A/N: I managed to post a chapter on my birthday... Ahem, this is where you say HAPPY BIRTHDAY WARCHIEF!🎉🎉🎉

Pilgrim World, Jericho
Y/n Blackwell

Whimsical and old timey music played in my ears thanks to the cheap speakers hung on the wooden towers that held up the sign to this place.

My brows were furrowed in confusion while reading the sign. "Pilgrim World" it said in large yellow steel letters.

"What an alluring sign." I joked while stuffing my hands in the pockets of my uniform. "Out of all places a lead would bring us to." The voice of Maverick spoke out next to me.

Gazing to my right I saw him staring up at the sign in judging disgust. 'Guessing you're not a fan.' I said mentally to the Apparition.

"Oh yeah I'm a huge fan of the attraction that's glorying the people who are responsible for the slaughter of Outcats." Maverick sarcastically said before taking a drag off the cigarette in his hand.

'Fair point.' I thought with a hiss, watching as Maverick scoffed before he took his cigarette out from between his lips and flicked it to the dirt below.

"let's just get what we need and get the fuck out." He said with a tone of impatience.

"Y/n." I turned to the voice to see Wednesday, she had just come off the bus we took to get here.

"Wednesday." I greeted the raven haired girl who only seemed to glare at me in response. "Come along, Crackstone's belongings await." She said before moving ahead of me.

I let out a sigh. "Coming." Maverick then suddenly appeared in front of me with a stare.

"What?" I asked and he shook his head. "Clink."

I furrowed my brows in confusion. 'Clink?'

"That's the sound of the leash attaching to your collar." Maverick said with a condescending tone.

This made me scoff and roll my eyes. 'Knock it off, we're partners in this investigation.'

Maverick then proceeded to roll his eyes. "Whatever you say." After saying this he disappeared into a cloud of smoke and embers.

I let out a scoff before following after Wednesday, catching up to her I made it to her side just as a Woman dressed up as a Pilgrim approached the group of Nevermore students.

"Good morrow, my Nevermore kin." The woman spoke in an accent, seeming to really play the character she portrayed.

"I am Mistress Arlene, a real O.C." Mistress Arlene introduced herself in character. Nevermore students began to look at one another confused. "Original Colonist." Arlene continued.

"Now privvy! Put your cellphones on vibrate and make haste! For you are about to travel back in time to the year of our lore. 1625, to Jericho's first Pilgrim Settlement."

Maverick then suddenly appeared stood next to Mistress Arlene and took a drag off his cigarette. "Wonder how many Outcasts they had to kill to claim it." He said in annoyance before disappearing into smoke and embers.

Mistress Arlene then turned and began to lead the group towards the front of the fake Pilgrim Settlement.

"Yonder." Mistress Arlene stopped before turning to look over at a large building and point it out. "Behold, the meeting house. Inside is a collection of artifacts related to Jericho's most beloved founder, Joseph Crackstone."

Maverick once again appeared in front of Mistress Arlene. "Behold our settlement you damned creatures of hell! These are the creations we've brought up upon ridding you heathens from amongst these lands! And now many generations later we glorify the Colonists who were the root cause of your slaughter! And turned it into a tourist trap!"
