the Box, closing her eyes and trying to daydream to block out their happy noises.

Calla and Jasmine chatted back and forth as they built, humming and laughing. When Ben became conscious, he and James started building a Trojan horse, Ben wanting to replicate his first one, which had been perfect until Nesia destroyed it.

Yes, this was a victory. A great, great victory. Thanks to Calla.

Zavid stopped abruptly, causing Bree to slam into his legs. She fell on her back, slightly dazed. He smelled the air. It hung heavy with Asher and Fraya's scents. They were fresh. He narrowed his eyes. They were there.

Sure enough, what felt like an invisible little kid hit him. Adira and Bree retreated into the bushes for shelter.

Zavid heard a thump as he flung the invisible child off. He turned around. Fraya was visible again, shaking her head. "Get him, Asher!"

Zavid should have been prepared, but definitely wasn't expecting Asher to grab his arm and yank it. "Ouch!" He exclaimed, glaring at Asher. Fraya punched his knee. His reflexes kicked in. Literally kicked. His foot slammed into Fraya's stomach, causing her to double over. Asher and Zavid stopped their fighting immediately. "Oh gosh, Fraya," he murmured to the little girl. "Je suis désolé. I-I didn't mean to hit you."

Fraya rubbed her stomach, shaking her head. "I'm fine."

Zavid sighed. "I'm just trying to find Josephine."

Asher nodded. "We are, too."

Zavid raised his eyebrows. "Really?"

The two little kids nodded. Zavid grinned. "Then let's team up."

Fraya and Asher exchanged looks, then started whispering to each other. Fraya gave Zavid a suspicious look, then whispered to Asher more. Finally, they both nodded. Fraya looked at Zavid. "I guess...we'll do it."
