"I'm bored," Sagittarius whined. He walked into the living room and flopped onto the couch. Virgo, who was sitting on the couch, frowned at him.

"Get off of me," he pushed Sagi's head off his lap.

"Rude," Sagi mumbled as he dramatically fell of the of couch.

"And everyone tells me that I'm the drama queen," Leo rolled her eyes. The Archer opened his mouth to protest, but was cut off when suddenly Aquarius and Capricorn rushed into the room.

"There you guys are! We were waiting for you," Pisces said happily.

"I was hoping you'd show up so you could shut up Sagittarius," Aries smirked.

"Hey!"

"Anyways," Capricorn ignored the other signs, "Aqua and I found a letter containing information about a scavenger hunt."

"Ooh! I love scavenger hunts!" Cancer exclaimed.

"What did the letter say?" Taurus asked. Aquarius cleared her throat.

"Dear Zodiacs,

It's come to my attention that you're looking for something to do, so I have put together a scavenger hunt. You'll be grouped in teams based on element. Aries, Leo, and Sagittarius are Fire Signs. Taurus, Virgo, and Capricorn are Earth Signs. Gemini, Libra, and Aquarius are Air Signs. Cancer, Scorpio, and Pisces are Water Signs. You will compete against the other teams to find all four element stones. They are hidden across the city. When you find all them, bring them all back to the house in the living room. The first group to find all the stones and get back here will win a valuable prize. Good luck!" she read.

"I wonder who sent this..." Virgo wondered.

"Who cares?" Aries interjected. "All that matters is that the Fire Signs are going to win! We're the most awesome!" Leo and Sagittarius cheered and high-fived. Capricorn scoffed and rolled her eyes.

"Oh really? All of you are idiots. You'll end up getting yourselves lost," she retorted. Taurus nodded in agreement.

"We have Capricorn and Virgo. They're the smartest and most logical out of all of us. Earth is going to win," he stated.

"Yeah, but logic doesn't always work. We have an unpredictable Aquarius," Gemini argued. Libra snickered as Aquarius gave an embarrassed smile.

"It is true," Aquarius blushed.

"Air is going to win!" Libra shouted.

"You're all airheads," Scorpio muttered as she smiled darkly.

"Scorpi is right. Water for the win!" Cancer exclaimed.

"I guess we'll all have to settle this once and for all," Virgo stated.

"What does the first clue say?" Pisces asked.

"Um, I'm not sure where it is," Aquarius admitted.

"This is exactly why you're not going to win," Leo smirked.

"Shut it," Gemini snapped.

"Oh, there it is," Aquarius said as she flipped the paper over. "Your adventures begin where plants live within."

"Let the scavenger hunt begin," Capricorn grinned.

"May the best element win!"
