"ALRIGHT, SO, BEFORE WE SEPERATE, we have a plan to mark which area is which." S1 mentioned, "We prepared these small bits of wood to stick into the ground at each section. This place is big, so it'll be better; So we can see each section clearly." She explained as she picked up a pile of sticks.

"S3, can you get those markers we found yesterday, please?" S1 asked and S3 nodded, jogging over towards the cabinet where they got the felt tip pens and labels on the first day.

"We also prepared these." S5 held up four pocket-sized notepads, "Just incase we spot anything that we can't bring back and need to jot it down."

S3 came back with the markers and handed them over to S1. "Thank you very much."

"No problem, unnie." S3 slipped back in line, behind S1.

She began to write on the pieces of wood. Two sets of each colour. She handed two to S5, two to S13 and two to S14, keeping the other two for herself. "Put these in the grass just infront of the trees at the edges of your own section."

"Oh, and if there's any problem, get your loudest mouth to scream, okay dokey?" S1 declared and smiled, passing a pen to each leader for their notepads.

S5 looked towards S1 and she nodded. "Alright, everyone. After we set the markers," She held up the sticks in her hands, "We'll search. Just a reminder, don't be scared. But, be careful, please!"

"Okay!" Everyone replied and the leaders started heading towards the corners, their team behind them.

"Okay, so, who's the fastest runner here?" S1 asked the Blue team as she walked.

S8 stuck her hand up, "I'm pretty fast, but there could be someone faster than me here." She shrugged.

S1 looked around at her members, "Anyone object?" She asked with her eyebrows raised.

They shook their heads. S1 nodded, "Alright. Good to know." She paused again and looked at them, "And, uh, who's the loudest here?"

S8 stuck her hand up again, "Probably me... Again." She smiled sheepishly.

"I agree, one hundered percent." S3 said with her hand up aswell.

"Me too." The others said.

S1 laughed, "Okay, then. That's settled."

S14 looked back at her team, team Yellow, "Alright, is anyone good at spotting things? Or, well, is anyone not good at spotting things?" She asked, walking towards the edges of their section.

No one replied and so she nodded, "Great. Don't feel pressured. Just take it easy. If you spot anything that we can't bring back, tell me and i'll write it down in the notepad."

"Okay." They replied, following behind.

S5 cleared her throat as she looked back towards the Green team, "I have a few questions. Firstly, can anyone climb trees?"

S7 raised her hand, "I'll most likely climb any tree i need to." She claimed with a nod.

"Uh... I've climbed a few before, but it depends on which kind of tree. I'll be happy to attempt either way, though." S17 replied shyly with a small smile.

S5 nodded, "Okay, great. Secondly, is there anyone here who is particularly good at finding things? Like searching thoroughly?"

S16 and S20 raised their hands. S4 shook her head, "I have really bad eyesight. If anything goes wrong, i can be the screamer." She stuck her thumbs up with a nonchalant smile.

"Okay, then, i'll keep that in mind. S7, S16, S17 and S20, i hope you do well... S4, you make sure no one gets hurt, then, alright?" S5 said, finally reaching the first edge of their section. She looked out to roughly measure where she should place it; Right in the centre of the back of the HAUS, though about twnety metres away from it.

Just after the Orange team placed their markers at the edges of their section, S13 looked back at them with a determined smile, "Let's do this, guys!"

They headed into the start of the woods, stepping on branches and stones and whatnot. "Anyone scared?" S13 asked, holding up a long branch for others to pass through.

S2 nodded, "Me." She breathed in, "Just a little bit."

"It's okay. Just stick by someone." S13 explained, following after the others after ducking under the large branch herself.

S6 walked towards S2 and hooked their arms together, "I'll be your wife for today, S2-ah."

S2 blushed slightly and whipped her head towards her, "What?! Why can't you just be my friend, or something?"

"Because a wife is more special." S6 shrugged and looked ahead of them. S2 sighed and accepted it.

Since S10 is closest in age with S13 (and is actually a few months older), she comfortably walked up to her and asked her if she had any idea about what she was doing, "So, leader, what's the plan?"

S13 shrugged, "I don't know."

"What do you mean you dont know?" She asked, her eyebrows lifting slightly.

"Well, i just became a leader, like, half an hour ago. I've not thought much about it." She explained, "And as much as i hate to admit, i've never really had good ideas for plans."

S10 pursed her lips and nodded in understanding. "Hmm, i guess that makes sense. Well, maybe we should think of one just now?"

S13 nodded, "Good idea... I think we should just look out for anything. Wing it, but don't just skim your eyes over everything... Like, just look thoroughly." She thought aloud, her fingers resting on her chin.

"Did you hear that, girls?" S10 asked, looking towards her teammates.

"Huh?" S11 asked as she turned around, from previously talking with S9.

"I don't have a plan, but the idea is to just watch out for everything. By everything, i mean every... Little... Thing. You got it?" S13 explained, determined, as her eyes pierces through them.

The girls' eyes widened slightly at her tone. S13 is usually very friendly and humorous with the girls on the daily but, at the moment, she sounded a little... Scary.

"Yes, ma'am!" They exclaimed in unison, out of fear. Their backs straightening as they followed their leader deeper into the woods.
