-Back To Endercon-

(3rd Person)

(7th Part)

Jesse, Reuben, Petra, and Blair then made it back to the town where Endercon was held at. They all walked in the street. Blair stood behind them with her hands on her hips while she walked her hair thumping on her back while she walked.

Petra and Jesse were in front of Blair walking slowly through the streets the bright lights helped lead the way to where they were travelling to. Petra then tilted her head to look at Jesse. "So, when we're making the deal. I need you to let me do the talking, okay? I just don't want anything to screw this up. Or... anyone."
Jesse then nodded a little and then tilted their head curiosity in their eyes. "Should I be nervous about this?"

"Given your personality, your life experience, and everything else you've done to make it to this moment? ..Yes." Petra responded as she continued to move her legs throughout the busy street.

Then they made it to the middle of the town where the Rainbow Beacon stood. It's colorful lights switching to different colors. Blair looked in awe as she saw it in person. She thought it looked beautiful as she watched the different colors swirl around in the sky. Olivia and Axel stood there with crossed arms as they looked into the Ocelot's colorful beacon. Olivia's face had a mix of envy and disappointment as her eyebrows went low. She wished they won this year and it wasn't possible. The ocelots won again...
Axel's face had hints of jealousy and frustration. He couldn't believe Lukas and his pussy cat friends won again this year. His eyebrows were furrowed as he continued to look at the bright colors in the sky.

Olivia and Axel then turned around and gave a surprised look and a glad look when they saw Jesse and Reuben and were a little bit shocked with the other two people they didn't expect. Olivia then took a few steps forward with a big smile on her face. "Jesse!" Axel exclaimed. His furrowed eyebrows turned back to normal. "A-and... Petra?!... And Blair was it?"
Blair and Petra nodded at Olivia's blurt in surprise. Petra had a small smile on her face her hands on her hips. Blair had a neutral face as she crossed her arms and glanced away and continued looking at the Rainbow Beacon.

Jesse then cleared their throat and stepped forward a little with their chest high in pride and excitement. "Hey, you all know Petra and Blair... my new super-close friends. We're super-close now." Jesse exclaimed with an embarrassed smile realizing what they just said out loud.

Petra then facepalmed as she heard what they said and sighed. Reuben then shook his head with pity. Blair then looked back at Jesse with a doubtful chuckle as her arms tightened around her chest as she hugged herself tighter.
Jesse then cleared their throat again to get rid of the awkward silence. "We ran into each other while I was looking for Reuben."

Olivia then looked down at the small pig and noticed the small black eye that formed. "Poor Reuben -- what happened to his eye?" Olivia asked with a worried tone and a sympathetic look as she looked down at the small pink creature. Jesse then sighed with a little bit of a guilty look as they were reminded of the attack that happened to Reuben. "We had a little run-in with some zombies. They whacked him pretty good, but Reuben held his own." Jesse said with a small sad smile as they looked down at Reuben as he nodded with a small oink coming out of his mouth.
Axel then looked over at Petra and Blair who looked away from the four. Blair was playing with her hair as she swirled it around her finger. Petra was humming a little as she tapped her foot on the ground quietly to herself. "What were you two doing in the woods?"

Blair and Petra then looked over to him and Petra then spoke up before Blair could comment. "Nothing. Just... drawn by the sound of Jesse's high-pitched screams." Petra chuckled with a grin on her face. Blair giggled at Petra's response a small smile forming on Blair's lips.
"I would've bled to death and been spider-bait if they hadn't found me!" Jesse commented with a look of relief and thankfulness as Jesse looked at the two sisters.

Axel then sighed and looked back at the Rainbow beacon with displeasure in his tone. "I gotta admit, I'm pretty bummed they won... again." Olivia nodded at Axel's comment with disappointment as she furrowed her eyebrows as she glanced back at the wonderful machine. "I mean, there's no way we were going to let go after Reuben by yourself, but.. it's okay to be a little disappointed, right?"

Jesse then responded to the two's sad attitudes. "Cheer up, guys! We'll get 'em next year! I can feel it!" Olivia then looked over to Jesse with an uncertain look. " I dunno, Jesse.."
"The spirit is willing, but the flesh is sad." Axel responded to Jesse's comment earlier. Petra then shook her head and cleared her throat. "Hey, if at first you don't succeed... then, uh, succeed later than originally planned." Petra then leaned over to Jesse and then she whispered in their ear. 

"Hey, Jesse. It's time to go see about that.. thing."
Blair overheard this and rolled her eyes. She knew it was probably another trade Petra was going to do. She then looked away as she watched the swirl of colors from the beacon change every few seconds. Jesse then responded to Petra's comment and spoke out loud with a little bit of a quiet tone. "Oh, right, The 'thing'!"
Olivia then spoke out with a normal tone. "Subtle.. As a punch to the face. Axel and I were gonna head into Endercon anyway. See you in there?" Olivia asked as she put one hand on her hip. "I heard somebody saying there's free cake by the map booth!" Axel said with excitement and hunger rushing to his head. Olivia rolled her eyes a little and the two walked off. Blair then walked off and she tilted her head towards Petra. "Bye Petra. I'll be by the cosplay center."
Petra waved bye to Blair and then she turned her attention to Jesse once Blair was fully out of sight. 

"Hurry. we're supposed to meet in the alley over there." Petra announced to Jesse as she pointed at the dark alleyway between two houses. Jesse then asked a small question as they noticed Blair walking off. "Why isn't Blair coming with us?"
"She doesn't like hanging out with me when I do those kinds of trades.. and plus I don't want her with me. She might piss off one of the traders. Now come on let's get over there before I'm late."
