The 2nd. Task

(Part Two)

"Well, now that we got everything set up why don't we take this time to learn something about each other?" Tatsumi asked as he was watching as the kids had managed to work together to get the campfire going.

A rather thin ten year old boy raised his hand up in the air. "Hai," Tatsumi said.

"The boy stood up. "Air I am Eric age ten. Me and my nine year old cousin Tibiae wanted to know when you were going to appoint assistant leaders?" Eric asked as he stared right into Tatsumi's eyes.

"Hai sir I agree with my cousin that the best way to be prepared in any emergency is to get the important things out of the way as soon as possible." Tibiae added in as he along with his cousin stood up. Both boys had light blond hair and baby blue eyes.

"Well, what would you guys like to do now?" Hisoka asked as they had gotten everything right down to the fire going. A small boy with brown eyes and short brown hair raised his hand. "Yes?" Hisoka asked as he looked over the boy.

"I am Tsuki sir." The boy said. "I wanted to know are you really an adult?" He asked.

"Oh sit down shortie." a boy that looked like he was too old for this group stood up. "What a dumb question. If he wasn't an adult then he wouldn't be doing this." The boy said.

'This boy looks like he might be a bit of trouble.' Hisoka said as he stared at the boy that had black shoulder length hair that was short and spiked up on top, he had green eyes and looked like he could take on any kid. Hisoka looked at Tsuki who looked like he was about to cry. He sighed. "Alright you with the green eyes and black hair that is spiked on top." Hisoka said as he pointed right at the boy.

"Me sir?" The boy said.

"Hai, what is your name, age, and grade?" Hisoka asked.

"Oh my name is Raphael, nine years old, and in the third grade sir." Raphael said.

"Well, you look tall enough to be thirteen." Hisoka said.

"Yes sir I am pretty tall." Raphael said as he stuck his thumbs in his pockets of his uniform.

"Tsuki How old are you and what grade please?" Hisoka asked as he ignored the fact that Raphael was trying to impress him.

"I'm seven years old sir and am in the third grade." Tsuki said in a nervous voice.

"So you skipped a grade then?" Hisoka asked. Tsuki gave a small smile and a nod. "And I am guessing that you were held back right Raphael?" Hisoka asked.

"Hai, Sir I was held back in first grade." Raphael said. He wasn't feeling too proud after that. The others around him started to snicker.

"Right so sit down." Hisoka said. "And yes Tsuki I am an adult." Hisoka said. "Now anymore questions?" Hisoka asked.

It was going on midnight when the Wolves troupe had finally found their way to where they were supposed to be at.

"Hey Yuu isn't it good that our Troupe leader made us his assistant leaders?" a boy asked as he was redoing his shoulder length blond hair back into a ponytail revealing that the sides and back of his head was shaved.

"Yeah Yuri." Yuu said as he was reading over the agenda of what is supposed to be done tomorrow. Yuri had short dark brown hair, blue eyes, and wore glasses. His friend Yuu had green eyes and also wore glasses. They had just finished checking the tents when Hisoka showed up.

"Excuse me." Hisoka said as he made his way up to the two boys.

"Yes sir?" Yuu asked as they turned to face Hisoka.

"Can you help me out with something?" Hisoka asked.

"Sure what is it you need for us to do?" Yuri asked.

"Your troupe leader where is he?" Hisoka asked. "I looked around and didn't see him anywhere." Hisoka said.

"Oh he's in the tent." Yuu said as he restrained from laughing and gave a smile.

"Oh." Hisoka said. "Could you go and retrieve him for me? It is important." Hisoka asked as he wondered why Tsuzuki was in his tent.

"Yes sir." Yuri said.

"Thank you and tell him I will be waiting over there." Hisoka pointed to the path that led to this site.

"Sure thing sir." Yuu said. The two boys ran off to go tell Tsuzuki that the leader of the Bears wanted to speak with im.

Hisoka went over to the path and waited. It took a few minutes but Tsuzuki finally made it to Hisoka. "Hey don't you have kids to look after?" Tsuzuki asked as he gave a small smile.

"I appointed Tsuki and Raphael to keep an eye on things while I was gone." Hisoka said. "Wait … what happen to you?" Hisoka asked as he just noticed the scratches and red spots on Tsuzuki's arms and legs.

"Oh nothing just gotten us lost, walked into poison oak, and got bit by a snake. Don't worry it wasn't poisonous." Tsuzuki said very quickly. "I'll be fine if I can stop itching." He added as he was scratching vigorously at his right arm.

"You really shouldn't itch it." Tatsumi said as he came up behind Hisoka.

"Tatsumi …" Hisoka said in a very calm voice.

"I figured I would need this." Tatsumi said as he showed the first Aid kit to them. "Of course I thought it would be used for kids not adults." Tatsumi said. He opened it up and put on surgical gloves. "Okay come here Tsuzuki lets stop the itching." Tatsumi said. He spoke as if he was talking to a three year old But then again when Tsuzuki heard that Tatsumi was going to stop the itching he was acting just like a three year old.

"When we get you taken care of we will go scout around the surrounding area." Hisoka said. Tsuzuki nodded as he was feeling a lot better when Tatsumi put the rash crème on. It stopped the itching almost instantly.

"Hey Tsuzuki?" Tatsumi asked as he was now treating Tsuzuki's snake bite that was on his finger of his left hand and on his right lower leg.

"Hai?" Tsuzuki responded.

"Are those two there the kids you selected for assistant leaders?" Tatsumi asked. As he looked at Yuu and Yuri who were poking at the fire to get the flame up more.

"Hai, they helped out the most while we were coming here so I and my group agreed that they should be elected." Tsuzuki said as he smiled happily. "Why do you ask?" He added.

"Call them over here." Tatsumi said. Tsuzuki and Hisoka looked at Tatsumi questionably.

"Alright." Tsuzuki said. He got up and cupped his hands around his mouth. "Yuu! Yuri!" He called to them.

"Hai sir!" Yuri called back as both boys looked at Tsuzuki.

"Come over here please!" Tsuzuki responded. Both boys ran towards their scout leader.

"Sir!" Both boys said. Tsuzuki smiled when the two boys brought up two fingers and Saluted.

"What are your names?" Tatsumi asked.

"Yuu sir." Yuu said as he looked at Tatsumi.

"Yuri sir." Yuri said as he to was looking at Tatsumi.

"At ease men." Tsuzuki said and both boys put their hands down and placed both hands behind their backs.

"Well, Yuu and Yuri do you two remember the Law of the Pack?" Tatsumi asked.

"You mean ­The Cub Scout follows Akela. The Cub Scout helps the pack go. The pack helps the Cub Scout Grow. The Cub Scout gives goodwill?" Yuu said.

"Hai. We would like your help." Tatsumi said. "We are going to scout around this area to make sure there isn't anything that is dangerous. Now what we would like you two to do is to check on the other packs. I told my troupe to do the same thing and so did Hisoka. It's can be very dangerous out in the wild so can you do that for us?" Tatsumi asked.

Yuu and Yuri looked at each other then back at Tatsumi. "Hai sir." They both said at the same time.

"We shall take turns to go out and check on the other packs sir." Yuri said.

"Alright thank you." Tatsumi said.

"Don't worry we will be back at least by sunrise." Hisoka said. Tsuzuki started to follow Hisoka and Tatsumi.

"Good luck sir!" Yuri called out to Tsuzuki.

"Watch out for poisonous plants and animals that might bite sir!" Yuu called out.

Tsuzuki waved to them as the three of them walked off.
