#### North's Day

The next day at school, I was swamped with student council work. Meetings, planning, and paperwork consumed my time, but my mind kept drifting back to the arrow tip and our recent discoveries. South was in the library, reading with Amy, while Leo was with his band, practicing for the upcoming school festival.

We all tried to go about our day as normally as possible, keeping an eye out for anything unusual. School came first for us in Corey Town, but the weight of our secret mission lingered in our thoughts.

"I didn't get to buy anything for Amy at the shopping district," I thought to myself, feeling a pang of guilt. "Maybe I'll just make her a card. The school festival is in two days, and it's on the same day as Amy's birthday. I'll get her a gift by then."

As I continued my duties, my mind wandered to Amy and the festival. I wanted everything to be perfect for her, despite the looming danger we faced.

#### Leo's Determination

Leo, on the other hand, couldn't shake off his encounter with the woman and her Stand, Python. As he practiced with his band, his thoughts were consumed by the need to get stronger and power up his Stand, Limewire. But he had no idea how to do it.

"That woman," Leo muttered to himself, strumming his guitar absentmindedly. "I need to be ready if we meet again."

His bandmates noticed his distraction but didn't press him for details. They knew Leo well enough to understand that when he was ready to talk, he would.

#### South and Amy

In the library, South and Amy were engrossed in their books. Amy, sensing South's distraction, finally asked, "What were you doing yesterday, South?"

Caught off guard, South let it slip, "Uncovering secrets of Corey Town."

Amy's eyes lit up with curiosity. "What do you mean?" she asked, leaning in closer.

Realizing his mistake, South tried to change the subject. "Oh, nothing important. Just some old town legends."

But Amy wasn't easily deterred. She gave him a curious look but decided to let it go—for now.

#### Preparing for the Festival

As the day went on, we all continued with our respective tasks, trying to maintain a semblance of normalcy. The school festival was just around the corner, and it was a welcome distraction from the tension that had been building.

Leo's band was set to perform, and he poured his energy into perfecting their setlist. South helped Amy with decorations, using the opportunity to spend more time with her and keep an eye on her safety. I focused on ensuring the festival ran smoothly, all while planning a special surprise for Amy's birthday.

#### The Calm Before the Storm

The days leading up to the festival were a whirlwind of activity. We were all busy, but the bond between us grew stronger. We knew that whatever challenges lay ahead, we would face them together.

As the festival approached, the excitement in the air was palpable. It was a brief respite from the danger that loomed over us, a chance to enjoy the simple pleasures of life in Corey Town.

But we also knew that this calm was temporary. The real battle was yet to come, and we had to be ready.

### To Be Continued...

The school festival and Amy's birthday were just around the corner, offering a much-needed break from the tension. But the mysteries of Corey Town and the threat of the Stand users still hung over us. We would enjoy the festival, celebrate Amy's birthday, and then, when the time was right, we would uncover the truth. Summer break couldn't come soon enough.
