"Clarence, why do your dumbass clues have to be so cryptic? Why did you not just tell me where you were going? I swear when I find you kind I'm gonna clobber you!" I have been wandering the forest all day following the clues to no avail. I noticed that it was becoming dark, to my dismay, so I decided to take shelter for the night. I found a hollowed tree and settled down for the night to quickly get some sleep.

I woke up extremely early the next morning to something rustling in the bushes. I stood up and grabbed my gun then took a fighting stance waiting for the intruder to come out. When it did, I saw the green bean from the barn I decided to mess with him to take off some of my stress

"Oh you gotta be kidding me right?" looks like he did not see me or hear me yet, which is weird cause I have a loudmouth. He then noticed me and he looked kinda like a frightened kitten, I decided to speak calmly so he wouldn't run off like one.

"Hey! what are you doing out here?" he asked me I decided to oblige him with a response

"I could be asking you the same thing, green bean." he then looked at me confused. It's funny since he scrunches up his nose while doing so.

"Green bean? my name is Armon! Have you eaten something to make you hallucinate?" He tried to act tough yet again making me burst out laughing, I almost fell to the ground as he looked at me and finally realized why I'm so humored. "Are you making fun of me?" I calm down enough to say

"Yes, of course I'm making fun of you!" He looked so angry it made me want to laugh even more! Then, he pulls his sword out and aims it at my chest, his stance is sloppy and it's obvious he hasn't wielded a sword before. Heck the sword itself looks unbalanced in his hand. I dismissed my thoughts and decided to continue to mess with him.

"So we meet again, but this time you have a sword and not a cat!" He hold it higher making me slightly annoyed. "Boy, put that down before you hurt yourself... and get moving on and go back home, your mommy is probably worried." He looked at me with fury in his eyes.

"No can do, I'm on an important mission I have to find all four of the power stones!" Once he says that, my joking demeanor has fully vanished from my mind.

"Why are you looking for the power stones? I left you the water stone, that doesn't give you the right to go after the rest."

"So you're the one who left that for me! Well, if you must know I was sent on this journey because I'm a forgotten wizard! I'm on a mission to find them and bring down the king!" He stood proudly making me laugh again.

"You? take down the king?" I shook my head "I have tried, and I am the leader of the leaf guard! So what makes you think you can take him down? I mean, you say you're a forgotten wizard, but I'm guessing you don't know how to use your powers." He sank down a little, I could see the gears turning in his head.

"No I don't know how to use my powers... But! I'm learning, I don't know if can take down the king, all I know is that I have to." after he said that i stood there thinking Clarence could help him with his powers, and I could help him bring the king down. Only if we got him trained though

"Okay, I know someone who can teach you how to use your powers correctly. If you want, you can tag along with me, I can teach you how to fight, so what do you say? Green bean.'' He sighed when he heard the name again but understood that he doesn't have many other options.

"Ya know what? It would be nice for the company, so yeah, let's do this!"

"We'll go lay down and sleep. We have an early day tomorrow."
