It was once again Saturday and everyone had gathered to figure out who the winner of the struggle trophy was.
"After a long wait and a troubling qualifier round, we are finally ready and able to announce the winners of the matches." The referee from last time said to the over excited crowd.
"As you all know we have four people who take places in the spring matches to move forward into the summer matches. Our fourth winner is… Aqua! Our third winner is… Xion! For our second winner we have… Roxas! And last but not least, our first place winner and the winner of our preliminary trophy is… SHIYA!"
The crowd cheered for the winners and Ezekiel yelled and jumped. He hugged Shiya tightly and looked him in the eyes.
"I'm so proud of you!" He said over the cheers. Shiya shook his head and smiled. "Let's go!"
The two made their way through the crowd and up to the stage, Ezekiel helping Shiya the whole time. They got on the stage and the cheers seemed to increase. Lea could be heard over everyone. Roxas, Xion and Aqua were already on the stage, watching and clapping as Shiya and Ezekiel made their way up.
"Here he is!" The referee said with a smile. He held out the trophy as Shiya limped his way over, the tendons in his legs still slightly messed up.
"Looks like that round with Larxene messed you up a bit huh?" The ref said, handing over the trophy.
"Sadly," Shiya said with a small smile.
"Well I'm sure it'll be fine." The ref said. His voice grew louder at the start of his next sentence.
"Hold that thing up and show some pride!"
Shiya awkwardly held up the trophy and looked over the crowd.
"As runner up awards, the other contestants will be receiving ribbons." The referee added.
The awards ceremony obviously wasn't long. A few people came up and congratulated Shiya and a few others asked Shiya if he would even compete in the summer tournament. Ezekiel kept them back and answered for the flustered Shiya with "If he's any worse than now, then no. Oh, and only if he wants to."

The next few weeks passed by uneventful. Nothing significant happened, aside from Vanitas messing his arm up even more and having to wear his cast longer. Going against the doctors orders and jumping off the roof of your house and onto your neighbors trampoline isn't the smartest thing to do when you have a broken arm.
It was finally the big meet for the Super Hide and Seek Game. All players were to meet up at Seaside Park where everyone would be accounted for and give their teams.
"Alright everyone!" yelled Kairi in the huge mass of people. Her, Sora, Riku, Naminé, Xion, Roxas, Ventus and Vanitas were all standing off to the side of the gathered players. They were ready to try and start the event but it was hard considering how many people showed up.
"Well, you're off to a great start huh?" Vanitas said sarcastically. Kairi looked at him and frowned.
"Hey, guys!" Riku tried.
"This isn't gonna work." Sora said sadly.
Vanitas threw his arms down to his side. He winced a little at the pain in his arm from doing the action and stomped away. The others ignored him as he climbed to the top of the jungle gym on the playground.
"HEY! EVERYBODY SHUT THE HELL UP AND LISTEN!" He yelled over everyone. The whole crowd grew silent.
"Screw you Vanitas!" Yelled someone in the crowd.
"What'd you say! I'll kick you scrawny ass you little wringed neck mother fucker!" Vanitas screamed angrily.
"Vanitas!" Ventus scolded. "Calm down!"
"No, fuck him!" Vanitas said as he started to search the crowd for the person who might have said the earlier comment.
"Which one of you skinny mother fuckers said that! Was it you string bean!" He yelled as he pointed at someone. Ventus shook his head with a look of panic on his face. He climbed to the top of the jungle gym and pulled on Vanitas's good arm.
"Vanitas stop or we'll get kicked out of the park and wont be able to do the game!" Ventus tried.
"Hey, Vanitas," Terra yelled from below.
"Terra, Aqua!" Ventus smiled.
Sora climbed to the top of the slide nearby and started yelling and waving his arms to get the crowds attention. He had his phone up to his ear and was smiling widely.
"Hey guys guess what!" He yelled.
"What?" yelled back some of the people in the crowd. Sora stood quietly with his phone up to his ear, listening.
"We're gonna get ready and start our game!" He paused again and listened. "But first you all have to go over there to where Kairi is standing. That chick with the papers and her phone out! The one with the red hair!"
People looked over each other to see Kairi waving the papers above her head. She started talking into her phone and when stopped Sora started.
"You gotta go over there and tell her you name and she'll mark you off the list and you can play!" Sora smiled. He slid down the slide and ran over to Kairi, hanging up his phone in the process. When he reached his small group of friends there was already a huge group crowding around Kairi.
"Hey, hey!" Riku said, trying to usher people away from her.
"Guys form a line, geez!" Roxas frowned.
"Guys, I wont be able to help you if you don't get in a line!" Kairi yelled. Everyone tried to form a line quickly but many ended up having to go to the back.
The line went by somewhat fast. Lucky for them the list had been printed in alphabetical order instead of by who signed up first. No one who's name wasn't on the list and everyone who was on the list showed up.
"Okay, first off," Kairi started. "Our total number of contestants is sixty seven! Those who are between the ages of ten and thirteen need to be accompanied by someone who is at least fourteen! You should already have someone of age with you! If you don't please come over to use and we will help you." No one came over in the next three minutes so they decided to move on.
"Now we will decide who the seekers are! Since there are sixty seven people, including us, the people who created the event, we will need six seekers! Each one having to find ten people! If you'd like to be a seeker please step forward! If no one wants to seek then we will all be the seekers."
