HOPES POV

I was in my room with Josie as we were packing for our spring break in New Orleans when I heard a knock on the door. I looked at Josie to see if she was expecting any guest. I walked to the door and saw Dr.Saltzman.

Hope: Hi Dr.Saltzman what are you doing here

Alaric: Hope, Josie I am so sorry to ruin your trip but I need your help.

Josie: What's wrong Dad

Alaric: Well I found the urn and if my theory on this monster is correct I am going to need your help I already told Lizzie so she is ready to go.

Hope: Ok then let us just adjust some things and we will meet you downstairs.

Alaric: Alright

I closed the door after he left and turned to look at Josie

Hope: I am so sorry our trip is being delayed I really wanted you to see where I grew up

Josie: No it's ok let's just go and get back as soon as possible so we can have the rest of spring break to visit New Orlean

Hope : Ok I love you

Josie: I love you too

Hope: Ok then since we probably won't need that much stuff I will grab my backpack that I was gonna take it already has the essentials

Josie: Ok then let's go

—————————————————

After piling into Dr.Saltzman's van we hit the road along with Lizzie, Kaleb, Dorian, and Emma.

Kaleb: Dr.Saltzman this van is very ... white of you

Alaric: It's retro

Lizzie: It's a gas-guzzling atrocity on wheels.

Hope: Yeah I don't know why we couldn't have taken one of my cars or two of them

Alaric: Because Hope I know what kind of cars you drive and they would have not flown under the radar

Hope: Whatever, anyways I brought snacks.

Lizzie: Oh sweet do you have any gummy bears

Hope:Yeah sure here

I handed her the bag before passing the rest of the snack to the back where Dorian and Emma were

Lizzie: I wish we were on the road to New Orleans by now I hear the shopping scene is to die for

Hope: Trust me I know I wanted to surprise my Aunts since I haven't been back in a while. But it was my fault we even got infected just because I though the unicorn was cute so I guess these were the the consequences

Alaric: Girls? We're gonna be in this classic automobile for six hours so no complaining

————————————————-
After 6 hours of Dr.Saltzman singing, Josie puking, and Lizzie asking if we were there yet we finally pulled over into the town square of Maple Hollows after dropping of Dorian to look for the urn.

We climbed out of the car

Kaleb: Wow, welcome to Maple Hollows.

Alaric: Girls, you take the fountain area. See what you can find out.

We all walked over to a fountain before Josie said she would go talk to some people and I went to go talk to some other people. I came back with no luck just as Josie was.

Josie: Fun fact: this town has the biggest ball of yarn in the country. And nobody's seen anything strange

She came and sat on my lap after I took a seat on the side of the fountain
