The Valedictorians

Teaming up to Make Progress

"We WHAT!?!" Olive yelled. "How is that even possible?!?" Ashley yelled at Jungwon too

"Why are you yelling at me then?!?!!!" The poor guy defended himself. "I'm done" Favour said as she dropped dead on the grass "Tell My sTorY~"

"Oh, shut up. You will continue" Marina said firmly and Favour raised her head slowly with threatening expression. "What was that, Squeakers?" She asked in a low voice and Marina shrunk in terror behind Olive.

"Fighting and yelling won't stop anything. What happened has already happened. Now we need to look for a solution" Joshua said

"It can't only be him who has the next clue, right?" James questioned. "If it is a scavenger hunt planned by the whole school, Seniors all over should have the next clue if we show them the picture" Milo spoke in a calm voice as he participated for the first time

"Milo's onto something there. It's worth a shot" Audrey said and everyone started looking for out for the nearest Senior.

"There! I see a Senior!" Meilin said. "How do you know it's a Senior?" Megan asked. "They're wearing the exact same Uniform all the Seniors we've come across wore" Meilin responded "Ah! Makes sense"

They headed over to the Senior and thankfully, He did know the next riddle. They showed him the picture and he gave the riddle, "Matthew Johnson, Senior in Computer Engineering department, Data Scientist and Analyst. Seems like your team checks out. The riddle is, 'You'll find the key in the Brain of the Elite'"

"That's it?" Yoshi asked. "Yup, Good luck, Kids. We were once in your shoes, Good imes" Senior Matthew said as he walked away like the most carefree human. "Also! Yeah, the next clue, It isn't gonna be a Senior to help you. Gotta figure it out yourselves" He yelled

"Weird dude..." Manolo voiced out gently. "Dude!" Allan said as he smacked Manolo's arm "That's a Senior!" "Doesn't change the fact he's a weird dude!" Manolo yelled back

"We all know you're weirder" Jungwon said "At least, that's what Woo would say right about now" Jungwon said getting lost in thought

"Let's not get side tracked! NO MORE BICKERING! If you're gonna talk, you gonna talk about the hunt and nothing more. UNDERSTOOD!?" Eunice yelled out and everyone turned to her with a shocked expression. "I knew she was gonna blow sooner or now" Camilla whispered

"She can talk?" Roman asked unseriously. "Don't test me" Eunice clapped back.

"Eunice is right, Let's seriously focus. For all we know, we could be at last place" Mighao said.

"LAST PLACE?!?!?" Edmond and Eunice shout in unison. "OH NO, WE DON'T!!" Then they started brainstorming on their own

"What outstanding teamwork" Favour said sarcastically "Boo! Carry me" She said to Jasmine as she backed hugged Jasmine literally putting all her on weight on the poor kid

"Childish time is over. All of us to work now. TO-GE-THER" KC said and everyone huddled up, not too close, just enough to listen

"The key is in the Brain of Elite.... What's that supposed to mean? Felicia asked. "I vote for a literal meaning" Joshua added

"No, It sounds metaphorical to me" Chris said. "The key could be physical but it could also be something else like Knowledge is the key" Beomgyu added. "So it's a book?" Allan asked

"It could also be a person. Remember the origin of Elite maybe it's Elizabeth" Jasmine suggested "Think about it, They've told us the tale twice! Meaning, It could be connected!"

"Where will we find Elizabeth now?" Megan asked. "There could be a statue of her here somewhere" Favour said

"My gut tells me it's not Elizabeth" Yoshi said. "Trust his gut! You will not!.... Regret it" Roman said
