[IC] The Orphanage for the Unusual

[KatherinWinter]

"That's better." Katherin said as she sat on the warm sand. She looked at the blue sky. She loved looking at things. It amazed her how much color the world had in it. It was sad that she could only see it in dreams, but Katherin didn't mind. She loved that she could give her friends wonderful dreams.

Kyo sat down in the sand and started building a castle. The beach was pretty perfect, more or less exactly what someone would want to see at a beach from what he could see. He wondered whether Katherin had actually seen this specific beach before or had built it from her favorite parts of the beach related dreams she had seen.

Cenhelm ran towards the water, and started to float.

The morning started with the housekeeper ring the bell for breakfast.

Myra got up and quickly took some allergy medicine before heading downstairs and smiling at the housekeeper. "How are you?"

[KatherinWinter]

"I am fine. The housekeeper snapped. " Please be seated. I want to get breakfast started so we can began the activity of the day."

[CallaLily180]

Myra laughed and sat down politely. "Whats for breakfast? Do you ever need help in the kitchen?"

[KatherinWinter]

"No thank you. Today we will be eating eggs,sausage, and hash browns." The housekeeper announced as she left the room.

Katherin chuckled as she entered the dinning room. "Isn't she friendly this morning."

[CallaLily180]

Myra waved at Katherin and smiled. "Hello, how are you this fine morning?"

[KatherinWinter]

"Not to bad. Trying to figure out how I can help with the scavenger hunt." Katherin replies as she takes her seat.

[CallaLily180]

"You can walk around and pretend to look for stuff all the while spying on the other teams?" Myra shook her head and smiled brightly. "Or you can just look awesome."

Kyo woke up at the sound of the bell and hurried to get ready. He left his hair untied today, but stuck the tie in his pocket along with a few peppermints just in case he needed them. After finishing up and strapping the bell back on his wrist, he walked quickly down the stairs and into the dining room for breakfast, nodding a "Hello" to the girls who had already arrived.

[KatherinWinter]

Katherin shook her head at Myra's odd suggestions. She wouldn't be much help. But she would be along to complicate things.

---

Liz dressed in pants. Something she rarely wore. She didn't know where today would take them and she wanted the ability to move freely. Liz headed downstairs to eat.

---

Roxy didn't want to participate in the scavenger hunt. But she knew refusing would only encourage the housekeeper to keep her knives. Maybe if she cooperate, the housekeeper would give them back.

Cenhelm woke up to the ring of the bell. He stayed in bed for a few minutes before getting up. He saw that some people were already there. He sat down and started eating.

Myra looked at the paper and nodded, she looked back up at the housekeeper with a small smile. "What are the teams?"

[KatherinWinter]

"I've decided there isn't enough of you to divide up into teams. I would rather you all work together to get this accomplished." The housekeeper explained.

[CallaLily180]

Myra laughed and shook her head. "OK ma'am."

[xiledx]

"So when do we start?" Cenhelm asked.

[YamiCuoreLaroux]

Kyo stared at the list. There was a lot to find, and he had no clue how to find some of it, but at least they would not have to search individually. It would definitely be easier with everyone helping. He turned his attention back to the housekeeper in case she had any more instructions.
