Chapter Two: May the Hunt Begins:

Pat held up the envelope in the air.

“Your mission is to find the Butter Flower!” he said. “Lights!” The lights grew dim in the room as a projection screen drew down. A projector rose up from the middle of the floor. The machine clicked on and started rolling. An image of a big yellowish-white flower appeared.

“Behold!” Pat said. Everyone stared at the screen. Was that flower sparkling?

“It’s been hidden on this very island,” he said. “Where is it? You have find it. I will be split you up into eight groups. You have three days to find this flower.” The lights turned back on. Pat reached behind his back and pulled out a top hat.

 “Come up and pull out your card,” he said. “What you draw will be your team.” No one moved at first. They looked at each other with confused chatters. Pat tapped his foot.

“Come on!” he said. “Get up and get moving!” No one moved again. T.J. finally got up and walked over to the hat. He reached inside. Bemmer followed behind. Then Soot came. Pretty soon, everyone else followed.

Team A: Margaret, Brooke, and Soot

Team B: Patricia, Mandy, and Louise

Team C: Daisuke, Amethyst, and Kellie

Team D:  Tony, Mosh, and Art

Team E: Jun-Jun, Sapphire, and Victoria

Team F: Bemmer, Amber, and Katie

Team G: Iris, Diamond, and Sarah

Team H: Noiz, T.J., and Emerald

Pat waited while everyone sat down in their respective seats. He grinned once everyone settled into place.

“The hunt begins… right… now!” he shouted. “I wish you nothing but the best! Have fun with this hunt. You can do it!” The old man pulled out a confetti gun and pulled the trigger.

Pop!

And just like that, everyone was off.
