 "I keep falling into the stream." A kid whined.

"Hmph. It's because you're rushing." Ray commented.

"Huh?" The kid grunted softly, turning around to face Ray.

"Think what you can do to get away." Ray said, stuffing his hands into his pockets., "Norman isn't going to over-look any details."

"Check the wind. Find which way is easier to run." Ray informed Don.

Don nodded and ran back into the forest, following Ray's advice.

Don nodded and ran back into the forest, following Ray's advice.

"Maybe I can even beat Norm--" Thoma started.

Norman placed a hand on Thoma's shoulder.

[Y/N] watched Thoma run into the forest and Norman following from a distance. Stealthy.

A few minutes later, [Y/N] watched Thoma 

"And I thought I was doing so good!" Thoma said, sitting down at the tree with [Y/N] and Ray.

"You are doing good. You can last a lot longer than before." [Y/N] assured Thoma.

"Tch," Ray scoffed, "You can't just focus on your own footprints Thoma. You have to check for Norman's."

"Really?" Thoma said.

"Yeah. Also Norman is reading your habits." Ray replied, "As for example..."

Ray and [Y/N] looked past Thoma's head, straight at Sister Krone. [Y/N] narrowed her eyes.

"We're back!" Emma called out, returning with all of the kids.

[Y/N] nodded and turned her head back to Sister Krone who was making her way over to them.

"Playing tag looks like fun." Sister Krone said, giving them a creepy smile., "And I want to get along with everyone. So may I join in?"

[Y/N] glanced at the others, "It would be a much more realistic experience, wouldn't it?"

"Hm." Ray said, looking up at Krone, "Why not?"

Krone gave them a wide and creepy smile, "The match time limit will be 20 minutes. I'll be it. Make sure to get away from me everyone."

Ten seconds later

[Y/N] glanced back up at Sister Krone, "So how will the enemy move?"

"Hm. Looks like she'll come for us first." Norman replied.

"And she'll take out the younger and slower ones on the way." Ray added.

"Seems reasonable." [Y/N] said.

They split up, [Y/N] and Ray going left. Norman going right if you really have to know.

"She's fast." [Y/N] commented.

"Mhm." Ray replied, crouching into a place they could watch Krone.

"Why isn't she coming after us?" Emma wondered aloud, yet quietly.

"Did she change her strategy?" Ray asked Norman.

Norman didn't reply, studying Krone.

"What are these?" A bunch of little kids asked each other, bunching up.

"Hm." [Y/N] grunted, getting a closer look.

Leaves with shapes in the middle. Hearts, stars, circles.