"It's the news!" Naminé exclaimed, pointing towards the parking lot of the park.
"Great." Riku mumbled.
"I got this." Vanitas said, shoving his sleeves up to his elbows and making his way over to the news van.
"Vanitas," Terra called after him.
"Vanitas wait!" Ventus yelled. He ran after him and tried to talk him out of doing anything irrational.
"Alright everyone!" Kairi yelled again. "The news is here. We do not want them to be able to get any information about what we are doing or where we are going after this! Do not tell them anything! Now, back to business. Do we have any people who want to be seekers?"
They all waited and looked around. No one came forward. Kairi shrugged and looked to Sora.
"Guess you get to be the seekers!" He smiled.
"Okay, the seekers will be as follows. Raise you hand when I call your name! Naminé, Xion, Olette, Zexion, Lexaeus and myself, Kairi.
"The rules are as follows! You can find a hiding spot and you can move to a different one if you wish. You may not hide in a bathroom but you may use it. No damaging property, stealing or shoving people out of the way. Once you have been found, your marker will be taken away and you can freely hang out in the mall or go home. If you are the designated keeper of a child between the ages of ten and thirteen then you must stay with them at all times. If your child is the opposite gender than you and they have to go to the bathroom simply take off your marker and hold it off to your side. You will not be tagged out. If you are using the restroom and a seeker happens to be in the restroom with you, you cannot be tagged or counted as out. The seeker must ignore your presence and wait until they see you somewhere else. Remember you cannot leave the mall unless you have been marked off the list. If there is an emergency and you have to leave just go ahead and leave. If you can, text someone and tell them to tell us. The seekers know the rules and will follow them all.
"Everything is and will be recorded so you can watch it later on the website! Now, please for an orderly line and step forward so we may give you all your markers."
The line this time was formed easily and every person was able to get their markers, green bandanas.
"You're aloud to where the marker anywhere you like as long as it is visible and not in an inappropriate spot!" Olette yelled to the people. "The seekers will be wearing red bandanas! Once you are found you must remove your bandana and give it to the seeker. If you get tired of playing the game, simply stand out in the open or walk around till you find a seeker. Hold out your bandana and tell them you name. They will take your bandana and mark off your name. You are then free to go home or where ever you please. If you are found while hiding, tell the seeker your name and they will mark you off the list! Please remember not to run around the mall or around in the stores. If you see a seeker coming for you and you don't wish to be found, you can walk quickly away from them or hide else where. There will be NO RUNNING AT ALL!"
"Man, they sure are serious with this aren't they?" Lea asked Isa.
"They have to be. We could get in huge trouble for this." Isa said. Ienzo nodded in agreement and pulled on the back of Isa's shirt.
"What's the matter?" Isa asked him. Ienzo held up his green bandana and pointed to his wrist with it. Isa understood and tied the bandana on him.
"I wonder where Shiya and Ezekiel are." Lea said, looking around.
"I wonder how the news found us." Isa frowned.
Over by the news truck there was a group of unhappy teenagers. Aqua, Terra and Ventus had followed Vanitas in order to make sure he didn't do anything stupid to the news crew.
"Hello there young man, mind telling me what's going on here? We received word of gang activity taking place." The new woman said. Vanitas looked at her like she was crazy.
"Are you serious?" He asked her incredulously. "We're playing a game!"
"All of you?"
"Uh, yeah!"
"Vanitas, lose the attitude." Ventus scolded.
"How can I when she just said the dumbest thing on the planet!" Vanitas exclaimed.
"Look, this is a game six teenagers came up with, it's nothing more and there's no reason it needs to be made into a news story." Terra stated.
"Please leave." Aqua added firmly.
"Come on," Terra said turning to leave. Aqua placed a hand on Ventus and Vanitas's shoulder and pulled them away. The news crew stood their ground and tried to follow them.
"Dude fucking leave! There record that! HA HA!" Vanitas yelled at the camera man.
"Vanitas, ignore them." Aqua said quietly.
Riku looked up and noticed the camera crew trying to follow Terra, Aqua, Ventus and Vanitas.
"We have to go." He said to Kairi.
"Alright everyone!" Olette yelled. If you have a vehicle please drive it and anyone you can fit in it to the mall. When you get there you must wait by the main entrance so we can do a roll call and make sure everyone is there. Do not answer any questions any news crew asks you. If you need a ride please stand over here with the seekers!"
It was simple enough giving directions. Actually finding people who were nice enough to give rides was different. Lucky enough Riku and managed to let his rich ass family let him borrow the limo and the driver. He took a few strangers and a few people he knew. Sora opted out of the limo ride and decided to ride with his brothers. Kairi, Naminé and Xion rode with Aqua and Terra and Hayner and Pence drove themselves plus a few others.
When they all had managed to get rides to the mall, a few camera crews were there waiting for them.
Author's Notes: Foking news crews! Tsk tsk! Nosey little bugars. Yeah so next chapter, pretty sure you all know what's gonna be up and down and left and right. Sort of. You all have the general idea right? Oh and sorry for so much swearing! I fell like Vanitas would be the kind to drop the F bomb every five seconds though. Just me?
I hope you enjoyed reading! Please review, comment, follow, stalk or do whatever it is you do! :D
